《Mohist Tang》


 Chapter 1

    Merton is an aspiring young man in the 20th century. Although his family is poor, he is rooted in Miao Hong. He came from three generations of poor and lower middle peasants, commonly known as poor loser.


    However, this did not hinder Merton''s pursuit of progress. He decided to start from scratch and strive to make a fortune of $5 million.


    Today is the moment when he decides success or failure. Merton has been in front of a bank for a long time. He has stepped on this place several times. It is safe around and there is little traffic.


    Merton lowered his hat brim, touched the things in his pocket, and ruthlessly walked into a shop next to the bank.


    "Boss! Have a two-color ball."


    Merton took out two one dollar coins and lined up in front of the shopkeeper.


    "Draw the prize tonight. Good luck."


    The boss skillfully printed out a lottery ticket and handed it to Merton with a smile.


    As night fell, it was nine twenty in the twinkling of an eye.


    Merton refreshed his mobile phone again and again, waiting for the results of the lottery, and his five million fortune fought here.


    Every time the prize is opened, Merton is in the most painful time. It''s cruel to watch him lose $5 million. No, it''s $5 million.


    But for his dream, he must bear these pains.


    "Ding Ling!"


    A pop-up window of the lottery app appears and the winning information is released.


    "No"


    In an instant, a sad cry came out of the rental house,


    "My five million two dollars!"


    At the same time, the land of China is full of strong resentment, and there are tens of millions of grievances. These thousands of grievances are not known to be pulled by some mysterious force, but coagulate and do not disperse. They converge into a mysterious pattern in the sky. After flashing several times, the mysterious pattern disappears in an instant.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton felt a splitting headache and wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn''t open them.


    In the dark, scenes of light and shadow flashed in my mind, as if in a dream, and it was very real.


    In this dream, he became a man of the Tang Dynasty. His father''s name was mo lie. He was a child of the Mohist School and the leader of Li Shimin''s magic camp. In the process of Li Tang''s unification of the world, Mo lie opened mountains and built bridges in the face of water. He rushed to the front line every time, repeatedly letting Li Shimin seize the first opportunity in the war and made great contributions.


    Unfortunately, Mo lie''s fortune was shallow. After the Tang Dynasty unified the world, he failed to enjoy glory and wealth. After years of war, he was hurt too much. Unfortunately, he died young and left a short County hou to Merton, a guy with the same name and surname.


    "No." Merton woke up suddenly.


    How can this feeling be so clear? It''s just my own experience.


    Merton suddenly sat up and pulled off the sheet covering his head. He was stunned by the scene in front of him.


    The rental house he used to live in has disappeared, but has been replaced by a classical room, wooden door, wooden bed, wooden window and wooden room.


    In other words, the style of this room is very, uh, very Chinese!


    Merton''s IQ was a little anxious. Everything in front of him was strange and familiar. Scenes of memory flashed in front of him. The scene in the dream clearly appeared in his memory, like two souls constantly overlapping in front of him and finally integrated into one.


    "Did I really cross to the Tang Dynasty?" Merton had an extravagant desire rising in his heart.


    How could this be possible? Merton was trembling with excitement. He couldn''t believe it. He lost 5 million Liang, but he won the biggest prize in the universe.


    He crossed to the Tang Dynasty and became a declining aristocrat in the Zhenguan period.


    Looking at his very similar face in the bronze mirror, Merton still seemed to be dreaming.


    After a long time, Merton finally calmed down and settled down. Moreover, he came to the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which is one of the greatest times of the whole Chinese nation. It doesn''t seem to be a bad thing.


    It seems that in order to confirm Merton''s conjecture, the door squeaked, and a 15-year-old girl in purple pushed the door in. In Merton''s memory, she was Merton''s personal servant girl. She loved to wear clothes with purple patterns, so she was named purple.


    Purple clothes grew up with Merton when he was a child. It''s a pity that Merton paid attention to the beautiful women in Chang''an City and didn''t care about the purple clothes around him.


    According to Merton''s current thinking, Ziyi has at least 80 points. On the premise that she has not grown up, it will also be a disaster to the country and the people in a few years.


    Having picked up a title for nothing and now being served by a beautiful maid, Merton''s happy life seems to have begun.


    However, Merton''s dream was mercilessly shattered by purple before he held the * * * clock.


    "Young master, it''s bad. Uncle Li has come to the door of the ink house. Hide quickly, or you''ll be beaten again!" Ziyi said flustered.


    "Beaten?" Merton was suddenly covered with black lines. At the same time, the terrible memories of second uncle Li flooded into his heart.


    "Once, twice,... Many times."


    Forget it, I can''t count it.


    "Don''t talk nonsense. Uncle Li hurts me so much. How can he be willing to beat me?" Merton said with a dry smile, but his body shivered honestly.


    "Young master, you forget that our Mojia village has suffered a large area of disaster this year, and the grain production has been reduced by half. Everyone is waiting for you to go to Chang''an city to get the Lord''s sacrifice through the difficulties? But you have lost all your money? Uncle Li probably knows this." Ziyi said with worry on his face.


    "Er!"


    Merton remembered the whole story from his messy memory. Merton''s Lao Tzu died early and didn''t leave much money for him at all.


    In addition, some soldiers who followed Mo lie retired and settled in Mojia village, resulting in a sharp increase in the population of Mojia village.


    They are the children of the Mohist school. They are not born to deal with Confucianism. The officials in charge of knighthood secretly do evil and directly regard these 1000 households as the food city of mohlie, resulting in that mohlie''s title is not the highest, but he is indeed the only real Lord of the 1000 households of the food city among all the ministers.


    Although it is a good thing to have a large number of people, the awarded fields are secretly spoiled by people. In this era, the grain yield is low. Mojia village is close to shibie Valley, with low-lying terrain and frequent drought and flood disasters. It is a typical saline alkali land, and the output of crops is very low. In addition, this year is a disaster year, which is even worse, Grain production has been greatly reduced, and it is simply unable to support the food of more than 1000 households.


    All the hopes of Mojia village depend on the salary Merton received from Chang''an City for food, but after Merton met a group of friends in Chang''an City, the general squandered the salary and returned drunk.


    "Merton, you black sheep, come out!" there was a roar outside the room. When he heard this familiar voice, Merton''s heart trembled. This was Li Yi, his father''s deputy


    , after the death of Mo lie, the whole Mojia village was re managed by Li Yi, including Merton.


    Since the death of Mo lie, Li Yi has been particularly strict with him. At ordinary times, he is the most afraid of Mo lie.


    "Brother Li, calm down. The young master is still young. There is no need to be so angry." Uncle Fu''s voice came.


    Uncle Fu is also an old man in the magic camp, but he retired because of injury. Later, he became the housekeeper of the Mohist School and was loyal to the Mohist school.


    "Brother Fu, don''t stop me. I must teach this smelly boy a lesson today. He joked about the lives of the whole village and squandered all his salary."


    "Young master, what should I do? Now that second master Li knows, he will punish you. Go and hide quickly!" Ziyi said anxiously.


    According to past experience, Merton must have run as far as he can. He will come back after Li Yiqi disappears.


    But Merton was no longer the weak boy before. This time he didn''t escape, but sorted out his clothes, opened the door and went out.


    "Young master!" Ziyi exclaimed, and hurriedly followed out worried.


    Outside the door, a clothes were washed white, and the thin middle-aged man was rushing in. Fuber tried to persuade and stop him again. When they saw Merton walking out of the door, they were stunned.


    "Uncle Fu, second uncle!"


    Merton took a cold breath, puffed out bursts of white smoke, and greeted him like normal.


    Until Merton bowed, the two suddenly separated.


    "Young master!" replied Fubo.


    "Smelly boy, do you know how much trouble you''re in now?" Li Yi angrily said. The commandment in his hand was held high, but it didn''t come down.


    Because he saw that Merton seemed a little different. Merton was trembling at him in the past, but now Merton was very calm and had no previous panic and cowardice.


    "Second uncle, don''t you know? The food price in Chang''an City has increased by 50%. With that salary, it''s a drop in the bucket and can''t feed thousands of people in Mojia village." Merton said.


    "We can''t squander it wantonly. At least some of the grain can have more hope," Li Yi said angrily.


    Fuber opened his mouth, looked at Li Yi, looked at Merton, and finally sighed bitterly.


    Murray''s title is neither high nor low. Chang''an city is not conspicuous at all. When it was passed to Morton, it was reduced by one level. Only the county uncle was left, and his salary, which was not much, was reduced by another level.


    In addition, the population of Mojia village is so large that it was originally a real food town with thousands of households. After several years of living and raising interest, the population has soared a lot, and the food produced is not enough. Besides, those salaries were originally Merton''s, and now Merton has spent his money, what is his right to blame?


    For a moment, Li Yi was silent, and his heart was full of bitterness. At the thought that thousands of people in the village were short of clothes and food, it was October, and how they would spend the cold winter. Li Yi was in great pain, but then a voice made him look up in amazement.


    "Since it''s my fault, I''ll make up for it. I promise no villagers will starve or freeze to death this winter," Merton said solemnly.


    "Now I want to know how poor Mojia village is!"

 Chapter 2

    How poor is Mojia village!


    As long as you inquire, you will understand that every village around and everyone mentions Mojia village has only one impression, poor!


    "Don''t marry a daughter in Mojia village, but rather throw it in the riverside" has become a local famous saying. Anyone who can live well is unwilling to let his daughter marry in Mojia village to suffer poverty and suffering.


    Therefore, women in Mojia village get married every year, but it is rare for men in Mojia village to get married. Over time, the whole Mojia village hoards a large number of singles.


    But hearing is one thing, seeing is another.


    Under the leadership of Uncle Li and uncle Fu, Merton saw the real Mojia village. A bumpy dirt road ran through the whole village. The road was full of villagers'' domestic sewage, black and smelling. On both sides of the road are low thatched houses. A bleak autumn wind blows, driving many thatched grass flying in the sky.


    An old man with gray hair rushed out of the room and wanted to catch up with the blown grass, but he watched the grass fly higher and higher, finally gave up, and finally scolded and returned to the house.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton exhaled solemnly and said, "let''s go!"


    Walking along the bumpy path, Fubo and Li Yi looked at each other and followed closely behind Merton.


    "There are 960 households and 512 people in Mojia village. This is your uncle Wang''s family. Uncle Wang used to be the Lord''s personal guard. He was a first-class hero in the divine work camp."


    Fuber pointed to a thin one armed old man in front of a thatched house.


    "Uncle Wang," Morton saluted respectfully.


    "Young master, you''re killing me!" one armed Uncle Wang quickly replied.


    "This is your uncle Yu. He is called Master Yu. Being a fish is unique. He was the leader of the gang in the army in those years. Today, the holy master ate Master Yu''s meal when he was in the army, which is full of praise." Li Yi pointed to a middle-aged man in his 40s in the nearby house.


    "Hello, master fish!" said Merton.


    "This is..."


    "This is..."


    Introducing the past one by one, Merton greeted one by one.


    It is said that the young master came out to inspect the village. Many villagers rushed out of their homes and scrambled to watch and greet each other.


    "Hello, young master!"


    "Little Lord!"


    "Little sir!"


    ¡­¡­


    Although the greetings are different, everyone respects Merton from the bottom of his heart. After all, Merton takes out his salary to relieve the Mojia village every year. Although Mojia village is the poorest village in dozens of miles, it is the most united.


    In addition, Mohist advocates universal love for all living beings, and the whole village helps each other. No matter how big a disaster year, Mohist village has never starved to death.


    Merton looked at the villagers'' respectful eyes and couldn''t help getting sour, because he found that many villagers didn''t have a complete dress, and most of them were wearing old patches repeatedly,


    And now it is winter. Many villagers are still wearing single clothes. Everyone is yellow and skinny, and their eyes reveal sadness.


    What''s more sad is that a group of men came out, and few young women. There are too many singles in Mojia village.


    "How many men in Mojia village didn''t get married?" Merton asked in a low voice.


    "351 people over the age of 18 have not been married. From six years of Wude to last year, a total of 20 families have been married in Mojia village, and none of the villagers have been married this year!" Li Yi sobbed with tears.


    "Mojia village is so poor that all families who can make a living don''t want their daughter to suffer in Mojia village." Fubo sighed.


    Merton was silent, and an energy was rising in his heart. These villagers were the soldiers who fought with his father in all directions. They were all his father''s brothers. Many people were brothers who grew up and played with him.


    Now these people are living in deep water. Merton feels it necessary to change the current situation of Mojia village.


    He wants to make the villagers of Mojia village live a happy life. He wants to make Mojia village a rich village in the world. This can not help but be the afterthought of this body, but also his responsibility as a present person.


    Thinking of this, Merton was full of passion and stepped on a big stone pier.


    "Uncles and uncles, brothers, you have suffered!" Merton bowed and apologized to the villagers.


    "Little Lord, don''t do it!" the villagers immediately urged. In their impression, it is when they salute the young master. There is no time when the young master salutes them.


    "Young master, you can''t do it!" Li Yi and Fu Bo also advised one after another.


    Rao was persuaded by the villagers again and again. Merton still got up after three breaths and looked up at the dense villagers in front of him. Merton looked up slightly. All the villagers stopped all their actions and stared at Merton.


    "Mojia village is very poor! Very poor!"


    "Mojia village is full of disasters and disasters every year."


    "The men in Mojia village can''t marry their daughter-in-law, and the women in other villages don''t want to marry. They''re afraid of hardship!"


    Merton''s voice grew louder and angrier.


    Every word, the heads of the villagers in Mojia village are one point lower. This is the pain of Mojia village. Many people are full of pain and tears, but no one cries.


    "But none of these can defeat the villagers of our Mojia village. All the elders were heroes who followed our father''s army all his life, and other brothers were good brothers who grew up with us.


    Merton paused, looked at the head gradually raised by the villagers and said in a high voice: "today, I Merton stand here and promise you that from now on, the Mojia village will not suffer from hunger and cold. Every brother in the village can marry a daughter-in-law. In my lifetime, I want to make the Mojia village the richest village in the whole Tang Dynasty."


    No longer hungry or cold, can you marry a daughter-in-law and become the richest village in Datang?


    Is that possible? You know, they are now the poorest village.


    Seeing the villagers'' disbelief, Merton felt a pain in his heart. He knew that these things were things they had never dared to think about.


    He doesn''t expect the villagers to believe him right now, because all this depends on the facts.


    Merton looked at everyone and said solemnly, "I know the road is long and difficult, but I will work side by side with my uncles, uncles, brothers and sisters. I promise that if you have a meal from the Mohist house, you will not be hungry. You will not only have to go through the most difficult period of the Mohist village, but also have a better life than others."


    "Young master benevolence and righteousness, I just give up this old bone and fight with the young master!" Li Yi suddenly shouted. Now the Mojia village is at a critical juncture. The young master can wake up in time and lead everyone through the difficulties. That''s the spirit of the old Sir.


    "The general is loyal, the young master is benevolent and righteous, and my old fish will work with the young master." the fish Master said heavily.


    "My old Fu follows the young master too!" Fu Bo also stands up.


    "After fighting, we''ll work with the young master."


    "Fight! How poor can you be?"


    "Yes, maybe we can fight another world."


    More and more people began to respond. Merton looked at these people. His eyes were no longer confused and painful. What he took was hope, and he couldn''t help nodding secretly.


    Merton stretched out his hand, and everyone immediately calmed down and stared at him.


    "Now I''m going to issue a task, Fubo! Count the grain in the house immediately and relieve some villagers who can''t open the pot first," Merton ordered Fubo.


    "Yes, old slave," replied fuber.


    Merton looked at Li Yi again and said: "Uncle Li, you should immediately organize people to repair all the roads in the village. Some villagers'' houses are badly damaged. You should immediately organize people to repair them. Some villagers'' houses can no longer live. They should be placed in the house. After you allocate the specific wages, let them go to the house to find uncle Fu. You can ask for money and food."


    "Young master, benevolence and righteousness! We build roads and houses for ourselves. How can we let the young master pay again? Everyone says yes or no!" Li Yi shouted to the villagers.


    "Yes, we work for ourselves. How can we make the young master pay?"


    "Young master, now most of our families still have grain, which can support some time."


    ¡°¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The villagers are very simple and say one after another.


    "Then write it down first. When Mojia village is well-off in the future, you can make compensation to everyone. If you need it, you can withdraw it immediately," Merton said.


    From later generations, he knows that the passion of big pot can''t last long, and a steady stream of income is the driving force of people''s struggle.


    Li Yi thought for a moment. This is indeed a way. After all, some families do have difficulties.


    "Young master, wise!" Li Yi was convinced. He thought Merton was a whim. Now it seems that the villagers of Mojia village are full of fighting spirit and may really succeed under Merton''s leadership.


    Thinking of this, Li Yi became more energetic and shouted, "those in the east come here and follow Lao Wang to repair the road, while those in the West follow me to repair the house."


    "All right!"


    The villagers immediately responded.


    From the beginning to the end, they never doubted whether Merton had the ability to lead them to wealth, but they never thought what a brilliant road they would embark on.

 Chapter 3

    "Well, now let me see how much property there is in Mojia village."


    In Mo mansion, Merton took a deep breath and said to Fubo who had just delivered food to the villagers.


    Anyone can say heroic words, but when you really want to take action, you will find many difficulties.


    Merton has many ideas that can make money, but a clever woman can''t make bricks without rice. All actions need to be based on the actual situation of Mojia village,


    It is not so easy to find a project that can make a lot of money and benefit all 5000 people in Mojia village.


    "Young master! Here is the list you want!" fuber handed over a thin piece of paper.


    Ten fish ponds, an abandoned kiln, and only 10000 kilograms of grain left in the ink house. There is also a salted fish shop in Chang''an City, which is the only wealth of Mojia village.


    Merton frowned. These things seem to be a lot, but considering that more than 5000 people in thousands of families in Mojia village are crying for food, these things are not enough. According to the estimation of normal expenditure, Mojia village will run out of ammunition and food and get into trouble in less than a month.


    After a while, Li Yi also entered the hall, looked at Forbes, and waited quietly for Merton, who was thinking hard.


    "No, neither!" Merton shook his head,


    Merton thought for several times and was denied. It''s not that these businesses don''t make money. Any business can make a person rich in a short time. However, there are more than 5000 people in Mojia village, and it''s useless not to benefit everyone in Mojia village.


    Fubo and Li Yi also frowned one by one and fell into deep distress.


    "It seems that there is only one last way!" Li Yi said after a long time.


    "What?" Merton looked up.


    "You mean kaitang?" fuber suddenly looked up.


    "Open the pond?" Merton asked suspiciously.


    "No!" fuber shook his head.


    "That''s the capital of our Mojia village. Once we open the pond, there will be nothing at the bottom of the box!" Fubo shook his head and denied.


    "But this is also the only way." Li Yi said sadly.


    After the debate between Fubo and Li Yi, Merton finally knew that the focus of their debate was the ten fish ponds in Mojia village.


    These ten fish ponds are the magic weapon for Mojia village to tide over difficulties every year. Whenever it is in the most difficult time, these ten fish ponds will be opened in turn. The oldest fish pond has not been opened for five years.


    "Then open the pond!" interrupted Merton.


    "The little Lord doesn''t know. Every year, when the pond is opened in Mojia village, he can often get through the difficulties. Now..." Fubo sighed and lowered his head.


    "What''s the matter now?" Merton frowned and wondered.


    "The young master doesn''t know. It''s too early to open the pond now. If you open the pond now, you''ll open all ten fish ponds, and you won''t be able to support the villagers'' two-month rations." Li Yi said sadly.


    "And now the weather hasn''t snowed, and the salted fish is not easy to preserve. If they can''t be sold in time, they will all fall into their hands," fuber added.


    "Moreover, now the price of salt is high, and buying salt alone is a large expense..."


    "Wait!"


    Merton felt that his brain was not enough and hurriedly interrupted Forbes'' nagging.


    "Sell salted fish!" Merton looked at them strangely and asked, "why do we sell salted fish and why don''t we take live fish to Chang''an City?"


    As soon as he blurted out his words, Merton knew he seemed to have said something wrong, because Fubo and Li Yi looked at him like fools.


    Fortunately, Ziyi took care of Merton''s face and explained: "young master, the Mojia village is 50 miles away from Chang''an city. It takes at least two hours to walk. The fish from the pond have been transported to Chang''an city. The fish have died. They can''t sell at a good price. It''s better to make salted fish."


    "Ziyi, what you said is very true!" Li Yi nodded.


    "What about fish in other villages?" Merton asked.


    "The same is true in other villages. Only the fish raised in several villages near Chang''an city can be transported to Chang''an City and still alive, but once those live fish arrive in Chang''an City, they have been robbed for a long time, which is much higher than the price of our dead fish!" Ziyi said.


    "Live fish, the price is very expensive?" Merton suddenly stood up and stared at purple clothes.


    Ziyi nodded and said, "of course, live fish is specially supplied to those high doors and big valves. Ordinary people can''t grab it at all. The price alone has more than tripled, and there is a price without a market. They are robbed when they come late."


    "Hahaha! Get rich! Get rich!" Merton seemed to be crazy, pacing back and forth in the hall, dancing.


    "Wow!" a glass of cold water suddenly poured on Merton''s head.


    "What are you doing?" Merton angrily touched the water on his head and stared at the purple clothes with an empty tea cup.


    But Ziyi was not afraid at all. Instead, she took a big sigh of relief, patted the small-scale chest and relaxed her airway: "I thought the young master was crazy. It has nothing to do with us to make money again. Mojia village is too far from Chang''an City?"


    Ignoring the girl who was a little middle two, Merton shook off the tea on his head, smiled strangely at Fubo and Li Yi and said, "what if I can make the fish live after entering Chang''an City?"


    "What? It''s impossible!" Fubo and Li Yi suddenly raised their heads and looked at Merton incredulously, but their eyes had some hope that if the Mojia village could transport live fish into Chang''an City, 3000 people in the Mojia village would be saved.


    "Fish can''t live without water. If too many fish are pulled by waterwheel, they will die. These methods have been tried by others and can''t be transported to Chang''an city." the light of hope in Li Yi''s eyes slowly extinguished and shook his head.


    Merton said excitedly, "that''s why we can make a fortune! I have a way to make the fish entering Chang''an city alive."


    "Really?" asked fuber, looking straight at Merton with a hopeful face.


    "Yes, yes!" Merton nodded. "But we need to make some tools. If there are fish, we can experiment tonight!"


    "How to experiment!" fuber hurriedly asked.


    Merton explained: "first fill the waterwheel in the house with water, and when the tools I need are made, put the fish into the waterwheel, and you can see the still living fish early tomorrow morning."


    Mo mansion is also a big family. There are water tankers at home to prevent fire disasters. This water tanker has made great contributions to several fires at home.


    "Lao Zhang tou used to be a great craftsman in the army. I''ll find him now and make tools now!" Li Yi said as he ran out.


    Fubo didn''t fall behind him. After running out with Li Yi, the voice came from the outer wall: "I''ll find the old fish and ask him to fish in the pond."


    "Young master, I''ll go to the waterwheel!" Ziyi looked at the young master with tea and ran away.


    Only Merton looked at his wet clothes and smiled bitterly.

 Chapter 4

    Uncle Li didn''t lie at all. Lao Zhang tou was indeed a great craftsman in the army. He couldn''t say his craft was good.


    After Merton said his request again, Lao Zhang could make it accurately. Sometimes Lao Zhang could even think of problems that Merton didn''t think of.


    "Young master! It''s done!" Lao Zhang put an unknown glue on it, sealed it and put it on the table.


    Suddenly a group of heads surrounded him.


    A thing like a small drum, a rocker is installed on one side of the round surface, and a long leather pipe is installed at the end. Merton can fill the long pipe below with air with a gentle shake, and then press it out from the end of the pipe to feel the gas running out from the end of the pipe. Merton nodded with satisfaction.


    "That''s good? This thing can keep the fish alive!" Li Yi said with a questioning face.


    "Of course! If you don''t believe it, you can see it tomorrow." Merton looked at the simple manual oxygen supply machine in his hand and was very proud.


    Oxygen supply machines are common in the fish market in the future. They are not rare at all, and they are all electric belts, saving time and effort. However, the oxygen supply machine made by Merton needs to be manually operated, which is a lot of trouble, but it is an epoch-making product here. With this oxygen supply machine, let alone transporting fish into Chang''an City, there is nothing to raise fish for a year and a half.


    "Thanks Uncle Zhang this time." Merton said gratefully. Without this great craftsman in the army, Merton would be full of ideas and could not make an oxygen supply machine.


    "The young master killed me. Although I don''t know how the young master learned this method, I have a hunch that I will succeed this time!" said Lao Zhang tou.


    "Seriously?"


    Everyone was very happy. Lao Zhang tou was a great craftsman in the army. Even in the military bureau with many experts, Lao Zhang tou was also one of the best experts. Now what Merton seemed to be fooling around could be affirmed by Lao Zhang tou, and everyone had a little more confidence.


    "It all depends on Uncle Zhang''s old craft!" Merton said.


    "But this method seems magical, but everyone just didn''t think of it. If someone knows its principle, they can copy it. At that time, the advantages of our Mojia village will be gone. I hope Uncle Zhang will keep it secret."


    "Don''t worry, young master. I am also a member of Mojia village, which is related to the survival of thousands of people in Mojia village. Even if I fight for my life, I will keep this prescription. I will build the device in it by myself and won''t give it to anyone. Even if someone puts a knife on my neck, I won''t reveal anything." Lao Zhang promised loudly.


    "Uncle Zhang can''t do it. If he really gets there, Uncle Zhang is still important. In the nephew''s mind, even this prescription is not as important as Uncle Zhang. There is no prescription. I have other methods. If Uncle Zhang makes any mistakes, I will regret for life." Merton said solemnly.


    "The young master is serious." Lao Zhang tou was moved. The craftsman''s position in this era is very low, even if Lao Zhang Tou is a big craftsman in the army. Now Merton would rather lose this prescription that can create huge wealth and keep him. How can he not be moved.


    "Boo!" Li Yi suddenly stood up and said in a loud voice, "don''t worry, young master. It''s not easy to provoke our Mojia village. If someone dares to offend Mojia village, I''ll let him come and never get back."


    Li Yi''s anger flared, and a fierce murderous spirit filled the air, as if the fierce general who had killed seven in and seven out in the army had returned.


    Indeed, Mojia village is the descendants of the soldiers who retired from the army. The wind of martial arts is prevalent. They have never lost a fight with the people in the surrounding villages.


    It can be said that the reputation of Mojia village is not good, partly because it is poor and partly because it is fierce.


    Ziyi had never seen Li Yi so fierce, and her head shrank with fear.


    "Uncle Li, stop your anger!" Merton shouted quickly to calm Li Yi''s anger.


    "Young master, forgive me. I''ve lost my manners!" Li Yi was frightened and apologized again and again.


    Then a loud cry came.


    "Young master, the fish is coming!" Fu Bo''s voice came loudly from the house.


    "Teng!"


    Everyone stood up and a glimmer of expectation flashed in their eyes. It was time to test Merton''s words. If it could succeed, there would be hope for the whole Mojia village.


    A waterwheel pulled in four young people from the village. The fish master walked in front and the commander parked the waterwheel.


    Ziyi jumped the most. He rushed up for the first time and stretched out his head to see the fish, but found that the waterwheel had been closed.


    "Uncle Yu! Open it quickly!" Ziyi Jiao said.


    "Young master!" the fish Master said hello, waved his hand, and four villagers came forward to open the waterwheel. "


    "So many fish!" the crowd stretched out their heads and couldn''t help exclaiming.


    There were at least 50 fish in the dark part of the waterwheel, each weighing about five kilograms. Because there were more fish and less water, the oxygen consumption in the water was almost the same. Many fish had begun to float their heads on the water and wanted to breathe more oxygen.


    "Young master, your method can really work. According to the past practice, if so many fish are concentrated in this waterwheel, they won''t live for half an hour." fuber said anxiously.


    Mojia village is very poor. If these fifty fish die for no reason, it will be a big loss.


    "Half an hour?" Merton smiled, touched the manual oxygen supply in his hand and said confidently, "leave two people. I promise you can see live fish tomorrow."


    Seeing Merton''s self-confidence, people were a little convinced that Merton really had the assurance of a living fish, and a glimmer of expectation flashed in their eyes.


    "Yuer, Li Xin! You two stay and follow the young master''s instructions!" Li Yi said, pointing to two young people in their twenties.


    "Yes!" they answered in unison.


    Yu Er is the second son of Master Yu. Li Xin is Li Yi''s eldest son. They have already learned the young master''s plan from their father. If they can really help the young master do this, they will benefit first. They are full of energy when they think of this.


    "Pushing the waterwheel into the side house will be the secret of our Mojia village. You two should keep your mouth shut about it. If outsiders know about it, the advantages of our Mojia village will disappear." Merton solemnly told the two people.


    "Don''t worry, young master. If they delay the event of Mojia village, I''ll clean up the door myself!" said Li Yi, staring at Li Xin fiercely. Li Xin subconsciously shivered. Merton thought of his own experience and couldn''t help looking at Li Xin sympathetically.


    The fish master also ordered his children.


    "Don''t worry, young master. We know that we will keep our mouth shut!" Li Xin said quickly.


    "Bang!"


    Merton took them into the side room and closed the door of the side room heavily, blocking everyone''s curious sight outside, including the curious purple dress. The girl couldn''t satisfy her curiosity and her little mouth was pouting.


    However, the more so, the more happy the old people like Li Yi are. Because Merton is so cautious, it shows that Merton attaches importance to it, which increases their confidence.


    Squeak! The door of the side room opened, Merton came out, and then heard the sound of locking inside.


    "Can you use the tools?" Lao Zhang asked nervously.


    Merton smiled and said in a loud voice, "the tools are used smoothly. You can see the fish still alive tomorrow."


    "Oh!" the crowd shouted happily.


    Hearing the thunder like cheers outside, Li Xin and Yu two in the side room looked at each other, accompanied by only the hula, Hula and bubble sound of the oxygen supply.


    I couldn''t help looking at the toy like things in my hand and wondering, "it''s so simple!"

 Chapter 5

    Ziyi suddenly became very diligent. Before dawn, she began to clean Merton''s room. Merton couldn''t sleep at all.


    Not only her, but also Fubo ordered those houses to be dangerous early in the morning to clean by the villagers living in Mo mansion.


    "Well, you go out! I''m going to get up!" Merton drove the purple clothes away angrily. She pretended to clean there and made a noise deliberately, which made Merton unable to sleep.


    "Yes! The young master got up!" Ziyi shouted happily and went to report the good news like a little magpie.


    Suddenly there was a panic outside, and then there was a sound of putting tools, and the whole ink house was immediately clean.


    "Yawn!" Merton rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned out of the door.


    "Hello, young master!" he was startled by a loud voice.


    Only then did he find that the whole Mo mansion was full of people. Not only that, but when Merton looked around, the outside of Huo mansion was also full of villagers.


    "Why are you so early!" Merton asked, looking at the white sky.


    "Young master." Fu Bo came up with a smiling face, "young master, you see, after your parents and villagers learned your method, they were very excited and wanted to know the results."


    "Yes! Young master, Li Xin, that smelly boy can''t open the door. I''m so angry." Li Yi said angrily.


    He wanted to know the result in advance because he was Lao Tzu. Unfortunately, Li Xin had been arranged by Merton in advance and could not disclose any information. It is conceivable that he was shut down, which made his old face a little uneasy.


    Merton looked at the villagers who heard the news. Each one contained expectant eyes, and without hesitation, he came directly to the side house.


    Li Yi took the lead and came to the door. He clapped the door loudly and shouted, "Li Xin, you smelly boy, open the door quickly. The young master has come!"


    For a long time, Li Xin''s helpless voice came from behind the door: "Dad, you''ve just used this move, so don''t lie to me!"


    "Ha ha!"


    The villagers burst out laughing and immediately made Li Yi blush.


    "Open the door quickly. It''s true this time. The young master is really coming!" Li Yi said angrily,


    "Li Xin, open the door!" Merton didn''t let Li Yi lose face again and said aloud.


    "Yes, young master!"


    When the side door opened, everyone''s eyes focused on the water tanker slowly pushed out,


    The waterwheel was pushed to the middle of the hospital. Li Yi couldn''t care to teach his son a lesson. He quickly surrounded him. The fish master on one side also quickly surrounded him and lay on the waterwheel to listen to the sound.


    "How''s it going?" Li Yi asked nervously?


    "There are live fish!" the fish Master said with certainty.


    "Live fish?"


    Everyone was excited. Could the young master''s method really succeed.


    But the fish master was not happy too early, because he was not sure how many fish could survive. If he lived too little, the gain would not be worth the loss.


    However, Merton, who had already prepared, smiled and said confidently, "turn on the waterwheel."


    Under everyone''s gaze, the waterwheel was slowly opened, and suddenly a strong fishy smell came to his face. But at this time, no one had a slightest dislike, especially the fish master was enjoying. Such a strong fishy smell showed that there were a lot of live fish.


    Li Yi rushed forward for the first time, lay down on the waterwheel and shouted, "how is it possible?"


    "What''s the matter?" the fish master leaned over to the waterwheel and stayed there, because all the fish swam around in the water, and there was no dead fish.


    Others also rushed forward, one by one stunned.


    "No dead fish!" Li Yi shouted loudly!


    "Oh!" the villagers were extremely excited!


    There are no dead fish. It has been at least six hours since last night. Six hours is enough to go back and forth from Mojia village to Chang''an city.


    That means how many fish you catch, you can transport these live fish to Chang''an City, and then their fish can sell at a good price.


    That means that they will no longer be hungry in Mojia village. That means that what the young master said before can be realized. With a spacious big house, everyone can marry a daughter-in-law.


    At this moment, everyone has no doubt about it. Everyone in Mojia village is excited. Even the ugliest villagers are confident that they can marry a daughter-in-law because they have a magical young master.


    "Young master, wise!"


    "Young master, wise!"


    Everyone shouted wildly at Merton, and even the purple clothes, who usually spoke softly, looked at Merton admiringly.


    Seeing all this, Merton knew that everything he did was not in vain. What a simple villager this is! They really don''t ask much. It''s enough to have enough to eat, wear warm clothes, build a house and marry a daughter-in-law.


    As for becoming the richest village in Datang, they can''t imagine it, but it has been deeply rooted in their minds.


    Li Yi has tears in his eyes. Today''s villagers of Mojia village remind him of the time when the old general was alive. At that time, Mojia village was the richest village in a radius of ten miles.


    But it''s not too late now. Li Yi believes that under the leadership of the young master, Mojia village will be able to reproduce the glory of that year!


    no Will be more brilliant.


    Unconsciously, everyone stopped and looked at Merton enthusiastically.


    Merton knew what he should do at the moment. He cleared his throat and said in a high voice, "Master Zhang, you should immediately organize people to build a waterwheel. Three days later, we will start sending fish to Chang''an city! It depends on how many fish you can carry."


    Lao Zhang responded and said, "don''t worry, young master. I promise I can build ten waterwheel in three days!"


    At the same time, he has understood Merton''s hint. It depends on him how many fish he can transport. Isn''t that the oxygen supply he needs to build? " Lao Zhang secretly nodded at Merton and shouted, "the carpenter in Mojia village will come with me!"


    "I can carpenter!"


    "I''ll come!"


    ¡­¡­


    The villagers were so enthusiastic that more than 50 people immediately lined up and left with Lao Zhang tou.


    When Merton saw the enthusiastic villagers, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Uncle Yu, you immediately organize people to fish. I want every waterwheel to be filled with fish and transported to Chang''an city. If there are not enough fish, go to Qujiang and Weihe River!"


    "Yes, young master!" the fish master replied loudly.


    "Come with me if you can catch fish!"


    Mojia village itself is low-lying, with many ponds, and adjacent to Qujiang River. There are many villagers who can fish. When Master Yu said hello, one or two hundred people followed and left.


    The rest of the villagers continued to build bridges, pave roads and repair houses under the arrangement of Li Yi, but now the villagers are in high spirits and full of energy one by one.


    Their master has shown them a way. If they don''t know how to grasp it, they are the biggest fool in the world.

 Chapter 6

    Once a person has a goal, he will burst out with extraordinary passion. And a collective with a goal will create countless miracles.


    Today''s Mojia village is such a passionate collective. Everyone is busy working like a part.


    Those who can catch fish can''t shout in the river. They spread their nets one by one. Road builders have built all the roads in Mojia village. Each road is rolled and leveled with stones. The specifications are comparable to the level of official roads. They even extend the roads in the village for five miles to connect with official roads.


    This strange situation even alerted people in several nearby villages to come and see the excitement and ask about the situation, but the people in Mojia village were smiling and silent.


    "Joke! This is the root of our Mojia village''s turnaround. How can you know?" Li Yi sent a group of people from the neighboring village and sneered.


    "That''s nice!"


    Li Yi looked at the flourishing situation of the Mohist village. He was not so happy for a long time. Now he was full of confidence in the future of the Mohist village. He was not sure whether he could become the richest village in the Tang Dynasty, but he was sure to surpass the chuangs who had just come.


    Three days later, just after dawn, Merton was called up by purple. This time, Merton didn''t dislike purple disturbing his dream, because today is the day to sell fish in Chang''an.


    "Fifteen water tankers!"


    Merton was surprised to see that there were 15 water tankers neatly placed at the door of the Mo house, far more than the ten water tankers expected before.


    "Master Zhang has worked hard!" Merton said.


    "Thanks to everyone, we worked in shifts for three days and were not idle. Only then could we build five more carriages." Lao Zhang said modestly.


    Dong Dong!


    Merton gently knocked on the wood board above the waterwheel, listened to the sound of the fish splashing on the water in the waterwheel, and couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction. Mojia village is the only village of Mohism, and the crafts handed down by the ancestors have not been discarded at all.


    Merton was very satisfied with the waterwheel, and it was improved. The wheel rotation was used as the power to rotate the oxygen supply to provide oxygen for the fish in the waterwheel, which not only saved manpower but also kept secret, killing two birds with one stone.


    "Young master! All the fish have been loaded into the water truck!" Fubo bowed.


    Merton nodded and turned to look at the eager eyes of the villagers around him. Those eyes were full of hope and fear of disillusionment.


    "Villagers! Please rest assured that our Mojia village will succeed this time!" Merton assured the villagers.


    "Let''s go," Merton waved his hand,


    There are seven young people in front of each water tanker, two pull, one grasp the direction, and four push behind.


    Yes, it''s all human. Mojia village is so poor that it doesn''t even have a cow to farm.


    Mojia village, 50 miles from Chang''an,


    Every ten miles, the whole team stopped and checked.


    Ten miles ahead, the fish is still alive


    Twenty miles, still alive


    Thirty years, there is still nothing


    Every fish in the forty miles spits bubbles leisurely. I can''t see the difference between it and in the river.


    Fifty miles away, the whole Chang''an city was already in sight. Li Yi grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into it. Hearing the roaring sound of the water tanker, the big stone in his heart finally settled down.


    "It''s done this time!" Li Yi and Fu Bo looked at each other, unable to hide the joy in the corners of their eyes.


    Looking at Merton, who was still alive and well because he had driven 50 miles ahead, he couldn''t help feeling excited. According to this, the rise of Mojia village is just around the corner.


    Chang''an, Chang''an, the Millennium ancient capital,


    Merton was excited. His fatigue of fifty miles had already disappeared. How can he not be very excited to come to this great imperial dynasty and great capital.


    Fifty miles is not that Merton is not tired, but that Merton''s spirit has been very excited and can''t feel tired at all.


    "Chang''an is here!" Li Xin shouted loudly in front of him.


    Everyone could not help but feel refreshed. It was Chang''an City, the center of the whole empire and the hope of their Mojia village.


    Merton suddenly looked up and saw a huge city gate in his sight. Although Merton in later generations had seen the restoration of the city wall, when he saw the city gate with his own eyes, he found that he had a different charm.


    The mottled city walls are full of potholes, which are the traces left by repeated wars. In some inconspicuous places, there is a little mottled moss, which is the footprints quietly left by time. A strong spirit of killing comes to our face, but those flat and smooth imitation city walls in later generations can not be compared.


    The gate was wide, and there was no problem with four carriages in parallel. There were several soldiers at the gate who routinely checked the business trips.


    Li Yi opened the banner of Mo mansion. Now, Merton is the title of xianbo. He can enjoy some privileges and enter Chang''an city without queuing up.


    Chang''an city is a political, economic and cultural center. Business students from all over the country, foreign envoys and Hu merchants from the western regions gather in Chang''an city. The prosperity here is not comparable to the poor mountain valley in Mojia village. The boys in Mojia village keep their eyes on it.


    "Look, it''s a hu man with green eyes and red hair. It''s terrible!" the young man in Mojia village shouted when he saw a hu man.


    "What are you looking at? You look like you haven''t seen the world!" Li Yi shouted.


    "Dad! Haven''t we been here?" Li Xin said wrongfully.


    "Never! If our Mojia village succeeds this time, you can live in Chang''an city!" Li Yi shouted.


    "Really!" the boys were surprised.


    "Of course it''s true!" Murton shouted.


    "Mojia village should become rich in the future. Chang''an city is the key point. In the future, people will be specially arranged to live in Chang''an city. It depends on your performance. Don''t say it''s Hu people at that time, even if you marry a Hu Ji!" Merton encouraged.


    More than 100 young men were excited. The fatigue of driving 50 miles in a row had already disappeared. Instead, it was a strong fighting spirit. It was a dream to stay in Chang''an city!


    As for marrying Hu Ji, don''t think about it. There are village rules in Mojia village. You can''t marry Hu as a wife even if you are single all your life.


    Merton looked at the fighting people in Mojia village and couldn''t help getting excited. These young men are energetic and smart. They are the seeds specially selected by Mojia village. They are the backbone of the future of Mojia village when they come to Chang''an City for the first time.


    Looking at the bustling streets of Chang''an City, the endless crowds and the noisy Hawking of shops on both sides, Merton shouted in his heart.


    "Datang, I''m coming!"

 Chapter 7

    "Go, let me show you the prosperity of Chang''an." Merton waved his big hand and led the team forward. Every time he received the salary of the county uncle, Merton had to take it in person, so Merton came to Chang''an more often and was familiar with Chang''an city.


    "Young master! I seem to have gone the wrong way!" Li Yi came forward and interrupted Merton''s high spirits!


    "Our shop in Mojia village is in the fish market in the south of the city. Young master, you''re going north!"


    "Pooh!" people in the motorcade couldn''t help laughing.


    "Nonsense! You think I don''t know!" Merton rolled his eyes angrily and said.


    "Then you?" Li Yi said with a puzzled face.


    "Second uncle! What are we selling in Chang''an this time?" Merton asked.


    "Fish!" Li Yi glared.


    "No, it''s a live fish!" Li Xin added.


    "Smelly boy, you think I don''t know!" Li Yi respected Merton, but he was rude to Li Xin.


    As soon as Li Yi stared, Li Xin returned to the team bitterly.


    "Brother Xin is right! This time we sell live fish, but what''s the difference between the live fish we sell and the live fish sold by others!" Merton looked around and asked.


    "It doesn''t make any difference! The fish we sell are the same as those around Chang''an." Li Yi frowned.


    "Yes!" Merton said loudly. "These fish are the same as their fish, but not the same."


    "Er, ER!" everyone fainted. Why are they all the same and different?


    "Of course not. Our fish are transported from fifty miles away, which is not comparable to those just fished out of the river!" said a young man from Mojia village proudly.


    "Er!" Merton pressed his forehead silently. They were all the same species of fish, and they were all live fish. Mojia village spent a lot of manpower to transport them from fifty miles away, which consumed more manpower and material resources than others. What is there to be proud of.


    Of course, these words can''t be said, otherwise they can only dampen the enthusiasm of the villagers in Mojia village


    "Not bad! We sell the fish raised by the young master with our unique skills of Mohism!" Yu Er said loudly.


    "No, I didn''t invent the technology. It''s the unique skill of our Mohist School for thousands of years!" Merton said like a magic stick.


    "Oh!" people suddenly realized. I said, young master, why did he suddenly become so powerful! It turned out that he got the secret skill of the ancestors of Mohism.


    Only Li Yi and some other old people who escorted the car looked at Merton suspiciously. They knew better than Merton about what was good in the Mojia village. They had never heard of any secret technique spread for thousands of years.


    "But we know this is the secret skill of Mohism for thousands of years, but the people of Chang''an city don''t know! How can we show the beauty of our fish?" Merton said.


    "What does the young master mean?" Li Yi said suspiciously.


    "Of course, the whole people of Chang''an should know how precious the fish in our Mojia village is, so I decided that today''s team would circle the south of the city and then go to the fish market!" Merton said proudly.


    "Fubo!" Merton looked at Fubo. Fubo immediately took out a lot of flagpoles and banners from the carriage, and even drums, gongs, trumpets, Sheng pipes and so on.


    Isn''t this something used for funerals in the village? Why did you suddenly get here.


    Soon, each waterwheel was divided into a flag and a musical instrument, and the whole team was instantly happy.


    "Dangdang! Dongdong..." the sound of drums and gongs, mixed with the sound of Sheng and Xiao, attracted the eyes of the whole street in an instant.


    "Uncle fish! I''ll give you the rest!" Merton looked at the fish master and said.


    "Don''t worry, young master! I don''t have any other skills. I still have the skills to make and sell fish." the fish Master said confidently.


    With that, the fish master took the lead to the front of the team and grabbed the Gong from the fish.


    "Dong!" the fish master knocked heavily and shouted loudly.


    "The unique skill of Mohism for thousands of years is now in the world! It can keep alive fish and strengthen people''s health."


    The fish master shouted and stopped to signal other teams to beat gongs and drums.


    In an instant, the whole team was full of gongs and drums and red flags. Fish two roared: "Mohist live fish, strengthen your body."


    "None of the live fish transported from Mojia village fifty miles away from Chang''an will die."


    "Mohist live fish can strengthen the body."


    ¡°¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡±


    The whole street was suddenly quiet, and everyone stared at the wonderful motorcade.


    The young men in Mojia village were ashamed one by one. They felt that they had never been so ashamed. They were surrounded by people in the whole street.


    "Mohism?" murmured a scholar in blue in the crowd.


    "What is Mohism and what big family is Mohism?" asked a strong man with a fierce face.


    "I don''t know. Mohism is not a big family. It is the strongest among the hundreds of schools in the pre-Qin period," said a scholar proudly.


    "So powerful!" the strong man said in surprise.


    "Of course, the Mohist school was also full of talents. It was called Confucianism and Mohism together with Confucianism. It was one of the two prominent schools at that time. At that time, there was a saying that non Confucianism was ink." the Qingyi Confucian scholar added.


    "Mohism was once brilliant, and now what good results? It''s not the same. It''s reduced to selling fish for a living." the scholar despised.


    "Hey!" the Confucian scholars in Qingyi also lamented repeatedly. The Mohist school, which was once famous for a while, has really declined. There have been few famous figures since the Han Dynasty.


    "I know Mojia village," exclaimed a waiter. "It''s next to our village."


    "It''s really fifty miles away!" someone asked.


    "It''s true that our village is 51 miles away from Chang''an City, and Mojia village is still three miles south of our village." the man affirmed.


    "But Mojia village is very poor in our country. There is a ballad that says, ''don''t marry Mojia village when you marry a daughter. You''d rather throw it on the riverside.'' no daughter of any family wants to suffer in Mojia village." the man despised the people in Mojia village and said.


    "Ha ha!" everyone around laughed and despised this Mohist village. It was a shame that a village where no one even married a daughter-in-law came to Chang''an to sell fish under the banner of Mohism.


    "Ha ha!" the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi looked at the proud man in the crowd and smiled like a frog at the bottom of a well.


    Maybe Mojia village used to be poor, but if Mojia village could transport live fish from fifty miles away, as they advertised, it would soon be called the richest village around them..


    His understanding of Mojia village is not as superficial as others. What really interests him is the young man who walks in front of the team and is still happy in the face of public pointing.

 Chapter 8

    Merton, who comes from later generations, doesn''t feel bad about advertising. He''s not embarrassed.


    He walked in the motorcade and observed Chang''an City happily. In fact, Chang''an city is no better than the small county town of later generations, but its layout and style have a unique charm.


    In the motorcade, the others in Mojia village gradually let go, and they were not so nervous. The gongs and drums sounded louder and the brocade flag held higher.


    Soon, the unique skills of Mohism spread all over Chang''an city.


    The Mohist team turned the whole south of the city, and then returned to the fish market.


    "Young master! Our shop has arrived!"


    Said fuber.


    Merton looked up and said nothing for a long time. This is a three storefront shop. The shop area is very large, but it is too broken.


    "Salted fish shop!" Merton was speechless. Is there a worse name in the world?


    "Take off this door number right away! Go to the paster immediately and change it into a fresh fish shop!" Merton said, pointing to the door number.


    "It''s the young master!" Fubo responded, immediately commanded the two young men to come forward, take off the door number and leave in a hurry.


    "All the motorcade don''t go into the shop. Today we''ll sell fish at the door." Merton commanded. It''s almost noon. It''s time to make lunch. It''s the best time to sell fish.


    "Yes, young master!" Uncle Yu replied. Under his command, a huge wooden basin was pulled out of the shop, placed behind the waterwheel, and suddenly opened the back door of the waterwheel.


    "Wow!" a large number of fish mixed with water gushed out of the outlet hole, all of them submerged in the wooden basin, and a strong fishy smell came to my face.


    "Live fish, it''s really live fish!" Mojia village publicized all the way. Many people had been watching. When they saw that all the fish in the wooden basin were live fish, they couldn''t help crying.


    "Mojia village doesn''t lie, even if it doesn''t count the distance from Mojia village to Chang''an. If so many fish are crowded in the waterwheel and go around Chang''an City for so long, at least half of these fish will die." a fisherman in the crowd was surprised.


    "Please look, the live fish of Mohism is absolutely true." the fish master shouted, "all live fish are at the market price, 20 yuan a kilo."


    The price of Datang fish is about eight Wen a catty, while the price of live fish is more than three times. It is also very reasonable to sell twenty Wen a catty in Mojia village.


    "OK, give me one!"


    "Give me two,


    Moreover, all the fish transported from Mojia village were of high quality. With good appearance and the strength of publicity, a truck of fish was quickly looted.


    Soon the second truck of fish was pulled up and sold out quickly,


    The third car, the fourth car


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Fourteen carts of fish were sold out just after noon. The rest of the carts of fish had already been sent by Li Yi to the robe once used by Mo lie''s father.


    When the Mojia village couldn''t turn around these years, it received relief from these brothers and gave them the best fish caught in the past three days.


    "Sorry, folks, the fish have been sold out, but please rest assured that from now on, Mojia village will deliver a large number of live fish every morning." Uncle Yu promised loudly.


    People who didn''t buy fish heard that a large number of live fish were sold every day. Then they left bitterly and secretly decided to arrive early next time.


    The shops around have green eyes. They have never seen such a hot business for so many years. If they do this every day, they won''t let people live.


    However, although the business of Mojia village is booming, it has no impact on their business. After all, Mojia village sells expensive. If you don''t want to buy live fish at a high price, you will naturally buy their dead fish.


    "Bang!"


    Salted fish shop, no, the door of fresh fish shop was closed heavily. More than 100 people in Mojia village stared at the money box in the fish master''s hand with green eyes.


    Master fish was also excited and trembled. He had never seen money, but had never sold so much money. Feeling the heavy cash box in his hand, master fish suddenly poured the cash box on the table in the middle of the house.


    "Wow!" the yellow copper coins mixed with some broken silver stabbed everyone''s eyes.


    "Mojia village is saved!" Li Yi cried with tears on his face.


    "Yeah!" more than 100 people in Mojia village shouted one after another. Many people cried bitterly. Mojia village has been poor for too long. Now they finally see hope.


    "What are you crying about? What is this money? This is just the beginning. In the future, we can earn so much money every day. Each of you can marry a daughter-in-law and live in a big house." Merton laughed and scolded. His heart was sour. The Mojia village was poor, but he didn''t eat and wear less for him and didn''t let him suffer a little injustice. How could he not be moved?


    "The young master is mighty!"


    More than 100 boys in Mojia village surrounded Merton in the middle and shouted in unison. Merton laughed and fought with them.


    "Young master, it has been calculated. With these broken silver, the total is 35 yuan and 671 yuan." Uncle Yu took a breath and interrupted Merton''s frolic.


    "So much?" Merton was surprised.


    It''s always equal to one thousand, thirty-five thousand, or thirty-five thousand. If you know that the human and material resources in Mojia village are free, how much food can you buy with more than thirty-five thousand, and this is only today. What will happen in the future?


    Think again about the bright future that the young master once promised, it seems that it is not impossible to realize.


    "From now on, everyone involved in fishing and selling fish will pay thirty Wen a day, and the rest will be used to buy food and bring it back to Mojia village," Merton said loudly.


    "Young master! Isn''t there too much!" Li Yi quickly stopped. He is the most prestigious in Mojia village, and he is the only villain.


    "Yes, it''s too much. We can''t afford it!" the boys in Mojia village shook their heads one after another,


    You know, thirty Wen a day, thirty days a month, that''s 900 Wen. Before, they helped others work. They worked hard every day. If they met a good family, they would give them ten Wen. Even if they met a poor family, they would take care of their food. One month is close to the consistent income, which they never dare to think of.


    "Nothing, what''s this money? Give it to you and you''ll go on. You deserve it!" Merton said with a smile.


    "This...?" the people in Mojia village were embarrassed, but there was a desire in their eyes.


    "Well, take what the young master gave you!" Li Yi said firmly.


    "Great!" the fresh fish spread a piece of jubilation.


    Soon, everyone in Mojia village received the salary, simply padded his stomach, and immediately found a food shop. Regardless of the price, as long as there is food, he immediately paid to move the food and rushed back as quickly as possible. They want the villagers of Mojia village to taste the hard won fruits of victory.

 Chapter 9

    When Merton and the people of Mojia village returned to Mojia village, it was dark. The fifty mile journey makes everyone physically tired, but the excitement and excitement in their hearts make everyone full of power.


    Especially when seeing the little fire at the entrance of Mojia village, everyone couldn''t help but feel warm.


    "Back!" Murakami shouted when he saw the convoy coming back.


    In an instant, a large number of villagers poured out of the village. Some took over the convoy, and some handed over food and warm water.


    "Well, have you sold the fish?" one armed uncle came to Merton and asked in a trembling voice.


    The other villagers looked hopeful, but the villagers who took over the convoy were depressed because they found that there was no bag of grain on the waterwheel.


    "Didn''t you sell it?" some villagers were worried.


    Merton didn''t sell off and asked someone to turn on the waterwheel.


    "Ah! These are all grains?" one armed Uncle Wang said in surprise.


    "Of course, fifteen carts are full of food," Morton said proudly.


    "Great!" the Mohist villagers cheered and ran to tell each other.


    "How can it be loaded in the waterwheel! What if the grain is broken?" said Uncle Wang with a sad face. Other villagers also have a sore face. The waterwheel was just used to transport fish today. It is still very wet and it is not easy to preserve food.


    "What''s the way!" Li Yi went forward. "We''re all pulling water tankers. There''s no way to stack grain. The young master thought of this idea and asked him to pour grain directly into the water tankers. The grain on the top will be dried tomorrow. It''s still good grain. The wet bottom will be eaten tomorrow. It''s not wasted at all."


    Indeed, there are more than 5000 people in Mojia village. Fifteen carts of grain will be eaten up in a few days. Do you still let them go bad?


    The people of Mojia village welcomed the fish selling team back to the village like heroes. Tonight, Mojia village will be a sleepless night, and the villagers of each household will receive food.


    "Eat at ease! Don''t be reluctant. When you come back from selling fish every day, you will bring back food, and we won''t be short of food in the future." fuber told me after delivering food one by one on behalf of Merton.


    "Thank you, young master, thank you?" widow Zhao thanked her teenage son again and again. Both their mother and son are martyrs'' widows. Their mother and son are weak and young. They don''t make any income at all. They can live only by taking care of the Mohist villagers.


    Rao is so. He usually has a miserable life. Now he suddenly knows that he will never be hungry again. Happiness comes too suddenly.


    "Mom, I want to eat pancakes!" the teenage son stared at half a bag of grain and licked his tongue.


    "OK, Wei Niang will make it for you now." widow Zhao went to the kitchen with tears in her eyes.


    Such families are very common in Mojia village. Soon, cooking smoke came up in Mojia village, especially those villagers who participated in fishing and selling fish were given 30 Wen wages one by one, and the family was even more jubilant. After all, the consistent income in January is a good thing that can''t be seen in a lifetime.


    Chang''an City,


    Qin Qiong took off her heavy armor and couldn''t help but feel weak. Mrs. Qin behind her was startled and hurried forward to hold her.


    "You are so brave that you can''t stand it. You still don''t put down military affairs. Don''t you remember the sins you suffered before?" Mrs. Qin scolded.


    Qin Qiong is weak and everyone knows it in the whole Chang''an City, but no one dares to be disrespectful to him, because he left his illness on the battlefield.


    "Well, my diseases are nothing. I''m lucky enough compared with those old brothers." Qin Qiong said optimistically.


    "You! It''s nothing!" said Mrs. Qin with hatred.


    After that, he pulled Qin Qiong to the table and said, "come on, I''ll make it up for you today!"


    A large bowl full of turtle soup was put in front of Qin Qiong, emitting an attractive fragrance, which made people''s appetite open.


    Qin Qiong has been running all day. She is already hungry. She can''t help eating.


    "How comfortable!" Qin Qiong did not let go of the last mouthful of soup and put the bowl heavily on the table.


    "Madam, you have a heart! Such a good turtle is rare!" a trace of tenderness flashed in Qin Qiong''s eyes.


    Mrs. Qin blushed and said angrily, "I don''t dare to take credit for it. It was sent by Mojia village."


    "Mo family village? Mo lie''s fief!" Qin qiongning said again.


    "Well, Ah Fu, the housekeeper of Mojia village, sent it this morning! In addition to this turtle, there are many fresh fish?" said Mrs. Qin.


    "Oh, Ah Fu has a heart!" Qin Qiong said, remembering something at random, "By the way, wait and see if there is surplus food in the house and let people send it to Mojia village. The whole Guanzhong has been hit by disasters this year, and the food price has risen sharply. The life of Mojia village must be difficult. It''s a real pity. Either old Mojia died young, and because it was the children of Mojia who refused to bow their heads to those big headscarves, the life of Mojia village would not be so difficult."


    Mo lie and Qin Qiong knew each other at that time. Mo lie was the commander of the magic camp and Qin Qiong was the vanguard. Whenever Qin Qiong went to war, Mo lie helped Qin Qiong pave the way for charge. They can be said to be friends of life and death.


    However, the identity of Mo lie''s disciples was excluded by those scholars and scholars. After the unification of the Tang Dynasty, many of Mo lie''s contributions were taken by those big headscarves when he was rewarded on merit. Otherwise, Mo lie''s title would be higher. What''s more annoying is that when he was enfeoffed, he was Yin by Confucianism, and the land distributed to Mo lie was barren land.


    Qin Qiong knows everything about Mo lie in those years and takes good care of Mo family village.


    "You don''t know that. I''m afraid there will be no shortage of food in Mojia village in the future?" Mrs. Qin sold it and said.


    "What''s the matter?" Qin Qiong''s heart tightened. The Mojia village was full of veterans retired from the magic camp. If Qin Qiong knew their bravery because of food, it would be very bad if she did something special to survive. You know, a penny can''t defeat the hero. For so many people in the Mojia village, it''s hard for some people to take risks.


    "Where do you want to go?" Mrs. Qin glanced at Qin Qiong. As a couple for many years, she certainly knew what Qin Qiong was thinking.


    Mr. Qin no longer played tricks. He clearly told Qin Qiong about the advertising of Mojia village in the whole Chang''an City, the hot sale of live fish, and even the purchase of food. It can be seen how meticulous Mrs. Qin is. When Fu Bo came to the door to deliver fish, she knew that Qin Qiong would never forget his best friend and had already secretly paid attention to the people in Mojia village.


    "The secret skill of living fish." Qin Qiong was stunned. He didn''t expect that Mojia village would reverse its fate in this way.


    However, he was a little worried. Merton''s publicity really helped the Mohist village resolve the crisis, but it brought the Mohist back to the attention of the public. I don''t know if it''s a good thing.


    "Merton!" Qin Qiong said silently. He remembered the descendants of the old brother.

 Chapter 10

    The next day, with the momentum of the Mojia village, there was a shocking vitality. Everyone was like beating chicken blood. They were full of energy. It was just dawn. All the villagers had got up to work. Even the laziest purple clothes cleaned all the inside and outside of the Mojia village.


    "Not bad!" Merton said, touching his little head in purple. The wrong move made Ziyi turn her eyes.


    "Do a good job and bring you a silk when I come back today." Merton decided to reward the purple dress. After a good training, the girl is still expected to be competent for the work of a servant girl.


    "Thank you, young master." Ziyi forgot her hatred and said happily.


    "Ah! Still so heartless!" Merton sighed, waved and jumped into an ox cart.


    With spare money, Mojia village hired a cow from the neighboring village to pull a car for the first time, so that Merton finally avoided the tragedy of walking another 50 miles.


    "Let''s go!" Merton was as high spirited as commanding thousands of troops, but there were only 15 water tankers, which seemed a little funny.


    As soon as the motorcade arrived at Chang''an City, it immediately beat gongs and drums to set up the signboard of Mojia village.


    "The people of Mojia village are coming again." the man exclaimed yesterday.


    "Does Mojia village really master the unique skill that can make fish live for a long time?" the man with a keen sense of smell suddenly realized the benefits.


    If the Mojia village only sells live fish once, maybe everyone will just talk about it. Now the Mojia village comes as promised for the second time and brings 15 carts of live fish, then the unique skills of the Mojia village may really exist.


    "It''s really the unique skill of Mohism inherited for thousands of years!" Chang''an citizens exclaimed. More and more Chang''an citizens finally believe in the existence of Mohism''s unique skill. In addition, Mohism was famous in the pre-Qin period. With the addition of the two, live fish in Mohist village caught fire in Chang''an City, and even citizens in the East and west of the city came to buy fish.


    As a result, fifteen cars of live fish in Mojia village were sold out in half an hour.


    On the third day, it was even more sensational. Fifteen carts of live fish came and fifteen carts of grain were pulled back.


    On the fourth day, the number of water tankers in Mojia village increased to 20. The sale of live fish was still in short supply. Mojia village pulled back 20 carts of grain.


    On the fifth day, the motorcade of Mojia village increased by 25. When the 25 Mojia motorcade arrived at the South Gate of Chang''an city.


    The business travelers waiting for the past have been speeding up the motorcade of Mojia village with envious eyes. For five days, Mojia village has created wealth. The myth has been widely spread among these businessmen and citizens.


    One by one, they are envious and unwilling. Who''s to say that there is a millennium Mohist behind them in Mohist village!


    "Stop!" a city gate captain reached out and stopped the motorcade in Mojia village.


    "Oh! It''s general Chi Zhiyong. I don''t know what''s important for general Chi Zhiyong to stop our Mojia village team." Li Yi frowned, reached out to stop Merton and asked.


    "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. It''s not peaceful inside and outside Chang''an city these days. After receiving the order from the head, we should strictly investigate the business travel to and from Chang''an City, so as to prevent bandits from sneaking into Chang''an city." Chi Zhiyong said with a straight face.


    "General Chi, please don''t worry. The Mohist village is the descendants of veterans who follow your majesty to fight the world. The owner of our Mohist village is the self styled County uncle of your majesty. We are loyal to your majesty. There are absolutely no people with bad character, let alone bandits." Li Yi pointed to Merton and said loudly.


    "If there are any bandits, it will be clear after checking!" Chi Zhiyong is not accommodating at all. Even if Li Yi moves out of Merton, Chi Zhiyong will not be moved by it.


    "I think your waterwheel is the best hiding place for bandits." Chi Zhiyong shouted.


    "General, this is the fish cart we sell fish. The whole Chang''an city knows it." Li Yi argued.


    "It''s a fish or a man. Just open it and have a look. If there were no bandits, I would have wronged you." Chi Zhiyong said sternly.


    Everyone in Mojia village gave a clap in their heart. It''s bad! The city gate captain came for the live fish secret skills of Mojia village. Any inspection of bandits is an excuse. Otherwise, why don''t other businessmen and cars inspect the vehicles of Mojia village.


    The merchants waiting outside the south gate were also in an uproar. These people were also human spirits. Of course, we can guess the intention of the captain of the city gate to resolutely open the waterwheel of Mojia village.


    The living fish secret skill of Mohist school!


    Yes, it''s just for the live fish secret skills of Mojia village. Chi Zhiyong risked offending Mojia village and skillfully seizing the live fish secret skills of Mojia village in full view of the public, but he took a great risk.


    But imagine the man''s promise of great benefits and the promise that he will be fine. Don''t you think he is a declining County uncle? What''s the big deal.


    "Don''t let him see!" a young man in the crowd of Mojia village shouted angrily.


    The secret skill of live fish in Mojia village is the lifeblood of Mojia village. If outsiders get it, the advantage of selling live fish in Mojia village will disappear. More than 5000 people in Mojia village will have to go back to the bitter days when they were hungry and full. How can they go back to see the people in Mojia village.


    They will never forget the scene that they gave their family thirty Wen a day. At that moment, he felt that life was full of hope and future.


    "What do you want to do?" Chi Zhiyong shouted. His long gun was raised in an instant. At the same time, all the city gate soldiers also raised their weapons and pointed at the people in Mojia village.


    Chi Zhiyong was ecstatic. He wanted to check the original name of the waterwheel in Mojia village. If the people of Mojia village resisted, he would have a handle on it.


    "Stop!" came a loud cry. The people in Mojia village were automatically divided into two rows, and Merton walked out from the middle.


    "Who are you waiting for?" Chi Zhiyong said sternly. In fact, he played drums in his heart. Of course, he knew Merton''s identity. He observed the Mohist team on the city gate for a few days.


    "I am Merton, Bo, the founding County of the Empire, and the Mojia village is my fief, a Mojia disciple." Merton said proudly.


    "Ah! He is the son of the Mohist school!" exclaimed the people at the gate.


    "It is said that the secret skill of Mohist living fish is in his hands."


    "It is said that he made a great wish in Mojia village to make it the richest village in the Tang Dynasty from a poor village."


    ¡°¡­¡­¡­¡­¡±


    The crowd talked and looked at Merton with a trace of mystery.


    "You indiscriminately aim the weapons guarding the imperial capital at the founding County of the Empire. Who gave you so much courage?" Merton suddenly shouted.


    "Ah!"


    Chi Zhiyong panicked. In the Tang Dynasty, the hierarchy was very strict, especially when the founding heroes were still alive and officially powerful, titles often represented power.


    Before Chi Zhiyong ordered, all the soldiers at the gate put up their weapons and dared not point their weapons at the people in Mojia village.


    Chi Zhiyong was in a dilemma at the moment, but he thought of the benefits he was about to get, and vowed to tell him that the secret skill of live fish in Mojia village was in the waterwheel. He gritted his teeth and said, "please forgive me, your humble position has an imperial mission, and please open the waterwheel.

 Chapter 11

    The scene suddenly solidified. Everyone in Mojia village held tightly the fishing tools in their hands and stared at Chi Zhiyong. As long as Merton gave an order, these people would immediately kill all these shrimps and crabs.


    Moreover, Mojia village has just had a good life. They don''t want to go back to those poor days. They can pay their lives for this hard won good day.


    For a moment, the South Gate of Chang''an city was in a state of tension. Everyone stared at Merton. Whether to resist or compromise, everyone''s fate was on the boy.


    Merton took a deep breath, took a deep look at Chi Zhiyong, turned back and shouted, "open the water tanker and let the dutiful general Chi check it."


    Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Mojia village has compromised, and the soldiers guarding the city can''t help getting angry from the bottom of their hearts. Fortunately, Merton is the founder of the country, and they are small soldiers without foundation. If there is a conflict, Merton may not have something to do in the end, and they can''t escape.


    Chi Zhiyong couldn''t help smiling proudly. As long as he opened the waterwheel and let him search, the secret of Mojia village will appear in front of him without reservation.


    But he didn''t see Merton''s silent gesture. Li Yi understood it. The Gong in his hand suddenly knocked several times.


    After hearing the signal, the escort of each waterwheel immediately pulled a secret button and pushed the whole waterwheel out for five steps.


    Chi Zhiyong thought of something and suddenly turned pale.


    "What did you do?" Chi Zhiyong roared, suddenly came forward and pointed a long gun at Li Yi, "get out of the way immediately."


    "Ha ha!" Li Yi laughed. This time he didn''t stop. He dodged back and exposed a piece of wood behind him.


    "Ruined!" everyone was shocked. They didn''t expect that Mojia village had such a backhand. Obviously, these pieces of wood are the living fish secret skill of Mojia village. Now they are all destroyed.


    They didn''t know that Mojia village had suffered various tests these days. The originally poor Mojia village suddenly found a way to get rich. After the news spread, it immediately caused a sensation in a radius of ten miles. People from neighboring villages found various excuses to come to Mojia village to know the live fish secret skills of Mojia village.


    Many relatives who haven''t been around for many years suddenly come to recognize their relatives with gifts. They never patronize the matchmaker in Mojia village. Suddenly, they turn sexual. The matchmaker in Mojia village keeps coming to the door, but these matchmakers don''t look at the young man, but beat around the living fish.


    The village head of the neighboring village Guojiazhuang even took out his daughter to make a beauty trick. Finally, Li Yi''s eldest son Li Xin skillfully saw through it. Instead of success, they lost their daughter. Now they have been engaged. They will get married after the Mojia village is busy for a while!


    In an emergency, Merton held a plenary meeting of Mojia village again to order the necessity of confidentiality and formulate various methods to prevent disclosure.


    At present, all relatives in Mojia village refuse to receive them. The matchmakers have designated occasions to receive them alone and are completely separated from the fish selling team.


    The debris in this area is another layer of protection in Mojia village. Lao Zhang tou installed a mechanism in the oxygen supplier. Only by pressing the mechanism for a few steps, the pressure of the wheel will crush the oxygen supplier, so as to avoid the possibility of leakage as much as possible.


    Everyone stared at Chi Zhiyong with sympathetic eyes. One moment he was still satisfied, and the next moment he fell from heaven to hell.


    "How dare you be so bold?" Chi Zhiyong stared at the people in Mojia village.


    "Where do you start?" Merton said with a smile. "The Mohist waterwheel can be sealed, but after a special structure, it takes a few steps to open the waterwheel and waste some wood. General Chi won''t think that these small pieces of wood contain the wanted criminals of the imperial court."


    Merton smiled and said, "don''t hurry to open the waterwheel and let general Chi have a good inspection. It will also prove the innocence of our Mojia village."


    "Yes, young master!" all the people in Mojia village spoke with one voice, which shook Chang''an city.


    Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang. From time to time, there was a powerful sound of living fish hitting the water.


    "All fish are alive!" the crowd saw with sharp eyes that there were black fish heads in the waterwheel, and none of them turned white.


    "What a pity? Well, the secret skills of Mohist live fish are ruined." a pity voice came from the crowd.


    "What''s a pity? You didn''t see some wood chips. You don''t think about what the Mohists do. They can rebuild these things. They don''t have any loss. They just pity our general Chi. They draw water with bamboo basket and offend a count." someone in the crowd sneered.


    Chi Zhiyong''s face was green and red. After a moment of struggle, he went to Merton and said flatteringly, "misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Old general merlie is a hero in the army. I have admired him for a long time. This time, I''m just a routine. How can I doubt Mojia village."


    "Let''s go, let''s go?" Chi Zhiyong shouted at the soldiers. "You''re all blind. Haven''t you seen Lord Merton''s motorcade passing? You haven''t looked so pale."


    The soldiers are also full of resentment. It was you who picked the trouble at the beginning, but now you put the responsibility on us.


    "Oh!" cheers broke out from the motorcade of Mojia village.


    "Pick up everything on the ground and then start!" Li Yi shouted.


    Chi Zhiyong can''t help twitching in the corners of his mouth. The Mojia village is really watertight. If these wood chips are missing here, he will immediately collect these fragments and ask some skilled craftsmen to recover. Maybe he can see through the secret of the Mojia village, which is also the reason why he decided to release them immediately.


    But now everything is impossible. For the sake of their own wealth, Mojia village has taken protective measures to the extreme. Thinking that he has not completed his task and offended a founding County uncle, Chi Zhiyong feels that his life is gloomy. Now it''s up to Merton to pursue him.


    "County uncle, forgive me. I''m a villain with no eyes. Please forgive me for offending adults." Chi Zhiyong, also a personal expert, immediately came forward to apologize.


    "I know what you want to do. Everyone knows what you want to do. As a city gate official, you shoulder the important responsibility of the safety of the imperial capital. Instead of working hard for the people, you use power for personal gain. Even if I let you go, you think the court can forgive you! Today you can use power for personal gain in order to obtain the secret skills of our Mojia village. If there are enough benefits from bandits, who can guarantee that you won''t Take advantage of your own convenience to do harm to Chang''an city. "Merton calmly stared at Chi Zhiyong and killed his heart every word.


    "I know you all want to know the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village. Now I can tell you." Merton''s voice was very hoarse after the voice change period, but shocked the whole audience.


    "What? Tell us... The secret of living fish?" everyone wondered.

 Chapter 12

    Everyone looked at Merton in disbelief. Just now, Merton was trying to protect the secret of live fish. In the twinkling of an eye, Merton was going to say it.


    Chi Zhiyong was so shocked that he couldn''t help raising a glimmer of hope. If Merton could say the secret recipe of live fish, he would also explain to the people behind him. It will not become an abandoned fate.


    The villagers of Mojia village are also dignified, but no one came out to stop Merton, because they believe that Merton will not harm the interests of Mojia village.


    In everyone''s eager eyes, Merton slowly said, "in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, the giant of Mohism


    Mozi once traveled around the world. When he came to the East China Sea, he saw a very interesting thing.


    A sardine is very delicious in the deep sea, especially the living sardine. The people who have been fortunate to eat it all praise that the price is very high. All fishermen go fishing in the sea. But the fish is very fragile. Once the catch is up to a half hour, the fishermen will think of many ways, but every time they come back, they are dead fish.


    Only an old fisherman came back alive with sardine. Mo-tse was very curious and asked the old fisherman what he could do to bring the live fish back.


    The old fisherman admired Mozi very much and said, "Dear Mozi, you are a man of noble character and will certainly not covet my secrets."


    So the old fisherman told Mo-tse that the method he adopted was very simple. The deep-sea fish was very delicate. Once he was caught, he was doomed to live. He put a catfish in the fishing boat. Catfish also love to eat this delicious fish and chase these sardine everywhere.


    And sardine, swimming to survive, has survived.


    Mo-tse carefully observed this phenomenon, and was greatly inspired by things and people. He felt deeply that people were struggling to survive for these sardine.


    Mozi said, "this is the catfish effect."


    Mozi didn''t want to bury his wisdom, and didn''t have the heart to make the secret of the old fisherman''s survival public, so he left it secret and agreed to keep it secret for thousands of years.


    Up to now, Mozi''s secret can reproduce the sky and the sun. The secret technique of live fish in Mojia village is inspired by the catfish effect. If you want to crack the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village, it depends on your skills.


    After that, Merton led the team of Mojia village away.


    "Catfish effect!"


    After Merton left for a long time, the people at the South Gate of Chang''an City were still murmuring and immersed in it.


    "Or I''ll buy a catfish and have a try," one man said to himself.


    The man''s voice was very quiet, but it was very quiet around and directly spread to everyone''s ears.


    right! Why don''t I try this catfish effect myself? The whole South Gate immediately dispersed, leaving a group of city gate soldiers with big eyes and small eyes. Chi Zhiyong wanted to work in shifts immediately to experiment with the catfish effect.


    Mojia village motorcade walked on the street of Chang''an city. After experiencing the city gate, no one was in the mood to beat gongs and drums.


    However, Merton obviously felt the panic in the hearts of the people in Mojia village, with inexplicable pride.


    Merton knows that only a limited number of people know the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village. They are afraid that someone will crack it after Merton says the catfish effect.


    Of course, they are proud that their spiritual leader Mozi''s deeds reappeared, found the catfish effect, kept promises and kept secret for thousands of years. Mozi is such a noble person, and their Mozi village is Mozi''s descendants and noble.


    "Young master! Is Mozi''s Secret true?" Li Yi said in a trembling voice.


    "Of course!" Merton said without hesitation.


    "Great!" Li Yi was very excited.


    This is of great significance to them. Mojia village has always abided by the rules of Mojia and considered itself to be the children of Mojia. However, if Merton mastered the secret of Mozi, it will correct the name of Mojia village for them.


    We have Mozi in our Mojia village, and follow Mozi''s order to keep it secret for thousands of years. Who can doubt the orthodox status of our Mojia village.


    This is why Merton deliberately said that the catfish effect was close to Mozi. First, he wants to make Mozi famous again, so as to drive the reputation of Mohist village. Second, he wants to build Mohist village into a new holy land called Mohist. First, he wants to make Mohist village proud of Mohist and increase the cohesion of Mohist village.


    "Will our secret skills of living fish be revealed?" Li Xin worried.


    "Smelly boy, you''ve fallen into the eyes of money. This is a great time to correct the name of our Mojia village. Let alone the live fish secret of Mojia village, let''s go through fire and water." Li Yi blew his beard and glared.


    Other old people in Mojia village who escorted the car also agreed with each other. They couldn''t help holding their heads high and becoming more proud.


    The young people don''t think so. Although they are proud of Mozi''s close relationship in Mojia village, they are more concerned about whether the secret skills of live fish will be revealed.


    "No!" Merton''s two light people reassured the people in Mojia village immediately, and the whole team relaxed instantly.


    It''s strange to be able to leak secrets. The catfish effect says that external stimuli make the interior radiate vitality, which can''t compete with the eight poles of artificial oxygen supply.


    The old people in Mojia village are also smiling. Although they are more concerned about the rectification of the name of Mojia village, it is better not to reveal the secrets of live fish.


    Merton also smiled knowingly. In fact, even if he didn''t encounter Chi Zhiyong''s difficulties today, he would also disclose the catfish effect. In addition to correcting the name of Mojia village and spreading Mozi, what''s more important is that today they pulled 15 carts of catfish. Now I don''t seem to worry about selling any more.


    The whole Chang''an City became a sensation again. The catfish effect spread all over Chang''an City in the shortest time. Thousands of years ago, the great Mozi conquered Chang''an city again with his unique wisdom and noble personality.


    "Catfish effect, is it not a catfish chased by sardine?"


    A frustrated man looked up and sighed.


    "In order to keep his word, Mozi buried his wisdom for thousands of years."


    "With amazing wisdom and noble personality, Mozi is worthy of being the leader of the pre-Qin scholars."


    Countless Chang''an people praised Mozi''s wisdom and personality, because at that time, wise people and trustworthy people were highly respected, but Mozi in Merton''s mouth combined these two personalities into one, and perfectly solved the reason why the secret skill of living fish didn''t appear until today.


    "The live fish secret skill was born out of the catfish effect. If I could get the live fish secret skill of Mojia village, wouldn''t I be rich? It is said that someone has offered the live fish secret skill of Mojia village to 500 yuan!" someone sighed and suddenly found his companion walking out anxiously.


    "What are you doing?" the man ran after him and shouted.


    "Buy a catfish first!" said the companion without looking back.


    The man was in a hurry and hurriedly said, "wait for me, I''ll go too."


    The business of Mojia village is booming again, and 15 cars of catfish are sold out in the shortest time.

 Chapter 13

    "Catfish effect"


    With the passage of time, the word became more and more popular in Chang''an city.


    No one doubts whether Merton is cheating, because the story of catfish effect is very realistic. Although some people in Changan have heard of sardine, they do not interfere with the understanding of catfish effect.


    Han people are not short of smart people, especially some superiors, who often use the means of catfish effect, but they have not summarized it in such detail before. Now I suddenly realized the catfish effect.


    In the pan restaurant, everyone was sitting around a middle-aged man who looked like a man.


    Sardine meet the eye everywhere. Fishermen are the upper ones. They control the fate of all. Sardines are the servants of our common people. They serve their fishermen silently, and do not seek to advance, but they are not enterprising.


    "The catfish is the talent airborne by the superior. It is ambitious, means and aggressive. If the superior is not satisfied with the subordinate, or wants the subordinate to do more work, but is unwilling to pay, he will put in a catfish. The catfish is cruel to the inferior and peeps at its position to the superior. These servants have to work hard for the fisherman and look forward to not being eaten by the catfish People who are higher than this catfish are even more conscientious, lest they be replaced by this catfish. "Everyone talks about the broad and penetrating analysis of the catfish effect.


    "But be careful to be a catfish. Although catfish can be superior, they may also be jointly besieged by people. What''s more, we should guard against the fisherman''s remorse and kill the donkey, and kill the catfish to calm the anger of the public." the analysis pointed to the point.


    "Yes! What sun Ju Ren said is very true, but the fisherman should also guard against catfish. If the catfish grows accidentally, it is likely to bite the fisherman."


    "Lower...................."


    Soon, everyone in the restaurant participated in the analysis of the catfish effect. The more they analyzed, the more they felt that they had profound knowledge, and the more they worshipped Mozi.


    In this way, Merton''s plan to become famous as Mozi was successfully implemented.


    "By the way, has anyone studied the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village?" sun Juren suddenly said.


    "No, it''s no use putting catfish in. The top of the catfish lives half an hour longer than usual." someone shook his head and said.


    "Yes, yes, I also tried. There is no much progress at all. I can live for half an hour." another man also answered.


    Sun Juren''s eyes lit up and said, "that''s right. If you can live for half an hour, it shows that the method is right. The catfish effect is really effective, but you don''t know the method yet. You may succeed by experimenting more times."


    The shopkeeper of the restaurant didn''t dare to come up when he saw that he was talking about the catfish effect just now, because he often did so. Now he heard talking about the secret recipe of live fish, so he went forward to add a pot of wine to the people and said with a smile: "You think so, and everyone thinks so. Now almost all the catfish in Chang''an City have been bought. Now the price of catfish has increased five times. Now those who sell fish make more money than I open a restaurant."


    "Yes, yes, there must be some secrets in Mojia village, and the secret skills of live fish will not be so simple." the waiter in the neighboring village quickly agreed with the shopkeeper.


    The bachelor looked at the man and sneered: "it''s needless to say. Mojia village said before that the secret technology of live fish was born out of the catfish effect. If we can easily crack it, how can Mojia village say it in public."


    The restaurant shopkeeper nodded in deep thought. If others asked him about the secret of the restaurant, he would not easily tell others, let alone the living fish secret skill of making a lot of money.


    The man suddenly gloated and said, "I don''t think the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village will be kept secret for long. Shopkeeper Wang on the street has offered a reward. If anyone can crack the secret skills of live fish, he will offer a reward of 500."


    The shopkeeper of the restaurant was surprised and said, "I didn''t expect that Wang tie Rooster plucked his hair and could make five hundred passes."


    Suddenly, the whole restaurant burst into laughter. It was obvious that shopkeeper Wang had a reputation for being stingy.


    Someone shouted, "isn''t that right? Shopkeeper Wang was the largest fish merchant in Chang''an City before. If he gets the secret skill of live fish, he will earn far more than 500 yuan."


    The shopkeeper of the restaurant said, "I''ll tell you! How can this Iron Rooster lose money?"


    "If you want me to say, this time Chi Zhiyong, a fool at the city gate, targeted the Mojia village. It is likely that shopkeeper Wang ordered it." someone in the restaurant whispered.


    The shopkeeper of the restaurant quickly said in a panic, "you can''t talk nonsense."


    The crowd in the restaurant sneered and didn''t talk about it. Obviously, they all set the object of suspicion on shopkeeper Wang. However, shopkeeper Wang is usually very strong and has a background. They don''t want to offend him for nothing.


    Wangjia fish shop.


    Shopkeeper Wang looked at the ten fish basins in front of him with a livid face. There was a layer of dead fish floating in each basin.


    "Why didn''t it succeed? Didn''t Mojia village say that releasing a catfish can stimulate the fish to survive?" shopkeeper Wang roared with an iron face.


    Guys, keep their heads down one by one and don''t dare to offend shopkeeper Wang who is angry and crazy at this time.


    "Maybe it''s fish that''s wrong," said Mohist village, "sardine, and we put grass carp and Bighead." the account behind the manager''s desk was comforting.


    "Yes, Zhao Zhangfang is right. There must be some secrets in Mojia village, but we haven''t found them yet." another man quickly excused himself.


    Sardine, with a frown and a roar, said, "of course, there are secrets. Otherwise, what do I ask you to do? We sell grass carp, not what sardines have never heard of, but of course, let grass carp survive.


    "I don''t believe how long the secret of Mojia village can be kept. Now is there anyone in Chang''an city offering a reward to crack the secret skill of live fish." shopkeeper Wang was furious and turned to Zhao''s accounting room


    Zhao Zhang room shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "others are like us. Although putting in catfish can make the fish live half an hour longer, it is still inevitable to die."


    Shopkeeper Wang was disappointed and said, "how long can they let the fish live in Mojia village?"


    Zhao Jingzhong said, "as far as we know, the last fish sale in Mojia village is in the future. If Mojia village catches the fish from time to time, Mojia village can keep the fish alive for at least five hours."


    "Five hours." shopkeeper Wang''s face slowed slightly.


    "But!" Zhao''s accountant didn''t let shopkeeper Wang rejoice for too long. "As far as we know, after the city gate incident, Mojia village is digging a big fish pond with fresh fish shop to sell fish for a long time. According to my calculation, Mojia village is likely to keep fish alive in the pond.


    "How is that possible?" shopkeeper Wang exclaimed.


    "Very likely!" Zhao Zhang room nodded heavily.


    The whole Wangjia fish shop suddenly fell silent.


    "You must get the secret recipe of live fish."


    For a long time, shopkeeper Wang said, with a trace of cold in his voice.

 Chapter 14

    After the city gate incident, Mojia village realized that its live fish secret skills had been watched by some people in Chang''an city.


    After returning from Chang''an City, the people of Mojia village gathered in Mofu to discuss countermeasures.


    "Chi Zhiyong, a dog official, wants our Mohist live fish secret skill. He doesn''t want to live!" Li Xin roared.


    Li Yi shook his head and said, "Chi Zhiyong is a fart. If you give him ten courage at ordinary times, he doesn''t dare to annoy our Mojia village. This time, there are behind the scenes."


    "Don''t let me know who it is and dare to hit the attention of our Mohist villages. I''ll make him die." Yu Er was also angry.


    "Who do you want to be?" Master Yu patted Li Xin''s head heavily. "If we work hard, we old bones work hard, and we can''t turn you."


    Now not only the hot-blooded boys in Mojia village are filled with righteous indignation, but also the old people in Mojia village are boiling with blood, as if they were back to the time when they went to the battlefield.


    Moreover, these old people know how valuable the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village are, which is related to the fate of 5000 people in Mojia village. Now some people want to move the lifeblood of Mojia village. How can the people of Mojia village not work hard.


    "If you want me to say, I''d better kill Chi Zhiyong, a dog official first, and kill one without losing money." a young Weng like an iron tower, his name is Tie''an, which is the ultimate force in Mojia village.


    Last winter, tie an killed a blind bear alone, got a intact bear skin and sold it at a high price, so that Mojia village survived the crisis. No one can beat the force, but his head is a little wooden and inflexible.


    "Sooner or later, Zhiyong will not hurry to clean up!" Merton waved his hand and said, "sooner or later, he will show his feet and expose the people behind him. We are not in a hurry now. As long as our live fish secret skills are in hand, these people will do it again sooner or later, and no one will run away."


    Everyone nodded. Chi Zhiyong was nothing. What matters is the people behind him.


    "From tomorrow on, we will increase the supply of live fish to Chang''an city. The fish pond of fresh fish shop has been dug. All the spare 20 water tankers will be used. All water tankers will be divided into two teams to continuously transport fish to Chang''an city."


    "I want to sell live fish in Chang''an city all day!" Merton said heavily.


    "But our fish pond won''t last for a few days, and we''ll finish catching the fish." the fish master frowned.


    "If you don''t have fish, you can buy it. We go to so many villages in Chang''an city. Their fish are also dead when they are transported to Chang''an city. The price is 30% higher than that of dead fish."


    "That''s OK!" Li Yi nodded. Even if they were 30% higher, they made a lot of money in Mojia village, because the price of live fish was three times higher than that of dead fish.


    "If you don''t have fish, you can buy them. If you don''t have people, you can continue to recruit people. In short, I want to keep the supply of live fish in Mojia village before the Chinese New Year. This time, I''m going to keep 50 people in Chang''an City for my good brothers." Merton said.


    "Stay in Chang''an city!" Li Xin and others surprised.


    It''s a dream for them to stay in Chang''an city. Since they saw the prosperity of Chang''an City, they yearn for Chang''an city more. They just hurried back after selling fish, and had no chance to wander around Chang''an city.


    "And I will stay in Chang''an city. This time I want to see the one who wants to move our Mojia village!" Merton said in his eyes.


    "No, young master. It''s too dangerous. Young master can''t risk himself." they hurriedly dissuaded.


    "It''s all right. I''ll let tiean and me this time. It''ll be fine." Merton said.


    "Young master, don''t worry. As long as I Tie''an is still breathing, I won''t let the young master get hurt." Tie''an was overjoyed. He didn''t expect that the good thing of staying in Chang''an would be his first turn, and hurriedly promised.


    They also wanted to dissuade, but they were relieved to imagine tiean''s terrible skill.


    After all the people had consulted, they acted individually.


    This time, the team of Mojia village has expanded greatly. There must be 200 people just to recruit new people, not to mention buying fish with nearby villages, but also ensuring the safety of the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village, which is enough for Li Yi and others to be busy.


    One night later, when Merton saw Li Yi''s eyes full of red silk, he knew that he didn''t sleep all night, and he couldn''t help feeling very guilty.


    "Second uncle, you''d better have a rest. If you''re tired, it''s not worth it." Merton said painfully.


    "Don''t worry, young master. The second uncle is in good health? And he has to contact the surrounding villages. I''d better go there!" Li Yi said.


    At Merton''s insistence, Li Yi finally boarded the ox cart where Merton usually didn''t sit, and Merton followed the team with great strides.


    "Maybe it''s time to buy some cattle and horses," Merton said in his heart.


    Merton had thought about buying some cattle and horses before, but it was rejected by Fubo and others. After all, the most urgent thing in Mojia village is food. Mojia village with a full sense of crisis will not consider other extra items if it does not fill the granary.


    "The first group will start, and the second group will leave in an hour." under the cry of Li Yi, the team of Mojia village will start again. But this time it''s bigger.


    "Mojia village is coming!" when the team of Mojia village came to Chang''an city again, it immediately caused a sensation at the South Gate of Chang''an city. After all, the story of Chi Zhiyong and catfish effect in Mojia village yesterday was so wonderful.


    "Look, they say the descendants of Mohism."


    "Mozi can keep his word for thousands of years. This Mojia village is certainly not bad."


    "Not bad. I tell you, I''ve bought fish from Mojia village. I''m never short of weight, only high but not low."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, which made the people of Mohist village proud and proud.


    However, people are more curious about how the Mojia village passes through the South Gate today, because the gate guard is Chi Zhiyong today.


    Chi Zhiyong secretly hates that the secret of Mojia village was destroyed by the counter attack of Mojia village yesterday, so that he didn''t grasp any handle. It made him lose face in front of big people. If he hadn''t been useful, he would have abandoned him.


    Today, Chi Zhiyong made up his mind that once the team of Mojia village entered the south gate, he would not give the people of Mojia village any reaction time and immediately detain a waterwheel. He had already prepared his backhand. Even if the dead were willing, there were big people to protect him.


    However, it was disappointing that the motorcade of Mojia village did not enter the south gate at all, but stopped 100 meters away from the south gate, dumped all the fish in the waterwheel into a fish pond the size of two rooms, and then went back without looking back.


    Then Fubo came out of Chang''an city with 20 water tankers, picked up the fish in the fish pond and loaded it.


    "That''s OK!" Chi Zhiyong was stunned, and the Chang''an citizens who specially came to see the excitement were also stunned.

 Chapter 15

    Chi Zhiyong looked at the waterwheel slowly entering Chang''an city. His hands and feet were cold, because he didn''t even cover the waterwheel. He could clearly see the fish jumping inside.


    "Captain, do you want to do it?" the Deputy urged in a low voice.


    Chi Zhiyong felt cold from head to toe. What else could he do? These water tankers were obviously those fire-fighting water tankers in Chang''an city. Even if they were of any use, they would not have anything but a cart of fish. They would have lost their position as a school captain for nothing.


    "Hum!" a dull hum shocked Chi Zhiyong like thunder.


    But he found a young man like an iron tower staring at him. A fierce spirit came to his face and suffocated him. Chi Zhiyong usually thinks he is brave, but he finds that if he fights with this young man, his chances of survival are almost zero.


    This is a threat to Mojia village


    "Tie''an, let''s go! It''s just a clown!" Merton didn''t look at Chi Zhiyong and led Tie''an into Chang''an city.


    After Tie''an disappeared at the gate, Chi Zhiyong recovered from the oppression of Tie''an.


    "You can''t be proud for a few days!" Chi Zhiyong''s face turned red and full of shame and anger.


    Hey! The people at the gate were suddenly disappointed. They thought it was another battle between dragons and tigers. Unexpectedly, they played a flower gun.


    Mojia village dug a pond outside Nancheng gate as a transfer station for live fish. Nancheng gate is only two miles away from the fish market. This distance has no impact on live fish. Although it wasted its strength, it completely cut off the possibility of leaking secrets.


    This time, the gate of the city was completely difficult for Mojia village. In just a hundred steps, the problem was completely solved. Chi Zhiyong is out of reach to stare.


    "It seems that Mojia village is hard to deal with!" many people secretly said.


    "However, Chi Zhiyong is going to be unlucky. If the live fish secret skill of Mojia village doesn''t pass through the south gate, he will be of no use as a gate official. It depends on whether he can withstand the counterattack of Mojia village." someone secretly looked at Chi Zhiyong.


    Chi Zhiyong obviously knew his situation and hated in his heart: "it''s almost a little!"


    For the first time, he was unprepared and narrowly passed by Merton''s backhand. Originally, he thought that this time he would not give the people of Mohist village any chance. Unexpectedly, Mohist village did better, which directly put an end to the possibility of Chi Zhiyong''s action.


    "Hey!" Chi Zhiyong''s regretful intestines are green. It is not a small captain who can afford to offend the founding County of an empire.


    Mohist fresh fish shop.


    A pond has been dug in the backyard of the whole fresh fish shop,


    The deeper the pond is, the bottom and sides are covered with green bricks and filled with clear water. Twenty carts of fish are put into it. You can clearly see the fish swimming in the water from the bank.


    "Mohist live fish has been upgraded. All live fish can be picked up and supplied continuously all day." the fish master shouted skillfully.


    "It''s really selling fish all day!" shopkeeper pan couldn''t believe it.


    You know, a few days ago, the Mohist School packed up and left immediately after noon, whether the live fish were sold out or not. It was OK to buy it at noon, but it was impossible to eat live fish at night.


    You know, the restaurant''s business is the most popular at night. If they supply live fish all day, wouldn''t their pan restaurant''s business go to a higher level.


    "Of course, this is only the first batch of live fish in Mojia village. There are two convoys in Mojia village, and each convoy has to transport two times, that is to say, there are 60 cars of live fish to Chang''an city. The supply of 40 cars in the morning and 40 cars in the afternoon ensures an adequate supply of live fish." Merton came forward and promised loudly to the fish sellers.


    "Great!" the crowd cheered. These people are hotel managers and big fish buyers. You know, there are no refrigerators in this era. Buying fish in the afternoon will greatly ensure the quality of fish.


    "Please buy whatever you don''t buy. Don''t be discouraged. There must be another batch of live fish in Mojia village before noon." Merton smiled.


    "I want five!"


    "I want ten!"


    "I want two!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When the Mojia village opened up the supply of live fish, the people who bought fish did not rush to buy them. The whole order of buying fish was in order. People pointed to the fish in the pond from time to time and directed the people of Mojia village to salvage it.


    The feeling that so many live fish are allowed to pick up by themselves is really too novel. There are more and more people in the fresh fish shop.


    Seeing that there are fewer and fewer live fish in Mojia village, it will not last long.


    "Here comes the second batch of live fish!" cried fuber in surprise.


    "How close!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he caught up, otherwise he would really cut off the supply.


    With the supply of live fish from car to car, the first show of Mojia village after upgrading is perfect.


    "It''s finally over!"


    When the last guest left and closed the door of the fresh fish shop, everyone in Mojia village was relieved..


    Selling fish continuously all day can make everyone in Mojia village tired. When they are busy, even Merton comes forward to help.


    However, although the people of Mojia village are tired, they look at piles of money, and the complaints in their hearts have long disappeared without a trace. What is their fatigue? Only if we are tired, Mojia village can get rich. Don''t you see the young master working with us.


    Wangjia fish shop!


    "Bang!" shopkeeper Wang angrily smashed his favorite porcelain.


    "He Chi Zhiyong still has the face to come to me! Let him do something and scare the snake. Tell Chi Zhiyong to go away and be strict. If he dares to talk nonsense, I''ll let him go in his pocket," shopkeeper Wang said angrily.


    "Yes!"


    One of the Wangs left in a hurry.


    Zhang looked at the angry shopkeeper Wang and shook his head and smiled bitterly. Chi Zhiyong failed this time. He immediately startled the snake. The fish transport team in Mojia village no longer passed through the city gate. It is no longer possible to obtain the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village.


    "Zhang accounting room, how is our fish shop today!" shopkeeper Wang asked.


    "Back to the shopkeeper, the sales volume of dead fish has not changed, but the sales volume of live fish has declined seriously. Some restaurants buy Mohist live fish," Zhang said.


    Shopkeeper Wang''s face was angry: "these ungrateful villains begged me to buy live fish, but now they abandoned us in the twinkling of an eye."


    Shopkeeper Wang controls the largest live fish market in Chang''an city. At the beginning, he didn''t embarrass those shopkeepers for live fish. Now Feng Shui has changed in turn. The shopkeeper of the restaurant who has other choices abandoned Wang''s fish shop at the first time.


    "The rest of the restaurants have also been talked about. It is said that customers have named to eat the live fish transported by the secret skills of the live fish in Mojia village. If the shopkeeper doesn''t think of a way, it is estimated that the rest of these restaurants will turn to the fish shop in Mojia village." Zhang said bitterly.


    "Bang!" another porcelain was reimbursed by shopkeeper Wang.


    "The Mojia village deceives people too much!" shopkeeper Wang roared.

 Chapter 16

    "By the way! How can the fish in the fresh fish shop survive for a day?" shopkeeper Wang suddenly thought of a question.


    After Chi Zhiyong''s test and the response of Mojia village, everyone knows that the secret skill of living fish in Mojia village is on the waterwheel of Mojia village. But today, the waterwheel of Mojia village has not entered Chang''an city at all, and the live fish in the fresh fish shop can still live well and even survive all day.


    Zhang replied, "according to the villain''s personal observation, the pond dug in the backyard of the fresh fish shop is connected with one of the rooms.


    Shopkeeper Wang frowned and said, "it seems that the secret skill of live fish in Mojia village is in that house."


    "In fact, there is another way to get the secret skills of live fish." Zhang thought deeply.


    "Then hurry up!" shopkeeper Wang said anxiously.


    Now, although the live fish business in Mojia village is very small, it occupies the high-end market with booming business and huge profits. Although Wangjia fish shop occupies most of the fish market in Chang''an City, most of the profits are from the low-end market such as dead fish.


    Moreover, the fresh-keeping period of dead fish is very short. If you can''t sell it, it will hit your hands. Business is difficult to do and the profit is low. If you can get the secret recipe of live fish in Mojia village, all the fish in Wangjia fish shop live freely in the water and raise them while selling, you won''t be afraid of dead fish hitting your hands any more.


    Thinking of such a vast live fish market, shopkeeper Wang was even more eager.


    "Cooperation!" Zhang said heavily.


    Zhang''s accounting room whispered a few times in shopkeeper Wang''s ear, and shopkeeper Wang immediately smiled.


    "Cooperation?"


    In the fresh fish shop, Merton looked suspiciously at the Zhang accounting room in front of him.


    "Yes," said Zhang, with a beard. "Our Wangjia fish shop controls the trading of more than half of the fish in Chang''an City, and Mojia village has mastered the secret skills of live fish. If we cooperate with each other, the whole fish market in Chang''an city will be our world." Zhang said generously.


    "At that time, the income of Mojia village will be dozens or hundreds of times that of now," Zhang continued.


    "That''s great!" Li Yi said happily. "If that''s true, Mojia village will be saved."


    The rest of the Mohist villagers also looked happy and yearned for the beautiful scenery envisaged by Zhang''s accounting room.


    Merton was not dazzled by the huge and said, "that is to say, the live fish secret skills of Mojia village need to be shared with Wangjia fish shop in the future."


    "Of course, our Wang family is out of most of the market, and it''s reasonable for you to show the secret skills of live fish." Zhang accountant nodded.


    Not only shopkeeper Wang, but also some Mohist villagers showed their approval.


    Li Yi looked hesitant, but he couldn''t see any trap.


    Merton''s heart was cold. The seemingly fair transaction was actually the biggest trap.


    Once Wang''s fish shop obtains the live fish secret skill of Mojia village, there will be nothing about his Mojia village. Zhang''s seemingly beautiful promise is actually a poison smeared with honey.


    Merton came from later generations and had a clear insight into this rotten Street trick for a long time.


    "I object!" Merton said suddenly, leaving everyone stunned.


    "Why?" Zhang accountant couldn''t believe it. When he saw that everyone in Mojia village was moved, he was secretly proud.


    "The secret recipe of live fish in Mojia village can only be mastered in the hands of Mojia village and can''t be disclosed to the outside world." Merton stared at Zhang accounting room word by word.


    "Yes, it is absolutely impossible for Mojia village to reveal the secret recipe of live fish." Li Yi also woke up from the temptation


    More and more people in Mojia village figured out the joints and stared at Zhang''s accounting room.


    "Well, you cunning little thief, dare to hit the attention of our Mojia village live fish secret recipe. I won''t kill you!" tie an roared and stepped forward to teach Zhang accounting room a lesson.


    "Tie''an, stop." Merton was born and saved Zhang''s accounting room in the hands of Tie''an.


    "But Mojia village and Wang''s shop can''t cooperate," Merton said slowly.


    "Young master!" Li Yi was anxious to stop Merton.


    Merton raised his hand and interrupted Li Yi: "in fact, we can cooperate in another way.


    "How can we cooperate?" Zhang longed.


    "If Wang''s fish shop wants live fish business, it can buy from nanchengmen. Our Mojia village is willing to wholesale you live fish at a preferential price." Merton said.


    "Young master is wise!" Li Yi admires.


    The people in Mojia village also nodded in agreement. This method will not reveal the secret skills of live fish, but also increase the income. It is killing two birds with one stone.


    Zhang''s face turned red and said, "if Mojia village is not willing to cooperate, why tease others. Don''t forget that our Wang family is the largest fish merchant in Chang''an city. If Mojia village wants to stay in Chang''an City for a long time, it depends on whether you have that ability."


    "Touch!" Zhang''s accounting room was thrown out of the fresh fish shop by tie an.


    "By the way, the young master asked you to tell Chi Zhiyong that the young master remembered him." tie an Weng said.


    Zhang''s account room was shocked. Did they know that Chi Zhiyong ordered them to leave quickly.


    "Young master, how do you know that Chi Zhiyong was ordered by the Wangs fish shop?" Li Yi''s voice came from behind the door of the fresh fish shop.


    Merton smiled and said, "I didn''t know. Now I know."


    Wangjia fish shop


    "Bang bang"


    There was a sound of broken bottles. Shopkeeper Wang didn''t remember how many bottles he fell.


    "The Mojia village is really deceiving people too much. We want Wang''s fish shop to wholesale to him. I''ll see the Yellow haired boy''s face in the future." shopkeeper Zhang roared.


    Wang''s fish shop is the largest fish merchant in Chang''an city. Now it has become a second-class dealer. Shopkeeper Wang can''t accept such a gap in status.


    Moreover, it seems that the people of Mojia village already know what Chi Zhiyong ordered us to do. " Zhang said cautiously.


    "Hum! What can I do if I know? That yellow haired boy is just a broken County uncle. What can he do for me?" shopkeeper Wang said proudly.


    "Shopkeeper, this Mojia village is really disrespectful. The villain has privately contacted several villagers of Mojia village. He doesn''t know what medicine these villagers have taken. No matter how much benefits the villain gives, he won''t reveal the secret of live fish in Mojia village." Zhang accountant said.


    "Mojia village, since you don''t appreciate it, don''t blame me for being rude." shopkeeper Wang said ferociously.


    Wang''s fish shop can be the first in Chang''an city. It doesn''t rely on business skills, but on the evil force that dominates the fish market - the fish gang.


    Over the years, shopkeeper Wang not only used the fish Gang to wantonly suppress competitors, drive up prices and make business bigger. Let the fish help him deal with some sins.


    The citizens of Chang''an City hate the fish Gang even more. However, shopkeeper Wang has a strong background. The fish Gang is growing stronger and more rampant. He does all kinds of evil in private, and has become a hidden harm to Chang''an city.

 Chapter 17

    "Young master! No!"


    Merton, Fubo and more than 50 villagers of Mojia village stayed in Chang''an City and were happily counting today''s harvest. Suddenly, they saw a Li Xin rush in.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton said hurriedly.


    "Yuer was caught by the fish Gang!" Li Xin said in panic.


    "Don''t worry, speak slowly!" Merton comforted Li Xin and sat down.


    In Li Xin''s slow narration, it turned out that Li Xin and Yu Er admired the prosperity of Chang''an city. After the fresh fish shop was finished, they agreed to go to Chang''an City together. Unexpectedly, they came out of the door of the fresh fish shop and were watched by the people of the fish gang.


    "The fish Gang blocked us in a dead end. Seeing that Yu Er couldn''t run away, he made a foot pad and asked me to climb over the wall and leave. Yu Er was caught by them." Li Xin''s eyes were red and said in pain.


    "It''s bold! It seems that our Mojia village has been dormant for too long. Even a small fish Gang dare to tease us." Fubo roared, and an iron blood momentum suddenly rose.


    "Give them a fight!" a group of hot-blooded young men stayed in Chang''an in Mojia village. Chi Zhiyong was angry a few days ago. Now he was bullied by the fish gang. All his anger finally broke out.


    "Young master, let me Tie''an go! I''ve been unhappy with the fish gang for a long time." Tie''an said in a low voice.


    "Young master, don''t!" no one thought that it was master fish who came out to stop saving people.


    "Uncle Yu, Yuer is your son. What do you think?" Merton asked in surprise.


    "Young master, of course I want to save Yuer, but the more so, the more we can''t act recklessly. It may be the conspiracy of the old man Wang!"


    In the past, the salted fish in Mojia village were sold by the fish master in Chang''an. He clearly knew the relationship between the fish gang and Wang''s fish shop, plus the backstage of Wang''s fish shop. If Merton acts recklessly today and causes trouble in Chang''an City, he will save Yu Er and Merton will be punished by the imperial court.


    At present, Mojia village is in a difficult situation and barely maintains. But if you lose the secret skill of live fish, it will be the disaster for Mojia village.


    "This matter needs to be considered in the long run. I guarantee that Yu Er will never reveal the secret of live fish in Mojia village." Master Yu said sadly.


    Of course he knows his own son, but whether Yu Er can come back alive this time depends on the luck of Mojia village. He will not hesitate to sacrifice his son for the sake of Mojia village with 5000 people.


    "Fish master!" Merton was moved.


    "Old fish!..." Fubo patted the fish master heavily, not only the fish master. When Chi Zhiyong forced Mojia village, Fubo and other old guys had long thought of working hard. Mojia village had nothing to lose except dignity. If Merton hadn''t thought of the way to use nanchengmen as a transfer station, Chi Zhiyong would never have survived yesterday.


    The hearts of the people in Mojia village were heavy, and they were filled with righteous indignation.


    "No, fish two must be saved!" Merton said flatly.


    "Young master!..." master fish wants to stop it.


    "Uncle Yu, don''t say it. Don''t say that Yu Er is my brother. I will try my best to save anyone in Mojia village, even if I lose the secret skill of live fish." Merton said loudly.


    "Young master!" the people in Mojia village were deeply moved.


    "No, the secret skill of living fish is the lifeblood of our Mojia village!" Jiao said.


    "A little secret skill of living fish is not worth the lives of our children in Mojia village. There are many secret skills like this in my mind!" Murton Lang said.


    "But since we can''t be reckless, we should think of a panacea." Merton''s eyes flashed.


    Fish Gang station.


    The whole fish sect is dignified and like a great enemy.


    The guild leader told us tonight that all members of the guild should keep up their spirits and deal with those who are slack according to the guild rules.


    Everyone''s heart was cold. Thinking of the terrible Gang rules, they couldn''t help fighting a cold war from the bottom of their heart.


    In the dungeon.


    Yu Er was tied up and hung there. Ding Jiang, the leader of Yu Gang, looked at Yu Er with a ferocious face.


    "Boy of Mojia village, as long as you honestly explain the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village, I promise you will still be alive tomorrow, but if you don''t say it, your family will wait to collect your body at luanfenggang." Ding Jiang threatened.


    "The hero runs for his life! The villain is just an ordinary cart puller in Mojia village and is only responsible for making coolies." Yu Er seems to be stunned. In fact, Yu Er has been selling fish in Chang''an city with the fish master. He knows the importance of the secret skills of live fish to Mojia village. He doesn''t intend to say the secret skills of live fish at all. He just wants to protect himself.


    "Hmm? It seems that you don''t want to tell the truth. Call me!" Ding Jiang said ruthlessly.


    Suddenly, two vicious fish gangs beat the fish two.


    "Sect leader Ding, I''m really just a coachman. The Mojia village hides the secret of live fish. Only the young master and a limited number of people know it! Even if you kill me, I don''t know!" Yu Er cried sadly, desperately diverting Ding Jiang''s attention.


    "Hum! It''s a dead duck with a hard mouth. Look who it is?" Ding Jiang raised his hand and came into a timid figure. It was the waiter of the pan restaurant and the Chuang Tzu of the neighboring village of Mojia village.


    "Tell the sect leader that he is the son of Master Yu, Yu Er. If someone in Mojia village knows the secret of live fish, his father will know it.


    "Guo Wei, you betrayed us." the second fish looked at Guo Wei and roared. He was wondering how the fish Gang could catch him so accurately. It turned out that Guo Wei identified him behind his back.


    Mojia village and Guojia village are neighboring villages. There is constant friction between the two villages. Guo Wei and Yu Er have fought several times, which naturally gives rise to hatred, but he didn''t expect Guo Wei to join the fish gang.


    "Yuer, what else do you have to say now." Ding Jiang''s eyes are not good.


    "My father does know the secret of live fish, but he never told me." Yu Er knows he can''t say it. Once he tells the secret of live fish, the fish gang will kill him.


    "Keep fighting!" Ding Jiang was furious.


    The two thugs came forward immediately. This time, they focused on the key points, and the fish vomited blood in two big mouths.


    "Catfish effect, catfish effect is true, and the secret of live fish is in it!" Yu Er couldn''t help but confide a little secret.


    "I''m still lying. Now everyone in Chang''an city doesn''t know this. Many people are experimenting with the catfish effect. If none of them is successful, what''s the use!" Ding Jiang himself has experimented with the catfish effect. Of course, he knows the final result.


    "That''s the fish you used. Sardine is a fish in the sea. You can use catfish. We can''t use catfish in the river." fish two took a reason.


    "Tell me what fish to use!" Ding Jiang said fiercely.


    "I''m afraid you don''t dare to use it!" the second fish spit out a little blood foam and said ruthlessly.


    "Joke, what other fish do I dare not use?" Ding Jiang said arrogantly.


    "It''s a carp! A carp of more than 20 kilograms!" Yu Er said slowly, staring at Ding Jiang.


    "Carp!" Ding Jiang exclaimed.


    In this era, carp are not as overwhelming as those in later generations. Because carp know Li and are the surname of the state, since Li Tang won the world, he once ordered that if he dared to catch and kill carp, he would be imprisoned. In this way, no one dared to eat carp among the people,


    No wonder, no one experimented with the secret of live fish. No one used the right fish more and more. Ding Jiang thought more and more likely. No one dared to use carp. No wonder the secret of live fish was not experimented.


    "Yuer, if you dare to lie to me, you know what will happen." Ding Jiang threatened.


    Yu Er nodded quickly and prayed in his heart. Li Xin, you must hurry up. Now he can only buy himself an hour.

 Chapter 18

    "Guild leader, do you think we should take the fish two!" Guo Wei made a neck wiping action and said ruthlessly.


    "Don''t worry, it''s still useful to keep the second fish. First test whether the carp tube works! If it''s true, it''s useless. It''s up to you to deal with it." Ding Jiang snapped.


    "More guild leaders!" Guo Wei said with great joy. He had a deep contradiction with Yu Er. This time, he could finally take revenge.


    An hour passed quickly.


    "Guild leader, the experiment failed, and all the fish turned white." Guo Wei Ran in a panic.


    "Yuer, you''re a bear and a leopard. You dare to tease me." Ding Jiang was furious and stormed into the dungeon.


    "Hit me hard," roared Ding Jiang.


    Ding Jiang is a bully in Chang''an city. No one dared to tease him like this for a long time.


    Guo Wei immediately came forward with his dog leg and beat the fish two with a whip and stick. In an instant, the fish two were bleeding all over his face.


    "Hahaha! The secret skill of living fish is the lifeblood of Mojia village. Even if I die, I won''t tell you." the fish spat blood and laughed wildly.


    "Why? It''s been more than an hour now. The people of Mojia village must know that you have been captured and haven''t come to save you. They must have given up you. Why do you have to die in vain for Mojia village?" Ding Jiang attacked his heart.


    "So what? Five thousand people in our Mojia village are crying for food and are in danger every day. For the sake of Mojia village, not to mention sacrificing one person, even ten people and a hundred people are not afraid." Yu Er said firmly.


    "Up to now, you still have a hard mouth. I think you are very good at lying. If you cut off your tongue, see if you can still cheat." Ding Jiang, holding a sharp knife, clamped Yu Er''s tongue and threatened.


    "Ha ha, Yuer, you have today, and you will be called dumb Yuer in the future." Guo Wei laughed.


    "Wow!" the fish turned pale and struggled desperately.


    "The sect leader is not good. The Mojia village has found him!" a fish Gang thug said flustered.


    "Mojia village?" Ding Jiang''s face changed. When he used to run the fish market, only the protection tax of Mojia village could not come up. The two sides had played against each other several times, but he knew how strong the combat effectiveness of Mojia village was.


    "How many people come!"


    "Three people!" replied the thug, "one is the runaway Li Xin, the other two are the young master Merton of Mojia village and a big tall man."


    "They want to trade live fish for fish two!" the thug added.


    "What?" everyone in the dungeon was shocked.


    "They want to trade live fish for fish two, but they want to ensure the safety of fish two." the thug said definitely. He couldn''t believe it at that time. After confirming it several times, he quickly informed the sect leader.


    "Woo woo!" Yu Er struggled violently. Of course, he knew how important the secret skills of Mohist live fish were to Mohist village. Now, Yu Er couldn''t help regretting because he wanted to leak the secret. If he hadn''t been greedy for the prosperity of Chang''an City, how could Mohist village suffer such a crisis.


    "Hahaha! Look after him. Don''t let him have any mistakes. It seems that today is a broken iron shoe. There is nowhere to find it. It takes no effort to get it." Ding Jiang was overjoyed and walked out of the dungeon, ignoring the wailing fish two.


    Outside the gate of the fish sect.


    "You are Merton!" Ding Jiang led a large number of fish gangs, strode out and stared at Merton fiercely.


    "Bold, Ding Jiang, you are looking at the founder of the Empire. You should call him by his name. What should you do?" Li Xin shouted.


    "Oh, so I have to salute like you, a yellow haired boy." Ding Jiang said cruelly.


    He made it clear that Merton was an Imperial County uncle, but merlie had already died and had no power at all.


    "Ha ha!" the fish Gang laughed and looked at Merton and Li Xin.


    "You''re not afraid that I''ll kill you." Ding Jiang said fiercely.


    Merton''s face didn''t change. He sneered and said, "I''m the founder of the Empire. Although I don''t have real power, if I really encounter an accident in Chang''an City, not to mention your little fish Gang, even the people behind you will disappear."


    Dingjiang and the fish Gang could not help but change their faces. He could not care about Merton, but they could not care about the government. If a founder County uncle had an accident, the whole fish gang would never survive tomorrow.


    "Indeed, I really won''t touch you, but others are not necessarily. I heard that you lost someone. Maybe I can help you find it. If you''re late, maybe I''ll find it in the random grave." Ding Jiang shouted and threatened.


    "You..." Li Xin said angrily.


    "Well, we don''t talk in secret. I''ve brought the live fish secret skill. Now you go and hand over the fish two. I want to ensure that the fish two is intact, or the live fish secret skill will be destroyed immediately." Merton patted the waterwheel behind him, put his hand next to a handle and threatened.


    "It''s such a waterwheel!" a gang saw the waterwheel whispering in Dingjiang''s ear. He had followed the team of Mojia village for a long time and was very familiar with the waterwheel of Mojia village.


    Ding Jiang was so happy that he couldn''t help but want to take it back directly. However, seeing Merton holding the mechanism in his hand, he couldn''t help but give up the idea. He knew that the Mojia village was at the Nancheng gate, but he instantly destroyed the live fish secret skill, which made Chi Zhiyong disheartened.


    "Well, since Mojia village pays such a reward, it happens that my fish gang has ordered to go down and look for people who have lost their lives in Mojia village. Unexpectedly, you came as soon as you found them." Ding Jiang looked happy and waved, "come here, please invite our expensive guests."


    "Yes!" two fish Gang thugs left and went to the dungeon to pick up people.


    "Guo Wei, open the door quickly. The guild leader asked me to bring out the second fish." in front of the dungeon, the thug patted the doorway.


    "OK," Guo Wei said with a reluctant expression. "He has a grudge against Yu Er. He doesn''t want to let Yu Er go like this."


    "Hurry up, the guild leader is preparing to exchange him for live fish!" the thug urged.


    With a squeak, the dungeons opened heavily.


    I saw a big knife across the Thug''s neck. The thug looked frightened. There was a strong smell of blood behind him. A thug fell in a pool of blood.


    "No!"


    Guo Wei was so frightened that he couldn''t help being scared. Just when he wanted to shout, he was kicked off, hit the wall heavily and fainted.


    "Fish two, wake up!"


    "Dad!" the second fish opened his heavy eyes and saw the fish master and Fu Bo in front of him.


    "Dad, I didn''t say, I didn''t say." the fish murmured unconsciously.


    "Dad knows, dad always believes in you!" the fish master burst into tears.


    "Don''t sleep yet. Dad will take you out later." the fish master took the fish two up and walked out of the dungeon with a long knife.

 Chapter 19

    Fish sect gate.


    Merton and Dingjiang confronted each other. They were anxious.


    Merton is worried about whether there is a situation in the rescue process, but Merton still overestimates the fish gang. These people are just a mob, which can''t compare with the operating veterans of Mojia village.


    Ding Jiang has a trace of anxiety in his heart. He has been gone for a lot of time. Why hasn''t he sent Yu Er yet.


    "There are thieves!"


    Suddenly, there was a noise in the backyard of the fish gang,


    "Don''t let him run away!" someone shouted:


    "You are so ambitious that you dare to play Laozi by trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain." Ding Jiang was shocked, his face changed and stared at Merton and his party fiercely.


    Morton''s face sank and said, "why did sect leader Ding say this? Our Mojia village is very sincere in exchange. There is nothing to do with the affairs in your sect."


    Merton was anxious and tried his best to buy more time for the fish master and others.


    "No, Yuer ran away!" an accomplice ran out covered with blood and shouted.


    Ding Jiang was furious. He pointed the fish killing knife at Merton and shouted, "you lied to me. Since the second fish ran away, you can stay!"


    Ding Jiang analyzed the situation in an instant. Now he has lost his first chance. Now he has only one way to go, that is to grab the waterwheel!


    As long as he grabs the waterwheel and obtains the secret skill of live fish, he will make great achievements. Naturally, someone will protect him.


    "I don''t see who dares!"


    The water wheel burst when it touched, and a figure broke out with a roar.


    "Tie an!" Ding Jiang exclaimed.


    He recognized that it was tie an, the number one thug in Mojia village, who came out of the fish cart, but tie an was too abnormal at this time. He was wearing armor, one holding a shield and the other holding a long knife.


    At the moment, Tie''an is like a humanoid monster. His shield is hard to resist the attack of more than a dozen fish Gang thugs. When he goes down, the fish Gang thugs'' harpoon and knife are broken into two sections. He cuts down several fish gang members as if they were killing God. The strong smell of blood makes the fish gang members retreat with uncontrollable fear.


    "You, you even use military weapons in Chang''an city. Are you not afraid of killing yourself if you don''t succeed in rebellion?" Ding Jiang yelled at Tie''an.


    After all, the fish Gang is a gang. What they usually use is nothing but sticks, harpoons and so on. Even when they work hard, they just use machetes and axes. I have never seen military weapons such as armor and shield.


    "Joke, my young master is the founder''s uncle, and Tie''an is my episode. Not only Tie''an, but also the second fish you caught is also my episode. In the important place of the Empire, you openly kidnapped the soldiers of the Empire. Ding Jiang, how many heads do you have enough to cut off?" Merton retorted.


    "Today, only the chief villains are killed in Mojia village. If you dare to resist, don''t blame my men for their ruthlessness." tie an''s cold voice came from the armor, adding a sense of awe.


    "You''re all stupid! He''s only three people. We have dozens of people. Catch the young master! He''s not obedient in Mojia village."


    Ding Jiang roared and led his confidants to bypass Tie''an and prepare to catch Merton.


    Merton was shocked, and Li Xin held the water tanker board, barely protecting themselves.


    "Get out of here!" Tie''an tried to rescue and protect Merton, but there were many people on the other side, but Tie''an took care of himself and lost the other, and kept retreating back. The space was getting smaller and smaller, and it was almost unstoppable.


    "Why don''t you come yet!" said Merton urgently. According to the agreement, once the people of Mojia village rescue Yuer, they immediately level the fish gang. What''s the situation.


    Something really happened.


    Li Yi''s face was gloomy. He stared at Chi Zhiyong with a sly smile in front of him. He didn''t expect that shopkeeper Wang was so cruel. He arranged Chi Zhiyong to patrol the city and ambush him here. He really underestimated him.


    "The bold bandit hid weapons and used swords in Chang''an city. I don''t think you want to rebel!" Chi Zhiyong looked cruel and insisted that Li Yi and others were bandits and wanted to rule the Mohist village to death.


    Li Yi was very angry. Today, in order to save Yuer, only Fubo, the master of tiean fish, brought weapons in Mojia village. Others just brought wooden sticks. When Chi Zhiyong came to his mouth, he could become a bandit who violated the law and discipline.


    "General Chi, I think it''s a misunderstanding. Our Mojia village received a big order. The person who came to sell fish is not a bandit!" Li Yi retorted.


    "Whether it''s a bandit or not, you can''t help it! Come on, take all the bandits down for me." Chi Zhiyong said fiercely, and a large group of soldiers poured out in an instant.


    The form suddenly deteriorated, and the Mojia village was at a critical juncture of life and death.


    "Wait!" a loud cry came, and another pair of men and horses poured out to block the gate guard.


    "Constable Cao!" Chi Zhiyong stared with hatred in his heart. He didn''t expect to be destroyed by Wannian County Yamen at the critical moment. In front of him, it was Wannian County Constable Cao Li


    "Constable Cao, what do you mean and why do you stop me from catching villains?" Chi Zhiyong shouted.


    "Coincidentally, I''m here to catch the villains today," Cao Li said. "And these people you want to catch are the victims."


    Chi Zhiyong didn''t understand that he was too stupid. Shopkeeper Wang asked him to take charge of the fish Gang to ensure everything was safe. By the way, he eliminated the biggest competitor of Mojia village, and Mojia village had long been prepared. Constable Cao was invited to help.


    "Are you sure you want to fight, you are not afraid of the people behind me!" Chi Zhiyong threatened.


    Cao Li''s face remained unchanged. He took out a token in his hand and lit up in Chi Zhiyong''s eyes. He said, "aren''t you afraid of the people behind Mojia village.


    Looking at the token in front of him, Chi Zhiyong''s face suddenly turned white, and his cold sweat flowed down. He saw three words engraved on the token, the Duke of Yi.


    "General Qin?" Chi Zhiyong whispered.


    Cao Li nodded and said, "we can''t participate in the affairs of great people. How about watching it."


    Chi Zhiyong reluctantly dropped his weapons, and the city gate guard was relieved one after another.


    With a wave of Cao Li''s hand, the people of Mojia village immediately rushed to the fish Gang station to rescue Merton.


    So far away, everyone in Mojia village saw that Tie''an was protecting Merton Lixin while fighting and retreating. If it weren''t for Tie''an''s fierce fish Gang, they wouldn''t dare to force too much, Merton would have been unable to hold on.


    "Give it to me." Li Yi roared and rushed up first.


    With the new force of Mojia village, the form immediately fell to one side and escorted Merton to a safe place. Tie an finally spread his hands and feet like a tiger down the mountain. Everywhere he went, the fish helped everyone turn their horses.


    After two or three rounds, the fish Gang quickly collapsed and Ding Jiang was shocked and angry. He couldn''t understand why Chi Zhiyong didn''t stop the people of Mojia village.


    Ding Jiang was bitter when he watched the children of the fish gang knocked over to the ground. He knew that there might be no fish Gang after today,


    Ding Jiang wanted to escape, but he was stared at by tie an. As his confidants were chopped down by tie an, soon there was only Ding Jiang, a barehanded commander.


    I fought with you!


    Ding Jiang has no way to retreat. He rushes to Tie''an in vain and is chopped to the ground by Tie''an.


    So far, the fish gang that ran rampant in Chang''an city was destroyed.

 Chapter 20

    When Ding Jiang was finished, shopkeeper Wang sighed when he got the news of the destruction of the fish gang.


    The fish gang used to be his most powerful thug. He also helped him do a lot of dirty things before. This time, the collapse of the fish gang was beyond his expectation. He didn''t expect that the Mojia village had the token of Lord Yi. Please move Constable Cao to support him. Let him think that the foolproof arrangement fell short, and lost Ding Jiang, a thug. The loss is not small.


    "What a pity!" shopkeeper Wang respectfully stood behind Wang Zhe, the censor doctor. When he heard Wang Zhe sigh, he hurriedly said: the master is worried too much. It''s just a small fish gang. When the villains go back, they will try their best to help the master.


    "Fool, what is a fish Gang? I''m talking about the secret skills of Mohist live fish." Wang Yushi said angrily,


    "If this magic skill is in the hands of my Wang family, it will play a more important role than this. The whole world''s fisheries will control our hands."


    Shopkeeper Wang''s heart was shocked. He didn''t expect that the Royal History of Wang had a great plan, but he didn''t do it himself.


    "Don''t worry, sir. I''ll arrange it after I go back. I must take the secret skill of live fish." shopkeeper Wang promised.


    "It''s late!"


    Wang Yushi shook his head. With the support of Yi Guogong, it is impossible to get the live fish secret skill of Mojia village again.


    "Don''t you really have a chance?" shopkeeper Wang said reluctantly. In his heart, the energy of the king''s censor is very huge. Anything can help him settle before.


    "Of course there''s a chance?" Wang smiled and said: since we can''t get it alone, let Mojia village disclose the secret skills of live fish.


    "How can Mojia village be willing to open?" shopkeeper Wang didn''t believe that Mojia village worked so hard for the secret skills of live fish and would be willing to open the secret skills of live fish for free.


    "Don''t worry, he will make it public!" Wang Yushi said confidently.


    "Come on, change my official clothes. It''s time to go to court." Wang Yushi looked at the white sky in the East and took a deep breath.


    As an emperor, especially an emperor with black spots and a sense of shame, Li Shimin is conscientious. He tried his best to build himself into a Mingjun, trying to prove that the Xuanwumen coup was right. He is the most suitable person to lead the country, and in fact, he did.


    It is said that Qin Shihuang read memorials every day, and if the paper in front of Li Shimin was carved into bamboo slips, it would be more or less.


    After Li Shimin handled today''s government affairs, eunuch manager pound shouted knowingly: if there is something to start, leave the court if there is nothing to do.


    "The minister has a book to play." the Royal historian of the king lined up in response.


    "Accurate playing!" Li Shimin cheered up.


    Wang Yushi looked at Qin Qiong in the front row and said in a loud voice, "the minister wants to impeach burmerton of Kaiguo County for openly doing business, competing for interests with the people, and openly using swords in Chang''an City for personal interests, forming an accomplice."


    "Burmerton, founding county?" Li Shimin looked at pound suspiciously. Since Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he has been very familiar with various meritorious officials. He can''t remember that there is a man named Merton in Bozhong, Kaiguo county.


    "It seems to be the son of Hou merlie in Kaiguo county." pound also hesitated.


    "Oh! Mo lie!" Li Shimin suddenly realized and remembered the former general. It''s sad to die young.


    "Yes, he is the son of Bo molie in Kaiguo county. He is nearly 15 years old, but he is very philistine and rebellious. He was originally an earl of the Empire, but he was greedy for small profits and sold fish for profit. Because of the contradiction, he fought openly with the fish merchant Ding Jiang and Chang''an city. Please your majesty order to thoroughly investigate this philistine." Wang Yushi seemed to be righteous and filled with righteous indignation.


    "Oh! My count went to sell fish, but it happened!" Li Shimin was obviously more interested in a count selling fish. As for the number of fights in Chang''an City, I don''t know.


    "Tell your majesty! I can prove that burmerton of Kaiguo county did sell fish in Chang''an city. I saw it with my own eyes. It was a sensation in the city at that time." Ma Zhou said that he was a Confucian scholar in blue at that time. He saw the scene of Merton entering Chang''an City for the first time. He had a deep image of the distinguished young man who hawked along the street without changing his face.


    "It''s really a sensation in the whole city. How can a founder of the Empire not sell fish?" Wei Zheng said sarcastically. He was upright and couldn''t mix a little sand in his eyes. He couldn''t help but be dissatisfied with Merton''s founder''s selling fish. It''s really disgraceful to the Empire.


    "Lord Wei doesn''t know. What the lower officer said caused a sensation in the whole city is something else. I don''t know if Lord Wei has heard the two words recently preached in Chang''an City, live fish secret skills and catfish effect." Ma Zhou bowed and said.


    "Catfish effect, secret skill of living fish!" the ministers suddenly realized.


    "What is the catfish effect? The secret of living fish!" Li Shimin wondered.


    "Tell your majesty that the secret skills of live fish and catfish effect were introduced into Chang''an City when Bo Merton of Kaiguo county came to sell fish in Chang''an city." Ma Zhou told the story of Mojia village''s experience of selling fish in Chang''an city.


    "Catfish effect! Mozi not only has great wisdom, but also has the style of a gentleman. He has kept his word for thousands of years!" Li Shimin''s eyes are shining, obviously infected by Mozi''s story.


    Those who can rank in the court are people''s dragons and phoenixes. With their knowledge, they can certainly understand the catfish effect, and they often use this method.


    "That''s the case. A dignified founder should not openly engage in business. What''s the face of the Empire?" Wei Zheng said unhappily.


    "What Lord Wei said is that such Philistines simply don''t deserve the imperial title and deserve the grace of his majesty." the king''s Royal Shi fell down the well.


    Li Shimin also nodded slightly. After all, a xianbo''s business violated the imperial law and allowed the episode to use swords in Chang''an city. If it is not severely punished, I''m afraid everyone will not accept it.


    Li Shimin was about to order a thorough investigation. Suddenly Qin Qiong stepped out and bowed down and said, "tell your majesty, please ask for a favor for Mojia village."


    Qin Qiong immediately surprised everyone as soon as she stepped out of the line. She was cautious when she was fair and did not participate in government affairs at ordinary times. Unexpectedly, she openly opposed Wang Yushi this time.


    "Qin Aiqing, if you have something to say, is there any secret!" Li Shimin was surprised. He didn''t expect that Qin Qiong, who has always kept a low profile, would plead for Mojia village.


    "Mojia village is the poorest village in Chang''an." when Qin Qiong said this, the whole court was in an uproar.


    "No!"


    "So poor!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There are not a few feudal princes in the whole dynasty. Their own land is not rich, but it is definitely much stronger than other ordinary villages.


    "Don''t marry Mojia village. You''d rather stay by the river." Ma Zhou sighed.


    "Hiss!"


    The ministers took a breath. This half poem is not endless. They even threw away their daughter-in-law and don''t want to suffer in Mojia village. How poor will the Mojia village be.


    "But Merton collects money recklessly, or the villagers are lazy?" Li Shimin said coldly.


    Qin Qiong shook her head and said: "No, Mohist village is the fief of marquis Mohist of Kaiguo county. Mohist eats thousands of families. Most of the villagers in the village are retired and disabled veterans of the divine work camp, who are loyal to Mohist. Mohist and Merton''s father and son also relinquish the spirit of universal love of Mohist. All disabled veterans who can''t live in the divine work camp treat them equally. As a result, Mohist is the only one who has been granted thousands of titles, with many people and barren land He is good at farming. Every year, Muriel and his son fill in the title and salary to barely maintain it. "


    Qin Qiong glanced at the civil servants. Many civil servants bowed their heads with guilty conscience. Confucianism and Mohism opposed each other. As Confucian disciples, they were not soft at all in the face of a Mohist child. The land allocated was barren wasteland, which could not be collected enough every year.


    Li Shimin was shocked. He didn''t think that Mohist village was so difficult, and mohlie''s father and son also attached great importance to love and righteousness.


    "Mo lie!"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking of the man that everyone admired. He was always in black clothes, with an expression of perseverance like a knife, an axe and a chisel, and a sense of mission that he wanted to carry forward the responsibility of Mohism, which is unforgettable so far.

 Chapter 21

    Most of the ministers in the court were silent. Among them, there were either ten thousand families or ten thousand hectares of fertile land at home, but absolutely no one treated his tenant farmers like muriat''s father and son.


    It is reasonable to say that Molian and his son can live well without asking their tenants. Even if their hearts are a little bad, they can squeeze the tenants desperately. How can they fall to the point of selling fish.


    "Mo lie is really a righteous man!" Wei Zheng was so arrogant that he could not help nodding and praising.


    "So Merton led the Mohist village to sell fish in Chang''an. It''s really reasonable."


    "Yes"


    ¡­¡­


    The ministers in the court and the central government talked about it one after another. Thousands of families in the whole Mojia village can''t eat and don''t let others sell fish to survive.


    "I''m ashamed of Mo Aiqing!" said Li Shimin in shame. "Come and give a reward of twelve Liang and a thousand loads of grain to Mojia village immediately."


    Wang Yushi''s heart is blocked for a while, your majesty! Didn''t you hear what I just said? He''s still using swords in Chang''an city. It''s a crime of heavy rain.


    Qin Qiong shook her head and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, it''s not necessary, because Mojia village will not be poor anymore."


    Li Shimin was very puzzled. Just now he was talking about how bitter Mojia village was. Now he even postponed the reward! The heart moved and said, "is it a secret skill of living fish!"


    "Yes, it''s the secret skill of living fish!" Qin Qiong nodded: "Inspired by the catfish effect in Mozi''s close book, Mojia village discovered the secret skill of living fish that can keep fish away from the pond for a long time. Now the money is rolling. Five thousand people in Mojia village can also solve the problem of food and clothing. However, at this time, the secret skill of living fish was coveted by some people. First, the city gate guard forcibly searched the fish transport vehicles, and then the fish Gang kidnapped the people of Mojia village Torture in an attempt to snatch the secret skills of live fish. Only then did Mojia village resort to force in Chang''an City in order to rescue the villagers.


    Qin Qiong''s eyes flashed a cold light and stared at the imperial historian. It was obvious that he was really angry! He didn''t expect that a small imperial historian dared to rob the founding County of the Empire.


    The central court minister also couldn''t help but suddenly, no wonder the Royal historian was so positive. It turned out that he took a fancy to the live fish secret skills of Mojia village. If the robbery failed, he even sued the imperial court.


    There are not a few courtiers present. They usually pay most attention not to their own official positions, but to their own titles, which is the guarantee that they can pass on to the next generation and keep the family rich, and the practice of the Royal historian touched the interests of everyone.


    "Wei Chen has a book to play. The fish gang in the fish market of Chang''an City ran rampant in the village, bullied the fishermen, intended to rob the secret skills of Mohist live fish, and plotted to kidnap the villagers of Mohist village. Last night, Mohist village assisted Wannian county government to capture more than 50 people of the fish gang and rescue Yu Er, the villager of Mohist village." Chang''an County Magistrate immediately mended his knife. Since Yi Guogong presented his token last night and argued with Mojia village today, it is obvious that it has a far-reaching relationship. At this time, if you don''t hurry to stand in line, when will you wait.


    "Those who hide evil and accept evil should be so bold. Your majesty, I beg you to severely punish these villains." Wei Zhengyi said in earnest. He didn''t speak for the sake of Mohist village, but simply envied evil as hatred.


    "Yes!"


    Li Shimin''s voice was calm and could not hear the waves.


    "Oh! Didn''t wang Yushi open a Wang Yushi shop? The fish Gang wanted the secret skills of live fish. You came to sue Yu today. You didn''t like the secret skills of live fish!" a sudden voice remembered that Cheng Yaojin''s big black face came up to Wang Yushi at some time.


    "This old thing!" the ministers were shocked for a while. Everyone present didn''t know that the Wangs fish shop was the property of the Taiyuan Wangs, but they were all Confucian scholars, so there was no need to stand out for the children of the Mohists.


    Cheng Yaojin didn''t seem to see Wang Yushi''s eyes. He still spit and said, "but the dead fish in your house is really not delicious. According to me, it''s best to eat fresh fish. In the past, I often caught fish in the pond. After catching fish, I killed it directly. That''s fresh. Recently, the live fish secret skill of the Mohist school is much more convenient. I don''t have to run outside the city anymore!"


    The more Cheng Yaojin said, the more wrong the court minister looked at the king''s censor. The king''s censor was anxious to cry.


    "I''m wronged!" Wang Yushi trembled with anger. He didn''t expect that a broken aristocrat would let Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin speak for them.


    "There is another reason why Wei Chen said that he played in Mojia village. It is rumored that the secret technique of live fish used in Mojia village is to improve the catfish effect and replace catfish with carp." Wang Yushi did not dare to attack Merton directly and changed to Mojia village.


    "Carp!" the courtier involuntarily looked at Li Shimin at the top.


    We all know what''s going on with carp, but it''s homonymous with Li.


    "Joke, how do you know that the secret skills of Mohist live fish are so secret?" Qin Qiong sneered.


    "I''ve heard about Wei Chen too!" said the Royal censor. Anyway, his duty is to hear about the performance. No one cares about him.


    "Oh, I also heard that Wang''s fish shop often catches and kills carp." Qin Qiong fought against the army.


    You should know that carp have strong fecundity. Every pond is almost broken. Which one doesn''t kill by mistake when fishing all year round.


    "You!" the prince never thought that the war would burn himself.


    "Although carp are expensive as national fish, they are widely spread in the north and south of the river. Although fishermen don''t kill them every time they start fishing, one will die after the pond, and what''s more, it will float all over the pond." the words of big Si Nong Su Lingnong almost made Wang Yushi cry. Are you arguing for me? Or kill me.


    "Seriously!" Li Shimin said.


    "Tell your majesty, it''s true. Since your majesty ordered to ban the folk hunting of carp, the number of carp has increased day by day, resulting in the reduction of living space for other fish, the decline of fishery production year by year, and the rising price of fish." if Merton was here, he would be greatly impressed. He didn''t expect that someone would have such foresight in the Tang Dynasty, thinking about the massive reproduction of carp, Obviously, it destroyed the fish ecosystem and caused a large number of carp flooding, so that there was a biological crisis of too many carp in a country in the future.


    Big Si Nong then said, "the massive reproduction of carp will bring inconvenience to fishermen''s fishing. Some of them will even occupy the whole pond, causing heavy losses to fishermen. They are afraid of imperial law and can only abandon the fish pond. What''s more, some fishermen killed carp by mistake in the process of fishing, but some county magistrates took it as a reason to go to jail and break their families."


    Big Si Nong''s words made the whole court quiet. Everyone, including Li Shimin, didn''t expect such a big side effect of protecting carp.


    Big Si Nong breathed a sigh of relief after he said what he held in his heart. He has been paying attention to this problem for a long time. Unfortunately, he has little talk and has no real power. He said it was useless. Today, he happened to draw people''s attention with the help of the Mojia village incident.

 Chapter 22

    "Your Majesty, is it the most important thing for the imperial people or the carp?"


    Wei Zheng deserves to be a super fierce man and directly questioned Li Shimin.


    "Of course, my people are important!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice. "Li daozong, immediately and thoroughly investigate the case of misjudgment of the people due to carp and release the innocent people!"


    "Yes!" said Li daozong, the Minister of punishment.


    "Your Majesty is holy!" the ministers replied respectfully.


    So far, it doesn''t matter whether the live fish secret technique of Mojia village uses carp. It''s already crooked.


    Wang Yushi''s heart trembled. He didn''t think of his must kill skill. He was messed up by the big Si Nong Su Lingnong, and all his previous achievements were wasted. He couldn''t help looking at another Yushi Durun next to him.


    To be fair, the current situation of Wang Yushi is not good and all his advantages are lost. He doesn''t want to go through this muddy water again. However, he owes Wang Yushi a favor and has to pay it back today.


    "Your Majesty, Shengming, from now on, the imperial fishery must be thriving. The imperial fishermen live and work in peace and contentment, but the people have a blessing in the mouth!" Du Yushi was born again and again to congratulate.


    "But if there are still some hidden worries after the prosperity of the fishery in the future, please see it clearly!"


    "Oh, what''s the hidden trouble? Come quickly!" said Li Shimin.


    "Every autumn is a good time for fishermen to harvest, but live fish are very delicate. Once they get out of the water, they will die in a short time. If Mojia village can disclose the secret skills of live fish, it will be a blessing for fishermen all over the world.


    "Joke, the secret skill of living fish is the foundation of Mohist village, which is related to the hope of thousands of Mohist villagers from generation to generation. Do you, Du Yushi, want to feed these thousands of families!" Cheng Yaojin shouted angrily,


    In this era, if any family has a unique secret script, it will not be used as a family heirloom to make the family rich from generation to generation. Even if it sacrifices its name, it will not reveal a word. It is empirical that it will pass on men but not women, pass on children but not daughter-in-law, and keep a hand.


    Even the marinated meat on the street hid their recipes. Even if they were rich, they were still like an old farmer. In the middle of the night, father and son hid in the room and secretly added ingredients. If there were no accidents, this scene would last for several generations until their store closed down.


    "How can this unique skill of benefiting the country and the people be hidden for small self-interest? Moreover, if the Mojia village gives the secret skill of living fish, the Empire will not treat him badly." Du Yushi, with a face of serving the country and the people, tries to oppress the Mojia village with the great righteousness of the country.


    I have to say that his move is indeed effective. All the officials present are Confucianists. They don''t do much of this kind of thing. I don''t think there''s anything wrong. Even Da Si Nong can''t help but be moved. If the secret recipe of live fish in Mojia village is published, there will be countless living people in the whole Tang Dynasty!


    Wang Yushi couldn''t help smiling on his face. This was the result of his discussion with Du Yushi. He was a villain first and Du Yushi was a gentleman. As long as the secret recipe of live fish was made public in Mojia village, Wang Yushi shop could soon beat the fresh fish shop in Mojia village with its huge market share. Although it didn''t have great interests of exclusive control, it could still ensure the leading position of Wang Yushi shop and don''t worry about ink The threat of Jiacun.


    "Joke, the Mojia village is not here, but you want to rob other people''s family secrets. What''s the difference between my court and the fish gang who kidnapped the people of the Mojia village and tried to steal the secret skills of live fish." Li daozong snorted coldly and said.


    He is in charge of the Ministry of punishment. From a legal point of view, the live fish secret skill is the private property of Mojia village. No matter what reason to rob the live fish secret skill of Mojia village, it is robbery.


    As soon as Li daozong said this, the whole court immediately looked Hao Ran.


    "But the secret skill of living fish is related to countless fishermen in the Empire!" the Royal historian was unwilling and went to battle himself.


    Li Shimin was also in a dilemma. One was countless fishermen in the Empire, and the other was thousands of families in Mojia village. Li Shimin was also involved in the struggle for interests and morality.


    "Tell your majesty that there is a book in burmerton, Kaiguo County!" Qin Qiong broke the deadlock.


    "Merton!"


    The whole courtier remembered the name in his heart, and the king''s censor trembled in his heart. Should Merton also sue him.


    "Deliver it quickly!" Li Shimin felt a move in his heart. He also wanted to see what the Mohist son who attracted the chaotang wanted to say.


    "Yes!" said pound, taking over an exhibition Memorial.


    "I brought five thousand villagers of Mojia village to your majesty. Mojia village has been built for 20 years. There are many people and little land. It is so barren that it can''t make ends meet every year. The villagers often starve,...." Merton''s memorial is a long complaint.


    "Every year, I only see my daughter getting married, but I don''t see the villagers getting married. There are 863 single men in Mojia village."


    "Pooh!" Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help laughing.


    Other officials blushed with forbearance, and Li Shimin twitched at the corners of his mouth. Even pound was embarrassed.


    "But the Mojia village worked together to tide over the difficulties. Since the village road was built, the Mojia village has never frozen to death or starved to death." pound couldn''t help but respect. He knew how difficult it was for his family to starve to death and couldn''t live.


    "Mojia village is good!" Cheng Yaojin praised.


    Qin Qiong nodded.


    All officials nodded.


    Li Shimin also nodded slightly.


    It is commendable that such a poor Mojia village should be able to do this step.


    "However, in order not to increase the burden on the Empire and discredit the government, the Mohist village finally experimented repeatedly in the close book of the Mohist giants, persevered and successfully invented the living fish secret skill of the Mohist." pound read and immediately unfolded the magnificent picture of the Mohist village striving to survive in order to save itself.


    "I beg your pardon. These skills that benefit the country and the people should have been presented to your majesty at the first time. However, due to your selfishness, the lives of the five thousand villagers in Mojia village can not be continued. As a last resort, Wei Chen left the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village to earn a share of food for the villagers in Mojia village. Please show your mercy. When Mojia village passes this year''s crisis, he will announce the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village at the first time."


    Wang Yushi suddenly looked happy. He didn''t expect that Mojia village took the initiative to disclose the secret recipe of live fish in Mojia village. He wasted his previous hard work and got a favor from Du Yushi.


    Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn''t have to be embarrassed.


    "Great, now the fishermen have another way to live!" the big Si Nong was happy.


    "Big Si Nong, there''s another surprise!" pound took out a piece of paper from the compromise and handed it to Li Shimin. "This is the artificial fish culture method offered by the Mohist village. Please watch it."


    Li Shimin took it and was soon attracted by the content on the paper. For a long time, he said, "it''s a wonderful method!"


    Big Si Nong was impatient. After reading it, Li Shimin immediately came forward to take it over and looked impatiently.

 Chapter 23

    "Wonderful, what a genius!" the big Si Nong''s eyes are so fierce that he can see the method of artificial fish culture and the secret skills of live fish at a glance. It''s a perfect combination of two swords.


    "With this good law, from now on, the imperial fishing industry will inevitably double, and the price of fish and meat will drop by 50%, benefiting countless imperial people."


    Su Lingnong, a big farmer, danced happily. This was his most successful day as a big farmer. I thought he was satisfied with solving the harm of carp. I didn''t expect a double surprise today.


    As long as he presides over the promotion of the method of artificial fish culture and the secret skills of Mohist live fish in the future, he must be famous in history. Mohist village is really my lucky star! Big Si Nong was beaming with joy.


    "You care about the world and don''t want to repay. It''s a great blessing for your majesty to have this people in the Empire." eldest sun Wuji congratulated. He was an old fox. He didn''t say a word when arguing before. Now everyone is happy and hurry out to pick up the fruits of victory.


    "Well! There''s still a request!" pound wiped a cold sweat after his eyes looked back.


    "Er, ER!" the eldest sun Wuji was stunned.


    Li Shimin was stunned.


    All officials were stunned!


    "Children are fooling around! Don''t take it seriously!" Qin Qiong smiled and made a round of the scene.


    "Let''s listen and see what Mojia village requires!" Li Shimin said with interest.


    Pound went on to read: "However, what to do in the next year''s Mojia village? Under my careful investigation, the root of Mojia village lies not only in the barren land and drought and flood disasters, but also in the fact that most of the Mojia village are Mojia children and are not suitable for farming. The secret skill of living fish makes me see the way to live in Mojia village. Please allow your majesty to set up a workshop in Mojia village to work and do business. I promise that I will actively explore and strive for development in the future Ming Dynasty''s method similar to the secret skills of live fish contributed to the Tang Dynasty. All the villagers of Mojia village congratulated the emperor on his long live. "


    After pound finished reading, he closed the memorial and put it on the Dragon chair in front of Li Shimin.


    The whole courtier was silent. For a long time, Li Shimin broke the silence and said, "what do you think of this memorial!"


    "In addition to the last sentence, the rest are half written and half white, and there is no literary talent!" Wei Zheng sneered. He seemed to belittle the Mohist village. In fact, he mentioned the most important sentence, poverty makes you want to change.


    "Weichen agrees!" big Si Nong took the lead in expressing support, because Mojia village has given him a great surprise, and even he has a little selfishness. If Mojia village has a method similar to the secret skills of live fish, even if it is possible, he is unwilling to give up.


    "Wei Chen objected! The national policy of this dynasty is to emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce. Mojia village is a farmer. How can it do business? That''s contrary to the national policy." Du Yushi retorted.


    "Wei Chen agrees!" surprisingly, Wang Yushi argued with Mojia village, which caused Du Yushi to glare. He just helped him, and he sang against him in the twinkling of an eye.


    Wang Yushi shrugged helplessly. He didn''t want to support Mojia village, but if he didn''t agree to do something else, Mojia village could not resolve the survival crisis. Isn''t it that the secret recipe of live fish can''t be made public.


    "Wei Chen objected!"


    "Weichen agrees!"


    The whole court is divided into two factions. Unexpectedly, most officials in the South agree, while most officials in the North oppose. Obviously, the secret skills of live fish and the method of artificial rearing benefit the south a lot.


    "Zhun! Zhun Mojia village has set up a workshop to work and do business, and is not a cheap nationality," Li Shimin said.


    If Merton was here, he would be happy. You know, he was a lowly citizen when doing business in the Tang Dynasty. He couldn''t do scientific research, wear silk and satin, or even be bullied. Merton has thousands of ways to make the Mohist village rich, but he chose a time-consuming and laborious way to sell live fish. After all, selling live fish is similar to selling grain, which is also an agricultural production. Now Li Shimin agrees Xu Mojia village is inferior to cheap nationality, which opens another broad world for Mojia village.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the ministers replied.


    "But burmerton of Kaiguo County, young and unskilled, was ordered to enter the Imperial College immediately after one year. If he is dissatisfied with it for three years, he shall not drop out." Li Shimin gave an unexpected order.


    "Ah!" the ministers were stunned.


    "Your majesty!" a gray haired old man ran out of the courtiers. This man was Kong Yingda, the Imperial College''s wine offering.


    "Why not?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Guozijian is the holy land of Confucianism, and Merton is the son of Mohism. How can you enter?" Kong Yingda objected.


    "Hey! Confucius offered a toast. It''s a family view. Confucius studied in front of the sage Lao Tzu, which was not called a good talk. Today, the children of the Mohist school study in your Confucian land, why can''t it!" Li Chunfeng, the imperial supervisor, smiled and stabbed Kong Yingda.


    Although Confucianism and Taoism have coexisted peacefully for many years, they are usually a lot dirty. Usually, the strength of Confucianism is much higher than that of Mohism. However, since Li Tang succeeded to the throne, he has respected Lao Tzu and Li Er as his ancestors. Taoism has a much better life, and he also began to think of fighting back against Confucianism.


    "You!" Kong Yingda was very angry.


    "That''s right! Kong Jijiu''s Imperial Academy is a place for the Empire to train talents. All the children of the Marquis of the Empire study in it. Merton is only 15 years old, and he is the founder of the Empire, which just meets the admission conditions." eldest sun Wuji said with a smile.


    "This!" Kong Yingda suddenly found that she was helpless.


    Qin Qiong is also secretly anxious. Merton enters the Confucian holy land alone. She doesn''t know how difficult she will be. She is about to come forward to dissuade her majesty from taking back her order, but she is held by Li Shimin Cheng Yaojin.


    "Hmm!" Qin Qiong looked at Cheng Yaojin suspiciously. She didn''t know why her old friend held him.


    "Don''t worry, Merton is a cunning catfish. He won''t necessarily suffer a loss when he enters the Imperial College. Maybe it will be another good play." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile. From Merton''s rescue of the second fish to the current battle between the court and the court, he saw clearly that Merton is not a fuel-saving lamp.


    "Little catfish!" Qin Qiong was stunned. She suddenly took a breath and looked at Li Shimin in the front. He didn''t expect Li Shimin to take Merton to experiment with the catfish effect.


    The ministers see light suddenly, yes, a Mohist''s son enters the holy land of Confucianism, that is not just a catfish''s territory to the sardine, which is similar to the catfish effect.


    As the originator of the catfish effect, Merton was experimented with by Li Shimin as a catfish, which is simply a turn of Feng Shui.


    Kong Yingda also took a breath, the more he understood Li Shimin''s intentions, the more he was afraid of Li Shimin. But Kong Yingda couldn''t help raising a bit of disapproval. With what a little Mohist child became a fierce catfish, and their three thousand Confucian disciples became a coward sardine.

 Chapter 24

    "The Mohist village''s contribution to artificial fish farming is meritorious. It''s better to charter the Mohist village to work and do business than to be a humble nationality. However, the Mohist son Merton is stubborn, greedy for pleasure and poor in his studies. He specially ordered the Mohist son to enter the Imperial College immediately after the Lantern Festival. There must be no mistake! Bestowed!" pound smiled and put away the Edict and looked at the kneeling Merton ahead.


    "Micro minister leads the order!" Merton smiled bitterly and had to accept the order respectfully. He knew that his purpose had been noticed by Li Shimin. Since Li Shimin agreed to his request, he had no reason to refuse to be the emperor''s experiment.


    "Xian Bo is very lucky. Your majesty has appointed you to the Imperial College. That''s your Majesty''s precious grace. I hope you won''t live up to your Majesty''s expectations."


    Pound smiled and looked kind, but Merton sounded like a threat. What''s your Majesty''s expectation? Is it to make him a great scholar? I''m afraid he wants to see how he tosses in the Imperial College!


    "Please tell your father-in-law that your majesty can rest assured that Weichen will do his best to satisfy your majesty!" Merton said with a bitter smile.


    "Well, your majesty will be very pleased to have this awareness," pound said with satisfaction.


    Pound left with satisfaction and took away some of the most nourishing turtle caught in Mojia village to honor the emperor for Mojia village.


    When Merton returned to the fresh fish shop, his intestines were blue with regret. He really wanted to slap himself. Why do you say catfish effect? If the frog was boiled in warm water, could the emperor still cook him.


    "Great, it''s a double happiness!" Fubo burst into tears excitedly. His two greatest wishes in his life are to make the young master become a talent and the other is to make the Mojia village prosperous and prosperous. Now they have all come true at once.


    Merton rolled his eyes silently and entered the Imperial College. Isn''t it that the sheep must take off a layer of skin when they enter the wolf''s mouth? What''s gratifying.


    "Young master, I don''t know. The Imperial College is the place where I train officials in the Tang Dynasty. Once I graduate, I will be granted an official," Li Yi explained.


    "Hmm!" the others nodded again and again.


    In their opinion, the young master is so powerful. After becoming an official, the life of Mojia village will be better. In their opinion, letting Mojia village do business is no better than letting the young master enter the Imperial College.


    "Well, now that your majesty has made an order, this matter has become a foregone conclusion. No one can change it. With your Majesty''s relationship, it is expected that the Confucian scholars in the Imperial College dare not go too far." Merton comforted himself in his heart.


    "Well, now that the crisis in Mojia village has passed, the next more important thing is to earn enough money and food for Mojia village before the Spring Festival." Merton looked hard. Now it''s time for Wang''s fish shop to pay back.


    With Merton''s order, all five thousand people in Mojia village were mobilized, women were ready for logistics, and men were all used to build waterwheel, fishing and transportation. The whole Mojia village operated like a precision instrument.


    Three days later, all the fish ponds in Mojia village were sold out.


    Then, Mojia village entered the village within ten miles on both sides of the official road of Chang''an City, and the fish ponds of the village were all reserved by Mojia village. This range gradually expanded to the whole Chang''an over time, and an endless stream of fish transport vehicles in Mojia village can be seen all over the official road.


    Outside the South City, Chi Zhiyong has already been sent to the border. No one dares to embarrass the people in Mojia village. However, the transfer fish pond in Mojia village is still used, not for confidentiality, but for convenience. The transfer fish pond has been expanded again and again, which still can not meet the demand for live fish in Chang''an city.


    Merton looked at the floating fish heads in the transfer pond outside the city gate and the long fish selling vehicles outside the pond. He nodded with satisfaction. Mojia village has successfully jumped from a small fish seller to the largest fish merchant in Chang''an city.


    "From today on, the wholesale price of live fish will drop by 30%, and let the fishmongers reduce the price of fish!" Merton said.


    "But young master, tomorrow is the new year. Many people here are ready to buy new year''s products. Now is a good time to sell fish. Is it a big loss to reduce the price at this time?" Li Xin was surprised.


    "In the long run, our Mojia village has made enough money. It''s time to give in! And get back some interest from the Wangjia fish shop," Merton said.


    Although Li Xin didn''t understand, he still passed on the young master''s order.


    "Oh!" all the fishmongers could not help cheering. It seemed that everyone had reduced the price by 30%, but the 30% was lost by Mojia village. The profits of fishmongers remained the same. Even if the price was reduced, they could sell more and earn more money.


    All this seems to be happy. Fish vendors sell more fish, and the people of Chang''an City get tangible benefits, except for one who is not popular.


    "The price of Mohist live fish is greatly reduced. Come and buy fish!"


    "Mohist live fish is the most nourishing!"


    "More than every year, more than every year, brother, it''s almost the new year. It''s also affordable to prepare a new year''s product and buy a fish for good luck!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Wang''s fish shop, shopkeeper Wang hurried to his door. The fish shop opposite is booming, and the anger in my heart rises.


    "Touch!" shopkeeper Wang angrily smashed the purple clay pot in his hand and said gnashing his teeth.


    "The MOH family is too much!"


    Zhang also said with a bitter smile: "boss, since the fish Gang incident, Mojia village has repeatedly targeted Wangjia fish shop, and the branch of fresh fish shop has directly opened opposite Wangjia fish, and let those small fish vendors enter live fish. Our business is getting worse and worse. This time, the big price reduction in Mojia village has directly pulled the price of live fish to the price of dead fish. The 10000 Jin fish we just entered has been smashed."


    In order to welcome the opportunity of the Chinese new year, shopkeeper Wang bought a large number of fish with extra money in order to grab orders from Mojia village. Even many of the subsequent ones have paid a deposit in advance. Now Merton''s move has hurt the Wangs fish shop.


    "Deceiving people too much, Chi Zhiyong has been sent to the border, and the fish gang has been put in prison. What else does he want?" shopkeeper Wang said angrily, but he missed himself. He didn''t think about it. If it weren''t for him, how could there be so many things.


    "Prepare the car quickly! Find the master quickly!" shopkeeper Wang ordered. The Wangs fish shop looks like his property, but it''s actually the property of the Royal historian. He''s just a servant of the Royal historian. Now the Wangs fish shop is in so much deficit that it can''t hide from the owner.


    The carriage drove out from the back door of Wang''s fish shop and was driven by Zhang''s accounting room. Shopkeeper Wang thought about how to tell the owner about Mojia village, but he didn''t find a carriage coming quickly in front. The two carriages would soon knock down one by one.


    "Hoo!" Zhang quickly pulled the reins to avoid the carriage. The carriage stumbled. Zhang only felt that the carriage suddenly soared into the air, and the whole carriage, including the horse and people, suddenly hit the nearby shop. Unfortunately, a beam above the shop suddenly hit the carriage. Suddenly, there was a sad cry for help from shopkeeper Wang and Zhang.


    The opposite carriage quietly took off the cloak covering his face, exposed the fish master''s mottled face, and then drove away quietly. Everything looked like an accident.

 Chapter 25

    "It must be the Mohist village. Otherwise, the beam will fall down, sir!"


    The next day, when shopkeeper Wang and accounting room Zhang wrapped their heads and cried in the Royal Palace, accounting room Zhang drove the carriage and jumped. It was better. Shopkeeper Wang was miserable. He was not only hurt all over, but also broke his arm. Fortunately, there was no big problem.


    "Well, what evidence do you have? Do you have passers-by''s testimony and catch the people in Mojia village?" Wang Yushi said angrily.


    He offended Qin Qiong and was displeased by Li Shimin for suing the emperor of Mojia village. He was remorseful. Now such a thing has happened again. It''s really inconvenient. Moreover, the boy of Mojia village is being used as a catfish by the emperor for experiments, and he can''t move him at all.


    "Well, fortunately, it''s not in vain this time. After the Mojia village discloses the secret skills of live fish, it''s all worth it!" Wang Yushi comforted erhan.


    Shopkeeper Wang and Zhang looked at each other and said weakly, "Sir, we may not be able to make it to the day when Mojia village announces the secret recipe for live fish."


    Wang Yushi frowned and said, "what''s the matter? My Wang family fish shop is the largest fish shop in Chang''an city. Who can shake our foundation."


    "That was before. Now all the fish traders in Chang''an City, large and small, have entered the Mohist live fish from the south gate. We have lost 50% of the fish market in Chang''an city. Now the Mohist village has greatly reduced the price. It is estimated that the Wangs fish shop can''t last this year." shopkeeper Wang said hard.


    "What?" the Royal censor said angrily. The struggle of several generations in his huge King''s fish shop was reduced to the hands of a child in a short time.


    "Mohists deceive people too much!"


    There was a roar of grief and anger from the Royal historian''s house.


    The Yushi mansion was sad, while the Mojia village was jubilant.


    Mohist village is fully paved, and the whole Chang''an market is occupied by Mohist live fish. The situation is very good.


    At the head of Mojia village, Merton and Li Yi, several Mojia villagers, were walking on the flat road and chatting comfortably.


    "Unfortunately, this kind of business can''t last long. It''s estimated that after a year, the secret skills of live fish will be announced. At that time, there will be no such advantage." the fish Master said with regret.


    Li Yi also sighed. This kind of business can only be bought and sold with a hammer. Fortunately, his majesty also made compensation. Mojia village also survived the crisis and had nothing to lose.


    "Well, today is a big event, so don''t talk about work!" Merton waved his hand and said.


    "Hee hee, haole!" a group of young men in Mojia village laughed and roared, and several of them couldn''t help blushing.


    It turned out that Mojia village finally got rid of poverty, and the following happy events also came to the door, especially the young men in the fish transportation team in Mojia village, with high salary and heavy status, were favored by the matchmaker.


    It wasn''t long before. Twenty young men made an appointment at once. The urgent elders of Mojia village decided to hold a collective wedding years ago, breaking the nightmare of not getting married in Mojia village for three years. It is one of the biggest happy events in Mojia village.


    The time was set on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. Merton waved again and set aside 25 of the newly-built houses in the Mojia village as their new houses. As for the villagers whose houses collapsed in the Mojia village, they had no opinion at all, because the Mojia village was so eager to solve the singles problem that everything else could be postponed, Anyway, they live in the Mo mansion now, which is much better than before.


    One armed Uncle Wang even said that he would give up the new house and look at the gate in Mo mansion.


    It is the collective spirit of Mojia village that makes the great cause of matchmaking in Mojia village very smooth. It is not the Spring Festival yet. Another 50 Mojia village boys have made a marriage. As soon as Merton gritted his teeth, he immediately promised that every new couple would have it, but the new house will wait until the Spring Festival next year. Rao is so. Matchmakers who come to Mojia village to talk about matchmaking are still in an endless stream, and some even make a lot of dowry.


    Merton, Li Yi and others are waiting for the wedding team at the entrance of the village. Behind Merton, the young man in the red bridegroom''s clothes is the young man in Mojia village, among which Li Xin is the most outstanding. Li Xin is handsome in his bridegroom''s clothes.


    Speaking of Li Xin''s marriage, it is also quite legendary. The head of Guojia village, a neighboring village, tried every means to get the live fish secret skills of Mojia village. Therefore, he did not hesitate to sacrifice the beauty trick to let his little daughter approach Li Xin. He didn''t expect to be seen through by Li Xin. Instead, he was in full swing with Guo Xiaomei and let Guo village head lose his daughter and fold in a dowry.


    "Coming!" Tie''an stretched her head, saw the sedan chair in front and joked, "if I say, the one in Guojia village must be the one in front, because she is also the most anxious recently."


    "Hahaha!" everyone laughed and made Li Xin blush.


    Li Yi doesn''t mind laughing. On the day of her wedding, a few jokes also add to the festivity.


    Soon, the reception team came to the entrance of Mojia village,


    "The bride is coming!" a cheer startled the whole Mojia village, and soon the Mojia village was boiling.


    Countless villagers came to watch. The grand occasion of twenty sedans entering the Mohist village shocked everyone. This is a grand occasion that has not been seen in many years, not to mention Zhuangzi, nor any other Zhuangzi.


    The bride gets off the sedan chair, changes shoes and washes her hands. A whole set of etiquette comes down, and the ceremony officially begins.


    Enough space in the village is at the gate of Mo mansion. A large open space has been cleared and built on a high platform,


    Merton went to the front desk. He was unanimously recommended as the master of ceremonies, and he didn''t even have an excuse to shirk.


    "Today, Mojia village has a great wedding, which is even more important than how much money we earn and how much food we buy, because they are the hope for the future of our Mojia village." Merton said emotionally.


    The villagers around nodded silently. Mojia village has not been married for three years. If Mojia village had ceased to exist for a long time, and now married a new marriage, the inheritance of Mojia village would not be cut off.


    "Now we have twenty new members in Mojia village. Now I solemnly tell you sisters in law! You have made the right choice! The days of Mojia village will be better and happier. At that time, everyone will envy you for marrying into Mojia village."


    "Now the good time has come!" cried Merton.


    "Worship heaven and earth!"


    Twenty couples worship the sky!


    "Second, worship the high hall!"


    Twenty pairs of parents stood up at a loss.


    "Husband and wife worship each other!"


    Twenty couples knelt down to each other and made lifelong promises,


    "Serve tea!"


    "Mom and Dad, please have tea!"


    Twenty brides came forward and brought their new parents their first cup of tea.


    "Into the bridal chamber!" Merton finally shouted!


    The whole Mojia village immediately cheered, and twenty newcomers were pulled down with red faces, while others stayed to attend the banquet.


    Mojia village has been filled with nearly 100 tables of running water mats for the villagers to enjoy! Master Yu worked hard all night and finally finished the banquet. Although there were many vegetarian dishes and most meat dishes were fish, the people of Mohist village still seemed to eat mountain delicacies and sea food, because this was a life they had never imagined before.

 Chapter 26

    After the mass marriage in Mojia village, it caused a sensation in the local area. Although it has not completely changed the impression of Mojia village in their minds, at least some villages have put Mojia village in an equal position.


    Especially when Merton announced that each newly married relative was assigned a house, many families have taken the Mojia village as the first sequence of marrying their daughter.


    Oh, my God! That''s three big brick houses with green tiles! I don''t know why the young master of Mojia village is crazy. He is so generous. This is the top condition for marrying a daughter anywhere. Even in later generations, it is also one of the necessary conditions for mother-in-law to choose a son-in-law.


    Moreover, Mojia village has recently made a lot of money. A truckload of grain is transported to the village without money. The complacent Li Yi leads the matchmaker to the granary of Mojia village. After watching it, after the matchmaker''s mouth publicizes it, the villages around dozens of miles know that Mojia village has made a fortune.


    "Hello, young master!"


    When Li Yi led Merton around Mojia village, villagers came to greet him from time to time, and Merton responded one by one with a smile.


    At this time, Mojia village has changed greatly. The dangerous houses that were about to collapse have already been demolished. The road management is flat and neat, comparable to the official road. Drainage ditches are laid on both sides to lead the river outside the village to wash. It is clean and there is no cross flow of sewage before.


    "Uncle Li has worked hard!" Merton said sincerely as he watched the great change of Mojia village.


    "It''s all the efforts of everyone. The young master gave them hope that they can have the change now!" Li Yi said with satisfaction. The previous Mojia village was confused. It was hungry and full every day. There was no time to take care of the village.


    Now Mojia village is finally getting better. Even if the villagers are tired of working, they will clean their homes inside and outside.


    "Did you share all the money!" Merton asked.


    "Young master, I''ve already divided it. Each person has 100 yuan. Brother Fu personally sent it door to door." near the Spring Festival, the business of Mojia village and live fish is booming. It can be said that he made a lot of money. Merton wanted to improve Mojia village. After thinking about it, he still paid dividends.


    The new word "dividend" is not understood, but it does not hinder the enthusiasm of the villagers in Mojia village.


    The money is not much, 100 yuan per person, whether men, women, children, or newly married women. This is just like rain in time for some poor families. They add clothes to their children and farm tools to their families. In short, Mojia village can finally have a good new year,


    "Dividends!"


    Guo Xiaomei holds two hundred dollars and her big eyes are bright. This is the dividend money of her and Li Xin. She didn''t expect to get the dividend money today after she just started yesterday. It can be seen how great the Mojia village is. She took Guo Xiaomei''s heart all at once.


    "Why don''t you introduce your sister and listen to Li Xin that there are many young men in Mojia village." Guo Xiaomei secretly made a decision in her heart.


    A hundred dollars per person is not much, but more than 5000 people in Mojia village, plus one yuan, is 500 yuan. Neither Merton nor Fubo cares about the 500 yuan. The overall prosperity of Mojia village is their goal. After the money is distributed, they don''t follow Merton wholeheartedly. The five hundred passes have condensed the hearts of the villagers of Mojia village, and they must not lose.


    Merton walked, his ears moving, and he heard the noise ahead.


    "This is the fish master who will give you the pork. The newly married boys also know how to repay their kindness. They feel sorry to live in their new house first, so they each paid for a big fat pig and gave it to the villagers. Good guys, all of them are 200 Jin up." Li Yi said happily.


    Obviously, this proposal was initiated by Li Xin and strongly supported by Li Yi.


    "Brother Xin is really true!" Merton was also slightly proud. He saw that the villagers of Mojia village could take the initiative to consider others. This atmosphere is worth advocating.


    "Go and have a look!" Merton said excitedly.


    "Ah! Young master, it''s too dirty inside!" Li Yi shouted behind him, but he was soon left behind by Merton.


    Li Yi followed him with a bitter smile. At this time, he suddenly realized that the young master was still a child.


    "One, two, three!"


    When Merton came to the pig killing scene outside the village, he happened to see Li Xin carrying a big fat pig weighing more than 200 kg into a big pot. The chopping material was added under the bottom of the pot and was burning.


    More than a dozen killed fat pigs were neatly placed on the front desk, steaming with heat. The fish master was holding a machete to divide the meat for everyone.


    "Aunt Ma, your old man has bad teeth. I''ll give you some fat!" the fish master smiled and said to the old woman in front of him.


    "Brother Dong! This is yours!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Master Yu''s knife is very good. He can grasp the weight of each knife very accurately. Moreover, he also knows that there are several people in each other''s family. It doesn''t need to be weighed at all. It should be much more and less.


    Suddenly, Merton found that the little girl in purple was standing in front of the fish master with saliva. When he saw Merton, he waved with a smile.


    "Young master! You see Uncle Yu left us a big piece of fat?" Ziyi looked at the white fat in front of her and was very excited. In this era of extreme lack of oil, the price of fat meat is much higher than lean meat.


    "Er! Merton felt sick when he saw fat meat. He has always been a loyal supporter of lean meat. He really can''t get used to fat meat.


    "Don''t have so much fat, except for this streaky meat, I''ll change it into lean meat!" Merton frowned, pointing to the white streaky fat of no less than five kilograms.


    "Ah! Young master, that''s fat!" Ziyi looked at the white fat painfully and didn''t understand Merton''s practice at all.


    "That piece of streaky pork is for you." Merton said in surprise. Girl, if you don''t want to occupy fat at all in future generations, you''ll spend all day trying to lose weight.


    "All right!" Ziyi reluctantly gave up. Anyway, she has streaky meat. If the young master wants to eat at that time, just give him a piece.


    Under the command of Merton, the fish master picked the whole tenderloin of the fat pig perfectly and handed it to Ziyi with streaky pork.


    "Leave me another pig liver, large intestine, waist flowers and big bones!" Merton pointed to several other villagers. It seemed that there was no oil and water. The fish master handed them to Ziyi one by one.


    Purple clothes took it over wrongfully. The young master was so great that he gave up such good meat for the villagers and chose these miscellaneous pieces of meat.


    Only the fish master knew Merton''s taste. When he was in Chang''an City, Merton didn''t even eat the belly fat of fish. Of course, he couldn''t eat fat meat.


    "Well, don''t pout. When you''re ready to taste it, you''ll know what meat is delicious." Merton joked about purple clothes.


    After coming to Datang for such a long time, Merton can be said to have been sharing joys and sorrows with the Mojia village, eating and living together, with no exception. Now that the Mojia village has turned the corner, Merton decides to reward himself well and doesn''t want to eat coarse and hard to swallow rice.

 Chapter 27

    "Pig killing rice!"


    Merton personally cooks and rewards himself. In addition, the rice bought from Chang''an is boiled into a delicious pot. The smell alone makes people salivate.


    No, it''s not ready yet! Li Yi came together with several old people from Mojia village.


    "How fragrant!" one armed Uncle Wang sniffed with his nose all the way.


    "Well, dinner is ready!" Merton shouted, directing tie an and laver to bring the vegetables to the table.


    Seeing Merton cook in person, Li Yi was surprised, but they didn''t say anything. The Mojia village was too poor a few years ago and couldn''t eat enough. Who cares about the Confucian truth that a gentleman is far from cooking.


    Braised pork, braised pork with plum vegetables, sweet and sour tenderloin, pig killing rice, coupled with several seasonal green vegetables, there are not many dishes, which is better than a large amount. Each dish is filled with two bowls, plus a bowl of fragrant rice in front of everyone, everyone''s appetite is lifted.


    A huge round table was placed in the center of the lobby. The fish master, Fubo, Li Yi, Merton, one armed Uncle Wang, Yu Er, Li Xin, tie an, Lao Zhang tou, the only doctor in the village, Dr. Hua, and the only private school in the village, Mr. Li, took their seats one after another.


    Dr. Hua claims to be a descendant of Hua Tuo, but he was a military doctor in the magic camp before. According to Merton, it is estimated that it is to improve his status. Dr. Hua just boasts. However, Dr. Hua''s medical skills are really good. Mojia village has been sick for so many years. Basically, they find Dr. Hua to cure the disease, and almost all the villagers are operating at a loss. Even poor families are free medical treatment, mainly relying on villagers outside the pit.


    As for Mr. Li, Merton''s impression of him was terrible. It was his private school teacher when he was a child, and he was beaten in the palm of his hand. As for Mr. Li Xinyu, er tiean and others, they also saw that Mr. Li did a good job honestly and consciously.


    In addition, Merton and purple were seated, a total of 13 people.


    "Round table, thirteen knights." Merton was proud.


    Everyone here knows what it means to be invited by Merton. After that, it will be the team in Mojia village. Only Ziyi looks cute and drools at the pork with plum vegetables.


    "Dinner!" Merton said unhappily. He was the first to move his chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of braised meat to signal the people to start.


    "Yeah!" Ziyi cheered, and the chopsticks jumped on it at the first time. Yu Er Li Xin was unwilling to show weakness and immediately


    "Ha ha, young people have a good appetite, brothers! Let''s start too." Fu Bo grew up in purple clothes and kicked her around with a smile.


    Master Yu and Li Yi were also embarrassed. They glared at their son and quickly took down their chopsticks, otherwise they would be swept away by these food goods.


    When they moved their chopsticks, they couldn''t stop. Finally, even master Li, who paid attention to the image of Mojia village, joined the ranks of robbing vegetables.


    "This is mine!" doctor Hua angrily scolded Li Yi.


    "Who snatched it is who!" Li Yi said shamelessly.


    If you don''t pay attention, you are robbed by Uncle Wang with one arm. Although Uncle Wang is missing one arm, no one can compare with you in eating.


    Lao Zhang and Mr. Li were silent, and his chopsticks kept going.


    Soon the table was in a mess, and everyone was full of tea and food.


    "Young master, I''m also a chef in Chang''an City for my cooking skills." Master Yu burped.


    "Brag! With your skill, you can only cook two fish, and the others are just the same!" Master Li sniffed. He was robbed of meat by the fish master just now.


    "Yes!" other old people echoed. Soon several old people pinched one.


    Soon the table was cleaned and everyone sat down in their respective positions.


    Merton looked around for a week and said, "uncles, uncles and brothers, I''ve called you here today because I''m going to go to the Imperial College in two years. Since then, the development of Mojia village depends on everyone''s wisdom and efforts."


    "Don''t worry, young master. We old bones in Mojia village will keep it for the young master." Li Yi promised. Other old people nodded silently. It''s not easy for Mojia village today. They don''t want to let Mojia village return to poverty and backwardness. No one thought about that kind of day.


    "Don''t worry, young master. Just make arrangements. We''ll do it properly. If those cubs don''t obey, I''ll slap him in the face." Master Yu said domineering, making Yu Er want to lower his head under the table.


    "OK! Then I''ll talk about the planning of Mojia village for next year!" Merton said, and everyone was refreshed. They had full confidence in the magical young master.


    "The live fish business still needs to be done." Merton looked at the fish master and said.


    Master Yu ordered a little. The live fish business is the biggest source of wealth in Mojia village. It won''t be lost.


    "But the secret skills of live fish will be announced soon, and our business will be very difficult to do at that time!" said Yu Er worried.


    The fish master stared at the fish and said, "what''s wrong? Mojia village is now in five fish shops in Chang''an City, and has already occupied the market. Other villages have contacts. As long as we maintain the supply and bear hardships, who else are we afraid of in Mojia village?"


    "Uncle fish is right!" Merton agreed. "However, our Mojia village can not rely on other villages, but also have its own source of goods. Our ten fish ponds are obviously not enough, but there is a good place to raise fish upstream of our Mojia village!"


    "The young master is talking about shibie lake!" said the fish master with a look in his eyes.


    Merton nodded and said, "shibie lake can just experiment our artificial fish culture method, and also make the live fish market in Mojia village invincible."


    There is no one in the upper reaches of shibie lake, and the lower reaches are just adjacent to the fief of Mojia village, which theoretically belongs to the territory of Mojia village. Mojia village also paid attention to this lake before. However, the lake water is too deep and fishing is too difficult, so it gave up. Now there is a method of artificial fish culture, which is simply a natural treasure of Mojia village.


    "Yes!" said Li Yi, patting his thigh. He thought that after Merton disclosed his secret skills of live fish, the business of live fish in Mojia village would be hit. Now it seems that there is no need to worry and it will go to a higher level.


    Others are also happy! Young master really didn''t let them down. If you look for this to develop, Mojia village can''t be poor.


    "In the future, the business of transporting fish in Mojia village will be entrusted to Li Xin!" Merton looked at Li Xin and ordered.


    "Thank you, young master!" Li Xin stood up and said calmly.


    "The live fish business in Chang''an city is in the charge of the second fish!" Merton''s unexpected appointment made the second-hand fish stand up.


    "Isn''t my father responsible for this before?" Yu Er looked hopeful and was afraid that his father would be angry.


    Others looked at Merton suspiciously and didn''t understand why Merton did so.

 Chapter 28

    "Of course, uncle Yu wants to give full play to his real skills. I''m going to start a restaurant specializing in fish in Chang''an." Merton said. Yu Er was delighted and thanked him again and again.


    "Is that ok?" fish master certainly hopes that his craft can be reused, but now all restaurants in Chang''an city only take fish as a dish. There is no restaurant specializing in fish.


    "Don''t worry, this restaurant is different. I''ll put the secret skills of live fish in the restaurant and let people choose fish themselves. Kill and kill first. Then I''ll give you some fish recipes!" Merton said.


    "It''s as delicious as today''s dishes!" asked the fish master.


    Merton nodded,


    "Then I''ll have a copy of today''s menu!" said the fish master with longing.


    "The work of Mojia village will bother Uncle Zhang in the future!" after solving the problem of fish master, Merton turned his eyes to Lao Zhang.


    "You''re welcome, young master! I know Lao Zhang can do carpentry. It''s just right!" Lao Zhang said modestly. He was a great craftsman in the magic camp.


    "I will re plan a place along the river and set up a factory in Mojia village, mainly to build waterwheel and artificial fish farming equipment. Taking advantage of the disclosure of live fish secrets, Mojia village will do more. There will certainly be large orders coming at that time!"


    "Train more carpenters and keep some core parts confidential!" Merton ordered, and told Lao Zhang the assembly line production mode of later generations.


    "Young master, you''re a genius!" Lao Zhang''s mind was shocked. The production line production skills improved efficiency and kept secrets. An apprentice was only responsible for one part. Even if he left Mojia village, he couldn''t make it. As for the core things, Lao Zhang would usually do it himself.


    "Uncle Wang set up a villagers'' guard team. After Mojia village becomes rich, there will certainly be some unscrupulous people coveting it, and the villagers'' guard team will be responsible for the safety of Mojia village." Merton knows how great Uncle Wang with one arm is. He made countless contributions in those years. If he hadn''t lost one arm at last, he would certainly be called a military general now.


    "Don''t worry, young master! Our Mojia village is built on martial arts. All of us are good soldiers, and our children are not bad. Don''t worry, young master. I promise to train a group of teams that can go to the battlefield without bears." Uncle Wang said with great pride.


    "Dr. Hua, you have taken care of Mojia village for so many years. Merton is here to thank you!" Merton said sincerely.


    You know, Dr. Hua obviously has superb medical skills, but he is willing to suffer in Mojia village and silently dedicate his life to Mojia village.


    "You''re welcome, young master. Huayi was originally from Mohist village. It''s my duty to treat the villagers!" said doctor Hua lightly.


    "I''m going to implement free medical treatment in Mojia village!" Merton threw a heavy bomb.


    "What!" everyone exclaimed! This is amazing! In this era, medicinal materials are scarce and the cost of treatment is very expensive. Many old people in their families let themselves live and die after they have been ill. If not, because the final treatment is called Yang Bailao and Xi''er everywhere, including the scenes of selling to save the father in the film and television dramas of rotten street in later generations.


    Doctor Hua couldn''t get up. He muttered to himself, "this, how can this be..."


    He looked forward to the grand occasion of free medical treatment, which the young master said, and couldn''t help but gallop forward.


    Merton coughed and said, "of course, now Mojia village has just started and can''t do this, but it''s still OK for ordinary colds and injuries, and then slowly add other free diseases in the future!"


    Dr. Hua was not disappointed, but looked at Merton with admiration: "young master, this can be said to be a precedent in history, with a long-term vision, unprecedented before and after!"


    Dr. Hua''s exaggerated praise embarrassed Merton.


    Soon, Merton turned his eyes to master Li.


    "Free teaching, I know!" said master Li with a smile. With the lessons of doctor Hua, the old master thought he should be stable and not lose his demeanor.


    Merton shook his head gently, and suddenly Mr. Li showed a disappointed expression.


    "It''s compulsory education. All school-age children in Mojia village go to school free of charge!" Merton said word by word.


    "Seriously!" Master Li suddenly stood up and looked directly at Merton.


    "Ten new houses will be set aside as a new school, and Uncle Zhang will solve the problem of desks!" Merton smiled at Master Li and showed his white teeth.


    "Sir, it''s not enough!" Mr. Li hurried around yesterday.


    "If you don''t have enough students, you can hire them or teach them to older children. They mainly focus on literacy and concurrently study arithmetic. The teaching content is Mozi and concurrently study other 100 classic passages." Merton listed several requirements.


    "At night, the school opens night schools in which adults can study. Those who know more than 1000 words have priority in work and 30% more salary!"


    "Don''t worry, young master. If the night school starts, I will be the first to send Li Xin." Li Yi is the first to support it.


    Suddenly, Li Xin''s head also fell under the table, and Yu Er smiled happily.


    "Yuer will go too!" the fish Master said, driving Yuer from heaven to hell.


    A pair of brothers and sisters suddenly felt that the world was full of malice towards them and couldn''t help laughing bitterly at each other.


    Master Li became more and more excited, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he stared at Merton: "it''s a real genius. You''re the most successful student I Li duo taught. For this compulsory education, I Li duo was pointed out by thousands of people."


    "Lidor!" Merton nodded with a movement of mind.


    "Tie''an and Ziyi go to Chang''an city with me."


    "Yes, young master!" the two people, who had been impatient for a long time, said happily, especially Ziyi. They had long wanted to go to Chang''an city. Now their wishes have been fulfilled, and they can''t help laughing.


    As for tie an, he has long been reported as a part by Merton. It is his duty to protect Merton. In his impression, he can eat as long as he follows the young master.


    Everyone present has a specific task, leaving Fubo and Li Yi.


    "Fu Bo, as the general manager of Mohist mansion, manages all the finance of Mohist village."


    "Yes, young master!" Fubo has always been the chief manager of the Mohist house. It can be said that Fubo has made great contributions to the maintenance of the Mohist village.


    "All departments report to Fubo every month and accept Fubo''s audit at any time. I don''t want Mojia village to become rich. Because a little things have estranged me, I want to make Mojia village both suffer and be rich." Merton beat the people. After all, after Mojia village has become rich, people''s hearts may change. It''s better to give a preventive injection in advance, or turn over in the future.


    "Don''t worry, young master!" they promised again and again.


    "Hmm!" Merton nodded.


    "In addition, Li Yi served as the head of Mojia village. During my absence, Uncle Li presided over the daily affairs of Mojia village."


    "Don''t worry, young master. There must be no worries in Mojia village." Li Yigao said.


    Merton looked around and got up slowly, and the others got up one after another.


    "This meeting, as a common practice in Mojia village, will be held once a year to discuss major events in Mojia village. During my absence, everyone present will raise their hands to vote, and the minority will obey the majority. If you have any doubts, you can report to me!" Merton retained the veto power. It is not that he does not trust the people, but that Mojia village needs his guidance.


    "Yes, young master!" the crowd answered.

 Chapter 29

    Chang''an City, Mo mansion.


    "We''re back again!" fuber looked at the Earl''s house in front of him and sighed. No, it has now become the Marquis''s house.


    This residence was granted by his majesty when muriath was granted Marquis at that time. Not surprisingly, this residence is definitely the worst of its kind, and the location is not good. It is far from the imperial city and almost adjacent to the civilian area. The only advantage is its large area!


    Merton looked at such a big mansion excitedly and shouted in his heart, "I''m rich!"


    If such a big house is placed in the capital of future generations, no amount of money will be changed!


    Although the position is not good, at least the noble''s tail is hung, and the two stone lions at the door are still majestic.


    "Squeak!" the red paint door opened heavily, and a thin boy appeared at the door.


    "Mo Wu!" Merton shouted.


    "Young master!" the young man was so excited that he ran to Merton like a monkey and said with tears: "young master, you have finally come to Merton''s house!"


    Previously, Merton came to Chang''an and lived in the fresh fish shop. It''s too far from the fish market. It''s really inconvenient. Moreover, Merton''s soul from later generations doesn''t have much nostalgia for this place, so he hasn''t been here.


    Merton looked at Mo Wu in front of him with a pleased face. Mo Da was an orphan in the army adopted by Mo lie. It looked like a servant, but it was better than a brother.


    "Mo Da, where are Mo two?" Merton asked.


    From Mo Da to Mo Wu, there are five brothers, all adopted by Mo lie. When Mo lie died, the people of Mo family returned to Mo family village and left Mo DA and other five people to guard the Mo family. Mo Wu was the youngest, so he took special care and left the guard.


    "They all went to brother Yu to help. I''ll just watch the door alone!" Mo Wu said foolishly. Now everyone in Mojia village is unwilling to fall behind and compete for work. Naturally, Mo DA and others are not included. In ordinary times, they go to the fresh fish shop to help.


    "Well, Mo Wu, take us in quickly!" Purple shouted.


    "OK! Sister Ziyi!" Mo Wu answered repeatedly. The purple clothes were ancient and strange. Mo Wu had the best relationship with her.


    When I walked into the Mohist house, I found that the Mohist house had been cleaned up. Obviously, more than five people took care of the Mohist village in good order. But some houses are dilapidated, some can no longer live, and it seems a little depressed.


    "The space is wide!" Merton sighed as he looked at the empty courtyard of Mo mansion along the bluestone path.


    "After the young master gets married, it won''t be empty at all." fuber said happily looking at Merton, which made Merton feel cold.


    Merton chose the master bedroom, and the others chose their own rooms. They were officially settled down. They had a home in Chang''an city. Although the home was poor, it was better than warmth.


    "It''s time to pay a visit to Yi Guogong! I haven''t thanked him for the last time. When I came, doctor Hua just disclosed a pair of medicine to Yi Guogong, which was just delivered." fuber said to Merton.


    Merton nodded, not to mention the founder of Merton county. If it weren''t for Qin Qiong, Merton wouldn''t even have a chance to win the memorial, let alone temporarily keep the secret skill of living fish, get the right to do business in Mojia village, let alone accidentally get the position of Guozi supervisor, although he was forced.


    Five big soft shelled turtle, five grass carp, five bighead carp and five carp are all loaded in the waterwheel. Each of them is a first-class top fish.


    "Ah Fu is coming!" Mrs. Qin greeted Fu Bo like a spring breeze. It turned out that when Mo lie was alive, she was very close to Qin Qiong. Mrs. Qin also knew Fu Bo.


    "Hello, madam!" said faubert respectfully!


    "You are still so rigid! What else do you bring when you come!" Mrs. Qin said with a reproachful face.


    "They are all local specialties and worthless." Fu Bo smiled and handed the herbs to Mrs. Qin.


    "Oh! The medicine of Chinese miracle doctor has arrived. It''s great. My husband has just run out of medicine." Mrs. Qin took the medicine in surprise.


    "Merton was surprised. He didn''t expect that Dr. Hua should be valued by Mrs. Qin. It seems that there are many secrets in Mojia village that he doesn''t know.


    "This is the little catfish in your Majesty''s mouth!" Mrs. Qin put down the medicine in her hand and looked at Merton with a smile.


    "Meet Mrs. Merton in Mojia village!"


    Merton smiled bitterly. Since the emperor let Merton enter the Imperial College, Merton had a new nickname in Chang''an City, little catfish.


    "The child is still out of sight and wants to call her aunt!" Mrs. Qin said falsely.


    "Yes, aunt!" cried Merton.


    "He''s also a good boy, but he''s much more delicate than your father." Mrs. Qin joked Merton with a smile.


    "You don''t have to worry. Many people don''t want to be your Majesty''s catfish. Don''t worry about anything. Come to your aunt, who will support you." Mrs. Qin said with deep meaning.


    Merton''s heart was shocked and suddenly realized that yes! How many people tried every means to send their poems and articles to the emperor in order to get the emperor''s pity. From another point of view, they didn''t do anything and got the emperor''s attention. What''s their complaint!


    "Thank you for your advice!" Merton said heartily.


    "What a clever child. If Huaiyu had half of you, I wouldn''t have to worry so much." Mrs. Qin said, and a murderous spirit flew through the corner of her eyes.


    "Qin Huaiyu!" Mrs. Qin''s voice just dropped.


    A young man in royal clothes with a warm jade belt and a wronged face came over.


    "Mom, I''m just going out for a stroll!" Qin Huaiyu explained.


    "School will begin tomorrow. If your grades are inferior this time, be careful of your dog legs!" Mrs. Qin is worthy of being a general, and educating children is also murderous.


    "Mother, don''t worry." Qin Huaiyu''s face turned white and promised again and again.


    Mrs. Qin stared at him, pointed to Merton and said, "this is the child of your uncle''s family. I will enter the Imperial College with you this year and take good care of each other in the future.


    Qin Huaiyu took a look at Merton''s small body, patted his chest and promised: "don''t worry, Shidi. The Imperial College doesn''t dare to give me face. Qin Huaiyu hasn''t seen much. If anything happens in the future, just ask my brother!"


    "Thank you, brother," said Merton.


    "We are friends of the world and take care of each other. That''s......" Qin Huaiyu suddenly realized something and jumped up, pointing to Merton with a surprised face.


    "You are Merton, the Mexican family..."


    Merton touched his nose and said awkwardly, "if there is no other man named Merton, the Mexican family in my brother''s mouth is under me."


    "Er, ER!" Qin Huaiyu was speechless. He didn''t expect that the Mo family, who caused a sensation in the Imperial College, was in his home. Moreover, it seems that he is really ready to go to the Imperial College. You don''t know that you have caused a sensation before you enter the Imperial College. The whole Imperial College yelled at each other to make the Mo family look good? "


    "What''s the matter?" Mrs. Qin snapped.


    Qin Huaiyu has a great disturbance in saying things. It was originally that after the spread of Mozi''s coming to the Imperial College, he immediately caused a great disturbance in the Imperial College. His majesty took the fish effect of sardine as a catfish.


    Such a conclusion excited the arrogant Guozi supervisor students and connected them one after another. They wanted to get the mojiazi down on the opening day of school.


    "Anyway, that''s what happened. I didn''t take part in it!" Qin Huaiyu hurriedly left himself clean. In fact, he was the happiest.


    "What can I do?" Mrs. Qin said anxiously. There was a strong background behind those national children''s prison students. It was not good that Merton was going to make enemies with these people as soon as he went.


    "Don''t worry, aunt. It''s just soldiers coming to block the water and cover the earth.

 Chapter 30

    "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. The Mohist son has a great tone!"


    At the gate of the Imperial College, a large group of Imperial College Students surrounded Qin Huaiyu.


    "Yes, this is what Mozi said, and I heard it with my own ears." Qin Huaiyu provoked below.


    "The Mohist family even deceives people too much. If the Mohist family obediently admit defeat, we can let him go. Now he''s waiting for us to be humiliated a hundred times!" the leading Confucian student said gnashing his teeth.


    "Wang Ling! Don''t think you''ll win. In my opinion, the Mohist school is not a good match!" Qin Huaiyu added another fire.


    "So what! This time I invited the top experts of the sixth academy to come and make sure that the reputation of the Mohist school would be ruined. I couldn''t lift my head in the Imperial College for three years." Wang Ling said proudly.


    "Brother Fang, how dare you gamble! Today, my younger brother invested 500 Liang to build the villa. If you win, you will lose 12%," Qin Huaiyu revealed his real purpose! One pays 12%, that is to say, if the national son supervisor presses one hundred and twenty Liang, he can win one hundred and twenty Liang.


    "What about Mohists?" Wang Ling asked.


    "Mohist won one and lost ten." Qin Huaiyu said.


    "Hiss!" the people around took a breath. Wouldn''t it be that Mozi won, it would have to be doubled ten times.


    "Hum! What if it''s a hundred times, but it doesn''t give us money!" Wang Ling snorted.


    "I''ll bet ten Liang on the loss of Mohism and make some more money." Wang Ling took out a silver ingot and put it in front of Qin Huaiyu.


    "Good luck!" Qin Huaiyu quickly put away the silver and wrote down Wang Ling''s name and money on a roster.


    "Come on, come on! Don''t miss it when you pass by. Guozi Jiansheng vowed to make the Mohist unable to lift his head. The Mohist called for troops to block the water and cover the earth. The Mohist family lost 10 and the Guozi Jiansheng lost 12." Qin Huaiyu shouted loudly.


    "The Mo family is so arrogant that I can''t see it anymore. I''ll press five Liang!"


    "I''ll press three or two!"


    "I''ll press twenty Liang!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Guozi Jiansheng was excited and invested heavily one by one. Without exception, he would lose the Mohist school.


    "All right!"


    Qin Huaiyu happily put away his money and signed the pledge one by one.


    After this group of Guozi prison students left, soon another group of Guozi prison students got the news and poured out.


    "I''ll press twenty Liang!"


    "I''ll press fifty Liang!"


    "I press thirty Liang!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    This group obviously had some money. Qin Huaiyu also began to collect money happily. Later, he collected more and more money, and his cold sweat also flowed, because these people lost by pressing Merton, and none of them won by pressing Merton. Although the amount has not been counted, it is estimated that there are almost 45000 Liang in the underground money bag.


    "Huaiyu, it''s bad. They invited Kong huisuo''s gang. What should we do now? What if we lose so much money!" a black faced boy ran in panic and asked in a trembling voice.


    "Wei Chi Baolin, you timid fellow, what did we say at the beginning? It''s a big deal to tighten your belt for two months!" Qin Huaiyu shouted angrily.


    Chumo is also silent. The three of them have come up with five hundred Liang, many of which are borrowed. If they all take it in, it is estimated that they will have a hard life for several months.


    "Mohists are sure!" Chumo asked in a deep voice.


    Qin Huaiyu thought carefully about the scene of seeing Merton yesterday. After a long time, Qin Huaiyu definitely nodded.


    "I Qin Huaiyu didn''t dare to say anything else, but I was still very accurate in looking at people. Yesterday I deliberately mentioned today''s affairs in front of the Mohist family, but the Mohist family looked indifferent, as if these people didn''t have to take it to heart at all."


    "Contempt!" Chumo frowned and said.


    "Yes, it''s contempt, just like a big general facing a small soldier''s challenge." Qin Huaiyu nodded.


    "It seems that you don''t have to lose this time. It''s a big deal. If you lose for two months, you''ll go home and have dinner. If Mojia Zi wins, we''ll pay it." Chumo looks at 5000 liang of silver in front of him, and his eyes flash wildly.


    "Bet!" Qin Huaiyu said fiercely.


    Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily. Although they were all born in noble families, the money they usually handle is very limited. More than 5000 liang of silver is enough for them to take risks.


    At this time, a group of people crowded around a young man in white at the gate of the Imperial College.


    "Kong huisuo!" Qin Huaiyu gnashed his teeth and looked at each other.


    "Who should I be? It''s you generals who gamble here. You don''t know how and ruin the reputation of the Imperial College." Kong huisuo looked contemptuously at Qin Huaiyu.


    "It''s none of your business that I''m sitting here. If it''s not a bet, go cool." Qin Huaiyu said mercilessly.


    The Imperial College is divided into two schools, one is behind the civil servants and the other is behind the generals. The two factions were not peaceful either. After the civil servants, they disliked the generals'' ignorance and took the back door.


    After the general, he despised Kong huisuo and others for being poor and dead. The two factions have been unhappy with each other for a long time. This time, Kong huisuo was not going to participate in the plan against the mojiazi, but when he knew that Qin Huaiyu was sitting outside, he immediately agreed.


    As a descendant of the Confucius family, he suppressed the Mohism for his ancestors and cleaned up behind the door.


    "Who says I don''t gamble," Kong huisuo gracefully took out a gold leaf and put it on the gambling table. He said angrily, "I won by myself."


    "OK, as long as you press, I dare to take it!" Qin Huaiyu lined up on the gambling table with one hand and the two fought tit for tat.


    "I''ll press fifty Liang"


    "I press eighty-two"


    "I''ll press a hundred Liang"


    The attendant behind him immediately shouted to press Kong huisuo Sheng. The higher the bet, the more ten thousand taels of the trend will appear in the twinkling of an eye.


    Qin Huaiyu was frightened, but the surface was still light.


    "Mojiazi, I believe your evil!" Qin Huaiyu roared in his heart and trembled when he received the money.


    "So busy!"


    At this time, a sudden voice came, and a young man in black walked over lightly. Looking at the two people who are completely different, looking at the bets on the table, I couldn''t help smiling at the corners of my mouth.


    "Five hundred Liang is the victory of the Mohist school."


    Five gold leaves were neatly placed on the gambling table. Golden eyes shine


    "Who is this, so arrogant!"


    All the imperial college students looked at the young man in black with a fool''s eye. The whole Imperial College was in custody. The Mohist family lost. He even defeated the Mohist family, which was an enemy of the whole Imperial College.


    "Merton!"


    Qin Huaiyu was embarrassed. He used him as a gamble and was caught on the spot. He felt like catching thieves and dirt.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Everyone opened their eyes and looked at the young man in front of them. The Mohist children who had fallen for thousands of years appeared in front of the temple of Confucianism for the first time, stirring up the situation.


    "The Mohist school is coming!"


    The news spread all over the Imperial College like a whirlwind.

 Chapter 31

    "Wine worship Lord, shall we take care of it!" Dr. Fang lingdu frowned at the Guozi supervisor who rushed out crazily.


    "How to manage?" Kong Yingda glared. "Isn''t this a good result? If we let the Mo family retreat, we won''t refute your Majesty''s face. Isn''t this the best of both worlds?"


    As soon as Dr. Fang patted his thigh, he suddenly realized, "yes! Even if the Mo family stays in the Imperial College, they can''t turn over any big waves."


    Kong Yingda smiled. At the same time, he was deeply impressed by his Majesty''s mind. As soon as Mohist Zi arrived, the whole Imperial College was boiling. Don''t you want to see the catfish effect?


    However, who is a catfish, we have to compare before we know.


    At the gate of the Imperial College,


    Kong huisuo took the lead and stood in the front, while the Guozi prison students behind him gathered more and more. Outside the Guozi prison, Merton stood alone at the door.


    One against a group. The whole situation solidified in an instant.


    "Mo Jia Zi!" Kong huisuo stared at Merton with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.


    He is a descendant of Confucius, representing Confucianism, and Merton is a descendant of Mohism. Confucianism and Mohism were famous in the world thousands of years ago. However, after Dong Zhongshu, Confucianism jumped into the study of emperors, and Mohism gradually became lonely.


    Until today, the Mohist and Confucian children have fought again. They each represent the greatest pride in their hearts and can''t afford to lose.


    "Merton, the son of Mohism, pays a visit to all the senior students!" Merton saluted respectfully.


    "Mojiazi, Guozijian is the holy land of Confucianism. If you know something, leave quickly." Wang Ling shouted.


    "Yes, leave quickly!"


    "You are not welcome here!"


    "What are you doing here, a son of Mohism?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Under the instigation of Wang Ling, Guozi''s supervisor was excited one by one and shouted to let mojiazi leave.


    "Confucian Holy Land!" Merton sneered. "As far as I know, when will Guozijian become a Confucian Holy Land in Qufu, Shandong Province?"


    "Mohist fanatics and Guozijian have always been an important place for the Empire to select talents. The doctors here are great Confucianism. Our Guozijian wine offering, Kong Yingda, is the descendants of Kong Sheng. Of course, it can be regarded as the holy land of Confucianism." Wang Ling retorted.


    "So it''s not Confucianism that future generations can''t go to school!"


    "Of course!"


    Merton pointed to Qin Huaiyu and said, "they are also Confucian children!"


    "Er, ER! Qin Huaiyu and his colleagues were all dumbfounded. They were watching the excitement. They didn''t expect that the fire at the city gate would affect the fish in the pond. No, it was the fire at the prison gate that affected the fish in the pond.


    Wang Ling is also a fool. The three of them can''t even recite the Analects of Confucius. Of course, they are not Confucian children. Strictly speaking, they should be regarded as strategists.


    Since the soldiers'' children can enter the Imperial College, they have no reason to prevent the Mohists'' children from entering the Imperial College. Moreover, Merton''s was originally a prince''s child, and Miao Hong was basically qualified for admission.


    Tracing back to the source, the Imperial College is an institution for selecting talents in the Empire, not a speech hall of Confucianism.


    "In that case, I''ll see if you have any three heads and six arms that your majesty can value!" Wang Ling said the truth. These people came forward to embarrass him. On the one hand, they came forward for the sake of the Imperial College, and more importantly, they were jealous of the Emperor''s value for Merton.


    You should know that learning to sell to the emperor''s family is the dream of thousands of scholars, but how to sell to the emperor''s family, of course, is to let the emperor know himself. Now the opportunity has come. If he can surpass the Mo family appointed by the emperor, he will not rank in the emperor''s heart and have an impression. Then he will not rise straight in the future.


    "The Mohist family, if you want to enter the Imperial College, it depends on whether you have that ability! Then I, Wang Ling, will ask for Mohist knowledge on behalf of Guozi school." Wang Ling was the first to come out. These people were invited by him. If he didn''t come out, he wouldn''t make sense.


    "Wang Ling! What a familiar surname!" Merton smiled.


    "He is the son of the king''s censor!" Qin Huaiyu fanned the flames.


    "Oh!" Merton suddenly realized.


    Wang Ling secretly gnashes his teeth. The Wang fish shop is his family''s industry. Merton robbed the market of Chang''an City, forced the Wang fish shop to a dead end, and let shopkeeper Wang break an arm. Beating a dog depends on the owner. Of course, Wang Ling is dissatisfied with Merton. He took the lead in dealing with Merton in series this time.


    "OK, I accept it!" Merton said calmly.


    Merton knew that there would be such a day sooner or later. After all, as a chess piece, he had to have the consciousness of a chess piece. He was thrown out by the emperor to test the catfish effect. How can he stop if there is no storm.


    "As a student of the Imperial College, it is inevitable to recite poetry against each other. In the first game, we are compared to poetry!" Wang Ling said proudly.


    "What a shame!" Qin Huaiyu said contemptuously.


    You know, Wang Ling has always claimed to be the little poet of the Imperial College. Although he boasts more, it can be seen that he has indeed made great efforts in poetry.


    "Ah!" Merton looked at Wang Ling in surprise and wondered if the other party was his own undercover! You should know that you are a traveler with 300 Tang poems.


    But Merton''s surprise was regarded as guilty by Wang Ling. Although reciting poetry against each other is a necessary skill for every student, it is often the most able to test knowledge. Otherwise, there are only a few famous poets.


    Wang Ling secretly complains that you are a little mo family, but you are about 15 or 16 years old. You can read at the age of seven, and how much knowledge you can have. Let''s see.


    "Let''s make frontier fortress poems this time!" Wang Ling took the initiative to attack.


    In order to attack the Mo family head-on this time, Wang Ling had already prepared and wrote many good poems in advance. Even if he didn''t write frontier fortress poems, he also had other alternatives.


    Merton looked at Wang Ling with the eyes of a fool, "frontier fortress poetry. I''ve been reciting ancient poetry since I was a child, and frontier fortress poetry is even more backward."


    "OK, frontier fortress poetry!" Merton nodded.


    "Ah! I''ve fallen into the trap!" Qin Huaiyu regretted. How can they not see that Wang Ling was ready? "


    "It''s obvious that this situation has been doomed since the Mohist school decided to enter the Imperial College." Cheng Chumo said in a deep voice.


    "Then we will lose!" Qin Huaiyu said sadly.


    "That''s possible. Have you ever seen someone bet on losing?" Chumo plays with five golden leaves.


    "Yes!" Qin Huaiyu felt at ease, but thought about it one by one. The Mohists were really rich. They pieced together to get five hundred Liang, and mojiazi took out five hundred Liang.


    "Ah! The Mohist won, don''t we have to pay him five thousand Liang!" Wei Chi Baolin exclaimed.


    All of a sudden, the three had a flesh ache. It was five thousand Liang!

 Chapter 32

    "I''ve heard that there are many warriors in Shuofang, killing all the prisoners for the blue sky."


    Wang Ling finished his poem, stood proudly and looked around the audience.


    "Good!"


    The whole Guozi prison student cheered. It has to be said that Wang Ling is still level. His poems are about the warriors of Shuofang and the heroic deeds of fighting against the Turkic invasion. Whether it''s choosing words, making sentences or encouraging emotions, they are one by one.


    "Wang Ling is worthy of being a famous talent of the Imperial College. This move is really extraordinary. As this poem says, my heart is surging. I wish I could give up my pen and serve the country!"


    "As soon as this poem is published, even the doctor has to be praised. The MOH family son, look how rampant he is now. If I say I''d better admit defeat obediently and go back quickly to avoid disgrace."


    "The Mexican family will lose!"


    "I''ll say, Mozi is insulting himself."


    ¡°¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡£¡±


    Guozi Jiansheng was proud and said that Merton had not written poetry, as if he had lost it.


    Even Kong huisuo nodded slightly. Wang Ling''s poem is indeed an atmospheric and excellent work. There is little chance for mojiazi to turn over.


    "Hiss!" Qin Huaiyu and others were also worried. He didn''t expect Wang Ling to produce such high-level poems. Although they are dandies, they can distinguish good things from bad things. This poem is really good.


    This looks bad. Now it''s not a question of paying mojiazi 5000 Liang. It''s still a question whether the remaining 5000 Liang plus his own 500 Liang can be saved.


    "Mojiazi, you must hold on!" Qin Huaiyu prayed secretly in her heart.


    "Mo Jiazi. How about this poem? Please comment on it." Wang Ling said proudly.


    "Choose words and make sentences. They are superficial." Merton snorted coldly and sniffed.


    "Upright arrogance!"


    The whole Imperial College was in an uproar. I didn''t expect that Mohist was still talking crazy.


    Kong huisuo was also embarrassed. Before, he also thought this poem was good. Mohist Zi hit his face directly.


    "Hum! This Mohist is so arrogant that he bullied me so much!" Wang Ling was furious.


    "Then I''ll have a good look at your style of Mohism!" said Wang Ling, gnashing his teeth.


    "When it comes to frontier fortress poetry, you are just a scholar with no strength to bind chickens. Have you ever been to the frontier, and how do you feel the unique style of frontier fortress poetry? It''s just a groan without illness!" Merton hit his face directly.


    Guozi''s supervisor''s face is very blue. We have no strength to bind chickens. Your Mohist son is just the strength to catch fish. We haven''t been to the frontier. Have you been there.


    "When it comes to frontier fortress poetry, Merton is very kind. When his late father followed his majesty to fight the world, he also had many conflicts with the northern cavalry. When Merton was a child, he was lucky to arrive at the frontier fortress. The magnificent scene has made Merton linger in his dream."


    Merton didn''t talk big. When he was young, he did arrive on the Great Wall with Merlot, but he was still young and had no impression at all.


    "At that time, Merton was still young and had nothing to do in the army. His late father was busy in military affairs. Merton''s happiest time was to ride on the wall of the Great Wall at sunset and look at the vast sand sea outside the Great Wall. A wisp of wolf smoke soared upward. The sunset dyed the whole sky red, and the whole world was vast.


    The desert is covered with smoke, and the long river drops yen. Have you ever seen such wonders of heaven and earth? "


    "The desert smoke is straight, and the long river falls!"


    The whole Guozi prison students were in an uproar. Without comparison, there would be no harm. They thought Wang Ling''s frontier fortress poetry was good before, but compared with the two sentences in front of them, it was worthless. No wonder Merton said that Wang Ling''s poetry was superficial.


    As soon as these two poems came out, a wonderful sunset in the desert immediately appeared in people''s minds.


    "Hoo! How beautiful!"


    A supervisor muttered to himself, immersed in the scene described by Merton, and no one laughed at him because they were shocked.


    "Impossible!" Wang Ling roared in his heart. He didn''t believe that mojiazi could write such amazing poems,


    "Fortunately, there are only two sentences. It''s not a poem at all. I haven''t lost yet." Wang Ling comforted herself again.


    "The long river, called the Yellow River, is our mother river, which gave birth to our 5000 year Chinese civilization. The city is on the side of the Yellow River. It defends the Yellow River and our Chinese civilization. There is an 800 mile sea in front, mountains winding behind, and business travel is cut off. It is like a lonely person holding on alone. At that time, it was a lonely city.


    When Chang''an city is close to each other and sparsely populated, Chang''an City has Sheng and Xiao every night, and there are soldiers and iron horses. Every year when Chang''an city is warm and blooming in spring, it is desolate and Chang''an city is lively and prosperous. People there can only play lonely and sad music with will Qiang flute.


    "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds. There is a lonely city and ten thousand mountains. Why should Qiang flute complain about willows and willows? The spring wind does not pass the Yumen pass."


    "Good poetry!"


    A Guozi supervisor couldn''t help cheering.


    "Good poetry!"


    Many Guozi supervisor students also sincerely sighed, which is really a good poem. Even if it is a different position, in the face of such peerless poetry, it can only bow to the disadvantage.


    "Lost!" Wang Ling''s heart was dead gray. He was so defeated that he had no chance to turn over. Originally, he wanted to step on Merton, but he became a stepping stone to achieve Merton''s reputation.


    "My father told me that this city was called Yumen pass. It was built in the Qin Dynasty. It was the westernmost border pass of the Tang Dynasty. It shouldered the most important mission of the Empire. As long as this city was not broken, the Tang Dynasty would always be peaceful. Soon the war came. The Turks attacked the city for 25 days, and everyone participated in the battle. I was five years old at that time, and my assigned task was Hold firewood and boil water for the wounded. "


    Finally, the Turks withdrew and Yumenguan was saved. However, 60% of the guards in Yumenguan were killed and injured. Even my father left incurable knife wounds because of the battle, and finally died young.


    "In the Qin Dynasty, the moon was bright and the Han Dynasty was closed, and the people of the long march had not yet returned. But the flying generals of the dragon city were here and did not teach Hu Ma to ride the Yinshan Mountain."


    Everything was quiet at the gate of the Imperial College, and no one moved rashly.


    Even if they are prepared and know that this is a good poem, they are shocked to hear such a peerless poem. Moreover, they are all scholars. They are usually intoxicated with poetry and are even more intoxicated. It is like drinking iced plum juice in dog days.


    "Three poems in one city! Three poems in one city! They are all peerless poems!"


    A Guozi supervisor is like in a dream, dreamy nonsense.


    "Pedal pedal pedal!"


    Wang Ling staggered and stepped back three steps.


    He lost, lost completely, convinced.

 Chapter 33

    "There are three poems in one city. From then on, frontier fortress poetry will become the most dazzling poetry in the Tang Dynasty." Guozijian''s government office


    Kong Yingda carefully looked at the three papers in front of her. The two and a half poems were transcribed, and she sighed with conviction.


    Before that, although frontier fortress poems were popular, thanks to the great war achievements of the Tang Dynasty, few famous poems and sentences were spread. I didn''t expect that two and a half poems would appear in the Imperial College at once.


    "What a lonely city, what a mountain, what a Yumen pass. From now on, Yumen pass will be famous all over the world and will become the No. 1 pass in the world!" praised a doctor Guozi.


    Other Guozi doctors also nodded one after another. Those who can enter the Guozijian are all famous scholars. With their knowledge, they don''t know the classics of this word.


    "Wizards!" people could not help but flash a trace of amazement in their eyes.


    "No! Doesn''t that mean that the children of Mohism are likely to win? What should we do in the Imperial College?" said Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy.


    As soon as the voice fell, he found that everyone looked at himself like a fool and couldn''t help touching his head.


    "Do you still want to extrapolate from the amazing students?" Kong Yingda glared at Liu Yinian angrily, suppressing his anger.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Liu Yinian was in a cold sweat for a moment.


    Yes! If you can write such amazing poems, where can you find such talent, and some people want to extrapolate, isn''t that the biggest fool.


    "Maybe he''s just good at poetry. He may not be able to win when he meets other students." Liu Yinian argued that he is full of confidence in the students of the Imperial College. After all, the Imperial College is a collection of elites all over the country. How much can he learn as a Mohist from his mother''s womb!


    "Hou Zhicheng is defeated!"


    "Cui Chengxuan lost!"


    Merton lost two people in a row in a short time, shaking the Imperial College.


    "Ah!"


    All the doctors of the Imperial College were numb.


    "Impossible!" Liu Yinian said crazily.


    Hou Zhicheng is the leader of the Imperial College. As for Cui Chengxuan, they are the legitimate talents carefully cultivated by the Cui family of Qinghe. Liu Yinian knows their knowledge, and they are all top-notch.


    Rao is so. If these two people lose one after another in the hands of mojiazi, isn''t it that mojiazi is stronger.


    "The Mo family is so naughty. They must be arrogant and difficult to manage. It''s better to give it to my Imperial College and let me teach it well." the Imperial College doctor said generously.


    "The Supreme Master teaches the five classics, and the Mohist is probably not very happy to listen to it. Let him come to my law school! There is no conflict between Legalists and Mohists." the doctor of law was not fooled and immediately prepared to rob people.


    "Mathematics is compatible with all disciplines and does not involve the contradictions of thousands of years ago. Let''s come to us!" Dr. mathematics also joined the looting regiment.


    The whole Imperial College immediately became chaotic and set off a war of robbing people.


    Merton, who is still fighting at the moment, doesn''t know that he has been admitted in advance by the doctor of the Imperial College. Now he officially looks at the fierce enemy in front of him.


    Kong huisuo!


    "Kong huisuo, the 32nd grandson of Confucius, met the descendants of Mohism." Kong huisuo bowed.


    "Merton, the son of Mohism, has seen the descendants of Kong Sheng." Merton bowed back.


    They both adopted ancient rites, and each represented their most powerful belief theory.


    The dispute between Confucianism and Mohism reappeared.


    Even if I had a hunch that this moment would come sooner or later, I didn''t expect that Kong huisuo would take the lead in standing up before he did anything about arithmetic and calligraphy.


    However, I don''t know that Kong huisuo has a reason to have to stand up. The Mohist family has defeated three people in a row. If he doesn''t do it and let the Mohist family win in a row, what''s the significance of leaving him in the end? He takes the lead to break the rhythm of the Mohist family''s winning streak. The Imperial College also has a reason to win.


    "I don''t know what your excellency wants to compete with?" Merton asked solemnly.


    "Poetry is nothing but a little Doyle. Today we compete on the policy of governing the country." Kong huisuo suddenly changed the content of the competition because he knew that he could not beat Merton in literary talent.


    Merton looked deeply at Kong huisuo''s last words, nodded meaningfully and said: OK, please ask Kong Xuechang to make a question.


    "The policy of governing the country lies in virtue, and the policy of governing the people lies in benevolence,...... the country prospers with virtue, and the people benefit from benevolent government." Kong huisuo is worthy of being the elite of Confucianism. He talks about the Confucian policy of governing the country with benevolence, which makes people nod and agree with it with conviction.


    Kong huisuo blushed when he talked about the whole policy of governing the country. Today, he will surely be famous in Chang''an City after defeating the Mohist school. His policy of governing the country will also be heard by the emperor. At that time, the day when Kong huisuo will prosper is not far away.


    "Please consult brother Mo!" Kong huisuo waved a white fan and looked at Merton proudly.


    "Confucius'' benevolent and virtuous policy is really exquisite." Merton also had to praise Kong huisuo for his certain talent.


    Kong huisuo''s face could not help but float a proud expression. When it comes to the policy of governing the country, of course, they are the most brilliant Confucians. The Mohist set has long passed, and now I can''t turn over any big waves.


    "But......!" Merton paused and immediately made Kong huisuo face a great enemy.


    "But once our son supervisor graduates, the best appointment is the county magistrate. If Confucius learns to govern a county, how will he implement the policy of benevolence and morality?"


    "Of course it''s running a school! I''ll promote enrollment in the county and teach Kong Sheng benevolent government. In three years, there will be great governance in the county." Kong huisuo said solemnly.


    "There was a famine in the county government office, and the food in the county government office could only be one of disaster relief and school running. I don''t know how Master Kong would choose!" Merton asked again.


    Kong huisuo secretly despised Merton and wanted to set me up. No way. Who doesn''t know the first priority is disaster relief. Then he said without hesitation: "disaster relief!"


    "There are only 20000 tons of grain in the county yamen, 75000 victims, 30000 adults and 45000 old and weak people. Adults need to eat five Liang a day and the old and weak need to eat three Liang a day. How long can Kong Xuechang''s Grain Support in the county yamen?" Morton asked.


    "Eh!" Kong Hui Thornton was silly. He didn''t expect that Merton would have trouble in mathematics. Although the Imperial College also studied mathematics, he never paid attention to it. Moreover, Merton was the most insidious. He even came to divide the victims into adults and the old and the weak, which increased the difficulty of calculation.


    "Joke, of course, relief food will be distributed by special officials." Kong huisuo changed his face.


    "If you can''t calculate it in advance, what will you do if the relief is delayed? If the county magistrate doesn''t care about the food and pay, and the relief officials are corrupt, which causes the victims to lose the relief food, what will the people do?" Merton pursued.


    "That''s only the national law to punish corrupt officials." Kong huisuo said angrily.


    "If the disaster victims in the county can''t survive because they lose relief food and rise up, do you think you can still be a county magistrate? Is it the fault of petty officials or your fault!" a hint of irony floated from the corner of Merton''s mouth. This is Confucianism without grain division. What''s the use of such talents?


    "I..." Kong huisuo was sweating and frustrated. No matter how good the benevolent government is, it is also based on peace and prosperity. If it happens to be a troubled year, such a county magistrate will only do bad things. What''s the use of a county magistrate who can''t solve practical problems.


    Descendants of the Confucius family vs children of the Mohist family.


    Merton won.

 Chapter 34

    The news that mojiazi defeated Kong huisuo spread all over the Imperial College. No one thought that mojiazi had outstanding tricks and defeated Kong huisuo with the loophole of mathematics.


    "Win, win!" Qin Huaiyu was excited. The six subjects of the Imperial College and the mojiazi had won four games and were doomed to win. Wouldn''t that mean that nearly 10000 liang of the Imperial College''s bets had lost.


    "This is cheating, shameless!" some people refused to admit defeat.


    "It''s really a big deal to treat the victims. A county magistrate can''t even treat the victims well. What else should he do?" Chumo retorts with a sneer., He has long been unhappy with Kong huisuo because he is a descendant of the Kong family. Usually his eyes grow to his head and despise their connections through the back door.


    "Yes!" Wei Chi Baolin nodded heavily, suddenly patted her thigh and said in a startled voice: "the Mohist son has invested 500 Liang. According to the bet, don''t you want to compensate him 5000 Liang."


    "Ah!" suddenly Qin Huaiyu and Chumo felt a lot of pain. It was five thousand Liang! They worked hard to set up a gambling game and took so many risks. In the end, they didn''t earn as much as Mozi, and they were divided among three people.


    When Qin Huaiyu thought of Merton''s bet, he looked at the bet. It was only five hundred and two bets. Can it be said that the Mohist family had calculated it in advance? The Mohist family''s arithmetic was really terrible.


    "Kong huisuo lost!" Kong Yingda said in amazement.


    Kong huisuo is the son of the Kong family who has high hopes. His knowledge and insight can be said to be first-class. Even he was defeated in front of the Mo family.


    When the messenger described the debate between them one by one, Kong Yingda was stunned.


    "This is opportunism. How can arithmetic be the policy of governing the country!" Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, jumped up and retorted.


    "Arithmetic is not the policy of governing the country!" Liu Yinian deeply offended the doctor of mathematics. The doctor of mathematics jumped up immediately and retorted: "the state taxes, your salaries and the operation of all places do not have to use arithmetic!"


    "Well, in any case, if you lose, you will lose! Next, there are arithmetic and calligraphy to see if they can save some face for the Imperial College." Kong Yingda said dejectedly. This time, the Imperial College lost a lot of face and was defeated by the Mohist school. The rest depends on whether you can win two games or pass the game.


    "Calligraphy will not disappoint the Toastmasters!" Liu Yinian said quickly.


    "Don''t worry, sacrificial wine maker. The Mohist school is also smart in mathematics. This time, it is Zu Mingjun, the descendant of Zu Chongzhi, who represents mathematics. He has profound attainments in mathematics and family knowledge, so he can''t lose." the doctor of mathematics also patted his chest and promised.


    However, as soon as the voice fell, a flustered voice came from outside: "worship Lord, it''s not good. I lost my math again!"


    "Ah!" the doctor of mathematics consciously ran by 10000 * * * and hit his face too loudly.


    "What''s the matter? How could you lose so fast?" Kong Yingda roared.


    The doctor of mathematics also wanted to know what was going on. It was only a little later that Zu Mingjun lost! Isn''t that worse at math.


    No! Zu Mingjun, he has personally tested it. His mathematical attainments are not below himself!


    "What''s wrong with the Mohist school!" the doctor of mathematics asked hurriedly.


    The messenger quickly replied, "it''s still a disaster relief problem. There are only 20000 loads of food in the county government office, 75000 victims, 30000 adults and 45000 old and weak. Adults need to eat five Liang a day and the old and weak need to eat three Liang a day."


    "How difficult is this? It can be calculated in a quarter of an hour at most according to the level of Zu Mingjun." the doctor of mathematics frowned.


    "Er, er, the Mohist added again! Master Zu immediately threw in his pen and admitted defeat!" the messenger said weakly.


    "What conditions!" Kong Yingda said in a deep voice, suppressing his anger.


    "If 500 refugees from other counties enter the county every day and 700 victims leave the county every day, how long can the county''s food support?"


    As soon as the messenger''s voice fell, everyone remained silent and bowed their heads.


    Soon one after another sighed and gave up. Only the doctor of mathematics was still dead.


    "I can''t figure it out!"


    However, it was only twenty minutes before the doctor of mathematics gave up.


    Yes, this is the crazy problem of future primary school students. A water inlet and a water outlet discharge water in the pond. When can the pond be filled. Merton got Datang. It''s a weapon without solution.


    "Great humiliation, great humiliation, in my opinion, the Mohist school sent by your majesty is very far sighted, and the Imperial College has a big problem! Question one, do you see what students the Imperial College has trained!" Kong Yingda could no longer suppress his anger and roared.


    Before, they all thought that the Imperial College was the first official school, and all the knowledge and talents in the world were in the Imperial College, but they didn''t expect that a son of Mohism would beat down all the pride of the Imperial College.


    Obviously, it can be seen that the problem that Mozi defeated Kong Hui''s theory and Zu Mingjun is actually the same problem, or the real problem is the problem that Kong Hui''s theory faces, and Kong huisuo''s problem is only a simplified version.


    Kong huisuo consciously turned the world upside down for a while. The title given to him by Mohist Zi was actually a weakened version. That doesn''t mean that Mohist Zi attached more importance to the famous ancestor than him, which made the arrogant Kong huisuo how to stand it.


    "The Mohists deceived people too much!" Kong huisuo only felt that the sky turned upside down for a while, and he fainted, causing a scream.


    Unlike Kong huisuo''s unbearable, Zu Mingjun simply conceded defeat and kept thinking about Merton''s problem.


    The unprecedented practical problems and problems made Zu Mingjun open a new door to the mathematical world. She had a hunch that if she could understand it, it would be an achievement beyond her ancestors.


    "There''s the last door left!"


    Everyone''s eyes focused on Xiong maocai, a scholar of calligraphy. Now the honor of the Imperial College has been placed on him.


    Xiong maocai looked at Merton coming gradually, like a great enemy, staring at Merton''s every move.


    "Xiong maocai, it''s up to you!" shouted the Imperial College.


    Xiong maocai felt uneasy. Although he had confidence in his font after 20 years of hard training, the mojiazi was too cruel! The last one lost, Wang Ling, surnamed Cui, which is no better than him, not to mention Kong huisuo and Zu Mingjun. Even they lost cleanly. What qualifications does Xiong maocai have to stop each other.


    He hates Wang Ling now. If he hadn''t taken measures behind him, how could he fall into the situation of riding a tiger.


    Soon, mojiazi came to him and looked at mojiazi smiling at him. He suddenly felt a cold in the bottom of his heart. It was terrible.


    "I admit defeat!" Merton went to Xiong maocai and said seriously.


    "Come on, I''m not afraid of you... Oh! What are you talking about?" Xiong maocai stared round. He wanted to say something cruel. He didn''t hear Merton clearly and asked incredulously.


    "I admit defeat!" Merton said word by word.


    "Oh!" Xiong maocai stood motionless as if struck by lightning.


    Looking at the back of mojiazi leaving, Xiong maocai was still like in a dream. He won. He wanted to cheer, but he couldn''t cheer.


    Because his victory was given by the other side. He didn''t win.


    Other imperial college students also had a heavy heart. Five to one, the Imperial College was defeated miserably. When they discussed with great momentum to find mojiazi trouble, where did they think they would lose so miserably.


    When the war ended, Guozi supervisor lost money and lost people.

 Chapter 35

    "Calligraphy wins!"


    When the messenger spread the news to Kong Yingda, all the doctors of Sinology breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Imperial College didn''t lose too much face. The last book saved face.


    "Hahaha, I said that Mohist is not invincible, and he also has weaknesses!" Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, laughed wildly. Now he is proud of himself, and the other five studies have failed miserably, but he won in mathematics, which greatly increased his face.


    "Quickly present their handwriting and let the sacrificial Lord comment!" Liu Yinian said ostentatiously.


    "Er, ER!" the messenger said, "Sir, they didn''t write!"


    "What''s the matter? Didn''t Xiong maocai win?" Liu Yinian angrily said, giving a good chance to show off, since there will be such a change.


    "I tell you, sir, mojiazi and Xiong didn''t write, but mojiazi thought he was invincible and immediately threw in his pen to admit defeat!" the messenger hurriedly said.


    "Ah!"


    Liu Yinian suddenly blushed, as if the duck had been caught by the neck and made an unconscious sound.


    "Take the initiative to admit defeat!" the Guozijian doctors suddenly had a sudden change of mind. How to say calligraphy? Everyone can write, but it is easy to learn but difficult to master, but if you work hard, everyone has a chance to learn it.


    In the end, is it really that mojiazi''s calligraphy is not good, or does mojiazi take care of the face of the Imperial College, take the initiative to admit defeat and reserve some face for the Imperial College.


    However, Dr. Zhong still prefers the latter. After all, mojiazi, who can write three poems of the frontier fortress, can''t be too bad in calligraphy.


    "The Mohists are good!" Kong Yingda nodded slightly with a wisp of beard. Although such a talented and sophisticated teenager is in an opposite scene, people can''t help but admire him.


    Other doctors also nodded slightly. Mojiazi could take care of the face of the Imperial College, so that they would not lose their face. He also expressed his intention not to tear his face with the Imperial College.


    "Well, since we lost five to one in the Imperial College, let''s admit defeat by gambling. Go and call mojiazi up and go through the formalities for entering the Imperial College!" Kong Yingda admitted defeat by gambling, and other doctors didn''t object. After all, mojiazi won by virtue of his real ability.


    "Yes!"


    The messenger left quickly.


    Soon.


    "Dong Dong!" a knock came at the door.


    Kong Yingda looked up and saw a young man in black standing at the door, politely standing outside the door.


    "Be polite!" Kong Yingda moved in her heart and knocked on the door gently, which can not only remind people that there is someone at the door, but also make people feel annoyed. This etiquette is worth promoting in the Imperial College.


    "Merton, see you gentlemen!" Merton bowed.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Dr. Guozi thought in his heart that he looked at the young people in front of him one by one. He was such a weak young man. He directly turned over the whole Guozi prison and let the Guozi prison lose face.


    However, the young man did know how to advance and retreat. He didn''t kill all of them. Finally, he let the son of the Imperial College. He was so talented and learned that he knew how to advance and retreat. Why weren''t the children of Confucianism!


    "Merton!" Kong Yingda looked at Merton and said solemnly.


    "The younger generation is here!" Merton saluted.


    "Since your majesty has arranged for you to enter the Imperial College, it is a love for you. You must devote yourself to study in the future and not live up to your Majesty''s expectations. You will succeed in your studies in the future, serve the country and be loyal to the country!" Kong Yingda solemnly said.


    "Follow the instructions of the sacrificial Lord!" Merton replied formally.


    "Then go through the admission formalities!"


    It''s very complicated for the Imperial College to go through the admission procedures, but Merton''s situation is special. All the materials have been prepared. Only the first few words are good! "


    Merton respectfully took over the enrollment register and wrote his name one by one with a brush on the table next to the scene.


    Kong Yingda looked at the solemn appearance of mojiazi and couldn''t help nodding with satisfaction. No matter what his position, at least now it seems that mojiazi is still a teachable talent.


    "The students have written it!" Merton closed the roster of the Imperial College and handed it to Kong Yingda!


    "Go down!" Kong Yingda said with a wisp of beard.


    "Yes!" Merton replied.


    I don''t know what''s going on. Kong Yingda and Dr. Guozijian''s Mo family feel embarrassed to escape back.


    When she opened the roster, Kong Ying stared round at Dayton, and a mouthful of tea rushed out in a panic.


    "What''s the matter with the wine offering adults!" Dr. Guozi was shocked one by one. They couldn''t think of how the wine offering with deep self-restraint could be so impolite.


    "Cough! Cough!" Kong Yingda coughed for a long time. After a little delay, he handed the roster to the people.


    Doctors can''t wait to open the roster.


    "No problem!" the crowd wondered.


    But when we turned to the last name, we saw that Merton was askew as an earthworm looking for his mother''s font. One by one, we couldn''t help but have the impulse to spit blood.


    Where is the font of Guozijian students? It''s better than that written by beginners.


    "Mojia Zi, bullying people too much!" Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, roared to the sky. It turned out that you Mojia Zi didn''t want to take care of the face of the Imperial College, but your calligraphy really didn''t work. It wasn''t work, but it was simply ugly, and it was rotten wood.


    Merton ran away in embarrassment. He also felt very wronged. If other things could be made up for, but he only practiced calligraphy for a few days when he was a child and gave up. Now it''s too late to practice!


    "Fortunately, I run fast! What if these people repent!" Merton was terrified and patted his heart. He entered the Imperial College, but his majesty appointed him. If his font failed to achieve the goal, he would have a bad impression in Li Shimin''s heart. In the future, he still wants to stay in Datang, and Li Shimin''s big thick leg will be held firmly.


    Fortunately, Kong Yingda was willing to gamble and admit defeat. Instead of embarrassing Merton, she was out of sight and out of mind. She directly sent a Book office to take Merton to handle the enrollment affairs.


    "Master Mo, this is your course!" the book office of the Imperial College is very curious about the new student, but it is also very polite.


    Merton took over a pile of Confucian classics with a bitter smile, heavy as a schoolbag of a primary school student.


    The book office also led Merton to find a place to teach, as well as Merton''s school. The school of the Imperial College is shared by four people. Because no one is willing to share the dormitory with Merton, Merton is honored to be assigned to a single room.


    "The Imperial College is closed once every ten days. Usually, it is not required to live in the school, but it is still necessary to live in the school because of sudden changes in the weather or when the big exam is approaching." the book office kindly reminded.


    "Thank you!" Morton said gratefully, "I don''t know the name of the senior. I''ll be very grateful in the future!"


    The book office is generally a graduate of the National Academy of Sciences. For the time being, there are no students in the official position, so it is not wrong for Merton to call him a senior.


    "Don''t dare, I''m shangguanyi!"


    "Oh!" Merton suddenly opened his mouth. This is the bull man in the future!


    incorrect! Your granddaughter is better.


    "There will be food in the school at noon. You can have dinner. The price is much more affordable than outside!" after shangguanyi reminded, he declined Merton''s invitation and left.


    "All right!" Merton didn''t force him to stay. After all, his reputation as a Mohist was not good in the Imperial College. It was also right that others had estrangement.

 Chapter 36

    Guozijian canteen.


    As soon as Merton entered the canteen with the newly bought bowl, the noisy canteen immediately quieted down.


    "The Mohist school is coming!"


    "He is the MOH family!"


    The supervisors talked and pointed. Some students who didn''t arrive in the morning opened their eyes and wanted to see what Merton had.


    "Do you know? It''s said that Mohist calligraphers didn''t deliberately admit defeat, but they were really poor." a student whispered mysteriously.


    "No!" some people don''t believe it. After all, Merton''s knowledge is there, and calligraphy is no worse.


    "It''s true. Dr. Liu said it himself. After a look, he lost his appetite all day. Do you think Dr. Liu didn''t come!" the student said solemnly.


    "Really?"


    "In my opinion, the Mexican family is fishing for fame and reputation and deliberately admit defeat. I think they are afraid of losing their face!"


    "Too false!"


    For a moment, all living beings in the Imperial College talked about it one after another, as if they had found a vent for their failure and demoted Merton to nothing. Even the chef in the canteen didn''t like Merton, so he buckled the food in Merton''s turn over jar, as if Merton owed him much for the meal.


    "Boss, harmony makes money. You can''t do good business like this," Merton warned.


    "Like to eat or not!" said the rice seller with his eyes on his head and his nostrils.


    Merton smiled and took back the rice bowl. When he saw that there was an empty table, he came forward and sat down.


    "Brush!"


    All the Confucians around got up and looked for another place. There was no student within three feet of Merton


    "Er!"


    Merton touched his nose with a wry smile. A Strider unexpectedly encountered campus bullying - cold violence.


    In contrast to Merton, Xiong maocai was treated like a hero. Many students gathered around Xiong maocai, desperately belittling Merton and praising Xiong maocai!


    "Hum! I want him to look good in the future!" Xiong maocai looked at Merton with high air and disdain. His heart was full of excitement. The whole Guozi prison student was destroyed. Only he, the great scholar Xiong, turned the tide and won face for the Guozi prison. Isn''t he the first person in the Guozi prison,


    "The Cui family elite, the descendants of the Kong family and the descendants of the ancestral family still need to see his great talent!" Xiong maocai was excited.


    "Are you really bad at calligraphy, or do you deliberately drain water!" Chumo puts his oversized rice bowl in front of Merton.


    Merton looked at his job, which was only a little higher than Chumo''s. The heart sighed, "what a good appetite."


    Looking at Chumo''s huge bowl of top-notch food, Merton immediately felt that he had lost his appetite. He put down his dishes and chopsticks and said, "no, no, who wouldn''t write his deliberately so ugly?"


    "Yes, I write my own name best!" Wei Chi Baolin said proudly holding his big bowl.


    Come on, two losers make a pair.


    "He''s telling the truth!" Qin Huaiyu also sat down with his big bowl. Now he is very confident in his eyes.


    "Speak, if you sit on my side, you are not afraid to offend these people!"


    Merton pointed to the national son supervisor who was three feet away from him.


    "Cut! We are afraid of them, a group of fools!" Qin Huaiyu sniffed.


    "Shit!"


    Guozi supervisor someone whispered.


    "Touch!" Wei Chi Baolin put the bowl heavily on the table, got up and looked around fiercely.


    The imperial college student immediately retracted his head and dared not be weird anymore.


    "Besides, we still have business this time. This is your bet!" Qin Huaiyu put five golden leaves in front of Merton.


    "Oh!" Merton raised his eyebrows and said, "how about winning ten times the bet?"


    A wooden box was heavily placed on the table. Chumo opened it directly and saw that it was full of white silver. All the Imperial College Students immediately breathed sluggishly and their eyes were red.


    This is their money. Because they lost so much money, they can only chew dry pancakes now, and this kind of day will last at least a month.


    Looking at the bad smile in Qin Huaiyu''s eyes, Merton was 100% sure that the three people must have deliberately distributed bets in front of so many people in the canteen in order to revenge themselves for winning the big head.


    Merton raised his eyebrows, gently covered the wooden box, looked at the three and said, "I heard you three won almost 5000 Liang!"


    Merton''s voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear. Guozi Jiansheng immediately focused his angry eyes on Qin Huaiyu.


    It''s these three bastards who are gambling in the Imperial College.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at the cannibal eyes of Guozi''s supervisor, secretly scolded the Mohist School for being insidious, and hurriedly said, "there''s no big head here. My brother eats a lot and is very poor."


    In an emergency, Qin Huaiyu didn''t care about the fact that they were a loser.


    Merton''s heart moved, his eyes turned sharply, and seemed to say unintentionally: "I''m not afraid of a large amount of food, but Mojia village plans to run a food business recently. Since you don''t have money, you''ll send it. Please eat it at that time!"


    "Ah! That''s great. The Mohists are friends!" Wei Chi Baolin was ecstatic as soon as he heard it. How much money can he save! This is good news for him who is nervous!


    "Cough! Food business? Is it delicious?" Chumo is more after quality.


    Morton blanched his eyes, picked the poor food in the bowl and said, "this is a pig food!"


    "No, it''s delicious!" Wei Chi Baolin takes a big bite of the food and chews it, making Chumo and Qin Huaiyu roll their eyes.


    What a fool. It''s said that it''s pig food. You still eat it. However, they turned to think that if this is true, the business of Mojia village will definitely make money!


    Apart from other things, Mozi still has the ability to make money. The Mozi village, which has fed 5000 people just by its secret skills of living fish, is praised by their parents. This year, the three people are miserable. In their parents'' mouth, other people''s children are Mozi''s children. They are as old as them. They are already so good, and how frustrated they are, Even the money is much less.


    The original well-off life of the three people suddenly fell near the food and clothing line. If it weren''t for them, they wouldn''t take risks and start a gamble.


    "The Mo family is short of money?" Chumo and Qin Huaiyu look at each other and nod slowly.


    "Brother Mo!" Qin Huaiyu pushed politely to the edge of Merton, complimenting him.


    "Don''t talk!" Merton said with a cold war.


    "I don''t know how big brother''s food business is!" Qin Huaiyu said.


    "Five thousand Liang is not bad, ten thousand Liang is better!" Merton said slowly.


    "That brother has made a little money by you this time. It''s better to help brother Mo! Let''s take out another 5000 Liang to help brother Mo!" Qin Huaiyu said with boundless righteousness. In fact, Qin Huaiyu''s three men had a principal of 500 Liang and won another 45002. Together, they were just 5000 Liang.


    "You want to take a stake!" Merton raised his eyebrows.


    "Yes!" Chumo and Qin Huaiyu nod heavily. Yuchi Baolin hesitates for a moment and nods hurriedly.


    "How much do you want!" Merton asked.


    "How about fifty-five?" Qin Huaiyu said hesitantly.


    Merton squinted at Qin Huaiyu! A sneer.


    "No, six or four, you six and I four!" Qin Huaiyu said shyly. It seems that Merton and Qin Huaiyu pay the same money, but there is also Merton''s secret recipe. It is unreasonable to divide the manpower and material resources of Mojia village by 50-50.


    Merton continued to sneer.


    "You''re seven and I''m three. We''re three of us." Chumo said heavily.


    Merton takes an unexpected look at Chumo. Unexpectedly, Chumo is the most decisive of the three.


    "OK, I''ll give you 30%, but you should be responsible for buying stores!" Merton agreed to the plan and added another condition. The three of them are small overlords in Chang''an city. No one dares to provoke them. Having them can save a lot of trouble.

 Chapter 37

    Chapter 37


    Merton solved the start-up fund of Mojia village without spending a penny, and found a way to make money for Mojia village. He was ready to be a good student in the Imperial College quietly. To be exact, it was a muddle.


    However, the outside world has long been surging. The status of the Imperial College is equivalent to the superposition of Tsinghua and Peking University in later generations. It can be imagined that there is a dispute between Confucianism and Mohism in such colleges and universities, which is big news.


    However, the bigger explosive point was whether the Imperial College lost or lost by a big score. As soon as the news came out, it immediately detonated the whole city


    In less than half a day, the gambling fight in the Imperial College had spread all over Chang''an city,


    "Hoo! It''s so powerful that the Mohist school is against the sky!" someone exclaimed. I can''t believe it.


    "Five to one, is it possible that the Imperial College has declined so far, and Confucianism is not prosperous! Let the Mohists be rampant." an old Confucian student shouted out in pain.


    "Hum, those sour scholars in the Imperial College also have today. Their eyes are higher than the top at ordinary times. Now it''s screwed up!" many people gloat.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The whole streets, restaurants and restaurants of Chang''an city are full of discussions. In this era of lack of entertainment, it is not easy to have a sensational event, which suddenly aroused the gossip psychology of the people.


    "Go and find out. We need to know the specific situation of the elite of the Mohist School in the Warring States period." a diner shouted excitedly in the pan family restaurant.


    "OK!" shouted the waiter.


    However, the waiter was no longer Guo Wei. After the collapse of the fish Gang, Guo Wei, as an accomplice, had already been sentenced to imprisonment for thousands of miles. Boss pan learned a lesson and brought an honest and reliable nephew from his hometown. He handled affairs neatly and with great care.


    Soon boss Pan''s nephew sent the details of the battle between Merton and Guozi Jiansheng. The whole result made everyone happy.


    "The desert is lonely and smoke is straight, the river is falling yen! Good poetry and good scenery." the old Confucian whispered intoxicated.


    "The Yellow River is far away from the white clouds, and there is a lonely city with ten thousand mountains. The ink family is fascinated by the scenery. We are thousands of miles away from the Yumen pass, but it''s like visiting in person. When it comes to light!" Sun Ju Ren suddenly took a big sip of wine and an abnormal blush appeared on his face.


    "According to me, the moon was shining in the Qin Dynasty, the moon was shining in the Han Dynasty, and the people on the long march had not yet returned, but the flying generals of the dragon city were here, and they did not teach Hu Ma to ride the Yinshan Mountain. This is the peerless saying." his companion also silently poured down a mouthful of wine and said with regret.


    "It''s a great blessing to have three poems about the frontier fortress today.


    "From then on, the Yumen pass will be called the most powerful pass in the world, and the Mozi will also be famous in Chang''an." Sun Ju was filled with jealousy. He usually wrote thousands of poems, but none of them spread in the world, while the Mozi opened his mouth and wrote three poems, all of which spread through the ages.


    The three poems of the frontier fortress are completely popular, and their influence is expanding.


    Indeed, at the moment, the three poems of the frontier fortress of Mohist school have already reached the horizon. As long as it is a scholar, the major private schools temporarily add one more class to teach the three poems of the frontier fortress, and the reading people don''t copy them.


    A mansion in Chang''an.


    A young master tidied up his new clothes, led a tall horse, and was about to go out in fresh clothes.


    Suddenly he saw his father rush out with a ruler in his hand and hit him.


    "Father, the child didn''t make a mistake," said the young master wrongfully.


    "Rebel, you still don''t repent. Look at your blood. If Lao Tzu hadn''t sent twice as many private schools to repair, Lao Tzu Zhang would have swept you out of the house. People''s Mojia Zi could support the whole Mojia village and write three poems about the frontier fortress at a young age, and you! You know Hu Hun all day! This family will be white by you sooner or later. Now get back to review your lessons and ask for help If you don''t study hard, you''ll break your dog legs to save you from being disgraced again. "My father said angrily.


    In the study, the young master looked at the mountains of books in front of him with a look of fate, and cried sadly and angrily, "Mexican family, I''m not finished with you."


    Many of these things happened in various mansions in Chang''an city. The story of Mohist Zi was mentioned again. He took on the responsibility at a young age and supported the important task of 5000 people in Mohist village. His promise in Mohist village made Mohist village the richest village in Chang''an city. Although it has not yet been realized, it has changed the poor and backward face of Mohist village in a short time.


    In his studies, he wrote three poems about the frontier fortress, which shocked the world, and defeated five elites of the Imperial College one after another. On the other hand, his children were not angry, learned nothing, ate, drank and played, didn''t want to make progress, and didn''t dispel their hatred.


    Thinking more angry, he picked up the ruler and rushed into the study. Suddenly, there was another burst of chicken flying and dog jumping.


    In the brothel,


    The wine overflows with wine.


    "Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze doesn''t pass the Yumen pass!" the brothel woman has a unique singing voice and sings this poem with great charm.


    "Good!"


    As soon as the woman''s singing fell, the guests cheered.


    The brothel women are the most sensitive. After they get the three songs from the frontier stronghold, they immediately write them into a song. Once they start singing, they will certainly attract cheers from the whole hall, which benefits the brothel women a lot. They secretly thank Merton. The more enthusiastic and bold red card women directly shout to the mojiazi and want to recruit mojiazi as the guest of the curtain. They don''t accept any money and just ask for a poem.


    "Ha ha, magnificent! Yumen pass!" in the camp, a general laughed wildly with a poem. The soldiers around him understood the general''s mood. The general participated in the Yumen pass war in those years and made great contributions, so he was promoted to general.


    "I didn''t expect that the skin monkey in those years has grown up! Lao Mo can be regarded as a successor!" the general said with a happy face. Now he still clearly remembers that the skin monkey climbing up and down the Great Wall has such talent.


    "Old brother, you rest in peace. With this poem, Datang will always remember you. Death is well deserved!" the general said with emotion.


    In the palace.


    Li Shimin is writing. If Merton is here, he will surely find that Li Shimin is writing the three poems of the frontier fortress.


    "... but the flying General of the dragon city is here, and he doesn''t teach Hu Ma to spend the Yin Mountain. Good poetry! I didn''t expect that this little catfish is still very talented." Li Shimin is also a talented person, and he can''t put it down.


    "That''s the emperor''s wisdom. He appointed the Mohist son to the Imperial College!" empress Chang sun snuggled up to Li Shimin gently and helped Li Shimin Polish ink.


    In the harem, empress Chang sun is definitely not the most beautiful. Concubine Yang and concubine Wei are all top beauties, but empress Chang sun''s quiet temperament and innate aura make Li Shimin unable to extricate herself.


    At the moment, the empress Chang sun doesn''t wear jewels or Phoenix robes, but the temperament of the mother''s world is frustrating. Only in front of Li Shimin, the empress Chang sun has a gentle daughter.

 Chapter 38

    "Since the three poems of the frontier fortress are so peerless, Yumen pass must be famous. Why don''t your majesty add a fire to encourage the border officers and soldiers!" empress Chang sun suggested.


    "What the empress said is exactly what I want." Li Shimin was very popular and had a sharp feeling. At present, he was very excited and wrote, "the world can only add icing on the cake, but can''t do practical things to solve problems. Is such a talented and incompetent official really a good official? Li Shimin was deeply suspicious.


    "Your Majesty, don''t be angry. Don''t mention the students in the Imperial College. It''s estimated that many mathematicians can''t figure out the problem of Mohism!" empress Chang sun gently comforted and told another serious fact. This is not an example, but the atmosphere in the whole empire.


    Li Shimin felt a burst of embarrassment. At that time, he was also in high spirits and was interested in solving these two problems. As a result, he found that he would only stack ten thick books neatly on the table of Guozi supervisor. All the students looked at Merton with hostile eyes one by one. It was the culprit in front of them that made them fall into the deep pit of mathematics!


    "Merton, you''re hurting us!" Qin Huaiyu stared at Merton angrily! His studies had been at the bottom, and this time he added arithmetic, which was basically hopeless.


    "That''s it!" Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin look even more miserable. How pitiful they are.


    Merton also smiled bitterly. He didn''t expect Li Shimin to come. He was in a difficult situation. He offended so many people at once and was unpopular everywhere again. In particular, Kong huisuo, the descendant of the Kong family, gnashed his teeth at him.


    Originally, he was not good at mathematics. Now he has to learn mathematics again. That kind of suffering is unbearable.


    "Mojia Zi!" Kong huisuo looked at the total nine chapters of arithmetic and gnashed his teeth.


    The only person who saw Merton have a good face in the whole Imperial College was Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics. It turned out that the status of mathematics in the Imperial College was very embarrassing. Although it was a little higher than calligraphy, it was basically the penultimate. Few people paid attention to ordinary studies.


    Now, the emperor ordered that mathematics should be included in the compulsory examination, and directly promoted the status of mathematics by rocket.


    Correspondingly, his position in the National Academy of Sciences has also been greatly improved. He has mastered the power of life and death whether the students can graduate smoothly. Those colleagues who used to ignore him now greet each other with smiling faces, making this frustrated old scholar feel like a dead tree returning to spring.


    All this was brought by the MOH family. It seems that it is not a bad thing for the Mohists to come to the Imperial College. Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, thought in his heart.

 Chapter 39

    After killing all the students in the Imperial College, Merton was completely famous in the Imperial College!


    When each teacher teaches, he should specially call the roll to see Merton. Merton looks like a giant panda in the zoo.


    "Well, not bad! Merton, sit down!" the doctor nodded with satisfaction


    Merton wiped his cold sweat and sat down. Facing the surprise questions of Dr. Sinology, Merton used a little advanced ideas of later generations to brighten the eyes of Dr. Sinology. He was very satisfied. He even looked at Morton differently,


    "Shameless!" watching Merton flatter all the teachers of the Imperial College one by one, the imperial college student couldn''t help but despise him in his heart.


    "Brother, you are my brother! Teach me a few hands!" Qin Huaiyu ran to ask for advice. He was an old master who was evil to him. How could he be kind to Merton? If he could learn a little, his studies would be much more leisurely in the future.


    "Flattering the teacher means that you should be excellent in your studies in the future. Are you sure you can do it!" Merton raised his eyebrows and asked.


    "Hey!" the three people left with a disappointed sigh.


    Merton also smiled bitterly. He is not a silly nerd. He has offended countless students in the Imperial College. If he doesn''t please the teacher, he may not be far from rolling out his bedding.


    Regardless of other people''s eyes, Merton continued his great cause of pleasing the master.


    "The Mohist school is really good. He finished all the arithmetic I left in a quarter of an hour without any mistakes!" Shen Hongcai, a doctor of arithmetic, returned to the master''s office with a look of emotion.


    After a class,


    Guozi''s doctor also sighed with satisfaction: "Mohist''s knowledge is really unique!"


    Another class,


    The doctor of law also appreciated: "the Mo family is so proficient in legalism. Some views are so similar to me, and some are unexpected to me.


    All doctoral students were conquered by Merton and couldn''t stop praising them when they came back. Although they teach all their life, they have a bit of Confucian and Mohist prejudice, but everyone has a love for talent. How can they not be happy in the face of such excellent students.


    "Everybody, don''t make a mistake! Merton is a descendant of Mohism. How can you favor him." Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, said discontentedly.


    "What''s the matter? Kong Sheng still studies in Lao Tzu and teaches the children of Mohism?" the doctor of Guozixue said indifferently.


    "Kong Sheng proposed that there should be no classes! Why can''t the Mohist family teach!" Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, argued.


    Liu Yinian has always been arrogant since he defeated the Mohist School in the letter of confirmation, which has long aroused the dissatisfaction of other doctors. If you say something to me, Liu Yinian will be speechless.


    Liu Yinian went to class with a stomach full of grievances.


    "Merton, this is the big characters you handed in!" Liu Yinian angrily unfolded a rice paper. He saw that the crooked big characters on the rice paper were particularly dazzling.


    "Hahaha!" all the national supervisors laughed loudly, of which Xiong maocai''s laughter was the loudest.


    "Merton, your word..."


    Qin Huaiyu was stunned. They all knew that Mohist calligraphy was very bad, but they didn''t expect it to be so bad. It was inferior to the font of a seven-year-old child.


    "As a student of the Imperial College with the worst font since the founding of the Imperial College, what can you say?" Liu Yinian angrily said.


    "Students can also write well, but they are not used to writing with a brush!" Merton explained. It is the result of his efforts to write words in future generations.


    "What did you use before? Did you still carve bamboo slips and write on the sand table?" Liu Yinian said unkindly.


    "They used to be very poor in Mojia village, so they probably couldn''t afford to buy pens and paper!" Xiong maocai ridiculed loudly.


    "Hahaha!" there was a burst of laughter from the national son''s supervisor. They finally found a sense of superiority in mojiazi. It turned out that mojiazi was still flawed.


    "Remember, I don''t care how well you write on bamboo slips and sand tables, but it has already been eliminated! We Guozijian train officials who can write and review official documents. I don''t care what method and pen you use, you must write neat fonts on the paper!" Liu Yinian roared.


    "Pa Pa Pa!"


    He beat Merton''s palm red and swollen immediately.


    "In the future, as long as you can''t write well, continue to play the ruler until you write well!" Liu Yinian said before leaving.


    Of course, he knows how difficult it is to write well. He just wants to use this method to force Merton to quit. In the future, if Merton can''t stand the yardstick and voluntarily quit school, even the emperor can''t blame him.


    "Si!" Merton looked at the redness and swelling in her hand and couldn''t help taking a breath. She didn''t expect Liu Yinian to be so cruel!


    "Old man Liu, this is a desperate posture!" Qin Huaiyu said discontentedly.


    "Hum! If you can''t hold on, you will automatically withdraw from the Imperial College, and the provincial people will stay here to ruin the reputation of the Imperial College!" Xiong maocai sneered.


    He now has a full sense of superiority in front of Merton. Once he has the opportunity, he always targets Merton.


    "Isn''t it calligraphy? Merton can certainly practice well after a long time of practice!" Qin Huaiyu said loudly.


    "Can you practice well after a long time?" Xiong maocai chuckled.


    "It''s OK for you generals to practice calligraphy. Do you know which one of us here doesn''t practice three or nine times in winter and three or five times in summer? We haven''t had the current font since the seven-year-old child began to practice. If you want to talk about learning or something, there''s a genius, but we''ve never practiced calligraphy!" Xiong maocai said proudly.


    Other Guozijian students around also nodded silently. Practicing calligraphy is indeed the hardest and slowest knowledge to achieve results. Which one has not made enough hard work to achieve today''s achievements.


    "What should I do? I can''t escape old man Liu!" Qin Huaiyu said anxiously.


    "Don''t worry, I can only write well!" said Merton.


    "Hum! Boast and don''t draft. If you can write well in a short time, I Xiong maocai will see you retreat from it. If you can''t write well, don''t support it. Just drop out of school and save yourself humiliation." Xiong maocai taunted.


    "It''s a deal!" Merton said, staring at Xiong maocai word by word.


    Xiong maocai saw Merton''s confident eyes and couldn''t help but burst into a sudden in his heart, but when he thought about his own experience, he only felt that there was no possibility of losing. He immediately nodded heavily and said, "it''s a deal."


    Merton succeeded in killing a man. He really couldn''t write well with a brush, but it''s not that he couldn''t write well with other pens. In his previous life, he was good at hard pen calligraphy. Although the pen couldn''t be made in Mojia village in a short time, he knew the predecessor of hard pen very well. He did it himself in the handicraft class in his previous life.

 Chapter 40

    Goose feather pen, the earliest hard pen that appeared before the advent of pen ball point pen, and Chinese brush have become two major types of pens in the world. Later generations carry forward and press the brush to win the writing world.


    Merton still remembers the steps of making a goose feather pen very clearly. Later generations'' manual classes have been tossed about a lot, and I don''t know how many feathers have been wasted.


    "Young master, I''d better come!" said fuber, looking at Merton''s redness and swelling. His left hand was still pulling goose feathers hard.


    The purple clothes on one side had already shed tears. He cursed the evil Master Liu and beat the young master so hard.


    "No, you can''t do this job well. These goose feathers must keep their roots and wings, and they can''t be damaged at all!" Merton shook his head and said.


    Making a quill pen is a delicate job. There should be no carelessness. In addition, there should be attention to the selection of wings. The five longest feathers on the left wing are the best, because Merton is used to using his right hand. The bending radian of the feathers on the left wing and the inclination of the feather * * are the most suitable habits for his right hand.


    After harming two big white geese, Merton finally got up with a sigh of relief, broke two and collected eight goose feathers.


    "Well, deal with these geese and have dinner tonight!" Merton handed the two dead geese to Mo Wu. Now he has to hurry up to deal with the eight goose feathers. He wants to make a goose feather pen to complete the first step. Next, these goose feathers should be degreased.


    "Brush!" half a pot of sand stir fry in the pot, making a harsh sound,


    "Young master, you''re going to practice iron sand palm!" the tall iron Ann stretched her head and looked at Merton''s half pot of hot sand.


    "Well, it must be. The young master was beaten by the master today! He must want to be an iron sand palm to Blackhand the master of the Imperial College." Ziyi looked at the young master with a worried face for fear that the young master would take risks.


    "You talk too much!" Merton glared at them and ordered Tie''an to buy firewood at the bottom price of the pot. Looking at the fire, the sand slowly began to heat up. Merton gently put a piece of rice paper on the hot sand paper. When the rice paper became scorched yellow and was about to ignite, he hurriedly asked Tie''an to withdraw the fire.


    Eight goose feathers were evenly inserted into the hot sand, and soon a burning smell came to my nose.


    "Young master, what is this?" purple clothes choked with snot.


    "This is called degreasing. The reason why geese can float on the water is that there is a layer of grease on their feathers that is not soaked in water. Now this step is to remove the grease from the goose feather." Merton looked at the gradually scorched goose feather pen with satisfaction and soon took shape.


    "Er, ER!" although Ziyi and tiean didn''t know what the young master said, they still thought the young master was very powerful.


    Eight goose feathers with hardened tails were neatly placed on the table. Merton was relieved that there was only one last step left.


    Merton waved the dagger in his hand. Although it was not as easy to use as the art knife of later generations, he could only make do with it.


    Merton picked up the dagger and carefully tilted it at an angle of 45 degrees to carefully cut the root of the goose feather to expose the flocculent capillary inside. These are the key to the success of the goose feather pen. It depends on them to absorb the ink!


    Then gently drill a hole in the center of the tip, scratch along the hole, round the pen tip, and the whole goose feather pen is successful!


    With the first successful backing, six quill pens were successfully made after one of the other seven quills was accidentally damaged.


    "Hahaha!" Merton was ecstatic.


    "Isn''t it a goose feather? What makes you happy!" the purple clothes skimmed and disdained.


    "You know what, this is the first quill pen in the world. It will replace the quill pen in the future. I Merton will save the students all over the world!" Merton shamelessly takes the credit for making the quill pen. Anyway, it was made in Europe in the eighth century. Now he is the ancestor of inventing the quill pen.


    "You want to save yourself!" Purple belly Fei said.


    Tie''an smiled foolishly. He only felt that the first in the world was very powerful, and the young master was also very powerful.


    "Purple clothes, spreading paper and grinding ink!" Merton said in high spirits.


    Soon, the ink was polished and the rice paper spread out.


    Merton picked up the quill pen, adapted a little, stained with ink, and began to write with flowing water. In less than two quarters of an hour, all the schoolwork left by Mr. Liu had been completed.


    "OK! See what Liu Yinian has to say tomorrow!" Merton looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.


    Guozi''s supervisor had a very hard time these days. First, he lost two months'' living expenses, five wins and one loss, and lost all his face.


    Li Shimin sprinkled salt on his wound and asked all the imperial college students to pass the math before graduation. Everyone''s resentment against Mohist school is overwhelming!


    The only thing that can make Guozi''s supervisor happy is to watch the Mohist School suffer from the board. Under the vigorous publicity of Xiong maocai, the whole prison knows that Merton''s calligraphy is too bad and that Liu Fuzi beat the board.


    "Mohist school! You also have today. You want me to study math hard. Now I''ll be rewarded. Calligraphy will be your biggest nightmare!" Kong huisuo was very happy. His previous symptoms of Qi fainting disappeared. Today, regardless of his sick leave, he came to see Merton suffer the board.


    "Hello, Master Liu!" Kong huisuo saluted respectfully.


    "Well, don''t worry about your temporary failure. Your future must be unlimited!" Liu Yinian encouraged Kong huisuo.


    "Thank you for your enlightenment!" Kong huisuo looked like he had been taught, which greatly satisfied Liu Yinian''s vanity.


    "Good master!"


    "Good master!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Along the way, Liu Yinian received greetings from countless national son supervisors, which made Liu Yinian secretly proud. He decided to embarrass Mohist school. These national son supervisors are important ministers of the future empire. If they can make friends with them, the benefits in the future will be bad.


    Thinking of the excitement, he couldn''t help quickening his pace. He wanted to go to class immediately and directly bombard the mojiazi away.


    "Good master!"


    In class, everyone saluted respectfully.


    Liu Yinian looked at the clean lecture table with satisfaction. A cup of soaked tea was placed on the table, overflowing with aroma.


    Liu Yinian took a sip of tea, nodded with satisfaction, looked flat, and drank, "now start checking, and everyone will hand in their homework."


    "Here comes the good play!"


    Guozi supervisor looked at Merton with excitement on his face.


    "How insidious!" Qin Huaiyu shouted angrily in a low voice.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily.


    "In my opinion, you might as well ask for leave. Don''t you know that old man Liu has been making trouble for you?" Qin Huaiyu advised.


    "It''s okay, I''ll be fine." Merton shook his head and was very moved. At least the three people were really helping him.


    Under the gaze of all Guozi supervisors, Merton slowly got up, went to the lecture table and handed in his works.


    Some sharp eyed students found that the paper handed in by mojiazi was only two thin pages, while other supervisors had a pile of homework.


    Liu Yinian looked at the folded two pieces of paper in front of him. His face was gloomy and angry.


    "At this moment, the MOH family is doomed!" the children''s supervisors were delighted.

 Chapter 41

    "This is your schoolwork!" Liu Yinian said coldly! Weigh two pieces of paper, light as nothing.


    "Yes!"


    Merton didn''t seem to feel the volcano about to erupt in calm, and said as if nothing had happened.


    "I left 500 words and you wrote two pieces of paper! What about the rest?" Liu Yinian sneered.


    "There''s nothing left, just two." Merton said calmly, adding at last, "it''s all finished!"


    "All finished?" Liu Yinian lengthened his tone and looked at Merton with a bad face.


    "You wrote two pieces of paper with 500 words. Are your words the size of ants?" Liu Yinian blew his beard and stared.


    The imperial college students couldn''t help laughing. They were particularly happy to watch Merton eat flat. You know, Liu Yinian was a dead pit of Merton this time. He left 500 words of schoolwork at once. They didn''t write a thick pile, but mojiazi only handed in two thin pieces of paper. Isn''t it obvious that mojiazi didn''t finish his schoolwork!


    "Please give me some advice!" Merton, even the clay figurine, was angry and couldn''t help raising his tone.


    Liu yiniandun was trembling with anger. He didn''t expect that Mozi was still so stubborn. Shakily pointed to Merton and said, "OK, I''ll enjoy your masterpiece. If you don''t finish your homework today, you don''t have to come in the future!"


    Guozijiansheng was immediately happy, and the ink family was finally out of the way.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three were in a hurry. They had just cooperated with Merton in their career, and the Mohists were forced out of the Imperial College. Is this business still going on!


    Kong huisuo and Xiong maocai were filled with joy.


    Liu Yinian angrily opened Merton''s class! The heart is secretly cruel. We must make Merton look good.


    "Hiss! How could it be?" Liu Yinian stared at the small words like ants on the paper.


    How can this happen? Even with the smallest millipen, you can''t write such a small font. Each font is less than the size of the nail cover of your little thumb. The words are square and round, and are neatly arranged on the rice paper.


    What''s more amazing is that each small character is extremely clear, square and neat in structure and clear in strokes, which is clearly an unprecedented font.


    Guozi Jiansheng has been waiting for Liu Yinian to start getting angry, but after a long time, he found that Liu Yinian was motionless and stared at the rice paper in his hand.


    What''s going on? Everyone was puzzled.


    For a long time, Liu Yinian slowly buckled the rice paper in his hand on the table and stared at Merton


    "This is really your homework!"


    "Yes!"


    "You wrote it yourself!" Liu Yinian asked.


    "Yes!" Merton nodded.


    "You really finished your homework!" Liu Yinian was shocked when he said this.


    Two pieces of paper are finished. How is it possible? You should know which one of them has not written more than ten or twenty pieces. Qin Huaiyu was also stunned. They didn''t expect Merton to pass! However, the eyes of the three people lit up in an instant. If they got this method from mojiazi, wouldn''t it be possible to finish their homework in the future!


    "Impossible!" Xiong Mao said suspiciously, "my character is the smallest recognized by the whole Imperial College, and I have written 11 pieces of rice paper. Those surnamed Mo have only written two. I don''t believe it!"


    "Yes, yes!" other national supervisors also questioned one after another.


    "I wouldn''t have believed that two of five hundred words would be enough, but the fact is right in front of me!" Liu Yinian said with a wry smile.


    At the same time, unfold the rice paper in your hand and face the people.


    Dense, all the words are neat and beautiful, just like a wonderful movement. It has fascinated many calligraphy lovers.


    "Good words!" someone couldn''t help but praise.


    However, this man was immediately glared at by everyone. This is indeed a good word, but it was written by their common enemy Mohist Zi. How can he destroy his ambition and raise the prestige of others.


    "It''s impossible. The characters written by mojiazi yesterday are extremely ugly. Now they write such neat fonts. I don''t believe it was written by mojiazi." Xiong Mao doubted. According to his agreement with Merton, if mojiazi can really write such good words, he will lose. It''s estimated that he will take a detour when he meets Merton in the future.


    "I think it''s cheating!" Kong huisuo said faintly.


    "In my opinion, it must be a ghostwriter."


    "The Mo family knows they can''t pass today, so find someone to write it for him!"


    "Such a villain still wants to enter the Imperial College. We can''t afford to lose this man!"


    "Drive this cheating villain out of the country!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone, you and I, directly convicted Merton of cheating.


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t see it anymore. He suddenly stood up and shouted, "cheat, write on behalf of others. You can also find such a pen on behalf of others!"


    Um! Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily. Based on their years of experience in finding a substitute pen, it is absolutely impossible. If you want to find a substitute pen, you must find one that is very similar to your own style and has a high similarity with your own handwriting. Rao is so, there is a great risk of being exposed.


    The MOH family is so smart. How could they find such a unique ghostwriter? Didn''t it break down at once?


    Guozi Jiansheng was soon embarrassed. They had never heard of such a unique small character. It was impossible to find such a ghostwriter!


    "It''s OK to write by Mohist himself!" Kong huisuo said gloomily. He still doesn''t believe that Mohist can practice his words overnight.


    "Merton, if it''s really your word, Benzi will testify for you. If you dare to cheat, even if your majesty protects you personally, you can''t stay in the Imperial College. Are you willing to write in person to prove your innocence?" Liu Yinian said ruthlessly. Anyway, he has severely offended the Mexican family. It''s better to take this opportunity to expel him from the son prison.


    Merton looked at the crowd coldly, showing a sneer and said, "students are willing to prove their innocence!"


    "OK, master, here are pens and paper. Now you write!" Liu Yinian said.


    Merton looked at the brush in Liu Yinian''s hand. The tip of the brush was straight and undisturbed. At first glance, it was a good Xuan pen. Merton shook his head and said, "master wouldn''t think this brush can write such a small font!"


    "Then you don''t take out your pen yet. I see what your pen looks like!" Liu Yinian said with some shame.


    In full view of the public, Merton returned to his position, took out a ceramic bottle, filled it with polished ink, and then took out his quill pen!


    "This is your ''brush''!" Mr. Liu stared at the goose feather in Merton''s hand.


    All the country''s son supervisors were stunned one by one!

 Chapter 42

    It was indeed a "hairy" pen, but it was a feather pen. The root was laughed into a sharp shape, and if there were no traces of ink, people would never have thought that this was the Mohist brush.


    "Yes, you can call him a quill pen, or you can call him a hard pen!" Merton said, unfolding the quill pen in his hand.


    People opened their eyes and couldn''t believe that a small goose feather could write such a beautiful font.


    "Hard pen!"


    Liu Yinian was thoughtful. If so, he could really explain why he wrote such a small font.


    Under the gaze of the crowd, Merton opened the cork of the ink bottle, dipped the ink gently, and wrote gently on the rice paper:


    "Geese, song Xiang sings to heaven.


    White hair floats in the green water, and red palm stirs clear waves. "


    "Chanting the goose" is Merton''s favorite poem in his previous life. It is the poem of King Luo Bing, a talented man in the early Tang Dynasty. At this moment, King Luo Bing has not been born. Merton is not ashamed to use it!


    There are not many words in the whole poem. Merton finished it at one go,.


    "Really can write!"


    "It''s as like as two peas in the schoolwork. It seems that it was written by Mohist."


    "How fast!" Qin Huaiyu''s eyes lit up. He was more concerned about the speed of writing, so he could have a lot of time to play.


    "The characters are so small and clear! And more paper is saved, and goose feather is cheaper." some students have invested all their money to bet that Merton lost. Now they have gone bankrupt. Brush and rice paper are old and expensive. How to save money is the king.


    "No, this is not a brush, not at all!" Xiong Maolin shouted loudly.


    "Why not? Yesterday, the master didn''t say that no matter what method or pen you use, you must write neat fonts on the paper. Isn''t this font neat?" Merton retorted.


    "Er, ER!" Xiong maocai suddenly lost his temper, and Liu Yinian also looked embarrassed. Yes, the most important thing in their calligraphy is to write well. As for what pen to write, it doesn''t seem to be the point!


    The other national supervisors were also depressed. It seems that there is no way to embarrass Merton on this.


    "The words are good, but the content is not satisfactory! How is Gebo Tianqing... What are these? It''s nonsense!" Wang Ling turned her eyes and said with a look of disgust.


    Just after that, he found that the people around him looked at him differently. Xiong maocai gently touched him and said, "it should be read from left to right!"


    "Geese, Qu Xiang... Xiang Tian... Song," Wang Ling''s difficult readers couldn''t help but change their faces. Mo Jiazi wrote another good poem.


    "Good poem!" a cheer came from outside the door. Kong Yingda, the Imperial College''s toast, came in with a look of admiration.


    "Wine worship Lord!" Liu Yinian quickly saluted.


    "Lord sacrifice!"


    All the prison students saluted one after another, and Merton bowed himself.


    As soon as Kong Yingda came in, he picked up Merton''s goose feather pen and was surprised. He looked at the words of Mohism. He couldn''t help exclaiming: "I didn''t expect that such a beautiful font could be written with such a simple feather." Kong Yingda praised.


    "I''m just going to report it to you, sacrificial wine Lord! I''ve never seen this kind of character before, and I doubt it''s a new font." Liu Yinian was well-informed and surprised when he saw this font.


    Kong Yingda nodded. As a calligrapher, he has studied a lot of fonts. He has never seen such fonts!


    "Impossible!" all the supervisors were shocked. A man with extremely ugly writing could create a new font overnight. It was a fantastic thing that happened in front of them.


    Xiong maocai was ashamed. He always boasted that he was better than mojiazi. In a twinkling of an eye, mojiazi became a master of calligraphy, and he was the clown.


    "Thin horizontally and thick vertically, with hook shaped pen end, it should be transformed from lettering!" Kong Yingda judged.


    "Wine worship is wise! When students were young, they were poor at home and couldn''t afford paper and pen. They often practiced in the sand table, and finally achieved a little success." Merton wrote in Song typeface, and its real source was engraving printing.


    "It''s a wonderful idea to use goose feather as a pen!" Kong Yingda exclaimed.


    "With crow feathers, peacock feathers are better, and goose feathers are cheaper!" said Merton.


    Goose feathers are discarded everywhere when they are slaughtered at ordinary times. The cost is extremely low. Of course, it can''t compare with the wolf hair and rabbit hair.


    Kong Yingda picked up the goose feather pen and wrote a few words. Although he was very green and not used to it, he was a man who had practiced calligraphy for decades. He could write good fonts with a little practice.


    "Fast and small! Save paper!" Kong Yingda looked at his writing with satisfaction, raised the nib, looked at the slightly yellow pen, compared Liu Yinian''s Langhao nib, picked up Langhao pen and wrote the same words. Even if he had tried his best to control it, he still wrote much larger and slower than the goose feather pen.


    "If it can be popularized, it will be the gospel of students all over the world," Kong Yingda said.


    "Don''t sacrifice wine, sir! If it is popular, it will cause great trouble!" Liu Yinian said in fear.


    "What trouble can a quill pen cause! Dr. Liu, don''t alarmist!" Kong Yingda shouted angrily.


    "How dare you talk nonsense? Please look at Merton''s poems, sacrificial Lord!" Liu Yinian said, pointing to Merton''s new chanting goose.


    "Geese, song Xiang Tiange..." Kong Yingda''s face became more gloomy as she read. The words Merton wrote were horizontal and read from left to right. The brush characters are written vertically, reading from right to left, which is completely opposite to the brush characters.


    If the quill pen is popularized, there will be two different writing methods on the market, which will indeed cause a lot of turbulence.


    "Why did Merton write like this!" Kong Yingda looked at Merton solemnly.


    "Please look, wine worship adult. If you write with a goose feather pen, gently press and hold your left hand and write with your right hand. Writing from left to right can avoid wet ink on your clothes. Wine worship adult can look at his sleeves!" Merton waved his sleeves clean.


    Kong Yingda raised his sleeve and looked at the little ink on it. He was a little relieved. At least the Mohist explanation reassured him. At this time, the characteristics of the goose feather pen were caused, which could not be aimed at brush calligraphy.


    "You see, Mr. sacrifice, if the two writing methods are mixed in society, what a mess it will be." Liu Yinian cried bitterly.


    "What the master said is indeed true!" Merton nodded in agreement with Liu Yinian, which made Kong Yingda a little strange.


    "But why do you want to write from top to bottom and from right to left?" Merton suddenly asked a question that caught everyone off guard.

 Chapter 43

    Yes! Why do we write that! They never thought of this problem. Everyone couldn''t help thinking.


    "Who knows why? Anyway, I''ve written like this since I was a child!" Wei Chi Baolin said a very frank word.


    "It''s because the top is the king, the parents; the bottom is the minister, and the children. The right is the big and the left is the small. We can also express unparalleled meaning when we write from right to left. At this time, the embodiment of our Confucian etiquette is not like other miscellaneous scholars who have no respect for their elders and don''t know their size." Kong huisuo said proudly and looked at Merton contemptuously.


    "Well said!" the other Guozijian students couldn''t help shouting.


    Liu Yinian looked at Kong huisuo with satisfaction and consciously raised his face. Kong Yingda also nodded slightly. This younger generation is really worth cultivating, talented and knowledgeable.


    "That''s good!" Merton applauded with a sneer. "But I heard that the brush was invented by Meng Tian, and the Meng family is a strategist! Are you sure Meng Tian thought of Confucian etiquette when he invented the brush!"


    Merton mercilessly peeled off the hypocritical face of Confucianism, which made the faces of all the country''s son prison students look embarrassed.


    Kong huisuo immediately blushed. Although he only wanted to put gold on the Confucian face, he ignored that Meng Tian, the inventor of the brush, was a strategist.


    Kong Yingda and Liu Yinian also looked embarrassed. This joke is not funny!


    "We don''t know, then you know!" Kong huisuo blushed and choked Merton.


    "Of course I know." Merton smiled and took out a book from his desk. Merton had long known that writing with a hard pen would cause some criticism. He had long thought of countermeasures and prepared his letters in advance.


    "Letters!"


    Everyone was confused. Only Kong Yingda and Liu Yinian were thoughtful.


    "Look, it''s easy to open the volume with your right hand. Therefore, ancient writing is from top to bottom, from right to left." Merton took the slip in his right hand, the first bamboo piece, slowly opened the bamboo slip in his left hand, and a blank bamboo slip appeared in front of everyone. Pick up the expensive Langhao pen in front of Liu Yinian and write down a few big and ugly words.


    Merton opened and closed the letter and demonstrated it to the public.


    "I see!" people suddenly realized that many people were lost. He thought that some tall brush writing rules were formed to adapt to the bamboo tube.


    "The writing of brush characters from top to bottom and from right to left is for the convenience of writing bamboo slips. Later, bamboo slips were gradually replaced by paper. Although bamboo slips disappeared, this writing method has been handed down.


    The quill pen can write small and fast in order to support the hand on the desktop. However, in order to avoid ink on the clothes and flower the font, we can only choose the writing method from right to left and from top to bottom! This has nothing to do with etiquette and belief, just for more convenient writing! "


    Merton said as he picked up his brush and put it on the table. He quickly wrote a line of words and directly demonstrated it to the public.


    "I see! Just for convenience!"


    Everyone understood it, just like in a dream. They didn''t want to believe that calligraphy, which is regarded as sacred, came from such a source, but the facts were put in front of them, but they had to be convincing.


    Kong huisuo''s face was defeated. Merton beat his face red with facts. How ridiculous it is to think of his previous arrogant words.


    "Even so, it should be banned, otherwise the mixed use of the two writing methods on the market will cause great confusion." Liu Yinian is still stubborn. What''s more terrible is that most Guozi supervisor students nod in agreement with this view.


    "Joke!" Merton said angrily: "The goose feather pen is cheap, convenient and fast to write, and saves paper. It can save at least 90% of the cost for poor students every year. You can complete your schoolwork in less than half the time and have more time to study. How many students in the whole Tang Dynasty can''t afford to buy Pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and how many people study hard with lights and candles. For fear of not enough time, you even want to prohibit it for your own sake , do you know how many poor children you have blocked from going to school? "


    Merton was as sharp as a sword word by word. Every word was cut in the hearts of everyone, which made many people ashamed. Many poor children couldn''t help crying. But they knew how much their family had paid for expensive pen, ink, paper and inkstone.


    "That can''t break the inheritance!" Liu Yinian said stubbornly.


    "Not to mention the quill pen, it saves money, ink and time. Let''s talk about labor saving."


    The goose feather pen from left to right is because people''s palms can be supported on the desktop and can support long-term writing, and the brush writing must be suspended in the arm. Long-term writing will be doubly tired. If you use it for a long time, I''m afraid it tastes bad! "


    Merton slapped Xiong maocai on the right shoulder and directly took Xiong maocai''s breath.


    "Old bear! Scapulohumeral periarthritis is very serious!" Merton grinned and said heartlessly.


    "How do you know?" Xiong maocai opened his eyes differently, but the disease has plagued him for a long time and can''t be solved.


    This is the best calligraphy. I must practice the most at ordinary times. Of course, your calligraphy is the most serious! Merton''s stomach and stomach.


    Those who can enter the Imperial College are not fools. Xiong maocai thought about it, woke up immediately, covered his shoulder and said, "you mean my shoulder periarthritis has been practicing calligraphy for a long time?"


    "Of course!" Merton also pulled an ancient article.


    As soon as this remark came out, many people involuntarily covered their right shoulder. There was only Xiong maocai. It was estimated that Qin Huaiyu and Qin Huaiyu had no shoulder periarthritis.


    "Fortunately, Lao ~ Zi didn''t write long, otherwise...!" Qin Huaiyu thought with lingering fear.


    Merton looked around and said slowly: "The quill pen saves time, effort, money and ink compared with the brush pen. It''s not forbidden. Just like paper replacing bamboo slips, it''s historical inevitability. It''s not etiquette, just because it''s convenient to save money! Do you want to prohibit the quill pen to protect the brush pen? Have you ever thought that after Cai Hou improved his papermaking skills, a great Confucian abolished paper in order to protect bamboo slips?"


    "Of course, we are not qualified to decide what pen others use. It all depends on our own choice. As for which one has the upper hand, it will be a hundred years later. It''s too early to argue now!"


    An argument ended here, and no one talked about the brush and goose feather pen anymore. The Imperial College tacitly accepted that Merton used the goose feather pen, and Merton was also interested in not publicizing the goose feather pen, as if this argument had never happened.


    Xiong maocai hides every time he sees Merton. Merton proves that he has six subjects to crush the Imperial College in an all-round way with the pioneering song style.


    Only after Merton''s quill pen was taken away by Kong Yingda for research, Merton had three less time to turn around.


    Needless to say, it must have been taken away by Qin Huaiyu''s three lazy guys. Merton smiled. At least it was a good start.

 Chapter 44

    Some people say that the reason why the world can make progress is driven by lazy people. Lazy people invented tools in order not to be tired and carriages in order not to walk. Only because of laziness can the world make progress.


    However, the three lazy people Qin Huaiyu were extremely unqualified. In less than a day, they returned the three bald goose feather pens to Merton.


    Chang''an Mo mansion.


    The three had no sense of being thieves at all, and stood in front of Merton.


    "It''s not easy to use at all!" said Wei Chi Baolin, pointing to a broken quill pen and shaking his head.


    "It''s bad if you don''t pay attention!" Chumo threw the bald goose pen in his hand in front of Merton.


    "What about yours?" Merton looked at his baby painfully, hoping that Qin Huaiyu would show mercy.


    "Well, I just want to know how he can write!"


    Qin Huaiyu awkwardly took out a goose feather pen divided into two halves!


    Merton was speechless and expected a few careless strong men to write with a fine quill pen. It was almost as difficult as letting them embroider.


    "By the way, have you got the store I asked you to buy?" Merton asked,


    "Don''t worry, let''s go? Don''t worry. We bought it yesterday. This is the land deed. It''s 8000 Liang. Even the shops and the big house behind are ours!" Qin Huaiyu took out a land deed from his arms and put it in front of Merton.


    "Opposite the Imperial College?" Merton raised his eyebrows and looked at the three unexpectedly.


    "Shouldn''t you three choose this place to eat and drink?"


    "Cough! Cough! How could it be!" Qin Huaiyu said awkwardly, "it''s not the area you asked for. It must be a good area. This area is the best one. Think about how many students in the Imperial College, and there are busy areas around. There are a lot of people. I used up my human feelings to get this good place, and the place is large enough."


    Merton thought carefully. The opposite side of the Imperial College is indeed a prosperous area, and there is a lot of traffic!


    Merton thought about it, nodded with satisfaction and said, "OK! Here it is! It can also solve the problem of three meals and save the pig food in the canteen!"


    "Ha ha, I''ll say it''s OK here!" Wei Chi Baolin laughed and said.


    Qin Huaiyu and Chumo stare at the fool in embarrassment. Even if they think so, they can''t say it! Don''t you hit yourself in the face!


    "The place has been selected. I don''t know what you said about the food business that can make a lot of money," Qin Huaiyu said.


    Merton looked at the three and knew their worries. After all, five thousand Liang is not a small amount. If they hit it, it would be enough for them to love for half a year.


    "You''ve come just in time. Today''s food experiment is successful. It''s cheaper for you!" Merton smiled.


    "That''s nice..." the three people immediately smiled when they heard of delicious food.


    In the kitchen of Mo mansion, the white steam is rolling, mixed with bursts of fragrance. Standing at the door, three people drool. The smell is delicious!


    "Young master, it''s ready!"


    Ziyi commanded Tie''an and Mo to come out with a huge steamer at one end, and a steaming steamed stuffed bun came out.


    "Isn''t this steamed cake?" Qin Huaiyu wanted to take a look curiously, but he was scalded by steam.


    "It''s much whiter than steamed bread, and it''s round." Chumo sees the difference. The yeast in this era is immature, the steamed bread turns yellow, and the white flour steamed bread remains in the legend.


    "It''s delicious. It must be delicious!" Wei Chi Baolin said with saliva.


    "This is not steamed bread, but steamed stuffed bun!" Merton took the chopsticks handed over by Ziyi, added one on the edge, blew a little breath and ate it.


    Steaming steamed stuffed buns are best to eat, and they are pork and green onions. Merton shows an expression of enjoyment. When he comes to Datang, he enjoys the familiar taste again.


    "Hoo! It''s delicious!" the three followed Merton''s example one after another.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The three are worthy of the title of the Imperial College bucket. A full cage of steamed stuffed buns was soon destroyed by the three.


    "Yes, it''s such a delicious thing. No wonder you say that the food of the Imperial College is pig food." Qin Huaiyu said contentedly touching his round stomach.


    "I''ll eat such delicious food every day in the future!" Chumo makes an important decision.


    "Why don''t you eat?" Wei Chi Baolin said, burping down his last bite of steamed stuffed bun and looking at Merton.


    "Because there''s more delicious food behind!" Merton smiled cunningly.


    "This is a small steamed bun!" Merton pointed to the steamer that was obviously smaller than the second one, and comfortably picked up a small steamed bun and ate it. Different fragrance filled the taste buds of the three people.


    "This is a soup bag!" Mo Wu''s thin body took out the smallest steamer.


    The three watched Merton enjoy the delicious food comfortably, and suffered because they couldn''t eat it.


    "What do you think of the food business?" Merton asked.


    "Unique, you can make a lot of money!" Qin Huaiyu said with satisfaction.


    "But once we launch it, others will follow suit. I don''t think the steamed stuffed bun is complicated!" Chumo is also optimistic about the business and sees the worries.


    "And if you sell more, you can make more money!" Wei Chi Baolin paid more attention to making money.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "first, our greatest advantage is our face. Our face is snow-white and delicious. This is the unique skill of my Mohist school, which other families don''t have!"


    "Second, this kind of steamer can be superimposed. At least ten steamed buns can be steamed at a time, which can not be imitated by other stores."


    In the kitchen, the thick steam had dissipated, revealing the tall steamers stacked inside. The three nodded with satisfaction. Mojiazi was really reliable and had already thought of countermeasures.


    "Third, this is just one of the food business. Then there are other food gradually launched!" Merton thought about the dazzling snacks in the future, and he was not worried about the food business.


    "There are others!" the three were pleasantly surprised. They thought that steamed stuffed buns alone were worth more than their value for money. They didn''t expect any surprises.


    "Of course, otherwise why should you buy such a big shop?" Merton nodded.


    "But these can only maintain our advantages for a while! We can make a lot of money in a short time, and these advantages will be caught up by other imitators in a long time!" Merton poured cold water on them.


    "What about that!" the three panicked. They wanted a long-term business, but they could only make fast money.


    "The only way is to establish a brand. We are the founders of steamed stuffed bun. Only ours is authentic and tastes the best. After making money, we immediately open a branch in Chang''an City, one in the most prosperous place of the west gate, the east gate and the south gate, and then one in each county of Chang''an city. Then we go to Luoyang and Kaifeng, so that the whole Datang has our points In this way, no one can threaten our position as long as we don''t mess up and smash our signboards. "


    The super pie painted by Merton was so heavy that Venus appeared in the eyes of three people.


    "The whole Tang Dynasty eats our steamed stuffed buns. What a big business it will be!" Wei Chi Baolin muttered to himself.


    "Then we must go to a domineering name and shock the Tang Dynasty!" Chumo said with pride.


    "Cough!" Morton said shyly, "I''ve already named Goubuli steamed stuffed bun!"


    "Dog ignored?" the three were stunned by thunder.

 Chapter 45

    early morning,


    The shops opposite the Imperial College are red flags, gongs and drums, and the Mohist steamed stuffed bun shop is officially opened!


    Qin Huaiyu and Merton were eager to make money, and Merton was also eager to find another way for the villagers of Mojia village. In less than three days, the skilled craftsman of Mojia village completed the decoration of the steamed stuffed bun shop.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three haven''t fought for the right to name. When the plaque of "Mohist Goubuli steamed stuffed bun" was hung high, Qin Huaiyu and the three hid in the shop in shame and ate steamed stuffed bun.


    "Three, is this turning shame into appetite?" Merton walked into the shop and looked at the lazy three with contempt.


    "Your name is so powerful! We can''t afford to lose this man!" Qin Huaiyu hesitated while chewing steamed stuffed bun.


    "In my opinion, it''s better to call it bumper grain." Chumo swallowed a small steamed bun and still suggested his good name.


    "Delicious soup dumplings are also good!" Wei Chi Baolin carefully sucked and slipped the soup dumplings. It''s hard to imagine that a seven foot man likes to eat the soup dumplings.


    "Whether the name is good or not depends on the effect!" Merton pointed to the passers-by, glancing at his plaque, at least attracting people''s attention, and then he succeeded a small step.


    In addition, Merton also specifically allowed to try. After some curious people tried, they couldn''t help shouting delicious food and went into the store for consumption. After a while, the huge steamed stuffed bun store was already overcrowded.


    Four teenagers were squeezed out of the store, each holding two steamed stuffed buns. Looking at the overcrowded store, they couldn''t help smiling. It seems that the business can''t compensate this time.


    "But it seems that those state children''s prison students don''t accept your love. Now it seems that none of them accept your love." Qin Huaiyu swallowed the last steamed stuffed bun in his hand and said faintly.


    Outside the gate, facing the gate of the National Academy of Sciences, "half price for supervised students and free for doctors," the eight large black characters attract people''s attention. And every Guozi supervisor passed by the door of the store, one by one without squinting or looking at the four.


    "After all, the money for opening the shop comes from them, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation for them. If we can come, we can come or not. At least we have done our best!" Merton said indifferently.


    "The doctor is really free!" a sudden voice sounded behind the four people. The familiar voice made the four people shiver.


    The four people turned their heads rigidly and saw Kong Yingda smiling at the four of them!


    "Of course! Of course!" the four nodded.


    "Is the sacrifice free?"


    "Of course, not only the sacrifice, but also the master book, recording and doctoral study are free!" Merton replied without mentioning.


    Of course, Kong Yingda didn''t come to dinner. Under the leadership of Merton, he visited the shop and the back kitchen. Finally, he tasted the big steamed stuffed bun, small steamed stuffed bun and soup stuffed bun.


    "Yes, it''s really delicious. In contrast, the canteen of the Imperial College is really pig food!" Kong Yingda said with a smile.


    Merton was embarrassed!


    "It''s student Meng Lang!"


    "It''s clean, hygienic, neat, delicious, and the signs are very characteristic," Kong Yingda commented one by one.


    The four people looked at Kong Yingda, who left after commenting, and looked at each other.


    "Why did you come?" Chumo wondered.


    "The wine offering is well intentioned!" Murton sighed.


    In the Imperial College, Kong Yingda looked at Kong huisuo, the silent younger generation around him, shook his head and said, "you don''t understand why I went to the steamed stuffed bun store?"


    "Please make it clear, uncle!" Kong huisuo also looked puzzled. He didn''t understand why his uncle, as the sacrificial wine of the Imperial Academy, should go to support the opening of the Mohist shop.


    "You lost a lot in the last bet!" Kong Yingda didn''t directly answer Kong huisuo''s question, but asked a seemingly irrelevant thing.


    "One hundred Liang!" Kong huisuo said in shame.


    "Well! You lost one hundred Liang, but it doesn''t matter. It doesn''t have any impact on us! But others only lost four or two or five Liang, and they have all their wealth. I heard that some students can''t afford to eat and can''t afford pen, ink, paper and inkstone." Kong Yingda sighed.


    "I know those people. We are going to fund them!" Kong huisuo said.


    "No! The students in the Imperial College don''t need handouts from others!" Kong Yingda flatly refused.


    "That uncle went to mojiazi''s steamed stuffed bun shop today just to make those students face up and buy steamed stuffed buns!" Kong huisuo suddenly realized.


    "Yes! Although they have no money, they can''t face the Mexican family."


    "But isn''t the half price of Mohist school also a charity?" Kong huisuo didn''t understand.


    "It''s different. It''s clearly priced, voluntary trading, and there''s their own lost money. They feel at ease when they eat," Kong Yingda explained.


    "Uncle, it''s really hard work!" Kong huisuo said sincerely.


    "Uncle, please help yourself. My nephew didn''t eat in the morning. He''s going to buy some steamed stuffed buns!"


    Kong Yingda looked at his nephew who had run away without a trace. At least he was enlightened.


    "Give me twelve big steamed stuffed buns!" Kong huisuo put three Wen in front of Merton. The price of steamed stuffed buns is two for one Wen, and the price of Guozi supervisor is half, that is four for one Wen.


    "Twelve? Have you finished?" Merton looked at Kong huisuo''s thin body and doubted.


    "I''ll eat if I can''t finish it! I lost you a hundred Liang. How can I eat it back!" Kong huisuo said gnashing his teeth.


    The twelve big steamed stuffed buns were wrapped in paper bags. Kong huisuoti took them in his hand and returned to the school of Guozi supervisor.


    "It''s delicious!" many students couldn''t help swallowing their saliva. They lost the cost of living for two months. Now a meal every day is also tight. They are really hungry. They drink some water in a big gulp, and their chest is close to their back.


    Kong huisuo gulped and couldn''t help admiring. The taste was really good.


    "You went to buy Mohist steamed stuffed buns!" Wang Ling looked at Kong huisuo in disbelief.


    Besides him, Kong huisuo must be in the top three. How can he go back and buy Mohist steamed stuffed buns?


    "Mojiazi and Qin Huaiyu have opened a shop, but there are one hundred liang of mine in it. How can old ~ Zi eat it back!" Kong huisuo took a big bite of steamed stuffed bun and said confidently.


    "Er, ER!" the crowd was stunned, and this explanation seems to work!


    "By the way, I bought a lot. I''ll try it for you too. It can''t be cheap, mojiazi!" Kong huisuo thrust the steamed stuffed bun in the paper bag to some students.


    These students hesitated for a while, but looking at Kong huisuo''s big bite, they couldn''t help but bite. Suddenly, the delicious food they had never realized was full of their taste buds.


    "It''s delicious!"


    A steamed stuffed bun has been eaten for a long time, but it is still not enough. I have been hungry for several days.


    "Touch!" Xiong maocai slapped the table and stood up: "Lao ~ Zi lost fifty Liang. How can he eat it back!"


    "Yes, I lost thirty Liang!"


    "I''m twelve!"


    "I''m five Liang!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One by one, the national son supervisor rushed to the Goubuli steamed stuffed bun store, took out a penny, took four steaming steamed stuffed buns, looked at Merton coldly, and left with a hum.


    "Come on! We''ve been good people, but we''re not good!" Qin Huaiyu said with a bitter smile.


    "At least, we are comfortable with the money!" Merton breathed a sigh of relief, and the big stone in his heart finally fell.

 Chapter 46

    It turns out that monopoly is the most profitable business,


    The delicious food of steamed stuffed bun, Merton nodded and said, "what if the seal is as big as rice paper?"


    "But where can we find such a big jade?" Qin Huaiyu frowned.


    "How heavy it should be!" Chumo said with a disdainful face.


    "Three young masters, there''s no need to use jade. It''s the same with wood. Moreover, the wood is very light and easy to carve. It won''t delay the three young masters'' schoolwork," Mo San said.


    "That''s good." the three eyes lit up and looked at Mo San like a treasure.


    There was no shortage of wood in Mo''s house. Mo San found the hard jujube wood and cut three boards according to the size of rice paper.


    "Please write down your name!" Mo San said to Qin Huaiyu after finishing these.


    "Brush!" Qin Huaiyu waved his pen and wrote down his name.


    Mo San picked up the carving knife, faced a leftover material and Qin Huaiyu''s font, and carved it by dividing three by five.


    With a touch of ink, Qin Huaiyu clearly appeared on the rice paper.


    "OK, that''s it!"


    Qin Huaiyu looked as like as two peas in the same font as he wrote.


    "Morton, you''re still smart! This time, everyone will accept your love!" Chumo patted Morton on''s shoulder heavily.


    Wei Chi Baolin also laughed happily. The three looked at each other and laughed like a weasel stealing a chicken.

 Chapter 47

    "I''m back!" Ziyi jumped out of the carriage without waiting for the carriage to stop. She couldn''t be happy.


    Merton was not in such a good mood. He pressed down his nausea and stepped on the ground of Mojia village, which was a little more comfortable.


    The carriages of this era have no shock absorption, no tires, and the official road is uneven and bumpy.


    "This carriage is really bumpy?" fuber also helped himself down slowly. As for tie an, he was heartless and had nothing to do.


    "The young master is back!" Li Yi, who got the news, rushed over at the first time.


    "Uncle Li!"


    After getting off the ground, Merton no longer wanted to be in the carriage, but did it. Accompanied by Li Yi, he walked slowly to the villa!


    When he returned to Mojia village again, Merton found that Mojia village had changed greatly. The whole Mojia village had become a construction site and was busy everywhere.


    "We''re going to build more houses this year. After all, there are too many young people in the village who are engaged to marry. It''s funny that they don''t live in a new house when they can get married!" Li Yi said, pointing to a large construction site.


    After the first month, the weather is getting warmer and warmer. It''s a good time to start building houses. Merton came close and looked at it. Good guy, he laid the foundation of ten houses at one time!


    "Hmm!" Merton nodded. "Giving priority to the engaged villagers is the key to solving the single problem. At the same time, we should also take care of some villagers with dangerous houses in the village."


    Li Yi nodded: "don''t worry, young master! I''m watching these things."


    Merton forwarded it a little, found that the Mohist village was progressing smoothly, and returned to the Mohist house.


    After sitting down a little, Merton talked about the recruitment of steamed stuffed bun shop!


    "Recruit?" Li Yi was shocked when he heard that the young master had opened another steamed stuffed bun shop in just ten days.


    "Not one, but three more are about to open!" Ziyi added.


    "But soon spring ploughing will be coming, and the strong boys in the village will be ploughing. There is also the construction of fish Wharf in shibie lake. Lao Zhang tou has been expanding his manpower, and the escort team in the village is also recruiting people." Li Yi frowned and said that Mojia village is still dominated by agriculture. Spring ploughing needs a lot of manpower, and Mojia village is under construction, There is also a shortage of manpower.


    "No one?" Morton frowned.


    "Now there are only women left in the village, old and weak!" Li Yi said.


    "Women can do it too! Women are better at steamed stuffed bun shops," Morton said with a bright eye.


    "Young master! That''s not good!" Li Yi hurriedly stopped. "There''s no woman who shows up. That''s not to be criticized!"


    Fuber nodded in agreement. He also thought Merton''s proposal was too bold!


    "We are Mohists. Why should we learn the rules of Confucianism?" Merton retorted.


    "I''m afraid the women in the village don''t agree. Not necessarily anyone wants to!" Li Yi frowned. Now it''s the same in the whole Tang Dynasty. Unless it''s a widow, not many women appear in public and provoke criticism.


    "It''s easy to solve this problem. Go and tell the women in the village that they are in the back kitchen. No one usually goes to the steamed stuffed bun shop, and there are three national princes and young masters. No one dares to make trouble, and the salary is no less than that of men." Merton promised.


    "The salary is no less than men?" Li Yi couldn''t believe it.


    "Don''t worry, brother Li. You don''t know how good the steamed stuffed bun shop is now, and there are three stores about to open, which is a great source of wealth in Mojia village!" Fubo patted Li Yi and agreed with him with a smile, so that these women''s worries will be eliminated.


    With Fubo''s guarantee, Li Yi believed that the steamed stuffed bun shop had great prospects and could make use of the women in Mojia village, which simply added more than half of the labor force out of thin air.


    "If there is so much money, someone should be willing to go." Li Yi nodded.


    Merton nodded. It was his idea to recruit female workers. More and more people from Mojia village work in Chang''an city. For a long time, the left behind in Mojia village are women and children. There will be trouble for a long time, and they can take their family members with them. If they work at the same time, the family will soon become rich. This is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.


    "That''s great! Now the biggest source of wealth of Mojia village is the live fish business, and the secret recipe of live fish will be announced soon, so we have lost the most important source of wealth. Now the young master has opened a steamed stuffed bun shop, which can be regarded as a solution to his urgent need. Fubo said with a sigh of relief.


    He is now in charge of the finance of Mojia village, and the expenses of 5000 people are on him, which can be described as a heavy pressure.


    "Don''t worry, Fubo, even if you lose your secret skills of live fish, the live fish business in Mojia village will not fail. At most, it will be impacted." Merton comforted.


    "Don''t worry, brother Fu! The artificial fish culture in shibie lake is very smooth, and there will be a lot of profits at that time. Moreover, it is planned to reclaim 500 mu of land this year. At that time, as long as God doesn''t have a natural disaster again, the crisis of Mojia village will be over!" Li Yi promised.


    Fubo was relieved. Compared with last year''s situation, Mojia village is now the richest time in recent 20 years. There is nearly a year''s grain storage in the village and various industries outside. Mojia village has gradually come to terms with the appearance of poverty.


    Merton really underestimated the power of wages. When Li Yi announced that Chang''an steamed stuffed bun shop recruited women workers, and the wages were no less than that of men in Mojia village, the women in Mojia village immediately caused a sensation!


    "I''m going!" Guo Xiaomei was the first to sign up! Li Xin often runs in Mojia village and Chang''an city. She thought she had said that Chang''an city is prosperous. She has long yearned for it. Moreover, Li Xin often runs on both sides and is not afraid to meet.


    With the first to take the lead, other women also responded one after another. Some are family members of the fish shop, some are in urgent need of money at home, and some are yearning for life in Chang''an city.


    After a while, 200 people signed up!


    "Please don''t worry, put it on record here, give priority to young and capable people, and don''t lose heart for the rest. There are still many opportunities in the future."


    In the end, Li Yi added screening conditions and still couldn''t stop his enthusiasm for registration.


    "Young master! There are fifty more people!" said Li Yi with a sad face. Even if the unqualified ones have been screened out, there are still many suitable candidates.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "if you are all admitted, you should train talents. In the future, the food business will continue to expand. There will be no candidates at that time!"


    Merton''s food plan is not just a kind of steamed stuffed bun. In the future, he will add food one by one. At that time, it will form a beautiful Mohist city. At that time, more manpower is needed. It is uncertain that the female workers in Mohist village are not enough!

 Chapter 48

    "Mojia village is about to announce the secret recipe for live fish."


    The news spread all over Chang''an City, from the south to the north, from inside to outside. In less than half a day, the whole Chang''an city immediately caused a sensation.


    "So fast! It''s impossible?" someone doubted.


    What is the secret skill of living fish? It''s a peerless secret. It has fed more than 5000 people in Mojia village. Coupled with the bonus of Mozi''s trustworthiness for thousands of years, it can be said to be precious and can''t be more precious.


    "I don''t believe it either! That''s the most valuable thing in Mojia village. If I were Mojia Zi, I would definitely stay one more day. Just stay one more day. Although it can''t reach the daily gold, at least one gold every day is sure!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many people don''t believe this rumor, because no one will take the initiative to spit out the fat in their mouth.


    With the passage of time, when the news was confirmed to be true, Chang''an city was in an uproar.


    "It''s true. Several fish shops in Mojia village have been transferred, leaving only a few fish shops in the big market."


    "I personally asked the man in Mojia village. The news is true!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The secret of live fish is really going to be announced! After the news is confirmed, the most excited fish traders are large and small. Now Mojia village almost monopolizes the live fish business in Chang''an City, squeezing their living space. If the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village can be announced, we are not on the same starting line.


    "Ha ha, this is a waste of martial arts in the Mojia village!" shopkeeper Wang of the Wangjia fish shop is ecstatic. Years ago, the Mojia village lost money by suppressing the Wangjia fish shop with the secret skills of live fish. Now if he can get the secret skills of live fish, how can he be afraid of the Mojia village?


    "I will take back the things belonging to Wang''s fish shop bit by bit!" shopkeeper Wang is full of confidence.


    "Mojia village is really a believer!" someone praised.


    The people who heard nodded silently. Although they did not appreciate the behavior of Mojia village, they had to admire the reputation of Mojia village.


    "This time we seem to have lost some advantages, but we have established our reputation and established our own brand!" Merton explained to the fish master.


    "I understand what the young master means, but once the secret skills of live fish are announced, the live fish business of Mojia village will be impacted, and it will affect the construction of the village at that time!" the fish Master said anxiously.


    "Uncle Yu, don''t worry, buying and selling live fish has only been affected. Compared with the brand we have established, this loss is not worth mentioning. There will be new financial resources in Mojia village. Uncle Zhang will decorate your restaurant soon." Merton''s eyes flashed a glimmer of expectation.


    Lao Zhang swallowed the delicious steamed stuffed bun with a satisfied expression on his face. He looked at the steamed stuffed bun shop in front of him and the big house with nearly two acres behind him!, The heart said: "I didn''t expect that the young master should get such a big family business in Chang''an city!"


    The shop bought by Qin Huaiyu 8000 Guan is just at the intersection of two roads and covers a huge area. Now, only three shops are used as Goubuli steamed stuffed bun stores, and the remaining stores and the back house are not used. Instead, they have been renovated all the time. Even if the manpower in Mojia village is tight, Merton has not stopped work here, Among them is the restaurant Merton promised to fish master.


    "Uncle Zhang! What do you think of this rockery?" a young man from Mojia village came to ask for instructions.


    "Flatten, flatten all. This place is of great use to young masters. The secret skills of live fish will be displayed here." Lao Zhang waved his head and said with a big hand.


    Brother Yu, don''t worry. I can''t delay your important affairs. I''m sure you''ll be surprised at that time. To tell the truth, when I saw the drawing given by the young master for the first time, I was surprised. It was the only one in Chang''an city. Lao Zhang said proudly.


    "That''s nice." Master Yu smiled and couldn''t close his mouth. Looking at the three-story building next to him, he couldn''t help looking forward to it.


    As things spread, new consumer information came out every day. Soon, the place where the secret recipe for live fish was announced in Mojia village also spread, just opposite the Imperial College.


    "Er, the Mohist school really dares to choose a place and even dare to fight against Confucianism." some people don''t think it''s too big to watch the excitement.


    "This is the rhythm of death for the Mohist school! He is still studying in the Imperial College and dares to be so bold."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Merton, you cow, dare to work against the Imperial College?" Qin Huaiyu gave a thumbs up to Merton with a bad smile.


    "Get out! If you hadn''t bought the land for greed, how could I choose to fight against the Imperial College!" Merton said angrily.


    Merton doesn''t want to hold it here, but Mojia village is short of funds. It''s better to save it in the province!


    "Hypocrisy! I think you''re a donkey on a slope. If you hadn''t wanted to do so, how could you start preparing the back house from the beginning!" Qin Huaiyu despised.


    He bought this house. Merton''s actions here can''t hide from him!


    Merton shook his head and said, "the reputation of Mojia village is too low. It''s estimated that there won''t be many people at that time. If the Imperial College didn''t rub some popularity, it might not be able to drive!"


    "Now you''re driving, and it''s on fire!" Wei Chi Baolin said from the outside. "The whole Imperial College is on fire. Now the master is gnashing his teeth to find you?"


    "Er, ER!" Morton looked stunned and said to Qin Huaiyu, "didn''t I ask you to take a holiday for me?"


    Qin Huaiyu said awkwardly, "the Imperial College was excited. I didn''t dare to hand it over. I put it directly on the table of the sacrificial Lord and left."


    Merton looked at the counsellor with a disdainful face. He usually boasted how powerful he was. He counselled when he met something.


    "Where''s Mo San?" Qin Huaiyu asked.


    "He''s out! What''s the matter?" said Merton.


    "Hey, hey, don''t you want to thank him? His unique skill has helped the brother a lot?" Qin Huaiyu said with a flying face.


    "Oh! Mr. Liu has no doubt?" Merton said in surprise.


    Print and writing are certainly different, because print has no brush edge.


    "As like as two peas in a book," Qin Huaiyu said with a lingering fear. "He also took the contrast of my previous lessons and found that the handwriting was the same."


    "But at least I passed the test!" Wei Chi Baolin said with a smile.


    "Be careful!" Mr. Liu already suspects you. Don''t let them catch the handle! " Merton warned.


    "What are you afraid of? This is our font again. As long as you don''t grasp the current situation, I will admit that I wrote it myself." Qin Huaiyu said indifferently.


    For these generals, writing with a pen is the biggest punishment for them. Now with the artifact of printing, they can solve the pain of writing their schoolwork for them. There is no need to consider anything else.

 Chapter 49

    "Where''s Chumo?" Morton looked around and found that there was one person missing from the iron triangle.


    Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "I don''t know. This guy sent someone to say something today. He arrived late, but he hasn''t come yet!"


    Merton thought for a while and there was nothing to worry about. This guy walked across Chang''an City and nothing would happen.


    At this time, Fu Bo suddenly knocked on the door and said respectfully, "young master, a young man outside said he was your classmate in the Imperial College. I heard you were ill and came to see you?"


    "Guozijian classmate?" Merton and Qin Huaiyu looked at each other. You should know that Merton''s reputation in Guozijian is not good. Usually, Guozijian students are indifferent to Merton. Some people are overjoyed when they hear that he is ill. He believed that how could someone come to visit him,


    "Chumo is here!" Yuchi Baolin hesitated.


    "How could it be? Chumo always rushes into the door and expects him to be polite, hum!" Qin Huaiyu despises.


    "Who is it? You can see at a glance that since people come to the door, it''s not bad. Fuber brought him here!" said Merton.


    Fuber took orders and went away. Soon he led a young man in.


    "Zu Mingjun!" Merton was surprised. I didn''t expect him to come. You know, usually they don''t have an intersection. The only intersection is the competition on the day when Merton first entered the Imperial College.


    "I heard brother Mo was ill, so I came to see him today." Zu Mingjun was polite and considerate, with some gifts in his hand.


    "You''re welcome, brother Zu. We''re all classmates. We don''t have so many etiquette. Please come in!" Merton quickly called Zu Mingjun in! He also knows that although the ancestral family is famous, its main achievements are in mathematics. He has never been a senior official, and his family is not rich.


    "Zu abacus, it''s you?" Qin Huaiyu said coldly when he saw Zu Mingjun. Because Zu Mingjun''s abacus played well, he had a nickname called Zu abacus.


    "Guozijian, what''s wrong with me?"


    Zu Mingjun and Qin Huaiyu obviously don''t deal with it. They have had a holiday for a long time.


    "Well, well, everyone is a classmate. Don''t be so stiff?" Merton advised.


    "Merton, you don''t know how hateful he is. He was next to me in the exam last year. I wanted to take a look at his answer, but he refused. I was beaten five boards by master Shen!" Qin Huaiyu said bitterly.


    "That''s your own stupidity. Those questions are extremely simple." Zu Mingjun retorted.


    "You''re powerful. You''re powerful. You haven''t lost to Merton in one round!"


    "Uh, uh!..."


    Zu Mingjun blushed with choking. He really failed miserably at that time.


    "I''m not as good as brother Mo, I admit. In fact, another purpose of coming today is to continue to ask brother Mo for advice on arithmetic." Zu Mingjun bowed to Merton.


    "Brother Zu, you''re welcome. The ancestral conjugation is famous all over the world. Merton has studied for a long time and learned from each other?" Merton also respects learned people. Conjugation is one of the textbooks that the Imperial College must learn. After reading it, Merton is also an eye opener and can no longer underestimate the wisdom of the ancients.


    "Brother Mo, you''re welcome. Conjugation is only one of the ten books of Sutra. Where can it be called all over the world?"


    "You''re welcome. Let''s take the PI as an example. Our ancestors'' extreme circle cutting method is the first in the world. It is the first in the world to calculate the PI to 3.1415926."


    "When it comes to PI, according to the ancestors at home, the ancestors still got inspiration from the Mojing, and they have to thank the Mojia?" Zu Mingjun praised Mozi after holding the ancestors.


    "Flatter each other!" Qin Huaiyu said contemptuously.


    Merton and zumingjun couldn''t help laughing, and their relationship became closer in an instant.


    "It''s really a shame that Mingjun didn''t learn 10% of his ancestors'' arithmetic. Today, I take this opportunity to ask brother Mo for advice." Zu Mingjun officially said.


    Merton was about to answer when a voice came from outside.


    "That feeling is good. I happen to bring a person who sincerely asks for advice on mathematics!"


    Chumo enters the hall impolitely, followed by a slender, gentle young man. The only disadvantage is that his legs are a little inconvenient when walking.


    "I''m Li Gaoming! I like arithmetic very much. I heard that brother Mo''s arithmetic is unique. I have the courage to ask Chumo to introduce me!" Li Gaoming''s behavior is very comfortable.


    "This is my friend from Jinyang, who is also behind the door? We will take care of each other in the future." Chumo briefly introduced him.


    "How are you feeling? Chumo''s friends are my friends. They don''t have so many rules in the Mo mansion. Everyone here is brothers." Merton warmly welcomed him.


    After some consultation, Merton was surprised to find that Li Gaoming was indeed very accomplished in mathematics. Obviously, after hard study, even Zu Mingjun looked at Li Gaoming differently.


    The more they talked, the more they speculated. Li Gaoming and Zu Mingjun had an intuitive understanding of Merton''s mathematical level. It was simply unfathomable! Merton can solve his own problems by thinking a little, while Merton can''t solve any problem.


    "Please don''t hesitate to give me your advice!" Zu Mingjun said sincerely.


    Li Gaoming nodded again and again. He found that among the three, his level of arithmetic was the lowest, but he could also keep up with Zu Mingjun, but if compared with Merton, there would be no comparability at all.


    "The master is a teacher? Gao Ming also wants to consult brother Mo''s talents!"


    Merton thought for a moment, why: "you two want to learn, of course, but, just..."


    "Just what? Don''t worry about haw, Merton. As long as there is any difficulty, brothers will help you solve it." Chumo said bluntly.


    "Please speak clearly, brother Mo! If it involves the secrets of Mohism, let''s not say it?" said Zu Mingjun.


    He knows that Mohism abides by the rules most. Mozi is to keep his word and pass on the secret skills of living fish for thousands of years. I''m afraid Merton''s tall and deep mathematics is also the secret of Mohism! With harsh conditions.


    "No! You misunderstood! Mohism does not have such narrow ideas, but my arithmetic is not the same as yours. If you two want to learn, I''m afraid you''ll have to start from scratch, just like enlightening children," said Merton.


    "That can work out the problem of disaster victims caused by brother Mo!" Li Gaoming asked.


    "Of course, that''s just a problem that can be calculated when he was a child?" Merton casually opened the river. He almost didn''t collapse when he was in primary school.


    "OK, I''ve learned!" Zu Mingjun affirmed. His family has been fighting for arithmetic for generations. Now that they have knowledge beyond the family, of course they won''t give up.


    "I came down here to learn profound knowledge. How can I return empty handed like a treasure mountain?" Li Gaoming said.


    "I want to learn too?" Qin Huaiyu said suddenly.


    "What are you doing?" Merton looked at the three angrily.


    "Didn''t you say to start from scratch? Aren''t we better than children?" Qin Huaiyu said discontentedly.


    "Hmm!" Merton nodded heavily.


    Suddenly everyone burst into laughter.

 Chapter 50

    "What are the uses of mathematics?"


    Mr. Mo was a little nervous when he had his first class. Fortunately, they were all acquaintances except Li Gaoming, which made him relax a lot.


    "For the exam?" Chumo raises his hand and says a wise saying.


    "Er, ER!" Merton said nothing.


    "Settle accounts!" Zu Mingjun proposed a practical use.


    "Accounting is really a great use of mathematics," Merton nodded.


    "However, the use of mathematics is more than that. After learning mathematics, generals can calculate the speed of the army, the time of the battlefield, the food and grass needed, and even all kinds of situations of the enemy. How can such a general not win the war.


    Those who do this can calculate the taxes and expenses of the state. They can also crack down on corrupt officials by checking accounts and govern the country reasonably. Ordinary people can calculate accounts and record family expenses. Even street vendors have to learn arithmetic without a teacher. Arithmetic runs through everyone. "


    "We are dealing with arithmetic all the time. Arithmetic is very important. I like arithmetic more than any subject! Today I want to call you not only arithmetic, but the spirit of arithmetic.


    In mathematics, every number is fixed, and no change is allowed. One plus one equals two, not three, not any number. Mathematics is such a cold number. It tells you the naked truth. You can''t believe anyone or anything in the world, but please believe in mathematics. Anyone in this world can cheat You, but only arithmetic can''t. when you learn arithmetic, you control the right to insight into the truth. "


    Merton''s words made everyone think, especially Li Gaoming, whose eyes were shining,.


    Even Qin Huaiyu, who was going to make soy sauce, couldn''t help sitting up straight and listening carefully.


    "Mohist''s arithmetic is different from the ten classics of arithmetic you usually learn! The basis of everything is these ten numbers, zero one two three four five six seven eight nine, these ten numbers."


    Merton took a charcoal pencil cut from charcoal and wrote the ten numbers on a board.


    Looking at the black ash in his hand, Merton secretly determined to get the chalk out quickly. After all, the process is very simple.


    "We''ve all learned this!" Wei Chi Baolin wondered.


    "Really?" Merton smiled. "What about these ten numbers?"


    Merton wrote under the blackboard: "0123456789."


    "This is also a number? It can''t be a ghost symbol!" everyone was confused by the crooked Arabic numerals.


    "Merton, you won''t learn witchcraft! It''s a ghost amulet!" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    "It''s a number, but it''s a number from India?" Li Gaoming said suddenly.


    Merton took an unexpected look at Li Gaoming. Unexpectedly, he knew that these numbers were indeed Tianzhu numbers. However, they were later spread around the world by Arab businessmen before they were honored as Arab numbers.


    "This is indeed the figure of Tianzhu. Brother Gao Ming is so knowledgeable. This is the essence of mathematics learned by Mohists who have gone to Tianzhu for thousands of years!" Merton shamelessly put gold on Mohists'' face.


    Merton then wrote several groups of numbers in Chinese characters on the blackboard, and wrote the meaning of representation in numbers. All the five present have a certain mathematical foundation and can easily understand it.


    I don''t know. Arabic numerals have obvious advantages in large-scale computing, and they are easy to learn and clear at a glance.


    "It''s too convenient?" Qin Huaiyu was very interested. If arithmetic were like this, he would have learned it long ago.


    "The Mohist ancestors are really admirable. I heard that an eminent monk named Xuan Zang made a great wish a few years ago to go to Tianzhu to ask for the Scriptures. I didn''t expect that the Mohist ancestors had already asked for the scriptures of mathematics from Tianzhu." Zu Mingjun was surprised.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Merton was a little blushing no matter how thick skinned he was. He hesitated and acquiesced. He said sorry to Xuanzang in his heart and shared the aura of your Westward Journey to learn scriptures.


    Merton simply taught five people addition and subtraction? It makes five people exclaim constantly. Compared with the calculation in the Sutra, it is simply too convenient.


    Zu Mingjun is infatuated with calculation.


    "That''s all for today''s class." Merton breathed a sigh of relief and interrupted the five people''s reluctant practice to end today''s class.


    Several people reluctantly put down their quill pen. They found that writing Tianzhu numbers with quill pen is much simpler and faster. They can''t write well with quill pen. They have changed to quill pen one after another, which is the first expansion of quill pen!


    "Brother Mo has a broad mind. I''m very grateful for giving you the secrets of Mohist arithmetic." Li Gaoming sincerely admires him.


    Zu Mingjun also thanked him. In contrast, the Mohist School''s arithmetic is much better than that handed down by his ancestors. Just a Tianzhu number has made Zu Mingjun unable to compete.


    "No, no!" Morton said modestly.


    After all, the six were teenagers. They didn''t have so many rules. They soon became one and had a good time.


    Unconsciously, it was time for dinner. Merton said to leave Zu Mingjun and Li Gaoming for dinner. As for Qin Huaiyu, they are evil guests who can''t be driven away.


    "That''s disrespectful! I''ve heard that brother Mo invented steamed stuffed buns. The food of Mohism must be unique." Li Gaoming said calmly.


    "Then you''ll have a blessing in the mouth. My uncle Yu arrived today. He''s a great fish maker. It''s said that even his majesty praised his cooking in the army." Merton said.


    "Oh! Then we''ll have a good taste," Li Gaoming said with a smile.


    Since Li Gaoming had promised to stay, Zu Mingjun was not modest and stayed.


    "Here comes the fish!" the fish master took the prepared fish to the table, a pickled fish, a braised fish, a steamed fish, and several small dishes. In front of each person, there was a bowl of delicious rice, but three of them were huge, which was obviously reserved for Qin Huaiyu.


    "Take your time, young masters!"


    After Master Yu left, Merton pulled a backrest chair specially made for him by Lao Zhang tou and asked several people to sit down. The table is still a unique round table in Mojia village, regardless of primary and secondary positions.


    "This table and chair is also unique!" Li Gaoming looked at the round table and leaned back against the chair. He found that the chair could just hold his waist, which was very comfortable.


    "Mohism has no rules. How can you be comfortable?" Merton was very uncomfortable with the habit of kneeling and eating in the Tang Dynasty. He had no way outside. In the Mohist house, he changed all tables and chairs. Anyway, he didn''t seem very strange under the pretext of Mohism.


    As the master, Merton was the first to move his chopsticks, pick up a piece of fish and start.

 Chapter 51

    "Delicious!"


    Zumingjun clip "Oh! It''s very convenient?" Li Gaoming said with a bright eye.


    "Soon, too! It''s estimated that so many advertising lists will be printed in an hour. If you write them by hand, hehe?" Chumo said, proudly showing off that he finished his homework in a quarter of an hour with printing.


    "Such good things that benefit the country and the people, one of you is used to cheat and the other is used to print advertisements?" Li Gaoming said angrily.


    "Benefit the country and the people?" Chumo is confused.


    "You know how many students in the world want a book but can''t. If you want to have a book, you must copy it by hand. With such fast printing, how many books can be printed! Isn''t this the greatest gospel for students in the world!" Li Gaoming said excitedly.


    Merton accidentally saw Li Gaoming. He didn''t expect that he had such insight. Originally, he intended to make money by printing books, but he was a child of the Mohist school. Printing some Confucian classics was probably controversial, so he gave up.


    "The pearl is covered with dust."


    Li Gaoming looked at the advertisement in his hand with heartache. However, they can''t escape the fate of advertising by eating people''s soft mouth. However, they also put forward conditions to experience the dialogue across the city wall first.


    "Take a look! The Millennium secret technique of the Mohist School of living fish will be announced soon. Welcome to watch." Merton waved the leaflet in his hand and sent it to passers-by.


    "The secret skill of living fish, a magical boy."


    "All these miraculous performances are in the Mohist ink technology exhibition! Welcome to the address opposite the Imperial College in five days."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Leaflets were handed out to passers-by, and soon the Mohist School''s upcoming ink technology exhibition spread all over Chang''an city.

 Chapter 52

    After all, ink technology exhibition is the top priority for Merton to publicize Mohism. Of course, it can''t be as simple as handing out leaflets in the street. In addition, all fresh fish shops in Mojia village set up eight very big slogans at the door of the store. Even in some prominent positions, Merton didn''t hesitate to rent places with a lot of money.


    "Keep pace with the times, explore and innovate!" these eight words can be seen in the most prominent positions in all streets of Chang''an city. Below is a line of small words: "welcome to the Mohist ink technology exhibition."


    Liu Yinian walked in the street of Chang''an City and looked up at the slogan of Mojia village. His heart was shocked. This was the third slogan he saw all the way.


    As a doctor of the Imperial College, Liu Yinian not only has profound attainments in calligraphy, but also has first-class literary skills. Even if he has not seen these eight words, he can feel the ambitious intention of Mohism only from the literal meaning.


    In the book of changes, there is a cloud that damages the divination, damages the hardness and benefits the softness. Sometimes, the profits and losses are full of emptiness, which can be done at any time


    The benefit divination has clouds, the benefit moves and sundans, and the day enters boundless territory; Heaven gives birth to earth, which is not beneficial. All the ways of benefit go with the times.


    The Mohist school directly summarizes the essence of the book of changes, and creatively puts forward the idea of keeping pace with the times on the basis of doing everything with the times. That is to make progress with the times. What era is it now? The era of the Tang Dynasty.


    "This must be the attention of Mohists?" Liu Yinian knew from the bottom of his heart that only Merton had this talent.


    What is more valuable is the following four words, development and innovation, which is an unusual road for Mohism, a road that others have not gone through.


    "Small hole imaging, portable kilos, dialogue across the city, and live fish secrets. Now all the secrets of Mohism are displayed. What exactly does Mohism want to do?"


    Liu Yinian looked at the advertisement in his hand and was deeply puzzled.


    Don''t the Mohists understand the saying that the disciples of the church starve to death? Is this a reflection of the Mohist school, or does the Mohist school have a greater plot? With doubts, Liu Yinian hurried to the Imperial College.


    There were many doctors like him, each with a leaflet in his hand and full of doubts. Obviously, they were shocked by the great pen of Mohism.


    Different from the excitement of Guozijian students and Chang''an citizens, the top figures of Guozijian were worried and consciously gathered at the office of guoziji wine offering Kong Yingda.


    "The Mohist school is not easy!" Kong Yingda sighed and put down his pen. "Keep pace with the times, explore and innovate" was printed on the paper.


    "Just listen to the eight words, you will feel a boiling blood?" Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, said with a bitter smile.


    Other doctors have a bad face and are extremely uncomfortable. Even if they have different positions, they have to admit that these eight words are indeed very talented and can''t help being jealous. Why aren''t such excellent students Confucian children?


    "In my opinion, the Mohist school is bluffing. He spilled the only bottom pressing box of Mohism. At that time, the last bottom pressing box of Mohism was defeated. I don''t know what the ancestors of Mohism under Jiuquan think of him?" Liu Yinian''s tone was not good.


    "Yes, in my opinion, the Mohist school is fighting to the death. Now that the Mohist school has arrived, there is only one stronghold left. Instead of being half dead, it''s better to fight. It''s reasonable for him to change the tradition of the Mohist school." a teaching assistant analyzed.


    "If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be flexible!" Kong Yingda''s reader Merton wrote Li Shimin''s Memorial, nodded and said, "this is indeed the style of Mohist. He is very bold and thoughtful. I don''t know if his move can save Mohism!"


    Kong Yingda lamented that both Mohism and Confucianism were prominent schools in the pre-Qin period, and now Mohism has almost disappeared, so he can''t help but sigh.


    "In any case, this move of the Mohist school will certainly have a bad impact on our Imperial College. What shall we do? Should the Mohist school be allowed to be so arrogant?" Liu Yinian said discontentedly.


    "What do you want? The Mohists publish their secrets on their own ground. Do you want to smash the field or let the National Academy of Sciences hold an exhibition?" Kong Yingda lined up the advertising list on the table and scolded.


    Liu Yinian suddenly blushed. He didn''t know what to say? Suddenly his eyes were frozen and widened. He grabbed Kong Yingda''s advertising list and looked at it incredulously.


    "What''s the matter?" everyone was surprised.


    "So it is, so it is!" Liu Yinian ignored the crowd and kept repeating this sentence in his crazy mouth.


    "Liu Yinian!" Kong Yingda shouted angrily.


    Liu Yinian suddenly woke up from his bewilderment and hurriedly said, "I''m sorry, sir. It''s impolite."


    Liu Yinian spread out the advertisement sheet on Kong Yingda''s desk, took out another advertisement sheet from his arms and placed it on the desk.


    "Please look at the difference between these two advertising lists, sacrificial Lord and colleagues."


    As like as two peas of Kong Yingda, all the doctoral tutor looked at these two advertisements, shaking their heads, "no difference, what exactly!"


    "Yes, as like as two peas!" said Liu Yi''s teeth. "And there is no difference!"


    "There is no difference at all?" the people were surprised and looked at the two advertising sheets. They were surprised. The notes of the two advertising sheets were not only the same, but one of them used a little more ink, so that the other one also used more ink in the same place.


    As like as two peas, they could not help but draw a breath. Their knowledge of the learned world could not be the same as the two sheets of paper.


    As like as two peas, Shen Hongcai suddenly took a single ad from his arms, and it was still the same as it was.


    Soon, fourth, fifth, and finally neat eight Zhang Yimo''s ad list placed on the table neatly.


    "What''s going on? How did the Mohists do it?" Kong Yingda wondered.


    "It''s nothing? I''ve seen it with magic." Liu Yinian smiled bitterly, took out three piles of thick schoolwork from his desk and distributed it to everyone one by one.


    "No pen, as like as two peas?" Shen Hongcai was stunned.


    Other Guozijian doctors were also stunned.


    "As like as two peas, Qin Huaiyu and Cheng, Mo, three are all friends of Mohist, and three of the schoolwork and the advertising list of Mohist school are all in one model, obviously they are made in the same way." Liu Yinian analyzed.


    "According to the officer, leaflets are distributed at every street entrance of Chang''an in Mojia village. At least thousands of leaflets are distributed a day. It can be seen that this method can write the same content on paper quickly and quickly." Shen Hongcai analyzed the moon with his eyes and said excitedly, "if this method is used to ''write'' four books and five classics, students all over the world will still copy books!"


    Everyone''s eyes lit up. This secret skill of Mohism is related to the duty of educating the people. It will certainly remain famous in history in the future.


    "This secret skill must be in the hands of the Imperial College." Kong Yingda and the people looked firm.

 Chapter 53

    In the Imperial College, Zhicheng road.


    Zhicheng road is the largest road of the Imperial College. The road is paved with green stone slabs. Sculptures of Confucius'' 72 disciples are carved on both sides of the road. Every imperial college student likes to go through this road to watch the common of sages studying. Therefore, this road is also the road with the largest flow of imperial college students.


    Zhicheng road is not only the meaning of gentleman''s sincerity, but also the place where the Imperial College punishes students who make mistakes. Today, Zhicheng road welcomes three regular guests and a new person.


    Merton, Qin Huaiyu, Cheng Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin stood there with their heads bowed and sighed one by one. Qin Huaiyu, as the main criminal, held their schoolwork, while Merton, as the murderer, held their own advertising list.


    The weather in the first month was still very cold, and the sky was still cloudy. A breeze blew, and the four people couldn''t help shivering with cold, very miserable.


    Hearing the news, the Guozijian students surrounded them and pointed at them from time to time.


    Qin Huaiyu, as regular guests of Zhicheng Road, have long been used to this battle. They are as brazen as the city wall. Merton comes from later generations and has never seen any battles. This thing has no psychological pressure at all.


    "What do you think?"


    Hearing the news, Zu Mingjun looked at the four people in surprise. They were fine yesterday. Only one day later, they were punished by the wine worship adults.


    "What else can we do? Cheating has happened!" Xiong maocai said in a strange way. He was very happy when he heard that Merton was punished. He specially ran to see the jokes of the four people.


    Zu Mingjun looked at the things in Qin Huaiyu''s hands and then looked at the leaflet in Merton''s hands. He couldn''t help but realize that he had heard Qin Huaiyu''s three people show off to Li Gaoming about writing their schoolwork with printing!


    He also took part in distributing leaflets, but he didn''t expect the incident to happen so soon.


    "There is no shortage of twenty big characters, and each one is my handwriting. I cheat by my ability." Qin Huaiyu said proudly, ignoring Xiong maocai''s sarcasm.


    "Hum! Cheating is cheating. Now the sacrificial Lord has got the evidence of your cheating. He has already reported to his majesty that mojiazi must be removed from the Imperial College, and the three of you will be stripped even if you don''t die."


    Xiong maocai snorted coldly and his heart was very happy. Since Merton showed his hard pen calligraphy, Xiong maocai felt like a clown. The bad words he said about Merton hit him in the face like slaps.


    How much he hated the MOH family''s defeat at that time. If Merton defeated himself squarely, he wouldn''t have such a big complaint now. Just like Kong huisuo and Zu Mingjun, although they were dissatisfied with Merton, they were convinced of the loss, not like him now.


    "Hum! I won''t bother you, Xiong maocai, what do you do?"


    "Dogs meddle with mice."


    "The villain who fell into the well!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton''s four words pierced Xiong maocai''s weak heart like a sword, and immediately made him blush with blood.


    Even the students around the Imperial College felt that Xiong maocai had gone too far.


    After all, Merton is their classmate now, and Merton asks the steamed stuffed bun shop at the door to supply the students of the National Academy of Sciences at half price. As the saying goes, taking people''s hands is soft and eating people''s mouth is short, while Xiong maocai usually doesn''t eat less. At this time, he has a short mouth at all, but falls into a well.


    Character is not good. Many Guozijian students secretly evaluate in their hearts and subconsciously stay away from Xiong maocai.


    Xiong maocai saw the eyes of the students around him and felt the alienation of his classmates. His heart was like putting an end to crying blood. He consciously turned pale and staggered away.


    "It''s all the Mohist family!" Xiong maocai felt a deep hatred in his heart. He had unlimited scenery, but he has been unlucky since he met Mohist family.


    However, these students don''t have a good impression of Merton. After all, the Mohist school has always pursued a conservative and stable. Merton can even cheat to get such a shocking weapon as printing. Of course, he doesn''t attract the students of the National Academy of Sciences.


    However, the class will start soon. The students will leave, and Zu Mingjun will leave in a hurry. Zhicheng road will restore calm.


    "Hey! We''re the one who got Merton into trouble! If we didn''t want to cheat, how could Merton help us with printing?" Qin Huaiyu sighed.


    "A secret skill that has been famous for thousands of years has been turned into hard evidence of cheating by us. It''s estimated that we''ll be famous in history, and our reputation will be destroyed." Chumo sighed.


    "Up to now, you are thinking about the famous history?" Qin Huaiyu glared at Chumo.


    "Yes, that''s what will happen in the future. What about our future schoolwork?" Wei Chi Baolin thundered to everyone.


    This rammer is still thinking about the regret that you can''t cheat. How big should your heart be!


    Merton looked at the three bad friends and said nothing for a long time. What evil did he do! Spread them.


    "Don''t worry, it''ll be all right this time!" Merton said confidently.


    "Huh?"


    The three looked at Merton suspiciously. They didn''t understand how Merton was so confident.


    Merton smiled and did not explain to the three that he had reached an agreement with Kong Yingda.


    Kong Yingda now hates and loves mojiazi. The hateful mojiazi even talks with him about such a technology that can print books quickly, otherwise he will let this technology disappear for thousands of years and resolutely refuse to admit that they cheat.


    God, doesn''t he know how valuable this technology is? In order to protect millions of students from the suffering of copying books, Kong Yingda had to sign the alliance under the city, which allowed Merton to take out the template of printing.


    Daxing palace.


    Kong Yingda, as a descendant of the Confucius family, is also the Imperial College''s wine offering, and his status is respected. Unless there is a great court discussion, he doesn''t need to go to the court often.


    "The sun came out in the West. Unexpectedly, I saw Kong Da''s sacrifice here?"


    Needless to say, such an outspoken guy must be Cheng Yaojin. He was born to deal with Kong Yingda''s sour scholar. He pinches him every time he meets.


    "Hum! Don''t be outspoken, you rammed goods. Today''s matter is also related to your precious son!" Kong Yingda said coldly.


    "You sour scholar, don''t want the contradiction between you and me. If you involve children, it''s your fault?" Cheng Yaojin said with a bad face.


    Kong Yingda immediately blushed and said, "I''m not the kind of person you think!"


    Cheng Yaojin looks at Kong Yingda carefully with suspicious eyes, which almost makes Kong Yingda jump with anger.


    "The emperor has arrived!"


    Just when Kong Yingda was angry, Pound''s sharp voice sounded in the Tai Chi hall.


    "See the emperor!"


    Li Shimin was dressed in a Golden Dragon Robe and walked in in a tiger''s stride.


    "Kong Aiqing, I heard that you have a major event related to the country. Don''t you play it quickly."


    Now Li Shimin is in his prime of life. His voice is full of spirit and Imperial Majesty.

 Chapter 54

    "Your Majesty, please look at the schoolwork of these three people!" Kong Yingda handed over the schoolwork of Qin Huaiyu. Fat immediately came forward and took it over to Li Shimin.


    "Chumo Cheng, Huaiyu Qin, and Baolin Wei Chi?"


    Li Shimin looked at the three names strangely and turned them over a little. His face was strange. It was obvious that he also found the strangeness.


    "Qin Aiqing, Cheng Aiqing and Yuchi Aiqing, you three have a look!" said Li Shimin.


    The three men took the rice paper from pound suspiciously. Seeing the name of their son on the rice paper, they couldn''t help but change their face and looked at Kong Yingda slightly.


    After all, the three are children. Even if they make a mistake, they won''t say anything if they are punished directly? But how can we get the petition form of the main hall?


    "Confucius, you''ve gone too far this time!" Cheng Yaojin threatened with a grin.


    Even Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde were dissatisfied, but they didn''t attack because of the hall.


    Kong Yingda smiled bitterly and said, "please stop your anger and have a look at your lessons."


    Twenty pieces of rice paper were turned around, and the three didn''t find anything wrong.


    "No problem! This is Qin Huaiyu''s font! The number of pages is enough!" Qin Qiong said suspiciously.


    "There must be no problem. I don''t know my son''s font yet." Cheng Yaojin clapped the rice paper in his hand and said in a high voice.


    Yuchi Jingde also nodded. There was nothing wrong. There was nothing wrong.


    "The three princes really didn''t read it wrong. This is indeed the font of the three princes. At that time, even the calligraphy doctor of the Imperial College didn''t find a problem. Until we saw this!"


    Kong Yingda handed over another stack of leaflets and a board, but the board was strange, with handles and dense texts on the ground.


    Li Shimin and Qin Qiong looked at the leaflet in their hands and said nothing for a long time.


    "That''s what you want us to see."


    Li Shimin silently held up the leaflet in his hand, on which the five words "Mohist ink technology exhibition" attracted attention.


    Kong Yingda as like as two peas, as like as two peas in the same official propaganda leaflet, he said, "these three leaflets are just like the three sons of the Duke of the country. Each one is exactly the same. It shows that the lessons of the two sons of the public are not written by themselves, but printed."


    "Print it out?" Li Shimin frowned, thought a little, and suddenly realized the mystery. He picked up the jade seal in his hand and printed it on the advertising list several times. Sure enough, it was very similar to the handwriting of the advertising list, without a stroke.


    Kong Yingda nodded, picked up the template with several numbers in his hand and said with a bitter smile, "but his seal is much larger and much cheaper."


    "That''s true!" Qin Qiong''s face was a little embarrassed. Her children cheated, and even they hid it from the emperor. Moreover, it made the emperor feel ashamed of the three of them.


    "This bear boy, you must clean him up when you go home!" Yuchi Jingde angrily said.


    "I beg your Majesty''s pardon for my teaching son''s incompetence." Cheng Yaojin quickly apologized.


    "Please forgive me, your majesty!" Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde also asked for forgiveness.


    Li Shimin was immediately in a dilemma. Qin Qiong and the three are the respect of the Duke of the country. How can they commit crimes because of this small matter, and Kong Yingda is a descendant of the Kong family. It is difficult to do on both sides!


    "The three princes misunderstood. I didn''t come here to sue the three princes, but to ask for merit for the three princes." Kong Yingda immediately made an uproar in the court.


    What''s the matter? Kong Yingda, a stubborn old man, finally caught the evidence of Qin Huaiyu''s cheating. They have all sued the emperor. Why did they suddenly turn around, but they were invited by them. Did Kong Yingda also degenerate and lose his Zhengzheng character.


    "Don''t make fun of Kong Jijiu. In order to avoid his schoolwork, the villain came up with such a fantastic method. It''s bold. If he gets into trouble, he must be severely punished, otherwise he will become a talent in the future." Qin Qiong said positively.


    "Lord Yiguo calmed down. I''m not kidding. It was the three CHILDES who happened to invent this invention to benefit thousands of students and educate the people in order to avoid their schoolwork." Kong Yingda said.


    "Benefit thousands of students and educate thousands of people!" everyone in chaotang was stunned. This turning point is a little big!


    "It''s impossible!" Cheng Yaojin was a little shocked again. His children cheated and made a point. It''s related to the students all over the world and educated the people. This responsibility is really too great!


    "There must be no exaggeration!" Kong Yingda said solemnly. "You are also people who often write. Do you know that it takes at least one morning to write 20 words. Do you know how long it takes to use the board?"


    Under the puzzled eyes of the ministers, Kong Yingda picked up the engraving board and adjusted the ink on a stack of blank rice paper according to Merton''s method.


    "BAM BAM... BAM bam!"


    After twenty sounds, twenty pieces of rice paper were printed.


    "Twenty breaths!" the crowd grew up and couldn''t believe it.


    "There are more than tens of thousands of poor students in the world. Most of them have to read books by themselves in order to study. If this engraving printing technology and a large number of printed books are adopted, wouldn''t it be the gospel of the students in the world. How many students can benefit." Kong Yingda blushed excitedly.


    "Yes! When I was a child, I couldn''t afford to buy books. I copied the first Analects myself for three days and nights!" a minister recalled the hard years of his childhood.


    "Yes, in order to buy a book, my mother sold it to a scholar who had been stabbing for a whole month. My poor mother''s hands were red with acupuncture."


    A minister cried.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    More and more ministers were excited to realize the benefits of block printing.


    One by one, they had to experiment with engraving printing, spread rice paper, brush ink mud, and press it gently, and a leaflet of ink technology exhibition was printed.


    "Dead kid!" Kong Yingda could not help gnashing his teeth at Merton as he looked at the newly released advertising lists.


    Kong Yingda originally wanted to ask Qin Huaiyu for the template for cheating, but Merton insisted that the three people would destroy it after printing their schoolwork in order to avoid exposure. There is only the template for printing advertising sheets. Do you like it or not!


    As a last resort, Kong Yingda had to take the only template to the Tai Chi hall.


    Looking at the imperial dignitaries helping Merton print advertising lists, Kong Yingda didn''t have to think about it. He knew the idea of the ink family and put the advertisement of the ink technology exhibition on the court.


    If you let future generations know and don''t lose your chin, this is the first advertising list in the world. It''s really going to go against the sky.


    However, for the sake of block printing, Kong Yingda had to bite his teeth. Confucianism got block printing, and Mohists put advertisements on the court. Who can take advantage of it?

 Chapter 55

    "Hahaha, it''s worthy of my old Cheng''s seed. It''s just unusual. Even writing schoolwork can make such a printing technique." Cheng Yaojin laughed proudly. "I think the teacher beat me when I wrote schoolwork when I was a child. Don''t mention how miserable it was. My ass blossomed."


    Cheng Yaojin proudly showed off his black history and was complacent. Suddenly, the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty was covered with black lines. He dared to talk about everything.


    "This rammer wants to seal his mouth!"


    There is only one idea in everyone''s mind.


    However, the old guy has a strong combat effectiveness. He often fights with the crowd of Confucians, and he still doesn''t lose the wind. He doesn''t give up on reason and doesn''t give up on reason, so the people decided to ignore him.


    But soon the old thing played tricks. He took the engraving template, painted the printing mud, printed one by one, and soon printed a large pile. He picked up the printed advertising sheets and distributed them one by one like ministers.


    "Look, this is block printing. My son invented it. Isn''t it powerful?"


    "This thing is the same as the big seal. You often play Yin. Are you ashamed to let a few yellow haired children make such an artifact to educate the people?"


    "We were playing with India, not Yin." civil servants roared in their hearts. They turned red when they heard the irony of Cheng biting Jin''s mouth.


    "Wei Chen impeached Duke Lu, openly despised the court, and distributed Mohist advertisements on the court." a gray haired imperial historian couldn''t help complaining loudly to Li Shimin.


    "Cheng Yaojin!"


    Li Shimin also had a headache and hurriedly stopped Cheng Yaojin from continuing his absurdity.


    "Hum, I think you are jealous!"


    Cheng Yaojin withdrew bitterly, but left a lot of advertising lists in the court. As for the schoolwork of Qin Huaiyu, the three princes who had already become elite quietly gathered in their arms. This is evidence of their son''s cheating. It''s better to destroy the corpse.


    "Well done!"


    Qin Qiong quietly gave Cheng Yaojin a thumbs up and vaguely patted her in the arms of her bulging bag.


    Cheng Yaojin''s heart will smile.


    Engraving printing is actually very simple, that is, the expanded version of engraving. When this layer of window paper is poked open, everyone understands his principle. At the same time, they also know how convenient engraving printing is and how fast it can be stamped. As officials, they have a deep experience.


    The important Minister of the Manchu Dynasty looked at the advertising list in his hand and smiled bitterly. A good event was stirred by Cheng Yaojin.


    The eyes are full of small holes, and the teenagers who lift thousands of kilograms of weight,... They are really hot eyes.


    Su Lingnong, the senior minister of agriculture, looked at the advertising list in his hand and couldn''t help brightening his eyes. He quickly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty is very happy?"


    "Er, ER!" man Chao Wen and Wu looked at big Si Nong in surprise. What are you doing here? Do you also have printing.


    "Su Aiqing, what do you like?" Li Shimin said.


    "Your Majesty, today is a double happiness! Today is not only the gospel of thousands of students, but also the gospel of thousands of fishermen. The Mohists have decided to announce the secret skills of live fish!" Su Lingnong said excitedly, pointing to the leaflet in his hand.


    "Announce the secret skills of live fish?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    Looking at the leaflet in his hand, Li Shimin was immediately attracted. He imaged the small hole and mentioned the boy with a thousand kilograms. Finally, he found the news of announcing the secret skills of live fish.


    "This little catfish is trustworthy!" Li Shimin smiled.


    He has heard about how much profit the secret skills of live fish have made in Chang''an city. He didn''t expect that the Mexican family would be willing to announce the secret skills of live fish so early, which is not what ordinary people can do.


    "With the secret skills of live fish and the method of artificial fish culture, Weichen promised that the output of fish will double this year, the life of fishermen will be greatly improved, and the price of meat will drop, and there will be more at that time." Su Lingnong said happily.


    All courtiers could not help but nodded. Now Tang Zhaoma is strategic material, horse meat is not edible, farm cattle are registered residence, they can not eat, pork is not eaten, they think that is the next person to eat, mutton is too expensive, chicken and duck geese feeding very little, the price of meat is high Gach.


    In contrast, fish do not need to be fed. They are fished directly from rivers and ponds. The price is relatively cheap and there are many people who eat. If the output of fish increases greatly, it will certainly benefit many people.


    "Well, in this way, it is indeed the wealth of the people!" Li Shimin nodded.


    "I beg your majesty to use this engraving printing technique to publish the secret skills of live fish and the method of artificial fish culture, so that imperial fishermen can use its magic method as soon as possible," Su Lingnong said.


    "Wonderful, engraving printing is a combination of two swords. This method is really wonderful!" Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking. This method is too convenient and the efficiency is amazing.


    "In the future, the decrees of the imperial court can also be printed and distributed to all counties and townships." Fang Xuanling was also surprised.


    You should know that the biggest drawback at this time is that communication is very inconvenient. The spread of news is too slow. If we use engraving printing to print the imperial decrees at the fastest speed and then send them to all parts of the country, we can spread the decrees throughout the country in the shortest time, which is of great benefit to the Empire to strengthen its rule.


    The ministers of the central court were very smart. They soon thought that the benefits of block printing were far more than printing books. On the contrary, block printing could be used in all aspects, so they couldn''t help paying more attention to block printing.


    "Good!" Li Shimin said with praise,


    "Kong Aiqing is selfless and wise. I''m sure I will be rewarded for recommending such a heavy weapon."


    "Your Majesty loves you wrongly. I don''t have the slightest effort to take credit for this. The real meritorious people are the three princes of the state and the sons of the Mo family. They are the meritorious people who have contributed such important tools to the Empire." Kong Yingda resolutely postponed his Majesty''s reward.


    Li Shimin nodded and looked at Cheng Yaojin and others.


    "Your Majesty, they are absolutely lawless. Three of them are trying to escape their schoolwork, and one is trying to publish such absurd advertisements. If they are rewarded without punishment, I''m afraid they will be lawless in the future. This wind can''t last long!" Cheng Yaojin shook his head again and again.


    Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde also repeatedly objected. They are all extreme ministers, and their sons will inherit their titles in the future. They don''t need these false names at all.


    Li Shimin suddenly had a toothache. Indeed, one of their four motives was impure, three were to escape school work, and one was an accomplice. They also committed such heavy crimes.


    Li Shimin thought about it and said with a bright eye, "Mo San, a member of the Mohist village, offered engraving and printing for the Empire. He was awarded the title of ''great craftsman'' and Baron."


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    The imperial knighthood was originally very rigorous, but none of the courtiers objected. If a baron could change such a military weapon, how many would be changed.

 Chapter 56

    "Your Majesty, please punish the Mohist son for bullying the king." Wang Yushi suddenly stepped out of the line and said amazing words. All courtiers looked at Wang Yushi in surprise.


    "The crime of bullying the king?" Li Shimin was confused.


    "The king''s censor has something to aim at! Merton said a word to his majesty and announced the secret skills of live fish on time. Why should he deceive the king." Qin Qiong''s face was not good.


    Li Shimin also looked at Wang Yushi with a bad face. Suddenly, he found that engraving and printing was an artifact, and the whole court was harmonious. The Wang Yushi suddenly destroyed the atmosphere.


    "What Duke Yi said is true. Mozi did announce the secret skills of live fish as promised, but your majesty, please look at Mozi''s advertising list. How can there be teenagers moving forward with their hands? Such a false thing that Mozi openly publicized in Chang''an city. Is it the act of a gentleman?"


    Wang Yushi said angrily. In fact, he knew that this alone was not enough to punish the Mexican family who invented engraving printing. However, seeing that the Mexican family is becoming more and more popular, when can he take revenge? At present, as long as the Mexican family is labeled as dishonest, it will destroy the reputation of the Mexican family, make the Mexican family lose the holy pet, and there will be opportunities for revenge in the future.


    "It''s just a street payment. It''s a little too much to say it''s the crime of bullying the king!" unexpectedly, Kong Yingda came forward to speak for Merton. He didn''t want the Imperial College to have a crime of bullying the king. Even if he didn''t like Merton anymore, Merton represented the glory of the Imperial College.


    "Even if it''s distributed to the people, it''s actually lying to the people. But now it has appeared in the court hall, and even your majesty has been deceived by it. According to the observation of the lower officer, the false information on the advertisement is not only this, but it''s a great myth to talk across the wall. Such a dishonest person is really despised." Wang Yushi is extremely insidious, Directly discredit Merton.


    After Wang Yushi''s words, many courtiers nodded and thought that these things were really impossible with their common sense.


    "I''m seventy-three years old. I''ve never heard such a ridiculous thing." a gray haired civil servant shook his head and said.


    "I''m also a trustworthy man. I didn''t expect him to be such a lying villain."


    "Hey! It''s the old man who looked away!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Civil servants, you speak to me one by one, with a sad look, and directly set the charge of deception for Merton.


    Kong Yingda was tongue tied. He wanted to argue for Merton, but he couldn''t speak. After all, he also felt that such a thing could not happen.


    "Tell your majesty that although Mozi has made contributions to the country, his character can''t be cultivated. The Imperial College is an important place of the country and trains talents. How can such a person with such character enter? Weichen asked for the qualification of the supervisor of the son of Merton." the Royal historian said ruthlessly.


    Merton''s biggest umbrella now is that he was appointed by his majesty to enter the Imperial College. Once others touch him, they will certainly disturb Li Shimin. If Merton loses this umbrella, he is just an ordinary declining County uncle, and he will not be at his disposal at that time.


    Li Shimin was also embarrassed for a while. Merton was the experimenter of catfish effect appointed by him. He had just made great contributions to the secret skills of live fish and block printing. Now he has exposed the stain of dishonesty, which really embarrassed him.


    "Wang Yushi, how do you know this is a young man? Did you ever ask for proof that the kilogram is false?" Qin Qiong suddenly said.


    Wang Yushi stammered, "it''s still necessary to verify. It''s common sense."


    "Before that, have you ever heard of the secret technique of living fish, or the engraving printing technique that can print thousands of books a day? If we haven''t seen it with our own eyes, do we all think these are fake?" Qin Qiong forced her to ask.


    Everyone suddenly, yes! Before that, we all know that fish will die soon after leaving the pond. People can only copy one book a day. Now the secret skills of Mohism have directly subverted people''s Three Outlooks and made the impossible possible.


    "It''s just the Mo family''s tricks with the help of ingenious sexual skills, and it''s impossible for a young man to lift a thousand kilograms of weight. It''s also the limit for an adult to weigh two hundred kilograms. It must be that the overlord of Chu couldn''t reach this. If there was such a young man with such peerless divine power, I would give him a watch to ask for merit at the first time." the imperial historian Wang didn''t believe it.


    "That''s a coincidence. The boy who mentioned lifting a kilogram of weight is the dog Huaiyu." Qin Qiong shook her robe and said in a positive color.


    The man Dynasty was in an uproar. He didn''t expect that this teenager was Qin Huaiyu, a bear child who escaped from school cheating and was stabbed into the court. In an instant, he became a peerless teenager comparable to the overlord of Western Chu. This turning point is really a little big!


    no It is more powerful than the overlord of Western Chu. This is a teenager and there is still a lot of room for growth.


    "Seriously? Huaiyu really has the ability to lift a thousand catties!" Li Shimin said in surprise. If Qin Huaiyu really has the power of a thousand catties, it doesn''t mean that the Tang Dynasty has added another peerless divine general. A peerless God general with Huo Qubing''s age and comparable to the power of the overlord of Western Chu.


    "Your Majesty laughed. It''s just a legend to pull a thousand kilograms. As far as I know, Huaiyu''s strength is only about 200 kilograms and can open two bows. However, the villain returned home yesterday and showed off that he would lift a thousand kilograms with one hand at the ink technology exhibition." Qin Qiong said with a bitter smile.


    "One hand?" the whole hall was in an uproar.


    "Isn''t that possible?"


    "Even if the overlord of Western Chu was alive, he also carried the tripod with both hands."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Wei Chen also thought it was impossible. He specially asked the rebel, but the rebel said he had mentioned it himself. As for how to do it, he didn''t say. He also said that if you don''t believe it, you can see it in person on the second day of February."


    "Have you done it?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Li Shimin is stupid.


    Wang Yushi was also stupid,


    Even the Manchu civil and military are stupid.


    "Weichen also doesn''t understand, but he still doesn''t have the courage to cheat me if he wants to believe in the villain." Qin Qiong said confidently.


    Suddenly, many people laughed heartily.


    Cheng Yaojin also came forward and said, "Chumo once said at home that he had personally tried to talk with Yuchi Baolin across the city wall. It''s really feasible."


    "The silly boy of my family can''t hide his words at all. He has been yelling at home for a long time, but they don''t know how to do it. The Mohist school is still keeping it a secret." Yuchi Jingde also testified.


    "So it''s true!" Li Shimin nodded.


    "It''s too early to make a conclusion whether Mojia village can do it or not. Everything will be known on the second day of February." Kong Yingda said. He didn''t want the students of the Imperial College to commit the crime of bullying the king and endanger the reputation of the Imperial College.


    A farce about the crime of bullying the king ended temporarily. Wang Yushi was unwilling and had no way. Everything depends on the Mohist ink technology exhibition on the second day of February.

 Chapter 57

    Mojiazi and Qin Huaiyu were unharmed and acquitted. The news has spread, and the whole Imperial College was in an uproar. The wine worship Lord has been sued in the court, and the four people have not been punished. What is the reason.


    "Officials protect each other. When will our ordinary students come out?" cried a Guozi supervisor.


    "Shh, be careful! It''s not that simple!" someone quickly warned.


    After careful inquiry, I found out that the things they fooled around to avoid their schoolwork were praised by the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty and said that they were an artifact to educate all the people.


    "God has no eyes!"


    Countless students in the Imperial College are jealous and angry. Why didn''t they discover the merit of engraving printing in the future?


    "You''re lucky!"


    Xiong maocai said with hatred. He didn''t expect that such a hard evidence was overturned by the four people.


    It''s a pity to miss this opportunity. It''s even more difficult to find the fault of Mohism.


    "This is really lucky!" Qin Huaiyu said with lingering fear.


    I thought this time I didn''t have to take off the skin, but I didn''t expect to get away so soon. Not only was I not punished, but also I made an artifact to educate all the people.


    "Ha ha, I''m so powerful. Don''t you agree?" Chumo shouted wildly at the national supervisors who had satirized them.


    When they were punished to stand on Zhicheng Road, many people satirized him, but he kept them in mind one by one, and now he specializes in showing off around these people.


    One by one, the State Children''s prison students were like eating a fly. They had to endure the pain. Finally, Merton couldn''t see it anymore and hurriedly pulled the three away.


    "Hum! Satirize me!" Wei Chi Baolin was reluctant to let go before he left.


    In the Mo mansion,


    The four of them spread out on the chairs and were still excited.


    "Merton, do you think this engraving seal is really so good?" Qin Huaiyu was still in a dream.


    "It''s block printing!" Merton corrected.


    "Yes, it''s woodblock printing." weichi Baolin and Chumo also hurried over. He looked at Merton curiously.


    Merton thought for a while, hesitated for a while, satisfied the three people''s appetite and said, "it''s enough to keep a name in history."


    "What..."


    "Leave a name in history?"


    The three opened their mouths and were stunned there.


    "You''re kidding!" Qin Huaiyu said dryly.


    Merton shook his head slowly.


    "Seriously?"


    Three people can''t believe it.


    "Seriously!" Merton said positively.


    "Ouch!"


    The three men immediately roared and jumped up and down from their chairs excitedly.


    "Now we have invented such a good thing by mistake. Look who dares to look down on us in the future." Chumo said proudly.


    Before that, they were all dandies, and no one took them seriously. Now they finally have a merit that can show off their life.


    "The imperial edict is coming!" a sharp voice spread all over the ink house in an instant.


    "Hahaha, it must be a reward for us!" Qin Huaiyu ran away in ecstasy.


    When the imperial edict arrived, Merton dared not neglect it and hurriedly summoned the people of the ink house to gather in the front yard.


    I saw a slightly fat eunuch standing in the front yard, accompanied by Fubo respectfully.


    This person is eunuch pound around Li Shimin.


    "See the emissary!" Merton bowed and saluted all the people in the Mohist house.


    This time is not a kneeling ceremony. It is not the time to worship heaven and ancestors. It is very solemn to bow down.


    "Father Pang, are you here to find us? It''s bothering you to find the ink mansion at once." Qin Huaiyu said happily.


    "No!" pound replied and immediately stunned Qin Huaiyu there.


    "How could it be?" Chumo laughed.


    "Where is mo San?" pound said in a shrill voice with a wave of his long sleeve.


    Mo San came out vaguely. He didn''t understand why the big people from the palace wanted to find him.


    "Mo San, a member of the Mohist village, is skilled, dedicated to the country and dedicated to engraving and printing. He is specially given the title of ''great craftsman'', Baron and thousand liang of silver!" pound''s sharp voice echoed throughout the Mohist house.


    "Made by a great craftsman!"


    Mo San was like a dream. His majesty personally issued a decree to grant him the position of master craftsman.


    "Mo San hasn''t answered yet!" pound reminded Mo San when he looked vaguely.


    Merton quietly kicked him in the back, and Mo San suddenly came back.


    "Cao min Mo San receives the edict." Mo San bows down and receives the edict.


    "No!" Qin Huaiyu said lost.


    "No!" said pound with a smile.


    "How could it be gone! Woodblock printing was invented because of us!" Qin Huaiyu didn''t believe it.


    "The three of you are the main culprits in order to avoid school work. Mozi is an accomplice in making engraving printing for you. Only Mozi is skillful and devoted to his duty. He should be rewarded. Although you made engraving printing by mistake, your motivation is not pure. Your majesty originally wanted to reward you, but your father resolutely postponed it, and finally decided that your four merits and demerits should offset each other "Said pound.


    "The merits and demerits are equal! My father himself refused to accept it."


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them all want to die. They were just proud that they had not been punished. Now they want to stand on Zhicheng road for a few more days. That''s a feat left a name in history! It''s gone!


    "Pit son!" it''s usually their pit father. I didn''t expect to be pit by my father now. It''s really a retribution.


    Merton looked at it. He always knew the importance of block printing, but the Mohist school is still weak and there is no need to show off.


    It''s a surprise that Mo San can get the title of great craftsman, the title of County man, and a thousand liang of silver.


    "Father Pang, please stay!"


    Merton caught up with pound and handed over a stack of things.


    "Lord Merton is very kind. Everyone needs these things." pound looked uneasy and thought Merton was trying to bribe him.


    "Grandpa Pang misunderstood. This is the latest fish recipe made by the chef fish master of Mojia village. According to the fish master, your majesty also likes to eat fish. I''d like to present the recipe for your majesty to taste fresh." Merton Lang said.


    "Oh! The Mohist school has developed the secret skill of living fish. It has always been unique in making fish. If you have a heart, the acrobat will accept it." pound said with a look.


    "It''s my honor to share your worries for your majesty."


    Pound smiled and didn''t answer. When he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly said, "you''re very good, Mo Jiazi. There hasn''t been such an interesting thing in Chang''an City for a long time."


    Merton was shocked and understood. Such words could not be said by a eunuch, but probably from the mouth of the emperor.


    "This little catfish is quite capable of tossing. He has tossed out so many good things for so long. He knows what he can do. Let''s see where he can toss!"


    Pound looked at the boy still at the door, smiled knowingly, boarded the car and left.

 Chapter 58

    "No! That''s it!"


    Qin Huaiyu is out of his mind and looks loveless.


    "Ah! It''s all fate! Am I angry that I''ve been punished for too much!" Chumo looks frustrated and sighs.


    Wei Chi Baolin took a heavy sip of tea and sat down in a chair sulking. Obviously, I still resent it.


    "Young master, i..." Mo Sany looked helpless. He thought that he had the least strength in this matter, and finally found a big bargain.


    "It''s all right. Don''t worry about them. The most important thing in this matter is your craft. You can take it with you. After the ink technology exhibition, you can take the silver reward and open a printing shop to start a family and business as soon as possible." Merton said.


    Mo San was in a panic and cried, "young master, do you want to drive me out of the house? I don''t want to leave Mojia village. I don''t want this reward. Just ask the young master not to drive me away."


    Merton immediately cried and laughed and said, "what nonsense? Who wants to drive you away? You were all villagers of Mojia village and had good citizenship. Now that you have a skill and a title, it''s not suitable to work in the Mo mansion. Now you can take this opportunity to earn a family business and start a family in the future."


    "Young master won''t lie to me!" Mo San said with tears in his smile.


    Fu Bo couldn''t see it anymore. He kicked Mo San''s ass and said, "laugh secretly, you smelly boy. The young master is kind. Don''t forget that you are a member of the Mohist village in the future. Remember the teachings of the Mohist School and the kindness of the young master."


    Mo San broke his tears and said with a smile, "Mo San always remembers that he is a member of the Mojia village."


    Mo San respectfully saluted and retreated. Soon, there were bursts of surprise voices in Mo''s house, among which the little girl in purple was the loudest.


    "I''m also a loyal man, but you''re willing." Qin Huaiyu said with satisfaction.


    "My duty is to make the villagers of Mojia village live well. If everyone has such an opportunity, I don''t have to worry so much," Merton said sincerely.


    "Well, now we have lost the chance to remain famous in history. Should we calculate the general ledger now!" Qin Huaiyu said Yin.


    "What account!" Merton looked innocent, but his footsteps moved quietly outside.


    "Want to slip away!" a big hand slapped mordu on the shoulder, and Chumo''s big face appeared behind Merton.


    Wei Chi Baolin quietly pushed to the gate and blocked Merton''s last chance of escape.


    "Three heroes, there are five thousand young people to feed, and the next installation son has not yet married and had children. Please let the three heroes have a way to live." Merton saw that he could not escape, so he quickly begged for mercy.


    "Let you go! Hum, I think about it. The root cause of this matter is that you print advertising leaflets and distribute them indiscriminately, which leads to the exposure of the whole thing. A good opportunity to keep a name in history is wasted. You should be responsible for this matter. You should compensate me for a chance to keep a name in history."


    The three pinched Merton''s neck and looked distressed. And in fact, why don''t they feel heartache? If it weren''t for Merton''s advertising on the street. Their cheating is still going on quietly.


    Wait until the right time to make a new face and launch engraving printing by yourself, so as to gain both fame and wealth.


    Instead of being stabbed directly into the hall by Professor Kong, a cooked duck flew away.


    "Let go! Let go!" Merton blushed.


    "What do you say first?" Qin Huaiyu and the three relaxed a little and gave Merton a chance to breathe.


    Coughing, Merton coughed again and again and said, "isn''t it a name in history? There are many opportunities."


    "Seriously!" Qin Huaiyu said happily.


    "Let''s talk about it first."


    The three said in their mouths, but they didn''t relax at all. They still didn''t let go of Merton.


    "I think there is a problem with the round sky and the place called by the ancients. In my opinion, the earth is not square, but round. The position we stand is a huge sphere. As long as we can face this problem, we will be able to remain famous in history," Merton said.


    The three men froze for a few seconds, immediately stepped up the siege on Merton and shouted, "you think I''m stupid! Who doesn''t know where the sky is round, you say I''m standing on a sphere. You think I''m an acrobat."


    "OK, OK! There''s another one. We often say that the sun rises in the East and sets in the West. We think that the sun revolves around us. But in fact, the sun doesn''t move. And we revolve around the sun," Merton hurriedly added.


    Qin Huaiyu didn''t speak. Then there was another ravage on Merton.


    A few years later. Qin Huaiyu''s descendants found this dialogue when sorting out their ancestors'' wills. Then look at the sun center theory put forward by Mohist sages and the great navigation promoted by Mohist to prove that the earth is a sphere. My heart tingles and only drops blood. This should have been their glory, but their ancestors gave in like this.


    There is still a lot of land in Datang that has not been occupied. In the future, you and other leaders will fight to the North until half a year of eternal day and night. The whole world is a place of ice and snow, so that the whole Datang will have no worries. In this way, it will be remembered in history. "


    "No one has been able to finish it for thousands of years. Can we do it? And what is the risk of leading a war?"


    "There are countless animals and plants in the whole Tang Dynasty. If we classify them one by one and sort out an unprecedented book covering all things, they will be famous for thousands of years.


    "This is OK, but the quantity of work is too large. Change another one."


    "If you can sort out the medicinal materials in the world and verify and correct the prescriptions in the world, you will be able to leave a name in history."


    "That''s OK. It''s really a good idea. Qin Huaiyu''s eyes brightened.


    But this requires a famous doctor to take the lead, and the three of us can''t, and I''m afraid it will take ten or eight years to complete it.


    "Twenty seven years!" Merton revealed the time when Li Shizhen wrote the compendium of Materia Medica.


    The three suddenly turned black and waved their big hands and said, "it''s too long. Change another one! We''ll use the one that''s as easy and fast as printing and can be famous in history."


    Qin Huai and Yushan were impatient. They spent 27 years to get something inexplicable.


    "What do you want? You don''t want to do too dangerous or too long." Merton said angrily.


    "We want a chance to be effective, sensational and famous in history." Qin Huaiyu whispered for a while.


    Merton''s face turned black. In the final analysis, the three of them didn''t want to be famous in history. They just wanted to have a face in front of many dandies in Chang''an City and want to have a capital to boast.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "if you say so, there is one."


    "Seriously, don''t hurry up," Chumo said eagerly.


    "Have you ever thought about going to heaven?" Merton said mysteriously.


    The three suddenly turned black and said, "I live well. I don''t want to die yet."


    Merton said, "of course, it''s not that you want to go to heaven, but really go to heaven and fly in the sky like a bird,


    "If you think about it, you are the first to invent heaven and become the first group of three people to heaven. It''s the only one in Chang''an city. It''s also twice face. It doesn''t take much time and the effect is very outstanding."


    Their eyes lit up and they nodded again and again. They immediately smiled and thought about their heroic posture flying in the sky and the envy and jealousy of dandies on the ground.


    "That''s good! That''s it! That''s it! Hurry up, how can we go to heaven."


    Merton smiled and said calmly, "I don''t know if the three can know Kong Mingdeng."


    "Of course I know. Some time ago, the Lantern Festival was let go several times, but a Kongming lamp can indeed go to heaven, but how can it drive us?" Qin Huaiyu doubted.


    "What if we enlarge the Kongming lamp a hundred times?" Merton said, wrapping his hand around an exaggerated circle


    Three people''s eyes are getting brighter and brighter. So it seems to be a feasible method.


    "I call it a hot air balloon." Merton named it directly.

 Chapter 59

    "What is a hot air balloon?" Zu Mingjun and Li Gaoming came in together, looking curious.


    "Hahaha, let me tell you a good news. Merton has given us another idea. We''re going to make a name in history." Wei Chi Baolin danced excitedly.


    Think of their grand plan. The three couldn''t help giggling. After learning about Qin Huaiyu''s plans, Li Gaoming looked indifferent, but Zu Mingjun was full of envy. After all, they could have the opportunity to remain famous in history, and few people could refuse this opportunity.


    "Unfortunately, our ancestors have divided the PI to the extreme. No matter how hard we try, we can''t surpass our ancestors?" Zu Mingjun said with regret on his face.


    "Why is it difficult? Since your ancestors achieved the highest PI, why don''t you think of other patterns? Why hang from this tree," Merton said.


    "How can it be so simple? The common patterns in the world have been studied thoroughly by the ancestors of mathematics. Even Zhao Shuang has worked out the Pythagorean theorem. Our descendants are really out of time." Zu Mingjun said regretfully.


    "Really? That''s too bad for you! It''s all discovered by your ancestors. Then give you a walnut to comfort your injured heart." Merton saw a plate of walnuts on the table, picked up a walnut and threw it gently to Zu Mingjun.


    But I didn''t expect to use too much force. Zu Mingjun didn''t receive it at once. He directly hit Zu Mingjun''s head. Merton threw the second one. Zu Mingjun stretched out his hand and received it.


    But Merton did not stop. Instead, he threw a plate of walnuts one by one to Zu Mingjun, and Zu Mingjun''s eyes became brighter and brighter, allowing walnuts to fall on his body, head and arm.


    "What''s matter with the you?" Wei Chi Baolin was confused and wanted to find out, but he didn''t want Li Gaoming to catch him.


    Wei Chi Baolin looked at Li Gaoming in surprise. Li Gaoming shook his head. He saw that Zu Mingjun was in the stage of Epiphany, and the source of epiphany was Merton''s continuous walnut.


    A plate of walnuts was about to be thrown away. When there were only the last four, Merton suddenly changed his direction and threw the four walnuts one by one to the other four people.


    Four walnuts were thrown away from zumingjun''s eyes with a beautiful gesture. Zumingjun had a flash of inspiration. He hurriedly picked up a goose feather pen in his hand, grabbed an advertising list of ink technology exhibition and drew it.


    Merton smiled and put the empty plate aside. The four looked at the walnuts in their hands in a daze and looked at Merton and the stunned zumingjun with a surprised face.


    At the moment, the ancestral monarch is like the attachment of his ancestors. Lingguang doesn''t want money. His mind is full of walnuts, which pass through his eyes, replace walnuts into a point, and the track of walnuts becomes one line after another.


    Zu Mingjun painted these lines one by one on the advertising list, and threw them away. Soon, the whole house was full of waste paper.


    When Zu Mingjun drew a semicircle unconsciously, he suddenly realized and danced excitedly.


    "Hahaha! I see! I see!" the ancestral name Jun Ru is crazy.


    Zu Mingjun picked up a brand-new rice paper and drew a whole parabola on it. And indicate the starting point, the highest point and the falling point one by one, just like the cross-section of a bowl buckled on the ground.


    "What''s this?" Chumo rushes over and looks at the reason why zumingjun is stunned.


    "This is the trajectory of walnuts thrown in mid air," Zu Mingjun explained.


    "What''s the use?" the four were confused.


    "Hahaha, of course it''s useful. With this opportunity, Zu also has a place in history." Zu Mingjun looked at the people.


    The crowd looked at him. They couldn''t help itching their teeth and directly responded to him with a burst of walnut rain.


    After the crowd frolicked for a while, Zu Mingjun proudly showed off his achievements to the crowd.


    "An object is thrown high from the ground. After passing through the highest point, its landing point has been determined. This is an unprecedented pattern. It was first discovered by my Zu Mingjun. I call it a parabola." Zu Mingjun proudly explained the principle of parabola to everyone.


    Merton speechless, as like as two peas, the historical inertia is very strong.


    "This is similar to the principle of bows and arrows. If this thing is used well, it should be able to calculate the falling point of bows and arrows." Cheng Chumo is worthy of a family of generals and points out the purpose of parabola.


    Merton nodded, which is indeed the most important use of parabola at this stage. However, the use of parabola will shine in the future. Parabola is required for projectile trajectory and intercontinental missile trajectory. More importantly, parabola involves the application of quadratic function. If Zu Mingjun can understand the essence of parabola, it will greatly improve Chinese mathematics and leave a name in history.


    "So Merton''s Walnut woke you up?" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    Everyone suddenly realized that it was Merton who continued to throw out walnuts, and the ancestor Mingjun could suddenly realize the track of walnuts.


    The crowd couldn''t help but marvel and looked at Merton strangely.


    "Thanks for brother Mo''s Walnut kindness," said Zu Mingjun with a solemn gift.


    Merton quickly dodged and said modestly, "that''s brother Zu''s own talent in arithmetic. I just see if you get something, I will continue to throw walnuts. How dare I take credit? I was afraid you blamed me for losing walnuts all the time?"


    Merton gently picked himself out. He had found that Zu Mingjun was very powerful in mathematics, and his Arabic numeral addition and subtraction was a piece of cake in front of him.


    In other words, Li Gaoming and Qin Huaiyu are like primary school students, while Zu Mingjun is already a junior high school student. It was no longer appropriate for him to study primary school courses. Merton indirectly found another difficult course for Zu Mingjun.


    "Anyway, I can understand the parabola. Brother Mo, your walnut skill is indispensable." Zu Mingjun also playfully pushed away his hair on his forehead and showed the red mark of smashing.


    Everyone burst into laughter, and the whole atmosphere suddenly became cheerful. As for the truth of the matter, as long as the parties know it clearly in their hearts.


    "I didn''t expect that Morton has the ability to enlighten when smashing a walnut. Since it''s so magical, Morton would also smash me with a walnut! See what I can understand!" Qin Huaiyu put his head together.


    "Your head is too hard. I don''t think walnuts alone can do. What do you think of this stool?" Merton raised a stool and tried to smash Qin Huaiyu.


    "That''s not good!" Qin huaiyufei retracted his head. If a stool is smashed on it, it will break your head and bleed blood.


    "What a pity! You wasted a chance to remain famous in history!" Merton said regretfully.


    "Seriously?" Qin Huaiyu said suspiciously, even a little eager to try.


    "Of course, history books must record that Qin Huaiyu died in the ninth year of Zhenguan at the age of 15." Merton said with a smile.


    "Ha ha!" the crowd burst into laughter.


    "Get out!" Qin Huaiyu''s face was black.


    The so-called young mind is not so ignorant and worried. Merton is a man for two generations. Once again, he feels that coming to Datang is not a bad choice.

 Chapter 60

    "Today we''ll learn multiplication and division."


    It''s still the original room, but the layout in the room has changed a lot. A lecture table and five sets of tables and chairs are neatly placed in the room.


    Behind the desk, a five foot wide and eight foot long wooden board replaced the original small wooden board, which was painted with a layer of black paint, slightly emitting a pungent smell.


    Merton picked up a chalk and wrote a few words on the blackboard. The white limestone was clearly printed on the dark wood, which was very conspicuous. The black-and-white contrast made people look very comfortable and clear at a glance.


    This set of equipment was made by Morton who asked Lao Zhang to hurry up. The blackboard is very simple. An apprentice can do it, and chalk is easy to do. There is no shortage of limestone in Mojia village. Water the limestone, precipitate it, and then pour it into the prepared mold. After two days of air drying, it can be formed soon.


    The snow-white chalk leaves a clear mark on the blackboard, which is clearly arranged in rows.


    "Multiplication formula table?" Qin Huaiyu read it out.


    "Yes, what we are going to learn today is multiplication, and multiplication formula table is the most important basis of mathematics." Merton became a teacher for the second time, and he has mastered the rhythm quickly.


    Zu Mingjun was shocked and looked at the multiplication formula table on the blackboard. He was shocked. Of course, he could calculate these numbers, but when he completely controlled these multiplication, he was already in his teens and worked a lot in private.


    "One by one, one by two, two by two..."


    Watching a group of old students reading multiplication formulas solemnly, whether it''s the naughty Qin Huaiyu, Li Gaoming, and Zu Mingjun, who has made great achievements in mathematics, everyone is eagerly absorbing this new knowledge.


    Merton was relieved. The knowledge he knows is the essence of thousands of years from his ancestors. Now he spreads it and saves countless detours. This is the greatest respect for these knowledge.


    Multiplication formula and simple multiplication and division are not difficult for five people. Each of them has a solid mathematical foundation and lacks only some skills. Multiplication formula directly summarizes their previous knowledge.


    "If I had known such a simple method, I wouldn''t have been subjected to so many boards." Qin Huaiyu sighed.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nodded again and again. The three of them had been in school for many years and suffered countless hardships. Only they knew the hardships.


    Although all three of them are dandies, they are also at the bottom of the National Academy. But that is compared with the National Academy of Sciences, which focuses on the national elite. Compared with ordinary people, their foundation is very good. After all, the education of the big family is systematic, and the three of them carry the prosperity of the family. They can''t be ignorant at all.


    "It''s amazing! After thousands of years of silence, the sages of Mohism developed such profound mathematical knowledge. This method is simple and convenient, easy to calculate, and it''s clear at a glance. Having this method is the gospel of thousands of students." Li Gaoming was so surprised that he couldn''t help sighing again and again.


    Zu Mingjun nodded. He is also an aristocratic family with a rich family background, and their proud achievements in mathematics are not as important as the multiplication formula table in front of them. Therefore, the multiplication formula table can also be learned smoothly by six-year-old children, which has played an inestimable role in the promotion of mathematics.


    A class was soon over. After Qin Huaiyu tasted the fish master''s mouth watering food again, they got up and left.


    "Brother Li, please stay." Merton shouted at Li Gaoming who was about to leave.


    "What''s the matter? Brother Mo, what can I do for you?" Li Gaoming wondered.


    Merton smiled silently, reached out and saw purple clothes coming in with three pairs of boots.


    "Young master!" cried the purple clothes crisply.


    "This is a gift prepared by Merton himself for brother Gaoming!" Merton pointed to his boots.


    Qin Huaiyu and others looked at the boots in Ziyi''s hand curiously and said with a smile: "Merton, you are eccentric. You even sent gifts to Li Gaoming behind our back.


    ¡±It looks really good! Such good shoes are not common! Chumo exaggerates.


    No, Chumo is right. Merton is the best shoemaker in Mojia village. The materials and workmanship are first-class.


    "Brother Mo is very kind. You can''t accept anything without merit. Gao Ming himself has the courage to study. Brother Mo didn''t hide anything from Gao Ming at the beginning of his acquaintance, but gave it to him. He is so ashamed that he can''t accept such a valuable gift again," Li Gaoming postponed.


    Merton smiled and said, "brother Gaoming, don''t refuse. Please try again."


    At Merton''s insistence, Li Gaoming reluctantly picked up Merton''s shoes for his difficulty.


    "There are three pairs of shoes in total. I don''t know brother Gao Ming''s shoe size, so I asked people to make three pairs of large, medium and small shoes. I believe there is one suitable for you." Merton said confidently.


    Li Gaoming''s face hesitated. He could see that Merton must have a reason to give him shoes, but he didn''t want to directly expose his inconvenient shortcomings in front of the public.


    "Brother Li, you''d better go to the back hall with me to try on the new shoes! You can''t live up to brother Mo''s kindness." Chumo takes the initiative to break the siege, picks up the shoes in Ziyi''s hand and leads Li Gaoming to the back hall.


    Qin Huaiyu waited in the front hall. Zu Mingjun was confused, but Qin Huaiyu looked at the back hall thoughtfully.


    "Ah!"


    Suddenly a scream came from the back hall.


    "What''s the matter?" Qin Huaiyu jumped up nervously.


    "It''s all right!" Chumo replies in a loud voice. However, there are still bursts of exclamations in the back hall, but Qin Huaiyu is surprised. Qin Huaiyu can''t bear to rush in.


    Soon. As soon as the door curtain is lifted, Li Gaoming and Chumo come in. Their faces look incredible.


    "Thank you for your kindness, brother mo. Gao Mingming keeps it in mind!" Li Gaoming walked towards Merton and saluted solemnly.


    "Gaoming, you''re welcome. It''s natural for friends to help each other." Merton quickly picked up Li Gaoming.


    "Gao Ming, your legs?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Li Gaoming''s feet in surprise. He found Li Gaoming''s leg disease. After wearing these shoes again, he couldn''t see the slightest bit and walked normally.


    "Hahaha, isn''t it incredible!" Li Gaoming was so excited that he walked steadily for a few steps. He couldn''t see that there was a problem with his legs.


    "What''s the matter?" several people were surprised. Li Gaoming had just entered the back hall for a quarter of an hour and had cured his leg disease.


    "Is it the reason for these shoes?" Zu Mingjun turned his eyes to the brand-new shoes on Li Gaoming''s feet.


    "As like as two peas, the shoes are not the same as the ordinary shoes, but the inside is hidden in the mysterious, which is more than a little bit. So Li no longer needs to be laughed at." Li Gaoming said excitedly.


    Li Gaoming is extremely excited. His leg disease has always been his heart disease. Now he has solved it so skillfully. Although he has not completely solved his foot disease, it has not affected his walking at all.


    "Morton, I really express my gratitude in words for brother mo. Gao Mingming remembers the kindness of brother mo." Li Gaoming said solemnly.


    "Brother Gao Ming said that. We are friends. It''s right for friends to help each other. If you don''t want to return, you''ll see it again!" Morton pretended to be angry.


    "Hahaha, well said, I''ll make you a friend today." Li Gaoming laughed.


    "Yes, we are friends!" Qin Huaiyu and the four also got up and said solemnly.

 Chapter 61

    Watching Li Gaoming walk out of Mo''s mansion, Chumo can''t help choking. How long has it been since his friend was not so confident.


    With this pair of shoes, although Li Gaoming''s leg disease was not directly cured, as long as he didn''t run in big strides, Li Gaoming''s walking was no different from ordinary people. He didn''t have to bear other people''s different eyes, and the pressure on Li Gaoming was swept away from now on.


    "Thank you, Merton. You don''t know how good you have done and how helpful you have been!" Chumo said excitedly, looking at Merton with inexplicable eyes.


    "He''s carrying too many things and too heavy a burden. He shouldn''t have these indifferent criticisms anymore," Merton sighed.


    Qin Huaiyu heard the speech, opened his eyes and looked at Merton like a ghost. He hesitated and said, "you... You... Know his identity?"


    Morton glared at them angrily and said, "his family name is Li. He has a disease in his legs and wants to learn arithmetic. Chumo brought it himself. You say I know his identity!"


    Chumo is embarrassed to lower his head. He is very embarrassed to hide Li Gaoming''s identity. After all, leading an unidentified person into Mo''s house is disrespectful to Merton. Unexpectedly, Merton has already guessed Li Gaoming''s identity.


    "You''re the same. You didn''t say it earlier. It made me feel guilty for so long!" Chumo said forcefully.


    "You know who he is, and you let him send leaflets!" Qin Huaiyu opened her eyes and pointed to Morton.


    "So what? He didn''t show his identity. It''s right to help each other as friends. Just like I gave him shoes, he sent me advertising lists without asking for return help. What''s the matter?" Merton said without any concern.


    Hehe, your heart is so big! Qin Huaiyu was speechless.


    Zu Mingjun looked at the four people in a daze, but he was smart. He didn''t make a sound, but he just had a faint guess in his heart.


    If it is really what he thinks, Li Gaoming''s identity will be broken.


    Li Gaoming on the carriage excitedly looked at the shoes on his feet. Leg disease has always been his biggest heart disease, which has plagued him for many years. Now it is so simple that he can solve his foot disease problem.


    "The Mohist school really deserves its reputation! Not only does it have its own uniqueness in arithmetic, but also it has a wide range of miscellaneous studies." Li Gaoming was so excited that he felt that it was the most correct decision to study in Mohist school this time.


    The carriage drove all the way through the bustling Chang''an city to the North City, where there were fewer and fewer pedestrians, and finally to the imperial city.


    "Stop!" the Imperial City bodyguard shouted, holding up his weapons in case of accidents.


    The driver, who had been inconspicuous, directly showed a token and threw it to the imperial city guard.


    A Imperial City bodyguard got the token and immediately panicked. Looking back, all bodyguards put down their weapons and bowed.


    The carriage passed directly through the imperial city and went directly to the east palace. Then it stopped. On both sides of the East Palace, palace maids and eunuchs waited neatly. When they saw Li Gaoming get off the bus, they quickly bowed and saluted.


    "Welcome your royal highness!"


    Li Gaoming got up proudly and walked into the east palace. His name was Li Gaoming. However, Gao Ming is only his word. He is his royal highness, Li Chengqian, who has a clever word.


    Li Chengqian walked into the east palace like a normal person, but the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground didn''t find the Prince Li Chengqian at all. Now you can walk like ordinary people.


    In the east palace.


    At his desk, Li Chengqian wrote quickly and sorted out the Arabic numerals, 99 multiplication formulas, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division he had learned in the Mexican government.


    After thinking for a long time, Li Chengqian picked up another memorial and analyzed in detail the significance and practical use of Arabic numerals and 99 multiplication formula, as well as their benefits to the future of Datang.


    After writing, Li Chengqian set out from the East Palace and went to the inner court. He knew that at this time of day, Li Shimin and empress Chang sun met here.


    "Prince!" Li Chengqian saw pound waiting outside the Chengde Hall of the inner court.


    Seeing that Li Chengqian came in like a normal person, he couldn''t help growing up his mouth! He opened his mouth and said, "Your Highness, you..."


    Li Chengqian nodded slightly, did not explain, smiled and said, "father and queen mother are inside!"


    "Yes... Yes! Your highness, please come in! How happy the emperor is to know the news?" pound said incoherently.


    He grew up watching Li Chengqian. Now he is as excited as watching Li Chengqian walk like a normal person again.


    As the crown prince of the East Palace, Li Chengqian didn''t need to report to his mother. He immediately stepped in.


    Inside the hall.


    Li Shimin is playing chess with the empress changsun. Seeing that he is about to win, he finds that his pieces are always inexplicably missing. Look at the expression of empress Chang sun covering her mouth and laughing. She couldn''t help shaking her head and playing chess with a woman. It seems that she can''t win all her life.


    "Gao Ming is coming!"


    Yu Guang swept Li Chengqian''s figure and hurriedly got up and confused the chess game.


    "Meet your father and mother!" Li Chengqian bowed and walked in.


    Empress Chang sun angrily waited for Li Shimin. There was no longer the attitude of an outsider. She didn''t need to wear that thick mask in front of her son and husband.


    "Gao Ming, come to the empress mother. Your father and Emperor played rogue just now!" the eldest grandson queen joked.


    Li Shimin is helpless for a while. It''s obviously that you don''t obey the rules when playing chess. Li Gaoming also smiled and walked to the empress changsun.


    Seeing that Li Chengqian came steadily, empress Chang sun was stunned immediately and said in a trembling voice: clever! Your legs... "


    Li Shimin saw the empress''s gaffe. It was only then that he noticed the difference between Li Chengqian. He had felt a little strange before. It was only then that he found that Li Chengqian''s walking had returned to normal.


    "Gao Ming, what''s going on?" he knew that Li Chengqian was just going out of the palace, and he recovered from his leg disease when he came back.


    "Clever, which miracle doctor healed my son''s leg. I will give you a big reward!" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    When Li Chengqian was a child, his legs and feet were normal. He only suffered from leg disease after the accident. But Li Chengqian is now the crown prince. How can a disabled person be the future emperor? Therefore, Li Chengqian has always been criticized and suffered great pressure. Even his behavior has become a little perverse.


    But which father didn''t want his child to be healthy and healthy. Seeing that Li Chengqian suddenly returned to normal walking, he couldn''t help but feel happy.


    Li Chengqian said with a bitter smile, "my father and mother misunderstood. The child''s leg disease didn''t recover."


    "Then why did you suddenly walk normally!" empress Chang sun pulled Li Chengqian aside with red eyes.


    "That''s because the child has the shoes given by Merton," Li Chengqian showed the mystery by looking at the boots.


    The common inner heightening shoes from later generations have perfectly solved Li Chengqian''s problem.


    "Unexpectedly!" Li Shimin''s mood fluctuated, and he couldn''t help feeling a little sorry. How nice it would be if his child''s legs could recover.


    "At least it''s good that the wise can walk normally now!" said the eldest grandson.


    "So the Mohists are really my lucky generals. They not only sent me printing, but also covered up the clever leg diseases." Li Shimin said happily.


    Empress changsun pitifully pulled Li Chengqian down and asked him about his every bit in the ink house.


    "Tianzhu numbers, multiplication formula?" Li Shimin looked carefully at the memorial handed over by Li Chengqian and nodded when he saw the excitement.


    Tianzhu is not far from the Tang Dynasty. In the Sui Dynasty, Tianzhu people were officials in the dynasty. Li Shimin also heard about Tianzhu numbers, but he didn''t expect that Tianzhu numbers would develop in the hands of Mohism.


    "Good, good!" Li Shimin nodded repeatedly.


    "Gao Ming, since you have learned these calculations first, you will teach these new calculations to your imperial brothers on your behalf!" Li Shimin ordered.


    "Yes, father!" said Li Chengqian.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. He found that since Li Chengqian returned to normal walking, the whole person''s bearing has become atmospheric.


    Out of Chengde hall, Li Chengqian couldn''t help but breathe a sigh. It turned out that because of his leg disease, the crown prince''s position was not guaranteed, and the pressure he was under could be imagined. After today, his burden on himself has disappeared.


    Restoring normal walking is only the first step. More importantly, what Merton said to him before leaving gave him great hope.


    "In ancient times, once people got sick, they were resigned to fate. Up to now, there are countless prescriptions for various diseases in the lobby. It turned out that some incurable diseases can be easily cured. Medicine is not developed. Maybe after a few years, your leg disease can be easily cured."


    "This time may be a hundred years! But don''t worry. There is a miracle doctor in Mojia village, who is a descendant of Hua Tuo, who specializes in treating trauma. The next plan of Mojia village is to concentrate some excellent orthopedic doctors to study how to cure bone injuries. This time may be shorter. Maybe it can be effective in ten or eight years. Even if it is not good, it can help future generations Take benefits. "


    Chengqian was suddenly enlightened and excited.


    Yes! In his position, it is not a problem to summon many excellent doctors. He decided to help Mojia village catalyze this process, and he can''t walk now. If medical development in the future, what if his leg disease can be cured? Besides, he can afford to wait for ten or eight years.


    Merton didn''t know that his words made doctors have a great development. Soon, opposite the ink technology exhibition next to the Imperial College, a large-scale medical school opened, which was gradually called the holy land of doctors.

 Chapter 62

    In February, the Dragon looked up.


    Although the holiday of Datang is once every ten days, in addition to these, there are many holidays. New Year''s Eve, Lantern Festival, Mid Autumn Festival, cold food, Dragon Boat Festival and all kinds of holidays are no less than those on weekends and all kinds of holidays in future generations.


    The second day of February is also a legal holiday of the Tang Dynasty. It takes two days off. On this day, people in Chang''an city are boiling because the Mohist ink technology exhibition is about to open.


    The Mohist ink art exhibition, which has been continuously publicized by the Mohist village, has long been full of wind and rain. Whether it''s small hole imaging, teenagers pulling thousands of pounds, or the secret technique of live fish worth thousands of gold, it will be announced soon, which has greatly attracted the citizens of Chang''an.


    There are no entertainment programs in this era. A place where adult men play is either a brothel or a gambling house. There have been so many strange things.


    The sun was just angry, and many people had gathered outside the ink technology exhibition.


    Those who came early were not in a hurry. They spent a few Wen on a steaming steamed stuffed bun and waited slowly. A newly opened restaurant next to the steamed stuffed bun shop has begun to be renovated.


    In the private room of the restaurant, Ziyi looked dissatisfied at the sea of people outside the window. Here, you can just see the whole audience of ink technology exhibition.


    "It''s true, young master. Don''t tell him anything until today!" Purple pursed her lips.


    The fish master behind him looked kind and said, "the young master is also forced. This is the most important opportunity to publicize Mojia village. If something goes wrong, it will fall short."


    "Wait here well, you won''t see everything in a while!" master fish comforted Ziyi, went downstairs to inspect his restaurant again, and tried to open today without any mistakes.


    "Fish master! Where''s Merton?" Li Gaoming, no, Li Chengqian led several people in!, See the fish master asked.


    At the beginning of the ink exhibition, Merton knew that there were many people, and specifically ordered Zu Mingjun and Li Gaoming to watch in this unopened restaurant, so as to avoid crowding.


    "The young master is preparing inside? He ordered, and the private room has been prepared for young master Li!" Master Yu smiled and called Li Chengqian in. At the moment, he didn''t know that Li Gaoming was the crown prince.


    Suddenly, the fish master suddenly looked at the people behind Li Gaoming. He knew everyone, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde, and his royal highness King Qin, who had personally made fish for him, that is, the Emperor Li Shimin.


    "Grass people..." the fish Master said in fear,


    "The emperor is making a private visit in micro clothes today. Don''t make a statement!" Qin Qiong came forward and stopped Master Yu''s salute.


    "Yes, yes!" the fish Master said repeatedly. He was looking at the similar faces of Li Chengqian and Li Shimin. He couldn''t help but be surprised. It turned out that today''s crown prince was polite in front of him.


    Master Yu took Li Shimin to a private room with the best view and bowed back.


    "What about the little catfish?" Li Shimin asked, looking curiously at the sea of people outside the window.


    "Not only is the little catfish gone, but even my smelly boy can''t find a figure. It''s estimated that she''s preparing!" Qin Qiong looked left and right and couldn''t see Qin Huaiyu.


    Just then, a gong woke up the crowd. Everyone couldn''t help but look at the high platform set up in the center in advance,


    Ink exhibition is about to begin!


    A young man in black walked slowly to the center of the platform and bowed to the people.


    "Welcome to the Mohist Ink Exhibition. I''m Merton!" Merton said slowly. His voice was not loud, but it could easily spread all over the venue.


    Merton had already considered the effect of sound amplification when the ink technology exhibition began to be built. Looking at many original loudspeakers like speakers in the audience, Merton showed a slight smile and the effect was good.


    "He is the Mohist family!" they exclaimed under the stand. They have heard a lot about the reputation of the Mohist family. Before, the Mohist family led the live fish secret technique to bring great wealth to the Mohist village. One person saved 5000 people, and five wins and one defeat made it into the Imperial college. Now the three poems of the Mohist family''s frontier fortress are still circulating in Chang''an city.


    They didn''t expect that mojiazi should be such a beautiful young man.


    "Is he mojiazi?"


    None of the five had seen Merton except Li Chengqian.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton curiously. The young man was tossing around Chang''an like a catfish, and made some new tricks from time to time, which was unexpected.


    "Back to my father, he is Merton!"


    Li Chengqian solemnly replied that Li Shimin can jokingly call Merton a little catfish. As a friend, of course, he can''t call him that.


    On the high platform, Merton looked around and said slowly, "a thousand years ago, the Mohist school was one of the most famous schools in the world, but now the Mohist school has not fallen to only one village. The Mohist school has reached the critical point of life and death."


    There are many people of insight under the stage, even Guozi supervisor, and many people come to see the excitement. Hearing the speech, they can''t help but sigh. It''s really puzzling that the Mohist school, once famous for a while, has fallen down.


    "If Mohism does not change, it will inevitably be lost in history and become a record in historical books. However, I think the decline of Mohism does not complain about heaven and earth, but lies in Mohism''s own closeness and conservatism and its inability to keep up with the times."


    Many of the Mohist children who maintain order around them can''t help feeling dejected. The previous Mohist school once had a strict confidentiality system. Once it was found that it would be a felony to divulge the secret skills of Mohist school.


    "Today''s Mohist school is no longer closed and conservative, but wants reform and opening up. It no longer cherishes the secret skills of Mohist school, but shares them with the world. Next, please see the first secret skill of Mohist school, pinhole imaging!"


    When Merton looked back, a huge black cloth in the southeast slowly pulled up, and the whole ink technology exhibition suddenly became dark. A small hole in the center of the huge cloth revealed a ray of sunshine, which was clearly sprinkled on a white cloth in the rear, and a clear figure appeared in the small hole.


    "Wow!"


    The audience was amazed.


    Behind the black cloth, Qin Huaiyu and the three are happily changing all kinds of silhouettes. At first, there are all kinds of portraits, and then there are all kinds of animals. Each change can arouse the surprised voice of the whole audience.


    Soon the sun rose a little, and the performance of small hole imaging ended. This is why Merton chose to start the ink technology exhibition at this time, because only the sun at this moment is the most suitable.


    "This ink technology exhibition will be on display for three days. Pinhole imaging will be open to the outside world. Everyone has the opportunity to understand the secret of pinhole imaging."


    As soon as Merton said this, the audience cheered.


    "It seems that this little catfish is really coming!" Li Shimin sighed in the box.


    "Such a big change, I''m afraid, is extremely difficult. The Mohist school can inherit it. If it loses, the Mohist school will disappear." Cheng Yaojin said sharply.


    All the pressure was concentrated on such a young man, and everyone focused on the young man who supported himself on the high platform.

 Chapter 63

    "This is the secret of light and shadow. The Mohist school only dabbled in some fur. Let me tell you a little common sense. If you have the opportunity to catch fish by the river and see the fish passing by, your harpoon must be under the fish to tie the fish accurately, because the fish you see is not in that position, just like the chopsticks in the bowl , this is the refraction of light. "


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, there was an uproar.


    "Ah! No wonder I can''t get a fish every time. I thought it was the fish that ran away in advance. It turned out that I missed the direction."


    "Well, this is really true. An old fisherman told me how to catch fish, but he only knew how to do it, but he couldn''t say why."


    "Mozi really has a set."


    "If I had known this, I would have caught a lot of fish last time!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone in the audience talked, some regretted and some nodded.


    Li Shimin looked at the broken chopsticks in the bowl in front of him and curiously picked them up and put them down!


    "We haven''t noticed such a simple thing," Li Shimin said with a smile.


    "Light and shadow are really wonderful." Qin Qiong nodded.


    They have all caught fish and know the secret of catching fish. Now Merton can''t help but suddenly see the light.


    Merton reached out and the people below slowly quieted down.


    "There is a man who has great ambition and infinite power. He wants to follow the example of overlord carrying tripod and lifting thousands of kilograms of heavy objects. He is Qin Huaiyu!"


    Merton reached out and saw a huge figure in the light and shadow imaged by the small hole. His muscles could feel his strength even across time.


    People can''t help but look forward to it. Is it really the reincarnation of the overlord with a thousand pounds of power.


    At this time, the curtain of small hole imaging fell slowly, and a strong young man appeared behind the curtain.


    "Eh!"


    They thought they were a strong man with a strong back and a strong waist. They didn''t expect that he was really an ordinary young man. Although he was also strong, no one believed that he could carry the giant tripod forward.


    "Your Majesty is amused by the dog''s nonsense!" Qin Qiong and Hao Ran said.


    As a father, of course, he knew his son''s ability. It was impossible to carry a huge tripod weighing a thousand kilograms, but Qin Huaiyu firmly said that he had already carried it.


    "Uncle Bao, don''t make a decision so early, and let''s see how they get around!" Li Shimin looked out of the window and smiled at the corners of his mouth. As a military, he certainly knew where the power limit of the human body was. The most powerful Hercules in the army didn''t dare to say that he could lift a thousand jin tripod.


    "Wow!" another curtain fell, and a huge tripod appeared in front of the people.


    "This is a thousand jin tripod specially customized by Mojia village to Seiko workshop. Everyone believes in the reputation of Seiko workshop. If you don''t believe it, you can specially verify the weight of this tripod afterwards." Merton pointed to the three legged giant tripod and said.


    "Seiko workshop! It''s the largest iron workshop in Chang''an City and has a good reputation."


    Some people know the origin of Seiko workshop and know that Seiko workshop always pays attention to its reputation. It is impossible to lie for Mojia village in this matter.


    "If it is produced by Seiko workshop, it must weigh a thousand kilograms."


    At the invitation of Merton, a strong man came forward and suddenly pushed the tripod, but the tripod did not move.


    "Definitely more than a thousand catties!" the strong man shook his head. If there were a thousand catties, he would be able to push it.


    "The net weight of this tripod is 1500 Jin!" Merton burst out a figure that made everyone in an uproar.


    "Playing is getting bigger and bigger!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the bottom with great interest.


    Qin Qiong couldn''t help laughing bitterly, but seeing Qin Huaiyu''s indifferent expression at the bottom, she was a little relieved, but she was still in a good mood.


    "Of course, it is impossible for a man to lift him up, even if the overlord is alive. I believe you must not believe that such a young man can lift him up with one hand." Merton said the doubts in everyone''s heart.


    The audience couldn''t help nodding. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding. 1500 kg is really a force that can''t be borne by human beings.


    "In fact, what you think is right. The young man really can''t lift the heavy tripod." Merton broke out a fact that made the whole audience an uproar. "However, with the help of the secret skills of Mohism, a young man can easily lift the heavy tripod." Merton stretched out his hand and pushed a huge support to the side of the giant tripod. Under the support, rows of pulley blocks were fixed, As for the pulley block, Merton did not hide it, but directly showed it to everyone.


    After all, this is something already recorded in the Mohist Sutra, and this is a time to publicize Mohism. If the pulley block can be spread in time, it will also be a great publicity for Mohism.


    Another meal of the pulley block fixed the tripod, and the other end was caught by Qin Huaiyu. Everyone could not help but hold their breath and look at the disproportionate teenagers and giant tripods.


    Qin Qiong''s nervous palm is sweating. He can''t believe that such a wheel can help Qin Huaiyu lift the giant tripod forward.


    "When you pull up the mountain, you will be unparalleled! When times are bad, you will never die..."


    In Merton''s melodious singing, Qin Huaiyu slowly exerted his strength, and his muscles were tight. The force of one track was gradually multiplied by the addition of pulley block and transmitted to the tripod.


    "Wow!"


    In everyone''s amazement, the tripod slowly left the ground.


    One foot!


    Two feet!


    Three feet!


    Finally, it rises directly to seven feet until it reaches the top of the support!


    Li Shimin opened his mouth in surprise! Qin Qiong looked unbelievable when she really raised it.


    "Ten, nine, eight, seven...!" Merton adopted the countdown common in later generations, and the atmosphere at the scene immediately became hot.


    "... three two one!" in the neat countdown of the whole audience, Qin Huaiyu insisted on ten counts, loosened the handle in his hand, and the giant tripod fell down in three innings.


    "Boom!"


    A loud voice spread throughout the audience.


    This time, no one doubted the weight of the tripod. Because of gravity, the tripod directly sank to the ground more than a foot.


    "Yeah!" Qin Huaiyu waved his fist excitedly.


    The warm atmosphere of the whole audience made him enjoy it and make his blood boil.


    "Please remember, this is a boy like a overlord alive! Qin Huaiyu!" Merton shouted.


    "Reincarnation of overlord!"


    "Reincarnation of overlord!"


    The audience cheered. They were shocked by the scene of the giant tripod falling in the third inning. The heavy roar shocked everyone''s ears.


    "This smelly boy!" Qin Qiong looked at her child on the court and knew that most of the credit for all this was the so-called wheel, but she couldn''t help being proud.


    After all, at this moment, he saw from his son''s eyes the qualification of a general, an absolutely confident confidence.

 Chapter 64

    A teenager, a huge tripod, the shock caused by this disproportionate control is very strong. Although everyone present vaguely knows that the pulley block plays a role, only Merton understands the principle.


    When the roaring tripod fell heavily, the gluttonous pattern engraved on the tripod was particularly ferocious, which added a bit of mysterious atmosphere.


    The shock was not calm in the hearts of the people for a long time. Then, the performance of Chumo and Yuchi Baolin talking across the city wall seemed a little dull, but there were bursts of applause.


    Merton came forward and continued to host: "in the past, the Mojia village was poor and backward, closed and self-contained, and even cherished. As a result, the Mojia village has become the poorest village in the whole Chang''an area."


    Merton''s self darkness caused everyone a kind laugh. They have heard about the history of Mojia village and know how down-to-earth the previous Mojia village was.


    "Hey, how dare you say that!" Cheng Yaojin laughed and said.


    Li Shimin can''t help smiling. It can be said that the secret skills of Mohism inherited for thousands of years are cherished by ourselves. Mohist Zi''s heart is really big.


    "And today''s Mojia village is putting aside the past, reforming and innovating, just like our slogan, keeping pace with the times, developing and innovating! We welcome anyone to come to Mojia village, welcome any cooperation among all schools of thought, and throw away the old ideas that did not adapt to the new era of the Tang Dynasty. This is a new era. A magnificent prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty is coming and can not keep up with this era All the fellers will be eliminated, "Merton said excitedly.


    "The new era, the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Shimin couldn''t help feeling excited. He has been working hard all these years and wants to devote himself to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. In the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty, even the word he dared not think of was shouted out by a teenager.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but feel gratified. He didn''t expect that the Mo family was so optimistic about his rule. He couldn''t help feeling like a confidant.


    Merton continued: "however, there are still villages poorer than Mojia village in the whole Tang Dynasty, and even many people still don''t have enough to eat. It seems that it will take a long time to wait for the coming of the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin was silent for a while. Of course, he knew the situation under his rule. There were many poor places, and the Treasury was not full. All ethnic groups on the external grassland were ready to move. Tubo tuhun Valley had always coveted the Tang Dynasty.


    "The Mohists are young and ignorant. Please forgive your majesty for their nonsense!" Qin Qiong quickly apologized. He was afraid that Merton''s shocking words would offend your majesty.


    "Father! Merton, he''s just outspoken. He doesn''t mean anything else." Li Chengqian also hurriedly helped Merton speak.


    "What are you flustered about? Can''t I accommodate someone who tells the truth?" Li Shimin pretended to be angry and said. But his heart was a little unhappy. As the saying goes, beating people doesn''t hit the face, swearing doesn''t expose it. Merton exposed it in front of Li Shimin.


    However, Merton did not know that he had been missed by the most powerful people in the world. He still said on the high platform: "the Tang Dynasty is based on agriculture. As the saying goes, no agriculture is unstable. The Mohists cooperated with the farmers and successfully developed the latest farming tool - Quyuan plow."


    At this time, Chumo and Yuchi Baolin jointly carry a new plow. Compared with the traditional plow, this plow is smaller, and the front handle is more curved.


    Chumo and Yuchi Baolin guard Qu Yuanli like a baby. They didn''t get the program that shocked the audience. After seeing Qu Yuanli, they didn''t give up the opportunity.


    Joke, although they are dandies, they also know that farming and mulberry is the foundation of the country, and know the power of this new plow. This is an opportunity that may be remembered in history. How can they miss it.


    "This new type of curved shaft plow can be operated by one person and one cow. The curved plowshare can turn the soil underground, realize deep and careful cultivation, increase grain production, save manpower and material resources and reclaim more wasteland."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole audience was boiling. Most of them had their own land outside the city. Of course, they could hear the advantages of this new plow.


    Li Shimin leaps to the window and stares at Chumo''s Quyuan plow. After the chaos in the late Sui Dynasty, the population of the Tang Dynasty has decreased sharply, resulting in a lot of barren fields. If this Quyuan plow really has such an effect, the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty can come at least 20 years ahead of schedule.


    "Can you really plough the fields one by one?" asked a hostage under the stage.


    "Of course, Mojia village has bought 100 mu of land outside Nancheng gate and invited Lord Su, the big Si Nong, to personally verify the effectiveness of Quyuan plow. Now let''s invite Lord Su to the stage."


    Su Lingnong, the big farmer, came to the stage slowly and stroked the Qu Yuan plow in front of the stage with a happy face. When he was invited by Merton to verify the Qu Yuan plow yesterday, he didn''t believe it, but the facts of yesterday made him happy and happy. Even if Merton pulled him as a witness today, there was no complaint. With this new type of pear cultivation, how many people can he feed, That''s the blessing of Datang!


    "Ah! It''s really Lord Su!"


    There was a cry of surprise under the stage.


    Although Su Lingnong is a big farmer, he often wanders around the fields around Chang''an. Many people know him.


    "I can prove that this new type of pear cultivation can indeed be cultivated by one person and one cow. It is simple and light, cheap, easy to turn around, and plough deeper than the traditional pear cultivation, about 50% faster." Su Lingnong''s words completely confirmed the authenticity of Quyuan plow.


    "This little catfish is very capable. He even invited Su Lingnong, an old-fashioned man, to be his witness." Li Shimin said with some taste. He was extremely dissatisfied with Merton''s behavior of using public tools for private use.


    "Your Majesty doesn''t know. The young master invited Lord Su in person after paying the drawings of Qu Yuanli." Master Yu said respectfully behind him.


    "Hahaha! That''s right. Only in this way can su Lingnong, an old stereotype, give up his face." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. As long as Su Lingnong had the drawing of Qu Yuan plow, with his temperament, the whole Tang Dynasty would soon have this new type of pear cultivation, which was the blessing of the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    But Su Lingnong didn''t finish what he said. He continued, "not only that, I saw a new columbine in the south of the city that can sow 600 mu a day. You won''t hide your privacy, mojiazi!"


    "When do you sow 600 mu a day?"


    The audience did not expect that there were many surprises, not only new farming tools, but also new sowing tools.


    "It''s more than 600 mu a day! It''s not that you can sow seeds in many fields. Although the harvest is meager, it can''t stand much land!"


    Li Shimin was even more breathless and stared at the two columbine carts carried up by Qin Huaiyu.


    After Qin Huaiyu came up, it immediately aroused the cheers of the whole audience. After all, Qin Huaiyu''s performance just now was so shocking!


    The Columbine is not heavy. Qin Huaiyu even holds up a columbine with one hand, which makes many people scream. This frenzied atmosphere makes Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin jealous. Qin Huaiyu doesn''t cry anymore until he is kicked by Su Lingnong. He quickly puts the two columbines down and stands aside with Chumo.


    Some of the Columbine cars reconstructed in Mojia village draw lessons from the modern planters of later generations. The small columbine car has only three legs, which is simple, light and easy to operate. The large columbine cart not only increases the number of columbine legs to six, but also adds wheels for planting at a uniform speed at the back, which is convenient for sowing at a uniform speed.


    "The small columbine cart is mo Nong No. 1. It is easy to operate. Every family can operate it. It doesn''t even need cattle power. Four adults can quickly sow at least 200 mu a day. This large columbine cart, Mo Nong No. 2, must be driven by cattle and horses. It''s no problem to sow 600 mu a day. Moreover, it has its own runner behind it, which can sow seeds on the ground at a uniform speed, which is more reasonable Farming.


    "Quyuanli 300 Wen a pair, Menon No. 1 columbine 100 Wen, Menon No. 2 300 Wen, welcome to order." Merton even advertised at this time.


    "This black sheep!"


    Su Lingnong looked at Merton strangely. He didn''t expect that Merton contributed such heavy weapons to sell money. If he gave them to the emperor, he would not be able to be promoted to the rank. Now such heavy military weapons are stained with the smell of copper, and he can no longer be rewarded by the Emperor.


    "He used it to sell money!"


    Li Shimin looked unbelievably at Merton''s efforts to sell Quyuan plow and columbine. He was still trying to reward the Mohists. Now, everything is saved.


    Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others also hate iron and don''t become steel. Looking at this silly boy, ordinary people fight all their lives for a little title, but he abandoned the readily available wealth and wealth.


    Chengqian looked as if he didn''t know the bad friend, and it was not worth it for Merton in his heart.


    "Doesn''t he know the value of Qu Yuan plow?" Li Shimin asked the fish master in the back.


    Master Yu smiled bitterly and said, "even if the young master doesn''t know, the grass people also know the value of these treasures. At that time, we also advised the young master, but the young master said that a penny forced the hero down. Qu Yuanli and columbine are just a penny that can solve the dilemma of Mojia village, and the title doesn''t change money, so they can''t support 5000 people in Mojia village."


    Mojia village is not good at arable land and is good at work. Making these agricultural tools just gives full play to the advantages of Mojia village and brings a steady stream of income to Mojia village.


    For a moment, everyone in the box became silent and looked at Merton with an inexplicable color. There are many capable people and moral people in this world, but few can refuse high officials and high salaries.


    The ink family in front of us is one of them. Maybe Merton''s behavior is very stupid, but it''s cute and admirable.


    "This little catfish!" inexplicable pride rose in Li Shimin''s heart.

 Chapter 65

    The biggest reason why the Tang Dynasty attaches importance to agriculture and suppresses business and takes agriculture and mulberry as the foundation of the country is that the grain output in this era is too low, and the ability to resist natural disasters can be weak. A slight fluctuation in heaven can lead to a large-scale reduction of grain production, or even a collapse of grain harvest.


    Nongsang based was a national policy unswervingly pursued by that dynasty. Without carriages, you can walk, without silk and linen, but without food, you can only starve.


    Businessmen have always been hated by people. They don''t work in production, but they can earn a lot of profits. What''s more, they hoard strange things and bid up prices, which has always been disliked by rulers.


    However, selling Quyuan plows and columbine in Mojia village can not find any problems, because this commercial behavior not only does not damage the foundation of agriculture and mulberry, but also effectively promotes the development of agriculture.


    "The child?"


    Qin Qiong looked kind, and Merton didn''t let him down.


    It turned out that when Merton wrote to Li Shimin and asked the Mojia village to do business instead of being cheap, Qin Qiong was also worried that the child was on a wrong path. Now it seems that this decision is very correct.


    Li Shimin''s face showed a satisfied expression. Merton, a small catfish, tossed a lot of good things and surprised him again and again.


    Even Li Chengqian has a proud look. As a friend, seeing Merton''s doing so, he can''t help feeling sharing weal and woe.


    "This silly boy has made a good friend!" Yuchi Jingde looked at Merton beside his son with satisfaction. His own son knew that he would suffer a loss when he was with those fine and oily dandies in Chang''an City, but he could not rest assured when he was with Merton.


    "Three hundred Wen is not expensive!"


    The audience could not help but think that the average selling price of the old-fashioned pear cultivation is about 400 Wen, while the Quyuan plow is more advanced, saving manpower and material resources. At the same time, it can also cultivate deeply and carefully. Not to mention that with an additional 300 Wen, you can buy a cart that can sow 600 mu a day.


    After Merton announced that all quyuanli cars produced by Mojia village are guaranteed for three years, people can''t help but be moved.


    Everyone is excited in the ink technology exhibition, and Kong Yingda and a group of doctoral assistants in the Imperial College next to him will pay close attention to the process of the ink technology exhibition.


    After all, Mohism is one of the hundreds of schools of thought for thousands of years. As the holy land of Confucianism, they certainly have to pay close attention to it.


    "Hum! Is Mohism reduced to juggling for a living?" Liu Yinian couldn''t help disdaining when he heard the messenger say that Mohist Zi used a pulley to pull up a huge tripod.


    Other doctors also laughed. It turned out that the Mohist school had been reduced to this place. Thanks to them, they were still in full battle readiness?


    "Report!" then a messenger came running!


    "Let''s give a toast to the Lord. The mojiazi shows the new ploughing pear and columbine cart!"


    When the messenger explained the advantages of Quyuan plow and the new columbine, everyone was shocked.


    As great Confucians, they certainly know the importance of Nongsang and the importance of these new agricultural tools.


    "I didn''t expect that the MOH family really made something out of the drum!" Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, said with a long sigh.


    "Could it be that the Mo family practiced fraud!" Liu Yinian did not believe.


    "Impossible?" Kong Yingda shook his head. "Su Lingnong''s stubborn eyes can''t mix sand. If he hadn''t verified it himself, he wouldn''t have come out to testify."


    The Imperial College was silent. They didn''t believe that the little catfish jumping up and down under their hands had such an amazing move.


    Ink technology exhibition.


    "I believe everyone is thinking about how many fields can be reclaimed and how much food can be increased this year!" Merton said with a smile.


    The audience was moved by the words and couldn''t help laughing in a low voice.


    "But are you satisfied?" Murton suddenly shouted.


    Everyone was stunned. What if they were not satisfied? It''s not easy to let the whole family eat.


    "I said before that if the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty is coming, if everyone can only eat enough, how can it be regarded as a prosperous age?" Merton shook his head.


    "Er, ER!" everyone was stunned. It was not a prosperous age. How could it be?


    Li Shimin also looked at Merton in amazement, turned to the fish master and asked, "the Mohist village has bought so much food, but it''s not enough."


    Master Yu was not surprised at all. Li Shimin nodded and said, "the stock of Mojia village is enough for the whole village to eat for a year, but our young master said that this is the solution to food and clothing, which is far from a well-off society!"


    "Well off?" Cheng Yaojin listened to the new word suspiciously.


    Li Chengqian explained in a loud voice: "if you go back to the Duke of Lu, the word well-off already exists. In the book of songs, Daya ¡¤ people''s labor, it is said:" the people also work, and you can be well-off¡°


    At the same time, it is also recorded in the book of rites ¡¤ ritual transportation that "today''s Avenue is hidden, and the world is home. Each person is close to his relatives, each son is his son, and the goods are his own. Adults and (aristocratic hereditary) regard rites as rites, and the city guogouchi is solid. Rites and righteousness regard discipline, upright monarchs and officials, Benedict father and son, make friends with brothers and sisters, establish systems, and establish (set) fields... Is a well-off society¡°


    Li Chengqian gave a voice to explain the origin of the word well-off, smiled and said, "brother Mo''s well-off probably refers to this kind of stable and rich life!"


    "Prince, your highness is a talented person!" Master Yu said respectfully.


    "Oh! It was mentioned in the hadith. It seems that I was right to throw this little catfish to the Imperial College." Li Shimin had to smile.


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help showing his big teeth when he was killed! Laugh, but they know all kinds of deeds of Mozi in the Imperial College.


    "I know what is well-off!" Su Lingnong directly interrupted Merton to publicize his concept of well-off and said, "what do you say to achieve the well-off you say.


    The audience burst into laughter.


    Morton was embarrassed and said with a smile: "the boy thinks that the minimum standard of well-off is that everyone can eat meat every day!"


    "Eat meat!"


    There was an uproar.


    You know, it''s a rich family now. We don''t eat meat every day. We are lucky to eat meat every new year''s festival. It''s hard to see a little oily smell at ordinary times.


    Eating a good meal of meat is beyond everyone''s reach, let alone eating meat every day.


    In this era, cattle and horses are in a strategic position. They will go to jail if they eat them. Pork is fishy. Most of them can eat very little, which leads to the high price of meat. Otherwise, how could Mojia village create so much wealth in just a few months with the secret skills of live fish.


    "How dare you say that?" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise. Of course, he knew how valuable it was to eat meat.


    "The Mohist village has become so rich?" Li Shimin looked at Master Yu unkindly. If the Mohist village is so rich and asks to do business, it will be a crime of bullying the king.


    "Your Majesty, the Mojia village has just been lifted out of poverty, but more than two months!" the fish master hurriedly said.


    "What''s the spirit of the Mo family? Do you want the whole world to eat fish!" Li Shimin said with a little dissatisfaction.


    In his opinion, the method of artificial fish farming, even if it is fully promoted in Datang, is a drop in the bucket.


    "The grass people are not only responsible for the secret skills of living fish and artificial fish culture, but they do not involve anything else. However, according to the internal circulation of Mojia village, the young master has provided a new secret skill, which has been successfully tested, and it is expected that everyone in Mojia Village can eat meat by the end of the year." the fish master gritted his teeth and said.


    Although he didn''t know what the young master''s confidence was, according to the words of others, he also knew that the experiment in Mojia village had been successful. Now he had to bite his teeth and hold on. Everything depends on the young master, and the young master never let them down.


    "Maybe everyone thinks it''s impossible, but that''s the magic of ink technology. Explore and innovate to make the impossible possible!" Merton roared.


    Morton reaches out his hand. Qin Huaiyu and Chumo Wei Chi Baolin each carry a cage that is more than one person tall and made of black cloth.


    Three cages are placed in the middle of the high platform, and everyone is staring at the three cages. Is this the secret skill that Mojia village says can make everyone eat meat every day.


    With a wave of his hand, the black cloth of the three cages fell slowly, revealing the dense Plush things inside.


    "It''s impossible?"


    Su Lingnong suddenly stood up and exclaimed.


    "It''s impossible?"


    Li Shimin rushed to the window again and was shocked.


    Everyone in the audience looked incredible.


    This group of fluffy things are the chicks of chickens, ducks and geese. Each cage is divided into more than ten layers, and each layer is filled with dense cubs. Three familiar calls filled the audience.


    "How did he do it?" everyone exclaimed.


    You know, hens hatch chicks after autumn. Now it''s just after the first month. It''s cold. Hens don''t want to hatch chicks at all, and even if hens are willing to hatch chicks, they can''t hatch in this weather.


    "This is the magic of ink technology, making the impossible possible?" Merton said with a smile.


    "How did you do it? At this time, hens can''t hatch chickens." Su Lingnong was shocked and went on stage again to verify the full three cages of cubs.


    Soon he gave up, because there were three kinds of chickens, ducks and geese. Did these three kinds of poultry change their nature at the same time and can hatch their young in winter.


    "Are the chickens, ducks and geese in Mojia village different and gifted!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the three cages of chickens, ducks and geese like a monster and asked the fish master.


    "If you return to the Duke of Lu! As far as I know, the chickens, ducks and geese in Mojia village are not hatched in winter." the fish master replied with a bitter smile.


    "What''s going on? Are people hatched and kept warm in the quilt every day?" Yuchi Jingde said with a rare humor and a laugh.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling! Suddenly he saw the fish master''s solemn expression, suddenly stunned and asked unimaginably.


    "Is it really human hatching?"


    "Of course, people didn''t warm up in the quilt!" Merton answered Li Shimin''s question for the fish master on the high platform.


    "But the Mojia village has mastered the artificial incubation technology." when the word fell, everyone was surprised.

 Chapter 66

    "From then on, as long as there are enough eggs and duck eggs, we can hatch enough chickens, ducks and geese. Even we can count the time to hatch chickens and ducks to maximize our interests.


    For example, we can hatch chicks in June and raise chicks for six months, which is just enough to kill chickens during the new year. Not only do we not worry about sales, but also the price can be much higher.


    We can even hatch chickens, ducks and geese in advance and let them start laying eggs just when the weather is warm, so that we can make you have endless eggs and ducks all year round. "


    Merton''s voice is very light, depicting a beautiful scene that people can''t help but indulge in.


    At the foot of a mountain, there is an ordinary family. Men and women work. Men use Qu Yuan plow to reclaim a large number of fields. Women spin and weave cloth at home. There are flocks of chickens, ducks and geese at home. The children at home are white and fat, around their knees.


    What a wonderful picture it is! Men farming and women weaving have a rich life. It is an ideal country that countless people dream of. However, this ideal country was once very far away, but after today''s ink technology exhibition, people suddenly find that it seems to be in front of them.


    Li Shimin''s eyes narrowed slightly, but his heart was quite restless. The waves fluctuated, and he couldn''t help breathing quickly.


    That kind of life spread to every corner of Datang, that is the prosperous age of Datang! And it is expected to reach the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty in its own hands., How can we not let Li Shimin, who has been pursuing the holy name, be full of passion.


    "The Mohist school is great!" Cheng Yaojin said with an unabashed grin. He is also a famous general in the world. Of course, he knows how hard the people''s life is. Artificial incubation technology can benefit all people.


    Qin Qiong nodded with satisfaction. Merton is his nephew. He took care of it. Fortunately, Merton didn''t disappoint him, and his son also participated in it. One of the contributions is indispensable.


    Yuchi Jingde looked at Yuchi Baolin in the stands with a silly smile. His silly son finally made a good friend. When the dandies in Chang''an City were walking their horses and fighting, his son had already left them far away. It seems that his son has made Yiyou.


    Li Chengqian also looked excited. If he hadn''t been educated by the crown prince for many years, he would have rushed to the stage to celebrate with Merton. They were all his friends! They are all enjoying the same attention, but they are extremely oppressed here.


    On the high platform, Su Lingnong looked at these plush little lives. Those chirping voices were comparable to peerless famous songs in his ears.


    He felt that he was the happiest big farmer. The fishery had the method of artificial breeding, the agriculture had the Quyuan plow and the new columbine, and the poultry industry had the technology of artificial incubation.


    It can be expected that since then, a large number of fields have been reclaimed, fishermen and fisheries have had a good harvest, and chickens and ducks flock to every household. All these changes were achieved when he took office as a big farmer.


    However, all this was not over. Merton threw another heavy bomb.


    "Outside Nancheng gate, there are 100 mu of land being ploughed with Qu Yuan plow. You are welcome to watch. The Mohists will continue to cooperate with farmers as experimental fields, continue to screen improved varieties, improve agricultural experiments and increase grain output. Over time, I believe that the output of one mu of land will reach four loads. Five loads, or even six loads, in the future Can you? "


    In this era, the grain output is very low. If there can be three loads of output per mu of land, it is a high yield, five loads and six loads. That''s something you can''t even think of.


    If Merton had started talking before, people might think that Merton was talking big, but after witnessing a miracle in the Mojia village, everyone had a strange feeling that these seemingly impossible things seemed impossible in the hands of Mojia Zi.


    In the Imperial College.


    Kong Yingda and others were silent. They all lowered their heads and chewed two words one after another.


    "Well off!"


    They are familiar with the words that have appeared in the book of songs and the book of rites. They even read them once a day.


    "Now that the main road is hidden, the world is home. Each person is close to his relatives, each son is his son, and the goods are his own. People''s life and history are regarded as rites, and the city''s Guo, Gou and Chi are regarded as solid. Rites and righteousness are regarded as discipline, with upright monarchs and officials, Benedict father and son, good brothers, and couples. Systems are established to establish the field, with virtuous and brave knowledge, and merit as his own. Therefore, the purpose is to work, and the army starts from this. Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, Cheng Wang, and Duke of Zhou are from the beginning This is also their choice. None of the Six Gentlemen is not sincere in etiquette. They write about their righteousness and their faith. They have written about their mistakes. They tell the people that there is a common practice. If they do not follow this, they will go away, and everyone will think it a disaster. It is a well-off society¡°


    Kong Yingda silently read the book of rites once. He was filled with emotion that a Confucian classic word was used by Mohists and given a unique standard - eating meat.


    In an instant, the word "well-off" suddenly became specific, as if it was born like this. A family who eats meat every day has indeed reached a well-off society.


    However, the well-off pursued by Confucianism is more reflected in the spiritual level, while Mohism directly embodies the well-off in the living standard.


    No one laughed at the vulgarity of the goal of eating meat, because there were too many people who couldn''t eat meat in the Tang Dynasty. What''s more, even the emperor pretended to eat green vegetables for a few days every disaster year, indicating that he would tide over the difficulties with the world.


    Eating meat is indeed a luxury in Datang. During the Chinese new year, each family in Mojia village received four or five kilograms of pork. Many villagers cried when they went back, because it was the most prosperous year for them, and more families even had a full meal, let alone meat.


    "Hum! It seems that the MOH family has been living a good life for several days. It''s almost gone to heaven. He only ate meat in the MOH family for a few days!" Liu Yinian said sarcastically.


    However, when the messenger hesitated to say that Mojia village had developed artificial incubation technology, Liu Yinian suddenly flashed like a slap in the face.


    With artificial incubation technology, it can be predicted that Mojia village will be full of chickens and ducks. Not to mention eating meat, it''s not impossible to eat a chicken every meal!


    Especially when the messenger said that Mojia village was about to set up an experimental field and would develop improved varieties with a yield of six cattles per mu, Liu Yinian could no longer refute Merton, because Merton had worked miracles many times.


    "Let''s go to the ink exhibition!" Kong Yingda suddenly got up and made up his mind.


    "Wine offering adults!" all the Ph.D. teaching assistants were surprised and looked at Kong Yingda in disbelief.


    "Why not?" Kong Yingda frowned.


    The doctors were embarrassed and asked them to lower their heads to the ink technology exhibition, which really made them feel a little embarrassed.


    "Hum! Confucianism and Mohism do have their own views, which is also a dispute of ideas, but if we are indifferent to the magic skills that can create the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, it will be our dereliction of duty." Kong Yingda''s words made everyone blush and ashamed.


    "The lesson learned by the wine worship Lord is that we are looking at each other." Shen Hongcai took a deep breath, took the lead in getting up and left with Kong Yingda.


    The doctors also got up one after another and followed Kong Yingda.


    Liu Yinian struggled for a while, but got up and followed him. He was even more jealous of Merton. Merton humiliated him today.

 Chapter 67

    Zu Mingjun has been miserable these days. Since he told his family about his discovery of the parabola, he immediately caused a sensation in the Zu family.


    The elders of the ancestral family in Chang''an City were like a treasure. They pulled Zu Mingjun to study the parabola one after another. They didn''t close their eyes for two days. They even spread the news to Fan Yang''s hometown. It is certain that Zu Mingjun will still be in a dark place in the future.


    After all, the ancestral family has been declining for a long time. The glory of ancestral Chong Zhi''s discovery of PI has been consumed. If we can create brilliance on the parabola, the ancestral family will rise again in the next hundred years.


    Zu Mingjun got up after working hard every day. He suddenly thought that today was the ink technology exhibition. He quickly got up and rushed over.


    "It''s still late!" Zu Mingjun sighed when he heard the bustle in the ink technology exhibition. He knew that Merton had a lot of good things to show today, but he didn''t expect to miss them.


    He had made an appointment with Li Chengqian to watch in the restaurant. He was about to plunge into the fish master''s new restaurant. Suddenly, a dignified voice stopped him!


    "Zu Mingjun!" Shen Hongcai''s familiar voice sounded behind him.


    Shen Hongcai was the descendant of zuchong''s disciple. After the decline of the ancestral family, Shen Hongcai overcame all opinions and sent Zu Mingjun to the Imperial College. It can be said that he was the greatest benefactor of Zu Mingjun.


    Zu Mingjun turned his head stiffly and saw that Shen Hongcai and a group of doctoral assistants from the Imperial College were coming here. It was Kong Yingda who led the Imperial College''s wine offering.


    "I''ve seen you, Mr. Shen, and all of you." Zu Mingjun saluted one by one.


    When he learned that Zu Mingjun could have a private room in the new restaurant, Shen Hongcai couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. They were all dignified people. If they crowded with ordinary people, they would lose their identity and be able to watch in the private room, it would be the best of both worlds.


    When Master Yu heard the news, he immediately brightened his eyes when he heard that Zu Mingjun introduced him as a wine offering adult and doctors of the Imperial College.


    Just as the parents of later generations saw their son''s head teacher, they warmly welcomed Kong Yingda into the restaurant, arranged another private room with excellent vision, and asked people to bring up a group of snacks, fruit plates, tea and so on.


    "Gentlemen, if you need anything else, please tell me," said the fish master.


    Master Yu''s warm attitude made the people in the Imperial College feel much better. When Zu Mingjun saw a group of masters here, he couldn''t ask where fish Master Li Chengqian was, so he had to serve them with tea and water.


    However, Kong Yingda and others didn''t care about these exquisite snacks and tea at all. They gathered outside the window one after another.


    At the moment, outside the window, a group of Mozi children are carrying these three cages of poultry cubs away from the platform. Looking at the three cages of chickens, ducks and geese, Kong Yingda and others can''t help but open their eyes. Even if they have already been reported by the messenger, the shock they heard is different from what they saw with their own eyes.


    Take a look at the Quyuan plow and the three legged tripod placed on the high booth, which makes Kong Yingda feel shocked again.


    "How is this possible?" Liu Yinian closed his eyes painfully and couldn''t believe everything in front of him. The little catfish jumping up and down in the Imperial College really made something great.


    In private room A-1.


    "Kong Yingda, the old sour scholar is here too?" Cheng Yaojin grinned and said, "I thought he could hold on for a while?"


    "The grass people arranged Kong Jijiu and others in private room B-3. The grass people didn''t dare to disturb Mr." the fish master replied.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. Kong Yingda was able to get there regardless of the different schools of thought, indicating that Kong Yingda was also aware of the importance of these two technologies and was bent on serving the country.


    At this moment, the sun is approaching noon, and the ink art exhibition has come to an end. Everyone is looking forward to the last Mohist secret skill - the live fish secret skill.


    How famous is the secret skill of live fish? As long as you ask a person in Chang''an City, the person will stop and talk to you for half an hour.


    The secret of live fish is well known. It is not only the addition of Mozi''s trustworthiness for thousands of years and the catfish effect, but also a huge wealth myth. Mozi came to Chang''an city with live fish with ten waterwheel years ago. Just one year ago, he fed five thousand people in Mojia village, and changed Mojia village from a poor village to a village admired by everyone. Although it can not be said that they have become rich, they have exceeded many villages. No matter what era, the pursuit of wealth is an eternal topic.


    "The secret of living fish."


    "Live fish secret skill!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Chang''an citizens shouted in bursts under the stands.


    To tell the truth, although they were shocked one after another today and felt that it was worth their trip today, they didn''t know these good things before. Most of the people present were attracted by the secret skills of live fish.


    They all want to know what is the secret skill of living fish that once led the wind and cloud of Chang''an city to create countless wealth?


    They have also been crazy to buy catfish in Chang''an City, experimenting with the catfish effect again and again, but they have failed repeatedly, which really makes them curious.


    Not only ordinary people, but also the big Si Nong on the stage and Li Shimin and Kong Yingda in the box.


    "The secret skill of living fish!" Merton''s voice sounded as everyone wished.


    "Mozi watched the old fisherman''s catfish effect thousands of years ago and decided to keep his word for the old fisherman for thousands of years on the east coast. After thousands of years, however, the ancestors of Mozi tried the catfish effect many times and failed.


    However, when the Mohist school came to a critical juncture of life and death, the Mohist village finally realized the secret of living fish. "


    Merton reached out and all the curtains of the ink exhibition fell. He saw a five foot wide pool around the ink exhibition. Wow, a lot of water mixed with a lot of fish poured into the pool.


    "So many fish?"


    The crowd exclaimed.


    "No, these fish are dead!" someone had sharp eyes and saw that many fish had turned white.


    "No, they haven''t died yet. These fish just don''t use the secret skills of live fish. If they don''t treat them, they will die soon," Merton said.


    "Now let me show you the secret skills of live fish." Merton''s passionate voice spread throughout the audience.


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, I don''t know when a huge windmill is set up next to the ink technology exhibition. Driven by the northwest wind, the windmill rotates rapidly. Each rotation will drive something like an air pump of later generations to inject air into the pool.


    In an instant, dense bubbles appeared in the whole pool. In less than a quarter of an hour, the fish that had turned their white belly were full of reply, one by one.


    A large number of dying fish are alive. This is the secret of living fish.

 Chapter 68

    "That''s it." Li Shimin asked disappointed, pointing to the pool where the fish kept bubbling and jumping one by one.


    "Your Majesty, this is the secret skill of living fish."


    Master Yu nodded with a wry smile. Yes, when he knew the secret skills of live fish for the first time, it was the same expression. It was so simple.


    Cheng Yaojin and others also looked at each other. No one could believe everything in front of them.


    In private room A-3.


    Kong Yingda and others were also stunned. Looking at such a simple live fish secret skill, all of them were stunned for a moment.


    "What''s going on? It''s over!" Kong Yingda asked in a daze.


    Others could not touch the monk, so they turned their eyes to Merton''s familiar ancestor.


    "Zu Mingjun, you are familiar with Merton. Have you ever seen the secret technique of live fish?" Shen Hongcai asked suspiciously. He didn''t believe that the secret technique of live fish that baffled the whole Chang''an city was so simple.


    Zu Mingjun smiled bitterly and said, "the students only knew it the day before yesterday, but at that time, like all the students, they couldn''t believe that the secret technique of living fish that caused a sensation in Chang''an city was so simple. Therefore, the students had to experiment it three times before they had to believe that this is the secret technique of living fish."


    The Imperial College people sighed and looked at each other.


    The people under the stands were even more crazy. Many of them had bought catfish at a high price to experiment with the catfish effect, thinking that they could crack the secret skills of live fish and make a lot of money.


    But they all failed. Who ever thought it would be so simple to inject air into water directly.


    "My catfish!"


    "My chance to get rich!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd howled.


    More people cried bitterly and said, "I knew... I knew it was so, but I was laughed at by that silly woman when I was experimenting, so I missed it for nothing!"


    Everyone looked at him sympathetically. He was so close to success. But because he didn''t believe that the secret skill of live fish was so simple, he wasted his opportunity and passed by.


    "It seems that everyone is disappointed." Merton''s voice sounded again.


    People are really disappointed. They didn''t expect that the secret skill of living fish to embarrass themselves and others was so simple and heinous.


    Everyone thinks that the secret script of live fish must be a very tall, or an exclusive secret recipe with complex steps.


    But the truth is desperate. The secret skill of a living fish to create wealth is to blow bubbles into the water? This is a skill that even a three-year-old knows.


    "Yes! It''s very simple. But have you ever thought about it? Why is it so simple? No one has thought of it for thousands of years. Hundreds of thousands of people in Chang''an City have not been able to crack the secret skills.


    Merton''s continuous questions made many people silent.


    Yes! Why such a simple problem? But no one found it.


    Why has mojiazi said the catfish effect? But no one has found the answer.


    Merton looked down at the audience and said proudly, "this is the magic of ink technology. We ordinary people say that seeing is just an appearance. And ink technology research shows that it is the essence under the appearance.


    "Sardine sardine effect is not the sardine survival desire, let the sardines live. But catfish and sardines fish constantly swimming, constantly stir up the spray, let the air in the water increase, so that the fish survive."


    People suddenly realized that this is the secret of living fish.


    They also foolishly experiment with catfish, and some continuously replace all kinds of fish to experiment with catfish effect.


    Even more outrageous, some people risked experimenting with the carp spread through the grapevine, and were almost caught by the government.


    Fortunately, his Majesty was kind. Only when the ban on carp was lifted could they survive.


    "The secret technique of live fish is very simple, but it is not simple. With the secret technique of live fish, fishermen no longer have to worry about catching fish. A large number of fish die, even rot and go bad, and lose their money. Yupu restaurant can use the secret technique of live fish to store live fish, so that people can eat fresh and delicious fresh fish.


    "A simple live fish secret skill of blowing bubbles into the water. The wealth created can reach millions every year. Even benefit thousands of years in the future. This is the magic of the secret skill."


    There was a burst of warm applause. They applauded Merton''s public secret skills of live fish. You know, this is a business of millions every year. It is conceivable that Mojia village announced the secret skills of live fish. Mojia village lost its monopoly position and lost a lot of money and wealth.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. Although he was disappointed by the secret skills of live fish, Merton didn''t let him down this time.


    "Let me tell you another good news. The demonstration pool of live fish skills you see today is the place where we reserve live fish from the restaurant to the top fishing scholar in Mojia village, which will open tomorrow.


    In the future, when you come here for consumption, you can choose live fish, slaughter and cook on site, so that you can eat the most beautiful and delicious fresh fish.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, a huge banner slowly landed. The top three characters can be seen everywhere.


    Li Shimin can''t laugh or cry. This little catfish can really toss around. At the most sensational time, he doesn''t forget to make a wave of advertisements.


    "Your restaurant is called the fish champion, which is worthy of its name." Li Shimin said to the fish master.


    "Thank you for your praise." Master Yu is happy. With Li Shimin''s words, the fish champion restaurant has an amulet.


    The audience couldn''t help laughing when they heard Merton''s advertising, and as soon as they wrote, the people who were interested remembered the way the fish champion sold fish, which was a good business opportunity. However, just when people thought that the secret of live fish was coming to an end, Merton made an amazing remark and aroused thousands of waves with one stone.


    "But if you think that the value of the secret skill of living fish is only so, you are very wrong. In my opinion, the value of the secret skill of living fish is far more than one million, or even ten thousand.


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole audience was in an uproar.


    Wanwanguan, that''s a huge number. You can believe it, but you can''t sell wanwanguan by selling fish and opening restaurants. You know, Datang''s annual finance is only a few million every year.


    "It''s impossible!" Cheng Yaojin said incredulously.


    Li Shimin also frowned slightly. He had a good impression of Merton because he announced the secret skills of live fish. Now he couldn''t help but be unhappy to hear Merton''s big talk about the value that the secret skills of live fish can produce.


    Qin Qiong and Li Chengqian stared at Merton with a headache. This guy is really capable of tossing.


    In private room A-3, Zu Mingjun also looked at his bad friend speechless. If this guy didn''t say a little alarmist, he would be uncomfortable.


    "Wan Wan Guan, I think it''s Morton who has made some achievements. I don''t know how many steamed buns he can eat!" Liu Yinian couldn''t help but satirize. In his opinion, Wan Wan Wan Guan is really outrageous.


    Others in the Imperial College also nodded slightly. They didn''t believe that the secret skills of live fish could be worth thousands of yuan.

 Chapter 69

    "Wan Wan Guan!"


    "Wan Wan Guan!"


    "Wan Wan Guan!"


    ¡­¡­


    The whole venue was silent, and the words "wireless cycle" were in everyone''s ears.


    Wanwanguan is a concept that ordinary people dare not think of. It may take months for a person to sit there and count the money.


    After the silence, there was a noise, and everyone was in an uproar and talking one after another.


    "I see how this boy can get around?" Liu Yinian said proudly, looking at the boiling venue.


    The whole ink technology exhibition was indeed very successful, but who could have thought that the ink family was amazing at the last minute, and the ink technology exhibition was in danger of collapse.


    "This is how Mohists usually make amazing remarks." Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian without expression.


    "Brother Mo always acts like a wild horse, but he has something to say. My son thinks that since brother Mo thinks that the secret skills of live fish are worth thousands of yuan, he must have his reason." Li Chengqian said with a hard bite.


    The reason why he supports Merton is that Merton has worked miracles many times. On the other hand, he doesn''t see any panic expression on Merton''s face.


    Li Shimin nodded, didn''t say anything, and turned his eyes to the venue.


    Ink technology exhibition


    Merton stood and looked at the skeptical expression of the audience. He smiled and said, "it seems that everyone doesn''t believe that the secret skills of live fish are of such great value. I''ve said too much today. If I''m a dumb fan here, I''ll remind you."


    Merton raised a finger and said, "the secret of ink technique is to see the essence of things through the appearance. If you can inject air directly into the water, you can make the fish live. Is this not an appearance?


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, everyone was stunned like lightning.


    Yes! This is not an appearance.


    Li Shimin, Cheng Yaojin and others fell silent. Kong Yingda and other Imperial College people also fell into thinking.


    According to Merton, the secret skill of living fish is indeed an appearance. What is the essence hidden in this appearance?


    What is in the air that can revive fish? Why can fish survive.


    "Air is around us, in our homes, in our bedrooms, even in front of our faces. Air is everywhere. We breathe it every day and rely on it to survive and maintain life.


    But no one has ever paid attention to air. We have never studied air. We should enjoy this thing closely related to our life, but we always ignore it. This thing is very important and important to our life. But we know nothing about it. "


    Merton''s words made everyone blush. They suddenly found that the air they had been using for free was the most precious. Without air, they couldn''t last for a quarter of an hour.


    Cheng Yaojin pinched his nose and his face turned red. He soon relented and gasped.


    "The Mohist school is right! The air can really keep people alive." Cheng Yaojin blushed and said shamelessly


    "In fact, not only you, but also my Mohist school has ignored this problem for thousands of years. I haven''t figured out what it is?"


    People slowly realized that it was not only us, but also the Mohists. People''s minds were balanced.


    "But I believe that this kind of gas must exist in the air and be everywhere. Mohists call the things in the air that can save live fish and make us breathe. The things that provide us with life nutrients as oxygen.


    Wow.


    A huge banner went down in the wind, but there was only one big word on it - oxygen.


    "Eh!"


    Li Shimin exclaimed. He looked at the word that had never appeared. There was a gas above and a sheep below, but people knew the meaning at a glance.


    "The MOH family, good means! They even made characters out of thin air." Kong Yingda snorted coldly.


    The people present also talked about it one after another. Obviously, they have found that this is a word that has never appeared.


    "This gas has never been found, so I gave him a new font. But I believe this oxygen must exist in the air.


    "Doctor Hua of Mojia village is the descendant of Hua Tuo, a miracle doctor. He once asserted that if this oxygen could be found, countless people would live."


    Everyone nodded slightly, and later generations of Hua Tuo testified. Coupled with the demonstration of the secret skills of live fish, everyone had a deeper understanding of the importance of oxygen.


    Let''s think about this magical gas that can give people life power and save countless people''s lives. Isn''t it worth a million? "


    "Of course it''s worth it." the people nodded silently in their hearts.


    Life is priceless and can save people''s lives. To let people live again is to spend more money.


    Even Li Shimin and Kong Yingda nodded slightly and realized the importance of this oxygen.


    Reversal, big reversal, no one thought that the seemingly mundane and disappointing secret skill of live fish could hide such great significance.


    Merton then said, "I know many people are regretting that they have not been able to crack the secret skills of live fish and have missed Wanguan''s property."


    As soon as he said this, the audience burst into laughter and looked at the man who cried and said he was almost successful.


    The man was immediately embarrassed and blushed.


    "There is still an opportunity for everyone to make a fortune."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole audience was silent and stared at Merton.


    What a fortune it would be! It can make generations rich and live a life.


    Merton took a deep breath and said word by word: "I, the descendants of the Mohist family and the medical family Hua Tuo, jointly offer a reward. If someone can develop oxygen, you will get a great reward."


    Boom!


    Everyone looked up suddenly. There was a frenzy in his eyes.


    Wanguan wealth is the dream of countless people. And the research object is the air that everyone can touch. Doesn''t that mean everyone has a chance to get it.


    "Mohist''s good means!" Li Shimin said positively. He saw Mohist''s plan. The value of oxygen may be great, but it''s a little exaggerated to say Wan Wanguan. It''s precisely with this exaggerated wealth that Merton attracts people and then offers Wanguan a reward, which doesn''t cause a sensation.


    "The development of Mohism by Eli must not be a long-term plan or a right way!" Kong Yingda said contemptuously. He also knew Merton''s intention,.


    But the people at the meeting didn''t care. They only knew how tempting it was to be rich.


    In a frenzied atmosphere. The Mohist ink art exhibition slowly came to an end.


    However, in the next three days, the ink technology exhibition will still be open to Chang''an citizens for various ink technology exhibitions.


    It is conceivable that more people will flock here in the future to witness these miracles.

 Chapter 70

    Outside the champion building.


    "When you pull up the mountain, you will be unparalleled. When things are bad, you will never die!" Qin Huaiyu was elated, singing and dancing.


    Morton looked helplessly at Qin Huaiyu, who was still excited. He was in the period of changing his voice. The sound of a male duck with a full mouth was very harsh. Rao was so proud. He didn''t care about the despised eyes of Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin.


    Chumo glanced contemptuously and said, "is that what you mentioned?"


    "I don''t care, no matter what method I use, I brought it up anyway!" Qin Huaiyu said without being hit and shameless.


    Chumo is angry! He stroked his sleeve and said, "come on, the reincarnated boy of the overlord, let''s compare our strength."


    Qin Huaiyu immediately counseled him. Although he was powerful, he was not good enough compared with Chumo, who was as powerful as a beast.


    However, he still said, "Ben overlord has already used up his strength. Let''s go another day."


    Chumo was so angry at his cheap manner that he wanted to beat him up.


    "If you want me to say, our Quyuan plow and columbine are powerful. That''s true talent and practical learning. They are of great use to both the country and the people, and are much better than someone''s fraud." Chumo sees Qin Huaiyu''s refusal and has an idea


    "It must be that Quyuan plow and columbine can feed many people. This time, it will be remembered in history." Wei Chi Baolin nodded again and again.


    Everyone with a clear eye can see that the atmosphere at the scene must be much stronger than Qin Huaiyu''s overlord in the world, but in terms of practical effects, Qu Yuan plow and columbine are certainly more useful.


    "Well, don''t argue any more! Uncle Yu must have prepared a meal for us and hurry to eat!" Merton saw that the three were still nagging and quickly attracted the three with delicious food.


    "What are you waiting for? It''s good to go quickly. My overlord has made great efforts today and wants to eat a big meal!" Qin Huaiyu didn''t forget his poverty when he wanted to eat, so he rushed into the restaurant.


    "You''re a fake. You''ve made great efforts! Bah!" Chumo catches up.


    "Don''t try to take away the delicious food!" Wei Chi Baolin hurriedly chased in after eating the two bad friends'' fake character.


    Merton smiled bitterly and followed him into the restaurant.


    "Uncle Yu! Is there anything delicious? Today I feel I can eat a cow!" Qin Huaiyu became a way to show off.


    Suddenly, a Yin measuring voice sounded on his head: "Oh, our overlord is back. How can we carry a huge tripod without eating a cow!"


    "Of course..." Qin Huaiyu suddenly paused and looked up pale. His father was in the private room on the second floor, looking at himself.


    "Father... Kiss...!" Qin Huaiyu stammered.


    "Brother fish, get him a cow and I''ll watch him eat!" Qin Qiong looked at Qin Huaiyu and said to the fish master.


    "Ah!" Qin Huaiyu suddenly turned pale. He was bragging about how he could eat so much food when he mentioned the huge tripod.


    "Father, I''m kidding. It''s spring ploughing time. It''s time to use cattle. And killing cattle violates the laws of the Empire. How can children do that?" Qin Huaiyu quickly softened when he saw the opportunity.


    "Ha ha!" Chumo and Wei Chi baolinton gloated. Qin Huaiyu has been showing off in front of them today. She is so bored that she finally stumbles.


    "Er, er..." the two of them were not happy for too long. They saw two people coming out of the private room behind Qin Qiong. They were Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde.


    Qin Huaiyu was happy. He thought he was the only one with the worst luck. He didn''t expect to have two companions.


    However, he was not happy for a long time. With a squeak, a box next to him opened. Zu Mingjun came out dejected. Kong Yingda and other Imperial College doctors came out.


    Qin Huaiyu''s three faces suddenly looked ugly. Now their parents and teachers appeared at the same time. Is this the rhythm of joint doubles? "


    "I didn''t expect the three princes to be here. The three princes are amazing now! It shows that they have made engraving printing. Now one can be comparable to the reincarnation of a overlord, and the other two can benefit hundreds of millions of people!" Kong Yingda said in a gloomy tone.


    Qin Huaiyu and his parents have been tossing about for a while. Kong Yingda usually doesn''t deal with them. He just takes the opportunity to make sarcasm.


    The Imperial College people suddenly realized that the three were Qin Huaiyu''s father. They thought of their troublemakers at school. Even if they knew that Cheng Yaojin was the Duke of the country, they couldn''t help looking bad.


    "Oh! How good they are! That''s not what the master taught!" Cheng Yaojin showed his big front teeth and fought back.


    Kong Ying choked half to death when she arrived at Dayton. Yes! In the final analysis, the three of them are still national son supervisors. Although there is a fault that the son does not teach the father, there is another sentence. If the teacher is not strict, he can not escape the responsibility.


    When Qin Huaiyu saw their father and master fighting, they couldn''t help sweating. No matter which side won, it must be themselves who were unlucky in the end. They couldn''t help looking at the chief villain Merton.


    Merton retreated slightly, shook his head and joked. Isn''t it a way to die at this time?


    As soon as Wei Chi Baolin did something bad, he swung his arm and squeezed Merton out with a little force.


    Merton didn''t expect that Wei Chi Baolin, the most honest at ordinary times, would do something bad at the critical moment. He couldn''t hold his strength and rushed forward two steps.


    "Yes!"


    Both sides stared at the same time, and Merton immediately felt great pressure.


    "I''ve seen your masters and three uncles."


    Merton sighed. Seeing the expression of the three people like a cat seeing a mouse, he had to break the embarrassment.


    None of the big people present had time to talk to him before! I''m staring at you. Well, you Mexican family jumped out by yourself.


    "Oh! It''s the contemporary giant of Mohism!" Kong Yingda looked at Merton and sneered.


    "The master is joking. The Mohist school has long declined, and the giant has been lost for hundreds of years. How dare students call themselves giants? Now it''s just that the master accepts a student." Merton is decisive and soft at the critical moment, and he has three years to work in the Imperial College?


    "Student, can the Imperial College accommodate you as a student? You just don''t come to the Imperial College for a month, which is more wonderful than I''ve been in charge of the Imperial College for ten years." Kong Yingda said angrily.


    Since Merton came, he first made the Guozijian students face down with five wins and one defeat, and arbitrarily changed the writing specifications for thousands of years.


    Before, Qin Huaiyu and the three made trouble, which was still under the control of the Imperial College and could be suppressed. When Merton came, he made a engraving printing technique and directly confused the false with the true. If they hadn''t exposed their own feet, they couldn''t tell when to hide it.


    Merton smiled bitterly. These three bastards have made themselves miserable. Now their situation is even more worrying. The three of them are supported by their parents, and he is directly facing the teacher''s fire.


    "Oh! This is a meeting between parents and teachers to criticize children! It seems that Kong Aiqing is very dissatisfied that I have arranged Merton to the Imperial College. Today, on behalf of Merton''s parents, Kong Aiqing tells me how Merton has made trouble in the Imperial College. It must be his board!" a sudden voice sounded, shocking everyone.


    Merton suddenly looked up and saw Li Chengqian coming out with a dignified middle-aged man.


    I!


    He is his majesty today, Li Shimin.

 Chapter 71

    "Emperor!"


    When Kong Ying arrived at Dayton, she secretly complained. He just scolded Mohist, but he didn''t expect to attract the emperor.


    The Imperial College people were shocked. They usually wanted to rush to the emperor and let the emperor listen to their policies.


    I didn''t expect to meet the emperor across from the Imperial College, and I came as the supervisor''s parent.


    "See your majesty!" they saluted quickly.


    At the moment, the people of Mojia village in the top scholar building knew that the emperor was right in front of them and couldn''t help getting excited.


    Merton looked at Li Shimin. It was Li Shimin who threw him into the Imperial College as a test piece of catfish effect, which involved himself in a big vortex. However, at the moment, Li Shimin stood up as Merton''s parent to protect Kong Yingda''s questioning, so that the little resentment in Merton''s heart had disappeared.


    In the hall of the champion building, the Three Kingdoms stand side by side. The parent meeting of students, parents, teachers and the highest standard of Datang is being held!


    However, the parent''s background is a little too big. Even if the master is a descendant of the Confucius family, he can''t stand it.


    "Mr. Kong, please tell me whether Merton once offended gentlemen or violated the regulations of the Imperial College!" Li Shimin asked.


    Kong Ying was speechless when she arrived at the Imperial College. After thinking about it, although the Mohists kept tossing and turning, they always abided by discipline. The only time they designed engraving printing to help Qin Huaiyu, and finally their merits and demerits balanced each other.


    On the contrary, it was a student of the Imperial College. The master had been looking for trouble for Merton. Now his parents came forward and scolded him personally. I really can''t make him ashamed.


    Other Guozijian doctors also blushed and couldn''t help dodging their eyes at Merton.


    "Your Majesty, Merton didn''t violate the regulations in the Imperial College." Kong Yingda said hard.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin elongated his voice and said, "how can I hear that Merton was not very good in the Imperial College?"


    As soon as Li Shimin said this, everyone in the Imperial College could not help but tremble. If the parents of ordinary imperial college students were asking such questions, no one would take them seriously, but if they came from Li Shimin, no one dared to take them seriously.


    Fortunately, Li Shimin did not pursue this issue. After all, the Imperial College is the place where the Empire trains officials. The authority of the Imperial College can not be questioned. It is enough to beat it.


    "Where''s su Lingnong?" Li Shimin immediately changed from a parent to an emperor.


    "Go back, your majesty! Big Si Nong has gone to the South Gate ahead of time with the Qu Yuan plow and said he would continue to experiment with the Qu Yuan plow!" Merton replied.


    After the ink technology exhibition, Merton once asked Su Lingnong to have a simple meal, but the overjoyed farmer didn''t delay at all and couldn''t sit still.


    "It seems that Su Aiqing is bent on sharing my worries! Come on, prepare some food in advance and whip it to Su Aiqing." Li Shimin ordered.


    "Yes!" the fish master immediately packed the food prepared for Merton in advance and gave it to a bodyguard to deliver it quickly.


    "Merton, you did a good job! From the catfish effect, to the three poems of the frontier fortress, block printing, Qu Yuan plow, artificial incubation technology, to the secret skills of live fish, you surprised me again and again!" Li Shimin looked at Merton.


    At this time, Merton and Li Shimin met for the first time. Li Shimin looked at the boy in front of him with emotion. From his eyebrows and eyes, we can vaguely see the style of Mo lie in those years. It''s just a pity that Mo lie died young and didn''t see how excellent his son was.


    "It''s just a fluke," Morton said awkwardly.


    "Lucky, if it''s all lucky, why doesn''t the whole people of Chang''an City have this luck? If it''s lucky, how can an ignorant young man dare to put forward conditions with me." Li Shimin looked at Merton with a smile.


    Merton blushed suddenly. He didn''t expect that his original abacus was completely penetrated by Li Shimin.


    Qin Qiong laughed. He helped hand over the original folding of the mojiazi.


    "But fortunately I agreed to your terms. The people of Datang can cultivate more land. It is no longer a luxury for ordinary people to eat meat." Li Shimin said with emotion.


    The poverty of Mohist village, the deeds of Mozi deliberately publicized by Merton in Chang''an City, together with the secret skills of live fish and the methods of artificial fish culture, finally aroused Li Shimin''s compassion and allowed Merton''s conditions.


    However, no one thought that Li Shimin''s compassion made the Mojia village glow with such great energy and gave Li Shimin a great surprise.


    "This is the precursor of the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty. It is the inevitable result of your Majesty''s correct leadership of knowing people and doing good deeds. I really dare not take credit!" Merton hardened his scalp and flattered.


    Qin Huaiyu and Li Chengqian looked at Merton without blushing as if they were strangers, while Li Chengqian looked like I didn''t know him.


    "The boy is promising!"


    Cheng Yaojin secretly thumbs up and praises in his heart.


    "Sycophant!"


    The Imperial College people wanted to scold secretly, and the shameless face of Mohist School despised them again and again.


    Li Shimin was neither laughing nor crying. The boy was really as slippery as a catfish. On second thought, he said to himself, "you can''t let him go so easily!"


    "Since there are so many tools that benefit the country and the people in Mojia village, why not hand them over to the imperial court, but sell them privately for profit!" Li Shimin shouted with a straight face.


    "Ah!" Merton was stunned.


    Liu Yinian suddenly showed a proud expression to see how you argue.


    Merton said carefully, "I dare ask how much money you can reward after handing it over to the imperial court. If you have more money, you can consider it. But if you reward thousands of dollars like the last printing, it''s OK. There are too many places for money in Mojia village!"


    Everyone was speechless for a while. The boy had drilled into the money hole. There was not enough money!


    "A gentleman is more important than righteousness and less important than profit. Handing it over to the court is the glory of loyalty and patriotism. How can it be measured by money!" Liu Yinian shouted.


    "Ha ha! When you have 5000 people eating with their mouths open, you will find that this sentence is wrong!" said Merton contemptuously.


    "You..." Liu Yinian blushed angrily.


    To tell the truth, Qianguan money seems to be a lot. It can only last for a while for 5000 people. How can you find a steady stream of money for Mojia village like Morton.


    Li Shimin opened his mouth, thought of the silver reward of the imperial court, and wisely changed the topic.


    "The crisis of Mojia village has been solved. What are the plans of Mojia in the future?"


    Li Shimin''s light words asked Kong Yingda what he had always wanted to ask, and took this opportunity to make things clear. After all, Confucianism is orthodox, and the power of Mohism is really important to the Empire. It''s better to explain some things in advance.


    Suddenly everyone''s eyes focused on Merton.

 Chapter 72

    "The future of Mohism?"


    Merton was suddenly silent, which was an extremely grand question.


    Everyone looked at him quietly, waiting for his answer.


    After a long time, Merton breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Thousands of years ago, Mozi advocated universal love, non attack, Shang Xian, Shang Tong, Tianzhi, Ming GUI, non life, non music, festival burial and frugality. Later, the Mohist school gradually declined amid the contention of a hundred schools of thought, so that it gradually disappeared and almost lost its inheritance. It can be seen that history has given the answer, and the political concept of the Mohist school is not in line with the times."


    Merton''s remark shocked the audience.


    No one thought that Merton''s first sentence denied the political ideas of the Mohist School for thousands of years. Kong Yingda suddenly looked up and his eyes glittered. The Mohist School admitted that it was inappropriate for him to get the idea. Wouldn''t it recognize the orthodoxy of Confucianism in a disguised form.


    Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that Merton was still holding on to his ancestors'' teachings like some stubborn.


    Master Yu was also dejected when he heard the speech. The Mojia village had always adhered to the ancestral teachings of the Mojia village, but it was extremely poor. If Merton had not been born, the Mojia village would not be like now.


    "But the Mohists have found their own way! A broad road with a bright future." Merton said confidently.


    "Ink technique?" Li Shimin asked.


    "The ultimate goal of ink technology is to explore the essence of the appearance of things hidden around us. I believe ink technology will surprise everyone in the future," Merton said.


    "There are so many things in the world that you can find that luck twice at a time doesn''t mean you''re lucky this time!" Kong Yingda disdained. He thought that the reason why Mohism could throw out the secret skills of Qu Yuan plow and live fish at one time was pure shit luck.


    Merton retorted, "there are so many things in the world that we don''t know why. For example, why are there clouds in the sky? How do clouds come from? How do wind, rain and lightning form? Why can birds fly in the sky? Why can fish swim in the water? How many animals and plants are there in the world? What is on the other side of the sea? Why does the sun rise and fall in the East and West? Why does iron rust?"


    Merton threw several whys on his face and shocked everyone.


    Everyone is silent. Yes! Why? They all know these phenomena, but no one has ever paid attention to them.


    "These things can''t be achieved by the strength of Mohist village alone. Fortunately, this time Mohist is not making cars behind closed doors, but actively cooperating with hundreds of families. This successful cooperation with farmers is a good start! Next, Mohist will actively cooperate with doctors while increasing cooperation with farmers!" said Merton.


    "Is that what you call oxygen?" Li Shimin said.


    He is very interested in this oxygen. There are countless examples of emperors pursuing immortality. Although Li Shimin has not reached this point, if you can find the gas to maintain human life, even if you can''t live forever, no one can refuse if you can live a few more years.


    "I believe that oxygen must exist. Once this oxygen is refined, doctors will have great development. Next, Mohists are actively seeking cooperation with other schools of thought," Merton said.


    "I don''t think it is possible for Mohism and Confucianism to cooperate with other schools of thought." Kong Yingda said calmly. In his opinion, Confucianism has been integrated and doesn''t need any change at all. Moreover, the knowledge of Confucianism is in theory, and the ability of ink technology lies in material objects, and no one will intersect at all.


    "Oh, I originally wanted to have a good thing to offer to the sacrificial Lord, but now it seems that I don''t need it!" Merton said lightly, but it made the Guozijian people worried.


    "Good things?" Kong Ying was in a dilemma when she arrived at Dayton. The value of the good things in the mouth of the Mohists is hard to say. If the Qu Yuan plow is the same to the farmers and the oxygen is the same to the family, if the Confucianism misses it, it will lose a lot.


    But he just said that Mohism and Confucianism could not cooperate. If he suddenly repented, he couldn''t hang his face.


    When Li Shimin saw Kong Yingda, an old stubborn, in a dilemma, he couldn''t help laughing. Looking at Merton, who pretended to be a posture, he shouted with a straight face: "smelly boy, how do you talk to the master? Take out any good things quickly."


    Li Shimin reprimanded Merton in the tone of a parent. Merton couldn''t help shrinking his head and hurriedly pulled Qin Huaiyu down to get it.


    Kong Yingda gave Li Shimin a grateful look and thanked Li Shimin for his rescue.


    Soon, Qin Huaiyu and Merton came carrying a blackboard three feet wide and ten feet long. At this time, the blackboard for writing menus customized for the champion building in Mojia village was temporarily taken by Merton.


    This blackboard doesn''t want the thin iron sheet of later generations. The technology of Mojia village can''t reach it. Lao Zhang''s head is made of real materials, but the weight is also increased.


    Morton and Qin Huaiyu were so tired that their faces were red and sweating.


    "Oh! Isn''t this the living youth of our overlord? Why is this board heavier than a thousand jin giant tripod?" Qin Qiong sneered at Qin Huaiyu.


    Qin Huaiyu blushed with shame. He had been boasting about himself just now, but he was exposed so soon. Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin, two bad friends, snickered and gloated.


    "Bang!"


    The blackboard was heavily placed on the ground, leaning against the table and set up.


    "Is this what you said?" Kong Yingda looked at Merton suspiciously.


    "Still want to add this?" Merton took out a bag of chalk from his arms and wrote on the blackboard.


    "At noon on the weeding day, sweat drips down the soil. Who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard."


    The white chalk words are clearly visible on the blackboard. However, people''s attention is not the focus, but all are attracted by Merton''s poem.


    "Good poetry!"


    Many people in the Imperial College are poetry fans and have high literary cultivation. You can see at a glance that this poem is a rare good poem!


    Many Dr. Guozi even shook his head and tasted it with an expression of enjoyment. What''s more, he has begun to comment on this poem.


    Li Shimin can''t help but brighten his eyes. So far, Mohist Zi has written three poems on the frontier fortress, plus chanting geese one by one. The capital is a classic. Now it''s estimated that one will be added to the whole classic.


    Li Chengqian and others have long been a normal expression. Merton will take any surprise for granted. After all, Merton has created too many miracles.


    As for Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and other military figures, they looked at these acid Confucians with contempt.


    Merton could not laugh or cry at once. Is it good to deviate from the building? His original intention was to demonstrate the use of chalk blackboard. Where is it for you to drink tea and poetry.

 Chapter 73

    After a long time, the people in the Imperial College woke up. It turned out that what Mozi showed them was not poetry, but this unique chalk.


    "What is this?" Kong Yingda asked with a face.


    "This board is called the blackboard. This white thing is chalk and can write on the blackboard. I think the lectures given by the doctors of the Imperial College are very laborious. They often repeat a sentence many times. With this blackboard and chalk, it will greatly reduce the burden of teachers." Merton said, holding a chalk and demonstrating it on the blackboard and writing a few words, He took a simple blackboard eraser and wiped it off.


    Many doctors from the National Academy of Sciences even came forward to practice in person and praised them one after another. Blackboards and chalk can indeed greatly reduce the workload of teachers.


    Kong Yingda''s eyes lit up and nodded secretly. This is really a good thing, but as the pride of Confucianism, he can''t be willing to be soft.


    "It''s OK, but it''s far from a Qu Yuan plow!" Kong Yingda said hard.


    Merton looked at Kong Yingda, who refused to bow his head, smiled and said, "please take a closer look at this poem."


    Kong Yingda smiled and was secretly proud that mojiazi was still too young to show off his poems.


    "It is indeed a rare good poem. It vividly expresses the hard work of farming and the difficulty of food. It is instructive to persuade people to cherish food and not to waste it. I believe that Da Si Nong will like this poem here!" Kong Yingda analyzed this poem in his long and eloquent comments.


    Li Shimin nodded secretly and was relieved that the Tang Dynasty had always attached importance to agriculture and mulberry. Now the Mohist school has invented the Quyuan plow and columbine, and the grain will increase greatly in the coming year. There is another instructive poem of compassion for agriculture, which will certainly make agriculture and mulberry more prosperous.


    Kong Yingda was secretly proud. Yu Guang glanced at the expression of the mojiazi, but found that Merton had a trace of sarcasm. He couldn''t help but wonder. He quickly and carefully looked at the poem.


    "No problem! That''s exactly what it means!" Kong Yingda wondered, but a wonderful feeling came to his mind. His intuition told him that there must be something fishy about this poem.


    Suddenly, his eyes suddenly paused and stared at the last point of the poem, as if he had been struck by lightning.


    Other people also found Kong Yingda''s strange appearance. They were about to ask, but they saw Kong Yingda suddenly come forward and almost lie on the blackboard, staring at the back of each poem. The two small tadpole like symbols and two small circles left by mojiazi.


    "What is this?" Kong Yingda asked in a trembling voice.


    "Punctuation!" Merton replied.


    "What''s the use?" Kong Yingda''s intuition must be of great use


    Merton smiled and didn''t answer. He came forward and wrote a line on the blackboard.


    "I won''t stay on rainy days." Li Shimin read it softly.


    "Mo boy, what do you mean, you want to drive us away!" Cheng Yaojin grinned and threatened.


    "Uncle Cheng is joking. I can''t wait for you to come. How can I drive you away?" Merton quickly explained, "let me tell you a little story here."


    "Story, I like it?" Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.


    Li Shimin smiled, but he remembered the story of catfish effect told by Merton outside the south gate, which caused a sensation in Chang''an.


    "According to Mozi''s secret records, once Mozi visited a miser''s house, but it suddenly rained heavily. The miserly owner''s house didn''t want Mozi to stay, so he wrote on a bamboo slip:" if it rains, I''ll stay, but I won''t stay. " When Mozi saw the bamboo slips, he laughed, drew a few strokes on the bamboo slips, and happily found a room to live in. Although the host family was unwilling to see the bamboo slips, they had to hold their nose and refuse to recognize them. "Merton moved out the omnipotent Mozi secretly again.


    "Why is this?" Qin Qiong asked curiously. According to the owner''s stingy character, it''s impossible to recognize it by pinching her nose.


    Merton reflexively added a few punctuation marks on the blackboard, but the meaning of the whole sentence changed dramatically.


    "Rainy days, guest days, do you want me to stay?" Qin Qiong couldn''t help laughing at these words.


    A sentence was separated by punctuation marks, which produced two different meanings. No wonder the stingy host recognized it with his nose.


    Li Shimin also laughed. The meaning of these two sentences was completely opposite. Mozi used his clever wisdom to resolve the embarrassment of having nowhere to live in rainy days.


    "In my opinion, this sentence can also be read like this. If it rains, will it stay for me?" Li Shimin''s childlike Solitaire said.


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t wait to go on and said, "if it rains, I won''t stay!"


    The two of them played this sentence directly from inside to outside.


    Kong Yingda snorted coldly and said, "it''s just a joke. What''s the meaning?"


    "Oh, master, look at this!" Merton turned back and wrote another sentence on the blackboard.


    "The people can make it, but they can''t make it known."


    "This sentence comes from the Analects of Confucius. Merton shook his head and said:" Kong Sheng advocated education without discrimination. There were 3000 and 72 sages. Mozi also respected it in those years. Merton didn''t believe that Kong Sheng would advocate the policy of fooling the people! "


    "Fool the people policy!"


    As soon as Merton said this, Li Shimin and Kong Yingda couldn''t help blushing. Emperors of all dynasties managed the world according to the theory that the people can use it and can''t know it. Now it seems that the term fool the people policy is very appropriate.


    Merton added two punctuation marks on the blackboard, and the whole sentence immediately became another meaning.


    "The people can make it by themselves, can''t make it known. For the people, those who can make it free, and those who can''t make it known. Teaching students according to their aptitude precisely reflects the Confucian thought of moralizing politics, conforming to the people, responding to heaven and opening up the wisdom of the people." Merton said.


    Merton''s words made Kong Yingda sweat. He found that they may have misunderstood Kong Sheng''s meaning. What''s more terrible is that they should govern the country with such a wrong policy.


    Before that, he must have believed that the people could use it and not know it. If someone suspected Kong Sheng, he would fight with him.


    But now let him look at this sentence again. He found that he had three ways to interpret it.


    "If the people can use it, they can use it; if not, they know it."


    "The people can use it, not from it, so that they can know it."


    "Can the people make it? No, they can make it known."


    Li Shimin''s face is gloomy. He has always attached importance to Kong Sheng and even reused Kong Yingda as the Imperial College to train talents for the Tang Dynasty. However, he found that he may have used the wrong theory to govern the country for nearly ten years.


    "Kong Aiqing, I order you to use punctuation marks to break Confucian classics and strive to be accurate." Li Shimin ordered with a dark face.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei!"


    Kong Yingda bowed down and left.


    When I was about to reach the door, I suddenly stopped and bowed to the statue of Mozi enshrined in the Zhuangyuan building.


    "Mozi is really a man of great wisdom!" Kong Yingda sighed and hurried away.

 Chapter 74

    After Kong Yingda led the imperial college students to leave, the atmosphere of the champion building immediately became strange. According to the practice of ordinary families, most parents would protect their children in front of teachers, but once the teachers left, only parents and students were left, that was when the bear child was going to have bad luck. When he was lucky, his father was beating his mother, What''s more tragic is that parents mix doubles at the same time.


    Morton and Qin Huaiyu could not help but shrink their heads and wait for a storm. How they admired the guy named Zu Mingjun. They were so ungrateful that they took the opportunity to run away with the Imperial College.


    "So the catfish effect is false?" Li Shimin said faintly, with a bad tone. He found that he had found too many deceptions today.


    "Er, ER!" Merton choked immediately. He found himself bound again and announced the secret skills of live fish, but it was associated with the catfish effect.


    "Sardine stimulated the sardine from the surface, which caused the survival of sardines, and it is not wrong." explains Merton carefully.


    "What about the essence?" Li Shimin looked at Merton with a smile.


    Merton was stunned. He really moved his own stone and hit his toes. If he hadn''t always emphasized looking at the essence through the appearance, how could he be asked so much.


    "Your Majesty, I think the catfish effect may not be suitable for fish, but it is very appropriate for human beings. Isn''t this a living example?" Qin Qiong answered in time.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and glared at Merton with hatred, which was regarded as letting Merton go once.


    For him, although he learned that he might have used the wrong idea to govern the country, his harvest was also very huge. Quyuan plough, artificial incubation technology and the soon to be discovered oxygen will also be of great use. All this is the toss of the small catfish in front of us. In this way, the catfish effect is not false.


    "For the sake of your contribution, I''ll let you go this time!" Li Shimin said.


    "Hoo!" Merton breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "thank you, Emperor. I will be loyal to my country and contribute more useful ink skills to Datang in the future."


    "More ink skills! Inspired by Mozi''s close book?" Li Shimin looked at Merton with an inexplicable smile.


    Merton suddenly got a big head. These people are famous human spirits in history. They must have seen a flaw in him.


    "But speaking of it, I''m a man who doesn''t like reading, and I''m curious about Mozi''s interesting book. I don''t know if Mozi can open my eyes." Cheng Yaojin showed his big front teeth and opened his mouth to directly hit the key of Morton.


    "Er! It''s not that the boy is stingy, but Mozi''s secret is passed down from generation to generation in the Mojia village. When my father passed it on to the boy, the boy was still young and can''t remember well. Many of them have been blurred and can only be recalled occasionally." Merton said hard.


    "Oh!" everyone looked at Merton deeply.


    Merton was under great pressure and hurriedly said, "Uncle fish, serve the dishes quickly. I''m afraid your majesty and several uncles are already hungry!"


    "Let''s have dinner first. After dinner, the boy will show you the experimental field of Mohism." Merton asked the people to sit down.


    "Experimental field? It''s the experimental field that you said can double the yield per mu to six hundredths!" Qin Qiong asked. At present, the average yield per mu is about three Dan and six Dan, which is equivalent to doubling.


    "This boy is very evil! If he says he can achieve six hundredths per mu, I believe he will." Cheng Yaojin said confidently to Merton.


    "Thanks for uncle Cheng''s trust. I can see the details in the afternoon. I can''t guarantee that I can produce six loads per mu, but I''m sure of a substantial increase in production," Morton said.


    "Look! I said the boy is very slippery and speaks without leakage. When he said this, I absolutely believe that Mohism must have made a great breakthrough." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.


    "It''s also a good thing if we can reach Liudan, but we should also prevent the phenomenon of cheap grain hurting farmers," Qin Qiong warned.


    Li Shimin nodded silently. He remembered that the year before last was also a harvest year. He went down to inspect and found that the farmers were still suffering.


    "Cheap grain hurts farmers?" Merton shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is worried. If it was possible before, but now with artificial incubation technology, farmers have more food, and they can feed chickens, ducks and geese in large quantities."


    "What if a large number of chickens, ducks and geese can''t be sold? In the end, the farmers don''t lose money?" Li Shimin asked.


    Can''t sell? Merton smiled. There were no unsalable chicken farms in future generations, not to mention in Datang, a country that is extremely short of meat.


    At this time, the fish master just brought up a full house of food. As soon as a plate of golden food came up, it was fragrant.


    Merton''s eyes brightened and said, "don''t worry, your majesty. With these, there will be no phenomenon of cheap grain hurting farmers in Datang within five years."


    "Is this chicken leg?" Li Shimin wondered.


    "To be exact, it''s fried chicken legs, and this half is fried chicken chops!" Merton added.


    Merton thought of the fried chicken chops and Kaifeng dishes that were all over the streets in the future. The chicken consumed every day was terrible. With the current agricultural level of Datang, it was still a problem whether it could be supplied.


    Li Shimin picked up one and took a bite. At that time, his mouth was full of Tianjin fragrance, and the chicken was smooth and tender.


    "It''s delicious!" Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help it for a long time. He reached out and took a big bite to eat. He was full of praise while eating.


    Everyone, you and me, soon a large plate of chicken legs and chicken chops were wiped out.


    Li Chengqian took his own identity and ate only one piece and found that it was gone.


    "This is the third batch of the food plan prepared by the Mohist family. In the next time, these fried chicken shops will open all over the country, known as delicious food in the mouth," Merton said.


    Qin Huaiyu''s eyes suddenly brightened. They have a share of the food plan. If they can join, they will have a lot of money in the future!


    "Good, good?" Li Shimin was full of appreciation. Although Mojia Zi usually can''t slip his hands, he has many ghost ideas and constant tricks. He couldn''t help but marvel at the delicious food. Even more chickens can be sold.


    After everyone had a cup of tea, Merton pointed to another plate and said, "Your Majesty, look, this is roast duck! The fish master removed its bones, sliced the duck, stained it with special sweet flour sauce, green onions and shredded turnip, and rolled it with a thin roll of Luomo."


    Merton taught again and again, rolled up one and put it into his mouth. The expression of enjoyment made everyone move their fingers and join the ranks of gluttonous food.


    Before everyone finished, Merton introduced another dish.


    "This is braised meat,..."


    "This is sauerkraut fish..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The four most representative delicacies of chicken, duck, fish and meat came out, and the cups and dishes were in a mess for a while.


    After eating a meal, everyone''s worries are spread. I believe that meat after the Tang Dynasty will certainly be in short supply, which will certainly drive more people''s breeding and promote food prices.


    "Braised meat is delicious. What kind of meat is it?" Cheng Yaojin asked after eating it.


    "Pork!" Merton replied quickly.


    "Pork?" Cheng chumerton exclaimed. In Datang, pork is considered to be inferior meat. They can eat it there. How can they know that braised pork is so delicious that it is made of pork.


    Not only Chumo''s stomach churns, but also Qin Huaiyu, Wei Chi, Baolin and Li Chengqian are pale.


    Unexpectedly, Li Shimin, Cheng Yaojin and others looked calm. When they fought in the world, they didn''t eat any meat. Eating some pork was a good meal in the army.


    "Merton, do you know that pork is eaten by inferior people? What do you think?" Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    "Isn''t it delicious?" Merton asked in surprise.


    "Delicious is delicious!" Qin Huaiyu wanted to refute, but he didn''t know where to start.


    "Yes! I think it''s delicious!" Wei Chi Baolin silently supported Merton.


    "But..."


    Before Qin Huaiyu finished, Qin Qiong slapped Qin Huaiyu heavily on his head and shouted angrily, "I thought we were out of food for several days and nights in the army. At that time, I beat a wild boar. Everyone survived those difficult days with this pig. Your boy gave it back to me."


    Li Er was even more calm. He was even more cruel. In those years, when there was a locust disaster in Guanzhong, he personally swallowed the existence of locusts, let alone cooked such delicious braised meat.


    Seeing this, Li Chengqian quickly sat up and thought about it carefully. It was really delicious. It was not as disgusting as he thought just now.


    "Mo boy is good. I support you. I remember that wild boar meat had a lot of fishy smell, but your braised meat had no fishy smell at all. It was really good," Cheng Yaojin said. He is a foodie, flying in the sky and running on the ground. He tasted it when he fought everywhere. Although fried chicken legs and roast duck are delicious, they are not used to eating, but this braised meat is really too good for his appetite.


    "This is a variety being cultivated in Mojia village. It has achieved initial results. In the future, after removing the fishy smell, pork will replace mutton and become the favorite meat in the mouth of the people of the Tang Dynasty." Merton said that although he was happy with all meat, he was not sensitive to mutton.


    Merton once ate authentic hand cooked rice in his previous life. As a result, he had the taste of warm and greasy mutton oil in his mouth all day. Even in the future, only mutton kebabs can eat, and he really can''t eat any other.


    The leftovers were quickly removed, and Qin Huaiyu returned to normal.


    After they had a rest, seeing that the sun had begun to slant westward, they were ready to go to nanchengmen to see the Mohist experimental field and see the real effect of Quyuan plow.

 Chapter 75

    Nancheng gate


    More and more ponds used to transfer live fish in Mojia village have been opened for people to visit. An endless stream of Chang''an citizens have surrounded the pond on both sides.


    There are countless live fish in the pond. They are not afraid to see the people on both sides. They are running to the oxygen supplier to compete for a comfortable place.


    "Ah! So this is the secret skill of live fish!"


    A green shirt scholar was disappointed and said that he couldn''t lift his interest when he saw such a simple secret skill.


    "Didn''t you attend today''s ink art exhibition?" the middle-aged man in black looked at the scholar in green and said.


    "How do you know?" the green shirt scholar was surprised.


    The middle-aged man in Black said with a smile: if he participated in the ink technology exhibition, he would not be disappointed. Mozi promised in public that if anyone could understand why injecting air into the water could make the fish live, he would directly offer a reward of 10000 yuan! "


    "Ten thousand passes!" the green shirt scholar was shocked and couldn''t close his chin.


    Many listeners around were also in an uproar, ten thousand times, which was a fortune they could not think of. When they thought of here, they couldn''t help looking at the oxygen supply driven by the windmill next to the pond.


    "If you find out the existence of oxygen by yourself, isn''t it..." more and more people think that the temptation of 10000 is too big to resist its power.


    "It seems that the little catfish''s strategy is very successful!" Li Shimin looked at the people and talked about it one after another. He opened his mouth and closed his mouth. It seemed that money was not money.


    He was dressed in civilian clothes like a rich man wandering around, surrounded by tall Cheng Yaojin and black faced Yuchi Jingde, and capable Qin Qiong disguised as a guard.


    "All the bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the bustle in the world is for benefit. If it''s not for the five thousand hungry and cold villagers in Mojia village, Dunning would rather be a dandy walking dogs and playing birds!" Merton said. He took the fish food from a passing Mojia boy, grabbed it and threw it into the water.


    "Brush!" the fish food fell into the water and made a clear sound. Because Mojia village had been feeding in the fish pond for a long time, the fish here had already developed the habit of grabbing food. Suddenly, countless fish heads rushed there, frantically competing for food and splashing the water out of the water.


    "How spectacular!"


    This kind of scene, which is very common in later generations, appeared for the first time in the Tang Dynasty, causing everyone''s exclamation.


    "Guan Zhong''s words are really penetrating!" Li Shimin sighed.


    As an emperor, he had a deeper understanding of Guan Zhong''s words, and often used this method to achieve his own purpose.


    The picture of fish grabbing food left a deep impression on everyone, and many pedestrians asked to do it again.


    Merton was not in the mood to perform again. He handed the fish food in his hand to Qin Huaiyu, who was eager to try. He took Li Shimin and others to the experimental field of Mohism.


    "See you, sir!"


    Su Lingnong gets the news and rushes to Li Shimin. For the sake of Li Shimin''s safety, Su Lingnong calls him master. At the moment, Su Lingnong is dressed like an old farmer. If Li Shimin didn''t recognize him, he would never have thought that the big Si Nong of Datang was this person.


    "Su Lingnong, you came first. How about Qu Yuanli?" Li Shimin asked.


    Su Lingnong quickly pointed to the field and said, "Your Majesty, there are cultivated pears operating at the same time. One of them is an old cultivated pear, and the one on the right is a Qu Yuan plow. Qu Yuan plow has great advantages!"


    Li Shimin looked around and saw that the old cultivated pear on the right was very heavy, it was very difficult to turn around, and it was difficult to use the gain and loss double cattle cultivated land. In this way, it is still not as large as the area of cultivated land with a Quyuan plow pulled by one person and one cow on the right.


    "Quyuan plow can not only directly save a cow without slowing down the speed of cultivated land, but also turn the underground soil back, making the land more fertile and soft, which is conducive to the growth of farmers. Mohism is really great. Thank Mohism here on behalf of millions of farmers in the Tang Dynasty."


    Su Lingnong bowed to Merton.


    Morton was startled. He quickly turned aside and said, "Lord Su broke the evil boy. The boy asked the Mojia village to improve the Quyuan plow just to find a source of money for the Mojia village. He can''t afford the big gift of adults."


    "Lord Su is very polite to this boy. The farmers have got advanced tools to improve quyuanli. Mojia village has made money to make quyuanli, and each takes what he needs." Qin Qiong persuaded Su Lingnong.


    "The public of the Yiguo doesn''t know what Merton has done. Sir, look, the 100 mu field is neatly divided into four parts, each of which is 25 mu." Su Lingnong said, pointing to the four planned fields.


    Qin Qiong suddenly realized that they thought the field was originally there, but they didn''t think it was planned by Mojia village.


    "What''s the use of such planning? Is there any trick in it?" Li Shimin asked, not understanding Su Lingnong''s gaffe.


    Su Lingnong looked at them. They were in the middle of the field and there was no one around. Then he respectfully said, "if you return to your majesty, let Sir Mo explain the secret to you. After all, sir Mo designed it and only he can explain it clearly."


    "Mo boy, talk quickly!" Li Shimin squinted at Merton.


    Merton touched his nose awkwardly. When old man Su spoke just now, you were respectful and polite, but when I asked you to say it, you were very impolite.


    There''s no way. Who makes himself the lowest position here? Merton sighed in his heart and said, "the boy divides this 100 mu into four. The first part uses traditional farming methods to sow seeds, and the second part of the land is slightly changed. Weichen collected plant ash and various fertilizers from various villages, and turned them into the ground with a Qu Yuan plow to enhance the soil fertilizer, so as to increase the grain yield."


    In fact, Merton passed by in spring and autumn. All kinds of fertilizers also include human and animal feces. These commonly used fattening methods in later generations are the most effective. Of course, it is not necessary to elaborate with Li Shimin one by one.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. It was really a good idea, although he was a little uncomfortable with the smell from his nose.


    Merton went on: "the third boy thinks that the grain yield is bad because the sown seeds are eaten by pests and birds. As I said, I stir the seeds with a slightly toxic and pungent liquid to protect the seeds from being eaten by pests, resulting in reduced grain yield."


    "If my guess is right, the fourth plot is to plant the seeds mixed with liquid medicine in the fattening field," Li Shimin said.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Morton flattered.


    "Then why not directly fatten all the fields and sow all the seeds mixed with liquid medicine. I believe you must know that the farmer''s harvest planted by this method is the best." Li Shimin said with a flash in his eyes.


    Merton bowed his head slightly and replied respectfully, "boy, although I''m 99% sure that this can increase production, I can''t do it directly."


    "I call this land the experimental field. These four small fields are the steps of the Mohist experiment. The experiment is the only way to discover the ink technology. The live fish secret technology, the Qu Yuan plow and the artificial incubation technology all come from the experiment step by step and finally succeed. Therefore, these four steps are to show the origin of the ink technology to the world."


    "This is not only the experimental field of the farmers, but also the experimental field of the Mohists," Merton said proudly.

 Chapter 76

    Unfortunately, Merton''s lofty words and ambitions were ignored, and everyone''s attention was still focused on the wheat seeds mixed with liquid medicine.


    Li Shimin carefully looked at the seeds mixed with pesticides, smelled the pungent taste, frowned and said, "are you sure you can eat food like this?"


    Li Shimin''s eyes are not good at staring at Merton. If this guy dares to plant poisonous food and poison the people, he still wants to destroy it, so as to save him from harming people.


    Merton quickly explained: "Don''t worry, your majesty, these liquid medicines are formulated by descendants of Hua Tuo. They are not highly toxic. If you don''t drink them, they won''t kill people at all. These liquid medicines seem to be many, but they are distributed on these seeds. When they are sown in this 50 mu land, the average toxicity is very little. After several months of growth and several heavy rains, all the toxicity has been distributed, It can''t be toxic. "


    Merton found that there was a descendant of Hua Tuo, a miracle doctor. It was so convenient that he pulled it out to block the gun at the critical moment.


    The reason is this reason. Everyone can understand Merton''s meaning. In addition, there are descendants of Hua Tuo. I think it''s not a big problem, but it can''t be careless!


    Merton also understood people''s concerns, and then said: "after this batch of grain is hit, it will not flow out. It will be used to feed chickens, ducks and geese first. After it is determined that it is non-toxic, it will be supplied to Mojia village."


    Li Shimin was relieved. But if it was really non-toxic, it would be a great gospel to the people of Datang.


    Next to the experimental field is the display platform of the monong series farm tools in Mojia village, as well as the sales site of chickens, ducks and geese.


    Here, Qu Yuanli has become an absolute star. In this era, land is the most valuable wealth. Most people who come to visit the experimental field have land. They see the great difference between the old-fashioned pear cultivation and Qu Yuanli in the experimental field, and their doubts have long disappeared.


    "Give me a Quyuan plow and a six tooth columbine!" a thin man, carrying money on his back, pointed to the Quyuan plow and the new columbine and said to a boy of Mohism.


    "Haole, dear guest, today is the day when our ink skills are launched. The Mojia village holds a big reward activity. If you buy more than two at a time, you can get a discount of 100 Wen and charge you 500 Wen." the children of the Mojia skillfully received the money. They counted it and handed it to Li Yi, who specializes in collecting the money.


    Today is a big day in Mojia village. Li Yi was worried and came to town. Li Yi counted the money and nodded. The number was very right. Master Li quickly stamped and signed an invoice.


    "Take this invoice and pick up the goods at the booth!" Li Yi handed the invoice to the skinny man and said.


    "You can pick up the goods with this!" the skinny man said suspiciously. In this era, it has always been one-hand payment and one-hand delivery. There is a modern management method of picking up the goods at sight.


    "Of course, you see, other people are the same, and we can''t run here!" Li Yi explained patiently.


    The skinny man looked at it. Sure enough, many people picked up the goods at sight. One by one, they came out carrying the Quyuan plow with a smile. Their hearts immediately settled down.


    "Take good care of this invoice, replace it within seven days and repair it free of charge within three years," Li reminded.


    The skinny man was overjoyed when he heard the speech. He didn''t expect that Mojia village had such perfect after-sales service. Now he was overjoyed and went to the Mojia village booth to pick up the goods with his ticket.


    Sure enough, after seeing the tickets, the Mohist children in the booth sealed a chapter and tore off a small half as a voucher, returned the rest to the lean man, and arranged for someone to carry out the Quyuan plow and columbine cart.


    "This method is also good!" Li Shimin nodded his head when he saw the method of buying Qu Yuan plow in Mojia village.


    Every Mohist child has a different division of labor, but they cooperate closely, which greatly saves human and material resources. Moreover, the collection and delivery of money do not belong to each other. They all work on the basis of tickets, avoiding financial disputes.


    Li Shimin thought more. Since ancient times, the emperor''s biggest problem is the corruption of his ministers. If the court can use this method, I''m afraid it will greatly increase the opportunity of corruption.


    "Mojia village is short of manpower now. Using this method can save a lot of manpower, otherwise it will be really busy today!" Merton said.


    "It seems that the Quyuan plow and the new columbine are really popular!" Qin Qiong watched more and more Ren leave with a smile.


    "These villagers who buy one or two are farmers with cattle at home. In addition to farming their own land, these people usually collect a certain amount of money to help other villagers cultivate their land. The Quyuan plow and columbine add one yuan for only 500 Wen. With Quyuan plow, more people will find them to cultivate their land. It is estimated that these people can earn their capital back this year!" Su Lingnong said that he often visited the rural areas around Chang''an and was very familiar with the situation of cultivated land in rural areas. After all, there are too few farmers with cattle at home, and cultivated land can not be completed by employing people.


    "What about this?" Li Shimin pointed to a poor old farmer with a ragged body, and even directed the children of the Mohist school to carry out ten Qu Yuan plows at once.


    Su Lingnong looked at it and said, "Your Majesty, don''t be cheated by this guy. He''s the owner of Zhao family, the big landlord of Wannian county. He has thousands of acres of fertile land. He''s usually the most stingy. He''s reluctant to give up a new dress for several years. This time, he didn''t expect to be plucked by an Iron Rooster."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing and crying. He didn''t think that the big landlord with thousands of acres of fertile land at home was like this.


    "Oh, I didn''t expect the miser to be generous!" Su Lingnong obviously knew the Zhao family very well and joked.


    "Big Si Nong joked. I usually save money. There''s no need to spend money indiscriminately, and this yuan plow is a good thing. With it, I can finish plowing Lao Zhao''s field at least half the time ahead of time. There''s more money left." Zhao''s owner said with a smile, showing white teeth.


    "In the final analysis, you are not so positive because you can save money." Su Lingnong joked.


    "Hey, hey!" don''t expose it. Zhao is not ashamed at all. He proudly patted the big box behind him. There were bursts of pleasant chirps in it.


    "Next time, big Si Nong will come to Zhaojia village again. I will never be stingy. I will kill you a fat chicken! I will not let you say that I am stingy!" the Zhao family leader said boldly.


    Su Lingnong looked down. Good guy, there are at least 200 chickens in a dense place.


    "Well, you miser have sharp eyes. You deserve to be rich!" Su Lingnong said.


    "I, Lao Zhao, can''t do anything. I will raise chickens in all kinds of places." Zhao''s owner is filled with another kind of self-confidence.


    There are many similar to Zhao''s family. Almost everyone who comes to buy Qu Yuanli will more or less take back the chicks of chickens, ducks and geese, at least a few dozen or more, just like Zhao''s family, hundreds at a time.


    Li Shimin looked at the busy scene in front of him. It can be imagined that after a few months, every household in Chang''an city must be full of poultry. It seems that such a day is not far from the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty! And this brings all this is the thin young master in front of us.


    "Mohism may be of great use!"


    Li Shimin thought in his heart.

 Chapter 77

    In the ink art exhibition, there was a kind of people who went in and out very frequently, which attracted Li Shimin''s attention. These people wore unified black uniforms. Each of them pulled a vehicle transformed from the original water tanker carrying fish with a cow, and a curved yuan plow was attached to the back of the water tanker.


    Li Shimin is now very interested in everything in Mojia village. He reaches out to stop a new ox cart. The coachman is Li Xin.


    "Hello, young master. Hello, ladies and gentlemen!"


    Li Xin has a wink. Seeing his young master Li Shimin following behind, he knows that there must be a big man in front of him. He salutes respectfully.


    Li Xin used to be in charge of the transport team to transport live fish to Chang''an City, but from now on, the focus of Mojia village has shifted. After the secret technology of live fish is announced, more fish merchants will emerge from Chang''an City, and the live fish business is no longer the focus of Mojia Village. Therefore, Li Xin leaves some people to continue to transport live fish, He led others to the most popular business in Mojia village to promote quyuanli and chicken, duck and goose cubs.


    In order to leave a very formal impression, Merton specially asked the transport team to customize a unified uniform with five big white characters printed on the back.


    "Ink technology promoter!"


    Li Shimin looked at Li Xin''s clothes and said with an eyebrow.


    Merton quickly explained: "As the saying goes, the fragrance of wine is afraid of the depth of the alley! Although the ink technology exhibition was very successful in Chang''an City, Qu Yuanli and artificial incubation technology faced the majority of people, and they did not have the opportunity to participate in the ink technology exhibition in Chang''an city. Therefore, in order to enable the villagers to enjoy the achievements of the ink technology exhibition earlier, the Mohists decided to take the initiative to go deep into the countryside and promote good wine to them!"


    They all opened their mouths and looked at Merton speechless. It was clear that this guy was trying to buy Qu Yuan plows and artificially hatch chickens. What he said was for the country and the people.


    "The smell of wine is afraid of the depth of the alley! It''s interesting." Li Shimin can understand the meaning after a little thought.


    It is also good wine. One is waiting passively and the other is attacking actively. Obviously, Mojia village chose the latter one, and the effect seems to be very good.


    The sealed waterwheel is opened, and the empty waterwheel is made into several square squares. Each square is filled with eggs. They are packed in a paper tray specially made by Mojia village. They are loaded and safe.


    "You exchange chickens for eggs!"


    Li Shimin could see at a glance that the sales routine of Mojia village was barter.


    "Three eggs for a chicken." Li Xin saw Merton nodding slightly and said truthfully to Li Shimin.


    "Three times the profit?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Li Xin smiled bitterly and said, "you don''t know. An egg can indeed hatch a chicken, but not every egg can hatch a chicken, which will waste a lot. Moreover, the promoters have to go to dozens of Zhuangzi every day. Three eggs are already the promotion price! If they sell on a large scale in the future, at least five eggs for a chicken."


    Li Shimin thought about it, and it is true.


    "What about this Qu Yuan plow? Also exchange things?"


    Li Chengqian curiously touched the Quyuan plow hanging behind the waterwheel and asked curiously. The soil on this Quyuan plow is very new. It is obvious that it has just been laid down.


    "This Quyuan plow is not for sale. I''m just responsible for promoting Quyuan plow. I plow a small piece of land in every village to demonstrate the benefits of Quyuan plow. If anyone wants to buy it, I can convey it. There will be special Mohist children to send it to them!" Li Xin said.


    Although Datang didn''t have the concept of door-to-door delivery, it didn''t prevent people from understanding the practice of Mojia village. Seeing Merton smiling aside, Li Shimin pulled out his mouth and said, "I''m afraid the aroma of wine will float all over the pass this time!"


    "Hey, hey! It''s all for the people. It''s not hard!" Merton laughed.


    Seeing that Merton has no face and skin, Li Shimin and others can''t cry or laugh. The boy''s character is really like a catfish. He can''t keep his hands at ordinary times and take the initiative at critical moments.


    Li Xin unloaded a load of eggs and hurried away with a full load of chickens. He still has more than ten villages to complete the promotion today.


    "Now I believe that Mojia village will become the richest village in Guanzhong!" Li Shimin watched as Mojia promoters unloaded carts of eggs and pulled carts of chickens and ducks away. As a result, there were more and more eggs in Mojia village and more chickens, ducks and geese hatched.


    In this era, chickens, ducks and geese were raised in free range. There were no frightened eggs. These eggs were pulled to Mojia village, but three times the chicks were pulled out. In this way, the chicks in Mojia village would only roll more and more.


    "That''s just Meng Lang''s words." Merton Hao Ran said. He didn''t think of his lofty words and aspirations in Mojia village. Li Shimin turned it out.


    "With such good technology and practical and capable Mohist villagers, how can we not get rich. I''d rather have more and more villages in the world!" Li Shimin said.


    "I''m poor and afraid, and I don''t want to live the hard life before!" Merton said with emotion.


    "Even an old lady comes out to make money. If Mojia village can''t get rich, no one will believe it!" Cheng Yaojin smiled and pointed to an old lady in Mojia Village wearing the uniform of the ink technology exhibition. She was concentrating on frying the eggs golden and fragrant.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin are chewing. They are very sweet and satisfied. Qin Huaiyu looks at them.


    "These two food goods!" Murton said in his heart. He didn''t expect that these two guys would like such a delicious food.


    "Fried eggs!"


    Some people like and some don''t touch it at all. It appeared in Datang for the first time.


    "Is this?" Qin Qiong was surprised by the eggs, and many chickens had taken shape.


    "Artificial incubation technology has a certain time limit. Eggs that have not hatched chicks beyond this time will be treated as widows," Merton explained.


    oh People suddenly realized the origin of hairy eggs.


    "Yummy! Give me two more!" Chumo likes eggs very much.


    Unfortunately, he was robbed by Cheng Yaojin before he got it. Unexpectedly, he couldn''t stop talking as soon as he ate it. Soon, the whole stall was wrapped up by Cheng Yaojin and others. Even Li Shimin was amazed after trying to eat an oligarch.


    The party was divided into three groups. Cheng Yaojin, Cheng Chumo, Wei Chi Baolin and others chose to eat raw eggs. Li Shimin and Merton only liked to eat widowed eggs. Qin Huaiyu and Li Chengqian stood aside and didn''t look at them.


    Heavy taste food, not everyone can enjoy it.

 Chapter 78

    The lively ink technology exhibition ended, and Chang''an city quietly recovered its peace.


    However, the ancient well of Guanzhong has quietly changed a little. Quyuan plow showed its style in Guanzhong area. It is convenient, labor-saving and has good cultivated land effect. It soon conquered countless farmers.


    In this era when land is the most precious wealth, people may be frugal, but they are extremely generous for the convenience of farming. Three hundred Wen says whether it is expensive or not, but if more acres of wasteland are reclaimed, all the capital can be earned back in a year. Even the most stingy miser is willing to spend money on farming.


    Let alone quyuanli in Mojia village has a seven-day guarantee and three-year warranty policy.


    In an ordinary peasant household in Guanzhong area, men drive cattle and pull a Qu Yuan plow to work in the field early in the morning, while women babysit the newly bought chicks at home.


    Now the weather is still very cold. Usually, these chicks are covered tightly in the house. They only go out to get some air and bask in the sun at noon on a sunny day.


    This year, more than ten acres of wasteland have been reclaimed at home, and twenty chickens have been raised. The hens keep their eggs. In the summer, the cocks sell for money. At that time, they buy a batch of chicks and wait for the new year to eat meat. When they think of their own life, the life of the family seems to be getting better and better, and the women''s eyes are narrowed to the crescent moon.


    During the ten day break of the Imperial College, a large-scale transformation was carried out. The blackboard and chalk entered the highest University of the Tang Dynasty, and the response was good. No matter how Dr. Guozi had an opinion on Merton, they were unanimous in praise of the blackboard and chalk.


    The Imperial College is the wind vane of education in Chang''an city. For a while, private schools, large and small, in Chang''an City ordered blackboards and chalk from Mojia village. The construction team of Mojia village was almost too busy.


    "The Duke of Zhou made rites with nine numbers, and nine numbers are the nine chapters!" Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, picked up the chalk and wrote down the contents of the nine chapters of arithmetic on the blackboard. Merton was surprised to find that Shen Hongcai carefully separated the nine chapters of arithmetic with various punctuation marks, and the semantic expression was particularly clear.


    After the day-to-day study of the Imperial College, a new punctuation mark was finally issued. Although it is not small different from the punctuation marks of later generations, Merton did not stimulate them again, but silently changed his own symbols.


    At that time, the young students happily accepted this trendy symbol, which was simple, clear and clear at a glance. However, the promotion of Dr. Guozijian''s teaching assistant was not so smooth. Many older Dr. Guozijian still refused to use punctuation marks and still had a wayward long talk, which made the students miserable.


    However, mathematics is an accurate knowledge. It is reasonable for Shen Hongcai to take the lead in using punctuation in order to improve the accuracy of mathematics and avoid ambiguity.


    "Nine chapter arithmetic is the most important subject in mathematics. Everyone must be proficient. If you take the final exam, don''t blame me for being unreasonable!" Shen Hongcai snorted coldly with sharp eyes.


    Since Li Shimin ordered Guozi invigilators to take the math test in the future, math has suddenly become an important subject related to the future of Guozi invigilators. Shen Hongcai swept away his previous grievances and greatly increased his power.


    "Now let''s start the performance board!" Shen Hongcai Shua wrote down several questions on the blackboard and looked at the supervisor.


    Suddenly everyone was crying! Everyone''s eyes stared bitterly at Merton.


    Morton felt his nose awkwardly. It was not his idea, but Shen Hongcai''s own invention.


    Since I used the blackboard, I suddenly learned by myself without a teacher, and realized the most commonly used move of millions of teachers in later generations, the performance board.


    Several arithmetic problems were written on the blackboard. After one group of students finished writing, they changed to the next group. If time didn''t allow, Shen Hongcai wanted to pull everyone up and perform them one by one.


    Once that classmate makes a mistake, the consequences will be very serious. It is estimated that your name will be on every performance board next week.


    Of course, apart from Zu Mingjun and Merton, Shen Hongcai didn''t even look at these two perverts no matter how high their hands were raised. Zu Mingjun said that every time a student made more mistakes, Shen Hongcai would pull him to the rescue.


    However, Merton''s level of mathematics is not enough. Shen Hongcai feels that his level is not necessarily comparable to him, so he won''t take the risk of losing face.


    "Kong huisuo!" Shen Hong began to call the roll.


    Kong huisuo lamented that his arithmetic level was not good. He had missed it several times before. Sure enough, Shen Hongcai still didn''t let him go this time. The appointed came forward to pick up chalk and start calculation, hoping to pass this time smoothly.


    Shen Hongcai ordered the names of the two people and suddenly found that one hand was raised high.


    "Qin Huaiyu!" Shen Hongcai looked at Gao Gao and raised his hand in surprise, indicating that it was the ordinary poor student Qin Huaiyu who wanted to perform.


    "This guy is really dead. He should be in the limelight at this time!" many people were in an uproar. Who doesn''t know Qin Huaiyu''s level? If he can do it, they won''t believe it.


    "Are you sure?" Shen Hongcai''s face was a little gloomy. He felt that Qin Huaiyu was making trouble for him.


    "I''m sure!" Qin Huaiyu said proudly. Sao Bao despised the whole class. This kind of small topic closed the abnormal Merton. It''s a small Witch to see a big witch.


    Morton looked at Qin Huaiyu''s Sao Bao and couldn''t help feeling a headache. This guy was in the limelight again.


    Seeing Qin Huaiyu''s insistence, Shen Hongcai asked him to go up.


    Qin Huaiyu deliberately stood beside Kong huisuo. Kong huisuo saw Qin Huaiyu standing beside him and couldn''t help gloating.


    Qin Huaiyu''s level is well known to him. He can''t do arithmetic, but Qin Huaiyu can''t do all of it. He''s even worse than him in arithmetic. This time he had another companion.


    However, to her surprise, Qin Huaiyu picked up chalk and kept brushing. Kong huisuo looked at it curiously, but Qin Huaiyu deliberately covered it.


    "Hum, play tricks."


    Kong huisuo snorted coldly. He didn''t believe Qin Huaiyu could do it.


    To his surprise, only after a while. Qin Huaiyu wrote the answer, threw the chalk in his hand and went down.


    He''s done. Kong huisuo stared at the open space next to him. Wrong! Kong huisuo expected Shen Hongcai to announce that his answer was wrong. However, Shen Hongcai was more shocked than him because the answer written by Qin Huaiyu was completely correct.


    "Well, classmate Qin has made great progress recently. We should learn from him." Shen Hongcai praised dryly. "There is another question below. Which classmate is willing to come up and do it."


    Cheng chumuteng stood up, rushed to the blackboard, brushed three times five divided by two, and wrote the correct answer.


    "No!" many national supervisors wailed, even Chumo, a big guy.


    Then Wei Chi Baolin made a math problem that baffled Kong huisuo, which refreshed everyone''s three views.


    What happened to the world?


    They found that the poor students who had been at the end of the crane in the class unexpectedly counter attacked!


    What''s more sad is that Kong huisuo found that he had become the worst student in mathematics.

 Chapter 79

    PI is the representative of the highest achievement in ancient mathematics, which not only achieved the Taishan status of Zu Chongzhi''s mathematics, but also won the glory of the Zu family for hundreds of years.


    "After reading it, return it immediately! It can''t be damaged!"


    Zu Mingjun handed Merton a yellow ancient book.


    Merton took it in surprise, turned over the title page, closed it quickly, and looked at Zu Mingjun in surprise. It turned out to be Zu Chongzhi''s computational legacy.


    "It''s not appropriate!" Merton shook his head, which was the most precious treasure of the ancestral family.


    "You deserve it!"


    Zu Mingjun said that this is the return of the Zu family for teaching Merton Arabic numerals and enlightening Zu Mingjun to discover parabola.


    "There are the notes of ancestors on conjugation. I know your level of arithmetic is very high. It is estimated to be helpful to you!" Zu Mingjun said.


    "Annotation of conjugation!" Merton looked a little moved. He had heard a lot about conjugation. Later generations recorded that conjugation could not be understood by even academic officials and directly abolished conjugation.


    Guozijian also has textbooks on conjugation. Merton has read them and found that the root of conjugation is the limit method of later generations.


    With Datang''s current level of mathematics, it is indeed obscure and difficult to understand, and there is no theoretical formula support. It only relies on a large amount of data accumulation, which is time-consuming and laborious, and the result is not accurate. It is estimated that other people in the Imperial College can only ha ha except Shen Hongcai.


    Merton couldn''t resist his curiosity and couldn''t help turning it over. He found that the wisdom of the ancients really can''t be underestimated. In this ancestral work, it was mixed with various extremely complex mathematical problems of later generations, and even mentioned the concept of calculus.


    Unfortunately, there are too few people who can accept things that are too advanced. No wonder conjugation has been lost in future generations.


    Merton quickly turned it over from beginning to end and quickly returned the secret script to Zu Mingjun.


    "The wisdom of our ancestors is amazing, but I advise you to forget the things inside and concentrate on studying parabola. In the future, you should have a chance to study these things when you are 70 and 80 years old, so as to save a lot of good time." Merton said kindly.


    Now the basis of Datang''s mathematics is not up to the level of studying such a profound mathematical problem. If you insist, you can only waste your time.


    "This was originally studied by those old guys." Zu Mingjun whispered. However, his eyes were slightly regretful. Obviously, he also wanted to understand the legacy of his ancestors and become famous in one fell swoop, but even Merton, who was much better at mathematics, said so, and he had to give up.


    "Can you understand?" Zu Mingjun asked.


    Merton smiled and didn''t answer.


    Although he knows the methods, arithmetic is developed step by step. If he encourages it, it will only destroy the foundation of arithmetic. Moreover, these profound problems are of no use in Datang and are not as practical as the parabola in front of him.


    Qin Huaiyu and his classmates showed great enthusiasm for Mathematics in a short time. For the first time, they joined Zu Mingjun''s parabola experiment. Of course, it is more likely that they heard that the equipment for today''s experiment is to let them play Cuju.


    "Attention, everyone! Cuju is coming, look at the young master!" Wei Chi Baolin roared and kicked Cuju into the sky with a run-up. This guy is as strong as an ox, just like an animal, tireless and energetic.


    Zu Mingjun took the paper and watched Cuju climb in the air. When it reached the highest point, it fell in a parabolic state! It fell to the ground and popped up a long way.


    "The height is two feet and three feet."


    Merton stood in the middle, watched the Cuju pass through the line between two and three feet high, and reported a relatively close height.


    "The landing point is thirty feet and two feet!" Qin Huaiyu shouted at the landing point. His data are much more accurate. Where the landing point is, he will report how far it is.


    When Zu Mingjun heard the cry, he quickly recorded the data in the booklet. Looking at the dense booklet, it was obvious that he had recorded it many times.


    At the landing point, Chumo picks up the Cuju, kicks it out at the landing point, and the Cuju crosses the air again.


    "Eight feet high," Merton shouted again.


    "The landing point is twenty feet and one." seeing the distance of the landing point, Zu Mingjun quickly wrote down the data again. Looking at the dense data in his pamphlet, it is obvious that he has recorded a lot.


    Through a large number of experiments, it is a real number to approach again and again. This is the conjugation handed down by the ancestors from generation to generation. Of course, there is also its own unique calculation method. Although it is clumsy, as long as it is persevered, it will be able to make achievements.


    "Are you ready?" Chumo kicks Cuju away again and yells.


    Rao Shihe and Yuchi Baolin are strong, but they can''t stand playing Cuju hundreds of times in a row. They are tired and panting.


    "Well, ten more groups, and I''ll treat you to fried chicken!" Zu Mingjun shouted.


    "You''re really cunning. You''re in our shop and invite us to eat!" Wei Chi Baolin looked at Zu Mingjun contemptuously and kicked Cuju away.


    "That''s not to take care of your business!" Zu Mingjun took advantage of it.


    "Cut! Use you?" Qin Huaiyu shouted in the distance.


    Since the fried chicken chops and fried chicken legs were launched, they have been widely praised, especially the students in the Imperial College and the teenagers in Chang''an. They line up all the way every day and don''t worry about business at all.


    Cuju came and went in the air, and soon ten groups of data were recorded. Zu Mingjun looked at his pamphlet. With the help of these two animals, today''s data has been collected, which can support him for a few days.


    Merton wiped his sweat and walked to Zu Mingjun. Looking at the dense data in the booklet and Zu Mingjun''s confident smile, he believed that the parabola was no longer a problem for Zu Mingjun and could be summarized in a certain time.


    At this time, an unexpected man appeared in front of Merton.


    "Merton, I want to learn new arithmetic from you?" Kong huisuo came to Merton and said with expectation.


    In fact, Merton had already seen Kong huisuo hovering around, but he didn''t expect to find himself.


    With the character of Qin Huaiyu Sao Bao, the secret of the rapid improvement of their arithmetic level was soon known to everyone. They boasted in front of Guozi supervisor every day that they could learn arithmetic so simply. In addition to their talent and intelligence, the exotic arithmetic taught by Merton may also play a role.


    "Played a role?" the person who heard this looked contemptuously at the flaunting Qin Huaiyu,


    They don''t know what this guy''s previous level is. I''m afraid it doesn''t play a role, but most of the credit is this exotic arithmetic!


    It can teach the scum with a very poor level of mathematics into a learning bully in a short time. This foreign mathematics is almost deified in the Imperial College.


    It was Merton, the son of the Mohist school, who mastered this kind of foreign arithmetic. Many people couldn''t open their face to go to Merton. However, Kong huisuo is different. Since Qin Huaiyu''s arithmetic achievements have improved by leaps and bounds, Kong huisuo has become the lowest among the prison students. He has no way out, and all his hopes are concentrated in Merton''s foreign arithmetic.


    "Of course! This kind of arithmetic is brought back by the ancestors of Mohism from Tianzhu. It is not unique to Mohism. Everyone can learn it," Merton said.


    "Everyone can learn?" Kong huisuo was surprised. He didn''t expect to get this foreign arithmetic easily.


    "That''s true. Brother Mo really teaches us arithmetic knowledge for free. Here are my notes. Take them first. If you don''t know anything, you can ask me." Zu Mingjun proved Merton''s words, took out a note of his own memory from his bag and handed it to Kong huisuo.


    "Thank you!" Kong huisuo said sincerely with his notes.


    Watching Kong huisuo leave with his notes, Merton smiled. Whether it was ordering Zu Mingjun to study parabola or teaching Arabic numerals and multiplication formulas, it was spreading the seeds of arithmetic.


    Only when mathematics has been really spread, can Mohism relying on mathematics really flourish.

 Chapter 80

    In this era when entertainment is very scarce in Datang, the popularity of Cuju can be imagined, especially among another group of Guozi supervised students with strong hormone secretion.


    In fact, Polo is the most prosperous in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that Li Shimin is also very keen on playing polo. The place in the Imperial College is too small to play. Moreover, the doctor of the Imperial College does not allow people to worship horses all day, so Cuju has become the best choice.


    "Let''s go. We must do the guys who turn over the armour house today."


    After Qin Huaiyu finished the parabola experiment, they happily fought with their old enemies.


    Even Zu Mingjun is also a loyal Cuju lover. When he returned to the prison and put his ancestral secret, he directly took Merton to join the war and have a friendly match. Unfortunately, they are both rookies and don''t want them. In the end, one of the two sides was one. Merton was unfortunately assigned to Qin Huaiyu.


    "Bang!"


    Cuju flew into the sky, and a group of walking hormones flew by.


    "This is a friendly match?" Merton hid at the edge of the stadium. He was also known as the little prince of football in future generations.


    However, in this field where the rules are unknown, there is no referee, human flesh flies everywhere, there is no protective measures, and a group of animals are running wildly and desperately volatilizing their hormones, all Merton''s skills have lost their function.


    "Yeah!"


    Chumo, relying on his strong figure, resists the other three to score points. He roars in high spirits and runs to Merton''s face.


    "Merton hurry up, if you don''t suck up, we''ll say that the other side has given up!" cried Cheng Mo Gao.


    Merton shook his head in horror and didn''t go to the field.


    Joke, a gentleman doesn''t stand under the dangerous wall. In just two quarters of an hour, the two teams have lost three people. His small body can only be reduced to cannon fodder.


    "Hahaha, the Mohist School counselled!" everyone in Jiashe''s group was disheartened and despised and laughed at Merton.


    "You''re not good at it! If you follow my rules, you''ll cry every minute!" Morton said angrily.


    "Merton, you can''t be tough with your bare mouth. Men still need to be strong!" Qin Huaiyu was full of meat jokes.


    Zumingjun grinned. Unfortunately, this guy didn''t play for long. A Cuju accidentally fell in front of him and kicked it out.


    With a scream, Cuju flew into the sky, while Zu Mingjun fell down with his legs in his arms.


    "All right!" Merton was shocked and hurried to Zu Mingjun. Zu Mingjun held his ankle and bit his gums. The people who were kicking up stopped one after another and surrounded him.


    "Maybe it''s a fracture! Hurry and send it to Hua Lao." Merton checked Zu Mingjun''s ankle and found that it was swollen and tall. Such unprotected sports are easy to get injured, but Zu Mingjun is unlucky and seems to be seriously injured!


    Chumo is the strongest. All the people work together to put the ancestral king on his back.


    Chumo rushes out of the Imperial College with zumingjun on his back. He is facing the Imperial College diagonally opposite and close to the ink technology exhibition. A big sign is waving in the wind.


    "Mo hospital!"


    Yes, that''s what Merton said in the ink technology exhibition. The cooperation between Mohists and doctors. Thanks to Li Chengqian''s crown prince title, he directly presented this land to doctors, with an area three times that of the ink technology exhibition. Otherwise, Merton would have money and could not buy such a large land here.


    Old Hua came and diagnosed Zu Mingjun carefully.


    "It''s just a bone fracture. After being cast, you can''t walk for half a month and won''t leave any sequelae!" old Hua reported good news in misfortune.


    The plaster was made by Merton when he was making chalk. Just when the ink hospital was established, Merton recommended it to HuaLao.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton and others were relieved, as long as it was all right.


    "Thank you, doctor Hua."


    It can be cured in half a month without leaving any sequelae. At the medical level of Datang, the name of Chinese miracle doctor is indeed worthy of its name.


    Soon several medical apprentices came up to help clean the wound, fixed the affected area with willow branches, put on plaster, and wrapped Zu Mingjun''s feet with brand-new linen bandages.


    "Oh! What''s the matter?" Li Chengqian appeared here unexpectedly.


    "Why are you here?" people were surprised.


    "Mo hospital has opened. Of course I want to see it." Li Chengqian said with a smile. In the final analysis, the largest shareholder of this Mexican hospital is Li Chengqian, who contributed the most land value.


    Li Chengqian looked at the plaster and bandage on Zu Mingjun''s feet and couldn''t help nodding. The accompanying Donggong doctor was full of praise when he saw the use of plaster wicker splint.


    "This is the best way to treat bone injuries." the grey haired doctor of the imperial medical department was so excited that he turned Zu Mingjun''s feet over and over to have a thorough look.


    Li Chengqian''s confidence in this new Mexican hospital immediately increased. Just after opening, he developed such a wonderful plan. I think this Mexican hospital is really outstanding.


    Thinking of this, I can''t help feeling very sorry. If he had such things when he just fell down, he wouldn''t have the problem of foot disease.


    The clean and tidy ward, the newly trained male nurses in white coats and masks, and the knowledge of disease prevention hung on the wall made the doctor of the imperial medical department close his mouth.


    He found that there were far more doctors than the Pacific Medical Department.


    "Hua Lao, well done!"


    Merton couldn''t help exclaiming that in just a few days, the hospital had taken shape and operated normally.


    "I don''t dare to take credit. It''s all due to the great help of the young master and his highness!" old Hua knew that if Li Chengqian hadn''t donated such a large piece of land, someone from Mojia village would have helped and given plaster and other magic skills to treat bone injuries.


    In Chang''an City, where there is an inch of land and an inch of gold, he can''t afford such a large ink hospital. Thinking of this place, old Hua can''t help feeling very much. He didn''t think he could have such a chance to have a big hospital in Chang''an city.


    "However, since the Mexican hospital published free information on foot diseases in Chang''an City, a large number of patients have come to see a doctor, and several of them are very similar to your highness''s. after I give them detailed diagnosis and treatment, combined with their cases, I will give your highness targeted rehabilitation training." Hua said to Li Chengqian.


    "Thank you, doctor Hua!" Li Chengqian said in surprise.


    Old Hua gave Li Chengqian another detailed examination. He was convinced that Li Chengqian''s original foot disease did not last long, and those doctors in Taiyuan hospital did not eat dry food. Although Li Chengqian could not be cured, it did not further worsen Li Chengqian''s foot disease.


    In addition to the foreign medical knowledge that Merton passed on to his Mohist school, old Hua is convinced that Li Chengqian''s foot disease has great hope of recovery.

 Chapter 81

    The hospital is on fire!


    Many people were skeptical when the Mexican hospital treated foot diseases and fractures for free, but after all, foot diseases are only a disease of a few people, and not many hospitals care about them. Fractures are also troublesome. If you are not careful, you will leave the problem of inconvenient hands and feet at the foot of the slope, which often leads to disputes


    But one by one, the fracture patients recovered and left the hospital without any sequelae. Only then did the hospital in Chang''an City exclaim at the wolf.


    But it''s too late! When a veteran with a leg amputation stood up and walked again with a prosthetic, it immediately detonated the whole Chang''an city.


    "Doctor Hua!"


    "Hua Tuo is alive!"


    "Doctor Hua''s medical skills are comparable to those of his ancestors!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, HuaLao''s reputation spread throughout Chang''an City, and Mo hospital was immediately overcrowded.


    As a result, the entire hospital in Chang''an City closed down. Mr. Hua took advantage of the situation and took the initiative to recruit some doctors with real materials. In a short time, the number of doctors in Mo hospital increased threefold.


    Directly from the previous special orthopedic hospital to a comprehensive hospital, the whole Mexican hospital really stood firm.


    But more people noticed that there was the shadow of Mohism in both prosthetics and plaster, and the cooperation between Mohism and doctors had such incredible effects.


    Many people focus their attention on the highlight of Sino Mexican medical cooperation in the ink technology exhibition - the ultimate secret oxygen of the secret technology of living fish. As long as oxygen can be developed, it will be a ten thousand bonus, and the place to receive the award is obviously the ink hospital.


    Today is the day of Zu Mingjun''s review. Accompanied by Merton, he came to Mo hospital again. There was an endless stream of people coming to see a doctor.


    "Come this way, please!"


    A security guard deliberately exposed the prosthetic limb and showed Merton the way with vigorous steps. This person is Merton hospital. "It''s kind and rewarded!" Merton couldn''t help but admire Liu Da''s loyalty and know how to repay his kindness.


    Old Hua nodded. Liu Da''s story touched him a lot and made him more confident in Mo hospital.


    "Master Zu has fully recovered!" old Hua checked it carefully and said positively to Zu Mingjun.


    The bandage peeled off layer by layer, revealing white plaster. Dr. Hua gently knocked several times with a small wooden mallet, and the plaster cracked one by one, revealing his intact ankle.


    Zu Mingjun took a few steps slowly and lost the feeling of plaster. However, he was able to walk fast as usual.


    "Thank you, Hua Lao!" Zu Mingjun said sincerely.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Young master, go slowly! I won''t give it away!"


    Not far from the gate, Hua Lao stopped.


    "Oh! Is old Hua afraid of those who receive silver at the door?" Merton looked at old Hua with a smile.


    Walton was full of Hao Ran. He didn''t expect Merton to know all about it.


    "Well, let''s go together! Today we''ll solve these messy things together!" Merton said, taking the lead out of the door of the hospital.


    Old Hua watched Merton go out and followed him.


    "The miracle doctor Hua is coming out!" as soon as Hua Lao Gang appeared, a group of people gathered around the door of Mo hospital.


    "Doctor Hua, I''m here to receive the Wanguan reward. I invented oxygen!" a middle-aged man dressed as a doctor said proudly, holding up the sealed ceramic bottle in his hand.


    "Doctor Hua, I invented oxygen in my bottle first!" an old man who looked like an old farmer shouted.


    "It''s me. There''s oxygen in my bottle!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In an instant, more than a dozen people thought that they were oxygen in the bottle and asked for a Wanguan bonus.


    "All step back, don''t crowd!" Liu Da dragged his prosthetic limb and tried to maintain discipline.


    "Doctor Hua, you don''t want to deceive us! You don''t want to pay the reward!" the middle-aged doctor coaxed.


    "Just take the reward quickly!" shouted the old farmer.


    "How do you know that oxygen is in your bottle?" Murton asked loudly.


    "Who are you?" the middle-aged doctor looked at Merton warily.


    "I''m Merton, and I''m the one who issues the reward. You want money from me," Merton said.


    "Ah! He is the Mexican family!" the crowd exclaimed. They didn''t expect the famous Mexican family to be the young man in front of them.


    Ink technology exhibition made Merton famous in Chang''an City, but only those who really met Merton at the venue. Most people don''t know what Merton looks like.


    "How do you know that there is no oxygen in our bottle?" the old farmer asked.


    Merton smiled and said, "I really don''t know what the oxygen in your hand is, but a small experiment can determine whether the oxygen in your hand is true or false."


    The person who received the reward suddenly appeared in a moment of panic. Many people were sweating and staring at Merton''s every move.


    Merton nodded to Zu Mingjun. Zu Mingjun picked up a fire fold and blew it gently to ignite it.


    Zu Mingjun ignited the thin wooden strip he carried with him, put it in a box and gently covered it.


    "I think oxygen supports people''s life, which is also the reason why fire can burn! Please see, the wooden strip went out soon in the box. It can be seen that the wooden strip has consumed all the oxygen in the air!"


    When Zu Mingjun opened the box, a wisp of smoke curled up, and the flame in the box had already been extinguished.


    The examples given by Merton are easy to understand, and even these things have been considered in the process of studying oxygen.


    "Therefore, I infer that the oxygen that can support people''s breathing must also be able to rekindle the wood strip with dead fire! So I will unconditionally exchange rewards for the oxygen in the first bottle that can rekindle the wood strip with dead fire."


    Merton took out a piece of wood with sparks from the box and gave it to Liu da.


    The result was very tragic. Nine of the ten bottles did not respond to the wooden strips. It was just like the air. Among them, there was the middle-aged doctor who jumped the most.


    Unexpectedly, the wooden strip in the old farmer''s bottle went out!


    There was a burst of laughter in the crowd, and the old farmer blushed, feeling a little ashamed.


    However, just when everyone was gloating, Merton''s words shocked the whole audience.


    "Reward the old man a hundred times!"


    Ah! The whole audience was in an uproar. It was clear that the old farmer had the worst performance, and Mars went out directly! Why did you suddenly get a reward.


    "He obviously failed too! Why give him a reward?" the middle-aged doctor refused.


    "If you have the chance to make oxygen successfully, this old man is a hundred times more likely than you to succeed!" Merton said positively.


    The old man can collect oxygen free gas. At least he is ahead of everyone in sealing technology. He can''t even seal well. How can he make oxygen.


    A farce soon ended. Everyone knew the standard of oxygen, that is, it could rekindle the dead fire. I believe no one would disturb the hospital for a long time.

 Chapter 82

    The name of Mohist school once again spread all over Chang''an City, but this time Merton was indeed passively famous.


    Zu Mingjun was injured and lying in bed. He was bored. He was inspired and immediately integrated the parabola.


    "No wonder later generations often say that if you want to succeed, you must endure loneliness," Merton said.


    Although in Merton''s view, the parabola is still very simple, with only positive coordinates, starting point, landing point, vertex, and the axis of symmetry added by the inspiration of Zu Mingjun.


    However, in this era, it has been a great achievement. After receiving the news, the ancestral family was overjoyed and immediately rushed a lot of gray haired elders from Fan Yang''s hometown.


    The elders of the ancestral family united with a series of famous figures in Chang''an city to solemnly announce that the legitimate son of the eldest son of the ancestral family, Zu Mingjun, has developed a parabola in Chang''an city.


    In the era of almost stagnant mathematical research, it has been a great event in the literary world of Chang''an. The name of the ancestral family once again caused a sensation in Chang''an city.


    "The ancestral family really deserves to be called an aristocratic family of mathematics! Its ancestors worked out the PI, and now later generations of famous ancestors have developed parabola."


    "Who says the ancestral family''s conjugation is obscure and difficult to understand? It''s better not to learn it. In my opinion, their level is not up to."


    "It is said that Zu Mingjun is a 15-year-old boy. Over time, Zu Mingjun will be able to compare with his ancestors."


    "But how can I say? I heard that the reason why Zu Mingjun was able to study the parabola was because Mohist Zi smashed it with walnuts." someone said mysteriously.


    "Impossible!" the listener opened his mouth in surprise!


    "I have friends in the Imperial College. It''s no secret in the Imperial College. They all know it. They also saw mojiazi help Zu Mingjun demonstrate the parabola with Cuju."


    For a while, the legend of Chang''an city was in a uproar. Mohist Zi woke up Zu Mingjun and suddenly became the focus gossip of Chang''an city.


    When someone personally asked the grandparents about it, the gray haired grandparents rejected it!


    "Zu Mingjun did suddenly realize the parabola from the walnuts thrown by mojiazi, but he was not woken up by mojiazi with walnuts."


    The words of the patriarch of the ancestral family confirmed that it was true that Mozi threw walnuts, but more people were unwilling to accept this mundane story. How can the legendary story of Mozi waking up the famous monarch of the ancestral family be attractive.


    "If I were hit by the Mohist school, I might be able to open my mind. Maybe I could develop oxygen overnight. Everything is mine!" someone said whimsically.


    "Cut! Just you, whether you can wake up with a stone or not!"


    However, some people didn''t give up. They often wandered in front of the Mexican family, which made Merton nervous. They directly inserted their hands into their arms. These talents left disappointed.


    "According to me, it''s not necessarily walnuts that wake up. It must be walnuts that replenish the brain. This will make Zu Mingjun inspired and realize the parabola."


    "Yes, yes, Mozi must like walnuts, so walnuts are always available at home. Think about how clever Mozi is. He invented the secret skills of live fish, Qu Yuan plow, columbine and artificial incubation technology. Where did he get so much brain power? He must have been made up by eating walnuts." a black literati suddenly felt that he had found an amazing fact from another angle.


    "Ah! What are you doing?" the black scribe asked quickly when he saw his companion running out.


    "Ah! No, I''m going to buy some walnuts to mend!" the voice of my companion came from a distance.


    "Wait for me! I feel I have to mend!" the scribe in black hurriedly chased up.


    The rumor of walnut tonifying brain soon spread all over Chang''an city. For a while, even walnuts sold like crazy.


    "It may be too risky to be smashed by the Mohist school. Maybe it''s stupid, but there''s nothing wrong with eating walnuts." many people thought.


    Many young children at home and parents with poor studies have bought walnuts to make up for their children.


    Even now, if you give gifts to someone''s house or a basket of walnuts, the host''s house will immediately treat you as a guest of honor and treat you with good wine and food.


    "Click, click!"


    The three guards smashed the walnuts desperately. Qin Huaiyu picked up a handful of walnuts and stuffed them into his mouth. Soon walnut shells were thrown all over the floor.


    The great cause of hot-air balloon they gave high hopes fell into a bottleneck and encountered a big problem, air leakage. It happened that there was a rumor of walnut brain tonifying in Chang''an city. The three decided to make up more brain power.


    No wonder the three were so anxious. At the beginning, they and Zu Mingjun got Merton''s advice at the same time. As a result, Zu Mingjun became famous alone soon.


    The three of them made no progress at all except that they expanded Kong Mingdeng many times.


    And they stubbornly insisted that this was their chance to remain famous in history. They just invited their craftsmen to help, and resolutely refused to let Merton help.


    "Do you have any idea?" Qin Huaiyu turns around and asks Chumo?


    Chumo grabs a handful of walnuts and puts them in his mouth. He thinks about it and shakes his head.


    Qin huaiyudun was so angry that his nose was crooked. There''s no way. What do you think.


    Seeing that the walnut shell had been lost on the ground, Qin Huaiyu and the three still had nothing to do with the air leakage of the hot-air balloon.


    "It must be those walnut merchants who publicized. It''s no use for me to eat so many walnuts!" Qin Huaiyu kicked a pile of walnut shells in front of him.


    Merton rolled his eyes and said, "walnut kernel just looks like a brain. Where can you grow a brain? Don''t listen to those unscrupulous businessmen."


    "Isn''t it of any use? Didn''t you become so smart by eating more walnuts?" Wei Chi Baolin Weng said. He is usually the most stupid and is most enthusiastic about the ways to become smart.


    He bought these walnuts and bought three sacks as soon as he bought them. They only consumed about ten kilograms in an afternoon.


    "I just liked walnuts at that time. Is it useful? It''s still a little?" Merton thought about it and said.


    The three people immediately pulled their ears seriously and listened.


    "Stop hunger!" Merton said jokingly.


    "Get out!"


    The three shouted angrily.


    "Merton, come and hit me, and see if I can be inspired to make hot-air balloons!" Chumo grits his teeth and holds his head high with generosity.


    "Your skull is too hard. It''s like an elm head. You can''t use walnuts. You can''t wake you up! It''s possible to use bricks!" Merton bumped the green brick in his hand and looked at the three with a bad smile.


    Chumofei jumps up and dodges. He is not smart, but he is not stupid. It''s hard to say whether he can be smart or not, but it''s certain that his head will explode.


    "What can we do to prevent air leakage?" Qin Huaiyu sighed,


    This is related to their chance to remain famous in history and their position in Chang''an dandies.


    "If you want to solve the air leakage, maybe someone can help you." Merton couldn''t help thinking of the old farmer who could collect a bottle of unidentified gas next to the Mexican hospital.

 Chapter 83

    "See you, master Mo, three young masters!" Lu Ding bowed.


    "He''s the one you''re talking about!" Qin Huaiyu looked at Lu Ding in surprise. Lu Ding was still a pair of old peasant clothes. When he spoke, he looked like a farmer facing the Loess and facing the sky all his life, and he also called himself an old farmer.


    "Young master, if you say that other old farmers may not be able to do it, but for sealing, the old farmers still have family skills." Lu Ding said confidently.


    When Merton sent someone to invite Lu Ding over, he had explained his intention to him. Lu Ding knew what his job was?


    "OK, let you try!" Qin Huaiyu can only be a living horse doctor now, and Lu Ding is also recommended by Merton, and he has more confidence in him from the bottom of his heart.


    With the addition of Lu Ding, the progress of hot-air balloon has been accelerated a lot.


    It has to be said that Lu Ding does have a unique skill. After applying several layers of glue extracted from some unknown things on the cloth of the hot-air balloon, it not only did not make the cloth stiff, but increased the flexibility of the cloth. Even the fire prevention effect was improved a lot, at least there was little water leakage.


    That night, the first hot-air balloon with a height of more than one person was successfully launched! And smoothly brought up a five kilogram hanging basket.


    "As long as the old farmer is given enough time, he will be able to make the kind of hot-air balloon that the young master wants!" Lu Ding patted his chest and promised.


    Merton looked at Lu Ding, who was skilled but claimed to be an old farmer with a funny face. But every time this guy makes all kinds of glue, he keeps it a secret. Honest and with the unique cunning of farmers.


    "OK! As long as it can be made, I won''t hesitate to reward you!" Qin Huaiyu said excitedly as he watched the small hot-air balloon take off slowly.


    Since the ink technology exhibition, Qin Huaiyu has been deeply infatuated with the attention of thousands of people. Unfortunately, the reincarnation of overlord is only with the help of Merton''s pulley block, which is not his real ability, but this hot-air balloon is completely his own masterpiece. Uh huh, maybe there is a little inspiration and help from the ink family! But that doesn''t matter.


    They seemed to see themselves flying through Chang''an City in a hot-air balloon and enjoying the admiration of everyone.


    "Elder brother is the one who is about to go to heaven!" Qin Huaiyu three people are full of joy.


    In the following days, Qin Huaiyu went to the Imperial College normally during the day, but once they finished their homework, they immediately ran to the manor where they made hot-air balloons.


    The location of Qin Huaiyu''s manor is also very mysterious. In the southwest of Chang''an City, the location is very remote and there are not many people around. Moreover, in order to keep secrets, the three guys make hot-air balloons during the day and carry out hot-air balloon experiments at night. Up to now, the confidentiality work has been done very well.


    Merton also took the time to see it several times and found that the hot-air balloon has become larger and larger. When it is full of hot air, it can even reach the size of a house, and the weight it carries is becoming heavier and heavier. The latest load-carrying capacity has reached about 100 kg. According to this, the hot-air balloon that can carry living people is not far away.


    Finally, it was ten days off again. One morning, Qin Huaiyu mysteriously pulled Merton to the manor.


    "Dangdang!"


    Qin Huaiyu led Merton into the manor.


    As soon as Merton entered, he immediately saw a huge dry hot-air balloon on the ground and a huge hanging basket next to it. A stove in the hanging basket was burning and emitting a lot of hot gas,


    "That''s it?" Merton asked uncertainly, looking at such an extremely primitive hot-air balloon.


    "Don''t worry, young master. According to the experiment last night, this hot-air balloon can lift a weight of 500 kilograms by three feet." Chumo said proudly.


    "And the stove uses good charcoal. Adding charcoal once can burn for more than half an hour," Lu Ding added.


    Merton had to look at Lu Ding with admiration. At the current level, he could make hot-air balloons. Merton believed that even the skilled craftsman who directed the Mojia village himself was nothing more than that.


    "Yes, indeed, he deserves to be the descendant of the public loser!" Merton praised.


    "Public loser! Public loser class?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Lu Ding in surprise and said in surprise that the craftsman like the old farmer was the descendant of the famous public loser.


    Lu Ding! It''s not surprising that Merton revealed his details. After all, the Mohists and the public losers had a deep grudge and knew each other''s craft.


    Lu Ding said with a sad face: "the old farmer just said that Gongshu''s family abandoned him. He has no face to use Gongshu''s surname again. If the young son of the family was not ill and in urgent need of money, he would not make a fool of himself in front of the Mexican youth."


    Lu Ding was obviously not sure whether his bottle of gas was oxygen, but everyone thought the same at that time. Since oxygen was made for the first time, no one knew what it looked like. What if his own gas was oxygen


    But I didn''t expect to meet Merton. An experiment of Mars resurgence revealed them one by one. Just when he was depressed, Merton directly rewarded him with 100 yuan, which brought his young son back from the gate of hell.


    Since it is determined that Lu Ding is the descendant of the public defeat class, Qin Huaiyu''s confidence immediately increased!


    "I''m going to have a formal try this morning," Qin Huaiyu said eagerly.


    A large amount of hot air filled in, and the two layers of cloth on the ground began to support a circle, and the volume expanded rapidly. It was the size of two houses. Under the atmospheric pressure, the hot-air balloon slowly floated and left the ground. It seemed to struggle to fly with a basket, but it was led by a huge cable.


    "Wow!"


    Even Qin Huaiyu and the three of them were the first time to see a hot-air balloon take off during the day.


    This is the masterpiece of the three of them and the opportunity for them to remain famous in history, but it is clear that the opportunity for them to remain famous in history is in front of them, but the three hesitated.


    Everyone wants to be the first person to take a hot-air balloon, but he is afraid of the unknown high altitude.


    "What if it floats to the top and falls down?" Qin Huaiyu scratched her ears and cheeks and said in a worried way.


    As soon as they say this, Chumo and Wei Chi baolinton retreat, but they don''t want Qin Huaiyu to be the first to take a hot-air balloon.


    Merton secretly had fun in his heart. He didn''t expect the three people to have such a big brain hole, but he was also willing to give them a little pressure. After all, there have been accidents with overheated balloons in future generations.


    The three looked at Merton together. Merton immediately spread his hands and said, "don''t look at me. Anyway, I haven''t been to heaven."


    The three were helpless and muttered for a while. The final result of the discussion was to put a sheep on it to see if there was any danger in the sky. After all, compared with the history, their own life is the most important.


    Soon, a big black sheep was moved and tied in a basket.


    "Start to release the rope!" at the command, Lu Ding personally came forward and untied the first cable fixing the hanging basket.


    Without the tie, the hot-air balloon slowly took off. Big black sheep also noticed something wrong and began to scream bitterly. Qin Huaiyu''s three hearts were straight and fluffy. He secretly congratulated himself that he didn''t go up.


    There were five cables in total, and the longest one was five feet. One cable was loosened, and the hot-air balloon soon climbed to five feet high.


    Looking up from below, the size of the hot-air balloon has become half smaller. Only a loud and shrill cry of the black sheep came down. The three people were slightly relieved that they were still alive.


    However, at the moment, an accident suddenly happened. A strong wind blew, and the last cable was suddenly broken. The hot air ball carrying the big black sheep staggered up more than ten feet, and began to float with the wind.

 Chapter 84

    According to the records of later Tang history, during the Zhenguan period, a fireball flew into Chang''an City and floated for more than ten miles.


    Qin Huaiyu and his wife have made a name in history, but at the moment, they don''t feel very excited, but a feeling of great disaster.


    According to the original script, they first experimented with a big black sheep to see if there was any danger, so they pulled down the hot-air balloon.


    After confirming that there is no danger, invite all the dandies in Chang''an City and go to heaven in front of them to show off.


    When I thought that everything was going on in order, the big black sheep was shouting with great vitality. I didn''t know that the cable was broken!


    The four people looked at the hot-air balloon rising higher and higher with half of the cable dangling. The big black sheep, aware of the greater danger, barked more bitterly, even at such a high altitude.


    "How much charcoal did you add?" Qin Huaiyu asked. Yuchi Jingde did the work of adding charcoal.


    "It''s full!" Yuchi Jingde said humbly. In fact, in order to make the hot-air balloon fly longer, he


    Because they found that the direction of the hot-air balloon was drifting towards the interior of Chang''an city.


    "No!"


    The three of them were surprised and finally knew why they had a feeling of great disaster.


    Although they know it''s a hot-air balloon and its principle, the citizens of Chang''an city don''t know it! Such a huge thing floats in the air, mixed with the shrill cry of the big black sheep. How can you think and how strange!


    "Hurry up!" Merton shouted, waking the stunned three.


    "Boom!"


    Four fast horses galloped out! Flying in the direction of the hot-air balloon.


    "Baa Baa!"


    The big black sheep felt that his situation was becoming more and more dangerous, unwilling to accept his fate, and shouted even louder.


    "Where''s the sheep cry!" a mutton vendor is most sensitive to this kind of sheep cry. It''s this kind of cry every time he kills a sheep.


    This time, although the sheep''s cry was intermittent, its sad voice was ten times better than the sheep to be slaughtered.


    "It can''t be a ghost sheep!" the vendor suddenly aroused his spirits and looked around with a guilty heart.


    "Where''s the ghost in the daytime!" the vendor laughed at himself and laughed at his timidity. He cut the mutton and handed it to the customer, but found that the customer unconsciously took the mutton, but his body suddenly froze and looked up at the sky.


    Not only the customer, but also all the customers around and other vendors looked up at the sky one by one.


    "What''s the matter?"


    The mutton vendor was full of excitement one by one, and consciously it became more and more strange.


    Looking along the public''s line of sight, the peddler looked up and saw a huge sphere flying over his head. With the flickering light of fire, the bleak sheep cry was particularly strange.


    "Bang bang!"


    The mutton in the customer''s hand fell to the ground.


    "Clang!"


    The mutton vendor''s boning knife fell to the ground,


    "Jingle!"


    A lot of things fell to the ground, but the people were unconscious and looked at the huge sphere in the air.


    "Da Da!"


    When the mutton vendor heard the shrill sheep cry, he only felt that the sheep soul had risen to heaven, and his heart was very frightened.


    "Sheep... Sheep fairy!"


    The vendor stammered in horror.


    The customer who bought mutton was an old man in his seventies. He couldn''t help but flop and kneel on the ground.


    "The sheep fairy is on the top. The old man just likes to eat mutton. If you want revenge, find this sheep killer! Let the old man go!" the 70 year old man prayed hurriedly and sold the mutton vendor without hesitation.


    At the moment, the mutton vendor ignored the trouble of the old man and knelt on the ground in fear.


    "The sheep fairy is on the top. I have to kill sheep to make a living. I hope the sheep fairy can see clearly. In the future, he will change his evil ways and turn right. He will no longer kill a sheep and worship a sheep fairy in the future."


    Mutton vendors are about to cry. Isn''t it just killing a sheep and moving out all the immortals?


    The people around were also frightened. In Datang, mutton is expensive. Who hasn''t eaten mutton.


    He was about to apologize to the sheep fairy when he ran by on a fast horse.


    "Get out of the way, get out of the way. The sky is the Kongming lamp put by my family. Has anyone seen where to run?" a young man rode a tall horse with bright teeth, but everyone hated him very much. He was Qin Huaiyu.


    According to Merton''s relief method, it is being publicized everywhere that this is Kongming lamp to avoid causing panic among the people of Chang''an city.


    "Kong Mingdeng?"


    The peddler is stupid, so is the old man.


    The people in the street were speechless for a while. The Tang Dynasty of Kong Mingdeng was not a strange thing, and the sky floated so far that it was just like Kong Mingdeng from a distance?


    It''s just that people''s Kongming lamp is only one foot in size and goes to heaven with a blessing note.


    Your family is good. It''s the size of two houses at once. What''s the matter with the shrill sheep barking?


    "The sheep at home are naughty and run up!" Qin Huaiyu said with a dry smile.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Everyone can''t help vomiting blood. Your reason is too far fetched.


    Qin Huaiyu didn''t dare to stay long, so he hurried to ride along the direction of Kong Mingdeng''s floating.


    "Get out of the way, get out of the way, my Kong Mingdeng ran away with the sheep!"


    Qin Huaiyu shouted all the way and chased down the streets of Chang''an city


    Looking at Qin Huaiyu''s departure, the old man and the mutton vendor looked at each other. They had just sworn whether to eat or sell the mutton!


    Not only Qin Huaiyu, but also Chumo, Wei Chi, Baolin, Merton, Tie''an and other guards, and even the old man Lu Ding joined the ranks of refuting the rumor.


    But it was only a drop in the bucket for the commotion they caused.


    The legend of sheep fairy became more and more popular in Chang''an city. More and more people ran out of their homes and chased Kong Mingdeng.


    When Qin Huaiyu and the four met again, they had chased the hot-air balloon and passed it to less than half of Chang''an City, and the hot-air balloon had no intention of landing.


    "Don''t you think this place is a little familiar?" Wei Chi Baolin said a little guilty.


    Qin Huaiyu wiped his sweat and looked around. He was shocked and said, "no, this is Taiping square!"


    "Taiping square!" that''s where they often come. Of course, they know how far this place is from the Imperial City, just two streets apart.


    "Stop flying!"


    "Sheep fairy, please! Stop!"


    Qinhuaiyu three people also doubt whether there is really a sheep fairy, deliberately in the whole them.


    "Amitabha, jade emperor, old gentleman in heaven......"


    Chumo even asks all the immortals to escape.


    "However, neither the sheep fairy nor the immortals in the sky heard the prayers of the four people. The hot-air balloon was still floating strongly and swaying to the southwest side of the imperial city.


    Suddenly, the four people looked pale, which made it big.

 Chapter 85

    In fact, Qin Huaiyu City three people have more worry, because the city of Changan has been firmly controlled by Li Shimin, and no wind sways grass can escape his eyelid.


    The fate of the four of them has been doomed since the first moment of the hot-air balloon flying across Chang''an city.


    Tai Chi temple!


    "What''s the matter? Have you ever found out the commotion in Chang''an City?"


    Li Shimin sat down in the Dragon chair and asked in a deep voice.


    Pound immediately bowed down and replied, "Your Majesty, according to the bodyguard''s report, a huge sphere appeared in the sky of Chang''an City, with a little fire and a continuous bleak sheep cry."


    "Hiss!"


    The important minister immediately took a breath. How could this matter reveal something strange? Flying objects appeared out of thin air in the daytime, which was comparable to flying saucers photographed by later generations and caused a sensation in the whole city. That was inevitable.


    "Father Pang, have you ever found out what is in the sky?" Wei Zheng said.


    "I don''t know anything about this, but the citizens of Chang''an are all saying that the sheep fairy has come to life, but there is another saying in Chang''an city." pound hesitated, looked at the military general team and said, "the young master of the Duke of Hubei, the Duke of Lu, the Duke of Yi, and the Mohist son chased this heavenly thing in the street and said that it was their Kongming lamp that flew away!"


    "Kong Mingdeng?"


    Li Shimin suddenly has a toothache. Is there such a large Kongming lamp? And there''s a sheep cry on it.


    "Our boy!" Qin Qiong and others were not calm at once. They didn''t expect that this matter was related to their three sons. However, when they heard that Merton was there, they had already determined that they couldn''t run away from them.


    "Your Majesty, forgive me! I''ll tell you about these smelly boys and ask them to give your majesty a good explanation." Qin Qiong said with a black face and left in a hurry with a fist in her hands,


    Shortly after Qin Qiong left, there was a sudden commotion outside the Tai Chi hall.


    "Tell the emperor that the sheep fairy appears in the southwest of the imperial city!" a bodyguard rushed into the Tai Chi hall and reported.


    "Where is a sheep fairy? That''s Kong Mingdeng!" Cheng Yaojin corrected with a black face.


    Since this matter involves our own children, we can''t talk about gods and ghosts.


    "Is it a sheep fairy or a Kong Mingdeng? You Aiqing, let me go and have a look." Li Shimin shook his sleeves and took the lead out of the Tai Chi hall, and all the officials followed.


    Southeast of the imperial city!


    The ministers were stunned and looked at the huge sphere in the sky. At this time, the charcoal vitality in the stove had begun to consume more than half, and the height of the hot-air balloon had dropped a lot. At this time, the big black sheep had screamed at the top of its lungs, only occasionally uttered one or two screams, which clearly came down.


    Everyone was surprised. The theory of ghosts and gods is still very popular in this era. Ascension is almost everyone''s dream, and the scene in front of us directly collapses people''s world outlook. Even if it is a sheep fairy, it is also a fairy!


    When the immortal comes to the prosperous Tang Dynasty, isn''t it that God favors the Tang Dynasty? It''s auspicious!


    "Cough! This Kongming lamp is really big!" only Cheng Yaojin said in this cheeky way at this time.


    The people rolled their eyes silently. They all saw it with their own eyes. The guy floating in the sky is really like a Kongming lamp that has been expanded many times, but what''s the matter with this tragic sheep cry or two?


    All the ministers of Kong Mingdeng knew that the ministers present were knowledgeable and understood that if Kong Mingdeng really magnified many times, he might be able to do so.


    "Your Majesty, things in the sky have entered the range of the eight bull crossbow and can shoot them down!" Li Junxian, the commander of the hundred horses, reported.


    Baiqi is the guard of the imperial palace. He is responsible for guarding the safety of the imperial palace. Now there is a UFO above the imperial city. Li Junxian''s first reaction is to shoot it down.


    Li Shimin was immediately worthy of being the king of iron and blood. After only hesitating, he nodded and agreed to Li Junxian''s proposal. Even immortals can''t fly wantonly above the palace. No matter what appears above the Imperial City, it is a threat to the imperial palace.


    The eight bull crossbow is the most powerful weapon in the Tang Dynasty. Its huge chassis and tough rope require the joint operation of eight soldiers. It can also be regarded as a heavy weapon in the Tang army


    Because the eight bull crossbow is too heavy, it can only be used to defend the city. There are ten eight bull crossbows at each gate above the Imperial City, which is enough to tear up the incoming enemy.


    The thumb thick arrow is pressed in the slot, and the eight bull crossbow is ready.


    "Shoot!"


    At Li Junxian''s command, a huge pruning rushed into the sky with a whistling sound. But I''m sorry I missed.


    "Correct the position! The second shot!" Li Junxian was unmoved and ordered again.


    Then the second and third giant arrows went up into the sky.


    A huge arrow came through the air. One of them hit the basket directly, tore the basket half, startled the exhausted big black sheep and shouted more bitterly.


    Finally, the fifth giant arrow rubbed the hot-air balloon and tore the hot-air balloon into a huge hole. Suddenly, the hot-air balloon suddenly burst, a large amount of cold wind poured in, and the hot-air balloon fell rapidly.


    When the hot-air balloon landed in the sight of the ministers, the huge hanging basket, the air bag of two rooms, and the bright and dark stove all told them that this was a large Kongming lamp, but this Kongming lamp was much larger and much more than what they used to see.


    "It''s really Kong Mingdeng!"


    Li Shimin''s expression was a little tangled. He was pleased with the result and regretted it.


    The emperor is a strange creature. He dominates everyone''s fate, but he is never satisfied. He wants to make achievements, be immortal, be subject to all over the world, and have 3000 harem beauties. After all the pleasures have been tried, he still thinks of more beautiful things and immortality.


    The huge hot-air balloon was hung by many soldiers with hooks and sickles and slowly dragged to Li Shimin''s side.


    At the same time, Li Shimin was escorted in front of today''s culprits, Merton and Qin Huaiyu.


    "Bang!"


    The huge hanging basket fell to the ground, the furnace gradually lost its fire power, the huge air bag lost its heat supply, and a large amount of air leakage collapsed to the ground. Occupied a large area of open space.


    "Pa!"


    The bottom of the basket was shot by an eight bull crossbow. It was already in tattered condition. At the moment, it finally fell apart. A big black sheep came out trembling and screaming from time to time.


    The ministers looked left and right. In the final determination, this is indeed an ordinary black sheep!


    "Tell your majesty that the end general has taken all the four culprits!" Qin Qiong hugged her fist.


    Qin Qiong was less than a quarter of an hour from departure to return. It was not that he was efficient, but that as soon as Qin Qiong left the Imperial City, he found four people in a hurry at the foot of the imperial city.


    At the moment, a large number of soldiers directly captured, tied up and escorted to the imperial city. Merton never thought that he realized his dream of entering the Imperial Palace in this way.


    All the ministers focused on the four, to be exact, Merton.


    Qin Huaiyu, the three skinny children, had already met, and the Merton in front of them made them curious.


    I didn''t expect that mojiazi, who stirred up the situation in Chang''an City recently, should be such a beautiful young man.


    "I said, it really has nothing to do with me! Do you believe it?" Merton laughed.

 Chapter 86

    "It has nothing to do with you?"


    Under the powerful bureaucracy, the hot-air balloon house made by Qin Huaiyu was soon found and turned upside down.


    When pound put the materials for making hot-air balloons, big black sheep, accomplice Lu Ding, and the two remaining bags of walnuts in front of Merton, Merton immediately knew that he was unable to argue this time.


    But what do you mean by bringing up a few bags of walnuts? Have walnuts become evidence? Merton looked bitterly at Li Junxian who went to search the manor.


    "This guy is not authentic!"


    "You four talk about ghosts and gods in Chang''an City, causing a commotion in Chang''an city. What should you do?" Li Shimin looked at the anger on their faces.


    Up to now, half of the people in Chang''an city still believe that the heaven is the reincarnation of sheep immortals, and are burning incense and kneeling down in the street. It is estimated that the mutton business in Chang''an city will soon plummet, and it is impossible to return to normal without half a year.


    It was quickly found out that the idea of the large kongmingdeng in front of us was put forward by Morton. Qin Huaiyu and Lu Ding, the accomplice, were also found by Morton. Now no one can run away.


    "Your Majesty, don''t be angry. We don''t make this Kongming lamp according to ghosts and gods, but to be loyal to our country!" Merton shouted.


    "How come you have caused such a great disaster? You are not only innocent, but also meritorious." Li Shimin smiled angrily.


    The four quickly nodded fiercely,


    "Your Majesty, look, this large Kongming lamp is called hot air balloon. It is improved from Mr. Zhuge''s Kongming lamp." Merton quickly argued to himself and took off his hat from the theory of ghosts and gods.


    "If you dare to talk nonsense, you will be punished immediately." Li Shimin angrily scolded. Everyone knows the principle of Kongming lamp, although the Kongming lamp in front of you is too big, it is also appropriate to call it a hot-air balloon.


    Merton hurriedly said, "seeing that Kongming lamp can drive the paper to fly high into the sky, Wei Chen thought that if Kongming lamp can expand, its buoyancy will be greater. As long as Kongming lamp is large enough, it will drive people to fly into the sky."


    "Your Majesty, during the war between the two armies, some of our officers and men boarded the hot-air balloon, looked at the eight sides from a distance, and saw the enemy''s reality and reality. That''s a sure bet." Merton said in one breath.


    "Yes, yes, that''s what we think."


    Qin Huaiyu nodded in agreement and said, "it''s Morton''s organic wisdom! If they confessed that they made hot-air balloons to show off in front of the dandies in Chang''an City, the four of them must come in vertically and go out horizontally today.


    "Hiss!"


    When Merton said this, the military was not calm at once. The military situation changed rapidly on the battlefield. If we really had such a pair of eyes to see the changes of the enemy clearly, and our army took corresponding measures in the shortest time, it would be in an invincible position!


    Even Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde''s eyes on his children have changed a lot. Originally, he thought his children were fooling around. Where did he think there were such twists and turns.


    Li Shimin has also been in battle for a long time. After a little thinking, he understood the effect of hot-air balloon. However, no one has tried this hot-air balloon. Maybe these boys made it up in order to escape punishment.


    "Joke, hot-air balloons fly so high, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and people are noisy. How can you hear the shouting of the soldiers above." Li Shimin found out a problem.


    "Report back to your majesty! The boy thinks you can use flag language instead of shouting." Merton said.


    Flag language has long appeared in China. In addition to simple color instructions, it has developed into rich flag language through various patterns and gestures. Flag language is commonly used in marching and fighting. Li Shimin is no stranger. Even military generals can''t help nodding. This is really a good method.


    "What if you still fly like this?" Li Shimin looked at Merton with a smile, and the ministers couldn''t help laughing.


    Merton said awkwardly: "the boy thinks it can be fixed with a stronger cable, and there are soldiers on it to control the stove, choose the time to turn off the stove and land."


    "Oh! Since the hot-air balloon has such a function, why did you send one person to board the hot-air balloon control and send a sheep to cause a commotion in the city!" Li Shimin asked the question everyone wanted to ask.


    "Er! The boy is afraid of heights." Merton thought and tried to make up a reason. If he said that Qin Huaiyu was afraid and didn''t dare to go on the spot, he would be friends immediately.


    "Yes, we are also afraid of heights!"


    Qin Huaiyu nodded quickly and echoed his voice. Being afraid of heights is better than being afraid of death.


    Li Shimin sneered and didn''t expose the lies of the four people. As for Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde''s face has long been black. These smelly boys are really ashamed of them.


    "You really don''t want to go to heaven for the sake of gods and ghosts." Li Shimin suddenly asked with flashing eyes.


    All the ministers present were human spirits, and suddenly the whole audience was silent.


    All eyes were fixed on the four Mertons. If some boys dared to publicize the theory of immortals, ghosts and gods in front of his majesty, they would certainly not be spared.


    Cheng Yaojin is careless, but he can''t help but look dignified. There are many examples of chaotic dynasties in pursuit of immortality.


    Even Qin Shihuang, the emperor of the ages, didn''t want to live forever. He sent 500 boys and girls overseas to look for Xianshan. Although Li Shimin was in the heyday of the millennium, he couldn''t help feeling excited about the theory of immortals when he saw such a good opportunity. God, that''s everyone''s dream.


    Merton used to be a firm atheist, but his faith has been shaken since he crossed, but he knows that there may be some mysterious junior high school in the world, but he can''t find it by hot-air balloon.


    Morton noticed the dignified eyes of the people and said with a bitter smile: "tell your majesty, the Mohist school really knows ghosts, and there have been legends of white jade capital in the sky, five cities on the 12th floor, and rumors of rising in the daytime. But the boy thinks it is impossible."


    Merton said, gritting his teeth in the cannibal eyes of the ministers.


    "The sky is white jade, and there are five cities on the 12th floor." Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly brightened. His eyes were sharp and said, "Mingming has a detailed description. How can it be false."


    Qin Qiong couldn''t help looking at Merton with worry. If Merton didn''t answer well, it would offend either the courtiers or the emperor!


    "Because of oxygen!" Merton replied, gritting his teeth.


    "Oxygen?" Li Shimin and all officials stared at Merton.


    "Your Majesty, the Mohists believe that there must be oxygen in the air, and the higher the oxygen is from the ground, the thinner the oxygen is. The Mohist ancestors once walked on the Tubo plateau. When they first arrived there, they suddenly had a headache, shortness of breath, chest tightness, dizziness, fatigue, etc. the boy concluded that there must be too little oxygen because the ground is too high. If there is a white jade Beijing in the sky, it must be It''s even higher than the highest mountain at this time. There''s no oxygen there. Ordinary people can''t live at all. "


    "Oxygen?" the ministers breathed a sigh of relief. They didn''t expect Merton to give this explanation alone.


    Although this theory is unheard of, people can''t help being convinced, because no one can live without the air. Even if there is a white jade capital, your emperor is also a mortal body, and it is impossible to exist without the air.


    "Tell your majesty, I think what Mo xianbo said is very true. Even if there is a place for immortals in the world, it is not a place where we can survive." Wei Zheng said.


    Li Shimin was immediately disappointed.


    Although not willing, but also helpless, think about it, as long as you still rely on air to survive, you will extinguish the rumors of pursuing immortals!

 Chapter 87

    Suddenly, what did Li Shimin think of? Suddenly looked up at Merton and said word by word: "do you mean that in the Tibetan Plateau, chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness and fatigue are due to lack of oxygen?"


    "Of course, it''s hypoxia. The Mohist ancestors called it altitude reaction because we ordinary people have been living in the plain and suddenly reached the plateau. The terrain here is too high and the air is thin. Moreover, once the human body is hypoxic, the most direct manifestation is the purple lips and fingertips. Isn''t this the symptom of people''s hypoxia?" Merton said suspiciously.


    "Really?" the courtiers stared. How do they know what hypoxia is.


    "Tell your majesty! My minister used to be in charge of the Ministry of punishment cases. It has been recorded many times that the victims in suffocation cases were purple on their lips and fingertips. If according to Mo xianbo, this is indeed a phenomenon of lack of oxygen." Li daozong listed and said that he was once the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment and was very sensitive to such cases.


    "That''s right! According to the reaction of the officers and men, it is true that many officers and men have this phenomenon in many battles between Tubo and tuhun valley." Li Jing also confirmed.


    "Good, good! I didn''t expect to crack the biggest secret of Tubo today." Li Shimin laughed happily, and the previous depression was cleared away.


    He is still in his prime of life and bent on making achievements. For him, the ethereal theory of ghosts and gods is far less important than opening up and expanding land.


    Relying on the terrain, tuhun Valley and Tubo repeatedly invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty also repeatedly fought back. However, every time they pursued the plateau, the soldiers would have chest tightness, shortness of breath and weak limbs, and their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced. Tubo soldiers often said they would take the opportunity to defeat them.


    Now, although Datang has strong troops, it can only hold the defensive position in the face of Tubo and tuhun Valley, which further encourages the arrogance of both sides. It also advocates that it is blessed by gods and is more confident and fearless.


    "How did the Mohist ancestors overcome the altitude sickness?" Li Shimin asked eagerly.


    "According to the records of the Mohist ancestors, they followed ten people, six of whom had serious altitude reaction and nearly died. The symptoms of the three were mild. After three months, they gradually adapted to the local people, and one of them was always healthy. The Mohist ancestors believed that this should be related to people''s physique!" Merton said.


    "Related to constitution?"


    Several military leaders immediately thought that one of the ten people was ok, and the other three could adapt slowly. Compared with Tubo muddy Valley, the biggest advantage of Datang is that there are many people. In this way, over time, we will be able to train a team that can fight on the plateau. When Tubo and tuhun Valley did not have the advantage of plateau reaction, the odds of victory increased greatly in the face of fully armed Datang soldiers. As a result, the offensive and defensive trend of both sides changed quietly.


    "However, according to the Mohist records, there is a medicinal material called Rhodiola, which is very effective in treating altitude reaction!" Merton gave them a big surprise!


    "Rhodiola?" Li Shimin was greatly surprised and asked an official nearby, "imperial medical order, can you have this kind of medicine!"


    After thinking about it, the grey haired imperial doctor suddenly said, "Your Majesty, there is indeed this kind of medicine. This kind of medicine is a good medicine for tonifying qi. Only a little comes from Tubo every year."


    "Very few!" Li Shimin and the military were immediately disappointed. It seems that Tubo also knew the effect of this medicine and consciously controlled the sales. Few medicinal materials are not enough to support the consumption of the army.


    "Your Majesty, don''t worry. This kind of medicinal material is also distributed in the mountains of Qilian Mountain for generations, and in the adjacent areas of Nanzhao generation and Tubo, this kind of Rhodiola is also widely distributed. Although it is not as effective as Tubo, it also has curative effect." Merton quickly revealed what he knew and tried to commit crimes and meritorious deeds.


    Looking at Merton''s dog leg, Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing, but he couldn''t let him go so easily. These leather children caused more and more trouble. Last time they cheated in engraving and printing, but this time they made a large Kongming lamp, which caused a commotion in half of Chang''an city.


    Li Shimin pondered for a while and shouted, "Merton''s four people are stubborn and don''t want to make progress. If they don''t strictly discipline, how can they serve the country in the future, detain the four people and hit the ten boards again."


    "Ten big boards?" Merton was dumbfounded. He didn''t expect that he would suffer from the board after working hard for so long. How can he balance his merits and demerits!


    But Merton now knew wisely that he could not reason with the emperor, and the one who accepted his life was taken down.


    "Congratulations to the emperor. You have got this sharp weapon, solved the biggest secret of Tubo, and added two more magic weapons to win the Tang Dynasty." the ministers immediately congratulated.


    Li Shimin smiled complacently. Although the four Merton tossed and tossed again and again, they brought him surprises every time. This time, Li Shimin saw an opportunity to solve his old enemies Tubo and tuhun valley.


    Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde also smiled and didn''t feel how shameful it was for their children to play the board. Apart from the prince, whose children can be disciplined by the emperor in person. Didn''t you listen to the emperor? After discipline, can you serve the country in the future?


    Many ministers looked at the three people with envy. Their children were still walking birds and fighting. Qin Huaiyu and the three people even tossed printing and hot-air balloons, which are important for the country and the people, not to mention the Mexican family who is famous in Chang''an.


    This guy is more like a pervert. In terms of his ability, he has turned Mojia village from a poor and backward village into a rich village admired by everyone, and the fate of 5000 people has changed; On learning, it is art that oppresses the whole Imperial College, and the poems spread to Chang''an.


    In terms of status, it is said that once the ink technology exhibition opens, no one can underestimate the Mohist school. The prominent learning in the Pre-Qin Dynasty may really embark on brilliance again.


    "Hey! Other people''s children!"


    Li Shimin and all the ministers listened to the screams in the distance, but they didn''t laugh at it at all. Instead, they felt that their children were not being beaten


    Li Shimin turned his eyes and looked down at the two sacks of walnuts under his feet. He couldn''t help but brighten his eyes.


    "Cough! Pound, send these two bags of walnuts to the harem. Recently, the princes have worked hard to make up for them?" Li Shimin said unintentionally.


    The ministers suddenly remembered the recent rumors about walnuts in Chang''an city. Originally, they laughed off the rumors about eating walnuts to replenish the brain. However, looking at the two full bags of walnuts and the huge hot-air balloon in front of them, they couldn''t calm down. Was it really amazing that mojiazi made walnuts.


    Whether the emperor or a minister, he may be ruthless to others, but his children are always the softest weakness in the bottom of his heart.


    Fang Xuanling thought about his second son, brazenly stood up and said, "Fang Yiai, the second son of Weichen, is also stupid. Please give some walnuts to Weichen."


    "Weichen''s children..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the end, Li Shimin only saved a bag of walnuts, and the rest were robbed by the ministers.

 Chapter 88

    A strong bodyguard raised the board high, and the broad board with the wind was about to slap Merton''s ass heavily. Merton''s appointed closed his eyes.


    According to this posture, this board will surely lose half of its awesome life. Merton secretly prayed that he hoped that he would help himself and save himself.


    "Pa!"


    The sound of the board and butt hitting was clear and audible.


    "Eh!"


    Merton was surprised to open his eyes. It didn''t hurt as much as he thought, but how could Qin Huaiyu cry so miserable? Merton looked around in doubt.


    "Fool! Don''t shout!" Qin Huaiyu winked.


    Merton suddenly screamed out loudly, as if he was late for the pain. Don''t exaggerate


    The bodyguard behind Merton smiled helplessly and did their business, but he should have eyes. It seems that the board held high has a very different effect on him. If he really annoys the emperor, he should hit him firmly and surely.


    When you meet someone who wants to look like you, you should pull back at the last moment. It seems to be a huge force. The skin is blue and swollen. In fact, it''s just some skin and flesh injuries. You can jump up and down again in two or three days.


    And three of the four were the sons of the Duke of the current Dynasty, and the other was a serious founder. The guards had already been hinted at, just pretending.


    "Ah! Ah! Ah!"


    The four people are like competing with each other. They cry more and more. They are absolutely possessed by the film emperor.


    But even if it looks like it''s still a board! In the end, the pain superimposed by various boards is still very intense. The four people have revealed their true feelings from the performance. This is a real scream of pain.


    The ten boards were finally finished, and the four people lay there directly, covering their hips and sucking cold air one by one.


    One by one, Qin Huaiyu only felt that they were unlucky. They could make a famous achievement in history. As a result, they were punished.


    Merton was speechless looking at a group of bad friends. He was really a disaster this time. If the three guys didn''t have to take him, he wouldn''t be involved.


    "Hiss!"


    Merton wanted to get up, but suddenly he felt a pain, screamed and climbed back again.


    The three of Qin Huaiyu were worried about how to go back. Suddenly, a carriage stopped in front of the four. The driver was a familiar face, a eunuch next to Li Chengqian.


    "Your Highness the prince ordered the old slave to send the four back." the eunuch of the East Palace said in a sharp voice.


    Merton and others were embarrassed. They didn''t expect that Chengqian Li knew that they were hit by the board and kindly sent them back. But I think it''s also true that Chengqian Li couldn''t get the news when a hot-air balloon flew across Chang''an city.


    "Thank you for me, your highness!" Morton arched his hand.


    The four struggled to climb into the carriage. I found that Li Chengqian also carefully prepared the fur quilt.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Spring returns to the earth, and the weather begins to warm up. Although it is still a little cold in the morning, the sun at noon can bring enough heat to people, which is warm on people.


    Merton lay down under a big willow in the backyard of Mo mansion and greedily absorbed some heat like a dead dog. The branches of the willow have begun to turn green. I believe it will sprout soon. At that time, the weeping willow Yiyi will be a good scenery.


    The cool wound medicine was applied to the affected area, and the whole ass was immediately much more comfortable. It has to be said that Hua Lao''s secret recipe was really unique. The pain was greatly reduced. In less than two days, Merton''s wound had subsided, and only some blood was left, which could only subside slowly.


    "Old Hua said that there was only skin trauma left, and it would be all right in two days!" Ziyi put the wound medicine away and sat next to Merton. Ziyi looked at Merton lying around and was inexplicably happy. Since Merton came to Chang''an, they spent more time studying in the Imperial College, and they were no longer so comfortable in the Mojia village.


    And Ziyi is nominally Merton''s maid, but neither Fubo nor the elders of Mojia village raise her as a daughter. No matter whether she goes to the champion building or the fresh fish shop, Ziyi is not willing to let her do any work. Ziyi is very boring all day.


    Moreover, Merton from later generations did a lot of things himself and rarely needed the help of Ziyi. Now Merton is in bed to heal his wounds, and Ziyi finally feels that he has a place to play.


    "Two days?" Morton frowned and said, "no, he said it would take five days to get well. Please take five days off from the Imperial College!"


    It''s not easy to have the opportunity to go to the Imperial College. How can we not maximize our interests.


    "Ha ha, brother Mo is really a hero. He thinks alike. He and others have just asked for five days off from the Imperial College." Qin Huaiyu shouted from a distance with a voice changing period.


    "If it weren''t for the old stubborn Guozijian who said that more people would be examined, I would certainly be able to ask for ten days off." Chumo said sadly.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded regretfully. This guy had the worst study and was not interested in going to the Imperial College.


    Merton was speechless for a while. He really admired the abnormal physique of the three people. He was still pretending to be a dead dog here, and the three people had begun to swing around.


    "Purple clothes, make a pot of tea for the three boys and girls and move some brocade stools!" Merton said.


    "Don''t bother sister Ziyi, just stand for your brother!" the three laughed. Their buttocks haven''t healed, so they can''t sit at all.


    "Hum!"


    Purple white one eye Qin Huaiyu three people, reluctantly go to make tea.


    In her impression, these three guys are the young master''s friends.


    How wonderful it was before the young master came to meet them. He led the Mojia village to sell live fish and get rich. He was a model boy.


    But it''s good to meet them. First, they were punished by the Imperial College, and now they caused such a big disaster as hot-air balloon. They were directly beaten. Isn''t this a standard friend?


    As everyone knows, these three guys are also full of grievances. He originally wanted to be lazy and don''t write his homework. As a result, he was sued by Kong Yingda and wanted to show off in front of a kind of dandy. As a result, he made a sensation all over the city.


    "Merton, you said why we were so unlucky. It was obviously our credit. As a result, we didn''t get any benefits. We were punished and made wedding clothes for others." Qin Huaiyu sighed.


    "Isn''t it? Mo San doesn''t want to talk about it. He''s all his own people, and even if he benefits him, but the old man Lu Ding has been named a great general by his majesty. Now he''s pulling the full name of the hot-air balloon to refute the rumor!" Chumo said.


    The hot-air balloon flew across Chang''an City, which made Chang''an City shout that Yang Xian was alive, and floated the hot-air balloon around Chang''an city again to suppress this unhealthy trend.


    "You still say? If you hadn''t taken me, how could I have been involved." Merton thought about it. He was indignant. He didn''t expect that these people were so unreliable that all their efforts were destroyed on one rope.


    The three immediately flattered.


    "Merton, do you have any ideas without danger!" Qin Huaiyu said without giving up temptation.


    "No." Merton shook his head firmly and denied it. If he did it again, it would not be his ass next time.


    "Forget it!"


    Qin Huaiyu said regretfully. At the same time, he was also a little worried about Merton''s idea. Merton''s idea was good, but he could always make great things accidentally.

 Chapter 89

    "Touch!"


    Ziyi put the teapot heavily on the stone stool under the willow tree and turned away angrily.


    "Well, it''s still my buddy!" Qin Huaiyu didn''t take himself as an outsider at all. He picked up the teapot and poured himself a few cups to quench his thirst.


    The two of them are also fine. After asking for a leave from the Imperial College, they saw Merton and exchanged greetings. They are about to leave. "Gentlemen, it''s better to have a simple meal," invited fuber.


    "Next time!" Qin Huaiyu laughed.


    Since the opening of Zhuangyuan restaurant, uncle Yu has made his home in the restaurant. The quality of the food in Mo mansion has declined sharply, and it is possible to eat the dark food in purple. Qin Huaiyu and the three people really don''t have the courage to taste it. Before they leave, they told Merton to come. Three days later, there was a top dandy party in changlefang, and told Merton to come.


    Merton thought about it and nodded because he had to deal with these dandies in Chang''an city.


    "Young master, it''s time for you to drink soup. This is the blood tonic soup specially ordered by old Hua?" Ziyi looked forward to Merton with a large bowl of self-made perfect tonic soup.


    Merton smiled bitterly. The three of them ran away, but they couldn''t run. Looking at the thick grease floating in the bowl, the appointed closed his eyes and drank it.


    Three days later.


    Merton fled out of the ink house in purple''s reluctant eyes. He felt that under the care of purple, he had gained at least two kilograms these days and would become a pig if he didn''t go out again.


    After three days of recuperation, the young man''s physique was energetic, coupled with the excessive tonic in purple, Merton soon recovered.


    "Go to changlefang!"


    Merton took tie an to the carriage arranged by Qin Huaiyu.


    The carriage sped all the way through the busy Chang''an City street. After five days of calm, the chaos brought by the hot-air balloon has long subsided, and the busy Chang''an people are still running around life.


    The only impact is that the mutton business is greatly reduced. Just now, Merton passed by sun YangZheng store, the largest restaurant in Chang''an City, and found that the front door of the store was koruoque. The business was poor, not to mention some small stores.


    "Young master, I don''t know. Since the rumor of Yang Xian''s appearance, the business of sun YangZheng''s shop has plummeted. The business of Yu Zhuangyuan building is on fire. It is overcrowded every day. It is already the hottest restaurant in Chang''an city. Uncle Yu has taken advantage of the situation to open another branch." tie an said with a low smile.


    Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect such an unintentional move to help the fish champion building open business.


    Before, the largest meat market in Chang''an city was mutton. Now, the price of mutton has fallen sharply.


    Not only the fish champion building was on fire, but also the price of chickens, ducks and geese began to rise, driving the sales of chickens, ducks and geese in Mojia village to soar.


    "I said it was really an accident, do you believe it?" Merton said to Tie''an with a bitter smile. Merton was also helpless. It was really unintentional at the beginning, but the benefits were occupied by Mohist village. This pot Mohist village is not unjust!


    "I believe what the young master said!" tie an said with a suppressed smile.


    You just don''t believe it, okay? Merton looked contemptuously at iron ANN, who was boastful in acting.


    The carriage stopped.


    "Brother Mo?"


    As soon as Merton got out of the carriage, he saw Chumo waving.


    "Qin Huaiyu, where''s weichi Baolin?" Merton asked.


    "They''ve already gone in! I''m afraid you can''t find a place, so I''ll stay and wait for you!" Chumo said.


    "Education Department workshop?"


    Merton found that the beautiful building in front of him was the famous Jiaosi square. Isn''t it the Green ~ building


    "Chumo, isn''t it inappropriate for us to go to such a place!" although Merton has long been famous for it, he is deeply influenced by this kind of future generations and has a deep rejection of this kind of place.


    Chumo looked at Merton with a smile and said, "you''re wrong. What kind of place do you think is red powder and rouge? If it''s that kind of place, we estimate that no one will exist until the next day."


    With Chumo''s explanation, Merton suddenly realized that this is the kind of place where you don''t sell yourself.


    "I see!" Merton''s resistance subsided.


    After entering the Department of education workshop, Merton found that it was completely different from those places in the film and television drama, which was somewhat similar to the performance nature.


    There are boxes all around. On a stage in the middle, there are several palace beauties playing beautiful tunes, which is a little similar to the light music of later generations.


    "Tianzi one, that''s it."


    Chumo stops at the door of the private room on Tianzi No. 1


    The sound insulation effect of the private room is very poor. Standing at the door, you can hear Qin Huaiyu''s great achievements.


    "Do you know printing? It''s a powerful tool for educating the people. It''s said that the sheep fairy in Chang''an city did not know! I did it all! What a pity! If I had been bolder, I would have been the first to go to heaven!"


    Morton and Chumo push the door in. Qin Huaiyu is still complacent and shows off his great achievements.


    Seeing Merton pushing the door in, he immediately got up and said, "of course, all this is inseparable from my good friend Merton. Now let''s officially introduce it to you. This is the Mohist Merton who took charge of the school in the year of weak crown, and the ink technology exhibition caused a sensation in Chang''an!"


    The other teenagers present couldn''t help showing their eyes. Looking at the beautiful young man in front of them, they didn''t think that he was the famous mojiazi in Chang''an City recently.


    For them, the name Merton represents a dark day. Since Merton crushed the Imperial College and the poetry was passed to Chang''an, Merton is the child of others'' family in their father''s mouth to set off their ignorance.


    "Merton, Mojia village, I''ve seen you!" Merton smiled bitterly and bowed. Qin Huaiyu really made him famous this time.


    "This is Li Zhen, the eldest son of England!"


    Qin Huaiyu pointed to a slender young man with a brave face.


    "This is Liu Renshi, the eldest son of the Duke of Kui."


    "This is the second son of Fang Xiang''s family, Fang Jun, Fang Yiai!"


    "I know that!" Morton said, gnashing his teeth. In his memory, Fang Yiai was the culprit of his crossing.


    Fang Yiai is a civil servant, but he prefers martial arts. He is simply a traitor to the children of civil servants. After making friends with military generals, he has become Merton''s friends.


    After Merton received his salary, he and Fang Yiai led a group of friends to get drunk. Only then did Merton get through today.


    "Don''t be surprised, brother Mo, after getting drunk that time, he was sent to his hometown by my father. He didn''t come back until yesterday, but I don''t know that brother Mo stirred up such a big situation in Chang''an City in a few months!" Fang Yiai is tall, but he has a heartless character.


    "Whatever you say, you can''t run away with the meal you owe!" Merton said angrily and hugged him fiercely, which separated him.


    After several generals, Merton saluted one by one and took their seats.


    Merton looked around and found that this was indeed a gathering of dandies, except for those of different ages. Almost the second generation of military attach ¨¦ s came.

 Chapter 90

    Where there is Qin Huaiyu, there will never be a cold show. Under the introduction of Qin Huaiyu, Merton met the disciples one by one. After a few simple greetings, he soon became familiar with them.


    Groups of maids carrying colorful plates shuttle around the table like graceful butterflies, putting all kinds of dried fruits, exquisite food and wine one by one. To Merton''s surprise, there are many exquisite preserved fruits. In this era with extremely limited means to preserve food, it is indeed a luxury enjoyment.


    "Ladies and gentlemen! Please enjoy yourself!"


    In charge of room Tianzi 1 is a woman named Liu Niang. She is about 25 years old. She has light makeup and elegant manners. She is not like those seductive mortal women in later films and television. On the contrary, she gives people a sense of knowledge and reason.


    "Liu Niang, I invited the famous Mohist today. Isn''t Gongsun the most fond of Mohist frontier fortress poetry? Can I have the honor to invite Gongsun to talk to Liu Niang today!" Qin Huaiyu said to Liu Niang.


    A group of vigorous teenagers gathered together for nothing more than bragging and beauty. Now Qin Huaiyu has shown off in front of the dandies, and the rest is nothing more than the pursuit of beauty.


    Merton glared at Qin Huaiyu with hatred. He didn''t expect that this guy should pick up girls under his banner.


    "Yes, please come up, Miss Gongsun!"


    Chumo and others are also full of light and ready to move. Obviously, this Gongsun girl is very famous and it is difficult to invite her.


    Merton couldn''t help but wonder how charming the Gongsun girl was, and how many dandies were so obsessed with her.


    Fang Jun explained obscene on his face: "brother Mo, you don''t understand! If you only talk about her appearance, Gongsun may not be the most outstanding in the Jiaosi workshop, but in terms of fame, she will be Gongsun, who is excellent in both sword and dance. Her figure and dance posture will ensure that you''ve seen a worthwhile trip."


    Liu Niang said with a embarrassed face, "young masters, don''t blame me. Miss Gongsun will have a sword dance performance later. It''s inconvenient to disturb now, but when Miss Gongsun''s performance is over, the little girl will convey it."


    "Oh! I didn''t expect Gongsun to have a sword dance performance. It''s really a worthwhile trip!" Fang Jun shook his head and wrote.


    Merton looked at these walking hormones with disdain. Didn''t he expect?


    Hum!


    I think it''s for watching Gongsun''s sword dance!


    "Dong Dong Dong!" a burst of passionate drums sounded.


    As soon as the dandies were inspired, they looked at the center of the stage. The box of Tianzi No. 1 was in a good position. When the window was opened, they could see the panoramic view of the stage.


    After several opening dances, the atmosphere gradually warmed up.


    "Gongsun girl!"


    "Sword dance is unique!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd roared, and Fang Jun''s voice was the highest. The guy was almost lying in front of the window.


    Dong! "


    When the Gong rang, everyone immediately calmed down and looked forward to the stage. Suddenly, a deep female voice sounded.


    "Far up the Yellow River, between the white clouds, there is a lonely city and ten thousand Ren mountains......"


    The frontier fortress poem was originally passionate and generous, and it was most appropriate for generous people in Yan and Zhao to read it. However, the girl was sonorous and powerful, and her words were like jade beads falling on the plate. It was very pleasant, which gave a unique interpretation of this frontier fortress poem.


    "Good!"


    The crowd cheered.


    With the cheers of the crowd, a red Ling fell from the sky. When it was about to fall on the stage, a woman in red rose again.


    A beautiful woman shuttles through the air like a dragon, with a sword in her hand. Sword rainbow after sword reflects the extraordinary beauty of Hongling.


    With the passionate frontier fortress poetry, the sword dance turns faster and faster. From the mid air to the stage, there are cold stars everywhere. With the beautiful dance, people can''t help but palpitating in their hearts.


    "... but make the flying General of Longcheng stay here and don''t teach Hu Ma to spend Yinshan!"


    With the last poem, the whole sword dance reached the most magnificent moment. A cold light flashed, and the Red Diamonds on the stage were broken. A slender and delicate body fell slowly with the Red Diamonds and lay prone on the stage, just like a beauty on a battle and bleeding battlefield.


    "Good!"


    The crowd cheered!


    Merton is also full of praise. This Gongsun girl is really excellent in sword dance. Even though Merton comes from later generations and is used to all kinds of gorgeous performances, she is still shocked in her heart.


    "I''d like to contribute thousands of yuan! But I ask Gongsun to dance alone for me!" a fat middle-aged man shouted.


    "This guy is the owner of the Wei family in the south of the city. He is the most lecherous!" Fang Jun looked at the owner of the Wei family with contempt and whispered to Merton.


    On the stage, the beautiful lady got up slowly, and her slender figure was undoubtedly revealed. She replied in a crisp voice: "thank you for your kindness. The little woman has just finished dancing. She is really unwell and can''t dance again. Please make atonement!"


    Gongsun made a bow and was about to step down. Obviously, everyone also knew Gongsun''s rules. They regretted that they could get Gongsun''s favor. That was the most face-saving thing in Chang''an city. It''s a pity that Miss Gongsun never sees guests. Every time the sword dance is over, she will leave.


    Just as Gongsun was about to leave, Liu Niang came up to her and whispered a few words in her ear. Gongsun''s eyes were colorful, and she changed her direction and turned to box Tianzi No. 1.


    "What''s going on?"


    Everyone was in an uproar. They didn''t expect that Gongsun, who had never seen a guest, made an exception.


    When they saw that the room Gongsun entered was Tianzi No. 1 private room, they couldn''t help sighing. Those who can get to Tianzi No. 1 must be rich or expensive. I didn''t expect that Gongsun, who has always been independent and free from mud, would succumb to powerful people.


    The head of the Wei family was angry. He didn''t expect to be beaten in the face in public. Miss Gongsun just rejected herself. In a twinkling of an eye, he made an exception and accepted someone else''s request.


    "I''d like to see who can make me lose face like this!" the Lord of the Wei family said angrily.


    Even if the other party packs the Tianzi No. 1, he won''t be afraid of anyone with his position as the Wei family.


    "Gongsun girl!"


    When Qin Huaiyu and others saw Gongsun enter the private room, they were all in a hurry and at a loss. After all, it''s young Aimu. No matter how boastful he usually is, he will be flustered in front of him.


    "Little girl, Gongsun Yue has seen you young masters! No, it''s master Mo!" Gongsun bowed.


    Everyone''s eyes brushed on Merton, and Merton couldn''t help standing up with a bitter smile.


    "Met Gongsun girl!" Merton replied.


    "Please forgive me for singing childe''s poems without childe''s permission." Gongsun Yue saw Merton''s enthusiasm, just like future fans see stars.


    "It''s nothing! It''s an honor for Gongsun to see these poems! Brother Mo, you say so!" Qin Huaiyu said first before Merton answered.


    "Yes, Merton and I are good friends! I''m in charge of this matter for him. Just use it!" Fang Jun was even more impolite.


    Merton looked helplessly at a group of bad friends. These guys are young and sell yetian. They don''t feel bad. They just take other things as good people to please the girl.


    Seeing that everyone was angry, Merton had to nod and say, "since Miss Gongsun likes it, Mo can officially authorize Miss Gongsun to use it!"


    "Thank you, childe!"


    Gongsun Yue''s eyes brightened. She didn''t expect to have an unexpected joy. There are many singing girls in Chang''an City who sing the three poems of the frontier fortress, but only they have been recognized by the Lord. Isn''t that a higher level of fame.


    Just then, there was a noise outside the box.


    "Young master! There are already people here." Liu Niang''s anxious voice came from outside the box.


    "Touch!"


    The box door was kicked open, and an arrogant voice came in.


    "I''d like to see who can invite Gongsun girl like a big face!"

 Chapter 91

    A young man in royal clothes stepped into the door. He was about fifteen or sixteen years old. His face was like a crown of jade, but he gave people a feeling of yin and softness.


    No one else entered the private room next to the young man. Behind him, there were several young men with weak crowns. Even in the face of the top two generations of Datang, they were also fearless. Obviously, they had a lot to come from.


    "Chang sun Chong!"


    When Qin Huaiyu saw the visitor, he immediately gnashed his teeth.


    Merton suddenly realized that the young man was the legitimate son of the current prime minister, sun Wuji. No wonder he was so arrogant. Presumably, the people behind him were also after Xun GUI.


    "What do you mean, Chang sun Chong? He even came to our box to make a scene!" Qin Huaiyu asked.


    "Qin Huaiyu, who is looking for you? We''re here to do justice for Gongsun. We know Gongsun''s rules. Everyone knows that we never see guests. Today I''m here. I''ll see who dares to force Gongsun!" a pale young man came forward and complained behind Chang sun, saying that Qin Huaiyu and others have become bullies who bully weak women.


    "Duhe! Don''t talk so hard. Who have you seen forcing Gongsun?" Chumo roared.


    They are the legitimate sons of various families, representing not only their own reputation, but also the reputation of their parents. Once it is spread that they bully women, it is estimated that their father will lose face.


    Duho! When Merton heard the name, he suddenly thought that this was Du Xiang''s son and the famous unlucky guy in the history books.


    Merton can see that these are the two small groups of the top dandies in the Tang Dynasty, one after civil servants and the other after military generals, except for Fang Jun, of course.


    "The eldest grandson misunderstood! The little girl was not forced by anyone, but the little girl used Mo xianbo''s poems without Mo xianbo''s permission and came up to apologize." Gong Sunyue explained,


    It seems to be unique, but facing two big dude groups is not enough. The two parties can not afford to offend.


    "Oh! Miss Gongsun''s Mo County Boke is three frontier fortress poems, which have spread all over Chang''an city!" Chang sun rushed to look at Qin Huaiyu and others, and finally his eyes fell on a living face.


    "Merton, Merton village, I''ve seen the eldest grandson!" Merton had no choice but to come forward and salute.


    "I didn''t expect that my talent would surpass the Imperial College. It is said in the poem that brother mo of Chang''an was in front of someone, disrespectful!" Chang sun Chong said with unusual enthusiasm.


    Du he and other dandies behind him also showed a surprised look. They have heard a lot about this Mohist who has stirred up the situation in Chang''an City recently.


    They are all officials. Of course, they know how important Qu Yuan plow and artificial incubation technology, as well as the secret skills of live fish are to the Tang Dynasty. They also know that Merton is the emperor''s most popular man.


    Chang sun Chong also had a floating mind. What he knew was much more secret than other dandies. Prince Li Chengqian had footprints and was inconvenient to walk, but he returned to normal overnight. It all depended on the tricks of the Mozi in front of him.


    The Mohist hospital opposite the Imperial College is the place where the Mohists specially treat Li Chengqian''s foot diseases. Otherwise, how can such a large area of land fall into the hands of the long declining doctors? Even Chang sun Chong knows that Li Shimin once directly faced Kong Yingda on behalf of Morton''s parents.


    In private, sun Wuji once lamented that the future of Mohism is unlimited if he can win the favor of the current and future kings.


    "Elder brother sun, you really hurt Merton. You really deserve it!" Merton said modestly.


    "Well, since it''s a misunderstanding, you can go back from where you come from!" Qin Huaiyu said impatiently.


    He had a hard time inviting a beauty. Before he said a few words, he was disturbed by these guys. Of course, his heart was not smooth.


    "Oh, that''s not good. I have another important thing to do when I come up, that is to invite Miss Gongsun to my box. How can I leave before you are invited?" Du he stepped forward and said in a loud voice.


    "Du he! Is your kid itchy? Do you want me to beat you out!" Fang Jun roared.


    Although their parents were called Fang cunduduan and sincere cooperation, they didn''t know what was going on. Fang Jun and Du he were really famous for not dealing with each other.


    Seeing Fang Jun''s five big and three thick figure, Du he could not help shrinking his small body and cried humbly: "Fang Jun, you rammed goods, you are so rude in front of Gongsun girl. It''s really vulgar. A gentleman doesn''t move his mouth or hands. It''s better for us to fight today. Gongsun girl will go to whose box whoever wins.


    "Wendou, OK! Just rely on your three Liang ink? Brother Mo is here, are you sure you want to Wendou?" Fang junrao looked at Du he with interest and said jokingly.


    Qin Huaiyu and others also laughed. It should be said that these generals might hesitate to fight with the literati before, but after having Merton, they suddenly became more confident. After all, Merton''s reputation was based on the five wins and one defeat of Guozi Jiansheng.


    You civil servants may be a little better than us. Can you compare with the country''s son supervisor, who is the pride of the country.


    Unexpectedly, Du he said confidently, "I admit brother Mo''s strength is very strong, but today we are prepared to invite Miss Gongsun. Today we compare paintings, brother Yan, it''s up to you!"


    Du he said, and a young man in green came out behind them.


    "Yan Xingjian, it''s terrible." Qin Huaiyu exclaimed when he saw the visitor.


    "Who is this person?" Merton asked Fang Jun suspiciously.


    "The nephew of Yan Liben, the master of traditional Chinese painting in the current Dynasty, is the most famous painter of the younger generation." Fang Jun said with hatred.


    "Du he, you are insidious!" Qin Huaiyu roared.


    "Unexpectedly, you agree with the literary duel. Of course, it belongs to the literary duel together with Danqing!" Du he said proudly.


    Qin Huaiyu''s heart sank. He did know that Merton was brilliant, but he had never heard that Merton could draw! There''s no need to compare this. Just admit defeat.


    Yan Xingjian proudly walked up to Merton and said, "little brother Yan Xingjian has seen brother Mo, and I''ve heard about brother Mo for a long time. This is that I''ve just watched Gongsun girl''s sword dance. I''m very inspired. I''m in blue immediately. I specially ask brother Mo for advice!"


    Yan Xingjian came prepared. He picked up a painting axis in his hand and slowly opened it. Many of the ink was still wet. It was obviously a new painting.


    Merton immediately felt deep malice. It was obvious that Yan Xingjian took him as a stepping stone to fame.


    When the painting scroll was changed and opened, a palace dress woman who danced alone had a beautiful posture and waved her long sword obliquely, which made Miss Gongsun''s beautiful dance jump onto the paper.

 Chapter 92

    Next to it is a famous poem by Li Yannian of the Han Dynasty. There are beautiful women in the North who are left behind and independent. When you look at the city and the country, you''d rather not know the city and the country? Beauty is hard to get! "


    "Good!"


    "Good poetry, better painting!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Chang sun Chong and others immediately cheered, while Qin Huaiyu and others immediately looked pale and depressed.


    "Thank you, young master Yan!"


    Even Gongsun month is also colorful. I feel honored and thank you again and again.


    Yan Xingjian is proud. If he can beat the Mohists today, his reputation will be improved. As long as Su Lao, who has been famous for a long time, doesn''t show up, he has absolute confidence.


    "I don''t know how to dance Gongsun girl''s sword. Please give me some advice." Yan Xingjian pressed step by step.


    Merton just put down his tea cup and smelled a mouthful of tea gushing out: "poof! Who do you say is painting?"


    Everyone was shocked. They didn''t expect Merton to have such a reaction.


    "Gongsun girl!" Yan Xingjian said suspiciously.


    "Oh! Apart from the clothes, what point do you draw like Gongsun girl!" Merton said gently pointing to the painting axis, which stunned the people.


    "No!" Qin Huaiyu said, looking at Gongsun Yue on one side, and immediately burst into laughter.


    "More than not, it''s not a person!"


    Fang Juncheng Chumo and others also ridiculed. You said that the painting was Gongsun girl, but the painting was not like the Lord at all. How can you say that the painting was Gongsun girl.


    "I said the figure in the painting must be Liu Niang. She is just wearing Gongsun''s clothes." Fang Jun said with a smile.


    "You...?" Yan Xingjian suddenly became very angry. He wanted to say that it has been painted like this in ancient China for thousands of years, but he couldn''t refute a fact.


    You don''t look like me!


    Gongsun Yue is right in front of him, and the painting axis is right in front of him. Now even he feels that his painting is really a little different.


    ok Not a little, but really not.


    Since ancient times, danqingmiao hand painting has paid attention to artistic conception. Maybe masters like Yan Liben can coordinate artistic conception with characters, but at least Yan Xingjian can''t.


    "So? Brother Mo seems to be able to draw the charm of Gongsun girl!" asked Chang sun Chong, who seemed very interested, and immediately woke Yan Xingjian from his panic.


    Yes! If he doesn''t draw like himself, can he draw like Mozi? As long as he is better than Mozi, he will naturally win.


    "Then Yan is waiting for brother Mo''s masterpiece!" Yan Xingjian said in a bad tone.


    Qin Huaiyu and others immediately lost their temper and stared at Merton one by one, hoping that the magical Mohist son could create another miracle.


    Soon the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were presented. Everyone looked at Merton. Qin Huaiyu and others looked forward to it, while the eldest sun laughed at them. He didn''t believe that Merton could draw anything.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Mo doesn''t need these things at all, but needs some help from Gongsun girl."


    "Master Mo! Just tell me!" Gongsun Yue said.


    Merton whispered a few words in his ear. Gongsun Yue blushed, stared at Merton coyly and left.


    "High!"


    Fang Jun gave a thumbs up quietly. And Du he and Yan Xingjian on one side wanted to spit fire in their eyes.


    Soon Gongsun Yue came back, holding a beautiful box in his hand, gently put it on the table, reddened and said, "Mr. Mo, what you want!"


    Merton came forward with a slap and opened the box to reveal the colorful inside.


    "Rouge powder?" Yan Xingjian exclaimed.


    For a moment, everyone looked at Merton differently. They didn''t think that the painting tool Merton needed was Rouge powder.


    This time, even Qin Huaiyu and others were silly. Everyone thought that Merton was too unreliable this time. It was a great trick to paint with rouge and gouache.


    "Rouge powder?" Merton smiled. No, it should be an eyebrow pencil.


    Merton picked up a black slender object and carefully looked at the closest thing to graphite in this era... Luozidai.


    Merton has no ability to make graphite, so he can only replace it with this kind of thing. Luozidai came from Persia and is very expensive. It is deeply loved by Chang''an women. As the red man of Jiaosi workshop, Gongsun Yue obviously does not lack this kind of thing.


    Luo zidai was very soft. Merton carefully wrapped a layer of rice paper to avoid soiling his hands. Then the rice paper spread out neatly on the table,.


    After doing all this work, Merton smiled and said, "the next work is very boring. In order not to let everyone wait, I wonder if Gongsun can dance again."


    Gongsun Yue is also a shrewd person. It seems that the two sides are jealous of this matter, but after this battle, the biggest beneficiary must be herself. I believe that after today, her reputation must rise to another level. What''s another dance.


    Dong Dong,


    The drums again, Gongsun Yue danced again. Compared with the first excitement, Gongsun Yue chose a man dance that consumes less energy this time.


    Rao is so. The sword light of the whole church workshop flashes again,


    Merton kept shuttling back and forth on the rice paper with luozidai in the sword dance, leaving a dazzling black ink.


    Dong, with the sound of a drum at the end, Gong Sunyue flew away and ended the performance. The two sword dances, one just and one soft, were performed incisively and vividly by Gong Sunyue, each making the ultimate beauty.


    "Even if I lose today, I won''t regret seeing Gongsun''s dancing skills." Fang Jun said contentedly. Obviously, there was no confidence in Merton''s victory.


    At the same time, Merton also left Luozi Dai in his hand.


    "In a hurry, we can only do so." Merton said regretfully looking at his work.


    "Put on airs!" Yan Xingjian snorted coldly. He didn''t believe Merton could draw anything.


    He thought that the reason why he was still standing here was to ridicule him after defeating Mohist Zi.


    But when he looked at the paper, he was stunned.


    On the rice paper, countless black lines are intertwined to form a three-dimensional woman with hair, eyes and nose. Her clothes are floating like a dragon.


    More importantly, these women depicted with simple lines are nine points similar to Gongsun Yue.


    "This is me?" Gongsun Yue looked at the woman in the painting in shock and couldn''t help herself for a long time.


    "Lost, lost a school to wipe out the ground." Yan Xing stumbled, and now he tasted the bitter fruit of his own sin.


    Originally wanted to step on others to achieve their own reputation, but now they have become a stepping stone for others.

 Chapter 93

    Merton was dizzy and had a splitting headache, which was a typical hangover sequela.


    Vaguely, Merton felt dry mouth and uncomfortable all over, and then woke up.


    "Water?" Merton said hoarsely.


    Suddenly, a cup of warm water that had already been prepared was handed to Merton. After drinking three glasses of water in a row, Merton woke up from vagueness.


    He found himself sleeping in his room. His purple eyes were red. It was obvious that he was taking care of him all the time and didn''t close his eyes all night.


    "How long have I slept?" Merton said, patting his drowsy forehead.


    "Go back to the young master! It''s been a day and a night! Otherwise, old Hua said that the young master was fine! The maidservant must be worried to death!" Ziyi said with red eyes.


    Merton found that the sun had begun to slant westward, it was already in the afternoon, and he had unconsciously slept for a day.


    I have a headache and want to crack. Yesterday''s memory fragments have been restored one by one. It turns out that Merton''s common sketch in the world after yesterday overwhelmingly defeated Yan Xingjian, which immediately aroused the popularity of many dandies.


    The young man''s mind, even if he is a little jealous, he feels that he has done a lot of great things.


    The precious Sanle is like water, which is consumed in one gulp. Merton is the main target of attack. Even if the alcohol level in this era is not high, it can''t stand. It''s like drinking water. Soon Merton is drunk and hazy.


    After coming to this era, Merton has always been under great pressure. The survival and development of 5000 people in Mojia village are walking on thin ice step by step. Just last night, Merton finally put aside all the pressure and indulged.


    "Well, I didn''t do anything special!" Merton''s fragment was blurred! Asked Ziyi.


    "Bring back a girl''s snail Dai?" Ziyi blinked and said innocently. Merton found that the girl''s eyebrows had been painted by snail Dai, which was clearly secretly used.


    "Er!"


    Merton suddenly looked embarrassed and suddenly remembered the absurd things of last night.


    When he came to the Tang Dynasty, although he created a goose feather pen and solved the problem of writing, it was very inconvenient to dip the goose feather pen in ink once it was used.


    Seeing the Luozi Dai closest to graphite, she immediately felt happy and scraped all the Luozi Dai in the teaching department workshop. She was ready to ask Uncle Zhang to go back and study and make a pencil. Where did she think of the impact of doing so.


    "Wow! I didn''t expect brother Mo to have such a preference for women''s thrushes. I bought a batch of them in the west market today and sent them to brother mo." Fang Jun pushed the door and entered, with a sly smile on his face and a look of beating.


    Behind him, Li Chengqian followed. It was obvious that they had known each other for a long time. It''s not surprising that Fang Jun is the second son of Fang Xiang, and it''s reasonable to know Prince Li Chengqian.


    "Brother Mo''s hot-air balloon flew across Chang''an city that day. I was really sorry that brother Mo couldn''t see it. I didn''t expect that brother Mo detonated the whole city again in the past few days. It seems that brother Mo''s life is really wonderful! Compared with the life in the East Palace, it''s really boring." Li Chengqian shook his head and looked very sorry.


    "Thank you for your kindness that day, brother Li. But what does brother Li mean when he says that he detonates the whole city again? It''s just a first-class teenager who gets drunk. It''s nothing!" Merton wondered.


    He just woke up now and didn''t know what had happened again.


    "Brother Mo doesn''t know yet. Yesterday, brother Mo painted a painting that was amazing. Gongsun girl was like a living person, lifelike. Brother Mo also specially stamped his own seal and said that if he didn''t seal it, he was afraid that Gongsun girl in the painting would live." Fang Jun described yesterday with a nose and eyes.


    Merton was stunned. He boasted greatly. It was the trouble caused by drinking again.


    "Talk big, just talk big, not really!" Merton giggled.


    Fang Jun said with a smile, "someone can take it seriously! From today on, Miss Gongsun of the Jiaosi square will see no guests except for the performance. If you want to see Miss Gongsun, you can only see the paintings painted by brother mo."


    "That''s ok?" Morton said with a tongue tied. He spent a lot of money to see no real people. He can only see a portrait. There are still people doing business like this in the world.


    "Of course, Yan Liben, Lord Yan, spent a lot of money and directly wrapped it up for three days. As for the later appointment, it has been scheduled for next month. Everyone wants to see your painting skills of Merton. As for Gongsun month, the education department workshop provides her as a treasure, and even puts on the veil for the performance." Fang Jun said.


    The education department workshop really makes money, which is easier than lying down to collect money, and plays the essence of hunger marketing.


    "Even my father heard about this. When I came here this morning for my brother, I heard my father say that the Mexican family is naughty and mischievous all day. As your surrogate parent, he will discipline you well if he has the opportunity, so don''t thank me for my brother''s carriage. You still need it in the future. It''s not too late to thank me at that time." Li Chengqian said cunningly.


    It has to be said that Li Chengqian has changed a lot. It turns out that when Li Chengqian first came into contact with Merton, although he was polite, he was always serious. Since he returned to normal walking, his character has gradually become cheerful, and even all kinds of jokes come at random, which was unthinkable before.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun must have discovered the change of Li Chengqian, so they didn''t prohibit Merton from contacting Li Chengqian, and they liked Merton. After all, Li Shimin won''t become anyone''s surrogate parent casually.


    Merton suddenly wilted. He personally experienced the horror of Li Shimin. If he was allowed to discipline himself, the days after Merton would be dark.


    "Hey, hey, hey!" Fang Jun said with a heartless smile. Since he abandoned literature and started from martial arts, Fang Xiang has lost his confidence in this guy''s studies.


    These two guys came to visit Merton, and they wanted Merton''s paintings more.


    Merton, who just woke up and heard that he had fallen into the clutches of Li Shimin, was not in the mood to help them draw. He really couldn''t endure Fang Jun''s entanglement.


    Merton tilted his head, and a violent version of the two jumped out.


    With a big head, a thin neck and a few matchsticks, people can''t help but spit at the sight of them.


    "You''re playing with us. Let''s see how I deal with you." Fang Jun roared and rushed to Merton. Chengqian blocked Merton''s retreat


    Of course, they were not happy with Merton''s Jerry built work. The three teenagers made a mess happily.


    Finally, the outnumbered Merton finally signed the alliance under the city and will supply a portrait of the two when appropriate.


    As for the simplified version of the portrait in their hands, of course they are reluctant to throw it away, and the more they see it, the more they like it, which is regarded as the interest this time.

 Chapter 94

    The simple and easy to learn violence and the dialogue between the two teasers aroused the great interest of the idle and flustered purple clothes.


    "Young master!" Ziyi''s voice was so sweet!


    Merton suddenly got goose bumps all over and said, "if you have something to say, dare to be a demon and drive you out of the house."


    Purple clothes were not afraid of Merton''s powerless threat. She said in a charming voice: "young master, purple clothes also want to learn painting!"


    Ziyi finally told her purpose, twisted Merton''s arm and said coquettish.


    "Are you sure you have this talent?" Merton knew the purple girl''s temperament and didn''t like learning in his life.


    "Young master, I promise I can learn it well!" Ziyi said firmly, "just teach me!"


    Purple clothes kneaded Merton''s shoulder and beat his back, and made all the means of serving people that he had lost at ordinary times.


    "All right, all right! Just learn if you want!"


    Merton was so helpless that he had to agree to teach. The most important thing was that if he didn''t agree, his shoulders would be pinched and scattered by her.


    "Yeah! How nice of the young master?" Ziyi jumped up and shouted happily.


    Merton secretly planned that if Ziyi wanted to learn painting and didn''t have time to make those dark dishes, he would have a good reason to change into a cook again. He wouldn''t suffer any loss.


    As for whether Ziyi can learn well, it''s not in Merton''s consideration. It''s up to her to toss.


    Art is expensive.


    Even the tuition fees paid by later art students are much more expensive than ordinary students, not to mention the era of art desert. Although Ziyi has not heard of this sentence, it has once again confirmed this truth.


    Luo zidai, who had experienced the Silk Road and had been imported from Persia thousands of miles away, seemed to want no money and was wantonly squandered by purple clothes.


    It broke accidentally!


    This is not very obvious!


    This is too crisp again!


    Fang Jun spent a lot of money to buy Luozi Dai, which was soon wasted by the black sheep girl Ziyi.


    Fortunately, although art has high requirements for talent, it can be realized with a lot of practice, especially the simple and easy to learn.


    Finally, after luozidai was consumed by more than half, Ziyi finally started on the road of violent man.


    "Young master, what do you think of my painting?" Ziyi excitedly took the masterpiece and looked forward to Merton.


    "Er! Good!"


    Merton looked at the picture of chicken eating rice on the rice paper and praised that it could be painted like this, which showed that those luozidai didn''t sacrifice in vain. He simply explained the essence of violence to Ziyi and sent the high-interest Ziyi away.


    Fu Bo looked at the purple clothes who rushed out happily with a spoiled face. Then he came in with a one foot long strip box in his hand.


    "Young master! What you want! It has been delivered from the village!" fuber handed it to Merton.


    "Seriously?"


    Merton was overjoyed. He quickly took over and opened it. He saw that ten wooden sticks similar to chopsticks were neatly placed in the box. Each wooden stick was evenly cut into a hexagon, with a black round core in the middle.


    If there are future generations here, they will recognize this as the most common pencil in future generations.


    Merton picked up a pencil and found that the work of the pencil was extremely simple, even simple,. The surface of the bare wood was not even painted with clear paint, not to mention the common eraser in later generations. Merton had to be in a hurry. Lao Zhang sent it to me as soon as he finished in order to catch up with the work


    Even so, Merton was not satisfied. After coming to the Tang Dynasty, Merton solved the writing problem with a goose feather pen.


    However, the quill pen has one of the most serious defects, that is, it has to dip in ink every few words. Merton, who is used to waving freely in future generations, is not used to it. Now that he has a pencil, he finally doesn''t have to endure that pain.


    Merton picked up a knife and cut off the wood outside the pencil. The wood is the softest Tung wood. Merton cut the cork outside into a cone with three or two knives, exposing the lead core made by the special luozidai in the middle, cutting it into a sharp end, and finally completed one pencil.


    I wrote a few words on the rice paper, and the familiar feeling came back again. Although the lead Rui made by luozidai was not as black as the painting pen, it was enough for writing.


    "Tie''an! Take five pencils to Ziyi immediately and bring all luozidai back by the way!" Merton ordered.


    "Yes, young master!"


    Tiean Weng said, picked up five pencils from the box and went to find Ziyi.


    "Lao Zhang sent someone to say that the amount of luozidai is too small. It can only make ten pencils, and the price is expensive. He is actively studying the graphite mentioned by the young master. Now he has a preliminary look, but I''m afraid he will have to use luozidai to make pencils before that, which may delay the young master''s use," fuber said.


    "Let''s replace it with luozidai first! I think the raw materials for making pencils are enough now." Merton looked at tie an with a wry smile, holding a large bag of things in his hand.


    "Young master! You want Luozi Dai!" tie an opened the things in her hand on the table. A large bag of half and half Luozi Dai covered half of the table, and the purple clothes who got into trouble obviously didn''t dare to show up. I don''t know where to hide and secretly practice with a new pencil.


    Merton looked at the masterpiece in purple and said, "fortunately, Uncle Zhang made the pencil in time. If it''s a few days later, our ink house will close down!"


    "Young master is very kind to purple clothes!" Fubo said with emotion.


    I am reluctant to be called at ordinary times, and I am very free at ordinary times. Even the precious Luozi Dai is used arbitrarily. The young master of that family can do this to his own maid.


    Merton smiled at the speech. Ziyi was the first person she appeared in front of her when she came to the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the experience that Ziyi and his predecessor depended on each other. Of course, Merton''s impression of it was different.


    For the next few days, I lived a life of mixed eating and waiting to die every day. By the way, I taught my proud maid.


    The business of Mojia village has become formal. Quyuanli and chicken, duck and goose cubs in Mojia village occupy the whole market in Guanzhong and are spreading outward at an extremely terrible speed. There are an endless stream of orders for supply, so Merton doesn''t have to worry at all.


    After the last jiaoshifang incident, Qin Huaiyu and his three people never showed up. They heard that they were banned. After Merton was lucky to have a disaster for a while, they left these guys alone.


    Merton has the highest status in the Mo mansion. Since Merton showed his talent, Li Yi has let Merton go. Even when Merton got drunk this time, he left after seeing that he had nothing to do.


    Merton lived such a comfortable life that he even forgot that he had already been watched by a terrible demon king. When Pound''s smiling face appeared in Merton, Merton immediately remembered Li Chengqian''s reminder a few days ago.


    Li Er, the biggest surrogate parent in the world, will summon Merton.

 Chapter 95

    Compared with the embarrassment of entering the palace for the first time, Merton who entered the palace for the second time seemed much more normal. After all, he walked in.


    Through the rosefinch gate, Merton was received by the bodyguard inside and outside, and probed from head to foot by something similar to the later detector.


    Merton''s disdain is a magnet. If you carry it, I have some ways to get through it.


    Of course, Merton can only think about this idea in his mind. If he says it, the degree of search may be more severe.


    Merton put on his shoes and tidy up his clothes. These abnormal bodyguards won''t let go of any suspicious enemy.


    Pound looked at Merton''s embarrassment with a smile. This guy was absolutely intentional and didn''t remind himself before he came.


    "Well, this is the first time you enter the Imperial City," said pound.


    Merton reluctantly nodded. Even such a sophisticated detection system in future generations will be drilled. Moreover, relying on a magnet, manual detection has always been an essential step. You know, this is an era when imperial power is as powerful as heaven.


    Merton followed pound to walk in the imperial city. During this period, he also encountered several interrogations, but it was not as severe as the first time. Some bodyguards saw pound leading Merton and released him after a few interrogations.


    Soon Merton was led to a big hall.


    "Chongwen hall!"


    Merton looked at the three big characters in front of the hall and suddenly realized that this was the place where the prince went to school.


    "Grandpa Pang! I don''t know where your majesty is? Boy, I''m OK to go and see you!" Merton asked cautiously,


    "Mo xianbo will wait here first. After his majesty leaves the court, he will come to check the studies of the princes. At that time, Mo xianbo will naturally see his majesty." pound said.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Li Shimin was checking the prince''s studies. He picked up the grass, hugged the rabbit and took himself with him.


    I thought I was amorous. I thought Li Shimin specially summoned himself in his busy schedule!


    "Hoo!" Merton slowly breathed a sigh of relief and comforted himself: "he is not so important. Li Shimin will not specifically target himself. At most, he will take himself as a negative teaching material and give the princes a practical lesson."


    The more he comforted himself, the more confused he became. In particular, pound led Merton to the hall of Chongwen hall and hurried away, leaving only Merton and the guards of Chongwen hall staring at each other.


    "I don''t know your name, brother! Is Morton polite?"


    Merton flattered the bodyguard, but he didn''t get any response.


    Morton touched his nose awkwardly and said, "with the loyal character of big brother, the future will be unlimited!"


    Interesting! There is still silence.


    The whole scene was immediately embarrassed. Merton decadent gave up the idea of climbing the relationship and began to worry about his upcoming fate. It seems that he didn''t do anything special!


    I don''t know how long later, a whisper interrupted Merton''s thinking about life.


    "See? He''s the big devil." a little Zhengtai''s voice came from behind the stone lion in Chongwen hall.


    "Really? What do I think of him? He''s not so terrible! Even the big brother is not strong!" a cute voice said weakly, which people couldn''t help loving.


    "Yuzi, don''t be deceived by his outside. After you go to school, you will know how terrible the great demon king is. You want to know when the water in the pool will be full when one outlet pipe will discharge water and the other drain pipe will discharge water?" Zhengtai''s voice was full of grief and anger.


    "Brother Jiu, isn''t that a waste of water? Why don''t you turn off the drain pipe?" said Meng Meng''s voice.


    "I don''t know. That problem was created by the demon king." Zhengtai angrily accused him.


    Morton smelled the words and moved. Brother nine, Yuzi and two children were outside the Chongwen hall, but the bodyguard turned a blind eye. That''s only one possibility.


    They are the ninth Prince of King Li Zhi of Jin and Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang. They thought they had a small voice and hid well behind the stone lion. No one found them.


    Merton smiled bitterly. The biggest devil in his heart was Li Er, but he didn''t think he had become the devil in others'' hearts. Li Zhi was obviously Merton''s victim of countless primary school students'' math problems.


    "It''s not a gentleman''s style to speak ill of others behind others!" Merton deliberately teased two people with a straight face.


    "Ah! Brother nine, what if the demon king finds us?" Princess Jinyang''s voice was a little urgent.


    "Don''t be afraid, son. Brother nine will protect you!" Li Zhi stood up and said.


    "What did I say?" a seven year old lady jumped out from behind the stone lion, her face full of sadness and anger. Behind him, a four or five-year-old girl, wearing a goose yellow robe, her baby fat face was all nervous, and her small hands tightly grasped the corners of Li Zhi''s clothes.


    "See your Highness the king of Jin, Princess Jinyang!"


    Before that, he had ignored Merton''s bodyguard and bowed.


    Merton looked at the bodyguard who had been silent before with disdainful eyes. The bodyguard also smiled bitterly. These two hid behind. Of course, they didn''t have to salute, but now that they have come out, they can''t turn a blind eye!


    With the bodyguard, Princess Jinyang was not so nervous. Looking at Merton, she said, "who are you? Why bully brother nine!"


    "Merton in Mojia village has seen his highness King Jin and Princess Jinyang!" Merton just despised the bodyguard and despised himself by the way. Who makes them Royal!


    "Brother nine is cheating again. Why is Merton the great devil? I heard that Merton is fun and there are many strange things. Last time Xiao Jin was about to die, my mother saved Xiao Jin with Merton''s method!" Princess Jinyang looked at Merton curiously. Xiao Jin is a koi. Once she put Xiao Jin in a water basin, As a result, Xiao Jin soon lost oxygen and turned his stomach. It was the empress Chang sun who personally taught Princess Jinyang to blow into the water, which allowed Xiao Jin to survive.


    Princess Jinyang was overjoyed to see Xiao Jin saved by herself. Empress changsun specially explained the principle to Princess Jinyang, and explained Mozi''s trustworthiness for thousands of years, catfish effect and Merton''s invention of live fish as a story to Princess Jinyang, so Princess Jinyang was very profound to Merton, He never thought that the great devil in the mouth of brother nine was the great hero Merton in his heart.


    "Don''t be deceived by him, Naoko. You don''t know how terrible Merton''s math problem is!" Li Zhi was very anxious. He didn''t expect that his strongest ally had been plotted so quickly.


    "Really? How do I think arithmetic is very simple!" Merton teased Zhengtai Li Zhi.


    "Let me ask you! Do you know how much twelve times nine plus twenty-one equals?" Li Zhi shouted.


    "One hundred and twenty-nine!" Merton opened his mouth.


    Merton suddenly chuckled. It turned out that Li Zhi''s was a hybrid operation.


    "Fifteen times seven plus twenty brackets and then divided by five!" Li Zhi said the most terrible question in his heart.


    "Twenty five!"


    Merton suddenly found that he seemed to have been fooled. After hearing Merton''s answer, Lizhi suddenly picked up the paper from his backpack behind him and nodded with satisfaction.


    Merton immediately felt that his IQ was declining. He was cheated by a seven-year-old to do his homework.

 Chapter 96

    "What about 25 times 720 minus 65?" a voice sounded behind Merton.


    "Seventeen thousand nine hundred and thirty-five." Merton answered subconsciously, but suddenly realized how Lizhi''s voice was changed into that of an adult, and the problem was too difficult for a seven-year-old child!


    Merton subconsciously looked back and found that Li Shimin appeared behind Merton with a black face.


    Merton couldn''t help but have a sudden in his heart. This time, the great demon king really came.


    "See you, your majesty!" Morton, with a faint heart, quickly turned back and bowed.


    "See your father!" Li Zhi''s small face was pale with fear. For him, what he was most afraid of was Li Shimin, and it happened that Li Shimin caught him cheating Merton to help him with his homework.


    Li Shimin''s face was gloomy and he was about to get angry.


    Li Zhi''s liver trembled carefully. He couldn''t help but turn his eyes to his last magic weapon, Princess Jinyang.


    "Father!"


    The soft voice of Jinyang rang out and sprang at Li Shimin.


    "Hahaha! How did you sneak out again, Naoko!" Li Er, like an old student of Sichuan Opera, immediately changed from a black face to a smiling face and picked up the princess Jinyang who jumped into her arms.


    "Nine elder brothers said to take Yuzi to see the great demon king! He said that after Yuzi entered school, he would know how terrible the great demon king is?" said Princess Jinyang in a delicate voice.


    Li Zhi suddenly turned pale. He was completely betrayed.


    "The great demon king?" Li Er looked at Merton contemptuously, as if to say that he could be called the great demon king, just like a small catfish.


    "Your Highness king of Jin is joking!" Merton said with a dry smile.


    "Yes! Yes! The child is joking!" Li Zhi giggled and nodded.


    When Li Er arrived, all the princes quickly got the news and immediately poured out.


    "See your father!" the princes said together under the leadership of Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian took the lead. Li Zhi, who was the last to enter school, ranked last, and nine princes stood neatly.


    Merton looked at the nine princes arranged in high and low from the back, not including the swaddling princes in the harem. Merton couldn''t help smacking his tongue and admired Li Er''s stallion attribute. If he was in an ordinary family, he couldn''t afford it at all!


    Li Chengqian looked at Merton and couldn''t help blinking and nodding slightly. Other princes also turned their curious eyes to the strange boy.


    Merton showed his signature smile, hugged his fist and saluted: "Merton in Mojia village, see you princes!"


    "Merton!"


    The rest of the princes could not help but fret. The little fat man behind Li Chengqian showed an excited look, while the princes behind him showed a look of resentment one by one, including Li Zhi.


    In Li Zhi''s short school experience, he originally thought that endorsement was the most painful thing, but since Li Chengqian learned arithmetic from outside, Li Zhi found that endorsement could not continue to recite, but if he couldn''t learn arithmetic, he couldn''t scratch his scalp!


    In his mind, it was not the demon king or something that could come up with such a abnormal problem.


    Chongwen Museum.


    Li Shimin was sitting upright. Next to him, an old man with gray hair sat down and was looking at himself with interest. Merton nodded and smiled at him as a greeting.


    The old man was stunned. He didn''t expect to get Merton''s response. He also smiled and nodded.


    "Wei Aiqing! How is your prince''s academic progress?" Li Shimin asked the nearby.


    Merton looked very active. His surname was Wei. He could sit down in front of Li Shimin again. There was only one person who had such treatment - Wei Zheng.


    "Under avoidance, the schoolwork of the princes is progressing very smoothly. Even the youngest nine princes have recited thousands of words skillfully." Wei Zheng replied with an arched hand.


    "Oh! What about arithmetic?" Li Shimin asked.


    Wei Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "tell your majesty that the new arithmetic is easy to learn but difficult to master. All princes are still groping. I think it will improve in time."


    In fact, Wei Zheng has said this in a round way. Except for Li Chengqian, who was personally taught by Merton, Li Tai, the king of Wei, who is very talented and smart, learned the best. Other princes can be said to be a mess, especially Li you, the king of Qi, who is making trouble. It''s nonsense.


    "Easy to learn but hard to master?" Li Shimin said with a flash. "I saw Merton outside Chongwen hall just now, but he opened his mouth to arithmetic. Can''t Merton try?"


    When Merton heard the speech, he immediately felt that he was wronged like Dou E. your own son didn''t learn. He even said that I didn''t hide and teach.


    "Oh! Mo xianbo has such a unique skill?" Wei Zheng was surprised.


    "If you go back to the Duke of Zheng, it''s not a boy hiding private things. This is the method of lightning mental arithmetic. You need to learn arithmetic for a period of time before you can start practicing."


    "Lightning mental arithmetic? Mohism has such a unique skill!" Wei Zheng said with a look.


    "Go back to my father! I also want to see Mo xianbo''s mental arithmetic. I wonder if I can ask Mo xianbo to demonstrate it." little fat Li Tai said excitedly.


    Wei Zheng said with a moving look, "if only the nine princes could write questions in turn and let Mo xianbo answer!"


    "You don''t always complain that arithmetic is too difficult. Now there is an opportunity in front of you. Let Merton answer the most difficult questions and see if they are too difficult or you haven''t learned them well!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice.


    "Yes!"


    All the princes could not help showing an excited look, and all were eager to try.


    So before Merton opened his mouth, a competition was so happily decided.


    Li Er looked at a group of princes who were excited to give questions. A smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. He turned to the listless Merton and said, "Merton, if you answer wrong, we''ll calculate your recent account."


    Li Shimin showed Mori''s white teeth and threatened.


    Merton immediately fought a cold war and quickly cheered up. He couldn''t even cope with it. The problem of offending the prince should be solved in the future! At present, we still pass Li Shimin first.


    Soon all the princes finished the topic and looked at Merton eagerly.


    Li Zhi took the lead in solving the problem. Unfortunately, his level of arithmetic is limited, and his knowledge is within the hundred digits. Although he has made every effort to work out the mixed addition and subtraction of five numbers, Merton still opened his mouth and gave his answer at the first moment when Li Zhi finished reading the problem.


    "That''s right!" Wei Zheng said with a nod.


    "Hey!"


    Accompanied by Li Zhi''s disappointment.


    The other princes showed extremely interested eyes, which was so simple in such a troublesome calculation.


    Lightning mental arithmetic is really not simple.


    Then, although the other princes racked their brains to make a question, they still did not bring the slightest trouble to Merton.


    Soon, Li Ke, the Third Prince of Wu, was also defeated. His topic was the mixed operation of multi digit addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and gave ten numbers at once.


    "Three hundred twenty-four!"


    Merton gave the answer at three breath time.


    "Wow!"


    The princes could not help crying out.


    You can''t even finish writing questions in three interest time! And the mojiazi has written out the answer.


    "It''s so fast!" Wei Zheng was shocked to see that he had just set aside three figures.


    This time, even Li Shimin''s eyes were full of brilliance.


    "Mo County Bo''s mathematics is really unique, and Xiao Wang admires it!" said Li Ke, king of Wu in admiration.


    "Your Highness the king of Wu is very kind. I''m just taking advantage of the calculation!" Merton hurriedly said modestly.


    He was also deeply interested in the tragic prince. Li Ke, king of Wu, had the royal blood of Sui and Tang Dynasties. He was the most noble blood in the world, but that was also his deepest original sin. Finally, he died unjustly.


    "Xiao Wang and Li Tai have met Mo County uncle!" said the fat man Li Tai politely.


    "I''ve seen your Highness the king of Wei!" Merton dare not underestimate this famous figure in history. According to historical records, Li Tai, the king of Wei, is a standard Xueba!


    He was born well and worked hard. He almost abused all the princes. No wonder he was deeply loved by Li Shimin and even threatened Li Chengqian''s position as Prince for a time.


    "This time, the Green Finch is interested!"


    When Li Shimin saw Li Tai''s expression, he knew that Li Tai must be holding a big move.


    Sure enough, Li Tai started his topic, and the whole audience was in an uproar. His topic had only two numbers, two super long numbers divided by each other.


    "One five eight seven six five nine three seven one eight two divided by six one eight four nine five."


    "Wow!"


    There was an uproar. How can such a long number count.


    All the princes adore Li Tai. It''s still the second brother. Let''s see how the Mexican family calculates it.


    Wei Zheng looked around at the calculation chip in his hand and didn''t know how to start. Li Shimin also looked at Merton with great interest and wanted to see a little panic in Merton''s eyes.


    "Two five six six nine six nine." after only five minutes, Merton suddenly looked up and gave the answer.


    "Wow!"


    "How is that possible?"


    "How can you work out the answer so quickly!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone was in an uproar. Li Shimin stood up and looked at Merton in disbelief.


    "Second brother, is Merton''s answer correct?" asked King Wu Li Ke incredulously.


    Li Tai twitched his face and said, "if I say I made up a question casually, I don''t know the answer myself, do you believe it?"


    Finally, after a quarter of an hour of calculation, Li Chengqian and Li Tai finally calculated the super long problem.


    "The answer is correct!" Li Chengqian looked at the answer in his hand and breathed heavily.


    Suddenly, everyone was boiling. Everyone looked at Merton strangely. Such a large number was calculated in a short time. Lightning mental calculation was God.


    Merton smiled in his heart, what is this? You didn''t see some radio competitions in future generations. Those topics are really abnormal, and how warm the atmosphere is.


    Merton lost eight princes in a row, leaving Prince Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian looked at the title in his hand, sighed and said, "all the arithmetic knowledge in this palace is received by Mo xianbo, so he won''t make a fool of himself. This palace admits defeat!"


    So far, Merton vs nine princes.


    Total victory.

 Chapter 97

    "So powerful!"


    Everyone looked at Merton in amazement, as if he were a monster.


    "I want to learn! I want to learn lightning mental arithmetic!" little Zhengtai Li Zhi''s eyes are shining. He calculates so quickly. It''s not easy for him to do his homework in the future. How much time can he save to play!


    "Don''t worry, your highness. Lightning mental arithmetic needs a lot of practice and a solid foundation of arithmetic. I can''t succeed until I practice hard for three years." Merton''s words mercilessly exposed Li Zhi''s dream.


    "Three years of success?" many princes suddenly extinguished their mind of learning, and Li Shimin was also slightly disappointed. Unlike others, the princes need to learn too many things. Such calculation can be calculated slowly with ordinary methods, and there is no need to spend a lot of time on it.


    "Hey!"


    Li Zhi was immediately disappointed, and his little face suddenly drooped. He was the youngest and had the worst foundation in mathematics. He was blocked if he wanted to take a shortcut.


    Merton looked at Li Zhi''s disappointed expression, but he couldn''t bear it. Suddenly he saw the calculation chip in Wei Zheng''s hand and said, "but compared with lightning calculation, there are some relatively simple calculation, such as abacus calculation with the help of calculation chip and the simplest calculation."


    "Mental abacus, finger counting!" Li Shimin frowned and looked at Merton.


    He can understand the abacus mental arithmetic, but what''s the matter? Does he still want to train all the front princes into divine sticks? Although they think they are the descendants of Lao Tzu, they don''t intend to be divine sticks.


    When a prince did his homework, he pinched his fingers and counted. Who knows whether it was really calculated or guessed.


    Merton hurriedly explained: "elementary school children will count with their fingers when they are initially exposed to arithmetic. Finger counting is to increase the accuracy and speed of counting on the basis of finger counting. It is most suitable for elementary school children."


    Merton simply demonstrated the method of finger counting. After Li Zhi tried it, he easily worked out some problems he thought were very difficult, and immediately smiled. This method is very suitable for him. Usually some problems can be solved soon.


    As for Li Ke and other princes, they chose abacus mental arithmetic. Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian and Li Tai chose the most difficult lightning mental arithmetic.


    At this time, Merton finally saw the signs of the two. Considering the rumors of the two in future generations, he wisely shut up.


    Everyone got what they wanted. As soon as Li Shimin waved, all the princes immediately looked like birds and animals, of which Li Zhi ran the fastest.


    Merton also wants to go, but Li Shimin hasn''t spoken yet. Obviously, he doesn''t want to let him go. When Li Chengqian left, he gave him an expression of helplessness and left without loyalty.


    "You can toss things around! Even if you visit a brothel, you can make a scene all over the city! Now the whole Chang''an city is spreading your name of Merton." Li Shimin has no expression, but Merton really has a sudden heart. He doesn''t say that he won''t settle accounts. Why did he suddenly change his mind? Do people have integrity.


    "The decathlon Mexican family. I''ve heard of it!"


    The old man Wei Zheng is unkind. He even came to mend the knife at this time.


    "Decathlon?" Merton could not help frowning. Who gave him the title? Didn''t he win him?


    "Well... In fact, the boy still has many shortcomings!" Merton said a few words and then said.


    "Hum! You still know humility!" Li Shimin snorted coldly and looked at Merton for a moment of helplessness! The boy is capable and talented, but he just keeps going and can make big things wherever he goes.


    "The Mohist school has been silent for thousands of years, and you have been cultivated as a tired slacker!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    "If you return to your majesty, the Mohist school has been silent for thousands of years, but you have devoted yourself to learning, and what the boy has learned is just a fur." Merton said positively.


    Li Shimin nodded and said unintentionally, "it''s said that this figure comes from Tianzhu. So the Mohist sages have also been to Tianzhu, and an eminent monk in our Dynasty once went to Tianzhu to ask for the Scriptures! According to the news from the border, the eminent monk Xuan Zang has already passed through the western countries. It must have been experienced by the Mohist sages, and I don''t know if there are records of the western regions." Li Shimin asked.


    Merton understood Li Shimin''s intention. He wanted to point at the western regions!


    Merton shook his head and said, "back to your majesty, it''s a long way from the western regions. I''m afraid it will take four years for the eminent monk Xuanzang to reach Tianzhu, but it took only one year for the Mohist sages to enter from the Tibetan Plateau. When they returned, they chose to return by sea in order to avoid suffering from altitude reaction again. It only took more than half a year to reach Lingnan road."


    "I''m off the road!" Li Shimin and Wei Zheng looked at each other.


    "In order to show his sincerity, master Xuanzang took the initiative to choose the most difficult way!" Merton was deeply influenced by the "9981 difficulty" of later generations and gave the answer he thought most.


    Buddhism has always said to practice hard. Li Shimin didn''t doubt it and nodded.


    "Could it be that your new painting skills that fascinated Yan Liben also came from Tianzhu?" Wei Zheng asked.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Lord Wei doesn''t know. This new painting skill comes not from Tianzhu, but from the far west to the west of Tianzhu."


    "The Far West? Persia?" Li Shimin asked after thinking about the great country in the West in his memory.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it comes from a region west of Persia, which is no less than the territory empire of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Impossible?" Li Shimin and Wei Zheng exclaimed.


    In their historical recognition, China has always been the center of the world and the most powerful country in the world. Now Merton suddenly says that there is a great empire in the world that is no less powerful than Tang Dynasty,


    Merton gritted his teeth and said, "Merton didn''t believe that there was a powerful country comparable to the Tang Dynasty in the world at the beginning, but according to the records of Mohist sages, in this world, Chinese culture can only be regarded as one of them, and three cultural holy places are as old as the Tang Dynasty. Tianzhu is one, Persia and other places are also one, and the great empire in the Far West is also one."


    Li Shimin and Wei Zheng didn''t want to believe this fact. At first, the cultures of Persia and Tianzhu were there, and it''s not uncommon to see another one.


    "Unlike China, Tianzhu and Persia, the Empire in the Far West has been in existence for 1500 years since the founding of the people''s Republic of China. Its culture is prosperous and well preserved, which is unimaginable. The new painting technology is only a trivial one." Merton showed Li Shimin and Wei Zheng a grand world, Directly subverted their imagination.


    "1500 years!" Li Shimin smacked his tongue.


    You know, Chinese dynasties change very frequently, and the longest Han Dynasty only existed for 400 years. Li Shimin was confident that he would not lose to any emperor, but he was not confident that the Tang Dynasty would survive beyond the Han Dynasty.


    Looking at the look in Li Shimin''s eyes, Merton immediately knew Li Shimin''s thoughts, slightly bowed his head and said, "since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the ancestors of the Mohist school have set the rules of the Mohist school, devoted themselves to studying knowledge and no longer participated in politics. Mozi''s secret book does not record the political strategy of the far western country."


    Merton certainly can''t say that the ancient Roman Empire also experienced various changes in the throne. All it retained was the name of Rome, especially the Republic that the emperor hated.


    (at that time, the place ruled by Persia was the territory of the Babylonian kingdom of Cuba, while the Roman Empire included ancient Egyptian and ancient Greek culture.)

 Chapter 98

    Li Shimin sighed with regret, but he did not investigate too much. After all, an unconfirmed problem was not enough to shake his mind.


    At the moment, Princess Jinyang kept playing coquettish in Li Shimin''s arms and whispering in Li Shimin''s ear.


    Li Shimin looked at Princess Jinyang with a spoiled face, stared at Merton with hatred and said, "for the sake of Jinyang, I''ll spare you this time! If you dare to fool around again, be careful and get the board again!"


    Merton was relieved. It seemed that he had muddled through this time.


    "Thank you, Princess Jinyang!" Merton quickly thanked Princess Jinyang.


    "I haven''t thanked you for saving Xiao Jin yet?" Princess Jinyang looked very cute.


    Merton had an idea and said, "it''s better for her majesty to love her daughter. Princess Jinyang knows books and is reasonable. If Merton doesn''t let Merton paint this picture of family happiness and keep it forever."


    Merton found Li Shimin''s weakness, especially the beloved Princess Jinyang. It''s better to please Li Shimin''s little cotton padded jacket than to please Li Shimin.


    "Yes! Yes! Yuzi will always accompany her father!" Princess Jinyang was very happy and cheered when she heard that Merton was going to paint for him and Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin also had a bright eye, but he still looked at Wei Zheng with a little worry.


    Wei Zheng reluctantly glanced at Merton. This guy''s flattery is really impossible to prevent. However, he saw the look of expectation on the face of Princess Jinyang, and he couldn''t say anything about his advice. If it was just Li Shimin himself, Wei Zheng would have to advise, but Merton''s reason is aboveboard, so he can''t disturb Li Shimin''s family happiness!


    "Little slick!"


    Wei Zheng said in his heart.


    "OK, today I''ll learn how to get the new painting skills that make Yan Liben intoxicated." Li Shimin laughed loudly when he saw Wei Zhengwei''s retort.


    Not only Li Shimin but also Wei Zheng looked forward to it. In his capacity, he could not go to teach Si Fang to watch Merton''s paintings in person. That doesn''t mean he is not curious about the new painting skills that are said to be like real people.


    Originally, when Merton entered the Palace this time, he was going to return the painting owed to Li Chengqian, so he took a pencil with him. Now it''s just the pie field.


    Sharpen the pencil and lay the rice paper. Everything is ready.


    "Please sit down with Princess Jinyang in your arms!" Merton motioned.


    Hearing Merton''s words, Princess Jinyang immediately rushed to Li Shimin''s arms and tightly hugged Li Shimin''s neck. At the moment, Li Shimin lost the majesty of the emperor. She smiled and kindly hugged Princess Jinyang, and her daughter and father were kind, a pair of harmonious family happiness.


    Merton deeply remembered this picture, and the pencil in his hand kept Shua Shua, restoring this picture to the paper to the greatest extent. Merton painted this picture with extra care.


    After a long time, Merton dropped his pencil and said with a sigh of relief to Li Shimin, who was already stiff holding Princess Jinyang: "Your Majesty, it has been painted."


    Li Shimin glared at Merton fiercely. He didn''t expect that the boy should be so troubled in painting. If you don''t draw well, you''ll look better than this boy.


    Merton was stunned by Li Shimin and couldn''t help feeling empty. Fortunately, he had confidence in his painting skills.


    "Your Majesty, look!" Morton said confidently.


    Li Shimin was also curious about what the boy drew after playing drums for so long. He immediately got up and came to the table.


    "Hiss! Is this me?"


    Li Shimin looked as like as two peas in the paper, a loving father wrapped his arms around a charming daughter. His daughter was true to life. His father''s face was more clear than his bronze mirror. The new style of painting was so vivid that Li Shimin was shocked and shocked.


    "Father emperor! What''s the matter? Is it not good-looking?" Princess Jinyang was not tall enough to reach the table. She anxiously padded her feet and stretched her head to see the contents of the portrait.


    Li Shimin suddenly realized that he remembered Jinyang and said kindly, "of course not. How can my son be ugly?"


    Li Shimin picked up the princess of Jinyang and stood her on the chair to facilitate the princess of Jinyang to see the painting.


    "Hee hee, this is my father, and I am in his arms!" Princess Jinyang immediately recognized the characters in the painting when she saw the content in the painting,. Princess Jinyang is young and can''t tell whether the painting is good or bad, but she likes it when she sees that she and her father are so lifelike.


    Wei Zheng couldn''t bear the curiosity in his heart. He got up and came to the table. Seeing the lifelike father and daughter in the painting, he couldn''t help exclaiming: "it''s a new painting skill that makes Lord Yan feel inferior. It''s so lifelike."


    Wei Zheng was a great minister. He was well-informed, and painters of all schools had seen it, but no one''s painting skills had never been shocked.


    Morton modestly said, "Lord Wei flattered me. Lord Yan Liben is a painting master who is the twenty-four meritorious heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. Morton also admires him."


    "Lingyan Pavilion?" Li Shimin and Wei Zhengqi looked at each other.


    "Er, ER!" when Merton saw the confused expression of the two people, he couldn''t help but clapping in his heart. Should Lingyan Pavilion have not been built yet!


    Merton wiped his cold sweat and hurriedly said, "this is an idea of Weichen. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, kings and ministers have obtained each other. If we establish a Lingyan Pavilion and worship the portraits of all meritorious officials on Lingyan Pavilion, it will express the friendship between your majesty and all meritorious founding officials."


    Li Shimin and Wei Zheng couldn''t help breathing when they heard the speech. For Li Shimin, this is an excellent means to buy people''s hearts. For Wei Zheng, it has become a good story to be able to accept the sacrifice of future generations in Lingyan Pavilion.


    Merton then said, "second, it can inspire future generations to make contributions to the Tang Dynasty. As long as they make contributions to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will never forget his contributions. Why don''t you take Wu hook and collect 50 states of Guanshan? Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a Marquis of ten thousand families."


    "Please go to Lingyan Pavilion for a while, if you are a scholar and a marquis!" Wei Zheng shook his mind and recalled his days in those turbulent years.


    "What a Lingyan Pavilion, what a marquis!" Li Shimin is elated in his eyes. Datang attaches great importance to military achievements and is eager to open up Xinjiang and expand land. If a Lingyan Pavilion is established, it can not only gather the hearts of meritorious officials, but also inspire future generations to make contributions to Datang, isn''t it the best of both worlds?


    "Lord Yan is the most famous painter in the Tang Dynasty. I think he is the best candidate for the portrait of meritorious officials in Lingyan Pavilion." Merton breathed a sigh of relief and finally solved the flaw.


    Merton escaped from Chongwen hall in embarrassment and despised Li Shimin and Wei Zheng. After they heard the Lingyan Pavilion plan, they didn''t want to delay for a moment. They immediately muttered and began to discuss, and they had no time to find Merton''s trouble again. Merton finally made it through.

 Chapter 99

    Although Merton''s five-day vacation was very difficult, when the vacation ended, Merton was still reluctant for a while. It seems that the day of eating and waiting for the dead young master is still far away.


    When Merton came to the Imperial College again, he immediately felt the strange eyes of other students, which made Merton confused.


    Zu Mingjun walked around Merton for a few times, as if he had just known him. He had just been dragged back to Fan Yang''s hometown by the elders of the Zu family, offered sacrifices to his ancestors, and told Zu Chong that another talent appeared in the descendants of the Zu family, which had just been released.


    "Have something to say!" Merton was looked angry.


    "I didn''t expect you to have such peerless painting skills! Just a few days after I left Chang''an City, you made a big deal again." Zu Chongzhi smacked his tongue. At the beginning, he came forward to compare arithmetic with Merton. He didn''t expect that Merton was so hidden that there were still unique skills.


    "What is this? The young master has more skills!" said Merton.


    "Worthy of being the son of the decathlon Mohist family." Zu Mingjun thumbed up, but his expression didn''t mean to appreciate.


    At the beginning, Mohist School spread in Chang''an city with a derogatory meaning, saying that Merton is just a yellow haired boy of Mohist school. Now when Merton has repeatedly created miracles, people say that Mohist school has no derogatory meaning anymore.


    "Fuck you!"


    If they fight, they will arrive at the class. This class should be the class of Dr. Shen Hongcai.


    During his vacation in Merton, although Merton thought it was very difficult, there was one person who was more difficult than him, that was Shen Hongcai, doctor of mathematics.


    Throughout the Tang Dynasty, Shen Hongcai thought that his level of arithmetic could surpass his own very few. Of course, recently, with an evil mojiazi, there may be ancestors in the future.


    But since Kong huisuo took the math notes from Zu Mingjun, everything was in a mess.


    Kong huisuo seems to have taken medicine. His level of arithmetic has increased in a straight line, which naturally attracted the attention of other supervisor students. Arithmetic is now an important subject related to the graduation of Guozi supervisor students. Now all Guozi supervisor students with poor arithmetic are not calm.


    After learning that Merton didn''t care about the spread of his new arithmetic, all the National Children''s supervisors in bingshe where Merton was located had a transcribed note of Zu Mingjun overnight.


    Although not taught by Merton himself, don''t underestimate the students who can enter the Imperial College. Except for those who go through the back door like Chumo, others are comparable to the students of the highest University in the future.


    They are extremely smart and have good mathematical skills. Moreover, Arabic numerals and stepping up multiplication and division of squares are not very difficult problems. Therefore, overnight, the computational level of the national son supervisor of bingshe improved as a whole.


    It is reasonable to say that students should be happy with their good grades, but what if a student''s grades are too good and even surpass the teacher?


    Some questions Shen Hongcai still needs to think for a long time and calculate for a long time to get the correct answer, while the students of bingshe opened their mouths and answered them in an instant.


    Moreover, such students are not one, but all classes. Over time, I''m afraid Shen Hongcai is the worst teacher in the class, which makes Shen Hongcai feel embarrassed.


    Fortunately, it is not difficult to find out the reasons for the rise in students'' scores. When Shen Hongcai looked at the Arabic numerals and various mathematical formulas in his hands, he could not help himself for a long time.


    "What a decathlon Mo family, what a Tianzhu number!" Shen Hongcai was deeply impressed by his floating mind.


    At the classroom door of C house,


    Shen Hongcai hesitated, took a deep breath and pushed the door in. Today he will make a decision, a decision that will affect his life.


    Shen Hongcai stood in front of the brand-new blackboard and looked at Merton in the last row. Unconsciously, the Imperial College had deeply left traces of Mohism, including the blackboard, chalk, and what he was about to do.


    "Hello, master!" all the students of bingshe stood up and said hello.


    "Please sit down!" Shen Hongcai was slightly relieved. Even if these students exceeded themselves in calculation, they still respected their teachers.


    Shen Hongcai took a deep breath and turned back to write down the nine figures from zero to nine on the blackboard, and it was written from left to right.


    Today, he not only formally accepted the Tianzhu numbers, but also accepted the calculation method of Tianzhu numbers, from left to right, which subverts the existing writing rules from ancient times to the present.


    When Shen Hongcai really wrote down these ten numbers, Shen Hongcai deeply realized what Merton said about the writing rules, which has nothing to do with dignity or inferiority, but just habits.


    In the past, when Shen Hongcai used the blackboard, he wrote from top to bottom and from right to left. Every time he wrote, he would hold his wrist and write. He was very tired. Rao was so tired that after such a class, his sleeves were all chalk ash.


    It is not only unsightly, but also sometimes blurs the written words, which is very inconvenient. There are no such problems when writing from left to right.


    "Wise master!" all the students of bingshe understood the meaning of the ten numbers written by the master and couldn''t help cheering.


    Merton was also stunned and looked at Shen Hongcai, who seemed a little excited in front of the blackboard. He couldn''t help but respect him. This is a real scholar. The most important thing in his life is learning. For learning, he can break through all the obstacles in the world.


    After Shen Hongcai really did these things, he suddenly felt clear in his heart. Of course, he knew that doing so might ruin his future in the Imperial College, but he still had no regrets.


    "I guess I''m the last one in this class to touch these numbers. Maybe you''ll think I''m an old stubborn! But today, I''m also conquered by these beautiful numbers. I''m here with all the students to thank Merton for teaching such secret skills." Shen Hongcai said and bowed deeply to Merton.


    Morton was startled. He quickly got up and saluted: "the master praised me. These numbers are not the secret skills of Mohist school, but Tianzhu numbers. Mohist school can''t take credit for them."


    Shen Hongcai smiled bitterly. Of course, he knew what Merton meant. Since it was not a thing of Mohism, it would not involve the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism. In this way, he could have a reason to refute when he was questioned in the future.


    However, there is not so much truth in this world. Since he decided to use the Tianzhu number, he has been prepared for the face of the storm.


    Shen Hongcai understood it and kept it in his mind.


    Turn back and write the 99 multiplication formula table on the blackboard, as well as various methods of numerical operation.


    All the students can see that Shen Hongcai teaches in a hurry. Obviously, these knowledge can''t be taught in a class, but Shen Hongcai ignores them and throws them all out in class.


    Everyone in bingshe has a hunch that this is Shen Hongcai''s last lesson!


    Even though they already know all this knowledge, everyone still listens very carefully and doesn''t miss a bit.


    Soon, a class was over.


    Shen Hongcai put down his chalk and looked nostalgically at all the students in bingshe.


    "Put the hall!" Shen Hongcai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but gathered into two words.

 Chapter 100

    "Master Shen has been suspended!"


    The news spread like the wind throughout the Imperial College, causing an uproar among all the imperial college students.


    The Imperial College moved quickly. When Shen Hongcai finished all the classes, he immediately announced the decision.


    "It''s unfair!" Zu Mingjun said angrily. Shen Hongcai is his benefactor. He once had a kindness to him. Now Shen Hongcai has been unfairly treated. Zu Mingjun was the first to fight against injustice.


    Others nodded and sighed again and again. Although they were shocked by the decision, they also had a hunch. After all, the abnormal situation before master Shen had already predicted what was happening at the moment.


    "No, master Shen is really unfair! Master Shen is a real scholar! He has no selfishness. Everything he does is for arithmetic." Kong huisuo''s eyes are red and doesn''t understand the decision of the Imperial College.


    Mr. Shen Mingming did a good deed, but did not get any return. Instead, he was suspended. Moreover, this suspension directly means that Shen Hongcai''s struggle life was ruined before he got the status of Dr. Guozi.


    Merton also has a heavy heart. He admires Shen Hongcai, a pure scholar.


    The rest of the students in bingshe also sighed for a while. The whole school was silent, and they were at a loss. They didn''t know what to do.


    "Merton, you have many ideas. Can you help Mr. Shen?" Zu Mingjun said, staring at Merton with red eyes, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.


    Other supervisors were also shocked and looked at Merton one after another. After all, Merton has created many miracles, maybe this time.


    "Brother Zu, you''re looking for the wrong person. Brother Kong is the home of the wine worship Lord. You don''t need to rely on me, who is not popular with the Imperial College." Merton shook his head.


    Kong huisuo glared at Merton in shame and said, "it''s because of this that I know more about the wine worship Lord. It''s impossible to make sense."


    In Kong huisuo''s mind, what Kong Yingda decided has hardly changed. He doesn''t think he has the ability to change Kong Yingda''s idea.


    When they heard the speech, they were disappointed. If even Kong huisuo said so, master Shen''s future might be uncertain this time.


    "Good fortune comes with bad luck, and bad fortune comes with good fortune. It''s not a bad thing that master Shen was suspended by the Imperial College this time? The Imperial College didn''t want master Shen. We were waiting in the Mojia village, and the salary was double that of Dr. Guozi. After that, master Shen devoted himself to studying mathematics, and his achievements were no less than those of any predecessors in mathematics." Merton suddenly said.


    Merton didn''t lie. In his mind, there were many mathematical theories. I believe that if he took one or two and handed them to Shen Hongcai, it is estimated that master Shen will be called a master of mathematics immediately.


    Zu Mingjun saw that Merton not only didn''t give an idea, but thought of digging at the foot of the wall. He couldn''t help but said angrily, "Merton, master Shen ended up like this because of your new arithmetic. It can be said that the cause is you. Do you say you can help?"


    "Yes!" Kong huisuo and other Imperial College Students echoed one after another.


    "I''m not doing this for Mr. Shen. Anyway, he''s not happy in the Imperial College!" Merton said wrongfully.


    But seeing the angry eyes of the people, he also knew that he was about to provoke the anger of the people. He quickly said, "I have such an idea, but it doesn''t matter. It depends on the effect of your cooperation."


    Zu Mingjun and others immediately brightened their eyes. When they heard Merton say so, they suddenly settled down. Unknowingly, Merton had established his authority in the Imperial College.


    At this time, Qin Huaiyu and the three suddenly rushed in and said, "Merton, I''ve made it clear. Now I''m counting the guys in Jiashe who have been saying bad things about master Shen."


    "That''s unreasonable!" Zu Mingjun and others were furious. They didn''t expect that master Shen had paid such a great sacrifice for the national son''s supervisor, and some elm heads didn''t appreciate it.


    Merton sneered that in this era of deep-rooted Confucian dominance, it is not surprising that there are several corrupt scholars, even in the era of information explosion in later generations, not to mention now.


    "Who are they?" Merton asked.


    "Wang Ling is the leader, and there are more than twenty students in charge," Qin Huaiyu said.


    "Wang Ling!" Merton immediately thought of him, the son of the Royal historian. When he first entered the Imperial College, he was the person in the first competition, which sadly became the background board of Merton''s three poems in one city.


    I thought he had learned a lesson after the last incident. Unexpectedly, he jumped out at this time.


    Merton''s eyes turned and said, "now the opportunity comes. Please cooperate with us."


    "It''s all at brother Mo''s command!" Zu Mingjun and others answered one after another.


    Morton nodded and cabled to Kong Hui: "brother Kong, I know you can talk to the sacrificial Lord. Now master Shen has just been suspended. You must delay the punishment of master Shen for five days."


    Kong huisuo clenched his teeth and suddenly nodded: "don''t worry, give this to me!"


    Although it is difficult to change Kong Yingda''s mind, it is not impossible to delay the punishment of master Shen for five days. He must do this even if he is entangled.


    "Brother Zu!" Merton looked at Zu Mingjun.


    Zu Mingjun looked solemn and said, "please tell brother mo."


    "Go to Jiashe now, find the rats who slander master Shen behind his back, argue with them in person, and make an agreement with them that in five days, you will use the method of famous experts on Zhicheng road to discuss the win or lose." Merton said.


    "The method of famous masters!" Zu Mingjun understood what Merton meant when he thought a little. Famous masters were also one of the hundred schools of thought in the pre-Qin period and were best at debate. The most famous one was Gongsun long. His white horse non horse theory has been spread to later generations. Merton wanted to debate with these people this time.


    "OK! Don''t worry, I will do it."


    Although Zu Mingjun doesn''t know Merton''s intention, he can only trust Merton now. He has extraordinary confidence in Merton.


    Watching Zu Mingjun get up and leave, Merton looked at the rest of the country''s son supervisors and said, "five days later, we can really help master Shen. Now I''ll pass you a new knowledge of arithmetic. You must learn it within five days."


    "Brother Mo, don''t worry!"


    All Guozi supervisor students, including Qin Huaiyu, who is usually giggling, also have a solemn face.


    Merton picked up a piece of rice paper and wrote down a series of numbers on the paper. The supervisor from Guozi couldn''t help but surround him. The more he looked, the brighter his eyes were.


    This time it''s just for the sect leader, master Shen. Maybe it''s a great improvement in their arithmetic.

 Chapter 101

    Guozijian Zhicheng road.


    Zhicheng road is a way that the Imperial College often punishes students. I think Qin Huaiyu was a frequent visitor here in those years. Today, Qin Huaiyu came to Zhicheng road not to be punished, but to complete the task assigned by Merton and build the venue.


    "Come on, put these tables and chairs here!" Qin Huaiyu commanded his men loudly.


    More than a dozen powerful men quickly set up the seats on the court, with a rostrum in the middle and tables and chairs on both sides, which is very similar to the debate in the rear.


    Seeing the meeting, the coming and going students of Guozi prison couldn''t help talking. The five-day Guozi prison has been widely spread. The ancestor Mingjun of bingshe and Wang Ling of Jiashe agreed to debate whether Guozi prison should adopt Tianzhu figures in the way of famous experts today.


    "Famous family!"


    Guozi Jiansheng is mostly a scholar bully. Of course, he knows that one of the famous schools of thought in the pre-Qin period, but one of the hundred schools of thought in those days has declined for a long time. Only the Buddhist School occasionally adopts the mode of debating scriptures, which is a bit similar to the famous school in those years. He can''t see the shadow of the famous school at all.


    However, no one thought that in Guozijian, famous scholars who have been around for thousands of years appeared again. Although they only used the name of famous scholars, they have attracted a lot of Guozijian students.


    The two sides agreed that it was already time. Before the time came, many Guozi supervisor students had come to the venue in advance and were excited one by one.


    They have been in touch with Tianzhu digital for a short time. Although they are aware of the benefits of Tianzhu digital, they do not think it is necessary. Therefore, other supervisors do not support Shen Hongcai as the supervisors of bingshe. What they are interested in is famous experts.


    Looking at the cheering Guozi supervisors, Merton felt a little calm. He knew that his plan had succeeded in the first step, and attracted the interest of many Guozi supervisors with the famous masters who had disappeared for thousands of years.


    "Merton, ready!" Qin Huaiyu appeared beside Merton and said.


    Merton looked at a debate venue very similar to that of later generations, nodded and said, "where''s your ancestral name?"


    Qin Huaiyu pointed to the rest area at the back of the venue. Zu Mingjun and Wang Ling led several prison students to gather into two piles, which were under intensive discussion.


    As if aware of Merton''s line of sight, Wang Ling looked up at Merton standing next to the meeting and showed a sarcastic smile.


    He knew that the Tianzhu figures were spread by Merton and that Merton wanted to keep Shen Hongcai, but he would not let Merton''s happiness.


    He was not afraid of the means of famous masters. He thought of all kinds of references in his hands. He didn''t believe that Zu Mingjun could turn out much waves. This time, he wanted Merton to taste the taste of failure.


    "This grandson!" Qin Huaiyu looked at Wang Ling''s provocative smile and couldn''t help being angry.


    "I think he owes a lesson!" Chumo said angrily. Yuchi Jingde silently rolled up his sleeves.


    "Don''t worry!" Merton stopped the three people. Now is not the time to be impulsive. After thinking for a while, he said, "ask about the business of the Wang family in addition to the fresh fish shop. I have to crush them all."


    "Good idea!" Qin Huaiyu nodded with a sinister face.


    "Where''s Kong huisuo? Didn''t he say to preside over the debate?" Merton asked, putting aside his gratitude and resentment for the time being.


    "He is now looking for the sacrificial Lord and wants to persuade the sacrificial Lord to come here, but he hasn''t appeared yet. I''m afraid there''s little chance!" Qin Huaiyu said sadly.


    "It''s all right! I have no choice but to let the sacrificial Lord come," said Merton Zhizhu.


    Suddenly, a group of people came in at the gate of the Imperial College. Merton suddenly brightened his eyes and said, "I''m afraid you have to come forward at this time!"


    "Is this?" Qin Huaiyu said suspiciously.


    "Patriarch of the ancestral family!" Merton smiled.


    "Ha ha, brother Zu came to the Imperial College. It''s impolite for Kong to meet him far away!" Kong Yingda got the news and soon appeared on Zhicheng road.


    If it was the previous ancestral family, Kong Yingda might not take it to heart. However, since Zu Mingjun discovered the parabola, the ancestral family has become famous in the academic community and its status has risen sharply. Moreover, the head of the ancestral family is also an academic resident, and its status is not much lower than Kong Yingda.


    "Zu heard that there was a grand meeting in the Imperial College. Please forgive me for coming!" the head of the Zu family bowed.


    "Where? But some students are just fooling around?" Kong Yingda said softly in the corridor.


    The two said something about the scene. Kong Yingda saw an immortal old man next to the head of the ancestral family and said, "I don''t know this one?"


    "The doctor Hua Yuan met brother Kong. We waited for more than a month before we came to visit. Please forgive me!" old Hua arched his hand.


    "Doctor?" Kong Yingda was shocked. Of course, he knew the newly established Mo hospital near the Imperial College, and he also knew that Mo hospital had been called the most famous hospital in Chang''an City in just a few months.


    The scale is large, the medical skills are exquisite, and the price is very reasonable. All the medicinal materials are clearly priced. What''s more valuable is that as long as the students of the Imperial College are sick and hold the nameplate of the imperial college students, they can directly charge half price.


    "It''s brother Hua! Thank you for taking care of Guozi prison students!" Kong Yingda said respectfully. Anyway, the emergence of Mo hospital is only good for Guozi prison, not bad. Many Guozi prison students benefit.


    Many Guozi supervisor students have noticed the situation here and can''t help but smack their tongue.


    Confucianists, Mohists, doctors and famous scholars, coupled with the ancestral family rising with mathematics, this debate is becoming more and more lively.


    Wang Ling also saw the foreign aid invited by Merton! I can''t help humming in my heart. Whoever you invite, it''s hard not to win the debate.


    Several seats were quickly added at the back of the high platform, and Kong Yingda and his ancestral family chief Hua Lao took their seats respectively.


    Zu Mingjun and Wang Ling led their men and horses to salute Kong Yingda and appeared in their own positions.


    "Hang a banner!" with a wave of Merton''s hand, Qin Huaiyu immediately knew Merton''s attention and whispered, and immediately two huge banners appeared on both sides.


    "The more reason is argued, the more clear the Tao is." Kong Yingda looked at this sentence and couldn''t help nodding. This is indeed a wise saying.


    Other students also nodded one after another, and suddenly felt that famous scholars did have their own uniqueness.


    Kong huisuo, as the host, appeared at the meeting and said, "the more arguments, the clearer the Tao. Today, we will have the first debate here. The theme of this debate is whether Guozi prison students should accept Tianzhu mathematics and the calculation methods of Tianzhu mathematics."


    "However, in view of the fact that the Toastmasters still don''t understand Tianzhu arithmetic, I wonder if you can ask the students of class C to demonstrate the following new arithmetic for the Toastmasters."


    "Oh! The students in the Imperial College must be good. I''m very interested!" the head of the ancestral family said with a look of great interest.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help turning his eyes. Of course, he knew that the patriarch of the ancestral family was doing it on purpose, but he was also very interested in the new mathematics that Shen Hongcai would teach at any cost of his future. He wanted to know how much magic it was.


    "Yes!" Kong Yingda nodded.


    Although Wang Ling is also aware that class C may have something to do, since Kong Yingda has agreed, he can''t refute it and can only acquiesce.


    However, he has absolute confidence in his preparation and does not believe that Merton and others can turn over.


    Qin Huaiyu jumped onto the platform and held a huge blackboard with Chinese zero to nine and Tianzhu numbers zero to nine below.


    Kong Yingda nodded and said he knew. It was just a few numbers. He didn''t feel anything.


    Then, Chumo immediately stunned the audience after he came to the stage. All Guozi supervisors stared at the ten lines of numbers on the blackboard., Half are Chinese characters, half are Tianzhu numbers, and they are all three digits.


    "3623!"


    After only three breath, Zu Mingjun shouted out the answer.


    "How could it be?" the whole audience was in an uproar.


    All the imperial college students are incredible. Looking at Zu Mingjun, it''s impossible to say the answer so quickly?


    Kong Yingda could not help frowning. He was also a great Confucian. He was no stranger to mathematics. How could he answer these questions in three breath time? Was Tianzhu mathematics really effective, or was class C cheating to help Shen Hongcai.


    The head of the ancestral family was not calm. He looked at his grandson in surprise, calculated silently in his heart, nodded and confirmed that the answer was correct.


    Wang Ling sneered in her heart. The more fake you do, the greater the chance of being exposed.


    "I know you don''t believe it. To tell you the truth, I didn''t believe it when I first met. Let me ask this classmate to write a question,


    Kong huisuo came to Wang Ling and pulled up a student from Jiashe. The student thought for a long time and came up with a multi digit mixed operation.


    "Seven thousand five hundred sixty-three!"


    It was still three interest time, and another student in class C opened his mouth and answered.


    Wang Ling and others calculated for a long time. Only then did they admit that the answer was correct.


    "Let me come!" Wang Ling said angrily.


    Wang Ling wrote a calculation that he thought was super difficult, and the result was still calculated in three interest time.


    Kong Yingda, the patriarch of the ancestral family, and even Hua Lao all set questions in turn, which became more and more difficult, but they still failed to cause trouble to Zu Mingjun and others. Even everyone found that there was more than one such talent, and bingshe was everywhere.


    The rest of the time was almost the performance competition of class C. no one paid attention to the debate between Class A and class C.


    How could this happen? Wang Ling was suddenly out of his mind. He was fully prepared, but it can''t be said that the advantage of using Tianzhu arithmetic is too great.


    "Merton, it must be Merton!" Wang Ling immediately gnashed her teeth and thought of someone behind the scenes.


    Yes, it''s Merton. Merton didn''t rely on this famous debate at the beginning. Instead, he spent five days training a mental arithmetic master in class C and directly proved the superiority of Tianzhu numbers with facts. Fortunately, the students in class C didn''t disappoint him.

 Chapter 102

    In the Council Hall of the Imperial College.


    Kong Yingda''s face was calm and silent. There were three chairs on both sides. There were five Guozi doctors sitting in the Imperial College. The third chair on the left was empty. It was obviously Shen Hongcai''s position of the former Guozi doctor.


    "Now discuss the restoration of Shen Hongcai!" Kong Yingda struggled to speak after a long time.


    As soon as this topic came out, four doctors of law and other disciplines bowed their heads and said nothing. Only Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, said with a red face: "worship Lord, why should Shen Hongcai be restored to his post? Adults know that Shen Hongcai has arbitrarily changed the content of his professor and even adopted the new Mohist mathematics. If you don''t punish him, how do others think of my Imperial College and how do they think of my Confucianism."


    Liu Yinian''s words can be said to stand on the commanding heights of Confucianism. This time, Liu Yinian is the most active in dismissing Shen Hongcai.


    In the Imperial College, in addition to Kong Yingda, Liu Yinian is the oldest. He is even expected to take over the post of national son sacrifice after Kong Yingda abdicates.


    Unexpectedly, his majesty suddenly attached importance to mathematics, which led to the sharp improvement of Shen Hongcai''s status and even a faint posture of surpassing Liu Yinian.


    When Liu Yinian heard that Shen Hongcai used Tianzhu arithmetic, he was overjoyed. He directly complained to Kong Yingda and urged him to expel Shen Hongcai from his son prison.


    Even secretly instructed Wang Ling and others to speak ill of Shen Hongcai everywhere, in a vain attempt to stink Shen Hongcai''s reputation and let Shen Hongcai have no chance to turn over.


    I didn''t think that Mohist held a famous debate, which directly changed Kong Yingda''s attention.


    "If Shen Hongcai is expelled, who will teach the arithmetic of the Imperial College?" Kong Yingda said unhappily.


    "There are a lot of famous mathematicians in Chang''an city. The descendants of Liu Hui and the descendants of the ancestral family, with our position as the Imperial College, these people are not trying to come to the Imperial College." Liu Yinian said discontentedly.


    "Then invite them! See if they want to come!" Kong Yingda said angrily.


    Liu Yinian was stunned and didn''t understand what was going on?


    "I''m afraid Dr. Liu doesn''t know yet. Several people who originally intended to serve as a doctor of mathematics have turned down the invitation of the Toastmasters. Now, none of the students who want to have qualifications to enter the Imperial College in Chang''an city are willing to teach in the Imperial College." the doctor of law kindly reminded.


    "Why?"


    Liu Yinian didn''t understand. He immediately seemed to think of something. Suddenly, he was angry and said, "is it Mohist who is making trouble under?"


    The doctor of law shook his head bitterly and said, "brother Liu, haven''t you seen it? Now no one can study Taoism in mathematics. These students."


    "It''s just a group of little boys...!" Liu Yinian suddenly thought of the lightning mental arithmetic performance competition of class C students before the debate, that terrible calculation method and shocking performance.


    "Got caught!"


    Liu Yinian''s face changed suddenly. He finally knew what was wrong. The real intention of the mojiazi was not to defeat Class C with a famous debate. Its real intention was to perform arithmetic before the debate. It was a strong expression of the fact that class C''s level of arithmetic could not be taught by the old-fashioned arithmetic.


    Even if they invite a new doctor of mathematics, they will also face the problem of Shen Hongcai. They still use the original method. Students are more powerful than teachers. If they adopt new mathematics, they will end up in the same way as Shen Hongcai. This is the concern of everyone in Chang''an city. Coming to teach at the Imperial College is not good, but smashes their signboard.


    Liu Yinian slowly raised his head and saw that everyone was happy. Fortunately, such a thing did not fall in their discipline, otherwise Shen Hongcai''s lesson would be his end.


    Kong Yingda saw clearly that this was the conspiracy of Mozi and a kind of forced palace from bottom to top. However, he had to admit that the development of mathematics was beyond control.


    Since the emergence of mojiazi, he first aroused His Majesty''s interest in mathematics with a problem of disaster victims, then threw out Tianzhu figures to inspire Zu Mingjun to discover parabola, and finally developed extraordinary lightning mental calculation and terrible computing power, which directly deterred all mathematicians who coveted the position of doctor of mathematics.


    Now Kong Yingda really understands Shen Hongcai''s struggle at that time. Now, apart from Shen Hongcai, he no longer recognizes that he is competent for Dr. Guozi,


    In silence, Shen Hongcai''s reinstatement was passed.


    When Shen Hongcai appeared at the door of bingshe again, all the students in bingshe cheered.


    "How are you, master?" all the supervisors shouted respectfully. Everyone is respectful of this master who is bent on pursuing knowledge.


    "Thank you?" Shen Hongcai was filled with emotion. He thought this would be the end of his career in the Imperial College. Unexpectedly, these students turned the tide and saved him.


    "Merton, thanks to you this time?" Shen Hongcai said solemnly with a face of vicissitudes in a pavilion of the Imperial College.


    "The master is serious! What didn''t Merton do? It''s everyone''s credit!" Merton said modestly.


    Shen Hongcai smiled, turned off the topic and said, "I''ve seen lightning mental arithmetic. Although it can save a lot of time, it doesn''t seem to be able to promote it on a large scale."


    Shen Hongcai expressed his concern. He found that lightning mental arithmetic is not suitable for promotion. If Guozi monitors that he has been cheated, I''m afraid the consequences will be more serious.


    "The master is wise, but for Guozi students, lightning mental arithmetic is not a problem. At least it is enough to implement it in Guozi University." Merton''s plan is very simple. Even if lightning mental arithmetic can''t be popularized among ordinary people, as long as it is popular within Guozi University, no one can shake Shen Hongcai''s position.


    "It''s really broad and profound to learn mathematics. I really watched the sky before!" Shen Hongcai said with emotion. After he was suspended these days, he devoted himself to recalculating the famous works of the sages with Tianzhu numbers. As a result, he found that the previous problems are now solved.


    "What the master said is very true. Students believe that all the knowledge in a hundred schools is just the words of one family. Only arithmetic has existed forever since the birth of mankind. People''s daily use is inseparable from him, and national finance is inseparable from him. Arithmetic has already penetrated all aspects of mankind. Every progress of mankind is strongly promoted by arithmetic. However, such an important arithmetic has not been achieved In their rightful place, many private schools even teach only four books and five classics without mentioning mathematics, resulting in a group of deformed talents.


    "Of course, this is related to the environment, and a large part of the reason is that mathematics is too obscure and difficult to understand. Now Tianzhu figures have greatly simplified the calculation method, which is the opportunity for the great development of mathematics. Merton begged the master to compile a simple and easy to learn, from shallow to deep mathematics teaching book, so that mathematics can be carried forward."


    Morton''s words shook Shen Hongcai''s mind. This is a change in mathematics today. If this textbook can be spread to all academies and private schools in the Tang Dynasty, mathematics can really flourish together.


    "Well, you can''t break or stand. Since the previous arithmetic is no longer suitable for promotion, I risked the world''s condemnation and compiled a new arithmetic book to promote it. Since the new arithmetic uses Tianzhu numbers, I decided to call it mathematics in order to distinguish it from the previous arithmetic." Shen Hongcai said excitedly.


    Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect that he inadvertently let mathematics be born on the land of China hundreds of years in advance.

 Chapter 103

    Mo San''s dilemma.


    Merton believes that a large part of the reason why arithmetic did not spread widely in the Tang Dynasty is that it is obscure and difficult to understand. For example, Zuchongzhi''s conjugation is one of the representatives.


    ok


    Even the professor''s master doesn''t necessarily understand how to teach students the knowledge of mathematics, so the loss of conjugation has become a matter of course.


    In order to avoid repeating the mistakes, Merton gave Shen Hongcai the idea of simply compiling mathematics textbooks by grade. This step-by-step method of teaching mathematics has been verified by later generations for a hundred years. It has been proved that this is indeed the most suitable method for popularizing mathematics.


    "Mohist has its own printing house! As long as the master can compile it, it can be compiled and published immediately. Mohist village will be the first place to use new arithmetic." Merton patted his chest and promised.


    With a goal, Shen Hongcai swept away his previous decadence and left with high morale.


    In this way, in the next few days, Merton honestly installed the students in the Imperial College, and the whole imperial college soon became calm as if there had never been a dispute over the number of Tianzhu.


    Another ten day recess.


    Spring returns to the earth and everything recovers. The big willows in the backyard of Mo mansion have already taken out tender buds, hanging down like ten thousand silk tapers. The breeze blows, and the emerald willows are very comfortable.


    Merton once again lay down under Cuiliu and pretended to be a dead dog, but this time he didn''t lie there. The injury on his ass had already healed, but lay there comfortably. The recliner tailor made by Lao Zhang''s head for Merton was extremely decent and supported Merton''s body in an all-round way, so that he didn''t have to work hard.


    The warm sun shines on Merton, which makes people want to sleep. I''m afraid Merton would have gone to sleep if there wasn''t a strange noise from time to time.


    "Mo San!" Merton shouted angrily.


    Mo San, who wandered in the backyard more than ten times, hurried over, bowed and said, "Hello, young master!"


    "What''s the matter? Listen to Ziyi. You''ve been busy with your printing house. Why do you have time to come over!" Merton asked with a touch of purple behind his eyes.


    Obviously, when Mo San came, purple clothes ran behind him.


    At the end of the ink exhibition, Merton took Mo San out of the ink house independently. Mo San is a masterpiece of his majesty. He has a pair of skillful hands and excellent carving skills. Moreover, many of his Majesty''s silver rewards were given to Mo San as start-up funds, so he didn''t take any more measures. In addition, recently, there have been many things in Merton, so he ignored Mo San.


    "There is something wrong with the printing house? Please give me some advice!" Mo San said with a red face.


    "Something''s wrong?" Merton looked at Mo San suspiciously. It''s reasonable to say that Mo San has a title, technology and capital. The printing house should not encounter any trouble!


    "There is no book to print!" Mo San stammered out the whole thing, and Merton understood the principle.


    It turned out that Mo Sany was ambitious at the beginning and wanted to do a big job. It was found that the technology of engraving printing soon spread in Chang''an city. In this era, there was no intellectual property protection. Many ministers in the Court saw the business opportunities of engraving and printing books. Many ministers took the lead, and it was not difficult to find carpenters with engraving technology. In just a few months, Chang''an City opened more than a dozen printing houses, and the price of books suddenly tripled.


    "These dignified guys?" Merton gritted his teeth. The technology of engraving and printing is just a kind of window paper, which can be broken when stabbed.


    "But they didn''t take advantage. Now the Imperial College has revised all kinds of Confucian classics and added punctuation marks. Coupled with the signboard of the Imperial College, it is very popular. There is a large backlog of major printing houses in Chang''an city." Mo San said with lingering fear.


    Merton was surprised. He thought that the Imperial College was full of old-fashioned corrupt scholars. He didn''t expect to have such a mind. The move of the Imperial College was very similar to a famous school version of later generations'' teaching materials. As long as the name of the Imperial College was there, he didn''t worry that the printed books couldn''t be sold, and it was extremely authoritative.


    "You printed a lot, too?" asked Merton.


    Mo San shook his head and suddenly said in a high voice, "young master, we are Mohist children. How can we print Confucian classics?"


    Merton wanted to persuade Mo San as a businessman not to care about these opinions, but he stopped persuading when he thought that the Confucian classics printed in Chang''an city had been flooded.


    After Mo San''s narration, Merton finally understood the plight of the publishing house. Mo San specially printed Mo Jing and Dao Jing, but did not sell a few copies. His business was extremely miserable. Now the biggest business of Mo San is to print various medical contracts of Banghua Laomo hospital, otherwise it would have closed down.


    Merton looked at Mo San sympathetically. The boy was really unlucky. Empty has a skill, but there is no place to use it.


    Merton has a math textbook business for Shen Hongcai, but it doesn''t know how long it will take until Shen Hongcai compiles it. Merton thinks about it and still doesn''t tell Mo San. It''s better to give him a surprise at that time.


    "What on earth do you think?" Merton asked with an elegant.


    He saw that Mo San had been trying to stop talking. Obviously, he had some ideas of his own.


    "I want to..." Mo San said, looking involuntarily at the flowers.


    "Come here!" Merton said angrily.


    The purple dress was not torn down at all. Ashamed, he ran over excitedly and said, "young master, Mo San wants to print my painting!"


    "Your painting?"


    Merton''s contemptuous eyes severely hurt Ziyi''s self-esteem. Ziyi tooted her mouth and took out a large stack of rice paper from behind?


    "Violent man?"


    Merton looked at the matchmakers and some exaggerated lines in front of him in surprise. It has to be said that in future generations, under the existing conditions, extremely simple lines are the most suitable for printing.


    If you take some sketches or landscape paintings, it''s estimated that no matter how skillful the carver is, it can''t be carved. This is not laser scanning in later generations.


    Merton narrowed his eyes and looked at Mo San and Ziyi. He had to say that their cooperation was indeed seamless. Merton can imagine that in this era of extremely lack of entertainment, after the emergence of such books with pictures and words, Merton can imagine how much sensation it will cause.


    "Young master? What do you think?" Ziyi asked eagerly.


    "Interesting!" Merton smiled. "What else?"


    "Besides that?" Ziyi was a little silly. She didn''t think so much. As long as her paintings can be printed, everything else doesn''t matter.


    "Young master, I think so. Now the children of Mojia village walk through Guanzhong and can bring back a lot of news. If you can sort out these news and publish them, plus the paintings in purple, I believe there must be a way out," said Mo San.


    This idea has been in his mind for a long time. Since printing traditional books has no advantage, he found another way and opened a new road.


    Merton looked at Mo San in surprise. He didn''t expect that Mo San''s mind was so advanced that he vaguely touched the concept of future newspapers.


    "Oh, it takes three days for Guanzhong to come back and forth, and some news needs careful verification. I''m going to print one volume in half a month, which can not only ensure the timeliness of information, but also ensure the accuracy of information." Mo San talked with confidence.


    "Semimonthly!" Murton nodded in his heart.


    In this era of extremely slow news transmission, half a month is indeed the most appropriate way.

 Chapter 104

    "What, let me draw the portrait of meritorious officials in Lingyan Pavilion!" Merton looked at the uninvited Li Chengqian in shock.


    Merton didn''t expect Li Shimin to act so quickly. It was only a few days later that he immediately got a heated discussion in the great court. However, these courtiers were also dignified figures. Although they knew that it was good for them, they were embarrassed to say that they wanted fame and declined one after another.


    However, as soon as Merton''s poems were published, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty immediately realized the great influence of Ling Yange to inspire future generations, which can not only bring great fame to themselves, but also inspire future generations. Such a thing of the best of both worlds was accepted by important officials.


    When it was determined to be the candidate for the portrait of the ministers, Yan Liben, who was unanimously elected by the people, resolutely declined, but recommended Merton as the painter.


    "Of course, it''s you who wrote the poem. Now Chang''an city is the most like you, not who you are." Li Chengqian looked at you very much and hated Merton only gritting his teeth. This time he really moved a stone and hit his foot. He was cheap. He even found himself such a trouble.


    You know, Lingyan Pavilion can have twenty-four heroes. It takes nearly a month to draw one a day.


    "Brother Mo, don''t worry. Lingyan Pavilion has just been proposed and approved. It can be completed in at least one year. Brother Mo has enough time," said Li Chengqian.


    Merton was relieved. At least there was plenty of time.


    "Why don''t you take Wu Gou and collect the fifty states in Guanshan? Brother Mo''s poems are heroic and generous, which is really a model for men of our generation." a sissy voice tried to pretend to be heroic and careless, arched hands and hugged boxing.


    "Who is this?"


    Merton looked at the sissy who had been silent behind Li Chengqian. No, it was sissy at all. It had a full smell of rouge powder and deliberately pretended to be heroic.


    Li Chengqian''s eyes twinkled, removed Merton''s eyes and said, "ha ha, I forgot to introduce. This is the younger brother of the palace, Li Zhi. It''s a pity that he didn''t meet brother Mo in Chongwen pavilion the day before yesterday. I''m here today."


    "Xiao Wang and Li Zhi pay a visit to brother mo." Li Zhi said deliberately in a thick voice.


    "Easy to say, easy to say." Merton was confused and could only go on.


    "Morton, my brother usually likes Danqing very much. I heard that brother Mo Danqing is unique, so I came here for advice." Li Chengqian explained.


    "Please ask brother Mo for advice!" Li Zhi took out two rice paper and handed it to Merton.


    Merton picked it up and saw a portrait of Li Shimin embracing Princess Jinyang. Due to the unskilled matching between light and shade, the portrait is only three or four points similar, but it is very rare for new scholars.


    As for the other one, Merton''s cartoon avatar for Li Chengqian is a vivid imitation.


    Li Chengqian looked at his cartoon avatar. He was very embarrassed. He glared at Merton and said, "although my brother''s painting is mischievous, it''s also enthusiastic. You can''t help teaching!"


    Merton looked at Li Chengqian and became angry. He wisely stopped teasing him. Instead, he looked at the sissy Li Zhi in front of him with a headache. It should not be said that it was Li Zhi disguised as a man. He was so close to Li Chengqian. He was two or three years younger than Li Chengqian. There was only one possibility. In front of him was Li Lizhong, Li Chengqian''s sister Changle princess.


    This is the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. Her status is respected. Merton found that he always provoked some people he couldn''t afford.


    "Purple!" Merton shouted to the inner room.


    After a long time, the girl came out in purple with hair and hair. She was possessed by the devil in order to draw violent man.


    "What''s the matter, young master?" Ziyi said vaguely.


    "Take Prince Li Zhi to your studio and explain the painting skills I taught you to Prince Li." Merton arranged that in order to cultivate purple clothes, Merton spared no effort to teach his painting skills. In addition, Merton really couldn''t provoke Li Shimin. If he let him know that he taught his daughter painting, he would not live tomorrow.


    Ziyi was confused. Looking at Li Zhi in men''s watch and women''s clothes, she couldn''t help brightening her eyes.


    "This sister is so beautiful!"


    Li Lizhi immediately blushed and said in a thick voice again, "the girl is wrong. My little brother is a man."


    It is estimated that this girl is the first time for a woman to dress up as a man. She has no experience at all. Anyone can tear it down at a glance, but he thinks his dress is seamless and speaks men''s words in a thick voice.


    Ziyi silently patted her forehead and whispered a few times in front of Li Lizhi.


    Li Lizhen quickly looked down at her large chest and touched her Adam''s apple. Her face suddenly turned red.


    "Hum!" Li Lizhi glared at Li Chengqian and Merton, and proudly led Ziyi away.


    "It''s none of my business?" Merton looked puzzled. He really suffered a disaster for no reason.


    "Sister she is capricious. Please forgive me, brother mo." Li Chengqian said bitterly.


    "Now you can give me an explanation!" privately took a princess disguised as a man to the Mo mansion. If it was spread out, Merton would be overwhelmed.


    "The father wanted to fix a marriage for her sister. She didn''t want to. She was in a bad mood. She usually loved Danqing. Especially after seeing brother Mo''s paintings for her father and Jinyang, she couldn''t put it down. In order to let her relieve her depression, the palace came to the Mo house." Li Chengqian explained.


    "Engagement, grandson Chong?" asked Merton.


    "Brother Mo, how do you know?" Li Chengqian said in surprise! It is reasonable to say that this matter is still under discussion, and Princess Changle is still angry and has not been made public at all.


    Merton said in his heart, how could I not know? I also know that your sister was very unhappy when she married her eldest son. She died at the age of 23.


    This is a tragedy! Merton knew in his heart that this was a political marriage between Li Shimin and his eldest sun Wuji, and did not consider Li Lizhi''s feelings at all. Whether to save the whole elf like woman, Merton fell into the battle between heaven and man. After a long time, conscience prevailed.


    "Do you feel that the blood relationship between Princess Changle and Li Lizhi is too close?" Merton asked carefully.


    "I know. In terms of seniority, Chang sun Chong is my cousin. Isn''t that a kiss on the side?" said Li Chengqian with a look of indifference.


    Empress Chang sun and sun Wuji are close brothers and sisters, while Li Lizhi and sun Chong are cousins. "


    "Kiss more?" Merton remembered that there was such a saying in ancient times.


    Merton thought about it and said carefully, "Your Highness, did you know why there are so many singles in Mojia village? Poverty is only one aspect of Mojia village. More importantly, Mojia village strictly forbids the marriage of close relatives of direct and collateral generations."


    "Three lineal generations, three collateral generations!" of course, Li Chengqian knows what this means. Li Lizhi and Chang sun Chong are blood relatives of three collateral generations.


    "What''s the problem?" asked Licheng in a trembling voice. He knows the situation of Mojia village. There are many singles in the village, but Mojia village, which is so eager to reproduce, strictly forbids the marriage of close relatives.


    "Children born to close relatives have a high probability of mental retardation, cerebral palsy and various genetic diseases," Merton said word by word.


    In later generations, there was even an extremely large and prominent royal family, which cut off men because of the marriage of close relatives, and the dynasty collapsed.

 Chapter 105

    "How could it be?" Li Chengqian was shocked.


    He couldn''t believe that this was the truth. If so, wouldn''t it be the greatest human relations tragedy to practice the principle of "kiss on kiss" among families for thousands of years.


    "It''s not difficult to find out. I''m afraid there are many such families in Chang''an city. Your royal highness will know how many mentally retarded and early dead children there are in these close relatives," Morton said. This kind of thing is not difficult for Li Chengqian to verify.


    However, this is not the whole nightmare. Merton looked at Li Chengqian and said solemnly, "according to my observation, Princess Changle is now less than 14 years old!"


    "What''s the matter? I won''t be 14 years old in three months?" said Li Chengqian with red eyes.


    "What''s the matter? Hum! There are countless young women who have died of dystocia." Merton said in a trembling voice. At the age of 14, his body has not grown. If the fetus is too large, dystocia is certain. The light fetus dies, and the heavy one has two lives. Thinking of those innocent lives disappearing, but there was nothing he could do, Merton felt a cramp in his heart.


    "Ah!"


    Chengqian suddenly felt cold. The two most cruel human relations tragedies were occupied by his poor sister.


    "Yes! What Merton said is true!" the voice of Hua Lao''s vicissitudes came from outside the door.


    Li Chengqian came this time because of his foot disease, so he informed Hua Lao early. However, for the sake of Li Chengqian''s safety, the two put the inspection place in Mo''s house.


    "Hua Lao!"


    "Doctor Hua!"


    Merton and Li Chengqian got up and said.


    "I have practiced medicine for many years. I have counted 1300 families married by close relatives, including more than 800 premature children, 120 people with intellectual disabilities, 52 people with physical disabilities, more than 30% of maternal dystocia under the age of 15, 15% of fetal deaths and half of one corpse and two lives."


    Mr. Hua trembled every time he reported a number. When he arrived in Mojia village, he strongly advocated banning close relatives and late marriages in Mojia village, which is also one of the reasons why there are many singles in Mojia village.


    "The harm of consanguineous marriage is so great?"


    Li Chengqian was in a cold sweat. He didn''t think of a thing that seemed to be happy and pushed his sister into an invisible abyss.


    He may still be skeptical about Merton''s words, but he has witnessed and is sure of Hua Lao''s medical skills.


    For a moment, the three fell into a deep silence.


    "Hee hee! What''s wrong with the you?" a silver bell like laughter came. Princess Changle no longer had to pretend to have a thick voice, but recovered her normal voice, which was very nice.


    However, such a moving voice became more and more sad in Li Chengqian''s ears. Li Chengqian squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "how''s painting? Is it difficult?"


    "It''s not difficult at all. I''m a genius in painting, and the painting in purple is interesting!" Princess Changle smiled Yanyan and said proudly. Princess Changle was in the deep palace. She was boring. She had seen such strange things as violence and was deeply attracted at the moment.


    "That''s not true. You''re my sister!" Li Chengqian disguised.


    "That''s right. Don''t be sad, brother Prince. I believe your feet can be cured." Princess Changle comforted softly. She thought that Li Chengqian''s depression was due to his foot problem.


    "Well, it will be cured," Li Chengqian said with a tearful smile.


    "Yes, if you can''t cure it, let your father beat this guy hard!" Princess Changle turned her head to Merton and threatened with a small fist.


    "Er, ER!" Merton was speechless. How could he really sit at home and have an unexpected disaster.


    "Don''t worry, princess? The prince''s foot disease is recovering and will be cured in time." old Hua looked at Princess Changle with pity. She was really a miserable girl.


    "Thank you very much, elder brother. Please!" Changle said politely.


    Merton looked at the ceiling speechless. Well, he was a bad man. He was just trying to save her.


    "Goodbye to Ziyi! I''ll play with you next time!" Princess Changle waved to Ziyi reluctantly.


    "We must remember that we have to draw together." the girl in purple turned out to be reluctant to give up.


    It has to be said that girls'' friendship is too easy to establish. After a short meeting in purple, they have become good friends with Princess Changle.


    Watching Li Chengqian and Princess Changle leave, old Hua sighed, "Royal?"


    Merton nodded heavily.


    The majestic imperial palace is more and more advanced, and Li Chengqian''s mood is more and more serious. The man born in the royal family bears the sword and shadow of seizing the legitimate line, and the Royal woman can never escape the two word marriage.


    In order to consolidate the supreme position, the royal family can sacrifice everything. How can a woman resist.


    "See the queen mother!"


    In the legislative palace, empress Chang sun looked at Princess Changle and Li Chengqian with a happy face. At this time, Princess Changle had restored her daughter''s dress. The water Blue Palace dress was particularly beautiful with a tall figure.


    "Changle, come here and have a look at the maid picture of Lord Yan you asked for from your cousin. This is the latest painting of Lord Yan integrating new painting skills. You must like it." empress changsun smiled at Princess Changle while greeting Li Chengqian to sit down.


    "Cousin!"


    Hearing these two words, Li Chengqian couldn''t help feeling a chill. Looking at the empress Chang sun, who was still immersed in the joy of kissing, Li Chengqian opened his mouth several times, but couldn''t say anything.


    Looking at Changle being dragged by Empress Chang sun to see Yan Liben''s new painting, it is true that the woman in the painting is lifelike and extremely lifelike. It is a rare masterpiece.


    If before, Princess Changle would be very happy, but at this moment, she is not interested in looking at this painting. In her opinion, these paintings are not as fresh as the young characters in purple.


    "Drag first!"


    At this time, an almost inaudible voice sounded in her ear. Li Lizhi turned in surprise and looked at Li Chengqian, who was solemnly saying goodbye to the eldest grandson queen.


    If Li Chengqian hadn''t been winking at her secretly, she could hardly believe that he was what his normally serious brother said.


    "Clever, your feet are bad. Go and have a rest quickly!" the empress Chang sun waved and said.


    "Come on, Lizzy, we''re looking at the Shu Brocade that your cousin Chong gave you. It''s a good cloth. It''s rare to see in ordinary times." the empress changsun took Princess Changle''s hand and helped changsun Chong say good words.


    "Well, that''s good! But, mother, I was a little tired after going out for a day today, so I left first." Princess Changle refused.


    "Well, go and have a rest first! In two days, I''ll ask you to rush your cousin to accompany you to visit Xiyuan. The flowers there are blooming. You must like it." empress Chang Sun said.


    "Let''s talk about it then!" Princess Changle fled.

 Chapter 106

    In the East Palace, Li Chengqian sat there with a gloomy face, struggling to the utmost in his heart.


    He knows the character of his father and his mother very well. It seems that this marriage is still consulting Princess Changle. In fact, it is irreversible. It is a foregone conclusion that Princess Changle will marry Chang sun Chong.


    If you intervene rashly and only rely on one side of your words, I''m afraid Li Shimin''s character can only backfire.


    "Someone!" Li Chengqian shouted.


    "Prince, your highness!" a black eunuch quietly appeared behind Li Chengqian.


    "Sister Changle is a little indifferent to the kindness of her father, emperor and mother. You should immediately send someone to investigate the cases of marriage in Chang''an city. The Palace should convince Changle with facts."


    "Yes!" said the eunuch in black in a quiet voice.


    Just as the eunuch in black was about to disappear, Li Chengqian suddenly said, "focus on the offspring of these close relatives. Whether they are living children or dead, they are recorded in detail. After the investigation, they must be kept secret. The palace wants to surprise the father and Emperor."


    As the crown prince of the East Palace, Li Chengqian has his own strength, which can be used by him. However, he is still cautious. After all, this involves his sister''s life. If it is exposed in advance, it may fall short of success.


    "By the way, plus the fertility of a 14-year-old woman''s marriage," Li Chengqian added as if inadvertently.


    The eunuch in black nodded silently and soon disappeared.


    The East Palace is very powerful. Even if Li Chengqian didn''t use his obvious power, shocking news came one by one.


    "A mentally retarded child!"


    "Ten intellectual disabilities!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Only 300 families married by close relatives were investigated, and more than 50 close relatives had mentally retarded children, and hundreds died early. The greater tragedy was that one family had seven children in succession, two died early and five mentally retarded. Finally, the couple went crazy together with their children, and there were countless cases of difficult childbirth of young women.


    Chengqian''s hands were green and his heart was cold. Although he had believed what Merton and Hua Lao said and had enough psychological preparation, he still had angina pectoris when a series of shocking figures appeared in front of him.


    This is just the result of the two-day investigation in Chang''an city. There are so many. What about the whole Guanzhong area? How many are there even in the whole Tang Dynasty?


    This is a human relationship tragedy caused by human ignorance. It''s ironic to be complacent and say it''s kiss on kiss.


    Li Chengqian suddenly remembered what Merton once said. Everything in the world can deceive you, but only numbers can''t. Now Li Chengqian really realizes the cruelty of this sentence, and his sister is about to become one of these cold figures.


    "This matter must be kept secret and can''t be spread out." Li Chengqian looked at the black Eunuch in cold sweat.


    "Yes, your highness!" the eunuch in black panicked.


    At the beginning of his investigation, Li Chengqian asked him to keep it a secret. He had a hunch that the job was not simple, but he didn''t expect it to be such a big event.


    It is widely said that Chang sun Chong and Princess Changle have made a good marriage inside and outside the heavenly palace, and the prince made himself investigate so shocking that one is his highness and the other is the most powerful person in the dynasty, which can easily crush him.


    Li Chengqian looked at the Tai Chi hall, stood up several times and sat down dejectedly. This matter is not as simple as it seems. It involves Li Shimin''s policy of closing down all officials and his mother''s plan for a hundred years later.


    If he forcibly pierces this matter, he can destroy the marriage, but it will disgrace his father and uncle, and may even go to the other extreme.


    No, even if it''s just in case, he can''t take risks with Changle. After thinking about it, Li Chengqian still thinks that it''s necessary to tie the bell to solve the problem. Since mojiazi put forward this problem, maybe mojiazi can also solve it.


    Thinking of this, Li Chengqian quickly stood up and wanted to find Merton. Then he sat down slowly. He suddenly remembered that Merton would come to draw a portrait of Lingyan Pavilion with his father at this time tomorrow. It would not be too late to find it at that time.


    "Sit down!"


    "Keep your waist straight!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "OK!"


    In the side room of Tai Chi hall, Merton commanded Li Shimin to pose.


    Unlike the last Mohist painting of Li Shimin and Princess Jinyang, this time Merton painted Li Shimin more formally and prepared to draw a huge bust similar to the great men of later generations. Easy to hang Lingyan Pavilion.


    Merton paints very carefully, but Li Er is not a qualified model. Every time Merton corrects his posture, he always maintains it for less than a quarter of an hour.


    ok Who called you the emperor, you cow, you willful. Merton accepted his fate and began to immerse himself in painting and repair the deviation caused by Li Shimin''s chaos bit by bit.


    "I heard that Changle went out of the palace to learn painting from you?" Li Shimin suddenly said.


    Merton shook his hand and almost didn''t destroy the portrait.


    "Changle?" Morton''s face was just confused. "There''s no Changle. Instead, a little prince named Li Zhi came to the Mo house. The minister asked the maid Ziyi to teach him some moves."


    "Hmm! A talented boy draws very well!" Merton flattered, secretly praising his wit. Which parents don''t want their children to be praised.


    "Oh! You say it''s Li Zhi! It''s him. He really likes painting." Li Shimin suddenly remembered that yes, and never mentioned Changle again.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief and was lucky to fool the past. However, seeing that Li Shimin loved Princess Jinyang so much, if he caught him, he would have to peel off his skin if he didn''t die.


    However, thinking that Princess Changle was about to get married, Merton couldn''t help feeling a little heavy. He didn''t know how Li Chengqian was going or whether he could save the elf like girl.


    Merton worked for nearly an hour and finally finished the portrait.


    "Your Majesty, please look!" Merton took the painting from his simple drawing board and handed it to Li Shimin. The drawing board was a surprise. Merton just mentioned it casually. Unexpectedly, Lao Zhang''s head was made so quickly. He sent it together with a pencil. With handy tools, Merton''s painting level was further high.


    "Not bad!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction as he looked at his real bust.


    "It seems that Lord Yan is right! You are the best at painting portraits." Li Shimin said with satisfaction.


    Well, Merton was speechless to the sky. He felt that he had been busy this day. Unexpectedly, he got the evaluation that the painting was very similar to this.


    "This is art!" Merton curled his lips and found himself a tall and fashionable word.

 Chapter 107

    "Hurry up!"


    As soon as Merton left the Tai Chi hall, he was stopped by Li Chengqian, who had been waiting for a long time. He hurriedly took Merton to the east palace.


    "Slow down, slow down, you''re easy to be misunderstood. Why do you think we''re dripping?" Merton was dragged staggering and dissatisfied.


    "Fuck off!"


    Chengqian was so angry that his good upbringing was destroyed. He was already burning with anxiety. Merton was still in the mood to make fun of himself.


    East Palace, Prince''s study.


    "Touch!"


    Chengqian slapped a pile of rice paper in front of Merton. Rice paper is snow-white and brand-new. It is obviously the latest writing.


    "You see, it''s careless!"


    Li Chengqian''s face was ferocious and frightening.


    Merton didn''t say a word, but he kept turning. The more he looked, the heavier his face became.


    Different from the cold figures of HuaLao, and Li Chengqian''s statistics are particularly detailed, but they also describe the address and family relationship of their close relatives one by one.


    However, the more so, the more cruel it feels. This is not one or two families, but tens of thousands of families.


    "Merton, what do you say? I don''t want my sister to follow this tragic Road," said Li Chengqian.


    "Then what are you waiting for? You have evidence to check! Can''t you just play it directly?" Merton looked at Li Chengqian strangely and said.


    "You don''t know how wide this matter is involved! According to my statistics, this is just an ordinary family in Chang''an area, which has been so serious. It can be seen that this matter in the whole Tang Dynasty is more serious. If this palace comes forward, I''m afraid it will be subject to fierce turbulence." Li Chengqian explained to Merton in a low voice.


    Merton thought it was true that even the emperor liked to kiss each other, not to mention other people, and the position of Prince Li Chengqian was too sensitive.


    "In addition to the best face of the father emperor, as far as I know, the father emperor has personally agreed to this matter. If the palace rashly intervenes, it will lose the face of the father emperor and his uncle, and I''m afraid it will have a negative effect."


    Chang sun Chong has sent gifts to the palace. Without Li Shimin''s acquiescence, it is impossible. This is also Li Chengqian''s concern.


    "What do you say?" Merton asked. Do you want to save your sister or take risks.


    "Isn''t that why he came to you?" Li Chengqian looked at Merton with hopeful eyes.


    "No!"


    Merton almost didn''t jump! Are you kidding? You''re afraid of Li Shimin. You think I''m not afraid!


    "Merton, that''s my sister! I don''t want to take a risk to let her jump into the fire pit." Li Chengqian said firmly.


    Merton opened his mouth and looked at Li Chengqian''s firm face. He couldn''t say anything about his refusal. And he also saw that ELF like woman and knew her tragic life. If he was indifferent, he could only let the tragedy happen again.


    "OK! But this matter should be considered in the long run." Merton''s appointed nodded, who made his heart too soft.


    After thinking for a long time, they couldn''t help scratching their heads. This matter is really difficult. If they want to save Princess Changle, they have to take care of Li Er''s face, but there is no such way to have the best of both worlds.


    "Why don''t we make this big," Morton said with a cross heart.


    Chengqian''s heart trembled. He knew it was the result. As soon as Merton did something, it must be a sensation all over the city.


    But for the sake of Changle, Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and said, "just tell me what to do. I''ll take care of it when something happens."


    "The first step, Prince, you let Princess Changle clearly refuse Chang sun Chong. The more firm the attitude is, the better, and the more people know, the better. In this way, after we broke the news, they can also have a step down." Merton said, this is also the way of no way. As long as the parties are unwilling, there can be room for a round turn in this matter.


    Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and said, "OK, I''ll do it."


    Changle has always been reluctant, but her character is soft and there is no clear refusal. If she gave her a hint, it would be a success.


    "Mojia village plans to issue a semimonthly magazine recording all kinds of news in Guanzhong area. The first issue has begun to be prepared. If we print these results to the most prominent first item, it will release the whole Guanzhong area at that time, creating an established fact that no one can change." Merton waved heavily. This time, he is not only to help Li Chengqian save Princess Changle, We should also change this bad habit that has been passed on for thousands of years.


    Chengqian''s eyes lit up with pride. In this way, it was spread from the people to the court, and no one would link it to Changle''s marriage.


    "However, the person who counts the marriage of close relatives must be neutral and can not arouse suspicion," Merton said with worry.


    If you directly publish the statistical data of Li Chengqian, the fool also knows to guess Li Chengqian''s purpose.


    "Hua Lao!"


    "Hua Lao!"


    They said in unison at the same time.


    "Yes, it''s HuaLao. HuaLao itself is a doctor, and he has made statistics in this regard before, and strictly abides by HuaLao''s concept of opposing next of kin marriage in Mojia village. If HuaLao comes forward, no one will think that we are for Changle." Li Chengqian said excitedly.


    Merton nodded. Hua Lao has been actively advocating the prohibition of close relatives'' marriage. If Hua Lao is allowed to publish his ideas in the semimonthly magazine, he will certainly be willing to.


    "OK! You''re in charge of Changle and I''m in charge of Hua Lao. Let''s do both!" Merton said proudly.


    "Thank you, Merton!" said Chengqian sincerely. He knew that this time it seemed like a two pronged approach. In fact, Chengqian was the safest, but Merton pushed Mo San and Hua Lao to the front desk.


    Merton''s body left, waved from behind, and left without looking back.


    Just after Merton left the east palace. A big news broke out in the palace.


    The gentle Princess Changle returned all the gifts sent by her future son-in-law changsun Chong, and the most luxurious marriage in the Tang Dynasty is likely to come to an end.


    This incident immediately caused the shock of Li Shimin and empress changsun. They came to persuade them one after another, but Princess Changle was extremely resolute and directly closed the door.


    In the Mo mansion,


    Merton tells the pros and cons of this one by one to Mo San and Hua Lao.


    "Don''t worry, young master. It''s my lifelong wish to abolish next of kin marriage. I''m duty bound this time." old Hua said firmly. This is the best opportunity for Chinese people. If we really let Changle and changsun Chong get married, I''m afraid this matter can only be annihilated over time, and no one dares to mention it.


    As for Mo San, there is no opinion. This is a sensational news that can make his semimonthly magazine popular. He can''t refuse it anyway.

 Chapter 108

    March 1st.


    On this day, Mo San got up very early and waited early in Mo Fu, because today is the release day of Mo San''s new career semimonthly.


    "Don''t worry! I''ve read the ink magazine. There''s no problem. The response must be good." Merton was disturbed by Qingmeng and got up angry, but looking at the restless Mo San, he had to make a sound of comfort.


    Ink magazine is the name of Merton for semimonthly magazine. Since it is impossible to avoid the brand of Mohism, Merton simply named it mo magazine, which can also improve the popularity of this new thing. After all, after the ink technology exhibition, Qu Yuanli and artificially hatched chickens, ducks and geese spread all over Guanzhong. The popularity of Mohism has greatly improved in Guanzhong. Using the name of Ink magazine can greatly enhance the impression of the audience.


    "Yes, isn''t there my violent man? It can attract a lot of people in such a way." purple clothes farted aside.


    Thinking of the young master''s attention and the painting in purple, Mo San was a little calm, but he still looked worried about gain and loss. After all, it was his painstaking efforts. He didn''t want to go back to living on the medical contract of the printing ink hospital.


    With the sun rising slowly, the whole Chang''an City became noisy gradually. What is different from the past is that there is a new Hawking sound in these noises.


    "If a scholar doesn''t go out, he will know the world news! As long as a penny, you can know the world news like a scholar."


    "A penny, an ink magazine! I have all the information in Guanzhong."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Young people with stacks of ink magazines in their hands hawk along the streets at busy streets. These people are young people in Mojia village. After several months of compulsory education, these young people may write some articles, but at least they can read and read. It''s just right to sell newspapers.


    "Ink journal?"


    A middle-aged man dressed up as a merchant stopped and looked at the ink magazine in the hands of the youth of Mojia village.


    "Sir, would you like to have a copy of Ink magazine? It''s all the latest news in Guanzhong area. One copy is only a penny." the young people who can choose to sell ink magazines are very clever. They see some intention of middle-aged merchants and persuade them.


    A penny is the price set by Merton for ink magazines. Due to the scarcity of information in this period, each ink magazine only has a 16 Kai paper.


    Although it is a semi monthly magazine, its internal capacity is only the content of a newspaper in future generations. Merton thought that in the future, with the increase of sources of information, he would gradually build ink magazines into daily newspapers, so the price was a penny.


    And for the people of Chang''an City, a penny is not much, that is, the money for a breakfast, which is just suitable for the promotion of Ink magazine.


    "A penny?"


    The middle-aged merchants couldn''t help but be a little excited. What they care about most is information. They can get the news of the whole Guanzhong area for a penny. This price is very cost-effective.


    "Give me a copy!" the middle-aged merchant took out a Wen one by one and handed it to the young man. He took over an ink magazine.


    When the middle-aged merchant looked at the ink magazine, he found that it described in detail the information around Guanzhong, some of which he had heard, more of which he had never heard, and even he had seen a lot of business opportunities on it.


    "Sir, if you think this ink magazine is useful, you can choose to renew it. If you subscribe for more than half a year, Mojia village will send the ink magazine to the door in person." the youth of Mojia village kindly reminded.


    However, the middle-aged merchants seem to have never heard of it. They stare at the front page headline of the ink magazine with their eyes fixed on it!


    "A kiss is not a kiss!" the middle-aged merchant trembled and turned pale.


    He looked at a series of terrible figures in the ink magazine, and his body was cold. He thought of his silly son and the tears of the middle-aged merchant.


    He has a deep understanding of this matter. He himself is the victim of extra intimacy. He and his cousin have three children, two of whom have died prematurely and one of whom is mentally retarded.


    "If this ink publication had been published 20 years earlier!" the middle-aged merchant clenched his teeth and felt infinite regret.


    In the pan restaurant.


    In order to attract business, the restaurant owner specially bought more than ten ink magazines and put one on each table.


    "A kiss on top of a kiss is not necessarily a kiss! It''s just a lie to confuse the public!"


    An old man in royal clothes said angrily with an ink magazine. His daughter had just been engaged, and she was also engaged, so he immediately blew his hair when he saw the news.


    "I don''t think so. Look at the signature. It''s the name of Chinese miracle doctor." the young scribe at the adjacent table was sharp eyed and saw the author''s name under the headline.


    "Doctor Hua?"


    "Is that the Chinese miracle doctor of Mo hospital? I heard that the Chinese miracle doctor is the ability to regenerate people with broken limbs?" someone in the restaurant exclaimed.


    "Where is the rebirth of a broken limb? It''s just to install a prosthetic limb for the man." the young scribe shook his head.


    "That''s also an unpalatable skill. If it''s a miracle doctor, it''s very possible," said a rich middle-aged man after taking a sip of wine.


    After the large-scale expansion of the Mexican hospital, coupled with the medical skills of the Chinese miracle doctor, it soon became famous in Chang''an city. It can be said that if Chang''an city wants to practice medicine, the first thing to think of is the Mexican hospital.


    Perhaps the level of Tai hospital is higher, but it is aimed at the royal family and dignitaries, and ordinary people can''t enjoy that level of medical treatment. However, the emergence of Mo hospital has a great reputation among ordinary people, which is comparable to the existence of Tai hospital.


    This article, which was signed by Hua Lao, immediately convinced many people.


    "Needless to say, there is an example in my village. Only two children survived in a row, one disabled and one dementia." shopkeeper Pan said with regret. If he had known the news early, there would not have been such a tragedy.


    "Yes, that''s what I remember. There are several fools in the west of the city who seem to kiss each other." soon, everyone said something to me, and there were as many as a dozen cases of problems.


    "Really? How come there is no such phenomenon among some close friends around me." someone retorted.


    The young scholar pointed to the ink magazine and said word by word: "don''t you see what old Hua said? There are chances for this kind of thing. You''re just lucky."


    "Lao Zheng! Don''t worry. Maybe your daughter and your nephew are the exception. Besides, there are only a few accidents." the rich middle-aged man comforted the old man in royal clothes.


    "Hum, even if they are lucky that they don''t have silly children, old Zheng''s little daughter is only 13 years old! Look at old Hua''s statistics, the harm of early marriage is even worse than marriage, and they are not afraid of one corpse and two lives!" the young scribe said coldly.


    Everyone''s mind was attracted by the harm of marriage. They looked down and immediately looked embarrassed. If marriage is difficult to detect, there are many cases of early marriage and dystocia.


    "Maybe Lao Zheng''s daughter is all right?" the rich middle-aged man whispered with a guilty heart.


    "Fart! Even if there is a little risk, I won''t let my daughter take risks." the old man in royal clothes said angrily. The food and wine had been served. I stopped eating and hurried downstairs.


    "No matter what the price, this pro must retreat!" the old man in royal clothes had only one idea in his mind.


    Such a thing happened in many areas of Guanzhong. Those who had been engaged were immediately dissolved. No one dared to mention it again.


    As for ordinary betrothal families, even the date of marriage has been decided one by one until after the age of 16 suggested by Hua Lao.

 Chapter 109

    "Young master!" Mo San panted and ran into Mo mansion.


    Ziyi quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to Mo San. Looking at Mo San finish drinking at one breath, she quickly asked, "brother, how are the ink magazines sold?"


    Mo San waited anxiously in Mo Fu and went directly to the street to see the sales of Mo magazines.


    "Young master, purple clothes, ink magazines... Sold out!" Mo Sany said with a look of ecstasy.


    Chang''an city is the key distribution place of Mo San. Mo San has printed a total of 5000 weekly magazines and distributed them to the whole Guanzhong area. Chang''an City alone has distributed 2000 goods. I didn''t expect to sell out in one day.


    "Great!" Ziyi jumped with joy.


    Merton looked calm and had a hunch about this phenomenon. The content of Ink magazine was hot, the news was novel, and there was a new style of purple clothes. It''s strange if it''s not hot.


    Although the information transmission is blocked in this era, it does not mean that people do not want information.


    Chang''an city is the political and economic center of Chang''an city. Businessmen from south to north, all kinds of restaurants, high-ranking families, all of which are expected to be unable to get the latest news.


    "Seal, hurry to seal!" Ziyi waved her fist and said excitedly.


    It has been sold out on the first day. You know, the sales cycle of a semi monthly magazine is at least about 10 days. According to this posture, the sales volume must rise again.


    "Needless to say, I''ve ordered to print 8000 more copies. As for whether to reprint later, it depends on the sales." Mo San was full of courage and directly printed more than twice.


    The sales volume of 13000 copies may be only a regional tabloid in future generations, but in an era of manual engraving and manual printing, it has been a great achievement.


    "Selling out is not the purpose, but how many renewals." Merton asked. What can support the survival of Ink magazine is not the temporary popularity, but the long-term renewal.


    "Young master, so far, there have been more than 1000 subscriptions in Chang''an City for half a year, and 300 subscriptions a year. But most of them are restaurants and shops," Mo San said.


    Merton nodded. From the experience of later generations, restaurants and shops are indeed the places where information is most needed. They have always been major distributors of newspapers.


    "But there are still some places to pay more attention to. For example, private schools at all levels and yamen can develop below." Merton pointed out Mo San, schools and administrative organs, which are also another major newspaper. Especially in private schools at all levels, the violent man in purple must have sufficient attraction to these bear children.


    Mo San nodded and quickly remembered in his heart that he worshipped the young master''s ability. Every word of Merton would be regarded as a golden rule.


    "Third brother, you''ve made a fortune this time! When will my royalties be paid!" Ziyi stretched out her hand in front of Mo San.


    "Manuscript fee!" Mo Sany said with a wry smile, "purple clothes, if I count the additional printing, it''s a total of 13000 points. Even if all of them are sold out, it''s only 13 yuan. Plus engraving, labor, ink materials, and hiring people to sell ink magazines, it''s estimated that the total is just enough. Where can I have money to pay for your manuscript fee!"


    "Ah!" Ziyi was disappointed. She thought she could earn a lot of money this time. She didn''t expect to have no royalties.


    "Then you won''t raise the price? Yes, if you raise to two Wen, you will have the money to pay me for the press!" Ziyi thought of a good note.


    "Er!" Mo San couldn''t help thinking. It seems a good idea. After all, running at a loss is not a long-term plan, but he still feels insecure. He quickly looks at Merton, who reads leisurely. He pays attention to every ink magazine for a penny.


    "Don''t listen to purple nonsense. I''m sure if you raise the price, you won''t even get the material money back." Merton said.


    "What does the young master say?" Mo San was convinced of Merton.


    "Don''t worry, this issue is mainly to open up the market. In the next issue, I will let all industries in Mojia village advertise in the ink magazine, and the advertising fee alone will make your hand soft," Merton said.


    When the paper media of later generations became popular, which paper media survived by simply buying newspapers. There are a lot of fifty cents and a thick stack of newspapers in future generations. A penny of Datang has much stronger purchasing power than a dollar in future generations.


    "How can I? How can I take money from Mojia village!" Mo San quickly declined.


    Mo San is no stranger to advertising. The starting point of his career is to help Merton print the advertising of ink technology exhibition.


    "Mojia village advertises in ink magazines. Mojia village increases revenue and ink magazines realize profit. At this time, it is a win-win situation. Moreover, if ink magazines enter the formal stage, a large number of merchants will naturally want to advertise in ink magazines, and the advertising in Mojia village will gradually withdraw." Merton explained.


    "Thank you, young master!" Mo San said gratefully.


    Although it is a win-win situation, he can feel Merton''s attention to Ink magazine, and even paste money to support it.


    Merton would be very pleased if he knew the idea of Mo San. Although the status of the Mohist family has been greatly improved through Merton''s operation, it is still vulnerable to some aristocratic families. Mastering the voice of speech is also a self-protection force of the Mohist village.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After all, Merton underestimated Datang''s thirst for information. The investment of 8000 ink magazines in Guanzhong couldn''t stir up much waves. In just two days, 8000 ink magazines were sold out again.


    Even some merchants with foresight bought ink magazines in large quantities when they were about to leave Chang''an, ready to return to their hometown to be a second dealer. After all, the news from the imperial capital still has a market in the local area, which promoted the second popularity of ink magazines.


    "Overprint!"


    "Overprint!"


    After two consecutive additional printing, the upsurge of ink magazines slowly subsided, and the final sales volume reached 25000, while the renewal volume for half a year directly reached 5000. This time, without waiting for the advertising fee of Mojia village to arrive, Mo San generously gave Ziyi a full amount of royalties.


    With the spread of Ink magazine in Guanzhong area, the harm of close relative marriage and early marriage is becoming more and more serious. Once all kinds of shocking examples come, it makes people shudder.


    Previously, people didn''t think about this, but after the dissemination of Ink magazine, the statistics of HuaLao and some examples around us, people have to believe that the harm of close relative marriage and early marriage is a true fact.


    However, in the face of the surging waves among the people, the court was like a dead silence. The civil court was like ice and fire.


    There was also a passionate young official who wanted to write to the court to ask his majesty to order the abolition of close relative marriage and early marriage. Unexpectedly, just after the memorial was written and had time to play, he was stopped by an experienced official.


    The mature official whispered in the young official''s ear. The young official sighed for a while, immediately tore the memorial in his hand to pieces, and handled the government affairs step by step. He never mentioned it again. Joking, one is the emperor and the other is the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty. You make them uncomfortable. Isn''t that looking for death?


    As for the marriage between Princess Changle and Chang sun Chong, no one mentioned it again, as if it had never happened.

 Chapter 110

    In later film and television dramas, there are two different versions of the image of changsun Wuji. One is the loyal minister of Zhenguan period, who supported Li Shimin to the throne and achieved the rule of Zhenguan, ranking first among the meritorious heroes of Lingyan Pavilion.


    The other is the wily old man who tried all means to protect his rights during the Gaozong period. In order to stabilize Li Zhi''s throne, he falsely killed King Li Ke of Wu with the help of Princess Gaoyang''s rebellion. In the later stage, he was defeated by Wu Zetian and hanged himself during exile. Among the meritorious officials of Lingyan Pavilion, he had the highest status and the most miserable end.


    For such an arrogant figure, Merton still felt that he could not be too careful to disturb each other''s planning for the family''s prosperity in the next 100 years, even if the reason was aboveboard and not mixed with selfishness.


    If possible, Merton would like to never meet his eldest son Wuji until he forgets it forever.


    Unfortunately, he can''t, because Merton himself killed a figure who painted for meritorious officials of Lingyan Pavilion. Today is the day when he came to draw for changsun Wuji.


    "See Lord Chang sun!"


    Merton hardened his head and called at the door.


    "Yes!"


    Changsun Wuji lightly responded with a sentence that was still busy. There was no pause due to Merton''s arrival, and he still stayed at the desk to deal with the papers.


    Merton was not angry at the slightest because of his eldest sun Wuji''s neglect. After all, his status was different. He was just a small county uncle and a national son supervisor, and the other party was the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty. If the portrait was not a political figure, Merton estimated that he could not enter the gate of the company''s sun mansion.


    And Merton wanted his eldest son Wuji to ignore him immediately. There were still angry ideas there.


    "Mo xianbo, you only have half an hour." the housekeeper ordered.


    Merton nodded, immediately took the drawing board, picked up the brush and began to work.


    The first time I saw changsun Wuji, I couldn''t help being attracted by each other''s style.


    Now the eldest sun Wuji is only about thirty-eight years old. It is a period when a man is in his prime of life. Moreover, the eldest sun Wuji comes from an aristocratic family and has outstanding appearance and figure, which makes people feel good about him.


    Merton painted very quickly. In less than half an hour, the portrait of eldest sun Wuji had been completed. Moreover, under Merton''s deliberate beautification, the eldest sun Wuji in the portrait is even more handsome, which is just like the feeling of being ten years younger.


    "Duke Zhao, please have a look! Are you satisfied? If there is any problem, Merton will revise it again!" Merton handed the painting to changsun Wuji.


    "Eh!"


    Seeing the particularly young self in the painting, sun Wuji couldn''t help but make a sound of surprise.


    At the beginning, he really didn''t pay attention to Mozi. Before, he only heard how Mozi''s paintings were similar, but he was shocked to see such a realistic portrait.


    However, the eldest sun Wuji was a generation who had experienced great storms. After only three breath, he put down the painting and nodded to show that it was OK.


    Watching the eldest sun Wuji pick up the teacup, Merton said goodbye and left.


    "Mo County uncle, please come here?" the housekeeper of Gongsun''s house also noticed the host''s indifferent intention and said expressionless.


    Merton packed up his painting utensils and followed the housekeeper to go out. Just as Chang sun Chong came face to face.


    "Son of the MOH family!" the eldest grandson said with gnashing teeth.


    If the last time Merton used his new painting skills in Jiaosi square to make Chang sun lose face, this ink magazine storm can be said to make Chang sun Chong lose all his inside.


    Not only did his upcoming engagement fail, but even he himself became the laughing stock of Chang''an dandies. It can be said that his enemies were particularly jealous when they met.


    As soon as Chang sun Chong saw Merton, he couldn''t help getting angry. From small to large, Chang sun Chong, who had been well treated, had never been so wronged.


    Merton lamented that it was really difficult for a good man to do. He knew that he would offend people no matter what he did.


    "Chong ER!"


    The stern voice of changsun Wuji stopped the angry changsun Chong.


    Merton thanked his eldest sun Wuji and left quickly.


    "Father! In order to let the boy go!" the eldest son looked at Merton''s back and said angrily.


    "Then what reason are you going to punish him?" changsun Wuji looked at changsun Chong, who hated iron and steel.


    "He......" the eldest sun Chong suddenly became angry, yes! On the face of it, Merton''s publication of ink magazines has helped the changsun family a lot. If his changsun Chong marries a close relative of Princess Changle, he will have a silly son in his life, or princess Changle has dystocia, which is not the consequence that the changsun family can bear. As for face, how can there be a family tradition.


    In this way, Merton is also a great help to the changsun family. If the changsun family deal with the Mohist family at this time, wouldn''t it be a lie.


    Changsun Wuji shudders when he thinks about it. If he can''t get the princess, he won''t let the changsun family do what? But if the eldest grandson''s direct son is a fool, it will be a disaster for the eldest grandson''s family.


    "Besides, Princess Changle has clearly refused, and the matter itself has not been completed, so it''s over." changsun Wuji said in a final tone.


    In fact, he knows much more than Chang sun Chong. He even knows that Li Chengqian and Li Lizhi have been to Mo mansion in disguise, and Li Chengqian has secretly collected cases of close relatives'' marriage in Chang''an city.


    Moreover, the original case has the same copy on his desk. Li Shimin sent it to him. Although Li Chengqian has told the people in the east palace to keep it secret, Li Shimin''s every move in Chang''an City has escaped Li Shimin''s eyes, which shows that Li Shimin has tacitly accepted the situation and the handling methods of Li Chengqian and Merton, If the eldest grandson family retaliates against the Mohist school on a large scale at this time, it will only be hostile to Li Shimin and Prince Li Chengqian.


    At the same time, he will never do such a thing as offending the current emperor and the future emperor.


    The eldest son opened his mouth and said, "yes!"


    "Don''t worry, my father has arranged a new marriage for you, and your majesty betrothed Princess Gaoyang to you!" the eldest sun Wuji comforted.


    "Princess Gaoyang!" suddenly a unruly and willful figure appeared in Chang sun Chong''s mind.


    Although Princess Gaoyang is not the first born of empress changsun, she is also deeply loved by Li Shimin, but unlike Princess Changle, she is gentle and generous. Although Princess Gaoyang looks not bad, she develops an unruly character due to her mother''s early death and lack of discipline.


    "I...!" changsun Chong was dissatisfied, but due to changsun Wuji''s authority, Nuo dared not say.


    Maybe there is only God''s will. In previous life history, changsun Wuji set off a towering blood crime with the help of Princess Gaoyang''s rebellion. Now he has reduced to the point that he eats the consequences of his own evil.

 Chapter 111

    The best way to eliminate the influence of a news is to launch another explosive news, which comes from the truth of Merton''s deep rhyme in later generations.


    "Great drought in Guanzhong!"


    The front page headline of the second issue of Ink magazine published this explosive news, which immediately eliminated the influence of intimacy to the lowest point.


    The whole people in Guanzhong realized that the whole Guanzhong area had not rained for about a month and a half since several heavy snowfalls during the new year''s pass.


    In this era when food is more than heaven, no one talks about the harm of intimacy, and in a twinkling of an eye, they have become people concerned about the country and the people.


    "Huayin sunny day!"


    "Lantian sunny day!"


    "It''s sunny in Yong county and Yijun."


    Fang Xuanling looked at the ink magazine in his hand and the weather conditions in Guanzhong area. Not only the weather in Chang''an city is sunny, but also the weather in the surrounding governments is still sunny, and the whole land in Guanzhong is cloudless.


    It is not the biggest problem that the rain has not fallen for a month. The real problem is that there is no sign of rain in the whole Guanzhong region in the future.


    "Is the disaster of the four years of Zhenguan about to repeat, and God wants to bring disaster to the Tang Dynasty." Fang Xuanling said anxiously.


    "Mr. Fang is worried too much. The weather is changeable, which is a normal phenomenon. Although the Mohist school has the idea of bright ghosts, Merton believes that the immortals are high above, and there must be no fairy who will be bored to do this when it rains on earth." Merton put down his brush and looked at the vivid portrait in his hand with satisfaction, Continuous portraits have further improved Merton''s painting skills.


    However, no matter how exquisite the portrait is, it can not attract the slightest interest of Fang Xuanling. The shadow of the drought once again envelops this miserable land in Guanzhong. Thinking of the disaster in the fourth year of Zhenguan and the storm caused by it, Fang Xuanling''s heart was heavy.


    "You look like you don''t worry about the drought at all?" Fang Xuanling said in surprise when she heard Merton''s relaxed tone.


    You know, Mojia village is also a disaster prone place. Last year''s flood caused heavy losses to Mojia village. If Merton had not sprung up, what Mojia village would be like now is not certain!


    "Mr. Fang misunderstood!" Merton quickly explained.


    "Your father and I are in the same robe, and you and Juner are good brothers. Just call me uncle!" Fang Xuanling said kindly.


    "Uncle Fang!" Merton said, "Uncle Fang, please read the second edition of Mo magazine. Why don''t you worry about Mojia village?"


    "The second edition!" Fang Xuanling found that today''s Ink magazine had two editions! I picked up another version and looked at it. The first thing I saw was the large-scale advertisement of Mo hospital.


    "The Mohist school is really rich and does not flow into the fields of outsiders!" Fang Xuanling looked at Merton angrily.


    Merton''s advertisement can have been sent to chaotang. Fang Xuanling also knew the usefulness of the advertisement. Seeing the advertisement of Merton hospital, he knew what Merton''s idea was at the first time.


    "Uncle Fang doesn''t know. Ink magazines only need a penny each. With artificial materials, it''s good to not lose money! If you don''t print advertisements and charge some advertising fees, it won''t last long. In addition, new things such as ink hospital also need advertising publicity. Take what you need. After all, the smell of wine is afraid of the depth of the alley!" Merton explained.


    "Fallacies and heresies! If only the advertisements of Mojia village are printed, it will not be unfair to other businesses!" Fang Xuanling scolded.


    Morton did not expect Fang Xuanling to see the advantages and disadvantages of advertising at a glance. The wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.


    "Uncle Fang, don''t worry. Advertising is a new thing. Ink hospital only advertises to attract jade! If other businesses advertise, ink magazines will treat them equally," Morton said.


    Fang Xuanling found the words "Ink magazine is sincere for advertisers" on the middle page of Ink magazine, and couldn''t help nodding.


    The second edition is not all advertising. There are some breeding skills and some soft articles such as farming and breeding. In fact, it is also advertising in disguise for chicken, duck and goose cubs in Mojia village.


    "Waterwheel!" Fang Xuanling looked at the waterwheel advertisement which was no less than the advertisement of Mo hospital in surprise.


    "At this time, the new waterwheel refitted in Mojia village simplifies many links, is strong and durable, and is suitable for all kinds of hydrological environment," Merton explained, referring to Mojia magazine.


    In fact, Merton introduced a water turning rollover, which was invented in the yuan and Ming Dynasties, so that the waterwheel can use not only human power, but also animal power and water power. The water outlet effect is much better than the traditional bobbin truck.


    "The effect of this waterwheel is really as good as that in the advertisement?" Fang Xuanling wondered.


    He is not a politician who does not divide grain and work hard. On the contrary, he is very proficient in farming, and the house also has a fief. He is no stranger to waterwheel.


    "Uncle Fang, don''t worry, this has been practiced in Mojia village and has been personally recognized by big Si Nong." Merton said at the bottom of the ink magazine.


    "Curved plow in the water!"


    Fang Xuanling looked down and saw Su Lingnong''s signature, and spoke highly of the role of hydraulic rollover. He directly compared it with Qu Yuanli, which shows the position of hydraulic rollover in Su Lingnong''s heart.


    "All the places near the river in Mojia village have been overturned by water. The irrigation work in Mojia village began as early as half a month ago, and now the River land has been irrigated for three miles." Merton seems to be describing an ordinary thing without any display.


    Fang Xuanling couldn''t help feeling that Mojia village had such an inside story from a dilapidated village in the twinkling of an eye, and all this brought was the weak youth in front of him.


    Thinking of his children, Fang Xuanling had a headache. His eldest son, Fang Yizhi, was rigid and only knew to study hard. His second son, Fang Jun, was completely the other extreme. He didn''t say nothing about reading, but also preferred martial arts. He was well educated and his family was defeated by Fang Jun.


    "Having a son is like a Mexican family!" Fang Xuanling couldn''t help feeling for a moment. Fortunately, this idea flashed through his mind. The drought in Guanzhong is the most important thing in front of him.


    "I''m afraid the price of the waterwheel is not low!" Fang Xuanling thought of another situation. Since the waterwheel in Mojia village is so good, the price will be expensive. At that time, many people can''t use it. It''s useless.


    "Uncle, I don''t know. The price of the new waterwheel is just comparable to that of the traditional waterwheel. Moreover, Mojia village can give preferential treatment to farmers with land products. They can pay half the price first, and then pay the rest after the autumn harvest, or even rent the waterwheel for a short time." Merton said loudly.


    "Not bad!" Fang Xuanling nodded admiringly. The price of Mohist waterwheel is not expensive, and the sales method is flexible. It is indeed a blessing for the people in Guanzhong.


    "What if some land is far away from the river?" Fang Xuanling, the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty, asked the key to the problem. Close to the river, the land with conditional irrigation accounts for up to one tenth, while the land without water conservancy conditions can be found everywhere. Those are the top priorities of drought.

 Chapter 112

    "What if some land is far away from the river?" Fang Xuanling, the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty, asked the key to the problem. Close to the river, the land with conditional irrigation accounts for up to one tenth, while the land without water conservancy conditions can be found everywhere. Those are the top priorities of drought.


    In this era of official standard, the fields close to the river for irrigation belong to superior fields, and most of these superior fields are controlled by aristocratic families and landlords. These people have deep family background and strong ability to resist natural disasters.


    Every time, ordinary people are affected. Most of their land is barren middle and lower class fields, which are far away from rivers, which is not conducive to irrigation, or low-lying, which is not conducive to drainage. Drought and flood can cause large-scale production reduction of fields. They can only rely on the weather. They are the biggest victims of every natural disaster.


    Merton understood Fang Xuanling''s concern, thought for a moment, organized the language and said, "Uncle Fang, do you know that among our common water sources, in addition to rivers, there is a place with a large number of water sources, which are ubiquitous and almost inexhaustible."


    "Ubiquitous and inexhaustible?"


    Yes? Fang Xuanling felt that his brain was a little useless. If there was such a place, why didn''t he know and why the people didn''t water it.


    Fang Xuanling looked at Merton suspiciously, but found that Merton''s eyes were staring at his feet. Fang Xuanling suddenly realized, "well water?"


    Merton nodded and said, "Uncle Fang is wise. What my nephew said is well water, but the Mohists call it groundwater."


    Merton remembered that in later generations, pumping groundwater for irrigation was the mainstream of all kinds of motor wells. How many fields could be irrigated by river water alone?


    "Groundwater? The water source under the surface is indeed very vivid!" Fang Xuanling nodded. This water source is indeed ubiquitous and almost inexhaustible.


    "I know the well water, but it''s very difficult to drill a well, and it''s almost impossible to water the field just by carrying water bucket by bucket." Fang Xuanling''s hopeful eyes darkened in an instant. Although she found the water source, this idea is not practical and unrealistic.


    Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "Uncle Fang should not be in a hurry to deny it first. The experimental field in Mojia village in the south of the city is a dry field. Mojia is conducting an experiment to absorb groundwater. Uncle Fang will know if it can work."


    Although the 100 mu experimental field in the south of the city of Mojia village is close to Chang''an City, it is indeed a low-grade field. It is not only low in yield, but also far from the river and has not been irrigated. Otherwise, Mojia village could not easily succeed.


    "Oh!"


    Fang Xuanling''s eyes suddenly flashed. The experimental field of Mohism is famous in Chang''an city. In particular, Merton once promised to achieve six loads per mu. Many people are ready to see the joke of Mohism. It''s just wishful thinking to achieve such a high yield in a low-grade field.


    However, looking at Merton''s confident face, Fang Xuanling''s doubts subsided bit by bit, replaced by bursts of hope. If Merton can really solve the irrigation problem of inferior fields, it is not impossible to produce six loads per mu.


    If this method can be popularized, it will be the blessing of the people in Guanzhong and the people in Datang.


    Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling could no longer sit still and immediately took Merton out.


    "Hey! Why are you in such a hurry? Juner''s friend has just come, so why do you have to stay for dinner!" Fang Xuanling pulled Merton out of the door and saw a gentle and generous middle-aged lady coming.


    "Hello, aunt!" Merton saluted quickly.


    Merton is well-known for the lady in front of him. How can Merton not fall in love with Lu, who can teach the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty to be obedient? The word jealous originates from the woman in front of him.


    "Madam, don''t eat any more! We have something important to do!" Fang Xuanling waved and took Merton out of the door


    "Mother, Merton is leaving, and I''ll see him off too!" Fang Jun came out of nowhere and ran away with Merton.


    "This child!" Lu looked at Fang Jun who slipped away like a rabbit and said with hatred. In the twinkling of an eye, she was the only one left in the family to eat.


    "What are you doing here?" Merton said, staring at Fang Jun unhappily.


    As the prime minister''s residence of the current Dynasty, there were many carriages, of course, but Fang Jun was shameless and had to squeeze a carriage with Merton.


    "Nonsense, you think I want to be at home. If I''m at home today, my mother will definitely compare me with you for the whole lunch and can nag me all day!" Fang Jun thought about his tough mother and couldn''t help shrinking his head. At the same time, he hated Merton, another family''s child.


    "And Merton won''t be bored with you. I missed so many wonderful moments. I can''t miss it this time."


    Morton looked at Fang Jun in surprise. He didn''t expect this guy''s dog nose to be so clever.


    "What on earth can you tell me first?" Fang Jun said impatiently.


    Knowing that his son is like his father, Fang Jun certainly knows how calm his father is. It must be a great event to make his father so impatient.


    "You''ll know when you get to the place!" Merton sold the key and let Fang Junqi shout.


    The urgent Fang Xuanling directly opened the way with the prime minister''s line card. He walked unobstructed all the way. He soon reached the Nancheng gate. Less than two miles out of the Nancheng gate was the Mohist experimental field.


    Outside the Mohist experimental field, there is still a lot of noise.


    Spring ploughing has passed, and the sales boom of quyuanli has passed, but the sales of artificially hatched chickens, ducks and geese are still hot. In addition, the people of Chang''an City who saw the advertisements of ink magazines have come to rush to buy new hydraulic rollovers.


    As soon as Fang Xuanling got off the carriage, he saw a row of five huge waterwheel neatly displayed beside the pool outside the experimental field of Mojia village. This pool was originally a pond for transferring live fish in Mojia village, but now it has all given way to the waterwheel.


    "Hua Hua!"


    The two strong men of each waterwheel are stepping on the pedal of the waterwheel. With each effort, a large amount of pool water will be drawn out of the pool.


    The water outlet of the waterwheel splashed and flowed continuously. The surging water flowed half a circle around the pond and flowed into the pool again.


    "What a large amount of water!" the people of Chang''an City exclaimed.


    Compared with the traditional roller coaster, the water output of hydraulic rollover is much larger, which also means that the efficiency of irrigation is much higher, and the price is relatively flat. Of course, people with conditions are excited about these waterwheel.


    "This pond is passive water. If you don''t return the water, I''m afraid it will be drained in one day." Merton explained to Fang Xuanling, pointing to the water tanker.


    Fang Xuanling looked at the waterwheel in front of him with satisfaction. The advertisement of Mojia village did not exaggerate. This waterwheel is indeed as advanced as its propaganda, easy to operate and large water output.


    With this hydraulic rollover pearl jade in front, Fang Xuanling looked forward to Merton''s tool to absorb groundwater.

 Chapter 113

    "Tick tock!"


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    "Dangdang!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A sound of gongs and drums came from a distance, which attracted the attention of Merton and Fang Xuanling. A long team on the official road was coming slowly.


    "What is this?"


    Fang Jun looked curiously at the team gradually entering. It was so lively that it was like a wedding, but now it was close to noon. No wedding people would pick up the wedding at noon.


    As the team got closer and closer, the sound of gongs and drums became louder and louder, which attracted many people who came to buy water tankers. They saw the colorful flags of the team waving and a musical instrument team walking in front of the team. The sound of Suona and gongs and drums were deafening and played very hard.


    Behind the musical instrument team, seven little girls were bareheaded and carrying a triangular Yellow Dragon flag. Eight strong men followed behind with a huge clay sculpture of the Dragon King, followed by a large number of people.


    "Worship heaven and pray for rain!" Murton said in a deep voice.


    The seven little girls in front mean the seven women praying for rain, while the Dragon King sculpture in the back means the Dragon praying for rain.


    Fang Xuanling looked at the rain praying team in front of her. Her face was embarrassed. She didn''t expect that the drought had reached such a serious level. Many people had begun to pray for rain.


    These droughts have not been reported by the county magistrate at all. If it were not for ink magazine, they might not know that the situation has been so serious.


    Whenever the Dragon King clay sculpture stopped, all the people fell to their knees, a lot of sandalwood lit up, and the air was filled with a good smell, which was obviously valuable.


    A gray haired old man knelt in the front, kowtowed to the clay Dragon King three times and shouted, "Xiao Min usually ignored the Dragon King. Now he specially offered sacrifices. Please be kind to the Dragon King of Jinghe. Please give me a rain."


    "Please be gracious to the Dragon King of Jinghe River." all the people shouted one after another.


    "Then why did they ask the Dragon King of Jinghe!" Fang Jun didn''t understand.


    Merton explained in a low voice, "the most serious drought this year is on both sides of the Jinghe River. The water level of the Jinghe River directly exposes the riverbed. It is rumored by the people in Guanzhong that this year''s drought must have offended the Dragon King of the Jinghe River."


    The most serious drought is in the counties near both banks of the Jinghe River. In some places, it has not rained for a month and a half, and the water level of the Jinghe River has directly dropped to the lowest point in history.


    "Oh!"


    Fang Jun suddenly realized that he had always been in Chang''an city. Where had he seen the scene of praying for rain? He couldn''t help looking at the strange actions of the people.


    Burning incense, worshipping and offering sacrifices, the seven women knelt down to pray for rain. In addition, the rain praying team even invited a Taoist priest to dance the great God there, and almost used all the rain praying methods they could think of.


    "Hey! Merton, do you say that the king of Jinghe dragon forgives them for raining?" Fang Jun touched Merton''s shoulder and whispered.


    "The poor man begged the Dragon King for half a day, not asking the heaven for ghosts and gods."


    Merton sneered. If it''s useful to ask God, the God is too cheap. It''s easy to be bought by a few pigs and sheep.


    Fang Jun looked at the other family''s child in front of him speechless. Can you stop crying poetry when you disagree? Don''t you see that the parents are still in front of you!


    "What a man who doesn''t ask the heaven and asks the ghosts and gods!"


    A loud drink came from behind Merton, startled Merton, and quickly looked back. Li Eryi looked at the rain praying team in front of him. When the drought came, these people not only didn''t think about how to water the fields, but worshipped the Dragon God here to pray for rain. If God could pray for rain, the four-year drought in Zhenguan wouldn''t happen.


    "Ghosts and gods!"


    Li Shimin closed his eyes painfully. He had been desperate for it as early as four years in Zhenguan.


    "Your majesty!"


    Fang Xuanling exclaimed in a low voice. He didn''t expect that Li Shimin even came here for a private visit.


    Fang Jun and Merton were also surprised. They didn''t expect Li Shimin to be behind them. Fang Jun roared in his heart. It was really worth the trip. It was the right choice to follow the Mohist school. Even the emperor, who is rarely seen at ordinary times, could meet him.


    The three wanted to salute, but they saw Li Shimin wave his hand slightly and stop the people. Obviously, they didn''t want to expose their identity.


    Merton and Fang Jun had to give up and bow their hands slightly.


    "Your Majesty''s golden body, how can fish and Dragons wear white clothes and commit danger with their own body." Fang Xuanling whispered admonishment. Although this is outside Chang''an City, no one can bear the responsibility if Li Shimin has a problem here.


    "Don''t worry, I''ve already made arrangements!"


    Li Shimin shook his head.


    Fang Xuanling looked around and found that there were many people in disguise around. Although these people looked like other people, they always looked like nothing to Li Shimin, and the first was a familiar face - Li Junxian. Then she relaxed and stopped admonishing.


    "Besides, it must be an urgent matter for my prime minister to leave his government affairs and open his way with an official card. How can I not come and have a look!" Li Shimin said.


    He was outside Chang''an city to investigate the situation of the people and check the drought, but he accidentally found that Fang Xuanling went out from the Nancheng gate. He was curious to follow up and found that Fang Xuanling and mojiazi were together.


    "Merton, you are indispensable everywhere!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, looking at Merton with bad eyes.


    Merton felt a chill in his back and couldn''t help lowering his head with a guilty heart.


    Fang Xuanling quickly whispered what Merton said about the irrigation tools that can make use of the ubiquitous groundwater. Li Shimin immediately brightened his eyes and became agitated.


    Li Shimin was really shocked by the new waterwheel in Mojia village. If this new waterwheel was popularized, it could reduce at least 10% of the harm of drought, but he didn''t expect that Mojia village had made an idea about the irrigation of land far away from the river.


    "I thought that the improved new waterwheel in Mojia village had given me enough surprises, but I didn''t expect that there was another surprise waiting for me!" Li Shimin took a deep breath and calmed down his mood. If it was someone else, Li Shimin might doubt that he was still very confident in Merton. This boy would always make some incredible things.


    Well water! Li Shimin is certainly no stranger. In Chang''an City, there are some hundred year old wells everywhere. No matter how dry, these ancient wells will never dry up.


    It can be imagined how much water is buried under the land. If these water can be used for irrigation, it will really be a unique weapon to solve the agriculture of Datang.


    Generally speaking, as long as it is not in low-lying areas, more rain will have little impact on the harvest of agriculture, but drought is the biggest natural disaster in agriculture. Often drought comes together, thousands of miles of bare land and starvation victims everywhere.


    "If you can really solve the problem of dry land irrigation, I''ll write it off and let bygones be bygones." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    Merton lamented that the incident really happened. Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger. Although Merton''s intention is good and has been very euphemistic, Li Shimin inevitably feels that he has lost face.


    "Please move your majesty to the Mohist experimental field and let the boy show it to your majesty himself." Merton said confidently.

 Chapter 114

    Thank you for your great support to the generals and ministers during this period of time. The generals and ministers have seen your encouraging messages in the book review. Thank you very much.


    In the twinkling of an eye, this book will also be on the shelf. To tell you the truth, I owe you a little. There are too few free chapters updated some time ago. I can make up for them later.


    Finally, I have to pull the subscription. Because the monthly ticket is on the shelf eight days late, it has fallen too far behind. However, subscription is the foundation of a book. Please give me more support, especially the first order, which is the wind vane to test a book. Please be sure to click the first order. The generals thank you here.


    As for the update after it was put on the shelf, generals and ministers can''t guarantee that on the one hand, generals and ministers should take care of their families, on the other hand, they are also the disabled party.


    However, the generals and ministers, against the dissatisfaction of the leaders, have asked for a long holiday for ten days. I''m full of sincerity! Please give us your support.

 Chapter 115

    Mohist experimental field.


    Four Mohist children surrounded in a circle. In the middle was an iron bar about a foot long. The bottom of the iron bar was a cylinder one and a half feet long and half feet in diameter. The bottom of the cylinder seemed to be obliquely cut off by a sharp tool, leaving a sharp head.


    This is a common tool for digging wells and raising soil in later rural areas in the 1980s. Merton drew the drawings, which were easily made by skilled craftsmen in Mojia village.


    Mo Da holds two thick wooden sticks in his hands, and the two ends of the thick hemp rope are tied in the middle of the stick. The hemp rope entangled the iron rod again and again until it resisted the wooden rod. It was just right to divide the wooden rod into four and a half sections, each in one direction. A Mohist child held one end, and a simple well drilling tool had been completed.


    "Hey!"


    Under the command of Mohist University, the four Mohist children threw the tip of the cylinder to the already wet ground with the help of wooden sticks. They made great efforts again and again to fill the wet soil into the cylinder. Each time they raised the cylinder, they could always bring out a cylinder of soil.


    Soon, a Zhang long iron bar disappeared into the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye. When the iron bar didn''t reach the chest height, Mo Da picked up another Zhang long iron bar and connected it. The steps of pressing down and lifting soil were repeated again.


    "Water out!"


    In ancient times, the groundwater level was very high, even now it was extremely dry. When the first iron bar was completely submerged, the soil raised again had a thin mud state, which was a sign of water coming out.


    The water has a certain impact on soil lifting, and the hardness of the soil is much softer. Soon, the second iron rod did not enter the ground, and the third iron rod was connected again.


    It was not until the third iron rod completely disappeared into the ground that the well drilling work gradually came to an end. A deep well three feet deep had been built in just half an hour.


    Looking at the drilling speed of Mojia village, Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin were also stunned. It was not easy to drill a well in ancient times.


    A good well needs to dig soil first, and then dig a slope channel from the side to lead to the underground. It can''t be too deep. It''s easy to lack oxygen. Secondly, the water level in this era is very high, so it''s impossible to dig soil from under the water.


    After the water comes out, reinforce the shaft wall and carefully fill the channel of the well. A well can''t be completed in three or five days. The well in front of us should be dug in half an hour.


    "That''s it?" Li Shimin walked to the wellhead in person, regardless of the soil on the ground. Looking at the wellhead only half a foot wide, he couldn''t help frowning. The well was a little small and it was impossible to put the bucket in.


    Merton looked at the newly drilled wellhead, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Your Majesty, this is only the first step. Next, we need to wash the well."


    "Wash the well?" Fang Jun and Fang Xuanling stared at Merton dumbfounded. They have heard of washing hands, bathing and clothes, but how to wash a well underground? As for Li Shimin, he has long been used to the new words that Merton jumps out of his mouth from time to time.


    "Uncle Fang doesn''t know. There is a lot of soil in the water now. If you don''t clean up these soil in time, it will block the water hole under the well, which is not conducive to water out." under Merton''s explanation, the three people suddenly realized.


    "Then how can we get these muddy water out? Such a small wellhead can''t put a bucket at all." Fang Jun asked Li Shimin the question for a long time.


    Merton smiled mysteriously, "this is the top priority of this experiment. Mojia village will use a new tool to draw water from the wellhead until the water in the well becomes clear."


    In the curious eyes of the three people, Mo Da quickly built the wellhead with green bricks. Two Mohist children carried two and a half feet of iron pipe, and the other two carried an iron guy with a long handle and strange appearance.


    If someone in later generations is here, they will recognize that this is the most common water intake tool - well killing, which has been eliminated in the 1980s and 1990s.


    Put the two foot long iron pipe into the well, connect the upper end with the bottom of the kill well, simply seal it with soil, and then firmly fix it on the ground with a wooden wedge. A kill well has been completed.


    "This can get out of the water?" Fang Xuanling couldn''t understand what Merton did.


    "The last step is needed." Merton took a gourd ladle from Mo Da''s hand and poured the prepared water into the wellhead.


    Fang Jun stroked his sleeve, grabbed the well killing handle and pressed it one by one. This guy is powerful and powerful. This job is just suitable for him.


    Two or three times, under the regular pressure of Fang Jun, a large amount of muddy water was discharged from the water outlet of the kill well, gushing along the gullies sorted out in advance in Mojia village and flowing to the hungry land.


    "It''s done!" Merton smiled with satisfaction.


    Looking at the water mixed with yellow mud, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling didn''t dislike it at all. They reached out and took a handful of yellow mud water. Looking at and feeling the cold water, their ecstasy could no longer be restrained.


    Yes, this method is absolutely feasible!


    All the steps of Merton are unreservedly displayed in front of them. It is convenient to drill a well. The material used for well killing is iron, which is nothing more than a little more iron.


    And it uses manpower. For farmers, the most important thing is strength. As long as they can eat enough, it is worth the effort.


    "A kill well can irrigate about one mu of land. If you add water diversion tools such as bamboo pipes and copper pipes, you can only meet the water needs of two mu of land. If you drill more wells, a family can ensure a bumper harvest of five or six mu of land every year as long as it is not lazy." Merton said confidently.


    "Six Mu!" Li Shimin laughed with great joy. It must be good farmland that gives priority to drilling wells. If the family can have six mu of farmland to ensure harvest in drought and flood, it is that they can live frugally in disaster years.


    The most terrible thing in the disaster year is that there is no harvest, so that people can''t live.


    "In a few years, when the experimental field of Mojia village has developed improved varieties with a yield of six cattles per mu, the people of a family will be able to survive in abundance by relying on six acres of good fields." Merton said proudly, pointing to the experimental field of Mojia village.


    "Good!"


    Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were so excited that they couldn''t help themselves. If each household could be self-sufficient and hit three or four thousand kilograms of grain every year, unless there was a disaster of force majeure, the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty would be around the corner.


    Fang Xuanling looked at Merton with appreciation, and then looked at his son who was working hard to press the water. She couldn''t help but sigh. It was people who were more popular than people.


    Room 2 was speechless for a while. There were indeed many surprises with Merton, but the biggest disadvantage was that a child from another family was in front of him, and his sense of existence was almost zero.

 Chapter 116

    It has to be said that Fang Jun is indeed a natural military general, and few people can stop him with strange strength. Even Chumo is willing to bow down to the general Fang Jun.


    A well killing was like a toy in his hand. He shook it continuously for a long time, and his face was not red and out of breath.


    "Fang Aiqing, your son is really such a body. It would be a pity if he didn''t join the army."


    Li Shimin looked at Fang Jun''s bulging muscles and exclaimed. He thought that when he fought in the world when he was young, he also had a good body bone. Unfortunately, after calming the world, his comfortable life has made his body fat gradually, and it is no longer as good as before.


    "The dog doesn''t like reading and prefers martial arts, which makes his majesty laugh." Fang Xuanling said with a bitter smile.


    Fang Jun is the biggest worry for Fang Xuanling in the Fang family. His eldest son, Fang Yizhi, is the eldest son. He has a calm personality and will inherit Fang Xuanling''s title and government in the future.


    Fang Jun, the second son, had nothing. Fang Xuanling was going to ask the emperor for marriage and let Princess Gaoyang marry Fang Jun. in this way, even after Fang Xuanling has been a hundred years old, Fang Jun can be rich and noble all his life.


    Unfortunately, Merton''s Ink magazine not only spoiled the marriage of the Chang Sun family, but also spoiled Fang Xuanling''s wishful thinking. Chang sun Wuji saw that it was impossible to marry Princess Changle, so he asked Chang sun Chong to marry the beloved Princess Gaoyang. Fang Xuanling was unwilling and helpless. After all, he was not as close as Chang sun Wuji.


    Unfortunately, Fang Xuanling didn''t know the development of future generations. If she knew that Princess Gaoyang had harmed the house so miserably, she would never have this regret again. She didn''t even know how to feel Morton.


    Soon, the water from the well killing became clear, which meant that the well had been washed. With a sigh of relief, Fang Jun handed over the well killing to a Mohist child and came over with Mo da.


    "How are you, young master!" Mo Da ran over and saluted Merton. Although he didn''t know Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin, he also knew that the young master must be accompanied by dignitaries.


    "Young master, do you want to continue drilling?" Murdoch asked Merton for instructions.


    "Well drilling! Not only well drilling! But also well drilling should be enough to irrigate all experimental fields." Merton said proudly, pointing to the 100 mu experimental field.


    "Young master, if you want to irrigate all the 100 mu experimental field, you need to hit at least five * * *, but I''m afraid we can''t take care of it and delay the farming!" said Mo Da with a bitter face.


    He knew that the Mohist experimental field had a high position in the young master''s mind and was also the face of the Mohist village in Chang''an city. However, if the well is drilled slowly, I''m afraid the well will be completed in the end, and half of the crops in the experimental field will die of drought. I''m afraid Mohist will become a laughing stock of Chang''an city immediately, but Mohist village can''t draw people out. It needs manpower to make waterwheel and artificial incubator, and Mohist village''s fishing farm also needs a lot of manpower, There is an artificial shortage in such a large Mojia village.


    "If there are no hands, hire people to solve the drought in the shortest time. Not only the experimental fields should be watered, but also all the dry fields in Mojia village should be watered by digging wells."


    Merton firmly said, joking, Mojia village specializes in buying water tankers. If their fields suffer from drought, how to sell water tankers to kill wells is like a pig killer who can''t afford pork.


    "All wells are dug and watered?" modaton felt great pressure. There are many dry fields in Mojia village, accounting for about 80% of the total fields. I''m afraid the manpower needed will be a terrible number.


    "Merton, I''m afraid it''s difficult for you. How can we recruit enough people in such a short time." Fang Jun couldn''t see it and said a fair word for Merton.


    "Nuo! Isn''t there a large number of idle people?" Merton looked at the people worshiping the Dragon King on the official road. Nearly an hour later, the number of people worshiping the dragon and praying for rain not only didn''t decrease, but more and more, and the whole official road was almost blocked.


    Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling looked at the bold Merton speechless. They didn''t expect that he had hit the Dragon King. However, they didn''t stop Merton, because with Merton''s irrigation method, it doesn''t seem to matter whether the Dragon King will be angry in the future.


    It''s really a good idea for Mo da. As for whether he will offend the Dragon King, it''s not in Mo Da''s consideration. After all, if the fields in Mojia village have been watered once, who cares whether the Dragon King is angry or not.


    "The Mojia village has recruited well diggers, and the salary is fifty Wen a day!"


    On the official road, Mo Da roared, and immediately everyone was shocked.


    Fifty Wen is a high salary in Datang. The price of Datang is much lower than that of later generations. Fifty Wen is enough for ordinary people to spend a week.


    "Mojia village has always been so extravagant?" Fang Xuanling asked. As the prime minister, he certainly knows the prices and average wages of Datang. Fifty Wen a day kills most people''s salaries in the country.


    Such a high salary was offered by a servant without saying, while Merton on the side looked like a matter of course. Fang Xuanling couldn''t help but have some lessons.


    "Uncle Fang misunderstood. Mojia village has its own rules for making wages. It''s hard work to dig wells and water. It doesn''t lose 50 Wen a day. Moreover, if we can irrigate the fields in Mojia village in the shortest time, we can minimize the loss of the fields. Only when the land in Mojia village is irrigated in the shortest time can we make Mojia village happy The village''s tools and waterwheel sell well. In this way, Mojia village doesn''t lose 50 Wen a day, "Merton explained.


    "Profiteer!" Li Shimin heard that Merton did not hide his intention and looked at Merton contemptuously. Was the boy poor and afraid before? He was in the eye of money.


    However, the more magnanimous Merton is, Li Shimin can''t afford to blame. After all, the Mohist village doesn''t steal one, rob two, or hoard strange things.


    "Fifty words!"


    Many people who ask for rain are immediately moved. At present, the drought is rampant. If it doesn''t rain, grain production may be reduced, or even the harvest may be lost. If you take this opportunity to earn more money, you can''t successfully survive this year''s natural disaster. Suddenly, many people are moved here involuntarily.


    "Don''t move, aren''t you afraid to offend the Dragon King and bring disaster?" the old man, who was led by him, roared when he saw the floating heart.


    "Dragon King!"


    People praying for rain could not help looking at the Dragon King clay sculpture in fear. In this era, the theory of ghosts and gods is very popular, otherwise it would not attract so many people to pray for rain.


    "Do you think the Dragon King will rain if you give a few pigs?" Mo Da Leng snorted.


    "If you offend the Dragon King, I''m afraid there will be no peace in Guanzhong. Can your Mojia village afford this responsibility?" the old man said coldly.


    "You''re afraid to offend the Dragon King. I''m not afraid of Mojia village. Mojia village has made tools for dry land irrigation. Anyone who comes to recruit workers will be sold to you at half price after irrigation." Mo Da said impolitely.


    Mo Da''s last sentence became the last straw to overwhelm the camel. One was the illusory Dragon King, even if it was asking for rain, it might not fall, while the other was a real fact. The movement of drilling a well in Moda has already alerted everyone. When washing the well, the water from the well flowed directly onto the official path. Compared with the two, it is not difficult to choose.


    "I''ll come." a strong man like an iron tower stood up and walked to Mo da.


    "Zhang Wu, you... Do you know the consequences of offending the Dragon King!" the village head looked at the strong man in front of him angrily and couldn''t believe that these people really dared to betray the gods.


    "Village head, I know you meant well. Four years ago, I remember you led everyone to pray for rain, but if the Dragon King was really spiritual, the drought four years ago would not starve my mother to death. I don''t want to experience the same thing again." Zhang Wu, who is like an iron tower, said in tears. He didn''t go back to Mo Da when he thought of aggravating his hungry wife and children.


    "I''ll go too!"


    "I won''t ask for rain!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, the rain team scattered and empty, leaving only a few diehards around the village head and the old man.


    Mohism won a small game in the competition between Mohism and the Dragon King.


    Merton has no doubt that the well killing test can be successful. The well drilling equipment has been produced according to the mass production standard from the beginning. Mojia village has built a lot of well drilling equipment early and is ready to sell it on the test field. Now it happens to use it first.


    A set of drilling tools for every four people is more than enough. Under the command of Mexico University, dozens of drilling teams started together, and the scene was shocking.


    The workers who dig wells work very hard because they know that the sooner they finish, the sooner they can buy cheap kill wells and water their fields.


    "In two days at most, the 100 mu experimental field will be watered once! From then on, this experimental field will be as good as the weather and have a good harvest every year." Merton said with satisfaction. Merton never disguised and modest about the success of his efforts.


    "What a pity! If we could promote this mental irrigation technology a month in advance, we would not worry about the drought. It''s too late now!" Fang Xuanling said regretfully as he watched the water from the wellhead.


    Although the mojiazi have found a way to overcome the drought, I''m afraid most of the crops in Guanzhong have died of drought when they build well drilling tools.


    "Smelly boy, I know that if you take care of yourself, the people in Guanzhong will be in famine, and you still have the mood to show off." Li Shimin thought of the upcoming drought, a feeling of surplus but insufficient strength came to his mind.


    Obviously, there is a peerless prescription in front of him, but there is nothing he can do because of time. This feeling makes Li Shimin crazy. Unfortunately, maise Merton has become the first bird and the vent of Li Shimin.


    Merton immediately ran away, thinking of the famous Crab Effect of later generations.


    In an open basket, a crab can easily climb out, but if several crabs are put together, the result is that no crab can climb up. For no other reason, crabs are pulling back from each other.


    Merton suddenly realized a problem. Mojia village is likely to become the only crab to escape in the basket. It can be imagined that if all the farmers in the whole pass are bad, only Mojia village will reap a good harvest. I''m afraid that the harvest of Mojia village will not be envy, but the anger of countless people, and even the painstaking management image of Mojia village will collapse.


    It''s not about right or wrong, it''s about people''s hearts.


    No, we can''t put Mojia village in danger. Merton turned his mind and wanted to find a way to break the situation.


    "Wei Chen has a plan to solve the problem of drought in Guanzhong." Merton quickly shouted.


    "What?"


    Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling couldn''t believe their ears. Staring at Merton.


    "Smelly boy, what are you talking about? Do you know if you talk nonsense, it''s the crime of bullying the king!" Li Shimin stares at Merton with red eyes. Li Shimin is in a hurry to seek medical treatment. Even if there is a chance to prevent the disaster in Guanzhong, he doesn''t want to let go. Fang Xuanling also looks at Merton with hope.


    Unexpectedly, Merton bowed his hands to Li Shimin and said, "here, Weichen wants to impeach uncle Fang for his inaction."


    "Inaction?" Fang Xuanling was confused. Is there another crime in the law of the Tang Dynasty?


    "Merton! Don''t talk so much!" the second room shouted angrily at Merton''s impeachment of his father.


    "Ha ha! You Merton should impeach my prime minister. If you can''t give a reason, the crime of deceiving the king and the crime of false accusation will be punished at the same time." Li Er sneered. No impeacher in the world calls others uncle.


    "In the drought in Guanzhong, Mojia village developed new water tankers and killed wells. People in other villages organized to pray for rain one after another. Although it was useless, they also did their part. What did the government do in the drought?" Merton asked with a sneer.


    Fang Xuanling was stunned.


    Yes! What did the government do? After thinking about it, I suddenly found that the government had done nothing.


    "This is a natural disaster, a disaster that ordinary people can''t resist. They can finally rely on the imperial court but do nothing." Merton snorted coldly.


    "What do you think the government should do?" Fang Xuanling asked humbly.


    "New drilling tools and well killing are not difficult to make. Uncle Fang ordered to reduce a large amount of steel and summon all craftsmen in Guanzhong area to work overtime to make drilling tools and well killing." Merton said.


    Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "it''s really not difficult. I think I can do it. But even if it is, I can''t have as much labor as the experimental field in Mojia village."


    Drilling a well is a manual job. Usually four people work at the same time to drill a well. In the whole Guanzhong area, we can''t care how many fields and wells to drill.


    "As far as I know, there is a place in Guanzhong with a large number of idle labor force. It depends on your Majesty''s reluctance to use it." Merton pointed out.


    "Smelly boy, you should pay attention to the 16th guard. Do you know what the duty of the 16th guard is?" Li Shimin instantly understood the meaning of Merton. The 16th guard is Li Shimin''s elite force guarding Chang''an, with a number of about 200000 people.


    Morton said proudly, "of course, the boy knows that soldiers want to protect their families and defend their country, but the drought in Guanzhong will break up countless families. Don''t these families need to be protected?"


    Remembering that every time there was a major disaster in later generations, a large group of the most lovely people rushed to the front line. Thinking of this, Merton said excitedly: "this is a crisis, with both danger and opportunity. The government just took this opportunity to promote new irrigation tools, and the land in Guanzhong will never be so unprepared in the face of famine in the future,


    At the same time, for the 16 guards, this is a show, a show of drought resistance, but it is not a show, but a show of doing practical things for the people, but a show of his Majesty''s benevolence and love for the people, a show of military and civilian fish and water. "


    "Drought resistance show!" Li Shimin chewed the four words in his mouth, and the brilliance in his eyes became more and more shining. In this way, he will recover the hearts of the people in Guanzhong at one stroke, and no one can shake him any more.

 Chapter 117

    In the face of major disasters, the government often did nothing, which was the biggest pain of the ancient dynasties. On the one hand, because the conditions were limited, it was often powerless to act. More often, it was the official standard thought, and the officials were seriously divorced from the stratification of the people.


    It is usually after a major disaster that we rush to provide disaster relief. It is another disaster to encounter one or two corrupt officials who take bribes and bend the law, resulting in starvation everywhere and provoking civil unrest.


    Even if the disaster in the fourth year of Zhenguan happened under the eyes of the emperor, the losses caused were still unbearable to the Tang Dynasty.


    In particular, it was not long after the Xuanwu Gate incident at that time. The people in Guanzhong remember, especially Li Shimin''s killing his brother and forcing his father. With the help of the severe drought in Zhenguan for four years, many stubborn survivors thought that it was the natural disaster that brought down the crime on Li Shimin, which led to the severe drought and forced the palace together.


    In retrospect, Li Shimin still wakes up from time to time in his dream. The enemy Li Shimin has never been afraid, but Li Shimin is helpless in the face of the power of ghosts and gods.


    Li Shimin, who was able to launch the Xuanwumen coup, was definitely not a rigid person. He calmed down and thought carefully about Merton''s attention. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible.


    First of all, Guanzhong is the hinterland. It is impossible for foreign enemies to invade in a short time. Even in an emergency, the 16 guards who are still in Guanzhong can wear armor and become qualified soldiers at any time.


    Moreover, most of the soldiers of the 16th guard are Guanzhong children. They help their hometown. They not only do not resist, but also thank Li Shimin.


    Therefore, the risk of using the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard is almost zero, and Li Shimin has no possibility to refuse such a risk-free thing and a huge profit,


    Moreover, it is also related to the Centennial foundation of Guanzhong. Once the irrigation problem is solved in Guanzhong, Li Shimin will fully accept the hearts of the people in Guanzhong, and all the people will spontaneously support Li Shimin,


    Grain harvest every year, Guanzhong has been in short supply of food problems will also be solved, no longer need to spend a huge price every year to mobilize food from all over the country.


    Li Shimin became more and more excited. From time to time, he discussed the disaster relief plan with Fang Xuanling. Fang Xuanling was also very excited. He found that this way of military disaster relief was of great promotion value in the face of some huge natural disasters. These organized and disciplined soldiers can play a great role.


    The more they discussed, the more excited they were, and a wonderful plan was soon finalized.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. The people in Xiaguan were completely saved. Although he didn''t dare to say that he could restore production, he could at least keep some food and survive the disaster.


    In this way, Mojia village finally doesn''t have to worry about becoming the only crab to escape.


    "Lord long, forgive me! Lord long, forgive me! Other villagers are just hoodwinked by the Mojia village. Please forgive me. But the farmer has always been respectful to Lord long. If you want to punish the old man, punish the Mojia village." the village head led several devout superstitious people to apologize to the Dragon King in fear.


    "Fool!"


    Li Shimin snorted coldly. He now has a way to deal with the drought. He is very dissatisfied with the old man begging the Dragon King for rain and groveling.


    Isn''t this the fool policy you have been advocating? Merton secretly said, of course, he didn''t dare to say this in his heart, otherwise it would be another meal.


    "Old man, you don''t have to ask for rain any more. In a few days, the imperial court will organize the people to fight against drought and provide disaster relief." Li Shimin couldn''t bear the old man to continue suffering, so he advised him.


    "Disaster relief by the imperial court? The imperial court can control people and the Dragon King. I think you were with the people of Mojia village just now. You must be with them and want to cheat me." the village head old man doesn''t believe Li Shimin at all. If the government could fight drought and provide disaster relief, there would not be such a big famine a few years ago.


    Li Shimin glared at Merton with hatred and helplessly looked at the stubborn old man. He kindly advised the old man. He didn''t expect that he was also considered to be with the Mohist village.


    Merton was speechless. He didn''t think he would do anything, but he was still affected by the fish in the pond.


    "Cough! Old man, you don''t know. Mojia village has developed a tool for dry land irrigation and has given it to the imperial court. The imperial court will organize drought relief in a few days." Merton shouted to help Li Shimin solve the siege.


    "Seriously?" the village head and the old man didn''t believe. Mojia village is flooded with wells. Of course, he knows that one mu of land near the official road is almost finished.


    But he didn''t have so much money to buy tools and hire people. He still begged Lord long to be more reliable.


    "If the imperial court doesn''t provide disaster relief, Mojia village will help you dig wells for irrigation!" Merton patted his chest and promised.


    With the tireless publicity of Merton and Mojia village, the story of Mozi''s trustworthiness for thousands of years has been widely spread. In addition, the good trustworthiness of Mojia village has greatly improved the credit of Mojia village. The village head and the elderly immediately believed most of them. As for the other half, there is also a guarantee for irrigation from Mojia village?


    "That''s great. Thank you, master mo. master Mo is a benefactor of villains. Villains go back to set up a ancestral hall for the young master. Thank you for your kindness during the New Year holidays." the village head said excitedly.


    "No, the Mohists don''t believe in superstition!" Merton quickly refused, saying good or bad that he would persuade the excited village head and the old man away.


    I''m kidding. The emperor is right next to him. He wants to set up a ancestral hall for him. Isn''t that adding him to the fire?


    "Superstition?" Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously. Lisheng temple is the highest honor in the hearts of ordinary people, which even made the Mohists sneer.


    "The Mohist school calls some behaviors that make people blindly believe by means of ghosts and gods as superstition. Superstition does great harm. Those who are light are cheated of money, and those who are heavy are mistaken for people''s lives." Merton roughly explains the means of witches in the market to seek God, cure diseases, catch ghosts and release ghosts.


    "Do you mean that witches kill ghosts because paper people are coated with turmeric and blood stains appear when wooden swords are cut?" Fang Xuanling''s face was instantly dignified. It''s not a small matter. It''s simply a matter of human life.


    Merton nodded and said, "it''s not blood, but the alkaline water on the wooden sword turned red when encountering turmeric. This was first discovered by old Hua. Turmeric is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine. He knew it as soon as he heard it, which saved a life delayed in treatment in time."


    "When ghosts knock on the door, eel blood attracts bats. Blood stains appear on the paper because they have smeared things in advance! These witches really do harm to people!" Li Shimin''s face is very blue. Merton''s statement is reasonable and justified, and various means are very detailed, which makes people have to believe.


    There are countless witches in all parts of the Tang Dynasty. One can imagine how many people have been deceived.


    "These are only individual cases, only endangering individuals. According to Mohist records, in the previous dynasty, a god Han buried soybeans and statues in the earth, watered them day and night, expanded and sprouted bean sprouts in contact with water, and pushed the statues out of the earth bit by bit. Thousands of believers were absorbed overnight."


    "Hiss!"


    Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin took a breath. If Merton hadn''t said it himself, they might have been caught if they saw the gods growing in the soil bit by bit.


    Fang Jun looked at Merton with adoration on his face. Although it is often called the background, he will never be bored.


    "Some more ambitious people will bury the stone with reverse characters into the ground in advance. After a period of time, it will be tempting to dig it out and gather people to revolt." Merton broke another strong news.


    "Fish bellied books, bonfire and fox roaring!" Li Shimin''s face was very embarrassed.


    This method is not uncommon. At the beginning, Chen Sheng, the first person of rebellion, directly stuffed a note into the fish belly. He learned a few fox calls by the campfire. The method is extremely poor, but it happened to break up the great Qin Empire.


    "Your Majesty, these superstitions are very poisonous and must be banned." Fang Xuanling was also surprised in a cold sweat. Small superstitions, which are usually very common, hide such great harm.


    Li Shimin nodded heavily, but those threatening the rule of the Tang Dynasty must be eradicated immediately. Yu Guang swept the clay sculpture of the Dragon King aside. Li Shimin was very angry. Why is it superstition to ask for rain in front of him!


    Li Shimin grabbed the long knife worn by Li Junxian, flashed it, and the clay sculpture faucet fell to the ground.


    Merton was surprised to grow up and became confused. In the romance of the novel, Wei Zheng killed the Dragon King of Jinghe River and Li Shimin was the guarantor. Now he has become Li Shimin''s Dragon King.

 Chapter 118

    At any time, the power of the government is the most powerful. The powerful bureaucracy will burst out extremely powerful in the shortest time.


    Under Li Shimin''s order, carts of iron materials were pulled into Chang''an City as if they didn''t need money. All blacksmiths in the whole Guanzhong area were requisitioned. Ordinary blacksmiths only need to cast extension rods for well drilling tools. Highly skilled craftsmen were assigned to cast well killing and well casing.


    The most important tools for well drilling and soil lifting were distributed to Mojia village, because the supervisor found that the tools for well drilling and soil lifting in Mojia village were unusually hard and sharp.


    The general supervisor also thought about making his own soil lifting tools, but the experiment found that once the soil lifting tools produced by the general supervisor encounter stones underground, they will be damaged and even scrapped on the spot.


    With a big hand, Li Shimin directly packed the soil lifting tools to Merton. The supervisor who had been trying to plot the secret recipe of iron making in Mojia village turned black on the spot.


    Frankly speaking, compared with the price given by Li Shimin, every one made by Mojia village is only breakeven, because Mojia village adopts the formula provided by Merton, and the practice is close to steel. There are several more processes, and the cost increases sharply.


    Even so, Merton had no objection, but ordered Mojia village to give up all its business and fully open its horsepower to build soil lifting tools.


    With the unlimited supply of materials, Mojia village has an extraordinary manufacturing power. With various advanced tools and the power of one village, the soil lifting tools produced can completely keep up with the production speed of most blacksmiths who will be supervised and concentrated, sometimes even more than enough.


    With the completion of the first batch of well drilling tools, Zuo Wuwei of Qin Qiong was the first to accept the order of disaster relief and set off for both sides of the Jinghe River, which was the most severely affected by the drought.


    "The imperial court sent officers and soldiers to fight drought and provide disaster relief!"


    The people of Gaoling shook their arms and cheered. Among the drought, the people of Gaoling were the most severely affected. The seeds in the ground didn''t come out at all. At this time, if they could be irrigated, the seeds might germinate.


    "Hey!"


    The four soldiers grabbed the handle and pressed it down! A lot of soil was brought up,


    Every time the soil is brought out, it will be applauded by the people surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside.


    In their view, this well is not a simple well, but their hope to live.


    In anticipation, the four soldiers were also enthusiastic, and their strength had to be increased.


    Soon, a well was drilled.


    Zuo Wuwei''s soldiers quickly put away their drilling tools and went to another drilling site. They were only responsible for drilling wells, while the work of washing wells and watering the land was handed over to the owner of the field.


    "Water out!"


    Shortly after the four soldiers left, cheers from the wellhead resounded through the field.


    Not far away, Merton and Qin Qiong couldn''t help smiling happily. They had heard a lot of such cheers, but they were always tired of hearing them.


    The main purpose of Merton''s coming this time is to escort a batch of drilling tools to Zuo Wuwei and complete the task of portrait of Ling Yange.


    "Merton, you may not believe it. This is the most glorious day when I led the army, not how many battles I won." Qin Qiong said proudly. Qin Qiong killed countless enemies when he led the army in war. He never thought that he could lead the army to relieve disasters and save people one day.


    "The duty of officers and soldiers is to protect the country, and drought relief is not a kind of protection of the country," Morton sighed.


    "That''s right!" Qin Qiong laughed loudly, obviously in a very happy mood.


    Shortly before noon, the gang soldiers had already prepared food, and the officers and soldiers of Zuo Wuwei ate in batches.


    The villagers on one side killed the only old hen at home and cooked delicious food, but every soldier took a look and wolfed down the food in his hand.


    "General, this is Xiaomin''s wish. All the military masters are tired and just need to replenish their strength." an old man begged after Qin Qiong.


    "Sir, we can''t accept it. We have rules." Qin Qiong refused with a smile. She also took a share of the soldiers'' food and ate it without any special.


    "What a teacher of benevolence and righteousness!" the old man murmured with tears in his eyes. ¡°


    Merton grabbed a steamed bread, sat down in a corner and swallowed hard, even though he was used to the craftsmanship of the fish master, but now he ate very sweet.


    "Touch!"


    Four soldiers full of mud sat beside Merton, swallowing the steamed bread in spite of the mud.


    "Qin Huaiyu!"


    Morton Leng looked for three seconds before he recognized that the guy on his left was Qin Huaiyu, who loved to be clean and show off.


    Merton quickly looks at the three people nearby. Sure enough, Chumo and Yuchi Jingde are the two guys, and Fang Jun is the other one.


    "Why are you in zuowuwei?" Merton asked in surprise.


    "It''s just us. All the children of generals over the age of 15 in Chang''an City have been given signs of disaster relief." Qin Huaiyu hesitated with steamed bread in her mouth. As for Fang Jun, although he was not behind the generals, he was praised by Li Shimin for not being a soldier. Unfortunately, he was also recruited.


    The three suddenly nodded, but because of Qin Huaiyu''s relationship, the four of them directly followed Zuo Wuwei''s first batch out for disaster relief.


    "I''m also the son of the general!" Merton wondered, and then thought that he might not have been recruited because of the supervisor''s drilling tools!


    The four of them finished eating quickly and went to dig wells again without looking back. Each pair of soldiers got the same number of wells. Although they were strong, their strength was still not as good as Zuo Wuwei''s 100 trained soldiers. They were already far behind, so they had to hurry up.


    The same is true of other soldiers. Once they finish eating, they immediately put themselves into intense well drilling work. No one is tired or sneaky, because everyone knows that if the well is drilled a quarter of an hour earlier, the drought can pass a quarter of an hour earlier.


    The same scene appeared in every piece of land in Guanzhong. Teams of officers and soldiers put down their weapons, took off their armor, and madly helped the villagers dig wells without asking for return.


    Moreover, without eating a mouthful of food from the people, they were wrapped in marching at night and rested on the spot, not occupying a residential area.


    The soldiers of the sixteen guards, except that two guards stay in case of accidents,


    The other 14 guards are all over Guanzhong. Every time they go, they leave a deep well.


    A hundred!


    A thousand,


    Ten thousand.


    Each wellhead represents that the drought crisis has been lifted, and the drought in Guanzhong has been quickly controlled.


    At the same time, Li Shimin gained the most from the disaster relief, and Li Shimin''s prestige directly reached the peak.


    "A famous gentleman through the ages!"


    All the people in Guanzhong are grateful to Li Shimin.


    The drought resistance show shows a famous King through the ages.

 Chapter 119

    "Don''t forget the well digger when watering!"


    The front page headline of the Mexican journal hyped the glorious deeds of the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard in drought relief.


    Some officers and soldiers fought for two days and nights, tired to the ground; Some officers and soldiers were just assigned to their own villages, insisted on ranking their own fields last, gave priority to drought relief to other villagers, and then in the face of major disasters, the glory of human nature appeared, and heroic deeds shook people''s hearts.


    In the past, the people did not have a good impression of officers and soldiers. Bandits were like combing soldiers and soldiers were like grate, which is the most vicious word to describe officers and soldiers. However, the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard completely overturned the people''s previous impression of officers and soldiers in Guanzhong.


    Don''t eat, don''t take, don''t card, lie on the ground when tired, don''t disturb the people, and spare no effort to relieve the disaster. I have to say that Li Shimin is indeed a natural politician. With a little bit of Merton, Li Shimin immediately understood the essence and did better.


    "A teacher of benevolence and righteousness!"


    Countless Guanzhong people are grateful. Such officers and soldiers have never appeared in China. In the past, Guanzhong people said that men were not soldiers, but now Merton believes that as long as they cheer up and actively join the army, Guanzhong children can row from Gaoling to Chang''an city.


    Li Shimin''s prestige reached the peak in an instant. At this moment, the people in Guanzhong no longer remember Li Shimin''s black history of killing his brother and prisoner''s father. They only know that Li Shimin saved them at their critical moment. If anyone dares to black Li Shimin again, these people will come forward and fight for their lives without saying a word.


    "Don''t forget the well digger when watering! That''s a good slogan!"


    On the field outside Sanyuan County, Li Shimin looked at the ink magazine in his hand, looked at the well drilling soldiers everywhere, listened to the gratitude of the people, and showed an expression of enjoyment.


    "It''s your Majesty''s wise and caring for the people, which is the blessing of the people of the Tang Dynasty." Merton flattered behind him. Merton''s task this time is still to escort the drilling tools. By the way, he will give a portrait of Cheng Yaojin, who contracted to fight drought in Sanyuan County. As soon as he was finished and ready to go back, he found the ink family


    Li Shimin smiled with complacency. This time, he took all the hearts of the people in Guanzhong and cleared away Li Shimin''s long-standing worries. His throne was not right, so he desperately wanted to do better and prove that being an emperor was the best choice of Datang.


    Therefore, he was diligent and open-minded to accept advice, attacked Turks in the north, opened up Xinjiang and expanded land, and tried to become a Ming king to prove that his original decision was correct.


    Drought resistance show, let him prove himself again, let those villains in the dark shut up.


    "Your majesty!"


    Cheng Yaojin hurried here.


    "Know the festival! Has the drought of the people been controlled!" Li Shimin asked.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. I''ve been in Sanyuan County for three days, which can ensure that each household has drilled at least three wells, enough to keep six mu of land." Cheng Yaojin promised.


    The drought relief policy formulated by Li Shimin is very simple, that is, whether you are a noble family or a small family, you are treated equally and dig wells in turn.


    Even if you have more land, you can only wait until the next round of drilling is your turn. In this way, the interests of small households are guaranteed to the greatest extent.


    In this way, the landlords with a lot of land are not satisfied. Unfortunately, it is of no use. The officers and soldiers don''t listen to you at all. They want to dig their own wells. They can''t even find a blacksmith. They have been requisitioned by the imperial court and can only stare.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. The harvest of six acres of land is enough for the whole family to survive the drought. As for the landlords themselves, they have a strong ability to resist the drought. Some paddy fields have already been watered. If it''s bad, there are still five or six acres of land to keep the principal.


    "General! General!"


    An old man in a brocade robe called Cheng Yaojin and wanted to get close, but he was stopped by the soldiers who secretly protected Li Shimin. The old man in a brocade robe didn''t know Li Shimin and thought it was Cheng Yaojin''s subordinate! He kept whispering, trying to come over.


    "Let him come!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice. He wanted to know what the old man in brocade wanted to do.


    The soldier loosened the brocade robe slightly. After a simple search, he was released. There were still two soldiers behind him, just in case.


    "Old man, what can I do for you, but no soldiers help you dig a well?" Li Shimin asked kindly.


    The old man in the brocade robe looked at Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojin. He was a little overwhelmed.


    "If you ask, you answer!" Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    "If you return to your people, Xiaomin''s land has drilled three wells, but Xiaomin has more fields and wants to buy a set of well drilling equipment from the general!" the old man in brocade robe explained quickly in the future.


    "It''s impossible! The drilling tools are specially provided by the government! It''s impossible to sell them now!" Cheng Yaojin flatly refused. This is the emperor''s move to benefit the people. If they are sold, they will smash their signboard.


    The old man in the brocade robe said anxiously, "please show mercy to the general. The land in Xiaomin''s house is dry land, and the three water wells are a drop in the bucket. At present, Xiaomin''s land should not be watered in time, and most of the land will have no harvest this year. Moreover, Xiaomin found that the drilling equipment allocated by the officers and soldiers has been slightly redundant. Please show mercy to the general and give a set to Xiaomin."


    The elder in brocade robe is the largest landlord Liu Shiming around. He has a lot of land at home. He has used three wells to the extreme. He has only watered ten mu of land, and there is nothing he can do about the rest of the land.


    According to the government''s allocation and well drilling method, it is impossible to irrigate nearly 1000 mu of land of the Liu family. Therefore, all the hopes of the Liu family can only be placed on self-reliance. It is urgent to have a set of drilling tools.


    He didn''t dare to touch the drilling equipment in the hands of officers and soldiers, so he always paid attention to the number of drilling equipment. When he found that there was surplus, he immediately came to Cheng Yaojin.


    "Well drilling equipment is redundant?" Li Shimin looked at Cheng Yaojin in surprise.


    However, Cheng Yaojin is also confused. He has been on the front line these days. He uses drilling tools immediately without counting them.


    Merton bowed his head, nodded and said, "every time the Mojia village sends drilling equipment, two more sets will be sent as standby! In case of errors. So, with the boy''s recent delivery, if there is no damage, there should be six sets of drilling tools left in Sanyuan county."


    "Yes, yes, there are more than six sets, two of which have been damaged, and four of them should be intact." Liu Shiming''s mouth report, obviously, has been staring at it for a long time.


    "Four sets!" Li Shimin couldn''t help pondering.


    In the final analysis, the Tang Dynasty was ruled by the landlord class. This time, with the help of the drought, the government has taken care of the interests of small farmers to the greatest extent. If conditions permit, it is not impossible to take care of the interests of the landlord.


    Thinking of this, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "one of the four sets of equipment is divided into two. Two sets can be sold to landlords with a lot of land, and the other two can organize young people to continue drilling. He ordered the supervisor to continue to manufacture drilling tools, and the redundant tools will be implemented according to this scheme in the future."


    "The emperor is wise!" Cheng Yaojin nodded,


    In this way, we can not only ensure the continued growth of the drilling team, but also take into account the interests of the landlords.


    "Emperor!"


    Liu Shiming trembled and almost fell to the ground. He didn''t expect that the person in front of him was the Emperor today.


    "The great disaster in Guanzhong! Please work together with me to tide over the difficulties!" Li Shimin is a natural politician. In just a few words, Liu Shiming was moved to tears. The complaint at the bottom of his heart had already disappeared.


    This is Li Shimin''s political wisdom. The way of balance is pure.

 Chapter 120

    With the progress of drought resistance, the number of well drilling tools produced by Mojia village and the supervisor is increasing. In addition, the local government organizes young people to cooperate with officers and soldiers in well drilling. The speed of drilling wells immediately increased greatly.


    The irrigation area of the field is becoming larger and larger, and the hungry crops are crazy to absorb the hard won water. Sufficient water and photosynthesis soon become green and grow very well.


    Every household in Guanzhong saved at least ten mu of land harvest. Looking at their newly watered fields, the miserable people in Guanzhong gradually smiled. At least this year, the disaster has passed.


    no Not only through this year''s disaster, with these deep wells, from now on, no matter how big a drought, as long as the well water does not dry up, there is no need to be afraid.


    Many people with active minds have planned to continue drilling wells after the drought and directly drill all the remaining land. Once there are signs of drought, they can''t irrigate all the Yongye fields at home day and night.


    Moreover, sufficient water ensures that the crops will increase by more than 30% every year, which is a predictable income.


    According to this calculation, the drought is a blessing in disguise. Although a lot of land is destined to reduce production this year, these wells are worth the loss.


    People have steelyards in their hearts, and their interests, gains and losses are clear.


    "Boom!"


    On the 20th day of the drought, a spring shook the earth in Guanzhong,


    A large black cloud came from the northwest, covering the whole land of Guanzhong in an instant.


    This time, God didn''t spoil people''s appetite. A burst of spring thunder rolled past,


    "Pa Pa Pa!"


    Bean big raindrops like no money fell from the sky and hit the hungry land. It rained like a curtain. It seemed to rain enough at a time.


    "Oh! It''s raining!"


    "God bless, the drought is finally over!"


    "The Dragon King... Bah! The Dragon King has long been beheaded by his majesty!"


    "There are these wells! Who still believes in the Dragon King!"


    The land in Guanzhong was jubilant. A large number of people rushed out of the house, greedily absorbed the long lost rain, and allowed the raindrops to wet their clothes.


    The bear children played in the rain and made their clothes dirty, but the adults didn''t mean to blame at all.


    Smiling one by one.


    The drought is over, and more people are happy. Fortunately, the government''s drought relief is timely, otherwise there will be famine this year.


    Now we have a harvest of more than ten mu of land, and the harvest of other fields is more or less. This disaster year has survived.


    One by one, the officers and soldiers loosened their hands and sat on the ground, allowing the rain to wash their mud. The drought relief that has been fighting for more than 20 days is finally over.


    Qin Huaiyu sat on the ground and looked at each other''s embarrassed appearance. They couldn''t help laughing. This drought relief trip shocked them too much. It was a baptism from the body to the soul.


    "At noon on the weeding day, sweat drips down the soil, but everyone knows that Chinese food is hard." Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help reading this poem of compassion for farmers. In the past, they only thought that Merton''s poetry was well written, but after the drought, they didn''t know the suffering of the people. They felt the difficulty of the common people for the first time, and the four people really realized the food they ate, Every drop is so precious.


    Tai Chi palace,


    Li Shimin led Wen Chen of the Manchu Dynasty to look at the majestic heavy rain outside the hall. He was finally relieved that the drought was finally over.


    Although the heavy rain came late, it was always better than not. In fact, in Merton''s view, if the water was not watered everywhere in Guanzhong and a large amount of water evaporated, the rain might fall when, or even not.


    "Your Majesty, the drought is finally over. God bless the Tang Dynasty!" said the eldest sun Wuji with joy


    "Congratulations, Emperor!"


    The Manchu civil and military congratulated one after another.


    Li Shimin laughed and was extremely proud, but said modestly, "I dare not take credit for it. It all depends on the concerted efforts of the army and people of the Tang Dynasty. This is the only way to overcome the drought."


    In this crisis, Li Shimin turned the crisis into an opportunity. He not only found a clear way to resist the drought, but also took the hearts of the people in Guanzhong and became the biggest winner.


    "Your Majesty, the drought has been relieved. Can the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard return to the court? After all, Chang''an is empty. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate to go on for a long time." Chang sun Wuji suggested,


    Li Shimin pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "it''s still thoughtful of the auxiliary machine. I''ll call these disaster relief heroes back to Korea, and I will reward them on merit."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Chang sun Wuji can be trusted by Li Shimin because he is not only Li Shimin''s wife and uncle, but also his political wisdom. A small suggestion can sell well to the military and show in front of Li Shimin.


    Fang Xuanling was also happy. Among the literary ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, his silly son joined the army. After all, he left for nearly a month and did rough work. Of course, he was very distressed.


    "Your Majesty, there are a large number of well drilling tools in the hands of the 16 guards against drought this time. I don''t know how to deal with them." Fang Xuanling listed.


    In a short time, we concentrated the whole Guanzhong and produced a lot of drilling tools at once. At present, the drought has been relieved, and the drilling work can be done slowly. We don''t need so many drilling equipment at all.


    Li Shimin thought, this is really a difficult problem. These incoming equipment can be built at a high price and with a lot of manpower and material resources,


    Just paying for iron materials almost didn''t empty out the household. After all, in this era, iron can be strategic materials, and the price is very expensive.


    Moreover, well drilling tools and well killing play a great role in Datang. If the whole is used well, the agriculture of Datang will change dramatically.


    "Every county in Guanzhong has left 100 sets of well drilling equipment, and the county magistrate will organize the young people to continue drilling. The rest will be distributed equally to all roads in the Tang Dynasty to popularize the method of drought resistance in Guanzhong." Li Shimin said with blood dripping in his heart that there are tens of thousands of well drilling tools, which are all real gold and silver! However, for the long-term plan, these investments are also worth it.


    Fang Xuanling''s eyes lit up and popularized the method of drought resistance in Guanzhong. That''s not the method of drilling wells by households in turn, which ensures the interests of most people to the greatest extent.


    "Yes!" Fang Xuanling ordered.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. With this good prescription and sharp weapon, Datang will no longer be afraid of drought." all the ministers congratulated in unison. In the whole agricultural production, the main natural disasters are drought and waterlogging, among which drought is the most harmful and frequent. Now drought can no longer cause harm to Datang.


    "Ha ha ha!"


    Li Shimin was very excited. This was the first time in human history to overcome natural disasters, which was realized under his rule,

 Chapter 121

    "Young master! Young master!"


    Merton turned over vaguely, pulled the quilt over his head and ignored the noise outside.


    "Young master! Get up, today is the time for you to go to the morning!" the voice in purple outside the room persevered, bangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbangbang! Clap the door and shake it.


    "Go up!"


    Merton suddenly a spirit, suddenly jumped up from the bed, and no longer felt sleepy.


    Today is a day to reward people for their contributions to drought relief. As early as yesterday, a eunuch informed Merton to go to the morning Dynasty.


    This is the first time Merton has approached the power center of Datang. To be honest, curiosity is definitely greater than excitement.


    With a squeak, Merton yawned, casually dressed in a dress and opened the door.


    "It''s dawn, it''s too late!" Merton looked at the bright sky outside and was shocked.


    This is the first time he has gone to court. If he is late, he will die.


    "Young master, it''s not too late at all. It was early in the morning. It''s enough time to start from now to the palace." Ziyi hurriedly grabbed Merton who was fleeing out.


    7 a.m. to 9 a.m.!


    Merton immediately made a big red face. Only then did he find that he was deeply poisoned by the Qing palace opera of later generations. He thought that all dynasties went to the court at the Mao Dynasty. Fortunately, Li Shimin was not the abnormal Emperor Yongzheng.


    Merton changed his court clothes, simply had a simple meal and hurried to the imperial city. Only then did he find that there were few ministers. After Merton arrived, he came one after another.


    Merton looked at the two distinct civil and military columns and consciously ranked behind the generals.


    In front of him was a man familiar to Merton, Li Junxian, but Li Junxian was very old-fashioned and ignored Merton''s chat-up. Merton asked for a boring and embarrassed stand at the end.


    There were not many courtiers qualified to go to court. They knew each other all the time. Suddenly, a new face appeared, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Many courtiers suddenly realized that in the last few months, mojiazi rose like a comet in Chang''an City, and now he has grown to stand side by side with them.


    When you think about your own children, you can''t help feeling that having children should be like Mohism.


    "Mo lie is really lucky!" many people in the military said with emotion. They used to be very familiar with Mo lie. They once regretted his early death, but now they envy him.


    "Boom!"


    Open the gate of the imperial city!


    Merton followed the ministers, stepped into rosefinch Avenue and entered the imperial city.


    Compared with the previous two times when Merton entered the Imperial City, Merton''s mood this time is no longer as uneasy as the previous two times. Walking at the back, he has leisure to look around.


    "It must be a mathematician who built the imperial city!" Murton said secretly, because he found that the biggest feature of the whole imperial city was symmetry.


    The whole imperial city follows the symmetry of Zhuque Avenue. As long as there is one on the left of Zhuque Avenue, there must be one on the right.


    At the end of rosefinch Avenue, a towering building appeared in front of Merton. This is the Tai Chi hall, the power center of the whole Tang Dynasty!


    Merton couldn''t touch the East, West, North and south for the first time, but he had a unique skill, which was to follow Li Junxian. Sure enough, Merton found his position next to Li Junxian''s long table.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he found it. Otherwise, Merton was ready to squeeze with him regardless of whether Li Junxian agreed or not. Who had the lowest position among the Manchu generals before Merton came?


    Now that he has been promoted to the penultimate place, shouldn''t he pay some price?


    "The emperor has arrived!"


    With Pound''s sharp voice, Li Shimin appeared on the Dragon chair and the early Dynasty began.


    The efficiency of Zhenguan period was very high, and political affairs were handled quickly.


    Soon, Li Shimin put down his papers and looked at the courtiers.


    All the courtiers also put down their government affairs one after another and knew that it was time to reward them for their achievements.


    "Fang Aiqing! How are the drilling tools distributed everywhere?" Li Shimin asked loudly on the Dragon chair.


    "Your Majesty, the roads around Chang''an have been distributed, and drilling wells have been organized one after another. Other roads in the north are being sent. As for the roads in the south, due to their remote location, the possibility of drought is low. Weichen just sent the drawings and ordered them to build their own locally, and other roads in the north are also carried out as usual." Fang Xuanling responded.


    This is what Fang Xuanling most appreciated by Li Shimin. As long as things are handed over to Fang Xuanling, they can always be done properly, sometimes even overfulfilled.


    "Fang Aiqing is still considerate!" Li Shimin nodded approvingly. If the imperial court pays for casting, how many holes will have to be filled in.


    "It''s an unprecedented event in a thousand years that our Tang Dynasty can overcome the drought for the first time. For the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard participating in the disaster relief, each of them will write down one merit and reward them with three months'' salary." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Thank you, Emperor!" the military said with great joy.


    The military merit of Datang is very valuable. The officers and soldiers of the 16th guard will be able to get at least one more Yongye field when they retire and return home in the future. What''s more, it''s not very difficult to be a leader. However, if they want to climb up, they need greater military merit.


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, felt worried. This time, the Ministry of household would bleed again, but the money Dai Zhou spent was very refreshing. If the drought in Guanzhong was not controlled, I''m afraid the Ministry of household would spend more than a hundred times.


    Li Shimin stopped, looked around, and finally saw Merton looking around behind him. He said angrily.


    "Burmerton of Kaiguo County offered the method of drought resistance and well drilling to reward the marquis."


    For this award, the dignitaries were not surprised at all. After all, this method of drought resistance is too important for Datang. This is the first time that mankind has the means to fight against natural disasters. Being promoted to rank is not enough to match Merton''s contribution.


    Many courtiers looked at Merton in the corner with envy. Titles are not granted casually, and inherited titles are very different from those granted for merit.


    From today on, Merton really got rid of the identity of the second generation of marquis and became a real Marquis, and he was the youngest marquis in the Tang Dynasty.


    However, the ministers suddenly found that Shane Merton, who should have been grateful, was indifferent. His eyes stared at Li Shimin, looking like he was still waiting for a reward.


    Li Shimin''s face turned black and angrily said, "Lord Mo is dissatisfied with my reward?"


    "Ah! Wei Chen dare not!" Morton said with a bitter face. How come others have increased their salaries in March and they don''t have any money.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly. It can be said that Mojia village is making a lot of money every day. You have the face to give me a reward. My Treasury is empty for this drought relief.


    Then, the prison and blacksmiths all over the country were rewarded, and the reward on merit conference came to a successful conclusion.


    Besides, Merton kept saying, "don''t even give me a hundred words."

 Chapter 122

    "Play when you have something, and retreat when you have nothing!"


    Pound''s sharp voice sounded. According to the past practice, this is the routine question of Li Shimin''s withdrawal from the court. It''s like a person familiar in the street asking if you have eaten. All the ministers have packed up their things and are ready to leave the court for office.


    "Weichen has a book to play!" a voice broke the tacit understanding of chaotang for many years.


    The crowd followed the prestige and looked directly at the burly Li Junxian. Li Junxian awkwardly stepped out and exposed Merton behind.


    "This lengtouqing!"


    Many courtiers frowned slightly, but they didn''t know the tacit understanding of the court when they thought of the Mo family''s first visit to the court, so they didn''t say anything.


    "Oh!"


    Li Shimin looked at Merton in surprise. Although he intuitively felt that Merton must be a moth, it was a rule for the courtiers to play, and it was not easy to reject it.


    "Mo Aiqing! What''s important? Present the memorial!" Li Shimin is going to press it first. Otherwise, if he doesn''t pay attention, the boy is likely to break the news again.


    "Memorials?" Merton was stunned. This was the first time he went to court. Where was there anything.


    The ministers could see Merton''s embarrassment and couldn''t help laughing. Li Shimin suddenly turned black. This guy shouldn''t have failed!


    "Merton shouted and played without foundation. He deliberately disturbed the order of the court. He was spoiled because of his work. It was lawless. The Royal historian jumped out at the first time when he saw that Merton was eaten.


    "Morton, you''re a child''s family when you''re in court! If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful your ass gets hit again." Li Shimin''s black face scares Morton, but anyone can hear Li Shimin''s love slowly.


    "The Mohists are really lucky!"


    Many courtiers were surprised and could let Li Shimin protect them personally. It can be seen that Merton''s position in Li Shimin''s heart.


    "Back to your majesty! I really have something to start. Because I didn''t write a memorial, and I can''t explain this clearly, I organized a play and played it for your Majesty in person." Merton said wrongfully.


    "Drama?" Li Shimin wondered.


    Merton played with him and finally explained to Li Shimin what drama is.


    "Oh!"


    Li Shimin suddenly realized that he just acted out the story?


    In this era, in addition to the emperor and the harem 3000, entertainment programs are also limited. Merton''s words aroused Li Shimin''s appetite.


    "In addition, Wei Chen needs several helpers. They are outside the palace!" Merton said.


    "Sure!" Li Shimin looked like a business, but the excitement in his eyes couldn''t be covered up.


    Outside the Tai Chi hall!


    A stage was soon set up. There was a incense table with candles burning incense and yellow paper on it.


    Many courtiers could not help frowning, but they didn''t say anything to stop them when they thought of the magic performance of the mojiazi.


    Wang Yushi was overjoyed. The more absurd Merton was, the more he could grasp the handle of Mohist school. Thinking of this, Wang Yushi immediately became energetic and focused on picking Merton''s fault.


    "ShenHan''s deception!"


    A young man held up a sign with five big words to let the ministers know Merton''s intention.


    "Qin Huaiyu!"


    Qin Qiong opened her eyes wide and couldn''t believe looking at the young man who raised the sign. She couldn''t help but turn her eyes to Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde. Obviously, as long as she had her own boy, the other two families couldn''t run away.


    Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong also looked helpless. Their boy had just come back and got together with Mohist. However, they had no objection to their dealings with Merton. After all, although they always made some big things with Merton, it was better to be a dandy to walk the dog and play birds


    "First, kill ghosts and see blood!"


    Qin Huaiyu turned over the sign and revealed another line of big characters.


    "Immortal master, my brother is ill. Please cast a spell and save my brother!"


    Sure enough, Chumo appears on the stage holding Wei Chi Baolin, who has a flashy face.


    "Your brother is a fierce ghost upper body. When our immortal master casts a spell to expel ghosts, your brother will only heal without medicine." with his hair disheveled, Merton dressed up as a divine man and his young face trying to pretend to be a fairy wind bone.


    The ministers were awestruck, and their faces suddenly became serious, witchcraft! When they thought of the previous brand, they finally understood that Merton wanted to crack these witchcraft.


    In fact, this kind of thing is only popular among the people, and many imperial officials are superstitious. Killing ghosts and seeing blood is a common means of folk wizards.


    Merton was holding a peach wood sword, chanting words in his mouth, and more grandiose jumped up to the great God. He took out a yellow paper, dipped the peach wood sword in water, and cut into the yellow paper. Suddenly, several bright red blood stains appeared on the yellow paper, as if it was really like a fierce ghost being killed.


    "Ah!"


    The ministers exclaimed. They couldn''t believe looking at the little man stained with bright red blood. Only Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling had a calm face. They had already known the answer from Merton.


    Merton fired a candle at the incense table, which made all the ministers jump.


    "Your fierce ghost has been killed by me. After drinking this cup of rune, all your diseases will be eliminated." Merton bewitched.


    On the stage, without hesitation, Yuchi Baolin immediately presented a large sum of money, drank the rune paper gray water, and immediately fell to the ground and died.


    "Bold man, he pretended to play tricks with turmeric and alkaline water. He didn''t care about human life! Take it down!"


    Finally, Fang Jun, who plays the role of constable, came on stage, exposed Merton''s means and put Merton in prison.


    Fang Xuanling looked at his silly son silently. He didn''t expect you to go into the pit.


    The performances of Merton and others were very pompous, and the ministers certainly didn''t believe that Merton really had the means of ghosts and gods, but they thought in another position. If he was really a fairy man, would he drink this night''s Rune paper ash like weichi Baolin in front of him?


    The ministers could not help sweating.


    Next, invite immortals to descend to the Buddha, show words in tea, write in rice soup, and cure diseases with divine skills. One by one, the common means of folk wizards were cracked by Fang Jun.


    Every time he cracked one, the faces of the important officials were gloomy. Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were even more gloomy. Last time, Merton only mentioned two, which were far less detailed and intuitive than today. In particular, when he saw Wei Chi Baolin''s boastful death over and over again, no one laughed, but his heart was cold. If he didn''t know the truth, I''m afraid even they will believe it, not to mention the ordinary people.


    It can be imagined that for so many years, witch doctors have been rampant. How many people have wasted their lives because of delaying treatment, as Wei Chi Baolin played.


    Wang Yushi was pale and as like as two peas. He never felt the trouble of Morton. He himself believed in these ghosts. He had invited the wizard to practice at home. The means used were exactly the same as that of the Morton, and even the instruments were not complete.


    That''s not to say that he was cheated or cheated by a second-rate liar.


    "Wash your hands in the oil pan!"


    When Qin Huaiyu raised the sign again, everyone was in an uproar.


    The fear of cooking oil can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Whether it is recorded in historical books or the legend of eighteen layers of hell, each one makes people shudder.


    However, everything in front of them broke through the bottom line of everyone''s heart. A big pot was set up, the fire under the pot was raging, and the oil waves in the pot were rolling.


    And mojiazi stretched out his hands and washed his hands comfortably in the oil pan. The impact was really shocking. Even Yuchi Baolin, who fell to the ground and pretended to be dead, couldn''t help sitting up and staring at Merton''s performance.


    Merton was secretly proud of the sensational effect. If the oil was not really difficult to clean, Merton chose a more shocking oil pot to take a bath.


    "It''s impossible!" Wei Zheng was pale and trembling.


    Everyone knows that the MOH family is cracking the magic of the divine man, but they have seen the raging fire and the rolling oil waves with their own eyes.


    "What''s going on?" before Fang Jun came out to decrypt, Li Shimin rushed to Merton for the first time. He could understand the previous runes and keep calm, but Li Shimin couldn''t calm down when he saw that Merton could get out of the oil pot even by means of eighteen layers of hell.


    Qin Qiong repeatedly picked up Merton''s oily hands and looked through them, but there was no injury at all.


    "Hey!"


    Cheng Yaojin is bold and wants to learn from Merton to put his hand deep into the oil pan. As a result, he tries to point it out and is scalded.


    Merton quickly stopped the fire under the oil pan and ordered the ministers to stay away from the oil pan.


    Merton somehow didn''t forget Fang Jun, who had become the background wall, recruited him to reveal the secret of the oil pan to Li Shimin and his ministers.


    "Oil above and vinegar below." the ministers didn''t expect it to be so simple.


    "Oil is very light. Once mixed with water, it will float on it. I can''t see it at all. This trick is very simple. Many oil mills use this means to mix water into their hands and practice fraud." Merton explained the principle.


    "Moreover, the boiling point of vinegar is very low, and it is under the pot. When the fire burns, it will boil. From the outside, it''s like an oil pot rolling. In fact, it''s not hot at all." Merton tried the temperature in the oil pot with his hand, indicating Cheng Yaojin to experiment again.


    "Eh! It''s really not hot!" Cheng Yaojin exclaimed.


    Looking at the oil pan rolling, in fact, the temperature in the pan is only moderate.


    "Then why? The last time I touched it, it was very hot." Cheng Yaojin didn''t understand.


    "That''s because my nephew deliberately delayed for a period of time. The vinegar in the oil pan has been burned out and the temperature of the oil pan has been very high, so uncle Cheng feels hot."


    The ministers suddenly.


    "The means of these magic sticks are really despicable. In this way, they can quietly annihilate the evidence, which is impossible to prevent." Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    "I inform your majesty that I have been ordered to crack the means of witch doctor cheating. Today I report to your majesty and ask your majesty for instructions." Merton solemnly saluted Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with appreciation. Although this little catfish is usually not worried, it is very bright to do things and knows how to take credit for Li Shimin.


    "The emperor is wise!" the officials hurriedly said


    "Tell your majesty, most of the people are stupid and illiterate, and some places are deeply harmed by superstition, and the legacy is difficult to clear. If this form can be popularized, I believe the effect will be very good." Fang Xuanling saw the advantages of drama at a glance, intuitive and clear. Moreover, the more stupid and illiterate people are, the more superstitious they are. If this method is used, it will get half the result with twice the effort.


    "OK! Fang Aiqing will do it immediately. Merton will fully cooperate with Fang Aiqing. This time, we must eradicate the wind of folk superstition," Li Shimin said firmly.


    "Yes!" Fang Xuanling and Merton ordered.


    Merton went to court for the first time and ended perfectly.

 Chapter 123

    In order to cooperate with Fang Xuanling''s action to eliminate superstition, Merton poured out all the dry goods in his head.


    At the same time, ink magazine also printed a supplement to expose various means of superstition.


    "Old Hua, this article is good! Witches and gods can''t believe it. They have to go to Mo hospital to see a doctor."


    During the Imperial College, Chumo suddenly patted the ink magazine in his hand and said angrily.


    "Well, that is, how many innocent lives these witches and gods have killed every year is still a good skill of Chinese medicine." Zu Mingjun agreed. His fracture was treated in Mo hospital before. He didn''t say it was completely free. He recovered quickly and didn''t leave any problems.


    Not only Zu Mingjun, but also other students of bingshe agree.


    During this period of time, the Mexican hospital of HuaLao received the heart of Guozi supervisor. The Mexican hospital has excellent medical skills and considerate service, and charges half price for Guozi supervisor. Once Guozi supervisor gets sick, he goes to the Mexican hospital for treatment.


    Guozi Jiansheng got benefits. Naturally, he was not so hostile to Mohism.


    Ink magazines are naturally popular in the Imperial College, and even loved by these young people. After all, in this era, even the students of the National Academy of sciences have very limited access to information.


    Moreover, the quality of these issues of ink journals is very high. First, it is the harm of close relatives'' marriage, and then it is the first to report the drought in Guanzhong, drought resistance and disaster relief of officers and soldiers. In addition, this issue of cracking superstition makes the students of the National Academy of Sciences very happy, causing fierce discussion and response.


    For a while, ink magazine became the mouthpiece of Chang''an City, and everyone scrambled to discuss it, which led to a large increase in the subscription volume of Ink magazine in the first half of the year and the whole year.


    "It''s a witch and a divine man who do great harm to people!" Wei Chi Baolin looked like he felt it.


    Merton couldn''t help rolling his eyes. Haven''t you been the victim several times? How can I feel it?


    Merton couldn''t help showing a trace of pride when he listened to the people''s praise for the Mexican hospital. In these issues of newspapers, Mexican magazines successively published articles from Chinese and old people, coupled with large advertisements, soft and hard advertisements, which suddenly made the name of the Mexican hospital famous in Guanzhong area.


    "Where''s Qin Huaiyu?" Merton turned and found that Qin Huaiyu couldn''t be seen.


    "I don''t know. This guy was there just now!" Chumo shook his head and said.


    "Merton, it''s not good!" Qin Huaiyu, who had just disappeared, rushed into bingshe in a hurry.


    "I''m fine!" Merton said with a dark face.


    "No, it''s Mo hospital, Hua Lao!..." Qin Huaiyu panted.


    Merton was surprised and suddenly stood up and said, "what''s the matter with old Hua?"


    "Someone wants to challenge Chinese medicine!" Qin Huaiyu gasped and said.


    "Oh!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief, reproached Qin Huaiyu and said, "we don''t know old Hua''s medical skills. We can be afraid of who!"


    "Yes!" Zu Mingjun immediately said.


    "No, it''s Doctor Liu who challenges Hua Lao this time!" Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    "What? Doctor Liu," Chumo exclaimed.


    "Who is Doctor Liu?" Merton looked puzzled.


    "Doctor Liu is the first famous doctor in Chang''an city!" Qin Huaiyu said. To be exact, he was once the first famous doctor in Chang''an city. Since the birth of Mo hospital, under the publicity of Mo magazine, Hua Lao has become the first famous doctor in Chang''an city.


    The power of advertising appeared for the first time in Datang. However, it is only a small part of the power of advertising to hold Hua Lao as the first famous doctor in an City in the shortest time.


    The more terrible power is reflected in the Mexican hospital. After three consecutive periods of advertising bombing, coupled with the friendly price, considerate service and the addition of Chinese fame, the Mexican hospital has become the first choice for people in Guanzhong to see a doctor.


    Every day from morning to night, the Mexican hospital is full of people, and all those who see a doctor in the Mexican hospital, after recovering from illness, publicize again, forming a chain trend, crowding out some hospitals.


    Doctor Liu is one of the biggest victims. He lost his position as the first doctor. Needless to say, the business of his own hospital is bleak, and the most direct culprit is mo hospital.


    "I see!" Merton suddenly understood the whole story.


    "It''s better than that. Hua Lao is afraid of him!" Zu Mingjun said angrily. He has become Hua Lao''s iron powder only since he was cured by Hua Lao. Moreover, Hua always makes Mo hospital grow by relying on his real skills and medical skills. Who can blame the patients for not going to you?


    "Don''t you know? Although Doctor Liu''s fees are a little expensive, his medical skills are useless. His unique skill of hanging a silk to diagnose the pulse is amazing," Chumo said anxiously.


    "Do you really have this unique skill?" Merton said in surprise.


    "Of course! Doctor Liu is now blocking the door of Mo hospital, ready to challenge old Chinese medicine with the unique skill of hanging silk to diagnose pulse!" Qin Huaiyu pointed to the door and said.


    "What are you waiting for? Go and have a look!" Merton ran out excitedly, leaving Zu Mingjun and others looking at each other. Looking at Merton''s extremely excited back, who is this guy with!


    Merton doesn''t care what others think. It''s a hanging silk pulse! It''s said that Merton has heard a lot about the highest unique skill of traditional Chinese medicine. Now he can witness it with his own eyes and get what he wants. How can he not be excited.


    Outside Mexico hospital,


    The inner and outer floors, which have been surrounded for a long time, have been overcrowded since the ink magazine advertisement started. Now there are two great doctors in Chang''an City, which attract more and more viewers.


    However, even if there are many people, there is always a two car wide channel that is automatically vacated. This is the emergency channel of Mo hospital.


    "Ink hospital is really unique!" Liu Mingcheng said with emotion.


    Just this first-aid channel, in just half an hour, four or five carriages have pulled the patients into the hospital unimpeded. No parking at all.


    In contrast to his own medical school, where is such convenience? Originally, Liu Mingcheng rushed to the hospital and thought that the Mexican hospital was just opportunistic and in vain. Now it seems that he has some preconceived ideas.


    "Dad, these are just the means for Mo hospital to fish for fame and reputation, but with medical skills, our Liu family''s hanging wire to diagnose the pulse is the unique skill of the medical master." behind him, Liu Licheng, Liu Mingcheng''s son, said proudly.


    Yes, the unique skill of Liu family''s hanging silk to diagnose pulse is still a family inheritance, which has always been passed on to children rather than women. Liu Licheng is the descendant of the Liu family.


    Liu Mingcheng nodded with a gloomy face. No matter what the medical skills of Mo hospital are, he blocked the financial path of the Liu family. The so-called robbing people of money is like killing their parents. Don''t blame the Liu family for being rude. Liu Mingcheng doesn''t believe that any family''s medical skills can compare with his hanging silk pulse diagnosis.


    "Brother Liu, well done!"


    "Brother Liu, it''s up to you!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Several voices of support came from the crowd. This is the doctors of other medical schools in Chang''an city. The rise of Mo hospital did not only bring bad luck to the Liu family. Other small and medium-sized medical schools in Chang''an city had no medical skills and no price. I don''t know how many closed down under the rampant advertising power of Mo hospital.

 Chapter 124

    "Thank you for your support!" Liu Mingcheng arched his hands to Sifang to express his thanks.


    "Dad! It seems that Mo hospital has committed public anger!" Liu Licheng said happily as he watched so many people support him.


    "A fat family will hurt the world. The Mexican hospital has made heaven and earth angry." Liu Mingcheng was overjoyed when he saw that the form was good to himself.


    After this battle, Liu''s Medical Museum will not only regain its peak in the future, but also become the leader of Chang''an City Medical Museum.


    This is a good opportunity to earn both fame and wealth. Thinking of this, Liu Mingcheng was more excited. He couldn''t help but shout: "Chang''an suspended diagnosis is a pulse to see you. Please give me your advice."


    Liu Mingcheng has a fairy face, thick eyebrows and black hair. In fact, he is over half a hundred years old, but he is well maintained. It''s not too much to call Hua Lao brother in terms of seniority.


    "Dr. Liu, Mr. Hua is giving first aid, and the patient can''t get away. Moreover, Mr. Hua said that the doctors are as vast as the sea. Each has his own expertise and strengths, and there is no need to compete!" only Mo Wu rushed to Mo hospital, which meant that the two people turned to Mr. Hua.


    Among the five brothers of Mo family, Mo Wu is the most clever. He studied medicine with Hua Lao when he was in Mojia village. After the establishment of Mo hospital, Merton sent Mo Wu to help Hua Lao and was accepted as a disciple by Hua Lao.


    "There''s no need to compete. I think it''s Hua Yuan to avoid the war!" Liu Licheng sneered.


    "It''s boring for a doctor not to think and save people, but to learn from the wild man in the mountain village here!" Mo Wu retorted.


    "Hum! If I have a patient, who will come to you for a competition!" of course, Liu Mingcheng and his son can''t say these words anyway.


    As soon as Liu Mingcheng''s face changed, he hummed coldly, "since doctor Hua is busy, I''ll wait here until doctor Hua has time."


    After that, Liu Mingcheng and his son put a table and a sign at the door of Mo hospital.


    "Hanging silk for pulse diagnosis, free consultation."


    "Hanging silk to feel pulse?" people around suddenly exclaimed!


    Most of the people around are residents of Chang''an city. Of course, I''ve heard of hanging silk to diagnose the pulse. It''s a legendary unique skill. It''s usually for noble people to see a doctor. Where have ordinary people seen such secret skills.


    At present, such luxurious technologies can also be enjoyed without spending money. Suddenly, many patients who came to Mexico hospital for treatment were excited and surrounded one after another.


    "One by one!"


    Suddenly, many doctors came together to help maintain order.


    Liu Mingcheng and his son look at the enthusiastic crowd in front of them and show a proud smile. Even if they can''t force Hua Yuan to fight today, they can make the reputation of Liu''s medical school big noise and regain its reputation.


    A red line, a doctor, can accurately diagnose a person''s condition at a distance of one foot from the patient. This is hanging wire to diagnose the pulse.


    "Buzz!"


    Liu Mingcheng gently pushed his fingers, and a vibration was transmitted to the other wrist of the silk thread.


    "Excessive liver fire!"


    "Yin yang imbalance!"


    "Cold disease!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Each hanging wire pulse diagnosis can accurately diagnose the disease, and can cause bursts of cheers from the onlookers. Among them, the other doctors in the hospital who followed them turned red and cheered, which was even more exciting than their own hanging wire pulse diagnosis.


    "This is a symptom of body cold, which is caused by congenital deficiency."


    Another section of the silk thread was wrapped around a white wrist. The owner of the wrist was shocked and opened her mouth. This was the first time she came to Chang''an for medical treatment after seeing the advertisement of Mo hospital. When she came here, she saw the struggle between Liu''s father and son and Mo hospital.


    Hearing that Liu''s father and son were going to use hanging silk to diagnose their pulse for free, they immediately signed up.


    "Did you really check it out?" the woman was shocked. She didn''t expect to have such a unique skill. She could diagnose the disease with a slight vibration, and it was not bad at all.


    "This is a disease of body deficiency. It is born with insufficient Qi and blood. According to this prescription, it can be alleviated in one month. If you want to recover, you must recuperate for a long time." Liu Mingcheng hung his silk to feel the pulse, and Liu Licheng wrote a prescription and handed it to the woman.


    "Long term recuperation?" the woman was stunned and hurriedly said, "Doctor Liu, can''t even hang a silk to diagnose the pulse cure the little woman''s disease?"


    The woman is a person who has been ill for a long time. Of course, she knows what long-term conditioning is. Countless doctors have said this to her, but she has great confidence in the hanging silk pulse. If even the miracle doctor with the unique skill of hanging silk pulse can''t cure her disease, she


    For a moment, the woman suddenly became discouraged.


    When Liu Ming finished his meal, he smoked from the corner of his mouth. Countless patients have asked him so. You can hang a silk to diagnose the pulse. It''s just a means of diagnosis. It''s not a panacea for all diseases.


    Hanging a wire to diagnose the pulse is very tiring. Liu Mingcheng diagnosed more than ten patients in a row. He was physically and mentally tired and motioned his son to replace him.


    "Next!"


    Liu Licheng took over the silk thread and saw a beautiful young man panting and winding another section of the silk thread around his hand.


    The young man smiled shyly at Liu Licheng with a sunny smile.


    "What a pity! He is so weak at a young age. It seems that he is also a miserable man!" Liu Licheng regretted.


    This was the battle of Liu family''s name rectification. Liu Licheng didn''t dare to be careless. He immediately held his breath and felt the vibration from the silk thread with his heart.


    "Something''s wrong! The boy''s pulse is very strange. It''s obviously disordered, but it''s strong and powerful!" Liu Licheng was shocked and sweating. He didn''t expect to encounter such a strange disease.


    "What''s the matter?" Liu Mingcheng asked when he saw his son''s embarrassment.


    Liu Licheng quickly said the juvenile''s symptoms again. Liu Mingcheng was stunned, grabbed the silk thread and felt it. His face suddenly turned black.


    "Your Excellency is obviously not ill. It''s not just his intention to come to amuse Liu." Liu Mingcheng said angrily.


    "No disease?" Liu Licheng didn''t understand. The boy''s pulse he clearly explored was very disordered and out of breath. How could he not be ill?


    "If you run for a while, you''ll also be out of breath and pulse disorder." Liu Mingcheng looked at his son and said helplessly. In terms of medical skills, Liu Licheng doesn''t belong to anyone, that''s why he has less experience.


    "Ah!"


    Liu Licheng suddenly became angry and looked at each other fiercely. He regretted that the boy had been fooled.


    The young man was exposed and said with an embarrassed expression, "Mohist Merton has seen Doctor Liu."


    "Merton! Mojia Zi!"


    Liu Mingcheng was shocked. Of course, he had heard of this young man who had recently become famous in Chang''an city. He also knew that a barefoot doctor in Huayuan, a village, had such a large hospital in a short time. He became the first famous doctor in Chang''an City, which was promoted by the young man in front of him.


    Liu Licheng''s teeth itched with hate. He didn''t expect to tease his youth. He was still the culprit who brought the Liu family medical school to the brink of closure. This time, new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart.


    "Mojiazi, Lord mohou!"


    The people around were very excited when they heard that the boy in front of them was Merton. Merton offered the method of drought resistance and directly saved countless people in Guanzhong.


    Many people want to set up a ancestral hall for Merton and burn incense day and night. Unfortunately, the government is getting rid of superstition, and the Mohists don''t believe that, so they have to give up.


    Now, seeing immortal Merton, I can''t calm down and come forward to salute one after another.


    "Young master!"


    Mo Wu saw Merton and hurried to meet him.


    After Merton returned the gifts to the people, he looked at Mo Wu. With the prosperity of Mo family village, in just a few months, the thin little mo Wu had grown tall and strong and became a big guy.


    "Well, I already know!" Merton looked at the wronged Mo Wu, so he was blocked and challenged, which humiliated the Mo Wu who was in adolescence, and his tears kept turning in his eyes.


    Mo Wu burst into tears and smiled. With the young master''s words, he immediately felt that the matter in front of him was no longer a problem. In his heart, as long as the young master came out, there was nothing he couldn''t do.

 Chapter 125

    "What does Master Mo mean? Is he deliberately entertaining Liu?" Liu Mingcheng shouted coldly. Even the Marquis of the Merton Empire, he is not afraid of the limelight. Liu Mingcheng, as the first famous doctor in Chang''an, also has certain contacts.


    "Doctor Liu misunderstood. Merton, like others, also wanted to experience the hanging wire pulse diagnosis of the famous Chang''an city." Merton pointed to the people diagnosed by the hanging wire pulse diagnosis.


    "I don''t know what master Mo''s advice is." Liu Mingcheng was stunned. He didn''t think it was the answer, but he didn''t believe it at all. He stared at Merton and said word by word.


    "Amazing!" said Merton with a straight face.


    "Ah!"


    Everyone suddenly exclaimed. Everyone knew that Mohist hospital was the industry of Mohist school. They thought that Merton would deliberately belittle Liu''s father and son. How could they expect that Merton should praise hanging wire for pulse diagnosis so highly.


    Mo Wu''s tears, which had disappeared, reappeared again. Young master, how can you grow the prestige of others and destroy your ambition.


    Liu Mingcheng and his son were also surprised. Unexpectedly, the Mexican family even praised their unique skills. It''s really a divine assist! However, Merton''s next sentence made his father and son split.


    "What a pity! From now on, the unique skill of hanging silk to diagnose pulse, which has been spread for thousands of years, will become a masterpiece!" Merton said with regret.


    "Shit, Merton is domineering!"


    Behind him, Qin Huaiyu and others took a cold breath. They didn''t expect Merton to be so domineering and destroy him humanely.


    The people around are also in an uproar. Is this still the Mohist son of Ten Thousand Buddhas.


    "Young master, not at all!" Mo Wu was startled. He didn''t expect that the young master should take such extreme measures.


    As for the Liu family''s father and son, they have been scared silly. What has become a masterpiece since then? If there are no people, it will be a masterpiece. He didn''t expect that the Mo family son would attack him regardless of his identity.


    "What do you think? Am I such a person?" Merton said angrily.


    "The young master means..." Mo Wu said carefully.


    "What I mean is that in front of the unique skills of Mo hospital, hanging silk pulse is a joke. From then on, the myth of hanging silk pulse will come to an end, and today''s display will become the last sound of hanging silk pulse." Merton said word by word.


    "Oh!"


    The people were relieved. They thought Merton was very murderous?


    "Mo family, you are arrogant. Hanging silk to diagnose pulse is the secret of our Liu family. It is the highest medical skill in the world. How dare Mo hospital tell such a big story." the Liu family''s father and son breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Merton didn''t bully others. They immediately heard Merton say that hanging silk to diagnose pulse is a joke, and immediately flew into a rage.


    "Young master!"


    Mo Wu worried that it was not ordinary medicine, but the legendary hanging silk pulse diagnosis! Although he is full of confidence in the young master and can face the legendary unique skills of doctors, he will inevitably feel guilty.


    "It''s arrogant!" Liu Licheng snorted coldly.


    He is not old, and it is when he is young and vigorous. Of course, Merton, who is still young and much more famous, is not pleasing to his eyes. Especially after Merton belittles his family''s hanging silk pulse, he feels that Merton has no real name.


    "Master Mo, although I admire you for bringing countless benefits to the people, I''m afraid you can''t speak such a big story because I''m afraid that even Hua Yuan will avoid fighting." Liu Mingcheng said proudly.


    "Hua Lao avoids fighting because Hua is always a real doctor. His time is spent saving lives, not afraid of fighting! I''m afraid of you. As for this challenge, I took it for Mo hospital!"


    "Wow!" Merton''s words immediately caused an uproar.


    They didn''t expect the twists and turns today. First, the Liu family''s father and son came to kick the hall, then the Mo hospital avoided the war, and finally the Mo family''s son took over the war post.


    "Ha ha!" Liu Mingcheng and his son laughed happily. He thought he would return without success today. He didn''t expect that the Mexican family son would be so reckless and let him get what he wanted.


    "Well, I didn''t expect that the famous Mohist is also a medical master. I''m really out of my sight." Liu Mingcheng held a hint.


    But Merton shook his head and said, "where can I learn medicine? It''s him who wants to give you a competition!"


    Merton pointed to the anxious ink five.


    "I!" Mo Wu was stunned and shook his head quickly. "No, no, I''m just an apprentice. Old Hua said I haven''t learned and can''t practice medicine!"


    "Doctor!" the crowd exclaimed.


    It''s absurd for a medical apprentice to face a famous doctor with the unique skill of hanging silk to diagnose pulse.


    Well, it''s a pity that the myth of Mo hospital will be destroyed once!


    Everyone doesn''t think Mo Wu is likely to win. This time, Mo Jiazi will become a black sheep.


    Only Qin Huaiyu was very excited. He didn''t worry about Merton at all. He looked like watching the excitement.


    Qin Huaiyu shouted excitedly, "Merton is going to make a big deal again."


    These bad friends also know Merton''s character. Whenever Merton deliberately makes unexpected things, Merton is going to do things. It seems that he is doing things in the doctor this time, and hanging wire pulse diagnosis has unfortunately become a target.


    Mo Wu was almost crying. He said to Merton with a sad face: "young master, I can''t. If I lose, the reputation of Mo hospital will be destroyed in my hands!"


    Mo Wu knows how much effort Hua Lao has devoted to Mo hospital. If Hua Lao comes out and finds that the signboard of Mo hospital has been smashed by himself, it''s good. He has to be expelled from the school.


    "Don''t worry, if other doctors come, I still have three concerns, but hang the silk to feel the pulse... Ha ha! As long as you use the two things I made for old Hua, you can win!" Merton said.


    "Seriously!" Mo Wu said suspiciously.


    "When did the young master cheat you? As long as you can win today, the young master promises that you will become a real doctor tomorrow." Merton seduced.


    "But!..." Mo Wu was still skeptical.


    "Just say whether you want to practice medicine or not!" Merton threw out the last straw to overwhelm the camel.


    "Think!" Mo Wu nodded heavily.


    "Master Mo is sure to compete with this young man. I''m afraid I won''t win!" Liu Mingcheng said.


    "He is a disciple of Hua Lao," said Merton in a positive tone.


    Suddenly, many people looked at Mo Wu with envy. You know, in this era, passing on disciples represents inheriting master''s mantle in the future. It can be imagined that Mo Wu''s future achievements must be unlimited.


    "OK, that''s it. Licheng, you''ll come to meet the master of the Chinese miracle doctor." Liu Mingcheng nodded. The title of Hua Lao''s own disciple is enough.


    "Yes! Father!" Liu Licheng said.


    "But since it''s a competition, you have to win or lose. Please give a witness to it." Liu Licheng arched around.


    "Well, Doctor Liu, don''t worry. How can we miss such a grand event!" the doctors in the major medical centers around us said repeatedly.


    "Hum! You are all here to trouble Mo hospital. It''s hard for me to say whether you can handle affairs impartially." Qin Huaiyu shouted aside.


    "Yes!"


    Watching the excitement, the Imperial College crowd, led by Chumo, also clamored.


    Liu Ming had a headache when he was finished. These were the students of the Imperial College. He couldn''t do anything about them


    At this time, a voice, although not big, clearly spread all over everyone''s ears.


    "No, how about I give you a witness?"


    With the sound, I saw an old man with a childlike face and Hefa coming out of the crowd.


    "Your Excellency is," Liu Mingcheng said suspiciously.


    "Old man Sun Simiao!"

 Chapter 126

    "Sun Simiao!"


    Many people are confused. Why is this man famous?


    But Merton, Liu family and his son and other doctors were shocked when they heard the speech and looked at the old man in front of them.


    "Who is Sun Simiao? Is he famous?" Qin Huaiyu asked suspiciously.


    "That''s the miracle doctor Sun Simiao!" Mo Wuyi said admiringly.


    "Miracle doctor! What a big breath, more powerful than Hua Lao?" Chumo doesn''t believe it.


    "It''s different," Mo Wu shook his head and said, "old Hua is good at surgery and orthopedics, while doctor sun is different. He is a general practitioner and is best at gynecology and pediatrics."


    In Mo Wu''s intermittent narration, Qin Huaiyu and others looked at Sun Simiao with a shocked face.


    In the former dynasty, he refused the recruitment of Dr. Guozijian, once healed the empress changsun, and again refused Li Shimin''s solicitation. He has a great reputation among the people and is honored as the king of medicine by later generations.


    "You mean he''s over ninety years old." Zu Mingjun couldn''t believe it. He looked at the old man who was moving freely and walking fast. If he was 50 or 60 years old, someone would believe it!


    When the people around learned about Sun Simiao''s deeds, they were also in an uproar and respected one after another.


    "Doctor sun!"


    The people immediately shouted. Among them, the woman with body deficiency had the loudest voice. She didn''t expect another more powerful miracle doctor. This time, her disease had hope again.


    "Mohist Merton has seen doctor sun. I don''t know if doctor sun can''t meet me. Please forgive me!" Merton hurried forward.


    Merton worships Sun Simiao very much. There are too many legends about Sun Simiao, both legends and historical facts.


    "Lord Mo is very polite. Although I heard about Lord Mo''s help to the doctors just after I arrived in Chang''an, I take the liberty to come and bother!" Sun Simiao said politely.


    Sun Simiao was obsessed with medicine all his life. For this reason, he refused to be called up by the imperial court for many times. This time, when he came to Chang''an, he suddenly found that the medical community in Chang''an had made rapid progress, which made him a little overwhelmed.


    First, the proposal of oxygen brightened his eyes, then the Mexican hospital sprung up and opened a new model of the medical school, and the devastating blow of the official ink Journal on the witch doctor made him feel that he couldn''t keep up with the steps, so once he arrived in Chang''an City, he couldn''t wait to come to the Mexican hospital to see what the Mexican hospital was like, I didn''t expect to meet a good play just now.


    "Doctor sun, you are also an expert in hanging wire pulse diagnosis. Mohist children openly despise hanging wire pulse diagnosis. You should be fair!" Liu Mingcheng was overjoyed when he saw Sun Simiao. He might not be able to deal with Huayuan, but if Sun Simiao came forward, he would win this time.


    "Not good! Doctor sun is also a master of hanging silk to diagnose the pulse. She once treated empress Chang sun with the unique skill of hanging silk to diagnose the pulse. This is going to happen." Mo Wu''s face turned pale.


    Unexpectedly, Sun Simiao was not angry, but looked at Merton lightly and said, "hanging silk to diagnose pulse is one of the unique skills of doctors. Every doctor who can hang silk to diagnose pulse is a long-term practitioner and can only show his knowledge of pulse. It is not how to get hanging silk to diagnose pulse, but it represents that a doctor''s grasp of pulse has reached the peak."


    "What Dr. Sun said is even true insight!"


    Sun Simiao''s words immediately aroused the nod of many doctors, which is also the reason why they are willing to believe the Liu family and their son.


    "But it''s too difficult to reach the hanging silk pulse. How many people can reach the hanging silk pulse in the whole Tang Dynasty? I''m looking forward to the unique skills of the Mohist school!" Sun Simiao said fairly.


    "I''m sure I won''t let doctor sun down!" Merton said confidently.


    "Hum!" Liu Mingcheng and his son tit for tat.


    The onlookers looked forward to it. It was the tripartite gathering of the highest representatives of Datang medicine, not to mention the reputation of hanging wire pulse diagnosis with the highest medical achievements.


    "Doctor sun, please!"


    Merton invited Sun Simiao to sit in the chair, and Liu Mingcheng and Mo Wu sat on both sides.


    Seeing this scene, many Guozi prison students couldn''t help twitching in the corners of their mouths, which was also a means of famous experts.


    The rules of the competition are very simple. A patient is diagnosed by Mo Wu and Liu Licheng in turn, and finally handed over to Sun Simiao to judge the outcome.


    Originally, Sun Simiao wanted to ask the doctors in other medical schools to be judges together, but these doctors delayed one after another. To tell the truth, they really didn''t have the courage to sit with Sun Simiao. There was no way, so Sun Simiao had to give up.


    "I''ll come!" the young woman with congenital deficiency of Qi and blood rushed up first.


    "Miss! As like as two peas, this is a congenital disease and it needs long-term conditioning." Liu Licheng concluded with his father''s pulse with a wire.


    The young woman nodded. She didn''t respond much to the result. She got up silently and went directly to Mo Wu.


    "Primary school apprentice, show me quickly. I''m still waiting for doctor sun''s diagnosis and treatment." the young woman didn''t put her hope on Mo Wu at all, but her last hope was on Sun Simiao.


    Mo Wu nodded awkwardly, picked up a cloth like thing and tied it to the young woman''s arm.


    "Primary school apprentice, will you make a diagnosis and treatment? These things fool me!" the young woman saw Mo Wu take out something, and immediately became angry. The angry cry spread all over the audience and immediately attracted the attention of the audience.


    "What''s the matter?" the whole audience immediately focused on Mo Wu''s table.


    There was a rectangular box in front of Mo Wu''s table. Several tubes were extended from the box, and rectangular cloth strips were tied to the woman''s arm.


    "What is this?"


    The crowd looked at the strange thing.


    "This is a sphygmomanometer, which was specially developed by the Mohists to measure the strength of blood vessels for the Mohist hospital." Merton said in a high voice. In fact, this is only the most common sphygmomanometer in later generations, which is different from the exquisite sphygmomanometer in later generations. This is only the most primary sphygmomanometer, and it is purely manual.


    "Sphygmomanometer! A device for measuring the strength of blood vessels." as soon as the faces of the doctors changed, the main purpose of holding the pulse was to detect the strength of the pulse, but this kind of pulse holding skill could not be achieved without three or five years of skill, but the sphygmomanometer in front of them was different, and the operation was simple. Even a small doctor could easily operate it.


    "Interesting!" Sun Simiao nodded with interest. Unexpectedly, mojiazi did not disappoint him. As soon as he made a move, he directly left a doctor for three years, which was a great achievement in promoting medicine.


    "I knew it was like this!" Qin Huaiyu and others said excitedly.


    They also know Merton''s roots. Of course, they know Merton''s pee. Since Merton was about to be the Liu family''s father and son, they guessed that Merton must have a card. That''s true.

 Chapter 127

    Hearing Merton''s explanation, the young woman let go of her guard and asked Mo Wu to start measuring.


    "Eh!"


    Mo Wu repeatedly looked at the value of the sphygmomanometer and measured it several times.


    Then he took out a strange thing and hung it around his neck. One end of his neck was buckled on his ear, and the other end let the woman stick to his chest.


    "This is a stethoscope! It can expand the sound of breathing and heartbeat of the human body more than a hundred times, which is more conducive to the doctor''s judgment of the disease."


    Without waiting for the doctors present to ask questions, Merton took the initiative to explain the stethoscope''s debut in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Expand to more than a hundred times!"


    Sun Simiao was shocked when he heard the speech. Compared with the monotonous tool of sphygmomanometer, stethoscope is of great use.


    We should know that the essence of traditional Chinese medicine is the four diagnostic methods, that is, looking, smelling and asking. This smell is listening to breathing. If this stethoscope can magnify the smell more than a hundred times, it will be of great help to the diagnosis of the disease.


    Sun Simiao was immediately overjoyed. Of course, with his insight, he knew that these two things were great news for doctors. Previous doctors'' diagnosis was based on experience. If these tools were added, the accuracy of diagnosis would be greatly improved.


    Perhaps the function of sphygmomanometer is too monotonous to compare with pulse cutting, but sphygmomanometer has incomparable advantages, that is, an ordinary apprentice can operate it.


    The stethoscope in front of us is an artifact that even a peerless famous doctor like Sun Simiao is moved by.


    "What''s more difficult is that neither of them let the doctor


    Contact with the human body is more convenient for the diagnosis of women. "Merton threw another shocking role.


    "Ah!"


    Liu Mingcheng and his son immediately looked embarrassed. The biggest customers of hanging silk to diagnose pulse were some expensive women. These women were very conservative and generous. Liu''s medical school made a fortune because of this.


    Now, MOH hospital has launched stethoscope and sphygmomanometer, which directly flattens the greatest advantage of hanging wire for pulse diagnosis.


    The doctors in many medical schools immediately thought about it. As doctors, they are most difficult when women are ill. Although doctors are worried about their parents, the defense between men and women is also very serious in this era, especially in Chang''an City, there are famous families and nobles everywhere. These noble families especially like this.


    After all, not every doctor would hang a thread to check the pulse, and a large number of customers went to Liu''s hospital,


    If our own hospital can also have sphygmomanometers and stethoscopes, it will not double the number of visitors in the future, at least by more than 50%.


    "I don''t know how much these stethoscopes and sphygmomanometers cost. Can you sell them to us?" Zhang Ling, a sitting doctor in zhangjiayi hospital, couldn''t help asking.


    Liu''s father and son immediately looked at the traitor angrily. He was the one who shouted slogans to support him. Now he saw that the wind direction was wrong and immediately defected.


    Zhang Ling didn''t care about the glare of the Liu family''s father and son. When Mo hospital didn''t rise, the Zhang family medical school and the Liu family medical school were sworn enemies. However, the Liu family''s father and son pressed the Zhang family with the hanging wire for pulse diagnosis. Now the opportunity for the Zhang family has come. The emergence of stethoscope and sphygmomanometer made Zhang Ling aware of the end of the hanging wire for pulse diagnosis.


    However, Liu''s father and son didn''t have time to find Zhang Ling''s trouble. Merton''s words made him like being struck by thunder.


    "Sell! It''s impossible now. We''ll have to wait until the Mexican hospital is fully equipped, but when everyone here is leaving, everyone will give a set of sphygmomanometer and stethoscope."


    "Thank you, master Mo!" Zhang Ling and other doctors thanked one after another.


    Even Sun Simiao showed a satisfied smile. He is good at gynecology and pediatrics. Of course, he also knows the biggest problem of women''s treatment at present.


    Only the Liu family and their son were embarrassed for a while. Seeing that the Mohist family said that this thing seems to be capable of mass production, doesn''t it mean that their own hanging silk pulse is no longer the only choice for rich and noble women.


    "Don''t be complacent too early. It''s unknown whether these two things are useful. Maybe they won''t help diagnose the disease!" Liu Mingcheng snorted.


    The people immediately stagnated, but they immediately put this worry behind them. With the legendary deeds of Mozi in the past, this kind of thing can''t be fake at all, not to mention being used right now? Is it true or false. It will be known soon.


    Mo Wu was driven to the shelves to practice medicine for the first time. He was nervous. In order to be afraid of making mistakes, he measured it several times in a row.


    "Does the girl usually have a headache and dizziness, get up tired and weak in the morning, and have a faint pain in her heart?" Mo Wu asked.


    "Yes, yes! The secret pain in the heart and mouth is recent." the woman nodded repeatedly.


    Mo Wu thought for a while and said definitely, "girl, you are not ill. These symptoms are just caused by low blood pressure, that is, hypotension!"


    "Low blood pressure? Little doctor, do you know any medical skills? How can you make arbitrary diagnosis and treatment!" Liu Mingcheng was ecstatic and shouted.


    All the doctors were in an uproar. None of them had read enough medical books and had never heard of the disease of low blood pressure.


    However, the woman is not angry at the moment. She has heard enough of the long-term conditioning of other doctors. Now she finally has a different diagnosis and treatment, and can easily and accurately tell her symptoms.


    "Then you say how to treat it and what medicine to take." the woman asked.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "you don''t need to take medicine. As long as you keep practicing Wuqinxi for an hour every day, you will be able to improve the girl''s symptoms in the long run."


    "Hypotension is obviously a disease of body deficiency. If Wuqinxi can cure the disease of body deficiency, it is the biggest joke in the world." Liu Licheng sneered, and he was absolutely confident in his judgment.


    "Please let doctor sun preside over justice!" Liu Mingcheng and his son sang and cooperated very tacitly.


    "Doctor sun!" the woman looked forward to reaching out to Sun Simiao.


    Sun Simiao put his finger on it, carefully cut the pulse for the woman, and asked the woman about her usual symptoms and the drugs she had taken in the past.


    After a long time, Sun Simiao nodded and said, "it is indeed a disease of body deficiency."


    "Hahaha!" the Liu family''s father and son laughed wildly.


    Mo Wu suddenly looked depressed and looked at Mo ton at a loss.


    "It''s okay! You have to trust your own judgment!" Merton encouraged.


    "Believe in yourself, even doctor Sun said it was a disease of physical deficiency. You still don''t know how to repent. Little doctor, you''d better learn more years!" Liu Mingcheng said proudly.


    Sun Simiao nodded and said, "this is indeed the disease of body deficiency. We don''t know why the disease of body deficiency began all the time. Now we finally have a conclusion, that is hypotension!"


    "Er, ER!" the Liu family''s father and son immediately choked like a male goose strangled at the neck.


    Mo Wu was overwhelmed by ecstasy. His first practice of medicine was recognized by Sun Simiao. He was so excited that he couldn''t help himself.


    Other people in the hospital were also surprised and couldn''t believe looking at Mo Wu and Sun Simiao. They have no doubt about Sun Simiao''s position and medical skills. After all, Sun Simiao''s position is there.


    They were surprised by Mo Wu and the magical sphygmomanometer and stethoscope in his hand.


    The next scene completely shocked all the people. Several consecutive patients came on stage. Mo Wu and Liu Licheng took turns to fight, but the result was a big drop in the eyes.


    A little medical apprentice, with a simple sphygmomanometer and stethoscope in his hand, did not lose the wind in diagnosing the pulse. Everyone was aware of a serious problem.


    The magical performance of sphygmomanometer and stethoscope, coupled with the fact that it does not allow doctors to contact the human body, makes female patients have no worries at home. From then on, I''m afraid that hanging wire pulse diagnosis will really become a great noise.

 Chapter 128

    In the legislative palace.


    Empress Chang sun lay on the soft couch. A layer of white gauze separated the inside and outside of the soft couch, revealing only a pale wrist outside.


    "Today is not a hanging silk pulse, please tie it to the Queen''s arm." Sun Simiao took out the sphygmomanometer, immediately received it by the maid in waiting, and tied it to the arm of empress Chang sun according to Sun Simiao''s instructions.


    Merton hurried forward to operate and simply recorded the blood pressure of the eldest grandson queen.


    Just after Merton used the stethoscope to directly crush the hanging wire of the Liu family''s father and son to feel his pulse, before he had time to say a few words with Sun Simiao, he was blocked by pound who heard the news and asked Sun Simiao to go into the palace immediately and recheck the empress Chang sun.


    It turned out that the purpose of Sun Simiao''s coming to Chang''an this time was to return to the doctor for Empress Chang sun.


    However, Sun Simiao asked Merton to help on the grounds of operating a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope.


    Facing Pound''s invitation, Merton felt that he took up the instrument as a small attendant and followed Sun Simiao to the palace.


    "Low blood pressure!" said Merton, frowning at the blood pressure.


    Sun Simiao nodded, took out a stethoscope and asked the maid in waiting to put it on the chest of empress Chang sun.


    "Please take a deep breath!"


    "Hoo!"


    Empress Chang Sun took a deep breath and exhaled.


    Merton frowned. Even if he was not a doctor, he could hear it through the white gauze. The eldest Sun Queen''s breathing was very problematic, short and rapid, mixed with a trace of noise.


    Sun Simiao''s face was dignified and listened carefully for a long time before he put down the stethoscope.


    "Doctor sun, how''s the Queen''s condition?"


    As soon as Sun Simiao withdrew from empress Chang sun''s room, Li Shimin surrounded him.


    "Thanks to the stethoscope of Mo hospital this time, I have a preliminary grasp of empress Chang sun." Sun Simiao took an incredible look at Mo dun. The stethoscope was really magical, and the slightly inaudible sound in the human body was like in his ear.


    With the stethoscope judgment, it was with the stethoscope judgment that he had a detailed diagnosis of the condition of empress Chang sun, and his grasp of medication increased by three points.


    Although these three points will be immeasurably helpful to the condition of empress Chang sun.


    "Stethoscope?"


    Li Shimin has long seen that Sun Simiao gave up hanging silk to diagnose his pulse and used two strange instruments. Because he didn''t personally contact the empress Chang sun, plus his trust in Sun Simiao, Li Shimin didn''t disagree.


    Pound immediately told Li Shimin a simple story about the hanging wire pulse taking challenge to Mo hospital in front of Mo hospital.


    "This boy!" Li Shimin glared at Merton with hatred. He was speechless. This boy can toss too much. Now he has a good hanging wire to feel his pulse, and he has become a laughing stock by this guy.


    In fact, the real big user of hanging silk pulse is the royal family, especially in the harem. The imperial doctor treats the concubines and princesses of the harem. It''s like walking on thin ice and there are many taboos.


    Merton''s practice has become a laughing stock for the royal family''s pulse diagnosis and treatment in recent years.


    Merton is also helpless in the face of unreasonable Li Er. He can''t help shrinking his head. At this time, he''d better hide.


    "Well, according to this prescription, the Queen''s illness will be greatly improved. Walking around more on weekdays and Wuqinxi will be very helpful to the Queen''s illness." Sun Simiao''s voice sounded and saved Merton once.


    "Wuqinxi!" Li Shimin nodded, then grabbed the prescription, didn''t look at it, and even said, "come on, quickly decoct the medicine for the empress."


    The imperial doctor came immediately, took the prescription and hurried away.


    "Doctor sun worked hard." Li Shimin greeted Sun Simiao with a smile.


    "Your Majesty is polite. The grass people just do their duty as doctors!" Sun Simiao waved his hand and said.


    "I''m very moved that Dr. Sun can come thousands of miles to treat the queen this time. He is the best doctor in the world. He should be of great use. I want to seal the order of the supreme doctor and take charge of the supreme hospital."


    The imperial doctor''s order on one side was stiff. The external part of his imperial doctor''s order was well done. Now he can''t keep his position. It''s between the thoughts of others.


    "Dr. Sun''s medical skills are profound, and Wei Chen is also greatly admired. As long as Dr. Sun is willing to come to Taiyuan hospital, Wei Chen will voluntarily give up the imperial medical order." the imperial medical order is also an expert who drives the wind, and immediately made the most favorable decision for himself.


    "Don''t, your majesty. The grass people are people who are idle and wild cranes. How can they take charge of the Tai hospital?" Sun Simiao resolutely refused.


    Sun Simiao knew that once he stayed in Taiyuan hospital, high officials and high salaries would be indispensable, but he became a vassal of powerful people like being trapped in a cage, which was unacceptable to Sun Simiao who was bent on serving the world.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton was clearly relieved to hear the imperial doctor''s order, and couldn''t help but curl his lips. What''s good about the imperial doctor''s position? If you don''t pay attention, you''ll have to land your head. Those who are really good at medicine, such as Sun Simiao and Hua Lao, don''t want to be imperial doctors.


    Li Shimin was also powerless. The temptation of ordinary people, such as fame and wealth and prosperity, was a thing of the past in Sun Simiao''s eyes and was useless at all.


    Soon, the imperial doctor cooked the decoction. After the eldest Sun Queen took the medicine, her asthma was quickly controlled and fell asleep.


    "Grass people say goodbye!"


    Seeing that his diagnosis and treatment had ended, Sun Simiao got up and left.


    "I''ve arranged for another hospital. Please take a break from doctor sun and stay in Chang''an for a few more days. I hope doctor sun will pay more attention to the Queen''s condition." Li Shimin said.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. The grass people come to Chang''an this time. First, they come to see the queen again. Second, they want to visit Mo hospital and discuss medical skills together. They won''t leave Chang''an City in a short time." Sun Simiao said, but he didn''t refuse the other hospital arranged by Li Shimin. Unexpectedly, he also needs a place to stay in Chang''an city.


    "Oh! That''s nice! Merton, you should take good care of doctor sun. If anything happens, you''re the only one to ask." Li Shimin said with a look.


    "I will obey your orders!" Merton replied.


    "Pound, send doctor sun back to rest immediately. I''ll tell Merton, the bear child, to save him from neglecting doctor sun." Li Shimin looked at Merton and smiled like a wolf grandmother.


    "Me!"


    Merton could only watch Sun Simiao show his helpless expression, float away and leave himself under the clutches of Li Shimin.


    "Do you know why I left you here?" Li Shimin said faintly, looking at the back of Sun Simiao.


    Merton was silent for a moment, changed his head and said, "but for the Queen''s condition!"


    "That''s right! Now the only one who can cure the queen is doctor sun, and I have failed to retain doctor sun many times." Li Shimin couldn''t help showing tenderness when talking about the empress Chang sun.


    "I know you have many ghost ideas, and doctor sun is very interested in Mo hospital. I hope you will keep doctor sun in Chang''an no matter what method you use."

 Chapter 129

    "Whoa!"


    A gorgeous carriage pulled by four horses who were dark without a trace of miscellaneous hair stopped at the door of Mo hospital.


    "What a handsome horse!"


    The people around marveled. I don''t know how many carriages come to Mo hospital every day, but there are four horses of the same color.


    The carriage body is all made of precious wood, with exquisite patterns and carvings.


    As soon as the curtain was lifted, a fairy old man refused the coachman''s help and came down from the carriage easily.


    "Doctor sun!"


    Merton, who had already been waiting at the gate of the hospital, greeted him.


    "Lord Mo! Doctor sun will be handed over to you. You should treat doctor sun well!" pound winked at Merton beside the carriage and motioned him not to forget the emperor''s instructions.


    "Please rest assured, Mr. Pang, that you will complete the task!" Merton punted.


    "Doctor sun, this way, please." Merton invited.


    "Doctor sun!"


    The people on one side called one after another. After the competition in Mo hospital yesterday, Sun Simiao''s name completely resounded through Chang''an city.


    "Thank you, Lord Mo!" Sun Simiao nodded to the people around him.


    "Dr. Sun is a bad boy! Call me Merton, and I''ll call you sun Lao!" Merton said. Calling Dr. Sun directly is too important and is not conducive to the relationship. How can we complete the task assigned by Li Er.


    Sun Simiao nodded and followed Merton to the gate of the hospital.


    "Brother sun, I came from a long way. Hua had several emergency patients yesterday. Please forgive me for not being able to meet them far." old Hua stood at the gate of Mo hospital and arched his hands to Sun Simiao.


    "Brother Hua, you''re welcome. The witch doctor has done a lot of harm to others. Brother Hua''s efforts to eliminate the harm of the witch doctor are really admired by sun." Sun Simiao said from the bottom of his heart.


    As early as Sun Simiao''s arrival in Chang''an City, he had finished reading all the issues in one issue. Hua Lao''s article was the top priority, and Sun Simiao repeatedly lamented that the new thing of Ink magazine was too great for the promotion of medicine. He also received patients who were deeply harmed by witch doctors and appealed for the harm of witch doctors, but the effect was very little, but Hua Lao gently wrote an article, Kill the witch doctor like a stubborn disease.


    "That''s the devil''s idea of Morton." old Hua smiled complacently. He was very proud of being able to eliminate the black sheep of the witch doctor.


    "The great name of the Mohist school, Sun Mou is as far away as Wutai Mountain, and it''s like thunder!" Sun Simiao said with a smile.


    "If you boast again, you should be proud! Let the boy lead you to visit the Mexican hospital!" Merton said.


    "Long awaited!" Sun Simiao said.


    "Ink hospital has 56 doctors and more than 200 apprentices, and the number of patients reaches 1000 every day." Merton reported a figure that made Sun Simiao smack his tongue.


    "OK, Merton, I want to thank the Mohists for their support to doctors!" Sun Simiao sighed as he looked at the crowded Mohist hospital.


    Before the emergence of MOH hospital, most of those hospitals were family workshops. They found a small shop near the street, where they filled the medicine and saw the doctor. The area is small. Usually there are only one or two doctors and a few guys.


    Not to mention anything else, even Sun Simiao''s hospital is no better. Mohist hospital has created a new model for doctors, which makes Sun Simiao see the hope of the rise of doctors, which is one of the reasons why Sun Simiao can''t wait to visit Mohist hospital.


    "Fifty six doctors are roughly divided into internal medicine and surgery according to their expertise, including orthopedics and dermatology..."


    The Mohist hospital gave Sun Simiao a glimpse of the detailed division of medicine. A doctor''s time and energy are limited. If he specializes in one subject, he can be called a doctor with exquisite medical skills in a short time.


    It is impossible to achieve in ordinary medical schools. Which one doesn''t use doctors as generalists. Only Mo hospital will be so extravagant to let a doctor specialize in one subject.


    "A doctor specializes in one subject, and a large number of medical experience and medical accumulation can make doctors grow rapidly, and the improvement of doctors'' medical skills can attract more patients," Sun Simiao sighed.


    He has understood the operation rules of Mexican hospital, which is a virtuous circle. For a long time, Mexican hospital must have more refined doctors and better reputation, and more patients will come from Mexico.


    Sun Simiao even saw a joint consultation of more than a dozen doctors. His accurate judgment was that he prescribed the medicine himself.


    "This is the inpatient department. Some seriously ill patients will be centrally arranged here by the Mexican hospital. Doctors and apprentices will take care of them continuously for 12 hours until the patients recover."


    "This is the emergency room. Doctors are on duty in turn. People are constantly on duty for 12 hours to rescue some emergency patients.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Sun Simiao was amazed when he visited the departments of the ink hospital. No wonder the ink hospital has made a reputation in Chang''an City during its time. It is that the ink hospital has achieved the best in all aspects.


    "This is the pharmacy of Mo hospital!"


    Merton pointed to the huge warehouse and introduced Sun Simiao.


    Where is the pharmacy! This is a medicine factory. Looking at the pharmacy that occupies five houses, I just feel that all my self-cultivation over the years has been wasted today. The ink hospital shocked him too much.


    "What do you think of brother sun?" asked old Hua with a smile.


    "It''s an eye opener! Brother Hua has pioneered a doctor." Sun Simiao sighed and praised.


    "Brother sun praised me wrongly. Hua was just a village doctor half a year ago. How can he have such great ability to create such a situation? These are the attention of Merton!" old Hua knew Merton''s task and deliberately led the topic to Merton.


    "Oh!" Sun Simiao looked at Merton in surprise.


    "Mohist hospital is the product of the cooperation between Mohists and doctors. Mohists rank ahead of doctors, not because of the title of Merton, but because Mohists have played an unparalleled role in it." Hua said with emotion.


    "These rules and regulations were made by the boy Merton. In addition to the stethoscope and sphygmomanometer that brother sun has seen, Hua won''t say more about their role. The prosthetics that first made the reputation of Mo hospital can only be made by skilled craftsmen in Mo Village. What makes Hua most happy is this."


    From a drawer in the pharmacy, old Hua took out a small bag wrapped in oil paper, took the hot water cup of the medicine grabbing doctor in the pharmacy, tore the bag to reveal the particles inside and poured it into it.


    "Brother sun, please look!" old Hua gently shook his glass and handed it to Sun Simiao.


    Sun Simiao took it in doubt, smelled it gently and said, "Cinnamon Twig, licorice... This is a medicine for treating wind cold."


    "Brother sun is indeed a medical master. When you smell it, you can tell that this medicine is indeed a medicine for treating wind cold. To be exact, this is only a medicine for treating wind cold. Did brother sun calculate how long it takes to boil a dose of medicine, and how long did Hua just use it?"


    Sun Simiao suddenly changed his face and said, "it takes at least half an hour to endure a pair of medicine, and brother Hua just had five breath."


    Obviously, Sun Simiao already knew what Hua Lao meant. Compared with directly grasping herbs and taking them home, this new drug is really too convenient. The Mexican hospital can succeed. Indeed, there are far-reaching reasons. Relying on the wonderful idea of the new drug alone, how many patients can choose the Mexican hospital.


    "Not only that? The dose of each package of new drugs is the same, which can enable doctors to use drugs more accurately, avoid some overdoses and too little, and is more conducive to treatment. This new drug is called ink medicine!" Hua Laodao.


    "Ink medicine!"


    As soon as Sun Simiao heard the name, he knew that it was Merton''s attention again. He couldn''t help but wonder: "as far as I know, Merton doesn''t seem to know medicine. How could he come up with such exquisite attention."


    Merton was shocked when he heard the speech. He knew that his play was a little too much. He turned his mind and said, "old sun, the boy thought of the attention to making ink medicine. On the one hand, he was tired of the trouble of decocting medicine, and on the other hand, he got a warning from an allusion."


    "Allusions? Tell me!" Sun Simiao said with great interest.


    "According to Mozi''s secret book, there was once a quack named Hutu! He once treated a patient with a kilo of Croton."


    "A kilo of Croton, you can''t eat dead people!"


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, Sun Simiao and Hua Lao exclaimed. Of course, they knew the efficacy of Croton and the power of a kilogram of Croton.


    Merton nodded and said, "as a result, the patient died the next day! The patient''s father reported to the official, and the county magistrate asked," didn''t you read the medical book when you took the medicine? Hutu said that I used Croton only after reading the medical book. The medical book said: Croton can''t be used lightly, that''s reuse, so I only used one kilogram.


    This is the boy''s inspiration for making ink medicine. The harm of overdose is too great. "


    "Good one, not easy to use!" Sun Simiao said angrily.

 Chapter 130

    "Don''t use it lightly!" old Hua looked embarrassed.


    The most important thing that Mohist hospital lacks is medical books. More than a dozen medical books are placed in front of Hua Lao. The narration about Croton is annotated and can not be used lightly.


    "Be careful with your medicine!" Sun Simiao said with deep thought.


    "Moreover, in the process of making medicine, the first time has the greatest drug effect. After that, the drug effect turns out to be less, which consumes more money and money. The uneven drug effect is not conducive to the improvement of the disease," Merton said.


    "Moreover, ink medicine makes the best use of the properties of medicinal materials to ensure the curative effect. At the same time, it is at least half cheaper in terms of price, so as to reduce the burden on patients."


    "Seriously?" Sun Simiao said in a surprised voice. He was highly cultivated. He couldn''t help being shocked when he heard the news.


    What is the biggest problem of seeing a doctor in Datang? On the one hand, it is the level of medical skills. On the other hand, it is that the cost of medicine is too expensive. After 20 years of hard work, it is not a modern joke to return to before liberation. In Datang, it is everywhere that the family is down because of illness.


    It would be the greatest gospel for ordinary people if we could reduce the cost of medicine by half.


    "Moreover, the Mohists are developing ink medicine that can be preserved for a long time. In this way, for some common minor diseases, patients only need to buy some medicine and take medicine at home on time." Merton said another advantage of ink medicine that people can''t refuse.


    Sun Simiao''s mind is floating. He has never been so excited. Today''s trip to Mo hospital has opened his eyes. He has been obsessed with medicine all his life and is determined to help the world.


    However, he found that he was poor for the patients he treated all his life. I''m afraid the Mexican hospital will leave them far behind in quantity soon.


    "It''s an eye opener to come to Chang''an this time! It''s really worth the trip." Sun Simiao sighed. Facing the fantastic ideas of Mohism, Sun Simiao was also amazed. Each of them played an inestimable role in the development of medicine.


    Hua Lao also looked at Merton with a happy face. Meeting Merton was the doctor''s greatest luck.


    Sun Simiao suddenly looked at Merton and said, "I heard that Mojia village implements free medical treatment in the whole village. I wonder if it is true."


    Few people can remember Sun Simiao in his position. When Sun Simiao first heard that the medical treatment in Mojia village was free, he firmly remembered Merton''s name.


    Doctors can help the world, but they can''t escape the most realistic problem, that is, there are always some people who can''t afford to see a disease and take medicine. Although Sun Simiao also exempted the medical expenses of patients for many times, 5000 people were exempted from seeing doctors and taking medicine all year round, which is nothing compared with that.


    "Brother sun misunderstood. Where is all medicine free? It''s just more than a dozen common diseases. The medical expenses are free," Hua explained.


    "This is only this year. In the future, Mojia village will increase the severity of free medical treatment year by year, and strive to achieve free medical treatment in the whole village within five years." Merton added another fire.


    "More than ten kinds of diseases are free, and the whole village will have free medical treatment within five years!"


    Hearing Merton''s words, Sun Simiao was not disappointed, but nodded his approval. If Merton immediately promised to free medical treatment in Mojia village, Sun Simiao would doubt it. However, Merton gradually increased, which confirmed that Merton sincerely wanted to realize free medical treatment in the whole village.


    "You young master! It''s a great blessing for Mojia village."


    Sun Simiao nodded again and again. The free medical model of Mojia village opened a new door for doctors. It was the Great Harmony World of doctors.


    "If you are poor, you will be alone, and if you reach the world, you will help the world! I don''t have such great ability. It''s the limit to protect people in a village." Merton sighed.


    "Enough!" Sun Simiao nodded.


    Although it is only a village, it points out the direction for doctors.


    "But in addition, there are a series of concessions in Mexico hospital, such as the half price medical treatment of the students of the Imperial College and the officials of Changan. The people in Changan city can pay for their treatment first if they take out their registered residence." Hua Lao put a gold on his face.


    "Oh!"


    Sun Simiao took an unexpected look at Merton.


    "If someone sees a disease, he really can''t pay for it?" Sun Simiao asked. When Sun Simiao meets this phenomenon at night, it is usually Sun Simiao who generously avoids medical expenses, and the purpose of Sun Simiao''s question is to see Merton''s character.


    "That''s easy. Mojia village is short of manpower. When you get well, you can work for Mojia village to pay off your debts!" Merton waved his big hand.


    "Hahaha, you are worthy of the MOH family. You don''t suffer any loss!" Sun Simiao said with a smile. Although this method was beyond his expectation, it really gave him the most satisfactory answer.


    Sun Simiao knows how valuable this is for some suffering families. Timely treatment is likely to save a family.


    "However, it''s strange to say that in recent months, no patient has defaulted after being cured." old Hua sighed.


    It turned out that when Merton insisted on implementing this system, Hua Lao was worried, but the final result surprised him. After each difficult patient was cured, he either made up the money quickly or went to work in Mojia village to pay off the debt.


    Sun Simiao repeatedly lamented that it is no wonder that the Mexican hospital has crowded the major medical centers in Chang''an city into a rout. Compared with the traditional small medical centers, the leading advantage of the Mexican hospital is too great.


    "Doctor Sun Simiao, thank you for the help of Mohist school!"


    Sun Simiao solemnly gave a big gift to Merton, which means that he recognized the model of Merton hospital.


    "Sun laozhesha boy." Merton hurriedly avoided.


    "No, I''ve been practicing medicine all my life, but I often feel difficult to walk. Today''s trip to Mo hospital makes me suddenly enlightened. It''s enough to hear that I die every day." Sun Simiao has a great meaning that there are successors and retire from the Jianghu.


    Merton was in a hurry. His task was to retain Sun Simiao. If Sun Simiao felt that there were successors from now on, he was ready to retire from the mountains and write books.


    "Old sun praised Mo hospital falsely, but the boy confirmed that Mo hospital has a big defect. If it is not solved, the doctor''s so-called hanging pot to help the world will probably be a joke." Merton said with a worried face and shrugged


    "Huh?"


    Sun Simiao and Hua Lao were stunned and looked at Merton incredulously. In their opinion, Merton hospital is already the most perfect state of doctors. Unexpectedly, there are great defects in Merton''s mouth.


    "What''s the defect?" old Hua said anxiously.


    MOH hospital is his painstaking work. He has such a big defect. Why didn''t you say it earlier, Merton?


    Looking at old Hua''s anxious look, Merton had to say sorry in his heart and bow his hands to the second old man: "since the opening of the Mexican hospital, the boy has given Mexican five a task, that is, to count the number of people seeking medical treatment."


    Sun Simiao and Hua Lao were puzzled and motioned Merton to continue.


    "However, the result surprised the boy. Among the people who went to see a doctor, 80% were men, while only 20% were women. For some diseases that need a doctor''s close examination, almost no women came to see a doctor. Most of them were men''s oral statements, and then the doctor wrote the medicine according to experience." Merton said with a heavy face.


    "What''s wrong with this?" Sun Simiao wondered. It seemed normal to him! That''s what he usually does when he sees a doctor.


    Old Hua smiled bitterly and said, "brother sun doesn''t know. At the beginning of the establishment of Mo hospital, in order to reduce disputes, in addition to signing a medical contract before treatment, there is an iron rule that doctors must diagnose and treat patients in person before prescribing drugs."


    "This......" Sun Simiao suddenly fell into a dilemma.


    On the one hand, there is nothing wrong with the practice of Mohist hospital. After all, doctors rely on oral statements rather than personal diagnosis and treatment, so there is a great possibility of misdiagnosis. But on the other hand, men and women are different, which is a problem that there is no way to solve.


    "In other words, as long as more than half of women are used, they can''t get timely symptomatic treatment or even no treatment after they get sick. Doctors call it hanging pot to help the world. If so many patients can''t be solved, how can they achieve hanging pot to help the world?" Merton said in one breath.


    "If you have an idea, just say it and don''t sell it off!" old Hua, who is familiar with Merton''s urination, said impolitely.


    "Female doctor!" Merton said simply.


    "Female doctor?" the second old man wondered.


    : Yes, if you want to completely solve this problem, you need to train female doctors! Only female doctors and female patients can completely solve this problem. The boy knows that old sun is good at gynecology and pediatrics! Please also ask old sun to train a group of excellent female doctors for doctors. "Merton arched his hand at Sun Simiao and finally showed his fox tail.


    "Yes!" said old Hua excitedly. All the problems were solved by using female doctors to treat female patients.


    "It''s not feasible! I also thought of this way. I once accepted ten female disciples and gave them money. As a result, they all abandoned medicine and taught their husband and children at home after they got married." Sun Simiao said in a low tone. Once a female disciple continued to practice medicine after marriage, but couldn''t stand the opposition of her husband''s family and gave up after only three months.


    "Alas!" old Hua also regretted that this was a good method, but it could not be implemented because of reality.


    "Really? In the boy''s opinion, it''s not difficult to implement female doctors?" Merton smiled.


    "Hum!"


    Old Hua snorted coldly, and Merton didn''t dare to sell off again.


    "The bustling world is for profit, and the bustling world is for profit. The reason why there are few female doctors is that they are driven by lack of interest. The boy wants to ask Mr. Hua how much he is willing to offer if there is a female doctor who has obtained the true biography of Mr. Sun''s Department of gynaecology." Merton asked


    "A hundred dollars a month!" Hua Lao said without hesitation. This is the salary of Hua Lao himself and the highest salary of Mo hospital.


    "Hiss!" Sun Simiao took a breath. Of course, he knew how rich the monthly salary was. It was comparable to the salary of the top five officials. I''m afraid not many people could resist such temptations.


    "Even if there is a rich salary to attract female doctors, I''m afraid a woman will have to bear a lot of gossip." Sun Simiao said another worry.


    "It''s not difficult. The Mexican hospital will be an independent hospital for female doctors to practice medicine. All doctors, apprentices and miscellaneous workers are women.


    In addition, if sun Lao is willing to undertake this great task, Merton is willing to speak personally to his majesty and grant the title of female doctor. It is not impossible to be knighted in the future? "


    Having money and status, and completely sealing up gossip, Merton threw out a big cake that Sun Simiao couldn''t refuse.


    Looking at Sun Simiao''s brighter and brighter eyes, Merton knew that the immortal figure was also moved.

 Chapter 131

    (written late, 3300 words)


    "Female doctor? Is that your idea? And doctor sun agreed?"


    Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously. He knew it was so simple. He should have kept Sun Simiao long ago.


    Merton nodded affirmatively. It''s not too late. Merton waited until Sun Simiao nodded and immediately went into the palace to report the matter to Li Shimin.


    "Your Majesty, you think that the worldly glory, wealth, fame and wealth of an immortal like sun Lao are like passing clouds. The only thing that can make him excited is to carry forward medicine, and the promotion of female doctors is sun Lao''s wish." Merton said.


    Li Shimin could not help nodding, which he deeply agreed with. Sun Simiao was indeed indifferent to fame and wealth, and even disdained to take care of the position of the imperial medical order.


    "It''s better to give fish than to give fish. Your majesty, imagine how much help it would be to the Queen''s condition if a female doctor with the true biography of sun followed her and took close care of her anytime and anywhere!" Merton said a reason that Li Shimin couldn''t refuse.


    As soon as Li Shimin''s eyes lit up, he couldn''t help nodding. The essence of traditional Chinese medicine is to feel the pulse. No matter how mysterious it is, no one knows that it can''t be compared with feeling the pulse.


    "Boy, through the Queen''s illness and the statistics of Mohist hospital, I found that there are too few female doctors in Datang! Mohist hospital has a high monthly salary and can''t ask for an excellent female doctor." Merton said.


    "A hundred dollars a month?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but smack his tongue. Isn''t it that his annual salary is 1200 dollars, and he can achieve ten thousand dollars in ten years.


    "The boy took this as a breakthrough and persuaded sun Lao to imitate the official school and set up a women''s medical school to teach women''s medical skills and train women doctors. Sure enough, sun Lao agreed to this!"


    "Good, good idea!" Li Shimin thought more and more and thought it was feasible! Even if Sun Simiao is retained, after all, men and women are different, and sometimes it is really inconvenient. However, if we cultivate a batch of excellent female doctors, all problems will be solved. After all, in addition to the empress Chang sun, there are 3000 beauties in his harem who need female doctors. The market demand of the imperial palace alone is great.


    so what?


    Merton waited for a long time, but he didn''t see Li Shimin''s following. He looked at Li Shimin helplessly. He wanted the horse to run and didn''t give the horse grass. There''s nothing so cheap in the world.


    Li Shimin could not help but get a long face. He also felt that he had done something wrong. He thought to himself, "there is a mansion beside the Imperial College. It''s not too small. It can be used for minor repairs."


    "Your Majesty, what really causes the scarcity of female doctors is not the lack of places, but the source of students." Merton told Li Shimin about the experience of several female disciples of Sun Simiao in detail.


    "That husband''s family is really hateful!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    "On the one hand, few families are willing to let women appear in public, on the other hand, few women in the Tang Dynasty can read, let alone learn medical skills." Merton said the biggest dilemma of female doctors.


    Li Shimin was also at a loss. Although the folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were open, the Zhenguan period was relatively conservative. Although some women came out to work, they were all small families.


    But it''s hard to find a woman who can read and understand medical books. Even if she does, it''s not certain whether she is willing to study medicine or not?


    "If your majesty can issue a decree to officially affirm the status of women doctors and give policy support, all problems will be solved!" Merton said.


    The most fundamental problem is that women''s social status is low, their literacy rate is low, their medical education is rare, and they have no right to make independent decisions. When they are not married, their parents are in charge, and after they are married, their husbands are in charge, which can dominate the fate of women doctors.


    "Policy support?"


    Although Li Shimin heard the word for the first time, he still easily understood the meaning of Merton.


    "What''s the difficulty? As long as it can really solve the problem of female doctors, I don''t want to set up another female hospital, but how about being knighted." Li Shimin said arrogantly.


    Li Shimin was not worried that the three provinces could not pass the decree. Although the cause of this time was the condition of empress Chang sun, which official dared to say that he could not use a female doctor?


    "Thank you, your majesty, for understanding the great cause!" Merton said happily.


    With the official support, the status of women doctors will be improved and they will have more autonomy, which is bound to attract more women to study medicine. At this time, his promise to Sun Simiao has been fulfilled and Li Shimin''s task has been completed.


    "Your Majesty, since the women''s medical college is also supported by the imperial court, the funding problem..." Merton righteously asked for money.


    "Funds?" Li Shimin couldn''t help raising his voice. "Since the Mexican hospital can hire female doctors with a monthly salary, it must not lack this fund. I heard that the Mexican hospital is making great progress every day!"


    Li Shimin''s meaning is very simple. He wants site to site, policy to policy, and money! A while ago, I almost emptied the national treasury for drought relief. If I don''t give you an idea, you''ll laugh!


    "Small money, it''s all the hard money of some doctors!" Merton heard Li Shimin''s threatening tone, quickly confessed to counseling, and paid out of his own pocket.


    He thought that Li Shimin was rare to be generous, but he was still stingy. However, if women doctors can run it this time, the Mexican hospital will benefit the most. Once women doctors join, the Mexican hospital will further expand.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In order to be safe, the front page of the new issue of Ink magazine specially published the enrollment information of women''s Medical College in bold characters.


    "It''s nonsense. How can a woman show up to see a doctor?" Liu Mingcheng angrily photographed the newspaper on the table.


    "It''s ridiculous for women to practice medicine!" Liu Licheng looked contemptuous when he saw the title in the Liu family medical school.


    It is reasonable to say that they are now dead enemies with the Mohists. They didn''t want to subscribe to the Mohist periodicals, but they can''t stand the demands of the people who came to see a doctor. As long as they stop, on the one hand, they also want to know themselves and the enemy and further understand the dynamics of the Mohist hospital.


    "Unexpectedly, the emperor personally ordered the women''s medical college to be run. After learning, she was granted the position of female doctor." a patient suddenly exclaimed with an ink journal.


    "Hmm?" the Lius father and son were shocked and looked down quickly. They immediately saw the decree issued by Li Shimin, not only the female doctor, but also the title if they have good medical skills.


    "How could it be so?" the Liu family''s father and son were more and more shocked.


    "Taught by Dr. Sun himself, it is not only free of tuition fees, but also a meal allowance of 100 Wen a month, and such good things." someone exclaimed


    Another person said, "what''s this? Look at the following one. As long as you get the approval of doctor sun and graduate, the Mexican hospital will take all the orders, and the maximum monthly salary will be 100%?"


    "Hiss!"


    Suddenly, there was a sound of cold breath, hundreds of times a month, that year, five years? This account will be calculated. Such a huge wealth may not be earned by several generations. Now the opportunity comes. All this is possible as long as you support your daughter to go to women''s medical school.


    "And this one!" someone said excitedly.


    "Learn medicine for filial piety! For all female doctors, their mothers, including biological mothers or adoptive mothers and mother-in-law, see a doctor in Mo hospital, and the drug fee is free!"


    "Well, if the daughter-in-law of whose family studies medicine, she won''t have to worry for the rest of her life?" they thought and envied.


    Merton knows that in this era, the greatest pressure for women may come from their mother-in-law''s family. With this policy, we can minimize the pressure of their mother-in-law''s family and liberate female doctors as much as possible.


    "Mo hospital!" the Liu family''s father and son sighed. Originally, he still felt that he was not convinced by the defeat of Mo hospital, but when he saw the news of women''s medical school, he realized how big the gap between Liu family''s medical school and Mo hospital was. The Liu family still focused on their own little gains and losses, and the Mo family had already laid out the world, and the pattern gap was too big.


    In the champion building.


    Master Yu strongly supports the ink magazine business. Almost every table has one ink magazine, and there are sorted previous ink magazines on the wall table for visitors to read.


    "Old fish! Do you think what this ink magazine says is true?" a regular guest of the No. 1 scholar''s building shouted to master fish.


    "Lao Xu! If I didn''t know your temper, I would give you a gesture with a fish killing knife. As long as the news published by the Mohist School deceives you, you can light my champion building with a fire." master fish patted his chest.


    "Yes, yes! There''s nothing to say about the reputation of Mohism!" the surrounding diners nodded one after another.


    "Don''t be angry, old fish. I''m just kidding," old Xu Lian hurriedly took out the silver from his arms and slapped it heavily on the table.


    "Check out, don''t change the extra!" Xu said aggressively, got up and went out.


    "You haven''t finished yet. Why are you going?" the companion asked hurriedly.


    "When I go home, I don''t want to marry my daughter so early. I just let her go to study medicine and find a good mother-in-law in the future!" Xu has a good calculation. If I really learn to become a female doctor, just the title of a female doctor and the high salary of MOH hospital, let alone filial piety medicine, my daughter can choose to marry a good family.


    Thanks to the previous reports of Mexican magazine on marriage and early marriage, many families have chosen to postpone their daughter''s marriage, resulting in many unmarried girls of school age waiting in the boudoir. These are excellent students!


    "Wait for me, I''ll let my daughter try," the companion got up and said without thinking about eating.


    Xu looked contemptuously at his companion and said, "can your daughter read?"


    "Let her learn now. Besides, isn''t there still a female nurse? Although it''s not as good as a female doctor, it''s enough for my stupid daughter to find a good mother-in-law." the companion said proudly.


    Watching the two people go together immediately, many diners also moved a little in their hearts.


    With the publication of Ink magazine, more and more families are excited about such excellent conditions. The women''s medical school has been popular in the whole Guanzhong before the school starts.


    Tai Chi hall!


    "Practice medicine for filial piety! That''s a good idea!"


    Li Shimin looked at the ink magazine in his hand with satisfaction and listened to pound''s hot discussion on the women''s Medical College. It was obvious that the women''s medical college became popular.


    "Lord Mo, it seems unreliable at ordinary times, but when it comes to doing things, it''s bright!" pound smiled at Li Shimin''s happiness.


    "This little catfish!"


    Li Shimin thought about Merton''s various performances and couldn''t help laughing.


    At this time, a palace girl with an ink magazine stormed into the Tai Chi hall.


    "Father, if a child wants to learn medicine for filial piety, he must cure his mother''s Qi disease!"


    The palace girl knelt on the ground and said firmly on her face.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Li Shimin suddenly turned black and gnashed his teeth.


    He was just praising Merton''s idea of filial piety medicine, but he didn''t expect that the effect was so good that he put his daughter in the hole.


    If Merton is here, he will be able to recognize that this woman is the Changle Princess Li Lizhi who has been to the Mo mansion, and the women''s medical school will also welcome one of the most famous students.

 Chapter 132

    The Principality of Lai.


    It was Du Ruhui, the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, who closed the house. In the process of Li Shimin''s eastern and Western conquest to calm the world, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling can be described as Li Shimin''s right-hand men. They made great contributions and were called Fang cunduduan.


    However, Tian was jealous of talents. In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Du Ruhui died of illness, and Li Shimin was posthumously granted the title of Duke Lai,


    Merton looked at the magnificent Laiguo mansion and couldn''t help sighing. He really had different lives. After his cheap Lao Tzu died, no one paid attention to the Mo mansion, but the Du family was still rewarded and favored.


    Not only did Du Gou''s official fortune prosper, but even his second son, Du he, would also be made a prince-in-law. Princess Shang Chengyang would not have lost his life and implicated the Du family if the unlucky man had not died himself and participated in Li Chengqian''s rebellion. Otherwise, the Du family''s achievements would be rich and valuable in a hundred years.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    Install the front buckle door.


    "Who!"


    An impatient voice sounded from behind the door. The door slowly opened half a door. A gray haired porter looked at Merton and Tie''an impatiently.


    As the saying goes, in front of the prime minister''s door, Du Ruhui is a seven grade official. Although Du Ruhui died, the Du house is still honored, and the porter of the Du family is still very proud.


    "Please also inform me that Mohist Merton came to paint the portrait of Lingyan Pavilion of the Duke of Lai, which was notified in advance yesterday." tie an arched his hand.


    After nearly a month''s painting, Merton finally painted 20 of the 24 meritorious heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, and the remaining four are the most rare. Because these meritorious heroes have already died, Merton arranged them to the end.


    Merton usually gives notice in advance of his paintings and makes an appointment to prevent time conflict. Merton reported to Du Fu in advance yesterday. Today, he came to discuss painting matters.


    "Please go back! The young master said, I''m not tired of painting!" the porter of Du mansion waved impatiently.


    After Du Ruhui''s death, his eldest son Du Gou inherited the title. However, because Du Gou has been an official outside for many years, the second son Du he is the real leader of the Laiguo government, and the young master mentioned in the gatekeeper''s mouth is obviously Du he.


    With a frown, Merton couldn''t help thinking of the scene in the church secretary''s workshop that day when Aunt Gongsun and Du he were angry. Obviously, this was Du he''s revenge,


    "It was your Majesty''s order to draw the portrait of Lingyan Pavilion, which is also related to the glory of Lord Lai''s life. How can you decide for your master as a small concierge?" Merton said coldly.


    "Joke, the master has been dead for four years, but you come to the door to paint today. Don''t you laugh off your big teeth?" the Porter said.


    "Since Mo took over the task and dared to go to the door, he is naturally sure to draw a portrait of Lord Lai. If you delay your Majesty''s important affairs, can a small concierge bear the responsibility?" Merton looked coldly at the superior concierge.


    "You..." the porter was speechless. Of course he couldn''t bear the responsibility. If he really blamed him later, Du he might be fine, but he must be.


    "If you don''t want to draw, let duho tell me in person!" Merton shouted.


    "Yes, yes!"


    The porter quickly closed the door and went to report in panic.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What are you talking about? The Mohists will stay outside the door before they leave!" Du he, who had just got up, was surprised when he heard the report from the porter.


    "Young master, the Mohist said, let the young master say whether to draw or not. If it''s small, it doesn''t count." the porter whispered.


    "Waste, this thing is not done well!" Du he scolded angrily at the porter.


    "Little damn!"


    The concierge looked terrified. In fact, he was greatly relieved. It was really not something he could get involved in. He was lucky to take himself out.


    "Mo Jiazi, if you dare to come to Du Fu to fish for fame and reputation, don''t blame me for not leaving you a little affection!" Du Helian snorted.


    Everyone knows that the portraits of Lingyan Pavilion painted by Mohist Zi to all officials are painted by real people, which makes them so lifelike and very similar.


    But his father Du Ruhui has been dead for four years. Four years ago, mojiazi was still starving in Mojia village. Where have you seen Du Ruhui, how can you paint for mojiazi.


    Therefore, Du he didn''t believe that Merton''s real purpose was to draw a portrait. He thought that Merton''s visit was just perfunctory and fishing for fame and reputation. In addition, he and Merton lost their previous fight with Gongsun girl in the education department workshop, and suddenly new hatred and old hatred were together, which led to the farce today.


    "Hey! Please calm down, young master. The Mo family is ordered by the emperor. It''s also related to the event of the master''s going to Lingyan Pavilion. I''m afraid it''s wrong to be hostile to the Mo family!"


    Du mansion housekeeper Liang Bo repeatedly advised.


    Liang Bo is an old man of Du family. He has been following Du Ruhui all the time. He looks at the Du family most thoroughly. Don''t look at the reverence of the Laiguo government. Since Du Ruhui died, the status of the Du family has plummeted. It''s unwise to make friends with the ink family at this time!


    "Don''t worry, uncle Liang. Without butcher Zhang, you''ll have to eat a pig with hair? There are many people who can draw in the world. I have only a plan!" Du he sneered.


    Outside the government of Lai,


    Du he led a group of servants and rushed to the door. Seeing Merton at the door, he was angry and shouted: "son of the Mo family, you came to my Du family to act wildly and humiliate my father. Did you deceive me that there was no one in the Du family?"


    Iron Ann saw that the situation was bad and immediately turned back to protect Merton behind her.


    Merton looked at Du he with disgust. This fool, no wonder later generations have hurt Du Fu miserably and caught up with Du Ruhui''s great name.


    Merton pushed away Tie''an, faced Du he and said, "the Marquis came under the emperor''s orders. Who dares to move a hair of the marquis."


    In terms of status, he is the newly granted founding County Marquis, and Du he is just a county Duke. In terms of righteousness, he came to Du house under the order of the emperor. None of them was offended by a small servant, even the servant of the prime minister''s family.


    Hearing Merton''s words, the dintons looked flustered and became timid.


    "Young master, calm down!" Liang Bo hurriedly advised.


    Although Du he hated Merton to the bone, he was not stupid. He knew that this was not the time to avenge his personal revenge. He took the opportunity to step down under the persuasion of Liang Bo.


    "Mojiazi, you''re lucky this time!" Du he said ruthlessly.


    "Ben Hou has always been very lucky. Don''t worry about it. Ben Hou will ask you whether the portrait of Duke Lai has been painted or not." Merton pressed his airway.


    "My father''s portrait is only a plan, don''t bother you." Duhe said word by word.


    Merton sneered and said, "I hope you don''t regret it."


    Then he turned and left with tiean.


    "If I regret it, I''ll take your last name!" Du he sneered.


    Soon, with the spread of people with intentions, the news that Du he drove out mojiazi spread all over Chang''an city. One was the vigorous mojiazi and the other was the son of the former prime minister.


    The whole city of Chang''an immediately talked about it, but most people stood on Du he''s side. After all, no one believed that Mozi could draw a portrait of someone he had never seen before.

 Chapter 133

    "The MOH family is really too much. They even use the reputation of the late Du Xiang to fish for fame."


    "Thanks to my previous appreciation of the Mo family, I didn''t expect him to be such a person!"


    "No wonder the Duke family kicked him out of the gate. He humiliated himself!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, the news that Du he drove Merton out of Du Fu became stronger and stronger, and there was a lot of discussion in the streets.


    The Du family was originally a millennial family in Chang''an. Its power was intertwined and powerful. In addition, Du Ruhui''s reputation in Chang''an was at the height of the sun. In addition, Du Ruhui has just died for four years, and people still remember the good minister.


    For a moment, the reputation of the Mohist school was in jeopardy. The government and the public mentioned Merton and frowned one after another.


    "The reputation of the Mohist school is a smelly street this time! Jiang Zhong''s mansion was beaten out without entering the gate." Du he said excitedly to Chang sun Chong and Yan Xingjian in the education department workshop.


    In their mouth, Jiang Zhonggong was the title of Qu tutong, the founding General of the Tang Dynasty. He had died in the first year of Zhenguan. At that time, Merton was estimated to be a little child. Of course, the Qu tutong family did not believe Merton.


    "OK, mojiazi, you still have today? From now on, I see how mojiazi looks up in Chang''an city!" the eldest sun burst into laughter.


    Merton has always been bad for his good deeds. First, he lost face in Jiaosi square and destroyed his marriage with Princess Changle. Eldest sun Chong hated Merton.


    When tiean came to inform Du Fu to draw Du Ruhui''s portrait, Chang sun Chong happened to be in Du Fu, making him realize that the opportunity for revenge came.


    Sure enough, when he provoked him a little, Du he immediately flew into a rage, which led to the conflict in front of Du''s house. Not only that, but even Merton was continuously driven out by Du''s family and Qu Tu''s family. It was Chang sun Chong who planned behind his back. Otherwise, how could it spread all over Chang''an city so quickly.


    "Brother Yan, please take care of my father''s portrait this time." Du he arched his hand to Yan Xingjian.


    "Don''t worry, brother Du. After studying, my uncle has mastered the new painting skills, and my uncle and Du Xiang are officials in the dynasty. They get along day and night and are very familiar with each other. Yesterday, my younger brother told my uncle about brother Du''s request, and my uncle has nodded and promised." Yan Xingjian said proudly.


    Yan Xingjian wanted to step on the top of Merton before. As a result, he was beaten in the face by Merton, and his heart was filled with hatred. This time he heard that he would spare no effort to deal with the Mexican family.


    "Well, if Lord Yan comes out, the portrait of Du Xiang will be safe this time. I''ll see how you turn over this time," the eldest sun Chong laughed.


    Du he''s hostile to Merton is not reckless, but has his own small abacus. On the one hand, he really doesn''t believe that Merton can paint Du Ruhui. On the other hand, he has a backup candidate, another painting master, Yan Liben, adult Yan.


    Without his worries, Du he would not leave a face for Merton and drive people directly. Not only that, Qu Tu''s family was also angry with the Mohist family in advance. Even the remaining Zhang Gongjin and Yin Kaishan, Chang sun Chong and others had been angry, so they sat here and waited to see the jokes of the Mohist family.


    "Well, somebody, immediately spread the news that the Mohist family was expelled by Duke Jiang Zhong again!" the eldest sun shouted.


    "Yes!"


    Immediately someone rushed out.


    Soon, the news that the Mo family was once again driven out of Chang''an by the government of Jiang Zhong spread all over Chang''an city. The of Chang''an city was boiling again. Compared with Du Ruhui, Qu Toutong''s reputation in Chang''an city was not weak.


    In the Sui Dynasty, Qu tutong was appointed by Yang Guang to stay in Chang''an. He was ordered to defend Chang''an. After surrendering to the Tang Dynasty, Qu tutong was in a high position and has always been a dignitary in Chang''an city.


    "The MOH family is still stubborn and dare to fight even the idea of Jiang Zhonggong!" the old man in his fifties angrily said. He is an old man who has experienced the Sui and Tang Dynasties and worships Qu tutong very much.


    "I think it''s the Mohist school. It''s too inflated and a little complacent!"


    "So ignorant of heaven and earth, with the help of the late meritorious hero, I was really blind before, and even believed him."


    "The character of Mojia Zi is so unbearable. It can be seen that Mojia village is also a place to hide dirty things. In the future, we will never buy anything from Mojia village." more profiteers are behind the scenes to suppress the business of Mojia village.


    For a moment, the reputation of the Mohist school was completely rotten.


    Merton''s next family is the Duke of Zou. Duke Zhang Gongjin of Zou died in Zhenguan six years, and his eldest son Zhang Xiangxiang inherited the title.


    In front of the Duke of Zou.


    Tie an looked angrily at Zou''s government house with the door closed. He looked at the young master with worry, but found that Merton''s face was calm and could not see a trace of anger at all.


    "Young master!"


    Tiean shouted anxiously. He knew that the more this situation was, the more it showed the accumulation of anger in Merton''s heart.


    "I''m fine?" Merton waved his hand.


    He knew that someone must have done something behind his back this time, otherwise the three families would not be so unified and wouldn''t even give him a chance to try. This shows that the three families have the confidence to make friends with each other, and someone can still draw the portraits of the three princes.


    Unless it is safe, he believes that any aristocratic family has no brain, and no family can give up the glory of shanglingyan Pavilion, let alone three at once.


    Making friends with himself can influence the imperial family, and he has the confidence to draw the portraits of the three imperial princes. Merton can''t help but think of the group of people he met in the Jiaosi square.


    "Young master, why don''t we go back first and find a way." tie an advised.


    Merton shook his head and said, "go to the next one!"


    Yunjie mansion has already gathered a lot of people watching the excitement and family spies who inquire about the news. After all, the news that mojiazi was expelled three times has been widely spread. People can easily guess that mojiazi''s last stop is in Yunjie mansion,.


    "Don''t you dare to come?" a young man dressed in blue looked at the end of the street.


    "If I didn''t come, wouldn''t I be looking for humiliation?" someone shook his head.


    "That''s what he deserved. Who let him fish for fame with the late meritorious hero." the Qingyi servant seemed to be angry on his face.


    Conversations like this happen from time to time around. One or two are sparing no effort to slander Merton. Soon, many people have a bad feeling about Merton''s voice.


    "Coming, Mojia Zi is coming!" Yu Guang, a young man in Qingyi, swept the street and saw the carriage marked by Mojia village. He shouted in a very excited tone.


    "What? The MOH family dare to come!" the crowd was excited!


    With a squeak, the Mohist carriage stopped, a coachman like an iron tower opened the curtain, and a beautiful young man jumped down.


    "Ah! Is this the MOH family?"


    "I didn''t expect to be so resourceful at a young age."


    "What a pity!"


    The crowd looked at Merton and immediately talked.


    "Tiean!" Merton turned his head and shouted, ignoring the gossip.


    Tie''an will go to Yunjie mansion.


    The onlookers immediately showed a happy look and waited to see the Mexican family driven out again.

 Chapter 134

    "What Mohist dares to come to our Yunjie mansion!" Yan Yuan heard the report from the porter and dared not buy a channel.


    Among the twenty-four meritorious heroes of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Yin Kaishan, the Duke of Yun Festival, died the earliest. Yin Kaishan died of illness when Li Shimin conquered Liu black valve in the sixth year of Wude.


    He didn''t even leave a man at all. Finally, his nephew Yin yuan inherited the title of Yun Jie Gong. Now he is only sixteen. When he was young and impulsive, he was furious when he heard that Merton came to the door of Yun Jie Gong..


    The continuous expulsion of mojiazi has been widely spread. How could he not know that he had already received the dark consent of Chang sun Chong to let Yan Liben draw the Lingyan Pavilion portrait of Yin Kaishan, the Duke of Yunjie. He thought that mojiazi dared not come, but he didn''t expect that after being rejected by three families in a row, he dared to climb the gate of the Duke of Yunjie.


    "The Mo family even made the last decision on my Yan family. They really treat me as a soft persimmon." Yin yuan angrily said.


    "Young master, the Mohist family is still waiting for the young master''s reply at the door? Look?" the housekeeper of Yunjie mansion asked for instructions.


    "Don''t blame me for not giving him mercy!" Yan Yuan was so angry that he got up and walked outside the door!


    "Stop!"


    An angry drink stopped Yan Yuan''s body, and saw an old woman with a pale face staring at Yan Yuan angrily with a crutch.


    "Old lady!"


    The housekeeper quickly saluted.


    "Grandma! Why are you here!" Yan Yuan quickly came forward to hold the old woman with a respectful and filial expression.


    The old lady was Yan Kaishan''s mother and the real leader of Yunjie house. When Yan Kaishan died young, the whole Yan Family suddenly fell apart. It was the old lady who planned strategies, presided over the overall situation, urged Yan Yuan to inherit Yan Kaishan, be filial, and inherit the title of Yan Kaishan, which saved the fame and title of the Yan family.


    "Villain! If I don''t come again, you will ruin the glory that the Yan family managed to keep." old lady Yan looked at Yan Yuan with an angry expression.


    "Grandma? The Mexican family came to the door and hurt our Yan Family''s reputation by fishing for fame with the help of our late father. It was polite for the child to drive him out!" Yan Yuan said angrily.


    "Villain, you''re still stubborn. Let''s not say that the Mohist school is at its zenith and simple in the heart of the emperor. It''s you who arranged your majesty to drive away the painter who opened the mountain portrait. Do you want your father''s portrait to go to the Lingyan Pavilion?" old lady Yan said with a hatred of iron and steel. Being able to go to the Lingyan Pavilion is the foundation of the prosperity of the Yan Family in the next hundred years. Where can there be a slightest negligence.


    "Oh! Grandma is worried about this," Yan Yuansong said. "Grandma can rest assured that his grandson and his eldest grandson Chong are friends. He has promised to invite the current Chinese painting master Yan Liben, adult Yan, to paint a portrait for his late father. Adult Yan has devoted himself to developing new painting skills, which have long been connected, and are not inferior to the painting skills of Mozi."


    When old lady Yan heard Yan Yuan''s explanation, she not only didn''t believe it, but became angry and hit Yan Yuan on the back with a crutch: "Chang sun Chong? Chang sun Chong, you really listened to others'' slander and died early. Our Yan family is in turmoil. It''s the right way to hide your energy and keep quiet. You dare to take the initiative to participate in the meaningless struggle of these dandies. See if I don''t kill you!"


    Old lady Yan raised her crutches and hit Yan Yuan. After several crutches, Yan Yuan immediately had blood on his scalp, but she still stood there and didn''t hide.


    "Grandma, the Mohist son was just as old as a child. How could he have seen his late father, and how could he have painted a portrait of his late father? Did you just draw one and hang it in Lingyan Pavilion? If you killed me, I would not let the Mohist son tarnish his late father''s reputation and make the Yan family the laughing stock of Chang''an city." Yan Yuan was covered with blood, but he was still hard.


    "Crazy son! Do you know your father died too early, and he Yan Liben didn''t see your father!" old lady Yan looked at Yan Yuan with blood on her face and wholeheartedly maintained Yan Kaishan''s reputation, which was both gratifying and sad.


    "Ah!" Yan Yuan was struck by lightning and looked at old lady Yan in disbelief.


    "Your father spent his whole life on military expeditions. He was away all year round and rarely returned to Beijing. Yan Liben was a civil servant and had no intersection." old lady Yan lamented.


    "But Lord Yan and his father were officials in the same Dynasty..." Yan Yuan still didn''t understand.


    "The other three families died in recent years. Yan Liben may have seen them, but your father died six years after Wu De, and Yan Liben became an official in Zhenguan. He has never seen your father. How can he draw a portrait of your father?"


    "But the eldest sun Chong..." Yan Yuan flopped and knelt on the ground. It turned out that he had really become a chess piece in the struggle of others, which almost involved the Yan Family in the vortex of the struggle.


    "But what should I do? Can''t I help my father''s portrait?" Yan Yuan muttered to himself.


    Lingyan Pavilion is related to the wealth of the Yin family for a hundred years, and it is said that Lingyan Pavilion is built in the center of Chang''an City for future visitors! At that time, as like as two peas, the other twenty-three portraits were just like the real people, but only the Yin Kai Shan''s portrait was not at all like that. When the emperor came to Lingyan Pavilion, he looked at the realistic portrait of a hero, remembering their achievements. But when he came to the portrait of Yin Kai Shan, he could not say that he could not say more of the old love to a picture of Yin Kai Shan.


    Yan Yuan thought about this scene in his mind and couldn''t help but feel cold in his heart. At that time, the Yan family not only became the laughing stock of Chang''an City, but also lost his Majesty''s grace. That was the biggest disaster of the Yan family.


    "Fool! You are still stubborn now. The Mexican family was rejected by three people, but still came to the door of our Yan family. Is it self humiliating?" old lady Yan looked at Yan Yuandao helplessly. The child was good in all aspects, dutiful and filial, but she was stupid.


    "Grandma, you mean that the MOH family had a way, how could it be that no one could draw a portrait of a person he had never seen." Yan Yuan''s eyes flashed a glimmer of hope, but it soon went out.


    "Then only a dead horse can be a living horse doctor. If there is another person in the world who can draw a portrait of the beginning of the mountain, it is the founder of new painting skills. Old lady Yan hoped that the reputation of the Mohist family was that she had heard of it in the deep house for a long time. I hope the Mohist family can create another miracle this time!


    "Grandson, I''ll tell you to let the Mohists in." Yan Yuan jumped up from the ground.


    "No! Open the middle door! I''ll meet you personally." old lady Yan said firmly. At this moment, she regained her momentum of turning the tide.

 Chapter 135

    More and more people have gathered in front of the government house, with excited expressions on their faces, waiting for the good play of Mozi being rejected by the four.


    "Coming, coming!" someone said excitedly when he heard the sound in the government house.


    There was a sudden commotion, and they looked at the gate of the government house. They saw that the middle door of the government house opened loudly, and a large number of servants came out of the chrysalis, neatly lined up in two rows to separate the crowd.


    Although Yan Kaishan died early, after all, he was a general family. As soon as the tough servant came out, the whole scene was silent.


    "Mozi suffered this time, and even completely angered the government." someone gloated.


    "Young master!" tie an protected Merton behind him for the first time and looked tragically at the wolf like servants of the government. Unlike the gangsters of the fish Gang, these servants are elite veterans who have been on the battlefield. He is not afraid to fight alone, but if they are a group, he will have to kneel if he can fight again.


    "Get out of the way!"


    Morton pushed tiean''s body away unhappily. There was still no inside information in Mojia village. Tiean didn''t know what it meant to open the middle door. When Morton saw that the middle door of the government was open, he was relieved and knew that things had changed.


    "We must make up for tiean in the future, otherwise this guy may not make any jokes in the future." Merton said in his heart.


    "Open the middle door! How is it possible?" among the crowd, the person arranged by Chang sun Chong was stunned. The previous plan was very smooth. I can''t imagine why there was such a big deviation in the last link.


    "Lord Mo''s coming, the Duke''s residence is far away. Please forgive me." old lady Yan walked out of the middle door with silver hair and a smile. She saw Merton standing in front of the door like a strong pine. She still didn''t look angry in the face of three rejections. She walked to Yunjie''s residence persistently, which is commendable.


    Then look at the grandson with a black nose and a swollen face behind him. He can''t help but sigh. If he is a grandson like Yunjie public MOH family, he won''t be happy.


    "Duke Yun Jie is loyal to his country and brave in the three armed forces. I have admired him for a long time. His majesty is also deeply impressed by Duke Yun''s great achievements in founding the country. He specially ordered Mo to come to the door for a portrait. Mo came here today, first, to complete his Majesty''s great trust, and second, to take this opportunity to pay tribute to Duke Yun''s heroism and want to offer a incense stick in front of Duke Yun''s holy place!" everyone raised the shelf, Merton naturally treated Yunjie Prefecture with courtesy for such a big battle.


    "Complete your Majesty''s heavy trust!" old lady Yan''s eyes lit up when she heard the speech. Isn''t it the same as her own guess that Mohist was really sure to draw a portrait.


    "Thank you for your grace. The Yan family will tie a straw knot to repay your Majesty''s kindness." old lady Yan respectfully saluted towards the palace.


    "Thank you for your grace!" the Yan Family saluted one after another.


    Among the many meritorious officials, the Yan family had the hardest time. Yan Kaishan and Mo lie died too early and left no political legacy at all. What''s more, Yan Kaishan had no children and just inherited his nephew.


    It can be said that the establishment of Lingyan Pavilion has made the volatile Yunjie government rich and noble for at least a century, and it was Merton who proposed the establishment of Lingyan Pavilion. How can this not make old lady Yin feel good about Merton.


    Old lady Yan took a deep breath, pressed the excitement in her heart, smiled and said, "Lord Mo, please! Kaishan would be very happy to know that such a talented person came to visit."


    "Please, Mrs. Yan!" Merton refused, but she was caught by Mrs. Yan and walked into Yunjie mansion side by side.


    Seeing the door of Yunjie mansion closed heavily, all the onlookers were dumbfounded. They all came to see the joke that Mojia Zi was rejected by Xun GUI? Why did it suddenly reverse.


    The Yan family not only did not shut him out, but opened the middle door and ceremoniously welcomed the Mohist son in.


    "Hurry, send the news back." all the spies sent the news back one after another.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What? Yan Yuan, that stupid guy, let the Mohists in?" in the missionary workshop, the three people who were drinking and having fun stared at the messenger.


    "Old lady Yan personally opened the middle door to welcome the Mexican family into the house." the servant of the letter said the situation in detail.


    "How could it be? Old lady Yan was confused. Didn''t we promise him? Let Lord Yan draw a portrait of Duke Yun Jie. Now that the mob of Mohists came in, didn''t he want the portrait of Duke Yun Jie?" Du he said incredulously.


    In his opinion, this plan is infallible, and Qu Tu''s family and Zhang Jia cooperate very well to drive away the Mohist family. How did it change when they arrived at the Yan family.


    Chang sun Chong and Yan Xingjian looked at each other and couldn''t help but flash a haze.


    "Uncle once said that he had never seen Yun Jie Gong!" Yan Xingjian said, gritting his teeth. He couldn''t hide it, so he had to tell the truth.


    "Ah!" Du he was stunned, "that is to say, even Lord Yan can''t draw a portrait of Yun Jie Gong."


    Yan Xingjian nodded bitterly.


    Du he looked at Chang sun Chong without any surprise. Obviously, he also knew about it. Suddenly, Du he finally knew the whole story.


    Knowing that Yan Liben could not draw the portrait of Yin Kaishan, Chang sun Chong came to the door and promised to be seen through by old lady Yin. Finally, he bet the treasure on the Mohist son, and the two people even kept it from themselves and let themselves know at last.


    "Don''t worry, brother Du! Since even Lord Yan can''t draw the portrait of Duke Yun Jie, do you think the Mohists can draw it?" the eldest sun Chong comforted.


    Du he felt a little relieved, but when he thought of all kinds of evils of Mohism, many impossible things could always happen miracles in his hands, but he was not down-to-earth, but now it was useless to say anything, so he could only continue to wait for news.


    In Yunjie mansion.


    Merton respectfully saluted and offered incense in front of Yin Kaishan''s spirit. After the ceremony, Merton and old lady Yin came to the living room and sat down.


    "Lord Mo, please forgive me. Kaishan has died for ten years, and he didn''t leave a portrait before his death. I don''t know how the Lord painted." after tea, old lady Yan couldn''t wait to ask.


    All the people in the Yan family immediately looked at Merton, and each of them was very nervous.


    Merton put down his tea cup, looked around and said, "since I dare to come to the Yan mansion, I am sure to draw the portrait of Yun Jie."


    Suddenly everyone was in an uproar and looked at Merton in disbelief.


    "Lord Mo had never seen my father before, and how to draw a portrait of a person he had never seen." Yan Yuan questioned with disbelief on his face.


    "Indeed, I haven''t seen Duke Yun Jie, but I don''t think your house will lack people who are familiar with Duke Yun Jie. I will draw Duke Yun Jie through their eyes." Merton said confidently.

 Chapter 136

    "With our eyes!" the Yan family looked at each other and didn''t understand what Merton meant.


    "Lord Mo''s meaning..." old lady Yan hesitated. Did the Mo family want to use immortal magic and let us see the soul of Yan Kaishan through our eyes.


    Merton looked at a pair of people in the Yan family, knew that the people in the Yan family had misunderstood, and couldn''t help laughing, so he quickly explained: "Old lady Yin misunderstood. What I mean is to let the Mo House find out some people who are most familiar with Yun Jie Gong, let them recall the appearance characteristics of Yun Jie Gong, and say it in the most detail. I will restore the portrait of Yun Jie gong through these appearance characteristics described by you."


    Merton used the common means of portraitists in later generations. Although he could not achieve the ability to restore people''s appearance by looking at mosaics or extremely blurred pictures, he could still draw portraits through the description of the closest people.


    "Oh!" they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. They secretly said that the Mexican family has been exposing the magic of ghosts and gods. How can they perform these magic of ghosts and gods like Wizards.


    "Kaishan is my son. I am the most familiar with him. I can''t remember every freckle on him wrong. I''m an old man!" old lady Yan nodded. Of course, he is the most familiar with his son.


    "It would be great if Mrs. Yin could help, but please find a few more people. The more detailed the narration is, the more similar the painting will be." Merton nodded, and his son will inherit some of his mother''s appearance genes more or less. With a close relative as a template, the difficulty of the portrait will be reduced by more than half, even if old lady Yin doesn''t say, Merton will let it stay.


    "Well, that''s no problem. Many of the Yan Family followed the old people who opened the mountain, especially Yan Li! He was the close guard of the mountain in those days. Every time he opened the mountain to the battlefield, Yan Li kept protecting him." old lady Yan pointed to a servant next to him.


    Tie an couldn''t help looking at Yan Li. Just outside the gate, the biggest threat to him was Yan Li, who was not high, but with tendons.


    "The old lady falsely praised following the general, which was the honor of a humble position." Yan Li respectfully said. According to Yan Li''s military achievements, it was easy to be a school captain in the army, but after Yan Kaishan died, Yan Li chose to be called the servant of Yunjie mansion to continue to guard the Yan family.


    "Also a loyal man!" Merton praised.


    "Don''t dare!" Yan Li said.


    Finally, old lady Yan found someone who served Yan Kaishan closely to cooperate with Merton''s portrait..


    Soon Merton set up a painter and motioned to old lady Yin to narrate.


    "Lord Mo may not know that although our Yan family is now a general support, our parents in Yan Kaishan have always been civil servants. When Kaishan was young, he was called a thin and weak. At that time, when Kaishan followed Gaozu to start the army, he was very worried, lest he suffer in the army, and as soon as he came back, he became black and strong." The old lady Yan fell into memory and said in a wordy tone.


    Merton did not interrupt old lady Yan, but listened patiently and selected some useful information from a few words.


    "Opening the mountain is also a hard life. I worked hard all my life, but I didn''t have a life to enjoy it. Even my children didn''t stay. I saw yuan at that time


    When he was young, he found that his eyes were the same as Kaishan when he was a child. This allowed yuan''er to inherit and leave a incense for Kaishan.


    "This is a useful information!" Merton motioned Yan Yuan to sit over and draw it on rice paper according to Yan Yuan''s eyes.


    "Is that so?" Merton gestured for correction with his painted eyes.


    "Although the general''s eyes and the small Duke''s eyes are imaginary, they should be slightly larger and more murderous." Yin Li thought and added.


    Merton immediately took out another rice paper, expanded it and added some sharp lines on the basis of the original eyes.


    "Yes, yes, that''s the look. Don''t look at the general''s kindness. Once he gets angry, no one will be frightened. This kind of look will never be forgotten for a lifetime." another servant shouted happily.


    "The general''s eyebrows were most similar to the old woman, but they were slightly different." Yan Li frowned.


    Merton drew more than ten different styles of eyebrows against old lady Yin''s eyebrows, and finally selected three similar ones and modified them one by one,


    "The general''s nose... Mouth..."


    "Kaishan has a round face and a mole on his cheek..."


    "There is an inch long scar on the general''s forehead. It was left by the general when he attacked Wang Shichong."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone looked at me and said a word. Merton constantly revised and replaced the rice paper one by one. Finally, when night fell, a lifelike Yin Kaishan appeared on the rice paper.


    "Old lady, please see what else can be modified." turn over the drawing board and let old lady Yin evaluate it.


    "Open the mountain!"


    When old lady Yin saw the characters in the painting, she suddenly cried out sadly.


    "Ten years, ten years! Mother is thinking of you day and night!" old lady Yan suddenly burst into tears and stroked the portrait with trembling fingers, as if her proud son was in front of her.


    "General!"


    Led by Yin Li, the members of the Yan family fell to their knees.


    "Child, if you don''t kneel down, this is your father!" old lady Yan trembled and pulled Yan Yuan down beside the portrait, pointing to the portrait of Yan Kaishan.


    Yan Yuan stared at the portrait in front of him, only felt a burst of kindness.


    "Father!"


    Yan Yuan fell to his knees with a thump, and the glory and wealth of his life was bought by the people in front of him.


    After the Yan Family worshipped, it remembered that Merton was still waiting.


    "Lord Mo''s painting skills are amazing. On behalf of the Yan family, I thank Lord Mo for his great kindness." old lady Yan solemnly saluted Merton.


    Old lady Yin knew that Merton''s painting skills not only prevented the Yan Family from becoming the laughing stock of Chang''an City, but also made the Yan family stay at the heart of the emperor again, which was of great help to the weak Yunjie government.


    "No, no, this is my duty!" Merton hurriedly avoided.


    "Villain, don''t go and make amends to Lord Mo!" old lady Yan shouted angrily and stared at Yan Yuan.


    Yan Yuan immediately blushed, saluted Merton and said, "Lord Mo, Yan mistakenly believed the slander, misunderstood Lord Mo, and asked Lord Mo to make atonement."


    "Mo''s painting skill has never been shown in front of people. It''s common to misunderstand. I would also like to thank Yunjie government for giving mo the opportunity to correct his name?" Merton replied.


    "You two are the same generation, you should be close in the future!" old lady Yan appreciated Merton more and more. She knew that Merton''s future would be unlimited in the future, but Yan Yuan looked dull and wanted to pave the way for her grandson.


    "Sure, sure!" Merton agreed.


    "Open the mountain!" a sad voice suddenly sounded behind him.


    Merton suddenly got up and found a lady about thirty, weakly holding the door frame, with a sad portrait of Yin Kaishan on her face.


    "Mom! Why are you here!" Yan Yuan looked at the lady and hurried forward to help her.


    "Madam!"


    The servants bowed. Obviously, the lady in front of us was Yin Kaishan''s widow, Yin Shi, and Yin yuan''s mother.


    "Didn''t you take good care of your mother? What did you do?" Yan Yuan angrily stared at the maid behind Yan. Since Yan Kaishan died, Yan missed him and was often ill in bed and needed special care.


    "Madam, when you hear the news, you have to come and have a look! Slaves and maidservants can''t stop it!" said the maid wrongly.


    Yan ignored Yan Yuan, but looked directly at the portrait of Yin Kaishan!


    "Open the mountain, you''re back at last!" Yan cried sadly, and suddenly fainted under excessive excitement.


    The people of the Yan family watched with their own eyes that the Mohists painted the portrait of Yin Kaishan one by one, and their expectations were little by little. When they saw the portrait of Yin Kaishan, they were also mentally prepared.


    But the Yin family itself was weak, and missed Yan Kaishan so much that he couldn''t bear to see the portrait suddenly.


    "Mother!" Yan Yuan shouted quickly.


    "Hurry, call the doctor!" Yan Li quickly ordered.


    "What''s the doctor''s name? Prepare the carriage immediately and send the lady to Mo hospital!" old lady Yan said with a firm voice.


    She now has great trust in mojiazi, together with her strange trust in mojiazi hospital.


    The carriage was ready soon,


    The door of Yunjie mansion was opened again, and a carriage ran away. Various spies waiting outside Yunjie mansion followed all the way to Mo hospital.


    Soon learned that Yin fainted and was admitted to Mo hospital, and soon spread all over Chang''an city.


    When Merton came to the door to paint, Yin fainted. These two things were mended in everyone''s mind, and soon deduced countless versions, which spread in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 137

    "Hahaha, I said, no one in the world can draw a person who has never seen before. The Mohist son really killed himself! He fainted angrily and was admitted to the Mohist hospital!"


    In the education department workshop, Yan Xingjian laughed happily, fortunately, disaster fell on the road.


    "Well, it''s no wonder that the ink family the Yan family found by themselves can''t draw the portrait of Yun Jie gong at that time!" the eldest son breathed a sigh of relief. He concealed the news that Yan Liben couldn''t draw Yan Kaishan. He had taken risks. In this way, the ink family chosen by the Yan family can''t blame his eldest son.


    "The Mohist family and the Yan family are insulting themselves!" Du he Leng hum. In fact, when he heard the news that Mrs. Yan was admitted to the Mo hospital, he was greatly relieved. Fortunately, the Mohist family didn''t draw it, otherwise his Du family would be called the laughing stock of Chang''an City.


    However, they didn''t realize that Merton had such incredible skills that he could restore a person''s face through people''s dictation, and the Yan family was in a panic and couldn''t find out any news at all.


    "Since mojiazi has failed, will our next plan continue to be implemented?" Du he asked.


    In his opinion, since he offended the MOH family, he had to continue to die.


    "Of course continue!" the eldest sun Chong smiled insidiously, "not only continue to implement it, but also add the charge of Mo Jiazi''s gas dizzy Yun Jie Gong''s widow. This time I want to make Mo Jiazi unable to turn over."


    "Elder brother changsun is wise. Mohist is just an upstart. Once he gains power, he will forget himself. Elder brother changsun will beat him back to his original shape as soon as he makes a move." Yan Xingjian flattered, but he was also secretly proud. The last time Merton stepped on him to fame, he still resented it. So when elder sun Chong explained his plan to retaliate against Mohist, he immediately nodded and agreed to participate, Now it''s time for revenge.


    Soon, when the news reached Duke Jiang Zhong''s house and Duke Zou''s house, Qu Tu''s family and Zhang Jia were relieved. At the same time, they were secretly happy. Fortunately, they didn''t let the Mohists in, otherwise they would be called laughing stock like the Yan family.


    Not only did they, whether dignitaries or ordinary people, sigh with regret when they heard the news that Mozi would faint Yun jiegong''s widow. The legend of Mozi has been broken.


    The next day, Tai Chi hall, early morning!


    The ministers who came and went looked at the ranks of generals one after another. They saw a green face in the front row of the national team! Yin yuan.


    "Yun Jie Gong!"


    When the ministers heard Pound''s roll call, they were surprised.


    Since the death of Yin Kaishan, the people of the Yan family have never appeared in the court hall, which is the first time that Yunjie mansion appeared in the court hall.


    "Why is he here!" a courtier who didn''t know the news doubted.


    "Don''t you know that?" a minister next to him quickly and excitedly said that mojiazi was rejected by three yesterday and that the widow of the grand government of Yun state was dizzy, as if he had experienced it with his own eyes.


    "Oh! No wonder the Yunjie Prefecture is going to make trouble in the court. The Mohists really went too far."


    "Hey! Mingming kindly gave the Mo family a chance, but he didn''t receive good news!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many courtiers who were in love with the Ming Dynasty and Bai Dynasty looked at Yin yuan with sympathy.


    "Play early if you have something, and leave the court if you have nothing!"


    As soon as Pound''s voice fell, two figures appeared at the same time.


    "I have a play!"


    Wang Yushi took the lead, and the experienced old man grabbed the right to speak. At the same time, for the first time, Yan Yuan blinked and motioned.


    Yan Yuan was stunned and had to return to the team.


    "Wang Aiqing! What''s the play!" Li Shimin said.


    "Wei Chen impeached Merton of Mojia village to fish for fame and tarnish the reputation of the late meritorious officials!" Wang Yushi said impassively.


    Yesterday, he was inspired by Chang sun Chong and was immediately excited. Wang Yushi failed to impeach Merton repeatedly. He has lost his imperial heart and is in a very worrying situation.


    Chang sun Chong''s promise gave him hope. If he could get the support of the Chang Sun family, he would still be able to regain his foothold in the court.


    "Tarnish the late hero?" Li Shimin was stunned!


    Li Shimin now has a headache when he hears the news of Merton. This little catfish can really toss, and every time it surprises people, it will also cause wind and rain all over the city.


    Last time, Li Shimin asked him to keep Sun Simiao in Chang''an. As a result, Merton hyped in Ink magazine about filial piety for his mother and advised women to learn medicine. The effect was not very good. Even Princess Changle was encouraged, and ten cows could not be pulled back to learn medicine for Empress Chang sun. Now Li Shimin hates Merton with itching teeth. It was only a few days, This guy didn''t stop and was impeached again.


    "The Mohist son is only 15 years old. He has never seen the dead Du Xiang four people at all. How can he draw the portraits of the four people, but he is fishing for fame and reputation and painting at the door. Lingyan Pavilion is the place where the emperor specially rewards the founding heroes. If the portraits of Du Xiang four people are perfunctory, it will be the greatest disrespect for Du Xiang four people!" the Royal historian Wang was filled with indignation.


    "What Lord Wang said!" suddenly many ministers nodded and seconded, especially some literary ministers, who were deeply favored by Du Ruhui before. Now when they heard Wang Yushi say so, they agreed one by one.


    "If I were to say that Lord Yan should be allowed to draw the portrait of Lingyan Pavilion at that time, this would not happen!" a minister who made friends with Yan Liben strongly praised Yan Liben.


    "Although the Mohists are talented, they are young and can''t bear the heavy responsibility!" some ministers have long despised Merton''s soaring achievements and slandered him.


    Pound whispered in Li Shimin''s ear and said the news that Mohist Zi was rejected by three and Yin Kaishan''s widow was stunned. Li Shimin immediately had a headache and asked Merton to draw the portrait of Lingyan Pavilion. He nodded in person. Now it seems that he was negligent!


    Qin Qiong saw that Merton was pushed down by the wall. She couldn''t help being anxious. She couldn''t help saying, "as far as I know, Merton was rejected at all, and it can''t be called tarnishing Du Xiang''s reputation!"


    "Oh! Of course I have to refuse. Yunjie mansion opened the middle door to invite mojiazi in, but it made Yunjie''s widow dizzy!"


    Wang Yushi retorted that many courtiers focused on Yan Yuan for a moment.


    "Micro Minister Yin Yuanshen... See your majesty!" Yan Yuan also went to court for the first time, and his nervous words were incomplete.


    "Yin Aiqing has been wronged. After I leave the court, I will go to Yunjie mansion to visit your mother!" Li Shimin comforted.


    "No, don''t go! My father''s painting has been painted, and my mother''s condition has healed without medicine!" Yan Yuan said everything in a hurry.


    "Young after all!"


    It''s a great honor for the emperor to come to the door in person, and Yin Yuan directly let Li Shimin not go. Sure enough, like the Mohist, these young people are hairless and can''t handle affairs well. Before everyone sighed, they were shocked by the second half of Yin yuan''s sentence!


    "Finished?"


    For a moment, the man Dynasty was stunned!


    "Yes, Lord Mo came to the door yesterday to draw the portrait of my father, and Wei Chen has brought it!" Yin yuan raised the scroll in his hand.


    Old lady Yin wanted to make friends with Merton and let Yan Yuan go to court this time to correct Merton''s name and naturally prepare everything. What could better prove Merton''s innocence than what she saw with her own eyes.


    "Present it quickly!" Li Shimin said eagerly.


    He even went down the Dragon chair without waiting for Yan Yuan to present it, took the float from Yan Yuan, Li Shimin took it, couldn''t wait to open it, and all the ministers surrounded him.


    When the scroll was opened, a lifelike general in military uniform appeared in front of everyone.


    "Yin Kaishan!" Li Shimin suddenly exclaimed.


    Many courtiers present were old courtiers who followed Li Shimin. They recognized at a glance that the person in the painting was Li Shimin''s most painful regret, Yin Kaishan.


    While everyone was shocked, they could not help but be shocked. They all realized a serious problem. Mo Jiazi actually painted a person he had never seen before. How did he do it.


    Hearing Li Shimin''s exclamation, Wang Yushi immediately felt like being struck by lightning. His body was stiff and couldn''t believe it. He looked at Yan Yuan, who was pushed to the outside by the ministers.


    Brother, why didn''t you say it earlier! Wang Yushi wanted to cry without tears.


    Yan Yuan reluctantly spread his hand. I was ready to say it the first time. Didn''t you rob it?

 Chapter 138

    Early in the morning, Merton walked into the Imperial College in the face of the first rising sun.


    During this period of time, Merton took the opportunity to take a lot of leave to draw the portrait of Lingyan Pavilion, which made Qin Huaiyu jealous. Even Merton felt that he was too absent from class. If he couldn''t come again, Kong Yingda would be angry!


    So after painting the portrait of Yin Kaishan, the Duke of Yun Festival, Merton automatically thought that his task had been completed and consciously came to the Imperial College. As for the portraits of the three families, who loved painting and who painted, Merton was not so generous and came to the door in person after being humiliated.


    As soon as Merton entered, he found strange eyes around him. Both the doorman and the students looked at Merton with complex eyes.


    Obviously, Merton was rejected by the third party and the news that Yunjie Gong''s widow was stunned has been spread all over the Imperial College.


    Merton showed a trace of irony around his mouth, ignored the strange eyes around him, and walked to bingshe school by himself.


    "Du Xiang is a model for our students in the Imperial College. The Mo family even used his reputation to fish for fame! It''s really hateful! Xiong Maolin is ashamed of his classmates for chasing fame and wealth by such unscrupulous means."


    In house C, Xiong Maolin, with a righteous face, angrily denounced Merton. He couldn''t wait to jump out when he saw Merton suffer this time.


    "Not only that! He didn''t give up. After being rejected by Duke Jiang Zhong and Duke Zou, he also extended his claws to Duke Yunjie, bullied others'' orphans and widowed mothers, and directly stunned Duke Yunjie''s widow to the ground! He was so crazy that our generation was ashamed to be with him."


    Wang Ling adds something to the story. He was originally a student of Jiashe, but he went to bingshe to slander Merton.


    Merton now has two amulets, one is the identity of marquis, the other is the identity of the imperial college student. Chang sun Chong''s plan is not only to attack Merton on the court hall, but also under the double control. Even the Imperial College will not let go. He will thoroughly stink Merton and never turn over. Now he will hit it off with the Wang family''s father and son, which leads to today''s scene.


    "Merton himself is not wrong, but just acting under orders. Visiting the door to paint is his task. It''s not like fishing for fame and tarnishing Du Xiang''s reputation!" Kong huisuo frowned and retorted.


    "Why not? Where was Merton four years ago? I''m afraid he was still eating bran and swallow vegetables in the Mojia village! Not to mention the Duke of Yun who has died for ten years. Merton''s painting is powerful, but he can''t draw a person he''s never seen out of thin air!" Wang Ling wantonly slandered Merton. In his opinion, Merton could not turn over this time because he had offended the four princes at once.


    Kong huisuo and others were angry and wanted to refute Merton, but they had no confidence in themselves.


    "Really? How do you know I can''t draw!" a voice sounded behind him.


    "Merton!" Kong huisuo and others were surprised to see Merton.


    "Are you all right?" Zu Mingjun asked hurriedly.


    "Nothing!" Merton gave him a reassuring look.


    "Merton, you dare to come to the Imperial College! Even if you''re unlucky, you''ll even affect the reputation of the Imperial College! It''s crazy," Wang Ling scolded.


    "Merton, we have reported to the toastmaster. We must expel you from the Imperial College. If you are still a little ashamed, pack up and leave!" Xiong Maolin''s face was exposed. He hid when he saw Merton. Now he thought he was in power and turned his face immediately.


    "Well, it''s a pity that I have drawn the portrait of Yun Jie Gong!" Merton looked sorry for them.


    "Hahaha! Merton, you''re still a dead duck. If you can draw it, you don''t have to wrap it up. I''ll wrap it up and leave!" Xiong Maolin saw Merton''s bad luck. His excited face turned red and blurted out.


    "Merton, no, the Ministry of punishment is coming to catch you!" Qin Huaiyu hurried in and said in shock.


    They went to find Merton first, but fuber told him that Merton had gone to the Imperial College. The three hurried to the gate of the Imperial College and found that the people of the Ministry of punishment were looking for Merton at the gate of the Imperial College.


    "Ah!" everyone was shocked.


    "Hahaha, Merton, it''s up to you to argue this time. If you can turn over this time, I''ll take your last name!" Wang Ling said with a grimace.


    "You''re looking for death!" Chumo punches Wang Ling on the cheek without saying a word. Wei Chi Baolin joins the war without saying a word. For a moment, bingsheton is in chaos.


    "Merton, now, we''ll stop you!" Qin Huaiyu took advantage of the confusion and hurried to pull Merton out. The three cooperated very tacitly. Obviously, this kind of thing was not done less, but he found that Merton didn''t move at all.


    "Don''t worry, I''ve really drawn it. It''ll be fine!" Merton was moved and said it again.


    "Really?"


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t believe looking at Merton. Even Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin, who were in the scuffle, were stunned. The scuffle stopped.


    "Hahaha, Merton, you really don''t shed tears when you don''t see the coffin. I hope you are so tough when you enter the prison of the Ministry of punishment!" Wang Ling wiped a handful of nose blood and said madly. He suffered the most in the scuffle just now.


    "Don''t bother you, then you will remember what you said!" Merton''s face remained unchanged and pointed to Xiong Maolin and Wang Ling.


    "Let''s go! Let''s see what the Ministry of punishment is looking for me!" Merton turned and walked to the gate of the Imperial College, and bingshe people followed up one after another.


    Seeing that Merton was full of confidence, Qin Huaiyu and others were anxious and helpless.


    "I''m Merton."


    As soon as I got to the gate of the Imperial College, I saw two officers of the Ministry of punishment waiting there anxiously and directly came forward to show their identity.


    "See Lord mo." the two were overjoyed and saluted, "Lord Mo, please move, my adults please!"


    "Your Lord?" Merton wondered.


    "My Lord is Lord Li, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment!" said the higher officer of the Ministry of punishment.


    "Li daozong, Lord Li!" the students of the Imperial College are very familiar with the court. Of course, they know the identity of the Minister of punishment.


    "Lord, please get in the car!"


    The slightly shorter officer waved and immediately a carriage stopped at the gate of the Imperial College.


    "What''s the matter? Mozi defiled the reputation of the four princes and humiliated the orphan and widowed mother of Yunjie. It''s such a felony. Shouldn''t he be admitted to shackles?" Wang Ling questioned.


    "Who told you that Lord Mo has tarnished the reputation of the Duke? Lord Mo has already painted a portrait of Duke Yun. Lord Li invited Lord Mo this time to draw a portrait of a poor and ferocious disciple with the help of Lord Mo''s peerless painting skills!" said the officer of the Ministry of punishment a little higher.


    "It''s drawn!" the words of the criminal Ministry''s Sergeant were like thunder, startling everyone in the Imperial College!


    "How is it possible to draw it?"


    Everyone looked at Merton with incredible. At this time, he remembered that Merton had said twice that he had painted it, but they didn''t believe it at all.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "How impossible? The MOH family was so divine that he faced the Yan Family and said proudly: I really haven''t seen Duke Yun Jie, but I can draw it through your eyes."


    An idle man pointed to his eyes and said vividly.


    "Ah! The mojiazi still has such immortal means!" the surrounding audience exclaimed. Although the government and mokan have been promoting the elimination of superstition, the legend of immortals and ghosts is still forbidden. For the same thing, the sensation caused by plain and light narration and adding some ghosts is quite different.


    "You''re wrong. It''s not the art of ghosts and gods at all. If you didn''t see it with your own eyes, I''m afraid everyone wouldn''t believe it. My cousin''s neighbor happened to be on duty in the Yan family, but what you saw with your own eyes can be called the unique skill of the Mohist family. At that time, the old lady Yin and several guards of the Duke Yun Jie described it personally. If the Mohist family had a God in his writing, he would brush the Duke Yun Jie with a few words The painting is lifelike, just like the Duke of Yun Festival is in front of him. "The excited hand and foot dance of the idle man is like visiting the scene in person.


    "But in Chang''an City, it is widely said that the Mohist son will faint the widow of Yun Jie Gong." some listeners wondered.


    "Where is Qi dizziness? Since the death of Duke Yun Jie, Yan''s thoughts have become ill. At first sight, he fainted excitedly when he saw the portrait of Duke Yun Jie. After Mohist Zi learned about it, he was greatly moved. He redrawn another one overnight and gave it to Yan. It is said that now Yan has seen the portrait of Duke Yun Jie, solved the disease of missing, and has healed without medicine." Xianhan said about the excitement, Dancing and dancing, people are also listening, and they are intoxicated.


    Yan''s healing without medicine may be too exaggerated, but it is confirmed from the side that Mohist Zi has created an incredible miracle, that is, he can draw a person he has never seen by dictation alone.


    Old lady Yin was open-minded. She knew how much criticism Merton had received. In order to repay Merton, she not only sent Yan Yuan to the court to help Merton personally, but also publicized the correction of Merton''s name in Chang''an city.


    Obviously, the idle man in front of us was inspired by Yunjie government. Otherwise, where else did we get such detailed information? Such idle men are everywhere in Chang''an city. Before the end of the early Dynasty, the news that Merton painted the portrait of Yunjie public has spread all over the streets.


    "Amazing skills!" everyone who heard it was fascinated.


    "I knew it was Mohist! How can we speculate about it?"


    A young man in his twenties patted his thigh and said excitedly that he had repeatedly created miracles in Merton, Chang''an city,

 Chapter 139

    With the end of the dynasty hall, the news that Yin Xiaoguo personally went to the court to correct the name of Mohist Zi also came quickly in Chang''an city


    At this time, the people of Chang''an city believed that the Mohist school had drawn the Yun Festival Duke they had never met.


    Then came the more powerful news. With the help of Mohist''s peerless painting skills, the Ministry of punishment broke the door killing case of Taiping square, which caused a sensation in Chang''an city a few days ago.


    "Big thief, fierce wolf, you know! His means are extremely cruel. He kills and sets fire to all evils, and he is very arrogant. Every time he commits a crime, he will leave a living mouth to deliver messages for him. However, this colleague is extremely cunning. He will lie dormant for several years and get away with it.


    It''s a pity that I met the Mohist family this time. The Mohist family said the appearance and characteristics of the thief and the fierce wolf, and the Mohist family painted it. According to the portrait, the people of the Ministry of punishment arrested the thief and the fierce wolf in less than two hours. "A storyteller in the restaurant said with dancing hands and feet.


    "Well, it''s so fast!" the diner immediately shouted.


    "MOH family, worthy of MOH family!"


    "Amazing!"


    The people in the restaurant couldn''t help but marvel. Who would have thought that mojiazi could really draw people he had never seen with the help of other people''s eyes


    Big reversal, big reversal.


    In one night, the reputation of the Mohist school went from the height of the sun to the crusade of thousands of people, but the Jedi rebounded and soared to the sky.


    "Young master, it''s still the old young master! It hasn''t changed at all, and it never disappoints people!" Mojia village and Mofu are also elated, sweeping away their previous grievances.


    "Eh, by the way, since the Mohists can draw people they have just seen, what about the Du family, Qu Tu family and Zhang Jia?" someone suddenly said.


    Everyone looked at each other. What should I do? Cold!


    As the news came one by one, Qu Tu''s family and Zhang Du''s family were suddenly struck by lightning.


    Yesterday, they also shut out mojiazi and let the whole Chang''an City see his jokes. How could they think that the earthly newspaper came so fast? Overnight, they became the biggest laughing stock of Chang''an city.


    The problem is that it doesn''t matter if they refuse Mohist school. They don''t pay attention to Mohist school with their status, but Merton is the Lingyan Pavilion painter personally sent by Li Shimin, which represents Li Shimin and makes Mohist School refuse. What do you think of Li Shimin? Do you refuse to go to Lingyan Pavilion!


    Since the death of the four princes, the four families have been going downhill. Ling Yange is the greatest guarantee for their prosperity for a hundred years. As long as their families do not commit chaos and the Tang Dynasty is here, they can continue to ensure their prosperity.


    It would be nice if the four families shut out the Mohist family at the same time, but the Yunjie government gave the Mohist family the opportunity to turn around, and the three Guogong aristocratic families had a big problem.


    Yan Fu.


    Yan Liben and Yan Xingjian sat on the soft couch, speechless, unable to calm down for a long time.


    "How could it be?" Yan Xingjian couldn''t believe it. He and Yan Liben both painted with charm. Of course, they knew that no one could draw a person they hadn''t seen out of thin air, but they didn''t expect that Mohist Zi found another way to draw a person out of thin air by using a close relative as a template and modifying the familiar population description.


    "Amazing skills!" Yan Liben exclaimed.


    After Merton didn''t become famous in Jiaosi workshop, Yan Liben was the first painter in the Tang Dynasty. He was not inferior to anyone in painting. However, the birth of Mohist and the amazing new painting skills made him realize that the original painting could still be so realistic. After continuous copying and practice, Yan Liben was confident that he had mastered this new painting skill, But the mojiazi shocked him again.


    "Uncle, can you do this!" Yan Xingjian asked.


    Yan Liben shook his head. Although he was a genius in painting, he had only learned new painting skills for more than a month, and could not reach such a level at all.


    "Fortunately, my uncle once met three princes, so I don''t have to be so troublesome." Yan Xingjian said happily.


    "My uncle has indeed seen the three princes, but it has been a long time, and many memories have been blurred. Du Xiang, who my uncle is most familiar with, is only four or five points similar. As for the other two princes, it would be good to be three points similar." Yan Liben said with a bitter smile.


    In fact, when Li Shimin ordered the construction of Lingyan Pavilion at that time, he was the first choice of painters. On the one hand, he didn''t accept the delay because he had just learned new painting skills and couldn''t reach Merton''s level at all. On the other hand, he was keenly aware of the problems of the portraits of these deceased heroes, especially Yin Kaishan, the Duke of Yun Festival. He really didn''t see it.


    "Three points?" Yan Xingjian said bitterly.


    The portrait of the Duke of Yun Jie painted by Mohist school made Yin family faint excitedly. It can be imagined how similar it was. The three-thirds similarity and its comparison obviously could not satisfy Qu Tu family and Zhang Jia.


    "Go and tell the three families that if the Mo family doesn''t have this unique skill of painting out of thin air, uncle is duty bound to help. Now that the Mo family has this unique skill, I don''t need to make a fool of myself," Yan Liben said.


    "Ah!" Yan Xingjian was stunned.


    In order to revenge Merton, he lied to the three families. On the one hand, he assured them that his uncle would be able to draw a portrait. On the other hand, he told Yan Liben that the three families asked Yan Liben for help. I''m afraid neither side has given an explanation now!


    "Let''s go! The three families will understand. After you finish this, you can go back to your hometown!" Yan Liben is also a shrewd man. He has already noticed Yan Xingjian''s trick. At first, he promised to paint portraits for the three families. On the one hand, he didn''t believe that Mozi could draw the three princes out of thin air. On the other hand, he also had a quarrel. In the end, Mozi had to help them close the stall by himself, Regain the position that once belonged to his own painting world.


    Yan Xingjian was shocked when he heard the speech! He knew that his uncle had given him up. I''m afraid I''ll never have a chance to return to Chang''an city.


    "Hahaha! Merton, your boy really deserves his reputation. If it weren''t for your boy''s unique skill, how could you catch this colleague so easily!" Li daozong, dressed in black and strong, walked out of the door of the Ministry of punishment and spoke highly of Merton.


    A ferocious man who had been at large for a long time and shamed Chang''an city was arrested in an hour, which broke the record of the Ministry of justice, which also greatly increased his face.


    "The Lord flattered me. I dare not take credit for it. It''s all due to the effective deployment of the Ministry of punishment, and the Lord''s command is good." Merton said modestly.


    "Don''t be modest, but your painting skills are very useful for solving cases. I don''t know..." Li daozong said shyly. In this era, the tools for solving cases are extremely simple. There are no photos or monitoring. It is all based on human and material evidence. Moreover, once the criminals escape, it is difficult to catch them. Having a special portrait artist to draw the criminals is really too useful for identifying and arresting criminals.


    "Don''t worry, Lord. After a while, Lord will send some experts. Boy, promise to give them everything." Merton patted his chest and promised.


    "Good!" Li daozong looked at Merton more and more. He found that the boy was really destined to the Ministry of punishment. If he was older, he would certainly bring him to the Ministry of punishment.


    "Lord! Lord Mo!"


    Merton and Li daozong had just walked out of the door of the Ministry of punishment. Two middle-aged men in royal clothes greeted them with a flattering face.


    "Qu tushou, Zhang Xiangxiang!" Li daozong frowned when he saw them and looked at them with a smile.


    When Merton heard their names, he suddenly realized that the new Duke Jiang Zhong and Duke Zou had come.


    "Lord Mo, we have two eyes and don''t know Mount Tai. We have come to apologize!" they said in the same voice.

 Chapter 140

    "You two are old enough to live in a dog''s stomach!" Li daozong was angry when he saw the two men''s courteous appearance.


    Qu tushou and Zhang Xiangxiang are both in their 30s and 40s. They are also high-ranking and powerful at ordinary times. In front of Li daozong, they can only be submissive and bow down.


    "What Uncle Li taught me was that my nephew had no eyes and wronged brother Mo!" Zhang Daxiang confessed that he was a bachelor.


    Zhang Xiangxiang''s name is powerful. Not only that, his two younger brothers, Zhang Dasu and Zhang Daan, are estimated to be on the genealogy and rank among the big generation. It''s really hard to name them.


    Qu tushou also made amends again and again. Li daozong was not only a royal family, but also made great achievements in war. His status was too high. Qu tushou could only listen.


    "Merton, these two fools, I have scolded them. I have the cheek to ask them for mercy! Don''t give them general knowledge!" Li daozong glared at them and begged Merton.


    "Lord Mo, my parents and my father share the feeling of robe. I also ask Lord Mo to forgive me for the old feelings of our ancestors." Zhang Daxiang said earnestly.


    "Just talk!" Li daozong snorted coldly.


    Qu tushou suddenly took out a yellow document from his arms and handed it over.


    "Title deed?" Li daozong took a look and raised his eyebrows.


    "We know that the Mohist experimental field is experimenting with new crops, and even your majesty is full of praise, but the 100 mu is too small. I''m afraid it will delay your Majesty''s great event. We happen to have 400 mu of land adjacent to the Mohist experimental field. We specially give it to the Mohist experimental field. We can repay your Majesty''s great kindness to us." Qu tushou was very open-minded. He made an apology to Merton, but let Merton take no responsibility.


    To tell the truth, 400 mu of land is nothing to the two governments, but these fields are all close to Chang''an City, which is particularly rare. Not to mention that they can get the land adjacent to the Mohist experimental field, which shows their sincerity.


    The two great princes came to the door and softened themselves. It can be said that they gave Merton enough face. In addition, Li Dao''s family begged for mercy, Merton was not easy to handle.


    "You two are welcome. You two have devoted your whole life to the country. It''s my duty and obligation to draw pictures for the two old countries. As for these generous gifts, Mo is really ashamed to accept them." Merton refused.


    "Why don''t you accept it? If you don''t, how can these two fools have a long memory? Besides, the Mohist experimental field cultivated high-yield seeds one day earlier, which is the greatest blessing of the people of the Tang Dynasty." Li daozong took over the title deed without waiting for Merton''s refusal.


    "Don''t worry, this is the compensation you deserve. It''s not taking bribes. I''m sure you won''t do anything at all." Li daozong promised in a low voice.


    Merton smiled bitterly. Now he remembered the evaluation of the prince in history. He loved money very much. Since Li daozong had taken over, Merton couldn''t refuse again.


    Seeing that Merton did not refuse again, Zhang Daxiang and Qu tushou were also relieved.


    "I don''t know when Lord Mo will have time. We''ll come to ask for advice in person." Zhang dashou held his posture very low.


    "What time do you have to wait? I think it''s ok now," Li daozong said simply.


    "I wonder if it''s convenient for brother Mo?" Qu tushou asked. He was also anxious. The sooner he solved this matter, the sooner he would restore the reputation of Jiang Zhong''s mansion.


    Merton thought about it. When he came to help the Ministry of punishment draw a portrait this time, the painters, painters and papers were all complete, so he nodded and said, "I don''t have anything down here. Just I need several people close to the two old princes to dictate when I want to paint."


    "Don''t worry, brother Mo, we''ve already arrived!" Zhang Daxiang pointed to several carriages that had been waiting nearby. They had already learned about the conditions of Merton''s painting from Yan''s population and prepared in advance.


    "Wang is also familiar with the two old friends and should be able to help!" Li said.


    In that case, what else can Merton say? He immediately borrowed the territory of the Ministry of punishment and started work directly.


    When Zhang Xiangxiang and Qu tushou took the portraits of Qu tutong and Zhang Gongjin, thanked Merton repeatedly and left in tears, the whole Chang''an city focused on the Laiguo government.


    So far, twenty-three portraits of twenty-four meritorious officials in Lingyan Pavilion have been completed, leaving only the portrait of Du Ruhui, the Duke of Lai, unfinished. Everyone is watching what Du Fu is going to do.


    "Bad son!"


    In the Laiguo government, Du''s angry face hated iron and steel. Du he knelt in front of Du Ruhui''s spirit.


    At this time, Du he looked defeated and no longer had the arrogance and domineering of yesterday. Bad news came one after another. First, Yan Yuan, who thought he was a fool, went to the court to prove the innocence of the Mohist family, and then Yan Liben refused to paint, cutting off his last way back. In addition, the opposition of Duke Jiang Zhong and Duke Zou directly put the Duke of Lai on the cusp of the storm.


    "I don''t believe that Mozi dared not draw a picture of his father!" Du he still said hard.


    "The Mo family doesn''t dare, but every day he delays, our Du family will become the laughing stock of Chang''an city one more day, and we will lose an imperial heart. Your father''s hard-working reputation will be destroyed." Du said sadly.


    "Don''t worry, sister-in-law. The most urgent thing now is to get the forgiveness of the Mohist school as soon as possible and draw the portrait of the second brother as soon as possible. In this way, we can restore the reputation of the Du family." Du Chuke comforted that he was Du Ruhui''s younger brother. Du invited him to discuss such a big matter in the Laiguo government at the first time.


    "Everything depends on my uncle!" Du said helplessly.


    Du Chuke thought for a moment and said, "as far as I know, Qu tushou and Zhang Xiangxiang took out 400 mu of land adjacent to the Mohist experimental field under the intercession of the king of Jiangxia. This is the end of the matter."


    "Four hundred mu of land is simple, and my Du family can take it out." Du hurriedly said.


    "Don''t worry, sister-in-law. Since you want to show the sincerity of my Du family, naturally you can''t be the same as the reparations of their two families. I remember that the Du family still has a house near the Imperial College, and the Mohist hospital is preparing for the women''s medical school for the queen''s illness. It''s better to take this house as an reparation, so that the Mohist family can''t refuse."


    The land near the Imperial College was very valuable, but Du didn''t feel distressed at the moment. He directly asked the housekeeper to take out the land deed and give it to Du Chuke.


    "The reason for this is hol. I''m afraid..."


    Du Shi looked at Du he, closed his eyes sadly and said, "please tell Lord Mo that he Er will return to his old house to be filial to his late husband for three years from now on."


    "Mother!" Du he looked at his mother in amazement and went back to the old house to be filial for three years. Doesn''t that mean he can''t come to Chang''an City in three years. Accustomed to the prosperity of Chang''an City, it''s hard for him to kill him with a pen in his hometown.


    Looking at his mother''s firm expression, he knew that his mother was serious, bowed his head decadent, and his jealousy of Merton reached the peak.


    Du Chuke opened his mouth. He originally wanted to ask Du he to come to the door to make amends himself. Unexpectedly, Du Shi made such a heavy hand.


    But looking at Du he, who was still unconvinced, Du Chuke still felt that Du''s approach was right. Otherwise, the boy could not tell what moths would come out in the future.


    Unfortunately, if Du and Du Chuke knew that Du he encouraged Li Chengqian to revolt and almost destroyed the Du family, they might strangle him now.


    That night, Du Chuke came to apologize in person. After Merton learned about Du Fu''s apology and Du he''s punishment, he knew Du Fu''s sincerity.


    Merton also wanted to solve the storm as soon as possible. He drew Du Ruhui''s portrait with Du Chuke as a template overnight.


    So far, the portraits of the twenty-four meritorious heroes of Lingyan Pavilion have been completed.

 Chapter 141

    In the back garden, a hundred flowers are in full bloom, colorful and colorful, and the scenery is beautiful.


    The weather in April was already very warm. Even the frail empress Chang Sun took off her thick clothes and took advantage of the good weather to visit the back garden.


    No, it''s not playing, but doing Wuqinxi with a straight face! And behind him, Li Shimin followed clumsily!


    Empress Chang sun only felt refreshed and energetic when she continued to do a set of Wuqinxi.


    "Guanyin maidservant! How do you feel?" Li Shimin asked, holding empress Chang sun with a loving look on his face.


    "Doctor sun''s medical skills are really brilliant. My concubine obviously feels that she is much better. Especially after practicing Wuqinxi every day, the chest tightness has been very slight!" empress Chang sun gasped.


    Wuqinxi is exactly what Sun Simiao suggested that empress changsun insist on exercising. In this era, there is no health and fitness method such as Taijiquan. Wuqinxi is almost the only choice. However, empress changsun''s Wuqinxi is the most simplified version due to her weak body. Rao is so. If she persists for a while, the effect is very remarkable.


    "Empress mother, wipe your sweat!" said the Jinyang princess, standing on tiptoe and handing the silk scarf to the empress changsun. She looked very cute.


    "Yuzi is so nice!" empress Chang Sun took the silk scarf lovingly and praised it.


    "Hee hee!" Princess Jinyang was praised and was very happy.


    "Well, go over there and play with your sister!" said the eldest Sun Queen.


    "My sister has been reading and doesn''t play with me at all!" said Princess Jinyang wrongfully. She pointed to the brocade stool and held Princess Changle, who is studying the Yellow Emperor''s Internal Classic.


    "This child?" the eldest Sun Queen had a headache on her face. Since she saw the event of the women''s medical school published in the ink magazine, Princess Changle insisted on learning medicine and kept her medical books all day. That''s enough. She also got a lot of medicinal materials in her bedroom.


    "Is she also filial?" Li Shimin said. In fact, he wanted to beat up Merton. He wanted to build a women''s medical school. He wanted territory, honor and money... Er, didn''t give it. In short, he helped a lot, but Merton cheated his daughter.


    "Hahaha, this Mo Xiaoming is so funny!" at this time, a crazy laughter came from the nearby flowers. A young man in royal clothes smiled and rolled around with his stomach.


    "Li Zhi!" Li Shimin shouted angrily.


    "Ah!" Li Zhi was startled and showed his face from behind the flowers.


    Empress Chang sun secretly touched Li Shimin, looked at Li Zhi and said kindly, "young slave, come to the queen mother. Who is mo Xiaoming? How can you be so happy!"


    "Empress mother, Mo Xiaoming is the matchmaker in this book. He is unlucky. He is always driven out of school by the master!"


    Li Zhi immediately ran to empress Chang sun with excitement. He held a book in his hand. There was an exaggerated smiling face on the cover. At a glance, it was very similar to the big embarrassing words.


    "Mo Xiaoming!" Li Shimin couldn''t help twitching when he heard the name. Obviously, it was the boy who made it. However, Li Shimin only blamed Merton half. These comic ideas were indeed provided by Merton. At that time, they were only published on the ink magazine, and they were just a few pictures to talk about. Moreover, they were dry matchmakers, and the response was not strong.


    But it was the combination of Ziyi and Mo San that really gathered and printed into a book. Ziyi directly combined the embarrassing face portrait taught by Merton with Xiaoming''s cold joke Series in order to make it popular.


    "Comics!" empress Chang Sun took over the book from Li Zhi. The two big characters of comics and a big embarrassing smile on the cover were impressive and unforgettable at a glance. Obviously, this is what Merton taught Ziyi according to the famous big tall smiling face of later generations.


    "Empress mother, this is mo Xiaoming, also known as embarrassing Ming. He''s always funny. I like him very much!" Li Zhi said excitedly, pointing to the embarrassing way on the cover. He didn''t notice that Li Shimin''s face was getting darker and darker.


    The empress Chang sun was interested and childlike. She thought it was fun and opened the book with great interest.


    "Mother, look at this!" Li Zhi excitedly pointed to one of the cartoons.


    "Master Mo said that in Chinese characters, there must be water with three points of water, such as river, river, lake and sea.


    Jiong Ming: desert!


    Master Mo: get out!


    Jiong Ming: I didn''t see water when I rolled!


    Master Mo: get out. "


    As Li Zhi read, he laughed.


    In order not to cause disputes, Mo San directly put all the background characters in Mojia village.


    Seeing such a reversal of the plot, empress Chang sun not only covered her mouth and burst into laughter. In this era, they have seen such cold jokes, let alone with illustrations. Almost no one can stop these stems.


    "Empress mother, my son also wants to see it." Princess Jinyang surrounded her curiously.


    "Come here, I''ll tell you!" Li Zhi said with a bad smile.


    Princess Jinyang looked happy and came over unprepared.


    "Ah!" Li Zhi shouted in Jinyang princess''s ear and startled Jinyang.


    "Bad brother!" Jinyang chased Li Zhi angrily and beat him.


    "What are all the paintings of Mohist school? It''s a mess, not to teach bad children?" Li Shimin said with a black face.


    If Merton hears it, he may be wronged. This is the purest plot he has selected. If it is really as dirty as later generations, Li Shimin may have killed him.


    "Your Majesty, you are mistaken. This little catfish should be called small loach. No, it is more slippery than loach. He picked himself very clean." empress Chang sun pointed to the words that minors behind are forbidden to buy or read with adults.


    "Then, where did the book" child slave "come from?" Li Shimin''s face slowed down and suddenly realized a very important problem.


    Princess Changle, who was reading a medical book, looked at Li Zhi quickly.


    "Yes, it''s the eldest sister''s, with the autograph of my idol goddess in purple on it." unfortunately, Li Zhi is a counsellor. He was stared by Li Shimin and sold Li Lizhi in the twinkling of an eye.


    "Purple?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "She is from Mohist village and a friend of her daughter? She drew these comics and specially gave them to her daughter. When the young slaves saw them, they had to pester them!" Princess Changle explained with a guilty heart.


    "Where is a copy? Several royal brothers have it." Li Zhi sells it thoroughly. He can''t just let himself be unlucky.


    "Hmm!" Li Shimin frowned and immediately killed Chongwen hall. Suddenly, there was a chicken flying and dogs jumping in Chongwen hall. A meal of bamboo shoots with meat was indispensable.


    Such scenes are constantly staged in Chang''an city. With the passage of time, the storm caused by comics gradually ferments in Guanzhong area.

 Chapter 142

    Merton didn''t know that so many things had happened in the palace because of a comic book. When he excitedly went to hand over the paintings of 24 meritorious heroes to Li Shimin, he not only didn''t get any praise, but was scolded bloody.


    "Hey!"


    Morton walked out of the palace dejectedly, and secretly said that Li Shimin was stingy. Isn''t it a cartoon? Compared with the violent violence of later generations, this cartoon has been pure like a little white rabbit.


    "Merton!"


    Merton was depressed, but vaguely heard someone calling him. He looked up and looked around, but he didn''t find a figure.


    "This way?" a man''s head appeared in the corner of the right palace.


    "Lizhi!" Merton looked at the sneaky figure. It was clear that it was Lizhi, the kid outside Chongwen hall. He looked up behind him and looked up at the sky. He pretended to be an unseen eunuch. Merton walked over in doubt.


    "See... Lords!"


    Merton originally wanted to say to see the king of Jin, but when he turned around, he found that there were several princes such as Li Zhen and Li you in the corner.


    "I don''t know what''s important for you?" Merton asked.


    "Ziyi is from your Mo mansion, isn''t she?" Li you was about eleven or twelve years old, but he pretended to be an adult.


    Merton nodded. There was nothing to hide. Anyway, he had been scolded by Li Shimin.


    "That''s good. Now you can help me give these comics to Ziyi and ask her to sign for me!" Li you took out four or five comics from his arms and photographed them in Merton''s hands.


    "These are sister Huang''s!" Li Zhen put a pile of comics in Merton''s arms.


    As soon as Merton looked up, he saw the palace wall not far away, and the colorful corners of his clothes flashed by.


    "No, no!" Merton quickly waved his hand. He had just been scolded by Li Shimin. Now if he was helping them to sign, Li Shimin wouldn''t eat him.


    "Don''t worry! These books belong to the empress mother and several empresses. They will keep you safe." Li Zhi took out several comic books from his arms and stacked them on it.


    Merton was skeptical and looked at such a pile of comics.


    "At that time, I will ask the prince to confirm. If you dare to cheat me, all of them will be confiscated!" Merton pointed to several people and warned.


    "Don''t worry!" Li Zhi patted his chest and promised.


    Merton doesn''t know how boring life in the harem is. The emergence of comics is almost as popular as the early popularity of later television. Few people can resist its power. The author of the cartoon, Ziyi, has simply become an idol in the hearts of teenagers. Now there is no name for a beautiful girl painter, otherwise its popularity will be higher.


    "Cough!"


    Merton came out of the corner with a large pile of comics, looked at the little eunuch who was still looking at the sky, and pretended: "Your Majesty, just criticized Weichen and let Weichen wake up. There are these books in the corner that people don''t want to make progress, so he took them away by the way, so as not to be picked up by the young prince, indulge in them and delay his studies."


    Whether the eunuch will sue or not, Merton still thinks it''s better to be safe. He doesn''t believe Li Zhi''s behavior. Li Shimin won''t know.


    After asking Li Chengqian at that time, if there is such a thing and there is empress Chang sun, there will be no worry. If not, Hei hei! Then I''d rather offend the prince than the emperor.


    Remembering Li Shimin''s black face, Merton trembled in his heart and hurriedly ran out of the rosefinch gate. He was relieved that he didn''t see a bodyguard chasing him behind.


    Mo Fu.


    Merton just got out of the carriage and just saw Ziyi hurrying out.


    "Young master, if you see Mo San, say you don''t see me!" Ziyi said and hurried to the door.


    Merton looked confused and puzzled at fuber waiting in the porter.


    "It''s not the cartoon that caused the disaster. It''s said that Mo San has been printed three times in a row. It''s still in short supply. Mo San decided to take advantage of the situation to launch the second volume and has come to Ziyi to urge the manuscript several times." Fubo said helplessly.


    Merton suddenly ordered tiean, who was holding the ink magazine.


    "Send these to Ziyi''s room and ask her to sign when she is free."


    Tie''an nodded, followed Merton and walked into the ink house with a pile of comic books.


    "By the way, young master, Dr. Shen, the Imperial College, has been waiting for you for a long time!" Fubo reminded.


    "Shen Hongcai, doctor Shen?" Merton said in surprise.


    Fuber nodded.


    Merton wondered what Shen Hongcai wanted from him.


    "Master! Why are you here?"


    In the living room, Merton saw that Shen Hongcai was tasting tea and holding a cartoon in his hand. He hurried forward.


    "I have collected ten copies of this book in my class today! Why do you think I came here!" Shen Hongcai closed the cartoon in his hand and said slowly.


    "Ah!" Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect that Guozi supervisor had people who liked comics.


    "It''s just entertainment. I didn''t expect to disturb the master!" Merton quickly admitted his mistake. Anyway, the cartoon caused trouble.


    "It''s really a pastime. I''m not an old-fashioned person. I didn''t take it to heart, but you should be careful. Many people in the Imperial College have a lot of opinions about comics." Shen Hongcai said.


    "Thank you for reminding me!" Morton said gratefully.


    But Merton didn''t care too much. After all, there is no illegal content in comics. At most, it is equivalent to the impact of future extracurricular books on students. There are both advantages and disadvantages! Moreover, only this comic book was published and finished in a quarter of an hour. Even if it is harmful, it can''t turn over the waves.


    Seeing that Merton didn''t take it to heart, Shen Hongcai didn''t say much, but took out a book from the table, handed it to Merton and motioned Merton to watch.


    "Math? Master has compiled it?" Merton said in surprise.


    "It''s not so fast! It''s just the compilation of the first school year''s mathematics." Shen Hongcai said modestly, but a complacent smile appeared on his face.


    Merton opened the book in his hand and looked at the familiar simple number operation.


    Although simple, it is of great significance. Compared with the obscurity of the ten classics of mathematics, the new mathematics is very suitable for beginners.


    "It''s a blessing for hundreds of millions of students to have this mathematics, and it''s a great contribution to the promotion of mathematics!" Merton praised sincerely.


    "Mo San!" Merton shouted to Mo San, who had already been waiting outside the court.


    "Young master!" Mo San hurried in when he heard the speech.


    "The second comic book will be published after the limelight has passed. Now the publishing house is working hard to print the book," Merton said.


    "Mathematics?" Mo San looked at the result and wondered.


    "First print out two thousand copies, and then send them back to Mojia village and Chang''an city. It is required that under the age of 30 must study and be assessed once a quarter." Merton originally printed only 1500 copies, and thought about the upcoming women''s medical school, he just added 500 copies.


    "I''m here to thank the Mohists for their help." Shen Hongcai got up and thanked. He heard it with his own ears. Merton spared no effort to promote mathematics.


    "What students should do at that time."


    It was Merton who pushed Shen Hongcai into the pit. Naturally, he also wanted to push him out.

 Chapter 143

    The release of comics has formed two extremes in Chang''an city. One is young people, who simply worship God and love it. On the other hand, it has aroused the opposition of the master.


    In this era of the Tang Dynasty, books are scarce resources. Although block printing has spread, more than ten printing houses have opened in Chang''an City alone, and the prices of various books have fallen sharply, the use of valuable paper on seemingly useless comics still arouses criticism from many people.


    Fortunately, Merton asked Mo San to print and refresh the new mathematics, and the second comic book was suspended, which slightly reduced the trend of comic books.


    "Women''s medical school has enrolled students!"


    Once the news that caused a sensation in the whole city spread, it immediately detonated the whole city, which saved the cartoon from the vortex of public opinion.


    "Women can go to school? It''s like a hen in the morning!" a Taoist priest with gray hair and long beard saw young women around him walking to the Imperial College under the leadership of his elders and shaking his head.


    Suddenly, many people looked at the immortal old Taoist in surprise. A young man asked, "Taoist priest has just come to Chang''an city!"


    The old Taoist raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "how do you know that I have just returned from the south of the Yangtze River."


    "The old man doesn''t know something. The female medical school has been granted permission by his majesty. Sun Simiao, a miracle doctor, personally teaches medical skills and specializes in training female doctors. No one knows it in Chang''an city!" the young man explained.


    "Sun Simiao is familiar with the old way, but even so, if a woman shows up in public, it''s not a bad reputation, that is, learning medicine can''t ignore the defense of men and women, and this avenue of human relations should be observed." the old Taoist frowned.


    "What you''re worried about, father-in-law, has long been taken into account by mojiazi. In addition to doctor sun''s teaching of medicine, the rest of the women''s medical college are taught by his female disciples. In addition, they adopt closed management. They all use female officials in the palace. They have to be picked up by their parents every month." the young man gushed and described in detail the regulations of mojiazi hospital one by one, It''s like the back of your hand.


    For women''s Medical College, Merton took great pains to directly apply all kinds of closed management in future generations to women''s Medical College, which dispelled the doubts of the people in Chang''an city.


    "I can trust doctor sun''s character naturally, but what you said about the Mexican family is..."


    "What, don''t you know Mohist? He is..." the young man''s eyes lit up and talked about all kinds of deeds of Merton.


    "You mean that the sheep immortals are flying in the sky, and Chang''an city is what the Mohists did?" the old Taoist''s eyes lit up.


    "The Taoist priest misunderstood. Where is the sheep fairy? It''s clearly the Kongming lamp put by the Mohist school?" the young man explained.


    "Yang Xian took off, witch doctors harmed people, and the law of drought resistance. I didn''t expect that poor yuan Shoucheng would leave Chang''an City for only a few years? Such a person should appear in Chang''an city." the old Taoist sighed and left.


    "Yuan Shoucheng?" the young man thought for a long time. It seemed that he had heard the name in that place.


    "Old immortal yuan!"


    After a long time, the young man remembered yuan Shoucheng''s legendary deeds, turned around and looked around, but found that there was no trace of Yuan Shoucheng. He couldn''t help sighing. It would be great if the old immortal could help him calculate a divination by taking this opportunity!


    The young man sighed and went to the Imperial College. Today is the enrollment day of women''s Medical College. It must be very lively.


    "Hurry!" Qin Huaiyu took the lead and ran to the champion building.


    "Don''t run so fast!" Merton panted. Although Merton didn''t practice Wuqinxi less, he couldn''t compare with Qin Huaiyu, who played and boiled his body every day. As for the weaker Zu Mingjun, he had already been thrown away.


    "After today, these female doctors will never come out again, and there is no chance to see them!" Chumo said excitedly.


    Wei Chi Baolin smiled and rushed into the champion building without delay.


    Merton looked at the three walking hormones silently. Today, the women''s medical school enrolled students, but the Constable of Wannian County closed three streets and only women were allowed to enter. The location of the champion building was good. The three people ran here after they left the school.


    Merton stepped into the champion building and found something wrong. Qin Huaiyu, the first three to enter, was standing there obediently. Next to the private room on the second floor, pound in plain clothes was staring at Merton with a smile on his face.


    "Er!"


    Since pound is here, Li Shimin must also be there. Merton had to obediently follow pound into the private room.


    In the private room.


    Merton and the four stood in a row consciously, but surprisingly, Li Shimin just looked at the four, but hung them aside, talking and laughing with an old Taoist with a child''s face and hair.


    After a long time, the two turned their attention to the Merton four.


    "What did you say you wanted to see?" Li Shimin sneered.


    "No, nothing!"


    "Just come for dinner!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The four quickly waved their hands and apologized. They were so frightened that their faces were ashen.


    "Your Majesty, don''t be angry. After all, it''s a young man''s nature and likes to join in the fun." the old Taoist priest said to help.


    "Hum! For Taoist yuan''s sake, I''ll let you go this time." Li Shimin surprisingly let the four people go, which made Merton suddenly realize that the old way in front of him was not simple.


    "Thank you, Taoist priest." Merton pressed down his doubts and quickly thanked the Taoist priest in unison with the four people.


    "This is Taoist yuan Shoucheng. Just now, Taoist yuan was still betting with me that the four of you would come here today. Unexpectedly, Taoist yuan was really clever." Li Shimin said with admiration.


    Yuan Shoucheng!


    Merton was shocked when he heard the speech. He was a powerful figure of Taoism. He was famous in various interpretations in history. In addition, his nephew yuan Tiangang was better than the blue. Yuan Tiangang and his apprentice Li Chunfeng jointly deduced the back pushing picture of the 2000 National Games after the Tang Dynasty.


    Merton knows his own business. In the face of such a legendary figure in history, how can he not be creepy.


    "Mohist Merton pays a visit to Taoist yuan!" Merton took a deep breath and said hard.


    "I didn''t expect that the old Taoist had left Chang''an City for only ten years, and the Mohist school, which had been silent for thousands of years, had such a smart and beautiful person." Yuan Shoucheng looked at Merton and said with amazement and praise.


    "Taoist yuan, don''t spend this boy. This boy is like a catfish. He is very slippery and can climb on the pole!" Li Shimin snorted coldly at Merton.


    "Hahaha, I admire the momentum of these newborn calves! I''ve traveled far in the south of the Yangtze River. I''ve heard that the Mohist School cracked the witch doctor''s harm to people. That''s all for my Taoism!" Yuan Shoucheng said.


    In fact, in addition to witches and gods, there are many wild Taoists who also use this means to deceive people and damage the reputation of the Taoist school. Merton''s trick of becoming a desperate family can be said to be a great help to the Taoist school.


    "Taoist priest, you''re welcome. It''s your Majesty''s brilliant martial arts. The boy doesn''t dare to take credit." Merton hates and quickly refuses.


    "Ha ha, what your majesty said is really good, and the Mohist school is really slippery." Yuan Shoucheng laughed.


    Li Shimin glared at Merton, leaned forward a little and said to Yuan Shoucheng, "I have asked Taoist priest to come today. I have something to ask for advice!"


    "Your Majesty, please speak," Yuan Shoucheng said.


    "Recently, I always woke up in my sleep at night. When I woke up, I was covered with sweat. I don''t know if there is a way to solve it." Li Shimin asked in a low voice.


    Yuan Shoucheng looked at Li Shimin''s face in surprise, pinched his fingers and said, "Your Majesty woke up in a dream, but since the drought, after cutting the clay sculpture of the Dragon King of Jinghe River in the south of the city."


    "Taoist priest is really clever, that''s right!" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    "Your Majesty is the body of a real dragon. Although the Dragon King of Jinghe River is only a clay sculpture, he also collided with the dragon spirit. This is the nightmare," Yuan Shoucheng said.


    "Taoist priest, the method that can be solved!" Li Shimin hurriedly said.


    Although Li Shimin ordered the elimination of superstition, it was not that Li Shimin did not believe in ghosts and gods after confirming that these were deceptive tricks. On the contrary, Li Shimin also believes in these things very much. When Li Shimin was young, a scholar who can see his face saw Li Shimin. The scholar said: "the posture of dragons and phoenixes, the watch of the sky and the sun, will be able to help the world and the people when he is 20." Li Yuan adopted the meaning of "helping the world and the people" and named his son "Shimin".


    Sure enough, when Li Shimin was about 20 years old, he set up a military expedition to calm the four sides and live up to the four words of helping the world and the people.


    Yuan Shoucheng stroked his beard and said with confidence: "most of your Majesty''s men are iron and blood generals. They are very angry. As long as you choose two people to guard outside your Majesty''s bedroom, you will ensure your Majesty''s peace of mind!"


    "My father is willing to guard for his majesty!" Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin said in unison. Although Wei Chi Baolin didn''t talk much on weekdays, he didn''t lose his chain at the critical moment.


    Chumo slows down and opens his mouth regretfully


    Merton was shocked. Unexpectedly, he witnessed the birth of the door god again.


    "Hmm? General Qin and general Yuchi are really suitable candidates, but they are not suitable to stay in the back palace for a long time. The Taoist priest heard that the new painting skills of the Mohist school can confuse the true with the false. If the Mohist son can draw the portraits of the two people and hang them outside the door after the Taoist priest''s practice, he will make the little people can no longer disturb his majesty!" Yuan Shoucheng looked at Merton.


    "Share your worries for your majesty!" Merton hurriedly said.


    The number one scholar''s building is Merton''s stronghold. There are all kinds of painting tools, and Merton immediately asked Master Yu to take out his brush and drawing board and draw two huge portraits of the door god with reference to Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde on the spot.


    Merton carefully painted his painting. For a moment, his eyes were like copper bells, holding a big knife and a fierce general who chose people to bite jumped onto the paper.


    To tell the truth, these two door gods are only similar to Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde, but they are the portraits that best meet yuan Shoucheng''s requirements.


    "The MOH family deserves its reputation!"


    Yuan Shoucheng was shocked and looked like an ink family with exquisite skills. Everyone thought that Yuan Shoucheng was praising Merton''s painting skills, but yuan Shoucheng thought that Merton''s ability to smell strings and know meaning was so valuable. Unfortunately, if it were not for the Mohists, they would inherit their own mantle.


    "Where, where, painting is a path, a Taoist priest''s immortal method!" Merton said meaningfully.


    Watching Li Shimin and Yuan Shoucheng leave, Merton and the four were relieved. As for the women''s medical school, they had long forgotten.


    "Taoist yuan is really a figure of immortals. He can count that I will come here later. I didn''t get wronged this time. I knew I wouldn''t come here." Qin Huaiyu sucked a pot of tea and gasped.


    "Yes, yes," Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nodded.


    "You think it was really calculated by pinching your fingers," Merton asked.


    "Isn''t it? Our brothers ran here as soon as they called out. No one knew I was coming here." Qin Huaiyu wondered.


    "Mohist school has done similar research on people''s psychology and behavior. By judging a person, we can predict the other party''s next action. Think about it, today''s women''s medical school has closed several roads at once, and only the champion building is the best around here. It is the closest to the national Academy of Sciences and our industry. Do you think we will come here to see women doctors The college came to see the excitement. "


    "That means it''s inevitable that we come here." Chumo suddenly said.


    "Then I''ll wait for my father to guard your majesty?" Qin Huaiyu asked hurriedly.


    "People have nightmares because they don''t have a sense of security. If they know that the most powerful and trusted people are guarding themselves, they will naturally have a sense of security and won''t have nightmares anymore." Merton whispered.


    Merton can even guess that Li Shimin''s nightmare is definitely not after cutting off the Dragon King clay sculpture. I''m afraid Li Shimin didn''t sleep well after the Xuanwu Gate.


    Yuan Shoucheng is definitely a master of psychology. Of course, he knows the root cause of Li Shimin. He deliberately follows Li Shimin''s meaning, takes out the Dragon King of Jinghe River as a shield, and proposes to let two generals guard Li Shimin.


    Of course, he will not say these words anyway. Even Qin Huaiyu and his three brothers are his best brothers and worthy of trust, but he can expose yuan Shoucheng and offend Taoism, but he can''t lift Li Shimin''s fig leaf.


    "I see! There is such magical knowledge in the world." Qin Huaiyu exclaimed.


    "Doesn''t that mean yuan Shoucheng doesn''t have anything?" Chumo glanced away. It''s because he believed in Yuan Shoucheng before. He didn''t think it was such a thing.


    "Nothing?" Merton looked at Chumo in surprise and said, "a person can guess you and know what you''re going to do next. What do you say?"


    The three shivered at the same time.


    Merton said, "what happened today is rotten in my heart. No one can say it."


    The three nodded together. Later, Yuan Shoucheng continued to be his living immortal. They knew what was going on in their hearts.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at Merton complicatedly. It was really wonderful to follow Merton, but they could better understand some cruel truth.


    They really don''t know whether they know the mystery of Taoism is a good thing or a bad thing.


    Looking at the women''s medical school not far from the window, they were still in high spirits, but now they have no interest at all. They just feel that their original ideas and impulses are too childish compared with what happened today.

 Chapter 144

    Merton did not know that one of the women who applied for the female doctor was Princess Changle. However, Princess Changle did not declare her identity, but took part in the examination of the women''s Medical College under her pseudonym.


    Li Shimin''s appearance in the No. 1 scholar''s building is not accidental, but specially came to send Princess Changle to catch Merton, the culprit. It''s just a free hand.


    Under the temptation of heavy profits in Mojia village, Sun Simiao''s five female disciples finally moved and persuaded their families to go out of the mountain and be responsible for teaching women''s medicine. They solved the problem of teachers in women''s Medical College and were responsible for enrollment.


    "Big girl! Er Hua, Xiao Xia!..."


    Ziyi was very excited. At the door of the women''s Medical College, she saw a group of young girls waving their hands.


    "Purple clothes..."


    Suddenly, a large group of girls rushed to Ziyi.


    "Don''t call others big girl. It''s too rustic. They call her Zihan now." the tall big girl complained.


    "They are now called Xinyi. Xiaoxia is called Chenxi." Er Hua also said with his mouth.


    Xiaoxia, no, dawn nodded again and again.


    "OK, big girl, Er Hua, Xiao Xia!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    These are the women in the waiting girls in Mojia village, a backhand left by Merton for the women''s Medical College.


    Although Ink magazine spared no effort to publicize the enrollment of women''s Medical College, Merton and Sun Simiao had no confidence in the enrollment of women''s Medical College, so Merton took the opportunity to organize the women in the waiting girl in Mojia village. If there is no one for the enrollment of women''s Medical College, it is estimated that the number of women in Mojia village alone is almost the same, which can be regarded as indirectly completing the task.


    But Merton still underestimated the open atmosphere of Datang. The number of women who came to the women''s medical college yesterday was beyond everyone''s expectation. Although some of them just came to see and wait, the number of applicants has far exceeded the previous optimistic estimate.


    The originally prepared examination room was directly insufficient. There was no way. Sun Simiao immediately decided to take the examination in two batches. The first batch first took the examination of female doctors and the second batch took the examination of female nursing. The work originally planned to be completed in the morning was ended in the afternoon.


    This group of girls from Mojia village, who have officially applied for female nursing, have not finished the exam until now.


    "How did you do in the exam?" Ziyi asked with concern. She was very bored in Chang''an alone. If so many little sisters stayed in Chang''an, she wouldn''t be so bored in the future.


    "It''s OK. Our test is simple. It''s just female nursing. We know a lot of words. It''s not difficult for us at all." said the big girl with a confident face.


    "That''s right. It''s not as difficult as the usual teacher''s question?" Erhua Xiaoxia said one by one.


    In view of the scarcity of women''s literacy, the content of women''s nursing assessment in women''s medical college is very simple, so as long as a certain literacy rate is OK. Anyway, in this era, the foundation of women''s medicine is almost zero, and it is similar to starting training again.


    After several months of compulsory education in Mojia village, almost all unmarried men and women in Mojia village have a certain literacy foundation. Now Mojia village has the highest literacy rate in the Tang Dynasty except the imperial palace.


    As for female doctors, they only need to have a certain knowledge of medicinal materials and higher cultural knowledge, so the level of girls in Mojia village can not reach.


    "By the way, do you still have the comics you gave us? It''s so good-looking. You''re so powerful." a group of girls worshipped around the purple clothes.


    "The young master taught me at that time." Ziyi said proudly, "the next volume hasn''t been finished yet. It''s all in the ink house. Let me show you?"


    Suddenly, a large group of girls from Mojia village rushed to Mofu.


    Merton recruited these girls from the Mohist village. The original location was the Mohist house with many vacant houses. But Merton didn''t expect so many people willing to participate in female nursing enrollment.


    Big girl, these girls don''t care what female nursing is. As long as they hear that they come to Chang''an and may stay in Chang''an, all the problems are not problems. All the school-age women in the whole Mojia village go out, not one! The young master won''t hurt them anyway.


    The Mo mansion was occupied by the girls of the Mojia village. Merton, who lived on the street, didn''t want to live in the dormitory of C house, so he returned to the Zhuangyuan building and was ready to make do with it for another night.


    As night fell and the cold hit, Merton was still thin, standing at the top of the champion building, and suddenly a burst of loneliness hit him.


    When I met yuan Shoucheng today, he was almost hairy and extremely defensive. However, he was disappointed to confirm that Yuan Shoucheng was only proficient in psychology.


    He came to this place of the Tang Dynasty for no reason, but it made him bear the heavy responsibility of the lost Mohist school. All along, he tried his best to change the world with what he learned, but he only fought alone.


    "The young man doesn''t know the taste of sorrow, so he has to say sorrow for new words." Merton laughed at himself. He didn''t expect that he almost lost his mind when he met yuan Shoucheng today.


    As far as I can see, the Mexican hospital is brightly lit. The doctors on duty at night must be busy treating patients, and the women''s medical college is also brightly lit. It is said that the list of women doctors will be published tomorrow. I''m afraid the women''s medical college is correcting the examination papers and determining the list of women doctors all night.


    In the Imperial Palace, according to Qin Huaiyu, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde went into battle in person and took charge of the Imperial City in person. Li Shimin must have slept soundly tonight with the double protection of the door god and the fierce general.


    Everyone has a guardian, and his guardian of Merton is those young girls in the Mojia village who occupy the magpie''s nest and can''t sleep excitedly, as well as five thousand old and young people in the Mojia village fifty miles away.


    There are too many incomprehensible things in the world. Even if there are many phenomena that cannot be explained by science in future generations. Even if today''s crossing is just a dream, he Merton should protect these concerns in his dream.


    When he woke up, it was already daybreak. Looking at the bustling streets and the endless flow of people, Merton was very sure that this was a real world, every one was alive, and he was also a real member.


    Sitting in the hall of the champion building, he bited the steamed stuffed bun sent by the fish master. Three or two people were one. The sense of fullness filled his belly made him say that his worries disappeared last night.


    "Young master! No!" Ziyi''s anxious voice came from outside the champion building.


    Sure enough, it''s still the world, and the trouble has never been cut off.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton asked calmly, looking at Purple panting running over.


    "Zihan Xinyi, dawn, they all... Passed the exam!" Ziyi said out of breath.


    "Zihan? Xinyi? Dawn?" Merton frowned. These names are so familiar! Merton


    "It''s big girl Erhua Xiaoxia and them." Ziyi jumped to her feet


    "That''s a good thing!" Merton realized that it was still the original formula and the familiar taste.


    "But there are too many people. Many people say that we cheat in Mojia village!" in the intermittent description of purple clothes, Merton finally knows the context.


    There were less than 200 female nurses enrolled in the whole women''s Medical College, and the girls in Mojia village suddenly accounted for 93.


    When the results of the list came out, everyone suddenly became boiling and thought that the women''s Medical College and Mojia village were jointly operated in a dark box. Otherwise, how could such a terrible number of people be admitted.


    "I''ll go!"


    Merton was not calm at once. He put down half of the steamed stuffed bun he had bitten and ran out.


    Women''s medical school is the key to keep Sun Simiao. If it fails, you''ll wait for the board!

 Chapter 145

    When Merton arrived at the women''s Medical College, he found that the problem was much more serious than that described in purple. Not only did the female nursing enrollment account for more than half of the enrollment in Mojia village, but even the female doctor Mojia village accounted for as much as one tenth.


    "Mojia village is too brazen!"


    "Yes, it''s clearly a women''s medical college sponsored by doctor sun, and Mojia village secretly stuffed people into it!"


    "This is a blatant cheating!"


    "No wonder the Mexican family put forward such high conditions, which were originally prepared for their own people!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Outside the women''s medical school, there was a lot of noise and people talked about it, especially the families who failed to make the list attributed the reason to Mojia village.


    "Hua Lao, sun Lao!"


    In Mo hospital, Merton panted and ran to the second old man.


    "What''s the matter with Merton? How can so many people in Mojia village come to take the women''s medical examination!" Sun Simiao asked solemnly.


    Merton also smiled bitterly and whispered to Sun Simiao to explain the reason.


    Sun Simiao was also speechless for a while. He didn''t expect that Merton still had a dark hand, and even he didn''t expect that so many women would be willing to sign up for women''s medical school.


    "You mean these girls in Mojia village were admitted by their own abilities." Sun Simiao asked.


    "Mr. Sun, if others don''t know, you can''t know. You write the test questions yourself, and your disciples correct the test papers yourself. When recruiting, the scores are admitted from high to low. How can there be the possibility of cheating!" Merton explained with a bitter smile.


    Sun Simiao thought about all the rules for the enrollment of women''s medical college this time. There was no possibility of cheating.


    Now everything is surprisingly smooth. The only problem is that there are too many people admitted to Mojia village. Sun Simiao is also in a dilemma. In order to support the women''s medical school, the school-age girls of the whole village pull over to support the scene. They can''t say anything if they want to sacrifice Mojia village.


    "Master, there is a lot of noise outside the women''s medical school now! If this continues, I''m afraid there will be trouble before the women''s medical school opens." a very ordinary woman in her thirties hurried over.


    This woman is Sun Simiao''s eldest disciple red medicine, that is, the only one who insisted on going out for a few months. Finally, she couldn''t resist the pressure of her mother-in-law''s family.


    Merton asked her to come out of the mountain again, but it took a lot of energy. It cost 500 yuan just to settle down, plus a house in Chang''an City, which moved the mother-in-law''s family of red medicine.


    "Merton, now you have to calm down this matter no matter what method you use. Female doctors are the key to the prosperity of doctors, and there can be no loss," Hua Yuan said solemnly.


    Everyone knows that female doctors play a great role. Before, due to the lack of conditions and environment, female doctors eventually withered. Now, it''s not easy to create a momentum. With the support of your majesty and such good conditions as Mohist hospital, we can''t miss this opportunity anyway. If we can''t, we have to sacrifice Mohist village.


    Merton pondered, thought about the crisis public relations of later generations, and said: "first, post the examination papers of Mojia village and the failed women, and let them watch, so as to prove the innocence of Mojia village."


    Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan nodded and made it public, which can really dispel people''s doubts.


    "In addition, another reason why this phenomenon occurs is that we estimate that the number of applicants is insufficient, so the number of applicants is also small. Now it''s not easy to have so many students. Can we make up some?" Huayuan suggested.


    Sun Simiao''s eyes brightened, which is a good idea. After all, it''s not enough to double the current urgent need for female doctors.


    "That won''t work!" Merton hurriedly stopped.


    "Why not?" Hua Yuan wondered.


    "The doctor is the most rigorous industry. If the enrollment is expanded on a large scale, the good and bad will be mixed. I''m afraid the signboard erected by the women''s Medical College will be destroyed. If we always adhere to the spirit of excellence and take the best from the best, even if it is a little difficult, we will be able to run the women''s Medical College in the end." Merton rejected.


    Sun Simiao also nodded heavily. His question was simple enough, but these women still couldn''t answer it, which showed that they really had a poor foundation. Even if they were forced to cultivate, I''m afraid they would get twice the result with half the effort.


    "However, for some women who are willing to learn female medicine, we can first cultivate their medical skills. If they can really meet the standard, they can be enrolled in female medical school!" Merton thought about the preparatory mode of future generations and put forward a compromise mode.


    After all, in this era, women''s cultural skills are too poor. It''s better to cultivate them first. If conditions were not allowed, Merton would even want to use the three plus two mode of the later generation, culture and professional courses at the same time to estimate the effect better, but that is too time-consuming and laborious.


    "This is a feasible way!" Sun Simiao''s eyes brightened, which can not only maintain the quality of women''s Medical College, but also cultivate reserve talents for women''s Medical College, but also solve the current dilemma.


    Merton thought about it and said, "in addition, before the women''s medical school had no examination, the boy thought there would be few people, so he was going to make a contribution to the women''s medical school with the sisters of the Mojia village. He had expected some criticism, so he asked Mo San to make an ink journal explanation in advance. Now it seems that he can''t wait, so he can only be issued as a special journal."


    After hearing Merton''s backhand, Sun Simiao looked at Merton in surprise, sighed and said, "I finally know how the Mojia village has developed to such a point in a short time. With Merton''s caution, I believe the women''s medical school will succeed."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the gradual posting of the examination papers, the upsurge outside the women''s medical college gradually subsided. The comparison examination papers were placed there. This time, the women''s medical college adopted the 100 point system, and it was clear at a glance who scored how much.


    "Mom, I''m not wronged this time. I''m really not as good as the people in Mojia village!" a girl in light blue looked at her published score and said to the middle-aged woman with tears in her eyes.


    In fact, her score was almost to the admission line, and her mother was very weak and ill. She originally thought that after she was admitted to women''s medical school, her mother could get better treatment from Mo hospital.


    According to Ink magazine, female medical students, whether female doctors or female assistants, can give their mothers half price preferential treatment, which is even more preferential than Guozi supervisor students. The girl in blue was also a literate, but after her mother was ill, she had left her books for too long.


    "It''s all right, son. It''s not too late for the next exam!" the middle-aged mother comforted.


    "But, mother, your condition?" the girl in blue said anxiously.


    At this time, there was a sensation at the door of the women''s Medical College, and the mother and daughter looked at it immediately.


    "Preparatory?"


    The mother and daughter looked at the newly posted notice with wet ink, and the name of the light blue woman was impressively on the notice list, and immediately wept with joy.


    With the posting of examination papers and the supplementary recording of preparatory courses, the storm of enrollment in women''s Medical College finally subsided, and people wondered more why women in Mojia village had such dazzling results.

 Chapter 146

    "My daughter is really amazing. She can get the female champion!"


    In the hall of attention, Li Shimin praised with a smile on his face. He couldn''t see the expression of pride for his daughter because of the black face that Merton tricked his daughter to study medicine.


    "That''s it! Don''t you see whose daughter was then?" said Princess Changle proudly.


    In this women''s medical examination, after a period of mending, Princess Changle finally beat everyone with both medical and cultural skills and was admitted first by the women''s Medical College. After the admission list came down today, Princess Changle came to report the good news to Queen changsun at the first time.


    "Who worry about personal gains and losses yesterday, and fear not to test it?" laughed the empress of the long sun.


    "Empress mother?" Princess Changle threw herself into the arms of empress changsun.


    "There are a lot of people in the women''s medical school this time. There are enough women studying medicine. You are a golden body. There is no need to suffer any more!" the eldest Sun Queen painfully advised.


    "Empress mother, as the eldest princess, the child should set an example for the daughters of the world. Only in this way can the mothers of the world be cured," said Princess Changle firmly.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun looked at each other and knew that they could not change their daughter''s mind, so they had to change the topic reluctantly.


    "Come on, tell my father how the women''s medical school took the exam. My father heard that this time there was a big storm. Many people said there was cheating!" Li Shimin said.


    "Where can I cheat?" Princess Changle said with her lips. "There are only 20 people in a classroom. They all sit with their backs to the blackboard, only let them take pen and ink, and don''t take anything. Moreover, there are two doctors supervising the examination, one before and one after..."


    Merton almost moved all the anti cheating tricks of future generations. Like a thief, Princess Changle complained deeply and kept complaining.


    But Li Shimin listened with interest and nodded from time to time to raise his own questions.


    "Father and mother, school will begin tomorrow. I''ll go back and prepare!" Princess Changle said to empress changsun for a while.


    "Well, let''s go! When it''s the holiday of each month, my father will send someone to pick you up!" said Li Shimin.


    "Emperor, is there really anything wrong with the women''s medical examination?" looking at the departure of Princess Changle, empress changsun asked anxiously. She found that Li Shimin was hot about the details of the women''s medical examination.


    "Guanyin maid! It''s not wrong, but too right!" Li Shimin said with a bitter smile.


    "So no examinee cheated in the women''s medical examination?" empress Chang Sun said happily.


    Li Shimin handed empress Chang sun an ink magazine and said, "not only are there no candidates cheating, but even the doctors who mark the papers are not possible to cheat!"


    Empress Chang sun looked at the front page of this special issue and wondered, "paste name system!"


    "This is the way Merton worked out for the female medical examination. Once the papers are collected, the names and native places of all the papers are pasted with paper and can''t be opened until the papers are changed!" sighed Li Shimin.


    Not only that, each doctor only reviews one question, and each question is corrected by two doctors. If the final score difference is too large, it will also be submitted to doctor sun for review. If time didn''t allow, Merton even wanted to get the transcripts of later generations.


    "Ah!" the eldest Sun Queen grew up and said in surprise, "isn''t that more strict than the imperial examination!"


    Empress changsun suddenly realized why Li Shimin asked so much about the details of Changle''s examination. It was obviously a blow. Compared with this women''s medical examination, Li Shimin felt that the process of the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty was full of loopholes. So far, at least ten ministers have written to request the Imperial examination to implement the name paste system.


    "The boy has such a good method. He doesn''t know how to present it early!" Li Shimin said with a black face.


    "I knew I would bully Merton. If you want to do this again, I don''t want to!" the eldest grandson queen said falsely.


    Merton tried his best to set up the women''s medical school this time. The original reason was for the condition of empress Chang sun, but now it is not a problem for one person, but the gospel of women all over the world.


    Whether it is to retain Sun Simiao or the establishment of women''s Medical College, it will be of great help to women in the Tang Dynasty. As a model of women in the world, empress Chang sun certainly has a good heart for Merton.


    "Well, it''s rare for Guanyin maid to plead with a little catfish! I''ll let this boy confuse my baby daughter." Li Shimin said with hatred.


    Empress Chang sun immediately covered her mouth and smiled. She knew that her husband was joking. Although Li Shimin was usually cruel to Merton, when they were together, Li Shimin mentioned Merton more often than anyone else.


    He even mentioned more than once his wise decision to take the boy of Mojia as the test object of catfish effect and leave him in Chang''an city. Merton has given him enough surprises for nearly half a year! The eldest grandson queen who knew her husband well didn''t understand his mind.


    "Your Majesty, since the paste name system is conducive to the country of the Tang Dynasty, your Majesty must not have family views and abandon it. It will be of great help to your Majesty in selecting talents!" empress Chang sun advised.


    "Don''t worry, Guanyin maid. I naturally understand this! But it''s not urgent. I''m going to try out the paste name system in the Imperial College first, see the advantages and disadvantages, and then decide whether to promote it." Li Shimin said.


    "Well, since there is no cheating in the female medical examination, why can so many women in Mojia village be admitted?" empress changsun remembered the reason for this twists and turns. Asked curiously.


    "Guanyin maidservant, you can see by looking at the reverse side of the ink magazine!" Li Shimin said coldly.


    "The opposite!" empress Chang sun turned over the ink magazine suspiciously and suddenly saw a big title - don''t let your child become illiterate.


    "Illiterate!"


    Empress Chang sun looked surprised, but she had never heard of the word.


    Li Shimin said, "the Mohists compare illiterate people to blind people, which is called illiterate for short!"


    "How could Merton be so mean!" the eldest grandson frowned.


    "Look who signed it?" Li Shimin said helplessly.


    "Li duo! Strange Confucian Li duo!" the eldest grandson queen said in surprise.


    Li Shimin nodded.


    "That''s no wonder!" the eldest grandson nodded. Strange scholar Li duo was famous in Chang''an City and behaved very perversely. He has disappeared in Chang''an city these years. Unexpectedly, he lived in seclusion in Mojia village.


    "Li duo had a hard time dealing with Kong Yingda before. He had always opposed the educational model of the Imperial College and repeatedly wrote to ask for changes in education. But at that time, the Tang Dynasty was full of waste, and I ignored his ideas. But I didn''t expect him to hit it off with the Mojia village." Li Shimin said.


    "Blind people can''t see the way, illiterate people can''t read. Blind people are born like this, which is particularly pitiful. Illiteracy is caused by the day after tomorrow, which is sad and lamentable....................."


    Looking at the ink magazine, empress changsun only felt that a person unwilling to accept her fate was shouting hard, and the words were as sharp as a knife.

 Chapter 147

    "Illiterate?"


    Empress Chang sun pondered. Seeing the cry from her heart, she immediately felt that although the word was too ironic, it was really penetrating.


    "Ninety nine percent of the farmers in the countryside are illiterate, and eighty percent of the people in Chang''an city are illiterate." Li Shimin sighed when he saw the statistics in the ink magazine. "Not only that, I''m afraid there are many palace women eunuchs illiterate in the imperial palace!"


    "So there is no illiteracy in Mojia village?" asked the empress changsun.


    "It can''t be said that there is no illiteracy in Mojia village, but there is no illiteracy in the new generation!" Li Shimin pointed to the last paragraph of Mojia magazine.


    "Compulsory education in Mojia village!" empress Chang Sun said suspiciously, staring at Mojia magazine.


    Li Shimin sighed, "the Mohist village is so big. All teenagers under the age of 15, both men and women, have to go to school for education."


    Usually the children of other people help their families as soon as they are sensible. Unless they are rich families, they are willing to send their children to school.


    "Both men and women have to go to school? Isn''t that a mess?" the eldest Sun Queen frowned.


    "People in the same village know each other. Men and women under the age of 10 are in the same class, while those over the age of 10 will go separately!" Li Shimin had already seen it and explained to the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang sun nodded. There is really no need for men and women under the age of 10.


    "I''m afraid that''s why Merton came up with the idea of women''s medical school!" the eldest sun queen suddenly said. She thought that women''s medical school had made a history, but she didn''t expect that there was a women''s school in Mojia village.


    "This is also the reason why there are so many women''s medical schools in Mojia village this time." Li Shimin sighed. Nearly a hundred people have been admitted to the women''s medical school in Mojia village alone, and this is only women of school age. It can be seen that the compulsory education in Mojia village is not shouting slogans verbally, but really implemented.


    "However, my concubine also heard that Mojia village implements free medical treatment in the whole village, and now it has compulsory education in the whole village. How much money will it cost?" sighed the eldest Sun Queen.


    "Guanyin maidservant, forget the most important idea of Mohism!" Li Shimin bought a pass and said.


    "Universal love is better than attacking the virtuous!" the eldest Sun Queen blurted out.


    "Universal love and virtuosity! Now I finally know why Mohism declined in those years. None of these ideas can be implemented without money!" sighed Li Shimin.


    Not to mention the wedding room in Mojia village before, it is free medical treatment and compulsory education in the whole village. I''m afraid it costs a lot of money. Where can ordinary people afford it!


    Just say Shang Xian! Just hire female doctors with a monthly salary. If ordinary people can afford it.


    "Your Majesty, don''t forget that Merton is a famous little god of wealth. Everything he makes is very valuable!" the eldest Sun Queen reminded.


    "Yes! Maybe the Mohists really found a new way in Merton." Li Shimin sighed.


    As an emperor, Li Shimin thinks more. He can even imagine that after the emergence of block printing, the cost of reading and literacy has been greatly reduced, and the time for large-scale education is ripe. At the same time, a large number of unsuccessful literati have found a way to make a living.


    The rise of education can provide more talents for the Tang Dynasty to participate in the imperial examination. Coupled with the implementation of the paste name system, I''m afraid more and more common people and even ordinary people''s sons will go to the court and break the monopoly of aristocratic families on official positions.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and buried these in his heart. Everything is still immature.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "People who study are divided into three classes. The lower classes only need to be able to read and calculate to meet their daily needs; the middle school students learn skills and have no worries about food and clothing all their life, such as those who learn medicine, calculate accounts and be teachers; the best ones learn and become officials, and thousands of people who study in the Tang Dynasty, how can everyone be an official."


    Guozijian.


    Kong Yingda looked at Li duo''s reading syllogism in Ink magazine! This is simply the biggest impact on the Confucian culture and martial arts and the imperial family.


    To be fair, everyone knows how many people study in the world, and few can be officials. Therefore, although Confucius advocated education without discrimination, Confucianism advocated elite education in all dynasties.


    "Li laoguai really dares to say anything!" Liu Yinian snapped at the ink magazine in his hand. Li duo''s words were like lifting the lid.


    When Li duo was in Chang''an City, he often confronted the Imperial College. In recent years, he was silent. He thought he was already discouraged. Unexpectedly, he made a comeback with his back against the Mojia village.


    "An old Li monster is not worried and can''t turn over any big waves. Now let''s discuss this compulsory education of Mohism!" Kong Yingda shook his head.


    "Compulsory education!"


    Suddenly, all the doctors of the Imperial College became silent. Anyone can see that once compulsory education is implemented, it is a great event that will last forever, but it was proposed and implemented by the Mohist school!


    "In my opinion, compulsory education doesn''t work!" Liu Yinian said gritting his teeth.


    "Talk about it!" Kong Yingda indicated.


    "Sacrificing wine, not to mention the source of students, is a mixture of good and bad. This money and food alone will cost a lot. Mojia village is just a village. How many villages in the whole Tang Dynasty can afford so much money and food." Liu Yinian sniffed.


    "Universal love is not offensive! The Mohists like to mention some false big empty slogans, which can''t be implemented at all!" Dr. Guozi also agreed.


    In their view, these slogans of Mohism seem to be perfect, but in the end they are just empty.


    Others also agree. At present, compulsory education has no promotion value at all. It is just a flash in the pan. Maybe the decline of Mojia village will disappear


    Shen Hongcai looked at a group of empty eyed Guozijian doctors, shook his head and said, "before, the universal love of Mojia village could not be implemented at all. Now he has sold the first step and implemented a village. In mathematics, zero to one is how difficult, and one to two is much easier."


    However, he is now bent on Mathematics and has been excluded by the public before. How can he kindly remind them.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    This special issue not only solved the trust crisis between women''s Hospital and Mojia village, but also aroused heated discussion among the people of Chang''an city.


    "Love and benefit each other!"


    People''s hot topic is always inseparable from the core of Mohism. Mohist Thought, which has disappeared for thousands of years, is once again presented to the people of the Tang Dynasty. No one thought it was such a beautiful scene.


    "Everyone has a rich life, the newly married people send new houses, free medical care for all villagers, and compulsory education for the whole village!" this is an unimaginable paradise on earth for some people in the Tang Dynasty who are still struggling to eat enough, and this paradise on earth is beside him - Mojia Village.


    The creator of all this was Merton, the son of the Mohist family. For a while, Merton''s reputation rose again, almost everyone knew.

 Chapter 148

    "Hahaha, brother Hua! You haven''t seen those sour Confucians. I''m really happy today!"


    Among the top fish scholars, Master Li said in high spirits that because of the recruitment storm, he specially came from Mojia village to help. Then, the wind of Ink magazine visited the great scholars who didn''t deal with him in those years, and vomited out all the evil spirit of withdrawing from Chang''an.


    "Congratulations, brother Li! You are famous in Chang''an! The pioneering work of compulsory education must be immortal!" old Hua said happily.


    In those days, like Master Li, he lived in seclusion and was a difficult brother in Mojia village. They had the strongest relationship. Today, at the fish champion, he specially brought him to meet the fish master and wash the dust for old Hua.


    "Hahaha, that''s nature!" Master Li laughed happily.


    At that time, he was discouraged and went to Mojia village to be a teacher. How could he expect to have today''s scenery? What about his opponent who became a famous Confucian in Chang''an? Who can remember them a hundred years later? They are not loess, and his Li Duo is destined to leave a heavy mark in history books.


    "Come on, Congratulations, Lao Li! Come and have a drink!" the fish master raised his glass and advised.


    The three immediately drank up, but Hua always replaced wine with tea. As a doctor, he was very self-control and didn''t drink at all.


    "Old fish, you can''t use this wine!" Master Li shook his head and looked like a disgust.


    "Nonsense, this is the best wine in Chang''an city. My old fish stayed for a long time. I''ll treat you when you come." the fish master angrily said.


    Mr. Li likes to drink. It''s famous in Mojia village. Except in the most difficult time in Mojia village, Mr. Li''s meal is full of wine.


    Since the Mojia village became rich, Master Li was like a duck to water. Some students who had taught also bought wine to honor him, and good wine continued.


    "Old fish, calm down! Calm down!" Master Li said hurriedly when he saw that master fish was angry. "I''m not saying that your wine is bad. This is the most famous Sanle pulp in Chang''an city. How can I not taste it!"


    "Hum! Lao Li, if you can''t say one, two or three, let alone sanlejiang, you can''t drink the turbid wine of Zhangjiazhuang!" Master Yu pretended to be angry.


    Zhangjiazhuang''s turbid wine is famous in Chang''an city. It''s not how good it is, but the price is extremely cheap. It''s the first choice for ordinary people. When Mojia village was poor, Master Li didn''t drink less turbid wine.


    "As far as I''m concerned, a drop of it shouldn''t be allowed for Lao Li to drink. Drinking will hurt his health and delay things." old Hua persuaded him. He usually advised Master Li many times, but master Li always went in one ear and out the other. He didn''t take it seriously.


    "Don''t listen to the medicine jar. He doesn''t know the joy in wine." Master Li mysteriously took a wine gourd from under his waist, shook it and said, "if you drink my wine, I''m afraid you''ll never say your wine again!"


    Mr. Hua and Master Yu immediately showed a curious look. He knew that although Mr. Li was usually careless, when it comes to drinking, he has never lost to anyone. It must be the best wine that can make him praise so much.


    "Touch!"


    When the stopper of wine gourd was opened, a strong smell of wine filled the whole private room!


    "Good wine!" Master Yu said movingly. He is also a regular guest in the wine. He is intoxicated just by smelling such a strong aroma of wine.


    "Come on, have a good taste!" Master Li smiled proudly and poured a cup for the fish master.


    The fish master couldn''t wait. He drank it all at once. Suddenly, a spicy smell poured down his throat and his face turned red. After a long time, the fish master calmed down such an exciting feeling. He only felt that he was warm after he reached his belly. This cup had a slight smoked meaning.


    "How? I didn''t lie to you!" Master Li shook the wine gourd and said proudly.


    "Where did you get such good wine? Do you have any more? I want as many old fish as I have. No, tell me where you bought it, and I''ll order it now!" the fish Master said excitedly.


    From dishes to decoration to services, the fish champion is the top restaurant in Chang''an city. The only defeat is that he doesn''t have his own famous wine. If the fish champion can have such good wine, it will be even more powerful.


    "Then you have to ask the medicine jar. My wine comes from him." Master Li raised his glass and drank it at once, pointing to Hua Laodao.


    "I! I say you''re a strange master. Don''t accuse a good man! Brother Yu knows that I''ve always been sober." old Hua waved his hand again and again.


    Not only Hua Lao, but also master Yu looked at Master Li with disbelief.


    "Well, you medicine jar. You still hide it. This time I came to Chang''an City, but I followed the convoy that brought you wine. It''s very tight. Unfortunately, when I met my wine nose, I knew it was good wine." Master Li said proudly.


    "Ah! That''s alcohol, that''s medicine, it''s used for medical treatment!" old Hua suddenly said, remembering the disinfection alcohol mentioned by Merton before, which is a good medicine specially used to treat wounds.


    "Medicine, that''s even better! I just need this good medicine to help!" Master Li looked like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.


    "What do you know? Merton said that if you drink too much, your life will be in danger!" old Hua said anxiously.


    "Ah! No, I drank a gourd yesterday!" Master Li was shocked!


    "I know it''s bad to be greedy for a cup! Come on! Give Lao Li a good look!" Master Yu was surprised and asked Lao Hua to help master Li feel his pulse.


    "Eh!" old Hua shook his head and said, "no!"


    "How? Lao Li won''t be hopeless!" the fish Master said with a sad face.


    "Bah, don''t say anything unlucky!" Master Li angrily said.


    "No! Merton clearly said that if he drank too much, he could easily be poisoned. How could he be all right?" old Hua wondered.


    "Merton!" the three said in unison.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton looked at the three old men staring at him, and his heart was also a burst of hair. As soon as he and Qin Huaiyu came to the champion building, they were caught here by Master Li.


    "Morton didn''t go to the house to uncover the tiles for three days. It''s time to repair it!" Qin Huaiyu fanned the flames and gloated.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nod in agreement.


    "Go, go up!" Merton waved and drove the three bad friends aside.


    "Touch!" Master Li took off the stopper and put it heavily in front of Merton.


    In an instant, a strong smell of wine came again.


    "Alcohol!"


    Merton smelled this familiar smell and looked at Xianghua old in surprise. He specially asked Mojia village to make it for medical disinfection.


    "What else do you say? It''s poisonous to drink. Is it to guard against the master?" Master Li was very angry. He was frightened for a long time just now.


    When Merton heard Mr. Li''s narration, he suddenly couldn''t help laughing.


    In fact, Merton also made an empirical mistake in this matter. The common alcohol in later generations is indeed not drinkable. Merton thought of alcohol at the first time in order to find a means of disinfection for the ink hospital, but he didn''t think that the distillation technology he hastily developed could not purify alcohol at all


    But Merton said that alcohol was poisonous, but it was firmly passed down, but he didn''t expect to meet Mr. Li, who was addicted to alcohol, and it was broken.


    "So the alcohol is not poisonous!" Mr. Li asked after Merton''s explanation, which was his most concerned problem.


    "This alcohol is only fifty or sixty degrees, and it can be drunk?" Merton had to tell the truth.


    Master Li immediately smiled.


    "The disinfection effect you said before!" old Hua frowned and asked. In this era, there are few drugs that can disinfect and prevent infection. If you follow Merton''s disinfection effect, it will be of great help to surgery.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "although it''s not as effective as pure alcohol, it''s still useful!"


    Hua Yuan nodded reassuringly.


    "What''s the cost?" asked the fish master.


    "The raw material is the turbid wine of Zhangjiazhuang village," said Merton. Merton''s original intention is to disinfect. Of course, he chooses the turbid wine of Zhangjiazhuang village with the lowest cost.


    Master Yu was delighted that the turbid wine in Zhangjia village was the cheapest one. Even if it was turned ten times, it was much cheaper than Sanle pulp. It was cheap in cost and so mellow. It was difficult for the fish champion this time, but Merton''s next sentence made him fall from heaven to earth.


    "At present, this wine can only be used as medicine, and it is impossible to sell."


    "Why?" everyone except Hua Yuan looked at Merton in surprise, including Qin Huaiyu, who was choked and flushed.


    The fish champion has the shares of the three of them. The more popular the fish champion''s business is, the more they earn. They don''t understand that Merton clearly has such a treasure to make money, but they don''t use it!


    "Do you know how much food this wine consumes!" Merton said, holding up the little wine gourd left.


    "Isn''t it just a pot of wine? How much food can it cost?" Chumo asked suspiciously.


    "Three kilos of grain and one kilo of wine, even the turbid wine of Zhangjiazhuang needs two and a half kilos of grain, and four kilos of turbid wine of Zhangjiazhuang can refine one kilo of new wine." Merton burst out an amazing figure.


    "Isn''t that ten jin of grain and one jin of wine!" Qin Huaiyu said in surprise.


    There is a shortage of grain in Guanzhong area, and it has always been necessary to transport grain from other places. If Merton does make wine with grain on a large scale, it is good to say that it is used for medical use. However, if it is sold on a large scale, it may not be long before it will be sued by those who stare at the Mojia village. This is also the reason why Merton would rather give up amazing profits than make new wine.


    "What a pity!" Master Yu said regretfully. Such good wine is really rare, but he also knows that the form of Mojia village is hard won. It''s really not a time to create complications.


    Mr. Li didn''t ask for it. Although he was addicted to alcohol, he was not in a hurry. The place where the new wine was produced was in Mojia village. He couldn''t sell his own drink. It''s nothing! Self produced and sold.


    Cheng Fu.


    "Good wine!" Cheng Yaojin blushed and gave a loud drink. Chumo looked at the pot of wine he had managed to get from Merton. It was almost gone.


    Chumo is also unlucky. As soon as he enters the door, he is caught by Cheng Yaojin. Seeing that he is full of wine and is about to get angry, Chumo buys him off with this pot of wine.


    "This is really the wine that Merton made!" Cheng Yaojin said.


    "It''s alcohol! It''s a kind of medicine specially used for disinfection in Mo hospital!" Chumo explains.


    Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand and said, "it''s either wine or medicine. Go and tell the boy Merton that I''m seriously ill and need this medicine urgently!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At the same time, in the Qin mansion.


    Qin Qiong''s face flushed, and she bravely played some martial arts with the strength of wine.


    "Tell Merton that you can''t cure your father without this medicine."


    Merton looked at the three people with a bitter smile. Even the most honest Wei Chi Baolin said with a ashamed face that his father was in urgent need of this medicine.


    "Just these three altars! If you still want to go to old Hua!" Merton gritted his teeth and took out the three altars he had hidden, which can be regarded as filial piety to the three elders.


    The three left happily, leaving Merton there to lament. He hid ten jars of new wine, and sent out three jars at once.


    Before Merton sighed, Pound''s smiling face appeared in front of Merton the next day. Needless to say, someone must show off in front of Li Shimin with new wine.


    The place where Merton carefully stored did not hide pound for a quarter of an hour. Soon, pound loaded seven jars of new wine into the car.


    "I''m sick!" Murton guessed maliciously.

 Chapter 149

    With the publicity of Ink magazine, Master Li spared no effort to hate and disgust his former opponents in Chang''an city. The influence of reading syllogism in Chang''an city gradually increased.


    As the imperial capital, Chang''an city can be said to have the highest education level in the Tang Dynasty. There are countless academies alone. Moreover, a large number of scholars come here every year to study and wait for the triennial imperial examination system.


    Although Datang opened the imperial examination, it is a pity that the number of people admitted is too small. There are only a dozen people in three years, and some don''t even take it. It can be said that thousands of troops have crossed the single wooden bridge.


    But it happened that these scholars failed repeatedly, were also conceited and unwilling to put down their figure at all.


    "There are thousands of people who study, and how many are officials?"


    "People have the best memory at the age of 15 to 25, which is the best time to enter school. Over the age of 30, memory and energy will gradually decline."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Zhou Chen put down his ink journal and was very tangled in his heart. He participated in four imperial examinations in succession. Unfortunately, it fell quickly many times. Chang''an City, a school similar to Zhou Chen, spread quickly and spread to Guanzhong at an amazing speed. Pencils also spread, so as not to be used by more and more poor students.


    As Merton said, it''s not about inheriting etiquette, but to save money and convenience. Everything is imperceptible. No, it should be latent inking.

 Chapter 150

    "Hiring?"


    Merton looked at Master Li in surprise!


    Master Li nodded. This time, in addition to promoting the compulsory education of Mojia village for Merton, he came to Chang''an to discuss the shortage of manpower in Mojia village with Merton at the command of Li Yi and Lao Zhang.


    "There are a lot of employment places in Mojia village now. Lao Zhang''s workshop alone has used half of the people in Mojia village, plus the people sent to Guanzhong by the village guard, transportation team and Chang''an city. All the people have been used. If we don''t recruit people, I''m afraid there will be no people to collect crops during the autumn harvest!" Mr. Li talked to Merton about the current situation of Mojia village.


    Listening to master Li''s ostentatious complaints, Merton couldn''t help sighing that the Mojia village was still poor six months ago. Everyone was trapped in the village, guarding the fields and relying on heaven. Who knows that there was a shortage of manpower six months later.


    "It''s OK to recruit people, but the of Mojia village also needs transformation." Merton thought for a while and said.


    There are too many and miscellaneous businesses in Mojia village. Previously, Merton was to enable all the people of Mojia village to find a livelihood. Most of the selected projects are labor-intensive. Now that the form has changed, the pattern of Mojia village should change, and it can''t be limited to its own village.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Mojia village is recruiting!"


    "The monthly salary is 300 Wen, the monthly salary of literate is 350 Wen, and the monthly salary of literate and accounting is 500 Wen!"


    At each employment site in Chang''an City, one or two Mojia village teenagers shouted loudly with ink magazines.


    The recruitment advertisement of Mojia village has once again triggered people''s attention to education. This time, Mojia village has paid a lot of money. Although the temporary workers used to drive 50 Wen a day when drilling wells in Mojia experimental field, it is related to the harvest of Mojia experimental field. It is urgent and can only spend money to buy time.


    The average worker''s monthly salary of 300 Wen is definitely not low in Chang''an city. The price of 300 Wen a month is definitely the price of conscience, let alone the sky high price of 500 Wen.


    For the first time, people found that knowledge was really linked to wealth. It turns out that the examination of merit and fame is indeed a way to become an official, but it is only the welfare of a small number of people. This recruitment in Mojia village makes people really know what books are and how little they hate when they are used.


    "Five hundred words a month!"


    Outside the south gate, several laborers talked together.


    In Chang''an City, the news stirred up thousands of waves with one stone, and everyone who heard it sucked their tongue. 500 Wen was an absolute high salary in Chang''an city at that time.


    "You''re illiterate, don''t think about it. People want people who can read and calculate accounts. It''s good if you can get 300 Wen a month." a man in sackcloth teased the black faced man next to him. The word illiterate can be said to be the hottest word except Mohist this year. It''s sour, but penetrating.


    Three hundred Wen a month is also more than the current salary.


    "What''s the matter with 300 Wen? That''s a lot. Don''t you just rely on knowing a few words?" the black faced man said with shame and anger. Even 300 Wen in January is better than being precarious at the gate. That''s a real income.


    "That''s 350 Wen a month!" the man in sackcloth said proudly.


    "The old horse has developed this time! You have studied in a private school for two years and can keep accounts!" sighed a hemp man, who was powerful and looked at the thin man not far away with envy,


    The old horse is the thinnest among them. He doesn''t have much strength when he works at ordinary times. He pays the least among them every time. But the brain is flexible. Usually, the old horse helps people keep accounts and never misses it.


    They are all ready to go to Mojia village to recruit workers this time, but the old horse turned over. Usually, the big men in black have the highest salary and the old horse has the least. Now Feng Shui turns around. It turns out that the old horse has the most and he has the least.


    There are many similar events around Chang''an city. Many literate people choose to go to Mojia village, or their original owners raise prices to keep people.


    For a moment, people with knowledge and knowledge became a hot commodity.


    The business of short-term literacy classes like Zhou Chen is very hot. Everyone will calculate this account, so that their children can only spend 100 Wen in the first half of the year and earn it back in the next half a month.


    In the past, there was not necessarily a way out if you spent more money on school. Now there are real interests in front of you, which naturally drives the rise of education.


    Chang''an City, qunxianfang.


    "Here it is?" Merton frowned and looked at a dilapidated alley in front of him. There were only two or three sporadic families in the alley, with sewage all over the intersection and piles of garbage. A bad smell came to my nose.


    Tie''an also frowned and looked around warily. This place is usually the most chaotic.


    "Young master! According to the news given by the tooth woman, there is no doubt here." Mo Er said. Mo Er is the smartest of the brothers. He is the most familiar in Chang''an city. He is usually responsible for helping Merton run errands.


    Under the leadership of Mo Er, the party came to a dilapidated thatched house. The thatched house was very broken and the walls were full of cracks. It was obvious that it had been very old. It competed with the dangerous houses in Mojia village. Such houses are rare in Chang''an city.


    Before entering the door, I heard a beating sound and a woman''s cry.


    "Surnamed Xu, if you know the truth, you will obediently agree to the childe''s request, otherwise your family will never have peace!" a arrogant voice came from the room.


    Merton frowned and said, "tiean, go and have a look!"


    "Yes, young master!" said Tie''an. Tie''an dodged and went directly into the house!


    Suddenly, a few screams came, and three green skins were thrown out of the house by tie an one by one.


    "Who are you? I have nothing to do with Ma San!" the head Qingpi slowly got up, looked at tie an in fear and bluffed. But he saw tiean''s force in front of him. The three of them couldn''t move at all in tiean''s hands, so they were thrown out.


    "Aren''t you afraid of the king''s law if you disturb the people in broad daylight?" iron an Leng snorted.


    "Hum! They owe me money!" Ma San said hard.


    "We don''t owe him money!" a boy about ten rushed out of the door and looked at Ma San and roared.


    "Still don''t go, want to continue to be beaten?" tie an shook his fist and raised his eyebrows.


    Ma San suddenly felt empty in his heart. He looked at the iron tower like iron ANN, and then looked at the two teenagers at the door. He was obviously a noble family, but he couldn''t afford to be provoked by a green skin.


    "Xu, you''re lucky this time!" Ma San looked at the house and said.


    "Thank you for your help. Mr. Xu made me laugh." a middle-aged man of about 40 went out of the house and bowed to Merton. From his eyes, it was obvious that Merton was the leader of the three people.


    "I dare ask, but Mr. Xu Jieshi!" Morton arched his hand.


    "No, that''s right. I dare ask you if it''s important to find Xu." Xu Jie quickly replied.


    "In Merton, xiamojia village, I sincerely invite Mr. to be the foreign affairs manager of my Mojia village." Merton said positively.


    "Mojiazi!" Xu Jie was shocked. As a Chang''an man, he certainly knew the name of Merton. He didn''t expect that the famous mojiazi in Chang''an City would come to invite him in person.


    "Thank you for your kindness, young master. It''s just that Xu offended a powerful family. Those green skins just now are just pawns. Thanks for your help, I don''t dare to add trouble to the young master." Xu Jie said bitterly.


    "Sir, is there a debt contract dispute!" Merton asked with a raised eyebrow.


    "No!" Xu Jie shook his head


    "Is there a lawsuit!" Merton asked again.


    "Never" Xu Jie suddenly raised his voice.


    "That Mo thinks he doesn''t have any trouble," Morton said confidently


    Xu Jie will never forget this day. A teenager gave him the greatest respect when he was at his most depressed.

 Chapter 151

    Xu Jie, the famous God of wealth in Chang''an City, started from scratch and built a huge family business in Chang''an city with bare hands. However, Xu''s business collapsed overnight at its most brilliant time.


    After such twists and turns, Xu Jie couldn''t help looking at the confident Merton in front of him in a trance!


    "I''m afraid I''m going to disappoint the young master! Xu is already a defeated general and I''m afraid he can''t afford the burden of Mohist village!" Mohist son Merton and his Mohist village rose like a comet in Chang''an and made miracles repeatedly. He has been down to this state. It''s false to say he''s indifferent, but Xu Jie shook his head and said when he thought of the monster that destroyed him.


    "I''ve heard that there''s something else behind the collapse of Xu''s firm. It''s not Mr. Merton''s fault!" Merton said.


    The reason why Merton found Xu Jie is, on the one hand, Xu Jie''s once brilliant business empire, on the other hand, Xu Jie''s good reputation. Even if he finally goes bankrupt, he will still pay off all his debts, otherwise he will not be reduced to the current level of poverty.


    Xu Jie smiled miserably when he heard the speech.


    "Xu was not defeated by anyone, but by power." a look of resentment appeared on Xu Jie''s face.


    Under Xu Jie''s strategy, Xu''s firm has become prosperous. In ten years, it has earned a lot of wealth and become a new upstart in Chang''an city. However, the wealth moved people''s hearts. Xu''s firm was favored by powerful people and intended to be included in the bag. At that time, the arrogant Xu Jie certainly disagreed.


    "Overnight, all the partners withdrew, the suppliers ran out of goods, a large number of orders were broken, and Xu Jie''s many years of operation was destroyed." Xu Jie recalled that this scene was still angina pectoris. The other party was well prepared and powerful, and directly killed him. Even some dignitaries who once attached to him, not only did not help, but advised Xu Jie to admit defeat.


    "They want to swallow Xu''s years of hard work, but Xu doesn''t let him like it. Xu closes the store, dismisses all the guys and makes them empty."


    Xu Jie said unyielding, with a trace of perseverance on his face.


    Merton felt dejected. This is the sadness of this era. The power of businessmen is simply vulnerable in front of dignitaries.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief and could think of the dilemma Xu Jie faced at that time. If he bowed his head, it would not be the current embarrassing situation. At least he could have enough food and clothing, but he chose fierce means and would rather be broken than broken.


    "Unexpectedly, Mr. Xu has closed Xu''s firm, so why do these green skins still make trouble!" Merton wondered. He also heard Qingpi''s words that a childe wanted to forcibly recruit Xu Jie.


    Xu Jie''s face said secretly, "I didn''t expect Xu to spend all his money. They still didn''t let go. They even took a fancy to Xu''s broken body."


    Merton suddenly realized that Xu Jie was able to make Xu''s firm so big. Obviously, he had great business talent. It can be said that with Xu Jie, there will be a new Xu''s firm in less than ten years.


    "Master Mo, do you know what conditions they started?" Xu Jie said with a tragic smile without waiting for Merton''s answer: "into the house as a slave!"


    "Into the house as a slave?" Morton exclaimed! He didn''t expect the other party to be so cruel. Once he entered the house as a slave, he could only serve them all his life. It was like holding Xu Caishen in the palm of his hand.


    Ink two and Tien An face are also the color of resentment. It is too much. It not only secretly makes Yin Xu destroy the Xu''s firm, but also wants to let people into the government as slaves. MOE two and Tien An follow moton, but they are all good people who have registered residence in Mojia Village, and even have their own fields.


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Xu! Mohism advocates universal love, not attacking and advocating talents. With your talents, Merton will treat you politely." Merton said.


    "Master Mo''s love shames Xu, but Xu offends the Taiyuan Wang family. The prince of the Wang family speaks in Chang''an city. If anyone dares to cooperate with Xu, he is the enemy of the Wang family." Xu Jie''s face is gray.


    "Taiyuan Wang''s family?" Morton was stunned and couldn''t help thinking of Wang''s fish shop and Master Wang Ling. It is said that they are also people of Taiyuan Wang''s family.


    "Xu knows that Mojia village once had a festival with Wang''s fish shop, but it''s only a subsidiary of the Wang''s family, and staring at Xu''s firm is the real Wang''s family!" Xu Jie obviously knows very well about Mojia village.


    "King but not king, not king but king! Taiyuan Wang family!" Merton''s face was dignified.


    The so-called flowing imperial court and iron aristocratic family, among many aristocratic families, one of the most special is the Taiyuan royal family.


    The surname Wang evolved from the title of the king of China''s supreme ruler in ancient times, which is the biggest feature that distinguishes it from other surnames. In history, few people surnamed Wang ascended the throne. Even if they did, they all ended in a very tragic situation. The most typical example is Wang Mang usurping the Han Dynasty.


    Therefore, people surnamed Wang changed their strategy and began to assist the emperor to open the pattern of not being a king but a king.


    Among them, the Langya Wang family in the Southern Dynasty was the one who reached the peak of power. In fact, they had the conditions to win the throne, but they never did. The peak reached by Langya Wang family is unprecedented. I''m afraid no aristocratic family can reach it in the future,


    Later, the Wang family in Taiyuan created the situation of ranking among the five famous families for 200 years, and helped the Li family and his son create the Tang Dynasty.


    Merton suddenly, in the face of such a powerful family, no wonder Xu''s firm collapsed without a chance to resist.


    "Master Mo, Xu will remember the kindness of helping today and allow him to report it in the future!" Xu Jie arched his hand. He didn''t hold any hope for Merton''s solicitation. After all, the name of the Taiyuan King''s family is there, and no one is willing to offend such a powerful person for a businessman.


    "Mr. Xu, wait a minute!" when Xu Jie was dejected, Merton''s voice sounded again.


    Xu Jie paused and turned to see Merton''s confident smiling face.


    "Have you really never had a financial dispute, sir?" Merton asked again.


    "Really not." Xu Jie''s heart moved and Lang said.


    "Is there really no lawsuit?"


    "Of course not!" Xu Jie said with a smile.


    "What''s the reason for Mo to give up such a talent!" Merton said solemnly.


    "Even offend the Taiyuan Wang family!" Xu Jie asked again.


    "This is Chang''an City, not Taiyuan!" Merton said. Although the Taiyuan Wangs are powerful, how can they cover up the sky and bully an ordinary businessman in Chang''an City? If they meet the Mojia village at the height of the sun, they will say.


    "Mojia village is not Xu''s business!" Xu Jie added silently in his heart.


    As a famous businessman in Chang''an, how could he not know that the Mojia village and the simple Mojia son are thousands of times better than joining the king''s house as slaves and joining the booming Mojia village.


    "Xu Jie pays a visit to his boss!" there was no big scene or inspiring speech. In front of the dilapidated thatched house, a person at the helm of the future largest business empire of Datang was quietly born.

 Chapter 152

    "Mr. Xu! It''s not peaceful here. Please move to Mo mansion for a while." Merton frowned at the thatched house and the noisy environment in front of him.


    "Thank you so much for the East family!" Xu Jie even promised to work for Mojia village. Naturally, he won''t be pretentious. Even if he can stand such an environment, he should also consider it for his wife. Ma San and others have been harassing at home these days, which has already made Xu uneasy and frightened.


    There are not many things in the Xu family. There is nothing valuable in a broken thatched house. Simply clean it up and leave with Merton.


    Watching the carriage of Mojia village leave, Ma Sanyi looked gloomy.


    "Third brother! Xu ran away! What should I do?" a attendant asked.


    "Keep up, I''ll see who dares to meddle in the affairs of the prince." Ma San said ruthlessly.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Mo Fu!


    Ma Sanyi followed and watched Xu Jie get out of the carriage and enter the ink house.


    "Mojiazi!" Ma Sanyi was shocked. He didn''t expect that Xu Jie took refuge in the newly rising mojiazi in Chang''an city.


    "Young master!"


    Seeing Merton get off the bus, fuber greeted him.


    "Fubo! This is Mr. Xu. First arrange a room for Mr. Xu in Mo mansion! Wait a while, and then find a house for Mr. Xu in Chang''an City for another placement!" Merton ordered Fubo.


    "OK, young master! Please make do with it for a while!" Fubo already knew the purpose of Merton''s trip. Seeing the three members of Xu Jie''s family, he naturally knew that the young master had succeeded.


    "Where, where! Is Xu disturbing!"


    Although living in the Mo mansion feels like being surrounded by others, he also knows that he is being watched by the Taiyuan Wang family. Living in the Mo mansion is probably the best choice. He won''t refuse at the moment.


    "Mo Er, I haven''t arranged to help Mr. Xu move things yet. In the future, you''ll follow Mr. Xu to help!" Merton ordered.


    He asked Mo Er to follow Xu Jie. On the one hand, Xu Jie just came and didn''t understand the situation. He really needed a person from the Mojia village to facilitate and communicate with him. On the other hand, he focused on cultivating Mo Er. After all, in addition to Mo Si, several other people in the Mofu had a way out. Moreover, Mo Er was inspiring and could be made.


    "Yes, young master!"


    Mo Er said happily. Of course, he knew the meaning of young master''s cultivation.


    In the living room,


    Xu Jie is quietly listening to Fubo''s introduction to Mojia village. Xu Jie listens very carefully. If he doesn''t understand, he asks carefully.


    "The main products of Mojia village are live fish, chickens, ducks, geese, cubs, Quyuan plow, columbine, waterwheel and well killing, all of which are popular in Guanzhong. The ink hospital in Chang''an City, ink magazine, fish champion building and Goubuli steamed stuffed bun are all the industries of Mojia village. In addition, there is a 500 mu experimental field in Mojia village outside the city," said Fu Bo proudly.


    Merton was in a trance. He didn''t expect that there were so many industries in Mojia village unconsciously.


    Xu Jie also laments that Mojia village has grown from scratch. It is incredible that it has grown from a poor village to its current scale in just six months. All these miracles in front of him were created by a 15-year-old boy. It should be said that Xu Jie was only forced by the courtesy of reality and Merton when he joined Mojia village, but now he is a little lucky.


    "I don''t know Mr. Xu''s advice to Mojia village!" Merton lowered his figure and asked.


    Xu Jie shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Xu has been doing business with his father since childhood. He has been used to all kinds of commercial means in his life. Impolitely, Mojia village has almost no commercial means, but it is the most secure business Xu has ever seen!"


    Xu Jie couldn''t help sighing. His business empire seemed prosperous, but it couldn''t stand much storms. Once the powerful shot, it immediately fell apart. On the contrary, Mojia village produced every output in Mojia village, using the people of Mojia village. Its own workshop has an unbreakable foundation.


    "Mr. Xu praised it falsely. There are many shortcomings in Mojia village. Please pay more attention to Mr. Xu in the future, Merton." Merton said.


    The people of Mojia village are not inferior to anyone in their work skills, but there are very few people who can do business.


    "Thank you for your trust. I''ll do my best!" Xu Jie''s heart flashed a little excited. His once discouraged heart was hot again.


    Mojia village is a piece of jade. Every output is made by people without me. People have my excellent products. With a little operation, it will be popular in the Tang Dynasty. Xu Jieguang has already had several abdominal cases in his heart after listening to Fubo''s introduction.


    "Well, with Mr. Xu''s trust, Mojia village will be even stronger! As for Mr. Xu''s salary, it is tentatively determined that the monthly salary will be 100% and there will be another dividend at the end of the year!" Merton said with great joy.


    "Thank you, boss!"


    Although Baiguan money was not much for the former God of wealth, it was one of the highest salaries for a shopkeeper.


    As for the dividend, although Xu Jie didn''t know what the dividend meant, he also knew it must be a reward. He smiled and nodded at the moment, but he didn''t know the meaning of Mojia village


    "Since Mr. has no objection, don''t rest here. How about taking Mr. moer to Mojia village tomorrow and taking office again!" Merton said.


    "Thank you for your understanding!" Xu Jie nodded.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Buy a horse?" Merton looked at the dusty Xu Jie in surprise.


    Xu Jie stayed in Mojia village for two days. In addition to intuitively avoiding several core secret places, he walked around Mojia village inside and outside. When he returned to Chang''an City, he immediately put forward this proposal like Merton.


    "Boss! When I was in xiamojia village, I found that the number of cattle and horses was very small. Even the convoy transporting goods to Chang''an city mostly used manpower." Xu Jie said.


    Merton nodded. Mojia village had just sprung up for only half a year, and there were not many cattle and horses. At the beginning, in order to take care of all the villagers, he wanted to use manpower everywhere, and he never thought of using animal power.


    "The boss, Mojia village has reached the bottleneck now. If the ambition of Mojia village is only Chang''an City, the current form is enough, but if it intends to the whole Guanzhong, it may need a lot of horses to reduce road loss." Xu Jie analyzed.


    "What if I want to spread the products of Mojia village throughout the whole Tang Dynasty?" Merton said.


    Xu Jie raised his head and looked at Merton''s indifferent expression. His heart was like a rough sea. He was a businessman in the Tang Dynasty. He didn''t expect that the ambition of the Mojia village was so great.


    Xu Jie said word by word: "the demand for horses in Mojia village will never end."


    "Oh! It''s said that the biggest horse dealer in Chang''an city is the Taiyuan Wang family. I don''t know if shopkeeper Xu can accompany him to choose a good horse, which can be regarded as preparing a ride for Mr. Xu." Merton suddenly got up and said.


    "What you wish for!" Xu Jielang said.

 Chapter 153

    "Dongweng! This is the west market!"


    Led by Xu Jie, Merton and his party came to the west city of Chang''an city. The Sui and Tang dynasties actually encouraged commercial development. When Chang''an city was under construction, it was specially divided into East and West cities for commercial development.


    Compared with the exquisite prosperity of the east city, the west city is more rough and crazy. The slightly cheap industry of car and horse travel is also planned in the west city.


    "Young master! You see that Hu man looks so strange!" tie an said in surprise as he watched a hu man with curly hair and blue eyes skillfully dealing with vendors.


    "Blond hair and blue eyes, so scary!" Mo Er also agreed.


    "That''s the Hu people of the western regions! Although they look fierce, they are actually the most realistic. It''s much easier to do business with them than Tang businessmen!" Xu Jie said.


    As the starting point of the Silk Road, Chang''an city will certainly attract many people from the western regions. Especially in recent years, the prestige of the Tang Dynasty has increased day by day, and countless Western adventurers have come to search for gold.


    "Blond hair and blue eyes are just caused by the different living environment of Hu people. Their essence is no different from that of normal people. Let alone blond hair and blue eyes. In the extreme west south, people there have dark skin as if they were black charcoal. Mohist ancestors called them black people. Our skin is yellow, we are yellow people, and blond hair and blue eyes are white people!" Merton simply popularized the three races, which immediately caused the three people to exclaim. Even Xu Jie had never heard of such a surprise.


    There are many Hu people in Chang''an city. With the four people going deep into the western market, many shops are even opened by Hu people. They speak fluent Mandarin and skillfully bargain with the people, which is no different from that of the Tang people.


    The people of Mojia village have just come to Chang''an city. Everything in the west city feels very novel. They walk around and go deep all the way. They unknowingly come to a place where horses hiss and cows moo.


    West City car and horse line!


    "Dongweng! This is the largest horse trading center in Datang. Whether it''s a tall horse in the western regions or a Turkic horse with amazing endurance, it has everything!" Xu Jie pointed to the horse circles, in which there are countless fine horses.


    "ßÔ ßÔ!"


    "Hiss!"


    There are fine horses everywhere in the car and horse shop. The horse circles are full of fine horses, and the horses hiss constantly.


    "Herod!"


    A horse hissed like a dragon, which immediately attracted the eyes of Merton and others.


    "Young master, look at that horse!" tie an surprised pointed to a tall and unusual horse road. The horse''s hair color was snow-white without any mottled color. It glittered in the sunlight, just like wearing a silver silk.


    "Gentlemen! This is a Turkic BMW named Jinglei. It''s the leader of a wild horse group, but it took a lot of people to catch it." a green clothes man saw several people in Merton, was attracted, and immediately greeted them with a warm reception.


    "Three thousand Guan! So expensive?" tiean exclaimed at the price.


    Three thousand passes are not worth three thousand passes even if the rich families in Chang''an City lose their wealth! At the moment, a horse costs 3000 yuan. People are really inferior to horses.


    "If it''s too expensive, I have some other war horses here, all of which are first-class and good horses!" the man in Tsing Yi didn''t want to sell BMW Jinglei once. It''s just a sign of the horse shop to attract customers!


    The green clothes waiter led Merton and his party to another horse circle. The horses in this horse circle are fat and healthy, and their hair color is bright. Although they are not as good as thunder and appearance, they belong to first-class horses with the highest profit.


    "Two hundred passes!"


    "Three hundred passes!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tie''an and Mo''er looked at the amazing prices! Shaking his head, Mojia village has just become rich. The previous style of hard work and simplicity has long been branded in the bones. Where are you willing to spend so much money.


    "I''m waiting to come this time, mainly to buy a cart horse!" Xu Jie said.


    The green clothes man''s face suddenly lost spirit and led Merton and his party to the largest horse circle. The horses here are generally short and thin! And the varieties are mixed.


    "Dongweng! Pulling a cart is elected as a Turkic horse. Although it is short, it has amazing endurance. Secondly, the Shuzhong horses of the Tang Dynasty are also OK, and other horses are inferior," Xu Jie analyzed Merton.


    "This is also an objective person who knows the goods. An ordinary Turkic horse has 40 passes, a Shu horse has 30 passes, and other local horses have 25 passes!" the Qingyi man quoted.


    "It''s so expensive, Qingyi man. We sell a lot this time. Can we offer a discount?" Mo Er said.


    According to Xu Jie''s estimation, Mojia village needs at least nearly 200 horses this time. If the cost-effective Shu Malay is calculated, it also needs nearly 6000 yuan. Although Mojia village has made a lot of money during this period, it is a big business after all, with a one-time expenditure of 6000 yuan, which is also a huge expenditure.


    "It''s too expensive! It''s too expensive. You can buy one of these horses for five Guan dollars and pick it at will?" the green clothes man sneered and pointed to the messy horse circle at the bottom.


    "Five dollars a horse?"


    "So cheap?"


    Mo Er and tie an exclaimed.


    "Sick horse?"


    Merton frowned and looked at the flagging horses in the horse circle. The horses in other horse circles were also very active, but the horses in this horse circle were dead and didn''t move for a long time.


    "How could it be a sick horse? There are so many horses here. Once there are sick horses, they will be treated immediately to avoid infecting other horses. Don''t worry, these horses are not sick, but hurt the horses!" said the Qingyi man. It''s not that the Qingyi man is honest, but that these injuries can''t be concealed at all.


    "Dongweng, look, the hoofs of these horses have cracked!" Xu Jie pointed to the hoofs and motioned to Merton.


    The horse''s hoof is a stratum corneum. Once the heavy work is done, if the operation is improper or the force is too strong, it will cause the horse''s hoof to crack. The most important thing for the horse is speed and foot strength. Once the horse''s hoof cracks and the horse''s hoof can''t work hard, the horse will be abandoned!


    "Crack, no matter how long it will be?" tie an wondered.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "no matter how good a horse is, once its hooves crack, it will be useless, because unlike other animals, Marco stands all day, and the weight of his whole body is pressed on his hooves. Once it cracks, it can''t grow well! As long as it moves, the wound will only crack bigger and bigger until he dies!"


    "Ah!"


    The crowd exclaimed! Looking at the horse circle in shock, no wonder these horses are so depressed. The horses are psychic and obviously know their fate.


    "It seems that this gentleman has strong eyesight, and I won''t hide it from you. For example, this horse is called Jue Ying! It''s a famous horse as famous as Jinglei. It''s just because the horse''s hoof is cracked. Now it''s waiting to die here!" the green clothes man pointed to a large but bony horse path in the horse pen.


    "Seriously?" Mo Er exclaimed.


    They saw with their own eyes what a divine horse Jinglei was, and the skinny injured horse in front of them was as famous as Jinglei. When they looked, they saw an amazing crack on the back horse''s hoof of Jue Ying, with flesh and blood turned out, which was very frightening. Jue Ying, like Jinglei, is a sign used by the horse shop to attract customers. Unfortunately, Jue Ying ran wildly and suddenly hurt the horse''s hoof, so Jinglei can replace it.


    His forehead is bulging, his eyes are prominent, and his figure is symmetrical. Even if he is skinny, he can still distinguish him from other injured horses at a glance. Xu Jie nodded a little and believed the Qingyi man''s words. This shadow was indeed a good horse.


    Seeing the crowd watching, the Jue Ying begged for a cry. The voice involuntarily revealed a trace of sadness. Tears rolled in both eyes. It was full of spirituality, which made people feel heartache.


    "OK, I''ll take it!"


    Merton said suddenly.


    A smile appeared on the green clothes man''s face. He said that the purpose of these is to see Merton''s young impulse and try to deal with the dead shadow. After all, he won''t live long without dealing with the dead shadow. If he hits him, he will be punished. If he can sell a dying horse for five Guan money, he will certainly receive a reward from the top.


    "OK, my guest, I''ll bring it out for you." the green clothes man hurriedly said.


    "No!" Merton said word by word. "I mean, I want all the wounded horses!"


    "Ah!"


    Not only the Qingyi man, but also Xu Jie and others can''t believe looking at Merton. If Merton spends five Guan money to buy peace of mind, it''s nothing!, But there are hundreds of injured horses in this horse circle. That''s not a small number!

 Chapter 154

    "What?"


    Not only the Qingyi guys were surprised, but even Xu Jie and others were stunned.


    "Dong Weng?"


    Xu Jie hurried.


    Xu Jie didn''t pay much attention to buying a Jue shadow. He was happy to spend money on his owner, but Merton directly bought so many injured horses. The money spent was not a small amount.


    Xu Jie was eager to persuade Merton, but suddenly felt that someone was quietly pulling the corners of his clothes. When he turned his head, he found that the hidden alignment of Mo Er''s face made him wink.


    Xu Jie was stunned and found that Mo Er and tie an had a calm face and didn''t want to dissuade Merton at all.


    "You...?" Xu Jie was a little angry and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.


    "Isn''t......" Xu Jie has long heard of the magical reputation of Mohist school. If Merton''s move has another meaning, I''m afraid the harvest of Mohist village is too great.


    "Seriously?" the Tsing Yi man said in surprise.


    His original plan was to sell a vanishing shadow. Now it seems that the surprise came so suddenly that the rich young master wanted to buy all the injured horses!


    You know, these injured horses can no longer be used for many purposes. They also consume a lot of forage every day, but it would be too bad to kill and sell horse meat directly. It''s chicken ribs for the horse shop.


    If you can really sell these injured horses at a low price, it will be a great achievement for him! I''m sure I can make a big face in front of the shopkeeper.


    Merton was waiting to answer, but found that Xu Jie stepped out and said, "since the young master wants to buy, buy it, but the price still needs to be discussed!"


    Under Xu Jie''s strong commercial ability, the Tsing Yi guys have been losing ground, and the price has retreated again and again.


    "No, it''s the biggest concession within my authority to run through one injured horse in four at least!" the Qingyi man said reluctantly. He didn''t expect that this ugly guy would be so calculating and force him directly to the bottom line.


    "OK, my little brother is young and can make this big business. His future must be unlimited!" Xu Jie patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile.


    The boy in Tsing Yi wiped his sweat and smiled. Although he didn''t mention much money for this business, he was able to sell these horses, leaving a lot of expenses for the horse shop.


    A willing buyer and willing seller soon reached an agreement. The horse bank invited the toothers in Xishi as a witness.


    "My guest, are you sure you don''t want to think about it?" the man in the toothshop is a white haired old man in his fifties, surnamed Zhou, who is also an old qualification in the west city.


    Looking at the fresh faces of Merton, I couldn''t help but remind him that he has been a toother in Xishi for many years, and such a wonderful transaction is the first time I''ve seen.


    "Don''t think about it! Sign it!" Merton said firmly.


    Listening to Merton''s firm tone, Xu Jie suddenly understood, while Mo Er and tie settled down with such an expression.


    "You old man, do you still do business or not?" said the man in green impatiently.


    "Well, even if you both agree, I''ll seal it, but no one can go back!" Zhou Zhongren shook his head and said, it''s no wonder that he did so. Every business of dental bank has a bonus, which is also good for Zhou Zhongren.


    "A total of 131 horses." Zhou Zhongren finished counting the number of injured horses


    Xu Jie immediately presented 524 yuan! Both parties signed and signed, and Zhou Zhongren sealed. One of the most wonderful businesses in Xi''an city is to make this business a real hammer with the greatest speed. Both sides can''t go back.


    "Congratulations, shopkeeper Xu! You will make a lot of money if these wounded horses are cured in the future!" seeing that the business is done, the Qingyi man said with a smile. Of course, Xu Jie did all the signing and painting, and the Qingyi man saw Xu Jie''s name from here.


    "Easy to say, easy to say!" although Xu Jie had no bottom in his heart, he chose to believe Merton at the moment.


    "Hey!" Zhou Zhongren shook his head and sighed. This business is the strangest one he has done. Even if he gets benefits, he still feels very sorry.


    "Zhou Zhongren, please stay!" when Zhou Zhongren left, Xu Jie''s voice sounded again.


    "Shopkeeper Xu? He has signed a pledge and can''t go back!" Zhou Zhongren shook his head like a rattle,.


    Xu Jie said with a smile: "the people of Zhou Zhong are joking. What the business pays attention to is reputation. They have signed a pledge. Naturally, they won''t go back."


    "Is that shopkeeper Xu looking for Laozao?" Zhou Zhongren wondered.


    "There are still a few transactions, I''m afraid it will bother the people of Zhou." looking at Xu Jie''s smiling face, the people of Zhou were surprised to grow up!


    Ah! I don''t think so!


    Businessmen are the most informed people. Sometimes information is equal to business opportunities.


    Today, all the merchants in the west market were detonated by the news that a foolish young master bought more than 100 injured horses at once.


    "No, it''s not just more than a hundred, it''s said to be more than two hundred!"


    "Now there are more than 400 horses!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Boss, this is the last batch!" Xu Jie, who was sweating, came to Merton with a stiff faced Zhou Zhongren.


    Zhou Zhongren looked at more than 500 injured horses in front of him, and the whole person collapsed. These businesses came from his hands. He felt that there would be a stain that could never be eliminated in his career. Heaven and earth conscience. It was really not that he united with the foolish young master of the unscrupulous horse dealer pit, but if he said this, no one would believe it.


    "Let Zhou Zhongren suffer!" Merton said. As soon as he nodded, Xu Jie immediately understood and handed a bag of silver to Zhou Zhongren as labor fee.


    "Just be happy!"


    The man in the middle of Zhou said in a wooden way. At the same time, he resolutely refused to accept Xu Jie''s silver. He thought that the silly young master had paid enough today and asked for labor fees himself. I''m afraid I can''t live with my conscience.


    More than 500 injured horses gathered at the gate of the horse shop. It was a spectacular scene,


    "I''m afraid this is the biggest business of the horse shop since the establishment of the west market!" a businessman who came on hearing the news looked at the spectacular horses and said sarcastically. He bought more than 500 horses at once. I''m afraid this kind of business is very rare even at the border!


    "Really hurt the horse!"


    Many people looked at the crippled horse in front of them. Almost every horse had shocking tears on its hooves, and some even had four hoofs.


    "It''s not a silly young master. I''m afraid my family will be furious if they know."


    "The young master doesn''t know, but it was a shopkeeper named Xu Jie who signed the painting!" said a well-informed person.


    "Xu Jie, Xu Caishen?" someone exclaimed, suddenly in an uproar.


    "It''s impossible! Xu Caishen is not bankrupt. I''m afraid it''s difficult to take out even his usual money now. How can he take out so much money."


    There are more than 500 injured horses. Even if each horse is worth four yuan, there are also as much as two thousand yuan. Xu Caishen, who has settled down, can''t take it out at all.


    "Oh, isn''t this Xu Caishen? I think Wang admired Xu Caishen when he spent a lot of money!" a loud voice came. It shocked everyone.


    "Xu Caishen, I didn''t expect to be the real Xu Caishen." the people in the west market were in an uproar. No one thought that Xu Caishen, who had fallen into the dust, would make a comeback again, and his shot was 500 wounded horses they couldn''t understand.

 Chapter 155

    "Xu Caishen, I didn''t think it was really Xu Caishen."


    There was an uproar in the western market. Xu Jie''s reputation was already great in Chang''an city. In addition, his meteoric bankruptcy caused an uproar in Chang''an business circles.


    No one expected that Xu Caishen, who was originally thought to have fallen into the dust, would make a comeback again, and his shot was 500 wounded horses they couldn''t understand.


    "Shopkeeper Wang!" Xu Jie looked at the source of the voice with a gloomy face and said in a hate voice.


    "Here comes the shopkeeper of Ma Hang Wang!" the onlookers said one after another.


    "Shopkeeper Wang?" Merton couldn''t help looking at the owner of the voice in surprise, a fat middle-aged man in royal clothes. This is the first time Merton saw shopkeeper Wang, but their gratitude and resentment can be traced back to a long time. The shopkeeper Wang in front of him is shopkeeper Wang of Wang''s fish shop.


    After the fish shop of the Wang family was crushed by the live fish business of Mojia village, shopkeeper Wang was broken by the fish master. After the injury was cured, shopkeeper Wang didn''t know what way to go. He threw himself around the young master of the Wang family''s eldest house and offered a poison plan to destroy Xu Caishen. Only then did he ascend to the sky and sit in the fat job of the shopkeeper of the horse shop.


    "Xu Caishen, came to the west market to buy horses without informing my younger brother. You know, most of the horse shops in the west market are the property of the king''s family in Taiyuan!" shopkeeper Wang said proudly.


    Taiyuan is close to Turks in the north. The Wang family of Taiyuan is very close to Turks. They can get a large number of horses from Turks every year. Coupled with the power of the Wang family of Taiyuan, they have become the largest horse dealer in Chang''an city. Many horse shops in the west city are controlled by the Wang family of Taiyuan.


    "No, I can''t stand being a brother with shopkeeper Wang!" Xu Jie said sarcastically.


    All the businessmen present knew the gratitude and resentment between Xu Caishen and shopkeeper Wang. They couldn''t help pointing and looking at shopkeeper Wang with a trace of vigilance. After all, no one wanted to be watched by such a villain.


    "You are Xu Jie!" a high voice sounded.


    The crowd separated, and a young master in royal clothes of about 20 years old, surrounded by a crowd of servants, came out of the crowd.


    "Ah! It''s Wang Zhe, young master Wang!"


    The crowd exclaimed!


    The Taiyuan Wang family has a high status. Wang Zhe is the direct young master of the Taiyuan Wang family and controls many businesses in Chang''an city. As long as Wang Zhe looses his mouth, it is a large business.


    As soon as Wang Zhe appeared, many businessmen from the western market rushed up and came forward to meet him.


    "Young master Wang, Jin''an!"


    "Young master Wang, you can come to Wei''s firm in your spare time. My young master has been looking forward to you for a long time."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­


    Wang Zhe smiled and greeted one by one, showing the style of the children of the aristocratic family.


    "Young master! He is Xu Jie." shopkeeper Wang hurried forward and flattered.


    "Yes, it''s Xu!" Xu Jie stared at young master Wang. If shopkeeper Wang was a bad dog, Wang Zhe in front of him was the owner of the bad dog. The sudden collapse of Xu''s firm overnight was his means.


    "Oh! I''m a little brave. No wonder I dare to refuse the young master''s kindness. Now I''ll give you another chance. As long as you promise to join the Wang family firm, you can choose all the positions." Wang Zhe said proudly, as if giving a bone to a stray dog.


    "Oh! What if I want the position of shopkeeper Wang?" Xu Jie raised his eyebrows.


    Shopkeeper Wang immediately jumped in his heart and looked at Wang Zhe eagerly.


    "At this time, I still want to provoke, but so what? As long as you are willing to come, the shopkeeper of Wang''s horse shop will be yours immediately." Wang Zhe said proudly, and didn''t care about shopkeeper Wang''s face at all.


    Shopkeeper Wang''s face suddenly darkened and his heart was desolate.


    "Unfortunately, I don''t have the habit of being a slave!" Xu Jie snorted coldly.


    "Into the house as a slave?"


    The reason why Xu Jie refused Wang Zhe suddenly came to the people around him. Otherwise, who wouldn''t want to join the Taiyuan Wang family? After all, it''s good to enjoy the cool under the big tree. With the relationship of the Wang family, it must be easy to start business.


    "Hum! What a compliment! My young master was so sorry for you that he went to find a way to live for you. Unexpectedly, you were willing to degenerate and didn''t appreciate it." shopkeeper Wang couldn''t help but rejoice that he gave a poisonous trick to bring down Xu Jie. Xu Jie must hate him to the bone. If Xu Jie really promised to join the king''s family in Taiyuan, I''m afraid it would be his doomsday.


    Wang Zhe''s face was immediately embarrassed. He was the direct line of the Taiyuan Wang family. Usually, who dared not give him face? I didn''t expect that a small businessman dared to refuse him again and again.


    "Young master, why do you have to share common knowledge with such people who don''t appreciate it? In my opinion, Xu Caishen is just a vain name. He bought so many wounded horses. In my opinion, the name of the God of wealth has long been ruined, just like this wounded horse. It''s useless." shopkeeper Wang said.


    "Wounded horse? The wounded horse in your eyes, in Mo''s eyes, is a thousand mile horse that can travel thousands of miles a day." a voice came from the wounded horses, and Merton came out and said proudly.


    "See Dong Weng!" Xu Jie bowed.


    "Ah!"


    "Xu Caishen joined others!"


    "Who dares not to give the prince face and secretly cut his beard?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the people in the west market immediately exclaimed and talked about it. Although Xu Caishen has declined, anyone knows Wang Zhe''s words in Chang''an city. Otherwise, with Xu Jie''s ability, he can join any business without worry. Where will he be reduced to such a tight situation.


    Therefore, businesses in Chang''an City avoided Xu Jie like snakes and scorpions for fear that they might offend the Wang family. Where did you think that someone really dared to take the risk of offending the Taiyuan Wang family and accepted Xu Jie.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Shopkeeper Wang said gnashing his teeth. Suddenly, new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart. It was the live fish business of Mojia village at the beginning, which forcibly destroyed his Wangjia fish shop. Even his whole body injury pointed to Mojia village. However, when he was cured, Mojia village had become a climate, and he had no way to retaliate.


    "Merton!" Wang Zhe immediately narrowed his eyes. Xu Jie joined Mojia village. He had already received a report from Ma San and others. He knew that Merton personally came to pick up Xu Jie.


    As for the name of Mohist son Merton, he is well-known even in Taiyuan. No matter how great his achievements are, there is always a high name on his head. Mohist son, with his own strength, has built a poor Mohist village into a paradise; With one''s own strength, he pressed all the talents in Chang''an City, and brought back a Mohist school that had declined for thousands of years.


    "Mohist son Merton!"


    "Originally, the God of wealth joined the newly rising Mohist village!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the merchants in the west market were in an uproar. They couldn''t help looking at the two young masters who were young and had great power. At this time, the rising son of the Mohist family, Merton, even met the legitimate son of the king''s family of five famous families


    Mohist vs Taiyuan Wangs, there''s a good play to see.

 Chapter 156

    Wang Zhe looked at Merton''s face, which was younger than himself. It was a young man with a weak crown in front of him. He even pressed thousands of talents in Chang''an City and became a big mountain on the head of all the young generation.


    But Merton''s names didn''t scare him. Behind him was the Taiyuan Wang family.


    "Qianlima? Brother Mo must think too highly of this person. I''m afraid the family of Mojia village will be almost defeated by the wounded horses he bought! As long as brother Mo gives this person to the Wang family, Wang will be the master. The agreements signed by these wounded horses bought by Mojia village today will be invalid." Wang Zhe said proudly.


    "Prince Renyi, this is a big business of more than 2000. If you say it is invalid, it will be invalid!"


    "Mojia village has just started for a few months. After all, it has a shallow foundation. It can reduce the loss of these two thousand passes. It can also be regarded as letting go of Mojia village."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Among the crowd, businessmen who wanted to curry favor with Wang Zhe echoed one after another.


    "Xu Jie is now the foreign affairs manager of our Mojia village. How can we let go of the talents that Mo has finally invited?" Merton shook his head.


    Wang Zhe''s face was gloomy when he heard the speech. He didn''t expect Merton to refuse him so crisp! It made him feel ashamed.


    "Brother Mo is rejecting the kindness of the Taiyuan Wang family? As long as brother Mo hands over this person, not only will these wounded horses be invalid, but also the gratitude and resentment between brother Mo and Wang Ling can be resolved," Wang Zhe said.


    Wang Ling was forced to drop out of the Imperial College, which caused a lot of waves in the royal family in Taiyuan. Although Wang Ling is just a collateral, being able to enter the imperial college means that she is the seedling of an official. Even the royal family in Taiyuan is also a valuable resource. Who knows, Wang Ling was run by Merton and can no longer stand in the Imperial College. This is a big loss for the Taiyuan Wang family.


    "Listen to what childe Wang said, then I can''t let shopkeeper Xu go. After all, it must be superior to let childe Wang pay such a big price. However, childe Wang is wrong. It''s not shopkeeper Xu who really wants to buy these wounded horses, but me!" Merton said.


    "What?"


    Merton''s words immediately aroused everyone''s exclamation!


    If Xu Caishen bought these injured horses, people might ridicule and doubt that injured horses can''t be of much value after all.


    But Mohism is different. After all, Merton has proved himself with all kinds of legendary deeds. He can create miracles many times.


    "Can these injured horses really be cured?"


    A strange idea lingers in people''s hearts. If these injured horses can really recover, my God! What a windfall it would be.


    "It''s impossible?"


    Everyone doesn''t believe that the injured horse can recover again. Even the magical Mohist can''t change this fact for thousands of years.


    Wang Zhe sneered and said, "I didn''t expect that the famous Mohist Zi also knew about horses, and even fell in love with these broken horses. Wang came to Chang''an this time and originally wanted to go to the Mohist house for advice. Now it doesn''t seem necessary. It''s just a false rumour and a false name."


    Since mojiazi is ungrateful, don''t blame him for his impoliteness. The injured horse has recovered. Even in the horse business of the king''s family in Taiyuan for hundreds of years, I haven''t seen the injured horse recover as before. Even if there is a slight injured horse, it''s impossible to make great efforts.


    It''s better to take this opportunity to destroy the reputation of Mozi and Xu Caishen and kill two birds with one stone. It can also be regarded as revenge for my cousin.


    Merton smiled gently and said, "although the prince was born in a horse merchant family, he doesn''t know a truth. If you want him to use his power for thousands of miles, you must give him a way and know his meaning. For example, if you use a horse as a slave and circle a horse, you will never get a real good horse."


    "Oh! Really? When these wounded horses are broken one by one in the future, brother Mo must inform Wang that Wang will come to the door for a memorial ceremony and ask brother Mo for his talent of bole." Wang Zhe sneered.


    "I''m afraid Mr. Wang will never wait for that day. Since Mr. Wang thinks Mo has a false name, Mo has an article here and wants to ask Mr. Wang for advice." a strange smile appeared at the corner of Merton''s mouth.


    "There is Bole in the world, and then there is Qianli horse. Qianli horse often exists, but Bole does not often exist. Therefore, although the famous horse is only humiliated by the hands of slaves, it is not called Qianli.


    Those who eat a thousand miles of a horse may eat a grain or a stone. Those who eat a horse don''t know its ability to eat a thousand miles. It''s a horse. Although it has the ability of a thousand miles, it''s beautiful because it doesn''t have enough food and strength. If you want to be with a regular horse, you can''t get it. Ask for its ability to travel a thousand miles?


    The policy is not based on its way, the food can''t make the best of its materials, the sound can''t pass its meaning, and the policy comes, saying, "there is no horse in the world!" Alas! There is really no horse evil? It really doesn''t know the horse! "


    Merton''s voice is like Huang Zhong Da Lu, telling the supreme horse Sutra in the horse walk in the west market.


    "You..." Wang Zhe was suddenly struck by lightning. He was also born in an aristocratic family. Although he did not develop in the imperial examination, his literary foundation was also very deep. Of course, he could distinguish the good and bad of this article.


    Therefore, although the famous horse is only humiliated by the hands of slaves, isn''t that ironic? He wants Xu Jie to be a slave in the house and connives at shopkeeper Wang to humiliate him. Although he talks about the horse, in fact, he appreciates Xu Jie''s thousand mile horse all over. He is depressed and frustrated, and his Mohist son has become bole, and his Wang Zhe has become a blind horse music watching the thousand mile horse.


    Before, Wang Yushi''s master was defeated by Merton many times. He also felt that they were very weak. However, when he faced the Mohist school, he knew how the other party''s action was unrestrained. First, 500 injured horses that were incomprehensible to everyone. If they didn''t agree with each other, they became popular for thousands of years.


    One Xu Jie and five hundred injured horses are nothing compared with those that have been circulating for thousands of years. Is such an article used to deal with him a bit like a cannon hitting mosquitoes? It''s too bullying.


    Xu Jie only felt trembling all over. Suddenly, he felt that a scholar died for his confidant. He didn''t expect Merton to correct his name with such an article that has been handed down for thousands of years.


    Most people in Xishi can do business here. They are literate. Of course, they can hear the quality of this article. Even many learned people immediately find paper and pen, write it down, and praise it again and again.


    "MOH family, worthy of MOH family!"


    Looking at the proud young man in front of them, they couldn''t help sighing that they would never understand the world of genius.


    With more than 500 injured horses crossing Chang''an City, "Ma Shuo" blew through Chang''an city like a whirlwind, and people were overwhelmed everywhere.

 Chapter 157

    In this era of the Tang Dynasty, horses were no less than cars of later generations. At once, 500 injured horses swam across Chang''an City and entered the ink mansion, just like a huge stone thrown into a pond, which immediately aroused layer after layer of waves.


    In Chang''an City, there was a lot of discussion about whether the Mohists understood the horse debate or not.


    "If I say that the MOH family must have got the true biography of Bole''s book of horses, otherwise how can I write such a masterpiece as Ma Shuo!" someone supported Merton.


    "It''s impossible," Ma Shuo "is obviously a metaphor for horses. It''s not the art of looking at horses at all. If Mohist Zi got the horse Sutra, how could he buy so many injured horses." some people don''t believe that Merton knows horses.


    Since ancient times, there has been a topic only when there is controversy. The peerless article "on horses" and 500 injured horses have formed a great contrast, which immediately ignited the topic of Chang''an city.


    In the legislative Palace


    Li Shimin listened to pound''s report without words. He couldn''t help but have a toothache and said, "this little catfish will never stop if it doesn''t make a storm all over Chang''an!"


    The sensation caused by 500 injured horses and the peerless article "Ma Shuo" was an uproar, which naturally attracted the attention of the imperial palace. Since Merton made a hot-air balloon across Chang''an City, Li Shimin has ordered that if Merton is making a big event, Li Shimin must pick up the copied Gonggong''s whole article, read it carefully, and sneered: "A thousand mile horse often exists, but Bole doesn''t. Merton, a small catfish, doesn''t think he is a thousand mile horse and is complaining about his grievances?"


    "If he were a thousand mile horse, emperor, wouldn''t you be Bole?" empress Chang sun looked at Li Shimin and complimented without leaving a trace.


    "Ha ha!" Li Shimin was very happy. Indeed, since Merton came into his sight, although the boy was out of tune and made the city stormy every time, he didn''t help Merton wipe his ass. otherwise, as a child of the Mohist school, he would have been black and blue injured by many open guns and hidden arrows.


    But Merton didn''t waste Li Shimin''s eyes. He surprised Li Shimin many times.


    "This time..." Li Shimin thought about the 500 injured horses. He couldn''t help but feel hot. He was most sad about the injured horses, but he had to count Li Shimin.


    When Tang soldiers went on an expedition to Turks, the biggest loss was the war horse. After returning from a long-distance attack, Tang''s war horse almost lost half. If Merton could solve the problem of hurting the horse, I''m afraid it would bring great benefits to Tang!


    Thinking of this, Li Shimin immediately ordered: "pay close attention to Merton and see what tricks he is doing?"


    "Yes!" pound took orders.


    Not only Li Shimin, but almost everyone in Chang''an city is looking forward to Merton''s news, especially the horse travel in Xi''an city. The problem of hurting horses has always been the biggest headache for the horse travel. If the Mohist school can really solve it, what benefits will it be.


    Wang Ma Xing!


    For Wang Zhe, it''s really a headache. He especially hopes that the Mo family is bluffing. After these injured horses die one by one, he will completely ruin Merton''s reputation. However, he also hopes to solve the problem of injured horses and solve a big hidden worry for the Wang family horse shop.


    After Merton left, Wang Zhe immediately called the green man who sold the injured horse.


    "Young master, this is the contract signed by Mojia Zi!" the man in green handed over the contract of Merton''s horse purchase with trepidation.


    "Four through money for one!" Wang Zhe looked at such a low price and couldn''t help feeling heartache. If mojiazi really cured these injured horses, Wang''s horse shop would be the biggest laughing stock in Chang''an city.


    Mo mansion was very big! But five hundred wounded horses entered and immediately filled it up.


    "Young master, is this?" Fubo was stunned when he looked at the five hundred wounded horses.


    "This is the horse of our Mojia village in the future." Merton looked at the horses in the yard and said with pride.


    "Ah!" faberton was stunned.


    The Murdoch family looked at the nervous young master silently. The injured horses in the yard were unreliable. Although they were temporarily suspicious out of their blind worship of Merton.


    Seeing Fubo''s asking eyes, Xu Jie smiled bitterly and felt uneasy. This was his first business in Mojia village, so he couldn''t lose.


    "Young master, here comes Mo Wu!" Mo Er, who was most active, jumped into the Mo mansion and shouted.


    "Mo Wu?"


    Xu Jie looked at Mo Wu, who was still wearing the clothes of Mo hospital, and his heart was slightly stable. Is it that the owner wants to treat these horses by means of doctors.


    "Young master!" Mo Wu panted and ran to Merton''s side.


    "Where''s Hua Lao? Didn''t I ask Hua Lao to come over?" Merton looked at the absence of Hua Lao behind, and couldn''t help asking.


    Mo Wu said with a wry smile, "as soon as master Hua heard that it was a medical horse, he sent me here. There are a lot of patients waiting for treatment in Mo hospital. Master Hua has no time to help treat horses."


    "It''s his loss if he doesn''t come. After I cure these injured horses, I''ll let Hua Lao come by himself!" Merton said confidently.


    Mo Wu also smiles bitterly. One is a tutor and the other is a young master. It''s inappropriate for him to stand on either side!


    "Young master, I''ve brought everything you want." Mo Wu quickly took out a small jar of alcohol and a large jar of golden sore medicine to change the topic.


    Hua Lao''s golden sore medicine is well-known. It''s very effective in stopping bleeding and scarring. Merton will come so many at once. No wonder Hua Lao doesn''t give Merton a good face.


    "Young master! Even if the Chinese old gold sore medicine is effective, it can''t cure these injured horses'' feet!" Mo Wu looked at the shocking wounds on the horses'' hoofs and persuaded him.


    "Don''t worry, the young master can buy so many injured horses. Naturally, he is sure to cure them!" Merton said mysteriously.


    Just then, Mo Si, who was full of muscles, ran over. A large bundle of iron wire and sheet iron were in his hand as light as nothing.


    "Young master, I''ve brought everything you want!" Mo Si put down the iron goods in his hand and said in a loud voice.


    Right now,


    "Young master, what you want!" the purple clothes, who covered his nose and looked disgusted, ran from the house, put down a large group of needles and thread, and ran out quickly to breathe.


    "Ah!"


    The crowd exclaimed! If people can understand the golden sore medicine, but people can''t understand the iron wire, iron sheet, needle and thread. No one can understand how to use these things to heal horses.


    "The most important injury to a horse is a crack. Since it is cracked, it''s good to sew it!" Merton said as if his clothes were broken and it was easy to sew it again.

 Chapter 158

    "Ah!"


    The crowd exclaimed! If people can understand the golden sore medicine, but people can''t understand the iron wire, iron sheet, needle and thread. No one can understand how to use these things to heal horses.


    "The most important injury to a horse is a crack. Since it is cracked, it''s good to sew it!" Merton said as if his clothes were broken and it was easy to sew it again.


    "Sew?"


    Everyone looked at each other and didn''t understand what it meant.


    Merton smiled and didn''t explain. He just asked Mo Si to prepare something for him.


    "Dangdang!"


    Mo Si is worthy of being a muscular young man with great strength. What is most needed as a member of the Mohist village is craftsmanship. A small piece of iron sheet in Mo Si''s hand turns into an oval iron sheet the size of a thumb nail.


    "Look, young master." Mo Si handed the prepared iron sheet to Merton.


    Merton took a look, pinched it with his hand, the hardness was suitable, nodded and said, "yes, punch two holes in each of these iron sheets."


    The iron sheet was very thin. Mo Si put it on the wood and punched it twice with an artifact similar to an awl. After getting Merton''s confirmation, he quickly punched two holes in each of the other iron sheets.


    After finishing this, Merton ordered Mo Er to bring the Jue shadow.


    The main reason why jueying was first treated was that jueying''s injury was the most serious. I''m afraid it would be too late if it was not treated. Otherwise, the Wang family''s horse shop would not let jueying fall into the injured horse circle and let it live and die.


    The limping shadow was brought over. Even if it was as thin as a wood, the skeleton of the shadow was much higher than that of other horses,


    "What a pity!"


    Fuber sighed. He also heard about the vanishing shadow. It''s a pity that a galloping horse should have fallen because of accidental injury.


    "Herod!" the Jue Ying gave a loud voice, full of sadness.


    "Don''t worry, I''ll try my best to heal you!" Merton reached out and touched Jue Ying''s head and said softly.


    Ma Tong was human. Jue Ying, aware of Merton''s kindness, whispered and rubbed his head in Merton''s palm.


    Merton looked down at the Jue Ying''s wound and looked at the cracks in the red teeth. Many places had been infected. Fortunately, the weather had just warmed up and there was no mosquito and fly abuse. The situation was not too serious.


    A black cloth wrapped Jue Ying''s horse body, and slowly lifted Jue Ying''s horse body under the power of a huge pulley block. In an instant, several strong men from Mojia village came forward to control Jue Ying''s four horse legs.


    Alcohol is the most irritating to the wound, but it is indeed a good disinfection method that Merton can think of in this era. To control the horse legs in order to avoid hurting people when disinfecting the jueying shadow,


    "Young master, I''ll come!" Mo Wu came forward.


    Since he defeated xuansi to diagnose his pulse at the gate of Mo hospital, Mo Wu has officially become a doctor. He usually treats people a lot, but this is the first time for a doctor.


    It seems to know that Merton is its Savior. Jueying still doesn''t have much struggle even when cleaning the laceration with alcohol.


    With Jue Ying''s cooperation, Mo Wu soon cleaned the cracks on Jue Ying''s two horseshoes one by one. However, when Mo Wu was ready to apply golden sore medicine step by step, he was stopped by Merton.


    In Mo Wu''s puzzled eyes, Merton himself picked up a sharp awl and easily drilled two small holes in the cuticle on both sides of the horse''s hoof crack, all the way to the crack.


    Then cut the iron wire into a bundle, bend it from the middle, pick up an iron sheet, pass through two small holes, and then pass the iron wire through the fine holes drilled in the cuticle on the side of Merton''s Horseshoe. If you cook it like this, put iron wire on the other side.


    Then Merton tightened the iron wires stretched out on both sides one by one, and then cut off the long iron wire. The wound of the whole horseshoe was immediately fixed.


    This is the way Merton saw his grandfather deal with the laceration of his horse when he was a child in his previous life. The iron sheet is to increase the stress area and increase the stress as much as possible, so as to prevent the iron wire from cutting the cuticle.


    "In this way, the horse will not continue to tear the wound even if it walks!" Merton explained to the people why he did so.


    "Oh!"


    Suddenly, they had more confidence that Merton could cure the injured horse.


    The next scene is to let everyone in Mojia village know what Merton said about sewing.


    Merton picked up the needle and thread that had been boiled and disinfected, directly sewed the two horseshoe lacerations of jueying shadow with needle and thread, and then applied the golden sore medicine.


    Then, Merton did the same for the other injured hoof of Jue Ying.


    "Well, it''s done!" said Merton, wiping a sweat.


    "That''s all right?" Xu Jie wondered.


    "Sure!" Mo Wu looked at the stitched wound and said excitedly. Merton''s stitching was very ugly, but Mo Wu seemed to see the most exquisite masterpiece. The most difficult thing to deal with the wound was the crack. As long as the wound was large, a little action would cause the crack of the wound.


    The suture method directly sutures the wound firmly with thread. Even with force, it can also ensure that the wound is unimpeded. Moreover, the wound is closed, which avoids the probability of infection and suppuration. I''m afraid the probability of cure will be greatly increased.


    Sure enough, the pulley block slowly put down Jue Ying, and the four hoofs fell to the ground. Under the reinforcement of iron and steel wires, the stitched wound was almost free of force. Sure enough, Jue Ying did not adapt to it. After taking a few steps, the wound on the horse''s hoof didn''t jump open.


    "It''s cured?" fuber and others can''t believe it now. Merton''s method is unheard of!


    "That''s the only way. The rest depends on its fate. If his wound does not continue to deteriorate, there is hope of recovery."


    "Hahaha, that''s enough!" Xu Jie laughed. He set his eyes on the remaining 500 injured horses. If more than 500 injured horses could be cured, what a fortune it would be!


    Before that, he had always heard about the legendary version of the Mohist family, but he didn''t expect to see Merton''s ability to turn corruption into magic within a few days after joining the Mohist family. When everything happened under his eyes, it was like a dream.


    Mo Wu was even more excited. Now he finally knew that it would be his regret for the young master to say that Hua Lao didn''t come. The wound was sewn legally. It was like finding a thoroughfare for doctors'' surgery.


    He believed that if Hua Lao learned about today''s situation, he would probably put off all his work and witness this moment at the first time.


    Merton made a demonstration. All the remaining 500 injured horses were handed over to Mowu and a group of people in Mojia village,


    For three days, more than 500 injured horses in Mojia village were finally stitched up.

 Chapter 159

    Mo mansion is full of horses now. It''s not just that 500 horses eat, drink and Lazar are crowded together. The forage consumed every day is an astronomical number, which makes uncle, who is used to frugality, distressed. Fortunately, with Xu Jie''s control, everything is going on in an orderly manner.


    In addition, the Mohist house is also overcrowded. Just taking care of the children of the Mohist village who hurt the horse needs more than 20.


    Hua Lao finally broke his promise. On the second day after Mo Wu returned to Mo hospital, hearing that the wound was sewn legally, Hua Lao couldn''t wait to put down everything in his hand and came to Mo Fu.


    "I didn''t expect it to be so simple! There''s no danger of crack on the wound suture!" old Hua couldn''t help himself excitedly. Old Hua''s medical skill is mainly surgery. He has seen too many injuries, because the wound breaks open many times and the wound relapses again and again. With the suture method, old Hua can guarantee that, As long as there is no fatal injury, even if the long wound is stitched, as long as it is delivered in time, he is sure to cure it.


    "Smelly boy! It''s outrageous to have such a good method without saying it in advance. Such a wonderful attention should be used to cure horses!" Hua Yuan looked at Merton and said angrily.


    "What is an outrageous thing? Brother Hua, the young master used this method to buy more than 500 horses for Mojia village. If he had said earlier, there would be no such good thing!" fuber explained for Merton. The frugal old man didn''t look at a pair of distressed horses and spent money. In fact, he had already spent so much money. Where can he find such a good thing!


    Hua Lao and Fu Bo have been good friends for many years, and they have no scruples when talking.


    Old Hua also choked for a while. He was in a trance when he saw more than 500 horses. He was also an old man in Mojia village. It would be good for Mojia village to have dinner in the past. Where did he think that Mojia village could have so many horses.


    "How can a man be compared with a horse? If I had said it earlier, I might have saved many people''s lives!" old Hua said forcefully.


    "Yes, yes, next time you have a good idea, you must tell old Hua in advance!" Merton said with a soft heart. "By the way, boy, this is a good idea."


    "Seriously?" Hua Yuan doubted. As soon as he said, the boy connected it. It won''t be fooling him!


    "Of course, Mr. Hua, if you think about it, some patients are in an emergency and are not easy to move. If you rescue them earlier, you may have hope. After these horses are ready in the future, how about selecting 20 horses and matching them with carriages as emergency vehicles in Mo hospital?"


    "Ambulance?" Hua Yuan''s eyes lit up.


    "This ambulance is usually equipped with common first-aid tools and medical kit. Once someone notifies someone with an emergency and can''t get to Mo hospital, take the doctor and rush to the patient for timely rescue." Merton explained all the precautions of the ambulance to China one by one.


    "Ambulance, good, it''s really a good idea!" Sun Simiao''s pleased voice sounded behind Merton.


    "Sun Lao!"


    "Doctor sun!"


    "Brother sun!"


    They hurried forward to say hello.


    "Why is brother sun here?" Hua Yuan hurried forward to greet him.


    "Merton has created a new method of wound suture, which is a unique method for treating trauma. How can I sit still? I didn''t expect to have an unexpected joy today!" Sun Simiao looked at Merton with appreciation.


    Sun Simiao felt that staying in Chang''an city was indeed a correct choice. The previous women''s medical school did not say for the time being. It was not long before there was a new method of wound suture, coupled with the eye-catching ideas such as emergency vehicles. If he was still far away in Wutai Mountain, he didn''t know that the good prescription could only be known in the years of monkeys and horses.


    "Brother sun came to help, and the law of wound suture can be completely improved." Hua Yuan said happily.


    There are two miraculous doctors here. Merton had to give way to Xian obediently. The ink house was soon entrusted by the ink hospital.


    "All injured horses are divided into three grades. The smallest wound is marked with green ribbon, the larger wound is marked with yellow ribbon, and the larger and festering wound is tied with red ribbon. Each ribbon is numbered!"


    Under the command of Hua Yuan, the whole Mohist mansion directly became a test site to verify the wound suture. Five hundred wounded horses were the test. However, compared with later generations of mice, these test articles are a little too big.


    Mr. Hua and Mr. Sun personally went to battle, personally observed the healing of each horse''s wound, and personally recorded it.


    "Yellow belt No. 15 horse is restless. Pay attention to observation!"


    "Red belt, wound No. 59 has ulceration. The rotten meat needs to be removed and sutured again!"


    "Red belt, No. 68, the wound is festering and needs diversion."


    "Red belt, No. 96, no longer works. There is no need to use medicine!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­


    A total of 500 injured horses almost showed the possible problems of wound suture. Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao were both contemporary Xinglin experts. They could be said to be the representatives of the highest medicine in the Tang Dynasty, and soon came up with corresponding strategies.


    All kinds of medicinal materials were tested on horses without money. After seventeen injured horses failed to be cured, all the injured horses were finally stable, and even some of the injured horses with minor lacerations could be declared cured.


    More than 500 injured horses, 17 died after ineffective treatment, and 492 horses were saved at once, including the most precious famous horse jueying.


    "Hoo!"


    Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao looked at the experimental records on their hands with satisfaction. After this experiment, the wound suture method has been completely completed in theory, and the rest is waiting to be applied to real patients.


    This is the Mohist experimental method, which was applied to doctors for the first time outside the farmhouse.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "The method of wound suture!" Li Shimin suddenly got up and listened to pound''s report in surprise!


    "Your Majesty, Lord Mo has personally demonstrated how to sew the wounded horse. Then, doctor Hua and doctor sun came to test the method of healing the wound with 500 wounded horses, which took nine days to complete!" pound briefly described the story.


    "You mean, this wound suture method can also be applied to people!" Li Shimin asked tremblingly.


    "This should be possible. After all, more than 500 injured horses have lost 17 heads. Since horses can be cured, it should be possible to use them for people! Otherwise, the two miracle doctors would not be so solemn!" pound said.


    It can let Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao focus on this for ten days, regardless of Mo hospital and women''s medical school. It can be imagined that there is no second explanation for the importance of wound suture, except that it can be applied to people.


    "Good! Good!"


    Li Shimin was overjoyed. He originally wanted to solve the damage of the war horse. Where did he think that Merton not only solved the problem of the war horse, but also gave him another surprise.


    During the Tang Dynasty''s expedition to Turks, it was not the damaged war horses that hurt him most. After all, after defeating Turks, the captured horses had lost enough. What really hurt him was that most of the wounded soldiers were wounded by knives and arrows. Once injured, the wounds were very difficult to heal, and often none of the wounded soldiers existed.


    With this method of suturing the wound, plus the fact that more than 500 injured horses only lost 17 horses, how can Li Shimin not be very excited.


    "Merton is really capable of tossing around! He is worthy of being my catfish, no! He is my thousand mile horse." Li Shimin, who is self styled bole, laughed.

 Chapter 160

    "This is the method of wound suture!"


    Qin Huaiyu curiously gathered at the foot of Jue Ying and looked at Merton''s ugly suture. There was such a lively thing in the ink house. Of course, Qin Huaiyu and his three people were indispensable. As soon as they had free time, they were immersed in the ink house.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin also surround Jue Ying with excited faces and are amazed.


    "Herod?"


    When strangers approached, they immediately caused the uneasiness of Jue Ying, and immediately shouted a high warning.


    Since the wound was sutured and Merton spared no effort to mend, jueying shadow immediately recovered some of its former style. It looked obviously good. Its former arrogance was picked up again. Now, except Merton and the groom who specially served jueying shadow, it is not close at all.


    "How can it be so fast! But the wound has been sutured, at least it will not continue to deteriorate. Whether it can recover depends on its own nature."


    Merton looked down at Jue Ying''s wound and found that the wound did not fester. It had developed in a good way. He nodded with satisfaction. After all, it is a large animal with high resistance.


    And Jue Ying is the most potential among these injured horses. Once the injury is cured, it is valuable.


    "The Mohist village is also developed this time!" Chumo looks at the horses in the Mohist house excitedly and says with envy.


    Among these injured horses, not all are ordinary nags, and even many are good horses of high value. Unfortunately, once injured, it''s almost as useless, but it''s cheaper for Merton.


    Merton shook his head and said, "some injured horses have been injured for too long. Even if the leg injury is cured, I''m afraid it''s difficult to have great strength in the future."


    "Even if you can recover half, the Mojia village will make a lot of money!" even Wei Chi Baolin looked at the horses in the Mojia house with a surprised look on his face.


    Many recovering horses leisurely passed by the living room under the traction of the groom. From time to time, they sneezed and made a loud cry or two. They were no longer dead in the injured horse circle.


    "It''s a great bargain for you. Before the Jue Ying was hurt, we saw what a divine horse it was. I didn''t expect you to buy it for four times. Wang Zhe usually thinks he is a famous family with five surnames and is very arrogant. Who would have thought he had such a big loss in your hand?" Qin Huaiyu laughed.


    Qin Huaiyu never doubted whether Merton could cure these wounded horses all the time. They saw the most about Merton''s magical means.


    Merton raised his eyebrows and said, "why, you know this man!"


    "I don''t know. Chang''an city is big and small. There are only a few fixed circles. This guy usually looks arrogant and likes to be with those sour guys. He just acts as a big head of injustice!" Qin Huaiyu said.


    Merton immediately realized that he was not with Qin Huaiyu. No wonder he said that Wang Zhe looked unhappy. As for what Qin Huaiyu said about being the head of injustice, I''m afraid it''s just the communication means of the Taiyuan Wang family in Chang''an city.


    "But be careful, Morton. Wang Zhe usually looks like a graceful gentleman. In fact, he is very insidious. He must report his evil deeds, but be careful that the boy uses evil moves behind his back." Chumo solemnly warned.


    In these small circles, the grapevine news is the most well-informed, and there is no doubt who is a man at ordinary times.


    Merton nodded clearly. Xu Jie''s lesson was right in front of him. Of course, he wouldn''t think Wang Zhe was a gentleman.


    "If he is fair and aboveboard, Mojia village is never afraid. If he uses Yin moves behind his back, Hei hei, I will let him know that this is Chang''an, not Taiyuan." Merton snorted coldly.


    With the development of Mojia village, it is no longer difficult for a small city gate official to settle down. Moreover, the system of Mojia village is self-contained and is not afraid of external challenges.


    "Yes, if he dares to use the Yin move, it depends on whether our brother agrees!" Qin Huaiyu snorted coldly. Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily. The four had stood together in the Imperial College and had a friendship with the board. Naturally, they shared a common hatred.


    "Bang bang!"


    A loud knock came from the gate of Mo mansion. It was said that the comer was not good.


    "How dare you come to the door to make trouble? I think it''s so bold?" Qin Huaiyu got up angrily.


    "No! No!" Merton stopped the three quickly.


    "What''s going on?" the mountain man wondered.


    Merton said with a dry smile, "they are all neighbors. It''s not easy to be stiff!"


    In their doubts, fuber opened the middle door and whispered to the people outside the door. After a long time, he sent them away.


    "Young master, this is the third house to come to the door and complain that our horse is disturbing the people!" fuber went to Merton and said with a bitter smile.


    The three suddenly realized that no wonder Merton looked embarrassed. It turned out that it was the people of the Duke''s house around him. More than 500 horses poured into the house. These horses kept shouting, not to mention the neighbors around. Even the people in the house were all black eyes.


    Fortunately, these neighbors usually receive little favors from the Mexican government. Even if they go to the Mexican hospital, they can go through the back door of the Mexican government and get the personal diagnosis and treatment of old Hua. In addition, Fubo said all his good words, so they didn''t get angry on the spot.


    "Ha ha ha!"


    After the three learned the reason, they laughed with glee. Who would have thought that Merton was found because of the sound of horses.


    Merton also had a headache looking at the horses in the yard. It''s really not a thing for so many horses to rush in. Moreover, there is a special person to transport so many horses to the outside every day. The whole ink house has a taste.


    "The horse has almost recovered from the injury of tying the green ribbon. Now transfer it to Mojia village!" Merton thought and said.


    Fubo thought and nodded. That''s all he could do, but after all the horses were moved away, the ink house must be cleaned severely, otherwise no one would like to go to the door of the ink house.


    The gate of Mo mansion, open it!


    Excited, Mo Si took the lead, directly rode a wounded horse with the best recovery, and nearly 100 horses poured out behind him. He was very vigorous!


    "Go! Go back to Mojia village!" Mo Si was in high spirits. The whip pointed to the south gate and said loudly.


    When nearly 100 recovered injured horses in Mojia village crossed Chang''an city again, the whole Chang''an city was boiling again.


    "I really cured the injured horse!" the man I saw grew up in surprise!


    It was only more than ten days since Merton''s last 500 wounded horses crossed Chang''an city. When the singing of "Ma Shuo" reached the peak, Merton once again shocked Chang''an city with his magical means.


    At this point, the debate over whether Mohist Zi understood Ma was officially over, and Mohist Zi still had a golden body.

 Chapter 161

    "Mojia village sent a message!"


    On the streets of Chang''an, people on both sides looked at nearly a hundred horses passing by, and a strong envy arose spontaneously.


    "Four through money!"


    The price of Merton''s injured horses in the west market has already spread all over Chang''an city with the story of horses. More than 500 injured horses cost only 2000 yuan.


    Now only ten days have passed, and even the hundreds of healed horses in front of us are more than 2000 yuan! Moreover, there are nearly 400 horses in the Mo mansion. Even if you pay 20000 yuan, the Mo family will not sell these horses to you!


    In ten days, it changed from 2000 yuan to 20000 yuan. The Mohist''s method of turning waste into gold and turning waste into treasure once again detonated the public''s reputation. Now everywhere Chang''an city goes, there is a lot of discussion. At the same time, it is inevitable to talk about the method of treating injured horses and the method of wound suture. "Bring the documents." Wang Zhe raised his eyebrows.


    The trading documents were quickly handed over. Wang Zhe took them over and looked at them. He couldn''t help getting angry from his heart. It turned out that when the Wang family firm was selling injured horses, for fear that Merton would renege, it directly made the agreement a dead agreement, and there was no chance to do anything at all.


    "Demote the horse salesman to shovel horse dung for me! Can''t mojiazi see anything strange when he buys so many injured horses all at once?" Wang Zhe said angrily.


    "Yes, young master!" shopkeeper Wang certainly won''t risk offending the angry Wang Zhe because of a man, although the man''s original intention is to get rid of all the wounded horses of the Wang family firm.


    People are eager to get rich overnight and like to listen to legendary stories. When Merton used only 2000 passes in just ten days to get nearly 500 horses with no less than 20000 passes, which has increased tenfold. It''s not too much to say that turning stone into gold.


    "Mohist is still that Mohist!"


    Everywhere we went, people talked with relish, some sighed, some envied, and Wang Zhe''s unforgettable hatred.


    In the face of interests, all living beings are undoubtedly exposed.

 Chapter 162

    Five days later, more than 200 injured horses tied with yellow ribbons recovered. In addition, 300 injured horses recovered well with red ribbons were sent back to Mojia village. Only more than 80 horses, including jueying, were left in the whole Mofu, and the most seriously injured horses were undergoing final treatment.


    Four hundred horses were lost at once, and the Mojia village was much cleaner. In addition, Fu Bo washed the Mojia house up and down with water for three times, and the smell shrouded in the Mojia house dissipated.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton took a heavy breath of fresh air. The smell of the horse almost killed him these days! Even if the neighbors don''t complain, even he can''t stand it.


    "Wash the front door again and don''t leave any smell." Merton checked it carefully and told him uneasily.


    "Yes, young master!" Fu Bo replied and immediately commanded several Mohist villagers to repeat the cleaning again.


    After Merton''s orders, he came to Ma Ji slowly.


    "Herod!"


    As soon as Merton arrived at Ma Ji, Jue Ying screamed excitedly and his hooves kept beating.


    After Merton spared no effort to mend, and the injury on the horse''s hoof has almost healed, the original thin shadow has recovered the former god horse, the originally thin horse body has gradually gained muscle, and the yellow hair color has gradually become shiny.


    There are still more than 80 injured horses in the horse Ji Li, all of which follow the lead of the vanishing shadow horse, and the former horse king has regained some style.


    "OK, don''t worry!" Merton reached out and touched the horse''s head of Jue Ying to appease him who couldn''t wait! "


    Jueying intimately rubbed his head on Merton''s hand. Merton has been conducting the recovery training of jueying these days, and they have a full tacit understanding.


    "Add another half of forage and water!" Merton ordered. Later, Merton will carry out restorative training for jueying shadow. He can''t eat too much.


    "Yes, young master!" a man of Mojia village who took care of the injured horse said. He took a pile of grass from the cart behind him, put it in the manger of jueying shadow, and added two scoops of water.


    Jue Ying gave a cheerful cry, lowered his head and chewed, and sneezed from time to time.


    There are many horses in Chang''an city. There are many places that specialize in planting forage for horses. Merton paid a lot of money for these injured horses and supplied superior forage.


    Soon, Jue Ying had enough to eat and drink. Merton came forward to untie the cable and led it out.


    Tie an came forward to help put on the saddle. The last shadow who hasn''t put on the saddle for a long time doesn''t adapt very well. He is restless with the constraints on his back!


    "Whoa!"


    Merton gave a sigh of relief.


    The restless shadow calmed down slowly. After all, it was a good horse that had been trained and soon adapted to the saddle on its back.


    Merton led Jue Ying around the open space monopolized by the back yard of Mo mansion. In the middle of the open space, there are many crossbars monopolized to train these injured horses. After all, some injured horses are too seriously injured, even the laceration is good. Sometimes, the four hoofs are also seriously damaged.


    After three rounds of walking, jueying was impatient, so he walked slowly and kicked his four hoofs from time to time!


    Merton smiled. Seeing that the time was ripe, he looked at the horse rope, stepped on the stirrup and jumped on the back of Jue Ying.


    "Drive!" Murton said softly! Jue Ying immediately trotted along the open space, with an abnormal figure.


    After trotting for two laps, Merton drove Jue Ying to a crossbar. After a short run-up, Jue Ying jumped over the crossbar in a beautiful posture.


    "Good! Young master is mighty!" iron Ann flattered and shouted.


    Merton smiled proudly. Unexpectedly, joy begets sorrow. When the Jue Ying fell to the ground, it was obvious that he stumbled. Merton quickly hugged the Jue Ying horse''s neck to avoid a disaster.


    "Young master!" tie an was shocked and hurried to catch Jue Ying.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton came down from the shadow with lingering fear.


    Merton tied Jue Ying to the stake, lifted Jue Ying''s horse''s front hoofs, and found that it was not the injured two hoofs, but the uninjured front hoofs,


    "It''s worn out so badly that the horse must be abandoned!" Li Chengqian''s voice suddenly came from behind him.


    "Ah! Brother Gao Ming, why are you here?" Merton raised his head in surprise and looked at Li Chengqian who hadn''t appeared for a long time.


    Tie''an quickly saluted and said that the Mohist house had a tacit understanding. If Li Chengqian came, the courtesy should be sufficient, but it can''t break Li Chengqian''s identity.


    So far, only a limited number of people know Li Chengqian''s identity.


    "I heard that you made a fortune and came here to catch the autumn wind!" Li Chengqian joked.


    "Really? Choose whichever you like and give it to you!" Merton said brightly.


    As Li Chengqian, I haven''t seen any good horses. Of course, Merton won''t take it seriously. They laughed and joked, and suddenly the estrangement that had not been seen for a long time was alleviated.


    "What a handsome horse! What a pity!" Li Chengqian said with regret, looking at the vanishing shadow of Shenjun. He once had a good horse and loved it very much. It was also because the four hoofs were worn too much and finally abandoned.


    Jueying is not only torn horseshoes, but also badly worn front hooves. There is no problem walking. When I crossed the crossbar just now, I was obviously scratched by a hard block on the ground.


    But it''s not just the Jue Ying that has this problem. These 500 injured horses have similar problems. After all, a horse''s injury is not caused twice at a time, but due to fatigue day after day.


    "What about that?" iron Ann exclaimed. Almost all of the remaining 80 horses have wear and tear problems. The most serious is that there is only a thin cuticle, which hurts as soon as the injured horse leaves.


    "Hey! There''s no way." Li Chengqian regretted. At that time, the Royal Horse supervisor in the palace thought of many methods, which were useless, unless he left these horses idle for a year or two and waited until his hooves grew.


    "Ah! Idle for a year or two?" tie an shook his head. The money and food spent on raising a horse is not a small number. Moreover, there are more than 80 horses at once. If he keeps them for a year or two, I''m afraid the gain is not worth the loss.


    "Young master, what should I do?" iron Ann frowned and asked.


    "Easy!" Merton blurted out.


    "Ah!" tie was stunned when he settled down.


    Li Chengqian looked at the calm Merton on his face in surprise and suddenly said, "you must have a way already, don''t you?"


    Merton smiled mysteriously and deliberately sold the key.


    "Speak quickly!" said Chengqian angrily. If Merton really had a way, his favorite horse could be used again.


    "In fact, this is very simple!" Merton deliberately adjusted Li Chengqian''s appetite.


    "Simple?" Li Chengqian didn''t believe Merton''s words. The secret technique of living fish was very simple, that is, injecting air into the water. As a result, many people in Chang''an city didn''t guess.


    The method of wound suture is also simple, but who can think of sewing the wound like sewing clothes. The wounded horse for thousands of years has been cheaper for Merton himself.


    Now Merton says it''s simple. Maybe it''s really simple, but it''s absolutely unexpected.


    "Since the horse''s hooves are worn, it''s OK to put shoes on the horse!" Merton waved his big hand. He thought of the great invention that had existed in the world, the Roman horseshoe.

 Chapter 163

    "What? Put shoes on the horse!" Li Chengqian exclaimed.


    "Nonsense, if you walk barefoot, do you panic? You know how to wear shoes, but you don''t know how to wear shoes for horses!" Merton rolled his eyes and said.


    "Er, ER!" Li Chengqian was speechless. The reason was this, but it was awkward to put shoes on the horse


    Li Chengqian never thought that Merton''s brain was so open. It was as simple as Merton said, but who could think of it. Besides, how could the horse run even if he put shoes on the horse.


    "Brother Gao Ming, please look!"


    Merton raised the horse''s hoof of Jue Ying and motioned Li Chengqian to observe it carefully.


    After watching for a long time, Li Chengqian smiled bitterly and shook his head. He only felt that the horse''s hoof was still a horse''s hoof. It seems that he still stayed in the realm of seeing the mountain as a mountain.


    Merton was helpless and pointed to the cuticle of the horse''s hoof and said: "The hoof armor of the horse''s hoof is a piece of dead skin, just like our fingernail cap. It has no pain, and this layer of hoof armor is the easiest to wear, so the way to avoid the wear of hoof armor is very simple. Put shoes on this layer of hoof armor. In this way, wear is shoes. If the shoes are worn out, just change another pair of shoes."


    "Oh!" Li Chengqian suddenly touched Jue Ying''s hoof armor curiously, and then looked at the hole that Merton had drilled with iron wire to treat Jue Ying''s laceration. It was indeed a dead skin.


    "But what kind of shoes can fit a horse''s hoof?" Li Chengqian felt that his brain hole was really not enough!


    "Young master, here comes what you want!"


    At this time, there was a loud noise outside the door. Zhang''s second son Zhang Yang panted and ran to Merton and handed over four semicircular strange iron products.


    "So fast?" Merton took it in surprise and couldn''t put it down. He rubbed along the arc of iron products, just like appreciating a beautiful work of art.


    Li Chengqian came up curiously, looked at the strange thing and asked, "is this what you call the horse''s shoes?"


    "It''s called a horseshoe! It''s also called a horseshoe!" Merton compared the horseshoe with the jueying hoof armor. It was just the right size and nodded with satisfaction.


    Li Chengqian picked up two horseshoes and looked at jueying''s horseshoes. He couldn''t understand how this thing was worn on the horseshoes.


    Zhang Yang brought over a knee high wooden stool, put jueying''s horseshoe on it, picked up a knife and carefully trimmed the hoof armor on the horseshoe.


    After pruning, pick up several long nails and nail the horseshoe on the horseshoe easily with the help of tie an.


    This was repeated three times. In less than a quarter of an hour, the four horseshoes of Jue Ying had been ordered.


    "That''s all right?" Li Chengqian looked at Jue Ying curiously, kicking his four hoofs, leaving a circle of nearly full moon on the ground.


    "Of course, in this way, if the horseshoe is severely worn, it can be replaced directly. These horseshoes are made of the best refined iron of Mohism. They are extremely hard and can withstand great strength without deformation. Moreover, the horseshoe also has the greatest advantage. It can help the horseshoe better grasp the ground and avoid slip errors as much as possible."


    "Good thing, what a good thing!" Li Chengqian immediately brightened his eyes and praised them.


    As Prince Li Chengqian, of course, knows the situation of the Tang Dynasty. Horses can pull cars, farm and travel. There is a great demand for folk horses. Having a cow in the countryside is a rich home, let alone a horse. In the folk, horses are a luxury ornament.


    The losses caused by excessive wear and tear of horses in Datang are countless every year. The light ones are injured and the heavy ones are directly scrapped.


    However, with horseshoes, each horse will be covered with a protective film, and all these problems will be solved. For the people of the Tang Dynasty, they can rest assured that they can use horses for a long time, which will be a great gospel.


    This is to say big, to say small, his favorite horse in the East Palace finally doesn''t have to be brought on the horse for a year and a half. As long as he changes the horseshoe, his favorite horse must become lively again.


    After a period of familiarity, jueying gradually got used to the things under his feet.


    "Drive!"


    Merton turned over and got on the horse, shouted, and the shadow trotted for a while. He crossed the crossbar again. This time, he was very relaxed and landed steadily, leaving only deep horseshoe marks under the soil.


    Merton drove Jue Ying to trot in Merton''s backyard for a while, then released Jue Ying''s bridle and let it run in the backyard of the ink house.


    "Herod!"


    Jue Ying has never run since she was injured. When she got this chance, she jumped and ran freely, and sang high from time to time. The once king of horses appeared again.


    Soon, with the publicity of skilled skills, all the remaining more than 80 horses were equipped with horseshoes.


    Watching Merton solve the problem of headache in China for thousands of years so easily, Li Chengqian looked like a monster, staring at Merton, and Merton was very upset.


    "I don''t know how long your head is? You can even do such a strange thing. I don''t know what else in the world can beat you?"


    Merton covered his head strangely and looked at Li Chengqian with a wary face.


    "Fuck off, who wants your head!" Li Chengqian scolded angrily. The former Prince''s self-restraint had already disappeared.


    "It''s no use if you want it. I didn''t think of this horseshoe. It has been in the world for 600 years." Merton shook his head regretfully and said a hot news.


    "It''s impossible?" Li Chengqian exclaimed. If he had lived for 600 years, how could he not know that Datang still hurt so many horses every year.


    Suddenly, Li Chengqian suddenly said, "it''s a foreigner''s thing?"


    Li Chengqian can know that the ancestors of Mohism had traveled to many foreign countries outside the Tang Dynasty and experienced many strange things.


    Merton nodded and said, "according to Mozi''s Secret works, in the west of the far western country, there is a boundless far western ocean, and there is an island country in the far western ocean. Such a song is popular in the upper class.


    One nail is missing, one horseshoe is missing,


    Lost a horseshoe, lost a war horse,


    Lost a war horse, lost a battle,


    He lost a battle and a country


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When Charles III was put on the guillotine, he never thought that he would lose a country just because of a small nail. "


    "Ah!" Li Chengqian opened his mouth in shock. He never thought that a horse nail should be equal to the state.


    "What did brother Gao Ming get from this story?" Merton asked.


    "A thousand miles of dike will collapse in an ant''s nest because of small losses," said Li Chengqian.


    "Wrong, everyone else''s horse has horseshoes, but none of ours." Merton said painfully.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Chengqian was stunned. The MOH family is the MOH family, and the brain circuit is different from him.

 Chapter 164

    "Horse! Horse! A horse loses the country!"


    Li Shimin looked at the front page headline of Ink magazine, silently recited Merton''s quotation of Shakespeare, and couldn''t help feeling very much!


    The horseshoe is like a layer of window paper. It will break when poked. Since the Mohist village has adopted the horseshoe, it will certainly spread. It''s better to make it public than the Mohist village itself.


    So in the latest issue of Ink magazine, Merton used the story of a horse losing the country to promote horseshoes.


    "A nail damages a horse and a horse loses the country. It''s really a thought-provoking story!" empress Chang sun also sighed. She is also a familiar reader of poetry and books. Of course, she knows the truth contained in it. piece


    "This little catfish can really toss around and make a blind show!"


    Li Shimin said angrily, but there was a trace of acid in his tone.


    A simple incident of injuring a horse was made twists and turns and ups and downs by Mohist Zi. First, 500 horses were injured, then combined with the "horse theory", and then there was the method of wound suture, which led to the injury experiment of doctors. Finally, a horseshoe was made and a horse lost the country.


    In the end, he took advantage of the advantage and let him out of the limelight.


    Empress Chang sun could not help chuckling. She knew her husband''s thoughts in detail. She knew that this was Li Shimin''s ostentatious complaint.


    "This little catfish tosses again, isn''t it your majesty who will finally benefit?" empress Chang sun stared at Merton coyly.


    Li Shimin smiled with complacency. If anyone has the most horses in the world, he has to count the royal family. There are not a few horses provided by the whole horse guard alone, let alone such a large army. Cavalry has always been the most expensive arms. What''s more, if they are trained hard, they will easily cause damage to war horses. There are many war horses injured in the army every year. With the horseshoe and wound suture method, this alone can save a lot of expenses every year. What''s more, a well-trained war horse can''t be compared with simple money and food.


    "He''s smart enough to publish such things that benefit the country and the people. I''ll let him go this time." Li Shimin said angrily. He couldn''t hide his smile from the corners of his mouth.


    Li Shimin knew about the horseshoe much earlier than the empress Chang sun. As soon as Li Chengqian came back from the Mo mansion, he immediately reported to Li Shimin the role of the horseshoe. After all, as a prince, he still had this political consciousness.


    Li Shimin has been paying no attention, just observing Merton. Fortunately, Merton did not disappoint him. He took the initiative to disclose the horseshoe, which benefited the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Merton is a good boy, you know how to bully him!" the eldest grandson empress couldn''t help but give Li Shimin a white look. What she thinks of Merton now is very pleasing and talented. She wrote such peerless masterpieces as Ma Shuo. She was kind-hearted and announced how many people the horseshoe has benefited. More importantly, he has a good relationship with Li Chengqian.


    "Guanyin maid, you don''t know. Jade doesn''t make a thing. Mo lie died early. No one in the Mojia village can control him. This boy is used to being wild. If he''s not strict, he can''t tell what''s going on." Li Shimin said that I was for his good appearance and didn''t mean to feel guilty at all.


    Empress Chang sun thought for a while. Merton is almost unattended now. It''s not a bad thing to be pressed by Li Shimin. So Merton''s sad fate was settled happily.


    "Come on, immediately promote Horseshoes in the army and try to adapt the horses in the shortest time." Li Shimin thought and immediately ordered.


    "Yes!" pound immediately took orders.


    With horseshoes, the war horses in the army are no longer worried. They used to cherish horsepower and dare not practice on a large scale. Since then, they have no such worries., Once the training is strengthened, the gap between the Datang cavalry and the nomadic cavalry will be further narrowed. In addition, the advantage of Datang''s armour will not be afraid to face any team player.


    After solving a major hidden danger in the army, Li Shimin can''t help feeling complacent. Li Shimin usually gives a big reward for such great credit.


    However, it was thought that mojiazi caught 500 injured horses at once. According to the information, his new shopkeeper also got a lot of injured horses in Luoyang. He made tens of thousands of passes in just a few days. Li Shimin also felt that his reward was really beyond his grasp.


    This kind of courtiers who reap benefits by themselves and do not rely on the reward of the emperor not only gratified Li Shimin, but also regretted that he always felt that he was missing something!


    If Merton knows, he will cry out for injustice. No matter how much, no matter how little, no matter how little, just come.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "A horse loses the country! It''s really thought-provoking!"


    "Who dares to say that Mozi doesn''t understand horses!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The horse injury incident, which caused a sensation in Chang''an City, came to an end after this ink publication.


    The Mohist school won all, and gained both fame and wealth.


    The people around eating melons yelled fun! I envy Merton for turning his hand over the clouds and covering his hand with rain. I didn''t expect to get benefits while making 500 horses in vain.


    It must be Chang''an city that owns horses on average. In addition to its own rich families and the coming and going carriages, it is estimated that they will choose to install horseshoes at the first time.


    "Bang bang!"


    Almost all of the iron shops in Chang''an city are full of business, and there is an endless stream of iron making.


    Rao is so. The supply still exceeds the demand. As long as the horseshoe is made, it will be sold out immediately.


    This time, Mojia village did not participate in the horseshoe business. After only building 500 horseshoes, Merton overcame the public opinion and gave up the business.


    In Merton''s view, Mojia village has received the greatest benefits. We can''t be too greedy. These time-consuming and laborious horseshoes have too short business cycle and high competitiveness. There is no need to make great efforts.


    Mojia village gave up this business, but it became a carnival for blacksmiths in Chang''an city. Almost every blacksmith shop made a lot of money. With the passage of time, the horseshoe feast gradually spread beyond Chang''an. From then on, Datang was no longer worried about hurting horses.


    Xi Shi Ma Hang!


    Shopkeeper Wang looked at Wang Zhe with a gloomy face.


    After the addition of Ink magazine, Merton was in the limelight and elated, while his Wang Zhe became a joke. While people envy the Mohist son for making tens of thousands of money, they are expected to ridicule the Wang horse shop.


    "Young master, do we need horseshoes on our horses?" shopkeeper Wang asked timidly.


    Horseshoes are very popular in Chang''an city these days. Almost all the horse shops in the west market horse shop have slapped horses. Due to the bad relationship between the Wang horse shop and mojiazi, the Wang horse shop did not slap horseshoes on horses. As a result, the business is very poor these days. Either they can''t sell or the people who buy horses try to keep the price down.


    "Fight! Why not? The horseshoe is not Mohist!" Wang Zhe said bitterly, biting his teeth. Although this move meant to be subdued, he didn''t want to lose the country like the protagonist in the story in Ink magazine.

 Chapter 165

    Ink magazine published a horse to lose the country, once again pushed Mozi to the people of the Tang Dynasty, which was an eye opener for both scholars and civilians.


    For a long time, people think that Datang is the center of the world, surrounded by barbarian areas. However, after reading Mozi''s secret book, they found that there is such a vast world outside Datang.


    The ancestors of Mohism have come to the front of everyone and took the lead in traveling to a wider field, which has led to the revival of Mohism for thousands of years.


    Merton threw all the pots to Mozi. Although he realized some lies, it also caused some people to think that Merton only made today''s achievements with the grace of his ancestors, and he didn''t have much talent.


    Wang Zhe and Chang sun Chong are the representatives.


    "The MOH family! It''s just relying on the legacy of their ancestors! It''s a small man''s ambition!"


    In the education department workshop, Chang sun Chong and Wang Zhe raised their glasses to drink, and kept defending Wang Zhe against injustice!


    One is the first noble childe of the dynasty, and the other is the direct line of the five famous families. They have known each other for a long time, and this time they both have the same enemy Merton, so they naturally get together.


    "Touch!" Wang Zhe put the wine glass heavily on the table, with an angry face.


    This time, I lost inexplicably when I fought with mojiazi. On the face of it, I didn''t suffer much loss. Although mojiazi bought a lot of injured horses, it came out that horseshoes are an artifact that is beneficial in the contemporary era and has made great achievements in the future. In the long run, Wang''s business bank has never suffered from hurting horses since then. It can be said that it has not suffered losses, but made a lot of money.


    But for Wang Zhe, his own prestige was greatly hit and he tasted the first failure in his life.


    "Mohism is just a group of broken settlers. He thought it was the time of Mohism in the pre-Qin period?" Wang Zhe sneered.


    Deposing a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone is not just talking about it. Confucianism is still the dominant school. Don''t look at the Mojia village. During this period of time, the wind and water have gone smoothly. In fact, it is because the actions of the Mojia have great benefits to the whole Tang Dynasty. Under this trend, the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism has been covered up.


    "Shh! Brother Wang, be careful! The MOH family is now in the holy favor, so you can''t talk nonsense!" the eldest sun reminded me like a kind heart, which actually added fuel to the fire.


    Wang Zhen was even more angry when he heard the speech. He snorted coldly, "elder brother Chang sun, why do you have to raise the prestige of others and destroy your ambition? A little Mohist can turn the sky!"


    The eldest sun Chong smiled bitterly and said, "brother Wang, I don''t know. The Mexican family acts very strangely. Every time when there is a desperate situation, they will always fight back with unimaginable and unheard of methods."


    Chang sun Chong was also distressed. He had two conflicts with Merton. That time, he thought he was sure, but they were resolved by Merton in an unheard of way, one is a new painting technique, and the other is more like a portrait artist''s technique.


    Chang sun Chong didn''t hide his conflict with Merton and explained his two failed experiences to Wang Zhe in detail.


    Wang Zhe nodded with deep understanding. The matter of hurting horses has existed since ancient times. Countless horse herders tried their best, but there was nothing they could do. But they played tricks in the hands of mojiazi. First, the wound suture method, and then the horseshoe was born, which directly and completely solved the problem of hurting horses. I don''t know what happened? Every time, the Mohists could turn the world around with one or two strange things they had never seen before.


    "Although the Mohist school has some small means, its business and Mohist skills are different. Before, the Mohist village made a small fuss, that''s OK. Since the Mohist school is ready to intervene in Chang''an business, it depends on whether my Wang family agrees or not!" Wang Zhe said proudly.


    The Wangs'' firm is an absolute overlord in Chang''an city. Coupled with the five famous families, it is easy to block a small Mojia village.


    Like Xu Caishen, such a great fame did not collapse and fall apart overnight.


    Maybe he can''t write poetry himself, but for business, Wang Zhe thinks he can''t lose to anyone. Since Mojia village wants to enter Chang''an business on a large scale, it must pass his Wang Zhe first.


    "Ban Mojia village?"


    Shopkeeper Wang was shocked and looked at the proud Wang Zhe with a look on his face. A trace of excitement flashed in his heart. He only felt that he had a chance to avenge himself!


    "Yes, the mojiazi solicited Xu Caishen just to develop the business of Mojia village. I want him to become the second Xu Caishen in Chang''an city!" Wang Zhe said proudly.


    "The young master is mighty! The Mohist is just a yellow haired boy. How can he defeat the young master? As long as the young master goes out, the Mohist village will surely collapse. Then the Mohist village will return to poverty again and let the Mohist kneel down in front of the young master to beg for mercy!" shopkeeper Wang flattered. Of course, he knows what Wang Zhe''s heart disease is and can make the Mohist bow his head, It will certainly make Wang Zhe''s face rise.


    When Wang Zhe heard shopkeeper Wang''s compliment, he smiled and said, "since Mohist Zi made his fortune with live fish, we''ll break his way first."


    When shopkeeper Wang heard the speech, his face suddenly stiffened and he couldn''t help flattering: "young master, the live fish business in Mojia village is sold by his own people. You can''t forbid the people to buy it!"


    "Then find a dentist to check it!" Wang Zhe frowned.


    "Young master, the Mojia village sells live fish. There''s no way for Yahang!" shopkeeper Wang said bitterly. He had already used this move. Unfortunately, Yahang ignored it. The Mojia village sells live fresh fish, and there''s no excuse at all.


    "By the way, young master, the best sellers in Mojia village are Quyuan plow, columbine, waterwheel and well killing. If we don''t start from this aspect!" shopkeeper Wang quickly changed the topic.


    "Fool, these are the roots of farming and mulberry. I don''t know how many people are staring at them. If you want to die, don''t hold me!" Wang Zhe angrily said.


    The Tang Dynasty is based on agriculture, and quyuanli water wheel well killing is a very important agricultural tool, which is related to the foundation of the country. If Wang Zhen really engages in means, I''m afraid even the Taiyuan Wang family can''t protect him. Although Wang Zhen is not in politics, as a child of an aristocratic family, he is still politically sensitive.


    "Young master, I misunderstood you! I mean, since these farm tools are so important, how can the Mojia village be the only one? If we find some craftsmen to copy them, we can share profits and contribute to the foundation of agricultural mulberry. I''m afraid your majesty knows and can''t say anything." shopkeeper Wang said proudly that we can only copy a large number of these farm tools, It will certainly cause great losses to Mojia village.


    Wang Zhe was delighted at the speech and nodded again and again, which was a good note.


    "Moreover, the Mohist school is not without rivals. It is said that the Mohist School and the public loser are sworn enemies in the pre-Qin period. If we can find the public loser, we will find a way to deal with the Mohist school." shopkeeper Wang continued. He worked hard for revenge. In the past, others spoke lightly. Even if we find the public loser, people won''t pay attention to him, But the appearance of the Taiyuan Wang family is different.


    "OK, go to the Gongshu family immediately. I believe he will be very willing to cooperate with the Wang family!" Wang Zhe showed a malicious smile and was very happy. He finally found a way to deal with the Mohists.


    "Yes, young master!" shopkeeper Wang replied.


    "However, we can''t let go of Mohism for a while!"


    Whether it is imitation or looking for public losers, it can''t be completed in a moment and a half. Wang Zhe doesn''t have that long patience to wait and let mojiazi continue to be proud.


    Shopkeeper Wang thought for a moment and said, "in addition to live fish, there are only Mohist hospital and Mohist food city to be established in Chang''an city!"


    "Mo hospital?" Wang Zhe immediately shook his head. Others didn''t know that Wang Zhe was clear. The establishment of Mo hospital was supported by Prince Li Chengqian, and the women''s medical school was also for the condition of empress Chang sun. These couldn''t be moved at all.


    "Then take the Mohist food city first!" Wang Zhe said ruthlessly.


    "But young master, it is said that there are three members of the country''s princes in these food cities?" shopkeeper Wang said carefully.


    Wang Zhe suddenly stagnated when he heard the speech. He had heard about the relationship between Qin Huaiyu and Mohist Zi for a long time!


    However, so what? Anyway, Wang Zhe and the three are not in the same circle. They are not in the same circle.


    "Don''t worry, you can rest assured to prepare. Qin Huaiyu and others will naturally be dealt with!" Wang Zhe thought of Chang sun Chong''s promise and said confidently.

 Chapter 166

    After more than ten days of running, Xu Jie finally came back from Luoyang,


    "320 wounded horses!"


    Merton was elated when he heard Xu Jie''s report on his harvest in Luoyang City.


    "Tell the owner, with the owner''s method and the medicine sent, 320 horses are now recovering gradually, and I believe they will come back in a few days." Xu Jie said that the 320 horses he said are indeed recovering. Most of the injured horses have no empty head.


    "Shopkeeper Xu has worked hard!" Merton said excitedly.


    Xu Jie showed a happy smile and knew that his first battle in Mojia village had finally started. Xu Jie''s trip to Luoyang not only got 320 wounded horses, but also widened the business road of Mojia village in Luoyang City.


    And different from Xu Jie''s difficult business in the past, he used Merton''s method to fight a time difference in Luoyang. These 300 horses are almost as easy as those he picked up. However, Xu Jie, who has been in business all his life, has never realized it.


    The second battle is Xu Jie''s carefully planned Mohist Food City, which is the most important battle for Xu Jie to gain a firm foothold in Mohist village.


    The artificially hatched chickens, ducks and geese have grown up after several months of growth. Merton starts the Mohist food city to fulfill his original promise to Li Shimin that there will be no phenomenon of cheap meat hurting farmers.


    "Mr. Xu is in trouble about Mohist Food City," Merton said.


    Xu Jie nodded solemnly. He found that the business in Mojia village was very different from his previous business. In the past, he only did business for profit by any means, while Mojia village pursued win-win. However, he had never heard that selling things to customers would also help customers make profits.


    "After sales service!" Xu Jie always has a new understanding when he thinks of the word Merton said.


    Mohist food city is actually the product of resource integration through the transformation of Goubuli steamed stuffed bun shop, fish champion building and ink technology exhibition.


    Since the settlement of Mohist hospital, the road in front of the Imperial College has gradually become prosperous. People come and go every day. Since ancient times, it is easy to form a commercial area in front of the hospital and school, and Mohist Food City naturally came into being.


    Xu Jie has been full of praise since he tasted the delicious food of Mohist house. In addition, he immediately felt promising by studying the branch model of Goubuli steamed stuffed bun shop. Mohist food city is an attempt made by Xu Jie to Mohist village. If feasible, it will be promoted immediately like Goubuli steamed stuffed bun shop.


    Fish champion building!


    Xu Jie and Master Yu looked excitedly at the large-scale construction in the ink technology exhibition.


    "Don''t worry, brother Xu. You can''t delay the young master''s business!" the fish Master said with a smile.


    What Mojia village does not lack is workers. In just more than ten days, the ink technology exhibition has been transformed into a huge food Square.


    "The skills of Mohist village are really excellent!" Xu Jie exclaimed and watched as huge weights were easily lifted and installed by Mohist children with a pulley tool.


    In Xu Jie''s eyes, why doesn''t this tool have great commercial value? Xu Jie feels that Mojia village is giving him more and more surprises.


    Of course, now is not the time for promotion. According to master Zhang, they are developing an iron rope made of steel wire. If the development is successful, it is easy for a person to lift 10000 kilograms of heavy objects with the help of this tool.


    Xu Jie suppressed the shock in his heart. He can imagine how much sensation it will cause once the Mojia village is really developed successfully.


    Xu Jie joined Mojia village for only half a month, but he found himself shocked too many times, but now the most important thing is the current Mojia food city.


    "I''d like to ask brother Yu to pay more attention to the training of chefs." Xu Jie arched his hand at the fish master.


    The most important thing in the food city is the chef. The fish master is responsible for the training.


    "Don''t worry, brother Xu, you won''t be disappointed." Master Yu promised confidently,


    At this time, the fish ran over with a flustered face and whispered in the fish master''s ear.


    Seeing Master Yu''s face, Xu Jie was immediately gloomy and asked, "brother Yu, what''s the matter?"


    "The dog just went to buy fine salt, but all of them are out of stock!" the fish master''s face coagulated heavily.


    The fish champion is a top restaurant. Of course, he uses the best fine salt, but now he can''t buy fine salt. If the fish champion really uses coarse salt as seasoning, the taste is estimated to drop greatly, and soon the reputation of the fish champion will be lost.


    "Fine salt is fine salt in Yuncheng!" Xu Jie said. The Mohist food city he prepared is also going to use fine salt. When it opens, it will be a joke if there is a direct lack of salt.


    "Back to the shopkeeper! The best salt in Chang''an is Yuncheng fine salt. Both Sichuan Sichuan well salt and Qidi sea salt taste very bad and are full of impurities. They are OK for ordinary household use, but they can''t be used in restaurants." Yu Er replied.


    "Have you ever asked why and how long it will take to arrive?" Xu Jie asked.


    "It is said that the production of salt pond was reduced, and large customers from other places contracted large orders." the second fish replied.


    "No, I''ll go there myself. I must buy fine salt!" said Master Yu anxiously. He is a chef. Of course, he knows the importance of salt. Taste means word of mouth. If a restaurant loses word of mouth, it''s not far from closing down. The fish champion building is his hard work, but it can''t be destroyed in a single blow.


    "Brother Yu, don''t go!" Xu Jie stopped the anxious fish master with a wry smile.


    Master Yu looked at Xu Jie suspiciously. You know, fine salt is related to the success or failure of Mohist food city.


    "This matter is still a drag on brother Yu! Brother Yu doesn''t know that the real owner behind Yuncheng fine salt is the Taiyuan Wang family!" Xu Jie said bitterly.


    Yuncheng salt pond is one of the most famous salt ponds in the Tang Dynasty. It has been developed on a large scale since the Han Dynasty. It is exported to the customs and is the most important source of edible salt in Chang''an city!


    Datang does not implement the official operation of salt and iron. The Taiyuan Wangs have operated in Taiyuan for hundreds of years. Although they do not directly control the salt pond, they firmly control the fine salt with the highest profit in their own hands.


    From this means of directly cutting off salt, Xu Jie felt the previous style of the Taiyuan Wang family. At that time, his Xu firm fell on the move of the Taiyuan Wang family.


    "Salt is a national treasure, but it is used for public and private purposes." master fish said angrily.


    In fact, this is not just about Xu Jie. The young master of the horse injury incident has made a bad relationship with the Wang family. He didn''t expect that the Wang family should use such despicable means.


    Xu Jie nodded painfully. He had a deep understanding of the wanton plundering of these aristocratic families by virtue of their privileges.


    Soon, a notice was posted outside the yuzhuangyuan building and closed down. However, it was said that it was to cooperate with the opening of the Mohist Food City and stabilize the source of tourists for the time being.


    Sun YangZheng is in the store!


    Wang Zhe was having a dinner with his eldest son. After hearing the news that the yuzhuangyuan building was closed for rectification, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Wang Zhe carefully studied the business model of yuzhuangyuan building and found that the ingredients of yuzhuangyuan were directly supplied by Mojia village. It was impossible to do anything. After studying for a long time, there was only fine salt.


    "Congratulations, brother Wang''s plan is successful and he has eliminated another strong enemy for sun YangZheng store." Chang sun Chong smiled and complimented. No one thought that sun YangZheng store, which is famous in Chang''an City, is also the industry of Taiyuan Wang family.


    In the past few months after the Yangxian incident, the business of sun YangZheng''s store gradually returned to normal, but suddenly ushered in the challenge of the fish champion. This time, Wang Zhe has to deal with Mojia village. In addition to exporting gas, what is more important is the dispute of interests.


    "The ink family, Wang has never paid attention to it, but the next few people of Qin Huaiyu will rely on the help of elder brother sun!" Wang Zhe


    Arched hand.


    Although Mojia village lost the most salt this time, Qin Huaiyu and others were also damaged.


    "Don''t worry, brother Wang!" the eldest son nodded. As long as he can deal with the Mexican family, he can bear the pressure.

 Chapter 167

    "The Wang family deceives people too much!"


    In the top scholar building, Qin Huaiyu was furious.


    The fish champion building is their most valuable property. Although Merton has never given them a bonus, he can see that Goubuli steamed stuffed bun shops are spread out from house to house. The fish champion building is very popular. They are used to turning up their own assets in the open, which is also a kind of enjoyment.


    "I don''t think Wang Zhen wants to hang out in Chang''an!" Chumo''s eyes flashed a little anger.


    After the fish champion building was on fire, the three of them told everyone that they were the owner of the most popular restaurant in Chang''an city. There was so much face. If the champion building fell down, wouldn''t they lose all their face in Chang''an City! Not to mention that this time it also involves their bigger business - Mohist food city.


    "By the way, where''s Merton?" Qin Huaiyu suddenly asked.


    "The young master has been informed! The young master is also trying to find a way!" said the fish master. After the Wang family cut off the salt, Xu Jie reported to Merton at the first time, but Merton just said Oh, he knew.


    "Let''s go without waiting for Merton. Let''s go in person. I want to see how brave the Wang family is to break our salt!" Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin also get up in a hurry. After all, there are members of them. They haven''t been in charge of them at ordinary times. Now it''s time for them to help!


    Salt is related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood, and everyone is an essential necessity. Some studies have shown that human life expectancy has been greatly extended, starting with eating salt.


    The profits of salt have always been huge profits, and salt merchants are rich. Wang''s salt shop occupies eight stores in the most prosperous center of Dongshi.


    Wang''s salt shop is a fine salt business, and it is making great progress every day. The stores are built with magnificent and magnificent momentum. There is an endless stream of salt merchants and salt traders coming and going, and the business is extremely prosperous.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them rushed to Wang''s salt shop with fresh clothes and angry horses.


    When the shopkeeper of Wang''s salt shop saw that the situation was wrong, he hurried forward and said, "what can I do for you, young masters?"


    Most of the people who come to the salt shop are servants or salt traders. But there is absolutely no precedent for rich young masters to come to the salt shop to buy salt.


    "Call Wang Zhe out!" Qin Huaiyu didn''t talk nonsense and went straight to the theme.


    "Looking for my young master?" the shopkeeper of the salt shop was stunned. He immediately thought of what the young master had ordered and guessed the identities of the three.


    "Young masters, if you want to buy salt, just ask me. I think the three young masters must be rich and noble. But now the fine salt is out of stock, and others don''t come. Since the three young masters come in person, the small one can spare a kilo or two for the urgent use of several young masters first!" the shopkeeper of the salt shop said with a smile. There is no leakage in his words, that is, he pointed out that the fine salt is out of stock, He took out a pound or two symbolically, as if it was very face saving.


    "One or two catties?" Qin Huaiyu snorted coldly. If one or two catties are enough for ordinary people to use for ten and a half days, but for a large restaurant, I''m afraid it won''t last for half a day.


    "Don''t play these tricks. Call Wang Zhe out to my childe and say I''m Qin Huaiyu looking for him. If I don''t see him again, don''t blame you for losing the store!" Qin Huaiyu said proudly.


    Wei Chi Baolin and Cheng chumerton are ready to try.


    "Oh! Really? Who was I? It was brother Qin. No wonder you were so angry!" a frivolous voice sounded from behind Qin Huaiyu.


    "Chang sun Chong!" Qin Huaiyu looked back and saw Chang sun Chong and Wang Zhe coming in from outside the salt shop.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at each other, and suddenly a strong smell of conspiracy came to his heart. Chang sun Chong and Wang Zhe came together! No wonder Wang Zhe has no fear.


    "When the three princes came to the Wang''s shop, my Wang''s salt shop was full of splendor. It was impolite for my little brother to meet me far away!" Wang Zhe and his eldest sun Chong sang in harmony.


    "Hum! Wang Zhen, I asked you what you mean? The fish champion building has our members, and you can''t help but break the salt!" Chumo is so angry that he can''t help getting angry.


    "Really? Wang Dong, what''s going on?" Wang Zhe falsely scolded.


    Wang Dong is the shopkeeper of the salt store. He said wrongfully: "tell me, young master! This is indeed a misunderstanding. It has rained in Yuncheng for days these days, which has seriously affected the output of fine salt! The salt store is also suffering heavy losses! But the three young masters can rest assured that once the fine salt is transported back, it will be sent to the three young masters at the first time."


    "Well, I also know that there is too much precipitation in Hedong. I''ve heard of it even far away in the pass. If God doesn''t open his eyes again, I''m afraid there will be a flood!" Chang sun Chong looked worried and spoke to help Wang Zhe.


    "Flood?" Chumo hums coldly. He knows that all this is just an excuse for Wang Zhe and others. How can they believe such a bad excuse.


    "It seems that you really want to walk the road!" Qin Huaiyu said coldly.


    "Brother Qin really misunderstood. It''s really caused by natural disasters. There''s nothing I can do about it!" Wang Zhe explained repeatedly.


    As soon as they said this, Qin Huaiyu and the three immediately looked angry. They didn''t expect to come to the door in person. Wang Zhe was so tough.


    "Why are you trying to force people? There''s no fine salt, and there''s no coarse salt? Anyway, after using it, others can''t see it!" the eldest sun rushed aside to help.


    "Yes, yes, three brothers, how much crude salt you want will never delay the affairs of the champion building." Wang Zhe said in a voice.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them were cold. If they bought crude salt today, within a day, it is estimated that everyone in Chang''an city will know that the fish champion building uses crude salt. The business of the fish champion building will be destroyed and not far from going bankrupt!


    Qin Huaiyu is angry, but he has no choice. Knowing that Chang sun Chong is here today, Wang Zhe and they must be prepared. They can''t make a bargain alone!


    "I hope you don''t regret it? Go!" Qin Huaiyu stops Chumo, who wants to smash the store, and takes the lead out of Wang''s salt shop.


    Watching the three leave, Chang sun Chong sighed with regret. He didn''t expect Qin Huaiyu to hold back his anger and didn''t get angry on the spot, which made all his preparations come to naught, otherwise they would suffer a great loss.


    "Thanks for your help, elder brother Chang sun!" Wang Zhe said proudly to Chang sun.


    This time, he resisted the pressure of Qin Huaiyu and lost the fine salt. The fish champion building was the fish meat on the chopping board, which was slaughtered by him.


    "It''s a piece of cake. I hope brother Wang doesn''t forget your promise!" the eldest sun rushed.


    "Don''t worry, elder brother. I''ve already figured out the business model of the fish champion building. As long as the fish champion building closes down, my younger brother''s fish farm has only 30% of elder brother sun''s. If we work together, we must be another fish champion." Wang Zhe said proudly.


    Arrogant Wang Zhe personally took action against Merton. In addition to retaliating and keeping sun YangZheng''s name, more importantly, he also fell in love with the fish champion building. In order to achieve his goal, he didn''t hesitate to promise 30% to Chang sun in return.


    With a common enemy and a combination of interests, the two immediately hit it off.

 Chapter 168

    "Chang sun Chong"


    In the ink mansion, Merton''s face was dignified! Unexpectedly, the two of them joined hands.


    "If Huaiyu hadn''t stopped there, I would have smashed the broken shop!" Chumo said angrily.


    Wei Chi Baolin raised his hand angrily and waved his fist.


    "Chang sun Yin people are there, we can''t take advantage of them!" Qin Huaiyu shook her head and said. In their circle, Chang sun Chong is the most insidious and has many means. If they rush, they will be caught in the trap.


    "Huaiyu is right!" Merton nodded. Among the three, Qin Huaiyu knows the advance and retreat best.


    He had seen the means of Chang sun Chong. If he hadn''t been better at it last time, he might have really lost his reputation.


    "Should they be allowed to bully us like this?" Wei Chi Baolin said angrily. He was the most upright and couldn''t stand it.


    "Isn''t it salt? What a big thing, can''t you eat salt without his king''s family!" Merton said indifferently.


    Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "you don''t know, although I don''t monopolize salt and iron in the Tang Dynasty, there are strict restrictions on the salt administration in each place. The fine salt in other places has basically improved to Chang''an city."


    Salt tax has always been a great source of finance. Although there was no salt and iron official camp in Zhenguan period, it was impossible for the imperial court to let go of such huge wealth. The salt administration in each place was strictly divided in order to levy taxes.


    Since Wang Zhe started his horse, he must have been sure of this, so he had no fear.


    "Since the Wang family doesn''t sell fine salt and fine salt from other places can''t come in, we can make salt ourselves!" Merton sneered.


    "Make your own salt?"


    Qin Huaiyu and the three immediately looked at Merton and looked suspicious. Should Merton even know this!


    Merton smiled and didn''t explain, but directly led the three people to the back kitchen of the ink house.


    As soon as he got to the kitchen door, Qin Huaiyu saw several sacks of salt stacked at the kitchen door.


    "Is this coarse salt?" Chumo leaned over, picked up a large salt grain, put it in his mouth and tasted it. Suddenly, Chumo spit out his tongue bitterly.


    "Not only crude salt, but also Yuncheng crude salt!" Merton said.


    "Morton, don''t you want to grind these coarse salt into fine salt?" Chumo asked. The taste of coarse salt is so bad that even he can distinguish it, let alone others.


    "Of course not?" Merton said angrily.


    "Then what''s going on?" Qin Huaiyu wondered.


    "The biggest difference between coarse salt and fine salt is that there are many impurities. If we remove the impurities of coarse salt, we get naturally pure fine salt," Merton explained.


    The three suddenly realized that Merton''s plan was really ready to make his own salt.


    "Master, three young masters!" Xu Jie came out of the kitchen and bowed.


    "How''s everything going?" Merton asked.


    "Tell the owner that everything is ready!" Xu Jie said.


    Qin Huaiyu followed Merton into the back kitchen curiously, and found that the back kitchen was full of pots and pans. A big pot had already been put up, and the fire was raging inside.


    This time, with Qin Huaiyu''s three free labor forces, Merton didn''t use the people of the Mohist village at all, and the three were always extraordinarily interested in Merton''s experiment and let Merton drive them.


    Under the command of Merton, Wei Chi Baolin grabbed the coarse salt bag and poured the large coarse salt directly into the water basin. It soon melted and disappeared, and the clear water gradually became turbid.


    "Keep pouring!" Merton looked at the water tank. The salt had almost melted. He motioned Wei Chi Baolin to continue pouring the crude salt until the crude salt no longer melted and the salt water was saturated.


    "To make fine salt, filter out the sediment!" Merton explained.


    One of the most criticisms of crude salt is its bitter taste. The other is that it has a lot of sediment. You can chew a grain of sand when you eat it, not to mention how sour it is.


    Qin Huaiyu takes out an empty basin and covers it with 50% linen. Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin jointly lift the brine basin and pour it on the linen. The linen absorbs sediment and the clean water seeps into the empty basin. After repeating this three times, they finally get the clear brine.


    "That''s all right?" Qin Huaiyu said excitedly, only feeling that it was too simple.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course not. This is just the first step. Don''t look at the clear salt water. In fact, there are a lot of impurities in it."


    Crude salt contains other soluble substances, and the biggest problem of Yuncheng pool salt is the high content of magnesium, which seriously affects the taste. Just in the purification experiment, the simplest step is this step.


    Merton picked up a limestone already prepared and put it into a basin of clean water. It was boiling immediately.


    After a burst of boiling, the limestone quickly turned into lime slurry. After the lime water became clear, Merton carefully poured the upper lime water into the salt water.


    The salt water became turbid again, and then clarified again soon. Only a thin layer of white sediment was left on the basin. The salt water on the upper layer was poured out. Merton put a spoonful of alkaline surface into the salt water again, and the salt water became turbid again. After clarification, a layer of white sediment is left on the bottom of the basin again.


    When he poured out the clarified brine again, Merton finally breathed a sigh of relief. Due to the limitations of conditions, there was no precise device, which could only be estimated.


    A pot of salt water was poured into the pot, and the raging fire burned. Soon, the salt water boiled, and a thin layer of salt crystals appeared on the whole water surface. The whole kitchen can ask for a strong salty taste.


    "That''s all right?"


    Qin Huaiyu stared at Merton to finish all this. Although they didn''t understand the principle, they always had a feeling of ignorance.


    There is no need for Merton to operate the rest. He will directly hand it over to Xu Jie.


    Within half an hour, Xu Jie appeared in front of Merton with a happy face.


    "Master! Three young masters." Xu Jie took a stack of snow-white fine salt and handed it to the four people.


    "It''s really fine salt!" Chumo pinches a little and puts it into his mouth. Suddenly, a salty taste rushes into the taste bud. There is no bitterness of coarse salt at all. It tastes better.


    "Hahaha, I''ll see how Chang sun Chong and Wang Zhe break our salt! The fish champion is saved!" Wei Chi Baolin said excitedly. The Taiyuan Wangs may have a monopoly on fine salt, but they can''t reach the coarse salt.


    "No, it''s better than Yuncheng fine salt!" Qin Huaiyu shook his head. He had seen Yuncheng fine salt with his own eyes, far from the white salt in front of him.


    Merton looked at the white salt grain in front of him. I''m afraid it''s the purest salt in the world! Yuncheng fine salt is just brine with good quality and does not have much technical content.


    "This is a brand-new salt, please name it!" Xu Jie said excitedly. Salt has always been a huge profit, and such pure salt is in short supply. It is conceivable that once this salt appears in Chang''an market, it will cause a sensation.


    In order to distinguish from Yuncheng fine salt, Xu Jie thought of another name for the first time and set up another signboard.


    "In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Xie Taifu once collected women''s generals on a snowy day. The duke said, ''what''s the difference between heavy snow and heavy snow!''" brother Zi said: ''sprinkle salt in the air! You can imitate it!'' predecessors compared salt to snow. Today salt is better than snow! Just call it snow salt! "Merton thought.


    "Snow salt!"


    "OK! It''s called snow salt!"


    "Wang Zhe is stupid this time! He still wants to break our salt. As soon as the snow salt comes out, I see how he cries!"


    Qin Huaiyu raised his eyebrows and vomited his airway. The previous resentment was immediately cleared away.


    "How much is lost in refining snow salt?" Merton asked.


    "Tell the owner that the loss is less than 30%," Xu Jie replied. Merton uses processed crude salt with high salt content.


    In other words, ten kilograms of crude salt can be refined into at least eight kilograms of snow salt. With the consumption of lime water, alkali and labor, it is also a huge profit. Mojia village has added a daily gold business.


    "Write down all these steps and let Uncle Zhang continue to test the addition ratio of lime water and alkaline water, so as to achieve the best. First refine enough snow salt for standby." Merton ordered.


    "Yes, boss!" Xu Jie said excitedly. Merton let him participate in the refining of snow and salt. Obviously, he didn''t regard it as an outsider, which moved him.


    "The fish champion building?" Qin Huaiyu asked.


    "Close the business temporarily, and give them a surprise when the Mohist food city opens!" Merton sneered.


    "Hey, hey!" Qin Huaiyu and the three of them immediately smiled insidiously. They were looking forward to such a situation.

 Chapter 169

    Since Merton was used in the ink technology exhibition, the advertisement immediately showed great power, especially after the ink hospital was promoted as the first medical museum in Chang''an City in a short time.


    Now the first choice for new stores in Chang''an city is to advertise in ink magazines. Now Ink magazine is soft on the advertising business alone, and the price is rising slowly.


    Even Mo San''s position in Mojia village is rising slowly. Over time, the round table meeting in Mojia village must have its place.


    The Mohist food city has been advertised in Ink magazine for two consecutive periods. It has been known all over the city and the date has been determined. With the promotion of opening time, the advertising leaflets are flying around Chang''an city.


    "Mohist Food City opened?"


    Wang Zhe looked at the leaflet of the Mohist Food City collected by the servant. It not only publicized the new food of the Mohist Food City, but also focused on the reopening of the fish champion building!


    "Has the Mohist family found fine salt?" Wang Zhe angrily said. Wang Jia''s salt shop only limited salt to one Mohist village. The fish champion building and Mohist Food City opened as scheduled. Wang Zhe suspected that Mohist village had obtained fine salt from other channels.


    "Young master, you can guarantee that the Mohist school has never bought fine salt." Wang Dong, the shopkeeper of the salt shop, immediately promised.


    The king''s salt shop claims that there is a shortage of fine salt, which is also limited to other families. Although it will not cut off salt, there will never be much left. It is impossible to fund Mojia village. Moreover, this kind of thing is extremely easy to be found. No one will be willing to offend the king''s salt shop to help Mojia village.


    "However, according to the information from the little inquirer, Mojia village has bought a lot of coarse salt. It must be that Mojia village wants to use these coarse salt instead of fine salt." Wang Dong guessed.


    "Mojia village is looking for its own death! Continue to follow up. Once it is confirmed that the fish champion building eats crude salt, my young master will let it be doomed." Wang Zhe sneered.


    "Yes, young master!" Wang Dong answered.


    Chang''an City says that it is big and small. The contradiction between Mohism and Wang family has spread all over the business circles of Chang''an city.


    The Wangs cut off the fine salt of Mojia village. Under the pressure of Mojia village, the Mojia Food City opened as scheduled, and a dragon and tiger struggle is about to begin.


    The opening time of Mohist food city was just on the day when the Imperial College was closed. Although there were no firecrackers in this era, Merton made great efforts. The whole food city was full of brocade flags, four lions and four dragons. The advertising effect was not very good.


    "There are a lot of Mohist ghost ideas!" outside the champion building, Wang Zhe looked at the noisy lion dance in front of him and said something speechless.


    I really don''t know how Mohist''s brain grows. These strange publicity tricks cost little, but the effect is excellent. Obviously, dragon and lion dance is essential when shops in Chang''an City open in the future.


    "No matter how good the publicity is, without fine salt, their business can''t go up to the grade!" Wang Dong, the shopkeeper of the salt store, sneered.


    As a salt merchant, he has a deep understanding of his fine salt. It is not comparable to those coarse salt on the market. The meals cooked by the same master, one with coarse salt and the other with fine salt, will be very different.


    "However, the Mohist school has also done a good thing. When the Wangjia fish farm is opened, it can also use these propaganda tricks!" Wang Zhe looked at the people who come and go into the Mohist food city with bee pupae and said jealously. In a short period of time, there have been hundreds of traffic.


    "The Mo family is to make wedding clothes for the young master no matter how many means they have!" Wang Dong echoed.


    They sang together as if Merton was a turtle in a jar.


    "Let''s go. Let''s see for ourselves what tricks mojiazi plays again?" Wang Zhe got up and said.


    "I''ve wronged you once today. I''ll taste the coarse salt and poor rice in yuzhuangyuan building." Wang Dong said.


    "Ha ha, how delicious can the food made with crude salt be? If it''s not delicious, I won''t pay for it?" Wang Zhe said proudly.


    They swaggered and entered the fish champion building together. Like an ordinary guest, they chose a position in the hall and ordered one according to the fish champion''s signature menu.


    "My guest, I''m afraid you can''t finish eating so much!" the waiter in charge of the reception kindly suggested.


    "Don''t worry about it." Wang Zhe said angrily.


    "It''s all right. Just take all the orders. Don''t worry about the others!" Wang Dong motioned to the waiter.


    "Good guest!"


    The fish champion building has regulations. As long as the guest orders and obeys unconditionally, the man has no choice but to say hello and go down to arrange.


    The efficiency of Yu Zhuangyuan building was very high. After a while, all kinds of signature dishes filled Wang Zhe''s table.


    Wang Dong stretched out his chopsticks and tasted each dish. The more he ate, the more he frowned.


    "What''s the matter?" Wang Zhe said in surprise. He was waiting for Wang Dong to pick on him. Unexpectedly, Wang Dong didn''t move.


    "You''ll know as soon as you taste it!" Wang Dong said with an ugly face.


    After tasting it one by one, Wang Zhe finally knew Wang Dong''s doubts. It was not bad, but delicious. There was no bitterness of crude salt at all.


    The fish champion building didn''t use crude salt. They looked at each other and judged their own judgment.


    "My taste is very strong. Sprinkle some salt on these dishes!"


    Wang Dong called the waiter to him and pointed to the dishes one by one. He wanted to see for himself what salt the Mojia village got in the first place.


    "My guest! All the dishes in our restaurant are carefully prepared by the chef, and then put salt, I''m afraid..." man, why.


    "My young master has a strong taste! You can control it. Bring the salt and I''ll sprinkle it myself!" Wang Zhe snapped when he saw the failure to suppress the fish champion building.


    Wang Zhe''s obvious fault finding behavior immediately attracted the attention of all customers and couldn''t help looking at it.


    "Oh! Who should I be? It''s two young masters!"


    When Merton and Xu Jie came down from the second floor and saw Wang Zhe, they couldn''t help laughing.


    "Why? They don''t welcome customers when they open a shop and do business. They want to drive people out?" Wang Zhe said strangely.


    "It depends on whether you really come to dinner or deliberately find fault." Merton sneered.


    "Mohism doesn''t always boast universal love. Why? We should treat each other differently when we come to dinner!" Wang Ran.


    "Friends come with good wine, jackals come with long guns, and Mohist universal love is not stupid love! You can''t distinguish between enemies and friends!" Merton Lang said.


    Wang Zhe''s face was gloomy, and the Mo family compared him to a jackal.


    "Don''t you two have a strong taste? There is a stack of salt in front of each table in the fish champion building for customers to season themselves. If you really feel that the taste is weak, you can serve the salt yourself!" Merton said coldly.


    "There is salt on the table!" Wang Zhe was stunned.


    Wang Dong looked around and finally found several bottles on the table full of dishes! Finally, he focused on the small jar containing snow-white powder.


    "Is this salt?" Wang Zhe looked at the crystal like snow grain in disbelief.


    "This is the latest product of Mohism - Snow salt. It will be on sale in Chang''an City in the near future. I hope Wang''s salt shop will give me more advice at that time!" Merton sneered.


    "Snow salt!"


    At the moment, Wang Dong, regardless of his face, directly sprinkled snow salt on his palm and put it into his mouth. His face immediately changed wildly. Such pure salt is the best Yuncheng fine salt. I''m afraid it will be inferior by three points.


    He immediately thought of the information about the large amount of crude salt purchased by Mojia village. At that time, he didn''t care. Now it seems that these snow salt must be extracted from those crude salt.


    He didn''t expect to be sure to eat the Mojia village. He didn''t expect to be beaten down by the Mojia village and developed snow salt to attract a great enemy to the Wang family''s salt shop.


    "Young master, you are carrying a stone and smashing yourself in the foot. What is 500 horses? What is the name of sun YangZheng''s shop? Salt shop is the real pillar of the Wang family." Wang Dong lamented in his heart.

 Chapter 170

    Seeing that the master and servant of the Wang family left in a panic, Merton couldn''t help shaking his head and laughing. The Wang family was used to being overbearing and bullied the door. He really thought that the Mohist family was still the original time when thousands of people beat the broken drum.


    Xu Jie couldn''t help feeling in his heart! The business model of Mojia village has a strong ability to resist risks. It is estimated that if you own a Wangjia firm, it will still not last long under the means of the Wangjia.


    However, what impressed Xu Jie most was Merton''s means. What problem could be easily solved in Merton''s hands.


    "What about the three?" Merton looked left and right. He couldn''t help asking Qin Huaiyu.


    "The three young masters have already arrived at the Mohist food city." Xu Jie replied.


    "These three food goods!" Merton said with hatred.


    Merton entered the food city from the back door of the fish champion. As soon as he stepped out of the door, a strong smell came to his face.


    Accompanied by the aroma and lively noise, the whole food city is crowded and noisy. It seems that the advertising effect is too good. Of course, there may be the reason for the half price discount on the day of opening.


    "This is the real life?"


    Merton looked at the lively scene and couldn''t help laughing. He stepped forward with the flow of people. The fight just now seemed to be just a small episode. The most basic pursuit of mankind is to eat, first to be full, and then to eat well.


    The original site of the Mohist art exhibition was very large. After it was reorganized into a Mohist Food City, it expanded a lot.


    The structure of the whole food city is surrounded by three without one. Except that there is only one yuzhuangyuan building in the south facing the street, the rest are demolished. There are food shops in the East, West and North.


    When Merton finally found Qin Huaiyu and the three of them, he found that they were having a good time in the fried chicken shop. They still couldn''t stop filling their mouths.


    Today is the food city. The main food is fried chicken, which was originally the exclusive food of yuzhuangyuan building. It is open to the people of Chang''an City for the first time.


    "Wang Zhe, that boy still has today!" Qin Huaiyu laughed with her stomach covered after hearing Merton''s report.


    "He''s lucky this time. I didn''t show up in person, otherwise I wouldn''t let him go so easily!" Chumo said angrily. It''s obvious that he''s still angry about the Wang family''s salt shop.


    "Wuwu!" Wei Chi Baolin''s mouth was full of food. He couldn''t hear clearly, so he waved his fist.


    "Don''t worry, this fair Mohist school will naturally ask him for it." Merton nodded.


    "In order to celebrate this moment, I''ll have another plate!" Qin Huaiyu said excitedly.


    "Don''t eat so much! You''ll be a fat pig!" Merton warned angrily.


    "Don''t worry! I''m growing up. I''m not afraid!" Qin Huaiyu said.


    "Me too!" Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin are unwilling to show weakness.


    Merton looked at the three people eating, shook his head and said in his heart, "I''m afraid you don''t know how many delicious food there are next!"


    On the second day, the Mojia food city focused on roast duck, and on the third day, it launched a variety of popular pasta,


    The fourth day focuses on cooking! The chef of cooking is the fish master. The champion building is specially closed for one day to cook for the food city.


    The food of Datang is mainly cooked. When fried dishes first appeared in Datang, almost all people who have tasted them are full of praise.


    For four days, Mohist food was once again popular in Chang''an city. The whole Chang''an City ushered in a Food Carnival. The flow of people in Mohist food city was endless, especially during three meals.


    The publicity period of Mohist food city is five days. Every day, a major food will be launched. After tasting the food of the day, everyone will not only have more meaning, but also look forward to the food of tomorrow.


    The people of Chang''an city seem to have an abnormal interest in eating. It can be seen that the beauty of fat in the future Tang Dynasty is not out of thin air. After the fermentation of the first four days, the fifth day just came to the top. A large number of Chang''an citizens in the Mohist Food City came and waited early, and the emergence of the fifth food.


    But eating too much is not a good thing. For a general''s children, eating fat is a disaster. Merton has just witnessed a human tragedy.


    The door of the fish champion building, which had been closed for a long time, suddenly opened. Qin Huaiyu was beaten like a pig''s head. They were dejected and followed in front of Cheng Yaojin. Their faces were black and blue. They looked at Merton for a while.


    "Three smelly boys! How come you''ve retreated so much recently? You''ve eaten so much and fed it to the dog!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Qin Huaiyu with a disdainful face.


    It''s conceivable that the three underage boys will play against a great general. In particular, Cheng Yaojin came to teach them with the orders of his two old friends. He was even trickier.


    Qinhuaiyu three people suddenly mouth a draw, nono dare not answer. And they are also unjustifiable. They have been drinking and eating too much in recent days. Even they feel a lot decadent.


    "Mohist boy, pack each of your delicacies and send them to Cheng''s house. I''m afraid Chumo won''t be able to get out of the house for a long time. Let him eat enough at one time!" Cheng Yaojin said angrily, showing his big teeth.


    Morton trembled in his heart and couldn''t help mourning for the three for three seconds. Chumo came to this end. It can be imagined that Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin are not much better. These days, they don''t need Chumo to eat less.


    "Uncle Cheng, don''t worry, I promise to deliver!" the dead Taoist friend didn''t die. Morton resolutely chose to stand in line.


    "Hoo!"


    Watching Cheng Yaojin slip away with three unlucky people, Merton breathed a sigh of relief. The power of the great demon king Cheng can''t be borne by ordinary people.


    "Are you glad no one cares about you?" a voice sounded in Merton''s ear.


    Merton nodded involuntarily, woke up suddenly, turned around quickly, and saw Li Shimin''s big black face behind him.


    "How is it possible?" Merton quickly shook his head and retorted, "like these three guys with weak will, someone should discipline them well."


    "You''re a wise man!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. At the moment, Li Shimin was dressed in brocade and plain clothes, like a landlord who enjoyed life in Chang''an city.


    "Hee hee!"


    A snicker attracted Merton''s attention. Li Zhi and Li Mingda followed Li Shimin like golden girls. In their view, Merton, like the great devil, also has today.


    "Mo devil, I heard you have a lot of delicious food here, but you can''t lie!" Li Zhizhi said.


    Next to him, Jinyang Princess Li Mingda, dressed in colorful clothes, couldn''t help licking her lips and looking forward to delicious food. For children, it''s an irresistible temptation.


    Thinking of the food to be launched today, Merton said confidently, "I''m sure you''ll be satisfied."

 Chapter 171

    The Mohist food city is full of people. It is like a temple fair. It is a feast of delicious food.


    "Is this the way you said to solve the problem of cheap meat hurting farmers?"


    In the Food City, Li Shimin, like an ordinary diner, took Li Zhi and Li Mingda to sit on the tables and chairs for people to rest and taste food, picked up a fried chicken steak and tasted it, frowning.


    He didn''t like the taste of fried chicken very much. Instead, he liked the fruit tree roast duck very much. He picked up a thin Shuiluo steamed bun, sandwiched the sliced duck meat, added shredded green onion, stained with the prepared sweet flour sauce, and ate it.


    "Master Li, do you know how many chickens and ducks have been used in the four-day opening of Mohist Food City?"


    There are people everywhere. Merton dare not call Li Shimin emperor, but master Li.


    "There are 3000 chickens and 2000 ducks, and today there are more than 2000 live chickens and 1000 ducks ready to supply the food city at any time." Merton didn''t let Li Shimin guess and gave the answer directly.


    "So many!" Li Shimin exclaimed! However, seeing so many people around eating with Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang, I couldn''t help believing Merton''s words.


    "The increase in the number of chicken and duck breeding will inevitably lead to a decline in the price of meat. If we want to stabilize the interests of farmers, we can only solve it by demand. With these delicious foods studied by Mohist school, I''m afraid the price of chicken and duck in Jingzhao mansion can''t be reduced in a short time." Merton said confidently.


    "It''s just the price of meat! Master Li, please look at these two eggs!" Merton handed the two eggs to Li Shimin. One is a duck egg and the other is a Songhua egg coated with sawdust.


    Li Shimin picked up the duck egg, smashed the egg shell, divided the duck egg into two, tasted it and said in surprise, "it''s salty."


    Not only is it salty, but it tastes good. Li Shimin still has more than enough to eat a salted duck egg.


    Merton nodded, reached out and smashed the sawdust and lime shell of the Songhua egg shell, gently peeled it off, revealing the crystal clear egg body inside.


    "This is a salted duck egg made of salt and plant ash, and this is a Songhua egg made of quicklime and sawdust." Merton ordered a plate of cold Songhua eggs from a stall for Li Shimin to taste.


    "Delicious!"


    As soon as the cool and vigorous Songhua egg was imported, Li Shimin immediately brightened his eyes and nodded in praise.


    "Delicious is only one aspect of salted duck eggs and Songhua eggs. More importantly, they can keep eggs and duck eggs for more than half a year. They will not cause the loss of overstock and unsold eggs after too many chickens and ducks, but also increase the price and increase the income of farmers." Merton said, pointing to the salted duck eggs and Songhua eggs on the table.


    "Good!" Li Shimin beamed.


    He didn''t expect Merton to solve the problem he was considering so perfectly. In this way, farmers raise a large number of chickens and ducks. Cocks and ducks grow up and sell directly. Hens and ducks can stay and wait for orders to collect money. If they can sell fresh eggs, they can sell fresh eggs. If they can''t sell them, they can be made into salted duck egg floss eggs, which is not wasted at all. In the long run, it is estimated that as long as farmers are not lazy, Will become richer and richer.


    "Mohism will not hide these two methods!" Li Shimin warned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, Master Li. The next issue of Ink magazine will print the production methods of these two delicacies."


    Li Shimin nodded reassuringly. Merton seems to be unrestrained, but he can distinguish the importance of benefiting the country and the people.


    It can be thought that farmers have no worries at home, and then there will be a wave of breeding outbreak. At that time, the day when people in Datang will eat meat is not far away.


    Li Shimin was in a good mood and took Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang to visit the food city.


    Wide trouser belt, hot fried noodles, all kinds of classic fried dishes! They are specially made into small portions by Mohist children. You can taste all kinds of delicious food for a few Wen.


    Rao is so. All the way down, Li Shimin also yelled for fun. Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang ate almost the same.


    "Wait a minute, young slave and Yuzi! There are still more delicious food left today." Merton couldn''t help reminding Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang.


    "Merton, it''s really better?" Princess Jinyang said reluctantly holding the fried chicken leg. She has a special love for fried chicken. She can''t think of any food better than fried chicken.


    "Don''t worry, it''s better than fried chicken legs!" Merton smiled.


    "Oh!" Princess Jinyang looked forward, and Li Zhi quickly discharged the fried chicken in his hand and waited for the delicious food mentioned by Merton.


    At this time, a sweet and strange fragrance suddenly floated in the audience. When I smelled it, I couldn''t help taking a breath.


    "How fragrant!" said Princess Jinyang.


    Li Zhi was also intoxicated. He couldn''t help but open his legs and walked to the fragrance.


    "What is this?" Li Shimin took a deep breath. He couldn''t help but want to taste the fragrance.


    "This is a new delicacy of Mohism, cake!" Merton said nostalgically, smelling the familiar taste.


    "Cake? Eggs again?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows. As the name suggests, cake must have something to do with eggs.


    "Yes, the secret of cake is on eggs," Merton nodded.


    Squeak!


    Six shops that had been closed were opened at the same time, and a large plate of yellow cakes sent out a strange smell. Cake, which became popular in later generations and captured thousands of children and girls, appeared in Datang for the first time.


    "Coax!"


    The whole food city suddenly became a sensation and immediately swarmed into six stores. The power of cake is the same in any era, so people can''t refuse temptation.


    "It''s delicious!" Princess Jinyang took the first bite and was immediately conquered by the fragrant, soft and sweet food.


    "In the future, I''ll eat it every day!" Li Zhi couldn''t stop talking, and one of the three was destroyed.


    "Unexpectedly, eggs and noodles can make delicious food?" Li Shimin sighed. He couldn''t help tasting one! The greasy taste made his will firm, and he couldn''t help indulging in it.


    "Father! What if you can''t eat it?" after eating five crispy cakes, Princess Jinyang stroked her round belly and looked at the cake pathetically.


    "Yuzi, you can take these cakes back and eat them when you are hungry!" Li Shimin said spoiled.


    "Well!" Princess Jinyang nodded heavily, "the cake that Yuzi wants to learn to make will be eaten by her father and mother every day!"


    "OK! Our sons are the most filial. Do we eat our sons?" Li Shimin couldn''t help joking.


    "I''ll just eat a little!" Princess Jinyang couldn''t help revealing her careful thoughts.


    "Ha ha ha!"


    Li Shimin and Merton couldn''t help laughing.


    "Don''t worry, Yuzi, and then send the secret recipe and tools of the cake to your house!" Merton said quickly before Li Shimin opened his mouth.


    "Well! Merton, it''s very kind of you. Then I won''t let brother nine call you the great devil again!" said Princess Jinyang softly.


    Merton''s face turned black and looked at Li Zhi helplessly.


    "If you have cake to eat, you won''t shout anymore!" Li Zhi said hurriedly, unable to resist the temptation of delicious food.


    "I''ll thank you for that," Merton said with a smile.


    After seeing off Li Shimin and others, Merton couldn''t help smiling knowingly at the crowded Mohist food city. This time, the Mohist food city completely became famous,


    More than that, the cake became popular in Chang''an City, which directly pushed the Mohist food city to the highest point in the food industry. It was not only Lizhi and Princess Jinyang who liked the cake. After tasting it, all the people in the food city fell in love with it, especially after the first batch of people tasted and brought back many cakes, it immediately detonated the taste buds of countless people.


    The whole Chang''an city was a sensation, and countless people flocked to the Mohist Food City for a feast.

 Chapter 172

    In the era of material shortage in the Tang Dynasty, it is not easy for even the citizens of Chang''an city to eat meat.


    All kinds of cheap meat in Mohist Food City have completely ignited the appetite of Chang''an citizens.


    "Delicious but not expensive!"


    With all kinds of delicious food, it is a great enjoyment of life to pack some delicious cakes in paper bags before leaving.


    With the popularity of Mohist Food City, the catering industry in Chang''an city is in mourning!


    Sun YangZheng store is not far from Mohist food city. The popularity of Mohist food city has a disastrous impact on sun YangZheng store.


    In particular, the popularity of fried vegetables in yuzhuangyuan restaurant has made yuzhuangyuan restaurant full of diners who come to admire its reputation,


    In contrast, sun YangZheng''s shop is much more miserable. There are only a few guests at one or two tables.


    "What''s going on these days?"


    In sun YangZheng''s shop, Wang Zhe''s face was gloomy, pointing to the daily accounts of sun YangZheng''s shop these days.


    "Young master, it''s really not a small mistake. It''s not only our sun YangZheng store, but also other hotel businesses in Chang''an city!" Wang Ningcheng, the shopkeeper of sun YangZheng store, said bitterly.


    If ordinary shops are OK, people there don''t pay much attention to taste! As long as it is good and cheap. However, sun YangZheng''s Restaurant entertains people who are either rich or expensive. These people come to dinner to enjoy "we all know that the ingredients in sun YangZheng''s restaurant are top-level, and there can be no problem," Wang Zhe said urgently.


    Illness comes from the mouth and misfortune comes from the mouth. But Jin Fu Xuan''s famous sentence exhorts people to pay attention to food hygiene, but these problems can''t happen at sun YangZheng''s store.


    "The young master doesn''t know. Doctor sun not only puts forward the source of food materials, but also points out that the dishes and chopsticks in the hotel are one of the transmission ways. If a sick person uses the dishes and chopsticks after eating in the hotel, it may also infect other people." Wang Ningcheng said with a bitter smile, explaining the reason why the guest asked for new chopsticks.


    "Hiss!"


    Wang Zhe took a breath. The dishes and chopsticks in sun YangZheng''s shop are the top of the customization. If every guest changes a pair of dishes and chopsticks, sun YangZheng''s shop is expected to lose a lot.


    "Doctor sun has not explained that it is enough to disinfect as long as he cooks in boiling water for five minutes." Wang Zhe pointed to the ink magazine. Of course, Sun Simiao did not just kill the buried owner, but put forward the most economical and affordable proposal.


    "But it seems that all diners don''t trust us. Almost all customers have to go to new chopsticks and ask whether the dishes are disinfected with boiling water!" Wang Ningcheng said bitterly.


    Only then did Wang Zhe understand the meaning of Li Yuanwai''s request for new chopsticks and questioning.


    "It''s nothing? What''s more terrible is that many people think that eating out is likely to infect diseases, and they pass through restaurants instead of entering." Wang Ningcheng said that panic is the reason for the sharp drop in the flow of people in restaurants. Since eating out is such a big risk, it''s better to eat at home.


    "Mozi is killing thousands of enemies and losing 800 of himself!"


    Wang Zhe looked at the empty tables and chairs in sun YangZheng''s shop and couldn''t help but hate to say that he didn''t have a Mohist Food City in mojiazi. What good would it do him.


    He can imagine that this must be the Revenge of the Mohists. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidence that doctor sun''s article was hyped by the Mohist magazine. But what he didn''t understand was that even if he didn''t want to offend and provoke public anger for the sake of the whole sun YangZheng store, the Mohist family would have hurt so many tea shops and restaurants in Chang''an city.


    "Er!"


    Wang Ningcheng looked at the angry Wang Zhe and stopped talking.


    "Say!" Wang Zhe said angrily.


    "As far as I know, the Mohists have launched a new product on the day of ink publication, a very cheap chopsticks, one for a penny, and this kind of disinfection dishes!" Wang Ningcheng had already prepared to deliver a disposable chopsticks and a bulging bag wrapped in paper to Wang Zhe.


    "This is also chopsticks?"


    Wang Zhe stared at the rudimentary chopsticks in his hand. The wood was the cheapest Tung wood. It broke when it was folded gently, and the surface was rough. If he used it at ordinary times, he hated it. Now it has become a magic weapon for the Mohist school to win.


    "Pa!"


    Wang Zhe exerted slight force. The paper bag was broken and made a crisp sound. He easily tore up the paper, revealing a spoon, cup, small bowl and plate inside. It was complete.


    "Young master, I don''t know. This kind of dishes and chopsticks has become very popular in major tea shops and restaurants in Chang''an city. Many restaurants use this kind of dishes and chopsticks. A penny of disposable chopsticks can be spread on the meal money, and this kind of paper wrapped dishes and dishes are sent out by Mohist special personnel. After use, they are taken back by special personnel for professional disinfection. The hotel saves even the small workers who wash the dishes "What''s wrong?" Wang Ningcheng sighed.


    "Don''t you want money for these packaging dishes? The Mohists are so kind?" Wang Zhe sneered.


    "When these dishes are delivered, one Wen is paid for two, and one Wen is directly added to the diner''s head when eating. In this way, the restaurant not only doesn''t lose money, but makes a lot of money." Wang Ningcheng explained.


    "The Mohists are good at calculating!" Wang Zhe said angrily.


    In this way, diners can solve the health problem and eat at ease. Restaurants and Mohists have made money, which is perfect.


    "Young master, why don''t sun YangZheng shop..." Wang Ningcheng said half, and the meaning was already obvious.


    "No, I don''t want you to bow your head to the Mexican family!" Wang Zhe said angrily.


    Wang Ningcheng sighed. His heart was like this. The young master still had this heart.


    "However, I''m afraid the losers have come. Let them solve this little thing first!" Wang Zhe sneered.

 Chapter 173

    "Public loser?"


    Wang Ningcheng suddenly.


    After the Mohist School became famous in Chang''an City, its past has been turned over. In particular, people enjoy talking about the gratitude and resentment between the Mohist School and the public loser. Although Wang Ningcheng is only a shopkeeper, he also knows that the public loser and the Mohist school are sworn enemies. Once the public loser comes to Chang''an City, he will certainly oppose the Mohist school.


    "That fried vegetables...?" Wang Ning became a teacher.


    Even if sun YangZheng''s shop solves the problem of dishes and chopsticks, Mohist cooking will crush sun YangZheng''s shop.


    "Cooking? Is that what you said?" Wang Zhe smiled proudly, took out some rice paper from his arms and handed it to shopkeeper Wang.


    "Is this a recipe?" Wang Ningcheng looked down and said in a surprised voice.


    Wang Ningcheng has been in charge of sun YangZheng''s store for many years. He is familiar with the recipe. Looking at the new recipe in his hand, Wang Ningcheng is in doubt. According to reason, any restaurant with a top secret recipe such as cooking is regarded as a unique skill to press the bottom of the box. How can it come to Wang Zhe''s hand.


    "This......" Wang Ningcheng wondered.


    "Don''t worry, this is the Mohist cooking recipe!" Wang Zhe said with a strange smile.


    When the Mohist School recruited workers on a large scale, he consciously planted many people in the Mohist village. After all, the Mohist School''s performance during this period of time is too dazzling. If ordinary people get one or two, they will be able to be appointed officials and knights. If they are obtained by the aristocratic family, they will be rich for a hundred years. However, the Mohist family seems to be worthless. How can it not make people itch.


    Wang Zhen believes that it is definitely not just the Wang family. There must be many people with intentions in Chang''an city. Taking advantage of this recruitment opportunity, there must be many fine works of various aristocratic families in Chang''an City mixed into the Mojia village and waited for the opportunity.


    Wang Zhe''s person was just assigned to the fish champion building. He successfully obtained the recipe, which surprised Wang Zhe.


    Holding this recipe, Wang Ningcheng was excited and felt very tricky. "Young master, Mohist cooking has just been launched. I''m afraid it will be criticized if we sun YangZheng store can cook it later." Wang Ningcheng frowned.


    Sun YangZheng store is a century old brand after all. Stealing other people''s recipes rashly is a big taboo. I''m afraid it will smash the signboard.


    "Don''t worry! How could I smash the signboard!" Wang Zhe said.


    "But..." while shopkeeper Wang was pleased, he looked at the recipe in his hand! As anxious as a eunuch meets a beautiful woman.


    "However, my young master has sent people to spread this recipe all over the major restaurants in Chang''an city. It''s natural for sun YangZheng store to launch cooking after cooking is popular." Wang Zhe was proud.


    After Wang Zhe got the recipe, although he was annoyed, Wang Zhe didn''t mean to change chopsticks at all. After all, who knows whether the chopsticks used by the other party have infectious roots!


    "The taste is average!" Wang Zhe carefully tasted the three plates of fried vegetables and couldn''t help frowning.


    "Is there a problem with the recipe?" Wang Ningcheng took a new pair of chopsticks and tasted it. He didn''t feel good, let alone as delicious as sought after by the guest population.


    The chef in black tasted it and shook his head and said, "there''s no problem with the recipe. It should be the problem of the pot."


    "Pot?" Wang Zhe didn''t understand.


    The chef in black explained: "the small ones have been made in strict accordance with the recipe. Even if they can''t reach the level of Mohist chefs, they''re not much worse. Young master, you see, some places of this dish have been burnt, and many places are a little raw. Of course they won''t taste good."


    "What kind of pot do you need?" Wang Ningcheng asked.


    "One is very thin, can be lifted with one hand, and is heated evenly, and the surface is smooth, which is conducive to stir fry the new pot." the chef in black looked at his heavy pot and shook his head, Zou Mei said.


    "Then go and buy it!" Wang Zhe shouted.


    "Er!" Wang Ningcheng and the chef in black looked at each other.


    "Childe, according to my years of experience as a cook, there is no such pot!" the chef in black shook his head.


    The iron quality of this era can''t go up at all. If the bottom of the pot is too thin, it is easy to be damaged, not a few times at all.


    "What about the fish champion building?" Wang Zhe asked.


    "If not surprisingly, the Mohist school may adopt a new pot!" said the chef in black.


    "Er, ER!" Wang Zhe was speechless.


    The person who arranged for him to make a recipe has been exposed. Are you still stealing a pot?


    Public losers should be able to make pots! Well, it will.


    As Wang Zhe said, no one can refuse the cooking recipe. When major restaurants really experiment cooking, they find that they still lack a good pot.


    However, Rao is so. All kinds of crude versions of fried dishes have appeared in major restaurants. Fried dishes have instantly become the mainstream of the catering industry in Chang''an city. Although the taste is not as good as the fish champion building, it is better than the cheap price, which has also attracted many people.


    "Shopkeeper, the time is ripe!"


    In the fish champion building, Xu Jie looked at the rows of butterfly frying pans in front of him and said excitedly. Now most restaurants in Chang''an have launched their frying dishes! Cooking has become the most popular word in the catering industry in Chang''an city. Anyone who hasn''t heard of it and tasted it seems to be out of date.


    At this time, the Mohist School launched the most suitable iron pot for cooking, coupled with the menu, we can imagine how popular it is.


    yes!


    Merton never thought of making a lot of money from cooking as he did in the Song Dynasty. His goal was to fry the pot from beginning to end.


    Even the spread of the menu was his intention. Otherwise, how could a new outsider come into contact with the core of the fish champion Houchu?

 Chapter 174

    In Mexico hospital,


    Merton nodded and bowed in front of Sun Simiao, with a face that recognized beating and punishment. The prodigal son looked back as clever as he could be,.


    "What sun taught me is that I must keep it in mind!"


    This time, Merton used Sun Simiao''s article to stir up such a storm in Chang''an city. All the major restaurants in Chang''an City mourned and spread to Sun Simiao''s ears. How can he not make him angry.


    "You! Although your intention is good, this disposable dishes and chopsticks can greatly reduce the probability of some infectious diseases such as wind and cold, but doctors are just emerging. It is a critical moment and they must not participate in other messy things." Sun Simiao said with a tiger face.


    Sun Simiao was gratified that doctors had become prosperous. After these women''s medicine became successful, coupled with the model of Mohist hospital, medicine would be able to go to a big level. The prosperity of medicine was the reason why he was willing to stay in Chang''an city.


    However, the responsibility of doctors is to save the lives and heal the wounded, which requires doctors to maintain absolute neutrality in order to convince everyone. If doctors rashly favor one side, they will lose the impartiality of doctors.


    "Brother sun''s lesson is that Mo boy should have been scolded long ago. The last time I published an article on close relatives'' marriage, it caused a lot of trouble." Hua Yuan glared at Mo ton and helped him.


    "The advantages and disadvantages of Ink magazine are clear at a glance. It can not only promote quickly, but also cause great fluctuations. This time, it''s lucky that you came up with a solution in time, otherwise it will cause much trouble." Sun Simiao thought about the situation that there are few restaurants in the Tang Dynasty. He couldn''t help laughing bitterly. If you really get there, I''m afraid even Mo hospital can''t escape the relationship.


    Originally, he only knew how to cure diseases and save people, but when he came to Chang''an, he found that medicine had such power. A small discovery could cause such great unrest among the people.


    "Yes!"


    Hua Yuan nodded with emotion. He had a deep understanding of the storm of the last close relative marriage.


    At the beginning, Hua Yuan signed the name of next of kin marriage, which was also the harm of next of kin marriage. However, since he was invited to teach medical skills at the women''s Medical College, he accidentally saw Princess Changle and suddenly burst into a cold sweat,


    At that time, he saw Princess Changle dressed as a man in the Mexican house. When he thought of some rumors in the market, he immediately understood all the process. One of his articles inadvertently participated in the secret of the royal family. It''s strange that his Highness the prince added a large amount of assistance to the Mexican hospital. That''s why.


    However, compared with the last time, Merton''s handling this time is excellent, limiting the storm to a very small range and handling it in a short time.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly and apologized to the second old man one after another. Especially last time, he was indeed a little reckless. Fortunately, he spent it safely in the end.


    "Don''t worry, if you want me to publish medical articles in the future, I must consult with you in advance." Merton promised repeatedly.


    Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan were a little pale.


    "By the way, the last time you said yes about the ambulance, how did it go?" Hua Yuan suddenly changed the topic and solved the siege for Merton.


    After all, Merton grew up watching him, and although Merton''s actions these two times are selfish, they can be regarded as a good thing for the present and the future. One has solved the harm of close relative marriage, and the other has greatly reduced the harm of infectious diseases.


    "The ambulance has been fully built in Mojia village and will be sent to Mojia hospital soon!" Merton looked at Hua with gratitude and hurried down the slope.


    "How could it be so slow?" old Hua frowned. According to his idea, with so many horses in Mojia village, wouldn''t it be enough to match with a few carriages?


    When he said, "where the Tao lies, although thousands of people, I will go!" Sun Simiao said firmly with his eyes shining.


    "Like-minded!"


    They laughed loudly, and suddenly a feeling of sympathy came into being.


    What is it to disturb the marriage of the royal family and make the major restaurants in Chang''an cry? As long as it is conducive to medicine and worthy of heart, it doesn''t matter.


    If they were allowed to choose again, would Hua Lao helplessly watch a young girl jump into the abyss of eternal disaster, and would sun Lao helplessly watch countless diseases spread wantonly among all kinds of dishes and chopsticks.


    Of course not.

 Chapter 175

    "Hoo!"


    Out of the hospital, Merton breathed a sigh of relief.


    This time, there was indeed a suspicion of using sun Lao. Merton had to explain in person. Fortunately, sun Lao was not really angry.


    "The boss is wronged!" seeing Merton coming out, Xu Jie quickly greeted him and said.


    "It doesn''t matter. The advantages of this storm outweigh the disadvantages for doctors. How can sun know! He won''t really blame me." Merton shook his head.


    Although the Mohists launched disposable dishes and chopsticks to retaliate against the Wang family, it is more important to promote food hygiene. Merton has a clear conscience, otherwise sun would not let him go so lightly.


    "How are the major restaurants in Chang''an? Has the passenger flow resumed?" Merton asked.


    "Back home, the major restaurants in Chang''an City used disposable dishes and chopsticks one after another, and most of their business has resumed. However, the sun YangZheng store of the Wang family did not use the disposable dishes and chopsticks produced by the Mohist family, but wanted to be the disposable dishes and chopsticks produced by the craftsmen they found." Xu Jie frowned.


    Merton waved his hands carelessly. The disposable bowls and chopsticks were large in quantity and thin in profit, and there was no technical content. It was not surprising that there were imitations. However, in order to take into account the face, Wang Zhe''s own production was not worth the loss, which was a small pit for him.


    "And the man who leaked the cooking recipe has found out that it is the Wang family. It seems that it must be the young master of the Wang family who spread the cooking recipe all over Chang''an!" Xu Jie broke another news.


    "It seems that the Wang family really helped us a lot! The Mohist cooking spread all over Chang''an City in a short time, and just took the opportunity to quit our frying pan." Merton said with a smile.


    From the beginning to the end, Merton has a bottom line, that is, as long as it can promote the technology on a large scale and benefit the people, the Mohist school is definitely not private. Therefore, Merton never thought about controlling cooking to capture huge profits, and frying the pot is his goal.


    Outside the Mohist boutique, Xu Jie looked at the striking eight characters on both sides of the Mohist boutique and said with sincere admiration that the short eight characters directly raised the status of Mohist School infinitely. Compared with other shops, Xu Jie stood out from the crowd.


    Merton smiled and looked at the high traffic in the store. One by one, he couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction.


    "If Mojia village wants to have a foothold in the business community of Chang''an City, it must achieve that people have no me, people have my excellence and people have my excellence. This is the invincible truth of the business community!" Merton said.


    "Xu has been taught!" Xu Jie sighed.


    At this time, a middle-aged man dressed as a shopkeeper came in a hurry with a few guys.


    "Mohist boutique, it seems here!" the middle-aged shopkeeper wiped his sweat and said.


    "It''s shopkeeper Liu of Wangjiang building! Xu Mou is polite." Xu Jie smiled and greeted him. Wangjiang building is also a famous restaurant in Chang''an city. Xu Jie was a regular customer when he was not bankrupt, and he was familiar with shopkeeper Liu.


    "Shopkeeper Xu almost missed me. I thought the pot shop should be in tiehang. I didn''t expect you to open it here." shopkeeper Liu gasped.


    "Thank you, shopkeeper Liu, for running errands. The Mojia pots were produced directly in Mojia village and transported to Chang''an city. They were not built directly in tiehang, so they chose here," Xu Jie explained.


    Most of the shops in Dongshi are in the front row, and the back row is the living area and production area. The iron shop is the most biased because it often makes iron and has a noisy voice.


    The Mohist frying pan does not need to be built in the railway line, so it directly chose a prime location near the east city leveling and Standards Department.


    "Shopkeeper Xu can still do business!" shopkeeper Liu complimented Xu Jie.


    "Where, where, shopkeeper Liu came here today for frying pan!" Xu Jie greeted a waiter, took out a butterfly pig iron frying pan and handed it to shopkeeper Liu.


    "So thin?" shopkeeper Liu looked at the strange new pot, picked up the long wooden handle and felt the weight in his hand. He could easily lift it with one hand.


    "Shopkeeper Liu, don''t look at the thin pot. It''s first-class in terms of hardness, and it saves firewood and labor! It''s evenly heated. This is the kind of frying pan used in the fish champion building!" Xu Jie explained.


    "Save firewood?" shopkeeper Liu''s eyes lit up.


    Chang''an city is not like the countryside where firewood can be seen everywhere. It mainly depends on charcoal, charcoal, and woodcutters and villagers around Chang''an city to sell in the city. The daily carbon used in big restaurants such as Wangjiang building is not a small number. Even if it can save 10%, it is not a small number.


    "If I were someone else, I would doubt three points, but since shopkeeper Xu introduced me personally, Liu absolutely believed it!" shopkeeper Liu was very happy and ordered ten sets of frying pans on the spot.


    "Brother Liu, don''t worry, little brother, there are still many good things that haven''t been introduced?" Xu Jie stopped shopkeeper Liu who had to pay for the bill, revealing the weasel''s thief who stole the chicken laughing.


    This time, Mojia village not only produced frying pans, but also soup pots and steamers. These pots are divided into large pots, medium pots and small pots, as well as all kinds of knives, spoons and shovels. After a turn, shopkeeper Liu couldn''t lose sight. Even shopkeeper Liu even saw all kinds of new steamers, which are special steamers for Goubuli steamed stuffed bun shop in Mojia village, I didn''t expect to sell it here.


    "Xu Caishen is worthy of Xu Caishen. Liu originally wanted to cook a few woks, but he almost changed the back kitchen." shopkeeper Liu smiled bitterly. He still didn''t resist Xu Jie''s temptation and changed the back kitchen almost all over.


    Wangjiang tower itself is a top hotel, which itself represents the status. Of course, the best should be used. However, he has not suffered a loss. Every kitchen utensil of Mohism is worth the money.

 Chapter 176

    "Brother Liu, don''t worry!" just when shopkeeper Liu made up his mind and decided to exchange blood for Wangjiang building, he suddenly heard Xu Jie''s voice and couldn''t help shaking his heart. Just now this sentence made him pay a lot of money.


    "Brother Xu''s business experience is really brilliant!" shopkeeper Liu smiled bitterly and turned back to his figure.


    "Produced by Mohist school, it must be a high-quality product and will not disappoint brother Liu." Xu Jie smiled proudly, stretched out his hand, and a waiter handed over a jar.


    Xu Jie reached out and opened the jar, revealing the snow-white crystals inside.


    "This is... Snow salt?" shopkeeper Liu looked at the snow-white salt and said in surprise.


    The gratitude and resentment between the Mohists and the Wangs some time ago was widespread in the business circles of Chang''an city. At that time, when the Wangs in Taiyuan broke the fine salt of the fish champion building, they had already sentenced the fish champion building to death. Many restaurants were happy that there was no competitor, but they could not help but die and feel sad.


    No one knows the importance of fine salt in a restaurant. It''s very important from grade to taste. If the Wang family can break the fine salt in the fish champion restaurant today, who can guarantee that they won''t break their own.


    But who could have thought that Mohist school could come back from the dead and extract the purest salt from crude salt - Snow salt, which turned the world around at once. The snow salt in yuzhuangyuan restaurant was packed in small jars and placed on the dining table. The major restaurants in Chang''an city had already received a lot of samples. Shopkeeper Liu recognized at a glance that the snow salt in the jar was full of praise from his chef.


    "Brother Liu, this cooking is not as good as boiling soup. The requirement for salt is first-class. Stir fry with this snow salt and melt it in the pot with a gentle spoonful. It''s extremely accurate. But if you use coarse salt, I''m afraid the dishes are cooked and the salt hasn''t melted! When the customer bites the salt, isn''t it hitting the sign?" Xu Jie immediately turned into a chef and said.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Of course, it is impossible to use coarse salt in Wangjiang building. Both sides know that the most direct competitor of snow salt is Yuncheng fine salt of Taiyuan Wangjia.


    However, as Xu Jie said, cooking really needs fine salt. Wouldn''t it be better to have better snow salt? Moreover, the asking price of Yuncheng fine salt of Taiyuan Wang''s family is too cruel. In the past, there was no choice. Most hotels had to pinch their noses.


    Now with Mohist snow salt, major restaurants have another choice. The crisis of fish champion breaking salt will never happen to them again, and maybe they can take the opportunity to bargain and reduce costs.


    The two old business foxes didn''t say anything and reached a tacit understanding in an instant.


    As a result, shopkeeper Liu, who came to buy several pots, suddenly bought goods that can''t be pulled down by a carriage. Looking at all kinds of pots and utensils piled up in front of him, shopkeeper Liu couldn''t help being silly. He didn''t use enough with a few guys!


    "Don''t worry, brother Liu! As long as it''s a big customer, Mojia village in Chang''an city will deliver goods to the door!" Xu Jie stretched out his hand and immediately two carriages came to him.


    Mojia village has changed its guns now. Twenty carriages have been prepared in the Mojia boutique alone. Several guys load the car directly, and there is still room for shopkeeper Liu and others to go back by car.


    "Drive!" a Mohist boy drank softly. The carriage started slowly and pulled away.


    "Brother Liu, don''t worry!"


    Hearing the familiar voice, shopkeeper Liu suddenly changed his face and whispered: "don''t stop, go!"


    He was afraid that if he stopped again, it would not be enough to point out the two carriages?


    When the carriage slowly came out of the East market, shopkeeper Liu was relieved and looked at the new pots and tools full of the car, which was both happy and distressed for money.


    "Ha ha! Shopkeeper Xu is really good at doing business." shopkeeper Liu smiled when he saw the driving Mohist children looking at him curiously.


    "Hmm!" the driving Mohist children nodded with deep understanding, "but the shopkeeper finally made a mistake. You don''t want the free menu given by shopkeeper Xu!"


    "Recipe? Stir fry recipe?" shopkeeper Liu was stunned when he heard the speech.


    "Yes! All big customers in our store will send a fried recipe free of charge. If others, they will have to spend money to buy it. It almost covers most of the delicious food in the Mojia food city." the driving Mojia village boys are the excellent children of the transportation team dispatched by Mojia village. Each of them has been trained for a long time and is very talkative. They often talk about Mojia village with pride.


    "Ah!" shopkeeper Liu was stunned. He didn''t expect that he would refuse such an important recipe. It''s not sure whether he secretly got the cooking recipe, and it''s just like that. How can he stand it when he heard the driving guy say that there are so many recipes.


    "Stop!"


    Shopkeeper Liu shouted.


    "Whoa!"


    The driving Mohist children drank for a long time, and the well-trained carriage stopped quickly.


    "You wait for me for a while, and I''ll go to brother Xu to talk about the past!" shopkeeper Liu said with a red face.


    "Hey, hey!"


    At this moment, even the clerk of mowangjiang building couldn''t help but lower his head and snicker. Just now, shopkeeper Xu called you to send you something. You buried your head and left. Now you''re not going back obediently.


    Looking at the returning shopkeeper Liu, Merton couldn''t help snickering.


    "Shopkeeper Xu is a good means." Merton praised sincerely.


    "The owner is flattered! The goods in Mojia village are exquisite, and any qualified shopkeeper can sell them." Xu Jie sighed.


    I have to say that Mojia village gave him too many surprises. It was his wisest decision to accept Merton''s invitation.


    Not only shopkeeper Liu, but almost all the people who came to the Mohist boutique returned with full loads. Twenty carriages took turns to fight, but the supply was still in short supply. More anxious customers drove their carriages to buy and transport themselves.


    A magical chemical reaction has taken place among the three commodities of pot ware, menu and snow salt, and the Mohist boutique has become popular in Dongshi.


    "The way of paoding! It''s really a Mohist!"


    Outside the Mohist boutique,


    A group of passers-by with strange costumes attracted customers coming and going. All of them were dressed in coarse linen and carrying all kinds of carpenter tools. The leader was a strong man of about 30 years old and eight feet tall.


    "Public loser!"


    Merton looked at the wood saw sign on the leader''s clothes and couldn''t help his face.


    "This must be Merton, the son of Mohism who is famous in Chang''an city! I''m polite to the public loser Hong!" the strong man led by him made a complex set of etiquette.


    Merton''s face changed. This set of etiquette was trained countless times when he was a child. He thought he had no chance to use it. Unexpectedly, he met people who used the same eating etiquette here today.


    "Merton of Mohist school, I''ve seen the public loser!"


    Merton also a standard etiquette.


    In the bustling east city, Merton and gongshuhong''s strange behavior immediately attracted people''s attention.


    "Here comes the public loser!"


    Everyone was in an uproar.

 Chapter 177

    "Who is the public loser? Is it very powerful?"


    Among the crowd, a strong man heard the crowd exclaim and didn''t understand.


    "Gongshu class, the ancestor of Gongshu family, is also called Luban. It is the ancestor of carpenters. Now the saws, rulers and ink sticks used by carpenters were invented by Gongshu class, the ancestor of Gongshu family." a big bellied middle-aged man explained excitedly that someone recognized Xia Xiao, the owner of Shuji color silk shop.


    "I have to deal with it. It''s my friend!" suddenly the strong man.


    "It''s more than just a colleague. There is still a grudge between Gongshu class, the ancestor of Gongshu family, and the then Mohist giant. It is said that during the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, the powerful state of Chu was ready to attack the state of song. It invited Gongshu class, the ancestor of Gongshu family, to make a lot of siege weapons. When Mo Zhai, the Mohist giant, heard about it, he set out from the state of Lu overnight, walked for ten days and nights, and finally arrived in the state of Chu In front of the king, the two men used clothes belts as the city and wood boards as the tools to attack the city. They fought nine times in a row and finally lost all the public losers. The king of Chu saw that the gains and losses of attacking the state of song were not worth the losses, and finally cancelled attacking the state of song! "Xia Dongjia looked at the eyes of the people and said the gratitude and resentment between Mohist and public losers.


    "Mohist non attack!"


    "Save a country on your own!"


    "Mozi is so considerate of the world and loves the people!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the people present, whether heard or not, were involuntarily moved by Mozi''s style. As an ordinary people, they instinctively disliked war and consciously brought them into Mozi''s just behavior of supporting the weak and resisting the strong, which was also the reason for the great development of Mozi in the Warring States period.


    Gongshuhong''s face twitched when he heard the comments of the people around him. Because of this, every time they mentioned gongshuhong, they always lowered the head of Mohist school. Behind him, all the children of gongshuhong also looked angry.


    When the public losers came out of the mountain this time, in addition to being unwilling to be lonely, the more important thing was to hear the Wang family say that the Mohist School reappeared Chang''an and the wind and water rose, which made them have a higher mind.


    "We''ll see a true chapter in our hands today for the unfinished battle of our ancestors." Gong Shuhong said solemnly.


    Behind him, many public losers'' children couldn''t help raising their chests and looking full of war.


    The Mohist children who heard the news also stood behind Merton. Tie an was on full alert and was ready to take action at any time. The Gongshu Hong opposite was too big a threat to him.


    "When is it time to repay each other? What''s the point of mentioning the grievances and grievances thousands of years ago now?" Merton said with a bitter smile.


    "Meaning, of course, is meaningful. When the public loser defeats the Mohist school, it is the time to understand gratitude and resentment." Gong Shuhong said decisively.


    "I won''t keep my hand on purpose," Merton said in a deep voice, which is related to the reputation of Mohism and the greatest respect for public losers.


    Gong Shuhong also looked solemn and said, "the future is long. I hope the contemporary giants of Mohism can give me more advice!"


    After that, he led the sons of public losers to grow up.


    "I''m not a mogul!"


    Before Merton had time to say this, Gongshu Hong had left only his back.


    "What? The Mohist family is a contemporary mogul!" the onlookers were in an uproar.


    "Mozi is only fifteen years old, but he is a sect leader?"


    Most people call Merton the Mohist family. They all know that it''s just a joke, but they never think about the Mohist giants.


    "How could this be possible?" a hostage asked. Did the Mohists really let a young man play the role of a giant.


    "How impossible, don''t you see that the public loser has determined that Merton is a giant?" someone retorted.


    Everyone talked and looked up at Merton one by one, with an exclamation on his face. In ordinary people, a 15-year-old boy was just ignorant, and the MOH family had become a sect leader.


    Merton sighed in his heart. He wanted to explain, but when he saw the eyes of the people, he knew that the yellow mud had fallen on his crotch, not Xiang but Xiang.


    Soon, the news that the Mohist school was a contemporary Mohist giant spread all over Chang''an City, and there was an uproar everywhere.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Of course you are not a mogul!"


    In the Mo mansion, Lao Zhang sneered at the news.


    "The great masters of Mohism must be personally identified by the last great master, have the keepsake of Mohism inheritance, and be jointly recommended by Xiangli''s ink, dengling''s ink, Xiangfu''s ink and the three schools of ink." Lao Zhang said.


    Merton thought for a moment. His father didn''t leave anything for himself, let alone any inheritance keepsake. As for Xiangli''s ink, dengling''s ink and Xiangfu''s ink, they have disappeared for many years.


    "Moreover, the masters of Mohism must cultivate both civil and military skills, be diligent and frugal, practice everything personally, prosper the interests of the world, eliminate the harm of the world, and do not hesitate to die generously in case of injustice. How many do you think you have?" Li Yi also added.


    After learning that the public loser appeared in Chang''an City and met Merton, he immediately pushed off all the important tasks and rushed to Merton''s house at the first time.


    "Er!"


    Merton buried his head almost under the table.


    "But only you can be a giant of Mohism. Mohism has declined so far. It took you only half a year to make Mohism stand firm in Chang''an city. If you are not a giant, who will be the giant!" Hua said with his mouth tilted.


    Lao Zhang, Uncle Li and uncle Fu nodded one after another.


    "Me!"


    Merton suddenly felt the mountain of pressure on himself.


    "But a Mohist keepsake?" Merton subconsciously declined.


    "Don''t you inherit Mozi''s secret? That''s a token of Mohism, and it''s passed on by word of mouth!" Lao Zhang blurted out.


    "Er!"


    Merton was speechless. He didn''t expect to pit himself in order to fulfill his lie.


    "The joint recommendation of the three inks!"


    "It''s still a question whether the three factions have passed down. Besides, there''s no objection?" Li Yi opened his mouth.


    "He is a man of both civil and military skills, thrifty and practical..." Merton subconsciously shook his head. He can''t suffer so much.


    "I think that''s the standard of choosing a giant. If you become a giant, you has the final say," said Mr.


    Merton thought for a long time, and finally found that whether he admitted it or not, he had become a de facto giant of Mohism. Since he crossed the Mohist village and was called a Mohist disciple, he had undertaken the important task of saving Mohism.


    When he personally led the team into Chang''an City, walked at the forefront of the team and erected the Mohist flag, he was a Mohist giant in the hearts of many children of Mohist village.

 Chapter 178

    "It seems that the disposable dishes and chopsticks in sun YangZheng''s shop are the pen of the public loser?" Lao Zhang frowned.


    He personally designed and manufactured disposable chopsticks. Of course, he knew that there was not much technical content in them, so he could defeat ordinary craftsmen. Of course, this problem would not be taken into account by the public losers who could compete with the Mohist School for many years.


    Li Yi nodded and said with a frozen face: "the public losers are not good! They are together with the Taiyuan Wang family!"


    Although the public loser, like the Mohist school, has also declined to the extreme, after all, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse. With the support of the Taiyuan Wang family, he will be able to make a comeback. At that time, he will be a strong enemy of the Mohist school.


    "No wonder Gongshu Hong personally appeared to identify Merton as a Mohist giant. Only by defeating the Mohist giant can Gongshu recover its glory. The stronger the Mohist, the more it can show the strength of Gongshu. The more hostile the public loser is to Mohist, the greater the help of the king''s family will be." Lao Zhang suddenly realized that he knew that Gongshu openly appeared in Chang''an city, Challenge the intention of Mohism.


    "Public defeat? It must not be easy!" Li Yi said solemnly.


    "It''s easy to be a smart man! Public losers have declined to the extreme. Seeing the resurgence of Mohism, how can public losers fall behind? Public loser hong must know that only Mohism exists can public losers show their status." Merton analyzed that, from a certain point of view, there is a certain overlap and conflict between Mohism and public losers in their expertise.


    According to his observation, gongshuhong is not a reckless man. The children of gongshuhong behind him wear simple clothes and look miserable. They are obviously very poor. They are obviously not much better than the Mohist school six months ago., For a family whose food and clothing are difficult to solve, the gratitude and resentment of ancestors thousands of years ago is not a very urgent thing.


    "Up to now, only soldiers have come to block the water and cover the earth." old Hua frowned. Now doctors and Mohists are not old enough to deal with any challenges.


    "Don''t worry! Misfortune brings happiness and misfortune. The arrival of public losers is not only bad. With the restraint of public losers, I believe some people are happy to see this situation! Relax their hostility to Mohism." Merton shook his head.


    Since the Mohist School appeared in Chang''an City and achieved such dazzling results, it has already caused some people''s uneasiness. With the public loser as the opponent, the Mohist School''s situation may be better.


    "But even so, we can''t be careless. We must always pay attention to the every move of the public loser," Li Yi reminded.


    People can''t help nodding, which is also very necessary.


    The public loser didn''t hide his whereabouts. It''s easy to find out, and it''s not far away. It''s in the carpenter''s shop in Dongshi.


    "Dangdang!"


    With the help of several public losers'' children, the public loser Hong assembled a brand-new Qu Yuan plow.


    "The Mohist Quyuan plow is really a superb work!" Gong Shuhong sighed with emotion, touching the round bars of the Quyuan plow.


    As a master craftsman, of course, he can see how great the Quyuan plow is. It saves labor, materials and labor. The integration of the center of gravity of the whole Quyuan plow has almost reached the peak of ploughing.


    The Mohist Quyuan plow was only a few months old, far from popularizing the whole Tang Dynasty. Before the public losers came out of the mountain, although they mainly worked and had their own land, the cultivated pears they used were made by themselves. Although they were better than ordinary cultivated pears, they were far inferior to the Quyuan plow in front of them because of art.


    "The master of the house is a little too high about Mohism. The Quyuan plow is really good, but the workmanship is too poor. Compared with the Quyuan plow in the master''s hand, it is very crude." a strong young man of about 20 years old, named Gongshu wheel, looked down at the scattered original Quyuan plow, Such crude workmanship can''t even compare with the ten-year-old child of the public loser.


    "That''s the master''s craftsmanship. It''s uncanny. Let alone Mohism, who can match the whole Tang Dynasty." the losers on one side complimented one after another.


    Public losers and Mohists have roughly the same rules for selecting leaders. They all choose the best. The selection method of public losers is to comment on carpentry. In terms of technology, public losers are the most powerful.


    Gong Shuhong compared the two Quyuan plows, shook his head and said, "what''s the use of high craftsmanship? No matter how high and exquisite the Quyuan plow is, it can''t cultivate more than two mu of land. Although the Quyuan plow of Mohism is rough, its workmanship is simple, strong and durable, and it''s enough for farming."


    Since Gongshu Hong can be the owner of Gongshu family, of course, he does not rely entirely on his skills, and his vision is not bad. Compared with Gongshu family''s pursuit of exquisite technology, Mohist technology pursues minimalism, and makes tools with the least wood. Of course, the cost is surprisingly low. If he sells Quyuan plows at the same price, Gongshu family is expected to starve to death.


    "Why should the owner of the house raise the prestige of others and destroy his own?" the public loser refused.


    "Mohist school has been hidden for thousands of years, and Mohist school is famous in Chang''an city. If we can''t know ourselves and enemies and really know our opponents, how can we talk about surpassing Mohist School and revitalizing public losers." Gongshu Hong stared at the public loser.


    "Yes! Master!" although the public loser was not satisfied, he still bowed his head and was taught.


    The children of other public losers also nodded one after another, and there was no slightest contempt in their eyes. They couldn''t be too careful about the famous Mohist school.


    "Besides, Lu Ding, a traitor, can be made a great general. Now that our Gongshu family is officially out of the mountain, why worry about major events?" Gongshu Hong encouraged.


    "Yes, besides, the Taiyuan Wangs have promised that they will fully support the public losers. At that time, the public losers will be able to rise again." the public loser wheel said excitedly.


    Lu Ding was a traitor driven out by them. He couldn''t even use the loser''s surname. He could become an official in Chang''an City, not to mention them.


    Looking at the eager public loser''s children, public loser Hong couldn''t help smiling. If public losers want to get support, they must realize their own value.


    A set of simple chopstick making equipment has been exchanged for a shop in the east of Chang''an city. How to do it and how to be cost-effective. Gongshu Hong increasingly feels that it is a wise decision to face up to Mohism. Only Mohism is strong can it reflect the value of Gongshu.


    "Father, it''s bad!" a 15-year-old boy hurried in and said in a hurry.


    "Hao''er! What''s the matter?" Gong Shuhong looked at the young man and said anxiously. This man is his son Gong Shuhao.


    "Mohist school?... Mohist Journal..." public loser Hao Ran in a hurry and stammered on his face.


    "Mohism? Did Mohism bully the door?" the public loser suddenly got up, and the children of other public losers gathered one after another with a common hatred on their face.


    "No... you see?" Gongshu Hao was speechless and handed the ink magazine to Gongshu Hong.


    This is a supplement to a leaflet with several big words: "the public loser family is coming."


    "Master, did the Mohists speak ill of us!" the public transport wheel waited anxiously.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head strangely. Not only did the supplement of Ink magazine not have any bad words about Gongshu, but also highly praised all the inventions of Gongshu class and the contribution made to human progress from a very fair position. He encouraged the public losers to make further efforts and continue to contribute to Datang with an expectant tone.


    When Gongshu Hong looked strange, he passed the ink magazine to Gongshu wheel and other public losers'' children.


    It''s strange that the Mohists should say good things for the public losers.

 Chapter 179

    "The carpenter''s ancestor lost the class!"


    "I thought the public losers had been helping the tyrants and bullying the weak. I didn''t expect to do such a thing to benefit the country and the people."


    "Public losers are so powerful that no wonder they can rank among the hundreds of schools."


    "That is, the giant ruler and ink bucket. Which carpenter doesn''t use it anymore!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, the reputation of the public loser suddenly became popular in Chang''an City, and its reputation was at the height of the sun.


    In particular, the carpenter masters in Chang''an City were so excited that they immediately visited the loser for several consecutive days and learned the unique craftsmanship of the loser, the carpenter''s ancestor family.


    "The public loser really deserves his reputation. I''m making a fool of myself!" an old carpenter in his fifties, but still strong, bowed to public loser Hong and said with heartfelt admiration.


    "You''re welcome, master Lin!" Gong Shuhong replied.


    After several days of competition, he was greatly shocked. Although the public losers were better after thousands of years of accumulation, the craftsmen and masters in Chang''an city also had their own strengths, and the gap between the two was not large.


    "Ah! Even the master carpenter Lin of the Lin family carpentry shop is willing to lose!" some people in the carpentry shop recognize the identity of an old carpenter. He is one of the few old carpenters in Chang''an City, and his disciples are all over Chang''an city.


    "What''s this? It''s Li Shimin''s face. He looked at Li Chengqian more. As an heir to the emperor, if Li Chengqian can only see the advantages of people close to him, it''s not a good thing. Fortunately, Li Chengqian was not blinded by the righteousness of friends.


    Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin''s expression, gritted his teeth and continued: "according to the secret code of the Imperial Palace, in the battle in the court of the state of Chu, Gongshu Zi lost nine games in a row. Gongshu Zi said," I know why I''m away from my son, I don''t speak. "Zi Mozi also said," I know why I''m away from me, I don''t speak. "When the king of Chu asked the reason, Zi Mozi said:" the intention of Gongshu Zi is just to kill my ministers.


    The Mohist school has ink magazines, which can make the public loser famous in Chang''an city overnight. If the public loser does something unjust, the Mohist school can certainly ruin the public loser''s reputation overnight. I guess this is both the intention of Mohist reconciliation and the intention of warning. "


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Li Chengqian didn''t disappoint him. Since Li Chengqian walked normally, he behaved more and more like a qualified prince.


    "Little catfish with sharp mouth and teeth!" pound added with a smile.


    Li Shimin immediately laughed. Merton, who owns Ink magazine, is indeed in line with the name of sharp mouth and sharp teeth.


    "Although the catfish is weak and small, it also has full teeth. Today''s Mohist school is no longer the fish on the sticky board to be slaughtered by others. Anyone who makes up his mind should also consider the pain of being bitten. Wise, you should learn from Merton." Li Shimin pointed out that as an emperor fighting for the world, he is a tough man in his bones. Merton, a small catfish with sharp teeth, is very in line with his appetite.


    "What my father taught me is!" Li Chengqian was taught.


    "Salt must be less white than snow, but snow loses salt."


    Li Shimin looked at the advertisement of snow and salt in Ink magazine, and an inexplicable smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. It is estimated that the Taiyuan Wang family is the first lesson bitten by the catfish of Mohism!

 Chapter 180

    "Salt must be less white than snow, but snow loses salt and tastes salty!"


    When the advertising words of snow and salt in Mojia village came out, many readers frowned at this wonderful poem.


    "What kind of poem is this? It''s nonsense!" there are countless learned people in Chang''an city. They feel strange when they see this poem from the bottom of their hearts, but it must be a good poem, but it''s really inappropriate to compare it with snow and salt.


    "According to the literary talent of Mohist school, it shouldn''t be!" many people doubt that although there are not many poems written by Merton, which are peerless famous sentences, it is impossible to make such a mistake.


    "No, this must not be the original sentence of this poem!"


    In the pan restaurant, sun Ju ordered to invite friends, ordered a slow table of fried vegetables and enjoyed it slowly. He frowned at this strange poem.


    Sun Juren took a bite of fried vegetables, and the delicious taste was immediately filled with taste buds. It was a great enjoyment in life.


    "By the way, Lao pan, do you use Mohist snow salt?" sun Juren suddenly asked.


    "What''s more? The secret skill of Mohist cooking, made with Mohist snow salt, tastes the most authentic!" shopkeeper Pan said proudly.


    Needless to say, this must be Xu Jie''s idea. When he asked Mo San to print the menu, it must be mixed with private goods.


    In fact, Mo San has done even better. Even vinegar, soy sauce and even ingredients have done a lot of advertising, and the advertising fee is simply soft.


    "It''s really delicious!" sun Juren praised sincerely. After eating fried vegetables, he found that he had eaten pig food in the past.


    A table of friends also praised again and again. After three rounds of wine, they put their conversation on Merton''s strange poem.


    "This word is definitely not the style of Mohism!" sun Juren, a slightly fat friend who is also a scholar, affirmed after carefully reading this poem.


    "Of course not. It''s already written in the ink magazine. If anyone can guess what''s in the poem instead of salt! Write it and give it to the newspaper boy. At that time, the Mohist school will randomly select the top 100 winners and give each one ten kilograms of snow salt." shopkeeper pan exaggerated.


    People found that today''s Ink magazine actually has a receipt, which reads this line of poetry, the word salt is replaced by a blank space, and there is a reward scheme below. This kind of award-winning advertisement with rotten answers in later generations "Hey!"


    Sun Juren''s friend also sighed. Indeed, he had to give up the word.


    "I guess it''s porcelain!"


    "I guess it''s rice!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone''s brain hole was wide open. Suddenly, white items were put out to guess. They thought their guess was correct. Sometimes they blushed and argued.


    The same thing soon spread in Chang''an city. Merton''s unique advertisement instantly caused a national carnival. Whether it was ten kilograms of snow and salt or being able to participate in peerless poems, it was exciting.


    Such an interactive and novel model will soon attract everyone. In Chang''an City, when friends meet, they ask not whether they have eaten, but what you guess is as white as salt?


    Song Shichao was an ordinary citizen of Chang''an City, but he became a celebrity of Chang''an city because of one thing.


    He cried loudly in the ink exhibition, claiming that he had guessed the secret of the secret technique of living fish, but he was disturbed by his silly mother.


    Such a unlucky move was jokingly called the closest person to Mohist School - Mohist school. Some even suggested that he change his name to song Dunde, so that he might guess the secret skills of Mohist school next time.


    However, song Shichao is not ashamed but proud. With Merton becoming famous in Chang''an city again and again, song Shichao has become the number one fan of Mohism.


    Although there is not much literacy, song Shichao, an ink magazine produced by the Mohist school, does not pull an order. Fortunately, the ink magazine is easy to write and has no obstacles to reading.


    Of course, you can''t miss the receipt for completing Merton''s peerless poems in Ink magazine.


    In his courtyard, song Shichao thought about it with ink magazine, and suddenly set his eyes on his plum tree. This year, the plum blossoms in Chang''an city are particularly good, but he is deeply impressed.


    Then I had an idea. I picked up my pen and wrote Mei on the receipt. I turned and looked at my mother-in-law who was busy in the kitchen. I hurried out of the house with the receipt, found an ink magazine stronghold, and handed the receipt to the teenagers in Mojia village.


    Such scenes can be found everywhere in Chang''an City, which has simply become a grand event for the participation of the whole people, and then led to the outbreak of ink magazines. Some citizens think it is appropriate to have several words in their hearts, so they simply buy some ink magazines continuously, write them all and invest them in them.


    As a result, this issue of supplement directly set the highest sales quota of Ink magazine, which has doubled. With ink magazine, Mohist snow salt is once again popular in the whole city, which is in short supply.

 Chapter 181

    The Wang family was really bitten, and it was so painful that they couldn''t take their hands off guard.


    Under Merton''s unexpected advertising offensive, the Wang family''s Yuncheng fine salt has been losing ground. It has lost half of the market of Chang''an City for half a month, and is still losing the market and even reputation at a terrible speed.


    If this continues, I''m afraid Yuncheng fine salt will be completely defeated by Mohist snow salt in a short time. You know, Chang''an city is the most prosperous and richest place in the whole Tang Dynasty. The annual fine salt will bring astronomical profits to the Wang family. If you lose Chang''an market, the loss to the Wang family will be incalculable.


    "Waste, it''s waste!"


    In the king''s manor, Wang Zhe was furious and roared.


    "Young master, forgive me!"


    Wang Dongzhan, the shopkeeper of Yanxing, knelt down in front of Wang Zhe and begged for mercy. He knew Wang Zhe''s temper. In a rage, he couldn''t listen to anyone''s explanation. If he had to defend forcibly, he might end up worse,


    "My Wang''s Yuncheng fine salt has been selling well in Chang''an City for a hundred years. Any rich family in Chang''an city doesn''t eat my Yuncheng fine salt, but now it has lost half of the market in my hands for only nearly half a month. If you want me to forgive you, how can I explain it in front of the Wang''s eldest house?" Wang Zhe said in a cold voice.


    "I..." Wang Dong couldn''t answer.


    He can''t say that if you Wang Zhe hadn''t insisted on breaking the fine salt of Mohism, how could the scene of Mohist snow salt seizing the fine salt of Yuncheng happen today? As a servant, he can only carry the pot on his own.


    Wang Ningcheng, the shopkeeper of sun YangZheng''s shop, could not bear to see that Wang Dong was so miserable. Moreover, Yan Xing had close contact with sun YangZheng''s shop. He was already prosperous and could not sit and watch Wang Dong''s misfortune. He had to stand up and say: "Young master, the quality of Mohist snow salt is not much better than that of Mohist snow salt. It''s just that Mohist snow salt is white and pleasing in appearance. Coupled with half a poem of Mohist Zi, it has caused a temporary sensation. As long as we operate properly in the future, we will be able to recover most of the market. After all, the people of Chang''an City have eaten our Yuncheng fine salt for many years. How can they easily give it up."


    In fact, Wang Ningcheng knows from the bottom of his heart that even if he grabs back part of the market, it is difficult to return to the dominance of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Even with the choice of Mohist snow salt, major restaurants will have the confidence to negotiate with the Wang family. They will no longer allow the Wang family to extort at high prices as before, and the high profits in the past are estimated to be gone forever.


    In terms of appearance, Yuncheng fine salt is slightly green. Of course, it is much better than coarse salt. Once the Mohist snow salt is produced, it completely beats Yuncheng fine salt in terms of appearance and taste.


    Your Wang''s fine salt is not as good as Mohist snow salt. The price is still so high. If you still sell it at such a high price, don''t blame us for ignoring our friendship for many years.


    "Yes, yes, young master, after a period of heat, the people of Chang''an city will certainly remember the good of our Yuncheng fine salt, and the output of our Yuncheng fine salt has not decreased, even increased slightly!" Wang Dong hurriedly saved himself.


    The reason why Yuncheng fine salt has not decreased is that the popularity of cooking has greatly increased the overall demand for fine salt. In addition, Wang Dong saved himself in advance and made use of his friendship. During this period, a large number of shipments have been made, which can maintain the situation in the short term. However, it has become an established fact that Yuncheng fine salt is weak in Chang''an city.


    Wang Zhe also knows how popular the two poems of mojiazi are in Chang''an city. It''s almost the point of universal participation. Wang Zhe hates mojiazi''s behavior of racing poetry when he doesn''t agree.


    The last "Ma Shuo" made him lose 500 horses. This time, only half a poem in the ink magazine made Yuncheng fine salt lose half of the market in Chang''an city.


    Isn''t it just a little talent? As for you!


    Wang Zhe''s face is a little slow, and the salt output has not decreased, which means that the overall profit is not much different. He still has more room to explain to his family in Taiyuan.


    "However, the momentum of Mohist fine salt cannot be allowed to continue. We must find ways to curb it!" Wang Zhe said sternly.


    "Yes, young master! After I go back, I will immediately contact my old customers and take some promotional measures to make sure I can get the market back!" Wang Dong quickly promised.


    "What about sun YangZheng''s store? How about this business?" Wang Zhe suddenly pointed the spear at Wang Ningcheng.


    Wang Ningcheng panicked and said, "back to young master, since we sun YangZheng store had the help of the public loser and made disposable chopsticks and sterilized dishes, the passenger flow has gradually recovered! However, many customers call for cooking, but due to the lack of iron pot, we can''t make it, so we are still affected."


    With disposable chopsticks and sterilized dishes, although the business of sun YangZheng''s store has recovered, it is not as good as Wang Ningcheng said. In fact, all major hotels and restaurants have launched cooking, leaving only sun YangZheng''s store still fighting hard, and the business will inevitably lose.


    Originally, Wang Ningcheng also wanted to secretly buy several Mohist village frying pans and put them in the back kitchen, but who knows that each Mohist frying pan has a Mohist logo on it. Wang Zhe, who is desperate for face, angrily refused to enter the Wang''s territory with Mohist logo and resolutely refused to use Mohist frying pans, which caused the current situation of sun YangZheng''s store.


    This time, Wang Zhe also knew that it was his own reason. If it were not for his face, sun YangZheng store would not be affected.


    "You don''t have to worry about the iron pot. My young master has arranged the public loser to do it!" Wang Zhe was full of confidence when he thought of the public loser''s reputation in Chang''an city these days.


    "Young master, Mr. Gongshu is coming!" shopkeeper Ma Xingwang came in and reported excitedly. Mr. Gongshu in his mouth is, of course, the owner of Gongshu family, Gongshu Hong.


    "Wang Zhi!" shopkeeper Wang Dong of Yanxing and shopkeeper Wang Ningcheng of sunyangzheng store could not help gnashing their teeth as they looked at shopkeeper Wang, who was successful in small people.


    If the villain had not made a bad relationship with the MOH family at the beginning, provoked discord in front of the childe and repeatedly clashed with the MOH family, how could they fall into such a dilemma.


    However, Wang Zhi is the popular man in front of the childe at this time. He has the credit of inviting the public loser, and the two do lose face in front of the childe one after another. Now they can only break their teeth and have to swallow them into their stomach.


    "Mr. Gongshu is coming! Please come quickly!" Wang Zhe said with a happy face.


    In addition to estimating his own face, there is another reason why he can have the confidence to fight against Mohism in the era of hundreds of schools of thought. Naturally, he has his own unique skills.


    After a while, the strong Gongshu Hong came in under the leadership of Wang Zhi.

 Chapter 182

    "See childe!"


    Gongshu Hong took a few steps forward and made a cumbersome ancient gift to Wang Zhe. He was like a Mexican family


    "Mr. Gongshu, you''re welcome. Please sit down quickly!" Wang Zhe hurriedly said. Although he didn''t know much about Gongshu Hong''s etiquette, it was very useful. It was ancient etiquette! Usually which one can be seen.


    "Thank you, childe!"


    Gongshu Hong sat at the hands of Wang Zhe impolitely. As the leader of Gongshu family, Gongshu Hong''s status certainly doesn''t have to be submissive in front of Wang Zhe.


    "Mr. Gongshu has been well lately, but he is still used to Chang''an city!" Wang Zhe booed the cold and asked for warmth. He couldn''t see the way he was ordered by several shopkeepers just now, and instantly recovered the appearance of a well-educated aristocratic family childe.


    "Thank you for your hospitality. Gongshu Hong has really opened his eyes in Chang''an city these days. He has made great achievements in communicating with the masters in Chang''an City in recent days!" Gongshu Hong sighed.


    As the imperial capital, Chang''an City has gathered a lot of skilled craftsmen, and there are countless capable people and different scholars with their own strengths. The arrogance of Gongshu Hong when he came out of the mountain has gradually come to an end.


    In addition, during this period of time, mojiazi''s ability to turn clouds and rain has opened his eyes. In addition, various legendary events of mojiazi before, the idea of easily defeating Merton has long disappeared.


    In recent days, Gongshu Hong has painstakingly taught some carpentry skills secretly handed down by Gongshu family for thousands of years, which makes him stand firm in Chang''an city.


    "Mr. Gongshu, I don''t know how the things entrusted to you have been done now?" Wang Zhe asked eagerly.


    "I''m lucky not to disgrace my life!" Gongshu Hong said proudly.


    With a move, the public transport wheel immediately led the children of several public transport families to bring in several pots of different sizes.


    "Master!" the public transport wheel saluted.


    "Put it here!" Gong Shuhong nodded.


    The public transport tire led the public transport''s children and presented several pots one by one in front of the public.


    "This is a frying pan?" Wang Ningcheng was surprised. He had a feeling of crying with joy. He had been looking forward to this frying pan for too long. If there were no frying pan again, sun YangZheng store would really close down.


    "Yes!" Gongshu Hong said proudly.


    Wang Ningcheng hurried forward, carefully looked at the frying pan cast by the public loser, took it up and weighed it. He couldn''t help frowning and said, "Mr. public loser, the frying pan you cast seems a little heavy!"


    Although Wang Ningcheng has never used the wok in Mojia village, he has heard of the wok in Mojia village. It is as thin as cicada wings. It is easy to copy the wok with one hand.


    The frying pan in front of you is at least 30% heavier than the Mohist frying pan. Don''t look at this 30% weight. You know, the dishes to be fried every day by chefs in various restaurants are not a small number. If they weigh so much, the burden on chefs will be more than doubled!


    "The shopkeeper is really as sharp as a torch. The frying pan in front of him is really heavier than the Mohist frying pan. Mohist technology is unique. Public losers can also make a thin frying pan like the Mohist frying pan, but it is easy to be damaged and will not be used for long." public loser Hong frowned.


    "It''s all right if you don''t use it for a long time. It''s no big deal to prepare more pots for standby!" Wang Zhe waved his hand. Now it''s not the time for sun YangZheng''s shop to urgently need frying pots. It''s not the time to care about these. As long as it''s not Mohist things that enter the Wang family, it''s not a big thing to spend more iron materials.


    "Er, er, what the young master said was right." Wang Ningcheng choked half to death! I had to obey, but I couldn''t help shivering when I thought about the bad scene of pot after pot when the back kitchen of sun YangZheng''s store was cooking.


    "Young master, as soon as the public loser family arrived in Chang''an City, they have recovered the frying pan. Although there are some defects, I believe that over time, they will be able to make a frying pan that is not inferior to the Mohist school." Wang Zhi hurriedly said.


    "What shopkeeper Wang Zhi said is that it''s only one step away! Please believe in Gongshu''s strength. Over time, Gongshu Hong will be able to make a frying pan as thin as a cicada''s wings." Gongshu Hong said proudly.


    "We naturally believe in the strength of the public losers. In the future, the horseshoes of Wang''s horse shop will be entrusted to the public losers!" Wang Zhi said.


    "Don''t worry, shopkeeper Wang Zhi! You must be satisfied!" Gongshu Hong said happily when he got another unexpected business.


    "Villain!" Wang Ningcheng could not help gnashing his teeth. You are a horseshoe when you are a wok! A blacksmith can make it!


    "Thank you for everything, Mr. public loser." Wang Zhe nodded.


    The public losers came to Chang''an City for more than half a month. They have solved two problems for the Wang family. At least they don''t have to look at the face of the Mohists. Moreover, although the craftsmanship of gongloser is a little worse than that of Mohist, it is much better than that of other craftsmen.


    "By the way, the Wang family still has a problem. Please help Mr. Gongshu!" Wang Zhe said politely.


    "Please, Mr. Wang!" Gong Shuhong said.


    Wang Zhe described in detail the dispute between Wang Yuncheng fine salt and Mohist snow salt. Of course, the narrative process beautified a lot and regarded himself as the weak side of justice.


    "What does childe mean?" Gong Shuhong asked.


    "As long as the public loser can develop a method to purify crude salt from snow salt, my Wang family is willing to buy it with Wanguan money!" Wang Zhe reported an amazing figure.


    "Ten thousand passes!" the public loser Hong exclaimed. Even when the public loser was the most powerful, he had not seen many ten thousand passes, let alone now that he has fallen to the extreme.


    Wang Zhisan also looked surprised. He didn''t expect that since Wang Zhe was so generous, he was a big hand.


    Among the three, only shopkeeper Wang Dong of the salt store is not surprised. He has been in the salt store for many years. Of course, he knows how much profit the salt industry has. The Wang family started from the salt industry. In addition to Yuncheng fine salt, they also control a lot of salt fields to produce crude salt. If they can turn crude salt into snow salt, it will be a great wealth. At that time, Wanguan money is worthless.


    The Wang family can really get the production method of Mohist snow salt. His own loss of the market is nothing at all. Thinking of this, Wang Dong can''t help watching the public lose Hong eagerly. Whether he can turn over depends on the public lose Hong.


    "Yes! As long as the public loser can crack the method of making snow salt, he can get Wanguan money," Wang Zhen affirmed.


    "You really think highly of Gongshu family," Gongshu Hong said with a wry smile.


    "Why is Mr. gongloser unwilling to help?" Wang Zhe said displeased.


    Gongshu Hong waved his hand and said, "Gongshu family just came to Chang''an City, but they received the favor of Childe Wang. Gongshu family is not a disciple who doesn''t know how to repay his kindness. How can they be unwilling to help?"


    "Mr. Gongshu...?" Wang Dong asked eagerly. This is related to his future.


    "Ah Lun, pass the things to childe Wang!" Gongshu Hong waved and the nearby Gongshu wheel came forward and handed a jar to Wang Zhe.


    "Is this snow salt?" Wang Zhe reached out to open the jar and saw the crystal clear large salt grains and white eyes inside.


    "Seriously?" Wang Dong was so excited that he hurried forward to see the snow-white salt in the jar.


    "No, the Mohist snow salt is much thinner than this?" Wang Dong frowned. Regardless of the image, he took out several large salt grains from the salt jar and tasted them in his mouth.


    "Bah!" the bitter saltiness made Wang Dongren vomit out.


    "This is still crude salt!" Wang Dong confirmed.


    Wang Zhe and others also tasted it one by one, and they all looked forward to it. Then look at some of the crude salt in the salt jar, which has begun to deliquesce. The most remarkable feature of Mohist snow salt is that it doesn''t deliquesce for ten days and a half months, and it is still dry and dry.


    "As early as when we first came to Chang''an City, we wanted to repay childe Wang. We wanted to extract snow and salt to share our worries for childe Wang. It''s a pity that we were one step short of chess!" Gongshu Hong also regretted.


    "One step short of chess?" Wang Zhe was disappointed when he looked at the white salt.


    "Gongshu family tried their best to crack the secret of Mohist''s making snow salt, that is, purifying the sediment inside. As a result, they got such white coarse salt. As for taste and particles, I''m afraid it''s the unique secret skill of Mohist family! Gongshu family can''t do anything behind closed doors!" Gongshu Hong looked extremely regretful.


    "Mr. public loser is polite. It''s not easy for public losers to do this in a short time." Wang Zhe said politely, although disappointed.


    After all, in a short time, the public losers have continuously made iron pots and semi purified crude salt, which has proved their value. Other crimes are indeed non war crimes. If the secret skills of the Mohist school were easily cracked, the live fish secret skills at that time would not defeat the whole Chang''an city.


    "Thank you for your understanding!" Gong Shuhong bowed.

 Chapter 183

    Since ancient times, it has represented the highest honor of literati and has been sought after by people. How many unknown people have become famous all over the world with a good poem, even promoted to a higher rank and passed down in history.


    How many people can''t find a good poem all their life and regret it all their life.


    Whenever there is a good poem, it will spread all over the world in the shortest time and become famous overnight. Brothel women don''t entangle capital, just ask the poet to write a poem.


    Liu Yong of the Song Dynasty was the most powerful one. The emperor asked him to write lyrics professionally. The brothel woman was his iron powder. He read the brothel all his life and never spent money. When he died, the whole brothel woman in Kaifeng came to see him off. The brothel woman walked with the coffin, crying bitterly. What''s more, there was a man who was too sad. Die of melancholy.


    Of course, there are some famous poems, but they don''t know how to cherish them. But it is used in crooked ways. For example, the poem is used as an advertisement.


    "The poet expresses his heart by feeling his situation, and expresses his art by feeling his emotion..."


    As soon as Dr. Guozi mentioned poetry, he quoted scriptures and touted the book of songs. At the same time, he stared at Merton with a look of hatred for iron and steel, as if Merton had committed a heinous crime.


    "Bang!" Dr. Guozi closed the book of songs! Anger in his eyes.


    "I hope you can make some achievements by writing poems carefully. Don''t be like some people who think they have a bit of talent and don''t know how to cherish it. They don''t know that they can''t use up their talents at all times and can''t regret it." Dr. Guozi pointed out.


    "Hum!"


    Dr. Guozi left angrily.


    However, this is not the end. Merton didn''t dare to look up all morning.


    Every Guozijian doctor shook his head and sighed at Merton. Even Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, was filled with regret and anger. It makes Merton extremely inexplicable. If Dr. Guozi teaches the book of songs and loves poetry as his life, he can understand Dr. Guozi''s mood. In other words, what''s the matter with such an expression when you teach arithmetic.


    "Dangdang!" the bell rang at noon. Merton was immediately pardoned. He grabbed the book and wanted to rush out.


    "Stop, this road is blocked!"


    Zu Mingjun, Kong huisuo and other class C supervisors immediately blocked the gate. Each one had a sinister smile. They were like wolves preying on Merton.


    "What do you want? I tell you, don''t mess around! You know?" Merton warned.


    "Mess, I think you mess!" Kong huisuo sneered.


    "Yes, do you know that I meditated for days and nights to write a good poem. What happened? When I gave my poem to the master, the master looked at it and never looked at it again." Kong huisuo denounced his history of blood and tears.


    "Do you know that in order to write poetry, I recite almost all the poems of my predecessors. As a result! Up to now, I can''t write poetry." Zu Mingjun said faintly, full of resentment.


    "What are you? I wrote more than enough poems. As a result, you said, how many of my poems have you read!" another supervisor was so sad and angry that he turned the spearhead directly.


    "Cough! I''ll talk about your poetry collection later. Now the most important thing is not this..." Kong huisuo quickly changed the topic.


    "Yes, yes!"


    A group of State Children and prison students spoke loudly.


    Suddenly, everyone glared at Merton again.


    "And you? The most shameful thing is that you still use distorted poems to advertise. Today, if you don''t tell us what it is, don''t think of this door." Zu Mingjun said arrogantly.


    "Yes, not only tell us, but also write the whole poem."


    "Yes!"


    Bingshe people shouted one after another.


    "It''s just a poem, isn''t it?" Merton said weakly.


    In later generations, it is common to write a crooked poem, but he underestimated the position of poetry in people''s minds.


    "As for it?" Zu Mingjun lengthened his voice. Although he was a child of the arithmetic family among the many national son supervisors, it did not mean that poetry was not high in his heart, or even almost the same.


    "How many good poems can the whole Tang Dynasty spread in a year, so you won''t write me another one." Zu Mingjun said, gritting his teeth.


    "Really?" Merton couldn''t help but ponder, and a bad feeling suddenly rose in warden C''s heart.


    "Spring sleeps without dawn..." Merton lengthened his voice.


    Zu Mingjun was shocked and said that sometimes the first sentence can determine whether the poem is good or not, and it happens that this sentence is indeed a classic. Although it is simple, it has a long lasting charm.


    "Mosquitoes bite everywhere, big bears come at night, and no one can run away." Merton quickly finished the remaining three sentences.


    "Plop."


    The whole students of C house suddenly fell down.


    "Spring sleeps without dawn, mosquitoes bite everywhere, and no one can run away at night." it sounds beautiful, but the language is extremely vulgar except the first sentence.


    Crooked poetry, or crooked poetry! The hearts of the people were still wailing.


    "The MOH family!" bingshe all immediately gnashed their teeth,


    "Come again! I don''t believe you still have!" Zu Mingjun said angrily.


    "The sunshine censer produced purple smoke, and Merton came to the roast duck restaurant. His saliva flowed 3000 feet. He touched his pocket and didn''t bring any money."


    "Poof!"


    Many imperial college students immediately vomited three liters of blood. Mojiazi was addicted to playing crooked poetry, and even ridiculed himself.


    Merton doesn''t have money to buy roast duck. You own the Mohist Food City and pay for it.


    "What else?" Kong huisuo covered his heart and said sadly and angrily. He had made enough psychological preparation to deal with any unexpected impact.


    "During the Qingming Festival, it rains in succession. I''m lonely and want to break my soul. I ask where there is a bachelor. The shepherd boy points to the Mojia village from a distance."


    There are many singles in Mojia village, which is a famous rumor in Chang''an city. However, with the prosperity of Mojia village, the number of singles in Mojia village has decreased sharply. I didn''t expect that even Mojia village won''t let go of the ridicule after Merton ridiculed himself


    "Plop!"


    Bingshe knelt inside and outside. At this time, bingshe had already attracted many Guozi prison students. Hearing Merton''s crooked poems, it was like lightning.


    "I''ll spell it for you!" bingshe rushed up angrily and ravaged Merton.


    Under the threat of bingshe''s force, Merton just said the original poems of the three poems, but he did not say the advertising words.


    "Chunxiao"


    Spring sleep without dawn,


    Birds sing everywhere.


    The sound of wind and rain at night,


    How many flowers fall. "


    There is no doubt that this is indeed a good poem with far-reaching artistic conception, but compared with Merton''s crooked poems, it is just a heaven and a earth.


    With the obsessed people reading poems, Merton''s three poems generally spread all over the Imperial College and spread to Chang''an city at a fast speed.

 Chapter 184

    "The sunshine censer produces purple smoke. Looking at the waterfall hanging in front of the river from a distance, it flies down 3000 feet. It is suspected that the Milky way falls nine days."


    In Chang''an City, people sang this well-known poem, and they were amazed. Mojiazi was still the mojiazi. People couldn''t write a poem in a few months, but mojiazi had a hat trick directly, three at a time, and all of them were well-known poems.


    Of course, Merton has never been to Lushan Mountain and can only change his name to wanghukou waterfall. Fortunately, in the Tang Dynasty, soil erosion was not too serious. Hukou waterfall is not like that in later generations. It is more appropriate to use the metaphor of the Milky way.


    However, this is not the key point. The real focus is on Merton''s crooked poems. Only real learned people will calm down and taste the beautiful poems of Merton''s poems. Most of Chang''an City has fallen into Merton''s self Dark Carnival.


    "Mosquitoes bite everywhere! The Mexican family is so funny!"


    "Big bear! When I get back, I''ll scare my brother! He has the least courage!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Now is the season when mosquitoes begin to breed. Every night, small mosquitoes fly everywhere and bite the thief! People in Chang''an city feel the same.


    "Ha ha, my mouth is watering 3000 feet. Is mojiazi addicted to advertising and even advertised the roast duck in the food city?"


    "Let''s go and have a taste today. What a delicious roast duck that can make the mouth of mojiazi drool 3000 feet!"


    "Go with me. The food in the Mohist food city is delicious. I eat tasteless now!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With Merton''s version of crooked poems, the roast duck in the Mohist food city is so popular that it''s almost three feet away. Fortunately, as soon as Xu Jie heard Merton''s crooked poems, he had already begun to prevent this phenomenon, and then added five windows to sell roast duck, which did not cause riots.


    Before that, the poet represented his status and identity. In people''s mind, the poet must be dressed in white clothes, holding a folding fan, elegant, either natural and unrestrained, or concerned about the country and the people, or heroic and majestic.


    No poet has ever been so grounded to Merton, and even dared to brush himself with the Mohist village. The people of Chang''an City found for the first time that the distance between the poet and themselves was so close.


    Since the black mode first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, it immediately showed great power. Although the previous Merton''s poems were classic, they only spread among scholars. Now Merton''s three crooked poems are known to women and children.


    Now, if you walk to the street of Chang''an City and pull a person, you give him a sunshine incense burner and purple smoke. Do you think he can answer it for you.


    You don''t pay for your life!


    Dr. Guozi asked for half a month off immediately after hearing Merton''s three crooked poems. It is said that Dr. Guozi can''t listen to people talking about poetry, otherwise he will have a headache, let alone teach the book of songs.


    However, Merton''s three crooked poems and three positive poems once again prove Merton''s talent. There is no doubt about the snow salt advertising poems in the ink magazine. This is definitely a famous article handed down. There is no doubt that it does not belong to these three crooked poems at least.


    With this judgment, snow salt advertising is more popular, which directly drives the sales of snow salt to rise again, and Xu Jie can''t close his mouth with a smile.


    However, Merton couldn''t laugh at the moment. The whole person seemed to be wilting, with a low eyebrow.


    "During the Qingming Festival, it rains in succession. I''m lonely and want to break my soul. I ask where there are singles. The shepherd boy points to the Mojia village. Tell me how many singles there are in your Mojia village!"


    In Chongwen Museum, Li Shimin roared at Merton with his back and black face.


    After Merton''s proud group killed the Imperial College, when he was satisfied, he suddenly saw Pound''s expressionless and frightening face. Suddenly he sighed in his heart and knew that he was a little off again. Sure enough, Li Shimin sprayed Merton bloody as soon as he met.


    "No, no!" Merton quickly shook his head. This time is not a hard time. Of course he can''t say more? Even you are single?


    "No... aren''t you very talented? Come and give me some songs." Li Shimin still roared at Merton.


    "You see, how many people come to impeach you!" Li Shimin said angrily as he patted a pile of high memorials on the table.


    "Ah!"


    Merton was stunned!


    "I just wrote a few crooked poems and immediately corrected them. As for such a minister''s impeachment?" Merton was extremely depressed.


    "Some people say you are proud of your talent! Some people impeach you for being evil and distorting poetry, which is like forgetting your ancestors. Others say you are unworthy of talent and morality, and strongly advise you to get rid of the Imperial College..."


    Li Shimin counted more than a dozen counts of Morton''s crimes!


    Merton simply admired the brain holes of these officials, and a little joke went so far on the platform.


    "Except for the removal of the Imperial College, the boy can accept it. Everything else is extremely wronged!" Merton cried sadly.


    "You think so? If you have a son of state supervising you, and you make Chang''an City restless, if you really become a runaway wild horse, you won''t turn the Tang Dynasty upside down to me." Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Er, er, boy, don''t dare!"


    It''s a little big. Merton doesn''t dare to hold it up.


    "No, what are you afraid of? You make a fuss all day. You don''t think about being loyal to your country at all. You know nonsense!"


    Li Shimin''s sarcasm and sarcasm made Merton feel ashamed, and he was about to turn into a crack in the ground.


    "Father! Why are you angry again?" then a soft voice came from the background.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, his face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny. He immediately changed a smiling face and turned back and said, "Yuzi, why are you here?"


    "I heard that when Merton comes, I''ll come and have a look. I agreed with brother 9 that Merton will never be called the Merton devil again!" his childish voice made Li Shimin laugh.


    "OK, my son understands!" Li Shimin praised.


    "Thank you, your highness Jinyang for asking for mercy!" Merton hurriedly stepped down the slope.


    "You''re lucky this time, boy! I''ll let you go this time! You go to the teaching school first and teach young slaves how to calculate." Li Shimin glanced at Merton and let Merton go.


    Merton''s arithmetic has been recognized by countless people. Of course, it''s easy to teach a first-year level Li Zhina. Every time he is called by Li Shimin to the palace, Merton will always be a mathematician.


    "Thank you for your grace!"


    Merton, if pardoned, goes down immediately.


    "Since you can write poetry, you can also teach young slaves to write poetry! Remember, if you dare to teach indiscriminately, be careful of your ass." Merton stumbled as soon as he stepped out of the store.


    So this is your old man''s purpose! In order to teach your children, why don''t you pull me over and give me a lecture first?

 Chapter 185

    Chongwenguan school


    Not only Li Zhi, but all princes under the age of 12 are there, from Li you, king of Qi, to Li Zhi, king of Jin.


    "This is today''s schoolwork! Your highness went back to recite ten poems about spring and handed in a poem inscribed with spring." today''s professor''s schoolwork is a thin chongwenguan doctor in his forties, named Zhao Gongcun.


    "Ah! Write poetry!"


    The whole Chongwen hall suddenly burst into mourning!


    When Merton''s figure appeared at the door, it immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Merton!" Li Zhi shouted.


    Li Zhi really stopped calling Merton the great devil, not because he was bought by Merton''s cake, nor did he suddenly realize the beauty of arithmetic, but because Li Zhi encountered a problem thousands of times more difficult than arithmetic - writing poetry.


    Li Zhi usually likes ancient poetry very much. Although he shouted Merton the devil all day and complained about the difficulty of arithmetic, he still admired Merton''s ability to write poetry.


    But when it was his turn to write poetry, Li Zhi knew what a painful thing it was.


    It''s not just Li Zhi''s pain. All princes are painful. When they were young, they had to calm down and write poetry. That''s the biggest torture. But as royal children, when they bear endless prosperity, they will also bear more burdens than ordinary children.


    Other princes also looked at Merton with complex eyes. The Mohists have been in the limelight these days. Even if they have been in the deep palace for a long time, it is like thunder.


    "Hey! If you have the talent of Mohist school, you don''t have to be so tangled!" the princes couldn''t help but sigh.


    "Are you the son of the Mo family?" Zhao Gongcun said angrily, looking at the beautiful Merton.


    "Merton has met Mr. Zhao." Merton saluted respectfully. Merton has heard a lot about this great figure in history.


    "Hum! It''s a bit of a geek, but it''s a pity that he didn''t use the right way!" Zhao Gongcun snorted coldly, brushed his sleeve and left.


    After Zhao Gongcun left, the Chongwen Museum became active, gathered around Merton, and recovered to the young mind one by one.


    "Spring sleeps without dawn. Mosquitoes bite everywhere. No one can run away when a big bear comes at night."


    Li you, king of Qi, read this crooked poem around Merton in cadence. All the princes around him burst into laughter. Among the princes, Li you, king of Qi, was the most naughty and had the worst study.


    "The sunshine censer produces purple smoke. Merton comes to the roast duck shop. His saliva flows 3000 feet. He has no money in his pocket. Merton, do you like roast duck? I don''t like roast duck. I like fried chicken," said Yue King Li Zhen with saliva


    "I don''t like roast duck, I like cake," said Li you, king of Qi.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Merton suddenly looked black. He didn''t think he was just black. He took it seriously among the bear children.


    "Merton, what is a bachelor?" Li Zhi asked curiously


    Merton was in a cold sweat. He felt that today''s training was not in vain. No wonder Zhao Gongcun''s nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes.


    "Well, you''ll know what when you grow up. Don''t you want to write poetry? You don''t have to write it quickly. You have to cram in arithmetic later!" Merton said ha ha and quickly changed the topic for fear that the bear children would make any more amazing words.


    "Writing poetry?"


    Li Zhi immediately wrinkled his face, and the other princes were also dejected.


    "Forget it, I don''t think I can recite even ten poems. This time, I''m bound to be beaten!" Li you, a pair of dead pigs, is not afraid of boiling water.


    "Yes, yes, we are not as talented as you." Li Zhi and others said with envy.


    "In fact, writing poetry is very simple," Morton comforted.


    "Simple?"


    The princes looked at Merton like monsters.


    "Really? I also want to know how to write poetry here. It''s easy!" Li Shimin''s voice sounded behind Merton.


    "Father!"


    Li Zhi and others immediately changed their faces and immediately stood up in a row respectfully.


    "See the emperor!" Merton also changed his face and quickly turned back to salute. He bowed his head with a guilty heart. I don''t know if Li Shimin heard when Li Zhi asked about his bachelor just now.


    "Hum! No gift! I''m also curious about how the famous Mohist family wrote poetry!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. Although Li Shimin beat the world immediately, he really has great literary talent. There are a lot of Li Shimin''s poems handed down in history.


    "The wind knows the strong grass, and the board knows the sincere minister."


    "If a man takes copper as a mirror, he can correct his clothes; if he takes ancient times as a mirror, he can know the rise and fall; if he takes people as a mirror, he can know the gains and losses."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Li Shimin''s poetic talent can be seen if he is not full of classics.


    "Your majesty! Although writing poetry requires inspiration and talent, it is not without trace. As long as we find the law behind the poetry, writing poetry is not a difficult thing," Merton said reluctantly.


    "Law? This is your Mohist study again?" Li Shimin said.


    "Yes!" said Merton proudly. "As long as you master the laws of poetry, you can easily write a poem.


    "What nonsense!"


    Zhao Gongcun, who followed behind Li Shimin, couldn''t listen any more and yelled loudly.


    Zhao Gongcun is also a master of poetry. He is responsible for teaching the princes'' studies. Naturally, his knowledge is not shallow.


    "Really?"


    Merton''s mouth showed an iconic smile.


    "The boy dared to talk nonsense and asked master Zhao for advice. His poems stress symmetry, such as cloud to rain, snow to wind, and evening light to the clear sky. Come to Hong to go to Yan, and live birds to chirp insects. Three foot sword, six Jun bow, Lingbei to Jiangdong, there is a political palace in the world and a broad and cold palace in the sky." Merton said in a loud voice.


    "There is a political Palace on earth and a Guanghan palace in the sky!" Li Shimin was shocked.


    Lizheng hall is the bedroom of empress Chang sun. Merton compares Lizheng hall with Guanghan palace. One heaven and one earth can easily get a good poem.


    "Can you write half a poem so easily?"


    Zhao Gongcun''s face also changed. He is also a frequent poet. Of course, he knows that these are the words he often uses, but there has never been such a clear and straightforward comparison..


    However, Merton didn''t finish. He continued: "spring vs. summer, autumn vs. winter, twilight drum vs. morning bell. Watching mountains vs. playing water, green bamboo vs. green pine. Feng Fuhu, ye gonglong, dancing butterflies vs. Ming Gu. Sir wants his highness to write poems in spring. There is a song here, the yingcha in the spring garden and the wild geese outside the Great Wall in autumn."


    "Spring to autumn, Orioles to geese! Just to Yongyong." Li Shimin chewed the poem carefully and found that the poem is really a good poem. But after careful experience, he will understand that the poem is full of craftsmanship. As long as the frame is in, he can fill in words and combine them almost arbitrarily.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Clear to turbid, bitter to salty, open to three silence. Smoke and rain rainbows to rain hats, moon billboards to sails. Ying screens, Yan whispers, Liu Qi to pine and fir..."


    "Yes or no, saints vs. sages, guards vs. Huns. Sparrows vs. fishnets, emeralds vs. cangyan. Red Luozhang, white cloth shirt, pen lattice vs. letters..."


    "The crown is right for the belt, the hat is right for the shirt, and the discussion of thorns is right for slander. The boating is right for the Royal horse, and the vulgarity is wrong for the people''s rock. The rats are strong, and the rabbits are many, and the history books are silent. The fortress hears the horn, and the river recognizes the sails. The river is a source of water, and the Mount Tai is full of potential rock. Zheng is the Duke of Wu, who endows clothes with virtue; Zhou is slandered because of Xiang Bo and Ge Bei brocade."


    Every time Merton said a paragraph, Zhao Gongcun''s face turned pale. With these as a comparison, the poetry could be so simple.

 Chapter 186

    "In the garden under the window, ten pines are planted in spring. In autumn, the leaves fall to the ground, and the trees are empty." Li Zhi shook his head and read his masterpiece aloud.


    The princes around also applauded one after another and gave their great works. For a moment, poets walked everywhere in the whole palace, and there were many prodigies like dogs.


    "Father, how''s my poem?" Li Zhi looked at Li Shimin with a cute face.


    "Good, good, the poem made by the young slave is certainly a good poem!" Li Shimin laughed and said proudly.


    The schoolwork of these boys has always been a headache for him. Unexpectedly, Merton had an unexpected joy when he came.


    "What about Merton''s poems?" Li Zhi asked expectantly.


    Li Shimin immediately turned pale and couldn''t answer.


    "When Wei Chen was seven years old, he couldn''t write such a poem. Wei Chen was not as good as his Highness the king of Jin!" Merton hurried forward to help Li Shimin out of the siege.


    "Hmm! A young slave must be a great poet when he grows up!" Li Shimin looked at Merton with appreciation. You know how to advance and retreat.


    "Oh!"


    Lizhi flushed with excitement and shouted with joy.


    "Master, this is my poem. Please check it!" Li Zhen, king of Yue, immediately finished her homework on the spot and handed it to Zhao Gongcun.


    "Master, this is mine!"


    "This is mine!"


    The princes enthusiastically handed in their masterpiece, and even the most naughty Li you soon handed in his masterpiece.


    Li you felt that he was going to get the board this time. He didn''t expect to write his homework as soon as possible. Don''t mention how excited he was.


    Zhao Gongcun looked at the freshly baked poems with fair and symmetrical melody, and his heart was full of five flavors.


    If he had seen a group of young children writing such poems, he would have been ecstatic and exclaimed at prodigies. Now it seems that there are too many prodigies in the palace.


    If he is a man who has to shoot a horse, he must climb up the pole and stop his credit on himself. After all, he is Zhao Gongcun who teaches the prince''s poems.


    But Zhao Gongcun is not happy at all. What a sacred thing it is to write poetry. Now it has been destroyed by Mohist Zi.


    "Your Highness wrote well, eh! Very well!" said Zhao Gongcun insincerely. I don''t know whether to be happy or sad. However, for a group of young children who can write neat poems, he has nothing to ask for.


    "Well, go and write your homework!"


    With a big hand, Li Shimin rushed the excited young poets to the school and continued to sprinkle their poetic talent.


    In a side hall of Chongwen hall.


    Li Shimin sat high in the first place and was directly divided into two factions in front of him, one is Merton and the other is all the teachers of Chongwen hall.


    "Phonological enlightenment?"


    The first half of the phonological enlightenment was quickly circulated among the teachers. The whole phonological enlightenment is thousands of words. Merton can''t write it in a short time. Rao is so. Looking at the phonological enlightenment in the first half, each teacher''s face remains unchanged, his eyes involuntarily float to the side, and a young Merton on his face. The whole hall falls into a strange silence.


    "You are all learned people. Let''s discuss whether this sound law enlightenment should be carried out in the world?" Li Shimin asked.


    From the standpoint of the emperor, he certainly had the phonological enlightenment. In the future, the difficulty of writing poetry will be greatly reduced, which plays an inestimable role in the promotion of poetry.


    But as a poet, he certainly knows that the poems written according to the phonological enlightenment are always uncomfortable.


    "If you return to your majesty, this matter must not be. The Enlightenment of sound and law seems to reduce the difficulty of writing poetry, but in fact it is full of craftsmanship! In the long run, everyone doesn''t want to make progress and copy mechanically. I''m afraid that unknown poetry will spread in the future, and only mediocre poetry will be left everywhere." Zhao Gongcun was distressed first.


    "Wei Chen also agrees with Mr. Zhao that the Enlightenment of sound and law is not the great prosperity of poetry, but the great harm of poetry. Here, the old minister wants to impeach the Mo family. The Mo family has a bad mind, specializes in crooked ways, forgets their ancestors, and devolves the efforts of their ancestors. First, they use poetry to do unorthodox things, but they don''t want to repent. They hold their own crooked talents, and even make three crooked poems. It''s an inch''s worth an inch. Finally However, it has intensified and even enlightened with the rhythm of sound, with the intention of destroying the thousands of years of poetry in China. "Liu Zhen, a Bachelor of chongwenguan, said angrily,


    A group of chongwenguan scholars nodded and looked at Merton. They were enemies of life and death.


    "Ah!"


    Merton knew who was impeaching himself and forgetting his ancestors. It turned out that it was the one in front of him. At this time, Liu Zhen was not in a high position, but continued to wait for the opportunity in the Chongwen Museum.


    "Bachelor Liu, that''s bad!"


    Merton quickly argued to himself that if he was allowed to set a crime for himself, he might not be able to get out of the Meridian Gate alive and be killed directly.


    "For thousands of years, poetry has only been in the hands of a few people, and most people have never been able to read it all their life, or even fear it at the sight of poetry. The sound and law enlightenment is indeed full of craftsmanship, but it can enable more people to contact poetry and get started earlier, rather than wasting time." Merton Lang said.


    "Even if you write more mediocre poems, you can''t compare with a good poem that can be handed down through the ages!" Liu zhe said contemptuously.


    Merton smiled and said, "the sound and law enlightenment is really too crafty, but it''s not useless. It''s just an enlightenment for beginners to accumulate materials, but it''s not useless for a good poem. I remember that scholar Liu has a poem that I admire very much! Pingyang is good at singing and dancing, and Jingu is full of moves to carry it... I don''t have to brush my long sleeves and wait for the dark crow at night."


    Liu Zhen listened to Merton recite his famous works. Instead of feeling extremely honored, he was full of embarrassment. Because in Liu Zhen''s poems, almost the enlightenment with sound and rhythm can be compared.


    "You..."


    Liu Zhen''s face turned red. He had just refuted that Mohism''s enlightenment with sound and law would destroy his poetry, but he found that his poetry almost coincided with the enlightenment with sound and law.


    Well, I was beaten in the face by myself. If all the poems made with the sound and rhythm enlightenment are mediocre poems, what is it that my poems are completely in line with the sound and rhyme enlightenment?


    Other bachelors were also embarrassed. They studied by themselves and recalled their poems. They couldn''t help sweating. Liu Zhen was only there, which was the case for almost everyone.


    In fact, they are firmly opposed to the phonological enlightenment. It is not that the phonological enlightenment will destroy the poetry and kill the poet''s spirit.


    But the sound and rhyme enlightenment revealed the deepest secret in their hearts, a secret that made them famous and rich. Of course, they are not willing to share it with the world.


    "A single flower is not spring, and a thousand flowers bloom in spring. If every ten readers in the Tang Dynasty can use rhyme to enlighten and write poetry, and one of the ten children who can write poetry can write a good poem, I believe the Tang Dynasty will be full of poetry in less than ten years." Merton said proudly.


    Tang poetry is the greatest glory in the history of literature. Since Merton came to this world, when this glory is about to rise, he will add a helping hand and let it climb to the peak again.

 Chapter 187

    early morning.


    When a ray of sunshine shines on the magnificent East Gate Tower of Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city suddenly boils like a sleeping giant with his eyes open.


    What is different from the past is that today''s Chang''an City has more noise and expectation, because today is the day when Mohist magazine is released, and Mohist advertising poems will be released today.


    "Shopkeeper pan, hasn''t the ink magazine been delivered yet?"


    As soon as the pan restaurant opened, sun Juren couldn''t wait to come in and wait.


    "Oh! It''s sun Ju Ren!" shopkeeper pan was still sorting the counter. He was surprised to see sun Ju Ren come in.


    "It''s reasonable to say that it has been delivered at this time, but today at this time, I don''t know why it hasn''t arrived yet!" shopkeeper pan also wondered.


    "Oh! I didn''t receive the newspaper either, so I came here to have a look." sun Juren was slightly disappointed. Sun Juren also subscribed to half a year of ink magazines, but he really didn''t receive it today, so he couldn''t help coming to check it.


    After several months of publication, ink magazine has almost been integrated into the daily life of Chang''an city. The ordinary news everywhere is understood through Ink magazine. Usually, I drink tea, watch ink magazines, understand local news, and chat with my friends.


    Of course, the prosperity of ink periodicals is not without envy. Some people once wanted to copy the road of ink periodicals. Although engraving printing has spread, there are several news channels of Mohist village.


    Now, the news source of Mojia village has expanded to Sichuan and Shu areas in the south, reaching Luoyang in the East, and even contacting the prairie in the north. Whenever Hu merchants arrive in the west, there will always be "good poetry" from the children of Mojia. Sun Ju people''s spirit is refreshed and enjoy it like a spring breeze. At the same time, he is a little sorry. The dispute between Mei and Xue has a long history. Why didn''t he think of it at that time? However, this poem of mojiazi did not disappoint him.


    "Mei Xuxun''s snow is three parts white, but the snow loses Mei''s fragrance!" Sun Ju Ren chewed the snow plum carefully, and felt more and more sweet and delicious. The regret that he had not been able to guess Mei disappeared.


    "Alas, it''s a pity. Why didn''t I think it was plum? When it snowed, it was just when the plum blossoms were blooming!" shopkeeper pan also regretted. He was not a scholar like sun Juren, but a careful businessman. If he could get ten kilograms of snow salt, wouldn''t he be able to leave a sum of money for the restaurant.


    With the publication of Ink magazine, Merton''s snow plum quickly spread all over Chang''an city.


    Chang''an city was full of wails and many people regretted. This was a simple poem like the struggle between Mei and Xue. Why didn''t he think of it.


    Of course, there were also a lot of ecstatic voices. Only a hundred people could guess correctly this time. Merton waved his big hand and sent ten kilograms of snow salt as long as he guessed correctly.


    "Hahaha, twenty ink magazines are only twenty articles! Ten kilograms of snow salt is worth hundreds of articles. How can this business be cost-effective!" a smart guy bought twenty newspapers at once. Finally, he was right about the dispute between Mei and Xue and shouted excitedly.


    The people around me were annoyed. Why didn''t they think of this way?


    Song Shichao looked at the ten kilograms of snow and salt in his hand. His eyes were filled with tears. He didn''t think he had an idea. He really guessed it.


    "Touch!"


    Ten kilograms of snow and salt were heavily placed in front of his mother-in-law, and song''s mouth opened in shock.


    "This is snow salt?" Song couldn''t believe it. He looked at the white salt in his hand and couldn''t help pinching it in his mouth. Suddenly, a salty smell filled his mouth, completely without the bitterness of the crude salt he usually eats.


    "Of course!" Song Shichao said proudly. Looking at his wife''s shocked eyes, he only felt that his depression was cleared away.


    With the spread of Ink magazine in Chang''an City, the well-known poem Xuemei completely spread all over Chang''an city.


    However, in half a month, four well-known poems came out one after another. At this moment, the talent of mojiazi abused Chang''an city.


    "Having children should be like the Mohist family!" countless people lamented. If only my children had the talent of the Mohist family!


    Suddenly, someone with sharp eyes mixed a small advertisement in the middle of the ink magazine.


    "Do you want to be your child and a child prodigy? Do you want your child to be as poetic as mojiazi? Please buy the exclusive poem writing secret collection of mojiazi, phonological enlightenment, so that your child can read at the age of three, recite poetry at the age of five, and writing poetry at the age of ten is not a dream!"

 Chapter 188

    "I can read at the age of three, recite poetry at the age of five and write poetry at the age of ten."


    Countless people saw this advertisement and couldn''t help being messy in the wind.


    Child prodigy, since ancient times, is the pursuit of countless aspiring parents. Whenever their children make a little achievement, they will give their parents endless talk in front of relatives and friends, let alone child prodigy.


    "True or false?" someone doubted.


    Anyone who sees Merton''s unique advertisement can''t help wondering.


    "It''s needless to say? It must be true. Ink magazine said a lie that time." at this time, the credibility that ink magazine has maintained for a long time has finally achieved results, and many people believe in Ink magazine.


    "I said, how can the MOH family write poetry so well? It turns out that there is really a secret script for writing poetry." the people suddenly realized.


    The sound and rhyme enlightenment was sold through the ink magazine. Once it was sold, it immediately caused a sensation in Chang''an city. The 3000 sound and rhyme enlightenment books put into Chang''an City on the first day were looted in just an hour.


    After the people of Chang''an city bought it back, they couldn''t help but marvel at the whole confrontation between the workers. This is not only useful for children, but also for some scholars. After reading the rhyme enlightenment in the previously obscure places, they couldn''t help but suddenly open up.


    "I see!"


    After reading the phonological enlightenment, many readers can''t help feeling a little impressed.


    "Mohist is worthy of Mohist!" countless people sighed. The sound and rhyme enlightenment spread throughout Chang''an city at the speed of the wind and spread outward at a very fast speed.


    In Chang''an City, almost every teacher taught phonological enlightenment from the Imperial College to private schools. Even after Dr. Guozi got the phonological enlightenment, he immediately cancelled his sick leave and specially explained the phonological enlightenment in the Imperial College.


    For a while, there were many prodigies in Chang''an City, poetry clubs were everywhere, poetry was booming, and countless poems were born every day. Although there were no amazing poems for the time being, good poems did emerge one after another.


    Merton''s reputation is really known to women and children this time. However, the louder Merton''s reputation is, the more angry some people are.


    "Mojiazi!"


    In sun YangZheng''s shop, Wang Zhe could not help gnashing his teeth as soon as he mentioned the name.


    "Brother Wang, why do you look so good!" Chang sun Chong put down the "sound and rhyme enlightenment" in his hand and looked at Wang Zhe and said.


    "Elder brother sun doesn''t know something. This time, with a few crooked poems, the Mohist family unexpectedly led to a significant increase in the sales of Mohist snow salt. My Wang family''s Yuncheng fine salt lost a lot this time, and my younger brother must be involved in returning to Taiyuan this time." Wang zhe said angrily.


    When the Mohist school did not rise, Wang Zhe wanted wind and rain in Chang''an City, but when he met the Mohist school, he ate it again and again.


    "I have to say that the Mohists really have some talent!" the eldest sun snapped the "sound and rhyme enlightenment" on the table and sighed.


    Even Wang Zhe is speechless. No matter how much hatred he has against Merton, he can''t slander the talent of Mohists. He also read this book "sound and rhyme enlightenment", which is also amazing.


    "By the way! Didn''t the Wang family invite the public loser? Why can''t they deal with the ink family!" the eldest sun asked in surprise.


    Wang Zhe suddenly looked bitter when he heard the speech: "don''t hide from brother Gongsun, the public loser is really unique, but he can''t help snow and salt."


    The Gongshu family has studied snow and salt for a long time, but it''s a pity that laymen can see through the knowledge of chemistry. Coupled with the conscious confidentiality of Mojia village, the most critical core parts are all done by the children of Mojia village. The Wang family can''t find a chance to copy the trick of stealing Mojia recipes.


    Moreover, the things produced by Mojia village are all best-selling products in short supply. Wang Zhe can''t find opportunities to use some crooked ways, which makes Wang Zhe, who has never suffered a loss, depressed. He didn''t expect that Mojia village is so difficult and can''t talk like a hedgehog.


    "Brother Wang has been wronged!"


    Chang sun Chong comforted on the surface, but actually sneered in his heart. This is Chang''an city. You really think it''s Taiyuan where the Wang family covers the sky.


    "But the public loser gave me another surprise." Wang Zhe smiled.


    "Surprise?" asked the elder sun.


    "Please move to Dongshi to see it." Wang Zhe said mysteriously.


    "Well, then I''m looking forward to brother Wang''s surprise." the eldest sun rushed up.


    Dongshi carpenter''s shop.


    "Gongshu Hong, see you two!" Gongshu Hong, who had already received the news, immediately greeted Wang Zhe and his eldest son and saluted respectfully.


    As the saying goes, people are poor and ambition is short. Now public losers depend on others. Of course, public losers will not forget their etiquette.


    "Mr. public loser, no gift!" Wang Zhe hurriedly said. Every time she sees the ancient rites displayed by Gongshu Hong, Wang Zhe always has an inexplicable sense of superiority and is very useful.


    "This is the eldest son of the eldest son''s family, eldest son Chong!" Wang Zhe introduced him.


    "Eldest grandson!" Gongshu Hong was shocked and quickly saluted. There was only one parent Sun family in Chang''an City, that is, the relatives of the current Dynasty, and in front of him was obviously the eldest son of the current prime minister, eldest sun Wuji.


    It was also the first time for Chang sun Chong to see such ancient and unique etiquette. He dared not neglect it and quickly returned the gift.


    After all, the legends of various schools of thought have been handed down for a long time. Chang sun Chong also admired that great era,


    "The eldest grandson came here in person today, but he really likes Mr. Gongshu''s skills. I hope Mr. Gongshu won''t let the eldest grandson down." Wang Zhe said.


    Gongshu Hong said proudly when he heard the speech: "Gongshu family has nothing else, only one skill left."


    "Wow!"


    In the backyard, tarpaulins were lifted one by one.


    "Is this?" Chang sun Chong looked at the familiar object and wondered.


    Under each oilcloth, there are all the items that the Mohists rely on to become famous, such as live fish, waterwheel, Qu Yuan plow, new type columbine, well killing, and even all kinds of pots and tools just produced by the Mohists. Apart from the lack of artificial incubation technology and snow salt, all the items of Mohism are here.


    "These are the tools used by Mohist school to restrain unjust wealth. Mohist school, relying on its skills and self-respect, wantonly converges the world''s wealth, damaging the world and enriching a family. Such an unjust family is not only disliked by you and me, but also worried after Mr. Gongshu heard it, so he deliberately spent his efforts to break the secret skills of Mohist School and let Mohist school eat its own fruit." Wang Zhe seemed impassioned and righteous.


    Chang sun Chong felt something in his heart. Wang Zhe said a lot. In fact, it means imitation.


    Before that, all kinds of artifacts of Mohism could not be imitated by craftsmen, but if they were not skilled, or they cost too much, the gains would not outweigh the losses.


    Public losers want fame, fame, technology and technology. With the support of the Wang family, they will pose a threat to the business of the Mohist family.


    "The Mohists gathered ill gotten gains. Gongshu family decided to fight with him head-on and asked the eldest grandson for strong support." Gongshu Hong had already received Wang Zhe''s hint. Knowing that the eldest grandson and the Mohist son were also enemies, he hurriedly invited him.


    "Well, since the public losers are so eager for justice, the changsun family will support them." naturally, changsun Chong knows that Wang Zhe has come for his purpose. The changsun family controls the iron trade in Guanzhong. With the participation of the changsun family, the alliance will naturally be even stronger.


    Moreover, how could he refuse anything that could bring trouble to the Mexican family?


    "Good!"


    The three immediately looked at each other and said in unison.


    The Chang Sun family had raw materials, the public loser family had crafts, and the Wang family had sales. The three hit it off and reached an agreement.


    So far, the most powerful anti Mexican alliance was officially established.

 Chapter 189

    Mo hospital!


    Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao looked curiously at the strange looking carriage in front of them. The four horses in front of the carriage stood side by side. It was strange to say, because the carriage in front of them had four wheels.


    "Is this what you call an ambulance?"


    Hua Yuan looked at the strange carriage in front of him and turned to Merton.


    "Good!" Merton nodded.


    Looking at this four-wheel carriage that gathered the efforts of all the craftsmen in Mojia village, Merton felt proud. This four-wheel carriage is not as simple as the previous Qu Yuan plow or columbine, and there are countless technical difficulties.


    Just solving the turning problem of the four-wheel carriage has embarrassed the Mohist people for a long time, so it has been delayed until now to make the four-wheel carriage.


    "Four wheels?" Sun Simiao also looked at a strangely shaped carriage in doubt, how heavy.


    At present, the Tang Dynasty is all two wheeled carriages, but Merton from later generations clearly knows that the four wheeled carriage is the king, because a small part of the power of the two wheeled carriage is pressed on the cattle and horses, while the four wheeled carriage is not. The four wheels hit the ground and share the weight equally. It only needs the cattle and horses to have enough tension to pull the wheels, which directly reduces the burden of the cattle and horses.


    The burden of cattle and horses is reduced, and the endurance of pulling cars is naturally extended.


    "Sun Lao, I don''t know. Although the two wheeled carriage is light, it is too shaky, which is not conducive to the patient''s condition. The four wheeled carriage is different. It runs more smoothly and has enough space!" Merton explained while opening the back door of the four wheeled carriage. Similar to later ambulances, the medical cart designed by Merton is also driven later.


    Merton pulled out a stretcher from the carriage and said, "the patient should not walk, but he should lift it directly with the stretcher to avoid unnecessary secondary injury caused by excessive movement."


    "Stretcher!" Hua Yuan nodded. He is good at surgery. Of course, he knows how dangerous it is to fiddle with patients sometimes. It is really necessary to have a stretcher.


    "In addition, the ambulance also needs to be equipped with a general practitioner, a nurse, a coachman and all the necessary medicinal materials!" Merton asked Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan to act as doctors and assistants, lying there playing the role of the patient.


    "It''s really good!"


    When Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan entered the carriage, they found that the space inside was very spacious, and a small space was almost used to the extreme.


    Merton is also well intentioned. He specially asked Mo Wu to prepare all the items used to save people at ordinary times, which made the two elders full of praise.


    Even so, after all, many modern first-aid equipment of later generations have not arrived at this time, so the most important first-aid method is to let doctors arrive as soon as possible.


    "Drive!"


    Tie an, the coachman, drove the carriage skillfully.


    "Herod!"


    Four horses were flying with four hoofs and driving out of the hospital quickly.


    The carriage drove on the Qingshiban Road on the streets of Chang''an city. The three people in the carriage didn''t feel bumpy at all. You know, this era is not a flat cement asphalt road of later generations, and the wheels have no air tires of later generations. They are solid wooden wheels. It''s ok if you walk slowly at ordinary times. If you run so fast, you can spit out your next night''s meal.


    "This is Uncle Zhang''s latest achievement, shock absorption." Merton explained that the shock absorption facility is actually the simplest arc iron sheet, which uses the principle of iron sheet tension for shock absorption.


    Even so, the best steel in Mojia village was produced with the best technology. After all, the steel-making technology in this era is not qualified, and even the spring has not been solved.


    "Fast and stable! It is really the most conducive to the stability of patients'' condition and achieve the purpose of first aid." Sun Simiao praised.


    "Tie''an, be careful! This is a busy city. Don''t run so fast!" Hua Yuan warned anxiously when he saw the regressing street behind him.


    "Hua Lao, don''t worry! The car designed has brakes." tie an shouted outside.


    "Brake?" old Hua looked at Merton with a puzzled face.


    "If the carriage is running and something happens in front of it, it can stop in time to avoid an accident!" Merton explained.


    At this time, just passing by an intersection, tie an gave a cry, only heard a harsh friction sound, and the carriage stopped steadily.


    "The brakes need to be improved!" Merton said with a smile. The sound was too loud.


    "It would be nice to stop!" old Hua was not disappointed, but he had seen too many cases of seriously injured carriages. Even the harsh sound was better than an accident. Besides, saving people is like fighting a fire. The ambulance must be running too fast. With this brake device, the ambulance can run safely.


    At this time, there was a riot in the front right. A carriage was too fast and collided with the carriage in front. The scene was in chaos.


    "Someone''s hurt! Bleeding!


    "Help!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There was a panic ahead, and there was a constant cry for help.


    "Someone is injured? Get out of the car and have a look." old Hua Huoran got up and said, and Sun Simiao followed.


    When the ambulance door opened, Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao hurried to the scene of the accident with the first aid kit. Behind them, Merton and tie an followed closely with a stretcher.


    "Get out of the way quickly, the doctor of Mo hospital is here!" Merton yelled when he saw that there were too many onlookers.


    "Doctor of Mo hospital?"


    Ink hospital represents the highest medical skill in Chang''an city. With the doctors of ink hospital, it represents the hope of life. As soon as they heard this, they immediately made way.


    In the crowd, in front of the collapsed carriage, a middle-aged woman holding a unconscious man was crying. Several wounded people were lying on the ground wailing, and the blood on the ground flowed all over the ground.


    "Doctor, you must save my husband!"


    The middle-aged woman heard the arrival of the doctor in Mo hospital and begged in an urgent voice.


    "Don''t worry, we will do our best!" Hua Yuan said softly.


    The two elders acted separately. Sun Simiao left you a light wounded to wrap up, and Huayuan focused on treating the unconscious strong man.


    The two old people were skilled doctors who soon stopped the wound, and the strong man woke up leisurely under the treatment of Hua old.


    "Thank you, doctor!" the middle-aged woman thanked again and again.


    "His condition has just stabilized and needs further treatment." Hua Yuansong gasped.


    "Follow the doctor''s orders!" the middle-aged woman quickly nodded.


    Merton and Tie''an jointly put the strong man on a stretcher and sent him to an ambulance. The middle-aged woman followed him.


    "Tiean, open the way!" Merton shouted.


    "Yes, young master!" said tie an.


    When the carriage turned, Tie''an grabbed an iron whistle and blew it out. For a moment, the sharp whistle sounded through the streets of Chang''an city.


    Ambulances from later generations appeared in Chang''an City for the first time.

 Chapter 190

    "Gifts? You mean that Merton boy came to give me gifts!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin looked at Xi Junmai who came to report in surprise!


    "Return to your majesty. Now Lord Mo is waiting outside the palace." Xi Jun bought a way.


    "Oh! If you don''t want to be courteous, you''ll steal. This boy won''t get into trouble again!" Li Shimin said with a smile.


    "Hmm? According to the report from Baiqi, Lord Mo hasn''t done anything unusual recently. Otherwise, Weichen will go and refuse him!" Xi Jun thought.


    "No, since he''s here, let him in!" said Li Shimin.


    To tell you the truth, Li Shimin probably wouldn''t have seen ordinary people, but what Merton did was good for the country and the people. Li Shimin was still very curious about what Merton could send in person.


    Soon, Merton led four horses and a luxurious four-wheel carriage to the Tai Chi hall. Riding is prohibited in the Imperial Palace, even the carriage. Merton naturally won''t make this taboo.


    "The gift of a carriage!" Li Shimin was stunned when he looked at the four-wheel carriage and looked at Merton. It seems that Merton has caused a lot of trouble! It cost so much.


    Merton''s face darkened when he heard the speech and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood. The gift given by Weichen is this carriage."


    "Carriage?" Li Shimin was suddenly embarrassed. Only then did he find the strange looking four-wheel carriage.


    Li Shimin remembered that in the secret newspaper a few days ago, the news of the ambulance of Mo hospital in Chang''an city seemed to be a four-wheel carriage.


    "When Wei Chen was designing an ambulance for the Mohist hospital, he suddenly realized that not only patients don''t like bumps, but ordinary people don''t like the bumps of carriages. Even Wei Chen would rather ride a horse than take a car far away every time he returns to the Mohist village. So the boy had a whim and made a four-wheel carriage for ordinary people. His majesty manages everything every day. He likes to visit the people at ordinary times. There is this one The comfortable and smooth carriage will certainly not suffer from bumps again, "Morton flattered.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin suddenly became curious.


    Merton led Li Shimin to the carriage, opened the door, exposed the soft collapse inside and Merton''s imitation leather wrapped seats, and explained the advantages of the four-wheel carriage one by one.


    Li Shimin tried to sit on the leather wrapped seat. He suddenly felt soft and his back was perfectly held. He sat for a long time to deal with official documents. His already exhausted body suddenly relaxed.


    "Eh!"


    Li Shimin was surprised and couldn''t help but move his body. The original fatigue suddenly disappeared.


    "Oh! You have a heart!" Li Shimin also moved in his heart. He is a gentle and weak emperor who has lived in the deep palace for a long time. He often travels and knows the bumps of the carriage. Sometimes he would rather ride a horse than take a bus. However, as the Emperor, the safety of the world is related to him, sometimes he has to ride in the carriage.


    "Your Majesty, this carriage seems comfortable, but your majesty still focuses on safety. If you don''t ask the Royal Horse supervisor to copy this carriage and build it separately," Xi Jun advised.


    You should know that the emperor''s chariots and horses are first-class from wood to workmanship. Although Merton''s four-wheel carriage has novel style, its material is unknown and its workmanship is rough. It can''t compare with the workmanship of the Royal Horse supervisor. Moreover, the emperor always put safety first in driving out the car, and the material selection is first-class good wood, while the wood in front of Mojia village is valuable wood.


    "General Xi is out of sight now. The carriage under is made of the best wood in the world!" Merton shook his head and retorted.


    "The best wood?"


    Not only did Xi Jun buy this, but even Li Shimin was stunned.


    "Merton, you can talk big. I haven''t seen any valuable wood in the Imperial Palace, but I''ve never seen such wood like you. Is it that the Royal Horse supervisor deceived me?" Li Shimin said displeased.


    Besides, if he really this kind of wood, but the Royal Horse supervisor doesn''t give it to him, where will he be placed?


    Merton immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood. It''s not the fault of the Royal Horse supervisor, but that the wood is too hard to cut. How can it be made into a carriage."


    "Too hard? How hard?" Li Shimin asked.


    Merton''s face was solemn and said, "this wood is invulnerable."


    "Invulnerable?" Li Shimin exclaimed.


    "Lord Mo is joking. It''s just a piece of wood. Isn''t it harder than steel!" Xi Jun said sternly, looking at the carriage in front of him.


    "Harder than iron, stronger than steel!" Merton humored himself.


    "Merton, do you know that if you talk nonsense, it''s the crime of bullying the king." Li Shimin snapped.


    "General Xi has a sword in his hand, but just try." Merton said confidently.


    Xi Jun, who is willing to believe that there is still wood harder than steel in the world, couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. He also wanted to know whether there was such hard wood in the world.


    "Your Majesty, please step back!"


    After Xi Jun bought it, he slowly took out the horizontal knife, tied up the horse step, held the knife in both hands and slowly accumulated strength.


    He doesn''t believe that there is such hard wood in the world. For the emperor''s safety, he must experiment himself, otherwise, if something happens, none of them can run away.


    "Hey!"


    Xi Jun bought the horizontal knife in his hand and cut it hard into the carriage. Suddenly, a sound of gold and iron came. Xi Jun bought only felt the huge rebound attack, which almost made him unable to hold the horizontal knife. He couldn''t help but stagger back three steps.


    "How could it be?" Xi Junmai looked at a white mark behind the carriage and was stunned.


    Li Shimin also gathered together and looked at the white marks on the wood. He was surprised to grow up. You know, the horizontal knife in Xi Jun''s hand is the standard weapon in the palace, and the best steel is used.


    Coupled with the strength Xi Jun bought, he only cut a white mark on the wood without even breaking the skin.


    "Let me come!" Li Shimin said incredulously.


    Thirty feet away, Li Shimin held a strong crossbow, aimed at the back carriage of the carriage and pulled the trigger. The lethal force of the strong crossbow is the strongest at this distance.


    "Buzz!"


    Suddenly, the crossbow and arrow with a whistling sound collided with the back carriage of the carriage.


    "When!"


    A dull crash came, and the crossbows and arrows clattered to the ground, but they were not stuck on it.


    Li Shimin put down the strong crossbow and came to the carriage. When he saw that the arrow of the crossbow had been twisted, but the board was still intact, he couldn''t help praising: "it''s really harder than iron and stronger than steel."


    "In addition to the eight bull crossbow, Weichen really can''t think of anything that can destroy this wood." Xi Jun bought this time and was completely convinced.


    The eight bull crossbow is a heavy weapon in the army. It needs eight people to move. It can''t appear outside the battlefield. In other words, the carriage offered by Merton has almost no weapons to threaten.


    This is the most suitable carriage for the emperor.


    "There are such strange trees in the world!" Li Shimin also sighed.


    "This is iron birch, which is widely distributed in Koguryo. It is also distributed in the Suzhou Hangzhou generation of the Tang Dynasty. Its material is hard and sinks when it enters the water. It is even harder than steel. It is called the king of wood." Merton Lang said.

 Chapter 191

    The iron birch was accidentally discovered by Mojia village when it was developing the Luoyang market. At that time, it was just prepared to be published in the ink journal as an anecdote. After Merton accidentally saw it, he immediately cut it off and asked Xu Jie to secretly transport the iron birch back.


    This iron birch is a businessman from Suzhou and Hangzhou. Seeing that the wood is hard, he originally wanted to pull it to Luoyang as a strange thing to make a fortune, but he didn''t think he could not even cut it. All his pants were lost. The Mohist accepted it and saved him.


    After the Mohists came back, they also worked hard to face such abnormal and hard iron wood. They gathered the strength of the whole village and used a special cutting tool to cut the iron birch into this carriage.


    "OK, what a king of wood!" Li Shimin said with ecstasy. This carriage is too much to his taste. It is low-key, comfortable and safe. It is simply the best choice for Yulong white clothes.


    "Congratulations, your majesty!" Xi Junmai congratulated.


    With this carriage, it can be said that the work of escorting Li Shimin has been directly reduced by less than half. At least as long as you are in the carriage, you don''t have to worry about the cold arrows outside. Even if there is an emergency, as long as you close the carriage, you can naturally hold on to enough time to wait for the arrival of rescue.


    "Today''s test can only be known among the three of us!" Li Shimin said coldly.


    "Yes!" said Xi Junmai.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. There is only one iron birch Trojan horse in the world," Merton promised.


    In fact, even if Li Shimin doesn''t say, Merton doesn''t intend to be the next car. The hard iron birch is just abnormal. In addition to being attractive to the emperor, it has little practical significance to others. Only one car in the world is enough.


    "Hmm!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. He looked at Merton more and more. It didn''t waste his secret care for Merton. When the boy had good things, he thought of him at the first time.


    "Well, the gift has been delivered, and you can go!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Ah!"


    Merton opened his mouth and drove himself away? It''s not so fast to cross the river and tear down the bridge!


    "Why are you still busy?" Li Shimin asked with a suppressed smile. He knew that Merton didn''t go to the three treasures hall without anything. Since he gave gifts, he must ask for something.


    "Er!"


    Merton didn''t know that his little 99 had been seen through by Li Shimin. I have to tell the truth.


    "Didn''t Wei Chen help doctor sun build an ambulance?" Merton said sadly.


    "Well, that''s a good thing!" Li Shimin nodded. The ambulance has been wearing a lot in Chang''an city these days, especially when the police whistle rings, it represents a human life!


    "However, in a few days of experiment, a problem was found. If someone had a sudden disease, the informant went to the Mexican hospital, and the Mexican hospital used an ambulance to pull the doctor, it would be too late," Merton explained.


    Li Shimin frowned. This is really a problem.


    "So, you''ve thought of a way?" Li Shimin said. Since Merton had asked for a door, naturally there was a solution.


    Merton nodded: "Weichen gathered the skilled craftsmen in Mojia village and finally thought of a way to deal with it. Weichen is ready to establish an early warning system for the whole city. Please approve it."


    "The whole city''s early warning system?" Li Shimin didn''t understand.


    Merton explained: "the whole city is the whole Chang''an City, and the early warning is the advance warning. For example, there is a disease in Quchi square. As long as there is the whole city early warning system, the Mexican hospital can know that the ambulance can arrive at Quchi square in two quarters of an hour."


    "Ten breaths?" Li Shimin exclaimed.


    Quchi square is the most Southeast folk square in Chang''an city. It is the poorest square in Chang''an city. It''s impossible to get the news from Quchi square to Mo hospital in ten breath time.


    "Yes, as long as ten breath time is enough, the patient must wait for the ambulance in Quchi square," Merton said firmly.


    "Do you know what you''re talking about?" Li Shimin asked ferociously. How incredible it would be to use such a fast tool to deliver messages.


    "Wei Chen will naturally be responsible for what he said!" Merton said confidently.


    "If Mohism can really build an early warning system for the whole city, I''ll write it down for you!" Li Shimin said excitedly. As long as there is such a system, as long as something big happens, you can get the news in an instant. What a magical thing it will be.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Merton said excitedly. With this early warning system, the Mexican hospital is really perfect. In the future, it will be 100 times more convenient for people in Chang''an city to seek medical treatment.


    "But there is one more thing for your majesty to decide!" Merton hesitated.


    "But please tell me, I''ll think about it." Li Shimin said excitedly at a time of excitement.


    "I inform your majesty that many patients are mostly sick at night, but there is a curfew in Chang''an city. I wonder if your majesty can make an exception and allow ambulances to rescue people at night," Merton said.


    For a long time, China''s rulers have followed the principle of "work at sunrise and rest at sunset", which is mainly reflected in the curfew in cities, especially in capitals.


    The curfew in Chang''an city is a strategy that has been implemented since it became the capital. It is particularly strictly enforced. Personal actions on high winds and dark nights are usually considered to be connected with bad behaviors such as theft, theft and going to brothels, and even considered as conspiracy.


    In this era, if it were not for dignitaries, it would be a very high risk to go on the street at night. Merton didn''t want the ambulance to roar past. As a result, they were all stopped by night patrol officers and men, delaying his illness.


    "Of course, all night attendance of ambulances in Mo hospital will be strictly recorded and will not participate in anything irrelevant to saving people," Merton promised.


    "OK, I agree!" Li Shimin replied without hesitation.


    "Ah!"


    Merton looked up.


    "Why, you think I''m such an old-fashioned man." Li Shimin pretended to be angry. "Besides, do you think a carriage of people and horses can turn up many waves?"


    Compared with this small risk, it is hardly worth mentioning for the future benefits of the whole process early warning system.


    "The whole city''s early warning system must do the same for Wannian county government." Li Shimin pondered for a moment and put forward a request.


    Merton''s eyes lit up and nodded. In fact, he certainly knew how important this system was to the county government. It is estimated that since then, whenever a case occurred in a place, the Constable of Wannian county government will arrive at the first time, which will be of great benefit to the public security of Chang''an city.


    Of course, this idea can''t be put forward by the Mohists. Merton knows that Wannian county government will naturally come to the door just by showing the advantages of the city''s early warning system. However, he didn''t expect that Li Shimin was so keen that he wanted to set up it simultaneously.


    "It would be more perfect if we could connect with the fire government office again!" Merton added, and there was no need to hide at this time.


    "Mo hospital, county government office, fire government office!" Li Shimin thought carefully and his eyes lit up immediately.


    It is conceivable that once such an early warning system is built, it will be earth shaking changes for Chang''an city.

 Chapter 192

    Chang''an, as the greatest city in the world, has countless new things every day.


    However, recently, something happened in the whole Chang''an city that puzzled everyone, that is, beside the streets of Chang''an City, a group of strong men in Mohist costumes are digging holes along the streets.


    After digging the pit, erect a long thigh thick wooden pole into the pit. These wooden poles have been treated with anti-corrosion treatment and are valuable. They are usually good materials for building houses, but now they are buried on the ground.


    Of course, this strange move will cause the dissatisfaction of residents along the street. It''s a good place at your door. How can you dig a big pit and build a pole!


    "No! This is my place. You can''t dig a hole here!"


    In Anye square, a middle-aged woman blocked the construction team in Mojia village.


    "Elder sister! I''m digging beside the official road!" Mo Si said with a wry smile.


    This time, Merton handed over the team of Mojia village to Mo Si. The boy''s muscles don''t have to dig a hole. It''s a waste.


    "That''s not good either. Compared with my family, it''s unlucky!" the middle-aged woman said arrogantly.


    Although the government has continuously eliminated superstition, there are still many taboos among the people. In fact, this phenomenon is not only in the Tang Dynasty, but also in later generations.


    "Elder sister, if I don''t step back, I won''t delay your trip!" Mo Si explained.


    "That won''t work! Just follow my home." the middle-aged woman disagreed.


    "Elder sister, we work for Mo hospital. Once it is completed, once someone in your family is ill, we don''t have to go to Mo hospital. Directly under the wooden pole, we can notify the ambulance of Mo hospital, which is a matter of human life." Mo Si explained.


    "Bah! Your family is just sick!" the middle-aged woman''s face changed and her anger became more angry. She couldn''t listen to the explanation at all.


    Under the meddling of middle-aged women, the whole construction team was forced to stop.


    At this time, there were many onlookers around, pointing out one after another.


    "Mo hospital is the best hospital in Chang''an city. Dr. Sun and Dr. Hua are famous living immortals. Which one in Chang''an City has not received the favor of Mo hospital, how could she stop the work of Mo hospital!"


    "Yes, this bitch is usually domineering. I didn''t expect to be so confused!"


    "Moreover, if the wooden pole can''t be laid, the road will be abandoned. Isn''t it that when we have something to do in the future, the ambulance can''t come? It''s not killing people!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The surrounding neighbors pointed out one after another, and suddenly said that the middle-aged woman''s face was green and red.


    After a while, the owner of Anye square also came to see the news. His heart trembled at the sight of this situation. He had already received a notice about the Mohist early warning system in the whole city, but it was formulated to cooperate fully. If there was a problem here, I''m afraid he couldn''t afford to go.


    "Lin Shi, setting up this wooden pole is not the business of Mo hospital. Mo hospital, county government and fire government all participate in it. If you forcibly block it and are caught by a constable, don''t blame me for not reminding you." the owner of Anye square immediately called the middle-aged woman aside and said that she was powerful.


    The middle-aged woman trembled when she heard that it was related to the county government. She dared to make trouble with the Mo hospital, but she was in awe of the government, so she had to go down the slope and acquiesce in it.


    The same thing happened from time to time in Chang''an City, but with the support of various Lifang and the deterrent power of the county government, the project of laying wooden poles was promoted rapidly.


    Then, Mo Si led a construction team to connect the special organs of Mohism with iron wires, connecting wooden poles one by one. From a high altitude, it is like a huge cobweb, converging into three centers. One is mo hospital, the other is fire government yamen, the other is fire power, and the other is Chang''an County Yamen.


    While the whole city''s early warning system was officially built, rumors about the whole city''s early warning system were also spreading.


    "You see, every wooden pole has three iron wires connecting three organs, corresponding to Mo hospital, fire administration and county government. As long as the organs are pulled down under any wooden pole, these three places will receive information at the first time and come as soon as possible."


    Under a wooden pole, many people gathered and talked. An idle man pointed to the three handles on the wooden pole and said.


    "Ah! So powerful!" they exclaimed.


    "It''s more than fierce. According to the news from the county government, the county magistrate has issued an order. As long as the county government gets the news, the constable must arrive within two quarters of an hour, or he will be punished." Xianhan added.


    "That''s great. In this way, how can those sneaky people in Chang''an city be rampant!" they were excited.


    The whole city of Chang''an has become a sensation because of the city''s early warning system. Such an efficient and fast model appeared in Datang for the first time, which makes Chang''an citizens look forward to it.


    As the sun sets, the human figures on the streets of Chang''an city are gradually scarce. It''s time for a curfew. If you don''t go back, you may spend the night in the squad room tonight if you meet the soldiers on patrol.


    An Yefang is beside an ordinary street.


    Merton and two old men in official clothes are standing respectfully in front of a strange looking four-wheel carriage. Obviously, there is only one such carriage in Chang''an City, and it is obviously Li Shimin in the car.


    The two old men are the magistrate of Chang''an County and the director of fire administration. At the moment, they look at Merton with gratitude. If it were not for Merton''s early warning system, how could they have close contact with the emperor with this opportunity.


    Today is the day for testing the city''s early warning system. In order to ensure the effect, Li Shimin specially chose a wooden pole of anyefang at random.


    "Tell the emperor, the time has come!" Merton whispered into the carriage.


    "Let''s start!" Li Shimin''s lazy voice came from the carriage.


    "Yes!"


    The three were ordered to go to the wooden pole one after another. One of them took a handle, pulled out the insurance measures and pulled it down with force.


    In an instant, under the action of force, iron wires are connected to the wooden pole, which will instantly sense the mechanism of the wooden pole. The mechanism acts one by one and quickly transmits it to the outside.


    Soon, MOH hospital, county government and fire government received the information and set out immediately.


    At the time of incense burning, the ambulance of Mo hospital arrived. Dr. Sun took the ambulance himself to test the early warning system.


    "Doctor sun worked hard!"


    As soon as Li Shimin saw doctor sun get off the bus, he immediately greeted him.


    "Your Majesty is serious. The grass people are really an eye opener. The early warning system is really a blessing for hundreds of millions of patients!" Sun Simiao said with emotion. In the face of such medical achievements in Chang''an City, Sun Simiao''s mind to leave Chang''an City has long disappeared. This is the Holy land of medicine.


    Li Shimin was also a burst of pride. It was a valuable thing that he could get Sun Simiao''s appreciation.


    "Doctor sun, let''s have a rest. What''s wonderful is still behind?" Li Shimin said proudly.


    In a quarter of an hour, the Constable of the county government arrived under the leadership of Cao Li.


    Two quarters of an hour later, the fire government yamen arrived with a waterwheel.


    The first experiment of the city''s early warning system surprised the whole Chang''an city.

 Chapter 193

    "Ink technology!"


    When the city''s early warning system first showed great power in Chang''an City, the people of Chang''an City really realized the power of ink technology.


    Ten miles apart, it can arrive in an instant. This is something that no one dared to think of before. It has played a great power in the operation of the early warning system in the whole city for only ten days.


    "Woo!"


    A Mexican hospital ambulance blew a sharp whistle, and the people who came and went consciously gave way. After several days of publicity, everyone knows that as long as the ambulance of the Mexican hospital goes out, it represents a human life.


    Among the many people who gave way, a four-wheel carriage similar to an ambulance was also among them. Li Shimin and Wei Zheng sit side by side in the car, and the comfortable back chair is extremely comfortable.


    It has to be said that the four-wheel carriage made by Merton is too deceptive and inconspicuous from the appearance. Although the interior is exquisite, it is not expensive, but exquisite workmanship. Even a straight minister like Wei Zheng can''t find a reason to advise.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. The people are good. It''s your Majesty''s credit for educating the world." Wei Zheng moved comfortably and looked at the street gradually returning to normal.


    This year, Wei Zheng''s health is much worse than before. Although after the diagnosis and treatment of doctor sun, he is not as terminally ill as in history, his health is still deteriorating.


    Seeing that Wei Zheng was tired, Li Shimin took a car with him and came out to observe the people''s feelings.


    "Human life is vital, and the Mohist hospital has done its part!" Li Shimin said with emotion.


    I have to say, who could have thought that with the support of Mohism, doctors should make such proud achievements.


    In the whole Chang''an City Street, the ambulance will not avoid seeing the officials, but the officials will give way. This is an order given by Li Shimin himself.


    It has only been running for a few days. The fire administration department has dispatched three times, two of which were in danger. The last time the fire was too busy. If the fire engine of the fire administration hadn''t arrived in time, I''m afraid the whole street would be uninsured. You know, the buildings in this era are all wooden buildings. In case of a fire, it would be burning even the camp.


    Ambulances were dispatched 50 times, that is, 50 lives were carefully treated by MOH hospital.


    Chang''an County Government has dispatched 120 times in total. People in Chang''an city are full of praise for such an efficient case handling speed. It can be imagined that when the three-year deadline expires, Cao Li, the magistrate and Constable of Chang''an County, will be promoted to the next level.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Wei Zheng sighed heartily.


    In essence, he is an out and out Confucian. He deposed a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, but it is imprinted in his bones. It can be said that before that, he did not look down on any one of them.


    However, after Li Shimin left the Mohist School in Chang''an City, the power of the Mohist school first appeared in front of the world for the first time. People knew for the first time that a hundred schools were not indispensable.


    Today''s doctors are so brilliant, but they are only a benchmark supported by Mohism, and the real Mohism has already extended its tentacles to every corner of Chang''an city.


    The four wheeled carriage is still a rare thing in Chang''an city. It is like a car in the 1950s and 1960s. No matter how simple Merton''s appearance is, it still attracts people''s attention.


    South Gate of Chang''an City


    Li Shimin stopped the carriage and walked with Wei Zheng to a small market outside the south gate.


    Although Chang''an City has two cities, East and West, it is only a place where regular businessmen gather. People outside Chang''an city come to pick local specialties to sell in Chang''an city. They generally don''t go deep into the city. They usually gather and sell spontaneously not far from a city gate. Once they are sold out, they will go back immediately, otherwise it will be late at night when they get home.


    The small market was full of Hawking, and there was a lot of noisy Hawking around.


    Li Shimin and Wei Zheng walked in the market, squatting down from time to time, asking about the price and beating around the bush.


    "Two masters, do you want to buy live chickens? Authentic Mojia village chicken seedlings." an old woman wrapped in a flower cloth scarf placed more than a dozen and a half cocks in front of her, looking for food on the ground one by one.


    Wei Zheng looked at these roosters and asked curiously, "you chickens haven''t grown up yet. Why did you buy them? Are you in urgent need of money at home?"


    The old woman smiled at the speech: "I don''t know. My wife has been raising chickens for decades, but she clearly knows that chickens grow fastest in the first four months, but if you feed them again in four months, they will grow slowly and eat more, which will outweigh the gains. If the hens are good and can lay eggs, the sooner these cocks sell, the better, and the four month old chicken is tender It''s very. It''s a first-class good material to make fried chicken. "


    Li Shimin immediately smiled and said, "you old man also knows fried chicken!"


    The old woman was embarrassed and said, "I haven''t eaten that kind of precious thing. Didn''t I listen to the chicken seller in Mojia village?"


    Wei Zheng looked around the market and found that there are many rural people in the whole market, similar to old women carrying chickens and ducks into the city. From time to time, people come forward to ask for the price to buy it. The demand for meat in Chang''an city is endless, and how many people enter Chang''an city will be digested. Unfortunately, there is no vaccine now, large-scale breeding is almost impossible, and can only be carried out by relying on the strength of the masses Large scale free range breeding.


    "Do you want to, sir? If you don''t, I''ll sell these live chickens to Mojia village and change some chickens back." the old woman pointed to the stall in Mojia village next to me.


    The stall in Mojia village is the largest of all stalls. Many farmers like old women go to buy an iron pot after selling their goods. The iron pot in Mojia village is the lightest, exquisite, high quality and low price, which is very popular.


    Or take home a few chicken, duck and goose cubs. This is a time when there is plenty of food. As long as the cubs are put outside the things, they will naturally go home in the evening when they are full.


    Or give your children a few pencils, one for a penny, one for saving, enough for half a month.


    Chicken, duck and goose! Eggs, Songhua eggs, salted duck eggs, iron pot. While Li Shimin and Wei Zheng walked around the market and gained a lot, they also found that all Mohist products have been integrated into the life of Chang''an people.


    During the busy farming season, the Quyuan plow in Mojia village was used to cultivate the land. When the land was dry, the killing well invented by Mojia was used for irrigation.


    During the slack season, buy chicken, duck and goose cubs from Mojia village, make Songhua eggs and salted duck eggs with the methods provided by Mojia village, and maybe sell them to Mojia food city.


    Ink technology has brought changes to the whole Chang''an city. Some changes are earth shaking like the city''s early warning system, and some changes can take a long time to produce effects, but no matter who has to admit that these changes are on the bright side.


    Ink technology has quietly integrated into the life of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 194

    In the Tang Dynasty, the horse is the most important means of transportation. However, not everyone can ride a horse, and it''s easy to get tired after riding for a long time. If it''s not for the strong people, they can''t bear it at all, so there is the saying that civilian officials ride in sedans and military officials ride horses.


    But not everyone is satisfied with their mount. Although the speed of riding is fast, it is good in summer. If you encounter a cold winter, it will kill people.


    Although it''s comfortable to sit in a sedan chair, it''s extremely slow. If it''s OK in a short time and sitting in a sedan chair for a long time, it''s estimated that you should have super patience.


    Isn''t there a carriage? ha-ha! Running makes you scared.


    When a comfortable and fast carriage appeared in this blank market, it can be imagined how much sensation it caused.


    Every time an ambulance roared past Chang''an City, it was a free publicity ride for a four-wheel carriage.


    When the carriage of Mojia village appeared in Chang''an City, it soon set off a wave of carriage.


    With a squeak,


    A brand-new four-wheel carriage stopped in front of the pan restaurant and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    When the carriage door opened, sun Ju Ren and several friends filed down from the carriage.


    "It''s sun Ju Ren, ah! This is sun Ju Ren''s new carriage?" shopkeeper pan quickly greeted him and looked at the brand-new four-wheel carriage and asked with envy.


    "No, just started." Sun Ju said proudly.


    "Sun Ju is rich!" shopkeeper pan complimented. He led sun Ju to the table. Little pan wisely led the coachman to park the four-wheel carriage in the backyard.


    "It cost me 80 yuan at once, and I''m so distressed!" Sun Ju said with exaggeration. Where is heartache? It''s obviously showing off.


    "Isn''t there two more wheels? It''s so expensive?" shopkeeper pan was startled. Ordinary carriages are only a few dollars. Eighty dollars is already the profit of his pan restaurant in a month. This doesn''t mean that Mojia village has been working in his restaurant for a year after selling more than a dozen carriages.


    "Although it''s expensive, it''s really worth it. This carriage is comfortable and convenient. It''s really enjoyable to sit on it." a friend of sun Ju Ren sighed, and other companions nodded one after another.


    "Still Mojia village can do business." shopkeeper pan sighed.


    The same thing happened from time to time in Chang''an city. Before that, Chang''an City valued horses, but once the carriage of Mojia village came out, it directly became a symbol of identity.


    In addition, the huge load of four-wheel trucks caused a great sensation in Chang''an city. The caravan of American Westward Movement imitated by Merton caused a sensation in the business circles of Chang''an city with a load of 5000 kg.


    You should know that an ordinary carriage can pull more than 1000 kilograms to the sky. It usually needs to pull 5000 kilograms of goods two or three times. Now it is also two horses, and one is enough.


    It is conceivable how tempting it will be for businessmen who rely heavily on transportation.


    The four-wheel carriages in the Mohist boutique are in short supply. Finally, there are several carriages left as test carriages. If you want to stock them, you have to book them.


    "Tell the owner that so far, the Mohist boutique has sold 700 four-wheel carriages and 400 four-wheel trucks, including 80 four-wheel carriages and 150 four-wheel trucks." Xu Jie reported excitedly in the Mohist boutique.


    When Mojia village designed an ambulance for Mojia hospital, Xu Jie keenly discovered the business opportunities and immediately asked Mojia village to start manufacturing four-wheel carriages at the same time.


    "OK!" Merton said excitedly.


    Seven hundred carriages are fifty or sixty thousand dollars. Although four-wheel trucks are cheaper, they still have thirty or forty thousand dollars. Coupled with the scheduled expenses, there are 100000 dollars in a short half month. No wonder those automobile companies in the future are rich. This industry is simply profiteering.


    Xu Jie was also too excited to himself. The running water of 100000 yuan was directly equivalent to the sum of Xu''s firm in a year, and Mojia village did it in just half a month.


    Moreover, this is only the input of Chang''an city. If you add the inferior Luoyang City of Chang''an and connect to all parts of the two sides of the Strait through the Grand Canal of Luoyang, what a big market will it be.


    "However, there is one thing, please make a decision!" Xu Jie suddenly thought of something and said with a change of face.


    "Hmm!" Merton looked at it suspiciously.


    "Young master, you''ll know as soon as you see it!" Xu Jie said with a heavy face. He got up and led Merton to a side room in the Mohist boutique.


    "Is this?" Merton looked at a lot of familiar things in the side room and wondered.


    "Young master, please look at this wok!" Xu Jie handed the wok to Merton.


    Merton took it in doubt, stretched out his hand and suddenly felt heavy.


    "This is not a frying pan produced by Mojia village!" Merton said with a heavy face and looked down. There was no sign of Mojia village.


    "As like as two peas, we are not the same as our frying pan, but they are exactly the same as ours." Xu Jie smiled bitterly.


    "Imitation!" Merton''s face sank.


    "Good!" Xu Jie nodded heavily.


    Then Qu Yuanli and the new-style columbine were placed in front of Merton one by one. Even in the end, Xu Jie came to pull out a four-wheel carriage with almost the same shape as that of Mojia village.


    Merton was shocked. He didn''t expect that the other party should be so sharp that even the four-wheel carriage had been imitated. Although he had already known that this situation was inevitable in this era without patents, he didn''t expect to be so rapid.


    "How is the opponent''s skill?" Merton asked.


    "Although it is not as good as that made by Mohism, it does not hinder the use. Take the four-wheel carriage for example. In addition to shock absorption and braking, almost all the other parties can do it. Even the front wheel shaft of the site has been conquered!" Xu Jie said bitterly.


    "Public loser!" Merton said with a gloomy face.


    Xu Jie nodded bitterly and said, "these are spread from the Wang family firm."


    The craft that can reach this point can not be found in the world except Gongshu family. Moreover, Gongshu family is invited by the Wang family. If you want to sell goods, you will naturally go through the channels of the Wang family firm.


    "In addition, there is a strange phenomenon. The price of public losers'' pots is very low. If calculated according to the normal cost, they will almost lose money unless...," Xu Jie said strangely.


    "Unless his iron is cheap!" Merton answered.


    "Yes!" Xu Jie nodded affirmatively. As a businessman, he knew clearly that no one would lose money in business.


    "Chang sun Chong!" Merton affirmed.


    The changsun family controls most of the iron trading in Datang. Only by relying on the changsun family and the public loser can get low-cost iron.


    Merton took a deep breath. He didn''t expect that the other party finally found the weakest link in Mojia village, that is, the products cast by Mojia village are easy to be imitated.


    The impact of a large number of cheap imitations on the market will certainly bring a huge crisis to Mojia village.

 Chapter 195

    "Boss!"


    Xu Jie was shocked when he heard that the three families were united. This time, the situation faced by Mojia village was several times more dangerous than what he faced in those years.


    "Well, it''s not surprising that there are imitations!" Merton shook his head and said. Although the imitations appeared earlier, they were not a disaster.


    "But young master! That''s the alliance of the three!" Xu Jie said.


    "So what?" Morton said proudly. As long as it is fair competition, the Mojia village is not afraid of anyone.


    "Immediately increase the establishment of Mohist boutiques, and every product of Mohist village should have evidence to follow, so as to establish the brand awareness of Mohist village," Merton said.


    "Brand?" Xu Jie wondered.


    Merton smiled and explained: "The brand is like a person''s name. Whenever I want to make the people of the Tang Dynasty think of Mohist products once they mention Mohist village. When they mention the wok in Mohist village, they will feel strong and durable, high quality and low price. When they mention the four-wheel carriage in Mohist village, they will think of precious, elegant and comfortable, so that everyone who owns the products of Mohist village will have a sense of pride."


    If Xu jieruo had an understanding, "produced by Mohist school, it must be a high-quality product."


    "Good!" Merton nodded.


    A good brand can not only make the products of Mojia village invincible, but also feed back, which is more conducive to the image of Mojia village.


    Do public losers know what the three guarantees policy is and what after-sales service is? This crisis is already doomed. Without public losers, Gongsun''s family and Gongyang''s family... May appear prematurely, which is another opportunity for Mojia village.


    Carpenter''s workshop in the east of Chang''an city.


    "The public loser''s craft is really unique!"


    Chang sun Chong looked at the rows of imitation iron pots and four-wheel carriages in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.


    Wang Zhe on one side also showed a satisfied smile. The more public losers copied, the greater the loss of Mojia village.


    "I''m flattered. Gongshu family''s success depends on their full support." Gongshu Hong smiled.


    Take the new type of frying pan as an example. The quality of the frying pan made by the public loser is not as good as that of Mojia village. If it were not for the cost price of changsun''s iron shop to supply steel, we could maintain the advantage of low price, otherwise we would have lost all of it.


    "Has the shock absorption problem of the four wheeled carriage been solved?" asked the eldest sun.


    The iron pot and other things are just small things. What really makes Chang sun Chong pay attention to is the four-wheel carriage in front of him. The four-wheel carriage in Mojia village has earned 100000 yuan in just half a month! It is a shock to Chang''an city. Rao Shi Chang sun Chong is a child of an aristocratic family. Where can he see the huge wealth of 100000 yuan.


    One hundred thousand Guan is to remove the cost. It is still a huge profit. I can''t help but get the eldest son''s heart. Even Wang Zhen is greedy.


    Public loser Hong immediately wondered, "let''s disappoint our eldest grandson. Shock absorbers and brakes are really good imitations, but what really bothers public losers is the materials for making shock absorbers and brakes!"


    "Material?" Wang Zhe frowned.


    Gongshu Hong nodded and said, "the shock absorber and brake devices made in Mojia village are made of special steel, which is very hard and does not deform, which Gongshu can''t do."


    In particular, the shock absorber. Gongshuhong once thought of using ordinary iron material to replace the shock absorber, but it is not elastic at all. Even if you exert too much force, it will soon break from it.


    "As for the four-wheel truck, it doesn''t need shock absorption!" Wang Zhe couldn''t wait to ask.


    Gongshu Hong still shook his head and said, "you don''t know. Although the four-wheel truck used to pull goods doesn''t need shock absorbers, the huge load has higher requirements for the axle wheels. Of course, ordinary wooden wheels can''t support such a heavy weight."


    Chang sun Chong frowned and said, "how did Mojia village make the wheel?"


    "Eldest grandson, please look!" Gongshu Hong stretched out his hand. The Gongshu wheel came over with a wheel. I saw that the wheels were all made of metal, hollowed out in the middle, several huge steel spokes, and the whole wheel was a whole.


    "All iron wheels." Chang sun Chong exclaimed.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "it should be an all steel wheel, and the wheel is extremely hard, and the wheel surface is very wide. With four wheels, the load can reach more than 5000 kg."


    Suddenly, Gongshu Hong suddenly moved in his heart, turned to look at Wang Zhe and hurriedly said, "childe Wang, although the appearance of the four-wheel carriages imitated by Gongshu family last time is similar to that of Mojia village, they can only pull 3000 kg at most. If they are too heavy, they are easy to be damaged. When the Wang family firm sells them to the outside world, it must be explained."


    Wang Zhen felt empty in his heart, his eyes twinkled and said, "don''t worry! Our four-wheel carriage is cheap, and it should be less loaded."


    In fact, Wang Zhe made a lot of money by taking advantage of the carriage boom in Mojia village. Where would he tell the buyer about his shortcomings,


    As for the back account, who dares to make trouble at the king''s house in Taiyuan.


    Although gongshuhong was not at ease, after all, the Wang family was the gold owner of gongshuhong family and would not intervene directly. He had to tell him again.


    "If the public loser also has steel, he can guarantee to make a carriage that is not inferior to the public loser," he sighed.


    "Brother Chang sun! You think you can get some steel through channels!" Wang Zhe looked at Chang sun and rushed.


    Gongshu Hong can''t help but hope that Gongshu can control a large number of iron trading, which is the most likely place to get steel.


    "Steel?"


    Chang sun Chong shook his head. If he didn''t have much steel, Chang sun Chong could certainly get it, but obviously, how much steel to make carriages is not a small number.


    You should know that steel has always been a national heavy weapon, especially the military has unlimited demand for steel. There is very little steel that can flow to the people, and it is valuable. Even if you get steel, it is not worth the loss.


    "For the time being, it''s not a problem to use ordinary iron materials first. It''s not a problem to be stupid or pull small goods. As long as the price has an advantage, naturally someone will buy it!" Wang Zhe said. He has been in the mall for a long time and knows the people''s heart.


    "Just remember that it must be similar to that of Mojia village, and as long as we sell one more car, Mojia village will sell one less." Chang sun Chong said with a sinister smile.


    "It''s natural! But I heard that the Mohist School imported a large amount of iron from the changsun family, and it increased day by day, resulting in the recent sharp rise in the price of urban iron in Chang''an. Should brother changsun also express it?" Wang Zhe said.


    "This is natural! Iron is an important national weapon. How can it be used exclusively for the Mohist family." Chang sun Chong said naturally.


    Datang produces 5000 tons of iron every year. Mojia village has used 30 tons this month. In addition, more than 20 tons of iron pots were consumed before, and 1% of Datang''s iron output was used in half a year. Chang sun Chong has no pressure to restrict the use of iron by Mojia.


    Without the support of iron and steel, how can the four-wheel carriages in Mojia village be produced? It will not be the world of public transport carriages at that time.

 Chapter 196

    Cao Xueqin described Jia Baoyu as saying, "hate iron but not steel!"


    Although it is used to describe people, we can still see the status of iron and steel in the eyes of the ancients.


    Especially in the Tang Dynasty, the annual output of iron is extremely limited, and steel is even more rare. It is usually about five times the price of iron, and it is usually directly supplied to the military, usually with price but no market.


    Therefore, when the four wheeled carriage made of refined steel in Mojia village appeared in Chang''an City, it would cause such a sales frenzy.


    As long as the children of Mojia village point out that the shock absorbers of four-wheel carriages and the wheels of four-wheel trucks are made of refined steel, this business has almost become a success.


    You know, in the Tang Dynasty, which monopolizes steel in this country, the four-wheel carriage with steel parts is almost as valuable as gold and silver in later generations.


    While the carriage of Mohist village swept Chang''an City, the news that Mohist has the secret art of steelmaking has spread all over Chang''an city.


    "The boss! The steward of the Chang Sun family wants to see him!" Xu Jie reported in the Mexican house.


    "Chang sun''s family? Are you sure?" Merton asked suspiciously. You should know that the relationship between Merton and Chang sun Chong is not good. Chang sun Chong has fanned the flames and pierced the needle for the behavior of the Mohist family twice in a row.


    "If I go back to the east house, I have done business with the steward of the changsun family, so I naturally know the steward of the changsun family." Xu Jie determined that he is not only the steward of the changsun family, but also the steward in charge of the foreign affairs of the changsun family. He controls a large number of shops and businesses of the changsun family, and a large number of iron materials bought and sold by the Mohist family are the goods from the steward.


    Merton thought for a moment. He didn''t know what it meant for the eldest grandson''s family to come at this time. He nodded and said, "let him in."


    "See Lord Mo for your eldest grandson!"


    Under the leadership of Xu Jie, a middle-aged man in royal clothes of about 40 came in and bowed to Merton.


    "The eldest grandson is in charge of affairs without ceremony!" Merton said. Although it is said that the seven grade official in front of the prime minister''s door, it is not necessary to pay too much attention to Merton''s current position.


    "I came here today to do business with Lord Mo," said the eldest sun.


    "Business? The business of Mojia village is always in the charge of shopkeeper Xu. If shopkeeper Chang sun has anything to do, just ask shopkeeper Xu!" Merton wondered.


    Xu Jie was also uncomfortable. Chang Sun Quan was really arrogant and went beyond him to do business directly with his boss.


    Chang Sun Quan shook his head and said, "I''m afraid shopkeeper Xu and I can''t decide this business."


    "I don''t know what shopkeeper Chang Sun said about business?" Xu Jie said displeased,


    "The secret of steelmaking!" said Chang Sun Quan solemnly


    Xu Jie was shocked. If he could supply steel, but he could do nothing about the secret of steelmaking, it was the root of Mohism.


    "The changsun family wants the secret of steelmaking?"


    Morton shrunk his eyes and looked straight at the outer room manager of the changsun family in front of him. Obviously, this steelmaking secret is what the changsun family wants.


    Changsun Quan said proudly, "it''s not want, but cooperation. The changsun family controls the largest iron trade in Datang. The Mohist family has the secret art of steelmaking. The cooperation between you and me is a perfect match."


    Xu Jie couldn''t help being moved by Chang Sun Quan''s proposal. From a commercial point of view, it was a win-win situation.


    "As far as I know, steelmaking doesn''t seem to be a difficult task for the changsun family. If the changsun steward doesn''t understand it, Mo can tell the steelmaking methods one by one. Mo will give lessons from whether it''s 100 steelmaking or frying steel, even if it''s pouring steel." Merton said.


    Steel making methods have existed since ancient times. I believe it is impossible for the changsun family not to know these methods.


    Chang Sun Quan shook his head and said, "Lord Mo, why do you pretend to be confused? These steelmaking methods are certainly not a secret to the Chang Sun family. What the Chang Sun family wants is the latest steelmaking secret of the Mohist family, that is, the high round stove in the Mohist village."


    Merton was shocked and stared at Chang Sun Quan with sharp eyes. This blast furnace was transformed by Merton according to the local method of steelmaking in later generations. Although the quality of steel produced by the local method of steelmaking in later generations was not high, it was only in the case of eager for quick success and instant benefit,


    The earth blast furnace transformed by Mohist school has already overcome these shortcomings, and it is much more advanced than the most advanced steel pouring method in this era. Moreover, it saves time and labor, and the tapping rate is doubled. It is the biggest secret of Mohist village.


    Ordinary people only know that Mojia village has the secret of steelmaking, and the changsun family can clearly say the shape of the blast furnace. Obviously, there is a dark line of the changsun family in Mojia village.


    "The eldest grandson family, do you know a lot?" Merton snorted coldly.


    The eldest grandson was not ashamed, but was proud and said, "in Chang''an City, the eldest grandson family doesn''t know many things."


    Merton and Xu jiedun looked embarrassed. This snooping behavior of the Chang Sun family is extremely impolite.


    "Lord Mo, don''t be angry. The Mohists have the best steel-making secret. It''s no secret in Chang''an city." Chang Sun Quan said without emphasis.


    Merton took a deep breath and knew that this was inevitable. Since Mojia village recruited outsiders, some secrets must be hidden.


    However, fortunately, the steelmaking furnaces are in the center of Mojia village. Outsiders can''t restore the steelmaking method even if they see the shape. The real technical core is in the hands of the core disciples of Mojia village.


    "There may be a misunderstanding between the elder grandson and the steward. Since the Mohists have secret skills, they don''t always want to cherish themselves. When the right time comes, the Mohist village will be announced like a live fish secret skill." Merton said.


    Of course, it is impossible to publish the steelmaking technology free of charge. The steelmaking technology is fundamental to the country. At that time, after Mojia village has better steelmaking technology, it will certainly spread this low-level steelmaking technology. It will also be selective, and it will kill them severely. Of course, these later words will not be said to Chang sun Quanming now.


    "I think Lord Mo misunderstood! If Lord Mo spread the secret of steelmaking, the price of steel would not be much more expensive than iron at that time." Chang Sun Quan shook his head and said.


    Rare things are more expensive. At that time, the blacksmiths in Datang will be able to make steel. The price of steel will definitely decline. Where will there be profits at that time.


    "The meaning of the eldest grandson''s family!" Merton wondered.


    The cooperation the changsun family wants is to cooperate with the Mohist family at this moment. If Lord Mo agrees, the steelmaking secret of the Mohist village can be preserved forever. Lord Mo thinks about how much profit it will be if only you and my two families have steel in the whole Datang. " Chang Sun Quan depicts a fascinating scene. As the top family in the Tang Dynasty, what the Chang Sun family wants to grab is monopoly high profits.


    "The eldest grandson''s words are bad. My self-esteem is incompatible with the idea of Mohism." Merton shook his head.


    "Mo Hou ye also must consider carefully, if this matter becomes, the Mohist will get the friendship of the eldest grandson''s family, even the contradiction between the Mohist family and the Wang family of the public losing family, the long Sun family can also mediate from it."


    Merton said with a smile, "you can''t seem to do such a thing!"


    With a smile, the eldest Sun Quan said without embarrassment: "as long as Lord Mo nods, naturally there are enough weight figures to talk with Lord Mo in detail."


    The only people who can say enough weight in front of Merton are changsun Wuji and changsun Chong. Of course, this kind of thing can''t be changsun Wuji, so only changsun Chong.


    "Unfortunately, it''s an honor for the Mohist family to make friends with the eldest grandchildren. The Mohist policy has been set, and it''s impossible to change day and night." Merton sighed.


    There are no eternal friends in the world, only eternal interests. In the face of the high profits of steel, even the eldest grandson''s family can''t help but be moved.


    Merton didn''t expect that Chang sun Chong was a public loser on one side and wanted to pay attention to steel on the other side. He had too much appetite.


    Chang Sun Quan repeatedly persuaded Merton to shake his head firmly.


    "In that case, the changsun family wants to buy a batch of steel from Mojia village." the changsun retreated and asked for the second.


    "That''s natural, as long as the eldest grandson''s family doesn''t sell or use these steels in the competition with Mojia village." Merton pointed out.


    The competitors of Mojia village are only public losers. Now public losers are large-scale imitation iron pots and four-wheel carriages, and all they lack is suitable steel.


    In particular, all the steel used for shock absorption is the combination of hardness and flexibility, which is the highest technology in Mojia village.


    Hearing the speech, Chang Sun Quan immediately stagnated. He immediately knew that the intention of the Chang Sun family was detected by the Mohist school. He became angry and said, "can''t the Mohist school eat alone?"


    Chang sun''s secret skill of steelmaking is really for the four-wheel carriage. The turnover of the four-wheel carriage in Mojia village for half a month is really amazing. Even Chang sun Chong can''t help being moved by it.


    Merton sneered at the speech: "the Mohists have developed their own steelmaking skills. It''s right to eat alone. It doesn''t seem to be a good habit for the eldest grandchildren to get something for nothing!"


    Chang Sun Quan sneered, "although steel is good, it is also made of iron. Since the Mohists want to eat alone, don''t blame the Chang Sun family for tit for tat."


    "Don''t be impulsive. The Mohist family has become the biggest customer of the changsun family. It''s not just the Mohist family that will suffer the loss at that time." Xu Jie said anxiously.


    "Shopkeeper Xu is wrong. The iron materials of the changsun family never worry about selling." changsun Quan sneered.


    Whether it is the position of changsun Wuji or the monopoly position of changsun''s iron firm in Guanzhong, the business of changsun''s iron firm has never been worried. Without Mohism, isn''t there a public loser?


    "Does the eldest grandson family want to cut off the iron supply for the Mojia village like the Taiyuan Wang family?" Merton snorted coldly. These aristocratic families are used to taking advantage of their power recklessly for their own self-interest.


    "It''s not that the changsun family is unkind, but that the Mojia village has continuously purchased iron materials on a large scale. The amount is so shocking. Iron is an important national weapon. The changsun family bears the emperor''s grace and naturally wants to share their worries for you." changsun Quan said proudly.


    Xu Jie''s face was also ugly. He thought of the scene that his Xu firm had no power to fight back in this power. He couldn''t help holding his hands tightly.


    Merton was embarrassed for a while. He was not an ordinary ignorant boy. The iron material recently purchased by Mojia village was more than enough to make 10000 swords. Chang Sun Quan used this as an excuse to block the iron supply of Mojia. He was not afraid to make trouble in Taiji hall.


    "I hope Lord Mo will think about it. It''s not easy for Mojia village to develop like this. Don''t delay a good future. If Lord Mo promises at this time, the changsun family will guarantee the iron supply of Mojia." changsun Quan smiled.


    Chang Sun Quan''s meaning is obvious. If the Mohist family agrees to cooperate with the Chang Sun family, naturally these are not obstacles. If the Mohist village does not agree, for the sake of national security, it will only block the iron supply of the Mohist village.


    "The supply of iron materials and the sale of steel products in Mojia village are recorded. They are aboveboard and not afraid of anyone to check." Xu Jie angrily scolded.


    "It''s your business to be afraid. The eldest grandson''s family only has to consider." the eldest grandson smiled.


    Xu Jie immediately turned his eyes to Merton. Unconsciously, Xu Jie has recognized Merton and regarded him as the backbone.


    "Don''t think about it, and the Mohists will never break their promise," Merton said loudly.


    "I hope Lord Mo doesn''t regret it." Chang Sun Quan took a deep look at Merton and turned away.


    "Young master!" Xu Jie''s face was pale, but he knew that the biggest selling point of Mohist carriage business was fine steel. If there was no iron supply, wouldn''t the carriage business be yellow.


    "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. Take this opportunity to make use of the previous contacts and buy more iron materials for use." Merton waved and said.


    "It''s all right if it''s more expensive. Give priority to ensuring the supply of four-wheel carriages." Merton added.


    "Yes, young master!" said Xu Jie.


    Changsun mansion.


    Chang Sun Quan respectfully stood in front of Chang sun Chong and told the whole story of the trip to Mo house.


    "Mo family son?" the eldest grandson snorted coldly.


    Chang sun Chong is different from Wang Zhe. He is proud, but he will not ignore interests for the sake of face. Moreover, he has a bigger heart. He is not only a four-wheel carriage, but also wants a share of the steel business.


    "Young master, the Mohist family not only refused the cooperation between the two families, but also pointed out that the eldest grandson''s family got something for nothing. It''s really arrogant." the eldest grandson hated.


    "Get something for nothing?" the eldest sun Chong was embarrassed.


    Chang sun Chong is the top dandy in Chang''an City, but no one has ever dared to speak to him like this.


    "The Mohists have the best steel-making secret skills. Whether to use the people of the court to let the Mohists hand over the steel-making secret skills." Chang Sun Quan said insidiously. As long as the Mohists hand over the steel-making secret skills, the Chang Sun family is sure to get them.


    Chang sun Chong shook his head and said, "how can you use the same trick twice, not to mention that Mohist Zi has a good relationship with the military, just like the secret skills of live fish. Once published, which can replicate the miracle of Mohist village.


    Once the secret technology of steelmaking is revealed, the changsun family can get it, and others can get it. At that time, it will be like the secret technology of live fish. Everyone knows that it is impossible to make huge profits with steel. At most, they can make hard money.


    "Eat alone? I''ll show you what eating alone is! The order goes on. The Mohist family has reached the upper limit for purchasing iron materials. After the flow direction of iron materials is not found out, the iron shop of the changsun family will no longer sell iron materials to the Mohist family. At the same time, tell other iron shops about it. I believe other iron shops know how to do it." changsun snorted coldly.


    The changsun family is the most prominent person in Chang''an City, and the changsun Iron Shop accounts for 70% of Chang''an city. Other iron shops rely on the breath of the changsun family. In addition, the hats of the Mohists of the changsun family are not small. Naturally, they will not disobey the ideas of the changsun family at this time.


    In a moment, the situation in Chang''an City rose again.

 Chapter 197

    Yiguo government


    In the martial arts arena, Qin Huaiyu holds a long gun and Qin Qiong holds a sword in both hands. She is gazing at each other.


    "Pa!"


    A drop of sweat fell on the ground. Qin Huaiyu had no time to take care of it. Qin Qiong, as a famous general of a generation, put too much pressure on him. Although he is his own father, he won''t die even if he loses, but the end of losing is just as miserable.


    "Ha ha, brother Huaiyu, I''m here to see you!" Merton''s voice suddenly came from the side.


    Qin Huaiyu subconsciously turned his head when he heard the sound and saw Merton''s malicious smile nearby. He immediately cried out in a bad mood. He hurriedly turned back. He saw a burst of roaring, subconsciously raised his long gun, and felt a burst of strong force. His body involuntarily flew upside down and fell heavily on the edge of the martial arts field.


    "I still haven''t made progress, so I''ll continue to practice today." Qin Qiong succeeded in one move and looked at Qin Huaiyu who fell to the ground like a dead dog.


    "Ah!" Qin Huaiyu immediately wailed. Thinking about the pain of training, he couldn''t help staring at Merton. If this guy hadn''t made trouble, he wouldn''t have been so miserable.


    "Why? Not convinced? You have thousands of reasons to die on the battlefield, and the enemy will listen to you." Qin Qiong taught.


    "Yes, father!" Qin Huaiyu refused.


    Qin Qiong is also helpless. She doesn''t go to the battlefield to experience. It is estimated that Qin Huaiyu society will never understand this truth.


    "Nephew Mo Xian laughed!" Qin Qiong looked at Merton and shook her head with a bitter smile.


    Merton said positively, "I sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. Brother Huaiyu''s hard training today will certainly make some achievements in the future."


    "Sweating more in peacetime and bleeding less in wartime?" Qin Qiong''s eyes brightened and tasted this sentence carefully. Although it was straightforward, it was very reasonable.


    "Huaiyu, with his three legged Kung Fu, it''s still early to go to the battlefield." Qin Qiong shook her head and sighed.


    Merton laughed and said, "my nephew, I''ve been dealing with blacksmiths recently. Blacksmiths shake their heads and sigh every time they come out of the furnace and roll the iron. How good it would be if a furnace of steel. Blacksmiths hate that iron can''t become steel. But they know how iron can become steel without repeated tempering!"


    "Hate iron but not steel!" Qin Qiong thought thoughtfully. She might be in a hurry.


    Qin Huaiyu jumped up from the ground and said repeatedly, "yes, yes, even the refined steel needs to be beaten bit by bit. Father, look at Merton''s visit. I can have a rest today."


    "Nephew Mo Xian, what do you say?" Qin Qiong stared at Merton playfully.


    "Although it is said that martial arts should be practiced in winter and summer, the boy thinks it is necessary to combine work and rest." Merton said without hesitation.


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help but rejoice in his heart and quietly gave Merton a thumbs up. It was brother Mo who stood up for justice.


    "However, my nephew came here today to bring uncle Qin a secret recipe for brother Huaiyu to become steel." Merton said mysteriously.


    "The Mohist art of steelmaking spread all over Chang''an city. I didn''t expect that there was a secret art of refining people into steel!" Qin Qiong said with great interest.


    "You!..." Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help getting angry. Merton did all his bad friends today. First, he hurt his own defeat, and now he came to pit himself.


    "This is a legged sandbag, this is an arm tied sandbag, this is a sandbag vest, and this is a load-bearing backpack..." Merton took out one load-bearing equipment, ignored Qin Huaiyu''s killing eyes, and tied it to Qin Huaiyu one by one.


    Poor Qin Huaiyu, under the pressure of Qin Qiong, once dared not resist, let Merton do it.


    Soon, Qin Huaiyu, who was wearing a martial arts suit, was already full of equipment, and he was very uncomfortable with the heavy sandbags tied around his body., I can''t help moving my body.


    "Is this?" Qin Qiong wondered.


    "This is a weight-bearing training specially made by my nephew for brother Huaiyu," Merton explained.


    "Weight training!" Qin Qiong looked at Qin Huaiyu''s sandbag and nodded. It''s really vivid.


    "Uncle Qin can think about it. If you wear such a heavy sandbag for training at ordinary times, you will still walk like flying. Once you take off the sandbag, you will be so vigorous as flying." Merton simply explained to Qin Qiong the benefits of weight-bearing training.


    Qin Qiong''s eyes lit up immediately. If she persisted in this method, it would certainly increase a person''s strength for a long time.


    "If Huaiyu goes to the battlefield in the future, he has to wear heavy armor, plus various weapons such as swords and guns, the weight is not light. If he meets the expeditionary army, he will suffer a lot. With these heavy-duty training, I believe these are not problems. When the expeditionary army goes tens of miles a day and retreats, the enemy can''t catch up, so he won''t be in an invincible position." Merton patted Qin Huaiyu''s sandbag and said with satisfaction. Of course, this is only under the same conditions between the enemy and ourselves.


    As for Qin Huaiyu''s cannibalism, he selectively ignored it. You know, Qin Huaiyu died in the war later. If his martial arts were higher, maybe the outcome would change.


    "OK!" Qin Qiong nodded with satisfaction. He is a Veteran General in the army. Of course, he knows that what Merton said is true. If this method is feasible, it can be extended to the whole army. I believe that the combat effectiveness of Datang soldiers will certainly rise to a higher level.


    In fact, Datang is not unaware of the benefits of weight-bearing training. The stone lock commonly used in the army is one of them. However, this kind of training is too rough, and there is no systematic planning, which has not attracted people''s attention at all.


    Directing Qin Huaiyu to take a few simple steps, he found that it didn''t affect his walking at all, but his action was a little slow.


    "Come on, I''ll take another move!" Qin Qiong said.


    "Ah!" Qin Huaiyu was shocked! But I dare not refuse.


    "Bang!"


    Before one move, Qin Huaiyu flew out upside down and knocked the weapon rack scattered. The ground was full of weapons. Fortunately, he was covered in sandbags and was not injured.


    "Yes, from now on, you will practice martial arts with a heavy load." Qin Qiong nodded with satisfaction, which determined Qin Huaiyu''s miserable fate in the future.


    "Merton, I hate you!"


    On the martial arts field, Qin Huaiyu, who was like a turtle turning over, with his limbs facing the sky, a shield on his back and a gilt hammer on his head, cried out in grief and anger.


    "Come on, you boy, don''t go to the three treasures hall without anything. You don''t just come to the door to deliver these sandbags!" Qin Qiong said coldly, looking at mojiazi.


    Merton said with a dry smile: "Uncle Qin Mingjian, I''ve heard that brother Huaiyu is practicing martial arts behind closed doors. I''m here to help you. However, martial arts is important to be a master, but it''s the right way to be both civil and military! Brother Huaiyu''s courses in the Imperial college have fallen behind a lot, and Kong Jijiu has urged me many times. Uncle, do you want brother Huaiyu to return to the Imperial College to continue his study?"


    Qin Qiong glanced obliquely at Merton, his face full of disbelief, and Kong offered wine to urge him many times? The sour scholar wished Qin Huaiyu, a troublemaker, was not in the Imperial College?


    However, looking at Qin Huaiyu''s sandbags and Qin Huaiyu''s hopeful eyes, he nodded slowly.


    "You''re not forced by your father. As a general, you must fight in the battlefield in the future, be loyal to your country, and practice martial arts well is your deep-rooted ability to make a life in the future." Qin Qiong said with great sincerity.


    Qin Huaiyu suddenly got up, solemnly nodded and said, "I know that I will practice martial arts more frequently in the future."


    "Go!" Qin Qiong nodded.


    Although Qin Huaiyu is always tossing around with Merton, they are mostly used on the right way. Moreover, Merton sent sandbags and other heavy objects. Qin Huaiyu''s martial arts will be improved in the future.


    Seeing that her son has such a good friend, Qin Qiong is also very relieved.


    Out of the gate of Qin''s mansion, Qin Huaiyu opened her arms and took a heavy breath of free air. Qin Huaiyu suffocated after practicing martial arts behind closed doors for a period of time.


    "Don''t expect me to thank you!" Qin Huaiyu glared at Merton angrily. Although this guy saved himself, he also hurt himself.


    "I don''t know the good people!" Merton bah. He can refine his martial arts in the future. Naturally, he won''t die in battle like in his previous life.


    "By the way, are there any more sandbags?" Qin Huaiyu suddenly asked.


    "Yes? What''s the matter?" Merton didn''t understand.


    "Of course, I''m going to save the two guys together." Qin Huaiyu said gnashing his teeth.


    How can we let him suffer alone.


    "Merton, I hate you!"


    Soon, the Duke of Lu and the Duke of Hubei spread sad voices.

 Chapter 198

    The champion is in the building.


    Chumo grabs a cake and bites off more than half of it. The delicious food spreads from his tongue to the whole nerve, and a satisfactory sound is made in his throat.


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin were like wolves, swallowing delicious food as if they had been hungry for three days. The whole table of delicious food disappeared quickly.


    "As for?" Merton could not help but smack his tongue.


    "If you practice hard every day and don''t let you eat well, try it!" Chumo stammered with something in his mouth.


    The other two nodded again and again. They practiced martial arts every day. They digested a lot, and the food was extremely single. Although it was not bad, it was definitely not delicious. If they had been used to the food of the Mohist Food City, it would be difficult to swallow the food.


    He swallows the delicious food in his mouth. Chumo subconsciously reaches for it, but suddenly stops.


    Merton asked in surprise, "why, it''s not enough. I''ll ask the man to send some more."


    Chumo said bitterly, "forget it! If you eat too much, you''ll suffer yourself."


    Chumo can''t help fighting a cold war when he thinks of the hardships he has suffered during this period of hard training. After all, he doesn''t want to be beaten by his father again and pull him home to practice hard.


    "Hey!"


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also sighed and felt that they would put down the food in their hands.


    Putting down the delicious food, Chumo looks at Merton bitterly and says, "Merton, although you saved us, your moves are too insidious. It''s killing eight hundred enemies and losing one thousand!"


    "Yes!" Wei Chi Baolin nodded heavily, thinking of the heavy feeling of those sandbags tied to his body, he could suffer in the future.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at the two bad friends spitting bitterness, and his heart suddenly balanced.


    "I can still pit you. These sandbags keep you for a year and a half. You have made great progress in martial arts. When you graduate, you will be liberated." Merton bowed.


    "You can really make great progress in martial arts!" Chumo said with half confidence.


    "When will I lie to you!" said Merton.


    "Oh! I''ll keep practicing when I get back!" Chumo nodded.


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded silently. The trust between friends is so simple. Since Merton said it was useful, they just did it.


    "Don''t worry, I''m sure you''ll be surprised," Merton said confidently.


    The most effective way of training, which has been verified in the future, will certainly not disappoint them.


    "I heard that the changsun family is looking for trouble from the Mohists again?" Qin Huaiyu asked casually.


    Chumo and Chumo stop silently and look at Merton. Obviously, they have heard the news.


    Merton smiled and said, "it''s just some small hands. I don''t care at all."


    The three nodded silently. Since Merton said so, he obviously didn''t want them to intervene in this matter.


    Although Merton said so easily, in fact, the situation faced by the Mohists is very dangerous.


    After seeing Qin Huaiyu off, Xu Jie immediately greeted them.


    "Young master, the iron shops in Chang''an city banned the sale of iron materials to the Mohists on the grounds that they used too much iron." Xu Jie frowned and reported.


    Merton raised his eyebrows. It was obviously the eldest grandson''s family who made the move. He asked, "have you ever handed over the records of the Mohist son''s use of iron to the iron bank?"


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "they''ve all been sent, but they''re useless. The iron shop doesn''t look at them at all. It''s just that the excessive use of iron by the Mohists has led to an increase in iron prices. They can''t sell iron to the Mohists without the permission of the government."


    Merton snorted coldly. It was the iron bank that benefited from the rise in iron prices. Obviously, they didn''t dare to offend the long Sun family.


    "What about the leveling department? What do you say?" Merton asked. The leveling bureau is the Datang Price Bureau, which is specially responsible for the prices of the East and West cities.


    "The leveling and Standards Department accepted our iron use records, but it didn''t let go." Xu Jie said reluctantly. Obviously, the influence of the changsun family plays a role in it. The high price is the business of the iron industry. How can the Mohist family be blamed.


    "How much iron do we have in store? How long will it last?" Merton asked.


    Xu Jie calculated and said, "after the owner ordered, Mojia village took the time to buy a large number of iron materials. Now it can only support the cost of one month."


    Merton narrowed his eyes and nodded: "one month is enough! Immediately spread the news in Chang''an City, saying that Mojia village bought iron at a premium of 10%


    "Ten percent?" Xu Jie exclaimed.


    Ten percent is one tenth. You know, the monthly iron cost of Mohism is not a small amount. If you add ten percent, it is not a small amount.


    "People die for money and birds die for food. With 10% of the profits, naturally someone will send the iron material to the hands of Mojia village." Merton sneered.


    "Then we''ve lost too much money!" Xu Jie said heartily.


    "The problem that can be solved with money is never a problem!" Merton said meaningfully.


    After all, Mojia village is not a broken settlement before. Spending a little more money will not hurt the muscles and bones of Mojia village. Moreover, after the iron in Mojia village is converted into steel, the price increases several times, at most making a little less, and it can''t lose.


    "Where''s the leveling department?" Xu Jie hesitated.


    Merton sneered: "the Standards Department can control the selling price and the price we buy."


    "Yes, young master!" said Xu Jie.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, the news that Mojia village purchased iron materials at a premium of 10% spread all over Chang''an city.


    "10% premium?" many people couldn''t help smacking their tongue when they heard the speech.


    Chang''an city is the city with the strongest commercial atmosphere. People are acutely aware of business opportunities while smacking the pride of Mojia village.


    As long as they buy a piece of iron material from the iron shop and sell it to Mojia village, they can make a net profit of 10%. You know, the price of iron is not low. Adding 10% is also a big profit. Where can they find a business that makes money.


    "Drive."


    A four-wheel truck, loaded with a heavy load of iron, slowly drove out of changsun iron.


    Xu blacksmith and his son looked at the full load of iron materials and nodded with satisfaction. The four-wheel truck of the Mohist school is practical. If these iron materials are usually used, they must let their father and son run four or five times. Now it''s too convenient to pull them easily.


    Not far from Dongshi, the son of blacksmith Xu, who was in charge of driving, came up to blacksmith Xu''s ear and underestimated a few words.


    "Seriously?" blacksmith Xu exclaimed.


    "Father, don''t worry, it''s what I heard. Mojia village paid a 10% premium for iron materials." Xu blacksmith''s son looked at a cart of iron materials with hot eyes. These iron materials were at least 40 stone iron materials and more than 4000 kg. If he sold them to Mojia village, he could earn at least five yuan even if he made only 10%.


    That''s five dollars! They worked hard in Xu''s blacksmith shop for a month, but now they can make money only by changing hands.


    "That''s not good. People are gods fighting. Let''s get involved. If we offend the eldest grandson''s family, our father and son won''t be able to eat and walk around." blacksmith Xu shook his head.


    Xu blacksmith''s son said, "although the eldest grandson''s family is the largest in Chang''an City, there are other families. Each of our iron shops only buys one car and sells it to Mojia village. Who can find it."


    Blacksmith Xu hesitated for a moment, and finally his desire for money prevailed. He nodded and said, "let your brothers come together and change one person in each family. Don''t expose the signboard of blacksmith Xu."


    "Yes! Father!" said Xu blacksmith''s son excitedly, driving his carriage outside the south city.

 Chapter 199

    196 when dozens of money were put in front of blacksmith Xu, even the honest blacksmith Xu couldn''t help but be moved by it. In Chang''an City, there were not a few people similar to blacksmith Xu''s master. Soon, the first batch of bastards appeared in Chang''an city.


    "Shopkeeper, load me 300 Jin of iron!" a middle-aged man pulled an ox cart and shouted to Chang sun before he left.


    Hearing the speech, the eldest Sun Quan was stunned and said in surprise, "isn''t this boss Ren of the front street restaurant? How can he sell so much iron!"


    The boss of the vegetable store dialed the vegetable leaves on the ox cart and said with a dry smile, "buy some iron materials and want to make tools."


    "It seems that boss Ren has been doing a lot of business recently!" Chang Sun Quan was stunned when he heard the speech. He was not suspicious. He quickly collected the money and ordered the man to load the car.


    Next, the owner of the cloth shop on the East Street, the owner of the soup and cake shop on the front street,... And so on, as well as an endless stream of ordinary people, large and small, pulled the wooden cart, asked the price and directly paid for the loading.


    This kind of phenomenon is also performed in the major railway lines in Chang''an city. These people buy a large number of goods from the major railway lines in Chang''an City and sell them to Mojia village without risk and with great harvest.


    "Eh, today''s business is particularly good? It''s almost out of stock?" Chang Sun Quan said in surprise, looking at the empty warehouse.


    At the same time, he was secretly proud that even without such a big customer as Mojia village, the iron materials of the eldest sun''s family still had no trouble selling.


    However, a strange phenomenon, Chang Sun Quan was puzzled. After many people bought iron materials, they came to buy them one morning, and the number was more.


    Wondering, Chang Sun Quan hurriedly sent a waiter to inquire quietly.


    "Shopkeeper''s is not good!" a man rushed over.


    "What''s the matter? I''m flustered." Chang Sun Quan Xun scolded.


    "No, it''s rumored everywhere in Chang''an that Mojia village buys iron at a premium of 10%?" the man said anxiously.


    "What? Mojia village bought iron materials at a premium of 10%." Chang Sun Quan''s face was full of iron. Of course, he knew the purpose of his childe''s restriction on the supply of iron materials in Mojia village. If the Mojia village was so easy to break, the consequences would be needless to say. What''s the face of Chang sun Chong.


    "I see!" the eldest sun felt a great hatred in his heart. No wonder business is so prosperous today.


    "Hurry! Seal up all the iron materials and don''t sell them." Chang Sun Quan hurried to remedy it.


    "Yes!" the man quickly terminated all the transactions of the iron bank.


    "What, don''t sell it. My family urgently needs iron materials." the boss of the restaurant said discontentedly.


    The eldest Sun Quan suddenly looked upset. You''ve been here three times in a row. Each time it''s a different excuse. Your family can''t use so much iron even if you make all things into iron.


    Soon, the worse news came. Except for the changsun iron store, other small iron stores didn''t even have time to respond and sold out of stock directly.


    In the iron line of changsun''s family, changsun was sweating and anxious. He kept urging the accounting room to say, "have you got the statistics? How much iron material has been imported into Mojia village?"


    "Tell the shopkeeper, according to the small statistics, the major iron stores sold at least 800000 kg of iron materials in just one day. As for how many fell into the hands of Mojia village, I don''t know." the accounting room of the changsun family wiped it with a cold sweat.


    800000 Jin of iron material, which is a big business with tens of thousands of money, was unexpectedly made by Mojia village by such a wonderful means.


    The eldest sun couldn''t help feeling dizzy. 800000 kilograms of iron materials, at least 700000 kilograms, entered the hands of Mojia village. The Mojia village was no longer short of iron materials for at least two months. In this way, the young master''s plan didn''t come to naught.


    "Don''t worry, shopkeeper. Let''s say today that we will lose at least 2000 yuan!" said the accountant of changsun tiehang with confidence.


    What is two thousand Guan money? The Mohist family lost the young master''s face by spending two thousand Guan money. How will others look at the eldest grandson''s family at that time.


    "A group of untouchables!" said the eldest son.


    Just for a small profit, these people have ruined the young master''s great event, which is abhorrent in the eyes of Chang Sun Quan.


    Changsun mansion.


    "Just one day, just one day, you will make me the laughing stock of Chang''an city." Chang sun Chong was furious.


    Originally, he thought highly of himself and didn''t say that few of the younger generation could get into his eyes. How could he expect to suffer losses in the hands of Mohists? This time, he failed so miserably.


    "Young master, forgive me! Who knows that the Mo family is so vicious that he lured the people of Chang''an city to buy iron materials for him with heavy profits. The villain accidentally fell into his plan." Chang Sun Quan quickly apologized.


    Chang sun Chong was helpless for a while, which was simply a method without solution. He can indeed interrupt the supply of iron materials in Mojia village, but he can''t prohibit others from selling iron. In other words, as long as the iron shop in Chang''an city still sells iron, there will be no shortage of iron materials in Mojia village.


    As for the loss of money in Mojia village, as long as there is a cash cow of a four wheeled carriage, what is the extra money.


    As for interrupting the supply of Chang''an iron materials and raising prices, it is even more impractical. Don''t forget that there is the leveling and Standards Department. Li Shimin can tolerate Chang sun''s household iron materials for profit, but he can never tolerate acts that undermine the development of Datang.


    "Young master, master, please!" the voice of the housekeeper outside the door extinguished Chang sun Chong''s anger.


    Chang sun Chong was embarrassed. Of course, he knew that at this time, his father obviously knew what happened today. It was impossible to hide the big and small things of Chang sun''s house from him.


    "Father!"


    Following the housekeeper to the study, the eldest son rushed into the door and saluted.


    In the study, sun Wuji sat upright and was dealing with official business. Sun Chong didn''t dare to disturb him and waited here quietly.


    For a long time, changsun Wuji looked up and quietly looked at changsun Chong.


    "It seems that you still can''t let go of Changle?" Chang sun Wuji sighed.


    "Father, I......" the eldest son flushed. If it had been OK before, it is now known that they are close relatives. If it was said that they still miss Changle, it would be a big scandal.


    "Father, what about close relatives? Not to mention that not all the close relatives in history have problems getting married." Chang sun Chong argued.


    "Confused! Even if you have such thoughts in your heart, they are buried in my heart!" the eldest sun Wuji angrily scolded.


    At his level, he would not care about his close relatives for the sake of family interests, but he could not ignore the royal face.


    "At least in the light of the fact, the Mohist school has made great contributions. In a short time, we can''t have any conflict with the Mohist school!" the eldest sun Wuji shouted coldly. He had to take into account the royal face. At this time, it''s easy for the town to think of the previous repentance event.


    "Yes!" the eldest son bowed his head.


    "After a while, Wei Fu will ask you for a position of Zongzheng Shaoqing. Don''t take care of such cheap things as business!" Chang sun Wuji waved his hand.


    Looking at Chang sun Chong, who was not satisfied with the oral administration, Chang sun Wuji couldn''t help sighing and thought of a sentence that Qin Qiong accidentally said in the court recently.


    Hate iron makes no steel.

 Chapter 200

    The short fight between the Mohists and the Chang Sun family did not cause much waves in Chang''an city. Both sides consciously controlled the impact to the minimum, and even the Mohist magazine did not report at all.


    However, it''s not that no one knows about it. On the contrary, those who pay close attention to the Mohist school have witnessed the crisp fight with their own eyes.


    In particular, the Mexican family promised heavy profits, and the phenomenon of thousands of scenes falling from the heart fell to the ears of people.


    "Merton, you have it!" Qin Huaiyu smiled and gave Merton a thumbs up. Even Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin look happy.


    As the leader of the dandies of the civil servants in Chang''an City, Chang sun Chong himself did not deal with them. This time, he deliberately embarrassed the Mohists. Unexpectedly, he decided the victory and defeat in one day in Merton''s hands.


    Merton smiled implicitly. Of course, this kind of thing is not suitable for discussion on this occasion.


    "Understand, understand!" the three nodded again and again, but the smile on the corners of their mouths could not be covered up.


    "A gentleman is like righteousness, a villain is like profit!"


    In the Imperial College, Dr. Guozi shook his head and explained the Analects of Confucius. Liren, citing scriptures, boasted about the gentleman and trampled on the profiteering villains under his feet, as if a gentleman was a person who didn''t eat fireworks, and talking about money was a villain in in the eyes of money.


    Under the school.


    Merton couldn''t help but show a sarcastic smile. Confucian knowledge is indeed good, but it often kidnaps people''s morality.


    Dr. Guozi swept Merton''s smile and said angrily, "Confucius said: when three people walk, there must be my teacher. I don''t know what the Mohists understand about this."


    For a moment, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton. Everyone knew the root cause of today''s conflict. Dr. Guozi was the most rigid. He was particularly enthusiastic about Merton''s means of confusing people with money. Today, he focused on explaining the Analects of Confucius Liren. The biggest purpose was to admonish Merton. Where did he think that Merton was still ungrateful.


    Merton had no choice but to get up slowly and thought a little: "I dare to ask you, master. I''m a gentleman in the Tang Dynasty and a villain."


    "Well, this..." Dr. Guozi immediately concluded that if he could be rated as a gentleman, there would be few in the world, but there would be a lot of villains. It is estimated that no one would admit it.


    "As far as students know, there must be gentlemen and boys, but there are definitely not many, and most of them are ordinary people. Mohist School believes that love and mutual benefit." Daqu "says:" righteousness, benefit; injustice, harm. Therefore, students believe that the benefits of the world can be roughly divided into two kinds, one is just gain and the other is improper gain. "


    "Just gain is the benefit of living by relying on one''s own labor and input without damaging the interests of others. One mu of land, farmers invest in labor, and landlords invest in land. Whenever there is a good harvest, both sides distribute grain and a commodity according to the agreement, craftsmen pay sweat, businessmen transport to other places, and people gain benefits from paying the price. This is just gain.


    Unjust enrichment is to gain benefits at the expense of others and yourself, such as extortion, malicious fraud, corruption and so on. "


    Merton''s words avoided the dispute between gentlemen and villains, but explained the dispute between benefit and righteousness from the division of interests.


    In fact, in the dispute between the Mohist family and the eldest grandson family, in this commercial struggle, each iron firm recovered the cost one by one, and each bastard paid hard work and made profits. It can be said that it was a legitimate profit, and no one suffered any loss. If there was a loss, it was also the Mohist village. However, the Mohist village seemed to suffer a loss, but it got the iron material like the lifeblood, which was no longer subject to restrictions in a short time In people.


    "So everyone should pursue interests," Dr. Guozi insidiously induced.


    Merton shook his head and said, "students think that as long as they earn from their hard work, even a gentleman doesn''t have to avoid talking about profits. The vast majority of people in the world are ordinary people who need to support their families. Everyone wants to eat enough, everyone wants to live in a big house, have a sense of security for the elderly and have a doctor for their diseases. These all need money. If everyone avoids talking about profits, it''s unrealistic.


    Of course, I believe all the princes and masters of the imperial court are gentlemen. After all, if gentlemen value righteousness over profit, how much salary the imperial court can save every year! "


    "Ha ha ha!"


    The whole bingshe burst into laughter. You know, in the Han Dynasty, many officials had no rank at all. The size of official positions was divided according to the salary, including 600 stone assassins, 2000 stone prefects and so on.


    Although it is not so obvious in the Tang Dynasty, it is obvious that the higher the rank of officials, the richer the salary. According to statistical records in later generations, the salary, salary materials, job field and other rewards of first-class officials in the Tang Dynasty are about one yuan, which is equivalent to the current annual salary of one million, and the ordinary seventh grade officials are also equivalent to the current annual salary of one hundred thousand, but it is extremely rich.


    Most of the students are young people. Usually at this age, the most hated thing is not enough talent, but not enough money. Especially in Chang''an City, which is full of flowers, it is spending money like running water.


    In particular, Qin Huaiyu and his wife are all laughing, and they have a deep understanding of the distress of lack of money. They are very strict in family education and have very little pocket money every month. In order to make money, they got on Merton''s thief ship.


    Now, although his assets have soared, it is still a pro jingle, because Merton has never given him red. Fortunately, he has a better reputation. He is a poor rich man.


    There is no doubt that Dr. Guozi returned from a disastrous defeat, with a salary in his hand, thinking of promotion and wealth, while talking about valuing profits over righteousness. After all, he is the master of the ivory tower and has not been shameless to that extent.


    Soon the dispute over justice and benefit spread throughout the Imperial College.


    "Just gain, unjust gain! The Mohist school has a legalist legacy." the doctor of law praised.


    The doctor of law is really proficient in law. Merton quotes the legal terms of later generations. The Confucian theory is tall, but it can''t defeat the reality, that is, people are not perfect. How many people in the world can really be called gentlemen?


    "The desire for profit is blinding and bewitching people!" Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, sniffed.


    He now hates Merton to the bone, and of course he totally denies the theory of Mohism.


    The doctor of law laughed and said, "if brother Liu is really a gentleman''s style, how would you like to receive the salary for you this month? Just in time, I fell in love with a Mohist four-wheel carriage and was worried about being shy in my bag?"


    "You..." Liu Yinian suddenly became angry.


    Liu Yinian said no, his body is really honest. The Imperial College has little oil and water, and Chang''an City costs a lot. If his monthly salary is less, his whole family will go to drink the West and north wind.

 Chapter 201

    In later generations, the most important basis to measure whether a country is strong or not is steel production.


    This time, the changsun family seemed to solve it quickly, but Merton saw the biggest crisis of the Mohist family. If the changsun family could cut off the iron supply of the Mohist village once, it could cut off the second time.


    "Mojia village must have two months of iron reserves and find a stable iron supply. Only in this way can Mojia village deal with the crisis." Mojia village said solemnly.


    Iron and steel is the food of industry. It''s easy to say that other materials, but iron and steel is the top priority. Moreover, since the Mojia village used more and more iron, how can people choke their necks step by step.


    "Boss, now the changsun family controls the big head of iron materials. Other iron shops can only act according to the face of the changsun family. Moreover, the output of other iron shops is very small, and the iron quality is very low, which can not meet the iron supply of Mojia village." Xu Jie frowned.


    "If the output is small, Mojia village will help him make production tools. The iron quality is not good, and Mojia village will help him improve the production process!" Merton said proudly.


    Outside the south of Chang''an City, the exhibition stand next to the Mohist experimental field.


    Since the Mohist technology exhibition was transformed into a Mohist Food City, it has been called the exhibition place of Mohist village, echoing with Mohist boutiques one inside the city and one outside the city.


    Today''s booth is very lively, and an endless stream of noble four-wheel carriages produced by Mojia village stop at the door.


    "Shopkeeper Feng!"


    "Shopkeeper Jiang!"


    "Hello, shopkeepers!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Xu Jie stood at the door, greeted him with a smile and greeted him one by one. If the business people in Chang''an City were there, they would be greatly surprised that all the iron shopkeepers in Chang''an City were invited.


    Shopkeeper Feng of Feng''s iron shop, who has a big belly, quickly hugged Xu Jie: "shopkeeper Xu, I haven''t seen you for a long time, but my style is still the same!"


    Today''s Xu Jie is no longer a broken settlement a few months ago. The foreign affairs manager of Mojia village has raised Xu Jie''s status to a higher level. Coupled with the hot sales of four-wheel carriages, Xu Jie''s reputation has risen to a higher level.


    The business community is more realistic than others. Whoever has more resources and earns more profits will naturally become famous. The turnover of 100000 yuan in half a month is enough to kill all the shopkeepers present.


    "TOEFL, TOEFL!" Xu Jie replied with a smile and politely greeted other shopkeepers.


    The shopkeeper of Chiang''s iron shop was tall and straight, and said in a loud voice, "shopkeeper Xu, we didn''t come here today to greet each other, but the iron making method of Mohism."


    As soon as shopkeeper Jiang said this, all the shopkeepers of tiexing were quiet. On the one hand, the reason why they were able to get together today was for the sake of the big customer of Mojia village. After all, the ban of changsun''s family was dead in name. On the other hand, the messenger of Mojia village put two pieces of iron materials in each tiexing. One was the original iron material of tiexing, The other is the iron smelted in Mojia village.


    The reason why these iron firms occupy a small market in Chang''an city is that the small scale of iron ore is only one aspect. On the other hand, their iron ore quality is not good. In addition, their own technology is not up to standard. The iron materials produced contain too many impurities and the scrap iron rate is too high.


    I didn''t think that after being simply handed over by Mojia village, it turned into superior iron material, and Mojia village agreed to teach the method of iron making. All shopkeepers came one after another.


    Xu Jie smiled and said calmly, "don''t worry, shopkeepers. Since the Mohist school invited you to come, you won''t come in vain. It should be noted that the most famous skill of the Mohist village is the skill of mechanism. The shopkeepers mining and smelting iron are the most wasting tools. A good tool can do twice as much with half the effort."


    "Brother Jiang, don''t worry. It''s still early today. We just have a chance to see the famous Mohist mechanism." shopkeeper Feng smiled and ran on shopkeeper Jiang.


    Among the railway lines in Chang''an City, the changsun family occupies the majority. There are few remaining markets, the competition is particularly fierce, and there are countless dirty ones.


    "Brother Feng is not in a hurry. What am I in a hurry? As far as I know, the latest batch of iron materials from Feng''s iron shop are very crisp!" manager Jiang said sarcastically.


    Iron material is brittle, which means that it contains a lot of impurities, especially too high sulfur and phosphorus. Not to mention iron ore and many associated minerals, it is impossible to eliminate them in this era of all eyes.


    "The iron material of your Chiang family is not much better!" shopkeeper Feng countered.


    The shopkeepers of other iron stores were happy to see their jokes one by one and were happy to one side.


    "Don''t worry, I believe these problems won''t be problems after today." Xu Jie said confidently.


    "Hum!" they snorted coldly. Thinking of the pure iron sent by the Mohist school, they couldn''t help feeling anxious. However, they were both experienced in shopping malls and couldn''t help but press the excitement in their hearts.


    "Please!"


    Xu Jie arched his hand,


    Under Xu Jie''s tie, pieces of mining tools with metallic luster were presented to the public.


    "These are all steel products. When you mine, you will encounter some extremely hard things and have no choice. I believe that with these tools, you will be able to help you open mountains and crack rocks." Xu Jie said.


    The shopkeepers looked at the tools with great joy. Mojia village not only produced steel tools, but also improved the original tools, which saved time and labor on a solid basis. With the help of these tools, the mining efficiency increased by at least 30%.


    Although only 30%, day after day, year after year, that will be a huge number.


    "Mohist craftsmanship really deserves its reputation." shopkeeper Jiang sighed after experimenting on a stone with an all steel chisel.


    After reading the mining tools, the people stopped in front of a huge instrument.


    "Is this a pulley?" manager Feng frowned.


    Shopkeeper Jiang waved his hand and said unhappily, "if it''s a pulley, it''s not reliable. There are often accidents."


    Pulley has already appeared in this era. Although this thing is labor-saving, the rope quality is not qualified. Once the lifted thing is too heavy, it will often break and cause accidents. The mines of Chiang''s railway company also used pulleys, but there were several accidents in a row. Several guys died and lost a lot of money.


    Not only that, the shopkeepers of other iron shops also nodded one after another. The pulley is really not suitable for iron ore. if the iron ore is too heavy, something will happen accidentally.


    Xu Jie said, "what you are worried about is that the rope is broken, but what if the Mohist rope is as strong as steel?"


    "Impossible? How could there be such a hard rope in this world." shopkeeper Feng shook his head and said.


    The crowd shook their heads.


    Seeing the reaction, Xu Jie did not argue. Instead, he personally came forward and shook down the winch, put down the rope and handed it to shopkeeper Feng.


    "Is this?" shopkeeper Feng touched his hand and felt a cold wave. The rope was as cold as iron.


    At this time, other people also found something unusual. The rope was woven from thin iron wires as thin as hair, and the rope was thick as fingers. They couldn''t help but be surprised.


    Xu Jie said proudly, "this is the highest craft of Mohism. The steel rope is woven by the most skilled craftsmen in Mohism village, drawing wire bit by bit. It is as hard as steel and wound like rope."


    "Mohist craftsmanship is really unparalleled in the world. It can turn steel into soft fingers." shopkeeper Feng picked out a disorderly steel wire and was able to wrap it around his fingers. I couldn''t help sighing.


    Xu Jie pointed to the huge pulley and said, "your mines must be deep underground and need manpower to come out from the ground. If you use this pulley, how much manpower and material resources will be saved, and there will be no safety worries."


    The shopkeepers were very excited. They just felt that it was a worthwhile trip today. They were so surprised. With this sharp weapon, it was the greatest benefit of the mine.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, I''ll book five of these pulleys at Feng''s Iron Shop!" shopkeeper Feng ordered directly without asking the price.


    "Jiang''s railway line is scheduled for eight sets!" the shopkeeper Jiang refused to show weakness. The mine of Jiang''s railway line is deeper and more mines.


    "Han''s Iron Shop booked three." other shopkeepers were unwilling to show weakness and hurried.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, the business of 30 pulleys has been finalized. Coupled with the mining tools before, it is a large business. Moreover, it is only an iron ore business, including copper, gold and silver. As long as it is a mine, it is estimated that it will be inseparable from the Mohist steel pulley in the future.


    "Shopkeeper Xu is really a good business!" shopkeeper Feng said.


    Everyone also sighed. It is conceivable that the steel cable pulley alone is enough to make the Mojia village full of money. Not to mention the high steel cable boom next to the steel cable pulley, it is believed that there is a great market in buildings and docks.


    However, while everyone sighed, they did not forget the task that came today, that is, the iron smelting method of the Mohist school.


    "Shopkeeper Xu said no secret words. The iron smelting method of the Mohist school. I Chiang''s iron line is determined to win. Please make an offer!"


    In the reception hall of the exhibition booth, shopkeeper Jiang couldn''t wait to say that with these tools of Mohism, the output of Jiang''s iron shop would certainly double. If you get the advanced iron smelting technology of Mohism, it would be double the profits.


    "Yes, please allow the shopkeeper to make an offer." shopkeeper Feng nodded.


    Other shopkeepers of tiehang also nodded one after another. For them, everything else is trivial, but technology is their biggest weakness.


    "Don''t worry, since Mojia village has invited you here, it''s not too late to take care of yourself. However, it''s not too late for you to read this contract first and then discuss it." Xu Jie said.


    The shopkeepers took it and frowned.


    "100000 Jin of superior iron material per month, which seems a little too much!" shopkeeper Feng frowned.


    The shopkeepers of other iron firms also nodded one after another. Their production was not much. If it was exclusively for Mojia village, they would almost give up other customers.


    "You can rest assured that with these tools, your iron output will increase greatly. I believe it will not be difficult to use 100000 kg of iron material at that time. Moreover, if you like, you don''t have to pay for the steel tools, pulleys and iron making secret prescriptions you need." Xu Jie promised.


    "Pay with iron." the shopkeepers couldn''t help but move. If so, wouldn''t it save a lot of expenses.


    "Moreover, if you enjoy this cooperation, the steelmaking method of Mojia village in the future can not be sold here." Xu Jie added another strong material.


    "Seriously?" the crowd was suddenly shocked.


    Xu Jie said, "this is what the East family said, not to mention the iron making method is a precedent?"


    Obviously, no iron firm can refuse the temptation of getting the steel-making method. Moreover, the conditions in Mojia village are so favorable that if you miss the opportunity, you can''t get the iron making secret in front of you.


    For Mojia village, a few secret prescriptions, coupled with the temptation of steelmaking, and a very small price, solved the worries of Mojia village.


    win-win.

 Chapter 202

    "Wheezing, wheezing!"


    In the backyard of Mo mansion, the whole backyard was transformed into a small runway covered with sand.


    Merton''s legs were tied with sandbags. He was staggering and moving hard. He was breathing heavily. He was sweating all over. His thin clothes had already been soaked and wet on his back. It was very uncomfortable.


    "No, I can''t, I can''t run!" Merton stuck out his tongue and felt his throat like a fire. It''s generally hard to suffer. The staggering running is not as fast as that of normal people.


    "Can''t run? You think you can run if you pit us!" Chumo Leng hummed as he was doing one hand pull-up on the horizontal bar next to the runway. One hand firmly supported his body, and his muscles were curly and powerful.


    "That''s right. I finally got to the field holiday. I wanted to have a rest. Who knows that I doubled my training. You know, I carried 30 kilograms yesterday, ran for an hour, and practiced martial arts for an hour. Then I got away." Qin Huaiyu said bitterly. Among the three, his martial arts was at the bottom. Qin Qiong finally found a way to improve her martial arts and wanted to practice him.


    The field holiday is the most important holiday for students in the Tang Dynasty. Every May is the busy farming season. Many poor students generally need the labor force at home. The holiday starts in May every year for a full month. Like the clothing leave in September every year, it is the most expected holiday for students in Datang.


    "299, 300!" Wei Chi Baolin finished 300 push ups easily and looked contemptuously at Merton''s lightest sandbag.


    Under the shame and indignation, Merton knew the shame and then braved. He ran ten laps in one go. He was as tired as a dog. He struggled to almost wring the sweat water sandbag off. The whole person was like just taking a bath.


    "It''s too hot this day!" Merton shook his head and immediately sweat splashed, and Qin Huaiyu fled in a panic.


    This year''s weather is abnormal. It''s only mid May, and it''s already very hot.


    "Three nine in winter and three volts in summer!" Qin Huaiyu snorted coldly, returning Merton''s words intact.


    "Ha ha! Isn''t it the day of the third volt?" Merton said with a dry smile, and he didn''t think the joke was funny at all.


    "Uncle Mo is also in charge of military affairs. You are also the son of general Morton. You can''t run away in the battlefield in the future. In my opinion, you will suffer sooner or later." Chumo hit the nail on the head and told the truth.


    Merton immediately became silent. His birth was a problem he could never escape. Since he inherited the title of the Mohist house, he would naturally inherit the responsibility of the Mohist house.


    "I''ll continue to practice tomorrow," Merton thought.


    "That''s right. In the future, our brothers will make contributions and kill the enemy together!" Qin Huaiyu said with high spirits.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nodded heavily. Merton looked at the three and nodded solemnly. The four ignorant teenagers made a legend with ignorant expectations.


    In the reception hall!


    Merton put on a clean dress, and the three washed and hid in the house.


    "Young master, the water you want!"


    Purple clothes curled up and put four glasses of water on the table with a tray in his hand. Merton picked up a cup and couldn''t wait to drink.


    "Thank you, sister in purple!" Qin Huaiyu picked up a cup and drank it in a big gulp.


    "Bah! It''s too hard to drink. Ziyi shouldn''t be making trouble!"


    Qin Huaiyu only felt a salty taste in his mouth and almost didn''t spit it out.


    "Master Qin, you have wronged a good man. Don''t you see that the master is also drinking?" Purple playfully pointed to Merton, who was drinking light salt water.


    "Ah! It''s so hard to drink?" Chumo and Chumo also tasted it and couldn''t help sticking out their tongues. If he hadn''t seen Merton drinking the same gulp, he would have thought that purple was probably teasing him!


    "This is light saline, which is most suitable for replenishing water after strenuous exercise and will reduce nausea, vomiting and muscle pain." Merton explained. As for electrolyte supplement and hyponatremia, Merton did not explain, but explained the benefits of light saline.


    "Oh!" the three suddenly brightened their eyes. If they really benefit from it, it''s a good news for their martial arts practitioners. It''s worth it even if it''s hard to drink. At that moment, holding his nose, he drank the light salt water in the cup in front of him. The effect of the hard to drink light salt water was indeed very obvious. After drinking, the four people obviously felt that their physical strength had recovered.


    The cool light salt water takes away a little fatigue, but it can''t take away the hot weather. The four people fan the fan one by one, and still can''t take away the dry heat of the whole body.


    "I heard that Taoist yuan, the emperor of heaven, wrote that this year is the year of drought and the hottest year in Guanzhong over the years." Qin Huaiyu wiped his sweat and said.


    "Taoist yuan, Yuan Tiangang?" Morton asked in a startled voice.


    Qin Huaiyu nodded and said, "it''s yuan Tiangang. His uncle is yuan Shoucheng. We saw yuan Shoucheng in the Zhuangyuan building some time ago."


    Merton suddenly realized that compared with Yuan Shoucheng, the name of Yuan Tiangang was more familiar to Merton. After all, the famous back pushing picture of later generations came from his and disciple Li Chunfeng.


    Whether by coincidence or otherwise, tui Bei Tu is indeed the highest achievement of Taoism, and the major events of the next two thousand years can be found in it.


    "If it''s Taoist yuan Tiangang, it must be true!" Chumo nodded.


    Yuan Tiangang''s name is famous in Chang''an city. He once showed the faces of three senior officials in Chang''an City, and the results all came true one by one. It made yuan Tiangang famous. He sat firmly in the position of Qin Tianjian''s wine offering and was in charge of all kinds of major sacrificial occasions in the Tang Dynasty.


    "It is said that your majesty has decided to spend the summer in Jiuhua palace." Wei Chi Baolin suddenly whispered.


    "Seriously?" Morton said in surprise.


    This is no secret to Qin Huaiyu. Their father has been on duty in the army these days. They have already learned the information, but Merton''s news is a little blocked.


    "Well, not only is the weather too abnormal this year, but there was very little snow in Guanzhong last winter, and there was very little ice in the palace. It was only may, and the ice in the palace had been exhausted." Qin Huaiyu fanned the Pu fan in his hand and said that he knew more about the inside story.


    "Oh!" Merton suddenly realized.


    The hot weather and the depletion of Tibetan ice may be the reason why Li Shimin spent 90% of his summer vacation.


    Jiucheng palace was built in the former dynasty. It was called Renshou palace. Later, Li Shimin changed it into Jiucheng palace. It is three hundred miles northwest of Chang''an city. It has beautiful mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery. It is a holy place for the emperors of the Sui and Tang Dynasties to spend the summer.


    According to historical records, Li Shimin went to Jiucheng palace for summer vacation for as long as five months. It can be imagined how hot the weather is this year.

 Chapter 203

    The four brothers muddled through the afternoon until the sun tilted to the West and the dry heat in the air slowly disappeared.


    "Aunt fish! Get me another bowl of cold noodles!" Chumo sat under the willow tree in the backyard and shouted with an empty bowl.


    Since the fish master ran the fish champion building, Merton lived a dark life for several days, and the chef of the ink house was replaced by Aunt fish. Although Merton has endless theories in future generations, he is also a theorist.


    At noon, the brothers didn''t eat when it was hot. When it was a little cooler at the moment, they asked aunt fish to eat a few bowls of cold noodles.


    "Coming!"


    Aunt Yu looks at Chumo''s empty bowl with satisfaction. She takes out a lot of noodles from a large basin of cold water and puts them into Chumo''s bowl. It''s delicious to pour special soup on it.


    "Aunt fish, give me a bowl, too!


    "I want it too!"


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also handed over their empty bowls one after another.


    "Good! Good! There are all."


    Aunt fish said with a smile. For a cook, seeing that his talent is so popular is the biggest compliment.


    After serving two bowls of rice, aunt Yu looked at her young master with hopeful eyes.


    Merton touched his stomach and waved his hand. He didn''t have such a good appetite as the three.


    Aunt Yu shakes her head regretfully. Her young master is good at everything, but he doesn''t eat much. Like these three young men, Chumo is ready to add the third bowl.


    After dinner, the sun had set, and Qin Huaiyu didn''t want to go at all.


    "Why, the three uncles are not at home today?" Merton asked curiously when he saw that the three were not in a hurry. Usually at this time, the three people usually have to get up and leave.


    "Don''t worry, my father is staying in the military camp today. I said I wouldn''t go back tonight before I left." Chumo shook his head and said.


    "Eh! My father also said to stay in the barracks today?" Qin Huaiyu said in surprise.


    The three men immediately looked sideways at Wei Chi Baolin. Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily.


    Merton immediately brightened his eyes and said, "since the emperor is going to Jiucheng palace for summer vacation, what about the three uncles?"


    "Of course we should go to escort together!" Qin Huaiyu and her three people immediately brightened their eyes and felt a burst of excitement in their hearts. If Qin Qiong and others went to Jiucheng palace together, wouldn''t there be no one to discipline them anymore.


    "It was the same last year!" Wei Chi Baolin added. They immediately thought of it and nodded one after another,


    "Hey, hey, hey!" their tacit thoughts became active.


    "Fuber!"


    Merton put down the empty bowl in his hand and shouted.


    Fu Bo answered and said with a smile, "young master, what can I do for you!"


    "Summon me twenty Mohist children!" said Merton with a big hand.


    "Yes, young master!"


    At present, the Mohist family is obedient to Merton. Fubo didn''t even ask why. He immediately took orders. There are not a few children of the Mohist village in Chang''an city. It''s easy to find more than 20 people.


    "Why do you want so many people?" Qin Huaiyu frowned.


    Merton said proudly, "even your majesty has gone to spend the summer. It can be seen how difficult this summer will be. Naturally, we can''t go to Jiuhua palace. We don''t have to find a way by ourselves. I think it''s better to ask others than ourselves. How about building a summer resort by ourselves."


    In this era of no air conditioner and no fan, if you want to spend this rare summer in history with a few palm fans alone, Merton will not be cold (head) but (big) chestnut (sweat).


    "Can you make it yourself?" the three were very interested, but they wondered.


    Merton said confidently, "don''t worry, keeping it will open your eyes."


    The next day, the three people staying in Mo''s house were awakened by a loud voice.


    "Yawn!"


    Qin Huaiyu yawned, put on a dress, pushed open the door and looked up at the sky. The East had just turned white.


    "Good morning!"


    The doors of the two adjacent rooms open, revealing Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin''s heads.


    "Why is it so noisy, Merton?" Qin Huaiyu yawned and asked.


    "Don''t know?" they shook their heads, opened Merton''s door and found no one inside.


    "It should be in the back garden!" Qin Huaiyu said, pointing to the source of the voice.


    "Go! Go and have a look!" the three woke up and walked back to the yard.


    When they went to the backyard, they first found Merton''s figure under the weeping willow and the huge pit two feet in front of him.


    Qin Huaiyu approached and looked at the huge pit. Many Mohist children were digging at the bottom of the pit and putting it into a huge hanging basket.


    Around the pit, there are two steel cable booms operating at the same time. The hanging basket filled with soil is lifted out with a huge hanging chain and placed on the four-wheel carriage waiting on the side.


    After a while, the four wheeled carriage was already full of soil. Immediately four horses pulled the carriage away, and the next carriage quickly filled it.


    "The depth in the East is four feet, don''t dig too much! The depth in the south is six feet, pay attention to the distance from the willow, the depth in the north is nine feet, and step up the drainage." Merton commanded aside.


    Soon, the earth pit with a radius of two feet has been completed. Many Mohist children tamp the soil while draining water, even around.


    "What are you doing?" Qin Huaiyu didn''t understand. He dug such a big hole overnight.


    "This is my brother''s summer resort in the future," Merton said proudly, pointing to the pit.


    "Ah!" the three looked at the pit and suddenly felt a chill.


    "Merton, I''ve heard that boars are usually covered with mud in the mud pit to avoid the heat. Brother, don''t do that!" Chumo shivers his goose bumps.


    "Bah! You''re just a wild boar?" Merton was also cold. He shivered and said, "don''t worry, this is only preliminary construction. You''ll know later."


    At this time, Xu Jie came over, followed by two fully loaded four-wheel carriages.


    "Young master, the bluestone you want has been sent." Xu Jie wondered. Early in the morning, he got Merton''s instructions and went to the street to buy bluestone. He thought Merton wanted to repair the road again.


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, a group of Mohist children immediately filled up the bluestone slabs and lifted them into the pit one by one. First, the bottom of the pit, then the four walls, and finally the surrounding banks were fully paved. Under the skillful hands of Mohist children, even the edges and corners were handled very beautifully.


    "Water injection, scouring!" at Merton''s command, a waterwheel was set up and pulled by a horse. A large amount of well water gushed out into the pool. The washed muddy water was soon drained away by the prepared Mohist children.


    After three successive washes, the water finally became clear.


    Everyone in the pool withdrew, and a large amount of well water was continuously injected. Looking at the rising water level, the bluestone slab below was clearly visible. Coupled with the reflection of weeping willows nearby, the pool water had a faint blue halo.


    Soon, a very modern swimming pool appeared in front of everyone.

 Chapter 204

    "After that, it will be our brother''s summer resort!" Merton said proudly, pointing to the swimming pool.


    At this time, there was no sewer. Merton built the swimming pool into living water. The well water on one side kept pouring in, and the culvert on the other bank was left. Once the water level reached, it would overflow. In this way, the flow of water and the clarity of water source could be guaranteed.


    "How beautiful!" Qin Huaiyu exclaimed.


    In their impression, the most pleasant thing in summer is to go to the pond to take a bath, but it is often covered with mud and dirty. If they are unlucky, there may be blood sucking insects such as leeches. Merton''s practice is simply turning corruption into magic.


    "Beautiful?" Merton curled his lips. If they were to see the blue swimming pool with beach in the future, they would be stunned and their chin would fall off.


    Suddenly, Merton''s heart moved. The reason why the swimming pool was blue in later generations was just because copper sulfate was added. Although there was no object called copper sulfate in Datang, there was a drug called gall alum.


    Gall alum, also known as blue alum, has the function of inducing vomiting and removing corruption. It is a commonly used emetic in ancient times. This drug may not be available elsewhere, but there must be one in Mo hospital.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Young master! But someone is poisoned and needs to vomit?" Mo Wu panted and ran over. He got a message from Mo Si and asked him to come immediately with gall alum, which startled him.


    If Mo Si hadn''t repeatedly said that the young master asked to keep a low profile, he might have arrived with an ambulance.


    "Have you brought anything?" pursued Merton.


    "It''s all here!" Mo Si handed over a medicine box, which was almost full of gall alum. He wanted to get a few copies, but he didn''t expect that the more the young master sent a letter, the better.


    As a last resort, Mo Wu had to leave a little alum for the Mo hospital, and all the rest was packed and brought over.


    "Young master, how can you use so much alum? It''s poison. It''s not good to use too much alum." Mo Wu urgently admonished. According to this measurement, even hundreds of people can''t use it up.


    "Don''t worry, it''s not for people!" Merton waved his hand.


    Mo Wu found that there was a clear pond in the backyard, in which Qin Huaiyu and his wife were soaking comfortably.


    "Is it...!" Mo Wu looked at the pool in front of him, and a bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart.


    Sure enough, Merton said hello, and the three people in the pool jumped out. They picked up the prepared iron pestle, opened the medicine box, took out the crystal blue alum in the medicine box, put it in the pottery pot, picked up the iron pestle and smashed the alum.


    Qin Huaiyu was willing to participate in Merton''s experiments. They didn''t complain at all. On the contrary, they were very excited. They almost didn''t do this kind of rough work, but they worked hard to develop alum into powder bit by bit.


    "Is this OK?" Wei Chi Baolin stopped his pestle and took his pottery pot for Merton to see.


    Morton stretched out his head and found that the alum in Yuchi Baolin pottery pot had become powder. He nodded and said, "that''s all right. These alums can be dissolved. Just be careful not to have large pieces."


    Soon, the three crushed the alum in their hands into powder. Fearing that it was not enough, they immediately crushed another pottery pot.


    Watching the five minutes as like as two peas in the heart of the ink, the ink five follows the learning of Chinese medicine, not only the great progress of medical skills, but also the frugal habits of the old and hardship days.


    When Merton saw that the quick Wei Chi Baolin wanted to come to the third pot, he hurriedly came forward and stopped and said, "OK, that''s almost it."


    The three gathered the crushed alum together, and there was a full pottery pot.


    "Well, it''s time to witness miracles!" Merton raised the pottery pot and shouted.


    All of them were looking forward to it, and they all stretched out their heads to look at Merton. Even Mo Wu, who was distressed by the medicine, was curious.


    As soon as the hand tilted, the glittering blue powder was sprinkled into the water.


    In an instant, a strong blue spread rapidly from Merton to the whole pool. The whole pool water was immediately blue, like the reflection of the blue sky. Coupled with the weeping willows, flowers and plants next to it, a beautiful picture appeared in front of everyone.


    "This is... This is..." Wei Chi Baolin stammered, pointing to the blue pool water.


    "Like the sea!" Qin Huaiyu said obsessed.


    "Yes! Yes! It''s the color of the sea!" Wei Chi Baolin said excitedly. He once went to the beach with his father and saw the real sea. It''s this blue color.


    "The sea?" Chumo grows up. At this time, due to the inconvenience of transportation, many people have never been out of a house in their life, let alone reached the seaside. What''s more, they are located in the remote inland of Chang''an.


    Except for Wei Chi Baolin, no one has seen the sea. Even Qin Huaiyu has only seen from books that the color of the sea is blue.


    Although people haven''t seen the sea, it doesn''t mean that no one has fantasized about the sea. Where did they think that the fantasy scene should appear in front of them like this? It''s as beautiful as imagined.


    "Is this still a pool? I can''t bear to go down!" Qin Huaiyu looked at the blue pool and couldn''t bear to say.


    "What''s this?" said Merton. "It''s just a pool of water."


    At that moment, he took off his coat, made a plop and jumped into the pond. The cool water immediately washed away all the summer heat.


    "Young master, don''t! This gall alum is poisonous." Mo Wu was shocked and turned pale on the shore.


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, this is a pool of water. There''s no problem with such a little alum. You think I don''t know the role of alum. In addition to the beautiful color, the biggest role of putting alum is to kill insect eggs and algae in the water and ensure the dry and clean water quality."


    After Merton explained, everyone suddenly realized that, plus Merton had tested the poison by himself, Qin Huaiyu and the three were unwilling to fall behind and jumped down immediately.


    "It''s so hot. You''ve been running for a long time. You''re sweating all over. Come down!" Merton said to Mo four and Mo five.


    "Thank you, young master!" Mo Si was itching. Hearing Merton''s order, he immediately took off his coat and stabbed it down.


    Mo Wu also had a medical cleanliness mania, but he couldn''t resist the temptation and went into the water as soon as he clenched his teeth.


    In the blue swimming pool, people lay in the shade of weeping willows and looked at the blue water of a pool, but their minds flew to the sea thousands of miles away.


    "It''s the same as I felt at the seaside that year!" Wei Chi Baolin said with a look of nostalgia, and several people hated their teeth itching.


    "One day, I must go to the beach!" Chumo grits his teeth.


    "It is said that the sea is divided into four seas, Southeast and northwest, which are respectively ruled by the Dragon King of the four seas. In the sea, there are three fairy islands in Yingzhou, abbot Penglai. Each sea is boundless and will never reach the end," Qin Huaiyu thought.


    "As for the theory of immortals, it''s a matter of Taoism, but according to the speculation of Mohism, there are bound to be times, but we haven''t been there. In the future, if I grow up, I''ll build the largest ship in the world to conquer the real sea." Merton said excitedly.

 Chapter 205

    The water in the swimming pool is cold water drawn from the well. Although it has been exposed to the sun all noon, it still feels very cool.


    The four people lie comfortably in the water with their backs against the clean bluestone board, enjoy the cool feeling, talk about their life dreams, and sweep away the dryness and heat of the whole summer.


    "Eh! What is this?"


    Qin Huaiyu seems to have found a great event. He looks at Merton''s four corner shorts in the water in surprise. Not only Merton is wearing these strange shorts, but also Merton''s four ink five are wearing the same clothes,


    Qin Huaiyu looked at the Kun on his body and frowned. He just felt that his body was too ugly.


    Chumo seems to have found a new world, and even Wei Chi Baolin reaches for it.


    "What are you doing?" Merton covered his secret place like an insulted little daughter-in-law.


    "Fuck off!" Qin Huaiyu scolded angrily.


    "This is the underwear invented by the young master. The calf nose is really inconvenient and troublesome. Now the children of the Mohists wear this kind of underwear, which is very convenient." Mo Si explained.


    "That''s true," Chumo nodded. The calf''s nose is made of a three foot long cloth. It''s very troublesome to wear it every time, and there are too many fabrics. It''s very uncomfortable once it''s hot in summer, even if it''s soaked in water.


    "It''s very good. After going back, let the servants do something like this!" Qin Huaiyu came. He was afraid of the heat. Now he doesn''t refuse all the methods that can avoid the summer.


    "Don''t bother so much. I''ll just ask aunt Xu to make some clothes for you by the way." Merton got up and said.


    Aunt Xu is Xu Jie''s wife. Xu Jie''s family lives in Mo mansion temporarily. Aunt Xu is embarrassed to be idle here, so she took the initiative to take up the work of making clothes. Unexpectedly, aunt Xu is a female worker with superb craftsmanship. The clothes made by her hands are exquisite.


    They had been soaking for a long time, and the summer heat had almost dissipated. They couldn''t stay in the water all the time. They got up and changed into dry clothes.


    In a side courtyard in the north of Mo mansion, Merton specially divided it out for Xu Jie''s family to live in.


    "Aunt Xu!"


    Merton knocked at the door and shouted.


    Although Merton can''t be rude at home, it''s not just a matter of etiquette, but also that since aunt Xu showed her needlework talent, this small courtyard has become a gathering place for women in the ink house. Even the crazy girl like purple clothes seem to be interested in needlework and run here every day, causing Mo San to urge the manuscript every day.


    "Come in!"


    Aunt Xu with a smiling face welcomed the people in. After a period of stable life, aunt Xu''s previous sadness had already disappeared and restored some charm.


    "Aunt Xu, my brothers also want to make some sets of boxers!" Merton said as soon as he entered the door.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three immediately made a big red face. The four legged pants themselves were close to each other. They didn''t want to be yelled out by Merton so loudly.


    Aunt Xu didn''t care about these. In her opinion, Merton was a teenager a few years older than her son. Without taboo, she simply measured them around their waists and said with a smile: "this is simple. When I make it for the young master, I can increase the size."


    Merton suddenly turned black. Is the difference really so big?


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help laughing, and because of aunt Xu''s presence, they endured very hard.


    Merton glared at the three, quickly changed the topic and said, "aunt Xu, have you finished the clothes I asked you to make?"


    "Ready for the young master!" aunt Xu turned and took out a pile of clothes from the inner room and handed them to Merton.


    Merton took over, picked up his white coat and shook it open. Seeing the familiar style, he couldn''t help nodding with satisfaction.


    "No, why don''t you open the front and button your clothes?" Chumo suddenly said in surprise.


    "And there are no sleeves!" Wei Chi Baolin frowned at the sleeve of Merton''s coat, which is only palm size.


    "So short, can I wear this dress?" Qin Huaiyu said with a disgusted face, much shorter than the usual tops they wear.


    The three men looked at the strange clothes in front of them and commented one after another. Usually, the clothes they wear, regardless of the fabric, are long sleeved, and the front is opened, and a few buttons are tilted to the armpit. Finally, the front is long to the knee, and the coat in front of Merton simply subverts their understanding of clothes.


    "It''s called a short sleeved T-shirt. It''s a summer artifact specially prepared by our young master." Merton said proudly. Although the fabric is not pure cotton in later generations, aunt Xu uses the best Shu brocade, which feels cool and comfortable.


    "Compassionate?" the three frowned. Although some strange words appeared from Merton''s mouth, it was not strange, but it was also difficult to accept this strange dress.


    "The reason why this short sleeved T-shirt doesn''t have a button is that it''s directly over the head," Merton explained.


    Merton found an inner room, put on his T-shirt, walked in front of the three, and immediately brightened their eyes.


    With a short useless front, long sleeves and a close fitting design, Merton is particularly capable.


    "It''s very convenient!" Chumo said in surprise. He usually wears clothes with sleeve buttons, and the T-shirt in front of him is directly in place at one time.


    Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "although it''s a little convenient, the restraint belt can''t be buckled."


    The binding belt is an ancient belt. Because the clothes in this era are usually very wide and need to be fixed with a belt, rich and noble people are usually made of cowhide to assist in various decorative patterns. This is very common in official clothes, while ordinary people use long silk belts instead and wrap many circles directly around their waist.


    In this era, there are almost no clothes numbers, so clothes are mainly broad. Sometimes clothes also serve as pockets. We often see that the ancients hid things in their arms or sleeves in TV dramas in the future.


    "Here! This is not a tie."


    Merton picked up a belt next to him, lifted his T-shirt a little, passed through the loop of his pants and buttoned it through the buttonhole.


    Merton can''t stand the long and uncomfortable binding belt of this era. He has already made a belt for himself. Merton hasn''t been able to make a magnet belt, but the buttonhole type still can''t defeat the skilled craftsman of Mojia village.


    "Cowhide!" Merton frowned proudly.


    The pants that Qin Huaiyu and his three discovered were also quite different from the common wide pants. They were very stylish and close to their thighs.


    T-shirts, belts, trousers, if coupled with a sneaker, it''s a living modern teenager. This is the second bullet Merton prepared for himself in the summer.

 Chapter 206

    "Is that all right?"


    Qin Huaiyu looked at his T-shirt and protected his arms with both hands, just like a little daughter-in-law without covering her body.


    The three of them went fishing in the river, went up the tree and took out bird eggs, and even drank and gambled. The master complained many times. In addition to forcibly robbing good family women, they almost didn''t pull any rebellious things in their youth and tried them all. However, it was the first time for them to wear strange clothes. They couldn''t help being a little timid and timid.


    "How comfortable is it compared to your previous clothes!" Merton asked angrily.


    The three men immediately nodded. Without saying anything else, they took the light one, which was the dress before they completely defeated them.


    "Have you ever been naked?" Merton asked again.


    The three shook their heads together. They often practice martial arts with bare arms. Their T-shirts only show two arms, which is nothing.


    "What are you tangled about? Besides, don''t I wear it like this?" Merton pointed to his T-shirt and said impatiently.


    "But it''s too small!" Chumo grabbed his T-shirt and pulled it down hard. A few words were about to deform his clothes.


    The other two nodded together. They were used to wearing long shirts over their knees. Now they suddenly wear T-shirts under their waist. It''s very uncomfortable.


    "What''s the matter with Xiao? That''s to save cloth for Datang." Merton said a dirty word angrily.


    "Er!"


    The three were stunned. What you said was reasonable. I was speechless.


    "Do you think the people of Datang are all rich children like you, and there are more people in Datang who don''t cover their bodies. Such T-shirts and shorts can save about half of the cloth, that is, half of the cloth money can be left. As long as we walk around the street, I can guarantee that imitation T-shirts will appear in three days. At that time, you will lead the trend of Datang That''s not a big show, "said Merton bewitchingly.


    The three of them had a sudden change of mind. He personally experienced this new style of clothing. It is indeed very comfortable. Moreover, just like Merton said, it is high-quality and cheap. Other things aside, it is indeed the best clothing for summer vacation. At present, they have a slight change of mind. When they look at their own clothes, they are not so uncomfortable.


    "That''s not bad!" Qin Huaiyu felt the lightness and lightness of her whole body and believed Merton''s words for a few points.


    "All right, let''s go," Merton got up.


    "Where are you going?" the three were surprised.


    "You''ll know when you go. Do you think you can get through this year''s heat with these?" although the heat is not recorded in history, it can be imagined how difficult it is this year because Li Shimin stayed directly in Jiucheng palace for five months in history.


    Although Merton did not have the ability to make air-conditioning fans, he was the most effective ice in summer. He did have the ability to make ice and saltpeter ice, which was the most familiar method for Merton''s later generations.


    "Drive!"


    Four horses drove the four wheeled carriage and drove fast. On the wide street, bursts of cool wind blew into the window along the window, taking away a trace of heat.


    "Besides, Merton, your carriage is really a good place to spend the summer!" Wei Chi Baolin put his head out of the window and felt the gusts of wind coming to his face.


    "Don''t block the air outlet!" Chumo pulls him back. He stretches his head out. There''s no wind in the window, and the car gets stuffy immediately.


    "Cool is cool, but who is willing to let the carriage run all the time." Qin Huaiyu rolled her eyes and said, the weather is so hot, you don''t think the horse is hot! Even if they are young masters of the country, if they do such extravagant things, they will certainly be played by the imperial historian. In Datang, horses and cattle are strategic goods, which can''t be destroyed casually.


    The weather is hot, but Chang''an city is still prosperous. People flow along the way. Shops on both sides of the road are still open and sell on the street. After all, the more you are in a big city like Chang''an, the more difficult it is to live, the more people have to run for life.


    With a squeak, the carriage stopped.


    "Xuandu temple! Brother Mo, what are we doing here?"


    Qin Huaiyu looked out and frowned when he saw the magnificent and beautiful Taoist temple in front of him.


    Xuandu temple is the largest Taoist temple in the Tang Dynasty. It is deeply favored by the emperor. Moreover, believers are all over Chang''an city. Even in the whole Tang Dynasty, many believers come to repay their wishes.


    "Looking for ice!" Murton said mysteriously. He jumped down from the carriage and saw the huge palaces in front of him. He couldn''t help pumping his mouth. How much does it cost!


    "Looking for ice? Merton, don''t mess around. These Taoists are not easy to provoke!" Chumo frowned. According to the scale of xuandu temple, there should be hidden ice, but the weather is abnormal this year, and it is estimated that there will be no more.


    In fact, it''s not easy to offend. No one dares to offend. The Tang Dynasty established the country with Taoism. Supreme Emperor Li Yuan thought he was the descendant of Lao Tzu and Li Er, and established Taoism as the first of the three religions.


    Moreover, the Taoists in xuandu temple have always respected their status. Yuan Shoucheng can sit down with Li Shimin and talk and laugh. Yuan Tiangang concluded that it was very hot this year. Li Shimin immediately convinced that he decided to go to Jiucheng palace for summer vacation. Even some royal princesses call themselves Taoist nuns and even have their own Taoist temple. The whole royal family has countless ties with Taoism.


    In the whole Tang Dynasty, among the hundreds of schools of thought, Taoism is the top one among the imperial families of the Tang Dynasty. The influence of the whole Tang Dynasty from the royal family to folk Taoism is everywhere. This is the reason why Merton dares to develop Mohism openly and justly in the Tang Dynasty. If in the Ming Dynasty, the peak of Confucianism, Merton has the intention and is expected to sneak around with his tail.


    "Don''t worry, we won''t go to xuandu temple at all! Just buy some materials in the back street." to tell the truth, Merton is also a little guilty. Originally, he was a firm atheist, but he can''t explain it when he crossed the Tang Dynasty. Although it was blessed by the ancestors of the Mohist school, he may think a lot, but I''m sure the ancestors of the Taoist school can see anything strange.


    "That''s good?" Qin Huaiyu breathed a sigh of relief.


    They are young and vigorous young men. Of course, they are not interested in seeking gods, worshipping immortals and pursuing longevity. They do not yearn for xuandu temple.


    Alchemy is popular in the Tang Dynasty. Xuandu temple is the largest Taoist temple in Chang''an city. There are a large number of alchemists in Chang''an City, which gives birth to a abnormal prosperity. A large number of shops are opened in the back street of xuandu temple, specializing in incense burning by pilgrims and alchemists'' alchemy materials.


    Saltpeter is one of the necessary materials for refining gunpowder. The early gunpowder was invented by alchemists when they were refining pills. Xuandu temple is the place where the whole Tang Dynasty is most likely to get saltpeter.

 Chapter 207

    Xuandu guanhou street.


    Merton walked along the bluestone street in strange clothes. The shops on both sides of the street were selling incense and candles.


    "Four young masters, but they want to go to the xuandu temple to burn incense. It''s only when they bring some incense that they seem sincere." a shop clerk dressed up in Taoist clothes greeted the four people.


    Qin Huaiyu waved impatiently. This was the fifth wave. The four people were dressed in strange clothes. In this busy street, they turned back almost 100%. In addition, although the four people wore strange clothes, their clothes and fabrics were exquisite, clean and tidy. At first glance, they were not poor people, and soon became the sales target of many merchants.


    Merton was not angry, but he was used to this kind of business behavior. He reached out to find some Kaiyuan Tongbao in his pocket and put it in the hand of the Taoist clothes clerk: "we don''t need incense and candles anymore. We''re looking for some materials for alchemy."


    Merton and others turned around and didn''t find that the alchemy materials such as saltpeter were all incense candles used by ordinary pilgrims. Since they couldn''t find a place, they asked a local snake.


    The waiter''s face was happy. These are a few big money, enough for his salary for a day. As soon as his hands shrunk, several Kaiyuan Tongbao immediately disappeared into the middle of the generous Taoist robe: "you young masters, you can ask the right person. This street is all for pilgrims. The materials asked by the young master are used by the Taoist master. Naturally, they will not be sold in the open."


    Merton frowned and said, "where can I buy it?"


    "Along this street, turn right and see the alley with a gossip flag!" the man said brightly without selling off.


    According to the address the man said, the four saw a gossip flag in a corner.


    After entering the alley, Merton immediately felt that he had entered a small workshop like chemical plant in later generations, where there were almost all kinds of chemical materials.


    "Alum!"


    Chumo looks at the gall alum they just pounded and says in surprise. It''s such a little magical thing, but it gives them a big surprise.


    Along the way, Merton couldn''t help being an eye opener. Here are not only alum, borax, stone mother, dansha, realgar, etc., but also the famous chemical raw materials called by Merton, which have a complete variety. It''s like walking into an open-air chemical laboratory.


    "Ah sneeze"


    A pungent smell came. Merton couldn''t help sneezing. Which guy burned the sulfur.


    "Be careful!"


    Merton looked at the shop on the right. A man with a waxy yellow face and thin face didn''t wear a mask. He just padded it with a few pieces of sheepskin. He poured a jar of silvery white liquid into small bottles, and next to him was filled with blood red cinnabar, which are commonly used by Taoist alchemy.


    Merton saw clearly that it was a jar of mercury, commonly known as mercury, which was the most commonly used thing in Taoism.


    "Young master, I''ve been careless. I''ve been refining mercury for decades. I''ve never made any mistakes. As long as I don''t touch my body, I won''t have any problems." the waxy yellow man opened his yellow and black teeth, threw aside the sheepskin cushion in his hand, and said indifferently.


    Merton and other waxy yellow men sealed the vials one by one with corks. Then he slowly approached and looked at the waxy yellow man''s face and said, "do you often have dizziness and headache?"


    The waxy yellow man was stunned and his face changed from yellow to white.


    "I''m afraid your teeth have dropped almost, and even the only teeth are probably loose!" Merton sighed and said with pity.


    The waxy yellow man''s hands shook again, and his face turned from white to red.


    "And your hand shaking is not for a while and a half, but often! I''m afraid you have some difficulties with chopsticks now!" Merton sighed as he stared at the waxy yellow man''s trembling hands.


    "The young master is really a miracle doctor!" the waxy yellow man said with sincere admiration. "The villain has been shaking his hands for more than ten years. I didn''t expect the young master to be able to see it at a glance."


    At this time, out of the inner room came a woman with the same sallow complexion, holding a large porcelain bowl of water in her hand, holding a yellow pill in her right hand and saying, "my husband, it''s time to take the medicine!"


    Suddenly, Merton''s eyes were attracted by the pill in the woman''s hand. The pill had a smooth surface and attractive color. When illuminated by the sun, it fainted with a trace of luster, which made people unable to help being attracted.


    The waxy yellow man picked up the pill, picked up the water from the porcelain bowl and drank it. Soon, the waxy yellow man''s face flushed. After a while, there was sweat oozing from his forehead. The whole man was excited. The original non-stop Sinian''s hands also recovered their stability.


    "Master xuandu temple''s pill is worthy of the art of immortals. Villains have been suffering from this disease for decades. There is no medicine for many famous doctors, but this pill makes villains like reborn." the waxy yellow man looked at the direction of xuandu temple with respect and worshipped three times. His face was solemn like a reborn parent.


    Merton''s face immediately stagnated. After a long time, he sighed: "next time when refining mercury, it''s best to choose an open place. If it''s not enough, it''s OK to buy some charcoal to make a mouth cage, which can alleviate the symptoms."


    The waxy yellow man disapproved, but the woman stretched out her hand and pulled him down. Then she quickly saluted and said, "thank you for reminding me, young master. I should just keep it in mind."


    Merton knew that the waxy yellow man didn''t listen to his words. He couldn''t help sighing. He had done what he said here.


    After walking a long way, Merton couldn''t help looking back. He saw that the waxy yellow man continued to turn the cinnabar in his workshop without taking Merton''s words to heart.


    "This man is deeply poisoned!" Qin Huaiyu said meaningfully.


    "The poison has entered the body! Three points into the bone!" Merton said word by word with a trace of pain on his face.


    "How? I think this man is very smart. He uses a sheepskin cushion. Obviously, he also knows that Mercury is not suitable for human contact. How can he be poisoned?" Chumo wondered.


    "Do you think you''ll be fine without contact? If you buy the jar of mercury, open the plug and put it down for a few days, you''ll find that your Mercury is gone?" Merton explained the volatilization of mercury.


    "Ah!" Wei Chi Baolin said in a surprised voice, "since Merton can see this person''s condition at a glance, is it...?"


    Looking at Wei Chi Baolin''s hopeful eyes, Merton shook his head regretfully.


    In this era, it is impossible to synthesize drugs to solve mercury poisoning, otherwise Merton would sit back and watch this phenomenon.


    "Let him go to Mo hospital. I believe doctor sun and doctor Hua must have a way."


    Merton shook his head and said with a heavy face, "it''s hard to save the stone!"


    The nerve damage caused by mercury poisoning is irreversible and lasting. This person has been refining mercury for a long time and has been poisoned into his internal organs. Now he can hold it. It is probably because he has been exposed to mercury for a long time because he has developed a certain resistance over time.


    "How is it possible? Isn''t the pill of xuandu Temple very effective?" Wei Chi Baolin suddenly looked up and asked incredulously, but he saw the waxy yellow man recover immediately after taking the pill with his own eyes.


    "What if mercury was mixed in the refining pill?" Merton said faintly. He knew the reason why the waxy yellow man was energetic. The pill in this era acts as a stimulant, which can naturally give the waxy yellow man the illusion of healing.


    "Isn''t that a pill..." Qin Huaiyu and his three men were shocked. How many people have been pursuing the illusory way of long life and taking pills, isn''t that


    Qin Huaiyu shuddered when they thought about it. In this hot afternoon, their hearts were as cold as 39 days.

 Chapter 208

    Taoism divides alchemy into inner alchemy and outer alchemy.


    Inner alchemy seeks the way to cultivate immortality by exhaling and practicing Qi, meditating and practicing hard. However, not everyone yearns for the deep mountains and forests, can endure day-to-day meditation and hard practice, endure the loneliness day after day, and pursue the ethereal way of heaven.


    In particular, the largest source of tourists for cultivating immortals - princes and emperors. One by one, they indulge in worldly wine, sex and wealth. They are not satisfied after enjoying it all their life. They just want to occupy it all their life.


    So some people give in to their favor and put forward the use of foreign objects. For example, some natural treasures! Then there was the theory of pill.


    External alchemy originated from the pre-Qin formula. It is to burn minerals in a alchemy furnace to make "immortal alchemy"! Later, the human body was designed as a furnace tripod.


    Taoism uses various secret methods to burn and refine pills, which are used to take or directly take some zhicao, so as to enlighten their own Yin and turn it into Yang, so as to live forever.


    It''s ok if you take the herb pill, but if you take the gold and stone pill, it''s the old longevity who hangs his life. According to later research, the gold and stone pill contains more than 60 kinds of metals, and many people will be poisoned by heavy metals.


    It''s funny to say that the people who want to live long are the first to die. For example, Qin Shihuang, who wants to live long, is the best example.


    However, it is not that external alchemy is good for nothing. It directly savagely gave birth to the ancient chemical industry, including the contribution of the gunpowder alchemist of the four great inventions.


    The topic of pill is too heavy, especially involving Taoism and dignitaries. The water is too deep. The four wisely avoid this topic and concentrate on finding their purpose.


    "This is it?" Qin Huaiyu felt the frost white crystal and said with a puzzled face.


    In a corner shop, the four finally found the target.


    "Several young masters, this is the best wall cream." the owner of the shop is a gray haired old man. Hearing Qin Huaiyu''s doubt, he seems to have been insulted.


    Wall frost is another name for saltpeter. It is called wall frost because saltpeter often appears under the corner and its color is as white as frost.


    Merton looked at the white powder and couldn''t help nodding and said, "I''ll take all this wall cream."


    "Seriously!" the shopkeeper said with surprise on his face, thinking that he had met a big customer this time. At this time, gunpowder is not popular, and saltpeter is of little use. It is not easy to sell at ordinary times.


    "How could the famous Mohist son of Chang''an deceive you, a small shopkeeper!" just then a joking voice sounded behind him.


    "Mohist school!" the shopkeeper was stunned. Although he was taking it for Taoism, the strong rise of Mohist School in the last half of the year had already attracted the whole city''s interest in the hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period. Of course, he was familiar with the famous Mohist school, Merton.


    Merton looked back and saw pound in his usual clothes looking at Merton with a smile.


    "Ah!" the four suddenly changed their faces and turned their minds. Since pound appeared here, Li Shimin must be in the xuandu temple.


    "Grandpa Pang, how did you... Find here!" Morton stammered.


    "Father-in-law, I''m taking good care of the noble people. I just heard the bodyguard report that there are people with strange clothes and sneaky deeds in the back street. It''s really you." pound looked at the four people''s strange dress and couldn''t help but smoke from the corners of his mouth. In other words, it''s impossible to keep a low profile wherever they go.


    Qin Huaiyu stared at Merton. If it weren''t for his bad idea, how could they be so unlucky.


    "Since your father-in-law has noble people to serve, we won''t bother." Qin Huaiyu said flatteringly, and the soles of his feet slipped, like slipping away.


    Merton and others nodded together. Now they don''t want to meet Li Shimin at all. They just think that after Li Shimin left Chang''an City for summer vacation, they will stay in Chang''an City for leisure. After making ice, they will present the ice making method to Jiucheng palace.


    "I''m not in a hurry! Just in time, a noble man wants to see you!" said pound with a smile.


    The heads of the four people suddenly drooped down, and the last chance in their hearts was mercilessly pierced.


    "Master Mo, this wall frost..." the shopkeeper asked hurriedly when he saw that Merton four were leaving.


    "Yes! Of course! Why not? Wrap it all up." pound said with a smile. His task in person is not only to bring back Merton four people, but also he is also interested in what Merton does. He is ordered by Li Shimin to keep an eye on Merton all the time, but he knows how much Merton can toss, and it''s definitely a big deal.


    "Yes! Yes!" the shopkeeper was immediately excited, and Merton''s face turned black. This time, there were all the people''s and material evidence, and the hammer was real!


    Xuandu temple.


    In the shade of a dense tree, Li Shimin and Yuan Shoucheng were sitting at a stone table drinking tea. They talked happily and burst into hearty laughter from time to time.


    Under the nearby tree, Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Li Zhi also occupy another stone table.


    While eating snacks and drinking tea, the three looked at the four people standing in the corner and couldn''t help snickering.


    Merton''s four people stood in a row honestly, with a very correct attitude, like a student who made a mistake, waiting to learn a lesson.


    "Your clothes are good!" Li Chengqian looked at the clothes of the four people with a look of great interest.


    "Go."


    Merton''s four people immediately glared at the fallen guy.


    What''s more hateful is that Li Zhi looked at Merton''s four different clothes and snickered. He had begun to hold his stomach. If he wasn''t afraid of attracting Li Shimin, he would have been lying on the ground and rolling.


    Li Tai looked at Merton four with great interest. Compared with Merton''s strange clothes, he was more interested in Merton himself.


    Among the many princes, Li Tai''s knowledge is the best. Even if he looks at the whole Tang Dynasty, it is first-class, but he has no confidence in Merton.


    He was convinced by his unfathomable arithmetic and poems well-known in Chang''an City, coupled with the practical way of creating miracles.


    "Why are you here?" Merton saw an opportunity and asked in a low voice like Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian replied in a low voice, "father emperor is about to visit Jiucheng palace. He came here today to repay his wish for his mother."


    Merton suddenly realized that no wonder among the many princes, only the three princes born to the eldest grandson queen are here. "


    Since Sun Simiao stayed in Changan, she often entered the palace to help the empress grandson to recuperate her body. After months of recuperation, she got a good result and her figure improved. I chose a good time to repay my wish.


    Merton looked at each other and couldn''t help but feel bitter. How could he be so unlucky and just hit the muzzle of the gun.


    "What about you? What''s this dress for?" Li Chengqian asked.


    "Cool!" the four said in unison

 Chapter 209

    Li Chengqian found that in this muggy weather, he didn''t exercise at all. Even if he sat in the shade of the tree, there were faint traces of sweat. However, the four people came from the outside facing the hot sun, but they still seemed to look the same.


    At this time, Li Chengqian realized that maybe the four people were not making fun of each other, or maybe they were just trying to cool down as the three said.


    "Cool! Cool, go and stand in the sun." Li Shimin didn''t know when he had finished chatting, and looked at the four Mertons with a look of hatred for iron and steel.


    Merton suddenly wilted. Looking at the poisonous sun outside, the appointed stepped forward. Qin Huaiyu didn''t need to be told. They had already stood in the sun.


    The hot sun shone on the body, and the four of Merton seemed to be in a fire pit. The heat wave hit in bursts. After a while, they were sweating all over.


    The three brothers of the Li family, the culprit, were sitting upright one by one, staring straight. Only the corners of their mouths twitched. It was obvious that they were forcing themselves to smile.


    "These smelly boys are so naughty that the Taoist priest laughed!" Li Shimin looked back and said helplessly to Yuan Shoucheng.


    Merton is really not a worry. It''s only a short time before he prepares some moths. As a etiquette that the emperor attaches more importance to, Merton''s four people''s strange clothes are almost rebellious in his eyes.


    Yuan Shoucheng looked at the four people with great interest, wisped with snow-white beard and said, "Your Majesty is also a heart of love. However, according to what I can see, the clothes that the ink giant said were not rude, and they were quite refined and used very few materials, which was very in line with the theory of frugal use of Mohism."


    Merton looked up in surprise. He didn''t expect yuan Shoucheng to speak for himself. Frugality is one of the core ideas of Mohism. It''s also appropriate to explain this matter.


    Merton hurriedly went down the slope and said, "the Taoist priest is really as sharp as a torch. The material of the boy''s clothes is only about half of that of ordinary clothes. However, the Taoist priest flattered him. The boy is just an ordinary Mohist child. He really can''t afford to be a giant."


    Li Shimin also found the advantages of Merton''s T-shirt, and only showed two arms. It doesn''t seem to be a big deal. Of course, how could the emperor make mistakes? At present, he humed coldly: "with his virtue, he can still be a giant. If you want him to be a giant of Mohism, don''t you laugh off his big teeth!"


    "Your Majesty taught you a lesson! You must keep it in mind!" Merton quickly corrected his attitude and actively admitted his mistake.


    Li Shimin immediately drew a corner of his mouth. He didn''t believe Merton''s promise. If Merton didn''t make trouble, he would falsely call him the nickname of little catfish.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them could not help laughing. They despised Merton. It was this guy who provoked them to wear clothes. As a result, they were hit on the tip of the gun as soon as they went out. They didn''t enjoy the cool for long and were still exposed to the sun.


    Fortunately, Li Shimin can''t resist his curiosity. Although Merton likes to toss, every time he tosses out good things, he beckons the four of Merton to come closer.


    The four of Merton were immediately pardoned and hurried into the shade. Rao was so wet with sweat.


    "So? This dress can really save half of the cloth." Li Shimin looked at Merton''s T-shirt and his loose clothes, and couldn''t help believing it. Besides, if you can really save ordinary cloth, I''m afraid it''s really a blessing for the people. Merton''s dress has no problem in essence, but it doesn''t conform to the dress style of the Tang Dynasty at this stage.


    "Back to your majesty! It''s enough to save more than half." Merton nodded without hesitation, looking at Li Shimin''s foot long Royal dress.


    "Oh, so the Mo family, who earned 100000 yuan in January, dressed like this just to leave some cloth money?" Li Shimin sneered.


    Merton was stunned. He still ignored the influence of 100000 Guan. Not only did Chang sun Chong sit still, but even Li Shimin remembered it.


    Although the source of these 100000 connections is very correct, the wealth and wealth move people''s hearts. If it is not handled well today, I''m afraid it will leave an extremely bad impression on Li Shimin''s heart.


    Merton quickly turned his face and showed his ability to be a salesman for a few days in his previous life: "Your Majesty, this dress is not a matter of money. This dress also has the greatest function of being much cooler than ordinary clothes. For example, in today''s weather, your Majesty must feel dry and hot, but it is still very cool."


    Regardless of those improper clothes, T-shirts are the coolest clothes in summer, which Merton said is justified.


    "Hmm!" Li Shimin said without expression.


    Merton quickly added, "well, of course, this coat is also very convenient to wear. You just need to put it on your head, and you can move freely and extremely light."


    Traditional costumes are wide robes. There is no model at all. Sometimes the workmanship and the like have to be lifted up and placed behind the waist. It''s very troublesome. Merton has been impatient for a long time. Now take this opportunity to make modern costumes.


    Save cloth, cool and convenient! Without Merton''s warning, according to Li Shimin''s wisdom, we can also guess that such T-shirts will certainly cause a trend in Chang''an City this summer. Moreover, such T-shirts are very close to the body, and the young boys in Merton are even more energetic. In particular, Wei Chi Baolin is just a clothes shelf, and the close fitting T-shirts have a unique charm on the body.


    "It''s nonsense. The clothes handed down by our ancestors can''t be changed if you say so." Li Shimin scolded, stroking his general''s belly and looked at their good figure jealously.


    "Tao gives birth to one, life to two, and life to three. Young people are always full of vitality, seeking change and innovation, which is understandable." Yuan Shoucheng can''t see it. Li Shimin''s anger has long disappeared since he heard Merton explain the benefits of T-shirts.


    "Thank you, Taoist yuan. If Taoist yuan hadn''t pleaded for you, you would have dried catfish in the sun today!" Li Shimin said.


    "Thank you, Taoist yuan!" Merton said gratefully.


    Yuan Shoucheng waved his hand lightly and said, "Mohism and Taoism are one of the hundred schools of thought in the pre-Qin period. It is a great joy to see the best successors of Mohism coming to our Taoist temple thousands of years later!"


    "Taoist yuan praised me! Boy, I really don''t deserve it!" Morton said modestly.


    Yuan Shoucheng laughed and said, "the great Mohist is modest in his mouth, but you are not modest at all! The old Taoist is very curious. What is the secret of what the famous Mohist is looking for in person."


    Yuan Shoucheng reached out and took out a bag of crystal white saltpeter and put it in front of Merton. He can see Merton''s magical performance. There must be a big secret about what can interest him.

 Chapter 210

    "Ah!"


    Merton suddenly felt numb all over his scalp. How to explain? Can you say that you are greedy for pleasure and think it''s too hot in summer to get some ice to cool down.


    "Oh! I also want to know!" Li Shimin was also very interested. A Mohist boy came to the Taoist place in strange clothes to buy some alchemy materials. How strange it looked.


    Li Shimin knows that he can''t help but use his mind. He also knows that this guy is uneasy. He must do something. It''s better for him to solve it in advance than to make the city full of wind and rain?


    The three brothers, Li Chengqian, could not help but look sideways, but they all knew that Mozi could make strange things every time. The secret skills of live fish, hot-air balloons, ink magazines, the city''s early warning system and four-wheel carriages were either a sensation in the whole city or worth thousands of dollars. It would certainly not be an ordinary thing to let Mozi go out in person this time.


    "Er!" Merton saw that he couldn''t hide it, so he had to tell the truth.


    "Tell your majesty, I heard that the weather is very hot and the hidden ice in the imperial palace is exhausted, which is not conducive to the recovery of the Queen''s body. I want to make some ice to share your worries for your majesty."


    "Make ice, you plan to use this wall cream to make ice!" Li Shimin sneered at the saltpeter on the table.


    "Ha ha!" Li Tai laughed very cooperatively, and the others didn''t believe it.


    "Yes, Weichen made ice with this!" however, to everyone''s surprise, Merton nodded solemnly.


    "What?"


    Everyone looked at Merton in surprise. Everyone thought it was absurd, but when they thought of Merton''s magical performance, they couldn''t help being absurd. If this matter is put on others, it must be laughed off by others, and it is not necessarily even considered crazy. However, from the mouth of Mohists, it is an incredible thing, and they may have to think twice.


    "Using wall frost can make ice." Yuan Shoucheng looked at the familiar wall frost in his hand. He often used it when refining pills. It can be said that he was very familiar, but he couldn''t think of its function of making ice.


    "It''s impossible. Summer insects can''t talk about ice. This is the order of heaven and earth. In addition to the method of hiding ice, ice and snow can''t appear in this summer." Li Tai exclaimed.


    "Your Highness the king of Wei''s words are not good. Even in the hot summer, there are some high mountains. Snowflakes do float all year round and will not change for thousands of years." Merton shook his head and said.


    "I have heard that there are high mountains in Tubo area, and the snow will not melt for thousands of years." Yuan Shoucheng also stroked his beard and nodded.


    Li Shimin also nodded. He had heard such strange news,


    "It''s just a very special place," Li Tai retorted.


    "What your Highness the king of Wei said is very true. Mohist sages have done experiments. If the temperature is divided into one Baidu from freezing to boiling, the temperature will be reduced by six degrees for every 1000 steps. That is to say, as long as it is a high mountain of 2000 feet, there may be snow all year round." Merton explained the reason.


    Li Shimin suddenly realized that the Jiucheng palace he was going to spend the summer was built in the middle of the mountain. Every summer, the Jiucheng palace has a cool and pleasant climate. I''m afraid the high terrain is the most important reason!


    "I didn''t expect that the sages of Mohism had reached such a point. I admire yuan Shoucheng!" Yuan Shoucheng sighed. He also visited countless famous mountains. Of course, he knew that the temperature on the mountain was much lower than that at the foot of the mountain. He hadn''t thought about it before. It was clear when he heard Merton say so this time.


    Li Tai was also stunned. The sages of Mohism had nothing to do but study these things.


    Merton seemed to see through what Li Tai thought and said, "this is a common phenomenon in heaven and earth, but it can be understood by analogy. The reason why water freezes is because the temperature is too low. If we can create a way to keep the water cool, it is not impossible to freeze in hot summer."


    "Let the water cool down. Can we use these wall frost to cool the water?" Li Tai sneered and asked.


    "Yes!" Merton said solemnly.


    "How could it be?" Li Tai exclaimed.


    Merton twisted a saltpeter with his hand, nodded and said, "the ancestors of the Mohist school once inadvertently dropped a large amount of wall frost into the water. As a result, the water temperature was freezing in less than a while. After half a sound, it condensed into ice."


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin was surprised. If he could make ice with wall frost, where would he need to go to Jiucheng palace? Not to mention the inconvenient long journey, he left the center as an emperor, which involved too many problems.


    "Your Majesty, please allow me to have a try." Merton said confidently.


    "Well, if you can really make ice, I''ll remember you. If you talk nonsense, you know the consequences." Li Shimin stared at Merton with a bad face.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. Taoist yuan, the boy wants to borrow your land." Merton bowed to Yuan Shoucheng. He is a child of the Mohist school. Naturally, he should say hello to the master first in the territory of the Taoist school.


    "I''m lucky to be able to see the secret skills of Mohism with my own eyes. I''ll naturally cooperate with you if I need anything." Yuan Shoucheng said.


    "Borrow the two pots in Guiguan, one is larger and the other is smaller. Both the pottery basin and the copper basin are filled with half of the well water just hit." Merton nodded.


    "A small thing."


    In the side hall of the other courtyard.


    Two pots of water were quietly placed in front of a square table. Li Shimin and a group of people were quietly looking at Merton.


    "Please try the water temperature," Merton said to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin tried the water temperature according to his words and nodded. It was really the well water just hit. It was very cool.


    Merton put the copper basin into the pottery basin and sprinkled a large amount of ground saltpeter evenly into the pottery basin. Every ten seconds, Merton sprinkled it again. In order to pursue the effect, Merton used saltpeter at no cost.


    However, a quarter of an hour later, the water in the basin did not respond at all.


    "Lord Mo can''t remember wrong! How can I make ice this summer!" Li Tai looked at the water in the two pots and said sarcastically.


    Merton ignored Li Tai''s ridicule, but reached out and touched the water temperature of the pottery basin. A trace of confidence appeared on his face and said, "Your Majesty, please try the water temperature again to see whether it is true or not."


    Li Shimin was also curious about this kind of thing. He couldn''t bear it, so he reached out and touched the pottery basin.


    "Father and emperor can''t, this wall frost into the water, no one knows whether it is harmful, if not by the child." Li Tai saw that Li Shimin put his hand into the basin without doubt, and quickly expressed his loyalty.


    At this time, Li Chengqian suddenly bowed down and said, "my child is willing to test the water for my father."


    "Young slaves are willing!" Li Zhi was unwilling to fall behind.


    Merton felt a sigh in his heart. The three princes who were most entangled with the throne in his previous life can be seen from today''s matter. However, Li Shimin was immersed in the dream of fatherhood and filial piety.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. The wall cream is a laxative. There''s no problem touching it with your hands. Moreover, there''s no wall cream in the copper basin. It''s still pure water," Merton said.


    Li Tai thought of Merton''s action just now, and couldn''t help making a big red face. Li Shimin didn''t think so. He laughed and said, "my son''s filial piety as a father has been received, but don''t you feel any difference in this side hall?"


    "Ah!" Li Tai reacted. Unconsciously, the whole room had become very clear and hot.


    "Really?" Li Chengqian said in surprise, feeling the cool breath in the air, as if he had returned to the cool autumn and summer.


    At this time, people realized that they looked at Merton in horror. Li Tai couldn''t believe it. He reached out and touched the copper basin. Suddenly, a biting cold came. Diseases in the palace were not rare. Of course, Li Tai knew that the temperature was almost close to the temperature of ice.


    Making ice in summer, I''m afraid this thing the world can''t think of, I''m afraid it will really be born in Merton''s hands.


    There was a silence. Only the temperature in the pottery basin was decreasing, and even faint white smoke curled up. Unconsciously, a thin layer of ice had appeared on the surface of the water in the copper basin.


    Despite the biting cold, Li Shimin held a thin piece of ice on his fingertips, felt the biting coolness, and a surge of ecstasy poured into his heart.


    I''m afraid this proverb will be rewritten from now on.

 Chapter 211

    "What''s going on?" Li Tai murmured to himself. He couldn''t believe it. Now he looks at Merton more like a magic stick than yuan Shoucheng. If he didn''t say it with his own eyes, he wouldn''t believe it.


    Li Chengqian and others also came forward one after another to feel the biting cold. They couldn''t help crying out. Li Zhi jumped around excitedly.


    "This is the art of creation of ghosts and gods!" Yuan Shoucheng shouted, and his heart couldn''t help surging. If this method appeared in Taoism first, it would make Taoism''s prestige to a higher level. Unfortunately, Taoism has no eyes and empty treasures in hand, but he didn''t know such a change and missed it.


    "This is Mohism!" Merton raised his voice.


    "Mohism?" Li Tai pondered immediately. He thought he had read a wide range of books. He had dabbled in all kinds of books, but such knowledge was unheard of.


    During this period of time, Mozi''s Mohist skills can be said to be famous in Chang''an, but they are all within the scope that ordinary people can understand. However, this time, it''s incredible that Morton made ice in summer. He couldn''t help being jealous and said, "it''s just a strange technique!"


    "Your Highness, the king of Wei is wrong. Mohism is a knowledge that studies the laws of the operation of all things and benefits mankind. There are countless people suffering from accidental heatstroke in the Tang Dynasty every year because of the extreme heat. If the ice making method can be popularized, ordinary people can eat ice to relieve the summer heat, put an ice basin in the room, and the hall princes can work at ease. This is not necessary in summer It''s a rare thing, "Merton explained.


    "How much ice can be made with these wall frost!" Li Tai Leng snorted.


    "Your Highness the king of Wei is wrong. Wall frost is a mineral. As long as it is mined, there will be a lot of it, and it can be reused. After freezing, dry the water dissolved in wall frost, and the wall frost will appear again and can be reused." Merton said.


    Li Tai was tongue tied. He didn''t expect the wall cream to have such an effect. If so, the wall cream has almost no loss, and the cost can be ignored.


    "I didn''t expect that it would be so simple to make ice!" Li Shimin sighed. Considering the difficulty of hiding ice, saltpeter ice making is almost the easiest.


    "It seems simple, but in fact it''s like a mountain. I''m ashamed. Wall frost is a common thing for me, but I have no eyes." Yuan Shoucheng said shamefully.


    "Taoist yuan is too modest. I just stand on the shoulders of my predecessors. I really don''t dare to take credit!" Morton said modestly.


    "What''s the meaning of standing on the shoulders of predecessors?" Li Shimin suddenly asked.


    "Your Majesty, among the hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period, Confucianism, Mohism and Taoism have the deepest influence. No matter how virtuous Confucianism is, it can''t compare with Confucius and Mencius!"


    Li Chengqian nodded silently with a look of admiration.


    Merton turned his eyes to Yuan Shoucheng and said sincerely, "no one is out of Lao Zhuang''s School of Taoism."


    "I''m ashamed. What I learned is not as good as 10% of the two saints." Yuan Shoucheng nodded.


    "The core of legalism has long been fixed, and the law of each dynasty and generation can not escape the word ''settle disputes, stop disputes, promote work and fear violence''." Merton said.


    Li Shimin nodded and nodded. It is true that what Merton said is true. The core idea of the law of the Tang Dynasty is indeed these two.


    "As for Mohist school, there are no shackles of predecessors, and they only pave the way with future generations. Mohist''s lever principle is used by the boy to kill the well, and Mohist''s pulley principle is used by the boy to make it into a pulley to lift ten thousand kilograms of weight. Therefore, the theory of Mohist sages is not to shackle Mohist descendants in this framework, but to let future generations step on their own shoulders, look higher and walk Further. "


    When Merton finished, Li Shimin was suddenly silent.


    Indeed, although Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism spread widely, they all picked up the wisdom of their predecessors and it is almost impossible to surpass them. Only Mohism is most likely.


    "There are many unsolved mysteries in addition to the principles of sages. Mohism is to understand the secrets, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and benefit the people." Merton said with a righteous face.


    "Ha ha!" Li Shimin immediately sneered. He knows this little catfish best. Benefiting the people is indeed one of them, and it is indispensable to seek private interests for Mojia village.


    Merton immediately blushed and said, "of course, before that, the Mohists should become rich first. After all, studying Mohism also needs a lot of money."


    "Hum! You''ve told the truth," Li Shimin said coldly.


    Merton suddenly relaxed his breath: "Your Majesty, rest assured that in order to show the boy''s sincerity, the Mojia village will give up the privilege of Title tax exemption, and will certainly pay taxes on time in accordance with the tax law of the Tang Dynasty."


    This sentence was not uttered by Merton on impulse. Merton believed that in ancient times, the reason why businessmen were inferior was not only that businessmen did not work in production and hoarded strange things, but also that businessmen made too little contribution to the imperial court. Most of the imperial court was land tax, and the business tax collected was negligible, No one in power would like to see a businessman who kept sucking blood from his body and made no contribution.


    The scale of Mojia village will certainly continue to expand. If you only ask for but don''t know the return, it will certainly arouse the envy of countless people. On the contrary, if Merton can provide astronomical taxes to Chang''an city every year, countless people will protect Mojia village. After all, no one will kill the chicken to get the egg.


    Li Shimin didn''t expect that Merton had such an idea, so he was stunned.


    "This is really what you think in your heart." Li Shimin said coldly.


    "Your Majesty, it''s a great gift to make an exception to allow Mojia village to do business without being cheap. Naturally, Mojia village will not disappoint your majesty. It''s natural to do business and pay taxes."


    Merton knew that this might offend many dignitaries who secretly engaged in business, but the situation in Mojia village was different. The business in Mojia village was originally chartered by the emperor, which naturally made Li Shimin cold.


    "Ha ha!" Li Shimin was in a good mood and couldn''t help laughing loudly. He wondered if the Tang Dynasty still lacked your tax. With a big hand, he was ready to reject Merton.


    But on second thought, Merton''s four-wheel carriage business alone earned 100000 yuan in half a month. It was millions of yuan a year, and the tax collection was at least tens of thousands a year. Moreover, it was only a business in Mojia village. He couldn''t help but change his tone: "After going back, Dai Shangshu will naturally calculate taxes for Mojia village. If you dare to make a mess in the future, be careful of your ass."


    "Yes, Emperor!" Merton quickly replied, and his heart was indeed relieved. This time, the four-wheel carriage made a monthly income of 100000, and suddenly the Mojia village sat at the crater. Money moved people''s hearts. If the Mojia village didn''t pay attention, it would fall into crisis.


    As long as the Minister of the Ministry of household, Dai Zhou, comes to the door to collect taxes, it naturally represents that the emperor has paid attention to this matter, the hidden cattle, ghosts and snake gods will naturally disappear, and the crisis of Mojia village will be eliminated.

 Chapter 212

    "Congratulations to the emperor!"


    Outside the reading hall, Merton and Yuan Shoucheng saw Li Shimin off with a long sigh of relief.


    "With a rising star like Mo Daoyou, the Mohists will never worry!" Yuan Shoucheng suddenly sighed, and even put Merton in an equal position in his tone.


    Yuan Shoucheng, who has become a master, can''t see that according to the development of Merton''s ideas, Mohism will rise again. Although Merton doesn''t have the name of a giant, he is actually a giant. In terms of status, Merton is enough to be on an equal footing with Yuan Shoucheng, a Taoist cow.


    "Taoist yuan is a bad boy. The Mohist school has risen from the micro. If you want to reproduce the glory of the Mohist school, you must do a useful study." Merton doesn''t hide his ideas in front of the mature yuan Shoucheng and is open and aboveboard.


    Yuan Shoucheng''s eyes flashed and he couldn''t help sighing. The Mohist school focused on reproducing the brilliance of ink technology, which benefited the people and was useful to the people. The imperial court contributes astronomical taxes, which is useful to the imperial court. Who will let useful talents abandon at will?


    "The Mohist school is really lucky to have such a rising star as Mo Daoyou." Yuan Shoucheng said with emotion.


    "Taoist yuan praised me wrongly. I''m just inheriting the benefits of my predecessors. Thank you for your outspoken words today. I''m grateful." Merton bowed to Yuan Shoucheng. If yuan Shoucheng hadn''t spoken for him today, I''m afraid he wouldn''t get away easily.


    "You''re welcome, Taoist Mo and his family are one of the hundred schools of thought. Naturally, they share the same spirit. But didn''t you also hide the harm of mercury poison for Taoist?" Yuan Shoucheng said with a mysterious smile.


    Suddenly, Morton was surprised, suddenly turned and stared at Yuan Shoucheng, clenched his palm, and couldn''t help sweating.


    "So, Taoism also knows the harm of mercury poison, so why use this to refine elixir?" Merton said inconceivably.


    "What if you know? The way to live forever is a thousand years of difficulties. Even if there is only a chance, no one is willing to give up." Yuan Shoucheng said calmly.


    Merton nodded silently. Indeed, what longevity can attract the world more. Since ancient times, how many people have gone astray in pursuit of immortality.


    "Taking food and seeking immortals are mostly mistaken by medicine."


    Even in the Han Dynasty, some people wrote poems to satirize the harm of pills, but who can refuse the desire for longevity, especially those who have power and power. When they are young, they are wise and powerful, but the older they are, they are more afraid of death. Pills are often like grasping the last straw. Even if they drink poison to quench their thirst, they will drink them without hesitation.


    "Taoist priest should belong to the inner alchemy sect!" Merton said. Yuan Shoucheng lived so long and was able to talk about the harm of pills with Mohist Zi Xinping. It was obviously the inner alchemy sect.


    Yuan Shoucheng nodded. The inner alchemy sect practices on its own. Or it looks at the palm of its hand. Although it also refines alchemy, it refines more plant and pill.


    "Taoist priest should know that no one has ever lived long by taking pills since ancient times, and even the harm of pills will break out one day. I''m afraid it will be a great disaster for Taoism." Merton pointed out the biggest problem of Mohism.


    Yuan Shoucheng took a swipe at the corners of his mouth, which was the phenomenon he was most worried about.


    Waidan sect is the best weapon for Taoism to attract secular worship, but it is most likely to hurt the foundation of Mohism. Alchemy seems mysterious, but in fact it is really dangerous. It will break out if you are not careful. There are many prescriptions that have been beheaded in history.


    It is said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty recruited a wide range of alchemists to refine elixirs. After passing the test, he was crowned an official and was exposed to the scam.


    "Mo Taoist friends can see through the harm of mercury poison as well. Why should they cover up for Taoism?" Yuan Shoucheng asked unintentionally.


    "Because in my opinion, the Taoist waidan sect is also as wrong as the Mohist sect before." Merton threw the ground and said in a voice.


    "Wrong way!" Yuan Shoucheng looked at Merton suspiciously.


    "Yes!" Morton said proudly, "in my opinion, the Taoist waidan sect refined gold and stone from all things. How much knowledge there will be in it, which is no less than the supreme knowledge of Mohism."


    Although alchemists have been criticized in later generations, they do not know that these alchemists are the most primitive chemists. Refining, purification, distillation and redox can all be invented and created by these alchemists, and even make gunpowder, one of the four great inventions. It can be said that they have made great contributions.


    If we simply deny and suppress it, destroy it and vanish in history, I''m afraid it will be the greatest loss to the Chinese nation.


    "So? The Mohists want a secret recipe for alchemy?" Yuan Shoucheng looked at Merton with a smile.


    Merton suddenly breathed. That was the highest achievement of chemistry in this era. If Mohism was allowed to develop step by step, I''m afraid it would not reach this level in decades.


    "Of course! But in return, the boy can provide the Taoist priest with a prescription that can make people return to their old age and children for free. The children eat it and grow up healthily, and the old man eats it with vigorous steps and youth, and there are no side effects."


    "Is there really such a good medicine in this world?" Yuan Shoucheng''s eyes flashed. If this medicine really has the curative effect as Merton said, with a little packaging, I''m afraid it will be much better than the pill with serious sequelae and no obvious effect.


    "Naturally, I dare not deceive Taoist priest. The secret lies in human bones. Taoist priest grows from children to adults, but human bones are growing. Mohist studies expressions. The highest content in bones is a substance called calcium. The growth of human bones is actually the continuous accumulation of calcium. This is actually the case for the elderly with pain, leg cramps and easy fracture The loss of calcium, "Merton explained.


    In this era when meat is very scarce, almost everyone, young and old, is short of calcium. If there are effective calcium tablets, it will certainly set off such a storm.


    "Good!" Yuan Shoucheng was immediately happy.


    At his age, he naturally experienced the calcium deficiency stage mentioned by Merton. With his own personal experience, he naturally believed that what Merton said was true.


    "If you are so happy to tell this secret, you are not afraid of being poor and eating your words." Yuan Shoucheng said.


    "Of course, Taoist yuan''s character can be trusted. But Taoist yuan is sure that without the help of the boy, you can find calcium that can be absorbed by the human body! Instead of repeating the path of pills." Merton smiled like a fox stealing a chicken.


    "Er, ER!" Yuan Shoucheng was shocked. Although he understood the truth, Merton didn''t reveal what to do, and there were no relevant talents in Taoism.


    "No wonder your majesty calls you catfish! It''s really slippery and autumn!" Yuan Shoucheng laughed angrily.


    Merton was not ashamed, but proud and said with a smile: "so, the Taoist priest agreed!"


    "However, instead of passing on alchemy to Mohism, he cooperated with Mohism to study the mystery of alchemy." Yuan Shoucheng shook his head.


    If alchemy is really as mysterious as Merton said, it will be the biggest treasure of Taoism. Yuan Shoucheng is certainly unwilling to give it to the Mohists.


    "Yes!" Merton said without hesitation. Since the Mohist school has cooperated with farmers and doctors, it''s nothing to have another Taoist school.


    And as Merton just said, the Mohists are trying to make themselves useful in order to survive. Naturally, it also includes being useful to Taoism,

 Chapter 213

    "Farewell!"


    Merton bowed his hand to Yuan Shoucheng and went to the three Qin Huaiyu waiting aside. He mentioned his courage. It was not fun to see through the flaws of Taoism.


    Merton didn''t expect that just one more word, Yuan Shoucheng caught a glimpse of the flaw and had to throw calcium tablets as bait, which was able to calm the matter.


    Fortunately, this time, there was no harvest. The secret of alchemy alone was enough to repay Merton''s adventure.


    "You must not be so reckless in the future!" Merton warned himself secretly.


    Qin Huaiyu was still immersed in the power of Li Shimin and Yu Wei. They didn''t notice the strange situation of Merton. The four hurried back to their homes with a heavy heart.


    Mo Fu.


    As soon as Merton''s front foot arrived at the Mo mansion, Fubo came to report that Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of people, arrived.


    "Lord Dai!" Merton hurriedly greeted. He didn''t expect the armor to come so quickly.


    "Hahaha, Lord Mo, don''t be polite. Send the account books of the Mojia village quickly!" Dai Zhou was excited and walked like a tiger. He couldn''t see the symptoms of the rumored lack of health at all.


    Dai Zhou was extremely happy. The drought relief in spring almost said that the imperial court''s Treasury was hollowed out. In addition, the emperor was lucky to be in Jiucheng Palace this time, which was a lot of expenses, but this time it was the busy season of the field, and the field tax had not been collected. It can be said that the Ministry of civil affairs is in an era of youth and yellow.


    At this time, the emperor suddenly sent a letter saying that Lord Mo had given up his knighthood privilege and voluntarily paid taxes. You know, during this period of time, the Mohists earned a lot of money, and the taxes they had to pay were not small numbers. At present, they could not restrain themselves, so they immediately set off to go to the Mohist house in person.


    "Lord Dai, please come in. The account books have already been counted." Merton quickly asked Dai Zhou to enter the lobby and waved his hand. Xu Jie held a large pile of account books in front of Dai Zhou.


    "Come on, carefully check the books of the Mohist house and make a good statistics of the taxes payable by the Mohist village. If you lose a penny, take it as a question!" Dai Zhou shouted and couldn''t wait


    Suddenly, more than a dozen people''s Ministry accounting rooms entered the living room with calculation chips in hand, arranged their papers on the spot, and checked the books of Mojia village on the spot, while Xu Jie stayed aside and was responsible for explaining to the people''s Ministry accounting room if there were any problems.


    "Lord Mo is selfless and dedicated to his country. He is really a model in the world. I will certainly play in the court to show my merit for you." Dai Zhou was relieved to hear the huge numbers.


    As the saying goes, people die for money. Birds die for food. Ordinary people don''t care about money. They want to extort money, let alone pay taxes. Merton''s move is no less than sending charcoal in the snow. It can be said that he has directly solved Dai Zhou''s urgent need,


    "I''m flattered. I''m deeply indebted to the emperor. Naturally, I''ll know how to repay my kindness and pay taxes in business. It''s a matter of course. I can''t afford to be praised by adults." Merton said positively.


    "Well, it''s only natural that if all the businessmen in the Tang Dynasty are like you, why worry about the decline of the Tang Dynasty." Dai Zhou said with emotion. As the Minister of the people''s Ministry of the Tang Dynasty, he can be said to be the top figure in the economic field of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, he knows how profiteering businessmen are, and many businessmen depend on the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty to evade business tax or try every means to evade tax. This is the reason for the low commercial tax in Datang.


    Counting the account books is a long job, but Dai Zhou doesn''t dislike the boredom at all. He refuses Merton''s invitation to sit in the side hall. He listens to the sound of the abacus beating in the accounting room. Merton has no choice but to make tea and serve him.


    "Lord Mo, don''t laugh at me. In my opinion, there''s no more wonderful sound of counting and beating at this time." Dai Zhou said. In his opinion, counting and raising means that all the money goes into the bag. The Tang Dynasty has just been founded. There are so many places that need money. All this depends on Dai Zhou''s hard support, I can''t wait to break a penny in half.


    "How dare, how dare, what Lord Dai thinks, the boy also agrees. In the boy''s opinion, there is no more wonderful knowledge than arithmetic at this time." Merton also sighed.


    "I forgot that Lord Mo is also a master of mathematics." the Ministry of the people is the Department that uses mathematics most, and Dai Zhou is also a master of mathematics. Naturally, he knows the use of mathematics, and Morton is famous for Mathematics in Chang''an.


    The old and the young suddenly found the topic and talked happily in the living room.


    After a long time, the voice of the calculation stopped, and the two talents reluctantly stopped.


    "Lord Mo''s compound interest calculation method really opened my eyes." Dai Zhou said with emotion.


    "Lord Dai''s economic way is also an eye opener for the younger generation." Merton also admired him. Even from the perspective of Merton''s later generations, Dai Zhou is a well deserved economic everyone.


    They immediately sympathized with each other, just like life confidants.


    "My Lord, the tax statistics have been completed!" the accounting room of the Ministry of civil affairs, headed by him, was a middle-aged man. After they complimented each other, they bowed down.


    "So fast?" Dai Zhou looked at the thick stacks of account books on the table and said in surprise. If it would take a long time, he specially prepared ten account rooms in order to be in a hurry. According to the lowest estimate, it would take at least two hours, which would be finished in a little more than half an hour.


    "Sir, Lord Mo is really a master of mathematics. The Mojia village adopts a new bookkeeping method. All bookkeeping is clear at a glance, and the lower officials and others only need to check the numbers." the head middle-aged accountant smiled bitterly. Not only has the arrangement been completed, but also the accounts in Mojia village are unusually clean. According to his many years of experience in checking accounts, this is indeed the most real account book, There was no tax evasion at all.


    "New accounting method?" Dai Zhou looked up in amazement.


    The middle-aged accounting room handed a book to Dai Zhou and said, "adults can see it at a glance."


    Dai Zhou stretched out his hand to take it, and kept flipping through it. The more he looked at it, the more excited he was.


    "Lord Mo really has a worldly talent. With such a simple debit and credit, he has solved the problems of countless accounting rooms in the world." Dai Zhou said excitedly.


    "My lord flattered me. My boy thought that no matter what the account books in this world do, all they want is a balance between loans and borrowing, and there must be loans and loans must be equal. So he established this new bookkeeping method on this basis." Merton said.


    "Lord Mo, I have an unkind request. Can you pass this method through the Tang Dynasty?" Dai Zhou said excitedly with a flush on his face.


    "Lord Dai, you''re welcome. This is a good method. Naturally, the Mohist school has no reason to hide. To be honest, there have been accounts printed with the new bookkeeping method in the printing house of the Mohist village for a long time, but it hasn''t spread." Merton nodded.


    Dai Zhou nodded, turned to the middle-aged accounting room and said, "after going back, the Ministry of the people immediately purchased a new accounting book. From then on, the Ministry of the people adopted this new accounting method."


    "Yes!" the middle-aged cashier nodded.


    They have witnessed the effect of this new accounting method. If the Ministry of civil affairs also adopts this method, their work will be greatly reduced.

 Chapter 214

    The new accounting method was just an episode and an unexpected joy. Dai Zhou didn''t forget the real purpose of coming to Mo mansion.


    "Sir, Mojia village should levy a tax of 113.1 million yuan." the middle-aged cashier reported with an excited face.


    "How much?" Dai Zhou and Merton exclaimed at the same time.


    "Eleven thousand three hundred and ten thousand!" the middle-aged accountant confirmed and repeated it again.


    Dai Zhou''s palm trembled. You know, during the Zhenguan period, the annual tax of the whole Tang Dynasty was only more than 10 million yuan. A village in Mojia village paid so much tax in only half a year, which almost reached the level of a rich county.


    "Lord Mo has promised Haikou in front of the emperor, but he can''t go back." Dai Zhou said quickly.


    More than 10000 yuan of money is enough for the Ministry of civil affairs to do too many things, and this is only the tax in the first half of the year. I''m afraid there will be large taxes every month in the future. Dai Zhou saw the account books of Mojia village with his own eyes. The income of the whole Mojia village will rise sharply, and the tax will be higher and higher in the future.


    "Naturally, I won''t go back. I''d like to ask, what''s the tax rate of Datang?" Merton asked. Of course, he didn''t think he collected more, but less!


    "According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, all business taxes are thirty and one." the middle-aged accountant said proudly.


    "Thirty taxes and one!" Merton was in a trance, which was much less than the 20% tax of later generations.


    What Merton didn''t know was that although the tax revenue of the Tang Dynasty was much lighter than that of later generations, the average 4000 people in the Tang Dynasty supported one official, and it soared to 400 people in the Qing Dynasty.


    As for China, ha ha! Therefore, it is reasonable for Datang to charge 30 taxes and one tax.


    The consistent money is 1000 Wen, and more than 10000 yuan. That''s astronomical. Even if the Ministry of civil affairs had prepared long ago, it only used the new four-wheel carriage customized by Mojia village. It has an amazing load and has pulled as many as ten carts.


    "I''ve heard for a long time that the Mohists in Chang''an City have the means of God of wealth, and indeed they deserve their reputation." Dai Zhoumei opened his eyes and smiled. With more than 10000 penetration, the Ministry of the people will be able to support the collection of summer grain.


    However, the people in the whole Mohist family looked sad one by one. The Mohist village had just lifted out of poverty for only half a year, and the plight of hunger and cold was still fresh in my memory. It was natural to cut my heart when I suddenly saw such money paying taxes.


    Ziyi was more mysterious and wanted to cry, a look of being loveless. Mo Er and others secretly wiped their tears while helping the Ministry of the people to pack money. Although Fu Bo barely kept calm, his eyes could not be separated from the money of the whole ten carriages.


    "Let Lord Dai laugh." Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Dai Zhou waved his hand and said, "I''ve seen countless people who love money. It''s just normal."


    Dai Zhou has also been a grass-roots official. Compared with some ugly behaviors of tax evasion, this move of Mojia village is commendable.


    "Sir, the tax of Mojia village has been paid, and the approval is correct." the middle-aged cashier nodded.


    "OK, write a receipt for Lord Mo and go back to the house immediately." Dai Zhou waved his big hand and was about to return with a full load of money.


    "Wait!"


    Suddenly, a loud drink came, and I saw Chang''an County Magistrate in green rush in from the main gate, followed by a group of small officials of Chang''an County Yamen behind him.


    "Su Luosheng, what does this mean?" Dai Zhou shouted coldly, calling the name of the magistrate of Chang''an County.


    "Mojia village is a village under the jurisdiction of Chang''an County. Tax collection is a proper thing for a small county. How can I bother the Shangguan to do it himself." Su Luosheng, the magistrate of Chang''an County, is modest, but his men are not merciful and firmly control the road of the carriage.


    Although they all collect taxes, it is naturally different who collects them. If the Ministry of Civil Affairs collects them personally, the Chang''an County government can''t lose a penny. If the Chang''an County government collects taxes, it can naturally intercept some of them.


    Su Luosheng looked at the money cars in front of him with sparkling eyes, and his heart suddenly breathed. In fact, there are countless places where the people''s ministry needs money, and there are so many places where Chang''an city needs money.


    trifle?


    Dai Zhou couldn''t help getting angry. If he could collect thousands of taxes a day, he would be willing to collect taxes every day.


    However, what Su Luosheng said is also reasonable. Usually, taxes are collected by the county, and then uniformly distributed to all States and counties by the Ministry of civil affairs. However, there are too many problems involved.


    Xu Jie explained the reason in a low voice in Merton. Merton suddenly realized that this is not the common place to compete for financial power with the central government in later generations.


    "Su County Magistrate doesn''t bother you about this. In the future, the taxes of Mojia village will be collected directly by the Ministry of people." Dai Zhou waved his big hand.


    "Dai Shangshu''s words are different. How can the people''s government directly collect taxes in this world? If so, why should small counties? In the future, the people''s government will collect the taxes of all States and counties in the Tang Dynasty." Su Luosheng sarcastically said that he has a deep foundation to be a magistrate of Chang''an County and is not afraid of Dai Zhou. Moreover, he has made great achievements recently because of the city''s early warning system, It is the critical moment of promotion and the time when money is needed to build political achievements. Naturally, we will not give in. Moreover, the tax of Mojia village is an astronomical figure every year. How can we let go of it.


    Dai Zhou was also angry at the speech and asked the people''s Ministry to collect taxes in the whole Tang Dynasty. It was impossible. Therefore, it was up to these county magistrates to collect taxes.


    The two quarreled. No one was willing to give in in the face of such a huge amount of wealth, and it was also related to the continuous flow of taxes in the future.


    "No, if the Lord is here, let''s see who the Lord is willing to pay the tax to? Can it?" Dai Zhou turned his spear to Merton. In his opinion, he is a top-ranking official after all, and Merton will certainly make a wise choice.


    Merton immediately wanted to curse his mother. One was the minister, the other was the county magistrate and now in charge. Didn''t he let him bake on the fire?


    Su Luosheng also wanted to understand the level. He didn''t have no chance to talk about his advantages, so he nodded and agreed with Dai Zhou''s idea.


    "The Ministry of civil affairs is in charge of the expenses of the imperial court. There must be many urgent needs for money," Merton said.


    Dai Zhou immediately stroked his beard and nodded. He secretly said to Mo Jiazi and looked at Su Luosheng''s iron green face proudly.


    However, Merton changed his tone and said, "Chang''an city is the capital of the emperor, which is related to the face of the Tang Dynasty, and the daily maintenance and management is expensive."


    Su Luosheng''s face turned from cloudy to sunny.


    Dai Zhou suddenly scolded Merton, a little catfish, for being slippery. He even wanted to offend him. He couldn''t help humming angrily: "there''s no solution if you say so!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "there''s no way."


    "Oh, tell me?" said Dai Zhou.


    "Since ancient times, the dispute between the Ministry of the people and the local financial power has never stopped. If the Ministry of the people collects more, the local government is in great difficulty. If the Ministry of the people collects less, the country is weak." Merton pointed out the problem.


    Dai Zhou is an economist. Of course, he knows what Merton said.


    "From a young man''s point of view, the tax revenue of a county is generally limited. If the tax revenue of a county is divided according to a certain proportion, one part is directly charged into the national treasury, which is called national tax, which is uniformly allocated by the Ministry of civil affairs, and the other part is left in the place, which is called local tax, which is used as local public funds. In this way, it can not only ensure the stability of the financial resources of the Ministry of civil affairs, but also solve the crisis of local hardship." Merton directly instilled the theory of land tax and national tax into them. Although it is not as detailed as that of later generations, compared with the local tax collection in the Tang Dynasty, the rough tax system uniformly planned by the Ministry of civil affairs is much stronger.


    Su Luosheng''s eyes lit up immediately. He wanted to intercept these taxes. In the end, he had to hand them over to the Ministry of the people, and the taxes he spent should also be reported. Besides, Dai Zhou is an upper official after all, and he can''t hold on all the time. He just had a tough attitude and had no choice but to do so. Otherwise, the Ministry of the people will have a unified control, and it''s not sure who will take the money. Javascript:!


    If we can follow what Merton said as a common practice and leave some fiscal and tax discretionary, it is naturally the best.


    "National tax, local tax." Dai Zhou''s eyes brightened as he thought about it. He only felt that he had opened a new door to tax collection. In the process of collecting taxes before, he clearly felt the resistance from the local government. If divided by this, as long as there are tax collection places, there will be no taxes from the Ministry of the people, and it can stimulate the local government to collect taxes actively, because the more taxes, Local governments have more financial power.


    "Lord Mo is indeed worthy of being the pillar of the country. National tax and local tax are different. I will play the imperial court at the meeting and let the imperial court discuss it." Dai Zhou said solemnly.


    "Mr. Dai flatters me. I''m just the result of a quarrel between the two. I really don''t dare to take credit." Merton said modestly.


    "Lord Mo doesn''t have to be too modest. If this law is passed, it will certainly be a blessing for the local people of the Tang Dynasty." Su Luosheng lamented that the central government will take away the financial power uniformly, and the local people are short of money. Even if they have political aspirations, it is difficult for a skillful woman to cook without rice.


    "Magistrate Su, since I have collected these taxes in person, I can''t deliver them to you. However, I can give you permission to do what you said before. Tomorrow you can go to the Ministry of people to get money. As for the future taxes of Mojia village, I will make a decision after I play the tax sharing law of the imperial court." Dai Zhou said.


    "Obey the orders of the superior officer!" said suluosheng solemnly.

 Chapter 215

    "Congratulations, Shangguan!"


    At the gate of Mo mansion, Merton and suluosheng send Dai Zhou away.


    "Lord Mo, thank you today." Su Luosheng sighed a sigh of relief and arched his hands to Merton with gratitude.


    If Merton''s tax sharing system is implemented, he will be a county magistrate.


    "Merton didn''t repay the kindness of Su County Magistrate last time. It''s a small matter." Merton waved his hand and said that although Su County Magistrate saw Qin Qiong''s face at the time of the fish Gang incident, he helped Mojia village a lot. Since then, Mojia village has really taken off.


    Merton''s mind changed. Since he was a good man, he said in a low voice: "Lord Su, please forgive me. The national tax system is the foundation of the country. No matter how good the tax sharing system is, it is impossible to pass in a short time."


    Su County Magistrate suddenly changed his face and said, "no, I''m in the trap."


    Even if chaotang agrees with the tax sharing system, it can''t be implemented in a year and a half. It''s not certain whether he will still be in Chang''an County at that time?


    Su County Magistrate''s eyes turned, but he saw Merton standing aside. He immediately knew that Merton had paid attention. At present, he was shameless and asked, "please give me advice."


    "Although the tax sharing system is good, after all, no one has ever implemented it, and the advantages and disadvantages of it are naturally unknown. If you choose another place as a pilot, you can check and make up for deficiencies. If it is feasible, it will be implemented all over the world. Even if it is not feasible, it will not make much mistakes."


    Su Luosheng said thoughtfully, "Lord mohou means to let me strive for Chang''an County as a pilot."


    Merton nodded: "yes, Chang''an County is close at hand. If there are mistakes, they can be corrected in time."


    "Of course, credit can also be given. In this way, regardless of success or failure, Chang''an County can have enough money, but once he succeeds, as the first to reform, he will be able to enter the sight of the chaotang princes and make progress.


    Su Luosheng thought for only three seconds and had already made a decision. Instead of doing nothing, he might as well seize the opportunity and fight well.


    "Thank you for your advice and leave!" suloxon arched his hand. He got Merton''s advice and couldn''t wait to go back to make preparations.


    "Lord Su, go slowly!" Merton sent him outside the house, which was a sigh of relief.


    So far, the tax problem of Mojia village has been successfully ended. Merton was relieved. As soon as he turned around, he saw the whole Mojia family gathered together and looked at Merton pitifully.


    "I''m born with a talent. I''ll come back after thousands of gold have been lost. Isn''t it more than 10000 Guan? As long as the skills of Mojia village are not lost, these 10000 Guan will be earned back sooner or later." Merton said boldly.


    "More than 10000?"


    When a whole ten household escort carriages full of copper money crossed Chang''an City Street, the whole Chang''an journey was shocked.


    It is reasonable to say that the annual tax collected by the Ministry of household is much more than 10000 yuan, but since ancient times, no village has been able to pay such a high tax.


    In the pan restaurant, all the diners rushed to the critical window and stared at the carts of money one by one.


    "One cart, two carts,... Ten carts!" Sun Ju Ren looked at the carriage that both horses were struggling to pull. It suddenly became clear to him that the rumor was indeed true. The twelve carriages did have more than 10000 yuan of money.


    Wan Guan''s family wealth is the highest honor to describe a rich family, and the taxes of mojiazi have reached Wan Guan for half a year, and everyone knows that Mojia village is booming, and the taxes of Mojia village will be more and more every month in the future.


    "It''s said that the Mohist family gave up the privilege of title and paid taxes on their own initiative." shopkeeper Pan said tastefully. The taxes paid by the Mohist village alone are enough to buy several pan restaurants.


    The crowd nodded. The news about mojiazi was the most sensitive in Chang''an city. The Ministry of civil affairs and Chang''an County government sent out on a large scale, and the news naturally could not be hidden.


    "Just pay taxes in Mojia village, how much should Mojia village earn!" exclaimed shopkeeper Pan''s nephew.


    "At least 300000 Guan!" someone was familiar with the tax rate of Datang, swallowed his spit and stammered, 300000 Guan, what a huge number it would be!


    As the saying goes, wealth is not benevolent, but when people mention that Mojia village earns such a huge amount of wealth, they don''t crown it with unscrupulous businessmen, because the money of Mojia village is to create new things through ink technology. Every penny of money is earned aboveboard, and what they do is also beneficial to the country and the people.


    The whole Chang''an city is singing the God of wealth myth of Mojia village. It took only half a year to turn Mojia village from a poor village to a tax paying village.


    The MOH family, who created all this, was crowned the God of wealth. Merton''s poems at the gate of the MOH house also spread throughout Chang''an city.


    Soon after the escort vehicles of the Ministry of civil affairs could not leave, Merton''s new poems also spread all over Chang''an city.


    "I''m born to be useful. I''ll come back after a thousand gold coins are scattered."


    Countless people read this poem over and over again, and each time they read it, they felt that they had a new understanding.


    "The Mohist is worthy of the Mohist family. We can''t wait for it with this heroic spirit?" sun Juren sighed, not only will he make money, but also his poems are well written, and he won''t give people a way to live.


    However, in the pan restaurant, more people pay attention to the thousands of gold, one by one calculating how much gold mojiazi''s 300000 Guan can be exchanged for.


    "Then you''re wrong, then you''re wrong. All the money earned in Mojia village is owned by all the people in Mojia village, and it''s not the son of Mojia at all." sun churen said with a sneer.


    "How can it be that Mojia village is the fief of Lord mohou." shopkeeper Pan''s nephew doesn''t believe it. In his opinion, how can those landlords give away their wealth.


    Sun Juren smiled proudly and saw that everyone''s eyes were focused on him. He slowly took a sip of tea: "Mohist School pursues universal love rather than attack, and sages are still the same. Therefore, all businesses in Mohist village are not owned by individuals, but collectively by Mohist village."


    "Ah!"


    Everyone couldn''t help shouting.


    Shopkeeper pan couldn''t help but break his fingers and calculate. 300000 passes were distributed to 5000 people in Mojia village, which was a full average of 60 passes.


    "Isn''t it that Mojia village is already the richest village in the world?" the people in the restaurant exclaimed.


    Many people nodded silently. In ordinary villages, except the big landlords, most of the other villagers were in a state of food and clothing.


    Mojia village is not only rich, but also the whole village compulsory education and free medical care in Mojia village are enough to kill countless villages in Datang and make countless people yearn for it.

 Chapter 216

    The news that the public loser carpenter''s shop and Mojia village paid 10000 taxes immediately caused an uproar among the public loser''s children.


    "A ten thousand tax." public loser Hao couldn''t help being surprised. He is also a 15-year-old boy, and he is still living under his father''s wings, while mojiazi is not very rich.


    "The Mohists are so lucky that they made so much money?" the public loser said sour.


    Although the public losers have also made a lot of money recently, most of them have been taken away by the Wang family and the eldest Sun family. The money left to the public losers is very poor. At most, it is hard money. Where can we see Wanguan wealth.


    "Yes, yes." the other public losers'' children nodded one after another, and suddenly a sour atmosphere filled the public loser family.


    People are more popular than people. After gonglosers came to Chang''an City, although their life was much better than before, it was a world away from Mojia village.


    "It''s better to retreat and weave a net than envy a fish. The move of Mohist school just proves that this is the right path. What Mohist school can do, public losers will be able to do. As long as public losers continue to work hard, they will certainly have more money in the future." public loser Hong''s eyes flashed, and the model of Mohist village let him see the hope of the rise of public losers.


    "Yes, master!" a group of children of Mojia village said excitedly. They paid more attention to the imitation products of Mojia village.


    In their opinion, when their imitation products circulate in Chang''an City, the wealth of Mohism will naturally be his.


    When the news of Mojia village paying taxes spread all over Chang''an City, countless people suddenly realized that before they knew it, Mojia village had gathered so much wealth.


    Different from the concealment of some big businessmen, Mojia village seems to have no concept of hiding money at all. It directly exposed huge wealth to the public, causing an uproar.


    In Merton''s view, the huge wealth earned by the Mohist village can''t hide from the eyes of the public. Instead of hiding it, it''s better to be open, so that the Mohist village can be called a place admired by everyone and let the world see the power of Mohism. In this way, the Mohist school can be better developed and expanded.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tai Chi hall, great court meeting.


    It seems that June is coming. Today''s Grand Court meeting is the last Grand Court meeting in front of your Majesty''s Jiucheng palace. Therefore, all the things accumulated before should be dealt with in a hurry. Otherwise, I''m afraid there will be more twists and turns when Li Shimin comes to Jiucheng palace.


    Soon, all the government affairs were discussed one by one. There was no prevarication or dispute among the three provinces and six ministries, and there was a very tacit understanding between them. Even the most difficult to talk about armor was rare and generous, making up for some money and food owed before.


    Many courtiers smiled in their hearts and knew why Dai Zhou''s generosity came from today. It was not based on the Wanguan taxes paid by the Mohist village and the expensive taxes in the future.


    Unknowingly, the sun has risen high, and the hot sun is baking the palace. An official wearing Fei color five grades has the lowest grade, so his position is also closest to the door. He only feels the heat wave on his back. After a while, his back has been sweating.


    The officials in the scarlet clothes felt sad sweat stains, and secretly complained: "I hope your majesty is lucky that 90% of the palace can take me there this time. Otherwise, according to such hot weather, it would be a living suffering to stay in Chang''an city."


    The official in the scarlet clothes couldn''t help looking at Fang Xuanling in the front. Whether he can go to the 90% palace depends on whether the adults appreciate it or not.


    Fang Xuanling also felt the sultry heat of the Tai Chi hall and saw that the work had been completed: "inform your majesty! All the transfer work of the three provinces and six departments has been completed. It will certainly ensure the normal operation of your majesty during his lucky 90% palace. This is the list of officials accompanying you this time. Please have a look."


    After Fang Xuanling reported, he handed a memorial. Pound immediately took it and handed it to Li Shimin.


    "Inform your majesty that the military department has completed the handover, the defense of Jiucheng palace has been deployed, and the 16 guards will certainly be able to defend your Majesty''s safety to the death." after Fang Xuanling''s performance, Qin Qiong immediately stepped forward. This time, Qin Qiong and others are personally responsible for Li Shimin''s security and defense in Jiucheng palace.


    To everyone''s surprise, Li Shimin didn''t look through Fang Xuanling''s Memorial and said slowly: "Aiqing has worked hard, but this time, I''m afraid the trip to Jiucheng palace will be cancelled."


    "What, cancelled?" suddenly it boils in the hall.


    Li Shimin didn''t want to have fun during his trip to Jiucheng palace. In fact, it was caused by the hot weather and the condition of empress changsun. Therefore, there was no great resistance from the imperial court. Originally, all the work had been prepared, but now Li Shimin said to cancel it.


    Your majesty is wise. It''s really a blessing for the people all over the world to pity the people. "Kong Yingda was stunned and thought Li Shimin did so to pity the people. He was immediately happy.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" suddenly many civil servants sang praises.


    The eldest sun Wuji frowned and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Chang''an city is extremely hot and dry. I''m afraid it''s not conducive to the recovery of the queen."


    Empress Chang sun is the greatest support of the Chang Sun family. Naturally, Wu Ji Chang sun doesn''t want an accident with empress Chang sun.


    "Yes, the empress''s illness is a big event. Your majesty should not believe these sour scholars and delay the empress''s body." Cheng Yaojin glared and directly antagonized the civil servants.


    "Old man Cheng, don''t spit out blood. Which one of us advised the emperor." Kong Ying''s old blood poured into her heart when she reached Dayton. Cheng Yaojin''s excrement basin made him angry.


    Seeing that the court hall was about to quarrel again, Li Shimin snorted heavily, and suddenly the whole court hall was silent.


    "This trip to Jiucheng palace was cancelled for no other reason, but it was no longer needed," Li Shimin said.


    "No need?" the courtier was puzzled and didn''t know what Li Shimin meant.


    Li Shimin didn''t explain. He stretched out his hand and immediately ten eunuchs came in with a copper basin filled with white smoke.


    "Is this an ice basin?"


    The courtiers felt the coolness in the Tai Chi hall. They were surprised. Didn''t they say that the ice in the imperial palace had been used up long ago?


    "Yes, this is ice! But it''s not the ice hidden in the palace, but the ice making method that Merton came out first. The ice just made last night!" Li Shimin said proudly.


    After the success of Merton''s experiment, Li Shimin pulled a large amount of saltpeter from the palace and rushed out a lot of ice overnight, which was enough for the ice of the whole palace.


    "What? Making ice in summer!" all the courtiers looked at the ice basin in front of them strangely. After paying Wanguan taxes, mojiazi once again attracted the attention of important courtiers in the Manchu Dynasty.


    After Li Shimin''s personal explanation and the iron facts in front of him, many courtiers believed that the Mexican family made ice in summer. With a continuous supply of ice, empress changsun naturally didn''t have to go to Jiuhua palace for summer vacation. Staying in Chang''an City would be cool all summer.


    Ink technology quietly showed its power again, which directly changed the decision of chaotang.

 Chapter 217

    The ice basin soon exudes its power. After a while, the hot and dry heat in the Tai Chi hall has dissipated. It''s a great enjoyment of life to feel the crisp autumn in the hot summer.


    "No wonder your majesty cancelled the trip to 90% of the palace!"


    The ministers suddenly realized that if they could live in such a comfortable environment every day, there would be no need to go to other places for summer vacation. You know, there are too many aspects involved in the emperor''s travel, and the ministers naturally don''t want to trouble.


    "Your Majesty, I don''t know the cost of ice making in summer. Can it be carried out on a large scale!" Dai Zhou asked the question that everyone was concerned about.


    "Don''t worry, Aiqing. This is wall cream, that is, saltpeter. You can make ice as long as you put saltpeter into water. It''s easy to make. Moreover, according to Merton, the saltpeter in water can be boiled dry again and recycled again." Li Shimin Lang said.


    The loyal minister suddenly realized that Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of works, was even more delighted and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured that saltpeter is not rare. In a short time, the Ministry of works will certainly find enough saltpeter for your majesty."


    The Ministry of industry is in charge of the world''s industries and mines. Of course, it is no stranger to saltpeter. Among the industries and mines controlled by the Ministry of industry, saltpeter is produced. Others can''t be guaranteed, but Duan Lun is confident to supply the imperial palace.


    "Duan Aiqing wants to wait for the large-scale production of saltpeter ice, and open all the government offices, so you Aiqing don''t have to work in the heat." Li Shimin waved his hand. Li Shimin is familiar with this kind of buying people''s hearts.


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    For all the officials of the court, they are a golden body. They usually have good clothes and food. Naturally, they don''t want to suffer from the heat.


    At the same time, he secretly praised that only Mohists could make ice in summer.


    Seeing the harmonious atmosphere in the court hall, Li Shimin was greatly relieved. He nodded and said, "let''s discuss one more thing today, that is the tax sharing system proposed by Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of the people."


    "Tax sharing system!"


    The hall princes were suddenly surprised and couldn''t help looking at the front row of armor.


    Dai Zhou went to the forefront and said, "my colleagues, when I collected taxes from Mojia village this time, I happened to meet Su County Magistrate of Chang''an County, but I personally experienced the long-standing contradiction between the Ministry of the people and the counties and the struggle for financial power."


    "The dispute over financial rights!" all the officials of the court immediately knew it.


    "For a long time, the method adopted between chaotang and the counties has been local tax collection, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs has uniformly planned the specific purpose of tax. In this way, it is inevitable that there will be uneven disputes, which will cause many places to be in trouble."


    Moreover, when using taxes, it is also quite focused. There will inevitably be places beyond the care of so many states and counties in the country.


    "Especially in some rich counties, there are many local taxes. As a result, the collected taxes are subsidized to poor counties, which will cause many local taxes to be inactive. Last year, the taxes of 80% of the counties in China just exceeded the standards issued by the Ministry of people, and few exceeded the standards." Dai Zhou told an indisputable fact.


    Taxes can be said to be the foundation of a country. The expenditure of the army, the salaries of officials, the operation of the Empire and the development of the country all need to be supported by taxes. If taxes are reduced, it represents the reduction of a country.


    Unfortunately, sometimes money is really not enough. At this time, the Ministry of civil affairs in charge of money obviously uses money where it is most needed, and local development is put in the last place.


    "The country needs money, while the local areas need development, so I think we should establish a reasonable tax sharing system to divide taxes into two, most of which are under the unified planning of the state, and a small number of which are left for the personal use of each county. In this way, we can not only give consideration to the court and the local government, but also enable the local government to collect taxes actively." Dai Zhou concluded.


    "This is not feasible! The taxes of the imperial court are already tight. If the local government intercepts some of them, it will only make the country poor and weak!" Dai Zhou just said that Fang Xuanling was the first to oppose. He was in charge of government affairs. Naturally, he knew how much the imperial court spent every year.


    "Fang Xiang''s words are different. States and counties are the foundation of imperial taxes. If the place is rich, the court will collect more taxes." Dai Zhou retorted.


    "The rich place and the poor imperial court will certainly be detrimental to the stability of the Empire." changsun Wuji shook his head and said. In ancient times, strong cadres and weak branches have always been implemented. They are most afraid of local expansion and threatening the rule of the central government.


    "Lord Chang sun, how can a place threaten the central government? Besides, being rich is the blessing of the local people, which can not only reflect the rule of his Majesty''s benevolence and morality, but also contribute more taxes to the Empire." Wei Zheng got up to defend Dai Zhou. In his opinion, such a tax sharing system that can take into account both the local and the court is naturally the blessing of the people and can make the local people rich, Then he naturally agrees with Wei Zheng.


    The whole dynasty is divided into two factions. Those who oppose and agree with the tax sharing system have more reasons, and no one can convince anyone.


    With a wave of his hand, Li Shimin immediately calmed down the whole hall.


    "Disputes over financial rights have existed since ancient times. If you listen to them, it will be dark. If you listen to them, it will be clear. Since this is caused by the dispute between the Ministry of civil affairs and Chang''an County, I have already informed the Chang''an County Magistrate to wait outside. If I didn''t listen to the Chang''an County Magistrate''s explanation," Li Shimin said.


    After a while, a bodyguard led suluosheng Tai Chi hall, Chang''an county magistrate, sweating.


    "See you, Emperor!" Su Luosheng saluted respectfully.


    "Su Aiqing is flat. The tax sharing system is caused by a dispute between you and the Ministry of household. At this time, you can speak freely. I''ll sue you innocent." Li Shimin said.


    "Yes!" said suluosheng with a sudden courage, "Ladies and gentlemen, Chang''an County is the capital of the emperor, and the daily maintenance costs a lot of money. Since years later, Chang''an County has at least three bridges and five roads in urgent need of repair because of lack of money. It has been the Qingshiban road in Chang''an city. In addition to ensuring the maintenance of the avenue, many other roads in Chang''an County need to be repaired immediately, but they have been delayed, coupled with the repair of the county government..."


    Su Luosheng spits. As the saying goes, San Sheng is unfortunate. The county magistrate is attached to Guo, and he is directly attached to the imperial capital. He is a villain for ten generations. Needless to say, he has suffered hardships.


    "It''s natural for people to repair bridges and roads when they are in corvee service, and it will be solved naturally after autumn." Fang Xuanling frowned.


    "Lord Fang, Chang''an city is the place with the most smooth flow of people. Tens of thousands of people go in and out every day. If they wait until the autumn, I''m afraid it will take too long." Su Luosheng said with a bitter smile.


    Fang Xuanling was suddenly silent. What Su Luosheng said is indeed the truth. Some things can wait, but many times, where will things wait? Chang''an County is a famous rich county, so is it. What if other poor counties?


    "Although the tax sharing system has a certain truth, the tax system is the pillar of the country. How can we change it? The matter will be discussed again from the long time." Sun Wuji still objected.


    Many courtiers immediately nodded and seconded. Although everyone knows that the place is difficult, after all, no one dares to risk universal condemnation and improve the tax sharing system.


    Li Shimin also nodded in agreement. Although he appreciated the method of tax sharing system, after all, the founding of the Tang Dynasty was just a time when stability was needed. Of course, he didn''t want to regenerate branches at this time.


    Dai Zhou was immediately disappointed. According to his eyes, of course, he knew the benefits of the tax sharing system. After the implementation of the tax sharing system, he could transfer the original small things to the local government. The household department only needed to control the large expenses, but he also admitted that this was indeed something that could be passed in one or two days.


    Su Luosheng was reminded by Merton that he had already guessed that there would be such a situation. At that time, he said: "I inform your majesty that Wei minister also agrees with Lord Chang sun''s point of view. The national tax system really can''t be moved lightly."


    Suddenly, the court princes looked at Su Luosheng unexpectedly. They didn''t understand why he suddenly defected just now because he was still earning power for the local government. Was it because he was afraid of the power of his eldest sun Wuji? Even Li Shimin couldn''t help frowning. Such an official without a position is not the blessing of the people.


    Unexpectedly, Su Luosheng said again: "However, Wei Chen believes that the tax sharing system is the best solution to solve the financial rights disputes between the Ministry of household and local counties. Any new system will inevitably have various defects. Chang''an County is willing to become a pilot of the tax sharing system to check and make up for your Majesty''s deficiencies. If it is feasible, it will be a blessing to the world. If there are defects, Chang''an County can correct them in time."


    All the people in the hall were the elites of the Tang Dynasty. As soon as they turned their minds, they immediately understood Su Luosheng''s plan. They couldn''t help but secretly said that Su Luosheng had a good idea.


    "What do you think of Aiqing?" Li Shimin said with a flash in his eyes. This is indeed a good way.


    "I beg your pardon!" Dai Zhou said first.


    In this way, the Ministry of civil affairs and local governments have agreed. In addition, there is only one pilot in Chang''an County. Naturally, they do not need to be villains in vain.


    At present, Chang''an County, as a pilot of tax sharing system, has been set.

 Chapter 218

    Facts have proved that for the emperor, as long as there are things on his territory, everything is not a problem. In one day, the saltpeter around Chang''an City has been searched out.


    The ice produced the next day was enough to supply the whole palace, and the third day was enough to supply the chaotang.


    In the legislative Palace


    The four ice basins are constantly emitting cold air and a trace of white smoke. The summer heat in the whole hall is completely eliminated and refreshing. Once the ice in the ice basin is melted, there will be palace maids to change into a new ice basin and continue to maintain the temperature in the store.


    On the soft couch, Princess Changle, dressed in colorful palace clothes, solemnly took a stethoscope on her face and was giving treatment to empress changsun who was lying on the soft couch. Although a doctor had already treated her, empress changsun still cooperated with Princess Changle very much.


    "The mother''s health is all right."


    Princess Changle breathed a heavy sigh of relief, took the stethoscope away from empress changsun, loosened the sphygmomanometer and said happily.


    Not only did the students of the Imperial College take a field holiday, but even the women''s medical school was no exception. She also took a month''s field holiday. That''s why Princess Changle was able to return to the palace and reunite with the empress changsun.


    "Changle''s medical skills are excellent, and her mother feels much better." empress changsun said with a pleased face. As a princess, she didn''t have to suffer from learning medicine, but Princess Changle was happy for her illness. How can this filial piety not move the empress changsun.


    "The empress came to laugh at me again. The child has only learned medicine for a few days. It can''t compare with the imperial doctors. However, the empress''s recovery is thanks to these ice pots to relieve the summer heat." Princess Changle said angrily.


    Empress Chang sun''s gas illness is most afraid of the hot weather, which often causes the symptoms of chest tightness. Although there was ice in the Imperial Palace in the past, it can only be taken out to relieve the summer heat when it was the hottest. Where would she use ice so extravagantly as now? Without the hot frying, empress Chang sun''s gas illness naturally improved a lot.


    "I was going to Jiucheng palace for summer vacation. I was worried that I would be separated from the emperor. With this ice making method, we could reunite our mother and daughter." empress Chang sun sighed. If you want to go to the Jiucheng palace, I''m afraid you won''t be able to come back in a month or two. Princess Changle has to go to the women''s medical school, which naturally can''t follow.


    Although it''s cool to go to Jiucheng palace, it''s not easy to travel. Now it''s better to stay in the Lizheng palace and enjoy such a comfortable environment.


    "It''s said that the saltpeter ice making was invented by Lord mohou." Changle looked curiously at the ice pots around. Merton''s ice making means in summer surprised her.


    Empress Chang sun smiled and said, "who else can make these strange things except him."


    "Empress mother, this ice making method is not a strange thing, and it can make her condition better. That''s the best knowledge." Princess Changle said with her mouth.


    "Still happy and filial."


    The mother and daughter were talking about themselves, and they were happy.


    "Touch!"


    The door of the Lizheng hall was pushed open by Li Zhi, who was covered with mud stains. Suddenly, a hot air rushed into the hall.


    "It''s still cool here after the mother!" Li Zhi rushed to the ice basin in front of the empress changsun and felt the cool air.


    "Where are you playing crazy again? How come you''re covered with mud?" empress Chang sun spoiled and wiped the mud off Lizhi''s face with a handkerchief.


    "After telling his mother, Merton was digging a pond there, and the child accidentally stuck a little mud?" any child is naturally close to his mother, even if his mother is the queen. If Li Shimin were here, Li Zhi would have hid far away.


    "Lord Mo? Why did he dig a pond and raise fish?" Princess Changle was surprised.


    Empress Chang sun also showed surprised eyes,


    "It''s for swimming and summer vacation! To build a big swimming pool, the water is blue and beautiful!" Li Zhilian said with a gesture.


    "Nine younger brothers, what nonsense are you talking about? What''s the matter with the water? Blue?" Changle spoiled and touched Li Zhi''s dirty face. I haven''t heard of the swimming pool. It''s just a place to take a bath, but how can the water used for bathing be blue?


    "Is it true? If you don''t believe it, sister Huang, look!" Li Zhi saw that Changle didn''t believe it. He immediately looked anxiously, stretched out his hand, took out a piece of drawing paper from his cuff and handed it to Changle.


    "Is this?" Princess Changle took a look, puzzled, and was immediately attracted by the scenery in the painting.


    In the spacious pond, a pool of blue water rippled with microwaves. The three sides were covered with white marble slabs, and the last side was covered with sand. Coupled with Merton''s spring and autumn strokes, a beautiful swimming pool painting jumped onto the paper.


    Merton''s summer plan was exposed when he accidentally ran into Li Shimin. Merton simply didn''t do it and offered up the swimming pool, so as not to be blamed by Li Shimin in the future.


    At the same time, Li Shimin also presented the effect picture of the swimming pool. At the first sight, Li Shimin decided to build a swimming pool in the Imperial Palace, while Merton was undoubtedly arrested and responsible for building a swimming pool for the imperial palace. After all, only he had built this new thing.


    "How beautiful?" Princess Changle was immediately attracted by the beautiful scenery in the painting.


    "Beach, sea, it''s just like visiting the sea?" whispered the eldest Sun Queen,


    "The sea?" Princess Changle suddenly brightened her eyes and fell into reverie.


    The most important reason why the style of swimming pool is so high in future generations is to give people a feeling of being in the sea.


    The longer you stay in the deep palace, the more you yearn for freedom. The sea is the most vast and free representative. Princess Changle can''t help but become more and more interested in the swimming pool in the painting.


    In the hot summer, on the weeping willows held by one beside the Taiye pool, several cicadas who escaped the pursuit of eunuchs kept singing, adding a bit of irritability to the hot weather.


    In front of a side hall next to the Taiye pool,


    Merton is sweating and directing the hard work of a group of craftsmen. Although the efficiency has been improved ten times with the help of Mohist machinery, the amount of swimming pool built by Merton for the imperial palace is much larger than that in the backyard of the Mohist house.


    "The adult area should be more than one foot deep, and the children''s area must not be more than three feet deep. At the diving platform, the water depth is two feet, and the track should be more than 50 steps." Merton explained his requirements to the craftsman who will be sent by the supervisor.


    Of course, it is not the children of Mohism who are responsible for the construction, but the craftsmen who will be sent by the supervisor. The first is a middle-aged craftsman who is extremely skilled and can only compare with Lao Zhang tou and others in Mohist village.


    "Lord Hou, don''t worry, it won''t delay the construction period." the middle-aged will be a big craftsman, and promised with sweat. In his opinion, the construction of this swimming pool is the simplest thing. Although the quantities are larger, the completion of the construction is only a matter of time, and there is no technical content in itself.


    Merton inspected again and found that everything was working normally. Then he returned to the next pavilion under the weeping willow. He found that his drawings on the stone table of the pavilion had already disappeared. Then he remembered Li Zhi''s sneaky action just now. He must have taken it away.


    "My brother is naughty. Please forgive me for taking away master Mo''s drawing!" a voice as light as an Oriole sounded behind Merton.

 Chapter 219

    Merton turned around and saw a palace girl with a slightly familiar face coming over with a dejected Lizhi and a little blessing to Merton.


    "Don''t you dare?" Merton quickly dodged and could call Li Zhi his brother. Naturally, it was the princess.


    "Are you Li Zhi?"


    The more Merton looked at the palace girl in front of him, the more familiar he felt. Suddenly, he suddenly realized that this was the princess Changle who was brought to the ink house by Li Chengqian that day?


    "Changle used a pseudonym that day! I hope Lord Mo will forgive me!" Princess Changle said with a red face. After all, the princess who had received strict etiquette was exposed as a man disguised as a woman, and her face was a little sorry.


    They had a tacit understanding and didn''t mention Merton''s rescue of Changle''s engagement. Although it was a semi public secret, it was related to the royal face after all. It''s better to regard it as never happened.


    Merton took the drawing returned by Princess Changle and said, "thank you for returning the drawing. I''m not very grateful."


    "It''s not too late for Lord Mo to thank you again after reading the drawing?" Princess Changle looked a little embarrassed.


    Merton was surprised and reached out to open the swimming pool effect drawing. He couldn''t help being a little stunned: "this is not the draft painted by Weichen."


    All the scenes were as like as two peas, but obviously some of the beautiful traces were not the original manuscript of Merton.


    "Merton, your painting has long been changed by sister Huang!" Li Zhi looked at Merton contemptuously, as if he had no sense of repentance as a thief, a pair of contemptuous eyes.


    Princess Changle smiled and said, "Lord Mo''s new painting skills are famous in Chang''an. The little woman can''t help but want to collect one. Lord Mo won''t be stingy!"


    Merton looked at the copy painting in his hand and couldn''t help but marvel at the painting skills of Princess Changle. He almost restored his effect drawing intact. At present, he sighed: "the princess has excellent painting skills. It''s an honor for Weichen to see Weichen''s painting."


    "Can Lord Mo do it to the end and sign the picture!" Princess Changle smiled cunningly and took out the original of the swimming pool effect drawing and a goose feather pen from behind a palace maid.


    Merton knew that he was in the routine. With a bitter smile, Princess Changle was ready. Even Merton could think about such details as writing with a goose feather pen.


    He had to accept his life, pick up the quill pen, bow down and sign his name on the quill pen.


    Princess Changle picked up the painting like a treasure and couldn''t help smiling at the lifelike swimming pool picture.


    "What makes our princess Changle so happy?" Li Chengqian came with little Lori and Princess Jinyang in a loud voice.


    "Sister Huang!"


    Princess Jinyang immediately ran to Princess Changle''s side, with an intimate appearance.


    "Brother Prince, elder sister Huang, she bullied me!" Li Zhi also found the Savior, grabbed Li Chengqian''s clothes, poured beans out of the bamboo tube and poured out the actions of Princess Changle.


    "Brother nine and Merton are so stupid?" Princess Jinyang said with a smile, laughing proudly at Lizhi and Merton.


    Li Chengqian was also overjoyed and said, "brother Mo, forgive me. She Mei is naughty."


    "You''re welcome, Prince. It''s just a picture. It''s worthless." Merton waved and said.


    "Lord Mo is too modest! If it is revealed in this painting, even Qianjin will be bought?" Princess Changle said in front of her brothers and sisters, restoring her maiden nature and jumping.


    Merton is the pioneer of the new painting technique, which is well-known in the painting circle of Chang''an city. In addition to the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, there are only one picture of Gongsun girl. Especially Merton draws the appearance of the murderer only according to the dictation of witnesses. The new painting technique has long been regarded as a divine skill, and Merton''s painting is worth thousands of gold, which is not false at all.


    Li Zhi''s face suddenly drooped. He had stolen it, but Changle took it away.


    "Oh! I didn''t think my paintings were so valuable. If I painted seven or eight pairs a day, it would be a lot of money every day. Where should I worry about Mojia village?" Merton joked.


    Princess Changle smiled.


    "Brother Mo''s painting skills are amazing and valuable. It''s just one of them. The greater value of this painting is in the swimming pool in the painting. This is the first swimming pool painting in the world. It''s of great natural value. You should put it away, Huangmei?" Li Chengqian smiled.


    "Don''t worry, Prince and brother!" Princess Changle said with a smile.


    "I''ve heard Qin Huaiyu show off this swimming pool. It''s the ultimate enjoyment." Li Chengqian sighed with emotion after looking at the busy scene and Merton''s swimming pool renderings.


    Since ancient times, the ancient way of summer vacation has been monotonous. Emperors can go to the summer resort if they have conditions. Dignitaries and dignitaries can just get a water room Pavilion. Ordinary people just go down the river to take a bath. But there''s a trick here in Merton.


    Swimming pools, T-shirts and ice making are unheard of and unthinkable.


    "It''s hot, you great craftsmen have worked hard, and someone will give you ice!" Li Chengqian remembered his purpose, and immediately several eunuchs carried a bucket of broken ice to the craftsmen who would be the prison.


    With the method of making ice with saltpeter, the ice in the imperial palace will become rich. If in previous years, the royal family is not enough, where do you worry about ordinary craftsmen.


    "Thank you, your highness!" the craftsmen were overjoyed.


    Saltpeter ice making has not spread yet. Ice is still a rare thing in this era. Courtiers always enjoy the treatment of giving ice. Ordinary craftsmen have tasted the taste of ice in summer.


    The cold ice melted in the mouth, and the cool liquid slipped into the stomach from the throat. Suddenly, one by one, the heat disappeared, and the craftsmen immediately enjoyed the most expression.


    "Brother Mo, please too!" Li Chengqian asked.


    Merton''s treatment is certainly better than that of ordinary craftsmen. The ice given is packed on a plate, and there are more than ten pieces.


    "How do you eat this?"


    Merton looked at the bare and transparent ice on the plate in surprise. At least a piece of wood should be made into a popsicle or something!


    "It''s delicious." Li Zhi was greedy. He reached out and took an ice cube and ate it with a look of enjoyment


    "You eat like this?" Merton looked at Li Zhi, who had a good time, and couldn''t help drawing a corner of his mouth.


    "Otherwise?" Li Chengqian said in surprise. Even Princess Changle looked puzzled. Isn''t it always like this when eating ice?


    Then they suddenly realized that Merton in front of them was the one who created such delicious food as fried vegetables and cakes. They couldn''t help but lag. Is there any other way to eat ice they don''t know.


    Thinking of this, I looked around and looked at the ice in front of me. Suddenly, I felt as ignorant as the craftsman who tasted ice for the first time in summer.

 Chapter 220

    Imperial dining room.


    "See you, your highness!" the imperial chefs greeted Li Chengqian and others.


    Li Chengqian waved his big hand and said, "no gift!"


    The imperial chefs then got up. A tall and thin imperial chef, who was the head of the imperial chefs, got up and said, "Your Highness are all noble people. How can you come to such a low place as the imperial dining room? Send someone to tell you what you need, and the small one will be ready for your highness naturally."


    "Food, clothing, housing and transportation are five essential things in life. Eating is the first place. How can the place where you cook be considered a low place?" Merton retorted.


    The thin and tall imperial chef was stunned when he heard the speech. He couldn''t help looking at Merton in surprise. Chef is a relatively low profession in all industries. Even the imperial chef''s status is not much higher. He couldn''t help feeling good when he heard Merton''s compliment to the cook.


    "A gentleman is far away from the kitchen! Your highness and others are golden men. If we stay in the imperial dining room, we will be punished by our superiors." the thin and tall imperial chef said in fear.


    Li Shimin was immediately embarrassed, especially his position. I''m afraid if it came out that he was in the imperial dining room, it would be another burst of advice.


    "A gentleman is far away from the kitchen. It doesn''t mean whether a gentleman should come to the kitchen, but that gentlemen have compassion. They can''t bear to see livestock killed. Food is the most important thing for the people. If everyone thinks he is a gentleman, who will cook in the world? Don''t those who think he is a gentleman die of hunger?" Merton said sarcastically.


    "This...?" the thin and tall imperial Chef immediately concluded.


    Li Chengqian''s eyes brightened, and his hesitant steps were firm.


    "But don''t worry, the imperial chef. We''re not here to see you kill, but to make a brand-new food with only ice?" Merton said.


    "Making delicious food with ice?" the imperial kitchen door looked at Merton with the eyes of fools.


    "Zhou Yuchu, this is Lord mohou who invented cake and fried vegetables. He is best at cooking!" Li Chengqian smiled and introduced the thin and tall Royal chef.


    "Lord Mo?"


    The thin and tall chef Zhou Yu''s eyes lit up and his eyes were bright.


    Other imperial chefs can''t help but look sideways. If other most famous chefs want three points on the ground in front of the imperial chefs, but Merton, who invented cooking and cake, is different.


    When the cooking and cake first appeared in the imperial kitchen, the delicious taste immediately conquered all the imperial chefs, and Mohist Zi also left a legendary legend in the imperial chefs.


    However, in front of them, the mojiazi has to make a new delicious food. The imperial chefs are not very excited. As chefs, what attracts them most is the recipe of delicious food.


    "So it''s Lord Mo? Villains really have eyes and don''t understand Mount Tai?" Chef Zhou quickly arched his hands. If others make food with ice, the chefs designated to scoff, but if Merton, the people were immediately convinced.


    Even Li Chengqian and others were like this. As soon as Merton wanted to cook a delicious food, he immediately followed him to the imperial dining room.


    Merton waved and said, "I hope you can help."


    Only Merton himself understood that he was just a theorist. He had to rely on these imperial chefs to really do it.


    "That''s certainly what you want." Zhou Yuchu was inspired. Since Merton wanted to let them start, he gave them a chance to learn. How can he not make them ecstatic.


    "Stab, stab!"


    Without Merton''s hands, an imperial chef automatically helped. According to Merton''s requirements, a large piece of ice was planed into a large pile of ice flowers and put them in a copper basin. The lower part of the copper basin continued to be frozen with ice to prevent the ice flowers from melting.


    "Is there any milk?" asked Merton.


    "There is no milk. Is deer milk OK, but these deer milk are for princes and princesses." Zhou Yuchu asked.


    The Imperial Palace supports female deer all the year round to milk the royal family. If the Royal dining room runs out of deer milk, it will be punished if there is a shortage of supply for the princes.


    "Take my share out and use it! It''s not good at all!" Li Zhi said with his mouth tilted. He hates drinking deer milk most. He usually empties it secretly. Now he just uses it openly.


    Merton suddenly smiled. In this era, dairy products are definitely not delicious without fermentation treatment, but there are many benefits. As long as there is no hidden danger of calcium deficiency, this is hundreds of times better than ordinary people.


    "And mine." Princess Jinyang also raised her hand. She liked deer milk, but she also contributed to delicious food, because Merton promised that it was comparable to the delicious food of cake.


    "Get more deer milk and say it''s used in the palace!" said Li Chengqian.


    The prince''s words worked naturally. Soon a bucket of fresh deer milk was brought up. In this era, there was no insurance measures. It was usually squeezed and drunk now.


    "Boil it and stir it vigorously?" Merton ordered.


    Zhou Yuchu nodded, and immediately a Yuchu took over the work and was busy.


    Then, honey and all kinds of fresh fruits were brought up one by one and put into ice for cold storage.


    "Watermelon?" Merton was surprised to see a rare thing.


    "Brother Mo, this is a Cucumis, which is spread from the western regions. It''s also appropriate to call it watermelon." Li Chengqian explained.


    Watermelon in this era is nothing but a slap in the face. There is no variety weighing more than ten kilograms in future generations. Fortunately, it is better than nothing. It is also a good ingredient.


    Soon, the deer milk had been boiled and stirred. Merton carefully skimmed the cream out of the upper layer, put it into a copper basin and add honey. Put the preserved fruit in it, put the copper basin into the ice making pool of the imperial dining room, and sprinkle saltpeter to accelerate freezing.


    After all this, Merton suddenly realized that there was one thing missing. Merton suddenly asked. "The imperial chef is good at pasta?"


    "Villains are the best?" Zhou Yuchu said shyly.


    Merton smiled and bowed his head to order a few words in front of Zhou Yuchu, who nodded again and again.


    After a while, conical crispy cones appeared in front of everyone. Eating ice cream is the most important thing.


    Li Zhi reached for one and took a bite. A sweet smell melted at the entrance. He immediately shouted that it was delicious!


    "I want it too?" said Princess Jinyang.


    "Your Highness, this food is not like this." Merton smiled and looked at the frozen preserved cream in the copper basin. He picked up the sugar cone and put the frozen cream into it. Suddenly, a simple ice cream was made and handed it to Princess Jinyang.


    Princess Jinyang took it and took a delicious bite. It was cold, sweet and smooth. Coupled with the crispy and fragrant crispy sweet tube, all kinds of delicacies are mixed together, which can be described as the ultimate enjoyment in this hot summer.


    "Delicious?" Princess Jinyang''s eyes narrowed into a seam. Greedy Li Zhigan was worried.


    Merton did the same and made one for Li Zhi, which sent him away.


    "Ice is a very cold thing. If you eat more, I''m afraid it will damage your intestines and stomach. Your highness can''t eat too much each time." Merton told you, but you just immerse yourself in delicious food and don''t know if you listen to it.


    For Princess Changle and Li Chengqian, Merton changed his approach. Instead, he put the prepared ice cream on a plate and put all kinds of frozen fresh fruits and preserved fruits on it.


    "Delicacy and beauty coexist!" Princess Changle looked at the ice cream feast in front of her, and she couldn''t bear to eat.

 Chapter 221

    "The world is delicious!"


    Princess Changle raised her spoon and took an elegant bite. She immediately got out of control and deeply loved this delicious food.


    Ice cream is one of the favorite foods for children and women in later generations. Of course, it is no exception in the era of the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Chengqian also tasted one, and could not help but sigh deeply. The cool and delicious food is indeed the best weapon for summing up summer heat. No wonder Merton looked at himself with that look. The history of ice in the palace has been long-standing in winter, and it has been eating ice directly, compared with the ice cream in front of him, which is woodlouse.


    "Ice cream!"


    The two tasted the delicious food and thought that Merton would give the food a name. They couldn''t help nodding. The good name was like delicious.


    Of course, Merton didn''t forget to give himself one. After tasting it, the familiar feeling immediately came to his heart. Although it is slightly inferior to the ice cream of later generations, it is a surprise to eat such delicious food.


    "I want to eat!"


    Li Zhi is the most greedy. He has already finished the sweet cone in his hand. He looks at Li Chengqian eagerly.


    When Chengqian thought of Merton''s warning, he couldn''t help looking at Merton. Merton thought about it and nodded: "another one at most. I''m afraid his stomach can''t bear any more."


    Li Chengqian nodded slightly and said, "give nine younger brothers a small share!"


    Zhou Yuchu immediately gave Li Zhi another ice cream according to Merton''s method, but the weight was halved. Rao was so, which still made Li Zhi smile.


    Princess Changle reluctantly ate her ice cream and sighed: "Lord Mo is worthy of being the God of wealth of Chang''an city. With this ability to turn stone into gold, how can Mohism not be rich."


    The news that Mojia village pays taxes directly has naturally spread all over the palace, and Princess Changle has naturally heard of it. It is only today that she is convinced by Merton''s ability to turn stone into gold.


    Ice, honey and fruit are common in the imperial palace. Who would have thought that they could become such delicious food in the hands of mojiazi.


    "I want to give consideration to the food and clothing of 5000 people. I can only be covered with copper. I also envy your Highness''s life without worrying about money and food." Merton said with envy on his face.


    "Do you think the princes and princesses don''t worry about money? They usually spend money in their own palace and give rewards to their servants. Each palace has so much salary every month. How can they spend enough?" Princess Changle said with a bitter smile.


    In fact, Princess Changle can''t say something. It''s usually good. Especially when she meets the elders in the Imperial Palace, who doesn''t need to prepare birthday gifts? Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, father, mother, and many imperial concubines need to save their expenses in the palace every time to prepare decent birthday gifts. Who doesn''t want to prepare generous gifts and honor their parents and elders.


    Li Chengqian is also embarrassed. As a prince, he usually needs more money, but he has no other income. Coupled with his prominent status, people stare at him all the time. If he is not short of money, no one believes it.


    Of course, Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang don''t have such worries at present. As long as they offer a word and copy a filial piety Sutra, it''s enough. They don''t pay much and get a lot of rewards.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Merton couldn''t help but be shocked. He didn''t expect that as a prince, the princess would be embarrassed. Of course, this is only relative.


    Suddenly Merton had an idea, pointed to the ice cream in his hand and said, "Your Highness, do you think the ice cream is delicious?"


    Princess Changle was surprised and said, "that''s nature, not just delicious. This is the best thing to relieve summer heat in summer."


    Li Chengqian nodded in agreement. I''m afraid from now on, ice cream will be called the most popular food in the palace in summer. As for the insipid ice, no one will eat it anymore.


    "If this ice cream is sold in Chang''an City, will it be popular?" Merton continued.


    Princess Changle nodded and said, "it''s natural. This delicious food will be as popular in Chang''an City as a cake."


    Merton pointed out: "ice cream is a delicacy offered by Weichen to his four Highnesses. Naturally, this formula belongs to his four Highnesses."


    "You mean to let us use this to open a shop in Chang''an city to make money?" Princess Changle said with exquisite mind.


    "Yes! Princess, you can imagine that once this ice cream appears in Chang''an City, it will naturally be all the rage, and your highness will not have to worry about spending it in the palace any more.


    Princess Changle''s eyes lit up when she heard the speech. She was no longer a little girl who had been in the deep palace for a long time. After several months of experience in medical school, she had already seen the outside world and naturally knew the importance of money.


    "No, as a royal family, how can we compete for profits with the people!" Li Chengqian suddenly shook his head.


    Princess Changle''s face suddenly darkened. The royal family enjoyed the worship of all the people. Naturally, she also had to abide by the rules. I''m afraid competing for profits with the people would attract the opposition of the Manchu Dynasty. At that time, she could not get rid of her relationship as a princess.


    "Competing for profits with the people?" Merton asked, "do people have ice cream? Competing for profits with who!"


    Li Chengqian immediately concluded that the saltpeter ice making was initiated by Merton, and so was the ice cream. This is something that the people have never had, and no one has made a profit from it. How can we compete for profits with the people.


    Princess Changle suddenly became cheerful and jumped with joy. In this way, the biggest obstacle has been eliminated. As for whether the princess can do business, it is not an obstacle. It is enough to find someone to take charge. As far as Changle knows, many of her aunts have their own industries and do so.


    "Li Zhi and I won''t be involved in this matter. Let''s leave it to you and Jinyang!" Li Chengqian said to Princess Changle. The system of the Tang Dynasty is more tolerant to the princess, but it is very strict to the prince. In this way, Li Chengqian knows that he can''t touch it, and his position as a prince is more sensitive, so it''s better to avoid suspicion.


    "Thank you, brother!" Changle was moved.


    For this sister, Li Chengqian really loves her. Otherwise, she would not risk offending Li Shimin to expose the harm of next of kin marriage for the happiness of Princess Changle.


    Among the two princesses, Princess Jinyang is relatively young and ignorant. Naturally, Princess Changle is the main princess. Moreover, Li Shimin owes something to Changle because of her close relatives before. It will not hurt if this matter is exposed in the future.


    This kind of thing can only be done first and then. If it is exposed in advance, it will not work. Li Zhi and Jinyang can''t bear the secret when they are young. Changle also turned his eyes and thought of a way to support them away.


    "It''s very delicious and relieves the summer heat. If we give them to our father, emperor and mother, have a taste!"


    "Good!" Li Zhi and Jinyang immediately responded.


    If a child has anything good, he can''t wait to offer treasure to his parents. Naturally, they are no exception.


    Soon, the imperial chefs have prepared two ice creams. Li Zhi is responsible for giving them to empress Chang sun and Jinyang is responsible for giving them to Li Shimin. After the division of labor is completed, they happily lead the eunuch to leave.


    After Li Zhi and Jinyang left, Merton continued to discuss various matters of ice cream. Of course, Li Chengqian would give his full support to his sister''s first career. Merton put forward all kinds of ice products in future generations one by one. Their eyes became brighter and brighter and shouted that there was great potential for them.

 Chapter 222

    Tai Chi hall.


    Li Shimin is handling official business. As an emperor, his daily workload is extremely large. Fortunately, a large number of ice basins emit cold air, and the temperature of Taiji hall is very suitable.


    "Father!" Princess Jinyang jumped in. As Li Shimin''s favorite daughter, Princess Jinyang had the privilege of entering the store without notice.


    "It''s so hot, why did Yuzi come?" Li Shimin immediately picked up Princess Jinyang with a distressed face.


    "Don''t worry, my father, my son is not hot?" said the princess of Jinyang.


    Li Shimin found that although Princess Jinyang came to meet the fierce day ago, she didn''t have any sweat at all. She couldn''t help but secretly call it strange.


    "Let''s eat a piece of ice first to relieve the heat, so as to avoid heatstroke!" Li Shimin still said uneasily, and ordered pound to take an ice to relieve the heat of Princess Jinyang. Princess Jinyang was weak and could not bear the heat. There was a precedent of heatstroke.


    Princess Jinyang shook her head wisely and said, "father, my son has already eaten ice cream. If you eat ice again, you will have a stomachache."


    "Ice cream?" Li Shimin frowned at the strange name he had never heard of.


    "It''s this kind of thing. It''s much better than ice?" the princess of Jinyang stretched out her hand and immediately a food eunuch brought the ice cream placed in the ice basin.


    Looking at the unique ice cream on the plate, Li Shimin frowned and said, "this is made by the boy Merton?"


    Jinyang princess suddenly surprised to grow up and said, "father, how do you know?"


    "If so, who else can make these strange things except that boy." Li Shimin was disgusted in his heart, but his face was a stick face: "my father will have a clever plan."


    Li Shimin was comforted by a wave of admiration for Princess Jinyang.


    "Father, eat quickly! It''s delicious. At this time, Yuzi specially reserved it for you." Jinyang Princess couldn''t wait to say.


    "Good!" Li Shimin said with a smile. Since it was brought by Princess Jinyang and followed by the eunuch, it naturally came from the imperial dining room. There is no problem with safety.


    The sweet and cold delicious entrance immediately brightened Li Shimin''s eyes and ate the full plate of ice cream in one breath. In this hot summer, he was very comfortable.


    "Come on, the imperial dining room will prepare more ice cream and give it to the concubines, princes and princesses." Li Shimin was soon conquered by such sharp tools to relieve the summer heat.


    When a delicious ice cream swept the harem, the name of mojiazi spread all over the harem again. The last time the same scene was when Princess Jinyang brought back the secret recipe of cake.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    By the Taiye pool,


    Unaware of his popularity in the Imperial Palace, Merton came back refreshed. Although he neglected his duty and went to the imperial dining room to open a small stove for himself, the craftsman who will be the supervisor has been working diligently.


    According to Merton''s drawing plan, coupled with the mechanical help of the Mohists, the main project of the swimming pool has been completed, that is, excavation.


    "Lord Mo, all the works have been completed. Please accept them." the middle-aged master reported.


    Merton nodded, picked up the ink ruler and measured it one by one. He was not bad at all. He couldn''t help but look at the middle-aged master with admiration. He had the impulse to dig him into the Mohist school. Unfortunately, the size of the other party was also a master who would be the supervisor. Naturally, it was impossible to give up this hard won position.


    "The floor tiles must be white marble, which can be inlaid between bricks, and the sand must be screened, not too fine or too thick." Merton ordered one by one.


    "Yes!"


    The middle-aged master immediately nodded yes and recorded it one by one.


    These things are difficult for ordinary people, but they are not a big problem for the royal family.


    Under the huge human and material resources to be the supervisor, everything is prepared in an orderly manner.


    But Merton did nothing all day and mixed food and drink in the shade of the tree. These days, under Merton''s guidance, chef Zhou Yuchu''s ice cream making skills have increased sharply. In addition, there are all kinds of food materials in the palace. They have one idea and one good skill, which can be described as a variety of tricks.


    "Lord mohou, please taste it. Is this yogurt still delicious?" Zhou Yuchu directly incarnated as his younger brother and handed a cup of yogurt to Merton.


    "Yogurt?" Merton''s eyes lit up. He just mentioned it casually a few days ago. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuchu made it.


    Looking at the jelly like milk in this cup, Merton immediately became a treasure. He tasted it carefully. It was sour and sweet. It was really authentic yogurt.


    "Zhou Yuchu''s craftsmanship is unparalleled in the world?" Merton praised.


    "Lord Mo flattered me. It''s all due to Lord Mo''s guidance. I dare not take credit!" Zhou Yuchu said with a smile.


    "Merton, is it good? Let me try it too?" the princess Jinyang begged.


    In recent days, Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi have become little attendants of Merton. Whenever Merton and Zhou Yuchu create an ice cream, they are the first tasters. Especially Li Zhi, under the banner of letting Professor Merton learn mathematics, directly moved his small desk over.


    Merton motioned Zhou Yuchu to give Princess Jinyang a cup. The sour and sweet taste immediately conquered Princess Jinyang.


    "I don''t want deer milk anymore, so I''ll drink yogurt?" Princess Jinyang rebelled against her taste after only one taste.


    "Yuzi, is it good to drink?" Li Zhi asked curiously. He didn''t like deer milk, but he couldn''t help itching when he saw that Merton and Jinyang said it was good to drink.


    "Hmm!" Princess Jinyang nodded heavily.


    "Merton, give me a drink too!" Li Zhi said impatiently.


    Merton looked at Li Zhixie and said with a smile, "there is a pool that can hold 300 cylinders of water. At each moment, someone poured two cylinders of water, and someone picked up one cylinder of water. When will this tank be full of water, when will you finish it, and when will you eat yogurt?"


    "Ah!" Li Zhi immediately wailed. He hated this kind of pool question on which Merton became famous.


    "If you can''t finish it, you''ll have to wait for the water in the swimming pool to fill up before eating." Merton regretfully pointed to the swimming pool road in front of the water truck. Unknowingly, the swimming pool has reached the end stage.


    Li Zhi looked at the Jinyang princess who had enjoyed herself. As soon as she bit her teeth, she began to calculate hard.


    "Three hundred quarter!"


    Stimulated by delicious food, Li Zhi worked out the answer in less than a quarter of an hour.


    Watching Lizhi eating yogurt, Merton had to lament the strength of the food.


    At this time, the middle-aged master came to report: "Lord mohou, the water injection of the swimming pool has been completed."


    Merton stands up and the water injection is completed, which means that the swimming pool has been built and his task is about to be completed.

 Chapter 223

    "The pool is built?"


    Li Shimin, who is tasting yogurt, can''t help but say in amazement that he has had a lot of fun these days. Merton has played tricks with the ice and launched all kinds of ice cream in combination with the fancy style of the imperial dining room.


    Rao Shimin has tasted delicious food all over the world, but he can''t help but linger and forget to return. In particular, today''s delicious yogurt has good flavor, both delicious and appetizing.


    Li Shimin and his concubines in the harem are the same. Last night, Li Shimin stayed with Wei Guifei. Wei Guifei lamented the delicious ice cream while lamenting that she seemed to be fat.


    Not to mention those greedy princes and princesses, it is estimated that the deer milk will not be made into yogurt in the future. I''m afraid few people are willing to drink it again.


    "Tell your majesty that Lord Mo is waiting for your Majesty''s acceptance in the Taiye pool." pound bowed.


    "OK, go and have a look!" Li Shimin couldn''t help feeling excited. He thought about the swimming pool renderings presented by Merton, but he couldn''t wait.


    Now Li Shimin drives Taiye pool! When I first arrived at Taiye pool, I happened to meet many concubines in the harem who were playing in Taiye pool.


    It''s really hard for these concubines to play in the Taiye pool in such hot weather. The news that the pool is about to be built can''t hide from the people in the harem. The concubines of the harem naturally think that Li Shimin will come here. The Queen''s body can''t stand such hot weather. Naturally, it''s their turn to compete for wind and beauty.


    "Emperor." a crowd of warblers immediately rushed to Li Shimin''s side. The concubines of the imperial palace were naturally first-class and gorgeous, and the side of the Taiye pool was suddenly bright.


    Looking at Li Shimin, Merton couldn''t help but smack his tongue. He didn''t come. There were more than 20 people alone. With a group of palace maids not far away, he was like a daughter''s country.


    According to legend, there are 3000 beauties in the harem. Although this number is exaggerated, Merton believes that the 72 imperial concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards must be filled at least. It is really kidney deficiency that limits Merton''s imagination. I don''t know that Li Shimin has settled such a huge harem.


    What makes Merton even more amazing is that there is a high-ranking imperial concubine in Li Shimin''s harem who can be called a Supermodel of later generations. According to Merton''s visual measurement, her height is more than 1.9 meters and her appearance is extremely beautiful. Merton can''t help admiring Li Shimin''s advanced aesthetics. He even likes this supermodel figure with foresight. Li Shimin has Xianbei blood and is tall. Rao is so, but he is half higher than Li Shimin.


    "Imperial concubine Wei?" Merton suddenly remembered a legendary woman who was only verified by later generations. It is said that imperial concubine Wei was born in Jingzhao Webster and married Li Min, the son of Li Zixiong, a general of the Sui Dynasty


    Later, Li Min''s father and son rebelled with Yang Xuangan, and imperial concubine Wei sat down and demoted to the palace. After Li Tang was established, he entered the prince Qin''s house as a second marriage. Of course, it is possible to marry, but it can also prove the superiority of imperial concubine Wei.


    Later, she was named Wei Guifei and the tenth son of Li Shimin. King Ji Li Shen once fell into the clouds and mud, and then enjoyed honor. She is a strange woman from generation to generation.


    "See the emperor?"


    Merton didn''t dare to look at it too much. Seeing that Li Shimin had settled the harem, he only came with imperial concubine Wei, who was the leader, and bowed down quickly.


    "Get up!"


    Li Shimin reluctantly glanced at Merton and couldn''t help wondering if Merton was really a catfish reincarnation. He didn''t stop wherever he went. He just asked him to build a swimming pool and tossed out a series of delicious food.


    "This is the Mexican family of ice cream. It''s really young and beautiful!" Princess Wei GUI turned her charming eyes and looked at Merton curiously. Anyone who saw that Merton, a 15-year-old boy, could do such an earth shaking event would be very curious.


    "Concubine AI is really smart. This person is the culprit for her weight gain." Li Shimin laughed.


    "The emperor has come to make fun of my concubine again?" imperial concubine Wei was tall, but her voice was very charming and did not violate the peace at all.


    "As long as I can eat such delicious food, my concubine is willing to be fat! My concubine is also worried that Lord Mo will never eat delicious food after he repaired the swimming pool!"


    Merton immediately lowered his head. He didn''t dare to discuss the figure of the imperial concubine.


    "Since the boy likes cooking food so much, how about letting him stay in the imperial dining room and make food for the imperial concubine?" Li Shimin looked at Merton and said deliberately.


    "Ah!"


    Merton was dumbfounded!


    "Lord Mo is in charge of the family and shoulders the revival of Mohism. If the ministers and concubines let him stay in the imperial dining room, they will not be scolded by the history books." Princess Wei looked frightened.


    "The imperial concubine is joking! There are many talented people in the imperial dining room. The boy can only fool around. All the recipes are available in the imperial dining room. Surely there will be no lack of the delicious food of the imperial concubine." Merton waved his hand again and again.


    "What a slippery little catfish! I just don''t know if your swimming pool is as good as delicious food!" Princess Wei smiled and let Merton go.


    "Surely I won''t let your majesty and the imperial concubine down!" Merton quickly changed the topic and stretched out his hand to lead Li Shimin to the side hall of Taiye pool.


    In front of the side hall, a Zhang high colored silk surrounded the swimming pool in front of the hall, and I couldn''t see the scene inside.


    "Oh! It''s quite mysterious." Li Shimin''s interest came up.


    "Your Majesty, this is the tailoring and the ceremony to celebrate the completion of the swimming pool." Merton respectfully handed a long ribbon decorated with colored balls to Li Shimin and Princess Wei. Pound, who was already prepared, immediately handed over a pair of scissors.


    The word ribbon cutting has existed since the northern and Southern Dynasties, but Merton has played a new trick! In order to increase the shock that Li Shimin first saw the swimming pool, he moved out all kinds of means of his later generations.


    Li Shimin felt very fresh and excited. According to pound''s tips, he cut one ribbon into two.


    With the ribbon landing, the colorful silk around the swimming pool came to an end at the same time. Suddenly, a pool of blue water set off the white marble shore and matched with the golden artificial beach, it was beautiful.


    "This is a fairyland on earth?" Princess Wei said with an obsessed face.


    Although there are many beautiful scenery in the Imperial Palace, I''m tired of seeing the most beautiful scenery every day! At first glance, it''s amazing to see a swimming pool imitating the sea.


    The sea is boundless, majestic and vast, but the sea is ruthless and full of mystery. People mention the sea with respect and fear. Traveling in the sea can be said to be something that ordinary people dare not think of. Although the ancients did not see the sea due to distance, it was not that they had no imagination of the sea. Otherwise, where did those fairy tales come from.


    But Merton was able to create the feeling of the sea in the imperial palace. It was really amazing. Merton looked at Li Shimin''s shocked mouth and couldn''t help feeling secretly proud. His efforts were not in vain.

 Chapter 224

    "Is this water sea water?" Li Shimin reached out and touched the water in the pool. In his understanding, only sea water is blue.


    "Your Majesty, the sea is also colorless and transparent, but it is boundless and unfathomable. Only when it reflects the blue sky can we see the blue ocean," Merton explained.


    "This water is the water from Taiye pool, but it is only added with gall alum. In order to remove algae and prevent the water quality from deteriorating, your majesty can rest assured that the imperial doctor has tested it and there is no harm to the human body!"


    Merton certainly wouldn''t say that apart from algae, the biggest role of adding alum is to make the pool slightly blue and beautify the water quality. Otherwise, there are many chemicals in future generations. Why do you choose alum.


    Li Shimin nodded. Naturally, some people in the palace would sit through the security inspection procedure, otherwise there would be no scene of acceptance today.


    "This is the children''s area. The water depth is no more than three feet. There''s no need to worry about the danger of your princes." Merton, half a step behind, introduced Li Shimin and Wei Guifei by pointing to a shallow auxiliary pool with a clear bottom.


    The swimming pool is a place for the whole family to rest, of course. It is more about playing with children. If only one adult is allowed to swim here, it will soon become boring.


    "This is the adult area, which is divided into shallow water rest area, deep water area, diving platform, swimming pool and track."


    The difference between shallow water area and deep water area brightened Li Shimin''s eyes, but he didn''t care. What really interested him was the platform jumping and the track.


    "Platform jumping is very interesting?" Li Shimin smiled.


    "When Wei Chen was a child, his favorite thing in summer was to jump into the water again and again, and the idea involved this diving platform." Merton explained that if the swimming pool was just swimming, it would be boring. Adding diving would certainly be ten times more interesting.


    "My concubine will be very curious about the swimming pool track?" Wei Guifei said curiously. There is no swimming competition in this era.


    "The pool track is to race who swims fast and enhance interest," Merton explained. A simple bath may not be very meaningful,


    "Why?" Princess Wei said with a smile.


    Merton explained: "Weichen believes that swimming is the best way to exercise. People consume energy very much in the water, do not hurt their body, and play a role in slimming and beautifying their appearance."


    You don''t see those sports in later generations. Which of the other events is not full of injuries and injuries, only swimming. I rarely hear of injuries and injuries, and they are all good in shape and temperament, which shows the benefits of swimming.


    Which one of the prince''s sons and grandchildren is not expensive? Building other sports venues must be thankless. Only the swimming pool is the most suitable.


    As for the problem of drowning, which Prince is not full of people behind him doesn''t need to be considered at all.


    "Is fifty steps too short? I can swim to the end in one breath!" Li Shimin shook his head at the 50 step swimming lane, but Merton''s swimming pool track can be divided into five tracks, which can accommodate five people.


    "Your Majesty, fifty steps is not short. If you swim to 50 meters, you can continue to swim backwards. If you go back and forth several times, you will open the gap and distinguish the victory and defeat." Merton said with a bitter smile. Can you compare it in the swimming pool with that in the natural pond!


    Li Shimin nodded regretfully and accepted Merton''s compromise proposal. The place is limited. It''s good to be able to do this step.


    "Your Majesty, please try the man-made beach created by Weichen for you!" Merton pointed to the north side of the pool. The north side is the most sunny, which is the best site for the man-made beach.


    Looking sideways, the north side of the swimming pool is covered with golden sand. In the middle of the beach, five big wooden umbrellas are opened, leaving a large shady place. Two beach chairs are placed under each umbrella for people to rest.


    The man-made beach is Merton''s biggest regret for building a swimming pool in Merton house. Now it has finally made up for it by borrowing the power of the royal family.


    "Is this river sand?" Li Shimin bent his head and grabbed a handful of sand. He couldn''t buy it.


    Merton nodded. It is this man-made beach that is the finishing touch of the swimming pool. Sunshine, beach and sea water form a unique charm.


    After all, there are several people who have been to the sea. The swimming pool and beach in front of us can completely replace the reverie of the sea. At least Princess Wei has been deeply infatuated with it.


    "I don''t know how your brain grows. It''s easy for others to do things that are difficult and difficult in your hands!" Li Shimin sighed as he lay on the beach chair and looked at the blue pool water in front of him.


    Li Shimin, who was eagerly served by Wei Guifei, ate the latest masterpiece of Zhou Yuchu - yogurt ice cream.


    "This is the boy''s reverie about the sea. The boy has never been to the sea, but he yearns for it. He has to build one according to his own imagination!" Merton found a specious reason.


    "Others just think about what they think, but Lord Mo turns his ideas into reality. I''m afraid this is the uniqueness of Mohism!" sighed Princess Wei.


    Li Shimin also nodded slightly. Mohism really gave him too many surprises.


    "Your Majesty, my concubine also wants to build a swimming pool in the bedroom!" Princess Wei was obviously conquered by this beautiful scenery. The swimming pool in front of her was close to the Taiye pool. It was obviously built for Li Shimin and the princes. How can the concubines and the princes share the same pool.


    When Merton built it, he also considered building two swimming pools at the same time, one male and one female. However, even if the middle is separated by a wall, the hip-hop sound can be heard clearly. It is also a big taboo and can not coexist, so he simply went all out to build the swimming pool to the most perfect beauty.


    Li Shimin immediately turned his eyes to Merton. Merton quickly shook his head and said, "Weichen should not enter the harem, but the specific drawings have been handed over to the general supervisor. I believe it is not difficult to copy this swimming pool according to the people in the palace."


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "let pound do it!"


    "Yes!" said pound.


    At this point, Merton''s mission has been completed and leaves the palace immediately.


    Out of the rosefinch gate, Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Merton''s three bombs for summer vacation, swimming pool and ice making have been introduced into the palace, but there is no sense of caring for Merton to recommend to Li Shimin.


    After all, in the swimming pool, saltpeter can only be enjoyed by rich people. It is natural that it is introduced into the palace, and T-shirt is the clothing of civilians. It is high-quality and cheap. It is naturally attractive to ordinary people, and it is God''s help. I believe that in this hot weather, Chang''an City may have been popular for a time!


    The swimming pool and ice making method can only be spread from top to bottom because of the cost, and the T-shirt will also be spread from bottom to top because of the cost. When Chang''an city accepts such clothes, it will naturally be introduced into the palace.


    Merton believes that with the passage of time, everything he does will drop into the water like drops of ink, leaving an ink color that will never be clear.

 Chapter 225

    "Young master?"


    When he saw Merton coming out, tie settled down and met him.


    "Back to Mo mansion!" Merton couldn''t wait. The weather was muggy and it was killing people. Merton missed the summer resort he had built.


    "Drive!"


    Tiean drove the carriage in Chang''an city. Merton leaned his head against the window and felt the wind brought by the carriage, which was slightly cooler.


    Yu Guang swept away and suddenly found that many teenagers were walking down the street in Chang''an City wearing T-shirts. Merton couldn''t help laughing,


    "Young master, the T-shirt you made is cool and comfortable. Almost everyone in Mojia village has a set. It is now popular in Chang''an City, especially these young men, who are proud to wear ink clothes." tie an said proudly.


    If he hadn''t come to the palace for fear of disrespect, he would have changed into a T-shirt and didn''t have to wear such formal clothes to suffer.


    Merton is not surprised that everyone in Mojia village has a set. Now Mojia village has almost worshipped Merton. In addition, compared with traditional clothes, T-shirts are really cool and easy to work. Naturally, they are very popular.


    It is not surprising that teenagers who pursue novelty and are most receptive to new things will naturally spread among these people first.


    Merton walked all the way and found that T-shirts had quietly taken root in Chang''an city.


    Squeak! The carriage stopped at the door of Mo mansion.


    "Young master!"


    Fubo and Ziyi had already been waiting at the door.


    Merton got out of the car and looked. Sure enough, even Fubo changed into a T-shirt, but Fubo embroidered an ink word on the left chest of the T-shirt as a symbol of the ink house, which can be regarded as a precedent for the printing of T-shirts.


    "Young master!" Ziyi chuckled discontentedly and leaned over.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.


    "Why are you so eccentric? Why don''t you design a T-shirt like dress for our Mohist women." Ziyi said discontentedly.


    "Women wear skirts in summer. Don''t make trouble."


    Merton was suddenly covered with black lines and waved the crazy girl aside. It was natural to design men''s clothes and T-shirts. If you design women''s clothes, you might lose the reputation of a sex wolf.


    Ziyi immediately skimmed the corner of her mouth and went away unhappily. On second thought, it was a big deal to do it yourself. Immediately, she ran to Aunt Xu in high spirits.


    Where did Merton think of his casual words, he even stimulated a future master of women''s clothing design. Ziyi first followed Merton to learn new painting skills. With the help of aunt Xu, a needlework, and the inspiration of compassionate, naturally everything is logical.


    "What about the three?" Merton asked Fubo as soon as he entered the Mo house.


    "Three young princes are waiting for you in the backyard! Young master Fang is also there." Fubo replied.


    "Fang er?" Merton nodded. Fang Jun didn''t go to school in the Imperial College. Naturally, they didn''t have as much time to meet as Qin Huaiyu. They haven''t seen each other for many days.


    The backyard of Mo mansion.


    Merton heard the sound of four people splashing in the water from a distance and couldn''t help accelerating his pace.


    "Hahaha, brothers, I miss you so much!" Merton threw a tiger down from the sky and splashed in the swimming pool.


    "Ah, bah!"


    Someone must have choked.


    Merton swam the swimming pool to the head, and then it surfaced. Then he looked at the four people with a smile.


    "Merton, I don''t think you want to die us, but you want to die!" the four people surrounded fiercely.


    Merton hurriedly begged for mercy. In terms of strength, he could not defeat the four humanoid monsters.


    Five people played for a while. Then they were satisfied with the north side of the swimming pool, stepped on the soft sand and lay on the beach chair under the umbrella.


    When Merton built a swimming pool for the palace, he used public tools to seek his own interests and took the opportunity to make up for his own swimming pool''s regret.


    "Brother Mo, I have to say that your swimming pool is really unique. How about borrowing some Mohist children tomorrow to build one for our house?" Fang Jun said with envy on his face.


    "Why is it difficult? But most of the Mohist children are busy with the summer harvest. You can send the boy Mo Si with the drawings to work hard, and you need your own people." Merton said.


    "This is natural! There are still some houses with hands." Fang Jun patted his chest.


    "Don''t you three?" when Fang Jun was happy, he couldn''t help looking at Qin Huaiyu in surprise.


    When Qin Huaiyu and Fang Jun laughed, they knew that the three guys had been built long ago.


    "It was just built yesterday!" Chumo smiled proudly. Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded. When Merton was called into the palace to build a swimming pool, the swimming pools of the three governments were already being built simultaneously.


    It is conceivable that this kind of swimming pool will certainly become the standard configuration of dignitaries in the future, which is called the best way to relieve summer heat in summer. After all, if dignitaries go down the river to swim with ordinary people, wouldn''t they laugh off their big teeth.


    "Then you come here to eat and drink!" Fang Jun said angrily, as if he had taken advantage of his family.


    The three men suddenly turned dark and were not occupied by their bandit father.


    "Gentlemen, please have some ice to relieve the summer heat!"


    Fubo came over with a tray covered with a lid. Fang Jun was the closest. He got up and opened the lid. He saw five red popsicles neatly placed in the tray, vaguely smelling the aroma of fruit.


    Fang Jun asked in surprise, "what''s this?"


    "Popsicle!" Qin Huaiyu picked up a wooden stick and took a bite on it. The cold and sweet juice immediately slipped into his stomach and his whole body felt comfortable.


    "Delicious!" people praised it one after another.


    Merton picked up a popsicle and ate it, shaking his head. I''m used to the ice cream in the imperial palace. Now it''s a little boring to eat this popsicle.


    Mo Fu doesn''t have fresh milk. It makes a simple version of popsicle with fruit juice. It''s much better than eating ice directly, which is not satisfactory.


    If you eat ice cream made of cream, I don''t know if you will still find this popsicle delicious.


    According to Merton, Princess Changle, with the help of Li Chengqian, has almost made preparations for the preliminary work. She is collecting cows on a large scale. I believe she will be able to eat pure ice cream in Chang''an city soon.


    The heat spread, and the whole Guanzhong area was shrouded in steamers.


    Driven by the high temperature and displayed by Qin Huaiyu, the swimming pool is quietly becoming more and more popular in Chang''an city. Mo Si has almost become a guest of major dignitaries. At the busiest time, he almost guides ten companies to build swimming pools at the same time.


    Among the lower class, in the face of the cruel weather, the voice against T-shirt is getting smaller and smaller, spreading rapidly from teenagers.


    In the prosperous areas of Chang''an City, Princess Changle''s ice shop has also been prepared and is about to set off a cold wave in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 226

    East city!


    Dongshi is the most prosperous area of Chang''an city. People who come and go are either rich or expensive. Princess Changle''s entrepreneurial "please Lord Mo''s advice!" Zhou Yuchu brought up two cold plates and opened them gently. One was filled with cream ice cream, and the other was filled with fruit popsicles similar to Merton.


    Merton tasted it one by one and nodded again and again. After the cream was changed from deer milk to the milk proposed by Merton, the taste was better. As for the fruit popsicle, the taste was slightly worse, but it was still a rare delicacy under the secret formula of Zhou Yuchu.


    "What''s the yield of both?" Merton asked.


    "If you return to Lord Mo, because of the insufficient supply of cream, 300 ice cream per day is already the limit. I''m afraid the villain sold out in a short time, so he made this fruity popsicle. It can be made in large quantities."


    Fruit popsicles only use fresh fruit and ice, which can naturally be open to supply.


    "Time is limited. There are not many cows to find. Over time, we can certainly find them." Li Chengqian said.


    Merton nodded. Although it is not difficult to find cows around Chang''an City, it just takes time, but the cows here are not inferior to the professional cows of later generations, and the output is estimated to be too much.


    "For the time being, it''s just these two varieties. The taste can be changed at will. As for the pricing of the two, please let the princess decide." Chef Zhou Yuchu wondered if he had been in the palace for a long time, and the usual ingredients were rare and delicious. He just made them without considering the price. At the moment, it was difficult for him to set a price.


    Princess Changle is also a fool. She doesn''t touch the spring water with her hands. Even Zhou Yuchu is not as good as Li Chengqian.


    The three couldn''t help but focus on Merton at the same time. This kind of thing is only Merton.


    "Uh, uh!"


    Merton was speechless for a while, but at this point, he couldn''t get rid of it.


    "Ice cream is one silver and fruit popsicle is ten Wen." Merton asked the cost carefully and thought a little.


    Ice cream itself is a luxury in this era. It focuses on rich families. There are countless rich people in the East market. Naturally, they don''t care about a penny, while popsicles are needed by ordinary citizens. For the citizens of Chang''an, ten cents is not a great difficulty. This pricing is quite appropriate.


    "One piece of silver? Ten pieces are one or two pieces of silver, that is, the usual money. The three hundred pieces are thirty, and a month is nine hundred." Princess Changle was immediately full of "Venus". The monthly income of 900 Liang is much higher than her regular money.


    Merton smiled. In his opinion, the revenue of fruit popsicles is the big head, and the open supply of fruit popsicles is a steady stream of wealth.


    "In my opinion, at least three ice stores can be started at the same time. One in the East and West, one in the south, and the finished product shape radiates the whole Chang''an city." Merton said that ice making is a blank area of Chang''an City, so it is natural to seize the market to the greatest extent.


    "Three stores?" Li Chengqian jumped in his heart. If so, wouldn''t it be that his wealth has doubled several times? Such a huge wealth, even he couldn''t help but move.


    "The three stores also started at the same time, but the cream can''t be supplied at all! On average, only one store can supply 100 copies of ice cream. At that time, customers can''t buy ice cream. What should we do?" Chef Zhou didn''t understand.


    "If you can''t buy it, please wait for him the next day. The more you can''t buy it, the more eager he will be. This is hunger marketing!" a smile appeared at the corner of Merton''s mouth. If Qin Huaiyu were there, he would be very familiar with it. This is what Merton is most used to every time.


    "Hunger marketing?" Princess Changle and others were stunned.


    "According to Mozi''s secret book, there was a rich man who tasted delicious food all over the world and never knew what hunger was. Therefore, he became more and more hungry and unhappy.


    When Mozi learned about it, he said, "I know there is the most delicious food in the world, but I can''t get it easily. I need to find it myself. The rich man immediately decided to find it with Mozi. They traveled across mountains and rivers all day. On a dark and windy night, they came to a wilderness ridge with hunger and cold.


    At this moment, Mozi lost no time to present a dough cake hidden in the tree hole: "Kung Fu pays off, and finally found this delicious food."


    The hungry rich man was overjoyed immediately. Without saying a word, he immediately wolfed down the hard and cold bread and said that it was the most delicious food he had ever eaten in his life. "


    "This is hunger marketing! Only when people eat the ice cream they can really feel its delicious." Merton smiled with confidence.


    Princess Changle immediately jumped in her heart and turned red. She quickly lowered her head to cover up the past, but Li Chengqian, who was thinking about it, didn''t notice it at all.

 Chapter 227

    "What a hunger marketer, Mohist''s wisdom is amazing!" Li Chengqian exclaimed all over his face.


    Hunger marketing simply guessed the hearts of the people to the extreme, making people unknowingly, like a string puppet, controlled by people.


    The secret book of Mozi in Merton''s mouth has been widely spread in Chang''an City, and its various allusions are thought-provoking. At the moment, the hunger marketing is just the same.


    Merton is not guilty of fabricating Mozi''s Secret works in the name of Mohist saint. If you know, according to the textual research of later generations, not all Confucian classics are done by Confucius saint, and even many of them are done by later generations in the name of Confucius saint.


    Merton reminded the future generations of some places that need attention in hunger marketing. Different from all kinds of hunger marketing in the future, Princess Changle''s ice cream shop is not deliberately so scarce, but really scarce. Don''t smash the signboard when it was later called playing monkey, so as to prepare for expanding supply in the future.


    "OK, then open the three at the same time!" Princess Changle said with a firm voice. Her character is also soft inside and hard outside. Otherwise, she would not resolutely go to the women''s medical school to study medicine for the condition of empress changsun.


    Chengqian also nodded and agreed with Merton.


    "I don''t know the name of the shop?" Merton found that the plaque in front of the shop had not been hung.


    "Or call it an ice shop!" Princess Changle thought.


    "Ice shop!" Merton was speechless, and the name was really enough for himself.


    "Your Highness, we are not selling ice, but ice cream!" said Merton shaking his head.


    "Is there any difference?" Princess Changle looked confused.


    "Princess highness, ice is a common object. We have set such a high price. I am afraid it will reduce the sense of customer recognition." to know why the Haagen Dazs of later generations sell so expensive is not the brand effect.


    "How about ice and snow?" Li Chengqian suddenly thought.


    You''re still brave in the world! Merton couldn''t help saying something in his heart. Looking at the princess Changle, he couldn''t help thinking: "this shop is opened by the princess. The things sold are ice and snow. It''s better to call it ice and snow * strange fate?"


    "Ice and snow * strange fate?" Li Chengqian and Princess Changle immediately looked puzzled.


    Merton roughly narrated the story of ice and snow * strange fate, and the sisters in the story are deeply in love. At the moment, the ice cream shop is jointly owned by Princess Changle and Princess Jinyang.


    "What a beautiful story?" Princess Changle immediately lost her eyes and was deeply attracted by the story.


    Merton smiled. With the addition of this story, the ice cream shop can naturally make a sensation in the shortest time and achieve the best publicity effect.


    "Then use ice and snow * strange fate!" Princess Changle said happily.


    When the beautiful story of ice and snow * strange fate spread to thousands of families with ink magazine, the whole Chang''an City couldn''t help being infatuated with it.


    "Aisha is so powerful that she can make ice and snow?"


    "Anna and Aisha are so poor. They are a pair of good sisters, but they can''t meet because of misunderstanding."


    "Xuebao is so funny! How is it possible that a snowman still wants to spend summer?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There is no such wonderful and cool story in this era. At most, some storytellers can win the cheers of the people by giving some stories. The strange fate of ice and snow is all the rage.


    In the shade of the trees in Chang''an City, many young people leave their fields, wear T-shirts and hold ink magazines in their hands, and indulge in the story of the strange fate of ice and snow again and again.


    "If we also have Aisha''s magic and can make ice and snow in summer, we don''t have to suffer from the heat." in the shade of a tree in Dongshi, Gongshu Hao reluctantly put down his Ink magazine, touched a handful of beads of sweat, looked up at the hot sun and sighed.


    The public loser and the Mohist school are rivals, but he worships Merton very much. He knows all about Merton''s deeds, and the Mohist magazine doesn''t buy together. Of course, he secretly buys it behind the public loser''s back.


    "Ice making in summer, you think you''re a Mexican!" sneered a young man wearing a white T-shirt. These are gong Shuhong''s new friends in Chang''an City, all young people in shops around Dongshi.


    Gong Shuhao looked at his companion''s T-shirt with envy and couldn''t help but envy it. He borrowed it secretly, but it was much more comfortable than his T-shirt. Unfortunately, he had the courage to buy ink magazines secretly, but he didn''t have the courage to wear a T-shirt.


    "Hey?" when haodun was defeated by the public, the news of Mohist saltpeter ice making spread all over Chang''an City from chaotang, but saltpeter is a rare thing, let alone ice making.


    "Is this?" Gong Shuhao suddenly looked at an advertisement under the ink magazine.


    Ice cream shop! The addresses of three stores are printed below. One of them is in Dongshi, not far from them.


    "Ice shop! Ten Wen, one popsicle, one silver, one ice cream?" the white T-shirt boy also saw it and frowned.


    "So expensive!" public loser Hao smacked his tongue.


    "The ink magazine said that it was made by imperial chefs in the imperial palace. If you think about it, imperial chefs cook for the emperor. They must have excellent skills. The food they cook must be unparalleled delicious. Of course, it should be more expensive." the white compassionate youth said excitedly that if they can get a foothold in the east city, they are naturally not poor households, especially merchants. They usually have an underground status and want to attach themselves to dignitaries as a bragging capital, If you can eat the delicious food made by the imperial chef, you will naturally have the capital to boast.


    At that moment, he excitedly took Gongshu Hao to Dongshi ice cream shop. Public loser Hao hesitated for a moment and couldn''t help touching the money in his pocket. It was his only savings. Recently, public losers are following the Mohist School and implementing the collective system. They usually only give some pocket money. He saved the money for a long time.


    However, when he saw such a beautiful story about the strange fate of ice and snow, he followed it as soon as he gritted his teeth.


    When gongshuhao and others arrived at the ice and snow Qiyuan ice cream shop, they found that there had been a long line in the shop, and an ice basin was placed around the shop, which was cool and pleasant when they entered the shop.


    "This is your ice cream? Please take your time!"


    Gongshu Hao handed over a silver and took a plate of ice cream filled with cream and fruit. He couldn''t help but bleed. This plate cost him all his pocket money.


    However, when he took the first bite, the original feeling of heartache had already disappeared and was completely immersed in this unique delicacy.


    "Give me an ice cream," said a rich boy behind him. Seeing Gong Shuhao''s face enjoying it, he quickly took out a coin and put it on the table.


    "Sorry, our ice cream has been sold out. Please come back tomorrow!" said chef Zhou with a smile.


    Suddenly, gongshuhao felt that he had added three delicious points.

 Chapter 228

    Facts have proved that hunger marketing is a tried and true trick of shopping malls in future generations. Ice cream has been popular in the whole city in just three days.


    "Delicious."


    "I''ve lived for more than 20 years. It''s very hot every summer. I hate summer most. Now I want to spend summer every day."


    "I''ll go and sell it out again!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The whole Chang''an city is restless because of ice cream. Everyone who has had the honor to eat shows off the delicacy of ice cream like a superior, welcoming a group of envious eyes.


    Everyone who didn''t eat was itchy. He bit the fruit popsicle in his hand, looked contemptuously and showed off. He secretly determined to buy it early tomorrow.


    Fantastic stories, unprecedented hunger marketing, delicious food with saliva in the mouth, hot temperatures and word-of-mouth reputation. All kinds of factors add up to directly detonate the reputation of ice and snow.


    This is the magic of hunger marketing. The more you can''t buy it, the more you want it.


    However, not everyone is willing to spend a penny on ice cream. Ten Wen popsicles are also delicious, and the supply is open. More Chang''an citizens choose to buy fruit popsicles to relieve the summer heat, which directly increases the sales of fruit popsicles.


    Ten Wen a is not cheap for ordinary Chang''an citizens, but no one says it''s expensive, because everyone knows how valuable it is to chisel ice in summer.


    "It''s really unlucky. Why is my young master so unlucky that he hasn''t bought ice cream for five consecutive days!"


    Fang Jun entered the ink mansion with a fruity popsicle on his face. The ice cream was so hot that it naturally attracted the interest of young master Fang. Unfortunately, the ice cream shop was so hot, and young master Fang was frustrated and returned empty handed every time.


    Although the popsicle can relieve the summer heat, he has eaten it in Mo mansion. Naturally, it doesn''t have much attraction.


    "Merton, you know, ice cream is made by chef Zhou Yuchu. You''ll never forget the taste if you take a bite." the unlucky second room chattered to Merton next to the swimming pool. Obviously, he has a deep obsession in his heart.


    "By the way, did you buy it?" Fang Jun couldn''t help asking.


    "I didn''t buy it!"


    Merton shook his head. This sentence is indeed true. He did not buy it, but he had already tasted all the flavors in the palace.


    Fang Eryi looked disgusted and said: "This shop is advertised in your Mohist Ink magazine. You don''t know how popular it is now. There are only 100 copies a day, and there is no more than one point. Those crafty and cunning guys Li Zhen sent servants to line up there early. Once they opened the door, they sold out in a quarter of an hour. Young master wants to buy tomorrow''s products in advance and don''t sell them. I have to say do it now and sell it now. I want to say Merton and ice making You made it. Why didn''t you open the ice and snow adventure? This guy robbed it first! "


    Fang Jun complained to Merton that if Merton opened a shop, wouldn''t he be able to have access to ice cream every day and don''t have to be bullied.


    Merton said with a smile, "they''re ice cream. I can''t get milk."


    Fang Jun was suddenly frustrated. Of course he knew that ice cream was made of milk, but Li Zhen showed him off many times.


    "It''s said that there are two more in Chengnan and Xishi. Why don''t you go there and try your luck!" Qin Huaiyu came from the kitchen with a plate on his face. The two people behind him also looked like this.


    Fang Jun spat and said, "do you think the young master didn''t go..."


    Suddenly, Fang Jun opened his eyes and couldn''t believe looking at the plates in their hands. Qin Huaiyu and everyone were eating happily with a plate of ice cream.


    "Good! It turned out that he secretly sent someone to line up and you..." Fang Jun had a gnashing expression. It was these unruly guys that made him not eat ice cream for several days in a row.


    "You''ve wronged us. It''s so hot. Who ran so far to buy?" Wei Chi Baolin looked at Fang Jun like a fool and immediately hurt Fang Jun by 10000 points.


    Fang Jun said angrily, "no, it can be given to you by chef Zhou Yuchu!"


    The three nodded together.


    Merton smiled and explained, "they didn''t buy it. It was really sent by Zhou Yuchu. Some time ago, I built a swimming pool in the palace, met Zhou Yuchu, and helped me a little in the ink magazine. He specially thanked me."


    Merton dared not tell them that the ice cream shop was opened by the princess, so he had to put it on chef Zhou for the time being.


    "No wonder you know there is milk in ice cream?"


    Fang Jun suddenly said that when he thought about it carefully, he immediately felt that the popularity of this ice and snow strange fate had Merton''s shadow, fantastic stories, strange sales strategies, ink magazine advertisements and unprecedented food. This is simply a strong Mohist style!


    Fang Jun immediately hated his teeth and couldn''t buy them, but the three people sent delicious food to the door.


    "Is there any more?" Fang Jun hurriedly asked. Now is not the time to settle accounts.


    Chumo said with a smile, "there''s more when we leave, but Ziyi has been waiting there."


    Fang Jun was in a hurry. Regardless of being wet all over, he put on his clothes and ran back to the kitchen.


    "Sister in purple, keep one for me!" Fang Jun shouted as he ran.


    Merton shook his head and laughed. At the same time, he also deeply felt the popularity of the ice cream shop. After a while, Fang Jun came out of the kitchen with ice cream on his face. It seemed that he didn''t say good words to Ziyi and promised benefits.


    "Cool!"


    Fang Junmei took a mouthful of ice cream and shouted delicious.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at Fang Jun contemptuously. Although they also felt delicious, they couldn''t feel Fang Jun''s feeling.


    Merton sighed in his heart that this was the power of hunger marketing. He secretly thought it was time to increase the supply of ice cream.


    On the tenth day, ice and snow Qiyuan ice cream shop decided to increase the supply to 150 copies a day. The supply was still in short supply and was looted in a short time.


    The three ice cream shops in Chang''an City have become more and more famous. They have become a favorite place in Chang''an city. The ice cream here is delicious. Everyone praises them after eating it.


    Even if the ice cream shop has been sold out, it is still open here. Huge ice basins are placed in the shop all day to keep the air cool and comfortable. This is the most comfortable place in Chang''an city.


    Ice and snow Qiyuan shop took the initiative. Under the guidance of Merton, Zhou Yuchu, who holds a huge fortune, bought two four-wheel trucks and sold fruit popsicles directly along the main streets of Chang''an city. Wherever he went, he was immediately robbed, especially loved by the younger generation.


    In this hot summer, a wonderful fate of ice and snow conquered Chang''an City in just half a month.

 Chapter 229

    "God, so much money?"


    Dongshi


    In the ice and snow * Qiyuan ice cream shop, Princess Changle couldn''t believe looking at a lot of copper money and a full box of silver in front of her. The yellow orange copper money and silver tin invisible exudes tempting magic.


    "Tell your highness, it''s only half a month''s income!" Zhou Yuchu said proudly. The business is too hot these days, and the income of the other two will be transferred here every day, so huge wealth has gathered in the store. Although the security environment in Dongshi is good, Zhou Yuchu still thinks it''s better to transfer these money in case of Wanyi, So she informed Princess Changle to check the accounts.


    "How much is the total?" Princess Changle was a little at a loss. Although she usually spent a lot of money, at first glance, such a huge wealth was in front of her, and the impact was still quite great.


    "A total of more than 500 liang of silver and 520 yuan of copper!" Zhou Yuchu blushed and replied excitedly. He worked hard all his life as a royal chef and earned less than he had earned in the past half a month.


    Silver is the income of ice cream. Ice cream is priced at one money and one cent, and no copper money. Only 500 liang of silver has been accumulated, while copper money is the income of fruit popsicles. Fruit popsicles can be supplied in large quantities, and many people can afford to buy them. Except that the sales volume in the first three days is not high, it has increased steadily since then, especially when ice cream shops start to use four-wheel carriages and go out to sell them, It is extremely popular. On average, it can sell more than 5000 pieces a day. I believe there will be more in the future.


    A fruit flavored popsicle costs ten Wen. It can sell 50 shots a day. It should be 750 shots in half a month.


    "The other money is spent on the cost of the store. This is the account book! Also asks the Royal Highness to look over!" Zhou Chou handed a book to the princess of Changle.


    When Princess Changle opened it, she saw that the account book used Merton''s new account book. The daily expenses and income were clear at a glance. The biggest expenses of the ice cream shop were fruit and milk, and the newly purchased six four-wheel trucks. The saltpeter was made with the help of Li Chengqian. The four-wheel trucks were also sold at the price of Merton''s cabbage. As for the advertising of Ink magazine, it was free.


    In half a month, even if the cost was removed, there were thousands of times. With a huge fortune in hand, Princess Changle was deeply in strange satisfaction.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The royal residence in Taiyuan,


    Wang Zhe gracefully took a bite of the ice cream. On one side, the shopkeeper of maxing Wang stood with a flattering face and soaked his clothes with sweat. The ice cream was bought and delivered to Wang Zhe by shopkeeper Wang himself. Although he was able to send a waiter to line up, shopkeeper Wang went by himself. Such a humble attitude naturally satisfied Wang Zhe.


    With a mouthful of ice cream, Wang Zhe was immediately excited. He couldn''t help but make a satisfied sound. Eating ice cream in summer is the greatest enjoyment.


    "Wang Zhi, how much do you think ice cream shop can earn in January?" Wang Zhe asked shopkeeper Wang.


    "If you go back to the young master, it''s estimated by a villain that ice and snow can earn at least 2000 Guan a month!" shopkeeper Wang vowed.


    "Two thousand passes!" Wang Zhe''s eyelids jumped. Even if ice cream can only be sold in the hottest summer, it is nearly ten thousand passes a year. The cost of the most important ice cream shop is very simple and the capital investment is very small. Unlike a four-wheel carriage, although the transaction volume is large, the investment cost is like a bottomless pit.


    The Wangs have been at a disadvantage in Chang''an City for a while. The profits of sun YangZheng store and Yuncheng snow salt have fallen continuously, and the four-wheel carriage has not returned to its capital. Wang Zhen urgently needs a profit point to increase his family''s status, otherwise he will be punished when he is assessed years ago.


    Therefore, Wang Zhe stared at the ice and snow fate of the recent fire.


    "Have you ever found out the details of the strange fate of ice and snow?" Wang Zhe asked.


    "Don''t worry, young master! The villain has explored in great detail, and it''s really run by the returning Zhou Yuchu." Wang Zhixin swore that Princess Changle did such a rebellious thing for the first time. She was very careful and didn''t dare to show any foot at all. Everything was named on Zhou Yuchu.


    However, with the ten courage of Zhou Yuchu, he did not dare to covet Princess Mo''s industry, otherwise it would be difficult to escape to the ends of the earth.


    "Well, I heard that the Mexican family first invented saltpeter ice making! What''s the matter with Zhou Yuchu? Will it be the industry of the Mozi family?" Wang Zhe suddenly thought of a rumor and hesitated. He suffered losses from Merton again and again. Now he''s a bit frightened.


    "Young master, it''s impossible! There is no Mohist child in the three ice cream shops, and it''s impossible to learn from the Mohist industry." Wang Zhi said firmly. This is easy to check. Mohist children are easy to identify in Chang''an City, and Mohist children can''t directly participate in the ice cream shop. If Li Shimin liquidates in the future, That''s not putting the handle in Li Shimin''s hands.


    A retired imperial chef can explain why ice cream is so delicious. Wang Zhe immediately became active. The Mexican family is a hard stubble, and its momentum is booming. It is difficult to deal with, but Wang Zhe has not paid attention to a rootless retired imperial chef.


    Thinking of the profits of nearly 2000 yuan a month, and only in Chang''an City, if it is put in the hands of the Taiyuan Wang family, it will certainly let him open all over the land of the Tang Dynasty, especially in the hot place in the South all year round, it is a business that can make no loss. And there is no hidden ice. Isn''t it more popular.


    If you want to give ice cream to your family, you can not only erase this year''s loss, but also further your position in your family.


    Thinking of this, Wang Zhe immediately ordered a few words in Wang Zhi''s ear. Wang Zhi nodded and promised, "young master, don''t worry. I''ll be able to get the secret recipe for you in five days."


    "Three days at most!" Wang Zhe said sternly. Summer is very short. Naturally, the faster the better, and there is not much time left for him. The earlier he makes achievements, the greater his achievements in Taiyuan.


    Although Chang''an city is short of saltpeter, the Taiyuan Wang family is not short of saltpeter. Saltpeter is a subsidiary product of Yuncheng salt pond. Naturally, it is not difficult to get it. As for milk, it is not a problem. The Taiyuan Wang family not only has horse travel, but also cattle travel, and has a natural advantage backed by Turks.


    The more Wang Zhen thinks about it, the more excited he is. The ice cream shop is a natural industry for the Wang family. It''s almost occupied by the favorable weather and geography. It''s a natural thing to put it in the hands of a small imperial chef.


    "Then let ice cream flourish in my hands!" Wang Zhe was ecstatic.


    It has to be said that although Wang Zhi, a dog headed military master, usually only flatters his horse, he has great Kung Fu in crooked ways.


    In less than two days, under the coercion and inducement of Wang Zhi, a man stole the secret recipe of ice cream. After all, not everyone can resist the power of the Taiyuan Wang family.


    At the same time, this is also related to the inexperience of Princess Changle and Zhou Yuchu. After all, they are all novices in business. How can they know these things.


    At the same time, Wang Zhe mobilized the great strength of the Taiyuan Wang family, and a large number of saltpeter and milk producing cows and horses were sent to Chang''an city.


    Ten days later, Wang''s ice cream shop opened in Chang''an city! Once listed, as like as two peas and ice and snow, the flavor and mode are just the same.

 Chapter 230

    "Brother Mo, things are bad! The Wang family has also opened two ice cream shops!". In the Mo mansion, Zhou Yuchu said with fear on his face.


    Merton sighed: "I already know. Just now, Mo San came to the newspaper and said that the Wang family also wanted to advertise in Mo magazine, but I refused."


    "Brother Mo is still upholding justice." Zhou Yuchu said gratefully.


    "But how did the Wangs get the secret recipe for ice cream?" Merton didn''t understand. The other steps of ice cream are very simple, but cream making requires skills.


    "It''s my brother''s carelessness. He was betrayed by a waiter!" Chef Zhou regretted.


    When he saw that this guy was an elf, he wanted to cultivate him and accept him as a disciple. He usually gave more advice. In addition, he had no business experience and was unprepared.


    When the man quickly offered his resignation and the Wang family''s ice cream shop opened, Zhou Yuchu suddenly realized.


    "Has the business in the shop been affected now!" asked Merton.


    "The ice cream business can still be sold out in one day, but it takes more than five times as long as before. The fruit popsicle has the greatest impact," said Zhou Yuchu


    Ice cream is limited by dairy products, so it is difficult to expand its production. Even with the ice cream made by the Wang family, the supply is still in short supply, but the fruit popsicle is different, so it can expand its production in large quantities. In particular, the Wang family follows the example of ice and snow * Qiyuan, also takes a carriage to Chang''an City, and sells it for a penny cheaper, so there is competition, The fruit flavor popsicle of ice and snow * strange edge has appeared residual phenomenon.


    Merton suddenly realized that the Wang family had been operating in Chang''an for many years and had a lot of people. Coupled with the public losers'' technical support, the tools for making fruit popsicles were not difficult for them. Naturally, they could make a large number of popsicles.


    "Brother Mo, you have to help me!" Zhou Yuchu begged. When Princess Changle gave him the ice and snow * chance, she made a lot of money every day.


    As a result, only a month later, there was such a serious crisis, which was directly related to his dereliction of duty. Naturally, he could not escape.


    Merton was also annoyed. If it was fair competition, Merton naturally didn''t say anything, but the Wang family was still a country that was easy to change. They always liked to get something for nothing and steal other people''s hard work.


    Seeing Merton meditating, Zhou Yuchu couldn''t help but look gloomy and said, "brother Mo is embarrassed. The power of the Taiyuan Wang family is overwhelming. It''s really invincible."


    Taiyuan Wang''s family is a rich and famous family. Naturally, Mo''s family won''t go to war with Taiyuan Wang''s family for him. It seems that they have to ask Princess Changle for help.


    "Brother Zhou misunderstood. It''s not that the younger brother doesn''t stand out for the elder brother, but that the younger brother is unknown!" Morton said helplessly.


    Merton came up with an idea. The rest didn''t intersect with Mohism at all. It''s unreasonable to come forward rashly.


    Zhou Yuchu also knew Merton''s difficulties, and his face was sad.


    "But in Chang''an City, a servant stole the master''s secret recipe. I think as a parent, I can''t ignore it!" Merton suddenly said.


    "You mean reporting to the official!" Chef Zhou turned his eyes.


    "Good!" Merton smiled.


    "By the way, you haven''t paid taxes yet. It''s better to take the opportunity to hand in the business, pay taxes for business, and have an injustice officer. That''s what you should do by an honest businessman. And now that the matter has happened, the princess''s Royal Highness deserves to know."

    Chang''an County Government!


    Su Luosheng is looking at the paper in his hand with a headache. The ice and snow * Qiyuan ice cream shop in Chang''an City has sued the Taiyuan Wang family to steal his secret recipe.


    For the strange fate of ice and snow, he is like thunder and lightning. Every day, his wealth is rolling, and he has achieved another wealth myth in Chang''an city.


    "Master, it''s not easy to manage this matter! The Taiyuan Wang family, one of the five Wangs and seven surnames, has great power!" the master on one side advised.


    Su Luosheng nodded heavily. As a magistrate attached to Beijing, what he hated most was the unscrupulous extortion of these dignitaries. If he didn''t deal with the people scolding you, his boss would stare at you. If he made a big fuss and alerted the emperor, he would have an operation on him.


    And if you take care of these dignitaries, they are intertwined. If you offend a group of people, it will greatly affect your career.


    Suluosheng sighed and picked up an account book. This is the tax stub that Zhou Yuchu just sent with the paper.


    "Seventy dollars!"


    Su Luosheng sighed. He paid 70 yuan if the moon was a commercial tax. Over time, it is also a large taxpayer.


    At the moment, Chang''an County, as a pilot of the tax sharing system in Datang, naturally, the more taxes it collects, the better, and the stronger its political capital in the future.


    At this time, Constable Cao came in and whispered in the ear of Su County Magistrate.


    "Lord Mo really said so?" Su Luosheng suddenly changed his face.


    In fact, Constable Cao just conveyed Merton''s words, that is: "when I was in the palace, I heard that Princess Changle liked the ice cream made by chef Zhou Yuchu best."


    Constable Cao nodded solemnly. When Merton told him, he was also incredible.


    This sentence contains too much information. First of all, there was ice cream before Zhou Yuchu left the palace. A cook can openly sell royal food. Naturally, there is support behind it. That person is only the princess Changle mentioned by Merton.


    Ice and snow * Qiyuan is actually the industry of Princess Changle! Su Luosheng and Constable Cao both felt incredible, but they suddenly became clear. In this way, all the explanations could make sense. Zhou Yuchu was just a cook who had just left the palace, but he was able to open three stores in Chang''an City, which caused such a storm.


    If the Royal Princess is behind, everything will be explained. The magistrate of Su County doesn''t believe Merton will cheat him, because it can''t stand scrutiny at all.


    Su County Magistrate is the local leader of Chang''an city. Many news are very sensitive. With the information transmitted by Merton, all doubts have been answered one by one.


    Where does Zhou Yuchu''s saltpeter come from and the collection of milk all need a lot of energy. Obviously, this is not what a small imperial chef can do, and the creativity of ice cream. Zhou Yuchu dares not to give it to the palace and make a profit when he turns out of the palace?


    After a long time, Huo Ran, the magistrate of Su County, got up and said decisively, "Constable Cao, gather a team of captors and follow the county to the Wang''s ice cream shop."


    "Yes!" Constable Cao took the order.


    "Master!" shiye wants to advise and offend the Taiyuan Wang family. This is not a wise choice.


    Su Luosheng waved his long sleeve and said, "the intention of the county has been determined! There is no need to persuade again!"


    In the teacher''s helplessness, Su Luosheng did not hesitate to lead the county government''s officers to attack the wangjiabing store.

 Chapter 231

    Wangjia ice shop!


    Wang Zhe doesn''t have such a fancy story. He directly named the simplest ice shop.


    Wang Zhe looked at the carts of fruit popsicles with satisfaction. What he brought back was money, and what he paid was just some fruit and water.


    "This is really a huge profit!" Wang Zhe said with ecstasy.


    "Young master! Now there''s enough fifty thousand dollars!" shopkeeper Wang said with a happy face.


    Due to the competition with ice and snow, the price set by Wang''s ice shop is not too high. Ice cream and fruit popsicles sell only 50000 yuan a day.


    If so, it would be a great achievement. It would almost catch up with the one-day turnover of Yuncheng snow salt, and in terms of profit, it is several times that of salt.


    Wang Zhe sat in a cool ice cream shop and was extremely comfortable. With the ice cream business, what was his previous loss? I believe that by the time of the year-end assessment, he will be able to go further and get the reuse of his family.


    A servant hurried in and interrupted Wang Zhe''s fantasy.


    "Tell me, childe! The magistrate of Su County is coming."


    Wang Zhen couldn''t help but be stunned. He couldn''t help looking back at the busy man in the kitchen. He had a vague guess in his heart.


    However, with the power of the Taiyuan Wang family, he was not afraid of a small county magistrate. When he annexed Xu Caishen, he didn''t see Su Luosheng stand up.


    However, the county magistrate is not as good as the present one. After all, he is still under the jurisdiction of Chang''an County, and the proper etiquette cannot be lost.


    "I didn''t know that Su County Magistrate was coming. I''m sorry. I''m sorry. I''m sorry." Wang Zhe greeted him. He looked like a prince of the elegant aristocratic family. He couldn''t help praising him when he saw him.


    Su Luosheng couldn''t help but sigh to himself that Wang Zhe was handsome outside, but in fact he was extremely greedy inside and recklessly used his power for his own benefit.


    Even in suluosheng''s career as county magistrate, the Wang family''s industry almost never paid a penny of tax.


    Compared with seeing Wang Zhe''s hypocritical face, suluosheng secretly compared it with a compassionate Merton in his heart. He secretly shook his head at Wang Zhe. They were very different.


    "The county magistrate received the paper and Zhou Yuchu sued Wang''s ice shop for stealing ice cream secret recipe. The county came here today to verify it." Su Luosheng said proudly.


    Now that he has learned that the strange fate of ice and snow is the property of Princess Changle, he has a choice in his heart. Naturally, he will not be good to Wang Zhe.


    Wang Zhe laughed and said, "the magistrate of Su County is joking. My Wang family is a famous family with five family names. It is a well-known family of poetry, etiquette and righteousness. How can I covet the skill of a cook."


    Wang Zhe said with awe inspiring righteousness. Opening and closing your mouth is the glory of the Wang family.


    Su Luosheng despised Wang Zhe''s face in his heart, but said, "the county also knows that the reputation of the Wang family can''t be tarnished. This time, he came here to seriously verify and return the Wang family''s innocence."


    "Those who are clear are clear, and those who are turbid are turbid. It''s just gossip of ordinary people. Magistrate Su doesn''t have to take it to heart." Wang Zhe said slightly when he heard the speech.


    "However, the ice and snow Qiyuan ice cream shop opened only half a month ago, and the Wang ice shop has just opened, and the chef of the Wang ice shop is just the man of the previous Zhou Yuchu. This case is too coincidental, and the county has to come to investigate it."


    Wang Zhe sneered: "county magistrate Su, if you don''t tell me about it, I still want to avenge you. Ice cream is the formula of our chef Hu Cheng, but it is occupied by chef Zhou. Hu Cheng is angry, but he takes art to the Wang family."


    "If so, the county can know the truth after checking. If so, I will naturally give justice to the Wang family and ask chef Hu to follow the county." suluosheng said strongly.


    Hu Cheng''s face suddenly changed when he heard the news. He knew what he had done. Once he entered the yamen, it was not gone.


    "This is the property of my Wang family. Is Su County Magistrate determined to cut the face of the Wang family?" Wang Zhe said with an embarrassed face.


    He knew that once this guy was controlled by Su county magistrate, it would not be so simple. It was beyond his control,.


    How can an ordinary man keep a secret when he arrives in prison? Everything he does will be exposed. At this time, Wang Zhe''s only way is to use the power of the Wang family to make Su County Magistrate give up.


    "Of course, if Su County Magistrate affirms the Wang family''s face, he will receive the Wang family''s kind return in the future." after Wang Weiwei forced him, he threw out an attractive carrot.


    Su County Magistrate sneered in his heart. If he was normal, he would not offend such vengeful CHILDES, but the eating appearance of the Wang family was too ugly. He had offended people who shouldn''t offend. He was blinded by his huge wealth and dared to start without in-depth investigation.


    A prince''s son wouldn''t let him throw a rat into the trap, but if the emperor knew that his daughter had been wronged, but he was biased towards the Taiyuan Prince''s family, we can imagine how miserable his end was. It was the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty and the emperor''s most beloved daughter.


    "If it''s a grievance, you''ll know as soon as you check it. Come and take this person." at the command of Su county magistrate, Cao Li led a group of servants to rush into the store and take Hu Cheng,


    Hu Cheng was immediately frightened and shouted, "childe Wang, save me, shopkeeper Wang, you promised me. You mean you promise to be okay. No one dares to provoke the Taiyuan Wang family."


    Hu Cheng is now very regretful. If he was not greedy for profit, how could he come to this end? The county magistrate in front of him is obviously not afraid of the Wang family, otherwise he would not detain himself. He is an ordinary man. When he saw such a battle, he panicked and shouted.


    Su County Magistrate smiled at shopkeeper Wang and said, "it seems that someone can''t get rid of the relationship. Shopkeeper Wang will take it together.


    Wang Zhe suddenly turned crazy. Compared with Hu Cheng, shopkeeper Wang knew too many secrets about him. Once shopkeeper Wang was mastered, he knew his lifeblood.


    Shopkeeper Wang is also a bachelor. He said directly, "it''s none of your business. It''s my own greed. I deceived the young master. If you want to catch me, catch me."


    Shopkeeper Wang knows that only when he keeps his young master can he have a chance to turn over.


    Suluosheng''s face sank. This is one of the reasons why dignitaries are most likely to get rid of their sins. If they commit a crime, someone will always come out to take the blame.


    At the same time, suluosheng sneered in his heart. This time, you can''t resist it. You offend the royal family, but only one doubt is enough, not to mention that you have conclusive evidence.


    "Somebody, take them back to the county government!" Su Luosheng drank coldly, leaving his face blue. Wang Zhe turned and was ready to leave.


    But suddenly I heard Wang Zhe suddenly say, "county magistrate Su, wait a minute. I want to talk to the county magistrate alone."

 Chapter 232

    "Sir!" Constable Cao quickly blocked Su Luosheng. They had just offended the prince. I''m afraid it would be inappropriate for the county magistrate to be alone with him.


    "No harm!"


    Su County Magistrate did smile. It seems that the Wang''s son is not a complete straw bag,


    The door of Wang''s ice shop is closed. There are only Su County Magistrate and Wang Zhe in the shop.


    "There is no outsider at the moment. Please let the county Lord let the boy understand who is behind the strange fate of ice and snow?" Wang Zhe lowered his attitude at the moment. After his anger, he naturally understood that there were too many anomalies in Su Luosheng''s move. Naturally, there are profound reasons behind it.


    Su Luosheng sneered: "the strange fate of ice and snow is just opened by a royal kitchen just out of the palace. What Beijing can do, the county is just dealt with according to law."


    Su Luosheng''s tone was sarcastic, but when it came to the imperial chef, he deliberately accentuated his tone. Although he made a tough move, he didn''t want to offend the Taiyuan Wang family. Appropriate advice is conducive to his handling of the case and reduce resistance.


    Wang Zhen was struck by lightning. He immediately realized the meaning of this sentence. The problem was that he just came out of the palace and came out of the palace. Naturally, he was the person in the palace.


    "Which Prince?" Wang Zhe shook his head at random and denied that any prince who has some ideas about the throne can''t be infected with this kind of thing, even secretly. Once poked out, it will be an eternal stain.


    "Then it can only be a princess!"


    Wang Zhe immediately turned pale and staggered into a chair. This time he kicked on the iron plate.


    Su Luosheng sneered in his heart. Wang Zhe beat the eagle all day and was finally pecked blind by the eagle. Princess Changle is his Majesty''s favorite daughter. The Wang family used the princess''s move to deal with ordinary people.


    If the competition is fair, even the royal family has nothing to say, but the royal family is trying to die by stealing the secret recipe by the most despicable means.


    "Princess Changle?"


    Wang Zhe looked at each other at Wang Yushi''s house. As the royal family in Taiyuan, they naturally had their own set of sources. This was not the secret of exploring the palace. Naturally, it was not difficult. With the intention of exploring, they soon found Princess Changle.


    "The Royal Princess does business in person, which is not competing for profits with the people?" Wang Zhe said sadly and angrily.


    Wang Yushi sneered: "competing for profits with the people? Is it because you compete for profits?"


    Wang Zhe was speechless immediately. It seems that they are the only two families in the whole Datang ice cream and fruity popsicles.


    "She is a Royal Princess, and the princess''s business itself is against the law first." Wang Zhe said unconvinced.


    "Do you have any evidence? From beginning to end, a returning imperial chef came forward and paid taxes on time. Who can prove that it is the property of Princess Changle?" said Wang Yushi, who hates iron and does not become steel.


    Yes! Ice and snow Qiyuan ice cream shop is directly built into an ordinary shop, which is operated properly and pays taxes on time. In order to avoid taxes, the Wang family''s industry is hung on the family''s head.


    "By the way, there''s another thing. It''s said that the ice cream was offered by Mozi when he built the swimming pool for the imperial palace." Wang Yushi said with a cloudy and uncertain face. For Merton, who ruined his son''s future, this guy is like a conqueror of the Wang family. Whenever there is an accident in the Wang family, he has his figure.


    "MOH family!" Wang Zhe immediately gnashed his teeth.


    Merton, who was far away in the Mo mansion, could not help shivering. He just mentioned the magistrate of Su County casually. Unexpectedly, he still caused trouble.


    With the Wang family''s active cooperation, Zhou Yuchu''s case against the Wang family was closed in the shortest time.


    Hu Cheng and Wang Zhi colluded with each other to steal Zhou Yuchu''s secret recipe, and both people and stolen goods were caught. After reporting to Dali temple, the punishment was meted out according to the crime. The Wang family inspector was unknown, which damaged Zhou Yuchu''s interests. They were sentenced to offset the two Wang family ice stores to Zhou Yuchu to make up for Zhou Yuchu''s losses.


    Snow and ice suddenly expanded to five stores, and the Wang family paid more than the store. In order to eliminate the anger of Princess Changle, the Wang family also left a large number of saltpeter and milk producing cows and horses.


    Su County Magistrate was not afraid of the power of the Wang family with five Wangs and seven surnames and presided over justice for Zhou Yuchu. The news immediately caused an uproar in Chang''an City and won a great reputation for Su County Magistrate


    "What a blue sky master!"


    "Not afraid of dignitaries, honest and clean!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Where suloshen went these days, there was cheering from the great master of the blue sky everywhere.


    "As long as you encounter crimes, the county will enforce the law impartially. You and other merchants only need to abide by the law and do not evade taxes. The county guarantees you peace and security." Su County Magistrate took the opportunity to publicize tax matters. Chang''an County is a pilot tax sharing system, and the focus naturally lies on taxes.


    For a while, the resistance of merchants in Chang''an city to collect taxes was greatly reduced, and many merchants were eager to pay taxes. They didn''t understand the inside story. They just heard that Zhou Yuchu paid taxes first, and then the magistrate of Su County tried to support justice for him.


    Under this trend, many dignitaries immediately converged. Naturally, the Wang family did not dare to tell the reasons. They only acted as Su County Magistrate and vigorously protected tax paying merchants because of the tax sharing system.


    At the moment, the tax sharing system is the pilot of the imperial court. If there is trouble at this time, it is estimated that no one can escape, and the business environment of Chang''an city will be cleared immediately.


    Mo Fu.


    "Young master, you''d better go and see shopkeeper Xu!"


    Seeing off the grateful chef Zhou Yuchu, Merton just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard fuber''s report.


    Merton suddenly knew that shopkeeper Xu and Zhou Yuchu had the same experience, but they received different results. Of course, Xu Jie had some ideas in his heart.


    Xu lives in another hospital.


    Xu Jie is sipping muggy wine, while aunt Xu is accompanied anxiously.


    "Young master?"


    When Aunt Xu saw Merton coming, she immediately went up and saluted.


    Xu Jie also wanted to get up, but his body couldn''t help but stumble. He smiled bitterly and said, "boss, I''m rude!"


    "Shopkeeper Xu, you can''t drink muggy wine like this. You have to match good wine and food."


    Merton waved his hand. In the purple clothes behind him, he immediately brought the prepared food and a jar of distilled wine.


    "Shopkeeper Xu works hard all day. He goes out early and returns late on weekdays. It''s just this opportunity today. We''ll sit down and reward him." Merton lined up the mud seal of the wine jar and suddenly a strong smell of wine came to his face.


    Xu Jie''s eyes lit up immediately. Of course, he was no stranger to this beautiful wine in Mojia village, but the whole Mojia village was treated as Master Li. Other wines were sent to Mojia hospital, and some were looted by Li Shimin and others.


    "Come on, shopkeeper Xu, I''ll give you a toast!" Merton poured a glass of wine for shopkeeper Xu.


    "Thank you, boss!"


    Xu Jie drank it all at once, and a hot current rushed into his heart. It was really the best in the wine.


    After three rounds of wine, shopkeeper Xu suddenly blushed and drunk.


    "Boss, why do you think the powerful people can be so unscrupulous? Will our merchants never come out?" Xu Jie spit out the truth after drinking and spit out the words that have been suppressed in his heart for a long time.


    Similarly afflicted people pity each other. Zhou Yuchu and Xu Jie are the same. However, the outcome is quite different. The most fundamental reason is that Zhou Yuchu represents his highness, while Xu Jie is alone.


    If it were not for Merton''s help, Xu Jie would end up miserable in the end. If he didn''t fall into the king''s house as a slave, his family would be ruined.


    Xu Jie couldn''t help laughing miserably when he saw Merton''s silence. He didn''t despise his boss at all. Merton''s various behaviors have long proved that he is an unborn genius. Even Merton was silent on this matter, which can imagine the cruelty of the truth.


    Seeing that Xu Jie was so decadent, Merton couldn''t help sighing. He didn''t directly answer his question, but mentioned a seemingly irrelevant thing and said, "Mr. Xu may not know. Once upon a time, the Mohist school was reduced to a humble place like dust. The idea was not appreciated and almost disappeared."


    "But my father was not willing to let Mohism die, so he led the only remaining children of Mohism to join the Tang army, followed his majesty to fight south and North, and finally won the position of marquis. However, there were no last ten children of Mohism, and my father died soon. Mohism tried its best to sacrifice the last children in exchange for an opportunity to let the world know Mohism again The opportunity of Mohism is what Mohism is today. "


    Xu Jie nodded and coveted the power of the Mohist village, which was more cruel than Xu Jie. If the Mohist had not been supported by the position of marquis, I''m afraid it would have been swallowed by other power figures, not to mention the situation today.


    "When I say this, I don''t mean the rise of Mohism, but to let the world change the status of Commerce. It requires people to make sacrifices and struggle from generation to generation. I believe that one day, the tax paid by businesses will account for 90% of the tax rate of Datang, which is the day when merchants will come out." Merton said proudly that if Mohism wants to rise again, it can only take the road of industry and commerce, Once the proportion of industrial and commercial taxes occupied the mainstream of the Tang Dynasty, it was the day of the rise of Mohism, which was also the main reason why Merton took the initiative to pay commercial taxes.


    "I wonder if Mr. Xu is willing to be a pioneer and pave the way for future generations!"


    "Never die!"


    Xu Jie drank the liquor in his hand and said firmly.


    When the food core is exhausted and the dishes are in a mess, Xu Jie, who is in a great mood, lies drunk on the table and still yells vague sentences. For a while, his tone is low and for a while, he is impassioned.


    "Take good care of Mr. Xu!"


    "Yes, young master!" aunt Xu helped Xu Jie down to rest.


    Merton was drunk. After coming to the Tang Dynasty, he was so drunk for the first time. Xu Jie and Zhou Yuchu had different experiences. Merton felt the same feelings. The rule of Zhenguan was indeed a rare Qingming era. However, in the final analysis, the rule of man was higher than the rule of law. Today''s experience made Merton clearly realize that the status of Mohism is still like a dangerous egg. If you don''t pay attention, I''m afraid it''s not much better than Xu Jieqiang.


    "Everything will change! Because I came to this era." Merton clenched his fist and swore in his heart.

 Chapter 233

    "Sister Changle!"


    "Sister Changle!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the harem, when a group of princes and daughters saw Princess Changle, they were very affectionate and respectful.


    Princess Changle said with a spoiled smile, "you go to school well. Your sister will leave the palace another day and bring you delicious and fun."


    "Yes!" the princes and princesses nodded again and again.


    Princess Changle has become more and more like a long Princess recently. She has a lot of cash. She bought a lot of good things outside the palace and distributed them to her brothers and sisters. She is fair and just, caring and strict.


    Soon the princes and princesses will be accepted. As soon as they are free, they will walk around Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle sent her brother and sister away, especially the boys, to the swimming pool immediately. Then Princess Changle led a group of palace maidens and eunuchs to the Lizheng hall.


    "See my father and mother!"


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were talking in the Lizheng palace. When they saw Princess Changle coming in, they immediately showed a kind smile. Recently, they had already seen the performance of Princess Changle and were naturally extremely satisfied.


    The Hougong brothers and sisters love each other. That''s Li Shimin''s greatest hope for his children. After all, he doesn''t want the Xuanwumen affair to happen again.


    "Empress mother, I went out of the palace yesterday. I saw some Shu Brocade very beautiful and felt it was especially suitable for Empress mother, so I bought it." Princess Changle held a Shu Brocade in her hand and handed it to empress changsun.


    "My son has a heart!" said empress Chang sun with satisfaction. She is a queen. She has a wide range of knowledge. At a glance, you can see that this Shu Brocade is indeed the top boutique. The printing, dyeing and handicrafts are the most first-class and valuable.


    "Mother likes it!" Princess Changle said happily and waved. Suddenly, more than a dozen eunuchs came in with a Shu brocade, with different colors and patterns.


    Empress changsun couldn''t help but open her mouth. The more this top-level Shu Brocade is, the more rare it is. Princess Changle has covered all these Shu brocades!


    However, empress changsun is the Lord of the harem. She quietly talked about needlework with Princess Changle, but secretly gave a secret signal to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin nodded knowingly.


    "Father, mother, child, come back another day!" Princess Changle, Li Shimin and empress changsun had a meal before they got up and left.


    "Emperor? Where do you think Changle got so much money?" empress changsun said anxiously. No one knows the cost of each palace in the palace. With the financial resources of Princess Changle, she can''t afford such expensive things.


    "Shouldn''t it be..." empress Chang sun opened her mouth and didn''t say it.


    "No!" Li Shimin shook his head and denied.


    He knew what empress changsun meant. He was worried that Princess Changle was young and would receive heavy gifts from others.


    "Don''t worry, Guanyin maid. Changle has been clever since childhood and won''t do such a thing." Li Shimin comforted empress changsun.


    Empress changsun thought about Princess Changle''s recent excellent performance and put it down slightly, but there was always a shadow.


    Soon, pound came in a hurry and handed Li Shimin a secret fold.


    Li Shimin took a look, suddenly his face changed and said angrily, "it''s nonsense."


    "Emperor, Changle is still young and not sensible. Don''t be angry!" the empress changsun trembled and thought that Princess Changle had really done something to collect heavy gifts privately.


    Empress changsun was weak. Li Shimin didn''t dare to let her worry too much. He quickly handed the secret fold to her.


    "It''s not Changle''s fault. I don''t blame Changle."


    Empress Chang Sun took the secret fold and looked at it. Her face changed from Yin to sunny, and then sunny to overcast. The Phoenix stared and shouted, "it''s unreasonable."


    "Don''t worry, Guanyin maid. I will not spare Merton this time!" Li Shimin was angry. He knew that Merton would do things wherever he went. Originally, the construction of the swimming pool was very successful this time, and he offered ice cream, a popular food in the harem, which was perfect.


    Unexpectedly, he secretly encouraged Princess Changle to do business with ice cream. When he looked at the ice cream shop, he knew that Merton must be the boy. In addition, Merton indirectly caused Princess Changle to study medicine before. Now new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart.


    "Why? You don''t care if your daughter is bullied. Are you afraid of the Taiyuan King''s family?" the eldest Sun Queen clenched her teeth.


    Although the empress changsun has a good mother, she is essentially a mother. When she sees her daughter making money and being bullied by the Wang family, she is of course angry.


    Li Shimin found that he seemed to have said something wrong.


    "Don''t be angry, Guanyin maid. Of course, I love my daughter, but if Merton didn''t encourage Changle to open a shop, how could such a thing happen?" Li Shimin advised again and again.


    "What''s the matter with Changle''s store? I didn''t play the banner of a princess. I kept myself in line, but I was bullied. Besides, the married Princess doesn''t have her own industry!"


    The princess mentioned by Empress Chang sun at the moment is naturally the princess of the supreme emperor. The princess style of the Tang Dynasty is fierce, which is not only later. It has started from the generation of Li Yuan.


    Moreover, in this case, if it is only good or bad to distinguish, there can be two sharp contrasts. Merton is a good man to help Princess Changle, while Wang Zhe is a bad person to bully the market. Empress changsun naturally stands on Merton''s side and speaks for Merton.


    Ice was invented by Merton, and ice cream was presented by Merton. In the end, Princess Changle benefited the most. Although the royal family is not short of money, it is not too hot for money. Moreover, the money comes from an open and just source, and it will be a rich dowry as Princess Changle''s industry in the future.


    Besides, Princess Changle did not abuse the money, but managed the harem children in an orderly manner. Princess Changle did her duty and was filial to them.


    "Well, I naturally know that Changle has been wronged. Hasn''t Chang''an County Magistrate got justice for Princess Changle?" Li Shimin said with a bitter smile.


    "That''s an honest official! What if you meet a timid official?" the eldest Sun Queen snorted coldly. For a mother, the biggest truth is to consider it from the standpoint of her daughter.


    Obviously, few officials dared to offend the Taiyuan royal family in the Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin couldn''t help looking embarrassed. The experience of Princess Changle made Li Shimin recognize the greedy nature of these aristocratic families.


    Li Shimin can imagine that even the princess can encounter such things in business. Unfortunately, there must be a lot of these things in some dark corners of the Tang Dynasty. Relying on their power, these aristocratic families constantly suck blood from Datang for their own selfish desires.


    Datang, a super warship, has set sail. Since these aristocratic families can''t keep up, they can only abandon it.

 Chapter 234

    When she returned to her palace, Princess Changle was always uneasy. She deliberately exposed her wealth in front of the empress changsun. Since Zhou Yuchu sent a letter to tell the story, Princess Changle knew she couldn''t hide it.


    "It''s all the Wang family!" Rao is Princess Changle''s good temper. She is still angry. If the Wang family didn''t interfere, how could she be exposed?


    Princess Changle felt uneasy for a long time until it was dark, only waiting for a will of Li Shimin brought by pound.


    "Not again!"


    "Obey your father''s will!"


    Princess Changle said respectfully.


    When pound had just left, Princess Changle jumped up happily. Since it would not be an example, it was natural to acquiesce in the fact that she opened an ice cream shop. What Merton thought of for her worked.


    However, Princess Changle didn''t know that Merton was blacklisted by Li Shimin because of this matter. In the eyes of parents all over the world, his children are certainly the most clever. What happened must be the fault of others.


    And Merton is the one who seduces his daughter into making mistakes.


    There is no airtight wall in the world. In addition, the performance of Su Luosheng and the Wang family is really unreasonable. Su Luosheng''s punishment is very heavy, and the Wang family did not express any dissatisfaction, but tried their best to cooperate.


    The Taiyuan Wang family, who was far away in Chang''an City, responded very quickly and immediately ordered Wang Zhe to return to Taiyuan for punishment, which is not in line with the Wang family''s consistent overbearing style.


    Under the detection of the intentional people, Princess Changle behind Zhou Yuchu soon appeared in front of the people. They suddenly realized that the Wang family really kicked the iron plate this time. No wonder they were so obedient.


    The Wang family is known as the king but not the king, but it is a fake king after all. It is still not enough to see the real king.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Outside the east gate of Chang''an, Wang Zhe said gnashing his teeth.


    He was severely reprimanded by his family in Taiyuan and asked to return to Taiyuan immediately and remove all posts in Chang''an city immediately.


    In this incident, he could not afford to provoke Princess Changle, so all Wang Zhe''s grievances focused on Merton.


    "Young master!" Wang Dong, the shopkeeper of the salt shop, came in a hurry.


    "What I told you to do? How''s it going?" Wang Zhe asked.


    "Don''t worry, young master. The news has been passed on to the eldest grandson!" Wang Dong replied. He wanted to persuade his young master, but he wanted to stop talking.


    "Don''t worry, my young master naturally knows discretion. As for how Chang sun Chong does it, it''s none of my business." Wang Zhe sneered.


    He is completely out of power now, but he will never make Merton feel better. He and Chang sun Chong are friends. Naturally, he knows that a thorn in Chang sun Chong''s heart is Princess Changle.


    It was Merton who made Chang sun Chong lose Princess Changle, and now Merton is in close contact with Princess Changle. He doesn''t believe that Chang sun Chong didn''t respond after hearing the news.


    Zongzheng mansion.


    Chang sun Chong looked at the letter fold in his hand with a gloomy face. Wang Zhe didn''t exaggerate in his heart, but told the story in detail.


    Rao is so. It''s enough. Chang sun Chong was already angry. If there was not a trace of reason, he would have been furious.


    "This dog man and woman!"


    The eldest son said with hatred on his face.


    However, Chang sun Chong, who entered the officialdom, saw all kinds of intrigues, and his mind became more gloomy. He forcibly suppressed his anger.


    But the fire has begun to ignite and detonate at some time from time to time.


    After getting drunk, Xu Jie quickly recovered his energy and made more efforts. He even rushed to Luoyang City to open up the four-wheel carriage market. Now it is a period of rapid expansion of the four-wheel carriage. With the help of Luoyang City and the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal, the four-wheel carriage can occupy half of the market of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, Xu Jie needs to take the seat in person.


    Go to Luoyang with Xu Jie and Zhou Yuchu.


    There are five ice cream shops in Chang''an city. Obviously, the market is saturated, and after the Wang family, ice and snow is safe.


    Luoyang city is also a super market that is not inferior to Chang''an city. Zhou Yuchu naturally can''t let go.


    After all this, Merton finally had time to enjoy his summer plan.


    Wear T-shirts every day, soak in the swimming pool at noon, eat ice cream, or drill into a room with an ice basin to cool off. Life is very natural and unrestrained.


    However, this leisurely life was soon interrupted by Li Yi''s arrival.


    "Uncle Li! How''s the summer grain harvest in the village?" Merton asked with concern.


    In Merton''s impression, there are very few superior fields in Mojia village, most of which are medium and low yield fields, and the grain harvest has been very bad. In addition, Mojia village has a large population. Although Merton has tax-free land, many villagers have little left after paying taxes.


    "If you go back to the young master, the rush harvest of summer grain in the village has been completed. Compared with previous years, due to the water truck irrigation along both banks of the river, the rest of the dry fields have used the young master''s drought resistance method. Most of the fields in the village have been irrigated first, and this year''s harvest has not increased but decreased." Li Yi said proudly.


    At the same time, I have some regrets. If Merton''s drought resistance method is arranged in advance, the harvest of fields in Mojia village will be better.


    "I came here today to discuss buying food for the young master," Li Yi said.


    "Buy food? The food in Mojia village has just had a good harvest?" Merton didn''t understand.


    Li Yi smiled bitterly and said: "young master, there are still a lot of recruiters in Mojia village in addition to the population of the village. Now the people who often work in Mojia village have exceeded the population of the village. The food that needs to be consumed every day is a terrible number. The food produced in Mojia village is barely self purchased and used. If you want to ensure sufficient food, you can only buy food."


    The number of workers in Mojia village and the families of these people are first-class labor and eat a lot. If the Mojia village hadn''t bought a lot of grain before, I''m afraid it wouldn''t be able to support the arrival of summer grain.


    "Moreover, this is the time when the grain price is the lowest and the best time to buy grain," Li Yi said.


    "Low food prices?" Morton said in surprise.


    He personally led Mojia village to Chang''an city to buy food, and the price soared all the way!


    "Young master, I don''t know. When summer grain and autumn grain harvest, grain prices plummet. Farmers can''t sell grain for a good price after a hard year. Once there is a shortage, grain prices will rise sharply. If there is a disaster year, it will double." Li Yi said with a bitter smile.


    At that time, Mojia village did not suffer less in this regard. Every year, the grain was exploited by those grain merchants, so that it became poorer and poorer.


    "This is not the Tang Dynasty version of" three or five more fights "Merton involuntarily remembered an article of later generations.

 Chapter 235

    "Big Dipper in, small dipper out!"


    "Sell low, sell high!"


    "Disaster years earn more than harvest years."


    Li Shimin looked at the article in Ink magazine and his face was gloomy.


    "Three or five more Dou" published in Mohist magazine is the classical Chinese version of Li Fuzi. After Mohist School became rich, Li Fuzi left his teaching job in Mohist village. When he was in a hurry, he volunteered to come to Mohist magazine as editor in chief.


    This is also suitable for his character. He started from Feng Shui. This time, he saw the vernacular version handed over by Merton, collected more than three or five Dou, scolded Merton, personally wrote the classical Chinese version, and signed his name impolitely.


    This was agreed by all Mohists. After all, this article offended too many people. Master Li also wanted to protect Merton.


    The gap is nearly three times. Farmers have worked hard for a year and can only earn enough money. If there are three long and two short in the middle, a family will have to borrow money to make a living. Moreover, the interest at this time is the interest of donkey rolling. If they can''t pay back the money, they will be able to waste their property.


    "Pound!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice.


    "The old slave is here!" replied pound.


    "Go to Chang''an city immediately to explore the price of grain in Chang''an City in the last year." Li Shimin said.


    Pound hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, calm down. This phenomenon described by Master Li is a matter of the previous dynasty."


    Just as Master Li protected Merton, Merton did not agree that Master Li directly opposed these interest groups, but advanced the time to the Sui Dynasty.


    Li Shimin immediately sneered and said, "you don''t know who the strange Confucian Li Duo is. I don''t know yet. He probably wouldn''t even look at what happened in the previous dynasty."


    At that time, Master Li was called a strange Confucian because he criticized current politics. He was excluded by the mainstream of Chang''an City and was not allowed to live in a Mohist village with similar ideas. Now that he has ink magazine in hand, it is like a fish in water. How can the article signed by him be exposed by a sentence from the previous dynasty.


    Li Shimin is sure that Master Li will definitely use the past to satirize the present, and the grain price in Chang''an city must be strange.


    Pound''s efficiency was very high. Soon, the price of grain in Chang''an City for 12 months a year was placed in front of Li Shimin''s case. The highest was 13 Wen per bucket in April and may, and the lowest was in the summer and autumn harvest, with only five Wen per bucket.


    "How unreasonable?"


    Li Shimin became more and more angry. He slammed on the heavy table. The bloody facts reported by the ink magazine in front of him made him lose his face. All along, he believed that for every five Wen in the grain price in Guanzhong, people could afford to buy food and eat. Who knew it was just a word game.


    Five Wen per bucket is only the lowest food price in Chang''an city. Merton once thought that the food price in the Tang Dynasty was very low, but after coming to the Tang Dynasty, he knew that it was definitely the historian''s beautification of Zhenguan''s rule. He just quoted a lowest price. This lowest price may still be the lowest price when the food was the lowest in the past years.


    "What about the Changping warehouse? Has the Changping warehouse I set up become a decoration?" Li Shimin roared.


    Pound said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, Changping warehouse only buys and sells grain according to the market price, and most of them are for disaster relief or loan people to plant autumn harvest."


    Changping warehouse was a place specially designed to stabilize grain prices in ancient times. It usually bought grain when the price was low and sold grain when the price was high. However, it seemed a beautiful thing. At that time, in the era of extremely closed transportation and communication, the effect was extremely limited. It could be used only in the year of major disasters or when grain prices were excessively abnormal.


    It is almost impossible to adjust grain prices in time according to the fluctuation of grain prices in the market.


    Master Li''s literary talent is very good. In a short article, a farmer''s mood from joy to despair is described incisively and vividly. People can''t help feeling sympathy after reading it. At the same time, they hate illegal grain merchants.


    Since the concept of compulsory education was mentioned, Master Li''s reputation in Chang''an City has been at its zenith. He seems to have become a big winner in the education sector. Coupled with the position of editor in chief of Ink magazine, it has added a fire out of thin air. Once it was released, it immediately exploded in Chang''an city. After all, grain prices fluctuated too much, which not only affected farmers, It also has a great impact on the urban residents of Chang''an. After all, who can save much food at home?


    In any era, food is the top priority of a country''s stability. Therefore, when Li Shimin summoned courtiers, many ministers knew Li Shimin''s intention.


    Ink periodicals are now an important source of information for all people in Chang''an city. Although officials usually get much more sources of information than ordinary people, they are still not enough to read compared with ink periodicals specially collecting information. In addition, ink periodicals are of high quality, detailed content and must be read by officials. Of course, all officials have seen Master Li''s article long ago.


    "Dear Aiqing, the emperor asked me a question today. What''s the meaning of the word ''grain cheap hurts farmers''? You are all learned people. I don''t know who Aiqing can answer for me!" Li Shimin suddenly asked a question that is well known to women and children.


    The ministers immediately understood it. It was really the matter discussed today.


    Su Lingnong, the senior minister of agriculture, immediately stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, this word comes from the book of Han Dynasty, which means that if the grain price is too low, the farmers will be damaged."


    Li Shimin immediately nodded and praised: "Su Aiqing is worthy of being a learned man. He hit the mark in one word."


    Su Lingnong smiled bitterly, so he had to cooperate with Li Shimin and said, "Weichen just abides by his duty. Naturally, he pays special attention to the knowledge related to agriculture."


    "I read Master Li''s" three or five more fights "today, and I felt a lot of emotion. The harm of cheap grain to farmers is too much, which is really painful!" Li Shimin said.


    The whole courtier was suddenly silent and couldn''t help looking at the two ministers in front, Du Yan and Wei Changde.


    Around Chang''an City, there is a joke: "Weidu in the south of the city is five feet away." the Wei and Du families are the largest landlords in Chang''an City and the largest grain merchants in Chang''an city. The grain merchants in Li Fuzi''s article are based on their two families.


    "Your Majesty, this is a matter of the previous dynasty. Naturally, such a thing will not happen in our Dynasty." Du Yan had to harden his head and said.


    Li Shimin took a swipe from the corner of his mouth and sneered: "the past does not forget the teacher of the future. Naturally, we can''t repeat the mistakes. Food is the foundation of the country and the top priority. We''d better discuss how to avoid the phenomenon of cheap grain hurting farmers in the Tang Dynasty!"


    Li Shimin''s words set the tone of the meeting, that is, to make a constitution for today''s event.

 Chapter 236

    In fact, for the whole Datang, the benefits of grain price stability are obvious. It is Baili. However, the most fundamental reason for the great resistance to the implementation is that many big landlords are often big grain merchants, especially some aristocratic families, which control the grain price of a place.


    In the court hall, many ministers are often representatives of big landlords, such as Du Yan and Wei Changde, who are also big landlords,


    Although Li Shimin has repeatedly ordered that officials above grade five are prohibited from doing business, selling the output from their fields is not business.


    Moreover, the Wei and Du families are deeply rooted in Chang''an City and have amazing power. The Du family is Du Ruhui''s family, and there are countless disciples and old officials in the dynasty. The Wei family is the family of imperial concubine Wei, and no one dares to move.


    "Tell your majesty that I think I can increase the right of regular closing positions and build more regular closing positions in all parts of the Tang Dynasty to stabilize local prices." Fang Xuanling listed.


    He was the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty. It was his responsibility to maintain the stability of grain prices. He put forward the most fundamental solution to the problem.


    "As Fang Aiqing said, this is indeed a radical cure." Li Shimin nodded and turned to Duan Lun, the Minister of industry,


    "Duan Aiqing, it''s up to your work department to build a regular closing position."


    Duan Lun replied, "yes! But the construction of constant closing positions is not done overnight. I''m afraid we can''t build many constant closing positions without three or five years."


    Building granaries is not a simple thing. It needs site selection, construction and various facilities. It can''t be built in a day or two.


    "Moreover, it costs a lot of money, plus the purchase of food, I''m afraid the imperial court can''t take so much money!" Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of people, frowned. He also knows the good thing of often closing positions, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. At this time, the financial situation is not so tight, but it is impossible to take out so much money to use often closing positions to buy grain.


    When they heard the speech, they were immediately happy, couldn''t help looking at each other, and then a look of regret appeared on their faces.


    Li Shimin was immediately silent. The lack of money was indeed a pain in everyone''s heart, even the emperor.


    Su Lingnong said, "tell your majesty, Changping warehouse is a long-term plan, but it can''t quench your thirst. If the imperial court sets a grain price, no matter what the price is, it can ensure the interests of farmers to the greatest extent."


    "No?" said Wade, startled.


    If a price is fixed, how can he and vedu make huge profits by buying grain.


    "Why not? If you set the price of grain, it will not be lower than the current price. I know that the Wei family has a lot of fields. If you can sell the grain at a good price, it will be good for you." Su Lingnong puffed his beard and glared.


    Wei changdeton secretly scolded Su Lingnong for pretending to be confused. Relying solely on grain output, where can a aristocratic family be fed? Which aristocratic family can last only by sucking blood from the people.


    Besides, not to mention aristocratic families, even ordinary landlords, who will not sell grain at the lowest price when the grain has just been hit. They hoard it for a few months, wait until the grain price rises, and then slowly sell the grain. On the contrary, ordinary farmers have no resistance and can only sell grain at a low price.


    "Lord Wei doesn''t know. If the grain price is fixed and the grain merchants are unprofitable, they naturally don''t want to buy and sell grain again. At that time, the grain in the hands of farmers can''t be sold, and the people in the city can''t buy grain, isn''t it more harmful." Du Yan is the person who later became prime minister. He saw the disadvantages mentioned by Su Lingnong at a glance and spoke to help Wei Changde out.


    "That''s true!" Su Lingnong nodded in agreement, but then said, "in that case, we might as well set a minimum and maximum grain purchase price?"


    "What is the lowest and highest grain price?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Your Majesty, the lowest grain price is the lowest price to ensure that grain merchants can buy farmers'' grain. This lowest price should ensure that farmers will not sell at a low price when they sell grain. The highest grain price is the price that grain merchants sell grain. This highest grain price is the price that people in Chang''an can bear without affecting their lives. The middle price difference is grain merchants In this way, the interests of the three parties can be guaranteed. "Su Lingnong talked freely and threw out a practical method.


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up immediately. In this way, he must be able to solve the problem perfectly. There will be no more three or five fights, nor will Gu GUI hurt the people.


    "What do you think of Aiqing?" Li Shimin shook his body and looked at the minister in the court.


    "This is good governance?" Fang Xuanling nodded immediately. In this way, coupled with the assistance of often closing positions, it must be able to ensure the stability of grain prices in Datang.


    Many ministers also figured out the joints and couldn''t help nodding and praising, especially some ministers who were not engaged in grain traders at home.


    For a moment, under the general trend, vedu and others were opposed, which would only arouse Li Shimin''s anger. After all, there was nothing more important to maintain the rule for an emperor, especially an emperor who preferred fame like Li Shimin.


    The vedu families are powerful and still weak in front of the emperor''s will.


    Su Lingnong couldn''t help smiling with relief at his speech. All along, his position as a big farmer seemed noble, but he had no real power. In the face of the suffering of the people, he did nothing. Today, if he could control the lowest and highest grain prices in the country, wouldn''t it benefit the people all over the world.


    "Unexpectedly, Lord Mo''s attention was really good!" Su Lingnong couldn''t help smiling.


    Yes, the minimum grain purchase price and the maximum grain sale price he proposed are exactly the ideas Merton gave him. Otherwise, how could he come up with such ideas with his character of bowing to the fields.


    The tone has been set, and the rest of the elite of the Tang Dynasty will not be defeated. Soon Dai Zhou has to calculate a reasonable minimum grain purchase price and maximum grain selling price.


    The lowest purchase price of the valley is seven Wen per bucket, and the highest selling price is ten Wen. The price difference of the three Wen in the middle is the profit of the grain merchant. Three Wen is already equivalent to less than half of each bucket of grain money. Even if the transportation cost is erased, the profit is still considerable. After all, the grain will eventually go by volume, not by price.


    In addition to millet, the whole court also set a new minimum purchase price and maximum selling price for wheat, sorghum and rice.


    "OK! In the future, the Tang Dynasty will take this as an example. At the time of summer harvest every year, the Da Si Nong will set the national grain price and report it to the chaotang for distribution all over the world." Li Shimin said with great joy.


    "Your Majesty, Shengming!"


    Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, the courtiers immediately agreed in unison. Of course, there were also the unwilling voices of Wei Changde and Du Yan.

 Chapter 237

    Guozijian.


    When the Guozijian students returned from their holidays, the whole Guozijian was lively. The students who made friends with each other were very excited and disappeared for a month. Naturally, it was very kind.


    Before bingshe.


    Zu Mingjun was wearing a thin shirt and stared at Merton''s T-shirt. He looked down at himself and went back and forth several times.


    "What clothes are you wearing?" asked Zu Mingjun.


    On the one hand, the purpose of the field holiday is to reflect the importance of agricultural mulberry and let students go home to experience the essence of agricultural mulberry. On the other hand, the weather has become hot, and many students need to go home and replace their summer clothes.


    Zu Mingjun just took the opportunity of the field holiday to go back to his hometown. When he came back, he found that Chang''an city had long been ruled by a new type of summer clothes - T-shirt.


    Not only Merton, but also many students who stayed in Chang''an City, which makes the ancestor Mingjun who worked hard to go home to buy new clothes feel embarrassed.


    "Don''t worry, I''ve already prepared a set for you." Qin Huaiyu said proudly.


    Now Qin Huaiyu and the three of them can be said to be satisfied. They have made great contributions to the popularity of compassionate in Chang''an city. At that time, Merton was building a swimming pool in the imperial palace. The three of them took the lead in Chang''an City and led the trend with their own strength.


    With a T-shirt, ice cream and swimming pool, Zu Mingjun enjoyed a full set of summer three treasures carefully designed by Merton, lying on the swimming pool and never remembering it again.


    "I''ll never be afraid of summer again!" Zu Mingjun shouted comfortably while lying in the pool of Mo mansion.


    Not only Zu Mingjun, but also other imperial college students. In such hot weather, no one can resist the power of the three treasures for summer vacation. For a moment, the whole Imperial College was compassionate and ruled, almost all hands.


    Tian holiday starts school, which is similar to the summer vacation of later generations. It is also the beginning of a semester.


    Every time at this time, Kong Yingda convenes the Guozijian students for routine instruction. However, this time, Kong Yingda looks at the Guozijian students angrily.


    As a child of Confucianism, in his opinion, the most perfect dress is Confucian clothes, which are neat and polite. Now most of the Guozijian students are conquered by a kind of strange clothes, and this kind of clothes is said to be made by the MOH family.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help glancing at Merton in class C. she couldn''t help but be a little stunned. She found that the Mexican family of the originator was dressed in Confucian clothes, which was particularly eye-catching among a group of T-shirt students.


    "This little catfish is really slippery." Kong Yingda scolded Merton for his cunning.


    "In the future, all the students in the Imperial College must wear Confucian clothes, or they will be severely punished." Kong Yingda had no place to vent her anger, so she had to spray it on other students.


    "Ah!"


    All the Guozijian students immediately lamented that they could realize the benefits only through their compassionate clothes, and then let them wear traditional Confucian clothes, which was like suffering. In addition, everyone usually had classes in one room, which was even worse.


    "If you can''t stand the pain, how can you serve the country?" Kong Yingda snorted coldly and roared.


    Kong Yingda holds the power of the Imperial College and holds the lifeblood of these students. Even if these students are dissatisfied, they still can''t resist.


    "You''re really cunning." Kong Yingda talked endlessly on the stage. Zu Mingjun looked contemptuously at Merton in Confucian clothes. Merton led him astray, but he put on Confucian clothes and escaped.


    Merton smiled and couldn''t help laughing. In the more than ten years of study in later generations, which student didn''t wear a school uniform and cope with the inspection on the opening day of school. As for today, it''s hard to say.


    "You don''t want to take chances. The toastmaster said nothing. Since he said it in public, he will certainly abide by it in the future." Zu Mingjun said with a sneer when he learned Merton''s intention.


    "What should we do?" Qin Huaiyu and the three of them were immediately dissatisfied. They wore a T-shirt. Who would want to wear the Confucian clothes that wrap people up.


    "The weather is so hot that if a student gets heatstroke, I don''t believe the master will have the heart to do so." Merton said as if he didn''t care.


    Chumo can''t help but give Merton a thumbs up. The three of them immediately tacitly smile.


    "You students are the future officials of the Tang Dynasty and have just returned from the field holiday. I believe you have also learned that the grain price protection order issued by your majesty himself." Kong Yingda shouted.


    He owes all his credit to Li Shimin, but he doesn''t mention the article of Master Li in Mo magazine.


    The grain price protection order is the lowest grain purchase price proposed by Su Lingnong and the highest grain selling price of grain merchants. At the same time, it assists in the regular closing of warehouses and local granaries. Once launched, the measures to protect grain prices have been cheered by countless people and have far-reaching repercussions in Chang''an City.


    "This is good governance!"


    The students of the Imperial College naturally have a keen political mind. Whether they are from a common family or a landlord family, they have to admit that this policy is of great benefit to the Tang Dynasty.


    "At the beginning of school, please obey the master''s order!" all the students immediately replied.


    Kong Yingda arranged his first class with Li Shimin''s grain price protection order. In Chang''an City, someone was also talking about the grain price protection order.


    Du Fu.


    At this time, Du''s residence was not Du Ruhui''s Laiguo mansion, but Du Yan''s residence.


    In the living room of Du mansion, Wei Changde walked around anxiously.


    "Brother Du, what should we do? If we really rely on such a price to buy food, we will work hard for those mud legs in vain." Wei Changde angrily said.


    The price of each bucket is only three Wen, and they are responsible for the transportation and storage of food. The protective price of food seems to be happy for everyone. It is really damaging the interests of these grain merchants. Although they still make a profit, it is much less than the price difference of nearly three times before. Of course, these aristocratic families don''t want to work hard, but finally let the mud legs they usually despise earn money It''s cheap.


    "Your Majesty has issued a decree, and we will naturally follow it." Du Yan said reluctantly. At this time, the ship is done, and the emperor has printed and distributed this order all over the world. Naturally, it is impossible to change it.


    Wei Changde opened his mouth and couldn''t speak at once. Although they usually dared to speak out with Li Shimin, Li Shimin naturally wouldn''t care about him on the basis of checking the deficiencies and filling up the loopholes for the Tang Dynasty, but if someone dared to do something that would endanger the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin was not a kind-hearted person. He was an emperor who fought in the army all his life.


    "I can warn you that if you dare to do something about the food price, even Princess Wei may not save you." Du Yan warned that the biggest reason why Wei Changde can hold the position of the head of the Wei family is that he is Princess Wei''s brother.


    Wei changdeton turned pale, shook his head and said, "that''s natural, but your majesty can control the price of grain we buy, but can''t control whether we receive grain."


    Du Yan''s eyes flashed and blurted out, "do you mean that the Weidu family will not buy grain this time?"


    Wei Changde smiled and said, "it''s not just you and me, but many families!"


    The grain price protection order directly squeezed the profits of grain merchants. Of course, these people refused to obediently obey. Since they could not resist directly, they had to be treated negatively.

 Chapter 238

    men tilling the farm and womenweaving!


    Work at sunrise and rest at sunset.


    Stay indoors at night and find nothing on the road.


    This was the most ideal social situation in ancient society and the greatest expectation of emperors of all dynasties for farmers. However, it was never the real farmers who came up with this ideal realm.


    On the contrary, no matter in any era, few ordinary farmers want to dig from the land and get rich.


    Even in the Zhenguan Dynasty, which is known as the Qingming Dynasty of official administration, the phenomenon of overcharging three or five Dou still exists. In addition, the taxes and corvee that farmers have to bear are just to be able to eat and wear. Rao is so, but it has been done by the Ming king.


    Therefore, when the grain price protection order issued by Li Shimin was transmitted to all counties in Guanzhong, almost all farmers couldn''t help cheering and cheering, with seven Wen per bucket of grain. I''m afraid this is the highest grain purchase price over the years!


    In front of an ordinary farmer.


    "Son of a bitch, watch your home and come back when you sell food for your husband." the black faced Guanzhong man shouted to the woman who was feeding chickens and ducks.


    Beside him, an ox cart was carrying a load of grain, and his 13-year-old son was helping him tie hemp rope and fix the grain.


    Although this year''s grain was affected, but later there was well killing and continuous irrigation for several times, the grain production did not decrease, but increased a lot!


    In addition to the taxes paid and the standing grain at home, he reserved some grain for feeding chickens and ducks. This truck of grain is what he is going to sell.


    This year''s grain price is as low as seven Wen per bucket. The black faced man calculated that although the grain sold this year is less than that in previous years, the grain price is high, but it sells a lot more money than that in previous years, which must be able to buy a lot of things for the family.


    "Go and get back!" the woman got up and waved to her husband and son, revealing a young and frosty face, which was obviously the result of perennial work.


    Seeing that the grass in the chicken coop has been eaten up, I sprinkle a handful of wheat crushed during the summer harvest into the chickens and ducks. Although it is summer, there is a lot of grass and there is no lack of food source, these chickens and ducks are at the peak of egg production and need to supplement nutrition. At this time, feeding poultry food does not suffer at all.


    "Drive!"


    The black faced man shouted loudly, and the ox cart moved slowly. In order to reduce the pressure of the cow, the father and son walked on foot. When they met uneven places, they pushed the cart hard. The cow was borrowed, and if it was damaged, they couldn''t afford to pay for it.


    The black faced man''s first choice is the nearest Wei family grain store. In the past, he sold grain to Wei family grain store every year.


    The Wei family is a well-known good family in Chang''an City, but there are many senior officials in the family. During the slack season, the black faced man will come to the Wei family to help work and get enough food every time.


    Although the housekeeper and servants of the Wei family were hateful, they did not damage the reputation of the Wei family.


    "Dad! It''s Wei Lai!" the son saw a man with sharp mouth and monkey cheeks at the door of Wei''s grain store, and whispered to his father.


    Wei Lai is not called this name. He is a steward of the Wei family. He is usually mean and flattering to his master. However, he treats ordinary farmers with vicious remarks and withholding wages. He is very unbearable, so everyone calls him Wei Lai behind his back.


    "Don''t talk nonsense, ask Wei to take charge!" the black faced man scolded his son and greeted him with a smile.


    "Steward Wei, the villain came to sell food today and asked steward Wei to open his eyes." the black faced man came forward and begged, but he knew that Wei Lai was a villain who would repay him. He didn''t retaliate against anyone who offended him in private.


    "It''s you two black goods! Go back! Wei''s grain store won''t accept grain this year." Wei Lai squinted at the black faced man and said.


    The skin of the black faced man is as dark as that of his father and son. Steward Wei is extremely rude to say so. The black faced man pulled his angry son and flattered him: "steward Wei is joking. The Wei family''s grain store has been collecting grain for more than ten years. The villains have sold their grain to the Wei family. How can they not accept it?"


    It has the final say that you can''t accept it, or I have to say what I have said, but the boss of Changan has the final say. The master has already passed the message. This year Wei family has no intention of collecting grain. Do you see that everyone else has gone back? "


    The black faced man looked at his load of grain in embarrassment. In this era, there are no convenient transportation conditions. It''s not easy to come here. Many families don''t even have flat carts and carry them on their shoulders.


    "Steward Wei, please be kind and the price is easy to discuss. These are all first-class good food." the black faced man begged.


    In this era, good food is used to pay taxes, the worst food is used for their own consumption, and the food used to sell is also superior food.


    "It''s not the price. It''s the fact that the Wei family doesn''t accept grain anymore." Wei Lai said impatiently.


    "Steward Du, what do you think of five cents for every bucket of grain?" the black faced man clenched his teeth and said. He knew that the biggest problem was the price. In the past, the Wei family didn''t say they wouldn''t accept grain when they paid five cents for every bucket of grain. Now his majesty issued a grain price protection order. The Wei family immediately announced that they wouldn''t accept grain, and the black faced man reduced five cents for every bucket, I just want to sell this grain at a high price as soon as possible. It costs 6.5 per bucket, which is a lot more than before.


    Wei Lai immediately blew his beard and glared and said, "are you trying to frame the Wei family for injustice? The Wei family is a famous family of poetry and etiquette. How can you disobey the emperor''s order."


    No matter what the black faced man said, the Wei family was still determined not to receive food. However, the black faced father and son had to pull the food away. There are also many farmers who have heard of the rise in grain prices and come to sell grain in high spirits.


    When all the farmers had left, Wei Lai groaned and entered the Wei family''s grain store.


    "Shopkeeper, everyone has gone!" Wei Lai saluted a middle-aged shopkeeper in his forties, who was the shopkeeper of Wei''s grain store.


    "Well, you did a good job. If there are people selling grain in the future, they will do so." shopkeeper Wei nodded.


    Du laipi hesitated and said, "shopkeeper, what if these mud legs go to other houses to sell grain?"


    Shopkeeper Wei snorted coldly, "don''t worry. I can''t guarantee anywhere else. It''s in the south of Chang''an city. I can guarantee that no grain merchant will receive grain."


    With the joint efforts of the two families, naturally, few grain merchants dared to offend them. Moreover, the grain price suddenly went up the hoop curse, and the grain merchants naturally didn''t want to, so they went down the slope.


    The matter was indeed like what steward Wei said. The black faced father and son ran around with grain. There was no grain store to buy grain in the south of Chang''an city.


    For a while, most grain merchants around Chang''an City were watching, and a large amount of grain was overstocked in the hands of farmers.

 Chapter 239

    "Dad, what should I do?" the weather was very hot. The black faced man and his son hid in the shade of the tree to cool off. His son ate a pancake and looked at the car full of food with a sad face.


    "There''s nothing terrible about this. If we can''t sell the food, we''ll keep it for us to eat." the black faced man said boldly, but a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.


    It was exciting to hear your Majesty''s grain price protection order, but it won''t be an empty joy in the end!


    At this time, a transport team from Mojia village rushed to Chang''an City from south to north. The leader was a strong man in his twenties, who was Li Xin.


    Seeing the black faced father and son sitting on the road, Li Xin couldn''t help saying, "you two want to sell food?"


    The son of the black faced man said first, "it''s a pity that all grain stores don''t accept grain."


    Li Xin laughed and said, "you didn''t find the right place. Mojia village in the South bought a lot of grain."


    "Seriously?" the black faced man was pleasantly surprised. He didn''t expect such a turnaround at the most desperate moment.


    "That''s natural. We are the transportation team of Mojia village." Li Xin said proudly.


    The black faced man immediately believed for a few minutes. Recently, Mojia village became famous in Chang''an City, and suddenly became rich. In addition, the children of Mojia village walked around the streets selling chicken, duck and goose cubs. Their own poultry is the cubs of Mojia village.


    "I don''t know how much the grain price is?" the black faced man asked.


    "Of course, it''s seven Wen per bucket, and all of them are official fights to ensure that children and old people are not deceived," Li Xin said.


    Official fight is a measuring tool officially released by the imperial court. Naturally, it is extremely accurate, but there will be no big fight in and small fight out.


    When the father and son heard the speech, they immediately drove to Mojia village.


    The news that Mojia village bought grain for seven Wen per bucket spread all over the south of Chang''an city. Like the black faced man, there were many farmers who could not sell grain. After receiving the news, they quickly flocked to Mojia village.


    "The price is reasonable, seven Wen per bucket."


    "Children and old people are honest, fair and just. They use standard official fighting!"


    "And cash settlement!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After returning to the village after selling grain, farmers like black faced men soon spread the news all over the village, and soon more farmers went to Mojia village to sell grain.


    "The shopkeeper is bad! The Mojia village has received food." Wei Lai reported to shopkeeper Wei in a panic.


    Shopkeeper Wei suddenly looked ugly. He was confident that no one in the south of Chang''an dared to violate the Weidu family, but this Mojia village was an exception.


    The Mohist family is in the middle of the sun in Chang''an city. The Mohist family is in the limelight. This time, the food price soared, which was made by the Mohist family. In addition, some time ago, Du he, the second young master of the Du family, returned to the Du family''s old house from Chang''an City, but it spread all over the south of Chang''an city. It is said that the biggest reason is to offend the Mohist family.


    "Don''t worry, the food in Mojia village hasn''t been enough to eat. It has become a routine to buy food every year. When Mojia village has bought enough food, it will not buy it. Say how much food a small Mojia village can buy." shopkeeper Wei thought for a moment and said,


    Of course, he did not forget to report it to the masters of Chang''an city. The affairs of the Mohist school could not be managed by a manager.


    Soon, the news of Chang''an city came. Don''t provoke Mojia village for the time being. After all, Mojia village has ink magazines. If the Mojia village explodes, the Weidu two families will have a lot of trouble if they don''t let others buy it.


    However, three days later, Mojia village is still buying grain wantonly, and an endless stream of farmers pull grain every day.


    "What''s the matter with Mojia village? These grains are enough for them to eat until the new year. How can they not be satisfied?" shopkeeper Wei frowned.


    Wei Lai wiped the Khan and said, "if you go back to the shopkeeper, the villain has explored it several times. Village head Li of Mojia village said that the land in Mojia village has not been cultivated in rotation in recent years. This year, he is going to buy more grain and rotate one-third of the land in the village."


    Shopkeeper Wei took a long breath and held back his anger.


    Three days later, the grain collection work in Mojia village was still not over, and the grain purchase was still open.


    "Mojia village said that they would recruit large-scale workers in the second half of the year, and the workers in Mojia village are in charge of food." Wei Lai swallowed a spit and said carefully,.


    Even he couldn''t believe such a statement. No matter how many workers are recruited, they can''t use these grains.


    "Mojia village is really not afraid to offend our Weidu family." shopkeeper Wei has been furious and said viciously.


    Even if there is more food demand in Mojia village, shopkeeper Wei doesn''t want to believe it anymore, because Mojia village has seriously damaged the prestige of the Weidu family.


    "Shopkeeper, there are already many grain merchants who can''t stand it. They come to ask for countermeasures." Wei Lai said anxiously.


    Now many grain traders have put pressure on them. They don''t accept grain here, and a large amount of grain flows to Mojia village, and they can only worry.


    "Tell those grain merchants that, according to my estimation, the money in Mojia village is almost enough, so they don''t have to worry." shopkeeper Wei said.


    Although there is not much grain that farmers can sell now, the grain of each household is not a small number. Mojia village has made a lot of money, and how much food can it buy?


    "Shopkeeper''s wisdom!" Willington wanted to understand the joints and quickly complimented.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Shopkeeper Wei guessed well. Mojia village really doesn''t have much money. This time, Mojia village has emptied all its cash to buy food.


    "Young master, there is no money in Mojia village!"


    In the Mo mansion, Li Yi said with both joy and sorrow.


    As a farmer who spent half his life digging in the soil, Li Yi was filled with joy when he saw a full warehouse of grain. Not only that, but even all the villagers of Mojia village strongly supported the purchase of grain.


    In this era, food is the biggest hard currency. The poor life before makes the people of Mohist village have a paranoid pursuit of food.


    "If you have no money, go find Mr. Xu!" Merton smiled and pointed at Uncle Li''s back.


    Li Yi hurried back and found that Xu Jie''s tired face appeared behind him.


    "Didn''t brother Xu go to Luoyang?" Li Yi said in surprise.


    "Heard that shopkeeper Li needed money, Xu came back from Luoyang to give money to brother Li." Xu Jie said with a smile on his face.


    "Send money?" Li Yi was shocked. He looked up at Xu Jie and asked Xu Jie to send it back in person. Naturally, it was not a small amount.


    "Mr. Xu made a lot of money in Luoyang City, only a lot more than in Chang''an city!" Merton said happily.


    Luoyang is indeed a vast market. In addition, it is the midpoint of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal. There are countless businessmen. The products of Mojia village sell well naturally. Coupled with the brewing and indirect publicity of Chang''an City, there are a large number of orders in a short time.


    "The owner is flattered. Xu is just running errands." Xu Jie said modestly. Although the products of Mojia village are really good, Xu Jie''s efforts in it are indispensable.


    When he arrived in Chang''an City, Xu Jie used his previous business relations to open up the market as quickly as possible.


    "Now that Mojia village has money, it will continue to buy food openly." Merton waved his big hand.

 Chapter 240

    "Open grain collection!"


    Li Yi immediately exclaimed, you should know that the food purchased by Mojia village has been quite a lot, enough for the use of Mojia village. If you buy food in an open supply, wouldn''t you offend the Weidu family to death? You should know that the Weidu family are powerful in Chang''an city!


    "The owner should think twice!"


    Xu Jie also advised that it was inappropriate for Merton to offend the Wei and Du families. The Mohists really shouldn''t establish too many enemies, especially the Wei and Du families, the local snakes in Chang''an city.


    Merton also smiled bitterly. If possible, he certainly wouldn''t offend the Wadu family, but he couldn''t help causing the current rise in food prices.


    If he doesn''t take the initiative to collect food, it will ruin the reputation of the Mohist family. Moreover, the Mohist village collects a large amount of food with his own consideration.


    "Is Mojia village interested in running grain stores?" Xu jeruo thought.


    Merton shook his head and denied, "Mr. Xu is worried too much. The Mohists must focus on industry and commerce. Of course, they will not participate in the business of grain banks."


    "Why?" Li Yi and Xu Jie couldn''t touch their heads.


    Merton explained: "the grain output of Mojia village is low. It is inevitable to sell grain to takeout. Moreover, with more and more workers in the future, if Mojia village wants to develop stably, it must have a large amount of grain reserves."


    Merton''s positioning for Mojia village is to develop into an industrialized town, and the fields will be gradually occupied in the future. Therefore, a strong grain reserve can ensure the stable development of Mojia village.


    Xu jiedun nodded thoughtfully and agreed with Merton''s point of view. Since grain should be stored sooner or later, the sooner the better.


    "As you can see, how much food should the Mojia village buy?" Li Yi frowned.


    "We should be able to ensure that all people in Mojia village, including migrant workers, will be carefree for three years when there is no income in Mojia village." Merton broke an amazing figure.


    "Ah! So many!" Li Yi suddenly opened his mouth, and Xu Jie couldn''t help but be shocked by Merton''s foresight and great pen. If so, it can be said that the Mojia village has no worries and just needs to focus on development.


    "The population of Mojia village will increase in the future, and the grain reserves will increase accordingly," Merton added.


    Obviously, the population of Mojia village will continue to increase in the future, and the corresponding grain reserves will naturally triple.


    "If so, I''m afraid the Mohists will offend the Weidu family this time." Li Yi said bitterly.


    "Even if you offend me, you should do so. You know, after your majesty issued the grain price protection order this time, it''s not that grain is not collected in the south of Chang''an City, and the grain merchants in Guanzhong are watching. A large number of farmers have a backlog of grain in their hands. What our Mojia village needs to do is to break this situation." Merton said another amazing news.


    According to the news from the children of the Mohists who collected information from Mo magazine, the grain merchants in the whole Guanzhong area are passively resisting the grain price protection order. This order was implemented because they offered advice to Su Lingnong, so the Mohists naturally became the first sheep.


    As long as the grain merchants in the south of Chang''an can''t carry it, the unstable alliance of grain merchants in Guanzhong will naturally collapse like dominoes. If the grain price protection order is implemented smoothly this time, it will be unimpeded in the future.


    Xu Jie suddenly realized that grain reserves could not be built twice at a time. If Mojia village established grain reserves, it would not be so anxious.


    "Besides, the foundation of Mojia village is in the south of Chang''an city. Only when farmers have money can they buy the products of Mojia village," Merton said.


    Li Yi immediately smiled and said, "what the young master said is very true. After selling grain, many farmers directly bought chicken, pot tools and farm tools from Mojia village. These Mojia villages have sold a lot of things these days. Otherwise, the money of Mojia village can''t support the purchase of grain for so many days.


    Merton nodded. Most of the products of Mojia village are for the public. Only more and more people can afford the products of Mojia village, which is the key to the rise of Mojia village.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Shopkeeper Wei has been paying attention to the grain purchase of Mojia village these days. When he learned that Mojia village still continues to purchase, he suddenly flew into a rage.


    "Where did the Mohist village get so much money!" roared shopkeeper Wei. The Mohist continued to buy, which made him very passive. If it hadn''t been for the prestige of the Weidu family, the loose alliance of grain merchants would have been in danger of falling apart.


    Wei Lai said with a mournful face, "it is said that the foreign affairs manager of Mojia village brought back a lot of money from Luoyang."


    "Xu Caishen!" shopkeeper Wei immediately felt a great hatred in his heart. Naturally, he also knew the legend of Chang''an City, but he didn''t expect that Xu Jie, who was down to the extreme, would have a chance to turn over and cause him so much trouble.


    "Moreover, after those mud legs sold grain, they bought things from Mojia village and took them back. In this way, some money returned to Mojia village."


    "Mojia village can do business," said shopkeeper Wei angrily. For Mojia village, the money came out of the left hand and into the right hand. It not only collected food, but also sold things.


    "Shopkeeper, what should I do?" asked Willy.


    "Don''t worry, the master already has countermeasures." shopkeeper Wei sneered at the anger in his heart.


    "Countermeasures?" Wei Lai wondered.


    "Only those mud legs have much food. Doesn''t Mojia village want to buy food? Let''s sell it to the Wei family! Not only the Wei family, but also the Du family," said shopkeeper Wei insidiously.


    In this era, the surplus grain that ordinary farmers can produce is not much left. The real big grain households are those landowners. They have a lot of land and charge a lot of land rent. Naturally, they can sell a lot of grain.


    "The master''s attention is really wonderful!" Wei Lai exclaimed.


    Shopkeeper Wei is very proud at once. Isn''t Mojia village open to purchase? Then sell them a large amount of grain from the Weidu family to see how much money you have in Mojia village.


    Wei Lai tilted his head and blurted out a bad idea: "there are many ghost ideas in Mojia village. For insurance, if we don''t let the landlords in the south of the city sell grain in Mojia village, even if there are gold and silver mines in Mojia village, I''m afraid we can''t get so much money.


    Shopkeeper Wei immediately laughed and said, "you still have many ghost ideas. Good! You will come forward. I believe these landlords in the south of the city will certainly give face to the Wei family."


    The vedu family is the leader of the big landlords in Chang''an city. It has been deeply rooted for generations. Relying solely on the small matter of selling grain, these landlords will not reject the face of the vedu family. Suddenly, a large number of grain poured into Mojia village.

 Chapter 241

    Li Yi didn''t expect that the counterattack of the two families came so fast. Looking at the convoy like a long dragon, Li Yi couldn''t help swallowing and spitting.


    "Brother Li, I''ve heard that the food price here in Mojia village is high. I''ll sell the food today. Brother Li won''t refuse it!" shopkeeper Wei took the team himself and said proudly to Li Yi.


    Li Yi looked at the four-wheel trucks produced by his family. For the first time, he hated that the quality of his trucks was too good and the carrying capacity was too large. I''m afraid the grain in this truck was no less than a few thousand kilograms!


    "That''s natural, but Mojia village doesn''t accept old grain, just new grain this year!" Li Yi saw the quality of the grain on the carriage and suddenly had an idea.


    As soon as Li Yi''s voice fell, several landlords twinkled in their eyes. As soon as the new grain came down, many landlords took out the old grain in their granary, some even for several years.


    "Why? Can''t old grain be eaten?" shopkeeper Wei apologized while hating these pig teammates for dragging their feet.


    "No! We don''t buy grain in Mojia village to sell, but to store it for our own use. We need to store it. Naturally, we need new grain," Li Yi said.


    Li Yi''s words suddenly brightened the eyes of many grain merchants who followed him. They always believed that the reason why Mojia village collected grain wantonly was to get involved in the grain merchant business and compete for business for them. In this way, it was an injustice to Mojia village.


    "Then why do you continue to buy after you have collected so much grain?" a grain merchant asked discontentedly.


    Li Yi immediately said with compassion: "now many grain merchants don''t accept grain. Many farmers are in urgent need of money. They are all villagers. Do you think our Mojia village can be ruthless?"


    "Or the benevolence and righteousness of Mojia village!"


    As a result, many farmers who came to sell grain shouted good. When they were desperate, Mojia village finally helped them. Of course, they said that Mojia village was good.


    Shopkeeper Wei and the grain merchants hated each other. If your Mojia village hadn''t made trouble in it, the grain price might have gone down. How could they not accept grain.


    At Li Yi''s inspiration, more than half of the old grain was immediately returned. Mojia village readily purchased the rest of the grain and settled it with cash. However, shopkeeper Wei and others took all the money and didn''t mean to buy Mojia village products at all.


    The next day, shopkeeper Wei brought a long convoy to sell grain, and Mojia village received all the orders again.


    On the third day, shopkeeper Wei and others came to sell food again. Mojia village still received all the food according to the order.


    A large amount of money flowed out, and carts of grain poured into Mojia village. When the granary was full, it was deposited into the Mojia house and the villagers'' homes in Mojia village, and then worked overtime to build the granary at the same time.


    The two sides are in such a stalemate. They are all competing for patience and financial resources.


    "I can guarantee that there will be absolutely no cash in Mojia village after today."


    On the seventh day, shopkeeper Wei stood next to the motorcade and promised loudly to a group of tired landlord grain merchants. While the grain merchants were full of anxiety, they finally came to the dawn of victory with a trace of excitement. Although they were nearly half a month late, it was worth it.


    The facts proved that shopkeeper Wei''s guess was correct. Mojia village did not have much money. In just seven days, the huge wealth brought back by Xu Jie from Chang''an City consumed almost the same, and it was impossible to buy food.


    "Report to the young master? What does the young master say?" Li Yi asked anxiously to Li Xin who had just come back from Chang''an.


    Li Xin took a breath and drank a bowl of tea. Then he replied, "the young master said, I see!"


    "Got it?" Li Yi was stunned.


    "Young master, do you have any other orders?" Li Yi asked again.


    Li Xin looked back confidently and finally nodded exactly.


    "Hoo!"


    Li Yi immediately felt relieved. If so, it would mean that Merton had already made up his mind.


    "Father, what about the Wei family?" Li Xin said anxiously.


    Li Yi pondered for a moment and resolutely said, "continue to collect."


    Shopkeeper Wei looked at Li Yi who came out of Mojia village and couldn''t help showing a proud smile. This time, he was sure that Mojia village was indeed the end of a powerful crossbow.


    However, he did not know that another wealth storm was about to begin in Chang''an city.


    Fish champion downstairs.


    The luxurious four-wheel carriages produced by Mojia village gathered together. One by one, the rich businessmen ranked No. 1 from Chang''an city got down from the carriage and went straight to Xu Jie waiting at the door of the fish champion building.


    "Brother Xu, long time no see?" a tall middle-aged man in linen clothes bowed his hands.


    "Brother Zheng! Nice to meet you!"


    Xu Jie quickly replied that his name was Zheng Xuanli. He was a famous rich man in Chang''an city. He had a wealth of money and ran the silk business. His shops were all over the Tang Dynasty, but he was extremely frugal. If he walked on the street, no one would have expected that he was a famous rich man.


    "Brother Xu, Mojia village is a big hand recently!" Zheng Xuanli complimented.


    "Brother Zheng laughed, but he just bought more grain to be prepared." Xu Jie said modestly.


    "It''s good to buy food. If you have food in your hand, don''t panic!" Zheng Xuanli said with meaning. After a few simple words, he entered the fish champion building.


    Then, Xu Jie greeted the giant merchants who came to greet him one by one. These people were all giants in Chang''an city with profound details.


    In addition, many Hu merchants also heard the news. Many of these Hu merchants often walk the Silk Road and are rich.


    Famous tycoons in Chang''an City gathered in the yuzhuangyuan building one after another. If ordinary people were here, they would shout loudly that the combined wealth of these people was invincible. I don''t know how they all suddenly gathered in the yuzhuangyuan building.


    At the moment, a large number of ice basins are placed in the fish champion building. The temperature in the whole fish champion building is cool and appropriate. Compared with the hot outside, it is just like heaven and earth.


    In the yuzhuangyuan building, plates of delicacies carefully prepared by the yuzhuangyuan building are placed in front of each table. The names of rich businessmen are placed around the table. The rich businessmen who come here sit down in their own positions. However, each of these people is not in front of these delicacies. They sit in their own positions and are silently calculating in their hearts, At the same time, he quietly looked at the rich businessmen who came together.


    "Thank you for coming. Xu is very grateful." Xu Jie got up and said loudly.


    "Brother Xu is putting gold on his face now. We are all hooked by the wine." Zheng Xuanli joked loudly.


    Suddenly, many rich businessmen laughed in good faith. The reason why they gathered in the yuzhuangyuan building today was that Xu Jie sent people to the East and West cities. All the rich businessmen who ranked in the number gave each one a bottle of wine, and then met with yuzhuangyuan building, saying that there was a great deal of business to talk about.


    Xu Jie also immediately smiled and said, "in that case, come and serve wine!"


    All of a sudden, the guys in the fish champion building brought a pot of wine and put it on the people''s table. Suddenly, a strong smell of wine spread all over the fish champion building.


    This wine is a highly distilled wine specially prepared by Merton for Merton hospital.

 Chapter 242

    Mohism has medicine that can relieve thousands of worries.


    This sentence has been widely spread in Chang''an city,


    What a pity! Most of the Mohist wine is directly supplied to the Mohist hospital for medical use. In this era when there is no disinfectant, the effect of high alcohol is better than willow water, which is convenient and easy to use, and the effect is remarkable.


    Mo hospital is becoming more and more popular, and the role of wine is indispensable. Aware of this, Hua Lao and Sun Simiao more strictly control the alcohol in Mo hospital and don''t give anyone a chance at all.


    However, Li Shimin and Qin Qiong are the biggest loopholes. These four people don''t take less wine from the Mohist house. In addition, Master Li, who is addicted to alcohol, others don''t say that Cheng Yaojin, who loves to show off, has made the Mohist''s high wine famous in Chang''an city. Coupled with some human contacts, naturally some good wine will be revealed to the outside world.


    However, the less wine revealed, the greater the reputation of Mohist wine. Whenever someone has the honor to taste it, they are shocked. Even many people resolutely refuse to admit that it is wine, but a kind of medicine, a good medicine to solve thousands of worries when drunk.


    Therefore, Chang''an wine industry calls Mohist wine "relieving thousands of worries".


    Once a wealthy businessman who was addicted to alcohol went to Mo hospital with a lot of money to buy a jar to solve Qianchou. As a result, he was directly kicked out by Hua Lao. For a moment, it became a joke in Chang''an City, which further promoted the reputation of understanding Qianchou.


    The biggest reason why so many rich businessmen gathered in the champion building is that Xu Jie once sent a bottle to solve thousands of worries at your house yesterday and said frankly that valuable business needs to be discussed. These rich businessmen naturally gathered here.


    Businessmen pursue profits and have a keen sense of smell. When such a bottle of wine has never been sold on the market and has a high reputation, it is a great business opportunity!


    Xu Jie looked around for a week and sighed in his heart that at his most brilliant time, there were not so many Haoshang rings. He didn''t expect to reach the peak of his life in less than half a year in Mojia village.


    "I believe you have tasted the good wine of Mojia village yesterday. Can you give me some advice?" Xu Jie said.


    "Brother Xu is too modest. Mohist wine can relieve thousands of worries. He deserves the reputation of Chang''an city. I had a good time and got drunk yesterday. If it hadn''t been arranged earlier, I would have missed today''s event by shouting Zheng this morning." Zheng Xuanli laughed. He is also a wine lover. He can''t wait to get such good wine.


    Everyone also smiled. Since they were able to come to today''s event, they naturally tasted it in person to solve thousands of worries. Some even invited special wine tasters. They were full of praise and said frankly that it was of immeasurable value.


    Otherwise, in their capacity, how can they be free and have a party here.


    "It must be more than enough. How about another drink today?" Xu Jie raised his glass and invited.


    "Drink holy!" people will naturally give Xu Jie face, raise their glasses and drink it up.


    "Good wine!"


    Even if you have drunk this wine yesterday, when people drink another cup today, it is still a sigh..


    "Once this wine comes out, there is no taste in drinking other wine." Zheng Xuanli put down his glass and exclaimed.


    Although this remark was suspected of lifting the prestige of Mohism, the people did not refute it at all. After all, in this common wine of more than 20 degrees, after a good wine of 40 or 50 degrees suddenly appeared, it was simply stand out from the crowd.


    In addition, Mohist wine is not only mellow and fragrant, but also as clear as water and crystal clear. It is also the best in the wine.


    After they had a drink, even the greedy people put down their glasses, because everyone knew that it was time to talk about business.


    Xu Jie put down his glass and didn''t sit down. With a gesture, a Mohist child immediately handed her a beautifully packaged carton.


    Xu Jie unpacked the wine bottle imitated by the Mohist School and took out a brand-new bottle to solve Qianchou. He explained: "everyone, although this wine is beautiful, its original purpose is not to drink, but a medicine prepared by the owner for the Mohist hospital."


    "Later, after the wrong circumstances, the solution of thousands of worries spread in Chang''an city. Many people came and returned disappointed. Many people were different and asked why the Mohist school had such good wine."


    Xu Jie asked himself, and immediately hooked up everyone''s appetite.


    Indeed, with their eyes, they can naturally see the huge commercial value of solving thousands of worries. They don''t think that the Mohist who created such a great wealth miracle can''t see it. Besides, isn''t there a god of wealth here.


    It''s really a wonder that people don''t take huge wealth. These people who have been floating in the business world for many years think they can''t do this.


    "That''s because the food consumed in brewing this wine is extremely amazing, which is more than several times that of ordinary wine. There has always been a shortage of food in Guanzhong. If you make wine wantonly, it will inevitably lead to a shortage of food in Guanzhong and affect people''s daily use, which is inconsistent with the concept of Mohism," Xu Jie explained.


    Zheng Xuanli immediately sighed: "Lord Mo is benevolent and righteous!"


    Other businessmen also nodded one after another. It is really impossible for ordinary people to give up such a huge amount of wealth for the sake of Mohist ideas.


    "Now, with the new agricultural tools, new water tankers, drought resistance methods produced by the Mohists, and the experimental field in the south of the city, I believe that there will be no more worries about grain in Guanzhong this autumn," Xu Jie said enthusiastically.


    Everyone nodded and had to say that the Mohist school has now brought revolutionary reforms to agriculture, especially the method of drought resistance, and large-scale grain increase can be expected.


    "Of course, the most important thing is that now there is no shortage of food in Mojia village." Xu Jie added with self mockery.


    The crowd immediately burst into laughter. The confrontation between the Mohist stronghold and Chang''an grain merchants had already been spread in Chang''an city. Many people were laughing at the Mohist village''s overestimation.


    Because every grain merchant has a profound background, it is not the upstart like Mojia village who can compete.


    However, after seeing today''s amazing solution to thousands of worries, I''m afraid that the food purchased by Mohist Zi is not enough.


    With such good wine, coupled with the huge amount of food in Mojia village, the wine is good and the output is guaranteed. Everyone suddenly became cheerful and immediately saw that Xu Jie had a deeper meaning.


    If the food dispute is also calculated, Xu Jie can not be underestimated. However, there is also a possibility that the Mohist school has the card to solve thousands of worries, so it is unscrupulous to buy food on a large scale.


    "When I invite you to come today, I want to invite you to have a taste of wine, and I want to seek cooperation with your predecessors," Xu Jie said loudly.


    "Brother Xu, let''s see. How much wine can Mojia village produce? Zheng has it all!" Zheng Xuanli said boldly.

 Chapter 243

    "Brother Zheng is eating alone now. Brother Xu invited me to come. It''s natural to have rain and dew." a thin old man in royal clothes shook his head and said.


    This man is the owner of the Qian family. His pawn shop has spread all over the Tang Dynasty. He is a famous rich man in Chang''an city.


    "Yes, yes!"


    One after another, a number of wealthy businessmen are in line with the money family owners. Which one can be invited to the fish champion building by the Mohist school is not a business giant. Naturally, we can see the high profits in solving thousands of worries. This is a business that can make no loss.


    Xu Jie couldn''t help smiling when he saw the scene of competition.


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Xu invited you today to cooperate with you, but the way of cooperation is not to sell wine to you, but to adopt a new way." Xu Jie said.


    "A new way?" they were stunned.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "there are ten roads in Datang. Mojia village is going to choose a dealer in each road. This dealer can sell exclusively in this area to solve thousands of worries."


    As soon as many people''s eyes lit up, they immediately felt that this idea was very wonderful. In this way, they could avoid internal strife among luxury businessmen and strive to maximize profits.


    "Hehe? Mr. Xu is really a commercial genius. He can think of such a wonderful attention!" Zheng Xuanli sighed.


    Before that, the business model before Datang was naturally a swarm of bees. Where the profits were high, they went everywhere, and the competition was extremely cruel.


    This dealer system can be described as a great initiative of the business community. In this way, the solution of Qianchou in Mojia village can certainly be sold to the whole Datang in the shortest time by the hands of the luxury businessmen present. After all, even the most remote Lingnan road can certainly make a lot of money as long as it is an exclusive agent.


    Xu Jie smiled bitterly. This is not his attention. When Merton told him this method, he was like being enlightened, but this is not the time to say this.


    "What if someone sells across the border?" a 30-year-old businessman surnamed Lu asked everyone''s voice. Everyone is human. Naturally, you can hear what Xu Jie thinks. Since you enjoy exclusive sales in this area, you can''t cross the border.


    But in this world, there are always a few unruly people in front of interests.


    "This is the next problem mentioned below. All dealers must pay a deposit of 5000 yuan. If they find a breach of contract, they will be punished. What''s more, they will directly cancel the distribution contract, which will be written in the contract," Xu Jie explained.


    "Five thousand Guan?" the merchants frowned slightly. Five thousand Guan is not a small amount.


    "There are too many five thousand passes! I heard that Mojia village is very nervous about cash recently!" the Qian family leader said in a strange way. Although he can''t get five thousand passes, he doesn''t want to be manipulated by Mojia village.


    The merchants were stunned. The Mohists are in urgent need of money to buy food. I don''t think they want to raise money from them in this way.


    Xu Jie was not angry, but said with a smile: "the deposit system is the basis of mutual trust. In addition, the Mohists can produce enough wine supply only if they buy more food. Moreover, if you don''t want to renew the contract after the end of the contract, these deposits will naturally be returned intact."


    Xu Jie did not hide the purpose of Mojia village to circle money, but on the contrary, if Mojia village was not short of money, how could such good things fall on them.


    The people were a little relieved. With the current momentum of Mojia village, the 5000 Grand Slam was not put on the Mojia village. After all, just a four-wheel carriage made the money in Mojia village overflow.


    "You guys, do you know the pricing of Mojia village for solving thousands of worries?" Xu Jie asked, and then asked himself and answered.


    "Money!"


    "An altar?" asked Qian.


    Xu Jie shook his head, pointed to the bottle in front of the crowd and said, "a bottle!"


    Suddenly everyone was in an uproar. It''s too expensive! A bottle of wine for relieving thousands of worries is only about one kilogram. It has a consistent value. It is comparable to liquid gold!


    "Expensive?" Xu Jie asked again.


    The crowd suddenly became silent. They had already tasted it. Of course, there was no wine on the market to compete with it. Money was always expensive for ordinary people, but for them, drinking was identity, and the higher the price, the greater their future profits.


    In this way, five thousand Guan is just five thousand bottles of wine. Naturally, it doesn''t count. It''s a big territory of the Tang Dynasty. It doesn''t need to be reminded by others how big the market is!


    But the problem comes again. Datang has a total of ten, that is to say, Mojia village will only cooperate with ten dealers.


    Everyone took a deep breath and looked at the eyes of others. It suddenly meant something inexplicably. In this way, all of you are competitors.


    "In this way, the deposit for five thousand passes is not expensive. I''ll pay for five thousand passes, but I want the distribution right of guanneidao." the Qian master waved his hand.


    Guan Nei road is the most important part of Datang. It includes the vast area of Changan City, the most prosperous area, with huge market potential.


    "Ha ha! What a coincidence! Zheng can also fall in love with the pass." Zheng Xuanli said impolitely.


    "If Lu is not talented, fight for the way in the pass." the merchant surnamed Lu also said in a loud voice.


    Not only the three of them, but also other tycoons have moved their minds, and they don''t want to give up the biggest fat meat of guanneidao.


    "Brother Xu, what do you think of this?" the owner of the Qian family frowned.


    Other tycoons also immediately looked at Xu Jie. After all, the richness of each road is naturally different. Of course, the richest are Guannei road and Henan road. There are Luoyang and Chang''an metropolises respectively. Of course, the worst is Lingnan road. I''m afraid the profit difference is more than several times.


    Xu Jie smiled and immediately knew that most of today''s things had been successful.


    "First, dealers should be people with sufficient strength, of course, local people." Xu Jie''s voice brightened the eyes of many businessmen, and each of the rich businessmen present naturally had their own base camp. If you can get the distribution right on your own territory, you will get twice the result with half the effort.


    "Second, if there are many people competing, take their scheduled solution to thousands of worries as the weight. The more people book, the more the distribution rights of this road will belong to?" when Xu Jie said this, many people secretly scolded Xu Jie for being insidious. Isn''t it a competition between them.


    "If you report the scheduled quantity, you must pay half the price as a deposit."


    All of a sudden, everyone put out the idea of reporting the quantity first and grabbing the distribution right first. After all, a bottle of wine is always money. Even if you pay half, there are 500 Wen. If you quote thousands of bottles and add a deposit, it is not a small amount.


    But I don''t report it myself. What about the others?


    This is the yangmou designed by Mojia village, which makes the merchants have no solution.

 Chapter 244

    "This..."


    Suddenly, everyone hesitated. If the reserved wine could not be sold out at that time, wouldn''t it be in their own hands.


    When Xu Jie''s mind turned, he immediately understood everyone''s worries. He smiled and said, "if your scheduled solutions to thousands of worries are not sold out a year later, the Mohist school can recycle them at the price?"


    "What?"


    Everyone was shocked. This was a business model that had never been seen in the business world since ancient times. No businessman was determined to leave his hand and would not return the goods. Unexpectedly, Mojia village was willing to recycle the backlog of goods, which was unheard of.


    "To tell you the truth, even if it is Mojia village itself, one tenth of the annual production of jieqianchou will be hoarded." Xu Jie broke out an amazing message.


    "Why is this?" the merchant surnamed Lu blurted out and didn''t understand.


    "Brother Lu, I don''t know! This wine is different from other things. Other good things are new and good. This wine is mellow as it gets older. Several years later, there are ten year and 100 year cellars on the market to solve thousands of worries. The price is not always available." Xu Jie smiled.


    The merchant surnamed Lu suddenly realized that the more wine is put, the more valuable it is. The solution of Qianchou in other years is not guaranteed, but only this year''s solution of Qianchou is a real priceless treasure, because it is the first batch. With the passage of time, the value must be higher in the future.


    Many businessmen immediately nodded. They naturally heard about the cellar wine. Now there are some old wine in Chang''an City, and each jar is worth a lot!


    "Brother Xu is a God. He has done a great business in wine." Zheng Xuanli sighed. Mohists not only regard wine as consumer goods, but also as a collection. In this way, they will double their sales.


    Zheng Xuanli has many friends who have the habit of collecting good wine. Every time these people talk about their wine storage, they all look proud. Not only that, I''m afraid many rich businessmen here also have the habit of collecting famous wine.


    Xu Jie picked up a bottle of jieqianchou, pointed to the serial numbers of the bottle and said, "each bottle of wine is its own unique number. You can directly query the year of jieqianchou, the sales region, and the unique anti-counterfeiting logo of Mohism."


    Anti counterfeiting marks and exquisite packaging crush the purity of all good wines in the world. In this way, the Mohist school will become the first famous wine in the Tang Dynasty.


    In this way, ordering more wine is not an unacceptable thing. The people''s original resistance suddenly dissipated. Holding more than the predetermined quantity, they can not only get the distribution right, but also have room for appreciation in the future. If it''s bad, they can return the original price to Mojia village, and the only thing they pay is a lot of cash.


    Xu Jie''s time was ripe. He clapped his hands and said, "now that you have understood the good wine of Mohism, if you don''t want us to start, let''s start from Lingnan road."


    "My little brother''s ancestral home is from Lingnan, and his business cost is small and his profits are thin, so I have to take a chance on this barren Lingnan road! My little brother is willing to book 5000 bottles in exchange for the distribution right of Lingnan road." the merchant surnamed Lu shook his head and sighed. 5000 bottles will have to pay a deposit of 2500 Guan, plus the deposit of the original 5000 Guan, which is not a small amount.


    "Hum! Lu boy, there are a lot of businessmen in Lingnan road. Which one is not very rich to sell. I''m afraid five thousand bottles won''t sell for a few months. I''ll book six thousand bottles." a rich businessman from the south said.


    "Ten thousand bottles!" the merchant surnamed Lu secretly hated. Originally, he saw that Lingnan road was remote and wanted to steal a chicken. He didn''t expect someone to cross the bar. Then he was cruel and doubled the number directly.


    The previous merchants hesitated for a moment. After all, in remote areas of Lingnan, 10000 bottles did have some risks. After thinking for a moment, they gave up. They would not bet heavily on other rich roads.


    Xu Jie shouted three times in a row, but there was no competition. He immediately said, "OK! Congratulations to brother Lu on winning the distribution right of Lingnan road. As the first partner of Mohism, Xu can give brother Lu a guarantee. If brother Lu loses money a year later, how much does brother Lu lose, and Mohist village will return it in full."


    "Thank you, shopkeeper Xu!" Xu Jie injected a booster into the merchant surnamed Lu, which made him calm.


    Then, Jiangnan Road, Jiannan Road, Huainan road... All of them made sky high prices, each of which made people smack.


    Especially in Henan Province, the competition is the most intense. When the competition between Zheng Xuanli and the Qian family owner was the most intense, several local tycoons jointly bid for 100000 bottles and won them at one stroke.


    The final Guannei road was not so fierce, but the joint operation of Zheng and Qian, who also reported the predetermined quantity of 100000 bottles.


    Seeing this, Xu Jie couldn''t help feeling extremely. Just now, Zheng Qian and his family were still fighting for life and death. In the twinkling of an eye, the two families even joined hands to be called allies. The young master was right. There are no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests.


    So far, all the distribution rights have a destination. The whole yuzhuangyuan building has instantly restored harmony, and there are voices of congratulations everywhere.


    When he got the distribution right, he smiled happily. He didn''t lose money without the distribution right. Xu Jie waved his hand and gave each person ten bottles to solve thousands of worries.


    "I don''t know how we and other northern grassland departments can get the management right to solve thousands of worries." at the moment, a Hu merchant suddenly got up and said, of course, everyone knows this man. This man is a Hu merchant in Chang''an City, who monopolizes most of the fur business in Chang''an city.


    Suddenly, people remembered that there were many countries around in addition to the ten ways of the Tang Dynasty. Especially the western countries, the grasslands in the north, Koguryo in the northeast, Nanzhao and Dali in the south. Although these countries are remote, they are a country after all. If they operate properly, they are not a small market.


    Immediately, Zheng Xuanli and others who had obtained the management right immediately turned their eyes to Xu Jie.


    Xu Jie immediately pondered: "the output of relieving thousands of worries in Mojia village is limited. At present, there is no intention to develop in surrounding countries. How much you can sell in southern countries depends on your ability."


    The merchant surnamed Lu was ecstatic. Lingnan road was adjacent to Nanzhao, and there were many small countries in Nanyang in the south. Naturally, he could make a lot of money during the empty window period when the output of Mohism was limited.


    "What about the north?"


    Hu merchants immediately hoped that the northern winter was bitter and cold, and wine was a necessary thing. Such a strong wine to solve thousands of worries was naturally the best choice and naturally had a great market.


    "However, Mojia village has no surplus output to supply all parts of the grassland. Instead, it has prepared a new wine for all ethnic groups in the north." Xu Jie stretched out his hand and immediately a Mojia child carried in a wine jar weighing about 20 kg.


    "This is the strongest wine in the world. It''s called stuffy pour horse!"

 Chapter 245

    "Boring down the horse?" they were stunned. Compared with the name Xie Qianchou, boring down the horse was extremely vulgar, but Xu Jie''s most powerful wine in the world immediately aroused everyone''s interest.


    People thought that relieving thousands of worries was already the strongest wine, but they didn''t expect that Mojia village also launched a stronger stuffy horse for all ethnic groups in the northern grassland.


    "Seriously?"


    Hu shangtie Wu does not believe.


    "You will know as soon as you taste it." Xu Jie smiled.


    With a pat, Xu Jie opened the mud seal of the wine jar, and suddenly a pungent smell of wine filled the whole fish champion building. Many luxury businessmen frowned. They were used to drinking good wine. The smell of such wine was that they knew that there was too much difference in quality to solve thousands of worries.


    Tiewu''s eyes brightened. He went up to pick up a wine spoon, scooped up a spoonful of wine, drank it in one gulp, and immediately felt like a fire from his throat to his stomach.


    "Good!"


    Tieuton blushed and shouted.


    Other wine lovers have come up to taste the so-called first spirits, but many people can''t help shaking their heads and frowning.


    "Too spicy!"


    The wine tastes too strong and difficult to taste.


    Xu Jie explained: "ladies and gentlemen, this wine is indeed specially brewed for all parts of the northern grassland. The north is bitter and cold, and eating wine spicy is the best thing to drive out the cold."


    Hu shangtie nodded when Wu dun. Compared with relieving thousands of worries, this wine is more suitable for all parts of the northern grassland.


    The top ten dealers also immediately put down their hearts. Being bored and settling thousands of worries is not a type, and there is little conflict between them.


    "I don''t know how to represent this wine?" many luxury businessmen who didn''t get the distribution right to solve thousands of worries immediately moved.


    "This wine is exclusively for the northern grassland departments. It will not be sold in Datang in a short time," Xu Jie said.


    All of them were disappointed, but they didn''t have much regret. They also tasted it. It''s really not suitable for Datang''s taste.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, don''t worry. Tiewu is a member of Xue yantuo tribe. I will be able to sell this wine to the whole prairie. I just don''t know the price of this wine? The agency fee?" tiewu asked.


    Since the eastern Turks were crippled by the Tang Dynasty, Xue yantuo rose and became the largest tribe in the northern grassland with the strongest strength.


    "There is no agency fee for this wine, and there is no price," Xu Jie said.


    "Oh?"


    The people were stunned. Can this wine be delivered for free.


    "What does shopkeeper Xu mean?" tiewu asked.


    "Barter, a jar of wine, a horse, of course, a cow is OK," Xu Jie said.


    "Ah!"


    The people were surprised that the Mohist school was this condition.


    But then everyone suddenly realized that if the price was directly marked, where could they get so much money on the grassland? On the contrary, cattle and horses are the most common thing on the grassland. Of course, they are also urgently needed by the Tang Dynasty. Only by using this method, I''m afraid we can make the stuffy horse popular on the grassland.


    Tiewuden said coldly, "shopkeeper Xu is joking! You know that even an ordinary grassland horse has the lowest price in the Tang Dynasty."


    In this era, the best horses come from all parts of the grassland. The horses produced by Datang have degenerated too much after evolution.


    Xu Jie shook his head and argued, "cattle and horses are really expensive in the Tang Dynasty, but they don''t have so much value on the grassland! But brother tie, don''t worry, a horse outside a jar of wine is just the price, and Mojia village will naturally leave you enough profits."


    Tieuton was silent. If so, it is not unacceptable. He only needs to do a new business and can make huge profits,


    "Cattle and horses are OK?" tiewu finally confirmed.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "yes, but the proportion of cattle and horses can''t exceed 37 points. At the same time, the profit of a horse sent by you should be greater."


    Even on the grassland, it is obvious that the price of cattle is slightly lower than that of horses. The demand for cattle and horses in Mojia village is also huge, especially the prevalence of four-wheel carriages, which has greatly increased the demand for horses, and the demand for cattle in agriculture is also not inferior.


    Moreover, if Mojia village is getting a large number of horses, it will drive the hot sales of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village. It is a business of killing two birds with one stone.


    Mojia village easily obtained a large number of cattle and horses, paid only a jar of 20 jin of wine, and then drove the hot sales of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village. This business model simply refreshed everyone''s business view.


    "Business ecological chain!"


    Xu Jie thought of a sentence inadvertently revealed by Merton. He was thoughtful and deepened his understanding.


    "OK! I promise this condition!"


    Tiewu and other Hu merchants discussed slightly, nodded and agreed to Xu Jie''s terms.


    So far, the commercial feast of the fish champion building is over, but its contents sweep the whole Chang''an city like a raging storm.


    "Mojia village earns at least 300000 yuan a day!"


    Suddenly, the whole Chang''an city seemed to be thrown into the lake by boulders, setting off waves.


    "Three hundred thousand."


    Countless business people in Chang''an city can''t help but smack their tongue. Although 300000 Guan is consumed by Mojia village for one year''s sales and costs, everyone subconsciously ignores this and focuses on 300000 Guan in one day.


    It would be such a huge number that ordinary people dare not think about it, but Mohist Zi did it easily in one day.


    What does Mohism rely on? It''s the magic ink technique! A wine making technology creates so much wealth.


    "Ink technology!"


    Many people immediately muttered to themselves and were once again amazed by the magic of ink technology. Among ordinary people, ink technology is simply a symbol of wealth.


    At the same time, the horse merchants in Chang''an City were crying! Originally, four wheeled carriages were popular in Mojia village, but it ushered in spring for horse merchants. Each family made a lot of money, and such a good thing seems to be coming to an end.


    The price of stuffy horses in Mojia village is actually a jar of wine for a horse. It can be imagined that many horses will fall into the hands of Mojia village in the future. At that time, I''m afraid the carriage and horse in Mojia village will be sold together, so there will be nothing for them.


    Since Wang Zhe was sent back to the Mohist family and shopkeeper Wang was sent to prison, a new shopkeeper was sent to the Wang family''s Ma Hang. Just after taking office, the new shopkeeper received the bad news and immediately collapsed to the ground.


    However, the impact on horse merchants has not been seen in a short time, but it is a bolt from the blue for grain merchants in Chang''an city.


    In this food war, Mojia village ran out of money twice, and the oil and water were about to dry up, which became the end of a powerful crossbow. I never thought that the Mohists could get 300000 yuan in a day, and the Jedi fought back and gave them a fatal blow.

 Chapter 246

    Wei Fu!


    "What, Mojia village has got another 300000 Guan!"


    When Wei Changde heard manager Wei''s report, he suddenly started!


    "Just signed the contract, the 300000 yuan hasn''t arrived yet, but with the reputation of these big businessmen, it will happen sooner or later." shopkeeper Wang said bitterly. In doing business in this era, reputation is very important. Since he promised, he will certainly do it.


    Wei Changde painfully closed his eyes and shook his head. Even if the 300000 yuan didn''t arrive, as long as the news was released, the grain merchant alliance would naturally be defeated.


    So far, Weidu was defeated miserably. What''s more shameful is that the two families united, but they were defeated by Mojia village on their own.


    For the first time, it was nearly 100000 yuan, plus more than 100000 yuan brought by Xu Jie from Luoyang, plus 300000 yuan this time. In a short time, Mojia village gathered nearly 500000 yuan of money. They were not wronged at all.


    Soon the bad news came that Zhangjiazhuang was the first to defecte!


    Zhangjiazhuang is not a big grain merchant in Chang''an City, but it is a big grain consumer in Chang''an city. The famous Zhangjia turbid wine in Chang''an city comes from Zhangjiazhuang. Due to its low price, it directly occupies the low-end wine market in Chang''an city.


    Zhangjiazhuang''s turbid wine has a large sales volume and a large amount of food consumed naturally. It needs to buy a large amount of food to make wine every year. Zhangjiazhuang is deeply resentful about the rise in food prices. Zhangjiazhuang''s turbid wine has a high volume and low profits. The rise in food prices directly increases the cost of Zhangjiazhuang''s turbid wine, and even may lose money.


    Therefore, when the Weidu family called for a boycott of grain harvest, Zhangjiazhuang can be said to be a positive response.


    However, Mojia village has repeatedly obtained huge wealth and invested in grain purchase, which directly makes Zhangjiazhuang lose hope of winning. Especially after the price of relieving thousands of worries and boring horses spread, Zhangjiazhuang is even more boiling, and its price is more than 100 times that of Zhangjia turbid wine, which makes them feel embarrassed.


    "Those people in Mojia village are really black hearted!" the village head of Zhangjia village was eating in his house, drinking the muddy wine produced by his village, and said with envy on his face.


    At this time, a villager hurriedly ran to report: "village head! Village head Li of Mojia village is visiting!"


    "Village head Li? The old boy Li Yi! No!" the village head of Zhangjia blew his beard and glared.


    Zhangjia village and Mojia village are both in the south of the city. Usually, they don''t look up and look down. They naturally know each other.


    "Hahaha, brother Zhang, don''t regret it. Little brother, I brought good wine to make amends." Li Yi''s hearty voice came from outside the village head''s yard.


    "No good wine!" said village head Zhang angrily.


    Li Yi stood outside the hospital and said regretfully, "that''s a pity. This is a good solution to thousands of worries."


    "Solve thousands of worries?"


    Village head Zhang suddenly felt like a kitten scratching his heart. It was a good wine that could sell a kilogram of money. He couldn''t sit still anymore. He rushed out of the door and grabbed it from Li Yi, who was trying to pour out an open bottle of jieqianchou.


    Back in the house, village head Zhang couldn''t wait to fill a glass and drink it up.


    "How?" Li Yi followed into the room with a bad smile.


    "Peerless wine!" village head Zhang sighed. Zhangjiazhuang has been making wine for generations. Naturally, he has been immersed in the cup all his life. He has drunk countless times all his life. Naturally, he can distinguish the benefits of this wine.


    "Don''t think that using this wine can calm me down. This time, you have done me a terrible harm in Zhangjiazhuang," village head Zhang immediately turned his face and scolded. If the food price rises by two Wen, the wine in Zhangjiazhuang will be the biggest impact.


    "No, isn''t this the younger brother who came to make amends?" Li Yi smiled.


    "Make amends? How do you want to make amends?" village head Zhang said in a slightly relaxed tone.


    "Mojia village will increase the price by 30% and Book 1000 jars of Zhangjia turbid wine," Li Yi said.


    "Seriously!" village head Zhang suddenly said. A large jar of wine is as much as 100 Jin. A thousand jars is not a small number, but the output of Zhangjiazhuang in recent one year.


    "Yes, and there will only be many more orders every year in the future!" Li Yi added.


    Village head Zhang suddenly breathed. If so, with this single business alone, Zhangjiazhuang can earn back a whole year''s profits.


    "Is the solution of thousands of worries made of Zhangjia turbid wine?" village head Zhang said in his heart. Hearing so many orders, he immediately knew the plan of Mojia village,.


    Mojia village has just issued a law to understand the thousands of worries and boredom. There are a lot of orders. I''m afraid it can''t be completed by relying on the strength of Mojia village alone. The only way is to buy Zhangjia turbid wine and make wine with wine.


    Li Yi shook his head and said, "of course not. It''s made by Mojia village, but it can be brewed with Zhangjia turbid wine."


    The biggest characteristic of stuffy pour horse is strong. It only needs to pursue purity. Zhangjia turbid wine is the most suitable and the cost is the lowest.


    "It''s a pity, but Zhangjiazhuang doesn''t have much grain and can''t brew so much wine!" village head Zhang shook his head. The rise in grain prices has led to an increase in costs. Zhangjiazhuang village can''t buy enough grain to make wine at all.


    "If you don''t have much grain, go and buy it! Mojia village can pay half of the deposit in advance." Li Yi seduced.


    Mojia village is now rich in cash. Naturally, I don''t care about this advance.


    "Do you want Zhangjiazhuang to take the lead in collecting grain?" village head Zhang suddenly understood Li Yi''s plan. If Zhangjiazhuang wants to win the big order of Mojia village, it is the only way to buy grain, but it is necessary to offend the Weidu family.


    Li Yi said irrefutably, "Mojia village is about to earn 300000 yuan, and the grain merchant alliance will collapse sooner or later. Even if Zhangjiazhuang doesn''t take the lead in collecting grain, the order of 1000 jars will still count. However, if Zhangjiazhuang takes the lead in collecting grain, Mojia village will give Zhangjiazhuang a way to filter turbid wine in return."


    "Good! Zhangjiazhuang is the first to collect grain." village head Zhang immediately agreed to the requirements of Mojia village in consideration of less than three interest time. The biggest reason for the low price of Zhangjia turbid wine is that the liquor is turbid and sells poorly. If we can get the filtration technology of Mojia village, we can certainly solve the biggest problem.


    "Congratulations. In the future, Zhangjia turbid wine can be renamed Zhangjia sake." Li Yi smiled.


    This is the best opportunity for Zhangjiazhuang. If you miss it, I''m afraid zhangjiacun will regret it all your life. You know, there are not only brewing villages like Zhangjiazhuang around Chang''an city.


    "I have brought the deposit and filtering equipment. Village head Zhang only needs to sign the contract." Li Yi took out the prepared contract.


    Village head Zhang was stunned and the filtering equipment had been pulled. In other words, the filtering equipment was originally prepared for Zhangjia turbid wine.


    "Nonsense, if you don''t filter it well in Zhangjiazhuang, do you want to pull down Mojia village and filter it again." Li Yi said angrily.


    "You old thief, should you use me!" village head Zhang was angry immediately.


    Suddenly, there was a flurry of chickens flying and dogs jumping in Zhangjiazhuang. However, village head Zhang didn''t mean to break the contract at all. After all, it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Zhangjiazhuang village.


    With Zhangjiazhuang taking the lead in collecting grain, and every bucket of seven Wen, and all use official bucket.


    Soon, from Chang''an city to the whole Guanzhong region, the alliance of grain merchants in Chang''an city suddenly collapsed like a domino, and Zhangjiazhuang was the first card to fall.

 Chapter 247

    In Chongwen Museum,


    At the moment, it was class break time. A group of princes curiously formed a circle and inexplicably watched Merton put dominoes on the ground one after another.


    "It''s finally set!"


    Morton Morton wiped a sweat, solemnly placed the last red dominoes, looked at the colorful dominoes on the ground with satisfaction, and he tried many times. This time, he was the most successful, with the largest number of dominoes.


    "Merton, what fun is there? It''s better for us to play Cuju together!" Li Zhi said. At his young boy''s age, in his opinion, there is no more fun game of Cuju.


    "That''s right. What''s so funny about the erected signs?" Li you, king of Qi, said contemptuously.


    Only the old prince looked interested. You know, Merton often outflow some unheard of new things from Merton. These new things often have incredible surprises.


    A few days ago, the new Mohist wine sold 300000 yuan a day, which shocked Chang''an city. Even the princes were surprised.


    Merton smiled and said, "this is an experiment of Mohism. Just push down" it''s the father! "The princes answered in unison,


    Many princes looked at Merton bitterly. If it weren''t for this guy, why did he add another homework.


    Now Li Shimin is more and more fond of calling Merton into the palace to get along with the princes. This boy is simply a perfect child of others.


    Moreover, Merton always has some strange knowledge, especially in mathematics, which no one can surpass.


    Li Shimin waved and drove the other princes back to the school in Chongwen Museum. Merton also wanted to slip away, but he was stared by Li Shimin''s eyes and immediately stiffened and stopped there,


    "I heard you''ve made a lot of money recently." Li Shimin said gnashing his teeth. It was incredible for Merton to earn 100000 Guan in half a month. I didn''t expect that it wasn''t long before this boy made another move against the sky, earning 300000 Guan a day.


    Wei Zheng looked at Merton in surprise. What surprised Wei Zheng most was that Merton earned 300000 yuan, but paid very little.


    "Back to your majesty, it''s all an advance deposit and will be delivered later. It''s all a big expense. In the end, what you earn is just some hard money." Merton said with a sad face.


    "If you work hard for money, I''ll live in vain all my life. I''ve worked hard all my life, and I''m a great minister. My salary is not as much as you for a day." Wei Zheng added.


    "That''s your old man with clean hands and integrity." Merton quickly flattered.


    "Hehe, that''s very nice. Do you know how many people in the court came to visit you and said that your move would consume too much food. Of course, it would shake the national capital and cause the food crisis in Guanzhong." Li Shimin sneered.


    Wine making is a food consuming industry, and the food consumed to solve thousands of worries is several times that of ordinary wine. A large number of wine sales in Mojia village naturally need a large amount of food.


    Merton was really going to cry this time. He quickly explained, "Your Majesty, the price to solve thousands of worries is high, and its real output is not much!"


    "High price? Didn''t you just say you earned hard money?" Li Shimin looked at Merton with a smile.


    Merton was tongue tied. It turned out that Li Shimin was waiting for him here. He had to say dejectedly, "boy, I know my mistake and am willing to be punished."


    "Then you say how to punish you!" Li Shimin continued to "chase and kill".


    Merton clenched his teeth and said in a cruel voice, "the stuffy horse and reconciliation of thousands of worries in Mojia village really cost a lot of food. Mojia village is willing to pay heavy taxes on two kinds of wine to block everyone''s mouth."


    "Heavy tax?" Li Shimin and Wei Zheng moved in their hearts, but looked at Merton quietly on their faces.


    "Mohist village is willing to pay four taxes and one," Morton said proudly.


    Li Shimin was surprised that the commercial tax of Datang was only 30 taxes, and Merton suddenly raised it to four taxes.


    By paying alcohol tax at this rate, the Ministry of the people''s Republic of China can earn 75000 yuan at once. In the future, Merton will have to pay one for every four horses he buys from the prairie. This is probably the heaviest business tax in history.


    "Do you really want to?" Li Shimin said seriously. This is not a small number.


    "Your Majesty, if I don''t want to do anything else, I''m sure this wine is too food consuming, and since this wine has come into the world, I believe the method of liquor purification will spread out. By then, all wineries in Datang will be able to brew such high-level wine, which will certainly lead to a food crisis. Since it''s the trouble caused by me, I''ll naturally solve it from me." Merton said.


    Tax is the most important adjustment lever, and levying heavy tax is indeed the most effective method.


    "Your Majesty, what Mo boy said is very true. Instead of causing great trouble in the future, it is better to control it from the source today." Wei Zheng also said.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help feeling that although Merton often caused trouble, he had a better first thing, that is, he made trouble and handled it himself. The previous food price protection order incident and this high alcohol incident are all like this. It''s love and hate.


    However, Merton did not suffer. The high price of these two kinds of wine, even paying four taxes and one, is enough to make the bowl of money in Mojia village overflow.

 Chapter 248

    "Four taxes and one!"


    The news that Mohist fine wine paid heavy taxes immediately caused an uproar in the business circles of Chang''an city.


    Four taxes one, this is an unprecedented heavy tax since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Even in the history of those despotic monarchs, they have not heard of such heavy taxes.


    The news that Mohists earn 300000 yuan a day has not disappeared in Chang''an city. The news that Mohists pay heavy taxes has pushed Mohist village to the forefront of the storm.


    "300000 Guan, let me calculate how much tax the Mohists pay this time?"


    "Seventy five thousand!"


    Countless people were stunned and their hearts echoed this amazing figure.


    When the Mohist family paid nearly ten thousand taxes before, the people were stunned. It was not long before the Mohist village broke out such a high tax.


    "Oh, my God! Your majesty doesn''t like the Mohist school very much because of such heavy taxes. How can you be so cruel?" someone didn''t understand.


    "If Mojia village earns so much wealth, it should pay more taxes." since ancient times, people who hate the rich have never stopped. Naturally, many people don''t like it when Mojia village earns so much money.


    Many officials cheered at the news and thought that their playing had played a role. His majesty began to punish the Mohist School severely.


    "You don''t know! It was not collected by your majesty, but handed over by the initiative of the Mexican family."


    However, as the news spread, everyone was dumbfounded.


    "The MOH family asked for it voluntarily? Is he stupid? Thirty taxes and one, he would only pay another 10000 yuan. Why should he pay more than 60000 yuan?" the man who heard the speech said with heartache, as if he were digging meat from him.


    "Yes, and the reason why Mohist made wine was not for his Majesty''s grain price protection order." some people who supported Mohism were dissatisfied.


    The war between the Mohist village and the grain merchants is spreading in Chang''an city. It has long been no secret. Of course, everyone knows the origin of solving thousands of worries.


    "It is said that relieving thousands of worries and depressing horses consume the most food. If brewing on a large scale, it will certainly cause a food crisis in Guanzhong. Therefore, mojiazi volunteered to be punished and bear the heavy tax of four taxes and one."


    When they heard the speech, they couldn''t help being silent for a while. They couldn''t help but silently read a sentence of Mohism and felt a lot.


    However, the high taxes are not only bad but also good. They directly hit the reputation of Mohist wine, making Xie Qianchou popular in Chang''an City and spread to the whole Tang Dynasty at a rapid speed.


    In the face of such a hot situation, the ten dealers did not hesitate any longer and handed in their respective deposit and advance payment in accordance with the previous agreement.


    "Hahaha, Lord Mo is really good! It wasn''t long before he made such a huge fortune." Dai Zhou said with his mouth closed, and his eyes looked like a boy who scattered money.


    As long as it was tax collection, Dai Zhou was the most sensitive. All dealers went out with their front feet, and his back feet had arrived.


    "How dare you bother Lord Dai to come to the door again, and soon the boy will send the tax to the Ministry of the people in person." Merton said hurriedly.


    Dai Zhou waved his big hand and said in a loud voice, "it''s not hard, it''s not hard at all."


    Seventy five thousand Guan, let alone let him come to the door twice, even let him guard at the door of Mo mansion every day.


    "This time, this Shangshu transferred all the elites of the Ministry of the people to complete it in the shortest time. Lord Mo was the God of wealth of 300000 a day, and it couldn''t take a lot of time." Dai Zhou waved his hand and immediately rushed in a large number of accounting rooms of the Ministry of the people. He looked at the new wealth myth of Chang''an City curiously. The leader was still the last middle-aged accounting room.


    "Lord Dai is joking!" Merton couldn''t laugh or cry when he heard the speech. Now Chang''an City says that mojiazi earns 300000 yuan a day, which is almost the same ridicule as later generations say that someone makes hundreds of thousands a minute.


    "Ha ha!" Dai Zhou said with a loud smile.


    "Thank you, gentlemen." Merton arched his hands to the people''s Ministry accounting rooms. A large number of civil elites, this is probably the most primitive accountant!


    "Lord Mo is so polite!" the middle-aged cashier hurriedly said.


    A group of accountants also quickly returned gifts. They didn''t dare to neglect the God of wealth in front of them. During this time, mojiazi was the most popular person in the Ministry of people.


    Most of the major dealers paid gold and silver instead of a lot of copper money, which made the dozens of cars brought by Dai Zhou useless. Of course, it also greatly reduces the work of the accounting room of the Ministry of civil affairs.


    When a room full of gold and silver was presented in front of many accounting rooms, ordinary people must have bright eyes, but fortunately, the accounting room of the Ministry of civil affairs often sorted out the Treasury. When they saw much more gold and silver, they didn''t move at all, and immediately began their work.


    "Four taxes and one, this is the heaviest tax I know in the world, and what surprised me most is that this heavy tax was paid by Lord Mo on his own initiative. I wonder if Lord Mo can solve my doubts." Dai Zhou took a deep breath and asked his doubts.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "from the boy''s point of view, the role of tax is not just to collect taxes for the country to operate. On the contrary, it can play too many roles."


    "I''d like to hear it!" Dai Zhou said positively.


    "Take Mohist wine as an example. This wine is indeed too food consuming, but it is also indispensable. We can impose heavy taxes and raise the price in disguise, so that the number of people who buy wine will naturally decrease. In this way, the imperial court can not only obtain more taxes, but also reduce food consumption. This is one of the reasons why the boy takes the initiative to pay heavy taxes. Even in the future, Mohist wine The leakage of formula, resulting in heavy taxes, will not cause the national food crisis, "Merton explained.


    "I see."


    Dai Zhou was immediately impressed, like an epiphany. At the same time, he looked at Merton with a trace of appreciation.


    Merton added: "for some industries that are good for the country, such as cattle, horses, farm tools and waterwheel, we can reduce taxes, and even some things that the court continues can be exempted from taxes. In this way, we can stimulate some people to increase investment in this area, which has achieved the purpose of the court."


    "Control the adverse side of the court and encourage and support industries beneficial to the court."


    Dai Zhou nodded thoughtfully.


    "Mohists call this macro-control," Merton summarized.


    "And taxes can even the rich and the poor........"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Dai Zhou was as happy as drinking sour plum soup in the dog days. The words of mojiazi directly opened a door to him, a door to greatly increase the rights of the Ministry of the people.


    Before that, the Ministry of civil affairs only collected taxes and then used them, but it never thought that the Ministry of civil affairs could do so much.


    "I''d like to report to the minister that the 75000 taxes paid by Mojia village have been verified." the middle-aged accountant reported.


    Dai Zhou nodded and saw that the 75000 Guan was no longer excited before he came. He harvested something more valuable than the 75000 Guan today.

 Chapter 249

    "Macro-control!"


    Li Shimin looked at the memorial sent by Dai Zhou and looked at it carefully again and again.


    In the memorial of armor, there are a few more detailed sentences than Merton, which directly list the benefits of tax increase, tax reduction and exemption, as well as some industries that need tax reduction and price tax.


    "Are you sure it''s not Merton who is seeking personal gains for the public and wants to make up the extra tax in other places?" Li Shimin joked.


    He looked at the memorial carefully again. The duty-free industries played by Dai Zhou were pear farming, water conservancy... Many of them were Mojia village industries, and even incubation technology was within the scope of duty-free.


    "If Lord Mo is really like this, the old minister will take a hard look at him." Dai Zhou smiled.


    "However, according to Lord Mo, the Mojia village is about to open the artificial incubation technology. Over time, the people will surely live and work in peace and contentment and have a rich life everywhere." Dai Zhou added.


    "Oh! Merton, the little catfish, is finally generous." Li Shimin suddenly became interested. Up to now, there is only one Mohist family in artificial incubation technology. The chicken, duck and goose cubs produced sell well in the whole Guanzhong area, but they have created amazing profits for the Mohist village every month.


    But Rao is so. The chicken, duck and goose cubs produced by the Mohists are still a drop in the bucket for the whole Tang Dynasty.


    Of course, Li Shimin knows the importance of artificial incubation technology to the Tang Dynasty, but he does not urgently want the Mohist school to disclose this secret skill. On the one hand, the Mohist village produces a large number of chickens, ducks and geese to supply the whole Guanzhong. On the other hand, he knows that Merton will spread this secret skill one day, just like the secret skill of live fish.


    Originally, I thought that the Mohist school would be open at the ink technology exhibition next year, and Li Shimin could afford to wait a year. I didn''t expect that Mohism would take the initiative to make it public at this time.


    Dai Zhou shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, don''t be fooled by this little catfish. On the one hand, the reason why Mojia village discloses its secret skills of chicken, duck and goose is that the poultry market in Guanzhong has been saturated, and Mojia village can''t do it in the farther area. On the other hand, Mojia village has recently launched a new feed for chicken, duck and goose. It is said that the cubs grow rapidly after eating, and now they are popular in Guanzhong."


    Li Shimin smiled angrily and said, "in this way, the left and right sides of Mojia village don''t suffer losses, do they?"


    The proliferation of artificial incubation technology and the hatching of a large number of cubs will certainly drive the sales of feed in Mojia village, and Mojia village will earn more at that time.


    "More than that, it is said that the ink hospital has developed ink medicine for the treatment of poultry diseases. It is said that the curative effect is good!" Dai Zhou sighed.


    Dai Zhou and Li Shimin looked at each other and didn''t know what to say. The original words that wanted to praise mojiazi''s open artificial incubation secret for the Tang Dynasty had long disappeared.


    I don''t know what''s going on. What mingmingmozi does is to benefit the country and the people. However, it seems that he works for his own welfare. He doesn''t need Li Shimin''s reward at all. Every time, Li Shimin has a sense of powerlessness.


    "This little catfish!"


    Li Shimin could not help but hate and said.


    Dai Zhou''s fold only passed through the three provinces and six departments, and soon passed through the court hall and sent it to all roads of the Tang Dynasty.


    At the same time, the new issue of Ink magazine was released, and the front page headline announced the secret of artificial incubation technology.


    "It takes 21 days for an egg to hatch and break its shell!"


    "As long as a constant temperature suitable for the body temperature of a hen is maintained in the house, coupled with the appropriate temperature, chicks can hatch."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There are a lot of things to pay attention to. Don''t underestimate these things. This is the most valuable and experience of Mojia village. For this reason, Mojia village has suffered a lot of losses. A few months ago, the experience of eating raw eggs in Mojia village is still a lingering dream of Mojia village people. If you put it on ordinary self-employed households, you can''t tell how many times you have lost your money.


    Women''s medical school.


    A group of young and beautiful girls are gathered together. In the center of many women, dominoes are placed regularly.


    In the center of many women, a tall and burly girl stood proudly and said proudly, "this is the Mozi dominoes, which was transformed by the Mohist according to the war between Wu and Chu."


    This woman is mo Da Niu. No, it''s Mo Zihan.


    At the moment, the domino effect has already spread all over Chang''an City, and the girls in the women''s Medical College boast that they are all scholars. Naturally, they disdain playing childish games when they were young. At this time, the domino effect has just spread to the women''s Medical College and has just become the new favorite of female medical students.


    In addition, there are a large number of Mojia village children in the women''s medical school. Naturally, they especially admire their own young master''s games. They take them out to play every class break.


    "Li Zhi, please push it." big girl happened to see her good friend Li Zhi aside and hurriedly said hello.


    Of course, Li Zhi is Princess Li Lizhong of Changle. She is gentle and kind. More importantly, her grades are particularly good. Naturally, everyone is willing to make friends with her.


    Big girl couldn''t help saying that she pulled Li Lizhi over. She was a good friend, but her name was too masculine. She advised her to change a nice name like herself many times, but she didn''t succeed.


    With the first dominoes falling in the hands of Princess Changle, one by one, even the girls have seen it many times and are still amazed.


    "It''s nothing. Some time ago, my young master faced the grain merchant alliance of the whole Chang''an city. He was happy and unafraid. With a gentle push, the whole grain merchant alliance collapsed like this dominoes!" with a wave of the female doctor''s robe, Da Niu made a pair of light waves, and the masts went up in smoke. She was extremely proud.


    "Wow!"


    All the girls exclaimed.


    Princess Changle also has bright eyes and a look of fascination. Compared with Daniu and others, she knows much more in detail, but the shock in her heart is not reduced.


    "Dangdang!"


    The class break is over and the boring medical life will begin again.


    In school.


    Hua Lao gently stepped onto the platform. As a specially hired doctor of the women''s Medical College, he is one of the only male doctors who can enter the women''s Medical College,


    "I believe everyone has seen the manual incubation technology in Ink magazine. What is the key?" Hua Lao raised his Ink magazine and said loudly.


    "Temperature!" Li Lizhi replied without hesitation.


    Old Hua nodded with satisfaction and said, "yes, it''s temperature. Temperature is also very important for doctors. Today we''ll learn the secret of temperature in medicine."


    "If you take the ice water as zero, the water will boil to 100 degrees, while the temperature of the human body is between 36 degrees and 37 degrees. If a patient''s temperature is lower than or higher than this temperature, it is a sign of illness. Even if it reaches 40 degrees, the patient''s life will be in danger." old Hua said with a heavy face.


    Everyone nodded solemnly. The one who had not been ill naturally knew the taste of illness and fever.


    "Therefore, as doctors, one of our most basic skills is to accurately detect the patient''s temperature with our hands, so as to accurately judge the condition and accurately use drugs."


    "In addition, I have to learn some cooling methods. Please look at the wet towel and alcohol in my hand..."

 Chapter 250

    Different from Confucian rites, the friendship between gentlemen in Taoism is as light as water.


    Love and benefit each other! It is the core thought of Mohism and the initial criterion of Mohist behavior..


    It has to be said that the various schools of thought in the pre-Qin period are indeed the masters in the history of thought. Although they have their own emphases, they most profoundly reflect the essence of human nature.


    Since Mohist School appeared in Chang''an City, Mohist village has perfectly practiced the idea of mutual benefit, and has always pursued the idea of mutual benefit. All those who cooperate with Mohist village have obtained rich benefits.


    Secret skills of live fish, Qu Yuan plow, columbine, irrigation tools


    This time, Mojia village announced the artificial incubation technology again, which immediately caused an uproar among the major merchants in Chang''an city.


    You know, in addition to Guanzhong area, Datang has other large blank areas, which urgently need chicken, duck and goose cubs. This is a business that can make no loss.


    Moreover, there is a precedent of Mohist school. In recent months, Mohist village has made a lot of money by using artificial incubation technology. Even if it can''t make so much, it can at least make a small fortune.


    Although Mojia village has announced the principle of artificial incubation technology, it is unclear how much temperature is appropriate and how to judge the temperature. Fortunately, Mojia village has expected this situation and has manufactured a large number of incubation equipment in advance.


    After hearing the news, merchants from Chang''an city immediately rushed to Mojia village and scrambled to buy.


    "Give me a set of incubation equipment." a gray haired businessman with a foreign accent shouted eagerly, holding up the silver pair in his hand.


    In this era, businessmen seem to make money, but there is no need to say more about the hardships of traveling north and south.


    If you can go back to your hometown and sell chicken, duck and goose cubs, you can not only work in your hometown without long-distance travel, but also make money, why not?


    "Where are you going to do this business, sir?" Mo''er asked after the silver.


    "The villain''s hometown is Dengzhou. He''s too old to run. He''s ready to go home!" the gray haired merchant smiled happily. If he had this equipment and went home to sell chicken, duck and goose cubs, he would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.


    "Old man, good eye!" Mo Er praised and crossed out Dengzhou on the roster beside him.


    Seeing the merchant with gray hair leave happily with the equipment, the next young merchant around the age of 30 couldn''t wait to say, "give me one too."


    "Oh, sir, where are you going to get rich?" Mo Er asked as usual.


    "Yangzhou!" said the young merchant proudly.


    Although Yang Yiyi and Yang Yier are said decades later, Yangzhou at this time does not have to be inferior to Chang''an and Luoyang. Yangzhou close to the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal has long been an extremely prosperous metropolis. The annual consumption of meat is naturally an astronomical figure. Selling chicken, duck and goose cubs here will certainly make a lot of money. Young merchants can''t help being proud of their keen business mind.


    Mo Er frowned and persuaded, "Sir, are you sure you want to be in Yangzhou? So far, ten merchants in Yangzhou have bought equipment."


    The young merchants were dissatisfied and said, "did the Mohists sell it to them but not to me?"


    Mo Er explained, "of course not. Since Mr. Mojia came to Mojia village, he naturally came to get rich. If there are more than a dozen companies in Yangzhou who buy and sell chicken, duck and goose cubs at the same time, I''m afraid none of them will make money at that time. Of course, Mojia just gave Mr. Mojia a suggestion and won''t interfere with his decision."


    Young merchants suddenly realized why Mojia village should record the business place of each merchant. It turned out to be this reason.


    Obviously, if you are like gray haired merchants, even in a small county, only your own family can make a fortune. After all, the vast countryside is the final breeding market.


    But no matter how big the city is, no matter how big the market is, as long as the competition is fierce, it is also possible to lose money.


    "What about Suzhou?" the young businessman asked with a little guilty heart.


    "There are already seven." Mo Er stall said.


    Young businessmen were suddenly unwilling, uncertain in their hearts, and did not know how to choose. Choosing a small county naturally won''t lose, and choosing a metropolis has the same benefits and risks.


    Mo Er added a fire and said, "I''ll tell you another news for free. This batch of equipment produced by Mojia village is limited, and it can meet one set of equipment in one county of Datang at most. If you choose a small county, you will surely earn no loss. As for the metropolis, Mojia can''t guarantee it."


    After thinking for a moment, the young businessman finally chose the small county of his hometown, bought a set of equipment and left regretfully.


    "It''s really an eye opener for me to let others make money in Mojia village, but I don''t make money myself." Zheng Xuanli, who took the whole process back to his eyes, sighed.


    Mojia village can be completely laissez faire and let people choose independently. However, a simple job in Mojia village can ensure the interests of most merchants.


    Xu Jie, who accompanied him, said with a smile: "mutual benefit is the foundation of Mohism based on the world. Since this person trusts Mohism and comes to buy Mohist products, Mohism naturally has the obligation to make money. If one pays for another, Mohism''s reputation will be rotten long ago."


    "What about the ten in Yangzhou?" Zheng Xuanli asked.


    "The Mohist school has already reminded them, and even the first one to buy will inform others in advance. The Mohist school has done its utmost, and the Mohist school is not a loose money boy." Xu Jie shook his head and said that such a thing can''t be avoided by anyone. A broad market is in front of us, and many people can''t stand the temptation.


    Zheng Xuanli nodded with emotion. He had done business all his life. For the first time, he saw someone do it.


    He can even see that since Mojia village has made the artificial incubation technology public and abandoned the hen laying golden eggs, it will not care about the small profits of incubation equipment.


    The biggest reason why Mojia village makes so many equipment is to promote the artificial incubation technology in the whole Datang at the fastest speed. I never thought of making money from these equipment.


    "Mutual benefit!"


    Zheng Xuanli read it again silently, and suddenly felt something in his heart.


    From a small level, these merchants must have made a lot of profits. Naturally, these people are grateful to the Mohist school. From a large level, the whole Tang Dynasty makes a profit. Over time, I''m afraid even ordinary people can afford eggs and make the people rich and the country strong.


    Zheng Xuanli thinks that his life has been ups and downs in the business sea, and his business is also smooth. Now looking back on his business career, it is a world different from Mojia village, and he is directly crushed on the level.

 Chapter 251

    Zheng Xuanli is the beneficiary of the mutual benefit of Mohism. The heavy tax of four taxes and one directly makes Xie Qianchou popular in the Tang Dynasty. Countless good players in wine countries are looking forward to it.


    This makes the top ten dealers excited. According to this momentum, once the solution is sold, of course, there will be a lot of money.


    Moreover, the audience is the richest place in Datang, and can''t wait to solve thousands of worries.


    Today, Zheng Xuanli came to Mojia village to pick up the goods. Unexpectedly, he saw a good play.


    "Please, brother Zheng. I''m afraid brother Qian has been in a hurry." Xu Jie raised his hand and invited him. The distribution right of guanneidao is the joint operation of Zheng and Qian.


    Zheng Xuanli nodded and accompanied Xu Jie to a warehouse in Mojia village.


    All the dealers of Datang Shidao in front of the warehouse came. Seeing Xu Jie and Zheng Xuanli coming, they immediately welcomed them one after another.


    The leader of the Qian family said discontentedly, "shopkeeper Xu, your delivery is too slow! I heard that I was bored, but I had already opened the supply."


    Xu Jie laughed and said, "brother Qian, I don''t know. The stuffy horse is only for the grassland. It only wants the strongest taste, followed by the taste. Mojia village directly uses Zhangjia sake to make wine. Naturally, it''s very fast."


    It is an open matter to make wine from horse wine. However, it is different from the poor reputation of Zhangjia turbid wine before. With the technical support of Mojia village, Zhangjia turbid wine has become Zhangjia sake. The quality has doubled, but the price is still affordable. Once launched, it has received high praise from Chang''an city.


    With a large amount of supply from Zhangjiazhuang village, the output of stuffy horses naturally went up. The Hu merchants of tiewu had already pulled the stuffy horses away, and now they are estimated to have reached the grassland.


    But jieqianchou is brewed by Mohist with a secret recipe, and the production process is extremely slow. Although it can not reach the top nine cooking, eight fermentation and seven wine taking in later generations. But in terms of technology, it is enough to crush the brewing technology of this era.


    "Today, Mojia village has prepared 2000 pieces for you to solve thousands of worries. You will distribute them according to the predetermined quantity and proportion, and deliver them first to solve the urgent problem." Xu Jielang said, instructing the children of Mojia to open the door of the warehouse.


    The whole warehouse was stacked with rows of cartons, neatly placed.


    As for packaging, Mojia village adopts the common packaging of later generations, one piece and six bottles.


    Zheng Xuanli''s eyes lit up. Others focused on solving thousands of worries in a warehouse, while he paid more attention to these square cartons. These cartons can be stacked layer by layer and store more things in the smallest space. He couldn''t help sighing in his heart. There are really surprises everywhere in Mojia village.


    The owner of the Qian family bent on his interests and frowned and said, "two thousand pieces? In this way, guanneidao can only be divided into about four hundred pieces. How is this enough!"


    At present, the demand for solving thousand worries is booming, with 400 pieces and 2400 bottles. Once put into this boiling market, it is estimated that there is no sound at all.


    "Lingnan Road, this is too little!"


    The merchant surnamed Lu looked even more sad. According to this division method, he could get only nearly 100 pieces, which was a drop in the bucket.


    Xu Jie said with a wry smile, "even so, this is all the inventory of Mojia village."


    These solutions to Qianchou are the inventory slowly accumulated by the Mohists before. Otherwise, with the cumbersome process of solving Qianchou, how can wine be produced in a short time.


    "But you can rest assured that Mojia village has already increased the production of wine. I believe you will not lose your supply in the future," Xu Jie promised.


    "It doesn''t matter to be less. Isn''t it just in line with the concept of Mohist hunger marketing, and it''s not a bad thing." Zheng Xuanli suddenly said.


    The concept of hunger marketing has long been spread from Mohism. Everyone present is good at business. Naturally, they understand the truth. When they think of this, they are relieved.


    Special container wagons stopped in front of the warehouse, and boxes of worries were quickly put into the containers by the Mohist children.


    As businessmen, transportation is an unavoidable problem. In case of bad weather, the goods will inevitably suffer losses.


    The container like four-wheel carriage is tailor-made for transporting goods. Coupled with the carton mode and the super heavy load of the four-wheel carriage, it is a perfect match.


    The transportation volume is large, and whether the goods can be guaranteed against loss.


    Zheng Xuanli has already seen strange things. There are surprises everywhere in Mojia village.


    Mojia village is closest to Chang''an city. As soon as Zheng Qian and his family got the goods, they put this batch of worries into Chang''an city at the first time.


    Exquisite packaging, unique anti-counterfeiting code and mellow and hot taste directly swept the wine industry of Chang''an and conquered Chang''an city.


    Major restaurants, brothels and high-end places have taken relieving thousands of worries as the treasure of town stores. Luxury customers who come to consume are proud to drink relieving thousands of worries.


    In addition, there are powerful families, wealthy merchants and some good players in the wine country. Four hundred pieces can solve thousands of worries. In addition to a few pieces, they are shipped to other counties and cities to become famous. They are almost sold out in Chang''an City in the shortest time.


    Hunger marketing is gaining momentum again. The more you can''t buy it, the more it contributes to the reputation of jieqianchou.


    The hot scene in Chang''an city immediately excited the top ten dealers and regretted the luxury merchants who had participated in the auction and finally gave up. According to this form, acting as an agent to solve thousands of worries must be a business that can earn no loss, and make a lot of money.


    Soon, Luoyang, Yangzhou and Yizhou came the hot news of solving thousands of worries.


    At the same time, on a prairie in the north, the nearest to the border of the Tang Dynasty is a tribe named Gu Yan, where a more primitive transaction is also being held.


    Barter.


    And the object of the transaction is boring.


    "Two horses and a jar of wine!" tie Wu said firmly to Gu Yan''s leader, without bargaining at all.


    If Merton were here, he would certainly cry out to unscrupulous businessmen. The Mohists suggested that he sell a jar of wine and a horse, and tie Wu was even more ruthless and doubled the price directly.


    However, the sky here is high and the emperor is far away, and the Mohist school can''t manage it at all. There is no deposit, that is, it has long considered this situation and can only let it go.


    "You''re a robbery!" Gu Yan''s leader roared. If tiewu were not the most powerful businessman in the prairie, he even had the impulse to hit people.


    On the prairie, although cattle and horses are very common, they are large livestock after all, and their value is not low. Two horses and a jar of wine are too expensive.


    "Leader Gu Yan, this wine is the strongest wine in the Tang Dynasty. We have shipped it from the Tang Dynasty thousands of miles. The price is very reasonable. And you have tasted the wine just now. You can see that what I said is true." tiewu said.


    Gu Yan nodded, but he personally tasted the stuffy horse, and was immediately conquered by its hot taste. Recalling the horse milk wine brewed by his tribe, it was a little tasteless


    "If there are distinguished guests in your tribe, wouldn''t it be a great honor to entertain them?" tiewu seduced.


    Guyan tribe is the largest tribe in a few hundred miles. Several horses are as common for a tribal leader as raising a chicken in a farmer''s home in the pass. I heard that this wine is the strongest wine in the Tang Dynasty. At this time, Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty is respected as Tian Khan by all grassland departments. The things of the Tang Dynasty are beautiful pronouns. There is no hesitation at present.


    "OK, give me five altars!" the head of the tribe waved his hand and immediately the herdsmen sent up ten horses.


    Tiewudun smiled and said, "Gu Yan''s leader is straightforward."


    Most of the herdsmen of the grassland tribe are addicted to alcohol. After tasting the dull horses, the herdsmen of the Guyan tribe were conquered one after another. Of course, each family was reluctant to exchange two horses. It was also possible for several families to jointly buy a jar of wine. As for how to distribute it, it was their own business.


    In this way, tiewu entered Guyan tribe and brought only 20 jars of stuffy horses. When he left, he took 40 horses.

 Chapter 252

    Although Mojia village shows that it is OK to trade cattle and horses for stuffy horses, tiewu just doesn''t mention it on the grassland and resolutely accepts only wine for horses.


    On the one hand, the price of grassland horses is slightly higher, on the other hand, the speed of horses is fast, and the turnover cycle is greatly shortened.


    Tiewu''s left hand exchanged the stuffy horse for a large number of horses from the tribe, immediately rushed to Jiuyuan County, exchanged the stuffy horse from the Mohist children waiting in Jiuyuan County, and rushed to the next tribe as soon as possible.


    In a short period of more than ten days, tiewu''s horse team expanded sharply, and Mojia village also transported nearly 100 horses to Chang''an city. Moreover, as tiewu continues to go deep into the prairie and the business continues to expand, the number of horses obtained by Mojia village will be more and more in the future.


    According to the alcohol tax of four taxes and one, Mojia village will hand in one horse for every four horses.


    Of course, as an institution at the level of the Ministry of civil affairs, it certainly can not accept this most primitive way of tax payment.


    With a stroke of pen, Dai Zhou directly removed the money and left the horse as a local tax to Chang''an County.


    "Xian Zun, this is the wine tax paid this time. Please accept it."


    Chang''an County Yamen, Xu Jie pointed to more than 20 horses behind him.


    "Hard work, shopkeeper!" said suluosheng with a smile.


    Horses are very valuable in the Tang Dynasty. Mojia village sent more than 20 horses at once, all of which are first-class grassland horses. How can we not make suluosheng happy and even speak politely.


    "The county Lord has broken the villain." Xu Jielian hurriedly said.


    As soon as Xu Jie left, Su Luosheng summoned Constable Cao.


    "The constable usually patrols hard. From now on, these horses will be handed over to the constable." Su county magistrate said.


    After a period of experiments, the city''s early warning system has played a great role. As soon as the alarm bell rings, the captors of Chang''an County set out at the first time, greatly improving the efficiency. The case solving rate of the whole Chang''an County is several times higher than before.


    In just a month or two, Chang''an County government relied on the early warning system to solve major cases repeatedly. Some thieves who used to be in a mess are now dead when they hear the alarm bell. The public security of the whole Chang''an County Government has greatly improved, which has greatly raised Su Luosheng''s face.


    However, there are many regrets that the thieves have disappeared when the captors arrive. In addition to Chang''an City, Chang''an County Magistrate also governs many villages with a long way to go. If the captors can be equipped with a large number of horses, they will be able to arrive at the scene in the shortest time. In time, the detection rate of Chang''an County will be the highest in the country.


    Of course, Su Luosheng wanted to add a sum to his political achievements. When the horses from Mojia village were sent, he thought of constable Cao at the first time.


    "Thank you, county magistrate!" Constable Cao said excitedly. With these horses, their hunting house is a change of gun.


    "Once the alarm rings, the constable must arrive in the shortest time. If there is any slack, the county will punish him severely." Su Luosheng snapped.


    Su Luosheng can achieve the position of Chang''an County. Of course, the charm carrot and stick,


    Constable Cao replied positively, "yes!"


    With more than 20 horses, the constable''s face suddenly soared. There were one horse for patrol. He proudly patrolled in Chang''an City, greatly reducing the workload and improving the efficiency, which attracted a lot of praise in Chang''an city.


    Su Luosheng couldn''t help but be proud of the perfect solution to the horse problem. According to this, Chang''an County will definitely be rated as the best in this year''s evaluation, only in terms of public security.


    However, Su Luosheng was happy too early. Only ten days later, the second batch of more than 30 horses were also sent to Chang''an County Government! Tiewu is on the prairie. The business is getting bigger and bigger, and more horses are sent.


    Suluosheng accepted the horse with mixed feelings.


    A few days later, more than 50 horses were sent from Mojia village.


    "The business of boring horses is so good in the grassland?" suluosheng was stunned.


    The master smiled bitterly and said: "the county Reverend misunderstood. According to the Mohist school, this is not the liquor tax on the prairie, but the liquor tax of western countries. This is from tuhun Valley... And this is from Tubo..."


    Su Luosheng found that this batch of breeds are diverse and messy. They are no longer the single grassland horses before.


    Tiewu''s hot business on the prairie immediately aroused the interest of Hu merchants. In addition to the prairie, there are many countries around Datang similar to the prairie.


    Since the dull horse can wait for the prairie to prevail, it can naturally make money in these countries, so many Hu merchants took action immediately. He pieced together a lot of horses. After exchanging stuffy horses with Mojia village, he immediately went back to seize the market as soon as possible.


    When Su Luosheng saw so many horses, he was no longer happy, but looked sad.


    So far, with the original horses, there are at least more than 120 horses in Chang''an County Government. The whole county government government is like a horse market. Horses cry constantly and horse dung is everywhere. And raising horses is also expensive. The daily consumption of these horses is a terrible number.


    "In the long run, Chang''an County Yamen may be dragged down by these horses."


    In the Mo mansion, suluosheng vomited bitterness to Merton.


    "What does Lord Sue mean?" said Merton.


    "Can Mojia village exchange horses for silver to pay taxes!" Su Luosheng said his purpose directly.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "Lord Su is joking. The alcohol tax of Mohist Ghana is four taxes and one, that is to say, Mohist village has three times as many horses as Chang''an County Government."


    Merton never thought that he would dislike more horses. In just a few months, he directly increased hundreds of horses. Now, the four-wheel carriages sold in Mojia village are directly matched with horses.


    "Lord Su can go to the West horse shop and ask if he can do it." Merton had an idea.


    Su Luosheng shook his head and said, "this is not feasible. When the Ministry of Civil Affairs allocates money, but the price of these horses is calculated according to the market price. The horse bank''s bid is too low."


    Su Luosheng didn''t think of this method, but what the horse bank wants is profit. Naturally, it is unwilling to buy and sell at par. Moreover, if suluosheng sells low, it is suspected of selling state property at a low price. Of course, suluosheng is not willing to give up this excuse.


    "Oh!"


    Merton immediately understood suluosheng''s concerns. These horses can''t be sold at a low price, but they can''t be wasted in Chang''an County Government.


    "If so, boy, I have a suggestion," Merton blurted out.


    "Lord Murdoch, please teach me!" suluosheng kept a low attitude. The reason why he came to Merton in person was to ask Merton to solve the problem for him.


    "The greatest function of horses is to take the place of walking. Few people can own horses or carriages, while ordinary people rely on walking." Merton nodded.


    Su Luosheng nodded and said, "but this move of Mojia village will certainly be able to introduce a large number of horses from the grassland. Over time, I believe that ordinary people will also be able to own horses."


    Merton shook his head and said, "Lord Su is very kind. Even if you can afford horses, it costs a lot to raise horses, and only a few people have horses. For example, in Chang''an City, most of them can only travel on foot."


    Su Luosheng suddenly said, "Lord Mo means to let these horses take the place of ordinary people."


    Merton nodded and said with a smile, "Lord Su is wise, but a horse can''t carry more than one person. If you change to a carriage, you can certainly carry more than ten people. Adults can think about how much it will benefit the people if hundreds of horses pull the carriage and drive along the established route to send the traveling Chang''an citizens to their destination one by one."


    Su Luosheng''s eyes brightened and his breath stagnated.


    "This is an idea of Mohist school, which calls it public transportation system," Merton said with a smile.

 Chapter 253

    "Public transport system!"


    Hearing this name, Su Luosheng knew that his trip was worth it today.


    It is not a simple thing that can be called a system by the Mohist school. The last city wide early warning system included Mohist hospital, fire administration and county government. It had just run, and it played an unimaginable role, which shocked everyone.


    If the city''s public transport system can play half the effect of the city''s early warning system, it will certainly benefit him for life.


    "I don''t know how the public transport system works, but I''d like to ask Lord Mo for advice." it''s related to his future, so suluosheng naturally doesn''t feel ashamed to ask.


    "I don''t deserve your advice," Morton said humbly. "Let me give you a simple example. If an ordinary citizen wants to walk from the west gate to the east gate of Chang''an City, it takes more than half an hour."


    Su Luosheng nodded and walked at least ten miles from the west gate to the east gate, but it would take a long time to walk. If he had something, it would take longer.


    Merton nodded and said, "if there is a specially manned carriage in Chang''an City from the west gate to the south gate, I''m afraid a quarter of an hour will be enough. After the boy''s bus carriage reaches the east gate, you can pull the passengers from the east gate back."


    "Wonderful!" Su Luosheng said excitedly, the gates of Chang''an city are the most crowded places. If there is such a manned carriage, it will be very popular.


    "In this way, the county government''s horse will have a purpose?" Merton said.


    Suluosheng said thoughtfully, "Lord mohou means that the county government will buy this public carriage."


    "What a coincidence? Mojia village just made a special four-wheel bus for carrying people. One car can take 16 people at the same time. Lord Su is really lucky." Merton looked like you made a lot of money.


    Suluosheng suddenly snorted coldly. Unexpectedly, Merton was waiting for him here, but now is not the time to care about it.


    "What if the bus is full of people? What about the later people?" asked sulloson.


    Merton said: "of course, we can only wait for the next bus. When the public transportation system has the most people in the morning, middle and evening, we can arrange several more cars to start at the same time, and usually start a bus carriage every quarter of an hour. In this way, we can certainly solve the problem of people''s travel in Chang''an city."


    "What about the people who want to take the bus and carriage?" asked suluosheng with a frown.


    "We can set up several fixed stop signs in each square for Chang''an citizens to get on and off halfway," Merton added. "Moreover, in the bus system envisaged by the boy, at least every street in Chang''an city should have a bus carriage. In this way, no matter where you are in Chang''an City, you can reach any place in Chang''an City by turning the bus carriage once. Lord Su can think about how convenient it will be for Chang''an people."


    "Hundreds of houses are like a go game, and twelve streets are like vegetable beds."


    This is a poem in Bai Juyi''s "climbing Guanyin terrace and looking at the city". It vividly compares the layout of Chang''an city. Each street is horizontal and vertical, which can bring great convenience to the setting of bus carriages. Chang''an City in Tang Dynasty is simply the most suitable city for building public transportation.


    "Every street has to have a bus route. How many horses does it take?" suluosheng opened his mouth. He suddenly found himself in a dilemma.


    On the one hand, once the public transportation system is completed, he will certainly make progress in the future, which will be the biggest political achievement of his life. On the other hand, the investment is too large. In case of any mistake, I''m afraid he will lose his money.


    There are 12 East-West streets and nine north-south streets in 108 square of Chang''an City, that is, as long as there are 21 bus lines, each bus line needs to buy 10 bus carriages, and a bus carriage needs only two horses. In this way, Chang''an County government needs at least 420 horses.


    "Four hundred and twenty horses!" county magistrate Su only hated his good arithmetic.


    "No, Chang''an County government can''t afford so many horses." Su Luosheng''s eyes are dull and his mouth is 420. Even if he eats, he can eat poor Chang''an County.


    Merton didn''t have a good way: "of course, Chang''an County government doesn''t have to pay."


    Su Luosheng wondered, "where does the money come from?"


    Now he has a headache caused by the terrible consumption of 100 horses in Chang''an County.


    "It''s natural to spend money by car. The money for raising horses naturally comes from people by car." Merton said naturally.


    Su Luosheng slightly calculated that there were nearly 100 horses in Chang''an County, and there will be more and more in the future. Over time, it is not impossible to gather 420 horses.


    In this way, you can save money for horses, and the bus operation can save money for horses. I''m afraid the only need is carriage money.


    "This is a special four-wheel coach for transporting people. The body alone is twice that of an ordinary carriage. The price is 30 yuan." Merton instantly turned into a perfect salesman.


    "Thirty Guan?"


    Su Luosheng frowned gently. The 21 routes in Chang''an City need at least 210 vehicles. In this way, it needs at least 6000 yuan.


    Seeing that Su Luosheng''s face changed greatly, Merton quickly remedied: "of course, Chang''an city can''t invest so many buses at one time. Lord Su can first choose a street as a pilot. With the increase of the number of horses in the future, it''s not too late to add four-wheel carriages."


    Su Luosheng''s face slowed slightly. Chang''an city is the pilot of the tax sharing system. Of course, he understands the meaning of the pilot.


    "In this way, the first batch of only ten four-wheel buses is enough," Merton said.


    Ten four-wheel buses, three hundred through, are also within the bearing range of Chang''an County. Of course, if you don''t spend Chang''an County''s money like horses, it''s naturally the best.


    "It''s said that Mohist has always been advertised. Before, the four-wheel carriage in Mohist village was so popular, but the four-wheel carriage donated by Mohist village to Mohist hospital contributed greatly. If Chang''an County took the lead in adopting the four-wheel bus produced by Mohist village, would it be the same as the ambulance in Mohist hospital?" suluosheng looked at Merton with a smile.


    Merton immediately smiled bitterly. Of course, he understood suluosheng''s meaning. Since the Mojia village can give an ambulance to the Mexican hospital for free, it should also show for the pilot of the public transport system. Merton found that he underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. They are just a little less knowledgeable. Their real ability is to dump Merton, a house man of later generations, for a few blocks.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "Lord Su has a good eloquence. Well, Mojia village can donate ten four-wheel buses to Chang''an County."


    The three most common models in later generations are passenger cars, trucks and private cars. The bus market is vast, so it''s also cost-effective to pay ten four-wheel buses as advertising fees.


    "I don''t know where the county magistrate is going to choose as a pilot," Merton asked.


    Su Luosheng smiled and had already had an ideal pilot in his heart.


    That''s rosefinch street.

 Chapter 254

    Rosefinch street.


    It is the central axis street of Chang''an City, from the Zhuque gate of the imperial city to the Mingde gate of the south gate. Taking this as the central axis, Chang''an city is divided into two.


    Zhuque street was 150 steps wide and 10 miles long. It was the only street that could enter Chang''an city at that time. A large number of foreign envoys and businessmen entered Chang''an City from Zhuque street every day.


    It can be said that Zhuque street is the most prosperous street in Chang''an City and even the whole Tang Dynasty. It is also the only place for officials to enter the palace every day.


    If Su Luosheng wants to make political achievements, he is regarded by Li Shimin and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Zhuque street is naturally the best choice.


    The sun rises, a new day.


    Chang''an city is as busy as usual. A large number of businessmen poured into Chang''an City and began a busy day, running for their own livelihood.


    However, many careful people found that on the wooden poles of the city''s early warning system on both sides of Zhuque street, a simple sign with place names would be hung every half a mile or so.


    "Kaihua square, Anyi square, Daxingshan temple, little wild goose pagoda............."


    Each sign will write the famous buildings or prominent landmarks nearby, and then directly write the name of the square city.


    "Bus stop sign."


    Many people chew this new word and don''t know why.


    The south gate is upstairs.


    Merton and Sullivan stand side by side.


    Where did Su Luosheng have the experience of making a bus? He was completely confused. Merton simply did it to the end and took over all the planning.


    Standing on the city tower, Merton couldn''t help feeling very much. He thought that when he first entered Chang''an City, he had a conflict with the guard of Nancheng gate. It didn''t occur to him that he was invited to the city tower of Nancheng gate as a VIP in less than a year.


    "Mindermen!"


    Suluosheng was slightly excited and looked at the big three words under the city tower and the neat five brand-new four-wheel buses.


    The four-wheel coach is the latest product of Mojia village. It puts aside other messy designs and strives to maximize the passenger capacity. Therefore, each four-wheel coach is more than twice as large as an ordinary four-wheel coach.


    According to Merton''s plan, he originally planned to build a number of bus stops on Zhuque street. However, suluosheng couldn''t wait that long. He didn''t want to let nearly 100 horses eat and drink freely and waste money in Chang''an County Government.


    On the other hand, in this pilot, Chang''an County government didn''t spend a penny at all. It was impossible for Su Luosheng to pay for the construction of the bus station. At least before the results of the bus system appeared, he didn''t see rabbits and spread eagles.


    Merton had no choice but to hang up several signs as bus stop signs and complete the bus structure as soon as possible. Today, the one month free period of bus trial operation is to cultivate the market and let the people of Chang''an city accept the new thing of bus carriage. When people are used to taking the bus, I''m afraid they don''t want to travel on foot.


    "And in the future, with more and more bus routes, the people of Chang''an city will definitely take the bus carriage as the first choice."


    Suluosheng couldn''t help breathing. He couldn''t help thinking of the bus blueprint planned by Merton for a long time. As long as he took a transfer, he could reach anywhere in Chang''an City, which was a revolutionary change for ordinary people.

 Chapter 255

    The time has come,


    With the sound of a bell, the first four-wheel bus loaded with pedestrians set out from the Nancheng gate. This public transport system, called the travel revolution by later generations, first appeared in Datang.


    At the same time, in front of the rosefinch gate, the same four-wheel bus loaded with pedestrians starts from north to south.


    The two carriages drive relative to each other. At each stop, pedestrians get on and get off. In this way, it can ensure that the four-wheel carriages will not be empty.


    Once the bus appeared in Chang''an City, it immediately caused an uproar.


    The four wheeled carriage is a luxury product. Where can ordinary people have the opportunity to take it? After the news that the bus on Zhuque street is free of charge spread, not only the users of this street, but also the people of other streets can''t help coming to experience it. Anyway, they don''t want money.


    As a result, the bus on Zhuque street is very popular, and it is often full. Fortunately, Merton has expected this and made preparations in advance, which ensures the normal operation of the bus and carriage.


    Fast and convenient.


    After the experience of the citizens of Chang''an City, they were full of praise. One spread ten, ten spread a hundred, and soon it was known all over the city.


    At the same time, the ink magazine publicized the concept of public transport, which made the concept of public transport popular in the sky.


    "Why is there only rosefinch street? My home is on the fourth cross street. How many buses and carriages should there be if there is a bus here!" someone regretted.


    "What is the fourth street? It''s more needed in East and West?"


    The East and West cities are the most active commercial places in Chang''an City, with a huge flow of people every day. At this time, the place where Zhuque Avenue gets off the most is the station near the East and West cities.


    "There are many people who have to take a bus at the East Gate..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Some people appreciate it, some people regret it, and of course some people are not optimistic about buses and carriages.


    "It''s just a cry at a loss. Who doesn''t sit for free? If you charge money, I see how many people still sit."


    At this time, the popularity of public transport and free is indeed one of the reasons. Although there is not much money, it is not too much money after all. It is unknown whether the bus carriage can succeed after charging.


    Half a month passed quickly. In a flash, it reached the first day of the official operation of the bus carriage.


    "It''s impossible that no one is sitting. Don''t worry, brother mo. there''s a little brother. Even if there''s no one, I''ll help you hold up the scene." in front of the little wild goose pagoda, Qin Huaiyu put his chest and waved a handful of Kaiyuan Tongbao in his hand.


    Chumo and Chumo also nodded heavily and stretched out their hands. They were also full of Kaiyuan Tongbao.


    Merton immediately had no choice but to help his forehead and said painfully, "so you took me to take the bus."


    "If it''s not enough, brother, I promise to bring the students from the Imperial College and ensure that every car is full," Chumo said boldly.


    Merton said angrily, "no! Besides, this dress doesn''t look like a person taking a bus."


    Qin Huaiyu was dressed in a robe, a belt and a beautiful jade. The whole childe dressed up. It didn''t look like taking a bus.


    "A penny can''t defeat a hero, and heroes sometimes fall into trouble."


    Wei Chi Baolin is rarely humorous, but his black face can''t match the hero.


    Merton was speechless. He could see that these three people are just making fun today. Every time Merton makes new things, these three people have extraordinary interest.


    Soon, a four-wheel bus came quickly with the sound of clattering hoofs and stopped under the stop sign of the little wild goose pagoda.


    "Get off first and then get on. Please line up and get on!"


    A black groom in his thirties shouted loudly. These grooms are the most experienced grooms in Chang''an city specially invited by Chang''an County Government. Each has rich driving experience.


    After the people on the bus got off, Merton four lined up to get on the bus.


    "Please put in the coin automatically," shouted the coachman again.


    At the door of the bus carriage, a special cash box is just more than one person high. Four people put in a Kaiyuan Tongbao one by one. The money falls into the cash box, makes a loud collision sound, and then slides into the cash box.


    The loud voice is very harsh, and even the whole carriage can be heard clearly. In this way, whether pedestrians pay money or not can be heard clearly.


    The four wheeled carriage can only carry 16 people at most. In fact, Merton designed only eight seats and eight stations in order to reduce the weight and increase the long-term operation of the bus carriage.


    When Merton four got on the bus, there was only one seat left.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at each other and immediately understood the thoughts of other people''s hearts. He was preparing to rob. Yu Guang swept the people next to him and couldn''t help standing there.


    "Brother Mo, you''d better sit down!" the three pushed Morton out with a tacit understanding.


    Merton looked at the empty seat, and Li Shimin stared angrily at the three.


    "Young students, come and sit here!" Wei Zheng, an old man sitting next to Li Shimin, fell down from the well.


    Merton was almost crying. He didn''t expect to meet these two big men on patrol today.


    Su Luosheng chose the pilot in Zhuque street to show his merit in front of Li Shimin and other officials. However, he did get what he wanted, but Merton fell into the pit.


    At the moment, it happened that two old couples in their 60s got on the bus together. Merton had an idea and turned sideways and said, "boy, you''d better ask the old man to sit down!"


    "Thank you, young man!" the old man said gratefully, reaching out to help the old woman and let her sit down.


    "The young man is good. Please take the initiative to give up your seats to the old, the weak, the sick, the pregnant and the passengers with children." the black coachman shouted.


    The coachman in black shouted three times. Li Shimin found that all the people in the car were looking at him. Li Shimin was inexplicable. He turned around and saw that he was closest to the old man.


    Qin Huaiyu and others couldn''t help wiping a cold sweat for the black coachman. They were really fearless and asked Li Shimin to give up his seat in the street.


    The whole scene was suddenly silent.


    However, Li Shimin laughed, didn''t think so, and got up.


    "Please sit here, sir!"


    Li Shimin invited the father-in-law to his seat, but he stretched out his hand to pull the armrest of the carriage and stood with Qin Huaiyu.


    In an instant, Qin Huaiyu and the four immediately sat like a needle.


    I didn''t expect the reincarnation of the world. I can''t escape this disaster.


    Of course, they dare not let Li Shimin stand for a long time. Just after one stop, they get off one after another.


    "Please line up to get on the bus!"


    "Please put in the coin automatically!"


    "Please automatically...................."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the voice of the coachman in black, another group of passengers took the bus, and the four-wheel bus set sail again.


    "This is the public transport system! Good!" Li Shimin nodded slowly, looking at the Big Mac like carriage going away.

 Chapter 256

    "The people consciously queue up to get on the bus! This is the order of the Dharma."


    "Everyone has a penny, which ordinary people can afford. This is the universal love of Mohism."


    "The coachman doesn''t accept money, and the people automatically put in coins. This is the inaction of Taoism."


    "Bus seat, respect the old and love the young, this is the Confucian ethics!"


    Every time Wei Zheng said a word, his turbid eyes lit up a minute. Finally, he sighed and said, "the Mohist school has opened my eyes!"


    Merton suddenly Hao Ran. He didn''t expect that the bus carriage he came out for beating up was interpreted by Wei Zheng.


    "It''s just a boy''s mischievous move. I can''t help but praise Mr. Wei." Merton blushed. When he suggested the bus, he didn''t think of these things.


    "Of course, I did. I didn''t expect you to take the road to success. I''m small and small. I''m the grand plan of Mohism." Wei Zheng sighed.


    Li Shimin was also stunned. He just felt that the bus system was indeed extremely convenient, but he didn''t think about it at a deeper level. Now he thinks about it again, it''s really interesting.


    At this moment, the look in Merton''s eyes suddenly added some inexplicable meaning. In ancient times, one of the hundreds of schools of thought was not famous, and even mastering one would benefit people for life. However, the MOH family even studied the theory of the hundred schools of thought, and made little achievements. The bus and carriage took into account the four schools of Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism and law at the same time.


    Merton''s mind was shocked and his heart suddenly opened up. Most of what he did was based on the experience of later generations, which was not 100% in later generations.


    "Confucius once worshipped Lao Tzu as his teacher, Mozi followed Confucianism, and so did Legalists. A hundred schools may be different, but knowledge is no different. Boy, I once heard a wise man say that no matter black or white cats, as long as they catch mice, they are good cats. Similarly, the hundred school theory is the same. As long as it is beneficial to the people and the Tang Dynasty, it is a good theory. It is worth learning. How can we use it as a portal See and shut out, "Merton thought slightly.


    Qin Huaiyu, who was on one side, couldn''t help admiring him. He didn''t know how Merton''s head grew. This flattery was absolutely amazing.


    "The words are rough and the reason is not rough. The wise man has the meaning of returning to nature." Wei Zheng sighed. He naturally understood the value of this remark all his life.


    Li Shimin also nodded slightly, and Merton''s words were in his heart.


    "It''s worthwhile for me to send you to the Imperial College. It seems that you haven''t wasted your efforts in the past six months." Li Shimin directly took the credit for Merton''s progress on himself and chose to forget that Li Shimin sent Merton to the Imperial College to experiment with the catfish effect.


    "I dare not take credit for it. It''s all the credit of Lord su. If it weren''t for the implementation, the bus carriage wouldn''t appear so soon." of course, Merton didn''t forget to show his credit to county magistrate su.


    "Su Luosheng!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, "I''m afraid you don''t know! Su Luosheng had already played a memorial to prepare for the construction of public transportation ten days ago and asked the imperial court to allocate funds to establish the public transportation system of the whole city."


    Merton couldn''t help but open his mouth. He didn''t expect that suloxon would give full play to his Iron Rooster''s character.


    I''m afraid that''s why Li Shimin appeared here today. He personally inspected the practicability of the bus carriage, but fortunately he didn''t disappoint him.


    Now that he has made an on-the-spot investigation, Li Shimin will certainly not stay here for a long time. With a move, a very humble four-wheel carriage came quietly.


    The carriage was insignificant, but it was pulled by four horses. It was obviously extremely heavy. It was obviously the safest carriage in the world made of Wood King iron birch sent by Merton himself.


    Xi Junmai, the coachman, reached out to open the door and greeted Li Shimin and Wei Zheng.


    The carriage started slowly. Wei Zheng turned his head and looked out the window of the back car. The four Merton, who were still respectful, nodded and praised: "the young students are good!"


    "Just a few skin monkeys! They still need polishing!" Li Shimin said, but there was a trace of satisfaction in the corners of his eyes.


    After the official operation of Zhuque Avenue, the people of Chang''an city did not reduce the use of four-wheel carriages because of charges. After all, the bus carriages are convenient and fast, which greatly improves the travel efficiency and saves a lot of time.


    After running for more than ten days, everything was running normally. Soon, the daily income was enough to support the horses and coachman.


    "Dong Weng is very happy. The three provinces have finally passed the public transport system. Dong Weng is right!" said the master with a happy face in the Chang''an County Yamen.


    When courtiers go to and from the court, they have to go through rosefinch Avenue. Naturally, they understand the operation mode of buses and carriages. Naturally, they know that this is a great good thing for the country and the people.


    Moreover, in terms of money, the Ministry of the people''s Republic of China has collected the land tax, plus the alcohol tax in Mojia village, which is when the National Treasury is full and the money is sufficient,


    Moreover, the public transport system was amazing. The whole hall passed one by one quickly, and the money arrived quickly.


    "It''s a good opportunity for dongweng to show his skills at the right time and place." shiye said excitedly. According to his idea, since the bus carriage experiment was successful. Then immediately lay routes throughout the city and achieve results in the shortest time.


    Su Luosheng shook his head and said, "it''s not urgent at this time, but it''s safe to come."


    He knows that the reason why Zhuque street can succeed is that this street itself is the city center, there are many business trips, and naturally there is more demand for buses and carriages.


    "Dongweng''s name! The prosperous place is nothing more than the East and West cities and the major city gates." the master suddenly said.


    Suluosheng nodded knowingly.


    With the money of the Ministry of the people, Su Luosheng changed the nature of the Iron Rooster and directly purchased a full 60 bus carriages from Mojia village. Around the East and West cities and major city gates, he laid four horizontal, three vertical and seven routes to roughly frame the public transport system of Chang''an city.


    Because Su Luo Sheng chooses is the essence area of Changan City, each route opens once, that can be overcrowded, before the ordinary citizen traveling, mostly walks, moreover the activity scope is extremely limited.


    The street leading to the bus route obviously feels that there are many more customers, especially in the shops near the stop sign. The power of the bus system appears for the first time.


    "It''s a pity that the reputation of the public transport system has been occupied by the mojiazi." the master said regretfully.


    "The Mohist School got its name. The county got benefits and each got his own place." suluosheng said with satisfaction.


    Since Merton became famous in Chang''an City, most of them rely on poetry, Qu Yuanli, waterwheel and artificial incubation technology, which are enough to change the Tang Dynasty, and most of them benefit from rural areas. As for the citizens of Merton hospital, they will also be attributed to doctors.


    At this moment, the citizens of Chang''an city feel the benefits of Mohism and the influence of Mohism for the first time.


    At the same time, Wei Zheng''s evaluation of Merton was also spread through Qin Huaiyu''s mouth.


    "The road to success."


    As soon as this evaluation came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the Imperial College.

 Chapter 257

    He also studied hundred schools of thought.


    It is not that no one has paid attention to this in history. The once famous miscellaneous artists are the representatives of it.


    "Combining Confucianism and Mohism, combining names and methods" is the core idea of zajia.


    "Hahaha, the MOH family is beyond their ability. They even want to emulate the miscellaneous family. Don''t you know that the miscellaneous family that was in the wind and cloud in those days has long disappeared now." Liu Yinian, the National Academy of Sciences, said sarcastically.


    All the doctors are familiar with history and naturally know the history of miscellaneous scholars. Since LV Buwei, miscellaneous scholars have declined and disappeared faster than Mohism.


    "What brother Liu said is very true. Kong Sheng''s knowledge is the supreme principle of heaven and earth. If we can learn one or two in our poor life, we will be able to benefit our whole life. There we need to learn other hundred schools of knowledge," said Dr. Guozi.


    What Dr. Guozi said represents the aspirations of most Confucian students in Guozijian. They have never looked at other hundred theories in their hearts.


    The farmhouse is just a group of mud legs, the Legalists are all cruel officials, and the Mohist school is just a group of Ranger craftsmen. And Taoism, yin and Yang.


    Except for the special status of strategists, others were comprehensively suppressed by Confucianism, and even strategists could not escape the control of Confucianism after the Tang Dynasty.


    The low status of generals in the Song Dynasty and the military supervision system in the Ming Dynasty... Are tears.


    After listening, Shen Hongcai couldn''t help shaking his head and retorted, "the miscellaneous school itself has no theory, just like water without a source and trees without roots. Even if it prospers for a while, it won''t be long-term, but what about Mohism?"


    People can''t help but be awed. Mohism is different from a groundless miscellaneous school. It has its own classics and leaders. Although it has experienced decline, the momentum of rejuvenation has already appeared. If you also study the theory of a hundred schools, it will be even more unstoppable.


    The doctors of the Imperial College were immediately divided into two schools. One school thought that it was absurd to concurrently cultivate a hundred schools of thought. The Mohist school would certainly suffer its own consequences, and the lessons of miscellaneous schools were not far away.


    A small number led by Shen Hongcai think that Mohism may go out of a different road, and the public transport system in front of them is the best example.


    "Well, how about Mohism? It''s their own business at that time? We just need to stick to our original heart!" Kong Yingda said.


    What the Mohists know and do now is to stick to the way of things, which does not involve imperial politics and does not threaten Confucianism. However, seeing the rapid development of Mohism, Confucianism is almost standing still. Kong Yingda is a little worried.


    "Perhaps his five classics of justice has accelerated." Kong Yingda thought in her heart.


    Kong Yingda had long planned to compile the five classics of justice. Since the Pre-Qin Dynasty, many Confucians have annotated Confucian classics, especially in the Wei, Jin, southern and Northern Dynasties, Confucianism was divided into southern and Northern learning, while in the early Tang Dynasty, Confucianism was full of mountains and criticized each other.


    In particular, after Merton formulated punctuation marks, Kong Yingda found that there were indeed many ambiguities and disputes in Confucian classics, and had long had the idea of compiling the justice of the five classics,


    Moreover, Kong Yingda himself is a descendant of Confucius, and it is even more justifiable for him to come forward. Originally, the compilation of the five classics of justice in history began in the 16th year of Zhenguan. Now, stimulated by the Mohist school, the compilation of the five classics of justice was nearly ten years earlier.


    The road to success has not only aroused heated discussion among Guozi prison doctors, but also caused some uproar among many Guozi prison students.


    The expression of a group of students looking at Merton suddenly added some inexplicable meaning. Originally, Merton, a Mohist child, was mixed with many Confucian children, which was very incompatible.


    I didn''t expect Merton to find another way to build hundreds of schools and crush people directly at the level.


    "Brother Mo''s mind is really admired by Kong," Kong huisuo exclaimed.


    Although Merton is said to be the son of Mohism and Kong huisuo is the orthodox son of Confucianism, they also sympathize with each other, moving from opposition to confidant.


    "Stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade. All schools have their own uniqueness. So knowledge is in front of us. Why don''t we learn?" Merton asked.


    Kong huisuo and a group of Guozijian students suddenly looked embarrassed. Before that, they focused on studying Confucianism. They couldn''t see other hundred schools of thought. Even if it was arithmetic and law, if it wasn''t one of the compulsory subjects of Guozijian, I''m afraid they wouldn''t even have the interest to take a look.


    "Hum! It''s just stealing his knowledge, but it''s shameless to be complacent here." suddenly, a voice came insidiously.


    They followed the prestige and saw a imperial college student in royal clothes looking at Merton.


    "Wei Si''an! You should keep your mouth clean. What''s the matter to steal his knowledge?" Qin Huaiyu suddenly stood up and said.


    Wesan


    When Merton heard the name, he suddenly realized that some time ago, the Mohist village had a big battle with the grain merchants, but the Mohist had severely offended the Wei family. It is obvious that this person must come from the Wei family in Chang''an.


    Wei Si''an is a direct descendant of the Wei family in the south of the city. He is not afraid of Qin Huaiyu. He bowed his head and said, "why am I wrong? He is a descendant of the Mohist school. He entered the Imperial College to study Confucianism. At the same time, he also took a hundred theories to make profits for his Mohist school, and cherished his Mohist theory. Isn''t it shameless? What is it?"


    Wesan''s words are unreasonable, but in this era, the relationship between teachers and successors is very attractive. The most important label on Merton is the children of Mohism, and it is impossible to change to other 100 schools.


    At this time, it is always a little inappropriate to use the theories of other hundred schools.


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help getting angry. He didn''t expect that Wei Si''an was so insidious that he attacked directly from Merton''s identity as a Mohist child.


    However, Merton was not surprised. Since he entered the Imperial College, as long as there will be today''s criticism, he smiled: "Mr. Wei seems high sounding, but you have forgotten one thing. Kong Sheng once said that education is without class, but he once said that he can''t teach hundreds of children, but Mr. Wei seems to have made a different comment on this without authorization. It is said that the wine worship Lord is compiling the five classics of justice, Mr. Wei can stop this task and leave a name in history in the future."


    When Wei Si settled down, his face turned red and said forcefully, "Kong Sheng really didn''t say that. You, a son of Mohism, have made contributions to Confucianism. How can you not be suspected of stealing the theory."


    Merton sneered and said, "if Mr. Wei wants to, Mr. Mo will offer all the Mohist classics. No matter how much Mr. Wei gets from it, the Mohists will not care."


    Wei Si''an said proudly, "Kong Sheng''s knowledge is enough for students to benefit all their lives. Who has time to learn Mohist theory?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "brother Wei comes from the Wei family in the south of the city. I wonder if the Wei family in the south of the city has used the Qu Yuan plow, columbine, waterwheel and well killing in the Mojia village."


    When Wei Si settled down, he tightened his heart and said, "this is a family affair. I am not involved."


    "Has Mr. Wei ever eaten Mohist cuisine and likes fried dishes?" Merton added.


    "Can Mr. Wei take a four-wheel carriage?"


    "Have you ever eaten or used ice in summer?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Every time Merton said a word, wesan''s head dropped a few points, and finally he covered his face and walked away.


    People suddenly realized that unconsciously, the influence of Mohism has quietly spread to every corner and penetrated into everyone''s life bit by bit.

 Chapter 258

    The MOH family''s practice of concurrently cultivating a hundred schools soon spread from the Imperial College to the literary circles of Chang''an city. The hundred school theory, which had been silent for thousands of years, was pushed to the forefront of the storm again.


    Some people sneer and think that this is nothing and absurd. The example of bus and carriage is just an example.


    Someone thought deeply. It has long been difficult for literati to make achievements in their articles after hundreds of schools. Maybe it is a good idea to find another way to cultivate hundreds of schools.


    Some depressed and frustrated scholars are greatly moved. Since the traditional method can''t succeed, there may be other surprises if you try it.


    Some people flatter, others scoff.


    The whole literary world of Chang''an city is calm on the surface, but it is turbulent privately.


    In the Mo mansion.


    Li Chengqian looked at the rows of books of hundreds of scholars in Merton''s study, picked up a copy of Lu''s spring and autumn and turned it over. He couldn''t help but sigh: "brother Mo is a great talent! You can''t be as clever as you!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "brother Gaoming, you''re welcome. It''s not the first of my little brother to concurrently cultivate a hundred schools. It''s just picking up people''s teeth and wisdom. Brother Gaoming is also a part-time practitioner of a hundred schools."


    With a flash in his eyes, Li Chengqian asked, "brother Mo, how do you understand this?"


    Merton said, "Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty once said:" the Han family has its own system. It is originally a tyrant. This is the way the royal family has always ruled the country. I don''t believe brother Gaoming''s knowledge is just Confucian classics. "


    As the crown prince, Li Chengqian was carefully trained by Li Shimin as his successor. Naturally, all aspects of his subjects should be covered.


    "Brother Mo misunderstood. Although Gao Ming learned a lot, he only dabbled a little. He can''t compare with brother Mo who also studied a hundred schools." Li Chengqian waved his hand.


    At the moment, Confucianism is the orthodox thought. As Prince Li Chengqian, it is natural to maintain the consistency of orthodox thought.


    "External Confucianism and internal Dharma are the ruling methods adopted by all dynasties, and there is no taboo," Merton said directly.


    On the surface, Confucianism is respected, while the actual operation depends on legalist thought, while Taoist thought is mostly adopted at the beginning of the founding of the country to recuperate.


    Now, shortly after the founding of the Tang Dynasty and after Li Tang thought he was Lao Tzu, the trace of Taoism is more obvious.


    "Outside Confucianism, inside law, economy is based on Tao."


    Li Chengqian was also a wise man. His eyes lit up and thought deeply when he heard the speech.


    "Brother Mo is right in his words! Rao is right. Just because brother Mo has broken the door view, it is beyond the ordinary people." Li Chengqian said.


    It was royal education that he dabbled in a hundred schools, while Merton, a genuine son of Mohism, took great courage to study a hundred schools.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "my little brother, this is also out of helplessness. The Mohist school is already on the edge of life and death. If it is complacent at this time, it will be self destruction."


    "An open Mohist school?" Li Chengqian said quietly. Then he remembered Merton''s slogan. He thought that Merton''s opening was to let the Mohist School cooperate with a hundred schools. Unexpectedly, he underestimated Merton''s mind.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "yes, open! Only when the Mohists abandon their views and blend with the theories of hundreds of schools can there be cooperation, otherwise everything is just a castle in the air?"


    "Castles in the air, what are the allusions?" Li Chengqian was puzzled when he heard this word for the first time.


    Merton explained, "this is a Buddhist fable in Tianzhu. It says that there was a rich man who was very stupid. He once saw another rich man who had a three story building that was very beautiful, so he wanted to build one, so he asked the craftsman to start construction. The next day, the craftsman dug the foundation and laid bricks on the ground. The rich man asked," what are you doing? "


    The craftsman replied, "I''m laying the foundation and making the bottom layer first." the rich man shook his head and said, "I don''t want to go down two layers, just the third layer." everyone laughed at the speech. The rich man was stupid. I don''t know if there are no one or two layers, no matter how skillful the craftsman can build a castle in the air. "


    Li Chengqian thought deeply and couldn''t help nodding in praise: "I didn''t expect Tianzhu''s knowledge to be so wise."


    "The knowledge in this world is more than ten million. Not only all schools of thought have their own strengths, but also all the ancient civilizations outside the Tang Dynasty are bright and prosperous. How can it be a theory and be universal." Merton sniffed.


    Li Chengqian was slightly silent. Of course, he knew that Merton''s family theory referred to Confucianism. As the crown prince of the current Dynasty, although he was intelligent and his vision was naturally different from that of ordinary people, he also vaguely realized that Confucianism also had various defects. It was not possible to rule the world with a half Analects.


    Li Chengqian naturally heard that Merton once said several ancient civilizations, and he also knew that in the Far West, there was a country that was not inferior to the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Chengqian looked around and saw no one around. He hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and asked, "what if I find great defects in some theories when I am concurrently studying 100 schools!"


    The mood of moton moved, solemnly, saying, "take the essence and go to it."


    Li Chengqian was shocked when he heard the speech.


    "Wise to be taught!" Li Chengqian solemnly saluted Merton.


    With the success of the trial operation of the seven bus carriages in Chang''an County, it added another evidence for Mo Jiazi''s concurrent cultivation of the hundred school theory. For a while, the books of the hundreds of schools in Chang''an City sold well again.


    Moreover, with the operation of the bus and carriage, its advertising role is once again powerful. Chang''an city is the focus of the Tang Dynasty. There is an endless stream of business trips, which has directly spawned the industry specialized in soliciting customers to Beijing, especially between Chang''an City and Luoyang.


    With its huge passenger capacity, four-wheel buses have directly moved these businessmen who specialize in pulling people. Ordinary carriages can only pull up to seven or eight people, while four-wheel buses can directly double, at least 16 people.


    The four-wheel bus is naturally different from the bus carriage. All the original standing positions are converted into seats. Even the walkway is made into folding stools. If you don''t pity the horsepower, 20 people can pull it.


    In the champion building, all the giants of the bus industry in Chang''an city are concentrated here. There is a precedent of Mohist wine. This time, the invitation of Mohist is very smooth.


    However, at the moment, the bus giants in Chang''an city are frowning and talking about a topic one after another


    "Four wheel bus and intercity bus system!"


    Fixed point departure, station construction, horses do not change trains. A new idea made them feel that the trip was worth it.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, Xu once studied your soliciting mode. If you''re not polite, it can be described as extremely chaotic. Families compete for customers and increase money halfway. The biggest problem is that the speed is extremely slow. It takes three or five days to travel from Chang''an city to Luoyang. It''s a waste of time." Xu Jie had his last experience and talked freely, The bus giants were ashamed.


    "If you adopt the Mohist four-wheel bus and intercity bus system, you can not only more than double the solicitation volume, but also divide the time period and start every half an hour to avoid vicious competition."


    "Of course, you can continue to use the original pony, but if you use a four-wheel bus, you can reach your destination in the shortest time. You can save a lot of money for meals in the hotel, not to mention comfortable seats. I think the price is a little higher, and I think some people will accept it! Xu promises that the profits of each family can certainly be doubled."


    Everyone has a steelyard in their mind. Compared with ordinary carriages, four-wheel buses have great advantages. If they don''t take the lead in adopting them, I''m afraid they will have no place in the future.


    With the final accounts in their hearts, four-wheel buses soon sold well.

 Chapter 259

    "Western regions event?" Merton frowned and looked at the invitation in front of him.


    Xu Jie explained: "this is jointly organized by businessmen from the western regions of the western city. Ten days later, they will participate in the western region event in Chang''an city. This is an invitation from tiewu."


    At this time, tiewu was the largest partner of Mohist outside the territory. In a short time, tiewu sold the stuffy horses of Mohist village to the whole prairie, bringing a large number of horses to Mohist. Of course, its own strength also expanded sharply.


    The western regions event was one of his initiators. Naturally, he was not qualified to see Merton, so he entrusted Xu Jie to send an invitation.


    Merton suddenly realized that the Mohist ink technology exhibition had achieved great success, which greatly inspired the Hu merchants in the western regions who had been scattered before. He even prepared to imitate the ink technology exhibition and hold a grand event in the western regions, so as to expand the influence of Hu merchants.


    "In addition, these Hu merchants also spent a lot of money on advertising in ink magazines. These Hu merchants are willing to spend money," Xu Jie said with a smile.


    "This investment is nothing. Once the western regions event becomes famous, they can immediately reap dozens of times in return," Morton said.


    Merton knows how profitable the silk road is. Silk of the same weight is equivalent to gold of the same weight. There are ten caravans that can safely reach the Tang Dynasty on the silk road. Rao is so. There are still countless Hu merchants coming thousands of miles. Every Western businessman who returns alive from the Silk Road is a wealth legend.


    "The owner is interested in participating. It is said that there are countless jewels at this year''s western regions event." Xu Jie said.


    Merton shook his head and said, "these things are not good for the Mohists. Of course, the Mohists don''t need them, but I''m very interested in other things in the hands of Hu merchants in the western regions."


    Mohist philosophy and code of conduct is to serve the majority of ordinary people. Of course, Merton will not value the luxury that a few can enjoy.


    Before that, Merton had been pretending to be close to Mozi and claimed that Mohism had been silent for thousands of years and had secretly traveled to various countries in the western regions to cover up the fact of his passage. I believe that many people must want to confirm this. It is unknown whether the convening of the western region grand meeting and tie Wu''s invitation were a test.


    Instead of defending passively, it''s better to attack actively, which is the reason why Merton agreed to participate in the western regions event.


    Hu merchants who can travel to and from the Silk Road are extremely smart. Merton just replied to participate in the western region event and immediately spread all over Chang''an City in the shortest time.


    It''s not polite to say that Merton can be said to be a man of the moment in Chang''an city. In addition, the rumor that Merton is concurrently engaged in hundreds of schools not long ago has pushed Merton to the forefront of the storm.


    As soon as Merton announced his participation, he immediately caused a sensation in Chang''an City, and the effect of star effect was immediate.


    "Mozi is the new God of wealth in Chang''an city. Even he is interested in the grand event in the western regions?"


    "What''s the matter? When the Mohists have money, they naturally buy some jewelry to decorate the facade. It''s not a bad thing," someone said.


    "That''s not necessarily true. The Mohist school has always had the means to turn stone into gold. Could it be that there is any unknown opportunity to make a fortune at the western region event?" some people also suspected.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At the same time, the major commercial firms cooperating with Mojia village have announced to participate in the western regions event. The business of Mojia Zi in Chang''an city is a legend. I don''t know how many businessmen have made a fortune because of Mojia village.


    However, since Xu Jie became the foreign affairs manager of Mojia village, Mojia Zi has not been in public for a long time. It is a rare opportunity to see Mojia Zi. Of course, these businessmen should not miss it.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, you must help me. Now, Mojia village has to give priority to solving thousands of worries." Qian''s master followed Xu Jie, looking like begging.


    This group of Hu merchants are crazy. They have paid enough money for this western region event, booked in large quantities to solve thousands of worries, and paid in full.


    The Qian family leader and Zheng Xuanli were both surprised and distressed. Zheng Qian and his family had no choice but to go to Mojia village for help at the first time.


    It has to be said that Chang''an city''s demand for relieving thousands of worries is almost endless. This is only the need of the western region event. After the western region event, Hu merchants who are ready to return also take relieving thousands of worries as one of the necessary commodities.


    This kind of top-grade wine is not inferior to silk for Hu merchants. Once it is transported to the western regions, it will certainly increase its value dozens of times.


    "Brother Qian, don''t worry. This western region event is not only a grand event in Chang''an City, but also an opportunity to solve thousands of worries. Naturally, Mojia village won''t miss it." Xu Jie responded cheerfully.


    This is a matter of mutual benefit. Naturally, there is no possibility for Mojia village to refuse. Relieving thousands of worries can make it famous abroad and certainly drive the fame of Datang in China.


    "Thank you, shopkeeper Xu!" Qian said gratefully.


    Shopkeeper Qian felt how wise it was to cooperate with Zheng Xuanli to auction the distribution right of guanneidao at a high price. This is indeed a business that can make no loss, and it makes a lot of money.


    Department of education!


    Gongsun Yue finished his sword dance, and immediately applauded like thunder.


    However, Gongsun Yuexiang returned to the backstage sweating. Suddenly, a group of maids came forward to take off their makeup and serve him. As the most famous dancer in jiaosifang, gongsunyue''s status is popular.


    "Miss Gongsun, someone wants to see you!" a maid came to report.


    "If I don''t see you, I''ll say I''m tired!" Gongsun Yue waved and said.


    The maid''s face was: "but people say that she came on behalf of the Mohist school."


    "Mohist school!" Gongsun Yue was stunned.


    She couldn''t help thinking of the Mohist teenager in her heart, who changed her life with an unheard of painting skill.


    "Please come soon!" Gongsun Yue said eagerly.


    Soon, a middle-aged man, led by a maid, came in and saw Gongsun Yue arched his hands and said, "Xu Jie, the foreign affairs manager of Mojia village, has seen Gongsun girl."


    Xu Jie''s eyes brightened when he saw Gongsun Yue''s peerless face, but he immediately returned to normal. Xu Jie''s beauty, which had experienced the ups and downs of life, was not enough to make him out of control.


    "Mr. Xu is excused, and the little woman is ashamed of Mr. Xu''s gift." Gongsun Yue quickly returned the gift.


    Gongsun Yue was disappointed to see that some of the people were not the Mohist youth. However, she had been in the place of fireworks for a long time, and the news here was the most well-informed. Of course, she knew that Xu Jie was the most powerful assistant of the youth. Since Xu Jie could come to find himself, it must be the inspiration of the youth.


    "I don''t know what''s important for Mr. Xu to come here. I''ve received great kindness from Lord Mo, and I''ll help you if necessary." Gongsun yuelang said. Although she is a woman, she practices sword all the year round and has only a chivalrous spirit.


    Xu Jie nodded approvingly and said, "this is also a good thing for Gongsun. I wonder if Gongsun knows that Mohist wine can solve thousands of worries."


    "Of course, although this woman is not good at drinking, she has long heard of the name of relieving thousands of worries." Gongsun Yue said.


    In the education department workshop, there are many dignitaries. Naturally, the wine of relieving thousands of worries is indispensable.


    "Mojia village is going to find a celebrity to speak for thousands of worries. Gongsun''s sword dance is the best in Chang''an city." Xu Jie directly explained his intention.


    Merton had long planned to find a spokesman for solving thousands of worries. Among the people he knew, Gongsun month happened to be the most suitable, so there was this scene today.


    "Endorsement?" Gongsun Yue was confused and didn''t understand the meaning.


    Xu Jie explained: "it is Gongsun girl who, with her own image and dancing skills, travels all over the Tang Dynasty to promote the wine of relieving thousands of worries, so that more people can know and buy it."


    When Xu Jie first heard Merton explain the role of endorsement, he was not only shocked, but he didn''t expect such commercial behavior.


    Gongsun Yue was delighted when she heard the speech. Her face turned gray and her tears flashed in her eyes. Big drops of tears fell like rain: "I''m afraid the little woman is ashamed of master Mo''s great kindness. The little woman is a cheap nationality. She can''t get away from the teaching workshop, let alone walk around the Tang Dynasty."


    Xu Jie couldn''t help smiling and said, "this is the second reason why I came here. It''s to redeem Miss Gongsun."


    "Redemption?"


    Gongsun''s face was full of pear flowers and rain, and he was shocked.


    "Of course! The idea of Mohism is to love all living beings. Since Gongsun is about to endorse Mohist products, it is naturally a member of Mohism. Mohism will not let Gongsun continue to fall into the dust." Xu Jie said.


    Moreover, the image of relieving thousands of worries is excellent. Naturally, it will not be endorsed by a cheap dancer. Redemption is the most basic condition. With Merton''s current status and financial resources, it will not be a lot of trouble to redeem people from the church square. However, Merton did not let the church square suffer losses, but spent 3000 yuan to redeem Gongsun Yue from the church square.


    Looking at the deed of betrayal in her hand, Gongsun Yue couldn''t help crying with joy. Although Gongsun Yue''s status is respected at the moment, once she gets old and pale, her end will be very miserable, and it''s lucky to redeem her body at this time.


    "Young master Mo''s great kindness and kindness, the little woman will be broken to pieces and repay." Gongsun Yue said gratefully.


    Xu Jie nodded secretly. He was really the most affectionate person.


    "Gongsun, don''t be polite. The young master asked me to bring a word for the girl: the Mohist family redeems the girl, which is a matter of harmony and mutual benefit. You don''t need to take it to heart." Xu Jie repeated Merton''s original words.


    Merton from later generations, although unable to change the sex selling system of this era, can make his own struggle under the conditions of his ability.


    "Keep it in mind, little girl. I will try my best to travel all the roads of the Tang Dynasty and become famous in the Tang Dynasty to solve thousands of worries!" Gongsun Yue didn''t say much, but pressed the kindness in her heart to the bottom of her heart.


    Seeing Gongsun Yuezhi advance and retreat, Xu Jie nodded with satisfaction: "Miss Gongsun, don''t worry. The western region event in Chang''an City has already prepared the stage for the girl."


    The news that the Mohists redeemed Gongsun Yue for the double Jue sword dance, spoke with Gongsun Yue to solve thousands of worries, and was about to dance at a grand event in the western regions was like a typhoon in Chang''an city.


    For a while, the western region grand meeting and reconciliation of thousands of worries were the hottest topic in Chang''an city. The power of star effect appeared in Chang''an City for the first time.

 Chapter 260

    After experiencing new painting skills, Gong Sunyue''s reputation reached its peak in Chang''an city. However, Gong Sunyue only dances every day


    Once a song is played, the door is closed to thank the guests. People who are not easy can''t see it at all.


    However, the more so, Gongsun Yue''s worth is more prominent in Chang''an city. Chang''an city doesn''t know how many dignitaries are coveting Gong


    Sun Yue''s beauty.


    However, when Gongsun Yue became famous, the news of being redeemed by the MOH family came out. How can we not let everyone mourn


    Resentment.


    "Shameless lecherous man!"


    In the Imperial College, a group of imperial college students could not help gnashing their teeth when they saw Merton.


    No matter how far away Merton is, he can also ask about the strong sour smell. These people have long been jealous


    The imperial college students are respected and knowledgeable. They are the favorite guests of brothel women.


    Many students from the Imperial College are regular visitors to brothels. Talents and beauties complement each other and can raise the value of brothel women. If


    There are many people who paste money upside down when they meet a crazy brothel woman.


    Isn''t Mohist Zi and Gongsun Yue the best example? If it weren''t for a painting by Mohist Zi, Gongsun Yue wouldn''t be able to dominate the crowd.


    "It''s a shame for the imperial college students to be involved with brothel women!" Wei Si''an gnashed his teeth in his heart.


    He saw Gongsun Yue''s face and dancing skills in person. It was amazing. He never forgot it in his heart. Unexpectedly, he was redeemed by Merton.


    In fact, it''s more than Wei Sian. Even Qin Huaiyu has already bowed down to Gongsun Yue''s charm.


    "Merton, good boy, why can''t you see that your boy is so cowardly and for his own private interests


    If you want to, prepare a golden house to hide your charming. "Qin Huaiyu has a hatred of seizing his wife and doesn''t understand Dai Tian''s appearance


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin clenched their fists and forced them to come forward. They thought it was the three of them who asked Merton to watch the sword


    Dance, where even lead wolves into the house.


    Merton rolled his eyes silently and explained, "it''s not that I bought her, but that Mojia village asked her to speak for Shun


    He redeemed her. "


    "You think I''m a three-year-old child. It''s easy to cheat! You spent three thousand Guan just to let her sell wine?" Qin Huaiyu looked incredulous. Three thousand Guan and three million yuan were not a small amount. I think the three of them risked gambling in the Guozi prison for a little pocket money, but now, Merton even made thousands of Guan money, The gap should not be too big.


    "Don''t talk about me, it''s Mojia village! And it''s not Gongsun girl who sells wine, but the spokesman," Merton corrected helplessly.


    In this era, except for the top businessmen, I''m afraid they can''t understand the meaning of endorsement. In the eyes of ordinary people, ink


    It must be a secret that the family spent so much money to redeem Gongsun Yue,


    "Is there any difference? Miss Gongsun, that''s our dream lover. Now you have redeemed me. Why do you make me feel embarrassed?"


    Chumo looks like a restless teenager.


    "Isn''t it better, Miss Gongsun? This is a good family. If you want to, you can naturally pursue it boldly." Merton asked.


    "Er!"


    Qin Huaiyu lost his voice like a duck caught by the neck.


    Each of them is a family of dignitaries. Naturally, there are careful arrangements for their marriage, whether it is wives, concubines or wealth


    Innocence is one of the most important conditions. I''m afraid it''s impossible to be born in a brothel.


    "So, there''s really no other meaning for you to redeem Miss Gongsun." Wei Chi Baolin doubted.


    "Of course, this is a matter of mutual benefit. Over time, Gongsun will bring ten times and one hundred times returns to Mojia village." Merton simply explained the principle of endorsement to the three people.


    "Since Miss Gongsun works for Mojia village, I can watch Miss Gongsun''s sword dance without spending a lot of money?"


    Zu Mingjun said happily.


    Among all the people, Zu Mingjun''s wealth is the weakest. He didn''t go to the gold selling Grottoes such as jiaosifang once. For Gongsun Yue''s sword dance,


    He''s known a lot.


    "It''s not that you don''t spend money, but that everyone doesn''t spend money. Miss Gongsun will soon be the image spokesman to solve thousands of worries in Chang''an city


    The western regions grand event will be Gongsun''s first show, "said Merton.


    "Public performance?" at this moment, many students around the Imperial College were excited and could look up to Gongsun Yue''s sword dance


    After all, it is a minority, and most people have heard of it for a long time, and this public performance of Gongsun month will not let everyone get what they want.


    "But you should hurry up. After the grand western region event, Miss Gongsun will leave Chang''an City and go to the Tang Shidao show. You can''t come back without a year or a half." Merton said.


    "Ah! Go to the ten ways of the Tang Dynasty." the students were stunned.


    The ancients said: traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books is a great ideal in students'' career. However, it is difficult to integrate knowledge and practice. Walking in the Tang Dynasty is a dream that everyone can meet and can''t ask. However, this dream will be realized by a woman.


    People believe that Merton has no other meaning to redeem Gongsun Yue. If Merton really wants to hide her beauty in a golden house, how can Gongsun Yue show up again.


    "Hum, it''s really not as good as animals!" Qin Huaiyu said coldly.


    All the students couldn''t help laughing. This stem was spread by Merton in the Imperial College. Now Merton is eating his own fruit.


    Merton reluctantly touched his nose. It was really careless to make friends.


    He distributed more than a dozen tickets for Gongsun Yue''s performance at the western region event, which sent the people away. Merton turned to Qin Huaiyu and said, "whether to go to the western region event or not, do you want to join me?"


    The three shook their heads for a while and stepped back like avoiding snakes and scorpions.


    "I''d better not. I''m always unlucky to be with you. This time, young master, I''m going to have a good game." Chumo shook his head.


    With their status as a small principality, the grand gathering in the western regions is naturally unimpeded. Before, because they were short of money, they now rely on the financial resources of the food city. Merton rarely pays a generous dividend, so they have to be extravagant once.


    "Don''t regret it then," Murton snorted coldly, warning of lack of confidence.


    Recently, he has always been watched by Li Shimin, and this time there has been a great storm for Gongsun Yue''s redemption. If it is planted in Li Shimin''s hands, it will not be good.


    Under the attention of thousands of people, the grand event in the western regions is in full swing.


    In order to facilitate citizens to go to the West City, Chang''an County Government has directly opened four bus routes around the west city.


    At the same time, rich businessmen and dignitaries from all over the country gathered. From the Silk Road, they were all top-grade fur, spices, jewelry and jade, which were the favorites of rich businessmen and dignitaries.


    At the same time, Hu merchants in Xi''an City, inspired by the frenzy caused by Merton and Gongsun Yue, directly spent a lot of money to invite flower leaders from 12 brothels in Chang''an city to perform in public.


    Once the news came out, it immediately caused a huge wave in Chang''an city. You should know where these Huakui ordinary people can meet, and now they even appear in public.


    Ten days later, all the people in Chang''an City gathered in the West City, and a wealth feast is coming.

 Chapter 261

    A sea of people, one after another.


    The western region event has become a carnival for the people of Chang''an city. It is not only the extreme enthusiasm of western region businessmen, but also the mobilization of the whole western market. So many people pour into the western market, which is a rare business opportunity in a day.


    Merton walked on the busy streets of the west city and felt the fanatical commercial atmosphere. Merton had the feeling of coming to future generations.


    Chang''an city is worthy of being an international metropolis. There are nearly 10000 Hu people living in the west city. At the moment, on the streets of the West City, many Hu businessmen with red hair and blue eyes come and go in a hurry, and the citizens of Chang''an City look for eyes to see if it''s strange.


    On both sides of the street, various folk acrobatics are staged one after another, which is a bit more lively than later temple fairs.


    "Little brother, when I first came to the capital, I ran out of money. I had to come out to perform. Please join me."


    A gong sounded, a middle-aged man drank fiercely, and the knife light came everywhere. The surrounding people immediately cheered.


    "Swallow the sword!"


    "Eighteen consecutive back somersaults."


    "Fire in the mouth,


    Barefoot stepping on steel knife


    Walking on stilts, juggling, puppet shows, one after another, the common juggling in later films and television appeared one after another. Merton walked all the way and looked at these most primitive performances. There are not so many props in this era, many of which are real kung fu.


    The people of Chang''an city are also very supportive. When they meet those they like, they also give generously.


    "Let''s go, the performance of the major flower leaders in Chang''an city is about to begin." a group of citizens rushed forward.


    "Then hurry. I want to see Gongsun''s sword dance." many people nearby can''t wait to run forward when they hear the speech.


    Gongsunyue is the most famous Huakui in Chang''an city. Many people are attracted by gongsunyue. This public performance of gongsunyue is naturally attracting the attention of thousands of people. In addition, other twelve Huakui who are famous far and wide can not be missed.


    For a moment,


    People rushed to the West City Center. At that time, it was the opening performance of the western region grand event. Merton, who was still walking leisurely in the streets, was particularly independent.


    "Brother Mo, don''t you want to see it? It''s the most famous Huakui in Chang''an city." Li Chengqian''s voice suddenly came from behind him.


    "It''s brother Gao Ming!" Merton turned back quickly.


    "Of course, Lord Mo doesn''t need to see it. The most famous flower leaders in Chang''an City have been redeemed by him. Naturally, whenever you want to see it, you can see it." beside Li Chengqian, Li Lizhi, dressed in men''s clothes, said sour.


    "The princess misunderstood." Merton had to explain again.


    Li Lizhi immediately covered her face with Hao Ran and said embarrassed, "Lord Mo is kind-hearted. I misunderstood."


    Merton waved his hand and said, "the princess is polite. Mo also has his own selfishness. He can use this event to remind the world to pay attention to these miserable women."


    Li Lizhi suddenly said, "Lord Mo''s endorsement is to find another way for brothel women.


    Merton nodded: "in fact, I have some questions in my heart since I last went to the church workshop, which has been stuck in my throat.


    Confucianism advocates that the father is the son''s class and the wife is the husband''s class, but it happens that the father buys the daughter and the husband sells the wife, so that a group of women fall into a sea of suffering. Is this reasonable.


    Slavery has been abolished for thousands of years, and the deed of sale comparable to slavery is still going on in the Tang Dynasty. Is this legal? "


    Merton''s words immediately made everyone silent. Confucianism is the most orthodox thought, and the three cardinal principles and five constant principles are the core. However, the existence of brothels is the biggest fatal defect of Confucian theory. The ethical basis for the event of father selling daughter and husband selling wife comes from the three cardinal principles and five constant principles.


    The rise of Legalists began with the abolition of slavery, and the deed of sale of brothels is like a replica of slavery.


    Li Lizhi''s eyes turned red and said sadly, "these women are really miserable people."


    Li Chengqian, who had been educated by Confucianism, couldn''t help twitching his face. For a long time, he said helplessly: "since Guan Xiang founded nvlu, this is not unique to the Tang Dynasty. Besides, it has existed for thousands of years, only its rationality."


    Merton shook his head and said, "Chang''an city is the best place in the Tang Dynasty. However, a large number of women are deeply in trouble. If they are forced by life and do it voluntarily, the Mohist school has nothing to say. I''m afraid most of them are sold here or forced into prostitution. Although the Mohist move can only benefit a few people, at least the Mohist school will do its part."


    "Brother Mo''s great righteousness is admired by my younger brother." Li Chengqian said with a heavy face. Merton''s words today deeply touched him and made him suddenly wake up. Confucianism, maybe Confucianism is not as good as it preaches.


    Li Lizhi''s eyes flickered. As a woman, she was more touched.


    For a moment, they had no idea of going to watch the sword dance, so they wandered aimlessly in the west market.


    Unknowingly, the performance was over, and many people went back to the street happily. Each of them had more meaning and talked about it one after another.


    "This is really a worthwhile trip. The Huakui of Chang''an City really deserves his reputation."


    "What are the twelve flower leaders? In my opinion, Gongsun''s sword dance is unique in Chang''an city. It''s much better than other flower leaders."


    "Even I like Gongsun''s sword dance best."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People in the western city talked about it one after another. However, Gongsun Yue''s sword dance was the most popular. As for the performances of other Huakui, they only thought it was good-looking, but they didn''t have the slightest impression.


    "Strange to say, I was lucky to have seen Gongsun''s sword dance. Although I thought it was beautiful before, it was far from the shock today." a rich businessman passed in front of Merton and said to his companion.


    His companions nodded and felt the same.


    Merton knew clearly in his heart that it was the Gongsun girl who regained her freedom and improved her understanding of sword dance that made today''s shocking performance.


    In a brocade Pavilion in the center of West City.


    Twelve beautiful women surrounded Gongsun Yue with envy on her face.


    "Congratulations, sister. I''ve been out of the sea of suffering since then." the woman in yellow, led by her, wept.


    Among the many flower leaders, although they haven''t seen each other, they have also heard of each other for a long time. After the news that Gongsun Yue was redeemed by Mojia village came, it was like a thunder and spread among the major brothels in Chang''an city.


    Congliang is the greatest wish of a brothel woman in her life. However, such lucky people are very few. Most of them are abandoned by the brothel after aging and finally grow old alone.


    "Thank you, sisters. I didn''t expect it to be so sudden." Gongsun Yue sighed.


    As brothel women, first, they yearn for Congliang and second, they worry about the source of life after Congliang. After all, they only entertain people with color and have no life skills at all. Even many women return to brothels again after Congliang because of life.


    However, after Gongsun Yue was redeemed, there were no such worries. She was directly invited by the Mohist school as the image spokesman to solve thousands of worries.


    You should know that jieqianchou is the most precious wine in Chang''an city. It is marketed throughout the Tang Dynasty. It can be imagined that as its spokesman, it must be very prominent and have no worries about livelihood at all.


    Many women have turned the topic to the endorsement. If Gongsun Yue''s move can succeed in one fell swoop, it will be the greatest gospel for the brothel women in Chang''an city.


    "Rest assured, for the sake of your sisters'' future, Gongsun Yue will definitely complete the endorsement successfully." Gongsun Yue said firmly.


    Once the endorsement of commodities is successful, one can repay the great kindness of Mojia village, and the other can find a new way of life for brothel women.

 Chapter 262

    Throughout the dynasties, Kyoto has been the center of the world economy. There are countless dignitaries and dignitaries. The demand for luxury jewelry is endless.


    Especially the rare treasures from the western regions and even more distant countries are very popular.


    After the opening, the whole western market has become a feast of wealth. Amber, gemstones, cat''s eye stones and glass from the western regions are extremely expensive treasures. However, in the eyes of those rich families, they don''t look at the price at all and directly sweep the goods.


    Merton can''t help but marvel at how rich the rich in Chang''an city are, and they are more willing to spend money.


    Princess Changle was so excited that she was walking among Hushang shops in the west city and saw that everything was novel.


    "This Persian carpet is really beautiful. My mother will like it."


    Princess Changle touched the soft Persian carpet in her hand and said happily.


    She now owns an ice cream shop. One summer, it was a golden day, but she was a famous little rich woman in the palace.


    "Miss, you have a good eye. This is made of pure Persian Lamb hair. It took hundreds of skilled craftsmen in Persia to compile it for a year and transport it to Chang''an city." a Hu shopkeeper said to Princess Changle in fluent Guanzhong Dialect.


    "Thousands of miles away?" Li Chengqian couldn''t help but smack his tongue.


    Merton nodded and said, "it will take at least a year to come to Datang from Persia. If the camel team walks 50 miles a day, excluding the rest time on the road, it will be tens of thousands of miles. If the Daqin empire is more distant, it will be more distant."


    According to later research, the whole silk road is 7000 kilometers, that is, 14000 miles.


    "These people are really crazy. They came so far to do business," Li Chengqian said with emotion.


    "The long journey is nothing. What is more difficult is the dangerous environment, vast desert, ferocious sand thieves and extortion of countries along the way. This is a history of blood and tears." Merton nodded.


    "It''s crazy!" Li Chengqian smacked his tongue.


    "No, I think these are the most courageous people," Merton shook his head.


    People who often take the Silk Road are probably the most adventurous people in this era, and even a group of people who change the world. China''s four great inventions were spread to the west through the Silk Road, thus changing the process of the world.


    Soon, Princess Changle chose a Persian carpet, stretched out her hand, and a maid readily picked up the golden leaf to pay the bill.


    Then, Princess Changle opened the women''s mode and began to stroll around the west market with great interest. When she saw which one she did not hesitate to take, the expensive Su Hexiang, she directly bought a full box of it.


    Even Li Chengqian couldn''t help but feel happy and started several things. However, his financial resources are limited and can''t compare with the great work of Princess Changle.


    "Brother Mo is a famous new rich man in Chang''an city. Don''t buy some of these things." Li Chengqian asked when he saw that Merton was still empty handed all the way.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the Mohists advocate frugality. Some things are enough. The Mohists don''t need these precious things."


    Although these things are more expensive, Merton, who has this later experience, can naturally despise these things, let alone spend such a big price.


    "Why did brother Mo agree to participate in this western region event?" Princess Changle looked back with a jewel in her arms.


    If Merton had not nodded his head and agreed to participate in the western region event, the whole western region event would not have been carried out on such a large scale.


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "naturally, these Hu merchants have what the Mohists need in their hands."


    "Very precious?" asked Princess Changle.


    Merton nodded, "it''s priceless."


    Princess Changle and Li Chengqian looked at Merton in shock, but the solemn look on Merton''s face didn''t seem to be joking.


    "That palace is waiting to be an eye opener." Princess Changle glanced at Merton charmingly. She trusted Merton very much and didn''t think Merton would deceive herself at all.


    There are a lot of people who pay attention to Mohism in the whole western region event, but since the beginning of the event, Mohist village has done nothing except let Gongsun Yue perform on the stage.


    Xie Qianchou sold a lot, but Zheng Qian and his wife were so happy that they couldn''t find the north. However, the Mohist school didn''t buy any goods at the western region event.


    There are many people staring at the Mohist School in the whole western region event. Many speculate that the reason why Mohist school participated in this event must be that they found great business opportunities, but somehow there were no business opportunities.


    The western region event lasted five days, four days, but the Mohist school did not make any action. Until the evening of the fourth day, a strong news came that Mojia village bought all the diamonds of the western region event and will show the charm of diamonds tomorrow.


    "Diamond?"


    For a moment, everyone didn''t understand the intention of Mojia village.


    "Is the Mo family stupid? The diamond is extremely hard and difficult to carve. It is of no use at all." many hostages doubted.


    In addition to its hardness, diamond is difficult to use. The price in the west of Chang''an city is not high at all. It is generally collected as a rare thing. Rao is so that few people can buy it.


    "How can it be useless? If it is not used, the Mohists will buy it, but the Mohists!" more people believe that the diamond must be valuable, otherwise the Mohists would make such a big fuss.


    There are different opinions and expectations. Mojiazi is about to create another miracle.


    Chang''an city was restless all night. On the fifth day, the whole Chang''an city was surging and gathered in the west city.


    In the center of the west city. It is still a sea of people.


    On the stage, the sword shines everywhere, and Gongsun moon dances with unusual fitness.


    After a dance, Gongsun Yuexiang was sweating.


    Although the crowd cheered, their thoughts had already been on Gongsun Yue.


    "Why hasn''t Morton come out yet?" Qin Huaiyu frowned and asked in an excellent position under the stage.


    "It should be fast! By the way, what medicine did you sell in the gourd this time?" Chumo looked up and said to the left and right.


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin shook their heads and said, "Merton doesn''t say anything at all."


    The unknown is the most curious. Their hearts are like a kitten, scratching constantly.


    There are many people who feel the same way. Everyone is looking forward to Merton creating a wealth legend again.


    Under the attention of the public, a handsome young man in black walked slowly to the front desk. This man was Merton.


    "Mojiazi!"


    "Mojiazi!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an City under the stage shouted in unison. The atmosphere of the whole scene was extremely warm. Everyone was looking forward to Merton''s miracle again.

 Chapter 263

    Having presided over an ink exhibition, Merton calmly walked to the center of the stage.


    When he reached out and pressed, the whole audience was silent. Merton''s strong field control ability made some interested people take a breath.


    "Is this what Merton calls the star effect?"


    In a private room on the second floor in the center of the west market, Li Shimin asked with a dignified face. Behind him, a group of princes and daughters looked at Merton in the center of the stage.


    Li Shimin certainly won''t miss such a grand event in the western regions. In addition, Merton caused such a storm. On the last day, he took the opportunity to lead his children to see the excitement.


    Behind him, Li Chengqian stepped out and said, "tell your father, the star is taken from the meaning of the eternal bright east of Taibai Venus, which means that influential people can shine and give guidance."


    "So he used the influence of the brothel flower leader to guide the people to buy wine?" Li Shimin glared.


    With a wry smile, Li Chengqian nodded: "it is said that the effect is excellent. In the grand meeting in the western regions, relieving thousands of worries has simply become the most popular commodity among Hu merchants in the western regions, second only to silk."


    "Father, this is a hundred benefits without harm. It can not only sell things, but also give those hard-working women a way to live." Princess Changle defended Merton.


    Li Shimin suddenly felt a burst of unprofitable business. The brothel itself is a dirty and ugly place, and his daughter often talks about it, which makes Li Shimin feel embarrassed.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Li Shimin immediately gnashed his teeth and stared at Merton.


    On the stage, Merton, like a national idol, gave full play to the control of the whole audience and stretched out his hand. Wei Chi Baolin came up with a booth covered with red cloth.


    Merton created such a big storm, there must be good things. How could they miss such a lively scene? They had to help them shamelessly. Merton had no choice but to arrange for them.


    When Merton lifted his hand, he immediately revealed a tray, which showed an egg sized diamond. This is the biggest harvest Merton has found in the whole western market, that is, it will be able to leave a name on the diamond ranking in future generations.


    "It is said that diamond, known to the Mohists, is the hardest thing in the world today. It is a thousand times harder than stone and 150 times harder than the hardest corundum. Steel leaves no trace on him. It never wears." Merton held up the diamond in his hand and said.


    The stage design is based on the sound amplification technology of ink technology exhibition. Merton''s voice clearly spread throughout the venue.


    "Wow!"


    The crowd marveled and looked unbelievably at a small egg sized diamond in Merton''s hand. It would be so hard.


    Some rich businessmen nodded one after another. They also wanted to start diamond at that time. Unfortunately, this thing is too hard to polish at all.


    Even some rich people did not give up, hired many skilled craftsmen, exhausted all methods, but had no way to diamond, and finally had to give up.


    Merton turned back and put it on the booth. Yuchi Baolin, like an iron tower, picked up a huge hammer from under the booth. He raised the hammer high with both hands and shouted. The hammer with a roaring sound immediately hit the diamond.


    "When!"


    A loud noise spread all over the city.


    "What a hero!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Chi Baolin, who was so muscular that he couldn''t help but brighten his eyes.


    After the special weight-bearing training of Merton, Wei Chi Baolin''s figure is better than before, his strength is greatly increased, and his muscles are frightening.


    Under the heavy blow of Wei Chi Baolin, the specially designed booth suddenly deformed. Wei Chi Baolin was also numbed, and his whole arms lost consciousness.


    In a mess, Merton found the diamond again and held it high in the air,


    "Intact," Merton shouted, shaking his arms.


    "It''s so hard."


    "I''m afraid this is the hardest thing in the world!"


    Suddenly the whole audience was boiling. Such a big hammer and such a strong man still had no way to take this diamond.


    "It deserves to be the hardest thing in the world." Li Shimin was shocked and sighed. He didn''t think Wei Chi Baolin would cooperate with Merton to make a fake.


    The princes and daughters were also amazed.


    "No external force can do anything about it. It is extremely hard and can''t be carved. The world says that rotten wood can''t be carved, but it doesn''t know that things too hard can''t be carved."


    The audience burst into laughter.


    Rotten wood cannot be carved. It comes from the Analects of Confucius. Of course, everyone knows this allusion.


    Li Shimin immediately nodded, and so did his iron birch Trojan horse. How can he carve hard things with soft things.


    Suddenly, Li Shimin''s face moved. The Mohist school has not finished cutting such a hard iron birch. Doesn''t it mean that the diamond Mohist school also has a way.


    Sure enough, I heard Merton raise his voice: "however, everything can be cracked, and how can the Pearl be covered with dust? After difficulties and dangers, the Mohists finally found a way to cut diamond."


    Merton reached out and Chumo walked out with a solemn face.


    Uncovering the red cloth, Merton took out a thumb sized crystal clear polygonal diamond.


    Merton held it high, and now, above the stage, the mechanism rang, and a layer of black cloth rolled over, blocking the sun. The whole center of the stage suddenly became dark. Only a beam of sunlight shines through a round hole in the center,


    "Pinhole imaging?"


    They were surprised. The scene they met seemed to remind them of the performance of pinhole imaging in the previous Ink Exhibition.


    However, this time they guessed wrong. In full view of the public, Merton gently went to the round hole in the center and put the diamond in the sun.


    instant.


    The whole diamond burst into dazzling brilliance, shining the whole audience.


    "Wow!"


    People can''t help but marvel at it, especially women, who are obsessed with looking at the most brilliant light in the center of the stage.


    Chumo is so close that he is almost blinded. He once secretly checked the diamond backstage. He just thought it was crystal clear. There is nothing special about it, but he never thought it would be so beautiful in such a specific environment.


    In the box on the second floor, Li Shimin couldn''t help taking a breath. Rao was well-informed. He couldn''t help shaking his mind when he saw such peerless jewelry.


    The princes and daughters looked at the only light on the stage.


    The whole exhibition lasted only ten seconds. With a wave of Merton''s hand, all the dark scenes fell, the whole audience recovered the light, and the diamond converged the dazzling brilliance. However, everyone''s mind could not be calmed for a long time.


    "Mo waited for four days for the whole western region event, but in these four days, no one paid attention to the diamond." Merton looked around.


    A group of businessmen regretted beating their breasts and sighing, so the peerless Pearl was in front of their eyes, and their eyes were out of sight.


    However, there was no resentment in their hearts. Mozi didn''t do it completely. Instead, he waited four days in a row before he began to sweep the goods. It was not that they were not given a chance, but that they had no vision.


    "The polished diamond is named diamond by Mohist. It is beautiful, rare, pure and unbreakable. It is a symbol of love and loyalty and represents eternal love."


    Merton looked around with a meaningful smile and said slowly.


    "Diamonds last forever, and one will last forever."

 Chapter 264

    Good poem!


    Even if there is only half a sentence, Li Shimin can understand the classics of this poem.


    "This smelly boy! He never uses his talent on the right way." Li Shimin said gnashing his teeth.


    The last time Merton used poetry to sell salt, this time to sell gemstones, Merton was going to go to black on this road.


    "It''s just that it''s just the right time. It''s a small person''s ambition." wesan looked at Merton on the stage like a diamond in another box not far away. The more successful Merton was, the more unhappy he was.


    "Do you feel extremely regretful? Do you think if you give yourself another chance, maybe the chance to get rich overnight is yours?" Merton said slowly.


    Everyone was silent for a while and couldn''t help but feel the waves in their hearts. Yes, if they knew that diamonds could be polished into diamonds, would such an opportunity be their own.


    However, Merton suddenly showed a malicious smile and said with a smile: "I know that before that, someone must have started to polish diamonds, but I have a very unfortunate news to tell you that in today''s world, only Mohist can polish diamonds. The diamond in my hand was bought as early as four months and was not completed until three days ago. Using the most advanced polishing technology of Mohist, three skilled craftsmen in Mohist village spent four months.


    In other words, even if you know the grinding method of diamond, there is nothing you can do without the professional tools of Mojia village. "


    Suddenly, it was like a basin of cold water pouring down, and many people lamented that if they could not cut, the diamond in their hands would still be as worthless as a hard stone.


    Wesan''s face turned red. He had just questioned Merton, but he was directly beaten in the face by Merton.


    However, many people are happy. You know, many diamonds have been introduced to China, but the hard characteristics of diamonds have also attracted many people to collect.


    After this battle, even if they can''t polish the diamond, the value of the diamond in their hands must have soared. I didn''t expect that their unintentional actions would have such a huge return.


    Li Shimin''s face turned black. If you want to say gemstones, it''s estimated that there are not as many as those in the imperial palace. In the treasure house of the Imperial Palace, there are a lot of diamonds from other countries. In this way, the royal family also needs Merton.


    Hu merchants also looked bad. The value of diamond was their biggest loss. They originally thought that diamond would be firmly controlled in their own hands in the future. They didn''t know that they had to ask for Datang in the end.


    Merton looked around for a week and asked loudly, "many people are expecting Mohism to create a wealth miracle again. I don''t know if you can be satisfied this time."


    "Satisfied!"


    The people of Chang''an City roared. Mohism represented the majority of civilians. Mohism worked miracles again and again, and there was a sense of sharing weal and woe.


    "But..." Merton turned and looked at the crowd and said, "if I say there are ten times more valuable than these diamonds in the whole west city, and a hundred times more valuable things are still covered with pearls?"


    Everyone was in an uproar. How could it be? I''m afraid Merton didn''t say the price of diamonds on the spot, but it is estimated that it must be a sky high price. The Mohists must be rich this time.


    But who could have thought that there were still things more valuable than diamonds in Xishi that had not been found. It was a fluke to encounter one such thing, but it was encountered one after another by Mozi.


    At the moment, even Hu merchants are in an uproar. They can''t help looking around and talking about each other. They don''t understand which of their products can''t be so valuable.


    "I knew it!" Li Chengqian looked like this.


    "Why, the emperor brother knows what Merton is going to do?" Li Tai asked in a low voice, and the other princes immediately listened.


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "I don''t know why, but please look. Merton and Qin Huaiyu are close friends. However, at the moment, Chumo and Chi Baolin have all been on stage, and only Qin Huaiyu hasn''t played yet."


    Li Tai suddenly understood: "with Qin Huaiyu''s fussy character, how can we miss such an opportunity? There must be something more important backstage."


    The princes suddenly.


    "Come out!" Li Zhi said in a high voice with sharp eyes.


    The crowd stared and saw Qin Huaiyu struggling to push a booth and walk up to the stage.


    Three of the same booths, the first two have opened people''s eyes, and the third one immediately makes people look forward to it.


    Merton reached out and lifted the red cloth on the booth. In an instant, a dazzling golden light flashed. He saw a large gold ingot stacked on the whole station.


    "Hoo!"


    In an instant, the whole audience''s breathing suddenly became urgent. If the previous diamond people also knew its value, but it was far from the gold in front of them, it would be the most tempting.


    Gold,


    Gold ingot,


    Many people have never seen so much wealth in their life.


    Hu merchants also have golden eyes. They came all the way to seek money. What is more real than golden gold.


    "What does Merton want to do? Is he showing off his money?"


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly turned green and roared.


    The princes suddenly had different faces, heavy, envious and gloating.


    Princess Changle looked worried at Li Shimin and Merton on the stage. She secretly prayed that Merton could get through this level.


    When Wei Si settled down, he laughed happily and said, "ha ha, Mo Jiazi, you also make mistakes."


    Weisi is at ease and makes a sudden turn. If this matter is used properly, it will certainly ruin the Mexican family and leave it a bad legacy for thousands of years.


    Qin Huaiyu was also shocked. He didn''t expect that he pushed out these things. If it came out, it would be bad for Merton''s reputation. However, when he saw Merton''s calm face, he couldn''t help calming down. He chose to believe Merton.


    Merton, with clear eyes, slowly said to Hu Shang, "today I''m here to buy things like you."


    Wei Sian in the private room couldn''t help but curl his mouth and say, "even buying a fairy pill can''t save you."


    Tiewu immediately got up and said, "Lord Mo, please say that everything we have must be sold."


    "I want to buy a seed," Merton said word by word.


    "Seeds?"


    In an instant, everyone was confused and didn''t understand what seed could be worth so much gold.


    Tiewu, as the representative of Hu merchants, carefully asked, "I don''t know what the seed is?"


    "Any seed can be. It can be a medicinal seed, a grain seed, a tree seed, or a beautiful flower seed..." Merton said.


    The crowd immediately thought.


    "But it has only one premise, that is, this seed is useful and is something that Tang Dynasty did not have." Merton said slowly.

 Chapter 265

    Merton''s words, in the eyes of ordinary people, have no problem at all. It''s just confused. What seeds are useful when the fog goes in the cloud.


    However, in some people''s hearts, it is like a huge wave, and their mind is lost.


    "What? The MOH family wants to take the road of Bo Wang Hou." Wei Si''an suddenly started and said with a shocked face.


    Merton took out so much money in public that no matter what he bought, he would be criticized. Originally, he thought that Merton would be doomed this time. He had thought of all kinds of subsequent ideas of concocting mojiazi, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi would find another way, which was beyond everyone''s expectation.


    In another box, Li Shimin and a group of adult princes also stood up in shock and looked at Merton in the stands.


    "Bo Wang Hou!"


    All the princes immediately talked and looked at Merton in amazement.


    "Father emperor! Who is Bo Wang Hou!" Li Zhi asked curiously, but he thought about it again and couldn''t think of any Hou ye who could call Bo Wang Hou in the current Dynasty.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath: "the Marquis of Bo Wang was not the Marquis of this dynasty, but the Marquis of the Western Han Dynasty. Zhang Qian, the Marquis of Bo Wang, sent to the western regions to open up the silk road. Your favorite pomegranates and grapes are the seeds passed by the Marquis of Bo Wang from the western regions."


    Li Zhi suddenly said, "Bowang Hou personally went to the western regions to bring back the seeds, and Merton bought the seeds in the hands of businessmen from the western regions."


    "It''s just cheating and playing tricks?" Li Tai said.


    Compared with the great achievements of Bowang Hou, Merton''s move is naturally opportunistic. However, even if only one percent of Bowang Hou''s credit is due, it is also a great achievement.


    Seeing Merton''s easy achievement, Li Tai was very jealous.


    "No, I think Merton''s contribution is immeasurable." Li Chengqian shook his head and said.


    The princes immediately looked at Li Chengqian in surprise. They should know that although Merton did make a contribution to this move, after all, he didn''t move an inch and took advantage of it. The credit is no matter how big it can be.


    Li Tai said sarcastically, "brother Huang, did you lose your heart because you made friends with Mohist Zi?"


    Li Chengqian didn''t care about Li Tai''s ridicule. He said calmly, "father and brothers, you can think that the prince of Bowang brought seeds from the western regions, and these Hu merchants came from far away from the western regions, and there are even many in the far western countries. I''m afraid there will be countless things not found in the Tang Dynasty."


    Not to mention pomegranates and grapes, there are many plants in Datang. Everything with a beard came from the western regions and greatly affected the lives of the people in Datang.


    Even if these Hu merchants do not carry seeds at the moment, the effect of one seed may not be great next time. If a large number of crops such as grapes will bring earth shaking changes to the agriculture of Datang,


    In this way, the value of a brand-new economic seed that has never appeared in Datang is indeed much greater than that of diamonds.


    And for Datang, a beautiful diamond that can''t be eaten or used can''t be compared with a seed that can change Datang''s life.


    Li Shimin took a look at the debate between Li Chengqian and Li Tai, waved his hand and said, "how about the specific effect? It''s too early to draw a conclusion now. Let''s see."


    "Yes! Father!"


    Li Tai and Li Chengqian immediately responded, but their attention involuntarily focused on a group of Hu merchants.


    Many people in the audience suddenly realized that the Mo family didn''t exaggerate. There were indeed something more precious than diamonds in the west market, but they didn''t find it.


    A group of Hu merchants immediately regretted that these seeds were only very common in their hometown. Who knows that someone bought them with a lot of money in Datang. But where do they have these seeds at this time?


    For a moment, the whole scene suddenly became silent.


    "Lord Mo, we''ve come all the way here. We don''t have many things we can bring. Most of them are goods. Where did we think of bringing seeds?" said a tall Hu merchant in white with regret.


    Compared with heavy goods, light seeds can get golden gold. I''m afraid this is a commodity more valuable than any goods.


    "Hey!"


    All the people immediately regretted.


    "The clown, the merit of Bo Wang Hou is coming out step by step. It''s like taking a shortcut for the Mohist school." Li Tai couldn''t help humming coldly.


    Li Shimin is also a pity. If this method can be successful, it will certainly bring endless benefits to Datang.


    Wesan watched Merton make a fool of himself on the stage. He was happy and was about to make a sarcastic remark, but he closed his mouth with a cold hum when he thought of the magic of Merton before.


    "I don''t know if it''s OK for us to deliver the seeds at the moment next year, but it will take two years to come back." the white Hushang asked the most concerned questions for all Hushang.


    "Of course, I can afford to wait for a year or two. Mohism will only pay gold for seeds that have never appeared in Datang. Once they are preempted by others, they will lose their corresponding value," said Merton.


    A group of Hu merchants suddenly realized that seeds are different from other crops. Once they have seeds, they can breed countless seeds. Later, nature lost its value.


    Suddenly, a Persian businessman suddenly stood up and shouted, "seeds... I have."


    "Wow!"


    There was an uproar.


    No one thought that the twists and turns of the road, the Mexican family unexpectedly made a harvest!


    Li Tai''s face turned red immediately. It was a slap in the face on the spot. He couldn''t help but say bitterly, "this Hu merchant doesn''t want to be crazy about money! He wants to deceive people by taking any seed. Has the Mo family seen it and how to know it''s a real seed?"


    The princes turned around and thought that it was not impossible. There were not many people who took risks for gold.


    The Persian businessman quickly found a small bag from the shop and held it in front of Merton. Facing the half cooked Chinese, he said, "this is a dish in Persia. Villains love it most. They specially bring some seeds to Datang and try to sow and eat in winter."


    Merton''s heart moved. It can''t be that kind of dish!


    "When will it be sown?" Merton asked repeatedly.


    "Autumn!"


    "When to eat!"


    "In winter, heavy snow can grow."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd suddenly exclaimed that planting in spring and harvesting in autumn is the principle of heaven, and this thing can grow in winter. "This person must be a liar. The dishes are the most delicate. There will be no vegetables growing in winter in the world." Li Tai said firmly.


    All the princes were speechless and didn''t believe that there were vegetables growing in winter.


    However, Li Shimin took a deep breath. If this thing is true, it will be the blessing of the people of the Tang Dynasty. It will directly solve the problem of no green vegetables in the winter of the Tang Dynasty.


    However, just when almost everyone thought he was a liar, Merton carefully asked about the traits and customs of the seed one by one.


    Finally, it was determined that this dish was a necessary winter vegetable for countless families.


    Merton took a deep breath and said in a high voice, "this thing is called spinach. It was recorded when the ancestors of Mohism visited Persia. What this person said is consistent. This seed is true and worth ten gold."


    When ten gold ingots and a small packet of seeds were exchanged in full view of the public, the whole audience immediately became boiling.

 Chapter 266

    Copper coins are the most popular in the Tang Dynasty. Gold and silver ingots are mostly used for bulk goods transactions, or rich people hide in treasure houses and can''t see the sun all year round. Ordinary people can see gold ingots.


    However, a small bag of seeds can be worth ten golden gold ingots. What''s more outrageous is that both sides think they are making a lot of money, which has refreshed everyone''s three views.


    "Isn''t the Mohist family stupid!" a young man said angrily. In his opinion, how many things can ten gold ingots buy, while Merton uses it to buy a small bag of seeds? It''s a natural thing.


    When the young man finished, he suddenly found that many people around him looked at themselves with a fool''s eye.


    "Brother, if you could keep up with the idea of Mohist, you would already be rich. Think about it. Mohist failed that time." a middle-aged man sarcastically said.


    "That is, if you don''t say it far away, take the diamond just now. You still think the Mo family will do useless things."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When the people around Chang''an City spoke to me, the young people suddenly blushed.


    "No! It''s true?" exclaimed Wes as he settled down. He did not expect that the Mexican family would exchange ten gold ingots for a bag of seeds. You know, ten gold ingots are not a small number. He is not an adult. Although he is not short of money, his possessions are not worth ten gold ingots.


    However, the Mohist School pushed out the ten gold ingots lightly. The gap is too big.


    "No, it almost caught the Mojia Zi''s way. He must be buying horse bones with thousands of gold." Wei Si''an said.


    In fact, anyone with a clear eye can see that the method thought by Mohist Zi can be established in theory. Even if these Hu merchants have no seeds at present, they will bring seeds in a steady stream in the future.


    The Persian husbandman must have been lucky and just arrived at this node.


    Wei Si''an thought for a while, and more and more thought that his guess was correct. In order to reproduce the great achievements of Bowang Hou, what are the ten gold ingots? Mozi must think so.


    At the moment, many princes are also discussing whether Merton is a golden horse bone.


    "Mohist is definitely buying horse bones!" Li Tai said definitely.


    "Whether Merton is buying horse bones or not, his move must benefit Datang a lot." Li Chengqian said solemnly.


    If spinach seeds are fake, Merton''s move will certainly stimulate a large number of Hu merchants to transport all kinds of seeds. Even if one of the ten seeds is useful, it will be a great good thing for Datang.


    "If it''s true that the ten gold ingots can solve the shortage of vegetables in winter in the Tang Dynasty, it''s probably the most cost-effective business in the world.


    Although Li Tai was uncomfortable, he had to admit that Merton''s move was good for Datang and did nothing harm.


    "No, I think this seed must be true," Li Shimin said suddenly.


    "Why did your father say that?" Li Tai said in amazement.


    Li Shimin smiled, pointed to a group of Hu merchants and said, "look at the expressions of those Hu merchants."


    Li Taishun looked in the direction of Li Shimin''s fingers, and many Hu merchants looked very regretful. Obviously, such seeds must be common to them, but they were robbed by this person. Since spinach has appeared in Datang, it means that they have lost this good opportunity to make a fortune.


    "Moreover, Mohist sages have recorded this, and all of them are consistent. If they are not sure enough, Merton will not do so." Li Chengqian nodded.


    "I have a peach species, which is a treasure of peach trees in Kang. It is as big as goose eggs and its color is as gold."


    "I have..."


    With spinach at the beginning, there was a sudden enthusiasm at the scene. Then Merton harvested several seeds that were not available in the Tang Dynasty.


    If Merton could identify it, he paid a gold ingot on the spot.


    If it is an indistinguishable crop or a crop with a long growth period, at least wait until it takes root and sprouts, and double the payment after confirmation.


    Of course, there are one or two people fishing in troubled waters who have been seen through by Merton one by one. It can be imagined that cheating a marquis in Datang will make him remember the law of Datang for a lifetime.


    Soon, a group of Hu merchants could no longer take out seeds. After all, who could bring seeds thousands of miles away was lucky to find so many.


    Merton was a little sorry, but a spinach had made his trip worthwhile.


    "There is a kind of fruit in China, which grows on a tree and is as big as a fist. It is green when immature and red when mature. The pulp is very sweet. I don''t know how much this seed can be worth?" a Hu merchant suddenly asked.


    Merton wondered if it was an apple. According to records, the origin of apple is in Central Asia.


    Merton stretched out his hand, and a son of the Mohist school immediately took out a brush and paper. Merton brushed a few brushes, and suddenly an apple appeared on the paper.


    "But so?" Merton sent someone to send the picture to Hu Shang.


    Suddenly, Hu Shang was like a ghost and nodded again and again: "it''s this kind of fruit. Lord mohou is really a God and man. He hasn''t seen this fruit. He can draw it. It''s really a God and man!"


    Merton waved his hand and said, "the sages of Mohism have seen this fruit. They named it apple and never forget to draw it. I''ve just seen a portrait. If it''s this fruit, as long as it''s a seed, it''s worth ten gold."


    Merton knows the economic benefits of all kinds of apples in the future, and he won''t lose ten gold at all.


    "Gaochang has a white pile, which is snow-white and extremely soft. I don''t know how much it''s worth?" iron Wu suddenly asked in a loud voice among Hu merchants.


    "Tiewu, you are cruel!" a thin Gaochang Hu merchant suddenly stood up and said angrily. Baidiezi is his property. At this time, baidiezi is a luxury. Every year he relies on baidiezi to obtain a lot of benefits, but it is destroyed by his dead enemy tiewu.


    Baidiezi, cotton.


    Merton tightened his heart and said with a smile, "this thing is worth twenty gold."


    "Twenty gold."


    Suddenly everyone was amazed. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at it. The seeds of spinach and apple before were only worth ten kilograms. I didn''t expect that a small white fold was twice its value.


    "Gao Changguo is near Chi Chi. Why should Lord Mo spend such a lot of money? Iron Wu won''t need more than a month to send this kind to Lord mo." iron Wu said quickly.


    His words are not big talk. Now tiewu''s strength has soared and its forces are all over the grassland. It also has a great impact on the western regions. It''s not easy to get a few seeds from Gaochang country.


    "No, I have the seeds of baidiezi," said the emaciated Gaochang merchant.


    Instead of being mixed up by tiewu, he might as well take the twenty gold in his hand first, and he knows that it may not be a bad thing for the Mohist family to attach so much importance to the white stack and hang it up with the Mohist family.

 Chapter 267

    Merton took a small bag of hairy cotton seeds with trembling hands, which is probably his biggest harvest today. Even the seeds of spinach didn''t make him feel so ups and downs.


    Mojia village has come all the way from poverty. Of course, Merton knows that there are two main ways of dressing in the Tang Dynasty. Rich people wear silk and ordinary people wear linen.


    However, there are few clothes that can keep out the cold in winter. Poor people can only endure the cold winter in winter. With the seeds of cotton, the people of Datang will no longer be afraid of cold winter nights. This will be the greatest gospel of Datang.


    "This seed is true!"


    Cotton seeds are the best to identify. The cotton lint on them can''t be stripped clean at all. Merton, who had seen cotton in his previous life, recognized it at a glance.


    Morton stretched out his hand, and Qin Huaiyu took out twenty gold dollar treasures in doubt.


    "Is it really worth twenty gold?" Qin Huaiyu asked in a low voice.


    Merton smiled proudly and whispered, "more than twenty gold! The real value of this thing is comparable to that of silkworm."


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help taking a breath. Silkworm is the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, and its value can be said to be priceless.


    Even if Merton exaggerates, even if it has half its value, it is a great credit.


    Qin Huaiyu was used to Merton''s magic. Naturally, he was full of confidence in Merton. At present, he no longer resisted. He readily handed over 20 gold ingots to Gaochang Hushang.


    The emaciated Gaochang Hushang had no joy in his heart. After baidiezi''s seeds flowed out, it was estimated that gaochangguo would lose its unique advantage soon.


    However, he was helpless. Even if he didn''t take out the cotton seed at the moment, it would certainly appear in the hands of Mohist Zi in less than a month. Instead, he might as well take out some benefits himself. Twenty gold was enough to compare with all his gains in this trip.


    The experience of Gaochang merchants made many people think deeply. The move of Mojia Zi was a conspiracy. Even if he wanted to hide some precious things, even if he didn''t offer them, he couldn''t keep other people''s heart. You should know which country came to Datang is not his own family.


    Suddenly, a dark and short Hu merchant got up, gritted his teeth and said, "the villain comes from the far south country of roufo. In China, there is an improved rice seed that can harvest in two months from the date of sowing. Although there are rice in Datang, there is absolutely no such excellence. I don''t know how valuable it is."


    "Harvest in two months! How is this possible?"


    Suddenly, everyone present was in an uproar. Many people in Chang''an city are from the south. Naturally, they know that the production cycle of rice in this era is generally about five or six months, usually three crops in two years. Only some places on Lingnan road can reach two crops a year.


    "Liar!"


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help but snort coldly. Rice is a common thing in the Tang Dynasty. Its growth cycle is well known. He doesn''t believe that there are such good varieties in a remote and small country.


    Many Hu merchants couldn''t help but gloat. The seeds mentioned by other Hu merchants before were not found in the Tang Dynasty. It''s OK to exaggerate for those golden treasures.


    The person in front of us chose the common rice in the Tang Dynasty and wanted to defraud money. I''m afraid it''s too easy to tear it down.


    The merchant of Johor suddenly felt uneasy. Although he knew that what he said was true, he was not sure whether mojiazi believed it, but such a huge fortune was in front of him. Of course, he had to give it a go.


    Merton was immediately delighted. Could it be that what this person said was Zhancheng rice, an improved seed that triggered China''s agricultural revolution in history,


    Zhancheng rice was introduced into China in the Song Dynasty and soon widely planted in the south of the Yangtze River. Sufficient food made China''s population have the first big explosion and exceeded the 100 million population mark for the first time.


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "Johor! In the far south of the Tang Dynasty, the ancestors of the Mohist school have visited. It is hot all year round, like summer all year round, the trees are evergreen, never wither, the fruits and melons are constantly available, and the people don''t have to work to worry about hunger."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the people around him immediately burst into an uproar. They thought that the countries around the lobby were barbarian countries. Unexpectedly, it was as beautiful as heaven on earth in Merton''s mouth.


    "Johor is so rich in products?"


    The princes were stunned and said, how does it sound better than Datang.


    Li Tai snorted coldly. He was well-informed and naturally remembered the records of the southern countries, saying: "The countries in the south are indeed rich in products, but they are not as beautiful as Mohist Tzu said. There are poisonous snakes everywhere and miasma. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger. In that year, Emperor Qin Shihuang sent 500000 troops to conquer South Vietnam, and at least 100000 people died of the epidemic in the south. You can imagine how poor Johor in the south is."


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "that at least proves that what this person said is true. Rice likes heat, and it happens that Johor is like summer all year round. It is not impossible to have such a good seed.


    Li Shimin obviously breathed slowly for a long time and said, "it''s easy to tell whether it''s true. Johor is not far from the Tang Dynasty."


    If it is false, it will just waste an opportunity. If it is true, I am afraid it will be the great luck of Datang. Datang is based on agriculture, and food is the top priority. Moreover, rice is planted in the south of the Yangtze River. If it is planted with this improved variety, Datang will have no food worries for a hundred years.


    Merton then said, "the grain of Jiuyuan County in the northernmost part of the Tang Dynasty is only one season a year, while that of the north and south of the Yangtze River is two years and three seasons, while that of Lingnan road is more than two seasons a year. The country of Johor is thousands of miles south of Lingnan road. It is hot and rainy all year round. It is not impossible to have rice varieties in three seasons a year or even four seasons."


    After Merton''s analysis, the audience immediately knew and nodded one after another.


    "I believe you''re telling the truth! As long as you ship it to Datang, even a small bag is worth 50 gold." Merton shouted.


    "Fifty gold!"


    Johor businessmen suddenly breathed. This is a great wealth. Just a small bag of seeds, which is the most common in Johor, can be exchanged. I''m afraid it''s the most cost-effective business in the world.


    Naturally, fifty gold will not be given to Johor businessmen at the moment. It will not be long until the real improved seeds arrive in Datang and the trial planting is successful.


    At the moment, the Johor businessman was overjoyed and wanted to fly back to the Johor country to get this kind of food immediately.


    Fifty gold is indeed a great wealth for ordinary people, but the people of insight present know that if this is true, fifty gold can solve the food crisis for Datang, which is the most cost-effective business in the world.


    "Mohism is a good means."


    Many people sighed for a while. Even if one of the ten seeds bought by mojiazi was useful, it was a great credit. Compared with the narrow life of Bowang Hou, mojiazi could do it with only some money. It was as easy as counting money at home.


    The people could not help but sigh that the actions of the Mohist family were indeed unrestrained. There were not a few people in the Tang Dynasty who were richer than the Mohist family, but they only focused on the shining gemstones, but they didn''t know that there were seeds in the world that were thousands of times more precious than the hard gemstones.


    Even those who oppose Mohism have to admit that Merton''s move is indeed a matter of merit in the present and benefit in the future.


    However, just as everyone looked at Merton with envious eyes, they heard Merton''s voice ring again.


    "Although these seeds are good, they are what farmers need, not what Mohists want. What Mohists want is more precious than these seeds."


    Merton reached out and Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin, who had just stepped down, appeared again, carrying a box full of gold ingots to the front desk.


    Suddenly, everything was silent.

 Chapter 268

    "More precious than seeds?"


    As Merton said just now, the people of Chang''an City really heard the effects of all kinds of seeds. As long as they are true, even any one is enough to benefit Datang a lot, and it is not impossible even to be awarded by the emperor.


    People really can''t think of anything that can compare with these seeds that are more precious than gold.


    For a moment, everyone turned their attention to a group of Hu merchants, and the people of Chang''an City were bored. Even those Hu merchants inlaid with gold are not worth so much money!


    Hu merchants were also confused. They really couldn''t think of anything so precious on themselves.


    "Clever! Do you want to know what else Merton wants to do?" Li Shimin''s heart is like tens of thousands of Cat Claws scratching his heart. His heart itches hard. He really can''t think of what Merton wants to do!


    "When I returned to my father, my ministers didn''t know. My ministers only knew that Merton once said that there were things needed by the Mohists at the western region event." Merton once mentioned it casually a few days ago, but Li Chengqian didn''t ask.


    "What Mohists need? Are diamonds and seeds not enough to satisfy Mohists?" Li Tai said sour.


    He saw that no matter which one was precious, but the Mexican family said it was not what he needed, which made everyone ashamed.


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "diamond is a luxury. Mohist advocates frugality. This thing is inconsistent with Mohist ideas. Seeds are indeed farm things and are not pursued by Mohist."


    Li Shimin could not help nodding. Li Chengqian''s analysis did have some truth. In this way, the Mexican family must have made great efforts to create such a sensation.


    Li Chengqian thought for a while and said with some difficulty, "according to his son''s minister, Merton may just ''throw a brick to attract jade'' when he takes out the diamonds and seeds."


    Li Shimin and the princes immediately felt it was ridiculous.


    "Throw a brick and attract jade.".


    The brick thrown by Mozi is more precious than any jade in the world. What does he want to lead out by throwing out the most expensive brick in the world?


    Merton did not play riddles for everyone, but said directly, "what the Mohists want is knowledge."


    "Knowledge?"


    Suddenly, many people moved in their hearts, as if they vaguely grasped Merton''s intention.


    A Hu merchant shook his head and said, "I''m so disappointed. We''re just a businessman. Where do we have any knowledge?"


    Other Hu merchants shook their heads one after another, looking regretful.


    "The knowledge here is not your knowledge. Mohist sages once traveled to your country and saw brilliant civilization and countless classic books. However, they can only bring back a few words and some unique knowledge. However, Rao has benefited Mohist a lot, so what Mohist wants is the place where Mohist sages once arrived Fang is the knowledge of some sages in your country, "Merton explained.


    All Hu merchants suddenly.


    The people of Chang''an city also understood the meaning expressed by Mohists. Ordinary people suddenly felt a little dull. Where are those books better than shining diamonds.


    But in the ears of some readers, they are like thunder and tremble all over.


    "Mozi has great ambition. The world says that Mozi is crazy to try to cultivate a hundred schools at the same time. Who would have thought that Mozi was planning to cultivate both at home and abroad."


    Under the stand, a Confucian student muttered.


    In the private room upstairs, Wes settled down with a dejected look. Chen Sheng once said: the swallow finch knows the ambition of the swan. At the moment, even without comparison, Wes ANN is already ashamed. In contrast, Merton is the Swan above, and I''m afraid he can''t even compare with the swallow finch.


    "Both Chinese and foreign!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up suddenly, and his eyes looked at Merton with an inexplicable meaning.


    "Learning some knowledge of barbarian land, isn''t that sacrificing the basics and seeking the end?" Li Tai shook his head and said that the knowledge of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years is broad and profound, which can''t be used to learn the knowledge of barbarian land.


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "the third brother doesn''t know. Mohism has been silent for thousands of years. It can rise so rapidly. In addition to a lot of ink skills, foreign knowledge is also indispensable. Before, the numbers we learned came from Tianzhu and other places. It can be seen that foreign scholars must also have their own uniqueness."


    Sure enough, I heard Merton say, "the sages of Mohism once visited Tianzhu and other places, and brought Tianzhu numbers from there. Now they are widely spread in the Tang Dynasty."


    Businessmen from Tianzhu changed from joy to sorrow. Tianzhu figures have been introduced into the Tang Dynasty, and the Mohist school will no longer need them.


    "But don''t be sad for Tianzhu friends. In order to repay the achievements of Tianzhu digital, after the western region grand meeting, the Mohist family will give each friend from Tianzhu a bottle to solve thousands of worries." Merton turned and shouted to a group of Hu merchants with headscarves.


    These Tianzhu businessmen immediately smiled and solved thousands of worries. In Datang, there was always a bottle of money, one bottle for each person. It was an unexpected wealth.


    A group of Hu merchants became dignified. The knowledge that had been introduced into the Tang Dynasty was so expensive that the precious books in their own country were more valuable.


    "The Mohist sages also visited the land of Persia, where they had the honor to read the classic Hammurabi code of foreign Legalists and heard of the beauty of the hanging garden spreading everywhere."


    A group of Persian businessmen immediately held their heads high, which was the greatest pride of Persia.


    "I have also visited the land of Egypt, saw the towering pyramids and Sphinx, and was saved once by a highly skilled doctor there."


    One or two Egyptian businessmen quickly stood up to pay tribute.


    "Mohist sages once traveled to the Far West, where they were lucky to read the works of the sages named Archimedes, saying their achievements were comparable to Mozi."


    A 50 year old Hu merchant of the great Qin Dynasty stood up to pay tribute to the Mozi family.


    "Comparable to Mozi."


    All the scholars present were in an uproar. You know, with Merton''s vigorous publicity, Mozi is now famous in the Tang Dynasty, and the Mozi family frankly said that there are people comparable to Mozi in the Far West.


    "Archimedes is indeed the sage of the Qin Dynasty, but I don''t have any books, but I have a Book of a man as famous as Archimedes, whose name is Socrates." Hu Shang of the Qin Dynasty shouted.


    He is also a poor aristocrat. In order to revitalize his family, he had to embark on the Silk Road with the intention of revitalizing his family. However, the silk road is a long way. Along the way, he relies on this book to pass the loneliness of his journey.


    Merton nodded and said, "the sage of Socrates, the sage of Mohism, once mentioned that this man is indeed as famous as Archimedes."


    All the people were in an uproar. The Mohists claimed that Archimedes'' achievements were comparable to Mozi, and Socrates, who was as famous as Mozi, was also comparable to other schools of thought.


    In the Tang Dynasty, the various schools of thought represented the master of knowledge. Each of them reached the peak of their respective fields. However, there were two figures comparable to the various schools of thought one after another in the barbarian land of the West. Wouldn''t everyone be surprised.


    Hu Shang of the Qin Dynasty quickly sent for a large and thick sheepskin roll, sent it to Merton''s hand and said, "I don''t know the value of this book?"


    Merton looked at the worn and worn book. It was obvious that the book had been turned over countless times. He couldn''t help showing a trace of excitement and said, "if this book is true, it is priceless.


    "Priceless treasure?" they were puzzled.


    Merton nodded slowly. In this world, everything has its value, only knowledge is priceless.

 Chapter 269

    "Knowledge is priceless!"


    Suddenly, the readers present were filled with emotion.


    Sometimes, the knowledge we have at hand is probably the most precious wealth in the world.


    We can set a clear price for any item and buy or sell it at will.


    But knowledge alone is not enough. For useless people, these readily available knowledge seems worthless, but for useful people, knowledge is so precious that it can''t be changed.


    Mohism is one of the hundred schools of thought. Naturally, it knows the value of knowledge.


    "Mohist ambition is so great," Li Chengqian sighed.


    "It''s just a show." Li Tai couldn''t help turning his head against his airway.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "it depends on whether Merton is willing to pay the price."


    At the moment, Hu Shang of the Qin Dynasty said proudly, "Lord Mo is indeed well-informed. Socrates is above Archimedes in the Qin Dynasty. It is not too much to call his works priceless."


    "Especially above Archimedes."


    There was an uproar. Before, Mozi said that Archimedes was comparable to Mozi, and Socrates was still above it. Wouldn''t it be comparable to Confucius and Lao Tzu.


    "It''s arrogant."


    Suddenly, many people thought.


    However, Merton nodded and said, "Socrates, the Mohist sages once mentioned that it is not too much to call their works priceless."


    Suddenly, everyone was stunned, and the Mo family nodded and admitted.


    As soon as Hu Shang of the Qin Dynasty was happy, he was afraid that the Mohists had never heard of Socrates and did not know the knowledge of Socrates. He said happily: "since the Marquis also thinks that this book is priceless, it is an insult to exchange gold for it."


    Merton nodded, "what do you mean?"


    Qin Hushang gritted his teeth and said, "villain wants to exchange this for your priceless treasure."


    Merton said without hesitation, "please."


    "I want to exchange this book for the diamond that Lord Mo just bought."


    As soon as the voice of Hu Shang in Daqin fell, the whole audience was boiling.


    Merton showed the diamond just now. Its beauty has conquered countless people, and it is the only diamond at this time, and its value is immeasurable. Will the MOH family agree to exchange this treasure for a book?


    For a moment, everyone''s eyes were all focused on Merton.


    "Yes!"


    Merton said without hesitation that it would be the fairest deal to exchange priceless treasure for priceless treasure!


    When the diamond was put into the hands of Hu Shang of Daqin, he suddenly flushed and breathed quickly.


    "Lord Hou is really a man of great wisdom. In return, I will certainly translate all this book into the words of the Tang Dynasty and exchange this diamond at that time." Hu Shang of the Qin Dynasty was obsessed with looking at the gem in his hand, gritted his teeth and put it back into Merton''s hand again. At the moment, it will only bring disaster in his hand. Compared with the reputation of the Mohist School in Chang''an City, he still deserves this trust.


    "That''s nature. What I buy is knowledge, not a pile of words I can''t understand." Merton nodded. Although diamonds are precious, they are not very attractive to Mohists who have mastered the process of grinding diamonds. After understanding this, Hu merchants of the Qin Dynasty were relieved to hand over the diamonds to Merton for safekeeping.


    This is probably the most far-reaching transaction in the history of the Tang Dynasty.


    So far, the grand meeting in the western regions is over. All the people are still alive. Today, they have witnessed the legend of Mozi once again.


    With the departure of the people in Chang''an City, what happened today spread all over Chang''an city.


    For a moment, the whole city was a sensation.


    "Can diamond be polished into an unparalleled diamond in the world?"


    All of a sudden, everyone was amazed one by one. No one thought that the diamond that had been ignored was so precious.


    "You didn''t see me. I was at the scene at that time. When the darkness enveloped the whole audience, only the light of diamonds was dazzling. People will never forget that beautiful scenery for a lifetime." a young man in black looked obsessed and proudly showed off like his friends around him.


    Friends around suddenly regretted that they had missed such an amazing moment.


    "How much is such a beautiful diamond worth?" the people around him said excitedly.


    "How much? The young man in black snorted coldly and said proudly," that''s priceless. "


    Suddenly, there was a cry around.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Pa!"


    The tea cup in Su Lingnong''s hand fell to the ground, but he didn''t notice it at all, as if he were fixed.


    "My Lord!" a small official who came to report shouted carefully.


    "What a genius idea!"


    Su Lingnong was just like waking up from a dream. He jumped up with excitement and kept pacing. The past of Bowang Hou in those years has been passed down to now. Grapes and walnuts brought from the western regions are common delicacies in the mouth of the people.


    In the Far West, there must be many seeds like grapes and walnuts. Only having seeds and cultivating them can be a great benefit to Datang.


    "Go! Go to the west market." Su Lingnong rushed out at once regardless of anything.


    "My Lord, the grand meeting of the western regions is over. I''m afraid the Mo family has gone back." the little official quickly stopped and advised.


    Su Lingnong suddenly said, "then go to Mo mansion."


    "My Lord, it''s hard to tell whether it''s true or not. Why don''t you wait until the Mohist school grows it, and it''s not too late for me to go again." the petty official said.


    Su Lingnong suddenly stopped, turned back and said coldly, "at that time, I can only take the blame and resign from my position as a senior farmer. Even if it''s only one in ten thousand, I must try it myself to rest assured.


    The petty official immediately looked uneasy and said, "it took a lot of money to buy the seeds of the Mohist school. Once it succeeds, it must be a great credit. The Mohist school will not let it out."


    In his opinion, Su Lingnong''s trip must have been in vain. If it was false, they would have spent a lot of effort. If it was true, how could the Mohist school give up such great credit.


    Su Lingnong shook his head and said, "didn''t Mozi once say that this is what the farmers need. Now who else dares to call himself a farmer except me? Besides, even if it''s really Mozi who doesn''t want to share the credit, as long as it''s true at this time, I''m willing to be an old farmer in Mozi."


    Su Lingnong hurriedly boarded the carriage and rushed to the Mo mansion.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Farmers will also rise."


    In the Imperial College, Kong Yingda sighed when he heard that doctor Ma Jiayun of the Imperial College talked about the scene that Merton spent a lot of money to buy seeds from Hu merchants.


    Such a big movement in the MOH family naturally alerted the Imperial College. Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, was the one who went to Xishi.


    "Offering wine to adults, I also think that Mohist''s move can succeed?" said Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy.


    "We are sure to succeed. Even if all the seeds fail this time, there will be a steady stream of foreign seeds introduced into China. There are so many seeds, and the revival of farmers is just around the corner," Kong Yingda affirmed.


    Before that, Confucianism was only the dominant school. However, only a year later, Mohism, medicine and mathematics have made remarkable achievements, and now the peasant family is also going to rise,.


    Is the era comparable to all schools of thought coming again.

 Chapter 270

    "Farmers are really lucky!"


    Liu Yinian also sighed repeatedly. It seems that no matter which of the hundreds of the schools of the thought participates in Mohism, there will be a momentum of the revival, and even extinct farmhouses will soon revive.


    "The Mohist school is going to build a farm house!" Kong Yingda sighed. The news of the Mohist school building a hundred houses is still in his ears. Merton''s move has completely confirmed that the Mohist school really wants to go this way.


    "It''s wrong to offer wine, sir. The Mo family doesn''t want to cultivate a hundred schools at the same time." Ma Jiayun, doctor of Imperial College, shook his head.


    "Why did brother Ma say that?" Kong Yingda wondered. Liu Yinian was also confused.


    "Because what the Mohists want is to cultivate both at home and abroad," said Ma Jiayun.


    "Both Chinese and foreign?"


    Kong Yingda and Liu Yinian suddenly rose.


    "Brother Ma, what does it mean to practice both at home and abroad?" Kong Yingda asked puzzled.


    Ma Jiayun looked heavy and said, "Mohist''s ambition is much greater than we thought. He not only wants to study a hundred schools, but also spends a lot of money to buy foreign books and study the knowledge of the western country."


    When mojiazi said that knowledge was priceless, Ma Jiayun could be said to be the most sympathetic person in the presence, and he could deeply understand mojiazi''s ambition.


    "Therefore, the Mohists wanted to follow the path of their predecessors, but the Mohists did the opposite. They used heavy money to attract foreign businessmen to bring the knowledge of the far western country." Kong Yingda suddenly said.


    Ma Jiayun nodded solemnly. Although the Mohist family spent so much money, once the layout is successful, its harvest must be endless returns.


    Liu Yinian burst into laughter and said, "the knowledge of the Far West? Those barbarian places eat their hair and drink their blood. Whether there are words is not certain, but they talk about knowledge?"


    "We don''t know if there is, but according to Mohist Zi, Mohist sages once traveled all over the Far West, where there are four countries with splendid civilization. Mohist figures and new painting skills were learned there." Ma Jiayun said.


    "Er!"


    Liu Yinian immediately choked and wanted to refute, but the Tianzhu figures and new painting techniques that are now popular in the Tang Dynasty are the biggest evidence.


    "Every inch has its advantages. It is not impossible for other countries to have some uniqueness." Kong Yingda nodded heavily. Even one or two unique knowledge may be enough to benefit people for life.


    Ma Jiayun shook his head and said, "I think so, but the Mohists don''t think so. They think there is a great intellectual comparable to Mozi in the Far West.


    "Comparable to Mozi?" Kong Yingda and Liu Yinian suddenly exclaimed, comparable to Mozi, isn''t it comparable to a hundred schools of thought? You know, among the achievements of all schools of thought, even Confucianism has to admit that Mozi''s achievements can at least rank in the forefront.


    "Once in a while, it''s not impossible to be an amazing person!" Kong Yingda swallowed hard.


    "However, Ma Jiayun slowly shook his head and said," it''s not one person, but several people. Even one of them''s books, Mohist Zi did not hesitate to exchange diamonds worth thousands of gold. "


    "A few people!"


    "Exchange a book for diamonds worth thousands of gold."


    Kong Yingda and Liu Yinian exclaimed at the same time.


    "If this is true, I''m afraid the Mohists will make a lot of money." they are full of poetry and books. Naturally, they know how valuable a knowledge comparable to that of a hundred schools of thought is.


    At the same time, their hearts are itchy, and they want to immediately see the knowledge comparable to hundreds of schools of thought abroad.


    At the same time, the Mohist house was a gathering of the wind and cloud, and became the focus of everyone in Chang''an city. All Chang''an City wanted to know what profound knowledge Mohists had spent so much money.


    "Master! Don''t turn around any more. Even the merchants of Daqin need time to translate. It can''t be completed without ten days and a half months."


    Merton helplessly looked at Mr. Li wandering in front of him for the fifth time.


    Knowing that Merton spent a lot of money to obtain the best knowledge in foreign countries, Master Li immediately rushed over without saying a word.


    Mr. Li immediately flattered and said, "you don''t have to finish all the translation, even part of it!"


    Mr. Li loved books as much as his life, otherwise he would not accept the post of editor in chief of Ink magazine. At the moment, it is natural that he is itchy.


    "It can''t be finished immediately," Morton said helplessly. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Although the merchants of the Qin Dynasty can speak Chinese, they can''t be proficient after all. They can''t really finish it for a while and a half.


    Master Li was immediately disappointed. Facing Su Lingnong, who was obsessed with studying seeds, he said, "brother Su, have you studied anything?"


    Su Lingnong reluctantly put down the seed in his hand and said, "it is indeed a seed not available in the Tang Dynasty, but I don''t know whether it has such effect as Hu Shang said."


    With Su Lingnong''s knowledge, I have never seen these seeds. It is impossible to say that the seeds taken out by these businessmen in a short time can deceive Su Lingnong, and these people will not bring worthless seeds for no reason.


    Could these seeds be true? Su Lingnong''s expectation could not help getting deeper.


    Master Li said indifferently, "these seeds can''t sprout before the season. It''s no use for you to stay here! Let''s go. I''ll buy you a drink today. The famous Chang''an can solve thousands of worries and drink it to your heart''s content."


    Mr. Li took Su Lingnong away and Merton was clean.


    Merton took a long breath and said, "shopkeeper Xu, return those gold ingots to all dealers immediately."


    "Ah! You borrowed the gold?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Merton strangely.


    Merton said angrily, "of course, there is so much gold in Mojia village."


    Although Mojia village is not short of money, it is more copper and silver, but for those merchants in the western regions, only silk and gold can move them.


    After thinking about it, Merton still felt that the gold was real, so he found a dealer who knew Qianchou and borrowed these gold ingots.


    Xu Jie came over with the account book, checked it and said, "the owner and other dealers have returned it, but the gold owners of Zheng Qian and his family have already spent it at the western regions event."


    In the grand event of the western regions, Merton spent a lot of money and threw a lot of gold.


    Xu Jie has seen that his boss not only has a strong ability to spend money, but also has a stronger ability to make money. Diamonds alone are worth spreading all the gold ingots.


    "Ask them if they want silver and copper money. It''s really not good. Find some banks and exchange some gold ingots for them." Merton waved and said.


    "My boss, brother Zheng Qian once said. It''s OK not to pay back the gold ingot, but only to pay the debt with diamonds." Xu Jie said with a smile.


    Merton said with a smile: "if you want to be beautiful, it will take at least a few months to polish diamonds. The land of its output is heinous. It must be valuable in the future. It''s wishful thinking to want diamonds with just a little gold."


    "Yes, my boss, I''ll exchange gold immediately and give it back to the two families." Xu Jie answered and went down to do it immediately.


    "Brother Mo!"


    A pinching voice sounded in Merton''s ear, making Merton''s goose bumps.


    "Have something to say?" Merton looked at Chumo, who was flattering.


    Chumo hesitated and said, "can you keep me one of your diamonds? Of course, the price is easy to say."


    "That''s what women love. Why do you want it?" Merton said in surprise.


    "Of course it''s a woman!" Qin Huaiyu laughed.


    Cheng blushed when he was at Merton.


    "Seriously?" Morton said in surprise.


    "My mother decided to marry me the other day," Chumo said frankly.


    "That''s a good thing! You won''t get married soon!" Merton asked.


    "No, it''s early. Get engaged first." Chumo can''t help but look at Merton bitterly. If the Mohists didn''t report the risk of early marriage and pregnancy, how could he delay his marriage. "


    Morton touched his nose awkwardly and said, "to make amends for brother Cheng, when brother Cheng gets married, my little brother asks Mojia village to make brother Cheng a diamond ring for free."


    "Of course, you too," Morton turned to Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin.


    Qin Huaiyu''s eyes lit up and said with a smile, "let mother find someone tomorrow."


    Merton suddenly stumbled and looked at the two bad friends with a sad and angry face.

 Chapter 271

    "Of course, you too." Merton turned to Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin.


    Qin Huaiyu''s eyes lit up and said with a smile, "let mother find someone tomorrow."


    Merton suddenly stumbled and looked at the two bad friends with a sad and angry face.


    In fact, when the diamond first appeared in the West City, her beauty had conquered Chang''an city.


    The hardest thing in the world will never wear out, which represents the love that will never wear out. Why can''t the powerful people in Chang''an City flock to it.


    "Lord Mo! My master said to ask you to make a diamond for my young master. The price is easy to say." a marquis housekeeper in royal clothes asked.


    Merton nodded helplessly: "that''s OK, but please tell your master that it will take a year to get the finished product."


    In just a few days, the orders received by Mojia village have been scheduled for a year, and they are all customers who can''t be rejected.


    The Royal housekeeper was not at all unhappy. Instead, he said gratefully, "thank you, Lord mo."


    Mojiazi once said at the grand meeting of the western regions that it takes several months to polish a diamond. It''s reasonable to have a longer construction period.


    Watching the Royal housekeeper leave, Merton couldn''t help sighing. It seems that the team of diamond polishing craftsmen will expand again.


    "Why are you unhappy when you make money?" Master Li said sarcastically.


    Merton sighed: "to say that a boy doesn''t love money, I''m afraid it seems too hypocritical. The boy just laments that most people in the world pursue flashy and shining things, but they don''t know that these bright but cold stones can neither satisfy people nor increase people''s wisdom, but can most move people''s hearts."


    After the western regions event, the most talked about in Chang''an city was these bright and magnificent diamonds. If Merton hadn''t rejected most orders, diamond orders could be arranged at least ten years later.


    Compared with the more precious seeds and knowledge of these diamonds, most people just take them as a conversation or two.


    Master Li was immediately silent: "the world loves the beauty of jewelry, and who cares more about what seems useless."


    Merton was also silent, and they fell into silence.


    Suddenly, Mo San''s hurried figure appeared in front of them and said with ecstasy: "Congratulations, young master. Hu Shang of the Qin Dynasty has translated the first volume."


    "Seriously!" Master Li suddenly rose up and exclaimed. He was more excited than Merton.


    "Master, please look!" Mo San presented a stack of paper. He was responsible for the translation of the merchants of the Qin Dynasty.


    Master Li grabbed it, couldn''t wait to take it, opened it and couldn''t extricate himself.


    "Don''t get friends by gifts. You must give your sincere love and learn how to win a person''s heart in a proper way."


    "The happiest thing in the world is to fight for truth.


    "People can make mistakes, but they can''t make the same mistake."


    "What I know more than others is that I know my ignorance."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Master Li was intoxicated by the wise sayings one by one. When he read the obsession, he couldn''t help dancing.


    Merton also sighed. Thousands of years in advance and thousands of miles away, Socrates, who was considered to be comparable to Kong Sheng in previous lives, finally appeared on the land of the Tang Dynasty and radiated the light of wisdom.


    After a long time, Master Li reluctantly put down the paper manuscript in his hand and trembled with excitement.


    "Priceless treasure, indeed priceless treasure." Master Li said with praise.


    Merton also nodded solemnly. The merchants of the Qin Dynasty did not deceive him. This is indeed Socrates'' knowledge. In fact, strictly speaking, this is only a book recording Socrates'' words and deeds, which is a bit similar to the Analects of Confucius.


    "Young master, the merchants of the Qin Dynasty are still waiting for the young master to reply and ask him if he is satisfied." Mo San said.


    There is a fatal flaw in the trade between Merton and the great Qin merchants. Both sides are assured by the middleman. The merchants of Daqin had to trust Merton by content. The selected fragments of his translation were all the most brilliant wisdom of Socrates, but he did not dare to guarantee whether Merton really agreed with him or not.


    Master Li sighed, "this man in the book can be called a man of great wisdom. There are several such people from ancient times to now. This book must be true."


    Master Li had already been conquered by the vast wisdom of the book. Before Merton nodded, he affirmed categorically.


    "Tell the merchant of Daqin that this book is true! As long as the translation is completed, the diamond will be presented with both hands." Merton nodded,


    "Yes, young master!" Mo San immediately took orders.


    Watching Mo San leave, Master Li read the manuscript again. He felt that he had gained a lot.


    Master Li looked at Merton solemnly and asked solemnly, "I don''t know how the Mohists are going to deal with this book?"


    Although he has a high status in Mojia village, he is a Confucian after all, and Merton bought this book with diamonds worth thousands of gold. How to deal with it is naturally up to the Mojia.


    However, such a Book of great wisdom, he naturally did not want to let the book be covered with dust and put on the shelf by Merton.


    Merton immediately realized that he understood what Master Li meant and said without hesitation: "nature is open for the world to share."


    Master Li''s eyes lit up and said suspiciously, "this is a treasure exchanged by the Mohist school. Are you willing?"


    Merton said: "the Mohist sages once encountered the same experience when they visited the far western country. A homo sapiens said, you have an apple, I have an apple, we exchange each other, or only one apple, but you have a kind of thought, I also have a kind of thought. We exchange each other, and we have two kinds of thoughts."


    Master Li immediately sighed: "Li has seen the knowledge of the far western country. As expected, there are only extraordinary things. Such a simple truth benefits people a lot."


    "No, this story tells us that what Hu merchants in the western regions said about Apple is true." Merton involuntarily peeled again.


    Master Li glared at Merton with hatred, which was really damaging the atmosphere. However, he soon didn''t care about these, but was full of joy. If this book could be published in the world, it would be the gospel of scholars in the Tang Dynasty.


    "I''ll let Mo San print it immediately when the translation of Hu Shang in the Qin Dynasty is completed," said Li Fuzi.


    Merton shook his head and said, "I''m afraid that''s too slow."


    Any news has timeliness. At the moment, the western regions event has just ended, and it is the time of hot discussion in Chang''an city. If we don''t strike while the iron is hot, I''m afraid the attention will be high at that time, and I''m afraid this book will be covered with dust.


    Master Li mused, "what do you mean?"


    "What do you think of serializing in ink?" suggested Merton.


    Serial?


    Master Li''s heart moved. As the editor in chief of Ink magazine, he was no stranger to this word. Ziyi''s comics were published in Ink magazine in the form of serial. Every time he urged Ziyi for manuscripts, he would get angry. If the audience in Chang''an city hadn''t pursued comics and helped Ink magazine a lot, he would have eliminated Ziyi.


    "Good idea." Master Li said in surprise.


    In this way, readers of the Tang Dynasty can see it in the shortest time. Secondly, they can also take the opportunity to expand the influence of ink journals. It is killing two birds with one stone.


    Master Li couldn''t help looking at Merton with appreciation. Why are you so excellent.

 Chapter 272

    "Disciple Plato asked Socrates what love is. Socrates asked Plato to go to the wheat field first and pick the largest and golden ear of wheat. He could only pick it once. He could only go forward and not turn back. Plato did as Socrates said. But when he came back, he was empty handed.


    Socrates asked him why he couldn''t get it. Plato said: "Because I can only pick it once, but I can''t go back. Even if I see a big and golden one, I don''t know if there is better ahead, so I don''t pick it. When I get to the front, I find that it is not as good as what I saw before. It turns out that the largest and golden ears in the wheat field have long been missed. Therefore, I can''t pick anything.


    Socrates said, "this is love."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The latest issue of Ink magazine published a thought-provoking story of Socrates, which immediately caused a sensation in Chang''an city.


    Before that, people in the Tang Dynasty thought that China was the kingdom of heaven, and other places were barbarians. When Merton spent a lot of money to buy this book, most people in the Tang Dynasty were skeptical.


    "Indeed great wisdom!" after reading it, everyone suddenly felt enlightened.


    Excellent culture, no matter in any era or place, will continue to shine with the light of wisdom.


    "It is indeed priceless." maybe jewelry and jade are valuable, but only this knowledge is priceless. Even if only published, a small part of it will make people feel that it is worth more.


    If people bid for Socrates'' books now, it is estimated that if the price is ten times higher, someone will buy them without hesitation.


    "The morning heard that Xi could die!"


    In the Imperial College, Kong Yingda reluctantly put down the ink journal in his hand. The ink journal published only a small part of Socrates'' knowledge, which made him addicted to it. This lingering feeling stuck in his throat.


    "What do you think?" Kong Yingda looked at a group of Guozijian doctors.


    The publication of what Mozi called "knowledge comparable to hundreds of schools of thought" naturally shocked this group of people in the highest University of the Tang Dynasty.


    Ma Jiayun seemed to wake up from a dream, gently put down his ink journal and nodded: "this man is concise and meaningful. I think what Hu Shang said in the Qin Dynasty is true. There is such a wise man in the far western country.


    Socrates uses the largest ear of wheat in the wheat field to describe love, which is very popular. Although Confucianism is old-fashioned, it is not taboo to talk about love. Most of the poems in the book of songs praise love.


    All the people present are full of poetry and books. Of course, they can see how wise Socrates is. Even such a philosophy, even if it is put on Kong Sheng, is not against peace. However, it even appears on a foreign man, which can''t help but make them feel a sense of regret.


    Shen Hongcai also sighed: "it seems that this book is indeed priceless. It must be a good story in the future for Mohist scholars to exchange treasure for books."


    The crowd sighed that even if only a small part of them could still feel the great wisdom of Socrates,


    "I''m born to be useful. I''ll come back after a thousand gold coins are gone. The Mohist son is really kind-hearted. The books exchanged for such treasures are open without money." the doctor of law recited half of Merton''s poem once and said with admiration on his face.


    A group of doctors also repeatedly lamented that in the Tang Dynasty, if someone gets some isolated fragments of their predecessors, which one is not regarded as a treasure, put it in the most precious place, or even cherish itself.


    The unique books of the Tang Dynasty, which were obtained by Mohist school at such a high price, were made public without hesitation. How can this kind of mind not be admired.


    "However, this ink magazine is only a part of the publication, which is really more meaningful." Ma Jiayun sighed.


    Shen Hongcai said, "according to Mohism, the reason why Mohism published part of it is because Hu Shang''s translation is too slow. Once translated, it will be published in Mohist journals."


    Everyone sighed for a while, but their eyes couldn''t help looking at Dr. Liu Yinian. They heard with their own ears that Liu Yinian questioned the Mo family. At the moment, when Merton published the book, everyone recognized it as true and completely slapped Liu Yinian in the face.


    "It''s just people fishing for fame!" Liu Yinian snorted coldly.


    Everyone couldn''t help laughing. Liu Yinian''s move has lost his original heart and confused the square inch. No matter what, Mozi is also a student of the Imperial College at the moment. How can there be a reason for the master to slander the students.


    Kong Yingda is also unhappy. Although Merton represents the Mohist school, which is different from the Confucian concept, after all, the Mohist son published this book selflessly, and Confucianism can benefit from it. How can he get benefits and slander people everywhere? That''s not losing the demeanor of Confucianism.


    At that moment, Kong Yingda waved his hand and said, "stones from other mountains can attack jade. In any case, this move of the Mohist school is beneficial to our knowledge and naturally goes without saying its contribution to the Tang Dynasty."


    Liu Yinian still refused to accept it. He bowed his head and said, "I admit that this man has extraordinary knowledge and is a man of great wisdom. But I''m afraid it''s too much exaggeration to say that he is comparable to all schools of thought."


    "No!" Kong Yingda shook her head slowly and said, "in my opinion, this man''s wisdom is comparable to Kong Sheng."


    "Ah!" all the Guozijian doctors were shocked and looked at Kong Yingda in surprise. They didn''t expect Kong Yingda to think so highly of this person.


    "Why did you say that?" Liu Yinian blushed. In the hearts of many scholars, Confucius''s position may be incomparable. However, since Kong Yingda admitted that this person''s wisdom is comparable to that of Kong Sheng.


    Kong Yingda said in a deep voice, "this man was born in the same era as Kong Sheng. He is also a great wisdom and a disciple of education. Even the way of educating people is the same. This man has the same status as Kong Sheng in the far western country."


    Ah! A group of Guozijian doctors realized that according to the life of Socrates published in the Mexican journal, he had only been wrong with Kong Sheng for less than a hundred years, and he was the same person of all schools of thought,


    The same question and answer method is used. Socrates uses endless questioning, while Confucius summarizes the supreme truth. They are surprisingly similar.


    However, in terms of educating his disciples, Confucius is a school of 72 sages, while Socrates is a school of three sages.


    The people suddenly sighed, what a magnificent era it will be, since there are two saints in the East and the west at the same time.


    At the same time, many people have also found many similarities between Socrates and Confucius, and more and more people agree that it is comparable to all schools of thought.


    And in the future, with the Mexican journal gradually publishing Socrates'' theory step by step, each issue can attract extensive attention. The culture from the East and the West collided for the first time in the Tang Dynasty, creating colorful sparks.

 Chapter 273

    "My way is not lonely."


    With the help of Socrates'' great wisdom and knowledge, the new issue of ink periodicals was sold out directly, which made Merton feel a little relieved. It seems that there are not many real intellectuals in the Tang Dynasty,


    However, only a small part of Socrates'' knowledge can be published in the first issue of Mexican magazine. Due to the limited space, it can only stop abruptly. If you want to read it again, you can only wait until the next issue in half a month.


    For a learned person, a sage''s great wisdom and knowledge are around him, just like a eunuch going to a brothel.


    For ordinary people, they can only wait hard, but Li Shimin doesn''t have so much patience and kills them directly.


    "Tell your majesty, this is the latest." Merton reluctantly handed the latest translated manuscript paper to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin couldn''t wait to take it and read it with interest.


    Merton couldn''t help but smile. He was speechless to Li Shimin, who became a fan of books.


    After a long time, Li Shimin sighed with satisfaction and put down his translation.


    "Hate was not born in that era." Li Shimin sighed after a long aftertaste.


    Naturally, he was also aware of the particularity of that era. If only the characters of all schools appeared in China, they were created by the times.


    However, in a country thousands of miles away, there are people like hundreds of scholars in the same era. Such an amazing coincidence makes people think deeply.


    However, for the emperor, even the best knowledge is just a tool for him. What he really cares about is the seeds in Merton''s hands. For him, no amount of knowledge can change the people''s livelihood.


    In the other courtyard of Mo house, Merton accompanied Li Shimin in. He saw Su Lingnong carefully observing the seeds in front of him. He didn''t notice Li Shimin coming in.


    "Your Majesty, why are you here?" Su Lingnong was surprised when Li Shimin came near.


    "Big Si Nong didn''t go to the court for a long time. I didn''t care about it. I came to see it specially." Li Shimin joked.


    Su Lingnong suddenly Hao Ran. These days, he is obsessed with these new seeds and ignores the affairs of the outside world. His position as a big farmer has long been put aside.


    "I beg your Majesty''s pardon for delaying government affairs!" Su Lingnong said.


    "It''s the duty of the big farmer to test new species. What''s the crime?" Li Shimin said with a smile. He went to the seed observed by Su Lingnong and looked at the pile of seeds with interest.


    "Tell your majesty, this is spinach seed. This dish is not rare in Persia and other places. Weichen has asked many merchants in the western regions, including those in the Qin Dynasty, and confirmed that there are green vegetables that can be eaten in winter in Persia and other places." Su Lingnong explained by pointing to spinach seed.


    "It''s so good!" Li Shimin said happily. Other Hu merchants confirmed that at least it is true. Although spinach is a small dish, it makes up for the biggest shortage of short board green vegetables in Datang winter.


    If it can be popularized, it will certainly be of great benefit to Datang. Even if it fails this time, it will only take a little more effort to get spinach seeds after knowing the news.


    "When will it be planted?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Your Majesty, according to the Persian Hushang, spinach seeds germinate in autumn and eat in winter. The sowing time is after the autumn harvest," Su Lingnong replied.


    "Unfortunately, the season is wrong!" sighed Li Shimin. It''s just after summer, and there''s still some time before the autumn harvest.


    "After the autumn harvest, once the trial planting is successful, I will not hesitate to reward myself." Li Shimin said proudly.


    "I don''t dare to take credit for this. This is the credit of Lord Mo!" Su Lingnong said. Merton spent a lot of money to buy these seeds, and he just depends on others.


    "Your Majesty, if you want a reward, forget the others. Then reward more gold ingots! Weichen has lost a lot of money this time. He owes a lot of gold." Merton said with a sad face. The bank is too cruel. Exchanging copper money for gold is like peeling a layer of skin.


    "I''ve seen you on the stage with my own eyes. You spend money like dirt. Why are you crying poor at this time!" Li Shimin glared at Merton. He was distressed to see so many gold ingots spilled out.


    Wutong make light of travelling a thousand li, and these merchants are coming from all over the country to get wealth and no temptation to pay much money. These people will not even look at it. "


    "Spinach seeds are good. They benefit the country and the people. How can you explain that you spent 20 gold on such luxury things?" Li Shimin said immediately.


    Although he knew Merton''s intention to spend so much money, it was obvious that he hated Merton''s extravagance. Even he himself had never wasted so much.


    Su Lingnong also couldn''t help twitching. In his opinion, the white stack that can only make luxury things is no more important than the spinach seeds that can let people eat green vegetables in winter, and mojiazi bought it at twice the price.


    Merton gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, if you say other seeds, Weichen can''t guarantee it, but baidiezi, Weichen can prove its value now."


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin said suspiciously,


    Even Su Lingnong looked at Merton in surprise. According to the merchant of Gaochang, the time for planting baidiezi has passed. How can Merton prove it?


    In their puzzled eyes, Merton rushed to take a bulging package. Merton opened it and presented it to Li Shimin.


    "Is this a cloth quilt?" Su Lingnong asked. The cloth quilt is used by the people of the Tang Dynasty. It is usually made of hemp and Ge, while the rich people call it a brocade quilt, which is made of silk. Of course, the price is very expensive.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is a cotton quilt."


    "Cotton quilt?" Li Shimin and Su Lingnong were confused.


    "The cloth quilt has been as cold as iron for many years, and jiao''er is evil to lie down and crack inside. Mojia village has come all the way from poverty. Even Wei Chen was a cloth quilt for many years. It can be said that it is a long night in winter..."


    "Get to the point!" Li Shimin hated Merton, who was going to complain incessantly. The boy didn''t even forget to show his talent.


    Merton immediately said directly, "cotton is the product of baidiezi with seeds. It is extremely soft and warm. After Weichen got the seeds, he inadvertently found the benefits of cotton, so he filled the cotton in the cloth quilt and made it into a cotton quilt. It is extremely light but extremely warm. With this cotton quilt, people will no longer have the worry of being frozen on winter nights."


    After Merton got baidiezi seeds, he remembered the benefits of cotton. He bought all the cotton from Hu merchants in Gaochang and made a cotton quilt for himself.


    That is, the common quilt in later generations.

 Chapter 274

    "It''s really light and soft!"


    Su Lingnong picked up the quilt and weighed it carefully. He was surprised. Although it was not as light as the brocade quilt, it was much better than the hard and heavy cloth quilt.


    "And it''s warm."


    Li Shimin draped the cotton quilt over his body. After a while, he felt sweating. The thermal effect was better than that of cloth and brocade.


    They were so excited that they didn''t enjoy their direct observation. They tore a big hole in the cotton quilt and took out a lot of white cotton from it.


    Merton looked at the corners of his mouth. This is a unique cotton quilt in the world. He was born and died before he could use it.


    Merton added: "in addition to making cotton blankets, these cotton can also be filled between clothes and made into winter clothes. As long as this thing is popularized, our people in the Tang Dynasty will no longer have to endure the bitter cold of winter."


    "How about the output?" Su Lingnong asked.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "cotton is light, if nothing, it''s not appropriate to measure it by weight. However, I estimate that the cotton planted on an acre of land is enough to keep the family free from cold."


    "Well, let alone 20 gold, that''s 200 gold and 2000 gold. It''s also worth it." Li Shimin said excitedly.


    In the winter of the Tang Dynasty, there is a lack of things to keep out the cold. The rich people have mink fur and brocade clothes to keep out the cold, but the poor people not only lack clothes to keep out the cold, but even most of the cloth beds are filled with wheat straw to keep out the cold.


    Every winter is the most difficult time for the poor people in Datang. Once the temperature drops suddenly and the sky is cold, the cold will kill people every year.


    "Moreover, cottonseed is rich in oil. It remains to be verified whether it can be eaten, but at least it can be lit as an oil lamp. There is no problem," Merton said.


    Every night in Datang, it is dark. The biggest reason is that the cost of lighting in this era is very huge. Most rich people use candles. Although they are clean, they cost a lot.


    Ordinary people often use oil lamps. Most of the oil comes from edible oil. Ordinary people don''t even have enough oil and water to eat. They are willing to light the lamps there.


    According to Merton''s memory, although cottonseed can extract oil, it contains toxins. Without deep processing, it will cause men to regret all their lives. In addition, lighting oil is also a huge market and has no worries about sales.


    "It''s a treasure all over the body. Popularizing it one day earlier will benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty one day earlier. I immediately sent envoys to Gao Changguo to get seeds and vigorously promote it in the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said excitedly.


    For the poor people, the most important thing is land. As long as it can be planted in the soil, all problems are not a problem.


    "Your Majesty can''t?" Su Lingnong quickly stopped.


    "What?" Li Shimin immediately wondered. If Merton objected, Li Shimin could understand. After all, Merton bought it at a high price. If the Imperial Court went to Gaochang to get seeds, wouldn''t the twenty gold of the Mohist family be in vain.


    But how could su Lingnong, as a big farmer, object to such things that benefit the country and the people?


    Su Lingnong explained, "Your Majesty, planting makers can be different from others, but they will be different according to the weather and soil. If there is a slight difference, it will be orange in Huainan and orange in Huaibei. Gaochangguo and Datang have different climates. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate to promote it rashly."


    Li Shimin suddenly knew that he was in a hurry.


    Merton couldn''t help admiring Su Lingnong, who was a real farmer.


    He understands that in many cases, although it is simple and fast, it has endless consequences. In fact, we only heard what seeds were introduced into China in future generations, but we don''t know that these seeds were domesticated for generations before they took root in the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Shimin slowly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he was a little anxious. Then he took a deep breath and said, "even so, there are only a few seeds in your hands. How can you try planting."


    Merton immediately showed a shy expression and said sheepishly, "Your Majesty, since he found that cotton can keep warm, he has placed a large number of orders with Hu merchants in the western regions, but a large number of cotton with cottonseed must come in February!"


    At this time, there was no popping tool. Even Gao Changguo''s stripping of cotton seeds was a troublesome thing. Although baidiezi was more valuable, the cotton with cotton seeds was cheap. Merton took the opportunity to purchase a large number of goods.


    Li Shimin immediately heard the speech and stared at Merton with hatred and said, "do I mean your boy is smart or your boy is greedy for money?"


    It is conceivable that once this soft and warm new cotton quilt is on the market, it will be popular in Chang''an city. At that time, the twenty gold of Mohist school will not come.


    "Don''t you plan ahead, boy? I hollowed out the Mojia village at the western regions event, and now I still owe a lot of money," Morton said bitterly.


    Even he has to prepare fifty gold from Johor businessmen! There were also a steady stream of seeds sent by merchants from the western regions. All these needed yellow gold. After careful calculation, Merton suddenly saw Venus. It could be said that he was happy at that time and regretted it.


    Thinking of this, Merton couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin. At the moment, he hoped that Li Shimin''s tiger body would shake, waved his hand and said: I''ll pay this gold.


    "It''s up to you and others to try it first, and be sure to get cotton seeds suitable for Datang planting." Li Shimin directly ignored Merton''s poor expression and said his ability to make money. The boy had to say second in Chang''an City, no one dared to say first, and dared to cry poor in front of him.


    "Yes!" Merton and sullingnon answered at the same time.


    "If Johor rice is true! That''s the greatest blessing of the Tang Dynasty."


    The success of cotton seeds proved that what Hu merchants said was true. Li Shimin couldn''t help looking forward to the improved rice mentioned by Johor merchants,


    Merton said, "tell your majesty, from the boy''s point of view, there is no need for Johor businessmen to lie. Of course, the boy also said clearly that this rice seed needs to be planted in Lingnan road before it can be paid to this person."


    "It''s double gold." Li Shimin stabbed Morton coldly.


    Merton immediately dropped blood in his heart and said, "if this rice is true, the Mohists will pay for it."


    "Seriously?"


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly coagulated. It''s a hundred gold. Even if rice is true, it doesn''t do much good to the Mohist school, and what''s the purpose of the Mohist school? "


    Merton said without hesitation: "boy, in the ink technology exhibition, he once said that the Mohists want to lead the Mohist village to a well-off society. The prerequisite for reaching a well-off society is to solve the problem of food and clothing.


    If you are poor, you can be alone and help the world. Cotton and rice seeds are the gifts for the people of the Tang Dynasty to solve food and clothing. The people of the Tang Dynasty know etiquette and honor and disgrace when they have enough food and clothing. Only when the people of the Tang Dynasty no longer have the worry of hunger and cold, and the theory of a hundred schools naturally prospers, will the Mohist School rise again. "


    When Mohist school first appeared in Chang''an City, Merton knew that Mohist school was destined to keep a low profile, and Merton never concealed the ambition of Mohist school to rise again. As a famous school, if Mohist school tried to cover up, it would make people suspicious, but it would not be as good as big fight.

 Chapter 275

    "Food and clothing, well-off!"


    Su Lingnong tasted slowly, his eyes gradually brightened, and at the same time, a sense of shame rose to his heart. In fact, they should solve the problem of food and clothing for the people of the Tang Dynasty,


    However, it is not too late. With this seed, the problem of food and clothing in the world can certainly be solved.


    "Well off?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Rich!" Merton said without hesitation.


    Li Shimin thought: "rich?"


    "At that time, people will have no worries about food and clothing, education for the young, security for the elderly, medical care for the sick, and everyone will live and work in peace and contentment. From then on, everyone will be able to live in a high-rise mansion, all teenagers will be well educated, and everyone will be able to receive free medical care." Merton painted a moving picture.


    "Is this possible?"


    Su Lingnong was immersed in it and couldn''t extricate himself for a long time.


    "Of course, it can be realized. If it can''t be realized in ten or eight years, it will be realized in 80 or 100 years one day." Merton said in a deep voice.


    Li Shimin was shocked. Isn''t this the case in today''s Mojia village? If the whole world is like Mojia village, no, even if it reaches half of the level of Mojia village, will his country of Li Tang be eternal.


    Farmers, doctors, Mohists... All kinds of schools flashed through Li Shimin''s mind one by one, thinking secretly that perhaps the era of a hundred schools of thought is the real existence suitable for the Tang Dynasty.


    "Of course, the best way to measure whether the people are rich or not depends on the money in his hands. If each household can deposit 100000 money, it can probably be called rich!" Merton''s sentence directly destroyed the atmosphere.


    "Vulgar!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    "You really dare to think that there is so much copper money in Datang with 100000 yuan per household." Su Lingnong shook his head and said with a smile,


    There are three million households in Datang. If each household saves 100000 money, Su Lingnong will be dizzy. They can''t even think of such a large number.


    Li Shimin is also a burst of laughter. If so, how much copper does it need!


    The Tang Dynasty has always been short of copper. In the daily transaction process, silk, Juan and silk are usually used as currency. There is a sentence in "selling charcoal Weng" that "half a horse of red yarn and one foot of silk are used to fill the cow''s head with carbon value."


    Although it depicts the scene of palace people exploiting the poor people, it proves that silk was indeed used as money in the Tang Dynasty.


    "It was impossible before, but I''m afraid it would be possible if cotton was popularized in the Tang Dynasty?" Su Lingnong suddenly said.


    "Bai diezi!" Li Shimin said suddenly.


    At this time, the white folding is comparable to the luxury of silk. Since a barbarian country like the western regions can be woven, how can it be a secret in the hands of the Mohists.


    Merton nodded and said, "the cotton quilt and cotton coat are only after the boy gets the cotton that he finds its value, and the boy''s original purpose is to fold the white."


    Li Shimin hurriedly asked, "so the Mohist school has cracked the weaving method of baidiezi?"


    Merton nodded and said, "it''s not difficult. Weichen took the cotton to Mojia village. In just a few days, all the drawings from cotton stripping, spinning and even weaving have been made."


    "This Mohist school can''t be spread!" Li Shimin said urgently.


    "Why is this?" Su Lingnong didn''t understand. It is reasonable to say that if baidiezi is woven in large quantities, it will be a great income for the people of the Tang Dynasty, but Li Shimin even said something to stop it.


    Merton explained: "Lord Su doesn''t know. The people of the Tang Dynasty are short of copper money. Many of their purchases are made of silk instead of copper money. If a large number of white stacks with value comparable to silk suddenly appear in the hands of the people of the Tang Dynasty and use them to buy goods, Lord Su can think about what will happen."


    This is as like as two peas of principle of banknote spamming. If a large number of banknotes are surged on the market, it will cause a great depreciation of paper currency. Although silk and white stack are worth more than paper money, they are not real currencies after all.


    After Merton explained the principle again, Su Lingnong suddenly realized it.


    "Besides being used for trading, silk can also be used, but if the people already have enough baidiezi, I''m afraid they won''t want silk and Juan when selling." Merton said another serious thing. If baidiezi is introduced into Datang, I''m afraid it will cause silk products to withdraw from Datang money market.


    The biggest reason why silk can be used as money is that the people have high demand for it, but if the people''s demand drops sharply, it can no longer be used as money.


    Li Shimin immediately looked embarrassed. He didn''t expect that the cotton that benefits the country and the people should be involved in the reshuffle of the money market.


    If the silk depreciates greatly, the imperial court will lose the most. The Tang Dynasty practised the rent and Yong modulation, and the mediocrity was the collection of silk, and a large quantity of silk was in the hands of the court. Once the price of silk goods falls sharply, the loss of the imperial court is not one or two.


    "Why don''t you postpone the trial planting of cotton?" Su Lingnong said timidly. There are too many interests involved.


    Merton couldn''t help but sigh that the decline of farmers was not without reasons. Its pattern and vision were too small.


    Li Shimin pondered for a while, looked at Merton and asked, "what do the Mohists think?"


    As soon as Merton''s heart tightened, he immediately knew that Li Shimin''s test was coming. After thinking about it for less than three seconds, he immediately nodded and said, "the Mohist school has always been guided by the three table method. The first table," this is the matter of the ancient holy king "; the second table," this is the truth of the people''s ears and eyes "; and the third table," Abolishing (hair) as a criminal policy and viewing the interests of the country''s people ". Weichen believes that this is applicable to the third table."


    "Abolish (hair) as a criminal policy and view the interests of the country and the people." Li Shimin said.


    "That''s right! The cotton promotion will help the people of the Tang Dynasty to stop suffering from the cold. How can we let the people suffer from the cold because we look forward and backward." Merton said.


    "If there is a large backlog of silk, what about sanghu?" Li Shimin asked.


    Merton smiled and said, "in the west market, a large number of Hu merchants come all the way for silk, but we are worried about too much silk?"


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "it takes one or two years for Hu merchants in the western regions to travel at a time, and the camel team can''t carry much silk at all."


    "Then we can put the silk trade at Yumen pass, so that we can save at least 3000 miles, save half the time for Hu merchants, and even set up caravans to send them to countries in the western regions and even countries in the extreme West.


    In this way, when the silk of Datang sells well in western countries, it is unknown whether the silk can be enough. At the same time, a lot of money rolls in, and the money shortage crisis of Datang will be solved naturally. "


    Merton described a great scene, which made Li Shimin''s heart beat.


    "Moreover, the tools for cotton seed peeling and spinning are very simple, and the craftsmen in Chang''an city can easily do it. It is sooner or later that baidiezi will appear in the Tang Dynasty. It is better to plan early than panic at that time."


    Merton made his final decision.

 Chapter 276

    "In fact, apart from the seeds, I came here today to find Da Si Nong." Li Shimin looked at Su Lingnong.


    "The old minister panicked. I don''t know what your majesty needs?" Su Lingnong hurriedly said.


    "Since ancient times, there must be a plague of locusts after the severe drought. Today, it is a severe drought in early spring. Although the army and people in Guanzhong have worked together to get through the drought, I am afraid of another terrible plague of locusts in the second year of Zhenguan. I want to find a big farmer to explore the situation, prepare in advance and prevent it."


    Li Shimin thought of the plague of locusts covering the land in the second year of Zhenguan, and couldn''t help fighting a cold war.


    "Tell your majesty that since the second year of Zhenguan, your majesty has swallowed locusts and made clear his ambition to ghosts and gods. From then on, there will be no worries about locusts in the Tang Dynasty." Su Lingnong flattered.


    When Li Shimin heard Su Lingnong''s compliment, he felt a burst of pride. It was the most dazzling thing in his life that he swallowed locusts to kill locusts.


    Li Shimin looked modest and modest, but boasted: "although I had killed the locusts at that time, after a few years, I was afraid that the locust God would break his word and start to do harm again and again."


    During the spring drought, Li Shimin angrily beheaded the Dragon King and got rid of ignorance and superstition. Naturally, he didn''t believe that swallowing a locust could subdue the locust plague forever.


    "Wei Chen has already given orders. If there are signs of locust disaster, come immediately. Wei Chen is not in the government these days, but everyone in the Si Nong Temple knows that the old minister is in the Mo mansion and has not come to report the locust disaster." Su Lingnong wondered.


    Li Shimin was also depressed and said, "not only that, there was no sign of locust disaster reported by the counties in the pass. I was also worried. I came to find the big Si Nong and went outside Chang''an city to explore together."


    There will be locusts in a severe drought. This is the law for thousands of years. Li Shimin is really worried if he is not sure. At the same time, he is also worried that some county officials hide locusts and do not report them for fear of causing great disaster.


    Merton said, "Your Majesty, the boy knows a little about it."


    Li Shimin looked at Merton and immediately said, "I forgot if you didn''t say it. There was no sign of locust disaster in the ink magazine!"


    Merton nodded and said, "at this time, there was no locust disaster in all roads in Guanzhong. On the one hand, in spring, the army and the people fought a large-scale drought together, reducing the drought."


    Su Lingnong nodded. Alleviating the drought can indeed alleviate the plague of locusts.


    "The second is Guanzhong area. Since the Mohist School created the artificial incubation technology, it took the lead in selling chicken, duck and goose cubs to all parts of Guanzhong. Now the chickens and ducks are farmed by all families in Guanzhong area. These locusts are the natural food of chickens and ducks," Merton continued.


    Li Shimin immediately opened his eyes, stared at Merton strangely and said, "you mean these chickens and ducks have eliminated the plague of locusts?"


    Morton nodded solemnly and said, "it''s natural for chickens to eat insects. The people in Guanzhong are short of surplus food. Where are they willing to feed chickens and ducks with food, and the locusts all over the mountains are the most natural food for chickens, ducks and geese. Among the people in Guanzhong, they catch a large number of locusts to feed chickens and ducks, and even drive chickens and ducks to the fields, just like grazing, and let them catch locusts and look for food by themselves."


    "Herd chickens and ducks." Li Shimin immediately brightened his eyes.


    Merton praised: "Your Majesty''s description is very appropriate. The people saved food and destroyed locusts. This method can kill two birds with one stone."


    "Chickens and ducks can eliminate the plague of locusts?" Su Lingnong said incredulously. From his long life, every plague of locusts was a desperate struggle.


    "One or two chickens and ducks is certainly impossible, but what if there were thousands or tens of thousands of chickens and ducks?" Merton said. Before that, due to the scarcity of poultry, it was naturally impossible to have such a large-scale chickens and ducks. However, since the Mohist School created the artificial incubation Technology, the number of chickens, ducks and geese has no longer become a limit, and it is possible to herd chickens and ducks to kill locusts. Otherwise, even if you know the method, Can only sigh, helpless.


    "Of course, a large-scale plague of locusts is impossible, but it''s not a problem to eliminate the emerging plague of locusts and a small-scale plague of locusts. The Mohist experimental field outside Nancheng is grazing ducks to kill locusts. I wonder if your majesty is interested in seeing it." Merton said.


    "What are you waiting for?" Su Lingnong said impatiently. If this locust killing method can be achieved, I''m afraid it will be the blessing of the people all over the world.


    Outside the south gate, the Mohist experimental field.


    "Quack quack!"


    As soon as Li Shimin got off the carriage, they heard a deafening sound wave coming to their faces.


    "What''s the sound?" Li Shimin said with his mouth open.


    Su Lingnong immediately looked very wonderful and said loudly, "Your Majesty, this is the voice of the duck."


    Li Shimin secretly complained that although he had been in the deep palace for a long time, he had not seen the domestic duck. Although the domestic duck was a little noisy, it was not so noisy.


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "Your Majesty, this is the cry of tens of thousands of ducks."


    At this moment, it is already the sunset, and Li Shimin has seen a spectacular scene.


    A duck carrying a fat round belly was driven out of the field by the children of the Mohists. Locusts flew everywhere, but they were caught and swallowed by ducks like lightning.


    Ten, a hundred, a thousand, and even tens of thousands, one by one, like victorious returning soldiers, proudly boasting their military achievements.


    "Young master!" seeing his young master coming, Mo Da hurried forward.


    "How did the locusts go?" Su Lingnong asked hurriedly.


    "If you return to Lord Su, you have invested nearly 10000 ducks this time. In just one day, you can ensure that the locusts in the hundreds of Mu experimental field will be wiped out." with a dark face, you know that Lord Su is a senior official in the court, so you quickly replied.


    "Can a little duck eat so many locusts?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    "Adults don''t know. Domestic ducks eat a lot, and they are slow and easy to manage, which is much easier than herding chickens." Mo Da wiped a sweat and smiled. Although he didn''t know Li Shimin, he also knew that the young master must be accompanied by Dagui officials.


    Li Shimin didn''t believe it. He went to the field to investigate it himself. He found that where the ducks passed, not only locusts but also some insects were eliminated.


    You know, in this era, there are no pesticides and no chemicals. Locusts are banned repeatedly. I didn''t expect that duck herding could have such an effect.


    "Tell your majesty, locusts are hard to forbid. In addition to being able to reproduce in large numbers, they are also hard to catch and can fly and migrate. As long as they are discovered in advance and released, their locust disaster can be eliminated in the bud. Moreover, the shepherd ducks raised by the people taste fat and beautiful, which is a rare delicacy," Merton said.


    Su Lingnong was very excited: "good! With this good prescription, Datang will no longer be afraid of locust disaster."


    He couldn''t help but be a little more grateful to Merton. Merton had previously promoted the artificial incubation technology in the whole Datang. Datang certainly didn''t lack chickens and ducks. As long as the duck herding method was promoted throughout the country, the occurrence of locusts in Datang was almost reduced to the lowest.


    "The ancients did not deceive me when misfortune came and fortune came and misfortune came." Li Shimin sighed.


    Cotton looks like the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, but there is a hidden disaster that makes the currency of the Tang Dynasty collapse. The plague of locusts is a great disaster. Unexpectedly, there is a way to remove the duck herding method to achieve the delicious food of duck herding.


    "Happiness and misfortune depend on each other. What we do is to seek happiness and avoid misfortune, and man will conquer heaven." Merton''s voice is sonorous and powerful, and even the croaking of thousands of ducks can''t be drowned.

 Chapter 277

    Having obtained the method to eliminate the locust plague and solved the great trouble, Li Shimin returned to the palace with great joy.


    Su Lingnong also left immediately. He had left the Si Nong temple for too long and had a lot of government affairs to deal with. At the same time, he also had to spread the method of killing locusts to all roads in the world. Summer and autumn were the peak of locust outbreak. Even if there was no worry in Guanzhong area, other places could not help it.


    After they left, Merton helplessly looked at a large bag of diamonds in his hand and couldn''t help sighing.


    These are the fine works selected by Li Shimin from the palace treasure house. They are all the fine works of tribute from some vassal states, all of which are of high value.


    "So it is!" Murton sighed.


    Even a wise Saint like Li Shimin has a huge harem to appease, and those yingyanyan can''t escape the charm of diamonds.


    Merton handed a bag of diamonds to Moda and said, "give this batch of gemstones to master Zhang and tell him to divide half of the manpower to catch up with this batch!"


    Modaton said, "young master, but our previous diamond orders are full!"


    "Then add another hand," Merton said without hesitation.


    Fortunately, Merton does not receive many orders, and the time is very ample. Even if the delivery is late, these people know that it is because they are late to catch up with the work for the palace. I''m afraid they can''t wait to put their orders in the end, which is not enough to express their loyalty.


    "Yes!" said Mo da.


    With the method of grazing chickens and ducks to kill locusts spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, the whole government paid close attention to the locust disaster in the Tang Dynasty.


    In fact, the Guanzhong area with chickens, ducks and geese did not have locust disasters. On the contrary, there were small locust disasters in Luoyang and other places not far away.


    Outside Luoyang.


    Luoyang made Zhou Hongde look sad at the locusts flying outside. Zhou Hongde had an extremely difficult year.


    Luoyang city is as famous as Chang''an city. Except that it is not the capital city, Luoyang city is not inferior to Chang''an City in any aspect, and Luoyang order is equal to Chang''an order in terms of level.


    Even in the assessment of the bureaucrats of previous dynasties, Zhou Hongde and Su Luosheng were compared. However, with the strong support of Mojia village, Chang''an made Su Luosheng live a prosperous life.


    First, the city''s early warning system, then the pilot of the tax sharing system, and then the city''s public transport system. One by one, Su Luosheng became a popular man in front of the emperor. It can be imagined that Su Luosheng must be ahead of him in the assessment of the Ministry of officials this year.


    However, at this time, a small-scale plague of locusts occurred in Luoyang. Although it has not yet reached the extent of overwhelming, it is certain that if it is not controlled, the production of Luoyang will be reduced.


    "My Lord! All the chickens and ducks around Luoyang City have been found. I''ll wait for your orders." martial master came to report.


    "I hope the Mohist method of killing locusts is useful?" Luoyang Ling took a deep breath, and there was only one method in front of him.


    Fortunately, Luoyang is a huge market with a great demand for chickens, ducks and geese. In the first half of the year, Mojia village sent chicken, duck and goose cubs to Luoyang. There are not a few ducks on the Yellow River beach next to Luoyang, so that Luoyang order can raise enough chickens, ducks and geese in a short time.


    At the command of Luoyang, a large number of chickens and ducks were quickly mobilized from villages near Luoyang, and a large number of chickens and ducks were rushed to the fields.


    Zhou Hongde anxiously waited for news on the official road, praying secretly in his heart.


    "Congratulations, sir. The method of killing locusts is really effective!" the master shouted from the field in surprise.


    "Seriously?" Luoyang ordered Zhou Hongde to rise suddenly and hurried to the field to check it himself,


    I saw that the locusts were completely destroyed where chickens, ducks and geese passed in the field. Even if there were a little fish left behind, it could not form a plague of locusts and cause much harm.


    "Hahaha, God helps me too!" Luoyang surprised Zhou Hongde. If you can put out the locust plague in time, it must be a credit. If a great disaster becomes a credit, how can Zhou Hongde not be ecstatic.


    Thinking of this, Zhou Hongde immediately couldn''t help himself. He immediately ordered: "send orders to all counties to immediately organize chickens, ducks and geese to kill locusts. If there is any slack, we will punish them."


    "Yes, sir!" the master replied and ordered to go down. Immediately, a group of Yamen soldiers rode fast horses to the counties to give orders.


    If I had the ability to kill locusts, I wouldn''t be so embarrassed even compared with Su Luosheng.


    "Master, Mohist magazine wants to interview adults about killing locusts!" after the martial master ordered the order, he came to report.


    "Mohism, ink magazine!" Luoyang made Zhou hongdeton''s eyes brighten.


    Ink magazine is the hottest new thing in Chang''an city. From the ministers of the court to the peddlers and soldiers, all read Ink magazine. Although the publication of Ink magazine in Luoyang has fallen behind for two or three days, its charm has not been reduced at all. Even Zhou Hongde is also a loyal reader of ink magazine.


    If the credit for killing locusts could be published in ink journals, wouldn''t it be a great reputation for him, even to heaven.


    "Please come soon?" Zhou Hongde hurriedly said.


    After a while, shiye led Xu Jie to come forward.


    "See Lord Zhou, foreign affairs manager Xu Jie of Mojia village!" Xu Jie went up to salute.


    The Mojia village is opening up the Luoyang market. It is the time to need the strong support of the Luoyang magistrate. It is just right that Xu Jie can take advantage of this to have a good relationship with the Luoyang magistrate. Naturally, Xu Jie will not miss this opportunity and personally play a guest role in the Mojia style collector.


    "I have heard for a long time that Mr. Xu is the right-hand man of Lord mo. when I see him today, he really deserves his reputation." Zhou Hongde said kindly.


    "The praise of adults is too high. It all depends on the trust of the owner. Villains don''t dare to take credit." Xu Jie said.


    "Lord Mo is famous even in Luoyang. This locust killing method has saved hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang!" Zhou Hongde said.


    "This is a meritorious command by an adult. Xu will truthfully let Mo magazine report." Xu Jieyi pointed out.


    Zhou hongdeton knew when he was in trouble. He laughed and said, "I heard that the public carriage system of the Mohist school is beneficial to the country and the people. I also suffer from the hardships of traveling in Luoyang City. After this locust disaster, Luoyang City will also set up a public transportation system in Luoyang. I hope shopkeeper Xu can help me."


    Zhou Hongde is not just paying tribute. The public transport system has been proved to be beneficial to the people. Luoyang is not afraid of backwardness, but if he turns a blind eye, I''m afraid it will be dereliction of duty.


    Zhou Hongde also had the intention to set up a bus for a long time. He just took this opportunity to offer flowers to Buddha.


    "I''ll work for adults." Xu Jie breathed a sigh of relief secretly. He was able to get the support of Luoyang order, and Mojia village also established a foothold in Luoyang City.


    Facts have proved that the method of killing locusts by chickens, ducks and geese is indeed feasible. In less than ten days, the locust disaster in Luoyang has been controlled.


    When the news came back to Chang''an City, it can be said that the whole court was a sensation. The experimental field in Mojia village is only an experiment, and the locust disaster in Luoyang is the real proof that the method of grazing ducks to kill locusts is feasible.


    After overcoming the drought in succession, Datang overcame the locust disaster again. At the same time, with the help of God, a heavy rain covering the whole north of Datang completely eliminated the hidden danger of locust disaster in Datang.

 Chapter 278

    "Tiger barbed chicken?"


    "You lose. Chickens eat worms and worms eat sticks."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Unconsciously, a game of tiger Bonzi chicken spread from Mojia village became popular in Chang''an City, especially when adults used it to make drinking orders on the wine table.


    In the fish champion building, almost every box can hear the sound of shouting tiger bar chicken.


    "Stop playing!"


    Merton said dejectedly. He found that he couldn''t compare with these dandies in terms of eating, drinking and fun.


    Even if the tiger barbed chicken is passed from his own hands, Qin Huaiyu''s talent is absolutely amazing. Merton can be described as losing in a row.


    Naturally, several people don''t drink and have fun at this time. After dinner, they have to go to the Imperial College. It''s a big mistake to drink and have classes at the Imperial College. Even Qin Huaiyu can''t easily break it.


    Chumo bit the duck leg happily and said with relish, "don''t mention the others. The duck meat eaten by locusts is really delicious."


    At this moment, the threat of locust disaster has been lifted, and a large number of domestic ducks have poured into the market. They grow up eating locusts, and the domestic ducks raised in captivity have extremely fat duck meat, which is very popular with the people of Chang''an city.


    Qin Huaiyu and others also nodded and ate the duck meat happily. At the same time, they despised Merton''s habit of eating only the duck neck. In their opinion, the duck neck without two liang meat is not enough to plug their teeth!


    After a big duck meal, everyone was very happy. One by one, they spread their food on the chairs and talked about some interesting things that had happened recently.


    "Have you heard that the floods in Shandong and Henan are more serious. Even the Yellow River has been in danger for several times. It is said that the local garrison has been dispatched, which has saved many times." Qin Huaiyu whispered.


    Since Merton started to use the army to resist natural disasters, this side has been popularized in the Tang Dynasty. It is obvious that this time there was leisure in the Yellow River. Li Shimin also used this side to mobilize the local army in time. Only then did he get through several difficulties without danger.


    "I hope Qufu will be all right," Kong huisuo prayed. In the face of such a natural disaster, manpower can play little role.


    There was a sudden silence, and the whole room was silent.


    At this time, the box door was suddenly opened, and Fubo, who was wet all over, rushed in, walked to Merton and whispered, "someone from the palace called, and your majesty convened a grand court meeting to discuss important matters."


    Since it is the Grand Court meeting, it means that all officials with grades should participate. Although Merton has no official rank, he is a marquis after all, and is also among the signs of the Grand Court meeting.


    Merton was shocked immediately. He quickly apologized to several people and left in a hurry.


    When Qin Huaiyu saw Merton leave, they couldn''t help sighing that they were also young people. They were just students of the Imperial College, but Merton had reached the threshold of entering the palace for discussion.


    Even if everyone had a good relationship, for a moment, several people suddenly became dull.


    When Merton walked out of the fish champion building, he saw that the carriage in the palace at the door was waiting. Merton boarded the carriage, and the eunuch driving immediately started, all the way to the palace.


    In the Tai Chi hall,


    Hundreds of officials gathered, one by one worried and talked about it.


    Merton braved the heavy rain to enter the Tai Chi hall. Seeing that the others in the Tai Chi hall had arrived, he consciously walked to the back of himself.


    "How''s general Xi?" Merton asked, touching Xi Junmai, who was still the last ranking general.


    Xi Junmai had already seen Merton. He wanted to ignore him. He didn''t expect the boy to stick up again. He had no choice but to bow his head and whisper: "there is a danger in the Yellow River. Duan Shangshu is reporting the water situation to the emperor!"


    Merton''s heart sank. It was really a flood.


    Duan Lun said, "there have been 12 dangerous situations from Luoyang to Shandong. Fortunately, the 16 guards have personally rescued the danger, which is stable. However, the water level is still rising.


    In addition, now the heavy rain in Guanzhong is still continuous, and the water level of Weihe River has risen to the highest in history. I''m afraid if it goes on like this... "


    Li Shimin said sternly, "what will happen?"


    Duan Lun gritted his teeth and said, "I''m afraid there will be a flood."


    The whole dynasty was stagnant, and the flood was merciless. In all disasters, the flood left a desperate memory for everyone.


    Unlike drought and locusts, they only destroy crops, while floods ruthlessly devour human life and destroy everything wherever they go.


    "The old minister thought that this matter must be investigated for the dereliction of duty of the Ministry of work. The imperial court invested huge money in the governance of the Yellow River every year, but it did not appear at all, and the Ministry of work would have an unshirkable responsibility." Wang Yushi said loudly. He was repeatedly out of favor in front of Li Shimin because of Merton. This is his opportunity to show.


    "Your Majesty, the Yellow River is a problem of all dynasties, not owned by this dynasty, and this year''s heavy rain is once in a century. This is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster." an official of the Ministry of work immediately argued for himself, and the two sides immediately debated.


    The Yellow River is the mother river of China and gave birth to the whole Chinese civilization. However, since the Han Dynasty, the Yellow River has gradually become the biggest pain in the hearts of Chinese children. It has changed its course for many times, and each time it changes its course, it hurts people deeply.


    All dynasties have put harnessing the Yellow River as the top priority, but it is difficult to achieve results.


    "Well, now is not the time to investigate who is right and who is wrong. The key is how to spend the flood?" Li Shimin snapped as he patted the Dragon chair.


    Suddenly, all officials were silent and bowed their heads.


    "Your Majesty, the Mohist school has overcome drought and locust disasters. It can be seen that the Mohist school has a great deal of research on farming. Maybe it also has a way to deal with floods. How about asking Lord MOH to relieve his Majesty''s worries?" Sun Wuji came out,.


    Although Merton came in quietly, naturally he couldn''t hide the eyes and ears of the people present. In a moment, everyone looked at Merton.


    Xi Junmai leaned over without any loyalty and directly exposed Merton''s in front of all the ministers.


    "Hi..."


    Merton awkwardly showed his head and waved to the ministers. Suddenly, his face was full of black lines.


    "Cough!" Li Shimin was also helpless and said, "Merton, the Mohists can have a way to deal with flood."


    Merton pondered for a moment and said carefully, "build water conservancy?"


    Suddenly, the Minister of civil and military affairs immediately stared at Merton with murderous eyes. They saw Merton pondering and thought Merton had an idea. Unexpectedly, Merton said a nonsense.


    The construction of water conservancy, and you Mohist said, who doesn''t know the benefits of water conservancy. Unfortunately, it''s easy to say and difficult to do. The construction of water conservancy was not a big project, and it had little effect. It couldn''t be successful in ten or eight years.

 Chapter 279

    "Mo family, this is the court hall. It''s not a joke. If you''re fooling around like this, I''ll take part in your book." the Royal historian blew his beard and glared


    He hated Merton deeply. Now he caught Merton''s pigtail and attacked him naturally.


    "Don''t be kidding, nephew mo. he is proficient in learning from hundreds of schools and runs through China and foreign countries. He is a rare dish in the Tang Dynasty. Please don''t hide your privacy. If you can solve the flood of the Yellow River, I will ask the emperor for help for you?" sun Wuji said kindly.


    Merton secretly scolded the eldest sun Wuji old Yin goods, directly gave him a hand in killing, and told him not to hide his secrets. He said it as if he didn''t make an idea or deliberately didn''t contribute.


    As for asking for help, if you can solve the flood of the Yellow River, you will be used to ask for help. Merton turned his lips secretly.


    "The eldest grandson loved me. The boy has been living in the north. He doesn''t even dare to go into the water. How can there be a way to control the water." Merton quickly shook his head and said.


    Suddenly, there was a sneer on the corner of Chang sun Wuji''s mouth. The Mexican family has been in the limelight recently. It can be said that it has overwhelmed the young generation in Chang''an city. Even Chang sun Chong, the best successor of Chang sun''s family, was defeated by him. Now he honestly stays in Zongzheng temple with mixed qualifications, but the Mexican family has no official rank, but can stir up the situation in the world.


    "Mohism doesn''t have it. I don''t know if there is a good recipe for water control in the far western country. But I heard that the pyramid country also has a river comparable to the suffering of the Yellow River. I don''t know if there is a good recipe for water control in its country." Chang sun Wuji suddenly said.


    Merton suddenly looked up at the eldest sun Wuji in surprise. He didn''t expect that his butterfly effect had played such a great role. Even the ministers of the central court who thought that heaven was superior and had eyes higher than the top began to pay attention to the barbarian country in their mouth thousands of miles away.


    In fact, Merton didn''t know that since the grand meeting of the western regions and the recognition of Socrates'' knowledge by the Tang Dynasty, the people of the Tang Dynasty suddenly realized that there were so many good things in the extreme western country. It can be said that the rise of Mohism was inseparable from the knowledge of foreign countries.


    In addition, the governance of the Yellow River is a great credit. If we can get methods from the Far West, wouldn''t we take this great credit for ourselves,


    So just when there were signs of the Yellow River flood, sun Wuji had sent people to invite Hu merchants from various countries, and naturally explored the Nile comparable to the Yellow River flood.


    "Yes, stones from other mountains can attack jade. Maybe the uniqueness of the state in the Far West is not necessarily." Duan Lun said eagerly. Now he is in a hurry to seek medical treatment. As long as there is a possible way, he doesn''t want to miss it.


    Merton immediately shook his head and said, "what the eldest grandson said is the Nile of the pyramid country. This river is also the mother river of the pyramid country. Its length is more than the Yellow River, and its harm is greater than the Yellow River. However, as far as I know, even the people of the pyramid country have no way."


    The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were immediately disappointed. The flood was indeed a stubborn disease, and there was nothing they could do anywhere.


    Changsun Wuji was cold in his heart. Of course, he knew that there was no way in the extreme western country. If there was a way, he would have taken this towering credit as his own, and it would be his turn to show the Mexican family,


    The reason why he asked Merton to speak was to personally test Merton to see what was special about the whole ink family that beat his son.


    "But..." Merton''s words suddenly looked at Merton.


    "However, Wei Chen believes that measures should be taken to control floods according to local conditions. The geographical and hydrological environment of various countries is different, and the causes of floods are also different. The landforms of extreme western countries are very different from those of Datang. Even if the Nile has water control methods, I''m afraid it doesn''t apply to the Yellow River."


    As soon as the voice fell, the old man''s face was red. He only looked for shortcuts, but he really ignored it.


    "Adjust measures to local conditions!"


    Man Chao Wen Wu nodded slowly.


    "But..." Merton said again.


    Li Shimin turned black and scolded, "if you have anything to say, what do you pretend to be young and mature at a young age?"


    Suddenly, the man Dynasty snickered at Wen Wu, and the originally depressed atmosphere was immediately relieved. Cheng Yaojin, an old rogue, kept winking at Merton.


    Morton shrunk his head, showed a shy young man''s smile and said, "it''s an unchangeable thing in the world that it''s going to rain and my mother wants to get married. However, Wei Chen found that the Yangtze River with more rain is also a river in the Tang Dynasty. Why there are few floods in the Yangtze River? If we can find the reason through comparison, maybe we can find the reason for controlling the flood of the Yellow River."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking a little. He secretly thought that the precipitation in the Yangtze River Basin is indeed several times that of the Yellow River. However, the flood of the Yangtze River is rare for many years. If we can find the reason and apply the medicine to the case, it may be a feasible solution.


    "Come on, get on the map," Li Shimin said without hesitation. Immediately, two one Zhang long river basins of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River were set up in the Tai Chi hall.


    The man Dynasty''s civil and military immediately sighed in his heart that his majesty really trusted mojiazi. If any ordinary teenager had such treatment.


    Suddenly, the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty surrounded the two giant pictures. As an advocate, Merton took the initiative to squeeze in front.


    Seeing the manual hand-painted map that is very similar to the satellite positioning map of later generations, I can''t help sighing. When it comes to talents, Datang can be full of talents.


    "I wonder if you can see from these two maps what the Yellow River is less than the Yangtze River. Perhaps it is the less part that is the key to solving the flood problem." Merton pointed to the map and said.


    Duan Lun said without hesitation: "there are many fewer lakes and tributaries in the lower Yellow River compared with the Yangtze River Basin."


    Manchu ministers nodded one after another. After comparing the maps of the two sides, it was obvious that there were large tributaries such as Han River and Gan River in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, as well as two super large lakes, Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake, while there were only two small tributaries in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, but there were no lakes.


    Merton nodded and said, "what Lord Duan said is very true. The boy thinks that the lack of lakes and tributaries is probably one of the reasons why the Yellow River has been plagued year after year.


    Wang Yushi snorted coldly: "Lord mohou is still young and ignorant. These lakes and rivers inject water into the river all year round, which will only increase the water volume in the river. Is the lack of lakes and tributaries the reason for flooding?"


    For a moment, many literary ministers subconsciously nodded. This is indeed the truth. If these tributaries and lakes were not poured into the river, the river would rise sharply.


    Merton suddenly sneered. These civil servants were above the top and read only the books of sages. How many people could really understand hydrology.

 Chapter 280

    "Mencius once said: one fades and the other fades. The same is true for rivers and lakes. In the dry season, it is indeed the water from lakes and tributaries that flows into rivers. In summer, when the river rises sharply, it will pour back into lakes to regulate river flow and control floods. I''m afraid this is the reason why there are few floods on the Yangtze River, except for the super heavy rain once in a few hundred years, which has the characteristics of Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake The Yangtze River will be free of water, "Merton said in a breath.


    Li Shimin suddenly said, "in this way, the reason why the Yellow River generates water is the lack of Lake regulation in the lower reaches. Once the Yellow River has too much water and nowhere to bloom, this is the reason for the flood."


    Merton nodded, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Li Shimin suddenly filled his mouth with bitterness. He would rather not be so wise than so desperate. The riverbed of the Yellow River is too high to form a lake.


    The Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty also wanted to understand this, and he couldn''t help feeling dejected.


    Merton looked at Wang Yushi and said with regret: "we study the books of saints and sages hard to get the supreme truth of life from the books of saints and sages, but we don''t know that in addition to these life philosophies, there is such a great truth that water flows to the lower place in heaven and earth."


    Wang Yushi immediately choked and blushed. He even confused the simple truth. He said, "the terrain of the Yellow River is too high to have a lake. You''re talking nonsense."


    Merton glanced at him, snorted coldly, ignored him directly, arched his hands to Li Shimin and said, "when the water is full, it will overflow, and when the moon is full, no one can change it. Weichen can be sure that as long as the rainstorm keeps going, the Yellow River will be flooded."


    Merton remembered clearly in the history books that in September, there were floods in Henan and Shandong,


    Man Chao''s civil and military skills suddenly stagnated, and his breathing was suddenly short. He couldn''t help looking at the heavy rain outside the window in despair. The rain didn''t seem to stop.


    "In this case, we can only wait for the disaster to happen," Duan Lun said in despair.


    "It''s just suffering the people of Henan Province." Li Shimin closed his eyes painfully.


    "There''s no way?" Cheng Yaojin asked.


    "There''s no way, but..." before Merton''s voice fell, he immediately realized that the murderous spirit was pressing, and his back was cold. He hurriedly said: "since we can''t change the fact that there will be a flood, we can change the location of the flood."


    "Change the location? You mean to take the initiative to break the dike!" changsun Wuji was surprised and pointed at Merton with a heartache on his face.


    The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were also in an uproar. Looking at Merton unbelievably, he took the initiative to break the embankment of the Yellow River. Even the most heinous people dare not do such a crazy thing.


    In history, several people broke the banks of the Yellow River, but none of them was recorded in historical books and left a bad reputation for thousands of years. No one thought that this method came from the mouth of Mozi.


    "The Buddha once said: killing one person and saving a hundred people is for the Buddha. Mozi is worthy of concurrently cultivating a hundred schools. Do you want to become a Buddha?" Wang Yushi said sarcastically, but his heart was ecstatic. Mozi! Mojiazi, you finally made a fatal mistake.


    Even if Mo Jiazi saved countless people, as long as he sacrificed one person, it will be the biggest stain in his life.


    "It''s still evil to kill one person to save a thousand people! Every Datang is my people, and I won''t take his life for no reason." Li Shimin said proudly. He once had a trace of emotion, but he was soon suppressed by reason.


    "Your Majesty is holy!" all the ministers immediately shouted in unison.


    "Your Majesty, Merton is still young and has no choice. Please forgive him." Qin Qiong said anxiously.


    "Morton, quickly admit your mistake to your majesty." Cheng Yaojin also said to help.


    Merton looked at a group of courtiers and said helplessly: "Wei Chen means that although there are no lakes on both sides of the Yellow River, there are also many low-lying areas. Your majesty can ban this area as a flood discharge area and prohibit people from living. Once the summer flood season comes, the Yellow River soars and is in danger of breaking the embankment, you will decide to open this section of the Yellow River embankment to drain the flood to the flood discharge area banned by your majesty. In this way, you can ensure the large scale of the Yellow River The embankment will not cause casualties to the people. Isn''t it the best of both worlds? "


    "Flood discharge area?"


    Suddenly everyone was stunned. In this way, the flood discharge area really played the role of a lake temporarily.


    "Wonderful! This is really a wonderful method." Duan Lun, the Minister of industry, said excitedly.


    "Duan Aiqing, is this really feasible?" Li Shimin asked hurriedly.


    "Your Majesty, this is absolutely feasible. Your majesty, please see, there are many low-lying places on both sides of the Yellow River. If the flood season comes and the Yellow River is in danger of breaking its banks, you can lead the water of the Yellow River here. After the water level of the Yellow River is safe, plug the breach. In this way, there are several lakes on the Yellow River, just like the Yangtze River, to adjust the water level, and the disaster of flood in the Yellow River is certain However, it can be reduced to the lowest, "Duan Lun said excitedly.


    The man Dynasty''s civil and military forces were in an uproar. This principle is very simple, just like the water in the tank will overflow when it is full. Then take a basin and bring out a basin of water. In this way, you can continue to inject water into the tank.


    "It''s so simple!" many courtiers muttered to themselves. The truth will be broken as soon as they poke it. However, no one has thought of it since ancient times.


    All the officials present at the court looked at the beautiful young man with complex eyes. A little young man even solved the problem that had been trapped in China for thousands of years.


    "I said that if the Mohists advocate both love and love, how can they do the innocent sacrifice of others." Cheng Yaojin laughed and looked at Merton more cordial than his own children.


    "Mohism!"


    Many people sighed that the Mohist way of doing things was really different. The Yangtze River and the Yellow River are familiar to Chinese people, but no one has ever connected them, and never thought that the secret to solving the Yellow River flood is on the Yangtze River.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath. Without hesitation, he immediately ordered: "hurry up eight hundred miles immediately and send a message to Henan road. Immediately take the Qucun village on the Bank of the Yellow River as the starting point and move all the people hundreds of miles around to a high place. Once the people are transferred, they will burst the dike to discharge the flood."


    "Yes!"


    Immediately, a palace guard hurried away.


    Although there was a solution, I didn''t know whether it would be in time. All officials had to pray secretly that the Yellow River levee would be strong.


    "What about the people in the flood discharge area? They have lost their homes and are displaced!" Wang Yushi suddenly asked.


    Changsun Wuji immediately scolded his pig teammates. In the face of such a severe flood, what is the loss of this part of farmland property?


    Merton said without hesitation. Avenue: "The people in the flood discharge area must be relocated in the shortest time. In the future, all flood discharge areas cannot be occupied, which requires the local government to resettle people in this area. However, after the flood, farmland can be developed. I believe that after the flood, the land will be more fertile, but when the flood season comes, all flood discharge areas must be emptied for emergency needs."

 Chapter 281

    "Dai Aiqing, immediately prepare money and food for the relief of the people in the flood discharge area!" Li Shimin looked at Shang shudai Zhou, the Ministry of the people, and said with a slight dignified meal: "prepare more to prevent the worst from happening."


    The ministers were shocked. Of course, they knew what the worst thing was.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty." Dai Zhou nodded.


    The biggest harvest of the western region event was not Merton, but the Minister of civil affairs, Dai Zhou. In a few days, Dai Zhou received a soft hand in collecting taxes. Moreover, according to Merton''s tax system concept, he levied heavy taxes on some luxury goods and silk transported to the western region. Unexpectedly, he did not receive any resistance, even if the price nearly doubled, These Hu merchants paid in full without hesitation.


    Having a way to tide over the difficulties for the time being, the atmosphere of the whole court was suddenly light, and even Li Shimin was relieved.


    "Nephew Mo Xian didn''t live up to my expectations. Indeed, he has a way to solve the flood problem." he looked very relieved, as if Merton could find a way to solve the flood problem thanks to his advice.


    "Chang sun Yin, I heard you were going to ask for merit for Merton! Did you forget it so soon?" Cheng Yaojin ran aside. In the whole court, as long as he dares to call Chang sun Wuji so.


    "Mr. Cheng, when did I forget that? It''s just that those who can do more work. Nephew Mo Xianji has such talent to learn. How about if we don''t solve the problem of desertification control at the same time? I''ll ask for meritorious service for nephew Mo Xianji together." Sun Wuji said.


    control sand! Suddenly everyone was shocked.


    It is a well-known saying that desertification must be controlled before the Yellow River. Even if there is a flood discharge area, it can solve the temporary worry, which is also a temporary solution, but not the root cause. With the continuous accumulation of sediment in the Yellow River, in the end, even if there is a flood discharge area, I''m afraid it will discharge flood every year.


    Thinking of this, everyone here couldn''t help beating a cold cicada and couldn''t help focusing on mojiazi again. Although it was a shame for the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty to put their hope on a young man, it was a matter of great concern after all, and they didn''t care about face at this time.


    "Mo boy, if you have an idea, say it. As long as you''re right, changsun Wuji won''t ask for merit, and I''ll ask for merit myself." Cheng Yaojin bared his teeth and said that this matter is very important. If Merton can solve it, it must be a great merit. Of course, he didn''t forget to stab changsun Wuji.


    "Old man Cheng, you......" the eldest sun Wuji was so angry that he clenched his teeth!


    "Well, don''t make any more noise!" Li Shimin angrily said. Cheng Yaojin and eldest sun Wuji stared at each other, and then shut up.


    "Merton, if you have any attention, just say it. Even if you say it wrong, no one here blames you." Li Shimin encouraged.


    Merton nodded, looked around and said, "you adults know that my Mohist school is rising again with the way of arithmetic. Now I''ll calculate an account for you with arithmetic."


    "As I know, the sediment of the Yellow River accumulates year after year, and the riverbed at the lower reaches has been exposed to the ground. If the sediment of the Yellow River accumulates at least one finger of high sediment at the bottom of the river every five years, then the riverbed will be raised by two fingers in ten years, 20 fingers in one hundred years, and 200 fingers, or six feet in one thousand years."


    Merton did not exaggerate, but somewhat narrowed. In later generations, the riverbed of the Yellow River was generally three to five meters, and in later generations, it was even more serious, up to ten meters, which was called the suspended river.


    "In other words, I''m afraid the Yellow River will flow over our heads in the future," Merton said slowly, pointing to his head.


    Suddenly, all the ministers present were cold. I''m afraid that the Yellow River would be more rebellious and cause greater harm. Moreover, strengthening hetina is also a towering project because of the rise of the river every year.


    "Some people will think, don''t we still have a flood discharge area?" Merton asked. "However, the river water in the flood discharge area can not flow out at all and can only deposit, so the degree of sediment deposition in the flood discharge area will be more serious. It doesn''t matter if it is discharged twice at a time. If it is discharged ten times a hundred times, I''m afraid the sediment of the Yellow River will level the flood discharge area. I''m afraid the Yellow River will no longer be able to restrain at that time and cause more disaster."


    Merton once said that anyone in the world can deceive you, but he can''t learn arithmetic. Merton used these cold numbers to tell them a harsh fact.


    The ministers present were not proficient in mathematics, but they could calculate the account clearly by breaking their fingers. For a moment, everyone couldn''t help sweating. The good news from the flood discharge area was swept away. Previously, they only knew that the problem of the Yellow River was very serious, but they didn''t expect the situation to be so severe,


    Merton said heavily: "Of course, some people will say that this will only happen in a few hundred years or thousands of years, but if we do not control the Yellow River at the moment, in a few hundred years or thousands of years, what will be left to our children and grandchildren will be a hanging river flowing overhead like a sharp sword. At that time, how will our children and grandchildren treat us?"


    All the courtiers suddenly looked unnatural and their eyes flickered.


    "Mojiazi, if anyone says he won''t govern the Yellow River, tell him if you have any idea." even Cheng Yaojin, who is so careless, is made cold in his back and can''t help but urge him.


    "In fact, the Mohist school has no method to control water and sand, but the boy has a vague idea after getting the knowledge of Socrates." Merton said.


    "Socrates?" all the officials were stunned. They had read the knowledge of Socrates in the ink magazine, but they had never seen any method to control water and sand.


    "The most practical way for Socrates to pursue knowledge is endless questioning. Let''s ask the first question, where does the sediment of the Yellow River come from?" Merton said slowly.


    Everyone looked at each other. It was not that the problem was difficult, but that it was too simple.


    "Of course, the sediment of the Yellow River is brought from the water." Wang Yushi said angrily. There is sediment in the water, which is the characteristic of every river.


    "Then where does the water with sediment come from? Is the Yellow River so turbid from its source?" Merton continued.


    Wang Yushi immediately concluded that he didn''t know this problem. He didn''t know anything except Confucian classics.


    Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said, "I went north to defeat Turks a few years ago. I passed Jiuyuan county and once stationed by the Yellow River. The water of the Yellow River there is still very clear."


    Merton nodded: "the water of the Yellow River is still very clear in Jiuyuan County, but it becomes unusually turbid in Luoyang. So..."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, he couldn''t help breathing heavily in the Tai Chi hall.


    "The problem lies under our eyelids!" Li Shimin said with an iron blue face. They spent a huge price on harnessing the Yellow River in the lower reaches, but they didn''t expect that the biggest source was Guanzhong, but they didn''t find it at all.


    "It''s dark under the lamp!" Qin Qiong sighed.

 Chapter 282

    Merton nodded and asked again, "almost all rivers in Guanzhong are muddy! But which river is the most serious? The more serious it is, the more problems can be exposed."


    "Weihe River!"


    Duan Lun said hoarsely.


    This time, all the courtiers were silent. This time, it was not dark under the light, but blind. The Weihe river flowed from the edge of Chang''an city every day. It was their most familiar river. Everyone knew how turbid the water of the Weihe River was, but they never saw it.


    "When I entered the Tai Chi hall for the first time, when I saw that the officials and generals were divided into one side, a word immediately appeared in my mind, which was clear." Merton sighed.


    "Clear? What''s the meaning of this?" Cheng Yaojin asked, but he had heard the word for the first time.


    Merton said: "Jinghe River is a tributary of Weihe River. However, the water of Jinghe River is extremely clear, and the water of Weihe River is very turbid. Therefore, at the intersection of Jinghe River and Weihe River, there is a wonder. The river water is half turbid and half clear, which lasts for several miles."


    The courtiers could not help blushing. This "spectacle" is very ironic.


    "So, the sediment of Weihe River flows from other tributaries above Jinghe River," Cheng Yaojin thought.


    Merton nodded: "then the question is, why is there so much sediment in the upper reaches of the Weihe River? If the sediment problem of the Weihe River can be solved, the problems of other rivers will be solved."


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "take the map of Guanzhong."


    A huge map of Guanzhong is fully unfolded in Taiji hall. Li Shimin looks at the watershed map of Weihe River with a gloomy face.


    "Black water, Ba water, lacquer water, thousand water..." Li Shimin looked more and more ugly. The whole area of Weihe River was too large.


    "According to this analysis, the sediment source of the Yellow River is in this area." Li Shimin stretched out his hand and roughly drew the area of the later Loess Plateau.


    All the courtiers nodded involuntarily, suddenly their faces coagulated, and their eyes involuntarily floated to several ministers at the forefront of the court, especially the eldest sun Wuji.


    Guanzhong, especially the Loess Plateau, is the sphere of influence of Guanlong group, and changsun Wuji is the representative of Guanlong group in the dynasty.


    Merton still nodded imperceptibly and said, "yes, now we need to understand why the soil here is lost so seriously."


    This time, everyone didn''t answer. Qin Qiong wanted to dissuade Merton, but she was stopped by Cheng Yaojin. She opened her bow without turning back. Now that she has reached this point, there is nothing to say. She retreated at this time, which makes the emperor unhappy.


    Duan Lun took a look at his eldest son Wuji and said, "this place is full of loess. The soil is loose. Once it meets rain, it will wash away the soil."


    Merton solemnly nodded and saw two dense pots of potted plants outside the Tai Chi hall. He had an idea and said, "this phenomenon is called soil erosion by the Mohists. If you want to retain sediment, you must understand how soil erosion is formed. If we don''t do an experiment."


    "Test?"


    People are familiar with this word. The Mohist experimental field is famous in Chang''an city.


    Merton went to the potted plant, looked at the huge potted plant and moved it hard, but the potted plant didn''t move. At present, he was embarrassed and said to Xi Junmai, "brother Xi, please do me a favor and move the potted plant on the right to the outside in the rain."


    When Xi Jun bought a meal, he had a headache one by one. You were too brave to move things in the Tai Chi hall. You couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin.


    "Move!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    Xi Jun bought the order and came forward with a little force. Hua effortlessly moved the potted plants to the rain outside.


    "Brother Xi, break this basin again and move it out in the rain."


    Xi Jun took a swipe when he bought the cheek. Merton didn''t go to court several times. Naturally, he didn''t know that these two plates of potted plants were Li Shimin''s favorites, and Merton was bold enough to destroy them.


    "Broken! If we can solve the problem of the Yellow River, a potted plant is not enough." Li Shimin endured heartache and waved his hand.


    Xi Jun took orders when he bought it. With a click of his teeth, he broke the potted plants and moved them to the rain.


    It rained heavily outside the Tai Chi hall. Soon, the bottom basin of the potted plants was covered with water. Merton asked Xi Junmai to move it back to the hall.


    "Your Majesty, look!" Merton pointed to the rain channel in two potted plants.


    Li Shimin looked at his beloved potted plant being ruined by Merton. He couldn''t help but look blue and red. It took a long time to calm down.


    Fortunately, Li Shimin was Mingjun. He restrained his anger and came to the potted plant. He saw the intact potted plant. The rain under the bottom basin was very clear. The broken basin was not covered by leaves. The rain directly washed the soil, and the whole basin was full of muddy muddy water.


    Merton said: "Wei Chen once looked up history and found that there were dense forests in Guanzhong during the pre-Qin period, but at that time, the Weihe River was extremely clear. Only because a large number of forests were cut down and reclaimed into land, so that the loess was directly exposed, this would cause soil loss, just like the broken pot plant in front of him."


    Many ministers nodded. In this way, it is indeed the reason for deforestation.


    Merton sighed: "In fact, what people don''t know is that not only the soil but also the fertility of the land will be lost along with the rain. In the long run, the fertility of the farmland will be lost, and the land in Guanzhong will become more and more barren. At that time, the grain production will be reduced, and the people''s living income will not be able to make ends meet. Then the people will reclaim more land in order to survive, and then the fertility of the land will be reduced Then washed away by the rain, it will be a vicious circle.


    Moreover, Wei Chen heard that the upper reaches of the Weihe River have been washed out with many deep gaps. If they are not treated, the upper reaches of the Weihe River will become thousands of gullies and fragmented year after year, just like cracked pottery. At that time, the once fertile pass will become a history. "


    Merton finished in one breath, and the whole Tai Chi hall was as silent as death.


    Guanzhong is the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that it is the dragon vein of the Tang Dynasty. If it comes to that time, I''m afraid the foundation of Guanzhong will be destroyed.


    Merton thought of the fragmented situation of the Loess Plateau in later generations, just like a heart knife. If he could alleviate the soil erosion of the Loess Plateau in this era, maybe everything would be in time.


    "So the people in Guanzhong open up wasteland and farm land is the ultimate reason for the formation of sediment in the Yellow River?" Li Shimin said bitterly.


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, but there is some truth. In fact, many human bitter fruits are planted by ourselves."

 Chapter 283

    "So the first step in harnessing the Yellow River is to prohibit further reclamation of farmland?" Li Shimin said.


    Suddenly, everyone suddenly felt that all parts of Guanlong were the foundation of Guanlong aristocratic family. If it was forbidden to reclaim farmland, wouldn''t it cut off the pace of Guanlong aristocratic family''s expansion.


    "Your Majesty, from my humble minister''s point of view, we can''t wait to govern the Yellow River. The harm of the Yellow River is imminent. If we turn a blind eye to it, I''m afraid we will be ashamed of future generations!" an official of the Kanto aristocratic family shouted loudly.


    The Guandong aristocratic family and the Guanlong aristocratic family have always been full of contradictions. The previous gratitude and resentment are not mentioned, but the Guandong aristocratic family is the most harmful to the Yellow River. Every flood of the Yellow River will hurt the muscles and bones of the Guandong aristocratic family.


    But now that the culprit has been found, it is their sworn enemy Guanlong aristocratic family. How can they restrain themselves? For a moment, the officials of Guandong aristocratic family were angry.


    The eldest sun Wuji hurried out and said, "Your Majesty, it is natural for farmers to dig food from the soil. Moreover, there are many people in Guanlong and the population is growing very fast. If reclamation is prohibited, I''m afraid there will be a lot of people and less land in Guanzhong over time. I''m afraid there will be a lot of trouble if I can''t make ends meet!"


    Li Shimin was immediately helpless. On the one hand, it was the Guandong aristocratic family, which was deeply hurt by the Yellow River, and on the other hand, it was the Guanlong aristocratic family, a staunch supporter of the Tang Dynasty. The forces of both sides were extremely huge, and it was difficult for him to choose.


    Merton quickly cleared the siege for Li Shimin and said: "I inform your majesty that the people need fields. It will not work if they don''t open up wasteland, but at least we should develop wasteland in an orderly and reasonable way. Of course, we can reclaim the flat places in Guanlong, but some steep slopes should be prohibited from reclamation, and the vegetation must be restored if they have been reclaimed."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. This is indeed a problem that can''t wait at present. Even sun Wuji has no way to refute it. After all, the harm of the Yellow River is too great.


    Merton went on: "Lao Tzu once said: the way of heaven is to make up for the surplus. It will naturally damage the way of heaven if people reclaim farmland and destroy vegetation. Therefore, every additional mu of wasteland in the future must be compensated by planting trees of the same area. Moreover, trees, forests and grass must be widely planted in Guanlong, and all exposed land must be restored to vegetation as much as possible In recent years, it can not only prevent soil erosion, but also allow people to graze to compensate for losses. "


    "In this way, I''m afraid it''s a vast project, which can''t be completed in a short time." Cheng Yaojin murmured.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "if it doesn''t work in ten years, it will be a hundred years or a thousand years. We can''t let future generations poke our spine."


    From the heart, Li Shimin agrees with Merton''s words. After all, the damage of the Yellow River is too serious. A flood is not only a bone breaking injury to the Kanto family, but also the whole Tang Dynasty.


    "Your Majesty is holy!" Wen and Wu of the Manchu Dynasty immediately shouted in unison.


    "Chang sun Aiqing, you are fully responsible for the governance of the Yellow River." Li Shimin looked at Chang sun Wuji, led by Li Shimin.


    All of a sudden, everyone turned their attention to changsun Wuji and had a good recipe for governing the Yellow River. As long as it was done according to Merton''s method, it must be a great achievement.


    However, there was no trace of envy among the people present. If they wanted to govern the Yellow River, the first thing they had to face was the counterattack of the Guanlong family, and the eldest sun Wuji happened to be the leader of the Guanlong family, which had to make all the ministers think about Li Shimin''s intention.


    "Yes!"


    Eldest sun Wuji immediately lowered his head bitterly. After this incident, the Guanlong family was shackled. Even if he personally implemented the governance method, it was difficult. Moreover, Li Shimin was dissatisfied with the increasingly powerful Guanlong family for a long time. This time, he forced him to make a choice! He wanted to pinch the Mexican family, but he didn''t expect to move a stone and hit his own foot.


    "Nephew Mo has always been intelligent, and he has integrated Chinese and foreign knowledge. As expected, he is extraordinary. The disaster of the Yellow River, which has plagued China for thousands of years, can also be broken." Sun Wuji sighed.


    Merton immediately showed a shy smile and said, "boy, where do you know the method of water control? It''s just a curiosity to know some arithmetic and find out the bottom. If it wasn''t for the guidance of Lord changsun, where would the boy have a chance to solve this problem?"


    "Little catfish!" the eldest sun Wuji immediately scolded in his heart. Unexpectedly, the ink family was so slippery.


    "Old fox! You want to kill me!" Merton scolded in his heart.


    One is a crafty old fox and the other is a slippery little catfish. However, even if the old fox is not careful, he sometimes misses.


    "Although I''m trusted by the emperor, I don''t know anything about water control. I''m afraid I''ll bear your Majesty''s heavy responsibility. If you have a good prescription, you might as well say it together." knowing that I can''t shirk this task, eldest sun Wuji simply said.


    Merton nodded and pointed to the bottom pots of the two potted plants in the Tai Chi hall. In a short period of time, the muddy water in the broken one had been clarified a lot,


    "The water is light and the soil is heavy. Even the turbid water will be clarified. Lord Chang sun can build earth dams between various gullies and retain the water for a short time. During this time, most of the soil can be precipitated. In this way, the clear water in the upper layer will flow away slowly and the muddy water in the lower layer will continue to clarify. In this way, the soil can be retained and the previously scoured gullies can be slowly silted , it can achieve miraculous results in a short time. "Merton explained that governing the Yellow River is a public event for thousands of years, and he will not hide his secrets.


    Changsun Wuji couldn''t help but rejoice in his heart. First, he had to face the resistance of Guanlong aristocratic family to govern the Yellow River, and second, he was afraid of no effect in a short time, lest he should be criticized.


    However, the construction of earth dams is not laborious. According to this method, miraculous effects can be achieved in a short time.


    In the face of such great achievements in the governance of the Yellow River, the conflicts before changsun Wuji immediately disappeared, and I couldn''t help sighing. Compared with changsun Chong, the Mohist son was indeed far better than him.


    The courtiers also repeatedly lamented that the Mohist family was indeed worthy of its reputation. All the principles he used were familiar to everyone, even an ordinary phenomenon. He also studied a hundred schools and was proficient in both China and the West. The ministers present couldn''t help but sigh that the Mohist family was able to integrate and apply the theories of various schools and solve the problems that troubled countless people.


    Although they still think Confucianism is orthodox, they also realize that there is still a way to learn by cultivating a hundred schools of thought.


    "Changsunyin, your old boy deserves so much credit. Should you show it?" Cheng Yaojin''s sentence immediately destroyed the atmosphere of the whole hall.


    "Old man Cheng, when did I say I wouldn''t ask for merit for nephew Mo Xian?"


    Chang sun Wuji blushed angrily. After Cheng Yaojin said this, Chang sun Wuji was sure to accept the favor of Mohist Zi. Everyone knew that the idea of governing the Yellow River was the Mohist Zi, and the greatest credit fell on Chang sun Wuji''s head. If Chang sun Wuji targeted Merton again, he would certainly be stabbed in the spine.

 Chapter 284

    "Well, don''t argue any more. Meritorious deeds will be rewarded. I''m not so stupid." Li Shimin shouted. Changsun Wuji is not only his brother-in-law, but also his right-hand man. Naturally, he will not embarrass changsun Wuji.


    "Merton, if you want anything, I''ll certainly agree." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    All the courtiers immediately envied Li Shimin. As expected, Li Shimin had a close relationship with Mozi. If others would give him a choice.


    Merton smiled shyly and said, "really anything?"


    Li Shimin suddenly felt that Merton knew he was going to produce a moth at a glance, but he had said it in public, so it was not easy to change his mouth.


    "That''s natural!" Li Shimin said very unnaturally.


    The Manchu cultural relics were also curious. I didn''t know what conditions the mojiazi would put forward. Merton looked hopeful and said, "can Weichen no longer go to the Imperial College?"


    "Ah!"


    The whole courtier suddenly exclaimed. No one thought that the Mexican family would make such a request. Someone else had already begged for high officials and high salaries, and the Mexican family thought how not to go to school.


    "Mo boy, this is what you want." Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton strangely, as if he were a fool.


    Merton asked innocently with a simple face, "is there any greater reward for a teenager than not going to school?"


    "Er!"


    At the same time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty lost their voice and couldn''t help looking at each other. However, what Merton said is indeed somewhat reasonable. In fact, it''s not only the MOH family, but also their own children. It''s a pain on their face every day when they enter school. It''s like a festival on the day of ten days off.


    "Of course, I know your Majesty''s painstaking efforts. I''m not a playful minister, but I''m a child of the Mohist school, majoring in Mohism, and I''m mainly familiar with the knowledge of a hundred schools, not proficient. Now the Imperial College has been studying for nearly a year, and I''m also involved in the six schools of the Imperial College. Naturally, it''s no longer suitable to continue to study in the Imperial College," Merton explained.


    In fact, the most important reason is that Merton has been a man for two generations. He has studied too much. When he goes to the Imperial College, he feels very fresh at the beginning. It''s even more painful to think of three years.


    Li Shimin was immediately covered with black lines. He knew that Mohist was going to produce a moth. He didn''t expect it to be so. In fact, he put Mohist in the Imperial College. First, he heard that Mohist died early and that Merton was not disciplined. Second, he tested Merton''s catfish effect, which was popular in Chang''an city. It was naturally beyond Li Shimin''s expectation to have such a big surprise.


    "Don''t make progress!" Li Shimin snorted angrily.


    "I hope your majesty can do it." Merton whispered with a low eyebrow.


    "Since I promised to let you ask, I will not go back. I can authorize you to graduate from the Imperial College at the end of this year. If you pass, I will allow you to graduate early. If you fail, don''t blame anyone." Li Shimin certainly doesn''t want to let go of the Mo family so easily. He has made so many moths under his own eyes, If you let it fly, you may break the sky!


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Merton said weakly.


    "Scattered dynasty!"


    Li Shimin waved his big sleeve and left.


    All the courtiers breathed a sigh of relief. The Yellow River, which had plagued China for thousands of years, had a solution. Naturally, they were relieved. When they left the dynasty, they passed by Merton and couldn''t help looking at the weak young man deeply. At a young age, they even solved the drought, locust and flood in the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that there was no one before or after.


    "Hahaha, Mo boy really didn''t disappoint me." Cheng Yaojin laughed and came to Merton''s side, slapped Merton heavily on his shoulder, and immediately showed his teeth.


    He still had to shoot again, but Qin Qiong held him up. Qin Qiong pushed his hand away unhappily: "Merton is young and weak. How can he withstand your strength."


    Qin Qiong was very satisfied with Merton''s performance. Not only did he solve the flood of the Yellow River, but also Merton''s promise to Li Shimin. There was no lion''s big mouth, and the handling was perfect.


    Otherwise, Merton made great achievements at a young age, so he wantonly granted rewards. Won''t there be no rewards in the future.


    Cheng Yaojin said carelessly, "when you are young and frivolous, you can learn to be young and mature. However, you can fight with the elder sun Yin people without losing. You will become a great weapon in the future. Just be careful of this old boy and give you a dirty hand."


    Cheng Yaojin didn''t shy away from anyone at this time. His eldest son Wuji heard it clearly. He couldn''t help humming angrily: "old Cheng, don''t talk nonsense. I''m not a man. I don''t know the same thing as a younger generation."


    "Thank you, Mr. Chang sun. Please forgive me if you offend me." of course, Merton knew Cheng Yaojin''s intention to run against Mr. Chang sun Wuji and couldn''t help climbing up the pole.


    Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong can''t help nodding. Merton is worthy of being called a small catfish. As expected, he is very slippery.


    "Nephew Mo is worried too much. It''s a great credit to govern the Yellow River. Lord changsun will naturally accept your feelings in your way, and won''t offend him." Qin Qiong helped him and directly hammered the fact that the changsun family owes Merton human feelings.


    The eldest sun Wuji snorted and said, "I really took advantage of this, but nephew Mo Xian''s idea is not afraid to blame those old guys in Guanlong?"


    It can be imagined that after the Yellow River control project began, the whole Guanlong aristocratic family must be greatly restricted. Naturally, they will bear a grudge against the MOH family of the originator.


    Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong suddenly changed their faces and frowned. The Guanlong aristocratic family was the most powerful force in the Tang Dynasty. The twelve generals of the Bazhu state created four dynasties: the Western Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. They were powerful. I''m afraid even Li Shimin would have to give in.


    This is also the biggest reason why Li Shimin bypassed the Ministry of work and directly appointed Chang sun Wuji to govern the Yellow River. If Duan Lun is allowed to implement it himself, I''m afraid the decree will not come out of Chang''an city.


    However, to the disappointment of the eldest sun Wuji, Merton did not have the slightest fear on his face, but smiled faintly: "The Guanlong aristocratic family can inherit for a hundred years. Naturally, it is not a short-sighted generation. Why can''t you see Mo''s move? Although it limits the hands and feet of the Guanlong aristocratic family, it saves the foundation of the Guanlong aristocratic family. Once the soil erosion around Guanlong intensifies and Guanzhong is dilapidated, I''m afraid it will be the day of the decline of the Guanlong aristocratic family."


    Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin could not help nodding when they heard the speech. This is indeed the truth. Besides, which of Merton''s drought resistance method and locust killing method is not meritorious to the Guanlong family.


    The eldest sun Wuji smiled and said faintly, "unfortunately, many people in this world don''t have that long vision. Most of them are short-sighted."


    Morton heard the speech and said confidently, "that''s easy to do. Since it''s the boy''s reason that the Guanlong family can''t continue to reclaim the land, and the boy has a way to improve the land output in Guanzhong, even higher than the income from reclaiming the land."


    "Is that true?" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise.


    "As soon as the rain stops, the autumn harvest is coming, and the Mohist experimental field can be harvested soon. Then we can know," Morton said confidently.


    Changsun Wuji was shocked. If the Mohist experimental field could really increase the output, wouldn''t the Mohist son who mastered the method of increasing the output be a guest of Guanlong aristocratic family.


    In fact, Merton thinks more. Once the Yellow River governance begins, there will be more people and less land in Guanlong. At that time, the surplus population will naturally flock to industry and commerce. I''m afraid it will be the time for the great development of Mohism.

 Chapter 285

    Canal Village, Henan road.


    At the command of Zhou Hongde from Luoyang, a large number of people began to move to the highlands on a large scale under the command of the local Lizheng.


    In the early Tang Dynasty, the government''s control over the countryside was also very powerful, and the local people lived in low-lying places. They were also plagued by floods all year round.


    Once they heard that the flood was coming, they immediately began to obey the command and began to transfer. Rows of people lined up in long lines, dragging their families to avoid the flood.


    But there are always some people who don''t want to give up their hard-earned family wealth. An old woman in Qucun couldn''t help crying when she looked at her hundreds of chickens.


    "If I don''t go, even if I die, I will die here." the old woman said stubbornly.


    She bought it from the children of Mohism when the Spring Festival came. She worked hard for more than half a year to raise it. It can be said that she devoted all her efforts.


    The poor old woman has never owned hundreds of chickens and such a huge wealth. She can''t give up such a huge wealth when she is poor and rich at first.


    "Mother, please. These chickens can be raised when they are gone. If there are no people, everything will be over." the old woman''s son begged bitterly.


    However, despite his son''s persuasion, the old woman disagreed. His son came forward and dragged, even holding the door frame.


    Li Zheng came at the news and roared, "come on, carry Zhang away."


    The order given to them by Luoyang order is very urgent. The water of the Yellow River has already exceeded the warning line, and it is urgent to break the dike to discharge the flood.


    Immediately, several adults in Qucun and Zhang''s son carried Zhang away. Zhang cried and wailed as he looked back at his chickens.


    The old woman is the last one. Li Zheng and her party rushed five miles to a high slope, which is the place for their village to avoid floods all year round.


    On the high slope, I saw that many surrounding villages had gathered here. In fact, Zhang''s behavior of not giving up his home was not an example. There were cries everywhere on the whole high slope.


    "You don''t have to be sad. The imperial court will certainly come to the disaster relief. Your majesty is Renjun. Once the flood is over, you will rebuild your homes for you." the people are calming their emotions again and again for several miles, which makes the people a little stable and start to make an organized fire and cook and build a temporary shelter.


    On the Yellow River levee, Luoyang made Zhou Hongde look at the roaring Yellow River with a dignified face.


    "My Lord, I can''t wait any longer. Many of the Yellow River levees have sprung up. If the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard hadn''t blocked them with all their strength, I''m afraid they would have burst long ago."


    The martial master kept urging him. In his opinion, since the imperial court has made an order to flood diversion, if Zhou Hongde doesn''t divert the flood in time and cause the Yellow River to burst, I''m afraid it will be a great responsibility.


    "How long has it been since the order to inform the people of the transfer!" Zhou Hongde asked.


    "Sir, it''s been eight hours. It''s all delivered by fast horses. I believe these villages have received the news." the master replied.


    Zhou Hongde raised his hand several times and immediately put it down. Eight hours is really not enough.


    "Wait another half an hour. It''s time to burst the dike immediately." Zhou Hongde said painfully. Even if it is only half an hour, the chances of people moving will be greatly increased.


    Suddenly, everyone stared at the funnel quietly. At this time, every second is a test of life and death.


    As soon as the long half hour arrives.


    "Burst the dike!"


    At Zhou Hongde''s command, many young people suddenly began to burst the embankment.


    At this time, the Yellow River levee is already very fragile. The young man has just dug a hole. He saw that the surging water of the Yellow River will suddenly gush out, roaring like a trapped beast for a long time, and will soon tear the crevasse continuously.


    "Everyone retreat immediately!" Zhou Hongde shouted.


    In fact, without waiting for Zhou Hongde''s order, these young people had already dropped their tools and began to run back along the Yellow River embankment.


    However, with the continuous expansion of the Yellow River crevasse, the roaring water of the Yellow River gushed out along the crevasse, swallowing everything in front of it.


    However, no matter how fierce these monsters are, they also obediently rush towards the low-lying areas along the scheduled route.


    "The water level has dropped!"


    "Sir, the water level has dropped!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The master suddenly pointed to the Yellow River at his feet and said excitedly. Many young people also cheered.


    Zhou Hongde quickly looked down and saw that the water of the Yellow River had dropped significantly. He was relieved that the water level fell, which means that the danger of the Yellow River is decreasing.


    "Don''t take it lightly. Immediately send people to constantly explore the water level of each section of the Yellow River. At the same time, immediately organize people to search and rescue the flood discharge area and rescue some trapped people. Inform all counties to prepare for the resettlement of the victims and ensure the stability of the victims." Zhou Hongde ordered.


    This is just a dangerous situation. There are more troublesome aftermath work to be done in the flood discharge area.


    "Yes!" the master replied immediately.


    At the same time, a large number of people were divided into two, most of them began to search, rescue and resettle the victims in the flood discharge area, and a small number began to explore the upper and lower reaches of the Yellow River.


    It was not until three days later that the water level of the Yellow River, with Qucun as the center and a radius of 500 miles, fell to a safe level that Zhou Hongde really felt at ease.


    Not only that, even the water conditions in the flood discharge area have stabilized and are fixed in the planned flood discharge area. In addition to the financial losses, almost all the people have been transferred safely.


    "Go to Chang''an city to report the victory immediately, and say that the Henan road has lived up to its heavy trust and the flood of the Yellow River has passed." Zhou Hongde ordered.


    "Yes!" shiye said excitedly. This time he could safely survive the disaster of the Yellow River. Henan road must be a great achievement. It will greatly increase Zhou Hongde''s political achievements, and may be able to surpass suluosheng in Chang''an city.


    "The Yellow River is a great victory! The flood has receded!"


    When the Yamen who reported victory set out on a fast horse from Henan Road, they shouted everywhere and were jubilant in an instant.


    When the good news reached Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city suddenly became boiling, and all merchants and residents ran to the streets to cheer, just like the new year''s festival.


    Many people still remember that the last time Chang''an city celebrated like this was when the good news of Datang''s victory over Turks came a few years ago.


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin was overjoyed when he looked at the good news from Henan road. The method of flood discharge area was indeed effective. A great disaster was dissolved and invisible. The Yellow River flood was overcome by manpower for the first time in history.


    The harm of the Yellow River has a long history, which can be said to be the biggest pain in the hearts of every generation of Chinese people. However, this rebellious dragon finally has a way to be subdued.


    "All officials strike the morning for a day and enjoy with the people. I can''t help it tonight." Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    Chang''an city is the imperial capital. The curfew system is very strict. Except for major festivals such as new year''s Eve and Lantern Festival, the rest are subject to curfew.


    When the news of Jin Wu couldn''t help coming out tonight, the whole Chang''an city immediately aroused greater jubilation.

 Chapter 286

    Shengyefang.


    Shengye square in Chang''an city is close to the imperial palace. It is the residence of dignitaries in Chang''an city.


    Among the luxury houses covering an area of up to five mu in shengyefang, it is the residence of the yuan family of the famous Guanlong aristocratic family.


    Today''s yuan family is very grand and takes on a new look inside and outside. All the servants are constantly busy inside and outside, waiting for your guests to come.


    After a while, four wheeled carriages stopped at the gate of the yuan mansion, and distinguished guests came to the door. Some were well-dressed, some were not angry, obviously in a high position, and some were white haired and old, but they were hale and hearty.


    "Brother Dou!"


    "Brother Chai!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Every distinguished guest was personally welcomed in by the owner of the yuan family, which was obviously extremely respected.


    If the dignitaries of Chang''an City were here, they would be surprised. These are the places in Guanzhong, the leaders of Guanlong aristocratic family, and each one is powerful.


    In the yuan family''s living room, all the guests took their seats in order, not even a maid serving tea and pouring water, and all the servants were driven out of the hall.


    "Brother yuan, you''re calling for the discussion of Guan long this time. Do you exaggerate that it''s the critical moment for the life and death of Guan Long aristocratic family? This is a peaceful and prosperous age. What a big thing can you do." a middle-aged man in royal clothes said discontentedly. This man is the head of Chai family.


    The Guanlong meeting was the most solemn meeting of the Guanlong aristocratic family. It was held every time the Guanlong aristocratic family encountered a major choice. The last meeting was a rebellion by Li Yuan. The Guanlong aristocratic family was about standing in the team. Finally, with the support of the Chai family, the Guanlong aristocratic family made a decision to support Li Yuan, and the land of Guanlong almost fell into the hands of Li Tang, So as to lay a foundation for Li Yuan to unify the world.


    "Brother Chai doesn''t live in Chang''an City for a long time. Maybe he doesn''t know that the chaotang has changed recently. The Mo family, who is famous in Chang''an City, has directly presented the method of governing the Yellow River." the master of the yuan family said.


    "The method of harnessing the Yellow River is a good thing! It''s just cheap for those guys of Shandong aristocratic family." the Chai family master didn''t understand.


    "This is a good thing for the Shandong aristocratic family, but it may not be a good thing for the Guanlong aristocratic family." the master of the yuan family smiled bitterly.


    Soon, the yuan family leader told you everything about the imperial court. Soon, all the family leaders changed their colors.


    "So, the root of the Yellow River''s harm lies in the land where I pass Longmen." Dou''s master said angrily.


    "Mozi, a yellow haired child, dares to bully my Guanlong aristocratic family. He doesn''t know how to live or die." the Chai family Master said with a gloomy face.


    His greatest concern is to prohibit the reclamation of wasteland in the land of Guanlong, and those already reclaimed should be abandoned again. The development of Guanlong aristocratic family will be greatly limited.


    Although it is reasonable and orderly reclamation, the land really suitable for reclamation has already been reclaimed. It can be said that the newly reclaimed land is not suitable for reclamation.


    However, if the law governing the Yellow River is implemented, the Guanlong family must bear the brunt. Such a huge project is naturally the concern of the whole country. It can be said that it is impossible for the Guanlong family to obtain land expansion.


    The population of Guanlong aristocratic family is increasing day by day, and some side houses need to be separated, which requires new land. If the land expansion of Guanlong aristocratic family is limited, I''m afraid it will take a few generations for Guanlong aristocratic family to be divided into seven parts.


    Other Guanlong aristocratic family owners also talked about it. In fact, what they really care about is not the Mohist family. Even if the Mohist family has become popular in Chang''an City recently, they don''t see enough in front of these aristocratic families who have passed on for hundreds of years. What they really care about is the attitude of the imperial court.


    "I don''t know what''s brother changsun''s attitude?" the master of Dou family asked. Changsun Wuji is the representative of Guanlong family in the imperial court.


    The master of the yuan family smiled bitterly and said, "I also invited brother Chang sun for the discussion of Guan long. Unfortunately, brother Chang sun didn''t come, but I just asked someone to bring a word."


    "What do you say?" asked Dou.


    "The governance of the Yellow River is a matter of merit in the present age and benefit in the future. It is beneficial to Shandong, Guanlong and Datang." the yuan family leader repeated the words of Chang sun Wuji completely.


    "What''s good for Guan Long? I think it''s good for his eldest grandson Wuji! I''m afraid a credit for governing the Yellow River has fascinated his eyes." the Chai family owner said angrily.


    "I can''t say so. Although the Mohist school is hateful, there is a sentence that talks about the point. The inflow into the Yellow River is not only sediment, but also the fertility of the land. I still remember that when I was young, many fields were good fields, with three loads per mu everywhere. However, now most of them are less than two loads. If I go on here, I''m afraid it will not be long before the land of Guanlong is ruined." The white haired Yu owner sighed.


    Yu family is also one of the descendants of the general of the eight pillar state and one of the leaders of the Guanlong family. As Merton said, the Guanlong family must have a long-term vision. It can be seen that governing the Yellow River is the place to save Guanlong. Otherwise, what will happen to their Guanlong aristocratic family if the land of Guanlong becomes fragmented, barren and barren? How can fur be attached without skin?


    Many aristocratic family leaders also want to understand this. They can''t help nodding. It''s just a long-term interest and an immediate interest. It''s really hard to give up.


    However, there were bursts of cheers outside Yuan''s house. Even in the quiet room in the depths of the people, they could hear them clearly.


    "What festival is it today?" the Chai family leader asked.


    "It''s still some time before the Mid Autumn Festival. How can there be any festival at this time?" Yu Jiazhu shook his head.


    The people couldn''t help looking at each other. They didn''t understand why the people of Chang''an City cheered so much.


    The owner of the yuan family opened the door and stretched out his hand. A middle-aged man dressed as a housekeeper immediately ran over.


    "What can I do for you, sir?" said the housekeeper respectfully.


    "What''s going on outside? Why is it so noisy?" the yuan family leader asked.


    The housekeeper replied, "if you return to your master, the flood discharge of the Yellow River embankment in Henan Province has been successful, and there will be no hidden dangers in the Yellow River this year. Your majesty ordered that Jin Wu can''t help reveling with the people today."


    In the hall, people couldn''t help looking at each other. The master of the yuan family had just made it clear that the Mohist school offered the method of flood discharge area, but he didn''t expect to receive such a miraculous effect.


    In this way, the Mohist School''s method of curing the Yellow River is correct and feasible. If so, Merton''s prediction of the collapse of Guanzhong will come true. In this way, even for the land of Guanlong, the method of controlling the Yellow River is imminent.


    "Alas! Heroes have been born since ancient times. I''ve heard the name of the MOH family for a long time, but today it''s an eye opener." Yu''s family owner sighed. The harm of the Yellow River has plagued China for thousands of years. Now it''s all cracked by a teenager.


    "I don''t care what you think, it''s related to the future of Guanlong. Yu''s family will fully cooperate in the management of the Yellow River." Yu''s owner resolutely said.


    Many aristocratic family leaders nodded one after another. After all, Guanlong is the place where they have deep roots. Once Guanzhong is broken, it will be the time when Guanlong aristocratic family will perish.


    "Is our land so fixed that the annual grain output will not change, and with the increase of population in the future, there will be trouble in Guanzhong?" said the Chai family master.


    "It''s not that there is no solution to this problem?" said the master of the yuan family.


    "What''s your opinion, brother yuan?" asked Dou.


    The master of the yuan family said, "this matter is also related to the Mohist family. Recently, the Mohist family has invited the leaders of all aristocratic families in Chang''an city to visit the Mohist experimental field at the autumn harvest. It is said that the Mohist family said that the minimum yield of the Mohist experimental field is four loads per mu. If we can get the farming method of the Mohist experimental field, there will be no food shortage in Guanlong."


    "Si Dan." all the aristocratic family leaders immediately exclaimed. Even their irrigated fields do not have such a high yield. Ordinary fields yield about two loads per mu.


    "I''m going to open my eyes." Yu''s master Lang said.

 Chapter 287

    Guozijian.


    When the news of the great victory of the Yellow River came, the whole Guozijian students suddenly burst into boiling.


    In particular, the students in Henan, Shandong and other places are even more excited. The disaster of the Yellow River can be said to be a permanent pain in the hearts of Shandong. This time, the danger of the Yellow River is even worse than in the past. It can be said to be a fluke.


    The greatest contribution to saving the Yellow River is to give the Mohist family to avoid the Yellow River flood. The students of the Imperial College are much more politically sensitive. Of course, they know how much the Mohist family contributed to this move, and even the whole Imperial College will be proud of it.


    Unfortunately, the mojiazi who has created such a miracle is about to leave the Imperial College.


    It''s strange to say that when mojiazi first came to the Imperial College, the whole Imperial College almost wanted to drive this alien out immediately. However, when mojiazi took the initiative to leave the Imperial College, people suddenly felt so reluctant.


    Unknowingly, the people found that the Mohist school had been living such a wonderful life in the Imperial College for nearly a year.


    In particular, Kong Yingda is full of five flavors. The Kong family is the representative of the Kanto aristocratic family. Once the Yellow river overflows, the Kong family will certainly suffer heavy losses. At that time, whether Qufu, the hometown of the Kong family, can be preserved or not. However, it is the rival of Confucianism, the Mohist school, to save Shandong.


    "The year-end exam?" Kong Yingda smiled imperceptibly at the corners of her mouth. "Mo Jiazi, it''s not so easy for you to leave the Imperial College!"


    According to his Majesty''s agreement, if Merton wants to graduate from the Imperial College, he must pass the year-end examination. At that time, let the Mohist see the real level of the Imperial College.


    However, these are all later words. The whole Imperial College quickly put these behind them. Today is a carnival day. Naturally, it is necessary for the whole city to celebrate, especially Jin Wu can''t help it. The night scene of Chang''an city is unique, and of course people won''t miss it.


    Make complaints about the National Union, which was once told by the minority people: feel shy, we all live on the prairie, and we dance like Indians, and every day we have small donkeys.


    However, similarly, the celebration of all people in Chang''an city is not singing and dancing without a word, but very... Very commercial!


    After hearing the victory of the Yellow River, people roared excitedly. After that, businessmen quickly put up preferential signs and loudly solicited customers. Before, a large number of goods were unsalable due to continuous heavy rain. They just took advantage of this opportunity to sell more.


    For a while, many vendors suddenly appeared on the streets of Chang''an City, taking the opportunity to solicit business.


    The real commercial feast is that after nightfall, the main streets of Chang''an city are lit with bright lights. The whole city is like a city that never sleeps.


    It is because it is rare that it is precious. It is rare for Chang''an city to open a night market. It must be the whole city.


    At the same time, the operation time of bus carriages has been extended, and several temporary routes have been added continuously. After this period of expansion, the public transport system of Chang''an City has been completely formed, and the travel of people is very convenient.


    At the same time, a large number of people in Chang''an City poured into the streets to enjoy the lights.


    Rosefinch Avenue.


    Merton and his party walked on the busy street and looked at the bustling rosefinch street. They secretly lamented the strong business atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Brother Mo, go, you are the protagonist today!" Qin Huaiyu impatiently urged Merton to look left and right.


    "Just to celebrate the big happy event of this day, I wrapped up a yard for my brother in the church secretary''s workshop today." Cheng Chumo urged aside.


    Wei Chi Baolin also looked forward to Merton.


    Merton is speechless. These three guys love to play most. They clearly want to play, but they use Merton as an excuse.


    "You go! I won''t go?" Merton shook his head with a bitter smile.


    "Don''t! You know how many brothel leaders in Jiaosi square and even pingkang square want to see you. Brother, I booked a ticket in front of my sisters." Qin Huaiyu begged.


    Since Merton redeemed Gongsun Yue and asked him to speak for thousands of worries, he has found a way out for the brothel women. The name of the Mohist school is at the height of the sun in the brothel in Chang''an city. Even the major flower leaders have said that as long as the Mohist school comes, they won''t accept any money, and even shout that there are many people who recommend themselves as pillows.


    "Fuck off, that''s why I can''t go over," Merton said flatly.


    Joke, if he gets into Liu Yong''s realm and goes to the brothel for free, he may become the biggest joke of all the walkers.


    Merton was cruel and secretly decided not to go to the brothel again... No, we''d better wait until the heat has passed!


    Qin Huaiyu left with regret. In fact, they were secretly happy. If there was Merton, they would be significant. Anyway, they had reached the goal in the name of Merton.


    "Isn''t lord Mo afraid of betraying the beauty''s mind?" just listening to the silver ear like voice behind him, Merton looked back and saw two women dressed as women looking at him with a smile.


    The two are princess Ziyi and Princess Changle. After all, they are happy with the people. The women''s medical school adjacent to the son''s prison of neighboring countries has also had a holiday for one day. The two women have long secretly met each other. At the moment, they even meet to visit Chang''an city at night.


    "Mo is a decent person all his life. He won''t associate with the three of them." Merton said with a red face and a heart. He didn''t remember his idea of going after the storm.


    Princess Changle turned her mouth. If it were true, there would be no Gongsun moon.


    "Young master, if you can''t say it in your mouth, you must be willing to do everything in your heart. Why bother yourself?" Ziyi said with a playful face. She and Princess Changle have long been friends. Today, Chang''an city is also open to the night market. Naturally, they meet to play together.


    "Nonsense again, go back and deduct your regular money!" Merton stared and threatened.


    Ziyi turned her eyes. Isn''t she afraid? Just the remuneration in the ink magazine makes her a little rich woman. She can''t see the money in the ink house?


    Suddenly, Merton smiled helplessly at the princess of Changle and said, "the family education is not strict. The princess is smiling. Yes, how can you not see your prince''s highness?"


    In the past, Princess Changle was accompanied by Prince Li Chengqian every time she came out, but this time she didn''t see the figure of the crazy devil who protected her sister.


    "Lord Mo doesn''t know yet. The prince''s brother has been appointed by his majesty as a special envoy to Henan Road for disaster relief. He has set out overnight," said Princess Changle.


    Merton remembered that it was recorded in history that Li Shimin sent people to Henan Road for disaster relief. However, this time, because Merton offered the method of flood discharge, the flood was controlled and the disaster was not serious. Li Shimin gave Li Chengqian a chance to exercise.

 Chapter 288

    "No wonder..." Merton suddenly realized that no wonder he didn''t see Li Chengqian.


    "It is rare to come out, and the little minister remembered that there was a newly opened shop in front of which there were good treasures. Princess Royal did not want to go ahead and pick out some treasures for his majesty and empress."


    Merton knows that Princess Changle is a little rich woman. The ice cream shops in Chang''an and Luoyang are making great progress every day. Merton saw Princess Changle with his own eyes at the western market event.


    "Forget it!"


    However, to Merton''s surprise, Princess Changle shook her head. This is not the style of Princess Changle.


    "Changle''s sister''s money is used to relieve the victims." Ziyi suddenly interrupted.


    "Relief for the victims?" Morton said in surprise.


    Princess Changle explained: "although the Yellow River flood is relatively light this time, the money needed is not small. In addition to the disaster relief money from the Ministry of civil affairs, the father emperor also took out a lot of money from the inside, and all the halls in the palace also reduced their expenses to help the victims. The money in my hand is useless, so I gave it all to the father emperor to help the victims."


    Merton suddenly realized that whether Li Shimin is buying people''s hearts or caring for the world, Li Shimin did set an example. Although it is simple, it is extremely practical. Princess Changle also saw Li Shimin''s practice and followed it.


    "The princess is merciful, and Weichen is ashamed." the Lord is right in front of him. Of course, Merton keeps sending good words.


    "Changle is nothing but the strength of some brocade, which is not comparable to the great contribution of Lord Mo to save the Yellow River." Hao Ran said.


    The more they talked, the more official they became. Ziyi said impatiently, "don''t flatter each other. Sister Changle, what do you like? Let the young master pay. He can give up now. He doesn''t care about more than ten or twenty gold ingots.


    Ziyi said to Merton in an impolite way. For a long time, the Mojia village has been laissez faire to Merton, and Merton has not let them down. However, at the grand event in the western regions, Merton spends money like dirt, which really frightens the people in the Mojia village.


    Although it was later proved that what Merton did was really worth the money, it was not copper money but gold ingots! Where could the poor Mojia village experience such extravagance? They were almost frightened one by one. The older generation of Mojia village talked about the extraordinary years of hard struggle of the ancestors of Mojia almost every day in Merton''s ear, which bothered Merton.


    Merton immediately smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the topic and said, "what does the princess like? Just tell me. It''s Weichen''s intention to distract the emperor and queen."


    "Still don''t! Father, emperor and empress are saving money for disaster relief. If you see us buying luxury things, you won''t like it." Princess Changle shook her head.


    Ziyi suddenly had an idea and said, "how about we give the money to the victims? Although I have little money, I also have hundreds of times. I can certainly get many victims through the difficulties. If it''s not enough, I can go back to Mojia village. The uncles and uncles of Mojia village will be willing to pay."


    Thinking of the excitement, Ziyi couldn''t help dancing. As a child of Mohism, the thought of love was always in mind.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help looking at Merton. She knew that Merton had always paid more attention.


    But Merton smiled bitterly and shook his head slowly.


    "Why not? We have money and are willing to help these affected people. Why not? It''s against the idea of Mohism to watch so many people suffer, but Mohism is indifferent." Ziyi said.


    Merton explained: "disaster relief is the behavior of the government since ancient times. It is the same in all dynasties. Personal disaster relief is that the local squire cooks some porridge for disaster relief. Even this is something that the local rich can do, not the Mohists who are thousands of miles away."


    "Why is this?" Ziyi didn''t understand.


    "Since ancient times, great disasters are easy to cause chaos. If someone buys people''s hearts in the name of disaster relief in the disaster area, I''m afraid..." Merton didn''t go on, but both Ziyi and Princess Changle knew what Merton meant. If the disaster relief people took the opportunity to cause trouble, I''m afraid it would be a huge rebellion. The status of Mohism is embarrassing. If they rush to relieve the disaster, I''m afraid it will be criticized.


    In ancient times, especially after Confucianism, all dynasties claimed to implement benevolent government, so the work of buying people''s hearts for disaster relief fell to the government.


    Even song Jing, the famous Minister of the Tang Dynasty, said directly, "the private benefits of people and ministers are still unacceptable. The country is kind and good governance." even if ordinary people are kind, it is also an act of buying people''s hearts, which is not allowed. Even if the government does not do well, it is good governance.


    Mohism has a special status. If you rush to relieve the disaster, I''m afraid it will be labeled as buying people''s hearts by those who are interested. At that time, the mud will fall into your crotch, not that, but that.


    "Then we watched the victims suffer, but we were indifferent? Those victims'' homes were destroyed. Now they sleep in the wilderness and lack food and clothing. It must be very poor." Ziyi was anxious to cry. He was also kind-hearted. He wanted to do something good, but he found it so difficult.


    Princess Changle was also immediately silent. The ultimate reason for this was the royal family. She had received Royal Education since childhood. Naturally, she knew the reason why the imperial court did so.


    Morton nodded regretfully and said, "there are many people who are willing to help these victims. These citizens who can cheer for the victory of the Yellow River will not be stingy to help those victims. Even if each person donates a penny, it is hundreds of thousands of money. Even if each household donates an old clothes, those victims will not suffer cold."


    Merton became more and more excited. Although these forces were small, they all gathered together, which must be a huge and extremely powerful force. In order to maintain their rule, all dynasties would rather waste these folk charities or even stifle them.


    "If only one could not be frightened by the rulers and make use of the charitable power of the people?" Merton held his fist with hatred. He was full of blood, but he was subject everywhere.


    Suddenly, Merton''s eyes fixed his eyes on the princess Changle, and he couldn''t help but be stunned.


    Why didn''t he think of it? Princess Changle, the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty, will certainly not be feared by the imperial court, and it also has great appeal. Isn''t it the best spokesman for folk charity.


    "Young master!" Ziyi looked at Merton discontentedly. It was very impolite for him to stare at Princess Changle.


    But Merton didn''t notice it at all. He quickly walked up to Princess Changle and said excitedly, "do you really want to help these victims?"


    Princess Changle''s heart moved. She immediately knew that Merton had an idea and nodded solemnly.


    "The royal highness of the princess can set up a red cross," said Morton with a sacred face.

 Chapter 289

    "The Red Cross?" Princess Changle asked.


    Merton nodded. "Since the Royal Highness has entered the women''s medical school, I know the logo of the Mexican hospital."


    Princess Changle''s heart moved and immediately nodded. Red crosses were embroidered on the clothes of all the staff in Mo hospital, ambulance and even Mo hospital.


    Now when people in Chang''an City see the Red Cross, they know it is the sign of Mo hospital,


    "So the so-called Red Cross Society is a doctor''s," asked Princess Changle.


    Merton nodded but shook his head and said, "whenever there is a major disaster, it is when people''s lives are the most vulnerable, so the Red Cross''s" that''s nature. The place we are most familiar with is the Imperial College. Most of the students here know them. How can we not bring them such good deeds of love. "Merton said with awe inspiring righteousness.


    Cheng chumerton turned his lips. He didn''t believe Merton''s nonsense. The students of the Imperial College didn''t have much friendship with Merton, and even had conflicts before. Maybe Merton''s move was to revenge these students and deliberately let them pay.


    Chumo wrongly blames Merton. Merton didn''t expect to raise much money from the imperial college students. In Merton''s opinion, the imperial college students are very similar to the college students of later generations. They have no money, but they are free, and they are hot-blooded teenagers. If Merton publicizes for a while, the volunteer team will surely increase like a snowball. Don''t you see the huge volunteers of later generations Most of the teams are college students.


    Moreover, the students of the Imperial College are themselves the future officials of the Empire. They have full credibility. If they can take to the streets to raise money, they will naturally have a good effect.


    Although Merton knows the benefits of the Red Cross, he knows that the huge number of volunteers contribute greatly to its great role. Therefore, in order to develop the Red Cross, the first task is to develop a volunteer team.


    "Come on, someone is coming. Open the slogan quickly." Merton quickly ordered.


    Immediately, Qin Huaiyu and his three men hung up the banners and slogans that Merton had already prepared.


    "One side is in trouble and all sides support!"


    "Help in times of crisis, no lover in flood"


    "For flood fighting and disaster relief, unite as one."


    Merton looked at the three banners and nodded with satisfaction. He originally wanted everyone to give a little love, and the world would become a beautiful world. He still felt that it was too straightforward in the Imperial College, so he''d better stay and use it in the future!

 Chapter 290

    "What are you doing here?"


    Merton and Qin Huaiyu were legendary figures in the Imperial College. The four of them blocked the entrance and exit of the Imperial College, which naturally aroused the curiosity of many imperial college students. Zu Mingjun just came in from the outside and couldn''t help coming together curiously.


    "This fellow supervisor, we are volunteers of the Red Cross. I wonder if you are willing to donate a love for the Yellow River flood." Merton said solemnly to Zu Mingjun with a surprised face.


    "Yellow River flood? Red Cross? Show love?" not only Zu Mingjun, but also a group of imperial college students gathered around the news. They couldn''t help but be covered with fog. The Yellow River flood. Last night, they just reveled for the Yellow River victory. Where was the Yellow River flood? As for the Red Cross and giving love, it is even more mysterious.


    "In order to overcome the Yellow River flood, Henan Province dug the Yellow River levee and introduced the water of the Yellow River into the flood discharge area. Although the lower reaches of the Yellow River were preserved, the people in these flood discharge areas still suffered heavy losses," Qin Huaiyu explained.


    "I see!" Zu Mingjun suddenly said.


    "As for the Red Cross, it is a non-governmental organization. Its purpose is to organize the people of Datang to donate money and materials voluntarily to help the people affected by the Yellow River flood tide tide over the difficulties," Merton explained.


    At the same time, Qin Huaiyu distributed the printed list of the Red Cross Society prepared by Merton overnight to a group of Guozijian students to publicize the concept of the Red Cross Society.


    "Oh!"


    The students suddenly realized that the Red Cross Society is an organization specialized in disaster relief and rescue.


    "Donations are all voluntary. No matter how much, they will be sent to the victims. At that time, the Red Cross will have detailed expenses and make them public." Qin Huaiyu said proudly. With this experience, Qin Huaiyu felt that his character had immediately sublimated a lot.


    Many students of the Imperial College nodded at once. Although they usually don''t deal with Mozi, they are still very convinced of Mozi''s character.


    Especially in terms of money, the Mohist is an expert in making money. Naturally, he will not be greedy for ink.


    "Then I''ll donate fifty Wen!"


    "I donate twenty Wen."


    "Ten words!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The imperial college students did not have much money, but they were not stingy. Some of them didn''t have much money, so they returned to their dormitory and took out some.


    This kind of donation, which can not only give love, but also will not have much impact on their own life, will not be rejected.


    Not only that, even the students in the Imperial College came one after another. After understanding the situation, they also gave generously.


    "Thank you! The people in the disaster area thank you."


    No matter how much or how little money he had, Merton did the same, bowing and saluting solemnly,


    Even if wesan came to donate, so did Merton.


    Wesan solemnly put a silver ingot into the fund-raising box, looked at Merton and hummed coldly: "you''d better send all the money to these victims, otherwise..."


    "How do you talk? Is Morton like that?" Chumo said angrily. About money, it should be said that others may be greedy for ink, but he believes that Merton alone is impossible.


    Merton wants to make money. With so many ink skills in Mojia village, he already doesn''t know how much money to earn.


    However, Merton pressed down the angry three and solemnly said, "if Wei Tongjian is not at ease, the Red Cross welcomes Wei Tongjian''s supervision. If it is missed, Merton is willing to apologize."


    "That''s nature!" whispered wesan coldly.


    "This guy really doesn''t know what''s good or bad. We do good deeds with our heart. He still doubts." Wei Chi Baolin snorted angrily.


    Merton said calmly, "money and wealth move people''s hearts. Even if I think I''m not moved, it''s inevitable that others don''t abide by the rules. If someone supervises, it''s the best thing."


    Many Guozijian students also nodded one after another. Merton''s move is indeed a long-term plan.


    "Well said!"


    A cheer rang out behind the Guozijian students. They turned around and saw Kong Yingda''s figure behind them.


    "Lord sacrifice!"


    Guozijian students quickly saluted.


    When Merton fought such a big battle at the gate of the Imperial College, Kong Yingda didn''t know that when Kong Yingda was worried about what moths Merton would make, he heard his subordinates report that he was a volunteer of the Red Cross Society to raise money for the flood of the Yellow River.


    "So it seems that the Red Cross Society is really dedicated to the people and selfless. However, the idea of this sacrifice is very similar to that of doctors." Kong Yingda sighed.


    Doctors have been practicing medicine to help the world, especially Sun Simiao, who often helps the poor to see a doctor for free. This Red Cross Society is tailor-made for doctors. Moreover, Kong Yingda doubted that doctors and Mohists were good friends.


    "The toastmaster knows that the primary task of the Red Cross is to save people, so doctors are the most important link," Merton replied.


    All the Guozijian students suddenly realized that no wonder Merton just called himself a volunteer.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help looking at Merton with inexplicable eyes. Based on his understanding of China Lao and Sun Simiao, they are both obsessed with medical skills. It''s obvious that this must be Merton''s idea.


    However, what he didn''t know was that such a thing was the idea of Merton and Princess Changle, and they probably just got the news.


    But Merton went on: "However, the three characteristics make the Red Cross independent of any family. First, the people to help must be the most urgent people, the doctors only help the patients, and the Red Cross is the poorest people including the patients and victims. Second, to help the people, there must be no return. Third, donations must be voluntary and do what they can, not for any profit, even the doctors."


    In front of Kong Yingda, Merton made no secret of the structure and intention of the Red Cross. After all, Merton had no selfishness in the establishment of the Red Cross.


    Kong Yingda was silent for a long time, sighed and said, "this is a good method."


    Kong Yingda clearly saw that once the Red Cross was successful, it would certainly benefit countless people.


    "This time, Henan Dao was hit by the disaster for the land of Shandong. I''m also grateful. I donated ten silver to show my heart." Kong Yingda had already prepared and took out ten Liang silver and put it into the fund-raising box. "


    "Thank you, Lord sacrifice!" Morton saluted.


    After Kong Yingda left, as expected, most of the students of the National Academy of Sciences were interested in volunteering. At present, the volunteer team immediately grew like a snowball.


    The first battle of the Red Cross was won.

 Chapter 291

    The crowd was in an uproar, and it was believed that Mojia village really donated 10000 yuan.


    Ten thousand Guan, that''s a huge wealth, and Mojia village donated without hesitation. You know, according to the concept of the Red Cross publicized by mojiazi, no one will attach any conditions to the donation, and mojiazi donated such a huge wealth without selfishness.


    However, this is only the beginning. In addition, a number of wealthy businessmen who made friends with Mojia village also donated money one after another.


    "Zheng''s firm donated 5000 yuan!"


    "Lu''s wine shop donated 3000 yuan!"


    "Qian''s pawn shop donated 2800 yuan!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The rich businessmen in Chang''an city are generous. Maybe they are like misers, haggling over every ounce and paying nothing, but they don''t hesitate at the moment.


    Due to the large amount of donations, it is impossible to take out the existing money. All of them are replaced by large donation lists. However, no one will doubt that these rich businessmen cheat donations, because the reputation of businessmen in Datang is above all else. If they lose their faith, they may have no chance to rise again.


    Soon, the large amount of donations in Dongshi soon spread throughout Chang''an city. The people of Chang''an city saw the horror of the Red Cross. If they could have such a huge fortune, the development prospect of the Red Cross would be unlimited.


    Li Zheng Dian.


    Li Shimin looked angrily at Princess Changle in front of him and said angrily, "so you set up the Red Cross society that caused a sensation in Chang''an City?"


    "Merton, it must be the boy Merton. I said why he is so active and what he is doing as a volunteer." Li Shimin said angrily.


    Princess Changle''s face was firm, she clenched her teeth and said, "yes, my daughter, as a long princess, wants to do something to share her father''s worries with the emperor."


    "What can you do with a girl''s family?" Li Shimin waved arbitrarily. Although the concept of the Red Cross is good, Li Shimin doesn''t think that just relying on the few Wen money of ordinary people can play much role.


    Princess Changle smiled confidently and said, "father, this is the account of the Red Cross for two days. Please check it."


    "200000 Guan?" Li Shimin didn''t care at all, but Yu Guang was startled when he scanned the accounts.


    200000 yuan, which is more than the money he took out of his internal money.


    "And this is just a donation from Chang''an City,... If all the cities in the Tang Dynasty have the Red Cross Society?" Princess Changle showed an arc at the corner of her mouth, depicting a grand vision for Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin was shocked. For the first time, he was shocked by the great potential of the Red Cross. For the royal family, the Red Cross is such an organization. How can he trust others.


    "The Red Cross is of great importance and must be named by the queen," Li Shimin compromised.


    "Thank you, father!" Princess Changle said happily.


    Soon, the news that queen changsun was the honorary president of the Red Cross and Princess Changle was the first president of the Red Cross spread all over Chang''an city.


    The whole Chang''an city was a sensation.

 Chapter 292

    "I see!"


    The people of Chang''an city suddenly realized that the Red Cross Society was so big that it was established by the title of changsun Yellow River and Princess Changle. No wonder mojiazi was just a volunteer.


    After hearing this, all the Guozijian students immediately cheered. This time, the Guozijian students followed Merton to actively raise money, which is the most correct thing.


    The rich businessmen who donated money with Mojia village were immediately excited. He didn''t expect that his donation could go directly to heaven. The amount of donation at the top must leave an impression in the Queen''s heart.


    At the same time, a large number of disaster relief materials began to be transported to Henan Road for disaster relief. The large amount and strength made the whole court smack at it.


    At this time, the whole court really attached importance to the charitable power of the people. In the future, there will be great disasters. Therefore, the combination of the people and the government will certainly minimize the harm of the disaster.


    Seeing the Red Cross on the right track, Merton was relieved and temporarily ended his volunteer status, because he had one of the most important things to do - the autumn harvest.


    Since he doesn''t need to worry about the autumn harvest in Mojia village, what he really needs to care about is the Mojia experimental field.


    Today''s Mohist experimental field, together with the 400 mu compensated by Qu Tujia and Zhang Jia, has already reached as much as 500 mu. However, what Merton really cares about is still the original 100 mu.


    Beside the Mohist experimental field, there was a lot of enthusiasm.


    Merton carefully accompanied Li Shimin, but Li Shimin still had a smelly face.


    Princess Changle''s establishment of the Red Cross Society is a kindness. As a father, she is naturally happy to see her daughter so loving and take the initiative to share her worries.


    But when he thought that there was another instruction from the Mohist family, he was angry. Since he met the Mohist family, the good girl Changle has disappeared, which makes Li Shimin happy.


    "Your Majesty, the other 400 mu of ordinary Mohist experimental field has been harvested, with an average yield of two loads per mu. It seems that Guanzhong this year is another bumper harvest year." Merton quickly said nothing.


    "Yes!"


    Li Shimin''s face is a little slow. Under the grain output of Datang, two loads per mu is already a good harvest year. Of course, most of the credit depends on the promotion of drought resistance.


    People dig wells in the farmland. Whenever the weather is a little dry, they take the initiative to start watering. The whole Guanzhong area is comparable to good weather, and it is reasonable to have a good grain harvest.


    Li Shimin is also concerned about the method of increasing production in the Mohist experimental field and the group of people in royal clothes who are personally exploring the Mohist experimental field. These are the contemporary owners of Guanlong aristocratic family, who were personally invited by Merton to visit the experimental field.


    "Are you sure the grain yield of the Mohist experimental field will double?" Li Shimin frowned.


    The reason why he came to the Mohist experimental field to observe the ceremony today is not only to see the Mohist experimental field, but also to accompany the leaders of these Guanlong aristocratic families.


    It is urgent to harness the Yellow River. The most important thing is to obtain the cooperation of these Guanlong aristocratic families, and Merton''s experimental field is the top priority. If the Mohist experimental field can really double the grain, so that the Guanlong aristocratic family will not lose grain because of reducing the field, the power to harness the Yellow River will be greatly reduced.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. Weichen has privately harvested a share of the field. As a calculation, there must be only a lot more grain." Merton told Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Merton''s arithmetic was exquisite. He didn''t expect that he could be used in this place.


    "It''s much smarter all day." Li Shimin said angrily.


    Merton felt his nose awkwardly and saw the white haired owner of the Yu family coming with a pile of ears of wheat, which helped Merton out.


    Li Shimin hurriedly greeted him and said, "it''s hot in the sun. I''m old. I''d better wait for the results under the shade of the tree."


    According to the seniority, Yu''s family leader is much higher than Li Shimin, and Li Shimin doesn''t pay attention to him.


    "Thank you, your majesty. It''s an eye opener for me to see such a bumper harvest," Yu said with emotion.


    "So, Mr. Yu also thinks that the Mohist experimental field can succeed?" Li Shimin asked in surprise.


    "That''s nature! This is the wheat growing so well in my life. The ears are full and the plants are uniform. At first glance, it''s a rare improved variety. In assisting the Mohist experimental method, the yield can''t be guaranteed, but it can increase production greatly. Yu''s owner looked at the full ears in his hand and said with emotion that in order to pursue yield, Merton, It is spring wheat with higher yield. Compared with the high yield of later generations, the yield of this matter is nothing?


    Li Shimin immediately felt relieved. Even the owner of the family said so. It must be a matter of ten to nine.


    "It''s really worthy of our reputation to meet the Mohist family who is famous in Chang''an city today." Yu looked at Merton with great interest and said that he seemed to be more interested in Mohist family.


    "The boy is naughty. If there is anything wrong, I hope the old man will give me advice." Merton quickly said modestly. Facing the famous Guanlong aristocratic family, Merton didn''t dare to be careless.


    "Lord Mo is too modest. Even the old man is shocked by such a grand harvest scene!" the owner shook his gray hair and said with emotion.


    In order to ensure the effect of the experiment, Merton directly hired thousands of people, 300 people to harvest, 300 people to transport and 300 people to thresh. In less than a morning, all the harvest has been completed.


    All the processes are carried out in full view of the public. If the Mojia village harvests by itself and then says how high its grain output is, people naturally doubt it. In this way, all people will witness it with their own eyes and naturally have no doubt.


    Near noon, finally all the wheat fields have been harvested. The owners of Guanlong aristocratic families come back from the fields with a little excitement. With their knowledge, they can naturally see that the yield of the wheat field in the Mohist experimental field must be much higher than that of them. If this method can be implemented, there will be a large number of land in each aristocratic family, and every 10% increase will be a lot of income.


    Soon, the Mohist experimental field has been completed.


    Mo Da came quickly and said excitedly when he saw Merton: "Congratulations, young master. The Mohist experimental field has a good harvest."


    "How much is the yield per mu?" Li Shimin asked urgently, and all the house owners listened one after another.


    Merton took a look and said excitedly, "the Mohist experimental field is divided into four parts. The first part is the deep ploughing experimental field with Quyuan plow, a total of 25 mu, with an average yield of two loads and five tons per mu."


    Guan Long aristocratic family leader nodded slightly when he heard the speech. This number is slightly higher than their fertile land, but it is not much higher!


    Merton then said, "the second field uses a lot of manure, with an average yield of three loads and five tons per mu."


    "Three loads and five!"


    Many aristocratic family leaders can''t help but raise their eyebrows slightly. Such high yield is indeed rare.


    "Lord Mo, it''s not easy to popularize this manure method on a large scale!" Yu''s owner asked with a smile. The method of composting to increase production is not rare, but it''s too difficult to collect manure, so it''s really difficult to implement it.


    Merton smiled and said, "Yu Lao is worried. There are a large number of chickens, ducks and geese in Guanzhong. Coupled with a large number of cattle and horses, it must not be difficult to collect. Moreover, the Mohists are about to cooperate with Chang''an city to collect manure. Yu Lao can also learn about it."


    Collecting manure may be difficult for ordinary people, but it is easy for aristocratic families.


    "In addition, the Mohists are about to implement the straw returning method to enhance the soil fertility. I believe Yu will also be interested." Merton pointed to the experimental field and saw that many people who had finished harvesting chopped the straw and then scattered it into the field.


    "Oh! I''m going to stay another afternoon," Yu said with a smile.


    Merton nodded and then said, "the third field is a medicine field, with a yield of three loads and seven tons per mu."


    "So high?" the leaders of Guanlong aristocratic family couldn''t help but smack their tongue. At the same time, they were suddenly excited.


    They have long been told what is going on in the drug seed field. The drug seed field is a mixture of pesticides and seeds to ensure the germination rate of seeds. This is the easiest way to implement it.


    In fact, it was beyond Merton''s expectation that such a high yield could be achieved. With a high germination rate, sufficient water and the implementation of the locust control method, this led to high yield.


    "The fourth field is the seed of medicine. In the field of manure, the average yield per mu is five hundredths," Morton said in a trembling voice.


    "Five loads!"


    Suddenly everyone was silent. No one thought that such a high yield could be achieved, and the yield could not be fake at all. The harvest was completed under their eyes.


    "It seems that there are deep ploughing methods to increase grain production, sufficient water, manure, sufficient germination rate and locust control. If these five methods are implemented at the same time, it is not impossible to double grain," Merton concluded.


    People could not help nodding. These methods are practical and can be popularized. Even if there are several of them, the output will increase greatly.


    "OK, OK, there is such a good recipe in Mojia village. I don''t want to worry about the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin laughed and said, "Congratulations, your majesty!" the head of Guanlong aristocratic family bowed one after another.


    With such a method of increasing production, the resistance of Guanlong aristocratic family to harnessing the Yellow River has also been minimized.


    However, Merton went on to say: "Mo believes that this is not the limit of grain. In the future, the Mohist experimental field will continue to cultivate and collect improved varieties, explore the reasons for the increase of manure production, and study the drugs for killing insects and diseases of crops. Maybe one day, our grain output will double again."


    "Double again? Isn''t it up to eight hundreds per mu?" the heads of the aristocratic families couldn''t help looking at the elated Merton and were surprised. If others said so, they would certainly laugh at each other''s madness, but they couldn''t help looking forward to the Mexican family, which doubled its grain output in just one year.


    Maybe on that day, the Guanlong family will have to rely on Mohism.

 Chapter 293

    It can be said that the Mohist experimental field has handed in a satisfactory answer. All the methods of increasing production in the Mohist experimental field are practical and feasible, that is to say, this method can be copied. It can be imagined that if it is popularized in Datang in the coming year, Datang''s grain will surely have a round of substantial growth.


    At the same time, Li Shimin solved the opportunity brought by the control of soil and water loss in the land of Guanlong. The cultivated land decreased, the grain output increased instead of decreasing, and the resistance of the Yellow River control method decreased greatly, which can be described as the best of both worlds.


    At the same time, this year''s grain harvest in Guanzhong was good, and the implementation of the grain price protection order was also very smooth. This time, without waiting for Mojia village to take the lead in purchasing grain, almost all grain merchants took the initiative to abide by the minimum grain purchase price, and the phenomenon of big bucket in and small bucket out was almost banned.


    In addition, there are flocks of chickens and ducks in every family in Guanzhong, and there is surplus money in hand and surplus grain in every family. The signs of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty have initially appeared.


    However, at the moment, Merton did not have the consciousness of the Savior of the Tang Dynasty. Instead, he concentrated on hiding in the library of the Imperial College and reading ancient books. He greedily absorbed the knowledge here like a sponge. He didn''t expect to leave the Imperial College. Instead, Merton felt a little reluctant.


    "Merton, why are you here?" Qin Huaiyu rushed over and took Merton out.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton wondered.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at Merton in surprise: "you don''t know what happened today?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "I''ve been in the library all day today. I didn''t go out of the Imperial College at all. Of course I don''t know."


    "Death row prisoners, those death row prisoners are all back." Qin Huaiyu said incoherently.


    "Death row prisoner? What death row prisoner?" Merton frowned.


    "You don''t know. At the end of last year, when his majesty examined the death row prisoner, he saw that he was very poor before he died, so he decided to return all of them home and agreed to execute again this autumn." Qin Huaiyu said excitedly.


    "That''s all right?" Morton stammered. If we know that every condemned person is a ferocious man, wouldn''t it be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain?


    "Yes! Many people also had this question at that time, but what I didn''t expect was that all the death row prisoners came back." Qin Huaiyu said inconceivably.


    Merton was shocked and said, "all are back?"


    Qin Huaiyu nodded and sighed, "yes, a total of 390 people have been brought to justice. Now they have arrived at the South Gate of Chang''an city.


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "go and have a look."


    You should know that these death row prisoners know that they are going to be executed in Chang''an City, but they still go back and forth, and all arrive in Chang''an City on this day. How do you think it is incredible.


    When they came to Chang''an City, they found that the South Gate had already been surrounded. Hearing the news, the people of Chang''an City were crowded, competing to watch the death penalty prisoners returned as promised.


    "There are many righteous people who kill dogs. I didn''t expect these people to keep their word."


    "Your Majesty sympathized with his pity and released him. You also failed to live up to your Majesty''s trust."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, all the people talked about it one after another, mostly focusing on Li Shimin''s kindness and the trustworthiness of the dead prisoners, forgetting that these death penalty prisoners had committed bloody debts.


    "Come with me."


    Qin Huaiyu turned left and right with Merton, and unexpectedly came to the root of the city wall. When the soldiers guarding the city saw Qin Huaiyu, they bowed their hands slightly and began to release.


    "These are my father''s men. Naturally, they won''t stop me." Qin Huaiyu explained.


    Morton nodded and followed Qin Huaiyu up the wall. He saw that there was more than Qin Huaiyu on the wall. Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin had already been waiting here. In addition, many official children in Chang''an City were also here.


    "What''s the situation now?" Merton hurried up to Chumo and asked.


    "All the dead prisoners have been in place, and the officials of the Ministry of punishment are checking their identities," Chumo replied.


    Merton stretched out his head and saw that under the south city gate, there were prisoners in prison clothes. The officials of the Ministry of punishment were checking the information, while Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, an old acquaintance of Merton, was standing in the front.


    "Report to the minister that all the prisoners have been checked and found to be correct," an official of the Ministry of punishment reported.


    "How is this possible?"


    The crowd was shocked. How could they not have thought that all the dead prisoners had returned.


    Li daozong took a deep breath and said, "go into the palace immediately and report to the emperor. All personnel are in custody on the spot."


    "Yes!"


    An official of the Ministry of justice took orders.


    Wei Chi Baolin wondered, "are these people stupid? Knowing that they are coming to die, they have to come back."


    In fact, Wei Chi Baolin was more than confused. Almost everyone felt incredible.


    "He died with emotion for his own promise. He is really a loyal man." a civilian son dressed up as a Confucian student sighed loudly.


    Merton snorted coldly, "what kind of generosity to die, they are already prisoners of death."


    "That''s what makes it more obvious. It''s commendable," argued the official''s younger brother.


    Merton suddenly snorted coldly, "but there are too many loyal people, and they have all committed capital crimes."


    As soon as Merton said this, the whole audience was silent. Yes, most prisoners on death row are not ferocious people. If they can produce one or two righteous dog butchers, they can understand it, but all 390 people are like this. They can''t believe it.


    "Hey, hey! If these people dare to escape, they will surely die, and will involve their parents and relatives. Besides, if they all come back, they may not die." a young man in black smiled.


    "This man is the second son of Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of punishment. He must know something?" Qin Huaiyu said softly in Merton''s ear.


    "Brother Zhang means..." someone asked.


    The young man in black smiled and said, "don''t say, don''t say?"


    When they were shocked, the doubts in their hearts became stronger and stronger.


    However, people''s doubts did not last long. Soon, a messenger eunuch pointed to the imperial edict and rushed here.


    "Since you were released last year, no one has been in charge of you. All of you have reached the Imperial Hall as scheduled, and no one has been killed or hidden. I am deeply gratified and hereby forgive you all..."


    "All pardon? Merton''s face suddenly changed.


    You know, these are not ordinary prisoners, but dead prisoners with bloody hands, not one or two, but 390. Li Shimin pardoned them all.


    "Your Majesty is kind, and the people are lucky to have this monarch."


    "This is the work of sage enlightenment?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the people cheered, especially the Confucian scholars, who thought that this was the result of Confucian education.


    Merton was not excited, but sad. Among the cheers of a group of Confucian scholars, Merton clearly heard a cry of Legalists.

 Chapter 294

    Legalists!


    Among the hundred schools of thought, the biggest rival of Confucianism was not the Mohist school which was as famous as Confucianism at that time, but the founder of the harsh criminal law.


    During the Warring States period, Legalists became popular, emphasizing "no intimacy, no distinction between high and low, and a break in the law". Advocate that the punishment should not avoid the minister and reward the good without leaving every man. It can be said that Confucianism, which is not a doctor, is a natural opposition.


    At that time, the legalist sages Li Xuan, Wu Qi, Shang Yang and Shen Buhai... Successively reformed the laws in various countries and created one powerful country after another.


    It can be said that legalism is the foundation of a powerful country. It can be said that no emperor can not know it, but the scene in front of him cooled Merton from the top to the bottom of his heart.


    "Pardon?"


    The people were stunned and looked at the dead prisoners under the wall in surprise, so they were pardoned.


    Many officials of the Ministry of punishment were also stunned. After repeated confirmation, they really believed that his majesty had really pardoned these dead prisoners and had to lift their chains for these dead prisoners.


    "Your Majesty''s benevolence is indeed a famous King through the ages!"


    At the moment, a Confucian student in a green shirt was excited and shouted. In his opinion, this is the highest embodiment of benevolent government. The king is kind, and even the death row prisoners are so honest. Isn''t this the highest level of Confucian education? What''s more sensational than educating the death row prisoners.


    "Your Majesty''s benevolence is indeed a wise king through the ages!"


    The rest of the Confucian scholars suddenly shouted excitedly. In their opinion, if you believe in the people and the people do not live up to you, it will become a good story through the ages in the future.


    "Your Majesty''s benevolence, we will certainly reform in the future, live up to your Majesty''s trust, and pass on your Majesty''s name of benevolence and justice." a group of prisoners were overjoyed and quickly kowtowed to thank you. Everyone was surprised.


    "Your Majesty is really a God and man! Even such prisoners can be influenced!" many ordinary people are also excited and look at the direction of the Imperial Palace in the north with a look of worship.


    However, Merton shook his head slightly and looked at the Confucian scholars silently, shouting that his Majesty''s benevolent government was so moving that even the death row prisoners were so honest. If these death row prisoners are honest people, how can they do things with bleeding debts.


    Although these dead prisoners knew that they would come to die, they still kept their promise. It is commendable, but the premise is that they are prisoners of death. The Tang Dynasty has always used the death penalty carefully, and the administration of officials is clear. I''m afraid none of these 390 people is wronged.


    In the eyes of these Confucian scholars, it is all about the benevolence of his majesty and the trustworthiness of these prisoners, but no one thinks about how to protect the rights and interests of those victims.


    On the city wall, all the officials'' children can''t help being numb. As officials'' children, they know more about the laws of the Tang Dynasty than ordinary people.


    Unless the new emperor ascends the throne or is critically ill, the moment of amnesty is very rare, but amnesty is not pardoned by everyone in the world.


    The ancients once said, "ten evils are unforgivable! For example, ten crimes such as rebellion, conspiracy, treason, evil rebellion, immorality, disrespect, unfilial, disharmony, injustice and civil strife are not pardoned.


    In addition to these heinous crimes, murder, arson, prison robbery and official crimes are also clearly stipulated not to be pardoned. At most, they are only exempted from crimes. The real pardons are only criminals who do little harm to the ruling order.


    But you know, there are 390 people in front of you, and all of them are prisoners on death row. Li Shimin''s move is extremely incredible.


    What is more strange is that no official in the whole court stopped it, and even the will of pardon passed through three provinces and six ministries in a very short time. This is the most abnormal thing.


    As soon as Merton turned his mind, he suddenly realized that this was a performance, a performance of praising Li Shimin.


    Merton has always known that there is a flaw in Li Shimin''s heart. This flaw is the change of Xuanwu Gate. Whether Li Shimin thinks that he is forced to fight back to protect himself, or how excellent his emperor is, he can''t cover up the fact that Li Shimin imprisoned his father and killed his brothers and brothers.


    So Li Shimin and officials of the Ministry of punishment, who were eager to change their reputation, directed a good play of benevolence, virtue and Mingjun. If it was other Ministry of punishment Shangshu, it might not work, but at this time, the Ministry of punishment Shangshu was Li daozong, the most staunch supporter of the Li Tang family, and everything was in order.


    Merton felt sad. It was just a play, a play directed and performed by himself, and the price paid was the dignity of Legalists.


    For a moment, many officials'' children figured out the truth and couldn''t help blinking their eyes.


    "This is the sorrow of Legalists. I have taught law all my life, abided by the law and spread legalist theories. Now, how to face the legalist sages, it''s better to return home from now on."


    Under the city wall, Merton saw the doctor of law bow his back deeply, like a broken spine. He took off his hat and was ready to hang his hat.


    "The doctor is the pillar of the Imperial College. How many officials of the Ministry of punishment cultivated for the Tang Dynasty can leave so rashly." Li daozong quickly dissuaded. He is the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment. Naturally, he knows how much influence the doctor of law has.


    The doctor of law smiled miserably and said, "since your majesty has found a way to reform death row prisoners, future death row prisoners can follow this example. I have no use with an old bone."


    Li Dao zongdun''s face turned red. He naturally knew the reason and was immediately ashamed.


    If you follow this Law in the future, everyone knows that even if you kill someone, you can be pardoned as long as you come back on time the next year. Isn''t it a mess that day.


    "You are ashamed of the law!" the doctor of law turned and saw the children he had taught, and he was very sad.


    "Teacher!" all the officials of the Ministry of punishment couldn''t help looking ashamed.


    Most of them graduated from the Imperial College. Seeing their mentor say so, they can''t help looking ashamed. As the executors of the law, they certainly know that the greatest role of the law is to punish evil, but today they personally connive at evil.


    "The legalist is dead!" cried the doctor of law! Staggering away, the doctor''s hat fell in his hand and was heavily trampled under his feet. However, no criminal official followed the doctor of law.


    "The Legalists are dead!" Merton felt sad when he saw this.


    In the pre-Qin period, Legalists were so powerful and powerful. However, under the external Confucianism and internal law, Legalists became a tool for rulers to fish for fame and reputation. It seemed to exist forever and had lost its spirit. It was like a walking corpse and was manipulated by others.


    The sad cry of the doctor of law was just the last cry of Legalists, which was soon drowned in the cheers of Confucianism. It can''t even lift a trace of wind and waves.

 Chapter 295

    Chang''an City, Yong''an square.


    "Benedictine Benedictine!"


    Merton took a deep breath and rang the door of the house in front of him.


    "Who is it?" an old voice came. A white haired Porter opened the door and saw Merton outside the door.


    Merton made a solemn gesture: "Mohist Merton came to see legalist Daxian, simultaneous interpreting."


    "Mohist, Mohist!" the porter was surprised and looked at Merton in surprise.


    He has lived in Chang''an City for a long time. Of course, he has heard of Merton and knows that Merton is now a student of the Imperial College, and his master was a doctor of the Imperial College before.


    What shocked him more was that Merton used the name of the Mohist school as the prefix, not the students of the Imperial College. The concierge dared not neglect and hurriedly informed Merton.


    After a while, the doctor of law in civilian clothes came out, his face was very pale, and obviously he didn''t recover from the blow.


    "How dare you let the master meet you? The students are ashamed!" Merton hurried forward.


    The doctor of law shook his head and said, "in the Imperial College, you call me a master, and I naturally deserve it. At the moment, you are a Mohist, and I am a legalist, and my status is not high or low."


    They entered the living room and sat down one after another. Merton looked around and saw that all the items in the doctor of law''s house were in good order, just like legalist order. He couldn''t help nodding his head and praising it. Moreover, the master and servant of the doctor of law wear good clothes, but there are few ornaments, which is just in line with the legalist concept of emphasizing quality rather than decoration,


    "Ah Tong! Prepare tea!" the doctor of law ordered the porter.


    "Yes, sir!" the porter immediately left.


    After Merton took his seat, he quickly handed over a pile of books and put them in front of the doctor of law''s desk: "this is the code of foreign Legalists. Due to the lack of time, the students only collect some fragments. In the future, the silk road will surely send more codes to the master at that time."


    The doctor of law looked a little moved, nodded and said, "you have a heart, but it''s too late. Unfortunately, among the theories of hundreds of schools, Mohism and France are both prominent schools. Now, although Mohism has experienced underestimation, it has risen again, and Legalism has really declined."


    The amnesty of 390 death row prisoners made the last legalist sage really sad and aware of the end of legalism. Under the leadership of Merton, the Mohist School recovered strongly.


    Merton advised, "master, it''s bad. With a legalist sage like master, Legalists will not really decline."


    At the moment, the porter named a Tong made tea and brought it in. The doctor of law shook his head and said, "the old man is only one person. Most of the others are vassals of power and wantonly misinterpret the law. I''m afraid the Mohists will be disappointed if they want to cooperate with Legalists against Confucianism."


    Merton smiled and said, "the master''s words are different. From ancient times to the present, only the three schools of Taoism, Legalism and Confucianism can become the thought of governing the country. The Mohists have long given up their political ideas and concentrated on doing a good job in Mohism."


    The doctor of law couldn''t help raising his eyebrows and looking at Merton said, "so Confucianism is the general trend, and even the Mohists don''t want to compete with it."


    Merton said with a wry smile, "according to the current trend, it is indeed so."


    In the era of extremely scarce material conditions and blocked traffic, the Confucian education thought is indeed the best choice for the rulers. It is impossible to shake it in a short time. It can be said that in this era, Confucianism conforms to the trend of history and is irresistible.


    The doctor of law wondered, "what''s the reason why you came today?"


    "The students want to invite the master out of the mountain to govern the Mohist village," Merton said solemnly.


    The doctor of law hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "the Mohist school doesn''t have its own theory. How can the Mohist village need Legalists to govern me!"


    Merton said: "the governance of Mohist village by Mohist theory is still poor, but now Mohist village is advancing vigorously. It is natural to govern by inaction. Confucianism is incompatible with Mohist ideas.


    At the same time, most of the people in Mojia village are from the same village. They have a variety of worldly skills. They may be able to work together in a short time. Over time, intimacy will happen, and Confucianism will be popular. In addition, with the increase of foreign population, contradictions will breed, and Mojia village will fall into internal and external worries.


    In this way, only legalist theory is the most practical way to govern Mojia village. "


    The hidden worries of Mojia village have long appeared, but they have been covered up by the rapid development. Merton has long had a plan to govern Mojia village. There happened to be the pardon of death row prisoners. Merton took the opportunity to invite a doctor of law to go out.


    "With the rule of law!" the doctor of law asked solemnly.


    "Yes! It''s the rule of law," Merton nodded,


    "It is said in the world that the Mohist family has great intelligence. In my opinion, even the world''s highest intelligence can''t match your boy''s insight. The rise of the Mohist family is not lucky!" the doctor of law couldn''t help sighing.


    The hidden worries of Mohist village have just begun to show. Merton can detect them in time and think of solutions. It''s unreasonable for Mohist to be discouraged.


    "Unfortunately, I''m already discouraged. You''d better hire another talented person! With your insight, I''m afraid anyone can do well!" the doctor of law said discouraged.


    Merton said, "the master has been lamenting the decline of legalism, but he doesn''t know why. Now the whole world is shrouded by Confucianism. Only the Mojia village is a pure land. If the Legalists can take this opportunity to make the Mojia village flourish, they will be able to show the Legalism in front of the world. Isn''t this an opportunity for the Legalism?"


    The doctor of law''s eyes flashed and suddenly sneered: "Merton, you''ve made a good idea. You''re not only trying to govern the Mohist village, but I''m afraid you''re also one of them with the help of my prestige!"


    The doctor of law has taught the Imperial College for many years, and most of the officials of the Ministry of punishment are their disciples and old officials. If he joins the Mojia village, he will certainly reduce a lot of trouble for the Mojia village.


    Merton said without any guilt: "the prosperity of Mohist school can show the ability of Legalists, and Legalists in Mohist village can have independent adjudication power."


    "Independent adjudication?" the doctor of law was shocked and suddenly looked at Merton.


    "Yes, in Mojia village, once a violation of Mojia village rules is handed over to the legalist ruling, it will not be interfered by anyone, including me! This ruling can be overturned only if all the villagers oppose it." Merton said solemnly.


    The doctor of law had a turbulent heart. At this moment, he seemed to see the future of Legalists. He didn''t expect that at the lowest point of his prosperity, the hope of a legalist''s re rise appeared in front of him.


    "If you want me to join the Mojia village, I''ve heard that you have to take part in the year-end assessment of the National Academy of Sciences. If you can write a legalist law to my satisfaction during the year-end assessment, I will naturally promise you." the doctor of law relaxed.


    Merton smiled and said confidently, "I''m sure I won''t let the master down."

 Chapter 296

    Dungeon!


    That is, the prison of the Ministry of punishment is the place where the imperial court imprisons serious criminals. Usually, few people who enter the prison can survive. As ordinary people, this place is extremely mysterious and terrible, so it is called the prison.


    The news that Li Shimin pardoned 390 prisoners on death row caused an uproar in Chang''an City and naturally spread to the prison. In the prison, all the condemned prisoners cheered and shouted for his Majesty''s benevolence.


    In the most heavily guarded area of the prison, the robbers and fierce wolves in prison clothes are kneeling piously towards the palace


    "Your Majesty is kind and virtuous. If you go out in the future, you will certainly turn over a new leaf and be a new man!"


    He committed a crime years later. Merton painted his face with new painting skills and was finally arrested. According to the Convention, he will be executed after this autumn. According to his crimes, he will die more than ten times. Originally, he was desperate. However, the news of Li Shimin''s pardon of death prisoners gave him hope.


    The fierce wolf of the robber has a pious face, which is like a reform. The original ferocious face has also become downcast.


    However, in the heart of the thief and the fierce wolf, he said: "are these dead prisoners stupid? They returned home with such good luck and were pardoned by the dog emperor. If I go back, I don''t know where to escape. No, I have to find the Mo family before I leave to get justice.


    The thief and fierce wolf involuntarily felt a trace of hatred in his heart. He had never missed for many years and relied on caution. However, he didn''t expect to encounter the evil spirit of the Mo family and draw his head with the dictation of a survivor.


    How can he not repay such a great revenge? The thief and fierce wolf secretly hated in his heart and prayed piously in his mouth to praise Li Shimin''s benevolence.


    "Stop shouting, you can''t go out." a dead voice came from the next cell.


    "Don''t talk nonsense. Your Majesty was able to release 390 dead prisoners home last year, and these dead prisoners will return as scheduled. It will be the same this year! If you want to live, hurry up like me!" The thief and the fierce wolf quickly shouted that all those who can be held here are death row prisoners. The greedy wolf naturally knows that he is also a death row prisoner next to him, but the death row prisoner is usually very dull and doesn''t communicate with anyone at all.


    "Hahaha! I thought you were a resounding figure. I didn''t expect you to be so naive! Do you really think those dead prisoners came back voluntarily?" the death penalty inmates in the adjacent prison couldn''t help laughing and crying.


    "Why, what''s the secret?" the thief fierce wolf couldn''t help but be stunned.


    "The dead prisoners released last year are all family members. Your majesty will release them. If they want to escape, I''m afraid the whole family will be implicated. Moreover, the officials of the Ministry of punishment clearly announced that if they can return as scheduled, they will certainly reduce their crimes. Do you think they will come back?" the death prisoners in the adjacent prison said madly.


    "How do you know?" the thief wolf didn''t believe.


    The death prisoner in the adjacent prison gnashed his teeth and said angrily, "because I was the death prisoner last year! I have been imprisoned since I was not bound by my family.


    "Ah!" the thief and the fierce wolf suddenly looked silly. He didn''t expect such a secret.


    "Do you have a family?" asked the death row prisoner in the neighboring prison.


    The thief and the fierce wolf shook his head decadent. Only when he was alone all his life could he commit such a heinous crime.


    The thief and the fierce wolf immediately felt as if they had been drained of their energy and spirit, and their eyes were dull.


    With a squeak, the door of the death row was heavily opened, and a team of prison guards poured in. A bowl of rich dishes, including chicken and meat, was placed in front of the dead prisoners. Compared with the previous meals, it was a good sky.


    However, everyone knows that this meal is a decapitation meal to make them a full ghost.


    Suddenly, there was a dead silence in the prison.


    "It''s impossible. Last year''s death row prisoners have been released. Why has it changed this year?" one death row prisoner couldn''t believe it and shouted.


    Other prisoners on death row also made an uproar and shouted:


    "We have family!"


    "I''m a famous filial son. After I''m released, I''ll return as scheduled."


    "My wife and children..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Death row inmates in other cells shouted loudly, but there was no response.


    The death prisoner in the adjacent prison said coldly, "Your Majesty''s good reputation has been established. How can you violate the law and discipline again? If someone makes a fool and runs away, will your Majesty''s reputation fall short.


    Only then did the dead prisoners wake up like a dream and feel like mourning.


    "I don''t eat, I don''t want to die!"


    "Let me go home! I swear to God, I will never break the law again."


    Immediately, the whole death row was crying, and everyone was greedy for life and death. Yesterday, because of today''s results, the evil results that had been done were finally rewarded.


    "Dizzy king!"


    A group of dead prisoners first wailed and then cursed loudly. They cursed how unfair Li Shimin was compared with the pardoned death penalty prisoners before. They didn''t think of the crimes they had committed and how unfair the victims were.


    Only last year''s death row inmates laughed miserably and said, "ha ha, I''m lucky enough to live for a year. I''m not at a loss today."


    After eating his own food, he saw that the food of the thief fierce wolf in the adjacent prison was still intact and said, "if you don''t eat, I''ll eat it!"


    The once powerful and ferocious thief and wolf collapsed to the ground like a broken bone and tendon, and Li ignored it.


    And now the appearance of Mohist school.


    Seeing this, the death row inmates in the adjacent prison couldn''t help but reach out and pick up the food. They took care of themselves and ate it.


    According to the practice of the Tang Dynasty, the execution of the death penalty had to be performed three times. However, this year''s death penalty was approved by Li Shimin very quickly. Only three days after the death row was pardoned, a large number of prisoners on death row had been approved for execution.


    Otherwise, it will take a long time. If the people think that after killing people, they can return home as scheduled, I''m afraid Datang will be in chaos immediately.


    Downtown entrance of Chang''an City,


    A large number of people poured into the downtown entrance. The annual beheading after autumn is the most popular activity in Chang''an city. It was a pity for the people of Chang''an city not to see it last year. This year, they finally got what they wanted.


    "It''s quarter past noon!" a criminal official shouted at the top of his voice, looking at the shadow of the sundial.


    "Execution!"


    At the command of the beheading officer, a token with a big word of beheading was thrown into the execution ground.


    In the execution ground, the big robber, the fierce wolf and the death penalty prisoners happened to be divided into the same group for execution. They looked at each other and clearly saw their great fear in each other''s eyes.


    The thief and the fierce wolf wanted to shout. I was still a hero 18 years later, but there was only a wail in the face of the executioner''s high sword.


    The knife flashed and the head fell to the ground.


    In the face of the bloody execution scene, all the onlookers could not help but keep silent. Even the ferocious people in peacetime could not help but be afraid of such a scene.


    This is the real essence of legalism. We can''t help punishing crimes and deterring crimes.


    If everyone abides by the law, the world will be peaceful, the society will be stable, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. Naturally, the country will be rich and the people will be strong.

 Chapter 297

    Kong Yingda, the Imperial College''s wine offering, went to invite the doctor of law to return to teach three times, but was rejected by the three.


    Therefore, a new doctor of law came to the Imperial College. After all, there are many people staring at the position of doctor of law of the Imperial College, and there is no lack of talent in law in the Tang Dynasty.


    The new doctor of law is much younger. The most frequently said word in explaining law is that legal principles are nothing more than human feelings.


    Every time I would take up Li Shimin''s explanation of pardoning death row prisoners. When it came to excitement, many Guozijian students cheered.


    After listening to it several times, Merton never listened to it again. Instead, he focused on collecting the laws of various dynasties and studying them carefully. He promised the doctor of law to write good laws. Naturally, he can''t relax.


    Time is the best way to forget. Before long, the resignation of the doctor of law was not mentioned in the Imperial College. When the clothing leave began, all the students left school one after another. I''m afraid no one will remember it after a month!


    Clothing leave, like Hetian leave, is also the most important holiday for students in Datang. The duration is one month.


    As the name suggests, the main purpose of clothing leave is to let some students go home to buy winter clothes. September is close to late autumn, and the weather will change. Once the weather drops suddenly, it is impossible to resist the cold with thin summer clothes.


    In the Mo mansion.


    Merton, who is on vacation, is carefully reading a law book.


    "Rule by man."


    Merton shook his head and closed the martial law.


    According to Merton''s later ideas, the harsh aspects of martial law are heinous, and there are many loopholes. If Merton wants to commit a crime, I''m afraid he can''t cure the crime by relying on martial law for a lifetime.


    The law of Wu De was almost copied by Li Yuan according to the law of the Sui Dynasty, and Li Shimin had already ordered Chang sun Wuji and Fang Xuanling to formulate the law of Zhen Guan. It is said that it has been made for five or six years and has roughly taken shape.


    If not surprisingly, the law of Zhenguan will be like the law of martial virtue, and the Confucian thought of morality as the principal and punishment as the auxiliary will be fully reflected.


    The foundation of Mohism is still shallow, and he is naturally unable to change Li Shimin''s decision, but for changing the unformed law of Zhenguan, perhaps the examination at the end of the year is his only chance.


    "Young master, it''s not good!" Fubo hurried.


    Merton frowned slightly, put down the law in his hand and frowned, "what''s the matter?"


    "Tuyuhun invades the border, and wars have broken out in Hexi and Longyou." Fubo said anxiously. As a man who experienced the turmoil in the late Sui Dynasty, he certainly knew the cruelty of the war.


    "Tuyuhun has the courage to offend me." Merton frowned.


    Fu Bo said with a bitter smile: "Tuyuhun was captured by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty in the previous dynasty. After the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Tuyuhun took the opportunity to occupy the fortress on his own. According to the danger, we can only defend passively in the Tang Dynasty. Every autumn, Tuyuhun will wantonly raise troops and seize the opportunity to rob."


    "In this way, the Longyou generation in Hexi will not be in continuous war." Merton said anxiously.


    Fubo said, "that''s not true. Now the trade route to the western regions has been cut off, and all the stuffy horses sold to the western countries in Mojia village are unsalable."


    The stuffy horse is specially used for the northern countries, and the northern land is bitter and cold. In winter, the demand for stuffy horse is greater. Now it is a hot time. Every day of war, the loss of Mojia village will be more.


    Merton frowned and asked, "what about the white stack we ordered in Hu Shang''s hands?"


    Fuber shook his head and said, "I''m afraid it''s also blocked by the war. So far, no car has arrived.


    Since he got the news of cotton, Merton ordered a large number of baidiezi in gaochangguo. The main reason is to obtain cotton seeds.


    Secondly, he is going to take this opportunity to buy winter clothes for Mojia village. Last winter, Mojia village was still hungry. I''m afraid there are few decent winter clothes to spend the cold winter except Merton.


    At the moment, with the war, the cotton seeds are all right. As long as they arrive next spring, the winter clothes of the Mohist children are almost gone.


    "Young master, don''t worry! Even without baidiezi, the people of Mojia village may not have the worry of cold. A fur coat can be bought by the children of Mojia." Fubo advised that now Mojia village is not as poor as it used to be, so it''s OK to buy a fur coat.


    Merton shook his head. Of course, he knew that Mojia village had become rich, and it was not difficult for everyone to buy fur clothes.


    But his real purpose is to play an exemplary role through the Mohist children wearing cotton clothes, and find a way out for the people of the Tang Dynasty to spend the winter. At the same time, as long as the people of the Tang Dynasty realize the role of cotton, they will get twice the result with half the effort..


    In fact, in future generations, there is also a sharp tool to keep warm, that is, down jacket. It is reasonable to say that with the artificial incubation technology, Datang''s duck down production is enough, but Merton knows that down jacket is impossible to achieve in Datang in a short time.


    Because to solve the biggest problem of down jacket, one is the high-temperature disinfection of down, and the other is fabric. In this era of pure handcraft, even the best Shu Brocade can''t hide down.


    At the moment, Qin Huaiyu and his three people walked into the ink house with an angry face.


    "What''s matter with the you?" asked Merton.


    "Who else can it be? It''s not the old man Fuyun!" Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    "Fuyun? King Tuyuhun?" Merton suddenly remembered who Fuyun was.


    "Don''t you know, Morton? Tuyuhun''s soldiers plundered Shanzhou, and the whole people of Shanzhou were under Tuyuhun''s iron hoof." Chumo said.


    "Seriously?" Morton was suddenly surprised. Shanzhou is an important town in Longyou. If Tuyuhun robbed this place, it can be seen that Tuyuhun committed a large-scale crime this time.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded heavily. All three of them were the children of generals. The news they got came from the military. It was much faster.


    "It''s so hateful! Old Fu Yun is looking for death. He should deceive me like this." Chumo said angrily.


    As a general''s son, he learned all his life to fight on the battlefield. When he met this, he was naturally angry.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Tuyuhun is just a clown. According to the geographical advantage, he has an advantage for the time being. Even the Turkic grassland masters are defeated by the iron hooves of the Tang Dynasty. How long can Tuyuhun jump?"


    Merton remembered clearly that just next year, Datang had sent troops to attack Tuyuhun, but failed to do all the work. The next year, Datang''s military God Li Jing personally sent troops to destroy Tuyuhun.


    After the grand event in the western regions, the value of the silk road has emerged. Li Shimin not only cherishes feathers, but also has a great desire to open up Xinjiang and expand land. How can he tolerate Tuyuhun''s threat to the Silk Road.


    Sure enough, as Merton expected, Li Shimin mobilized heavy troops to gather in Longyou, but Tuyuhun had already looted all around Shanzhou, leaving a mess.


    After the news reached Chang''an City, the whole city was in an uproar and everyone was filled with righteous indignation.


    With this news came the envoys of Tuyuhun and Tubo. Their purpose was not to make amends through peace talks, but to marry the princess of Datang for their king and Prince.


    That is, marriage.

 Chapter 298

    And kiss!


    The real sense of reconciliation began in the Han Dynasty. In that year, Liu Bang, a white mountaineering position, was besieged by impostors. He was not allowed to use tricks to impossibly offer beauty''s property, which enabled him to escape. From then on, China''s most characteristic reconciliation policy began.


    From the beginning, the reconciliation was a humiliating process, which was the submission of the Central Plains Dynasty to external humiliation. What really made the reconciliation popular was the release of Zhaojun, which we are familiar with.


    It has been said that 60 years of peace on the border of the Tang Dynasty can be achieved by leaving the border alone. In the eyes of the rulers of all dynasties, it would be the most cost-effective thing in the world if a woman could be sacrificed to avoid 60 years of war at the border.


    "Tuyuhun has always been better with the Central Plains. In the former dynasty, my king once made peace with the Central Plains and married the princess Guanghua of the former dynasty. The two countries have been peaceful for decades. Now my king wants to follow the example and specially orders me to come and ask for peace. Since then, the two countries of Datang and Tuyuhun have always forged a friendship between Qin and Jin, and there are no border problems at the border!"


    In Taiji hall, Tuyuhun emissary dressed in grassland costumes talked freely. In fact, Tuyuhun boasted that it was true that Tuyuhun made peace with the Sui Dynasty. However, when Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was in power, Tuyuhun directly conquered Tuyuhun. It was not until the demise of the Sui Dynasty that Tuyuhun took the opportunity to restore his throne.


    Li Shimin said coldly, "did Tuyuhun openly rob Shanzhou to ask for a marriage in good faith?"


    The envoy of Tuyuhun arched his hands and said, "Tian Khan calmed down his anger. This is what the famous King did privately. After the young envoy returns to Tuyuhun, he will certainly report to our king and severely punish him."


    The regime structure of Tuyuhun is a typical nomadic nationality. In addition to voyun being the king of Tuyuhun, there are many kings in Tuyuhun, and the famous King is the most powerful one. Voyun has long been dissatisfied with it. If it can be eradicated by the hands of the Tang Dynasty, it will kill two birds with one stone.


    Li Shimin and his courtiers looked a little relaxed. It would be a good thing if they could spit out grain Hun with their relatives and stop the border trouble between the two countries.


    The Minister of rites Linghu de Yu frowned and said, "I don''t know which Prince Tuyuhun is going to propose for."


    Voyun, king of Tuyuhun, is old and naturally married the Guanghua Princess of the previous dynasty. Naturally, he is not among the relatives, so only voyun''s son is possible!


    The messenger of Tuyuhun said, "there is a noble son under the king''s knee to honor the king. He is only eighteen. He is a first-class warrior of Tuyuhun. My king specially asks for a marriage for the noble son of the king!"


    Li Shimin pondered a little. According to the information of the Tang Dynasty, Prince Zun is indeed Fu Yun''s favorite son. If he can get married and with the help of the Tang Dynasty, he will be able to win the throne of Tuyuhun in the future. At that time, there will be no worries at the border between the two countries.


    "However, my son heard that there was an ice and snow princess in the Tang Dynasty. She was as beautiful as ice and snow. The ice and snow made by her was delicious. I Tuyuhun had snow mountains all over the country and kept ice and snow all year round. Isn''t it just a match made in heaven?"


    The whole dynasty was in an uproar. Snow princess is the folk title of Princess Changle. The story of snow and ice cream and ice cream are popular in Chang''an City in hot summer. Gradually, it has been spread that ice cream is the work of Princess Changle, so it gradually has the reputation of snow and ice princess.


    Linghu Deyu suddenly changed his face and said angrily, "it''s really arrogant. Throughout China, there has never been a royal daughter and relatives."


    Cheng Yaojin took a bite and said with a cold smile, "Tuyuhun really thought that my troops and horses in Datang were unfavorable, but I don''t know how strong Turks were in those years. Now they are just defeated generals of Datang!"


    The face of the envoy of Tuyuhun changed. The Turks were the overlord of the western regions. The Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks three years ago and captured the Turk Khan Jieli Khan, which shocked the whole western regions.


    Only when Tuyuhun occupied the special geographical advantage of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau did he dare to have confidence without fear, but Rao was so. Every time he plundered property and went away, he did not dare to stimulate Datang too much.


    "Heaven Khan calms his anger."


    The Tubo messenger suddenly stepped out and said.


    "The so-called fair lady, the gentleman is good, the king and the snow princess are the same age, men and women. If we can promote this beautiful marriage, increase the trust of the two countries and eliminate the war between the two countries, wouldn''t it be a good story for thousands of years."


    When the Tubo emissary said something, all the courtiers frowned. The Tubo emissary was obviously helpful. In fact, it conveyed a heavy fact like the courtiers. Tubo was on the side of Tuyuhun.


    Tuyuhun and Tubo are located on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau. If the two countries keep watch and help each other, Datang will face a lot of dangers.


    According to the idea of Datang before, it is to pull one by one, and now the two countries join hands, I''m afraid Datang''s wishful thinking will fail. If you really want to fight, Datang will fight on two lines and directly face the soldiers of the two countries. At that time, it''s hard to say the victory or defeat.


    The whole courtier was suddenly gloomy. It seems that the form is not good!


    Tuyuhun and Tubo envoys smiled at each other. They were sure of the pulse of the Tang Dynasty and dared to be so confident. Although Tubo and Tuyuhun were not as powerful as Turks, the two countries jointly occupied the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, which was enough to make up for the shortage of troops.


    "Looking forward to heaven Khan''s consideration, the king''s son has heard that the beauty of snow princess is unparalleled. He has long wanted and admired it. This matter has been widely spread in all parts of Tuyuhun. If he can make peace with snow princess, he will certainly be able to return to the grassland. All ministries will also look forward to heaven Khan''s consent." the envoy of Tuyuhun said both hard and soft.


    Suddenly, the whole court hesitated. War was the most expensive behavior. It seemed that the Tang Dynasty had achieved great results in conquering Turks, but in fact, it also killed thousands of enemies and lost more than 68%. The war horses alone lost more than 60%, and the rest of the food and grass consumption was not counted.


    Tuyuhun is not much weaker than Turks, and with Tubo behind it, I''m afraid it will be difficult to predict the outcome if the war starts again.


    "Tell your majesty, it would be a good thing if you could make friends with the two countries. However, Princess Changle is still young, and it would be a good thing if there were other candidates." Wang Yushi played. Princess Changle is Li Shimin''s darling. Of course, Princess Changle can''t go to make peace. According to the Convention, suitable candidates are generally selected from the daughters of the imperial clan.


    For a while, the courtiers talked, and the whole courtiers agreed that there were many people on this side.


    Even the messenger of Tuyuhun hesitated. Of course, they knew the status of Princess Changle. It was almost impossible to take the first princess. The reason why he spoke so loudly was just to get more benefits.


    At this time, a young voice sounded from behind everyone.


    "The minister is against reconciliation!"


    Merton stepped out in high spirits and said loudly.

 Chapter 299

    "How did he go to court today!"


    The whole courtier was stunned and stared at the young man, who was Merton.


    Although Merton is a marquis, he is young after all. Without the emperor''s call, he generally won''t go to the court. Seeing that he will succeed in making a marriage, no one thought that the Mohist school would have trouble here.


    "Merton, do you know what you''re talking about?" the king''s censor saw that it was Merton, and immediately became angry. It would be a great achievement for him to promote reconciliation and friendship between Tuyuhun and Datang.


    "I''m against reconciliation!" Merton repeated word by word.


    Many officials could not help but frown. In this era, it is common to make peace. Even many military generals believe that this kind of thing is the most cost-effective thing.


    "Hahaha, I originally wanted to promote this beautiful thing to the king, but I didn''t expect your country to disagree. In that case, I made it clear that unless Princess ice and snow is reconciled with the king''s son, other princesses will not succeed." seeing this, the messenger Tuyuhun turned his eyes and took the opportunity to threaten.


    "Merton, do you know that if the two countries fight together, life will be ruined and you will be a sinner for thousands of years."


    Seeing this, Wang Yushi couldn''t help but get angry in his heart. After such a stir in the Mohist school, he saw that the marriage he was going to make suddenly came to naught.


    Merton sneered. Tuyuhun didn''t intend to reconcile at all, but Merton clearly remembered that in history, the Tang Dynasty had promised to make peace with the king''s son, and then Tuyuhun intensified and plundered the two states again.


    "Peace depends on the swords and shields of Tang soldiers, not on a woman who makes her bear humiliation and commit herself to a jackal. If peace is obtained by a woman''s body, what''s the use of me, Tang man!" Merton said angrily.


    Merton Merton''s words immediately made the Manchu officials blush. They were impassioned and closed their mouth about national interests, but they never considered their feelings as a friendly woman.


    At the moment, Merton''s sentence directly pierced the window paper, making this fact bloody in front of everyone.


    Wang Yushi''s face turned red and argued: "peace and marriage have existed since ancient times. Zhaojun went out of the fortress and left the pass alone. I have had no trouble in China for 60 years. The people live and work in peace and contentment. Zhaojun''s name is passed down in history. It''s an unparalleled story. You should interpret peace and marriage with such a dirty thought. It''s like deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors."


    Merton sneered, "what about sixty years later?"


    Wang Yushi immediately choked. After 60 years of Zhaojun''s exile, it was naturally a resurgence of border diseases, but it was very cost-effective for a woman to exchange 60 years of peace, but such words could only be understood and could not be said in public.


    "Everyone knows that making peace is to eliminate border problems, but he doesn''t know that the princess who made peace in the past dynasties ended up very miserable. Looking at the princess who made peace in the history books of the past dynasties, his end can be described as extremely miserable, of which more than half of them died young." Merton''s voice was sad.


    "My family married me to the heaven and entrusted me to the Wusun king of a foreign country. The vault house is the room, the felt is the wall, the meat is the food, and the cheese is the pulp. I often think of my heart, and I am willing to return to my hometown for the yellow swan." as soon as Merton published this poem, all the courtiers burst into Hao Ran. Everyone knew that it was a poem by Princess Xijun of the Han Dynasty. Princess Xijun married Wusun far away, and died in a foreign land when she was young.


    "The other surviving princesses are even more miserable. Historical records once recorded:" the marriage customs of all parts of the grassland, including the death of the father, the death of the wife, the stepmother and the death of the brother, all marry their wife. This marriage method is a heinous crime in the Tang Dynasty. Such a crime contrary to human relations, we are deeply taught by the sage. How can we have the heart to push a woman into a heinous crime. " Merton said sarcastically.


    The minister in the court immediately blushed with shame. According to the marriage customs of all parts of the grassland, how could the courtiers not know that the Tang Dynasty thought it was a kingdom of heaven and etiquette, and it was really not a gentleman to let a woman endure such humiliation.


    Wang Yushi was tongue tied and tried to refute several times, but he couldn''t say anything. From the perspective of the princess, this is indeed the cruelest thing in the world. It can be said that the princesses married to the grassland either go to death or live rather than die.


    "The peace gained by pushing a woman into a desperate situation is unacceptable to Weichen," Merton said firmly.


    "I am against reconciliation!" Merton said proudly again.


    "Please forgive me that the old minister can''t accept the peace exchanged with a woman''s body." Qin Qiong was the first to stand up and support Merton.


    "Your Majesty, Tuyuhun has repeatedly violated the border. Our officers and men of the Tang Dynasty have been very angry for a long time. Countless people have asked for war. If we make a peace, I''m afraid we will disappoint the officers and men of the border crossing!" Cheng Yaojin also shouted. When it comes to war, he is a militant.


    "The courtiers are against peace and marriage!" suddenly the wind direction of the whole courtiers changed, and almost most of the courtiers are against peace and marriage.


    The military attache opposed the marriage because the men in the army were bloody. The civil minister opposed the marriage because of morality. After all, it made a woman fall into an unforgivable crime, and no one wanted to be so infamous.


    Moreover, in terms of strength, Datang''s strength is far above Tuyuhun, and even the grassland overlord Turks are defeated in Datang''s hands, let alone Tuyuhun.


    The reason why people agreed to make peace with each other before was that they wanted to solve the border problems in the simplest way. However, Merton''s words at the moment immediately plunged everyone into moral torture. Naturally, no one supported making peace with each other.


    The messenger of Tuyuhun was stunned. He didn''t expect that the upcoming marriage would be stirred up by a teenager.


    "Tuyuhun is holding peace talks in good faith. You are not afraid of the war between the two countries and the loss of life." Tuyuhun''s envoy shouted.


    Merton snorted coldly: "Friends come with good wine, jackals come with long guns! If Tuyuhun comes with peace and sincerity, Mo will certainly entertain him with the best solution to thousands of worries. Tuyuhun deceives me. Datang is kind and has repeatedly violated the border. How can our Datang suffer such humiliation? Don''t you know that our Datang territory is ten times better than its territory, its population is ten times better than its population, and its food and grass are ten times better than its. Tuyuhun will lose in the war between the two countries."


    The envoy of Tuyuhun looked flustered and said strongly, "Tuyuhun has 400000 people who control strings. Once the war starts, the winner is still unknown."


    Merton said coldly: "All the people in Tuyuhun are soldiers. They herd horses in peacetime and serve as soldiers in wartime. Maybe there are 400000 men like you. However, according to my statistics, every time Tuyuhun invades the border, it is because these soldiers are young and need to graze in spring and summer. I only need to send troops to fight in spring and summer for three years at most. Tuyuhun must have no grazing, the grassland is deserted, and cattle and sheep die Absolutely. Over time, Tuyuhun will break through. "


    As soon as Merton said this, Tuyuhun turned pale. This is indeed Tuyuhun''s death. If Datang decides to attack Tuyuhun, Tuyuhun may not be Datang''s opponent.


    The messenger of Tuyuhun couldn''t help looking for help to the Tubo messenger on the side, but he didn''t know that Merton''s eyes had been staring at the Tubo messenger on the side. Suddenly, the Tubo messenger''s heart was cold.


    What Merton said is Tuyuhun''s weakness, and Tubo is not so.


    When the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty saw Merton''s speechless remarks about the envoys of Tubo and Tuyuhun, he couldn''t help but praise them in his heart.


    "It''s quite vertical and horizontal."

 Chapter 300

    Vertical and horizontal!


    He is a disciple of GUI GuZi. It is said that there are only two disciples in the past dynasties, one vertical and one horizontal. Once angry, the princes are afraid, and living in peace makes the world prosperous.


    The most famous are su Qin and Zhang Yi. Su Qin is vertical, Zhang Yi is horizontal, the horizontal is the emperor of Qin, and the vertical is the king of Chu.


    In the pre-Qin period, Su and Qin traveled around the world and advocated to unite the six countries to resist Qin! And finally formed a vertical alliance, served as "Cong Chang", and admired the seal of the six countries, so that Qin did not dare to go out of Hangu pass in the 15th year of Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Yi advocated Lian Heng, served as the Prime Minister of the state of Qin, sent envoys to lobby the countries, broke the vertical and attacked from far to near.


    At present, Datang is like the Qin Dynasty in those days. It is the most powerful country around. If you want to really fight, Tuyuhun is Datang''s opponent. Now Datang clearly has an advantage, but he wants Datang to exchange women for peace. Merton is young and frivolous, so naturally he can''t swallow this evil spirit.


    "I Tuyuhun came here with peace sincerity, but Datang is so insincere. I hope you don''t regret it!" Tuyuhun''s envoy said.


    "Datang has always advocated peace. Tuyuhun has repeatedly violated the border and does not want to repent. Unless Fu Yun personally comes to Chang''an to apologize, he will wait for Datang''s officers and men to seek justice in person."


    Li Shimin was furious when he heard the speech. Princess Changle was his favorite daughter, and Tuyuhun not only repeatedly violated the border, but also put forward such conditions. It was like looking for death.


    "Tian Khan..." the envoy of Tuyuhun was shocked and looked at Li Shimin in disbelief. According to his understanding of the Tang Dynasty, this marriage is a sure thing. I didn''t think it would be reduced to such a degree.


    "If the two countries had not fought, I would have beheaded you and sent someone to drive the messenger Tuyuhun out of the Tai Chi hall!" Li Shimin shouted flatly.


    "Yes!"


    Immediately, the two palace guards jumped out and drove the messenger Tuyuhun out of the hall directly.


    "Tubo also wants to marry?" Li Shimin said coldly to Tubo''s special envoy.


    At this time, all the ministers in the hall immediately focused on the Tubo emissary.


    As soon as the Tibetan emissary changed his look, he hurriedly said, "Tubo is naturally willing to make friends with the Tang Dynasty forever, but whether to make peace or not depends on Tian Khan."


    At this time, Li Shimin was angry. The Tubo emissary did not dare to stimulate Li Shimin even if he had no eyes.


    The Tubo emissary was quite knowledgeable. Li Shimin''s face slowed down and his anger subsided slightly.


    Seeing this, the Tubo emissary quickly took the opportunity to say, "Tuyuhun is ambitious. If Datang and Tuyuhun fight, Tubo is willing to help Datang."


    "Seriously?" the man Dynasty was overjoyed.


    At that time, Merton frowned. As the saying goes, you can''t get up early without profit. He didn''t believe that Tubo unconditionally helped Datang.


    Sure enough, I saw the Tubo emissary then say, "my king ordered me to come to the country. First, I begged for mercy and marriage. Second, I have long heard that the ink skills of the Mohist School in the Tang Dynasty are amazing. My king yearns for it. As long as Tian Khan agrees to teach Tubo ink skills, Tubo will certainly stand on the side of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Ink skill!" suddenly the whole courtiers were in an uproar. No one thought that the Tubo messenger should put forward such a request. Suddenly, everyone couldn''t help looking at Merton. Of course, if you want to talk about ink skill, you have to find Merton.


    Many people are happy. No one thought that it would turn around like this. As long as Mohist Zi spits out his promise, Datang will easily get a big help.


    The Tubo emissary bowed to the Mohist School and said, "this must be the famous Mohist Lord of the Tang Dynasty. Mohist Lord also repaired hundreds of schools and led the recovery of Mohist school. Little envoy Lu Dongzan is also well-known in Tubo. I hope Mohist Lord will give me advice."


    "Ludongzan!" Merton shrunk his eyes. He didn''t expect that the Tubo messenger in front of him was ludongzan, the famous Tubo Prime Minister of later generations.


    According to historical records, although he was illiterate, he was extremely intelligent. The strength of Tubo depended entirely on his own creation.


    Merton took a deep breath and was surprised. He didn''t expect that he was so sharp that he even stared at the Mohist ink technique.


    Li Shimin turned his head and said, "Merton, ink technology is owned by the Mohist school. How do you decide?"


    Thanks to the magical performance of Mohism in the past year, Li Shimin has seen the power of ink technology. Otherwise, Li Shimin would not have personally asked Merton for his opinions.


    The Minister of the Manchu Dynasty immediately disagreed. The conditions of Tubo are extremely relaxed. It''s a cost-effective thing to get Tubo''s help only with the ink skills of the Mohist school without spending a penny.


    Merton immediately fell into a dilemma. Of course, he knew the value of ink technology. The reason why Tubo was strong in history was that Princess Wencheng brought a lot of agricultural books and medical skills, and even hundreds of craftsmen, which greatly increased Tubo''s strength and became the biggest cancer of the whole Tang Dynasty.


    If Tubo really want to get ink skills, I''m afraid it will be more terrible than in history. What''s funny is that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have a complacent face, as if they think that the Tang Dynasty has been so cheap. Even Li Shimin''s face can''t help flashing a look of expectation.


    Merton thought a little and thought of an excellent rejection idea. He shook his head and said, "Mohist ink technology will only benefit Datang and will never serve any other country at any time."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding when he heard the speech. Although Merton didn''t act according to his wishes, he was very pleased with his answer.


    Lu Dongzan frowned and said, "I''ve heard that Mohism advocates universal love and non aggression! Don''t the people of Tubo deserve universal love from Mohism? Doesn''t Mohism mean that the people of the two countries will always be good together by spreading Mohism skills?"


    Ludongzan obviously had already studied Mohist ideas, and his answers were in order. Even many ministers nodded and praised for a while.


    Merton sighed in his heart. He is worthy of being a famous figure in history. It is really very difficult.


    However, Merton was prepared and said, "the Mohists advocate universal love for non attack and help the weak. However, the countries have been in war for years, and the people are becoming more and more difficult. Therefore, the Mohists changed their way and Qin Mo entered Qin. So far, the world is unified and universal love for non attack."


    Lu Dongzan frowned at the speech and said, "didn''t the Tang Dynasty unify the world?"


    When Merton heard the speech, he suddenly showed an inexplicable smile at the corners of his mouth, opened his hands, stretched out his broad mind, and repeated again: "the world is unified!"


    Lu Dongzan frowned when he heard the speech. He didn''t understand what Merton was doing.


    The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked. They were surprised. They didn''t expect that the Mohist school had such ambition. Of course, this world is not the world of the Tang Dynasty. It is estimated that the whole world.


    Merton sneered: "if Tubo obeys the Tang Dynasty, there will be no war between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo. The ink will naturally enter Tubo, spread ink technology and love all sentient beings."


    Lu Dongzan suddenly understood what Merton meant. He couldn''t help but look blue. He didn''t think he was fooled by a teenager.


    "I came from Tubo in good faith. I didn''t expect that Datang would bully me like this. The war between the two countries will rise again in the future. Please don''t forget today."


    Lu Dongzan left angrily, and the whole Tai Chi hall was suddenly silent.

 Chapter 301

    "The Mohist family, you are so bold that you let the Tang Dynasty fight against the two countries one day. If the border trouble rises again, the Mohist family will be the culprit." Wang Yushi blushed and said angrily.


    "The officials impeached the Mohists for deceiving the king and for their own self-interest, and provoked the crime of border trouble without authorization." suddenly, many imperial historians followed suit to impeach Merton.


    For a moment, many literary ministers accused Merton one after another, as if Merton had committed some heinous crime.


    Morton sneered at the speech and said, "it''s nonsense! Two robbers robbed one''s wife, daughter and finance. If he didn''t give it, he would become a sinner. Isn''t that a big joke?"


    "I dare to ask Shangshu to infer whether this person is guilty!" Merton asked Li daozong, the Shangshu of the Ministry of punishment.


    Hearing the speech, Li daozong nodded without hesitation and said, "this inference is naturally innocent."


    Merton''s opposition to marriage can be said to have indirectly helped Li daozong. He and his own experience are the daughters of the clan, and his daughter of Li daozong is also on the list. If he puts his daughter into such a humiliating dilemma, he, as a father, may regret for life.


    Merton made it impossible for the Tang Dynasty to marry again. It can be said that he helped Li daozong a lot. Li daozong will naturally throw a peach in return.


    Wang Yushi was angry and said angrily, "this is a state affair. How can it be generalized with other things? If the two countries unite, there will be no peace at the border of Datang."


    Hearing the speech, Cheng Yaojin showed his strong teeth and shouted, "if the two countries don''t know good or bad, 100000 Tang soldiers are not furnishings, and you don''t have to go to the battlefield. You''re afraid of a ball!"


    "Don''t be afraid, Mr. Cheng. Don''t talk about it with blood!" the imperial censor Wang was so angry that his nose was crooked. "The war must be a heavy death and injury. If we can solve the border problems at a very small cost and save the people from the war, it will be a great gospel for the Tang Dynasty. The Mohist school not only cherishes itself, but also verbally provokes Tubo."


    Wang Yushi''s words were immediately approved by many courtiers. What if Mohism sacrificed a little for the national interest.


    Merton sneered, "a small price? Take care of yourself? It''s a joke because you never understand how powerful ink technology is.


    Ink technology can make the chickens and ducks of Datang flock together, naturally it can also make the cattle and sheep of Tubo everywhere, double the grain of Datang, naturally it can also make the warehouse full of Tubo sorghum, ink technology can double the steel production of Datang, and naturally it can also make Tubo iron rampant.


    If Tubo gets ink technology, its national strength will increase tenfold. At that time, Tubo, with sufficient food and advanced weapons and on the plateau, will be the biggest enemy of Datang. "


    Merton was indignant that advanced technology was the most powerful weapon for China to fight against all barbarians, and these sour scholars wanted to give away the greatest advantage of the Central Plains. How short-sighted.


    In history, Tubo was brought all kinds of advanced technologies by Princess Wencheng, which doubled its national strength. However, Princess Wencheng, which was used by the Tang Dynasty to be complacent, tasted the bitter consequences for the later rulers of the Tang Dynasty. Even Tubo cut off the Silk Road and once hit Chang''an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.


    So that it would not help to send the princess and relatives later. It would only double the humiliation!


    The courtiers shuddered when they heard what Merton said. At this time, they suddenly found that since the ink technology everywhere in the Mohist school had such great power, they almost made such a big mistake.


    Wang Yushi still shouted: "it''s just alarmism to escape the responsibility of provoking border trouble without authorization."


    "What Merton said is correct, and Tubo is indeed the heart of the Tang Dynasty." unexpectedly, Li Jing suddenly stepped out to support Merton.


    There was a sudden silence in the whole court. If others said, Li Shimin might not think so, but Li Jing is not. As the military God of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing''s military strategy is recognized by everyone. No one thought that he should publicly support Merton.


    "Li Aiqing is serious about this?" Li Shimin frowned. In his opinion, Tuyuhun, West Turk and Koguryo are the major troubles of the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Jing nodded slowly and said, "yes, after the Turks were defeated by our Datang, our biggest opponent in the future is not Tuyuhun, nor Koguryo, but Tubo on the plateau."


    "Does Lord Li think highly of Tubo, a small barbarian country, how it can threaten the strength of the Tang Dynasty?" Linghu dehu, the Minister of rites, wondered.


    One of the most important functions of the Ministry of rites is to shoulder the diplomacy of the Tang Dynasty. It is usually the Ministry of rites that comes forward when dealing with foreign countries. To be honest, the Ministry of rites does not pay much attention to Tubo.


    "As the saying goes, there is only a thousand years of being a thief, but there is no thousand years of anti thief. Tubo has a unique terrain. Even Lord mohou''s offer to alleviate the plateau reaction does not have much effect. Tubo has the ability to attack Datang, but Datang can''t do any effective counterattack against Tubo and can only be beaten passively." Li Jing analyzed.


    Li Shimin immediately frowned. In the face of an opponent who couldn''t fight back, he couldn''t see how difficult it was. This is also the reason why he wanted to appease Tubo.


    Li Jing also said: "I heard that the new Tubo Zanpu was a young talent like Lord mo. he succeeded Zanpu at the age of 13 and was 16. He had unified the Tubo plateau. In this way, Tubo must become stronger and stronger day by day. Looking at the history books, after which barbarians did not unify the ministries, they began to covet the Central Plains."


    Once Li Jing was analyzed, everyone couldn''t help nodding. In this way, Tubo can''t be underestimated.


    "Tuyuhun Fuyun is old. Koguryo is weak and his officials are strong. Western Turks are far away from the western desert. Only Tubo''s young leader has a booming national strength. Therefore, Weichen agrees with Merton that Tubo will become a great danger in the future." Li Jing asserted.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing. Li Jing is worthy of being the military God of the Tang Dynasty. He can see the form of the Tang Dynasty at a glance, and the analysis is very in place.


    Many courtiers suddenly felt Hao Ran. If Merton had not strongly opposed it, they would have almost trained the most powerful opponent for the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Shimin was also a fluke in his heart. The messenger Tuyuhun looked modest but actually cunning. He was almost deceived by him.


    "Don''t mention the issue of reconciliation in the future. The etiquette department will pay close attention to the trend of Tubo in the future and report any changes immediately." Li Shimin shouted.


    "Yes!" Linghu de Ying said.


    The civil servants could not help but feel dejected. In this way, I''m afraid that the war in the Tang Dynasty will start again and the military generals will be strong. That''s not a good thing for the civil servants. Moreover, the war will cost countless money. It is reasonable to say that the most objectionable should be the Minister of the Ministry of the people, Dai Zhou, but Dai Zhou was determined by the old God and said nothing.


    He didn''t know that Tuyuhun''s move could be said to have cut off the silk road. The Ministry of the people had just obtained great benefits from the silk road. Naturally, Tuyuhun attached great importance to the smoothness of the commercial road. It can be said that Tuyuhun infringed on the interests of the Ministry of the people at the same time.


    If Tuyuhun is not taught a lesson, the business route will be threatened again in the future.


    Seeing that the general situation had been decided, the king immediately felt like a funeral and farted: "the matter of marriage is cut off. I''m afraid there will be no peace at the border of Datang."


    "Your Majesty, think twice!" many courtiers also made suggestions one after another. Harmony is the most important form of communication between the Central Plains Dynasty and the surrounding countries. If harmony is cut off, the Tang Dynasty may be like a blind man to all parts of the grassland.


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help shouting, "I Tang is a great country. How can I give in to barbarians? I Tang''s iron bones are clanking. I should be proud of the world with integrity. I don''t make peace with relatives, make compensation, cede land or pay tribute. The ministers guard the country, and the king dies. If there is a war, the Mohists are willing to go to the front line and kill the enemy for the country."

 Chapter 302

    "No peace, no compensation, no land cutting, no tribute! Ministers guard the country, and the king dies!"


    Li Shimin was shocked when he heard the speech, and his eyes were shining. He immediately shouted, "this is the integrity of the Tang Dynasty. From now on, this scrupulous speech will be the ancestor''s motto of the Tang Dynasty and the rule for emperors to act!"


    The generals of the Manchu Dynasty immediately shouted in unison, "the ministers will wrap up their bodies and guard the gate for your majesty."


    Li Shimin said solemnly, "in this way, I will entrust my family and life to you."


    In the Tai Chi hall, a solemn ceremony of trust between kings and officials suddenly appeared. Merton''s words are burning, but everyone knows that it may cost a lot to reach this point, but these people are duty bound to turn back.


    After a long time, the atmosphere in the Tai Chi hall was slightly gentle.


    Linghu Deyu stepped out and said, "once the marriage is cut off, Datang and the surrounding countries will lose their checks and balances, but I''m afraid there will be constant border problems after Datang!"


    The ministers realized that if the marriage was cut off, the Tang Dynasty lacked effective means to check and balance the surrounding countries. I''m afraid there would be four border diseases! Although Datang is not afraid of war, wars and chaos are everywhere in the surrounding countries. Even if Datang wins, I''m afraid it will suffer heavy losses. This is not the way in the long run.


    Wang Yushi immediately showed a sarcastic way on his face: "you have to tie the bell to solve the bell. Since Lord Mo first discussed not to make a marriage, there must be a way to solve this hidden danger."


    The Manchu civil and military immediately focused on Merton. Unconsciously, the people in the hall paid more and more attention to Merton''s suggestions, and Merton never let them down.


    Merton sneered when he heard the speech: "looking at the history books, which two countries in the world will be friends forever. Even Zhaojun''s exit from the fortress is only 50 or 60 years of peace. Since women can''t complete the task of peace between the two countries, let''s go to men."


    As soon as Merton said this, all the people in the court were as if they were strangled by the neck. They all stared at Merton and looked at Merton with abnormal eyes one by one. Among them, Cheng Yaojin winked and looked at Merton with an exaggerated and strange expression.


    Wang yushidun was pale with anger and angrily scolded: "the Mohist family is simply not a son of man. He has such a dirty idea that he plays the crime of great disrespect of the Mohist family."


    Li Shimin was also covered with black lines and looked at Merton with a look of grief.


    There were even many ministers who understood it. A pair of fellow Chinese looked at Merton, and Merton got goose bumps.


    Merton looked around and said innocently, "in the pre-Qin period, which envoy was not a man? In those days, Su Qin Zhang Yi was vertical and horizontal, maneuvering, and which was not a man of the moment."


    The Minister of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly realized that the original proposal of the Mohist school was to reuse the strategists. Looking at Merton''s innocent eyes, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help looking ashamed. It turned out that they were dirty and crooked.


    Wang Yushi blushed with shame. Among the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty, only he opened his mouth to refute Merton. Isn''t he the only one who exposed his dirty thoughts.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Wang Yushi immediately gnawed his teeth and hated Merton who made a fool of himself.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved. During the Warring States period, strategists were brilliant. If there was a figure comparable to Su Qin Zhang Yi in the Tang Dynasty, it would surely make the border of the Tang Dynasty stable.


    "One faction is vertical and horizontal, and one minister is responsible for two masters. Even if he is eloquent, he can''t bear the important task." the Royal historian was angry and retorted loudly.


    Many civil servants also nodded one after another. Confucianism attaches the most importance to loyalty and believes in one minister without two masters. Naturally, it despises the daily behavior of the vertical and horizontal school, which is also the reason for the decline of the theory of the vertical and horizontal school.


    Merton said, "which of Zhang Jian''s envoys to the western regions, ban Chao, has made no more contributions than his relatives."


    The king immediately concluded.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding. Who can say that Zhang Jian and ban Chao didn''t use vertical and horizontal skills, and both made great achievements.


    Merton proposed: "Tell your majesty, learning is good or bad, and vertical and horizontal skills can naturally be used by our Tang Dynasty. The imperial court can specially select some loyal children to specialize in vertical and horizontal skills. Once they learn them, they can go to the surrounding countries. In this way, they can solve the problem of vertical and horizontal dynasties and Chu, reproduce the style of vertical and horizontal schools, declare their interests to the surrounding countries and publicize the way of the prosperity of our Tang Dynasty, such as In this way, we must be able to conquer the world and respect the world. This is the way to solve the border problems of the Tang Dynasty, rather than pinning it on a woman. "


    As soon as Li Shimin''s eyes lit up, the powerful power of the vertical and horizontal technique had long been confirmed in the Warring States period. Merton proposed such a method, which not only solved the disadvantages of the vertical and horizontal strategists, but also gave full play to the power of the vertical and horizontal technique, which is much better than harmony.


    Wang Yushi retorted: "the vertical and horizontal faction was only very prominent in the pre-Qin period. It was the Warring States period. The seven heroes were all descendants of the Chinese people and had the same root and origin. Now the Tang Dynasty is facing the barbarian country. How can we talk about the barbarian country?"


    In his opinion, the reason why the vertical and horizontal faction can be so brilliant is that the seven heroes of the Warring States period have the same root and origin, so they have a place to use. How can the barbarian country listen to your empty words and white teeth? Where is beauty and property.


    Merton said, "there is no eternal friend between countries, only eternal interests. The intersection of Datang with the surrounding countries is naturally the place where countries need Datang. When one faction goes to other countries, it naturally represents the will of Datang and seeks the common interests of the two countries. As long as interests exist, the two countries will naturally maintain peace."


    "What if the interests are not there or endanger the interests of Datang?" Li Shimin asked.


    Merton said coldly, "then the Tang Dynasty will unite vertically and horizontally to check and balance its country, leaving it helpless. Come and apologize!"


    The Minister of Manchu Dynasty suddenly felt a chill in his heart. If the Tang Dynasty can really reach such a point, it will be a powerful force to subdue the world.


    "If necessary, one hundred thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will be able to safeguard the interests of the Tang Dynasty." Merton said coldly.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. He was never a passive victim. The alliance of Weishui was a disgrace to him all his life. In only three years, Li Shimin killed the East Turks and took revenge with one arrow.


    "What do you think of Linghu Aiqing?" Li Shimin turned to Linghu Dehui and asked.


    "Wei Chen thinks this party is good!"


    The Honglu Temple of the Ministry of rites is responsible for the diplomatic work of the Tang Dynasty. At ordinary times, it only receives envoys from various countries, and its power is very small. If according to Merton, the power of the Ministry of rites must be greatly increased, how can Linghu be unwilling.


    Moreover, it is no longer possible to break up the marriage, so there is only the use of vertical and horizontal skills.


    "OK, I''ll leave this matter to the etiquette department. Remember the selected people, loyalty first." Li Shimin ordered.


    "Obey the holy command!" Linghu de Ying said.


    The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could not help sighing. In this way, it has become inevitable for the vertical and horizontal faction to reappear in the political arena. Among the hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period, another hundred theories rose in the Tang Dynasty. All these changes began with the Mohist School.

 Chapter 303

    "Inform your majesty that the training of Honglu temple is not accomplished overnight. The most important thing at present is the trouble at the edge of Tuyuhun. Your majesty asked king voyun of Tuyuhun to come to apologize. Based on the old minister''s understanding of King voyun of Tuyuhun, the old thief must refuse again. I hope your majesty will break it early." Linghu De, the Minister of rites, said.


    Li Shimin also immediately pondered that it was not once or twice that Fu Yun claimed to be ill and did not come to Chang''an city to pay tribute. It is very likely that what Linghu Deyu said may occur.


    "If Fu Yun doesn''t know how to be funny, don''t blame me for being impolite in Datang." Li Shimin said fiercely, "order all departments in Longyou to fight back immediately if Tuyuhun dares to offend again."


    Since Datang defeated the East Turks, Datang has defeated its biggest enemy, and few neighboring countries dare to challenge Datang''s bottom line.


    Tuyuhun jumped out first to die. Li Shimin didn''t mind making an example.


    "Yes!" Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of war, replied.


    Merton couldn''t help looking at heizhuang''s Hou Junji. He couldn''t help sighing that he was born recklessly, but he was able to achieve the position of the Minister of war. I can imagine how much he was favored by Li Shimin in Li Shimin.


    However, Merton is well aware that this person is extremely greedy for money. Hou Junji is one of the secret people who covet Mohist ink skills.


    "Property!"


    Merton had an idea and suddenly stepped out and said, "tell your majesty, Tuyuhun is a nomadic people. He has no fixed place to live. He lives by water and grass. If the border troops attack, Tuyuhun will be far away. If he doesn''t kill the snake, he will be hurt."


    Li Shimin nodded, which was also the biggest headache for the grassland departments of all dynasties. Once the army of the Central Plains Dynasty attacked, the grassland departments would flee away. Once the army retreated, these grassland departments would invade the border again, and so on.


    "Wei Chen thinks that if you want to fight, you must fight! It is bound to defeat Tuyuhun in one fell swoop and avoid future trouble." Merton said in a calm voice.


    Suddenly, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Merton as inconceivably. No one thought that it was the Mohist school, which has always opposed the war, who advocated to take the lead in the war.


    People couldn''t help thinking of Merton''s radical proposition just now that the world is unified and both love and non attack. It seems that the Mohist school took the road of Qin mo.


    "Yellow mouth child, open mouth and close mouth war, do you know how cruel war is? I really don''t know whether you are a newborn calf, not afraid of tigers or not." Hou Junji snorted coldly.


    He has long been envious of the ink skills of the Mojia village. He has already hinted at the Mojia village several times, but Merton has been pretending to be deaf and dumb and has been dead to report the ink skills. If he hadn''t scruples about Zhenglong, the Holy Family of Mozi, he would have robbed it.


    "It is well known that Mohism believes in universal love and non aggression, and you Mohism should take the initiative to start a war. I''m afraid it''s hard to predict whether Mohism is a blessing or a curse in your hands." Leng hum, the Royal historian of the king.


    For a while, the generals and civil servants who agreed with Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of war, accused Merton of provoking border trouble without authorization.


    Facing the opposition of the Manchu Dynasty, Merton said, "the world says that Mohism advocates non attack, but I don''t know that Mohism''s attack is unique. Mohism opposes unjust war, not war. Tuyuhun invades the border of the Tang Dynasty, robs the property of the Tang Dynasty and plunders the border people. How can he not repay such a great revenge."


    People remembered that during the Warring States period, Mohism was indispensable in any war. Mohist attack was famous.


    Merton went on to say, "we in the Tang Dynasty should not only completely defeat Tuyuhun, but even follow the example of the previous dynasty and set Tuyuhun as a county under the rule."


    During the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang led an army to defeat Tuyuhun and directly set up Xihai, Heyuan and other counties in Tuyuhun, which were directly incorporated into the territory of the Sui Dynasty.


    "Opening up Xinjiang and expanding territory!" Li Shimin thought. Maybe this time is an opportunity. In the third year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty sent troops to defeat the East Turks. However, in order to appease all parts of the grassland, it did not occupy an inch of land. If it is the same as Yang Guang, it will defeat Tuyuhun and bring it under the rule, it will surely remain famous in history.


    "Your Majesty, the war is going on together, and the people''s lives are ruined!" the Royal historian hurriedly said, "the minister impeached the Mohist son for his own personal interests and provoked the border trouble between the two countries without authorization. His heart is extremely sinister."


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "for one''s own personal gain."


    As soon as Wang Yushi gritted his teeth, he said, "I''ve heard that mojiazi and Princess Changle have had close contacts. Ice cream and the Red Cross are also made by mojiazi. There are differences between monarchs and ministers. I''m afraid it will be criticized for a long time."


    The ministers suddenly realized that it was no wonder that mojiazi wanted to kill Tuyuhun. It was because Tuyuhun toad wanted to eat swan meat and wanted to make the idea of Princess Changle, which angered mojiazi.


    After a little thought, the ministers suddenly felt that this possibility was very great. It was common for young men and girls to love each other. I''m afraid that only for this reason can we explain why the Mohist school, who has always been as slippery as a catfish, is so abnormal today. He stirred Huang and his relatives with his own strength and insisted on putting Tuyuhun to death.


    Many courtiers were surprised to grow up. They didn''t expect to hear such hot news. Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton with admiration and even secretly gave Merton a thumbs up.


    Li Shimin suddenly turned black and couldn''t help looking angrily at Merton. Whoever knows that the boy will hit his daughter''s attention again, I''m afraid he also has the impulse to break his leg.


    "Princess Changle?"


    Merton was stunned and couldn''t help laughing bitterly. This time, she was a disaster. She couldn''t help showing the figure of a little bean sprout with a thick voice pretending to be a man. As a talent with higher education in the 21st century, she certainly despised this kind of criminal behavior, but he never thought of that idea.


    But if you tell Li Shimin directly that I''m not interested in your daughter, I''m afraid it''s possible to break my leg.


    Merton immediately shouted, "Weichen''s move is not selfish, but for the sake of my foundation of the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin''s face slowed slightly and said, "Oh! Let''s hear it. If the explanation doesn''t work, don''t blame my men for being ruthless."


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "first, Tuyuhun is close to the Hexi corridor. If Tuyuhun is allowed to invade the border frequently, I''m afraid the silk road will be cut off in the future."


    "The Ministry of the people and the Si Nong Temple support Lord Mo''s remarks," said Su Lingnong, the great Si Nong, and Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of the people.


    However, the Ministry of civil affairs got a lot of benefits from the western regions event and collected huge taxes. If the silk road is blocked and Hu merchants are cut off, it will certainly cause a lot of losses to the Tang Dynasty.


    In addition, Dasi Nong is preparing to promote cotton in large quantities. In order to ensure the sales of silk, Hu Shang is the top priority of the plan, not to mention all kinds of valuable seeds coming from western countries.

 Chapter 304

    "100000 cattle and horses."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing. The average horse in the Tang Dynasty is about 20 Guan, the good horse is more expensive, and the price of cattle is slightly lower, but it''s not much lower.


    There are nearly 200000 cattle and horses, and they are available every year. This is a lot of wealth. Li Shimin can''t help but feel excited.


    What''s more, Datang has its own horse farm. Qinghai horses are good horses. They are tall and surprisingly heavy. They are good at long-distance attacks. They are the best choice for cavalry. Datang officers and soldiers have always been first-class in weapons, equipment and training quality. The most important reason why they are passive in the face of grassland is that Datang''s horses are mixed, If we can occupy Qinghai, Datang will make up for the last weakness.


    "Yes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. From then on, the military will have no worries about lacking horses." Cheng Yaojin, a militant, immediately shouted excitedly.


    "Qinghai horse is indeed the best choice for cavalry." Li Jing nodded.


    For a moment, the generals of the military headquarters nodded one after another. Even if Hou Junji opposed Merton again, he had to admit that occupying the land of Qinghai was very important for the Tang Dynasty. The military headquarters immediately defected.


    Li Shimin''s eyes at Merton no longer had the impulse to break his legs. Instead, there was an impulse that his mother-in-law liked his son-in-law more and more. Li Shimin quickly resisted this unreasonable impulse and continued to look ferocious.


    Merton said, "third, it''s because of Qinghai Salt Lake."


    "Qinghai Salt Lake?"


    The courtiers were puzzled. Of course, they knew Qinghai Salt Lake. Lake salt is also called pool salt, but the salt there can''t be eaten, and the lake water can''t be drunk and irrigated. It''s of no use at all.


    Merton said proudly, "ink has a skill that can purify lake salt into table salt. Qinghai Lake is vast and everywhere. Lake salt is as common as sediment. Only one salt of Qinghai Lake is enough for the ten thousand years of Datang. Datang gets Qinghai Lake. From then on, Datang will have no worries about lack of salt."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly burst into an uproar. Linghu De, the Minister of rites, was even more excited and said, "is this serious?"


    Other places in Datang don''t mention it, but the land in Guanzhong is unusually short of salt, especially the land in Longyou, which is far away from the salt producing land. If salt can be extracted from Qinghai Lake, it will be a great gospel for the land in Longyou.


    Merton smiled and said, "do you know that Mohist snow salt is refined successfully with this technology!"


    Linghu de Yu frowned and said, "I heard that Mohist snow salt is extracted from coarse salt?"


    "That''s the initial means of this technology. After the unremitting efforts of Mohists, this technology can now directly refine lake salt into Mohist snow salt." Merton said proudly.


    "Snow salt extracted from lake salt?"


    Many courtiers couldn''t help but grow up.


    "Since it''s lake salt, it''s also salt. The reason why it can''t be eaten is that these salts contain other bitter things, and this technique is to extract these bitter things to get edible salt.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help jumping up. In this way, the salt of the whole Qinghai Lake can be eaten after being refined by ink technology. It seems that the value of a Qinghai lake alone is immeasurable.


    The important officials were delighted. The Mohist snow salt has been popular in Chang''an City recently. It is the first-class fine salt in Chang''an city. Everyone knows that Mohist has this ink technology, but they didn''t expect that this technology has such great value.


    "Salt is the foundation of the country and the daily necessities of the people. However, the price of salt is too high, and the people are miserable." Merton couldn''t help looking at the king''s censor. Everyone knows that most of the salt in Yuncheng is controlled by the king''s family in Taiyuan. The King''s family is particularly responsible for the high price of salt.


    "If you use this technology to make salt, the salt production will increase sharply, and they are all first-class and good snow salt. The increase in salt production will greatly reduce the salt price, even to a penny and a kilo. At that time, even ordinary people can enjoy it."


    "A penny and a kilo of salt!" Wang Yushi was suddenly dumbfounded. The biggest source of wealth of the Taiyuan Wang family is selling salt. If the Mohist snow salt can sell a penny and a kilo, I''m afraid the Taiyuan Wang family salt can''t even sell, and the whole Taiyuan Wang family will lose its biggest source of wealth.


    Everyone could not help frowning. If so, I''m afraid the Mohists with ink skills will control the salt of the Tang Dynasty.


    Merton had expected this situation for a long time. He didn''t panic and said, "this ink technique is related to the welfare of the people all over the world. The Mohists dare not hide this technique privately. They are willing to give it to the imperial court."


    "To the imperial court!" Hou Junji immediately lost his blood in his heart. The Mohist family is really a loser. Don''t he know how much profit there is? If he gives it to Hou Junji, he is looking for several aristocratic families to partner and firmly control his interests in his own hands, even the emperor can''t rob it.


    However, Li Shimin understood the intention of Merton''s move and couldn''t help but secretly scold Merton for his cunning. The catfish''s nature was exposed and extremely slippery. He was full of sharp teeth and bit back, which hurt people''s heart. This time, it was the Taiyuan Wang family.


    This salt making method is bound to offend the Taiyuan King''s family whose lifeblood is salt. Obviously, the Mohist family does not want to carry this behemoth, but also wants to revenge the Taiyuan King''s family for repeatedly targeting the Mohist family and simply offering it to the court, so that the court can face the Taiyuan King''s family.


    "Mo Aiqing is dedicated to his country. I thank you for the people all over the world." Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Li Shimin and all officials knew that this was the conspiracy of the Mohist school, but they had to recognize it by pinching their nose. After all, the interests here are too great.


    With this ink technique alone, even if Tuyuhun didn''t commit the border incident, Li Shimin had the impulse to attack Tuyuhun and take Qinghai Lake.


    "Ink technology!"


    Many courtiers could not help but sigh that the Mohist ink technology shocked the whole court again. A simple ink technology could solve the salt shortage history of the northwest and even the whole Tang Dynasty.


    They just wanted to use Mohist ink technology in exchange for Tubo''s support. Now it seems that it is so short-sighted that people can''t help but think of what Merton just said. You don''t understand how powerful ink technology is. Now Merton shows them the powerful power of ink technology with iron facts.


    However, it was not over. Merton then said, "in addition to this time, the Mohists found a fertilizer called chemical fertilizer that can make food high-yield from the extraction of lake salt. If the chemical fertilizer can be extracted, the food output will certainly double to more than eight loads per mu."


    "Ba Dan!" Linghu De Fu trembled in his heart and looked at Merton in disbelief.


    Linghu family is also one of the Guanlong aristocratic family. It is urgent to control the Yellow River. The whole Guanlong aristocratic family is facing a very embarrassing situation. The reclamation of wasteland is limited. The only hope is to increase the yield per mu. The method of Mohist experimental field can double the grain yield, which has made the Guanlong aristocratic family unable to close its mouth.


    No one thought that Mohism would have such ink skills, but the yield per mu was eight Dan, which he never dared to think of..


    Merton nodded: "this ink technology has been successfully tested in Mohist school. At present, some have been refined from Yuncheng pool salt. I''m afraid it will have to wait until the autumn harvest next year. Mo is waiting for you in the Mohist experimental field, but the boy can guarantee that the output is only much more."


    "Let''s go from now on." a group of officials of Guanlong aristocratic family said excitedly.


    The Guanlong aristocratic family occupied most of the court hall. With their support, together with the support of the Ministry of the people and the Si Nong temple, they supported the attack on Tuyuhun. The whole court hall, even the three provinces and six ministries, supported the attack on Tuyuhun,,


    Originally, Datang just wanted to fight back and teach Tuyuhun a lesson, but it turned into a war to destroy the country. All these changes depend on Merton''s own power.


    It is reasonable to say that Merton met with the envoy of Tuyuhun for the first time, but Merton killed him. Isn''t it really because of Princess Changle? In addition, the important minister can''t think of any other reasons.


    Then contact Merton''s dedication of ink technology, there is really a hint of the meaning of giving betrothal gifts. For a moment, the hearts of the ministers turned sharply.

 Chapter 305

    The imperial meeting ended and all officials dispersed.


    But when any official came to mojiazi, he couldn''t help but look at the young man deeply.


    He has been in charge of his family since he was young. Since the rise of Mohism, peace has always been the main thing. Even if he is embarrassed, he also takes the initiative to resolve it. However, today, Merton''s behavior can be said to make important officials know him again.


    Today, Mohist''s counterattack directly determines the fate of a dynasty. At the same time, it has caused heavy losses to the Taiyuan royal family, so that people can''t help but re-examine the power of Mohism.


    To everyone''s surprise, the reason of mojiazi was to be angry with Princess Changle. No matter whether Merton admitted it or not, all officials couldn''t help but recognize this reason and couldn''t think of any other reason.


    "Mo boy, that''s good! It''s quite like my old style." Cheng Yaojin patted Mo Dun heavily, with an expression that I''m optimistic about you.


    "Boy, this is a piece of loyalty to the country, no selfishness, no selfishness." Merton was photographed grinning. At this time, how to say and how wrong, it''s better to pretend to be stupid.


    Wang Yushi just passed by. Hearing the speech, he was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. You mo family have no selfishness. How can you directly suppress the largest source of wealth of the Taiyuan Wang family.


    He didn''t expect that he directly revealed that Merton had been in close contact with Princess Changle, and didn''t bring any harm to the mojiazi, which also attracted a heavy blow from the mojiazi.


    "Although the country is very belligerent, it will perish. The boy is arrogant. He bewitches his majesty to go to war with his own interests. If the life of the Tang Dynasty is ruined, Zhuangzi will be the biggest sinner of the Tang Dynasty." Wang Yushi said angrily.


    "Although the world is safe, forget the danger of war, and the blood of the Tang Dynasty is clanking. How can people be bullied? Boy, I heard that the envoys of Tubo and Tuyuhun came to the Tang Dynasty with a lot of property and lobbying and relatives! Lord Wang worked so hard to shout for the two countries. Could it be good for the two countries?" Merton narrowed his eyes and snapped.


    Tuyuhun messenger Merton was not familiar with it, but Ludong praised such a smart man. Merton didn''t believe he didn''t need to bribe the minister to achieve his goal.


    All the officials were shocked. Merton''s behavior was contrary to that of Princess Changle. What was the reason why the Royal historian strongly supported and friendly to Tubo?


    If people didn''t think that the Tibetan emissary had anything to ask for before, and after Merton showed the power of ink technology, they suddenly realized how sinister Tubo''s intentions were.


    "I just can''t bear the war between the two countries. I''m arrogant. How dare you slander me like this!" the Royal historian of the king flew into a rage as if he had been stabbed in the pain point.


    "Wind, wind! I''ve heard about this as well as the Royal historian. It can''t be true!" Merton laughed and took the opportunity to satirize the Royal historian about his affair with Princess Changle.


    However, Wang Yushi didn''t think so. Did he understand that the Tubo emissary did find him secretly and offered him a lot of money to support Tubo to obtain ink skills.


    Wang Yushi and the Mohists have long had private grievances. In addition, the financial value offered by Tubo is very high. Forcing the Mohists to give ink skills will certainly cause heavy losses to the Mohists. They hit it off immediately. Who could have thought that they were exposed on the spot by Merton.


    "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth!"


    Merton, a small catfish, not only bit the Taiyuan Wang family, but also bit Wang Yushi. No matter whether the king received bribes from the envoys of the two countries or not, what the king did today will certainly make him lose his imperial heart.


    The two fought in one round, and Wang Yushi immediately lost.


    Everyone sighed for a while. No one thought that the mojiazi had grown up to such a point that he could not change his face in the face of the Taiyuan Wang family.


    "Don''t worry, nephew mo. as long as you do it with your heart, you don''t have to think about anything else. I''ll help you settle it. I believe the Taiyuan Wang family will certainly give Guanlong family this face." Linghu de said kindly. In fact, it revealed an amazing information that the Mozi Guanlong aristocratic family Baoding.


    Qinghai Salt Lake is closest to Guanlong. Once chemical fertilizer is produced on a large scale, Guanlong aristocratic family will benefit the most. This is the lifeblood of Guanlong aristocratic family. How can Guanlong aristocratic family sit and watch Merton be suppressed by Taiyuan royal family.


    Wang Yushi couldn''t help but stumble when he heard the speech. Although the Taiyuan Wang family is one of the five Wangs and seven surnames, it is one of them after all. In the face of the huge Guanlong aristocratic family, even the Taiyuan Wang family can only retreat.


    The eldest sun Wuji on one side could not help sighing. Merton worked out a plan to control the Yellow River, which could be described as cutting off the lifeblood of the Guanlong family. He originally thought it would cause the counterattack of the Guanlong family. Who would have thought that a Mohist experimental field would appease the Guanlong family.


    Now, they firmly control the lifeblood of Guanlong family in their own hands. At least before the success of chemical fertilizer, if anyone wants to move the ink family, Guanlong family will be the first to disagree.


    However, this is also a good thing for changsun Wuji. If the chemical fertilizer can be successfully developed, there will be no obstacles to his implementation of the Yellow River treatment method, and the great achievements will be within reach.


    "I''ve heard about it for a long time. The Mohist family has also trained hundreds of schools. It seems that the art of war has become a small success!" Li Jing looked at Merton and couldn''t help praising him. Merton''s confrontation in the whole thatched cottage can be said to have evidence for advance and retreat, and his strategic vision is very accurate. He can predict the great trouble of Tubo in advance, which just coincides with Li Jing.


    It also shows the importance of the land of Qinghai to the Tang Dynasty. All parts of the grassland seem to be scattered. If the Tang Dynasty occupies the grassland, all parts of the grassland will fight back. This is also the reason why the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks but failed to occupy the grassland. The land of Qinghai is the best opportunity for the Tang Dynasty.


    "I''ve only read a few war books. General Li is the God of the Tang army. How dare you teach others how to axe in front of the general." Merton continued. Of course, Merton would be respectful to the big man in front of him.


    "It seems that brother Li also loves talents." Qin Qiong said with a smile.


    Li Jing said with a smile, "who can not love such a good talent? Unfortunately, it''s not my soldier!"


    Although the father of Merton commanded the magic camp, strictly speaking, he was only an auxiliary arm, not a strategist.


    "However, Mo Chong has some opinions. If you have any questions in the future, you can ask me." Li Jing said.


    "Thank you, General Li!" Merton said ecstatically. Although Li Jing didn''t take him as a disciple, he didn''t refuse to guide his art of war. It would be a rare thing to get the guidance of the Tang army God.


    Many ministers who had not left could not help but sigh that the Mohist family was so lucky to be able to support Guan Long''s family and the military.


    Just when the people sighed, a messenger eunuch suddenly came in a hurry and said, "where is Lord Mo? Your majesty summoned."


    Suddenly, all the courtiers looked at Merton sympathetically.

 Chapter 306

    In the side hall of the imperial palace.


    "See the emperor!"


    Merton entered it carefully. Looking at Li Shimin''s black face, Merton couldn''t help but burst into a sudden heart.


    "Aren''t you quite impassioned just now? Why did you use your energy and spirit too much?" Li Shimin was angry when he saw the dodgy Merton. The boy almost got down from the military general of man Chaowen in the whole court, and was criticized by him for his years of peace policy.


    "Wei Chen knows his mistake!" Merton quickly confessed his mistake.


    "Are you wrong? How could you be wrong? You are an iron blooded man of the Tang Dynasty. How can you hide behind a woman and refuse to let her shed blood and tears for you! Do you think you alone know the humiliation of making peace, not making peace and not paying tribute? Your slogan is loud, but do you know how much more blood Tang officers and soldiers will shed for this slogan?" Li Shimin roared.


    Although the Tang Dynasty was established, its foundation is still shallow, and Li Shimin has personally experienced the war. Naturally, he knows the cruelty of the war. Every war has to be fought at the risk of overthrowing the country. Once it fails, the foundation of the Tang Dynasty will be in danger of overturning. In those years, the Turkic cavalry directly hit Guanzhong, and the Tang Dynasty will almost be destroyed.


    Merton held his neck up and retorted, "that''s right. Datang should be in order to obtain the land of Qinghai. Only Datang has its own horse breeding land can it face the grassland and all parts will not fall behind."


    "What about Tubo? Is it that Datang has struggled to deal with one, and you want to stimulate Tubo?" Li Shimin said angrily. Ink skills are strong, even if Merton doesn''t give ink skills, he also verbally stimulated Tubo envoys.


    "According to Wei Chen, compared with Tuyuhun, Tubo should be occupied by the Tang Dynasty." Merton said.


    Li Shimin suddenly turned his head and looked at the Mohist School in disbelief. He didn''t expect that Merton was so manic today. He was ready to attack a Tuyuhun. Even Tubo wanted to do it. He was too aggressive.


    "Your boy won''t be crazy!" Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously. I''m afraid that only in this way can it explain Merton''s abnormality today.


    "The Tibetan Plateau has a dangerous terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It''s not too much to call it a natural danger. If he can be the natural danger of the Tang Dynasty, he can naturally become the natural danger of other countries. Once the Tang Dynasty obtains the Tibetan Plateau and connects it with the 800 mile vast sea west of Tuyuhun, the whole territory in the west of the Tang Dynasty will be free from danger.


    On the contrary, we can also take the Tibetan Plateau as the commanding height to deter Nanzhao and other countries, and the border problems in the South can also be alleviated. In this way, there will be no border problems in the southwest of Datang.


    "There is no more trouble in the southwest?" Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing, which would be a great temptation.


    "Datang faces the sea in the East and is blessed by thousands of miles of sea. Datang only needs to defend the North wholeheartedly. Therefore, I think Tubo is a place that Datang must not lose. Even if your majesty doesn''t take it now, it will inevitably be included in the territory of Datang in the future, because the Tubo plateau is too important, and the earlier you get it, the more Datang benefits." Merton affirmed.


    "Having said that, Tubo has always been obedient. Our Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. How can we get out of obscurity and conquer other countries at will." although Li Shimin was excited, he still pretended on the surface.


    Li Shimin is also a military master. Naturally, it is clear that Tuyuhun''s Grassland and Qinghai lake salt are practical interests, while the Tubo plateau is strategic interests, which is enough to impress Li Shimin. In particular, he agrees that Tubo will be included in the territory of Datang in the future. Datang really can''t lose such a strategic place.


    Merton said: "from the perspective of terrain, Tubo and Tuyuhun are one. The two major rivers in Datang, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, all originate from Tubo, and Tubo is surrounded by dangerous mountains. Only the north and Qinghai are the most gentle, which is the best access for Tubo."


    Among the many roads to Tibet in future generations, only the Qinghai Tibet highway is the shortest and safest. From the perspective of ethnic exchanges, Datang is the best choice for Tubo and lays the foundation for ruling Tubo in the future.


    "Moreover, ethnically speaking, according to the records of Chinese literature and history books, Tubo is a branch of Qiang people. In essence, it is still our Chinese people. Tubo belongs to the Tang Dynasty and China is unified, which is also the right way." Merton quoted scriptures.


    "I think so, but Tubo don''t think so. The war is going on together. It''s hard to predict the outcome. This matter must be careful." although Li Shimin is excited, he still keeps his reason.


    "Ink has a skill that can make refined steel in a large number. If our officers and soldiers in the Tang Dynasty have a treasure knife, Li Jing and other famous generals, plus the war horses in Qinghai, who is the enemy in the world." Merton said proudly.


    Of course, Li Shimin knows the steel-making method of Mohism. Now most of the steel in Chang''an city comes from Mohist village.


    "All the people in the grassland are soldiers. Men are soldiers in wartime and people in peacetime. Even if we win, I''m afraid we will suffer heavy losses," Li Shimin said.


    "Tell your majesty that the wound suture method of Mohist hospital has been successfully developed. I believe the military has control. In this way, the wounded soldiers will be treated in time and the number of war damaged personnel will be greatly reduced." Merton added.


    Li Shimin was stunned. After careful calculation, he didn''t expect that the Mohists had unknowingly made such a great contribution to the military. "You have sharp teeth and sharp mouth. In my opinion, you look like a vertical and horizontal faction." Li Shimin said angrily. After Merton''s analysis, Li Shimin had the impulse to kill Tubo, but Li Shimin didn''t want Merton to continue to be arrogant.


    "The terrain of Tubo and other places is dangerous. Many people build passes in dangerous places. One man can''t open the pass. Don''t tell me that the Mohist school also has ink skills to break it!" Li Shimin shouted.


    Merton pondered, shook his head and said, "there is no Mohism."


    Li Shimin took a deep look at Merton and said, "no, just be honest and rot today''s affairs in my stomach. I''m not in a hurry about Tubo for the time being. At present, the most important thing in Datang is Tuyuhun. Only when Datang obtains the place to raise horses can it be invincible."


    "Yes!" Merton hurriedly said, but as Wei Chen said, he had no selfishness, but thought of the Tang Dynasty wholeheartedly. "


    "It''s best not to be selfish, or your little body may not be able to carry it." Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and threatened.


    Merton secretly complained. He immediately knew that it must be because of the dissatisfaction with Princess Changle. He thought he had thrown out an amazing topic to divert Li Shimin''s attention. Unexpectedly, he still didn''t hide.


    "Remember me, Mr. Wei!" Morton said politely.


    Fortunately, Merton''s words still played a certain role. Li Shimin''s mind was all attracted by the importance of Tubo thrown by Merton. The board was raised high, but put down gently.

 Chapter 307

    When Merton was summoned by Li Shimin, the matter of chaotang had already been quietly spread all over the palace. Of course, some confidential matters are naturally kept secret.


    "Princess, princess, no, Tuyuhun asked you to be reconciled!" in Changle palace. A maid in green ran into the palace quickly. Princess Changle reported.


    Princess Changle trembled all over and couldn''t help looking dark. She put down her medical skills. They were not unfamiliar with the word "harmony" for princesses of all dynasties, but didn''t expect to appear on her own.


    At the thought of marrying far away on the grassland, Changle suddenly trembled in his heart. The end of all dynasties and pro princesses can be described as extremely miserable.


    "It''s impossible. The princess is the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. There has never been a precedent for the legitimate princess to marry in previous dynasties." another palace maid in yellow did not dare to buy a channel.


    The maid in Green said with a sad face, "it''s not because the title of the long Princess Snow Princess is too loud among the people, which has spread to the ears of Tuyuhun''s noble son, who named the snow princess."


    Princess Changle turned pale and said, "peace is the fate of the princess. I''m the long Princess of the Tang Dynasty. If I follow the example of Zhaojun and make the two countries peaceful for 60 years, Changle is also willing to spit out grain Hun with peace."


    The yellow dress girl surprised the way: "Princess Royal, Zhaojun is a maid of origin, how can you compare with you."


    Princess Changle resolutely said, "a palace maid can appear for the imperial court, and so can this palace as a long princess."


    "The princess can''t. If she gets married, let the maidservant replace the princess." the palace maid in yellow decided.


    "The maidservant is willing to replace the princess," said the maid in green.


    "Ha ha, which one of you doesn''t need to go and kiss." Li Zhi''s excited voice came over.


    With the sound, Li Zhixing in brocade rushed into the Changle hall.


    "Your Highness, Prince." the maids in green and purple quickly saluted.


    Princess Changle didn''t feel relieved. Instead, she looked sad and said, "which imperial family princess does the father emperor want to marry, Honghua sister, or Wencheng sister?"


    "Who isn''t? There''s no marriage at all." Li Zhi said excitedly.


    "Didn''t you get married? That''s great!" the two palace maids jumped.


    Princess Changle was relieved: "even if she failed this time, I don''t know which sister will turn next time!"


    People all over the world see the scenery of the princess, but they don''t know that marriage is the biggest nightmare of every princess.


    "There will be no more in the future." Li Zhi waved his big hand.


    "Seriously?" Changle was surprised.


    Li Zhi nodded heavily and told Chao Tang''s story roughly. He was at a time when his childlike heart was still alive. In the face of such a wonderful event, he was like a treasure and inquired in detail.


    "Merton, the great demon king, was so powerful that he was speechless in three or two sentences."


    "It''s really hard for all generations to marry princesses!" Changle sighed. It can be said that what Mozi said touched the pain point of all princesses, and more than half of them died prematurely. The rest will endure the grassland marriage leave custom, which is regarded as a heinous crime by the Han people. Although it is said that it is the marriage custom of all ethnic groups in the grassland, after all, the princess is deeply influenced by the Han tradition. How can she accept such a custom.


    "That is, Merton shouted loudly, no peace, no tribute, no compensation, no land cutting, the ministers guarded the country, the king died, the father and the emperor were so angry that he drove the messenger Tuyuhun out of the Tai Chi hall and asked Fu Yun to come and apologize, so that Tuyuhun could be pardoned." Li Zhi clenched his fist and blushed. Merton''s slogan of no peace made him excited.


    "No marriage, no tribute..." Princess Changle softly repeated this sentence. She couldn''t help being crazy. The world saw Merton''s amazing literary talent and generous speeches. As a princess, she paid more attention to no marriage. From then on, Princess Datang''s miserable nightmare disappeared.


    "Great! The princess doesn''t have to kiss again!" the maids of the Changle palace cheered one after another.


    Princess Changle could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Tuyuhun named her to marry. Even if Li Shimin found other imperial princesses to replace her, there will always be a pimple in Princess Changle''s heart.


    At present, Merton directly interferes with the marriage, which is the best result for Princess Changle.


    Li Zhi suddenly and mysteriously came up and said, "sister Huang, I heard that Merton opposed marriage, but he was angry at the crown and became a beauty. I don''t know whether it''s true."


    Princess Changle''s face turned red with shame and couldn''t help retorting: "it''s not because of me. Lord Mo himself respects women very much. Naturally, he can''t see the marriage."


    Li Zhi said with a laugh, "although the great devil Merton is hateful, I don''t object to him being my brother-in-law in terms of his stirring up pornography and marriage."


    Princess Changle became angry and shouted, "don''t talk nonsense. I won''t tear your mouth."


    Princess Changle tried to tear Li Zhi. Li Zhi ran outside the hall in the wind.


    "Hey, you child, slow down and don''t break it." outside the Changle hall, empress changsun shouted.


    "Mother!"


    Hearing the voice of empress Chang sun, Princess Changle immediately rushed into the arms of empress Chang sun who had just entered the gate, crying pear blossom with rain.


    After all, she is a cardamom girl, green and ignorant. How did she encounter such a thing? It seems strong on the surface, but all the grievances rushed to her heart when she saw her mother.


    "Well, well, how can the father, the emperor and the empress be willing to let Changle go to make peace?" the empress changsun quickly comforted.


    Empress Chang sun was also distressed. She was heartbroken at the thought of her daughter''s marriage, even if it was only possible.


    As a queen, she knows more. Of course, she knows that Datang is not only no longer making peace, but also about to start a war against Tuyuhun.


    After a long time, Princess Changle stopped crying and said with hatred: "Tuyuhun is really hateful. The people on the border are struggling to survive by looting Shanzhou. Now the cold winter is coming. How can the people in Shanzhou survive the cold winter? The child has called on the Red Cross to donate money and materials. The first batch of materials have been transported to Shanzhou. I hope they can help.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said meaningfully, "Lord Mo is indeed very talented. With this Red Cross Society, the pressure of the imperial court will be greatly reduced. It is really beneficial to the country and the people.


    At the mention of Merton, Princess Changle immediately beamed and said, "that''s what Lord Mo knows and does, which is in line with the intention of loving all sentient beings. How many ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty benefit from this......"


    Princess Changle was having a good time. She suddenly saw the meaningful expression of empress changsun, and then thought of the rumor that chaotang Merton was angry for her crown. She was immediately ashamed.


    "Empress mother!" Princess Changle once again fell into the arms of the empress changsun. She was too ashamed to lift her head, and the girl''s mind showed no doubt.


    The eldest grandson touched her daughter lovingly and sighed in her heart. She was originally the eldest daughter of the Tang Dynasty, but Changle''s marriage was very bumpy.


    As a mother, of course, she wants her daughter to live better. She contributed to the marriage between Princess Changle and changsun Chong, but it almost led to a big mistake. This is why queen changsun has always had a thorn in her heart.


    Unexpectedly, it had just calmed down for a while, but Tuyuhun named Princess Changle and the marriage. Fortunately, Merton stirred up the marriage, but unexpectedly broke out Princess Changle''s mind.


    "Is this destiny!"


    Empress changsun sighed that Princess Changle''s two wrong marriages were saved by Merton, but they had a secret feeling. Now empress changsun also believes that Merton''s abnormal behavior has almost no explanation except for the reason of Princess Changle.


    Satisfied with the 100 Empresses of Merton''s eldest grandchildren, now the whole Chang''an city can''t find a better young talent, which is naturally a good match for Princess Changle.


    However, Merton is responsible for the rise of Mohism and the debate among various schools of thought. It has always been a sword, and Princess Changle is involved in it. I don''t know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

 Chapter 308

    "If you don''t make peace with your relatives, don''t pay tribute, don''t make compensation, don''t cede land, the ministers guard the country, and the king dies!"


    "Good mojiazi."


    "I''m a great Tang Dynasty. How can the heavenly kingdom be bullied by a barbarian country and want to make peace? It doesn''t matter."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the end of the great court meeting, what Merton said in the court hall immediately spread all over Chang''an city like the wind, and the people of Chang''an City were boiling.


    Merton said this to the hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty. Since defeating the Turks, the Tang army captured Jieli Khan and returned home. World War I brought back the pride and pride of the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    Even the Turks, the grassland overlord, were defeated by the iron cavalry in the lobby, not to mention you Tuyuhun. Since the news that Tuyuhun robbed Shanzhou came, there have been constant calls for war in Chang''an city.


    The Red Cross also took the opportunity to initiate donations for the people of Shanzhou. For a while, there were a flood of responders. In a short time, they raised a lot of materials.


    "This is what I should do in the Tang Dynasty!" Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help being excited in the ink house. In fact, Qin Huaiyu is more than excited. Every bloody man is not filled with righteous indignation.


    "I didn''t expect you to be so thin and weak at ordinary times. You are such a man at the critical moment!" Chumo looks at Merton strangely.


    Merton frowned and said discontentedly, "what is such a man at the critical moment? Yeah, yeah, I''ve always been a man."


    With that, Merton was unwilling to show weakness and stood up a little muscle he had practiced.


    "Really, even the brothel dare not go, and dare to call himself a man!" Wei Chi Baolin smiled and stabbed Merton''s pain point, and immediately beat Merton back to his original shape.


    Merton retorted powerlessly, "that''s the rule of Mojia village. You can''t grow up until you''re 18. Besides, how can a man miss the place of fireworks and learn more skills when he''s young?"


    Merton looked contemptuously at the three old drivers and looked at his small body. When he went to that place at such a young age, Merton couldn''t pass that level.


    "What''s the matter with you and that?" Qin Huaiyu winked and pointed to the direction of the palace.


    Chumo and Chumo immediately came together and said proudly.


    Merton sighed and said, "if I am filled with righteous indignation and defend the grievances of the border soldiers, do you believe it?"


    The three shook their heads together.


    "If I retaliated against Tuyuhun because Tuyuhun blocked the Silk Road and destroyed the Mohist plan, do you believe it?"


    The three still shook their heads.


    "If I say that because of my male chauvinism, I can''t see a woman pushed into the fire pit and indifferent, even any woman, I will do so, believe it or not."


    Before the three shook their heads, Merton waved helplessly and said, "well, whatever you think!"


    Qin Huaiyu said with a smile, "it doesn''t matter what we think. The key is what the crown prince will think. I heard that the disaster areas in Henan Province have been properly resettled. It''s estimated that it''s time to come back soon."


    Merton''s face suddenly froze. Thinking of Li Chengqian''s crazy devil protecting his sister, he couldn''t help feeling scared. No matter what his purpose was, it always had an impact on the reputation of Princess Changle.


    The four people had a quarrel for a while, and then they discussed the upcoming Tuguhun war.


    "The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will certainly lose a lot when they fight together," Merton sighed.


    Although he knew what he had done was right, when he thought of the war, there must be many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty wrapped up in clothes, and his mental calculation was also heavy.


    "So what? Someone has to sacrifice for the Tang Dynasty. The final destination of our generals is to wrap up the corpse in a vest." Wei Chi Baolin held his head high. Although Wei Chi Baolin usually doesn''t say anything, he is actually a battle madman.


    "Yes, after you leave the Imperial College, brothers and others will also be in the Imperial College. It doesn''t mean anything. Just take the opportunity to leave the Imperial College and join the army." Qin Huaiyu said.


    The three of them admired Merton''s opportunity to leave the Imperial College. They also took the opportunity to find the opportunity to leave the Imperial College.


    "Yes, maybe we can catch up with the battle of Tuyuhun? You and my brothers will destroy Tuyuhun and build unparalleled miracles." Chumo also looks forward to it.


    Wei Chi Baolin also nodded heavily.


    Fifteen, join the army! In this era, it is common for men to join the army at the age of 15. They are all children of generals. Joining the army is the only way.


    "Well, when you join the army, I will definitely ask Mojia village to make you the strongest armor and the sharpest weapon," Merton said.


    Marching and fighting, in this era, the art of war and strategy are the fundamental factors that determine the victory of war, but the advancement of weapons is also very important. With the weapons made of Mohist refined steel, they will be able to add strength to their strength.


    Taiyuan Wangjia.


    When the news of the whole court spread all over the Taiyuan Wang family, the Taiyuan Wang family was shocked and angry.


    "Let''s discuss it!"


    In the king''s assembly hall, the king''s rooms were seated on the left and right. The head of the Wang''s family was an old man with a gloomy face.


    "The MOH family is simply deceiving people too much. Once the Qinghai lake salt is developed, my Wang family will suffer heavy losses!" the four rooms of the Wang family roared.


    Salt industry is a major source of wealth for the Wangs in Taiyuan. The Mohists will develop snow salt before, which will directly divide the market of Yuncheng fine salt in half.


    However, there are not many people who can afford fine salt. Coarse salt is the main source of profits for the Wang family. Once Datang gets Qinghai Lake and Mohist ink technology, once it is boiled on a large scale and a large amount of salt flows into the market, the situation of Yuncheng salt pond dominating Guanzhong will be lost in an instant. I''m afraid there will not be so many high profits any more.


    Each room of the Wang family can''t help but look heavy. This form has a great loss to the Wang family in Taiyuan.


    "How does Lao Liu do it? He can''t even hold down a Mohist. It''s waste!" the second room of the Wang family was dissatisfied. Wang Yushi is the sixth room of the Taiyuan Wang family, known as Lao Liu.


    "The Mohist family has been against the Wang family in Taiyuan for many times. They simply don''t know how to live or die. In my opinion, the Mohist family can''t stay." the third room of the Wang family said sternly. Wang Zhe is from the third room of the Wang family. Wang Zhe is a promising child of the Wang family. As a result, the Mohist family has been defeated and retreated repeatedly, and even sent back to Taiyuan to think about it, which has something to do with the Mohist family.


    At present, Merton has directly touched the largest source of wealth of the Wang family in Taiyuan. The three rooms of the Wang family immediately rush into their hearts with new and old hatred. They are ruthless. They simply don''t do one thing or two, and directly kill the mojiazi.


    "Nonsense, the Mohist family is the one your majesty values. If you act recklessly, you will put the Wang family in danger." the Wang family''s eldest room angrily denounced.


    "Yes, not to mention that Mojia Zi is deeply trusted by his majesty, even the Guanlong aristocratic family is on the side of Mojia Zi. If you act recklessly, even the Wang family can''t afford it."


    Merton now holds the lifeblood of the Guanlong aristocratic family. If Merton has any mistakes, I''m afraid the Taiyuan royal family will face the anger of Li Shimin and the whole Guanlong aristocratic family. At that time, the Taiyuan royal family will fall apart.


    "Do we let the appearance of Mojia Zi bully us like this?" the fourth room of the Wang family said reluctantly.


    "There is no Millennium Dynasty in the world, only a millennium family. The royal family inherits the millennium by prudence, only enough patience, and there will be opportunities in the future." the eldest room of the Wang family sneered.


    The Mohist School advocates taking care of everyone first and then the small family, so Merton always focuses on national interests. The Mohist School''s proposal to mine Qinghai lake salt is indeed that national interests are higher than selfishness.


    The members of the Taiyuan Wang family only care about their own family interests, but they have no regard for the benefits of Qinghai Lake Salt Mining to the Tang Dynasty. For them, even if the Tang Dynasty is destroyed, they can still enjoy prosperity and even more grace than in the past.


    Loyal to home or country, in the face of interests, ugly.

 Chapter 309

    On the city gate, Li Shimin and Merton stood in the wind, watching the pedestrians in and out of the city gate. Among the coming and going crowd, the pedestrians dressed by Taoist priests were particularly conspicuous. "What''s the matter? So many Taoists have entered Chang''an City recently." a passing merchant in black asked puzzled as he watched a large number of Taoists enter Chang''an city.


    "You don''t know. It''s said that Yuan Shoucheng, an old immortal, has made a peerless pill. Children can strengthen themselves and grow up. The old man can walk fast and prolong life." an idle man said excitedly.


    "So, so many Taoists came to witness the immortal art of yuan?" the merchant in black suddenly realized.


    The idle man shook his head strangely and said, "no, these Taoists came to talk about Dan with old immortal yuan."


    "Ah!" the merchant in black was stunned. He didn''t expect that these Taoists came to trouble old immortal yuan.


    The idle man looked at the merchant in black strangely and said, "what''s strange? It''s so difficult to live forever. If yuan''s immortal''s immortal''s immortal''s immortal''s way is correct, it will prove that other Taoist priests'' immortal''s way is wrong! Naturally, these Taoist priests will come to discuss the pill with Yuan''s immortal and try to be high and low.


    Everyone around suddenly realized that, in fact, among the hundreds of schools of thought, after generation after generation of development, there have been many mountains, and there are countless schools of thought. No one is satisfied with anyone.


    Even in those days, the Mohist school was not divided into three, and each acted in its own way. I''m afraid there will be more mountains of Taoism.


    Li Shimin listened to the discussion under the city wall, looked at the Taoists entering Chang''an City, frowned and asked, "does Taoism really have the kind of weapon you said?


    At that time, in the Imperial Palace, Li Shimin once asked whether the Mohist school could break the pass that one man can''t pass. Merton replied that the Mohist school didn''t.


    It is true that Mohism does not have this ink technique, but it is not that other schools do not. Li Shimin never thought that Taoism had this unique weapon.


    "Absolutely true!"


    Merton, standing behind Li Shimin, nodded without hesitation.


    Li Shimin wrinkled slightly and said, "in that case, why don''t you see the Taoist play. I don''t believe the Taoist will hide it from me."


    Although Li Tang used Confucianism to govern the country, he believed that it was the descendants of Lao Tzu who regarded Taoism as a national religion and had great trust in Taoism. He didn''t believe that Taoism had such powerful things, but he hid it from him.


    "That''s because Taoism probably doesn''t know the value of this thing," Merton cried and laughed.


    The weapon that Merton said can destroy the pass is naturally gunpowder, one of China''s four great inventions.


    Gunpowder is used by Taoist Alchemy to support combustion. Taoist has such a treasure. It''s the biggest waste to use it in the side door.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but take a deep look at the Mohist school. The Taoists didn''t know they had such a treasure, and the Mohist family knew it, which made people think deeply.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "I have no intention of prying into the secrets of Taoism. I can destroy the pass. Such a sharp weapon can be regarded as the greatest invention in the world. If I have selfishness, I will certainly take it as my own, rather than admit that it is owned by the Taoism."


    The doubts in Li Shimin''s heart dissipated slightly. Suddenly, a startled breath under the city led Li Shimin''s idea.


    "Taoist Changsheng is coming!" exclaimed a common man in Chang''an City under the south gate.


    I saw a Taoist slowly coming from the south. His face was haggard. His face was at least 80 years old, but he was covered with black hair. Other Taoists were childlike and crane haired, while the immortal Taoist was just the opposite.


    The idle man smiled and said, "this is Taoist Changsheng. He has excellent Taoist skills. He is nearly 80 years old, but he still has black hair. Judging from the bottom, Taoist Changsheng is the closest person to the way of Changsheng. Now, old immortal yuan has an opponent."


    "Immeasurable heaven!" Taoist Changsheng shouted, which immediately aroused the exclamation of all the people.


    "Taoist priest Changsheng, can we pursue the way of Changsheng?" the merchant in black looked at the Taoist priest Changsheng and said enthusiastically.


    Taoist Changsheng nodded smartly and said, "it''s really boundless to live together for a long time, and the poor road is just a fur. As for you, as long as you focus on the good and devote yourself to the road, the poor road will naturally give you everything without reservation."


    "Taoist Changsheng is really an expert in Taoism. I will visit him some day." the merchant in Black said excitedly.


    If you can get the advice of Taoist Changsheng, it is impossible to live forever. At least it is necessary to prolong your life. How can you not thank yourself for such a great kindness? The merchant in black can''t help thinking about what gift he will give to visit at the door another day.


    "Immortality!" Li Shimin looked at the Taoist immortality with black hair, and his eyes flashed hot.


    Although he was in his prime of life and didn''t have much mind to pursue longevity, he couldn''t help but feel excited when he saw the immortal Taoist with black hair. That Emperor didn''t want to live five hundred more years.


    "Taoist Shenxiao!"


    A burst of cheers came from the crowd, followed by a muffled thunder, which interrupted Li Shimin''s thoughts.


    Li Shimin was suddenly surprised and couldn''t help looking for prestige. He saw a Taoist wearing a wide avenue robe coming slowly outside the Nancheng gate.


    Everywhere, there was a faint sound of thunder.


    "Taoist Shenxiao''s five thunder Dharma is so profound that he can cultivate the Tao." the merchant in black changed his position and looked at Taoist Shenxiao excitedly.


    Thunder is the most beautiful and mysterious thing in this era. Taoist Shenxiao, who can control the power of thunder, is also sought after and famous by people.


    Leisurely Hamilton said proudly, "that''s so. In the Taoist School of the Tang Dynasty, only Taoist Shenxiao and Taoist Changsheng can be on an equal footing with old Taoist yuan. They are all famous figures of the Taoist school. This Dan discussion meeting is lively."


    "Brother Shenxiao!"


    When Taoist Changsheng saw Taoist Shenxiao walking slowly, he couldn''t help saying his words and deeds.


    "Elder brother Changsheng!"


    Taoist Shenxiao also saluted slowly.


    They looked at each other and smiled. Although they were competitors at ordinary times, Yuan Shoucheng took the lead at the moment, and they had to work together.


    "There are really people in the world who can have the art of longevity and control the power of heaven and thunder!" Li Shimin said calmly as he looked at Taoist Shenxiao.


    "Your Majesty, what you hear may not be false, and what you see may not be true. What you say and hear, even what you see, is just what they want you to see." Merton suddenly said.


    Li Shimin was suddenly surprised. He was so blessed that he was surprised to see the Taoist Shenxiao who was slowly entering Chang''an city.


    "Is it...?" Li Shimin trembled.


    Merton nodded and said, "if you can break the switch pass, the natural sound will be huge. At that time, the sound will be more than a thousand times."

 Chapter 310

    At the xuandu temple, Taoist priests gather.


    Those who can come to the xuandu temple are famous Taoists in the Tang Dynasty or local leaders of the temple. It is rare for many Taoists to gather here and exchange their experiences and demonstrate Taoism.


    Taoist Shenxiao and Taoist Changsheng are among them, even in a very prominent position, just like the stars holding the moon.


    "After ten years of farewell, Taoist Changsheng is still elegant. I think it''s not far from the way of Changsheng!" a white haired Qingcheng Taoist looked at Taoist Changsheng with black hair.


    In a group of Taoists, everyone''s ultimate goal is to pursue longevity. However, other Taoists claim that they cultivate the way of longevity, but they can''t give any evidence. However, only the Taoist Changsheng is the biggest exception. His black hair will be the most powerful evidence of his longevity. Therefore, among a group of Taoists, the Taoist Changsheng is the most famous.


    "Where, where, I think the dust gas of Qingcheng Taoist temple is better than in the past. I think it is also a great progress in Taoism." Taoist Changsheng threw his Taoist robe and said.


    "It''s just a little success. This time, I refined and collected the aura of Qingcheng and refined a batch of pills. I heard that yuan Daoyou''s pills were great, so I came to demonstrate it." the leader of Qingcheng Taoist temple looked modest, but his tone meant something.


    "That''s right. I''m also curious about yuan Daoyou''s elixir of longevity. I''ll see it at that time." Taoist priest Changsheng smiled.


    The two reached an alliance in an instant. Their longevity was illusory, but yuan Shoucheng suddenly took the lead. How can the Taoists be convinced.


    On the other side of xuandu temple, Taoist Shenxiao was the same, and attracted a large number of allies one after another.


    If you have a heart, you can find that all the people attracted by Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao are waidan sect.


    They nodded vaguely and sneered in their hearts. With the support of these people, they must give yuan Shoucheng of Neidan school a good look at the whole Dan discussion conference.


    The bell rang.


    All the Taoists were shocked to know that the discussion on Dan was about to begin and that the time to decide the leader of the Taoist family was coming.


    With the sound of the bell, Yuan Shoucheng, a fairy like man, slowly appeared in front of a group of Taoists.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, today is a grand gathering of our Taoist family. I''m very happy to see many Taoist friends." Yuan Shoucheng said with an arch hand.


    A group of Taoists also saluted one after another.


    "Yuan Daoyou, I don''t need to say more polite words. We came here recently to see yuan Daoyou''s elixir of longevity." Taoist priest Shenxiao said impatiently. He boasted that he practiced the five thunder Dharma. He was usually hot tempered. People had been used to it for a long time. They were not surprised to see him take the lead in trouble.


    Seeing this, Yuan Shoucheng was not angry. He just laughed and said, "the Taoist friends of Shenxiao are still so straightforward, but don''t worry. You are far away in the Tang Dynasty, but you don''t know that a hundred schools of thought are contending again in Chang''an city. Please let me introduce some Taoist friends of a hundred schools of thought to you."


    "A hundred schools of thought!"


    A group of Taoists moved in their hearts and found that there were many more seats above the Dan conference.


    It is no stranger to all the Taoists. As long as you learn Taoism, you naturally need to understand the history of Taoism. Of course, you know how brilliant all the schools in the Pre-Qin Dynasty are.


    "Descendants of Confucius, Confucian Kong Yingda!" Kong Yingda, dressed in Confucian clothes, was the first to go to the stage.


    "I''ve seen you guys!" Kong Yingda saluted.


    Many Taoists returned rites one after another. Confucianism is one of the most famous schools. Since the Western Han Dynasty, Confucianism has been all over the court. Even if Li Tang respected Taoism, Taoism did not dare to neglect Confucianism, and Kong Yingda is the direct descendant of Confucius.


    "Doctor Sun Simiao!"


    Sun Simiao, dressed in white, followed Kong Yingda.


    "I''ve seen your Taoist friends!" Sun Simiao saluted.


    "Sun Daoyou has a childlike face and Hefa. His Taoism is excellent!"


    A group of Taoist priests responded that Sun Simiao was very familiar to them. Strictly speaking, Sun Simiao was also half a Taoist. He practiced medicine in Wutai Mountain and lived in a Taoist temple. In addition to his excellent medical skills, Sun Simiao''s Taoist accomplishments were also extremely high. Even a group of Taoist priests who had been immersed in Taoism for many years had to admire him.


    "Historian Yan shigu has seen all Taoist friends!"


    "Shu Shu Shen Hong has just seen all Taoist friends!"


    "Public loser, public loser Hong, I''ve seen your Taoist friends!"


    "Farmer Su Lingnong has seen your Taoist friends!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    It was Yan shigu, a great historian of the Tang Dynasty, who was the first old man to walk fast. Although Yan shigu was a descendant of the Confucian Yan Hui, he was now appointed to compile the book of the Sui Dynasty. It is not wrong to call him a historian,


    Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, Su Lingnong, a big Si Nong, and Gong Shuhong followed, and the three filed in,


    A group of Taoists suddenly became dignified. He didn''t expect that the Dan discussion conference would be so grand. Yuan Shoucheng invited representatives of all schools of thought.


    Not to mention historians, farmers and public losers, although mathematics appeared late, it is also a rising star among all schools of thought.


    "Farmer Su Lingnong has met


    "Who is this man?" Taoist Changsheng saw that a 15-year-old boy followed the three people and came up with a frown.


    "I don''t know. Is it that the child went wrong?" Qingcheng Taoist priest wondered.


    "Yuan Shoucheng is getting more and more backward. He even makes such mistakes." Taoist Changsheng sneered.


    "Hahaha, Taoist elder brother Changsheng, I don''t know. I guess this person is likely to rise like a comet in Chang''an City," Taoist priest Shenxiao explained.


    "Mohist, that Mohist?" said the immortal Taoist Ning chongdao. He was obsessed with Taoism and didn''t pay attention to the outside world. Naturally, he hadn''t heard of Merton.


    "Yes, it''s the Mohist school." Taoist Shenxiao sighed. Mohist school was a prominent school in the Pre-Qin Dynasty. It was a time when Taoism was pressed behind, but he didn''t expect that Mohist school, which had fallen for thousands of years, would rise again.


    Sure enough, I heard the young man walk to the stage and bow his hands and say, "Mohist Merton has seen all Taoist masters."


    On one side, the Taoist priest around Chang''an quickly introduced the story of Mohism to Taoist Changsheng. Taoist Changsheng''s eyes lit up in an instant and looked at the young man in front of the stage.


    "The secret skill of living fish, making ice with saltpeter!" Taoist Changsheng was manic. He didn''t care about other things of Mohism, but he was surprised by the mysterious means of making ice in summer and the living material oxygen mentioned in the secret skill of living fish.


    If these two things are in your own hands, how much value will they create for yourself.


    Taoist Shenxiao also sighed: "we have always been pursuing the way of immortals, and in my opinion, Mohists are more like immortals coming to earth.


    A group of Taoists could not help nodding and sighing. Such means were comparable to the art of immortals.


    "Legalist, Han Zheng has seen all Taoist friends!"


    Merton was surprised to see that the doctor of law at home was invited by Yuan Shoucheng.


    Taoists, Confucians, Mohists, Legalists, doctors, farmers, historians, mathematicians and public losers were all present.


    For a moment, hundreds of xuandu Temple gathered.

 Chapter 311

    "Yuan Shoucheng, I don''t know what you mean. This is the Taoist meeting on Dan. What''s the purpose of inviting all scholars?" Taoist Changsheng frowned.


    He had planned to unite with Yuan Shoucheng to make trouble today, but he didn''t expect yuan Shoucheng to invite so many people from hundreds of families. Such a grand scene made him feel a little uneasy.


    A trace of pain appeared on Yuan Shoucheng''s face and said in a loud voice, "today, I invite all the scholars to come just to be a witness. There should be a result of the struggle between the Taoist inner Dan sect and the outer Dan sect for thousands of years."


    "Hum! The way of Dan is changeable, and different paths lead to the same goal. Why do you think that only your Dan is the right way, and we are wrong." Taoist Shenxiao angrily said.


    "There''s no doubt that you can tell the difference by talking about Dan for us. I''ve heard that yuan Daoyou has great Taoist attainments for a long time. I''ve wanted to learn it for a long time." the leader of Qingcheng Temple sneered.


    On the Dan conference, the whole xuandu Temple immediately faced off with the inner Dan sect and the outer Dan sect.


    Yan shigu on the stand was moved. He immediately knew that today''s affairs must be not simple. Based on the habits of historians, he couldn''t help feeling out paper and pen to prepare records.


    Yan shigu''s action could not help but make other people in the stands look up. Yan shigu couldn''t help but say embarrassed, "get used to it, get used to it."


    Yan shigu''s behavior is not difficult for people to understand. With Yuan Shoucheng''s solemn treatment, today''s events may go down in history.


    However, what surprised you most was that Yan shigu used a pencil invented by the Mohist school. Kong Yingda''s eyes were frozen. He didn''t expect Yan shigu to abandon the brush and use a pencil.


    Yan shigu raised the sharpened pencil in his hand and said with a smile, "the Mohist pencil is really good. It doesn''t need to grind ink, and the writing is fast. It''s even my taste."


    Although historians'' records record major events, for a historian, they may need to be recorded anytime and anywhere. With a very convenient pencil, historians'' records will be very convenient.


    "Yan Lao''s liking is the most pertinent to Mohism!" Merton said hurriedly.


    Kong Yingda snorted: "pencil writing is fast, but it is easy to wear. Brother Yan is not afraid to make a mistake in the recorded historical facts!"


    Mohist pencils are really convenient, but the only disadvantage is that they are easy to drop ink and flower fonts.


    Yan shigu laughed and said, "this matter is easy to solve. After I return to the residence, I can transcribe it again."


    He also heard about the dispute between brush and coin, but he didn''t care about it. Pencil is too important for historians. Therefore, historians'' records will be very accurate.


    "In fact, it is not only convenient, but also extremely cheap. Now most poor children mostly use pencils. Pencils are cheap and the font is small, so they can save paper. Farm children can read and write." Su Lingnong smiled and praised pencils. The biggest consumption of reading comes from pens, ink, paper and inkstone. With pencils, the opportunities for education of farm children will be greatly increased.


    Shen Hongcai also went on to say, "it takes a lot of calculation to calculate. Using a pencil can save a lot of time. Of course, the most important thing of calculation is accuracy. The final result should be written with a brush to avoid being tampered with."


    "You can rest assured that the Mohist School imitates the goose feather pen and plans to build a pen with steel. Over time, if it can succeed, it will certainly be able to combine all the advantages of the brush and pencil to create the most suitable writing tool for students in the Tang Dynasty." Merton said.


    "Hahaha, I''ll wait and see." Yan shigu laughed.


    The other people could not help nodding. There was no surprise. It was not impossible for Mohists to make pens with goose feather and ink, and to make pens with steel in the future.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help humming angrily. Although he is a supporter of the brush, it is undeniable that the pencil is unique. Its cheap price alone is enough to make it very popular.


    For a moment, there was a relative atmosphere of needles on and off the stage.


    "A man can still live with grain. If he gets it, he will live. If he does not get it, he will die. Moreover, if he has the top-grade divine medicine, will it benefit people ten thousand times more than grain?..." on the podium, the leader of Qingcheng Temple read Ge Hong''s Alchemy theory of Puzi. When it comes to the subtlety, a group of Taoists nodded one after another.


    "The Qingcheng Temple master is really talented! He is deep in the essence of baopu Zi!" Sun Simiao nodded first. He is proficient in Taoist collections. Naturally, he has carefully studied baopu Zi. Ge Hong is also a medical master, and Sun Simiao has benefited a lot.


    "Today, I collected the aura from a hundred miles around Qingcheng and finally refined this pill." Qingcheng Taoist priest proudly raised a pill.


    All the Taoists immediately nodded and could not help showing a trace of envy. So the pill can be said to be the best. It is a rare top-grade pill.


    Later, a group of Taoists also showed their pills one after another.


    "Fu Jindan is a kind of thing. The longer it is burned, the better the change will be. When gold is burned into the fire, it will not disappear. If it is buried, it will be immortal. Taking these two things will damage people''s body, so it can make people immortal." the population of Changsheng Tao recites the classic theory of baopuzi and looks around at the proud Tao.


    Ge Hong believes that gold and silver are immortal things. If the human body is forged with gold and silver, it will certainly live forever. This theory is widely spread in Taoism.


    "After ten years of hard refining, I finally refined a dragon and tiger gold pill. If I can take it, I will be further away from the way of longevity." Taoist Changsheng proudly raised a golden pill, and my black hair and attractive gold medicine doubled my persuasion.


    Su Lingnong swallowed involuntarily, looked at Sun Simiao next to him, and asked curiously, "Taoist sun, you are also half a Taoist. The old farmer is very angry. Can ordinary people like me take pills to achieve the way of longevity?"


    When Su Lingnong asked, everyone listened. Even Yan shigu, who was recording, couldn''t help but stop writing.


    Sun Simiao frowned and said, "I''ve been obsessed with medicine all my life and don''t seek the way of longevity. What I refine is the pill of plants and trees, which is mostly used to prolong life. I haven''t tried the pill of gold and stone. I don''t know."


    The doctor of law sneered at the speech and said, "you old farmer is an old longevity. You think your life is too long. Have you seen many legal cases and examples of swallowing gold and dying are everywhere. If you swallow such a big thing of gold and stone, hey hey..."


    Although the doctor of law didn''t say it directly, he obviously didn''t believe in the prescription of Taoist pills.


    Su Ling''s face was red at once. He swallowed gold and died. He knew that he was just run away by the law doctor. He said, "you old fad, you know what, this stone is not toxic after Taoist refining. It only has the effect of Xian Dan."


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "gold is not toxic."


    As a doctor, he has the most say in this. Gold is indeed non-toxic. If it is toxic, isn''t the circulating gold fatal.


    Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, was surprised and said, "why did you kill yourself by swallowing gold?"


    "That''s because the gold is heavy. Swallow it into your stomach and keep falling until you break through your intestines, causing blood to die in your body. However, I don''t recommend that you swallow gold and die. Swallowing gold won''t be fatal for a while until you suffer unbearable pain and die." Merton suddenly answered.


    "More and more!" Sun Simiao suddenly realized.


    Everyone is extremely smart. After a little thought, they suddenly understand the principle. They can''t help fighting a cold war. They are surprised to see a young Merton. It''s incredible that they know so much about the murder case at a young age.


    Merton smiled bitterly: "The Mohist school has a lot of research on force, which is a common phenomenon. We will bury the gold in the ground for ten or eight years, and then dig it. In fact, this is the reason why the gold is too heavy and will sink automatically. Especially in rainy days, when the soil is soft, the gold will automatically sink to the soft side of the soil. This is the reason why the gold will run. In fact, we can either dig down, Or expand the scope and you will find it. "


    "Oh!"


    Suddenly, everyone looked at each other. They couldn''t help blinking their eyes and quickly avoided. It turned out that everyone had the same place to hide gold. Since their place of gold was known by these people, do you want to hide another place after you go back!

 Chapter 312

    On the podium, Taoist Changsheng talked about Changsheng. On the stand, a group of people from all walks of life talked about swallowing gold, committing suicide and the principle that gold can run. The painting style is extremely contrary to peace.


    However, they can be representatives of hundreds of schools of thought, which are extremely intelligent people. Naturally, they know that what they say is correct. When they look at the golden elixir of Taoist Changsheng, they no longer have the previous desire, but fall into deep thinking.


    Su Lingnong, a farmer, said regretfully, "the Taoists often take gold and stone pills. Why can they not only be unimpeded, but also prolong their life."


    "It may be that the Taoist masters have both internal and external skills and can take them. Ordinary people like us can''t bear the power of golden stone pill!" Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, frowned.


    Although he doesn''t believe in the elixir of gold and stone, it''s hard to explain that the Taoists here are all immortal and childlike.


    Sun Simiao pondered, shook his head and said, "real gold is not afraid of fire. On the contrary, real gold is not afraid of fire. Not to mention the human body. From the perspective of a doctor, the human body can''t absorb gold and silver."


    Sun Simiao practiced both Taoism and medicine. However, the conflict between the ideas of Taoism and medicine has long been rooted in his heart.


    Merton then said, "the pill is round. The round is the easiest to roll. Even after taking it, it should not stay in the abdomen. I speculate that the pill taken is likely to be discharged with the filth."


    Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, nodded slowly and agreed with Merton.


    Everyone said a word to you, I said a word to concentrate on the power of a hundred schools. The more they talked, the more scary they became. They were about to touch the deepest secret of Taoism.


    Even Kong Yingda has to admire the knowledge of all schools. Indeed, each school has its own uniqueness. I''m afraid that there are not many problems in the world that can defeat these people.


    For a moment, all people''s minds turned sharply, each of them kept silent, and their eyes looked at the bleachers.


    "I once refined a thunder pill. On the day when this pill was refined, I caused the sky thunder to roll. This pill was made after seven or forty-nine days of thunder robbery..."


    Sun Simiao and other people from all schools of thought heard that Taoist Shenxiao was elated about the thunder robbing gold pill. They no longer had their previous hearts, but their doubts became deeper and deeper.


    Taoist Shenxiao carefully received his pill into the treasure box in the envious eyes of many Taoists. He looked proudly at Yuan Shoucheng and said, "yuan Daoyou, the pills of Taoist brothers have been displayed. I wonder if yuan Daoyou''s elixir of longevity can open your eyes."


    All the Taoist priests could not help but move in their hearts and looked at Yuan Shoucheng.


    Yuan Shoucheng stood up firmly at random, stretched out his hand and saw a middle-aged Taoist in his forties walking out slowly.


    "Yuan Tiangang?" Taoist Changsheng couldn''t help looking at the middle-aged Taoist. Among all the Taoist priests, he was most afraid of Yuan Shoucheng, but yuan Tiangang, who was appointed as the imperial heavenly supervisor.


    Yuan Shoucheng is a kind man though he is proficient in Taoism. However, Yuan Tiangang sits firmly in the position of the imperial heavenly supervisor among the Taoists. His Taoist techniques are extremely clever. The immortal Taoist has a feeling of being seen through in front of him.


    "Yuan Tiangang!"


    Merton listened to everyone''s comments and couldn''t help looking at this famous Taoist legend in the future.


    It is said that Li Shimin asked him and his disciple Li Chunfeng to predict the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty. After a night''s rehearsal, the two masters and disciples directly calculated what would happen two thousand years later. Until dawn, Yuan Tiangang pushed his back from behind to wake up Li Chunfeng and said, "the secret of heaven can''t be revealed. Let''s go back and have a rest!"


    The "Tui Bei Tu" left by the second person has been handed down and is known as the first book of prophecy in China. Even later generations can deduce the major events in the next two thousand years in the Tui Bei Tu.


    Merton looked intently and saw a Taoist about 30 years old. After Yuan Tiangang, it must be Li Chunfeng.


    Li Chunfeng held a tray in his hand and two jade bottles on the tray, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    As soon as their eyes were frozen, they couldn''t help but move in their hearts. Is this the elixir of longevity that is famous in Chang''an City.


    Yuan Shoucheng looked around and said, "you Taoist friends, what xuandu Temple refined this time is not a fairy pill, but a human pill."


    "Ren Dan?"


    A group of Taoists could not help frowning. According to Taoist standards, Rendan is one level lower than Jindan.


    Yuan Tiangang poured out two kinds of pills one by one from Li Chunfeng''s tray. One pill was crystal clear and transparent, and the other pill was snow-white. He passed it to the Taoist priests to check one by one.


    Taoist Changsheng looked at the two pills in his hand. He couldn''t help sneering and said, "no gold pills, but those who take herbal medicine and repair small skills can prolong their life and die late, and they can''t be immortal."


    Yuan Shoucheng nodded slowly and said, "these two pills can''t make people live forever, but they are extremely effective for people.


    "The essence of human life, the lack of young age, the loss of old age, the poor way to make man Dan, the different conditions of the old and the young, respectively refining two different kinds of Dan medicine, for the sake of old and young, to supplement the essence of life."


    "I will cooperate with doctors on this pill. I will select 100 newborns and 100 elderly people to try the pill. None of the 100 newborns will get cartilage disease, and 100 elderly people will walk briskly with pain in their waist and legs." Yuan Shoucheng said.


    A crowd of Taoist people can not help but cry out. They pursue the immortal way, seeking only longevity. If longevity requires the essence of human life, it is not thought that Yuan Shoucheng first found the essence of life needed by the human body.


    Merton made a deep sigh. He did not think that Yuan Shoucheng even compared the effect of calcium supplementation to the essence of human life. In the end, he had not yet broken away from the ghosts and gods.


    "Yes! The pills of xuandu Temple do have miraculous effects!" Sun Simiao got up and said solemnly.


    When he saw the miraculous effect of Taoist pill, he was also surprised that the two thorny diseases of doctors had been solved in the hands of Taoism.


    With Sun Simiao''s testimony, with Sun Simiao''s character, it will not be false. Moreover, this matter is extremely easy to verify. If you lie, it is easy to be exposed. A group of Taoists believed seven or eight points in their hearts, and their eyes became hot.


    Seeing this, Yuan Shoucheng broke another strong news and said, "and this pill can be refined in large quantities."


    The Taoist priests were shocked. This pill has such an effect and can be refined in large quantities. Isn''t it a great good thing for Taoism!


    For Taoists, alchemy is not only expensive, but also very difficult and rare. The elixir of immortality of xuandu Temple perfectly solves this problem.


    "Daomen is very happy!"


    On the stand, in addition to Merton, a group of representatives of all schools sighed one after another.


    The Taoist way of seeking immortality has attracted people''s attention. If you add the miraculous effect of the elixir of longevity, it will be like a tiger adding wings.

 Chapter 313

    Taoism is booming, which is the ultimate wish of almost all Taoists. At this moment, all Taoists can''t help but put down their estrangement and rejoice from the heart.


    Even if Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao are unhappy with Yuan Shoucheng, they have to sigh that Yuan Shoucheng''s contribution to Taoism is too great.


    "Yuan Daoyou''s great kindness. Looking at the past dynasties of our Taoism, yuan Daoyou must be able to spread all over the world." Qingcheng Taoist priest couldn''t help sighing.


    When Yan shigu heard the speech, he immediately picked up his pencil and quickly remembered this moment. He thought that today was indeed a worthwhile trip. It must be famous in history.


    "The Taoist elixir is indeed the right way. This man Dan Peiji strengthens his foundation and lays the foundation for our golden elixir. It complements each other. This is a great good." Taoist Changsheng said proudly.


    In his opinion, this is not only the victory of Taoism, but also the victory of Taoist waidan sect. Even if this pill comes from Yuan Shoucheng of Neidan sect, it does belong to waidan.


    "Yes, it can be seen that the real way to seek immortality is that Taoist waidan has been bought."


    "Waidan is Taoist orthodoxy!"


    For a moment, a group of Taoist priests of the outer Dan sect cheered one after another. With this elixir of eternal life as an example, the outer Dan sect will surely crush the pulse of the inner Dan.


    The Taoist leaders of the inner alchemy sect wavered one after another. The inner alchemy sect took the human body as the tripod furnace, essence, Qi and God as the medicine, breath as the wind, and idea as the fire. It advocated to use their own hard practice to achieve the fairy way.


    Personal asceticism is too difficult and difficult to understand, so the waidan sect is powerful. In this way, the waidan sect is even more powerful. Many Taoists of the Neidan sect can''t help looking at Yuan Shoucheng, the leader of the Neidan sect.


    However, Yuan Shoucheng is calm and calm. Only he knows that this is not the credit of Taoism, but the guidance of Mohism.


    He knew the harm of the golden elixir before, but he had to let it go for the sake of the prosperity of Taoism. Now that Taoism has this elixir of longevity, the future of Taoism is very good. It''s time to cut off the cancer of waidan sect, otherwise it will drag down the whole Taoist family over time.


    It has to be said that Yuan Shoucheng''s eyes are extremely accurate. The theory of lead and mercury prevailed in the Tang Dynasty. Most of the kings, grandchildren and nobles of all dynasties took pills, but they were poisoned. Even the emperor was poisoned, and the pulse of Taoism changed from prosperity to decline.


    Thinking of this, Yuan Shoucheng must have got up and looked around and said, "since ancient times, the inner Dan sect and the outer Dan sect have been competing constantly. Today, it''s time to make a decision."


    "Yuan Daoyou can''t!" cried a Taoist priest of the inner Dan sect. In his opinion, Yuan Shoucheng is going to join the outer Dan sect.


    The waidan sect headed by Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao looked excited. Even yuan Shoucheng turned to waidan sect. What else do others have to worry about.


    Yuan Shoucheng didn''t hear the sad voice and said, "before that, I have a sad news to tell you that Taoist Xuanling has died after taking too much pills."


    "Taoist Xuanling?"


    All the Taoists were in an uproar. Taoist Xuanling is a familiar Taoist friend. He has profound Taoism and also cultivates both internal and external elixirs. He is only 50 years old. It can be said that he has a bright future. "


    "Taoist yuan''s words are different. Taoist Xuanling is a pioneer of our generation. It''s sad and respectable!" Taoist Changsheng argued skillfully.


    "Yes! Maybe Taoist Xuanling has become immortal after taking the elixir. It''s not necessarily that he has been ranked in the immortal class." Qingcheng Taoist priest retorted.


    "Yes!"


    A group of waidan sects said one after another.


    "Taoist priest Qingxuan, brother Yichen, senior Ziyan..." every time yuan Shoucheng said a name, all the Taoists were silent. These people were the elite of Taoism and died young. It can be said that each one was the loss of Taoism.


    "This is the loss of our Taoist school over the ages, not to mention the tanyue benefactor who died because of taking pills." Yuan Shoucheng''s tone was gentle, but it shocked everyone like thunder.


    Yan shigu wrote quickly and wanted to record everything. In his heart, he was already excited. Perhaps today, the mystery of the sudden death of the first emperor will be revealed.


    In the heart of Qingcheng''s view, he immediately retorted: "Wai Dan is the spirit of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, the crystal of mountains and rivers, and how the treasure of all things can cause death."


    "It''s normal for ordinary people to die of old illness. Is it caused by pills?" Taoist Shenxiao retorted.


    All the waidan sects shouted one after another. Citing scriptures, he refused to admit that his pill was harmful.


    "You guys, I will prove whether waidan is harmful to you personally." Yuan Shoucheng said solemnly.


    Taoist Changsheng''s face changed and said loudly, "yuan Daoyou, this matter is related to the lifeblood of Taoism. You should think clearly."


    Yuan Shoucheng replied decisively, "it''s about the lifeblood of the whole Taoism. We have to verify it ourselves. If the external pill is really harmful, that''s the root of the decline of Taoism."


    Yuan Shoucheng didn''t wait for the immortal Taoist to say again. With a move, Li Chunfeng appeared on the stand with a group of Taoist priests of xuandu temple and several boxes covered with black cloth.


    "As the saying goes, when a man gets the way, a chicken and a dog ascend to heaven. I was on a whim. I asked you for some pills and fed them to some animals a few days ago. Your Taoist friends guessed what the final result would be?" Yuan Shoucheng said miserably, pointing to several boxes covered with black cloth.


    The Taoists panicked and secretly scolded yuan Shoucheng for being insidious. They even set themselves up a few days in advance.


    "A live fish dies in a quarter of an hour, chickens and ducks die in an hour, sheep and dogs die in three hours."


    With Yuan Shoucheng''s words, the boxes covered with black cloth were opened to reveal the bodies of animals inside.


    The whole meeting hall was suddenly silent. All the people in the stands were stunned. They came to watch the ceremony a few days ago. Unexpectedly, they witnessed the desperate struggle between the Taoist inner Dan sect and the outer Dan sect. Only the pencil in master Yan Gu''s hand kept writing, and his face was flushed, just like taking a fairy pill.


    "As for cattle and horses..." Yuan Shoucheng didn''t go on, but stretched out his hand. Li Chunfeng led a yellow ox and a white horse to the front desk. Among them, the ox taking the pill had already been unstable. After a while, he fell down on the stand and couldn''t get up again. The white horse followed, kneeling on his four hooves and foaming at his mouth. It was very painful. It was obvious that he couldn''t live.


    "This is the ox and horse that took the pill a day ago, including the chickens and dogs before. They were all carried out under the witness of the Legalists, and there is nothing false. After that, if you don''t believe it, you can try it yourself." Yuan Shoucheng was bent and his voice was very excited.


    The doctor of law got up slowly and said proudly, "Han Zheng, a legalist, can notarize for this."


    Everyone was shocked. If the Legalists testified about this, it must be true. No one thought that the waidan sect, which supported half of the Taoism, collapsed when the Taoism was most prosperous.


    "A strong man breaks his wrists!"


    Seeing yuan Shoucheng''s painful expression, all the scholars moved in their hearts.


    The Taoist waidan sect has such serious defects. Even if it is not exposed at this time, it will certainly lead to great disasters in the future. At the moment, the Taoist sect is cleaning up its own portal, supported by Yuan Shoucheng''s longevity pill, so as to minimize the loss of the Taoist sect.


    "The inner alchemy sect unifies Taoism and adds the beneficial and harmless elixir of longevity to replace the outer alchemy sect. After this battle, Taoism has reached perfection and no weakness!"


    The representatives of all schools of thought could not help but secretly report.

 Chapter 314

    "Man is the spirit of all things, how can he be compared with livestock!" the Taoist priest of longevity said categorically.


    "That''s right! Our refined elixir is for people''s use. How can livestock bear the power of elixir." many Taoist priests of foreign Dan sect struggled to death and didn''t admit that their elixir was harmful.


    Yuan Shoucheng asked, "what if people take pills to get sick?"


    I saw a yuan Tiangang holding a trembling waxy yellow man to the public.


    "It''s him?" Merton was surprised. He saw that the waxy yellow man was the man who bought cinnabar in the back street of xuandu temple when he went to look for saltpeter in summer.


    I haven''t seen him for a few months. He is terminally ill, like a candle in the wind.


    "This is the most loyal believer of Taoism. He has been refining lead, mercury and cinnabar for Taoism all the year round, but I didn''t expect that this person is deeply damaged by lead and mercury. Because he has been exposed to lead and mercury for many years, the poison has entered the five zang organs and there is no medicine to cure." Yuan Shoucheng said sadly.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing. He had advised this man at that time, but this man didn''t listen. If he could get away at that time, there might be a turn for the better.


    Sun Simiao got up and said, "I can confirm that this person is indeed the poison of lead and mercury in his body. The most prominent features of the poison of lead and mercury are hand and foot Sinian, bleeding gums and blue and black mercury lines in his mouth."


    Sun Simiao said that the waidan sect could not help holding their hands and confining their words.


    "This person is a mortal body. Naturally, he can''t bear the power of pills. We practitioners can get through all the days of the week. Our internal organs are accessible and integrated with nature. All heaven and earth belong to our body. Even if there is this poison, it has been expelled from our body." Taoist Changsheng said proudly.


    Among the waidan sect, he is the most calm, because he has no symptoms of lead and mercury poisoning at all.


    All the Taoists around could not help but be determined. They immediately seemed to have grasped the straw.


    "Immortal Taoist friend, I don''t know how poor Tao is?" Yuan Shoucheng asked.


    Taoist Changsheng didn''t know why, so he was proud to answer truthfully: "yuan Daoyou''s Taoism is profound, and I sigh that I''m not as good as myself!"


    Yuan Shoucheng nodded and said, "I have taken five pills of elixir refined by you today. Now I feel that I will die soon!"


    As soon as Yuan Shoucheng''s voice fell, his face flushed, and a wisp of red blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.


    "Yuan Daoyou!"


    In the stands, all kinds of scholars suddenly rose up and looked at Yuan Shoucheng inconceivably. They didn''t expect yuan Shoucheng to prove the harm of pills in this way.


    "Uncle!"


    Yuan Tiangang was shocked and hurriedly came forward to help yuan Shoucheng.


    "Yuan Daoyou, why do you force each other?" the Qingcheng Taoist priest said sadly.


    In this way, the pill, which the Taoist waidan sect is even more proud of, will completely decline.


    "What I have done is for the sake of Taoism. The pill is harmful. How can I hide it forever? Once it leads to a terrible disaster, I''m afraid it will be the decline of Taoism." Yuan Shoucheng gasped.


    A group of Taoists could not help but remain silent for a while. How could they not be aware of the mystery of alchemy all year round? It was just that alchemy was the most powerful means for them to attract dignitaries and dignitaries. In the face of interests, they automatically ignored it.


    "Don''t talk to yuan Daoyou. Please come and have a look!" Sun Simiao hurried to the road.


    "Hurry, hurry, please, Master Sun!" Yuan Tiangang hurriedly said.


    Sun Simiao felt yuan Shoucheng''s pulse was extremely overbearing and disordered, which would be extremely abnormal for a person who practices Taoism all the year round.


    "I''m tired of going back to heaven!" Sun Simiao shook his head sadly.


    "Brother sun, don''t be in vain. My body knows that Yuan''s move will disrupt the foundation laid by Ge Hong''s ancestors for Taoism for hundreds of years. Only by thanking his sins with death can I feel at ease." Yuan Shoucheng said calmly.


    "Your elixir is harmful. It''s your wrong refining method. The poor elixir not only doesn''t have the harm of mercury, but also makes me regenerate my black hair and return to my old age. It''s the real way of longevity." Taoist Changsheng said fiercely when he gritted his teeth.


    "The same is true of my thunder pill. After the baptism of the sky thunder on July 49th, all the harmful things are gone. After taking it, you can go straight to the way of longevity." Taoist Shenxiao is also unwilling to be weak.


    At the moment, the whole waidan sect is completely destroyed. If they can prove that their pill is the right way, isn''t it a unified waidan sect.


    The dim eyes of the Wai Dan sect suddenly lit up. Yes, their own Dan Road was wrong. Aren''t there Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao?


    Taoist Changsheng''s returning children and Taoist Shenxiao''s five thunder Dharma, but their personal experience can''t be fake. Doesn''t that prove that waidan sect is not the wrong way.


    Yuan Shoucheng looked at erhan calmly: "although I don''t understand how you two can achieve black hair and attract sky thunder, I believe there must be someone in the world who can crack it."


    "Hahaha, what I have practiced is the way of immortals. How can I be afraid of being instructed by others? I want to see who you are talking about?" Taoist Changsheng looked around and sneered.


    "I''m curious, too!" Taoist Shenxiao followed his voice.


    Others couldn''t help but be curious. They couldn''t help looking around. Yuan Shoucheng looked at the stand and prayed: "Mo Xiaoyou, I''m dying. This is the only thing to ask before I die. Please give me a shot for the sake of protecting everyone from the harm of pills."


    Everyone was in an uproar. They didn''t expect that Yuan Shoucheng was talking about the MOH family.


    "Hahaha, how can a yellow haired child understand the Taoist alchemy? Yuan Daoyou, are you in a hurry to seek medical treatment?" Taoist Changsheng sneered.


    Although he had heard about the legend of Merton, he couldn''t help but despise it when he saw that the Mohist son was young, and his tone was extremely sarcastic.


    Taoist Shenxiao also immediately settled down. Merton''s age was deceptive. He didn''t pay attention to it at all.


    Merton lamented that as a Mohist, he should not have been involved in the affairs of Taoism. Unexpectedly, he was forced to the front desk by Yuan Shoucheng.


    Looking at the sarcastic Taoist priest Changsheng, Merton was not angry, but was extremely appreciative. Looking at the Taoist priest Changsheng, he said, "Taoist brother is really brilliant. A small means has made you play tricks? The Mohists are willing to become a monk and buy your hair dyeing skills!"


    "The secret of hair dyeing!"


    Everyone was struck by lightning and couldn''t believe moving left and right on Taoist Changsheng and Mohist Zi.


    Merton sneered: "our cloth, whether silk or linen, was originally white. The reason why we wear colorful clothes depends on the technology of printing and dyeing. However, Taoist Changsheng found another way to use the secret technology of printing and dyeing on our hair. It''s really brilliant."


    When Merton finished, many people suddenly realized that Yuan Shoucheng''s face was flushed and suddenly realized.


    "Yellow haired child, dare you slander me. I''m black haired, but I''m from rejuvenation. How can you slander me." Taoist Changsheng fought back in a shrill voice as if he had been trampled seven inches.


    "It''s easy to judge whether your hair is dyed or not. Just take one of your hair to prove that your hair is growing all the time. In addition to the scalp, there are also some new hair under the scalp that has not been dyed. Naturally, it''s the original hair color. Taoist friends can dare to pull one out to prove innocence."


    Taoist Changsheng suddenly collapsed to the ground as if discouraged at his speech.

 Chapter 315

    Seeing the response of Taoist priest Changsheng, everyone immediately understood that what Mohist Zi said was absolutely true.


    No one thought that the secret of returning to old children, on which Taoist priest Changsheng has been famous, was to dye white hair black, just like dyeing cloth.


    Before that, people had always thought that the immortal Taoist was an expert in Taoism and would receive a gift from heaven. The white hair returned to black. They had never considered the law of printing and dyeing.


    After the people wanted to understand, they suddenly realized.


    Once upon a time, Taoist Changsheng was also unknown, but his white hair turned black overnight. He claimed to have obtained the secret of Xiandao, which made him famous in one fell swoop.


    "It is said that the family of Taoist Changsheng was an aristocratic family of printing and dyeing before he practiced Taoism." an old Taoist said the secret. People woke up like a dream. It turned out that the truth was so simple.


    "The MOH family is worthy of being the MOH family. It can see through the means by which the immortal Taoist depends on to become famous."


    "The world is white, but I am the only one who is black! Taoist Changsheng shows his black dyeing skills in front of the Mohist school. He is really a master."


    Everyone sighed in their hearts that Taoist Changsheng had never been torn down in his life. Unexpectedly, he was planted in the hands of Mozi. It was a bad time.


    The representatives of a hundred schools of thought were speechless. They always looked at mojiazi a little more inexplicably. Mojiazi was indeed a part-time student of a hundred schools, but he even dabbled in unsophisticated acrobatics such as printing and dyeing. He was crazy.


    Merton also smiled bitterly. This hair dyeing technology has become a rotten street in future generations. Among the Taoist priests with white hair, the Taoist priest with black hair is as dazzling as a firefly in the dark. He can''t do it if he doesn''t pay attention.


    Taoist Changsheng was defeated by the Mo family. In a twinkling of an eye, Taoist Shenxiao was the only one left in the waidan sect. In an instant, everyone focused on Taoist Shenxiao.


    Taoist Shenxiao was in a panic and said, "I''m five thunder orthodox Dharma is Taoist orthodoxy, and the son of Mohism is a member of Mohism. How can I know the mystery of Taoist orthodoxy Tianlei?"


    Merton looked at Yuan Shoucheng, who was already withered and withered, sighed and said, "thunder is the most mysterious and powerful thing between heaven and earth. In fact, it''s not just your Taoist development of thunder. After years of observation, the ancestors of Mohism found that thunder only appears when there are clouds, and it''s impossible to break a bolt in the clear sky."


    People can''t help nodding. This is indeed a natural phenomenon of heaven and earth. In this way, Taoist Shenxiao must be greasy.


    "No matter what you say, it''s hard to slander me." Taoist Shenxiao said strongly.


    Merton smiled and said, "I heard that your refining of leidan was never in front of everyone, but in a secret room. Everyone only heard the thunder, but didn''t see the lightning. And the boy just passed by you, and I saw a strong special smell on you.


    You don''t know yet! I once came to the Taoist school to buy saltpeter. Naturally, I''m very familiar with the taste of saltpeter. In addition, I once read doctor sun''s "the method of sulfur in the Dan Sutra" and saw a use of saltpeter. "


    Everyone''s eyes focused on Merton and Sun Simiao. Sun Simiao was also stunned. He wrote books, but he didn''t know about Leifa.


    "Saltpeter, sulfur, realgar, soap horn, honey......" every time Merton reads one sentence, the momentum of Taoist Shenxiao declines. After Merton reads the gunpowder formula of sulfur yellow method in the Dan Sutra, Taoist Shenxiao immediately seems to have been drained of his essence.


    The smell of gunpowder is so unique that Merton can''t smell it.


    "This is the Taoist method of subduing fire. How can it be thunder?" Sun Simiao didn''t understand.


    Merton explained: "the method of subduing fire is too violent. If it is sealed and ignited, the flame will burst suddenly in a closed space, just like thunder."


    All the Taoists suddenly realized that they often met the scene of fire burst. Now they think of it, it is indeed very similar to the sound of thunder. They thought about the sky thunder wholeheartedly, but never thought it was the method of subduing fire.


    "It''s ironic that I didn''t expect that the fairy way I pursued all my life was wrong." the Qingcheng Taoist priest smiled miserably.


    The Taoist priests of waidan sect were also sad, crying and laughing.


    So far, the Taoist waidan sect was completely destroyed,


    Merton couldn''t help but look at the Taoist waidan school with pity. If the Taoist waidan school could continue to develop, China''s scientific and technological level would have taken off long ago. There are those terrible lessons for future generations. It''s a pity that these people have deviated from the road.


    Many scholars and hundreds of schools were silent. They were invited by Taoism to watch the ceremony, but they didn''t expect to personally witness the unification of Taoism. Historian Yan shigu wrote hard and didn''t let go of every detail.


    "Cough!"


    Yuan Shoucheng coughed up a mouthful of blood. With the help of Yuan Tiangang, he tried to stand up and said, "the inner Dan and the outer Dan are all the inheritance of Taoism. I''m not selfish, but for everyone''s future. Please forgive me."


    All the Taoists were silent. The poison of the pill was indeed the biggest hidden danger of Taoism. Maybe one day they could push Taoism to the point of doom. Although it was the best choice for the strong man to break his wrist, after all, the pain of breaking his wrist still hurt Taoism. Even the inner Alchemy sect was not happy. A path of immortality was proved to be wrong, This is still unbearable for Taoists who are bent on seeking immortality.


    "Today, I want to thank you for your death. I hope you can put down your prejudices and forgive me for my reckless actions for the future of Taoism." Yuan Shoucheng said solemnly, with a trace of holy brilliance on his face.


    Seeing yuan Shoucheng, a hundred schools of thought couldn''t help respecting him. He was really dedicated to the Tao.


    For the sake of the future of Taoism, we have to give up the momentum of the vigorous development of Taoism, rectify the vein of Taoist waidan, and apologize with death to eliminate the resentment of Taoist waidan sect and consolidate Taoism as a whole. Taoism seems to be damaged and will be stronger in the future.


    "It''s really respectable and admirable for Taoist friends to sacrifice their lives for the Tao!" Sun Simiao


    Qingcheng Taoist priest said sadly, "yuan Daoyou, do you want to kill all the external elixirs?"


    Waidan has been inherited for 300 years since Ge Hong came. There are many believers. Naturally, many people are unwilling to be disappointed.


    Yuan Shoucheng said: "no, although the external Dan pulse can not become an immortal, the external Dan pulse is still the treasure of my Taoism. I have found a better way for the external Dan pulse."


    Yuan Shoucheng turned to Merton with difficulty and said, "from now on, Taoism will also cooperate with hundreds of schools, and the external Dan vein of Taoism will cooperate with Mohism to jointly explore the mystery of heaven and earth.


    As for the theory of alchemy and longevity, don''t mention it again. If the elixir refined by any school of Taoism wants to be handed down in the future, it must pass today''s test under the notarization of Legalists and be tested by doctors to be harmless before it can be circulated. "


    All the schools of thought suddenly burst into an uproar. Unexpectedly, following the arrival of Mohism, Taoism also followed on the road of opening up.


    After a little thought, they suddenly understood yuan Shoucheng''s intention. In this way, Taoism seems to be shackled, but it ensures the long-term prosperity of Taoism.


    "I will abide by the last wishes of Taoist friends." a group of waidan sects couldn''t help but say sadly.


    Yuan Shoucheng breathed a sigh of relief, slowly sat cross legged and recited.


    "Limitless Heavenly Master!"


    A generation of Taoist heroes, Yuan Shoucheng died.

 Chapter 316

    Soon, the sound of xuandu Temple running out sounded, and the news of the emergence of old immortal yuan Shoucheng soon spread from xuandu temple to the whole Chang''an city.


    Yuan Shoucheng is famous not only in Taoism, but also in Chang''an city. Since Yuan Shoucheng took out the elixir of immortality, his reputation as an old immortal has soared in Chang''an city,


    "God is so unfair. Why did a good man like old immortal yuan suddenly leave!"


    After hearing the news, many people in Chang''an City were immediately sad.


    A white haired old man angrily scolded when he heard the speech: "don''t talk nonsense. It''s a gratifying thing for the old fairy to get the way and go away. There''s nothing to be sad about!"


    Naturally, the things in xuandu temple will not spread among the people. Of course, ordinary people do not know how many twists and turns and strange things have happened. Yuan Shoucheng should have died normally.


    Three days later, Yuan Shoucheng was buried in the ground. Countless people in Chang''an city came to see him off. After hearing the news, Li Shimin stopped the court for a day to show his condolences.


    A generation of Taoist legends ended here. However, what yuan Shoucheng did can affect Taoism for thousands of years.


    Xuandu temple.


    All the Taoist priests of waidan sect were dejected one by one, as if they had lost their energy and spirit, and were boring.


    After Yuan Shoucheng was buried, they personally tested their pills with the method of discussing pills. The results were no exception. All animals taking pills suffered heavy casualties.


    They have to accept the fact that the pill of gold and stone is indeed harmful to the human body. Even under the exploration of the drug king Sun Simiao, they are poisoned to varying degrees.


    "You guys, I''ve decided to retire from the mountains and forests. I''m not going out of the mountain. I''m just living the rest of my life!" said the leader of Qingcheng temple in despair.


    "Whatever!"


    A group of Taoists got up and said that the waidan sect was suddenly being beaten down from the clouds and stayed here to make a mockery. If yuan Shoucheng hadn''t died, they would have left long ago.


    "Taoist priest, wait a minute!"


    Squeak! The door of the side hall opened, and a young man came in and said aloud.


    "Mojiazi!"


    A group of waidan sect looked at Merton and no longer had any hatred. Although Merton''s move exposed the deception of Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao, it gave waidan sect a fatal blow.


    However, Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao are liars after all. Although Merton''s move cut off the last hope of waidan sect, it also completely removed the hidden dangers of Taoism in the future. Otherwise, I''m afraid the Neidan sect and waidan sect of Taoism will still struggle in the future.


    "What are you doing here?" the Qingcheng Taoist priest said angrily. Although he no longer resented Mo Jiazi, he didn''t have a good impression on him.


    Morton saluted respectfully and said, "before his death, Taoist yuan once ordered the Taoist waidan to cooperate with the Mohist,


    Qingcheng Taoist priest smiled miserably and said, "I am destined to be despised by the world. Do you want to cooperate with us


    Although they agreed to cooperate with the Mohist school to explore the secrets of heaven and earth, waidan was not interested in the cooperation of the Mohist school. Although there was no doubt about Merton''s ability, the secrets hidden by Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao for many years were discovered by him at a glance.


    But Merton is a 15-year-old boy after all. Let their once high and enlightened people cooperate with a teenager, so that they can''t save face.


    "If you live in seclusion in the mountains and forests and waste your knowledge, I''m afraid that''s the biggest loss of Taoism." Merton said positively.


    "But the pill we refined is harmful to human body. This is the wrong way. Let it be buried with the old way!" the Qingcheng Taoist priest said sadly.


    The Taoist priests also nodded one after another, disheartened.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Taoist masters, from the boy''s point of view, there is no wrong knowledge, just the wrong place. You just don''t find how powerful your Taoism is."


    Merton''s words immediately made all Taoists look at him.


    "That''s true!" many Taoist priests were skeptical. In fact, they were unwilling to sink.


    Merton nodded and said, "I think you Taoist masters are the real pioneers of Taoism. In order to seek immortality, you asked, stay away from the world of mortals and spend your whole life''s efforts. How can the knowledge so studied be useless? You just used it in the wrong place.


    Merton stretched out his hand and patted. A figure came in. When the Taoist priests saw it, they immediately clenched their teeth and said, "Taoist Changsheng, you liar!"


    "Mojiazi, are you watching our jokes?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the hearts of many waidan sects, they hated Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao. They regarded them as the last hope of waidan sect, but they didn''t expect that they were the biggest disappointment.


    Taoist Changsheng couldn''t help shrinking his head and said, "you Taoist friends, I''m ashamed of you. I''m here to make amends today."


    However, many Taoist priests of the foreign pill sect snorted coldly and looked contemptuously at Taoist Changsheng. They are all cultivating immortals and refining pills. They are all sincere in their hearts and wholeheartedly pursue immortality. They are the biggest moths of Taoism.


    Taoist Changsheng smiled awkwardly and couldn''t help looking at Merton. Merton stepped forward and said, "you guys, I only saw that Taoist Changsheng lied to you. I don''t know if anyone thought of why the world pursues Taoist Changsheng so much."


    "It''s not his black hair that deceived the world." a Taoist priest said coldly.


    Taoist Changsheng''s head dropped lower.


    When Merton heard the speech, he smiled and said, "that means that the world doesn''t want to have white hair. Everyone yearns for black hair. However, it''s so difficult to return to old age, but the immortal Taoist friends can make it easy for the world."


    A group of Taoists were shocked when they heard the speech and suddenly looked at Merton and Taoist Changsheng.


    "You mean, let the world dye the white head black." Qingcheng Taoist priest said inconceivably.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, you can imagine. If everyone in the Tang Dynasty has black hair, who will admit that he is old? If the heart is not old and the person is not old, is it not a kind of immortality?"


    Merton thought of those black haired uncles and aunts in the streets of later generations, sweating like rain in the square and strengthening their health. Which one is really old?


    Taoist Changsheng suddenly held his head high. He never thought that his secret had such a great function and was so in line with Taoist thought.


    "Heart is not old, people are not old!" the Qingcheng Taoist priest moved in his heart and muttered to himself, "but it''s just an illusion after all!"


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies, or Zhuang Zhou dreams of butterflies? Who can tell?"


    A group of Taoists could not help but brighten their eyes. They were all Taoist powers. Naturally, they could know what Merton meant. No one thought that the means of a liar of Taoist waidan sect could have such a role.


    Maybe they are really like what Mohist said. The waidan sect just went in the wrong direction. Finally, there was a ripple in the dead heart of the waidan sect.

 Chapter 317

    "Ladies and gentlemen, the Mohist school increased the price by 2000 Guan to buy the hair dyeing secret skill of Taoist Changsheng, but Taoist Changsheng insisted on not selling it. He resolutely dedicated this hair dyeing secret skill to Taoist school to atone for his sins." Merton looked at Taoist Changsheng and said.


    All the waidan sects moved in their hearts and couldn''t help looking at the immortal Taoist aside. They couldn''t help nodding slightly. The secret skill of hair dyeing is really just a tool to make money in the hands of other hundred schools, but it has immeasurable benefits to Taoism.


    After the pill of longevity, Taoism has gone further in the way of longevity. It can be imagined that when the elderly take the pill of longevity, they will have strong bones, walk like flying, and then catch black hair, just like a young man. Who will think they are old?


    Suddenly, a group of waidan sect finally realized that they had a magical thing in their hands that could compete with the elixir of longevity, that is, the secret skill of Taoist Changsheng in dyeing hair. With this skill, waidan sect has regained its foothold in Taoism.


    "It''s a great kindness for immortal Taoist friends to do this. With this secret skill, Taoism will go further." the leader of Qingcheng temple said with a beard.


    A group of waidan sects also nodded one after another, which can be regarded as re accepting the return of Changsheng Taoist friends.


    "I''ve seen you, Taoist friends." Taoist Changsheng saluted. These days, he has experienced a double heaven of ice and fire. He has experienced the scene that the leader of the waidan sect forced yuan Shoucheng, and also the pain of being exposed and falling from the cloud. Today, he returned to the Taoist waidan. One wave and three twists are really a lot of feelings.


    "Thanks for the help of the Mohist school. The Taoist external pill will always remember this kindness. However, our reputation will be ruined after this incident. Even if the Mohist School ignores the past grievances and cooperates with us, we will have no face to stay in the capital anymore." the leader of Qingcheng Temple smiled bitterly.


    Other external alchemy sects also nodded one after another. The toxic body of alchemy hit them too much.


    "What if I let you stay?" with a dignified voice, Li Shimin appeared in front of the crowd.


    "Emperor!"


    "Sin way knocks at the emperor!"


    The Taoist priests were shocked and frightened. They quickly fell to the ground. The pill was poisonous. It can be said that the king, sun and nobility suffered the most. Even the emperors suffered a lot. At the moment, Li Shimin appeared in front of the people. Why didn''t they be frightened?


    "Excuse me, everyone. I''ve heard about the Dan conference. Although you made a big mistake, it was an unintentional loss after all. The so-called unknown is innocent, and I won''t punish you." Li Shimin said kindly.


    "Thank you, your majesty." a group of Taoists immediately shed tears of gratitude. With Li Shimin''s guarantee, they are no longer afraid to settle accounts after autumn.


    Li Shimin then said solemnly, "I let you stay in the capital because there is something in the hands of the Taoist waidan sect, which is related to the future of the Tang Dynasty. Please help me."


    "The things of the waidan sect are related to the future of the Tang Dynasty!" the young waidan sects looked at each other. When did the waidan sect, which was despised by the world, become a sweet cake.


    "Your Majesty, please make it clear that everything that belongs to our Taoist school must be allowed." Qingcheng Temple Lord came forward and said.


    When Li Shimin waved, a familiar figure appeared in front of the Taoist priests,


    "Shenxiaozi!"


    The Taoist priests were stunned. No one thought it was him.


    Then the people thought of the importance of Taoist Changsheng''s hair dyeing skill just now. They were stunned. Could it be that Taoist Shenxiao''s fake thunder method is related to the fate of the Tang Dynasty.


    A group of waidan sects could not help lamenting what the world was. They devoted themselves to the Tao and ended up in disgrace. Taoist Shenxiao, like Taoist Changsheng, was deceived and cheated, and could even make something that startled Li Shimin.


    They guessed right. Li Shimin really liked the gunpowder method of Taoist Shenxiao. This most primitive gunpowder method is not rare in the waidan sect. The best way for Li Shimin to dominate the secret recipe of gunpowder is to gather a group of waidan sects under the control of the imperial court.


    "You guessed right. What can affect the fate of the Tang Dynasty is Taoist Shenxiao''s method of subduing fire." Merton nodded.


    Taoist Qingcheng said in his heart, "it''s true!"


    Merton then said, "the Taoist external alchemy has cooperated with the Mohist school. It''s not empty talk. Now let me use this method of subduing fire to personally practice the secret skills of the Taoist school and the magic cooperation of the Mohist school."


    "Saltpeter, sulfur, honey, charcoal, alum, borax..." Merton put all the things used by Taoist alchemy in front of everyone, but it was not too early that they had been ground into powder.


    "This is doctor sun''s method of subduing fire and all the raw materials used by Taoist priest Shenxiao to make thunder." Merton showed it to the people.


    A group of waidan sects nodded. In fact, Sun Simiao and Taoist Shenxiao used this formula. They also used it when refining pills.


    Merton took out a portion of all the raw materials, mixed them evenly, put them in an open place outside the hall, sprinkled them into a long strip, and lit them with a fire fold.


    The most primitive gunpowder burst into flames, and suddenly a pungent smell filled the whole side hall.


    But this most primitive gunpowder formula burns slowly and has a lot of residue.


    Merton said: "the boy thinks that this formula needs to be changed. First of all, those unfit for ignition in the formula can be removed.


    Merton finished and removed some minerals such as alum and borax.


    "Just keep one of the same kind, keep the best!" Merton continued.


    Soon, honey and carbonized soap horn were removed, leaving only charcoal.


    After several rounds of testing, Merton left only three kinds, namely saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal.


    Merton then took one point from each of the three items, mixed them evenly, and burned again. Sure enough, the flame was much faster than the original gunpowder.


    As soon as the Taoist priest''s eyes lit up, they could not help nodding slightly. The ink technique was really unique. The power of the side of subduing the fire doubled through Merton''s hand.


    However, this is not over. Merton continued: "the boy thinks this formula can be further improved in proportion."


    The previous formula of Merton was one to one. Next, Merton tested again and again according to the formula of different proportions.


    Many people of waidan sect were stunned. The method of subduing fire matched by Merton was more and more powerful every time.


    "Boom!"


    The roar of the flame sounded, and with a burst of pungent white eyes, the flame jumped out very high.


    "One nitrodisulfonate seven charcoal, which is the most perfect formula, needs further tests if it needs to be perfect." Merton said positively after seeing the effect this time.


    Li Shimin and a kind of waidan sect watched Merton''s amazing skill increase the power of Taoist fire subduing method dozens of times. They were shocked. The combination of ink technology and Taoist technology had such a magical reaction.

 Chapter 318

    The backyard of xuandu temple.


    Merton carefully poured the gunpowder into a ten jin wine jar, then left the lead, and then compacted the seal, which wiped the cold sweat.


    "This is what you said that it has the power of thunder and can destroy the city and pass." Li Shimin''s voice sounded quietly behind.


    Morton was startled, turned around and saw Li Shimin behind him. He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please step back! It''s too dangerous."


    "Dangerous?" Li Shimin looked at a wine jar with a weight of only ten kilograms. He didn''t think so.


    Merton hurriedly advised, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. I once heard that when Taoist priest Shenxiao first controlled the law of sky thunder, it was the thunder that vibrated. The sound spread several miles away, the house was destroyed and survived."


    Taoist Shenxiao could not help blushing and said in shame: "the sin is that he was ignorant at the beginning and didn''t know the harm of the method of subduing fire. He rashly piled up a lot in the alchemy room. It was articles such as sulfur and saltpeter, which caused an explosion by accident.


    Taoist Shenxiao nodded and said, "after this incident, sin Dao moved his evil thoughts. He put a small amount of fire into the bamboo and ignited it. Sure enough, it made a sound like thunder. Sin Dao claimed to have practiced the five thunder Dharma and deceived the world. Please forgive me."


    When Taoist Shenxiao arrived, he had nothing to say. He directly poured beans out of a bamboo tube and said his deception completely.


    When the waidan Patton, they suddenly said, how can there be human power to control Tianlei in this world.


    Merton nodded and said to Li Shimin, "this is the inspiration for the boy. If the method of subduing fire wants to be powerful, it must be ignited in a closed space. Coupled with the boy''s purification, the power is doubled. Your majesty, although it is only about ten kilograms, its power is probably more powerful than destroying the alchemy room of Taoist priest Shenxiao at that time."


    Li Shimin got up and quickly stepped back more than ten steps.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "the boy thinks that your majesty should step back at least 50 steps, and there should be at least a high wall to ensure safety."


    Maybe the example of Taoist Shenxiao destroying Dan Fang was the first. Fortunately, Li Shimin didn''t show off his strength. Although he didn''t retreat behind the 50 step high wall, he hid behind a forest tree 30 steps behind.


    Xuandu temple has nothing else, but there are many big trees. Other foreign Dan sects also hide behind the big trees according to their words. Only Taoist Shenxiao felt a palpitation in his heart, consciously obeyed what Merton said, and obediently hid outside the courtyard wall 50 meters away. Taoist Changsheng turned his eyes and followed him, hiding with Taoist Shenxiao.


    Merton was helpless. Fortunately, everyone''s safety was guaranteed. In addition, only by letting them experience the power of explosion can they really pay attention to it.


    "Please hide well, please. Pay attention to safety, and the minister began to ignite." Merton confirmed again. Then he carefully took out the fire fold, lit a long note as a delay to ignite the fire, and then ran frantically out. More than ten steps later, Merton suddenly fell here, covered his ears with his hands and opened his mouth,


    "Boom!"


    The voice sounded like thunder, and even the ground trembled a few times.


    Merton, who fell to the ground, immediately felt a wave of air coming from his back, raging wildly. At the same time, broken pots shot everywhere, vegetation flew everywhere, and a large amount of pungent smoke came to his face.


    After three breaths, Merton waited for the smoke to disperse a little. Then he shook his roaring head, pulled away the broken grass on his head and stood up.


    Merton looked at Li Shimin''s direction for the first time. Li Shimin quietly showed half of his head and looked stunned.


    "Your majesty!" there was a cry of Xi Junmai at the gate of the backyard. Then there was a sound of soldiers, and a large number of soldiers rushed up one after another.


    There was such a noise in the backyard of xuandu temple. How can we not disturb him? We should know that Li Shimin''s safety has a problem. Naturally, they can''t get rid of it.


    "Don''t come here, stand by and prohibit everyone from entering from now on!" Li Shimin suddenly woke up and shouted.


    He was just here, but he saw the huge flame produced by the explosion with his own eyes and felt such powerful power and earth shaking power produced by the explosion. Naturally, the fewer people know, the safer they are, so that they can be firmly controlled in the hands of the imperial court.


    "Yes!" after Xi Junmai saw that Li Shimin was all right, he took the order and left.


    Soon the sound of soldiers and horses outside was silent, but the backyard of xuandu temple was boiling.


    Despite being dazzled by the shock, the waidan sects hiding behind the tree rushed to the place of explosion. A huge hole was opened in the place where the wine jar was placed, revealing the yellow new soil below, and the broken tiles exploded around. Many of them were deeply embedded in the trunk and could not be pulled out.


    "The power of the thunder is nothing more than that!" the Qingcheng Taoist priest murmured to himself.


    "Such a powerful force is actually a Taoist art!" a group of Taoist external Dan sects said in an incredible way one after another, one by one involuntarily looking at the Taoist Shenxiao who had just come.


    Taoist Shenxiao was immediately afraid and said, "fortunately, the power of the fire subduing method of sin at that time was very small. If there was the fire subduing method made by Lord Mo, I''m afraid there would be no whole body."


    Everyone nodded, and Merton''s purification method increased his power by more than ten times.


    Merton modestly said, "if there is no Taoist method of subduing fire, even if the Mohist method is exquisite, it is difficult for a skillful woman to cook without rice."


    The Taoist priest of waidan sect couldn''t help laughing bitterly. I''m afraid it will be many years before Taoists can obtain this secret recipe in the future, and the ink technology can make it come out decades or even hundreds of years earlier, which is enough to shock people''s hearts.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "this is the credit of the cooperation between the two Mo Dao countries. You can''t do without it."


    "Obey your Majesty''s orders!" a group of waidan sect nodded.


    Merton had the method of subduing fire. It is reasonable to claim that this method belongs to the Mohist school. However, the Mohist son did not do so, but frankly admitted that this is a Taoist secret skill. This alone has won the trust of many Taoist waidan sects.


    "Ink technique! Taoism!"


    Li Shimin was shocked. He came here today because Merton wanted to personally show him the power of Taoism to destroy cities and pass. However, after seeing it with his own eyes, he knew that what Merton said was not exaggerated.


    The first achievement of the cooperation between Mohism and Taoism has such great effect that Li Shimin can''t help but be more optimistic about the great prospect of the cooperation between Mohism and Taoism.


    Taoist Shenxiao turned his eyes and quickly bowed down in the tunnel: "the method of subduing fire is the method of sin to deceive the world. This thing has the power of heavenly thunder. It is no longer suitable to use this name. Please give it a name."


    Merton was shocked. He couldn''t help scolding Taoist Shenxiao for his cunning. He even hugged Li Shimin''s thigh at this time.


    Taoist Shenxiao was secretly proud. He had been exposed to the scam. Naturally, he could not be as beautiful as before. Moreover, this side was not as useful to Taoism as the secret skill of hair dyeing. However, he didn''t expect that the twists and turns had been valued by Li Shimin. In this way, he was still in the wind.


    Li Shimin looked motionless, nodded slightly, looked at a small pile of black powdered objects under his feet and said, "this object looks like medicine powder. All the objects are the things of doctors for treating diseases. The burning flame soars. What if it''s called gunpowder?"


    Merton sighed in his heart. Sure enough, the inertia of history is still so strong that the name of gunpowder finally came out.


    "Thank you, your majesty for your name!" Taoist priest Shenxiao quickly flattered. After the name of the method of subduing fire was changed, his black history was naturally turned over.


    Li Shimin doesn''t care about the dark history of Taoist Shenxiao. All his mind is attracted by gunpowder. Ten kilograms of gunpowder can have such great power. What if it''s a hundred times, a thousand times? At that time, it will not be impossible to destroy the city and customs with this gunpowder. "

 Chapter 319

    Although the black gunpowder of later generations was gradually eliminated, it still played an earth shaking power. Later generations of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom just used the method of attacking the city with black gunpowder, dug a tunnel to bury the gunpowder under the city wall, then filled the secret road and detonated it. Except for super cities such as Nanjing and Beijing, the ordinary city wall is as fragile as a piece of paper, which is also the way of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom from south to north, The biggest reason for being invincible all the way.


    Merton did not throw out all the powerful killers of later generations at one time. Even this gunpowder jar explosion was thunderous. It looked powerful, but the real lethality was not enough. It was the military''s business to really develop powerful weapons.


    "Hahaha, God bless the Tang Dynasty, and God''s troops are in our Tang Dynasty!" Li Shimin''s heart is extremely happy. Such a powerful force even subverts Li Shimin''s understanding of weapons.


    All the waidan sects are like a storm in their hearts. It turns out that their way is really wrong. Although waidan together is harmful to the human body, there is no doubt that waidan Taoism is a very useful knowledge. They never thought they could control such a strong power in their own hands.


    Of course, what they regret most is that this power is not the power of thunder, but further proves that it is wrong for them to pursue the way of immortality.


    Merton took the opportunity to persuade him and said, "Taoist masters have also seen the power of this thing. The external pill of Taoism studies the sky and explores the secrets between heaven and earth. If you hide your knowledge in the mountains, it will be a great waste."


    A group of Taoist priests couldn''t help shaking. Yes! The Mohist school now showed him a broad road they had never found. Over time, their achievements may not be lower than those of the Neidan school.


    Li Shimin also had a sudden change of mind. Since this thing has such powerful power, and these alchemy sects all know the formula of gunpowder, Li Shimin certainly wants to catch them all and work for the country.


    "But what we pursue is the way of eternal life. This thing is too tyrannical. It will certainly kill countless people in the future, which will only increase sin!" a white haired Taoist shook his head and said.


    The leaders who can become the leaders of a place in the same line of Taoism naturally have a good eye. They can see at a glance that the biggest use of this thing is military weapons. They will certainly kill countless people in the future. Taoism believes that good is rewarded for good and evil is rewarded for evil. If gunpowder is popular in the world, they may also be involved.


    As soon as the Taoist said this, a group of waidan Pattons shrank. Although they were proved to be wrong in the theory of waidan sect, their heart of pursuing longevity has not changed at all. If it affects their own Taoism, their heart is also very resistant.


    Merton felt a pause when he heard the speech. He didn''t expect these people to be so stubborn.


    "Sin Tao is willing to take the blame and develop the way of gunpowder for his majesty." suddenly, Taoist Shenxiao stepped out of the way. He didn''t have much heart to the Tao, otherwise he wouldn''t be fooled by gunpowder. Anyway, he has been exposed. If he can be valued by the Emperor, he can''t fly yellow.


    Taoist Changsheng moved in his heart, but when he thought that he was not good at it and had the secret skill of hair dyeing as capital, he quietly returned his outstretched steps.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin immediately looked at Taoist Shenxiao with appreciation. He is the best at the method of subduing fire. It is natural to have him take the lead.


    Taoist priest Shenxiao looked at a group of waidan sects. He couldn''t help humming in his heart and said secretly, "you all know the method of subduing fire. With such powerful weapons, your majesty can''t easily let you go."


    A group of waidan sects also obviously figured out the truth and were in a dilemma for a while.


    Merton smiled and said, "to refine gunpowder, Taoist priest Shenxiao can be the only one. You Taoist priests can learn all about the sky and use it naturally. My nephew heard the famous Taoist saying that when you burn dandelion into mercury, it turns into dandelion. Although the poison of mercury is harmful to human body, it can''t make people live forever, but it''s not the way of material longevity."


    Many waidan sects nodded one after another, which is indeed one of the theories of waidan sect.


    Merton continued: "the boy got an inspiration. Since Taoism can restore cinnabar, it can naturally restore other substances!"


    Li Shimin and a group of waidan sects immediately looked sideways and wondered what Merton meant.


    Merton Road: "In the process of steelmaking in Mojia village, it is found that iron and steel are very easy to rust. The iron discarded in Datang every year due to rust is not counted, especially since ancient times, the rusted iron and steel is enough to be produced in Datang for thousands of years. If you Taoist priests can follow the immortal way of cinnabar, develop the immortal way of iron and steel, and restore the rusted iron and scrap iron into pig iron, it will be a great good thing for all the people ¡£¡±


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, Li Shimin immediately felt happy that iron is the important weapon of the country. However, the annual steel production of Datang was in short supply, which led to the high price of iron. Especially after the extensive use of steel in Mojia village, the supply and demand of iron became more tense.


    If Taoism can really restore scrap iron into iron, it will be great good news for Datang. It is no less than adding a large iron ore for Datang, and this iron ore can never be exhausted for generations. Moreover, this is not groundless. Taoism has already had successful cases.


    The Taoist priests of waidan sect immediately frowned. It''s not impossible to say so. They just asked them to do the recycling work. Some of them were unwilling.


    Merton said proudly, "in this way, the inner Dan School of Taoism pursues the way of human immortality, and the outer Dan school pursues the way of material immortality. In the future, the achievements of Taoism will be unprecedented and unprecedented."


    Suddenly, the whole waidan sect was silent, and their heart was like a flame. Yuan Tiangang caught all the waidan sect, and they were not willing. If they could make the Taoist waidan sect rise again and prove themselves again, it would be their lifelong wish!


    "You know, it''s not impossible for you to continue to study external alchemy, but alchemy is a very expensive thing. You have lost the sacrifice of the world. I''m afraid you''ll be stretched out by then!"


    Merton said faintly and gave waidan a fatal blow. At present, the pill refined by waidan is poisonous. Naturally, he has lost all his believers. How can they afford such a large consumption just because of their old, weak, sick and disabled.


    "If you can stay and cooperate with Mo and Taoism, you will study Taoism, and Mo is responsible for turning it into a way to benefit the country and the people, wouldn''t it be great good for you. As for what you need, wouldn''t it be great for you to supply it with the power of man dynasty?" Merton said.


    "Raise the power of the Manchu Dynasty!" the Wai Dan Patton was silly and couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with hatred. The boy had a good idea. He benefited himself and let me pay for it. But at the moment, he still didn''t care to settle accounts with Merton. He immediately said, "what you have done is a great event that benefits the country and the people. I must strongly support it."


    Although Li Shimin was bleeding in his heart, he was still very happy, but how much money could these Taoists spend in alchemy? Let alone gunpowder and the technology of recycling scrap iron, it was enough for him to return a hundred times.


    "I''ll do it!" a group of waidan factions shouted.


    The plight of waidan school, the prospect of Mohist Taoist cooperation, and Li Shimin''s commitment, waidan school has only one way to cooperate with Mohist school.

 Chapter 320

    Outside the xuandu temple, the Taoist external elixirs are elated one by one. They no longer look like they were lost a few days ago. They stand side by side with the Taoist internal elixirs.


    Yuan Tiangang accompanied Li Shimin, but Merton followed.


    "Thank you, your majesty, for coming to mourn. I thank the emperor for his grace on behalf of my uncle!" Yuan Tiangang said first. Yuan Shoucheng stopped all the dirty work and hard work on himself, leaving yuan Tiangang a vibrant and promising Taoist. I have to say that Yuan Shoucheng was well intentioned.


    "Old immortal Yuan went away in pursuit of immortality. This is a happy funeral. Please forgive me!" Li Shimin sighed. Li Shimin felt deeply about yuan Shoucheng''s feat of integrating Taoism on his own.


    Hundred schools of thought, which all strive for the best, even devote their lives to them, and sacrifice their lives. The argument of theory is extremely dangerous.


    Mohists abandoned their political ideas and devoted themselves to studying ink technology.


    Doctors have made great efforts to develop and integrate a group of doctors to make Mexico hospital.


    Farmers are ready to absorb a large number of improved varieties from overseas.


    Taoism corrected itself and checked the harm of pills to make up for its biggest defect.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Seeing that the hundred schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty are advancing so vigorously and the atmosphere of a hundred schools of thought contending is becoming stronger and stronger, Li Shimin can''t help feeling that all the heroes in the world come into my hub.


    Merton sighed at this. He could understand yuan Shoucheng''s actions. This kind of person who sacrificed his life for the theory he believed in has never been cut off since ancient times. This kind of driving force can promote the continuous progress of mankind.


    "Congratulations to the emperor!"


    Li Shimin took the bus and left in the chorus of Taoist compliments. They didn''t get up until Li Shimin''s motorcade disappeared into the street.


    "Thank you for the help of Mohist school. I can''t thank Taoist school for that." Yuan Tiangang turned to thank Merton.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "ink technology and Taoism complement each other. Mohism also benefits a lot from the cooperation between ink and Taoism."


    Yuan Tiangang said, "in any case, Taoism owes Mohist a favor. I hope Mohist friends will help me in the future."


    In addition to Yuan Shoucheng, it can be said that Yuan Tiangang knows most about how much strength Merton has made in this Taoist storm. First of all, the mojiazi knows the biggest defect of Taoism. Instead of attacking Taoism, he puts forward the solution of calcium supplement for Taoism.


    When Yuan Shoucheng unified Taoism, I was afraid that Taoism could not compete for the whole merit in one battle if Merton had not pointed out the deception of Taoist Changsheng and Taoist Shenxiao.


    Later, Merton let the waidan sect have the secret skills of gunpowder and hair dyeing, and proposed to let the Taoist waidan study the eternal life of materials. It can be imagined that since Merton can put forward such suggestions, and the Taoist alchemy is not a secret, it is not difficult for the Mohist to get the secret recipe. The Mohist can bring this knowledge into the Mohist flag, but the Mohist did not do so, Instead, it was directly handed over to Taoism, which gave waidan sect a place to play, stabilized Taoism in the shortest time and avoided Taoist civil strife.


    It is not too much for Taoism to say that it owes Mohism a great favor.


    "Taoist yuan is serious. In a few days, your majesty will rebuild the Taoist temple for the Taoist external Dan vein, and the Mohist School congratulates the Taoist vein in advance." Merton did not take credit, but bowed his hand.


    "Thank you for your kind words!" Yuan Tiangang said first.


    "Farewell!" Morton arched his hands and left xuandu temple.


    After Morton stepped on the carriage, he was relieved and sighed slightly. Chemistry and other knowledge finally planted a seed in the Tang Dynasty. It is still unknown whether they can grow into towering trees in the future, but at least they will not be covered with dust for thousands of years like previous lives, leaving countless regrets.


    In fact, Merton once had a feeling that he took the amazing knowledge of chemistry as his own. It''s just that the knowledge of Mohism is enough to benefit Mohism for all ages. Instead of being greedy, he might as well give it back to Taoism, one less enemy and one more ally.


    "A single flower is not spring, a hundred flowers bloom, and spring fills the garden." Merton couldn''t help feeling happy when he thought of here.


    "Brother Mo, I''m so excited. I wonder if I''ve heard another sentence. I''ve been among thousands of flowers and leaves don''t touch me! A strange voice suddenly appeared next to Merton''s carriage.


    Merton quickly opened the window of the carriage and saw another carriage driving with him. In the window, Li Chengqian was looking at him with an inexplicable look.


    I treat you as my friend, but you treat me as my brother-in-law. The taste makes Li Chengqian extremely sour.


    Merton immediately remembered Qin Huaiyu''s warning that sister protector Li Chengqian was coming back. He didn''t expect to come back so soon. He couldn''t help being embarrassed. He was about to change the topic. He saw the figure of Princess Changle in the opposite window.


    "Brother Prince, what are you talking about?" Princess Changle blushed and said.


    After that, without seeing the action under his hand, Li Chengqian immediately took a breath and sat down seriously to prevent Merton from reading jokes.


    Fish champion building!


    Merton, Li Chengqian and Princess Changle took their seats


    Li Chengqian sat between them and stared at Merton with a defensive posture.


    Merton smiled bitterly and quickly changed the topic: "I didn''t expect brother Gaoming to have come back so soon. Has the disaster in Henan Road been controlled?"


    Li Chengqian originally wanted to dry Morton. Hearing the speech, he couldn''t help but look up and say, "the Yellow River flood was limited to a fixed range. The victims were transferred in time. What was damaged was only property. The Imperial Court opened Chang Ping position in time. In addition, Changle asked the Red Cross to send a large number of disaster relief materials, and the disaster was finally brought under control in time."


    Merton nodded, "what about the resettlement of the victims?"


    "All the people resettled nearby, chose highlands to rebuild villages and distribute land," said Li Chengqian proudly.


    Merton was slightly puzzled. Li Chengqian seemed to be a little abnormal today. He thought he was looking for trouble, but he was very excited.


    Seeing Merton puzzled, Princess Changle said, "the prince brother has caught a corrupt official?"


    "Corrupt officials?" Merton was puzzled.


    "That''s right. When the palace checked the food and grass affected by the disaster, it found that something was wrong. It calculated again. These corrupt officials deceived the young of the palace and cheated. They were caught by the official." Li Chengqian said proudly.


    Merton suddenly realized that no wonder Li Chengqian was so excited. As the crown prince, he could find out corrupt officials. How could such a novel experience not make him excited.


    "Anyone and anything in the world can deceive me, but I can''t learn arithmetic. Brother Mo''s words are true." Li Chengqian sighed and stabbed Merton in the dark.


    Hearing the speech, Princess Changle couldn''t help staring at Li Chengqian with hatred. Li Chengqian quickly made a ha ha, changed the topic and said, "I don''t know what wonderful things brother Mo has to tell me during my time away from the capital."


    Merton''s facial expression told him what he had done in xuandu temple one by one.


    "Ah!"


    Li Chengqian was immediately hit to pieces. He just caught a corrupt official, and Merton stirred up the whole situation of Taoism.


    Seeing the colorful eyes of Princess Changle and the appearance of a lost sister, she was so absorbed that she couldn''t help but feel depressed and want to vomit blood.

 Chapter 321

    "Young master, the ingredients are ready." master fish pushes the door and enters. Every time Merton recruits guests, master fish will personally check and select the ingredients to ensure the absolute delicacy of the food. Hearing the appreciation of the guests is his greatest support to the young master.


    "It''s hard, uncle fish!" Merton nodded, turned his head and smiled at them. "This time, you''ve caught up with a good time. Come and taste the latest Mohist food to ensure that you''re full of praise."


    "Oh! Really?" Li Chengqian suddenly became interested. The food of Mohism is famous and people can''t help looking forward to it.


    Princess Changle was also interested. She saw Merton making ice cream with her own eyes. Knowing that the food that Merton could look forward to would be extraordinary, she quickly asked, "but food like cake?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "what''s more, this delicious food is loved by his boyfriend, old and young."


    When they heard the speech, they looked forward to it.


    Soon, plates of dishes were brought up. They were stunned when they saw that the dishes were very rich, but they were all raw!


    "Brother Mo, just let us eat raw meat and lettuce!" Li Chengqian angrily looked at Merton. He just stabbed Merton, and Merton retaliated against him.


    Princess Changle also looked at Merton with puzzled eyes.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "don''t worry, you two. You have to be patient and do it yourself to look more delicious."


    "Coming!" Uncle Yu shouted, brought a copper stove in and put it on the table.


    Li Chengqian couldn''t help looking curiously. There was a circular chimney in the middle of the copper stove. The charcoal fire was booming inside. The chimney and the periphery of the copper pot formed a concentric pot. The soup in the pot was boiling and the aroma was overflowing.


    "Is this a hotpot?" Li Chengqian wondered.


    Merton nodded and said: it really evolved from a hot pot. Little brother named it hot pot.


    In this era, in fact, there has been the prototype of hot pot, hot pot. It''s just that the hotpots are stewed in one pot, and there is no hot pot process. Now it''s going to enter October, and the weather has turned cold. It''s not abrupt for Merton to move it out.


    "Hot pot?"


    Li Chengqian could not help nodding when he looked at the fire coming out of the chimney. It was really the best image.


    Princess Changle asked curiously, "how do you want to eat this?"


    "Eat while cooking! Cook whichever you like!" Merton said. He took the lead in picking up a bowl and opening it, prepared some soup, clamped a piece of mutton as thin as cicada wings, put it into a boiling copper pot, rinsed it for a few seconds, and then clamped it up and dipped it in the prepared soup.


    "Good taste!" Merton said with praise.


    Li Chengqian followed suit and picked up a piece of mutton as thin as a cicada''s wing. He couldn''t help praising it: "good workmanship."


    When he went to Henan, he had already missed the Mohist food. At the moment, the food was in front of him and he couldn''t help eating it.


    Merton laughed and said, "it''s not only good workmanship, but also better taste."


    After a year, the fish master''s method of processing cornel is more refined, and the extracted spicy flavor is added. It is not inferior to the pepper of later generations, but has another unique flavor.


    Merton has been in the xuandu Temple recently. Taoism advocates abstaining from five meat dishes. But Merton has always been clear in the xuandu temple and is unwilling to show weakness.


    Princess Changle also made a big move with her fingers and did the same. She picked up mutton and rinsed it. When she ate it, she took a cold breath.


    Rao is so, but he still keeps eating chopsticks.


    Although Princess Changle paid great attention to her figure, the delicious food in yuzhuangyuanlou was too tempting. She couldn''t help eating more than usual. When she saw Merton, she didn''t notice and hurriedly pretended to eat very little.


    Soon everything was in a mess. Plates of dishes were destroyed by the three.


    Merton touched his round belly and reluctantly put down his chopsticks. This familiar taste in his previous life really fascinated him.


    Then, Li Chengqian also put down his chopsticks and couldn''t help burping. As the crown prince, he usually pays most attention to his appearance, but only in front of Merton, these images have long collapsed. I don''t know how many times.


    "The Mohist cook deserves his reputation," Li Chengqian exclaimed.


    Princess Changle also agreed, nodded and said, "brother Prince, this hot pot is so delicious that we are going to visit Grandpa Huang. If we don''t give the hot pot to Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang will like it."


    "Grandpa Huang?" Merton''s heart moved. Could it be that they were talking about supreme Emperor Li Yuan.


    Li Chengqian nodded, "the hot pot is delicious. I believe grandpa Huang will like it.


    It is said that after the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Yuan lived in Hongyi palace and became the supreme emperor. After Li Yuan abdicated, in order to dispel Li Shimin''s wariness, he indulged in wine and sex and enjoyed himself. Li Shimin ordered people to send delicious food every morning and evening to show filial piety, and even killed himself to fill Tai''an palace with beautiful women.


    After the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin had many more brothers and sisters. You know, Li Yuan was in his 60s at that time. You can imagine how energetic Li Yuan was.


    And now Li Yuan is nearly 70. In his old age, Li Shimin often sends his children to visit. Li Shimin goes by himself. Of course, Li Yuan doesn''t have a good face, but Li Yuan is still cruel to his grandchildren.


    "Brother Mo, can we go together?" Princess Changle suddenly said.


    Morton was startled and said, "it''s not good. I''m afraid it''s inconvenient for Weichen to go."


    As a foreign minister, he went to see the emperor without permission. I''m afraid it would be very inappropriate.


    "What''s the matter? Last time Changle went to Hongyi palace to visit Grandpa Huang and brought him some ink magazines. Grandpa Huang was in a great mood and praised you as a young talent." Princess Changle said.


    Merton smiled shyly and said, "I didn''t expect that a mere name could enter the emperor''s ears."


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "besides, where have I seen such new delicacies as hot pot? I still need your advice at that time?"


    In the palace, Li Shimin''s psychology towards Li Yuan has already changed. Anyone with a clear eye can see that Li Yuan''s body is getting worse day by day. Seeing that the time is not much, Li Shimin''s mentality towards Li Yuan has changed from the original alert to compensation. As long as Li Yuan asks, Li Shimin will be satisfied.


    Although Merton did not know this, he still had a strong curiosity about Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Merton was greatly moved by the persuasion of Li Chengqian and Princess Changle.


    Merton pondered and said, "since you are going to visit the emperor, I believe the emperor will like it."


    "Oh! Brother Mo, tell me?" Li Chengqian said quickly.


    "The secret of hair dyeing!" Merton said positively.

 Chapter 322

    Hongyi palace!


    Merton looked at the very luxurious palace and couldn''t help feeling. At the beginning of the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin made great achievements in war. Hongyi palace was specially awarded by Li Yuan to Li Shimin to live in.


    However, subtly, after the change of Xuanwu Gate, it has become Li Yuan''s palace, which has to make people think about Li Shimin''s intention.


    Merton followed Li Chengqian and Princess Changle into Hongyi palace. Soon, led by an old eunuch, he turned around the main hall and came to the back garden. He saw a white haired old man practicing Wuqinxi slowly, just like an ordinary rich man.


    However, Merton knew that he was the old man in front of him. He was the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the only founding emperor in Chinese history who was overthrown by his son. It was not his incompetence, but his son was too excellent.


    "Grandpa Huang!"


    When Princess Changle saw the old man, she ran over happily, and Li Chengqian followed.


    "See Grandpa Huang!" Li Chengqian said solemnly.


    Li Yuan got up, Princess Yu Changle and Li Chengqian said a few words, and looked at Merton with great interest.


    "See the emperor, Merton!" Merton followed him.


    "Merton? The Mohist family who founded the ink magazine?" Li Yuan asked.


    As the supreme emperor, although he lost his power, his enjoyment in other aspects is still incomparably luxurious. It can be said that he is more luxurious than when he was the emperor, and there is no annoying imperial historian to advise, but only one of his biggest enemies is loneliness. The ink journal founded by Merton, which collects the wonders of the world and pays attention to the important news in Guanzhong, can be said to give Li Yuan a tool to understand the outside world and is deeply loved by Li Yuan.


    Merton said with a smile, "I didn''t expect that the boy''s name could reach the emperor''s ears."


    Li Yuan glanced at Princess Changle and said faintly, "if someone often mentions it in your ear, it''s hard for you to know!"


    Princess Changle was ashamed and pretended not to understand. She quickly changed the topic and said, "Grandpa Huang, Changle came to see you. Why are you still talking nonsense? I knew I wouldn''t bring you delicious food!"


    "Hahaha, Changle is still sweet. It''s worth grandpa''s love for you when you were a child!" Li Yuan said with great joy.


    At that time, when Li Yuan was in power, Princess Changle and Li Chengqian were Li Shimin''s eldest son and daughter. They were most loved by Li Shimin on weekdays.


    "Grandpa Huang, wait a minute. I''m afraid this delicious food will wait for a while. I''m sure you''ll have a good meal!" Princess Changle said playfully.


    Li Yuan can only pursue the desire of mouth now. When he hears the speech, he can''t help but move in his heart. If Princess Changle can send it, it''s all delicious food such as cake. Since Princess Changle says so, it must be not inferior to these.


    "Grandpa Huang is looking forward to it!" Li Yuan laughed.


    Li Chengqian then said, "Changle''s food needs some time. Grandpa Huang doesn''t have to worry. Let''s take a look at the jewelry sent by his grandson for Grandpa Huang.


    When Chengqian finished, he impressively presented a diamond necklace.


    "Is this a diamond?"


    Li Yuan was moved when he looked at the magnificent and dazzling diamonds. He once owned the whole empire and had countless treasures. However, he was still addicted to diamonds.


    "I''m afraid he asked you to send it!" Li Yuan, after all, was the founding emperor. He soon recovered from his addiction and said faintly.


    Merton felt a deep thought in his heart. Naturally, he was Li Shimin in Li Yuan''s mouth. Li Chengqian can''t take out such a treasure now.


    Merton felt that Li Shimin was wronged first. The Mohist village worked overtime to make a diamond necklace for Li Shimin. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin sent it to Li Yuan for the first time.


    "The father emperor is busy with his business and has no time to come. He specially ordered the Mohist school to create this peerless treasure and let his grandchildren bring filial piety." Li Chengqian said reluctantly. As the prince, he was in great difficulty between Li Shimin and Li Yuan.


    Li Yuan snorted coldly, "I think he just doesn''t dare to come! Well, it''s just right that he doesn''t come. I''ll be upset."


    Li Yuan and Li Shimin''s father and son have rarely met since the change of the Xuanwu Gate. Li Yuan didn''t show up except for the major sacrifice during the Spring Festival.


    Moreover, when Li Yuan thought of the change of Xuanwu sect, it was painful. On the one hand, he was forced to abdicate, on the other hand, his white haired people sent black haired people, and his children and grandchildren suffered heavy casualties. Although Li Yuanping abdicated steadily for the sake of the stability of the Tang Dynasty, how could he have no resentment in his heart.


    Thinking of this, Li Yuan glanced at Li Chengqian and said with a smile, "it''s not easy to be the crown prince. The lessons of the past are right in front of you. Don''t repeat the mistakes!"


    It is obviously not the first time that Li Chengqian heard Li Yuan say so. He said expressionless, "my father is at the peak of spring and autumn. My grandchildren dare not dream. Chengqian can keep his duty."


    Merton thought of the fate of future generations of Li Chengqian. He couldn''t help sighing. Li Chengqian was very close to the fate of hidden Prince Li Jiancheng. Although they were all inherited by their eldest son, behind them there was an amazing younger brother competing behind.


    However, in this life, Li Chengqian''s fate was influenced by Merton. After the treatment of doctors, his foot disease had already returned to 7788, which had not been as extreme as before. It is unknown what will happen in the future.


    Seeing that the atmosphere became stiff, Princess Changle quickly said, "how come grandpa Huang said these boring words? Grandpa Huang doesn''t know. Besides us, Lord mohou also carefully prepared a gift for Grandpa?"


    After all, Li Yuan was old, and he was just nagging habitually. Hearing Princess Changle say so, he couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    "The gift prepared by the famous Mohist, I''m very angry!"


    Merton smiled confidently at the speech and said, "surely we won''t let the emperor down."


    Soon, after Li Yuan washed his hair with the help of the maid of honor, Merton took out a small pottery jar and carefully smeared the ointment in the jar on Li Yuan''s wet hair to avoid contamination on his skin.


    After that, Merton wrapped Li Yuan''s hair with a towel.


    "That''s all right?" Princess Changle asked curiously.


    "It will take half an hour to wait." Merton shook his head. "But the supreme emperor doesn''t have to wait! The minister smelled the delicious food and was ready."


    Princess Changle suddenly took Li Yuan and said, "Grandpa Huang, this is a delicious dish called hot pot. Grandpa Huang will like it as soon as he tastes it."


    Li Yuan also ate hot pot for the first time. After Princess Changle demonstrated it once, he immediately fell in love with this unique eating mode and ate it in a big bite.


    Soon, Li Yuan put down his dishes and chopsticks and sighed with satisfaction,


    With a sigh, the wrapped scarf floated away.


    "Ah!"


    Princess Changle suddenly exclaimed.


    "What''s the matter?" Li Yuan wondered.


    Li Chengqian was also shocked and said in a trembling voice, "Grandpa Huang will know at a glance."


    Merton had known this effect for a long time and handed over the bronze mirror that had already been prepared.


    Li Yuan took over and saw that he was struck by lightning. He saw that his white hair had disappeared and turned into black hair, just like he was in high spirits when he returned to Taiyuan.

 Chapter 323

    Through the ages, countless emperors have pursued immortality, but no one knows how to be immortal.


    Even if a person''s desire for immortality is pious, his Taoism is profound, and he takes more elixirs, his increasingly pale hair reminds the world day after day that the years urge people to grow old.


    However, when Li Yuan saw his black hair, one can imagine how much surprise it would be.


    "This is... The means to have an eldest son!" Li Yuan, after all, was the founding emperor. He soon woke up from ecstasy. It is obvious that Mohism cannot have such a means. Only Taoism can have the art of longevity. Li Yuan is also a famous Taoist immortal. He naturally knows that Taoist immortal has black hair.


    "Grandpa Huang doesn''t know. Now the Taoist internal pill and external pill have been unified, and the deception of Taoist Changsheng has long been seen through by Merton." Princess Changle beamed and repeated Merton''s actions in xuandu temple to Li Yuan.


    "So it is?" Li Yuan suddenly realized!


    At that time, he was bent on pursuing the great cause of founding the country and had no time to take into account the way of longevity. After the stability of the Tang Dynasty, he lost his throne, otherwise he might not escape the trick of the eldest son.


    "Although Taoist Changsheng''s black hair is fake, his secret skill of dyeing hair is extremely useful. Grandpa Huang''s black hair is as wise and powerful as his grandson saw when he was a child!" Li Chengqian complimented.


    "Old, the body is not as good as before, even with black hair." Li Yuan smiled. Although he said so, his eyes were reluctant to part with looking at the black hair in the bronze mirror. Although he knew it was fake, he couldn''t help indulging in it.


    This trip to Hongyi palace can be described as a great joy between the host and the guest. Tonight, Li Yuan is very powerful, not to mention.


    Outside Hongyi palace, the three said goodbye to Li Yuan. As soon as they came to a corner, Li Chengqian gave a look and asked the coachman to take Princess Changle first.


    Soon, there were only Li Chengqian and Merton left at the corner.


    Merton felt terrible. He didn''t expect that Li Chengqian, the crazy devil who protects his sister, was so careful that he attacked himself at this time.


    "Brother Gaoming, listen to me. I really don''t mean that much to Changle..." Merton hurriedly said.


    However, just halfway through Merton''s words, Li Chengqian heard him ask leisurely, "Merton, in the final analysis, is it better to make a long man or a good man?"


    Merton suddenly knew that Li Chengqian was still influenced by Li Yuan and fell into confusion.


    Li Chengqian''s position as Prince has never been stable, his inferiority complex due to foot disease, Li Tai''s pressing step by step, Li Ke, the blood of emperors of the two dynasties, and Li Shimin''s heavy expectations, all of which are like heavy pressure on Li Chengqian''s thin shoulders.


    For a long time, Li Chengqian couldn''t find anyone to talk to. Today, he got this opportunity and finally spoke out in front of Merton.


    As soon as Merton saw no one here, he pondered and said, "Mohism is no longer involved in politics. Mohism will certainly not participate in the future as Prince."


    Li Chengqian immediately turned pale. Although he and Merton had no utilitarian friendship, he saw that the Mohist school was growing step by step and did not intend to use it as a help. Hearing Merton''s straightforward refusal, although he had expected for a long time, he couldn''t help being disappointed.


    Merton continued: "as a person who will be determined to revive the Mohist school, I can clearly tell you that it is, of course, the establishment of a virtuous person. What is the role of an emperor? It can resist the enemy outside, settle the world inside, and be far away from villains and near virtuous officials. If there is no distinction, as long as the eldest son can be an emperor, I''m afraid it''s the biggest joke in the world."


    Li Chengqian''s face turned black and he couldn''t help clenching his fists.


    Merton gave a gentle pause and said, "but as a friend, what I can only tell you is that your biggest opponent is not other princes, but yourself."


    "What''s the meaning of this?" Li Chengqian frowned.


    Merton Road: "Although your highness King Wei is loved by your majesty, if your highness King Wei ascends, will it not repeat the old story of Xuanwu Gate? This is a thorn in your Majesty''s heart, so your highness King Wei can''t take your position. Your highness King Wu has blood of two dynasties, and your blood is noble. But if your highness King Wu ascends, it''s still unknown whether the world''s surname is Li or yang. Even if your majesty agrees, it''s full Can the Minister of civil and military affairs of the DPRK agree? "


    Chengqian''s heart surged and his face turned red. The so-called onlookers were clear and those in the game were fans. After Merton''s analysis, Chengqian suddenly became clear. The biggest threat to the crown prince was Li Tai and Li Ke. How could other princes pose the slightest threat to him.


    Merton said, "as a minister, Wei minister gives you an exotic saying: if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. If you aspire to that position, don''t complain about the heavy expectations of the emperor, the picky criticism of the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and the brother''s pursuit of that position. If you lose any position, you must not be able to bear the weight of the crown."


    Li Chengqian''s face turned red and black. Although Merton said persuasion, he couldn''t help but make people want to beat him.


    "What did you say just now?" Li Chengqian said suddenly.


    Morton replied in amazement, "if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "no, the first sentence!"


    "I really don''t know about Changle..." before Merton finished, he was punched on the eyelid by Li Chengqian.


    "Changle is sincere to you, but you speak such animal language!" Li Chengqian shouted angrily in a low voice.


    Merton dodged, "that''s interesting, isn''t it!"


    Hearing the speech, Li Chengqian started even harder: "it''s interesting, not even worse! Changle is still young. You have such a beast''s idea."


    Neither left nor right. Merton immediately shouted angrily, "don''t think you''re the prince. I dare not fight back. I tell you, I''ve practiced recently."


    Chengqian snorted coldly and looked contemptuously at Merton''s small body.


    Merton immediately attacked him as if he had been so humiliated.


    "You should use the Yin move!" soon, Li Chengqian''s painful voice came.


    "You can''t let go."


    "You put it first!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After hearing the news, Princess Changle and her party hurried back.


    Just around the corner, I saw them quickly tidy up their clothes and hum coldly to each other. They were as proud as a defeated rooster. Only the constantly twitching corners of their mouths exposed their camouflage.


    Princess Changle looked at Merton''s dark corners of her eyes, apologized to Merton, turned around and couldn''t help staring at Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian was filled with grief and indignation. Merton, a boy with a black heart, didn''t say hello to him. How did it completely become his own mistake.


    The two carriages went their separate ways and left. Soon, the news of the fight between Prince Li Chengqian and Mohist son spread all over Chang''an city.


    The whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.

 Chapter 324

    Tai Chi hall.


    Li Shimin finished handling a full table of official business and couldn''t help rubbing the tired corners of his eyes.


    "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!"


    Although Li Shimin didn''t know this sentence, he deeply realized how heavy the weight of the crown was. The Tang Dynasty was so big that there were countless things to deal with every day. Although after layers of officials and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the government affairs handed over to Li Shimin were still a small number, almost often, Li Shimin is busy until very late.


    Li Shimin was well aware of the emperor''s responsibilities, so he had great expectations and strict requirements for Li Chengqian''s newspaper.


    However, Li Shimin was strict with Li Chengqian and kind to Li Tai, king of Wei.


    As the legitimate second son, Li Taiyi was born. Except that he was not granted the throne of Prince, all other grace specifications are no less than those of Li Chengqian. He even has the right to enter and leave the palace freely.


    "My son kowtowed to my father!"


    Without being informed, Li Tai entered the Tai Chi hall and saluted Li Shimin.


    When Li Shimin saw Li Tai coming in, he couldn''t help but show a smile on his face. He intimately said with Li Tai''s nickname: "green bird, how can I come to my father today!"


    "I''ve just finished my homework! I have some questions about arithmetic. I want to ask my eldest brother for advice, but I heard that my eldest brother went to visit Grandpa Huang and came to ask my father for advice." Li Tai said.


    "Oh! The green sparrow is here for the school entrance examination. The father is here!" Li Shimin said with a smile.


    Li Shimin''s father and son are like father and son in an ordinary family, seeking knowledge and enjoying themselves.


    However, before long, Li Shimin''s face turned black, because he found that these arithmetic problems were too difficult!


    "This question is good and level!" Li Shimin pretended to be a clear expression and commented that he thought he had a good level of mathematics, but these problems are also a headache!


    Li Tai said with a smile: "this is the test question of Shen Fuzi, the Imperial College supervisor, which I found. I also feel very difficult. However, I heard that this question is as simple as the multiplication formula table in Lord Mo''s hand. From this, I know that there are people outside and there are days outside."


    Li Shimin suddenly said, "it was the Imperial College''s examination question. No wonder so. But Merton started his career in arithmetic. Who is uncomfortable compared with him. Now, I don''t know how many students hate Merton?"


    The rise of mathematics has baffled many students in the Tang Dynasty. How can all the students have a good face for the originator Mo Jiazi.


    Li Tai also shook his head and said with a smile, "if you don''t say it far away, why isn''t the young slave? Before, he didn''t often gnash his teeth and call Merton the great devil."


    Referring to Li Zhi''s embarrassment, the father and son couldn''t help laughing.


    "However, I think it''s very useful to learn mathematics. Lord mohou once said something that my ministers thought was a wise saying." Li Tai said.


    Li Shimin said with great interest, "Oh! Tell me!"


    Li Tai said positively, "anyone in the world can deceive you, but only arithmetic can''t. elder brother found out a group of corrupt officials with arithmetic some time ago. My ministers think that the greatest advantage of arithmetic is truth!" Li Tai said.


    Li Shimin nodded deeply. He had to say that Merton''s sentence had been widely spread in the Tang Dynasty and had a deep influence. It was because of this that arithmetic was recognized by more and more people and its status was gradually improved.


    Li Tai''s choice of questions is naturally not so easy, but it will not embarrass Li Shimin. The father and son worked together to overcome one problem after another. This kind of father and son''s sense of achievement made Li Shimin enjoy his family.


    When Li Tai had as like as two peas to ask questions, he left to leave. Li Shimin''s affection for him was not diminished. He saw Li Tai as if he were thinking of himself as king of Qin.


    The same talented, the same legitimate and second son, and the same prince with a mother and compatriots on it, how magical the fate is. Li Tai is a replica of Li Shimin in that year.


    Li Shimin sighed in his heart that his father couldn''t give you the crown prince, so he had to double his compensation in other places.


    "Somebody, play what the Prince did today." soon, Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly recovered and ordered pound, who was waiting on one side.


    "Yes, your majesty!"


    After a while, pound will present a secret fold to Li Shimin.


    The words and deeds of the three of Li Chengqian when they visited Li Yuan were recorded in detail on paper. When they saw the dialogue between Li Yuan and Li Chengqian about the crown prince, they couldn''t help sighing.


    After so many years, the thorn in his father''s heart still can''t be eliminated, but Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction for Li Chengqian''s answer.


    Then he saw the triple gifts of diamond, hot pot and hair dyeing secret skills, which made Li Yuan happy. Li Shimin''s complaint about Merton''s private meeting with Li Yuan had already disappeared.


    Li Shimin doesn''t think Merton has any other ideas about Merton''s meeting Li Yuan. In addition, these triple gifts, especially the secret skills of hair dyeing, can make Li Yuan so happy. For Li Shimin, it''s worth more than anything.


    Immediately, he saw the news of the fight between Li Chengqian and Merton, and immediately understood the reason why Li Tai came today.


    "It''s not proper for the Grand Prince and the Marquis to fight in the street."


    Li Shimin rebuked, but there was no anger in his heart. Li Chengqian finally did a great thing. He had long wanted to beat the Mohist school, and even wanted to hit his daughter''s attention.


    However, he couldn''t help being curious about Chengqian''s ability to do such a thing. All along, Chengqian has adhered to the throne of Prince, and his words and deeds are methodical. Although he can''t pick out any mistakes, he always feels that there is less youthful momentum.


    Li Chengqian was untied by Merton, and the attribute of protecting his sister''s crazy devil broke out. Li Shimin couldn''t help but look at such an unexpected thing.


    Even if Li Chengqian caught corrupt officials with arithmetic before, he didn''t surprise Li Shimin so much!


    "In this way, tomorrow morning will be lively!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but feel headache.


    One is the fight of the crown prince, the other is the troublemaker of the mojiazi, which is enough for the imperial historian to participate in a book. It can be imagined how lively tomorrow morning will be.


    However, at the moment, Li Chengqian did not look worried at all, but enjoyed the admiration of the princes leisurely in the palace.


    "Well done, brother Prince! We''ve been hurt by Mohist''s arithmetic. Brother Prince is really happy today." Li Zhi said excitedly.


    "Yes! This guy is usually so hateful that he doesn''t know a little more than us?" Li you also said angrily.


    "Even if you still want to play sister Huang''s idea, it''s like a toad wants to eat swan meat."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The princes gathered around Li Chengqian, one by one beaming. It can be seen how unpopular the Mohists were. How much more schoolwork did they leave behind? Li Chengqian''s move can also be regarded as revenge for them.


    "I heard that mojiazi hit back, Prince brother, do you hurt?" Li Zhi said with a naive expression.


    Li Chengqian suddenly took a swipe at the corners of his mouth and felt a faint pain all over. Merton was cruel to the thief. However, Li Chengqian didn''t change his face and said proudly, "is the Mozi an opponent of the eldest brother? He hasn''t been beaten by the eldest brother."

 Chapter 325

    Da Chao Hui!


    "See the emperor!"


    The ministers saluted.


    "Dear Aiqing, excuse me!" Li Shimin raised his hand.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" all the ministers got up and stood in the two columns.


    As soon as the crowd was settled, Yu Zhining, the right common son of the crown prince, couldn''t wait to stand up and start playing: "I inform your majesty that I have a play. I heard that the crown prince and the Mohist son were fighting outside the Hongyi palace. Such behavior is appalling. It''s like a street rogue fighting. Please investigate it carefully."


    The prince''s right concubine is nominally the prince''s subordinate official, but in fact, it is the official hired by the emperor to specially teach Li Chengqian''s knowledge and supervise Li Chengqian''s behavior. At ordinary times, it is the official responsible for advising the prince and correcting the prince''s behavior.


    It can be imagined that when Yu Zhining heard the news of the fight between Li Chengqian and mojiazi, the reaction was so fierce.


    At the same time, many crown prince''s subordinates played one after another and accused Li Chengqian of his behavior.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but draw a corner of his mouth and look at the figure of Li Chengqian in the corner. As early as four years in Zhenguan, Li Shimin consciously exercised Li Chengqian''s political ability as a prince and ordered Li Chengqian to listen to the lawsuit. At every imperial meeting, Li Chengqian would listen to politics and learn his ability to govern the country.


    "Lao Chen thinks that this is not the prince''s fault. It is really bold for Mohist to dare to attack the current prince, and the old minister thinks that the crime of Mohist is unforgivable." unexpectedly, he and Yu Zhining jointly taught Prince Kong Yingda, but focused on Merton.


    The courtiers couldn''t help but focus their attention on Kong Yingda. Kong Yingda''s crime is not big. Once he sits down, Merton will take off his skin if he doesn''t die.


    "It seems that the honeymoon period of Confucianism and Mohism has passed!"


    Many people who have a heart have a secret way.


    "The prince is the king, and the son of the Mohist family is the minister. The minister should attack the king. He is simply not the son of man!"


    "The Mohist school has always been lawless. Today, he dares to attack the crown prince. In the future, he may not do anything rebellious."


    "I beg you to severely punish the Mexican family!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As soon as Kong Yingda''s voice fell, more ministers charged him. Compared with Li Chengqian, the Mexican family was more dissatisfied with the hearts of civil servants in the dynasty.


    Li Shimin immediately had a headache. He turned to Li Chengqian and said, "prince, what excuse do you have?"


    Li Chengqian, who was listening to the government, smiled and said, "I don''t know where you heard such nonsense. My palace has always admired Merton''s knowledge and asked him for advice on arithmetic. How can you fight with him."


    As soon as Li Chengqian said this, everyone was dumbfounded. All along, Li Chengqian has a diligent image of correcting his mistakes in the face of advice. I didn''t expect Li Chengqian to completely deny it.


    How did they know that after opening his heart, Li Chengqian was no longer as careful as before.


    Yu Zhining immediately choked and said, "how does your highness explain that you and others went out of Hongyi palace and were alone with mojiazi, but someone heard you and others arguing, and mojiazi returned with an eye injury."


    In fact, everyone knows that the reason why Li Chengqian beat Merton is because of Princess Changle, but no one can say this reason. He can only blindly find trouble with Merton and the prince.


    Li Chengqian said leisurely: "this is a misunderstanding. I heard that Merton was practicing martial arts recently. My palace has been taught many martial arts by my father. In addition, my body has recovered. For a moment, I was itchy. I couldn''t help but duel with Mozi."


    "Mojia Zi practises martial arts!


    "Two people compete!"


    All the officials of the east palace were silly at once. There was a big difference between dueling and fighting. The martial spirit still existed soon after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. It was not a matter at all when they had an ordinary duel,


    And at that time, there were only Li Chengqian and Merton. They said it was a duel, and no one could say anything.


    "Wei Chen can prove that Morton has indeed practiced martial arts. The weight-bearing training method of the Mohist school is quite effective. My silly boy has supported 50 moves under Wei Chen since he practiced the weight-bearing method recently." Qin Qiong suddenly appeared.


    "Yes, my boy has made great progress in martial arts!"


    Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde echoed one after another.


    In fact, it''s more than a great improvement in martial arts. If they hadn''t been on the battlefield for a long time, they would almost be unable to suppress these three smelly boys.


    "Oh! I''m looking forward to such miraculous effects!" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    "I''ll sort it out later and present it to your majesty!" Qin Qiong said.


    Soon the whole topic of the hall suddenly tilted.


    Yu Zhining and others couldn''t help sighing. No one thought that Li Chengqian was abnormal and denied it completely, which caught everyone unprepared.


    "Rao is so. His Royal Highness the prince and the son of the Mo family have a public contest. It''s really bad behavior. This wind can''t last long." Yu Zhining and other East Palace officials can only find a step for themselves.


    "Chengqian was taught!" Chengqian bowed. Now Chengqian seems to have returned to his previous respectful attitude, but everyone realizes that some changes have quietly appeared in Chengqian.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "you and other officials of the East Palace have done their duty and should be rewarded. If the crown prince''s behavior is improper, he will be fined for three months to make an example."


    "The emperor is wise!" Yu Zhining and others got a satisfactory reply, and immediately shouted. Only Kong Yingda had a little regret in his heart. This time, Mozi escaped.


    Li Shimin turned to Li Chengqian and said, "it''s a good thing that the crown prince has the heart of martial arts. Datang will fight the world immediately and can''t forget his roots. Cheng Aiqing presented the method of weight-bearing training to the East Palace and asked the crown prince to practice according to Fang."


    "Yes!" Qin Qiong replied.


    Li Chengqian immediately smiled bitterly. He had heard a lot about the weight-bearing training, but he heard Qin Huaiyu complain about how painful it was. He didn''t expect that it would be his turn so soon.


    "My son and I will succeed in learning. I will compete with Merton more in the future," said Li Chengqian Lang.


    All the East Palace officials suddenly looked up and looked at Li Chengqian as if they were strangers.


    Cheng Yaojin smiled when he heard the speech and couldn''t help giving Li Chengqian a thumbs up.


    Seeing the change of Li Chengqian, Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling and said, "if you lose, don''t blame me for punishing you."


    An event that should have caused such a storm was changed by Li Chengqian and soon dissipated into invisibility. However, from today on, all the courtiers really attached importance to Li Chengqian. I''m afraid few princes who are submissive and frightened can take it to heart.


    Although a means is very young, and even a bit of a rogue to pass the prince, it makes people involuntarily raise a dignified feeling in their hearts.


    Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. A young tiger is also a tiger! Li Chengqian, a young tiger, has just grown up.

 Chapter 326

    "I inform your majesty that this autumn''s harvest has been fruitful in all parts of the Tang Dynasty, and grain prices have risen. Compared with last year, this autumn''s harvest has increased by more than 10 percent." Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of the people, said with a flushed face in the Tai Chi hall.


    A 10% increase in taxes is a remarkable achievement, comparable to the speed of later China. How can Dai Zhou not be excited.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. The growth of national strength and the prosperity of the people are a harbinger of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty."


    All the civil and military personnel in the Manchu Dynasty were happy. The state of the Tang Dynasty was endowed with sufficient national power, and everyone was also happy.


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. The Tang Dynasty''s governance of the Yellow River and the expedition to Tuyuhun were imminent. The sufficient Treasury gave him so much confidence that he could pay 10% more taxes. There were too many things he could do.


    "This is the credit of your love. I thank you for the people all over the world." Li Shimin got up and saluted the courtiers.


    "Your Majesty doesn''t deserve to mention the minor contributions of my minister."


    The ministers quickly said modestly.


    Li Chengqian listened to the government. When he heard the speech, he couldn''t help humming: "compared with the credit of Merton, you are really worthless."


    Li Chengqian has already seen the detailed list of autumn tax. The large-scale growth of land tax depends on the promotion of quyuanli and drought resistance method. Among the taxes, the growth rate of commercial tax is the most amazing. It can increase tax by 10%. Commercial tax accounts for a great contribution. Among them, the taxes paid by businesses between Mojia village and Mojia village account for a large proportion.


    However, the courtiers automatically ignored Merton''s credit, and everyone didn''t mention it. Li Chengqian sighed helplessly. He couldn''t help but look outside the hall and secretly figure out his way of governing the country.


    At the moment, the greatest contributor to the increase of the autumn Fu of the Tang Dynasty is lying on the soft couch with a pair of panda eyes, screaming in pain.


    "Take it easy, you take it easy!"


    In the ink mansion, Ziyi is using ice to apply the eye bruise position for Tang Merton. When Ziyi''s action is a little bigger, Merton can''t help but take a breath and cry out for pain.


    Ziyi saw it and cried painfully, "the prince is so cruel that he should be so cruel to you."


    Merton snorted stiffly and said, "the young master doesn''t suffer any losses. He''s not much better!"


    There are several opportunities to beat the current crown prince. Merton is unprecedented and has no future. Merton from later generations has no concept of superiority and inferiority. How can he be beaten by Li Chengqian without fighting back.


    Ziyi was startled and hurriedly said, "young master, beating the current crown prince is a capital crime. What if the emperor blames it?"


    Merton waved his hand and said, "don''t worry, Li Chengqian had better face. He certainly won''t admit that he was beaten by me. Now he can''t tell that he''s going to publicize everywhere and beat me down."


    Rao is so. Ziyi is also worried about kicking in her heart. Knowing Merton''s repeated assurances, Ziyi is a little relieved.


    "Where''s fuber?"


    Merton suddenly didn''t see fuber today and couldn''t help asking.


    "Chang''an County wants to assign the task of corvee service to each village. Fubo has gone to the county government office instead of Mojia village. Now he should be back soon!


    In the Tang Dynasty, the land equalization law was implemented, and the rent regulation was implemented. It was stipulated that all people with land equalization, no matter how much land they were granted at home, should pay taxes according to Ding, and after collecting the taxes, they would serve corvee.


    Sure enough, the voice of purple clothes fell. Fubo came in from the outside and saw Merton report: "young master, the corvee in Mojia village has come down. The corvee assigned to Mojia village by the county is a simple task."


    Merton shook his head and said, "when the Mojia village is developing, this is the time of employment. All corvee work is carried out in accordance with the provisions of the imperial court."


    In ancient times, corvee was a very important work. Almost all the large-scale projects of the imperial court were built by corvee. The Great Wall, the seven wonders, and the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal were completed by requisitioning a large number of civilian men.


    The corvee was too heavy, the people complained too much, the corvee was too light, and many important projects could not be completed. In addition, some rich households were unwilling to serve corvee, so the Naxi substitute service slowly came into being, which has a rudiment of the system of raising and serving in future generations.


    It originated in the Sui Dynasty. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty implemented the policy of "light corvee and low tax" at that time. In the second year of the emperor''s reign, it was stipulated that a young man over the age of 18 should bear the rent and adjustment service; a man over the age of 60 should be exempted from the rent and adjustment service. Later, it was stipulated that a young man over the age of 50 can accept silk as a substitute.


    After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he further developed the system of accepting silk as a substitute for labor. It was stipulated that all Ding men who were unwilling to perform labor could replace them with silk or cloth, which was equivalent to three feet of silk every day, which was called Yong.


    "We all have to accept silk for service. There are nearly thousands of families in Mojia village. How much silk cloth does it cost? Where can there be so much silk cloth in Mojia village?" Ziyi exclaimed.


    But Merton smiled and said without any worry: "in previous years, it was the najuan substitute. I''m afraid it''s not necessarily this year."


    Fubo nodded and said, "young master, it''s wise. I heard that there were too many silk fabrics in the imperial court in previous years, and the Treasury has nowhere to store them. Many of them have become moldy and discolored. This year, farmers are specially allowed to accept silk or money as agents."


    Merton nodded. He knew in his heart that this was the first step of the court''s change for the impact of cotton in five years. I''m afraid the silk service will become the money service in the next few years.


    When a carriage of silver money pulled down the county government of Chang''an City, the news that mojiazi paid money for the service of all the villagers in Mojia village spread all over the Tang Dynasty.


    "There are at least two thousand soldiers in Mojia village! Mojia Zi is really willing!"


    No one''s Ding service is a small number, which is painful enough for ordinary people. Unless the rich and ordinary people go to obediently serve the corvee, no one is willing to accept the silk service, not to mention 2000. The money required must not be a small number.


    "The people in Mojia village are really lucky to meet such a good owner."


    Chang''an city was full of talk and envy.


    "Why do we have such a hard life and serve corvee."


    Many people complained.


    Although corvee service does not cost money, it is very tiring, and you have to provide your own dry food, and you have to serve corvee for more than a month. It is not an easy job for an adult labor force.


    In particular, the corvee in Guanzhong this year is very heavy. Changsun Wuji has taken away a lot of labor to manage the Yellow River. There are many rich families in Chang''an City, most of them accept silk as agents, and there are many more corvee shared equally among villages this year.


    When the news of the Mojia village''s silk substitute service spread to the villages in the south of the city, many villages immediately fried the pot. All along, Mojia village has been the main force of corvee service. This year, there are more than 2000 people in Mojia village, so they are afraid to do more work.


    For a while, various unbalanced psychology emerged one after another, especially after Li Zheng assigned tasks, the villages in the south of Chang''an city immediately fried.


    Driven by people with intentions, an undercurrent against Mojia village surged one after another.

 Chapter 327

    "What? HeJiazhuang in the south of the city led 18 villages to sue the government of Chang''an County for unfair corvee in Mojia village!" Merton looked at Constable Cao who came to report in surprise.


    Constable Cao nodded and said, "just this morning, he Zhuang in the south of the city handed over the paper and thought that his village was too heavy to bear the corvee, and Mojia village was too light.


    "He Jiazhuang?" Merton asked with a frown.


    Fubo thought for a moment and said angrily: "back, young master, HeJiazhuang is a big village in the south of the city. It is about ten miles away from Mojia village. This village burns bricks and tiles all year round. Mojia village buys bricks from HeJiazhuang this year. I didn''t expect that HeJiazhuang''s Wolf ambition would bite back."


    Constable Cao said awkwardly, "because Mojia village has paid money for the service this year, there are more tasks for each village in the south of the city, among which Hejia village has the most, so that it goes to the county magistrate."


    "But we have paid the money according to the regulations of the court." Fubo said discontentedly.


    Mojia village paid 2000 men''s immunization money at once. That''s not a small amount. How can it be the reason that they have to serve corvee after paying money.


    Constable Cao smiled bitterly and said, "there are clear twists and turns, and it is difficult to make it clear for a while. If Lord Mo doesn''t come to the County Yamen and have a face-to-face communication with he Jiazhuang and other villa leaders, it will also remove the misunderstanding."


    "Of course, if Lord Mo doesn''t want to go, it''s OK. After all, Lord Mo paid the immunization money according to the laws and regulations of the imperial court. According to the law, there is nothing wrong with the Mohist school."


    Merton''s heart moved. He knew that this was the kindness of county magistrate Su Luosheng, but he shook his head slightly and said, "how can the Mojia village embarrass the county Reverend? Since these villa leaders are also close neighbors of the Mojia village and have arrived in Chang''an City, Momou will go to see these fellow villagers!"


    "Lord Mo knows the great righteousness and Cao admires him!"


    Under the leadership of constable Cao, Merton led the mob to the Chang''an County Government. When they came to a side room in the Chang''an County Government, they saw suluosheng talking and laughing with a group of gray haired old people.


    Each of these old people is a local village head, and each of them is a local real power faction. More than a dozen villages together are not a small force, and Su Luosheng dare not neglect it.


    "I''ve seen you village chiefs!" Merton saluted as soon as he entered Chang''an County Government Office.


    "No, I''ve seen Lord mohou!" the village heads quickly saluted,.


    "I didn''t expect to disturb Lord mo. today, we came here not because the people sued the officials, but because of the contradiction between the two villages." a thin old man led by him quickly explained.


    In terms of titles, Merton is a marquis. They are ordinary people. There is a world of difference in titles. People sue officials. If they don''t sue or win, they have to face ten big boards first. Besides, it''s obvious that villa leader he has also been instructed to focus the contradictions on two villages, not Merton.


    Merton looked at the emaciated old man and said indifferently, "this must be the owner of HeJiazhuang. HeJiazhuang and Mojia village are big villages in the south of the city. If there is something wrong in Mojia village, he just needs to come and inform him. Why bother to come to the county honor."


    "What''s wrong with Mohist village?" he argued. "Mohist village is all right to pay the money, but the service has not been reduced. The service of Mohist village is not equal to me."


    Before Merton came, the village chiefs were still fierce and indignant. However, when they really faced Merton, they couldn''t help being timid at the thought of the identity of each other''s marquis.


    "That is, the corvee in each village this year is at least 30% more than in previous years."


    "The villagers complain about such heavy corvee. We have no choice but to find the county to judge!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Villa leader he''s voice has just dropped, and other villa leaders agree.


    "OK! Lord Mo has arrived today. If you have any questions, you can spread them out. I just need to consider." suluosheng shouted aside.


    "Yes, if you have any requirements, you can tell them in the open. Mojia village will naturally consider them." Merton frowned.


    Village leader he gritted his teeth and said, "in my opinion, although Mojia village has paid immunization money, it is far from enough."


    The village chiefs could not help but look at Merton. However, Merton was not angry. Instead, he said calmly, "I''d like to hear it in detail."


    He Zhuang master turned to Su County Magistrate and said, "I dare to ask the county respect. Over the years, he Jiazhuang has undertaken the heaviest corvee, but there are complaints."


    Suloxon shook his head.


    The white haired villa leader he proudly said, "that''s because he Jiazhuang has been making bricks and tiles for a living. The bricks and tiles are too heavy and the roads are most seriously damaged. The county Lord assigns he Jiazhuang to repair the official roads in the south of the city every year. He Jiazhuang has never had any complaints."


    Su Luosheng answered, "then why are there so many complaints this year?"


    "That''s because the official way has been damaged most seriously this year, and the real culprit is not he Jiazhuang," he said firmly, and his eyes turned to Merton.


    "Mojia village?" Merton was stunned.


    "Yes, it''s Mojia village. Since this year, there have been countless cars and horses in and out of Mojia village. They are often loaded with heavy loads, which is more than the total number of vehicles in and out of all villages."


    "This is not to mention, and the four-wheel carriages produced in Mojia village are steel wheels. Where they pass, the official road is simply unbearable. Every time, the soil is flying and pitted."


    "Now the official roads in the south of the city have been almost damaged. An overhaul must be carried out this year."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the village heads, your words and mine directly show that Mojia village is the culprit of damaging official morality.


    Merton suddenly realized the origin of the contradiction. Mojia village embarked on the road of industrialization, the number of vehicles increased naturally, and the damage to the road was naturally very serious.


    Village leader he gritted his teeth and said, "although Mojia village has paid the immunization money, we think the immunization money paid by Mojia village is not enough to offset the damage to the official way."


    The village heads also nodded one after another, pointing their spears at Mojia village one by one.


    Su Luosheng said with a dry smile, "Lord Mo, after all, you have paid the immunization money, and these things appear again. How do you think to solve them?"


    Merton gave suluosheng a bad look. This stingy guy must have expected today''s situation. He must have made up his mind to let the Mojia village bear more corvee.


    Merton''s heart moved. Today''s matter must be solved satisfactorily. Otherwise, even if there is no legal mistake in Mojia village, he has lost three points morally.


    After all, it is because of Mojia village that the corvee of these neighboring villages increases. If it is not properly handled, the reputation of Mojia village in the south of the city is estimated to be ruined.


    Merton suddenly said, "so, in the corvee, the most difficult thing is to repair the official way?"


    "Ah!"


    The crowd immediately wondered why Merton asked so.


    "If Mojia village undertakes the task of trimming the official way every year in the future, you can see whether this matter can be solved." Merton said suddenly.


    "That''s true!" surprised villa leader he.


    HeJiazhuang is responsible for the task of rectifying officialdom every year. Naturally, he knows that the task is heavy, and the requirements are extremely strict. There are special people from the Ministry of work to check. If there is something wrong, he Jiazhuang will rework again. If Mojia village undertakes the task of rectifying officialdom, he Jiazhuang will be relieved.


    Suluosheng narrowed his eyes like an old fox and said, "Lord Mo, don''t laugh."


    "There is no proof in words," Merton said firmly.

 Chapter 328

    "What, Mojia village gave up najuan substitute service and assumed the official road in the south of the city?"


    Soon, what happened in the county government of Chang''an city soon spread in Chang''an city,


    Many people don''t understand why Merton did this. It''s reasonable to say that Mojia village doesn''t lack this money at all, and they have already paid the immunization money.


    Moreover, the repair of official roads was originally the most onerous work among all corvees. In the past, villages were unwilling to do it. If it were not for the reason that Chang''an county magistrate had been escorting HeJiazhuang to pull bricks and tiles to destroy the road, it was estimated that the repair of official roads would become a big problem.


    However, they did not expect that Mojia village took the initiative to stop this task on their own.


    "According to me, this move of Mojia village is not necessary at all. Obviously, it has paid the immunization money. Who still uses it to serve corvee? The money earned by Mojia village is more than the immunization money." some people disdained.


    "That''s right. Besides, the mojiazi is already a marquis. Where do you need to worry about other villages?" someone echoed.


    However, many people shook their heads and said, "in my opinion, it is wise for Mojia village to undertake this corvee. Mojia village itself is a big village in the south of the city, and most of the official roads in the south of the city are damaged because of Mojia village. If Mojia village does not undertake corvee this time, its reputation will be ruined."


    "You can''t contract the corvee to repair the official way every year! It''s not an easy job!"


    "According to what I said, is the Mohist family doing anything? Think about it. The Mohist family suffered a loss that time."


    "Yes!" many people nodded in their hearts, which was a burden in the eyes of many ordinary people, but they could often create miracles in the hands of Mohists.


    People talked and had different opinions. They were all paying attention to Mohist village and wondering what miracle Mohist could create this time.


    In the Mo mansion.


    Merton quietly looked at the map of the official road in the south of the city on the table. Fu Bo, Xu Jie and Li Yi, who came from Mojia village, frowned and surrounded each other.


    The official road in the south of the city is fifty miles long and three feet wide, and it is repaired by a village in Mojia village. The task this time is not light.


    Li Yi looked at Merton and immediately complained: "young master, this is too reckless. The official road in the south of the city has always been a difficult problem. How much burden will the Mojia village bear every year in the future."


    Merton shook his head and said, "the main reason for the damage of the official road in the south of the city is the steel wheel of the four-wheel carriage. It is Mohist village that built the four-wheel carriage, and Mohist village is also the culprit for the damage of the official road. Mohist village is duty bound to repair the road."


    Li Yi opened his mouth and wanted to advise, but when he thought about the potholes in the official way, he had to give up.


    Merton then added, "in addition, I believe other official ways are also seriously worn out."


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "the official road from Luoyang to Chang''an city is the busiest. There are many four-wheel carriages, and the official road is also seriously damaged."


    He often runs to Chang''an and Luoyang, and is most familiar with the situation of this route.


    "I''m afraid the sales of wagons have decreased a lot!" Merton sighed.


    Li Yi was stunned and said, "the four wheeled carriages made in Mojia village have not been reduced recently!"


    Xu Jie said with a bitter smile: "the recent sharp increase in the sales of four-wheel carriages and four-wheel buses has covered up the problem, and the sales of four-wheel trucks have already decreased significantly."


    Merton nodded and said, "the four-wheel carriage has extremely high requirements for road leveling. The damage of local official roads will cause inconvenience to the four-wheel carriage behavior. In the future, the sales volume will decline, and the steel wheels will destroy the road too much. If this party does not solve it, even if we do not take the initiative to solve it, the imperial court will certainly criticize the Mohist School in the future."


    Li Yi frowned and said, "it''s OK to solve the problem of the wheel. Lao Zhang has built a new wheel, and a wooden ring is installed on the outer ring of the steel wheel. In this way, isn''t it the same as the previous wooden wheel, which greatly reduces the road wear, and once the wooden ring is damaged, it can be replaced to protect the steel ring from wear."


    Merton nodded. He just talked about the prototype of future tires and Lao Zhang''s head. He didn''t expect Lao Zhang to make such a substitute. This is also a method.


    "If the order goes on, all the four-wheel carriages purchased in Mojia village will be replaced with new ones free of charge!"


    Li Yi was shocked when he heard the speech and hurriedly advised: "young master, in this way, Mojia village will cost a lot!"


    The carriages sold by Mojia village are not a small number. If all of them are replaced with new wheels, the money lost by Mojia village will go to the sea.


    Merton shook his head and said, "if these carriages are allowed to damage the official way, the imperial court may prohibit the sale of four-wheel carriages. It''s not weak to make a decision early, and it''s time to understand the grievances between the Mohists and the public losers."


    Xu Jie''s heart moved. The public loser imitated a four-wheel carriage and sold a lot of carriages with the advantage of low price. If the Mojia village changed the wheels for free, the public loser would lose whether he followed or not.


    "Young master, wise!" Xu Jie couldn''t help sighing. Merton''s plan was a conspiracy. In this way, he could not only solve the problem of destroying the road by the steel wheel of the carriage, but also directly suppress the public loser.


    When Li Yi heard the speech, the Mohists and the public losers used to be sworn enemies. Now they are competitors. If they can attack the public losers, the Mohists will not hesitate.


    Moreover, at this time, it is not a black hand against the public losers, but fair competition. Even if the public losers lose, they have nothing to do. Moreover, this time, the villages in the south of the city jointly forced the palace, and there is no shadow of the public losers behind it.


    After solving the wheel problem, Merton looked again at the map of the official road in the south of the city. Ning Sheng said: "the official road is damaged. One reason is that the steel wheels of the four-wheel carriage are severely worn. On the other hand, the official road is mostly compacted with soil. Once it is rainy and snowy, it is muddy and can''t bear the weight of the four-wheel carriage."


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "dongweng is right. Most of the four wheeled carriages bear four or five thousand kilograms. Even the official roads of the Tang Dynasty can''t bear it, and other roads can''t bear it."


    Merton nodded: "This is also the most important reason to limit the sales of four wheeled carriages. The most important reason why I agreed to build the official road in the south of the city is that the current road does not fit the four wheeled carriages at all. If this time, Mojia village can build a road that can bear four wheeled carriages, you can think about it. In time, all roads in Datang will be able to bear four wheeled carriages What scale will the sales of carriages in Mojia village be without damage? "


    The three of them suddenly breathed. If so, the four-wheel carriage business would certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the profits made by Mojia village could not be compared with that of trimming the official roads in the south of the city.


    "Xu admired dongweng for his foresight." Xu Jie sighed.


    Merton said meaningfully: "the world is peeping into the way of getting rich in Mojia village. Today, Mojia village will pass on the most important secret to the world."


    "If you want to be rich, build roads first!"

 Chapter 329

    "If you want to be rich, build roads first."


    Li Shimin repeated this sentence, with a playful smile at the corners of his eyes.


    Pound nodded and said, "Eighteen villages in the south of the city jointly sued Mojia village for destroying the official road. Mojia village and Chang''an County Government agreed that the corvee in Mojia village contracted the official road in the south of the city every year. Then the secret of getting rich came from Mojia village."


    Li Shimin sighed, "the world has been peeping into the way to get rich in Mojia village, but it never thought that even if you sit on Baoshan empty, if the traffic is inconvenient, I''m afraid it''s almost like sand."


    Li Shimin has a deep understanding of this. Since the founding of the people''s Republic of China, Li Tang has always paid great attention to road construction, and one of the key points of corvee every year is the repair of official roads.


    In particular, Chang''an city itself is an international metropolis with convenient transportation and developed roads.


    Pound hesitated and continued, "according to the legend of Mojia village, there is another sentence after this sentence."


    "Oh!" Li Shimin suddenly became interested and asked curiously.


    "If you want to be rich, build roads first, have more children and trees." pound read in cadence, but it rhymed very well.


    "Have more children and more trees!" Li Shimin read this several times and couldn''t help laughing.


    Pound could not help shaking his head and laughing.


    It has to be said that Merton''s doggerel is indeed very appropriate. The Tang Dynasty implements the land equalization system, which grants land according to the average population. More children will naturally grant more land. Moreover, in this era, manpower is the most important labor force. The prosperity of the family often means that the labor force is sufficient and the family is rich.


    As for many kinds of trees, since the prevalence of disposable chopsticks in the Tang Dynasty, the consumption of wood in Chang''an city is a terrible figure. The price of wood can be said to have been rising all the time. In addition, in this era, it is difficult to transport wood, and it is usually to get materials nearby. If there are a large number of trees around Chang''an City, it is really a lot of income.


    "It does make some sense!" Li Shimin smiled. Among other things, a variety of trees are very good for his appetite. Datang is managing the Yellow River, and the most important thing is to Guangzhong trees. If you use this sentence to promote it, you may certainly get miraculous results.


    "Lord Mo really has great talent. In a simple word, he tells us how to get rich." pound smiled.


    "This boy is really talented, but they are all crooked talents. They show off his crooked poems all day!" Li Shimin also laughed and scolded. Which scholar doesn''t see the poems so sacred, but Merton keeps crooked poems.


    "But I always feel that Morton is going to make a moth by taking the initiative to build the road." Li Shimin couldn''t help but feel a bad premonition.


    Pound frowned and said uncertainly, "that''s not true. Mohist craftsmanship is unique in the world. Mohist village builds roads and official roads in the south of the city. Your majesty can rest assured."


    "I hope so!" sighed Li Shimin.


    In fact, it''s not just Li Shimin who pays attention to Merton''s road construction. In fact, many people in Chang''an city are paying attention to it. After all, the Mojia Zi is a man of the moment in Chang''an city. He took the initiative to build the road. People are not curious. You know, the things that Mojia Zi made that time are extremely sensational every time and are still talking about it with relish.


    Sure enough, just after the first day of road construction, the hot news immediately spread all over Chang''an city.


    "The Mohists ploughed the official way."


    "Plough!" people who heard this news were stunned. All along, the corvee renovation of official roads has always been to fill some potholes with soil and then tamp them slowly, while Mojia village plowed the whole official road in a word.


    The little official in charge of supervising the road construction in Mojia village was shocked and ran back to the county government to report to Su Luosheng.


    "What?" Su Luosheng was shocked at the news.


    It turns out that although the official road is old, it can be used after repair. However, once the official road is ploughed in Mojia village, how long will it take to tamp it again.


    "Mojia Zi!" suluosheng regretted. He knew that Mojia Zi often made amazing moves, but he didn''t expect that he was frightened this time.


    Now he doesn''t know whether he has made the right decision to build roads in Mojia village.


    "From a small point of view, the Mohist must be dissatisfied and deliberately retaliate against the county honor. The official road in the south of the city has been completely destroyed!" the petty official has a desire to die. He was originally a supervisor. If the Mohist village destroys the official road, he must also be involved.


    Su Luosheng shook his head and said, "what''s the use of mojiazi ploughing the road? Can he still plough in that kind of land? He must tamp it back for me inch by inch in the future."


    The petty official frowned and said, "did Lord Su forget the construction period of the work department?"


    Su Luosheng immediately couldn''t sit still. He immediately put down his official duties and stood up and said, "go and have a look in the south of the city."


    Nancheng gate is in full swing, and the whole Nancheng gate has become a huge construction site.


    Su Luosheng looked up and saw that a group of Mohist children were driving their horses to plough, which was just built outside the Nancheng gate, leaving only the passage through two carriages for the entrance and exit of the Nancheng gate.


    Hearing the news, the citizens of Chang''an came to watch the excitement, pointing aside and marveling. I''ll see you for the first time for such a strange road construction.


    Under the leadership of the Mohist children, Su Luosheng searched for a long time before he found Merton, who was commanding with a helmet.


    "There are the most vehicles walking at the gate of the city, and the plow is half a foot deep within a mile south of the city."


    Merton told a Mohist boy, and then looked up at the magistrate of Su County.


    Su Luosheng said with a wry smile, "Lord Mo has a great hand. You only need to repair the official way. Why should Lord Mo renovate all of it."


    When he came to the official road, he found that Merton did not build a road, but built a new road.


    Merton shook his head, pointed to the other half of the potholed official road and said, "the official road in the south of the city is seriously damaged. If it is all tamped with soil, there will not be so many manpower in Mojia village."


    Suluosheng said foolishly, "so Lord Mo plowed the official way. Isn''t he working harder?"


    Merton laughed and said, "there are many horses in Mojia village. Two horses and one plow are several times more efficient than manpower.


    When Merton really built the road, he found that if he really rammed the road by manpower, it would be faster to renovate it.


    Su Luosheng narrowed his eyes and said, "can Lord Mo know that it''s really easy to use a horse plow, but what about tamping the road in the future?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "what the Mohists are most proud of is us. It''s not our strength, but our tools. The Mohist village doesn''t plan to tamp the road with manpower. The Mohist village is ready to flatten it."


    Merton casually pointed to a huge steel cylindrical giant like a stone: "This is a new tool of the Mohist school. It is a roller specially prepared for road construction. It is made of steel. The outer circle is empty. When rolling the road, it can be filled with sand and earth to increase its weight. The effect is comparable to rammed earth. However, eight horses can be pulled to repair the road three miles a day. The Mohist village has prepared and built ten for this."


    Su Luosheng was shocked. This road construction method can be described as subversive. The efficiency is indeed amazing, but the consumption is also amazing. I''m afraid no one can complete it except the rich Mojia village.

 Chapter 330

    Su Luosheng breathed a sigh of relief. Although the move of Mojia village cost a lot, it was a great benefit to Chang''an County.


    Chang''an is the imperial capital and has extremely high requirements for roads. Mojiazi renovated the whole road surface and the Ministry of work will accept it in the future. Naturally, he can be rated as the first-class. Naturally, as a county magistrate, he shares weal and woe.


    However, Su Luosheng had just returned to the county government office. He saw the small supervisor running over and said, "county magistrate, it''s bad. The Mexican family turned over the road and paved the road with sorghum straw."


    "How can people drive when sorghum stalks pave the road?" Su Luosheng was surprised at his speech.


    In this era, there is no concept of bean curd residue engineering, but Su Luosheng can imagine that paving with sorghum straw is more bean curd residue than bean curd residue.


    When Suluo rushed to the south of the city angrily and badly, he saw Merton directing his men and horses to lay a thin layer of sorghum straw below.


    Faced with the guidance of the people in Chang''an City, Merton was happy and self-centered.


    "Lord Mo, what does this mean? The most important thing about the road is the foundation. How can we pave the road with sorghum stalks?" Su Luosheng said with an iron face.


    "The county respects no worries. This is the Mohist method of paving roads with sorghum straw. The purpose of paving with sorghum straw is to prevent the soil from soft collapse. After paving with sorghum straw, the road bearing capacity will be doubled." Merton explained.


    "Are you sure? If the subgrade is damaged, you and I can''t bear it!" suluosheng said with a cloudy and uncertain face.


    He looked up at the surrounding people, and he did not know how many eyeliners were in it. Now, what happened on the official road has already spread throughout the ears of the court officials.


    Merton said confidently, "don''t worry, county Lord. This is related to the reputation of Mojia village. How can Momou joke."


    When Su Luosheng thought that the Mohists would contract this road every year in the future, he thought that the Mohists would not pit themselves. He was a little relieved. Looking at Merton, he smiled bitterly and said, "Lord MOH is really difficult for ordinary people to understand. But if he does this again in the future, please inform the people of Chang''an City in advance to avoid panic."


    "Please obey the orders of the county magistrate." Merton said absently. As for the Mo family, only God knows.


    Suluosheng sighed in his heart that he didn''t have a strong heart to work with the Mo family. It was impossible. He could only secretly order the small supervisor to report any abnormal behavior of Merton in the future.


    Soon after su Luosheng left again, Qin Huaiyu and the three came to hear the news.


    Seeing the sorghum stalks on the ground, they couldn''t help but smack their tongue. They knew what the Mo family was doing. It was impossible not to make some movement.


    "Brother Mo, why? Even if you repair it well this year, it will be full of holes after a year of rolling." Qin Huaiyu shook her head and said.


    Merton shook his head and said proudly, "they haven''t seen the Mohist road building."


    "Brother Mo, do you have any more moves?" Chumo said strangely.


    "This is just the beginning," said Merton with a faint smile as he rushed out of the south gate


    Under the puzzled eyes of the three, they saw a cart of lime pulled out of Chang''an City and scattered all on the freshly ploughed road.


    Then, the water tankers filled with water sprinkled on the lime. When the water met the white ash, it soon bubbled and emitted a lot of white smoke.


    For a while, Mojia village bought all the lime in Chang''an, and the official roads in the south of the city were full of smoke, covering more than 50 miles.


    "I inform the county Lord that mojiazi bought all the lime in Chang''an City and scattered it on the road."


    Chang''an County Government.


    Suluosheng listened to the report of the supervisor with a dull face.


    "Oh!" suluosheng answered with a wooden voice and immediately bowed down to continue working.


    The overseer said anxiously, "the county magistrate doesn''t care. Loess has always been flying on the official road. If lime is added, it''s not white dust all over the sky."


    Even if the earth road is compacted again and worn by the wheels, it will still be rolled into very small loess particles. Once the wind blows, the loess will fly all over the official road.


    But now, the Mohist School sprinkled lime again. The supervisor shivered at the thought of the white scene of pedestrians passing through the official road in the south of the city on a windy day.


    Su Luosheng patted the shoulder of the overseer and said, "the Mo family has always acted in the sky. If you could guess his mind, you would have been a senior official and promoted step by step."


    With admiration on his face, Su Luosheng turned and walked to the side room. His face suddenly turned blue. Now the Mo family has plowed all the official roads. What else can he do? Who is willing to take over.


    Even what mojiazi became, he also recognized it. Now the only thing he can do is believe in mojiazi, believe that mojiazi can create miracles again and build an official road that everyone is satisfied with.


    Work department!


    "Lord Shangshu, the Mohist school is extremely arrogant in building roads. Will the Ministry of work come forward and scold him?"


    When he was angry, he sorted out all the road construction in Mojia village one by one and presented it to Duan Lun, the Minister of work.


    It is the task of the Ministry of work to build roads. How can the Ministry of work not know that the Mohists have made such a big noise in the official roads in the south of the city.


    "Yes! The Mohists are young and ignorant. How can they know the difficulty of building roads? If they fool around according to the Mohists'' character and delay the construction period, we will also be deeply implicated."


    Many officials of the Ministry of work also helped one after another.


    Duan Lun looked at all the road construction steps of mojiazi''s appearance, and his face became more and more dignified. After a long time, he handed over the copy to the officials of the Ministry of work.


    "This is the Mohist road building method that will be supervised and sorted out. You all come to discuss it to see if it is mischievous and announce whether it should intervene." Duan Lun called a group of officials from the Ministry of works.


    The world can''t understand Merton''s behavior, but Duan Lunxin, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, doesn''t think so. Mojia village has repeatedly created miracles. Facts have proved that many people who question Mojia Zi''s behavior have been beaten in the face. Duan Lun doesn''t like to follow suit again.


    The waiter of the Ministry of work took a look and frowned: "the official road in the south of the city is really badly damaged. The lower official once went to check it. It is really useless. There are fewer Mohist workers, many cattle and horses, and advanced technology. Ploughing first and pressing later can not only give full play to the advantages of Mohism, but also greatly shorten the working hours."


    "Can the Ministry of construction use this method for reference in road construction in the future?" Duan Lun asked.


    The waiter of the Ministry of work shook his head and denied: "this method seems too fast, but it is very expensive. The cattle and horses needed are not a small number."


    Now the Ministry of work repairs the official roads, all of which are corvee. Manpower tamps the official roads, manpower is free, loess is free, and all the budgets are not much at all. Why spend a lot of money on building roads!


    The general made a sneer and said, "the official road in the south of the city was originally damaged by the Mojia village. The Mojia village should spend more money. Even if the plowing road is right, what about the road paved with sorghum straw? Your colleagues have heard of it."


    "This...!"


    For a moment, a group of officials of the Ministry of works immediately hesitated and shook their heads. Looking at the records of the Ministry of works, they had never seen such a road construction method.

 Chapter 331

    "Is this the way to imitate the clay embryo? I once heard that when people build houses, straw will be added into the clay embryo, so the clay embryo will be particularly strong." a master of the Ministry of work wondered.


    As soon as their eyes lit up, they immediately applauded the case and said, "the Mohist school is really different from ordinary people. Straw and mud are the common method among the people. The world uses them to build houses. How could they ever think of using this method to build roads.


    "As for the method of paving roads with sorghum straw, although it has never been tested, according to the folk method, this method must be very good. If Mohist Zi''s move can succeed, it must solve a big problem for the Ministry of work to build roads." Duan Lun nodded.


    In fact, sorghum straw bedding is the most primitive geotextile. Compared with various professional fabrics in later generations, the effect is naturally poor. However, it has been an advanced method in the Tang Dynasty.


    General Zuo''s face suddenly sank. He didn''t expect such a reversal.


    "As for lime paving, this is a good recipe. As early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, it was recorded that lime mixed with soil paving can solidify the road surface and make the road not easy to muddy. However, another official of the Ministry of works smiled bitterly.


    Everyone knows that this side is really good. There is still one biggest disadvantage, that is, it costs money.


    The price of lime is not a problem of one car and two cars. There is a large amount of lime needed to build roads.


    "It''s said that mojiazi built official roads in the south of the city and bought all the lime in Chang''an city." the Shaofu supervisor said softly.


    All the officials immediately smacked their tongue, which was a lot of money.


    Many officials of the Ministry of work have a sudden change of mind. Among the three provinces and six ministries of the Ministry of work, only the Ministry of work has the smallest right, and most of them use corvee.


    Although the Mohist road building method costs money, they don''t use their own money to build roads. They can apply to the imperial court for funding. In this way, the money and power controlled by the Ministry of works must be doubled.


    All the officials of the Ministry of work turned their minds and secretly planned.


    "Seeing is better than hearing. The official road in the south of the city is not far. It''s not too late for us to check after the Mohist school has built the road." Duan Lun, the Minister of industry, said with an urgent mood.


    If the Mohists really built an official way that satisfied all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the work department can naturally follow the trend, otherwise the work department will have nothing but joy.


    Under the attention of Chang''an City, the road construction of Mojia village was carried out in an orderly manner, ploughing the road, laying the bottom with sorghum straw, mixing ash and flattening. Just when most of the people in Chang''an City returned from corvee, the road construction project of Mojia village came to an end.


    "This is the road built by the Mohists?"


    He Jiazhuang''s children, who returned from the corvee service under the leadership of villa leader he, were shocked to see eight horses pulling a huge iron shoe to flatten the official road in the south of the city.


    "How much effort does it take for the Mohist village to repair the whole official road?" villa leader he''s son couldn''t help but lower his head, touch the white soil mixed with lime and smack his tongue.


    "I''m sure I''ll offend the Mohist village this time!" villa leader he couldn''t help looking pale, because he took the lead in suing the Mohist village and asked the Mohist village to build this official road. Now the Mohist village costs so much, how can the Mohist village not resent him.


    The young and strong of other villages also returned from corvee one after another. When they saw the road construction of Mojia village one by one, they couldn''t help but be awed.


    Many villages in the south of the city immediately walked around all night and hugged each other to prevent revenge from Mojia village.


    Outside the south gate,


    Merton accompanied Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, walking on the extremely flat official road and proudly said, "Lord Duan, how about this road?"


    Duan Lun was shocked to see the iron roller pulled by eight horses and compacted the road back and forth. He didn''t know how much faster it was than rammed earth.


    "Yes, it''s really good. Mohist craft is really unique in the world." Duan Lun sighed.


    The previous official road will be potholes, but the soil will be directly filled and compacted. The whole official road is like a patch, which is very unsightly. The newly filled place does not fit well with the original, and it is easy to be damaged again.


    When Mojia village renovated this, not only the potholes and potholes have all disappeared, but also the whole pavement is like a whole, which is extremely beautiful.


    "It''s really nice to put on airs, but I don''t know whether it''s useful or not." will be the young supervisor said strangely.


    When Merton saw that he would be a young supervisor, he immediately sneered. He would be a supervisor under the Ministry of work. When he was fighting drought years ago, he wanted the secret of Mohist steelmaking, but was rejected by Merton. Therefore, the Mohist village was hostile and would be a supervisor. Unexpectedly, he was so narrow-minded that he took the opportunity to retaliate.


    "Little supervisor, you can rest assured that Mo made a military order for this road in the county. In the future, the corvee will be contracted for this road every year. If there is any damage, Mojia village will bear it." Merton said proudly.


    Duan Lun immediately said with a smile: "if you want to be rich, build the road first. I believe that the mojiazi who can shout such slogans will not be slack in building the road."


    "Thank you for your trust," Morton said to Duan Lun.


    Duan Lun looked at the official road in the south of the city and couldn''t help admiring it. What satisfied Duan Lun most was that the original official road was set up with mounds every other mile along the road, named Hou. Now, Mojia village has flattened Hou and replaced it with a milestone with words.


    "East Luoyang, West Fufeng! Nanmojia village."


    "There are still fifty miles from here to Mojia village."


    The bright signboard is much more beautiful than the original tuhou, and it has the function of pointing. I don''t know how much better it is than the original tuhou.


    Will be a young supervisor. He was cold in his heart. He wanted to criticize Merton for changing the official signs of the Tang Dynasty without authorization, but he had to give up when he saw Duan Lun''s great appreciation for the road signs.


    "Just... Why is this road much lower than both sides?" Duan Lun hesitated.


    What did he think? How did he think that the subgrade of the official road was lower? In this way, I''m afraid it would be muddy in rainy and snowy weather.


    "Shangshu, you have a good eye. This road is still far from the last step." Merton nodded.


    "Still a step away?" Duan Lun frowned. Except that the subgrade of this road is slightly lower, the others are perfect. Even if it is accepted by the Ministry of work now, it is not impossible. However, in the eyes of mojiazi, it is only a semi-finished product.


    Suddenly, many officials of the Ministry of works looked at them one after another.


    Merton smiled and said, "you will know tomorrow."


    A group of officials from the Ministry of works personally tested the strength and hardness of the official road and the road construction tools in Mojia village. They all watched with interest until the sun tilted to the West. They reluctantly returned to Chang''an city.


    The sunset set and the gate of Chang''an City closed.


    "Young master, it''s ready!" Xu Jie whispered behind Merton.


    At this time, no one found that Merton did not return to Chang''an City, but stayed outside Chang''an city.


    Merton was busy all day, but he was not tired at all. Instead, he said excitedly, "there is no road in the world. If there are many people walking, it will become a road. Let the Mohists build an unprecedented road that shocked the Tang Dynasty!

 Chapter 332

    Night fell.


    The rainbow lights of the whole Chang''an city are always on! brilliantly illuminated.


    Although there is a curfew in Chang''an City, there are many rich families after all. Every night, every family lights up lights in the square city.


    On the south gate, two guards stood on the South Tower of Chang''an city. Looking at it, it seemed as if they were covered with a layer of blurred brilliance and had a unique scenery. This was the only fun of the gate guard every night. Once it was later, it would be a long night.


    "What''s that?" suddenly a guard pointed behind him and exclaimed.


    Another guard suddenly turned around and looked towards the official road in the south of the city. On the dark official road in the south of the city, a torch was particularly dazzling.


    Then one torch after another was lit, and the lights were like a long dragon, lasting for several miles.


    The two guards were shocked and faced the enemy. This is Chang''an city. If something goes wrong, they must be overwhelmed.


    "Don''t be alarmed. This is Mojia village. They are rushing to build roads all night. They have already reported to me." a voice sounded behind them.


    "General!" the two guards bowed when they saw the visitor.


    He was officially the new guard General of Nancheng gate. He was not embarrassed at the request of Mojia village, but readily agreed. You know, the last guard General of Nancheng gate is still eating sand on the Great Wall. He doesn''t want to take the lesson of taking office again.


    Moreover, the road construction of Mojia village is outside Chang''an City, and in order to avoid suspicion, it is guaranteed that it will not be close to Chang''an City for a mile.


    "Road construction in Mojia village? Hasn''t the road at nanchengmen been completed?" they often take turns at nanchengmen. Naturally, they know the process of road construction in Mojia village.


    The road of the whole official road in the south of the city has long been built flat. It can be said that it is in the crown. How can such a road be repaired again?


    The guard of nanchengmen smiled bitterly and said, "who knows, it may also be the officials of the Ministry of work to check, and some still need to be corrected! After all, it is almost the date of acceptance by the Ministry of work, and it is normal for Mojia village to rush to work overnight."


    The two guards also nodded suddenly and looked at the long lights in the distance. They not only sighed secretly that it is a luxury for ordinary people to light lights, but Mojia village has torches for miles, which are specially used to build roads. It is worthy of being the richest village in the south of the city.


    The torch leaped and shone on Xu Jie and Merton''s faces, showing a different kind of red light.


    "Young master, we really want to do this!" Xu Jie couldn''t help trembling.


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "let''s start!"


    With Merton''s order, four-wheel carriages drove out of the darkness. Soon, a group of Mohist children wrote down green bricks from the car and spread them on the road one by one.


    The road is paved with green bricks. If anyone learns of the move of Mojia village, he will be shocked.


    At present, green bricks are a luxury, which can only be used by rich and noble families. Most of the houses built by ordinary people are thatched houses built with green bricks on the ground floor and mud embryos on the top. All the new houses in Mojia village are built with bricks and tiles, which has long been the envy of the surrounding villages.


    When the shortcomings of the wagon were exposed, Merton knew that if he wanted to solve it, he had to imitate the hardened pavement of later generations.


    Brick road is the lowest hardened road in later generations, but it is appalling in the Tang Dynasty. If Merton paves the road during the day, it will be blocked by many people. Therefore, Merton has to act overnight to create the established facts.


    When the world knows the benefits of brick road, everything will be a foregone conclusion.


    "The green bricks are ready!" asked Merton.


    Xu Jie took a deep breath: "I inform you, young master, the bricks of more than a dozen kilns around Chang''an City have been wrapped up, and finally enough for the young master."


    Fortunately, there are many rich households in Chang''an City, many of which are village kilns, and Xu Jie placed huge orders more than 20 days in advance, otherwise Xu Jie could not gather so many bricks in a short time.


    "He Jiazhuang is also in it!" under the fire, a slight radian appeared at the corner of Merton''s mouth.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "according to the young master''s orders, all the bricks in HeJiazhuang have been bought."


    Merton said, "then let them pull it all night!"


    He Jiazhuang was stunned when he Jiazhuang sent out and pulled all the green bricks of the nail device to the official road in the south of the city.


    "How dare you pave the road with green bricks!" villa leader he trembled with anger!


    Merton nodded, "why not?"


    "It''s a monstrous thing!" villa leader he said painfully.


    In his mind, green bricks are used to build houses and walls. Even if HeJiazhuang has burned bricks for many years, there are only some roads paved with broken bricks in the village. He never thought of paving roads with intact bricks.


    Merton snorted coldly, "why not build roads with bricks? Aren''t Zhuque street paved with bricks? Besides, how can Mojia village toss about in this official road every year?"


    The pavement of Zhuque street located on the central axis is paved with bricks. There are drainage ditches and street trees on both sides of the road. When Merton saw Zhuque street, he made up his mind to build a brick road in Mojia village.


    But at that time, Mojia village had just started, and Merton could only put his mind on Annah for the time being.


    When the villages in the south of the city forced the Mojia village, Merton seized the opportunity, took advantage of the situation and gave himself an excuse to build roads.


    "You are deliberately taking over the task of renovating the official way!" villa leader he said bitterly.


    Only then did he understand why Merton promised so readily at that time, and made a military order to continue to contract the road in the future.


    People are afraid of Merton''s repentance. So it seems that the Mexican family is afraid of their repentance.


    Before, he was proud to show off that his village finally threw out the official road in the south of the city, but unexpectedly, he hit the calculation of Mojia village.


    Merton smiled in the firelight., It goes without saying.


    Xu Jie snorted coldly, "villa leader he is here to sell bricks today. How we use them is our own business. If villa he doesn''t sell, there are kiln factories in Chang''an City who are willing to sell bricks to Mojia village. You know, our Mojia village can offer a high price!"


    Villa leader he looked uncertain. More than ten villages forced the Mojia village to the palace. Instead, they fell into the plan of the Mojia village. Not only did they have no loss, but they also easily solved the corvee every year in the future.


    Among the villages, other villages are villains. He Jiazhuang is the only one who makes a profit by buying bricks. He wants to cooperate with the Mojia village. In this way, he Jiazhuang has sinned against other villages.


    "Why don''t you sell!" villa leader he thought about the three interest time and immediately clapped his mind.


    With the super large order of Mojia village, he Jiazhuang knows that it is poisonous and has to swallow it. After all, there are so many people in he Jiazhuang who live by selling bricks. If you lose such a large order, you can''t take yourself as the villa leader.


    Merton and Xu Jie smiled at each other and settled the thorn head of Hejia village. The villages in the south of the city will be scattered sand and will no longer pose a threat to Mojia village.

 Chapter 333

    The night was quiet, and the city of Chang''an was quiet and peaceful.


    Outside Chang''an City, lights are blaring and hot.


    When the sky slowly turned white and the night receded, the scenery in the distance slowly became clear.


    The gate guard yawned and looked into the distance. The night scenery in Chang''an City and the morning scenery outside Chang''an city are rare enjoyment for the gate guard,


    Suddenly, the two city gate guards had a meal. They couldn''t believe it. They rubbed their eyes and saw a long blue dragon winding along the official road in the south of the city.


    As the day slowly dawned, the line of sight gradually became clear. The two people gradually saw that the long blue dragon was all paved with green bricks.


    I saw a cart of green bricks as if they didn''t want money. A group of Mohist children tirelessly paved their green bricks on the official road, and the blue long dragon slowly approached Chang''an city.


    Soon, all the guards of the south gate were startled and went up the wall one after another. When they saw the scene outside the city, they suddenly took a breath.


    "The son of the Mo family, the black sheep of the family!" the guard of the Nancheng gate gnashed his teeth.


    Suddenly, all the guards of the South Gate nodded deeply.


    Every green brick needs money. The Mohists spread the green brick on the road, which is like sprinkling a lot of money on the ground.


    "Report now!"


    The Nancheng gate guard nodded solemnly. Although the matter was not within the scope of the Nancheng gate guard''s authority, he still felt it necessary to report it.


    "Yes!"


    Immediately, the gate guard took command, ran down the wall and ran towards the palace.


    Also shocked are the merchants who come and go. Nancheng gate has always been the main way for merchants to get in and out. As usual, they gather at the Nancheng gate and wait to enter Chang''an city.


    Today, they are stunned to see that many Mohist children are constantly busy. As businessmen, they value the most profits. How can they not understand that Mohist village builds a road, so regardless of the cost.


    In order to avoid suspicion, Merton specially left the official road within a mile in the south of the city when laying the brick road overnight. If it is bright today, naturally, there is no need to avoid it and spare no effort to lay the remaining mile of official road.


    The paving speed of Mojia village is faster and faster. A mile of official road is fully paved in Mojia village. Soon, it is approaching the Nancheng gate.


    With the first ray of sunshine shining on the south gate, the last brick was finally inlaid and the South brick road was officially completed.


    At the same time, the South Gate burst open.


    The green brick official road outside the city gate is connected with the broad and tidy Zhuque Avenue, which is like a perfect match and a natural pair.


    "Hiss!"


    When the people in Chang''an City were ready to leave the city, they saw the brand-new brick road under their feet. They were shocked and unsure. They had a feeling that they were not willing to step down.


    "This is the road built by the Mohist school!" everyone looked at the blue brick road in front of them in shock, which suddenly became the reason why the Mohist school took great pains to renovate the brick road.


    Although Zhuque street is paved with bricks, it is the most important street in Chang''an City, and people are not surprised in Chang''an city.


    However, the official road in the south of the city is an official road for pedestrians outside Chang''an city. It''s too extravagant and wasteful to pave the road with green bricks.


    Soon, the news of Mohist paving with green bricks spread all over Chang''an City, and suddenly the whole Chang''an City became restless.


    "I said that the MOH family took the initiative to build roads. It must be strange. As expected, it didn''t come out of my expectation."


    "All the roads are paved with green bricks. How many bricks do you need? How much does it cost!"


    "The son of the Mo family, the black sheep of the family!" they all raised the same sigh in their hearts.


    In the Qin mansion.


    When Qin Huaiyu heard the report from the housekeeper, he jumped up, waved his hand excitedly and said, "I knew it, I knew it."


    Qin Huaiyu knew Merton very well. He knew that anything Merton actively participated in would certainly have exciting things. Originally, he saw that Merton''s official road was very boring. He went there several times and didn''t go again. Unexpectedly, he missed the most wonderful part.


    Qin Huaiyu jumped up and said to the housekeeper, "go to Cheng''s house and Yuchi''s house immediately, invite the two young masters, and say I''ll wait for him in the official road in the south of the city."


    Then he jumped on the horse and ran towards the south of the city.


    There are not a few people who think the same as Qin Huaiyu. In an instant, Chang''an city rushed out to the official roads in the south of the city and was witnessing the black sheep behavior of the Mohist school.


    In the Tai Chi hall, the great court meeting is going on.


    "Tell your majesty! Most of the earth dams in Guanlong have been completed. Next year''s rainy season will come, and it will certainly have a miraculous effect on controlling the sediment of the Yellow River." changsun Wuji reported.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Earth dam is the top priority in the Yellow River control project, and it doesn''t cost money.


    Then all the departments of the Ministry of work also presented good news one after another. The whole scene was harmonious and the monarchs and ministers got it.


    Suddenly, pound suddenly came forward and whispered a few words to Li Shimin.


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin suddenly changed his face and said in a surprised voice.


    "The guard in the south of the city is just outside the palace. Your majesty can summon him in person." pound affirmed.


    Seeing this, the eldest sun Wuji couldn''t help asking, "Your Majesty, what''s the situation?"


    Li Shimin''s face was uncertain and said, "just now, the bodyguard in the south of the city reported that the boy of the Mohist School paved the road with green bricks."


    "Green brick paving?"


    The courtiers were puzzled. They also had brick roads in their homes, but they were not easy to use. Most of them used bluestone slabs or broken stone roads.


    Qin Qiong hurriedly came forward and explained, "don''t blame the emperor. It''s not uncommon to pave the road with green bricks. I''m in Weichen''s house..."


    Before Qin Qiong finished, she heard Li Shimin gnashing his teeth and saying, "he is not laying his own house, but the whole official road."


    "Spread all over the official road."


    Suddenly, the man Dynasty cultural relics were stunned there.


    "Just like rosefinch street," Li Shimin added.


    "Merton, the black sheep of the family!" Qin Qiong roared involuntarily.


    The monarch and Minister immediately nodded deeply.


    Many ministers involuntarily turned their eyes to Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of works, who was in charge of the road construction of Mohist school.


    Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of work, suddenly changed his face and waved his hand again and again. "The emperor has nothing to do with the Ministry of work. Wei Chen never knew that Lord Mo was so extravagant and licentious.


    Apart from extravagance and debauchery, Duan Lun really can''t think of any other adjectives to describe Merton''s crazy behavior.


    It is also road construction. Other villages tamp the road with soil to keep the road flat, but the mojiazi has played tricks in road construction.


    First, the official road was ploughed, then the sorghum straw was laid, and finally all the crazy people were laid with green bricks.


    Li Shimin also took a deep breath and said, "Dear Aiqing, since Merton has given us such a big surprise, how can we waste a good intention? You will go with me to see how the first loser of the Tang Dynasty broke his family."


    "Yes!" the officials laughed and shouted in unison.

 Chapter 334

    Official road in the south of the city.


    It has long been crowded by the city residents of Chang''an.


    Looking at the green brick road extending to the south, I couldn''t help but smack my tongue.


    "How much money did you say Mozi spent this time?" many people were jealous and guessed one after another.


    "It''s said that this brick road has been built to Mojia village for at least 50 miles. The price of green bricks is..." a scholar dressed in an accounting room was shocked when he pinched his fingers and counted.


    "At least ten thousand passes!"


    Shangwanguan! People who have heard of it know that building brick roads must be an astronomical number, but they didn''t expect so many.


    "Tell your majesty, the total cost of the road construction in Mojia village is 23000 yuan!" Li Shimin and my official climbed up the city tower on the South City building, watched the blue brick road extend to the distance, and couldn''t help asking about the cost. Merton replied respectfully.


    All the court officials smacked their tongues. They all guessed that mojiazi must have done a great deal this time. After the real account was made, they still surprised the people.


    "Only fifty miles of official roads have been built after more than 20000 passes!" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and smiled angrily. "No wonder it''s said that you Mozi are the black sheep in Chang''an city."


    Manchu officials also looked at Merton one by one with inexplicable eyes. Recently, the Mo family has gone too far in money. First, they spent money like dirt at the western regions conference.


    It wasn''t long before he took the brick as his treasure. The green brick of fifty miles of officialdom was replaced with gold, which was more than double the gold sprinkled by mojiazi at the western regions conference.


    "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty has always advocated frugality. The Mohists are extravagant, extravagant and licentious. This trend cannot last long. Please punish the Mohists severely and forbid such unhealthy tendencies." Wei Zheng trembled out of the line.


    The Tang Dynasty has always advocated thrifty governance. Li Shimin, who has just inherited the throne, used history as a mirror to warn ministers: "In the past, Yu chiseled mountains and rivers to control the people without slander and criticism. He shared the interests of others. Qin Shihuang camp the palace, but the people resent and rebel, and the patients benefit themselves. My husband is beautiful and rare. If he indulges in it because of people''s desires, he will be in danger. I want to camp a hall and stop learning from Qin. The Duke of Qin himself should understand my intention."


    With the lessons of the death of the second emperor of the Qin and Sui dynasties, it can be said that the Tang Dynasty is extremely important to be frugal. Even Li Shimin set an example. Most Manchu officials pursue frugality. At least on the surface, Manchu officials dare not even wear luxurious silk.


    The mojiazi is like a mudslide in the clear flow of the Manchu Dynasty. They wave their hands and earn tens of thousands of yuan. They raise their hands and wave the earth like gold,


    Not to mention the efficacy of the Morton brick road, the Mo family''s lavish spending of money is simply contrary to the atmosphere of the imperial court, and can''t help but make Wei Zheng angry.


    "Your Majesty, please severely punish the MOH family!" many ministers followed suit in an instant.


    For a moment, the officials were angry, as if Merton had committed a heinous crime.


    "Hey, hey! Why don''t I see that Merton is extravagant and licentious. Merton spends money to work for corvee and build roads, not for personal enjoyment." Cheng Yaojin smiled and couldn''t deny it.


    "Uh, uh!..."


    The ministers were angry and immediately gave a meal. Although Merton''s move cost a lot, it was not for personal enjoyment. Indeed, it was too much to use extravagance and debauchery.


    Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said, "although nephew Mo Xian has repeatedly acted unexpectedly, most of them have deep meaning. I don''t know Lord Mo can explain it for you."


    Qin Qiong and others also spoke to Merton one after another, and even many officials of Guanlong aristocratic family spoke for him.


    Merton immediately arched his hands with gratitude to the people, turned to salute Li Shimin and said, "tell your majesty that it is really selfish for Weichen to build brick roads. Please punish your majesty."


    As soon as Merton said this, all the officials were in an uproar. No one expected that Merton should take the initiative to admit his guilt. Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help being angry. They just said good words to Merton. They didn''t expect to turn around and Merton would dismantle their own platform.


    Li Shimin smiled angrily and said, "what''s your selfishness? Come quickly, so that I can condemn you!"


    "Weichen once made a military order in Chang''an County Government. In the future, mojiazi will undertake the official road in the south of the city every year. Weichen was whimsical and prepared to solve the ten-year corvee in Mojia village once and for all. Only then did he rashly lay this brick road."


    Li Shimin said with a look: "ten years of corvee?"


    Merton nodded: "the green brick is extremely wear-resistant and not easy to be damaged. There is no need for major repair for at least ten years. Even if the brick road is damaged ten years later, it is only a few more bricks."


    "Just a few bricks!" the officials couldn''t help twitching at the corners of their mouths. Looking at the cloud and breeze of the Mohist school, they simply deserved to be beaten.


    However, people have to admit that Mojia Zi has a long-term plan. Once this brick road is built, Mojia village will complete the corvee in ten years.


    Dai Zhou smiled and said, "Lord Mo, don''t change your concept. The ten-year exemption money of Mojia village is less than 10% of the money for road construction!"


    Li Shimin suddenly realized, yes! It is a problem that can be solved with very little money, but the Mohist son spent ten times the price. Can this be explained by ten years of corvee.


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "what Lord Dai said is very true. The Mojia village also wants to pay the exemption money. However, isn''t this provoking public anger?"


    Many officials couldn''t help laughing. All officials heard about the fact that Mojia village paid the exemption money and was jointly sued by the villages in the south of the city to Chang''an County Government.


    Li Shimin smiled and said with a straight face, "so you were forced to build this road."


    "That''s not true!" Morton couldn''t help but say, "if the Mojia village pays the exemption money, it will offend the villagers, but if the Mojia village takes corvee, it will take nearly one month every year. Ten years, it will take nearly ten months."


    Lord Dai is right. The money for road construction in Mojia village is indeed ten times the money for exemption from military service. However, the value created by the children of Mojia village in ten months is more than ten times the money for road construction. "


    Merton made a simple calculation of the accounts. People suddenly realized that the Mojia village seemed to spend a lot in front of them, but it won in the future. With so much money, ordinary villages are naturally overwhelmed, but for Mojia village, it is a cost-effective business.


    Dai Zhou laughed and said, "I''ll tell you, how can the MOH family''s calculations be so simple?"


    The officials were silent for a while. This matter seemed shocking to ordinary people, but after Merton''s analysis, everyone could understand Merton''s behavior.


    However, it''s understandable. Merton''s move is also a small move. He obviously knows how much trouble this will cause. If it is spread, there will be great resistance, so he completed the brick road overnight, resulting in the established fact. At this time, can Li Shimin tear down the brick road?

 Chapter 335

    "Wei Chen still has selfishness!" Merton said proudly, with a righteous look.


    Li Shimin can''t help but draw his cheek. How thick should this boy be? He is so shameless.


    "Since ancient times, all affluent places, without exception, have dense water and land transportation. Yangzhou is the intersection of the Grand Canal and the Yangtze River, the center of Yizhou and Shuzhou, and the roads extend in all directions. Luoyang is the center of the Grand Canal, both water and land, and Chang''an City is connected by all roads. It can be seen that roads are important to the city," Merton said.


    Li Shimin and other officials pondered carefully and found that most of the big cities were built with convenient transportation.


    "But Mojia village is adjacent to the mountain area in the south, and there is no good traffic. What should I do?" said the stall


    "If you want to be rich, build roads first!"


    Li Shimin was shocked and blurted out.


    Merton said: "yes, if you want to be rich, build roads first. Mojia village is developing day by day. There are many cars and horses. The original rammed earth official road can no longer meet the needs of Mojia village. Mojia village needs a road that can carry the load of four-wheel carriages and can walk even in rainy days."


    Merton did not shy away from talking about the selfishness and even ambition of the Mohist village in front of all officials.


    All officials could not help but look dignified. At first, they didn''t take the slogan of building roads and getting rich of Mohism to heart. They just laughed as a limerick, but they didn''t think that Mohism was not just shouting slogans. They not only analyzed the order, but also practiced it.


    "Wait, you mean it can be opened to traffic in rainy days." Cheng Yaojin suddenly exclaimed.


    Merton said proudly, "that''s natural. You''ve all walked through rosefinch Street on rainy days, but you''ve ever encountered a bit of mud."


    All officials immediately shook their heads. Naturally, Zhuque Avenue is the facade of Datang. All roads are paved with bricks. Even in heavy rain, it still does not affect normal walking.


    "In the past, every rainy day, the road was muddy, the business trip was cut off, and even the rest of the month was often interrupted. Mojia village mixed soil with lime to solidify the soil, and paved with green bricks. Even if the rainstorm was pouring, it would not affect the walking in the least." Merton explained.


    Duan Lun suddenly understood why Merton spent so much time immediately mixing lime and paving bricks.


    All officials also plan that this brick road directly leads to Chang''an City from Mojia village. From then on, Mojia village will surely enter a period of rapid development and make a lot of money.


    "If you want to be rich, you should build roads first." all officials chewed this sentence carefully and couldn''t help sighing. It can be said that although mojiazi spent so much on building roads, he can ensure the development of Mojia village in the past ten years. From the standpoint of Mojia village, it''s not too much to say that this brick road is the way to get rich in Mojia village. No wonder mojiazi built this road all night regardless of so much discussion, Create established facts.


    Wei Zheng also wanted to understand the truth, and his tone of criticism was weakened by three points.


    "Hey, law!"


    A four-wheel carriage came running along the brick road and straight to the south gate. When it was close to the gate, all officials saw clearly that it was Qin Huaiyu who was driving.


    Cheng Yaojin immediately shouted angrily, "these three smelly boys are riding in the street. See if I don''t skin them!"


    At present, all the officials are here, and the three people are riding horses in the street. Isn''t it that they fall into the hands of others and make Cheng Yaojin lose his face.


    Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Baolin are also angry. They look like they hate iron but don''t make steel.


    Merton hurriedly dissuaded: "don''t blame the three uncles. This is the road test being carried out in Mojia village. The three brothers volunteered to measure the speed of the brick road. Moreover, all intersections are guarded by Mojia children to clean the road and ensure the safety of pedestrians. Nothing will happen."


    When Qin Huaiyu saw Merton building a brick road, even they kept it from them. They rushed to ask the teacher for guilt. Merton had no choice but to hand over the brick road speed measurement to the three people, who immediately ran away excitedly.


    Cheng Yaojin fixed his eyes and found that there was a special order under the city, which was a sigh of relief.


    The brake sounded, and the carriage stopped slowly under the south gate.


    Qin Huaiyu jumped down and carried out a huge hourglass from the four-wheel carriage. Seeing that there were still a lot of sand grains just now, they immediately cheered: "a hundred miles an hour."


    The hundred mile Mojia village is just the mileage to and from Chang''an city. A four-wheel carriage runs in an hour, with an average speed of 50 miles per hour. It is naturally nothing in later generations, but it is a great speed in this era.


    "Hundreds of miles in an hour!" all the officials were startled. Chang''an city is only 800 miles away from Luoyang. If brick roads were paved, wouldn''t it be morning and night.


    Li Shimin''s mind turned sharply and his eyes were erratic.


    However, it was not over. Soon a second carriage followed, but this was a four-wheel truck.


    Mo Si jumped down from the carriage, opened the carriage and revealed a full cart of bricks. He proudly said, "double horse four-wheel truck, with a load of 5000 kg, 50 Li an hour."


    "The load is five thousand kilograms, fifty miles an hour." Li Shimin''s eyes burst.


    "Li Aiqing, how many miles is Chang''an City from Longyou?" Li Shimin asked Li Jing.


    "Back to your majesty, it''s nearly 1500 miles." Li Jing replied.


    "How long does it take for the grain and grass escort to get to Longyou from Chang''an City?" Li Shimin asked again.


    Li Jing said bitterly, "at least in January, if you encounter cloudy and rainy weather, you can''t estimate it."


    Li Shimin suddenly looked up at the official road in the south of the city, and his mood was fluctuating. It takes more than a month to travel 1500 Li, and the official road in the south of the city can travel 300 Li a day, except for eating and rest, 12 hours and 6 hours a day.


    Fifteen hundred miles, it was only five days, and even if it was a torrential rain, it could arrive as scheduled.


    In ancient times, when marching and fighting, the soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first. It can be imagined that the importance of grain and grass was very serious, and the loss of grain and grass during transportation was very serious. Ten thousand tons of grain were transported from Chang''an city to Longyou. Except for the expenses along the road, the remaining five achievements were good. It is also common for military aircraft to be delayed on rainy days. It can be said that food and grass are the key to determining the outcome of a war.


    If there is such a brick road from Chang''an city to Longyou, coupled with the super heavy load of the four-wheel carriage, it can be delivered on time in five days, and there is no loss of half along the way.


    "At the end, I will ask your majesty to build a brick road to Longyou!" Li Jing suddenly stepped out.


    His eyes are extremely vicious. At a glance, he can see how important an unimpeded logistics line is to the Datang military.


    "At the end of the day, I will ask your majesty to build this road." a group of military generals also immediately understood the significance of brick road to the military and said one after another.


    Wei Zheng immediately angrily shouted, "Merton, I''m afraid this is your real purpose. When you build this brick road, you must have calculated until today!"


    Everyone knows that Merton never forgets to destroy Tuyuhun, and even does not hesitate to give snow and salt secret skills. In Wei Zheng''s view, Merton''s throwing brick road must be to lure his majesty to build brick road and solve Tuyuhun at one fell swoop.


    Merton laughed and said, "Lord Wei, I underestimate mo. is a brick road pursued by Mo? The brick roads of the Tang Dynasty are vertical and horizontal, and the ten paths of the Tang Dynasty are connected. This is the boy''s purpose."


    All officials were surprised and looked at the ambitious Merton in disbelief.

 Chapter 336

    "There are ten roads in the Tang Dynasty, paved with brick roads, which are like connected paths." everyone couldn''t help taking a breath. I have to say that the scene depicted by Merton is too tempting.


    "Merton, do you know what you''re talking about?" Qin Qiong was surprised and shouted. She quickly turned to Li Shimin and begged: "emperor, Merton is young and ignorant and has no words to hide. Please forgive her majesty."


    Li Shimin smiled coldly and said, "I''d like to hear these words."


    Merton looked unconvinced and said proudly: "Before that, building brick roads was indeed a waste of people and money, but now, horseshoes have spread all over the Tang Dynasty. They are no longer afraid of horseshoe wear. The super heavy load of four-wheel carriages and ordinary rammed earth official roads can no longer carry them. Fortunately, in sunny days, it must be difficult to move in case of cloudy and rainy weather. It can make the time for building brick roads ripe."


    Li Shimin sneered: "can I understand that the rammed earth official road has limited the sales of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village? Your greatest selfishness is to sell the four-wheel carriages in Mojia village."


    The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also looked at Merton with a close look. It can be imagined that once the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty are built, the sales of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village will increase tenfold and become the biggest beneficiary.


    Merton nodded without hesitation and said, "Mojia village will indeed benefit from the four-wheel carriage. However, Wei Chen believes that compared with the benefits obtained by the imperial court, this benefit of Mojia village is a drop in the bucket."


    Li Shimin moved in his heart and said, "then tell me about the benefits of the imperial court."


    "First, once the brick road is completed, it will not be easy to damage. Once and for all, the people''s corvee will be reduced. Isn''t it a policy of light corvee and light tax with the imperial court?" Merton said.


    Fang Xuanling couldn''t help nodding. The annual corvee and road construction are the big head. If the brick road is paved and completed at one time, there will be no worry within ten years, and the people''s corvee will naturally be greatly reduced.


    "Second, brick roads are built, materials flow between roads, business travel is continuous, and the tax revenue of the imperial court must rise sharply."


    Wei Zheng snorted coldly, "the Tang Dynasty is based on agriculture. How much commercial tax is there?"


    Merton didn''t think so, but he didn''t refute: "the business tax is a small matter, and the real role is the circulation of materials in the Tang Dynasty. I heard that Guanzhong has always been short of grain and usually needs to export grain from outside Guanzhong. Once the brick road is built, the cost of grain transportation will be greatly reduced. The minister promised that the grain price in Guanzhong and the land of fish and rice such as Su Wu are not much expensive."


    Merton''s move suddenly mentioned the hearts of the officials. There was a serious shortage of food in Guanzhong. The cost of transporting food outside Guanzhong every year was astronomical. From Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, once there was a shortage of food in Guanzhong, the emperor would bring the palace to Luoyang for food. Later, the Tang Dynasty moved its capital to Luoyang. There was no reason. Other places did not say that Guanzhong must urgently need such a brick road ¡£


    Merton continued: "Wei Chen thinks that there are three reasons why the Tang Dynasty needs to build brick roads. The Tang Dynasty has a vast territory. Take Lingnan road as an example. The road is far away, and the documents between the imperial court and the imperial court can only be reached in more than a month. If there is a brick road from Chang''an to Lingnan, it can be reached in ten days at most. It will be five days at once. The control ability of the imperial court must be doubled.


    The place where the brick road is paved is the eternal land of the Tang Dynasty. "Merton threw the ground and said aloud. He threw out the biggest mace.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing. In the face of the emperor, everything was empty. Only his own rivers and mountains were the most important. It can be imagined that once the brick road was built and the border was unstable, the imperial court could certainly get the news in the shortest time and mobilize troops and horses to fight the rebellion at the fastest speed.


    Similarly, once the foreign enemy invades, the imperial court can also form an effective counterattack in the shortest time, and the odds of victory increase greatly.


    Li Shimin suddenly breathed rapidly and was obviously extremely excited. It can be imagined that once the brick road of the Tang Dynasty runs rampant, the imperial court''s control over all places will certainly be like an arm and finger, and the rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty will certainly be stable.


    Seeing this, Wei Zheng suddenly stood up and shouted, "Your Majesty, think twice. Have you forgotten the lessons of the Grand Canal?"


    "Grand Canal!" Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly recovered a trace of clarity.


    Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty recruited millions of people to build the Grand Canal, and finally directly shook the rivers and mountains of the Sui Dynasty.


    Wei Zheng pointed to Merton and shouted angrily, "the violent Sui Dynasty is because of the abuse of people''s power, so that II died. Merton, you have ulterior motives and confuse the emperor to take the road of emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty again."


    The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty immediately looked at Merton with bad eyes. The brick roads built in the Tang Dynasty are not much smaller than opening the Grand Canal.


    Qin Qiong and others also looked at Merton with worried eyes.


    Merton laughed and bowed his hands to the ministers: "when Wei minister was building the road, he also lamented the Grand Canal. He wrote a poem. Please appreciate it."


    If Qin Huaiyu and the three were here, they would lament, and the Mohists began to write poems again.


    At the moment, the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty showed an expectant expression. Merton said nothing else. Only the poems spread are unique among thousands. Most of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are poets. Naturally, they also want to see the good poems of the Mohists.


    "Ten thousand long Ge green silk ships will never be returned to Yangzhou.


    It should be Tianjiao kaibianshui, with no mountains for more than a thousand miles.


    The Sui Dynasty perished in this river, and now Lai Tongbo is thousands of miles away.


    If there is no dragon boat in the water hall, there will be few achievements in Gongyu''s theory. "


    When Merton finished reading a poem, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty immediately sighed. The Mohist school is indeed brilliant. It is a river for the death of the Sui Dynasty. Up to now, Lai Tongbo is thousands of miles away. This sentence can certainly become a famous sentence for thousands of years. Merton''s poem points out the reasons for the death of the Sui Dynasty and corrects the name of the Grand Canal.


    "Since the opening of the Grand Canal, dozens of cities on both sides have benefited from it. Every day, countless rice from the south is transported to the north by boat, and how many people can live. Although emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was tyrannical, Mo can assert that the achievements of the Grand Canal will certainly benefit China even after a thousand years." Merton said flatly.


    "Weichen can say impolitely that a brick road is enough to cover half of the canal." Merton said impolitely. With the bearing capacity of the brick road and the characteristics of rain and wind, its transportation volume is no less than that of the Grand Canal


    The role of the grand canal can be said. Needless to say by Merton, court officials also know that a grand canal creates countless profits for the Tang Dynasty every year, and makes the Tang Dynasty have several brick roads comparable to the Grand Canal out of thin air. The benefits can be described as great to heaven.


    Merton continued: "moreover, the Grand Canal of the Sui Yang emperor caused the people to leave their homes, and even continued to serve corvee for more than a few years, but the brick road is not. Not to mention that its construction difficulty is much smaller than the Grand Canal. The people do not need to leave their homes, but only need to recruit the people along the official road."


    When Merton finished, all officials nodded in their hearts. Compared with the Grand Canal, building brick roads is indeed less risky and has a lot of benefits.


    In fact, it''s not just Li Shimin. Many officials have been persuaded, and the military can''t wait.


    Wei Zheng snorted coldly, "it took 23000 yuan for the fifty mile official road in Mojia village! The ten roads in the Tang Dynasty are connected for more than ten thousand miles, that is, nearly 4.6 million yuan. How can the imperial court take out so much money."


    "4.6 million!"


    As soon as Wei Zheng said this, everyone suddenly took a breath.


    At the moment, the Tang Dynasty has just been established and accepted the mess of the former Sui Dynasty. There is nothing to be done. How can there be so much money. Li Shimin and others suddenly looked bleak. The brick road seemed good and the risk was low, but buying bricks alone was enough to deter people.


    Merton went up with a shy look and said, "ink has another skill..."

 Chapter 337

    "Ink has another skill!"


    Hearing the speech, all officials could not help but turn around and stare at Merton.


    The last time, when Merton told the court that ink had a skill, he directly offered the secret skill of snow and salt, changed the court''s policy towards Tuyuhun, and changed from the original beating to the war to destroy the country.


    The power of ink technology shocked all officials, but now history reappears, how can we not let all officials look at it.


    "The bricks we used before were all green bricks, which were cumbersome and expensive. However, in the far western countries, most of them used an extremely cheap red brick," Merton said.


    "Red brick?" all officials were puzzled.


    Merton nodded and said, "after months of research, the Mohists finally solved the secret technology of red brick. This red brick is simple to make, simple in steps, more solid than green brick, and more importantly, its cost is about half lower than red brick."


    Merton stretched out his hand and saw the four wheeled truck under the city wall, revealing a cart full of red bricks.


    The people in the south of the city suddenly realized that the four-wheel truck in Mojia village had a load of 5000 kg. When they saw the full truck of bricks, they believed it. However, they saw the red bricks for the first time and came forward to see it.


    Soon, Qin Huaiyu and the three of them each carried more than ten red bricks and went to the Nancheng building. They didn''t feel hard at all. Anyone couldn''t help praising a good man at a glance.


    "The sons of the three brothers really envy others!" Li Jing praised Qin Huaiyu as he watched them lay bricks.


    "Fooling around all day, don''t step aside!" Qin Qiong shouted to Qin Huaiyu! But he didn''t let the three go down, but retreated to one side, which can be regarded as showing his face in front of all officials.


    The three of them were immediately pardoned and quickly stepped aside. They didn''t look like dandies in the past.


    Qin Qiong looked at the lucky Qin Huaiyu three, and then looked at the Mo family talking in front of all the officials. She looked at Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong, and the three sighed in unison.


    Li Shimin picked up a red brick, looked at it and compared it with the green brick on the wall. He found that the red brick was very similar to the green brick in appearance, but the color was different. He picked up two bricks and touched them, making a crisp sound.


    "It''s so hard!" Cheng Yaojin picked up a red brick and made an effort to worship, but he didn''t break it.


    Merton couldn''t help but draw from the corner of his mouth. The red brick is still reliable in firmness. The hand splitting of bricks in later generations can only be completed through long-term practice and strength angle. It is certainly not feasible to break bricks by hand alone.


    Cheng Yaojin saw that the red bricks were strong and became angry. He directly knocked the two bricks against each other, and immediately the two red bricks became four pieces.


    Duan Lun also came forward to check. For a long time, he had to admit that red bricks are indeed harder than green bricks.


    Li Shimin nodded in his heart. Although Mohist Zi usually acted very unreliable, Mohist ink skills have never disappointed people. Since Merton took out the red brick, in fact, he has believed half of it.


    Merton proudly said, "if the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty are paved with red bricks, it only takes 2.3 million passes."


    "2.3 million yuan!"


    This number has been extremely large, but the officials not only did not feel distressed, but compared with the previous 4.6 million Guan, there was a feeling of making money in their hearts.


    People couldn''t help looking at Merton in horror. The power of ink technology was amazing. A simple red brick secret technology could save more than 2 million Guan. Moreover, after the popularity of red brick, the brick price of Datang would drop greatly, and the money saved would be more than 2 million Guan.


    "One technology destroys the country, one technology saves millions!"


    All officials sigh in their hearts, and ink technology is infinitely higher in the hearts of all people.


    Even Wei Zheng''s opposition was not so strong this time, and his heart began to waver.


    Merton secretly laughed in his heart. In fact, it''s the same as going shopping. If a thing is 50% off, even if you don''t need it very much, I''m afraid you can''t help buying it. What''s more, the benefits of building brick roads are obvious. It can save half the cost. The completion of the construction can''t help but arouse the hearts of the people.


    However, Wei Zheng was not so easy to fool. He directly caught the loophole of Mohist Zi and said: "Mohist has mastered the secret skill of red brick, so why not produce red brick paving, but buy these green brick paving at a high price."


    Li Shimin also immediately felt a pause in his heart and stared at Merton with a look of examination.


    Morton smiled bitterly and said, "brick burning is the most destructive land. There are many people in Mohist village and less land. Every time the land is extremely precious, how can it be damaged."


    Burning bricks destroyed the fields, and the reason why later generations banned burning red bricks on a large scale was to protect the good fields.


    "Besides, the construction period required by the Ministry of works is tight, and it''s too late to refine red bricks!" Merton said to himself after glancing at Duan Lun.


    Duan Lun snorted coldly and countered: "in my opinion, Lord Mo doesn''t like brick burning. Let''s wait for inferior work!"


    Which of the four wheeled carriages, steel and famous wine produced by Mojia village is not profitable? Mojia village naturally doesn''t like the low-level craft of brick burning.


    Morton smiled awkwardly and said, "brick burning consumes the most manpower. There are so many manpower in Mojia village. It''s better for Mojia to focus on its main business."


    In this era, brick burning technology depends on manpower, almost all of which are coolies. Naturally, Mojia village will not put precious manpower on brick burning.


    "Besides, once the secret skills of red brick are spread, the price of green brick will drop greatly. I don''t kill Biren, but Biren died because of me. The brick burning villages around Chang''an city are also neighbors of Mojia village, and the purchase of green brick by Mojia village is a little compensation for it," Merton said.


    "Mo boy did a good job!" Cheng Yaojin shouted.


    Merton''s move can be said to be very beautiful. Once the cheap and practical red brick is implemented, the green brick will certainly be unsalable, which must be a big blow to the villages that burn green brick for a living.


    Even the most critical Wei Zheng could not find anything wrong.


    Finally, Merton said with a bitter smile: "originally, the boy wanted to sell the red brick secret skills to brick making villages to offset the cost of green bricks, but Wei minister gave it to the imperial court. It''s natural to give up!"


    Naturally, Mojia village can''t burn bricks. It can only spread the red brick secret skills. Originally, it wanted to make a profit. Unexpectedly, it shocked the emperor and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. As a last resort, Merton had to offer the red brick secret skills and abandon the car to protect the marshal.


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help but stare and shouted, "I said your boy is crazy. He spent more than 20000 on laying brick roads. It turned out that your boy didn''t intend to pay."


    The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly realized that if the cost of the red brick secret skills and the green brick offset, the Mojia village didn''t spend much money on laying the official road in the south of the city this time.


    Looking at mojiazi one by one, they couldn''t help sighing that they can lay a road related to the lifeblood of Mojia village without spending much money. Think about it in another position. If they stand in the position of mojiazi, they must do so without hesitation.


    "Smart is mistaken by smart!" Li Shimin sneered at Merton.


    If it had not been for Merton''s green brick paving, Merton''s plan would have succeeded.

 Chapter 338

    "Black sheep?" the ministers thought about this and couldn''t help shaking their heads and laughing. Merton is smarter than anyone.


    After Merton''s gag, Li Shimin and all officials understood that Merton''s paving with green bricks seemed to be a black sheep''s behavior. But in fact, the Mohists didn''t spend so much money at all. It''s nonsense to say that the black sheep.


    It can even be said that where the black sheep, who has his shrewd abacus, is simply a white wolf with empty hands.


    "Little catfish!" Li Shimin said coldly. Merton is very slippery. How could he leave such a big flaw.


    However, after the officials laughed and scolded, they found that with the continuous reduction of laying cost, it seems not impossible to lay brick roads in Datang.


    Only the money of 2 million yuan is still a heavy mountain, which makes people flinch.


    As soon as Merton turned his mind, he immediately knew the consideration of the officials and said, "in fact, your majesty may not immediately lay an official road in the Tang Dynasty. You can follow the tax sharing system and take a place as a pilot first. Weichen believes that the official road from Chang''an city to Luoyang is the best choice."


    Chang''an City and Luoyang are the richest cities in the Tang Dynasty. There are many business trips every day, and most of the food needed by Chang''an city is transported from Luoyang. If a brick road can be built between Chang''an City and Luoyang, the effect will be immediate.


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, frowned and said, "it takes at least 320000 yuan of money between Luoyang and Chang''an. Even if the price of red brick is cheap, what about lime? I heard that when the Mohists built the official road in the south of the city, they bought the lime of the whole Chang''an city. I''m afraid it''s an expense."


    Merton shook his head and said, "what Lord Dai said is very true, but the corvee of the Tang Dynasty has just ended, and the official roads of the Tang Dynasty have been repaired and tamped, so there is no need to plough again, solidify with lime, and bricks can be laid directly. In this way, it can not only save expenses, but also be completed in the shortest time."


    The compacted soil is no worse than the soil mixed with lime. According to later records, Qinchi road is paved with rammed earth technology. The remains of Qinchi road 2000 years later are still only grass and no trees, which shows the practicability of rammed earth.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but move. Just now that the western expedition of the Tang Dynasty is imminent, it''s time to use money. 320000 Guan can''t be used easily.


    "Of course, if your majesty thinks that you spend too much money, the imperial court will come forward and exchange this red brick secret skill and brick burning factory for a certain number of bricks. In this way, it may not be enough to build the brick road of the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty, but it is estimated that it is more than enough to raise bricks from Chang''an city to Luoyang." Merton came up with an idea.


    It was Merton''s original intention to trade the red brick secret skills for bricks, but the red brick secret skills in Merton''s hands can be worth up to 50 li of official brick money. If the court comes forward, the value of the red brick secret skills will certainly double.


    Li Shimin''s heart moved and his breath stagnated. However, he shook his head firmly and said, "this red brick secret skill is beneficial to the country and the people. How can the imperial court use it for profit."


    "The emperor is wise!" all the officials shouted in unison.


    Merton looked at Li Shimin in surprise. He didn''t expect that Li Shimin could resist such temptation.


    Merton thought for a moment and then said, "in fact, there is another way that the imperial court can build a brick road from Chang''an city to Luoyang without paying a share of money."


    "Oh! Tell me?" Li Shimin suddenly became interested.


    Merton said: "the imperial court''s money can''t be used easily, but the people have a lot of idle funds. If the emperor subcontracts the brick road from Chang''an city to Luoyang City and raises funds from the people to build it, the imperial court doesn''t have to give a share of money. Just allow it and charge a toll for five years. After five years, the people will make profits, and the imperial court will get the brick road."


    "Private funds." all officials frowned.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "building official roads has always been the business of the imperial court. How can we borrow the hand of merchants."


    "Then the imperial court can issue road construction bonds with interest. Five years later, after the imperial court increases the toll and makes profits, it can return the private funds with high interest. In this way, the imperial court can build brick roads and the private can benefit." Merton came up with a compromise method.


    "Bonds?" Li Shimin wondered.


    Merton explained the principle of bonds again and said, "in this way, the imperial court can raise enough funds for construction. There is no need to move the Treasury. In the future, it only needs to collect tolls and repay the principal and interest of the people."


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. In this way, the imperial court could live in face and carry out large-scale construction, killing two birds with one stone.


    But Wei Zheng suddenly shouted angrily, "I object and collect pedestrian tolls. What''s the difference between such behavior and mountain bandit robbery."


    "I opened the mountain and planted the tree. If you want to think about this road, stay and buy the road money." Cheng Yaojin frowned, cadenced and read aloud. He couldn''t help recalling his extraordinary years when he became a bandit.


    The officials also looked at the rammed goods helplessly for a while. They were not ashamed but proud of their own experience. They couldn''t find a second one in Datang.


    "It''s a big difference!" Morton shook his head. "Mountain bandits are blocking the road and robbing. Building brick roads is for the country and the people. But the truth is the same. The imperial court spent so much money building brick roads, opening mountains, planting trees, buying bricks and maintaining them. How can we just invest without seeing the report


    It should be noted that although the brick road is hard, it is not indestructible. Is it possible that the imperial court will rebuild the road every ten years? I''m afraid even if the Tang Dynasty is rich all over the world, it can''t support such a bottomless hole.


    Wei Chen believes that when building brick roads in the future, he will collect tolls on brick roads, maintain roads with roads, and build roads at one time, which will be worry free for a hundred years. "


    "Once you build a road, you will have no worries for a hundred years!" Li Shimin suddenly brightened his eyes. Hundreds of thousands of Guan can only be used for ten years. Naturally, it will be a big loss, but once it is apportioned to a hundred years, it will be very cost-effective.


    Wei Zheng suddenly asked, "do you plan to collect tolls for profit when you build official roads in the south of the city in Mojia village?"


    Morton shook his head and said, "the boy wants to, but the boy thinks that it is most reasonable to collect a penny from a hundred miles. It''s just that the official road in the south of the city is only fifty miles. It''s really no levy."


    All officials are experts. They know that Mojia village is rich and powerful, and there are only 50 li of official roads in the south of the city. They don''t care about this toll at all. However, the imperial court is different. If the brick road is built, it will be more than ten thousand li. It is estimated that there is only one way to collect the toll.


    "Roads are owned by the public, and people have always been allowed to walk free of charge. Is it not a lot of public resentment to rashly collect tolls?" Wei Zheng still objected.


    Merton said: "Boy, let''s make an account for you. If the imperial court collects one Wen for every hundred Li, that is, eight Wen for every 800 Li, building a brick road can more than double the travel time between Chang''an City and Luoyang City. The saved car and horse consumption is more than eight Wen. Plus the saved time, we will be able to earn more money. Everyone has a steelyard in mind. Is it beneficial How can you not know? "


    After Merton''s calculation, let alone the official road from Chang''an city to Luoyang, if you want to lay a brick road, you don''t have to spend a penny by the imperial court, and you can get a brick road in vain after paying off the bonds in five years.


    Wei Zheng also figured out the accounts, so he stopped. Although he spoke frankly, he could afford to put it down.


    The Mohist School''s skill of covering the white wolf with empty hands is amazing. "All officials lamented that they had prepared the white wolf with red gloves and paid the bill with the secret skill of red brick. As soon as they turned around, they repeated their old skill to cover the white wolf with empty hands for the imperial court and set up an 800 mile brick road.


    Li Shimin and all the officials were awed, and each one looked at Merton with inexplicable eyes.


    Seeing this, Merton quickly showed a shy and shy smile, looking like a child and an old man.

 Chapter 339

    Wei Zheng suddenly moved in his heart, suddenly turned around and looked at Merton. His eyes were fierce and said, "I''m afraid nephew Mo has been counted to this moment when he was building a brick road!"


    All officials suddenly realized that mojiazi first attracted Li Shimin and all officials with brick roads, and then conceived a method that was conducive to the imperial court. If it was said that mojiazi had no premeditation, no one would believe it.


    Merton nodded generously and said, "when Wei Chen conceived the brick road, he wanted to play the matter to his majesty, but he had nothing to say. In addition, the cost of building the brick road was too much, I''m afraid it would be difficult to implement it. As a last resort, the boy had to take the opportunity of corvee to build a 50 mile brick road first and prove the benefits of the brick road with facts."


    Li Shimin could not help nodding. If Merton had written to the court and spent hundreds of thousands of yuan to build roads, it would certainly become a joke in front of all officials and the biggest laughing stock of Chang''an City, and it would not be possible to implement it.


    However, at the moment, the benefits of brick road are clearly in front of everyone, and its feasibility is fully demonstrated. All officials have no conflict with the construction of brick road.


    Wei Zheng said with a bitter smile, "it''s my duty to persuade the emperor. I''ve heard of written advice, face-to-face advice, even military advice and death advice. Today, I''m an eye opener. I saw the unprecedented money advice."


    "Qian Jian!"


    All officials could not help shaking their heads and laughing when they heard this word.


    Isn''t that right? Merton wanted to persuade the imperial court to build brick roads. As a result, he spent more than 20000 to repair a section first. What''s not Qian Jian?


    Morton was embarrassed and said, "boy, these words were originally prepared for a period of time. When the effect of brick road came out, they were written to the imperial court, but they didn''t want to be told today."


    Fang Xuanling appreciated: "nephew Mo, such a thing that benefits the country and the people is naturally carried out as soon as possible."


    As the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, he can naturally see that brick roads are too good for the Tang Dynasty.


    "With only one idea, you can directly spend 20000 yuan. You are so sure that you can convince me and all officials." Li Shimin asked.


    Merton was silent and said, "in fact, it is not the boy who persuaded the emperor, but the general trend to build brick roads."


    "The general trend?" Li Shimin frowned slightly, puzzled.


    "Although the rammed earth official road is cheap, it is not resistant to wear and tear, and it is difficult to bear the huge load of four-wheel carriages. If the brick road is not built, the wear of the brick road will be more serious next year, and the corvee will certainly be more heavy next year.


    The second is rainy weather. Rammed earth officials are most afraid of rainy weather. Once it rains, business travel will be cut off and goods will be stranded. If it is good for goods that can withstand release, if they are fresh-keeping things such as melons and fruits, they will lose their money. Even the documents of the imperial court may be cut off for more than a month. It can be said that a brick road is needed from the imperial court to the people. "


    The third is that the emergence of Horseshoes prevents horseshoes from being worn by brick roads. It can be said that the time to build brick roads is ripe. Even if there is no boy today, you adults will take the initiative to build brick roads next year. "


    "The time is ripe for construction,


    When Merton finished, all officials immediately nodded. It is really necessary to build brick roads, whether from strategic needs or practical interests.


    Of course, after the construction of the brick road, the Mohist village will benefit the most. At that time, the goods of the Mohist will certainly be sold in the Tang Dynasty, and the pillar four-wheel carriage of the Mohist will certainly make a qualitative leap. However, in terms of the income of the Mohist village and the whole Tang Dynasty, it is a drop in the bucket. Moreover, the Mohist village does not pay nothing. The Mohist gives its red brick secret skills and various road construction techniques Enough to satisfy chaotang.


    "What do you think of Aiqing?" Li Shimin asked the officials.


    So far, we have not discussed whether to build brick roads, but how to build and how long to build them.


    Although the one-time investment is huge and the effect is amazing, together with the road maintenance fee, it can be used for at least a hundred years. Li Shimin and all officials have long been persuaded by this temptation.


    "Please obey the emperor''s orders." all the officials said in unison.


    The benefits of building brick roads are obvious. At this point, all officials naturally no longer object, and even Wei Zheng remained silent.


    Li Shimin nodded and said in a loud voice, "in that case, take Chang''an City as the midpoint, east to Luoyang and west to Longyou, and lay brick roads along the East and West lines at the same time."


    Morton was shocked. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was so bold that he directly laid the two lines at the same time.


    Chang''an to Luoyang is a prosperous area. As long as the construction effect is sure to be immediate, Chang''an city to Longyou is to ensure the victory of the war against Tuyuhun.


    "Your Majesty is wise." a group of generals said excitedly. If there is such a brick road as the logistics line and the battle of Tuyuhun, Datang will have no future trouble.


    Li Shimin continued to order: "the Ministry of civil affairs is preparing to issue road construction bonds, the Ministry of works is mapping roads, preparing to recruit migrant workers and build brick roads."


    Li Shimin was so excited that the brick road must be no worse than the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal Project. Although Yang Guang was scolded as a tyrant by later generations, no one can deny the achievements of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal. At the moment, Li Shimin can build a political achievement comparable to the Grand Canal, and the cost is not much. Isn''t it better than Mohist


    "Recruit and issue migrant workers?" Wei Zheng said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, think twice. The people''s corvee service has just ended. If you want to recruit and issue corvee again, it will certainly arouse people''s resentment!"


    Li Shimin looked excited and hesitated.


    Duan Lun, the Minister of industry, immediately catered to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, building brick roads is to collect corvee from nearby villages. As Lord Mo said, it will not be far away from home. What''s the grievance of the people? Besides, it''s not to let these people work in vain. All the people who work in corvee will be exempted from corvee next year."


    Duan Lun''s words should not be nodded immediately. In this way, it is also a solution.


    Li Shimin was about to nod his head and answer, but he heard Merton say in a loud voice: "the time of corvee service every year is the regulation of the Empire. How can it be changed easily? It is a taboo to levy corvee for the coming year."


    A bald head in later generations is best at this move. He collects taxes in advance, and some even collect taxes for 20 years in advance, which has caused huge public resentment. Merton doesn''t want to set a bad precedent in Datang.


    "Living beyond their means." Li Shimin and his officials suddenly looked ugly. Although they heard the word for the first time, they immediately understood its meaning.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "collecting corvee for the coming year is absolutely impossible."


    Corvee can not be easily collected and issued. The lesson of emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty is not far away. Of course, Li Shimin is very alert.


    Duan Lun was unhappy. His idea catered to Li Shimin very much. If there was no accident, he must have been adopted by Li Shimin. However, he was destroyed by Merton and embarrassed him in front of Li Shimin.


    "What should I do with the intention of Lord mo." Duan Lun''s tone was not good.


    But Merton didn''t take it seriously and said, "the people are dissatisfied with the corvee, because the corvee is for nothing. If the imperial court hires the people from both official ways, pays them wages by day, builds roads by the imperial court, and the people make profits, wouldn''t it be the best of both worlds?"


    Duan Lun sneered, "do you know how much more the court will spend?"


    Merton proudly said, "the problems that can be solved with money are not problems."


    Li Shimin and other officials couldn''t help but look sideways. Merton''s words were overbearing and reasonable.


    "Of course, this money will also be collected from the toll in the future," Merton quickly explained.


    Dai Zhou could not help but bow his head and smile bitterly. In this way, the bonds issued must have increased again.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath: "the three provinces and six ministries will make a plan for the construction of brick roads, which will be discussed by the imperial court in three days."


    "Yes!" the officials replied.


    However, everyone knew that if there was no accident, they would come according to the plan of Mohist Zi.


    "Congratulations to the emperor!"


    After Li Shimin and all the officials left, Merton invited Xu Jie.


    "Have all the brick money of HeJiazhuang and others been settled?" Merton asked.


    Xu Jie''s face suddenly showed a trace of excitement and said: "don''t worry, all villages agreed to use the red brick secret skills to offset part of the brick money. In addition, all villages also purchased tools specially made for firing red bricks in Mojia village. This time, Mojia village almost didn''t have to pay for building brick roads."


    With his strong sales ability, Xu Jie can sell the red brick secret skills to 20000, and he is naturally very proud in his heart.


    "I have given the red brick secret skill to the imperial court and promoted it to the world for free. Later, you will hand over the brick money to each village." Merton will give the red brick secret skill. The imperial court decided to build a brick road.


    Although Xu Jie understood, he was still unwilling to say: "dongweng is dedicated to the country, but Mojia village pays 20000 more. Is this price too heavy?"


    Twenty thousand Guan is not a small sum of money, and it is all cash. There are not a few people in Chang''an city worth twenty thousand Guan, but I''m afraid few people can take out ten thousand Guan money.


    Even if the brick road is built, the sales of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village have increased greatly, but it is still not easy to earn 20000 yuan.


    Merton laughed at the speech and said: "Mr. Xu, compared with the brick roads built by the imperial court, what is the 20000 yuan spent by the Mohist school? Even if the imperial court spends 2 million yuan to connect the ten brick roads in the Tang Dynasty, then there will be no brick roads between counties, townships and villages in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the money needed by the Tang Dynasty will be more than 100 million yuan!"


    "One hundred million!" Xu Jie suddenly opened his eyes and tongue tied.


    Merton looked at Xu Jie and said with a mysterious smile, "even if the court builds all roads into brick roads, who knows that there will be a road ten times better than brick roads?"


    Xu Jie was suddenly surprised. I''m afraid that at that time, Datang will set off a new round of road construction.


    "How can we support such a large project by digging in the land alone? The more money the imperial court needs, the more attention it will pay to businessmen who can create profits and pay taxes. The status of scholars, farmers, industry and Commerce will be rewritten from now on. The more money the imperial court is short of, the higher the status of businessmen will be. The road to the rise of industry and Commerce will begin with the brick road under our feet."


    Merton''s tone was plain, but his words showed his ambition to shock the world.


    Xu Jie was in a trance. He couldn''t help recalling that after he was drunk, he asked Merton how to improve the status of businessmen. At the moment, Merton proved to him that changing the status of businessmen was not impossible and within reach.


    "Dongweng Yingming!" Xu Jie was deeply impressed.

 Chapter 340

    Outside Nancheng, the new site of ink technology exhibition.


    Since the Mohist ink technology exhibition was moved to the Mohist experimental field outside Nancheng, it has almost become the headquarters of Mohist village in Chang''an city. Pieces of Mohist ink technology are displayed here for the people of Chang''an city to visit. It is usually overcrowded on the day of ten days off.


    From now on, ink technology exhibition will add a new ink technology, red brick secret technology.


    "Red brick!"


    Villa leader he was puzzled. He watched a group of Mohist children lay red bricks on the ground inside and outside the ink exhibition.


    Step on the red brick road and feel the hardness from the ground. Who can imagine that the cost of this brick is half that of the green brick.


    The profit of brick burning is low, which makes some hard money, and the land is everywhere. There are many brick burning villages around Chang''an City, which have always been highly competitive. It is unprecedented to buy Bricks with such a large amount of money as Mojia village.


    If there is a red brick whose price is only half and whose performance is not inferior to that of the green brick, it will be a top-down blow to other villages. Therefore, when the Mojia village proposed to use the red brick secret technique to offset the brick money, all villages agreed without hesitation.


    Just as they were about to sign the document, shopkeeper Xu was suddenly invited by Mohist, and they had to wait here.


    Fortunately, Xu Jie didn''t keep everyone waiting. When he returned again, they didn''t know if it was the illusion of everyone. They found that Xu Jie had a different temperament and should be more confident.


    "Keep you waiting!"


    Xu Jie regained his calm and bowed to the villa leader.


    "Where, where, shopkeeper Xu, you''re welcome," the villa leaders quickly replied.


    This time, the big stroke of Mojia village can be described as stunning everyone. It directly wrapped all their bricks. Where can such a rich guest be found and let everyone see the strength of Mojia village? Even if they are dissatisfied, they can''t show it.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, since we have agreed to use the secret skills of Mohism to offset the brick fee, please teach us the secret skills of red brick!" said villa leader he.


    When Xu Jie heard the speech, he immediately said with a loud smile, "don''t worry. The owner called Xu over because of this. Here, Xu has a good news to share with you."


    "Good news!" he said with a bitter smile, "shopkeeper Xu! Don''t have the good news you said like red brick secret skills. Our village has a poor family background and can''t afford to toss like this again."


    The village leaders also nodded again and again. The red brick secret skill is the lifeblood of their village. Only then did they have to accept the request of Mohist village to offset the brick fee. If there were any more secret skills, they would be really unbearable.


    Xu Jie smiled and said, "don''t worry. The good news this time is very beneficial to you. The red brick secret technology owner has dedicated it to the imperial court. It will be implemented all over the world in a few days. You can use it for free."


    As soon as Xu Jie''s voice fell, everyone was suddenly stunned.


    "Seriously?" they asked incredulously.


    Xu Jie solemnly nodded, and everyone believed it.


    "Lord Mo is really magnificent." the villa leaders were very happy at that time. The red brick secret skill can be said to control the lifeblood of every brick factory, but the Mexican family even promoted it directly to the world and let them use it for free. How can they not be happy.


    "What about the brick money?" villa leader he asked.


    You should know that so many bricks are not a small number. As soon as the voice of villa leader he fell, everyone immediately stared at Xu Jie.


    Xu Jie said, "your brick money will naturally be presented together after you send someone to Mojia village to learn the secret skills of red brick."


    "Thank you, Lord Mo!"


    The villa leaders immediately shed tears of gratitude.


    "At that time, he was blinded by lard and wrongly blamed the Mohist village. Please tell Lord Mohist an apology for me." villa leader he was ashamed.


    At the beginning, he spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain and sued Mojia village together with other villages. However, at present, Mojia village returns good for evil and even discloses the red brick secret skills for free use in Hejia village. Why are the two villages so different.


    Others may feel at ease to use the red brick secret skills, but he Jiazhuang is not qualified to feel at ease.


    Xu Jie looked at Villa leader he, paused and said, "villa leader he is worried too much. What the Marquis is worried about is related to the world. Since he promised to build the road, it naturally has the young master''s consideration. Can you force it?"


    Other villa leaders could not help nodding. Lord mohou not only agreed to build roads, but also built brick roads that shocked the Tang Dynasty. This was not forced by he Jiazhuang.


    Xu Jie suddenly changed his tone, "Yes, since the Marquis doesn''t care about it, we naturally don''t say anything. But Xu advised you that the Marquis is kind-hearted and doesn''t want to care about it with you. It''s not impossible. You can think about it. If the Mojia village strictly keeps the secret skills of red bricks and burns bricks by yourself, let alone your Hejia village, I''m afraid even the villages in the south of the city can''t be spared."


    Suddenly, villa leader he was in a cold sweat and secretly called for luck. If the Mohist village wanted to revenge HeJiazhuang and burn red bricks for sale, one was high-quality and cheap red bricks and the other was expensive green bricks, the people naturally knew which to choose. At that time, each village was only about closing brick kilns.


    Without the livelihood of burning bricks, I''m afraid the villages will be in trouble immediately.


    "Let''s remember!" the crowd immediately said in fear.


    Xu Jie has been in the shopping mall for a long time, and naturally has many means. Under the beating of both hard and soft, he immediately took the people''s clothes away.


    Merton''s red brick secret skills not only shocked the people in HeJiazhuang, but also frightened Su Luosheng, the magistrate of Chang''an County.


    "Lord Mo, I''m so scared!" Su Luosheng said with a wry smile as he stepped on the clean and tidy brick road.


    If time goes back, Su Luosheng will certainly not agree to build roads in Mojia village. It is a twists and turns for Merton to build an official road, and he is even more worried.


    I didn''t expect to have thousands of defenses, but I didn''t go to Mojia village to come up with such a shocking idea as brick road. After the news of black brick paving in Mojia village came, Su Luosheng stayed there as if he heard a thunderbolt for a long time.


    Although Merton defused the crisis as skillfully as a tongue spring, Su Luosheng didn''t want to go through such a stimulating process again.


    "Don''t worry, county Lord. If Mojia village makes another move in the future, it will report to county Lord in advance." Merton apologized.


    This time, in order to keep it a secret, Merton hid it from everyone, and he was really sorry for suluosheng.


    "I hope so!"


    Suluosheng glanced at Merton, immediately accepted his fate and sighed helplessly,


    Morton saw this, ha ha and said with a smile, "Lord Xian Zun only saw the cost of brick road, but didn''t see the benefits brought by brick road?"


    "Why did Lord Mo say that!"


    Suluosheng couldn''t help but wonder and looked at him.


    "Xian Zun doesn''t know yet. At the moment, the land on both sides of the brick road has been sold within five miles of Chang''an City, and more than half has been sold within ten miles." Merton broke another amazing news.


    "Who will buy these lands!" suloshen said in horror.


    Merton said with a smile, "of course, it''s the merchants in the East and West markets."


    Su Luosheng suddenly realized that the house prices in Chang''an City were rising continuously. Merchants in the East and West cities usually need to store a lot of goods. Naturally, the warehouse needed is very large, and the rent alone is not a small amount.


    At the moment, all the official roads in the south of the city are paved with brick roads, with convenient transportation. It is far from Chang''an City, and it is also the direction to Mojia village. Many merchants are keenly aware of this and have sold their homes on both sides of the official road. In the future, whether it is building a warehouse or moving here, the rent alone will be enough to leave a lot of money.


    Su Luosheng was shocked and blurted out: "if you want to be rich, build roads first."


    Merton nodded. He didn''t expect the effect to be immediate.


    The brick road in the south of the city has become a cornucopia of Chang''an city. Villages and towns along the way just sell land and earn a lot.

 Chapter 341

    "If you want to be rich, build roads first!" suluosheng thought.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, not to mention anything else, the price of land within ten miles on both sides of the official road in the south of the city will not be doubled."


    Apart from others, the villages on both sides of the transfer road earn a lot just by selling land. Isn''t the premium wealth brought by brick roads?


    Su Luosheng looked at the brick road under his feet and said in his heart, "I believe it is impossible not to predict today with the eyes of Lord Mojia. Isn''t there some land in Mojia village?"


    According to suluosheng''s idea, since Merton knew that the land on both sides of the brick road would rise in price, wouldn''t he start early and make a lot of money? Maybe even the road construction money could be earned back.


    Merton was shocked. He didn''t expect that Su Luosheng had such advanced ideas and coincided with an oil tycoon in later generations.


    "Xian Zun is wise. Mojia village has indeed bought several pieces of land before this, but they are all bought at double the market price. Mojia won''t make such money. Mojia is just trying to seize some important places." Merton said.


    In this era of paying most attention to reputation, if the Mohists take the opportunity to make a lot of money and let the villages on both sides of the brick road in the south of the city suffer losses, I''m afraid they will lose their reputation. In addition, the land on both sides of the brick road can only be used for industrial land, and the increased value is not large. There is no need to lose the reputation of the Mohist village. It''s better to win-win with the villages in the south of the city, At the same time, lead the land price on both sides of the brick road.


    Su Luosheng nodded with satisfaction. If someone else had changed, he would not have been able to resist such temptation, but the Mohist school was indeed the Mohist school. It was convincing to say so.


    Su Luosheng and Merton visited the first industrial transfer of Chang''an City together. Many anxious merchants on both sides of the brick road have begun to level the land and occupy the site.


    "Lord County, I don''t know whether to mention the next suggestion!" said Merton.


    Su Luosheng hurriedly said, "it''s certainly a big deal to ask Lord Mo to take the initiative to put forward his suggestions. I''m eager to hear it."


    Merton thought a little and said, "I often wander in the East and West cities. Many merchants in the East and West cities can make noise and smell. The surrounding merchants can''t bear the disturbance, and even pile up a lot of inflammables. I think merchants like this may not be suitable to settle in Chang''an City."


    Chang''an city is the economic center of the Tang Dynasty. There are not a few things like chemicals in the East and West, such as the place where mercury is refined in the back street of xuandu temple, the iron shop in the east city, the sound of beating iron doesn''t go out in the middle of the night, and even some inflammable things are piled up wantonly. Merton is frightened.


    Su Luosheng frowned slightly and said, "Lord Mo''s intention is to move all these merchants out of Chang''an City?"


    If so, Merton seems to have some public and private revenge, taking the opportunity to attack his competitors.


    Merton quickly waved his hand and said, "I have absolutely no selfishness. Most of the fires in Chang''an city are wooden structures, and inflammables are stacked wantonly. There are even many fires that don''t go out all year round. In case of a fire, the consequences are unimaginable. I''m afraid most of the fires in Chang''an City over the years come from this.


    Su Luosheng nodded heavily. During his term of office, most of the fires in Chang''an City occurred in East and West cities.


    "At the same time, these fires burn and smelt year after year, and the smell is soaring. According to the investigation of doctors, after the human body breathes the smell, it mostly occurs in lung diseases. It is also for the health of the people to move such merchants out of Chang''an City," Morton said.


    "And it is said that empress Chang sun often suffers from Qi diseases, and the fresh air is conducive to the recovery of the empress''s body." Merton finally mentioned suluosheng.


    Suluosheng''s eyes brightened. No matter how much Merton said before, there was no last sentence. At present, he said without hesitation: "what Lord Murdoch said is that stacking inflammables and burning smelting in Chang''an city is indeed very harmful. I will ask the emperor to move such merchants out of Chang''an City as soon as possible and give the people a healthy air."


    This will not only solve the fire hazards in Chang''an City, but also please the emperor and queen. As long as Su Luosheng is not stupid, he naturally knows what to do.


    Suluosheng looked at Merton and said thoughtfully, "what if we don''t move all of them to the official road in the south of the city?"


    Since Merton gave him such a big gift, he naturally wanted to repay his kindness and increase the influence of officials in the south of the city again.


    When Morton heard the speech, he was immediately wronged and said, "Mo was kind enough to help County Lord Zun. Why did County Lord Zun hurt me?"


    Su Luosheng was stunned when he heard the speech and said, "why did Lord Mo say this? The official road in the south of the city has convenient transportation. It is actually the best place for merchants to choose a site. Why do you harm Lord Mo?"


    Merton said wrongfully, "the reason for moving these merchants out of Chang''an city is to clean the air in Chang''an city. Why did the county Reverend move these toxic gases to the direction of Mojia village."


    Su Luosheng suddenly realized that the original Mohist school did not want to gather these industries and increase the wealth effect of Chengnan officials, but wanted to drive these industries out of Chengnan officials.


    Merton was also helpless. After the brick road was opened, many such merchants bought land on the official road in the south of the city. He didn''t want to stand up with chimneys all the way from Chang''an city to Mojia village. Black smoke covered the sky, bare mountains and smelly water. It was a dilapidated place. He had to ask Su Luosheng a few words, but he didn''t expect it to have a negative effect.


    "Lord Yimo means..." suluosheng respectfully asked for advice.


    Merton pointed to the yellow leaves scattered with the northeast wind and said, "the northeast wind prevails in Chang''an city all year round, so in order to endanger Chang''an city with toxic gases, Mo believes that it is better to take the northwest and Southeast, followed by the south."


    Suluosheng secretly sighed that everyone was used to the common problem of wind direction, and the MOH family used it here.


    Merton continued: "however, most incineration and smelting also need water sources to discharge some sewage, and the rivers in Chang''an city run from east to west. Therefore, in order not to let these wastewater harm the water source of the imperial capital, there is only one place suitable."


    "Southeast!" suluosheng took a deep breath and nodded.


    Merton nodded.


    "But there is no brick road in the southeast, how can these merchants be willing to go." Su Luosheng thought.


    "Wutong," he laughed confidently, "if the county respected the adults to repair a brick road leading to the southeast of Changan, how could these merchants be unwilling? This is the building of Phoenix.


    Suluosheng said angrily, "it took you 20000 yuan to build a 50 mile brick road in Mojia village. Do you think Chang''an County government can have so much money to build a road?"


    Morton shook his head and said with a smile, "how did the county Lord hold the golden rice bowl crying for poverty and sit on the mountain empty without knowing."


    "I don''t know when I sit on the mountain?" suluosheng opened his eyes and looked at Merton puzzled.


    "The county Lord has a lot of public fields in his hands!" said Merton.


    Su Luosheng nodded. The equal field system is the public ownership of land. The land allocated to the people is generally divided into public field and Yongye field. Yongye field is privately owned by the people. After the death of Gongtian Dinghu, the land needs to be returned to the imperial court. In addition, the county government also has many public fields for public use.


    "It''s not killing two birds with one stone to divide the county government''s public land in the southeast and resell it to merchants at the price on both sides of the official road in the south of the city. Use the land sales money to build brick roads," Morton suggested.


    Su Luosheng''s eyes brightened and murmured, "buy the public land to such merchants. Those who sell land for money build roads?"


    Merton nodded: "Moumou calls it the industrial park plan."

 Chapter 342

    "Industrial park!" suluosheng''s eyes brightened, savored this sentence carefully, and became more and more excited.


    In this way, an industrial park has been specially opened to accommodate such merchants, which can not only sell land to them, but also make proper arrangements for such merchants. After all, although these industries are very harmful, Chang''an City has a wide demand for them, which is inseparable from these merchants.


    Merton continued: "with the industrial park, the county Lord can raise enough money to build roads and solve the hidden dangers of Chang''an city. Isn''t it killing two birds with one stone?"


    Su Luosheng said proudly, "in this way, do the merchants in the East and West cities have any opinions?"


    Most of the merchants who can open stores in the East and West cities of Chang''an City have background behind them. If they encounter hard stubble, I''m afraid it''s not good.


    Merton sneered: "this is for the safety of the whole Chang''an city. What is it if an individual is dissatisfied? Besides, these merchants don''t necessarily suffer losses in this matter!"


    "Please master Mo to teach me!" asked suluosheng respectfully at the moment.


    "Obviously, the land price of Chang''an city is high and the land price of industrial parks is low. Once the land price of merchants and industrial parks in the East and West cities is replaced, merchants can not only place several times the size of factories out of thin air, but also save a lot of money," Morton said.


    "Of course, there must be some discontent. After all, where can the industrial park be as comfortable as Chang''an City? If the county Lord can reduce or exempt some taxes for merchants who take the initiative to move to the industrial park, stay with a team of captors in the industrial park all year round to ensure their safety, and then set up a bus to and from Chang''an City and the industrial park, it will be able to carry out the matter smoothly." Merton''s light words suddenly opened sullosen''s eyes.


    "All right!" Sullivan flushed with excitement.


    In this way, he has explained all aspects, and more importantly, he has obtained his political achievements.


    Compared with the money from land sales, the tax exemption and the money spent by captains on setting up bus routes are a drop in the bucket.


    "Lord Mo seems to have a special liking for merchants!" Suluo pointed out.


    Merton paused slightly and said without hesitation: "the Mohist School advocates universal love and non aggression. As long as the people of the Tang Dynasty abide by the law and discipline, the Mohist school will treat them equally."


    "Lord Mo''s words are reasonable. As long as it is the people of the Tang Dynasty, our parents and officials should naturally be considerate!" suluosheng laughed and avoided the topic.


    "It''s a blessing for the people to have Lord Su in Chang''an." Merton said.


    Although Su Luosheng can not get rid of the bureaucratic brand of this era, he can change and be flexible. It is really rare that he is willing to make some changes in order to pursue political achievements.


    "Another day, I will ask Lord Mo to help me with the emperor''s road construction." Su Luosheng laughed.


    For Su Luosheng, the most important thing is that he can make a profit. Once this matter is successful, Chang''an County Government will certainly have so much wealth and can do too many things.


    "That''s natural, but since you can build brick roads to the industrial park, I wonder if you can also pave the roads in Chang''an city with brick roads. Chang''an city is the imperial capital. How can you pave brick roads outside the city, but dirt roads are everywhere in the imperial capital. If you pave all the streets in Chang''an city with brick roads, I believe the county magistrate will surely leave a strong impression on the annals of Chang''an County "Pen." Merton smiled at the corner of his mouth and recommended the common municipal image project to suloshen.


    "All the streets are paved with bricks!" said Sullivan in shock.


    Merton nodded and said, "Chang''an city is the imperial capital and represents the image of the Tang Dynasty. It can especially serve as an example of cities in the world. At the same time, it also prevents people from telling the truth. It is unfair to think that the county respects the merchants. If adults use the money bought by merchants to build roads for the people of Chang''an City, everyone will have nothing to say."


    Suluosheng immediately took a breath. What Merton said is indeed reasonable, but in this way, Chang''an County Yamen needs to spend more money.


    "Lord Mo drew such a big pie for me!" Su Luosheng said with a bitter smile.


    At present, there are 12 cross streets and 9 vertical streets in Chang''an city. Except Zhuque street, only a few streets are paved with bluestone slabs, and the others are dirt roads. If all roads are paved with brick roads, the cost will go to the sea. Of course, once this move is successful, Su Luosheng''s political achievements will go to another level.


    Merton smiled and said, "Chang''an city is the imperial capital. Naturally, we should set an example for the city of the world."


    He doesn''t worry that Su Luosheng won''t take the bait. Chang''an City and Luoyang City are competitive. If Su Luosheng slows down, he will be preempted by Luoyang city with more abundant financial resources. In order to crush Luoyang, Su Luosheng will not let go of such a wonderful idea.


    "Besides, I''m afraid you can''t use up the money from selling land in the industrial park. It''s just used to build brick roads in the city. Isn''t it the best of both worlds?" Merton said. Although the money spent on building brick roads is a lot, it is not suluosheng''s own money. It is the money earned from selling land. I believe suluosheng will certainly make a wise choice.


    Suluosheng did not hesitate for long, nodded and agreed with Merton''s suggestion. Just as he could build all the official roads in Chang''an city into brick roads, he would certainly gain greater praise than the bus carriage. The dignitaries and officials of the bus carriage did not ride, but they could not walk on the brick road?


    Morton sighed in his heart. He didn''t know whether it was right for him to take the lead in opening the land sales mode of the county government in the Tang Dynasty. However, in order to change the status of businessmen, the government must continue to spend money and rely on commercial taxes. What''s more, brick roads need to be built in Chang''an city. All cities can''t refuse the temptation of hardened roads, and the imperial court is high, The real decision to the status of businessmen is these local powerful officials.


    In the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty, Merton still believed in Li Shimin''s vision and level.


    Su Luosheng suddenly found that the brick road he was going to build was almost several times that of the fifty mile official road built by mojiazi. He couldn''t help but feel empty. When more than a dozen villages in the south of the city jointly sued Mojia village a month ago, Su Luosheng secretly helped the fire.


    Now Feng Shui turns around, and it''s his turn to build roads continuously.


    "This can''t be the means of the Mohist school!" suluosheng said in his heart. He remembered that mojiazi mentioned these suggestions for no reason, which made him unable to tempt, and there was more doubt in his heart.


    Looking at the young Mo family, Su Luosheng smiled bitterly in his heart. No matter whether the Mo family is intentional or unintentional, no one will despise the Mo family any more with these irresistible suggestions.

 Chapter 343

    Da Chao Hui.


    "Inform your majesty! After continuous calculation and measurement, the brick road to be built by the Ministry of work needs to be at least 2300 Li." Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of work, said.


    "Two thousand five hundred miles." the ministers could not help but smack their tongue.


    Two thousand five hundred miles, even if the red brick secret technique is used, it will cost at least 500000 yuan. I''m afraid this much money is the most expensive project since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.


    At the moment, none of the courtiers proposed to shorten the official path, because either of the two brick roads was the lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty. One is the most prosperous area in the Tang Dynasty. As long as it is repaired, there is no reason to lose money. The other is the road section that is firmly determined to lose money, but it can greatly strengthen the rule of the Tang Dynasty over the northwest and add a few chances of winning the battle of Tuyuhun. Both brick roads take Chang''an City as the starting point. In fact, it is not too much to say that they are a brick road.


    "Dai Aiqing! How much money can the Ministry of Civil Affairs raise!" Li Shimin asked Dai Zhou.


    Dai Zhou said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, today the people have a bumper harvest and the Treasury is sufficient. The Ministry of civil affairs can give 100000 more money. I''m afraid the bonds to be issued will be at least 400000."


    "Four hundred thousand Guan!" all the officials suddenly sank in their hearts. There are so many places where the Tang Dynasty needs money. Four hundred thousand Guan is enough to do a lot of things, but now it is only used to build two brick roads.


    Li Shimin''s heart and hair turned black. This is just a road that Datang needs to build. Think about the ten roads that Datang needs to connect in the future. I''m afraid the money spent in the future will be gone.


    "Your Majesty, building brick roads has many advantages. Please don''t go step by step. The lesson of the grand canal can''t be repeated in the Tang Dynasty." Wei Zheng advised.


    Li Shimin nodded deeply. He had never agreed with Wei Zheng''s advice so much.


    "Dai Aiqing, it''s up to the Ministry of civil affairs to issue bonds," Li Shimin said.


    Dai Zhou nodded: "Weichen divides this bond into four grades from one year to four years, with 100000 bonds each year. The bond interest in one year is low, and the Ministry of civil affairs will repay its principal and interest after one year. By analogy, the bond interest in four years is high, but the principal and interest need to be repaid after four years. In this way, the amount of money that the Ministry of civil affairs needs to repay each year is controlled at about 100000 bonds, which will not increase the financial burden, and the people can Profit. "


    Compared with the ten-year long-term bonds of later generations, Dai Zhou''s pace is extremely cautious.


    Li Shimin and other officials breathed a sigh of relief. The annual repayment of 100000 yuan is a huge figure for ordinary people, but it is not difficult for the imperial court.


    Bonds gather a lot of wealth in a short time, so that the imperial court can achieve great things and control the repayment period. In this way, the imperial court has set up large-scale projects, and the people can also make profits.


    "Bonds are indeed a good means." man Chao Wenwu nodded in his heart.


    More importantly, the construction of brick roads is not a bottomless hole with no return. The continuous toll in the future is also a major source of income, which is why Merton preferred brick roads as the beginning of the construction of the Tang Dynasty.


    The problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. This sentence comes out of Merton''s mouth. Although it is a little arrogant, it is true for a country. If ordinary people are allowed to perform corvee for nothing, even if they work one more day, they will naturally be full of complaints. However, if they pay wages, they will work year after year, and no one will have any resentment.


    After the money problem was solved, Li Shimin once again turned his eyes to Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, and said, "Duan Aiqing, whether the red brick secret skills Mohist school has given as promised."


    Duan Lun went out and said, "back to the emperor, mojiazi had made all the red brick secret skills public the next day. Now the brick factories around Chang''an City have been transformed into red bricks, which will not delay the road construction."


    Merchants have the most sensitive news. The news that the imperial court is preparing to build brick roads has long been spread from Chang''an city. How can merchants miss such a wealth feast? Without waiting for discussion in Mojia village, there are an endless stream of learning red brick secrets from Mojia village these days. Just buying brick making equipment is soft, which can also recover less than half of the cost of building brick roads in the south of the city.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Merton is slippery, but he is very trustworthy to open his secret skills. From the original live fish secret skills to artificial breeding technology, to the current red brick secret skills, even if he makes a lot of money, he doesn''t hesitate to open it.


    Now there are chickens, ducks, geese and live fish all over Chang''an city. It''s not due to the Mohist school.


    With the red brick secret skill, bonds will be issued soon and money will be obtained soon. The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty was relieved. Soon, the three provinces and six ministries passed the decision to build brick roads.


    "Duan Aiqing, this matter has been handed over to the Ministry of work. We must build a brick road to Longyou by next April." Li Shimin said.


    As Merton said, April is the busiest season in all parts of the grassland. This is the weakest time in the grassland and the best time for the Tang Dynasty to defeat Tuyuhun. Sure enough, Li Shimin chose to start the war at this moment.


    "Yes, sir!" Duan Lun nodded.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "this matter has been decided. Please discuss the matter that Chang''an County Magistrate asked Chang''an city to lay brick roads."


    "Chang''an city is paved with brick roads!" all officials immediately exclaimed.


    Dai Zhou quickly got up and objected: "tell your majesty that Chang''an city is the capital of the emperor. There is nothing wrong with laying brick roads, but the imperial court needs to issue bonds to build two official roads. Where can I have money to lay brick roads in the city?"


    Many courtiers nodded slowly. Although it was good for them to lay brick roads in Chang''an City, the imperial court really had no spare money at the moment.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "what if you don''t have to spend money by the imperial court?"


    All the officials in the Manchu Dynasty looked at Li Shimin puzzled.


    With a big hand, Li Shimin handed the memorial presented by Su Luosheng, the magistrate of Chang''an County, to a group of officials for reading.


    "Industrial park plan."


    At the first glance, all officials suddenly realized that they were not familiar with such a situation, such as strange names, ideas with big brain holes, and typical means of covering white wolves with empty hands.


    "MOH family!" many people said secretly.


    "Set up a special park for merchants, sell land, build roads, set up public transportation and set up a squad of captains." when the officials saw that the magistrate of Chang''an County had such means, they could not help but frown. This was too preferential to merchants.


    "It''s a great good thing that the merchants have more factories. Chang''an city can not only solve the potential fire hazards, but also have more money to lay brick roads." without the opposition of all officials, Chang sun Wuji was the first to get up and agree.


    Many officials were immediately puzzled, but when they saw that the purpose of setting up the industrial park was to clean the air of Chang''an City, they suddenly remembered the Qi disease of empress Chang sun.


    This move not only does not allow the Ministry of the people to pay, but also is conducive to the condition of empress Chang sun. It can also make Chang''an city covered with brick roads. All officials have no objection anymore.


    Suddenly, Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of work, suddenly realized that if the full name of the smelting industry had to be relocated to the industrial park in the southeast of Chang''an City, the general supervisor under the Ministry of work had many smelting workshops, so how should he deal with himself?


    How can this world be a good thing without harm? This time, he will be regarded as a prison, and he will suffer from fish in the pond.

 Chapter 344

    "Mohists deceive people too much!"


    In the lobby of the Ministry of work, he will be a young supervisor, full of anger and can''t rest.


    Exhaust gas from smelting industry in Dongshi and Xishi may affect the health of the empress changsun. Although this problem has never been mentioned before, it is not that this problem does not exist.


    However, according to the doctors, the smelting industry in the East and West cities far away from the imperial city can affect the health of empress Chang sun. Doesn''t it mean that those distributed in the imperial city will do more harm to empress Chang sun.


    "My Lord, I am humble but loyal to the emperor. The general supervisor has been distributed in the imperial city since ancient times. Is it the work of a junior official? He knows nothing about the harm to human health in the smelting industry." the general supervisor was wronged.


    Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, was unmoved and said faintly, "the Emperor didn''t blame you. What are you worried about? I have gone to Chang''an County Government to meet Lord su. Lord Su has promised to arrange a place for the supervisor for free. After the brick road is repaired, all the smelting business of the supervisor will be transferred to the industrial park."


    Jiangzuo prison is the largest industrial workshop in Datang. Jiangzuo prison will take the lead in transferring to the industrial park, which will certainly greatly contribute to the reputation of the industrial park. Su Luosheng arranges land for Jiangzuo prison free of charge, which will not lose but earn.


    Will be a little prison suddenly felt bitter. He was originally in Chang''an City and held heavy power, but he was transferred to the industrial park. How can he feel like being exiled from Chang''an City.


    Seeing that he would be a young supervisor with a reluctant face and nostalgia for the prosperity of Chang''an City, Duan Lun said with a firm face: "whether you like it or not, this matter has become a foregone conclusion. If all the smelting merchants in Chang''an City move out of Chang''an City and stay as a supervisor alone, the empress will be a supervisor in the future, and she will be a supervisor, waiting for the memorial of the imperial historian! At that time, you or I will bear the responsibility."


    Will be a little prison suddenly sweating, suddenly woke up, it is not the question of whether he will be a little prison or not. No one can afford the problem of the empress''s anger.


    He nodded repeatedly and said, "I understand your humble position, so I''ll arrange to transfer the prison workshop."


    This matter involves the Queen''s body. He will serve as a prison, which will not only unconditionally transfer, but also set an example for Chang''an city.


    Duan Lun nodded with satisfaction. For him, it doesn''t matter where he will be supervised. The key is not to leave a handle for the work department.


    The young warden''s face was bent, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Shangshu, it''s not the resentment in the lower officials'' hearts, but the fact that the Mohist''s hand is too long this time. Not to mention the industrial park this time, take this brick road. The Mohist has the secret skill of red brick. It''s just a sensation in the whole city, and the Ministry of work is almost the last to know. The Mohist''s reputation is great, but the Ministry of work is disheartened and does its best."


    Duan Lun''s face changed. If the Mexican family dedicated the red brick secret skills to the Ministry of work, Duan Lun would certainly rise in front of the imperial court. Merton not only hid the red brick secret skills, but rejected his proposal to levy corvee in advance, which made Duan Lun lose face in front of Li Shimin.


    "The following officials see that the Mohist son is proud of his secret skills and doesn''t pay attention to the work department at all. Over time, the Mohist has ink skills. Isn''t it that the work department should act according to the face of the Mohist village?" Jiang Zuo, a young supervisor, continued with a move in his heart.


    It has to be said that some businesses of Mojia village overlap with the work department. For a long time, the work department has the most advanced technology of Datang and is the leader of Datang industry. However, after the rise of foreign forces in Mojia village, Mojia village rises like a meteor by relying on ink technology, which directly threatens the position of the work department.


    Although the Ministry of work has gained many benefits from the rise of Mojia village, it does not want to take these benefits alone.


    "Mohism is one of the outstanding schools in the Pre-Qin Dynasty. It is normal for Mohism to have some secret skills for thousands of years. As long as it is dedicated to the imperial court, the Ministry of work is naturally happy to see its success." Duan Lun disagreed.


    "Lord Shangshu, I admire the spirit of Mohism, but can a small Mohist village represent the whole Mohism?" Jiang zuozhou said angrily.


    Duan Lun was puzzled and couldn''t help asking, "why do you say that?"


    There was a strange smile on the young supervisor''s face and said: "My lord doesn''t know. In the pre Qin period, Mohism was divided into three groups: Xiangli''s ink, dengling''s ink and Xiangfu''s ink. Xiangli''s entry into Qin helped the Qin Dynasty unify the world, and dengling''s entry into Chu. After the fall of Chu, Chu ink suffered heavy losses, and Xiangfu''s entry into Qi declined most. Later, with the rise of Confucianism, Mohism village was just a pulse of Xiangli''s in those days ¡£¡±


    Duan Lun said in a surprised voice, "you mean there are other two pulse Mohists left."


    "I don''t know whether the Xiangfu family still exists, but I know that there are still descendants of the Chu ink family in the south, and the craftsmanship is superb. It''s also unique in the local area. More importantly, the Mohists of the dengling family are willing to work for the Ministry of work." the junior superintendent whispered.


    "Seriously!" Duan Lun was suddenly surprised.


    If we can get the support of other Mohist schools, the Ministry of work will no longer be subject to Mohist village.


    He nodded and said, "don''t worry, sir. This man has already sent someone to invite him. Calculate the time. This man should have arrived in Chang''an City by now."


    Outside the South Gate of Chang''an city.


    People come and go, cars and horses flow ceaselessly, and business travel is endless,.


    Today''s official road in the south of the city has become the most popular place in Chang''an city because of the construction of brick roads.


    Even ordinary people want to come and experience the feeling of galloping on the brick road. Although Zhuque street is also a brick road, it is the imperial capital. Where can people gallop, but the official road in the south of the city can be galloped.


    "I have to say that although the Mohists lost their family, they did lose in the place. How can we think of paving the road with green bricks?"


    "Mohist''s ink technique is unique in the world. I heard that Mohist''s son gave his red brick secret technique. In the future, the price of bricks around Chang''an city will be reduced by half. Isn''t it half the cost for us to build houses in the future?" passers-by said happily.


    "What''s this? It''s said that after the Mohist School paved the brick road in the south of the city, the emperor and all officials came. At present, they decided to build the official road from Chang''an city to Luoyang and connect the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty in the future. The imperial court will spend more than hundreds of millions of money, and how much money will be saved than the green brick road." a well-informed idle man said proudly.


    As the pride of Chang''an City, the Mohist school makes the people of Chang''an City have honor in everything they do.


    "I have to say that although the Mohist school is young, it is bound to prosper with such a giant."


    Everyone nodded and agreed.


    "Mohist giant?"


    Beside the crowd stood a man of about 30 in black. Hearing this, he couldn''t help smiling at the corners of his mouth.


    "The important task of the revival of Mohism, how can a young man be allowed to fool around? Without the recognition of my husband, how can Mohism bear the title of Mohist giant."


    The man in black raised his head, showed a pair of firm eyes, and stepped into Chang''an city.


    After entering Chang''an City, the man in black inquired carefully. Then he boarded the four-wheel bus and passed all the way. He will soon arrive outside prison.


    "The idle people leave quickly. This is the prison of the Ministry of work and the secret place of the imperial court. If you dare to stay for no reason, you must be locked in the Yamen. If you eat prison food, don''t blame anyone!" the two generals warned the man in black.


    Hearing the speech, the man in black solemnly followed the ancient etiquette and proudly said:¡°


    "Please also inform us that Yang Siqi, the ink of Deng Ling, was invited."

 Chapter 345

    "Deng Ling''s ink."


    "Mohism?"


    Hearing what Yang Siqi said, he couldn''t help opening his eyes.


    "Yes, I am the son of Mohism." Yang Siqi said proudly.


    Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the Mohist village, the image of Mohism is very good in Chang''an city. Although the door officials did not know the difference between Deng Ling''s Mohism and Mohism, they still dared not neglect it and reported it immediately.


    "Mohist experts are here. I can''t welcome you far. Please make atonement."


    After a while, he welcomed him out in ecstasy.


    "How dare, how dare, it''s a great honor for yang to be called by the young supervisor!" although Yang Siqi is arrogant, he is a mediator after all, but he is very modest in the face of being a young supervisor.


    "Brother Yang, please come this way. Shangshu has been waiting for a long time." the general said a few greetings to the young supervisor and couldn''t wait.


    The lobby of the Ministry of works.


    Yang Siqi, the leader of the general Shaojian, came to Duan Lun, the Minister of Commerce of the Ministry of work, and said, "Sir, this person is one of the three veins of Mohism and the descendant of Deng Ling''s ink."


    Yang Siqi knew that Duan Lun was the one who decided his own destiny. At present, he did not hesitate to bow down in the tunnel: "Yang Siqi, the 30th generation descendant of Deng Ling''s ink, see Shangshu."


    "Deng Ling''s ink!"


    Duan Lun couldn''t help but flash a bright light in his eyes. He quickly held up Yang Siqi and said, "please get up quickly. The Mohist Mohist Mohist workers are famous all over the world, and the Ministry of work is also the holy land of craftsmen all over the world. It''s the gospel of the people all over the world that the Ministry of work can get the support of the Mohist dengling family!"


    Yang Siqi respectfully said, "serving the imperial court is the lifelong wish of the grass people."


    Seeing Yang Siqi''s respectful attitude, Duan Lunhe could not help nodding with satisfaction. What about the superb skills of the Mo family, which could not be used by the Ministry of work? What they needed was someone as superb as Yang Siqi and willing to be driven by the Ministry of work.


    The general made a move in his heart and said, "brother Yang said that he is the descendant of the Deng Ling family of Mohism for 30 generations. I don''t know how many generations the son of Mohism is."


    Yang Siqi said proudly, "according to my estimation, the Mohist should be the descendant of Xiangli''s 31 generations. According to the seniority, it''s not too much for the Mohist to call me martial uncle."


    He was delighted to be a young supervisor. He didn''t expect that since Yang Siqi could press Merton in his generation.


    "I''m going out of the mountain this time. First, I should be invited by the little supervisor to revitalize the Mohist school. Second, the Mohist School stole the position of the Mohist School giant. As one of the three veins of the Mohist school, I can''t sit idly by. This time, I''m going out of the mountain to let the world preside over justice and see if he has the qualification to dare to call himself the Mohist School giant."


    "The Mohists stole the position of a giant?"


    Duan Lunhe will make a little supervisor and look at Yang Siqi in surprise.


    Yang Siqi said: "the great masters of Mohism in the past dynasties, first, they should have excellent Mohist skills. Second, they should be popular and get the unanimous approval of the three veins of Mohism. The one vein of Mohist village is just the descendant of Xiangli''s one vein. When they are recognized by my dengling''s one vein, they dare to call themselves a great master of Mohism."


    "As far as I know, Merton''s position as a mogul was spread when the public loser came to Beijing, but the mogul has always denied it." Duan Lun frowned.


    Yang Siqi sneered: "the world calls Merton the son of the Mohist family. How can Merton, a yellow haired boy, be the son of the Mohist family? Even if the Mohist family denies it, I''m afraid the world will mistakenly think that the Mohist family is a giant of the Mohist family. The Mohist family is so confusing that I can''t sit back and ignore it."


    The young supervisor looked at Yang Siqi with open eyes and tongue tied. He clearly knew that the title of Mohist was not a commendatory word at the beginning. However, with the popularity of Mohist in Chang''an city again and again, the title of Mohist gradually spread. However, the title of Mohist did have confusing meaning.


    In this era, those who can be called sons are all outstanding figures, such as Mozi, Lao Tzu, Confucius, Han Feizi, etc. whoever hears the title of Mozi for the first time, I''m afraid he will subconsciously mistake Merton for a Mozi giant


    Duan Lun looked at Yang Siqi thoughtfully. He came out of the mountain again. I''m afraid it''s false to revive the Mohist school. I''m afraid it''s true to covet the position of Mohist giant.


    Duan Lun doesn''t care about this, and he is happy to see his success because he can cause trouble to the Mexican family,.


    "I''ve heard that the sages of Mohism in the past dynasties compiled a Mozi secret book from what they learned all their life. As the descendant of the dengling family, I don''t know whether the dengling family owns this book." Duan Lun pointed out.


    "Mozi is close!" Yang Siqi jumped in his heart.


    In his opinion, Mozi''s close work has contributed to the great achievements of Mozi, but unfortunately, there is no mention of it in his dengling family, but of course Yang Siqi can''t say he doesn''t know it, otherwise he may no longer be valuable in front of Duan Lun.


    Yang Siqi instantly changed his indignant expression and said: "This book is the most precious book of the Mohist school. It has always been under the control of the Mohist giants. Since Tian Xiangzi, the third giant, there has been no trace. It must be the vein of Xiangli''s Qin Mo, who took the opportunity to take it as his own when he unified the world with the help of the violent Qin Dynasty. This is also an important reason why he came out of the mountain. Mozi''s secret book is the whole of the Mohist school The possession of the body, how can it be possessed alone by Xiangli''s pulse. "


    Duan Lun immediately believed in the speech. When the Qin Dynasty unified the world, Qin Mohism was indispensable and had been active in various battlefields. It was also very possible to take the opportunity to obtain Mozi''s secret.


    Although Yang Siqi has the ambition to plot Mozi''s Secret works, he also indirectly corrects the existence of Mozi''s Secret works for Merton.


    The general frowned and said, "Mozi is just a yellow haired child. With Mozi''s close contact, he can achieve such great merit and such a precious thing. How can Mozi be willing to hand it over."


    Duan Lun nodded solemnly. If he had such a treasure, he would not easily hand it over. Although Mozi claims that Mozi''s secret has been lost, who can believe it?


    Yang Siqi said proudly, "naturally, the Mohist family doesn''t want to hand it over, but what if the Mohist giant asks it to hand it over?"


    "Mohist giant?" they were puzzled.


    "Therefore, if you want to get Mozi''s secret, you must get the position of Mozi''s giant. Please also ask adult Duan to testify to the Mohist school, and let the Mohist dengling''s vein and Xiangli''s vein compete with each other in ink skills. Whoever wins is the new Mohist giant." Yang Siqi said his ultimate goal.


    Duan Lun and Yang Siqi want to use his hand to get the secret of Mozi. He doesn''t want to use the influence of the Ministry of work to get the position of Mozi giants.


    "This!" Duan Lun hesitated immediately.


    After all, Mohism is one of the most famous schools in the world, with a rapid development momentum. Mohism has won the sacred heart of the emperor. More importantly, Mohism is not a good stubble. The name of Mohism''s little catfish is not a false name. It has sharp teeth and sharp mouth. It hurts the heart of the big family of Taiyuan Wang family.


    "If I get the position of the great master of Mohism, I will dedicate Mozi to my lord closely, and in the future, Mohism will follow the lead of the Ministry of works." Yang Siqi gritted his teeth.


    Duan Lun moved in his heart and said with a smile: "I don''t want to covet the Mohist scriptures. If you give it to the imperial court."


    Yang Siqi lowered his eyebrows and whispered, "that''s what villains mean."


    Duan Lun laughed and said, "since this is an internal dispute of Mohism, we can''t help witnessing it, but you also need to have the unique skill of holding hands, otherwise you will be disgraced. That''s not good."


    Yang Siqi said proudly, "don''t worry, my Lord. Although Deng Ling''s pulse has lost Mozi''s secret, I haven''t been idle for thousands of years. I''ve never met an enemy just by the way of Mohist mechanism."


    Yang Siqi had already prepared and soon took out his skills.


    Duan Lunhe will be the little supervisor, and he is as surprised as heaven and man.


    Soon, the news that Yang Siqi, a descendant of the Mohist dengling family, challenged the Mohist son spread all over Chang''an city.

 Chapter 346

    East city.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    Rows of lifelike wooden monkey dolls were neatly placed together. With Yang Siqi pulling a switch, all wooden monkey dolls beat the drum surface in front of them regularly.


    "Excellent workmanship!"


    The onlookers immediately saw that the wooden monkey doll was uncontrollable and played the drum by itself. They were surprised and praised one after another.


    However, this is not over. As the drums continue to fall, people are surprised to find that these wooden monkey dolls beat a very beautiful song.


    "This is the breaking array dance of the king of Qin."


    A man who knew music under the stage cried out.


    "The king of Qin broke the array dance?" the crowd was surprised.


    You should know that King Qin''s array breaking dance is one of the most difficult tracks in the world, and Yang Siqi even played a song spontaneously by a wooden monkey doll. What an amazing stunt.


    "This is the real mechanism skill of Mohism. It is exquisite and unpredictable. Yang Siqi, the ink of the lower dengling family, officially challenged Mohism. Five days later, he formally challenged Mohism! Take Mohism''s mechanism skill as the winner, and the Mohist giant will be the winner." Yang Siqi proudly challenged when he saw his masterpiece.


    "Compete with Mohist mechanism skills!"


    "The winner is the mogul!"


    The news spread all over Chang''an like a whirlwind.


    "Mohist is not a Mohist giant!" many people in Chang''an City were stunned at the speech.


    Someone nodded and carefully said the origin of the title of Mohist.


    "In my opinion, the reason why the Mohist school has such a grand occasion can be attributed to the Mohist school. How can a dog and cat come out at random to challenge the Mohist school." a young man in black, with a flat mouth, said that he is wearing ink clothes every day and is obviously a loyal fan of Merton.


    "This person is not a dog or a cat, but a descendant of the dengling family of Mohism. In those days, the dengling family was also the leader of the southern Mohism. Yang Siqi was obviously the direct descendant of the dengling family." a middle-aged man dressed outside the member knew the history of Mohism and explained.


    "So, this young man surnamed Yang can also compete for the giants of Mohism!" the young man in black was surprised.


    The member nodded and said: "it is said that this man is very skilled. He is famous in Yangzhou and can be said to be the best in the south of the Yangtze River.


    "Ah! It''s so powerful!" the people were surprised.


    "In my opinion, the MOH family has an opponent this time," exclaimed the member.


    "Hum! What kind of person the Mohist family is, and how can he take this person in the eye." the young man in black did not hesitate to believe in the Mohist family. After all, the Mohist family has repeatedly created miracles, which time has not shocked the world.


    However, at the moment, the Mohist mechanism skills displayed by Yang Siqi are too amazing. Even if they believe in the Mohist family again, they have no confidence. You know, although the Mohist family''s ink skills are amazing and shock the world every time, they have not shown such exquisite ink skills in recent years.


    For a moment, everyone was secretly anxious and guessed how the Mexican family would deal with it.


    In the Mo mansion.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at Merton and looked at the Tang law in his hand. He was angry and didn''t fight.


    "At this time, you still have leisure to read. Deng Ling''s ink has bullied your head, and you have no reaction." Qin Huaiyu was angry and defeated.


    "How do you want me to react!" Merton sighed and put down his Tang law.


    "Of course, it was a positive response. He was defeated by him with ink skills, which convinced him." Chumo answered loudly.


    "Hmm!" Wei Chi Baolin waved his fist heavily.


    Merton looked at the three bad friends who were afraid that the world would not be disordered, and said helplessly: "in terms of simple skills, this person has been unique in the world and developed it to the extreme. Even if Uncle Zhang, the best craftsman in Mojia village, makes a move, I''m afraid he is not sure of winning."


    "What should I do?" Chumo is surprised.


    "Do you want to give way to the position of the Mohist giants?" Wei Chi Baolin said angrily.


    "Let him be a giant of Mohism, I bah! If it weren''t for Merton, Mohism wouldn''t be as brilliant as it is now. Mohism has been silent for thousands of years. Why doesn''t Deng Ling''s ink appear? At the moment, Mohism has just revived, and everyone has emerged." Qin Huaiyu''s anger can''t rest.


    "In my opinion, this man has ulterior motives. Why don''t we and others solve this problem for you?" Chumo said fiercely in his eyes.


    "Don''t, Mohism has been silent for thousands of years. There are few people left in that vein. It''s not easy to come up with another branch of Mohism. Which one is missing is the loss of Mohism." Merton quickly stopped.


    "Then what should you do?" Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    Merton shook his head and said, "puppet drumming is the work of the game. Deng Ling''s choice of this comparison has fallen into the inferior. If the Mojia village agrees to the competition, it will be self indulgent and degenerate."


    "Let him be so arrogant?" Chumo said angrily.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this thing reveals something strange. This person quietly heard that there must be someone behind the scenes to create such a storm in Chang''an city today. Observe it for a few days."


    Qin Huaiyu nodded deeply. Sure enough, the next day, Yang Siqi returned to Chang''an. Challenge the major craftsmen in Chang''an city one after another, and everyone will admire them wherever they go.


    On the third day, Yang Siqi appeared at the gate of Gongshu home and challenged Gongshu Hong''s best carpentry skills. After three matches in a row, Gongshu Hong lost half of his moves and conceded.


    On the fourth day, Yang Siqi went to the work department and challenged the great craftsman of the whole work department with his own strength. Lien Chan won in a row and won the Imperial College.


    Duan Lun, the Minister of industry, was not angry but happy. He was shocked and personally recommended Yang Siqi to Li Shimin.


    For four days in a row, the reputation of Deng Ling''s ink immediately caused a sensation in Chang''an city. Everyone was looking forward to Merton''s fight on the fifth day.


    "Duan Lun!"


    Merton knew it. If Merton had not been familiar with history, he would have been cheated by the show between Duan Lun and Yang Siqi.


    The two really colluded together. It seems that the work department must have played an ignominious role behind Yang Siqi''s challenge this time.


    Merton sneered in his heart. Duan Lun tried his best, but he didn''t know that his introduction of Yang Siqi was probably the most wrong decision he made in his life, and he Duan Lun would also pay a painful lesson for it.


    "Fuber!" cried Merton.


    "Master!" replied fauberton.


    "Is Mojia village ready for what I asked to prepare?" Merton asked.


    Fubo replied, "back to the young master, the Mojia village has worked overtime, and a batch has already been made."


    Merton nodded and said coldly, "respond to Deng Ling''s ink. Tomorrow afternoon, Mojia village will take over the challenge of Deng Ling''s ink."

 Chapter 347

    The fifth day.


    East city!


    Before noon, there were already a sea of people.


    In recent days, Mohism has once again detonated Chang''an City, whether it is the history of Mohism, the technology of Deng Ling''s and Yang Siqi''s pressure on Chang''an City, or the struggle of Mohist giants.


    The history of Mohism, which has been neglected for thousands of years, has spread crazily in the shortest time. Now, let alone the whole Chang''an City, even if Beijing Zhaofu pulls anyone, I''m afraid it can open up the history of Mohism and pull you to discuss it with interest..


    Mozi is close! Mohist three points! The people of Chang''an city are familiar with and enjoy talking about it.


    This is also the reason why Merton agreed to Yang Siqi''s challenge. After this ink skill competition, no matter what the outcome, the reputation of the Mohist school is bound to rise to a higher level in a short time.


    "Here comes the ink of Deng Ling."


    There was a sudden commotion in the crowd. Yang Siqi, who was dressed in ink, came slowly, with an image of a great sage.


    Yang Siqi boarded the platform where the wooden monkey dolls were placed before and bowed his hands to the people in Chang''an City: "today is the day when Deng Ling''s ink came out of the mountain again. Mohism is a prominent school in the Pre-Qin Dynasty. Although it has been silent for thousands of years, how can it sink forever. Today, Yang officially challenged the Mohist machine pass to the Mohist School and decided to become a great Mohist."


    "Go down, if it weren''t for the Mohist family, who knows the Mohist family!" a people in Chang''an suddenly shouted in the crowd.


    Many people nodded in succession. The Mohist school made great contributions to the revival of the Mohist school. In the hearts of the people in Chang''an City, the Mohist school is from the Mohist school, and the Mohist school is the Mohist school. Can anyone replace the Mohist school.


    "Yes, do you know the secret skills of living fish? Can you write poetry?"


    "Can you make ice and food in summer?"


    "Can you fight drought and control locusts? Can you control the Yellow River?"


    "Do you know the red brick secret skill?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an City booed one after another under the stage. Before Merton came forward, the people under the stage couldn''t get Yang Siqi down.


    "The most important thing of Mohism is the skill of mechanism!" Yang Siqi retorted weakly.


    "No, the most important thing of Mohism is to love the thought of non attack." a crisp young voice suddenly came.


    Suddenly, the whole audience was suddenly silent. One by one, they looked at the figure of a young man with worship eyes. It was this young man who, with his own strength, provoked the important task of the revival of the whole Mohist school.


    "Mojiazi!"


    The people of the whole city immediately shouted, excited one by one.


    "Mozi will win!"


    "Mozi will win!"


    Yang Siqi looked at the blind believers of Mohism and said to himself, "Mohism, don''t think you''ll win."


    After that, Yang Siqi turned his eyes to one side. On the side of the stand, Duan Lun, the Minister of industry, was impressively listed.


    "Today, the Mohists compete on the same stage. If not, how about letting me be a witness?" Duan Lun sighed and knew that if he didn''t show up again, Yang Siqi might have lost before the competition.


    "Lord Shangshu!" all the people saluted quickly.


    "Lord Shangshu is busy with his business. How can he have time to make a private visit?" Merton sneered. As expected. Duan Lun jumped out unwilling to be lonely.


    Duan Lun said with a smile, "Lord Mo doesn''t know yet! Yang Siqi has joined our work department. My official has written to the imperial court to appoint him as a master craftsman, ranking first among craftsmen."


    "Oh, that''s gratifying. The Mohist school has been recognized by the Ministry of work. Although it''s not the same branch, Mo is also honored." Merton said with a smile.


    Duan Lun smiled when he heard the speech and said, "although master Yang is a master of the Ministry of works, today''s matter is the internal affairs of the Mohist school. I''m inconvenient to interfere more. I''m just a witness."


    Merton sneered at the speech. If you Duan Lun had no other thoughts, I''m afraid you wouldn''t have appeared here.


    When Yang Siqi saw that Merton didn''t put it in his eyes at all, he was angry in his heart. He proudly stepped out and said, "Mert of dengling''s family came to challenge the pulse of Xiangli''s family."


    Merton''s eyes narrowed slightly. It was when he looked at Yang Siqi. At first glance, Merton confirmed that Yang Siqi was indeed a family of Mohism. From his dressing temperament, Merton found that Yang Siqi and Merton''s impression of Mo lie were surprisingly similar.


    "You''re the only one who came out of the mountain?" Merton asked with a frown.


    Yang Siqi said proudly, "every generation of Deng Ling''s ink must have the most exquisite ink technology. It has been handed down for 30 generations now, and only the next person can get the true legend."


    There is only one person left in Deng Ling''s ink! The crowd was in an uproar when they heard the speech. They couldn''t believe it and looked at Yang Siqi.


    "There''s only one left!" Morton said in amazement.


    "And you''re the only one who''s left." Yang Siqi said with a smile.


    "Ah!"


    Everyone was surprised and looked at mojiazi and Yang Siqi in disbelief.


    "It''s impossible! Aren''t there thousands of families in Mojia village?"


    Many people in Chang''an shook their heads and retorted.


    An insider explained: "don''t you find that there is only Merton in the direct line of the Mojia village? Most of the other villagers are descendants of the disabled veterans of the magic camp. Strictly speaking, the Mojia village is really the only one left in the Mojia village, which is the legitimate descendant of the Mojia."


    People suddenly realized that the form of Mohism was so bad that there was only one person left for two successive generations. I''m afraid this is the reason why Mohism came out one after another. If it doesn''t change, Mohism will really disappear in the long river of history!


    Merton shook his head and said, "there are not so many opinions in Mohist village. As long as they abide by Mohist ideas and do Mohist things, they can be called Mohist disciples."


    Many people nodded secretly.


    Yang Siqi said proudly, "even if there is only one person, Deng Ling''s ink will not lose to any hundred schools."


    There was a burst of bitterness in Merton''s heart. The Mohist school was bound by this narrow thought step by step and did not reach the extreme.


    "There is only one person left in the ink of Deng Ling''s family. What''s the point of fighting here between you and me." Merton said blankly when he saw this.


    "You Mozi are young and ignorant, act recklessly, violate the teachings of the Mozi ancestors, and privately teach the Mozi secret skills. Xiangli''s pulse withers and no one can control you. Then I dengling''s pulse will teach you the rules of the Mozi!" Yang Siqi forced.


    Merton narrowed his eyes and said sternly, "Oh, what are the Mohist rules?"


    "If you compete with the Mohist''s mechanism skills, you can become a Mohist giant only by pressing the group of Mohists." Yang Siqi said sternly.


    "Ha ha ha." Merton laughed loudly, and tears came out of his laughter.


    "Deng Ling''s ink has only one person left, and he even has to fight inside. It seems that there is no reason for the decline of Mohism for thousands of years. If you want the title of giant, you will be. Now that Xiangfu''s family is away and Mohist village is out of the struggle for giants, how can you be a giant of Mohism alone?" Merton smiled miserably.


    Yang Siqi was shocked and angry and said, "you Merton dare to regard the position of a giant as nothing."


    The position of a giant is the highest honor of the Mohist school. Yang Siqi didn''t expect that the Mohist school should give up and let go.


    Many people in the audience immediately sneered. You know that Mohist is unreliable. Mohist has been unreliable for a long time. Mohist did things in a wild way that time, and the antelope hung his horn without trace.

 Chapter 348

    Merton sneered: "since Tian Xiangzi, the Mohist school has not had a giant for thousands of years. Since there was no giant before, there will be no giant in the future. The giant is the most respected title of the Mohist school, not a weapon for power and profit. It''s better not to have such a giant."


    All the people nodded thoughtfully.


    Yang Siqi''s face was uncertain. He sighed for a long time and said, "the ink of Deng Ling''s family asks Xiangli''s ink for advice here."


    "Ah!" Duan Lun was in a hurry. How did the original plan to capture the mogul become a competition between the two Mohists on the same stage? In this way, even if he won, I''m afraid he won''t get Mozi''s secret.


    Unfortunately, Yang Siqi ignored Duan Lun''s eyes and solemnly took out a wooden box from behind. "The wooden monkey doll is just the work of the next game, and my Deng Ling''s real ink skills are several times more exquisite."


    Merton''s face was solemn and said, "Merton, the descendant of Xiangfu''s ink, is waiting for Gao Zuo."


    Yang Siqi opened the wooden box and took out parts to assemble in public. Soon, a puppet was formed in Yang Siqi''s hands.


    "Doll!"


    Many people immediately disapprove. Puppets are very common in the Tang Dynasty. They are not so rare.


    However, Yang Siqi''s doll is extremely exquisite and as tall as ordinary people. What''s more surprising is that Yang Siqi puts on clothes for it. If people didn''t know it was a doll, they might mistakenly think it was a real person.


    More subtly, under the control of Yang Siqi, the doll is doing all kinds of actions, just like ordinary people.


    "Good!"


    The people of Chang''an city immediately applauded, even if they were very optimistic about the Mo family, but at the moment, they had to admit that Yang Siqi''s mechanism doll was really exquisite.


    However, the Puppeteer''s performance did not end. Yang Siqi suddenly gave up his control over the puppet, and the puppet even walked ten steps in a row like an ordinary person. Only then did he stop and still stand there straight.


    Merton was shocked and his eyes flashed. Yang Siqi was really good. He even groped for a power structure similar to clockwork.


    "This!..."


    The people in Chang''an City were shocked one by one, and the puppets were alive. There are not a few puppets in Chang''an city. However, such a magic as Yang Siqi is unprecedented.


    "It''s the best place in the south of the Yangtze River. It really deserves its reputation." the people secretly praised it.


    "Merton, what''s the ink skill of my dengling family?" Yang Siqi said confidently.


    Merton nodded his head and said with appreciation: "the craftsmanship, especially the skill of the last automatic walking mechanism, is unique in the world."


    "Can Mohist village have this ink technique?" Yang Siqi asked in high spirits.


    "Mojia village has not reached this level." Merton shook his head and denied.


    Duan Lun was overjoyed when he heard that Merton thought he was inferior.


    "I don''t know how much it cost." Merton suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question.


    Yang Siqi said proudly, "this thing needs to be made by myself. Each mechanism is extremely exquisite. There are two in the world. Even if others take out thousands of gold, they don''t change it."


    "There are two in the world, which are worth thousands of gold." the people immediately burst into an uproar.


    Merton nodded approvingly, "it''s worth it! It''s not too valuable."


    With the power structure similar to clockwork, it has been ahead of this era. It is not only valuable, but also priceless.


    When Yang Siqi heard Merton''s affirmation, he was immediately proud. However, when he heard Merton''s words, he turned around and said, "the idea of Mohism is to love both sides and not attack. We are still the same and virtuous. What we pursue is that the ordinary people can have it equally. Even if your puppet is more exquisite, I''m afraid only a few people can enjoy it. The ordinary people may be poor for their whole life and have no chance to have it."


    Yang Siqi''s heart sank when he heard the speech. Mohist Zi did say that he had the biggest defect of this technique. Although this technique represents the most exquisite mechanism technique, it may be difficult to promote in this era, which is indeed inconsistent with the concept of Mohism.


    Merton smiled and said, "I have a toy worth no more than five Wen, but it can make countless playthings for people''s entertainment. Please taste it."


    Merton said that he would take out a square object from his cuff, stretch out his hand and throw it to Yang Siqi.


    Yang Siqi quickly reached out and took it. What he saw in his hand was a cube composed of several small squares. The cube had six sides, each of which had different color distribution, and were divided into nine small squares on average.


    "This is!" Yang Siqi looked at Merton puzzled.


    This is the principle of Mohist school, which is the simplest organ of Mohist school, but it contains the essence and principle of Mohist organ''s operation.


    At this moment, a group of Mohist children came forward one after another to distribute the ink squares to the people under the stage. They picked up the ink squares and turned them gently, but they found that the ink squares could turn in all aspects.


    "How to use this?" many people were stunned and puzzled to turn the ink square in their hands.


    Suddenly, a common people suddenly exclaimed, "why can''t you turn back."


    At the moment, people found that when they turned, the color of the ink square had been confused, and it was impossible to restore the original color.


    Merton smiled and said, "although this ink square has only six sides, it is infinitely changeable, but the root cause is only one, that is, Shangtong."


    "Shang Tong!" Yang Siqi was shocked. As the core of Mohist Thought, Shang Tong was engraved in the hearts of every Mohist. He kept turning the ink square in his hands, but it was still futile. Instead, he became more and more confused, and the color of the whole ink square became more and more chaotic.


    Merton said proudly, "the ultimate goal of the ink side is to restore the original same color surface, so this ink side is also called Shangtong ink side."


    "Shang Tongmo Fang!"


    Everyone was amazed. No one thought that a small four square should fit the core idea of Mohism.


    Yang Siqi is sweating and shocked. A simple mechanism technique has been enriched by Mohist Zi. The value of Mohist philosophy is naturally different.


    "The Mohist school benefits the world with the art of mechanism. How can it use the ink technology to make strange things for a few people to entertain? How can such ink technology be pursued by the sages of the Mohist school." Merton shouted flatly.


    Duan Lun was flustered and confused. If he went on like this, Yang Siqi would not break through. At present, he quickly said, "the ink skills of the two ink painters have their own strengths. If not, how about a draw!"


    "I lost!" Yang Siqi put down his ink square and shook his head and sighed.


    He did not lose in ink technology, but lost the idea of Mohism. What he did was to serve dignitaries and abandon the majority of ordinary people. He can imagine that after today, such exquisite ink will surely spread all over the world, and Merton''s same idea will always spread. And what did he get after winning the smile of powerful people?


    "Shang Tong Mo Fang, I''m convinced that Deng Ling''s family has failed in one stroke. I don''t know if the Mohist school can show us the real Shang Tong method." Yang Siqi shouted in his eyes.


    Hearing the speech, the people around couldn''t help looking forward to looking at the Mo family.


    Merton showed a confident look and reached out to take over a chaotic ink square from the audience. At present, he held the ink square with one hand and moved the ink square with five fingers like a whirlwind.


    The whole audience was suddenly silent, there was a sound of needle dropping, and there was only the click of ink square rotation.


    After ten breaths, Merton suddenly shook the ink square and made two clicks. When Merton spread the ink square again, all six sides recovered.

 Chapter 349

    Shang Tongmo Fangsi had no unexpected fire.


    Almost everyone in Chang''an City, from noble young masters to civilian children, even the imperial palace.


    In the palace.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun rarely enjoy leisure time. Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi are concentrating on playing ink square.


    "Father and mother, look at my Shang Tongmo Fang!" Princess Jinyang raised the newly restored Mo Fang in her hand and showed off to Li Shimin and empress changsun with a happy face.


    When Merton issued the ink cube again, he did not deliberately embarrass the world. The reason why the ink cube became popular in later generations was that mathematics developed to a certain level and computer simulation calculus was the simplest. Now all kinds of conditions are immature. Merton will directly disclose the ink cube''s seven step formula at the same time.


    Although there are formulas, it is also a big problem for children. Every level of recovery has a great sense of achievement.


    "Good, good! It''s the best to return my son!" Li Shimin said with a shocked face.


    "Father emperor, do you think I''m a son of Mohism now?" Princess Jinyang opened her eyes and said in a hopeful voice.


    "Children of Mohism?" Li Shimin didn''t understand.


    "The Mohist side said that if you want to become a Mohist child, you must first restore the Mohist Shang Tongmo side. The third sister, the fourth sister, the fifth brother and the sixth brother are all Mohist children. I want to be a Mohist child too!" the princess of Jinyang said with her mouth.


    When Merton released the ink cube, the Mohists made a wave of advertisements, saying that restoring the ink cube in the future will be one of the necessary conditions for becoming the children of the Mohists. In the palace, other princes and princesses, after restoring the ink cube, all claimed to be the children of the Mohists, which made the princess of Jinyang greedy.


    Li Shimin burst into laughter and couldn''t help but wonder, "why should Yuzi be a son of the Mohist school?"


    Princess Jinyang said proudly, "if I became a child of Mohism, I would be as powerful as Merton."


    "If you want to be a child of Mohism, do you know the origin of Shang Tongmo Fang?" Li Shimin said.


    "Mo Fang is the art of Mohist mechanism, and Shang Tong is one of Mohist ideas. She loves non attack, Shang Tong and Shang Xian,......" Princess Jinyang opened her mouth and said it.


    "Yuzi is so clever!" Li Shimin praised.


    "Father emperor, do you think I''m a son of Mohism now?"


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "count, you''re so powerful, of course."


    "Yo! I''m also a son of Mohism,"


    "I can do mechanism, too."


    Princess Jinyang jumped up excitedly,


    "But the ninth elder brother will not recover. He can''t compare with me!" Princess Jinyang laughed at Li Zhi and showed off in front of Li Zhi, which made Li Zhi make a mistake again.


    Li Zhi suddenly snorted, lowered his head and tried to fiddle with the ink square in his hand.


    Looking at the fun played by Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi, empress Chang Sun said with emotion: "I have to say that Merton''s ink side is really unique, linked, moving the whole body with one hair, and teaching in fun. It''s more difficult than another. People can''t stop. They''ve been crazy in the palace these days."


    "Shang Tongmo Fang!"


    Li Shimin looked at the square blocks in his hand, nodded and said, "it''s not just the palace. In my opinion, the whole Chang''an City has spread. It won''t be long before it will be popular throughout the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin knows the charm of ink more clearly than empress Chang sun. In fact, it is not only liked by urchins. Ink is simple, convenient, portable and changeable. Even adults can''t help indulging in it.


    "The more important Mohist Thought is also widely spread. She loves non aggression and is still the same as the sages,...." empress Chang sun opened her mouth and spoke the Mohist Thought fluently.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "this ink square not only has far-reaching implications, but also is full of fun. Children playing ink square can also open children''s wisdom. It is widely said in Chang''an city that the reason why the ink family is so smart is that it is still the same as the ink square. Once the ink family launched this thing, it was all the rage in Chang''an city."


    Empress Chang sun smiled and said, "in my opinion, the biggest advantage of this thing is that it is cheap!"


    In this era, there are too few children''s playthings, and most of them are dead objects. Suddenly, an interesting ink square that can be one by one is very popular. Even ordinary people can afford one for five Wen.


    "Merton is very slippery, but he has one of the biggest advantages, that is, he adheres to the concept of Mohism, and even the common people can benefit from what he does." Li Shimin lamented that every new object of Mohism must have one thing in common, that is, it can be popularized on a large scale and take into account the benefits of most people to the greatest extent


    People are like water. Water can carry a boat and overturn a boat. Li Shimin knows this truth well. This is the reason why he pays special attention to Mohism.


    "The Mohist school can have today because your Majesty''s eyes are as sharp as a torch." empress Chang sun nodded.


    When the Mohist school first appeared, it was extremely weak. In addition, the Mohist revival was extremely sensitive. If Li Shimin hadn''t personally taken care of it, the Mohist revival would have suffered much pressure. How could there be today''s situation.


    "A young man can think of his country, but the important officials of the imperial court put their mind on the wonderful sexual skills, which really disappoints me."


    Li Shimin''s eyes drifted to one side involuntarily, on the exquisite doll thrown aside by Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi. Yang Siqi once said that there were only two such dolls in the world. One Yang Siqi took it to compete with Merton, and the other was presented to the emperor by Duan Lun.


    If someone else offers this thing, it''s not impossible. However, Duan Lun is the Minister of the Ministry of work of the imperial court and an official of the imperial court. In addition, Li Shimin has repeatedly ordered that the imperial court prohibit extravagance and extravagance. Duan Lun''s move can be described as knowing the law and breaking the law.


    "Someone sent a message to the Ministry of industry. The state recruited skilled craftsmen to serve the country. The Minister of the Ministry of industry offered ingenious and lewd skills to seduce kings and officials. It was a great dereliction of duty. His officials and nobles were reduced to one level to make an example," Li Shimin shouted.


    "Yes!" pound immediately offered the edict.


    "Deng Ling''s ink, Yang Siqi!" Li Shimin thought for a moment, gently waved and said, "this man''s original intention is to fight with Merton, there is no fault, no reward or punishment."


    "The emperor is wise." empress Chang sun looked at Li Shimin admiringly.


    Shangshu mansion.


    Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, listened to the Edict and was sweating all over.


    Pound said with a smile: "Lord Duan, your majesty, thunder, rain and dew are all grace. Lord Duan, take the order!"


    Duan Lun respectfully took over the imperial edict, wiped a cold sweat, respectfully saluted the Imperial Palace and said, "please tell your majesty that the old minister must reflect on himself and live up to your Majesty''s teachings."


    After pound left, Duan Lun was angry when he saw the imperial edict in his hand. The six books of history are the position of the third grade. He was cut first, and became the only one of the six books from the third grade. It can be said that he lost face.


    What''s more important is his title. Duan Lun was an official of the Sui Dynasty. When Li Yuan occupied Chang''an, he took the initiative to meet Li Tang''s army with Lantian County officers and soldiers. Only then did Li Yuan value it and marry his daughter to him.


    All his life, he speculated and drilled, with the wind and water, but this time, he not only finally met the iron plate, but not only failed to plot to get close to Mozi, steal the chicken can not erode the rice, cut his official rank one level, and became the biggest laughing stock of the imperial court.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Duan Lun immediately gnashed his teeth in his heart. At this time, he finally realized the pain of being bitten by the Taiyuan Wang family.

 Chapter 350

    "Cut off the official rank!"


    "Hahaha, Duan Lun is still an old man today. It''s really gratifying!"


    In the ink mansion, Qin Huaiyu laughed loudly, looking like gloating.


    This time, the internal struggle of Mohist school was started because of this person. It can be said that it deserved to get such an end.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them were like small people who achieved their goals. After celebrating a lot, they calmed down.


    Wei Chi Baolin said suspiciously, "although he was demoted to the third grade, he was still the Minister of the Ministry of work. He didn''t have much loss!"


    Chumo shook his head and said, "you don''t know. He was a hidden Prince and a son-in-law. After his majesty came to power, he ignored his past grievances and used him heavily. This time, Duan Lun lost all his face and must be in great danger in the Ministry of work. In my opinion, he won''t sit in the position of the Minister of work for long."


    Qin Huaiyu nodded. Officialdom is so cruel. If you take the wrong step, you will be doomed. Which chief official of the three provinces and six departments is a real power official position, and there are not a few people staring at these official positions. I''m afraid there are not a few who fall into such a big mistake by Duan Lun. I''m afraid Duan Lun''s position as the Minister of the Ministry of industry is no longer secure.


    Merton shook his head and said carelessly, "Duan Lun did his own evil this time. He spent his whole life in business and opportunism. He deserved to end up like this. However, our brothers are not in the court. This man''s gain and loss of power has nothing to do with us."


    The root of Mohism is Mohist village, not in chaotang, which is also the basis for Merton''s freedom to advance and retreat.


    "But it''s a pity that Yang Siqi, a traitor of Mohism, escaped." Qin Huaiyu said bitterly.


    Merton was silent and said, "craftsmen are in a low position. It''s normal to rely on powerful people. Sometimes we have no choice."


    Chumo said angrily, "it''s time for you to speak for him."


    "It''s a joke to kill each other in the same vein of Mohism." Merton said.


    "No one hurts the tiger''s heart, and the tiger hurts people. If you let him go this time, you don''t know whether he can let you go next time." Qin Huaiyu said that as a dandy in Chang''an City, these officialdom principles have long gone deep into their bone marrow.


    "I was born from the same root. Why should we be in such a hurry? Both Deng Ling''s and Xiang Li''s are descendants of Mohism. Mohism loves others and doesn''t attack them. How can we throw stones at our fellow disciples? Besides, he will soon leave Chang''an City and pose no threat to Mohist village?" said Merton.


    "Leave Chang''an City? It''s impossible! He managed to join the Ministry of work, how can he leave easily." the three people don''t believe that Yang Siqi will take the initiative to leave Chang''an city. They can see that Yang Siqi''s utilitarian heart is very strong. How can he easily give up his wealth and wealth.


    Merton smiled and said, "there''s nothing wrong with the utilitarian heart. Since Yang Siqi came to Chang''an city to ask for officials and money, because of his reason, the Minister of the Ministry of work was cut off as an official and Baron. Even if his majesty didn''t blame him, Duan Lun hasn''t been dismissed after all. With Duan Lun''s character, you think he has a better life in the Ministry of work."


    "Now that the way to seek an official has been cut off, there is only one left to ask for money. If the Mojia village gives money to him," Merton said, the three people immediately looked at Merton like fools. Yang Siqi was scheming and malicious, and Merton wanted to give money to him. He wouldn''t be out of his mind!


    Qin Huaiyu was shocked and said, "you want Yang Siqi''s puppet skill."


    Merton didn''t hide it and nodded generously


    Qin Huaiyu said angrily, "you''re crazy. Duan Lun''s lesson has only been a few hours."


    The three were immediately shocked by Merton''s boldness. You know, your majesty just reprimanded Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, and banned such puppet plays. Merton even took the initiative to ask for this puppet skill. Isn''t he looking for death?


    "What others think of as a trick is valuable in the eyes of Mojia village. With such a secret skill in front of us, how can Mojia village slip away in vain?" Merton said proudly.


    Quchi square.


    "Yang Siqi lives here?" Merton frowned, looking at a dilapidated house in front of him.


    "Back to young master, there are Mohist children who have been watching and live here." tie an nodded.


    As the last descendant of Deng Ling''s ink, Yang Siqi''s situation is not much better than that of Mohist village. Fortunately, he doesn''t have as many mouths as Mohist village. At least he has some savings and rents this house in Chang''an City as a place to stay.


    Merton didn''t say much, but politely knocked on the door and said in a high voice: "Merton of Xiangli''s came to visit. Dare you ask martial uncle Yang where he can be."


    Among the houses, Yang Siqi is in a panic. Duan Lun, who was harmed this time, has cut off the rank and rank. I''m afraid he has completely offended Duan Lun, and it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the Ministry of industry in the future.


    However, if he wanted to give up his position as a great craftsman in the work department, he was extremely reluctant. When he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard Merton''s visit. He almost didn''t and jumped up.


    "The ink family!" Yang Siqi was frightened. He didn''t expect the ink family to come to the door.


    However, Merton''s words are respectful and observe etiquette. In addition, Yang Siqi is the last descendant of Deng Ling''s ink, and he still has courage and wisdom.


    When the door of the house opened, Yang Siqi came out and shouted, "Mo family, are you coming to see the joke of Deng Ling''s ink?"


    "No, I just came to make a deal with you, Deng Ling''s ink." Merton said solemnly.


    "Trading?" Yang siqidun was messy in the wind.


    "Of course, I once said that your skill of puppet mechanism is worth thousands of gold. Today I come with money and only ask for secret skills." Merton said with a smile and turned around to reveal the treasure chest held by tie an behind him.


    Yang Siqi couldn''t help breathing. He didn''t come to Chang''an city just for money. Now he offended Duan Lun, and there was only one way to ask for money. Unexpectedly, when he fell asleep and hit the pillow, the Mexican family sent the money to the door in person.


    "Please talk in detail." Yang Siqi immediately swallowed and spitted.


    Merton smiled and knew that this kind of business would surely succeed. According to historical records, Yang Siqi was later in the Ministry of work, but he was punished for corruption. How can such a wealth lover refuse the temptation of thousands of gold.


    On a simple table, tie an put the treasure chest heavily on the table, while at the other end of the table, Yang Siqi tightened the puppet in his hand.


    With a wave of his hand, Merton opened the treasure chest when the iron settled down, and saw a whole box filled with silver ingots.


    "Silver! You said it was worth thousands of gold? How did it become silver." Yang Siqi jumped up as if he had received an insult.


    "Daughter, do you dare to think?" iron shouted when he settled down. His iron tower like figure was very oppressive, which immediately made Yang Siqi tremble in his heart.


    Merton waved his hand, stopped Tie''an, and explained, "if this thing is owned by the Mojia village alone, it''s not too valuable. But if you can ensure that this ink technology is owned exclusively by the Mojia village, the Mojia village will never spread, and Momou will immediately offer it."


    Yang Siqi immediately smiled bitterly. How can he guarantee that there are two dolls in the world, one of which is already in the palace. It''s natural and safe, but what about him? How can he resist if he is forced by dignitaries.


    "So Mo designed two schemes for you, one of which is that you sell the puppet secret skills to Mojia village and resell them to others at the same time. In this case, the ink skills will be worth up to 100 Guan copper coins. The other is that you sell the puppet secret skills to Mojia village and promise not to resell them to others for at least three years, then the ink skills will be worth 1000 liang of silver." Merton said.


    Yang Siqi smiled bitterly and directly considered all the situations for Yang Siqi. There was too little Baiguan copper money. Naturally, he didn''t want to, so he had to choose a thousand liang of silver. "


    Merton smiled. Knowing that Yang Siqi must have agreed, he got up and waved to tie an. Tie an pushed the treasure chest forward, grabbed the puppet doll in front of Yang Siqi and followed Merton behind him.


    Merton did not ask about the puppet''s mechanism skills, because as long as the Mojia village can get the puppet doll, all the mechanism skills in it are not a secret to the Mojia village.

 Chapter 351

    The next morning, Nancheng upstairs.


    Merton stood on the city tower, watched the four-wheel carriages driving out of Chang''an City, and kept looking for this in the crowd?


    "Young master! As expected, the man surnamed Yang is ready to leave Chang''an city immediately after he gets the money," said Tie''an, pointing to one of the brand-new four-wheel carriages.


    According to the Mohist news report, Yang Siqi immediately wrote his resignation to the Ministry of work after he received 1000 liang of silver. Yang Siqi is very sensitive in the Ministry of work at the moment. After writing his resignation, the Ministry of work did not retain him, but directly approved it. After Yang Siqi resigned from the Ministry of work, he immediately bought a carriage from the Mohist village and was about to leave Chang''an city.


    Merton sighed slightly. Although he guessed that Yang Siqi was leaving Chang''an City, when he really saw this scene, his heart was full of five flavors.


    Mohist school has not reached this point. When Yang Siqi appeared in Chang''an City and challenged Mohist village, in fact, his joy was more than anger. Mohist school has not reached this point. He originally thought that Mohist village was fighting alone and Mohist village was the last stronghold of Mohist school. However, he suddenly appeared another branch of Mohist village. How can he not be surprised.


    However, things are changeable, but this man has embarked on the opposite of Mojia village.


    "If you come to Mojia village first and are both children of Mojia, how can Mojia village not strongly support Deng Ling''s family." Merton sighed.


    "This man has evil intentions. Even if the Mojia village helps him, it will become a disaster in the future. The Mojia is corrupted by such villains." tie an said angrily.


    Merton nodded. What tiean said is indeed reasonable. The two veins have already become strangers. Maybe this ending is the best result.


    "Has the puppet doll been sent to Mojia village?" Merton asked, looking at the fading carriage.


    "It was delivered yesterday. The whole village was a sensation. They all put down their work and went to watch and said..." tie an looked at Merton and suddenly stopped.


    "Say what?" Murton frowned.


    Tie an endured a smile, blushed and said, "masters say this is the most cost-effective business the young master has done."


    Merton suddenly had a black line on his face.


    Although Merton spent a lot of money before, it was worth the money, but it had nothing to do with the Mohist industry. This time, Merton spent 1000 liang of silver to buy the puppet puppet representing Deng Ling''s ink. That was the highest ink technology of Deng Ling''s family. It was a technological leap for the Mohist village. It could be said to be one of the most cost-effective businesses.


    "If only they were happy!" Merton said helplessly.


    Yang Siqi has gone away, and the internal worries of the Mohists have been solved. Merton is about to go down the city tower when he is suddenly attracted by a voice of dispute.


    "Sorry, your carriage can''t enter Chang''an city." under the south gate, a guard of the South Gate stopped a four-wheel carriage outside Chang''an city.


    "Why can''t my four-wheel carriage get in? Other people''s four-wheel carriages can." the owner was a man in yellow in his thirties, dissatisfied.


    The carriage, Merton''s heart moved, hurried forward and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    When the guards of the South Gate saw that it was Merton, they often met Merton at the south gate. Naturally, they knew the name of the Mohist School and quickly saluted: "Lord Mo, this man''s four wheeled carriage uses steel wheels, which is too bad for the road. A few days ago, Zhuque street was renovated. Many bricks were destroyed by such steel wheels. The county Lord has ordered that all iron wheeled carriages are not allowed to enter Chang''an city."


    Merton nodded. The steel wheel was too hard and badly worn. Not to mention the earth road, even the brick road could not withstand the wear of the steel wheel.


    "It''s really wise of the county Lord to do this!" Merton nodded. He didn''t expect that Su Luosheng had such insight and made measures in advance.


    Merton turned to the man in yellow and said, "Mojia village has long stated that all four wheeled carriages purchased in Mojia village can be replaced with new wheels for free. You only need to go to the ink technology exhibition a mile away from the south of the city to replace them for free." Merton pointed to the south of the city and said.


    The new wheel steel ring in Mojia village is covered with a layer of wooden ring, which greatly reduces the damage to the turning road. Moreover, after the wooden ring is broken, it can be replaced to make the wheel more durable. Naturally, such wheels are not prohibited in Chang''an city.


    The man in yellow immediately blushed, hesitated, and his eyes drifted.


    Seeing this, the gate guard sneered and said, "Lord Mo''s kindness is in vain. I''m afraid he didn''t buy a carriage in Mojia village!"


    The man in yellow was ashamed and said, "Lord, forgive me. The villain was blinded by lard for a while and was greedy for cheap. He sold the public loser''s four-wheel carriage."


    The man in yellow regretted it now. In order to be cheap, he didn''t expect that the carriage of the public loser could not compare with the Mojia village except that it was the same as the Mojia village in appearance. On the contrary, there were many troubles later. What''s more embarrassing, Li Gui met Li Kui, bought a four-wheel carriage modeled after the Mojia village, and even met the Mojia Zi.


    Merton is also embarrassed. In order to increase sales, the public loser directly imitates the four-wheel carriage of Mojia village, and the appearance and workmanship are almost the same as that of Mojia village.


    However, each carriage in Mojia village has a unique number, and skilled Mojia children can certainly distinguish it, but Merton, the shopkeeper, can''t distinguish between his own carriage and imitation carriage.


    Merton couldn''t laugh or cry. He waved his hand and said, "it doesn''t matter if it''s not the four-wheel carriage in Mojia village. Mojia village implements the activity of replacing the old with the new. After you arrive at the ink technology exhibition, you only need to add a little money to change the wheels into the new wheels in Mojia village."


    "Thank you, Lord Mo!" the man in yellow saluted again and again.


    This car is the hope of his family. If they lose the business of Chang''an City, their whole family will drink in the northwest. Merton not only didn''t blame him for buying a imitation car, but took the initiative to solve the problem for him. How can he not be ashamed of his mind.


    The man in yellow turned around and headed for the ink technology exhibition along the blue brick road. Among the many carriages in and out of the city gate, many carriages immediately turned around and ran towards the ink technology exhibition. Obviously, they were also the carriages of the public losers.


    "I admire your benevolence and righteousness!" the gate guard said with a look of worship.


    Merton said: "although the four-wheel carriage was not initiated by Mohism, it rose because of Mohism. Mohism pursues universal love rather than attack. How can we sit and watch this person fall into trouble and ignore it."


    The activity of exchanging the old for the new is very common in later generations. It is better to send charcoal in the snow than to add icing on the cake. Changing the wheel is just a small effort for the Mohists. Since this move can buy people''s hearts and advertise for the Mohist village, how can Merton miss such an opportunity.


    Moreover, Su Luosheng can order the steel wheeled carriage to be prohibited from entering Chang''an City, but the official road in the south of the city has been contracted to Mojia village for ten years. Mojia village has no right to prohibit the steel wheeled carriage from driving on the brick road in the south of the city. This is of great benefit to Mojia village.

 Chapter 352

    "You are a public loser!"


    In front of a shop in Dongshi, Constable Cao knocked on the door with several yamen servants.


    The public loser Hong was stunned when he heard the speech, greeted him, nodded and said, "we are the children of the public loser. I don''t know what instructions this superior has."


    "According to the order of the county magistrate, there are great fire hazards in the smelting industry in the East and West cities. The county magistrate has written to the imperial court that all industries with great fire hazards will move to the southeast Industrial Park, and Gongshu''s iron smelting business will also be among them. This is the imperial court''s notice, and you can move out within three months!" Constable Cao said and handed the notice to Gongshu Hong.


    "Move away!" Gongshu Hong was stunned.


    The plan of Chang''an City Industrial Park has already spread in the eastern and western cities. Strictly speaking, moving to the industrial park is indeed a lot of benefits. Moreover, selling your shops in the eastern and western cities can not only obtain several times the land and plants, but also make a lot of money.


    And I heard that the industrial park has built brick roads with convenient transportation, which is no worse than that in Chang''an city!


    However, the problem is that the public losers'' shops belong to the Taiyuan Wang family, which are only used by the public losers, not owned by the public losers themselves. In this way, if public losers want to move to the industrial park, they must pay their own money, which is not a small amount.


    This is not over. As soon as Constable Cao left, the public loser rushed in and said loudly, "brother, it''s bad. The guards at the gates of Chang''an City have banned the public loser''s four-wheel carriage from entering Chang''an city."


    "Ah, what''s the matter?" Gongshu Hong was surprised and asked quickly.


    "According to the city gate guard, this is the order of the county magistrate. If the public loser''s four-wheel carriage damages the brick road too much, it is forbidden to carry out the process of the public loser''s four-wheel carriage." the public loser gasped.


    "What about the carriage of the Mohist family?" Gongshu Hong asked hurriedly.


    The public transport wheel said, "brother, you forget that the Mohists announced that all the four-wheel carriages in the Mohist village would be replaced with new wheels for free as early as January."


    "New wheel?" Gongshu Hong suddenly realized that Merton had long expected today''s situation.


    Gongshu Hong was in a mess. He didn''t expect that Gongshu family was hit hard one after another. First, the iron smelting business was relocated, and then there was a problem with the four-wheel carriage. The two pillar businesses of Gongshu family were devastated at the same time.


    Among the four wheeled carriages, the most core technologies are wheels and shock absorption technology. Public losers can''t compete with Mojia village in these two points. In addition, after the emergence of brick road, the gap between the two countries is even greater. Brick road is a perfect combination of four-wheel carriages in Mojia village, strong, fast and heavy.


    In contrast, the shortcomings of the public loser''s four-wheel carriage with small load suddenly sank out, and the sales volume directly decreased greatly.


    In particular, after Mojia village directly launched free wheel replacement, the reputation of the public loser''s four-wheel carriage fell to the freezing point. This heavy blow from Chang''an County government directly drove the public loser to the edge of the cliff.


    "Brother, why don''t we change the wheels for free? It''s a big deal to return the replaced wheels to the furnace for forging. It takes some effort at most." the public transport wheel said angrily.


    Gongshu Hong said with a bitter smile, "it''s not that I don''t want to change the wheels for the sold carriage, but that I can''t do anything. My Gongshu family can''t make new wheels."


    "Can''t make it?" the public loser was suddenly dumbfounded. I couldn''t believe it and said, "even big brother can''t make it."


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and revealed a trace of congealing: "the new wheel has a steel ring inside and a wooden ring outside. The most difficult thing is that the two tightly fix the wooden ring and iron ring together. The Mojia village adopts a new structure."


    "New structure?" the public transport wheel was shocked.


    Gongshu Hong took out an iron bar with long fingers. There was a hexagonal iron block at both ends of the iron bar and handed it to Gongshu wheel.


    "Is this?" the public transport wheel couldn''t help asking when looking at this strange thing.


    "Mohists call it a screw. The top of one end can rotate, which is called a nut. After they are tightened hard, they can firmly fix the two objects together," Gong Shuhong explained.


    "Screw, what a strange name." the public transport wheel curiously took out a screw and nut to align them together, which can be tightly sewn together, and can freely adjust the spacing according to the size of the object. As an expert craftsman, the public transport wheel immediately understood the great value of this object.


    "It is said that this is the Mexican family. After seeing the snail in summer, he was suddenly inspired and invented the screw according to the shape of the snail." Gong Shuhong said helplessly.


    The Gongshu wheel suddenly looked at the top of the screw, which was very close to the shape of the snail.


    "Mozi is really lucky. Since brother already knows the principle of screws, why can''t we make screws by ourselves!" the public loser frowned.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "although the principle of a small screw is simple, the wire drawing process is extremely complex. So far, only Mojia village can do it."


    The screw principle is broken at all, but the screw drawing skill is indeed an extremely accurate and high-end technology in this era. Public losers can only stare at it and can''t make screws. Naturally, they can''t imitate new wheels.


    The public transport wheel said angrily, "this is the Yang scheme of the Mohist school. Only the Mohist village in the whole Tang Dynasty can make new wheels, and the profits of the four-wheel carriage are not exclusive to the Mohist family."


    The news that the imperial court was going to build a large-scale brick road could not be concealed from these sharp businessmen. Everyone knew that the four wheeled carriage would surely usher in a rise. Many people were staring at this fat meat. As a result, it was found that Mojia village had an absolute advantage again because of a small screw.


    The public loser complained blindly, but he didn''t remember that the four-wheel carriage business was led by Mojia village. His public loser just imitated the four-wheel carriage of Mojia village, which made his fortune.


    "So what? Who makes me inferior? Hateful. If you give me enough time, it''s not difficult to conquer the screws. Unfortunately, I''m afraid the public loser can''t wait until that time." public loser Hong said helplessly and was immediately discouraged. At first, he entered Chang''an City in high spirits, but now he is struggling.


    "Otherwise, I''ll agree to the conditions of those two families." the public loser said, gritting his teeth. Naturally, what he said was the changsun family and the Taiyuan Wang family.


    Hearing this, Gongshu Hong immediately struggled and said, "if you promise the conditions of their two families, you will not become their vassal, and Gongshu family is one of the hundreds of schools. If so, how can you face your ancestors?"


    Most of the profits earned by all the businesses of Gongshu family have been taken away by the king''s family and Gongsun''s family in Taiyuan. Since the emergence of brick road, how can the changsun family and Wang''s family not be aware of the huge potential of the four-wheel carriage, so they intend to swallow the four-wheel carriage business of Gongshu family and let Gongshu family become its vassal completely.


    The public losers are also arrogant. How can they promise? The two sides talk about collapse. The public losers are suffering from internal and external troubles at the moment.


    "Father, Mojia village launched the activity of exchanging the old for the new and replacing the new wheels for all carriages at a low price." Gongshu Hao Ran in and broke out an amazing news.

 Chapter 353

    "Old for new?"


    Gongshuhong couldn''t help staying for a long time after hearing gongshuhao''s careful explanation.


    "What a cruel move of the Mo family?" the public loser''s face changed.


    "Second uncle, mojiazi is helping us!" Gongshu Hao didn''t understand.


    The public transport wheel said angrily, "help us? In my opinion, the Mo family is going to exchange the old for the new and seize the source of four-wheel carriages of my public transport family."


    Gongshu understands that once the merchants who buy Gongshu''s carriage accept the kindness of Mojia village, they will be grateful to Mojia village. In this way, Gongshu''s four-wheel carriage business will have fewer and fewer customers.


    Gongshu Hong sighed: "no matter what the purpose of the Mo family is, it has finally solved a difficult problem of Gongshu family."


    The wheel problem has always been a big problem for public losers. If it can''t be solved, it will be like a bleeding wound, which will certainly ruin the reputation of public losers.


    Although Merton''s move further expanded the influence of Mojia village and eroded the public loser''s four-wheel carriage market, on the whole, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages for the public losers.


    "The Mohist family!" the public losers were suddenly full of emotion. They didn''t know whether to hate or thank Mohist


    "Master, Mozi is visiting!" a son of a public loser came to report.


    "Mojiazi!" Gongshu Hong suddenly got up and said that Cao Cao had just discussed mojiazi, and the other party appeared at the door of Gongshu''s house.


    "What''s he doing here? Is he coming to see our jokes, or is he trying to repay us with gratitude?" the public loser said angrily.


    Gongshu Hong said in a deep voice, "no matter what the purpose of Mohist school is, since he visits with courtesy, we will naturally treat him with courtesy."


    "Come, open the middle door to meet." Gongshu Hong suddenly got up and went to meet him.


    Gongshuhong didn''t see him behind him. Gongshuhao''s face flushed with excitement. Mojiazi was similar to his age, but he made amazing events many times, and had long become the idol of gongshuhao.


    If it had not been for the failure of the public losers and the Mohists, public loser Hao would have learned from the Mohists.


    With a squeak, the middle door of the public loser''s residence was wide open, two rows of public loser''s children filed out, and three people came out of the public loser''s wheel in the middle.


    "When the famous Mohist came to visit, the public loser was brilliant!" the public loser Hong laughed and said happily.


    "Public losers and Mohists all started with work. It''s not too much to say that they are fellow disciples. The ancestor of public losers, the public loser class, has made great achievements in his life and is also a person of worship of mo. today, he specially visited and paid a visit." Merton said.


    The Gongshu class is the founder of craftsmen. It is reasonable for Merton to come to visit.


    "Our ancestors would be delighted to learn that Mohist sages are so popular. Please!" Gong Shuhong said.


    In front of the ancestral statue of the public defeat class, Merton respectfully offered three incense sticks and solemnly made a big gift according to the unique etiquette of all schools of thought.


    No matter what the relationship between the public loser and the Mohist school is, the contribution of the public loser class to China is well known all over the world. It is reasonable for Merton to come forward and salute.


    Seeing that Merton respected the public loser class so much, the hostility in the hearts of all the public losers immediately alleviated a lot.


    Back in the hall, the two sides took their seats. Gongshuhao served as the waiter himself, serving tea and water before and after running.


    Gongshuhong took the lead in bowing his hands and said, "the Mohist School ignores the past grievances and trades the old for the new for the gongshujia''s four-wheel carriage. Gongshujia thanks here."


    Gongshu Hong knows that Mojia village doesn''t care about Gongshu''s carriage at all. In this way, Gongshu''s losses will be even greater.


    "We, the makers of cars, are ordinary families. A four-wheel carriage is where a family lives. How can the Mohist family watch the people''s livelihood cut off and starve." Merton waved his hand and said.


    "Anyway, Gongshu really owes the Mohist family a favor this time, and will be sent in the future." Gongshu Hong said solemnly.


    "Not in the future, now!" Merton said with his trademark shyness.


    "Ah!" Gongshu Hong was stunned and looked at the mojiazi incomprehensibly. Is it really like what the Gongshu wheel said that the mojiazi came this time with grace.


    Gongshu Hong felt uneasy and said carefully, "I don''t know what the Mohist school has to do."


    Seeing this, Merton laughed and said, "don''t take the public loser seriously. Mo is just kidding. Recently, the Mohist family wants to do a business with the public loser."


    "A business?" Gong Shuhong said puzzled.


    Merton nodded, "a wagon business."


    The public loser Hong was shocked. The Mohist family really came to the door. The four-wheel carriage was really the public loser''s fault. At the moment, it deserved to be criticized by the Mohist family.


    Gongshu Hong gritted his teeth and said, "imitating the four-wheel carriage in Mojia village is indeed a public loser. From now on, Gongshu will immediately stop the four-wheel carriage business."


    "Home owner!" all the sons of the public losers immediately lamented. The four wheeled carriage can be said to be the main source of profit for the public loser. Losing the four wheeled carriage is like breaking his arm.


    "No, no, no!" Merton waved his hand again and again: "Mo didn''t ask the public loser to stop the carriage business, but wanted to order the public loser''s carriage."


    "What?" the public losers looked at Merton in confusion.


    Merton nodded and said, "to be exact, Mojia village is ready to customize a batch of carriage for public losers for a long time."


    "Carriage?" Gong Shuhong said puzzled. "As far as I know, I''m afraid these carpentry jobs can''t defeat the Mohist school!"


    It''s more than difficult to defeat the Mohist village. If the Mohist village doesn''t want to do it, as long as the news is released in Chang''an City, a large number of carpenters will rush to build it for the Mohist. How can the Mohist son fall on the public loser.


    Merton nodded and said, "it''s really not difficult for the Mohists, but we''re going to build a batch of the top four-wheel cars. The materials we choose are the best. Of course, we should use the best carpentry. Who in the world can have the carpentry of the father of craftsmen and the loser?"


    After Merton saw the four wheeled carriage of the public loser, he immediately saw the gap in carpentry.


    It has to be said that Gongshu family does have the unique capital in carpentry. All Gongshu family''s four-wheel carriages use tenon and tenon structure, and the workmanship quality is first-class. This is also the reason why Gongshu family can snatch a four-wheel carriage business in the hands of Mohist family.


    Most of the carpenters in Mojia village use assembly line production. Although the price is cheap, it is very suitable for four-wheel trucks and four-wheel buses. However, if it is placed on the four-wheel carriages used by the rich and powerful, it is a little incompatible.


    Of course, there are also skilled craftsmen in Mojia village who are not inferior to gongshuhong, but each of them undertakes more important tasks and has no energy to focus on manufacturing four-wheel carriages.


    No way, Merton had to think of the outsourcing business of future generations, and the best partner of Mojia village is the public loser.

 Chapter 354

    "Making carriages for Mojia village?" Gongshu Hong hesitated,


    Before, the public loser Hong would have refused without hesitation, but now the public loser is approaching the time when the oil is dry and the lamp is dry. At this time, it is a god-given opportunity to get an order from Mojia village and have a chance to breathe. It would be too hypocritical to refuse at this time.


    "A thousand!"


    Merton also offered a unit price that the public loser could not refuse.


    "This is only the first batch, with good sales in the future. Naturally, there are follow-up orders. As far as I know, the public losers are in a bad situation now. I believe the orders of Mojia village will certainly enable the public losers to get through this." Merton threw out another bait.


    The public loser suddenly breathed. With such a large order, the public loser must be able to make a lot of profits. It can be said that the life-saving medicine is not too much for the public loser in trouble.


    "Why should Mohism help the public losers? Mohism is not afraid that the public losers will avoid the disaster and threaten the status of Mohism in the future." Gongshu Hong asked calmly instead of being eager to agree.


    Merton smiled and said, "Mencius said: if there are no foreign enemies in the country, they will die forever, so you are lucky to lose, because the Mojia village needs an opponent."


    Mohist revival has been extremely sensitive. If the Mohist monopolist Datang''s advanced technology, it will certainly be suspected. If the Mohist loses its opponent, it will certainly lose the driving force to move forward.


    Helping public losers get through this can not only share the suspicion of Mohism, but also become the spur and driving force of Mohism.


    "You are not afraid that the public loser will defeat the Mohist School in the future!" the public loser felt despised and said angrily.


    "Mohism is never afraid of any opponent," Morton said confidently.


    "However, if the public losers want to be the opponents of Mohism, they have to work harder. As far as I know, since the imperial court prepared to build brick roads, at least four wagons workshops have been established in Chang''an city. As for Luoyang City, I don''t know." Merton said with a smile.


    With the demonstration of the official road in the south of the city and the news that the imperial court is about to build a brick road, even an ordinary person knows that it is doomed for a four wheeled carriage to replace a two wheeled carriage.


    In this way, the four-wheel carriages needed by the whole country have gone to the sea. What a profit cake it will be. For a moment, the craftsmen who built the two-wheel carriages immediately became a hot commodity. Many businessmen wantonly solicited such carpenters and prepared to bite hard on the profits of the four-wheel carriages.


    "Four families! Luoyang and..." the public losers immediately screamed.


    Merton nodded, "it''s not like other cities."


    Public loser Hong was suddenly black faced. Before, only Mohists and public losers had the ability to build a four-wheel carriage. Rao was so. The public losers had been overwhelmed.


    It was not easy to see hope, but did not expect that the future situation would be more dangerous. The public losers not only continued to compete with other workshops under the shadow of Mohism.


    "Then how do they solve the wheel problem?" the public transport wheel frowned. Without new wheels, it was a joke to build a four-wheel carriage.


    "Most of them are going to use old-fashioned wooden wheels, but if they can afford high prices, Mojia village will also create a new wheel for them."


    Merton''s light words exploded in the ears of the public losers like a thunder.


    Gongshu Hong looked at Merton in disbelief and said tremblingly, "is Mojia village willing to sell wheels?"


    Merton looked at Gongshu Hong like a fool and said, "Mohism is an open Mohism. As long as it is not the core secret of Mohism village, it will generally be sold."


    The public losers immediately regretted. Before that, Mohism and public losers were incompatible. Naturally, they couldn''t think of buying the wheels of Mohist village. If they could buy the wheels of Mohist village, public losers would spend all their energy on building a four-wheel carriage. Where could they fall into such a difficult situation.


    "Mohism is a good means." Gongshu Hong said with a bitter smile.


    He immediately saw the Mohist''s plan. The Mohist village alone could not eat such a huge four-wheel carriage market. In that case, the Mohist simply let go of the four-wheel carriage market, used the new wheels to indirectly control the whole four-wheel carriage market, and easily bit the one with the largest profit.


    "This is a win-win situation. Mojia village provides wheels and shock absorber equipment. Other workshops can build advanced carriages. Everyone can benefit from division of labor and cooperation." Merton said without hesitation.


    "Besides, isn''t the cooperation between Mohists and public losers also win-win?" Merton pointed out.


    "Win win!"


    Gongshu Hong took a deep breath and said, "the public loser of this business took it. I don''t know what kind of carriage the Mohists want."


    "Tie an, leave my carriage with a deposit in it!"


    Merton smiled, left the carriage, led the horses and walked out of the door of the public loser''s house.


    After seeing off Merton, the public losers rushed to Merton''s car and opened the car. Sure enough, they saw a box of silver in it.


    However, the public losers were not moved. Instead, they focused on Merton''s car one by one.


    Merton''s car is carefully built by the skilled craftsmen of Mojia village. Its workmanship and design are extremely advanced. The tenon and mortise structure of its carriage has been greatly praised by Gongshu Hongdu. The wheels have also been replaced with new wheels. The screw structure and tenon and mortise structure are used together, which not only does not conflict, but is a perfect fit.


    When the public losers saw this, they couldn''t help sighing. Seeing the skills of Mohism, they immediately knew that the public losers had lost unjustly.


    In the eyes of the public transport wheel, he said fiercely: "it is said that the Mo family offered 1000 liang of silver to buy the puppet doll of Deng Ling''s ink and crack the mechanism of Deng Ling''s ink. Why don''t we follow the Mo family''s move and use the carriage of Mo family to crack the car making technology of Mo family village."


    As soon as the public loser finished, all the children of the public loser looked at him like fools.


    "In terms of mortise and tenon technology alone, my public loser will not lose to others. The most important screw technology and shock absorption technology of the carriage of Mohism are all in the hands of Mohism. We just know how to do it. There''s nothing we can do, because we can''t make it at all. Do you think Mohism can safely leave the carriage? Can''t you think of that?" said public loser Hong angrily.


    "Isn''t the carriage business of the public loser always subject to the Mohist school?" the public loser frowned.


    "No! I''m going to give up the carriage business of Gongshu family!" Gongshu Hongyu surprised humanity.


    "Big brother, you''re crazy!" the public loser was surprised.


    Other public losers'' children can''t believe looking at the public loser.


    Gongshu Hong solemnly shook his head and said, "if we can''t solve the shock absorber and new wheels, Gongshu family will never have an advantage in the four-wheel carriage. In that case, we should suspend Gongshu family''s four-wheel carriage business and give full play to Gongshu family''s advantages."


    "The advantage of the public loser?" they didn''t understand.


    "The Mo family has a very correct saying, that is, win-win. The carpenter of the public loser is unique in the world. If the public loser doesn''t, he will specially build the parts of the four-wheel carriage and sell them to the four-wheel carriage workshop. I believe that with the reputation and skills of the public loser, he will certainly have a place in the four-wheel carriage business." public loser Hong solemnly said.


    "When the public loser really controls the wheel shock absorption technology, it will be the day of the public loser''s comeback." the public loser Hong waved his fist.


    "The master of the house is wise!" a group of public losers, convinced.


    In fact, there is another important reason hidden in the bottom of my heart. Only by giving up the four-wheel carriage business can the public losers take the opportunity to get rid of the control of the Wang family and the Chang Sun family and be truly independent.


    As the pride of all schools of thought, how could he make the loser a vassal of others.

 Chapter 355

    "Mohist... Lord MOH, please stay!"


    Merton had just walked out of the door of the public loser''s house, but he heard a clear call behind him.


    "The youth of the public loser?" Merton looked intently. He saw that he was the youth who served tea and poured water at the public loser''s house before. Merton was also quite impressed with him.


    "I''m Gongshu Hao! I''ve seen Lord Mo!" Gongshu Hao saluted stiffly.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "you and I are the same age and are the children of all schools. You can match our martial brothers."


    Haodun blushed excitedly when he lost the public game and said, "elder martial brother Mo!"


    "Junior brother Gongshu, you call me brother. I don''t know what''s important." Merton asked.


    Gongshu Hao hesitated for a while, shyly took out a black object from behind and said, "elder martial brother is a member of the mechanism, and younger martial brother adores it. Younger brother, there is an object here. Please give me some advice?"


    "Lock?" Merton took a look and said in surprise.


    The locks handed over by gongshuhao are very different from those of this era, but very similar to those of later generations, which makes Merton interested.


    "Elder martial brother is really smart. I think my Datang lock is really... Ugly! I improved it, but the elder martial brothers laughed at my whimsical." Gong Shuhao said in distress.


    Merton looked at the lock in his hand, nodded and said, "your elder martial brother is right. You are really whimsical."


    Public loser Hao''s hopeful eyes suddenly darkened and looked dejected.


    "However, human beings can only make progress because of whimsical ideas. Human beings are exposed to the sun and wind, whimsical and build houses. After having a house, in order to ensure the safety of their property, they are whimsical and invent locks. Your locks are really beautiful, but they ignore the most important role of locks." Merton''s conversation turned a corner.


    "The most important role?" gongshuhao thought a little and suddenly said, "safety! The biggest role of lock is safety."


    Merton nodded solemnly.


    "The first task of a lock is to lock the door, and the locks on the market in Datang are difficult for ordinary people, which is naturally no problem, but even ordinary snitch are difficult to resist. If you can make more sophisticated locks, even snitch can''t help it, and it will be very popular."


    "More precise lock!" public loser Hao immediately thought.


    Merton said: "what kind of lock is the safest? If it is a lock placed outside the door, it can be broken even if it is precise. If we dig a slot in the door and hide the lock body in the door, it will be beautiful and safe."


    Haodun was stunned when he lost the public game. He always thought he was whimsical, but no Mohist was more whimsical than himself.


    Merton continued: "in addition to safety, the lock also needs to be convenient. After I go home at night, I always use the door bolt to hold the door to ensure safety. Wouldn''t it be better to add the function of insurance to the lock?"


    Gongshuhao quickly took out a pencil and wrote down all Merton''s ideas.


    "Locks have different uses. Some are used to lock doors and some are used to lock items. In my opinion, each of the four wheeled carriages is expensive, and each of them is regarded as a treasure. If you can make locks to lock the four wheeled carriages, they must sell well." Merton told Gongshu Hao about all kinds of lock businesses in future generations one by one.


    When he lost the public game, he was as surprised as heaven and man, with a face of worship. After a long time, he left with satisfaction.


    "Master, do you understand the heart of loving talents?" Xu Jie''s voice came from behind.


    Merton nodded and said, "a very good seedling."


    "It''s his honor to get the guidance from his boss." Xu Jie looked at the young figure away with envy, but he knew how valuable Merton''s guidance was.


    "Come on, go to the west gate!"


    It was only a small episode when he met public loser Hao. Merton didn''t take it to heart, but set foot on the standby carriage already prepared.


    Xu Jie followed, and tie an consciously sat in the position of the coachman and acted as the coachman.


    "Drive!"


    With a soft drink from tiean, the carriage started slowly.


    "Young master, the public loser promised the conditions of the Mohist family?" Xu Jie asked after getting on the bus.


    Merton said confidently, "if you don''t accept the Mohist order, the public loser can only turn to the Wang family and the changsun family. Both of them eat people and don''t spit bones. They must want to take this to annex the public loser. The public loser has no way out, and he will naturally agree."


    Xu Jie loosened his breath: "in this way, since the public loser accepts the order of Mohism, it will inevitably need a lot of people to complete it, and its own four-wheel carriage business will certainly stagnate."


    However, Xu Jie did not expect that gongshuhong should be so decisive. He directly gave up the loser''s own four-wheel carriage business and embarked on the road of parts manufacturer.


    "In this way, the public losers will not pose a threat to Mojia village in a short time, and their alliance with Wang''s parent Sun family will naturally break down." Merton smiled.


    Although Merton was not proficient in vertical and horizontal skills, he still knew this truth. Among the three alliances, only the public loser is the biggest weakness.


    "But young master, you really want to subcontract the carriage business!" Xu Jie said painfully. In this way, the profits of the carriage in Mojia village will certainly be a lot.


    Merton shook his head and said, "not only the carriage, but other non core businesses in Mojia village still adopt this method. Division of labor and cooperation is the general trend. As long as we master the core technology, Mojia village can be invincible."


    Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain, and those who do not seek the world are not enough to seek a moment. The market for four-wheel carriages is so huge. If everything is taken care of by Mojia village, how many carriages can Mojia village produce alone? "


    "Young master is wise!" Xu Jie immediately admires.


    While he was still haggling over some profits, Merton had begun to layout the country.


    The carriage went all the way west and soon came to the west gate.


    Outside the west gate, the wind was howling and the temperature dropped sharply. As soon as Merton got off the bus, he was full of energy.


    "It''s going to snow!" Merton felt the biting cold wind blowing in his face.


    "Young master, it''s windy outside. If I don''t, I''ll go back!" Xu Jie couldn''t help persuading him.


    Merton breathed a white breath and was soon dispersed in the wind. He shook his head and said, "according to the news passed by the children of the Mohists, they should arrive today."


    At the moment, a large snowflake suddenly fell from the air, and then the sky suddenly turned into a vast expanse of white.


    Amid the snow mixed with the strong wind, a carriage with the Mohist logo finally rushed to the west gate in the face of the strong wind.


    Mo Si jumped down from the carriage. At the first sight of Merton standing in the wind, he was excited and fell to the ground.


    "Young master! We will deliver the cottonseed safely without failing our mission."


    Merton opened the carriage and was ecstatic when he saw a carriage full of familiar cottonseed.


    After the Tuyuhun rebellion, all trade routes were cut off. In order to avoid long dreams, Merton directly sent Mo Si to Longyou, peeled cotton seeds on the spot and sent them quickly.


    Finally, in the coldest time, a warm fire was finally sent.


    Looking at the bleak pedestrians in the wind and snow, Merton secretly vowed that this would be the last cold winter of the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 356

    "Mo boy, I heard that cottonseed has been delivered."


    Soon after Merton returned to the house with a full truck of cottonseed, Su Lingnong heard the news,


    As a big farmer, he naturally knew the value of cotton. After hearing the news, he rushed over immediately.


    Merton said with a smile, "don''t worry, Lord su. The cottonseed has already been put into the Mexican house warehouse. It''s safe."


    "If I can''t witness such a precious thing with my own eyes, how can I be reconciled." Su Lingnong asked impatiently.


    Merton had no choice but to lead Su Lingnong to the warehouse of the ink house immediately.


    "Good! Good!"


    In the storehouse of Mo mansion, Su Lingnong looked at a cart full of cotton seeds with satisfaction and carefully touched the hairy cotton seeds with his hand, which was a heavy sigh of relief.


    "With so many cottonseeds, within three or five years, cotton will certainly be able to be popularized in Datang," Su Lingnong said happily.


    Cottonseed is not like spinach seed. There is only a small handful. If you want to promote so many cottonseeds, you can certainly save a few years.


    "It''s also thanks to Mo Si, who made trouble and cut off the road to the western regions. In order to ensure the safety of cottonseed, Mo Si directly hired people to peel the cottonseed on the spot, then loaded it on a fast horse and loaded it on a detour. Only then did he send the cottonseed to the pass." Merton pointed to Mo Si, whose face was chapped with cold.


    "Young master, I''m flattered. It''s so cold that it can''t compare with the poverty of Mojia village." Mo Si said indifferently.


    Before, when Mojia village was poor, it was short of food and clothing, hungry and cold. What is this cold compared with now?


    "He is indeed a man. When the cotton experiment is successful, I will certainly ask the imperial court for a reward for you." Su Lingnong praised.


    "Ah!"


    Mo Si was hit by surprise like pie falling from the sky.


    "Thank you, Lord Su!" Merton kicked Mo Si, who was staying there. The reason why he asked Mo Si to do this was to find a way out for Mo Si.


    The other four of the five brothers who stayed in Mo''s house in Chang''an city had a way. Only Mo Si was still unfunded. Merton wanted to recommend Mo Si to big Si Nong, so as to get a family background.


    "Thank you, sir!" Mo Si giggled.


    "In the future, you will be responsible for collecting foreign seeds and giving them to Lord su. This is related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood, and it is a matter of benefiting the country and the people. You must not be slack at all," Merton ordered.


    "Please obey the young master''s orders!" Mo Si thanked. He knew that this time Merton was helping him.


    "Lord Su, this is the season and precautions for cotton planting in the western regions. The boy has consulted the local cotton farmers and some pest control. I believe it will be useful to Lord su." Mo Si took out a full piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Su Lingnong.


    "Good, good!" Su Lingnong nodded with satisfaction when he saw that Mo Si was very safe.


    "No, spinach seems to have forgotten to move into the room." Su Lingnong was suddenly shocked and said. He hurried to Mo mansion. In addition to looking at cotton seeds, another reason was that it was snowing heavily. He was afraid that spinach would be frozen, but he didn''t think of jumping on cotton seeds and forgetting about spinach.


    Spinach has very few seeds. When Merton cultivates vegetables, he directly adopts the pot mode, and each plant is carefully cared for.


    The yard where spinach was planted was nearby. Su Lingnong rushed into it. He saw that each basin in the yard had already been covered with a thick layer of snow, and only a few tender green leaves were exposed.


    "I''m afraid it''s all ruined!" Su Lingnong said heartily.


    From sowing to germination and then to growth, these spinach carried Su Lingnong''s efforts and took good care of them like his own children. When he saw that spinach was covered by heavy snow, we can imagine how much he regretted.


    Mo Si was at a loss and advised, "Lord Su, don''t you think these leaves are still intact?"


    Su Lingnong shook his head and said, "the vegetables are too delicate. They have just been frozen. Naturally, they can''t see anything! I''m afraid these leaves will wilt and rot and die after a night."


    In winter, everything turns yellow and no grass grows. This is the law of heaven and earth. In his experience of farming all his life, all the vegetables in Guanzhong will wilt directly once they are hit by frost, let alone resist the destruction of blizzard.


    Su Lingnong took good care of the spinach. Since the frost fell, he asked to move the spinach into the house every day to prevent the frost. Today, it was an oversight. Who could have thought it would snow during the day.


    "Why don''t we move these spinach into the house and see if we can save some." Mo Si thought of a way.


    "Then only a dead horse can be a living horse doctor." Su Lingnong said heartily.


    Merton looked at Mo Si, who was at a loss, and then looked at Su Lingnong with tears in his eyes. He said weakly, "didn''t the Persian businessman say that the heavy snow of this thing can grow?"


    "Ah!"


    Su Lingnong immediately looked at each other, and then found that he remembered that Merton had indeed said that he was misled by his years of experience and dared not take risks, which made him panic and lose his sense of propriety.


    "No one can mention today''s matter!" Su Lingnong was angry and quickly warned.


    Merton nodded quickly.


    Suddenly Su Lingnong raised his head and stared at Merton and said, "is the boy Mo deliberately watching my jokes?"


    Merton quickly apologized and said, "how can it be?"


    "Mo Si, it''s late. It''s not safe on the snowy road. Immediately tidy up the room for Lord su. If what Persian businessmen say is true, spinach will still grow well, and Mo Fu can report good news to the emperor."


    Merton''s voice has not yet fallen, and people have disappeared without a trace.


    "This little slick!" Su Lingnong laughed and scolded.


    "Lord Su, this way, please." Mo Si stretched out his hand.


    Su Lingnong shook his head and said, "no, I''ll live in this yard today."


    Su Lingnong often takes care of spinach in this yard. He has been very familiar with it for a long time. Besides, if he doesn''t personally confirm that spinach is carefree, how can he rest assured to report good news to the emperor.


    It snowed heavily all night.


    Overnight, the whole Guanzhong area was covered with snow and white.


    In the palace, Li Shimin still looked at the heavy snow and couldn''t help but be happy and said, "auspicious snow bodes well for a bumper year! There must be plenty of snow this year and a bumper harvest next year."


    "This is the auspicious luck from heaven. Your Majesty''s virtue in ruling and martial arts moves heaven. I am the blessing of Tang Dynasty!" pound said with a smile.


    "Auspicious?


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "the more auspicious things, the better. As long as you don''t stick a pheasant to your tail, it''s called auspicious."


    "Your Majesty is wise. How can those tricks deceive the emperor? Since the emperor banned the offering of auspicious omens, auspicious omens have been banned in our Tang Dynasty." pound complimented.


    At the beginning of Li Shimin''s accession to the throne, there were many auspicious omens everywhere. Li Shimin was so annoyed that he directly issued the "forbidden auspicious edict". In addition to the common auspicious omens such as long Qilin, other auspicious omens should not be exaggerated, and others should be banned. Since then, the wind of auspicious omen disappeared in the Zhenguan Dynasty.


    Suddenly a bodyguard came to report: "I inform your majesty that Lord Mo and big Si Nong jointly came to offer auspicious luck."

 Chapter 357

    Li Shimin''s face suddenly sank. He issued an imperial edict to prohibit auspicious omen. Merton and Su Lingnong committed a crime against the wind.


    "Let them come here. I want to see what tricks the Mohists want to play!"


    Li Shimin doesn''t mention Su Lingnong at all. Su Lingnong has been engaged in agriculture all his life. Naturally, he can''t think of these fancy intestines. It must be Merton''s idea. In Li Shimin''s mind, if Merton doesn''t make some moths, it won''t be Mohist.


    "Congratulations, your majesty!" Merton said as soon as he saw Li Shimin.


    "How happy is it? Can you two still find Kirin Phoenix?" Li Shimin''s face was not good.


    Morton immediately looked embarrassed and flattered: "the Kirin Phoenix is an immortal thing. How can you find it, but the thing you presented today is more precious than the Kirin Phoenix?"


    "More precious than immortal things!" Li Shimin did not believe.


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "what is the use of immortal things to the country and the people? However, this thing can benefit the people all over the world."


    When Merton finished, Su Lingnong immediately presented a flowerpot.


    The flowerpot is covered with thick snow. On the white snow, several green leaves are particularly dazzling.


    "Your Majesty, the spinach trial was successful," Su Lingnong said tremblingly.


    Li Shimin suddenly got up and looked at the spinach seed in surprise. He was even more excited than seeing the peerless treasure. I''m afraid this will be the most satisfactory auspicious luck he has received since he took the throne.


    "This dish can survive in ice and snow!" Li Shimin dared not believe.


    Although he knew that spinach could grow in winter, he was shocked to see spinach still growing in ice and snow.


    "It''s still alive after heavy snow. It can certainly be popularized in the north of Datang. From then on, there will be no worries about vegetables in the north of Datang in winter." Su Lingnong said firmly.


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. In this era, let alone ordinary people, it is said that the emperor, sun and nobles can''t eat green vegetables in winter. They can eat dry vegetables and pickles. It is already a top-grade family.


    Although there are some hot springs in the royal family, which can cultivate a little green vegetables, Rao is so. There are still many monks and few porridge, which is not enough for everyone in the palace.


    Li Shimin looked at the emerald green spinach and immediately moved his index finger. He couldn''t help swallowing a mouthful of water: "can this thing be eaten? I don''t know how it tastes."


    Merton immediately beamed and said, "Your Majesty can rest assured that this is a rare delicacy. Whether it''s hot pot or fried with eggs, it''s a first-class delicacy..."


    Merton was enjoying what he was saying. Suddenly he noticed that the atmosphere was wrong. Su Lingnong was looking at himself with angry eyes and said gnashing his teeth: "when did you eat spinach? Do you know, this is the hope of the people in winter!"


    Su Lingnong pays more attention to spinach. He knows clearly that there are several spinach in the whole Mexican house. As far as he knows, the number of spinach has not decreased. How can he be exploited by the boy Merton.


    Merton immediately knew that he had exposed his stuffing and quickly explained: "don''t worry, Mr. Su, the boy just picked a leaf from each spinach, which doesn''t affect the growth of spinach."


    When winter comes, there are no vegetables to eat in Mofu. In particular, Merton from later generations can''t stand the days without vegetables. He secretly ate several times to satisfy his greed.


    "That won''t work!" Su Lingnong said angrily.


    "Well, well, Su Aiqing, Merton is naughty, but he also knows how to pick a leaf without damaging the spinach." Li Shimin gave Merton a hidden look while being kind to the mud.


    Merton immediately sighed and nodded helplessly. When he picked spinach leaves again in the future, I''m afraid he would have to give a share to Li Shimin.


    The emperor''s house is also short of green vegetables!


    "Besides offering spinach, Weichen and others also have one thing, that is, cottonseed has been transported to Mohu!" Merton said.


    "Cottonseed!" Li Shimin''s heart tightened.


    The arrival of cottonseed means that cotton can be planted next year. Li Shimin loves and hates cotton. Cotton is too good for Datang, but it has an impact on Datang''s monetary system. If you are not careful, it will certainly lead to great disaster.


    "Tell your majesty that once cottonseed is planted, cotton will surely be promoted rapidly in our Tang Dynasty. Please make plans for the silk business." Su Lingnong said anxiously.


    Li Shimin nodded solemnly and said, "the brick road from Chang''an city to Longyou is about to be built. My purpose of building the brick road is to defeat Tuyuhun and the silk."


    Merton nodded. Once the brick road was built, the road to the western regions must be several times more convenient, and the amount of silk transaction must be doubled.


    In this way, the impact of cotton on silk must be much lighter than expected.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Heavy snow,


    The first snow in seven years in Zhenguan was particularly heavy. It rained heavily for three consecutive days, and the snow on the roof was at least one foot thick.


    On the fourth day, the heavy snow had just stopped.


    "Thousands of mountain birds fly away, thousands of paths people disappear, lonely boats, coir hats, Weng, fishing alone for cold river snow."


    Because of the heavy snow these days, the Imperial College has been closed. Merton is so free. When he wakes up, it''s daybreak. He pushes open the door and sees the snow all over the yard. His poetry is very happy,


    "Good poem, Mo boy is so interested!" the bright voice of big Si Nong Su Lingnong came not surprisingly.


    "Oh!" it was Lord Su! " Merton was suddenly depressed.


    The thief did not fight for three years. Since Merton admitted stealing spinach leaves, Su Lingnong often came to Merton''s house, making Merton in his own house and being watched like a thief.


    "But Mo boy''s poem doesn''t fit the occasion." Su Lingnong suddenly shook his head and said.


    "Lord Su said that this poem is not suitable for the occasion." it is not suitable for the occasion! Merton was immediately angry. He dared to say that the famous poems he had specially copied were inappropriate.


    "It would have been fair if the trail of people had disappeared before, but now it''s different. I heard that the brick road in the south of the city is still full of business and pedestrians, even if it''s snowy!" Su Lingnong joked.


    A heavy snow made Chang''an city thoroughly see the advancement of brick road. The traffic in the whole Guanzhong area was blocked by heavy snow. However, one place was particularly conspicuous, that is, the official road in the south of the city.


    Every other mile, the Mohist family will hire several nearby villagers to clean up the snow. After three days of heavy snow, the snow on the official road in the south of the city is still clear.


    "If you lose a good poem, you can let people travel without worry. That''s not a loss." Merton laughed.


    Su Lingnong nodded and sighed: "brick roads are really eye openers. Ordinary official roads can''t be opened to traffic without ten and a half days and months from snow to snow. However, brick roads are different. As long as the snow is cleaned, they can be opened to traffic directly."


    This heavy snow made Chang''an City, from the imperial court to the people, clearly aware of the benefits of brick road, and admired Merton''s foresight one by one.


    Building brick roads was once again put on the imperial court''s agenda.

 Chapter 358

    Brick road in the south of the city.


    Four wheeled carriages were not affected at all, and there was an endless stream of goods.


    The thick snow has been removed, the roads are piled high on both sides, and several gray haired old men are doing the final finishing work.


    These old men are specially employed by Mojia village and are responsible for road sanitation every day. The price of 300 Wen a month is certainly not in the eyes of young men, but it is not a small number for old men.


    The whole brick road was quickly cleaned, and even a little ice was crushed by the coming and going carriages and turned into snow


    Now the whole Guanzhong area is blocked by heavy snow, and the brick road in the south of the city is still unimpeded, which adds a bit of prosperity.


    "Lord Mo built the brick road at the beginning, which was a sensation in the whole city. People don''t understand it. Now it''s only more than one month, and a heavy snow has completely corrected Lord Mo''s name." on a carriage, suluosheng and Merton sit opposite each other, feeling the smooth driving of the carriage on the brick road, they can''t help sighing.


    Merton immediately smiled bitterly. He didn''t understand. At that time, except that the Mojia village believed him unreservedly, the whole city called Merton a black sheep.


    "Fortunately, all this is not in vain! Brick roads will certainly be popular in Datang after the heavy snow. It will be ten times more convenient for me to travel in Datang in the future." Merton said.


    Suluosheng nodded. As an official, he was very clear that the most intolerable thing for a country was the disconnection of communication. Once the local government lost communication for a long time, it meant that the central government''s control over it was immediately reduced to the freezing point.


    The brick road just solves this problem. Whether it is covered by storm or snow, the brick road can still pass unimpeded.


    The heavy snow completely made Chang''an City blind and deaf. If there was nothing before, but with the official road in the south of the city as a contrast, the disadvantage of rammed earth brick road was immediately exposed.


    This does not count the economic value of brick roads. If you want to be rich, you should build roads first. Until today, suluosheng really understands this sentence.


    Today, suloxon and Merton will host a wealth feast caused by brick roads.


    Outside the ink technology exhibition.


    "Lord Su, young master!"


    As soon as the carriage stopped, Li Yi and Xu Jie met up.


    "Second uncle, has everyone come?" Merton asked after getting off the bus.


    Li Yi said with a smile, "don''t worry, young master. How can they miss such a good thing."


    Merton nodded and took the lead in walking towards the inking exhibition.


    "Lord Mo!"


    "Lord Su!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At the moment, in the ink technology exhibition, people gathered and saw the three of Merton coming, so they hurried to salute.


    These people stand on both sides of the road. On one side are the village heads of the villages on both sides of the brick road, while on the other side are businessmen who have contacts with Mojia village.


    Li Yi and Xu Jie went between the two sides and organized discipline.


    "Lord Su, please!" Merton invited.


    Merton and suluosheng walked together to the rostrum in the middle. Suluosheng spoke a few official words and gave the rostrum to Merton.


    As soon as Merton stopped, the whole audience was silent. One by one, they looked at Merton with complex eyes.


    Although Merton is only weak, his achievements make everyone present ashamed.


    In terms of village governance, Mojia village was still poor a year ago, but now it is not too much to say that it is the richest village in Guanzhong.


    The village heads can be said to have watched the rise of Mojia village step by step, and how can they not be touched when they look at their own village.


    In business, Mojia village has long been a model of Seiko manufacturing. All the things produced by Mojia village don''t worry about sales. One year''s commercial achievements are worth everyone''s life.


    Merton Lang said, "today''s invitation from Mojia village is another wealth to discuss with you."


    "Rich and noble!" the hearts of the people were shocked.


    Businessmen are very sensitive to these two words. They have heard a lot about Mohist''s means of turning stone into gold. Hearing Merton say so, they can''t help but shine their eyes.


    "Lord Mo, please tell me. We naturally believe in Lord Mo''s vision!"


    "Follow Lord Mo, who hasn''t made a fortune!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd was immediately excited.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction: "Mojia village is ready to further seek partners, including wood, iron ore, grain, medicinal materials, paper and food supplies."


    With the further development of Mojia village, it can be said that Mojia village is the most popular customer in Chang''an city. It is difficult to get the contract of Mojia village without getting rich.


    "Second, some industries in Mojia village will also be outsourced. As long as you think the price is reasonable, good and cheap, you can negotiate with Mojia village."


    "Outsourcing!"


    There was a commotion among the merchants,


    The outsourcing business of Mojia village has long been a sign. Before, Mojia village ordered Zhangjiazhuang''s Zhangjia turbid wine to brew a dull horse. Why is it not an outsourcing business?


    Recently, it came out that Mojia village outsourced the carriage of the four wheeled carriage to the public loser. Which merchant is not greedy for the outsourcing business of Mojia village? This is a super big order!


    "Third, Mojia village can even cooperate with you in ink technology. As long as the price is reasonable, Mojia village can even upgrade technology and improve equipment for you."


    Suddenly, more merchants were excited. It was not Mohist ink technology that Mohist village could achieve such great achievements. No one thought that Mohist village was willing to give up its right to dominate ink technology this time.


    Suluosheng''s eyes brightened and looked at Merton in surprise.


    "You can also buy the secret skills of steelmaking and wine making in Mojia village." a merchant suddenly shouted.


    After the rise of Mojia village, it has made public the secret skills of live fish, artificial incubation, red brick, and Quyuan plow and columbine. It can be imitated by craftsmen without Mojia village.


    Only the secret techniques of steelmaking and wine making are retained, which are the pillar businesses of Mojia village at present.


    Merton said with a smile: "if the industry of Mojia village is further upgraded in the future, it is not impossible to disclose these two secret skills."


    Although they were slightly disappointed, it was worthwhile to hear Merton relax.


    "But all this has a premise, that is, the Mojia village will give priority to the workshop cooperation of brick road in the south of the city." as soon as Merton''s voice fell, all the villages in the south of the city were ecstatic.


    In recent days, the land five miles south of Chang''an City has been sold out, but the land on both sides of the brick road five miles away is difficult to sell. Merton''s move must make the villages on both sides of the brick road overflow.


    If any industry wants to develop, it must be supported by many supporting industries. In Merton''s plan, he plans to support a large number of workshops between Mojia village and Chang''an city to form an industrial corridor as the cornerstone of the take-off of Mojia village.


    An iron merchant suddenly shouted, "why don''t we buy the land of Mojia village and follow Lord Mojia!"


    Many people suddenly felt that since they wanted to buy land, wouldn''t it be better to buy the land of Mojia village? In this way, they can not only follow Mojia village to make a fortune, but also please Mojia children.


    All the village heads were flustered. If so, there would be nothing else for them.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the land in Mojia village is limited and will not take out the land."


    The merchants were suddenly lost, but the village heads were relieved, and the villages near Mojia village were even more ecstatic.


    For a long time, only the land on both sides of the brick road near Chang''an city can buy a good price. However, now only because their village is close to Mojia village, its land value must soar.


    Land sales is one of them. So many workshops are built on the official road in the south of the city and close to their own village. In this way, their young and strong farmers can work to subsidize their livelihood. Over time, although their own village is not as good as Mojia village, it must be much richer than now.


    "Not only that, I have discussed with the county magistrate that a bus route will be opened between the south of the city and Mojia village, and a team of captors will be stationed on the official road in the south of the city. At the same time, the early warning system will be set up simultaneously." Merton threw out one good news after another.


    Su Luosheng immediately got up and said in a loud voice, "yes, as long as you abide by the law, this county can ensure your safety both inside and outside Chang''an city."


    Su Luosheng has done so much and is extremely willing. After hearing Merton''s industrial corridor plan, he was immediately conquered by Merton. It can be imagined that in the future, the official road in the south of the city will certainly be the second industrial park, which is a tax!


    In this way, the industrial upgrading of Mojia village, the merchants get the dual support of the county government and Mojia village, the villages on both sides of the official road are getting richer and richer, and the county government gets taxes. It can be said that both sides make a lot of profits.


    "Win win!"


    People couldn''t help thinking of the word spread from Mohism.

 Chapter 359

    The back door of Mo mansion.


    Merton surreptitiously poked out his head and was relieved to see that the back door was empty.


    He took a bulging package in his hand, slipped out of the back door, turned a corner and saw a four-wheel carriage. Pound was standing there smiling. Then he walked over.


    "Here! This is the spinach picked this time!" Merton reluctantly handed the package to pound.


    Since Merton last presented spinach as auspicious luck to Li Shimin, Merton''s history of picking spinach alone has long gone. Merton had to give Li Shimin a share every time.


    Pound took the package, bumped the weight, and frowned, "so little?"


    Merton said reluctantly, "you can''t pick any more. If you pick spinach again, you''ll be bald. It''s strange that big Si Nong doesn''t look for me at that time."


    According to the character of big Si Nong, let alone a leaf, he was distressed by anyone who touched these spinach. Merton was able to see the opportunity only when he saw that big Si Nong was away.


    Pound looked at Merton with a smile and said, "well, I don''t believe you didn''t intercept one in private."


    "How could this be possible? Spinach has only a few leaves, and the number of leaves that can be picked each time is limited." Merton immediately felt wronged and dissatisfied.


    "Well, why don''t we count the leaves?" pound said with a smile.


    Merton glared at pound, reluctantly turned back and went to the back door of the Mohist house, took out a small packet of spinach leaves and handed them to pound.


    Pound opened it and saw the green and fresh spinach leaves. He nodded with satisfaction.


    Merton said angrily, "next time, wait until after January. It can''t be earlier!"


    Pound raised his eyebrows and looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton helplessly explained: "winter has come. Although spinach can grow in winter, it grows very slowly. It is the limit after a month. If it comes to 39 days, it can''t be picked anyway."


    "But don''t worry, as long as this year, when this batch of spinach blooms and seeds, I won''t worry about vegetables in Datang winter."


    Pound nodded slowly and accepted Merton''s explanation.


    "Take good care of this thing, and your majesty will naturally reward you for your achievements in the future. Pound rarely smiled when he looked at the spinach in his hand.


    Looking at pound''s departure in a carriage, Merton swept away his grievances just now, sneaked back to the back door of the Mo mansion and took out a small packet of spinach again.


    "You have your Zhang Liangji, I have my wall ladder." Merton proudly threw away the spinach in his hand.


    Suddenly, a loud cry came from the ink house.


    "Merton, you black sheep." Su Lingnong''s angry voice came all the way from the ink house.


    Merton quickly ran away with his head in his arms. The reason why he was able to pick so many vegetable leaves this time was that he picked two leaves of many large spinach plants. No wonder Su Lingnong was so angry.


    Merton jumped into the carriage briskly and hurriedly said to tie an, "come on, go to the fish champion building."


    When winter comes, it is cold and freezing. This is the best season to eat hot pot. Since the launch of hot pot, the business of yuzhuangyuan building has been booming. It has put pressure on other restaurants in Chang''an City and won the whole Chang''an city.


    Merton made an appointment with Qin Huaiyu to eat hot pot this morning. How can he get less green vegetables.


    In the Tianzi No. 1 private room, Merton happily opened the door and proudly showed off: "brothers, look what I brought?"


    Before Morton stepped into the box, he saw Qin Huaiyu standing aside dejected, and a bad feeling rushed to his heart.


    Merton''s careful probe, suddenly a pair of thick hands slipped Merton and pulled him into the box.


    As soon as Merton looked up, he suddenly saw Cheng Yaojin''s big plank teeth.


    Cheng Yaojin grabbed the spinach from Merton and said with a smile: what grandpa Pang said is true. Merton is hiding it.


    Merton was surprised and suddenly turned his head. In the box, Li Shimin was sitting in the main seat, and pound, who left first than Merton, was serving behind the serious Li Shimin.


    "Didn''t you go back to the palace?" Merton said when he saw that pound had been cheated.


    Pound said expressionless, "I don''t need to go there in person to deliver vegetables."


    Merton suddenly realized that no wonder pound could assert that he must have green vegetables. It turned out that he had already learned that he was going to have hot pot with Qin Huaiyu today, but he didn''t expose himself at that time and was waiting for him at this time!


    Merton looked left and right. He didn''t see Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde.


    "Don''t look. They are on duty in the palace. Today it''s just Cheng Aiqing and me." Li Shimin said angrily.


    Merton felt a sigh in his heart. It seemed that he didn''t read the Yellow calendar today, but it fell into their hands.


    Merton glared at Chumo with hatred. It is conceivable that Chumo must have leaked the secret when Cheng Yaojin learned the news.


    Cheng lowered his head deeper at Merton.


    "I''ll say you''re so slippery. You dare to hide such delicious vegetables." Cheng Yaojin took out a spinach leaf and bit it into his mouth in three or two while accusing Merton of eating alone.


    Merton quickly smiled and said, "uncle is a hero in the world. Naturally, he drinks and eats meat. How can a little green vegetables come into your old man''s eyes.


    "I haven''t eaten green vegetables for two months. Now I want to eat green vegetables." Cheng Yaojin swallowed spinach in two or three times.


    Chumo felt so ashamed that he blushed with shame and almost put his head under the table.


    "Well, don''t complain. You can''t live without food today." Li Shimin is most annoyed by Cheng Yaojin''s crying for poverty, and the old man is still used to this move.


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly changed his face and said with a smile, "hot pot is famous in Chang''an City recently! I''ve heard of it for a long time!"


    "Someone serve!" Merton shouted.


    Soon, uncle Yu brought up the copper hot pot himself. In the central stove of the copper hot pot, the charcoal fire was booming. After a while, it was already sizzling and emitting an attractive fragrance.


    Then a plate of fresh ingredients came up, especially one of the cleaned spinach.


    The way of eating hot pot has long been heard in Chang''an city. Although Li Shimin met for the first time, there was no misunderstanding like Li Chengqian.


    Six people sat down and opened the disposable dishes and chopsticks in front of them. Looking at the boiling soup, they immediately moved their forefingers.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "although I haven''t tasted the delicacy of hot pot yet, it''s worth the trip to eat green vegetables today."


    Merton suddenly got up and said, "Your Majesty, wait a minute! To eat hot pot, green vegetables are valuable, but one ingredient is also essential."


    "Oh! Tell me!" Li Shimin said with great interest.


    "Beef!" Merton said as if on a pilgrimage.

 Chapter 360

    "Beef!"


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole private room atmosphere suddenly died down.


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly became gloomy. He looked at Merton without any expression and said in a dumb voice: "do you know how important cattle are to the Tang Dynasty? The imperial court has repeatedly ordered to prohibit the slaughter of farm cattle without permission. Even the imperial court can kill cattle only by offering sacrifices to heaven."


    Merton nodded and said, "one cow is enough for ten strong men. For rural areas, owning one cow is the standard of upper family. Moreover, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, if you kill a farm cow without permission, you will have a staff of 30, and you will be 500 miles, even worse..."


    Merton has recently studied the laws of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, he knows that cattle are the best labor force in this era, which is comparable to the weight of tractors in future generations. Every farmer regards his cattle as his life, and even the government registers the cattle. Even if the cattle die, they can only be sold after being identified by the county government.


    Of course, it is not without loopholes. For some rich and powerful families, there are naturally some means to drill loopholes in the law. Around Chang''an City, there are many dead cattle every year.


    "Don''t Merton kill cattle to make hot pot food without permission." Qin Huaiyu was secretly anxious in their hearts.


    If you make beef in private and make good excuses, naturally no one will go deep into it, and Merton puts it on the table. Isn''t that self defeating.


    Li Shimin said coldly, "since you are familiar with the laws of the Tang Dynasty, why do you still know the law and break the law? Is it true that you are spoiled and charming like the imperial historian!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood. The beef in yuzhuangyuan building is not my cattle in the Tang Dynasty, but from all parts of the grassland. The cattle are not good at long-distance running. They are transported from outside the pass to Chang''an City, and several heads have been damaged. These have been filed with the government."


    Hearing this, Li Shimin was relieved and the atmosphere in the box relaxed.


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly looked like what he expected. Merton is so slippery that he can''t leave such a big handle. Since he can say it, he is naturally confident that nothing will happen.


    "How many are there just broken ones? I heard that on the prairie, stuffy Marcos sell well. A jar of wine is worth two cows. How many cows and horses did you get from all parts of the grassland?" Cheng Yaojin asked curiously.


    Merton said proudly, "that was before. Now the price has been stable. A jar of stuffy horses, a horse or a cow. On the grassland, cattle are cheaper than horses. In addition, with the advent of winter, the sales of stuffy horses have increased greatly. There are 100 cows in Chang''an City and about 200 cows have been transported to Datang. At least 500 have not been delivered."


    "Nearly 800 cows!" suddenly everyone could not help but smack his tongue. No one expected that Merton would make so many cattle and horses from the grassland quietly. With the previous horses, he had at least more than 1000 cattle and horses.


    I''m afraid this is the biggest harvest in large livestock after defeating Turks since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.


    The price Merton paid was only thousands of jars of wine, which was really envious.


    Li Shimin was also happy. The tax on the dull horse was four taxes and one, that is to say, 200 cows should be handed over to the court, which is not a small fortune.


    "Well, I was able to taste the beef of the prairie when I defeated the Turks. I can''t forget that delicious food. I didn''t expect to get what I wanted today." Cheng Yaojin said Haomai.


    Li Shimin also remembered those extraordinary years. He drank three cups with Cheng Yaojin and laughed happily.


    At the moment, uncle Yu came in with a large piece of frozen hard beef.


    Cheng Yaojin frowned and said, "the frozen beef overnight? It''s not as delicious as fresh."


    The fish master smiled and said, "general Cheng, I don''t know. If you stew beef brisket, it''s naturally the best fresh beef, but when it comes to eating hot pot, only frozen beef is the best."


    In the curious eyes of the people, master fish held a long tool similar to a small guillotine and fixed the hard beef. The handle of the guillotine for the first time was gently forced.


    The hard beef is cut into small pieces as thin as cicada''s wings under the action of lever and blade, and each is rolled into a reel with the length of index finger.


    The fish master cut the beef on the spot, put it on the table in a plate, like an exquisite work of art.


    "If it''s raw beef, you can''t cut it into such thin slices. In this way, the taste is greatly reduced," Merton explained


    Merton took the lead in picking up a piece of beef and putting it into a boiling soup pot, but it can be fished out and eaten in ten interest hours. Under Merton''s demonstration, people began to add beef hot pot.


    "Really good!" Li Shimin''s eyes lit up.


    As for Cheng Yaojin, he was full of praise. The fish master cut three plates of beef, which were soon destroyed by everyone.


    Later, the whole hot pot became a special beef hot pot. People were full of praise for brushing tripe, peeing beef balls and beef shutters,


    Finally, add the green spinach. Now the cold winter has come. People haven''t eaten green vegetables for at least two months. Especially after eating big fish and meat, it''s an enjoyment to eat a few mouthfuls of vegetables.


    The praising beef and rare green vegetables, even if Li Shimin has tasted all kinds of delicacies, he can''t help nodding and yelling.


    Finally, a delicious milk ice cream is served as dessert, which makes people miss it.


    "Hot pot with beef rolls is an unparalleled delicacy in the world. It''s a pity that there are few cattle and horses in Datang. Otherwise, I will make beef hot pot every day." Cheng Yaojin regretted.


    The laws of the Tang Dynasty are strict. Cheng Yaojin dare not break the law even if he is a national Duke. Otherwise, he will be denounced by the censor, and the consequences will be quite serious.


    Qin Huaiyu nodded again and again. It can be said that the beef hot pot completely conquered them this time.


    Merton secretly glanced at Li Shimin, saw Li Shimin''s expressionless face, and said loudly, "Uncle Cheng, you don''t have to worry about it. Although there are few cattle and horses in our Tang Dynasty, there are cattle everywhere in the prairie and even the western regions of Qinghai. If Uncle Cheng wants to eat, of course, the Mojia village will use stuffy horses to exchange them from all parts of the grassland in the future."


    Cheng Yaojin answered knowingly, "that won''t work either. Once we arrive


    Within the territory of Datang, we must also abide by the laws of Datang and cannot slaughter cattle wantonly. "


    Merton laughed and said, "what''s the difficulty? From the border to Chang''an City, there must be some cattle lost. At that time, they can be slaughtered according to the law."


    Li Shimin suddenly looked bad.


    "There are only a few places for the government to kill cattle a year. Where is enough?" Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand.


    Merton didn''t seem to see Li Shimin''s face and said loudly: "That''s easy to do. Now it''s cold. We can kill all 500 cattle on the prairie and then freeze them before shipping them to Datang. Besides, there''s saltpeter ice making. We''re not afraid of beef damage at all. Datang has been short of beef for a long time and must be very popular. This is a big deal. Uncle Cheng, would you like to cooperate?"


    Cheng Yaojin grinned and said, "that''s nice. In this way, I can not only eat all the beef, but also make a lot of money."


    Li Shimin''s face was suddenly dark.


    Merton laughed and said, "Uncle Cheng wants to eat fresh. I heard that there is a kind of cattle on the Tubo plateau, which is very big and hairy, but can''t be used for farming. I think the cattle can certainly be slaughtered without violating the laws of the Tang Dynasty. This business can also be done."


    Li Shimin listened to Merton and Cheng Yaojin, the old killing talent. With your words and mine, he directly filled the loopholes in the law prohibiting cattle killing in Datang.


    Qin Huaiyu stared at Merton and Cheng Yaojin wandering on the edge of death.


    "You think I don''t exist, do you? For a little money, you ignore the interests of the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said angrily.


    Merton said, "no, I''m defending my right to eat beef."

 Chapter 361

    "Eat beef!" Li Shimin laughed angrily.


    He thought that Merton would quibble and give him a paragraph or two of great truth and advice. Unexpectedly, Merton gave him such a childish reason.


    Merton said righteously: "our Tang Dynasty is a state of heaven and etiquette. Why can all countries in the surrounding grassland eat beef, but not our people in the Tang Dynasty."


    "Er!"


    Qin Huaiyu was stunned. It seems that they never thought of this reason.


    Even Cheng Yaojin opened his mouth this time. He had never seen anyone say that he wanted to eat meat.


    "Cattle are really precious, so I never wanted to pay attention to farming cattle in the Tang Dynasty. Can''t I buy cattle from the grassland? It''s OK for Chang''an County Government," Morton said angrily.


    Li Shimin rightly said, "as long as you enter the territory of Datang, you are governed by the laws of Datang."


    "The five hundred cows, you must bring them back to me intact, otherwise, Hei hei..." Li Shimin sneered, and the threat was particularly obvious.


    Merton immediately wailed, and the beef flew again.


    Merton took a deep breath and changed his language: "Since ancient times, all dynasties have advocated banning the slaughter of farm cattle. However, there is still a lack of farm cattle in the Tang Dynasty. The life span of cattle is about 15 to 20 years, and four years old. Theoretically, a cow can have ten calves, and among the ten calves, there are about five cows. After five years, these cows will continue to produce, and so on. In China, it will be less than 50 years Every household has cattle, but all dynasties can''t get rid of the fate of lack of cattle. Why! "


    "Yes!" Cheng Yaojin said.


    Li Shimin hehe, unmoved, let Merton perform.


    Merton was helpless to continue: "that''s because I have to work for a long time to farm cattle in Datang and can''t stably reproduce calves. Therefore, to solve the shortage of cattle in Datang, we must start from the grassland. The grassland can be turned into a cattle farm in Datang. The most fundamental way to solve the problem of cattle farming is to continuously send cattle to Datang."


    This time, Li Shimin did not refute, but nodded deeply. No one can deny that the grassland is indeed the best place to raise cattle.


    "The bustling world is for profit, and the bustling world is for profit. How to let the grassland departments voluntarily raise cattle for Datang, we should let the grassland departments see the benefits. The boy thinks that the huge beef market of Datang is the best benefit." Merton said


    "Lure it with profit?" Li Shimin thought.


    "In this world, more than boys like beef, do you like it?" Merton pointed to Qin Huaiyu.


    The three nodded.


    "Where''s uncle Cheng?" Merton turned to look at Cheng Yaojin.


    Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "that''s enough!"


    "What about the emperor?" Merton asked again, not afraid of death.


    Li Shimin immediately stared, self-evident.


    "It''s not just us. How many people like it in Datang. According to this, it''s a big business of hundreds of thousands. In this way, it''s forbidden to slaughter cattle in Datang, ensure the number of farm cattle, and lure cattle herding on the prairie with the benefit of beef."


    "Moreover, the grassland is limited in manpower, and there are more cattle and fewer horses. Over time, the whole grassland will raise cattle for Datang. I''m afraid it may not be enough for the people of Datang. At that time, the cattle farming crisis in Datang will be relieved and the suffering in the North will be healed without medicine." Merton waved heavily.


    "OK," Cheng Yaojin said excitedly.


    Li Shimin was moved for the first time and his eyes were uncertain. Datang had always been vigilant towards the prairie. After defeating the Turks, although in order to avoid the rebound of all parts of the prairie, he adopted a fetter policy for all parts of the prairie in case the northern prairie continued to grow.


    Merton''s move can not only reduce the threat of the prairie, but also solve the problem of cattle farming in the Tang Dynasty. It''s too much for Li Shimin''s appetite. You know, it''s war horses, not cattle, that make the prairie strong. How can the prairie with all cattle farming be put in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty.


    "The purpose of your doing this is to eat beef?" Li Shimin looked at Merton in a difficult way.


    Merton said proudly, "don''t doubt the spirit of eating goods."


    "Food spirit."


    Everyone looked at Merton in one face in amazement.


    One food is not terrible, but a group of food is terrible. In later generations, many countries have a headache for the invasion of alien species, crayfish, Asian carp, scallops... However, it has never been a problem in China. Each one has become a delicacy on the table and a disgrace to alien species.


    "Moreover, the price of cattle on the grassland is cheap. When the border cattle enter the Tang Dynasty, it is not all up to your majesty to kill or use them. Chaotang can also levy heavy taxes on the slaughtered beef. In this way, since chaotang can make profits, it can also control the sales of beef." Merton nodded.


    "Win win!"


    A word flashed through everyone''s heart.


    "It is widely said in Chang''an city that Mojia village actively promotes the concept of win-win, which is really worthy of its reputation." Cheng Yaojin praised.


    Li Shimin carefully tasted the word "taste". The more taste, the deeper meaning. As the emperor, of course, he sees further. It seems that both sides and even many parties have gained benefits, but in fact, the leader can unknowingly achieve the strategic purpose, and the benefits can not be compared with a little interest.


    Mojia village promotes win-win in the official road in the south of the city, creating a large number of downstream industries for Mojia village, which can drive other industries.


    The court won this win-win situation. Although the court can benefit the prairie, it can enable Datang to achieve a strategic victory.


    Thinking of this, Li Shimin no longer insisted before. Instead, he nodded thoughtfully and said, "you should give a discount on this matter and submit it to the three provinces and six ministries for discussion."


    "Yes!" Merton was immediately happy. Since Li Shimin was willing to let the three provinces and six departments discuss, he must have been shaken in his heart.


    "Well, what about the cattle that Mo boy brought from the prairie? Now the new year is coming, if the people of the Tang Dynasty can eat beef, they will certainly be grateful to his majesty." Cheng Yaojin hoped.


    "Do the people want to eat, or do you want to eat?" Li Shimin pointed to Cheng Yaojin and scolded with a smile.


    Merton suddenly answered: "Boy, all the cattle transported from the prairie are strong cattle of about five years old on the prairie. It would be a pity to kill them directly. I see that there are many old cattle registered in Datang for more than 15 years. These old cattle are old and weak, and it is difficult to work hard. Mojia village is willing to exchange five-year-old grassland strong cattle for 15-year-old cattle for slaughter. In this way, the people of Datang , you can eat beef for the new year, and farmers can get young calves. "


    "Is Mojia village willing to do these loss making businesses?"


    Li Shimin opened his eyes and looked at Merton puzzled. No one was willing to do this loss business, but Merton took the initiative to do it.


    Merton smiled and said, "the price of a stuffy horse in Mojia village is a jar of a stuffy horse and a cow. It doesn''t say whether it is an old cow or a young calf. What''s more, the meat of a cow is sold in the fish champion building, and the price is not lower than that of a young calf."


    "Well, you''re not afraid to suffer losses. I''ll be stingy if I push three obstacles and four obstacles. I''m sure of the deal." Li Shimin shouted immediately.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Murton Lang said.


    As a result, the Mojia village and the imperial court took what they needed and were happy. Only Cheng Yaojin kept muttering:


    "Fifteen year old cow, the meat is not easy to chew! Forget it, it''s beef at least."

 Chapter 362

    When they had enough to eat and drink, they fought for the right to eat beef. They sat where they were satisfied and aftertaste the delicious beef.


    Seeing that there was still a lot of carbon fire in the copper stove, Merton got up and quenched the carbon fire with soup.


    Cheng Yaojin hurriedly said, "the carbon fire is booming, and the house is very warm. Why is mo boy so stingy, even the charcoal for the fire?"


    Merton said with a wry smile: "most of the fish champion buildings are wooden structures. Carbon fire is easy to cause fire. Where is the boy stingy."


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he joked, "when it comes to carbon, I think of an imperial historian who started to play before the heavy snow. This year''s carbon price is 30% higher than that in previous years. I ask for more carbon supplement! And the culprit is you, boy!"


    "Oh! And this matter. No wonder the old minister spent a lot of money in the family this year?" Cheng Yaojin said with cooperation.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "heaven and earth conscience, Mojia village really didn''t intervene in the charcoal industry."


    Li Shimin said: "Mojia village did not participate in the charcoal industry, but since the introduction of disposable chopsticks in Mojia village, the wood price in Chang''an City has risen slightly, and the charcoal price is naturally rising. You say, is this your problem?"


    "Er!" Merton was speechless. He didn''t think that the disposable chopsticks he accidentally made would cause such a chain reaction.


    "Well, this pot is on my back! However, the rise in the price of wood and charcoal is just in line with the saying of Mojia village. If you want to be rich, build roads first, have more children and trees. The rise in the price of wood is also an increase in income for the people around Chang''an city." Merton said without weakness.


    "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth!" Li Shimin glared at Merton.


    Merton smiled, got up, opened the window and said, "be careful when using carbon in winter. You should always open the window for ventilation, otherwise carbon poisoning is easy to happen."


    "Carbon poison!"


    As soon as Merton said this, everyone couldn''t help sinking.


    The winter of Datang is particularly cold. In addition, cotton has not been popularized, and there are not many clothes and quilts to keep out the cold. Every winter night is the most difficult time.


    At this time, people often close their doors and windows and burn a fire for heating. Every winter, there is a tragedy of carbon poisoning, which is extremely tragic.


    "The price of carbon is very high. If you open the doors and windows, the heating effect is almost negligible. The people are still desperate knowing that there will be a risk of carbon poisoning." Li Shimin said with emotion.


    "It''s said that since the heavy snow, there have been two consecutive carbon poisoning incidents in pingkangfang. One is relatively light and sent to Mo hospital in time for rescue, while the other is miserable. The day is getting worse. The family hasn''t gone out yet. The neighbors detect something wrong and break the door by force. Unfortunately, it''s too late, and all five of the family have been killed." Cheng Yaojin regretted.


    Merton''s heart sank suddenly. There were five people in a family. It was a tragic murder.


    "When winter comes, ink magazine specially uses a page to remind people of the harm of carbon poisoning, but it has little effect." Merton shook his head.


    Just then, uncle Yu suddenly came in and said, "young master, Mo Wu is looking for you. It seems that there is something urgent."


    Merton looked at Li Shimin in unison. Li Shimin waved and said, "you can ask Mo Wu, the disciple beside the Chinese miracle doctor, to come in!"


    Mo Wu has been learning medicine in Huayuan, especially as an apprentice, using a stethoscope to overcome the hanging wire to diagnose the pulse. He is becoming more and more famous in all walks of life in Chang''an City, and Li Shimin has heard of it.


    Mo Wu rushed in in flustered and saw Merton and said in a hurry: "young master, go and stop old Hua and old sun! They want to test the poison by themselves and find a way to crack the carbon poison¡°


    "Testing poison by body, how can it be a child''s play." Merton was startled when he heard the speech.


    "Don''t stop them quickly," Li Shimin said urgently.


    Hua sun''s two elders can be described as the great masters of Tang doctors. One is good at surgery and the other is good at internal medicine. No matter which Tang can''t afford to lose.


    They rushed out of the yuzhuangyuan building. The yuzhuangyuan building was only one street away from the Mo hospital. They were able to arrive in the shortest time.


    "Where are the two miracle doctors?" Merton rushed into the hospital, grabbed a nurse and asked fiercely.


    "In the laboratory of two miracle doctors!" the nurse blurted out.


    "Hurry! Hurry up!" Merton rushed forward with Qin Huaiyu.


    In the laboratory of Mohist hospital, many doctors had already surrounded the room. Seeing that Merton arrived, he quickly stepped aside and saluted:


    "Master Mo!"


    "How do you do things? How can you let two miracle doctors risk themselves!" Merton angrily scolded the doctors when he saw the locked laboratory door.


    "Master Mo, we can''t help it. The two miracle doctors suddenly locked themselves out of the laboratory. We knew that they wanted to test carbon poison themselves." a doctor was wronged.


    "Two miracle doctors, can you hear me clearly?" Merton had no time to blame others. He hurried to the door of the laboratory and shouted.


    "Yes, Mo boy, go aside first and mind your own business." Hua Yuan''s weak voice came from inside.


    "OK, then you two old people come out as soon as possible!" Merton said along, but he quietly gestured to Qin Huaiyu.


    The three understood, and they all slammed into the door of the laboratory.


    Boom!


    The door of the laboratory was slammed open. Although the gate of the Mexican hospital laboratory is solid, it can not withstand the impact of three people.


    When the door of the laboratory opened, Merton immediately saw that in the laboratory, a basin of charcoal fire was placed in the center. Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan were lying weakly on the table, picking up a pencil and recording the characteristics of their poisoning.


    Morton and Qin Huaiyu rushed into it and put the two old men out directly.


    "Don''t move, I haven''t finished it yet!" Hua Yuan still wanted to break away from Merton and continue recording. Merton couldn''t cry or laugh. He grabbed the record sheet in front of him.


    In the open space outside Mo hospital, Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan greedily breathe fresh air. Other doctors have been ordered to leave, leaving only Merton and others running around.


    "The second old man should drink more sugar tea." Merton handed the double hot sugar tea to the second old man.


    They drank it all at once.


    "The two elders were better!" Li Shimin asked with concern.


    "Much better! Thank you, Emperor. Please forgive me for being rude." Sun Simiao struggled to get up, but immediately fell to the ground.


    "You are all the pillars of the doctors in the Tang Dynasty. How can you commit danger with your own body?" Li Shimin said painfully.


    "Carbon poisoning is very harmful. Many people lose their lives every year. It''s the responsibility of our doctors. How can we escape?" Sun Simiao said.


    "Carbon poison is colorless and tasteless, which makes people feel unwell unconsciously. Unfortunately, we can''t find a way to solve carbon poison." old Hua choked his wrist.


    Merton suddenly said, "one person counts short and two people count long. If we want to completely solve the problem of carbon poisoning, how about if we don''t follow the way we solved gold swallowing suicide and gold running in xuandu temple that day?"


    Sun Simiao suddenly thought: "you mean, hold a hundred house discussion!"


    "A hundred suggestions!" Li Shimin said in amazement.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "this is our proposal. If we encounter a problem that is difficult to solve, we can call a hundred scholars and gather the wisdom of a hundred. The boy thinks that the danger of carbon poison is a suitable opportunity."

 Chapter 363

    "Gather the wisdom of a hundred schools and overcome the problems in the world. This is the purpose of a hundred schools of thought!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up immediately. This kind of academic exchange is a great benefit to Datang.


    Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan looked at each other, nodded solemnly, and immediately sent someone to invite hundreds of people to Mo hospital.


    "Can gold run?"


    The messenger had just left. Cheng Yaojin came up to Merton and kept chasing Merton to ask. He seemed to be particularly interested in this question.


    Merton had to patiently tell the principle that gold can run.


    "I see!" Cheng Yaojin suddenly blinked and his eyes flickered.


    "Dad!" Chumo quietly touches Yaojin.


    "Shh! Go back and talk!" Cheng Yaojin glared at his son and shouted in a low voice.


    Merton suddenly turned his head and couldn''t help laughing.


    I have to say that Sun Simiao and Hua Lao have much more face than Merton.


    Everyone can''t live without birth, old age and death. Except Taoists who pursue longevity, it''s normal to see a doctor when they are sick. The second old man is the most famous doctor in Chang''an city,


    How can the people not give face? Once the invitation of a hundred suggestions is issued, the people will soon gather.


    Kong Yingda and Shen Hongcai were the first to arrive.


    The Imperial College and the Mexican hospital are almost obliquely opposite. The two miracle doctors are invited. In addition, the students of the Imperial College are treated at half price in the Mexican hospital. For a long time, the relationship between the Imperial College and the Mexican hospital has been very harmonious.


    After they got the letter, they immediately put down their work and rushed to Mo hospital. When they saw that they were lucky, Li Shimin was also there.


    "See the emperor!" when they saw that Li Shimin was also there, they quickly saluted.


    Li Shimin saw that they were coming as soon as possible and nodded with satisfaction.


    "Please bother brother Kong and brother Shen. This is the charcoal poison data I collected. Let''s learn about it first." Hua Yuan handed over the data he sorted out.


    "You''re welcome, brother Hua!" Kong Yingda quickly picked it up,


    Just as Kong Yingda and her husband were checking the information on carbon poisoning, historian Yan shigu came excitedly. If the harm of carbon poisoning could be solved, today''s matter would surely be remembered in history.


    Yan shigu was followed by Su Lingnong, a farmer. As soon as Su Lingnong came in and saw Merton, he stole spinach for only two hours. He was angry


    Fortunately, Li Shimin was present and did not attack on the spot, but he still stared at Merton with bad eyes.


    Merton immediately smiled bitterly. The real vegetable thief was in front of him, and he had to carry the black pot alone.


    Han Zheng, a doctor of law, also arrived soon. Seeing Li Shimin, he suddenly changed his face, calmed down randomly and saluted respectfully.


    Li Shimin said helplessly, "it seems that Han Aiqing has not forgiven me!"


    Han Zheng said calmly, "Your Majesty has the right of amnesty. It''s a matter of course. Your majesty hasn''t done anything wrong. How can you forgive him."


    Even in later generations, the supreme leader will have the right to amnesty. Han Zheng has seen this very thoroughly, but he said that what he can''t accept is the supreme right to amnesty. He should have been extremely cautious, but Li Shimin abused this right to protect his reputation.


    "Li daozong has asked to resign from the Ministry of punishment three times. I don''t know whether Han Aiqing is willing to take up this important task." Li Shimin suddenly said.


    At this time, the emperor was naturally right, but as the Minister of punishment, it was a big mistake. Li daozong couldn''t stand the pressure and wanted to quit the hot potato of the Minister of punishment.


    Han Zheng paused for a moment and said, "if it had been before, I would have been extremely honored, but I''m afraid I can''t reply to your majesty until the end of the year."


    There was an uproar all around. No one thought that Li Shimin entrusted the important task of the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, and Han Zheng pushed it.


    Li Shimin glanced at Merton with his eyes. Merton immediately jumped in his heart. Fortunately, Li Shimin didn''t study deeply, but nodded and said, "OK, I''ll wait for you to the end of the year."


    With the arrival of Gongshu Hong and the eldest son, Gongshu family and Taoism also arrived, and the hundred family discussion officially began.


    "Please!" Hua Yuan reached out and invited everyone to the conference room of Mo hospital.


    In the broad and bright conference room, a concentric table and chair is quietly placed in the center of the conference room.


    "Round table!"


    Seeing this table, people couldn''t help looking at Merton. The round table conference of Mojia village is famous in Chang''an City, and Huayuan is also one of the top 12 chairs in Mojia village, which naturally brought the style of round table conference to Mojia hospital.


    In Chinese traditional tables and chairs, there is a master position, and other positions are arranged in rows. If the guest''s position is not arranged well, it will certainly make people laugh.


    The round table in Mojia village is different. On the round tables and chairs, each position is the same as the host and guest, regardless of primary and secondary. There is little dissatisfaction with the behavior of the guests. This round table has spread from Mojia village to all parts of Chang''an city.


    Among the hundred schools of thought, Confucianism and Taoism are the most powerful. Mohism has declined to the extreme and has just revived, while legalism has declined. As for arithmetic, historians, farmers and so on, they are inferior.


    However, everyone is a hundred schools of thought. If we arrange the primary and secondary order again, I''m afraid it has already made a gap among hundreds of schools before we start. We still talk about how to solve the problem. The round table just solves this problem.


    "The round table meeting is really good!" Li Shimin nodded in praise and took the lead in finding a seat to sit down.


    Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, farmers, historians, mathematicians, public losers, plus doctors Sun Simiao and Huayuan, a total of 11 people sat down one after another.


    Li Shimin just opened his mouth, but saw Cheng Yaojin secretly move a chair and sit behind.


    Suddenly, everyone''s eyes brushed and stared at him. Cheng Yaojin immediately raised his head and said confidently: "since it is a hundred schools of thought, can''t the old minister represent the strategists?"


    Li Shimin couldn''t laugh or cry.


    "That''s certainly OK! A hundred suggestions, welcome any hundred to join!" Hua Yuan nodded repeatedly. Cheng Yaojin is a famous general in the Tang Dynasty. It''s reasonable to represent a strategist.


    Li Shimin got up and said, "you are the most intelligent people in Datang. The harm of carbon poison has plagued Datang for many years. People lose their lives every year, and even the whole family can''t survive. It''s extremely painful."


    People nodded one after another, which is one of the reasons why they came actively. Even if they didn''t just participate, it would be a great honor.


    "Today I thank you for the people all over the world." Li Shimin said solemnly. These are the most knowledgeable people in Datang, carrying the wisdom of China for thousands of years. Only they can hope to solve this problem.


    "Your Majesty, you''re welcome. We''ll do our best," they said in unison.


    Li Shimin nodded and stretched out his hand. Then Qin Huaiyu and the three of them jointly moved a charcoal basin and put it in the center of the round table.


    Everyone''s face was solemn, and the hundred house discussion officially began.

 Chapter 364

    In the brazier, the charcoal fire was red, and the cyan flame jumped out of the old height. Everyone only felt a heat wave. In a moment, the whole room was warm.


    Burning charcoal for heating was a common thing. However, just when everyone was used to it, a silent disaster suddenly came and took people''s lives in silence.


    Sun Simiao got up slowly and said with a loud voice, "since the day of heavy snow, the Mexican hospital has received three carbon poisoning incidents. One family was spared, and none of the other two families and eight people were spared."


    The hearts of the people suddenly became heavy.


    "This is just around Chang''an this year. What about other places in the Tang Dynasty? Over the years? If you add up, how many people will be destroyed by charcoal poison?" Sun Simiao said again.


    People suddenly shuddered and felt how heavy the task was.


    Hua Yuan continued: "Why is charcoal poison such a disaster? According to the cases collected by doctors, first, burning charcoal for heating is a common thing, and people are not wary at all. Second, charcoal poison is colorless and tasteless, which makes people impossible to prevent. Once it is found that it is already poisoned, nausea and vomiting, limb weakness, and even coma until death. Third, once charcoal poison occurs, everyone in the house is spared , if it is found in time, it will not matter. Once it is found late, there will be no medicine to cure. "


    "No medicine to cure!"


    People''s hearts sank, thinking about the case of carbon poisoning in Chang''an City in recent years. It was very heavy.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t believe it and said, "even doctors can''t help it?"


    Hua Yuan shook his head and said, "it can''t be said that there is no way at all. The Mexican hospital can also use first aid to alleviate the patients found in time. However, the poisoning is generally too deep. At least for now, there is no medicine to cure. Because doctors don''t know where the carbon poison comes from, what it is, and how to detoxify it."


    The crowd nodded slowly to cure the disease and root. Only by finding the root of the disease can they cure the disease. Now doctors don''t even know how carbon poison occurs. How to treat the disease? Apply the medicine to the case!


    Su Lingnong shook his head and said, "charcoal is made of wood. Wood has no toxicity at all, and charcoal is absolutely non-toxic."


    Everyone nodded slowly. It''s common sense that all wood and charcoal are non-toxic.


    Li Shimin also agreed: "since wood charcoal is not toxic, does it emit toxic smoke in the process of charcoal combustion.


    Su Lingnong directly denied, "it''s impossible. How many people in the world use charcoal for fire? If it was poisonous, it would have been discovered long ago."


    Charcoal and wood are farm affairs. Su Lingnong has absolute authority in this regard. In this way, the of wood has been eliminated. Yan shigu picked up a paper and pen and excitedly recorded it.


    Shen Hongcai, sitting next to Yan shigu, frowned and said: "Just now I counted that all the cases of charcoal poisoning occurred indoors. It was cold in winter. Most families closed their doors and windows to avoid the cold wind. Is the indoor space narrow and the toxicity caused by charcoal combustion is very slight, which is in a narrow space. Under the condition of sealing, more and more accumulated overnight, and finally poisoned.


    As soon as Shen Hongcai said this, everyone in the audience immediately brightened up. It''s really possible.


    "It''s impossible!" Taoist Changsheng shook his head and said.


    The people immediately looked at Taoist Changsheng and said to him. Looking at the dark hair of Taoist Changsheng, they couldn''t help thinking about it. They all knew what happened in xuandu temple. They didn''t expect that the Taoist school would send him this time.


    Taoist Changsheng didn''t care about these eyes. He said in a positive way: "I used to use charcoal as fuel when I was alchemy. Each alchemy usually lasted ten days and nights, and the space in the alchemy room was also tightly closed. It''s not much larger than an ordinary room! I haven''t had any problems for more than ten days, let alone just one night.


    There was a dead silence, only Yan shigu kept remembering.


    For a moment, everyone fell into a bottleneck. Charcoal itself is non-toxic, and it is also non-toxic after combustion. So where does charcoal poison come from.


    Merton suddenly got up and said, "when it comes to carbon poison, the boy has a little personal experience, which may be useful."


    "In those days, the Mojia village was very poor, and even the Mojia house was not enough. I remember one year, it was very cold in winter, and it was difficult to sleep even with a double-layer cloth quilt," Merton recalled.


    When they looked at Merton''s young face, it was difficult to understand what was on his mind. I''m afraid that only Merton was born in poverty. Even if others were poor, they were rich and noble. Even if it was a public defeat, Hong was also a large family. There was no problem with food and clothing.


    "As a last resort, the boy made a fire in the house to keep warm. On the first day, the boy lit a charcoal fire before going to bed. As a result, he woke up in the middle of the night. When he got up, he saw that the charcoal fire in the stove had already been burned out and had to add another charcoal, so he could sleep until dawn."


    When they heard the speech, they suddenly smiled knowingly.


    "The next day, the boy learned from his experience and consulted an uncle. Only then did he learn that if he sprinkled a layer of plant ash on the top of the stove, the fire could last for a long time. Even at dawn, the fire would not go out. In order to save charcoal, the boy gladly followed suit, so the next day, the boy was directly carried out with charcoal poison." Merton said playfully.


    The crowd burst into laughter.


    "Fortunately, he was found early at that time. He was sent to HuaLao medicine shop in time for medical treatment, otherwise you wouldn''t see the boy." Merton said.


    Hua Yuan nodded and said, "I remember that the people of the whole village were frightened at that time."


    "In retrospect, the boy used double charcoal fire on the first day, but I was not poisoned by charcoal. On the contrary, the next day, he only used one charcoal, but the boy was carried out. I think the problem lies in this."


    The people were shocked and said, "you mean that the normal burning charcoal is not toxic, and the charcoal fire sprinkled with plant ash has carbon toxicity?"


    Merton nodded.


    Sun Simiao suddenly said: "indeed, in many cases, families with carbon poisoning do have such similar behavior."


    "Plant ash is poisonous?" Su Lingnong wondered.


    Merton shook his head and said: is it not that the plant ash is poisonous? But plant ash makes charcoal burn slowly, which produces carbon poison.


    "Normal burn-up is non-toxic, slow down burn-up is toxic?" people thought about it and found that it was this possibility.


    "It''s impossible! How can there be things in the world that are both toxic and non-toxic." Han Zheng shook his head. He was deeply influenced by Legalists and has always insisted that the world is clear about this. How could he think that there would be things so complex.


    However, more people believe in Merton''s relationship. They are all super intelligent people. Naturally, they can see that if there is no accident, I''m afraid carbon poison is indeed the reason.


    Merton said, "it''s easy to verify that the charcoal brazier in front of us has been burning for half an hour, but we don''t have any symptoms of poisoning at all."


    "Now we just need to cover the brazier with plant ash, and we can know it at a try," Merton said.


    The crowd nodded. Although they believed Merton''s judgment, no one could confirm it unless they witnessed it with their own eyes.

 Chapter 365

    A thin layer of plant ash was spread on the charcoal fire basin. In an instant, the flame in the fire basin was annihilated..


    Everyone was worried and immediately knew that charcoal poison had begun to produce.


    "Emperor! Please leave this house," Hua Yuan advised.


    Li Shimin nodded and took the lead in walking out of the conference room. A group of people from all walks of life walked out one after another.


    Merton went to the end, waited for the people to come out of the conference room, and shut them out with a bang.


    "Merton, what are you doing?" Hua Yuan was surprised. He wanted to open the door, but he felt that Merton had blocked the door from the inside.


    "Charcoal poison is colorless and tasteless. Only people can detect it in the room. The boy is young, strong and can carry it." Merton''s laughing voice came from the conference room.


    Cheng Yaojin shouted, "your boy is weak. If you really want to test the poison with your body, Chumo will come. Come out and replace him."


    When Cheng was in Merton, his heart sank. You''re really a father. It''s invisible charcoal poison. You''re not afraid of white haired people sending black haired people.


    Merton pondered for a moment, opened the door of the conference room, exposed his head and shouted, "carbon poison has different reactions. Maybe more people will test it and try it. Different people''s carbon poison reactions also have certain medical value."


    "Er, ER!" immediately Qin Huaiyu and the three wanted to strangle Merton.


    They were sure that Merton did not want to suffer alone and pulled the three of them into the water.


    In desperation, in full view of the public, Merton dared to take risks. It would be a shame if they accepted advice, so they had to go directly into the conference room.


    "Merton, I remember you!" Chumo passes by Merton, punches him hard, and says with hatred.


    Qin Huaiyu three people swarmed in, and the door of the conference room was closed again.


    Qin Huaiyu and his companions were sitting in the position of various schools of thought just now. They didn''t feel honored at all. They all stared nervously at the dark red charcoal fire. They heard it very clearly just now. It was a colorless, tasteless and invisible poison gas that killed people.


    Qin Huaiyu was fidgeting. He suddenly covered his chest and said, "Merton, I suddenly feel very uncomfortable. Is it poisoning?"


    Merton glared at him angrily and said, "it''s only twenty breath since I entered the house. If I could be poisoned so quickly, there wouldn''t be so many carbon poisoning events."


    "Besides, there are people outside. We are still in the Mexican hospital. Even if we are poisoned, we can save you."


    "Didn''t you say there was no medicine to cure?" Wei Chi Baolin muttered.


    Merton patiently explained, "the door is unlocked. If I wait for poisoning, it''s not too late to go out again."


    "I''d rather fight on the battlefield than face such colorless and tasteless poison gas," Chumo sighed.


    Merton was about to say it again. Suddenly he felt a burst of nausea. Looking at Qin Huaiyu, they frowned one after another. Carbon poison had begun to work.


    The four looked at each other and nodded affirmatively.


    "Bang bang!" Merton slapped the door of the conference room.


    "What''s the matter?" Cheng Yaojin''s loud voice came from outside the room.


    Merton replied loudly, "the four of us have begun to feel sick and have been slightly poisoned. It can be confirmed that this is charcoal poison."


    When they heard the speech, they were relieved. They knew where the carbon poison came from, and then they had a target to watch out for.


    Hua Lao and Sun Simiao were just about to pick up the materials to prepare the records, but they heard the sound of brushing. Yan shigu was holding a pencil and writing a special book. The first hundred house discussion found the origin of carbon poison. This must be a story that can be recorded in history!


    "OK! Now that it''s confirmed, you can come out!" old Hua said quickly outside the room.


    Merton was about to promise. Suddenly, he thought that Cheng Yaojin said he was weak just now. He turned his head and saw the strong bodies of the three people. He gritted his teeth and said, "there''s nothing wrong with the carbon poison in the body in a short time. We can take the opportunity to experiment with the reaction of different people to the carbon poison. It''s not too late for anyone to stick to it later."


    Qin Huaiyu wanted to curse his mother in their hearts, but after looking at each other, they didn''t think they were the weakest. With a cold hum, they acquiesced to Merton''s words.


    "Yes, the four people have the courage to bear the responsibility for the people of the Tang Dynasty. They are indeed materials that can be made!" Su Lingnong sighed.


    Li Shimin and a group of people from all walks of life nodded one after another. Only Kong Yingda was very tired. These four people didn''t get into trouble in the Imperial College. They were all problem students. Now they have turned around and become good children praised by everyone. It''s too fast to change their painting style!


    Cheng Yaojin doesn''t care. When he hears people praising his son, his old face smiles like a chrysanthemum in bloom.


    In the conference room, Merton four people sat opposite each other, one by one, trying to endure the pain in their hearts. They sat with big eyes and small eyes. The gate was not far away. They could be opened as long as they walked past.


    But none of the four was willing to admit defeat. They were the first to open the door.


    Suddenly, Merton retched, and suddenly, like a chain reaction, the four rushed to the door.


    "Bang!"


    The door of the conference room was opened heavily, and the four people scrambled out in a hurry. They ran to the open space to spit and crazy absorb the newly selected air.


    After a long time, the four people poured three cups of tea, sugar and tea, which made them feel better.


    "For a quarter of an hour, the danger of charcoal poison was so fierce." Sun Simiao sighed when he saw the four people sitting there weakly.


    "Vomiting, nausea, weakness, there is no difference in physical strength after poisoning.


    Hua Yuan observed the four people and recorded their symptoms.


    Yan shigu was unwilling to be outdone. He kept recording with a pen. Cheng Yaojin behind him smiled and was obviously very satisfied.


    Open the doors and windows of the meeting room and remove the vegetation ash in the charcoal fire basin. After a while, the charcoal fire basin will re ignite the cyan flame.


    The crowd returned to their place again.


    "So, charcoal poison has been found." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.


    Sun Simiao nodded: "there is no poison in wood and charcoal, even in charcoal combustion. Only by covering up the charcoal and prolonging its burning time can charcoal poison be produced."


    "And the toxicity is extremely fierce!" Sun Simiao added.


    Han Zheng suddenly got up and saluted Li Shimin and said, "since the reason has been found, please tell the world the cause of carbon poison and warn the world."


    Li Shimin nodded deeply and said, "but it''s cold in winter in the north, and people can''t bear it at night in winter. I''m afraid people will take risks knowing that there may be carbon poison."


    Su Lingnong nodded: "burning charcoal directly, I''m afraid it will be burned out in the middle of the night. It''s too expensive to add charcoal in the middle of the night. Of course, it''s difficult for the people to bear it."


    "Opening half a window at night can also effectively prevent carbon poisoning," said Hua.


    Han Zheng shook his head and said, "it''s easy for thieves to open doors and windows. I''m afraid it''s hard for the people to accept it."


    He denied this proposal from the perspective of Legalists. There are no anti-theft windows in this era. Opening the windows is equivalent to leaving a door for thieves.


    For a while, everyone knew the harm of carbon poison, but there was nothing to do. There was no good way to solve it.


    When they were at a loss, a voice suddenly said, "I have a skill to solve the harm of carbon poison for your majesty."

 Chapter 366

    As soon as they heard this, they immediately turned their eyes to Merton. In their impression, Merton usually has an ink skill at this time.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, Merton was still sitting in his chair pretending to be a dead dog and didn''t speak at all.


    At this time, the crowd looked awkwardly at a middle-aged Chinese character next to Merton.


    "Public loser!" people were surprised.


    The public was delighted that gongloser was the founder of craftsman and had been covered up by the light of Mohism all the time, but no one denied his skill.


    Li Shimin was immediately delighted and said, "it''s Mr. Gongshu. Please say that if you can solve the harm of carbon poison, it''s a blessing in the world."


    Gongshu Hong got up and said, "Your Majesty is flattered! The grass people were inspired by you to think of this skill. Please correct it."


    Among all the people, Gongshu family is the weakest. Gongshu Hong first complimented the people, and then revealed all his ideas.


    "After gathering the wisdom of the people, we finally found the charcoal poison. This is the poisonous smoke generated after the charcoal fire is covered up and the ventilation is reduced to prolong the combustion. Since it is poisonous smoke, it''s easy to do. Think about how to smoke in the kitchen?" Gongshu Hong suggested.


    The people immediately looked at each other and shook their heads. In this era, a gentleman is far away from cooking. It can be said that there are few times that people here have been in the kitchen. That is, Gongshu family and Mohist family live in seclusion and often see this thing.


    "You mean chimney?" Hua Yuan hesitated.


    He used to live in Mojia village and was once destitute. Naturally, he saw chimneys.


    "That''s right! It''s the chimney. Since carbon poison is also a kind of smoke, we can''t just discharge it." Gongshu hongxingfen said.


    As soon as they heard it, they suddenly realized that such a simple truth had baffled countless people in the world.


    "Good idea!" Sun Simiao exclaimed.


    "Chimney smoke exhaust is the simplest truth in the world. The original problem of solving carbon poison is around us!" Li Shimin couldn''t help sighing. The truth is so simple, but everyone turned a blind eye and lost so many lives for nothing.


    People from hundreds of families also lamented that the problems that have plagued China for many years have been solved so easily.


    Many people can''t help but keep changing their eyes on the public loser Hong and Merton. All along, it is the patent of Mohism to solve the problems that people can''t do anything about from the small things in life, and the public loser is more and more like the style of Mohism.


    "But chimneys are built with pots and pans, and charcoal heating is mostly in the bedroom. I''m afraid it''s not realistic to build chimneys in the bedroom!" Kong Yingda shook his head.


    Gongshu Hong nodded and said: "This naturally needs to be improved. Public losers can specially transform the carbon stove, seal it all, and then create a hollow iron tube to connect the carbon stove and discharge the carbon poison directly out of the room. In this way, the room can be heated, and the carbon poison has been discharged out of the room with the iron tube. In this way, the harm of carbon poison will be relieved naturally."


    As soon as Merton''s eyes lit up, he didn''t expect that gongshuhong had such a wonderful idea that he built a new stove with chimneys and smoke exhaust in future generations thousands of years in advance.


    "This is good law!"


    Everyone nodded.


    "Gongshu family really deserves its reputation. It used this wonderful method to relieve the harm of carbon poison for our people in the Tang Dynasty. How can we not reward this great skill? If the Ministry of work awarded Mr. Gongshu as a great general," Li Shimin said happily.


    "Thank you, Emperor!" Gongshu Hong said excitedly. Gongshu family has always been a rootless Ping in Chang''an city. Today, he was personally named a great general by Li Shimin, and the Gongshu family has a foothold.


    When he learned that today''s discussion was to solve carbon poison, and that Li Shimin personally presided over it, Gongshu Hong was not in a hurry, but sat there quietly and meditated, but had no clue.


    When he looked at Merton, he suddenly thought of what he would do if it were a Mohist. Suddenly, he thought of the principle of chimney.


    Su Lingnong nodded and said, "the chimney method can not only meet the heating needs of the people, but also save charcoal. It is more safe and non-toxic. It is the gospel of the people."


    "Your Majesty, you are a body of ten thousand gold. Even the chimney method can not ensure the integrity. Please don''t burn charcoal in the imperial palace for the sake of the people all over the world." Kong Yingda suddenly got up and thought about Li Shimin''s suggestion.


    People suddenly realized that the fire heating would indeed produce carbon poison. Although there are chimneys to discharge toxic smoke, who can ensure absolute safety? In case the chimneys are not well sealed and leaked, or are used by intentional people, the consequences will be unimaginable. For the Imperial Palace, as long as it is poisonous, it will never be contaminated.


    Gongshu Hong also thought of this and couldn''t help sweating.


    The chimney method has indeed solved the harm of carbon poison, but it can not guarantee the complete discharge of carbon poison. In fact, it is not only that the chimney method will not be used in the Imperial Palace, but even dignitaries will not be used.


    Merton nodded secretly. Although Kong Yingda was suspected of flattering Li Shimin, he did have this hidden worry.


    "What''s the way? Can''t you only be frozen in the Imperial Palace in winter?" Li Shimin joked.


    "Mr. public loser, you have other good ideas!" Su Lingnong nodded and asked.


    Gongshu Hong was ashamed and said, "I have little talent and learning, and I can''t relieve the emperor''s worries."


    People are really disappointed. They can''t even lose a fortune. I''m afraid there''s no one in the world... "


    Suddenly, everyone was stunned. They all focused their eyes on a quiet corner. In the corner, Merton was leaning back on his chair and drinking tea comfortably.


    Merton suddenly saw everyone staring at him, raised his head in amazement, pointed to himself and said, "me?"


    "Yes, it''s you! If you have any good way, don''t hide it." Cheng Yaojin said directly.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "in fact, Mr. Gongshu''s chimney method is an excellent method. It costs very little and is simple to operate. Generally speaking, there will be no problems as long as it is not the leakage of the iron tube and the blockage of the chimney."


    "The iron tube leaked and the chimney blocked." Gongshu Hong was black in his eyes. He didn''t think that there were such big loopholes in the chimney of the perfect method.


    Smoke exhaust stoves became popular in later generations, but there were not no accidents. Even the chimneys used last year were nested by birds. When they were reused the next year, they were careless and did not find them. As a result, the chimneys were blocked and carbon poisoning occurred again.


    "Your Majesty is a man of ten thousand gold. He doesn''t take any risks." Cheng Yaojin shouted.


    "It''s not that there''s no way, but this method costs a lot and is quite extravagant and wasteful." Merton nodded.


    "Seriously?" the people were surprised. He didn''t expect that there were still ways to make people helpless. He found two solutions today.


    Merton nodded, "if you want to keep warm, you must burn fire and charcoal, which is impossible to change."


    Gongshu Hong nodded and agreed.


    "Mr. Gongshu''s method is to burn charcoal in the house and discharge the poisonous smoke, while the boy''s method is the opposite. He burns charcoal outside the house and sends warmth to the house. The boy calls it heating." Merton said.

 Chapter 367

    "Heating?"


    Hearing this strange word, people couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    "Mo boy, have you poisoned your brain? Burning charcoal outside the house, how can you keep the house warm?" Cheng Yaojin didn''t believe.


    Other people also want to break their heads and can''t think of how to do this. If the warm wind blows in, it will blow the carbon poison in again.


    Merton said: "of course, poison gas cannot be allowed into the house. To keep the house warm in cold winter, there must be a heat source in the house to continuously emit heat. If this heat source wants to transfer heat from outside the house, it must have strong thermal conductivity."


    "Iron!" Hong Lang said.


    Merton nodded: "yes, it is indeed iron! Iron is the most common metal. It is cheap and has very fast thermal conductivity. Once a fire is made in the kitchen, the whole iron pot will be hot in a very short time. It is the best thermal conductivity."


    Cook, cook again. Everyone was almost crazy. The public loser got the inspiration to discharge carbon poison from the kitchen chimney. Mojiazi still got the inspiration of iron heat transfer from the iron pot in the kitchen.


    Are there countless treasures hidden in the kitchen, so that they also want to enter the kitchen to see if they can be inspired and show their skills in front of the public.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "although iron conducts heat quickly, it dissipates heat quickly. Even the red iron will dissipate the heat in less than a quarter of an hour."


    "Then we need another thing that can store and transport heat most," said Merton, holding up his tea and blowing the curl of white smoke on it.


    "Water!" the people''s eyes lit up and said in unison.


    "That''s good! You can think about it. When we use the carbon stove, we will sit on an iron kettle to boil water. When we use the iron kettle in a very short time, it will be hot, but the water in the kettle is still cold. It will take quite a long time to boil. After the kettle boils, we take out the kettle and put it aside. After half an hour, the water in the kettle is still warm, It can be seen that water is the best thing to store heat. "


    This is common sense. As soon as Merton said it, everyone immediately understood that iron and water are common things. In this way, heating may also be implemented.


    "How can iron and water warm the room? Can we put a kettle in the room?" Cheng Yaojin said carelessly.


    The crowd suddenly chuckled.


    Merton didn''t mean it, but smiled and said, "that''s naturally impossible, so the boy is going to make a pipe with iron and lead the hot water from the iron pipe into the room."


    Honghuo ran, the public loser, raised his head. The public loser''s iron tube discharged the carbon poison, while the Mohist School cast iron pipes with iron to let hot water flow in. The means and methods are surprisingly similar.


    "Different paths lead to the same goal!" this word can''t help but flash out of people''s minds.


    "This method is feasible?" Li Shimin asked with a frown.


    Merton affirmed: "it is absolutely feasible. The main business of Mojia village is steelmaking. Steelmaking will produce a lot of waste heat. It is extremely cold in winter. The villagers of Mojia village use the waste heat of steelmaking to heat the hot water, and then let the hot water flow through the plants along the channel. In this way, the plants are as warm as spring, and the workers don''t feel cold in their single clothes."


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly said, "so the so-called heating is not burning iron with carbon fire, but burning hot water with carbon fire, and then conducting the iron pipe with hot water to send heat into the room."


    Merton looked at Cheng Yaojin with appreciation. Cheng Yaojin immediately grinned excitedly. Suddenly, he felt that this situation seemed wrong and sat down seriously.


    "In this way, the iron pipe continues to dissipate heat. Since the room is clean and sanitary, it is as warm as spring all day, and there is no harm of carbon poison." Merton depicts a fascinating picture.


    The crowd was immediately moved. After this comparison, the Mohist family and the public loser immediately made a judgment. The public loser left the stove in the house with constant hidden dangers. There was not only the risk of fire, but also the risk of carbon poison leakage.


    The Mohists directly put out the carbon furnace, completely eliminating the possibility of carbon poisoning.


    Even Gongshu Hong was conquered by Merton''s heating idea. Their ideas were surprisingly similar, but Mohist Zi achieved the ultimate.


    "This method is very good. Officials think it is appropriate to adopt Mohist method in the palace." Kong Yingda praised.


    Li Shimin was moved in his heart, but hesitated to say, "is this too extravagant and wasteful? I Tang Dynasty holds the country with diligence and thrift, how can I take the lead in pleasure."


    Upon hearing this, Kong Yingda immediately heard that he knew what he meant. He was admonishing again and again, but he heard Merton''s mouth turn away and say: "Boy, I''m going to build a super large boiler to boil water first, so that I can burn a lot of hot water at one time. Because there is a lot of heat stored in water, we can connect many rooms in series with pipes, so that a boiler can supply heating for many rooms. Converted, it''s much less than a carbon furnace in one room."


    "Enlarge the kettle!" the crowd was stunned.


    Seeing the big from the small and solving the big problems from the small things in life is indeed a strong style of Mohism. Who can think of so many from a kettle and enlarge the kettle several times to completely solve the problem of carbon poisoning.


    Instead of wasting, Li Shimin was frugal. It was so convenient that Li Shimin nodded and agreed without waiting for everyone to persuade him again.


    "Immeasurable Heavenly Master, the iron is extremely hard. It is the most rigid thing. It is as good as water. It is the most soft thing. It combines hardness and softness. The carbon poison can be easily solved. Every move of Mo tanyue coincides with the essence of Taoism." Taoist Changsheng bowed his head.


    "It''s just a big kettle. The ox''s nose can still be pulled on your Taoism." Cheng Yaojin sniffed at the speech and directly exposed the forced addition of Taoist Changsheng.


    Merton was listening to dark Shuang. When he heard that Cheng Yaojin called the heating a kettle, he was so angry that his nostrils vented.


    "Lord Mo''s idea of heating is really a talent of heaven, and Gongshu family thinks it is inferior." Gongshu Hong admitted cleanly.


    Yan shigu stopped the pen and paper in his hand and suddenly asked, "I have a question here. Please call the Mohist school."


    Merton''s face was solemn and said, "excuse me, old Yan."


    Yan shigu thought for a moment and said, "these worldly problems are difficult for countless people. Why did you come to Lord Mo and solve them many times? It''s easy to solve them with the common trivial things in our life. I don''t know what secret Lord Mo has."


    As soon as master Yan''s old saying fell, the whole audience became silent and stared at Merton one by one.


    Merton was stunned when he heard the speech. He immediately didn''t know how to answer. Can it be said that I carry more than 1000 years of knowledge accumulation? An idea suddenly said: "pay attention to knowledge everywhere, and human understanding is an article."


    Everyone was stunned and suddenly seemed to have an epiphany. The method used by Mozi was not a common thing in life. If you could pay attention everywhere, you would be able to detect it, but most people turned a blind eye to it. Only Mozi made it into knowledge.


    "Taught!"


    Yan shigu and other people have a sense of enlightenment.


    "Merton is a boy who is always Biao poetry," only Qin Huaiyu knew Merton''s pee and scolded him in his heart.

 Chapter 368

    The cause of carbon poisoning has been found, and there are prevention plans. Of course, there are still some finishing work, which is not over. Doctors still need to continue to study how to treat carbon poisoning.


    As for why charcoal is, because a handful of plant ash can change between toxic and non-toxic, Taoist waidan Yimai, who is determined to pursue the way of material longevity, is very interested.


    As for the construction of chimneys, stoves and heating equipment, it is up to the public losers and Mohists.


    "In the Warring States period, the contention of a hundred schools of thought was fascinating, but I think that today''s discussion of a hundred schools of thought is better than the contention of a hundred schools of thought. You should put aside your prejudices and let a hundred schools of knowledge gather together to solve the world''s problems. Such a major event should be remembered in history." Li Shimin sighed.


    "All the old ministers have been recorded in the book. When I go back, I will write today''s events into the history books." Yan shigu said solemnly.


    All the schools of thought were immediately overjoyed and said in unison, "it''s my honor.


    Everyone got up and the discussion of the hundred families was officially over.


    Walking out of the meeting room, breathing fresh air, everyone thought about the harm of carbon poison and immediately felt very sad.


    If we hadn''t solved the harm of carbon poison today, if someone wanted to use this method to harm people, I''m afraid he wouldn''t know how to die.


    "Taoist elder brother Changsheng!" Cheng Yaojin came up to Taoist elder Changsheng and said with a smile. He didn''t seem to remember that he ran against Taoist elder Changsheng just now.


    "General Cheng has something to say!" Taoist Changsheng said helplessly.


    "I don''t know if Taoist priest Changsheng''s secret skill of hair dyeing remains. I recently found that white hair has suddenly increased a lot. It''s really aging!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Taoist Changsheng''s black hair and said with envy.


    In fact, Cheng Yaojin is not old, but 45. Although he is in his prime of life, he is the age at which white hair increases the fastest. It is the most sensitive.


    Other people could not help but turn their ears. Most of them had experienced the Taoist meeting. Of course, they knew that the hair of the eldest son was dyed,.


    Some time ago, there was a rumor in Chang''an city that the supreme emperor was nearly 70 years old and his hair was all white. After using Merton''s Secret hair dyeing technique, his hair was all black, which could make people envy him.


    Cheng Yaojin asked Merton for help many times. Unfortunately, Merton''s inventory had already wiped out Li Yuan. He was so annoyed that he had to push him to Taoist Changsheng.


    Cheng Yaojin saw his eldest son today. How can he miss this opportunity and immediately go up to fight.


    "Elder martial brother Changsheng, I also want to ask elder martial brother Changsheng for a secret hair dyeing skill. I can''t deny it." unexpectedly, Yan shigu also came forward.


    "Huh?"


    All the people immediately stared at Yan shigu''s white hair. The old man was the most old-fashioned. They didn''t expect him to be as serious as Cheng Yaojin.


    Yan shigu said with a wry smile: "I''m old. It doesn''t matter whether my hair is black or not. It''s just that my son Yan Yun has a white head since childhood. Therefore, I didn''t ask for medicine. Even the two miracle doctors are helpless. I just heard the Taoist priest''s hair dyeing skills. That''s why I have the courage to ask."


    "So it is?" the crowd suddenly.


    "It''s really a difficult problem for my doctor to have less white head. At present, there is no effective treatment. It''s really a good way for your son to use the secret skill of hair dyeing." Sun Simiao praised.


    "In this case, I''m afraid our hospital will also ask brother Changsheng for some hair dyeing skills, so that there will be a solution for a few white headed patients." Hua Yuan moved in his heart.


    Taoist Changsheng immediately felt a wave of worship. At the Taoist meeting that day, his secret skill of hair dyeing was exposed by Merton, which was simply pointed out by thousands of people. He was like a lost dog. Who could have thought that Merton was the one who saved him.


    The secret technique of hair dyeing is so popular that it must be a radiant face for him. He picked up his father''s shorthand notes, his eyes became brighter and brighter, the collision of hundreds of ideas, and Merton''s classic poems made him intoxicated.


    "Also, this is the secret skill of Taoist Changsheng. When you finish finishing, dye your hair black!" Yan shigu put a bottle of ointment on the table and walked out of the study as if nothing had happened.


    Soon, Yan Yun and Yan''s surprised screams came from the study. At this moment, all the strict tutors were forgotten.


    After all, Yan Yun is a teenager. He wears gray hair all day. He has been instructed by others and ridiculed by his peers. With the secret skills of hair dyeing, these will never happen again before.

 Chapter 369

    With the end of the discussion, the origin of carbon poison spread like flying in Chang''an city.


    At this time, the powerful ruling power of the Tang Dynasty immediately became apparent. With the communication of officials layer by layer, the Fang Zheng of all the Fang cities in Chang''an City informed the harm of carbon poison and the methods of prevention and control door by door.


    With the passage of time, it spread all over the Tang Dynasty at an accelerated speed of 800 Li. It is believed that the origin and prevention of carbon poison will certainly be spread to thousands of families in just a few days.


    "Did charcoal poison come like this?"


    The people of Chang''an City knew the origin of carbon poison and suddenly burst into a cold sweat.


    Burning charcoal for heating in winter has a long history. In order to save charcoal, or do not want to get up at night and add charcoal in the severe cold, many people mostly use the method of covering with ash or blocking the vent to prolong the burning speed of charcoal fire.


    No one thought that at this time, carbon poison had been produced, and it was colorless and tasteless, which was impossible to prevent.


    "Fortunately, we have a big life!" many people immediately took a chance. According to this, they don''t know how many times they have passed through the gate of death.


    "I''ll never burn charcoal like that again. It''s nothing to freeze it. If I lose my life, I''ll lose a lot."


    "But the winter night is so cold that we don''t burn charcoal. How can we spend the long night?"


    "There''s no way. I can only get up in the middle of the night and add charcoal." they were helpless.


    It is impossible not to burn charcoal on a winter night. If you open the window, there will be little heating effect, and it is very unsafe. As a last resort, you have to let the charcoal fire burn, wait until it is almost finished, and then get up in the middle of the night to add charcoal.


    As a result, the consumption of charcoal in Chang''an city increased sharply, and the prices of wood and charcoal rose again.


    The bitter cold of the night passed, and it was just dawn. The whole Chang''an city seemed to wake up. In an ordinary house in Yankang square, a young man in his twenties was ready to go out to work and make a living for the day.


    Seeing the already cold charcoal basin, the young man shook his head painfully. Even if he added a charcoal fire in the middle of the night, he still couldn''t support it all night.


    "Fortunately, there will be no carbon poison, just peace!" the young man was distressed and had to use it to comfort himself.


    The young man opened the door and walked out of the courtyard. Suddenly, he found that his mother, who usually got up early to cook, was still closed. Suddenly a bad feeling came to my mind.


    "Mother!"


    The young man shouted and knocked on the door.


    The young man shouted to his neighbors and knocked the door open.


    Sure enough, there was a pot of charcoal fire covered with plant ash in the house. The neighbors quickly carried the old woman out. They saw that the old woman''s face was red. Fortunately, they didn''t lose consciousness. They quickly carried the old woman to an open place according to the carbon poison first aid method publicized by Fang Zheng. At the same time, they kept their breathing unobstructed. More enthusiastic people brought sugar and tea from home for the old woman to drink.


    "Fang Zheng has already informed us that it''s very easy to be poisoned by charcoal fire covered by plant ash. Why did Liu still do this?" the neighbor didn''t understand.


    "It''s not just that burning charcoal costs too much money, plus taking chances!" a neighbor who knows Liu''s character sighs that burning charcoal directly is too expensive. Not to mention Liu''s frugal life, even they are distressed.


    "Let''s inform the MOH hospital quickly!" a neighbor suggested.


    The early warning bell rang, and soon the emergency carriage of Mo hospital arrived. Hua Lao led him out of the carriage and immediately checked Liu.


    "It''s a miracle doctor!"


    Someone went to Mo hospital and saw Hua Yuan. He was surprised to see that it was doctor Hua who came in person.


    Mo hospital should continue to study how to treat carbon poisoning. The most likely time for carbon poisoning is in the morning. Huayuan is specially on duty in the morning. Once there is a place to press the emergency alarm system, Huayuan starts with the team. As expected, this is another carbon poisoning incident.


    "Doctor Hua, please save my mother?" the young man surnamed Liu begged quickly.


    After careful inspection, Hua Yuan relaxed his breath: "fortunately, it was found in time. Coupled with the poor sealing of your house, your mother is not a big problem."


    The young man surnamed Liu was overjoyed at the speech and repeatedly bowed to thank the old Chinese.


    "However, it will take at least a few days to recover from carbon poisoning. Please go to the Mexican hospital for a few days, but don''t worry. As long as you are a patient with carbon poisoning, the Mexican hospital is free." Hua Yuan said.


    The treatment of carbon poisoning is free. This is a measure formulated by Huayuan in order to find a method to treat carbon poisoning as soon as possible.


    "Thank you, doctor Hua!" the young man surnamed Liu said gratefully.


    "Doctor Hua is really kind-hearted." everyone nodded one after another. Mexican hospital not only has superb medical skills, but also has noble medical ethics. Before, it launched free treatment of bone injuries, but now it has free treatment of carbon poisoning.


    Hua Yuan said loudly, "the harm of carbon poison can''t be underestimated. You can''t neglect it easily. Once something happens, you will regret it."


    "Please follow the doctor''s instructions!" the people quickly answered.


    At the moment, Fang is in a hurry with a group of public losers'' children.


    "Hua Lao!" Gong Shuhong said hello.


    "So it''s Mr. Gongshu?" Hua Yuan said in surprise.


    "Mr. Gongshu came this time, but he has built a stove to solve the carbon poison!" Hua Yuan moved in his heart.


    Gongshu Hong showed a trace of excitement and said, "fortunately, he didn''t lose his life!"


    Fang Zheng said loudly to the people, "the harm of charcoal poison is far-reaching. Fortunately, Mr. Gongshu is skilled and has created a special chimney stove. It only needs charcoal to burn until dawn, which can not only save charcoal, but also eliminate charcoal poison."


    "Seriously?" they were surprised.


    Fang nodded and said, "yes, Mr. Gongshu came today and specially sent a sample to yankangfang to let everyone personally experience the benefits of this chimney stove."


    Gongshu Hong nodded and said, "Lord Fang Zheng, since Liu is poisoned by charcoal, how about putting the pilot in Liu''s house?"


    "That''s very kind!" Fang Zheng nodded repeatedly.


    As soon as Gongshu Hong waved his hand, a group of Gongshu children came forward and installed the chimney stove already built in Liu''s house.


    The carbon in the carbon furnace is full of fire, and the rolling heat is constantly dissipated through the sealed external iron plate. This is a transformation of gongsonghong through the concept of heat conduction of Merton iron, and the effect is very good.


    The hot gas generated by the carbon furnace is directly excluded from the house through the iron chimney. The whole room is warm, there is no danger of carbon poison, and there is no smell of fireworks.


    "Even if it''s a long night, you only need to add charcoal once, and then semi close the vent, which is enough to burn all night!" Gong Shuhong personally demonstrated to all humanity.


    "Good! The public loser''s skill is really good." Hua Yuan couldn''t help praising him.


    When Hua Yuan saw the chimney stove, he was relieved that the harm of the charcoal poison of the stove must have been reduced to the lowest point. Seeing that Liu''s family had improved, he carried him into the medical car. The young man surnamed Liu asked his mother-in-law to watch the door, entertained the people, and left with the medical car.


    What Huayuan didn''t know was that the same thing happened not only in Yankang square and 108 square of Chang''an City, but all the public losers sent a sample.


    In the shortest time, a new carbon furnace named public transport furnace instantly became famous in Chang''an City, and the name of public transport home resounded through Chang''an City for the first time.

 Chapter 370

    One day, the public transport furnace prevailed in Chang''an city.


    The utility model has a simple structure, and the tin tube is very easy to build. Even ordinary blacksmiths can easily build it. In addition, the people have great demand for the utility model. As long as it is a built furnace, it doesn''t worry about selling at all.


    Needless to say, the blacksmiths in Chang''an City believe that all the blacksmiths in Datang can build it. I believe that this winter, the public output furnace will certainly become the most popular product in Datang. As long as it is a blacksmith, it will certainly make a lot of money this winter.


    Of course, the most profitable public losers are those who directly launch the public transport furnace.


    "Big brother!" the public transport wheel excitedly came in and said excitedly, "once our public transport furnace is launched, it will be sold out immediately."


    This time, the public losers not only completely restored their reputation, but also arranged in advance, forged a large number of public losers, and made a lot of money. It was simply fame and wealth.


    The public loser Hong laughed with pride. These are nothing. The real benefits are not these.


    "Gong Shuhong, Congratulations!" the smiling young supervisor handed the waist token made by the great craftsman representing the highest official identity of the craftsman to Gong Shuhong.


    "Thank you, little supervisor." Gongshu Hong pressed his excitement and took the waist token.


    More importantly, the public loser has a great craftsmanship personally sealed by the emperor, has an official reputation, and can be regarded as a preliminary foothold.


    "The public loser stove completely solved the harm of carbon poison in the Tang Dynasty. The public loser really deserves to be the descendant of the public loser class. He is better than the blue." the general flattered.


    "Where, where!" Gongshu Hong said with a bitter smile in his heart. The Gongshu stove is really good, but the heating method of mojiazi has to dump Gongshu for several blocks.


    Will be a minor prison, did not participate in the hundred discussion, where do you know the details.


    "The Gongshu family is the descendants of the founder of craftsmen, and the work department is the holy land of craftsmen all over the world. Adhering to the will of the founder of Gongshu, it is a match made in heaven. I wonder if Mr. Gongshu is willing to take office in our work department, or make a good story." the young supervisor invited him.


    Last time, he failed to invite Yang Siqi. Although he was not involved, he had a hard time in the Ministry of work. If he could bring the public loser to the Ministry of work, it would certainly become a big political capital for him.


    The public losers suddenly looked happy. Indeed, the Ministry of work is the holy land of craftsmen all over the world, and the treatment is quite rich. Even the children of public losers yearn for it. They didn''t expect that such an opportunity would be readily available.


    Gongshuhong was unmoved, but firmly shook his head and said, "thank you for your love! Gongshuhong has just come out of the mountain. He was just a rural savage and was not constrained, so he was not competent for the post of the work department."


    "Ah!"


    The sons of public losers suddenly looked disappointed.


    Jiang Zuo''s face was ugly. He didn''t expect Gongshu Hong to refuse so simply, and his heart was burning with anger.


    These various schools of thought were still in their era. They were arrogant one by one. The Mohist School refused the Ministry of work, and even the public losers did not pay attention to the Ministry of work.


    After the young supervisor left without hesitation, the public transport ship immediately worried and said, "brother, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Isn''t it a pity to miss it so much? Besides, it''s unwise to make such a bad relationship with the work department!"


    The children of other public losers also lamented one after another.


    Gongshu Hong proudly said, "if my Gongshu family wants to ask for an official, which of the past dynasties will not be empty seats. But think about it. If Gongshu family joins the Ministry, will today''s Gongshu furnace still belong to Gongshu family?"


    The public losers were suddenly silent.


    "As for the evil work department, you don''t have to worry. As long as there is Mohism and the name of our ancestors, the imperial court will naturally not move our public loser." the way to weigh is whether the emperor can use it again. The public loser has passed down from ancient times. What kind of experience has not been experienced.


    The sons of the public losers nodded one after another. They are the descendants of the public loser. How can they be subordinated to others? The emergence of the public loser furnace has greatly increased the public losers'' confidence in regaining the glory of their ancestors.


    "Build a good public transport furnace, which is the capital for the rise of our public transport family!" Gongshu Hong shouted.


    "Yes!" the sons of the public losers were full of energy.


    Before that, the public losers had been imitating the products of Mojia village. Although they didn''t say it, how could the public losers'' children have no number in their hearts? Only the public loser furnace in front of them gave the public losers a sense of glory.


    "Father, don''t you think that mojiazi wanted to build a public transport furnace?" the public transport Hao suddenly asked.


    When he put forward the idea of the public transport furnace, Li Shimin was absolutely amazed, and the other hundred people were amazed, but the Mexican family looked calm without any fluctuation, and then threw out the heating several times more advanced than the public transport furnace, This makes Gongshu Hong have doubts for a long time.


    Seeing the energetic public loser''s children on one side, Gong Shuhong said definitely, "no matter whether the Mo family has this idea or not, since it was proposed by my public loser, it is my public loser."


    Gongshuhao also nodded.


    "You send the detailed drawings of Gongshu furnace to Mohist School and let them be published in ink journals for imitation by other blacksmiths." Gongshu Hong takes out the detailed drawings of Gongshu furnace and gives them to Gongshu Hao.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "It''s a good way to lose!" Merton sighed with the drawing of the public transport furnace sent by Mo San.


    The craftsmanship of the public losers is indeed superb. In terms of workmanship, there is no gap between the public loser stove and the later stoves, and it has reached the peak of handicrafts.


    Mo San didn''t understand: "public losers are not afraid that other craftsmen will rob him of business after opening the drawings?"


    "Just how many stoves can the public losers build? The whole Tang Dynasty needs tens of millions of times more stoves. From Chang''an City, do you think any blacksmith shop can compete with the public losers?" Merton explained.


    The public loser has such a great reputation that once the public loser''s stove is sold, it will be sold out.


    "The theme of this issue of Ink magazine is based on a hundred suggestions, and the drawings of the public transport furnace are printed at the same time," Merton said.


    Mo San nodded and suddenly asked, "what about my Mohist heating?"


    Merton knew that Mo San was unconvinced and didn''t want the public loser to take the lead. He smiled and scolded: "you won''t put it in the next issue and make a serial."


    "OK!"


    Mo San immediately smiled and opened his way word by word.


    "By the way, print this issue of Ink magazine too!" Merton threw a pottery bottle to Mo Sany.


    "The secret skill of hair dyeing!" Mo San blurted out.


    As the most well-informed person in the whole Tang Dynasty, how could he know this secret skill of hair dyeing that makes people''s white hair turn black in an instant.

 Chapter 371

    "A hundred suggestions, a public furnace!"


    In Chang''an City, people looked at the ink magazine in their hands. Only then did they understand how the danger of carbon poison was relieved.


    "It is worthy of being a hundred schools of thought! Carrying the wisdom of China for thousands of years, many hundred schools have joined forces to eliminate the harm of carbon poisoning. Otherwise, we don''t know how many people will be endangered."


    Seeing the introduction of the hundred schools of thought in Ink magazine, people couldn''t help feeling No. for a moment, the hundred schools of thought were once again sought after by the citizens of Chang''an. The Mexican family also studied the hundred schools of thought, which was once again hotly discussed. Some even insisted that this would be the ultimate way of learning in the future.


    "The public loser is worthy of being the descendant of the public loser class. He even made the drawings of the public loser furnace public."


    Ordinary people pay attention to the opinions of hundreds of families, while the blacksmiths in Chang''an city are ecstatic when they see the drawings of the public transport furnace one by one. Therefore, they will get twice the result with half the effort by imitating the public transport furnace.


    However, what caused a sensation in this issue of Ink magazine was an insignificant advertisement in the corner of Ink magazine.


    Hair dyeing secret!


    "With a gentle wash, white hair can turn black!"


    In the ink magazine, Merton did not choose the black name of later generations. It was directly called the secret technique of hair dyeing. Even the advertising words were very straightforward.


    However, the impact of such humble advertising is comparable to that of a public furnace.


    In middle age, white hair is normal, but white hair has become a sign of aging.


    Each more white hair represents one point of his old age.


    Heroes grow old and beauties grow old. This is the most helpless thing in life. No matter who they are, they don''t want to see their white hair.


    Once the secret hair dyeing technique was sold, it immediately caused looting by the rich in Chang''an city.


    "Out of stock?"


    In the Mo mansion, Merton exclaimed.


    The Taoist priest Changsheng was also surprised and said, "I remember clearly. The first supply was tens of thousands of bottles of hair dyeing skills."


    Xu Jie said with a bitter smile: "if you return to Taoist priest, the secret technique of hair dyeing is really very popular. Once it is sold, it is immediately robbed by people, especially foreign merchants. It is the purchase of several boxes. It is out of stock in less than a day."


    "What''s the price?" Merton asked.


    Xu Jie stretched out a palm.


    "Five Wen?" Murton frowned.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "Fifty Wen a bottle."


    "You rob money!" Merton was startled.


    Fifty Wen a bottle, sold 10000 bottles a day, that''s 500 yuan. After taking out the pitiful cost, it''s almost like robbing money.


    Xu Jie stall said: "the secret skills to buy hair dyeing are all rich people. Fifty Wen a bottle is not expensive."


    Ordinary people run around for a living all their life. How can they care about a few white hairs on their heads? Most of the people who buy hair dyeing secrets are rich people. For rich people, a bottle of fifty Wen can really bear it.


    The immortal Taoist aside also suddenly realized how much money he could make by pretending to be a divine stick, pretending to play tricks and cajoling believers. Who could have thought that his secret hair dyeing skills could make so much money. If he had known so, what effort would he have made!


    "How many bottles of hair dyeing secret skills can Mojia village produce a day?" Merton asked.


    Xu Jie thought for a moment and said, "three thousand bottles!"


    Merton nodded and said, "first supply 3000 bottles a day and inform Mojia village to expand production immediately."


    "Expand production?" Xu Jie frowned. "Three thousand bottles are enough! If we expand production, how can there be so many people dyeing their hair?"


    Merton smiled and said, "hair is growing all the time. Even if you use the secret technique of hair dyeing, I''m afraid it will be less than one month. I''m afraid it will be regenerated with white hair. If you''re used to your black hair, how can you tolerate the regeneration of white hair? Won''t you dye it again at that time?"


    Xu Jie suddenly said, "this is not a one-time business. As long as you have used the secret technique of hair dyeing, I''m afraid you can''t live without it all your life."


    Merton smiled knowingly and said, "everyone has the heart to love beauty, old and young."


    Xu Jie nodded deeply convinced that there were several people who really bought the secret skills of hair dyeing. Most of them were people over the age of 40, and most of them were women.


    "Congratulations, elder brother!" Merton congratulated his eldest son.


    "I really deserve it!" the eldest son shook his head and smiled bitterly.


    I''m afraid there will be no less than 500 Guan a day in the future. After careful calculation, this is probably a large business of more than one million Guan. Without the assistance of Mohist school, he may not be able to do it anyway.


    Just when the three people were shocked by the broad prospects of their secret hair dyeing skills, Fu Bo with black hair came to report: "young master, businessmen from the western regions are visiting!"


    "Western merchants?" Merton frowned.


    Fu Bo saw the immortal Taoist and said, "it''s said that he came for the secret skill of hair dyeing!"


    Merton looked at each other and found that they probably underestimated the market of hair dyeing secret skills. In this world, people in the Tang Dynasty need hair dyeing secret skills. The transition around the Tang Dynasty is not unnecessary. The countries in the western regions are even more distant Persia, Dashi, Daqin and the Far West.


    Thinking of this, Merton immediately waved his hand and said, "invite them in."


    At this moment, a group of Hu merchants, led by tie Wu, entered the Mo mansion. When they saw Merton, they quickly saluted and said, "I''ve seen Lord mo."


    Tiewu has been acting as an agent for Mojia village recently. He has made a lot of contributions to Mojia village. He has the closest relationship with Mojia village. People elected tiewu as the representative to discuss with Mojia village.


    "Free, free!" Merton greeted with a smile. This is a group of God of wealth!


    "This must be Taoist priest Changsheng. Your hair dyeing secret skill is really unique in the world. Today, we come to visit Lord Mo and buy a batch of hair dyeing secret skills. The price is not a problem?" tie Wu saluted to Taoist priest Changsheng. They inquired very clearly and knew that the hair dyeing secret skill was invented by Taoist priest Changsheng.


    "This is our deposit!" a group of Hu merchants in the western regions presented boxes of gold and silver.


    Taoist priest Changsheng breathed slowly, and forced down the excitement in his heart. He said, "I have fully authorized the secret skill of hair dyeing to Mojia village for sale."


    "Lord Mo, we are all old friends. Please leave us some secret hair dyeing skills, and we can cooperate for a long time in this business. The price is easy to say." tiewu immediately turned to Merton on behalf of a group of Hu businessmen.


    Merton said with a smile, "the grassland and western regions also need hair dyeing skills?"


    Tiewu smiled and said without hesitation: "even the eagle is old one day, the older the eagle also needs these magical things."


    Other Hu merchants also nodded one after another. In their view, magic things such as hair dyeing are more important than silk. If they are used well, giving them to Wang, sun and nobles will certainly produce immeasurable value.


    Hu merchants traveled thousands of miles to Datang and naturally pursued the highest value. How can Hu merchants, who are extremely sensitive to wealth, be willing to miss such profiteering.


    Merton nodded, but he clearly remembered that among the four ancient civilizations, ancient India, ancient Egypt and ancient Babylon had black hair, even ancient Rome and ancient Greece had black hair. In addition, most people in the world had black hair. It can be seen how broad the market for hair dyeing secrets is.

 Chapter 372

    "One, two, three!"


    In the Imperial City, outside a green brick wall, tie an took several Mohist children to hold the handle and rotate the drill bit together. The very hard green brick in the hands of normal people is easily drilled through like tofu.


    "Young master, it''s done." tie an said.


    Merton nodded, walked around the door and knocked gently on the door.


    "Please come in!" a familiar voice came from inside.


    Merton opened the door and saw that Wei Zhengzheng was wearing official clothes and working in a serious manner. A pot of charcoal fire was burning in the house.


    "I''ve seen Lord Wei!" Merton saluted quickly.


    "I thought it was the mouse who made a hole in my wall. I didn''t expect it was you, boy. This is the imperial Yamen. You destroy the public property of the imperial court. Do you know what crime to commit?" Wei Zheng said with a straight face.


    Merton immediately smiled and said, "Lord Wei, you have wronged the boy. The boy was originally going to install heating for the emperor. Before he arrived at the palace, he received a decree to let the boy install heating for the three provinces and six departments first, and specially instructed to give priority to the Shangshu Province."


    Wei Zheng immediately got up in awe, saluted the palace and said, "I''m ashamed of my love for the emperor!"


    It has to be said that Li Shimin can have such great achievements. The means to buy people''s hearts are almost perfect. The heating method is specially built for Li Shimin, and Li Shimin can let himself endure the smoke and fire smell of charcoal fire and give priority to the installation of heating in three provinces and six departments.


    I can''t help admiring that I have gained the heart of civil and military affairs in the dynasty at one fell swoop.


    With a wave of his hand, Merton came in with a two foot wide and three foot long radiator, which was quickly assembled inside and outside the house.


    "This is the heating?" Wei Zheng looked at the iron pimple in the room curiously.


    How could Wei Zheng not know that the design of the public transmission furnace had made him ecstatic, and Merton''s idea of heating made him even more amazing.


    "That''s right!" Merton nodded. "The hot water flows out from the top, and then naturally flows out from the bottom. After discharge, it will return to the boiler and reheat. In this way, there will be no carbon poison and no risk of fire."


    Wei Zheng frowned and said, "I''m afraid this method costs a lot."


    The construction of heating is really cumbersome. It is necessary to build boilers, bury pipes and go through walls. The money consumed is not comparable to that of a carbon stove.


    Knowing that Wei Zheng had committed the old problem and wanted to persuade him to save money, Merton couldn''t help laughing and saying, "this is the important place of the imperial court and the center of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, safety comes first."


    Wei Zheng frowned and stopped talking. He looked at the charcoal brazier in the house and the radiator on the tall building. Even if he wanted to be frugal, he should also consider the feelings of the ministers, and he was wise to skip this topic


    Wei Zheng''s room was the last project in Shangshu province. Tie an LED several Mohist children to connect radiators quickly.


    "The young master has all been connected!" tiean reported.


    Merton nodded and said, "start heating!"


    In the boiler room, the high boiler is at least three meters away from the ground. With an order, a Mohist son opened the valve. The hot water spread all over Shangshu province with the pipeline using gravity and water pressure, but there is still residual temperature when it flows from the drainage to the boiler room again. "


    A huge water tanker will pour the remaining warm water into the boiler again, and the heating of the whole Shangshu province has been officially installed.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, in this era, all are on the first floor. Without water pressure equipment, the use of gravity to heat the whole Shangshu province is the limit of technology in this era.


    Rao is so. It''s enough to amaze the whole Tang Dynasty.


    "Lord Wei! The boy is gone." Merton


    In the Shangshu room, Merton touched the hot radiator, nodded with satisfaction, bowed to Wei Zheng and took the charcoal basin out of the room.


    Among the Shangshu provinces, the central Shu Province, the Menxia Province, the Ministry of punishment, the Ministry of rites, the Ministry of people, the Ministry of officials, the Ministry of war, and the three provinces and six departments have been installed one by one.


    This time, the Mohist school was in the limelight in front of all officials. Everywhere, Merton can be said to have received a warm welcome. The effect of heating is almost many times better than that of charcoal basin.


    "Lord Mo, after Lord Mo is busy, please go to my house for a chat. I''ve long wanted to talk with Lord Mo about the idea of cultivating vertical and horizontal people." in the ceremony department, Linghu de Yu smiled and tried to invite Merton to his house.


    Merton knows what he means when he hears the string. Where does Linghu dehu want to talk to him about this? It is clear that he sees the benefits of heating. The purpose is to install heating in Linghu''s house.


    "Of course, of course! The boy wanted to visit Lord Linghu''s house for a long time, but he was afraid of being abrupt and couldn''t go. Please forgive me!" Merton smiled very hard. These old foxes talked about business and pretended to be around the bush.


    "I''ll be waiting for you." Linghu De Fu got the answer he wanted and nodded with satisfaction.


    Linghu''s invitation was not an exception. Merton received a thick bundle of invitations all the way down.


    Merton handed a bundle of invitations directly to Tie''an and said, "go down and sort them out. Install them in batches according to official rank and titles."


    Tie an nodded and put the invitation in her arms.


    "By the way, don''t be soft when making an offer. These officials have plenty of money!" Merton thought and turned to remind him.


    "Er! That''s not good!" iron Ann frowned.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "the more so, the more reassuring they are. I''m afraid they don''t want to install it for free in Mojia village?"


    A little money can''t be compared with a favor owed to the Mohist family. All officials are naturally willing to pay both money and goods.


    Of course, except for the old man cheng Yaojin, if you want to get a penny from him, you will win.


    The last stop was the work department. When Merton entered the work department, Duan Lun did not appear, but a young seven grade official of the work department came out to receive him.


    Merton didn''t mean to take people to install it directly, but to Merton''s surprise, the young ministry official followed the whole process and was intoxicated.


    "Have you ever understood?" Merton said softly behind the young official.


    The young official was fascinated. When he heard the speech, he suddenly aroused his spirits. Seeing Merton behind him, he quickly saluted and said, "Lord Merton, forgive me. I''m not cheating on my teacher,......"


    Merton waved his hand and said, "the Mohist school didn''t steal the teacher. If the apprentice is willing to learn, the teacher will give him all his money. If you want to learn, you can assemble the heating yourself. I''m afraid it won''t be possible to repair the heating of the imperial court in the future. In my opinion, you''re a suitable candidate."


    The young official immediately brightened his eyes and bowed down and said, "lower official Yu Wenbo, thank you for your guidance."


    "Yuwenbo? Yuwenkai''s descendants?" Merton said in his heart.


    Yu Wenkai was a great man who presided over the construction of Chang''an city at the beginning of that year. Chang''an City Palace, each square city, road design and drainage facilities were all ahead of the world, and all these came from Yu Wenkai.


    "I''m ashamed of my grandfather''s name!" Yu Wenbo said shamefully.

 Chapter 373

    It was a great surprise to meet Yu Wenkai''s descendants in the Ministry of work. If the heating in the imperial palace is damaged and repaired in the future, Yu Wenkai can naturally take advantage of the situation. As for his future achievements, it depends on Yu Wenkai''s own fortune.


    After the installation of the Ministry of works, Merton has only one task to complete, that is the palace.


    In the palace.


    Merton looked at the magnificent Tai Chi hall, took a deep breath, turned to tie an and said, "let''s start!"


    Tie an trembled in his heart. The drill bit in his hand couldn''t help but give a meal. He hesitated and said, "young master, we really want to break through the Tai Chi hall."


    Rao shitie''an is bold, but his palm still trembles in the face of the Tai Chi hall. This is the place where the emperor went to court!


    "Nonsense, in order to install heating today, the emperor stopped working for one day. It must be completed before today." Merton said unhappily.


    Although he suspected that Li Shimin''s strike for a day was probably an excuse to rest, it did provide convenience for him to install heating. If he couldn''t finish the work, it would be difficult to explain.


    Tie an and others trembled in their palms and drilled through the Tai Chi Hall three times in a row. Pound, the supervisor, jumped his eyelids.


    "Well, you only have half an hour." pound waved and motioned the guard to open the gate of the Tai Chi hall.


    "Half an hour!" Merton more confirmed that Li Shimin took the opportunity to be lazy.


    Tiean and others naturally did not dare to slack off. They picked up the radiator and began to install it. Taiji hall is the highest building in the whole Imperial Palace, with a very large space.


    Merton directly connects multiple heaters in series. In this way, when going to court in the future, the Tai Chi hall will be as warm as spring.


    "Add another one to this place," Merton ordered, pointing to a position only by the gate.


    Tiean came to the position designated by Merton and frowned: "young master, this position is too backward. I''m afraid it won''t be very good if the heating effect is installed here."


    "Ha ha!" pound''s strange voice sounded behind them: "OK, Mo boy knows that this is where he stood up."


    When tie settled down, he suddenly sighed in his heart and said, "young master is worthy of being a young master. I dare to do it!"


    Merton''s face was not red and his heart did not jump. "It''s natural to add more heating when the wind runs at the door, otherwise it will affect the temperature of the whole hall. It''s very necessary to add one more here."


    Tie an nodded without hesitation and said, "what the young master said is reasonable. It''s a little thoughtless."


    Looking at Tie''an''s position at the door without hesitation and adding a radiator, pound pulled out the corners of his mouth, turned his head and couldn''t bear to look directly at him.


    After the installation of Taiji hall, the heating installation of the whole Imperial Palace began to speed up.


    "Heating pipes are laid, all along the road?" Merton commanded.


    "Young master, if we pass the pipes through these gardens, we can save half the distance," tie an said, holding the drawing and pointing to the deciduous garden.


    Suddenly, the palace maid was talking and laughing with her companions. When she heard the speech, her body was stiff and her face was pale.


    Merton shook his head slightly and said, "don''t be so troublesome. You''d better lay it along the roads in the palace to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of heating pipes in the future."


    Tie settled down and said, "what the young master said is reasonable. It''s a little thoughtless."


    The maid of honor on one side recovered her look and talked and laughed with her companions on the other side.


    Merton looked at the deciduous garden and sighed, "the flowers here must be very bright next year."


    Then the heating was laid smoothly. Neither gold and silver treasures arbitrarily discarded by the kings and grandchildren of the previous dynasty nor other things were dug up.


    In fact, not many people in the palace have the opportunity to enjoy heating, mainly for the prince, Princess and empress.


    With the overtime work of Merton, the heating installation in the whole palace was finally completed before the second snow.


    Outside Chongwen hall, the cold wind roared and the snow was falling.


    In the room, radiators keep emitting heat, and the whole room is as warm as spring. Compared with the cold outside the window, it is like a paradise on earth.


    "Inform the emperor that the heating has been fully laid by now." in Chongwen hall, Merton adjusted the radiator to be the hottest, which is the report.


    "Well, that''s all for today!" Li Shimin is examining the schoolwork of several princes! When Merton said so, he stopped.


    The princes were immediately pardoned. They were relieved and threw themselves into Merton''s grateful expression. One by one, they didn''t avoid the cold and ran to the snow to play.


    "The ancients said that it would be a great success to practice three or nine times in winter and three or five times in summer." Li Shimin felt the warmth in the room and couldn''t help sighing.


    All along, the students have worked hard. They still study hard in the hottest dog days in summer and the coldest days in winter.


    However, with saltpeter ice making in summer, the dog days can be as cool as autumn, and with heating in winter, it can be as warm as spring.


    Ten years of hard study may also be ten years of hard study in a warm window. However, all these changes began with Merton.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the world may not have to go through suffering to become a talent. Suffering from heat stroke in dog days and frostbite in 39 days is not a condition for becoming a talent. In fact, most of the time, suffering is an obstacle to a person''s success."


    Li Shimin glanced at Merton and said coldly, "who complains all day about his poverty when he was a child and the hardships of the Mohist village?"


    Merton immediately smiled shyly and said, "no matter how poor and bitter the boy is, he doesn''t lack food and clothing in Mojia village. Just after experiencing some poor days, the boy wants to make Mojia village rich, so that future generations won''t suffer like me."


    "Crooked reasoning and heresy!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    All along, the imperial court has been promoting the idea of peace and contentment. Merton''s words are just the opposite.


    Merton smiled and said, "boy, I don''t believe you can sweat all over in dog days and shiver all over in cold days. On the contrary, sitting in a warm room in winter, I''m afraid that''s how you can put your mind on learning."


    "So you donated a set of heating equipment to the Imperial College." Li Shimin said.


    "The boy is also studying in the Imperial College. Being happy alone is not as good as being happy with others. How can the boy enjoy the benefits of heating alone?" Merton said righteously.


    "Do you know if someone wrote you to corrupt the minds of Chinese students?" Li Shimin said coldly.


    Merton smiled and said, "if someone thinks it''s inappropriate for the boy to do this, you can say it yourself. The boy will obey."


    Li Shimin suddenly groaned bitterly. It''s cold in winter. After the Guozijian students enjoy the benefits of heating, how can they be willing to study hard in the cold window in a warm school.


    Anyone who speaks against the installation of heating will certainly offend all Guozijian students.


    Uh, uh! And all the students in the future.


    Li Shimin waved and drove Merton away from the palace! Your boy just doesn''t stop. He''s still out of sight and out of mind.

 Chapter 374

    The second heavy snow fell as scheduled, and the whole Chang''an city was covered with snow again,


    When Merton walked into the Imperial College under the snow, he was warmly welcomed by Qin Huaiyu.


    "Merton, well done this time!" Qin Huaiyu looked like a dog leg, took the books in Merton''s hand and rode in front and behind.


    "No! I can''t afford it!" Merton quickly stopped.


    "I can afford it. You are now a great hero of the Imperial College. Do you know how many imperial college students have been saved by this heating? Which imperial college students don''t read your good!" Qin Huaiyu said excitedly.


    "At that time, Liu Yinian tried to stop the Imperial College from installing heating, saying that it was easy to turn thrift into extravagance, and it was difficult to turn extravagance into thrift. But we were so angry that two students fell to the ground on the spot in calligraphy class. Ten students stretched out their frostbitten hands and said that they couldn''t write calligraphy." Chumo danced and danced.


    Merton smiled knowingly and listened with interest to the struggle history of Guozijian students.


    "What''s more, all the students stomped their feet when Liu Yinian was in class. You don''t know the noise. The whole Imperial College can hear it." Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    "Ah!"


    Merton was shocked and looked at Qin Huaiyu and said, "this shouldn''t be your bad idea!"


    Qin Huaiyu immediately looked wronged by Tianda and said, "how is this possible? I watched brother Wei Chi stamp his feet, so I followed him!"


    Merton looked at Wei Chi Baolin in disbelief. He didn''t expect that this honest and honest guy had learned bad.


    Wei Chi baolinton blushed, held his neck high and said, "I''m so cold!"


    "Nonsense, who is not cold!" Qin Huaiyu rolled her eyes and said, resolutely refusing to admit her crime.


    "Finally, he offered a toast and agreed to install heating, which was the only way to solve the problem!" Chumo said happily. The students worked together to change the decision of the Imperial College, which was a great victory for all the students.


    For a long time, the students of the Imperial College have always respected teachers and respected the way. They can be said to obey the teacher''s words. However, in the face of cold, it is rare for everyone to work together. After all, the winter practice of March 9th is not just shouting a slogan. How can they say all the pain.


    The four went on their way and met a group of Guozijian students, who came to say hello one after another.


    "Mojiazi, I''m waiting for you about heating!"


    "But even so, I won''t release water for the big test at the end of the year. I''ll wait for a decision at that time!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton saluted one by one. I can''t help feeling very much. All along, my popularity in the Imperial College is extremely poor. I didn''t expect a heating to burst my popularity.


    End of the year exam!


    The purpose of Merton''s hurried back to the Imperial College is to participate in the national college entrance examination at the end of the year, which is the key to whether he can successfully graduate from the Imperial College.


    In fact, whether the mojiazi can pass the year-end exam or not, his career in the Imperial College is doomed to end. The only difference is whether he goes out from the Imperial College invigilator or the Imperial College clears him out.


    With the pursuit of many Guozijian students, Merton returned to bingshe school all the way.


    When I stepped into the school, I immediately felt a heat wave coming on my face. There were four radiators working in bingshe school, and the house was as warm as spring.


    Merton, like the stars supporting the moon, returned to his position, but suddenly found that his radiator was just on his right hand, so he couldn''t help laughing.


    "Tiean has a heart!" Merton nodded secretly.


    Dangdang, with the ringing of the bell, the year-end exam officially began.


    With a squeak, the door of the school opened wide, and Liu Yinian''s figure came in mixed with the cold wind. The whole bingsheton was quiet.


    Liu Yinian looked around for a week and looked at Merton sitting at the end. A look of resentment flashed in his eyes. If it weren''t for the heating of Mohist school, he wouldn''t be called the laughing stock of all teachers and students in the school.


    Liu Yinian is bent on complaining about Merton, but he doesn''t know that his move is not only opposed by the whole school, but also why other doctors and students are willing to endure the smoke and fire smell of charcoal stove.


    "The imperial court attaches great importance to the year-end examination. Even your majesty has issued a decree to treat the year-end examination strictly!" Liu Yinian shouted.


    Suddenly, all the students sighed and turned their eyes to Merton. If it weren''t for Merton, how could an ordinary Imperial College year-old exam attract the emperor''s attention.


    Liu Yinian sneered, stared at Merton and said word by word: "recently, there are some students in the Imperial College who intend to provoke the relationship between teachers and students and corrode the students'' will. The Imperial College has made the following provisions for the calligraphy examination. The number of calligraphy words in the annual examination is 800 words."


    "Eight hundred words!" the crowd suddenly sighed.


    In their limited time, it is not a simple task for them to write 800 words and keep the font neat, unless they can use the quill pen as skillfully as Merton.


    No! Such a proposition is not specially prepared for Merton. This is not Liu Yinian''s style!


    But Merton had no ecstasy, but a bad feeling.


    Sure enough, Liu Yinian''s voice changed: "and this year''s exam, pencils and quills are prohibited."


    "Ah!"


    There was an uproar.


    Everyone knows that Merton can''t use a brush at all. If pencils and quills are prohibited, isn''t it that the Mohists are firmly at the bottom this time.


    If Mohist calligraphy was inferior, it would be almost impossible for Merton to pass the year-end exam.


    "It''s not fair. Merton doesn''t know how to write with a brush at all. What we''re going to test is calligraphy. As long as it''s well written, what pen can''t be used!" Qin Huaiyu suddenly rose and retorted.


    Others nodded silently. They went into the restaurant for dinner. As long as the food was delicious, they could see whether the cook looked good or not?


    Liu Yinian said coldly, "the imperial college entrance examination at the end of the year is a major event of the imperial court. How can it be chaotic? All kinds of miscellaneous things can be brought to the table."


    Merton moved in his heart and got up and said, "the student''s use of the quill pen was agreed by the student and the teacher at the beginning. Such a sudden change of fortune, the student refused to accept it and had to report it to the sacrificial Lord."


    Merton knew that even if the Imperial College wanted to suppress himself, this kind of thing would not be on the table.


    Sure enough, when Merton finished, Liu Yinian looked flustered and said sternly, "you can go, but if you leave the examination room this time, I won''t wait for you for the examination. My teacher will judge you to abandon the examination this time."


    Merton''s body shape, I''m afraid Liu Yinian''s real purpose is here! As long as you abandon the exam, you will certainly fail the big exam at the end of the year.

 Chapter 375

    Seeing this, Liu Yinian showed a proud smile and said, "the content of this writing is based on studying hard in a cold window. You can make your own proposition."


    The focus of calligraphy is on the font, not the content. Cold window hard reading is a common content, which is naturally difficult for many students. However, in the warm school, Liu Yinian uses cold window hard reading as the main purpose, which shows that he is still worried about heating.


    "As for Merton, I can give you a special license. As long as you don''t use pencils and quills, I can keep one eye open and one eye closed." Liu Yinian said proudly.


    Merton nodded when he heard the speech, put aside all the quill pens and pencils on the table, picked up the ink and inkstone on the table and began to grind ink like other students.


    Liu Yinian suddenly showed a smile of victory. He didn''t believe that Merton could play any tricks without pencils and quills.


    However, he didn''t wait long for Liu Yinian to be proud. He suddenly found that Merton did not pick up the brush next to him, but took out a small finger thick and thin, three inch long steel product from his arms.


    Liu Yi secretly said that it was not good. He saw Merton open the steel products in his hands, put the sharp end into the ink of the inkstone, and even inhaled the ink into the steel.


    "Pen!"


    Merton secretly said that he was lucky. Fortunately, in order to prepare his gift before the graduation of the National Academy of Sciences, the Mojia village made and sent the pen in advance, otherwise it would be planted in Liu Yinian''s hands today.


    Many students of bingshe opened their mouths in surprise when they saw the pen in Merton''s hand.


    "Steel can make pens! What else can defeat Merton."


    Qin Huaiyu three people are not surprised. If Merton does something more outrageous one day, they can accept it calmly.


    Liu Yinian was so regretful that he even wanted to slap his mouth. If he hadn''t been cheap, how could the Mexican family have had the opportunity to take out this pen.


    But there was a faint hope in his heart that Merton could not write a good font with this new pen.


    After all, calligraphy is better than calligraphy, not how fancy the pen is.


    Merton was holding a pen, holding a familiar hand feeling, and his heart was slightly excited. Every time he made a familiar object for later generations, his sense of belonging was one more point.


    "Studying hard in the cold window." Merton thought about the topic. Liu Yinian''s idea was to use the example of studying hard in the cold window for ten years to attack Merton''s contribution to creating heating.


    If Merton writes according to Liu Yinian''s idea, wouldn''t he be right in Liu Yinian''s routine? Merton thinks a little with his pen in his hand.


    Since Liu Yinian still wants his students to go back to the cold window to study hard, he can only do the opposite. Merton had an idea and wrote: "I love my teacher, I love my body more. No, it''s the truth."


    The 800 word article was written by Merton with a pen in his hand. It was completed in two minutes


    "Master, it''s already written!" Merton showed a confident smile and got up to give his calligraphy to Liu Yinian.


    The other Guozijian students immediately sighed in their hearts, and looked at the pen in Merton''s hand. It was also 800 words. They had just written about 200, but Merton had finished writing.


    And just now everyone could see clearly that the steel pen in Merton''s hand didn''t need to dip in ink. Only after sucking ink once at the beginning, 800 words were written at one go.


    When they write with a brush, they have to dip in ink once to write a few words. This steel pen is much more convenient than their brush.


    Seeing Merton get up with a thin rice paper and walk onto the lecture table, all the students suddenly flashed a thought. It is convenient and fast. They can write 800 words at a time. Moreover, the font is fine. A piece of paper is enough to hold thousands of words. Can Liu Yinian really resist such a writing tool?


    Liu Yinian was uneasy. The only thing he could pray for now was that Mozi was not skilled in using the new pen and could not write good words. In this way, he had reason to fail the exam.


    The light rice paper was placed on the lecture table. Liu Yinian''s eyes were black when he saw the small regular script with square words and iron painting and silver hook in front of him.


    It seems that small block letters naturally fit the pen. The small block letters written by the pen are at least half smaller than those written by ordinary brush, and they are dignified, symmetrical and neat.


    Liu Yinian sat down in his chair. He knew that this time Mohist Zi had escaped.


    An hour later, the bell rang at the end of the book study examination.


    When Liu Yinian returned to the prison house, a group of Guozijian doctors immediately surrounded him.


    "Dr. Liu, where is the masterpiece of Mohism this time? Don''t let me enjoy it!" Dr. Simen and Liu Yinian are the best friends. Seeing Liu Yinian come in, he smiled and went forward to say.


    "Yes, we heard that Mohist had handed in his paper in two quarters of an hour. I think he must have given up!" the doctor of Imperial College smiled.


    Other Guozijian doctors immediately chuckled. He immediately knew Liu Yinian''s plan, and they saw no lack of participation in the idea of the bitter theme of the cold window, 800 word length, and banning pencils and quills. They all decided that this time the Mohist school had been completely planted.


    Liu Yinian shook his head with a wry smile, reached out from the end of the examination paper, took out a thin paper and put it in front of everyone.


    Seeing the neat small block letters, all the Guozijian doctors were dumbfounded one by one.


    "Don''t you mean forbidding the use of quill pens?" the doctor of four disciplines said in amazement.


    Liu Yinian shook his head and said, "Mohist didn''t use a quill pen?"


    "Well..." the crowd looked at the same handwriting as the goose feather pen and didn''t understand.


    Liu Yinian said bitterly, "Mohist did not use a goose feather pen, but a pen made of steel."


    "A pen made of steel!" all the Imperial College doctors immediately felt that their brains were not enough. If they wanted to break their brains, they couldn''t think of how to write with steel as a pen.


    "This pen only dipped in ink once and wrote 800 words without stopping." Liu Yinian was also refreshed today.


    "Write 800 words at a time!"


    When Dr. Guozijian saw the calligraphy in his hand again, he immediately did not despise it. As a scholar, the biggest trouble in writing is not the number of strokes, but dipping in ink again and again, and the ink will affect the writing effect when the ink is thick and light.


    "This is a pen!" Shen Hongcai''s voice came from behind the crowd.


    They quickly looked back and saw Shen Hongcai and Kong Yingda standing behind them, each holding a three inch long steel object.


    Liu Yinian couldn''t help but shrink his eyes. Isn''t this the steel pen that Mohist Zi just used to write?

 Chapter 376

    "Wine worship Lord? How could you have such a pen!" Liu Yinian said in a surprised voice.


    "This is a new pen just sent by the Mohist school. It is called pen. Both the tip and body are made of steel." Kong Yingda handed the pen to the people to watch.


    "Pen!"


    "Take steel as a pen!"


    Dr. Guozijian looked at the pen in his hand. They only heard Liu Yinian talk about it. When they saw the pen made of steel, they were still shocked.


    Liu Yinian took the pen and felt that it was cold. It was indeed made of steel. On the silver metal cap, there was a small block letter "Confucianism".


    At this time, Mojia village gave Kong Yingda engraved Confucian characters for the commemorative pens specially made by hundreds of schools, and Shen Hongcai engraved arithmetic characters. The other 100 schools each had pens engraved with their own names.


    Shen Hongcai took the pen engraved with the word "Suan" and gently opened the cap to reveal the silver tip of the pen. "This pen is an upgraded version of the goose feather pen. The skilled Mohist craftsman takes iron as the bone and steel as the tip of the pen. He went further in the principle of the goose feather pen. Absorbing ink at one time is enough to use half a day."


    "Half a day!" the crowd was shocked, which was much more than the thousands of words they had imagined before.


    "If you write with steel, won''t you cut the paper?" Dr. Simen said strangely.


    "Of course not! The nib of the pen is made to be extremely smooth. Instead of feeling dry, it is extremely smooth." Shen Hongcai said, picked up the pen and gently scratched it on a piece of paper. It is really easy and fast.


    "Pen, brush!"


    In the prison, two pens and a group of brushes were placed in two rows, next to Merton''s book posts, which were also visited by other students side by side.


    It has been compared, and the advantages and disadvantages of both sides are clear at a glance. Compared with pens, a series of shortcomings such as slow writing, ink consumption, large writing and so on are exposed.


    The only good thing is that the brush is suitable for the current writing method. There are many users, and the pen must follow the new writing method. It will take a long time to promote it.


    "By the way, how much does this pen cost?" the doctor of Imperial College suddenly asked.


    Shen Hongcai shook his head and said, "at present, the Mohist village has closely made hundreds of commemorative pens and does not sell them. If you want to sell them in the future, the price must not be much higher in the style of Mohism!"


    The hearts of the people suddenly sank.


    The pen is not a simple goose feather pen. The fact that the pen can not dip in ink alone is enough to attract many people to buy it. If the pen is spread on a large scale in Datang, it will certainly have an impact on the existing calligraphy and writing format.


    "Worship Lord! I have used the brush for thousands of years in China, and countless generations of literati have used the brush to form a brilliant calligraphy culture. How can it be destroyed by a yellow haired child''s nonsense? Please play the imperial court to ban this pen." Liu Yinian was frightened.


    Calligraphy is the foundation of his foothold in the Imperial College. If one day everyone writes with a pen, what is the significance of his calligraphy doctor.


    Shen Hongcai sneered: "The people of yin and Shang Dynasties engraved bones and left words. In the Shang and Zhou dynasties, inscriptions were replaced by calligraphy. In the pre-Qin period, calligraphy was popular to replace inscriptions. However, students in the Tang Dynasty spent a lot of time studying, mostly on pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Pen writing can save 70% of ink and 60% of paper. In my opinion, this is the gospel of millions of students and the inevitable process of pen and ink development. Are you a doctor of calligraphy I want to be enterprising, but I''m narrow-minded and want to ban it. You can come out for the students all over the world? "


    Shen Hongcai said impolitely that when he took the initiative to teach the number of Tianzhu in the Imperial College, Liu Yinian fell behind the well. The two had long been in the same situation. At the moment, naturally, he would not show mercy to Liu Yinian.


    "Don''t spit out blood. Once the pen comes out, my Chinese millennium writing rules will be destroyed. Who can bear such responsibilities?" Liu Yinian argued loudly.


    "As like as two peas obviously," Shen Hongcai retorted, "in his view, the pen is almost identical to the original figure of Shen Hongcai when he meets the Tianzhu number. The benefits and impacts are obviously obvious.


    It''s just interesting that in the face of this revolutionary change, the two Dr. Guozi chose a different way to deal with it.


    During their debate, Kong Yingda fell into meditation. He had no idea about the change of writing rules. No matter how the writing was changed, Confucianism or Confucianism had no change in its spiritual content.


    Even for other schools of thought, calligraphy has the greatest impact. No wonder Liu Yinian is like a cat with a trampled tail.


    Moreover, Merton directly handed this pen to everyone in a hundred families. If Confucianism opposes it, I''m afraid it will fall on people''s lips.


    Kong Yingda pondered for a moment and said slowly, "the pen is a new thing. It has both advantages and disadvantages. If you say to ban it rashly, I''m afraid it''s difficult to explain to the students all over the world."


    The doctors could not help nodding. At the moment, the brush is the mainstream. Just after Mohist Zi launched a brush, Confucianism is like a great enemy. Isn''t that telling the world that they are afraid of Mohism.


    "Using a pen or a brush is a voluntary act of students. If we interfere indiscriminately, we will only cause trouble!" Kong Yingda was very open. Even if he wrote to the court, I''m afraid it would be difficult to pass the law banning pens, and would offend the majority of poor students, which would cause heavy losses to Confucianism.


    "Let''s do this and watch the pen replace the brush step by step." Liu Yinian said anxiously.


    Shen Hongcai sneered, "maybe it''s not necessarily to create a new kind of calligraphy!"


    Kong Yingda raised his hand and stopped the quarrel between them. He said, "what pen students use on weekdays, the Imperial College will not interfere, and has no right to interfere. However, it must be unified and standardized in the year-old examination, otherwise it is easy to be suspected of fraud. In the future, the Imperial College Examination and the future imperial examination can only use a brush."


    Kong Yingda''s words are well founded and high sounding. If everyone else uses a brush and only one uses a pen, it''s not clear at a glance who this volume is.


    "It''s wise to offer wine!" Liu Yinian said with great joy.


    All things are inferior. Only reading is high. With the National Academy of Sciences and the imperial examination as the baton, the brush has occupied an absolute advantage. It has a weapon to fight back against the pen. After all, in terms of personal future and saving money and convenience, students will naturally know how to choose.


    "That Mohist''s this year''s exam?" the doctor of four subjects was surprised.


    "Separate the examination paper from other students, and the marking of Mohist school will be reviewed separately!" Kong Yingda said.


    If it weren''t for this year''s exam, there were too many concerns about Mohism, so it''s not suitable to cause more trouble. Kong Yingda is afraid that even this time Merton is included.


    Shen Hongcai said coldly, "how many people are really officials? If most people in the whole Tang Dynasty use pens, how can a small number of students change the overall situation.


    "Well, this year''s exam continues. Next, four subjects!" Kong Yingda looks at the doctor of four subjects


    The doctor of four schools snorted coldly and went to bingshe with his examination paper.

 Chapter 377

    The four schools teach Confucian classics, which are the same in nature as Imperial College and Guozi school, but most of the students taught are poor children, which is also Li Shimin''s way of balance.


    It is reasonable to say that Dr. Simen, a professor who is a poor child, is ecstatic about the emergence of pens. However, Dr. Simen has always been friendly with Dr. Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy. He is the most stereotyped. Among the doctors, he is the one who dislikes Merton most.


    Walking into the warm spring like C house, Dr. Simen was not a bit happy, but frowned. He himself was a model of studying hard in a cold window. He was poor at home and had to study hard in a yellow window for ten years to have today''s status. In his opinion, the warm spring like classroom is probably the hotbed that erodes the students'' mind.


    Dr. Simen looked at Merton coldly, picked up the examination paper and said coldly, "this is the code of ethics of heaven and earth. You are a teacher for one day and a father for life. You study in the Imperial College and all teachers teach you carefully. Today''s examination questions of the four schools are to study and ask teachers."


    The students couldn''t help sighing. Although the four doctorates didn''t directly point out, they could ask their teachers to tell them about the benefits of the teacher''s way. It''s not a counterattack to their collective opposition to the doctorate of calligraphy.


    "Study and ask teachers!"


    Merton looked at the poor eyes of the four doctorates and sighed slightly in his heart. The four doctorates mentioned the king of heaven and earth and asked for teachers again, not to regain the dignity of teachers.


    Merton felt a sigh in his heart. These masters were really angry. The students just fought for some benefits for themselves and refuted the master once. These masters immediately hugged each other like a sworn enemy.


    Dr. simenxue looked at Merton''s frowning expression and snorted coldly in his heart. As long as he studied in the Imperial College for a day, he could not deny the Imperial College''s education. His biggest purpose in setting this test question was to make it difficult for the Mexican family.


    Merton pondered hard. He had been more than half the examination time, but he still couldn''t start writing. Suddenly, Merton looked up at the four doctorates in master''s clothes. His eyes lit up. There was an article on the subject of learning and asking teachers in future generations, which might be able to solve the problem.


    Merton took a deep breath, picked up his pen and wrote two words on the rice paper - "Shi Shuo".


    "Ancient scholars must have teachers. Teachers, therefore, preach and learn to solve doubts. People are not born with knowledge, who can be free from doubts?..."


    "Shi Shuo" is an ancient article written by Han Yu, the head of the eight masters of the Tang and Song dynasties. The full text is more than 500 words. Merton is full of energy. It takes a little more than a moment to approach the end.


    At the end of his writing, Merton couldn''t help pausing. In his previous life, Han Yu wrote to Li pan, Li''s son, encouraging him to study and ask his teacher. Of course, Merton can''t copy all of them.


    Merton thought a little, smiled knowingly, and wrote: "Merton, a son of the Mohist school, is 15 years old. He is good at ancient prose. He is familiar with the six arts classics. He doesn''t stick to the times and learns from hundreds of schools. His special work" teacher''s theory "can benefit himself."


    With a stroke of his pen, Merton directly wrote Han Yu''s gift to Li pan as a gift to himself. In this way, he can justify himself.


    Doctor of four disciplines, seeing that Merton kept writing with his head down, couldn''t help showing a proud smile. In his opinion, the mojiazi had fallen into his trap.


    As the bell rang, the four school year-old examination ended.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them gathered around Merton and asked about Merton''s work. Merton just shook his head and showed a simple, honest and shy smile.


    "Oh!"


    Qin Huaiyu three people suddenly.


    In the cell.


    As soon as the four doctorates came back, all the doctorates immediately surrounded them.


    "Come on, take out the test paper of mojiazi!" said Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College.


    Dr. Simen was surprised and said, "brother Ma, why are you in a hurry? This time, Mohist Zi didn''t start writing until half the time. I think he can''t write any good parallel prose."


    Parallel prose is a style of writing with two words and sentences opposite each other. Because it is commonly used in four word sentences and six word sentences, it is also called "four or six words" or "parallel four and six li". It mainly pays attention to the neat antithesis and sonorous rhythm. It began in the northern and Southern Dynasties, especially in the Tang Dynasty, and became the main format for literati to write articles in the Tang Dynasty.


    Ma Jiayun smiled and said, "if other people don''t take it to heart, but mojiazi is different. Since he entered the Imperial College, he has always been amazing in poetry and articles. Maybe he can find another way."


    "I don''t know what the topic of this examination paper is?" asked Ma Jiayun, doctor of Imperial College.


    The doctor of four disciplines showed a successful smile and said, "study and ask teachers."


    People couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. This question can be said to be regular, but the purpose of the four doctorates was immediately understood and they couldn''t help nodding their appreciation.


    Ma Jiayun frowned slightly. This question is too formal. I''m afraid it''s difficult to write a good article.


    Soon, Merton''s unique article was found out and placed in front of the doctors.


    Master said!


    Ma Jiayun trembled in his heart and instantly remembered another article by Merton, "Ma Shuo", which was destined to be handed down in future generations. If Merton''s "Shi Shuo" could have the level of "Ma Shuo", they would be lucky today.


    "Ancient scholars must have teachers..."


    "People are not born to know, who can have no doubt..."


    The opening article made everyone frown, not that Merton wrote badly, but that Merton did not write parallel prose, but used ancient prose.


    In the literary circles of the Tang Dynasty where parallel prose was popular, there were very few people who used ancient prose. Merton''s use of ancient prose writing was very inconvenient.


    "Stand out and innovate!" the doctor of four schools could not help but snort coldly, and said in his heart that this was the death of the Mo family, who gave him a low score, even if others had nothing to say.


    However, other doctors only frown, but the more they read, the more dignified the application between their eyebrows.


    "Therefore, there is no noble or cheap, no long or little, the existence of Tao and the existence of teachers."


    When Ma Jiayun read this sentence, he couldn''t help applauding the case. He guessed well that this "Shi Shuo" is indeed a famous article comparable to "Ma Shuo".


    Other doctoral teaching assistants nodded one after another. They were fascinated by the unique and subtle points. Only the doctors of the four disciplines looked gloomy. He set the theme of the year-old examination as the purpose of studying and asking teachers, which was to show that his identity was a teacher, while the mojiazi was a student of the Imperial College, intending to show the grace and dignity of the teacher.


    And the MOH family even began to write sentences without length or lack. Doesn''t that mean that they need to ask the MOH family for knowledge instead?


    "Doctors, musicians and people of all trades are not ashamed of their teachers, and the family of literati and bureaucrats... If you are humble, you will be ashamed, and if you are prosperous, you will be flattered..."


    The more he read, the more frightened he became. According to his knowledge, he could naturally tell how wonderful this article was and was destined to spread to future generations. However, what made him angry was that he played an ignominious role in it. Didn''t the Mexican doctor hundred workers imply that the Mexican family was not ashamed to ask questions, but was quick to study; and he became a family of scholar bureaucrats ashamed of asking questions.


    Other doctors can''t help but get Hao Ran''s help. They don''t have some bad habits of scholar bureaucrats in Shi Shuo. Since they became officials, they have never consulted others for knowledge.


    "Yes, so the disciples don''t have to be inferior to the teachers, and the teachers don''t have to be virtuous than the disciples. They have heard that there are orders of Taoism and specializations in martial arts. That''s all." the doctors of the four schools almost didn''t recite it at one go.


    When Han Yu wrote this sentence in his previous life, it can be said that most of the meaning of encouraging future generations, but when it comes to Merton, I''m afraid he is extremely proud.


    Because it is necessary to adopt essays, all the poems made by Mohist scholars are famous. In terms of knowledge, Merton is a master of hundreds of schools. I''m afraid he may not be inferior to the doctor of four schools, and the doctor of four schools may not be superior to Merton.


    I''m afraid the difference between them is that they have heard that there are four doctorates in succession. They are older and have studied for only a few more years.


    "Mo family, bullying people too much!" the doctors of the four disciplines were ashamed and angry. They didn''t come up at once and fainted to the ground.

 Chapter 378

    The Imperial College is the highest institution in the Tang Dynasty. The year-end examination has always been a matter of concern in Chang''an city. In particular, Mo Jiazi, a hot figure in Chang''an City, participated in the year-end examination this year.


    Merton''s talent has been recognized by Chang''an city. Not all the poems passed down from the Mohist school are peerless masterpieces.


    People clearly remember that at the beginning, Mozi forced himself into the Imperial College with three poems of the frontier fortress. This time, Mozi was going to graduate from the Imperial College. If there were no accidents, Mozi would surely have good poems and quatrains, which would bring a complete end to his career in the Imperial College.


    Therefore, the year-old examination of the Imperial College can be said to attract the attention of the public, and the information is everywhere. Just after the afternoon, "seriously?" Li Shimin said angrily.


    You should know that in this era, the thought of heaven and earth king and his parents and teachers is deeply rooted. The idea of being a teacher one day and a father all his life is popular.


    If Merton really deceives his superiors, teachers and ancestors, and offends the doctors of four disciplines, I''m afraid even Li Shimin can''t keep Merton.


    Pound nodded affirmatively and bowed to present an article.


    Li Shimin took it and immediately saw two words.


    "Teacher''s theory"

 Chapter 379

    "Ancient scholars must have teachers. Teachers preach and teach to dispel doubts..."


    Li Shimin frowned slightly. In his opinion, there was no problem with the this article? How could I offend a doctor of four.


    Moreover, it reads catchy and penetrating. Obviously, this is a good article. Even Chu suiliang, who is on the side, reads it with interest, just like a person in a long drought who suddenly meets manna.


    "Good article!" Chu suiliang praised.


    They ignored one eye and couldn''t wait to continue to walk down.


    "Doctor Mo, a musician and a hundred workers, are not ashamed of their teachers, but scholars and bureaucrats..." when they read here, they suddenly felt a little surprised.


    In their opinion, this witch doctor is obviously Merton''s self metaphor. The scholar doctor obviously refers to the doctor of four disciplines. No wonder the doctor of four disciplines is so angry.


    The two continued to read,


    Finally, when I read that a disciple does not have to be inferior to a teacher, and a teacher does not have to be virtuous to a disciple, I immediately knew the origin of the four doctorates'' being stunned by Qi.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said nothing.


    Chu suiliang took a breath and couldn''t calm down for a long time. Merton''s Ci article is not wonderful, even it can be said that it is a good article at any time,


    Chu suiliang sighed in his heart that Dr. Simen likes to rely on the old and sell the old. Unfortunately, this time he kicked the iron plate because he met the most talented student he taught in his life.


    In history, because of four doctorates, he picked the wrong opponent and the wrong way.


    Although the doctors of the four disciplines were stunned by this incident, from this article, mojiazi did not have any fault at all,


    Li Shimin and Chu suiliang looked at each other and sighed one after another. It was a headless injustice in this matter. Meeting students like Mo Jiazi was not only a blessing for the Imperial College, but also an misfortune for the Imperial College.


    Outside the palace, the wind and cloud surged.


    As soon as the famous article "Shi Shuo" was spread abroad, it immediately spread all over Chang''an City in the fastest way.


    All the people who read it were very happy. So far, Merton is good at poetry. There is only one article, that is, Ma Shuo.


    No one thought that the teacher who came down in one continuous line with Ma Shuo was even more amazing. No matter which one of these two articles was put into the hands of one person, it would make people successful, and no one thought that it came from a 15-year-old boy.


    "Disciples don''t have to be inferior to teachers, and teachers don''t have to be superior to disciples. In my opinion, doctors of the four schools are really inferior to Merton in terms of articles and poems." many people in Chang''an City shook their heads and said after reading the teacher.


    "In my opinion, these four doctorates are basically humiliating themselves. Mozi is based on poetry in the Imperial College, and writing articles is Mozi''s strong point."


    "And the four doctorates, who even attack their strengths with their own shortcomings, have today''s shame, which can be regarded as their own responsibility."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, the contradiction between Merton and the four doctorates, as well as the teacher''s statement, immediately pushed the year-end year-old examination of the National Academy of Sciences to the forefront,


    However, this did not end. Many people suddenly found that Merton''s two articles were ancient, and each was wonderful.


    In the era of the popularity of parallel prose in the Tang Dynasty, many people of insight have realized that although parallel prose has neat antithesis, gorgeous words and quotations from classics, its words are empty and meaningless, but it is not as practical as the ancients.


    For a long time, in the literary circle of Chang''an City, the struggle between parallel style prose and ancient prose has long begun. However, parallel style prose has the absolute advantage and ancient prose is weak.


    However, Merton''s two ancient essays are wonderful, each of which is a boutique of ancient essays, which can be regarded as detonating the debate between the two in advance.


    In the Imperial College,


    Kong Yingda looked around and said slowly, "today, the doctors of the four schools are ill. We are jointly marking the papers for the four schools."


    When they looked at each other, they all knew that the doctor of the four disciplines was not ill, but had no face to see them again. Moreover, I was afraid that the next object of marking today was the "teacher''s speech" in front of them.


    Liu Yinian couldn''t wait to stand up and said, "you and I see, although Merton''s article is good, it doesn''t use parallel prose. There are no allusions between words, and it''s the top three at most."


    Shen Hongcai sneered, looked at Liu Yinian and said sarcastically, "you write such a top three article!"


    Liu Yinian''s face suddenly stiffened. In terms of literary talent, Merton''s article, let alone the top three, is the top one, which is also the ranking. "Let''s not say that the style of Mohist is wrong, let''s take it as an example that he stunned the doctors of four disciplines. If we give him high marks, where is the face of Dr. Guozijian?" Liu Yinian said sternly.


    Shen Hongcai sneered: "Merton and Dr. Simen don''t have any physical and verbal conflict at all, and Merton''s article is here. You can tell me which word in it is satirizing Dr. Simen, attacking and abusing, or not respecting teachers, which is contrary to students'' morality.


    The doctor of mathematics choked. Judging from the article alone, Merton''s article is indeed a pearl of words, persuading people to seek knowledge and thought-provoking. It is the supreme truth for anyone to read.


    And the four doctorates are dizzy with Qi. It''s just taking their seats according to the number. How can such a thing be put on the table!


    Seeing the two people arguing more and more fiercely, Kong Yingda waved his hand and said, "don''t argue."


    Then they looked at each other and stopped arguing.


    "Dr. Guozixue, what do you think?" Kong Yingda focused on the doctor of Guozixue.


    Dr. Guozixue frowned and said, "from my point of view, although Mohist scholars have literary talent, they are proud of their talents and don''t have much awe for our teachers. This trend can''t last long and should be severely punished. If you give them one armour, I''m afraid it will encourage this trend."


    Ma Jiayun, doctor of the Imperial College, immediately retorted: "the most important thing for us to conduct the year-end examination is to be fair. Ordinary students who violate virtue will naturally be punished according to the rules of the Imperial College, and the only standard that can judge the score above the examination room is the student''s article.


    "I''m here to ask you. Aside from everything, if this" teacher''s talk "was not written by Mohist, not by Mohist, but by a person, an ordinary student of the Imperial College, how would we judge it?"


    Everyone was suddenly silent. Indeed, if another person could write such a wonderful article, they would be ecstatic and share glory.


    "Where''s the doctor of law?" Kong Yingda turned to the new doctor of law.


    Hearing the speech, the doctor of law frowned slightly and said, "from below, although Mozi was proud of his talents, he did not violate any laws of the Tang Dynasty and the regulations of the Imperial College."


    Kong Yingda nodded slightly and turned his mind secretly. Just now, in the dispute between pen and brush, he made a decision to prefer brush.


    Although it seems that the reason is sufficient, it is inevitable that the population is real. At the moment, if he favors the Imperial College again, I''m afraid he can''t convince the public.


    However, at the moment, the theories of hundreds of schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty are in the ascendant. If the Imperial College specifically targets the Mohist school, I''m afraid it will fall on people''s lips.


    And it''s just a score. It doesn''t matter to Merton. If the Imperial College goes too far, I''m afraid with the spread of this teacher''s story, the Imperial College will always be nailed to the pillar of shame,


    After thinking for a long time, Kong Yingda suddenly looked up and said, "since it''s the year-old exam, the victory or defeat will be determined by the article. I suggest that this" teacher''s theory "be a first class."

 Chapter 380

    Kong Yingda knew that the later the news was released, the more unfavorable it would be to the Imperial College. So that night, the news came out of Chang''an city that Mohist calligraphy, four schools and two subjects were all A-Class.


    As for the first class of calligraphy, Liu Yinian is angry, but he has no way. Kong Yingda has set the tone for the year-old examination, only on the quality of the examination paper.


    In terms of calligraphy alone, Merton''s small regular script written with a pen can not be said to be unique. Even he can''t deny that he is proud to hold his nose and draw a armour for Merton.


    "MOH family is worthy of MOH family! There are two consecutive subjects and one class. At present, it is the first in the Imperial College." many people said happily.


    "What''s this? The next one is math. Mohist is famous for math. I can''t guarantee anything else, but if math is a subject, Mohist must be one of the best." a common people in Chang''an City who knows well about Mohist''s deeds said proudly.


    "Then, isn''t it that the MOH family has already determined three subjects and one class?" someone exclaimed.


    Many people nodded with certainty. With the help of mathematics, almost no one in the whole Tang Dynasty could surpass the Mohist school. Even Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics of the Imperial College, was included. The ancestors of the ancestral family had to bow down to the Mohist school.


    Sure enough, as expected.


    The next day, just two-quarters of an hour after the beginning of the year-old math exam, the National Academy of Sciences came the news that the papers had been handed in ahead of schedule.


    "That''s true!" everyone looked so true.


    Shen Hongcai looked at the test paper in his hand and all the correct answers on the test paper. He couldn''t help sighing. He was also very helpless when he met a student who could shout out that his disciples didn''t have to be inferior to his teacher. It seems that Mohist school is really better than him in mathematics.


    There is no doubt that Merton''s year-old math test has been a certain one.


    In C house, many students saw Merton''s empty position and looked at the confused examination papers in their hands. They couldn''t help but feel sad.


    "A perverted pool manager who discharges water while draining."


    "Chicken and rabbit in the same cage!"


    "Deliberately slow down and wait for my brother to catch up with my bad brother."


    "A usurer who does not calculate interest rates."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The examinees looked at a abnormal topic written by themselves and immediately became angry. The original good impression of Morton''s donation of heating was suddenly gone.


    However, not long after Merton got up, Qin Huaiyu got up at the same time and walked out of the classroom with a proud face.


    All the students in bingshe were stunned. When did the three unknowingly reach the level of Xueba.


    After the math exam, everyone reluctantly handed over the test paper.


    The result came out quickly. Sure enough, Merton went to the next city and won a first prize in the year-old math test.


    However, no one has any opinion about this one, and no one talks about Shen Hongcai''s release of water,


    Because Merton''s level of mathematics is obvious and indisputable. Even the latest popular Tianzhu figures of the Imperial College and various problem-solving methods come from the Mohist family. It''s impossible to beat Merton with these problems.


    "The Mohist school has three subjects and one class!"


    After the news spread, Chang''an City cheered.


    "What''s the next subject?" someone couldn''t wait to ask.


    "Guozi school!" an insider replied.


    "Guozi school? In my opinion, one of the four branches of Mohist school is in sight." a middle-aged scholar said happily.


    "What''s the meaning of that?" the crowd asked.


    The middle-aged scholar smiled and said, "Guozixue mainly teaches the classics of poetry. Moreover, the doctor of Guozixue loves poetry most in his life. You can imagine, who has Mohist lost in poetry?"


    The crowd immediately exclaimed.


    If the Mohist school can achieve four subjects and one class, this is an achievement that the Imperial College has not achieved for many years. I''m afraid it will leave a strong mark in the Imperial College''s annals.


    For a moment, everyone in Chang''an city was expecting Mo Jiazi to make another miracle and win four subjects and one class.


    In the afternoon exam, the Guozi school year-old exam was held as scheduled.


    Dr. Guozixue walked slowly into the C house and saw Merton sitting upright. A look of mystery flashed in his eyes.


    He really loves poetry and knows that Mohist poetry is unique, so today he chose a special theme.


    "At the end of this year''s examination, some students are about to leave the Imperial College, but you should not forget your teachings in the Imperial College. Today, you will write a poem on the topic of teachers'' kindness."


    "Shien!"


    The crowd looked up at Merton.


    The title of Guozixue doctor is very smart. He directly asked Guozijian students to write poems on the title of Shi en, avoiding the old road of re following the four doctorates.


    It can also remind the Mohists not to forget the teachings of the Imperial College. If the Mohists go their own way and openly deny the teachings of the Imperial College, they will be laughed at by thousands of people.


    Everyone immediately thought hard. The subject of Shien is very extensive, but it is difficult to write when drunk.


    "Shien!"


    Merton hesitated. In fact, he had no bad feelings for the Imperial College. There were many contradictions between Confucianism and Mohism in the pre-Qin period. It was not until the decline of Mohism that the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism was covered up.


    In his one-year career in the Imperial College, Merton and the Imperial College are full of contradictions, but it can not be denied that the Imperial College has carefully taught him during this period of time.


    Merton also cherished his student career during this period, which gave him a buffer period in Datang. Really into this era.


    Merton thought a lot, thought of the teachers who taught him in his previous life, thought of Master Li in this life, and the shameless teacher. Shen Hongcai, who took the initiative to change, impressed him deeply.


    Merton took a deep breath. There were few poems to thank Shi en in later generations, but one was very appropriate, that is Zheng Banqiao''s Hsinchu.


    "Hsinchu is higher than the old bamboo branches. It depends on the support of old cadres. Next year, there will be new people, ten Zhanglong and sun around the Phoenix pond."


    Merton finished writing in one breath and nodded with satisfaction. He compared Hsinchu to students and Laogan to teachers, and expressed the teacher''s support and help to students incisively and vividly.


    Once this poem is published, it must be very consistent with the meaning of the title.


    Merton raised his head to hand in the paper, but looked up at the doctor of Imperial College and couldn''t help shaking his head and said, "if there''s no accident, this poem will certainly pass, but it''s almost safe.


    Merton calmed down and carefully recalled the poems about Shien in later generations. Suddenly his eyes brightened. There is another poem in later generations. Although it does not describe Shien, it will be widely used by later generations to express Shien.


    "The vast sorrow of parting slants in the daytime, and the whiplash points to the East, which is the end of the world. Falling red is not a ruthless thing, but turns into spring mud to protect flowers." Merton puts down his pen with satisfaction.


    In her previous life, Gong Zizhen compared herself to falling red to convey her heart of serving the country. Now Merton transferred flowers and trees and directly compared her teacher to falling red, that is, falling into the soil and still nurturing flowers, and expressed her teacher''s kindness incisively and vividly.


    When Merton finished writing two poems, he suddenly thought that he had just entered the Imperial College, but he entered the Imperial College with two and a half poems. Now he has two poems. Why don''t he start and finish.


    In fact, there is a poem that is honored as the best poem of Shien by later generations. However, its motivation is indeed that the poet writes it to his admirers. If Merton writes it directly, it will inevitably destroy the artistic conception.


    If you write it alone and connect it with the first two songs, it will be very consistent.


    "It''s hard not to meet each other. The east wind is weak and a hundred flowers are broken. The spring silkworm ends when it dies. The wax torch turns into ash and the tears begin to dry."


    Since then, the world has lost a hazy love poem and a poem praising the teacher''s kindness. In Merton''s view, even if there is only half que, this seven character rhythm poem is better than the whole one.

 Chapter 381

    The bell rings! The year-old examination of Guozi school ended.


    Many students suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and handed in their examination papers. Shien''s examination questions seemed ordinary, but it was very difficult to write classics.


    Of course, many students are full of self-confidence and feel good about themselves. They can''t help showing a proud look. As soon as Merton walked out of bingshe, he saw a group of people around wesan boasting to each other.


    "From my younger brother''s point of view, in this poem, brother Wei''s teacher''s kindness is like a mountain and his love is like a sea. He must be in sight!" a student looked at the poem rewritten by Wei Sian and said with exclamation on his face.


    With a proud look on his face, Wei Si''an said: "the teacher''s kindness is unforgettable! The students also feel it. As for the ranking, I don''t value it. I can only do my best to write my gratitude to the teacher and live up to the teacher''s teaching for many years."


    "Brother Wei is really talented and virtuous. He should be a model for our students." they praised him one after another.


    "Brother Mo! Brother Mo has always been a good poet. I wonder if you can let me have a look at the masterpiece." wesan was being praised by the public. Suddenly, seeing Merton passing by, he couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and said frivolously.


    In his opinion, Merton is a son of Mohism, and the doctor of Guozi studies is a Confucian teacher. What poems can Merton write to thank his teachers?


    If Merton writes well, I''m afraid he is also suspected of flattery.


    Before Merton spoke, Qin Huaiyu suddenly snorted coldly: "I don''t know who gave you the courage to compare poems with Merton."


    He now has absolute confidence in Merton. Merton has never lost in poetry. In his opinion, even this poem is difficult to write, which is a piece of cake for Merton.


    "Brother Wei is a talented scholar of the Imperial College, not worse than the Mohist school?" a attendant beside Wei Si''an said proudly.


    "No, if I wait for a bet, I''ll see who ranks high in your poems and Merton''s poems. I''ll bet a thousand Liang on Merton''s victory." Chumo suddenly said excitedly.


    When Merton first entered the Imperial College, he made a lot of money by taking advantage of Merton''s hard work. Only then did he have 30% of the members of the Mohist food city. From then on, he was rich and powerful.


    This year''s year-end examination of the National Academy of Sciences, they all wanted to take the examination in person. In addition, they were not short of money. Naturally, they didn''t want to set up a gambling game at the risk of being punished.


    However, seeing that wesan himself took the initiative to provoke him, Chumo couldn''t help but want to fulfill his long cherished wish again.


    "I also pressed two thousand Liang!" Wei Chi Baolin didn''t say much, so he directly pressed out the year-end dividend Merton gave him to the food city.


    "I also press two thousand Liang!" Qin Huaiyu said, gritting his teeth.


    "Five thousand Liang!" the onlookers took a breath.


    Everyone knew that the three men had made a lot of money with Merton, but they didn''t expect to be so proud.


    When Wei Si settled down, he shrank back and shot 5000 Liang at once, even if he was the legitimate son of the Wei family in the south of the city.


    "If you don''t have money, you can write a note. If you can''t pay, the Wei family in the south of the city will naturally pay." Cheng Chumo said with a smile.


    "You bet openly in the Imperial College, and the three of you are still stubborn." Wei Si''an snorted coldly and was not fooled at all.


    Although he has confidence in his poems, he has no confidence in the face of Mo Jiazi, who is famous in Chang''an city.


    If he loses, he won''t be able to get money at last and make trouble in the family.


    Looking at Wei Si''an and the others leaving in dismay, Qin Huaiyu said ruthlessly, "it''s hard to dare to compare poems to Merton. You don''t know how to live or die, don''t you! Brother Mo!"


    "What do you say?"


    Merton looked at himself angrily. Without saying a word, he was solved neatly by the three people.


    "What I wrote this time is Shien''s kindness. It''s not suitable for gambling. Don''t mention such gambling again." Merton reminded.


    The three suddenly called for luck in their hearts.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Dr. Guozixue calmly returned to the prison all the way. As soon as he sat down in his position, he couldn''t wait to turn over the examination paper.


    "The Mohist school was the first batch to hand in the examination papers, so it was the penultimate one." Dr. Guozixue immediately turned to the penultimate one.


    Since the beginning of the examination, Dr. Guozi has been paying close attention to Merton. He can see clearly from Merton''s writing to Merton''s several pauses, and then writing again.


    "If there is no accident, it should be three poems!" Dr. Guozixue said in his heart.


    Take out a look, it is indeed the unique pen font of Mohist Zi, and it is a full three copies.


    Sure enough, there are three poems! Guozi Xue was secretly excited and couldn''t wait to see it.


    "Hsinchu is higher than the old bamboo branches, and it depends on the support of the old cadres..." Dr. Guozixue nodded with satisfaction after reading the first poem. The old cadres in Hsinchu are indeed appropriate to describe teachers and students, and can show that only the support of the old cadres can make Hsinchu higher.


    "There is an artistic conception that the green is better than the blue." there was a sudden exclamation behind Dr. Guozixue.


    Dr. Guozixue, who was immersed in the poem, was startled and suddenly turned around. He saw people standing behind him.


    "Dr. Guozi, you are a little unkind. Since the poems of Mohist school have been written, you have to enjoy them alone." Dr. Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, smiled.


    Dr. Guozixue shook his head and laughed. The whole Guozijian was more than his love of poetry. Merton''s poetry was recognized by the world. How can people stand it.


    Dr. Guozixue had no choice but to expand Merton''s poetry for everyone to taste.


    "Plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. Bamboo is one of the four gentlemen. It is indeed quite appropriate to use Hsinchu veteran to compare teachers and students." Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, praised that bamboo represents straightness, purity and Clank iron bone. The ancients liked to use bamboo to compare themselves in poetry.


    Merton''s poem immediately satisfied everyone.


    "It''s really a rare and excellent work." Shen Hongcai, a doctor of mathematics, nodded.


    Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, had a bad face. He couldn''t see Merton''s power. He couldn''t help humming coldly: "in my opinion, although this poem of Mohist Zi is good, it''s not the level of Mohist Zi. If he doesn''t write about Shien, he''s clumsy!"


    As soon as Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, said this, the whole audience was quiet immediately.


    Although Liu Yinian is suspected of picking a bone in an egg, he reveals the fact that although this poem is a good work, it is still a low level compared with Merton''s three frontier fortress poems.


    Seeing the silence of the crowd, Liu Yinian couldn''t help but show a proud smile and continued to stir up discord: "how much gratitude can a person who can shout that a disciple doesn''t have to be inferior to a teacher and a teacher doesn''t have to be virtuous to his disciples?"


    The crowd suddenly looked embarrassed.


    "Don''t be unprepared. Isn''t there another one?" Shen Hongcai gave Liu Yinian a cold look and reminded him.


    Dr. Guozixue remembered this and immediately turned to the second article.

 Chapter 382

    "The vast sorrow of separation is slanting in the daytime!" Liu Yinian snorted coldly. "Mohist still has sorrow of separation. In my opinion, he is eager to leave the Imperial College as soon as possible. I don''t know how happy he is?"


    Everyone frowned and continued to look.


    "Yinbian points to the East, that is the end of the world! This sentence is quite atmospheric..." Shen Hongcai defended Merton.


    People nodded slightly in their hearts. These two poems are really open-minded and cheerful.


    "Falling red is not a ruthless thing. It turns into spring mud to protect flowers!"


    When everyone read this sentence, it was like being struck by lightning and standing on the ground.


    "This is an eternal saying!" Dr. Guozixue was so excited that he couldn''t help himself.


    However, the most gratifying thing for Dr. Guozixue is not how wonderful this sentence is, and this sentence regards Luohong as a master. It can be said that most of the masters present are old and in their old age, just like in the late stage of flower, they are destined to fall off the branches.


    Who would have thought that this poem would turn the seemingly useless fallen flowers into flower fertilizer to make the newly opened flowers more colorful when the next year comes, which is a metaphor for the teachings of their old masters to their students.


    "Shien is like a mountain!" they thought of the teachers they had taught themselves. I''m afraid they had already reached a deep valley. However, the teachers'' churches have always affected their lives.


    "Since ancient times, there have been countless poems about Shi en, and this sentence is the best." Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, read it three times. The crowd could not help nodding.


    "Mohist Tzu thanked Shien for writing this poem. It can be seen that attention is a sincere person, but it is not like the clumsy and clumsy character of a population." Shen Hongcai glanced at Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, and said sarcastically.


    Liu Yinian''s face turned red with shame. Once this poem was published, all his previous doubts and complaints about Merton could not stand up. It was a slap in the face on the spot.


    "Hum!" Liu Yinian felt ashamed to stay any longer and left angrily.


    At the moment, no one cares about Liu Yinian''s departure. Instead, they can''t wait to see it.


    Facts have proved that mojiazi is still the talented mojiazi. The first two poems have made everyone so happy. How wonderful will the third poem of mojiazi be.


    The third poem was slowly opened, and the first line of poetry came into the eyes of everyone.


    "It''s difficult to meet each other, and it''s also difficult to leave! The east wind is weak and a hundred flowers are broken."


    The crowd nodded slightly and wrote at the beginning that it was difficult to say goodbye. It must be the same to write about the sorrow of separation, which is also a very appropriate topic.


    "When the spring silkworm dies, the wax torch turns into ash and the tears begin to dry."


    Guozixue doctor''s mind was thundering, and he couldn''t help but rise suddenly.


    "This poem..." Guozixue trembled and pointed to the poem, with an excited look in his eyes.


    "This poem has done all the kindness of teachers in the world!" Ma Jiayun, doctor of Imperial College, said excitedly.


    These two verses elevate Shien infinitely. Compared with veteran cadres in Hsinchu, heluohong flower protector is better, but neither spring silkworm nor wax torch is the most appropriate.


    The silk that spring silkworms spit out is not the knowledge they teach. They teach all their life and tirelessly teach their knowledge to every student until they are old and come to the end of their life.


    At the same time, they are like wax torches, burning their lives to illuminate the future for students. Burning candles and tears is not that teachers use their lives to guide students until they contribute their lives.


    "It''s really the way to do all the teachers'' kindness in the world." Dr. Guozixue nodded and agreed. At the same time, he was secretly happy. If he didn''t choose the title of teachers'' kindness, how could such a masterpiece appear in front of them.


    "Is this poem a five character quatrain?" suddenly the doctor of law asked suspiciously.


    "How is it possible? Judging from the rhythm of the poem, it is definitely a seven character poem." the Guozijian student shook his head and denied.


    "Then there are only four sentences." the doctor of law didn''t understand. Seven character regular poems are four lines and eight sentences, and there is no following after the fourth sentence in this poem.


    "Why not?" Dr. Guozixue panicked and turned over the front and back of the rice paper in his hand. It was still blank.


    "It shouldn''t be mixed with other examination papers!" the doctor of Taixue didn''t understand.


    Doctor Taixue quickly turned over all the examination papers, but he still couldn''t find them.


    "Impossible!" the people immediately looked at each other.


    Suddenly, Shen Hongcai said carefully, "this can''t be intentional by Mohist Zi!"


    "Intentional?" the crowd suddenly turned around and stared at Shen Hongcai.


    Shen Hongcai swallowed his saliva and said helplessly, "you can imagine that the three frontier fortress poems made by Mozi when he entered the imperial college years ago were actually two and a half. This time, it shouldn''t be the same."


    When they thought about it carefully, their hearts suddenly opened up. According to this, this time I''m afraid it''s also two and a half, but last time it was a half que five character quatrain, and this time it was a half que seven character rhyme.


    "MOH family! It''s nonsense!" said the doctor of Imperial College gnashing his teeth. Merton even wrote half a Que in such a classic poem. It''s a monster.


    The crowd also shook their heads and smiled bitterly. Although Mohist Zi was brilliant, it was true that Mohist Zi could do such a thing. You know, Merton had written many crooked poems and advertised with poems. Only what people could not think of, not what Merton could not do.


    If Merton were here, he would cry out for injustice. If he wrote all this poem, I''m afraid a famous poem to thank the teacher''s kindness would suddenly become an ambiguous love poem. In this way, people might be more unacceptable.


    "Ha ha ha!"


    Suddenly, Dr. Guozixue burst into laughter.


    Everyone looked at him in surprise. Dr. Guozixue loved poetry as much as life. He shouldn''t be mad by Merton!


    The laughter of Dr. Guozixue was so happy that there was no sense of anger at all, which made everyone think and fear.


    Seeing the people''s expressions, Dr. Guozixue didn''t think so. He said in a loud voice, "in my opinion, the half que of Mohist Zi''s poem is just right, just right."


    "What''s the meaning of this?" Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, didn''t understand.


    "Shien is like a mountain and love is like a sea. How can a few poems be told? In my opinion, Mozi must have nothing to say. This is only half a que." the doctor of Guozixue said positively.


    Everyone was relieved. It is reasonable to say that Merton''s continuous writing of two and a half excellent works in a short time is enough to surprise people. They want to ask too much, which is really greedy.


    "Dr. Guozi said very well." they nodded.


    "There are two and a half pieces of this teacher''s grace... No! There are three pieces of teacher''s grace. The world''s teacher''s way must be prosperous. My way is not lonely!" Ma Jiayun said with emotion.


    It can be imagined that once Merton''s poems today flow out, it must be a huge leap for the image of teachers in the world. They have always advocated the dignity and respect of teachers, and Merton directly starts from the painstaking dedication image of teachers, which makes everyone lose one-third.


    Dr. Guozi picked up the Zhu pen, waved his pen and wrote directly on Merton''s examination paper: "a!"


    So far, Merton has four families and one class.


    Soon, along with the three articles of Shien, the news of Merton''s four subjects and one a spread all over Chang''an city.

 Chapter 383

    "Shien three!"


    In Chang''an City, all the people who read the three chapters of Shien were surging with emotion.


    As Merton said in his "teacher''s theory", ancient scholars must have teachers. Anyone who reads and reads has no teachers. It can even be said that before people grow up, we spend more time with teachers than our parents.


    Many people are far away from their hometown to study and worship teachers, and many officials enter officialdom almost entirely on the recommendation of their teachers.


    "Shien is like a mountain and love is like a sea." many people burst into tears as they read.


    In this era of teacher''s dignity, the sensation caused by Merton''s three articles of teacher''s kindness can be said to have doubled the effect. Every time they reach each place, they will cause bursts of sensation.


    "After the three chapters of Shien, there will be no poetry to thank Shien." someone categorically said that Merton''s three chapters of Shien are the composition of the most famous works that can reflect Shien in China for thousands of years. It is even more difficult for future generations to surpass.


    "Who said that mojiazi didn''t know how to be grateful!" many people asked fiercely.


    After the title of the year-old examination of Guozi school came out, many people in Chang''an City, like Wei Si''an, believed that Merton was a descendant of the Mohist school, and the Guozi school taught Confucian classics. There were sects between the two. Moreover, the Mohist school was able to call out that the disciples did not have to be inferior to the teachers. It was estimated that it was difficult to have any kindness to the Guozi supervisor''s teacher.


    However, when Shien''s three articles came out, everyone was silent.


    "The Mohist family! The heart of a pure child!" the people sighed one after another. Is it the kind of person who doesn''t respect teachers and respect the way.


    In Chang''an City, the first to react was the teachers. Both the schools and private tutors taught the three chapters of Shien to the school disciples at the first time.


    For a while, the status of teachers in Chang''an City soared. As long as they wear teachers'' clothes and walk on the street, they will welcome people''s respected eyes and even all kinds of preferential treatment.


    Many people, after reading the three articles of Shien, went to Shien''s house to thank him with gifts.


    Some people put the "teacher''s theory" written by Merton and the three articles of teacher''s kindness together and exclaimed: "I''m afraid it''s the Mohist family who knows the way between teachers and students best in the world."


    One "teacher''s theory" tells us the way to seek a teacher, and three "teacher''s grace" tells us the feeling of teacher''s grace.


    "The Mohists broke into the Imperial College with three poems about the frontier fortress, and ended their career with three poems about Shi en before they left. We have nothing to say about these talents."


    "On poetry, we only admire mojiazi."


    "Four families and one class, the name belongs to reality."


    This time everyone was convinced.


    In the Imperial College, Wei Si''an looked at the three articles of Shien in his hand with a dead face and was extremely frustrated.


    Under such a masterpiece, I wanted to provoke Merton. I was like a clown. The attendants on one side were silent as cold cicadas, for fear that they might offend wesan at this time.


    "MOH family!" Wei Si''an was ashamed and angry.


    He couldn''t understand why it was a fluke for the world to write one of these peerless masterpieces, but Merton wrote two and a half at once in a short time, and even the last half was not inferior to the first two.


    Wei Si''an was looking at his poems. He was ashamed. He wanted to find a seam on the ground and turn in. It was insulting to provoke the Mo family.


    "So, the MOH family is already four families and one class!"


    Someone woke up from the third chapter of Shien and said in surprise.


    "Four subjects and one class!" the people immediately marveled! "


    In the history of the Imperial College, only a few people were able to achieve this. And now there is another Mo family.


    What''s more, mojiazi is still one of the top four subjects, followed by two subjects of law and Imperial College. Who can guarantee that mojiazi will still get five and six. "


    They all think that Merton has a great chance of reaching the top five. As long as there is one class and one class in the remaining two subjects, there are only two people in the history of the Imperial College.


    Six, six, one! This is in the Imperial College, but no student can achieve it, and Mohist is very likely to achieve it, and he also has this strength.


    It''s not just Wei Si''an, but all the Guozijian students are under great pressure.


    Although Merton''s talent can be recognized by everyone, the competitive heart of all the students is not weak at all. If the skills of the Merton family are allowed to overwhelm the Imperial College, all the students will have no light on their faces.


    For a moment, there was an undercurrent in the Imperial College. A group of students secretly vowed to snipe Merton at the last two gates.


    In Chang''an City, people have not recovered from the fanaticism of the three chapters of Shien. They also realize that Merton is afraid that it is really possible to create a historical record in the Imperial College.


    All of them were excited. In this era of almost no entertainment, mojiazi simply brought a wonderful epic drama, tortuous struggle plot, intoxicating beautiful poems and unprecedented historical records.


    "As long as there are Mohists, there will be wonderful stories." everyone sighed one after another.


    From the moment that mojiazi appeared in Chang''an City, the spiritual and cultural life of the urban people in Chang''an immediately enriched several times. From the top officials and nobles to the common people, it was interesting to mention the past of mojiazi one by one.


    For a moment, the people of Chang''an City were more and more looking forward to the year-old examination on the last day of the Imperial College. They were all looking forward to the Mexican family to create another miracle.


    Donggong Chongwen hall.


    Kong Yingda looked at the princes who were working hard at their desks with satisfaction. It was close to the end of the year. The Imperial College held a year-old examination, and the Chongwen Museum naturally needed to assess the schoolwork of the princes, which was also the reason why Kong Yingda was not in the Imperial College today.


    "Master, this is my poem. Please check it." unexpectedly, the first person to hand in the paper was Li Zhi, the youngest in the school.


    Kong Yingda was surprised to take it over and looked at it roughly. Although Li Zhi''s poems were young, their words were quite neat. It was very rare for him at his age.


    "Good!" Kong Yingda praised.


    Li Zhi immediately grinned, revealing the open teeth that had just lost their baby teeth, and his face was full of pride. Since reading Merton''s phonological enlightenment, writing poetry is no longer a problem for Li Zhi.


    Soon several young princes handed in poems as soon as possible. Although the craftsman is full of spirit, they are already valuable.


    Finally, only Li Tai, Li Ke and Li Chengqian were left. Naturally, the three had been separated from the influence of phonological enlightenment, and their poems naturally had a little more aura.


    The bell rang and the three handed in their papers at the same time.


    "The prince and his highness have made great progress in their studies, which is really gratifying."


    Kong Yingda looked it up carefully, nodded with satisfaction, waved his pen and wrote a grade on the three people''s examination paper.


    "This is the teacher''s teaching!" Li Shimin''s voice came in from the outside.


    Kong Yingda hurriedly got up and said, "the princes are talented and intelligent. Micro ministers dare not take credit."


    Li Shimin quickly helped Kong Yingda up and said, "are you talented and intelligent? Kong''s wine offering is too fond of them. All these poems and vulgar words can only entertain themselves."


    Li Tai was not convinced when he heard the speech. He was the best of the three. Even he could be sure that his poem must be the first of the three.


    Not only Li Tai, but even Li Ke and Li Chengqian admit that they are not satisfied.


    Li Shimin sighed and said, "my father knows you are not convinced. When you see these three poems, you will know where your gap is?"


    When Merton''s "three chapters of Shien" was placed in front of the three, Li Tai and the three immediately looked ashamed. Looking at their poems, the little pride in their hearts suddenly disappeared.


    "I know my mistakes. I will guard against arrogance and impatience in the future, study hard and never forget my teacher''s kindness." Li Chengqian took the lead in saying.


    It was not just Li Tai who was subdued by Merton''s three articles of Shien. Even Kong Yingda was excited and excited to see the three articles of Shien.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn''t help showing a proud smile. It was a wise decision to put the Mexican family into the Imperial College. Merton, a small catfish, made a lot of noise when he entered the Imperial College, which surprised him every time.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said to Kong Yingda: "Kong offered a toast. I wonder if the three of Chengqian can go to the Imperial College to take the last two year old exams tomorrow, and let them compete with the elite of the Tang Dynasty, so as not to be complacent."


    Kong Yingda woke up like a dream and hurriedly said, "waiting for the three princes."

 Chapter 384

    The last day of the imperial college entrance examination.


    It can be said to be a sensation in the city. Almost everyone is concerned about which record Merton can set.


    Inside and outside the Imperial College, there was an endless stream of idle people who inquired about the news. They wanted to get "the shepherd''s side? Governing a village is the shepherd''s side!" Merton thought humbly.

 Chapter 385

    "In the prosperous times, benevolent government is implemented, the holy way is gentle and far-reaching, and morality is also; in troubled times, the king''s way is used to kill and frighten, and the law is also used."


    In ancient times, the rule of law always followed different times and used different means, especially in the Tang Dynasty, where Confucianism was outside and law was inside, the law was often wrapped with a layer of etiquette and law.


    The imperial college students were very excited when they heard the topic. This year''s law examination is the best opportunity to snipe at the Mohist school. After all, law is not to test literary talent, but the real policy of governing the country. The imperial college cultivates talents who govern the country. They have studied here for many years and naturally have many advantages.


    Moreover, all the Guozijian students understand the concept of the new doctor of law and choose to combine etiquette and law. As long as they conform to the concept of the doctor of law, they will have a great chance to get high scores.


    The three of Li Chengqian meditated. Royal education is also the top priority for the way of governing the country. What they see from the royal position is naturally unique, and the articles they write are naturally easy to shine.


    Li Tai confidently glanced at Merton, who was thinking hard, and suddenly showed a contemptuous smile.


    Even if the Mohist family manages the Mohist village well, it is just a talent of a village. If the vision pattern is there, how can the articles written be seen.


    The doctor of law showed a proud smile and governed the place with the law, which was originally the scope of the Imperial College''s law examination. His move could not only increase the difficulty of the Mo family, but also please the three princes. At the same time, he could not find any problems.


    For a while, everyone was working together to beat the Mo family, because I''m afraid law will be the last weakness of the Mo family. This is the best opportunity to snipe the Mo family.


    However, what they don''t know is that although Merton attaches great importance to the legal examination, it is not that he must get a first-class position in the Imperial College, but that he writes legal texts that are in line with the real Legalists and impress the former doctor of law Han Zheng to join the Mojia village.


    In this regard, Merton has long thought hard, not only to ensure the independence of Mohist development, but also to give Legalists independent ruling power. Only a political concept of later generations, the separation of three powers is the most suitable.


    Merton naturally did not dare to write directly about the separation of powers, otherwise it would be like looking for death. What he wants to write today will be an independent judicial power with the separation of powers.


    Merton carefully recalled the knowledge of law in later generations, and with a horizontal in his heart, he wrote: "judicial independence!"


    "The law, the social contract, is actually the common agreement of people all over the world." the law has existed since ancient times. While the world makes laws and drives people to abide by the law, no one has ever considered the origin of the law. Li Tai proudly glanced at Merton in his spare light seconds. He was about to show a winning smile when he suddenly saw the small letters of pens on Merton''s examination paper, There were as many as three. I stayed there immediately.


    "I''m afraid it''s three or five thousand words!" Li Tai was stunned. When he looked at Merton''s pen, it was a little more hot.


    "Is that the advantage of a pen?"


    Not only Li Tai, but also all the Imperial College Students smiled bitterly. The time for the year-old examination is limited. It is the limit for ordinary people to write thousands of words, while the Mo family has written 35000 words, several times more than the others.


    "If you write too much, you may not write well!" Li Tai said bitterly. When he thought of his article, he was full of confidence.


    After the new doctor of law closed the papers, Li Chengqian and his three men also got up one after another and left with the doctor of law.


    The students suddenly looked regretful. Although they guessed the identity of the three, Li Chengqian didn''t leave any chance to make friends with them.


    "Morton, you''re still a boy with a big face. You''ve even attracted these three!" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile in the pavilion outside bingshe.


    Merton immediately said bitterly, "I don''t want such face!"


    Merton couldn''t help sighing. When he saw the three of Li Chengqian, he knew that the difficulty would double this time, but he didn''t expect it to be hell.


    "You get face, we lose face, so our brothers won''t suffer." Chumo looks like losing face.


    Qin Huaiyu immediately laughed and offered his seat to the three princes. If other students knew the identity of Li Chengqian, I''m afraid they all scrambled to do it, how could they lose face!


    "But in this way, what about Merton''s five subjects and one a?" Wei Chi Baolin said with some dissatisfaction. After all, three princes from one class come directly to the three princes. With the character of doctor of law, I''m afraid I can''t wait to directly Award three princes from one class to three.


    "Leave it to fate!" Merton shook his head and said. His purpose this time is not to be a top in the law examination, but to be Han Zheng, a former doctor of law.


    "That''s not necessarily true! Those three didn''t come to the Imperial College to get an armour. If they gave them indiscriminately, I''m afraid they would flatter the horse''s legs." Qin Huaiyu shook her head and said.


    "Yes, and Merton may not lose in terms of articles!" Chumo says confidently to Merton.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded solemnly.


    Merton smiled, shook his head carelessly, got up and went to the gate of the National Academy of Sciences, handed some of the manuscript to tie an, who had already been waiting at the gate, and said, "send this legal text to Yong''an square, and be sure to hand it to Dr. Han." tie an nodded cautiously and turned away.


    Merton looked at tiean''s back and smiled confidently. He believed that Dr. Han would be satisfied with his law.

 Chapter 386

    In the Imperial College, the new doctor of law solemnly reviewed the examination papers.


    Not only the new doctor of law, all law scholars are very serious for fear of making mistakes. There are three princes. If there are mistakes, I''m afraid law will be to blame.


    When the new doctor of law saw Li Tai''s test paper, he couldn''t help nodding with satisfaction.


    "Your Highness the king of Wei''s article is indeed a masterpiece."


    Soon, the articles of Li Ke and Li Chengqian also brightened the eyes of the new doctor of law. Royal education is indeed extraordinary. Even if the identities of the three princes are not mentioned, the articles alone are enough to be in the forefront of the Imperial College.


    The law teaching assistant on one side also smiled and said, "in this way, the three princes are destined to be one."


    The new doctor of law smiled knowingly when he heard the speech. He was not in a hurry to judge and picked up the last examination paper.


    Looking at the dense small block letters, the new doctor of law was stunned. I''m afraid it''s rare to write so many words in one examination paper!


    "Judicial independence"


    The new doctor of law only looked at the topic, and suddenly his hair set up and his eyes shrunk slightly.


    Since the fall of the Qin Dynasty, Legalism has become a vassal of Confucianism. However, many Legalists have never thought of changing this result and have been looking for the way to the rise of legalism.


    Today, however, the new doctor of law seems to have found a direction.


    "Law, social contract." the new doctor of law couldn''t help nodding. Since ancient times, killing people pays for life, blood for blood, and tooth for tooth! Even when the law was not formed in the period of the three emperors and five emperors, these laws had been established by convention. The law was agreed and observed by all people in the world.


    The new doctor of law nodded with satisfaction and continued to look.


    When he saw that there were laws to follow, laws must be obeyed, law enforcement must be strict, and violations of the law must be prosecuted, the new doctor of law suddenly brightened his eyes and exclaimed: "Mohist is worthy of concurrently cultivating the theory of 100 schools. With only these 16 words, Mohist has won the essence of legalism."


    Although these 16 words are common in later generations, they must have been tempered to warn the world. They first appeared in this era and caused a shock.


    The new doctor of law continued to look down. When he saw that Merton was going to invite Legalists to teach the Tang law of the Mohist village and judge Mohist things independently, he couldn''t help but rise suddenly.


    "With the rule of law!"


    The new doctor of law couldn''t help blurting out that he was shocked beyond words when he learned about Merton''s real purpose. He always thought that Merton was just studying Mohism, but he didn''t expect that the Mohists were going to let the Legalists govern the Mohist village.


    "What? Ink with the rule of law?" in law, people exclaimed one after another.


    The new doctor of law was surprised. He couldn''t help regretting his eloquence and subconsciously wanted to hide the examination paper.


    On second thought, he suddenly smiled. Mohist Zi dared to write it. In his opinion, Merton''s idea must have been well planned. Coupled with Mohist Zi''s prestige in Mohist village, I''m afraid it''s not far to implement it. What''s the use of hiding yourself at this time?


    "This is the law of the Mohist school. Please circulate it again!" the examination paper in the hands of the new doctor of law Dafang handed it around to the public.


    After the law teaching assistants couldn''t wait to see it, they looked at each other.


    "The judiciary is independent and the Mohist village is governed by legalism. Doesn''t the Mohist have its own idea? Why don''t they use their own idea?" the assistant in Qingyi said incredulously. The idea of Mohist love and not attack the sages is widely spread in Chang''an city. Who would have thought that Mohist would abandon their own idea and use Legalism to govern Mohist village.


    Mojiazi once claimed that Mojia was an open Mojia. No one thought that Mojia Zi should be so open.


    "With the rule of law, is Mohism still Mohism?" someone didn''t understand.


    The new doctor of law shook his head and said, "why not Mohism? Since it is judicial independence, Mohism does not interfere with the ruling of Legalists, and Legalists can not interfere in the internal affairs of Mohism."


    "But what good would that do to the Mohist school?" the assistant in Qingyi didn''t understand.


    The new doctor of law said solemnly: "It''s no good. There are black sheep everywhere. The Mohist village is developing and the migrant population is increasing. There will be constant contradictions in the future. It''s OK for the villagers to have conflicts with the migrant population. If the villagers argue with the migrant population, punishing the people in the village will lose their hearts and punish the migrant population. I''m afraid the outsiders will favor the people in the village and cause accumulated resentment. In this way, I''m afraid I''m afraid it will be detrimental to the development of Mojia village.


    "Therefore, the Mohist school left all the work of offending people to the Legalists." the Qingyi assistant opened his mouth, and then understood Merton''s plan.


    The new doctor of law nodded and said, "yes, in this way, no matter who is punished, he will not complain about Mohism. Mohism will always be the fair Mohist, and his Mohist son will naturally be relaxed."


    The new doctor of law can enter the Imperial College. Naturally, he has some talent. At a glance, he can see the intention of mojiazi. As a superior figure, there are people around him who make mistakes. Even if he hates his feelings, I''m afraid he has to protect him, otherwise he will lose people''s hearts.


    However, Merton used the law to govern ink and gave the Legalists independent adjudication power. It was useless even to plead with the Mohists. In this way, the Mohist village cleared the black sheep, and Merton kept the Mohist people''s heart, killing two birds with one stone.


    "The idea of Mojia Zi is good, but who can be competent for this position?" the assistant teacher in Tsing Yi shook his head. An outsider who wants to rule and deal with the conflict in Mojia village must be a very authoritative person in addition to the full support of Mojia Zi.


    The new doctor of law looked very active and a stubborn figure flashed in his heart. I''m afraid he was the most suitable candidate. The former doctor of law, who defended the last bottom line of Legalism in a stubborn way on his own.


    Suddenly, the heart of the new doctor of law suddenly opened up. I''m afraid this is the purpose of mojiazi. In fact, this examination paper was not written for him, but for the former doctor of law.


    "People all over the world pay attention to whether the Mojia village can reach five subjects and one class, but I don''t know that Mojia Zi doesn''t care at all. His real purpose is probably to invite master han to join the Mojia village." the new doctor of law smiled bitterly in his heart.


    Han Zhengzheng is the mentor of the new doctor of law. Naturally, he knows Han Zheng''s ideas. With the idea of Mohism, he is almost tailor-made for Han Zheng.


    "Today I''ll read the paper on behalf of my teacher." when the new doctor of law read the Merton test paper, he suddenly had a little insight in his heart.


    Mozi doesn''t want to get involved in such dirty work. Does the emperor want to?


    Thinking of this, the new doctor of law suddenly trembled, and the examination paper in his hand was like a thousand pounds, because the road to the rise of Legalists was in his hands.


    "Han Shi, although you and I hold different opinions, how can students ignore the future of legalism?" the new doctor of law firmly said in his heart.


    "Doctor, how should Mohist School judge this volume?" a group of teaching assistants hesitated.


    Other students choose the combination of etiquette and law to fit the theme. The three princes are far-sighted and far-reaching, but the Mexican family is unique and gives the Legalists the right to independence..


    The new doctor of law said without hesitation: "the wine worship Lord once said that the winner of the Imperial College year-old examination is determined by the article. The Mohist school has a new idea. Its legal strategy is the most fair and just, and should be a class A."


    "What about the three princes?" the assistant in Qingyi asked.


    Merton proposed to use a third party to adjudicate the affairs of Mojia village, which naturally ensures absolute fairness and justice. If Mojia Zi is a Class A at ordinary times, however, at the moment, there are three princes participating in the Imperial College year-old examination, and there are only three in a class. If Mojia Zi is given a class, there are only two places in a class. How can the three princes be divided!


    The new doctor of law shook his head and said, "the Emperor didn''t let the three princes come down to the Imperial College to take the year-old exam. In my opinion, although the literary talent of the three princes is extraordinary, it''s not enough to evaluate the first class and the second class."


    No matter which of the three princes is brushed down, they will lose face. It''s better to evaluate the top two at the same time, that is, they affirm the literary talent of the three princes and won''t offend anyone.


    "Yes!" the teaching assistants looked at each other and had to nod..


    Soon, the Imperial College heard again that mojiazi won another top in the law examination,


    So far, Merton''s year-old test score is five subjects and one class!

 Chapter 387

    "Five families and one class!"


    After the news spread from the Imperial College, it soon spread all over Chang''an city.


    I didn''t expect that in the year-old law examination that everyone is least optimistic about, coupled with the sniping of the three princes, the new doctor of law gave mojiazi a armour under pressure, which is enough to prove how satisfied the new doctor of law is with the mojiazi''s law examination paper.


    "As long as it is the last imperial college year-old test of the MOH family, it will be an unprecedented six subjects and one grade in the Imperial College!" a scribe suddenly exclaimed.


    "Six families and one class!"


    The crowd roared, and they suddenly felt a sense of towering over Mohist school.


    Yongan square.


    "Law a!" Han Zheng looked up in surprise at the old porter who came to inform him.


    "Yes, up to now, Lord Mo has five subjects and one A. if Lord Mo can move to the next city, it will be great." the old porter exclaimed with a look. He has been following Han in the Imperial College for many years. Naturally, he knows how valuable it is to reach five subjects and one a, not to mention the unique six subjects and one a.


    Who would have thought that the polite young man who came to visit soon could have come to this step.


    "He didn''t let me down after all." Han Zheng said with a pleased face.


    The old porter also sighed in his heart. He knew that the man the master said was the new doctor of law. He was Han Zheng''s most proud disciple, but he made a bluntly contradictory choice in Li Shimin''s pardon of 300 death row prisoners.


    However, the new doctor of Mohism finally made a choice. In the choice of the future road of legalism, the new doctor of law chose Legalism and resisted the pressure to give Merton a class in law.


    Han Zheng looked at the manuscript in his hand and couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction.


    "Judicial independence!"


    Han Zheng muttered to himself. In his opinion, this is probably the most beautiful word in the world.


    When Merton came to him, he mentioned ruling Mexico by law and giving him independent adjudication power. In fact, Han Zheng was already excited at that time.


    He deliberately asked mojiazi to write a law article for the year-end examination to his satisfaction, so as to test not mojiazi''s knowledge, but mojiazi''s determination.


    As a legalist, he clearly knows that since the past dynasties, all Legalists who can succeed have the support of a strong figure. If Mohist Zi doesn''t even dare to disclose his ideas to the world, he naturally doesn''t have the need to fool around with Mohist Zi.


    Fortunately, the mojiazi didn''t disappoint him. Instead of writing the proposition of ruling Mexico by law and judicial independence in the law examination, they planned it in an orderly manner, which made people couldn''t help but be convinced.


    "Tong! Pack up and get ready to move!" Han Zheng smiled.


    "Move?" the old Porter said in surprise. "Did the master agree to your Majesty''s invitation?"


    The old porter knows that his majesty once invited Han Zheng to join the main punishment department. Is his master really ready to show his ambition.


    Han Zheng shook his head and said, "ready to move to Mojia village."


    "Ah!" the old porter was stunned.


    He could not imagine that his master was unwilling to accept the post of minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment. Instead, he went to govern a Mojia village. One was the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, who was an important Minister of the imperial court, and the other was a position where even Li Zheng''s power was not as good as, or even no official position. This was too different.


    Han Zheng looked at the direction of the palace and sighed secretly. Even if he entered the Ministry of punishment, I''m afraid he can''t change the current situation. It''s better to start from scratch in Mojia village and walk out a future road for Legalists.


    In the palace.


    "What? The first class of Mohist school! We are the second class!"


    The three of Li Chengqian were preparing for the Imperial College in Chongwen hall. When they learned about the ranking, they couldn''t help frowning.


    Li Tai, in particular, was greatly unconvinced when he learned that Mohist Zi had won another armour. In his opinion, it was more than enough to comment on one armour for his article.


    "Can there be an article from Mohist school?" Li Tai couldn''t wait to say.


    "This is the article of Yijia from the Imperial College. Please check it."


    A eunuch handed in an excerpted article. The law school excerpted all the articles of the Imperial College and sent them to the palace.


    Li Tai didn''t care about other articles, but immediately turned to Merton''s articles and couldn''t wait to read them.


    "With the rule of law!"


    After a long time, Li Tai looked at each other, wondering whether the Mo family was whimsical or original.


    After reading it, Li Chengqian and Li Ke also lamented for a long time.


    "The law is the most important and fair. Merton''s article will treat the Mojia village and outsiders fairly. It really beats me a lot." Li Chengqian nodded. No matter how beautiful their article is, it can''t escape the biggest loophole in the rule of man, human accident. Merton''s article perfectly solves this problem.


    "If you don''t suffer from scarcity but inequality, and if you don''t suffer from poverty but anxiety, the Mojia village will be prosperous as soon as the government comes out." Li Ke sighed. He also admired the wonderful ideas of Mojia Zi.


    Li Tai was so depressed that he didn''t expect that Merton could play tricks in governing a small village. A Mexican French cooperation.


    "This time, let the Mohist take a trick, the last imperial college exam! Let''s compete again." Li Tai secretly said in his heart.


    Tai Chi hall.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton''s manuscript in his hand and couldn''t help thinking deeply.


    Merton doesn''t want to be a villain, and Li Shimin doesn''t like to be a villain. Emperors of all dynasties often pardon the world. For what, he doesn''t want to have a cruel reputation in future generations.


    But they don''t know that even after the amnesty, the probability of the second crime of the villains after the amnesty is still very high.


    What''s more, once the Royal relatives, senior officials and dignitaries violate the law, they often cry and plead for mercy. People who write letters to plead their feelings gather and punish them ruthlessly. I''m afraid they are a little ungrateful. If they don''t punish, they will trample on the national law. If they can throw the villain to the Ministry of punishment


    Li Shimin''s eyes are getting brighter and brighter. As an eternal emperor, he has a keen eye on nature and Superman, and is keenly aware of the brilliance of this method.


    Once the judiciary is independent, the royal family can be alone and never have to worry about these things. However, although this law is good, it also does harm to the thinning of imperial power.


    "Han Zheng must be very satisfied!"


    As for the agreement between Han Zheng and Merton, he is very clear. Since Merton has given him so much power, I''m afraid Han Zheng has made a choice!


    "Real gold is not afraid of fire. Whether it is good or bad, let Mojia village be the pilot first, and then we will see." Li Shimin narrowed his eyes.


    Although Li Shimin is very excited about Merton''s plan, decentralization is a royal taboo. Of course, Li Shimin is extremely cautious.


    "The doctor of law gave Merton a grade?" Li Shimin narrowed his eyes. Both doctors of law agreed with Merton''s point of view, which shows the determination of Legalists.


    Pound immediately bowed his head and said, "yes, up to now, Merton has five subjects and one A. Chang''an city is crazy. They are speculating that Merton can reach the unprecedented six subjects and one A."


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "such a prosperous situation is naturally expected. People come to drive the Imperial College."


    For a moment, the situation in the National Academy of Sciences will change.

 Chapter 388

    Guozijian.


    "Doctor of law, what you have done! The MOH family has five subjects and one class." Liu Yinian said angrily.


    He had thought that this time the Mohist school was determined to break its halberd and sink into the sand, but he didn''t expect that even so, the Mohist school still won the first prize in law, and of course, the doctor of law who contributed the most was the doctor of law in front of him.


    He couldn''t understand why the doctor of law, who usually defended the imperial power, abandoned the three princes and gave full support to the Mexican family.


    Doctor of law, unmoved, said calmly, "in terms of articles, the articles of Mohist school should be one class!"


    Liu Yinian choked and couldn''t help looking at Kong Yingda, the Imperial College''s sacrificial wine. At first, Kong Yingdali ranked among the public and decided to decide whether to win or lose this year''s examination based on the article. If the doctor of law determined that Mozi''s article was a class one, no one could change it.


    Kong Yingda took a deep look at the doctor of law. He also read the articles of Mohist Zi. Naturally, he knew the reason why the doctor of law supported Mohist Zi.


    "What about the three princes? How do you ask the Imperial College to explain to the emperor!" Liu Yinian said angrily.


    Although the three princes have all won the second prize, although their grades are good, they are not perfect. That''s the poor work of the Imperial College!


    All the imperial college students could not help complaining and looking at Dr. LV Xue. The three princes came to the Imperial College for the year-old examination. It should have been a matter of honor for the Imperial College, but it was a mess because of the doctor of law.


    The doctor of law sneered at the speech and retorted: "the education of Chongwen museum itself is different from the Imperial College. The three princes have abnormal performance when they first came to the Imperial College. It''s understandable. If the three princes participated in the year-old examination, how would you deal with it?"


    Immediately all the doctors looked at each other and learned arithmetic together. Needless to say, the arithmetic of his Highness the prince was taught by Mozi. Calligraphy is exquisite Kung Fu. The fonts of the three princes are not famous.


    As for the four schools and the Guozi school, did you ever think that the three princes could make articles beyond "Shi Shuo" and "Shi en San Pian". I''m afraid they would have made the same choice as the doctor of law.


    If "Shi Shuo" and "Shi en San Pian" are buried, I''m afraid they will become sinners in history.


    "Well, now that it''s done, don''t argue. There must be no mistakes in the next imperial college entrance examination." Kong Yingda waved his hand to stop the unnecessary argument.


    Immediately, everyone focused on Dr. Ma Jiayun of the Imperial College. There was only one last game left. It was up to him whether he could prevent mojiazi from getting six subjects and one a.


    Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, immediately heard the speech and smiled bitterly. In the face of the Mexican family like a river crossing Raptor, he had no bottom in his heart.


    "I''ll do my best!" Ma Jiayun told himself first.


    Seeing Ma Jiayun''s lack of confidence, Kong Yingda all frowned, but it was hard to say anything.


    "The year-old exam is about to begin. I''d better go to meet the three Highnesses first!" Kong Yingda sighed.


    Guozi prison,


    With a squeak, the royal carriage stopped. After the three of Li Chengqian got out of the car, they were about to come forward to see the ceremony. But suddenly I saw a familiar figure.


    "Emperor!"


    Kong Yingda exclaimed.


    "See the emperor"


    The Imperial College people came forward to salute one after another.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "today is really a private visit in micro clothes. There is no need to see a gift."


    The eunuchs all understood one after another and quickly invited Li Shimin to enter the eunuch. Li Chengqian and his three went to the examination room of bingshe. A group of eunuch doctors accompanied Li Shimin to walk in the eunuch.


    "Your Majesty is honored to come to the Imperial College. If the students learn about it, they will be very honored." Kong Yingda arched his hand.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I didn''t mean to disturb too many people when I came here today. Let the students finish the last subject at ease!"


    "What the emperor said is very true," Kong Yingda said.


    "The last subject is imperial college?" Li Shimin looked at Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College.


    Ma Jiayun hurriedly replied, "if you go back to the emperor, it is the Imperial College year-old examination."


    "The year-old exam is about to begin. Don''t delay the candidates because of me," Li Shimin said.


    "Your Majesty is kind!" Ma Jiayun was about to take the order. Suddenly, he had an idea and turned to salute Li Shimin. "The Imperial College trained all the future officials of the Tang Dynasty and all the students of the son of heaven. It would be better for your majesty to write questions for this year''s examination!"


    Ma Jiayun had long been in a dilemma. The whole Imperial College placed the heavy task of sniping mojiazi on him, but in the face of mojiazi who did not play cards according to common sense, Ma Jiayun really had no confidence.


    Since no matter what you do, you may make a mistake, it''s better to give the title to the emperor. If the emperor gives the title, no matter what the total ranking of Mohist Zi is, no one can blame him. He doesn''t want to get into the dilemma of doctor of law.


    Li Shimin''s eyes brightened when he heard the speech and couldn''t help pondering.


    Other doctors secretly scolded Dr. Taixue for being crafty and crafty, and even came up with this move, which not only flattered the emperor, but also got rid of the black pot.


    "That''s good!"


    Even if everyone knew Ma Jiayun''s plan, they had to hold their nose to speak for him.


    Li Shimin nodded in his heart and said, "what we are working hard for is only the prosperity of the people and the strength of the country. Yes, let''s take the prosperity of the people and the strength of the country as the topic."


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Ma Jiayun got what he wanted and immediately got up and went to bingshe to invigilate the exam.


    Looking at Ma Jiayun''s departure, Kong Yingda arched his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the year-old exam is nearly an hour. If an old minister leads your majesty to visit the Imperial College."


    Li Shimin nodded happily.


    Bingshe.


    Ma Jiayun stepped into the prison and wrote, "the people are rich and the country is strong."


    Everyone was stunned. They couldn''t help but aim at Merton and Li Chengqian with their remaining light.


    When it comes to the wealth of the people, I''m afraid no one can compare with mojiazi. It took Merton only one year to develop Mojia village from a poor village to the richest village in the Tang Dynasty, and mojiazi has also become the famous God of wealth in Chang''an city.


    As for the strength of the country, the three princes have suffered from royal education, and I''m afraid they have the most advantage. I''m afraid they are close to each other.


    Merton also took an unexpected look at Ma Jiayun. He didn''t expect that the Imperial College didn''t embarrass himself this time.


    Only the three of Li Chengqian suddenly understood the reason. I''m afraid such a topic was not written by the doctor of Taixue, but by their father and Emperor.


    Li Tai said coldly, "even if it is fair competition, the king is not afraid."


    He has long been familiar with the policy of governing the country. He will be determined to win this topic. Li Chengqian and Li Ke also go all out. With Li Shimin, they naturally do their best.


    Merton''s heart moved and he raised his pen to meditate.


    Merton has long been familiar with the policy of enriching the people and strengthening the country for all kinds of information explosion in later generations, but if it is written, although it is impeccable, I''m afraid the doctor of Taixue won''t even read it.


    Because since it is the year-old examination of the National Academy of Sciences, the content is very important, but the literary talent can not be ignored.


    Merton smiled cunningly. Everyone would think that he would write about the strategy of enriching the people, but this time he wrote about the strategy of strengthening the country.


    Merton recalled for a moment and wrote on rice paper.


    Young Tang said!

 Chapter 389

    Young people''s thinking is agile, flexible and active, and easy to accept new things. When Merton entered the National Academy, the impression of many teachers is deep-rooted, and has always been mainly to prevent hostility.


    However, among the Guozijian students, except for a few individual students, most of their perception of Merton changed from hostility to admiration.


    Young people don''t value the opinions of their families. They only admire their talents. Merton also makes many friends in the Imperial College. Qin Huaiyu won''t say it for the time being, plus Zu Mingjun, Kong huisuo and so on.


    However, what Merton wants to write is not a later version of Liang Qichao''s "Young China theory". In the Tang Dynasty, there is no environment for Liang Qichao at that time. If he forcibly copies it, he can only have a donkey''s mouth not a horse''s leg.


    What Merton really wants to write is the reading version of young China. Once this reading version is published, it can make people excited and blood boiling on any occasion.


    Moreover, the Tang Dynasty has been established for only 16 years and has been handed down for only two generations. Just like a young man, it is booming, which is a perfect fit for this article. Merton changed China into the Tang Dynasty and wrote a "young Tang theory" belonging to this era


    Merton carefully recalled this article. During his study in later generations, Merton had the honor to participate in this large-scale recitation. Although he was only a member of the neutral tone in the corner, the feeling of blood boiling is still fresh in his memory. Now in retrospect, every word is still in front of him.


    "Heaven and earth are vast, heaven and earth are boundless, and the young Tang Dynasty should stand firm and be self-improvement." Merton straightened his body and wrote solemnly. Under his attention, Ma Jiayun keenly noticed that Merton was out of tune with the students around him, just like standing out from the crowd. Other students either thought hard or buried their heads in writing, And Merton gave him the feeling that he was not a student in the examination room, but that there was a faint confidence of a generation of literary giants to write and splash ink, and a kind of arrogance to give up.


    Self confidence, right is self-confidence. Mohist''s self-confidence has the style of surpassing the three princes. After a flash in Ma Jiayun''s eyes, his heart is slightly excited. Maybe an article that shocked the world will be born in front of him today.


    "The red sun rises at the beginning, and its path is bright. Rivers flow out, and the ocean pours. Hidden dragons soar into the abyss, scales and claws fly. Milk tigers roar in the valley, and all animals are terrified.


    The hawk and Falcon test their wings, and the wind and dust absorb them. The first child of a strange flower is born, and the emperor is born. The hair of a dry general is thick, and it has its awn.


    The sky wears its Cang and the earth wears its yellow. Even though it has a history of thousands of years, there are eight wasteland in the horizontal. The future is like the sea and the future is long. "


    After Merton''s men kept doing it at one go, they looked around and saw green faces around them. After today''s year-old examination, these students must go out of the Imperial College, like the rising sun and unlimited potential, like a hidden dragon out of the abyss and a milk tiger down the mountain,


    Start to show your ambition.


    No matter how smooth or even degenerate they will become in the future, at least for this moment, their mind is sincere, a fearless young man eager for the future. How can such a young man not be praised.


    "It''s beautiful that my young Tang Dynasty is not old with the sky! It''s magnificent that my young Tang Dynasty is boundless with the country!


    How beautiful I am! I am not old with the sky! How magnificent I am! I have no boundaries with the country! "


    Merton wrote twice in a row. Only then did he express his passionate feelings in his pen. Since he came to this magnificent era, how can he do nothing? He should fly like an eagle and Falcon and strike nine days.


    Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, did not know when he had stopped behind Merton. When he saw each one, he was confident. Everyone sprinkled their ambitions in his pen. He thought that his article was still a real policy of governing the country. With this method, Datang would certainly be able to enrich the people, strengthen the country and stand proudly in the world.


    This is the boy!


    A group of Datang teenagers who will never admit defeat.

 Chapter 390

    The bell rang at the end of the year-end examination of the Imperial College, and all the students were relieved. So far, the year-end examination of the whole Imperial College was officially ended.


    All the students of bingshe couldn''t help looking at Merton and secretly guessed in their hearts whether the mojiazi could make another miracle and get a grade in the law examination this time.


    If so, I''m afraid the mojiazi will be an unprecedented six subjects and one class in the Imperial College.


    "I''m afraid it''s impossible to learn one class of law?" Li Tai sneered. He knew the routine of the Imperial College very well. If Mo Jiazi''s articles beat him a lot, the Imperial College had to give him one class. In order not to offend them, they could only be divided into two classes.


    On the contrary, if one of them exceeds the MOH family, the first three can only be their three brothers.


    The prosperity of the people and the strength of the country is the way of governing the country. Li Tai thinks that who is his opponent in the whole Imperial College? What he attaches importance to is his two brothers. As for the poems written by Mo Jiazi, it is OK, but this is the way of governing the country. Even the flowers and flowers written are of little use, and words are the most suitable.


    In particular, Li Tai also knows an advantage that Merton doesn''t know, that is, the arrival of Li Shimin. For Li Shimin''s preferences, Li Tai thinks that no matter whether the Mohist school can reach the unprecedented record of six subjects and one class a this time, this session of the Imperial College will still be talked about by everyone after the new year.


    "This year''s achievements are really good. The Imperial College has cultivated many good seedlings."


    Li Shimin was secretly proud. He had foresight and sent the Mo family to the Imperial College. Otherwise, how could such a grand event happen


    Apart from the freak Merton, the students of the Imperial College have produced many good seedlings this time. Some articles have unique views. Even he can''t help nodding frequently, so the students will become the pillars of the Tang Dynasty in the future.


    Especially when Li Shimin saw that Qin Huaiyu, who was called a scum of the Imperial College, could even get the top three in mathematics, his eyes almost didn''t fall off. Cheng Yaojin, an old man, showed off.


    "Go back to the emperor, the year-old exam has been successfully completed, please refer to it!" Ma Jiayun recovered from the shock and quickly bowed down.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin''s heart moved.


    Li Shimin naturally had no time to mark the papers for the Imperial College. Only a few papers from bingshe were sent to Li Shimin, including those from the three princes and Merton.


    "The three princes are indeed great talents. Their literary talent can be called an old way of governing the country. When they grow up in the future, they will become the right arm of his majesty." Kong Yingda accompanied Li Shimin to review the way. When he saw the examination papers of Li Chengqian, he couldn''t help nodding with satisfaction, especially Li Tai''s literary talent.


    "I''m a naughty boy, but I can''t afford to be praised by Kong Aiqing!" Li Shimin said, but he was very happy in his heart.


    On a whim, he wanted to take an examination of the knowledge of the three princes and put them in the Imperial College. The same students competed fairly and did not disappoint him. He was quite satisfied with the strategy of governing the country in the article.


    When the Imperial College heard the speech, they immediately showed a knowing smile. Even the emperor was very satisfied with the examination papers of the three princes. In this way, it is natural to rate the three princes as one.


    However, at the moment, Merton''s article has not been reviewed. It is not easy for everyone to make a hasty conclusion and wait patiently.


    Finally, a unique examination paper appeared in Li Shimin''s hands.


    Looking at the neat and small pen font, Li Shimin did not look at the name, but also knew that this was Merton''s test paper. Although Li Shimin was not interested in the dispute over pen and brush, he saw Merton''s test paper now. Li Shimin felt a little more fond of Merton''s test paper.


    It can save time, effort, money and ink, and write good words. Who doesn''t like such a pen?


    "Say Tang Danian is young!"


    When Li Shimin saw the title, he read it.


    Kong Yingda said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, the Mohist used a pen. The general way of writing is to read from left to right. It should be, said the young Tang Dynasty!"


    "Young Tang said!"


    When they heard the speech, they were shocked. "Ma Shuo" and "Shi Shuo" are all articles that can be spread through the ages, and Merton has another article "young Tang Shuo", how can we not shock the people.


    Merton was only the title of the article, which immediately made the Imperial College people abandon their work and look forward to it.


    Liu Yinian felt uneasy. The first class of the three princes had been determined, and he was afraid that it would increase the waves. He looked forward to Merton''s mediocrity, but with the "Ma Shuo" and "Shi Shuo" Zhuyu in front, no one dared to hold too much hope.


    "It seems that Merton is going to never look back on his argumentative style."


    Li Shimin realized that he was looking forward to the examination papers in his opponent. If the "young Tang theory" in his hand can be comparable to the "teacher theory", then he must have a worthwhile trip today.


    Thinking of this, he no longer had the awkward feeling of reading from left to right, and read it carefully word by word.


    "Heaven and earth are vast, heaven and earth are boundless, Datang youth, stand tall and be self-improvement." Li Shimin only read one sentence in his heart, and his heart was immediately agitated.


    The Tang Dynasty established a country for 16 years, just like the text said, just like a teenager.


    "Young Datang, young Datang!" Li Shimin chewed the move repeatedly, and felt more and more profound.


    "... therefore, today''s responsibility lies not in others, but in my youth!"


    As soon as Li Shimin''s words fell, the whole audience was in an uproar.


    Merton is so proud. What''s in my youth? Doesn''t it mean that it''s his Mohist son who bears the responsibility of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Mohists are too proud of themselves," Liu Yinian said angrily.


    However, others were solemn. In just one year, Mozi made many achievements, created Qu Yuan plows and four-wheel carriages, and defeated drought, locusts and floods. It can be said that it is not too much to shoulder the responsibility of the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 391

    In the world''s impression, the young man''s body has not grown up, his shoulders can''t resist, his hands can''t lift, and his mind is immature, impulsive and impetuous. However, since the emergence of mojiazi in Chang''an city.


    The world suddenly realized that a little boy could make achievements that make adults ashamed, and even take charge of a theory that benefits millions of people.


    "If a young man is wise, the country will be wise, and if a young man is rich, the country will be rich;..... If a young man is male to the earth, the country will be male to the earth." Li Shimin finished reading it at one breath and enjoyed it vividly.


    The topic of this time is that the people are rich and the country is strong, but Merton did not mention the policy of governing the country. Even if everyone knows well that if you want to be rich, you should build roads first. Throughout the article, it is said that both youth and the country are prosperous and lose.


    A group of Guozijian doctors have long put down their work. In the face of such an exciting article, they don''t want to miss a word.


    "Confidence!"


    "Domineering!"


    "Excited!"


    "Hot blood!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Under the words of Mohist school, the images of young people who are unnecessarily arrogant and give up their lives appear on the paper. Even a group of old masters can''t help but be excited and shocked.


    The youth is the future of the Tang Dynasty. The society is constantly changing. If the youth have deeper knowledge and stronger ability, it will naturally promote the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty from generation to generation.


    To make Datang strong, this is the responsibility of Datang youth. The youth''s task is to shoulder their responsibilities during this period and prepare for the important tasks in the future.


    What the youth represents is the future. The height that the Tang Dynasty can reach in the future is determined by the youth of the Imperial College. When they think of this, they are shocked. They are all blind. They are often proud of the strength and status of adults, but ignore the infinite future of young years.


    "The red sun rises at the beginning, and its way is bright. The future is like the sea, and the future is long."


    Red sun, ambush, hidden dragon, suckling tiger, Falcon, newborn! The images of promising teenagers are very full and fascinating by these metaphors.


    The youth is like a red sun, rising slowly, and the youth is like a suckling tiger, trying its claws and teeth for the first time! All animals are shocked and frightened. Young people are like eagles. They first spread their wings and aim at the sky.


    Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, don''t bully the young poor! Only teenagers have boundless prospects and unlimited potential. Only teenagers are the future of Datang and they are the inheritance of China.


    The Imperial College eunuchs were so impressed that they were immediately ashamed of their prejudice against Merton. When Merton appeared and invented the pen, they were frightened, opposed and even created obstacles. When Merton wrote the teacher''s statement and shouted that the teacher should not be better than the disciple, and the disciple should not be inferior to the teacher, the masters thought their dignity had been offended, Suddenly we shared a common hatred. Is this not the perennial prejudice against teenagers?


    In fact, they are not only so to Merton, but also really pay attention to a group of young students. I''m afraid they are more overlooking and blindly ask them to obey. If they don''t obey, they will be suppressed with Shiwei.


    At this moment, Merton represents all teenagers and cries out their voices to adults. We teenagers have a future like the sea, and the future will be long.


    "Beautiful is my youth hall, not old with the sky! Magnificent is my Tang youth, boundless with the country!"


    The cry twice in a row immediately sublimated all emotions to the extreme. Everyone seemed to see the passionate cry of the indomitable Mohist who led the Mohist village to cut the thorns and forge ahead in front of him.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Before that, no matter how much success Merton has made, they will rely on their own identity and status to say contemptuously that yellow haired children, hairless mouths and weak work!


    At this moment, everyone no longer despised Merton, but only looked dignified.


    At this moment, everyone has nothing to do with age, official position and identity. Merton has an equal dialogue with them with an article on young Tang Dynasty.


    What is the policy of governing the country and making the people rich and the country strong? Only young people rise up and Datang should really become rich and strong, otherwise the most exquisite theories and methods can only be empty talk.


    This is the confidence of teenagers.


    When Li Shimin finished reading, his voice fell, and the whole Imperial College was silent. There was a sound of dropping needles. Each one was trembling. Even if Ma Jiayun, a doctor of Imperial College, had read it once, he was still excited. It was the glory of his life that such an article could be completed under his eyes.


    "Datang boy, Datang boy! Merton, you really didn''t disappoint me."


    Li Shimin put down his examination paper and sighed in his heart. At this moment, he didn''t even realize that he had put Merton in an equal position.


    Merton compares the latent dragon and suckling tiger to teenagers, and compares the promising teenagers to the booming Tang Dynasty. Nominally speaking of youth, isn''t it talking about the Tang Dynasty.


    As much as Merton expects of the youth, he is optimistic about the Tang Dynasty. Such self-expression is thousands of times stronger than the flattery and loyalty of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.


    This is not only for the youth, but also for the Tang Dynasty. This is the most touching part of Li Shimin. He never thought that Merton had such a strong emotion for the Tang Dynasty.


    "Old minister ashamed!" Kong Yingda bowed down first.


    "I''m so ashamed!" all the doctors in the Imperial College said one after another.


    "The Imperial College is the place to train future officials of the Tang Dynasty, and don''t have any selfish thoughts. The Tang Dynasty is the most important thing!" Li Shimin said with a heavy face.


    Obviously, Confucianism has occupied the absolute power in the Imperial College, and the discourse power of mathematics and law is very small. Especially in the case of Merton''s entry into the Imperial College, Li Shimin was extremely disappointed by the reaction of the Imperial College from students to teachers.


    This is a place to train officials for the Tang Dynasty, not a Confucian institution! Li Shimin stared at everyone with sharp eyes, and everyone bowed their heads and hands.


    "I''ll take your orders."


    At this moment, there is no doubt that Merton once again won the Imperial College. The articles of Li Chengqian and Merton were boring.


    It''s not that the literary talent of the three is bad, but that the story of the young Tang Dynasty is too amazing and not a crime of war.


    "Your Majesty, please read it in person!" Ma Jiayun, doctor of Imperial College, handed over the Zhu pen.


    Li Shimin took over and heavily wrote "a" and "a" on Merton''s examination paper. So far, Merton won the first grade of Imperial College again and became the only one of six subjects in the Imperial College.


    "Six families and one class!"


    Kong Yingda suddenly felt that no one had broken this achievement in the Imperial College. You know, the Imperial College included all the elites of the whole Tang Dynasty. Everyone worked hard and had their own strengths. It was too difficult to pressure everyone. Today, the Mohist school did it and convinced everyone.


    "Well, let me meet some of the best youths in Datang today," Li Shimin said.


    During his trip, there was no such link, but after reading Merton''s article, Li Shimin suddenly had the impulse to see these Datang''s future.

 Chapter 392

    In the Imperial College.


    After the end of the year-old examination, a group of students found that the whole Imperial College had already been blocked. The whole Imperial College was full of armed hundred riding elites. The whole Imperial College was blocked.


    Seeing that the three princes also stayed in the Imperial College, there was a vague guess in everyone''s heart.


    It''s impossible for the three princes to show such a big show. There''s only one possibility. The emperor arrives.


    All the imperial college students were immediately hot in their hearts.


    They are about to enter the official career. If their policy of governing the country can enter the eyes of the emperor and let the emperor remember their name, their official career will be clear and smooth.


    Soon, the students consciously and orderly lined up and gathered in accordance with each prison.


    The three of Li Chengqian naturally stood in the team of C house because they took the exam in C house.


    "It''s hard for brother Gaoming to hide it from me!"


    Merton stood behind the line and looked at Li Chengqian with a bitter smile. He didn''t expect that a year-old imperial college examination would bring not only the three princes, but also Li Shimin.


    Li Chengqian smiled cunningly and said, "brother Mo, I''m wronged. My father came suddenly, but he didn''t come for me. In my opinion, it''s mostly you who have five subjects and one a in a row. Even my father was shocked."


    Merton was shocked when he heard the speech. I''m afraid he really caused all this.


    "I''m afraid five subjects and one a are not brother Mo''s limit. With brother Mo''s talent, it''s not a difficult problem to reach one a in the imperial college examination. In this way, I congratulate Merton in advance for creating the Imperial College record and reaching the unprecedented six subjects and one A." a giggling voice came from house B.


    Merton turned his head and saw that this was what wesan in the nearby Yishe team said. As soon as he said this, all the students immediately had sharp eyes.


    Young people are competitive, and those who can enter the Imperial College are arrogant. Who can admit that they are inferior to others? Even if the Mo family has five subjects and one class, they are still full of confidence in themselves.


    It has to be said that as soon as wesan said this, many people aroused their competitive heart. Li Tai on the side suddenly looked unhappy. He was quite unconvinced by the last law year''s examination. This time, the questions were quite in line with his heart. In addition, he knew that today his father came to the Imperial College in person, so he would certainly read the papers in person.


    This time, he did his best to show his ambition. There is no doubt that he will be determined to learn a class.


    "Six families and one class!"


    Not only Li Tai, but also other Guozijian students are unconvinced.


    Li Chengqian couldn''t help but look at Wei Si''an and said unhappily, "there is no list at the moment. How can you guess who is the first class."


    Wei Si''an is the direct son of the Wei family in the south of the city. Li Chengqian once saw this man and thought he was a gentleman before. Now when he saw this man stirring up discord, he was unhappy and said something for Merton.


    Wei Si''an smiled and said, "Your Highness doesn''t know anything about the way to get rich. I''m convinced by brother mo. if you want to get rich, you should build roads first, have more children and trees! These famous words of getting rich have been spread all over the country with the benefits of brick roads and have been recognized by everyone. In this way, the first-class scholar of Mohist school is not in your bag."


    As soon as wesan''s voice fell, many of the people around him laughed with Bandon. They were the favored children of the Imperial College. They despised Merton''s rude slang of having more children and trees.


    In Guozijian, a Confucian school with a strong scope of advocating "don''t see and don''t listen", how can such a thing as having children be said on the table.


    Merton narrowed his eyes, stared at Wei Sian and said, "I didn''t expect that Mr. Wei inquired about Mojia village in detail."


    "The official road in the south of the city is well built, and the way home is convenient several times. Naturally, I''m curious about the affairs of Mojia village." Wei Si''an disagreed.


    Merton said with a smile, "it''s a pity to have such a good road!"


    As soon as Merton said this, the Imperial College was full of active people. They immediately understood that the Mexican family spent a lot of money on building brick roads, and wesan benefited. However, he became a white eyed wolf and attacked Merton instead.


    "You..."


    Weisi''s face turned red when he settled down. This time, he lost all his face in front of the three princes.


    "But you can rest assured that since Mo has done something, he will not write an article." Merton sneered.


    All the students were relieved. After all, there was evidence of the brilliant achievements of Mojia village. If Merton wrote the policy of enriching the people, I''m afraid no one would be his opponent.


    Li Tai snorted coldly when he heard his words. If Merton wrote the policy of governing the country, how could he compare with him.


    "Silence!" Li Junxian suddenly drank coldly.


    In the hearts of the people, Mu ran looked up and immediately saw Li Shimin in a dragon robe in the sight of the people, accompanied by a group of Guozijian doctors.


    "See the emperor!"


    A crowd of Imperial College Students saluted excitedly.


    Li Shimin raised his arm falsely and said, "you are flat!"


    All the Imperial College Students immediately looked at each other. They are all white bodies now. How can they stand the ceremony of Li Shimin''s court.


    "It''s not the emperor''s slip of the tongue!" the people guessed one after another.


    Li Shimin said again, "you are all flat!"


    The imperial college students realized that Li Shimin really didn''t slip the tongue, but really told them, so they got up at a loss.


    Li Shimin was filled with emotion when he looked at the green faces. Although he had paid attention to the Imperial College before, he now found that it was far from enough. He couldn''t pay too much attention to these teenagers who could determine the fate of the Tang Dynasty.


    "You didn''t hear me wrong. I''m really talking about you, my future love." Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "Students dare not!" the students said one after another.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "why don''t you dare? After today, you will graduate from the Imperial College and will soon be appointed by the imperial court. It''s not wrong for me to call you Aiqing in advance."


    "But when you are about to enter the court, I have something to trust." Li Shimin said.


    "As your majesty ordered," all the students said in unison.


    "What I want to entrust to you is the future of the Tang Dynasty," said Li Shimin.


    The students suddenly looked up and looked unbelievable.


    "The people are rich and the country is strong! That''s what I''ve worked out for you!" Li Shimin continued, looking around for a week. "How can we make the people rich and the country strong? In the future, you will step into officialdom for our herdsmen. The people under your rule are rich and the Tang Dynasty is naturally rich and strong. The people''s prosperity and the country are not empty talk, but the joint efforts of countless officials of the Tang Dynasty."


    "However, what we can decide is now, and it is your responsibility whether the future of the Tang Dynasty is peaceful and safe for the people and the world. Today I entrust the future of the Tang Dynasty to you, and tomorrow I will wait for you in the Tai Chi hall."


    "I obey your orders!"


    The students said proudly.

 Chapter 393

    Until Li Shimin left the Imperial College, all the imperial college students were still in a frenzy and could not extricate themselves. It would be a great trust for the students who have not yet left the Imperial College and are full of blood. I believe that in the future, the trust between kings and officials today will certainly become a good story and will be spread in the Imperial College forever.


    After a long time, all the students recovered a little calm, but from the perspective of energy and spirit, these students took on a new look in a short time.


    When Merton saw the fanatical students, he sighed in his heart that Li Shimin was worthy of being the best of the emperors. With just a few words, he made a lot of students die hard on him. It can be imagined that this group of imperial college students will remember that today''s monarchs and officials trust each other and govern the place wholeheartedly, greatly reducing the chance of corruption.


    "OK, now start to announce the ranking of the year-old examination!" exclaimed Dr. Ma Jiayun of the Imperial College.


    All the students of the Imperial College immediately fell silent and turned their eyes to Merton. Whether the Mohists can reach the unprecedented six subjects and one a of the Imperial College depends on the last one.


    "Merton, I believe you, this time you must be a class!" Qin Huaiyu whispered behind Merton.


    After the three of Li Chengqian followed Li Shimin, Qin Huaiyu came out alive again.


    "Six subjects and one class. Just because others can''t do it doesn''t mean you can''t do it!"


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin also nodded firmly. They believed Merton blindly.


    Merton was immediately moved. It was a worthwhile trip to meet three people in the Imperial College.


    "Five armours and six armours don''t matter, but some false names!" Merton didn''t take it to heart.


    But Merton doesn''t care, it doesn''t mean that other students don''t care. After all, if Merton wants to have six subjects and one class, they have no light on their face. No one wants to have an insurmountable mountain on their head.


    Ma Jiayun, doctor of the Imperial College, slowly looked at a group of students, finally cast his eyes on Merton, showed a knowing smile and said in a loud voice: "the Imperial College won the first place in the first year of the Imperial College..."


    All the students immediately put their hearts on their chest and wanted to hear their names from Ma Jiayun.


    "The first name of the first class is bingshemerton!" Ma Jiayun''s voice suddenly raised.


    Ma Jiayun''s words sounded like a thunder among the Guozijian students, and immediately everyone stayed there.


    "Taixue Yijia!"


    "Six families and one class!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Voices echoed in people''s minds, and an unprecedented record of the Imperial College was born. However, they became the stepping stone of the Mohist school.


    People''s hearts are bitter. Although they try their best, the final outcome is still difficult to accept.


    "Hahaha, Merton, I said you could!"


    Qin Huaiyu laughed excitedly, even more excited than they got six subjects and one a.


    Although Merton had expected this for a long time, when he really heard that he had won one of the six subjects of the National Academy of Sciences, he couldn''t help showing a knowing smile. Classics are always classics and won''t fade because of the times.


    "I can''t wait!" suddenly wesan shouted.


    "Yes, we don''t agree!" many imperial college students immediately shouted, how can the young mind really convince people? Although they admit that the Mohist school is indeed talented, who can be perfect? Unexpectedly, every subject can surpass everyone.


    Ma Jiayun looked fierce and shouted, "nonsense, this is appointed by your majesty. All doctors witnessed it together. How can you allow you to question it?"


    Many students were immediately discouraged, but they were more unconvinced in their eyes.


    As soon as wesan gritted his teeth and raised his head, he said, "in that case, let''s read Merton''s strategy of enriching the people and strengthening the country. It''s amazing and unique. It also makes us convinced."


    "Not bad!" a group of Guozijian students also shouted one after another.


    Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Wei Si''an couldn''t help showing a proud smile. Ma Jiayun, doctor of the Imperial College, couldn''t help looking at Kong Yingda aside. Kong Yingda reluctantly nodded. Since the wood is done, Kong Yingda doesn''t need to be a villain in in vain. The Imperial College can give Mohist six subjects and one class, although some of them make Confucianism lose face, But it can better prove their openness.


    Ma Jiayun nodded and said, "in that case, I''d like to read Merton''s work young Tang Dynasty."


    "Young Tang Dynasty theory"


    All the students suddenly looked back and stared at Merton. Like all the doctors, all the students felt bad when they heard that Merton used the style of argumentative writing again. I''m afraid they will lose.


    A single article title can make people automatically admit defeat. I''m afraid Merton is a young man from ancient times and modern times. He has strong sensitivity and self-esteem, but he can''t be recognized by adults. Merton''s article can be said to shout out their voices. Everyone thinks he is the protagonist in the story. Everyone fantasizes that one day he will be able to stand on the court and guide the country and the country.


    Then they realized that the reason why Li Shimin spoke to them was probably because of Merton''s article, and they had the opportunity to see the holy face.


    This is Merton''s chance for them.


    "Beautiful is my young Tang Dynasty, not old with the sky, magnificent is my young Tang Dynasty, boundless with the country." at the last time of this sentence, all the students immediately read in unison, and the scene was extremely shocking.


    "Brother Mo, great talent! I''m convinced!"


    All the Imperial College Students immediately bowed down and saluted, no matter how arrogant they were. They couldn''t help admiring this article. Merton''s article is about all the Tang teenagers. To deny this article is to deny themselves.


    At the moment, even Wei Si''an was full of bitterness. He never thought that Mohist''s article was so sharp that all students were convinced at one fell swoop. Even if he picked a bone in his egg, he couldn''t find any contradiction


    "Don''t dare, don''t dare, encourage with you!" Merton didn''t dare to ask big, and quickly saluted.


    "Ha ha! Encourage me with you!"


    All the Imperial College Students immediately laughed and said.


    A temporary failure is nothing. They are young people. The future will be long. At that time, it will be up to the Mohist school to compete.


    A group of doctors also smiled one after another, defeated but not discouraged, which is what the Imperial College expected.


    So far, the dispute over the Imperial College has officially ended.


    Merton''s Imperial College Career officially ended.

 Chapter 394

    In Chang''an city.


    In the stable four-wheel carriage, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian are sitting in danger and are rushing back to the palace.


    Along the way, Li Shimin looked out of the window and daydreamed. Li Chengqian was respectful. Li Ke continued to be an invisible person in silence. Only the youngest Li Tai looked like he couldn''t hold his breath. He was restless and wanted to stop talking several times.


    "What? Want to know the final result!" Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling knowingly.


    Li Tai couldn''t wait to say, "please tell your father."


    Not only Li Tai, but even Li Chengqian and Li Ke couldn''t help but have a flash in their eyes. The look of sitting upright and dangerous just now suddenly disappeared.


    Li Shimin pondered and said, "your father and emperor have seen the articles of your three brothers. It''s really good. I didn''t disappoint my father!"


    The three of Li Chengqian immediately stopped breathing, and an excited look appeared on their faces.


    However, Li Shimin turned his voice and said, "however, there are at least ten people in the Imperial College who are not inferior to you. Therefore, as a father, he has set you in the top three!"


    "Top three!"


    Li Tai''s fat face suddenly turned green. He used to be full of self-confidence. He wanted to get the first grade of the Imperial College, but now he has become the third grade. The gap is too big.


    "What about Mojia Zi... Merton?" Li Ke said with a movement in his heart.


    Needless to say, even Li Chengqian, who is as stable as Mount Tai, couldn''t help looking at him.


    Li Shimin said, "Merton is the top one!"


    "Ah!" the three of Li Chengqian immediately exclaimed.


    Merton won the top of the first class again. Wouldn''t it be that they won six subjects and one class. The three of them lost in Merton''s hands twice in a row, but this time they lost even worse and fell directly to the third class.


    Li Tai immediately looked at Li Shimin bitterly. His father and emperor were too eccentric. He was better to the Mexican family than them. Who is your son.


    Seeing Li Tai''s unconvinced face, Li Shimin didn''t think so. This is the young man''s nature.


    "It''s not the father''s bias. You will know the gap when you see Merton''s article." Li Shimin smiled knowingly and handed over a chapter of Merton''s "young Tang theory" copied by Liu Yinian.


    Because Li Shimin couldn''t stand Merton''s writing format from left to right, Liu Yinian didn''t want to be dissatisfied with Merton at all, and immediately wrote a new copy for Li Shimin.


    The recitation version of the story of the young Tang Dynasty was short of words. The three read it at a glance and couldn''t calm down for a long time.


    "Merton''s article should be a Class A, and the child is convinced." Li Chengqian sighed.


    Li Ke and Li Tai also nodded silently. In the face of such eternal articles, compared with their old-fashioned policies of governing the country, there is really no comparability.


    "Now you can see the intention of your father to let you take the imperial college entrance examination." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.


    "I understand! I will redouble my efforts in the future." the three said respectfully.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Although the royal education is good, there is little independent competition, and there are some flatterers and flatterers around, resulting in the arrogant and complacent character of the princes.


    After the Imperial College, the three must have seen that there are days outside the world and people outside the people. Apart from Merton, even other students of the Imperial College have a lot better than the three.


    The three returned to the palace with complex thoughts.


    In Chang''an City, with the spread of the news that Mohist Zi obtained six subjects and one class, it immediately caused an uproar in the literary circle of Chang''an city.


    "Mohist is worthy of Mohist!"


    "Six subjects and one class. If it were the imperial examination, wouldn''t it be that all six subjects were top scholars?"


    Many people in Chang''an City smacked their tongues one after another.


    "There are three in a class. A class doesn''t mean it''s the champion. The top of a class is the champion!" an idle man explained.


    The surrounding citizens immediately stared and said, "then you say, which branch of Merton is not the top of the first class!"


    The idle man immediately concluded. Merton has been writing articles that have been circulating for thousands of years. If he is not the top one, I''m afraid everyone will not accept it.


    The citizens of Chang''an City watched the excitement, but in the literati circle, Merton''s "young Tang theory" immediately caused a literary feast.


    Good articles are hard to find, which is also the reason why those ancient literati and poets were so popular, while Mohists wrote such popular and peerless articles one after another.


    "The story of the young Tang Dynasty! The young man is determined to serve the country. He uses the hidden dragon and suckling tiger to describe the young man, and the young man to describe the Tang Dynasty. It is closely linked and penetrating. I have no regrets in my life if I can read such a good article!"


    "Maybe we all underestimated the Mo family."


    After watching it, many literati were amazed and touched more. Since ancient times, educating children has always been a headache for everyone.


    From the house of emperors and generals to the common people, who doesn''t break their hearts for their children, however, many people keenly find that "young Tang said" will be very helpful to educate their children.


    Which boy read this article, not enthusiastic, not ambitious.


    For a while, Chang''an paper is expensive.


    Countless Chang''an City scribes transcribed the "young Tang said" in the street. Every time they wrote one, people in Chang''an city immediately paid for it and took it home to educate their children.


    "Recite this article to me immediately!" countless fathers took Merton''s young Tang in front of their son at the first time.


    "Ah! Back!"


    When a group of teenagers saw Merton''s name on the title, they immediately became angry.


    Since Merton appeared in Chang''an City, their recitation task has immediately increased too much, "three poems of the frontier fortress" and "Ma Shuo"


    There are also Merton''s advertising poems, and even the mojiazi has to recite a poem.


    What makes people more sad and angry is that the previous ones are still good. Since the beginning of the Mohist Zi''s year-old examination, they have recited "teacher''s theory" and "three pieces of teacher''s kindness" continuously. Now there is another "young Tang''s theory", which makes people unhappy to play.


    "Mojiazi, I hate you!"


    In Chang''an City, countless teenagers looked at the "young Tang theory" in their hands and shouted sadly and angrily.


    However, when they finished reading the "young Tang Dynasty", they all seemed to be flushed and excited, and there was no resentment against Merton in their hearts.


    After reading, teenagers who were originally very resistant to reading, without waiting for adults'' orders, studied hard at their desks one after another, and the effect was immediate.


    However, in the era of extremely low literacy rate in Datang, I''m afraid no one in ten can read and read. How to make Datang''s youth strong and bear the responsibility of Datang''s future.


    For a while, the compulsory education advocated by Master Li was mentioned by everyone again, and was accepted and respected by more and more people.


    It is conceivable that over time, all the teenagers in Datang will be able to read, understand things and understand knowledge. What a yearning moment it will be.


    By then, the future of Datang will be unlimited.

 Chapter 395

    Mo Fu!


    When a carriage stopped slowly in front of the door of Mo mansion, Merton opened the door and suddenly a cold air came to his face.


    "The young master is back!"


    Ziyi, who had been waiting in front of the ink house for a long time, couldn''t help screaming excitedly. Suddenly, the people of the ink house came out one after another.


    "Congratulations on the return of the host with honor!" Xu Jie arched his hand.


    "Six subjects and one class! Young master is mighty!" Ziyi was also excited and flushed with pride.


    All the people in the ink house are proud of the common people. The news that Merton won the sixth grade of the Imperial College came, and the whole people in the ink house also have a big face and are proud of Merton.


    When Merton returned to the Mo mansion, he was treated like a hero in triumph.


    "It''s just an exam," said Merton, waving his hand and feeling uncomfortable.


    "Young master, you must have spent a lot of mental energy these days. The mansion has already prepared delicious food, and you must make it up!" even uncle Yu made a special trip from the fish champion building to congratulate Merton.


    "Hahaha, I can''t wait for uncle Yu''s craft." Merton laughed.


    Soon, the whole ink house was lively and fell into a festive ocean.


    Without a word all night, "the teacher flattered me, but it''s just the students'' feelings for the teenagers all over the world!" Merton said modestly.


    As soon as Master Li''s look changed, he suddenly looked unfulfilled and said tragically: "However, if you want to be a young Tang Dynasty, you must first cultivate my young Tang Dynasty. If you want to be intelligent and independent, you must set up education. However, I have been calling for the implementation of compulsory education for the past six months. Unfortunately, the whole court has never heard of it. The letter sent by the trustee is like a stone sinking into the sea. There is no news at all. So far, there has been no progress except the Mohist village , I don''t want to talk about young Tang. "


    "Master, I want to take advantage of the popularity of young Tang Dynasty to carry out compulsory education!" Merton immediately understood Master Li''s intention.


    Master Li nodded and said, "yes, now the people in Chang''an are talking about compulsory education. If they miss this opportunity, I''m afraid it will be even more difficult."


    "I don''t know how the master prepared and implemented it?" Merton asked.


    "Of course, it was written to the imperial court to set up official schools all over the world and promote compulsory education!" said master Li excitedly.


    "Who will teach these students?" Merton asked.


    "It''s natural to hire a master!" Master Li said readily.


    "If you want to implement compulsory education, there are thousands of students in the world, and how many really qualified teachers are willing to teach." Merton asked.


    Master Li was immediately silent. All those who read wanted to get fame. Few people were willing to teach unless they were poor.


    Merton continued, "even if there are enough teachers, what is the content of the professor?"


    "Confucianism, of course... Hundred schools of thought?" said master Li awkwardly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "compulsory education is education for the whole people. What they cultivate is not the elite of Confucianism or a hundred schools. For an ordinary people, what they need is basic literacy, able to read words, basic arithmetic, and able to meet their basic accounting needs. This is compulsory education, and then is it over?"


    Master Li was stunned and looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton reluctantly continued: "compulsory education is only the most basic education, and the real cultivation of talents is to select the best on the basis of compulsory education, so as to cultivate real pillars."


    "The construction of the school and the salary of the teacher are astronomical figures."


    At this time, Mr. Li found that what he had considered before was too simple. I''m afraid the implementation of compulsory education will be a huge project. The reason why Mojia village can implement compulsory education is that Mojia village is only a village and has strong funds and strong support from Merton. Where else has so much financial and material resources.


    "No matter how difficult it is, someone has to do it!" said master Li dryly.


    Merton nodded and said, "it''s true. Someone really needs to do it. But the first step here is to determine the teaching materials for compulsory education. Dr. Shen has compiled enough mathematics teaching materials for six years from easy to difficult. Now we also need the same supporting literacy books for six years. I don''t know if the teacher can complete this work."


    Master Li''s eyes suddenly brightened. Students generally start at the age of six, and six-year compulsory education is only 12 years old. After that, they choose a hundred theories according to their respective interests and refine them. Such a step-by-step planning is naturally much more persuasive than his previous empty slogans.


    "It''s up to me." Master Li said excitedly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the implementation of compulsory education is a huge project. If you want to implement it, you must rely on your Majesty''s support. Therefore, this literacy book must satisfy your majesty!"


    "Please your majesty?" Master Li was stunned. He just taught people to read. Besides, how can he satisfy your majesty?


    Merton analyzed: "first of all, make these books from easy to difficult, suitable for most students, and the efficiency of character recognition is higher than that of today''s private schools."


    Mr. Li nodded deeply. Today''s Enlightenment students in official schools and private schools usually hold a thousand word text to let students memorize it by rote. It is inefficient and direct. Moreover, it is too difficult. A six-year-old student doesn''t understand anything. He has to recite the dark yellow of heaven and earth. The universe is in a famine. He only knows his words and doesn''t know his meaning.


    "In addition, this literacy book is also responsible for educating students to understand daily etiquette, know advance and retreat, educate students to stay away from danger, understand simple knowledge of saving people and first aid, run through the simple history of previous dynasties, cultivate their recognition of China and serve the imperial court in the future,......."


    Li Fuzi''s eyes grew brighter and brighter. He didn''t expect a literacy book to dwell on so much knowledge. It was essential to integrate the essence of hundreds of families.


    You know, private schools in the Tang Dynasty usually explain with a Book of four books and five classics. If they can really compile a book covering so much knowledge, its advantages will certainly impress the emperor.


    At that time, the book will be promoted all over the country, and as an editor, Li duo will certainly be able to spread in history.


    Merton smiled and said, "this book boy calls it Chinese."

 Chapter 396

    "Chinese!"


    Master Li chewed these two words carefully and couldn''t help nodding.


    Chinese, the language of a country, is indeed just like its name. More importantly, once these books are compiled, reading and literacy is one of them. Secondly, they can popularize some basic common sense. Thirdly, they publicize the loyalty to the monarch and serve the country, which is naturally strongly supported by the Imperial court.


    In this way, the imperial court will not become the resistance to the implementation of compulsory education, but will become the biggest main force of compulsory education. In particular, the emperor must be very excited about being loyal to the king and serving the country.


    "If you have books, you need some teachers!" Merton continued.


    "Master?"


    Master Li frowned and wanted to refute.


    Merton quickly waved his hand and said, "after the successful implementation of compulsory education, how many people read in the world? What should we do with so many more readers at that time?"


    "This?" Master Li immediately frowned.


    "There are more than a million school-age children in the world. If you choose the best one out of ten, there will be no less than 100000 excellent students. Where is the way out for these 100000 excellent students? It should be noted that cultivating a student in a family is not a small amount of money. Can these 100000 students be officials?" Merton said.


    Master Li shook his head solemnly. The imperial examination was held every three years, but only one or two hundred people were admitted each time, which was just a drop in the bucket for 100000 students.


    "Not all families see secondary education. If they don''t have a bright future, I''m afraid it will be even more difficult to implement compulsory education." Merton nodded.


    "You mean to let these excellent students be masters?" Master Li immediately understood Merton''s meaning.


    Merton nodded and said, "first of all, we need a large number of teachers to implement compulsory education. After the implementation of compulsory education, we should choose the best and enter a college specialized in cultivating teachers like the Imperial College. In this way, we can not only cultivate more teachers for compulsory education, but also find a way out for scholars all over the world. Isn''t it the best of both worlds.


    "A college specialized in training teachers?" Li suddenly brightened his eyes.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, since what compulsory education needs to teach is new Chinese and mathematics, the traditional teachers are no longer suitable. It''s better to cultivate themselves. With the continuous establishment of schools, more and more teachers are needed. There are ten roads in the Tang Dynasty, ten counties in each road, ten counties in each County and ten villages in each county. At least 10000 schools need to be built in the whole Tang Dynasty."


    "Ah! Ten thousand!" Master Li was shocked and speechless.


    No wonder he wrote many times, but the stone sank into the sea. I''m afraid the construction of tens of thousands of schools will be astronomical. No wonder Merton said that if we want compulsory education, we must get the support of the emperor. Who can start such a large project without the support of the imperial court.


    "Ten thousand schools need at least twelve masters each, that is, once compulsory education is established, the imperial court can provide at least 120000 master positions." Merton broke another shocking figure.


    "120000 masters!" Master Li was numb.


    Merton said with a smile: "for an official family, it''s natural not to see a teacher in the eyes. However, for ordinary people, it''s no less tempting to let their children become scholars and become a teacher than to be an official."


    Master Li nodded. How many officials are there in Datang? In contrast, the master who has many posts and is easy to be admitted is valued by ordinary people.


    "But can the imperial court afford the salary of 120000 masters?" Master Li smacked his tongue. There are less than 10000 officials in the Tang Dynasty, and the taxes of the imperial court can naturally support it. If you suddenly add the salary of 120000 masters, I''m afraid you can''t catch it!


    "Of course, compulsory education will not be carried out in a handful. In the early stage, it must give priority to the city and gradually popularize it in the countryside. I''m afraid it won''t be effective without 20 years. The tuition fees of students in the early stage are enough to pay the teacher''s salary, and there is no need for the court to allocate much money and food. Compared with the future income, the court still calculates this account clearly."


    "I''m afraid compulsory education will be greatly reduced in this way," sighed Master Li.


    What he has been longing for is the real compulsory education in Mojia village, in which all students enter school and receive education free of charge. If you need to pay tuition fees, I''m afraid the effect will be greatly reduced, and many poor families are simply unable to pay tuition fees.


    Merton said reluctantly, "there''s no way. We can only do it step by step. In the future, the imperial court will become rich and strong. It''s not too late to implement compulsory education at that time. What we can do now is to prepare in advance and go there step by step."


    "Yes, if you don''t, I won''t. I''m afraid the day of universal compulsory education will never come." Master Li stood up and said firmly.


    Now Master Li only feels that his whole body is full of energy. He did not come wrong today. Everything has been clear. He compiled the Chinese language to the satisfaction of the emperor, and then created a special master''s college. The rest is to hand over all the plans to the imperial court. One day, he will be able to realize compulsory education for the whole people.


    "The master is really righteous! Naturally, students can''t be stingy. Mohist hospital is going to build a medical school in Quchi square to train doctors for Mohist hospital. If the master doesn''t dislike it, he can be a neighbor with Hua Lao," Merton said.


    After a year of development, the Mexican hospital has been a great success. If it were not for the lack of doctors, the Mexican hospital would have opened a branch long ago. When it saw the model of women''s medical school, the Mexican hospital immediately prepared to train doctors by itself. However, the scale of the medical school was much larger. Finally, HuaLao and sun Shen discussed and finally selected Quchi square with the cheapest land price.


    "Seriously?" Master Li said in surprise.


    "Why is it difficult? It''s just to build more schools." Merton said bluntly.


    Master Li immediately smiled.


    Merton added: "in addition, Mojia village will build 50 school buildings in Guanzhong area within three years to be driven by the master."


    Mr. Li took a deep look at Merton. If there was a plan to train the master''s college, it might be just on paper, but now if there were 50 school buildings to make use of the trained students, his whole plan for compulsory education began to be on the right path.


    Everything is difficult at the beginning. These fifty school buildings are a timely help.


    Master Li let go of his teacup and said solemnly, "the Mohists have paid so much. I don''t know what they want?"


    Although he is known as a strange Confucian and despises some hypocrites of Confucianism, he is a Confucian after all. Once compulsory education is established, it will certainly bring great reputation to Confucianism. However, Merton gives money and ideas. He doesn''t think his face can be worth so much money.


    Merton smiled and said, "while Confucianism gains fame, it can also cultivate a large number of elite talents. The Mohists just pick up some students who have no intention of officialdom. However, the master can rest assured that being an official and studying ink technology are two kinds of people. There is no conflict between Confucianism and Mohism."


    Master Li immediately smiled bitterly. How many students in the world really entered the officialdom? I''m afraid many frustrated talents went to Mohism. However, the benefits of this matter for Confucianism can not be estimated, and master Li naturally can not refuse this temptation.


    However, Master Li is not a narrow-minded person. Knowing that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for Confucianism, he can only accept it calmly.

 Chapter 397

    After Mr. Li left, Xu Jie immediately flashed in.


    "Dongweng''s name! In this way, the money needed by the imperial court must be doubled, and the money needed is no less than building brick roads." Xu Jie said with admiration on his face.


    The benefits of compulsory education are obvious, but the money consumed is a terrible figure. If you want to maintain Finance, you can only rely more on taxes. In this way, if the imperial court wants to increase taxes and support businessmen, I''m afraid it will be the only choice.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is not our own private affair. The increase of readers is not only beneficial to the imperial court, but also the great development of hundred schools of thought."


    His proposal for compulsory education this time really focuses on the public. Once education rises, it is difficult for Confucianism alone to digest so many talents. After all, there are so many official positions.


    Redundant talents can only be transferred to a hundred theories. At that time, Mohists, doctors, farmers and mathematics will take advantage of the situation. This is a matter of prosperity.


    "I''ve been taught!" Xu Jie suddenly said.


    However, the more so, the greater the possibility of the implementation of this compulsory education, and businessmen can benefit from it.


    "This is the latest account of Mojia village. Please check it!" Xu Jie remembered that he had some business to do, and quickly handed over the account book.


    "Oh!" Merton suddenly became interested and began to read.


    The sales of four wheeled carriages, iron pots, snow salt, steel and relieving thousands of worries have doubled one by one. This year''s development of Mojia village can be described as a great development.


    "Back home, since the brick road in the south of the city was built, the imperial court was ready to build two more brick roads. After the news spread, the sales of four-wheel carriages increased greatly and sold well in Guanzhong." Xu Jie said excitedly.


    Mojia village took advantage of the public loser to give up the four-wheel carriage business, and other carriage workshops have not yet become the neutral position of the climate. It simply monopolized the four-wheel carriage business in this period and made a lot of money.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction. He hired Xu Jie. It was indeed the most correct choice. With Xu Jie''s contacts and experience in business, he directly reduced the number of detours in Mojia village and embarked on formal development from a novice in business.


    "So far, all the underwriters of Datang Shidao have delivered all jieqianchou. However, due to the vigorous publicity of Gongsun and the approaching new year, jieqianchou is in short supply. All the underwriters have asked for additional goods! What does the young master mean?" asked Xu Jie.


    No one expected that a bottle of jieqianchou could be so popular. In addition to the good quality of the wine, Xu Jie was shocked by the spokesperson system proposed by Merton. Everywhere Gongsun went, it was a sensation in the whole city, making jieqianchou''s reputation completely known. Even if the local dealers prepared goods in advance, they were still robbed, They have asked Mojia village to increase supply.


    Merton shook his head without hesitation and said, "jieqianchou is indeed the best wine in Datang at present, but it can be sold at the consistent sky high price. It is more stimulated by hunger sales. Jieqianchou will not add goods this year. What we want is this effect, which makes people who can drink jieqianchou feel honored and those who don''t buy it regret. In this way, jieqianchou can last forever."


    Xu Jie was shocked and said with sincere admiration, "Dong Weng is clever."


    "But if so, if you don''t make money, I''m afraid those dealers will be dissatisfied!" Xu Jie turned his voice.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "then tell them that the supply of Mojia village will be increased by 30% next year. It will be determined as appropriate every year. If you are dissatisfied, Mojia village can terminate the contract with them and the deposit will not be refunded."


    Xu Jie immediately said with confidence: "young master, don''t worry. Xie Qianchou is so popular. Which Dealer doesn''t make a lot of money, and who is willing to give up such a business."


    Having been busy for a long time, Merton sent Xu Jie away.


    "Young master, this is the account book of Mohist food city. Please check it." as soon as Merton took a breath, uncle Yu immediately came in with a large account book.


    "Yes!"


    Merton was expressionless, nodded and looked at it vigorously.


    Finally, when Uncle Yu left, Li Yi couldn''t wait to rush in.


    "Young master, this is the account book of Mojia village."


    "Young master, this is the account book of the Mohist experimental field."


    "Young master, this is the account book of Mo magazine."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton kept looking through the account books. He wanted to vomit. He drove Mo DA and Mo San away impatiently. Mo Wu came in with a thick account book.


    Merton''s eyes turned red and stared at him fiercely. "If you dare to let me see the books of the hospital again, believe it or not, the young master will hit you in the face."


    Mo Wu immediately shrunk, carefully put the account book on the table, like a rabbit, and escaped from the living room.


    Merton looked at the thick books in the room and immediately wanted to cry without tears. He could not imagine that he had such a wonderful life on the first day of graduation from the Imperial College.


    "Ah!"


    Merton roared wildly.


    With a sigh, fuber came in and looked at the messy account books everywhere in the whole living room. He couldn''t help but come forward and tidy up in silence.


    "You''re in such a hurry to put me in power," Murton sighed.


    All the people handed in the account books at the same time. Of course, Merton knew what they meant. After all, before that, Merton spent most of his time in the Imperial College and exercised the power of the Mojia village. When they saw that Merton had graduated from the Imperial College, they naturally wanted Merton to regain power.


    "The young master has graduated from the Imperial College. Naturally, he needs to know the current situation of Mohism, so as to make everyone feel at ease." fuber put a thick pile of account books in front of Merton.


    When Merton led a group of Mohist children into Chang''an City and led the rise of Mohist village, it can be said that Merton is the spiritual leader of Mohist village. Even if what Merton did is incredible, Mohist village has always been implemented to the letter and firmly believes that the young master will be successful.


    Now that Merton has graduated from the Imperial College and has no academic worries, the people of Mojia village naturally hope that their young master will lead them to recast their glory again.


    "I have a plan for Mojia village, and it will be known at the end of the year. Qin Huaiyu and I have made an appointment! Look at these account books another day." Merton ran out of Mojia without waiting for Fubo''s reaction.


    When Merton left, Xu Jie and others sneaked up in front of Fubo.


    "It''s not good for us to force the young master like this!" Xu Jie said with some guilt.


    "It''s impossible. Unfortunately, the master died early. In addition, the Mojia village was extremely poor at that time and didn''t set a marriage for the young master. Otherwise, if there was a mistress, the young master wouldn''t have to worry so much." Li Yi sighed.


    In fact, according to Merton''s title, it is not difficult to get engaged, but Merton is a descendant of the Mohist family, which is highly excluded, and those with equal status do not look up to the Mohist village. The Mojia village with small doors and households doesn''t look good, so it fell down.


    "I heard that the master and the royal highness of the long Princess..." ink three low voice.


    "Be careful! Don''t say it?" Uncle Yu immediately scolded. He often served Li Shimin in the fish champion building. Naturally, he knew how taboo the royal family was.


    Fuber nodded solemnly and said, "that''s why we beat around the bush. Otherwise, would it be so troublesome?"


    Everyone nodded deeply, looked at Merton''s far away figure, and immediately sighed in unison.


    The problem of being single in Mojia village has been solved almost. However, the life of his young master has become a difficult problem. Among the Marquis'' houses in Chang''an City, there is no one like Merton who has not been engaged yet!


    Unconsciously, Merton became the first golden turtle son-in-law in Chang''an City, commonly known as a bachelor.

 Chapter 398

    Fish champion building.


    Merton half covered his face and sneaked into the box.


    After graduating from the Imperial College, Merton''s reputation is booming in Chang''an City, especially in the familiar place of yuzhuangyuan building. If someone recognizes him, he can''t go if he wants to go.


    "Yo, our great talent is coming!" Merton heard Qin Huaiyu''s coaxing before turning around.


    Merton turned angrily and said, "you can''t stop your mouth when you are invited to dinner."


    "You''re a rich man. Who won''t you kill?" Kong huisuo laughed. "Besides, I must eat back the resentment lost in your hands today."


    This time, Kong huisuo was Merton''s strongest competitor, but he only got one of three subjects.


    "Yes, but I was defeated in your hands. This time I was convinced." Zu Mingjun got up and said,


    This year''s exam, Zu Mingjun got a grade in arithmetic, which was also a good result. Qin Huaiyu three people, not to mention, can take a top three dream can wake up with a smile.


    Merton said hello to his five brothers one by one, and then sat down.


    "Well, what''s it like not to go to school?" Merton asked with a smile.


    "Needless to say, I don''t have to be punished by the master anymore. I wake up naturally when I sleep. Don''t mention it?" Chumo said excitedly.


    "From then on, I will start my life as a dandy!" Qin Huaiyu howled.


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help laughing. In the past, although they had the ability of dandy, they were shy in their pockets. They couldn''t afford to waste money. Now with the dividend of the Food City, they were full of confidence.


    "Come and serve me wine? Don''t those inferior wines. Give me the best solution to my worries." Wei Chi Baolin also said with pride.


    "Solve thousands of worries? Always a bottle of solve thousands of worries that you can''t buy?" Zu Mingjun smacked his tongue.


    Kong huisuo glanced at Merton and said faintly, "you''re worried that you can''t drink good wine with brother Mo?"


    The bell on Merton''s desk, the fish two soon pushed the door in.


    "Young master, what can I do for you?" said the second fish. Usually, when the fish master is away, the fish champion building is handed over to the fish second. At present, his craft can be as good as that of the fish master.


    "Bring up the hot pot and take two more bottles to relieve thousands of worries." Merton said. Now they have graduated from the Imperial College, and drinking a little wine is no big deal.


    "More beef, please!" Chumo shouted.


    "Beef?"


    Zu Mingjun and Kong huisuoton''s eyes brightened when they saw that they had heard a lot about the beef, the top fish.


    Now, in the whole Chang''an City, only the fish champion family provides unlimited beef. The adult strong cattle from the prairie in Mojia village exclusively supply the old cattle in the whole Guanzhong area to the two markets of Chang''an City and Luoyang. This year, the people of Chang''an city can be said to have a good meal.


    "By the way, why are you so late today?" Qin Huaiyu suddenly asked.


    Merton said with a painful look on his face: "Hey, there are too many industries in Mojia village. After reading the account books all day, I really can''t go away."


    In an instant, the five people were suddenly hit by 10000 points. They couldn''t help looking at Merton with disdain. They had never heard that counting money was so painful.


    "If you dislike that most of the money is not enough, you can let the Mohist Food City pay more dividends to us. Two thousand Liang feels a little unproductive!" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    "Two thousand Liang!"


    Zu Mingjun and Kong huisuo looked at each other, but their hearts were bitter. I''m afraid they were the poorest among the people.


    "Yes! That''s OK, brother. Can you share some?" Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nodded again and again.


    Merton sneered and said, "it''s not enough. If it''s not enough, I''ll pay 10000 Liang each to buy you. If you want to kill a chicken and lay eggs, my younger brother can help you. It has doubled several times a year, and so is the most profitable business in Chang''an city.


    Qin Huaiyu quickly changed his face and flattered: "brothers are joking. How can there be less than two thousand liang? I think the brothers had only five hundred Liang in hand. How can it be too little!"


    Joke, the annual dividend of 2000 Liang can be 10000 Liang in five years. If 10000 Liang is paid, they will lose a lot if they are directly bought out by 10000 Liang. At least they are also the top three figures in the National Academy of mathematics. This small account will still be calculated.


    "What''s the allusion to killing a chicken to get an egg?" Kong huisuo said curiously.


    Morton glanced at Qin Huaiyu and said: "Mozi said in secret: it is said that an old woman owned an old hen. The old hen could lay a golden egg every day. The family was very rich. However, the old woman thought that the old hen could lay eggs, which showed that there were still many golden eggs in her stomach. So she was greedy and killed the hen. She wanted to take out all the golden eggs, but there was only one in her stomach The old woman regretted the golden egg, but it was too late? "


    "Killing a chicken to get an egg is really an incomparable image." Zu Mingjun sighed.


    "The significance of killing a chicken to get an egg is no less than fishing with all the water and drinking poison to quench thirst. Mozi really has great wisdom." Kong huisuo said with admiration. Although he is a descendant of the Kong family, he is still very devout in real knowledge. When he heard the story of killing a chicken to get an egg, he felt the truth in his heart.


    "Brother Mo, don''t worry. We are short-sighted. We will pay dividends all by brother Mo in the future. We have nothing to say. Besides, we can''t give up the delicious food!" Qin Huaiyu said loudly.


    Everyone immediately laughed together, and the spirit of eating goods was immortal.


    Soon, on the end of the charcoal stove, plates of beef rolls were placed in front of the people, and the smell of the delicious food immediately made people salivate.


    The exquisite antidote to thousands of worries was opened, and the aroma of wine overflowed in the room.


    Zu Mingjun raised his glass and toasted the crowd. "I''d like to propose a toast to you. After today, I''m afraid I''ll go back to Fan Yang''s hometown. It''s far away. I''m afraid it''s difficult to get together again in the future."


    "When the imperial college career is over, I''m afraid I''ll have to go back to my hometown in Qufu. You have the chance to see me again in the future." Kong huisuo also got up one after another.


    Qin Huaiyu three people immediately sighed. After the completion of the Imperial College, they knew that they must go their own way. They didn''t expect that this day would come so fast.


    "After the Chinese new year, I''m afraid the three of us will also enter the army. I''m afraid it will be even more difficult for the two to get together in the future." Qin Huaiyu also sighed.


    As a family of generals, it is an inevitable choice to join the army. In the future, whether it is guarding the border or fighting in a foreign country, I''m afraid the time to meet will be greatly reduced.


    Merton got up and said, "I''m afraid I''ll stay in the position of the Marquis and wait to die."


    Everyone smiled. I''m afraid only Merton was under the greatest pressure. The task of Mohist revival was on him alone. I''m afraid he couldn''t be idle.


    "The future is long. I hope where I will wait in the future and don''t forget today''s friendship!" Merton raised his glass.


    "Don''t forget today''s friendship."


    The crowd raised their glasses and drank them all at once.

 Chapter 399

    Yanxingmen


    Yanxing gate is the east gate of Chang''an city. The official road leading to Luoyang starts from Yanxing gate and reaches Luoyang for 800 miles. It is the gate with the largest flow of people in Chang''an city. Countless merchants and pedestrians come and go from here every day.


    Today''s Yanxing gate has changed greatly. The official roads covered with loess have disappeared and replaced by the newly paved brick roads outside the city gate.


    According to the news from the children of Mohism, the brick road leading to Chang''an and Luoyang has been constructed from Chang''an City and Luoyang respectively. The speed has been greatly accelerated. Now most of it has been completed. It is certain that the project can be completed before the end of the year.


    On the broad and flat side of the road, carriages leading to Luoyang are ready to go. The new year is approaching. When the official business is busy, it is very lively outside Yanxing gate,


    Next to one of the carriages, Merton and the four are seeing off Zu Mingjun and Kong huisuo. They will go to Luoyang together. After Luoyang breaks up, Zu Mingjun will return to Fan Yang''s hometown by boat from the canal, while Kong huisuo will go all the way East and return to Qufu, Shandong, along the official road, trying to get home before the year.


    "Take care, everyone!" Zu Mingjun said with a heavy heart.


    In this era, transportation is extremely inconvenient, the scope of people''s activities is very small, men are OK, and often go to other places to serve corvee. I''m afraid ordinary women have never been out of the county in their life, and there are many people who don''t even go out of the countryside.


    Many times, a farewell is many years, or even a farewell, which can''t help but make people boo and sigh.


    People naturally know that the possibility of reuniting is very low. Unless they come back to Chang''an City for an official, it will be difficult to see each other again. They can''t help but feel very heavy,


    Merton suddenly showed his face and said with a smile: "you don''t have to worry. When the brick road of the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty is built in the future, at that time, it will take only five days from the land of Shandong to Chang''an city. If you travel day and night, it will take about three days. It''s not difficult to get together in the future."


    "Yes!"


    People remembered that the construction of brick roads has been put on the agenda. Once the brick roads in Chang''an City and Luoyang are built, they are bound to be laid from Luoyang to the East again, and then radiate all roads in the country.


    With the perfect combination of brick road and four-wheel carriage, the traffic of the whole Datang will certainly have a huge leap. The long journey will no longer be bumpy and rain or wind. At that time, there will be no children leaving home and the boss will return. Even the words that parents are not traveling far will become history.


    "Well, I''ll wait for that day!" suddenly the people''s sorrow of separation dissipated a lot.


    "Everybody stay!" Kong huisuo stepped onto the carriage and arched his hand.


    "I''m sorry to see you off soon. Have a nice trip!" Merton said goodbye.


    It was not until the carriage went away that the four of Merton put away their melancholy and were about to go back.


    There was only a noise. At the end of the brick road, a long motorcade came face-to-face. Its specifications and pomp made people smack. The people on both sides avoided one after another and looked at the long motorcade pointing.


    "Who is this? Such a big show?" Chumo said discontentedly.


    People shook their heads and speculated.


    I saw that the people in the team were all short, dark, dressed in Ge clothes and extremely vigorous. At first glance, they were not Han people.


    "Southern barbarians?" a businessman suddenly exclaimed.


    "Nan man? Is such a big show the Feng family?" Qin Huaiyu suddenly said.


    "Feng family? Is it Feng ang, the leader of Nanman?" Merton said in his heart.


    Feng ang was actually a Han nationality. His ancestors married the local Nanyue female Xian and became the leader of Nanyue. Later, his grandparents and grandchildren managed Lingnan for three generations. Although he was a Han nationality, with the support of successive imperial courts, he sat firmly in the position of Lingnan chief. Although there was no Royal Baron, he was actually the king of Lingnan.


    In order to appease Lingnan, Li Shimin had to seal Feng ang as the Shangzhu state, which was a height that none of the feudal officials had reached.


    "Who''s coming!" the guard of Yanxing gate heard the news long ago and hurried forward to cross examine.


    "We are the Gaozhou manager and the subordinates of Duke Geng. This is our token!" the leader of the convoy was a strong man in black. He quickly took out the token and tested it for the city gate guard to verify.


    "Sure enough, it''s the Feng family in Lingnan!" Merton looked at each other. Feng ang guarded Lingnan and was granted the title of Gaozhou manager by the imperial court. Duke Geng was extremely honored.


    The city gate guard checked carefully and put down the alert after confirming that it was correct.


    "What is this?" the gate guard saw a long convoy, each full of goods, about to be checked routinely.


    "General Hui, this is the birthday gift from Duke Geng to the supreme emperor?" the strong man in black hurried.


    "The emperor''s birthday gift?"


    The city gate guard heard the speech and let it go.


    "The emperor''s birthday?" Merton asked in surprise as he watched the Feng family''s motorcade enter Chang''an city.


    "Don''t you know? This matter has already come from Chang''an City?" Chumo glanced.


    Merton shook his head. During this period, he has been preparing for the year-end year-old examination of the Imperial College. Where did he care about other things? He really didn''t pay attention to the birthday of the supreme emperor.


    "It is said that the emperor is getting old and his body is getting worse day by day. The emperor must take this opportunity to show filial piety and make a big show! The Feng family must come for this!" Qin Huaiyu said in a low voice.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded and said, "the supreme emperor is Feng Ang''s noble man."


    At the beginning, when Li Yuan unified the world, Feng ang occupied Lingnan. Li Yuan sent Li Jing to denounce Lingnan, but Li Yuan didn''t treat Feng ang badly and immediately granted him a high official.


    "Feng ang, Duke of the state of Geng, is indeed a figure who can stand firm in dangerous places such as Lingnan, but his son may not be." Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    "His son?" said Merton in surprise.


    "When Feng ang paid tribute to Chang''an for many years, the Manchu Dynasty said that Feng ang had turned against him. Only Wei Zheng spoke and sent envoys to appease Feng ang first. Feng ang immediately sent his eldest son Feng Zhidai to Chang''an to show the heart of the court." Qin Huaiyu explained.


    Chumo then said, "unfortunately, the tiger father and the dog son, Feng ang has been brave all his life, and Feng Zhidai is actually a weak scholar. He dances all day and recites poetry against each other, which has become a joke in Chang''an city."


    Merton suddenly realized that Feng Zhidai''s coming to Chang''an city was also a proton. It was a means of self-protection.


    After all, Lingnan road is high and far away, and the imperial court has very weak control over it. Before, the imperial court had no time to look south. When it could only reuse Feng angzhi, it was also wary of him. If Feng Zhidai showed wise and divine force, how could the imperial court rest assured?


    Merton dare not underestimate the Feng family. It is said that the craziest thing Li Bai did in future generations was to hold the imperial concubine for research and take off her boots, and the Lishi here is Gao Lishi, a trusted eunuch of Tang Xuanzong, who was officially the great grandson of Feng ang.


    However, these have nothing to do with the four of them. At present, the most important thing is the emperor''s birthday.

 Chapter 400

    Mo Fu.


    Fubo said solemnly, "young master, the supreme emperor''s birthday is actually held in Weiyang palace. I''m afraid all the dignitaries in Chang''an will go! Should the Mo mansion also prepare a generous gift!"


    Although Merton has no official position, after all, he is the Marquis of founding county. Such a big event naturally can''t fall behind.


    Merton shook his head and said, "gifts must be given at that time, but it''s too tacky to send property alone."


    Unfortunately, Merton had given Li Yuan the secret skill of hair dyeing as a gift, otherwise it would be very appropriate to use it on this occasion.


    Fubo frowned and said, "Mohist village has polished two more diamonds. If you don''t want this as a gift?"


    If the gifts are valuable, I''m afraid there is no diamond suitable for the whole Tang Dynasty. Once the diamonds in Mojia village are polished and delivered, it will cause a frenzy. In addition, the diamonds are made by Mojia village. If they are hidden, it will make people think that Mojia is stingy.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "diamonds are really suitable, but the emperor has already had them."


    I''m afraid many of the diamonds forged by the Mohist School for Li Shimin have fallen into Li Yuan''s hands.


    Forberton frowned. Giving gifts is an artistic activity. If the gifts are too rich and cause the dissatisfaction of other dignitaries, I''m afraid he will also be impeached by the censor.


    But if the gift is too casual, I''m afraid it''s not very good. The whole Tang Dynasty knows that Mojia village has been booming recently. If it''s stingy, I''m afraid the consequences will be more serious.


    Just when Merton couldn''t do anything, Tie''an suddenly came in and said, "young master, Uncle Zhang has come and said that the glass you want has been tested successfully."


    "Seriously?" Merton was overjoyed.


    "Uncle Zhang is waiting outside the door?" answered tie an.


    "Come on, please." Merton couldn''t wait.


    After a while, dressed in ordinary Mohist clothes, Lao Zhang walked into the Mohist house with a spring face. No one could imagine that such a simple old man was a craftsman pursuing superb craftsmanship in the Mohist village.


    "Young master, this is the glass that the young master wants!" Lao Zhang bowed and handed over four crystal clear wine cups as thin as cicada wings.


    Merton excitedly took over and touched this very common thing in future generations, and the thoughts of future generations immediately came to his mind.


    "Uncle Zhang has worked hard!" Merton said.


    "The young master has broken my heart. It''s just the flat glass that the young master wants. I can''t conquer it. I can only make some small items. I''m really ashamed." Lao Zhang said.


    Merton looked at the glass wine cup in his hand, nodded with satisfaction and said, "everything is difficult at the beginning. Let''s talk about flat glass in the future. Uncle Zhang can make a wine cup. It''s amazing."


    "If the young master didn''t get the formula of the far western country, who would have thought that some gravel could refine such a treasure of creation Zhong Shenxiu." Lao Zhang said modestly.


    "What, these treasures are made of gravel?" Fubo said in shock at the exquisite wine cup.


    Lao Zhang also showed a wry smile, definitely nodded and said, "it''s really made of gravel!"


    When he tried again and again according to the formula given by Merton, even he was shocked. Who could have thought that some stones and gravel could make such beautiful things by adding some common things.


    In fact, glass appeared in the world very early. Glass beads were unearthed in ancient Egypt as early as 4000 years ago. Phoenicians inadvertently invented glass with gravel and natural soda 3000 years ago. Even at the same time as the Tang Dynasty, the Romans have used glass in windows. In the Tang Dynasty, glass appeared in this magical land for the first time.


    In fact, refining glass is very simple. It''s like window paper. It breaks when you poke it. However, it''s hard to refine crystal clear glass. Lao Zhang finally refined colorless and transparent glass after repeated experiments and made it into a wine cup. Then he reported to Merton.


    "Such a magical thing is very suitable to be used as the birthday gift of the supreme emperor." faberton''s eyes brightened. It is cheap and unique. It can only be made by Mohism. It can not only make the supreme emperor happy, but also won''t be disgusted by other honours.


    "Although it''s precious, it''s not suitable?" Merton suddenly shook his head and denied.


    Fuber and Lao Zhang looked up in amazement and puzzled at Merton.


    Merton explained: "glass is something of great use. If it can only be made into wine cups, it is just a luxury. What''s the use if it is inconsistent with the Mohist concept?"


    Merton gently let go, and the glass in his hand fell to the ground instantly, breaking to the ground with a slap.


    "Ah!"


    Fauberton felt a pain when he fell. Merton lost countless money. I''m afraid that the powerful man didn''t value it as a treasure, and his young master threw it away without hesitation.


    In contrast, Lao Zhang''s head just moved in his heart and was indifferent. He made it himself. Naturally, he knew that it looked bright, but it was not worth a penny. It was just some stones and gravel.


    "That''s what the young master meant?" Fubo said heartily, looking at the broken glass under his feet.


    Merton smiled inexplicably at the corner of his mouth and said, "of course, we want to make these glasses play a greater role."


    To tell the truth, it seems that glass has been developed now. Merton is not ready to make glass on a large scale. On the one hand, the technology of glass is not mature at all. It can only make some wine glasses and bottles. Its value is limited and criticized.


    However, in future generations, with the development of glass technology, the added value of a kind of glass has greatly increased. Although it is only a small piece, it plays a great role in promoting the whole mankind. It can even be said that everyone in future generations can''t live without it.


    That''s glasses.


    Among all glass products, the price is the most expensive, certainly not the eyes, but the profit is the highest. Glasses are absolutely second to none, even in the face of those high-end glasses in future generations.


    Don''t you see, there are glasses shops all over the street, and they have survived for quite a long time. There are people wearing glasses all over the street, wearing them for a lifetime.


    Nowadays, the output of glass in Mojia village is extremely low, and there is no ability to make large pieces of glass. It is most appropriate to choose glasses, which is less material, high added value and beneficial to people.


    Merton had been in contact with the supreme Emperor Li Yuan. He found that Li Yuan, who was nearly 70 years old, was seriously degraded and even had serious presbyopia.


    This is also the reason why Li Shimin is no longer wary of Li Yuan, but wantonly arranges birthday gifts for Li Yuan and does his filial piety for him.


    So Merton abandoned the seemingly gorgeous glass wine cup. He had to give Li Yuan a birthday gift first. It will be a common reading glass for everyone in future generations.


    I believe this birthday gift will certainly satisfy Li Yuan and Li Shimin.

 Chapter 401

    In the backyard of Mo mansion.


    Merton has a laboratory. No one is allowed to go in on weekdays. Even the best Qin Huaiyu has not gone in.


    Usually, when he is free, Merton will be busy in this laboratory for a long time, including the most advanced experimental equipment of this era, and even a simple boiler, a raging fire.


    Now in the laboratory, among these equipment, Merton has lost all interest in looking at the past, because once the glass appears, all the utensils here have fallen behind.


    This is why Merton has always wanted to develop glass in Mojia village. Once glassware appears, many experiments of later generations can be restored again, and the development of Mojia must have a qualitative leap.


    Lao Zhang sat in the boiler and kept putting some quartz and glass materials into the boiler.


    Merton was holding a pencil next to him and kept drawing on a piece of rice paper, measuring cups, test tubes, beakers, alcohol lamps, iron racks, long necked bottles and so on. Soon, three-dimensional bottles appeared on the paper.


    Merton thought about it and drew all the equipment in the later experiments in his mind. After confirming that there was no omission, he handed the paper to Lao Zhang''s head.


    "Uncle Zhang, when you go back, make these artifacts as soon as possible and send them to the Mo mansion." Merton ordered.


    Lao Zhang looked at the paper, nodded silently, put the paper away and collected it.


    "By the way, make more copies and send them to xuandu temple." Merton couldn''t help but show a knowing smile. I believe these equipment Taoist waidan sect will be satisfied.


    "Good young master!"


    Lao zhangtou added some charcoal to the boiler, and the fire in the boiler suddenly flourished again.


    All day long, they were busy in the experiment. Only fuber brought them food and water on time.


    The next day, the fire finally went out. In front of Merton was more than a dozen pieces of irregular glass. Next to them, the discarded failed products were stacked high.


    "Young master, what do you think of these?" old Zhang''s head, red eyes and proud face looked at the uneven glass with palm size. Although he didn''t know the purpose of these glass, he believed that the young master must be very useful.


    Merton yawned, touched the familiar concave convex feeling, and nodded with satisfaction.


    "Young master, you''d better have some food and rest!" Fubo pushed the door in and saw the haggard two people distressed.


    Merton nodded, grabbed the food from fuber and ate it in a big gulp.


    After Merton finished eating in three bites, fuber was busy and ready to pack up and leave.


    "Fauber, wait a minute?" Merton had an idea and shouted to fauber.


    "Young master, what can I do for you?" Fubo stopped.


    "Fauber, do you often have blurred eyes and your eyesight is much worse than one?" Merton asked.


    Fuber nodded and said, "it''s normal to be old and dazed."


    When Merton heard the speech, he moved in his heart, sealed all the concave and convex glass in front of him with a piece of rice paper, dug a round hole in the middle of the rice paper, handed it to Fubo and said, "Fubo, look through the round hole and see if you can see it clearly?"


    Although fuber was confused, he still did as he said.


    "Eh!" as soon as fuber handed the round hole to his eyes, he was startled by the clear scene.


    "How is that possible?" fuber said in shock. He has been used to the hazy sight, and when items clearly appear in front of him, it seems that he has returned to his prime of life.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is the most important use of glass."


    "Young master, you are wise. This is the blessing of the old people in the world!" Fu Bo and Lao Zhang admired him. They can let the old people see clearly from now on. Such a treasure is much more useful than a wine cup that can only drink.


    No wonder the young master broke the wine cup directly. Now Fubo doesn''t feel bad at all. In his opinion, only such glasses that benefit people are probably worthy of the concept of Mohism.


    "Could it be that this is a birthday gift for the emperor?" asked fuber.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is not the birthday gift of the emperor, but the birthday gift of the old people all over the world. In the future, all the glass in Mojia village will produce glasses. From then on, the old people all over the world will no longer have to worry about old eyes and inconvenient movement."


    "I know!" Lao Zhang nodded.


    Merton has unreservedly taught him the process of producing presbyopic glasses. After he returns to Mojia village in the future, he will be able to produce them on a large scale.


    Fuber looked at the lens in his hand and couldn''t put it down, but he felt very inconvenient: "isn''t it inconvenient to hold the glass like this!"


    Fuber was restless. If he could hold a piece of glass in his hand all the time, I''m afraid it would be very inconvenient to work. In addition, the glass was fragile. Once it was damaged, he would be distressed for a long time.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course not. It''s just for people to see. You just need to intercept it, which is slightly larger than your eyes, make it into an iron frame and hang it on the bridge of your nose and ears. In this way, it not only reduces the weight, but also does not affect the normal life. It''s very convenient."


    Fuber was delighted when he heard the speech. Who doesn''t want to have clear eyes and convenient action.


    Lao Zhang shook his head regretfully and said, "young master, this method is good, but it doesn''t work. Once the glass is brittle, it can''t be cut at all. When Lao Fu was in Mojia village, he once thought of cutting the glass, but he can''t cut it with a knife or other tools. Once he makes too much force, the glass will be crushed."


    Merton shook his head and said softly with a smile, "glass is true, but that''s because you haven''t found a really suitable tool for cutting.


    "Cutting tools?" Lao Zhang looked at Merton puzzled. He is the most skilled craftsman in Mojia village. Is there any cutting tool he hasn''t used in the world?


    Merton laughed and said, "what is this? Even if the diamond is so hard, there is a way to cut, not to mention glass."


    "Do you use the method of cutting diamonds?" Lao Zhang''s head moved in his heart.


    However, the value of diamonds and glass can not be compared. If so, I''m afraid the cost of cutting glass will be high.


    Merton smiled mysteriously and took out a long cutting knife from the laboratory. However, the top of the re cutting knife is not a sharp blade, but inlaid with a small diamond.


    Merton took a cutting knife and scratched scratches on the unfinished presbyopic mirror lens. With a gentle break with his hand, the glass was easily broken along the scratch. Soon an oval lens had been completed.


    Lao Zhang looked up at the sky and sighed. Who would have thought that the hardest diamond in the world could be used to cut glass.


    The rest of the work has been well completed. With Lao Zhang''s superb technology, oval lenses are built one by one, and then assembled on the already built eye frame.


    Soon, two reading glasses were placed in front of Merton.


    "One for Fubo, and the rest for the emperor as a birthday gift." Merton waved his big hand.


    Fu Bo trembled in his heart and said, "I''m a civilian. How can he use the same thing with the supreme emperor? It''s a great treason."


    Merton took a pair of old flower glasses and said, "this is the thing of my Mohist school. Is there any reason why you don''t have to be dedicated to others?"


    Merton''s belief has always been to lead the Mojia village to prosperity. In his heart, Fubo''s position is the same as his relatives. How can Fubo be wronged.


    "Besides, Uncle Zhang will make it continuously. At that time, these are just ordinary things.


    When Fu Bo heard the speech, he was relieved to accept it. He touched his tears and said, "I''ll put it away first. I''ll wear it when the emperor''s birthday passes in the future."


    Merton saw that he was no longer reluctant, but focused on another reading glasses, took out a sandalwood box and wrapped the reading glasses beautifully.


    So far, the emperor''s birthday gift is ready.

 Chapter 402

    Weiyang Palace


    "The book of songs Xiaoya": "how is the night? The night is not in the middle."


    This is the origin of Weiyang palace. Since the Han Dynasty, Weiyang palace has been the center of Royal activities. Many historical events have taken place here.


    In particular, the beheading of Han Xin in Weiyang palace added a bit of mystery to the palace out of thin air.


    Today''s Weiyang palace is even more lively. The supreme emperor''s birthday is held here. He bought wine and dignitaries in the court. Just to solve thousands of worries, he pulled 500 pieces from the wine cellar in Mojia village.


    "Mo boy, you''re not sincere!" Merton was stopped by Cheng Yaojin and asked as soon as he arrived at the gate of Weiyang palace.


    Merton said innocently, "Uncle Cheng, why did you say that? I haven''t deceived you."


    "This solution to thousands of worries is often out of stock in Chang''an city. I can''t buy it when I want to drink. They all say that Mojia village has little supply. It''s your boy who hid it." Cheng Yaojin scolded on his face.


    Merton smiled and said, "Uncle Cheng wants to drink. My nephew will come to the door and send you a car someday, so uncle Cheng can''t finish drinking every day!"


    Cheng Yaojin pretended to have a straight face and said, "I can''t afford to drink. Your boy looks harmless to people and animals. In fact, he is black hearted. I can''t afford to sell a bottle of wine for money."


    Merton''s face drooped when he heard the speech. The old man didn''t want to face up. He was invincible in the world. He wanted to drink and didn''t want to owe a favor.


    "This is the cost price of the wine in Mojia village!" Merton said with a black face.


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly smiled and said, "well, I just know I didn''t read you wrong, or your boy has filial piety, which is much better than that Lengtou Qing in my family."


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help saying that he took Merton into Weiyang palace.


    "Duke Cheng and Duke Mo are here!" with the eunuch''s report, Wen and Wu in Weiyang palace suddenly calmed down and looked at them involuntarily.


    Cheng Yaojin''s face immediately showed pride. He stepped into the palace and took only a few steps. However, he found that everyone turned a blind eye to him and focused on Merton behind him.


    After all, recently, Merton has really been in the limelight in Chang''an city. With the graduation of one of the six subjects of the Imperial College and the amazing masterpiece of Chang''an City, the name of the Mohist school is like thunder.


    But Merton spent most of his time in the Imperial College. It was rare for people to see him. Seeing Merton coming today, they all attracted people''s onlookers.


    "Oh! But the boy Merton came and asked him to come to the audience." Li Yuan, the Lord, couldn''t help looking at the news.


    He was very impressed by Merton. Last time, Merton followed Li Chengqian and Princess Changle and presented his secret hair dyeing skills, which was very much to his heart.


    Moreover, he knew that more than one month later, the secret skills of Taoist hair dyeing began to be sold in Chang''an city. It can be seen that Merton presented the first one, which made Li Yuan very satisfied. After all, he had not felt the feeling of enjoying the world for a long time since he retired from the throne.


    "Lord Mo, summoned by the emperor!"


    A eunuch from Weiyang palace came up to Merton and said. As for Cheng Yaojin, Li Yuan didn''t even ask. For these fierce generals who forced the palace to rebel, Li Yuan has reached this age and has no worries. Although he doesn''t embarrass them, he won''t give them a good face.


    I didn''t see Yuchi Jingde, who had invaded the Tai Chi hall and directly threatened Li Yuan to abdicate, sitting in the corner without saying a word and acting as a wooden man.


    Cheng Yaojin tactfully touched his nose and consciously sat next to Yuchi Jingde. He also made a statue.


    When Merton followed the eunuch to Li Yuan, Li Chengqian and the princes just presented birthday gifts to Li Yuan. Li Yuan looked at the gifts made by the princes and couldn''t close his mouth. Li Shimin smiled and agreed.


    "See the emperor!" Merton bowed.


    "Come on, everyone come and see my great Tang youth!" Li Yuan pointed to Merton and laughed. Merton''s "young Tang theory" is famous in Chang''an city. Li Yuan naturally read it, and he was very happy to see Merton come.


    "He''s really a good man!" a blunt mandarin of the Tang Dynasty echoed. When Merton Yu Guang looked, he saw a man with a big figure, a beard and a pair of Turkic clothes.


    Merton''s heart moved. Could it be that this person was Jieli Khan.


    Jieli Khan is only in his fifties, but his face is full of vicissitudes and looks withered. His spirit is nearly 70 years in a row, not even Li Yuan with black hair.


    "Not worthy of the Admiral''s praise," Murton bowed.


    After Jieli Khan was captured by Li Shimin to Chang''an City, he was granted the title of right back general by Li Shimin. Of course, there was only a virtual position without real power. It was not wrong for Merton to call him a general.


    Merton suddenly found a sight staring at himself. He turned his head and saw that on Li Yuan''s right, a 30-year-old official dressed like the Nanman he saw at the east gate was looking at him. It must be Feng Zhidai, the nephew of Lingnan Wang Feng ang.


    Merton smiled at him, but Feng Zhidai showed a strange smile.


    Merton was surprised. He didn''t have time to think carefully, but he saw Jieli Khan get up and salute Li Yuan and say, "on the birthday of the supreme emperor, Jieli lives in Chang''an and has nothing. Only this gold knife is always with him. Today, he specially presented it to celebrate the birthday of the supreme emperor."


    Jieli Khan looked humble and respectful. Only the eunuch immediately presented a brocade box to Li Yuan. The gold knife is strictly prohibited. Jieli Khan naturally could not take it to the hall and had long been handed over to the eunuch.


    When Li Yuan saw his former opponent, he bowed down to himself. He was in a great mood. He took the brocade box and opened it. He saw a glittering short knife lying in the brocade box. It is said that at this time, Jieli Khan''s favorite thing was not confiscated after it was brought to Chang''an city because it was short. I''m afraid it was the last thing for Jieli Khan to recall his glory. Unexpectedly, he was willing to give it.


    "The general has a heart!" Li Yuan laughed and played for a while. He felt dull and handed it to the eunuch to keep it.


    Jericho hunton lowered his head.


    Merton glanced at Li Shimin vaguely. Li Shimin thought that this must be Li Shimin''s means to please Li Yuan.


    "I also have a birthday gift for the supreme emperor!" Feng Zhidai stood up and said.


    "Oh!" Li Yuan was so excited that he couldn''t help looking at Feng Zhidai. Li Yuan knew that Feng ang had offered many treasures in the South China Sea before.


    "What the minister wants to offer is not gold and silver, but seeds!" Feng Zhidai glanced at Merton and said proudly.


    "Seed?" Li Yuan wondered.


    "What Weichen wants to offer is rice that is three times ripe a year in the country of Johor!"


    When Feng Zhidai said this, everyone was suddenly surprised and kept switching between Merton and Feng Zhidai.


    Li Shimin gave a meal in his hand and looked at Feng Zhidai with sharp eyes.


    At that time, at the western regions Congress, Merton waved the soil like gold and lured Johor businessmen with heavy profits to tell them about the excellent rice varieties that were three times ripe in Johor another year. However, the authenticity of this was unknown, and everyone was skeptical.


    But everyone knows that if this is true, it must be a great achievement.


    But no one thought that this kind of rice was true and was cut off by the Feng family in Lingnan.

 Chapter 403

    Everyone knows how important rice is for Datang. Datang has a large population and a food crisis has always existed. Especially in this era, natural disasters are frequent and people are hungry.


    Especially in the north, if it were not for the opening of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal and the transportation of rice from south to north, it would slightly alleviate the food crisis in the north, but no one would dislike more food.


    Any dynasty also knows the importance of food. As long as there is food, the people can''t get hungry, the rule of the imperial dynasty will be extremely stable. The demise of any dynasty in previous dynasties doesn''t make the people unable to live, so they rise up and rebel.


    Having such a good seed can at least ensure that the food of the Tang Dynasty will be safe for a hundred years. It can be said that everyone is excited by such great contributions. However, Merton took the lead and everyone can only envy it. Today, however, he killed a truncated beard.


    "Isn''t this the kind of rice that the western regions Congress and the Mohist Tzu said?" the officials in the hall talked one after another, pointing to a bag of rice seeds carried up by the eunuch. Even Su Lingnong had been impatient to rush forward and check it himself.


    On that day, at the western regions conference, Merton was lured by heavy money, and Johor businessmen were greedy for property. It was revealed that Johor had three crops of rice a year. At that time, it spread all over Chang''an City, and everyone heard about it.


    "Yes, this is what the Johor businessmen at the western regions conference said about the three crops of Johor rice a year." Feng Zhidai said proudly. He only said that it was the Johor businessmen who gave it and deliberately played down the role of Merton.


    "Three crops of rice a year are real. If it can be popularized, I''m afraid it will be a blessing of the Tang Dynasty!" the ministers exclaimed, and their eyes looked at Feng Zhidai with a little more fun.


    This is what Merton first lured Johor businessmen to say at the western region grand meeting, but now it is presented by Feng Zhidai. I''m afraid it''s thought-provoking! "


    Feng Zhidai couldn''t help smiling proudly. When the events of the western regions conference came to his ears that day, he suddenly became excited. Others were skeptical about this rice. However, he lived in Lingnan road for five generations. Naturally, he knew that the more south the rice went, the faster it matured. This year''s three crops of rice are likely to be true.


    Johor is a country in the South China Sea, and Lingnan road is the southernmost tip of the Tang Dynasty. His position in the Feng family was awkward. On the one hand, he was reused by the imperial court to control Lingnan. On the other hand, he was guarded by the imperial court. As the eldest son of the Feng family, staying in Chang''an City as a proton is the best proof.


    If you can get this fine rice seed yourself, you will certainly be able to make great achievements, show loyalty to the emperor, and even let him return to Lingnan.


    Although he enjoys glory and wealth in Chang''an, he must live in a foreign land. He can''t call the wind and rain in Lingnan road and come happily.


    So he wrote a letter in person and hurried to Lingnan road to persuade Feng ang to retrieve Johor rice from Johor as soon as possible.


    As soon as Feng ang heard this, he readily agreed. If it is true, his Feng family will surely make great contributions! If this matter is false, they have no loss. At most, they make a trip in vain, with small risk and large return.


    His Feng family does not lack wealth and status. What he lacks is the opportunity to vote loyalty to the imperial court. At the moment, a great opportunity is in front of him. How can he not seize it firmly.


    Moreover, there are many sea merchants in Lingnan. When he sent a caravan to Johor, he found out that there are three crops of rice a year.


    He was overjoyed at the moment. After he was transported back to Lingnan, he rushed to Chang''an City and presented it to the imperial court on Li Yuan''s birthday.


    As for Merton, in their view, he is just a yellow haired child, which is related to the interests of several generations of his family. He will not hesitate to offend the Mohists. After all, he is a duke, and Merton is just a marquis.


    "Interests move people!"


    The dignitaries of the Manchu Dynasty immediately sighed, but they understood that in the face of such great credit, who can control it? Even some people lament in their hearts, why didn''t they think of it earlier? But Feng ang, an old fox, robbed the credit in advance.


    "As far as we know, Johor rice was lured by Merton with a lot of money. The Johor businessman said that it''s not good for the Feng family to be greedy for work!" Cheng Yaojin suddenly shouted at the seat.


    Li Shimin immediately looked at Feng Zhidai with his eyes. Feng Zhidai panicked. He immediately knew that if he lied, the emperor would not like him. He nodded calmly: "Yes, this Johor rice was first discovered by Lord Mo, but Wei Chen knew how important this rice was to the Tang Dynasty. If there were this rice, the people of the Tang Dynasty would never be hungry again. How could such an important thing be borrowed from the hands of mercenary businessmen."


    Feng Zhidai stealthily changed his concept. Although he acknowledged Merton''s first achievement, he deliberately picked a bone in Merton''s eggs, picked out Merton''s mistakes, thought that Merton wasted the opportunity and put gold on his face.


    As soon as Feng Zhidai said this, many ministers immediately nodded. In this era, the status of businessmen is underground and the reputation is not good. Rice seeds so important to the Tang Dynasty were decided in the hands of businessmen, which immediately biased Feng Zhidai in the hearts of the people.


    "Wei Chen was worried and tossed about, so he asked him to write to his father and ask him to exchange this improved rice from Johor for the first time and immediately send it to Chang''an City as a birthday gift to the supreme emperor." Feng Zhi Dai Zhenzhen said.


    "This is the best gift I have received."


    Li Yuan immediately laughed. These things that can stabilize the Tang Dynasty as birthday gifts really satisfied Li Yuan.


    "How do you confirm that three seasons of rice a year are true? Aren''t you afraid to run empty?" Li Shimin narrowed his eyes.


    Feng Zhidai said proudly, "as long as it is useful to Datang, even if there is a chance, our father and son will go through fire and water and die."


    Everyone sighed in their hearts. This time, the Feng family really picked up a big bargain. With such credit, as long as it is confirmed that there is no mistake in the coming year, the Feng family will be able to be simple in the heart of the emperor. As long as the rice is here, the Feng family will benefit infinitely.


    Merton immediately sneered in his heart. No matter what Feng Zhidai said, he couldn''t cover up the fact that he robbed the merit. What he really cares about is not the credit of Johor rice, but that after the Feng family obtained rice, they didn''t send a note to him in an attempt to swallow the credit alone.


    At this time, he remembered that there might be Johor rice in the motorcade entering Chang''an city a few days ago. For two days, Feng Zhidai didn''t inform the Mohists. It can be seen that Feng Zhidai''s ambition to swallow credit alone has long been set.


    "Lord Mo, don''t blame me. I''ve taken over the task. If this rice appeared in the Tang Dynasty one day earlier, I''ll benefit the Tang Dynasty one day earlier." Feng Zhidai turned around and bowed his hands to Merton and said meaningfully: "I''m also dedicated to my country."


    In offering rice, it seems that Merton just moved his mouth and didn''t even spend fifty liang of gold. However, the Feng family went to the ocean to get Johor rice and took a big bite on this great merit.


    "Feng Aiqing is really loyal to the imperial court."


    Li Shimin nodded secretly in his heart and did not object to the courtiers competing for merit. Although the Feng family was suspected of competing for merit, it was the benefit of the Tang Dynasty in the end.


    Merton smiled and said naturally, "Lord Feng is joking. This Johor rice is not unique to my Mohist family. What is the qualification of Mo to blame adults."


    Feng Zhi showed a proud smile when Dayton. In his opinion, Lingnan is closest to Johor. The Johor rice should have been the credit of the Feng family. He was just robbed of the opportunity by the Mohist school. Now it is just that the Feng family takes back his due credit.


    He deliberately offered it on the emperor''s birthday. Even if Merton was not satisfied, he didn''t dare to make trouble at the emperor''s birthday banquet. After today, the credit of the Feng family was certain.


    Many courtiers immediately sighed that mojiazi was still young after all. If he got the news and went to Johor to get this rice seed, he would certainly be able to take the credit for himself. However, he wanted to enjoy his success and let the Johor merchant bring it himself. Who was to blame for being robbed of the credit?


    Merton turned his words and said sarcastically: "However, Mo once said in the western regions Congress that whoever can bring improved seeds to the Tang Dynasty will be rewarded. This was first proposed by the Johor businessman. The Feng family was transported back by Johor and should share the fifty Liang gold equally between the two families. After the supreme emperor''s birthday, he also invited Lord Feng to go to the Mojia village. Twenty-five Liang gold will be given to the Feng family, which will not make the Feng family work in vain.


    "Twenty two taels of gold!" the man Dynasty was stunned and couldn''t help laughing.


    Merton''s move was so insidious that all the efforts of the Feng family immediately became a farce. When the Feng family went to Chongyang, how could they ask for 25 liang of gold.


    Twenty five Liang gold seems a lot to ordinary people, but for the Feng family, who controls the land of Lingnan, it''s just a drop in the bucket. How can you put it in the eyes!


    "The Feng family is dedicated to the country. How can you measure the Mohists with these blocking things?" Feng Zhidai said angrily. When they went to the great ocean, they asked for great contributions. Even if they couldn''t do all the work, they would take more than half of the credit. How can they let the Mohists use a little gold.


    "Well, I admire Lord Feng and other loyal people most." Merton suddenly shouted.


    The people in the palace looked at Merton in surprise. They didn''t understand that Merton was so excited after being robbed of his credit. Shouldn''t they be confused!


    Merton nodded proudly: "The Feng family is so loyal and hardworking for the Tang Dynasty. It''s really lucky for the Tang Dynasty. At present, there is a fruit tree in Persia and other places, which is apple. It''s delicious. Once it is introduced, it will certainly benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty. The pyramid country has excellent medical skills. If the Feng family can get it back, there will be countless people living in the Tang Dynasty: there is a chrysanthemum in the Far West, which can repel mosquitoes and insects. If the Feng family can get it, the people all over the world will come back in summer We are not afraid of mosquito bites, and typhoid fever will be greatly reduced. "


    "Persia in the western regions, the pyramid country, the far west country..." Feng Zhi Dayton opened his mouth. His original intention was to get great credit for the Feng family, but he didn''t expect to go to the far west country.


    "I haven''t been to these places!" Feng zhidayton cried. It''s almost ten thousand miles away in such a distant place. If you go there, you will die a narrow life, no, a ten life.


    Merton smiled coldly and said, "didn''t the Feng family say that if there was a glimmer of possibility, they would go through fire and water and die?"


    "Er!" Feng Zhi immediately concluded.


    "These should have been brought by merchants from the western regions. Didn''t lord Feng say that they can''t be handed over to mercenary businessmen?" Merton asked.


    Feng Zhi blushed as Dayton.


    Seeing this, Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "the far western country is too far away. Let the merchants of the western regions bring it. If it is useful, I Tang will certainly be generous."


    Merton sighed: "the emperor doesn''t know. It must have been possible before, but it doesn''t work now. You don''t hear about Zi Gong redeeming people."


    "Zi Gong redeems people." Feng Zhi Dayton turned pale. He loved Confucianism and naturally knew about Zi Gong redeems people.


    "It is said that there is a law in the state of Lu. After the merchants redeem the people who have become slaves in other countries, they can go to the State Treasury to reimburse the ransom. Zi Gong, a disciple of Confucius (Duan muchI) After redeeming a Lu national abroad, he refused to accept state compensation when he returned home. Confucius said after knowing that Zigong did wrong. From now on, Lu people will not redeem slaves from other countries. Receiving compensation from the state will not damage your character; but without compensation, no one in Lu will redeem their dead compatriots¡°


    Zilu rescued a drowning man. The man thanked him for giving him a cow, and Zilu accepted it. Confucius said happily, "the people of the state of Lu will have the courage to save the drowning people from now on." a great Confucian immediately recounted the redemption of Zigong.


    Suddenly, everyone looked at Merton and Feng Zhidai differently. This time, Feng Zhidai made a Zigong and Merton made a Zilu.


    Merton attracts foreign businessmen with a lot of money and brings all kinds of useful seeds to Datang. It seems that it is a long way and extremely slow, but it is endless due to the attraction of heavy profits.


    Feng Zhidai went directly to Johor to get seeds. It seems that he is bent on the Tang Dynasty, but he cut off the way for the Tang Dynasty to introduce foreign seeds. If foreign businessmen can''t get benefits, how can they be willing to bring seeds to the Tang Dynasty.


    At the moment, the eyes of people looking at Merton were suddenly different. They sighed in their hearts that mojiazi was worthy of being mojiazi. Being able to endure the temptation of such credit, everyone was limited to the present, and mojiazi could see so long.


    If there were no Feng family, Datang would still be able to get good Johor rice, and would harvest more. The Feng family just brought this time a little earlier.


    Li Yuan was a little disappointed when he looked at Feng Zhidai. Although he had abdicated, he was also worried about the future of Datang. After all, it was his country.


    "There was a way to save people in ancient times, but now Merton bought seeds. Well, it''s worthy of being a young man in the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yuan praised Merton. Merton''s move really impressed everyone. Who could have thought that Merton was like a long-term plan.


    "I''m loyal to my country. Please see to it that the emperor and the supreme emperor." Feng Zhidai said in fear.


    Moreover, Li Shimin suddenly remembered that although cotton, which is equally important to the Tang Dynasty, is much simpler in the country of Gaochang than crossing the ocean, Merton still didn''t save money and bought cotton seeds from Gaochang merchants. In this way, they made a high judgment!


    "What you have done, although you have different starting points, is all for the consideration of the Tang Dynasty. I am very relieved. The imperial court will appreciate your loyalty. Today''s supreme emperor''s birthday, no matter what else." Li Shimin said.


    After all, on the bright side, the Tang Dynasty still benefits, and Feng ang guards Lingnan. The imperial court relies on him a lot. Naturally, it''s not easy to punish him, so we can only make things right.


    However, everyone knows that the great credit the Feng family wants has long been wasted, and now it is estimated that there is only the hard work of crossing the ocean.

 Chapter 404

    "The climate of Lingnan road is similar to that of Johor. The Feng family is willing to try planting Johor rice for the imperial court in Lingnan, so as to promote the whole Tang Dynasty!"


    Feng Zhidai''s heart is bitter. Since all the hard work is left, in that case, the Feng family will do the hard work to the end.


    Merton did not refute this. Lingnan road has four seasons like summer, high temperature and rainy. It is indeed the best choice to try to grow Johor rice.


    Su Lingnong, a big farmer, nodded when he heard the speech and put down his rice seed. "Lingnan is indeed the best choice, but this rice must be popularized throughout the south of the Yangtze River in the future. It is better to try planting in many places at the same time, such as Huguang, Suzhou and Hangzhou. In this way, more places can be used as a reference and experience can be left for future promotion."


    "Big Si Nong''s words are reasonable. Let''s do it according to your words." Li Shimin nodded.


    Feng Zhidai suddenly turned black. If he tried to plant rice at the same time in all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, the only hard work of the Feng family would be divided by many people. In this way, even if the rice seed test was successful in the future, his credit to the Feng family would be diluted to the extreme.


    Throughout the Weiyang palace, all the ministers were in a state of mind. They saw a wonderful play today, from the Feng family to Merton''s counterattack.


    The Feng family''s move was not without harvest, but it was far less than expected, and it was not known whether it was worth offending the rising ink family.


    It is conceivable that Feng Zhidai''s heart was oppressed. Seeing Merton, he suddenly had an idea and said in a bad tone: "today is the birthday gift of the supreme emperor. I don''t know what gift Lord Mo is going to prepare, which will also open our eyes?"


    Li Yuan and Li Shimin immediately frowned. They looked at Feng Zhidai badly and were unhappy.


    Merton smiled and said, "Weichen does have a gift to celebrate the emperor''s birthday."


    Feng Zhi''s face stiffened as Dayton.


    "Oh!"


    Li yuanton is in fashion for big hair. He is very satisfied with the secret skill of hair dyeing given by Merton before. He is very satisfied with Merton''s gift.


    Merton took out a palm sized brocade box from his arms and presented it to Feng Zhidai. When Feng Zhidai saw it, he sneered. Even if the brocade box was worth thousands of gold, it could not compare with the treasure donated by the Feng family.


    Li Yuan didn''t care. He took it and opened the brocade box directly. In the brocade box, there was a strange transparent object. It was Merton who wasted so much effort to make reading glasses.


    "Is this Shuiyu?"


    Li Yuan was surprised when he saw the transparent lens of reading glasses. He saw countless precious jade in his life, but such transparent jade was the first time I saw it. It felt cold and far less comfortable than warm jade.


    "Back to the supreme emperor, this is the latest product of Mohism, called glass, not jade," Merton explained.


    Feng Zhidai felt cold when he heard that it was not jade. In that case, it must not be valuable.


    "What''s the use of this thing?" Li Yuan looked at the reading glasses in his hand, wondering how to use such a strange thing.


    Li Shimin thought that as long as it was newly developed by the Mohist school, it must have strange uses, and it could make Merton present it to Li Yuan as a birthday gift. It must be extraordinary, and he couldn''t help looking forward to it.


    "The emperor put it in front of his eyes and you can see it at a glance." Merton sold the pass and handed over the latest issue of Ink magazine.


    "Eh!" Li Yuan looked down and immediately exclaimed that he was born.


    He acted according to his words and put his eyes on the bridge of his nose without a teacher. However, he found that the original fuzzy font on the original ink journal was extremely clear.


    "What''s wrong with the supreme emperor!" the man Dynasty suddenly exclaimed.


    Li Yuan shook his head and said with a shocked face, "I''m usually very old-fashioned. It''s very difficult to read ink magazines, and it''s extremely clear to wear this."


    Since he was old, he has been full of presbyopia. Who would have thought that when he was nearly 70, he could read like a teenager without obstacles.


    "What? This can cure presbyopia?" in Weiyang palace, all the officials were shocked when they heard the speech. It is well known that Li Yuan has presbyopia., Seeing Merton, his eyes suddenly became hot. I''m afraid most of them have known their destiny for 50 years. Gao Shilian and Xiao Yu, the older ones, are nearly 60 years old. It can be said that old eyesight is extremely common. It is very difficult to review political affairs at ordinary times. I''m afraid everything will be solved with the help of these reading glasses.


    Merton nodded and said, "this thing is called presbyopia glasses. It is specially used to treat presbyopia of the elderly, which can restore the eyesight of the elderly to that of a teenager. The last time I saw the emperor, I loved reading ink magazines, but I was troubled by presbyopia, so I specially made this presbyopia glasses to solve the problem of the emperor."


    "OK, OK! In the past ten years, I''ve been a big general with dim eyesight. It''s very inconvenient on weekdays. I didn''t expect to solve it today." Li Yuan said excitedly. Among all the birthday gifts, I''m afraid Merton is the most satisfactory one.


    Feng Zhidai''s face stiffened when he heard the speech. Who could have thought that Merton should have such a strange thing and find a way to please the emperor.


    Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan, who was directly wearing reading glasses and couldn''t put it down. He looked at Merton with satisfaction. Merton was more gratified than he gave him a gift.


    "So Mohism has solved the cause of presbyopia?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.


    Merton nodded and said, "in fact, presbyopia is not a disease, but a symptom that people''s eyes will inevitably appear with the increase of age."


    "It''s bound to happen?" Li Shimin immediately frowned. So, one day, he will also have presbyopia and use this presbyopia glasses.


    "Yes, sooner or later, it will appear sooner or later. I don''t know if your majesty still remembers that at the beginning of the year, Weichen showed the secret art of Mohism at the Mohist secret technology exhibition, small hole imaging." Merton said in a deep voice.


    "Pinhole imaging?" Li Shimin suddenly had an idea and said, "is Mozi''s pinhole imaging like human eyes?"


    Small hole imaging can reflect the external image into the small hole, just as people''s eyes can see the external image.


    "No, pinhole imaging is an inverted image, and what human eyes see is an upright image." Li Yuan shook his head and said. He is very bored recently, but Mohist ink skills are very interesting, which is very to his appetite. He knows Mohist secret skills almost like the back of his hand.


    Merton shook his head and said, "although the truth is the same, people''s eyes are a step more complex than small hole imaging. When small hole imaging, the round hole is a plane, while our eyes are convex."


    As soon as they heard this, they couldn''t help touching their eyes. It was really convex.


    "So on the basis of small hole imaging, the boy makes further eyes on this phenomenon, making the mirror into a convex surface, as if there were another pair of eyes outside the eyes, so as to help the elderly restore their eyesight," Merton explained.


    Suddenly, the people couldn''t help but praise themselves. I''m afraid only Mohists can do this secret skill. Who knows the mystery of light and shadow better than Mohists.


    Li Shimin also sighed. Who would have thought that the seemingly useless small hole imaging in the secret technique of Mohism promoted the birth of reading glasses and solved the problem of the elderly all over the world.


    "Can you mass produce this thing?" Li Shimin asked. You know, Li Yuan is not the only one suffering from presbyopia.


    In an instant, Merton became the focus of the audience. You know, many important officials in the hall are old.


    Merton nodded and said, "this glass is not the first of Mohism. It must have a history of thousands of years in the far western country. After Wei Chen bought the remnant secret arts from merchants in the western regions and made many improvements, it was cracked."


    Merton finished, deliberately glanced at Feng Zhidai, and immediately let Feng Zhidai sit and stand uneasy.


    Merchants from the western regions brought a steady stream of secrets and seeds from the Silk Road, which were not available in the Tang Dynasty. It is self-evident that they contributed to nature. The glass in front of them is the best example.


    "Although the output is not high, it is enough to meet the demand for reading glasses," Merton said with a confident smile.


    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty immediately showed a satisfied look. As long as they were not the only pair of eyes in the world, they were naturally indispensable.


    "Over time, the output of Mojia village will increase. It must be like an ordinary thing, and the old people all over the world have a pair of hands." Merton said proudly again.


    "OK! It seems that this is not a birthday gift for me, but a common birthday gift for the old people all over the world. I''m ashamed to accept this filial piety for the old people all over the world." Li Yuan said proudly.


    The Tang Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, and both Confucianism and Mohism attached great importance to filial piety. Li Yuan''s evaluation was extremely honored, but everyone had no objection. After all, Merton''s evaluation was only Feng Zhidai''s unwilling low head.


    The result is obvious. Among all the birthday gifts, Merton''s reading glasses are the best and most popular with Li Yuan. For the Royal afterlife, how can those gold, silver, jewelry, rare and foreign objects be put in the eyes.


    The Feng family tried to cut Hu Johor''s rice to express their loyalty. Instead of success, stealing chicken can''t erode the rice. The pair of presbyopic glasses of the Mohist family benefited the supreme emperor and the ordinary people. The result is self-evident.

 Chapter 405

    After the birthday gift delivery, the birthday banquet officially began.


    All kinds of delicious fried dishes, all kinds of exquisite cakes and desserts, coupled with a mouthwatering plate of sauce beef, the last one to solve thousands of worries was moved to the birthday banquet, which can be said to be full of a strong Mohist style.


    In particular, soy sauce beef makes people salivate. Eating beef in the Tang Dynasty can be said to violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty. However, this time, even Wei Zheng had no objection, but enjoyed delicious food with everyone.


    Because everyone knows that although the beef in front of us is the farm cattle of the Tang Dynasty, it is slaughtered by the Mojia village by replacing the adult strong cattle transported from various parts of the grassland with the old farm cattle.


    Although it is more than ten years old beef, even dignitaries are impeccable for Datang, which is extremely scarce beef, even Jieli Khan.


    If it had been put when he was a grassland Khan, he might not even want to taste such old beef. In those years, he must have eaten a calf less than a year old. Such beef was delicious, juicy and delicious.


    However, after coming to the Tang Dynasty, he became a prisoner. Although he narrowly saved his life, only he knows the taste from his previous high position to his current dependence on others.


    The most unbearable thing for him is that in terms of diet, Datang cattle are precious. How can he kill them for food? I''m afraid this is the first time he has eaten beef since he came to Chang''an.


    Jieli Khan divided five into two and ate the beef in front of him. Only then did he find that Li Yuan was staring at him.


    "Let the emperor laugh. Weichen hasn''t eaten beef for several years. He can''t help it for a moment." Jieli Khan said shamefully.


    "This is a small matter. Someone will serve another plate of beef with Jie Li." Li Yuan waved his hand, and immediately another maid in waiting offered another plate of beef to Jie Li Khan.


    "Have a drink with me!" Li Yuan raised his glass and invited Jie Li Khan.


    Jieli Khan got up quickly and drank it all in one gulp. Suddenly, a hot heat flowed into his stomach. Jieli Khan suddenly blushed and forced himself to hold back. This was no embarrassment.


    Many courtiers couldn''t help laughing. I''m afraid it was the same when they drank thousands of worries for the first time.


    "How about this wine?" Li Yuan laughed.


    "This is the strongest wine that Weichen drank in his life." Jieli Khan said truthfully.


    "Do you know that such a small bottle of wine is enough to replace a strong cow in all parts of the grassland. In the future, cattle and horses on the grassland will continue to pour into Datang, and you don''t have to worry about the lack of beef." Li Yuan said proudly.


    "A bottle of wine, a cow!" Jieli Khan only felt a rush of counter blood gushing into his heart, and suddenly his face was red.


    He is the king of grassland. Of course, he knows the importance of cattle. During his rule, even the most expensive Sanle pulp is not worth an ox leg! However, such a small bottle is worth a cow.


    He did not know that on the grassland, although the best-selling is the whole jar of stuffy horses, with the more exquisite packaging of jieqianchou flowing into the grassland, it was immediately loved by the grassland aristocrats and was fried into a sky high price. A bottle of jieqianchou was exchanged for a cow, but the supply was in short supply. Everyone competed with each other and was proud to drink the first wine of Datang.


    "It''s really lucky that all parts of the grassland can taste Chinese wine." Jieli Khan bowed his head and moaned.


    Li Yuan was extremely happy. Feng Shui took turns. When he started the army, he bowed to Jieli Khan and gave money to beauties. Now, seeing Jieli Khan like this, he immediately spit out all his resentment.


    "With such a grand scene, good wine and delicious food, how can there be no singing and dancing? Come and dance." Li Yuan stretched out his hand and immediately a group of dancers poured into Weiyang palace.


    "Hu Nu?" Merton couldn''t help but be stunned. He found that a group of blonde Hu Nu were pouring in. With passionate acceptance, he kept spinning and dancing.


    "Hu Xuan dance!"


    When Merton looked at it, he suddenly realized that this was the western region Huxuan dance. It is said that Huxuan dance originated in the Kang country of the western region and was very popular in all parts of the grassland in various countries of the western region. As the Silk Road spread to Chang''an City, it was all the rage in Chang''an city.


    The Hu women who were able to enter the Weiyang palace for performance were superb in dance skills, and immediately won bursts of applause from Weiyang palace.


    Li Yuan was very excited when he saw Jieli Khan on one side. He said in his heart, "I''ve heard that the right guard general is particularly good at this dance. It''s so beautiful. Why not dance a song."


    Hu whirlwind dance is particularly popular in Turks. In those days, Jieli Khan was famous for being good at Hu whirlwind dance. Even Li Yuan heard of it.


    Jieli Khan suddenly felt a pause in his heart when he heard the speech, and his face suddenly changed from red to white: "Weichen is old and has already forgotten this dance. How can he make a fool of himself in front of the supreme emperor."


    He used to dance Hu Xuan dance with high aspirations. Now he has become a prisoner and has the idea to dance there.


    Li Yuan was in high spirits. How could he easily give up and said, "this dance is simple and easy to learn. How can you forget it? I didn''t see the humility of the right guard general, so I didn''t invite the general to dance a song."


    The Hu woman who got the order immediately got the order and immediately went to lajieli Khan while dancing.


    Suddenly, I was sad. I thought that Lin Xiangru stood up for King Zhao at the rope pool meeting, and he was a prisoner at the bottom of the order. Who would stand out for him?


    Jieli Khan reluctantly danced with the dancer.


    After a song, the hall was filled with cheers.


    "The right back general is as elegant as he was before!" Li Yuan laughed.


    "Too much praise from the emperor!" Jieli Khan said with a gloomy face. He returned to his position and drank quietly. The beef in front of him was suddenly tasteless.


    Everyone knows that Li Yuanxin has two major problems. One is the change of the Xuanwu sect, and the other is his old enemy, Jieli Khan. When the Tang Dynasty was founded at the beginning of the year, Jieli Khan attacked the northern border of the Tang Dynasty year after year. In those years, Li Yuan was extremely oppressed and offered generous gifts and bribes to Turks every year, but he still couldn''t fill in Jieli Khan''s greed.


    The change of the Xuanwu Gate has been completed. Naturally, it cannot be changed, but Jieli Khan is imprisoned in Chang''an city. I''m afraid today''s scene is designed to please Li Yuan.


    They fought for their whole lives, but Li Yuan finally won and smiled to the end.


    After Li Yuan enjoyed himself, he invited everyone to drink.


    "Where there is wine, there must be poetry. Without poetry, wine is indecent!" Li Yuan put down his glass and said in a loud voice.


    Suddenly, everyone involuntarily turned their eyes to Merton, who was the last to rely on the door. Among all the poets in Chang''an City, Merton was very popular.


    Merton smiled bitterly and was about to get up, but found that Li Yuan turned his eyes to Feng Zhidai.


    "Although Feng Aiqing was born in Lingnan, I heard that she is very good at writing poetry. I wonder if she can write a poem!" Li Yuan said with three points of intoxication.


    Feng Zhidai was delighted at the speech and quickly saluted and said, "I would like to follow the instructions of the supreme emperor."


    "Zhixian changed into a hat and clothes, and Jili changed into a string chant,........." it has to be said that Feng Zhidai really has some literary talent. He wrote the story of his grandmother, Mrs. Xian, spreading Han culture in the South Vietnam. Zhixian is the clothes and clothes in the south of the five ridges. Now everyone wears Han clothes and crowns, and Jili is a musical instrument of ethnic minorities. Now everyone plays the strings, Moreover, there is no doubt that the education of Lingnan of Han culture will be fully displayed.


    When Feng Zhidai finished his poem, Li Yuan immediately looked very happy.


    "On my birthday, Jie Li danced, Chi Dai wrote poems, and Hu Yue''s family has never existed since ancient times." Li Yuan said excitedly.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he raised his glass and said, "today, the four barbarians are all taught by his majesty, which is beyond the intellectual reach of the minister. In the past, the emperor of the Han Dynasty also bought wine in this palace from the supreme emperor. He was arrogant and reserved, and the minister did not take it."


    Li Shimin''s words and gestures were extremely respectful. It was like returning to the scene of father kindness and son filial piety when Li Tang did not start the army.


    Li Yuan laughed, picked up his glass and drank it in one gulp. His eyes were dim.


    "The ministers congratulated the supreme emperor on his boundless life, long live, long live, long live." all the ministers in the Weiyang palace congratulated in unison.


    At this moment, Li Yuan did his best.

 Chapter 406

    "These are reading glasses?"


    Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan held a pair of reading glasses in their hands and looked around curiously on the bridge of their nose.


    After Li Yuan''s birthday, the news that the Mohists had conquered presbyopia spread in Chang''an city. On hearing the news, Hua Lao and Sun Simiao couldn''t wait to come to the Mohist house to test presbyopia glasses in person.


    Although they are well maintained, after all, they are old and have presbyopia to varying degrees. After wearing presbyopia glasses, their eyesight is as clear as when they were young.


    "This thing is so magical." Sun Simiao exclaimed. He is old and hard to write prescriptions, so it must be very convenient with the help of reading glasses.


    "Who would have thought that the secret of treating presbyopia was hidden in small hole imaging." Hua Yuan also smacked his tongue. Their doctors are obsessed with medical skills and pay attention to taking medicine to treat diseases. If they continue like this, they may not be able to overcome the persistent disease of presbyopia in another thousand years.


    Merton explained: "pinhole imaging is a linear mapping, and our eyes are curved refraction. They are very similar, while presbyopia is.


    Merton said, casually drawing the reason of presbyopia on the paper with a pen.


    "So it is?" Hua Yuan, a famous surgeon, said with a sigh. "It seems that Mo hospital should have a separate department, ophthalmology!"


    Sun Simiao nodded solemnly. The eye is the most vulnerable organ of the human body. For a long time, once there is a problem with the eye, even Hua Tuo is still weak. Who would have thought that the reading glasses are not medicine stones and need external assistance.


    Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao couldn''t help looking at each other. With the continuous prosperity of doctors, some different voices gradually appeared in Mohist hospital, believing that doctors can be separated from Mohist.


    However, now it seems that without the support of Mohism, doctors may soon be beaten back to their original shape. Maybe in the future, good Mohist doctors are destined to be separated. At least Mohism is still one day, and doctors will not be separated from Mohism.


    "What''s the selling price?" Sun Simiao asked with concern.


    If it is popularized to Datang in the future, if the price is too high, I''m afraid few people can afford it.


    "Always a pair of reading glasses!" Merton thought and said.


    "Consistent money?" Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan immediately shouted.


    Merton was stunned. Looking at the second old man, he couldn''t help but say carefully: "if it''s not 500 Wen, it''s really not good. The price can be discussed again!"


    Hua Yuan waved his hand again and again, nodded and said, "OK, 500 Wen, just 500 Wen!"


    It''s so crystal clear that it''s comparable to jade. It''s only 500 words. They can''t help but dream. Besides, 500 words can certainly revive the old man''s eyes. It''s extremely worth it for anyone to see.


    Merton doesn''t know that they are not rich, but think it''s cheaper to buy. However, when they want to know the cost of Merton, they may scold Merton as a profiteer!


    Soon, they talked about the construction of quchifang Medical College and were about to leave.


    Suddenly Mo Wu came in a hurry and reported: "two teachers, your majesty recruit each other."


    Mo Wu is now learning medicine at the same time around the two miracle doctors. It''s not too much to call them mentors together.


    Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao were surprised at the speech and got up quickly.


    "Your Majesty specially named the young master and asked him to go forward together." Mo said after five pauses.


    Merton was puzzled and had to follow them.


    The carriage went all the way and soon reached the palace. When the three got off, they saw that Li Shimin had been waiting outside the Lizheng hall.


    "See the emperor!" the three bowed.


    "Three Aiqing are exempt!" Li Shimin raised his arm falsely.


    "Your Majesty, but the Queen''s condition..." Sun Simiao got up and asked hurriedly.


    "Thanks to doctor sun''s advice, the body of the palace has greatly improved?" the graceful empress sun, dressed in palace clothes, came out of the hall and said in a crisp voice.


    "That''s good!" Sun Simiao had a little peace of mind.


    "I don''t know your Majesty''s move..." Hua Yuan didn''t understand. Since the queen is safe, I don''t know what''s important for Li Shimin to call her.


    Li Shimin pondered and said, "I want to ask you a question today when I recruit two miracle doctors."


    "Your Majesty, please!" Hua Yuan said.


    "Presumably, the two miracle doctors have learned that presbyopia has been conquered by the Mohist school, and the elderly can be corrected with presbyopia glasses, but how to treat it if a teenager has presbyopia." Li Shimin looked at the two miracle doctors and asked, but his eyes involuntarily floated to the Mohist family.


    "The boy has presbyopia!" Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao immediately looked at each other.


    Hua Yuan said in his heart, "what your majesty said is that teenagers study hard all year round. When they look at the distance, they have abnormal vague symptoms."


    He once met such a patient who came to see a doctor. When he heard Li Shimin say so, he suddenly realized that this symptom was very similar to presbyopia, but presbyopia could not be seen from a distance, while juvenile symptoms could not be seen from a distance.


    "Indeed, it is as the Chinese miracle doctor said!" Li Shimin nodded.


    Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao couldn''t help laughing bitterly. No wonder Li Shimin asked Merton to come. It turned out that today''s attending doctor was not them, but Merton.


    "Weichen, here is a pair of reading glasses. Your majesty has tried it out. Can it be universal!" Sun Simiao took out a pair of reading glasses and said.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I''ve tried this. Instead of getting better, it''s more serious. It''s very difficult to walk."


    "In this way, I''m afraid we can''t do anything!" Sun Simiao shook his head. Doctors are almost blank here about eyes. Naturally, they don''t know how to treat them.


    In an instant, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton. Since Merton found and found a solution to the presbyopia, I''m afraid only Merton can solve the vision problem of the teenager.


    Seeing this, Merton had to step out of the line. Li Shimin asked him to come by name. I''m afraid he also had such a mind.


    "This is myopia!"


    Merton opened his mouth and immediately made everyone happy. Since Merton can say the name of this eye disease, there is great hope.


    "Old people have presbyopia, can''t see near things clearly, far things are normal, while myopia is normal near things, and far things are blurred. It most often appears in teenagers who read books. In serious cases, they can''t see people''s faces close at hand, and they almost lie on books when reading." Merton explained.


    "Yes, that''s it!" said empress Chang sun eagerly.


    Li Shimin''s face sank when he heard the speech and said, "is it possible to recover from this myopia?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "if it is caused by short-term sharp myopia, it may recover. If it is caused by long-term reading habits, I''m afraid it can only be so for a lifetime."


    Empress Chang sun''s face turned white when she heard the speech, and her body couldn''t help shaking.


    Li Shimin could not help clenching his fist and said, "can you make glasses that can make myopia see clearly like presbyopia?"


    Merton nodded and said, "theoretically, presbyopia and myopia must be related. Weichen is sure to make myopia glasses."


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were relieved.


    "However, myopia is different from presbyopia, and personal conditions are different. I''m afraid only seeing real people can determine how to make myopia glasses," Merton said.


    Presbyopia is the cause of human function. The degree of each age group is roughly the same, but myopia is not the case. Merton had seen a young boy with a thick bottom of a wine bottle in his previous life.


    "Come in! Let Merton check it for you." Li Shimin sighed.


    I saw a girl in palace clothes coming in from the inner hall. Merton looked up and saw someone coming. He couldn''t help but grow up his mouth,


    This person is Princess Changle.

 Chapter 407

    "Changle!"


    Sun Simiao was stunned. Princess Changle had been studying medicine in the women''s Medical College. Sun Simiao took it as a general teaching of his own disciples. It can be said that he attached great importance to it, but he didn''t notice that Changle was unknowingly short-sighted.


    "In recent months, students always feel that their eyesight has dropped sharply and their viewing items are becoming more and more blurred. They have been hiding it from their mentor. Please forgive me." Princess Changle bowed her head and said.


    Empress changsun said painfully, "Changle studied hard day and night for the condition of the palace, and her eyes were damaged in just half a year."


    Sun Simiao nodded. Among the women''s medical school, Princess Changle is indeed the most hardworking, and her academic performance has always been among the best, which is indeed in line with Merton''s reasons for myopia.


    Li Shimin glared at Merton with hatred. If Merton hadn''t preached filial piety and medicine for his mother everywhere, Changle wouldn''t have entered medical school.


    Merton immediately shrunk his head with a guilty heart.


    Hua Yuan realized that after Li Shimin recruited them, he specially named the reason for Merton to move forward, and then associated with the rumors of Merton and Princess Changle, I''m afraid they are the doctors and the real doctors are Merton.


    "Cough!" Hua Yuan coughed, "Merton, you know the cause of myopia. If you came to treat Princess Changle."


    "Yes!" Merton nodded and came forward.


    Merton is not a doctor and only knows a little bit of medical skills. Of course, no one will care about these at the moment. After all, I''m afraid only Merton who can overcome reading glasses may know how to cure myopia. Only Li Shimin stares at Merton like a thief.


    "Look up and let me see your eyes!" said Merton.


    Princess Changle blushed when she heard the speech, but she looked up generously at Merton, but her eyes narrowed slightly when she looked at Merton.


    Merton wrinkled slightly and couldn''t see clearly so close. I''m afraid his myopia is really serious.


    Merton bowed his head and asked for a large rice paper, on which he wrote "Wei" line by line£¨   xu ¨§£©¡¯£¬ There is only one character in the first line, which is very large. I redraw it several times with a thick black brush. The character in the last line is as small as a sesame. Moreover, each character is different, upside down, left and right.


    Yes, what Merton has to do is a common vision chart for later generations.


    "This is a vision chart made by Weichen. The better the eyesight, the smaller the words people can read," Merton explained.


    Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao nodded at once. This method is indeed a good way to test their eyesight. They nodded secretly. In this way, Mo hospital must have another way to test their eyesight.


    Merton put the simply made visual acuity chart five steps away, pointed to one of the characters in the penultimate row and asked, "can the princess see the direction of this character?"


    Although Princess Changle opened her eyes to see clearly, what she saw was still a blur.


    Li Shimin''s heart sank. In his position, he could clearly see that the word "Wei" was facing down.


    Merton sighed in his heart. Sure enough, this is the vision of normal people. There was a problem with Princess Changle''s eyes.


    "What about this?"


    Merton pointed to the upper line, a larger word. Unfortunately, it was still vague for Princess Changle.


    Merton pointed up a few lines again. Unfortunately, Princess Changle was still like this. It was not until the fourth line that Princess Changle could barely distinguish the direction of the word.


    Merton''s heart sank. I''m afraid he''s nearsighted for nearly five Baidu in future generations.


    "Your Majesty, I''m afraid Princess Changle''s eyesight is only one fifth of that of normal people." Merton said again.


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly changed and said, "but there are still ways to remedy it."


    Merton nodded: "Princess Changle''s vision decline is a sharp decline in a short time. If the method is appropriate, it can''t completely recover, but at least it won''t affect her normal action.


    "That''s good, but you need to take medicine?" the empress asked eagerly.


    Merton shook his head. Although later generations have eye drops, he can''t make them in a short time at this time.


    "Myopia is eye fatigue caused by excessive use of eyes. If you want to recover, you must relax your eyes. The princess has studied in medical school for nearly a year. Can you know what acupoints there are in her eyes?" Merton turned to Princess Changle and asked.


    Without thinking, Princess Changle blurted out: "there are zanzhu acupoint, Tianying acupoint, Qingming acupoint, Sibai acupoint, Fengchi acupoint and temple acupoint around the eyes.


    Sun Simiao suddenly looked satisfied when he heard the speech. Princess Changle was indeed his most proud student and his extraordinary talent for medical skills.


    Merton nodded and said, "in that case, can the princess try to soothe these acupoints with a doctor''s massage to see if it can slightly reduce some symptoms of myopia."


    Princess Changle, acting according to her words, stroked these acupoints several times, opened her eyes and looked at the people again. She was pleasantly surprised and said, "it worked."


    When they heard the speech, they were relieved. Even Li Shimin''s face showed a smile. Merton was relieved, and his feeling disappeared immediately.


    "Myopia is not inevitable. As long as you don''t read in the sun or in a dark place for a long time and maintain a correct sitting posture, normal reading won''t cause myopia," Merton said.


    "If your eyes feel tired, you can put down your books and look out from the window. Reading, calligraphy and the combination of work and rest are the right way. Blindly studying hard will only be counterproductive. Reading dead books and reading dead books will not achieve academic success, but make your eyes wear out."


    The crowd couldn''t help nodding. Merton was the most persuasive. Merton was famous in Chang''an City, but he didn''t study hard. On the contrary, none of the students in the Tang Dynasty had a good time.


    Merton said with emotion: "we have always advocated studying hard in the cold window, and have been taking chiseling walls to steal light and reflecting snow as a model. However, we do not know that this spirit is indeed admirable, but this behavior is definitely not worth advocating. Dark light and strong light are the most destructive to people''s eyes. If everyone is like this, the eyes of students all over the world will be destroyed here."


    Li Shimin and the eldest grandson empress immediately looked at each other. Who would have thought that the model of hard study advocated by teachers all over the world should be so misleading.


    Hua Yuan nodded and said, "it''s true. I''ve seen too many young people with myopia in Mo hospital. It''s a pity that we can''t do anything about it."


    Merton had an idea and said, "in fact, the students all over the world are suffering from myopia. Why don''t the princess personally take herself as an example, take the doctor''s acupoints as the basis, imitate the five birds opera, and compile a set of special eye protection actions. If we can promote the Tang Dynasty, it will benefit the students all over the world."


    When Princess Changle heard the speech, her eyes lit up and nodded again and again. Even the empress changsun looked at Merton with a little more appreciation. If so, her daughter must be famous all over the world and remain famous in history. Which parents in the world don''t want their children to shine?


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Merton is still a man. Although they don''t care about fame and wealth, it''s a rare opportunity for the royal family to benefit the world.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this time, he turned disaster into blessing. Otherwise, let alone Li Shimin, I''m afraid he can''t even pass the level of protecting his sister''s crazy demon Li Chengqian.


    Merton couldn''t help smiling at Changle, who was experimenting with eye protection exercises. If eye health exercises could be born a thousand years ahead of time, it would certainly benefit countless people.

 Chapter 408

    "Come one by one and let Merton check your eyesight." outside the Lizheng hall, a group of princes lined up one by one under the leadership of Li Chengqian, waiting for Merton to check their eyesight.


    Now that Merton has invented the eyesight chart, Li Shimin just took the opportunity to check the eyesight of all the princes, so as to prevent the example of Princess Changle from appearing again.


    "The ninth younger brother is the last to enter school, but if the ninth younger brother comes first!" Li Chengqian looked at the princes and pointed to the last Li Zhi.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Recently, Li Chengqian''s performance has satisfied him very much. He especially likes the sight of brotherly harmony.


    Li Zhi looked around curiously. He didn''t understand what it meant, so he had to go to the position designated by Merton.


    "The ninth Prince covered his left eye first to see which direction this one was heading?" Merton pointed directly to the line of normal people''s vision.


    "Down!"


    Li Zhijin studied at the latest, and learned to cheat and play slippery. He was not short-sighted and quickly gave the correct answer.


    Merton pointed up and down again, and Lizhi answered like a stream.


    "Your Majesty, the vision of the ninth Prince has not been damaged." Merton bowed to Li Shimin.


    Li Zhi proudly walked up to Li Shimin and said in a charming voice, "father, is the child''s eyes good?"


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he couldn''t help but feel Li Zhi''s head proudly and breathe a sigh of relief. The eldest Sun Queen was more compassionate and hugged Li Zhi in her arms.


    However, the next examination suddenly made Li Shimin look sad. The Royal schoolwork was very heavy. In addition to Li Zhi, who had just entered school, the next four princes, except Li you, who was ignorant and incompetent, all showed varying degrees of myopia.


    "Green Finch, it''s your turn!" Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai.


    With a bitter smile, Li Tai came to the position where his brothers had stood before.


    "Which direction is this?" Merton asked, pointing to the line of normal vision.


    Li Tai shook his head decadent.


    Merton pointed up a few. Li Tai still shook his head. Finally, he barely recognized it. The result was only better than Princess Changle.


    Merton sighed and said, "Your Highness the king of Wei is the most hardworking on weekdays. His eyes are seriously damaged. His eyesight is only one third of that of normal people."


    Li Shimin said with hope on his face, "can the Green Finch restore his eyesight like Changle?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "Princess Changle is acute myopia, and it is still possible to recover. His Highness the king of Wei is caused by hard study day after day. Although the rest can be improved, the effect is very little."


    "My poor child!" the eldest grandson empress burst into tears.


    "Empress mother, don''t worry. Although the children''s ministers have impaired eyesight, they have gained knowledge. They don''t regret that they can die in the morning and evening." Li Tai said proudly.


    Merton couldn''t help but look at Li Tai with new eyes. It''s not for no reason that later Li Tai can win the favor of Li Shimin and empress Chang sun. On this remark, Merton gave him nine points, and the rest is afraid of his pride.


    "Don''t worry about the queen. She found it early at the moment. If she can combine work and rest and cooperate with eye exercises in the future, she can ensure that her eyesight will not deteriorate." Merton said.


    Next is Li Ke, king of Wu.


    As for Li Ke, king of Wu, Merton has not seen a few times. He is more impressed by his outstanding performance in the year-old imperial college examination, but he is not high-profile.


    After a careful examination, Merton nodded and said, "although his highness King Wu''s eyes are a little nearsighted, they do not affect his normal study and life. Just pay more attention in the future."


    "Thank you, Lord Mo!" Li Ke said with an arched hand, as calm as ever.


    The last one to check was Li Chengqian. Merton pointed out a few times, put away the vision chart and said, "Your Highness is at the critical point of myopia. At present, as long as it doesn''t aggravate, it won''t affect daily life, but if it continues to deteriorate, I''m afraid you need to wear myopia glasses."


    So far, all the prince''s eye tests have been completed. Except Li you and Li Zhi, almost all the prince have different myopia.


    Of course, the most serious is Li Tai, king of Wei. His proud talent has brought about eye damage.


    "Merton, can''t the Green Finch''s eyesight really recover?" Li Shimin asked reluctantly.


    Merton nodded affirmatively: "the myopia accumulated over time is absolutely impossible to recover, but your majesty should not worry. When Weichen returns to Mojia village and makes myopia glasses, his Highness the king of Wei will see things as normal as ordinary people."


    "Lord Mo, are you really sure to make Wang''s eyes as clear as before?" Li Tai said urgently.


    Myopia has plagued him for a long time. He has long dared not expect that clear feeling, but Merton can even make reading glasses to restore the eyes of the elderly, and maybe his own eyes.


    Merton nodded: "myopia and reading glasses have the same reason. Weichen already knows its principle. Making myopia glasses in the future is not a problem."


    Li Tai said happily, "since I was ten years old, I have covered my eyes like a layer of gauze. I am no longer blessed to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the distance. Please don''t let me wait too long."


    Merton moved in his heart and said, "you don''t have to wait too long for his Highness the king of Wei. Weichen can immediately let his Highness the king of Wei feel as clear as before."


    "Seriously?"


    People were immediately skeptical.


    Merton definitely nodded and said, "I don''t know if there is ice in the palace, some very transparent ice!"


    Of course, Merton can''t change his myopia lens, but now it''s a cold winter and December day. Ice is everywhere. Ice and glass are two equally transparent objects. He decided to make a pair of ice myopia lenses for Li Tai in a very short time.


    Soon, pound brought a large piece of transparent ice from the imperial dining room and said, "I inform your majesty that most of the ice in the palace is white. Only the boiled water boiled by the imperial kitchen yesterday and frozen last night, there is an extremely transparent ice left."


    Merton nodded. Ordinary water is white when it freezes because there are many bubbles in the water. When it freezes, it is frozen before it has time to escape. This is white. The boiled water has exhausted the air in the water as much as possible. This is the best tool for making concave lenses.


    Merton took a breath, planed the ice into a thin piece, then rubbed it back and forth with his fingers, and melted the center of the ice a little bit with his fingers


    Soon, a simple concave lens had been formed in Zi Merton''s hands.


    "Your Highness King Wei, please look!" Merton handed the ice concave lens to Li Tai.


    Li Tai was curious to take over. Suddenly, he felt sick in his hands stimulated by the cold ice. He couldn''t wait to put it in front of him, and suddenly a clear scene appeared in front of him,


    "I can really see!" Li Tai suddenly got up and looked into the distance like a child holding borneol. He could see the dry branches moving with the wind fifty steps away.


    "Your Highness the king of Wei, please look here!" Merton stood in front of the chart again and pointed to the last line.


    "Down!"


    "Right!"


    Li Tai answered like a stream, all correct.


    "Ha ha, your Highness the king of Wei''s eyes are comparable to the archers in the army." Merton laughed.


    The princes were surprised that Merton could instantly restore Li Tai''s eyesight with ice. It was amazing.


    Li Tai was excited until the ice in his hand melted. He reluctantly put down the ice in his hand. Merton''s secret skill really deserves its reputation. Since Merton can make myopia glasses with ice, he must be able to make myopia glasses like reading glasses.


    And the time for him to regain his sight is just around the corner.

 Chapter 409

    With a heavy snow covering the whole north of Datang, the seven years of Zhenguan in Datang has come to an end, and the Spring Festival is coming.


    The first day (Spring Festival) holiday of the Tang Dynasty is similar to that of later generations. It is also seven days,


    According to the Convention, at this time of year, the imperial court will hold a large imperial meeting at the end of the year to summarize the gains and losses of the imperial government in the past year.


    Outside the Tai Chi hall.


    All the ministers lined up in turn and walked into the Tai Chi palace along the newly cleaned snow path. However, when entering the Tai Chi palace, all the courtiers were involuntarily attracted by a touch of green.


    Outside the Tai Chi hall, two potted plants that had been destroyed by Merton had already disappeared. Instead, a small potted plant was replaced. In the flower pot covered with heavy snow, several green leaves stubbornly showed their heads. This is the auspicious gift of Merton, spinach.


    In a withered and yellow world, suddenly there is a vegetable that can survive in the heavy snow. It will be very valuable. It can be imagined that when this spinach blooms and seeds in the beginning of spring, there will be no lack of green vegetables in the winter of Datang in the future.


    "Grunt!" a swallowing voice came from the ministers,


    Cheng Yaojin, one of the generals, couldn''t help swallowing water when he saw the green spinach. He was lucky to have tasted spinach. It''s a rare delicacy to eat in winter.


    "Good luck for Mojia Zi!"


    Many courtiers could not help admiring.


    This spinach in front of us not only represents the availability of green vegetables in the winter of Datang, but also confirms the correct way to introduce seeds from other countries.


    Although the Central Plains Dynasty has always claimed to be the superior kingdom of heaven and regarded other countries as wild places, this spinach has proved to everyone that although foreign countries are backward, they do not have nothing to take. If the seeds and medicinal materials in Merton''s mouth are introduced into Datang, Datang will certainly benefit immensely.


    At the back of Wen Chen''s team, Feng Zhidai looked at the spinach in front of him and couldn''t help glancing at the last figure of Merton. Merton hated him. Merton gave him the big hat of Zi Gong redeeming people, and the real benefits were all monopolized by the Mohists. In his opinion, this was a complete act of eating alone.


    Everyone rushed into the Tai Chi hall, and suddenly a warm wave came to his face. The heating in the whole Tai Chi hall had already been opened, and the main hall was as warm as spring.


    The cold wind outside the hall is cold, and the warmth inside the hall is like spring, forming an extremely sharp contrast. The young ministers can''t help showing a satisfied look. They are old and can''t stand the cold. The heating invented by Merton is really very kind to them.


    However, the dignitaries in the front row were naturally extremely warm. In the position close to the gate, bursts of cold wind penetrated through the crack of the door from time to time. At the end of the Wenchen column, Feng Zhidai was shivering by bursts of cold wind.


    However, in the column of generals, Merton was extremely comfortable. He stood proudly next to a radiator added by his abuse of power. Although there was cold blowing in, he didn''t feel cold


    Merton secretly shouted that he still had foresight, otherwise he would be frozen if he installed the heating, wouldn''t it be too bad.


    On one side, Li Junxian thumbed up to Merton with admiration on his face, and moved his body to share the warmth.


    "The emperor arrives!" with Pound''s shrill voice, Li Shimin appeared in front of the Dragon chair.


    "See the emperor!" the ministers bowed.


    "You are all flat!" Li Shimin said with a smile on his face.


    The Grand Court meeting officially began. Fang Xuanling, on behalf of all officials, began the annual merit demonstration meeting. "I inform your majesty that the reclamation of wasteland in Datang this year is more than twice that of last year..." Fang Xuanling took out his reading glasses, put them on and looked at his Chaohu excitedly.


    Although the reclamation of wasteland has been banned in the whole Guanlong area, with the emergence of Quyuan plow, the reclamation of wasteland in the whole Datang immediately increased significantly. You know, at this time, land represents wealth, and the increase of land represents the increase of taxes in the coming year.


    "Thanks to your Majesty''s wisdom, Datang has overcome the drought, locusts and floods this year..." Fang Xuanling''s voice is excited. There are too many things worth doing in Datang this year!


    Li Shimin''s heart is very fast. This year can be said to be the most pleasant year for him. The three natural disasters can be said to be a great trouble for all dynasties. However, in the seven years of Zhenguan, it has been miraculously solved. It can be said without hesitation that the seven years of Zhenguan will be destined to go down in history.


    He could not help but turn his eyes to the figure of Merton in the corner in front of the Tai Chi hall. All these achievements began when the Mohist School broke into the deep-water Longtan of Chang''an city like a reckless catfish.


    He threw Merton to the Imperial College to experiment with the catfish effect, and Merton did not disappoint him and handed over a satisfactory answer.


    However, with his support, Mohism developed rapidly in Chang''an city. In the Tang Dynasty, which is like a backwater, it broke out amazing power. Is this not a catfish effect?


    After Fang Xuanling''s report, Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, stepped out and said, "I inform your majesty that the brick road from Chang''an city to Luoyang has been completed."


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    Duan Lun solemnly nodded. Although the brick road was proposed by Merton, it was built by him after all. In order to please Li Shimin, the work department worked overtime, and the construction at both ends was finally completed years ago. Build the brick road from Chang''an to Luoyang.


    "At present, the Ministry of industry has done a traffic test. From Chang''an city to Luoyang, horses can be replaced at the post station every hundred miles. Full trucks can reach Luoyang City day and night." Duan Lun said excitedly.


    "Morning and evening!" in the hall of Tai Chi, all officials were shocked.


    In one day, we can reach Luoyang from Chang''an City, which was unimaginable before, but now it has really come true.


    More importantly, even in today''s heavy snow weather, brick roads are still unimpeded. Such brick roads are too important to Datang.


    "What about the brick road leading to Longyou?" Li Shimin took a deep breath. This brick road is the logistics road of Tuyuhun at the beginning of the year, but it is the top priority.


    "Return to your majesty! The brick road leading to Longyou has been built for 300 Li and reaches Chencang. It will speed up in years. It will be completed in April next year without delaying your Majesty''s major events." Duan Lun played.


    Chen Cang, the Baoji of later generations, is more than 300 li away from Chang''an. So far, the Ministry of work has built 1100 Li brick roads. The weather is getting warmer and the speed of road construction naturally increases greatly. Before, the Ministry of work has always focused on the brick road from Chang''an to Luoyang. Duan Lun is still very confident that the remaining brick roads will be paved three months after the year.


    Li Shimin stretched out his hand and pound immediately presented a map of the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin looked at Chen Cang''s position, nodded with satisfaction and said: "the brick road in Longyou is temporarily built to Lanzhou. After the Tuyuhun war, the work department immediately continued to lay the brick road, reaching Yumenguan in the West and Yumenguan in the East..."


    Li Shimin paused, picked up the Zhu pen, made a heavy flower on the map, and said proudly, "to the sea in the East!"


    "The sea?" Duan Lun was frightened and incoherent, staring at the long red line on the map from east to west with a Zhu pen by Li Shimin.


    Merton was shocked when he heard the speech. He didn''t expect that the famous Longhai line in later generations began to take shape at the end of the seventh year of Zhenguan.

 Chapter 410

    "West to Yumen pass, east to the sea!"


    All officials suddenly looked up and were shocked by Li Shimin''s ambition. It would be a brick road across the Tang Dynasty from the west to Yumen pass and the east to the sea.


    "Not bad!" Li Shimin nodded solemnly. "This line connects Longyou Road, Guannei road and Henan Road, four thousand miles long."


    "Four thousand miles!" all officials were shocked. This is not a small project in this era.


    Although the brick road is cheap and the project is simple, it can''t stand the long route! The money spent must have doubled.


    Of course, the benefits are obvious. The brick road along the Longhai line is the economic center of the Tang Dynasty. Once the construction is completed, the benefits are naturally unlimited.


    However, this time, none of the officials objected. Once the brick road of Longhai line is completed, the East and west of Datang will be unimpeded. So far, Datang has a grand canal in the north-south direction, a Longhai line in the east-west direction, and a cross traffic line has been officially formed in Datang.


    "Please do what your majesty can. Don''t repeat the mistakes like the Grand Canal." Wei Zheng advised. Wei Zheng did not object to road construction, but dissuaded Li Shimin not to act too hastily. Anyone can see the benefits of brick roads. However, it would be very bad if he would over recruit the people and turn good things into bad things.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "Wei Aiqing can rest assured that the brick road construction project is simple, the people along the way are competent, and there are bond issues, mainly to hire people, which will certainly not affect people''s life."


    The biggest cost of building brick roads is not manpower, but money, especially the money to buy bricks. There are solutions to the three natural disasters. I''m afraid it''s not a difficult problem in terms of money.


    Wei Zheng naturally thought of this, did not advise, bowed and returned to the queue.


    When the Mohist school built the brick road in the south of the city, they had envisaged a grand brick road map connected by the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, they shook their heads and denied. Now only a few months later, Longyou Road, Guannei Road, Henan Road and the three roads of the Tang Dynasty have been connected. Will it be far from the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty?


    At the gate of Tai Chi hall, Merton couldn''t help smiling. Once Datang tasted the benefits of brick road, he must embark on a rapid development road and can''t stop if he wants to.


    Almost all of the Grand Court meeting became a performance of Mohism, and almost all the meritorious achievements of 100 officials were related to Mohism.


    With the passage of one issue after another, everyone can''t help smiling knowingly. If this continues, Datang will become stronger and stronger,


    They remembered that as early as the beginning of the year, Merton was full of confidence in the coming of the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid they only thought that Merton was a yellow haired boy, flattering and talking nonsense.


    Who would have thought that in less than a year, everyone had a hunch that the prosperity predicted by Merton was just around the corner,


    Soon, when the great court meeting was over, there was only one last topic left, that is, the rebellion of the southwest bureaucrats, which was probably the only annoyance in the seven years of Zhenguan.


    "Your Majesty, in May, the Yazhou road staff rebelled, and Zhang Shigui, the chief manager of the Yazhou road march, pursued the anti staff and returned home with great victory. In December, the Liao rebellion in Jialing and Lingzhou, and Niu JINDA, the unified army of Hanjiang Prefecture, has entered the two states. At present, no news has been reported back." Hou Junji, the Minister of war, reported.


    Li Shimin could not help but frown. The Liao people are the most troublesome national problem in the Tang Dynasty. The southwest Liao people occupy a dangerous place, and the imperial court mostly appeases them. However, Rao is so. He is still rebellious. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the rebellion of the southwest Liao people has continued despite repeated prohibitions. This year is particularly serious. The Liao people in three States rebelled within a year.


    "Your Majesty, don''t worry. General Niu has been on the battlefield for a long time. How can the bureaucrats of only two states turn up big waves." Chang sun Wuji comforted.


    Li Shimin nodded. The elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had nothing to say to defeat the poorly equipped staff.


    "Liao people''s rebellion continues despite repeated prohibitions. How do you Aiqing think it should be managed?" Li Shimin frowned. Liao people''s repeated rebellion has caused losses, and the impact is extremely bad.


    The ministers were suddenly silent.


    As the Minister of the Ministry of military, Hou Junji had to list out and say, "Your Majesty, the rebellion of the bureaucrats continued despite repeated prohibitions. It can be seen that he is extremely dissatisfied with the imperial court. At the end, he will think that the imperial court needs to hoard heavy troops in the Southwest in case of no need. He will severely punish the rebellious bureaucrats as an example."


    Hou Junji was so murderous that he obviously wanted to make an example of the Liao people and frighten them.


    Li Shimin bowed his head and thought. He was also very annoyed by the rebellion of the Liao people. If this method could permanently suppress the rebellion of the Liao people, it would be a once and for all way, Li Shimin was vaguely moved.


    "Your Majesty, this must not happen?" Kong Yingda said.


    "The people of the five countries are all Chinese, the king loves and the four barbarians. Your majesty is respected as Tian Khan. Our Tang Dynasty is also a state of etiquette. We should only convince people with virtue and educate them..."


    Kong Yingda was full of ideas and advocated the Confucian policy of restraint and tenderness.


    Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly, "it''s pedantic. In this case, why do you use general Niu Zhang? If the bureaucrats rebel, let Lord Kong use one mouth to fight the rebellion."


    Kong Ying dadon''s face was livid and said, "old Cheng, don''t be presumptuous. It''s the local chieftain''s fault for the Liao people to rebel. How innocent the Liao people are. If you kill the innocent indiscriminately, it will damage the holy virtue of the son of heaven.


    Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly, "anyone who takes up arms and aims at the officers and men of Datang is the enemy of Datang! There is no innocence against the enemy."


    For a while, Wen Chen and the generals had constant disputes. One side advocated Huairou and the other advocated force deterrence and strong repression.


    "The people of the four barbarians are all the people of the Tang Dynasty. I will treat them equally. If the bureaucrats revolt, only the chief villains will be punished." Li Shimin finally chose the same line of literary officials.


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    All officials bow down.


    "The rebellion of the Liao people is just a state, and the rest of the Liao people are self-contained. The imperial court combines kindness and power, sends envoys to appease the non rebellious Liao people, at the same time, suppresses the rebellion of the Liao people, and sends their chief villains back to Chang''an for joint trial by the third division." Wei Zhengdao.


    Li Shimin immediately nodded slightly and said, "what Wei Aiqing said is very true. This is the old way of governing the country."


    Feng zhidayton said: "Lingnan road is also a group of Liao people. The Feng family can mediate from it to persuade Liao people to belong to the court."


    He lost face in front of Li Shimin because of Johor rice. Seeing this opportunity at this moment, he naturally expressed his merit immediately. The Feng family has a high position among the southwest bureaucrats and has a great voice. If he can make this happen, he will certainly be able to make a big face in front of the imperial court.


    "Feng Aiqing has a heart, and the Duke of Geng has made great contributions to the stability of the southwest." Li Shimin sighed.


    As long as the southwest is inseparable from the Feng family, his position in Chang''an city will be as stable as Mount Tai.


    "Wei Chen objected!" when Feng Zhidai was proud, a voice that impressed him suddenly said.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Feng Zhidai gnashed his teeth in his heart.

 Chapter 411

    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty also frowned and looked discontentedly at the last Merton. Although Wen Chen and the military general fought, they essentially knew that the combination of grace and power was the best choice to manage the southwest ethnic minorities. The two fought only to focus on the other side, and the Mexican family directly opposed this policy, which was not a negation of their previous policy.


    "Merton, do you know what you''re talking about?" Li Shimin''s face sank.


    Merton stood out and said, "tell your majesty, I know."


    Li Shimin became angry and said angrily, "in that case, tell me! If you can''t tell me your ugly Yin Mao, I can''t spare you!"


    Merton nodded solemnly and arched around: "Your Majesty, your ministers, the rebellion of the southwest bureaucrats has a long history. Your majesty has been courting them for many years. The bureaucrats are vulgar, frequent and ineffective, and have rebelled many times. If they have been courted all the time, I''m afraid the rebellion will continue after ten or a hundred years. However, if they are strongly suppressed, it will damage your Majesty''s benevolence and make the bureaucrats stick together. I''m afraid the bureaucrats will die and grieve for the imperial court Deviant. "


    Merton understood in his heart that even in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, thousands of years later, the ethnic minorities in the southwest were still rebellious. It can be seen how difficult the southwest problem is.


    Li Shimin nodded, which was exactly what he was worried about.


    "In your opinion, how should we manage and solve the problem of staff?" Wei Zheng frowned.


    Merton arched his hand at Kong Yingda and said, "in fact, what the wine worship Lord said just now has cut into the main points."


    Kong Yingda was stunned. He didn''t expect Merton to agree with his ideas.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, the crime of rebellion of the staff is the chieftain, and the staff is so innocent, but I don''t know how the court will deal with the local provocation after general Niu Zhang breaks through the provocation."


    Kong Yingda didn''t think about it: "of course, it''s to support a bureaucrat leader who is interested in the imperial court to succeed the chieftain."


    Merton nodded, "this is the root of the Liao rebellion."


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and immediately understood Merton''s meaning.


    "You mean that the chieftain system is the root of the repeated rebellion of the Liao people." Wei Zheng suddenly said.


    All the officials were shocked. They always thought about where to rebel and counter the rebellion, but they never changed the chieftain system of the bureaucrats.


    "Yes, the chieftains of the Liao people are all local chiefs of big families. It is difficult to follow the imperial court''s laws. The Liao people only know the chieftain and do not know the imperial court. They seem to be separated from the imperial court and are not controlled by the imperial court. They live in one place and are arrogant. They sit around and watch the sky. If the imperial court reprimands them, they will rebel and make trouble. Even if the imperial court selects a chieftain who is interested in the imperial court, I''m afraid it will be a history after one or two generations Merton pointed the spearhead directly at the chieftain system.


    All the officials could not help nodding. Now the staff really feel that they can''t beat or scold. The imperial court''s control over them is very weak.


    "In your opinion?" Li Shimin''s face slowed slightly, and he realized that Merton was not talking nonsense, but after careful consideration.


    "Change the soil to flow!" Merton said word by word.


    "Change the soil and return to the flow!" all officials couldn''t help chewing these four words, and their hearts suddenly opened up.


    Merton said: "most of the local officials are local big families, who are extravagant and licentious. They rule brutally internally. They regard the headquarters as their own three-thirds of an acre of land. They are inherited from generation to generation. Without being appointed by the court, they naturally have no loyalty to the court. If the local officials are changed into floating officials appointed by the court, like other states and counties, they will rotate every three years, which will strengthen the rule of the court and avoid the expansion of the local tribes."


    When the leader of the tribe serves as the chieftain, his tribe will grow rapidly. When the Liao tribe is strong, it will have the capital to rebel and make trouble.


    Li Shimin''s eyes narrowed slightly and couldn''t help looking at Merton with appreciation. This is indeed the best way to solve the increasingly frequent rebellion of the bureaucrats. In his opinion, when the Tang Dynasty unified the world, it was too solicitous to the southwest. All those who belonged to the Tang Dynasty were allowed to pay high officials, resulting in the current tail.


    "There is a possibility of rebellion in any place that is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court! Naturally under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, it should be under the rule of the imperial court, which is great unification!" Merton solemnly said.


    The theory of great unification originated from Gongyang''s biography in the spring and Autumn period. The king was ordered to make the first month to unify the world, so that all things follow it as the beginning. Therefore, it is said that the officials in the court are people who have read poetry and books. Naturally, they know the theory of great unification and have been pursuing the policy of great unification, but the great unification of the court is more used to rule the Han people.


    But Merton''s great unification was more radical, and even included the great unification theory in the bureaucrats in the southwest and even the whole territory of Datang.


    "Your Majesty?" Feng Zhidai couldn''t help but be very anxious and repeatedly objected. "Wei Chen has lived in Lingnan for generations. Naturally, he knows that the southwest Liao people are very united. If the land is changed to flow, I''m afraid it will provoke a collective rebellion among the southwest Liao people."


    All officials suddenly changed their faces. Merton''s suggestion seemed to be once and for all. If so, I''m afraid the price paid by the imperial court will be extremely heavy. At that time, all parts of the southwest will oppose, and the price paid by Datang is too high. After all, no one is willing to lose their power.


    "If you dare to rebel in the southwest, you should ask if the knives in the hands of Tang soldiers are sharp." Cheng Yaojin raised his eyebrows and shouted.


    Many generals immediately rubbed their hands, and all were filled with righteous indignation.


    Li Shimin''s face also sank, weighing the gains and losses in his heart.


    "Is it the king''s land in the whole world, or the king''s officials who lead the land, and there are endless rebellions in the southwest, so the imperial court should really strengthen its rule." Fang Xuanling took a deep breath and said.


    Many officials also nodded. Within a year, the staff rebelled three times, and many courtiers were also angry.


    "The Tang Dynasty must be in dire straits when suffering from the border. The minister wants to play Merton and provoke the crime of suffering from the border without authorization." Kong Yingda said coldly. He thought that the Mohist school had changed its mind. He didn''t expect that the Mohist school was still implementing his radical unification theory, and the Mohist radical unification theory that frightened him still has a market, Many officials have even supported this unified theory.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help lamenting that great unification is the theory of Confucianism. It was applied by Mohists. In this regard, what student did the Imperial College teach!


    Feng Zhidai is also worried. If he is the biggest chieftain, he has to count the Feng family. The Feng family is the strongest force in Lingnan, and they are backed by the tribe of Mrs. Xian, a Baiyue ethnic group. They change the land to flow, and the Feng family is the first of them.


    Li Shimin was in a dilemma. He couldn''t help but suddenly saw a calm Merton on his face and said in his heart, "Merton, since you proposed to change the soil to flow, you said how to solve the rebellion of chieftains in the southwest."


    Merton smiled with a simple and honest smile and said, "Your Majesty, the situation in the southwest reminds Wei Chen of an experiment in Mozi''s Secret works."


    "Mozi''s secret book!" the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty were immediately quiet. They had heard a lot about this great Mozi''s secret book, which made the Mohist School rise again. They didn''t expect that Merton would mention it in the court hall again.


    "Mozi once did an experiment of boiling frogs in warm water. Frogs are cold. If you put a frog in a pot of warm water, the frog will not stand the high temperature and jump out of the pot and escape successfully. However, if you put the frog in a pot with cold water first and then heat it slowly, the result will be different. The frog wanders in the water because of the comfort of the water temperature at the beginning When the frog found that he couldn''t stand the high temperature, he had more heart than strength, and was unconsciously boiled to death in hot water. "


    Merton said that the whole dynasty was silent. All the people who could enter the hall were human spirits. Naturally, Merton knew that the frogs in his mouth meant the southwest.


    Merton said proudly, "change the tufu first, and then the tuzhou. The chieftain has too much power in the land of one state and one government. The probability of rebellion is the greatest, and the harm is particularly serious."


    The courtiers could not help nodding. The local chieftains took the lead in the three rebellious states,


    "The second is to seize all favorable opportunities to change the land and return to the flow. For example, some local officials are sent to take over when they have no heir, no successor, or clan competition;"


    "Local officials hate each other. After they are calmed down, they will send Liuguan to take over."


    "After some local officials committed crimes or rebelled against the imperial court, they were dismissed for crimes and replaced by exiled officials."


    "Some local people are dissatisfied with the tyranny of the chieftain and can apply to the court for" changing the land to flow ", and the court naturally responds to the public opinion."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Every time Merton said a word, the face of the court officials smiled a little more, especially the last one. The local people applied to the court for land conversion, which was too operable.


    "In this way, the chieftains in the southwest are like frogs in warm water. They have lost their chance to escape." Merton clenched his fist and said proudly.


    The officials of the Manchu Dynasty immediately sighed in their hearts. The original difficult problem that seemed to be difficult to everyone was solved by the Mohist School in a few words. This time, even Kong Yingda could not refute it. After all, this method can not only complete the great unification policy of the imperial court, but also avoid the chieftain rebellion to the greatest extent. Even if there is, it is an itch of scabies and can not cause any big waves. The only thing that made him uncomfortable this time was the theory of Mohism.


    "Mo Sheng is indeed a man of great wisdom." Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. A big Tang''s heart trouble easily found a solution.


    "In that case, we should start from Yazhou, Jiazhou and Lingzhou to change the land to Liuzhou. All places involved in the rebellion should be replaced by Liuguan," Li Shimin decided.


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    The courtiers bowed down. As a result, there were more vacancies in the imperial court. For the imperial court, this is a real benefit.


    Feng zhidayton was very sad at that time. If the imperial court completed the land reform and return to the southwest, the Feng family, which started by restraining the southwest, would naturally lose its role. At that time, the Feng family would no longer have today''s glory.


    Looking at Feng Zhidai''s expression, Merton couldn''t help smiling and said in his heart, "I''m also dedicated to my country!"


    At the end of this year, the Grand Court meeting officially ended.

 Chapter 412

    Outside Mojia village, there is snow everywhere. A clean red brick road is covered with snow on both sides.


    The brick road is broad, comparable to the official road, and connected with the blue brick road of the official road in the south of the city. On both sides of the brick road, almost all the villagers of Mojia village went out, looking forward to looking in the direction of the official road.


    In the middle of the team, a group of young and beautiful women in new clothes are the most eye-catching. These are the newly married brides in Mojia village this year.


    "Young master, do you really want to come back today?" a beautiful bride in blue jumped.


    They just got married this year. Although they haven''t seen the most legendary young master of Mojia village, they are familiar with the deeds of Merton. In one year, Mojia village has changed from a poor village to the richest village around Chang''an city. The young master of Mojia village has made great contributions


    In the past, all the girls in Mojia village scoffed at them. However, when they married down to Mojia village, all the people in the village were envious. Let alone the rich bride price, anyone knows that Mojia village will be rich in the future. If their daughter marries in the past, she can become the help of her mother''s family.


    For them, the men in Mojia village adhere to the concept of Mohism, are modest and polite, and every man in Mojia village has a proper job, or a transportation team, a distillery, a steel plant... Even the son of the landlord may not have a better future than them.


    What makes them more excited is that every married bride has a new house, which is the best condition in man Datang. In the whole seven years of Zhenguan, there are more than 300 newlyweds in Mojia village, and most of the single problems in the village have been solved. This is the bottom line for Mojia village to stick to the 16-year-old marriage of women, otherwise it is not impossible to directly solve all the single problems.


    "According to the news from Chang''an City, the young master has made a schedule and will go home today." beside the bride in Tsing Yi, Yu Er looked at his wife with love and said that he was going to get married last year, but because Yu Er was injured in the fish Gang incident, he had to wait until this year.


    Yu Er secretly sighed that when the young master was about to enter Chang''an City, he also made a solemn promise in Mojia village that he would let them live a good life and everyone could marry a daughter-in-law. However, it was only more than a year, and the young master''s promise had been fulfilled.


    "Chang''an city!" the bride in Tsing Yi couldn''t help yearning. Although they were not far from Chang''an City, as a peasant woman, they didn''t have much chance to go to Chang''an city. The prosperity of Chang''an city is just word of mouth.


    The second fish smiled and said, "Chang''an city is only fifty miles away from Mojia village. Taking a carriage in the morning is enough to go back and forth. It''s not easy to go to Chang''an City in the future."


    "But I''m a woman''s family!" the bride in Tsing Yi hesitated.


    The second fish smiled and said, "there are not so many rules in Mojia village. After the spring, I''ll report you to a women''s night school. It''s impossible to have no knowledge in Mojia village."


    The bride in blue suddenly brightened her eyes and said in surprise, "can I go to school, too?"


    Fish two solemnly nodded and said, "this is the young master''s order. The young generation of Mojia village must be literate."


    Although the study is very hard, the young master''s orders of Mojia village have always been completed to the letter.


    This dialogue was repeated in front of newlyweds, and all the newlyweds looked forward to the young master of Mohism they had never met.


    "Here comes the carriage!" with a cry, almost all the people of Mohist village looked forward one after another.


    At the end of the brick road, a long motorcade came galloping. Merton was not the only one who came back this time, but also the girls of Mojia village who studied at the women''s Medical College, as well as the children of Mojia village in Chang''an city.


    It took more than a dozen four-wheel buses just to sit down.


    "Squeak!" four wheeled buses stopped beside the brick road.


    "Father, mother!"


    Young and beautiful girls got out of the car and rushed into their parents'' arms. Mojia village was immediately happy.


    In the middle of the motorcade, a four-wheel carriage was particularly conspicuous.


    "Young master!" as soon as Merton got out of the car, Li Yi led the children of the Mojia village to meet him.


    "Uncle Li has worked hard!"


    Merton was also filled with emotion. He seldom came back. The Mojia village was supported by Uncle Li.


    "Just come back, young master!" Li Yi said excitedly.


    Merton greeted a group of familiar people, and then led them to the next carriage. In front of the carriage, a thin and hale old man was standing with a smile.


    "Uncle Li, this is Han Fuzi, doctor of law of the National Academy of Sciences!" Merton stretched out his hand and said.


    Li Yi was shocked by the speech and suddenly looked up. He had heard from Merton before. He knew that this man was a great talent of the Legalists. It was Merton who took the boss''s effort to invite him to the Mojia village.


    "Welcome Han Fuzi to Mojia village!" Li Yi said with a unique handshake.


    Han Zheng smiled and said, "brother Li, you''re welcome."


    Seeing this, Li Yi immediately changed his mouth and said, "it''s the glory of Mojia village for brother han to come to Mojia village. Brother Han''s accommodation has already been prepared. He''s tired all the way. If he doesn''t have a rest first."


    Han Zheng laughed and said, "it doesn''t matter. The brick road of Mohist school is extremely flat and the four-wheel carriage is very comfortable. I just feel that I have arrived at Mohist village from Chang''an City after sitting for a while."


    It has to be said that the brick road and the four wheeled carriage are a perfect match. From then on, the long journey will no longer be a problem.


    Li Yi was immediately proud. Brick road and four-wheel carriage were indeed the greatest pride of Mojia village.


    "I first came to Mojia village, but I was curious about the famous Mojia village in Chang''an. I wanted to see it for a long time." Han Zheng couldn''t wait.


    Since he decided to come to Mojia village, he has done research on Mojia village for a long time. However, the more he studied, the more he felt that Mojia village was magical. Although everyone knew that Mojia village rose and Merton contributed greatly, the credit of Mojia village and the creativity of a small village shocked the whole Tang Dynasty.


    "That''s OK. If not, the students will take the teacher to visit Mojia village and wash the dust for the teacher later." Merton nodded.


    Merton and the three boarded a carriage and drove quickly towards the village.


    Watching Merton''s carriage leave, the brides suddenly lost.


    "That''s the young master. He''s so young!"


    "Yes, it''s not a few years older than my brother."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of brides, you say what I say.


    "Still very handsome!" a bride in red said playfully.


    "You''ve already married. You don''t have a chance! You still think about whether others are handsome or not!" the bride in Tsing Yi joked.


    "I have no chance, but there are still sisters in my family?" said the new woman in red.


    "There''s no chance. Young master is destined to marry a lady of the royal family. I don''t want to wait for these small families." said the new woman in Qingyi.


    She followed Yu Er, but she knew more about the young master''s marriage. Mohism is now taboo.

 Chapter 413

    "Mojia village is divided into four areas: residential area, commercial area, industrial area and R & D area." Li Yi sat on the carriage and introduced the situation of Mojia village to Han Zheng.


    After a brief conversation, the carriage came to the residential area.


    The residential area is directly divided into two parts by a brand-new brick road. In the south of the road are dilapidated mud embryo thatched houses, which are very common in the countryside. In the north of the road, there are rows of tall tile houses with brand-new green bricks and tiles. Even the rich households in Chang''an City are just like this, which is very spectacular and shocking. "


    Pointing to the new rows of tiled houses, Li Yi said proudly, "this is the new Mojia village. A year ago, there were old thatched houses in the south of the road. However, more than 400 new houses have been built in the village. According to the master''s plan, all the villagers will move to the new Mojia village within three years."


    Han Zheng nodded slightly. There are not a few rich businessmen in the world, but it is unique for thousands of people to get rich at the same time like mojiazi.


    "Merton has really done what very people can do," Han Zheng said with emotion


    Merton smiled shyly and said, "universal love is the first meaning of Mohism. The boy just follows the Mohist concept!"


    Han Zheng shook his head and said, "there are a lot of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but how many people in the world can really be the same as what they say." as a legalist, he is used to seeing too many people who want to get rich and few can keep their heart in front of money. There are so many villages in the world. Why is there only one Mohist village? Isn''t it more valuable for a Mohist village.


    "I heard that Merton once promised to let all the men in Mojia village marry a daughter-in-law?" Han Zheng joked.


    Merton''s face turned red and said, "the boy was crazy for a moment. Unexpectedly, it came to the teacher''s ears."


    Han zhengse shook his head and said, "marriage, funeral and marriage are the relationship between heaven and earth. This is the most important thing. How can it be crazy."


    Li Yi immediately looked at Han Zheng with appreciation and said, "brother Han, this is reasonable. From my point of view, the most proud thing in Mojia village is not the 400 new houses, but the 400 pairs of new people in the 400 new houses. This is the greatest wealth of Mojia village."


    "In this way, there will be successors of Mohism!" Han Zheng answered.


    Li Yi suddenly felt like a confidant. In today''s Mojia village, women in other villages scrambled to marry. This is what Li Yi is most proud of. Han Zheng can be said to have talked about his heart.


    "What''s that one?" Han Zheng was suddenly attracted by a building with unusual style and covering a huge area. Looking at Merton, he joked: "this shouldn''t be the ink house!"


    Merton smiled bitterly and said, "the master is joking. This is the school house in Mojia village."


    "School house?"


    Han Zheng suddenly looked at them strangely.


    Li Yi nodded and said, "yes, in Mojia village, the best houses have always been school houses."


    The carriage stopped quickly in front of the magnificent building. Sure enough, it said the first primary school of Mojia village.


    "A primary school is so big!" Han Zheng exclaimed. Looking at the area of Mojia village primary school, it is no less than the area of the Imperial College. "


    "Mojia village is implementing compulsory education, and all school-age children must enter school. In addition, the school also undertakes the responsibility of adult night school," Li Yi said.


    Han Zheng sighed: "the rise of Mohism is by no means a fluke."


    Even Chang''an city can''t match such an advanced education. In Han Zheng''s opinion, relying on the legacy of his ancestors is not a flash in the pan, as everyone guessed. On the contrary, a R & D department and a compulsory education are enough to support the prosperity of the village head of Mohism. It is absolutely right to choose Mohist cooperation.


    The carriage went on and saw rows of warehouses and stores standing proudly on both sides. Even near the end of the new year, there were still workers loading goods on the car.


    "This is a business district, an area where Mohist sub industries are traded, and a difficult problem in Mohist village. A large number of outsiders come to ask for money. It is inevitable that there will be a mixture of good and bad people, and there are many affairs. In the future, brother Han needs more help." of course, Li Yi knows the real reason why Merton asked Han Zheng to come, and he said at the moment.


    "What if the Mexican family clashed with outsiders?" Han Zheng asked solemnly.


    Li Yi secretly glanced at Merton and saw that Merton had no expression at all. He had to bite his teeth and said, "it''s natural to deal with it impartially, and even the children of the Mohists deal with it more seriously."


    Han Zheng laughed and said, "is that ok? Legalists do things according to law. Whoever makes a mistake to who naturally needs to be dealt with fairly."


    When he first came to Mojia village, in addition to the strong support of Merton, he naturally needed the support of powerful figures such as Li Yi.


    "Brother Lao Han has everything." Li Yi loosened his breath.


    To tell the truth, he was also annoyed by these common things, especially when he met the conflict between Mohist villagers and foreigners, but he was the most difficult to add in the middle. Now he packs all his troubles to Han Zheng, and he is naturally happy.


    Seeing that the two powerful figures in Mojia village reached an agreement in the future, Merton nodded with satisfaction: "the business district will continue to expand. In the future, more and more foreigners will come to Mojia village. Migrant workers should ensure the cost of food, clothing, housing and transportation."


    Li Yi nodded.


    Merton continued: "some outsiders come to bring their families, and the business district will set up a primary school to solve the problem of their children''s education."


    Li Yi hesitated and said, "is compulsory education still implemented?"


    Merton nodded and said, "it''s not compulsory, but it''s still free education. I promised Mr. Li to build a number of schools, starting from Mojia village."


    Han Zheng couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and said, "if Mojia village can be so fair, my future work will be much easier."


    Mojia village has not only achieved judicial fairness, but also educational fairness, which will make it impossible for outsiders to rise.


    "It''s inconvenient for merchants to come. Shopkeeper Zheng has complained many times about the poor inns in Mojia village! Build more inns." Merton ordered.


    Li Yi frowned and said, "but if so, I''m afraid the funds of Mojia village will be tight!"


    Merton took a deep breath and thought, "after the beginning of the year, Mojia village will be opened again, allowing other businessmen to buy land and build houses in the business district of Mojia village, and allowing businessmen to build their own inns and shops."


    Li Yi immediately asked, "didn''t the young master say that Mojia village no longer sells land?"


    Merton nodded: "Mojia village really won''t sell land. All businessmen who buy land sign contracts for a period of 45 years. After 45 years, the land will be returned to Mojia village."


    Li Yi frowned and said, "if so, I''m afraid it won''t cost much."


    Land sales in Datang are usually privately owned. As long as you buy it, it will be yours from generation to generation. However, Mojia village has only been sold for 45 years, which naturally has little attraction,


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "that''s not necessarily true, but the purpose of Mojia village is not to sell land to make money, but to attract foreign money into Mojia village. How much money does Mojia village have alone, and use the money of countless people in the Tang Dynasty to serve Mojia village. This is the way for the development of Mojia village."


    "Forty five years from now, the land will not only be worth the money, but the land will be sold only in the commercial area," Merton added.


    Han Zheng''s eyes suddenly flashed. Merton''s move is not only to take care of the present, but also to focus on the future. It is indeed the best policy.


    The carriage revolved around the business district. The new year is coming, and the business district is still very busy. The business district has shown signs of prosperity. I believe that after Merton allows foreign businessmen to enter the Mojia village, the Mojia village will surely usher in a big outbreak.

 Chapter 414

    "This is the R & D area!" Li Yi pointed to a heavily guarded fortress like building. Even if it was cold and approaching the new year, many Mohist village guards were still patrolling.


    "R & D area?" Han Zheng wondered. He could understand the names of other areas, but this R & D area must have been heard by the first.


    Merton explained: "the reason why Mohism can rise again is that the greatest hero is the ink technology left by the Mohist sages for thousands of years. However, how can Mohism sit idle? Mohism naturally needs to continue to study more ink technology on the basis of the sages."


    Han Zheng nodded happily. Such a vibrant Mohist school is indeed the best ally of Legalists.


    Li Yi took out a pair of presbyopia glasses and said, "brother Han doesn''t know anything. Take this Presbyopia mirror for example. Although glass technology is a secret technique to crack the secrets of the far western country, glass is just a rare thing in the far western country, but the Presbyopia mirror is an original creation of the Mohist school. Once this Presbyopia mirror was released, countless old people in the Tang Dynasty benefited immensely."


    Most of the Mohists are craftsmen. Naturally, the older the age, the higher the income. However, the older the age, the worse the eyes. Originally, Lao Zhang was ready to retire and passed the craft to his son. After having reading glasses, Lao Zhang immediately patted his chest and promised that he could work for ten years.


    Han Zheng nodded. After Merton developed reading glasses, he had sent him one at the first time. Naturally, he knew the benefits of reading glasses.


    The four wheeled carriage stopped at the door of the R & D department. There was a huge banner at the door saying, "non R & D personnel are not allowed to enter."


    "The Qu Yuan plow, artificial incubation technology, iron pot secret technology, four-wheel carriage, glass secret technology and so on in Mojia village are all developed here. The R & D department is the most confidential place in Mojia village, and even the old man can''t enter for no reason." Li Yi solemnly said.


    Han Zheng nodded solemnly. I''m afraid this is the guarantee for the future prosperity of Mohism.


    The strength of Mohism lies in the secret skills that are most beneficial to the Tang Dynasty. As long as the R & D department can continuously develop secret skills, the status of Mohism will be as stable as Mount Tai.


    Soon the door of the R & D department opened heavily. Lao Zhang, who heard the news, bowed and said, "I''ve seen you, young master."


    "Uncle Zhang has worked hard." Merton hurriedly got out of the car and raised Lao Zhang''s head. I''m afraid Lao Zhang''s head is the most indispensable in Mojia village. Some of Merton''s ideas can be realized without deduction. It can be said that Lao Zhang''s head is a great contribution to Mojia Village today.


    "The young master is going to inspect the R & D area today. We have been looking forward to the young master for too long." Lao Zhang said excitedly.


    In the R & D area, Merton is simply a myth. Every time it is the idea put forward by Merton. They only need to research and develop according to the direction. Each time the results come out, it will shock the whole Tang Dynasty, which makes the Mohist children in the R & D department have a great sense of satisfaction and more worship for the young master.


    Seeing this, Merton had to nod and turn his head. North and South Korea were inviting him and said, "master, if you don''t take this opportunity today, I''ll visit the R & D department."


    Han zhengshuang said, "it''s a great honor for Han to see the masterpiece of a great Mohist craftsman."


    The R & D area can best represent the future of Mojia village. Han Zheng will not miss this opportunity.


    Under the leadership of Lao Zhang tou, a group of people filed into the R & D area. They had just entered it. They saw two Mohist children driving two strong cattle constantly turning the winch, and a huge stone gate fell down.


    Lao Zhang said proudly, "this is the broken dragon stone. Once the noose is put down, no brute force can open it."


    Han Zheng reached out and touched the heavy broken dragon stone. A heavy and cold feeling immediately rushed to his heart. He couldn''t help sighing: "the most luxurious place in Mojia village is the school, and the safest place is the R & D area. It''s really an eye opener for me!"


    In other villages, I''m afraid these two places are only one place, that is, Houfu. However, Mojia village does the opposite, which has to be admired.


    Merton Hao Ran said, "I''m flattered. The Mojia village is not far from Chang''an city. In fact, it''s at the foot of the emperor. There''s nothing to prevent. In addition, the guards of the Mojia village patrol day and night. It''s safe and natural. As for the Hou house, the boy doesn''t come back a few times a year. The Hou house is idle. You just need to take care of it regularly. Where does it need to be renovated and rebuilt?"


    Han Zheng shook his head and said, "everyone knows the truth, but how many people really do it."


    "Boom!"


    At this time, a huge sound suddenly attracted everyone''s attention. I saw a strong young man sitting there with a sad face. In front of him, a carriage full of goods almost fell apart.


    Lao Zhang looked at the young man and said, "this is dog Zhang Mu. What he developed is a jack."


    "Jack!" Han Zheng wondered.


    Merton explained: "if ordinary carriages are damaged, we just need to lift them up for repair, but some carriages loaded with goods are very heavy. If the goods are unloaded and loaded again, it will take time and effort. This jack can lift a kilogram of weight by only one person, and the repair can be completed easily."


    Han Zheng opened his mouth and didn''t dare to set the channel: "one person can lift a kilogram of weight."


    When Zhang Mu saw Merton, he was ashamed and said, "young master, most of the jack has been completed, but at present, he can only lift a kilogram. However, when he put it down, he can''t control the speed. I''m afraid it will damage the carriage."


    "You can lift a thousand catties." Han Zheng was stunned:


    Merton came forward, looked at the structural drawing of a wooden jack, looked at the iron pimple under his feet, and said in his heart, "if you use a hydraulic device, it can not only increase the weight of weight lifting, but also put the weight back to the ground at a uniform speed while releasing the liquid."


    Zhang Mu immediately brightened his eyes and hurriedly wrote and drew on the drawing. He didn''t even care about Merton.


    Merton didn''t think so and motioned the public not to disturb him.


    Soon, under the leadership of Lao Zhang tou, Han Zheng saw a lot of fantastic ideas. People kept studying in the R & D department. It is conceivable that once every project here is successful, it will benefit countless people all over the world.


    "Young master, this way, please!"


    Led by Lao Zhang tou, the four came to an iron fence.


    Lao Zhang opened the iron fence, exposed a space the size of a square table, and took the lead in.


    "Master, please, we are going to the most confidential place in Mojia village!" Merton stretched out his hand and invited.


    Although Han Zheng was puzzled that there was no way ahead, he entered according to his words. After the four entered, Lao Zhang clapped his head, closed all the iron fences, stretched out his hand and pulled a rope next to him. After a crisp bell.


    Han Zheng felt that his feet were empty and his body sank. Han Zheng felt shocked that they sank underground.


    Merton smiled and said, "this is an idea of Mohism, automatic elevator."


    "People don''t move the escalator. The Mohist school is really unique." Han Zheng nodded.


    Li Yi frowned and said, "isn''t it more convenient to use the ladder."


    Merton smiled and explained: "Uncle Li doesn''t know. This escalator is the idea of Mohism in the future. The population of Chang''an city must be more and more, but the land of Chang''an city is very limited. If one day, the land of Chang''an city is not enough to accommodate the people to survive, then we have to develop higher. Now there are three and four storey buildings next to Zhuque Avenue. But if we want to build ten floors in the future What about the 20th floor? Isn''t it tiring to use the ladder? This escalator will be of great use at that time. "


    All of a sudden,


    Lao Zhang was satisfied and said, "but now it is very appropriate to use it as a security protection for the R & D area. If outsiders come in, I''m afraid they can''t enter the most confidential place in our Mojia village."


    However, after more than a decade of rest, the elevator had fallen to the ground. Waiting for the elevator to stop steadily, Lao Zhang opened the iron fence and found that there was no cave underground.


    "This is the core area of the R & D department. The grinding of diamonds, the production of reading glasses and the experiment of Mohist secret skills are all realized underground," Lao Zhang said excitedly.


    When they looked around, they saw a busy scene in the underground space. About 40 or 50 Mohist children were busy. One by one, the old flower lenses were picked up by the Mohist children and cut with broken diamonds. The number was so large that people couldn''t help smacking their tongue.


    When Han Zheng and his party walked out of the R & D area, Han Zheng looked back at the heavily guarded R & D area and said in his heart, "I''m afraid this is the most important place of Datang. This is not only the future of Mojia village, but also the future of Datang."

 Chapter 415

    "Next, I''m going to the industrial zone of Mojia village." after leaving the R & D area, Li Yi said to Han Zheng with a happy face.


    If the R & D zone is the future of Mojia village, and it is the famous industrial zone that really casts the glory of Mojia village. It is the industrial zone that enables Mojia village to make progress every day.


    "Industrial zone!" Han Zheng nodded.


    For the industrial zone of Mojia village, the whole Chang''an City has heard of a stable four-wheel carriage! The best wine in the world! Extremely hard steel Which one is what everyone in Chang''an city likes to talk about.


    However, just entering the industrial zone, a huge building has firmly attracted Han Zheng''s attention.


    Li Yi offered a treasure and said, "this is the granary of Mojia village. According to the young master''s instructions, the grain in the granary must be enough to support the use of Mojia village for three years."


    Although Li Yixiang came from poverty, he still couldn''t get rid of the thinking of small families. In his thinking, he measured whether a family was rich by how bright their clothes were. No, it was a granary to visit their home.


    Mojia village has such a large granary, which is enough to ensure that Mojia village will be carefree for three years under the condition of no grain. What a huge wealth it will be. No matter how much money Mojia village has saved, he doesn''t care. Instead, he visits the granary every day, which immediately makes him use endless confidence and confidence.


    Just imagine, in the whole Tang Dynasty, in addition to the granary of the imperial court, which family has more food than Mojia village. Even Li Yi, a big grain merchant in Chang''an City, thinks he is not inferior.


    "It''s really magnificent." Han Zheng took a deep breath. It''s unheard of for a village to store so much food.


    "Mojia village is poor and afraid. Please don''t laugh at me." Merton smiled bitterly at Han Zheng.


    The large-scale purchase of grain by Mojia village made the grain merchants in Chang''an City shout wolf, but the result surprised the grain merchants. Mojia village saved all the grain without any meaning of selling, and was laughed at by the grain merchants in Chang''an city.


    Han Zheng solemnly said, "there is grain at home. Don''t panic. This granary is the Dinghai God needle of Mojia village!"


    Food, clothing and housing come first. In Han Zheng''s opinion, only with this granary in Mojia village can we ensure that Mojia village has no worries in the future.


    "The food of the foreign population is also included?" Han Zheng suddenly thought and turned to ask.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, not only that, but even there are many reserved places around the granary. In the future, the population of Mojia village will increase, and the scale of the granary will naturally expand."


    "This is a long-term plan." Han Zheng said happily.


    Next to the granary is the winery for relieving Qianchou. Before the carriage is near, there is an intoxicating smell of wine. It is worth mentioning that although there are many grains stored in Mojia village, they are not sold to the villagers of Mojia village, but preserved as reserve grains, and provide a steady stream of raw materials for relieving Qianchou.


    "It''s the best wine in the world to relieve thousands of worries in Mojia village! Brother Han will have a good mouth in the future." Li Yihao said in stride.


    Jieqianchou is the winery of Mojia village. Naturally, it will not treat its own people badly. Of course, there is no limit for Mojia village people to buy wine themselves, and it is important for senior management every year. You can''t finish rationing alone.


    Han Zheng said with a wry smile, "I''m very drunk."


    He is old and competitive. Naturally, he is unable to drink.


    "That''s all right. I happen to have a medicinal wine prepared by brother Hua in my house to dredge muscles and bones, activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis. I sing a few cups every day to keep you and prolong your life. I''ll give some to brother Han at that time."


    Han Zhengsheng was so upset that he had to accept it happily and said, "I''m ashamed of the medicinal wine prepared by doctor Hua."


    At present, Huayuan and Sun Simiao are still famous doctors in Chang''an city. The internal medicine and surgery complement each other, which is a perfect match. Han Zheng is no stranger to them. The medicinal wine prepared by Chinese doctors is naturally valuable.


    Bypassing the wine shop for relieving thousands of worries, there are a large number of warehouses on both sides of the brick road. A large number of wood and stone materials are piled up. Such a large inventory is amazing. You know, these represent wealth.


    "This is the storehouse of Mojia village, which is enough to support the cost of Mojia village for three months, and even some scarce materials for at least one year. Even if there are problems, it is enough to ensure the normal operation of Mojia village in a short time." Li Yi pointed to the storehouses and said.


    Merton nodded and said, "be prepared. Don''t be afraid to occupy money."


    In Merton''s view, gold, silver and copper money can''t be eaten or used. Food materials are the real wealth. Owning too much gold, silver and money will bring disaster to Mojia village. Owning food materials not only reassures the world about Mojia, but also the root of the prosperity of Mojia village.


    "The next step is the foundation of the real strength of Mojia village." Merton pointed to a forward solemn introduction to Han Zheng.


    Han Zhengshun fixed his eyes in the direction of Merton''s fingers. He saw a huge chimney towering. Even at the end of the year, it was still billowing with thick smoke.


    "This is the steelmaking workshop in Mojia village, and 60% of the iron and steel of the whole Tang Dynasty comes from Mojia village." Merton said proudly.


    The steel output of other workshops is too low, time-consuming and laborious, and the quality of steel can not be guaranteed. The steel output rate of Mojia village, which has the secret technology of blast furnace steelmaking, is almost 100%, and the quality of steel is the same. It can be said that it is the most popular steel in Chang''an city.


    "So, the future of Mojia village is mainly steel." Han Zheng raised his eyebrows.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "from the perspective of students, there are two indispensable things, one is grain and the other is steel. With these two things, everything will be easy to do."


    Han Zheng wondered, "what''s the solution?"


    Merton looked at the chimney that polluted the air of Datang and said: "The country is based on the people, and food is the most important thing for the people. Food is the foundation of a country''s stability, and for industry, steel is the food of industry. For a country, people have no worries about food and clothing. It can only be said that the country is rich, but what really makes the country strong is steel. Whether a country is strong depends on whether the armor of soldiers is hard and whether the weapons of soldiers are sharp In peacetime, steel can be used to build cars and farm tools, which are the foundation of a powerful country. "


    "The foundation of the country, only farming and only war."


    Merton''s iron and steel theory makes Han zhengruo think. Legalists have always emphasized farming and war. In this way, it almost coincides with the Mohist school.


    Han Zheng immediately lamented that Mojia village, which has steel and grain, will have no short board, just waiting to soar.


    The carriage began to go back and forth. Han Zheng''s mood could not be calm for a long time. The era of legalism has passed. Now the power is weak to the extreme, which is almost the same as that of Mojia village.


    When Merton invited him to Mojia village, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity for Legalists. Merton''s proposal for judicial independence certainly moved him, but today''s trip to Mojia village really made him realize how wise his previous decision was.


    I''m afraid the future of legalism lies in this Mojia village.

 Chapter 416

    With the sound of gongs and drums, the seventh year of Zhenguan came to the last day, new year''s Eve.


    The children of Mojia village also have a rare leisure time. Like Chang''an City, the annual leave of Mojia village is also seven days.


    For a whole year, the whole Mojia village was running at a high speed. All the Mohist children have been busy for a year, and finally it''s time for them to harvest.


    In the old residential area of Mojia village, many dilapidated houses have been demolished, forming a 200 step open space. In the center of the open space, a huge Mozi statue is located, all around are paved with bricks, neat and generous, and huge trees stand proudly. This is the landmark Mozi square of Mojia Village.


    Mozi square is the favorite place for Mohist villagers. On the one hand, it is a place where they have lived for decades, which is very nostalgic. On the other hand, it is a rare place to rest and worship Mohist saints.


    In the center of Mozi square, except for the village guards on duty, all the villagers of Mojia village are concentrated here. Everyone looks happy and radiant.


    Because today is the day when Mojia village pays dividends,


    "This year''s collective dividend in Mojia village has always been money per person!".


    When Li Yi shouted out the number of dividends in Mojia village this year, almost everyone called.


    The income of Mojia village is divided into two types: one is the salary of their usual work, and the other is dividends.


    Their salary is their own labor income. When they receive it, they have no waves in their hearts, but the dividend is not. As long as the dividend is paid, they can feel that they are the master of Mojia village.


    Last year, the dividend of Mojia village was only 100 Wen per person, but this year it has suddenly increased ten times. Coupled with their ordinary salary, it is enough to make them live a much richer life than other villages. The salary of personnel in the R & D area such as Zhang Mu is frighteningly high. The dividend is a little money for him, but even if he pays more at ordinary times, There is no money to satisfy him today.


    All the villagers of Mojia village lined up in an orderly way to receive the dividend, and everyone smiled happily. In particular, this year''s new bride''s exclamation was the most eye-catching. As usual, all the brides who joined Mojia village enjoy the right to dividend. Money is always a great wealth for an ordinary woman.


    Years later, when they returned to their mother''s house, if they told them that they had received consistent money just after they married into Mojia village, they would certainly envy the whole village. You know, few ordinary farmers have more than consistent money.


    "Dividends!"


    Han Zheng heard the word for the first time. The more he thought about it, the more meaningful it was. In Datang, both merchants and landlords are extremely benevolent and righteous if they pay long-term workers on time, while Mojia village is unique. It is said that there is a year-end dividend at the same time of paying wages.


    Merton said with a smile: "the Mohist school is not the Mohist School of one person, but the Mohist School of all people. Everyone in the Mohist village is the master. Only the division of labor is different, and there is no distinction between higher and lower status. Since the Mohist village makes money, its wealth should naturally be returned to all the villagers."


    "Shang Tong!" Han Zheng took a deep breath and nodded. At the same time, he was a little more aware of the concept of Mohism.


    The landlords and dignitaries in other villages try their best to squeeze the villagers, where they will be willing to share their money with the villagers. Merton''s move immediately gives all the villagers the deepest sense of belonging. At the same time, he can see that the new wives married in the village are treated equally. I''m afraid this is also a way to attract talents. In this way, I''m afraid more and more excellent women will marry into Mojia village.


    After the dividend, it was still the time for the newly married couple in Mojia village to return gifts to all the villagers. This year, more than 300 new couples were born in Mojia village, all of whom were assigned new houses. According to last year''s practice, the new couples would return a pig for all the villagers to share.


    However, there are so many new people this year that more than 300 pigs can''t be eaten in Mojia village, so many new people have a little discussion and replaced them with other meat, cattle, sheep, fish... Almost all kinds of meat.


    Mo Fu.


    Next to a huge round table, rows of rich plates were placed, and suddenly the whole ink house was full of fragrance.


    "This year''s new year''s Eve banquet seems to be very rich!"


    With a clear voice, three figures came in from the. They saw that it was master fish, Hua Yuan and master Li who came back from Chang''an city.


    "Brother Hua, brother Li, brother Yu!" Li Yi got up and greeted him.


    "Chang''an city is busy with mundane affairs. Please forgive me for coming too late." Hua Yuan pleaded guilty again and again.


    Hua Yuan had almost no time to rest in Mo hospital, but he entrusted it to Sun Simiao temporarily, and then he got away.


    At the end of the year, the business of yuzhuangyuan building was the hottest. The fish master didn''t officially close down until today. Mr. Li has been making trouble with his master''s college. If he hadn''t participated in the round table, I''m afraid he''d like to live in Quchi square all the time.


    "There''s nothing trivial for a doctor. It''s valuable for brother Hua to come back." Li Yi shook his head.


    Then came one armed Uncle Wang, who was in charge of the Mohist village guard, and Li Xin, who was in charge of the transport team. Lao Zhang came in one after another. Merton, who finally came in, accompanied shopkeeper Xu and Han Zheng with his leader Fu Botian.


    After the greetings, Merton nodded and said, "since everyone has arrived, please take your seats!"


    Merton waved his hand and everyone sat down.


    Merton didn''t sit down with the people, but looked around and said, "today is new year''s Eve, a rare day for happy gathering. At the same time, there is good news to tell you that our Mojia village has joined two talents. The first is the familiar Xu Jiexu cabinet."


    "Welcome, welcome!" Li Yi and others said repeatedly.


    Xu Jie joined Mojia village for only half a year, but his contribution is obvious to all. Xu Jie has made great contributions to the rapid development of Mojia village.


    Xu Jie stood up excitedly and said, "please take care of me in the future!"


    The round table meeting in Mojia village is the power center of Mojia village. Xu Jie, an outsider, can attend the round table meeting. It can be seen that Merton''s trust in him immediately makes him feel that scholars die for their confidants.


    Merton turned his head to Han Zheng, who was calm and light, and said, "the second is the great sage of the Legalists and the law Master of the boy, Han Zheng and Han Zheng."


    Everyone was shocked. They all knew Merton''s intention to invite Han Zheng. This person must be a powerful figure in Mojia village in the future.


    "Han Zheng has seen you!" Han Zheng solemnly stood up and said.


    "Brother Han, you''re welcome." although they are not familiar with Han Zheng, they are still very warm.


    In this meeting, although two new people were added, the number has not changed. Ziyi and the newly married fish were replaced by Xu Jie and Han Zheng.


    Ziyi was too young. At that time, it was just to gather the number of people. The business of Yu Er and Yu Shifu overlapped. Uncle Yu can be alone. The vacant position can be arranged for Xu Jie and Han Zheng.


    Everyone looked at each other and understood that all of you here are probably the mainstays of Mojia village for a long time in the future.


    "The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. It is rare for Mojia village to usher in a bumper harvest year. You enjoy delicious food first, and I''ll discuss it later." Merton laughed.


    "That''s a good feeling. We''ve been busy for a year, so it''s time to have a peace of mind." Li Yi smiled. Such a rich dinner would have been unthinkable if it had been put in the previous Mojia village. The days of poverty and suffering are gone, and Li Yi is still like a dream.


    Many old people who have lived through the hardships of Mojia village are also filled with emotion.


    The people started one after another and enjoyed their harvest food with peace of mind.


    At the same time, the whole Mojia village is also a feast and carnival. Every family is full of fragrance and laughter, just like a paradise on earth.

 Chapter 417

    After the feast, the cups and plates were removed.


    The people suddenly looked positive, and the round table meeting of Mojia village was about to begin.


    The round table of Mojia village is well-known in Chang''an city. After the round table came out from Mojia village, it was immediately followed by the people in Chang''an city. It is widely said that the development of Mojia village is like a great development. Last year''s round table contributed greatly, which added a few mysterious colors to the round table.


    Xu Jie was sitting precariously, his heart was slightly excited and did not squint.


    However, Han Zheng is constantly looking at the core figures in the Mojia village. Among other families, most of them are adults and the elderly, but in the Mojia village, they are a combination of the old, the middle-aged and the young. Fu Bo, Li Yi, Lao Zhang, is an older generation, and Yu Uncle Xu Jie is a little middle-aged, especially tie an, Li Xin and other young faces, Not to mention Merton, a 16-year-old young master, no one can imagine that these people have created the miracle of Mojia village.


    Merton looked at the crowd with satisfaction and nodded: "it''s a great contribution to the success of Mojia village today. All departments should report the situation! Let others know the current situation of Mojia village."


    When Merton finished, all the people suddenly showed a proud smile. In their fields, which is not the top field of Datang.


    "The transport team has expanded to nearly 100 carriages..."


    "Mohist village guards have arrested more than ten people who stole Mohist secrets and have been handed over to the government..."


    "Mohist Food City..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After everyone told them one by one, Merton immediately sighed that before he knew it, Mojia village had developed to this point.


    Han Zheng and Xu Jie also understood the real strength of Mojia village in an all-round way for the first time. They couldn''t help being shocked and smacking their tongue. With the strength of one village, they achieved such an achievement, which is unprecedented. I''m afraid only some centuries old families have such a scale, but Mojia village has achieved it in a short time.


    Merton nodded and first said to one armed Uncle Wang: "after next year, a large number of workers will be recruited in Mojia village, and a large number of foreign population will flow into Mojia village, which will certainly cause some chaos, and the village guards of Mojia village need to continue to increase!"


    One armed Uncle Wang immediately frowned and said, "but these children in Mojia village are restless. They all want to go out and wander. Not many are willing to serve as village guards!"


    One armed Uncle Wang was very distressed. At the beginning, the village guards of Mojia village were very popular and were willing to participate in a large number of participants. However, with the increase of Mojia children going to Chang''an City, many left behind Mojia children yearned for the prosperity of Chang''an City and asked for external transfer.


    Merton was very funny and said, "then improve the treatment of village guards and increase the threshold for going to Chang''an city. Only those who graduate from night school can be arranged to Chang''an city."


    One armed Uncle Wang nodded. Although those village guards danced so happily, I''m afraid there are few who can bear to go to night school.


    "At the same time, we can also recruit some people from other villages to join the village guard." Merton thought for a while and said helplessly.


    "People from other villages?" Lao Zhang objected. "There are a lot of secrets in Mojia village. If so, I''m afraid it''s inappropriate for people from other villages to join!"


    Merton said, "the people you join are naturally some good family members in the neighboring village. When selecting people, you must know the roots and know the bottom. Having a family is a priority. Those with bad deeds would rather be absent than excessive."


    Lao Zhang nodded reassuringly. The R & D area he is responsible for is the top priority of Mohism. Naturally, it should be kept strictly confidential.


    Li Yilang said, "don''t worry, young master. All villages within a radius of ten miles are familiar with Mojia village. We know who can use it and who can''t use it."


    Merton nodded: "in the future, the village guard is only responsible for patrolling and guarding the Mojia village. In case of disputes, the village guard will now control people and hand over all the records to Han Fuzi for ruling. All the results will be subject to Han Fuzi''s ruling."


    As soon as Han Zheng''s eyes brightened, he couldn''t help looking at Merton. Law enforcement power and judicial power were separated. In this way, corruption was eliminated to a great extent.


    "There will be brother Lao Han in the future." one armed Uncle Wang looked at Han Zheng with a kind smile.


    Han Zheng replied, "brother Wang, you''re welcome, but I have a few suggestions about the village guard. I wonder if you can put forward them."


    "Mr. Han, please speak." Merton raised his hand.


    Han Zheng solemnly said: "from my point of view, although recruiting people from neighboring villages is a good son, we can''t help but guard against it. First, people from other villages join the village guard. People from the same village can''t be divided into a team. The more scattered the village guards, the better."


    People''s eyes can''t help but brighten. At this time, they are most close to the village party. If everyone in a team comes from different villages, they naturally put an end to the phenomenon of mutual hugging.


    "Brother Han''s words are very kind!" Master Li couldn''t help praising him.


    "Second, the new village guard should only be responsible for the commercial area and residential area, and the head and deputy leaders must be from Mojia village, and all confidential places such as R & D area, granary and steelmaking workshop must use the people of the village." Han Zheng continued. He is a legalist, and he is very familiar with these policies for governing the people. And when he first joined Mojia village, he naturally had to show his strength to prove himself.


    The crowd nodded again and again.


    "Third, even for the village guards in other villages, it''s best to rotate a batch every few years. The ability of these village guards may not be less than the chief and deputy team leaders, but they can only live under people for a long time, and they will have different hearts over time." Han Zheng''s last sentence can be said to be a word of remorse, which immediately made everyone silent.


    Confucianism and Mohism attach most importance to benevolence, righteousness and morality, and believe that human nature is good, while Legalists mostly believe that human nature is evil. All people in the world are selfish, and people can only be driven by interests. Although Han Zheng''s words are not impossible, they still make people very uncomfortable.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "in that case, when hiring the external village guards, sign the contract in advance. For every additional year, in addition to the salary, there will be a reward accumulation, which is limited to five years. When the contract ends after five years, the external village guards can go home to buy land or do business with rich reward. If they do evil, they can drive the Mojia village away immediately."


    Merton''s move refers to the Veterans'' fees for joining the army in future generations. I believe that the temptation of this interest will surely bring back those external village guards.


    Han Zheng could not help nodding with satisfaction. Mo Cun''s move is indeed in line with the essence of Legalism and drives people''s hearts with interests, so as to prevent trouble.


    When Merton solved the village guard problem, he couldn''t help looking at Han Zheng with appreciation. It''s really right to invite Han Zheng to come. Relying on these three alone, we can solve many hidden dangers in Mojia village.


    "Uncle Li, immediately after the Spring Festival, build a courtyard for Han Fuzi as Han Fuzi''s office, which is specially responsible for handling disputes in Mojia village." Merton said to Li Yi.


    "Don''t worry, young master. It''s on me." Li Yi patted his chest and promised.


    "Since Han Fuzi is a legalist, what if this courtyard is not named court?" Merton showed a trace of cunning.


    "Court?" Han Zheng''s eyes lit up and shouted.


    court! After thousands of years of decline, Legalists finally have their own independent space. Although it is still very weak, it is only a corner and depends on others, Han Zheng believes that in the future, such an independent court will be able to spread all over the whole Tang Dynasty and become the holy land of Legalists.

 Chapter 418

    Merton arched his hand at Han Zheng and said, "in Mojia village, the court has two purposes, one is to deal with disputes within Mojia village, and the other is to solve disputes outside Mojia village."


    "External disputes!" Han Zheng immediately frowned. The reason why he was willing to come to Mojia village was that Merton promised independent judicial power, but he didn''t want Legalists to become Mojia thugs.


    When Morton saw this, he immediately understood Han Zheng''s mind and quickly explained, "master, don''t misunderstand. Boy means that the court is responsible for checking the entrance of Mojia village. The contracts signed by Mojia village conform to the laws of the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, he popularizes law knowledge for Mojia children, so that they can understand the law, abide by the law, and even use the law."


    Han Zheng stood up and shouted, "what a person who understands, understands, abides by and uses the law. These eight characters are deeply rooted in the essence of Legalists."


    In his opinion, these eight words are comparable to Merton''s 16 words of judicial independence. Most ordinary people don''t even know a big character, let alone understand the law. Sometimes they don''t even know that they break the law, let alone abide by the law, or defend themselves with the law.


    In his opinion, Confucianism''s pursuit of fool''s education is probably the biggest obstacle to legalism. How many people in the whole Tang Dynasty can really read the laws of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid only Mojia village, which pursues compulsory education and night schools, is the best place to publicize law popularization.


    "This is what I should do." Han Zheng said with a slight slowing of his face.


    "Of course, if the children of the Mohists have a lawsuit outside, I''m afraid they need Legalists to defend the Mohist village." Merton paused and added, "of course, it''s within the scope allowed by the law of the Tang Dynasty."


    Han Zheng solemnly promised: "it''s natural. Since I''m in the Mohist village, I won''t sit back and watch the Mohist children suffer injustice, but I''m afraid I''m too weak because I have only one person!"


    Merton smiled. He knew that this was Han Zhengzheng''s important person, and said in the slightest Indifference: "Since Mojia village promises that the Legalists will independently rule on the affairs of Mojia village, it will not interfere with the internal affairs of the court. If Mr. Han has other like-minded people, please come. If not, it doesn''t matter. Quchi square master''s college and medical college in Chang''an city are being built. I wonder if Mr. Han is willing to be a neighbor with them."


    Han Zheng was ecstatic and said, "what do you mean?"


    "Mohists can build a law school in Quchi square. Anyway, it''s just to build more schools." Merton said quietly.


    "Welcome brother han to join Quchi square." Hua Yuan warmly invited him.


    Master Li smiled bitterly when he heard the speech. That''s what Merton told him at that time. As a result, he suddenly fell into it.


    "Law school!" Han Zheng immediately trembled with excitement. So far, there is only Guozijian, which teaches law in the whole Tang Dynasty, and there are few law talents trained in a year. If Legalists have their own college and train Legalists, Han Zheng can''t help himself at the thought of this phenomenon.


    "But even if you study the law, what''s the use of not being able to enter officialdom? How many people are willing to study the boring law." Han Zheng suffers from Taoism.


    Merton shook his head and said, "master, this is wrong. Even if you don''t enter officialdom, learning law still has broad uses. Not to mention that most people don''t understand the law and don''t know the law, so when they fight a lawsuit, they are confused and often lose in a mess, but what if someone helps them fight a lawsuit?"


    Han Zheng frowned and said, "you are saying that all the students trained by the college are litigants."


    Litigants are the contempt of Datang for some people who help people to bring a lawsuit. Usually, these people are often not welcomed by the county government, and they often pit the plaintiff and the defendant, which has a very bad reputation.


    Merton shook his head and said, "how can those litigants be real Legalists? What the law school has trained is real Legalists. They can use the law of the Tang Dynasty to truly redress the grievances and bring the evil to justice. At the same time, they can also supervise the officials to corrupt and pervert the law and misinterpret the law."


    The more Merton says, the brighter Han Zheng''s eyes are. Some officials bend the law for personal gain, relying on the people''s ignorance of the law. If someone understands the law, I''m afraid no arrogant person dare to bend the law openly. If a legalist who is proficient in the law is on the side of the wronged, he must use the law to get justice for the wronged.


    "In addition, some big businessmen may also need these people who are proficient in the law. Far from it, take shopkeeper Xu Jieshi for example. If there were people proficient in the law around him in those years, it would not be a complete failure in a short time." Merton pointed to Xu Jie.


    In those years, Xu Jie was oppressed by the king''s family. More importantly, he was caught in the trap of the contract. He was also extremely passive in the law. Only then did he succeed by the king''s family.


    Xu Jie said with a bitter smile, "if I could go back to the past, I would like to invite ten litigants to draft the contract in case I repeat it."


    "Other students can''t guarantee that if the law school trains legalist talents, Mojia village will guarantee all employment in the previous periods." Merton patted his chest and said.


    With the increasing number of things in Mohist village, various disputes must continue in the future, and Mohist''s status is embarrassing. In the future, there will be no lack of cold shots and hidden arrows. Merton has long had the idea of establishing a lawyer group for later generations


    Han Zheng thought in his heart that the more he thought about it, the more feasible it would be. If Mojia village took the lead in using Legalists, Legalists might be able to go another way.


    "In addition, students believe that the reason why Legalists are not popular is also related to legalist music and high and low. People don''t understand the law, which doesn''t mean that people don''t need the law. Why can''t Legalists take the initiative to publicize legalist thought?" Merton said.


    "Active propaganda?" Han Zheng was stunned. Legalists have always been relying on the power of the emperor to implement the law from top to bottom, and never thought of spreading Legalists from bottom to top.


    Merton nodded: "the distribution scope of Ink magazine has spread to Luoyang along with brick road. The circulation of each magazine has exceeded 50000 copies, and I''m afraid the number of readers will be several times this. I don''t know whether Han Fuzi is willing to open up a legal column in Ink magazine. He specially popularizes some classic cases and Legalist knowledge for the people of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Legal column!" Han Zheng breathed suddenly, and Merton''s move could be said to be very tempting.


    "Mo magazine welcomes brother han to join us." Master Li said that with Han Zheng''s participation, the audience and readability of Mo magazine will be greatly improved, which will be of great benefit to Mo magazine.


    Han Zheng narrowed his eyes, looked at Master Li sharply and said, "it''s better to join the ink magazine. I don''t know if brother Li has the courage to publish some unjust, false and wrong cases."


    Master Li is called a strange Confucian. Isn''t it precisely because of his bold behavior that he immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "why don''t you dare? It''s my lifelong wish to ask for orders for the people."


    They looked at each other and laughed loudly at the same time.


    Merton smiled bitterly. One was bold and the other was jealous of evil. Merton really didn''t know that something would happen if they worked together.

 Chapter 419

    After settling down with the Legalists, Merton turned his eyes to Li Xin,


    "Young master!" Li Xin immediately sat in a precarious mood. Li Xin is in charge of the transportation department of Mojia village. From the original fish transportation team, Li Xin''s transportation team is busy in the transportation and shipment of some materials in Mojia village.


    "The transport team has done well this year, but it is still not enough." Merton''s first sentence made Li Xin sink in his heart. "With the full supply of cars and horses, the scale of the transport team is now only limited to the two lines from Mojia village to Chang''an City and from Chang''an City to Luoyang, which are a little afraid of the head and the tail."


    "What the young master taught me is!" Li Xin bowed his head and said.


    "In fact, Li Xinwei is not afraid of the head and the tail, but the goods of Mojia village. After arriving in Luoyang City, most of them are mainly canals. The transportation team is arranging canals. Once it is successful, it will certainly be able to market the products of Mojia village to the north and south of the river." Xu Jie excused Li Xin.


    When it comes to the layout of the Grand Canal, Li Xin suddenly showed a proud smile. The role of the Grand Canal is well known all over the world. There is a continuous flow of goods from north to south in one day. It can be said that it is extremely busy. Once the transportation team of Mojia village arranges the whole Grand Canal, the benefits are self-evident.


    Many Mohist villagers immediately showed a satisfied smile. They couldn''t help looking at Li Xin, especially Li Yi, and immediately looked at their son with a happy face.


    However, Merton''s face sank and commented, "putting the cart before the horse."


    Suddenly, Li Xin''s proud face was like pouring a basin of cold water, and suddenly collapsed.


    Everyone also looked at Merton in surprise. Needless to say, the importance of the Grand Canal is well known all over the world. Li Xin is not wrong in doing so! Why don''t you blame me instead of winning the prize.


    Among the people, only Han zhengruo thought, but when he first arrived in Mojia village, he naturally wouldn''t comment on some things.


    Morton hated the iron and said, "the Mojia village started with a four-wheel carriage, and the carriage and horse are the advantages of the Mojia village. You don''t use the advantages of the Mojia village, but go to layout the Grand Canal. It''s not putting the cart before the horse. What is it? Are we familiar with ships and able to operate boats?"


    Li Xin immediately lowered his head, and everyone was silent.


    "Besides, Cao gangs are everywhere on both sides of the Grand Canal. They have been operating for more than ten years and are deeply rooted. If Mojia village rashly joins in, how can it benefit!" Merton shouted.


    Li Xin suddenly realized it and said with a ashamed face, "young master, Li Xin knows his mistake."


    Now he recalls that when he laid out the Grand Canal, he was faced with many difficulties and repeated difficulties, which was not the boycott of the Cao Gang on both sides of the Strait.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "immediately withdraw all the layout of the Grand Canal. If the products of Mojia village want to go through the Grand Canal in the future, they will be subcontracted to Cao Gang for transportation."


    "Yes!"


    Li Xin suddenly felt a pity. It was a pity that the Grand Canal connecting the north and South gave up in this way.


    "There is no pity!" Murton snorted coldly. "The Grand Canal is indeed important, but it is not irreplaceable."


    "Did the young master say it was a brick road?" Xu Jie suddenly said.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, although the waterway has a large carrying capacity, it''s ok if it goes downstream. Once it goes upstream, it can only rely on the power of the trackers. After the brick road is built, the advantages of the four-wheel carriage are undoubtedly obvious, and the transportation will be mainly land in the future."


    Everyone nodded deeply. Anyone can see that the pace of building brick roads in the Tang Dynasty can not stop at all. The news of the great court meeting at the end of the year has already spread to the government and the public. The concept of Longhai line has been hotly discussed by the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    "In the future, the transportation team of Mojia village will be further expanded, focusing on the brick road. Where will the brick road be built? Where will the team of Mojia village be extended! As for the carriage, the transportation team need not worry. The four wheeled carriage will give priority to the supply of the transportation team, and the horses will be transported continuously." Merton waved his big hand.


    "Further expansion?" Li Xin was delighted and nodded heavily. If the team of Mojia village continues to expand with the brick road, over time, when all the ten brick roads of Datang are connected, what a behemoth the team of Mojia village will develop into.


    "About the transport team, I have one request, that is, fast!" Merton said.


    Li Xin suddenly stood up and said proudly, "young master, don''t worry. The speed of the transportation team in Mojia village can be described as the place in the middle of the pass."


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is far from enough. With the construction of brick road, the traffic from Chang''an city to Luoyang will surely usher in a big outbreak. Luoyang is just at the intersection of Longhai line and Grand Canal. Goods from East, West, North and South will gather here, which will surely usher in great opportunities."


    As for the importance of Luoyang City, even Hua Yuan, who is the least concerned about current politics, nodded deeply. With the Longhai line, it is unknown that Luoyang City will surpass Chang''an City in the future.


    Merton said proudly, "therefore, the next step of Mojia village is Luoyang City. The transportation team should first open a passenger train from Chang''an city to Luoyang."


    "Morning and evening!"


    The people were suddenly surprised that after the brick road from Chang''an city to Luoyang City was opened, the empty car test of the Ministry of industry was only coming and going, and Merton asked the transportation team to do so.


    "Young master, horses must rest if they run at most 100 li. Otherwise, their horsepower will be lost. Chang''an city is 800 li away from Luoyang, unless there are post stations along the way like the imperial court." Li Xin said with a bitter smile.


    Unexpectedly, Merton nodded and said, "yes, we just want to build a post station. No, it''s a service station."


    "Chang''an city is eight hundred miles away from Luoyang. Mojia village only needs to build a service station every hundred miles to store food, grass and horses. Every hundred miles when the carriage arrives at the service station, the horses change cars, unload the horses, put on new horses and start again. When the next transport team passes by, replace the horses that have rested and start again. In this way, it is not inevitable to start day and night Yes, even if it''s a carriage full of goods. You can definitely reach Luoyang City in two days. "Merton said.


    Everyone''s eyes lit up when they heard the speech. Merton''s move is indeed operable. In this way, the horses can get a rest, save a lot of time, and improve the efficiency several times. The only disadvantage is that it costs too much money.


    "Does the young master want to enter the passenger transport industry?" Li Xin asked carefully.


    Mo Village shook his head and said, "no, since Mojia village produces four-wheel carriages, it''s not suitable to intervene in the passenger transport market. It''s just too slow from Chang''an city to Luoyang. Let Mojia village be a catfish again this time!


    "Slow!"


    Everyone suddenly twitched at the corners of their mouths, and they all understood the catfish effect! But when ramming earth, it took at least five days from Chang''an city to Luoyang. After the brick road was built, it has been raised to two days. This is fast in the eyes of everyone, but it is still too slow in Merton''s eyes.


    Merton, who has experienced the baptism of later generations of highways and high-speed railways, naturally does not like the slow carriage now. As a last resort, Merton had to copy it according to the ideas of later generations of service stations, but changed refueling into changing horses, which is barely making do.


    Xu Jie agreed: "this can be done. Most rich families from Chang''an to Luoyang are willing to take it if they can save a day, even if they spend twice as much money."


    He often goes back and forth between Chang''an City and Luoyang. Naturally, he knows that if the passenger carriage in Mojia village can travel day and night, it must be very popular.

 Chapter 420

    "The focus of the transport team in years is the construction of service stations. It''s not afraid to spend more. Once completed, Mojia village will benefit immensely," Merton said.


    In this slow era, this will certainly double the efficiency of Mojia village, and the previous investment will be recovered several times.


    Although people know that the idea of the service station is really good, they still feel distressed. The post station can only be affordable by the imperial court, and they invest a huge amount of money in it every year. I''m afraid that only a person with a great heart like Morton would think of doing so and would be willing to spend such a huge amount of money in Chang''an city. Indeed, it is worthy of the title of a black sheep.


    For Merton''s great work, others have long been surprised. Even master Li can''t deny it, which makes Han Zheng nod secretly and take a high look at Merton''s influence in Mojia village.


    Han Zheng is not averse to this. Legalists are dependent on powerful figures. The more Merton speaks in Mojia village, the more conducive it is to the survival of Legalists.


    Li Xin nodded. Once the service station is completed, the transportation team will run at high speed, which is also beneficial to him.


    "Can the owner let other teams stop at the service station? If so, it will greatly reduce the cost of building the service station." Xu Jie said in his heart.


    Merton smiled knowingly and said, "of course, Mojia village is an open Mojia village. The service stations built in Mojia village are also open to the outside world. Even for some reputable merchants, it is necessary to rent horses in Mojia village!"


    Xu Jie''s heart suddenly a channel: "if so, this service station has great potential."


    If the flow of people in the service station increases, then in the future, inns and hotels can be developed, and the service station can sit down and collect money.


    Merton couldn''t help but look up at Xu Jie. He is worthy of being a rich businessman who has been in Chang''an City for many years. His business vision is really sharp. The imperial court''s post station can only lose money because of his unique use, but the service station in Mojia village can not become a cornucopia.


    Li Xin also slowly returned to his taste. The young master asked to travel from Chang''an city to Luoyang day and night. I''m afraid his purpose is not to get involved in passenger transport. I''m afraid the service station is his ultimate goal.


    "The arrangement of Mojia village in the next year focuses on brick road and Luoyang City in Chang''an, and all departments can refer to these two points in their business." Merton looked at the people and made a general direction for the future of Mojia.


    People nodded. Once the service station was completed, the time distance between Luoyang and Chang''an city was greatly shortened. The long journey was no longer a problem, and the importance of Luoyang suddenly became prominent.


    "Mohist hospital and Mohist food city will set up branches in Luoyang. You can select reliable people to prepare for Luoyang." Merton said to fish master and Hua Yuan.


    The two suddenly looked happy. If they had heard about going to Luoyang City before, they would be unhappy. However, now they hear the planning of the service station. They can go from Chang''an city to Luoyang day and night, and there is no conflict in their hearts.


    "I''d better go to Luoyang in person! Give Chang''an city to Yu Er! He has got my true story and is competent." fish Master Lu volunteered.


    Merton nodded and said, "Uncle Yu will certainly be able to open up a situation in Luoyang if he goes to Luoyang himself."


    "That''s just right. Let me be a companion with brother Yu. It''s enough to have brother sun in Chang''an." Hua Yuan nodded.


    Merton nodded. Sun Simiao was deliberately asked by the emperor to stay for the Queen''s condition. In addition, he was too old to go to Luoyang City, and it was more than enough to sit in Chang''an city with Sun Simiao''s reputation.


    Merton turned to master Li and said, "ten schools will be built in Mojia village next year, including one in the business district of Mojia village and three more within ten miles of Mojia village."


    Although Mojia village is rich, it can not eat alone. It is also necessary to help build some school houses and have a good relationship with neighboring villages. Besides, most of the people in the surrounding villages come to Mojia village to work. They are relatively rich. There are many talents who are willing to send their children to school. There is no need to worry about the source of students at all.


    Master Li nodded and Mojia village paid for it. It''s nothing to be selfish! Besides, these villages arranged by Merton are also very suitable places. What he wants is to popularize compulsory education. It doesn''t matter where to start.


    Han Zheng also nodded in secret and could give priority to the interests of Mojia village. At least Merton is not a hypocritical person.


    "How do you arrange the remaining six schools?" Merton said to Mr. Li.


    Master Li thought a little: "three institutes in Chang''an City and three institutes in Luoyang City."


    It turned out that Master Li didn''t intend to set up in Luoyang, but after listening to Merton''s plan, he also realized the importance of Luoyang and arranged the three schools in Luoyang City.


    "The construction of the school will be handed over to shopkeeper Xu, the Legalists will be responsible for supervision, and finally master Li will be responsible for acceptance." Merton simplified the engineering process of later generations and explained it to the public.


    The three nodded.


    Although Han Zheng sat there quietly, he kept observing. Mojia village was so rigorous that he had never seen it in his life. I''m afraid even the work department project of the imperial court was not so formal.


    Although it is a villain before a gentleman, it is much better to prevent trouble before it happens than to remedy it afterwards, which coincides with the thought of Legalists.


    "At present, there is no surplus labor force in Mojia village. If Mojia village wants to continue to develop, it must absorb foreign talents. For the foreign affairs department, shopkeeper Xu can continue to hire talents with both political integrity and talent." Merton told Xu Jie.


    "Young master, don''t worry. The treatment of Mojia village is first-class in Chang''an city. There are many talents who want to enter Mojia village." Xu Jie said confidently.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is far from enough. Real talents will not see this. In the future, all migrant workers recruited by Mojia village will be included in the free medical security of Mojia village, and can enjoy half price discount, and their children will enjoy the compulsory education of Mojia village."


    People can''t help but suddenly look up. If so, I''m afraid there will be a large number of talents to join Mojia village in the future. After all, the conditions of Mojia village are really exciting.


    "In this regard, Mr. Hua, shopkeeper Xu and Mr. Li should combine well and retain talents for Mojia village." Merton said to the three.


    "Don''t worry, boss!" Xu Jie nodded heavily.


    Hua Yuan nodded irrefutably. With the half price discount and the money subsidized by Mojia village to Mojia hospital over the years, Mojia hospital did not lose money.


    As for Mr. Li, it doesn''t matter. What he cares about is compulsory education. The more people there are, the happier he will be.


    Merton finally turned his attention to Li Yi, who is in charge of the Mojia village. It can be said that Li Yi has great prestige. In the last year, the development of Mojia village is also extremely rapid, and Li Yi has also made great contributions.


    "Another nursing home needs to be built in Mojia village," Merton said.


    "Nursing home?" Li Yi wondered.


    Merton nodded and said, "in the future, all the old people over the age of 60 in the Mojia village will be supported by the Mojia village. I want to make the Mojia village a place for everyone in the whole Tang Dynasty."


    "Teach the young, cure the sick and support the old!"


    They felt a burst of pride in their hearts. This was like a paradise on earth. The Mojia village was created bit by bit in their hands.


    "Don''t worry, young master!" Li Yi solemnly promised.


    Han Zheng was so excited that he couldn''t help looking at Merton. If so, would the Mojia village be too high-profile.


    Merton smiled. Mojia village has a unique status. Even if it is low-key and patient, it is useless. It''s better to simply raise a high profile and expose Mojia village to the public''s attention. In this way, the situation of Mojia village is safer.


    So far, the round table meeting in Mojia village officially ended.

 Chapter 421

    "Let''s go! The villagers should wait!" Merton got up.


    The crowd nodded and got up to follow. Only Xu Jie and Han Zheng were confused.


    However, they were stunned when they walked out of the Mohist mansion with the people and saw a dark area of Mohist villagers on the opposite Mozi square.


    Li Yi smiled and said to the two humanitarians, "this is the tradition of Mojia village. At the end of the year, all Mojia villages hold a plenary meeting, with one representative from each household. It is an annual event in Mojia village."


    The two suddenly looked at the Mozi square opposite. There were ten square teams, each with more than 100 people.


    The two suddenly.


    "Hello, young master!"


    Seeing Merton and his party coming out, the people of Mojia village shouted one after another.


    Merton responded with a smile and greeted some villagers warmly from time to time.


    In front of the villagers, a row of podiums had been arranged. Merton led the people to the podium and motioned them to sit down.


    And he stood in the middle, reached out and waved, and immediately the whole audience was quiet. Suddenly, Merton''s strong appeal was no doubt.


    Merton looked around and suddenly found that the position he was standing was exactly the place Merton had promised to the Mohist villagers when he boarded the stone pier. Although many old houses around had been demolished, Merton could still recognize it.


    Merton smiled knowingly and shouted. "Dear folks, more than a year ago, I promised you that we would live a good life, get rid of poverty and backwardness in Mojia village, let you stop suffering from hunger and cold, and let all the young men in Mojia village marry a daughter-in-law. Today, I''ll fulfill this promise."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole audience laughed. At the beginning, Merton''s promise was only regarded as a joke. Who could have thought that it would be realized in less than a year.


    Recalling the days of famine and cold, and looking at the rich life in Mojia village, many emotional people can''t help crying.


    "For more than a year, I know how hard you have worked. Today is finally the day for us to harvest." Merton said tall and straight.


    "Uncle Li, if not, it''s up to you to announce everyone''s achievements in the past year." Merton said to Li Yi.


    Li Yi nodded, solemnly picked up the statement in his hand and said in a loud voice: "over the past year, the live fish business in Mojia village has earned 2000 Guan, the chickens, ducks and geese have earned 5000 Guan, the farm tools have earned... The four wheeled carriage has made money... And the wine shop has earned..."


    Li Yi started from the living fish in Mojia village. Every item he said would make the whole Mojia village shout loudly, especially the four-wheel carriage and wine shop business. It was an astronomical number, which surprised the people in Mojia village. I couldn''t believe it.


    Even the people on the podium were stunned. No one could have imagined that a village could earn so much money. Only Xu Jie had been in the business of Mojia village and had an approximate number in mind.


    Han Zheng lamented repeatedly. I''m afraid the whole Tang Dynasty has such a large amount in addition to the people''s Department of the imperial court. It can be said that it is unprecedented!


    He couldn''t help looking at the expressionless Merton next to him. In the face of such huge wealth, he didn''t change his face. The Mohist son who was famous in Chang''an City really deserved his name.


    In fact, under the table he couldn''t see, Merton''s legs trembled. For such a large amount, Merton was only a house man in his previous life, how could he not be touched in his heart.


    Li Yi also shouted with enthusiasm, and then said, "the expenditure of Mojia village is as follows: 5000 yuan for building new houses, 13000 yuan for building factories, warehouses and shops, and 20000 yuan for laying brick roads!"


    The huge expenses made everyone feel like a roller coaster. They suddenly fell from the top of the mountain to the bottom. It was thousands and tens of thousands of money!


    However, this was not over yet. Li Yi trembled and said, "the granary expenditure was 38000 yuan, the wage expenditure... The cost of iron and wood... Other expenses..."


    Everyone in Mojia village immediately felt like a drop of blood. When Mojia village was poor, a penny could not wait to be broken into two, but now it is tens of thousands of dollars to take out!


    When it comes to other expenses, everyone can''t help but look at Merton. It is obvious that this other must be Merton''s expenditure in the western regions. Li Yi somehow left a layer of fig leaf for Merton.


    "Buy fifty thousand bonds from the Ministry of civil affairs! Pay ninety-five thousand taxes!" Li Yi said in a hoarse voice and trembling all over.


    Xu Jie''s eyes lit up when he heard the tax payment. I''m afraid such a huge tax is unprecedented in Datang!


    The business tax of Datang is very low, but the main part of the tax paid by Mojia village is the distillery tax, which is the four taxes and one tax requested by Merton. Relying on this tax alone, Mojia village must be as stable as Mount Tai.


    "Mojia village has a total surplus of 15000 yuan, 5000 yuan of dividends, and 10000 yuan of subtotal!" Li Yi said, and suddenly lost his body. Watching such a huge amount of money spent from Mojia village, even if he had killed thousands of troops and horses, he was not as frightened as he is today.


    Many people in Mojia village were numb. If they had learned that Mojia village had 10000 Guan of money a year ago, they would be ecstatic. But now, listening to such a large amount of money spent from Mojia village, they suddenly felt that these 10000 Guan seemed nothing.


    Even if the deposit of 5000 Guan for each dealer is counted, Mojia village has lost at least 40000 Guan.


    "The son of the Mo family, the black sheep of the Mo family!" the nickname of Merton''s fame in Chang''an City emerged one after another. I owe 40000 Guan to spend so much money in a year. I''m a black sheep of Tianzi No. 1.


    What''s more amazing is that they don''t feel that they owe 40000 Guan now, as if they owe four Wen and can pay it back tomorrow.


    Han Zheng put down a few wisps of pulled beard and nodded with satisfaction. Too much money will only cause trouble. Merton''s move is the safest way. If Merton hoards money like a miser, I''m afraid Han Zheng will turn around and leave.


    Merton smiled in his heart. The world knows that wealth needs to be accumulated, but wealth is like water. Only circulating wealth can be as clear as running water, and it will never dry up.


    Li Yi put down his statement, looked at the crowd and shouted, "in the latest evaluation of Chang''an County, there are thousands of families in Mojia village, all of them are superior!"


    "A thousand people go home!"


    "Ha ha, I''m going to a family."


    Everyone in Mojia village was boiling. In the evaluation of the Tang Dynasty, according to the amount of taxes paid, it was divided into upper, middle and lower counties. In each county, each household was also divided into upper, middle and lower households. Upper household refers to a rich family.


    "Every village has a family! It has never been seen in history!" said master Li proudly.

 Chapter 422

    Although Shanghu will bear more taxes, no one in Mojia village will care about them at the moment. There is only endless pride in his heart, and the extra taxes can be easily borne by the people of Mojia village.


    After the crowd cheered for a while, Li Yi waved his hand, and everyone immediately became quiet.


    Li Yi turned around and bowed to Merton: "young master, now that the young master has achieved success in his studies and is an adult, my task of managing the Mojia village should be over. Please personally lead the Mojia village to continue."


    Since the death of Molian, when Merton was young, Li Yi and some village elders have been in charge of the Mojia village. Without a leader, the Mojia village is poor.


    However, since Merton suddenly opened his mind and led the village to create miracles one after another. Merton was young before. In addition, Merton wanted to go to the Imperial College last year. The power of the village has always been controlled by Li Yi and other village elders. Now it is time for them to hand over the power, and Merton has proved his strength, Surely we can lead Mojia village to glory.


    "Please take power, young master!"


    "It''s the young master''s credit that Mojia village can have today."


    "I''ll do whatever the young master says."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of Mohist villagers shouted excitedly. They understood that the great achievements of Mohist village began with Merton taking out the secret skills of live fish. From then on, the secret skills of Mohist created the brilliance of Mohist.


    Merton got up slowly. Everyone was silent and looked forward to Merton one by one.


    Merton looked around for a week, looked at familiar faces and said in a loud voice: "today''s Mojia village is just to achieve a well-off society. There is still a long way to go in the future."


    Everyone on the podium nodded again and again. Mojia village has changed thousands of families from lower households to upper households in only one year. It''s hard to say why Mojia village can grow in the future.


    "As for how far the Mojia village will go in the future, I don''t know, because the Mojia village is an unknown road, a road that has never been taken by predecessors. We don''t know whether the future is a smooth road or a thorn. Maybe the Mojia village is just a flash in the pan and will soon be beaten back to its original shape. Maybe the Mojia village can work hard and walk out of a smooth road. Everything is unknown."


    Merton was not dazzled by the existing achievements of Mojia village. Now, Mojia village is just starting, just like a baby in infancy, and its development is only limited to a village. Under the protection of Li Shimin, it has escaped many cold shots and hidden arrows.


    Li Yi also nodded repeatedly. It was not that he was unwilling to take the post of village head, but that his vision was limited. He was afraid that a mistake would destroy the good situation of Mohist village.


    A group of Mohist villagers suddenly felt as if they had been poured with a basin of cold water.


    Merton said in a low voice, "today''s Mojia village is like being in the river. There are whirlpools and torrents everywhere. If you take a wrong step, you may be doomed."


    Han Zheng nodded. Mojia village seemed prosperous, but under this prosperity, there was a deep crisis. He thought that Merton could only see the contradiction between the villagers of Mojia village and the people in other villages, and was ready to mention Merton at the critical moment. Now it seems that he underestimated the student he taught for one year.


    "A thousand years ago, Mohist Saint had encountered the same situation as Mohist village." Merton turned to look at the huge statue of Mozi and said in a deep tone.


    "Mozi said secretly that Mozi was in urgent need of crossing a strange river. In front of Mozi, there was no boat, no bridge, and no one to point out. It was impossible to tell where the river was deep and where it was shallow. People in deep water might drown, but people in shallow water could cross. Mozi thought again and again, resolutely went into the water, tried the water with his own body, and groped for the stones in the river Step by step on the stone and finally crossed the river. "


    "Mo Sheng is wise!" all the people said in unison.


    Merton looked around and said proudly, "today''s Mohist village must follow the example of Mohist, not only have the courage to step into the river, but also feel the stones step by step."


    Everyone nodded slowly as if thinking.


    "In the past year, I was in Chang''an city. Under the leadership of Uncle Li, the Mojia village still operated normally and orderly, and made such great achievements, which proves that this way is correct. This is the crossing of the river in our Mojia village. At this time, Han Kangzi and Wei Huanzi discussed and said: "Zhao''s present destiny is the future destiny of our two families. If Zhao dies in the morning, we will die at night; if Zhao dies in the evening, we will die tomorrow morning. Only our three families unite to defeat Zhi boyao can ensure our safety¡°


    So Han and Wei cooperated with Zhao and defeated Zhi boyao. The three shared Zhi''s land and expanded themselves. Later, they became one of the seven heroes of the Warring States period.


    Merton said proudly, "with water as a mirror, you can correct your clothes; with history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall; with people as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses. The Wei and Han families can take Zhao as a mirror and turn good luck into good luck. The Mohist village is in the ascendant. You should be prepared for danger in times of peace. The Mohist school should take law as a mirror, you can know bad luck."


    "Take the law as a mirror!"


    On the rostrum, Master Li and Han Zheng suddenly burst into their eyes, and their hearts were shocked. They couldn''t help feeling Murton''s words in their hearts.


    Taking people as a mirror originally originated from Mozi''s non attack. Li Shimin also said taking people as a mirror, but he said it only when Wei Zheng died. Now Wei Zheng lives well, and Merton naturally uses it impolitely.


    "Master Han, the Mojia village will be handed over to you. Under the law of the Tang Dynasty, it is up to the master to decide." Merton solemnly said to Han Zheng.


    Han Zheng said solemnly, "please rest assured that the Mohist school is willing to make this mirror."


    So far, the Mojia village meeting officially ended.


    With the arrival of new year''s Eve, the seven years of Zhenguan ended.

 Chapter 423

    The first day of the eighth year of Zhenguan is also the Spring Festival of later generations.


    According to the custom, new year''s Eve requires a new year''s Eve. The Mohist villagers in the Mohist village have no sense of sleepiness and come out to visit relatives and friends.


    At the entrance of Mojia village, four wheeled carriages are placed neatly.


    On the carriage, the newlyweds who had just married into Mojia village were extremely excited. They made an appointment to go to Chang''an city today. This is a special benefit for the newlyweds.


    "Every Spring Festival, Chang''an city is very lively. Today, we can''t help but enter Zhuque Street directly from the south gate, which is the most prosperous street in Chang''an city." on a carriage, Yu Er drove the carriage himself and said proudly to his daughter-in-law.


    Yuer''s bride immediately looked forward to the prosperous Chang''an city. She just heard from other people. Now she can finally go in person, and her mood is naturally different.


    "Let''s go to Zhuque street first, East market in the morning, west market in the afternoon, and eat at yuzhuangyuan building at noon. Today''s yuzhuangyuan building is specially for you!" Yuer introduced in detail.


    The second bride proudly said, "what''s there? I haven''t eaten your dishes."


    "That''s!" said the second pet of the fish.


    "Look, fish, that''s the young master! Does the young master also go to Chang''an City?" the bride of Yu Er suddenly looked at the figure of Merton in the rear, pushed Yu Er''s wide back and whispered.


    The second fish nodded and said, "today is the first day. Some human contacts in Chang''an city are naturally inseparable from the young master."


    In the rear carriage, Merton asked fuber, "are the gifts for each family ready?"


    "Don''t worry, young master! The gift to Chang''an City set out yesterday. I believe Moda has sent it to all houses." Fubo said.


    In the past, there was no one in the Mohist house during the Chinese New Year. Naturally, it didn''t pay off with other houses. However, since Merton has moved into the Mohist house in Chang''an City, the previous relationship between Merton''s late father naturally needs to be consolidated. In addition, many people have helped the Mohist school a lot, so they just take this opportunity to pay back their gifts.


    "I believe that this gift from Mojia village will surely satisfy everyone." Merton said proudly in his heart.


    This time, the main gift of Mojia village is glasses. Those with old people give presbyopic glasses, those with myopia give myopia glasses, and those in prime of life give sunglasses. In addition, several boxes of collection versions to solve thousands of worries are all local specialties of Mojia village, which are free of charge.


    "Let''s go!"


    Merton waved goodbye to Li Yi and others, and the long Mohist team sped away in the direction of Chang''an city.


    Looking at the villages farther and farther away, Merton sighed that this was originally his closest place, but now he can only live for a day or two and will return to Chang''an city.


    When the motorcade of Mojia village entered Chang''an City, the newlyweds of Mojia village couldn''t help looking at the majestic and tall city walls and the bustling streets with curiosity.


    On Zhuque street, the people of Chang''an City, who have been busy for a year, have come to the street to welcome the arrival of the new year. Taoist temples are full of incense. People are scrambling to pray for prosperity in the new year.


    "Congratulations on getting rich!" people kept congratulating each other on the street.


    When the long motorcade of Mojia village passed by, suddenly everyone couldn''t help but have a meal, and a larger voice of discussion came at random.


    "If money is lucky, it''s still the most prosperous in Mojia village!"


    "There are thousands of families in Mojia village. Every family is superior. Who would have thought that Mojia village is a treasure land of Feng Shui."


    "It''s not too much to earn so much money in a year, let alone a treasure land of Feng Shui, even a cornucopia."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an city looked at the long motorcade of Mojia village and envied them one by one. They were secretly hating why they were not born in Mojia village.


    It was not the news of the Mojia village meeting that reached Chang''an City, but Merton did not intend to keep it confidential. He directly published the financial statements of Mojia village in Mojia magazine in advance and published them in Chang''an City on the day of the Spring Festival.


    Once issued, it immediately caused an uproar in Chang''an city. No one thought that Mojia village could earn such money a year.


    "What''s the use of prosperous wealth! No matter how prosperous it is, it can''t stand the flowers of the Mojia Zi! The Mojia Zi, a black sheep of the family, has spent so much money. With the deposit, he still owes tens of thousands of yuan." a middle-aged man in royal clothes dressed up as a landlord looked at the ink magazine in his hand, and his heart was bleeding more painful than spending his money.


    The people around also twitched. How many people in Chang''an City have tens of thousands of money, and Mojia village owes tens of thousands of money even if it spends so much.


    A Confucian scholar looked up at the sky and sighed bitterly. "Last year, there was a poem in the Mohist family saying that I must be useful when I was born, and I will come back when I have lost all my money. At that time, I thought that the Mohist family was exaggerating in order to write poetry. Now it seems that I have wronged the Mohist family, and he has lost more than his money!"


    When the people around heard the speech, they suddenly looked strange. Hearing what the Confucian scholars said and associating it with the poems of Mohism, people suddenly looked at the sky without words.


    "What is tens of thousands of guans? The solution of thousands of worries is so popular that which dealer is willing to give up the distribution right and return the deposit." a merchant next to the Royal landlords snorted coldly.


    Jieqianchou can be said to be the best-selling wine in the whole Tang Dynasty. It can be said that there is a price without a market during the new year. Now which dignitaries in Chang''an city are proud to drink jieqianchou. Zheng Qian, a dealer in guanneidao, has already made a lot of money.


    People don''t doubt this. If others don''t mention it, with 50000 bonds from the Ministry of civil affairs in hand, Mojia village is naturally full of confidence.


    Mojia village can earn money, and Mojia Zi can spend money and is willing to spend money. Suddenly, the image of Mojia village deepened a bit in the hearts of people.


    On the carriage, a group of new wives of Mojia village watched the people of Chang''an City pointing at the motorcade of Mojia village. From time to time, one or two words of Mojia son and black sheep were introduced into the car, and they couldn''t help laughing.


    Yu Er immediately smiled bitterly. It seems that he can''t get rid of the black sheep about his young master''s reputation.


    On the carriage, Fu Bo listened to the gossip outside the window. He couldn''t help looking at the black young master secretly, and quickly changed the topic and said, "young master, the Mojia village wants to recruit workers, which is a little higher!"


    In addition to a thousand families in Mojia village and the behavior of the black sheep of Merton''s family being hotly discussed in the whole city, what caused a greater sensation was the recruitment notice in Mojia village.


    Mojia village has superior wages, half price medical care and free school for children. No matter which one is exciting.


    Of course, the conditions in Mojia village are more strict, especially being able to read and count, which is difficult for a large number of people.


    "There are not many people who know how to read and count, but there will always be some." Merton said slowly. How can everyone in the Tang Dynasty be an official? There will always be some people who can read and count like pearls in the folk. Confucianism selects the most elite, and the rest is Mohist.


    It is still unknown who is in the dominant position when Confucianism takes quality and Mohism takes quantity.


    "Besides, the Mohist school does not give those white people a chance, but the night school in the Mohist village has always been open to them for free, and master Li''s school can be opened only when he realizes that knowledge is valuable!" Merton showed a trace of cunning.


    For ordinary people, going to school is a waste of money and time. It''s better to let children help with farm work at home, be half a labor force and do chores.


    The purpose of Merton''s move is to make ordinary families realize that there is another way to go to school in addition to being an official.

 Chapter 424

    "So, Mojia village has contributed 95000 consistent taxes to the imperial court!" said the empress changsun with ink magazine in her hand in the legislative hall.


    Ninety five thousand taxes! Even a year''s land tax of a superior County in the Tang Dynasty is just like this, but Mojia village can achieve it with the strength of one village. Although it manages the finance of the harem, it has not received so much money.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "if you add 50000 bonds from the Ministry of civil affairs, a total of 145000 bonds!"


    Although 50000 Guan''s treasury bonds of the Ministry of civil affairs have to be repaid when due, it is money after all, which makes Li Shimin extremely satisfied. Not to mention that driven by Mojia village, Chang''an City has bought bonds one after another. The 400000 Guan bonds of the Ministry of civil affairs have been sold out in less than half a month.


    As soon as Merton made a big move of 50000 yuan, he immediately dispelled the doubts of the people in Chang''an city about the new thing of bonds. You know, the place where the MOH family can take the initiative must be the rolling financial resources, which led to the hot sale of bonds.


    "Merton has contributed a lot of money to the imperial court, but he is also a loser. So much money has been spent one by one!" Li Shimin couldn''t help taking a cold breath as he looked at the huge expenditure of the Mojia village.


    He is an emperor and doesn''t spend as much money as the Mohist family. Usually, if he wants to build some palaces, he will certainly attract criticism from the Manchu Dynasty. The boy Merton is very successful in Mohist village and waves everything with a big hand. Looking at the financial statements of Mohist village, he spends as much money as water. Mohist village has earned so much money and owes tens of thousands of Guan.


    "That''s why Merton will spend money, and it''s worth it. Not to mention, every village in Mojia village goes to households, and even ordinary people who go to work benefit a lot." empress Chang sun defended Merton by pointing to the recruitment advertisement in Mojia village.


    She had a good impression of Merton, not to mention that Merton retained Sun Simiao for his illness, but that he corrected Li Chengqian''s foot disease, which made her very grateful, not to mention Changle and Li Tai''s eyes.


    Li Shimin was speechless at once. He had to say that the Mexican family had the ability to spend money, and had the ability to earn money, and the more money they spent, although the book of the Mexican village owed 40000 yuan, Merton''s money did not spend a hundred dollars. Instead, he used this huge sum of money to build a huge foundation in the Mexican village, which led to the prosperity of many industries and benefited countless people, This is not what money can measure.


    In this matter, pound entered the legislative hall, presented a gift list and bowed down: "emperor, this is a congratulatory gift for all officials. Please check it."


    Li Shimin picked it up and ordered pound: "the house of interior will return gifts to all officials according to the gift list. Remember to return more."


    It is a custom over the years for the emperor to give gifts to all officials. Naturally, the royal family will not take advantage of the ministers, but will often return to the past more richly.


    "The emperor can rest assured that the house of interior is preparing."


    Pound bowed immediately.


    Li Shimin looked at the gift list and nodded. As a man of the Tang Dynasty, he didn''t care about the value of the courtiers'' gifts. However, when he saw a painting and calligraphy sent by Wei Zheng, the corners of his mouth still twitched involuntarily. Some poor courtiers wanted to make a small fortune. Wei Zheng was one of the representatives, covering the White Wolf empty handed every year.


    "It seems that this old man is used to playing in the autumn wind!" Li Shimin said helplessly. Every year, Wei Zheng is a pair of free calligraphy and painting, and swindles the Royal real gold and silver in return.


    Empress Chang sun immediately covered her mouth and smiled.


    "Eh, this is from Merton." Li Shimin was stunned when he suddenly saw Merton''s name on the gift list.


    Pound bowed and said, "Lord Mo sent a car of out of print jieqianchou and glasses specially provided by the royal family. Xiaoqianchou has sent them to the wine cellar."


    "Royal exclusive! Out of print!" Li Shimin was very happy when he heard the two words. Merton was really authentic. The two words immediately satisfied Li Shimin.


    "It''s OK to send me wine, but I''m still young, but I don''t need reading glasses!" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and looked at the glasses written on the gift list, pretending to be angry.


    He is extremely satisfied with the solution of Qianchou in Mojia village. After drinking it, drinking other wine is as insipid as tasteless and difficult to swallow. Merton''s delivery of wine is very much in his mind, but Merton''s delivery of glasses also makes him slightly dissatisfied. He is not old enough to wear reading glasses.


    When pound heard the speech, he immediately bowed and handed a brocade box. He smiled mysteriously and said, "Your Majesty, don''t blame it. This is the brocade box sent by Lord mo. the emperor will know when he opens it."


    Li Shimin looked at pound suspiciously, but pound smiled but didn''t speak. He had to take the brocade box and gently opened it. He saw two glasses quietly in the brocade box. However, unlike reading glasses, the lenses of the two glasses were not transparent, but black and red.


    "What is this?"


    Li Shimin naturally picked up the black glasses and handed the red glasses to empress Chang sun. They looked over and over curiously as if they had got a new toy.


    "According to the children of Mohism, these are sunglasses," said pound.


    Empress Chang sun looked at the red glasses in her hand and said cunningly, "is this pair of glasses in my hand called red glasses?"


    Pound said: "Sunglasses refer to the mirror of Mohism, not its color. Your majesty has black sunglasses and the queen has red sunglasses."


    Li Shimin frowned when he heard the speech. The sunglasses were as dark as ink. If they were worn, they would not be like a blind man, so he couldn''t help but put them on.


    Suddenly, he only felt the darkness in front of him, and although the scenery in front of him decreased by a few shades, it was still clearly visible. At the moment, the sunlight was reflected from the roof outside the house. Li Shimin found that he could look directly at the light of the sun with sunglasses.


    "Eh!" empress Chang sun obviously found this too. As if they had discovered the new world, they went straight out of the open space outside the palace and looked up at the sun with sunglasses.


    Normal people, even if they look at the sun, have stinging glasses and constant sneezing. Li Shimin is relaxed and comfortable. I''m afraid he can look directly at the sun in history.


    After a long time, empress Chang sun reluctantly took off her sunglasses, looked at her shadow reflected in Li Shimin''s sunglasses, and said with emotion: "this thing really has wonderful functions. If it is most suitable in heavy snow and midsummer."


    These two times are when the sun is the most dazzling. With these sunglasses, you can certainly protect your eyes.


    "In my opinion, if you ride a horse, it can not only protect your glasses from strong light, but also protect them from wind and sand." Li Shimin said with a trace of satisfaction.


    This is a perfect match for horsemen. In this era, dirt roads are everywhere. When it comes to windy weather and sand, pedestrians can''t open their eyes. With these sunglasses, there will be no such trouble. He is a person who loves riding and is naturally happy to see and hunt.


    Li Shimin curiously reached out and touched the lens of sunglasses. He saw that the sunglasses were smooth as ice and turned out to be flat.


    "Presbyopic glasses, convex lenses, nearsighted lenses, concave lenses, sunglasses, flat lenses, light and shadow together, Mohism is unique in the world!" Li Shimin couldn''t help sighing.

 Chapter 425

    "Hello to the emperor, Empress and empress!"


    Led by Li Chengqian, a group of princes and daughters came to the Lizheng hall to greet the emperor and the queen.


    Li Shimin couldn''t close his mouth with a smile. After a few greetings with his children, he focused on Li Tai. Among the princes, Li Tai with gold rimmed myopia glasses was particularly conspicuous and elegant.


    "Green Finch, you''re used to wearing myopia glasses!" Li Shimin asked with concern.


    Li Tai pushed his glasses unnaturally and said, "back to my father, I still don''t adapt to wearing it at the beginning, but compared with being able to restore my eyesight, this discomfort is nothing?"


    He was extremely satisfied with the myopia glasses sent by Merton, which let him restore his eyesight. Moreover, it was a gold frame, with a very unique shape, beautiful and generous.


    Li Shimin nodded. He also felt that after Li Tai put on his myopia glasses, he immediately had a temperament of reading poetry and books, and there was no sense of conflict.


    "Where''s Changle? How''s your eyesight recovered?" Li Shimin looked at Princess Changle,


    On the contrary, Princess Changle wore ugly and big reading glasses. The image of Princess Changle plummeted. Li Zhi, a bear child, looked at the unique shape of Princess Changle and immediately covered his mouth and smiled.


    Princess Changle glared at Li Zhi with hatred and said helplessly, "go back to my father and Emperor. According to the prescription of the Chinese miracle doctor, the child will bring presbyopic glasses to correct his eyesight, and then cooperate with pressing the acupoints. The child''s eyesight has recovered a lot."


    If it had been in the past, he would not have worn such ugly reading glasses, but after Changle studied medicine, she naturally knew that she could not hide her illness and avoid medicine. Even if Li Zhi, a troublemaker, laughed at him many times, she still insisted on wearing reading glasses every day and recorded the changes in her eyesight.


    As Merton said, how to treat ophthalmology is a blank. If Changle can take itself as an example, it will certainly be able to make up for this blank for the medical community of Datang.


    "This is the eye health exercise summarized by the child. Massage the acupoints according to this formula will greatly reduce the probability of myopia. I also hope that the father and the emperor can promote the world and let the students all over the world protect their eyes." Princess Changle handed Li Shimin a rice paper and said solemnly.


    Li Shimin took a look. He saw a pair of eyes painted on the rice paper, clearly marked with acupoints and the technique of massage and pressing. He immediately said, "well, this is the best gift my father received this year, and my royal family has also given a female flat magpie."


    Li Shimin and his sons and daughters gathered for a moment and asked them to go to their mother''s concubine to say hello. Naturally, Li Chengqian stayed and spoke with the empress changsun.


    Princess Changle and with Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi surround empress changsun and talk about themselves. Li Chengqian and Li Tai follow Li Shimin and listen to his father''s teachings.


    "I don''t know anything about my child. Please ask my father to solve my doubts." Li Tai pushed his glasses and said.


    "Oh!"


    "Throughout the dynasties, the imperial court piled up a mountain of Chen millet, and the copper money was stored in the Treasury. It was rusty and the line to carry money was broken. Since then, the imperial court has been rich and the people are strong. Even ordinary rich families like to store their money. However, Mojia village is very different. Merton seems to know that the money he earned is spent, and even owes money." Li Tai wondered.


    Everyone can see from mojiazi''s statement that if Mojia village wants to save money, not to mention more, at least 100000 yuan of money can be saved. What''s more strange is that although Mojia village owes 40000 yuan of money, no one denies the wealth of Mojia village, which simply subverts their previous view of wealth.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "this is the balance of payments..."


    If Li Shimin had not understood these economic principles before, when the Ministry of Civil Affairs issued bonds, Merton once arranged these theories for Li Shimin, and Li Shimin naturally remembered them.


    Li Chengqian was also puzzled and said, "the children''s ministers were also puzzled. Kong Jijiu once taught children that there is a fixed number of wealth. One side has more than one, and the other side must be damaged. However, all the wealth gathered in Mojia village is at the expense of others and self-interest."


    "Wealth is created. Labor creates wealth. A piece of soil is worthless everywhere. People burn it into bricks, and the soil has value. Bricks are built into houses by bricklayers, and the value is doubled again. Mojia village is not hoarding, nor buying high and selling low. On the contrary, it constantly creates wealth with labor, but unlike others, Mojia village The speed of ink technology to create wealth is a little too fast. "Li Shimin impolitely took the contents of Merton''s Memorial as his own, and immediately received the worship eyes of Li Chengqian and Li Tai.


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. He took out a document from the letter and handed it to his two sons. He said, "this is Merton''s strategy to govern the Mohist village. What do you think?"


    "With the rule of law!"


    Li Chengqian and Li Tai watched the document at the same time and exclaimed.


    They still remember Merton''s article on the law examination. When they saw that Merton personally invited his former doctor of law to go to the Mojia village and allowed the Legalists to independently rule on the internal affairs of the Mojia village, they suddenly realized that Merton did not talk, but directly put it into action.


    "Merton gave up the right to directly control the Mojia village," said Li Tai.


    Anyone can see that the future of Mojia village must have infinite potential. Whoever controls Mojia village is like holding an endless cornucopia.


    However, Merton directly said that Mojia village is not his private property. He delegated power to Han Zheng and Li Yi without nostalgia. He often lives in Chang''an City and will not directly control Mojia village, which is unthinkable for ordinary people.


    "Mozi is worthy of being a Mozi. People admire him for his heart!" Li Tai sighed. To be fair, if it were him, I''m afraid he wouldn''t be so crisp.


    "No! Mohist village is the hope of Mohist revival. Merton can''t give up Mohist village," Li Chengqian shook his head. "In my opinion, Merton just changed his way."


    Li Shimin smiled and encouraged, "Gao Ming, how do you say Merton manages the Mohist village?"


    Li Chengqian looked at the document in his hand, thought a little, his eyes brightened and said: "in Mojia village, there are only three people who really control power, one is village head Li Yi, the other is Dr. Han Zhenghan, and the third is..."


    "There''s no one!" Li Tai immediately wondered.


    Li Chengqian paused and said, "the third is not a person, but a group of people."


    "A group of people?" Li Tai didn''t understand.


    "Yes, the third person in power is the Mojia village assembly. According to Merton''s setting, as long as half of the people in the Mojia village assembly object, the village head Li Yi can be dismissed. Han Zheng''s ruling on the affairs of the Mojia village must meet the wishes of most of the Mojia villagers. It can be seen that the status of the Mojia village assembly must not be ignored. In this way, the village head Li Yi, Dr. Han Zheng and Dr. Han Zheng, Mojia village The meeting was a tripartite meeting in Mojia village, "said Li Chengqian suddenly.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. As expected, Li Chengqian didn''t disappoint him.


    The more he thought about it, the more excited Li Chengqian said: "During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the tripod had three legs, which were enough to support a huge tripod. It was as stable as Mount Tai. During the Three Kingdoms period, Shu, Wu and Wei had three legs. Wu was the weakest and Wei was strong. Wu and Shu united to resist Wei. Shu attacked Wu. Wu and Wei fought against Wu. The three countries maintained balance for decades. I once heard that Merton once said that the tripod was the most stable form, No I thought he should use it to govern the Mohist village. "

 Chapter 426

    As a qualified emperor, it is the most important thing to be good at using checks and balances. From ancient times to today, emperors of all dynasties have mostly used the policy of tripartite confrontation to check and balance their ministers


    From the three gongs and nine Qings in the Qin and Han Dynasties to the three provinces and six departments system in the Tang Dynasty, they are multiples of three.


    Apart from the six parts, the three provinces are the three pillars in the real sense. The three provinces contain each other and supervise each other. In this way, the emperor not only reduces the workload, but also does not have to worry about the risk that his ministers will overhead their rights.


    "In this way, Merton imitates the three gongs and nine Qings of the previous dynasty, but it''s a pity that Handan is learning to walk and four different!" Li Tai suddenly realized.


    The round table conference advocated by Merton is just in line with the number and system of three gongs and nine Qings. People obviously think that Merton uses it to transform Mojia village.


    "All the pre Qin schools of thought respect ancient rites and are stubborn!" Li Tai said coldly in his heart.


    History has proved that the three gongs and nine Qings are no longer in line with the requirements of the times. The three provinces and six departments system is the best political system summarized by the crystallization of China''s Millennium wisdom. In Li Tai''s view, Merton''s move is the biggest failure.


    Li Shimin nodded. If ordinary people imitate the political system, the imperial court will be afraid, but it would be strange if they don''t advocate a system for the hundred schools of thought.


    If Merton adopted the system of three provinces and six ministries, it would certainly leave a knot in his heart, and Merton adopted the system of three princes and nine princes in the Qin and Han Dynasties, it would be nothing. You know that Confucius still wholeheartedly advocated the restoration of Zhou rites?


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "although Sangong Jiuqing is out of date, Merton does not completely copy it, but has made great changes. It is difficult to say how effective it is."


    Sangong is the prime minister, the censor doctor and the Taiwei. In the Mohist village, except Li Yiying, the censor doctor has suddenly become all the villagers. The Taiwei was originally in charge of the army, but Merton let the legalist Han Zheng replace him.


    Although Li Chengqian is not optimistic about the system of three gongs and nine Qings, he is full of confidence in Merton. Moreover, he always feels that there is another deep meaning in the change of Mo Village, but he can''t say why.


    "Besides, Mojia village is just a little bigger. I''m afraid we can manage it even if we copy the outdated system!" Li Chengqian said with a bitter smile.


    Li Shimin showed a meaningful smile and said, "so Gao Ming also thinks that Merton''s move can manage the Mohist village well."


    Li Chengqian nodded solemnly, and he believed it.


    "Where''s the green sparrow?" Li Shimin turned his head and asked, Li Tai aside.


    Li Tai smiled bitterly and nodded: "Hui''s father, three gongs and nine Qings have been used for hundreds of years in the Qin and Han Dynasties. It can be seen that they must have their advantages. It is more than enough to manage a Mojia village."


    In his opinion, Merton''s move was like killing chickens with a bull knife. No, it was like taking an army to kill chickens and manage a village. Merton even imitated the three gongs and nine Qing system, which was like shooting mosquitoes with cannons.


    "So, you all think that Mojia village will certainly get better and better in a long time in the future?" Li Shimin asked again.


    Li Tai and Li Chengqian were stunned and suddenly realized that in their view, it is not important for Mojia village that three gongs and nine Qings are not outdated, as long as they can make Mojia village better.


    At the same time, they realized a new problem. Now the Mojia village has made so many contributions to the imperial court and paid so many taxes. How will the future Mojia village grow.


    The two looked at each other and suddenly showed a frightened expression.


    Li Shimin solemnly said: "the system is not outdated, but depends on whether it is appropriate. Even the outdated system can play an incredible function as long as it is used properly."


    Li Shimin was not a formal person. In the Han Dynasty, the state enfeoffment system had caused endless harm, and Li Shimin still let his common sons be enfeoffed to all parts of the Tang Dynasty as officials. If it were not for the opposition of hundreds of officials later, the Tang Dynasty would repeat the rebellion of the seven countries.


    If Merton were here, he would immediately smile bitterly. He just simplified the system of separation of powers in later generations and used it in Mojia village, but he didn''t expect to support the system of three public and nine Qing.


    "Remember, son!" Li Chengqian bowed and replied.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. The reason why he analyzed Merton''s strategy of governing Mojia village was not only to let Li Chengqian understand the principle of checks and balances, but also to teach some ways of governing the country.


    But he ignored one thing. When he taught Li Chengqian, he didn''t avoid Li Tai at all, and didn''t find that Li Tai''s low eyes were unusually bright.


    "Emperor, this is a reward for your ministers. Please check it!" at this moment, pound hurried from outside the hall, handed a return gift list and bowed.


    Li Shimin reached out and nodded with satisfaction. Although the weather in Datang was not good this year, the three natural disasters have successfully avoided the past, the Treasury is full, and the reward this year is much richer.


    However, when he saw Wei Zheng''s reward, he could not help frowning and pound''s eyelids drooped. Because Wei Zheng gave the thinnest gift, Wei Zheng''s reward was relatively inferior to that of important officials at the same level.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath: "Merton said yesterday that taking water as a mirror can correct clothes, history as a mirror can know prosperity and change, people as a mirror can clarify gains and losses, and law as a mirror can know bad and good luck. Mohism takes law as a mirror, I take people as a mirror, and Wei Zheng is my mirror."


    Li Shimin didn''t know that Merton''s sentence was copied from him. Consciously, this sentence was too kind to him. Merton asked the Legalists to supervise the Mohist school all the time to avoid the Mohist school going the wrong way. It was Wei Zheng who often advised him to avoid making mistakes. When Li Shimin saw taking people as mirrors, he first thought of Wei Zheng.


    "Your Majesty, it''s a great blessing for you to meet your ministers." pound complimented.


    Li Shimin immediately showed a proud look and said, picked up the gift list, stretched out his hand and said, "come on, add the return gift to Merton to Wei Aiqing."


    "Ah!" the crowd was stunned.


    Pound suddenly recovered and said, "otherwise, I''ll prepare another gift for Lord mohou."


    Li Shimin snorted coldly and said, "Mojia village is so rich that he will care about this little money."


    Pound smiled bitterly. The royal reward has always been generous. When is it a small money? But with the ability of Mojia village to make money, it is estimated that these rewards are really not in Merton''s heart.


    "Besides, with this boy''s character of losing his family, how much money is not enough for him to squander." Li Shimin said with hatred.


    "That''s what the emperor means?" pound said cautiously.


    Li Shimin showed a proud smile and said, "this year, I''m going to follow Wei Aiqing''s example and never pull a dime!"


    Under the puzzled look of the people, Li Shimin went to the letter and wrote five big characters.


    "The first village in the world!"

 Chapter 427

"At the same time, the news that Mojia village was personally declared as the first village in the world by the emperor spread all over Chang''an city like a fly, and immediately caused a sensation in the whole Chang''an city.

 Chapter 428

    Not only in the Imperial Palace, but also among the major families in Chang''an City, the discussion on Mojia village has never stopped.


    In Qin''s residence, Qin Qiong looked at Mo magazine and immediately laughed happily. She picked up the wine cup and drank all the contents in the cup. Although he was in poor health, he was recuperated by Mo hospital. In addition, today is the Spring Festival. What''s more rare is the current good wine, so she made an exception and drank a few cups.


    Qin Qiong looked at the ink magazine and sighed repeatedly. She didn''t expect that the once poor Mojia village would create amazing wealth in a short time. What''s more valuable is that every penny in Mojia village is clean, and Merton''s decision to directly publish the financial statements of Mojia village has impressed Qin Qiong. In this era, it''s important to keep the money secret, Merton is brave enough to walk at night in royal clothes.


    "Wealth and wealth have moved people since ancient times. I''m afraid people will be jealous of Mojia village because it is so rich!" said Mrs. Qin anxiously. She knew that the most dangerous thing in the world was the people''s heart.


    Qin Qiong shook her head and said: "That''s right. Merton''s move is a great move. It is well known that the Mojia village must have made a lot of money. It can be said that it''s not too much to hide. Instead, it fell into inferior, even such a great wealth. If it is in the hands of individuals, it will make many people sit and lie uneasy. Merton made the financial affairs of the Mojia village public, and even explained every expenditure in detail To spend the money directly, even if someone wants to pay attention to the Mojia village, I''m afraid it''s just an empty shell. It will also deprive the imperial court of a source of taxes of 100000 yuan a year. It can be said that it can''t beat the fox and cause a coquettish. "


    "Master! News from the city! Mojia village has been declared the first village in the world by your majesty." the housekeeper hurried in and reported.


    "The first village in the world?" Qin Qiong suddenly rose and said in a surprised voice.


    "Yes! Now it''s all over Chang''an," replied the housekeeper.


    "From the perspective of children, Mojia village is the first village in the world, which is worthy of its name. Children have visited Mojia village many times. Mother, you don''t know, Mojia village is clean and tidy, and the people are rich. Even compared with Chang''an City, it doesn''t fall behind, let alone other villages." Qin Huaiyu said proudly.


    Even the villages around Chang''an City have small houses, muddy roads, dead people and no clothes. It is comparable to the vigorous momentum of Mojia village. In Qin Huaiyu''s view, Mojia village is well deserved to be called the first village in the world.


    "Merton is really a good child, and it''s good to manage Mojia village!" Mrs. Qin said with satisfaction. The current situation of Mojia village can be said to be known to women and children in Chang''an City, just like heaven on earth. Coupled with the friendship between Merton and Qin Huaiyu, Mrs. Qin naturally pays more attention to Mojia village.


    "However, it''s still unknown whether your Majesty''s move will be good or bad for Mojia village!" Qin Qiong said with a bitter smile. Li Shimin sealed Mojia village as the first village in the world. Although he protected the Mojia village in a short time, he also let the Mojia village stand on the fire and bake the wood in the forest. The wind will destroy it. In the future, the Mojia village will surely usher in constant storms.


    "My Lord, I don''t know whether it''s a blessing or a curse. But the old brothers in the village yearn for the way to make money in Mojia village. Ask the villain if you can follow the example of Mojia village." the housekeeper of the Qin family smiled bitterly.


    Qin Qiong, as the Duke of the state, naturally has his own food town. Most of the villagers in the village are pro guards who followed Qin Qiong in the northern and southern battles. As a Village attached to the Qin house, it is natural that life is good. As long as it is much better than the Mojia village that Huang Bujie is young, but who knows in the blink of an eye, the Mojia village that originally asked them for help every year has become the right place they look up to As an ordinary villager, they don''t care about the dispute among hundreds of theories. As long as they can live a good life, it is a good theory.


    Qin Qiong pondered and said, "after the new year, let the village also build a school and medical school. All the expenses come from the Qin house, so that the children of Qin family village can afford to go to school and see a doctor."


    "Thank you, sir!" the Qin family housekeeper bowed down, but he was slightly disappointed. This is not the answer that the old brothers want.


    "What''s the use? Qinjia village is not poor?" Qin Huaiyu said, "I''ll find Morton in two days and ask him to find a way to make a fortune for Qinjia village. I believe brother Mo will certainly give me a face."


    The housekeeper of the Qin family couldn''t help brightening his eyes, but he hesitated a little and couldn''t help looking forward at Qin Qiong sitting in the throne.


    Qin Qiong coughed. Naturally, he knew that the way out for Qin Huaiyu to make a fortune was to use the secret skills of Mohism. Just like Qin''s house standing in Mohism, Qin Qiong was in a dilemma between the pleadings of a group of old brothers and the contention of hundreds of theories.


    "Why is it difficult for you, my husband? I''m a strategist, so why worry about the theories of hundreds of schools? Besides, I don''t think it''s contradictory for you to build a school, learn Confucianism and use the secret skills of Mohism to enrich the Qin family village." Mrs. Qin said lightly.


    Qin Qiong is weak and leisurely at home. She is generous and generous. She spared money. In fact, the Qin family is not rich. Every year, she just relies on the reward of the emperor to eat with the city of Qin family village. Coupled with the reciprocity of Chang''an City, it is a huge expenditure. If she subsidizes money to Qin family village, she may not be able to make ends meet. On the contrary, if Qin family village is rich, Qin family will naturally take root What''s the use of Confucianism talking about benevolence and righteousness? Living in Chang''an city is difficult without money.


    "This!" Qin Qiong hesitated.


    "Husband, did you forget about selling horses?" Mrs. Qin threw a fatal blow,


    Qin Qiong''s selling horses is a well-known story for later generations. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Qin Qiong, who was on duty in Jinan, was ordered to escort the prisoners to Luzhou. Unfortunately, one of the prisoners died on the road and couldn''t pay the difference. She had to stay in Luzhou. Unfortunately, she was ill in the store. All the inventory fees she brought had been exhausted. Under the coercion of the store, she was helpless, He took his beloved horse, Huang puma, to Erxian village outside the west gate to sell it. Although later he met a group of heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties, it can be imagined how embarrassed Qin Qiong was at that time. It can be said that it was difficult for a penny to defeat the hero. Qin Qiong had the most personal experience.


    Qin Qiong suddenly turned black and said helplessly, "just as your wife said, but don''t make Mojia village difficult."


    He knew that once the Qin government opened its mouth, the Mohist village would certainly respond to whatever it asked. If the Qin government took advantage of its kindness and coveted Mohist secret skills, it would damage the reputation of the Qin government.


    "Thank you, madam, thank you, young master!" naturally, the housekeeper of the Qin family knew that it was Mrs. Qin who did the most and the young master who did the work.


    "Don''t worry, master. Naturally, Qinjia village won''t be insatiable." the housekeeper of Qinfu promised that they don''t want to be as rich as Mojia village. As long as they can get rich, they will be satisfied. After all, no one is willing to live a life of poverty.

 Chapter 429

    The same conversation is constantly mentioned in various Hou houses. After all, the name of the first village in the world is indeed too big, and the changes in Mojia village in the past year are too great. Each Hou house has its own food town, not to mention only one tenth of that in Mojia village, which is also a huge wealth. At least build a school in its own food town, Running a medical school can also make the Marquis house a good reputation.


    Merton''s catfish effect is once again prominent. Almost all the dignitaries in the food city have built schools and medical centers in their own fiefs. Many dignitaries have adopted the same strategy as Qin Qiong, using Confucianism and ink together, which not only benefits but also offends each other.


    However, not all Hou''s houses are happy to follow the example of Mojia village, with the exception of changsun''s family,


    Changsun mansion, changsun Wuji and changsun Chong sit opposite each other.


    "The first village in the world! The Mohist family really has the sacred heart of the emperor." the eldest Sun said with a gloomy face.


    Before the emergence of the mojiazi, his eldest grandson Chong was the most favored foreign minister. However, since the emergence of the mojiazi, he has been alienated from the royal family because of his marriage to Princess Changle''s close relatives, which has made him suffer from depression again and again,


    Changsun Wuji frowned and said, "I know you are angry, but you must immediately give up any behavior against Mohism."


    He is a shrewd person who can walk in and out of the dynasty hall. Changsun Wuji is the most able to figure out Li Shimin''s psychology. Naturally, he understands that Li Shimin actually supports Mohist village.


    Everyone is not surprised at this. After all, the tax of 100000 yuan per year is not a small number, and changsun Wuji is in a high position and knows much more than others. Mojia village contributes more than 100000 yuan. Mojia village is like a domino, which has brought a chain reaction to the whole Datang. Influenced by Mojia village this year, the commercial tax of the whole Datang soared by more than 30%.


    So far, the status of Mojia village is irreplaceable in the Tang Dynasty. At least before the utilization value of Mojia village is drained, if anyone moves Mojia village, it will surely receive the most severe blow from the imperial court. It is related to the interests of the royal family. Li Shimin will not show any mercy, no matter who it is.


    "Yes!" said the eldest son reluctantly.


    Chang sun Wuji sighed. He thought that Chang sun Chong, who had entered the officialdom, had calmed down a lot, but once he met the Mo family, he immediately revealed his original appearance.


    "Not to mention the policy of governing the Yellow River as a father, I owe the favor of the Mohists. Taking the Mohist village as an example, the great achievements of the Mohists are enough to prove that you have been wrongfully defeated. I reward you for your achievements, not to mention the Mohists. Even being a father in the court is not because of the empress, but because of being a father step by step. If you want to surpass the Mohists, you must have peace It''s the capital of the Mexican family. And it''s a fatal blow, otherwise it will only humiliate itself. "Eldest sun Wuji said mercilessly.


    Chang sun Chong was shocked, bowed deeply to Chang sun Wuji and said, "my child has been taught."


    Changsun Wuji nodded with satisfaction. For the changsun family, as long as the queen of changsun is here, the changsun family will be as stable as Mount Tai. The rest is to wait for the fatal blow after the opponent makes a mistake.


    "That''s the fief of our eldest grandson''s family!" asked the eldest grandson.


    Changsun Wuji thought a little: "also set up a school to build a medical school and reduce the rent for one year. As for the Mohist school, there is naturally a headache for Confucianism. The changsun family just needs to wait for the opportunity."


    "Father is wise!" the eldest son flashed into his eyes.


    Confucius Mansion.


    Kong Yingda wore reading glasses and studied the financial statements of Mojia village word by word. There was a thick pile of information about Mojia village next to her.


    "The first village in the world really deserves its name." after a long time, Kong Yingda sighed.


    "My father is too powerful in Mohism. In terms of being the first in the world, he should belong to Kongjia village in Qufu." Kong Zhiyuan, the eldest son in Confucian clothes beside Kong Yingda, was dissatisfied.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and asked, "then you say, where is Kongjia village better than Mojia village?"


    Kong Zhiyuan immediately concluded that Mozi is as famous as Confucius in terms of reputation and education. Now the compulsory education in the Mojia village is in the limelight. In terms of talent, Mozi covers Chang''an City, and even coupled with free medical care, huge wealth earned by the secret skills of the Mojia, and 100000 taxes a year, these are all things that the Confucius in Qufu can''t catch up with.


    "So, the rise of Mohism is a foregone conclusion!" Kong Zhiyuan frowned. He is the 32nd generation of the Confucius family. In his life, he has been influenced by the glory of the Confucius family. Naturally, he does not want the Confucianists to catch up with the Mohists.


    Kong Yingda nodded heavily. With such an amazing and talented leader of Mohism, the rise of Mohism is bound to be a foregone conclusion. What impressed Kong Yingda most was that although the sparrows in Mohist village have all the small and five internal organs, they still adopt the management of three public and nine ministers, the cooperation between Mohism and law, and the rule of law.


    Kong Yingda naturally knows the disadvantages of family management very well. Merton''s move can be said to eliminate the possibility of mistakes in Mojia village.


    "But news has come from Qufu asking how to deal with the rise of Mohism." Kong Zhiyuan frowned.


    Qufu is the hometown of Confucius, now the stronghold of Confucius, and the Holy Land in the hearts of Confucian scholars all over the world.


    Kong Yingda snorted coldly, "how to deal with it? Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, Confucianism is an official, while Mohism focuses on industry and unites farmers and businessmen. What is the reason for Confucianism to interfere with Mohism."


    Scholars, peasants, businessmen and Mohists have made it clear before that they give up their political ideas and specialize in ink workers. Now it seems that Merton did what he said. Because he didn''t even use the idea of Mohism to govern the Mohist village, but used the idea of Legalism to govern the Mohist village.


    The rule of law came from the Mohist school. Kong Yingda couldn''t help but think deeply. From Kong Yingda''s point of view, Confucianism might as well guard against the dormant Legalists as against the Mohist school. Kong Yingda shuddered at the independent judicial power.


    Kong Zhiyuan said radically, "Confucianism and Mohism are feuds. How can Confucianism sit back and watch the rise of Mohism."


    Kong Yingda said with a wry smile, "after all, the hundred schools of thought are just theories, but they exist attached to the emperor. For the emperor, they can only use theories that are conducive to maintaining rule, and the Mohist school can be used for the country. How can Confucianism stop if it can oppose it."


    He has lived in Chang''an City for a long time. Naturally, he knows Li Shimin''s character well. He may not interfere with the fair competition between Confucianism and Mohism, but he will never allow Confucianism to suppress Confucianism wantonly. After all, as an emperor, balance is the king. Confucianism is dominant. Is it not an imbalance?


    "Over there in Qufu?" Kong Zhiyuan asked with a frown.


    Kong Ying paused, looked at Kong Zhiyuan and said sternly, "send the details of Chang''an City back to Qufu. As for how Qufu decides, you can''t participate."


    He had a hunch that after deposing a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone, Confucianism had dominated for nearly a thousand years. Qufu would certainly not sit idly by and watch the Mohism grow bigger, and the disputes between Confucianism and Mohism would rise again. At that time, he didn''t want his son to be the first victim.

 Chapter 430

    During the whole Spring Festival, the most talked about in Chang''an city was the news that Mojia village was declared the first village in the world.


    For ordinary people, although the whole ordinary people talk about it one after another, almost no one questions nature. After all, compared with other villages, today''s Mojia village is like a paradise on earth. Everyone wants to be a member of Mojia village. Such a village is not the first village in the world, so which is it.


    At the gate of Mo mansion, there were lanterns and colorful lights, full of joy,


    Merton and Fubo are seeing off Qin Huaiyu and the housekeeper of the Qin family.


    "Brother Fu, Qin family village depends on you." the white haired Qin family housekeeper thanked Fu Bo.


    "Don''t worry, brother Qin. In a few days, Mojia village will pay a return visit and formulate ways to get rich according to the situation of your village." Fu Bo said with a smile. These days, the Marquis who own the Food City fief have been visiting and learning from the classics. Qin''s house is the tenth batch.


    Qin Huaiyu waved to Merton gratefully, and then took the Qin family housekeeper away.


    Fubo breathed a sigh of relief. They returned to the living room. They frowned and said, "young master, Mojia village has just started. How can we drive so many villages to get rich at the same time?"


    "Can''t do it!" Merton said firmly, "and the Qin government helped the Mojia village through difficulties many times. The kindness of the Mojia village will always remember that this time is the time for the Mojia village to repay."


    "But there is only one village in Mojia village. I''m afraid it''s not enough!" Fubo frowned.


    "In a few days, you personally lead the team and directly tell him that there are three ways to get rich. First, Mojia village supplies farm tools, waterwheel, improved seeds, cattle and horses at a low price, and large-scale breeding of chickens, ducks and geese in the village. During the slack season, young people can come to Mojia village to work. Within ten or eight years, they will double the income of these villages."


    Fubo nodded. In his view, these villages were not different from the Mojia village at that time. They were mainly engaged in agriculture. If this method was followed, it would be slow but most secure.


    "The second is to upgrade the workshops in these villages by Mojia village, which will give priority to the purchase of the products of these workshops," Merton said. These villages are backed by various Marquis houses, which are much better than ordinary villages. They all have their own workshops, which is much more convenient to transform. Moreover, since your majesty has designated Mojia village as the first village in the world, you must hope to have a second and third Mojia village. These Marquis houses are some good opportunities.


    As soon as Fubo''s eyes brighten, this method is also excellent. There are many industries in Mojia village. Under the same quality, a slight deviation can also drive the development of these villages.


    "What about the third?" fuber couldn''t wait.


    Merton smiled and said, "that''s selling Mohist products."


    During the external expansion of Mohist''s business territory, we have obviously felt the resistance of some local officials. Most of the officials in the Tang Dynasty were born of Confucianism and naturally had no good feelings for Mohist. In addition to imposing barriers and implementing local protection, they also made difficulties for many times, and some places and even Mohist villages could not enter at all.


    If these powerful Shiyi fiefs come forward, they represent all Hou houses, which can certainly reduce a lot of trouble, even the green light all the way. Although the dealer system is considered to have many disadvantages by later generations, it is now the best method of Mojia village.


    Fu Bo turned his worries into happiness. They are all old brothers. If they don''t succeed, I''m afraid it''s really hard to explain. Fortunately, the young master has made a plan. Once the three parties come out, they don''t say that these villages can catch up with Mojia village, but at least they will be much better than before.


    "Young master, the plaque has been done."


    Mo Da came in with a happy face. Behind him, Mo Er and Mo San jointly carried a huge plaque.


    Merton''s face was happy and suddenly rose to welcome him,


    Li Shimin''s words can''t be hung naturally. If they are damaged, I''m afraid I can''t regret it. The best way is to invite a pasting worker to personally make a plaque according to the emperor''s inscription. During the Spring Festival, there are few willing to do work. Merton still spent a lot of money to hire the best pasting worker in Chang''an city to make this plaque.


    Merton looked at the five huge words of the first village in the world on the plaque. He couldn''t help nodding with satisfaction and ordered: "send this plaque to Mojia village immediately. After the memorial archway is completed, Mojia village will hold the plaque unveiling ceremony."


    With the aura of the first village in the world, the difficulties faced by Mojia village will certainly be greatly reduced, which is of great benefit to Mojia.


    "Yes!" Mo Da said excitedly.


    Mojia village has been granted the first village in the world. Even they have honor.


    Merton thought for a while and said to Mo San, "in the future, the packaging of Mojia village will be printed with the words of the first village in the world."


    Taking advantage of this heat, Merton naturally doesn''t want to miss such a good publicity opportunity.


    Mo San nodded. Mo San is responsible for some printing business in Mojia village. Changing the packaging must be rigid again, but it''s all worth it.


    Merton''s people have taken on a new look. They can''t help sighing that although Mojia village earns huge wealth, it is like children walking in the downtown with gold bricks, without any sense of security. The children of Mojia village usually keep a low profile,


    However, since the title of the first village in the world, it means that the Mohist village is under the attention of the emperor. At the foot of the emperor, who dares to act recklessly, all the Mohist children are full of confidence. Although they usually act unchanged, Merton obviously feels that a sense of self-confidence is spreading on the Mohist children.


    "The emperor''s love! The Mojia village is really unrequited. Only he has the courage to be loyal to the death." Fubo choked when he looked at the plaque of the first village in the world.


    Merton solemnly nodded his head. He thanked the Qin house for his kindness, and so did Li Shimin. He knew that in the eighth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin paid the most attention to winning the battle of Tuyuhun.


    Merton''s eyes narrowed slightly and thought carefully. The strength comparison between Datang and Tuyuhun. Tuyuhun was full of soldiers. All of them were cavalry. In history, cavalry were the king of war, coming and going like wind and strategy like fire. Most of Datang were combined with walking and riding.


    However, in the history of war, the cavalry is not invincible in the world. The famous Macedonian team in history is the biggest enemy of the cavalry. Although the Macedonian team failed in the end, it is commendable.


    In addition, the Modao team in the prosperous Tang Dynasty was also the enemy of cavalry. Mojia village is rich in steel. Modao has very high requirements for steel, which can be met,


    In addition, the divine arm crossbow of the Song Dynasty is an excellent weapon to restrain cavalry. If it had been before, the divine arm crossbow might have been able to defeat the Mohist village, but since the Mohist village obtained the secret mechanism of Deng Ling''s family, the divine arm crossbow is no longer a secret.


    What Merton wants to give is not one, but three together to create an invincible infantry for Datang.

 Chapter 431

    "Macedonian phalanx!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin looked at the memorial in his hand, which described in detail the brilliance of the Macedonian square array, and his mind was full of thoughts.


    Merton pointed to the West and said, "Your Majesty, Macedonia is a small city-state of the far western country, adjacent to the hometown of Socrates. Its territory is only a state of the Tang Dynasty. It relies on a square array of 16 people in depth, and under the leadership of its leader Alexander, it has fought from the far western country to Tianzhu, forming a super empire with an area of ten thousand miles."


    "Hit Tianzhu, covering an area of thousands of miles?" Li Shimin was immediately moved.


    Tianzhu is the closest country in the western regions to the Tang Dynasty. It is separated from the far western country by Persia, Daqin and other places. Who would have thought that a small country could make such great achievements. Among them, the invincible Macedonian policy can be said to have made the first contribution.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "this is a time when businessmen in the western regions are familiar. Your majesty will know when you ask."


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and immediately believed it. There were many businessmen in the western regions of the Tang Dynasty. Merton could not lie about this matter. In addition, the war after war in Merton''s memorials was very detailed. He was moved by the military strategy, which could not be imagined by Merton''s three knives.


    "I didn''t think there were such heroes outside the country! I really despise people in the world!" in his opinion, Alexander''s experience is very similar to his. They both immediately beat the world and made great achievements. The only thing that makes him taste is that it seems that Alexander''s achievements are more brilliant than him.


    "This is the matrix of Macedonian policy!" Merton saw that Li Shimin believed it and stretched out his hand to offer a picture axis.


    "Oh!"


    Li Shimin was delighted at the sight of hunting. He was a great military man. He was naturally itching for this invincible battle array.


    He couldn''t wait to open the scroll. Li Shimin immediately took a breath. On the scroll, teams of fully armed soldiers stood up, each with a long gun of two feet, like a long forest of steel.


    Merton spent a lot of time on this memorial and used his new painting skills incisively and vividly. He painted several pictures in succession, including Macedonian square array formation, Macedonian square array attack formation and defense formation. Each picture is lifelike. His dense gun forest, even through the picture album, still makes Li Shimin feel cold. He has led the Xuanjia iron cavalry, Naturally, I''m afraid the cavalry are most afraid of this kind of long gun array, and the Macedonian square array is even worse. The six meter long gun is like an iron hedgehog, which makes the cavalry''s head broken and bleeding.


    "Guns are like a forest! Forge ahead!" Li Shimin couldn''t help himself excitedly.


    Merton nodded and said, "if Alexander had not died young and continued the eastward expedition, the invincible Macedonian array might have met the invincible state of Qin."


    In later generations, many people have speculated that if Alexander the great continued his eastward expedition, the first thing he would encounter would be the state of Qin, which was already the head of the seven heroes of the Warring States period. Although most people have always tended to be baptized by war, the Qin cavalry who can unify the six countries will surely defeat Alexander the great, However, it is undeniable that the Macedonian side was still one of the most powerful forces at that time, and even set a precedent for infantry to restrain cavalry for the first time.


    Although Li Shimin was also inclined to the state of Qin, he realized the strength of the Macedonian square array. However, when he saw the end, he could not help frowning and said, "unfortunately, the last Macedonian square team was still defeated!"


    In Merton''s compromise, he did not exaggerate the role of the Macedonian array, but detailed that although Li Junxian had the upper hand, he was still embarrassed. The Macedonian team opposite could maintain the formation in several rounds of shooting. It seemed that the cavalry had an advantage. In fact, they had lost half.


    "I don''t know which general is in charge of the infantry team!" Li Jing looked at the infantry team. The fully armed general couldn''t help asking. He was able to command calmly in the face of all kinds of arrows. There was a wind of great general.


    Merton bowed and said, "general Hui Li, this is general Su dingfang. I heard that general Su dingfang is proficient in walking and riding, so I specially asked general Su to command the infantry instead."


    Li Jing suddenly nodded and said, "when I attacked Turks, general Su was a forward. I was deeply impressed. He is a good general! He will become a great weapon in the future."


    Merton couldn''t help but praise Li Jing''s fierce eyes. In history, Su dingfang fought East and West all his life. From the yellow desert to the rough sea, the front was nearly ten thousand miles. He attacked the Three Kingdoms before and after, and captured his master alive. He can be described as the second generation of military God of the Tang Dynasty.


    It is recorded in unofficial history that Su dingfang studied the art of war from Li Jing, but now Su dingfang is over 40. From Merton''s point of view, this method is nonsense. However, Su dingfang is indeed a late bloomer. At the moment, Su dingfang is just like Li Jing who just came to the Tang Dynasty. He has just emerged and has shown his edge.


    With the drum, the second round begins. This round is a frontal attack.


    With the sound of drums, Su dingfang showed a firm look under his heavy armor. Recalling the attack mode of the Macedonian team that Merton personally explained to him, he waved his hand and shouted loudly.


    "Forward!"


    Suddenly, the hundred people regiment led by Su dingfang strode towards the hundred horses led by Li Junxian.


    Li Junxian tried to appease the horse under his crotch. With a finger in his arm, he was unwilling to show weakness and shouted, "a hundred horses rush!"


    The cavalry is the strongest arm. Li Junxian naturally doesn''t want to lose without fighting, and they are both proud people. In addition, Li Shimin is watching and wants to fight for a breath.


    "Boom!"


    Two pairs collided.


    However, the result was surprising. The advantage of the long wooden spear, which is one inch long and one inch strong, is too obvious. In front of the dense wooden spears, almost one cavalry faced at least five wooden spears. One by one, the elite hundred cavalry soldiers had no time to show their skills, so they were picked off one by one.


    "This!"


    Looking at the hundreds of cavalry soldiers being picked off their horses, Hou Junji couldn''t help but open his mouth. Naturally, there was no need to say more about the elite of hundreds of cavalry. However, he had no power to fight back in front of these Macedonian phalanxes.


    Li Shimin and Li Jing also immediately took a breath. This was just a drill, and they used wooden spears. If they used steel spears, I''m afraid it would be a massacre.


    On the martial arts field, under the command of Su dingfang, the spear infantry moved forward step by step, and the formation was always stable, while the hundred cavalry retreated step by step. Until the last moment, when more than a dozen spears stood against Li Junxian''s armor at the same time, Li Junxian''s weapons suddenly fell to the ground.


    This time, he was defeated. He was completely defeated and had no ability to fight back. He was also a man who had been in battle for a long time. He had never seen a dead arm that would restrain the cavalry. However, although Li Junxian was defeated, he was keenly aware of the weakness of the team, that is, on the flank and rear wing.


    The third martial arts show was an unrestricted battle.


    Li Junxian got on his horse and attacked the flanks and rear wings of the spear array without stopping. Although Su dingfang did his best to command, due to the poor flexibility of the spear array, Li Junxian finally seized the opportunity to break through the array and eventually the whole army was destroyed.


    So far, in the three performances, both sides have drawn, won and lost.


    But it seems to be a draw. You should know that Baiqi is the most elite cavalry, while the infantry team led by Su dingfang has just been established, especially the cavalry has more natural advantages over the infantry. This martial arts exercise immediately showed the power of the Macedonian team.

 Chapter 432

    "Wei Chen is ashamed. Please punish him!"


    After the martial arts show, Li Junxian and Su dingfang came to apologize to Li Shimin at the same time. Although they tied, they lost a game after all, and they lost too thoroughly when they lost.


    "What''s the crime of the two Aiqing? Today, Japan is just practicing martial arts, and winning or losing is just to sum up the gains and losses." Li Shimin said with a smile. He was very happy to get such a peerless battle array today. He knew that the infantry had a natural disadvantage when facing the cavalry, but the Macedonian square array could draw with the same number of cavalry, What a surprise.


    "You Aiqing, how about this square array?" Li Shimin turned to Li Jing and asked.


    Hou Junji shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this square array has a single situation and obvious advantages, but the disadvantages are equally serious. Once you break through the flanks and rear wings of this square array, you will lose all."


    Hou Junji can naturally see that the spear used in the Macedonian phalanx is too long to turn. Once it is broken by the enemy, it will be disastrous.


    Li Jing agreed: "it is the single formation that makes it easy to train, and when you go to the battlefield, there are cavalry to protect the flanks and rear wings."


    The attack power of the Macedonian phalanx is too amazing. On the battlefield, Datang also pays attention to cooperative operations, but it is only the cooperation of a small team of people. However, there has never been a whole army as a collective like the Macedonian phalanx. The power that erupts is too powerful.


    Li Shimin nodded. He saw the power of the Macedonian phalanx with his own eyes and immediately believed what Merton said about the strength of the Alexander empire.


    Hou Junji retorted: "this long gunman bears too much weight and moves slowly. The battlefield changes instantly. How can he give consideration to everything? Once the army is defeated like a mountain, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    Li Shimin immediately fell into a dilemma. On the one hand, he really liked the powerful attack power of the Macedonian phalanx, on the other hand, he was worried that he would be defeated like the Macedonian phalanx in history.


    Merton bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is an excellent solution. The so-called long-term attack will lose. Although the Macedonian square array has strong attack power, slow movement and inflexibility, it is also true. But let''s change our angle. What if we use the Macedonian square array for defense?"


    "Defense?" they frowned and looked at Merton in surprise.


    Merton turned to Li Junxian and said, "General Li, on the battlefield, general Su formed the Macedonian square into a circle and stood firm for help. Are you sure to break through?"


    Li Junxian subconsciously looked back at the gun forest still standing proudly in the martial arts arena. He couldn''t help but say with lingering fear: "under the same strength, even if you fight dry cavalry, I''m afraid you can''t break this array."


    For this, even Li Shimin and Hou Junji couldn''t help nodding. Once the Macedonian array was formed, it was like a huge hedgehog.


    Li Jing''s eyes flashed and vaguely guessed Merton''s plan, but he didn''t point it out. Instead, he looked at Merton with great interest and wanted to see Merton''s ability.


    Merton takes a deep breath into the airway: "As the saying goes, before soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first. Our officers and men of the Tang Dynasty have traveled thousands of miles to Tuyuhun, and the grain route is the top priority. If the grain transportation troops are trained according to the Macedonian square array, once Tuyuhun attacks the grain route, everyone holds a spear and forms a Macedonian square array. Even if Tuyuhun''s cavalry sneaks on the grain route, he will be beaten to the head and blood to ensure that food and grass are not lost."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the hearts of the people suddenly opened up. Sure enough, what the Mohists are best at is to stick to it. In this way, the defense ability of the troops escorting grain and grass has been greatly improved, and the risk of grain and grass being robbed has been greatly reduced. Even if they are really besieged, it is enough to protect themselves.


    Li Shimin was so excited that he couldn''t help himself. In this era, the importance of food and grass is self-evident. Since ancient times, many wars have been lost on food and grass. The lessons in history can be seen everywhere in the wars of Changping, Julu and Guandu. As an emperor, Li Shimin naturally knows how important food and grass are.


    Moreover, it is difficult to transport grain and grass in the western regions. Once there is a loss of grain and grass, it is almost impossible to replenish again. It is almost a lost situation. If not, Li Shimin will not issue national bonds and build a brick road to Longyou under the condition of insufficient national strength.


    "The old minister thought it was very good." Li Jing nodded with appreciation.


    In this way, the Macedonian phalanx formed into a circular array stayed in place. In this way, the poor mobility of the Macedonian phalanx was solved perfectly and became a perfect defensive force all the time.


    Hou Junji still shook his head and said, "in this way, escorting grain and grass can only be beaten passively. Rangers only need constant riding and shooting harassment. Even the strongest defense line can''t hold."


    Although Hou Junji is a tough egg, he also points out the biggest disadvantage of all infantry. In the face of cavalry, they can only be defensive. The so-called long-term defense must be lost is indeed a big taboo for all infantry.


    Merton immediately showed his signature simple and honest smile and said, "what Hou Shangshu said is that he can only be beaten passively. Naturally, he must not be beaten. So the boy came here today, he didn''t bring another weapon, which can just solve the current situation of grain transportation troops being beaten passively."


    "Oh!" Li Shimin was immediately interested. Merton''s offering of the Macedonian phalanx had surprised him, and he had never been disappointed with anything Merton offered.


    Merton arched his hand at pound and said, "father Pang, please return what the boy brought when he came."


    Pound nodded and stretched out his hand. Soon, two small eunuchs carried a box in front of the people. Merton bent over to open the box and suddenly a crossbow appeared in front of the people.


    "Bow and crossbow?" Li Jing''s heart moved.


    Bows and crossbows are indeed a sharp weapon of infantry. However, most bows and crossbows with long range are very heavy and need to be operated by many people. If they are ordinary bows and crossbows, they are not as fast and convenient as bows and arrows.


    "Weichen''s bow and crossbow is not an ordinary bow and crossbow. It''s called divine arm crossbow. This bow and crossbow is simple to operate. Weichen adds a Mohist mechanism to it, and only one person can string it easily. The most important thing is that the effective range of this bow and crossbow can reach 300 steps."


    "Three hundred steps!" everyone was surprised. They looked at Merton incredulously. They should know that the range of bows and arrows in this era is only one hundred steps, and the real lethality is only fifty steps. The range of three hundred steps is enough to change the form of the whole war.


    Li Shimin suddenly stepped forward, looked at Merton ferociously and said word by word: "are you sure it''s 300 steps?"


    Merton immediately looked innocent, pointed to the bow and crossbow under his feet and said, "this bow and crossbow is here. Your majesty will know as soon as you try."


    Li Shimin couldn''t wait to pick up the crossbow. Under Merton''s instructions, he easily loaded a crossbow.


    "This is the collimation, your majesty. Just aim the collimation at the target and pull the trigger." Merton prompted.


    Unfortunately, Li Shimin''s mind was full of 400 step range. He didn''t care about this. He picked up the bow and crossbow and pulled the trigger at the martial arts arena.


    "Buzz!"


    When everyone heard the sound, they could feel the strong attack power of the crossbow. In an instant, the crossbow roared out under the trace that everyone could hardly see.


    "Go and explore the range." Li Shimin took the crossbow, pointed to the direction of the crossbow, and ordered Li Junxian.


    "Yes!"


    Li Junxian took command and immediately rode away.


    Soon, Li Junxian rode back, holding a crossbow and arrow in his hand, and said to Li Shimin with ecstasy: "tell your majesty, a total of 320 steps."


    "Three hundred and twenty steps!" Li Shimin took a breath. The divine arm crossbow was several times the range of the bow and arrow.


    "Congratulations, your majesty, on getting this good bow." the people also congratulated in unison.


    Li Shimin laughed, loaded the crossbow again and pulled the trigger.


    "Buzzing!" the sound of bow and crossbow strings continued.


    The farthest direct can reach as many as 400 steps at a time. The lethal power of the divine arm crossbow is huge. The crossbow and arrow Merton used to drill has no blade at all, but can be nailed to the tree within 200 steps.


    Moreover, compared with bows and arrows, bows and crossbows are easy to operate and labor-saving. When firing bows and arrows, it depends on arm strength. If a normal Bowman bows and arrows 15 times in a row, he must rest, otherwise he will damage his muscles. However, for bowmen, as long as he can string up and pull the trigger, he can attack continuously. Li Shimin has fired crossbows and arrows more than 10 times in a row without any feeling of fatigue.


    Moreover, this divine arm crossbow can be operated by one person. It has a complete range and can crush archers.


    Li Jing also sighed again and again: "the world knows that Mohism is good at guarding the city, but it didn''t expect that Mohism is also unique."


    Merton nodded: "attack instead of defense, defense instead of attack. Attack and defense are one. However, both ink attack and ink defense are to protect the Tang Dynasty."

 Chapter 433

    "Congratulations, your majesty, you''ll get another unparalleled weapon!" Li Jingxi said.


    Li Shimin also laughed. The divine arm crossbow has a long range, which is really an unexpected joy. For a long time, infantry are mostly passively beaten in the face of cavalry, that is, there are large bed crossbows that can attack cavalry, but the cost is expensive and the number is small. Although the attack power is strong, it is not easy to manufacture. Naturally, its lethality is limited.


    The divine arm crossbow offered by Merton is simple, easy to operate and easy to carry. More importantly, its power is no less than that of the bed crossbow. Even ordinary soldiers holding this divine arm crossbow can threaten a veteran warrior.


    "Can this crossbow be made on a large scale?" Li Shimin asked with a fierce look in his eyes.


    Merton nodded: "Your Majesty, don''t worry. Although this crossbow adopts the technique of Mohist mechanism, it is much more complex than other crossbows, but the boy divides it into several parts, and the main part can be completed by ordinary craftsmen. Skilled craftsmen only need to make the mechanism of crossbow machine. In this way, a large number of divine arm crossbows can be assembled in a short time, and once there are parts damaged, they can be easily replaced and repaired. If He is a skilled crossbow soldier. If the crossbow machine is damaged on the battlefield, it can be repaired within 30 seconds. "


    "Fix it at thirty!"


    Li Shimin was immediately delighted that ordinary bows and crossbows are usually integrated. Once the whole bow and crossbow is damaged, it will be scrapped immediately. It takes time and effort to repair it. However, the component divine arm crossbow can be repaired on the battlefield, and its military value is simply incalculable.


    "Your Majesty, this crossbow is very important. Please give it to the weapons supervisor to make it, so as to make it complete." Hou Junji suddenly said.


    He is the Minister of the Ministry of war, and the weapons supervisor is under his rule. Naturally, he can see the value of the divine arm crossbow. Naturally, he wants to take credit under his own rule.


    "Merton, what do you think?" Li Shimin asked, looking at Merton playfully.


    Merton immediately said without hesitation: "what Hou Shangshu said is that the workshop in Mojia village is for civilian use. Naturally, it can''t make prohibited things such as bows and crossbows. It should be handed over to the military supervisor."


    Hou Junji immediately looked happy. He didn''t expect that the ink family, who had always been a thorn in the head, would cooperate so well. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help showing a satisfied smile.


    "However." Merton paused, and Hou Junji suddenly felt a bad feeling.


    "But the mechanism is one of the reasons why the divine arm crossbow can shoot so far. It is more important to make bow string steel!" Merton continued.


    "Steel for making bowstrings!" Hou Junji frowned.


    "Yes, you see, the bowstring of the divine arm crossbow is not hemp rope, silk thread and ox tendon, but a kind of soft steel originally created by Mohism, which can have such great power." Merton took the divine arm crossbow from Li Shimin and handed it to Hou Junji.


    Hou Junji found that the bow string of the divine arm crossbow was not a common bow string, but a cold steel string. He suddenly realized that this is probably the reason why the divine arm crossbow is so powerful.


    "Refining mild steel is sure to be solved by the supervisor, but I don''t know whether Lord Mo is willing to give up his love for the secret technology of steelmaking." Hou Junji turned to Merton and said coldly that he had obtained the mechanism of divine arm crossbow and wanted the secret technology of steelmaking of Mohism.


    The secret skill of steelmaking is the foundation for the prosperity of Mohist school. Everyone knows that the policy formulated by Merton for Mohist village is based on steel. Hou Junji''s request is extremely rude.


    Li Shimin and Li Jing looked moved, but they did not stop. Although Hou Junji''s request was excessive, it involved national interests after all.


    Merton sneered: "The secret technique of steel-making has appeared since the spring and Autumn period. The secret methods of steel-making include steel frying, steel pouring and steel refining. These are the only methods that will be adopted by the supervisor. I can say exactly that the boy puts the secret technique of steel-making in front of the supervisor. Without the Mohist steel-making furnace, the supervisor will not be able to make soft steel. If the supervisor is to rebuild the steel-making furnace and make the divine arm crossbow, I''m afraid The battle for fear of Tuyuhun is over. "


    After the development of steel-making technology to the level of steel-making furnace, it is no longer easy to solve by relying on the traditional secret technology. Among them, large equipment plays a vital role, and even some precision equipment itself is a secret technology. It is almost impossible in the steel-making industry in the era of a paper secret recipe.


    Hou Junji immediately looked embarrassed and stared at Merton.


    Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said, "the crossbow machine and steel string of the divine arm crossbow will be made by Mojia village. It will be used as a supervisor to make the crossbow frame. Finally, the weapon supervisor will form the divine arm crossbow."


    At present, the attack on Tuyuhun is imminent. It is the time to need the divine arm crossbow. Now the most urgent task is to make the more and the better divine arm crossbow. The tripartite division of labor is the most in line with the interests of Datang at present.


    "Yes!"


    Merton and Hou Junji responded simultaneously.


    Li Shimin raised the divine arm crossbow again, looked at it and nodded with satisfaction. The cooperation between the crossbow and the Macedonian square array must be able to solve the safety of the grain road. At the same time, he said with a little regret: "I thought I could find a way to restrain the cavalry. It seems that I''m too anxious."


    Hou Junji looked at Merton and said, "Your Majesty, how can two legs run over four legs? Only cavalry can defeat cavalry."


    "No!" Li Jing shook her head and said, "although Macedonia''s policy has many defects, it has found a way to restrain cavalry."


    Li Shimin said, "spear!"


    Li Jing shook her head and said, "it''s not necessarily a spear. As long as it''s a long weapon, it naturally has an advantage against cavalry."


    The Macedonian phalanx magnified the advantages of long weapons infinitely, so that people found that even the most elite cavalry would be hit with their heads and blood in front of long weapons like hedgehogs.


    Merton nodded deeply and said, "what General Li said is that long weapons are indeed a way to restrain cavalry."


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "unfortunately, this square array can only defend. Our Datang still lacks a weapon that can resist cavalry in field operations."


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "that''s wrong. From the point of view of Wei minister, our powerful long weapon in the Tang Dynasty is covered with the Pearl. If this weapon comes out, we will not block the ten thousand men. With a knife, the people and horses will be broken."


    "Don''t stand in the way? People and horses are broken." Li Shimin suddenly opened his eyes. He racked his brains and couldn''t think of such a powerful weapon in the Tang Dynasty.


    The generals present were also moved one after another. They thought of Datang in an instant, but they still had no clue.


    "Are you talking about strangers?" Li Jing said with a look.


    "Yes, look at the boy, the real weapon to restrain the cavalry is the unfamiliar sword." Merton nodded.

 Chapter 434

    Li Shimin suddenly realized that Mo Dao originated in the Sui Dynasty. At that time, it only existed as a special weapon. Although Mo Dao has gradually become popular in the Tang Dynasty, its users are very rare. The only chance to show his head was that Li Jing played a strange role in attacking Turks.


    Li Jing immediately nodded and said, "the strange knife is a foot long and the blade is long and narrow. The soldiers wear heavy armor and hold the strange knife. When they go down with one knife, the Turkic cavalry will die. It is really powerful."


    They nodded suddenly. Looking back, they found that the only thing that could pose such a threat to the cavalry was mo Dao.


    "Since it''s so powerful, why don''t the military play it." Li Shimin''s face sank.


    Hou Junji shook his head and said, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. Although the unfamiliar Dao is extremely powerful, on the one hand, the production of the unfamiliar Dao is very cumbersome and the mass production is very low, on the other hand, the unfamiliar Dao is too heavy and can''t be waved by non gifted people, so it is rarely equipped in the army."


    Those who use unfamiliar Dao must wear heavy armour. In addition, the unfamiliar Dao is very heavy, which makes it almost difficult for ordinary people to bear weight. They must choose those who are different from ordinary people in the army. They have few soldiers and are difficult to become an army.


    "Lord Mo is not in the army. I don''t know the specific situation. Just by guessing and conjecturing, I can see the advantages of Modao and can''t understand the disadvantages of Modao." Hou Junji is extremely insidious. He simply named that Merton is talking about soldiers on paper.


    Merton immediately retorted: "the boy is really not in the army, and even can''t explain his martial arts. But he is no stranger to Modao boy. It is among my father''s relics."


    However, Merton''s voice changed and said, "however, no one in the Mohist school can control smelting. If Mo Dao uses Mohist steel for smelting, it can certainly produce a large number of Mo Dao by modeling and casting."


    "Don''t forge and cast directly? Lord Mo is an eye opener for me. How can such a bad knife enter the battlefield? Isn''t that a joke about the lives of the soldiers?" Hou Junji sneered, like hearing a big joke.


    Even Li Jing could not help but frown. As generals, what they care most about is the quality of weapons. A hundred steel-making knife is the guarantee for soldiers to make a deep-rooted life, and it is a taboo for all soldiers to make rough weapons.


    For a moment, everyone stared at Merton and wanted Merton to give them a reasonable explanation.


    Merton felt the people''s eyes, shrugged and said: "the hundred steel-making knife needs craftsmen to forge continuously to make steel. However, the steel in Mojia village has been made into steel as soon as it comes out of the blast furnace. Naturally, it does not need to be forged.


    Merton understood that among the standard weapons of later generations, the large-scale mass-produced knives are not all cast from molds. They are as strong, practical and wear-resistant as hand forged knives. Maybe some cast weapons are not as good as some famous craftsmen, but they definitely exceed the level of most ordinary craftsmen, and even some alloy weapons, I''m afraid not Inferior to the so-called peerless sword.


    The people suddenly fell silent. They never thought that the ultimate goal of refining into steel is to make steel, and mojiazi directly refined and produced steel, so there is no need to forge again. When they realized this, they immediately took a breath of cool air. If so, the output of Modao may be unlimited.


    "But didn''t the cast steel knife have a blade?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "Don''t worry about it, your majesty. Now the Mojia village uses mechanical grinding. The villagers make their own kitchen knives and use mechanical grinding to cut the blade, which can be completed in less than a moment." Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. The Mohist polishing technology is superior to that of the Tang Dynasty. Even the hardest diamond can be ground, not to mention cutting edge for unfamiliar Dao. If you follow the Mohist method, it''s not just unfamiliar Dao. I''m afraid other weapons can also be forged by this method. In this way, the forging of weapons in the Tang Dynasty can certainly advance by leaps and bounds.


    "Moreover, if the armor of the Mudao soldiers is made of steel, it is not only stronger, but also lighter and more protective. It can at least reduce the weight of the soldiers by ten kilograms. In this way, the soldiers available for selection of the Mudao soldiers will naturally multiply."


    In this era, armor is not as fastidious as weapons. Unless senior generals and ordinary soldiers wear iron armor, if they are replaced with steel armor, the weight can be greatly reduced under the same protection.


    In this way, Hou Junji''s cross examination of Merton on paper naturally failed to break through.


    "Li Aiqing, if Modao can be mass produced, can you restrain cavalry." Li Shimin thought a little, turned his head and asked Li Jing. Among the generals, only Li Jing has used Modao array in actual combat.


    Hou Junji''s heart sank and he immediately understood that Li Shimin must have been moved. If not, I''m afraid Li Shimin wouldn''t ask like this at all.


    Hearing the speech, Li Jing said in a deep voice: "the weight of the soldiers is reduced, and the soldiers are holding strange knives. No cavalry in the world can compete with them. However, whether the cast strange knives and armor can achieve the effect mentioned by Merton needs further verification by the Ministry of military."


    Li Jing didn''t say enough, but he clearly told Li Shimin that it was feasible.


    Merton immediately bowed down and said, "there are ten thousand kilograms of Mohist steel in stock. Your majesty will know as soon as you try."


    "Ten thousand catties!" Li Shimin took a deep look at Merton. Datang was preparing to attack Tuyuhun. It was the time to need steel. He didn''t expect that the Mohists still had so many stocks. At present, he waved his hand and said: "order the military supervisor to requisition the steel of the Mohist village immediately. Use this steel to test and cast the strange knife and heavy armor. Once it is successful, he will make every effort to build it."


    "Yes!" Hou Junji ordered.


    "Also, the imperial court will buy this batch of steel at the market price." Li Shimin finally added that Merton has given him three surprises in a row today. If he forces the steel of Mojia village again, even if Li Shimin is shameless.


    Hou Junji was stunned. The ordnance supervisor was controlled by the Ministry of war and had a very unique position. However, it was the first time for the ordnance supervisor to buy steel from the outside world.


    Li Shimin looked at the long forest of guns on the martial arts field, looked at the divine arm crossbow in his hand, and thought about the array of Modao soldiers on the battlefield. Suddenly, he was full of pride. In this way, the food road of the Tang Dynasty would be carefree, the infantry would have such unparalleled weapons as Modao soldiers, and the cavalry would be protected by horse hooves. How could such a powerful force Tuyuhun be an opponent.


    At this moment, Li Shimin was full of confidence in the upcoming battle of Tuyuhun. The blood debt committed by Tuyuhun in the Tang Dynasty must be repaid by Fuyun''s father and son.


    At the moment, suddenly a eunuch hurried to the palace and bowed down in the tunnel: "tell the emperor, there is news outside the palace that the right guard general has passed away."


    "Right back general!" Merton thought a little and suddenly realized that the right back general was not the title of Jieli Khan.


    "Hasn''t the imperial doctor been sent to diagnose and treat?" Li Shimin frowned.


    The eunuch''s head was lower: "it is said that the Youwei general refused to take medicine, which suddenly died of serious illness."


    Merton suddenly realized that he had only seen one side of Jieli, that is, in Weiyang palace, Jieli Khan danced a whirlwind dance for Li Yuan under the design of Li Shimin. He still remembered Jieli Khan''s dejected look. For a high grassland eagle, he suddenly fell from the clouds, became a prisoner surrounded by everyone, and suffered all kinds of humiliation, Maybe death is a better ending for him.

 Chapter 435

    "Jerry is dead!"


    Li Jing can''t help but be in a trance. Speaking of the end of Jieli Khan, Li Jing also has a credit. In the four years of Zhenguan, Li Jing led the army to break through the Turkic court and captured Jieli Khan.


    It can even be said that Li Jing''s glory came from Jieli Khan.


    "On the battlefield, everyone has his destiny!"


    Li Jing''s heart slowly strengthened. At that time, he and Jieli Khan were enemies. If Jieli Khan was defeated, he could still save his life. If Li Jing was defeated at that time, he might fall into the hands of Jieli Khan, and his end would be even more miserable.


    Li Shimin looked up at the sky. He didn''t know whether it was joy or sorrow. Jieli Khan did not bring less threats to the Tang Dynasty. He was a sworn enemy with the Tang Dynasty, but death was like a lamp out. With Jieli Khan''s death, all hatred would be written off.


    In the Hongyi palace, Li Yuan looked at the ink magazine with his newly dyed black hair and reading glasses. After hearing the news of Jieli Khan''s death, he was stunned. The ink magazine in his hand fell to the ground, but he didn''t notice it at all.


    Li Yuan had a deeper grudge against Jieli Khan. Almost during Li Yuan''s reign, he had been threatened by Turks. Especially during Jieli''s tenure as Khan, he frequently invaded the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Li Yuan was bent on unifying the whole country and made little compromise to Jieli Khan. They fought all their lives. Li Yuan was always at a disadvantage and even humiliated many times.


    "I didn''t expect you to take a step first. This time I won!" however, Li Yuan''s tone didn''t have the slightest excitement, but had endless loneliness. Jieli Khan, who was less than 55, died, and I''m afraid he''s not far from that day.


    Suddenly, Li Yuan was bleak and depressed.


    For a moment, the news of the death of Jieli Khan spread all over Chang''an City, and many people were talking about it everywhere.


    "In my opinion, Jieli deserves what he deserves. He committed many blood crimes at the border of Datang in those years."


    "That is, your majesty is kind and keeps him alive, otherwise he can''t live until now."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an city are no stranger to Jieli Khan. In the second year of Zhenguan, Jieli Khan led 200000 troops to Chang''an city. At that time, Li Jing captured Jieli Khan in the fourth year of Zhenguan. The grand scene of offering prisoners was like yesterday.


    Ink magazine took the opportunity to make a special issue of Jieli Khan, telling the detailed process of Jieli Khan from rise to decline, and listing the gratitude and resentment between Jieli Khan and Datang one by one. The effect was surprisingly good, and it immediately sold well in Chang''an city.


    "Whoever violates the Tang Dynasty, Jieli Khan is a precedent!"


    After reading the ink magazine, they all expressed their anger.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Linghu Aiqing! Is Jieli''s funeral ready?" Li Shimin asked at the great court meeting.


    Jieli Khan lived in Chang''an City as a guest and was awarded the right guard general. However, he was a prisoner after all and was still under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of rites.


    Linghu Deyu got up and said, "tell your majesty that the funeral Department of the right guard general is already running, but his posthumous title is still up to your majesty."


    After all, Jieli Khan is a male leader of a generation. According to the rules, it should be carried out according to the emperor''s funeral and posthumous title.


    "Jieli Khan is a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty. It is his Majesty''s grace to keep him alive. In the view of Wei minister, it''s ok if the posthumous title is not granted!" an official protested loudly.


    "Yes, and Jie Li is just a right guard general in the Tang Dynasty. He can be buried as a general."


    Suddenly, many people echoed. Jieli Khan was different from the empress of Southern Chen and the empress of Southern Tang Dynasty. This was an alien race. Posthumous title was the rule of the Chinese emperor. How could Jieli Khan follow the rules of the Chinese emperor.


    Seeing the opposition of the ministers, Li Shimin couldn''t help hesitating.


    Seeing this, the eldest sun Wuji stepped out and said, "according to the minister, although Jieli is an alien, the imperial ceremony can not be lost, but your colleagues are also right. Jieli Khan has only the position of general in our Tang Dynasty. If your majesty pursues Jieli as king, you can have both its beauty."


    Chang sun Wuji is a close Minister of Li Shimin and can best guess Li Shimin''s mind. Although Jieli Khan invaded the Tang Dynasty, the two sides signed an alliance in Weishui, and the two sides agreed not to invade each other, only two years later, Li Shimin took advantage of Turkic civil strife and natural disasters to launch a northern expedition at the time of Turkic weakness and avenged one arrow.


    Although Li Shimin acted wisely in the interests of the Tang Dynasty and wiped out one of the most powerful enemies for the Tang Dynasty at one stroke, morally, Li Shimin really broke his promise. Since the Xuanwu sect, Li Shimin''s moral requirements for himself are extremely harsh. This matter has always haunted Li Shimin''s heart.


    "Moreover, his Majesty was honored as Tian Khan by the world, and Jie Li was also a Khan. Wei minister thought that he was a Khan and should be buried with the gift of the son of heaven." Fang Xuanling also said aloud.


    After all, Jieli Khan has passed away and was granted the title of king, which has no impact on the court. There is no need to tangle in this regard and appear stingy.


    "What do you think of Li Aiqing?" Li Shimin asked Li Jing. After all, the greatest hero in defeating Jieli Khan was Li Jing.


    Without hesitation, Li Jing bowed down and replied, "Weichen agrees to bury Jieli Khan with the ceremony of the emperor, so as to calm the hearts of all parts of the grassland."


    Although Jieli Khan failed. Captured in Chang''an City, but there are still many loyal tribes in the grassland. Jieli Khan died of illness and was buried with imperial gifts. In this way, all parts of the grassland will return to their hearts.


    The three leaders in the court collectively agreed to pursue the title of Jieli Khan. Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "although Jieli has no Tao, the ceremony cannot be abolished. Jieli is posthumously given as the king of righteousness."


    "Posthumous title Huang! Huang Khan!" the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty immediately moved in his heart. This posthumous title can be said to be extremely ingenious,


    Since this posthumous title recognized the identity of emperor Jieli Khan and attacked Jieli Khan''s prestige in Turks, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.


    "Tell your majesty! In addition, the son of the king of righteousness wrote a letter to the king of righteousness and left a last wish for his son to help the coffin north and bury it on the grassland according to Turkic etiquette. Please make a decision," Linghu de said.


    "Buried on the grassland!" Li Shimin frowned.


    "Your Majesty, don''t do it. It''s no less than letting the tiger go back to the mountain." Li Jing quickly stopped. Although Jieli Khan has passed away, his remaining power is still alive. If his son returns to the grassland, he will certainly be supported by all parts of the grassland. Maybe within ten years, another Jieli Khan will appear in the north of Datang.


    Li Shimin sneered and said, "since the king Guiyi has this last wish, he ordered his people to be buried, cremated and buried in the east of bashui with the gift of Turks."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the ministers said in unison.


    The east of the Ba River is the place where Jieli Khan''s soldiers reached the deepest place of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin buried him here, which can be said to have far-reaching implications. It can be seen that although Li Shimin was generous, in his heart, the alliance of the Wei River has never been forgotten.


    This is a qualified emperor.

 Chapter 436

    After they had discussed the matter of Jieli Khan, they began to deal with the government.


    "Tell the emperor, please tell me about the ten evils of Tuyuhun." changsun Wuji suddenly listed.


    Everyone was shocked and immediately knew that the real big play was about to begin. With the defeat of the Turks and the disintegration of the East Turks, Jieli Khan had long been like a toothless tiger. It didn''t matter whether life or death. At present, the most important thing for the imperial court is the upcoming battle of Tuyuhun.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin cooperates.


    In this era, the imperial court should also have a moral foundation in launching a war. Although everyone knows that the war between Datang and Tuyuhun is imperative, the necessary procedures are essential.


    With a wave of his long sleeve, Chang sun Wuji took out a long memorial from his arms and said angrily: "the minister accused Tuyuhun of one of his heinous crimes, which was to do evil for the tiger. It was established at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and all kinds of waste were waiting for prosperity. The Turks invaded year after year. Tuyuhun also followed the Turks and invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty year after year, committing numerous bloody crimes."


    "What Lord Chang Sun said is very true."


    As soon as Chang sun Wuji''s voice fell, many old ministers nodded again and again. At that time, Turks were the overlord of the grassland, and Tuyuhun was also controlled by him. When attacking Datang, Tuyuhun also sent a lot of troops, which made Datang tired of coping. It can be said that although the humiliation suffered by Li Yuan in those years was counted in Jieli Khan, Wang Fuyun of Tuyuhun was also one of them.


    "The second of the most heinous crimes is to turn your heart to the previous dynasty. Brother Fuyun and his brother will marry Princess Guanghua of the previous dynasty and be hostile to Datang."


    Although the status of Princess Guanghua has fallen sharply and insignificant after the demise of the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty naturally counts this matter in order to attack Tuyuhun,


    "The third crime! I have repeatedly committed the Tang Dynasty. This autumn, I plundered Shanzhou and sent troops to Koran and Kuo. I have repeatedly committed the Tang Dynasty. My crime can be punished."


    "The fourth crime is disrespect to the imperial court. Your majesty invited him to worship and repeatedly shirked it."


    "The fifth crime is the slander of fatuous and disabled officials. They are repeatedly provoked by the king of Tianzhu to suppress loyalty and good people and harm the people of Tuyuhun."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Tenth crime...................."


    Changsun Wuji has ten criminal evidences in a row, accusing king voyun of Tuyuhun of countless crimes.


    "Please also send troops to avenge the people of the Tang Dynasty and save the people of Tuyuhun." all the officials of the Tang Dynasty were excited.


    Li Shimin nodded and looked at Hou Junji


    "Hou Shangshu, tell your ministers about Tuyuhun.".


    Knowing yourself and the enemy can win a hundred battles. Since Li Shimin decides to use force against Tuyuhun, he will naturally spare no effort to collect Tuyuhun''s intelligence. Hou Junji is the Minister of war, and collecting enemy information is the business of the Ministry of war.


    "Yes!" Hou Junji took the order and bowed to the ministers.


    "Tuyuhun is located in the land of Qinghai. The terrain is high. Ordinary soldiers will have varying degrees of altitude reaction when they enter. The strength of our soldiers will be greatly damaged. Although there are the highland training method offered by mohou and the relief drugs, whether it is effective needs to be further confirmed."


    The people immediately felt awe struck. Since the spread of the altitude sickness in the mouth of the Mohist school, it was quickly recognized by the people. Although it broke the God''s blessing on Tubo and Tuyuhun, it was still the biggest problem perplexing the Tang army.


    "Tuyuhun pasture is prosperous and rich in Qinghai. It is a rare good horse. It has been recuperating since the former Sui Dynasty. Its troops and horses have grown, and there are 400000 people who control strings." Hou Junji said with a heavy face.


    "Strong troops!"


    All the officials were awestruck. Although Tuyuhun at the moment was not as good as the Turks in their heyday, it was not far from it. No wonder Fu Yun dared to offend the Turks again and again after defeating the Turks in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid this is the strength of Fu Yun!


    Hou Junji continued: "in Tuyuhun, although Fu Yun is old, he has quite a number of powerful generals. King Tianzhu, Murong Xiaojun and famous King are rare powerful generals. Moreover, Tuyuhun has long been on guard against our Tang Dynasty and built a fortress in a dangerous place, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack......"


    After Hou Junji told Tuyuhun''s information again, there was a sudden silence among the officials.


    Wei Zheng sighed and said, "in this way, neither geography nor people are on our side. We only have the benefit of soldiers and armor."


    Compared with ethnic minorities, the greatest advantage of Datang is in weapons.


    Li Shimin nodded. Of course, in addition, Merton also had some secret weapons dedicated to Li Shimin. Of course, these were kept secret.


    "This war is no less than the Turkic war. Please be careful," Wei Zheng said solemnly.


    Tuyuhun is really powerful at the moment. Attacking Tuyuhun is a war that Datang can''t afford to lose again. Winning Tuyuhun will certainly deter all ethnic groups in the border. Datang''s border will usher in peace again. If it fails, the victory of Datang''s previous defeat of Turks will disappear and the situation will be difficult immediately.


    Li Shimin naturally knows the importance of defeating Tuyuhun. A qualified commander will be essential to win the war. Among the generals, I''m afraid no one has ever defeated the Turkic Li Jing.


    Just considering that Li Jing is sixty-two years old, Li Shimin can''t help hesitating.


    How could Li Jing not feel Li Shimin''s intention and take the initiative to step out and say, "tell your majesty, the old minister asks for war, and you should hold your hand and allow him to return to the dynasty."


    "Well, Li Aiqing is old and strong. I''m very relieved to take the initiative to share the worries of the imperial court." Li Shimin said in his heart.


    The other officials nodded one after another. No one in the court was dissatisfied with Li Jing''s military talent. Li Jing came out. This war had a three-point chance of winning. Only Hou Junji, who was in the forefront, had a gloomy face. He was the Minister of the Ministry of war. Without Li Jing, Tuyuhun''s command of the attack would surely fall on him. What a glorious war to destroy the country, and he could only serve as a foil.


    Sure enough, Li Shimin immediately appointed Li Jing as the general manager of the Xihai road army and led the whole army. Hou Junji, the Minister of war, was the general manager of Jishi Road, and Li daozong, the Minister of punishment, was the general manager of the Shanshan road Army... At the same time, cavalry were recruited from Turkic and Qipeng departments


    Li Shimin finally looked at the end and added: "Su dingfang escorts grain and grass and is responsible for the logistics of the whole army."


    The whole audience immediately turned their attention to Su dingfang, who was listed behind the generals. This time, Li Shimin appointed generals who have been good at fighting, and handed over the most important logistics to the unknown Su dingfang, which was really surprising.


    Su dingfang was stunned and hurriedly stepped out and said, "at the end, I will take orders."


    He knew that he could get Li Shimin''s favor. It must be the performance of Mohist Zi asking him to command the Macedonian phalanx in the martial arts arena, which left an impression in front of Li Shimin, so he had this opportunity today.


    After Li Shimin finished the arrangement, he stood up and looked down on the officials and said sonorously: "I have fought all my life for all the people in the world. I am worthy of my heart. Tuyuhun has acted perversely and repeatedly committed blood cases in our Datang. How can I be a woman''s heart and fall under the iron hoof of our Datang people? Today I officially announce that Datang will fight Tuyuhun in April this year to ensure the safety of our Datang Longyou people."


    April is the breeding season for cattle and sheep. Tuyuhun is the busiest time. At this time, Tuyuhun has the least troops, which is the best time to start a war.


    "Since the Guiyi king has passed away, there is still a lack of a person who is good at Hu Xuan dance in the Weiyang palace of the Tang Dynasty. If not, let Fu Yun replace him." Li Shimin said murderously. Since a Jieli is not enough to frighten the border, he doesn''t mind another Tuyuhun king.

 Chapter 437

    Spring thunder bursts.


    The spring rain as fine as ox hair falls with the wind and falls into the ground. It is immediately absorbed by the hungry earth and turned into nutrients to nourish all things.


    "Spring rain is as expensive as oil!" Chumo sighs solemnly at the drizzle outside the building.


    It immediately attracted people''s disdain. It was clearly a burly young man, but he just moaned like a weak scribe.


    "Didn''t you hate rain before?" Qin Huaiyu said.


    Chumo blushed and gasped: "at that time, because I hated the rain and muddy land, I stepped on the mud. Now there are brick roads inside and outside Chang''an City, which are extremely clean. The rain has a different scene."


    It has to be said that Su Luosheng is indeed an official, but in a few months, the whole Chang''an City has laid several brick roads connected with Zhuque street to form a brick road network. The whole Chang''an City has taken on a new look and people''s travel is very convenient.


    "Unfortunately, we are not blessed to enjoy such a prosperous Chang''an city. Before long, we will enter the 16th guard." Qin Huaiyu lamented.


    Morton was not surprised that the three of Qin Huaiyu wanted to join the army. This is a road that the children of the general must take. Qin Huaiyu has finished their studies from the Imperial College. Naturally, it is impossible to be a civil servant. The only way is to effectively imitate their parents, invest in the battlefield and make achievements.


    "Joining the army to kill the enemy, fighting on the battlefield and becoming a generation of famous generals is the highest honor of our generals." a trace of excitement appeared on Wei Chi Baolin''s face.


    Qin Huaiyu and Cheng chumerton show a trace of expectation and are eager to try.


    Merton said: "those who can survive are famous generals, and those who die are unknown people. If you want to become a generation of famous generals, you''d better save your life first. Later, let the Mojia village make a pair of treasure armor for you and save your life first."


    "Cut!" Qin Huaiyu sniffed, "are we greedy for life and afraid of death? It''s the glory of our soldiers to wrap up our bodies in a vest."


    "How happy we will be when we are on the battlefield, killing everywhere and invincible vertically and horizontally! How can we be a shrinking bastard!" Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nodded and looked at Merton with contempt.


    "Don''t pull it down," Merton said with a smile


    The three men suddenly changed their faces. Their hardness just now was swept away. They quickly changed into a flattering expression and said, "yes, of course, the Mohist school is not an attack. Ordinary people can''t wait. How can we not."


    Mohism is famous for its non attack. The strongest thing of Mohism is defense, especially the steelmaking secret skill of Mohist village, which makes Mohist village advance by leaps and bounds in defense.


    Merton''s face was a little slow, and he looked contemptuously at the three cheap skins


    "You know," Morton said bitterly. "This is the Mohist school. It uses the hardest steel. Coupled with the Mohist''s non attack secret skills, ordinary swords will hurt you at all."


    The three of them were immediately interested. Despite what they said just now, the swords on the battlefield had no eyes. A pair of treasure armor was equivalent to a person''s second life. They didn''t enjoy enough good years, so naturally they wouldn''t refuse.


    Since the imperial court has decided to attack the Tuyuhun Chaoyi, the war machine of the whole country has been in operation. Like Qin Huaiyu, there are not a few people recruited into the army, and even all the war materials begin to tilt towards the military.


    After the Spring Festival, the steel-making workshop in Mojia village, which has just started, does not stop day and night. Every day, it produces a large amount of steel for the military. At this time, the huge industrial advantages of Mojia village are no doubt. The whole Mojia village is like a huge industrial beast. A large number of raw materials are swallowed and processed in Mojia village. It immediately became strategic materials.


    Suddenly, a sound like a heavy thunder came, and the whole champion building shook involuntarily.


    "The thunder is so loud that it startles you!" Qin Huaiyu said.


    Yuchi Baolin and Chumo frowned, shook their heads and said, "no, it''s not thunder."


    "Who can make such a noise except Tianlei?" Qin Huaiyu retorted.


    Suddenly, Merton rushed to the window and looked in the direction of xuandu temple. In this world, it is really comparable to the existence of the power of heaven and thunder, that is the gunpowder refined by the Taoist waidan sect.


    "Hurry! Go to xuandu Temple immediately!"


    Merton immediately rushed down the fish champion building, jumped into the carriage and ordered tiean. With such a loud noise, there is only one possibility, that is, there is a problem with gunpowder.


    When Qin Huaiyu saw Merton''s expression, they knew that the situation was serious. They jumped into the carriage and followed him.


    "Drive!"


    Facing the drizzle, the four wheeled carriage sped along the brick road and soon came to the xuandu temple.


    At the moment, outside the xuandu temple, it has long been under martial law by a group of Taoists. The surrounding believers want to come in and are blocked out one after another.


    "Taoist priest, why is there the sound of thunder after xuandu temple!"


    "But Raytheon showed up!"


    "Or which Taoist priest became an immortal!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Believers asked one after another, and even believers with deep faith knelt down and prayed towards the back mountain of xuandu temple.


    "This is just a lightning strike in the back mountain, causing a fire. There is no immortal manifestation." the Taoist of xuandu temple had been instructed and replied routinely.


    The four of Merton got out of the carriage and immediately took a breath of cool air. In the mountain behind xuandu temple, thick smoke rushed into the sky. Even if the rain had gradually increased, they still couldn''t suppress it, and accompanied by bursts of roaring voices.


    Under the leadership of Merton, the four soon reached the main gate of xuandu temple.


    "Please come back. Xuandu temple has something to do today. It''s inconvenient to receive guests." the guard Taoist stretched out his hand and stopped the four people.


    Merton was about to speak. After the main gate of xuandu temple, a young Taoist came over. It was Li Chunfeng, Yuan Tiangang''s Apprentice.


    Li Chunfeng waved his hand and said, "this is Lord mo of the Mojia village. He is a distinguished guest of the xuandu temple. The Lord of the temple has ordered that there should be no obstruction."


    "Mojiazi!" the guarded Taoist priest was stunned. After the Taoist meeting, the reputation of mojiazi in xuandu temple was at the height of the sun, and the Taoist priests naturally remembered it.


    "Thank you, Taoist priest Li." Merton arched at Li Chunfeng.


    "Mo Hou, please come in. The master is waiting." Li Chunfeng obviously has been ordered and has been waiting for Mo Dun here for a long time.


    Merton nodded and led Qin Huaiyu into the xuandu temple and went straight to the back mountain.


    Before reaching the back mountain, Merton smelled a pungent smell of gunpowder, and the four people couldn''t help frowning.


    The four quickly found an upwind position. Along the gap of thick smoke, they saw a mess in the back mountain of xuandu temple. Houses collapsed and trees were broken. They couldn''t help taking a breath. What a powerful force it would be to be so terrible.


    "This is the power of God!" Qin Huaiyu said with a frightened face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, it''s human power."


    Seeing such a tragedy, Merton was in a trance. He seemed to release a demon in the world, a demon that continued to devour human life.

 Chapter 438

    "This is terrible!" Qin Huaiyu looked at the mess on the ground and couldn''t help smacking her tongue.


    In the back mountain, the fire was filled with flames from time to time. With the sound of explosions, Taoist priests lined up with water basins to fight the fire. Unfortunately, it was a drop in the bucket and it was difficult to work. In addition, the thick smoke increased the difficulty of fighting the fire.


    "Why not let believers outside the temple come in? In this way, there will be more rescue workers and fire fighting faster." Chumo frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is a confidential place. It involves a lot. We''d rather lose it all than live in the outside world."


    Qin Huaiyu''s three hearts suddenly looked at each other. They couldn''t help showing a trace of horror. They immediately knew that they had touched a great secret today.


    "Besides, it''s too late now." Merton said gloomily looking at the diffuse fire.


    He knows too much about the flammability of gunpowder than others. Once gunpowder is ignited, the fire caused will be irreversible. In addition, there are so many raw materials stored here, most of which are flammable, which is even more difficult to extinguish.


    "Immeasurable God! Lord Mo is indeed a wise man." a heavy voice sounded behind the four people.


    When Merton looked back, the middle-aged Taoist priest in Taoist robe stood behind him. It was the imperial supervisor offering wine to Yuan Tiangang. Yuan Tiangang was spotless, but the Taoist robe under his feet was covered with ashes and looked solemnly at the fire in front of him.


    Although there was a trace of intolerance on his face, there was firmness in his eyes.


    As a Taoist leader, he naturally knows how much gunpowder here attaches to Li Shimin. Since the accident has happened, what he can do is try his best to make the final remedy.


    "Master, the water dragon cart of the fire government yamen has arrived and asked to enter the xuandu temple to put out the fire." at this moment, Li Chunfeng hurried to report.


    Yuan Tiangang''s eyes brightened, then shook his head and said, "go back to the fire government Yamen and say that the fire in xuandu temple has been controlled. Don''t bother the fire government Yamen."


    Qin Huaiyu stared at the spreading fire in front of them, and the ashen Taoist priests carrying wooden pots to put out the fire. They couldn''t believe it. They looked at the imperial eunuch offering wine and lied with their eyes open.


    "This!" Li Chunfeng hesitated and said.


    "You just do it. If you have something to bear for the teacher," Yuan Tiangang said firmly.


    As soon as Li Chunfeng gritted his teeth and was about to turn around, Merton suddenly said, "Taoist Li, stop. If you don''t let Mo go and talk to the fire government yamen!"


    Li Chunfeng turned to look at Yuan Tiangang. Yuan Tiangang nodded expressionless. Li Chunfeng stepped aside.


    Merton took Qin Huaiyu with him and rushed to the main gate of xuandu temple. He saw the chief officials of the fire government yamen waiting anxiously at the door. Putting out the fire is the responsibility of the fire government Yamen. In addition, xuandu temple has a special status. If the fire is allowed to spread, there will be a big accident at that time, but he can''t eat all he can.


    But he hurried to put out the fire, but he was blocked by xuandu temple. If xuandu temple had not been in a special position, he would have ordered to break in.


    "Lord Mo!" seeing Merton coming, the Chief Officer immediately brightened his eyes. He had seen Merton. First, he helped the fire government yamen establish the city''s early warning system, and then helped improve the water dragon car. Naturally, he was deeply impressed.


    Merton walked into the front and said, "you''ve worked hard. Please stay outside the view for the time being and give me the water dragon car."


    "This!" the chief official was immediately embarrassed. It was their responsibility to put out the fire. If it was in the hands of others, he would not be late if there was a problem.


    Merton took a step closer and whispered, "the less you know about something, the better."


    The chief official suddenly thought of the strange performance of xuandu temple. Suddenly, he made a quick decision and waved his big hand: "give the waterwheel to Lord mohou."


    Soon, the four men of Merton pulled one water dragon car to the back mountain. Under the guidance of Merton''s hands, Qin Huaiyu quickly started. Soon, the first water dragon car began to gush out of the water, and then one water dragon car sprayed out. The fire of xuandu temple was brought under control.


    "Drive!"


    Outside the xuandu temple, teams of fully armed cavalry came running.


    "Baiqi!"


    The fire administrator was surprised. As an official in Chang''an City, he naturally knew the dress of Baiqi, and knew that Baiqi was under the personal command of the emperor. Ordinary generals had no right to mobilize. He didn''t expect that the fire in xuandu temple could stir Baiqi out.


    Li Junxian turned over and dismounted. Seeing the thick and long smoke from the mountain behind the xuandu temple, he couldn''t help frowning and waved his big hand and said, "block the xuandu Temple immediately. From now on, the xuandu temple is allowed to enter and not go out."


    "Yes!" a group of hundreds of riders immediately scattered their horses and packed the xuandu temple.


    The fire chief officer was lucky. He had some doubts about Merton''s words before. Now that doubt had disappeared. If they entered the xuandu temple to put out the fire, I''m afraid they would be trapped in the xuandu temple, and he couldn''t help feeling grateful to Merton.


    Neither Merton nor yuan Tiangang was surprised at the arrival of Baiqi. There was an accident with the gunpowder in xuandu temple. It would be strange if Li Shimin didn''t send someone to come?


    Li Junxian looked at the ruins in the back mountain and said coldly, "pass on your Majesty''s instructions, spare no effort to rescue xuandu temple, and thoroughly investigate the responsibility of the fire."


    "Where is Taoist Shenxiao?" Li Junxian frowned and shouted.


    Merton was also surprised. It was Taoist Shenxiao who was responsible for making gunpowder. From beginning to end, Merton had never seen Taoist Shenxiao.


    "Taoist brother Shenxiao has eclosion. The fire spread at that time, and I''m afraid he was buried in the sea of fire before he had time to escape." the ashes faced eldest son lamented. If the eldest son didn''t make a sound, he wouldn''t recognize that the usual fairy eldest son was dressed like this.


    "Taoist Shenxiao is dead!"


    Merton was shocked. I can''t believe it.


    "Live to see people, die to see corpses." Li Junxian said mechanically in a cold voice.


    Suddenly, a large number of soldiers rushed to the fire site, orderly division of labor and cooperation, pieces of ruins were quickly sorted out, some afterfires were quickly extinguished, and at the same time, a miserable body was carried out, a full 35.


    The whole scene was desolate. After a big explosion, the Taoist waidan sect was almost destroyed, and only half of the eldest son and other people survived.


    Merton shook his head secretly. Although he knew that the formula of gunpowder must have been included in the palace by Li Shimin, he could not make up for the loss of so many talents of the Taoist waidan sect for a long time.


    At the same time, Merton felt guilty. Gunpowder was a Taoist thing, and it was not easy for the Mohists to intervene. Although he also reminded the Taoist waidan sect to be careful, it obviously didn''t work.


    "If..."


    As soon as the idea arose, Merton immediately denied it in his heart. Mohism is just a family''s word. How can you do everything yourself and take the credit alone.

 Chapter 439

    When Taoist priest Shenxiao''s body was carried out, Morton felt very sad and heavy. It can be said that Taoist priest Shenxiao had such an experience. Morton had a great responsibility. If Morton hadn''t broken through Taoist priest Shenxiao''s deception, Taoist priest Shenxiao might still live in the Tang Dynasty.


    "When you hear the word in the morning, you can die in the evening! Mo Taoist friends should not be guilty. Instead of sinking in the wrong way, Taoist priest Shenxiao will die well if he proves the word by himself." Yuan Tiangang seems to be able to penetrate the hearts of the people.


    Merton felt a sudden connection in his heart and said firmly: "Among the hundreds of schools of thought, which one is not brilliant and poor, specializes in its own knowledge, and the doctor tastes a hundred herbs and is poisoned, but the dead. Li Daoyuan writes Shuijing notes, travels all over the north and south of the river and through the mountains and forests, and encounters life and death crises. The Mohist specializes in machinery, and there are not a few disabled people. The strategists write the art of war, and how many people die in battle. We are in the crisis today, It is to pave the way for future generations. "


    Yuan Tiangang nodded. Although the big bang suffered heavy losses, it really confirmed that the road of Taoist waidan sect was the right way, not the illusory way of Dan.


    Morton solemnly saluted the body of Taoist priest Shenxiao and said, "let''s go, Taoist friend Shenxiao. We''ll follow you in the future."


    Everyone looked solemn. Although all schools of thought had different ideas, their desire for knowledge was the same. Although Taoist priest Shenxiao suddenly died, the earth shaking explosion was the best evidence to prove the way Taoist priest Shenxiao wanted.


    "General, all the remains have been found, and no one has been left out." a soldier came to report.


    Li Junxian immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the number is right, the accident can be characterized as an accident, which is much simpler.


    However, Li Junxian was not careless and said, "come on, go and invite the best works in Chang''an City, verify their identity one by one, and ask Taoist yuan to cooperate."


    Yuan Tiangang joined hands and said, "General Li, rest assured that xuandu temple will fully cooperate."


    Li Junxian nodded with satisfaction. The matter is very important and can''t be avoided.


    "General Li, have you investigated the cause of the accident?" Merton asked hurriedly.


    Li Junxian nodded and said, "according to the current evidence, the first place where the fire broke out was the place of Taoist Shenxiao, and then spread rapidly, so that many people had no time to escape and were buried in the sea of fire. Such a rapid and fierce fire is really the only one in my life."


    "If only the fire would not have killed so many people, but in the fire, it was accompanied by bursts of sound like thunder and the destruction of houses and trees."


    Li Junxian saw the scene of the fire and saw a huge circular shock wave. Even the ground was raised three feet. There was a strange smell in the whole fire.


    Merton knew in his heart that the greatest power of gunpowder was not in the flame, but the huge impact generated at that moment, which was the root of destroying everything.


    "Before the order comes from the palace, continue to block the xuandu temple and can''t let anyone out of the xuandu temple." Li Junxian ordered the hundred cavalry soldiers.


    "Yes!" the hundred cavalry officers and men took command.


    Li Junxian then turned to Merton and others, "let''s go. I believe your majesty has been in a hurry."


    They all took a deep breath and saw the power of gunpowder. Merton and Yuan Tiangang understood how important it was for the Tang Dynasty. Now it will be Li Shimin''s accountability.


    Tai Chi palace,


    Li Shimin sat on the Dragon chair with a gloomy face and listened to Li Junxian report on the situation of the mountain behind the xuandu temple.


    On its right, Li Jing and Hou Junji, two military ministers, watched. The big bang in xuandu temple has exposed gunpowder to the secular world. Naturally, there is no need to hide it from the military.


    When they heard Li Junxian''s report, they couldn''t help raising their eyebrows and looked at the opposite respectfully to Merton and Yuan Tiangang.


    No one thought that the two Murdochs secretly produced such earth shaking weapons, which are unique weapons tailored for strategists to destroy cities and pass.


    Li Jing''s eyes suddenly lit up. He suddenly thought that in the court hall, Merton insisted on encouraging the Tang Dynasty to attack Tuyuhun. When Li Shimin asked whether the Mohists had weapons to destroy the city and pass, Merton didn''t mean anything.


    Even Hou Junji also reacted and was surprised to sweep around Merton and Yuan Tiangang. He couldn''t help taking a high look at the details of these hundreds of schools of thought.


    "In this way, not only the refined gunpowder was destroyed, but also Taoist priest Shenxiao died." Li Shimin pressed his voice, and anyone could feel Li Shimin''s suppressed anger.


    The big bang at xuandu Temple gave Li Shimin a thorough insight into the power of gunpowder. At the same time, he realized how heavy the loss of the big bang was. Once the gunpowder was destroyed, the second most heavy loss was the death of Taoist priest Shenxiao.


    Gunpowder is still under development. Taoist priest Shenxiao, who got the secret recipe of gunpowder, is like a madman. He puts all his energy into gunpowder development. According to Taoist priest Shenxiao''s routine secret report, the development of gunpowder is about to be perfect. It can be said that the value of a Taoist priest Shenxiao is that 10000 war horses will be put in front of Li Shimin.


    "Ministers are guilty." Yuan Tiangang bowed down and pleaded guilty. Anyway, it happened in xuandu temple. In addition, he was the leader of Taoism, and the responsibility naturally fell on him.


    "Have you ever found out the cause of the explosion?" Li Shimin took a deep breath and pressed down his anger a little.


    Li Junxian nodded and said, "judging from the current traces, it is preliminarily determined as an accident, and the hundred cavalry officers and men are still conducting further investigation."


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little. As long as the secret recipe of gunpowder was not leaked, things were not the worst. He was also more inclined to the judgment of Baiqi. When Merton first showed the power of gunpowder to Li Shimin, there were no outsiders, even the military, except the connection between Mohist school and foreign Dan school. Outsiders could not know the function of gunpowder.


    "I''m ashamed. It''s my family''s poor fortune. I can''t afford to kill such a sharp weapon. That''s why heaven is angry and punished." Yuan Tiangang pleaded guilty.


    Now it is the Taoist School of inner alchemy. The Taoist School of inner alchemy, which has always advocated tranquility and inaction, naturally doesn''t like the sharp weapon of gunpowder. After the explosion of xuandu temple, the theory of heaven punishment became popular in xuandu temple.


    "Heaven''s punishment, I think it''s negligence!" Li Shimin said coldly. The gunpowder is flammable. At the beginning, Merton had repeatedly reminded the waidan sect to prohibit the source of fire. If the waidan sect paid attention to it, the accident might be avoided. He saw with his own eyes how Merton made gunpowder, which is an ordinary thing. How could there be heaven''s punishment.


    Hou Junji moved and said, "Taoist yuan, Taoism advocates quietness and inaction and pursues the way of heaven. It is understandable that Taoism is not good at killing and cutting things. However, our military department advocates killing and cutting. It would be better if the weapons supervisor of the military department was responsible for making this gunpowder."


    Strategists don''t believe in heaven''s punishment. For them, the more powerful the weapon is, the more they like it. With such a sharp weapon in hand, strategists even dare to fight against heaven and earth.


    Yuan Tiangang looked up at Hou Junji, frowned and said faintly: "as long as the strategist can ensure that the gunpowder will not explode for the second time, Taoism is naturally happy to see its success."


    Hou Junji immediately concluded that although the cause of the gunpowder explosion was characterized as accidental negligence, even Taoist Shenxiao, who was in charge of gunpowder, died. The price was too high, and the fire covered everything. It was impossible to know what caused the gunpowder explosion. He could not guarantee that there would be a second accident.


    As soon as Hou Junji turned his eyes, he couldn''t help seeing Merton, who was silent as soon as he came in, and said in his heart, "Lord Mo is involved in the production of gunpowder, and his intelligence is famous in Chang''an city. I don''t know if there is a way to solve the hidden danger of gunpowder explosion."


    As soon as Hou Junji''s voice fell, everyone immediately looked at Merton.


    Li Shimin''s eyes could not help showing a glimmer of expectation. The power of gunpowder has been obvious to all. If the problem of gunpowder explosion is not solved, it will be like an unmanaged beast that hurts itself before hurting others.


    Although Merton knew that this was Hou Junji''s method, it was not the time to worry. He pondered: "in the final analysis, the gunpowder explosion was ignited by the fire source. In order to avoid accidents again, it is necessary to eliminate all things that may cause the fire source from contacting the gunpowder."


    Yuan Tiangang frowned and said, "Lord Mo''s words are reasonable, but Shenxiao Taoist friends are not reckless. Knowing that gunpowder is flammable, it is impossible to ignite a fire in the gunpowder workshop."


    Morton shook his head and said, "gunpowder is different from other things. Even a small spark may ignite it. If you let the boy see, there are too many ways to ignite gunpowder in addition to our common fire folds."


    "I''d like to hear the details!" Yuan Tiangang asked.


    "First of all, lightning can strike trees and cause fires. It can be seen that lightning can also cause fires," Merton said.


    Yuan Tiangang nodded. There were not a few lightning strikes that caused forest fires in history.


    Hou Junji immediately sneered and said sarcastically, "Lord Mo, you don''t really think that the gunpowder explosion in xuandu temple was caused by a natural punishment. It was lightning. It was spring thunder. It was all heavy thunder. But no one in Chang''an city had seen lightning."


    Yuan Tiangang immediately looked embarrassed.


    Merton shook his head and said, "I''m just talking about the possibility of fire. Moreover, if we wear a mink coat in winter and strip at night, we will find that there will be small lightning on the mink coat. If we wear a mink coat and touch gunpowder, it may be a possibility of fire."


    "Is that why the fire broke out?"


    People could not help but open their mouths. Who could have thought that the clothes they were wearing could also catch fire.


    "In addition, the collision of flints and stones and the attack of swords and swords will cause sparks, so the gunpowder workshop should also take strict precautions against iron tools." as soon as Merton said this, people couldn''t help nodding. This problem is very common, but when Taoist priest Shenxiao was in charge, it was not taken precautions at all. It seems that Taoist priest Shenxiao''s accident is by no means accidental.


    "In addition, according to Mohist statistics, if the accumulation is too high for a long time, spontaneous combustion will occur. Gunpowder workshops should avoid accumulation for a long time, and even some phosphorous fires can spontaneous combustion at room temperature,......" Merton listed the phenomena that can cause fire in nature one by one.


    The people couldn''t help but smack their tongue. Who could have thought that there were so many reasons for the fire? They couldn''t help looking at Merton with surprised eyes. How boring the people of the Mohist school should be, and they could specialize in such unpopular knowledge.


    "Of course, these phenomena will catch fire under specific circumstances, but gunpowder is the most flammable. Even if there is a possibility, it must be prevented. In addition, gunpowder should also be made in an open place. Once it is made, it should be transferred and sealed immediately. In this way, even if there is an accident, it will not cause heavy losses," Merton said solemnly.


    Everyone nodded together. If there is no gunpowder accident, it will cause earth shaking and heavy losses. Naturally, we should be foolproof,


    "Paying attention everywhere is knowledge. I have been taught." Yuan Tiangang sighed.


    After Merton''s analysis, people suddenly found that it was not strange that Taoist Shenxiao had an accident, but I''m afraid it was strange that there was no accident.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "gunpowder is very important. Recently, it is related to the battle of Tuyuhun. Far away, it is the grand plan of the Tang Dynasty. I am ready to close the gunpowder production to the imperial court. I set up a firearms supervisor to make gunpowder and develop gunpowder weapons for the Military Ministry."


    "Yes!"


    Everyone said in unison.


    Yuan Tiangang breathed a sigh of relief. Gunpowder is hot in Taoism. In addition, Taoist Shenxiao has passed away and can be handed over to the imperial court. Moreover, Taoism has already contributed to the gunpowder formula, so there is no need to add details.


    Hou Junji showed a happy look. The power of gunpowder was huge. He had been excited for a long time. If the military department could control it, it would add a sharp weapon out of thin air.


    "Merton is the firearm supervisor offering wine and is responsible for rebuilding the gunpowder workshop. Before April, enough gunpowder must be made for the battle of Tuyuhun. If similar events happen again, they will be severely punished." Li Shimin looked at Merton.


    "Yes!"


    Merton got up and took orders.


    No one was surprised by this appointment. After the death of Taoist Shenxiao, Morton was the only one who knew the most about gunpowder. I''m afraid it can only be done by taking advantage of the strong industrial capacity of the Mohists to produce enough gunpowder before April to supply the battle of Tuyuhun.


    Li Junxian immediately looked at Merton with a green face. When ordinary people entered the officialdom, they all started from the bottom, and Merton suddenly achieved the position of offering wine. I don''t know how much higher the starting point is than ordinary people.


    Hou Junji sneered in his heart. It is said that the Mohist family will certainly enter the Ministry of people or the Ministry of industry as an official in the future. Who could have thought that the first official of Merton was the Ministry of war. As long as the Mohist family enters the Ministry of war, he is not allowed to take the opportunity to control the Mohist family.


    However, he was not happy for long. Merton bowed and said, "the firearm supervisor is closed, and the gunpowder formula is the top priority. Although the firearm supervisor belongs to the Ministry of war, please follow the example of Baiqi and be directly responsible to your majesty, so as to ensure the perfect gunpowder formula."


    When Hou Junji heard the speech, his heart suddenly burst and he couldn''t believe looking at Merton. He didn''t expect Merton to play such an abacus. In this way, he could not only get out of the control of the military department, but also become the confidant of the emperor.


    "Yes!" Li Shimin said.


    In this era, the of gunpowder is comparable to the importance of nuclear ~ bombs to the country in later generations. It can be said that it is most appropriate for Merton to let the firearms supervisor be directly responsible to Li Shimin. Li Shimin can naturally know the power.

 Chapter 440

    "It''s awesome for the younger generation!" Li Jing sighed as she walked out of the Tai Chi hall and looked at Merton behind her.


    When the young man entered the officialdom, he was in charge of the case alone. It can be seen that Merton''s position in Li Shimin''s heart, but Li Jing was a late bloomer and wasted his life. After he was 40, he really showed his ambition. He couldn''t help feeling when he saw that Merton was young and in a high position.


    What''s more valuable is that Merton''s youth occupies a high position, but it can be convincing. After all, Merton''s brilliant achievements in the construction of Mojia village are there. In contrast, managing a firearms supervisor is nothing, and Merton''s prevention method of gunpowder has conquered everyone.


    When Merton heard the speech, he immediately smiled and said, "Duke Wei flattered me. I was just involved in officialdom, but I didn''t expect to join the Ministry of war. Duke Wei is the God of war of the military. I admire him for a long time. It''s a pity to hear that Duke Wei has compiled a Book of art of war and hasn''t read it."


    Li Jing said angrily: "no, I''m about to finish my war book. Since I saw your boy''s Macedonian battle array, divine arm crossbow and Mo Dao, I suddenly feel that there are many loopholes. I haven''t had time to modify it. I see the power of gunpowder. I''m estimated to push it down again."


    The Weigong art of War written by Li Jing is based on his own war example. Merton threw several powerful weapons in a row, which immediately made Li Jing''s war book full of loopholes. If future generations go to war according to Li Jing''s art of war and encounter the weapons donated by Merton, they may lose more and win less.


    Merton smiled cunningly: "Lord Wei can not be busy revising it first. In my opinion, there are many wonderful war examples in the far western country, such as the Roman Legion who defeated the Macedonian team. The war involved also has many advantages. In addition, there is an extreme religious army in places such as big food. This army is extremely fanatical, fearless and invincible. There are also Greek island countries......"


    Merton told several wonderful cases in a row, especially the three hundred Spartan warriors, which made Li Jing''s blood boil and his heart itch.


    "Can Mohism have these war cases at the moment?" Li Jing couldn''t wait to say.


    "Don''t worry, Duke Wei. Once the imperial court defeats Tuyuhun and the silk road is unblocked, these war cases will continue to spread to the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Duke Wei will be inclusive and gain something." Merton said.


    "Cultivating both at home and abroad!" Li Jing''s eyes flashed. The Macedonian square array has shown Li Jing the merits of foreign military. If Weigong''s art of war can be compatible with China and foreign countries, it will certainly achieve great success.


    "In this way, I''m afraid my military book will take shape for a long time." Li Jing said with a wry smile.


    Merton laughed and said, "good books are not afraid of late. If Duke Wei can study both at home and abroad, it will be a blessing for our officers and men in the Tang Dynasty."


    When passing the military headquarters, Merton bowed down to see Li Jing off. Then he quickly walked out of the palace.


    "The firearms warden''s sacrifice is directly under your majesty." Qin Huaiyu, who had been waiting outside the palace, looked at each other.


    After rescuing xuandu temple, Qin Huaiyu and the three of them certainly knew how powerful gunpowder was, and now such a powerful weapons workshop is directly under the command of Merton.


    "So you''re offering wine now," Chumo said bitterly.


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin realized that if they were to enter the army, they would start from the grass-roots level, although they would start from a higher starting point than ordinary people. Merton was also a preliminary official, and even directly took charge of the first division and held the position of offering wine.


    You should know that Kong Yingda''s position of sacrificial wine in the Imperial College is from the position of the third grade. Although Merton''s firearms sacrificial wine has not been rated, it is at least much better than their starting point.


    "So, when we meet in the future, we still need to salute you?" Wei Chi Baolin said with toothache.


    What''s more embarrassing is that although the firearms supervisor directly belongs to the emperor, he still belongs to the Ministry of war. Merton will have many opportunities to meet them in the future.


    "Of course, you wait for a small soldier. Don''t salute quickly when you see me. Be careful to punish you for disrespect to the superior officer." Merton said angrily.


    Qin Huaiyu said angrily: "the firearm supervisor is still an empty shelf. You dare to be so rampant without an official or duty. Let''s go together and teach a good lesson to this traitor."


    The three of them rushed up and immediately pressed Merton under them.


    "Dare to take a black hand!


    "Wei Chi Baolin, you dare to hit my handsome face. When I take office, I will settle accounts in the autumn."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The four people frolicked and soon left the imperial city.


    "Young master is an official!"


    When Merton returned to the ink house, there was a sudden jubilation in the ink house.


    "God has eyes. With the blessing of Mohist ancestors, the young master finally became an official, and the master has successors." Fu Bo was so excited that he rushed into the ancestral hall in the Mohist house and offered sacrifices to Mo lie.


    "Don''t exaggerate!" Merton looked at the flustered people in the ink house and didn''t understand.


    In fact, Merton didn''t know that at the beginning, the Mohist school had fallen to the extreme. In order to save the Mohist school, merlie broke his bridges and joined the anti Sui camp, which exhausted the last details of the Mohist school. Only then did he get the Marquis and lay the foundation for Merton today.


    Although it is said that Merton could lead the rise of Mohist village without the position of marquis, there is absolutely no such situation today.


    In the impression of the Mohists, although the Mohists have given up their political ideas, only by becoming an official in the DPRK and making contributions can they maintain the existing situation of the Mohists. I''m afraid it''s most appropriate to never join the military again.


    "Master, if there is a spirit in heaven and you see the prosperity of Mohism, you can rest in peace under the nine springs. Now, the young master will inherit the master''s will and follow the master''s road in those years, and you will be able to realize the revival of Mohism." in front of mohlie''s holy throne, Faber pulled Merton to burn incense and pray solemnly.


    Merton obeyed and worshipped his father he had never met. Although he had never seen him before, in the mouth of a group of old people in the Mojia village, Merton had long recognized his father with too many burdens. The situation faced by merlie at that time was much worse than that faced by Merton now. Merlie was a pure man, a righteous man dedicated to reviving the Mojia and devoting his life to it.


    Otherwise, we would not gather a group of people from Mojia village. Even after many years of death, Mojia village is poor and still let people die to follow, which is also admired by Merton.


    At the same time, the news of Merton''s official seal soon spread throughout the officialdom of Chang''an city.


    "Firearms prison offering wine!"


    Although people don''t know what the purpose of the firearm supervisor is, they know the position of offering wine. It''s a high position that ordinary people can''t reach in their life, and Merton has ascended to the sky step by step. What''s more intriguing is that Kong Yingda is offering wine to the Imperial College, while Merton is offering wine to the firearm supervisor. The representatives of Confucianism and Mohism in the Imperial Hall are both offering wine positions, which makes people think deeply.


    In the court hall, Li Shimin''s appointment of Merton was soon issued to the three provinces and six ministries.


    "In ancient times, Ganluo was twelve years old, and now there are young people of the MOH family offering wine. It''s really a young hero from ancient times!" many people and officials couldn''t help sighing that they can enter the court hall. Which one is not today after decades of efforts.


    In the military headquarters, Hou Junji put a big seal on his expressionless face. Merton was not under his jurisdiction at all, but did not listen to the propaganda.


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, sighed with a sigh. If Merton could come to the Ministry of civil affairs as an official and use Merton''s means like the God of wealth, it would surely increase the financial resources of the imperial court.


    Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of works, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he wanted to plot Mohist ink skills, he didn''t want Merton to come to the Ministry of works. Mohists are famous for their ink work in the Tang Dynasty. If Merton enters the Ministry of works, I''m afraid it won''t be long before the Ministry of works will be controlled by Mohists.


    Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, looked regretful. The psychological description of the Mohist School opened his eyes. If Merton could come to the Ministry of punishment, he would be able to show his strengths.


    The Minister of rites Linghu dehu reluctantly shook his head. Merton''s previous suggestions on training vertical and horizontal people really opened his eyes. In his opinion, I''m afraid the best vertical and horizontal people must be Merton. I''m afraid no one in the whole Tang Dynasty can compare with Merton''s understanding of foreign countries.


    In the Ministry of officials, Gao Shilian, the Minister of rites, squinted at Merton''s appointment document.


    "The young man is in a high position and his mind must be carved. The firearm supervisor''s sacrifice wine should be seven products." Gao Shilian gave a meal in his hand and wrote the word seven products on the document.


    When the document was delivered to Merton through the fastest procedure in the three provinces and six departments, Merton stared at the appointment document in his hand.


    "Qipin, isn''t he a Qipin sesame official?" Merton couldn''t help but flash a classic image of later generations.

 Chapter 441

    Seven!


    People in Chang''an joked that if you throw a brick at Zhuque street, you can hit three officials,


    Qipin officials are sparse and common in Chang''an city. If a Qipin official plays official power in Chang''an City, I''m afraid it will be laughed at by the people of Chang''an City, and even the vendors will ignore you.


    "The Ministry of officials is really deceiving people too much. It is also offering wine. Kong Yingda is from the third grade, and you Merton is only the seventh grade!" Qin Huaiyu in the ink house was filled with indignation.


    "In my opinion, old man Gao, this is revenge for the public and private." Chumo angrily said, and Wei Chi Baolin nodded heavily.


    In the eyes of the three of them, Gao Shilian is taking revenge on Merton for Chang sun Chong. Gao Shilian is the uncle of Chang sun Wuji and the empress. In those years, Chang sun Wuji''s parents died early and were bullied by the family. Gao Shilian brought him up. His relationship can be described as a close relative.


    In this way, Gao Shilian is Chang sun Chong''s uncle. Chang sun Chong was defeated by Merton. It is reasonable for Gao Shilian to take the lead for Chang sun Chong.


    "Go, let''s ask for brother Mo''s orders together. We must ask Gao Shilian for an explanation!" Qin Huaiyu waved his big hand and was ready to take the people straight to the official department.


    Before they stepped out of the gate, they turned to see that Merton was still sitting in his chair, drinking tea leisurely.


    "You...!" Qin Huaiyu lamented his misfortune and looked at Merton angrily.


    "People are bullying you. You can bear humiliation and bear the burden," Chumo said inconceivably.


    Wei Chi Baolin didn''t say anything cruel, but stroked his sleeves with a ferocious face.


    Merton looked at the eager expression of the three people and asked, "what''s the matter with Qipin? Don''t take Qipin as an official! All scholars in the world don''t start from Qipin. Then tell me how many official positions you have held in the army.


    Qin Huaiyu three people were suddenly hit by 10000 points. They were stunned and speechless. They couldn''t speak at once.


    Although they are dignified princes and sons, they don''t care about these when they enter the army, but rely on their real skills. If they join the army, they are also a big leader. They can serve as a chief of the army at most. They command more than a dozen people, not to mention seven grade officials. They don''t even have an official rank. The only advantage is that their starting point is higher than others.


    Qin Huaiyu immediately said, "we''re just small soldiers, and you''re offering wine. See which one of the offerings in Chang''an city is seven products."


    Chumo and Chumo nodded together.


    Merton said with a smile, "what''s the matter with the wine offering? What about the seven grades? The firearms supervisor is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor. What''s the difference between the seven grades and the three grades?"


    Qin Huaiyu suddenly realized that even if Merton was an intermediary, he would live more relaxed and comfortable than other officials without the interference of his boss.


    Besides, the seven grade officials in front of the prime minister''s door, but what if they were in front of the emperor''s door? It doesn''t matter whether Merton''s firearm supervisor offered wine or not. How could Merton offend Shang Shugao and Shi Lian of the Ministry of officials because of this little thing?


    "Besides, the great husband''s fame will naturally be achieved by himself. How can he get it without work?" Merton said proudly.


    Qipin''s firearms supervisor and sacrificial wine is not a big official, but he occupies an important position and does not arouse envy. Merton even suspects that Duke Xu gaoshilian seems to take care of him secretly.


    Gao Shilian, Duke of the state of Xu, is playing chess with Chang sun Chong in a pavilion in another courtyard of the Duke of the state of Xu.


    Gao Shilian is the mother and uncle of the empress Chang sun. He has a great kindness to the empress Chang sun. When Gao Shilian saw Li Shimin''s extraordinary performance, he decided to marry the empress Chang sun to Li Shimin. At the same time, he was also a great contributor to the transformation of Li Shimin''s Xuanwu Gate.


    After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he did not treat Gao Shilian badly. He not only had great respect for Gao Shilian, but also let Gao Shilian hold the important post of minister of officials. It can be said that he was in a high position of power and transcendence.


    "Uncle and grandpa are clever! Chong''er is ashamed!"


    Chang sun Chong''s chess skills were obviously no match for Gao Shilian. Soon he was trapped and killed by Gao Shilian. Chang sun Chong had to throw in his son and admit defeat.


    "Yes, I''ve made progress. Over time, Chong''er''s chess skills surpass that of the old man." Gao Shilian nodded.


    The eldest grandson Chong cleverly added tea to Gao Shilian''s cup and said, "Chong Er is ashamed. How can this tiny skill be in the eyes of my uncle and grandpa."


    Gao Shilian drank the tea in one gulp, looked at his eldest son and said with a smile, "since you entered the officialdom, it''s the first time for you to take the initiative to come to me. You can''t stop at the three treasures hall. Tell me, what''s the matter with coming here today?"


    The eldest sun Chong immediately changed a ashamed expression and said, "today Chong''er came to ask his uncle for forgiveness. Chong''er was defeated by others and had to rely on his uncle to come forward. It''s really ashamed."


    Gao Shilian was stunned. He immediately looked up at his eldest son, gently put down his tea cup and said in a positive color: "do you think I''m trying to get justice for you by making the offering of wine to the firearm supervisor of the son of Mohism a seven grade official?"


    The eldest sun Chong was stunned and asked, "isn''t it? Why did my uncle take the initiative to offend the Mohist School and set the official position of Morton''s wine offering as the seven grade official? Isn''t that annoying your majesty?"


    Among the Yamen of Chang''an City, the highest grade of offering wine is Kong Yingda, the Imperial College''s offering wine, from the third grade, and the other lowest is from the fifth grade. Even his eldest grandson rushed into the officialdom as Zongzheng Shaoqing, and his official position is also from the fifth grade. So it seems that Merton''s firearms offering wine is directly under the jurisdiction of his majesty, but his official position is seven grades, which is particularly dazzling.


    Not only does Chang sun Chong think so, but many officialdom people in Chang''an City think so and criticize one after another. Gao Shilian''s move must be because of Chang sun Chong. With the passage of time, the contradiction between Chang sun Chong and Mohist Zi is no longer a secret in front of everyone.


    Gao Shilian''s eyes flashed a glimmer of disappointment, shook his head and said, "it''s not that I want to make mojiazi a seven grade official, but that your majesty wants Merton to be a seven grade official."


    "Your Majesty''s meaning is impossible. Doesn''t your majesty want to reuse the Mohist son?" the eldest sun rushed with surprise.


    The whole Chang''an city knows how much Li Shimin loves Merton and how he can deliberately embarrass Merton.


    Gao Shilian nodded and said, "in the court hall, as a minister, the most important thing is to share your worries for your majesty. It is your majesty who wants to reuse the Mohist family, so the official department should set the official rank of the Mohist family at seven grades."


    "Please teach me!" asked the elder sun Chong.


    "Although no one doubts the ability of the young mojiazi to succeed, they are young after all. They suddenly rank high. They must be envious. Officials live in seven grades. They start from the same starting point as all officials, which can be regarded as blocking the long mouth of the world." Gao Shilian said.


    "Moreover, the firearms prison is directly under the jurisdiction of your majesty, and the official position of the Mexican family has not had the slightest impact."


    "Since the rank of Mozi is not any different, why should my uncle be a bad man in vain and provoke criticism? It should be noted that there are a lot of criticisms in the court." Chang sun Chong pointed out, of course, most of the criticisms are also related to him.


    Gao Shilian smiled and said, "it''s really inappropriate for me to do this if it''s other officials, but it''s most appropriate if it''s Mohist."


    Chang sun Chong immediately thought.


    "The Mojia Zi is only sixteen years old. If he is in a high position at the beginning, what will happen to the imperial court over time when the Mojia Zi''s contributions are more and his majesty can''t reward." Gao Shilian said.


    With the comprehensive revival of Mohism, it can be predicted that more and more contributions will be made by Merton in the future. If Merton''s official position reaches the third grade and the fifth grade at the beginning, how can he be rewarded when Merton''s contributions are too tired, and the imperial court needs Mohist ink skills.


    "Your Majesty needs to promote the Mohist family level by level, and the Mohist family also needs to contribute different Mohist skills to the imperial court and expand the Mohist family. Therefore, starting from the seven grades, Merton is not only conducive to the imperial court, but also conducive to the Mohist family. This is what the Mohist family calls a win-win situation. How can he offend the Mohist family and your majesty."


    When Gao Shilian finished, the eldest sun Chong realized that what Gao Shilian said was that his majesty wanted the Mohist son to be the seventh grade. Maybe Li Shimin didn''t have a clear instruction, but when Gao Shilian saw that the official department was asked to decide the grade of Merton by itself in his Majesty''s document, he immediately understood Li Shimin''s meaning.


    "Ginger is still old and spicy!" Chang sun Chong seemed to be impressed.


    When he understood the cooperation between Li Shimin and Gao Shilian, he was quite unconvinced. Not only his majesty, but also his uncle and grandfather thought that the Mexican family would be at the height of the sun in the future.


    How old Gao Shilian was. Seeing Chang sun Chong''s expression, he thought in his heart and then scolded: "Your Majesty is in that year. He is wise and powerful. If you only want to suppress others, it will only attract your Majesty''s disgust. If you want to stand firm in the Imperial Hall, you must contribute to the state of the Imperial Hall in addition to being simple in the heart of the emperor. Do you know the gap between you and the Mohist school?"


    "I......" the elder sun Chong hesitated immediately.


    "You are the legitimate son of the eldest grandson''s family and your Majesty''s nephew. Even if you enjoy your success, you can be a great minister in the future. The Mohist family was born at the end of the century and shoulder the important task of Mohist revival. The future is uncertain. Mohist son can see clearly that if he wants to revive Mohist, the only thing he can do is to make Mohist contribute to the imperial court and the people, which is how amazing Merton has made Your majesty laughs at the vulgar and absurd things. "


    Gao Shilian''s straightforward words immediately made his eldest son blush!


    Although he is usually proud of his origin, after Gao Shilian''s bloody analysis, he immediately lifted the veil in his heart and asked himself, if he was not born in the eldest grandson''s family, could he be an official and worship Zongzheng Shaoqing, ranking from the fifth grade?


    He has been in officialdom for half a year and has not made any achievements. Compared with Mohist Zi, he is very different. He always thinks that Mohist Zi has today only by inheriting Mohist skills from Mohist ancestors, and why doesn''t he rely on his family background?


    Looking at the elder sun Chong''s red face, Gao Shilian sighed slightly. How can he take the gratitude and resentment of the younger generation to heart? He positioned the grade of the Mohist family as seven grades on the grounds that the Mohist family''s youth was in a high position and needed polishing. Why didn''t the elder sun Chong not be a proud youth and need polishing?


    Chang sun Chong watched him grow up. He didn''t know how arrogant Chang sun Chong was. It might not be a bad thing to have Merton pressing his head.


    "The grandson has been taught!" the eldest sun Chong said respectfully.


    Gao Shilian nodded with satisfaction, but he didn''t see the jealousy in his eyes under Chang sun Chong''s respectfully lowered head.

 Chapter 442

    Among the three provinces and six departments, the Department of officials is the first of the six departments. Under the Department of officials, there are Department of officials, Department of seal, Department of medal and Department of merit examination, which are in charge of the appointment, removal, examination, promotion, medal and transfer of civil servants all over the world. It can be said that every official is in awe of the Department of officials.


    "Please also inform me that Merton came to the official department to report!" Merton said to the official department outside the door of the official department.


    Of course, Merton knew how much Li Shimin valued the firearms supervisor, so he issued a "congratulations on the ink sacrifice" in the appointment. Di Zhixun returned the appointment document to Merton and congratulated him.


    Merton looked at the document in his hand, and suddenly he entered officialdom.


    "This is the official dress of seven grades. If Lord Mo doesn''t feel fit, he can make the servants change a little." Di Zhixun waved his hand and immediately a small official offered a set of light green official dress.


    Merton took over his coat and put it on him. After a year''s sufficient nutrition, Merton''s height soared and fit, but Merton looked at himself green and couldn''t help but be covered with black lines,


    The grade of officials in the Tang Dynasty is also divided according to their clothes. Purple is the color of the clothes of the three grade officials; Light Fei is the color of five grade official clothes, dark green is the color of six grade official clothes, light green is the color of seven grade official clothes, dark cyan is the color of eight grade official clothes, light cyan is the color of nine grade official clothes, and yellow is the color of people outside the Palace and common people.


    "Fortunately, the hat is black," Merton said happily.


    "I''ll see you, Lord Shangshu!"


    In the main hall of the Ministry of officials, Merton wore official clothes to meet with Gao Shilian, the Minister of the Ministry of officials. According to the Convention, new officials should accept the admonition of the Ministry of officials when they take office.


    Of course, other officials did not directly see Gao Shilian''s treatment, but the firearms and sacrificial offerings in Mo Village are directly under the jurisdiction of his majesty, and it is reasonable for Gao Shilian to come forward.


    Gao Shilian pushed the reading glasses on his eyes, looked at Merton with a green face, and said, "for the first time, you can''t know the way to be an official."


    "Please give me instructions," Murton bowed.


    "The way to be an official is to abstain from corruption and bribery, to be eager for success, and to abstain from three..."


    Gao Shilian spoke slowly, but his words were impeccable.


    "Remember, sir!" Murton bowed.


    After the whole set of actions, Gao Shilian smiled and said, "I hope mohou will live up to his Majesty''s trust and rebuild sharp tools for the Tang Dynasty. I''m looking forward to what mohou handles!"


    As a minister of the Ministry of officials and an important official of the imperial court, he naturally knew about the big bang in xuandu temple, and the firearms prison was directly under the jurisdiction of his majesty, so we can imagine its importance.


    It can be said that in addition to the seven grades of official rank, Merton''s status is no less than that of important officials in the court.


    "Certainly live up to the high expectations of your majesty and the minister." Merton said positively.


    The two chatted for a while. Gao Shilian picked up the tea cup and Merton got up knowingly and left.


    When Merton was about to step out of the gate, he suddenly turned back and solemnly said, "thank you, Lord Shangshu."


    Looking at Merton''s figure leaving, Gao Shilian couldn''t help smiling.


    "Mozi is worthy of Mozi."


    All the officials of the court thought that he was deliberately suppressing the mojiazi, but the mojiazi saw through his intention and clearly expressed his goodwill. This insight had to be praised by him.


    Waving goodbye to dizhixun, Merton strode out of the official department. From now on, he was officially promoted to firearms supervisor.


    However, in today''s firearms prison, the officials have not been determined, the funds are insufficient, and the Yamen has not been built. He is the only barehanded commander.

 Chapter 443

    Building a new yamen is something that has never happened in the Tang Dynasty. If others had been at a loss, it is good that Morton had the experience of building a Mohist village. He came out from the official department, took the documents and rushed to the people''s department.


    This is very applicable to any place. It is impossible to build a yamen without a large amount of money.


    "Ask for money?" Dai Zhou looked at Merton''s seven grade official clothes in front of him in surprise. A seven grade official blocked the Minister of civil affairs for money. I''m afraid there is no one before or after.


    "Yes!" Merton said bluntly, "I was ordered to set up a firearms prison. Now there are all kinds of waste waiting for prosperity. Naturally, I need money and food."


    In those days, Dai Zhou chased him to the Mo mansion to collect taxes. Now Feng Shui turns. It''s his turn to block Dai Zhou for money. This change makes Merton feel happy.


    "You Merton is the famous God of wealth in Chang''an city. The Mojia village has a lot of money. You even went to me to ask for money." Dai Zhou waved to send Merton away.


    Merton was immediately dissatisfied and said, "who says that Mojia village is rich? Have you ever seen a rich man with a debt of 40000? Besides, this is a public instrument. How can you pay privately?"


    Dai Zhou immediately looked at Merton crying in amazement. If ordinary people owe so much money, they will naturally be poor. For Mojia village, tens of thousands of Guan is nothing at all? However, what Merton said is somewhat reasonable. The firearm prison is a government office. It is really inappropriate to use private money to build a firearm prison.


    "Now the imperial court is about to go to war, and the people''s department is short of money, so I can''t take much money. However, since you Merton came in person, I will give you face, come and give you 1000 yuan of money and food." Dai Zhou ordered a leader of the people''s department.


    "A thousand passes, you send beggars!" Merton cried angrily. It is estimated that the reconstruction of a Yamen in the group is not enough to plug the teeth.


    Dai Zhou suddenly asked Hao Ran, "how much do you want?"


    Merton raised a finger and said word by word, "ten thousand."


    Dai Zhou immediately changed his face and said, "ten thousand passes are impossible. You can''t find so much money even if you scrape the ground three feet in the Ministry of the people."


    Merton smiled and said, "really?"


    At this time, an official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs came in pleasantly surprised and reported: "I inform Lord Shangshu that the tax of Mojia village in the twelfth month has been paid, a full of 1030 yuan."


    During the new year, the goods in Mojia village sold well, and the taxes paid were more than 10000.


    Dai Zhou was so happy that he immediately saw Merton''s smiling face and couldn''t laugh or cry. It turned out that the calculation of Mohist school was here.


    "Two thousand Guan, no more. The tax has been planned in advance." Dai Zhou was like a miser who broke his money and endured the pain.


    "Eight thousand Guan is only the first batch of money when craftsmen have to be recruited to buy raw materials before the firearm supervision tile is built?" Merton argued.


    "The construction of houses and sites and the recruitment of craftsmen can be completed by the work department, which is enough to save you a lot of money. You can''t spend more than 3000 times." Dai Zhou sold the work department directly in order to save money.


    As soon as Merton''s eyes brightened, he directly recruited craftsmen from the Ministry of work. Technically, needless to say, there is also a guarantee in terms of loyalty.


    "Five thousand passes!" the two sides finally reached an agreement as if they were engaged in a seesaw battle.


    "Little slick!"


    "Old fox!"


    They looked at each other and felt their stomach Fei in their hearts.


    In fact, they all know that five thousand Guan money is nothing to Merton. Why can Merton not abide by the rules of the court if he can grind hard here for five thousand Guan in the Ministry of the people?


    Merton took the money, proudly came out of the people''s department and went straight to the work department.


    The work department didn''t embarrass Merton. A waiter of the fourth grade work department personally received Merton of the seventh grade, which can be said to give Merton enough face.


    After Merton took out the official documents, the Chamberlain of the Ministry of work readily agreed to Merton''s request, provided 50 skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of work, and handed over Yu Wenbo, who received Merton last time, to Merton until the firearms supervisor was established.


    "Please give me more orders!" Yu Wenbo said excitedly. Last time, Merton taught him the principle of heating without reservation, which benefited him a lot. He didn''t expect to work with Merton so soon.


    "You and I are at the same level. Don''t be so polite!" in terms of grade, Merton and Yu Wenbo are both seven grades and equal positions.


    Yu Wenbo said with a wry smile, "Lord Mo is joking. The seven grades below are rare and common in the work department, and Lord Mo is in charge of a prison. How can they be compared with each other? If you have orders, I will try my best to complete them."


    Merton nodded and said, "first go to the ink technology exhibition in the south of the city, mobilize a batch of steel cable cranes from the Mojia village, go to the back mountain of xuandu temple, and start construction immediately when the materials are complete, so as to build it in the shortest time."


    Merton is not a pedantic person. If the craftsmen of the Ministry of work are allowed to build it, I''m afraid it''s different whether it can be built or not until the battle of Tuyuhun begins. However, if there are advanced equipment in Mojia village, the speed of building firearms supervision will be greatly accelerated.


    "The mountain behind xuandu temple!" Yu Wenbo''s face changed. "Marquis Mo wants to build the firearms prison there."


    As for the big bang in the back mountain of xuandu temple, the whole Chang''an city is full of uproar. Yuwenbo naturally knows, and Merton chose the address of the firearm supervisor here, which makes people think deeply.


    Merton nodded without explanation.


    The firearms prison needs to be secret and safe, and the place is empty. I''m afraid there is no suitable place for the back mountain of xuandu temple in the whole Chang''an city.


    Out of the Ministry of work, Merton handed over the task of building a firearms supervisor to Yu Wenbo, who was in full charge. Only then did he get out of the imperial city.


    "Young master!"


    Tie an came up.


    Merton nodded, got on the carriage, and closed his eyes to think about today''s gains and losses. Now the firearm supervisors and craftsmen have all the money in place, and it only takes time to build it naturally. However, it is naturally impossible to make gunpowder and leave the raw materials. The reason why Merton wants so much money to the Ministry of the people is that most of the money is spent on materials.


    There are only three kinds of gunpowder formulas: saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal. If the firearms supervisor buys these three kinds wantonly, I''m afraid ordinary people can also crack the gunpowder formula. At that time, Merton can''t escape the blame for the leakage of the gunpowder formula.


    "Charcoal is bought by Mojia village!" Merton thought. Mojia village makes steel all the year round. There are countless charcoal used. Many places are inconspicuous.


    "The Imperial Palace needs to use a large amount of saltpeter to make ice in summer. Saltpeter can also be bought by the interior government. As for sulfur, firearms supervision is good for the back mountain of xuandu temple. It can''t be better to buy it in the name of xuandu temple."


    "Then buy some other items for the study of waidan sect. You can also confuse the audio-visual. In this way, it will be perfect."


    After Merton finished the planning, he was relieved. Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and it can be completed.

 Chapter 444

    At the back of xuandu temple.


    The original ruins have long been bulldozed and transported away, a large number of building materials have been piled up, and huge steel cable booms stand up. Under the control of craftsmen, heavy objects weighing thousands of kilograms can be easily moved, and the progress of the project has been greatly accelerated.


    "The Mohist ink technique is really worthy of its reputation. Having such a sharp weapon in hand can be said to be the gospel of craftsmen all over the world." Yu Wenbo looked at speeding up the work quantity several times and exclaimed. One person controls the steel cable boom, which is comparable to the power of ten people. No wonder the Mohist village has developed so rapidly and has been awarded the first village in the world by his majesty. I''m afraid this ink technique has contributed a lot.


    Merton nodded and said, "the power of machinery is several times better than manpower, and the efficiency is times better than the number of people. This is the charm of ink technology."


    In Mojia''s machinery, the steel cable boom pulley has become a new profit point. In Mojia village, the orders of steel cable boom from both sides of the canal are piled up. At the same time, the supporting containers are developing rapidly. Except for the smaller model, it is almost the same as that of later generations


    It can be imagined that on both sides of the canal in the future, long jibs extend into the canal, lift the goods from the barge of the canal, directly turn to the shore, put them on the prepared carriage on the shore, and then pull them to the destination without stopping, which is many times faster than the previous coolie loading and unloading.


    Even in some large warehouses in Chang''an City, such jibs have been put into use.


    Yuwen botton was thoughtful and sighed: "once this boom is out, I''m afraid most of the coolies at the wharf will lose their livelihood."


    Merton was silent, shook his head and said, "no matter how good the machinery is, it also needs people to control it. After the brick road is opened, the traditional speed can''t keep up with the needs. The era of rapidity is coming. If you hold on to the incomplete, you can only be eliminated."


    Yu Wenbo sighed. He knew that what Merton said was not wrong. The opening of brick road has increased the running speed of Datang several times. High speed must bring high efficiency, and the boom just came into being.


    Since the opening of Zhuanlu Road, a large number of rice has been continuously transported from Luoyang to Chang''an City by four-wheel trucks. The rice price in Chang''an City has fallen on January 3. Even during the Spring Festival, it can not save the decline of rice price. Now the rice price in Chang''an city is only a penny higher than that in Luoyang, which was unimaginable in the past year.


    Even the price of grain wheat was gradually equal to that of Luoyang City. The whole food crisis in Guanzhong was solved in a very short time, which made the imperial court more firm in its decision to build brick roads.


    Merton inspected the construction site and nodded with satisfaction. Yuwenbo is worthy of being the descendant of yuwenkai. He has considerable talent in architecture. He can understand Merton''s drawings at a glance and doesn''t need to bother Merton any more.


    "Lord Mo!"


    Just after Merton inspected and was ready to leave, Taoist Changsheng appeared in front of Merton by coincidence.


    "Oh! It''s a friend of Changsheng Taoist priest!" Merton and Changsheng son are very familiar with each other. The secret hair dyeing skills of the two cooperation are very popular in Chang''an city. It can be said that the cooperation is quite pleasant.


    "In the future, the firearm supervisor and waidan sect will live next to each other. Now the firearm supervisor has not been completed, so it would be good if Lord Mo didn''t go to the cold house to have a cup of hot tea." the eldest son is still a fairy and elegant, but his tone is particularly warm.


    The firearm prison was built in the original site of Taoist priest Shenxiao, and then expanded. On the one hand, it is very suitable for this place to be secluded. On the other hand, the gunpowder formula is not a secret for the Taoist waidan sect, and it is also easy to manage together.


    Merton looked a little moved and said with a smile, "I''ll disturb the Taoist priest."


    The eldest son was far away from Shenxiao road. When the gunpowder exploded, he was not affected.


    When he walked into the Taoist temple of the eldest son, Merton couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. The eldest son benefited from his secret hair dyeing skills. It can be said that he had constant financial resources. The whole Taoist temple was properly arranged and elegant.


    When they sat down, a little Taoist immediately offered hot tea. However, they were not thinking about drinking tea.


    Merton took a sip of tea, put it on the table and said, "Taoist friend Changsheng, please come here. It''s not just to taste tea!"


    The eldest son immediately smiled bitterly and said, "mohou Huiyan, I came here today to ask mohou to point out a clear way for waidan school."


    "Ming Lu?" Merton frowned and said in a puzzled way.


    The eldest son smiled bitterly and said, "don''t hide from Mo Hou, waidan sect has now reached the end of its mountain and water."


    In the complaint of his eldest son, Merton suddenly realized that a big explosion caused heavy losses to the waidan sect, and the establishment of the firearms prison reduced the support from the imperial court by more than half.


    Nowadays, the talents of waidan sect are withering, the finance is in short supply, and there is no achievement. It can be said that it is in a precarious situation and at the time of life and death.


    "It can be said that if it weren''t for the financial support of hair dyeing secret skills, it wouldn''t be able to run the waidan sect." the eldest son sighed.


    Merton suddenly said: "so, waidan sect urgently needs a Taoist art to replace refining gunpowder, which can not only restore the confidence of waidan sect, but also provide financial support to waidan sect."


    The eldest son suddenly felt guilty and said, "if so, it would be great."


    Merton said with a loud smile, "why is it difficult?"


    The eldest son was pleasantly surprised and said, "please give me some advice."


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "the waidan sect is sitting on the treasure mountain without knowing it, and I don''t know that the waidan sect has always had a secret skill that makes the waidan sect advance day by day. That''s the alchemy of the waidan sect."


    "Alchemy!" the eldest son wondered. It can be said that every Alchemist is very familiar with alchemy. Alchemists use real fire to make gold in order to live forever.


    However, since Merton proved that it was wrong to practice alchemy for long life, the alchemy has fallen. He can''t figure out how alchemy can become the key to saving the waidan sect.


    Merton said positively, "as the saying goes, no gold is red, no man is perfect, and the alchemy technology of waidan school can refine the sundries in gold and make it infinitely close to pure gold."


    The eldest son wondered, "but what''s the use of this? Even if the gold is refined again, the gold is still gold. On the contrary, due to the refining of sundries, the weight is reduced, but the loss is increased and the gold is lost in vain.


    Merton smiled and said, "what Taoist priest Changsheng said is indeed a fact. We take ordinary gold and purified gold. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is indeed equal in value, but in another place, the value of purified gold will increase greatly."


    "That''s jewelry!" Merton didn''t sell off, but said the answer directly.


    "Mohou said that jewelry was made of purified gold." the eldest son wondered.


    Merton nodded: "yes, the official gold ingot, which is the purest gold on the market, is only 90% pure gold. If the waidan sect further purifies it on the basis of its alchemy skills, it can get 90% hardware, 90% gold or even full gold, which will surely attract the zhubao jewelry store in Chang''an city. The waidan sect can collect money on the ground only by doing it."


    It is also jewelry, but Merton knows that the future full gold and thousand full gold are not only the difference in price, but also the difference in buyers'' psychology. Even if the actual value is almost the same, more people are more willing to buy thousand full gold with higher purity.


    "Let waidan send it to the jewelry store to make gold?" the eldest son frowned. Although Merton''s suggestion moved him, it really made him feel ashamed to let the alchemy send put down its airs and serve the merchants.


    Merton said positively, "whether it''s Taoist alchemy or the development of material immortality, it''s the most expensive thing. If the waidan sect wants to develop, money is the most important thing. If the waidan sect is willing, Merton can lead the way and sell the alchemy secret skills to jewelers, but it''s a one hammer deal, which can''t be compared with the long-term flow of hair dyeing secret skills."


    Thinking of the wealth brought by the secret technique of hair dyeing, the eldest son clenched his teeth and said, "just do as Lord Mo said!"


    If the alchemy secret skill is firmly controlled in hand, the whole waidan sect does not need to support the hair dyeing secret skill independently. With enough money, those waidan sects who do not share grain can devote themselves to scientific research and experiments.


    Merton not only practiced and sighed, but who could have thought that the cheating eldest son had independently supported the beam of waidan sect.


    Merton said in his heart, "if the secret technique developed by waidan sect is successful, you can cooperate with the Mohist School and imitate the secret technique of hair dyeing as a model."


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" the eldest son said gratefully.


    Although Merton was the culprit for the decline of waidan sect, it was also Merton who pointed out another broad road for waidan sect when waidan sect was in danger.

 Chapter 445

    Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival.


    It is the most solemn festival of the Tang Dynasty. On the first month of each year, when all countries in Chang''an city come to Korea, foreign nationalities stay until the 15th. On the day of the Lantern Festival, all countries set up platforms in Zhuque street to celebrate, dragon dance, colored lanterns, delicious food, singing and dancing, from dusk to early morning, until they return home, which can be said to be the joy of the whole people.


    Naturally, the major merchants in Chang''an City refused to let go of this business opportunity. Each shop was decorated and brightly lit, trying to attract more attention on the night of the Lantern Festival.


    More large-scale merchants set up a show at the door of the store to attract people, and even small businessmen and hawkers are ready to make a lot of money at this time of national celebration.


    The inns in Chang''an City have long been overcrowded. In addition to the rich families around Chang''an City, they also came to visit the annual Shangyuan Lantern Festival. What''s more, many people from Luoyang even rushed to Chang''an city not far from 800 miles.


    The bus from Chang''an to Luoyang just opened in Mojia village is extremely popular. It is difficult to get a ticket. A large number of Luoyang tycoons spare no money to get to Chang''an City as soon as possible. What''s more, they have booked a return ticket. Once the last yuan night is over, they will return to Luoyang at dawn the next day.


    A Shangyuan night completely made the bus business of Mojia village famous. Naturally, Mojia village did not miss such a good publicity opportunity. Mojia craftsmen had already purchased large-scale lanterns and were ready to make a big show at the Lantern Festival and become the first village in the world.


    Mo Fu Zhong.


    Everyone is extremely busy and is preparing for the Shangyuan grand event tonight. Merton is the only one who is the most leisure and can''t get started at all. Even the reconstruction of the firearms supervisor is entrusted to yuwenbo by Merton, who doesn''t have to worry about it at all.


    As the last sunset came to an end, everyone in Chang''an city seemed to get a signal. No matter high-ranking families, houses and inns, they all stepped out of their houses and converged towards Zhuque street.


    On Zhuque street, at the door of each merchant, lanterns were hung up before dark, and the whole Chang''an city was filled with a layer of blurred light.


    With a string of silk and bamboo, the lantern night began.


    "Merton, hurry up, it''s just you!"


    Outside the ink house, a carriage stopped at the door. Qin Huaiyu leaned out his head and hurried to the ink house.


    Merton hurried into the carriage and saw Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin lying half asleep in the carriage,


    "What''s the matter with them?" Merton said in surprise.


    "They are making up their sleep. Tonight we are going to stay up all night." Qin Huaiyu said excitedly. After the Lantern Festival, Qin Huaiyu will join the army. I''m afraid this lantern festival will waste their last leisure time.


    "All night?" Merton looked at the three people silently. They really fought for the Lantern Festival night.


    Chumo opened his eyes to Merton, yawned and said, "wake me up when you arrive."


    Then he turned over and fell asleep again.


    The four wheeled carriage sped away. However, the closer it was to Zhuque street, the more people on the road. When it was still a hundred steps away from Zhuque street, the four wheeled carriage could not walk completely.


    "I knew I''d come on horseback when I waited." Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    Merton shook his head and said, "even riding a horse can''t do it. The Chang''an County Government has long issued a notice on the new year''s Eve. Cars and horses are prohibited in the whole Zhuque street tonight. I''d better walk!"


    Morton pointed to Constable Cao, who was maintaining order ahead, said that Chang''an County Yamen also worked hard for Shangyuan night. I''m afraid all yamen servants have been dispatched tonight.


    "That''s the only way." Qin Huaiyu nodded.


    Morton gets off the bus first, followed by Qin Huaiyu. Chumo and Yuchi Baolin immediately get up, jump off the carriage and send the coachman to wait here.


    Looking at Qin Huaiyu''s four people entering Zhuque street, Cao Li breathed a sigh of relief. As a Yamen in Chang''an City, his biggest headache is these dandies in Chang''an city. Before that, he had stopped several dandies and tried his best to stop them. Fortunately, there was mo Hou, and everything was safe.


    As soon as he stepped into rosefinch street, Merton suddenly felt as if he had returned to the night scene of later generations.


    From the street to the end of Zhuque street, lanterns hung high for more than ten miles, illuminating the whole street like day.


    The colorful lanterns radiated a blurred light. Even if Qin Huaiyu lived in the capital every year, they were still shocked by the beautiful scenery once a year.


    "Last year was not as good-looking as this year, nor as lively as this year." Wei Chi Baolin rubbed his just woke up eyes and said in amazement. The last trace of sleep suddenly disappeared.


    Qin Huaiyu and Chumo nod vigorously.


    Merton knew clearly that in the seventh year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty had avoided several droughts and floods in succession, and it could even be said that it was a rare harvest year. With the encouragement of brick road and Mohist secret skills, there was a sudden leap in politics and economy. This prosperity was naturally reflected in the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.


    The four people walked along the flow of people on the rosefinch street as if in the daytime. Along the way, they were busy with acrobatics, shadow puppets, puppet shows and clay figurines.


    When the boy was curious, he saw what delicious and fun to eat.


    The four people didn''t go far, and their hands were full of all kinds of toys. They had fun one by one. However, no one looked at the four people with surprised eyes, because there were not a few people like them on Zhuque street.


    In such a festive moment, no one will care about spending a little money to meet their childhood hobbies.


    "All the folks in Chang''an City, those who have money hold a money market and those who have no money hold a personal market. My younger brother came to Chang''an City for the first time just to raise money for his father''s medical treatment, especially to perform, and please enjoy his face." in the middle of Zhuque street, a 15-year-old boy was dressed vigorously. Although he was washed white, he was clean and tidy behind him, A man kept coughing to help organize his things.


    "Good, filial son!" the crowd cheered. Since the establishment of MOH hospital, there have been many people going to Chang''an City for medical treatment, and such stories of father''s kindness and son''s filial piety are easier to stimulate the reward enthusiasm of the people in Chang''an city.


    Moreover, the young man''s martial arts were really good. He was proficient in all kinds of martial arts and welcomed the applause. Soon, the young man was covered with copper money. Merton left a silver or two and left quietly.


    Not far away, a 10-year-old girl turned 18 back somersaults in a row, ushered in a full house of cheers, and just turned in front of Merton.


    Merton smiled and spilled a handful of copper money. The little girl received it with her hand skillfully, but she didn''t fall at all.


    "Thank you, young master!"


    The little girl weighed the heavy weight, couldn''t help but brighten her eyes and bow down to thank them. Their favorite is such a VIP like Merton. She also wants to perform some unique skills. Unfortunately, Merton has disappeared into the crowd. The little girl immediately lost her account, and then turned around and began to ask for a reward from his well-dressed people.


    On this festive day, no one will refuse a little girl with unique skills and cunning. I believe this little girl will gain a lot tonight.


    As soon as Merton left the acrobatic area, Qin Huaiyu and the three gathered together and said obscene, "the front is the venue of the western market. It is said that this year''s Lantern Festival not only has Hu Ji who is good at Hu Xuan dance from the western regions, but also has dancers from Persia who bare their shoulders and exposed their belly. Their dancing posture is wonderful and gorgeous. We naturally feast our eyes."


    Merton was stunned. Isn''t this the famous belly dance of later generations.


    Merton was suddenly moved and was about to promise. Yu Guang swept away and suddenly saw a familiar figure standing under a huge lantern. He immediately straightened his face and said, "don''t look at or listen to me if I''m not polite. How can I listen to those decadent sounds when I''m reading."


    After hearing that Merton, a disciple of the Mohist school, quoted scriptures and used Confucian classics, Qin Huaiyu three people despised Merton''s hypocrisy several times, they hurried to grab a position.


    After the three left, Merton went under the lantern and said to a young man in Confucian clothes, "it was brother Li Zhi."


    The boy under the lantern turned around and showed a picturesque face. It was the princess Changle dressed as a woman.

 Chapter 446

    When Princess Changle saw the direction of Qin Huaiyu''s departure, she couldn''t help humming coldly: "Marquis Mo is good at foreign unique learning. The exotic peerless dance is ahead, and Marquis Mo is not excited."


    Merton was immediately embarrassed. He was the one who knew the western knowledge best, but not the one who knew the Western dance.


    Merton''s face said, "it''s just an exotic song and dance. How can Mo''s children be tempted by it."


    Princess Changle glanced at the corner of her mouth and said, "don''t all men like these evil Hu Ji?"


    Princess Changle looked at the surroundings with disdain, and men who flocked frantically rushed to the residence of Hu people in the western regions.


    She heard that even grandpa Huang, who lives idle in the palace, likes western region Hu Ji''s singing and dancing very much. A group of western region dancers are often kept in captivity in his palace.


    Merton wisely didn''t argue on this issue. He took a few steps. As soon as he came to the side of Princess Changle, there were many bad eyes staring at him.


    It was not until Princess Changle lifted her arm slightly that the people around her disappeared, just like the people around her, and happily watched the light market.


    Merton suddenly realized that Princess Changle could not have been considerate when she came out to walk around the street. Otherwise, I''m afraid she couldn''t get out of the palace at all.


    Merton took an oblique step, slightly opened a suitable distance, pretended to be unaware and said with a smile: "brother Li Zhi hasn''t gone yet? If brother Li Zhi has this hobby, I''m naturally willing to sacrifice my life to accompany."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, he immediately noticed a fierce stare. Merton turned his head and saw a strong middle-aged woman staring at him.


    Merton grinned at him, and the middle-aged woman''s face became more ugly.


    Princess Changle blushed and said, "who has this hobby? I won''t go to see those Hu Ji?"


    Merton laughed and said, "brother Li Zhi is like me. They are all decent people."


    "Cheeky!"


    Princess Changle suddenly rolled her eyes. She had never seen anyone become so proud of herself.


    "Brother Li Zhi has been wandering at the door of Jinyu building, but he wants to buy some jewelry for his confidant." Merton avoided the topic and pointed to the glittering jewelry store behind him. This building is called Jinyu building, which is the industry of Qian family, a partner to solve thousands of worries.


    It happened that Merton''s Alchemy business for the eldest son was in cooperation with jinyulou.


    Jinyu building is rich and powerful. It is original. The branches are hung with lanterns, wrapped with red silk, wrapped with branches like fire trees, full of silver flowers, reproducing the wonders of fire trees and silver flowers in the northern and Southern Dynasties.


    Princess Changle suddenly felt empty in her heart and said in a thick voice, "where is it? I just enjoy the beautiful scenery of the fire tree and silver flowers."


    Merton understood that for women, the charm of jewelry is always the most difficult to resist, but today Princess Changle is a man''s dress, so it''s inconvenient to go in.


    After waiting for huoshuyinhua to attract more and more people, just listen to the sound of a gong. The shopkeeper of Jinyu building strides onto the platform that has been built for a long time and says in a loud voice: "gold is not enough, and no one is perfect. This is an eternal knowledge. However, from now on, this statement will be rewritten, because our shop specially invited the Taoist waidan sect at a high price to refine a batch of 100% gold for the shop."


    "Ten percent of the money?" the crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.


    If people don''t believe it at ordinary times, but the Tang Dynasty believes in Taoism, they naturally know a lot about the Taoist external alchemy. Naturally, they know that the alchemy secret is the unique skill of the Taoist external alchemy sect. Although the Taoist external alchemy sect recently exposed its family scandal and broke the lie of its own elixir, with the hot sales of hair dyeing secret skills, its reputation has not declined but risen, and it is even more like the sun.


    "Ten percent is gold!"


    Merton naturally knows what ten percent gold is. I''m afraid it''s what Merton said about purified gold. Although it''s much inferior to thousands of gold and tens of thousands of gold in later generations, Taoist alchemy is indeed the limit of technology in this era. It''s not too much to call it ten percent gold.


    But he didn''t expect that the Qian family leader was so urgent that he refined the gold in the shortest time and was ready to launch it grandly on the night of the Lantern Festival.


    Obviously, Jinyu building succeeded. When the shopkeeper of Jinyu building said that it was 100% gold, all women''s eyes immediately glowed. Even if the lantern flickered, it couldn''t be covered up.


    "Perfect match! Due to the urgency of time, our shop specially made a full gold jewelry and specially introduced it to you on the night of the Lantern Festival. This is the first full gold jewelry in the world, but it is of great significance." the shopkeeper of Jinyu building reached out and a beautiful maid walked onto the stage with a tray. On the tray, a pair of women''s gold wisps were shining in the light of fire, trees and silver flowers, Exudes a strange charm.


    Merton secretly praised that the Qian family leader is worthy of being an elder in the business world. He said that he must be popular in the Tang Dynasty. He suddenly raised 100% of the money to infinity. In the future, as long as it is a rich family to get married, 100% of the money must be standard.


    I believe that after tonight, the Jinyu building of the Qian family will surely become the top silver building in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Well, how much money is this? I want it!" before they could shake their heads from the golden light, they heard a young man''s voice proudly say.


    "Why do you want it? I don''t have no money!" said a middle-aged rich businessman with a big belly.


    "Just because my young master is the legitimate son of the Wei family in the south of the city, Wei Si''an." Wei Si''an said proudly. Beside him, a coquettish woman accompanied him and flattered him from time to time.


    There was an uproar all around. The Wei family in the south of the city was a famous aristocratic family in Chang''an city with great power. Naturally, everyone knew the name of the Wei family in the south of the city.


    As soon as the middle-aged rich merchant''s face changed, he quickly flattered and said, "the villain''s lard was blindfolded and bumped into master Wei."


    After making a quick apology, the middle-aged rich merchant immediately turned and disappeared into the crowd, leaving without looking back. In this era, the merchant''s status is underground, and he can only retreat from powerful people.


    When Wes settled down, he looked around proudly. Everyone around him nodded and dared not look at him.


    "It''s hateful to oppress people with momentum!" Princess Changle secretly bit her silver teeth and clenched her fist angrily.


    "Miss, it''s inappropriate to go abroad in micro clothes today!" whispered the middle-aged woman who had been following her.


    Princess Changle put down her fist angrily and saw Merton''s heart move and said, "Merton, go teach this man a lesson and don''t let him succeed."


    Morton was stunned when he heard the speech, and immediately said without hesitation: "OK, I''ll certainly get back the jewelry for brother Li Zhi."


    Princess Changle blushed and said, "who is for jewelry."


    However, even what she said after this sentence had no confidence. The first full gold jewelry really moved her.


    "Brother Wei, it''s a coincidence. Mo also likes this jewelry." Merton stepped forward and suddenly shouted.


    Wesan suddenly turned his head, stared at Merton and said, "the MOH family."


    There was an uproar among the people around. No one thought that in this place, the Mo family was against Wei Si''an, the legitimate son of the Wei family in the south of the city.

 Chapter 447

    One is the son of an aristocratic family, and the other is the son of the Mo family, who is famous in Chang''an city. The grievances between the two people were quickly picked out one by one.


    From the grain purchase in Mojia village to the gratitude and resentment of the Imperial College, it soon spread among the population.


    For a moment, they had a new hatred and a strong smell of gunpowder.


    Wei Si''an''s face is gloomy and vicious. In terms of status, the Mohist school is not inferior to him at all. In terms of financial resources, they are very different. If they compete, he will suffer losses today.


    "Don''t argue, you two. This gold jewelry is not for sale, but for free to the last winner today." the shopkeeper of jinyulou wiped his sweat,


    Jinyu building came here today to make a name for itself. Of course, it won''t simply sell gold jewelry.


    Although it is said that both of them can''t afford to offend Jinyu building, if one of them is not handled well, it will cause trouble for Jinyu building. However, in the future, it is reported that Mohist and Wei''s legitimate sons are competing for gold jewelry, which will certainly improve the reputation of Jinyu building.


    "The last winner?" Wei Si''an frowned. "If the Golden Jade building is a competition to write poetry, there''s no need to compare. I''ll turn around and go!"


    Although Wei Si''an''s words have the meaning of admitting counseling, no one ridicules him. After all, the poetic talent of Mohist school is recognized by the people of Chang''an city. Even the great scholars of contemporary Wenzong are ashamed of themselves in front of Mohist school.


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou secretly regretted that if he had known that he could meet mojiazi today, he would have decided to write poetry. Mojiazi''s poetry is hard to change. Can it be just a gold jewelry.


    "I don''t know how to win this golden jewelry." a voice coaxed in the crowd.


    The shopkeeper of Jinyu building arched his hands around and said in a loud voice, "tonight is the night of the Lantern Festival. Thousands of people enjoy the lantern riddles. Naturally, we will take the lantern riddles as the game. Please look at the fire trees and silver flowers in front of our shop. There are 15 lanterns, and there is a lantern riddle under each lantern. Anyone who can lead to answer the 15 lantern riddles first can get the full gold jewelry given by Jinyu building."


    "Guess lantern riddles?" many people burst into an uproar.


    No one thought that jinyulou gave away gold jewelry by guessing lantern riddles. Suddenly, many people were excited. This was not a comparison of talent and family background. Naturally, they also had the opportunity to get it.


    Princess Changle was puzzled and asked, "how can there be such a good thing as dropping pie in the world? How can Jinyu building give gold for nothing?"


    Merton bowed his head and explained: "Being able to answer 15 consecutive questions in a very short time, and if you answer one question wrong, you will miss the opportunity. It seems simple, but it is very difficult. Even I am not sure. Moreover, even if Jinyu building finally sends out full gold jewelry, it will certainly attract enough popularity. Jinyu building can just take the opportunity to make a sign and become famous in Chang''an city No loss.


    Princess Changle suddenly looked at the honest jinyulou shopkeeper and said, "it''s really a profiteer."


    After that, he didn''t forget to stare at Merton. Merton immediately suffered a reckless disaster. It was clearly the cunning of Jinyu building, which was counted on his own head,


    Merton naturally knew that there was no good end to arguing with a woman at this time, no matter whether the woman disguised as a man or not.


    Wei Si''an''s face was a little relaxed. He had prepared for the Lantern Festival night for a long time. Naturally, he was proficient in lantern riddles and the MOH family,


    "Brother Mo, dare you fight on the stage!" Wei Si''an shouted, provoking and looking at Merton. Although he thinks he is inferior in poetry, he doesn''t believe that the Mexican family can''t even compare with the lantern riddle.


    Merton sighed in his heart, but he knew that future generations also had question answering programs, and it was not easy to answer 15 correct answers in a row.


    But now Princess Changle is looking behind her back. Merton naturally can''t recognize it. Lang said, "it''s what you want, and you don''t dare to invite your ears.


    "Can we also participate?" many people in the audience coaxed. Although they knew that they were talented, they naturally didn''t want to let go of the opportunity to make white gold.


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou nodded and said, "that''s natural. Anyone who has passed the examination of our shop and is proficient in lantern riddles can participate! Of course, Prince Wei and Lord Mo are the talents of the Imperial College. Naturally, they are exempted from passing the examination."


    "As long as you pass the examination of jinyulou, you can participate in the final competition for gold jewelry with Lord Mo and childe Wei." the shopkeeper of jinyulou pointed to more than ten offerings behind you.


    Suddenly, many people rushed away. Guessing lantern riddles is very unorthodox. Not many people are good at it. If they can win with their real skills, they will have nothing to say.


    However, as Merton said, the examination of Jinyu building is also a continuous answer to 15 lantern riddles. It seems simple, but in fact it is extremely difficult. Many people go to the examination. Finally, only four people can really pass the examination of Jinyu building. In addition, Merton and wesan are only six.


    It is obvious that the four are good at guessing puzzles. Each of them does not admit defeat. Even in the face of wesan''s power and Merton''s fame, none of them is willing to give up.


    With the sound of a gong, the riddle guessing began.


    "OK, let''s welcome the first lantern!" the shopkeeper of Jinyu building reached out and a waiter took down a lantern at the bottom and handed it to him.


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou took out the lantern riddle and shouted out loudly. The first lantern riddle was ordinary, and the six people answered it quickly.


    However, the second puzzle suddenly became more difficult and eliminated one person directly.


    Soon the second and third people were eliminated. Until question 12, a middle-aged scholar defeated me with a bitter smile. At this time, only Merton and wesan were left on the stage.


    Wesan couldn''t help humming coldly when he looked at Merton. He didn''t expect that Merton was so difficult. He was so proficient in lantern riddles. He had already been prepared and was embarrassed to have a tie with the Mohists.


    Looking at the two people on the stage, the shopkeeper of jinyulou couldn''t help showing a trace of satisfaction. In any case, the biggest winner of tonight''s outcome must be jinyulou.


    At that moment, the shopkeeper of jinyulou took down the 13th lantern without hesitation, sang the riddle loudly and said, "New Year''s Eve is the end of the year!"


    Merton immediately frowned. This sentence seems meaningless. New Year''s Eve is not new year''s Eve. It is indeed the end of the year, but guessing lantern riddles naturally can''t be calculated in this way.


    Merton''s face moved, and his eyes lit up when he saw the word "the end of the year". The bottom of the year was not exactly Xi, but also the word "Xi" on New Year''s Eve.


    Merton suddenly realized that he picked up his pen and wrote more than one word on the paper and handed it to him. At the same time, wesan also handed in the answer.


    "Congratulations, you have answered correctly! The answer to this riddle is many words." the shopkeeper of jinyulou said.


    They tied again.


    The surrounding people were stunned. To tell the truth, this riddle is quite difficult. Ordinary people are still thinking hard. Both of them have blurted out the answer.


    When the fourteenth lantern was taken, the people immediately held their breath and waited for another fierce confrontation.


    "Painting is round, writing is square, winter is short and summer is long." when the shopkeeper of jinyulou broke the mystery again, the whole audience frowned.


    What is it that can have four states of radius and length at the same time? Each one looked at the shopkeeper of jinyulou and wondered if he was wrong.


    When the manager of jinyulou must say it again, the whole audience was in an uproar.


    Weisi''an also frowned. When the funnel of timing was about to run out, weisi''an subconsciously looked up at the sky, suddenly realized that he was writing down the answer.


    Wei Si''an proudly handed over his answer and said to the shopkeeper of Jinyu building, "this time, I want to listen to brother Mo''s answer first."


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou turned to Merton and saw that Merton nodded indifferently. Then he opened Merton''s answer. His eyes lit up and read aloud.


    "There is a fish in the East China Sea without head or tail. Removing the backbone is your mystery."


    Everyone was stunned. They didn''t expect that Merton''s answer was also a mystery.


    The middle-aged scholar who lost the battle before brightened his eyes when he heard the speech and said, "this is a riddle to solve the riddle. If what I expected is not bad, the answer to this riddle should be Japanese."


    "Break the riddle with a riddle." they suddenly realized that Merton''s riddle was a character riddle, which was the easiest to solve. It was easy for them to think of the Japanese character.


    At this time, people suddenly draw a circle, write a square, short in winter and long in summer.


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help hating in his heart. He saw the moon in the sky. He didn''t expect that the Mo family was unique and robbed the limelight by breaking the mystery.

 Chapter 448

    "The 15th lantern is the king of the Golden Jade building. If anyone can guess the 15th question correctly, he can win the first full gold jewelry in the world." the shopkeeper of the Golden Jade building shouted.


    Weisi''an took a deep breath. Now it''s not a gratitude and resentment of full gold jewelry. As long as they wave, the next day, Jinyu building will surely offer a brand-new full gold jewelry. At the moment, they are fighting for face.


    Merton dare not neglect. Men always have a desire to show themselves in front of women. Merton can''t avoid vulgarity even if he is a man for two generations.


    "Walk also sit, stand also sit, lie also sit, please guess a thing." the shopkeeper of jinyulou took the riddle under the lamp king in front of him and said in a loud voice.


    As he settled down, Wes frowned and racked his brains to think of nothing. He sat doing everything.


    The people around shook their heads one after another. With the foreshadowing of the fourteenth question, they certainly wouldn''t think it was the wrong question of the shopkeeper of Jinyu building, but the puzzle was too biased.


    Merton accidentally looked at the shopkeeper of Jinyu building. He was surprised. He didn''t expect to encounter this classic riddle here. He said in a loud voice, "you can lie down, stand down, sit down, and the riddle below can eat your riddle."


    Everyone was shocked. No one thought that mojiazi should solve the mystery again. What''s more, they couldn''t guess the mystery of mojiazi.


    "Mystify!" whispered wesan coldly. He couldn''t think of anything. He sat and lay all day.


    When the middle-aged scholar who had just lost the battle heard Merton''s riddles and words, his eyes lit up and said, "is it a snake that is the answer to the riddle of marquis Merton? So the answer to the fifteenth riddle should be a frog."


    "Snakes and Frogs!" the crowd suddenly realized that frogs and snakes were not sitting and lying all day.


    At the same time, they immediately knew why wesan lost. I''m afraid he didn''t lose in knowledge, but as a son of an aristocratic family, he probably didn''t touch frogs and snakes at all, so naturally he couldn''t guess the answer.


    "Congratulations to Lord Mo for solving 15 puzzles and getting a pair of gold jewelry and gold wisps from Jinyu building." the manager of Jinyu building quickly announced the result.


    Wei Si''an''s face was embarrassed. He didn''t expect that he would be defeated by Mohist Zi again. He didn''t doubt the fraud of Jinyu building. After all, these riddles are exquisite and difficult.


    Suddenly, he turned his eyebrows and said with a loud laugh, "the jewelry is originally a woman''s thing, but our noble men compete here. My younger brother is to make beauty smile. Please give brother Mo a convenience. My younger brother must be very grateful."


    If at ordinary times, Merton would not care about a piece of jewelry. Moreover, the full gold jewelry was his idea. As long as he nodded, how much such full gold jewelry would be needed and how much. However, at the moment, this full gold jewelry is what Princess Changle wants, Merton will not give in.


    "Brother Wei is joking. The Wei family has great wealth. How can one or two liang of gold be put in the eyes of the Wei family? The Mojia village is heavily in debt. It''s hard to get a pair of gold jewelry. How can you give in?" Merton flatly refused.


    Seeing Merton''s refusal, Wes Anton showed a successful smile and said maliciously, "this is my younger brother''s abruptness, but it''s for the sake of a confidant. It''s understandable, but I don''t know what brother Mo is for. Is it for the brother behind me?"


    "Brother?"


    All the people around were in an uproar. Suddenly, everyone''s eyes were fixed on the princess Changle in men''s clothes.


    At the moment, the lights are shining, but after all, it''s dark. In addition, Princess Changle has made some efforts to dress up as a woman since she was seen through by Merton. It''s difficult to distinguish between male and female in such darkness.


    "The kindness of Longyang and the habit of breaking one''s sleeves!" the people were all strange and looked at them with strange eyes. Among some dignitaries in Chang''an City, many people like Longyang. Many dignitaries often raise a * * and dress up as a woman, which is not a secret in Chang''an city.


    However, Merton is the dream lover of thousands of girls waiting for words in Chang''an city. He is also the famous Golden turtle son-in-law in Chang''an city. If it is said that there is a good thing of Longyang, it will certainly cause an uproar.


    "I didn''t expect brother Mo to have such a hobby. I admire him!" Wei Si''an shouted. He turned away without waiting for Merton to refute.


    Wei Si''an walked out not far away, turned his head and looked at the bright lights in front of the Jinyu building. A trace of cruelty appeared on his face. He said in a harsh voice: "immediately pass on the news that the Mohist family is a hobby of breaking their sleeves. I want to ruin the Mohist family."


    "But it''s a woman disguised as a woman!" the woman around Wei Si''an didn''t understand. With her woman''s identity, she can naturally distinguish the dress of Princess Changle.


    Wesan smiled strangely and said, "is that important?"


    What people care about is that it is always the most shocking news. It doesn''t matter whether the news is true or false.


    Princess Changle immediately bit her silver teeth and clenched her fists. She was staring at the direction of wesan''s departure. She was about to untie her long hair to prove Merton''s innocence. Unfortunately, she was held down by a middle-aged woman.


    "The princess should not reveal her identity." the middle-aged woman whispered and immediately calmed Princess Changle. At the moment, she was a man disguised as a woman. Naturally, people didn''t know her identity, but it was revealed that mojiazi and Princess Changle were traveling together on the Lantern Festival night. I''m afraid the sensation would be even greater.


    Merton''s eyes were cold and he stared at wesan. His heart was cold. Guessing riddles was just fun, but wesan polluted his reputation with such indiscriminate means.


    In fact, it doesn''t matter to him. Merton from later generations doesn''t think it''s a big thing, but after all, the matter involves Princess Changle and should be handled properly.


    "It''s such a beautiful day. Mo is full of poetry. I don''t know if there is paper and pen in Jinyu building." Merton laughed.


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou was more surprised than himself when he got the gold jewelry. He said in a surprise: "yes, of course!"


    "Boom!" the crowd suddenly exploded. No one thought that mojiazi would suddenly write poetry. You know, the poems handed down from Merton are all world-famous, well-known and destined to be handed down for thousands of years. Even Princess Changle has colorful eyes and looks forward to it. Jinyulou just sent out a piece of gold jewelry and got a poem from mojiazi, It''s a lot of money.


    Soon on the high platform, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were arranged.


    "Please, Lord Mo!" the shopkeeper of jinyulou said excitedly and incoherently.


    Merton smiled, reached out and inserted the gold strand in his hand into Princess Changle''s hair hoop, and walked up to the stage.


    Merton looked at the blooming trees and silver flowers on the rosefinch street, and the lanterns twinkled like a river of stars. On the rosefinch street, the sound of Phoenix flute, silk and bamboo continued to be heard, and the colorful light and shadow accumulated. At present, he was full of pride. He wrote and chanted: "flowers and trees bloom in the east wind night. The stars are like rain. BMW carved cars are fragrant all over the road. The sound of Phoenix flute moves, the light of jade pot turns, and fish and dragon dance all night."


    Everyone was shocked. Only this section, the grand scene of Zhuque street was near.


    Merton turned his head and looked at the glittering gold ray on the head of Princess Changle under the Chinese lamp. The person under the lamp looked shy and said in a vertical voice, "moth snow willow gold ray. Laughter is full of hidden fragrance. The people are looking for him. Suddenly looking back, the man is in the place where the lights are dim."


    Suddenly, a young man appeared in front of everyone. On the Lantern Festival, he met a woman wearing a golden thread and tried hard to pursue and look for it. However, he looked for it thousands of times in the crowd, but there was still no news. When he was lost, he turned around and saw that the man was in the dim light behind him. The surprise of his return immediately made everyone feel the same.


    "Is this poetic surplus?" the middle-aged scholar was shocked. He never thought that the poetic surplus he had never faced up to could be so beautiful.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is indeed poetic, but from now on, it will be called CI!"


    At this moment, countless people came to hear the good news that Merton loved Longyang. In the afterglow of Merton and under the escort of a middle-aged woman, Princess Changle quietly disappeared in the dark place.


    Soon, mojiazi loved the beauty of Longyang, and the new words of mojiazi in front of Jinyu building, the jade case on New Year''s Eve, instantly detonated the whole Zhuque street.

 Chapter 449

    "Mohists love Longyang." when the news spread all over Zhuque street, everyone was stunned,


    "It''s impossible!" the people didn''t believe it at all.


    To know the reputation of the Mohist family, it has always been very good. From family background to character and talent, the Mohist family has always been the best choice. In addition, its means like the God of wealth are favored by countless aristocratic families. If Merton nods, countless matchmakers will come to the door and will not let go of the golden turtle son-in-law of the Mohist family.


    However, Merton''s love life has always been a blank, and there are occasional rumors that the Mohist son is infatuated with the sword dance Shuangjue gongsunyue. However, when the news came from the Mohist village that gongsunyue was hired as the image ambassador to promote and solve thousands of worries, people with a clear eye can see that they are impossible.


    After all, if Mozi really liked Gongsun Yue, how could he make a public appearance and travel all over the Tang Dynasty to solve thousands of worries.


    Then there were rumors that Mohist Zi became a beauty when he was angry with Guan. He didn''t hesitate to offend Tuyuhun for the sake of Princess Changle. In this Tuyuhun war, Mohist has been actively promoting.


    Who would have thought that at this time, it was reported that the Mo family liked the kindness of Longyang. How can this be accepted by everyone.


    "We don''t believe it, but I saw with my own eyes that the Mohist school was in front of the Jinyu building. Merton had a close relationship with a beautiful man. He even didn''t hesitate to come forward in person to win gold jewelry for him and please him." someone vowed.


    Everyone was in an uproar. Jewelry and other things are women''s things. Men love jewelry. I''m afraid only men with a penchant for breaking their sleeves will like it.


    At the same time, the riddles and answers of the jinyulou lantern riddle competition were also quickly burst out. Among them, Mohist Zi used the wonderful means to solve the riddle, which not only confirmed the identity of Mohist Zi, but also added a third of the truth to the rumor out of thin air..


    For a while, the streets became a sensation, and people spread word of mouth one after another. Even the wonderful light market suddenly became dull. People watching lanterns near Jinyu building flocked to Jinyu building one after another.


    "Fart, you love Longyang. Merton is not that kind of person at all!" Qin Huaiyu, who is watching the beautiful dancing skills of Western dancers with interest in front of the stage in the western regions, immediately became angry when he heard the speech, grabbed the rumor maker''s neck and roared.


    They know Merton very well. Merton is usually very self-disciplined. Although they always laugh at him for being a thief and not daring, they don''t believe that Merton likes Longyang.


    "We have also heard from others, and some people have seen it with their own eyes." the rumor maker said tremblingly.


    "I saw it with my own eyes!" Chumo roared, "is it good for Longyang to be in parallel with a man? Have you ever been in parallel with a man?"


    "But the Mohists are still competing for gold jewelry?" someone objected.


    "Who wouldn''t want the free gold in front of him?" Wei Chi Baolin retorted. He found that his mind had never been so flexible and couldn''t help admiring himself.


    They were suddenly silent. After the interruption of the three people, they felt that the rumor of the good of the Mohist son Longyang did not seem to be accepted.


    Then, a more powerful news came that the mojiazi pushed through the old and brought forth the new in front of the Jinyu building, creating a new style - CI.


    "Flowers bloom in the east wind night, thousands of trees blow down, and stars are like rain..." a Confucian scholar recited the jade case on New Year''s Eve, looked around at the beautiful trees and silver flowers, and lit up the lights like stars in the sky. He couldn''t help feeling the scenery and indulging in it.


    Many scholars even sigh with regret. All along, they are unconvinced. Why are the Mohists so talented that they have repeatedly written peerless masterpieces? However, this time, in the same situation, almost all the scholars who came to Zhuque street have written poems. However, compared with the Mohists, it is very different.


    At the moment, everyone is intoxicated by the beautiful scenery of Zhuque street and the talent of Mohists. Such a popular language is more intoxicating than the beautiful scenery tonight.


    In an instant, countless people read the jade case on New Year''s Eve on Zhuque street. The poetic scene blended with the beautiful scenery in front of them, and they couldn''t help but yearn for going back and forth.


    Maybe the Zhuque street light market will be more prosperous in the future, but the Zhuque street light Market in the eighth year of Zhenguan, which is added by this masterpiece, will always be handed down through the ages with this word.


    "Is that the word?"


    Countless scholars sighed and marveled. No one thought that there would be such a beautiful poem besides poetry, which is more open in form. The use of long and short sentences makes it melodious and catchy. This first jade Case New Year''s Eve is an example. Even if people take the word jade Case New Year''s Eve and put it together into a poem, I''m afraid it won''t have such charm any more.


    Compared with poetry, CI is more unrestrained in form, breaking through the strict definition of poetry and more in line with the needs of citizens'' life. The strong living atmosphere of citizens in Chang''an city is just in line with the living environment of CI. Once it was spread, it immediately aroused the resonance of many people.


    "There is no symmetry and rhyme, which is an insult to poetry and destroys the rhythm!" many stubborn Confucian scholars disdain it. They think that Mohism has destroyed the structure of poetry, and more people applaud it. However, whether it is approval or negation, they can not deny the amazing talent of this word.


    "Moths, snow willows, gold strands, laughter and fragrance,..." Qin Huaiyu''s eyes brightened and suddenly said excitedly, "so what the poem says is a woman, and Merton is not the best of Longyang!"


    "Yes!" Chumo and Chumo suddenly realized that even if their literary talent was bad, they could see that the word was clearly written about a woman.


    "But what I saw was men''s dress." someone retorted.


    "Women dress up as men!" Qin Huaiyu said in unison.


    This is the Lantern Festival, and there are not a few women on the street. However, there are not a few ladies disguised as men. According to this analysis, it is very possible for the people around mojiazi to dress up as women.


    "In this way, the MOH family is not a good friend of Longyang, but a woman who swims the lantern with a woman disguised as a man." they suddenly said.


    With the addition of poetry, this statement soon gained the upper hand. Although some sporadic people still firmly believed that Mohism must be the good of Longyang, it was soon drowned in the crowd.


    "Pa!"


    In a private room of a restaurant, wesan angrily smashed the glass in his hand.


    "Mo family, I didn''t expect you to escape like this." Wei Si''an said with an embarrassed face.


    "Please punish me for my poor work." a servant knelt on the ground and trembled.


    Wesan sneered, "no, who says you''re incompetent. You''ve done what you should do!"


    "Ah!" the kneeling servant looked up puzzled.


    Weisi''an showed a trace of satisfaction and said, "whether the people around Mo Jiazi are men or women, this word has proved that Mo Jiazi has a sweetheart."


    Now that mojiazi has a sweetheart, it is almost impossible between him and Princess Changle. In this way, his chance of weisi''an will come.


    The Wei family is a great family in Chang''an city. There is also imperial concubine Wei in the harem, which is the best choice for royal marriage. Princess ice and snow makes Princess Changle famous. How can he not be moved by Wei Si''an.


    However, no one doubts that this person is a woman disguised as a man. As a long princess, Princess Changle''s external reputation has always been virtuous and virtuous, gentle and kind-hearted. How can she do such a shocking thing.


    Wei Si''an thought he had ruined the good deeds of the Mohist school, and was immediately proud.

 Chapter 450

    "The ink family has a sweetheart!"


    The news spread all over Zhuque street for the first time. Whether mojiazi''s sexual orientation is male or female, it at least proves a firm fact that mojiazi has a lover.


    Many people even saw Mojia Zi insert a golden thread into each other''s hair hoop. For a moment, countless girls in Chang''an city had broken their dreams. The most talented man in Chang''an city had a master, but that person was not them.


    "Who the hell is she?"


    This is the question in everyone''s mind. It is certain that this man is on Zhuque street and was near mojiazi not long ago.


    Suddenly, many people rushed to the Jinyu building to see its face and meet their curiosity.


    In front of Jinyu building.


    Like an old fox, the Qian family leader came late and quickly took the stage to make amends to Merton and said, "Lord Mo, forgive me. Jinyu building doesn''t know that Lord Mo needs full gold jewelry. If you knew earlier, you would have sent full gold jewelry to the door."


    Merton shook his head, looked at the money owner and said meaningfully, "what''s the fun of the free gift? Only when he wins it, he feels at ease. However, today he has to see the means of business predecessors. I have to say - good means of the money owner."


    The Qian family leader was in a cold sweat and his heart trembled. He was in the jewelry business. Naturally, he knew the value of full gold jewelry. Full gold was the thread that Merton helped him. With full gold jewelry, his Golden Jade building could become a leader in the jewelry industry of the Tang Dynasty. The value of it could not be estimated.


    In addition, although the full gold jewelry is valuable, it is not worth mentioning the kindness of Merton''s advice. Today, not only does the Jinyu building not favor the Mojia Zi, but it makes Merton reveal great information. If it annoys the Mojia Zi and his relationship with the Taoist waidan sect, I''m afraid the full gold will never have a chance with the Jinyu building again.


    The Qian family leader then clenched his teeth and said, "Lord Mo, forgive me. Today, Jinyu building is lucky to get the ink treasure of Lord mo. with such peerless poems, Jinyu building is willing to offer thousands of gold as a polishing fee."


    "Thousands of gold!" people around suddenly exclaimed, looking at Merton one by one with envy. In Chang''an City, this is probably the only high price for polishing pen.


    However, a thousand gold is valuable, but for the word mojiazi, no one thinks it is not worth it. On the contrary, it is thought that jinyulou took a big advantage.


    "No! It''s still Mo who got gold jewelry and took advantage of it." Merton waved his hand. After all, it''s not Jinyu building that calculated him, but he took the initiative to come forward. In addition, he is in a good mood today, so he naturally doesn''t care anymore.


    The people around felt heartache when they heard the speech. Thousands of gold were placed in front of them, but the mojiazi was not excited at all. They couldn''t help thinking of mojiazi''s poems. The thousands of gold came back after they had dispersed.


    At that time, I thought that the Mohist school was exaggerating. However, when I saw that the Mohist school was indifferent to thousands of gold wires, I knew that this was probably the real voice of the Mohist school!


    Qian didn''t insist. He was a partner of Mojia village. Naturally, he knew that Qianjin was nothing in front of the Mojia son. He nodded and said, "I''ll donate it to the Red Cross in the name of mohou!"


    Qian didn''t realize that this time he was wrong. The Red Cross Society was presided over by Princess Changle.


    Merton nodded helplessly when he heard the speech. After all, the owner of the money family did not suffer a loss. The value of the word "New Year''s eve of the jade case" alone will far exceed a thousand gold.


    "Where are the younger brothers and sisters? Where are the younger brothers and sisters?" with an impatient voice, Qin Huaiyu squeezed in.


    At the moment, countless people flock to the Jinyu building. Qin Huaiyu and the three can squeeze in. It can be said that they have wasted the power of nine cattle and two tigers. As soon as they come in, they look around and inquire around.


    Merton immediately covered his head with black lines and looked helplessly at the three bad friends.


    "What siblings do you have? Don''t talk nonsense." Merton said reluctantly. Merton was lucky. Fortunately, Princess Changle left early, otherwise I''m afraid it''s embarrassing now.


    Qin Huaiyu immediately sniffed. Now the whole Chang''an city is crazy. Can you deny it? The three looked around, where there was a figure, and they were disappointed.


    Seeing that Merton was alone at the moment, the people around him were disappointed. They came to see who was the right person for the Mozi? Obviously they''re going home disappointed.


    Many people had an idea and asked the people around them. Unfortunately, Princess Changle had been standing in the dimly lit place at that time. In addition, she didn''t appear in public at all, and others didn''t know her at all.


    "I didn''t expect that you Merton didn''t move. Under the sound, you were faster than the three of us!" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    "Yes, the most hateful one is still behind our back. When we go to see the western region dancers, tell us who it is? Who is the lady of the family who can hook up the hearts of the great Mohists?" Chumo said angrily. They just went to see the western region dancers for a while, but the Mohists made such a big noise here.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded again and again, with an expression of Merton''s lack of justice.


    "Don''t spread false information. There are no brothers and sisters at all." unfortunately, Qin Huaiyu and his three people, no matter how they ask, Merton has always kept his mouth shut and refused to admit it.


    "Without younger brothers and sisters, are you really a good friend of Longyang?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Merton with a frightened face and his shoulders in his hands.


    "The good of Longyang?" Merton was confused. Looked at the three puzzled.


    After Qin Huaiyu told Merton about the rumors of the whole Chang''an City, Merton immediately jumped up.


    "God damn it, who spread the rumor." Merton roared.


    "Who else can it be?" Chumo sneered.


    "Wesan!" Merton was suddenly angry. This has just passed. Not long ago, it has spread all over the rosefinch street, and only wesan, who has just failed to leave, is the most suspect.


    "Don''t let them see this guy, or they will not let him go." Qin Huaiyu said angrily.


    Merton''s eyes also had a cold flash. Wesan slandered him. He didn''t take it to heart, but if he was associated with Princess Changle, he had to be angry.


    If he wanted to avenge wesan, he couldn''t find anyone now, so Merton had to hold down this resentment.


    In front of Jinyu building.


    When they saw that mojiazi was alone, they slowly dispersed.


    However, the eight trigrams about Mohism spread more and more widely, and the dark storm is brewing constantly.


    "Look, the lantern is up!"


    Suddenly, there was a violent drink in the crowd. I saw countless Kongming lights rising in Chang''an city.


    Like half of the stars in the sky, they swam over Chang''an city. People were looking up at the sky and making wishes.


    Unconsciously, Shangyuan light Market in Chang''an City has entered the sound of night.


    This year''s Chang''an light market is not only bustling, but also nostalgic for going back and forth. In addition, countless people enjoy talking about Mohist''s popular poems and Mohist''s love gossip.

 Chapter 451

    ***After the celebration, Merton was very heavy. He slept until the sun rose. As soon as he got up together, he found that the whole Merton house was filled with a happy atmosphere.


    "Hello, young master!"


    "Hello, young master!"


    Every Mohist child who saw Merton greeted happily with a meaningful smile.


    "What''s the matter?" father Morton couldn''t touch the monk. He was full of doubts and puzzlement. He always felt that the ink family was strange today.


    "Please have breakfast, young master!" fuber quickly brought a plate of rich breakfast.


    Merton tasted it and his eyes lit up. It tasted great.


    "Young master, it''s still good for your taste. If it''s not good for your taste, I''ll ask Yuer to make it again." Fu Bo said kindly on his face.


    "Yuer! He''s not in yuzhuangyuan building. What are you doing here!" Merton almost didn''t get a mouthful of soup. Now, Master Yu has gone to Luoyang to host the Mohist food city. Yuer is fully responsible for the food city business in Chang''an city. How can he have time to cook in the Mohist house.


    Fubo said indifferently: "the business of yuzhuangyuan building is noon. Fish will come to Mo mansion to cook in the morning and teach the skills of Mo mansion''s cook, so that the young master can eat delicious food every day in the future."


    Merton was skeptical. He poured the food into the mouth. As soon as he went out, he was caught by Aunt Xu who had been waiting for him.


    "Oh! Young master, why are you still wearing clothes from years ago? Come on, let aunt Xu make some clothes for you again and keep you looking radiant." aunt Xu said involuntarily and took Merton to measure.


    "Isn''t this a new dress just made years ago?" Merton looked at his brocade robe and didn''t understand.


    Mohism has always advocated thrift. Although it has passed the previous days of poverty, it has not developed the luxury of throwing away a piece of clothes in a few months.


    Aunt Xu was not moved at all and insisted, "several new clothes were just popular in Chang''an City years ago. Don''t mention how handsome the young man is. Aunt Xu will make them for you now."


    In fact, aunt Xu already knew Merton''s dress number clearly. Rao was so. Aunt Xu still measured it meticulously.


    Soon, aunt Xu finished measuring and leaving with satisfaction, and Li Yi came in from the outside with a smile on her face.


    "Why is Uncle Li here!" Merton quickly got up and asked.


    "Uncle Li didn''t come for you today. If such a big thing happened, why don''t you give Uncle Li a squeak and let''s prepare." Li Yi said reproachfully.


    "Ready? What are you going to do?" Merton became more and more confused. From today''s bed, he found that the whole ink house was strange.


    "Propose marriage!" Li Yili said of course.


    "Propose to whom!" Murton said in amazement.


    "Of course, it''s Shangyuan night. The girl you sent her gold wisps. Since you are happy with each other, you naturally need to come to the door to propose marriage, otherwise you won''t disappoint other girls!" Li Yi said with a smile. At the beginning, they all worried about Merton''s marriage. Now it seems that they are all busy in vain. Merton did everything without saying a word.


    "Go to the door and propose marriage!" Merton suddenly understood why the whole Mohist family is so today. It seems that it is still because of yesterday''s rumors.


    "Don''t worry, young master. Now the Mojia village has become rich. Coupled with the young master''s talent, whether it''s the daughter of that family, the Mojia village can afford the bride price and deserve her." Li Yi said proudly, as if all the girls in the world are eager to marry Merton.


    "If it''s inconvenient for me to show up, Uncle Li will fight this old face and ask Mrs. Qin to match you." Li Yi patted his chest and promised.


    The Mohist village was named "brother sun is really erudite" by his majesty


    Everyone praised, this is the origin of Mohist CI.


    "In this way, the Mexican family must be a beauty when they visit the light market!" exclaimed his companion.


    "Eight nine is not ten! But it should be women disguised as men, otherwise the Mohists would not use the jade case as the name of the word." Sun Ju Ren nodded.


    After all, on the night of Shangyuan, there are many ladies disguised as men to travel, which can reduce a lot of trouble.


    "I said, how could the Mo family be that kind of person!" the people around couldn''t help nodding.


    Everyone was disappointed. The news was not as good as that of Longyang.


    "But who can get the favor of Mohism?" this is the most curious thing.


    "I''m afraid if the Mohists don''t say, no one will know if the woman doesn''t show up." sun Juren shook his head and said.


    Everyone sighed, and their curiosity was even more.


    Suddenly, a young man in green ran over in a panic and exclaimed, "I''m out. The woman who accompanied the Mexican family on New Year''s Eve appeared yesterday?"


    Everyone was shocked and hurriedly said, "seriously, which young lady is it?"


    The boy shook his head blankly and said, "I don''t know yet. They haven''t fought yet."


    "Contend?" the crowd suddenly a fog.


    The young man in Green said helplessly: "at once, more than a dozen girls wore gold strands and admitted that they were the women who accompanied the Mexican family on New Year''s Eve that day."


    "More than a dozen!"


    Everyone was suddenly covered with black lines.

 Chapter 452

    Obviously, there could only be one woman around mojiazi last night. How could there be more than a dozen women who admitted at the same time? It is also obvious that among them, only one is true, not even one.


    "The Mohists are really lucky!" everyone had to lament that the Mohists were so lucky that they even attracted so many women.


    "Isn''t it that the love Keepsake given by the MOH family to the woman is the first gold strand? It''s hard to judge." Sun Ju frowned.


    The young man in green shook his head and said, "although the pure gold jewelry is very high, it is almost the same as ordinary gold jewelry from the appearance, and it is very difficult to distinguish."


    Sun Juren didn''t understand: "doesn''t Jinyu building have its own exclusive logo?"


    The young man in green shook his head and said, "why not? Gold wisps are very common jewelry. Almost all women in large families in Chang''an City have them. Even the Jinyu building doesn''t know how much they have sold. If a woman really takes out the gold wisps originally bought in the Jinyu building, I''m afraid there''s no way to identify them."


    Everyone suddenly became silent. The anti-counterfeiting methods in this era are extremely limited. If so, I''m afraid there''s really no way to distinguish them.


    Sun Juren suddenly chuckled and said, "what are we doing here? I''m afraid it''s the Mohist school who is really worried!"


    The crowd burst into laughter.


    "What would the Mo family do?" Sun Ju Ren''s companion laughed,


    They thought the gossip of Shangyuan night was already very exciting, but they didn''t expect more excitement in the follow-up.


    "What''s the difficulty? As long as the MOH family comes forward and denies it directly." a drinker doesn''t understand.


    "I''m afraid that''s what these women want," sun Juren sighed.


    The crowd was immediately puzzled.


    "If the Mohist family comes forward and denies all the protection of the right person, there must be a woman who insists that she is the woman and accuses the Mohist family of abandoning all the time and damaging the reputation of the Mohist family. If the Mohist family tells her the right person, it must let a little woman bear the criticism of the whole city, which is not done by men."


    After sun Juren''s analysis, everyone could not help but be silent. Although the Tang Dynasty was open, the defense between men and women still existed. In the eyes of men, this was a romantic story, but for women, they would certainly bear a lot of criticism.


    Transposition thinking, if they stand in the position of Mohism, I''m afraid they will be in a dilemma.


    For a moment, the news of women fighting for husband outside the Mo house soon spread all over Chang''an City, which immediately aroused heated discussion in the whole city.


    In the Mo mansion.


    Li Yimu stared at more than a dozen carriages parked at the door. He was still complaining that the young master didn''t say each other''s names, but now more than a dozen came out at once.


    Obviously, most of them are fake, but the trouble is that they can''t refute them at all!.


    "What should I do?" Li Yi said at a loss.


    "Please come forward, don''t you? Don''t you know when you see it?" an idle man coaxed in the crowd.


    "Yes, it''s better to explain to other girls."


    "Don''t the Mohists want to give up all the time."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the crowd, opinions vary, and many people coax one after another.


    All the people in the ink house look dignified. If this matter is not handled well, the reputation of the ink house will be ruined.


    Outside the Mo mansion, among the crowd watching the excitement, wesan sat on the carriage and heard the roar of the crowd. He couldn''t help being very proud.


    "The Mohist family, this time it''s up to you to avoid this pass." Wei Si''an said with a sinister face. When he spread the good of the Mohist family, he didn''t expect to be dissolved by one of his words.


    If one plan failed, he wanted to have two plans. Unwilling, he came up with such a sinister trick.


    "But young master, if the Mohist family really came forward to see them, wouldn''t they be able to tell at a glance?" said the servant who spread the rumor last night next to weisi''an.


    "Come forward?" Wei Sian sneered. "Do you think these women are afraid of the Mexican family? Don''t they know they are fake? Maybe what they want is to see the Mexican family."


    The Mohist family is famous in Chang''an City, just like the stars of later generations. How many people want to meet but can''t. If they can take this opportunity to meet the Mohist family, I''m afraid it''s right for them. This is also the reason why Wei Si''an can gather so many women without effort.


    "And even if the Mo family comes out today, we don''t need to find someone tomorrow. There will certainly be several times as many people in the Mo house as today." I have to say that Wei Si''an is indeed some ghosts and has mastered the psychology of chasing stars in future generations.


    "Young master, you are wise!" the servants of the Wei family said with admiration.


    At the moment, the louder the noise in front of the ink house, the situation is about to get out of control. Wesan couldn''t help but show a proud smile.


    With a squeak, the door of Mo mansion opened heavily. I saw a young man in royal clothes coming out of the ink house. They couldn''t help but be quiet and look at the young man involuntarily.


    "Young master!"


    Li Yi immediately looked at Merton with worry and stood in front of Merton.


    When Wei Si settled down, his excited face flushed. As long as the Mo family came forward, he fell into his trap.


    Merton shook his head and took a firm step. Suddenly, a pair of bright eyes on the carriage looked at Merton curiously.


    "Thank you very much. Mo deserves your love." Merton bowed to the carriages. Of course, he knew that Princess Changle could not be on the carriage, but from such a secular perspective, no matter what reason these women took the initiative to appear, they had braved great courage and were the most difficult to accept beauty''s kindness!


    On the carriage, the women were moved for a while. Their move put Merton in an embarrassing place, but Merton didn''t blame them.


    "Mo houmo monster, I''m abrupt." a clear and pleasant voice came from the carriage nearest to Merton. Just listen to the voice, you can imagine that there must be a beautiful woman on the carriage.


    "Please come forward to me. If Mo Hou has seen my body and thinks that my body is not yesterday''s person, I will immediately turn around and leave without entanglement." the pleasant voice said urgently.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not necessary to meet each other. Please come back!"


    Once they meet, even if Merton denies it, it will damage the reputation of these women. These women are just impulsive, so Merton naturally has to think carefully.


    The woman on the bus didn''t understand and said, "mohou is not afraid. We are the people of last night. We missed it."


    Merton sighed: "the certificate you use is the gold strand in your hand, but you can also tell that you are not yesterday''s person by placing an order with the gold strand in your hand."


    Everyone was stunned and couldn''t believe it. Even the most powerful craftsman in Jinyu building couldn''t distinguish the authenticity of these gold strands. Could the Mexican family even distinguish them?


    Merton stepped forward and Lang said: "in the Far West, Archimedes, who is comparable to Mohist saint, once encountered the same problems as today."


    "Archimedes?" the crowd wondered for a moment. Then they remembered that this man was the son of Mohism, who proposed the great sage of Mohism abroad at the western regions conference.


    "It is said that the king of the Western Kingdom asked the craftsman to make a pure gold crown for him, but after making it, the king suspected that the gold crown made by the craftsman was not all gold, but the gold crown was as heavy as the pure gold given to the goldsmith. Did the craftsman embezzle the gold?" Merton said loudly.


    Everyone was stunned and couldn''t help looking at the gold wisps hanging in front of the carriage. These gold wisps, like the first full gold gold wisps, were of the same weight and style, which was difficult to distinguish. This was very similar to the scene at that time.


    "The king wanted to test the truth, but he could not destroy the crown. This problem not only baffled the king, but also made the ministers look at each other. On the suggestion of a minister, the king invited Archimedes to test it. At first, Archimedes thought hard, but there was nothing he could do."


    They frowned and thought hard. They shook their heads and sighed. Just like today, they knew that at most one of these gold strands was true and the others were false, but they couldn''t tell which one was false.


    "How did this foreign Mohist school do it?" someone asked loudly in the crowd.


    There was a vague guess in the hearts of the people. Since the Mohist was able to tell the story, there must be a solution and it must be able to break today''s situation.


    When Merton heard the speech, he immediately showed a confident smile. When Wes settled in the crowd, his heart sank and shouted bad.


    Sure enough, Merton shouted, "one day, Archimedes took a bath at home. When he sat in the basin, he saw the water overflow. Then he suddenly realized and found a solution."


    Merton''s story was so eloquent that people couldn''t help listening.


    "When he came to the palace, he put the crown and pure gold of the same weight in two pots full of water. Comparing the water overflowing from the two pots, he found that the water overflowing from the basin containing the crown was more than that from the other pot. This shows that the volume of the crown is larger than that of pure gold of the same weight, which proves that the crown is mixed with other metals." Merton solved the mystery.


    The crowd was suddenly shocked.


    Merton said proudly, "gold is the heaviest metal in the world. Under the same weight, the volume is the smallest. Similarly, the gold strand is the same. Last night''s gold strand is the first full gold strand in the world. Under the same quality, the volume is the smallest. Other gold strands are not full gold. Their volume should be greater than enough gold. As long as they are tested by this method, they will be known at once."


    Wei Si''an''s eyes were about to crack. He never thought that the Mexican family should be so strange. In this impossible situation, he could turn over the plate.


    "Mohist is worthy of being a Mohist." everyone sighed one after another. As long as Mohist is there, he will be able to do everything and create miracles.


    "Please! The Mo mansion has ordered the Jinyu building to be tested one by one. If it is damaged, the Mo mansion will compensate for the cost." Fubo sighed.


    However, the carriages did not move at all, and the sound of sobs came from time to time. Although they were encouraged to come, the most important feeling was the mojiazi, and even what they asked was just to see the mojiazi. However, this wish was also dashed.


    "Is mohou really so cruel? He won''t even see us?" a sweet voice sobbed in the carriage closest to Merton.


    Merton trembled in his heart, then firmly shook his head, and said in a helpless voice, "he once thought about amorous damage to Brahman''s line, and he was afraid not to fall into the city when he entered the mountain. The world is safe with the double integrity law, and he will live up to the Tathagata and Qing."

 Chapter 453

    "Goddess has a heart, Xiangwang has no dream!"


    For a moment, everyone sighed.


    In this poem, Merton compares himself to a monk who is dedicated to practice. When he meets the temptation of the world of mortals, he is tangled in his heart, and at the same time, he expresses his firm refusal.


    "Live up to the Tathagata, live up to your honor. I have no regrets if I can get this poem!" the pleasant voice rose again, and there was some relief in the voice at the moment.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and said, "come on, send these girls away, and make sure that their reputation can''t be damaged at all."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, more than ten children of the Mohist family took over the coachman. Naturally, these women would not let their families know when they came to the Mohist house. The hired vehicle was also a carriage in Chang''an city. It would be bad if it was spread by the coachman with a big mouth after getting off the bus and gained a bad reputation. Merton''s move can be said to be a safe policy.


    Most of the coachman readily gave up the carriage. After all, those who made four-wheel carriages in Mojia village would not be greedy for their own carriages. If they were damaged, they might be able to compensate for a brand-new four-wheel carriage. Some Coachmans just wanted to resist, and then they started with a silver ingot, and all of them immediately quieted down.


    "Drive!"


    Four wheeled carriages galloped away, and the farce of women fighting for husband came to an end slowly. With the people around Mo''s house leaving one after another, it soon spread all over Chang''an city.


    "Measure gold with water."


    In the pan restaurant, everyone heard that mojiazi used such a simple method to distinguish whether the gold strand is red or not. At this time, although there is no density, this common sense can be understood that wood is light and large and metal is heavy and small. Naturally, they can also accept Merton''s method of measuring the purity of gold.


    "The Mohists are really erudite! I said it would not be difficult for him!" sun Juren said with a sure face. He didn''t know that he was thinking of watching the jokes of the Mohists just now.


    "Who would have thought that the problems of countless people in the Tang Dynasty have been solved in the far western country for hundreds of years." shopkeeper pan couldn''t help sighing.


    "In my opinion, the Mohist school is just a person who controls the secret skills outside the domain." a Confucian scholar refused.


    Many people nodded and said that the Mohist family was not his own real ability, but directly used the methods of foreign Mohists.


    "Having said that, the foreign secret skills are in the far western country, and no one has stopped you from getting them. Why do you gossip here sour!" a strong man in Black said sarcastically.


    "You..." scholars in Confucian clothes became angry. The extreme western country is thousands of miles away. How could they know that the only way is to come from businessmen in the western regions. It can be imagined that if the western region grand meeting is held again this year, exotic unique knowledge will certainly attract countless people.


    Shopkeeper pan immediately said, "although the art of distinguishing gold of Mohist school uses foreign secret skills, that poem is a real talent."


    This time, everyone could not help nodding. Although Mohist Zi''s secret technique of debating gold had played a role in solving the situation, it could not be easily solved by reasoning for infatuated women. Mohist Zi''s poem skillfully resolved the situation.


    "The Tathagata is worthy of your honor!" Sun Ju Ren reread Merton''s poems and couldn''t help sighing.


    "Tathagata! Isn''t that a Buddhist allusion?" the Confucian scholar wondered.


    "I didn''t expect that the Mohist family was even proficient in Buddhism, not to mention that the Mohist family controlled foreign secret skills. It''s embarrassing for me to rely on this knowledge of concurrently cultivating hundreds of schools!" Sun Ju Ren nodded and sighed. Among the hundreds of schools, Buddhism was not included. Buddhism was spread from the western regions in the Western Han Dynasty.


    There is a saying in later generations, which is very suitable for everyone''s mind, that is, it is not afraid that others are better than you, but that people who are better than you work harder than you, which is still suitable for everyone''s mood.


    After all, the Mohist family is in charge of the theory of one family and controls the unique learning outside the territory. More importantly, the other party also studies the hundred family theory. From the level of knowledge, the Mohist family directly crushed the people.


    "This time, not only did the Mo family preserve their reputation, but also for all the women. It is said that the coachman who stayed in the Mo family village signed a confidentiality agreement and dared to talk nonsense. Shopkeeper pan sighed.


    What makes people even more impressed is that the Mohist family showed an excellent gentleman''s style. Is it the last policy for the Mohist children to escort the women away, which is even more amazing? In this way, no one knows the identity of the women and preserves their reputation for the women,


    "Don''t you mean sending those women to the Jinyu building for a test?" the strong man in black wondered.


    The Confucian scholar immediately looked at each other with a fool''s eye and said, "if only you had an IQ of 10% of Mohist."


    The strong man in Black got up and roared, "sour Confucian, how dare you bully me."


    The Confucian scholar sneered and said, "bullying you, this is praising you. How can those women''s gold strands be true, and how can they go to the Jinyu building to humiliate themselves."


    The scholar in Confucian clothes was angry by the strong man in black just now. At the moment, he just breathed out.


    The crowd suddenly realized that the strong man in black sat down awkwardly.


    Huichang temple in jinchengfang is a well-known temple in Chang''an city. Incense in the temple is prosperous and prosperous, and an endless stream of good men and women come to worship.


    In the temple, a handsome young monk was doing Dharma seriously. The female benefactors who came and went couldn''t help but aim at his face.


    The shy woman peeped at him and blushed. Many brave women made fun of him. He was a young monk.


    "It''s a pity to be such a handsome monk!"


    When a young man is officially young and ignorant, how can he not notice the hot eyes, his heart can''t help but be confused, and he doesn''t know that the Dharma in his hand is wrong.


    "Debate! Your mind is confused!" behind him, an old monk sued a Buddhist horn.


    The young monk was immediately shocked. He quickly concentrated and held his breath. After a long time, he turned back and said calmly, "the debate is in phase. Please forgive me."


    "I''ve thought about hurting Brahman''s behavior with affection, and I''m afraid I won''t fall in love with the city when I enter the mountain. The world is safe with the double integrity law, and I will live up to the Tathagata and Qing." the old monk recited it, and the defense machine couldn''t help listening. This poem was like written to him.


    "This is a new work of the Mohist school. As a teacher, I specially read this poem for you today. I hope you can abide by your original heart. Once you enter the Buddhism, you must have six clean roots. Don''t be greedy for the world of mortals." the old monk advised.


    Now the Taoist school''s refining of the pill of growth and life, coupled with the secret skill of hair dyeing of the waidan school, has gained momentum. It has absorbed a large number of believers at once, and the number of believers visiting temples has greatly decreased. The situation of Buddhism is particularly difficult. Moreover, now hundreds of schools of thought have sprung up, and master Xuanzang, a Buddhist, has gone to Tianzhu. His life and death are uncertain. If the Buddhism does not make progress, I''m afraid it will decline day by day, Left far behind by hundreds of families.


    The defense machine is the Buddhist disciple he attaches most importance to. His Zen understanding and wisdom are first-class. He has been familiar with the Scriptures and Zen theory since he was young. Over time, he will be able to carry the banner of Buddhism against a hundred schools.


    However, the biggest defect of the debate machine is to give birth to a good skin bag, which is naturally a great joy for an ordinary person, but it is a fatal disadvantage for abstinence Buddhists.


    "Mojiazi!"


    There was a movement in his heart. He had heard a lot about the name of Mohist Zi, even if he was practicing hard in the temple.


    In fact, he knows no less than the old monk. Even in his heart, he has been familiar with the jade case on New Year''s Eve. If there is such a day, can he look back and see the man under the dim lights? Can he live up to the Tathagata and the Qing?


    "The defense machine will abide by the teacher''s instruction."


    The debater bowed his head respectfully, but his eyes showed a trace of confusion.

 Chapter 454

    In front of Jinyu building,


    Overcrowding, its lively situation is not inferior to last night. After a night of brewing, the jade case became popular in Chang''an City on New Year''s Eve.


    Since dawn, there has been an endless stream in front of the Jinyu building. Countless poets, scholars, rich businessmen and tycoons have come to the Jinyu building, on the one hand, to inquire about the favorite of the Mohists, on the other hand, to appreciate the popular jade case on the new year''s Eve. More tycoons spend a lot of money and directly customize full gold jewelry. If you can''t wait, buy existing jewelry directly.


    At noon, the crowd did not increase but decreased. When the news in front of the Mo house came, more people flocked to the Jinyu building, waiting for the girls holding gold wisps to identify the authenticity.


    Although Mohist''s lover is still a mystery, if you know the identity of these women, it is a hot topic.


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou took the opportunity to attract customers into the store. Even if the weather is still cold, he is still busy sweating.


    Finally, having a free time, the shopkeeper of jinyulou came to Qian''s master who came to the town in person and pointed to countless people outside who were ready to watch the excitement: "boss, it''s noon now. It seems that those women won''t come."


    The Qian family leader nodded. They had expected this situation and said, "since it can''t be true, how can they come?"


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou regretted: "since you don''t come, I''ll take down these full gold."


    The Qian family leader shook his head, showed an inexplicable smile and said, "it''s not necessary. The demonstration is going on as usual. I''m worried that I can''t prove that the gold in the Jinyu building is full gold. I didn''t expect Lord Mo to send the method so soon."


    A Taoist school alone is not enough to convince people that the gold in the Jinyu building is full of gold, but if you use the method of Mohism to let the guests measure directly, the reputation of the Jinyu building will naturally increase greatly.


    "The boss is wise! I''ll prepare now." the manager of jinyulou admires.


    As like as two peas of gold, the other two were the same size of glass cups, and the other was a large glass cup, which was sent to the public by the mohfu government. "This is a measuring cup for water measuring by Mohist, and the water level is equal in the measuring cup, and the gold thread and the weight of the gold block in the bottom are equal."


    After the shopkeeper of jinyulou asked the audience to check it in person, he said loudly, "it''s confirmed that it''s correct. Later, I''ll put the gold strand and full gold in my hand into the measuring cup. You''ll know the right and wrong as soon as you see it."


    Under the attention of the public, the shopkeeper of jinyulou put the gold strand and full gold into different measuring cups respectively. As expected, it can be seen that the water level of the measuring cup with full gold is low, and with the addition of the same amount of gold and full gold, the water level in the measuring cup is even more and more different.


    Some people even as like as two peas of gold jewelry.


    "If so!" everyone was in an uproar.


    This confirmed that mojiazi''s method of testing full gold was indeed applicable, and also confirmed that the gold in jinyulou was indeed full gold.


    "You kids and old people in jinyulou are not deceived. All gold jewelry purchased in jinyulou in the future can be confirmed by this method." the shopkeeper of jinyulou took the opportunity to advertise.


    "We naturally believe in Jinyu building. I want to customize a golden strand, and the price is not a problem." a rich businessman shouted at the moment.


    At the moment, with the hot discussion of the jade case on New Year''s Eve, the golden strand has become the most promising thing in the ideals of countless girls. If there is a full gold strand, it will be in the limelight.


    The shopkeeper of jinyulou was in a dilemma and couldn''t help looking at the money master sitting aside.


    The Qian family leader got up and said with a loud smile, "this distinguished guest is sorry. In order to repay Lord Mo''s poetry, Jinyu building decided not to make gold wisps from now on. The gold wisps sent by Lord Mo are the first full gold jewelry in the world and the only full gold gold wisps produced by Jinyu building. If you want to, you can choose other styles."


    "The only one?" suddenly the people couldn''t help looking at the money owner. It can be imagined that taking advantage of the continuous spread of the jade case on the new year''s Eve, if Jinyu building built the same gold strand, it would sell well. No one thought Jinyu building would do so.


    The Qian family leader smiled and showed gratitude on his face. In fact, his heart was like dripping blood. In this way, the loss of Jinyu building could not be counted. However, some ordinary gold jewelry caused such a storm. If he made another gold strand that can''t tell the true from the false, I''m afraid it would make a big deal.


    You should know that the biggest reason why the Jinyu building has enough gold is that the Mojia Zi leads it. If you offend the Mojia Zi, I''m afraid as long as the Mojia Zi gives a little hint, the Taoist waidan sect will immediately break the gold of the Jinyu building. At that time, the Jinyu building will return to its original shape. It''s better to be a good friend at the beginning.


    "At the same time, Jinyu building promised to use thousands of gold for Lord Mo''s brush polishing last night, but it was rejected by Lord mo. Lord Mo regarded money as dung, but I can''t help but repay my kindness. Just in the morning, Jinyu building had donated thousands of gold to the scarlet letter society in the name of Lord mo. you can check later." Qian took the opportunity to add another fire.


    "Lord Qian is really benevolent and righteous!" they praised one after another. So far, the Jinyu building became popular in Chang''an city.


    In the legislative palace.


    Empress Chang sun looked at the Red Cross account book and frowned: "Merton donated a thousand gold?"


    Behind him, a middle-aged gong-e bowed and said, "go back to your mother. The maids and maids have checked. This is not the sum donated by Marquis Mo, but the polishing fee offered by Jinyu building to Marquis mo. Marquis Mo didn''t accept it. Jinyu building donated it with the reputation of marquis mo."


    "New Year''s eve of the jade case?" empress Chang sun involuntarily came up with this popular word in her mind. Obviously, if Mohist Zi can write such poems, he must have a deep love for the women in the words.


    As a woman, empress Chang sun has a delicate mind. She is unique in this poem and has a lot of feelings. She and Li Shimin are also happy with each other. Naturally, they have a deep understanding.


    "So the woman beside Merton last night was still a mystery!" asked the eldest grandson.


    Middle aged Gong e nodded and said, "I''m afraid no one knows who this woman is except mohou so far."


    "Oh!" empress changsun suddenly aroused her curiosity and said, "did Changle leave the Palace last night?"


    Middle aged Gong Ying lowered his head. "Back to the empress goddess, your royal highness did go to the market last night, but no matter whether to go or to come back, it was all women''s clothing."


    Empress Chang sun doesn''t know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or regret. According to reason, the Mohist son is indeed a good match, talented, knowledgeable, and able to share weal and woe with thousands of families in the Mohist village. She can''t pick out any brush in her character.


    But after all, Princess Changle just withdrew from her marriage. Empress changsun felt guilty about her close relatives. According to the research of doctors, Princess Changle, who is less than 15 years old, is really a little younger. She hasn''t made any moves.


    Who could have thought that a favorite of Mohist school would appear on a Shangyuan night. What''s more worrying is that no one knows who this favorite is?


    Empress changsun was restless. She got up and went to Changle palace. Whether the woman was Changle or not, she decided to go there herself.

 Chapter 455

    In the Changle palace.


    Princess Changle, dressed in a yellow Palace Dress, was doing eye exercises. After a complete set of eye exercises, a maid immediately took out her eyesight chart. Princess Changle carefully recorded her vision changes according to the vision chart.


    After recording all this, Princess Changle collected these copies very precious.


    "There is no ophthalmology among the doctors of the Tang Dynasty. Huangmei''s move will become a school in the future and benefit countless people of the Tang Dynasty." Li Tai, waiting for Princess Changle to finish her work, praised her.


    When Princess Changle heard the speech, she suddenly showed a look of pride on her face. At present, if the Tang Dynasty is talking about medicine, she can''t turn to her, but if it''s talking about Ophthalmology, she is a well deserved leader. One eye exercises alone is enough to stand out from all doctors.


    "Unfortunately, sometimes, even the best medicine can''t cure some people''s eyes?" Li Zhi said in a strange way.


    "Nine younger brothers, what do you say? Can''t you believe Changle''s medical skills?" Li Tai sang and said.


    Li Zhi shook his head and said, "sister Huang''s medical skills are naturally excellent. How can some people really be blind? You don''t know that there are so many women in Chang''an City who like the Mo family. It''s not blind. What is it?"


    Li Zhi is indefatigably slandering Merton. Every time Merton has more poems, he has to recite one more. He has long had a deep resentment against Merton. He takes this opportunity to revenge one arrow.


    "Don''t talk nonsense. Those are good family women." Princess Changle couldn''t help staring at Li Zhi. If she said so, wouldn''t she be blind too? Li Zhi scolded her in a roundabout way.


    "Not negative Tathagata, not negative Qing!"


    The story in front of the Mo mansion has been spread all over Chang''an City for a long time. Naturally, I have heard it in the imperial palace. Princess Changle naturally knows Merton''s new work.


    For these women like Merton, although Princess Changle has some taste in her heart, she is more proud. The more people like Merton, the better Merton is and the more able she can prove her vision.


    And Merton''s treatment was quite perfect. He didn''t have the slightest contact with those women, and let those women retreat automatically.


    "In my opinion, it''s the Mohist school who is blind and even falls in love with a woman on Zhuque street. It''s really against the teachings of the sage." Li Tai was deeply educated by Confucianism and directly attacked Merton from the perspective of ethics.


    "Fourth brother, Merton seems to be a descendant of the Mohist family." Li Zhi wondered.


    Li Tai immediately stagnated and stared at Li Zhi with hatred. Which side are you on! After thinking about it, he raised his head and argued, "can the Mohists chat up women in the street?"


    "The fourth brother is right." Li Zhi nodded quickly.


    "According to me, that woman must not be a serious family,..." Li Tai said angrily.


    "Well, don''t say any more. It''s a gentleman who criticizes people behind their backs."


    Princess Changle was suddenly covered with black lines. She knew that Li Tai came to comfort her, but they didn''t know that the LORD was right in front of her.


    Seeing that Princess Changle was getting angry, Li Chengqian waved to them to shut up and said, "don''t worry about Changle. Wait for brother Wei to go to Merton and ask clearly. If you can''t, it''s not too late to ask your father to marry."


    Li Chengqian''s original intention was to make Princess Changle not sad. There was still room for things to turn around. He didn''t expect to add fuel to the fire.


    "Which one wants to get married!" Princess Changle said crazily. In this way, doesn''t she want to compete with herself?


    "What marriage?" the voice of the eldest grandson queen suddenly came from the outside.


    "Ah!" Princess Changle was so ashamed that she glared at the three of Li Chengqian. They hurried to meet the empress changsun and ran away.


    "See the queen mother!" Princess Changle said.


    Empress changsun gently let the three of Li Chengqian go, went to Princess Changle and talked about some self-care words.


    "Changle, how are your eyes recovering?" empress changsun asked with concern.


    Changle respectfully said, "after returning to his mother, after the child presses the acupoints, he has almost recovered. Now he doesn''t need to wear glasses. I believe that in a while, the child can return to the women''s medical school for medical treatment."


    The most important reason why Princess Changle is still in the palace is that her glasses have not been restored and she asked for leave to suspend school in the palace.


    The empress changsun immediately said with pity: "it''s really bitter and Changle. Which long princess in all dynasties suffered from this pain."


    As the eldest princess, she should have grown up carefree and loved by thousands of people. However, Princess Changle gave up her leisurely and comfortable life and went to the women''s medical school to study hard. I''m afraid that the princess''s going to study is the first of all princesses in the past dynasties.


    "This is what Changle did voluntarily, and Changle doesn''t regret it." Princess Changle didn''t lie. When she came out of the palace, she was like a caged bird out of trouble. In the women''s medical school, she saw too many novelty completely different from that in the palace. If she was allowed to choose again, she would do the same.


    Empress changsun''s bright eyes turned and said, "the mother''s body has greatly improved. It''s time for Changle to consider a big deal. As a long princess, how can she practice medicine like an ordinary woman!"


    Although the treatment of women''s medical school is excellent and naturally attractive to ordinary people, it is chicken ribs for the royal family. Naturally, Princess Changle can''t learn skills all her life.


    "The child is still young?" Princess Changle quickly shook her head.


    "Still young? My mother married your father at the age of 13, and you are now 15." the eldest Sun Queen said angrily.


    Princess Changle immediately held the arm of empress changsun and said, "empress mother, according to the rules of doctors, getting married at the age of 15 is also an early marriage, which is very risky. Besides, the child wants to accompany her all the time."


    The eldest grandson queen said, "men should marry women. Even if you don''t get married, you can get engaged first! It''s only been waiting for about a year. Today, after looking for her mother, imperial concubine Wei mentioned that her mother''s family has a nephew, Wei Si''an, who is the legitimate son of the Wei family. She''s just a good match. She looks good and talented. She''s also a good match."


    The Wei family is also an aristocratic family that has been inherited for thousands of years. The legitimate son and Princess of the Wei family are also worthy.


    "Wesan?"


    Princess Changle couldn''t help thinking of the slander that wesan had made against her when she left last night. She shook her head and said negatively: "But Wei Si''an, who competed with Lord Mo on the night of the Lantern Festival, can compete with Lord Mo and be a little inferior. He can indeed be called talented. However, I''m afraid he has a bad character when I heard that Wei Si''an was accompanied by a seductive woman and failed to guess the Lantern riddle."


    It''s just an ordinary person, but she clearly saw a trace of banter in the eyes of the woman next to wesan. It''s obvious that they all knew that they disguised themselves as men and were so slandered at that time, which was obviously sinister.


    Princess Changle''s evaluation of her bad character directly put weisi''an in a humiliation frame, which was regarded as the anger of last night. Weisi''an never dreamed that his plan was doomed to fail from the beginning, or even to be thankless.


    Empress Chang sun nodded thoughtfully when she heard the speech. The story of last night had already been spread. The battle between Merton and wesan was naturally described in detail. Empress Chang sun naturally knew it in detail. It seems that wesan''s character is really not good.


    Empress Chang sun nodded her head slowly and said, "it''s a bit inappropriate to say so. You are the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, you should choose a good match. You should not only have talent and learning, but also have personality. Wait for your mother to refuse. However, if Changle has a lover, you can naturally tell her and wrap it on her."


    Princess Changle was shocked when she heard the speech. She blushed and said, "the child has been in the palace for a long time. There are women in the women''s medical school, and her daughter is still young. Now she doesn''t want to consider it."


    Hearing the speech, empress changsun got up reluctantly: "that''s OK. The mother refused to return the Wei family first. There are countless good families in Chang''an city. She must find a good match for Changle."


    Changle said respectfully, "congratulations to the empress."


    When empress changsun left, Changle was relieved and spit out her tongue playfully. In order to keep the secret of last night, she directly banned the entourage of last night and asked him to go all the time without giving anyone a chance to divulge the secret.


    However, she did not know that when her grandson left, her face suddenly changed into a clear expression. She was the queen of the palace. In the harem, she wanted to get what news, and naturally there would be countless people as her eyeliner.


    When she was talking with Princess Changle, when she mentioned last night, the middle-aged woman of last night''s guard turned her back to Changle and nodded vaguely to the empress changsun.


    At the moment, the eldest grandson Queen''s heart is like a mirror.

 Chapter 456

    South of the city, vedu, go to heaven.


    Wei Xuancheng, the ancestor of the Wei family, has been a senior official since the Yuan emperor of the Han Dynasty and has been handed down to the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years. The Wei family has always been prosperous.


    Wei''s residence in Chang''an city is a first-class luxury residence, covering an extremely wide area. The attic courtyard in the courtyard is exquisite and magnificent. In the living room of Wei''s residence, Wei Si''an is anxiously turning around, looking restless.


    "Be steady!" Lord Wei shouted angrily when he saw his son''s dispirited appearance.


    Wesan sat down bitterly, but his face became more and more anxious.


    "Father, why hasn''t there been any news from the palace? Isn''t it because the imperial concubine hasn''t mentioned it to the queen? This is the best chance!" Wei Si''an said impatiently.


    According to his plan, he first polluted the reputation of the MOH family, and then spread it to the whole city. As long as Princess Changle heard about it, he would naturally be disgusted with the MOH family. Now he took advantage of the opportunity to propose marriage to Princess Changle. It is a great opportunity to succeed in one fell swoop.


    After hearing his son''s plan, the leader of the Wei family was also greatly moved. Although the Mohist family used strange tricks to crack the stigma, now everyone in the city knows that the Mohist family is interested in someone.


    If the Wei family''s plan is successful and Wei Si''an can marry the legitimate eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, the Wei family''s prosperity is just around the corner. Under the temptation of such huge interests, the Wei family master did not hesitate to agree to his son''s plan and entrusted Princess Wei in the palace to propose marriage.


    "Don''t worry, the imperial concubine and empress have naturally promised, and we will do it naturally. We just need to wait for the news." Lord Wei suppressed his impatience.


    At this time, there was a sudden noise outside Wei''s house. Wei''s second brother, Wei Sizheng, panted and ran in. The Wei family naturally dared not let servants do such an important thing, but let Wei Sizheng wait for news at the gate of the palace.


    "Second brother, how''s it going? It''s done!" wesan asked eagerly when he saw the second brother.


    Weisi was taking a breath, looked at his brother with inexplicable eyes and said, "the imperial concubine has proposed marriage to the queen, but the queen didn''t agree."


    When Wei Si settled down, his face stiffened, while Wei''s master suddenly looked at his second son in disbelief.


    "How could it be? It shouldn''t be!" Wei Si''an couldn''t accept it. According to the reputation and status of the Wei family and the elimination of the biggest rival of the Mo family, this thing should have been sure.


    "What''s going on? Tell me the details." the Wei family leader said in a deep voice.


    Weisi said, "originally, when the imperial concubine proposed to the queen, the queen was also quite moved, but she didn''t immediately agree. Instead, she went to the Changle palace to ask for the opinions of Princess Changle. Unexpectedly, Princess Changle didn''t agree with the marriage and refused directly."


    When Wei Si settled down, he said angrily, "it only takes parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words to make a marriage contract. How can the queen consult Princess Changle."


    Lord Wei said helplessly, "I''m afraid the queen has been guilty of Changle since that incident, so she will give priority to the opinions of Princess Changle."


    The two brothers were immediately silent. Naturally, they knew that the matter was that the close relatives of changsun Chong and Princess Changle withdrew their marriage. The queen helped them get married and wanted to kiss each other. Who would have thought that Mohist and doctors had a stake in directly turning the marriage yellow.


    "Did Princess Changle ever explain why she disagreed?" weisi''an still inquired.


    Wes paused, looked at wesan, and wanted to stop talking.


    "If you have anything, just say it." Lord Wei frowned.


    Weisi was gnashing his teeth and said, "Princess Changle said frankly that the third brother was with a woman last night, slandered the Mo family, misbehaved and had a bad character. He rejected the imperial concubine and empress on this reason."


    "Misbehaving, bad character!" the Wei family leader immediately took a breath and staggered back a few steps.


    With these words alone, once spread, the future of his three sons will be ruined.


    Wesan looked surprised and angry. He never thought that he would come to such an end after trying his best to plan.


    "Villain, you have ruined the thousands of years of the Wei family." the master of the Wei family trembled and pointed to Wei Si''an and lamented. Once this word spread, it will damage not only Wei Si''an, but also the Wei family in the south of the city.


    Wes settled down with a pale face.


    Suddenly, Wei Sijing, the eldest son of the Wei family, hurried in and whispered a few words in the ear of the Wei family master. The Wei family master suddenly changed his face, suddenly turned his head and looked at Wei Sian and shouted, "rebel son, the imperial historian of the court wrote a letter to impeach the Mo family, which is against etiquette and discipline, has no engagement, and has a private meeting with a woman, but it''s still your handwriting?"


    "What kind of censor impeached the Mohist family?" Weisi said wrongfully when settling down: "my father wronged my child! My child admitted the rumor that the Mohist son Longyang was good and encouraged all the girls to fake gold strands, but how can I invite the censor!"


    "But why did the imperial censor help the third brother deal with the Mo family?" Wei Sizheng wondered.


    Master Wei shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I''m afraid this is not to help the villain, but the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism!"


    He believed that Wei Si''an had no ability to invite the imperial censor in the court, and the trigger of this incident was provoked by the villain. Instead of success, it plunged the Wei family into the vortex of the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism.


    "The dispute between Confucianism and Mohism!"


    The three brothers of the Wei family immediately looked at each other. Only then did they realize how sensitive the identity of Mozi was. Although the Wei family has a great family and great cause, if they fall into the vortex of the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism, I''m afraid they can''t resist it!


    Now, as soon as Merton showed a flaw, some Confucian scholars rushed up to attack recklessly.


    "The Mohist school is weak now, only the Mohist village is left, and the Mohist son is only a seven grade official. How can he win the Wei family in the south of our city?" Wei Si''an snorted angrily.


    As soon as Wei Si''an said this, the hearts of the people were a little more stable. The Wei family in the south of the city did not know how many storms they had experienced in the past dynasties. How could they be afraid of an MO family.


    "Sir, it''s bad!" the housekeeper of Wei''s house hurried in and said with a panic on his face.


    Master Wei said calmly, "what''s the matter?"


    Housekeeper Wei is in charge of the Wei family''s huge industry. If he can be so frightened, something big must happen.


    "Taoist priest Changsheng of xuandu Temple announced to sell his ancestral printing and dyeing skills. Now the cloth merchants in Chang''an city are crazy." housekeeper Wei said with a panic on his face.


    With regard to printing and dyeing, Taoist priest Changsheng can be said to be unique in the world. He originally came from a cloth merchant. In order to cheat, he has studied the secret skill of hair dyeing all his life. So far, among all printing and dyeing technologies, Taoist priest Changsheng''s secret skill of hair dyeing is the only one that does not fade.


    No fading is common in future generations, but in the Tang Dynasty, this is probably the most advanced technology!


    Although Taoist Changsheng only sold his ancestral printing and dyeing skills this time, not his hair dyeing skills, it was enough for cloth merchants to flock to them.


    The Wei family leader immediately turned pale, which was more painful than hearing that the future of Wei Si''an was ruined. He wanted to support a huge aristocratic family. Naturally, the income from the land alone could not make ends meet.


    In addition to being the largest grain merchant in Chang''an City, the Wei family is also the largest cloth merchant in Chang''an city. Their ancestors had unique vision, firmly controlled the two necessities of clothing and food, and earned countless wealth for the Wei family. Around Chang''an City, the Wei family relied on the printing and dyeing technology inherited for hundreds of years. The printed and dyed fabrics are of the best quality and firmly hold the top position of cloth merchants in Chang''an city.


    Now, if Taoist Changsheng''s printing and dyeing skills spread out and were acquired by the Wei family''s competitors, the Wei family''s advantages would surely disappear. Now the Mojia village has risen, hoarding a large amount of grain in the south of the city, building brick roads, and pouring in a large amount of grain from Luoyang. The profits of grain merchants have been very meager. If the Wei family loses the advantage of cloth merchants again, I''m afraid it will hurt their muscles and bones immediately, With the loss of financial resources, the Wei family''s downfall is not far away.


    "Taoist priest Changsheng, why did you suddenly sell printing and dyeing skills?" Wei Sijing said in horror.


    Suddenly, the people had a meal in their hearts and said, "Mo family!"


    Everyone knows that Taoist priest Changsheng has a close relationship with the Mohist family. His hair dyeing skills cooperate with the Mohist family. Now wesan has offended the Mohist family. The Mohist family''s Revenge finally came, and as soon as he took the shot, he took the biggest lifeline of the Wei family.

 Chapter 457

    In the hall.


    The book of rites says: "men and women don''t sit together. They don''t throw flail and towel bars. They don''t give in person


    A white haired Quan Wanji is quoting scriptures and making an impassioned speech. According to him, it is against etiquette for men and women to meet and speak.


    "Lord Quan is worthy of being a learned man and is actually a moral model of the Tang Dynasty." many ministers nodded in agreement.


    Quan Wanji got the support of the courtiers and said angrily: "although the Mohists have talents and fame, they misbehave like disciples. It''s against ethics to privately decide to live with women in the street. If they don''t punish them, I''m afraid they will let the youth of Chang''an City follow suit first and undermine the ethical foundation of the Tang Dynasty. It''s a great crime!"


    "This is the rule of Confucianism. Merton is a child of Mohism. I''m afraid it''s wrong to accuse Merton with the book of rites!" Qin Qiong said.


    Hearing Qin Qiong''s advice, many generals nodded one after another. Quan Wanji quoted Scriptures as Confucian classics. Moreover, Confucianism and Mohism have always been at odds, so I''m afraid it doesn''t apply very well.


    Li Shimin nodded at the speech and said, "it''s common for young people to be affectionate and love. There''s no need to blame too much!"


    At the moment, Li Shimin naturally didn''t know that this woman was Princess Changle. If he knew, I''m afraid he wouldn''t think so.


    Quan Wanji stubbornly said, "although Merton is a child of the Mohist family, the words of the matchmaker ordered by his parents are the ethics of heaven and earth. If he loves in his heart, he can ask someone to ask for a marriage. The Mohist family gives a token of love privately. Without the consent of the woman''s parents, they have a private relationship. Isn''t it against the ritual?"


    In this era, the marriage of men and women follows the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers. Everything is arranged by their parents. There are many people that men and women have never seen before marriage. Merton''s act of making love to women without their parents'' consent is simply unforgivable in the view of traditional ethics.


    Hearing Quan Wanji arguing like this, even Li Shimin was silent. According to the current secular society of the Tang Dynasty, Merton''s move is indeed inappropriate.


    Qin Qiong sneered and said, "as the saying goes, people don''t sue officials and don''t investigate. If you want to cure Merton''s crime, you must at least have a victim! I don''t know who Lord Quan is presiding over justice, but the woman''s parents?"


    Quan wanjiton was delayed. Qin Qiong''s words hit his biggest weakness. That''s this thing. He never knew who the woman was!


    No matter how many crimes Quan Wanji has listed, it can''t be implemented. You don''t see such a good opportunity. All the other Confucian children are silent, but Quan Wanji, such a stubborn and rigid person, rushed to the front regardless of his disregard.


    Li Shimin also immediately said curiously, "so now I don''t know who the woman is?"


    All the ministers nodded helplessly. The rumor about the Mohist son flew all over Chang''an City, but the woman never showed up, just like a mystery.


    Qin Qiong showed an inexplicable smile and said, "listen to the boy in my family, Merton insisted that he just met by chance. Just like what was written in the word, he didn''t know the identity of the woman."


    The ministers were stunned and showed a strange smile. Some open officials couldn''t help laughing and said, "just young!"


    Ask them if they don''t have similar impulses at Merton''s age, but they don''t have such good luck and talent as Merton.


    "How could it be? They have gold wisps as keepsakes, and they will be exposed sooner or later." Quan Wanji ten thousand people don''t believe it. That''s the famous Mo family in Chang''an city. They have unique intelligence and mind. How can they make such a low-level mistake.


    Li Shimin waved his big hand and said, "then wait until the woman''s parents tell you, and then discuss it."


    This is an important event in the court. How can it be a place to discuss the private affairs of Merton''s children? Li Shimin is also suspected of favoring Merton. If the woman''s parents know that the Merton family is in love with their daughter, I''m afraid it''s too late to be happy, and they won''t sue.


    Although Quan Wanji was helpless, he had to give up, but looking at his firm face, everyone knew that this matter was far from over.


    Li Shimin was relieved when all the officials withdrew from the court after dealing with the government.


    "By the way! Why haven''t you seen Merton go up to court recently?" Li Shimin suddenly asked pound aside.


    Pound bowed and said, "back to your majesty, marquis Mo claimed that he was a seven grade official. If he couldn''t meet the standard of the court, he didn''t come to the court."


    The standard of the Tang Dynasty is that officials with more than five grades are eligible to participate in the court meeting. Of course, those with titles can also participate. According to the rules, it is reasonable for Merton not to go to the court on the grounds of his own seven grades officials.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "at this time, he knows the rules."


    Pound said with a smile, "from the old slave''s point of view, Lord Mo is a young man who is active. He can stand the hard work of the morning every day. I''m afraid he wants to be lazy and sleep in!"


    Li Shimin nodded. Although Merton was a descendant of the Mohist school, he did not carry forward the concept of hard study of the pre-Qin Mohist school. On the contrary, even ordinary Mohist children were not as good as them. He produced a lot of goods for pleasure.


    "I asked him to go back to the firearms prison. He was in a good mood and was in the mood to go shopping. Did he dislike that he, a seven grade official, was not worthy of his status as a marquis!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    Li Shimin was furious when he thought of Merton going to a light market and making trouble in the chaotang hall.


    Pound on one side bent deeper. The Mohist school was so noisy in Chang''an city. Coupled with the rumors of Mohist School and Princess Changle, the palace recently taboo Mo Shen.


    Li Shimin calmed down a little and asked, "how''s the progress of the firearms supervisor?"


    "Your Majesty, now the great craftsman Yu Wenbo of the Ministry of industry has made great progress in building a firearm prison with Mohist instruments. According to mohou''s Memorial, the first phase of the project will be completed in mid February, and gunpowder can be made." pound handed Merton''s Memorial and said respectfully.


    Li Shimin took over Merton''s Memorial, read it in detail, nodded, and in mid February, there was plenty of time.


    "Order Morton, if you delay the western expedition, I can''t spare him!" Li Shimin said angrily. The western expedition is coming. Li Shimin needs to worry about all aspects of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, he won''t spend all his mind on Morton.


    "Yes!" said pound respectfully.


    Li Shimin suddenly felt a move in his heart and said, "Merton controls the secret skill of gunpowder. In order to prevent interested people from approaching, he should try his best to explore. Be sure to find out who is the night of Shangyuan of the Mexican family?"


    In his heart, he wondered who Merton''s lover was on the night of Shangyuan?


    It''s just that he can use the information of the imperial court to explore the private affairs of a minister. It doesn''t make sense. He has to find a reason for himself.


    "No need to explore. The palace already knows who it is?"


    As soon as pound was about to turn and leave, he heard the voice of the eldest grandson queen from outside the hall.

 Chapter 458

    "What is Changle?" Li Shimin was shocked and raised his voice involuntarily.


    Empress Chang sun nodded solemnly.


    "Mojiazi, you disciple, dare to make Changle''s idea and see how I can cure you for bullying the king." Li Shimin said with an embarrassed face.


    Just now he didn''t agree with Quan Wanji''s performance. Now, he can''t agree.


    As the saying goes, her daughter is the lover of her father''s last life. As Li Shimin''s eldest daughter, Princess Changle has been loved by Li Shimin. Now a shriveled calf has been brought away with a pot and flowers. What makes him angry is that she has not been allowed by him, how can she not make him angry.


    "Someone!"


    Li Shimin just wanted to call the bodyguard, but was stopped by Empress changsun.


    "At the moment, no outsiders know about it. If you make such a big fuss, wouldn''t it be known all over the city?" empress Chang Sun said anxiously.


    Li Shimin suddenly asked the bodyguard to step down for the time being.


    "Moreover, there is no real evidence of this matter. If it is hard, it will only embarrass Changle." empress changsun worried.


    Princess Changle has already experienced a divorce, and she is already very sensitive. If there is a storm all over the city, she will make Changle shameless.


    "What do you say?" Li Shimin said sadly, involving his daughter. Even if Li Shimin was the emperor, he couldn''t help being upset.


    Empress changsun turned her eyes and said, "what else can we do? Among the young talents in Chang''an City, Merton is a well deserved leader. If he is happy with Changle, he is also a good match."


    "Just him?" Li Shimin sniffed. Now he doesn''t like Merton 100.


    Empress Chang Sun said reluctantly, "well, now Changle is almost fifteen and has reached the age of marriage. If you go to find a better match for Changle than Merton."


    Li Shimin immediately concluded that in the younger generation, no one can really compare with Merton.


    "Is it so cheap, Merton, the smelly boy!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    He found that Princess Changle had almost everything to do with Merton since she met Merton, from quitting marriage, studying medicine, opening an ice cream shop to restoring her eyesight.


    "Maybe this is fate!" said the eldest grandson.


    To tell the truth, when she learned that the mysterious woman''s identity was Princess Changle, she was also deeply relieved. In this way, Changle also had a belonging. After all, as a woman, what she wanted was just an object of mutual love.


    Merton was particularly satisfied with the poems he wrote on New Year''s Eve and the way he dealt with women holding fake gold strands.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the Changle palace,


    All the palace maids and eunuchs noticed the change of Princess Changle. They often sat there giggling for no reason, or locked themselves in the house and didn''t know what they were doing for a long time?


    "Princess! The ice cream shop sent the account book for the princess to have a look." there was a knock on the door, and outside the door came the voice of a middle-aged woman on the night of Lantern Festival.


    Sitting in front of the dressing table, Princess Changle was in a panic. She quickly pulled out the gold strand on her head, put it into the bottom of the box and locked it firmly. Only then did she sit upright and say, "Liu Changshi, come in!"


    Chang Shi is a female official in the palace. Liu Chang Shi is the middle-aged woman who accompanied Princess Changle on the Lantern Festival night.


    "Princess highness, this is the ice cream shop last year''s account book. Zhou Yuchu finished it and asked the princess to check it." Liu Changshi respectfully.


    "OK, show it up!" Princess Changle reached out and took it.


    "The princess has bad eyes. There''s no need to work so hard. Only servants can do it well." Liu Changshi advised.


    Princess Changle waved and said, "it won''t take much time to look at the account book. If the ice cream shop can produce one more penny, the poor people can earn one more penny."


    Now all the income of the ice cream shop is used to run the Red Cross, and every penny is crucial.


    Seeing that he was not persuading, Liu Changshi sighed in his heart, bowed out of the room and closed the door.


    When Princess Changle heard that the door was closed, she immediately opened the account books. Even in winter, the ice cream shop still had a prosperous business and a lot of income. For the income of these account books, Changle carefully compared them and carefully planned the use in her heart. Only then did she nod with satisfaction.


    After all this, she couldn''t wait to turn to the last page. The last page was full of messy groups of Tianzhu numbers.


    However, seeing this, Princess Changle looked around carefully, and then took out a pharmacopoeia from the bookshelf.


    Open the key points, compare with a group of Tianzhu numbers, and say, "page 10, line 5, character 8."


    He said in his mouth and quickly turned his hand to the place. By analogy, the four words of Changle Qinqi soon appeared on the rice paper.


    If future generations are here, they will be surprised. Who would have thought that Merton used the password of underground workers to write a love letter? It''s a big hole in his brain.


    Princess Changle quickly cracked all the passwords, wrote them on the rice paper, and picked up the rice paper. Her heart was like a deer bumping into it. She couldn''t help reading it again and again. This way of secretly communicating feelings was extremely exciting for Princess Changle, who was very strict in etiquette and education.


    After reading it several times, Princess Changle reluctantly burned the love letter and tore the ciphertext from the account book. Then, according to the same password, she wrote a heart ciphertext on a new page of the account book with a blushing face and a trembling pen in her hand. She made mistakes several times before she wrote a heart ciphertext.


    After a long time, Princess Changle calmed her mind and shouted at the door: "Liu Changshi, return this account book to the ice cream shop and order Zhou Yuchu to give it to the palace every ten days."


    Liu Changshi came in, respectfully took the account book, bowed back and walked out of the palace.


    "See the emperor and the empress."


    It is without rhyme or reason. Liu Changshi is summoned by Li Shimin and empress grandson. Since Li Shimin and empress sun have known the things of Princess Changle and Merton, the princess of Changle has to look at the accounts of the ice cream shop without any reason. Naturally, she can not hide the eyes of two people.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly and opened the account book. He thought that how deep the Mohist school was, he hadn''t caught the handle.


    However, to his madness, when he turned over the account book, he found nothing.


    "Why not?" Li Shimin said inconceivably. Does Changle really just want to check the account books.


    Liu Changshi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please look at the last page."


    Li Shimin turned to the last page and was confused when he saw the dense numbers.


    "Is this the word of Changle?" empress Chang Sun said in a surprised voice.


    Liu Changshi nodded and handed a transcribed ciphertext torn by Princess Changle to Li Shimin.


    "The two of them send letters by this?" Li Shimin said inconceivably. He took two ciphertexts and looked left and right. It was still a pile of irregular numbers.


    Liu Changshi nodded with a bitter smile. "I''m afraid the information is only known by her royal highness."


    With a sigh, the empress changsun returned the account book to Liu Changshi and said, "you can send it back to the ice cream shop as instructed by the princess. If you have this article in the future, you can copy it."


    "Yes!" Liu Changshi bowed back.


    When Liu Changshi left, Li Shimin still thought hard about the ciphertext written by Merton, but he was confused.


    Obviously, he has caught it right. Who could have thought that Merton used this method without leaving any handle? This feeling that he was openly passing a love letter to his daughter under his eyes, but he was powerless is really crazy to the extreme.


    "Mo family!" Li Shimin said angrily.

 Chapter 459

    Mo Fu Zhong.


    Morton Morton arched his hand and said to Taoist priest Changsheng: "thank you, Taoist priest Changsheng. This time, it was mo who dragged Taoist priest Changsheng down."


    In order to revenge the Wei family, Merton directly attacked the printing and dyeing cloth, which is the lifeline of the Wei family. It can be said that Taoist priest Changsheng took a lot of risks,


    The eldest son looked at the list in his hand and said with a trace of satisfaction: "Lord Mo laughed. This time, I still took advantage of the poor."


    Although Taoist Changsheng nominally sold the ancestral printing and dyeing secret skills, it was actually an improved printing and dyeing secret skill of the Mohist school. It was just sold in the name of Taoist Changsheng. In order to compensate the eldest son, Merton waved his hand and directly returned all the wealth to the Taoist waidan sect.


    Now the Taoist waidan sect is almost exhausted. Although it has a lot of money, it is a long stream and can''t hydrolyze the thirst. This time, it sold the printing and dyeing secret skills and got a lot of money at once. The Taoist waidan sect has a chance to breathe.


    Although he offended the Wei family this time, Taoist Changsheng didn''t regret it at all. If the eldest son made a choice, the eldest son couldn''t refuse this temptation.


    "Mo Hou is really erudite. I thought his ancestral printing and dyeing secret was a secret. I didn''t think it was worth mentioning compared with the printing and dyeing secret of Mo School." Taoist Changsheng sighed.


    According to the printing and dyeing secret skills provided by Merton, the eldest son also experimented several times, and the results were amazing. Although the dyed cloth also had color fading, it was very little after cleaning once.


    What''s more amazing is that there are only three background colors red, blue and yellow in the printing and dyeing skills of the Mohist school. Under the instruction of the Mohist school, Taoist Changsheng uses these three background colors to mix a variety of colors. The dyed cloth is extremely bright and has endless colors.


    Many cloth merchants were overjoyed after the experiment and did not hesitate to spend a high price. This harvest satisfied Taoist Changsheng.


    "Taoist priest Changsheng is flattered. Compared with Taoist priest''s secret skill of hair dyeing, this skill is not worth mentioning." Merton said modestly.


    Taoist priest Changsheng suddenly showed a sense of complacency when he heard the speech. He was once exposed by Merton for his secret hair dyeing skill, but now his secret hair dyeing skill has become his greatest pride.


    "It''s said that Marquis Mo is also quite proficient in Buddhism." Taoist Changsheng moved in his heart and pointed out that Merton''s responsibility for the Tathagata is not negative to Qing. As soon as this poem was published, it was wildly spread throughout Chang''an city.


    The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has a long history. Taoism and Buddhism compete for believers. The relationship of competition is no less than that of Confucianism and Mohism. Taoism has never been absent in the destruction of Buddhism in all dynasties, and the rise of Buddhism is often accompanied by the decline of Taoism.


    Although the two families maintain peace on the surface, the secret competition has always existed. Now I didn''t expect that mojiazi is even proficient in Buddhism. How can I not worry Taoist Changsheng.


    Merton smiled. Of course, he knew the worry of Taoist priest Changsheng. He smiled and said: "Taoist priest Changsheng, don''t worry. According to Mo, arithmetic, alchemy and ink technology are the three primary colors of a hundred schools."


    Taoist priest Changsheng was stunned. He couldn''t help looking at Merton in surprise. He didn''t expect that the MOH family had such a high evaluation of Taoist alchemy and reached a position comparable to the MOH technology.


    "Mo Hou really thinks that alchemy can be compared with ink skills." Taoist priest Changsheng doesn''t even have self-confidence. How brilliant the Mojia village is now, which makes the Taoist waidan sect develop into the same scale as the Mojia village, which is something Taoist priest Changsheng dare not think of.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "if the waidan sect can solve the mystery of material longevity, a hundred years later, the Taoist priest of longevity will be able to pass on his name to history. The waidan sect has formed its own vein and can''t help it."


    Taoist priest Changsheng was shocked when he heard the speech, and his eyes firmly said, "since Marquis Mo attaches great importance to it, waidan sect will certainly live up to Marquis Mo''s expectations."


    "However, marquis Mo should be careful. There have been a lot of criticisms from the government and the public recently!" said Changsheng and Changning.


    Merton smiled bitterly at the speech. He was not only criticized a lot, but almost everyone blamed.


    Merton and Princess Changle fell in love on the night of the Lantern Festival. In the eyes of all young people, it is so romantic, but in the eyes of some old-fashioned people, it is simply treacherous.


    At a young age, this is the love of teenagers. At a large age, Merton''s move is free love. In an era when parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words are popular, free love is like a bolt from the blue for some stubborn people.


    The court has the power to impeach Wanji, a diehard. In Chang''an City, many old-fashioned and extremely sour scholars have accused Merton and denounced Merton''s behavior as immoral.


    Although Merton directly attacked the lifeline of the Wei family in Chang''an City this time, which showed the determination and strength of the Mohist counterattack, in the dark, many people contributed to the fire.


    For a moment, even if Princess Changle was hidden in the dark, it was still a hot discussion in the whole city, and Mohism was at the forefront of public opinion.


    Merton sneered and said, "don''t worry, Taoist priest Changsheng. It''s just some clowns. The Mohists don''t care."


    Taoist Changsheng nodded. Naturally, he had learned about Merton''s magic for a long time. Then he laughed and said, "I''m ready to drink mohou''s wedding wine at any time."


    Merton immediately looked embarrassed.


    "Taoist priest, go slowly!"


    Merton personally sent Taoist priest Changsheng out of Mo mansion. With a little wave, tie an immediately drove a four-wheel carriage to stop in front of him.


    "Go to Dongshi."


    Dongshi ice and snow Qiyuan ice cream store, although the weather is still cold at the moment, there is still an endless stream of people coming to taste ice cream and business is booming.


    Seeing Merton coming in, chef Zhou immediately flashed, but pretended not to know him and said, "Sir, what do you want to order?"


    "Pack a cup of milk tea!" Merton handed a piece of silver.


    Although the income of fruity popsicles is less in winter, under Merton''s proposal, the ice cream shop has started the milk tea business, which has been highly praised, and the money is not much less than that in summer.


    "OK!"


    Soon, chef Zhou Yuchu personally packed a cup of milk tea and handed it to Merton.


    "My guest, milk tea should not be drunk more. It''s best to drink it once every ten days." Zhou Yuchu said warmly.


    Merton moved in his heart, nodded, took the milk tea, turned and left.


    Back in the car, Merton opened the package. Sure enough, he saw a folded paper in the package. When he opened it, he saw groups of digital passwords on the paper, revealing a trace of tenderness.


    Soon, the code love letter was translated. Merton was a man for two generations. It was his first love. His palms trembled and his heart beat faster.


    "This silly girl wants to be public to help the Mohists share the pressure." Merton looked at the ciphertext, and Princess Changle''s heart couldn''t help but feel distressed and moved.


    "As a man, how can a woman bear gossip."


    He not only wants to get rid of these rumors, but also let Princess Changle become the envy of everyone when the truth is made public.


    "It''s time to fight back against these Confucian ethics." Merton snorted coldly.

 Chapter 460

    Ten day off.


    Quan Wanji rarely went to court, but he didn''t relax and rest. Instead, he wrote at home, ready to continue to contact his old friends, continue to criticize the absurd behavior of Mohist Zi, and wrote more than ten letters in succession. Then he put down his brush, rubbed his sore arm and nodded with satisfaction.


    "Housekeeper, send someone to send these letters according to the address on the envelope. In addition, bring this issue of Ink magazine." Quan Wanji said.


    Although Quan Wanji is not ashamed of Merton''s behavior, he is extremely satisfied with Merton magazine. Now, Merton magazine has become a "man and woman marry, it is natural and natural. In secular marriage, one of them is mutual love. The book of songs says: Chichi of hooligans, embrace cloth and trade silk. When bandits come to trade silk, I will seek." Merton uses the opening of Weifeng hooligans in the book of songs, Describe the scenes of ancient women and men falling in love before marriage and talking about their wedding date.


    The book of songs is one of the four books and five classics of Confucianism. It is a must read for readers. Merton attacked the shield of the son with the spear of the son and cracked the accusation of Quan Wanji with the Confucian classics.


    Confucianism advocates ancient rites. However, in the spring and Autumn period and the Wei state period, it was common for men and women to meet before marriage, and they could even negotiate the marriage date themselves. How come in the Tang Dynasty, it became immoral for men and women to meet and make love before marriage. Compared with the scenes in the book of songs, Merton''s behavior on New Year''s Eve was almost normal.


    "Alas, people in ancient times were happy with each other, but now the ancient customs of the Tang Dynasty are broken, and the love between men and women is better than that of Sichuan. Men and women are nothing more than arranged by their parents, and our youth are like string puppets at their mercy." Merton shouted loudly in his article, criticizing the phenomenon of baby parents, child brides, and men and women not knowing each other before marriage.


    Quan Wanji looked at each word like a sharp arrow. Thousands of arrows pierced his heart. Suddenly, his face flushed and dizzy. He sat down in a chair and let the ink journal fall in his hand.


    At the same time, as the ink magazine spread to thousands of families, Merton''s article was like a basin of cold water poured into an oil pan. In an instant, the whole Chang''an city was like a frying pan, which was hotly discussed all over the city.


    "The second is the baby kiss. A man is a brother and a woman is a husband and wife. It seems that he has deep love and a promise. In fact, he is the most irresponsible parent in the world. In order to fulfill his promise, regardless of each other''s character and character, he lost his children''s happiness in a paper marriage."


    In the pan restaurant, sun Ju read Merton and sighed, "the son of the Mohist family really dares to say!"


    Whenever someone orders a baby kiss, it will become a good talk in the local area. However, no one has ever cared about the opinions of their children. On the contrary, if one party destroys the kiss, it will certainly be condemned by public opinion. Even if the defendant goes to the government, he will finally have to fulfill the engagement. Merton''s words directly unlock the beautiful appearance of the baby kiss and show the bloody cruelty in front of the public.


    Just ask, if you order a baby kiss, the other party is a fool. At that time, a marriage letter is in hand, whether to marry or not, whether to marry or not.


    Many people who have ordered baby kisses at home look embarrassed when they see this Vinton. The complacency that determined the baby kisses in their hearts has long disappeared, leaving endless remorse.


    "The third is the child''s adopted daughter-in-law. At the age of 10, the son-in-law''s family welcomes the eldest to be a daughter-in-law. This is also the child''s adopted daughter-in-law. They eat and live together since childhood. They are not like husband and wife. They are like sisters or brothers and sisters. They only have family affection and love. Women are just tools for family succession. They are not close relatives better than close relatives. This is the tragedy of human relations."


    Although child brides were popular in the Song Dynasty, they were not absent in the Tang Dynasty. Some families had too many children. In order to worry about reducing the burden on the family, or in order to worry that when they grew up, they could not marry a daughter-in-law, they often adopted a childhood woman to raise them.


    This often occurs in poor families, but it is not absent in Chang''an city.


    "Child''s daughter-in-law! It''s better not to be a close relative than a close relative." many people were embarrassed.


    The concept of close relative marriage was put forward by doctors last year. Once close relatives get married, the chances of disability of children born to both sides are doubled. However, although the child''s adopted daughter-in-law is not a close relative by blood, it is an ethical close relative marriage.


    "Fourth, arranged marriage. The orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are secular rituals, that is," accept collection "," ask for name "," accept auspiciousness "," accept collection "," request period "," kiss welcome "and" six rites ". In the sparse discussion of the law of the Tang Dynasty, it is said that parents and other legal elders are the principal marriers of children and children.


    But now the defense between men and women is very serious. Men don''t know women and women don''t know men. It''s all up to their parents. When we meet for the first time that day, the marriage has become a success. Whether the other party is pockmarked or lame can only be doomed. "


    "Ha ha, ha ha, pockmarked, lame." Li Shimin said happily with the newspaper.


    Empress Chang sun looked at Li Shimin angrily and said, "you are still in the mood to laugh."


    Li Shimin quickly said, "if this boy is a shrinking turtle, I still despise him. I didn''t expect him to show up and take the initiative to fight back. It gives me a high look at him, but it''s impossible for me to forgive him."


    Li Shimin was so angry that he thought that Merton had seduced his daughter under his eyelids.


    "Still talking about others, what about you? Who was it at the beginning? As soon as she accepted mining, she often leaned over the wall to peek at others." empress Chang sun thought of the past and said shyly.


    Li Shimin immediately looked pleased. Recalling the scene of their first meeting, a warm feeling flowed between them.


    "Are you sure that some parents will treat their children like this and find a pockmarked or lame son for their daughter?" the eldest grandson queen leaned against Li Shimin''s chest and asked softly.


    Compared with others, the eldest grandson queen is extremely lucky. Although her parents died early, she was lucky to meet her kind uncle. She not only adopted them, but also chose the best husband in the world for her.


    Li Shimin''s face is heavy. In this way, he has a lot of experience. Naturally, he knows that this situation is not only there, but also very common.

 Chapter 461

    Arranged marriage is like "buying a cat through a cloth bag". If the parties do not meet, it all depends on luck.


    I''m lucky to meet a reliable matchmaker. I''m looking for a worthy match and spend my life. If I meet a matchmaker who only recognizes money, I''m afraid I''ll regret it all my life. Black and white are reversed, and the top deceives the bottom. This kind of thing is very common in the secular world.


    "Love begins with love and ends with ceremony. This is Kong Sheng''s proposal. Nowadays, secular marriage has never met before marriage. How can true love come from courtesy first and then love? How many marriages in the world are like empty shells, like walking corpses. How can parents in the world bear to let their children fall into endless pain." Merton cried in pain.


    The reason why sincere love stories will be widely spread once they appear in ancient times is that they are too rare to be particularly precious.


    Anyone with a clear eye can see that Merton''s remark is just an excuse for his commitment under the moon, but a bloody fact makes people unable to argue. Merton''s article directly reveals the beauty shrouded in secular marriage and reveals the most cruel part. All those who read it are silent.


    However, this is not Merton''s purpose. What really makes everyone uneasy is the fifth marriage summarized by Merton - buying and selling marriage.


    "When you marry a daughter in a top-grade family, you pay attention to family background, talent and character. When you marry a daughter in a bottom-grade family, you can''t ask for money. Greedy parents decide their son-in-law with bride price, just like buying things in the market." Merton''s words are extremely sharp, which makes people lose face in his heart.


    In the feudal era, the idea of son preference was particularly serious. Many families thought it was not cost-effective to have a daughter, and even despised it as losing money.


    Under this idea, when many families marry a daughter, they often take the financial size as the basis. Whichever family gives a high bride price, they will marry their daughter to which family, just like buying and selling goods.


    "On potential husband ¡¤ breaking the lawsuit" mentioned that in the Han Dynasty, in order to be greedy for money, some women even "had several families" with their daughters, which finally caused trouble in the government and became a joke at that time.


    However, this trend did not stop. In the Tang Dynasty, it became more and more intense. Not only did a woman have a lot of things, but the man took the initiative to increase his weight in order to compete for marriage. Even the greedy parents sold cardamom girls to the old man for money. In those days, the Mohist village was repeatedly humiliated. Even the agreed marriage was because of color How many marriages have been missed due to insufficient gifts.


    "This money is the money of sin, which is based on the pain, blood and tears of children." Merton''s words made everyone cold. How can you feel at ease even if you take this money to buy your daughter.


    "Sixth, parents interfere in marriage, peacocks fly southeast and wander for five miles..."


    Peacock Flying Southeast is a Yuefu poem familiar to scholars. It is based on the love story between Jiao Zhongqing and his wife Liu Lanzhi. It is actually a tragedy of parents'' interference in marriage.


    In this age of parents'' orders, parents'' opinions on marriage can be said to be decided in one word. I don''t know how many human tragedies have been caused.


    "Red and crisp hands, yellow Teng wine. The city is full of spring. The palace walls are full of willows. The east wind is evil, and the joy is thin. With a melancholy mood, it has been gone for several years. Wrong.


    Spring is like old, people are empty and thin. Tears are red, mackerel gauze is transparent. Peach blossoms fall, leisure pool Pavilion. Although the mountain alliance is there, the brocade book is difficult to trust. Mo mo. "


    People with the same fate as Jiao Zhongqing in history may have to mention a poet, Lu you. Lu You also repaired his wife Tang Wan because of his mother''s interference, so that he regretted it all his life.


    In later generations, Tang Wan and Lu You were close relatives. Now the Mohist school has already made it clear that the harm of marriage between close relatives is obvious. Therefore, even if the historical track remains unchanged, they can not be married. Today, Merton wrote hairpin head Phoenix. Red crisp hand under the guise of Jiao Zhongqing''s story, which can not let the word sink.


    "The second word?"


    In Chongwen hall, Li Chengqian looked at the hairpin Phoenix in Ink magazine and sighed.


    Everyone thought that although the "jade case. New Year''s Eve" was good, it was a flash in the pan, but they didn''t expect that only a few days later, Merton even made the same popular word.


    "Brother Mo is really a great talent with ancient poems as new words."


    What makes Li Chengqian sigh is that Merton''s poem is the second creation in Peacock Flying Southeast.


    The position of Peacock Flying Southeast in literature needless to say, ordinary people dare not continue to be a dog''s tail and a mink, but Merton''s hairpin Phoenix is very consistent with Peacock Flying Southeast.


    "No, there''s a third word." Li Tai shook his head.


    Merton then wrote the same hairpin Phoenix in the tone of Liu Lanzhi.


    "The world is thin, the human relationship is evil, and the rain sends the evening flowers. The morning wind is dry, and the tears are residual. If you want to write your mind, lean on the inclined column alone. Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!


    People become different. This is not yesterday. The sick soul is often like a swing rope. The sound of the horn is cold, the night is waning, afraid of being asked, swallowing tears and pretending to be happy. Hide! Hide! Hide! "


    When Li Tai saw the second hairpin Phoenix, he was speechless for a long time. The two words complement each other and tell a love tragedy from the perspective of men and women, which makes people sigh with regret.


    What caused such a love tragedy is naturally self-evident. Naturally, it is an arranged marriage.


    Li Tai and Li Chengqian can''t help looking at each other. For the young generation, they are naturally full of longing for their love. However, if they really do, as Merton said, they don''t see it before marriage and wantonly interfere, they suddenly shudder.


    At the moment, a hundred of them agreed with Merton''s point of view, but they suddenly gave a cold hum when they thought that Merton abandoned Changle and argued for the woman who had not appeared so far.


    "The Mohist School believes that marriage is a sacred thing, which is related to the fate of men and women all their lives. How can others dominate it? Dunton believes that although the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are essential, both men and women are the final decision-making power. Therefore, the orders of parents, the words of matchmakers and the willingness of both sides are the great goodness of human relations."


    Of course, Merton did not dare to call for the concept of free love in future generations. I''m afraid once it was put forward, it would add to the snake. On the basis of his parents'' orders and the words of a matchmaker, Merton opened a small hole for both men and women to decide, which is a great progress.


    "Parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words are voluntary."


    After reading this, countless people can''t help but brighten their eyes. If secular marriage can be so, it will not only take into account the secular etiquette, but also solve the disadvantages of arranged marriage, which makes people applaud the case.


    "Is it good for Mohist scholars to say so?"


    All the people in front of the ink magazine nodded and praised. Let''s ask, who doesn''t want to have a happy marriage in the world? If you can decide to choose a person you love to grow old together, it will be the wish of your life.


    However, how can we make both men and women voluntarily meet and communicate before marriage? In this way, Quan Wanji''s criticism of Merton''s private meeting women is naturally self defeating.

 Chapter 462

    Yonghefang Zhoujia,


    Mr. Zhou looked at the ink magazine in his hand and looked embarrassed. Next to him, Mrs. Zhou was lowering her head and weeping.


    "I don''t blame you for crying. If you hadn''t insisted on a baby kiss at the beginning, how could it be today." master Zhou angrily scolded.


    Mrs. Zhou immediately sobbed and said, "it was a good thing that the two families of Zhou and Yan had a good relationship at the beginning. The Yan family is really too disappointing."


    The daughter of the Zhou family is a well-known lady. Today, she came to the second old man with an ink journal and asked for the lifting of the child marriage of the Tongyan family.


    Although the Yan family is not weak, their son is ignorant, lazy, proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and has a very bad reputation. Let alone the daughter of the Yan family is unwilling, even they have long regretted it.


    However, the two families have already ordered the marriage certificate. Let alone take the initiative to repent, it has a bad reputation. If the Yan family takes the marriage certificate and sues, the Zhou family will undoubtedly lose.


    "Otherwise, sir, you''ll go to Yan''s house and take this opportunity to make it clear." Mrs. Zhou said with a trace of hope in her eyes. If she married her daughter in this way, her daughter''s voice would be destroyed.


    Master Zhou bit his teeth, got up ruthlessly and said, "well, I won''t let my daughter suffer this great crime even if I give up this layer of cheek."


    Master Zhou found out the marriage certificate and was about to go out. He just saw master Yan holding the marriage certificate and knocking at the door.


    "Brother Yan, this is!" master Zhou''s heart clicked, and an ominous premonition rushed to his heart.


    Master Yan stopped and said, "thanks to brother Zhou''s love, our two families have made a baby marriage since childhood. At that time, you and I agreed that it would be a good story in Chang''an City if a man became a brother of the opposite sex and a woman became a husband and wife in the future to continue the friendship between Zhou and Yan."


    The Zhou family and his wife secretly complained. If master Yan really forced a marriage proposal, they might really be in a dilemma.


    "However, the dog really doesn''t work hard. Delaying it will only delay your love''s life. As Mohist Tzu said, baby kiss seems beautiful, but it is actually a manifestation of selfishness between you and me, ignoring the happiness of your children." master Yan sighed.


    He didn''t know that the daughter of the Zhou family was excellent and a first-class good woman. If the two families hadn''t made a baby marriage long ago, the media would certainly break the threshold. If his son was more competitive, even if the daughter of the Zhou family didn''t want to, he would certainly try his best. How could the Yan Family''s mud not help up the wall? Coupled with the publication of Merton Ink magazine, he immediately realized. Persistence will only add laughingstock.


    "What does brother Yan mean?" the Zhou family hoped.


    "Since the two are not suitable, the engagement between Zhou Yan and his family will be dissolved. What do you think of brother Zhou?" master Yan ruthlessly handed over the marriage letter in his hand.


    The Zhou family was relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.


    "Thank you, brother Yan, for understanding the great cause." master Zhou bowed his hands gratefully.


    Master Yan also put down a stone in his heart and said, "there are only children and grandchildren. Maybe baby kiss is just a beautiful mistake!"


    Master Zhou solemnly said, "although you and I have not become in laws, the friendship between Zhou Yan and his family will never change."


    Soon, the news of Zhou Yan''s family lifting the baby marriage spread quickly in Chang''an city.


    Many people smacked their tongues one after another. No one thought that Merton''s article had such great power.


    However, it was not an exception for Zhou Yan and his family to terminate their marriage. Within one day, at least five children in Chang''an City dissolved their marriage.


    In addition to child relatives, there is also gratifying news about the problem of child brides. Although Chang''an city is an imperial capital with rich businessmen everywhere, there are more poor people, and there are many child brides.


    Quchi square, Zhangjia.


    Under the testimony of all the parents, Zhang Tiezhu and his 12-year-old daughter-in-law knelt side by side on the ground and solemnly kowtowed to the elderly parents in front of them.


    "Heaven is up and down. Zhang Tiezhu and Liu Xiaoniu officially became brothers and sisters of the opposite sex, and have been a family since then."


    They kowtowed to their elderly parents.


    "Good!" the people around immediately shouted.


    On the chair in front of him, the old mother cried, "iron pillar, you can''t marry a daughter-in-law in the future. Don''t regret it."


    Zhang Tiezhu stood up and said proudly, "don''t worry, mother. The child will never regret it. The child and the chick''s sister have always had the feelings of brother and sister. They have no other heart."


    "Good boy, why don''t a big husband have no wife? If you are poor, you can work in our Mojia village and I''ll guarantee you 500 Wen a month." a Mojia boy in charge of collecting information came and shouted at the news.


    "Is that true?" Zhang''s mother couldn''t believe it. Five hundred Wen a month, even in Chang''an City, is also the top salary, not to mention the excellent conditions such as medical treatment in Mojia village. It''s naturally no problem to marry a daughter-in-law.


    The Mohist child had already been instructed by Merton. He happened to encounter a benchmarking example. How can he miss it? He patted his chest and promised.


    As night fell, the red lights of the major brothels in pingkang square hung high, and a sad voice came from almost every brothel.


    "Red crisp hand, yellow rattan wine..."


    Hairpin Phoenix is just an ink magazine. It has just been released during the day. When night falls, there are poems and songs in major brothels in Chang''an city. Everyone writes them for singers to sing.


    When the brothel singer sings about her deep feelings and reminds her of her bitter life experience, she can''t help crying from her heart, and the audience sighs at it.


    Since ancient times, only tragedy can arouse the hearts of the people. Merton wrote two hairpin Phoenix songs, which can be described as extremely sad and hit the hearts of the people.


    Poetry expresses ambition and words express emotion.


    People are keenly aware that, compared with poetry, the words created by Merton seem to be more in line with the rhythm. The voice is gentle and beautiful, with far-reaching implications. Using words to write love is progressive and empathetic.


    For a while, with the sad melody, the atmosphere that had been unfavorable to Merton was swept away, and more and more people openly agreed with Merton.


    In particular, the younger generation has always regarded Merton as their idol. In addition, Merton has expressed their aspirations, set an example and actively pursue love, which makes them yearn for it.


    Even ordinary people, for the sake of their children''s happiness, do not resent Merton''s proposal. Only a few stubborn people still gnash their teeth at Merton and think that Merton is undermining secular etiquette. For a long time, they will surely collapse morality and lose ethics.


    Quan Fu Zhong.


    Quan Wanji sat there with a gloomy face. Beside him, the lights were dim and unclear, and the light on Quan Wanji''s face was bright and dark.


    "It''s better to demolish ten temples than one marriage. The Mohist School''s fallacies, rebellious scriptures and Taoism are extremely crazy." Quan Wanji said angrily.


    In his many years of imperial career, he has always written to others to participate in others. The other party either bowed his head and pleaded guilty or gritted his teeth. No one has ever publicly challenged his authority. After he was impeached, since he openly fought against him.


    "The matter of Mohist school is never over!" Quan Wanji said angrily.


    The Quan house housekeeper said carefully, "but master, the mojiazi occupy the convenience of the ink magazine. Everyone knows that the wind direction of the whole Chang''an City has been biased towards the mojiazi."


    "It''s just some fools who are bewitched by the Mohist school. Although I''m modest, there are people who share the same interests with me. By the way, can I reply to the letter I asked you to send?" Quan Wanji asked.


    Quan mansion housekeeper frowned and said, "reply to the master. Most of them have replied and have rejected the master''s proposal."


    Quan Wanji underestimated the power of Ink magazine. Once Merton Ink magazine was published, plus the bonus of two hairpin Phoenix, it can be said that it was a hot discussion in the whole city. Seeing that the momentum was wrong, how could it comply with Quan Wanji''s proposal to deal with Mozi.


    "It''s just stupid. The king is the subject, the husband is the wife, and the father is the son. The three cardinal principles and five constant principles are the foundation of our Confucian ethics. If we allow the Mohists to slander indiscriminately, our Confucian ethics will be destroyed." Quan Wanji was furious.


    The foundation of arranged marriage is based on the three cardinal principles and five permanent principles. Although Merton attacked the system of arranged marriage, what actually shook was the authority of his father and husband.


    Quan Wanji did not know the disadvantages of arranged marriage. The most fundamental reason why he stubbornly attacked Merton was to safeguard the interests of Confucianism.


    "Since you don''t participate in the great court meeting tomorrow, let me not hesitate to do so, nor let Mohist Zi succeed." Quan Wanji immediately wrote quickly and stayed awake all night. Compared with Mohist Zi''s article, he began to refute word by word.

 Chapter 463

    Early in the morning, on the street of Chang''an City, a huge welcoming team came face to face.


    "Tick tock!"


    Six wedding musicians played a festive tune, and the flower sedan chair carried by eight people had an abnormal style. It was surrounded by brocade bells. With the steps of the sedan bearer, they sent out sweet bells all the way, and even passers-by could feel the festive atmosphere.


    "Matchmaker Zhu, what kind of marriage is this? It''s so imposing!" a fat matchmaker with heavy makeup and flirting in front of the wedding procession. People on the street have acquaintances, and asked aloud.


    Matchmaker Zhu is a famous matchmaker in Chang''an City, but her reputation is not good. She specializes in matchmaking for some rich families and only recognizes money.


    "Who else can it be? Of course it''s master Hu''s house in Dongcheng!" said matchmaker Zhu enchanting.


    "Mr. Hu? Mr. Hu is already seventy, and can we get married?" passers-by laughed.


    "Of course, it''s not master Hu, but master Hu''s youngest son." matchmaker Zhu pretended, covered her mouth and smiled.


    The passer-by was surprised and said, "isn''t that a fool? I heard that he got sick and hit everyone! Even doctor sun can''t cure him."


    "Well, which daughter is willing to marry a fool? Doesn''t it push her into the fire?" a middle-aged woman exclaimed.


    The matchmaker Zhu snorted coldly, "what''s the matter? The Hu family has a great career. How can you enjoy happiness when you marry the Hu family?"


    "Your family has a daughter. Why don''t you want to marry the Hu family?" the middle-aged woman snorted coldly.


    Matchmaker Zhu''s face suddenly froze, bowed her head to hide her face, and hurriedly greeted the wedding procession to leave.


    "I''m afraid this is another arranged marriage!" passers-by sighed one after another.


    Yesterday''s Ink magazine spread in Chang''an City, and people talked about it one after another. However, like Zhou Yan and Zhang Liu, they are a few after all. How can more people repent because of Merton''s words.


    There is no airtight wall in the world. The welcoming team didn''t go long before news came.


    In order to repay the gambling debt, Han laitou in the west of the city betrothed his daughter to the Hu family with a bride price of 50 Liang silver. It took only six days from receiving the lottery to welcoming the wedding. It can be said that it is a standard arranged marriage.


    Speaking of Han laitou, who is also a legend, the Han family was originally a big family. Just because Han laitou was a bad gambler, he lost all his family property. Then he didn''t repent, but made it worse. In his early years, he even sold his wife into a brothel in order to pay off gambling debts. Now he does it again. For money, he sold his daughter to the fool of the Hu family as his wife.


    "People like Han laitou are really not things. They should go to hell and be cut by thousands of knives." many people immediately gnashed their teeth when they heard the speech.


    Chang''an city is the imperial capital. As long as you are willing to work hard here, there is no reason why you can''t live. Instead, you have to say that Han Lai is a bad gambler.


    When the wedding procession came to Hu''s house with gongs and drums, the Hu family, dressed in happy clothes, greeted at the door with a smirk on their face.


    In fact, according to the rules, the groom should go to the women''s house to greet the wedding in person. However, the Hu family is too stupid to help the horse at all, so they only greet the wedding at the door of the house. For this reason, Han laitou asked for five Liang more silver.


    "The auspicious hour has arrived, and please get the bride off the sedan!" cried the matchmaker Zhu.


    However, matchmaker Zhu shouted three times, but there was no movement in the sedan. Suddenly, matchmaker Zhu had a bad feeling in her heart and hurried forward to open the sedan.


    In the sedan chair, the Hu family daughter was already spread out in the sedan chair, cold all over.


    "Dead!"


    In horror, matchmaker Zhu screamed loudly.


    The guests of the Hu family immediately dispersed in a crowd. A great joy turned into a funeral. People who had good deeds for a long time soon informed the Mo hospital and the Yamen of Chang''an city.


    Soon, the medical car of MOH hospital and Constable Cao arrived almost at the same time.


    A doctor got out of the car, touched his pulse, shook his head and sighed, "the heartbeat has stopped. It''s hopeless."


    Constable Cao frowned and said, "doctor, but find out the cause of death of the Korean woman."


    "Take poison and kill yourself!" the doctor looked at the happy sedan chair and happy service, immediately understood the reason, and looked at matchmaker Zhu with disgust.


    "It''s none of my business. I''m just going to matchmaker." matchmaker Zhu said shakily.


    Master Hu had already been waiting nearby. Now that the bride died and the marriage became a funeral, he looked at his spare time and hurriedly came up to Cao Li and said: "Lord Cao, the Hu family is not responsible for this. My Hu family really wants to marry the Han family daughter, but it happened so frustrated before I entered the door. My Hu family is still the victim! Lord Cao wants to be the master of my Hu family!"


    Cao Li looked at master Hu with disgust. If your fool didn''t want to get married, how could this happen.


    "Let''s wait until the Han family comes." Cao Li said angrily.


    Cao Li sighed and ordered a Yamen to say, "go to the Han family and find Han Lai''s head for me. If you can''t find it, go to the gambling house."


    One of his yamen servants immediately took the order. Han laitou was a famous gambler in Chang''an city. A group of Yamen servants knew him very well.


    Cao lidon had a terrible headache when he saw the bride''s body in the red sedan chair. If it had been easy to deal with before, but now the ink magazine has just come out, there is a heated discussion about buying and selling marriage in the city, and the Hu family openly bought and sold marriage without any concern.


    Now there are human lives. If one of them is not handled well, I''m afraid it will be scolded by the people in the whole city. Even Cao Li dare not make claims without authorization.


    Master Hu wanted to say something more. Unfortunately, Constable Cao didn''t answer at all, so he had to be bored again.


    "I want a daughter-in-law, I want a daughter-in-law!" beside master Hu, the silly son of the Hu family kept shouting with master Hu in his arms, which made people feel cold.


    Soon, a yamen servant came with Han Lai''s head.


    "Constable, I''ll find this man in Qingcai gambling shop. The money for selling marriage is almost lost." the Yamen said angrily.


    When Cao caught the first meal, his heart was filled with sadness. He forced his daughter to marry a fool and gambled with the money he sold his daughter. How hateful is his father.


    "Surnamed Hu, I gave my daughter to your Hu family, but you were forced to death by your Hu family. How do you want to compensate!" Han Lai saw his daughter''s body and howled a few times, so he wanted the Hu family to lose money.


    "Compensation, your daughter hasn''t crossed the door of our Hu family. How can we be forced to die? You still want the Hu family to compensate, and the Hu family wants to sue you for cheating on the bride price?" master Hu shouted angrily.


    Regardless of the body of the Han woman lying on the street, one insisted that he had married the Hu family and was forced to death by the Hu family. The other thought that he had not passed the door of the Hu family, the wedding had not been completed and the engagement was invalid. They were unwilling to let him bring back the body of the Han woman.


    "People are dead, and you are still here to shirk your responsibility and only talk about money!" Cao Li angrily scolded.


    "This is not our fault!" master Hu, Han Lai and matchmaker Zhu shouted one by one.


    Cao Li was immediately embarrassed. According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, he really had nothing to do with the three people.


    "Since you have no place to complain, let Mo preside over justice for you!" the crowd suddenly separated, and Merton came out more and more.


    "Mojiazi!"


    In the crowd, there was a sudden exclamation.


    The three of master Hu immediately seemed to see the Savior. They all pointed to Merton and said, "it''s all the fault of the Mohists."


    "My daughter loves face most. If it weren''t for your article, how could my daughter commit suicide. You return my daughter!" Han Lai saw Merton and rushed at Merton with a cry. Compared with the MOH family, the Hu family only had a few money. If the MOH family compensated, wouldn''t it be able to lose more money.


    Cao Li waved his big hand and several yamen guards immediately controlled Han Lai''s head.


    "Lord Mo, please stay away!" Cao Li said anxiously.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Constable Cao, please take the three people back to the Yamen for the time being, restrain the Korean daughter for the time being, and wait for Mo to personally sound the Wen Deng drum and preside over justice for her Korean daughter."


    "Smell the drum?" Cao Li was surprised.


    The imperial court''s drum can be sounded by people with great grievances and can be heard directly to heaven. However, once the drum is sounded, there will be no turning back. No one thought that Merton would do such an amazing thing for a woman he never knew.

 Chapter 464

    Da Chao Hui.


    "It''s better to dismantle ten temples than one marriage. From the exposure of close relatives in ink magazines to marriage, to today''s baby relatives and child brides, you can think about how many marriages have been destroyed in the hands of the Mohists."


    In the court, Quan Wanji accused Merton of breaking up his marriage one by one.


    Quan Wanji''s letter was immediately approved by many ministers. Everyone believed that marriage was destiny, which was a universal concept. Although there were various disadvantages in marriage, the world believed that there were gods in temples, but they would rather dismantle it than destroy a marriage. It can be seen that the world was cautious about marriage.


    The ministers couldn''t help thinking about it for a while, because the one or two words of Mohist Zi invalidated so many marriages in the world. They couldn''t help sighing again and again. No matter what the purpose of Mohist Zi was, it can''t be denied that many men and women who should have been married changed their marriage because of Mohist Zi''s words.


    Even Li Shimin was speechless for a while. The Mohist family is really a catfish. They can toss around wherever they are. When they reach the age of marriage, they have caused such a big storm, which makes the people of the Tang Dynasty uneasy.


    "Censor Quan, I think you are mistaken. What you said about breaking up marriage is just a paper engagement, not breaking up other people''s marriage and family." Qin Qiong snorted coldly.


    "Since the engagement has been made and the marriage has been signed, there is naturally no intention of going back. If the Mohist family did not interfere with the marriage, it would be a loss of conscience. Let''s ask, because thousands of marriage engagements under the Mohist family were destroyed," Quan Wanji said sternly.


    "Thousands of marriage engagements have been broken." the minister in the court could not help but smack his tongue. If you put such crazy things on ordinary people, I''m afraid you should think twice.


    A year ago, the Mohist family exposed the harm of close relative marriage. Although it borrowed the reputation of a doctor, it was not a secret to chaotang. Everyone knew that it was the Mohist family. However, in less than a year, the Mohist family even had to dismantle a batch, which was addictive.


    Qin Qiong explained: "since the two sides are not married and the marriage contract is dissolved, we can renew the good marriage. What''s wrong with this? Moreover, these marriages are evil. I think breaking up such a marriage is not only meritorious, but also meritorious."


    "If the Mohist family is selfless, I have nothing to say. However, the Mohist family is nothing more than defending their marriage for their own personal interests, which makes me have to doubt the character and motivation of the Mohist family." Quan Wanji pointed out.


    Qin Qiong was about to argue, but a drum came from outside the palace.


    "Smell the drum!"


    The ministers were surprised! As important officials in the court, they naturally know the significance of hearing denggu.


    "Who is playing the drum?" Li Shimin said with a frozen face.


    "Tell your majesty that Lord Mo is playing the drum?" soon a bodyguard came to report.


    "Mojiazi!" all the officials were stunned. How solemn it was to hear the denggu. Didn''t mojiazi know the meaning of it, didn''t he write to the imperial court, and went so recklessly to knock the denggu.


    "Somebody, bring Merton to me. I want to see how much injustice he has." Li Shimin said angrily. He was worried that he couldn''t find Merton, but he didn''t expect that he would send it to the door himself.


    Quan Wanji suddenly showed a trace of excitement on his face. This time, he wanted to confront Mo Jiazi face-to-face and personally throw his refutation to the ground.


    "See you, Emperor!" soon, Merton came to the Tai Chi hall and bowed down to Li Dao.


    Seeing Merton, Li Shimin thought that he and Princess Changle had private letters under his eyes, but he was helpless. He couldn''t help but get angry and said curiously, "you have any great grievances. Tell me quickly."


    Merton shook his head and said, "Wei Chen has not been wronged."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole court was in an uproar. Hearing that denggu is the greatest prestige of the court, it must be a great injustice. It has not been sounded several times since its establishment


    "Minister Wei wants to impeach Lord mo..." Quan wanjiton said excitedly, and all the royal princes immediately rubbed their hands and prepared to beat the water dog.


    However, Li Shimin waved his hand, stopped his face and said, "do you know what a felony it is to ring the Wendeng drum without authorization?"


    Merton nodded and said solemnly, "although Weichen has no grievances, the Korean woman has great grievances. Weichen is knocked by him."


    "Han''s daughter?" the people suddenly looked at Merton strangely.


    "Han''s daughter is the woman on the night of the Lantern Festival?" Qin Qiong asked involuntarily.


    All the courtiers suddenly pricked up their ears. Only Li Shimin knew the truth.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, I don''t know Han''s daughter. Today is the first time I''ve heard of Han''s daughter."


    "What''s wrong with the Han women? Why don''t you sue the officials in person, but you will replace them." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.


    Merton immediately said sadly, "it should start with the bloody wedding in Chang''an City this morning..."


    "Bloody wedding!" when Quan Wanji heard the name, he suddenly felt a bad feeling.


    With Merton''s low voice, the tragic fate of a cardamom girl with a sad life emerged in his heart.


    When I heard that the Hu family killed herself in the sedan chair, even the courtiers were hard hearted, but I couldn''t help but feel a pain in my heart.


    "Now Han Fu, Hu family and matchmaker Zhu all think it''s not their fault. Now the Hu family''s daughter is still dead in the street. Let''s stop by Chang''an County Government for the moment. Weichen''s move is not to smell the denggu for the Han family''s daughter alone, but to ask your majesty to preside over justice for the women like the Han family''s daughter in the world. Whose fault is this?" Merton said proudly.


    Merton''s low words echoed in the Tai Chi hall like thunder, and all the courtiers were immediately silent.


    The fragrant soul of a cardamom girl drifted away. Legally, none of the three who forced the woman was guilty. Moreover, such behavior is not uncommon in the whole Tang Dynasty, but none of them, like mojiazi, sounded the Wen Deng drum for it.


    "This is my fault!" Li Shimin suddenly shouted.


    "Your Majesty, don''t?" the ministers were shocked and hurriedly exhorted.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "all the people in the world are my people. It''s my responsibility for the Korean woman to die unjustly. I didn''t do my duty to protect him."


    It is true that there are various factors in the tragedy of the Han family woman, but more importantly, she has no choice but to fight with death in the face of her marriage, which is the responsibility of the Social Court.


    "Your Majesty, this is a difficult problem in all dynasties, and the imperial court has repeatedly banned it!" all the ministers urged.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath: "there are all dynasties. If we don''t solve it one day, there will be countless tragedies similar to Korean women in the future. Since I have known it, how can I make mistakes again and again."


    There was a moment of silence in chaotangdun. Obviously, from their eyes, they naturally know that the current marriage contract system in Datang is indeed unreasonable.


    However, the root cause of arranged marriage is the three cardinal principles and five permanent principles of Confucianism. Arranged marriage is just an extension of the principle of husband as wife and father as son. If it is changed rashly, I am afraid it will shake the foundation of Confucianism. This is what courtiers worry about.

 Chapter 465

    Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "marriage is not a small matter, but related to the stability of the country. When you go down to the ordinary people and the backyard of the Imperial Palace, all you want is to prosper the family and everything, cultivate your self-cultivation, govern the country and stabilize the world. If you don''t have peace of mind, how can you serve the country? Today, the matter of the Hu family''s daughter reminds me. Since there are many marriage problems in the world, how can I sit idly by."


    "Your Majesty is holy!" the ministers said respectfully.


    Even Quan Wanji has nothing to say. Even the most stubborn people want harmony in their family, kindness and filial piety.


    Li Shimin looked around for a week, looked at Merton and said angrily, "Merton, since this happened because of you, let''s talk about the defects of my marriage in Datang?"


    Merton didn''t know that he had revealed his secret. He said with full confidence: "first, getting married with close relatives, second, getting married early, third, getting married with children, fourth, child brides, fifth, arranging the sale of marriage, and finally parents interfering in the marriage."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the hearts of the ministers were heavy. Who could have thought that so many problems were hidden under the tradition of parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words.


    Li Shimin trembled in his hand and said, "let''s have a discussion. If you have any problems, you can confront Merton face to face. Today, we will solve all the problems one by one and return a good marriage between men and women in the world."


    All the ministers looked around without words,


    Eldest sun Wuji gnawed his teeth and said, "back to the emperor, Weichen believes that close relative marriage is very harmful. According to Weichen''s investigation, many close relative married couples have children with disabilities, fools, many diseases and premature deaths, which are very harmful. Please also order to announce it to the world and prohibit it."


    The marriage between Chang sun Chong and Princess Changle has been dissolved for nearly a year. Now it''s all right to mention it, and it''s most appropriate for him to take the initiative to mention it.


    In fact, for Merton''s close relative marriage, the eldest sun Wuji''s heart resented that Merton had let the eldest sun''s family lose the opportunity of a century of wealth, but there was no trace of happiness. The eldest sun''s family has become a behemoth now. If the future eldest sun''s family is run by a fool, I''m afraid that would be the future of cutting off the eldest sun''s family.


    Li Shimin looked at Chang sun Wuji with satisfaction. Although the close relative marriage involved Chang sun Chong and Princess Changle, it could not be delayed indefinitely. Although the ink magazine has spread the harm of close relative marriage among the people, the effect is not obvious. There are still a lot of people getting married among the people.


    "In that case, when revising the law of Zhenguan, the eldest sun Aiqing added this prohibition, and all relatives within five generations of the direct line and three generations of the collateral line can''t get married." Li Shimin nodded.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei!" the elder sun Wuji sighed with relief, and then stepped down.


    "I have some doubts about early marriage," said Quan Wanji as soon as his eldest son Wuji stepped down.


    "Quan Aiqing, please say," said Li Shimin.


    Quan Wanji nodded and said, "Your Majesty, the law stipulates that men and women can get married after 15. However, doctors believe that men and women can get married only after their physical development is completed. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate."


    "How old is it when the development is completed?" Li Shimin frowned, turned to Merton and asked:


    Merton said, "eighteen years old."


    Li Shimin felt a little relieved immediately. However, before he relaxed, he heard Merton continue: "it''s not an empty year, but one year old."


    "One year old?" the ministers wondered.


    Merton explained: "At present, the calculation age of Datang is a virtual age. Birth is one year old. Every Spring Festival increases one year. Doctors believe that this calculation age is extremely inappropriate. If one baby is born on New Year''s Eve and another baby is born on Spring Festival, there is a difference of one day between them, but there is a difference of one year in calculation. If it is the same year, one year, one year''s end, but one staggers and one year''s end But still in swaddling clothes. "


    Merton explained clearly, and the ministers nodded again and again.


    "Doctors calculate the age from the date of birth to the birthday a year later, which is the virtual age stipulated by my dynasty. When I get married at the age of 15, it seems to doctors that I am only 13." Merton said bitterly.


    "Thirteen years old!" Li Shimin was stunned. He had married when he was thirteen years old. No wonder the doctors reacted so much.


    "I object!" Quan Wanji shouted.


    "Since the end of the Sui Dynasty, the population of our Dynasty has withered, the land is deserted, the supreme emperor and his majesty have rested, and the population has gradually recovered. However, it is still not as good as the previous dynasty. If a woman marries at the age of 18, the population growth of our Tang Dynasty will be greatly reduced, and there will be insufficient Ding men at that time, which will endanger the foundation of the imperial court!" Quan Wanji exclaimed that at the age of 18, it would not be a virtual 20. In the current situation of Datang, he is already the mother of several children.


    At this time, the population is the labor force, which can create wealth, taxes and troops. In order to increase the population, rulers often encourage early marriage. Quan Wanji''s remark was immediately approved by many ministers.


    Merton retorted: "Early marriage is very harmful. According to the statistics of doctors, there are countless cases of early marriage women having difficulty giving birth and one body and two lives. In this way, instead of increasing the population, it is counterproductive. As for the population growth, and with the prosperity of doctors, the infant mortality will be greatly reduced in the future, and the child survival rate will increase greatly. At that time, your majesty may have to consider how to settle so many newborn people."


    What''s the use of having more students? It''s right to survive. As a master of gynecology and pediatrics, Sun Simiao has begun to write medical books on gynecology and obstetrics and began to teach female doctors in the women''s Medical College. Once this group of women''s medicine is completed, the survival rate of infants and young children in Datang will increase greatly. At that time, the whole Datang will usher in a population peak.


    "Suppose a woman gets married at the age of 18, has five children in her life, can have five generations in a hundred years, and has nearly 100 people living together for four generations."


    The Ministry of civil affairs, wearing a bow, nodded, and the Ministry of public affairs registered residence statistics in the world. In some wealthy families, the population of four generations lived together had hundreds of people.


    "By analogy, the population of the whole Datang will double every 20 to 40 years. At present, the population of our Datang will be 3.8 million, 20 million, 40 million in 20 years, and hundreds of millions in 100 years. Mr. Wei, your majesty, is our Datang ready to feed hundreds of millions of people in 100 years?" Merton''s voice is sonorous, It shook the imperial court like thunder.


    "Hundreds of millions of people?" Manchu officials looked at Merton strangely


    Li Shimin was shocked and immediately turned his eyes to Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of the people.


    Dai Zhou quickly leaned over and counted on the Chaohu. The more he counted, the more frightened he was. After a while, he was sweating. After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said, "if the doctors can ensure the survival rate of newborns, in a hundred years, my Chaohu population may be hundreds of millions."


    The Manchu minister took a breath. Before that, they were worried that delaying the marriage age of women would be detrimental to population growth. At this moment, this worry has long disappeared.


    The population of the Tang Dynasty soared, but the land growth could not catch up. If there were more people and less land, and the land output could not feed so many people, I''m afraid that the people would have no livelihood at that time, and the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty would certainly repeat itself in the Tang Dynasty.


    Merton nodded secretly, but he knew how serious the population growth rate was. In the later period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the population had reached more than 80 million. If there were the promotion of doctors, it would not be impossible for the population of the Tang Dynasty to exceed 100 million.

 Chapter 466

    "The Mohist school is nothing but alarmist. Now doctors are just two hospitals in Chang''an and Luoyang. How can we take care of the whole people of the Tang Dynasty?" Quan Wanji attacked by seizing the loophole of Merton.


    Morton shook his head and said, "although there are only two Mohist hospitals now, five years later, it will be able to open all over the ten Daofu of the Tang Dynasty. Ten years later, it will be just around the corner in all counties and even all counties. This day will not be too late."


    The people in the hall were also silent and were persuaded by Merton. After all, Merton listed detailed data to let them see a grim future.


    People thought it was just a homicide. Who could have thought it would become a discussion about the pattern of the Tang Dynasty in the next hundred years.


    Quan Wanji wants to argue, but he has no way to talk about it. With the momentum of Mo hospital, the day Merton said will surely come. At that time, the population of Datang will surely increase explosively.


    "That will be a hundred years later, and at the moment, I really need population in Datang." Quan Wanji had to argue.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "early marriage is very harmful, and our Datang really needs a population at present, not if it is set at the age of 18 for men and 16 for women."


    Li Shimin is not like to let his daughter risk dystocia to have children and achieve a compromise age. Moreover, the population surge will be a hundred years later, and it is not too late to think about it in the future.


    "Your Majesty''s kindness is indeed the blessing of the children in the world!" the ministers complimented.


    Merton nodded. The result is much better than at present. If the population of Datang increases sharply in the future, it may be possible for Datang to set the marriage age at 22 men and 20 women.


    "As for the engagement of baby kiss, child bride and so on, all will be invalid." Li Shimin got up and looked at the ministers.


    Quan Wan Gideon sighed in his heart and immediately knew that he had lost another city.


    However, he had expected this for a long time. After all, in the ink magazine, the harm of doll affinity to child brides has been made very clear. It is indeed too risky to engage in a marriage since childhood.


    Quan Wanji contended: "your majesty! Although baby relatives and child brides are like children''s plays, after all, some baby relatives are also equal and agree with each other. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate if they are all invalid!"


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "then let them wait for their children to grow up and order another marriage certificate. From today on, all marriage certificates will be invalid before both men and women are 14 years old."


    At the age of 14, both men and women have a basic understanding of marriage, so they don''t passively accept fate as they were when they were young. Two years is enough to get engaged at the age of 14 and get married at the age of 16.


    As soon as this strategy was put forward, the marriage contract of Datang would be destroyed countless times, and Merton took the title of marriage demolition expert.


    "Your Majesty is wise, but I have one more thing to propose. Can this marriage letter be signed by both men and women?" Merton said solemnly.


    Quan Wan Gideon said coldly and sarcastically, "I''m afraid Mr. Mo doesn''t know when he''s unmarried. Since it''s a marriage letter, it will naturally write the names of both men and women."


    After Quan Wanji finished, many ministers immediately laughed at his birth and looked at Merton playfully.


    Merton was not angry, but solemnly said, "it is because I am unmarried that I want to find a person who agrees with me to spend my life together. I think men and women all over the world have the same mind as boys. However, men and women don''t see one side and talk about how they agree with each other, especially buying and selling marriage. Children are controlled by their parents and have no choice."


    Li Shimin''s heart softened when he heard the speech, and his eyes looked at Merton gently.


    "What the boy means is that this marriage letter can only come into effect if both men and women sign it voluntarily." Merton suddenly looked up and said with sharp eyes.


    At this moment, he shouted out what they wanted to say but dared not say and had nowhere to say.


    The ministers were suddenly surprised and stared at Merton. Merton finally revisited his proposition of voluntary men and women in Ink magazine. If the betrothed men and women signed the pledge in person, it would be a great challenge to the authority of parents.


    "It''s impossible. There are three cardinal principles and five principles. If parents can''t even manage their children''s marriage, why should they be loyal to you?" Quan Wanji flatly objected.


    The three cardinal principles and five permanent principles are the ethical foundation of Confucianism. Merton''s proposal that men and women sign marriage documents voluntarily before they can take effect is a blatant challenge to the principle that the father is the son.


    "Whether the shoes fit or not, we know that it is us who are married. Should we let two inappropriate people spend their lives together?" Merton said bluntly.


    "Love grows over time. After marriage, when they live together, they will naturally have feelings!" Quan Wanji angrily said.


    "This is the best result. If there is no emotion, it will destroy two people." Merton protested.


    "As a son, if you openly violate the good intentions of your parents, it will be very unfilial!"


    "This filial piety is foolish filial piety. How can we exchange it for a lifetime of happiness."


    One old and one young, they were like a stubborn father and a rebellious son.


    Many people showed their courtiers'' hearts and sighed. Mohist was still very young. I''m afraid this quarrel was centered on Quan Wanji''s plan. If Mohist''s two sides were willing, I''m afraid this situation would appear in thousands of families in the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Shimin constantly struggled in his heart and constantly changed between his father and the emperor. As an emperor, he naturally wanted to maintain the stability of the Tang Dynasty. As a father, he also wanted his children to marry better.


    Obviously, the balance soon shifted towards the identity of the emperor. As an emperor, he naturally focused on the stability of the country.


    Merton took a breath, stared at Quan Wanji and said, "does Quan think Han''s daughter is filial or unfilial?"


    Quan Wan Gideon was as speechless as a duck caught by the neck.


    The Han family''s female corpse lies on the street, and no one converges. It is the victim of the father as the son. It''s obviously impossible for Han''s daughter to marry a fool. Otherwise, she won''t choose such a dead end. If she adheres to the principle of father as son, I''m afraid the examples of Han''s daughter will continue to be staged in the Tang Dynasty in the future.


    Li Shimin''s hard heart collapsed in an instant.


    "Wei Chen''s intention is not to provoke the contradiction between father and son, or for his own personal interests. His purpose is to prohibit things like Han family women in the future. Even if there are things like Han family women in the future, he will not be on the dead end." Merton said sadly.


    All the officials were silent.


    "Yes, it''s a skill for a group of Lords to force a woman to death. If my boy doesn''t want to get married, it''s not a big deal to look for it again." Cheng Yaojin suddenly said carelessly, which immediately broke the deadlock in chaotang.


    Yes! If it''s not appropriate to look for a big deal, why force it? The ministers nodded one after another, and the wind in the middle suddenly deviated towards Merton.


    Although Quan Wanji was angry, the precedent of forcing a woman to die was right in front of him. No matter how much truth he had, it was no more than human life.


    Li Shimin solemnly said: "when signing the marriage certificate in the future, parents, matchmakers and men and women must be present at the same time, and the joint signature and pledge shall prevail. It is also just for men and women to meet openly, so as to save the first meeting in the marriage room. It will be too late to regret at that time."


    Quan Wanji''s face turned black. In this case, it''s not Merton''s idea of parents'' order, matchmaker''s words and mutual voluntariness. He lost this game completely.


    "Thank you for your help." Captain Merton breathed a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to make suggestions: "I think it''s better to sign the marriage letter in the county government. First, it''s convenient for the government to pay attention to it. Second, it''s also convenient for the county government to count the population. Third, if you force people to buy and sell marriage, you can also ask the county master to make decisions in public to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of the Korean women."


    The ministers looked at Merton in surprise. They didn''t expect Merton to come prepared and even think about it.


    "Yes!" Li Shimin pushed the boat along the river.


    Li Shimin''s move is not to support the Mexican family. Since Princess Changle has made a private decision with the Mexican family for life, if she doesn''t support the policy of voluntary meeting before marriage in the imperial court, if something happens in the east window in the future, wouldn''t she beat her face.

 Chapter 467

    Soon, Merton''s problem of secular marriage had been solved, and only the last one was parental interference in marriage.


    Quan Wanji showed a trace of self-confidence. Maybe several other Mohists could find loopholes, but the last one, Quan Wanji had long been prepared and would certainly hit Merton head-on.


    "Lord Mo took the Peacock Flying Southeast as an example and also wrote two words. Chang''an city was singing all over the street. It was earth moving, but I didn''t know that Jiao''s mother did nothing wrong." Quan Wanji said proudly.


    "Nothing wrong?" Merton raised his voice involuntarily and said strangely.


    Now, Chang''an city is lamenting the sad and beautiful love between Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi. In the eyes of Quan Wanji, Jiao''s mother is not wrong.


    "As I said in the Chaohu marriage law, the woman committed" seven crimes ". The husband can divorce his wife, which should be known by Lord Mo!" Quan Wanji said coldly looking at Merton.


    Merton nodded and said, "I naturally know."


    According to the book of rites Ben Ming, "there are seven ways for a woman to go: disobedience to her parents, childlessness, adultery, jealousy, evil diseases, talkativeness and theft. Disobedience to her parents is against her virtue; childlessness is unique; adultery is against her family; jealousy is against her family; evil diseases are against her prosperity; talkativeness is against her parents; theft is against her righteousness."


    This seven go, that is, seven out. If a woman has any of the above, a man can divorce his wife. When Merton studied law in the Imperial College, he naturally remembered it by heart.


    Quan Wanji said, "although Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi died in love, the reason why Jiao''s mother asked Jiao Zhongqing to divorce his wife is that one of the seven children has no children!"


    "When the bride first came, her sister-in-law began to help her bed. Today she was expelled, and her sister-in-law is like me." from her growth, we can see that Lanzhi has been married to the Jiao family for many years. Before Liu Lanzhi was sent home, she said goodbye to her husband, mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but did not say goodbye to her children. It can be seen that the real reason why Liu Lanzhi was divorced is that she had no children for many years.


    In the traditional concept, Liu Lanzhi has been married for many years without children, which is already one of the seven. I''m afraid it is the root cause of the love tragedy between Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi.


    "I don''t know what excuse Lord Mo has!" Quan Wanji pressed step by step.


    Merton snorted coldly: "tell the emperor, Wei minister has no doubt about the other items of the seven, but he has some doubts about the one without children."


    "Speak frankly!" Li Shimin rolled his eyes slightly and knew that Merton began to toss again, but he was very interested in how Merton would refute.


    Merton bowed his hand to Quan Wanji and asked for advice seriously: "I dare to ask you, Lord Quan, whether the divorce without children includes the woman only having daughters, no sons, or the woman will not have children, or both."


    Quan Wanji nodded and said, "nature has both! Mencius said," there are three unfilial ways, and no offspring is great ". He married a wife to inherit the family. If the wife can''t have a son and let the husband''s family die, he can naturally divorce his wife and marry again."


    In the patriarchal family, the purpose of marriage is "to serve the ancestral temple at the top and to inherit future generations"; marriage is to have offspring; according to the pedigree principle of paternal inheritance, only sons can be regarded as the descendants of incense. Therefore, women have to bear the "crime" of "no son". According to the system, they can only marry one wife, so they need to abandon the wife without children and marry a new wife to have children.


    Cao Zhi wrote in the poem of abandoned women: "Angelica sinensis without children is better (retired)... Having children menstruates for days, having no children is like a meteor; the meteor has no essence at the beginning of the day and the moon." it means that childless women are like meteors in their husband''s house for a short time; only wives who have sons can stand in their husband''s house like the sun and the moon. It can be seen that divorcing wives due to childlessness is common in the Han Dynasty.


    In the Tang Dynasty, more attention was paid to the position of "childless" in the "seven out". The law of the Tang Dynasty put "childless" in the first place, which continued until the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Whether in the imperial palace or among the people, it can be said that mothers and children are expensive everywhere.


    Let alone in the Tang Dynasty, even in the 1970s and 1980s, if there were no sons at home, they would also be called the empress. They couldn''t lift their heads in the village. Don''t you see why those super born guerrillas wanted to have more children? No, I''m afraid their purpose was to have one.


    It was not until the 21st century that this idea gradually disappeared with the opening of the concept, but in some backward places, the concept of having a son is still difficult to eradicate.


    Many ministers nodded again and again. No matter how skillful Merton was, he was in vain in front of the "seven out".


    However, Merton did not flinch. Instead, he threw a fist at the ministers and said, "the boy should consult with your ministers."


    Quan Wanji looked at Merton with a sneer. It can be said that his occupation of the great cause is a sure victory. Naturally, he was happy to see Merton jump.


    Merton took out a Kaiyuan Tongbao from his arms, nodded to the crowd and said, "this is a Kaiyuan Tongbao."


    Merton flexed his fingers and made a buzzing sound. Kaiyuan Tongbao rotated and flew into the air. After doing its best, it fell down. Merton slapped it and covered it on the back of his hand.


    "Can you guess whether this Kaiyuan Tongbao is the back or the reverse?" Merton asked around.


    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty were immediately covered with black lines. They stared at Merton one by one, and guessed that the children''s play, such as the front and back, had been brought to the court by the Mohists.


    "Mo family, this is the important place of the court, not your place of mischief." Quan Wanji angrily scolded.


    Li Shimin is also not good at staring at Merton. Merton usually performs well, that is, he always makes some strange things when people don''t care.


    Merton laughed and said, "don''t worry, Lord Quan. If we compare the positive and negative sides of this money to boys and girls? If the positive side represents boys and the negative side represents girls, does Lord Quan still think it''s a children''s play?"


    Quan Wan Gideon was stunned. There are only positive and negative sides of coins, and people are only divided into men and women. It is appropriate to make an analogy in turn.


    Many ministers'' eyes lit up and vaguely guessed Merton''s intention.


    Merton opened his hand and revealed the opposite side of Kaiyuan Tongbao. He regretted: "it seems that it''s a girl this time."


    "What does this mean?" Cheng Yaojin asked curiously.


    "What I want to ask is whether the reverse is because the boy played with his right hand or because the boy took it with his left hand." Merton asked.


    "Er!" Cheng Yaojin thought for a moment and said, "this should be none of them."


    Merton looked at the ministers with a sneer and said, "the solitary Yin is not long, and the only Yang is not born. Childbirth is a common thing between men and women. What about the world''s failure to blame the woman''s belly for giving birth to a daughter but not a son?"


    The important Minister of the Manchu Dynasty immediately took a breath, looked at Merton strangely, played coins and had a child. No one knew gender before birth. However, after giving birth to a boy, the whole family cheered. After giving birth to a girl, they pointed to the woman''s belly.


    "This is the consensus of the world," Quan Wanji argued.


    Merton stepped forward and said, "Lord Quan, I don''t know if there is any basis in the world to prove that giving birth to a boy or a girl is the reason for the mother."


    Quan wanjiton looked pale and staggered back a few steps. All the people in the dynasty were knowledgeable people. How could he make something out of nothing? He had to say bitterly, "there is no evidence in this world."


    Merton continued: "in other words, this is a secular guess. Can the boy guess whether he has boys and girls? It may also be the reason of men or the common reason of both sides."


    The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned and thought deeply. It was not possible, but very possible. They never reflected on the man''s responsibility and blindly accused the woman of being disheartened.


    Merton said passionately, "who has no mother? How cruel it is for a mother to bear the criticism imposed by the world when she is pregnant in October."


    All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were silent.


    "Since it''s not a woman''s fault to have a daughter, why should a woman be dismissed for this seven out crime? Please see if this policy is biased." Merton bowed to Li Shimin.


    Although it has been proved in later generations that the decisive gene for giving birth to men and women is in men, there is no way to achieve this condition at the moment. Merton can only convince people in this way.


    Li Shimin glanced at Merton with satisfaction. Merton''s words are well-organized, and he is interested in women. If he stands above patriarchy, he naturally doesn''t like it. However, as a father, Li Shimin actually has the feeling that seeing his son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye.


    "Merton''s words are reasonable, and this article is indeed biased." Li Shimin coughed. At the moment, he not only stood on the position of his daughter, but also had a huge harem to appease, and his position should naturally be firm.


    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty were silent one by one. Otherwise, when they came home, they would be restless at home. They didn''t see Prime Minister Fang Xuanling standing there without saying a word.


    "It''s natural to have a daughter, but if you have a woman in succession, how can you inherit the incense?" Quan Wanji argued.


    Merton smiled, moved his hand and made a buzzing sound. Kaiyuan Tongbao flew into the air again, clapped his hands and said, "this is the wonder of this problem. Can you guess whether it is positive or negative this time?"


    Quan wanjiton opened his glasses and looked at Merton sweating. He seemed to have guessed Merton''s plan.


    Merton said proudly, "there is a unique scientific name of Mohism called probability. Therefore, Mohist sages have thrown tens of thousands of coins continuously, and got a very interesting result. That is, the more coins thrown, the closer the probability of positive and negative sides is to half. At the same time, the gender of newborns in a county is counted, and the number of boys and girls is almost equal."


    "What does this mean?" Cheng Yaojin didn''t understand.


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of household, sighed and said, "the probability of positive and negative sides of each coin toss is half, so is having a child."


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly opened his eyes and said, "that is to say, half of every child is probably a girl."


    "That''s right!" Merton said. "Every time a woman has a daughter, the probability is half. In terms of probability, some lucky mothers will always have boys, and unlucky mothers may have girls all their life."


    "Give birth to a girl all your life!" even Li Shimin said in a startled voice with a jump in his eyebrow.


    Merton nodded: "of course, this is a very special case, which is almost impossible. However, in the coin tossing experiment of Mohist sages, there have been 20 consecutive negative examples, and more than 10 consecutive negative examples can be found everywhere."


    The Manchu courtiers nodded. There are ten or eight girls in a folk family. What''s more, there will be examples that even if they marry many wives and concubines, they are still the last.


    "Since it''s not a woman''s fault to have a boy or a girl, it''s a matter of probability. Why let a woman bear the blame of people all over the world and be positioned as a crime of seven." Merton suddenly turned around and said with sharp eyes.


    For a moment, no one dared to look directly at Merton. Everyone knew that women all over the world really suffered too much criticism. They used to enjoy it at ease, but now they are just poked open the window paper by Merton.


    Quan Wanji was even more pale, dying and struggling: "what if a woman can''t have children at all?"


    Merton sniffed: "infertility is a disease. You can find a doctor to recuperate. Besides, it''s not certain whether it''s a man''s problem or a woman''s problem. If you leave as soon as possible, the woman may be able to find another good marriage."


    Quan Wanji''s speech suddenly stumbled, and all the ministers couldn''t help looking at Quan Wanji with a sigh. This time, Quan Wanji lost the whole game and lost.


    "Please make a decision." Merton looked at Quan Wanji contemptuously and immediately restrained his momentum and became a clever boy.


    Li Shimin pondered for a long time, got up from the Dragon chair and said, "Zhu Qing still has objections."


    The Manchu civil and military shook their heads one after another. The lesson of Quan Wanji was right in front of them. Naturally, they would not be boring.


    "In that case, in the future, among the seven kingdoms of women in the Tang Dynasty, if a woman has no children, she is not among the seven kingdoms. However, a husband can take a concubine to have children, and a wife over 50 years old has no children, so it is easy to make a concubine." Li Shimin is worthy of being an emperor''s means, and the balance method can be used skillfully, which not only protects the woman, but also allows the family to inherit. If a woman cannot have children, it is seven kingdoms, The man can take a concubine or divorce his wife. "


    "Your Majesty is holy!" Quan Wanji breathed a sigh of relief.


    "As for the Han family daughter!" Li Shimin said in a cold voice, "Han, Hu and Zhu matchmaker were handed over to Chang''an County for trial. The Han family daughter was buried by the imperial court and the wedding letter was newly made and engraved on the tombstone to warn people all over the world."


    "Your Majesty is holy and bright. I will thank you for your grace on behalf of the Korean women!" Merton said sincerely. This is the broad-minded Li Shimin in power. If you change the emperor, Merton''s move today will not be so smooth.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with complicated eyes and said, "Merton, I''m very pleased that you ask for orders for men and women all over the world today. I hope you can abide by today''s ambition. If you have duplicity and inconsistent words and deeds, I will not spare you."


    Merton was startled. He felt that Li Shimin had something to say. However, it was not the time to think. He promised: "please rest assured, your majesty. Merton''s words today can be supervised by people all over the world. If it is violated, it will be pointed out by thousands of people."


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little, nodded with satisfaction, turned and left.


    "Step back!" pointed pound.


    "Your majesty!" the ministers bowed.


    Soon, the news in the Imperial Palace spread all over the world. Merton beat Wendeng drum in public to ask for orders for the Han family''s daughter. Countless people had long looked forward to it. When he learned that the news of the war of words with the imperial censor on the chaotang Hall of the Mohist family spread, the whole city immediately burst into an uproar.


    "The Mexican family is simply immoral." the old stubborn scolded bitterly, especially in the family of dolls and child brides, many of them gnash their teeth at Merton.


    "Mozi is worthy of Mozi!" countless young people ran and shouted.


    However, in the hearts of the young generation, Merton''s behavior was very gratifying. Merton did what they never dared to think. For a moment, countless young people immediately regarded Merton as an idol and were passively manipulated like a puppet. Even parents can''t accept such things. Today, Merton brings them a glimmer of hope for freedom.


    At the same time, Merton''s theory that boys and girls are not women has been approved by all mothers in Chang''an city. Women all over the world bear too much criticism, and they can''t wash themselves by jumping into the Yellow River.


    At the moment, all the women in the world envy the mysterious woman. If anyone marries the Mexican family, he will certainly become the happiest woman in the world.

 Chapter 468

    Chang''an County Government


    Su Luosheng, the magistrate of Chang''an County, was very decisive. That afternoon, he directly tried the Korean women''s case in public, and a large number of people came to watch.


    "The county announced that Han laitou, Hu Zhongding and Zhu matchmaker, in spite of the repeated orders of the imperial court, openly bought and sold marriage and forced the death of the Han family''s daughter. They had a bad influence, trampled on ethics and shared anger. It was an unforgivable crime," Su Luosheng shouted angrily.


    Under the lobby, the three people knelt down and fell into a trance. Matchmaker Zhu almost collapsed to the ground. They had learned that the matter had reached the Jinluan hall. Naturally, they knew that there was no room for turning around.


    "Good!"


    The onlookers immediately applauded. As long as they were normal people, they hated them and gnashed their teeth.


    "I hereby pronounce that Han laitou, Hu Zhongding, and you two are wives and concubines. For three years, they beat 30 boards again and parade in the street for three days to warn the world. Matchmaker Zhu is an accomplice. For one year, they beat 20 boards again and parade in the street for three days. They are not allowed to serve as matchmaker for life." Su Luosheng clapped a startled picture and shouted angrily.


    This matter was sounded by the Mohist school. Wen denggu startled the emperor. Naturally, he wanted to do it beautifully and satisfactorily.


    Han laitou, master Hu and matchmaker Zhu all burst into a wail and pleaded for mercy. However, they could not change the outcome at all. They were soon framed by six yamen servants.


    "Pa Pa Pa!"


    The sound of beating the board was mixed with the screams of the three people. However, no one around had the slightest sympathy for the three people. Compared with the crimes committed by the three people, this punishment can be said to be insignificant.


    The thirty big boards are not easy to get. If they are heavy, it is common to kill people. If it is not for suluosheng''s advice, three people need to walk in the street to warn the world. I''m afraid they will not survive.


    Rao is so. After a meal, all three are dying.


    "Report to your excellency, it''s finished!" after beating the board, the Yamen came back to reply.


    "Take it down and take strict care of it. After tomorrow, you will parade in the street." suluosheng said coldly.


    After Han Lai''s first three people were escorted back, all the people left one after another. Soon, the punishment results of Han Lai''s first three people soon spread all over Chang''an city.


    "What a joy!"


    "The result is already three cheaper!"


    "Now your majesty has ordered that the future marriage certificate must be signed in the county government, and both men and women are willing. I hope the tragedy of the Han family woman can be put an end to from now on!"


    "Hum! If someone commits another crime against the wind, the fate of matchmaker Zhu will be a lesson for them."+


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an city immediately talked and applauded.


    Matchmakers in Chang''an city are frightened by it. Some greedy matchmakers often deal with this kind of marriage, but they are lucky that they have not met the fierce Hu family girl or the outspoken Mo family.


    If there were a matchmaker to participate in this matter, I''m afraid there would be no such good luck. In the future, the signing of the marriage certificate was in the county government. If the woman sued for the sale of marriage on the spot, everyone would not be able to eat and walk around at that time.


    Of course, no one has forgotten the merits of the Mohist school. All along, which of the important officials in the court is not old and has never spoken for the youth. At the moment, there is finally a spokesman for the youth in the court, that is, the Mohist school.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "At your level, you still want to compete with the Mohist family. The Mohist family dare to fight with the censor alone in the court, and return home with a big victory. As for you, you do nothing all day, cause trouble, and implicate the whole family."


    In the Wei mansion, the Wei family leader pointed to Wei Si''an''s nose and cursed. People are more popular than people. On weekdays, he also pays more attention to his third son, but it''s different from Mohist.


    Wei Si''an''s scolding was not wronged at all. This time, the debate between Confucianism and Mohism was triggered by the lantern night. It can be said that Wei Si''an started it. At the beginning, Wei Si''an just wanted to suppress the MOH family and propose to marry Princess Changle. Originally, it was a dog blood triangle relationship, but finally it became a change in the marriage system of the Tang Dynasty, which spread widely and had long been separated from the original plan of the Wei family.


    Not to mention that under the retaliation of Merton, the Wei family suffered heavy losses. The cloth business, the pillar industry of the family, was greatly impacted. In only a few days, the cloth printed and dyed by major cloth merchants had been listed in advance. The new cloth should be better than the Wei family in both quality and color. More importantly, the new printing and dyeing secret technology is not easy to fade, even after washing it ten or eight times, The water in the basin is crystal clear.


    As soon as it was launched, it was immediately welcomed by Chang''an city. The Wei family''s cloth fell back one after another and suffered heavy losses.


    "My child is incompetent! Please punish my father." Wei Si''an said dejectedly. He calculated that Merton''s pride had disappeared from the lantern night, and all that remained was deep weakness.


    "But I''m not reconciled. The Mohists have done such a terrible harm to the Wei family, but I''m unharmed. Do I have to swallow this tone?" Wei Si''an said gnashing his teeth.


    Lord Wei snorted coldly, "naturally not!"


    When Wei Si settled down, he looked at his father with a glimmer of hope and said excitedly, "father, what''s your idea?"


    Master Wei sneered and said, "the reason why Merton was able to turn over this dispute between Confucianism and ink is that ink magazine is the greatest contributor!"


    "Ink magazine?" Wei Si''an asked.


    "Yes, it''s the ink magazine. As the saying goes, three people make a tiger and all the people make gold. Who dared to face the accusation of the censor of the Manchu Dynasty in the past? At that time, the whole Chang''an City criticized the ink family. Even the husband thought that the ink family must be discredited and have no power to fight back. Who knows that only one ink magazine will change the wind direction of the whole Chang''an City in an instant." a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the Wei family leader.


    One word, the world knows!


    This is the most powerful place of Ink magazine. Before that, the power of public opinion could be said to be firmly in the hands of the censor and the literati. However, Merton''s counterattack made them see the power of Ink magazine, and the original power of public opinion unique to the censor literati became vulnerable,.


    Moreover, in the past, public opinion often broke out only after certain practice and brewing, and ink magazines were directly sent to thousands of households, which is known all over the world and extremely fast. How can they not be surprised that such a sharp weapon of public opinion is in the hands of Mohist Zi.


    "My father means that the Wei family will also set foot in the press!" wesan''s eyes lit up.


    Lord Wei nodded and said, "since the Mohists have caused heavy losses to the Wei family, how can we wait to die? Is there any reason not to fight back?"


    Weisi''an worried: "but we don''t have the channels of Mojia village all over Guanzhong!"


    The introduction of ink periodicals is simple. There is no technical content in woodblock printing. As long as you look for it carefully, there are some rigid talents among the major printing Booksellers in Chang''an city. In fact, the most important thing is the fast news channel. Although the Wei family has a big family and great business, it is only a generation in Chang''an city. Where is the news of Mohist village extensive and fast.


    "The Wei family alone can''t do it, but this time it''s not the Wei family. I don''t like the presence of many people in the Mohist school." the Wei family leader smiled insidiously.


    Wei Sian''s eyes lit up and said in surprise, "does Father mean Confucianism?"


    Lord Wei nodded and said, "yes, Lord Quan has contacted me. In the future, someone will certainly write articles for Wei''s newspapers and periodicals. Even when writing articles, some Confucian Wenzong can write articles in person. Just let''s name the newspaper as Confucian journal!"


    "Confucian journal!" Wei Si''an''s eyes brightened. In this way, there is no need to worry about the sales of Confucian journals. There are so many Confucian scholars in the world. One person is enough to crush the ink journal.


    "But didn''t my father say that the Wei family didn''t participate in the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism?" Wei Si''an didn''t understand.


    The master of the Wei family immediately hated iron and said, "since the Wei family and the Mohist family have had a bad relationship, they naturally want to stand on the side of Confucianism."


    "Father is wise!" said wesan suddenly.


    Lord Wei solemnly looked at Wei Si''an and said, "now your official career has been broken. It''s a way for you to find a way out for your father to deliver the Confucian journal to you. I hope you don''t live up to your father''s expectations."


    "Thank you, father!" wesan said excitedly.


    If he could master a newspaper and often deal with some literary scholars, he would not be able to turn over in the future.


    "MOH family, the contest between you and me has just begun!" Wei Si''an said ambitiously.

 Chapter 469

    "Boom!"


    Outside Chang''an City, a tombstone engraved with the marriage law of the new family was erected, and the Hu family woman finally settled down.


    The funeral of the Hu family''s daughter was simple but grand. Countless people in Chang''an City spontaneously saw her off and put wreaths on her. It was also the last comfort of the miserable woman.


    Her desperate struggle has earned a dawn of freedom for women in the Tang Dynasty. Perhaps in the history of women''s rights in future generations, this matter will certainly have the name of Hu''s daughter.


    The county government official set the starting point for Han Lai''s first three people to walk in the street in front of the tombstone of Hu''s daughter. The three people didn''t dare to look at Hu''s daughter''s tombstone at all, and their eyes dodged.


    "Deserved it!"


    "You deserve to die!"


    The people of Chang''an City glared at each other.


    Many more people took out their rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and smashed them at them. If the Yamen hadn''t stopped them, they wouldn''t be able to get out of here.


    It was not until they saw that the people''s mood was about to get out of control that the people of Chang''an County government pulled the three away and continued to parade in the streets.


    It was not until a long time later that the people left one after another. Merton, dressed in civilian clothes, came to the Han''s female tomb.


    After solemnly applying the three incense sticks, Merton sighed. Although he nominally avenged the Hu family woman, he actually used the Han family woman as a weapon to attack the feudal ethics, which was mixed with his own selfishness.


    "If the Hu family''s daughter is under the Jiuquan spring, she will be able to close her eyes if she knows that the Tangtang Mohist son will fight for her, hear the denggu and avenge her wrongs." behind her, Master Li''s voice suddenly sounded.


    Merton bowed back and said, "how could the master be here."


    Master Li said, "I''m the editor in chief of Mo magazine. The case of Hu''s daughter directly rewrites the marriage system of the Tang Dynasty. How can I do it? This is the headline of the next issue of Mo magazine!"


    Merton nodded. If the ink magazine didn''t respond, Master Li would be dereliction of duty.


    "The Hu family''s daughter may also have my responsibility. If it weren''t for the ink magazine and didn''t reveal the sale and marriage, maybe the Han family''s daughter wouldn''t commit suicide." Merton whispered.


    With the spread of the news, the life of the Korean women gradually came out. The Korean family was in decline. The young Korean women also read and read. They should have read ink magazines. Coupled with the people around them talking and pointing, this gave birth to the idea of suicide.


    Master Li sneered and said, "that''s to live. It''s better to live than die. It''s the Han and Hu families that really force the death of the Han women."


    Merton certainly knows, but he still has some knots in his heart.


    "I hope there''s no Korean girl in the world?" Merton said silently.


    Of course, he knows that the sale of marriage is prohibited repeatedly, but in the secular society of the Tang Dynasty, it is valuable for him to win the voluntary signature of both parties.


    Although some women are forced by the pressure at home and obey the arrangements at home, at least they can see their husband before marriage. It is their own choice to be able to write at the moment. Even if this choice is wrong, the resentment in their hearts can be reduced.


    "Master, come back together!"


    After a long time, Merton shook his disordered thoughts.


    Merton and Mr. Li boarded the carriage. The carriage turned around and drove slowly towards Chang''an city.


    In the carriage, they sat opposite each other. He knew that since Master Li appeared here, he must have something to discuss.


    Master Li hesitated several times, and then opened his mouth and said, "something happened to Ink magazine."


    "Huh?"


    Merton suddenly looked up at Mr. Li. Ink magazine is an important link in the revival of Mohism. He is probably the only one who knows the importance of newspapers and periodicals in the whole Tang Dynasty.


    "Half of the editors in the ink magazine have been poached," said master Li with a ashamed face


    The editors in the ink magazine were brought out by Master Li. They were all depressed and frustrated scholars. After joining the ink magazine, they showed their talents, which can be said to be proud of the situation.


    It can be said that Mr. Li had a sense of gratitude to them, but now he was betrayed by so many people. Mr. Li was immediately sad. If he had no editors, how could he personally write about the Korean women today.


    "Poaching? Will there be a new issue in Chang''an city!" Merton frowned.


    Merton was not surprised. When he decided to publish an article in Ink magazine, ink Magazine showed its power, and he knew it would be today.


    Master Li sighed, "it was the Wei family who dug it."


    He presided over the ink magazine and was well-informed. Naturally, he couldn''t hide this from him.


    Merton suddenly realized that Wei Si''an and the Wei family had repeatedly provoked him, and he gave the Wei family a heavy blow by the hand of Taoist Changsheng. It can be said that he had already accepted the hatred. It''s not surprising that the Wei family did so.


    Master Li said, "although it''s the Wei family, it''s not so simple behind it. The name of the new issue is Confucianism."


    "Confucian journal!" Merton said sarcastically. "So, there is the shadow of Confucianism."


    Master Li nodded solemnly. He brought out the editors himself, but they were tempted by fame and wealth. So many people betrayed their faith, which had to make him cold.


    "From then on, Confucianism will become the biggest rival of Mo magazine," said Li


    "The master is still here, isn''t it because the Wei family didn''t invite the master?" Merton looked at Mr. Li playfully. After all, Mr. Li is also a Confucian. When the Confucian journal was founded, it''s natural that women didn''t miss digging Mr. Li.


    "I did a good job in Ink magazine. Of course I won''t go to Wei''s house to suffer from that leisure." Master Li sneered. Naturally, someone came to dig him and was rejected by him.


    Although Mr. Li is also a Confucian, his behavior is perverse and extreme, which is not tolerated by Confucianism. He is called a strange Confucian. However, in the ink journal, Mr. Li is full of words, criticizing current politics and unhappy. How can he care about these? In addition, Mr. Merton is his financier. The success or failure of running a master''s college and building a school is the hand of Mohism. How can he leave.


    "In addition, Mo San also had many carvers dug away!" Master Li sighed. The Wei family was so cruel that they directly emptied half of the ink magazine.


    Merton raised his eyebrows and sneered, "those people found the importance of newspapers and magazines at this time, so that Mo looked at them highly?"


    Mr. Li looked at Merton puzzled and said, "don''t you worry about the growth of Confucianism?"


    You know, once the Confucian journal is established, the ink journal will bear the brunt, and Merton even looks like he doesn''t care.


    "The more arguments are made, the more clear the arguments are! The Mohists are eager to publish a new magazine to reproduce the contention of a hundred schools of thought." Merton sneered.


    It can be said that the emergence of newspapers and periodicals has greatly promoted civilization, greatly satisfied people''s thirst for knowledge, greatly promoted the dissemination of various knowledge and the collision of ideas. In this era, it is not too much to call it the information explosion.


    It can be said that the emergence of "Confucian journal" has been calculated by Merton all the time. Even for Merton, these people''s reaction is too slow.


    "How should the ink magazine deal with it?" said master Li, somewhat embarrassed. Although he can write articles, he has no experience in running a business.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the value of newspapers and periodicals lies in the timeliness of news. As long as the news recorded in ink periodicals is the latest and fastest thing, Mohism is naturally in an invincible position."


    "Don''t we prepare for anything?" Master Li said sadly.


    Merton took out a pile of manuscript paper from his arms and handed it to master Li. He said confidently, "if master is not at ease, he can publish it on the ink journal to ensure that the Confucian journal will be defeated."


    "Liang Zhu?" Master Li took the manuscript paper and didn''t understand.


    "This is a novel." Master Li suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Merton inconceivably. He didn''t expect that mojiazi was also a novelist.


    Mr. Li naturally knows the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in detail. This is a love story of the Jin Dynasty, which is also quite popular in the Tang Dynasty.


    Mr. Li sat in the car and looked down. When he saw Zhu Yingtai disguised as a woman entering the academy to study, he suddenly understood Merton''s intention.


    Merton smiled. Although his love affair with Princess Changle had been ethically solved and no one had criticized, Merton was not satisfied with this. He wanted to make Princess Changle the envy of everyone.


    "Liang Zhu" is his second step plan.

 Chapter 470

    After giving Liang Zhu to master Li, Mozi didn''t take it to heart, but handed it over to master Li. He prepared wholeheartedly, and Mo San nodded solemnly.


    "In addition, Merton doesn''t invite Legalists to stay in Mo magazine. In my opinion, it''s the most appropriate at present. You can invite Han Fuzi to open a legalist column by taking the Han women''s case as an example." Li Fuzi said.


    There are a large number of Wenzong in the Wei family who wave the flag and shout for it. The ink journal naturally dare not neglect it. The name of the legalist Han Zheng is no weaker than these Wenzong. In addition, the editor of the ink journal has been poached by the Wei family. Han Zheng''s joining can just make up for the vacancy of the ink journal and kill two birds with one stone.


    After all this, Master Li put down the stone in his heart. In fact, although Mohist magazine was founded for Mohist school, Mohist school did not use it to publicize Mohist school, but the things reported were also extremely neutral, which is also the reason why Mohist magazine is popular.


    "I don''t believe that just a few literary scholars can support a newspaper!" Master Li said angrily.


    "Master Li, third brother! No! Many customers in Chang''an city asked to unsubscribe from ink magazines!" a Mohist son hurried in and said in a panic.


    "Unsubscribe from ink magazine?" Mo San immediately panicked. Now Ink magazine has attracted many advertisers with such a large sales volume. If the subscription volume of Ink magazine drops greatly, those advertisements will turn to his home.


    "It must have been the advice of those old diehards!" Master Li shouted angrily.


    Most of those who unsubscribed from ink magazines were scholars, yamen, and scholars. Before, these people had no choice but to read ink magazines. Now that the Confucian magazine is about to be established, these people immediately turned their faces and abandoned ink magazines.


    However, there was no double blessing and no single misfortune. Soon news came that merchants who put advertisements in Chang''an city also cut off their sponsorship.


    "What families are they?" Master Li angrily said.


    Mo San bitterly revealed the names of several families.


    Master Li said coldly, "these are businesses controlled by the official family. There is no accident. However, ink magazine, especially where they come and go, let out the wind. If it is a merchant who breaks the contract, ink magazine will not cooperate with it from now on."


    "What about so many cancellations?" asked the Mohist children who came to report.


    Master Li hummed coldly, "in that case, they will suffer their own consequences. On the second day of February," don''t worry, sir Quan. I have a shocking news, which will certainly make Confucianism popular. "Wei Si''an said proudly.


    "Hmm?" Quan Wanji looked at him immediately.


    Wei Si''an smiled and said, "according to the report of the Wei family informant, a large number of poisons are made in the Mojia village. What do adults Quan think of this as the front page headline of the Confucian journal?"


    At the beginning, it was not only the Taiyuan Wang family who installed informants in the Mojia village, but all the aristocratic families in Chang''an City who were a little interested in ink technology would think of using this move. Wei Si''an didn''t think that a free chess arranged by the Wei family would bring such hot news.


    "Making poison? Is that true?" Quan Wanji was surprised and hurriedly asked.


    Wei Si''an solemnly nodded and said, "it''s absolutely true. According to the report of Wei''s informant, Mojia village once used this poison to do experiments, and even a pig couldn''t stop it. He died in a moment, or he buried the poisoned pig himself!"


    "Such a strong poison!" Quan Wan Gideon was startled.


    Wei Si''an nodded and said, "and the number is huge. The informant reported that the poisons made by Mojia village are full of a large warehouse."


    Quan Wanji closed his eyes and thought, and said fiercely in his eyes: "the investigation of this matter is clear to ensure that the iron evidence is like a mountain. This time I want to see that the Mohist school is as clever as a tongue spring?"


    "Yes!" said wesan excitedly.

 Chapter 471

    With the passing of the Han family women''s case, people''s heated discussion gradually receded. On the contrary, two other major events in Chang''an city covered it.


    One is the founding of Confucian magazine, and the other is "Ink magazine. We have already unsubscribed from ink magazine, so we can see it when Confucian magazine is released."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The scribes stood in line one after another.


    They are all children of Confucianism. Naturally, they support Mo magazine. This is a matter of position.


    "Shopkeeper pan, should you change your ink magazine? We often come to your restaurant. If there is no Confucian magazine, we won''t come again!" the scholar in green clothes suddenly shouted to shopkeeper pan on the counter.


    When shopkeeper pan heard the speech, he said with a smile: "when Confucian journals are listed, villains will naturally buy them."


    He is a businessman. Naturally, he will not be stingy with a little money when customers need it. However, if he is asked to unsubscribe from ink magazines, he is really unwilling. After all, compared with these literati, the last more drinkers in the restaurant prefer ink magazines that are straightforward, interesting and contain world wonders.


    The scholar in Confucian clothes could not hear the perfunctory meaning of shopkeeper pan. He frowned and was about to say it again. Suddenly, a son of Mohism appeared at the door of Pan''s restaurant.


    "Could it be that ink magazine has added a special issue?" shopkeeper Pan said with joy when he saw the children of Mohism. As a restaurant shopkeeper, he usually entertains customers from all over the world, and the things published by Merton all over the world make him like a fish in water. How can he be willing to unsubscribe from ink magazine.


    The children of Mohism smiled and said, "the latest issue of Ink magazine will be published after the ink technology exhibition. Shopkeeper pan doesn''t have to worry."


    Shopkeeper pan didn''t understand and said, "Why are you here this time?"


    The children of Mohism showed a mysterious smile and said, "although it''s not an ink magazine this time, I believe shopkeeper pan will like it."


    "Oh!" shopkeeper pan suddenly became interested.


    The children of the Mohist School said positively, "since the pan family restaurant is a loyal reader of the ink magazine, the Mohist school specially invited shopkeeper pan to participate in the ink technology exhibition on the second day of February."


    "Invited to the ink exhibition?" shopkeeper Pan said in surprise.


    Many diners were also stunned. Last year''s ink technology exhibition was wonderful and free. However, because the reputation of Mohism was not obvious, many people didn''t catch up. Among them, the amazing ink technology has been talked about by them with great regret.


    This year, they have long sharpened their hands and secretly determined that they must not miss the ink technology exhibition. Who knows that this year''s ink technology exhibition is no longer directly open, but directly invited.


    "This Mohist, how can I get the invitation of Mohists to go to the Mohist art exhibition? How much does it cost?" a diner asked curiously. The Confucian scholar next to me couldn''t help listening.


    The Mohist child smiled and said, "it''s free to participate in the ink technology exhibition. You can get an invitation to participate in the ink technology exhibition by subscribing to ink magazines for a long time. Each ink magazine will give you a ticket. Of course, if you unsubscribe halfway, it''s not available."


    Scholars in Confucian clothes suddenly turned green when they heard the speech at the table.


    The diner immediately looked out and said, "I''m relieved. I ordered ink magazines all year round."


    The Mohist children said politely, "thank you for your support to the Mohist magazine. I believe your ticket has been delivered by the Mohist children in person."


    "This is the invitation ticket for the ink technology exhibition! Please accept it in person by shopkeeper pan." the children of the Mohists respectfully handed shopkeeper pan a large stack of invitation rolls.


    "Twenty?" shopkeeper pan looked out with joy.


    Mohist children smiled and said, "when shopkeeper pan orders 20 ink magazines, naturally there will be 20 tickets. Shopkeeper pan should keep them well. There are not many tickets issued in Chang''an city!"


    Shopkeeper pan suddenly turned his eyes. Naturally, he knew that many people unsubscribed from ink magazines because of Confucianism magazines. In this way, those who unsubscribed from ink magazines naturally had no tickets.


    Watching the Mohist children leave, shopkeeper pan hid the ticket in his arms.


    "In my opinion, if you don''t watch the ink exhibition, maybe the ink family has run out of talent." the Confucian scholar said sour.


    "Yes, the Mohist school is just relying on the legacy of Mohist sages and eating nothing!" the fellow scholars echoed one after another.


    "Sour! If you had half the brains of the Mohist family, you would have been the top student in high school." the diner asked just now sneered.


    "You dare to humiliate me!" the Confucian scholar couldn''t stop his anger.


    "Shame, I''m telling the truth. As far as I know, the Mohist school has built a large venue outside Nancheng for this ink technology exhibition, which is enough to accommodate nearly 10000 people. The Mohist family is so confident, but you''re talking sarcastically here. What''s not sour jealousy?" the diner said mercilessly.


    "The meeting place of nearly ten thousand people?" people exclaimed in the pan family restaurant.


    "Mozi is worthy of being a Mozi, or a consistent big pen!" other diners also exclaimed one after another.


    "I heard that Chengnan ink technology exhibition has been prepared since the new year. I believe it will not disappoint you this time."


    "Hum! When did Mohist School disappoint people?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone spoke to me and supported the Mo family one after another.


    Scholars in Confucian clothes suddenly turned blue and red, and many people immediately regretted that they had subscribed to ink magazines for many years before, but now they unsubscribed ink magazines because Confucian magazines were about to be released.


    If you let them know that it will be so, they won''t unsubscribe. At least they will unsubscribe after the ink technology exhibition. It''s OK to order two copies at the same time! Ink magazine is a semi monthly magazine. One copy is only one Wen, and even the annual subscription is only 20 Wen.


    "Shopkeeper pan, do you want to sell your invitation coupons? I just came from Luoyang and specially prepared to see the ink art exhibition. Unexpectedly, I still need to invite coupons." a businessman from Luoyang hoped.


    Many people''s eyes suddenly brightened. Shopkeeper Pan had 20 tickets at once, which was naturally inexhaustible.


    Shopkeeper Pan said: "sell, sell naturally!"


    "Please give me a price, shopkeeper pan?" Luoyang merchants said happily.


    Shopkeeper pan raised a finger.


    "A penny? Shopkeeper pan is really benevolent and righteous!" Luoyang merchants said happily.


    Shopkeeper pan shook his head and said, "no, it''s a penny."


    Luoyang merchants were immediately dissatisfied and said, "why don''t you grab it? Ordering an ink magazine for the whole year is only 20 Wen, and one silver is worth 100 Wen, enough for five years."


    Shopkeeper pan sneered: "if the ink magazine is not worth so much money, but now you are the ticket to the ink technology exhibition. If you are not regular guests of the pan restaurant, I would like to sell it. If you change others, I would double it and I wouldn''t sell it!"


    For a moment, everyone was silent. Although there was a lot of money, it was nothing to watch the ink technology exhibition, but shopkeeper pan didn''t have to work hard, but they had to spend a lot of money to buy it. They were uncomfortable.


    "If you are too expensive, you can wait three days and watch the ink technology exhibition for free." shopkeeper pan sneered.


    In three days, even if they lived in Chang''an City for three days, they spent more than a penny. At present, Luoyang merchants no longer hesitated, took out a penny and bought an invitation voucher.


    Subsequently, many people paid for it. Soon, Pan''s showcase had sold ten invitation tickets and earned one or two silver.


    However, more people think it''s worthless and wait and see. However, they regret the development of things,


    These people are not the only ones who regret. In Chang''an City, those ink magazines that have unsubscribed have regretted one by one. They even missed such grand events as ink technology exhibition because of a thought difference.


    Citizens without ink technology exhibition invitation tickets spent money to buy them. For a while, a new career, scalpers, was born in Datang.


    There are smart people who spend money to buy invitation rolls and sell them at a high price. On the opening day of the ink technology exhibition, an invitation roll was fired for one or two silver, and there is no market for it.

 Chapter 472

    "On February 2, the dragon looks up; big Cang is full, small Cang flows."


    In Chang''an City, children running all over the street say this folk proverb and play with each other.


    It is said that every day is the day when the Dragon King in charge of clouds and rain looks up; From then on, the rain will gradually increase to show that farming is about to begin.


    Before February 2, most people in Chang''an City supported pancakes or ate fried beans at home. Many children also have the custom of shaving their heads. Many children keep a handful of fetal hair or full hair from childhood to pray for peace. When they grow to six or nine years old, they ask their uncles to cut off that handful of hair on the second day of February, and then their relatives and friends come to congratulate them.


    Of course, it''s not easy to cut this one. Uncles should seal a big red envelope.


    However, on the second day of February this year, it was particularly lively. In addition to the long-awaited ink technology exhibition, the Confucian journal, which gathered a group of great scholars of Wenzong and worked hard to build, also issued its first issue today.


    "It''s said that several great scholars who have not been born for a long time have also been invited by the Confucian journal. This time, the Confucian journal must be full of words."


    "It''s an honor for us to be taught by the great Confucianism."


    "Since this time, Confucianism has its own publication, and the way of saints will certainly be able to benefit the Tang Dynasty."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Chang''an City, many scholars were so excited that they ran around and called for the release of Confucian journals.


    Wei Si''an and Quan Wanji walked along the streets of Chang''an city. When they heard the voices of scholars talking, they nodded with satisfaction.


    "What the people want!" Quan Wanji said proudly.


    "It''s still the wise and resourceful people of power who can make the situation of Confucian journals popular before they start." Wei Si''an said excitedly. He paid more attention to the potential power brought by the popularity of Confucian journals.


    "Confucianism has its own publications, which are in keeping with the trend. For a long time, although many predecessors are full of knowledge, they can only get out of the dust. The establishment of Confucian journals is a brilliant move for Confucianism and a gospel for students all over the world." Quan Wanji said confidently.


    "Not bad!" Wei Si''an nodded and echoed. Yu Guang swept away and immediately saw the figure of teenage newsboys. These newsboys sell newspapers just to earn some living expenses. Since they can help ink magazines sell, they can also help Confucian magazines sell.


    "Coming!" they were shocked. The success or failure of Confucian journals depends on today''s achievements.


    "Come on, give me a Confucian journal!"


    "Give me one too!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Those who read books, hearing the word "Confucian journal", have generously offered to buy a Confucian journal. The price of Confucian journal is the same as that of ink journal. Everyone can afford it.


    Soon, the Confucian journals in the hands of the newsboy were sold out,


    "How many copies of Confucianism have been printed this time!" Quan Wanji suddenly asked.


    "Five thousand!" said wesan proudly.


    Five thousand Confucian periodicals have been put into Chang''an City, which is enough to balance the ink periodicals. The most important reason why ink periodicals are distributed more is that in addition to Chang''an City, ink periodicals are also sold to all Taoism in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Continue to publish! I want scholars all over the world to see Confucian journals!" Quan Wanji waved his hand.


    Wei Si''an suddenly said that Quan Wanji had nothing to say, but he didn''t know that a penny at the selling price of Confucian journals was a loss. With manpower, carving workers and paper and ink, a penny was not enough. Despite the sponsorship of advertisers, it was still a drop in the bucket.


    Every time a Confucian journal is printed, the Wei family will lose two articles. If only 5000 copies are printed in Chang''an City, the Wei family will not take it seriously. However, if it continues to be published, the Wei family will certainly suffer heavy losses.


    "Yes!" answered wesan stoutly.


    Now he has no way back. Now that he has reached this point, he can only catch up with the ducks and put them on the shelves. When Confucianism magazine completely breaks down ink magazine, all his efforts will be rewarded a hundred times.


    Quan Wanji nodded with satisfaction, picked up the Confucian journal in his hand, opened it, looked at pieces of articles, and muttered to himself, "such a good article naturally needs to be circulated to people all over the world. This is the great prosperity of Confucianism."


    Wei Si''an looked at the back of the Confucian journal in Quan Wanji''s hand and couldn''t help showing a trace of uncontrollable excitement.


    "Mexican family, I hope you like the present for you this time." wesan murmured.


    With the passage of time, the Confucian journal, which is expected by many people, has finally been sent to the hands of many scholars.


    In Guozijian calligraphy, almost everyone has a Confucian journal.


    "Good article! Worthy of being a great scholar of Wenzong!"


    "The sound of Hong Zhong is thought-provoking and lingering for three days."


    "This is our Confucian journal!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Calligraphy teaching assistants hold Confucian journals and applaud them one after another. Most of the literati invited by Quan Wanji are members of some articles. Once their poetry articles were published, they were immediately sought after by everyone.


    "In my opinion, Ma Fuzi''s article of Hongluo academy is the best. He said frankly that Mohism is not only a reflection, but also a voice of our hearts." a teaching assistant, Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, looked at it and shouted.


    In Confucian journals, other people''s articles were fair, or only publicized their own theories. However, master Ma directly attacked Mohism and was immediately pursued by many Confucian scholars.


    "I think master Ma''s statement is absolutely correct. The Mohist school is crazy. It''s crazy to secretly make poison in the Mohist school!" Liu Yinian shouted in the Imperial College.


    "Making poison?" people turned to the end one after another and were ecstatic when they saw this article.


    "Heaven''s evil can still live, but his own evil can''t live! This time, you were caught making poison. It depends on your cunning." Liu Yinian said excitedly.


    Soon, with the spread of Confucian journals, the news that Mojia village made poison quickly spread all over Chang''an city. Everyone was stunned. No one knew why Mojia village made poison well, and there was no market problem for Mojia Zi


    In the palace.


    "Making poison!" Li Shimin looked at the Confucian journal in his hand and a thick pile of memorials in front of him. He couldn''t help humming angrily. It would be strange if the Mohist didn''t cause something.


    "Pound, do you believe that mojiazi can make poison?" Li Shimin asked pound.


    Pound zhengse said: "according to the report of Confucian journal, it is obvious that we have mastered the human and material evidence. It is obvious that Mojia village must be making poison."


    Li Shimin nodded with a headache. Obviously, Mojia village was caught this time.


    Pound''s words changed: "as for the purpose of this poison, we don''t know. If your majesty summoned Marquis Mo to ask for clarification."


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "at this time, he must be preparing for the ink technology exhibition. I''ll give him another chance. If he can''t explain clearly at the ink technology exhibition, there will be only three divisions waiting for him."


    "I want to come to the ink art exhibition!" Li Shimin shouted.


    The last ink art exhibition benefited the whole Tang Dynasty a lot. Li Shimin naturally didn''t want to miss the second ink art exhibition. Moreover, with the attention of Mohists, this ink art exhibition must be very important. This is also the reason why he put down the matter for the time being. If it were someone else, it would have been tried by the third division.

 Chapter 473

    The opening time of the second ink technology exhibition was set in the afternoon. Just after noon, a large number of Chang''an citizens rushed to the south of Chang''an city with invitation tickets.


    This session of ink technology exhibition was not as hasty as the first session of ink technology exhibition, but after careful preparation, and the venue was arranged in advance.


    On the square in front of the venue, countless people from Chang''an poured in. Li Shimin jumped down from the carriage, and pound quickly followed him.


    "Sir, do you need an invitation ticket?" just as Li Shimin stood firm, a man came up with a way.


    Although Li Shimin''s personal visit was in micro clothes, his gorgeous clothes made people see that he was either rich or expensive. He was even watched by the scalpers.


    Pound quickly stared at the visitor with vigilance and quickly motioned to protect the bodyguard around him. If the person dared to commit any misconduct, he would take it immediately.


    "Invitation ticket?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "I don''t know. The Mohist ink art exhibition is not free to watch. Only those who subscribe to ink magazines for a long time will have invitation tickets. Few people in Chang''an City want to see the ink art exhibition. There are very few invitation tickets. I spent a lot of effort to get two. You only need one or two silver to watch the ink art exhibition with your own eyes "An exhibition of ink painting," said the Yellow bull proudly.


    "For a silver or two, you''re smarter than Mohists when you sell free invitation tickets for a silver or two!" Li Shimin said sarcastically.


    The Yellow bull said shamelessly, "the noble man is falsely praised. Compared with Mohist Zi, the villain is naturally inferior, but the villain is very sure to sell this invitation ticket for one or two silver.


    Seeing that Li Shimin didn''t mean to buy, Yu Guang swept around and saw two powerful Confucian scholars, one tall and one short, coming and selling them.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly. One or two silver coins is an invitation ticket. These people are crazy about money. Who will buy it?


    However, the final result surprised Li Shimin.


    "A silver or two! OK, I''ll take it. Today, I''ll question the Mohist family''s intention to make poison and uncover the hypocrisy of Mohist." the two Confucian scholars said with a righteous face. Each took out a silver or two, got two tickets from the ticket dealer and rushed into the ink technology exhibition.


    "Hei hei, it''s obvious that you are looking at each other and looking for so many reasons. Although the villain is not talented, he doesn''t believe that the Mo family is poisonous and harmful." the Yellow bull snorted coldly as he looked at the departure of the Confucian scholar.


    "Why do you believe in the MOH family so much!" Li Shimin asked curiously.


    The ox sneered and said, "if villains are as rich as the MOH family, they will have the idea to make poisons? Besides, if they harm people, who won''t do it secretly and let them know?"


    Li Shimin was stunned. It seems that there is some truth in his income, but the human and material evidence in the Confucian journal makes Li Shimin have lingering doubts.


    "Do you want to buy, villain? Here are two invitation rolls!" the scalper took out two invitation rights like a trick.


    "No, we have!" pound stepped forward and blocked the approach of the cattle.


    The Yellow Cattle stepped aside bitterly. They knew that these people had books. Why should they bother again.


    "It''s a VIP ticket!" cattle Yu Guang swept away and found that Li Shimin didn''t have to queue up like ordinary people. Under the leadership of Mohist children, they went directly into the VIP area.


    In addition to giving a lot of tickets in Chang''an City, Merton naturally didn''t fall behind the leaders of Li Shimin''s chaotang. Instead, Merton gave a lot of VIP tickets, including the best position in the front row and the box with better concealment. "This is your box!" the children of Mohism saluted respectfully and gently closed the door of the box.


    "Lord Mo has a heart." pound looked at the comfortable layout in the box and nodded with satisfaction. A single box naturally increases the concealment and safety. In addition, Li Shimin''s box is the best in his career, facing the center of the field.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, but his face was much better than when he came.


    When Li Shimin came to the box, the ink technology exhibition field immediately let him take a breath.


    "This black sheep!" Li Shimin blurted out.


    This is not what Li Shimin thinks. Everyone was deeply shocked by the scene in front of them when they entered the ink technology exhibition.


    The ink technology exhibition venue was built by Merton in imitation of the stadium of later generations. The venue is six mu in size, and there are dense seats around the venue, enough to accommodate nearly 5000 people.


    Naturally, this is nothing in future generations. The luxury of any stadium can exceed that of others. However, in the Tang Dynasty, such a great deal is probably an unprecedented record.


    As far as Li Shimin could see, the whole venue was packed with more than 3000 people, which was also the reason for canceling the ink magazine. Otherwise, more people would participate in the ink technology exhibition.


    "The Mohist school is very generous!"


    "He deserves to be the famous black sheep of Chang''an city. He is different when he makes a move!" many people smacked their tongue one after another.


    In the past, the great pen of Mohist school has been proved to be of great use. However, I''m afraid this venue has no use at all except for the ink technology exhibition.


    "Plundering the wealth of the people, extravagance and debauchery!" two Confucian scholars, one tall and one short, looked at each other and said with gnashing teeth. Seeing that the Mo family was so extravagant and wasteful, they strengthened their faith.


    "The wealth of the people? Every penny earned by the Mohist is innocent!" a black businessman nearby looked at them discontentedly. At the end of the new year, the Mohist magazine made every item of the income of the Mohist village open and transparent. Almost everyone knows that the Mohist village has today by virtue of its ink technology. How can we search for the wealth of the people.


    The high Confucian argued, "it''s the Mohists who earned it, and it''s also earned from thousands of people. What''s not the people''s fat and cream?"


    The merchant in black snorted coldly, "you can spend the money you earn as you want. Do you want others to point out?"


    In other places, as a merchant, I naturally dare not argue with Confucianism. However, at the moment, no one knows at the ink technology exhibition, and the merchant naturally does not look at Confucianism.


    The two Confucian scholars turned red and couldn''t speak.


    At the moment, a gong resounded through the city. In the center of the venue, on an already built stage, a teenager slowly appeared in the center of the stage.


    "Mojiazi!"


    "Mojiazi!"


    Suddenly the whole audience cheered! In particular, the younger generation is extremely enthusiastic. Mohist Zi can be said to be the idol of the younger generation of the Tang Dynasty, especially the Han family women''s case. Mohist Zi has changed the engagement system of the Tang Dynasty with his own efforts, which has been pursued by countless young people.


    "This boy!" Li Shimin ate the taste. Although his appearance must be more sensational, Li Shimin still had some resentment when he saw that mojiazi was so popular.


    Many Confucian scholars present at the scene were even more embarrassed. The Mohist school just appeared in Chang''an City for more than a year and had such a momentum. Over time, who can compete.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, the whole audience was silent. Everyone realized that the second ink technology exhibition was about to begin.

 Chapter 474

    "I know you must be talking about the black sheep of the Mohist family!" Merton stood on the stage, glanced around and looked at his eyes.


    "Ha ha ha!"


    Everyone laughed when they heard the speech. There are many appellations about Merton, but the appellation of the black sheep must not be thrown away.


    However, they found that although Merton stood in the center of the scene, his voice spread to everyone''s ears, making them feel like talking in front of him.


    Li Shimin''s eyes coagulated and looked at a trumpet like object in Merton''s hand. He was suddenly surprised.


    Merton raised his tin horn again. Only by relying on these original public address equipment and resonance equipment all over the audience can he hear the sound in the audience.


    "First of all, your enthusiasm for watching ink technology is too high. If the Mohists had not issued invitation tickets, there would be more than 10000 people today." Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Many people immediately nodded and had the wonderful performance of the first ink technology exhibition. Everyone was looking forward to the ink technology exhibition.


    "As a last resort, the Mohist school had to build a venue to ensure that more people could share the achievements of Mohist ink technology. You can sit here. I believe that Mohist magazines pay attention to readers. I hope you can like this gift of Mohist school," Merton explained.


    "Like it!"


    The audience responded that their long-term subscription to ink magazines would not cost much. However, the Mohists sent free invitation tickets to the ink technology exhibition, which immediately made them extremely honored and glorious.


    Not to mention when they heard that in Chang''an City, the ink technology exhibition had been fired for one or two silver coins, they couldn''t help feeling proud. They were very satisfied with the return gift of the Mohists.


    "Of course, the purpose of this venue is to show the ink technology exhibition once a year. If it is idle during this period, I''m afraid it will be the real loser," Merton mocked himself.


    Many people immediately burst into laughter.


    Merton then said: "for this reason, I''m going to use this as a place for Cuju and polo. Once there is a polo and Cuju game, it will be printed in the ink magazine for everyone''s entertainment. Of course, I''m afraid you have to pay for these tickets. The rest of the time, it will be open to you free of charge."


    "Mozi is worthy of Mozi. How can he do business at a loss? With these tickets alone, the venue will be able to recover the cost soon." the merchant in black exclaimed.


    Polo and Cuju are popular in Chang''an city. Many people like to play. Whenever there is Polo Cuju, there are a lot of onlookers. So far, there is no formal competition place in Chang''an city. The emergence of ink technology exhibition field is just right and doomed to lose.


    Li Shimin also felt a move in his heart. He himself is also an important lover of polo. If there is such a place to play polo, it must be a very comfortable thing.


    "The Mohists have done a good thing," said Li Shimin.


    Pound said with a smile, "at least don''t lose money. It''s estimated that he can earn the capital in a few years. I''m afraid he will make a net profit in the future."


    Li Shimin nodded deeply. The boy of Mohism ate everything but didn''t suffer a loss.


    "Well, no nonsense, I''ll officially announce the official start of the ink technology exhibition." Merton waved his big hand.


    In an instant, everyone held their breath, and even Li Shimin couldn''t help looking forward to it. After all, the first ink buying exhibition made too much contribution to Datang. If this ink exhibition could ensure the level of last year, even if the Mohist was really making poison, he would keep him.


    "I know, it''s said that Mojia village is making poison in Chang''an city today! I can tell you the truth now." Merton looked around and smiled strangely.


    "Yes! Mojia village has indeed made a batch of poisons!" Merton confessed.


    "Is it true?"


    The whole audience was in an uproar and immediately looked at each other.


    Poison! When poisons are involved, conspiracies, poisons and careless human lives will emerge in everyone''s mind. Who can''t figure out why Mojia village makes poisons.


    The tall Confucian scholar was stunned when he heard the speech, and his heart was ecstatic. He thought that the Mohists would deny it or secretly destroy the poison, but he didn''t think that Merton would admit it. He suddenly got up and asked, "poison has harmed countless people. I don''t know why the great Mohists want to make poison."


    Merton stretched out his hand, and a son of the Mohists stretched out his hand to give him a pottery bottle. For a moment, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton''s hand.


    "This is a bottle of poison. Obviously, the purpose of poison is to poison something."


    Suddenly everyone looked at Merton strangely. No one thought that the Mexican family would admit it so neatly and show such highly toxic drugs in person.


    Li Shimin''s face was livid. He just wanted to protect Merton. Unexpectedly, Merton admitted in full view of the public. Didn''t he send the handle to the enemy.


    The short Confucian scholars were overjoyed at the speech. They never thought it would go so smoothly. Then they got up and said, "mojiazi, you secretly make poisons to poison the living creatures. Don''t plead guilty quickly, otherwise no one can save you."


    Morton was surprised and said, "plead guilty? Do you think poisoning some pests will violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty?"


    "Poison pests?" the tall Confucian student stammered.


    Even Li Shimin was stunned and looked at Merton puzzled to see how he justified himself.


    "Mo Jiazi, no matter how clever you are, you can''t change the fact that you make poison." the short Confucian angrily scolded.


    "The poison in my hand is not to harm people, but a pesticide specially developed by the Mohist school. This is a bottle of poison. This bottle of poison is enough to poison a pig. Of course, it can also kill all pests in such a large field as the whole venue." Merton said proudly.


    "Pesticide!" everyone was stunned. The poison can kill even a pig, not to mention some pests.


    Merton sighed: "Mulberry leaves have no leaves, and smoke grows in the soil. The flute meets the Dragon Water Temple. The Zhu gate looks at songs and dances in several places and is afraid of spring Yin pharyngeal strings. The rain is not good or bad, but it falls at different times. However, a rain seems to be a different process to different people, and so is the poison. The world knows that poison hurts people, but it doesn''t know who is right or wrong. It depends on whose hand it is, and doctors also say that poison attacks poison with poison." The people nodded. It is recognized that scorpion, snake and other five poisons can be used as medicine.


    "Every year when the harvest season comes, pests are everywhere in the wheat field. They can''t be destroyed and killed. If it''s more serious, the crops will wither and seriously reduce production. If we use this poison to poison the pests, the boy can ensure that we can increase the yield by at least 50 kg per mu." Merton said proudly.


    "Fifty catties!" Li Shimin immediately breathed. If he could increase the yield by 50 catties per mu, how many fields and grains would be produced in the whole world would be no less than several Yongfeng warehouses produced by the imperial court every year.


    From this point of view, the Mohist school not only made no mistakes, but also made great contributions.

 Chapter 475

    "Kill pests."


    Many landlords present were overjoyed. In this era, land is the most precious wealth. As long as it is possible, no one is willing to give up their land. It can be said that 80% of the people present at the ink technology exhibition have land. Naturally, they know that in addition to natural disasters, pests are a huge factor in reducing grain production.


    Every summer and autumn, when the crops are about to mature, there are large areas of aphids! Lying on the crops and sucking juice is like beating bones and sucking marrow. If the pest is serious, the grain production will be greatly reduced. Although there are beneficial insects to help, it is just a drop in the bucket.


    Before that, everyone had no idea about pests. If they were field insects, they could only admit bad luck. However, Merton suddenly proposed pesticides to brighten their eyes.


    Since these pests are also living creatures, they are naturally afraid of poisons. Wouldn''t it be good to poison them? In this way, the pests must be completely eliminated.


    Many representatives of Guanlong aristocratic family couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. All along, the Mohist school has been actively promoting the governance of the Yellow River, limiting the continuous reclamation of land in Guanlong, which naturally limits the development of Guanlong.


    Although the Mohist family has always promised to continue to increase food production, people are always skeptical. Now the emergence of pesticides proves that the Mohist family really keeps its promise, which makes the Guanlong family feel reassured.


    Merton looked at the excited people of Chang''an city below. In fact, there are both herbicides and pesticides in future generations. However, under the limited conditions of Datang, Merton naturally can''t do herbicides that only kill weeds. Moreover, there is grass in the field. Farmers can pull it out if they work harder.


    But pests and diseases are not. Once pests and diseases appear, the whole field is dense and numerous. Farmers are helpless and can only obey their fate.


    However, with the emergence of pesticides, pests and diseases are no longer a difficult problem. The pathology of plants and insects is different. As long as pesticides are not used excessively, they can poison pests and have no impact on plants.


    "This time, Mojia village produces two kinds of pesticides, one is evenly mixed on the seeds before sowing, which can prevent birds and insects from eating and improve the budding rate, and the other is a pesticide specially used to kill pests. You can imagine that a farmland sprouts evenly and has weeds, which farmers pull out. When it is dry, set up kill wells for irrigation, and kill all insects with pesticides, Can such farmland produce high yield? "Murton shouted.


    "Yes!"


    Suddenly everyone responded excitedly. If such a field does not produce high yield, it is simply unreasonable.


    "Hoo!"


    Many people breathed suddenly, and their eyes became hot when they looked at the pesticide in Merton''s hands. In the eyes of ordinary people, they avoided the poison like snakes and scorpions. At the moment, they seem to be priceless.


    The two Confucian scholars, tall and short, looked at each other and couldn''t help being bitter. Who could have thought that mojiazi had such a Jedi counterattack. In this way, mojiazi not only completely cleared the accusation of poison, but also made great contributions to the opposition.


    "Mo Jiazi, no matter how good your idea is, it is difficult to implement it. How can you sprinkle such a small bottle of poison... Pesticides all over such a large farmland at the venue?" the tall Confucian provocatively said.


    Many people were stunned and suddenly looked up at Merton. The reason for killing pests with poison is very simple, not that others have never thought about it. However, one of the biggest problems is how to sprinkle these pesticides evenly on such a large farmland.


    However, when Merton heard the speech, he immediately showed a knowing smile.


    "Ink technology!"


    A word suddenly came to all hearts.


    Sure enough, Merton took out a strange shaped iron bucket from behind. As soon as he lifted his arm and exerted a little force, he carried the strange shaped iron bucket behind him.


    "This is a spray specially designed for pesticides by the Mohist. It can carry thirty pounds of water at a time. As long as adults can carry it back, add the right amount of pesticide into the water. A little bit of pressure can emit water mist from the hand tube, and a bucket of water is enough to spray one mu of land." It spewed out bursts of water mist.


    "That''s all?"


    Many people looked at bursts of water mist and immediately exclaimed. No one thought it was so simple.


    "Why didn''t we think of it?" many people regretted.


    "This is not simple!" Li Shimin shook his head. He saw clearly that the core of the sprayer was the pressure bar on the left hand side of Merton. It was a small killing well. The well killing was the first creation of Mohist, and it was the greatest hero who made the drought for Datang.


    I''m afraid the whole world, in addition to mojiazi, who can think of carrying the kill on his back.


    "So it is?"


    The more people understand the principle of spray, they are not conquered by the Mohist''s whimsy.


    "Well, the principle of this spray is to kill well, keep pace with the times and innovate. This is the slogan of the first ink exhibition, but not only for a year and a half, but for the purpose of Mohist school!" Morton bowed himself around.


    "See what you see! Mozi is worthy of Mozi!" the merchant in black couldn''t help praising him.


    Sure enough, it is still a strong Mohist style. It enlarges ordinary small things and shrinks large things. This is a trick commonly used by Mohists, and it has been tried repeatedly.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help staring at Merton''s head. He thought of enlarging Kongming lamp into a hot-air balloon. He saw that burning a pot of hot water could invent heating. Now he even reduced the kill well behind his back. Such a slight change would have an incredible effect. It''s really amazing.


    Li Shimin stared at Merton. Even if he didn''t like Merton again, he had to sigh that the Mohists did have a smart head. Fortunately, these are ordinary things, but they are still within the scope of people''s understanding. Otherwise, he really wanted to see how Merton''s brain is so different from others,


    A lot of businessmen are in the mood. This pesticide and sprayer will definitely make the Tang Dynasty hot. This is a great business opportunity. If we buy goods from Mohist village and send it to all parts of Datang, it will be a steady business. Suddenly, many sharp businessmen suddenly breathe quickly.


    A smile appeared on Li Shimin''s face. In this way, Merton not only resolved the rumors of making poison, but also brought the agriculture of Datang to a higher level.


    Food is the most important thing for the people. As an emperor, he the importance of natural food. Any method that can increase food production is valuable, especially the direct increase of 50 kg per mu. When he thought of Merton''s cold figures to calculate the number of people in the Tang Dynasty in a hundred years, Li Shimin was uneasy. Merton''s pesticides can be said to provide carbon in the snow.


    Ordinary people found a way to solve farmland pests, businessmen saw business opportunities, and Li Shimin saw the rising yield per mu of the whole Datang in the future. Only the first ink skill was enough to make the whole audience shout that it was a worthwhile trip.


    Ink technology exhibition immediately made a good start.

 Chapter 476

    However, in the joy of everyone, an disharmonious voice suddenly shouted, "food is the first thing for the people, and food safety is the first. Although your idea is good, Mozi, after all, pesticides are highly toxic. How can you eat them when sprinkled on food."


    The crowd looked around and saw the short Confucian student angrily accusing him.


    "This!" many people immediately hesitated.


    After all, poison is poison, which is harmful to human body. What if you eat it, it will be harmful to your body?


    Li Shimin immediately frowned and pressed Merton to see how Merton explained.


    Merton immediately retorted: "When a drop of ink drops into the basin, the water color is still black. If it drops into the pond, it will dissipate invisibly in an instant. This pesticide is a low toxicity thing. First, adding 30 kg of water will no harm to the human body. Second, it will spray six mu of land. The pesticide sprayed on each crop is very small. After killing pests, it will be cleaned after several rains. Third, it is sprayed On the surface of the grain, the grain seeds are not contaminated. Why is it poisonous? "


    Hearing Merton''s explanation, many people nodded and put down their trust. In this way, the toxicity of pesticide residues has been cleaned up.


    The short Confucian student snorted coldly: "after all, the poison is sprinkled on the crops. No matter how much food is produced, I won''t eat it."


    Merton looked cold: "You haven''t experienced hunger. For people who don''t have enough to eat, the most important thing is to have a full meal. This pesticide is specially used to kill insects. A delicate crop is still fine, not to mention people. Besides, all the grains, wheat and rice we eat will be shelled and only rice, flour and millet will be eaten. If the people all over the world don''t eat, they can be sold to Mojia village. From today on, Mojia village will make it Planting crops with pesticides, from Mo to ordinary young children, will take the grain sprayed with pesticides as food, so as to prove to the world that the grain sprayed with pesticides is harmless. "


    From childhood to later generations, Merton mostly ate the food planted with pesticides. If he didn''t grow up healthily, he wouldn''t be afraid of these.


    "I believe in mojiazi!"


    "I believe it too!"


    Many people immediately said that for most people, as long as they can hit more grain, everything else can be behind. Besides, they are worried about toxicity. They can also plant a piece of farmland without pesticide for their own consumption.


    The tall and short Confucian scholars wanted to argue again, but suddenly found that several Mohist children appeared around them. The leader was a one armed middle-aged old man, who was the one armed Uncle Wang in charge of the safety of the ink technology exhibition.


    "Please! You are not welcome in the ink art exhibition." one armed Uncle Wang said coldly.


    "Why? We spent a silver or two to buy one." the tall Confucian student refused.


    "Sorry, all the invitation tickets for the ink technology exhibition are free." one armed Uncle Wang raised his eyebrow and said calmly. His calm eyes made them stand up.


    The people around suddenly burst into laughter. The invitation ticket is the host''s invitation. If it''s a bad guest, the host naturally doesn''t welcome it.


    The tall and short Confucian scholar immediately concluded, so he had to be invited out.


    "When friends come, there is good wine, and when bad people come, there is a spear. As long as they are friends of the Mohist school, the Mohist school will try its best to entertain them. If they are evil guests, the Mohist technology exhibition will not welcome you." Merton said coldly, and couldn''t help scanning the audience.


    Some unscrupulous people suddenly felt a chill in their hearts. The poison of their biggest attack weapon has been cracked by Merton''s fingers. Naturally, they won''t be bored at the moment.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction and said, "pesticide was originally an important play. In order to solve everyone''s doubts, he had to make a fool of himself in advance. Let''s continue to start the second ink technology. In fact, it''s not ink technology, but an achievement to show you."


    Merton reached out and brought out a pot of green plants from the front of the stage to show them in front of the crowd. At the same time, a group of Mohist children appeared among the crowd with pots of plants.


    They were shocked. It was only February 2, and many branches had just turned green and had not sprouted. It was obvious that the plants in Merton''s hands had passed the cold winter.


    "Spinach!" Li Shimin immediately recognized that this was the auspicious spinach Merton gave him.


    The people of Chang''an City remembered that in the ink technology exhibition, Merton spent a lot of money to buy a small bag of seeds. The Persian businessman claimed that he could survive the winter. He couldn''t help but get restless.


    Merton pointed to the spinach that had begun to moss and blossom in his hand and said proudly: "the Mohists solemnly announce that spinach has been successfully planted. Within a few years, spinach will certainly appear on the table of thousands of families in the winter of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Good!" the crowd immediately shouted.


    In a dry and yellow winter, it would be a great enjoyment to eat a mouthful of fresh and tender vegetables. Rich people can also eat pickled vegetables, which ordinary people can''t even eat.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking of the scene of Mohist stealing spinach leaves and sharing the stolen goods. He immediately smiled knowingly and believed that after next year, he wouldn''t have to be so sneaky.


    "It seems that everyone likes to see green plants in winter," Merton said with a smile, and everyone in the stands laughed out embarrassed.


    Merton then said, "maybe some people will say that you are proficient in foreign countries and can naturally find spinach. We live in the Tang Dynasty and can''t go abroad. We don''t have money to attract Western businessmen to send seeds."


    Suddenly, many people turned red, and Merton said all the words in their hearts.


    Merton smiled softly and said, "however, you don''t know that there are plants that can survive the winter in Datang except pine and cypress, but you have never noticed."


    Merton reached out and waved. Behind him, a cloth fell slowly, revealing three kinds of green plants. Even if it was cold in spring, it was still green. Looking at its wide leaves, it was obvious that it had just passed the winter.


    "These are the plants brought by the children of the Mohists from the south of the Yangtze River. One is Holly, the other is Cinnamomum camphora, and the third is Ligustrum lucidum. These three kinds of trees are evergreen all the year round and are very cold resistant. Even in winter, when the snow is vast, they are still green. They are one of the few trees that can survive in the north," Merton said.


    However, when Merton finished, the whole audience was a little cold. Everyone looked at each other and frowned.


    "Maybe you think it''s useless!" Merton shook his head and said, "no, everything in the world has value, but we haven''t found it. You can think about it. In the vast winter, when the snow is covered and everything is withered and yellow, but there is a place full of green, like spring. Will you still think these trees are worthless?"


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, behind Merton, a huge painting fell slowly.


    Under the snow, a village is still green. The straight streets are separated by green belts made of holly. Camphor trees and Ligustrum lucidum leaves are covered with falling snow. Green leaves and snow complement each other.


    Throughout the winter, under the snow, the dazzling green makes people particularly moved.


    "This is the future plan of Mojia village. Thanks to your Majesty''s love, Mojia village has been awarded the first village in the world. Naturally, it will set an example and make the construction of Mojia village perfect." Merton''s voice echoed throughout the audience.


    Everyone took a breath and looked at the idea of a paradise on earth. They couldn''t help showing a trace of longing. The future of Mojia village is really expected.


    Li Shimin looked at the shocking giant painting in front of him and said, "I''d like to see what the Mojia village can look like."


    Mojia village is the benchmark he set up. The greater his achievements, the more he can prove his vision.

 Chapter 477

    The first village in the world


    What is the first village in the world!


    It''s impossible for Merton to take on the responsibility of being the richest in the world. Merton not only wants to make the Mojia village rich in material terms, but also can''t or lack in civilization construction. Otherwise, how can he assume the important task of the first village in the world? Merton is ready to build the Mojia village into a template, a template for the world to follow!


    Merton looked around and knew that there must be some people who think that ordinary people can''t even eat enough. Is it meaningful to make these greening.


    But it may not be appropriate in other places, but not necessarily in Mojia village and Chang''an city.


    After Morton entered Chang''an City, he found that the whole Chang''an city was clean and tidy except Zhuque street. Most of the other streets were covered with loess, and this situation was better only after some trunk roads were built.


    Accustomed to various road greening in later generations, Merton, who was clean and tidy, naturally couldn''t tolerate it. He had already sent someone to the south to transport back some common greening plants in later generations.


    Since he can''t change others, he can only take the initiative. If Merton doesn''t do it at the moment, I''m afraid that after a thousand years, the whole Chinese cities will remain unchanged and covered with loess.


    Among the crowd, Su Luosheng, dressed as a rich man, looked at the future planning map of Mojia village, and his eyes couldn''t help brightening. The place where such a grand scene should appear is Chang''an city.


    "If Chang''an city is like this?" suluosheng couldn''t help falling into a vision. If he could build Chang''an city like this, he would surely have a great career promotion.


    The giant painting was slowly put away, and the people woke up like a dream and smacked their tongues one after another. The Mozi really lived up to the reputation of the black sheep. According to the scale of the painting, it must have cost a lot of money.


    Merton said with a smile: "of course, this is not an overnight thing. At present, the seeds of these plants in Mojia village have been collected and cultivated by Mojia village itself. It doesn''t cost much. It takes only some manpower and time. Mojia village is going to take several years to complete this. At that time, you will not be disappointed."


    Everyone nodded. They naturally believed Merton''s words. Merton had done the most difficult things, let alone planting flowers and plants.


    "Next is the third piece of ink technology. I think it is not inferior to the artificial incubation technology." Merton went directly to the next link without too much explanation. After the real completion of the Mojia village in the future, it is the right way for everyone to see.


    "Comparable to artificial incubation technology!" the people were suddenly surprised and immediately focused.


    At the same time, many Mohist children also appeared in the center of the stand with potted plants for everyone to watch.


    "Or plants?" they were stunned.


    Merton nodded, "yes, this is a seedling, and it is a persimmon seedling."


    "As we all know, persimmons are not suitable for planting. Once transplanted, they are not easy to survive, and many kinds of persimmons are bitter and tasteless." they nodded. Persimmon trees are difficult to plant, and most of them are wild persimmons with large small stones, bitter and tasteless, tasteless to eat, but it''s a pity to abandon. There are very few improved varieties.


    "Only a few improved varieties can be eaten and made into preserved fruit. This is a rare delicacy. For example, Sanyuan''s chicken heart persimmon is a first-class delicacy. At the time of harvest, Chang''an city is snapped up all over the city."


    Everyone immediately smiled. In Chang''an City, who hasn''t heard of Sanyuan Jixin persimmon, especially the preserved fruit made of Jixin persimmon, makes people salivate. In this era of low preservation technology, the preserved fruit made of persimmon is indeed a rare food, and the price remains high, which ordinary people can''t enjoy at all.


    "The persimmon seedling in the beginning is very unique. Its root is an ordinary wild persimmon tree, and its branches are Sanyuan''s chicken heart persimmon branches." Merton''s tone is not high, but it shocked the whole audience like thunder


    "It''s impossible!" Li Shimin exclaimed.


    It is absurd how a sapling can have two kinds of trees.


    Not only Li Shimin didn''t believe it, but also the whole audience couldn''t believe it. This is something unprecedented.


    "This is the latest ink technique of Mohism, grafting technique!" Merton explained.


    "Grafting?" when they heard the word, they couldn''t help looking at Merton strangely.


    "As we all know, Mo has done a lot of research on marriage recently!" Merton said slightly embarrassed.


    "Hahaha!


    The whole audience immediately laughed. It can be said that Merton''s love story is well known all over the city, and Li Shimin suddenly turned black. His face was not good. He looked at Merton with a shy face and couldn''t help biting his teeth.


    "Once, I had a whim. The wild persimmon tree has small and many fruits, but the improved persimmon tree has large but few fruits. If the branches of the improved persimmon tree are transplanted to the trunk of the wild persimmon tree, it would be like a woman marrying over. In this way, we can not only turn this useless wild persimmon tree into an improved persimmon tree, but also make the improved persimmon bear large and many fruits." Merton shouted.


    "Is this method feasible?" the people immediately doubted.


    A fruit merchant got up and questioned, "but once the branches of fruit trees are cut off, they will die. How can they grow on wild persimmon trees?"


    "That requires the self-healing of doctors. Once we are cut, we will heal quickly. However, the tree is the same. We can cut a hole in the trunk of the wild persimmon tree, then sharpen the branches of the chicken heart persimmon tree, bind the two injured surfaces together, and the tree will grow naturally together. This is the core of the grafting technology." Merton has no privacy, Make it public without reservation.


    "The medical science of self-healing?" they suddenly realized.


    "It''s said that in Mo hospital, even if you open your belly, you can live as long as you sew it together, let alone cut a hole."


    "In this way, grafting technology is indeed feasible!"


    "I didn''t expect it to be so simple!"


    "Simple, in my opinion, it''s a wonderful work! If it weren''t for the Mohist family''s practice of hundred schools of thought, which doctor in the world would plant fruit."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The whole audience immediately talked about it. Obviously, Merton''s fruit tree grafting theory was quickly accepted by everyone. The principle of this matter is very simple. Obviously, this is a feasible way.


    "Grafting?" Li Shimin looked at the healed junction on a potted plant in front of him, and his face slowed slightly.


    Merton had already prepared for this. He prepared the grafted persimmon seedlings in Li Shimin''s box in advance. At the moment, the chicken heart persimmon seedlings have begun to turn green. It is obvious that the grafting has been successful.


    "Mohou is a great talent, so the people all over the world can have a good mouth?" pound sighed.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. What has been bothering the people is that good persimmon trees are very difficult to transplant, and the number is rare. On the contrary, wild persimmon trees are everywhere.


    As soon as the grafting technology appears, a tree has many branches. As long as there is a well bred persimmon tree, it will certainly improve all the wild persimmon trees into good persimmons over time. In this way, the yield of preserved fruits will increase sharply. It can be said that the value of this technology is inestimable.


    However, Merton did not end, but continued: "in addition, we can also connect pears to Du pears and Qiuzi pears; walnuts to Walnut catalpa and watermelon to winter melon. According to the following inference, as long as they are melons and fruits of the same variety, they can be grafted successfully."


    For a moment, the whole audience''s breathing suddenly became heavy.


    Mojiazi really didn''t exaggerate. Grafting technology is no less than artificial incubation technology. One is for birds and the other is for melons and fruits. They can breed on a large scale.


    "The Mohist school is still the Mohist school. It is the people all over the world."


    They all lamented that once the grafting ink technology was developed, countless people in the world would certainly benefit from it. This is the consistent style of Mohism.

 Chapter 478

    "Useful learning!"


    There was a word in everyone''s mind. Mohist insisted on making Mohist theory of usefulness and advocating the study of usefulness, which had long been well known by everyone.


    This ink art exhibition only shows three, which is enough to benefit countless people in the whole Tang Dynasty. What is not a useful learning?


    Many Confucian scholars frowned. At that time, Mozi once satirized Confucianism as useless. In the end, Confucianism grew stronger and stronger, while Mohism gradually disappeared. Finally, Confucianism smiled to the end.


    However, the Mohist school was born, leading the Mohist school to rise again and give full play to the useful learning. Even a group of Confucian scholars have to admit that the useful learning of Mohist school is really amazing.


    "Some people may ask why the Mohists are so enthusiastic about this. The farmers are farmers and the Mohists are workers. The rise of the farmers and the prosperity of the farmers are the guarantee for the existence of the Mohists. The Mohists develop the Mohist technology so that the farmers can fight more grain and feed more people. The Mohists do not produce grain and naturally rely on the farmers'' grain. Second, the farmers are rich and naturally have the money to buy Mohist products Mutual support and common development is a win-win situation, "Merton explained.


    Suddenly, the Win-win Theory of Mohism has long been well known. As Merton said, the two countries are indeed win-win.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. The importance of agriculture is self-evident. Merton was very satisfied that he could recognize this.


    "If you are poor, you will benefit the world. Today''s Mojia village is rich. Although Mo doesn''t dare to say that he can help the world, he also has the heart to help the world. Today''s Mojia village just gets rich first, and the rich first drives the rich later. Tomorrow''s Mojia magazine will announce this grafting technology to the world. People will widely plant melons and fruits in this way. In this way, the villagers will have a sum of income, and our Datang will no longer have melons Lack of fruit, "Morton said proudly.


    "Good!"


    The people in the stands immediately applauded. Last year, Mojia village announced the secret skills of live fish. The artificial incubation technology has benefited countless people in Datang. Now the grafting technology comparable to the artificial incubation technology appears, and the beneficiary population will double again.


    How much can one person do? Merton spread the grafting technology and gathered the strength of everyone. Before long, the Tang Dynasty will be full of fruits and melons, which even ordinary people can afford.


    "Getting rich first drives getting rich later?" Li Shimin carefully tasted this sentence. Although Merton sometimes hated him, he never let him down. With this intention alone, Li Shimin knew that his move would have an excess return.


    "Grafting technology is the result of the cooperation between Mohism and farmers, not unique to Mohism, and the real ink technology of Mohism is power and light." Merton said frankly.


    The crowd could not help nodding. Merton was indeed a true character and did not take the credit alone.


    For power and light, what happened in last year''s ink technology exhibition has long been known to everyone. Qin Huaiyu pulled up a huge tripod with one person''s strength, which caused a sensation in the whole audience. In addition, they have long enjoyed talking about the wonderful imaging of small holes.


    "Power is the core of ink technology. The power of one person is only a hundred kilograms, while the power of machinery can be infinite. If one person controls the Mohist machinery to carry a thousand kilograms, it is enough to surpass ten people."


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, another curtain fell.


    "A thousand catties huge tripod!" people exclaimed one after another when they saw the items.


    This tripod is naturally known. This is the kilo tripod displayed last year. I didn''t expect Merton to transport it again.


    "Although the giant tripod is heavy, it is as light as a plaything in the hands of the Mohists. This is a hanging arm produced by the Mohists. It takes a steel rope as a rope, and one person can easily lift a thousand catties." Merton commanded a Mohist child to easily lift the thousand catties giant tripod with the hanging arm, twist the turntable, and turn the thousand catties giant tripod around in front of the people in the stands, which made the people cry, Then it was placed in front of the paved brick road in front of the grandstand.


    "You must have seen the boom in other places, but today''s protagonist is not him, but another jack with the same strength." Merton stretched out his hand and pulled, and the common carrier truck in the future appeared in front of everyone.


    After Merton''s on-demand broadcast, Zhang Mu, the eldest son of Lao Zhang tou, finally made the first truck equipped with a jack before the ink technology exhibition.


    "Jack?"


    In an instant, everyone focused on Merton''s hand.


    Merton nodded. "The boom is to lift the giant tripod, which is the pulling force, and the jack is to jack up the kilogram giant tripod, which is the lifting force."


    As Merton explained, he personally pulled the cart to the Qianjin giant tripod on the brick road, forked the cart into the bottom of the giant tripod and shook the pull rod.


    "The huge tripod has been lifted up!" exclaimed a sharp eyed man.


    Under the operation of Merton, the tripod left the ground slowly. After tax rises higher and higher, it turns out that it is an inch high in the end.


    Merton nodded. Although the jack made of Zhang Mu can''t compare with later generations, it is also valuable.


    "Normally, if you want to move this tripod, you need at least ten people. Today, Mo can move a huge tripod with one person."


    Under the attention of the crowd, Merton pulled up the truck with all his strength and walked back and forth twice in front of the audience along the paved brick road in front of the grandstand.


    When I saw a young man with a weak crown shaking back and forth in front of him with a thousand jin tripod in one hand, everyone was shocked and couldn''t help growing up.


    "Love now!"


    Li Shimin snorted coldly and looked at Merton who shocked the audience.


    "No wonder Mojia village is so rich that one person can work for ten people." they smacked their tongue.


    "This is the power of ink technology. One person''s power is better than ten people." Merton operated the truck in his hand and put the kilo tripod on the ground intact.


    "It''s worth the trip!" they sighed.


    People can''t help but think that last year, Qin Huaiyu picked up the giant tripod with one hand, and this year''s ink technology exhibition saw mojiazi running back and forth with one hand holding a thousand jin giant tripod.


    Morton felt a sweat and couldn''t help remembering Qin Huaiyu''s three bad friends. If they hadn''t entered the army, I''m afraid they would rush to do all the things in the limelight, and he wouldn''t have to end up in person.


    Many people can''t help but get a flash in their eyes. The boom and the carrier are a perfect match. One lifts heavy objects and the other carries heavy objects. I don''t know how many times the efficiency can be improved.


    Laymen, however, saw that mojiazi''s single hand pull of the giant tripod was enough to return the ticket, while insiders saw the great value. Once this thing came out, there were countless places needed by the station, wharf and warehouse.


    "One way of strength is that his knowledge is endless and profound. He is poor all his life and can''t get started. Now the Mohist School''s research on it is just a scratch. I believe that in the future, with the development of Mohist school, there will be more powerful machinery dedicated to the Tang Dynasty." Merton glanced covertly at Li Shimin''s box and said with passion.

 Chapter 479

    "Ink skill!" everyone took a deep breath.


    This is the strength of ink technology. The emergence of a new ink technology directly brought earth shaking changes to Datang and had a great impact on the whole industry.


    Nowadays, it is not only the Tang Dynasty that protects the Mohist school, but the Mohist school is pushing the Tang Dynasty forward. It is not the people of Chang''an City who try their best to enter the ink technology exhibition to see the excitement, but if they miss the ink technology exhibition, they may lose their first opportunity and be defeated.


    On the contrary, if I can seize the opportunity in the ink technology exhibition, I will be able to make a lot of money. For a moment, the sharp people present have seen too many business opportunities.


    Acting as a pesticide sprayer, this is a must for farmers. If you master the grafting technology and grow fruits and vegetables, you can sit under the tree every year. If you get involved in the wharf station business and use Mohist machinery, you will be able to save manpower, greatly improve the efficiency and take pride in your peers.


    Step by step, step by step, the ink technology exhibition has given people too many surprises.


    "Mechanics is the core of Mohism. In addition, optics also gives Mo a great surprise." Merton reached out and put a pair of glasses on his eyes.


    "Myopia!"


    "Reading glasses!"


    The crowd shouted in the stands.


    "Oh! It seems that everyone already knows!" Merton said helplessly.


    The crowd suddenly chuckled.


    "Then I''ll tell you something you don''t know. As we all know, presbyopic glasses can enable the elderly to regain their eyesight. I don''t know that presbyopic glasses have another wonderful use in addition," Merton said.


    Many people were immediately curious. The price of reading glasses was not high. Now most of the elderly in Chang''an City have been equipped with a pair. Many old people present wore reading glasses.


    "This is just a small ink technique for everyone''s enjoyment. You can pick up your reading glasses, face the sun, and put the back of your hand behind you." Merton said.


    "Oh!"


    At present, many old people are childlike and follow Merton''s instructions.


    In the box, the slanting sunlight just came in. Li Shimin looked at the ground with a magnifying glass specially prepared by Merton. He saw an unusually bright light spot on the ground.


    "Ah! It hurts!"


    Pound suddenly exclaimed, quickly put down his reading glasses and blew on the back of his hand.


    "You old bastard, but you fell into Merton''s plan!" Li Shimin laughed.


    Pound suddenly burst of Hao Ran: "the old minister didn''t check for a moment. Who could have thought that this light spot was so hot."


    At the moment, many people also find that the temperature rises greatly under the light spot for a long time. If they don''t check it for a while, they suddenly shout pain,


    In the crowd, Quan Wanji, dressed as an ordinary man, covered the back of his hand, looked at Merton with hatred and said, "great treachery, disrespect for the old."


    "What''s the matter? It''s just a harmless joke!" an old man nearby looked at Quan Wanji unhappily. In his opinion, it''s nothing, but very fun. After talking, he picked up his reading glasses and looked at the bright light spot curiously.


    Merton chuckled: "I believe you have learned the wonderful use of reading glasses. You feel hot after only taking photos for a short time. What if it''s exposure for a long time?"


    Merton picked up a magnifying glass of the same type as Li Shimin and irradiated a brazier with soft straw five steps away. Within a while, wisps of green smoke came out of the brazier, and then a flame came up and quickly ignited the whole brazier.


    "Ignition in the air!"


    "Magic!"


    The crowd looked at the flames and exclaimed.


    Merton used only a magnifying glass to ignite objects in full view of the public.


    In the box, Li Shimin stared at the flames from the brazier in front of him. Merton also left a set of the same tools for him in the box. If Li Shimin didn''t light the flame himself according to Merton''s steps, I''m afraid he would shout magic.


    "What''s going on?" Quan Wanji touched the reading glasses on his eyes and was shocked. He couldn''t understand that the glasses he often wore had such a function.


    "Is it that light spot?" weisi''an wondered.


    Quan Wan Gideon suddenly.


    "Yes, it is that light spot that ignites the flame. Light is a common thing for people. It is right around us. Light can bring temperature to the earth, let our eyes see things clearly, and make plants grow rapidly." Merton said emotionally.


    The people in the stands nodded slowly. The role of light is too great, but it has never been ignored.


    "Mohists have been studying the way of light and shadow. In the first ink technology exhibition, I said that if you fork a fish, you must fork the bottom of the fish. I''m afraid many brothers have tried it, and chopsticks are broken in the water in a bowl. This is the refraction of the sun." Merton asked around.


    "Refraction!" the crowd nodded.


    "The same is true for reading glasses this time, but reading glasses refract the sunlight in the whole lens range to one point. In this way, the temperature of the sunlight increases several times, so that the flame can be ignited." Merton explained the principles one by one, and the people suddenly realized the truth.


    "In the way of light and shadow, Mohism is unique in the world!" pound sighed,


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. This is the difference of Mohism. Other hundred schools know its nature and don''t ask for its reason. However, Mohism directly inquires into the bottom and reveals its secrets one by one. If it were replaced by witches and gods, I''m afraid it would have been playing tricks and cheating people of money.


    "Of course, in addition to refraction, the sun can also reflect. Merton casually pulled out a copper mirror and put it in the sun. Merton turned the copper mirror a little, and suddenly a strong light was reflected to the whole audience.


    "Mojiazi!"


    "Oh, my eyes!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd immediately covered their eyes and exclaimed.


    "Mo boy, you wait!"


    Pound also covered his eyes and said with hatred. He suddenly thought that Li Shimin was still here and hurried back.


    "Emperor, are you not dead?"


    "Of course I''m fine!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    I don''t know when Li Shimin has put on a pair of sunglasses and sat there happily. The dazzling sunshine has no influence on him at all.


    "Ha ha! Boy, I''m not malicious. I''m kidding, but if you irradiate the sun for a long time, it will cause blindness and visual impairment. Fortunately, the Mohist school has recently developed a new type of eyes, called sunglasses!" Merton said, took out a pair of sunglasses from his arms and put them on his eyes. With a slight gesture, a Mohist child immediately took a copper mirror and reflected the sun on Merton''s face.


    "You see, as long as you wear sunglasses, you won''t be afraid of the dazzling sun any more." Merton took sunglasses and moved freely under the double dazzling sun.


    "Shit, you stabbed us with the sun just to advertise?" the people in the stands looked at Merton''s sunglasses and immediately complained.

 Chapter 480

    "Sao Bao!" said wesan, looking at Merton and staring at the dark glasses.


    However, many people still move freely when they see Merton against the dazzling sun. Regardless of the purpose of sunglasses to block the sun, wearing sunglasses alone seems cool.


    "The old wear presbyopic glasses, the nearsighted wear close-up mirrors, and the sighted wear sunglasses. The Mohists don''t miss any chance to make money! Profiteers!" Quan Wanji said with the same hatred.


    "Such means are worthy of being the God of wealth of Chang''an city!" the businessmen present smacked their tongues one after another. The business of the Mexican family is really crazy, but it makes all the businessmen worship as gods.


    After Merton finished a wave of advertisements, he was satisfied and motioned to the children of the Mohists to put back the bronze glasses and take off the sunglasses at the same time.


    "After talking about the refraction of light, let''s talk about the color of light. People all say that light is white. Is it true, but I don''t think so?" Merton asked in a loud voice.


    The people immediately looked at each other and wondered. Now most of them are in the sun, but they clearly looked at the white sun shining on us, and the Mexican family unexpectedly said that the color of the sun is not white.


    "Hum! The sun is not white, is it still black like the Mohist school! This time, I''ll see how the Mohist family can justify itself?" Quan Wanji looked at Merton''s angry way. In his opinion, the Mohist family can''t confuse black and white in full view of the public.


    Merton reached out to the East and said, "as we all know, when rising from the East, the sun is often red. At noon, the sun is white and dazzling. At sunset, the sun dyed the sunset red. Can the sun change its color back and forth in one day?"


    People suddenly changed their faces and their bottom line wavered slightly.


    "Interesting!" Li Shimin''s comfortable expression suddenly disappeared. If he was interested, he watched Merton perform.


    "Some time ago, Mo happened to be lucky to get in touch with the secret printing and dyeing skills of Taoism and found a very interesting thing." Merton said.


    When Wei Si settled down, he clenched his teeth and was filled with resentment. The Mo family just used the means of the waidan sect to give the Wei family a fatal blow, so that the whole Wei family lost its pillar industry and was scolded by his father.


    "There is no white in the world, but only the three primary colors of red, yellow and green, and any color in the world can be mixed with these three colors," Merton said.


    "Nothing is white!"


    In an instant, the whole audience was shocked, and they looked at the sunlight shining on their bodies, which immediately seemed to be struck by lightning.


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, a group of Mohist children suddenly appeared in front of the crowd, lifting buckets of red, yellow and blue pigments.


    "Yellow and cyan can make green."


    Under the command of Merton, the children of the Mohists mixed the yellow and cyan pigments in public and poured them on a huge white paper. It was really green!


    "When green is added with blue and red, it becomes white." under the command of Merton, the Mohist children evenly mixed the three pigments, and all the colors disappeared in an instant, leaving only white.


    "Could it be that the sunshine we see is a mixture of green, blue and red." the people couldn''t believe that there were other colors in the white sunshine shining on their bodies.


    Quan Wanji couldn''t help but open his eyes. If he had told him that the sunlight was not white, he would have thought he was crazy, but Merton himself reconciled white, which was irrefutable, but he had to be convinced.


    "Yes! White is indeed reconciled." Wei Si''an said in a deep voice to Quan Wanji.


    He once went to Wei''s printing and dyeing workshop, witnessed the craftsmen mixing various colors, and had a deeper understanding of Merton''s words.


    Quan Wan Gideon was devastated and hit hard.


    In the box, Li Shimin was like a childlike child, like a curious baby. He took several paint buckets and kept blending out all kinds of colors according to the pigment table left by Merton. Each one was excited.


    Pound waited on and looked at Li Shimin''s Long Yan Dayue. He felt that he had never been so relaxed and happy since Li Shimin ascended the throne!


    "Your eyes will deceive you, but your ink skills won''t. next, let me reveal the secret, how many colors the sun has!" with Merton''s voice.


    A huge curtain slowly passed over the venue from the west, and everyone sighed. If so, every Mexican family would always block the sun when they showed the mystery of light and shadow.


    People can''t help but look forward to it. They haven''t been disappointed by Merton''s mystery of light and shadow.


    As usual, there was a vacancy in the curtain, and a beam of sunshine knocked on Merton, as if covered with a mysterious halo.


    Merton held a huge prism, fixed it on the support and placed it in the sun. In an instant, a wonderful scene appeared in the whole venue, and a colorful light band appeared on a huge white board.


    "It''s true!"


    "Sunshine is really made up of many colors!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Almost everyone exclaimed that no one thought that the sun really had so many colors.


    "Red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple! This is the real color of the sun!" Merton''s voice rang through the audience in the dark.


    In the box, even Li Shimin stared at the colorful colors refracted by a ray of sunlight. What Merton did today can be said to directly subvert everyone''s three outlooks.


    "Do you think this colorful color is familiar?" Murton stirred the prism slightly in the dark, and the colorful light band moved with it.


    "Rainbow!" Li Shimin blurted out as his eyes brightened.


    People suddenly felt bright in their hearts. Isn''t the halo in front of them like the rainbow after the rain!


    "The book of mountains and seas says, ''the rainbow is in its north, with two songs each.'' the ancients believed that the rainbow was a double headed dragon. The appearance of the rainbow heralded uncertainty and disaster. The book of songs said that" the rainbow is in the East, and no one dares to point it ". People also said that it is said that the rainbow can enter streams to drink water. Even some ancients worried that too much rainbow drinking water would dry up rivers and lead to drought year after year.


    Today''s Mohist School corrects the name of rainbow. The real rainbow is just the refraction of sunlight. It is a common natural phenomenon, not a disaster. Next is the finale of today''s ink technology exhibition, ink technology, artificial rainbow! "


    With Merton''s voice falling. The hangings over the venue slowly retreated, but in the east of the ink technology exhibition, a group of Mozi children took water dragon cars and sprayed water mist into the air.


    However, under the puzzled eyes of the people, an arched rainbow slowly appeared in front of the people.


    "Rainbow!"


    "It can really be made!"


    "Spraying some water mist can make a rainbow. No wonder rainbows appear by the water or after the rain?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly the whole audience was a sensation, and they couldn''t believe it. They looked at the scene in front of them. Li Shimin rushed to the box and stared at the colorful in the air.


    Merton smiled. The reason why he planned to hold the ink technology exhibition in the afternoon was to wait for the moment. At the moment, the sun just slanted, which was the best time to form a rainbow.


    "Amazing!"


    Everyone looked at this magnificent scene and was amazed.

 Chapter 481

    "What the hell is going on?"


    Li Shimin''s face stared at the rainbow in front of him, without a trace of joy.


    Since Dong Zhongshu''s exclusive respect for Confucianism, Confucianism pursues the induction between heaven and man. Once there is a vision of heaven and earth, it is the king who has done something wrong. To reflect on his actions, the rainbow is among the induction between heaven and man.


    But who could have thought that the rainbow was just some refracted light that could be made, which simply subverted everyone''s imagination.


    "Mohists are a group of madmen!" Quan Wanji muttered with lax eyes. Ordinary people pursue food and clothing all their life. They only pay attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation. If they are more ambitious, they will pursue official titles and worship knights. Who will study the visions of heaven and earth when they are full.


    No matter what Li Shimin and the Confucian people think, the ordinary people present are almost crazy.


    Ordinary people can only see the rainbow a few times in their life. More people just hear about it and don''t see it with their own eyes. However, when the rainbow appears in front of them, they can''t help being conquered by its beauty.


    "Red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple! It''s really colorful."


    "Is it true that a rainbow is not a rainbow beast, but a refraction of sunlight?"


    "So the rainbow is not a disaster. We were all cheated!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When they saw that the Mohists kept spraying water mist with water dragons, they suddenly realized the Tao.


    "Yes! A rainbow is not a rainbow beast. It''s just an ordinary natural phenomenon. You can think about it. Rainbows usually appear after rain or next to waterfalls. These are moments when water vapor is very heavy. Sunlight refracts colorful colors through countless small water mist, which is the reason for the emergence of rainbows," Merton explained.


    If it had been before, people must have been skeptical about this statement, but before that, Merton directly used a prism to refract the colorful color of the sun. Then, a group of Mohist children could spray water mist to produce a rainbow, and they couldn''t help but believe it.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, the children of the Mohists stopped their water dragons one after another, lacking the supplement of water mist. Under the direct sunlight, the rainbow slowly dissipated in the air.


    "Disappeared!" the crowd was suddenly disappointed.


    Merton said, "there are no more than three conditions for the emergence of a rainbow. One is strong sunlight, the other is sufficient water vapor, and the third is the appropriate angle. If you are grateful, the Mohists create a rainbow for you every day."


    "Can you make a rainbow every day?" this time, no one thought Merton was talking big. However, although they believed Merton''s theory intellectually, they could not accept that the rainbow they had been panicking about was false.


    "Minggui!"


    In the box, Li Shimin looked at the Disappearing Rainbow and suddenly spit out two words.


    Pound looked at Li Shimin puzzled.


    "Minggui is one of the Mohist theories. Mohists know ghosts but don''t believe in ghosts. Mozi said: if you want to prosper the benefits of the world and eliminate the harm of the world, you must distinguish the existence of ghosts and gods. Now, the theory of ghosts and gods that even Mohist saints can''t prove has been conquered by Mohists." Li Shimin took a deep breath.


    Pound nodded and thought of the feudal superstition reported in Mo magazine.


    On the stage, Merton looked around and said in a deep voice, "Ming ghosts are Mohist ideas. It is unknown whether there are ghosts and gods in the world,


    People often interpret incomprehensible natural phenomena as the theory of ghosts and gods. The means of witches and gods reported by Ink magazine have proved that they are not all normal phenomena, and so is the rainbow, but an uncommon natural phenomenon. "


    "This is ink technology!"


    In the stands, the public losers were dejected one by one. They thought they would be able to defeat Mohism in the future, but now it seems that the gap between public losers and Mohism is really a world apart.


    "So it seems that my public loser will always be under the Mohist school!" the public loser chagrined.


    Gongshu Hong said in a deep voice: "knowing shame and then courage, Mohism can dare to be the first in the world. As long as we learn Mohism secretly and stand firm first, there is no chance to surpass in the future."


    "What my father said!" Gong Shuhao said confidently. Even if he came to see the ink technology exhibition, he was still playing with a lock in his hand. According to its shape, the lock was about to take shape.


    "Mojiazi, the lock you want is about to succeed." gongshuhao looked at Merton on the stage and said with confidence. One day, he will stand in front of the stage like mojiazi and attract the attention of the public.


    "Although the rainbow is rare, many people can still see it as long as you pay attention, but there is a once-in-a-century grand scene next. Please don''t miss it." Merton raised his voice and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "On the first day of May, please share the once-in-a-century wonder, the dog eats the sun." Merton waved his big hand and pointed to the sun in the sky.


    As Merton''s voice ended, the whole venue was dead silent, and there was a sound of needle dropping.


    "Tiangou eats the day!"


    This voice kept echoing in everyone''s mind. In this era, the dog eclipse has an extremely special meaning. Each dog eclipse represents various omens. The emperor is called the son of heaven, which means that he is sent by heaven to manage the people. Since heaven represents the emperor''s father, it will warn his agent on earth, the emperor, through the solar eclipse and lunar eclipse, Express what he did wrong, what he should be careful about, etc.


    "Ha ha! Is there anything wrong with me?" Li Shimin sneered.


    As an emperor, his power is supreme, but once these natural phenomena occur, there will be a group of ministers to advise immediately, and even he has to give in.


    However, everyone suddenly realized a problem, that is, why mojiazi could know in advance that there would be a solar eclipse in early May.


    "Mo Jiazi, don''t talk nonsense. The dog eating the sun is a warning from heaven. How can a common man spy on the will of heaven?" Quan Wanji couldn''t stand it any longer and suddenly got up and scolded.


    "Oh! It''s Lord Quan!" Merton couldn''t help smiling at Quan Wanji.


    "Quan Wanji?"


    People''s eyes couldn''t help but ponder around Merton and Quan Wanji. The news on chaotang had already spread all over Chang''an city. Everyone knew that Quan Wanji and mojiazi were very difficult to deal with, but they didn''t expect Quan Wanji to appear at the ink technology exhibition and openly questioned Merton.


    Quan Wanji''s face was embarrassed. As a Confucian, he naturally knew that the reason why Confucianism could respect Confucianism alone was the induction between heaven and man.


    Whenever there are eclipses, earthquakes, natural and man-made disasters in the sky, it will be regarded as a warning from heaven. However, the mojiazi has overcome drought, locust and flood one after another. After all, these three disasters are related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood, and the Confucianism recognized them by holding its nose. But this time, the mojiazi did not leave his hand, and even touched the vital gate of Confucianism restricting imperial power - Tiangou eating the sun.

 Chapter 482

    Confucianism claims that heaven and man are connected, monarchy is granted by God, and heaven is high. How to instruct the world can only be warned through various disasters.


    If the Mohists, like an artificial rainbow, were to uncover the secret of the heavenly dog eating the sun, I''m afraid the Heavenly Man induction claimed by Confucianism would become a joke. This is also the reason why Quan Wanji is still strong even though he knows that the occasion is wrong.


    "When the heavenly dog eats the sun, it is dark, the stars twinkle, and the day and night are reversed. The people are frightened. They think that the heavenly dog eats the day, and they beat gongs and drums to drive away the heavenly dog. This is the reason why the heavenly dog eats the day." Merton said.


    "This is a warning from heaven, but it''s just for my subjects to reflect on themselves. Why not?" Quan Wanji argued.


    Merton said coldly, "God warns? In all dynasties, when disasters happen, hundreds of officials in the court shake. In the Han Dynasty, locusts cross the border, Sikong goes, the Earth Dragon turns over, the Taiwei is removed, Tiangou eats the sun, and the prime minister is dismissed. Now our Tang Dynasty has repeatedly defeated floods, droughts and locusts. Now it seems that those Sikong and Sima who have been removed are so innocent." Merton sneered on his face.


    "It''s the fatuous Hall of the Western Han Dynasty. Now the son of heaven Shengming will not have such a ridiculous thing." Quan Wanji flattered quietly.


    "If there is a dog eating day on the first day of May, what do adults Quan think is the reason? Is it because God is dissatisfied with my Datang?" Merton raised his eyebrows and asked.


    Quan Wanji sneered and didn''t take the lead: "let alone that there will be no solar eclipse in early May. Even if there is a solar eclipse, it''s not just to change if there is one or not."


    "What if an eclipse is a natural phenomenon like a rainbow?" pursued Merton.


    Quan Wanji immediately sniffed and said, "if you can make a solar eclipse in public, I will see you retreat in the future."


    Merton shook his head and said: "Naturally, I can''t create a solar eclipse, but if there is light, it will be bright, and if there is no light, it will be dark. When Tengu eats the moon, the sky is dark, the stars appear, and the day and night are reversed. However, in Mo''s opinion, the reason why the night comes is that it also falls into Yu Valley and is blocked by 100000 mountains in the West. Similarly, the reason why Tengu eats the moon is that the day and night are reversed is also because The sun is blocked. "


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, the curtain that had just faded rose slowly again. This time, the curtain step only covered half of the venue. Half of the entire venue was in the sun, and the other half was in the shadow. Even in some dark corners, it was very dark, which was almost the same as the scene of the night.


    Li Shimin looked at the half bright and half dark venue. He couldn''t help moving and vaguely grasped something.


    As soon as Merton took a step, he crossed the junction of light and darkness. From the shadow to the sun, he proudly said: "with light and shadow, Mohism dares to say the second, and no one dares to say the first in the world."


    Merton''s words are justified, because in the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid there is no second school to study optics except Mohism. Moreover, Merton''s small hole imaging, reading glasses, myopia glasses, sunglasses and artificial rainbows have attracted the attention of the world. Not to mention ordinary people, even Quan Wanji can''t deny this.


    "The day is as dark as night when the dog eats the day. I wonder if Lord Quan has seen the record of the dog eating the day. Once the dog eating the day occurs, the night will cover thousands of miles from east to west, but only 200 miles from north to south. In other places, the day is the same. Is it because the dog eating the day did not engulf the sun in other places, or is it that there is not one sun shining on the north and south of the river?" Merton asked repeatedly.


    "Ah!" Quan wanjiton was sweating. This was the biggest loophole in Tiangou''s eclipse of the sun. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Mohist Zi again.


    "This is just your guess. It''s unpredictable. How can you guess God!" Quan Wanji insisted.


    However, they found how powerless Quan Wanji''s words were. With Merton''s demonstration, the people present had long been convinced. At least the Tiangou eclipse day is only 200 miles north and south, and the rest of the day is the same, which has broken the myth of Tiangou eclipse day.


    Li Shimin was also shocked and his eyes suddenly lit up. The scope of the solar eclipse was limited. There was a solar eclipse in the Yellow River Basin. Although a partial solar eclipse could be seen in the south of the Yangtze River, the day was the same as before. If it was a Tengu eclipse, it shouldn''t be all night. This phenomenon is very simple, but countless people ignored it. Now, after Merton''s advice, everyone suddenly became angry Seton Kai was deeply suspicious of the dog''s eclipse,


    "That''s because God is warning in this place!" Quan Wanji argued.


    Merton shook his head and said, "from the Mohist point of view, the so-called Tiangou eclipse of the sun is probably just a vision of heaven and earth that will occur at a specific time. It is not a warning of Tiangou eclipse of the sun and heaven falling."


    "Hiss!"


    Everyone took a breath. Merton''s conjecture was not bold and unimaginable, but looking at the half dark and half sunny venue, all the people were convinced.


    "It''s really arrogant. It''s very rare for Tiangou to eat the sun. How did you learn from Mojia Zi? Could it be that you can communicate with the gods and know in advance that there will be a solar eclipse in early May? I''m afraid it''s just your guess!" Quan Wanji Leng snorted.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is indeed Mo''s guess. However, when Mo looked through the books, he found an extremely interesting thing."


    Quan wanjiton had a bad feeling. The Mo family thought it was interesting. For him, it might not be interesting.


    "According to the textual research, the earliest record of solar eclipse in the book of Songs - Yin Zheng chapter was in the Xia Dynasty, about 2000 years before the Tang Dynasty There are also records of solar eclipses: at the turn of October, the new moon Xinmao, and the sun has eclipses. Since the Han Dynasty, almost all solar eclipses have been recorded in historical books. If you are familiar with historical books, you can find a very interesting phenomenon, that is, all Tiangou eclipses occur before and after the new moon, that is, around the first day of each month. "Merton smiled.


    "If so!"


    In the box, Li Shimin looked at many historical books in front of him and frantically read the records of the solar eclipse. He surprisingly found that all the solar eclipses were around the new moon.


    "What does this mean?" Quan Wanji said in horror in his voice. He was a learned man. Naturally, he knew that what Merton said was true.


    "This really doesn''t mean anything. If we rearrange all the time and places of solar eclipses in the past two thousand years, you will find a more interesting phenomenon. The time and place of Tiangou eclipses appear periodically, that is, the times of Tiangou eclipses in Datang are the same every other period of time. That is to say, no matter what Whether the emperor is in power, natural disasters continue, and the people are unable to make a living, or whether the Emperor Ming is alive, the weather is good, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the solar eclipses occur in regular cycles. "Merton broke a shocking news.


    Suddenly, the whole audience was shocked.

 Chapter 483

    "The solar eclipse happens regularly?" Li Shimin immediately looked embarrassed. For ordinary people, it''s enough to beat the gongs and drums for a while. However, it''s not the case for the emperor. The Tiangou eclipse is considered that the emperor angered heaven in some places, which attracted heaven''s wrath and reduced heaven''s punishment.


    "Your Majesty, please look!" pound handed Li Shimin a printed paper, which recorded all the historical records of solar eclipses since the Han Dynasty.


    "So the number of solar eclipses in China is the same every hundred years?" Li Shimin looked at a series of regular numbers and said with embarrassment. If so, I''m afraid that Tiangou''s solar eclipse is the biggest lie in the world.


    "It''s not a hundred years, but every fifty-three years," pound said bitterly, looking at Merton''s solar eclipse schedule.


    "I''m afraid this is the truth of Tiangou eclipse!"


    Li Shimin immediately took a deep breath and looked at the solar eclipse cycles. His heart was full of five flavors. In this way, the emperors of all dynasties were greatly wronged. They even reflected on some unnecessary charges.


    meanwhile.


    In the ink technology exhibition, the children of Mohism distributed the printed solar eclipse schedule to the people in the stands.


    "How is this possible?" people looked at the same number of eclipses in each period summarized by Merton and dared not set the channel.


    "It''s true or false. You can go back and check the history books. It''s impossible for Mo to lie in this regard." Merton said proudly.


    Watching Merton record the time of the solar eclipse, from that historical book, all set out the schedule of the solar eclipse one by one, all people were immediately determined. I''m afraid what Merton said is the truth.


    The so-called Tengu eclipse is not a warning from heaven, but a unique astronomical phenomenon. Even the saying of Tengu eclipse is wrong.


    Quan Wanji looked at the solar eclipse schedule in his hand and sat there with a gloomy face. He counted it many times from beginning to end. The more he counted, the paler his face became. Even if he was stubborn, he had to admit that the statement of Tiangou eclipsing the sun simply couldn''t stand in front of Merton''s strong evidence.


    "Revenge, this must be the Revenge of Mohist school!" Quan Wanji said angrily in his heart.


    The whole Chang''an city knows that the Mohist family is a catfish with sharp teeth and sharp mouth. It usually seems harmless. If you are offended, you will bite back. When people feel pain, the previous Taiyuan Wang family and Wei family are clear examples. This time, it''s the turn of Confucianism, which directly hits the lifeline of the induction of Mohist people.


    Merton''s heart was cold. If Confucianism attacked him, it was just a dispute of theories. However, these Confucian scholars even attacked Princess Changle, which violated Merton''s scale. How can they not retaliate.


    "This boy!" Li Shimin felt a little comforted when he was shocked.


    "In fact, it''s more than a dog eclipse of the sun, even the dog eclipse of the moon. Even if you study these periods in depth, you can infer that the closest solar eclipse to Datang will be on the first day of may three months later." Merton said confidently.


    This time, there was silence and no one refuted.


    "Mohist ink skills are so terrible." the people sighed in their hearts.


    "As like as two peas," Shen Hongcai looked at the solar eclipse schedule in his hand, showing a strong expression. Just a moment later, he calculated the same answer as that of Merton. He could be nothing difficult to do, even if he gave him more time. The second and third solar eclipses were all right.


    "Everything in the world can deceive you, but only arithmetic can''t!" Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking of Merton''s famous saying. Who could have thought that all the answers would be hidden in these cold numbers.


    "Arithmetic!"


    Quan Wanji only felt that he had difficulty breathing. He knew that Confucianism had made a serious mistake and ignored a great knowledge of mathematics. Confucianism in the pre-Qin period required students to master six basic talents, etiquette, music, shooting and imperial books.


    One of them is numeracy, and today''s Confucianism will almost devote all its efforts to studying ritual books and abandon all other knowledge. Now it finally eats its own evil fruit.


    Ordinary people suddenly realized that in terms of arithmetic, mojiazi was the world''s leading mathematician, and also trained hundreds of schools. I''m afraid only mojiazi can find the secret of Tiangou eating the sun!


    "Ladies and gentlemen, we will wait and see whether what Mo said is true or not on the first day of May." Merton shouted to the crowd.


    "Good!"


    "It''s a deal!"


    The audience responded one after another.


    For ordinary people, they naturally don''t understand these solar eclipse schedules, which are like the book of heaven. To really verify whether what Mozi said is correct or not, we should wait until the first day of May. Anyway, it''s only three months.


    Merton waited until the atmosphere calmed down a little. Then he waved. A Mohist boy appeared in front of the crowd with a huge tray covered with red cloth.


    Merton stretched out his hand, the red cloth fell, and the gold ingots radiated a strange light in the sun.


    "Gold ingot again!"


    "Could it be that the Mohists want to buy some secret skills?"


    Many of the people present had participated in the grand meeting of the western regions. They immediately knew that the black sheep of the Mohist family had been ill again.


    "Black sheep!"


    Quan Wanji looked at Merton waving earth like gold and said with hatred.


    "Today last year, Mo promised that if someone could extract oxygen, the Mohists would reward Wanguan money. I wonder if any expert could succeed."


    At the moment, the people suddenly remembered this matter. At that time, except that shortly after the ink technology exhibition, someone falsely claimed it and was found out by Merton, there was no sound. They thought it was just a joke and laughed it off.


    However, watching Merton directly carry out so much gold, I knew that Merton was not kidding at all, but really planned to pay thousands of money for an ink skill.


    People couldn''t help looking around. If someone could really extract oxygen, wouldn''t they get rich overnight? Many people were annoyed. If they had known that the Mexican family was so happy, they would not miss this good opportunity to get rich.


    "Knowledge is power. One person''s power drives a huge tripod, and knowledge is wealth. An ink technology is worth thousands of dollars. To prove whether it is oxygen is very simple, just let Mars rekindle, and the money is yours." Merton looked around and said in a voice.


    Suddenly everyone''s breathing became heavy,


    Buy horse bones! Quan Wanji knew the intention of Mohist school, but he had no choice. Mohist school used Yang Mou and lured him with great interests. Over time, Mohist school will surely usher in an explosive development.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but take a swipe at the corners of his mouth and looked at the obsessed people. The Mohist School''s move is a fresh one. He eats all over the sky and throws money. It''s a tried and true move.


    However, after a long time, the whole audience was still silent.


    "It seems that the money won''t go out this year." Merton was disappointed and regretted.


    They felt a pain in their hearts, as if they had lost Wanguan money.


    "But don''t be disappointed. The promise of the Mohist school is always valid. As long as someone can make oxygen in the future, the Mohist school will pay Wanguan money on the spot and will never break its promise." Merton shouted.


    "Good!"


    Suddenly everyone cheered.


    "Besides oxygen, there will also be a valuable problem this year," Merton shouted.


    All eyes immediately focused on Merton and listened attentively.


    "That''s why well killing can produce water." Merton said, and the whole audience was in an uproar.


    "Isn''t well killing just water?"


    "If it is so simple, how can it be worth thousands of yuan!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, the whole audience was boiling and talking.


    Merton smiled, did not argue, but bowed slightly and made a curtain call to the crowd.


    The second ink technology exhibition is officially over!

 Chapter 484

    The ink technology exhibition has ended, but everyone is reluctant to leave for a long time. This ink technology exhibition has brought them a subversive shock.


    In the box, pound looked at Li Shimin with uncertain face and asked carefully, "Your Majesty, whether to invite Lord mo."


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "no, it''s true or false. It will be known on the first day of May."


    Although the Tiangou eclipse had a great impact, he didn''t take it to heart. At most, it was just an act of amnesty. What he really cared about was the revolutionary changes brought about by Mohism in agriculture and industry in the ink technology exhibition, which was the foundation of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Mohism, ink skills!" Li Shimin said silently in his heart. This ink skills exhibition made him pay more attention to Mohism.


    If the success of the first ink exhibition is accidental, the second ink exhibition is to really correct the name of Mohism and let him see the real importance of Mohism,.


    "The Mohist school is indeed a useful school." Li Shimin was so excited that he left the Mohist art exhibition with the flow of people.


    "Your guest has left!"


    Backstage of the ink exhibition, one armed Uncle Wang came to Merton and whispered.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Since he hooked up with someone else''s daughter, Merton always felt guilty when he saw Li Shimin. Although he thought he was foolproof, he didn''t know that there was always a feeling of dark clouds.


    Merton shook his head and put this feeling behind him. This ink technology exhibition is an opportunity for Mohism to really become famous. There is still a lot of work to be done in the follow-up.


    With the end of the ink technology exhibition, more than 3000 people who participated in the ink technology exhibition returned to Chang''an City and showed off one by one. Soon, the whole Chang''an city was boiling.


    "Ignition in the air!"


    "Artificial rainbow!"


    "Tiangou eats the day!"


    Many people in Chang''an City who had no chance of ink technology exhibition were looking forward to it. Hearing so many shocking contents, the whole city immediately debated.


    "You weren''t there. I don''t know how powerful the Mo family was. Five steps away from the brazier, holding a reading glass and waving it, the brazier suddenly burst into flames." in the pan restaurant, the pan nephew spit wildly and excitedly told the people about the situation at that time,


    He is a close relative of shopkeeper pan and works very hard. This time, he was lucky to get an invitation ticket from shopkeeper pan. It was amazing to see Merton perform.


    "It''s nothing. The MOH family made a rainbow in public." the pan family nephew proudly showed off.


    "Rainbow?" the restaurant crowd exclaimed one after another.


    "Yes! I was at the scene at that time. The rainbow was above my head and I could almost reach out. At that time, the villain saw the rainbow for the first time in his life. He had no regrets in his life!" said the nephew of the pan family.


    "Rainbow, isn''t that a rainbow beast?" everyone was shocked.


    "What rainbow beast? It''s all deceptive, but it''s the color of light! The Mo family used it to decompose the light into colorful colors on the spot." the pan family nephew sniffed.


    "How could it be?" a group of diners suddenly realized when they heard the explanation of Pan''s nephew.


    "I missed such a grand occasion. I knew I wouldn''t come to the restaurant to read the newspaper. How good it would be to order one myself." a diner regretted that he missed such a grand event in order to save 24 Wen. If he knew in advance, he wouldn''t care if it was 24 Wen, or 240 Wen!


    The Confucian scholars who denounced the Mohist School in the restaurant and unsubscribed from the ink magazine were even more regretful. They unsubscribed the ink magazine in advance in order to stand in line. Otherwise, how could they miss such a grand occasion.


    Merton is able to understand people''s curiosity. If he only publishes dry ink technology, I''m afraid the ink technology exhibition will only be forgotten. If he adds some interesting knowledge common in ink technology, it will certainly make boring knowledge lively immediately and have a better sensation effect.


    "Although the artificial rainbow is magical, it''s not worth mentioning compared with the last one," said Pan''s nephew.


    "Oh!"


    Suddenly all the curiosity suddenly rose. The rainbow is extremely rare. How rare will the last item be.


    Seeing that everyone''s attention was immediately focused on himself, the nephew of the pan family immediately had a feeling that the Mohist son was in the spotlight on the stage. At present, he imitated Merton''s big hand and pointed to the sky: "on the first day of May, please share the once-in-a-century spectacle, Tiangou eats the day."


    "Heavenly dog eats the sun!" everyone was immediately startled.


    "It''s impossible?" the Confucian scholar almost jumped up.


    Pan''s nephew shook his head and said, "Lord Quan was so opposed at that time, but the Mo family was speechless!"


    The pan family''s nephew repeated one by one the loopholes summarized by Merton about the dog eating the sun. A group of scholars suddenly lost their minds and were speechless. They could not imagine that the connection between heaven and man, which Confucianism has always insisted, was wrong.


    "Is it true that there will be a dog eating day on the first day of May!" the diners of the whole restaurant smacked their tongue one after another. This is a legendary heaven and earth phenomenon. Who could have thought that the Mexican family could also calculate it.


    "Yes, I''m afraid what mojiazi said is true." on the counter, shopkeeper pan raised his head from a thick pile of history books. He just checked the history books according to mojiazi''s solar eclipse schedule. Sure enough, as mojiazi said, the solar eclipse is indeed regular.


    Suddenly, a group of Confucian scholars seemed to have been knocked off their spine and went out of their essence, Qi and spirit.


    Shopkeeper pan is not the only one who can calculate the solar eclipse.


    In the xuandu temple, Li Chunfeng heard a report from a Taoist priest, put down his armillary sphere and sighed: "all schools of thought have the same goal by different paths. The Mohist school really deserves its reputation."


    He has a memorial at hand, which is exactly the prediction of dog food day on the first day of May.


    This matter is extremely confidential. Except his master yuan Tiangang, others don''t know at all, but they didn''t expect to be exposed by the ink family in advance.


    Li Chunfeng was suddenly full of five flavors. He felt both like-minded and he Shengyu''s lament.


    In the Imperial College, even when night falls, the lights are still red.


    Kong Yingda sat there with a gloomy face. In front of him, piles of history books were placed there, and a group of doctoral assistants from the Imperial College were busy.


    "Don''t look for it. Arithmetic won''t deceive people. If you give Shen a time, I can calculate the time of each lunar eclipse in a hundred years." Shen Hongcai pushed the door in and sighed.


    "The dog eating the sun is very important to Confucianism, and the Mohists are openly attacking Confucianism!" Liu Yinian said angrily. Solar eclipses and lunar eclipses are the basis of the Confucian theory of heaven man induction. Once Confucianism loses this weapon, there will be no restriction on imperial power.


    "How does Mohist School explain this?" Kong Yingda said in a deep voice. Shen Hongcai just left to talk to Mohist school on behalf of Confucianism.


    Shen Hongcai said with a wry smile, "Mohist said that if you hide it for a while, how can you hide it for a lifetime? Punishing a person with a wrong theory is itself a mistake. Confucius said that knowing a mistake can improve it. I don''t know how many sage relics there are in today''s Confucianism."


    When Kong Ying arrived at Dayton, if she was struck by lightning, she collapsed in her chair.

 Chapter 485

    "Confucianism is guilty! Let your majesty suffer an unjust injustice."


    The next day, Kong Yingda played a crisp plea. Although it was Dong Zhongshu who made the connection between heaven and man, who made the Kong family the representative of Confucianism, this account naturally fell on the Kong family.


    Li Shimin said with a pleasant face, "what''s the crime of Aiqing? It''s just the words of the Mexican family. How can you take it seriously!"


    "This is about your Majesty''s reputation. How can you be careless? I suggest the Taishi bureau to re investigate the celestial phenomena to prove your Majesty''s innocence, so as to prevent villains from slandering your reputation behind your back." Kong Yingda bowed his head.


    In the event of a dog eating the sun, they will think that God is warning, and naturally some people will point out. Even many rebellious rebels often take advantage of this to make trouble retrogradely.


    Li Shimin raised his head and said, "I have calmed the world all my life. After I ascended the throne, I have worked hard and the world is peaceful. How can God bring down sin? Even if there are rumors about villains, it is just an itch of scabies. What''s the matter."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty echoed one after another.


    After Li Shimin finished the show, he turned to look at Li Chun and said, "Li Aiqing, the Taishi Bureau immediately read the history books and thoroughly investigated the ancient records. Be sure to find out the truth of Tiangou eating the moon and return the innocence of the emperors of all dynasties!"


    Important officials can''t help but draw from the corners of their mouths. Since ancient times, people have been shouting grievances and courtiers have asked the emperor to return an innocence. Who would have thought that one day, the emperor could hoodwink his unjust grievances and need to return an innocence.


    Li Chunfeng bowed out of the line and said, "I will obey your orders!"


    How could the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty not know that such a big event had happened in the ink technology exhibition? I''m afraid he had already calculated overnight. Anyone with a bit of mathematical foundation in Chang''an city can calculate the time of the next solar eclipse on the first day of may according to Merton''s hint,.


    At the moment, people know that the Mohist''s conjecture is correct. The Taishi made Li Chunfeng just go through the motions. Otherwise, why did Kong Yingda plead for the Confucianism so neatly? If he waited until the first day of May and was beaten in the face by the Mohist in public, I''m afraid it would be more embarrassing for the Confucianism to leave the country.


    Kong Yingda breathed a sigh of relief and stepped back.


    Everyone sighed at this. This time, although Li Shimin lightly let go of Confucianism, the literary ministers of the Manchu Dynasty knew that the chips restricting the imperial power had been greatly reduced. It was still unknown whether an unrestricted emperor was a blessing or a curse. The chief culprit of all this was mojiazi.


    "Your Majesty, please promote pesticides!"


    "Your Majesty, please forbid pesticides!"


    Just after Kong Yingda retired, Quan Wanji and Su Lingnong joined the ranks and spoke in the same voice.


    In addition to the dog eating the day, the most controversial part of the whole ink technology exhibition is pesticides. The advantages and disadvantages of pesticides are clear at a glance.


    Everyone knows that once pesticides are applied, there will be no diseases and pests in the farmland, which will certainly increase production by a large margin. However, its disadvantages are also very clear. This is a poison, comparable to arsenic. Even if Mo Jiazi said that smallpox is drunk, everyone knows that there can be more or less pesticide residues. How can people not worry about the entrance of drugs?


    "Lord Quan, what do you mean? Once pesticides are released, the people will certainly have a bumper harvest year after year, and the court can feed more people. How can it be forbidden?" Su Lingnong said angrily. Now that the farmers have overcome the drought and locusts, diseases and pests are the last weakness of the farmers. How can su Lingnong not pay attention to it.


    "Don''t worry, Lord su. I''m also kind. Although pesticides can promote production, they are poisons after all. Even if they have little residue, as Mozi said, if you eat them every day, they accumulate and accumulate in your body, wouldn''t they endanger the foundation of our Tang Dynasty?" Quan Wanji sneered.


    For a moment, the Manchu courtiers could not help nodding.


    Even at a time when science and technology are so developed in later generations, the panic of ordinary people about pesticides has become rampant, and even appeared in the miracle of buying vegetables with insect eyes, let alone in this era of people''s ignorance, a little careless handling will certainly cause people''s panic.


    For all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he is a golden body. How can he take any risk? Quan Wanji seized this point and took the initiative to write to Li Shimin. He is not a scholar without fame. With the support of all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he can be said to be full of confidence.


    "It''s just your guess! Within a hundred years, the population of Datang will soar. If we don''t take precautions, how can we feed so many people? When the people are hungry and can''t make a living, you will know how valuable food is." Su Lingnong snapped.


    For Mohists, pesticides are just a kind of ink technology. Even if pesticides are banned, Merton just sighs and won''t say anything! However, it is very important for farmers, which is related to the rise and fall of farmers.


    Moreover, at the time of the denggu incident, Merton had taught the chaotang people a lesson. In the face of such a large population pressure in a short time, Su Lingnong was worried, and the introduction of pesticides by mojiazi was a timely help.


    "The weather is good in the Tang Dynasty. We have overcome drought, locusts and floods one after another, and have a good harvest year after year. How can we indiscriminately use highly toxic drugs because of a small profit?" Quan Wanji said coldly.


    Su Lingnong said angrily and with a smile, "what you said about conquering drought, locusts and floods is also the credit of the Mohist school."


    Quan wanjisi was not moved by it and said, "I admit that the Mohists are great, but not everything is right."


    Su Lingnong said coldly, "then you have to see whether the people all over the world agree or not."


    Cutting off one''s wealth is like killing one''s parents. The use of pesticides is profitable for farmers. I''m afraid it can''t be stopped even if there are more theories about Quan Wanji.


    "Therefore, Wei Chen asked his majesty to prohibit the production of pesticides in Mojia village so as to eliminate future problems." Quan Wanji decided.


    "Your Majesty, don''t! Food is the most important thing for the people. The increase in grain production in the Tang Dynasty is a sign of prosperity. How can we lose our future?" Su Lingnong shouted.


    Quan Wanji retorted, "it''s because the people regard food as their priority. How can anything imported be mixed with a little poison? Who dares to eat such food."


    "Your Majesty, please judge." they asked Li Shimin for orders at the same time.


    Li Shimin slowly got up and said, "pesticides have both advantages and disadvantages. What you two Aiqing said is reasonable. However, I think it is the responsibility of doctors to judge whether they can eat them. Didn''t Merton say that they should let the Mojia village eat the food using pesticides? Will the doctors know when they check it?"


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Su Lingnong said happily, with his understanding of Merton. I believe Merton will not do anything uncertain.


    "What about pesticides this year?" Quan Wanji asked anxiously.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and solemnly said, "pesticides continue to be produced, but they cannot be sold to the people without permission. The imperial court will uniformly send them to the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty. Once there is an insect disaster, pesticides will be used to kill the insects immediately, and the laid grain will be purchased by the imperial court. Our Tang Dynasty has not been extravagant enough to waste grain."


    They had to bow down and say yes!


    Quan wanjiton''s face darkened. He didn''t expect that he was in the court and was supported by the Manchu minister. He still couldn''t stop the Mo family.


    However, Quan Wanji''s face is fierce. Pesticides are highly toxic drugs. It''s not easy to have something wrong. It depends on how the Mexican family ends.

 Chapter 486

    Chang''an City


    "Why didn''t the ink magazine be delivered!" one morning, the people of Chang''an City who had no chance to enter the ink technology exhibition looked forward to it.


    They regretted that they missed the ink exhibition yesterday. They just listened to other people boasting about how wonderful the ink exhibition was, but they were vague. They had been itching for a long time. They knew that the people at the ink exhibition had turned their lips and said: "What we Xiaomin focuses on is secular affairs. Reading newspapers and periodicals will broaden our horizons and make a fresh picture. If we want to get knowledge, we might as well buy a set of four books and five classics and go home to study. In that way, we may save some money. If we are lucky, we can get a reputation or something?"


    With the emergence of block printing, the price of books in Chang''an City has dropped greatly. In the long run, it is cheaper than buying newspapers and periodicals.


    People nodded one after another. Compared with the ink journals that have been able to break big news, the Confucian journals that focus on preaching make people feel very boring.


    The only refreshing thing is that the Mexican family''s strong material for making poison caught everyone''s attention, but he was soon beaten in the face by the Mexican family.


    "The newspaper has been sold, and the ink magazine has been officially revised! In the future, it will be issued every ten days and delivered every ten days." a clear children''s voice resounded through the streets of Chang''an city.


    With the sound, a teenager appeared in the public''s sight with a large pile of newspapers and periodicals. Many people unsubscribed from ink periodicals. Today, the task of selling newspapers is very heavy.


    "Finally!"


    "Every ten days, that doesn''t mean one more issue per month."


    They were surprised.


    Everyone knows that although this is the strategy put forward by Mo magazine to deal with the competition of Confucian magazines, it has to be said that this change of Mo magazine is very popular. Ten days in Japan is a day of rest. If you can sit in the teahouse and read the latest newspapers on ten days, it is simply a kind of enjoyment.


    In addition, although the semi monthly Ink magazine is much faster than the word-of-mouth of the villagers in the past, it still has only words for nearly half a month and has long been unable to meet the needs of the citizens.


    After a year of running in, ink magazine has already had its own set of operation system, with a lot of room to speed up, and the issue of ten days is very suitable, which can not only meet the needs of citizens, but also meet the challenges of Confucian magazine.


    "Give me one!"


    "I''ll have one too!"


    After a while, many people gathered around and brought an ink magazine for a penny. Soon, the newspaper boy lost a large part of the ink magazine in his hand, and his pocket became heavy.


    In this era, there is no use of child labor. These newspaper children are originally poor places in Chang''an city. They are young and have no income at all. Ink magazine hired them as newspaper children to give them an extra income.


    "Thank you, uncles and uncles. Today''s Ink magazine has a surprise from the ink family, which will certainly not disappoint you." Merton counted the heavy money bags and said.


    When they got the newspaper, they all found a place and couldn''t wait. It seemed that there was no Newsboy in their mind for a long time. There was no surprise in the newsboy''s mouth. It should only be what the newsboy said about the ink technology exhibition.


    "Artificial rainbow!"


    "Tiangou eats the day!"


    Almost everyone read these two for the first time and saw the detailed explanation in the ink magazine, which was a great enlightenment.


    "The Mohists are amazing. Relying on these two miracles alone, they must be able to stir the whole country." Li Chengcheng said excitedly. They are in Chang''an City and have a certain ability to accept it through the mouth of the population. However, if the people in other places see ink magazines, they may be shocked.


    "Of course!"


    Everyone agrees, and a sense of superiority arises spontaneously.


    "What''s this? The dog eating day doesn''t have much impact on us. In my opinion, the jack of mojiazi is most in line with my heart. When I carry sacks at the wharf, it''s only a hundred or twenty kilograms at a time. If mojiazi pulls thousands of kilograms at a time, won''t he be able to earn ten times the salary!" A strong man was surprised that the freight at the wharf and station was calculated by quantity. With the power of one person of Mohist machinery, it was better than ten people. Naturally, the salary could also be greatly increased.


    Many people''s eyes lit up and their hearts moved when they heard the speech. Everyone knows that the jack and Qianjin arm of mojiazi will certainly bring revolutionary changes to the transportation industry of Datang.


    Ordinary workers pay attention to jacks and heavy arms, while those who have fields at home pay attention to grafting technology. Chang''an city is the only super city with a population of more than one million. The degree of urbanization is quite high. There are countless fruits and vegetables needed every day. However, subject to the output, these fruits are often in short supply and the price remains high. The grafting technology of mojiazi can be said to solve the problem The urgency of eyebrows.


    "Such a fine seed can graft hundreds of fruit trees, but it can bear fruit in three or five years. It will spread hundreds and thousands. Within ten years, there will be melons and fruits everywhere in the Tang Dynasty." an old man in Qingyi sighed immediately.


    "What I wanted to get married in those years was the wedding night. It''s good for mojiazi to let Guoshu get married before he got married. Mojiazi is worthy of being a mojiazi." they sighed.


    "The Mohist school didn''t talk nonsense. This ink technology is really comparable to the artificial incubation technology!" the old man in Tsing Yi exclaimed.


    What is more valuable is that most of the grafted fruit trees are improved varieties, and the people can sell them at a good price. If they can be popularized in the north and south of the river, the value they produce is simply incalculable.

 Chapter 487

    "If we also have a well bred fruit tree, then I will monopolize the branches and I think I can also sit on the ground and collect money." Li Chengzhen suddenly sighed.


    Suddenly, many people were stunned, looked at each other, tacitly, and were ready to leave quietly.


    "Don''t rush about, it''s too late!" the old man in Tsing Yi waved his hand.


    "Why?" they were surprised.


    "At the end of the ink technology exhibition yesterday, some people went to the counties of Chang''an City long ago. I''m afraid many improved fruit trees have been sold out. If you''re not afraid of trouble, you''ll start for other roads of Datang immediately, and maybe you''ll have a chance to make a fortune." the old man sneered. Even if you go to other roads, I''m afraid you''ll have to compete with others. There are more than tens of thousands of people who see ink magazines in Chang''an city.


    "Ah! Missed a good opportunity!" Li Chengzhen immediately regretted.


    He was still complacent about his boycott of Mohism and his cancellation of ink periodicals, but he didn''t think he had lost a chance to make a fortune.


    Soon, news came from Sanyuan county that a chicken heart persimmon king of Sanyuan for more than 50 years sold for 100 Wen per branch, and it was sold in limited quantities.


    Not only that, the surprise of the whole Sanyuan county came so suddenly. In just one day, the value of an ordinary persimmon tree soared, and the value of some fruit farmers soared overnight. Such a surprise came so suddenly.


    With a sigh, they looked at the ink magazine honestly.


    "Legalist column!"


    "Han women''s case!"


    Many people suddenly saw that the Mohists had opened a special column for the Hu family women''s case, which was named legalist column.


    The Hu family women''s case is well known. Ordinary people only consider it from the perspective of human and worldly sophistication. The behavior of the Hu and Han families is heartless, and no one has ever considered it from the perspective of law.


    This article, based on the Hu family women''s case, explains in detail the household marriage law of the Tang Dynasty, introduces in detail how to identify the method of buying and selling marriage, and how to protect yourself by the user''s marriage law, which makes people refreshing.


    "Legalist Han Zheng!"


    The old man was stunned when he saw the signature of the article. It can be said that ordinary people are very strange to this name. It is absolutely for the old generation that the legalist Han Zheng is famous.


    "Does the old man know this man!" others asked in surprise.


    "I''ve heard of your name for a long time. When he was in the previous dynasty, he was well-known and upright. He is a worthy legalist sage." the old man sighed.


    "The Tang Dynasty is becoming more and more lively. Even the Legalists are involved." they suddenly feel like watching a big play.


    "This legal column is good. It is aimed at this legal column and will subscribe to the ink publication for a long time in the future."


    In this era, just because ordinary people don''t know the law doesn''t mean they don''t need the law. In any era, the legal column can always attract a large number of loyal audiences, and the legalist column just caters to the needs of this part and fills the blank of Datang.


    "I''m afraid this is the surprise of Mohist school!" the old man said.


    The great sages who can invite Legalists are enough to compete with Confucian journals.


    "No, the surprise is still at the end! The last one was written by Mohist." Li Chengcheng''s eyes brightened and quickly turned to the last page.


    "It''s impossible!" the people suddenly didn''t believe. If Mohist articles were not directly placed on the front page, wouldn''t they be placed at the end of Mohist magazine.


    However, when they turned to the last page of Ink magazine, they saw that the author''s signature really wrote the word Merton.


    "Liang Zhu?" people were confused when they looked at these two words.


    "During the Western Jin Dynasty, Liang Shanbo, a young student, left home to study. On his way, he met Zhu Yingtai, a student disguised as a man. They became friends at first sight and shared the same interests. So they became brothers at Caoqiao and then went to hongluoshan academy together."


    "Liang Shanbo Zhu Yingtai!"


    "Women dress up as men!"


    When they saw this place, they couldn''t help laughing. Zhu Yingtai''s meeting with Liang Shanbo, dressed as a man, was so similar to Mohist Zi''s meeting with a woman dressed as a man on the night of the Lantern Festival.


    "I didn''t expect that Mojia Zi was still a kind of infatuation and well intentioned!" the old man sighed. With his experience, he naturally knew the intention of Mojia Zi. Meeting women privately at the end of the month was really romantic in the eyes of men, but it was not for women. People were more harsh on women, even if Mojia Zi made so many efforts, I''m afraid it will still bear the criticism of people. However, as soon as this book is published, I''m afraid the wind will change immediately.


    The crowd nodded and said, "no one thought that the Mo family would write a text to correct its name for the right person."


    "This is true," someone exclaimed.


    "I''m from Qilu. I heard the story of Liang Zhuzhi when I was a child."


    "No, Liang Zhu is from Runan. Hongluo academy is in Runan."


    "The little one is the auditor, and Liang Shanbo is the auditor. This is well known in the southeast generation."


    Although the story of Liang Zhu spread on a small scale, it is not impossible to textual research. There are people from all parts of the world in Chang''an City, and Liang Zhu''s story is widely spread in Qilu, Henan Road and even the southeast generation, which is naturally well known.


    However, the stories of Liang Zhu they know are just dry words, and the Liang Zhu reported in Ink magazine is a mixture of later Yue Opera and local legends. It can be said that it is a master of art, and people are immediately attracted to it.


    "Make obeisance to Caoqiao."


    "Liang Shanbo is so stupid that he can''t tell women from men."


    "Zhu Yingtai''s maid was so stupid that she almost didn''t slip her tongue."


    Everyone you say and I say, one by one with relish.


    "My family has a little nine younger sister..."


    When Zhu Yingtai complained that his parents were stubborn and did not allow women to study, many old pedants could not help frowning, but more people agreed.


    "Both men and women are born to their parents. Women should study wisely."


    When they saw that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai became brothers with different surnames because they had the same interests because of women''s study, everyone was immediately attracted and couldn''t extricate themselves.


    "I''m afraid this is the surprise of Mojia Zi!" the people suddenly said, and it was indeed a great surprise.


    More than half of the advertisements in this issue of Ink magazine were missing. Mr. Li didn''t stop at one time and took the opportunity to print Liang Zhu''s next chapter together with his classmates for three years.


    "Men and women have been schoolmates for three years and live in the same house. It''s a loss of family." many old scholars angrily said when they looked at the ink magazine, but they scolded, but they didn''t loosen the ink magazine at all. Instead, they criticized and watched it with relish.


    "Those who don''t know are innocent. Liang Shanbo is a gentleman and doesn''t know that Zhu Yingtai is a daughter."


    "Liang Shanbo is really a nerd. His roommate hasn''t found that Zhu Yingtai is his daughter for three years."


    "Zhu Yingtai is so smart that he put a basin of water between them. Liang Shanbo didn''t dare to turn over for three years. It''s really unlucky."


    For a moment, Chang''an city was quiet, and the whole city looked down at Liang Zhu.

 Chapter 488

    "However, Liang Shanbo didn''t notice the abnormality. He also found that Zhu Yingtai had a ring mark in his ear. He almost saw through the truth. Unfortunately, he was skillfully hid by the temple fair on the grounds of playing Guanyin."


    "I never dare to see Guanyin again."


    "I dare not!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the people who see Liang Zhu are addicted to it. The novels of this era have just developed and can hardly enter the purpose. Even an ordinary legend makes people enjoy talking about it, not to mention that the Liang Zhu written by Merton is a collection of wonderful bridge segments of later generations, which is naturally fascinating and irresistible.


    Under Merton''s description, everyone can see that the relationship between Liang Zhu and them has quietly grown, only to pierce the window paper. Everyone is immersed in their beautiful and hazy love, even in their hard heart, which can''t help turning into soft fingers at the moment.


    However, the good time is always short, and the three years are fleeting. Just when they are most happy, a letter from Zhu family breaks all these sweet dreams, and Zhu family calls Zhu Yingtai home.


    Everyone was in a hurry to see the result, but they found that it was gone.


    "Predict what will happen and listen to the next chapter."


    When the people were intoxicated, the broken chapter of the Mo family made them want to be immortal and die.


    "It''s gone?"


    The crowd turned left and right, and finally sighed helplessly.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Everyone hates it.


    A butcher put down the ink magazine in his hand, picked up the pig killing knife in his hand, cut it heavily on the chopping board and roared, "Mo family, you deceive people too much. Do you think the knife in his hand is bad?"


    Everyone nodded together. None of them sympathized with the ink family. They hated the itchy teeth one by one. They not only reluctantly read it again, but then put down the ink magazine and lamented, "my God! The next Ink magazine will take ten days. How should we live?"


    The charm of the novel was shown for the first time in the Tang Dynasty, especially in Chang''an City, where people''s living needs were urgent. Liang Zhu just met this demand. For a moment, Liang Zhu even overshadowed the limelight of the ink technology exhibition.


    "Novelist mojiazi!"


    Under the title of Mohist school, another one was added, who also studied a hundred schools. This time, no one doubted that even the most eccentric novelist Mohist school could dabble in it. What else Mohist school would not.


    Under the bonus of Liang Zhu, this issue of Ink magazine sold out in the shortest time, and even kept asking for additional printing. It can be predicted that this issue of Ink magazine will certainly create a new record for the distribution of Ink magazine.


    "Ink magazines are sold out!"


    When the Confucian journal was stationed, Wei Si''an said with a shocked face. As a competitor, why didn''t Wei Si''an pay attention to the ink journal? This was the first battle between the Confucian journal and the ink journal. Who would have thought that the Confucian journal had not pressed the ink journal.


    Although he knew that the sales of ink magazines would pick up in the ink technology exhibition, he didn''t mean that ink magazines would be so popular.


    "Go back, young master! But in one morning, Chang''an City has sold tens of thousands of ink magazines." Wei''s servant bowed his head and reported.


    "Tens of thousands of ink magazines!" Wei Si''an took a breath.


    With so many great Confucians gathered in Confucian journals, the momentum of Confucianism is huge, but it only issued more than 5000 copies in Chang''an city. Originally, I thought that this change and that change, it must be able to overwhelm ink journals. Who knows that ink journals do not decline but rise, but counter attack in this case, and the sales volume has doubled directly.


    "Namo!" said wesan.


    Wei''s servants quickly handed over an ink magazine and waited aside.


    Wei Si''an was not moved by the introduction of ink technology exhibition on Ink magazine. These Chang''an cities have long been spread. The real purpose of printing ink magazine is to target readers outside Chang''an City, which is a sensational effect.


    "Legalists!"


    When Wei Si''an saw the legalist column, he couldn''t help shrinking his eyes. The new revision of the Mohist school made him refreshing. However, there was a lot of noise in the Han family''s female case. The people in Chang''an city had long been familiar with it. This is not a new thing.


    "Liang Zhu!"


    Wei Sian''s eyes narrowed. He finally found the reason why ink magazines were so popular.


    Although he has a deep prejudice against Mohism, he can''t help but be attracted by this article, let alone ordinary people.


    "What attracts readers most is novels?"


    Wesan''s heart moved. If Ink magazine could also publish novels? However, this idea flashed through his mind and was soon rejected. Confucianism is an orthodox journal. If it publishes novels, it would be nothing.


    "Nishan academy!"


    Seeing the place where Liang Zhu and Wei Zhu were studying, Wei Si''an couldn''t help but move in his heart and ordered Wei Fu''s humanitarian: "go and invite chief editor Ma over."


    Quan Wanji was the imperial historian of the imperial court. Naturally, he could not preside over the ink magazine. Wei Sian was too young to support such a big plate, so he had to invite a respected scholar to preside over the ink magazine.


    Editor in chief Ma is Quan Wanji''s good friend and the master of Nishan Academy. He happened to travel in Chang''an City and was pleased to host the ink journal at the invitation of Quan Wanji.


    "What does chief editor Ma think?" asked wesan with a frown.


    Ma Fuzi looked at the ink magazine, frowned, put it on the ink magazine and sighed, "Nishan academy does have Liang Zhuzhi''s theory."


    "What, so Liang Zhu is really a matter of Nishan academy?" Wei Si''an said inconceivably.


    "No! The saying of Liang Zhu is not only in the legend of Nishan academy, but also in Hongluo academy and Songshan Academy. It is said that there are similar legends, and the specific and accurate location can not be verified." editor in chief Ma shook his head.


    Wei Sian suddenly realized that it was not impossible to verify, but that no one was willing to admit it! After all, as an academy, if a woman disguises as a man to study, it will have a bad reputation!


    This is not an era of competing for tourist attractions like that of later generations. The hometown of celebrities has been beaten up. As an academy, the most important thing is reputation. What a good reputation for women to study in the academy!


    Wei Si''an turned his eyes and pretended to have a sudden enlightenment: "in my opinion, the Mohist village wrote Nishan Academy. I thought it was true. I didn''t expect that it was made up by Mohist Zi!"


    Editor in chief Ma immediately looked angry and said, "Mo family, dare to destroy the reputation of our Nishan Academy. It will not stop."


    Just as editor in chief Ma was preparing to settle accounts with Mohist magazine, Wei Si''an took editor in chief Ma and said, "editor in chief Ma, why do you want to stay close and seek far? Confucian magazine is about to be released in the Tang Dynasty. You just need to publish an article in Confucian magazine, which will surely let students all over the world know Mohist''s character."


    Editor in chief Ma''s eyes flashed, nodded and said, "yes, for the sake of the reputation of the Academy, I will never give up with Mojia village this time. I''ll write an article to accuse Mojia Zi."


    At the moment, editor in chief Ma is dedicated to the Academy, but he doesn''t know how much he has missed. In the Later Liang Zhu dispute, it is because editor in chief Ma denies that the local people have lost the title of Liang Zhu''s hometown and have been scolded by countless people.

 Chapter 489

    Changle palace!


    Li Zhi sneaked into front of the palace with Princess Jinyang.


    "Yuzi! Go and see if sister Changle is still there. If she is not, bring her glasses." Lizhi urged the princess Jinyang.


    "Why should I go!" Princess Jinyang is not in charge at all.


    "The whole palace, in addition to father Pang and sister Changle''s reading glasses, do you want to see the ignition across the air?" Li Zhi seduced.


    "You mean to ignite in the same space as Mohist." Jinyang princess''s glasses lit up.


    "Hmm!" Li Zhi nodded hard.


    After seeing the ink Journal record the method of mojiazi''s ignition across the air, li felt itchy. After thinking about it, he finally thought that in the whole harem, only princess Changle''s reading glasses were used to treat pseudomyopia. He didn''t wear them often, so he took Princess Jinyang to the Changle hall to "borrow" it.


    "All right!" Princess Jinyang reluctantly sneaked into the Changle palace.


    After a while, Princess Jinyang came over with a pair of reading glasses in her hand. Li Zhi was overjoyed and was about to get up to meet her, but suddenly he was stunned. She saw a familiar figure behind Princess Jinyang.


    "It hurts, sister Changle, I don''t dare anymore." Li Zhi wanted to run, but he didn''t run away. He was grabbed by Changle''s ear and shouted quickly.


    Princess Changle said angrily, "I see if you dare to teach bad Yuzi in the future. You even asked her to steal things."


    "Sister Changle, I don''t dare anymore!" Li Zhi begged for mercy loudly.


    "Hum!" Princess Changle let Li Zhi go.


    Li Zhi rubbed his ears again and again and looked pitifully at the reading glasses in the hands of Princess Jinyang.


    Princess Changle immediately said softly, "you can play if you want, but you can only play in Changle palace, otherwise what if there is a fire?"


    Li Zhi immediately smiled and nodded. He immediately forgot the pain in his ears. Happily, he ran to Princess Jinyang, took out the paper he had prepared, and pointed the light point at the paper with a reading glass.


    A big brother and a little sister lay there and played. After a while, the paper soon burst into smoke and flames.


    "Wow!"


    Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang looked at the small fire and opened their mouths one by one, with a great sense of achievement.


    Princess Changle looked at the two people and couldn''t help showing a trace of pride at the corners of her mouth. She told the palace maid to look at the two people and don''t cause a fire. She picked up the ink magazine at hand and looked at the Liang Zhu serial in the ink magazine. She couldn''t help falling into sweet memories.


    On the night of the Lantern Festival, she disguised herself as a man and met Merton. It was very similar to Liang Zhu''s meeting at Caoqiao. She had received a secret letter from mojiazi that she wanted to surprise her. Now she knows what Merton''s surprise is. Take Liang Zhu as an example to correct their names.


    "This is the idea of Mohist school!" Li Shimin put down the ink magazine and said angrily in the legislative palace.


    Merton, a broken dog, blocked his heart.


    "This child, also calculate to have a heart." long sun empress one face satisfaction way.


    As a woman, her mind is more delicate. Although Merton and Princess Changle are private for life, they have caused such a storm before they are made public.


    At the beginning, empress Chang sun was naturally unhappy. After all, this matter would make Princess Changle criticized. However, seeing that Merton first changed the marriage system and wrote Liang Zhu to correct their names, how can she not be moved.


    Only a part of Liang Zhu''s publication has been able to make the whole city hot. Over time, if the relationship between Merton and Changle is open, I''m afraid everyone will only envy and have no criticism.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t help but look relaxed. Merton''s move also made him quite satisfied. His resentment about Merton''s abduction of his daughter decreased slightly.


    "Although the boy''s idea is good, I''m afraid it will cause a lot of trouble!" Li Shimin said with a bitter smile.


    The story of Liang Zhu is widely spread, beautiful and moving, but what he preaches is the concept of free love. In this era of very strict feudal ethics, Merton exhausted his efforts, but pried a gap in the words of his parents and matchmakers, so that both men and women could meet before marriage and sign voluntarily.


    In the eyes of the world, free love is no less than an uproar. How can it not attract criticism.


    "Mohist''s evil words mislead the public. I beg your majesty to investigate thoroughly." sure enough, the next day in the dynasty, Li Shimin just sat down and attracted a large siege of the imperial historian. This time, the scale was even better.


    All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help sighing. Since years later, mojiazi hasn''t stopped. The important officials of the imperial court have heard that mojiazi has been speechless.


    "Oh! What did Merton do again?" Li Shimin pretended to be confused.


    As soon as the ministers took a swipe at the corners of their mouths, the publication of Ink magazine was so sensational that they didn''t believe Li Shimin didn''t see it.


    Quan Wanji said with a determined face: "Your Majesty, Mozi made a private love with the mysterious woman on the night of the Lantern Festival. At the moment, he openly publicized the private love affair between men and women on the ink journal. This is against heaven and ethics. Please check it thoroughly."


    "Oh! What you said is about Liang Zhu!" Li Shimin suddenly realized.


    "But also!" the Manchu courtiers said excitedly.


    No matter how bad the influence of Mohist school is, it is just around Chang''an city. Once Mohist magazine is published, the matter of Liang Zhu will certainly spread throughout the Tang Dynasty. One of them had no orders from their parents and the other had no words from a matchmaker. They went so far as to stay in bed with their classmates for three years. In addition, Liang zhuzhong advocated the view that women go to school. In the eyes of some old die hards, this is what a treacherous act.


    Li Shimin could not help frowning. If he had been on the side of the minister before, but Merton''s move was to whitewash the name of Princess Changle. Naturally, he would be on the side of his daughter.


    Li Shimin had an idea. He looked at Linghu dehu, the Minister of rites, and said, "Linghu Aiqing, you are the Minister of rites and are in charge of the etiquette of the world. What do you think?"


    Linghu dehu immediately got up reluctantly. He was a member of the Guanlong family, and the Mohist family was the key to the prosperity of the Guanlong family. Naturally, he would not easily offend the Mo family. He bowed down and said, "tell your majesty that Liang Zhuzhi''s theory is true and widely spread all over the Tang Dynasty. This is a well-known thing. What Lord Mo wrote is not a vain thing, and the lower official doesn''t know how to comment."


    "Oh, it''s true!" Li Shimin looked surprised, and the actor''s acting skills immediately began to perform.


    Yan shigu, the minister in charge of the Chinese book, had to go out and say, "Your Majesty, the matter of Liang Zhu has been circulated all over the country and recorded in the county chronicles. Although the versions are different, it can be seen that it is true."


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "Ink magazine is a matter of connecting the world. It is widely spread. It turns out that Merton didn''t make false statements. How can he be convicted for his words."


    The imperial governors were stunned and looked at Li Shimin puzzled. No one thought that Li Shimin should let go of the Mo family so lightly, and there was a trace of connivance.


    "Of course, since Morton has been granted the title of firearm supervisor for offering wine by the imperial court, how can he do nothing all day? He sent a message that the Mohist son neglected his duty and fined him for March, ordering Morton to take office immediately and work for the imperial court. If there is any slack, he will be severely punished." Li Shimin shouted.


    The ministers could not help twitching. I''m afraid this punishment would have killed Mohist Zi before, but now Mohist village is the richest in the world. How can you care about this little salary.

 Chapter 490

    However, what everyone didn''t expect was that Merton cared! And I care!


    "You mean I haven''t paid a penny of salary, and I have to deduct it for three months." in the Mo mansion, Merton looked at pound who came to preach.


    "Why, do you still have an opinion?" said pound with a kind face and a pair of reading glasses. However, in the palace, everyone knows how powerful father-in-law Pang is.


    "I don''t have any opinions, but I''m a young man with a weak crown. It''s not easy for me to find a job with salary. I''m ready to make money, save money and get married. If so, when can I save money in Chang''an City and marry my daughter-in-law." Merton said wrongfully.


    "Mohou wants to save money to marry his daughter-in-law?" pound looked at Merton, who was crying poor.


    Merton said with a natural look: "of course, before, it was a young boy who lived on the old and young in Mojia village. Now the boy has a job. Naturally, he can''t live on a group of old, weak, sick and disabled!"


    "Old, weak, sick and disabled!" pound drew a corner of his mouth, and an old man came out of the Mojia village. They were all cattle men comparable to those who would be the chief craftsman. Who dares to say they were old, weak, sick and disabled.


    "Besides, in the matter of marriage, of course, is it better to earn money and marry a daughter-in-law?" Merton argued.


    "So, mohou doesn''t need the money of Mohist village to get married in the future." pound turned his eyes.


    "Of course! The money of Mojia village is public, and marriage is private. How can it be divided between public and private." Merton said with awe inspiring justice.


    Pound said with admiration on his face: "Lord Mo is really a model for the young generation. If all men in the world are as independent and strong as Lord Mo, it is a great fortune in the world. I''ll go back to the palace and report to your majesty and ask your majesty to tell the world and publicly reward Lord Mo, so that all men in the world can make money and marry themselves."


    "Ah!" Merton was shocked and hurriedly tried to dissuade, but pound didn''t give Merton another chance and turned around and left.


    "It''s easy to talk for a while, but it''s wrong to pretend for life!" Merton was dejected and looked defeated.


    What he wants to marry is not an ordinary person, but a princess! Is the money spent one or two points? It''s estimated that you won''t be able to save enough money by 70 or 80 just by virtue of that salary!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What, Mohist really said that?" Li Shimin looked at pound inconceivably.


    Pound smiled and nodded, "Your Majesty, it''s true."


    When Li Shimin heard Pound''s original narration, he couldn''t help turning his eyes and suddenly realized that this was the opportunity to kill one stone.


    His daughter is his father''s little cotton padded jacket. His father-in-law was wrong when he saw his son-in-law. Li Shimin had long been deeply resentful. Now Merton just handed him the handle. If he didn''t embarrass Merton, he would be very sorry for him.


    "It''s a message that the Mohist school can be a young model. I''m very relieved to be self reliant and self-improvement. I hereby commend it. The salary will be halved within six months instead of three months." Li Shimin said with a proud smile.


    "Yes!" pound said with a smile.


    "Tell me, I''ll stare at him!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    Soon, with the decree issued, the matter that Mohist Zi was ready to marry with salary quickly spread all over Chang''an city.


    "Hahaha, the Mohist school also has today!"


    "Three months'' salary will become six months'' salary will be halved!"


    "Your Majesty, this is really gratifying!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡£


    Many people suddenly gloated.


    "The salary of seven grade officials is twenty-five Liang a year, plus salary materials, job fields, etc., that is, one yuan is about fifty-two." a good man began to help the Mo family calculate how long it would take to marry a daughter-in-law.


    "Fifty two! It''s enough to marry a daughter-in-law!" others smacked. Ordinary people''s income is very low. It''s a strong labor force to earn 35 Liang a year. Merton''s annual income is nearly ten times that of ordinary people, which is also a high salary.


    The good man sneered: "of course not! Fifty Liang is enough to marry a small family, but what kind of identity the Mo family is. If he marries, he must be a famous girl, not to mention fifty Liang, even five hundred Liang, I''m afraid it''s also shabby."


    The crowd smacked their tongue and said, "so it will take at least ten years for the Mexican family to marry a daughter-in-law, even if they don''t eat or drink?"


    The good man nodded sympathetically, and since the edict had been issued, Merton couldn''t even use the money of the Mojia village, so the Mojia Zi could only swallow the bitter water.


    "So, if the money that Mozi lost his family before could be saved, how many kisses would it be enough!" others smacked.


    The good man nodded approvingly and said, "I''m afraid the behavior of the black sheep of the Mohist school has been cured by his majesty at once."


    When they heard the speech, they were stunned and said, "hahaha, I''m afraid from now on, the title of Mohist has changed from a black sheep to a miser."


    The whole city of Chang''an suddenly burst into friendly laughter. Since Merton became famous in Chang''an City, I don''t know how much joy he has brought to the people of Chang''an city.


    "Come, get the monthly money!" Merton said proudly in the ink house.


    "Coming, coming!" immediately, everyone lined up in front of Merton under the leadership of fuber.


    "Fubo, I''ve worked hard. This is your monthly money of 30 Wen this month!"


    "Thank you, young master!" Fu Bo took it with a smile and counted it one by one. Even if Fu Bo''s Brocade clothes were no less than 300 Wen, he was happier than thirty Liang with the thirty Wen money in his hand.


    "Aunt Xu usually makes clothes hard. The monthly money is thirty Wen." Merton handed the thirty Wen to Aunt Xu. Aunt Xu took it over with the same smile.


    "First class servant girl, purple dress! I don''t pour tea and water many times on weekdays. It''s twenty Wen a month." Merton said and pulled out ten Wen from his hand.


    "Who cares about your twenty Wen? If my servant girl draws a picture, Mo San has to give me two hundred Wen." Ziyi said disgustingly.


    "You can give it back to me if you dislike it. I don''t dislike it at all," Merton said with a gesture.


    "That''s the servant girl''s hard-earned money, of course!" Ziyi grabbed it and counted Kaiyuan Tongbao with joy.


    "Other Mohist children are equally twenty Wen," Morton said weakly.


    Soon! A string of copper coins disappeared quickly. Merton counted the ten Wen money he had deducted from Ziyi''s hands. He was suddenly very sad and angry. I''m afraid he was the poorest in the whole Mohist house and even the whole Mohist village!


    Merton counted several times and looked like a miser. He put the ten Wen money in the money bag and looked in the direction of the palace. Merton lamented that he deliberately gave the handle to Li Shimin in in order to make Li Shimin happy.


    Besides, which man doesn''t try his best to please his father-in-law? As for the results, it''s up to fate.


    Hehe! Man!

 Chapter 491

    Xuandu Temple back mountain, firearm supervisor!


    Merton received Li Shimin''s will. Naturally, he dared not neglect it and took office immediately.


    "Mo Hou!" Yu Wenbo respectfully came forward.


    This ink technology exhibition really opened yuwenbo''s eyes. They are also craftsman families. Yuwenbo''s family is knowledgeable and thinks that they can''t lose to anyone together. However, after seeing the amazing skills of Merton in the ink technology exhibition, they immediately know that there are days outside the world and people outside the people.


    Ordinary carpenters just boast how superb their skills are. Yuwen family is a great man in building Chang''an city. However, compared with Mohism, its pattern and technology are different.


    Merton nodded and asked, "how much progress has been made in the firearms supervision project."


    Yu Wenbo respectfully said, "if you return to mohou, it all depends on the help of Mohist Qianjin arm. Now the firearms supervision has been roughly completed, waiting for mohou to inspect the work."


    Merton nodded. Even on the basis of Mohist machinery and the imperial court''s disregard of financial, material and human resources, Yu Wenbo has made a great contribution to making the firearms prison take shape in recent months.


    When Merton stepped into the firearm prison, he saw that the newly-built firearm prison was unusually empty, full of red bricks covered the ground, and all the houses were brick and tile structures. Except for the necessary beams, he rarely saw wood, which was a lesson from the last explosion.


    "Master Yuwen, you have made great contributions this time. You can hand over the subsequent works to mo. in the future, the firearms supervisor will be completed. Mo will certainly be able to play the imperial court without your credit." Merton arched his hand.


    "Thank you!" Yu Wenbo said happily. Naturally, he would not think that Merton would be greedy for his credit. The Yuwen family has been declining since the death of Yuwen Kai. With this credit, maybe the Yuwen family can make a comeback.


    Watching Yu Wenbo leave, Merton stood at the door of the firearm prison and looked at the empty firearm prison. He was full of pride. This will be a place to change the world.


    "Boom!"


    A sound of horse hoofs came at a gallop. A general rode on a tall horse, and more than 100 soldiers and soldiers came with neat steps behind him.


    "I''ve seen mohou!" the general dismounted and saluted Merton at the door.


    "It was Xi Jun who bought it. What brings you here!"


    Merton looked intently and found that it was bought by Xi Jun, an old acquaintance.


    "Marquis Mo went to the imperial court to strengthen the guard. His majesty specially ordered that he would send a hundred and twenty horsemen to be driven by Marquis mo." Xi Junmai bowed.


    "Baiqi!" Merton was overjoyed when he saw the elite soldiers behind him. Li Shimin really valued gunpowder, otherwise he would not let his trusted Baiqi protect the safety of the firearm supervisor.


    "Xue Rengui stepped out of the line!" Xi Jun shouted.


    Suddenly, a burly young man stepped out of the line, arched his hands at Merton and said, "Xue Rengui has seen mohou."


    Merton suddenly opened his eyes. He didn''t expect that the butterfly effect would appear in front of him. In history, Xue Rengui joined the army seven years later. From then on, he soared to the sky, but he didn''t expect to join Baiqi in the eighth year of Zhenguan.


    However, Xue Rengui is a good son of an innocent family. He is usually born with divine power. At the moment, he is just over 20. He is in his prime of life. It is not impossible to be selected into Baiqi.


    "Pass on your Majesty''s will! From now on, Xue Rengui will lead these hundred and twenty firearms guards." Xi Junmai shouted.


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui bowed down.


    After Xi Junmai explained, he led his entourage to leave,


    "Please have a pleasant cooperation with general Xue in the future!" Merton was secretly excited. He was a legend of the three arrow Dingjun mountain in the future. He bowed his hand and said solemnly.


    "I''m just a small captain. I can''t afford to be a general. I''ll just follow the orders of marquis mo." Xue Rengui quickly saluted.


    Merton was amazed by his reputation in later generations, but Xue Rengui had heard of Merton for a long time. Under this strange state of mind, they met for the first time.


    "Please also ask Xue Xiaowei to immediately block the firearms prison. From now on, all people and vehicles entering and leaving the firearms prison must pass the permission of mo." Merton said positively.


    "Yes!"


    Xue Rengui immediately took orders. With a wave of his hand, a hundred cavalry officers and soldiers immediately guarded the door of the firearm prison. At the same time, the hundred cavalries were divided into several teams to patrol the firearm prison continuously.


    Subsequently, the craftsmen recruited by the Ministry of industry quickly identified themselves and entered the firearms prison.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Now the firearm supervision site and craftsmen have it. Everything is ready. Only the east wind is owed. The firearm supervision can be officially started when the raw materials are delivered.


    "Congratulations, marquis Mo, the new official takes office!" the first to deliver the raw materials was the nearest xuandu temple, which sent the eldest son of Merton''s old acquaintance.


    "It''s Taoist priest Changsheng!" Merton hurried forward.


    "This is what Marquis Mo needs." the eldest son stretched out his hand and pointed to the carriage road behind him.


    With a flash of light, Merton went to the carriage. The eldest son lifted the tarpaulin on the carriage, revealing light yellow sulfur.


    "According to the requirements of mohou, all of them have been purified." the eldest son said proudly.


    Since Merton''s guidance on refining gold, the eldest son is now proficient in purification. In addition, the power of gunpowder is related to the purity of sulfur. Naturally, what Merton requires is the purification of sulfur by Taoist waidan sect.


    "Hard work makes a long life," Morton said with satisfaction.


    The next charcoal to be sent, Zhang Mu brought high-purity charcoal made by Mojia village, a full five carts.


    "Bing Jing Si Deng Chong, see Mo Hou." a eunuch saluted in a sharp voice.


    Merton smiled and said, "it''s grandpa Deng!"


    Ice king division is the department specialized in storing ice in the palace. Usually, it digs river ice in winter and stores it. It sends ice to various palaces in summer. It has little power and insignificant status. If it is not managed properly, it will make the palace lack ice, which will inevitably be punished by noble people.


    Since Merton invented saltpeter ice making, the status of bingjingsi has soared, and there is no fear of punishment. Merton had dealings with Deng Chong when making ice cream in the palace.


    In fact, if Merton wants saltpeter, he doesn''t need to go through the palace. There are not many saltpeter in Taoism, but gunpowder is very important. If there are no people in the palace, Li Shimin can''t rest assured. Merton''s move also avoids suspicion in the future.


    "This is the saltpeter stored by Bingjing company. Please accept it." Deng Chong waved his hand and suddenly seven carts of saltpeter appeared in front of Merton.


    Merton nodded. The proportion of nitrate in gunpowder accounted for more than 70%, which was used most. Moreover, these are saltpeter refined again after ice making, and the purity is also quite high.


    After Morton checked it, he began to put it into the warehouse.


    At this point, all the things needed by Merton are ready. As long as an order is given, the firearms prison can be officially operated.


    And Merton''s firearm sacrifice is the real new official.

 Chapter 492

    Merton looked complacently at the 50 craftsmen transferred from the Ministry of work, together with Taoist priest Chang Sheng, Mohist Zhang Mu, Bing Jing Si Deng Chong and military Xue Rengui. This was the grass-roots team of the firearms supervisor.


    "Cough!" Merton coughed twice, attracting everyone''s attention.


    "I''ve seen the sacrificial Lord!"


    The crowd bowed.


    Even if Merton once stood at the ink technology exhibition and was sought after by thousands of people, his heart beat a little faster. No wonder so many people pursue power. This taste is really addictive.


    "As the saying goes, a new official takes office with three fires." Merton shouted.


    Dun said that everyone looked pale. Although other officials would make an example when they took office, it was also a tacit thing. Where did they say it in public like Mo Jiazi.


    "But don''t start a fire when Ben is in office," Merton shouted.


    "No ignition?" they looked at each other. They didn''t know what Merton meant. Only Taoist priest Changsheng thought.


    "From now on, the firearms prison is strictly prohibited from making fire to avoid repeating the mistakes and make the tragedy of the big bang happen again," Merton shouted.


    Taoist priest Changsheng nodded with lingering fear. The big explosion caused heavy losses to the Taoist waidan sect.


    "What about the night?" Zhang Mu asked. Lights are often used for night work and night school in Mojia village.


    "Firearms wardens only work during the day and are closed at night. Lighting is prohibited," Merton explained.


    "It''s cold in winter, and you can''t make a fire to keep warm?" Deng Chong asked.


    "It is forbidden to use charcoal pots in winter. At that time, there will be a special Mohist meeting to install heating for you." Merton added.


    "What about cooking?" a craftsman asked tremblingly. After all, people need to make a fire to cook,


    Everyone nodded together. I''m afraid it can''t be avoided this time!


    "Firearms imprisonment is not allowed to make fire and cook. All meals must be in the charge of xuandu temple and sent to the firearms prison on time. Of course, the firearms prison will pay for the meal," Merton explained.


    The crowd nodded with satisfaction.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, Zhang Mu immediately took out a set of ordinary linen clothes on the market and showed them: "this is an open fire. In addition, there are potential fire hazards. No matter who enters the firearms prison, it is forbidden to wear mink fur and fur, and all wear the specially customized linen shoes of the firearms prison."


    "No one is allowed to use reading glasses!"


    The crowd nodded. At the ink technology exhibition, the story of mojiazi igniting the fire with presbyopia glasses had long been spread all over Chang''an city. Of course, they knew that if presbyopia glasses didn''t pay attention, they might cause a fire.


    "Ironware will spark everywhere. Unless necessary, try to reduce the use of ironware," Merton thought.


    Xue Rengui frowned and said, "I''m afraid it won''t work. Hundreds of cavalry officers and soldiers are full of armor and stomach weapons!"


    As a soldier, if unarmed, I''m afraid I''m like an unarmed tiger.


    Merton thought for a moment and then said, "all the soldiers on horseback are on guard. The soldiers are fully armed. The soldiers on patrol can only leave weapons."


    Although it was inappropriate for the soldiers to take off their armour and stomach, after all, Xi Junmai had explained that he listened to Merton''s orders, and this condition was barely acceptable.


    "Once every ten days, if someone points out a potential fire hazard, he will be rewarded with 100 liang of silver." Merton seduced.


    However, few people responded. What they could think of, the Mohist family had thought of, and what they didn''t think of, the Mohist family also thought of. It seems that they can''t get these hundred Liang silver.


    "The fire is not a fuss, but related to your life and my life. I hope this hundred Liang silver will never be used, so you will be safe and carefree in your life." Merton solemnly said.


    A group of craftsmen suddenly brightened their eyes. Before that, they were selected to come to the firearms prison, which was a panic. Moreover, with the reconstruction of the firearms prison, they saw the mess everywhere, and they were already nervous and worried. They were afraid that they would end up like this one day. If it weren''t for the order of the imperial court, they might have refused to do it.


    However, seeing the various fire prevention measures taken by the Mohists, even they could not think of any possibility of fire, and their previous worries had long disappeared,


    Seeing that the morale was available, Merton took the opportunity to say, "you are all innocent people elected by the imperial court. What you participate in is related to the grand plan of the imperial court for a hundred years. Naturally, the imperial court will not treat you badly. From now on, your family members will be incorporated into the imperial villa, exempt from all corvee, enjoy the same free medical treatment as the Mojia village, and your salary will be doubled."


    "Thank you, mohou!" all the craftsmen immediately said with ecstasy. They were willing to take a huge risk for the fire monitor. Who could have thought that it was such a big fat job that it was like pie falling from the sky.


    "Follow Mo Hou, and sure enough, there''s a lot of money!" many craftsmen secretly said in their hearts.


    In Chang''an City, the reputation of the Mohist school is almost the same as that of the God of wealth. Countless people benefit from it wherever they go. Now it seems that the rumors are true.


    "Of course, after receiving the grace of the emperor, you naturally want to be loyal to the monarch. The firearms prison is directly under the jurisdiction of your majesty, and the secret recipe of gunpowder is a secret of the imperial court. You must strictly keep all your secrets in the firearms prison confidential and shall not disclose them to anyone, including your family. If you find the leak, you will be punished as a crime of bullying the monarch!" Merton said sternly.


    "The crime of bullying the king!"


    All the craftsmen were shocked. It was a great crime to kill their heads and nodded again and again.


    "In the future, you can go home and have a family reunion every ten days. If you have something to go out, you must be escorted by a hundred riders to ensure safety. Captain Xue, you are responsible for this." Merton turned to Xue Rengui.


    Xue Rengui said solemnly, "you must live up to the trust of marquis mo."


    The craftsmen were awed, but seeing Merton''s various protective measures, they immediately realized how important what they had done.


    After Merton explained to the craftsman, he turned and looked at the three eldest sons.


    "In the future, the three of you must deliver the raw materials needed by the firearms prison in the middle of the night, but there will be a decree issued by the imperial court to ensure that you can travel freely during the curfew." Merton ordered.


    The three nodded solemnly.


    "At the same time, the gunpowder made by the firearm supervisor must also be taken away by the hundred horses in the middle of the night. They must be taken to a secret place for preservation." Merton looked at Xue Rengui. The separation of gunpowder production and storage is the best way to prevent accidents.


    Xue Rengui nodded. Xi Junmai had already told him about it.


    The production of black powder is very simple. What Merton has done is to keep the powder formula as secret as possible. Now the Taoist waidan sect has been caught by Merton. As long as it is kept secret in the powder production formula, Datang will certainly be able to maintain a leading edge in the future heat weapons. In the future, we will certainly be able to avoid the historical tragedy of being held back by the West with guns.


    This is the greatest effort Merton can make for future generations, and it is also the greatest responsibility and obligation as a transgressor.


    After Merton settled everything, he was satisfied and said in a high voice: "this sacrifice announces that from now on, the firearms prison will be officially established."


    With Merton''s order, the monsters that shocked the seven continents of later generations were quietly established.

 Chapter 493

    In the palace!


    Li Shimin listened to pound''s respectful report to the firearms supervisor. When he heard Merton''s arrangement, he was relieved.


    "That''s good. In this way, Taoist priest Shenxiao''s tragedy will not be repeated." Li Shimin said.


    Even he could not find anything wrong with this fire prevention arrangement, so that the fire threat of the firearm prison would be minimized.


    And although Li Shimin is usually rude to Merton, if he doesn''t pay attention to it, he won''t let the most elite hundred horses go to guard the firearms prison.


    Moreover, Merton is not only very important to Mohism, but also important to the whole Tang Dynasty. The two ink technology exhibitions have fully proved the value of Mohism and Merton. If Merton has a mistake, it may be the biggest loss of the Tang Dynasty.


    "So, Merton stays in the firearm prison honestly." Li Shimin is surprised. He hasn''t heard the news of the Mohist School for many days. He''s really not used to it.


    Pound bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Mo has been living and eating in the firearm prison recently. He has urged the firearm supervisor to hurry up for days, but he has not stepped out of the firearm prison."


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "is this your boy to save money, even the meal money?"


    Pound grinned and didn''t answer this. He presented a memorial and said, "this is the discount for doubling the salary of the firearm supervisor presented by Marquis mo. please read it."


    "Double the salary!" Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton is a good boy. He can''t defeat his own family. He can defeat the imperial court. Moreover, for the craftsman of the firearm prison, he first resets the imperial villa, then provides free medical treatment, and finally doubles his salary. It''s a typical loser style.


    He has no objection to doubling the salaries of these craftsmen. He attaches great importance to gunpowder. This weapon that can destroy cities and pass is the foundation for the Tang Dynasty to base itself on the world! After all, the artisans in the firearms prison are restricted, and more compensation should be made.


    However, when he saw one of the obscure names on the memorial, he immediately narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Merton, you little catfish are really slippery. It turned out that he wanted to double his salary."


    I saw Merton secretly add his name to the salary increase Memorial. Unfortunately, it was discovered by the sharp eyed Li Shimin.


    With a big hand, Li Shimin erased Merton''s name and said, "except for Merton, all the other salaries have doubled."


    "Yes!" pound answered.


    "How is the gunpowder made now!" Li Shimin breathed again and asked happily.


    Pang Deying reported: "according to Deng Chong''s report, the first batch of about 5000 kg of gunpowder has been made. We will wait for Baiqi to send it to the gunpowder base."


    "Five thousand jin!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.


    Merton spends a lot of money, but he does things quickly. He can produce 5000 kilograms of gunpowder in ten days. When he goes on the war, he will be able to produce tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder, enough for the battle of Tuyuhun.


    Merton''s proposal for the production and storage of gunpowder and various confidentiality measures have won Li Shimin''s heart,


    "No wonder the secrecy work is so good, even..." Li Shimin smiled and stopped.


    No matter how well Merton did his secret work, he still couldn''t escape his eyes, but the only thing that annoyed him was that he hasn''t been able to crack Merton''s love letter to the password so far.


    "Don''t let me catch the real evidence!" Li Shimin sneered.


    When the will of doubling Li Shimin''s salary was sent to the firearm prison, the whole firearm prison immediately boiling.


    "Thank you, Lord sacrifice!" all the craftsmen bowed sincerely when they met Merton.


    As an ordinary craftsman, all he wants is to support his family. Although the task of the firearm supervisor is a little dangerous and demanding, when he sees the double salary, everyone''s complaints have long disappeared.


    "That''s what everyone deserves!" Merton smiled, but he couldn''t help bleeding in his heart. Li Shimin was so stingy that everyone''s salary doubled, but his salary remained unchanged. Isn''t this an opportunity to retaliate?


    It has been a full month since the reconstruction of the firearm prison. Tomorrow is a holiday. When the sun goes West, artisans leave happily under the escort of hundreds of riding soldiers.


    "Isn''t lord Mo going back?" Xue Rengui asked strangely when he saw that everyone had gone, but Morton still didn''t move.


    Merton''s face suddenly stiffened, shook his head and said, "Mo is entrusted by the emperor. The firearms supervisor has not made any achievements. It''s all right to go back to the Mo house. If you don''t, you''d better continue to specialize in firearms in the firearms supervisor."


    Xue Rengui immediately said with admiration: "Lord Mo is really loyal and a model of our generation."


    Merton''s face turned red. He didn''t want to go back, but he didn''t dare to go back. Tomorrow is the day when the ink magazine is released, and Liang Zhu will be serialized next time. He didn''t want to be blocked by the people of Chang''an city to send blades, so he had to hide in the firearms prison.


    "Captain Xue, didn''t you go back?" Merton quickly changed the topic.


    Xue Rengui shook his head and said, "the last general''s home is in Hedong. He can''t get home in ten days. He has no relatives in Chang''an city. Naturally, there is no place to go."


    Merton nodded and suddenly asked, "I heard that Xue Xiaowei was originally a good son of Hedong. Why did he suddenly think of joining the army and enter Baiqi."


    Xue Rengui looked at Merton strangely and said, "speaking of it, this matter is also related to Lord mo."


    "Oh!" Merton immediately raised his eyebrows and listened to Xue Rengui.


    "When Lord mohou first entered the Imperial College, he even wrote three poems about the frontier fortress. Each sentence is well-known and fascinating. He used to work in agriculture at home, but he has some strength. After listening to the three poems about the frontier fortress by Lord mohou, he is passionate. He wants to join the battlefield immediately. After entering the army, he happens to catch up with the selection of Baiqi. When he admires Chang''an City, he joined Baiqi." Xue Rengui said proudly.


    Merton suddenly realized that the butterfly effect was actually the effect of his own frontier fortress three poems. In addition, with Xue Rengui''s skill, it must be his due intention to join Baiqi.


    "I didn''t expect you and me to have such fate. It''s God''s will to work together at the moment." Merton said with a guilty heart.


    Xue Rengui nodded deeply, sighing the wonder of fate.


    "By the way, I like mohou''s Ink magazine very much, especially the Liang Zhu made by mohou. I can''t get tired of reading it!" Xue Rengui said excitedly when he saw the author.


    "Really?" Merton laughed.


    "By the way, I wonder if Liang Shanbo will know about Zhu Yingtai''s daughter next time?" Xue Rengui asked curiously.


    "Er, er, ink magazine will be released tomorrow. You can see that it''s meaningless to disclose it in advance." Merton said and ran away.


    "That''s right!" Xue Rengui nodded deeply.


    Merton returned to the firearms prison and saw Xue Rengui who continued to patrol. He said silently in his heart, "I hope we will still be good friends after tomorrow."

 Chapter 494

    Ten day off.


    Chang''an city was almost three times busier than before. The whole streets and alleys were full of people, but many people gathered at the corner of the street and kept looking forward to what?


    "At this time, why hasn''t the ink magazine been delivered!" Li Chengcheng kept looking at the street.


    "Yes! I''ve turned over this ink magazine dozens of times, waiting to see Liang Zhu?" the butcher of the butcher''s shop looked at the ink magazine in his hand and lamented. Who could have thought that a strong man with five big and three thick would like this love article.


    "I don''t know if Liang Shanbo, a nerd, will see through Zhu Yingtai''s identity. It''s hard to come back once Zhu Yingtai leaves."


    Others shook their heads and sighed that in this era, it is shocking for women to dress up as men to read. It is almost impossible to go to study again after returning home.


    "Eh! Coming!" the old man in Tsing Yi suddenly saw the figure of a newsboy and said in surprise.


    "Newspaper seller, give me an ink magazine!" shouted the old man in Tsing Yi.


    The newsboy shook his head and said, "elder, forgive me. This is a Confucian journal, not an ink journal."


    "Confucian journal!" people somehow felt disappointed.


    "The Confucian journal is also half a month?" the old man in Tsing Yi didn''t understand. According to the calculation, the publishing time of the Confucian journal hasn''t started yet?


    The newsboy said politely, "the elders don''t know. Confucian journals have also been revised. In the future, Confucian journals will be published every ten days."


    People suddenly realized that Confucianism magazine was right with ink magazine this time, which was the time to change it in advance.


    "I''ve subscribed to the Confucian journal. There should be mine!" Li Chengcheng stretched out his hand.


    The newsboy nodded and sent a Confucian journal.


    "Give me one too!" the old man in Tsing Yi took out a penny and said.


    "Give us one too!" the people on one side paid one after another. The ink magazine didn''t arrive. It''s better to read a Confucian magazine first to pass the time.


    After all, the quality of Confucian journals is not bad, and many people have paid for them.


    After a while, Confucianism magazine took the opportunity to sell a lot.


    At the same time, every Confucian scholar in Chang''an City picked up the Confucian journal and read it.


    This issue of the Confucian journal is also the popular articles of many great scholars. If they are knowledgeable, they may be thought-provoking. However, people always think that these articles that are usually regarded as treasures taste the same as Jue wax, and they are not interested at all. What they think about is the Liang Zhu, who has no literary grace at all.


    Not only one person, but almost everyone. They quickly floated the articles of great scholars, suddenly saw the last page and suddenly raised their interest.


    "Nishan academy refutes the rumor!"


    Everyone was stunned. Isn''t Nishan Academy where Liang Zhu studied?


    All the people who saw the Confucian journal were stunned. They immediately cheered up and looked at it.


    "What, master Ma of Nishan academy denied that Liang Zhu was in Nishan academy and asked mojiazi to publish a newspaper apology?" they immediately looked at each other.


    After a little thought, they suddenly realized that Ma Fuzi was protecting the reputation of Nishan Academy.


    "Is this person stupid to read? If his academy has this matter, it will not be greatly famous. That can be denied?" many people shook their heads and sighed.


    However, they did not expect that editor in chief ma not only denied that Liang Zhu had done a worse thing in Nishan academy, that is, spoilers.


    "What! Zhu Yingtai betrothed others!"


    "Liang Shanbo died, Zhu Yingtai died!"


    Many people were in an uproar when they saw the Confucian journal. Although the story of Liang Zhu has not spread in many places, it is not well known in Chang''an city. Most people do not know the plot of Liang Zhu and are immersed in Liang Zhu''s beautiful and pure love. This is the reason why thousands of people look forward to Liang Zhu.


    However, when editor in chief Ma spoiled the ending of Liang Zhu in advance, there was an uproar.


    "Master Ma is really hateful! He even spoiled in advance. What''s the meaning of this!"


    "The MOH family, who is also a novelist, will certainly not write according to real people and facts."


    Everyone talked about it one after another. No matter how the outcome of Mohist school was written, they all hated the spoiler act of editor in chief ma.


    "If Mohist dares to write like this, I will certainly not spare him." the butcher merchant chopped the dog butcher knife on the chopping board and said angrily.


    "In my opinion, there must be twists and turns. Maybe there will be master Qingtian to preside over justice. It''s not certain that they will be reunited successfully."


    People have different opinions. In this era, the legend of the Tang Dynasty has just sprouted, and most of the stories written end with a great reunion. Really, no one dares to provoke readers to do such a thing.


    Confucian journal station


    Wei Si''an looked at the Confucian journal in his hand and was very excited. He praised the chief editor Ma: "chief editor Ma, this plan is really clever."


    Editor in chief Ma immediately said with complacency on his face: "the owner has flattered me. In this way, since the people have known the outcome of Liang Zhu, the sales volume of ink magazines will drop greatly."


    Naturally, he will not do things that harm others and do not benefit himself. The solution of spoiler Liang Zhu is to crack down on the sales of ink magazines.


    Wei Si''an nodded with satisfaction. As long as he can suppress the momentum of Mozi Liang Zhu, the Confucian journal, with its position in the hearts of students all over the world, will certainly be able to suppress the Mohist journal again.


    "Master Li, what should I do?" Mo San asked Master Li anxiously with a Confucian journal. As a competitor, it''s not just Confucianism magazine looking at Mo magazine, but Mo San always pays attention to Confucianism magazine.


    Mr. Li frowned and looked at Mr. Ma''s denial in the Confucian journal. When Liang Zhu happened in Nishan academy, he sneered: "Mr. Ma, it''s useless for you to be smart all your life. I''m afraid you''re too smart this time."


    He is the only one who has seen the complete text of Liang Zhu. Naturally, he knows how wonderful Liang Zhu is. For an academy, it can be said that it is not too much to immediately become famous all over the world, but master Ma denied it.


    "Without Nishan academy, Hongluo academy and Songshan academy, one day, master Ma will regret it all his life." Master Li shook his head and sneered.


    "The Confucian journal has spoiled Liang Zhu. What should we do?" Mo Sanjiao said anxiously.


    Master Li shook his head and said, "the plot of Liang Zhu is not secret, and many people know it. Moreover, is the Liang Zhu written by Merton a dry sentence in the history books and county chronicles? Even the old man is addicted to Liang Zhu''s plot, let alone others."


    Mo San was a little relieved.


    Master Li waved his big hand and said, "distribute ink magazines immediately."


    Mo San nodded and left.


    Master Li looked at the carts of ink magazines transported to Chang''an City and sneered: "master Ma, I still have a trace of apology. Since you are unkind, don''t blame us for our injustice. Now we are even."


    In Master Li''s hand, he impressively held an ink journal, in which the three big characters of Ma Wencai were impressively in his eyes.


    "Ink magazine is coming!"


    When a group of newsboys appeared in the streets of Chang''an City, everyone was excited.


    "Zhu Yingtai is leaving home. I don''t know if Liang Shanbo can see through Zhu Yingtai''s daughter this time."


    "It''s hard for me! Liang Shanbo is a standard nerd."


    People picked up ink magazines and turned directly to the last page of Liang Zhu. They didn''t even bother to read the headlines on the front page.


    "Send each other on the 18th!"


    When they saw this topic, they knew that they were seeing off, and couldn''t wait to see it down.


    "The male goose passes in front, and the female goose calls her brother behind."


    "You and I have a good match. Cowherd and Weaver Girl cross the magpie bridge."


    "Look at the two shadows at the bottom of the well. A man and a woman are smiling."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the way, Zhu Yingtai constantly hinted at his daughter''s body. Unfortunately, Liang Shanbo really seemed as stupid as a cow and couldn''t understand it at all. Until the two were separated, Liang Shanbo still didn''t see through Zhu Yingtai''s daughter.


    "This liang Shanbo is really an elm head. Zhu Yingtai almost said it directly, but he couldn''t understand it." the people were anxious to scratch their ears and gills. They couldn''t bear it. They wanted to twist Liang Shanbo''s ears and tell him.


    "You boy, if you read like Liang Shanbo in the future, be careful of your ass." in a family, the father held an ink magazine in his hand. When he saw that he was in a hurry, he hated his son practicing calligraphy.


    The son suddenly felt wronged and said in his heart, "who is Liang Shanbo?"


    "Nerd!" Chang''an City sighed and felt sorry for Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai.


    It has to be said that sending each other on the 18th is a very wonderful part of Liang Zhu. People can''t help attracting them, and it also depicts Liang Zhu vividly.


    "If I say so, why doesn''t Zhu Yingtai know?" the merchant butcher sighed with a sigh.


    "It''s precious that a woman can do this," the old man shook his head.


    The biggest reason why Liang Zhu''s story is immortal is that their love is very pure and they abide by etiquette.


    "If I say so, they will regret it for life." Li Chengcheng lamented.


    Coupled with the spoilers of Confucian journals, it immediately cast a shadow over the future of Liang Zhu and Zhu.


    Sure enough, after Zhu Yingtai came home, he learned that the reason why Zhu Yingtai came home was that he had ordered a marriage for Zhu Yingtai, a match for each other.


    "It''s easy to do! Parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words are voluntary. As long as Zhu Yingtai doesn''t want to, the marriage can''t be done." the merchant butcher disagreed.


    The old man in Tsing Yi said solemnly, "Liang Zhu was in the Western Jin Dynasty, but not now. At that time, his parents ordered the matchmaker to marry. In addition, his parents have received the bride price from the Ma family. According to the previous rules, this marriage has been completed.


    In addition, the Ma family is not an ordinary family, but the son of the prefect. I''m afraid it''s very difficult to repent.


    Sure enough, with the development of the plot, Liang Shanbo went to Zhu Yingtai''s house to ask for relatives at the instigation of his teacher''s mother. Unfortunately, it was too late. Although the two fought in every way, under the feudal ethics, all their efforts were in vain.


    After the balcony meeting, the two met in the body of men and women. They told each other of their love for each other and agreed to live in different beds and die in the same cave. Directly touched by countless people.


    "Parents'' orders, really good?" many people sigh in their hearts.


    Although everyone knows that the reason why Mozi wrote Liang Zhu is for his favorite, they can''t help sighing when they see Liang Zhu''s futile struggle under the rigid marriage contract system.


    Although everyone already knows that the end is doomed, the more so, the more sad.


    When he saw that Zhu Yingtai was forced to marry Ma Wencai, Liang Shanbo died of depression. The whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.


    "What! Liang Shanbo is really dead!"


    "Zhu Yingtai is so pathetic!"


    "Ma Wencai is really despicable. He knows that Zhu Yingtai has a heart, but he still forces Zhu Yingtai to marry."


    Classics are classics. Even if there is a difference of thousands of years, Liang Zhu caused no small sensation in Datang. For a moment. The whole city mourned Zhu Yingtai, the whole city scolded Ma Wencai, and all the people sighed Liang Shanbo.


    Since ancient times, there has been a tragedy with deep love. Tragedy is to destroy beautiful things for people to see. Liang Zhu''s love is not beautiful. He made a bow at Caoqiao. His classmates spent three years sending each other on the 18th and meeting on the terrace. Merton spent a lot of pen and ink to show beautiful love pictures in front of everyone, but mercilessly destroyed them.


    "MOH family!" said countless people gnashing their teeth. At this moment, Merton suddenly became the public enemy of the whole people,


    This is a novel. People originally thought that Merton would break the Convention and arrange a twists and turns to a happy ending. No one thought that Mozi really dared to risk the universal condemnation and write Liang Shanbo to death.


    However, at the moment, Liang Shanbo has been depressed and ended. How can everyone be happy? Doesn''t that mean Liang Zhu is doomed to be impossible together.


    "Mo family, dare to kill Liang Shanbo? Do you really think I dare not cut you?" the merchant butcher angrily stabbed, and a bloody dog head fell in response.


    "No, Liang Zhu is not over yet!" Li Chengcheng said in surprise.


    At the end of the ink magazine, he wrote impressively: "predict what will happen next, and listen to the next chapter."


    At this moment, everyone has never looked at these words so kindly. As long as the story is not over, everything is not over.


    The merchant butcher quickly picked up the dog''s head, put the knife into the scabbard and said, "Mo family, you''d better write an immortal to save Liang Shanbo in the next issue, otherwise... Hum!"


    Many people also put back the bricks, kitchen knives and shovels in their hands. Rao is so, but there are still many loyal Liang Shanbo fans wandering in front of the Mo mansion, shouting to let Merton revive Liang Shanbo.


    The Mo mansion was so frightened that it immediately closed the gate.


    "Fortunately, the young master is not at home," said fuber with a fluke look on his face.


    Ziyi''s eyes were red, and he said with a sad face: "young master, it''s true. How did you write Liang Shanbo to death, which made people cry."


    "No, we should inform the young master quickly, otherwise it would be bad if the young master didn''t know and was surrounded by these people." a Mohist boy exclaimed.


    Fubo looked at more and more people gathered outside the door and said with a bitter smile: "I''m afraid the young master had expected today and would not come back directly. Moreover, the young master hid in the firearms prison. I''m afraid that''s the safest place."


    Soon, Chang''an County government dispatched a large number of government servants, which dispersed the crowd.


    Soon, the news that a large number of Liang Zhu fans besieged Mo Fu immediately spread all over Chang''an City and immediately became a big joke in Chang''an city.


    They all shouted that they deserved it and said in a hate voice: "MOH family, you also have today!"

 Chapter 495

    "It''s a pity for Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai!" in the legislative hall, the empress Chang sun''s eyes were red. She looked at the ink magazine and burst into tears. Only for a woman, who doesn''t want to have a perfect love, even the queen can''t avoid vulgarity.


    In fact, it''s not just the empress Chang sun. There are sobs in the whole palace. In the harem, it''s very boring. Merton''s Liang Zhu brought many hopes and joy to the palace. However, Merton wrote that when Liang Shanbo died, everyone''s mood can be imagined.


    "Guanyin maidservant, don''t be sad. I''ll let Morton change the ending." Li Shimin shouted the nickname of empress Chang sun in his mouth and hurriedly advised him. In his impression, he never saw empress Chang sun cry, even when the Xuanwu Gate changed.


    "What to change? This is the original ending of Liang Shanbo, but my concubine couldn''t accept it at once!" the eldest Sun Queen wiped her tears with embarrassment.


    She is knowledgeable and reasonable. Naturally, she knows that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai are tragedies in all versions of Liang Zhu, but most of those historical books are simple records. After reading them, they just sigh with regret, and there is no big wave in their hearts.


    The reason why there was such a big storm in what Merton wrote is that Merton laid the groundwork very well a few times ago and showed Liang Zhu and Zhu vividly in front of everyone. In addition, the accusation''s criticism of traditional ethics naturally aroused the resonance of everyone and made people can''t help bringing it into it. Only then can there be the scene of Liang Shanbo''s death and the collapse of everyone''s emotions.


    Li Shimin glanced and said, "don''t worry, Guanyin maid. Merton is very timid and will certainly not do anything stupid to annoy the public. In the next issue, I can guarantee that there will be a turn for the better. I don''t know if there will be a miracle doctor to resurrect Liang Shanbo. Liang Zhu and I will walk together."


    Li Shimin thinks he knows Merton well, but he just guesses the ending, but he doesn''t guess the process.


    Empress Chang sun was in a stable mood for a long time. She looked at Li Shimin angrily and said, "you are timid. You are wrong. Merton is not timid at all. Instead, she is bold. If she is timid, how can you and I compare with our parents?"


    "What?" Li Shimin was stunned. When he thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized that although Merton''s move was to correct the name of Princess Changle, it didn''t mean that if they blocked the two people, it would create "if it was published one day in advance, it would certainly cause a strong rebound in ink, and maybe advance ink again." Wei Si''an analyzed.


    Editor in chief Ma frowned and wanted to say that it would advance the Confucian journal, but he couldn''t say that. The Confucian journal was just a grass-roots creation. Even if he dug a lot of carvers from the ink journal and major printing houses, it couldn''t compare with the ink journal that has been running for a year. This time, he has made every effort to issue it at the same time with the ink journal. If he goes ahead in advance, I''m afraid it will only bring down the Confucian journal.


    Seeing editor in chief Ma''s acquiescence, Wei Sian was relieved. Editor in chief Ma and Quan Wanji considered the impact, while Wei Sian considered the cost.


    Printing newspapers and periodicals is a loss making business. A newspaper and periodical will definitely lose money by a single penny. What they rely on is only advertising fees. Confucian magazines rely on the great righteousness of Confucianism, and many advertisements are not answered. While ink magazines are popular because of Liang Zhu, their circulation has increased greatly, and their advertising fees have risen again and again. Their form is much better than Confucian magazines.


    Even if it costs money, Confucian journals can''t compare with ink journals. Ink journals are supported by the mammoth Mexican family and have strong financial resources. Confucian journals can only make the Wei family resist. The Wei family has a big business and needs a lot of money. The two industries of grain and cloth have been suppressed by Merton one after another, and they can''t afford to consume so much.


    If the Confucian journal is five days ahead of schedule, the market will be equally divided with the ink journal. In addition, the influence of the Confucian journal, even if it is not comparable with the ink journal, can at least make the Confucian journal balance its revenue and expenditure. This is the best time to save the whole Confucian journal.


    "So, isn''t it that we admit defeat first?" chief editor Ma said reluctantly.


    Wei Si''an comforted: "the Confucian journal has made such achievements. At the moment, we wait for the opportunity."


    Editor in chief Ma had no choice but to give up.


    Firearms prison.


    Merton naturally didn''t know that the Confucian journal had begun to avoid the edge. At the moment, he was carefully looking at Xue Rengui with an angry face in front of him.


    "Liang Shanbo is really dead?" Xue Rengui asked painfully.


    Merton laughed and said, "it''s just a novel. It can''t be true."


    Xue Rengui''s hand holding the knife suddenly turned green and looked at Merton with bad eyes.


    Merton changed the topic and said, "if Xue Xiaowei is Liang Shanbo, there can be a way to break the game."


    Xue Rengui immediately darkened his face, shook his head and said, "the bride price has been received and the engagement has been made. There is no turning back."


    Merton nodded: "so it''s already doomed. Liang Zhu''s love seems beautiful, but it can''t stand any twists and turns and resist the pressure of the secular world."


    Xue Rengui asked, "what about you, Mo Hou?"


    Merton suddenly heard the speech and knew the meaning of Xue Rengui''s question. Since the outcome of Liang Zhu is doomed, he is not facing the same dilemma as Liang Zhu.


    Merton said firmly, "at least I will fight, fight hard, and not do nothing like Liang Shanbo."


    Xue Rengui immediately hoped: "so, the next issue of Liang Zhu.................."


    "There will be a satisfactory ending," Merton said with a positive face.


    Xue Rengui then put down his hand holding the handle of the knife and continued to patrol with joy.


    Merton watched Xue Rengui leave with a sigh of relief. When the author wrote the dead protagonist, it was really dangerous after meeting true love powder.


    "I hope we will still be friends after the next issue." Merton looked at Xue Rengui''s back and sighed. He didn''t know how Xue Rengui would react when he learned the final outcome of Liang Zhu.

 Chapter 496

    "Touch!"


    In front of the firearm prison, a steel knife was heavily placed in front of Merton.


    Merton looked at the visitor and said helplessly, "don''t you come to cut me because of Liang Shanbo''s death!"


    The man opposite said coldly, "what do you say? Write a Liang Shanbo, which makes me shed many tears. How do you calculate this account?"


    "How about making you another weapon?" Merton asked carefully.


    "It''s almost the same!" Qin Huaiyu laughed, put away the steel knife and hugged Merton heavily.


    "Go away, I don''t love Longyang!" Morton pushed Qin Huaiyu away with a disgusted face.


    Qin Huaiyu immediately said with an insulted face, "who was the man Chang''an who loved Longyang before?"


    Merton''s face was stiff. He quickly stopped pestering on this topic and asked, "haven''t you joined the army? How can you find the firearm supervisor?"


    Qin Huaiyu immediately said, "I didn''t leave my post without permission, but I came to you specially by the general!"


    "The order of the general!" Morton was awestruck. He knew that Qin Huaiyu had directly entered Li Jing''s subordinates when he joined the army.


    Qin Huaiyu personally came to invite Merton. Obviously, it was Li Jing who came to invite Merton.


    After Morton explained to the firearms supervisor, he immediately got up and left with Qin Huaiyu.


    In the sixteen guards camp.


    Merton had always known the sixteen guards before, but he didn''t know that the sixteen guards camp was in the west mountain on the edge of Chang''an city. Almost all the troops were paying close attention to training, and everywhere they went was killing.


    "This is the main force of the western expedition!" Merton was deeply shocked.


    Qin Huaiyu nodded proudly and said, "yes, there are 12000 people in each of the 16 guards, nearly 200000 people in total. However, according to the will of the imperial court, as long as there are six guards in the western expedition, the right guard directly under General Li will go outside, and the other 15 guards only take five guards. Brother Mo can imagine how fierce the competition is."


    The imperial court of the western expedition had already reached a conclusion. Only 60000 guards were dispatched, and the rest continued to defend the capital. In addition, elite troops were dispatched from all over the country to fight against Tuyuhun.


    It''s not that the imperial court doesn''t want to send too many troops, but that the burden of food and grass is too heavy. Even with the convenience of brick roads, the food and grass consumed by 200000 troops every day is an astronomical figure.


    Merton looked at the heavily armed soldiers, but his blood was boiling. He sighed in his heart. I''m afraid this is the most powerful army in the world!


    "How can we be selected for the western expedition?" Merton asked. For the army, every war is an opportunity to obtain military merit. For generals, military merit is a title. For ordinary generals, military merit is a land reward. Naturally, no guard wants to miss this opportunity.


    Qin Huaiyu said proudly, "naturally, the whole army is performing martial arts, and the winner will have the opportunity to march to the West."


    Merton immediately marveled that Li Jing was worthy of the name of the military God. In this way, he could not only select the strongest soldiers, but also let the officers and soldiers of the 16th guard train hard, which greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the 16th guard.


    Under the leadership of Qin Huaiyu, Merton walked all the way to the Chinese Army account of the 16th guard.


    "Meet the general, Lord Mo has invited him!" Qin Huaiyu bowed to the military account.


    "Come in!" Li Jing''s voice came from the military tent.


    Merton opened the curtain and entered the Chinese army tent. Sure enough, he saw Li Jing sitting in the main position. On both sides, there were 16 generals, including Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde.


    Merton is well-known in Chang''an city. Even the 16th guard is well-known. Many people looked at Merton curiously when they saw Merton coming in.


    "Meet the generals!" Merton dared not be rude and quickly bowed forward.


    Seeing this, Li Jing smiled and said, "don''t worry. I won''t let you rewrite the ending of Liang Zhu today."


    The generals burst into laughter. It is obvious that the matter that the people of Chang''an blocked the door and asked the Mo house to rewrite the ending has spread to the 16th guard because of Liang Zhu these days.


    Morton smiled awkwardly and quickly hugged his fist and said, "what''s your drive, Mo will follow."


    Li Jing stretched out his hand and said, "come on, bring up things and people!"


    Morton turned curiously and saw Qin Huaiyu come in, but they were wearing civilian clothes and holding armor and weapons in each hand.


    "Do you know these three people?" Li Jing asked.


    Merton nodded.


    Li Jing asked again, "do you know the things in the hands of the three?"


    "This is a weapon produced by the Mohists," Merton admitted honestly.


    "Do you know what your three good brothers did with Mohist weapons?" Li Jing patted the table and said.


    Merton couldn''t help rolling his eyes and said in his heart, "what can happen? If there is a big event, how can Cheng Yaojin and the three of them sit there safely?"


    Merton immediately turned his face and said, "general, don''t be soft hearted. These three people are stubborn. If they make mistakes, please punish them according to law. I have no complaints."


    Qin Huaiyu and the three immediately glared at the speech. If they weren''t in the military account at the moment, the three would have come forward to report their old fist to Merton and punish them. Of course, Merton didn''t complain.


    Li Jing said with a smile, "they all say your boy is very slippery. Sure enough, I didn''t blame you."


    The generals immediately laughed. Naturally, they were not pedantic people who could get into this position. Even Cheng Yaojin laughed happily.


    Merton immediately smiled and said, "that''s the boy. General Li''s military skills are like a mountain. It''s useless to plead."


    Li Jing glanced at Qin Huaiyu and said, "these three people have wantonly competed in the army with Mohist swords. Countless swords have been damaged since January! Even the general''s sword is included. Mo boy, how do you calculate this account?"


    Merton looked at Qin Huaiyu in surprise. Suddenly, with the character of the three Sao Bao, he got the sword armor specially made by the Mohist school. Naturally, he would not miss the opportunity to show off. The ordinary sword is naturally not the opponent of the sword produced by the Mohist school. The matter became more and more serious. Unexpectedly, it surprised Li Jing in the end.


    Merton said reluctantly, "since the weapons of the Mohist family have damaged General Li''s sword, boy, I''ll order the Mohist village to make a new sword to compensate the general."


    "What about us? The swords used by the dignified sixteen guards general can''t even compare with ordinary soldiers, can it be said?" Qin Qiong said impolitely, asking for them not only by herself, but also by everyone here.


    He knew in his heart that the Mohist sword could not even compare with Li Jing''s sword, and it was not too much to call it a peerless magic weapon. Everyone had been greedy for it for a long time, but was embarrassed to ask for it at the beginning.


    Merton is a newcomer to the military. If he can make a good relationship with your generals with a set of weapons, it will not be of any benefit to Merton in the future.


    Merton said, "the steel used in this sword is the special steel produced by the Mohist school. If you like it, in addition to the sword, I will send you a full set of armour and stomach some day to make a complete plan."


    "Mo boy is cheerful. I will vent my anger for you if I am bullied in the army in the future." Cheng Yaojin said bluntly.


    The other generals of the 16th guard suddenly looked happy. As generals, who doesn''t love peerless swords? Qin Huaiyu was invincible in the military camp with swords produced by Mojia village. No sword can compete with it. Who can refuse such weapons?


    What''s more, there is a full set of armor stomach. The sword has no eyes on the battlefield. A armor made of special steel can be said to have more lives on the battlefield.


    "So, such swords and swords can be mass produced in Mojia village?" Li Jing finally showed her fox tail and asked.


    Merton felt a move in his heart. He immediately knew that Li Jing could invite him specially. Naturally, it was not just because of a sword. At present, he nodded and said, "the formation conditions of this steel are harsh and the output is not much, but it is enough to refine some swords. I don''t know how much the general wants."


    "A thousand sets!" Li Jing said to the lion.


    Merton shook his head and said with a wry smile, "even if the Mohist village has saved for a year, there are not so many materials!"


    "500 sets! No less, no less." Li Jing said. It was obvious that Li Jing was going to use these weapons as a top soldier.


    Merton thought for a moment, nodded and said, "five hundred sets is five hundred sets, but the boy has a condition."


    Li Jing got what he wanted. He was very happy in his heart. With a big hand, he said, "just say it. If the general can do it, just speak."


    "On the way, I saw a small valley not far away. The boy wanted to test some gunpowder weapons in this small valley, which needed the cooperation of sixteen guards." Merton said bluntly.


    Gunpowder is a secret to ordinary people, but it is not a secret to the general of the 16th guard. In addition, Merton''s position as firearm supervisor is well known.


    "What''s the difficulty? The valley will be put in the firearm prison in the future!" Li Jing said indifferently.


    Merton smiled. Since there was gunpowder, it was impossible to rush up directly with gunpowder. Merton from later generations would naturally give full play to the power of gunpowder.


    Of course, testing gunpowder weapons in Chang''an City firearms supervision will certainly not work, and other places are worried about insecurity. What is more suitable than the 16th guard station?


    Li Jing thought he had made a good deal, but he didn''t know how much he regretted his decision in the future.


    "Boom!"


    "Boom! Boom!"


    A loud explosion resounded through the whole valley. Even after being blocked by the hills, the whole right back was still clearly audible.


    "This is what Mozi called gunpowder weapon!" Li Jing frowned at the direction of the small valley.


    "Go back, general! Now the firearms commissioner has blocked the valley from anyone." the pro guard frowned.


    Today, the production of firearm supervisors has been on the right track. They only need to produce step by step and follow the process. Merton only needs to check one process every day, and immediately pulls a truck of gunpowder to start experimenting with gunpowder weapons.


    "Boom!"


    Another loud noise came, and the whole valley shook three times.


    "Cough, cough, cough!"


    Merton and Taoist priest Changsheng came out of the valley one by one with black and gray faces.


    "Mohou, these gunpowder are burning too fast. I can''t react at all!" Taoist Changsheng said with lingering fear. This time he didn''t run fast. I guess he almost couldn''t come back.


    Merton nodded, suddenly patted his thigh and suddenly said, "yes! How can gunpowder have no lead."


    "Lead, what''s the matter? Lead!" Taoist Changsheng wondered.


    Merton explained: "the lead is the thing used to ignite the gunpowder. We can mix the gunpowder with some impurities to slow down the ignition speed, and then make the slower burning gunpowder into ropes and connect it with the gunpowder. In this way, we will have enough time to leave after igniting the gunpowder."


    Changsheng Taoist priest immediately brightened his eyes and said excitedly, "Mo Hou Yingming!"


    They left happily, and the whole sixteen guards were clean.


    However, they were quiet for two days. On the third day, they had come back happily. The whole valley suddenly began to rumble and make a loud noise.


    "Kill!" the officers and men of the right guard shouted in unison.


    "Boom!" a loud noise came from the valley.


    "Stab!" the right guard shouted again.


    "Boom!" again in the valley.


    One man against ten thousand people, but he didn''t lose the slightest.


    The officers and men of the right guard finally finished the drill and were about to withdraw. They only heard a shrill pig cry from the valley.


    After a while, a domestic pig was howling and limping from the direction of the valley. Behind it, mojiazi was chasing after him with several hundred horses.


    Li Jing could not help but draw from the corner of his mouth and was about to signal the soldiers to fight. However, he saw the leading hundred riding soldiers put up their long bow and suddenly shot an arrow right in the pig''s eye and through his brain.


    "Good skill!" cheers came from the right back.


    Li Jing''s glasses lit up immediately. With this skill alone, the whole right back was already numbered.


    "Xue Rengui has seen a general!" it is Xue Rengui who can have such archery.


    "Xue Rengui!" Li Jing nodded admiringly. "With this skill, you will be able to become famous in the army in the future."


    Xue Rengui naturally knew that this person was Li Jing, the military God of the Tang Dynasty. He quickly bowed his hands and thanked him: "thank you, general."


    At the moment, Merton just ran over panting, hurriedly arched his hands to Li Jing, and immediately checked the pig''s scars.


    Merton took out a piece of broken iron from the pig''s stomach and shook his head: "it''s because there''s less gunpowder and there''s a problem with iron!"


    After Merton recorded it in detail, he arched his hand at Li Jing Gong and said, "I''ve offended you these days. Today, this fat pig and three sheep in the valley are regarded as compensation for the firearm supervisor."


    "Good! Mohou is generous!"


    The whole right guard cheered. Although the 16th guard is the elite of the imperial court and has enough food at ordinary times, meat is still rare. Although one pig and three sheep are not enough for the right guard, it is also valuable to see meat.


    However, this is only the beginning. In the next few days, the food of the right back improved greatly.


    Almost every day, there are meat from the firearm supervisor, some fat pigs with their intestines exposed, some whole sheep without scars but bleeding from their orifices, and even a lot of rotten meat broken into pieces.


    On another occasion, ten cattle with only half of their bodies were sent. Although the wounds of these meat had a strange smell, it was difficult to defeat the group soldiers. After cutting off these appearance meat, the others had no impact.


    However, while enjoying the rare meat, the right back soldiers gradually changed their eyes towards the valley.


    That sound like thunder can take away the lives of pigs, sheep and cattle. What if it is used on people? "


    Li Jing looked at the valley with a new sword from the Mohist village in his hand. He sighed in his heart: "he thought he was the peerless magic weapon in his hand, but he didn''t expect that the real peerless magic weapon might be right in front of him."

 Chapter 497

    When Merton made a thunderous sound in the west mountain valley,


    In Chang''an City, there is also another thunder, that is the ending of Liang Zhu


    It''s ten days again! This time, the ink magazine was not delayed. At dawn, the ink magazine had been sent to the streets in advance.


    The whole people of Chang''an City picked up ink magazines and immediately stood still, immersed in them one by one.


    When they saw Zhu Yingtai crying, almost everyone felt sad. The soft hearted people had tears in their eyes. When the Ma family forced them to marry, the whole city cursed Ma Wencai.


    However, even if everyone is looking forward to, the last thing they want to see is that Zhu Yingtai is forced to be helpless and finally agrees to marry Ma Wencai.


    "... Yingtai wants to sacrifice his brother''s grave in plain clothes." at this time, Zhu Yingtai agreed to the only request for marriage.


    "Filial piety clothes and red makeup!


    Everyone couldn''t help taking a deep breath. Since ancient times, red and white things have always collided. In the past, if they encountered such things, they often negotiated with both sides to stagger the dates to avoid collision.


    However, on the day of great joy, Zhu Yingtai was told to wear wedding clothes and filial piety clothes inside. Such a plot is extremely against ethics, but it is such a conflict that everyone still remembers it. In an instant, Zhu Yingtai''s favor rose to the extreme.


    "Since this is the case, why should Zhu Yingtai be forced to marry by Zhu''s father?" Li Chengcheng sighed at the corner of the street.


    Everyone was silent! Everyone knew what was going on, but no one said it.


    Perhaps the relationship between Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is a tragedy in itself, but Mohist Zi has given it too much thoughts on beautiful love.


    At this moment, many enlightened people found how cruel the seemingly beautiful words of parents and matchmakers were. Even if Liang Zhu and Jin Jian fought with death, the final outcome still could not be changed.


    "Parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words are voluntary! At this moment, we really understand the intention of Mohist school!" cheered countless young people.


    Merton''s all-out struggle won the willingness of both sides. Although it only gave men and women a chance to sign, it gave men and women a means of struggle, rather than having no power to fight back like Liang Zhu, so they can only accept it passively.


    Some old people can''t help but feel sad. Many people are even more ashamed. Zhu Yingtai''s parents are more than an example. I''m afraid such parents can be found everywhere in Datang.


    "Maybe Liang Zhusheng''s ending may be different at this time?" such an idea suddenly arose in the hearts of all the people.


    With the development of the plot, when Zhu Yingtai''s sedan team passed Liang Shanbo''s grave, Zhu Yingtai got off the sedan to worship Liang Shanbo.


    "Suddenly, the strong wind gathered, the thunder and heavy rain burst, the tomb burst, Zhu Yingtai jumped in, the servant wanted to stop, pulled off his skirt, turned into butterflies and danced with the wind."


    Although the public had long expected the outcome, after all, in some records, Zhu Yingtai finally died, and the two were buried together, which was called the righteous women''s grave.


    On the basis of restoring historical facts, Merton sublimated it.


    "Butterfly!"


    When people saw the butterfly, many people applauded the case.


    After their death, Liang Zhu turned into a butterfly and no longer had to be bound by secular theories. They were happy and free again.


    "The finishing touch!" the crowd exclaimed. The original sadness suddenly raised a trace of hope.


    In Taoism, it is said that Zhuang and Zhou dreamed of butterflies. Although they were separated in the secular world, they turned into butterflies and danced lightly in the world.


    "From then on, the world will think of Liang Zhu when they see butterflies flying! Liang Zhu turns into a butterfly and lives forever!" sighed the old man in Tsing Yi.


    The story of Liang Zhu was originally only spread in a few areas. Now the Liang Zhu written by Merton is probably known to women and children both inside and outside the Tang Dynasty.


    The merchant butcher wiped his tears, put down his dog butcher knife and said, "originally, the Mohist wrote Liang Zhu to death. I was about to settle accounts with him, but when I saw Liang Zhu turning into a butterfly, I let him go this time."


    Throughout Chang''an City, the people who were originally going to besiege Mo Fu again put down their rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves, and one by one picked up the ink magazine in their hands.


    "There''s another word from Mohist school!" Li Chengcheng swept Yu Guang and said in surprise.


    Everyone was surprised. They just sighed. Liang Zhu turned into a butterfly. They were in a trance for a moment. They thought it was over, but they didn''t think there was more.


    Everyone immediately rushed to see the poems of Mohist school, which is the most famous in the Tang Dynasty. Every time they write words, they are well-known.


    "I once said to anyone who catches wild geese, ''once a wild goose is captured, it will be killed. Those who get off the net moan and can''t go, but they throw themselves into the ground and die."


    I bought it and buried it on the Weihe River. I built a stone to know it. It was called ''Yanqiu''. "


    "Wild geese die for love!" the people were stunned. They saw Liang zhuzhong and Zhu Yingtai die for love, but they didn''t expect that a wild goose also said die for love.


    "This is not an empty statement. Since ancient times, the killing of wild geese has been widely spread, and I have heard of it!" the old man in Qingyi nodded.


    , there are not a few rumors of martyrdom in the animal world. For example, according to folklore, once mandarin ducks are paired, they will accompany each other for life. They are regarded as a symbol of love. When one party dies, the other party fasts and soon dies depressed. In addition, swans and others also have the theory of martyrdom.


    "Even geese and swans will die for love. What is love that has such great magic?" a young man felt.


    "This is a question that we have been exploring since ancient times. I''m afraid we don''t even know that we are as smart as Mohists." the old man in Qingyi pointed to the ink magazine and sighed.


    In Ink magazine, Merton asked at the beginning of his words, "ask the world what love is, and teach life and death?"


    Almost everyone was surprised when they saw the first sentence. Although the Tang Dynasty was open, not many people would be so direct. Even the lyrical Tang poetry was nothing but expressing their aspirations and thinking through things.


    What is love in the end, can make Liang Zhu so desperate, entrusted with life and death, but also let characters like Mo Jiazi toss and turn for love.


    "Flying passengers from all over the world, the old wing has been cold and hot for several times. It is fun and bitter to leave, and there are more infatuated children in it. You should say: who is the shadow of the clouds for thousands of miles and the snow for thousands of mountains?"


    They all sighed at once. The wild geese flew south. When they went, they flew together. When they came back, they were alone. What a pain it was to form a single shadow through thousands of mountains.


    Wild geese have feelings, not to mention people!


    Love is the most subtle of human emotions. It can moisten things silently or burn like a flame.


    Maybe everyone can''t tell what love is, but through the words of butterfly butterfly and Yanqiu, I''m afraid everyone has their own answer to love in their hearts.

 Chapter 498

    "Jingwei road is lonely. In those days, the flute and drum were playing, and the desolate smoke is still flat in Chu. How can Chu summon the soul? Mountain ghosts cry in the dark.


    The sky is also jealous. If you don''t believe it, the Orioles and swallows are all loess. For thousands of years, you visit Yanqiu in order to save the poets for singing and drinking. "


    In the Changle palace, Princess Changle held an ink magazine in her hand and read Yanqiu CI again and again.


    If Liang Zhu is to correct her name, and this Yanqiu poem is Merton''s public confession, how can it not move Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle looked at the ink magazine, but her eyes gradually became firm.


    "If you and I are willing, how can we regret for life like Liang Zhu." Princess Changle secretly made several decisions in her heart..


    In Liang Zhu''s tragedy, there is not only the sadness of etiquette and discipline, but also fortune. If Liang Zhu and his wife meet in person as soon as possible, Liang Shanbo will propose marriage before the Ma family, perhaps it will be a different outcome.


    Now they are still unmarried men and unmarried women. If there is any difference between them, if they step into the footsteps of Liang Zhu, I''m afraid they will regret for life.


    Thinking of this, Princess Changle suddenly got up and ordered the maid on duty in front of the Changle hall to say, "there''s something in this palace. Don''t disturb everyone!"


    "Yes!"


    The palace keeper immediately looked at each other and had to obey her orders, but she was uneasy in her heart!


    "Should it be after the princess saw Liang Zhu..." the palace keeper guessed wildly, and was immediately terrified.


    The middle-aged gong''e looked at the closed door of the palace and heard the sound of rummaging inside. With a sigh, she ordered the palace keeper to follow the princess''s will.


    After a long time, Princess Changle suddenly opened the Palace door, dressed up and came out with a radiant face. A group of maids moved in their hearts and suddenly found that Princess Changle seemed different.


    "Princess!" middle-aged gong''e bowed forward.


    Princess Changle nodded. Her voice was soft but firm: "go to the Lizheng palace. The palace will greet the empress mother!"


    "Yes!" said the middle-aged gong-e.


    "Send your royal highness to the princess!"


    The ladies in waiting got up after the ceremony and looked at the figure of Princess Changle leaving. They just felt a flash of gold in front of them and couldn''t help looking down their eyes,


    On the headdress of Princess Changle, a strand of gold is particularly conspicuous.


    "Is it a princess or..."


    The palace maids were surprised that the mysterious woman they had been envious of and guessed was Princess Changle.


    "Greetings to empress Wei!" Princess Changle said politely.


    Shortly after he left the Changle palace, he met imperial concubine Wei and the 10-year-old Princess Linchuan playing in the harem.


    "It''s Changle!" Princess Wei was slightly unhappy when she saw Changle. She had been kind enough to tie the line between her nephew and Princess Changle. Unexpectedly, Princess Changle was unwilling to say it. She even said a bad word. A bad character directly ruined his mother''s nephew''s future.


    "Sister''s jewelry is really beautiful." Princess Linchuan suddenly pointed to the gold wisp on Princess Changle''s head.


    The first full gold gold strand in Jinyu building is to make full gold jewelry popular. It is the crystallization of the common wisdom of all skilled craftsmen. It is naturally amazing.


    Princess Changle smiled and said, "Linchuan is still young. When you grow up, naturally someone will give you jewelry."


    As the imperial concubine, the jewelry she handled was of great natural value. Naturally, she didn''t care about a piece of gold jewelry until Princess Linchuan reminded Princess Wei that she suddenly looked up and noticed the gold strand on Princess Changle''s head. Her eyes shrank and her heart suddenly realized.


    No wonder the gentle and virtuous Princess Changle did not give her face at all and would directly destroy Wei Si''an''s future. The truth is that Princess Changle is a mysterious woman disguised as a man at night.


    Weisi''an slandered her and Merton in front of Princess Changle. He turned around and proposed to Princess Changle for weisi''an. Isn''t this self humiliation? What is it?


    At the moment, imperial concubine Wei couldn''t help being very dissatisfied with Wei Si''an. Her mother''s nephew was so careless that she fell into such an embarrassing situation.


    "Don''t bother aunt Wei. Changle will go to the Lizheng hall to greet her mother." Princess Changle said faintly.


    Wei Guifei nodded with a dry smile.


    If before, as the long Princess of the Tang Dynasty, she disguised herself as a man and made a private love with a man, it must be a scandal in the sky in the palace. However, after the spread of Liang Zhu, the whole wind direction suddenly changed. It seems that the romance between Princess Changle and mojiazi is like Liang Zhu?


    On the night of the Lantern Festival, women disguised as men, a word of love, and the first golden thread in the world was used as a thing of love. Then the Mohists made all kinds of efforts for Princess Changle. Such legendary love makes people envy. Even blasphemy is a sin.


    "Ask what love is in the world and teach life and death!..." imperial concubine Wei couldn''t help but look at the Tai Chi hall. As a woman, who can''t envy a man who is desperate for himself.


    However, although she is a magnificent imperial concubine, she has never enjoyed the emperor''s love, because the emperor''s love has always been in the Lizheng palace, and few can be distributed to other concubines. I''m afraid it''s her turn to be even more pitiful.


    "Mother imperial concubine, when I grow up, I also want such beautiful jewelry." Princess Linchuan said innocently.


    Hearing the speech, imperial concubine Wei hugged the princess of Linchuan and said bitterly: "it''s easy to ask for priceless treasure. It''s rare to have a lover. Although it''s easy to get the golden thread, it depends on who sent it. I hope Linchuan will be so lucky when she grows up!"


    Princess Linchuan''s childish face can''t understand the words between adults. She will only look at the back of Princess Changle who is fading away.


    "Changle!"


    In a pavilion, several princes are watching with interest with ink magazines. They are like caged birds in the palace. They have few opportunities to have fun. While looking at Liang Zhu, they look forward to their other half in the future.


    When they saw Changle coming from a distance, they quickly hid the ink magazine in their hands.


    Li Tai was even more ashamed. He should have stood on the side of Changle to denounce the Mohists, but after watching Liang Zhu, he turned shamefully rebellious. Seeing Princess Changle''s eyes dodging, suddenly his glasses coagulated and looked at the golden wisp there.


    Princess Changle didn''t care. After a little greeting, she went to the Lizheng hall.


    It was not until Princess Changle''s body went away that Li Tai woke up from a dream and hurriedly touched Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian nodded, his fist clenched and his green tendons burst out. Who could have thought that Princess Changle was the mysterious woman, and they foolishly advised Princess Changle to crusade against the Mexican family in front of Princess Changle. It was a shame to the extreme.


    What''s more, they can''t accept it. The mojiazi secretly fell in love with Princess Changle under their eyes, which makes Li Tai and Li Chengqian feel embarrassed and how to get along in the future.


    "MOH family!" they said with one voice.

 Chapter 499

    "Empress mother can be here!" Princess Changle asked outside the Lizheng hall.


    "Princess, wait a minute. Today, the Duke and madam of the Yi kingdom came to see her. The empress is receiving her!" a gong-e replied in a low voice.


    "The wife of Qin Qiong, the Duke of the Yi kingdom?" Princess Changle frowned, and a bad feeling rushed into her heart. Since the marriage proposal of Princess Wei, she is now very sensitive to the meeting of two middle-aged women.


    Now it''s not a new year''s festival. How can the Duke and Lady of the Yi kingdom come to the palace for no reason! I''m afraid there''s only one possibility.


    Propose!


    Princess Changle was in a hurry and hurried into the Lizheng hall. As a long princess, she came to the Lizheng hall on weekdays without reporting.


    Before Princess Changle reached the main hall, she heard the hearty laughter of empress changsun and Mrs. Qin.


    "Today''s young people really don''t understand. Think about us at that time, not only were our parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words, but also lived a lifetime!" Mrs. Qin said softly.


    "Yes!" echoed empress Chang sun.


    Qin Fu Humanitarianism: "if anyone had met before marriage, it might have spread all over the country. Now it''s better to encourage them to meet before marriage. We can''t keep up with the situation?"


    Princess Changle''s heart couldn''t help a click. What she said was a major marriage event. She was in a hurry and stepped into the main hall.


    "I''ll see my mother!" Princess Changle bowed.


    When empress changsun saw Princess Changle, she immediately smiled and said, "Changle is coming. The queen mother is about to send someone to find you?"


    "Come to me! I don''t know what''s important for the mother to find the child?" Princess Changle said calmly.


    "Today, Mrs. Qin came to the palace in person, naturally in order to say a happy husband to Changle." empress Chang sun smiled.


    "I''m afraid the whole Chang''an city will never find such an excellent young man." Mrs. Qin answered.


    Princess Changle sighed in her heart. As expected, there is only one possibility for two middle-aged women to be together.


    "Children don''t marry!" Princess Changle said firmly.


    Mrs. Qin suddenly showed a trace of incomprehension and said, "why?"


    "Thank you for your kindness, madam. Changle already has a lover. No matter how good Changle is, she won''t marry." Princess Changle said stubbornly.


    "Is your lover the one who delivers letters to you every ten days?" empress Chang Sun said, staring at Changle''s headdress


    "Ah!" Princess Changle was suddenly stunned and exclaimed, "empress mother, how do you know?"


    Empress Chang sun snorted coldly, "in this palace, if the empress mother doesn''t even know this little thing, it would be a dereliction of duty!"


    Princess Changle blushed. She thought what she had done was very secret and should be unknown, but who could have thought that she had been under her mother''s eyelids all the time.


    Fortunately, the only good thing is that the letters between her and Merton are encrypted with passwords. No one can see her love letter except her, otherwise it won''t let her die of shame.


    Although Princess Changle blushed with shame, she didn''t flinch. Instead, she summoned up her courage: "it''s true that no one will marry except this person! Thank you for Mrs. Qin''s kindness. Although Qin Huaiyu is also a rare young talent in Chang''an City, it''s really a poor blessing for Changle."


    "Qin Huaiyu?" Mrs. Qin couldn''t help but say in amazement, "I''m here to make a matchmaker. How can I make a matchmaker for my son in person."


    "Ah!" Princess Changle immediately made a big red face. She thought Mrs. Qin was proposing marriage for Qin Huaiyu. Unexpectedly, she made a mistake.


    "Thank you for your kindness!" Princess Changle said firmly.


    Empress Chang sun''s face was solemn and said, "you don''t know who it is? You decide not to marry!"


    Princess Changle said sadly, "please help the mother to complete the child."


    Looking at the gold strand on Princess Changle''s head, Mrs. Qin said strangely, "if I were a concubine, if the person who sent you the gold strand proposed marriage, you wouldn''t want to?"


    "What?" Princess Changle looked at the empress changsun and Princess Changle in disbelief.


    Empress Chang sun looked at the shocked Princess Changle and said helplessly, "today Mrs. Qin came to propose marriage on behalf of Merton!"


    "Empress mother?" Princess Changle was ashamed and buried her head in the arms of empress changsun.


    She originally wanted to clarify her relationship with Merton today to avoid the tragedy of Liang Zhu. Merton was one step faster than her and sent someone directly to get married.


    Mrs. Qin said with a strange look on her face: "when Merton talked to my concubine, my concubine severely blamed him. He has nothing to do with a boy. If there is any defect in the princess''s reputation, it would be a great sin!"


    Empress Chang sun is also worried. If it weren''t for the series of combined boxing of the Mo family, the wind direction of Chang''an City would be reversed, and the reputation of Princess Changle would be damaged.


    Empress changsun looked helplessly at the golden thread on Princess Changle''s head and said, "now the atmosphere has changed. We advocate parents'' orders and matchmakers'' words. Now both mother and matchmaker are here. Since you have also seen Merton, the empress asked you, but would you like to?"


    Princess Changle was buried in the chest of the empress changsun and said, "it''s all up to the mother!"


    Even when she first came here, she had made up her mind to showdown. However, when she decided to die, she was still as shy as an ordinary little girl.


    Empress Chang sun looked at Mrs. Qin and said with a bitter smile, "it''s not easy to be parents! When you don''t want to, it''s all up to your parents. It''s called arranged marriage. If you''re willing to say it''s all up to your parents!"


    Mrs. Qin smiled and said, "poor parents all over the world!"


    Empress changsun patted Princess Changle in her arms. Princess Changle got up with a red face and stood behind empress changsun.


    "Changle''s marriage! We can''t make a decision by ourselves. We need to report it to the emperor." empress changsun apologized to Mrs. Qin.


    For Merton, although the empress changsun had some complaints, they had long disappeared with Merton''s efforts for Princess Changle. In addition, Merton rushed to propose marriage to Princess Changle, which made her more satisfied.


    In addition, she originally owed Changle some money because of her close relatives'' marriage. Naturally, she would not be more hindered by her intention to compensate Princess Changle. Now whether this matter can be accomplished or not depends on Li Shimin''s attitude.


    When Princess Changle heard the speech, she suddenly looked a hundred. She could be coquettish in front of the empress changsun. She didn''t care about gossip. However, the only thing without confidence was to face her father.


    Mrs. Qin nodded clearly. As the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty, Princess Changle naturally married a daughter from a different ordinary family. She considered too many aspects.


    In particular, Merton is the key to the revival of Mohism, and even Li Shimin has to consider it carefully.


    "I''ll go back and wait for the news first." Mrs. Qin got up and said goodbye.

 Chapter 500

    Confucian journal station.


    Editor in chief Ma was filled with emotion when he looked at the finale of Liang Zhu. Naturally, he was familiar with the story of Liang Zhu. Who could have thought that after being rendered by turning butterflies, the mojiazi would have such great magic that the whole of Chang''an city was obsessed with it. Coupled with the sensation caused by a masterpiece of Yanqiu Ci, it was not a simple addition, but an explosive effect.


    Ordinary people marvel at the setting of turning butterflies, and scholars see that almost all Yanqiu words have fallen.


    "This is the Mohist family!" Wei Si''an looked at the latest issue of the Mohist magazine, and his heart was filled with grief and indignation. If he didn''t agree, he would Biao poetry. As expected, it was still the strong style of Mohist family.


    Wei Si''an, it is conceivable that the circulation of this issue of Ink magazine will increase again, and the Confucian magazine can''t catch up even if it flatters the horse. Even in the future, these three issues of Ink magazine will certainly become the eternal good memories of the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help but fluke himself that his previous decision to avoid the edge was really a wise move, otherwise this issue of Confucian journal would certainly hit his head and blood.


    The editor in chief Ma no longer had the confidence he had before. He was silent when he looked at the ink magazine.


    "Master, a letter from the academy!" a student of chief editor Ma hurried forward with a letter.


    Editor in chief Ma said, "but the dean''s article has arrived!"


    The dean of Nishan academy is a famous Confucian in the Tang Dynasty. Once his article is published in the Confucian journal, it will certainly be pursued by countless people. This is also the greatest effort made by editor in chief Ma to improve the sales of Confucian journals.


    The student hesitated and said, "at the same time as the dean''s article, there is also a message from the Dean asking the master to sit down in the Confucian journal. Liang Zhu is in Nishan Academy."


    "What?" editor in chief Ma exclaimed.


    The student nodded bitterly. I''m afraid that before Nishan Academy had time to see the chief editor of the Confucian journal deny Liang Zhu''s article in Nishan academy, it had already sent a letter, which happened to be a time difference.


    "It''s late!"


    Editor in chief Ma felt cold. Now he saw the ending of Liang Zhu and naturally knew the value of Liang Zhu. If any academy could get the bonus of Liang Zhu, it would be famous and famous, and the benefits would be self-evident.


    However, on impulse, he pushed such a great good thing away from Nishan Academy in advance.


    "The editor in chief, Hongluo academy and Songshan academy all asked to publish an article in the next issue of Confucian journal to confirm that they are the statement of Liangzhu Academy." an editor pushed the door and entered.


    Editor in chief Ma suddenly turned pale. Hongluo academy and Songshan academy are as famous as Nishan Academy. The competition is very fierce at ordinary times. They are secretly competing for excellent students, and there are legends of Liang Zhu in both places.


    Nowadays, the legend of butterfly turning of Liang Zhu in Mohist school, together with a poem of Yanqiu, is destined to make Liang Zhu spread for centuries. As the Academy where Liang Zhu studies, it can be said that it carries the best love between Liang Zhu. No matter which academy gets the help of Liang Zhu, Liang Zhu will certainly be able to occupy an advantage, such as adding wings to the tiger.


    This time, Nishan academy took the lead. The legend of Liang Zhu is almost in the bag. However, because of his one-sided words, Nishan academy gave up the opportunity to win the great Tang Dynasty. Before, he was complacent and thought he was smart. Now it seems that he is simply stupid.


    At this moment, the second issue of Confucian journal should have been spread to Nishan Academy. Editor in chief Ma can imagine how angry Nishan academy will be when it sees this issue of Confucian journal, and he will be the biggest traitor of Nishan Academy.


    Wei Si''an looked at editor in chief Ma and suddenly felt pity for each other. The Mo family was an evil family. It was a disaster to oppose him.


    At this moment, a servant of the Wei family suddenly rushed into the Confucian journal, saw Wei Si''an, handed an envelope and said, "young master, master asked me to give it to you immediately. He said there was news from the palace!"


    "News from the palace?" Wei Si''an was shocked and could hear news from the palace. It was only princess Wei.


    "Could it be that there was a turn for the better?" Weisi looked forward to it. After Wei''s father said all kinds of good words, he begged imperial concubine Wei to promise to say some good words to him in the palace at an appropriate time. Could it be that it has become.


    Wesan couldn''t wait to open the envelope in his hand. When he saw the contents, his face suddenly changed wildly, his heart trembled, and his face suddenly turned red!


    "MOH family!" Wei Sian said with gnashing teeth.


    "What''s the matter with the boss?" editor in chief Ma frowned.


    Wei Si''an''s face was uncertain and said, "the favorite of Mohist school has finally been confirmed!"


    Editor in chief Ma was shocked and hurriedly asked, "who is it?"


    "It''s Princess Changle!" said Wei Si''an bitterly.


    Editor in chief Ma suddenly realized that no wonder this woman is so mysterious. Despite the inquiry of the whole Chang''an City, it is still a stone in the sea. No wonder Wei Si''an will come to such an end when he goes to the palace to ask for a marriage. So far, all his doubts have been solved.


    When he learned that it was Princess Changle, all the doubts seemed to explain at the moment.


    Wei Si''an was ashamed and angry, and the fire of jealousy was burning in his heart. At that moment, he said fiercely, "master Ma, do you want to say whether the Confucian Journal..."


    Although Wei Si''an didn''t say it clearly, editor in chief Ma immediately understood his intention. Even if the Mohist School forced him to wash the white, as long as the Confucian journal fanned the flames in the dark, it would certainly add a lot of trouble to them.


    Editor in chief Ma shook his head. If they had been put before, their behavior would be no less than a bolt from the blue. However, after the Korean women''s incident, mojiazi forced to rewrite the household marriage law and wrote that Liang Zhu was popular in the Tang Dynasty. At the moment, their love is comparable to Liang Zhu. I''m afraid everyone in Chang''an City envies them.


    "The Confucian journal should not know about it. If the Mohist School dares to bewitch the first princess, his majesty will make a decision. We can wait for news." editor in chief Ma denied.


    Wei Si''an suddenly broke into a cold sweat. How could they stir up the Royal affairs? If he angered his majesty, even the Confucian journal could not hold it!


    The most sensitive news in Chang''an city is mo magazine and Ru magazine. Confucianism magazine is the same. Similarly, when the whole Mo family learned that their young master''s lover is Princess Changle, everyone couldn''t help looking happy.


    "Young master, you are worthy of being a young master!"


    "The young master is full of talents. He and Princess Changle are really talented and beautiful. They are made for each other."


    Many Mo family like to open the way with a smile. Princess Changle is the first princess. If Merton could marry the princess, it would be a great honor.


    Fuber and Mr. Li breathed a sigh of relief. They finally found a place for Merton''s marriage, which they had been worried about.


    "Before the matter has been decided, Mo magazine should not know about it, so as not to create complications." Master Li told Fu Bo.


    Fu Bo nodded and told a group of Mohist disciples, "from now on, everyone in the Mohist house will stay closed and refuse all visitors!"


    Confucian journals and ink journals are silent one after another. Everyone is waiting for the decision in the palace. The real decision is in the hands of Li Shimin.

 Chapter 501

    "Merton, the boy still has the courage to propose marriage!" Li Shimin said with a tense face.


    As soon as he had finished his official duties, he was invited by Empress Chang sun to tell the Mohist family that he had asked Mrs. Qin to propose marriage. He was immediately angry.


    It is reasonable to say that Merton is also a rare young talent in Chang''an city. If they follow the normal procedures, Li Shimin naturally has no reason to object. However, Li Shimin is angry that the two have not only made a private love, but also caused such a big storm.


    What''s more hateful is that the mojiazi even exchanged secret letters with Princess Changle under his eyes, but he couldn''t grasp the handle at all. How can he not make Li Shimin crazy? He has accumulated resentment for a long time.


    Empress changsun smiled bitterly. Naturally, she knew how deep Li Shimin''s grievances were. She said, "Changle has told me what happened. They didn''t expect it to be so big. Now the situation has calmed down a little. I''ll report it immediately!"


    "I knew the boy was upset and kind. Everything he did had something to do with him since Changle met her. Now it seems that the boy has been planning for a long time!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    Since Princess Changle met Merton, it can be said that it was a bad time. From the original gentle, virtuous, educated and reasonable girl, she suddenly became a rebellious girl in the secular view. How can she not make Li Shimin angry? Li Shimin naturally won''t think it was his daughter''s fault. The real fault can only be on the Mohist son.


    Empress changsun advised, "Changle has made a choice, if..."


    When Princess Changle openly wore a golden strand, empress changsun naturally understood that Changle had made a decision. She knew that a woman was no better than her mother. Princess Changle was soft and hard inside. Once she made a decision, I''m afraid it would be difficult to change it easily.


    Li Shimin''s face sank and said, "if I don''t agree, are they Liang Zhu? Second, I will be pointed out by thousands of people."


    Empress Chang sun also looked embarrassed. In this matter, she and Li Shimin were extremely passive. Although they noticed their correspondence in advance, they had no chance to intervene until they made it clear.


    "This is the end of the matter. If there are all branches, I''m afraid there will be a gap in Changle''s heart!" empress changsun worried.


    After all, for Princess Changle, Li Shimin was still very guilty. Empress changsun''s words made Li Shimin feel soft.


    "Now, do I still have the right to oppose?" Li Shimin said angrily.


    In fact, in his heart, I''m afraid he would have acquiesced in the matter of Merton and Princess Changle, otherwise they would have interfered long ago when they noticed the secret correspondence between them.


    It was just his daughter''s life, but he felt like an outsider without decision-making power, which made Li Shimin quite unhappy.


    Empress Chang Sun said with a surprised look on her face, "did your majesty agree?"


    Li Shimin said expressionless, "I don''t agree. Is it useful?"


    Li Shimin has a toothache. Ordinary people discuss marriage between men and women, but they are just beating gongs and drums. The whole neighborhood and neighbors know that the time limit is up, and the boy of Mohism is known all over the country. It seems that the boy is really a catfish and is uneasy at any time.


    "Although I don''t object, I still want to see what confidence Merton has to dare to marry my daughter. Tell Merton that he is not dissatisfied with his parents'' orders and the words of the matchmaker, then I''ll give him a chance to propose marriage to me in person!" Li Shimin said gnashing his teeth.


    Princess Changle is his daughter. Naturally, he won''t embarrass Princess Changle. As for the Mo family, if he doesn''t make it difficult, he will be very sorry for his previous oppression.


    Empress Chang sun was helpless. She knew that if Li Shimin didn''t say this, she might not be able to live up to this barrier.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What, you want me to propose marriage in person!" in the firearms prison, Merton looked at pound who came to deliver the letter in disbelief.


    Pound looked at Merton with a smile on his face and said, "why? The famous Mohist son of the Tang Dynasty dare not go!"


    Merton smiled bitterly when he heard the speech. Of course he didn''t dare to go. He secretly abducted Li Shimin''s favorite daughter. How can Li Shimin give him a good face? He must take off his skin if he doesn''t die.


    However, Li Shimin can''t escape this trip. Instead of shrinking, he might as well be generous. It''s impossible to take away the flowers raised by Li Shimin without paying a price.


    Of course, on the surface, Merton didn''t show any timidity. At that moment, he said proudly, "how dare you!"


    "Please! The carriages are ready for Lord Moho," pound asked.


    Merton immediately felt like going to the execution ground. He walked hard into the carriage. Ordinary people went to the father-in-law''s house for the first time. Who was not trembling, let alone Li Shimin.


    When Merton arrived at the palace, the whole harem was a sensation. On the one hand, it was the influence of Liang Zhu, and the love between mojiazi and Princess Changle was too legendary.


    A private promise! I''m afraid this is something that has never happened among princesses of all dynasties.


    At the same time, the affairs of Merton and Princess Changle were turned upside down, revealing close relatives'' marriage and early marriage, saving Princess Changle. When she was angry, she advocated the western expedition to Tuyuhun. On the night of Lantern Festival, she used the word "love" and wrote Liang Zhu to correct the name of Princess Changle. It can be imagined how much sensation this love caused in the highly regulated harem.


    Love is a luxury in the harem. Even the Royal princesses are usually used by the emperor as a tool for marriage, and even the fate of being reconciled is tragic. However, today, Princess Changle has got the love that everyone envies. How can she not stir the harem.


    Merton was walking in the palace. He glanced at some corners of the palace wall.


    Other people''s eyes can be ignored, but Merton can''t avoid Li Chengqian''s complex eyes.


    "Merton, what did you do?" Li Chengqian burst out of his ability to protect his sister and looked at Merton with gnashing teeth.


    He felt that he had made the biggest mistake in bringing Princess Changle to Merton. If he hadn''t taken Princess Changle to Merton''s house to relax, I''m afraid it wouldn''t be today.


    "Brother Gao Ming!" Merton said with a bitter smile.


    "I can''t afford to climb high in this palace. In the future, you and I will cut off our robes and cut off righteousness. From then on, we will cut off kindness and righteousness." Li Chengqian said firmly.


    Merton nodded obediently: "it''s really inappropriate for you and me to match as brothers in the future, brother-in-law!"


    "Brother in law!"


    Chengqian could not help but see the darkness in front of his eyes. If it weren''t for this, it was the important place of the imperial palace. Chengqian had the impulse to smash his fist into Merton''s face.


    Behind Li Chengqian, Li Ke nodded kindly to Merton, while Li Tai looked at Merton with a cold hum. The other princes looked at Merton with a look of worship. They were as surprised as heaven and man as the Liang Zhu written by Merton, even Li Zhi was no exception.


    Merton tried to kill Chengqian, who was in the way. When he arrived at the legislative hall, Merton sighed and the appointed stepped in. He also had an ultimate demon to face, that is Li Shimin.

 Chapter 502

    "I''ll see the emperor and empress!" Merton entered the legislative hall. Seeing Li Shimin and empress Chang sun, he immediately bowed and saluted with great respect.


    Li Shimin didn''t make a sound, but stared at Merton with bad eyes, which immediately cooled Merton''s back.


    Empress Chang sun looked at them helplessly and hurriedly said, "flat!"


    "Thank you, empress!" Merton hurried down the slope.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly. If it weren''t for the words of empress Chang sun, he planned to let Merton bow all the time and give him a threat first.


    "Merton, you know the sin!" Li Shimin shouted angrily, but he didn''t want to let Merton go so easily.


    "The boy is guilty!" Merton said immediately without hesitation.


    Seeing that Merton was so cheerful, Li Shimin was like a heavy fist in the air and was half suffocated.


    "Then you say, what''s your sin?" Li Shimin sneered.


    Merton was immediately embarrassed. Isn''t it difficult for others? There''s no reason to convict himself.


    "It''s an unforgivable sin for the micro minister to damage the princess''s reputation!" Merton confessed honestly.


    "Reputation damage?" Li Shimin suddenly stood up, pointed to Merton''s nose and scolded angrily, "you also know that this matter is related to Changle''s reputation. If something goes wrong, you can think about Changle''s situation!"


    When Li Shimin thought about it, he was afraid that if the past customs, Changle and the Mexican family secretly agreed, it would certainly damage the reputation of the royal family, and even affect the reputation of the royal family. Fortunately, Merton made a timely remedy, otherwise Li Shimin could not let Merton stand in front of him with intact limbs at the moment.


    Merton''s face also showed a trace of luck. Although he had just made a decision with Princess Changle, he was disturbed by wesan and had no time to respond, but after all, things started because of him, and he couldn''t say any more excuses.


    "Minister knows his sin!" Morton said gloomily, "it''s Wei minister''s thoughtlessness that worries the emperor and empress."


    Li Shimin was still angry. He smashed the rice paper in his hand in front of Merton and said angrily, "look at what this is?"


    When Merton Yu Guang swept away, he suddenly burst into a cold sweat. He saw the dense numbers on the propaganda paper, which were the ciphertext between him and Changle. He didn''t expect Li Shimin to find out this.


    "This..." Merton suddenly looked embarrassed. How could he feel that his parents came to the door when he wrote a love letter to a girl.


    "You are so bold that you don''t mention Changle''s reputation. You treat the palace as nothing. It has made the city full of trouble. You two still have private letters. You think I''m blind!" Li Shimin said gritting his teeth.


    Merton''s eyes flashed, and he immediately understood that the reason why Li Shimin was angry was not only that he communicated with Princess Changle, but also that he clearly had intercepted the secret letter, but couldn''t crack it.


    "This is the newly invented ciphertext. The first group of numbers represents a book, the second group of numbers is a page, the third group is a line, and the fourth group of numbers represents a word. In this way, the content of the letter can be hidden. Even if others intercept the letter, they can still not get the content in their heart." Merton explained honestly.


    Li Shimin suddenly realized that no wonder he was confused when he saw these figures. After Merton''s explanation, he suddenly came to light.


    Merton said politely, "this kind of ciphertext is most suitable for military use. Even if the messenger is captured by the enemy and intercepts the military newspaper, he can still not get the information of the military newspaper."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but look at Merton. The boy wrote a letter for Changle and even made a wonderful thing. With his eyes, he can naturally understand the benefits of this ciphertext.


    "Oh! So you''re taking things to deal with the enemy and against me!" Li Shimin was satisfied, but he still insisted.


    "Well, well, although Merton made a mistake, he also tried his best to remedy it!" the eldest Sun Queen said.


    Li Shimin got the principle of the ciphertext, solved his doubts, and added a sharp weapon to the military. Only then did he look a little slower.


    Merton hurriedly took the opportunity to say, "Weichen''s love for the princess is very true and pure. Please give Weichen a chance to spend his whole life to remedy it."


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "you think Changle is about you not marrying. The emperor''s daughter doesn''t worry about marrying. As long as I let out the wind, those who come to propose marriage can take pictures outside Chang''an."


    Merton quickly shook his head and said, "Weichen doesn''t dare to have this intention. Weichen only knows that if he meets his beloved, he should strive for it with all his strength. The emotion of Liang Zhu moves heaven and earth, but it''s not what he wants. What he wants is to spend his life with Changle."


    Empress Chang sun could not help nodding slightly. As a woman, the greatest happiness is to meet someone who loves each other all her life.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun looked at each other, and a trace of tenderness flashed in their eyes.


    Li Shimin sat on the throne, stared at Merton and said, "Changle is the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. You are just a seven grade official. What confidence do you have to marry a princess of the Tang Dynasty."


    Merton was stunned. He couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin in surprise. Does the royal wedding also depend on his life experience and official position.


    Li Shimin coughed and said in two voices, "I heard that you are going to marry with your salary. Changle is a golden branch and jade leaf, and the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. How can you be so poor."


    The salary of a seven grade official can''t save enough money to marry the princess even if he works for a hundred years. If Li Shimin doesn''t take the opportunity to make trouble with him, he won''t get out of this evil spirit.


    But Merton personally handed this handle to Li Shimin. How could he not have a response? At that time, he said confidently, "your majesty and your mother can rest assured. Please give me a year. After a year, I will marry Changle with thousands of horses and thousands of gold."


    "Thousands of horses are hired, and thousands of gold is a gift." Li Shimin was stunned and asked, "don''t move the money of Mojia village?"


    "Of course!" Morton said proudly, "since Wei Chen said it, he will be sure."


    Empress changsun nodded. A year later, Merton and Changle were just at the age of marriage.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "I''ll give you a year. If you dare to go astray, embezzle and accept bribes, don''t blame me for being impolite."


    "Thank you, your majesty!" said Merton with a happy face.


    "Go away! Only the queen and Mrs. Qin handle the engagement." Li Shimin was upset when he looked at Merton and waved him away.


    "Farewell, son-in-law!" Merton immediately changed his mouth. Before Li Shimin could react, he disappeared at the door of the legislative hall as soon as possible.


    "The child can really go down the slope!" the eldest Sun Queen smiled.


    Li Shimin snorted heavily and couldn''t help eating: "it''s really cheap, boy."


    As a father, I''m about to marry my first daughter. I''m afraid only personal experience can understand the mood.

 Chapter 503

    In the Changle palace!


    A group of princesses gathered around Princess Changle, chattering excitedly, and inquired about Merton and Princess Changle.


    Although Princess Changle was shy and generous, she simply said what happened on the lantern night.


    "Sister Changle is hiding so deep! We have been guessing who is the favorite of mojiazi. Unexpectedly, it is sister Changle." Princess Linchuan said in surprise.


    "Suddenly looking back, the man was in the dim light."


    "Ask the world what love is..."


    The princesses recited the two familiar words and looked at Princess Changle with envy.


    "Sister Changle is so lucky!" some older princesses sighed.


    In the eyes of ordinary people, Mozi has lost Gao Xiang for several generations to meet princess Changle, but for a group of princesses, how rare it is to meet a lover, not to mention that this person is a famous Mozi and a talented young man in Chang''an city. It can be said that he is the best match. How can he not be envied by the princesses in the waiting room.


    "Sister Changle, now mohou has been summoned by her majesty. My sister has just seen his father come back. She only sees his father''s face. I''m afraid mohou will not be able to please him this time!" Princess Gaoyang suddenly poured cold water on one side.


    Suddenly all the princesses were quiet, and their eyes could not help flowing between Princess Gaoyang and Princess Changle.


    The contradiction between Gaoyang and Changle is not a secret among the princesses. Before, because of the marriage of close relatives, the marriage between Changle Princess and changsun Chong broke down, and Li Shimin soon betrothed Gaoyang princess to changsun Chong.


    It is reasonable to say that the changsun family is the top aristocratic family in Chang''an City and does not wrong Princess Gaoyang. However, the arrogant princess Gaoyang has always been bitter and thinks she has picked up the rest of Changle.


    Moreover, there have long been rumors in the palace that Chang sun Chong has always been obsessed with Princess Changle, which makes Gao Yang dissatisfied with Changle. In the whole harem, only Gao Yang has been against Changle again.


    Princess Changle gave Changle a cold look and said proudly, "if it''s someone else, the palace will naturally worry, but Merton, the palace believes that he has his own way to satisfy his father."


    The princesses could not help nodding. They had heard of Merton''s magic in their hearts. Naturally, they were full of confidence in Merton.


    Princess Gaoyang snorted coldly and wanted to continue. She only heard a maid of the Changle palace running and panting: "tell the princess that Marquis Mo has come out of the Lizheng hall."


    "What''s the result?" Changle asked hurriedly. The princesses couldn''t help but keep their eyes open and look forward to looking at the palace maid.


    The palace maid showed her joy and said, "mohou promised to marry the princess with thousands of horses and thousands of gold as gifts within one year. Your majesty has promised."


    "Ah!"


    Princess Changle suddenly blushed and was very shy.


    "Congratulations, sister!" the princesses congratulated Changle one after another.


    Princess Gaoyang can''t help eating. Even if she marries a princess, it''s the highest standard. How can she not balance Gaoyang''s heart.


    Suddenly, Princess Gaoyang turned her eyes and said, "such a bride price is not a problem for the rich Mojia village. However, my little sister heard that mohou made a public promise to marry on her own salary. Mohou, as a model of young people in the Tang Dynasty, is really admirable for her courage!"


    The princesses were stunned. Although they had been in the palace for a long time, they also knew the salary of seven grade officials. I''m afraid even when Lao Baihu arrived, they couldn''t get together the ten thousand gold bride price.


    However, Princess Changle was not in the slightest panic, but said faintly: "I believe Merton, since he promised to do it naturally!"


    Princess Yuzhang turned her eyes, relaxed the atmosphere and said with a smile, "can we change our name to Merton as our brother-in-law?"


    "Yes! Let''s go to the palace gate. Maybe we can see our brother-in-law." many princesses coaxed one after another.


    Princess Changle was ashamed and said, "dare you talk nonsense? I won''t tear your mouth."


    "Sister is angry. It''s terrible! Run!" the princesses got up one after another and ran out laughing.


    "Oh!"


    Princess Linchuan ran so fast that she almost didn''t hit people''s arms.


    The princesses quickly stopped. It doesn''t matter how they play in front of their sisters. It''s natural to ensure the dignified image of the princess in front of outsiders.


    "Merton, ah! It''s my brother-in-law!" exclaimed Princess Jinyang.


    All the princesses looked at Merton with beautiful eyes. No one thought that Merton came out of the Lizheng palace and came directly to Changle palace. In the eyes of the people, Merton was not as handsome as some aristocratic families, but he was very beautiful. He had a very different air quality from ordinary people, even in the crowd.


    "It is the highness of your princesses! Merton is courteous!" said Merton courtesy.


    The Lizheng hall itself is not far from the Changle palace. When Merton entered the palace, how could he not come to the Changle hall? He does not have the etiquette strictly prohibited by Confucianism.


    When Princess Changle saw Merton coming, her eyes lit up and they looked at each other. It was as if they were separated from each other,


    "My brother-in-law is very kind. It''s not easy for my brother-in-law and sister to meet openly. I won''t bother you later." Princess Yuzhang said with a smile and took the princesses away.


    Changle immediately stared at Princess Yuzhang with hatred and invited Merton into Changle palace with shyness.


    "Father Emperor didn''t embarrass you!" asked the Changle palace shyly in the Changle palace.


    Merton smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "it''s bad for your reputation. Your majesty should be angry."


    "So you use thousands of horses and thousands of gold to please your father, but how can you afford it only by your salary." Princess Changle said she was not worried just now, but now she couldn''t help asking.


    "You can rest assured that since I promise to make money, you can wait for a year to enter the door." Merton looked at Princess Changle and said gently.


    Princess Changle said angrily, "it doesn''t mean that both sides are willing to marry you. You haven''t got my consent yet?"


    Merton said, "how can I pursue such a beautiful and gentle Princess Changle?"


    Princess Changle said proudly, "it depends on your sincerity!"


    "I don''t know if this sincerity is enough!" Merton stretched out his hand and suddenly a gorgeous peach blossom appeared in front of Princess Changle.


    "Wow! How did you do it?" cried Princess Changle.


    Merton smiled proudly. Later generations of him made great efforts to practice this magic. He didn''t know it would be useful in later generations. Now he has used pie field.


    Merton from later generations wanted to please a woman. Naturally, he had some methods. Soon, Princess Changle laughed from the whole Changle palace.


    However, the happy time is always short. In less than half an hour, Merton was driven out of the Changle Palace by the anti thief gong''e. Merton made a sign of writing to Changle and saw Changle nodding, which went outside the palace.


    With Merton''s departure, Princess Changle wore a golden thread across the palace and made a personal proposal to mojiazi, which spread all over Chang''an City as if flying.

 Chapter 504

    "It turns out that the favorite of Mohist school is Princess Changle?" this news is comparable to the big bang in the first month, raging in Chang''an city.


    "No wonder..."


    It suddenly occurred to countless people that everywhere they went, everyone talked one after another,


    "Men''s talents and women''s looks are perfect!" They envied.


    From the night of Lantern Festival to the finale of Liang Zhu, the beloved of Mohist school was invisible like a fog. It was not officially exposed until today. Indeed, it did not disappoint everyone.


    It goes without saying that Merton''s deeds in Chang''an city are almost well known to women and children, and Princess Changle is in charge of the Red Cross and saves countless people. In the hearts of everyone, she is a fairy like figure.


    One is the leading young man in Chang''an City, and the other is the cymbic orchid heart, gentle and kind princess Changle. Their love is the most sensational happy event in the whole Tang Dynasty. Coupled with their tortuous love, they are as wonderful as Liang Zhu and people enjoy talking about it.


    "Comparable to the love of Liang Zhu, but without the sadness of Liang Zhu!" they sighed.


    Liang Zhu''s sad and beautiful ending has just ended. Merton and Changle''s love is a great success, which immediately gives everyone a boost.


    In people''s view, they are contemporary Liang Zhu, which makes up for people''s regret for Liang Zhu''s tragedy.


    "Thousands of horses are hired, thousands of gold are gifts, and we can only rely on Merton himself?" then Merton''s promised conditions spread, and everyone was in an uproar.


    "In my opinion, the Mohist school is in a bit of trouble this time!" many people gloated.


    As long as some people based on arithmetic know how difficult the task is.


    "If others can''t do it, it doesn''t mean that the ink family can''t do it." more people are full of confidence in Merton. Merton has done many incredible things, especially Merton took the initiative to put it forward, which makes people more confident.


    The love between Merton and Princess Changle is only a conversation in front of ordinary people, but it is like an earthquake in the circle of dignitaries.


    Princess Changle is the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. In Chang''an City, families with school-age teenagers all have the idea of Princess Changle. However, no one thought that Merton was the first.


    "Mo family son!" many aristocratic childe brothers in Chang''an City said angrily.


    However, among the dignitaries, they pay more attention to the chemical reaction brought by the combination of mojiazi and Changle. All along, mojiazi has been economically strong, but it does not have much political power. However, if Merton marries Princess Changle and makes up for this weakness, I''m afraid it''s necessary to make a good evaluation of mojiacun.


    Most dignitaries are just awe inspiring, but many people turn their eyes to the Wei family and the Chang Sun family. I''m afraid they are the two families that really suffer!


    "Pa!"


    A rare Sanle pulp was smashed to the ground. The eldest son was full of wine and was drunk hazily. The servants of the eldest son''s family were waiting on one side with fear.


    "Rebellious son!" the eldest sun Wuji came in and roared when he saw the drunken eldest sun Chong.


    Chang sun Chong smiled miserably, looked up at Chang sun Wuji and said, "father! The child is not reconciled!"


    Changsun Wuji sighed helplessly. Of course, he knew why changsun Chong did this! I haven''t heard about Merton and Princess Changle.


    "The marriage of close relatives is against heaven. Since you were born in changsun''s family, you are destined to have no chance with Changle. Why don''t you think about it?" changsun Wuji advised.


    The eldest sun Chong said with hatred: "if close relatives get married, who can know if it is a lie of Mohist Zi. Perhaps Mohist Zi has planned to this day from the moment he just saw Princess Changle."


    In Chang sun Chong''s opinion, Merton must have plotted against Princess Changle for a long time. First, he broke his engagement with Changle, and then achieved the goal of occupying Changle bit by bit.


    "Being a father has let you see the statistics of close relative marriage in Chang''an city. I believe you also know the harm of close relative marriage. Do you want to have no successors in the changsun family?" changsun Wuji hates it.


    For what Chang sun Chong said, he just shook his head reluctantly. With Merton''s life experience and means, it is not impossible to take a princess. It is not necessarily a legitimate princess.


    Chang sun Chong couldn''t hear it at all. He said angrily, "I''ve seen it naturally. You know, not all the people born to close relatives are fools. There are also many normal or even exceptionally intelligent people. My Chang Sun family can''t afford to feed a few idle people."


    The eldest sun Wuji''s face was blue and said, "you can''t afford to delay. Do you think the princess can delay? Dare you bet! Dare you bet for your father? Dare your majesty bet?"


    The eldest grandson burst into a sad laugh and said, "I''m afraid it''s only when the Mexican family sees this that they dare to have confidence!"


    Looking at Chang sun Chong, who was drunk into a pool of mud, Chang sun Wuji said angrily, "come on, carry the young master back to the house and think about it behind closed doors. He is not allowed to step out of the house without my command."


    "Yes!"


    Suddenly, a crowd of servants from Chang sun''s house poured in, lifted Chang sun Chong into the room and locked the door heavily.


    Looking at the closed door, Chang sun Wuji''s face was uncertain. Before the Mojia Zi entered Chang''an City, his son Chang sun Chong was a famous young leader in Chang''an city. However, since the Mojia Zi stabbed him horizontally and spoiled his engagement with Princess Changle, Chang sun Chong was defeated by the Mojia Zi one after another.


    From then on, the whole changsun Chong never recovered, and a man was destroyed. Of course, there was the reason why changsun Chong had a silver gun and a Pewter head, and Merton was afraid that he could not escape dry cleaning.


    "Mo family son!" the eldest sun Wuji said in a hate voice.


    Chang sun''s house was filled with resentment, while Wei''s house was full of panic.


    When he was called home, wesan knelt in front of Wei''s father with a gray face and no longer had the momentum of holding his toes high and high.


    "Villain, you are willing to destroy the Wei family!" Wei''s father looked at Wei Si''an angrily.


    Wei Si''an slanders Princess Changle in front of her. Changle is the first-line princess, which is related to the face of the Tang Dynasty. If the Mo family didn''t remedy it in time, according to the past customs, the first-line Princess of the Tang Dynasty met men privately, what a scandal, and it was Wei Si''an who broke the scandal, we can imagine what the Wei family will end.


    "Father, where does the child know that she is Princess Changle!" Wei Si''an now wants to cry without tears, regretting that he wants to die,


    "My father always thought you were smart. Now it seems that you are all smart and have nothing to show!" father Wei scolded.


    He regretted that Wei Sian''s future was ruined before. Now it seems that Wei Sian is not wronged at all. He slandered Princess Changle face to face and turned around to marry someone else. This is not self humiliation.


    "Father, it''s too late to say anything now. Now think about how to remedy it!" Wes was persuading.


    Wei Fu shook his head and said, "naturally, there are imperial concubines and empresses in the harem to help plead for mercy. Now we have to worry about the son of the Mohist family and Princess Changle."


    Wei Sizheng''s eyes lit up and said, "Princess Changle is in charge of the Red Cross. She donated thousands of gold before the Jinyu building. If the Wei family also donated thousands of gold, it can also be regarded as an expression of the Wei family''s apology."


    Wei Fu nodded and said, "donate three thousand gold!"


    "Three thousand gold?" the Wei brothers were surprised. This is a wealth that the Wei family can''t accumulate in ten years.


    "It''s just to spend money to avoid disaster. Since you want to donate, you should let the royal family feel the apology of the Wei family. In addition, you should order it. From now on, the Wei family must not have any conflict with the Mojia village, or you will be severely punished." Wei''s father said bitterly.


    In the south of the city, the Wei family and the Du family have always been the leaders. However, after the Du family, the Wei family was defeated by the Mohist family again. I''m afraid that the Mohist village will dominate the south of the city from now on.

 Chapter 505

    "Tell general! Marquis Mo, please see me!" Sixteen guards Valley! Li Jing was handling official business when she suddenly heard a report from her own soldiers.


    "Merton?"


    Li Jing looked up in surprise.


    "Yes! Mohou is waiting outside the door!" the soldier replied.


    "Invite him in!" Li Jing said.


    After a while, Merton opened the military tent and came in, bowed and said, "I''ve seen the general!"


    "I heard that the good things of marquis Mo are coming. Congratulations!" Li Jing joked when she saw Merton coming in. The story about Merton and Princess Changle is very popular. Even if he lived in a seclusion in the military camp, he could not help knowing a lot.


    Merton smiled shyly and said, "it''s still early, it''s still early!"


    Li Jing laughed and said, "I''m waiting for the wedding wine."


    "I''ll be waiting for the general at that time, but today''s boy came to ask the general for a favor." Morton arched his hand.


    "Help?" Li Jing gave Merton a wary look. Before, he promised Merton''s conditions because of 500 weapons, but now he''s suffering from the right back. Merton''s noise in the valley is constantly annoying.


    "General, don''t worry. As long as this round of experiment is completed, the weapons of the firearm supervisor are almost finished. Naturally, it won''t disturb the general''s cleanliness." Merton hurried.


    "All right! As long as it''s under my authority, everything is easy to say." Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to send away the scourge of Merton as soon as possible, but she naturally agreed.


    "The boy wants to borrow some catapults," Merton said.


    Li Jing waved his big hand and said, "here are ten."


    "Plus a team of soldiers," Merton added.


    Li Jing was about to wave his big hand. He quickly put down his arm and asked, "why do you want a soldier?"


    Merton explained: "boy, I want to build a wall to try the power of gunpowder. Now gunpowder should be kept strictly confidential. It''s natural not to use civilian men, so I''m afraid I need the general''s help."


    As soon as Li Jing''s eyes shrunk, he immediately understood Merton''s meaning and took a cold breath: "you mean gunpowder weapons can destroy the city wall!"


    He had only heard about gunpowder weapons before, and all he heard were rumors. However, when he heard Merton say so, his attention to gunpowder weapons immediately increased sharply.


    Merton nodded without hesitation and said, "for a strong city like Chang''an City, it is naturally impossible, but it is not worth destroying the city wall of an ordinary county. Even if there is enough gunpowder, it is possible for the county city. As for the effect, when the day of the experiment, the boy will naturally invite the general to watch the ceremony."


    Li Jing took a deep look at Merton and nodded. In this way, it is indeed the most appropriate to invite soldiers to build.


    "OK, I''ll give you 300 soldiers. I hope you won''t let me down." Li Jing said with sharp eyes.


    "Thank you, general!" Merton said with great joy.


    "Somebody, call Qin Huaiyu''s three smelly boys." Li Jing told his soldiers.


    After a while, Qin Huaiyu quickly stepped in and saw Merton here. He was stunned, but he didn''t say anything. Instead, he saluted respectfully and said, "see the general!"


    Merton nodded with satisfaction. The three men were born soldiers and only entered the army. However, they had been trained for more than a month.


    Li Jing said, "from now on, you and the three will each lead the team of 100 and obey Merton''s command without any mistakes."


    Merton was not surprised that the three were promoted to Centurion. After all, they were all the children of generals. Naturally, it was impossible for them to sit up from small soldiers. Moreover, their martial arts were extraordinary. It was more than enough to be a centurion. However, if they want to be promoted in the future, they must build their own army instead of relying on their family background.


    "Yes!" the three shouted.


    His face involuntarily showed a trace of happiness. In recent days, Li Jing practiced them very sadly. It''s just right to relax with Merton.


    Merton looked at the three unkindly, and then bowed his hand to Li Jing and said, "thank you, general. I''m leaving."


    Li Jing looked at Merton''s back and helplessly picked up the book of war. After Merton''s strongest infantry, the book of war he was about to complete had been severely modified once. He thought it was perfect, but Merton subverted his thinking this time. If there were weapons to destroy the city wall, I''m afraid his book of war will be overhauled again.


    Merton led Qin Huaiyu out of the big account of the Chinese army. Qin Huaiyu hammered on Merton''s shoulder and said excitedly, "it''s your boy who stands up for justice and saves us. You don''t know what life my brother has been these days."


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin are also relieved. They suddenly feel like they have escaped from heaven.


    "By the way, it''s said that your boy has done another big thing and quietly chased Princess Changle." Chumo looks at Merton excitedly.


    "Yes, I asked you before, but you kept it from me! It''s too unfair." Wei Chi Baolin complained.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "at that time, he was at the cusp of the storm, and my little brother was helpless!"


    Qin Huaiyu nodded and said, "it''s not Morton''s fault. If you want to blame him, you have to blame the boy Wei Si''an. I didn''t expect that the boy should be so insidious and dare to make plans for his younger brothers and sisters. Let''s go! When we return to Chang''an city today, we must teach the boy a good lesson and speak for Morton."


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin nodded excitedly. "


    Merton shook his head and said in surprise, "who said we went back to Chang''an today."


    "What''s that for?" the three puzzled.


    "Go to the valley. Build a wall!" Merton said with a smile.


    "Ah!"


    When the three learned about today''s task, they immediately said sadly, "Merton, you''re kidding us. We''re looking forward to the stars and the moon. I hope you can take us out to relax."


    Merton shook his head and said, "I didn''t look for you. I just asked General Li for a few people. Unexpectedly, the general sent you."


    "General, we''re wrong. We don''t complain anymore. Training is hard!" the three shouted. No matter how hard training is, it''s better than building a city wall and being a civilian man!


    When the three of them entered the army, they were also a thorn in the head. They complained about the suffering of training many times. Li Jing took this opportunity to treat them well.


    Merton took out the military order and gloated: "the military order is like a mountain. Do you repair the wall yourself or go again after being hit by the board?"


    The three stopped at once and went to lead their team of 100.


    "Don''t bother the two masters. By the way, bring ten more stone throwing machines. I''ll wait for you in the valley." Merton shouted behind his back.


    "Merton, wait for me!" the three men said angrily.

 Chapter 506

    Outside the west mountain.


    Countless stones piled up like mountains. In order to build the city wall, Merton had already placed a huge order with the brick and clay merchant and agreed to deliver it at this time.


    However, it is impossible for these businessmen and civilian men to enter the military camp. They still need Qin Huaiyu''s three hundred person team to transport them to the valley.


    Qin Huaiyu took the lead and tried his best to transport the brick truck to the valley. Although with the support of Qianjin arm, the soldiers had no pain in moving bricks.


    But the mountain road is hard to walk, Merton


    Qin Huaiyu led his own team of 100 to transport a large number of bricks and stones accumulated outside the general camp to the valley.


    "Hoo!" the three of Qin Huaiyu gasped and pulled a cart of bricks to the valley. They were relieved. When they saw Merton standing on the side of the pitching machine doing nothing, they immediately burst into flames.


    "Hum!" the three people glared, snorted coldly, and turned to accept their life to pull the bricks.


    Merton laughed and looked at the catapult in front of him with a look of wonder. The catapults equipped by the 16th guard are the most advanced catapults that will be used to supervise the production. They are about one foot high, almost all wooden structure, and a long crossbow arm extends far.


    "This is a catapult. It can throw a hundred kilograms of boulders. Once hit, people will smash the broken bones," Xue Rengui said.


    Merton said excitedly, "try some."


    This huge weapon is no less than the cannon of later generations, and Merton is naturally excited.


    Suddenly, several hundred horses came forward to operate and put a huge stone of hundreds of kilograms into the bowl.


    "Launch!" shouted Xue Rengui.


    Buzz!


    With the string sound of the rope tightening, hundreds of kilograms of boulders flew out in an instant.


    The boulder drew an arc, and a big tree in front of it was destroyed in an instant.


    "How far is it?" asked Merton.


    "Offering wine, sir, a total of 200 steps!" Xue Rengui said with his hand. Soon, a ranging soldier came back, which was almost the same as what Xue Rengui measured.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "change it into a stone of fifty kilograms."


    Soon, a small stone flew out and broke half of a tree, but it didn''t break the tree.


    "260 steps!" Xue Rengui reported again.


    "Change a twenty pound stone," Merton said again.


    "Hoo!" a basket of big stones roared past, smashed hard on the trunk, and a large number of leaves and bark fell.


    "280 steps! But the power is too small." Xue Rengui shook his head and said.


    Merton frowned and said, "so the best distance is only 260 steps at 50 Jin!"


    Although the two hundred and sixty steps are not close, the distance is still too short. The greatest function of the catapult is to attack the city. If there is a divine Archer standing high, the range can easily reach 300 meters. Although the bow and arrow can not threaten the catapult, the soldiers of the catapult must suffer heavy losses.


    "Are you going to replace stone with gunpowder?" Xue Rengui said with a flash in his eyes.


    He has seen the power of gunpowder explosion. Once the gunpowder bomb is thrown into the enemy''s wall by a stone catapult, although it has no impact of boulders, I''m afraid everyone will shudder at the power of explosion.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, so everyone in the firearm prison is the most precious wealth. Losing one is a great loss for the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the location of the catapult must be within the reach of the enemy."


    When most people see gunpowder, they think of artillery. Compared with the best projection equipment in ancient times, the combat effect of early artillery has been significantly backward for a long time, and the early artillery fired solid bullets, which were not strong in lethality.


    If the catapult is used to cooperate with the gunpowder bomb, the operation is simple, and its effect may be immediate. It can be said that it is comparable to the power of later artillery.


    Xue Rengui couldn''t help but look at Merton and said, "but even throwing a 20 kg stone is only 280 steps."


    Merton had a flash of inspiration. He thought that there was a king of the catapult in later generations, that is, the return cannon.


    In the later Song Dynasty, it took decades to endure the death of the Jin Dynasty, and held a stalemate with the Mongolian cavalry. As a result, under the bombardment of the Huihui artillery, the strong City Xiangyang, which had been in stalemate with Mongolia for six years, soon fell. Then, under the bombardment of the Huihui artillery, the city wall could no longer stop the pace of Mongolia, and the whole song dynasty fell down.


    Merton picked up the pen and paper and continued to improve the catapult in front of him. Soon, the prototype of the later Huihui gun slowly appeared in his pen.


    "Zhang Mu!" Merton waved and summoned Zhang Mu, who was commanding the right guard to dig earth.


    "Young master, what can I do for you?" Zhang Mu hurriedly came over and said.


    Merton handed the drawing to Zhang Mu and said, "give the task of building the city wall to other craftsmen. You go to Mojia village to transport a set of woodworking machinery to the firearms supervisor and make it in the fastest time."


    Zhang MUNAI is the son of Lao Zhang tou. His craftsmanship is natural. When he saw Merton''s drawings, he couldn''t help nodding. Asked: "young master, how much do you need? When?"


    "The more, the better! It must be made before the big martial arts show." Merton ordered.


    "Yes!" Zhang Mu immediately took orders.


    "Great martial arts!" Xue Rengui said in surprise.


    Merton nodded and said, "the western expedition is coming. Your majesty will naturally have a great martial arts show before the expedition. General Li is ready to select the five guards for the expedition. Then your majesty will come to the scene in person. That will be the time for our firearms supervisor to shine."


    Merton turned his eyes to the wall under construction. He expended so much energy that it was not only the power of gunpowder, but also the arrow pointing to the great martial arts show.


    "All right! Keep testing the catapult?" Merton continued.


    Xue Rengui was stunned and said, "don''t you plan to use a new type of stone throwing machine to sacrifice wine?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "the catapult seems to be powerful, but the accurate head doesn''t dare to compliment. I''m afraid the effect will be greatly reduced."


    Xue Rengui immediately puzzled and said, "but the stone flying out is beyond our control."


    Merton shook his head and said, "we can''t control the stone, but we can control the strength, direction and even landing point of the stone. This is ballistics, which is an extremely advanced mathematics."


    "Arithmetic?"


    Xue Rengui was suddenly stupid. He was good at asking him to fight. If he wanted to test knowledge, his eyes would be dark.


    Merton suddenly had an idea. He thought of a suitable candidate, Zu Mingjun. I''m afraid he''s no longer suitable for studying ballistics.


    The rest of his light drifted past Qin Huaiyu, who was selling coolies. Merton showed a strange smile at the corners of his mouth. In his heart, he secretly said that he would either deceive Zu Mingjun, or how could it be said that brothers shared weal and woe?


    When Merton thought of this, he immediately wrote a letter to Xue Rengui and said, "immediately use the post station to whip up the whip, send this letter to Qiu county, Fanyang County, and give it to Zu Mingjun, tell him that there is an ancient computational knowledge that needs to be studied, and ask him if he is interested."


    Merton didn''t deceive Zu Mingjun at all. Ballistics is popular in the world even after a few years. If Zu Mingjun started ballistics, I''m afraid it''s impossible to become famous.

 Chapter 507

    In Qiu county, Fanyang County, the ancestral family is a famous local family. Of course, there is the grace of the ancestors of the ancestral family. However, hundreds of years have passed, and the ancestral family has gradually declined.


    However, after Zu Mingjun created the parabola, the Zu family gradually had the momentum of ZTE, and Zu Mingjun became the hope of the Zu family. Only in the year of weak crown, his position in the Zu family has been pivotal.


    "Hello, young master!" Zu Mingjun walked out of the courtyard, and the servants of the Zu family saluted one after another.


    Zu Mingjun nodded and asked, "has this issue of Ink magazine arrived?"


    The steward of the ancestral house quickly handed over a copy of Ink magazine and said, "I inform you, the ink magazine has just arrived, and the old slave is preparing to send it to the young master?"


    Another reason why Zu Mingjun is famous in Qiu county is that he is a close friend of Mozi. Merton is famous for his novel Liang Zhu. Even in Qiu county, it is well known. He is often asked about Mozi.


    Zu Mingjun took over the ink magazine. The first issue of the ink magazine in Chang''an city was only a penny. However, when he arrived in Fanyang County, an ink magazine was full of twenty Wen. Although the price is not cheap, it is in short supply.


    Although some restaurants and teahouses do not buy 20 copies at once, one for each table, as pan''s restaurants do, they often buy one ink magazine and put it in the store to attract customers, but one ink magazine is not enough for people to see, which has created a career, that is, doctor of newspaper reading.


    Some literate people are invited by the restaurant and teahouse to read newspapers in the store. For everyone, it is a great enjoyment to drink tea in the teahouse, listen to newspapers and periodicals and understand national affairs. Especially after Liang Zhu''s publication, people are never tired of hearing it, and they are often overcrowded.


    This issue is the finale of Liang Zhu. It can be said that the whole country is looking forward to this ink magazine. This issue of Ink magazine has just arrived in Qiu county and was immediately robbed. Zu Mingjun was lucky to keep one because he paid a deposit in advance.


    After watching the finale of Liang Zhu, Zu Mingjun reluctantly put down the ink magazine in his hand and looked through all the ink magazines after returning from Chang''an city. From the annual report of Mojia village to the night of the Lantern Festival, to the ink technology exhibition, and then to Liang Zhu, he couldn''t help sighing.


    "It seems that brother Mo had a wonderful life in Chang''an city!" Zu Mingjun looked at his boring life day after day in his hometown, which was suddenly dull.


    "Da Da!"


    A swift horse''s hoof startled the tranquility of Qiu county. A post soldier rode a tall horse and went straight to the ancestral house.


    "Excuse me, this is the ancestral house!" the post soldier ran down the horse road.


    "Exactly! I don''t know what''s the matter with the messenger!" the steward of the ancestral house looked at the Posthouse suspiciously. He didn''t understand how the Posthouse could find the ancestral family.


    "This is the letter of call from Chang''an city to call the ancestors and famous kings into Chang''an city." the post soldier shouted.


    "The call up letter of Chang''an city!" the ancestral home was soon disturbed.


    "Is it the call of the imperial court? Hurry and invite the young master here." the ancestral family leader who heard the news quickly shouted.


    Soon! Zu Mingjun came in a daze. He was not outstanding in the Imperial College at that time. Except for arithmetic, most of the others were ordinary. He couldn''t think of his ability to be recruited by the imperial court.


    "Xiaosheng is zumingjun!" zumingjun arched his hands.


    Seeing Zu Mingjun, the Posthouse soldier reached out and handed him a letter: "this time, the firearm supervisor recruited master Zu."


    "Firearm supervisor, brother Mo!" Zu Mingjun suddenly realized.


    However, the Zujia people frowned. They thought that the imperial court had recruited the zumingjun to be an official, but who could have thought that it was the firearm supervisor of mojiazi.


    The post soldier nodded and said, "Marquis Mo asked the villain to bring a word to master Zu. There is a famous arithmetic knowledge that needs to be studied for thousands of years. Do you have any interest?"


    "The famous knowledge of arithmetic through the ages." the ancestral family suddenly brightened their eyes. Their ancestral family started with arithmetic, and a parabola benefited the ancestral family a lot. If they can study a profound arithmetic, they will not be able to reproduce the glory of their ancestors.


    "Ballistics!" Zu Mingjun opened the letter and showed it to the ancestors.


    "Isn''t this a stone throwing soldier?" the second uncle of the ancestral family despised him.


    "No, Mingjun is the hope of my ancestral family. The ancestral family is going to let Mingjun train for several years and find an official and a half post for him. How can he enter the army and be a big soldier." many people of the ancestral family shook their heads one after another.


    Zu Mingjun explained, "this is not to join the military, but to assist the firearms supervisor in studying the catapult so that the catapult can accurately hit the target. After the successful development, naturally, the younger generation will naturally leave the firearms supervisor, and my ancestral family can obtain a new mathematics."


    The third room of the Zu family shook his head and said, "the kindness of the Mo Hou has been accepted by the Zu family, but now the situation of the Mo family is not clear. How can my Zu family rashly stand in line."


    Now the debate between Confucianism and Mohism is back in the limelight. Their ancestors are bent on studying mathematics. Naturally, they don''t want to participate in it. If they rashly stand on the side of Mohism, I''m afraid it will be disadvantageous to their ancestors!


    At the thought of the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, many people of the ancestral family immediately flinched.


    "Well, don''t argue any more. This is about Mingjun''s future. First ask him what he thinks!" the owner of the ancestral family looked at him and said.


    Zu Mingjun bowed and said, "your elders, my ancestral family has gradually declined since our ancestors. Our ancestors'' conjugation skills are extremely advanced, but there are few people who will meet. Over time, I''m afraid there are only my ancestral family songs and high and low, nothing!"


    All the elders of the ancestral family immediately looked unhappy. Although they usually had higher eyes than the top and thought that the ancestral family was a master of mathematics, they could not deny that the ancestral family had declined.


    "Because the ancestral family''s arithmetic is profound, but it is not practical. I once witnessed the rise of Mohism in Chang''an city. Why? Because Mohism promotes useful learning. Usefulness will not be forgotten or abandoned." Zu Mingjun enlightens the deaf.


    All the ancestors of the ancestral family immediately thought deeply.


    "But isn''t arithmetic useless? I heard that brother Mo was in the imperial court and used it to calculate the population in a hundred years, so as to change the marriage law of the imperial court. Isn''t this the use of arithmetic? Isn''t this ballistics my grandmaster? Dr. Shen of Chang''an City, even brother Mo, can''t calculate it as long as he is willing to work hard." grandmaster said proudly.


    The Zujia people nodded sadly. It is undeniable that Shen Hongcai and Mo Jiazi have won a lot of Zujia at least in mathematics.


    "Brother Mo''s words are not bad. This is the arithmetic knowledge that has been spread all over the world. As long as it is useful to the catapult, it will use ballistics. This is the usefulness of arithmetic. Now it is the Mohist school that has given our ancestral family an opportunity to show the usefulness of arithmetic, not asking our ancestral family, and we are not qualified to pick and choose here." Zu Mingjun shouted.


    "Well said!" the master of the ancestral family nodded and said, "the foundation of the ancestral family is arithmetic. Now, driven by the Mohist school, hundreds of schools of thought are gradually rising. If arithmetic does not separate and catch up, I''m afraid it will sink again. Now there is a knowledge of arithmetic in front of us. How can the ancestral family miss it? If heaven doesn''t take it, it will be blamed."


    "The master of the house is wise!" Zu Mingjun said happily.


    "The ancestral family does not participate in the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, but it is related to arithmetic. The ancestral family can''t miss it anyway. Immediately prepare a horse and send the ancestral king to Chang''an city." the master of the ancestral family said,


    Zu Mingjun shook his head and said, "no, brother Mo has arranged it. Brother Mo enlisted the child with the help of the imperial court. The child can take a post horse and go straight to Luoyang. After Luoyang, he will be picked up by a carriage in Mojia village."


    Sure enough! When Zu Mingjun simply cleaned up and walked out of the gate of Zu''s house, he really saw that the post soldiers had been waiting here.


    "Brother Mo knows me too!" Zu Mingjun laughed, turned on his horse and went straight to Chang''an city.

 Chapter 508

    When Zu Mingjun arrived in Luoyang and set foot on the brick road, there was a ready four-wheel carriage waiting there.


    "But master Zu! Little Mo''er is ordered to wait here by the master." Mo''er said.


    "Thank you very much!" Zu Mingjun replied. He once saw Mo Er in Mo mansion, and naturally recognized him.


    Zu Mingjun stepped on the carriage and Mo Er immediately started driving.


    "Drive!"


    The four horses pulled the four wheeled carriage along the straight brick road to Chang''an city. Soon after, Zu Mingjun suddenly realized that the carriage had stopped and couldn''t help looking at it.


    "Master Zu, wait a minute! After passing the toll station, the carriage can continue to drive." Mo Er explained.


    Zu Mingjun nodded and saw the carriages waiting in line to pay the fees in front of the toll station. He sighed: "brother Mo initiated the brick road, which is puzzling to the world. Not to mention the others, the wealth of Chang''an Luoyang line is rolling every day, and it will be able to return in less than ten years, which is enough to make the world have no doubt. Brother Mo''s vision is admirable!"


    Mo Er suddenly said proudly, "master Zu doesn''t know. Now this brick road has been two thousand miles long. It has been paved from Luoyang to Lanzhou."


    Zu Mingjun was shocked and said in surprise, "has it been built?"


    Mo Er nodded and said, "the news has come from Chang''an city. The Ministry of work has been working day and night, and all the paving has been completed five days ago."


    The section of Longhai line from Lanzhou to Luoyang is the best section to be laid. There is no large river at all, the construction difficulty is very small, and the brick road is simple. As long as there are enough red bricks, sufficient manpower and multi line construction, the laying of the whole line is finally completed in March.


    Zu Mingjun solemnly nodded. No wonder Merton summoned him in such a hurry. As soon as the brick road is open to traffic, I''m afraid the western expedition will begin.


    At the west gate of Chang''an City, Li Shimin led a group of civil and military officials to gather at the west gate and kept looking into the distance towards the brick road outside the west gate.


    "Come on, I''ve reported that the test carriage has arrived at Baqiao." Duan Lun saluted Li Shimin respectfully, but there was an irrecoverable pride on his face.


    At the beginning, when mojiazi built the brick road in the south of the city, it can be said that it caused a sensation in Chang''an city. Now, the brick road has been built from Chang''an city to Lanzhou. Duan Lun directly copied the set of Merton and came to a traffic opening ceremony.


    Baqiao is Li Shimin''s blessed land. At the beginning of the Weishui alliance, Li Shimin blocked hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry at Baqiao, which won a breathing opportunity for the Tang Dynasty. Duan Lun estimated that he mentioned Baqiao to please Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin nodded and took a deep breath. It cost a lot to build the brick road. Now it''s time to see results.


    Just as they were about to wait impatiently, suddenly a four-wheel carriage came at a gallop.


    "Coming!" Duan Lun''s eyes lit up.


    "See your majesty, see you adults!" he jumped down from the carriage and saluted Li Shimin and all civil and military officials.


    It was supposed to be done by others. They would make a prison sacrifice. In order to express their merit in front of Li Shimin, they volunteered to drive in person.


    "Wei Chen started from Lanzhou county city and passed through Dingxi, Tianshui and Chencang until Chang''an city. It took only three days. The brick road is the only thing Wei Chen has seen in his life." the general said excitedly.


    In order to get to Chang''an City as soon as possible, he kept changing the horses in the post station all the way. More than ten horses died in order to perform well in front of Li Shimin.


    "OK!" Li Shimin didn''t know this. Hearing this, he couldn''t help looking excited.


    It took only three days to get from Lanzhou to Chang''an, which is probably the fastest speed in history.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. From then on, the northwest will also!" the ministers congratulated. The brick road is so fast that the imperial court has greatly strengthened its control over the northwest.


    Li Shimin''s face was proud, but he said modestly, "I''m afraid we still need to win Tuyuhun to calm the northwest."


    "Tell your majesty, as the saying goes: before soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first. Now the brick road has been built, and I''m afraid food and grass should be prepared in advance." Hou Junji, a servant of the Ministry of war, helped.


    Li Shimin nodded and said to Dai Zhou behind him, "Dai Aiqing, come and arrange the food and grass for the western expedition for you Aiqing."


    Dai Zhou went out and said, "Your Majesty, according to the usual practice, the officers and men in the army need three and a half kilograms of grain for three days and 35 kilograms for a month. The number of people in the western expedition of the imperial court is 200000, which requires seven million kilograms of grain in January."


    Dai Zhou is now learning from Merton and likes to list detailed and convincing data.


    "Seven million kilos of grain!" people couldn''t help but draw it. If it was changed into money, it would be a great fortune, but now it will be used all in the western expedition.


    "In the past, we needed to recruit 50000 civilian men and 10000 chariots and horses to ensure the grain road. It took nearly a month and more than half of the loss could be transported to the border. Now, with the completion of brick road and the carrying capacity of four-wheel carriages as high as 5000 kg, it only needs 1500 Coachmans and four horses per vehicle in five days. The loss is less than one percent," Dai Zhou said excitedly.


    "Five days delivery, less than 10% loss!" Li Shimin immediately felt happy. The cost of building brick roads was distressing, but the effect was immediate.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. The grain road is unblocked, and the Tang Dynasty will win this western expedition." all the officials immediately congratulated in unison.


    Soon after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, these old ministers had experienced war. Naturally, they knew that once they went on an expedition, the biggest loss was not the rations of the soldiers, but the loss on the road.


    When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty went on an expedition to Koguryo, it was a huge loss that brought down the Sui Dynasty. Now that the brick road is completed, the loss of grain from Chang''an city to Lanzhou is no more than 10%, which is nothing to everyone.


    Dai Zhou then said, "this is the grain for one month. The western expedition will take at least half a year. The imperial court needs to prepare six months of grain and grass."


    One month is seven million kilograms, six months is not 42 million kilograms of grain! As soon as they calculated, they took a breath. However, this is the key period of the western expedition. Naturally, they won''t say anything more about it.


    "Moreover, this is just what Chang''an city needs to get to Lanzhou county city. After the army enters Tuyuhun, there will be no benefit of brick road, and I''m afraid the loss will increase sharply. From the perspective of micro ministers, it will take at least 60 million kilograms of grain to be safe." Dai reported.


    Li Shimin nodded, turned his head and shouted, "where is Su Ding!"


    "Wei Chen Su dingfang knocks at your majesty!" Su dingfang steps out at the end of the general.


    "According to my order, Su dingfang is responsible for recruiting carriages and escorting Taicang grain and grass to Lanzhou first." Li Shimin shouted.


    Taicang is the granary of Chang''an city. It is responsible for supplying the grain of the whole Chang''an city. There is a large stock. However, I''m afraid Taicang will be directly emptied during the western expedition.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei." Su dingfang shouted.

 Chapter 509

    "Mohou, you must help me!" soon after su dingfang took the order, he went directly to Youwei Valley to block Merton for help.


    "Just teach me Merton what this is. Brother Su is now the pioneer of the western expedition and the top priority. As long as you can do it, just speak." Merton said boldly.


    "Brother Mo, I want brother Mo to support a group of four-wheel carriages." Su dingfang said shyly. The most important thing to transport grain is the carriage. However, the Mohist family is a manufacturer of four-wheel carriages. Who has more carriages in Chang''an city than the Mohist village, Su dingfang thought of coming to Merton first.


    Merton said bluntly, "what''s the difficulty? Since brother Su spoke, my younger brother naturally strongly supported. In order to support brother Su, Mojia village dispatched 300 four-wheel carriages for brother Su''s drive, how about?"


    For an ordinary person, a four-wheel carriage is the foundation of a family''s livelihood. For Mojia village, the four-wheel carriage is just a business of Mojia village, which is not too difficult.


    Su dingfang stopped and said, "I''m afraid three hundred carriages are a drop in the bucket. Brother Wei is the food and grass for the 200000 army. According to Dai Shangshu''s estimation, at least 1500 carriages are needed. Can more carriages come out of Mojia village?"


    Merton looked at Su dingfang with a strange eye and said, "brother Su doesn''t want to directly recruit 1500 carriages and send them to Lanzhou at one time?"


    Su dingfang didn''t understand: "that''s it? Otherwise, how can it be enough for 200000 troops."


    Merton immediately patted his forehead and sighed, "I don''t know if brother Su has heard of the express passenger service from Chang''an city to Luoyang in Mojia village."


    Su dingfang said in a loud voice, "brother Mo, you don''t look down on being a brother! The express carriage in Mojia village is coming and going eight hundred miles from Luoyang to Chang''an city. This is the fastest carriage in Chang''an city. No one in Chang''an city knows."


    Su dingfang didn''t exaggerate at all. On the night of the Lantern Festival, the express carriage in Mojia village became famous. Now the express carriage business from Luoyang to Chang''an city can be said to be booming.


    Merton showed a trace of pride and said, "brother Su doesn''t know. Not only can the passenger transport of Mojia village reach Chang''an City in one day, but even the freight of Mojia village can reach Luoyang City in two days, with a load of 5000 kg and an average daily travel of 400 Li."


    Su dingfang thought deeply and said, "brother Mo means that the escort of military grain this time is like the general change of people, horses and cars in Mojia village!"


    Thinking of this, Su dingfang couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. If the escort of military grain could be like the freight of Mojia village, wouldn''t it greatly speed up the speed and arrive in Lanzhou in three or five days. In this way, he must be able to show his face in front of the Emperor.


    "No, I think brother Su can even change his car!" Merton shook his head and said.


    "Please teach me, brother Mo!" Su dingfang asked respectfully.


    Merton picked up a branch, drew a long and winding line on the ground, drew three circles in the middle of the line, wrote three place names and said, "brother Su, please see, from Chang''an to Lanzhou, you can go through Dingxi, Tianshui and Chencang. If brother Su takes the three cities as a transit, he can greatly speed up the speed of grain transportation without wasting people''s strength."


    Su dingfang looked at the three cities and couldn''t help thinking.


    Merton nodded and said, "if an ordinary person is allowed to escort grain and grass thousands of miles away, I''m afraid there will be huge public resentment. If the people of Chang''an city are only transported to Chencang, I''m afraid they will be happy to go."


    Su dingfang nodded and said that Chen Cang was only more than 300 li away from Chang''an and could return in two days. Naturally, there was no great obstacle to recruiting civilian husbands. Merton continued: "It''s easy to enlist 1500 four-wheel trucks from Chang''an City alone. Moreover, it won''t affect the livelihood of the people. It''s easy to enlist 100 four-wheel trucks from each city from Chencang to Tianshui, Dingxi, and Mojia village can support brother Su with 300 four-wheel trains. In this way, there is no need for the people to travel thousands of miles and no need to make a big move Brother Su can also finish the grain transportation task as quickly as possible. "


    "Two hundred carriages in each city! Isn''t it too little to carry much food?" Su dingfang asked uncertainly, although it was fast,


    Merton thought and said, "if you want to be fast, I have a way to ensure that you can increase the speed by another three points.


    "Can you improve?" Su dingfang couldn''t help looking at Merton suspiciously. It was an incredible speed to travel 1500 miles in five days. It was not the limit in Merton''s eyes.


    Merton definitely nodded and said, "since ancient times, it''s common sense to work at sunrise and rest at sunset. When night comes, the road is empty. I wonder if the general wants to transport grain day and night."


    "Day and night!" Su dingfang suddenly raised his head and looked at Merton strangely.


    Merton nodded affirmatively: "people don''t want to drive at night. First, they are afraid of mountain bandits and bandits. Second, all cities have curfews and nowhere to stay. Third, they are too tired after a long journey. However, it''s not a difficult thing for brother Su!"


    Su dingfang laughed and said, "there are escorting officers and soldiers to escort grain and grass this time. I''m sure no one in Datang dare to make an idea of military grain."


    Merton nodded. As for the curfew, with a military warrant, the curfew naturally could not control the soldiers'' heads. The rest is nothing more than recruiting more migrant workers. Walking at night just costs a little oil lamp and slows down. Anyway, the speed of four-wheel trucks is not fast.


    If you can escort the military grain day and night, as long as there are enough people and horses, I can guarantee that the first batch of military grain will be delivered in three days from Chang''an city to Lanzhou.


    "Three days." Su dingfang was shocked. If he could really do it, he would be able to show his face in front of Li Shimin immediately.


    It was only three days before the empty train arrived from Lanzhou to Chang''an city. And he is full of military food, which can be reached in the same three days.


    Su dingfang laughed and said, "there are no empty scholars under the high reputation. Brother Mo''s name really deserves its reputation. In the eyes of ordinary people, the very thorny problems can be easily solved in brother Mo''s hands!"


    Morton smiled and said with a symbolic shy smile: "brother Mo looks up to my little brother. The brick road has been built. I''m afraid the express transportation business of Mojia village will also extend from Chang''an city to Longyou. This is just the plan created by Mojia village. Brother Su is also looking for the way for my little brother. I hope brother Su will forgive me for his selfishness."


    Su dingfang took a deep look at Merton. Merton really can be a man. Even helping people won''t be embarrassing and people can''t refuse.

 Chapter 510

    "When Chang''an city comes to Lanzhou, the boy is naturally free. What my brother worries about is that he will escort grain and grass with the army after entering the prairie." Su dingfang worried.


    The expedition Tuyuhun naturally has no brick road, and the advantages of four-wheel carriages have been lost. I''m afraid it''s most convenient to use the most primitive two wheel carriages.


    Merton nodded. Most of the grassland was grassland, not even the ordinary rammed earth road. The huge four-wheel carriage naturally couldn''t bear it.


    Suddenly, Merton''s eyes lit up and pointed to the strange carriage unloading the stone machine in front. Lang said, "I don''t know if such a carriage can satisfy brother su."


    Along the direction of Merton''s fingers, Su dingfang saw a strange four-wheel carriage. Although this carriage is also a four-wheel carriage, different from ordinary carriages, this carriage has eight wheels, and each wheel is extremely wide, side by side. It''s not too much to call it an eight wheel carriage.


    "What kind of carriage does it need so many wheels?" Su dingfang was surprised.


    Merton explained: "This is a transport vehicle specially developed by my younger brother for the firearms supervisor. Brother Su is an expert in marching. Naturally, we know that if we want to camp, we must sharpen the wooden pile so that we can easily insert it into the ground. This is because the sharpened wooden pile has a small stress area and high pressure. This four-wheel carriage goes the opposite way, adding four wheels to increase the contact between the wheel and the ground and reduce the pressure, Even if it is soft land, it can drive normally and will not sink into the soil! "


    Su dingfang''s eyes lit up. Isn''t it that he can still drive normally on the grassland? He has been worried about entering the grassland to transport grain and grass. The four-wheel carriage in front of him gave him hope.


    Merton stretched out his hand and a soldier pulled the unloaded eight wheeled carriage for Su dingfang to watch.


    Su dingfang looked at the eight huge wheels and the ruts rolled by the eight wheeled carriage and the ordinary four-wheeled carriage. It was much shallower. He had once expedited Turks with Li Jing. Naturally, he knew that the land on the grassland would be able to bear this strength.


    Su dingfang looked at Merton with admiration and said, "Mohist mechanics really deserves its reputation."


    As everyone knows, Merton has repeatedly stressed that the core of Mohism is mechanics. Su dingfang is an eye opener today and has really seen the power of Mohism.


    "It''s nothing. Mohists are studying a new type of heavy-duty vehicle. Once successful, it can carry tens of thousands of kilograms. Even the muddy road after the rain can still walk correctly." Merton proudly said. He is usually modest, but as long as he is designing Mohist knowledge, he never dislikes high-profile.


    "Can you walk on the dirt road? I''ll look forward to it."


    Su dingfang didn''t doubt Merton''s boasting. Seeing the truck in front of him, he believed what Merton said. Nothing is impossible. "I don''t know how many there are in Mojia village? I want them all for my brother." Su dingfang couldn''t put it down when he looked at the eight wheeled carriage in front of him.


    Merton shook his head and said: "This is a carriage specially designed for the firearm supervisor. At present, there are only ten carriages, but the carriages in Mojia village can be disassembled. The four-wheel carriage and eight wheel carriage are just different sizes of bearing. If brother Su wants to, I can ask Mojia village to work overtime to make the bearing, and send 50 Mojia children to Lanzhou to ensure that they will work for brother Su before going to war Transform enough eight wheeled carriages. "


    "Thank you, brother Mo," said Su dingfang gratefully. Today, I was surprised to get the grain transportation strategy and multi wheeled carriages to solve the problem of grassland transportation.


    It must be a great achievement to be able to complete the grain transportation task excellently. Su dingfang secretly kept this kindness in mind.


    After su dingfang left, Merton looked at the eight wheeled carriage in front of him. Naturally, he could not fight on the battlefield in this war, and the possibility of obtaining military merit was very low. However, for the Mohist school, it was a great opportunity. He wanted to let the world see the powerful power of ink technology.


    "Brother Mo, you can start the test." Zu Mingjun said excitedly.


    Merton looked around and saw that all the boomers had been assembled and the bowstrings were full. He waited for an order.


    He looked at the excited Zu Mingjun and sighed in his heart that in this world, he is not only working hard for his own theory, but also the other hundred schools.


    Thinking of this, Merton suddenly brightened up. He went to the new Huihui gun, looked at Zu Mingjun with a smile and said, "today we will let the world see the power of knowledge."


    "Launch!" shouted Zu Mingjun.


    Buzzing! A recoil gun flew away with 50 kilograms of stones. Soon! There was a loud bang in the distance.


    "Five breath time, up to two feet and five!" Zu Mingjun recorded the data in detail.


    "Three hundred and fifty steps!" Xue Rengui opened his mouth in shock. The ordinary stone throwing machine was less than 260 steps. Merton only asked the children of the Mohist school to transform, but he suddenly improved nearly a hundred steps. How can he not be shocked.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction. The range of the recoil gun of later generations can reach 300 steps by firing 150 kg of boulders. Now it''s just 50 kg of stones, up to 350 steps. Although there is still a lot of room for improvement, that''s what will happen in the future. It''s enough now.


    "Continue the experiment and raise the elevation by five degrees." Zu Mingjun shouted.


    Soon, the catapults were launched one by one. In this era, of course, it is impossible to achieve much accuracy. The only way is to test many times and find out the closest number.


    "Brother Zu?" just as Zu Mingjun was burying his head in counting, a surprised voice came from behind.


    "Huaiyu?" Zu Mingjun raised his head in surprise and looked at the army Han who was covered in mud. After looking at it for a long time, he recognized Qin Huaiyu.


    "And brother Cheng and brother weichi, why are you here?" Zu Mingjun didn''t understand.


    "Merton didn''t do it!" Chumo grumbled. After moving bricks for many days, he found how wonderful life in the military camp was compared with moving bricks.


    "You have come to repair the city wall!" when Zu Mingjun learned the reason, he couldn''t help looking at the three with sympathy.


    "Brother Zu, keep an eye on it, or you''ll be sold by Morton and count money for him." Wei Chi Baolin said angrily. He was a son of a great Duke. Where did he do such rough work.


    Zu Mingjun immediately smiled bitterly. Now he said it was too late. He had already entered the pit.


    Merton snorted coldly: "it''s not a good habit to speak ill of people face to face!"


    The three guys teased him and didn''t avoid his face at all.


    "Ink offering wine! The city wall has been built. Can we go back?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Merton coldly.


    "Of course! You can''t do it if you don''t go. General Li''s military order has come. You can go back to the barracks after you recruit." Merton laughed.


    "I knew the general would never forget us!" Chumo suddenly felt like escaping from heaven.


    "That''s because the great martial arts show is about to begin. Naturally, it''s necessary for you three to gather the number." Merton mercilessly revealed the three''s good feeling of self.


    "Great martial arts!"


    The three of them were ecstatic. They didn''t care about Merton''s sarcasm. They quickly turned back and shouted, "brothers, the martial arts show is about to begin. We''ll go back to the camp immediately!"


    "Oh!"


    Suddenly a burst of liberation cheers came, and the three hundred team gathered at the fastest speed. Under the leadership of Qin Huaiyu, they left without looking back.

 Chapter 511

    "Toot!" a huge horn sounded.


    "Great martial arts!" Xue Rengui stood on the hillside and looked at the direction of the horn with envy.


    "Why, Xue Xiaowei is also excited." Merton said, looking at Xue Rengui''s eager expression.


    Xue Rengui sighed: "to be among the thousands of troops and attract the attention of thousands of people, which soldier doesn''t want such glory."


    "Why should Xue Xiaowei feel sorry for himself? With Xue Xiaowei''s hand, there must be a chance to show his skills." in his previous life, Xue Rengui still rose rapidly after entering the military camp a few years later. Now Xue Rengui''s starting point is much higher than that in his previous life, so he can naturally rise up in the wind.


    With the horn falling, a large number of right back soldiers appeared in their sight. Under the command of the drum, more than 10000 soldiers, like arms and fingers, formed a steel jungle, either attacking or retreating.


    "General Li really deserves his reputation." on the hillside, Merton and Xue Rengui looked at Li Jing Tongbing and couldn''t help sighing. They are also "now everything is ready, only waiting for the moment when my grandbrother is successful." Merton looks at the disheveled and untidy grandson. His continuous study of ballistics has reached the point of madness. His eyes are bright and bright. He bows down on the record and keeps calculating.


    "Hahaha, the trajectory has finally been calculated." suddenly, Zu Mingjun suddenly raised his head, grabbed the papyrus in his hand and said excitedly.


    "Congratulations, brother Zu, for opening up a new school of Mathematics for the Zu family." Merton said in his heart.


    "Same joy, same joy!" said Zu Mingjun.


    His ancestral family got a new knowledge, and Merton improved the accuracy of the return gun. They can be said to be win-win.

 Chapter 512

    "Your majesty!"


    In front of the Youwei military camp, Li Shimin just stopped in the humble iron birch Trojan horse built by Merton for Li Shimin. Under the leadership of Li Jing, the generals who had already waited bowed.


    Although Merton''s official position is low, his firearms prison is directly under the jurisdiction of Li Shimin, which is naturally welcomed.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive me." Li Shimin said loudly when he got off the bus. The western expedition is the most important event in the Tang Dynasty. Now the team of the western expedition will be known in the great martial arts show. Li Shimin will not miss this event.


    "Your Majesty, the reading table is ready. Please go." Li Jing came forward.


    Li Shimin nodded, looked up at the generals and nodded with satisfaction. These are the cornerstones of the Tang Dynasty. However, when his eyes turned to Fang Merton''s young face, he couldn''t help humming, ignored Merton directly and strode into the right guard camp.


    The generals could not help but bow their heads and smile. The generals who had married their daughters could understand Li Shimin''s psychology and couldn''t help but look at Merton sympathetically.


    Merton reluctantly touched his nose and followed with a bitter smile.


    On the battlefield, the west wind hunted and the war flag fluttered. Li Shimin climbed the Colonel''s reading platform step by step. Looking at the dense steel jungle under the stage, he couldn''t help but rise a burst of pride. This is his invincible army.


    "See your majesty!" in an instant, tens of thousands of soldiers suddenly saluted on one knee and drank in unison, as loud as a bell.


    "All the soldiers, please get up!" Li Shimin stretched out his hand and lifted it.


    "Wow!" all the soldiers got up in an instant, as neat as one.


    Li Shimin turned to Li Jing, nodded with satisfaction and said, "morale is available!"


    Li jinglang said in a voice: "Your Majesty has come to the barracks in person, and the soldiers can''t wait to show their style in front of your majesty.


    Li Shimin waved his big hand and said, "what are you waiting for? Let''s start!"


    Suddenly, the war drums beat, and the eight guards selected elite troops one after another. Naturally, it was impossible for the whole army to fight in the final actual battle, but each set the number at 500.


    "Kill!"


    Under the reading platform, there were thunderous shouts, and two groups of cavalry suddenly collided and entangled together.


    On the stand, a group of generals nervously looked at the two sides'' fighting team. The whole Tang Dynasty has selected only Hou Junji and Li daozong to go to war except Li Jing. If other generals want to share in the western expedition, they will have a chance only if they fight again.


    Under the review desk.


    "Ha ha! You Xiaowei''s brother is sorry. I''ll win a game first." Duan Zhixuan, a general of Zuo Qianniu Wei, couldn''t help smiling when he saw that his victory was decided.


    Sun Shunde, the commander of the right Xiaowei general on the losing side, although his face was embarrassed, he did not lose his demeanor and bowed his hands and said, "congratulations to general Duan."


    Li Shimin looked at Duan Zhixuan with satisfaction. Duan Zhixuan was a famous fierce general in the Tang Dynasty. He had first-class ability in unifying troops. It was reasonable to be selected for the western expedition.


    Morton sighed that the inertia of history was indeed very strong. In his previous life, Duan Zhixuan had presided over the first war against Tuyuhun. This time, with the promotion of Morton, he directly advanced the war one year. Unexpectedly, Duan Zhixuan still participated in the war.


    Then, a team of guards caught and fought. Soon, the other six guards also quickly decided the outcome. Qin Qiong''s zuowuwei lost to Zuowei Li Daliang, and Zuo Xiaowei general fan Xing lost to Zuojian guard Gao Zhensheng


    The last winner turned out to be a general with obvious alien characteristics.


    "Zuo Weiwei''s Qixin He Li." Cheng Yaojin looked embarrassed. Qixin He Li was especially good at cavalry. His left leading guard was defeated by his iron cavalry.


    He was lucky. At the moment, he just decided on the four guards. The defeated four guards still had one chance to win the last place, and Yuchi Jingde on the side was even more bitter. His right Wuwei had already been in the military array exercise and had been defeated, so he was destined to have no chance with the western expedition.


    "It''s the last place. I don''t know which general can win the laurel." Li Shimin turned his eyes and laughed. Cheng Yaojin looked at Qin Qiong, Chang sun Shunde and fan Xing. The world''s eyes were full of war.


    The four quickly drew lots. Cheng Yaojin played against Chang sun Shunde and Qin Qiong against fan Xing.


    "Please don''t worry, your majesty. I will certainly fight with all my strength. Even if I lose, I won''t lose your Majesty''s reputation." Cheng Yaojin said in a loud voice.


    "Since general Cheng said so, the younger brother won''t hide." the eldest sun Shunde laughed and waved his big hand. Suddenly a team of 500 fully armed cavalry came out, killing people.


    "It''s the cavalry again!" Cheng Yaojin''s face sank. In the first game, he was defeated by Qixin Heli''s cavalry. The elite of the cavalry also suffered heavy losses and had little power to fight again. Unexpectedly, changsun Shunde saw the weakness of the left leader and sent cavalry to fight again.


    "Ha ha, it seems that Shunde is an old man on the way." Li Shimin laughed.


    Li Shimin was not surprised by Chang sun Shunde''s cunning. On the battlefield, it was always changing in an instant. It was to seize the loopholes of the enemy. What Chang sun Shunde did was nothing.


    "Even if I lose too much of my cavalry elite, don''t think I''m going to eat me." Cheng Yaojin sneered.


    "I didn''t say that. Besides, what is cavalry now? I have a young talent who has found a way to restrain cavalry. Why should brother Cheng be so pessimistic? It''s really not good. You can ask someone for help!" the eldest sun Shunde pointed out.


    Suddenly, many people turned their eyes to Merton at the end. Merton was also stunned. He was sitting at home. Misfortune came from heaven. Sitting there honestly could cause trouble.


    "Grandson Shunde, is it the grandson family!" Merton thought suddenly.


    However, he did not know that this was only one of the reasons why Chang sun Shunde was unhappy with him, and the real reason was that he had always had the idea of cavalry supremacy in the army.


    In the army, the equipment and treatment of cavalry are often higher than that of ordinary infantry. Usually, the cost of one cavalry is enough to feed three infantry. Even generals of the same level often feel superior to infantry generals.


    However, it was circulated in the army that Merton offered the way for infantry to restrain cavalry, which made some cavalry generals feel stuck in their throat. Now it just broke out at the right time.


    Not only chang sun Shunde, but also other cavalry generals looked at Merton with a trace of banter.


    Cheng Yaojin''s anger flashed in his eyes. Merton''s Macedonian square array can indeed restrain the cavalry, but it is only in the martial arts field of the Imperial Palace, and the site is narrow. Now in the barracks sand field, the scene is wide, which is conducive to the cavalry. In addition, the soldiers are all famous heroes of the Tang Dynasty, and the role of Macedonian square array is extremely limited.


    One side of the Qixin He Li even stepped out and said, "tell your majesty, I also want to see the method of restraining cavalry of marquis mo."


    He was born on the grassland, lived on horseback all year round, and was a loyal supporter of cavalry supremacy. Moreover, he was reused by Li Shimin because he was good at commanding cavalry. However, once the status of cavalry was shaken, his value would be greatly reduced. Naturally, he did not want such a thing to happen.


    All eyes immediately focused on Merton.

 Chapter 513

    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and said, "Merton, what do you think?"


    Morton smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, this is a battlefield call. I''m afraid it would be unfair if Wei Chen rushed to help general Cheng."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the anger in the eldest sun Shunde suddenly rose. According to Merton''s words, if he helped, Cheng Yaojin would win.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton reluctantly. At this time, Merton replied hard. He was facing a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, which could not be defeated by copying a square array.


    Hearing the speech, the eldest sun Shunde suddenly snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "who can''t talk big? I think it''s a young talent. I''m afraid it''s just on paper!"


    A group of cavalry generals immediately burst into laughter and looked at Merton one after another with sarcasm. In their view, as long as the venue is enough, allowing the cavalry to run freely and want to defeat a tortoise shell, it is not very difficult.


    Li Shimin''s face moved. He was about to extricate himself from the encirclement. He suddenly stopped and looked at Merton with a smile. He knew Merton''s pee and didn''t give him pressure. He was not willing to take out good things.


    Merton snorted coldly and said proudly, "there is a way for Weichen to let the infantry defeat the cavalry!"


    "Really!" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise.


    Merton solemnly nodded and whispered in Cheng Yaojin''s ear. Cheng Yaojin''s eyes lit up and didn''t dare to set the channel: "it''s so simple."


    "Simple?" the people immediately looked at each other. Just two simple sentences could defeat the cavalry. In an instant, the people looked at Merton with a little more doubt.


    "Lao Cheng, it''s really not good. It''s a big deal." Qin Qiong couldn''t help saying that she often knew the advantages of cavalry in the army. If a simple idea could defeat cavalry, the myth of cavalry would have been broken long ago.


    However, Cheng Yaojin suddenly looked up and said in a deep voice, "no, I think this way may be feasible."


    "What?" everyone was surprised. They couldn''t believe Cheng Yaojin. No one could believe the talk of Mohist. Cheng Yaojin, who has been good at fighting for a long time, believed it.


    The eldest sun Shunde immediately laughed and said, "Cheng Yaojin, your reputation is not afraid to be destroyed in the hands of this boy."


    Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly and said, "you doubt nephew Mo Xian, but I believe nephew Mo Xian. Since General Chang sun wants to see Merton''s ability so much, he will let Merton command 500 soldiers for me and win the first World War."


    "Let Merton dominate the army!" Li Shimin was stunned and looked at Cheng Yaojin puzzled. Chang sun Shunde said that Merton was talking on paper, because Merton had never entered the military camp at all. At most, he just read a few military books. What is not talking on paper? "


    The eldest sun Shunde laughed and said, "since general Cheng believes in the Mohist family, I''ll wait and see. It''s the world-shaking magic of the Mohist family."


    Since both sides have no opinion, Li Shimin naturally pushes the boat with the current, and vaguely expects that if Merton can really create miracles again, it will be Datang''s greatest luck.


    "I lead the army?" Merton was in a panic. But he had never been on the battlefield. How could he lead the army without authorization.


    "What are you afraid of? Since people want to see your skills, you have to bite your teeth and splash their blood even if you die." Cheng Yaojin shouted.


    The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Merton''s idea was feasible. He personally commanded, and the odds of victory increased greatly. However, Merton personally came up with this idea. It''s better for him to show the limelight.


    Merton took a deep breath and nodded heavily. He didn''t think that his first leader was driven to the rack.


    On the battlefield.


    Wearing armor, Merton took a deep breath and strode forward, leading 500 infantry to the battlefield.


    "Hahaha, I have to say, Merton is still a bit like a model." Cheng Yaojin pointed to Merton on the battlefield and laughed.


    The other generals couldn''t help laughing bitterly, that is, Cheng Yaojin had a big heart and asked a fledgling boy from Merton to lead the army for him.


    The eldest sun Shunde sneered, "I hope wait a minute. Don''t be scared to pee your pants in the face of 500 iron cavalry."


    Cheng Yaojin retorted, "don''t be so full of words, General Chang sun. You won''t laugh when you capsize in the gutter.


    "All right!" Li Shimin waved his big hand to stop the tit for tat between them.


    They looked at each other and snorted coldly. Only then did they focus on the battlefield.


    Li Shimin and other generals couldn''t help but focus on Merton in front of the 500 soldiers. It''s a mule or a horse. Just slip around. Now is the time to verify the Mohist school.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    On the battlefield, the war drums beat,


    With the sound of war drums, the 500 infantry under Merton''s command were slowly divided into three columns.


    Seeing this formation, the eldest sun Shunde couldn''t help laughing. He had studied the combat methods of the Macedonian square array for many times and had a way to crack it in his heart. If Merton copied the Macedonian square array, he must let the Mexican family know what flowers would be so red.


    Many generals also shook their heads. This tactic, let alone changsun Shunde, even they had a way to crack it. In their hearts, their evaluation of Merton was a little lower. However, Cheng Yaojin was still in his old God and looked confident.


    "Lao Cheng, will you be all right?" Qin Qiong asked anxiously.


    Cheng Yaojin said with a smile, "wait to see a joke! Merton is holding his breath!"


    Qin Qiong suddenly realized that in addition to Qin Qiong, Li Shimin was also looking forward to watching Merton off the court. With his understanding of Merton, the boy could not tell when he was holding a big move?


    Sure enough, Merton waved his big hand, and the 500 soldiers behind him immediately took out their weapons.


    "Bow and crossbow!"


    Everyone was stunned and looked at the scene. Everyone knew that although the bow and crossbow soldiers had strong attack power, once they were close, they had to be slaughtered.


    The cavalry''s fast speed is precisely the enemy of the bow and crossbow soldiers. It can''t give the bow and crossbow soldiers much time at all.


    However, they had no time to think too much. The war drums suddenly stopped and the martial arts exercise was about to begin.


    "Drive!"


    Five hundred elite right Xiaowei soldiers suddenly urged the horses and rushed to the left to lead the guards.


    "Five hundred steps!"


    Merton remained unmoved.


    "Four hundred steps!"


    The left leading guard has been a little flustered.


    "Hold on!" Merton shouted loudly. The left leading guards sent by Cheng Yaojin are all elite. Remember the military orders and abide by the military array.


    "Delay the fighter!"


    No less than the general frowned. If Merton ordered to shoot in advance, the left leader guard would be able to shoot more crossbows and arrows. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Merton suspiciously. Could it be that Merton had been frightened by the momentum of the cavalry.


    "Three hundred steps!" the general of Youxiao Wei''s unified army suddenly brightened his eyes. He thought that the Mo family would have any tactics. Unexpectedly, he broke into three hundred steps and still didn''t lose a person.


    "Rush with all your strength!" the general of the right Xiaowei uniform roared, and the cavalry under the crotch immediately rushed with all their strength for 300 steps, which is the best advantage of the cavalry. Once they burst into the army array of the left leader, there is no doubt that they will win.


    "Mo Hou!"


    Murton''s deputy trembled behind him.


    "Hold on!" Merton shouted when the cavalry reached 250 steps, "the first arrow!"


    In an instant, hundreds of crossbows and arrows in the first row flew out like black locusts, only attacking the cavalry opposite.


    The eldest sun Shunde laughed and said, "it''s too late to shoot the arrow now. The boys rush hard for me to let Lord Mo see the style of youxiaowei."


    With his many years of experience, he naturally knows that Merton can only put three crossbows and arrows at most, so there is no way to recover.


    "Sure enough, it''s on paper!" many generals naturally agreed with this truth. They couldn''t help looking at Merton who was still standing in the front with compassionate eyes.


    However, the next thing stunned everyone. Merton shouted, "the second arrow!"


    "Buzz!" another round of black crossbow shot away.


    The cavalry of the right Xiaowei suddenly turned upside down.


    "Third row!" Merton drank again!


    At the same time as the crossbow flew out, the first row of crossbow men had refilled the crossbow, and then fired the second round of crossbow again with Merton''s order.


    Under the command of Merton, crossbows and arrows formed a continuous rain of arrows, like an invisible wall, which blocked the soldiers of the right Xiaowei from a hundred steps away and could not take another step.


    "This!"


    On the reading platform, Li Shimin suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him.


    The generals also suddenly rose up and stared at the continuous arrow rain one by one. They couldn''t help but be shocked. I''m afraid anyone who encounters such a tactic will only be destroyed.


    The smile on Chang sun Shunde''s face suddenly solidified. He thought he had a good chance of winning, but who could think that this short distance of 100 steps was like Tianjian, which could not be crossed.


    Cheng Yaojin immediately laughed. Merton really didn''t disappoint him. Even killed a way out of the desperate situation.


    "Three section strike!"


    Merton smiled. This extremely powerful fighting skill of later generations appeared in the Tang Dynasty for the first time. With his divine arm crossbow, the world was shocked for the first time.


    The surviving soldiers of youxiaowei tried their best to urge the horses, but in the face of the dense arrow rain, they were still in vain and shot off one by one. Although this is a martial arts show, the crossbow and arrow have no arrows, but the emperor is staring at it. No one dares to cheat.


    The commander of youxiaowei is superb in martial arts. He is a long horse. He is proficient in martial arts and can''t dance. He pulls away crossbows and arrows and rushes forward. However, he doesn''t find that there are fewer and fewer soldiers around him until he is left alone.


    "Stop shooting!" Merton waved his hand and immediately stopped the crossbow.


    "They have no crossbows and arrows, brothers rush for me!" the commander of youxiaowei suddenly turned back and shouted, but he was suddenly stunned. There were no soldiers around him.


    But the war horse under his crotch still rushed to the camp of the left leader guard according to the order. On the review platform, a group of generals looked at the scene of riding alone and felt bursts of sadness.


    "Mo Hou!"


    The Deputy behind Merton respectfully said that he was originally the leader of the left leader guard. Now he is convinced of Merton.


    "Shoot the horse!" Murton sighed.


    As soon as the Deputy raised his hand, a crossbow and arrow flew out and hit the horse''s leg. The war horse felt a pain. Herod raised his horse''s hooves high and bumped the commander of the right Xiaowei off his horse.


    So far, the whole army of the right Xiaowei was covered, while no one of the left leading Wei was lost.

 Chapter 514

    Merton was as bright as new armor, spotless. On the review desk step by step, he didn''t look like he had just experienced a martial arts show. It was like walking around the battlefield in armor.


    However, I don''t know what a shock it is in everyone''s heart. Everyone''s eyes are focused on the young boy. Even the temporary armor is still a little big and doesn''t fit him, but no one is looking at him with contempt, but a dignified face.


    Kill five hundred enemies without damaging one person. Even anyone thinks he can''t do it. However, this amazing war fruit appears in their eyes, and the destruction is the most powerful elite of Datang.


    "I''m lucky I didn''t disgrace my life!"


    Merton solemnly saluted Li Shimin and said.


    Li Shimin covered up the shock on his face and immediately changed into a calm face, but he couldn''t help showing a trace of satisfaction. Although he didn''t like Merton, after all, the marriage between Merton and Princess Changle has been basically finalized. The more talented Merton is, the more light on his face.


    "Get up! Victory is nothing. We need to guard against arrogance and impatience and learn from the generals." Li Shimin said faintly.


    "Yes!" Merton got up and said respectfully.


    "What a young hero! Under the same strength, the infantry defeated the cavalry, and mohou really didn''t say anything!" Li Shimin didn''t want to praise. Li Jing naturally had no worries and didn''t mean to praise.


    The generals also looked at Merton with shocked eyes. In the face of the continuous arrow rain, I''m afraid everyone will fall into deep despair. They frowned and thought. Even with human lives, they might have to pay a heavy price to rush forward.


    Cheng Yaojin, an old boy, could not close his mouth with a smile. When Merton offered advice, he expected to succeed, but he didn''t expect such a happy victory.


    On the contrary, Chang sun Shunde''s face was gray. Unexpectedly, Merton used this trick to destroy all his elite cavalry. Even Chang sun Shunde had never encountered such a disastrous defeat in his whole life.


    It''s a mule or a horse. It''s obvious that mojiazi is this Qianlima, but they are not bole.


    "Merton, what''s the truth? The crossbow alone can directly shoot the cavalry a hundred steps away?" Qin Qiong asked with an incredible face.


    Other generals could not help hearing that Merton''s bow and crossbow soldiers fired crossbows and arrows continuously, and could kill the same troops without damaging one person. I''m afraid these achievements are subverting their previous understanding of crossbows.


    Li Jing also smiled bitterly in his heart. I''m afraid his military book will be revised again this time.


    Merton explained: "this is the boy''s original three-stage attack strategy, which is inspired by the three consecutive shots in the pre-Qin period."


    "Triple fire!" everyone frowned. They would not be unfamiliar with triple fire. Triple fire was originally a salute in the pre-Qin period. It was divided into initial fire, re fire and triple fire. Later, it was quoted in actual combat. It is usually used in field combat. Usually, there will be a round of triple fire to kill the enemy, and then they will fight with a knife.


    However, Merton''s three attacks were continuous shooting. Even if his martial arts were strong, he could not stop the first wave, the second wave, the third wave, people and horses. It was a human life harvester.


    "Wei Chen made some improvements in the three consecutive shots. He divided the bow and crossbow soldiers into three rows. The first row was the initial shot. After shooting, the crossbow was loaded immediately. At the same time, the second row fired again. When the third row fired three shots, the first row had pulled the crossbow on the crossbow and fired again. The same was true for the second row of crossbow men, and so on. In this way, a continuous rain of arrows could be formed, and every time Every Bowman has enough time to load. "


    "I see!"


    They suddenly realized the truth and looked at Merton with a bit of surprise. Three consecutive shots are not top secret. However, all crossbow men have heard of it. However, they have never been able to create three attacks like Merton.


    "Wonderful! In this way, the cavalry attacking at the front must be the first to kill, and the cavalry attacking at the back just encounter the second wave of arrow rain. By analogy, it is like a shield formed by crossbow and arrow, so that the cavalry can''t enter inch." Cheng Yaojin patted his thigh. In the past, cavalry often rushed forward at the moment when the crossbow and arrow stopped. Although the killing power of the crossbow is great, the effect of killing the enemy is not ideal. However, the power of the crossbow increases exponentially with three-stage attack.


    "Superb workmanship!" Li Jing exclaimed. Bows and crossbows are very common in the army. However, he did not expect to change and play such a powerful power in the hands of Mohist Zi.


    "Everyone in the world says that Lord Mo is also a master of hundreds of schools. It can be seen that this statement is true." Duan Zhixuan sighed,


    "I found that these crossbow soldiers can always accurately hit the cavalry in the front row. How did you do it?" Li Shimin turned his eyes and asked the key points of the three attacks.


    The generals could not help nodding. It was the crossbow soldiers who killed the front cavalry first, and it took a certain time for the subsequent cavalry to rush forward. These time differences were just enough for the second wave of crossbow and arrow to shoot, which made the power of the three attacks frightening.


    Merton proudly said, "this is not the boy''s credit, but the boy''s good friend Zu Mingjun, a classmate in the Imperial College, has painstakingly achieved his skills, and finally created a new arithmetic ballistics, which can accurately calculate the landing points of bows and crossbows and catapults."


    "Ballistics!" Li Shimin was stunned. He also heard about Zu Mingjun. When he created the parabola, the Zu family used to play the imperial court. However, the parabola was not very practical at that time, and Li Shimin didn''t pay much attention to it.


    Merton explained: "parabola is ballistics in an absolutely ideal state. However, in practical application, when throwing an object, we also need to consider the force, and the inertia is extremely complex. Brother Zu was the founder of parabola. After further research, he finally created ballistics. With the support of this academic question, as long as it is within the range, whether it is a bow, crossbow or catapult!"


    "What do you mean? What do you mean?" the generals realized the value of ballistics one after another.


    "Where is your ancestral name now?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    "Brother Zu is in the valley on the west side. Naturally, he will use the catapult to demonstrate the power of Ballistics for his majesty later." Merton Lang said. He will not treat Zu Mingjun badly for helping him so much. He happens to be a favor here.


    "If ballistics really has such a wonderful effect, I will certainly give you a reward," Li Shimin expected.


    The generals could not help nodding. If ballistics can really improve the hit rate, it must be a great achievement.


    "Arithmetic!" the people murmured in their hearts that the road of concurrently cultivating hundreds of schools was indeed correct. No one thought that arithmetic could be related to strategists.


    Li Shimin waved his hand, and the 500 bowmen who had not yet come to an end practiced three-stage attack again. Looking at the dense arrow rain under the review stage, all the generals were excited and scared. They were excited that they had mastered such amazing combat skills. What they feared was that the weapon was fortunately on the side of Datang.


    "Three segment strike is not the most powerful, even five segment strike and nine segment strike." Li Shimin''s eyes lit up when he looked at the gap between the arrow rain.


    "Your Majesty is wise. In this way, the power of the three section strike will be doubled!" Merton quickly flattered.


    "But the risk is equally great. If it is an oversight and is approached by cavalry, I''m afraid all previous efforts will be wasted." Chang sun Shunde said hard.


    Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "what''s the fear? Equip all the bows and crossbows with long guns. Even if the cavalry get close and form an exotic array, they can also protect themselves."


    As soon as their eyes lit up, they suddenly nodded. If the soldiers were equipped with bows and crossbows and cooperated with the Macedonian square array, wouldn''t it be possible to attack and defend.


    Besides, if you really go to the battlefield, there will be multiple arms to cooperate, how can you let the crossbow soldiers personally take risks.


    "From my point of view, the most important of these three-stage attack tactics is the divine arm crossbow. If it were not for this new type of crossbow with long range and fast loading, the power of the three-stage attack would be greatly reduced." Qin Qiong looked at the crossbow in the hands of the officers and men as if she thought.


    Everyone nodded in succession. It was reasonable that the divine arm crossbow was created by Merton, and the three-stage strike was created by Merton.


    Li Jing''s expression moved and said: "I inform your majesty that the old minister has an unkind request. Can you take all the divine arm crossbows of the sixteen guards during the western expedition?"


    Although the divine arm crossbow has been produced for three months, it is evenly distributed to the 16 guards, with only 500 per guard. If you take it all and use the three-stage attack tactics, it will certainly become a great killer of the western expedition army.


    Li Shimin was in a happy mood and said, "why is this difficult? Li Aiqing has full power to decide."


    Merton showed the amazing power of the divine arm crossbow and the three section strike. If the soldiers of the western expedition can add this sharp weapon, the odds of victory will increase greatly.


    Even if Li Jing takes all the shenarm crossbows away, and now Zuojian and Mojia village are still fully producing shenarm crossbows, they will soon be able to fill the vacancy and will not cause an imbalance of force.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Li Jing said happily.


    The crowd then restrained their minds and continued the martial arts. The next martial arts show was Qin Qiong and fan Xing. However, Qin Qiong was seriously injured and even lost too much in her early years. It was not so urgent for the western expedition. Finally, fan Xing seized the opportunity and won.


    Although fan Xing beat Qin Qiong, he was defeated by Cheng Yaojin''s left leading guard who waited for work with ease. The last place in the western expedition was finally taken back by Cheng Yaojin.


    Morton felt no guilt about fan Xing''s defeat. This time, he saved him by mistake. In his previous life, fan Xing did not make much achievements in the western expedition to Tuyuhun with Li Jing, but had continuous bad luck. On the contrary, in the subsequent battle with the rebellious Qiang people, he was dismissed because the army was out of time. Fortunately, he was spared because of his military achievements, It was a blessing in disguise not to go this time.


    "Accept!" Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.


    "It''s cheap for the old boy." the generals looked at Cheng Yaojin''s successful face and turned their heads one after another.


    "Why don''t you believe nephew Mo Xianfang? Do you know that the reason why Su dingfang can transport military grain so quickly is the same idea of nephew Mo Xianfang. It''s an accident once or twice, and it''s still three or four times?" Cheng Yaojin inadvertently broke out another strong news.


    The generals naturally heard the news about Su dingfang''s transportation of military grain. The three cities transit and travel day and night. In this way, according to this speed, the first batch of military grain can be delivered to Lanzhou in three days. More importantly, the journey of the civilian men collected and distributed is only 300 miles. The civilian men have almost no complaints and are highly praised by the central government minister.


    Hearing Cheng Yaojin''s explanation, everyone suddenly realized that only the Mexican family who sticks to universal love can think of such an idea.


    Li Shimin knew more than they did. In Su dingfang''s compromise, even the eight wheeled carriage and crawler also played together. Naturally, he knew how much force Merton had put forward.


    For a moment, Merton''s reputation was not weaker than that of the generals. Although Merton didn''t really unify the troops, it can be said that this western expedition had a countless relationship with Merton.


    The generals were gratified and jealous, but on the surface, they looked at Merton like a newcomer.


    So far, the candidates for the western expedition have been officially determined. They are Zuo Weiwei of Qi Xin He Li and Zuo Qianniu Wei general of Duan Zhixuan


    Li Daliang''s left guard, Gao Zhensheng''s left guard, and Cheng Yaojin''s left guard.


    I don''t know whether it''s a coincidence or an accident. It''s all left back.

 Chapter 515

    Under the review platform, the six guards of the whole army stood proudly under the platform, one by one looking at Li Shimin on the review platform with excited eyes.


    At the moment, Datang is not just weak during the founding of the people''s Republic of China. In recent years, Datang''s national strength has increased, and it has defeated the grassland overlord East Turk, and the momentum of the whole military has reached the peak.


    For Tuyuhun, many officers and men of the Tang Dynasty did not pay attention to it at all. This western expedition, from generals to soldiers, was full of confidence in winning.


    Looking at the strong soldiers, Li Shimin said with great pride: "Tuyuhun has repeatedly violated the border and committed a lot of blood debts in our Datang. I don''t want to repent. Now I have a teacher of benevolence and righteousness to get justice for our Datang people."


    "Get justice, get justice!" tens of thousands of soldiers shouted in unison.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and shouted, "you can go out in three days. I will win the western expedition."


    "Datang will win, Datang will win!" all the officers and men shouted in unison, with great momentum.


    A group of generals also nodded one after another. In particular, the Macedonian square array and divine arm crossbow combined with the three-stage attack added three points of confidence to the generals.


    No one found that under the subtle influence of Mohism, the balance of victory in this war has quietly shifted to Datang.


    However, as the initiator, Merton didn''t feel much pride. Instead, he calmly prepared for the martial arts performance of the fire monitor.


    In the west mountain valley.


    Green grass sprouts have just emerged. The whole valley is particularly comfortable with green mountains and clear water. However, in this beautiful scenery, a section of the city wall suddenly appears in front of everyone.


    "This is the wall you want to build."


    Li Jing looked at the wall in front of him curiously. At the beginning, Merton borrowed from him. It happened that Qin Huaiyu and the three were not disciplined and were very stingy. He took advantage of the situation to dial the centurion team led by Qin Huaiyu. Who could have thought that such a high wall would be built in a short time.


    "The wall is two feet high and one foot wide. The time is limited. The boy has only built two hundred steps." Merton regretted.


    Li Shimin blushed and waited for Merton. The two foot high wall was comparable to the wall of the county city. The boy built 200 steps and didn''t know how much it cost.


    Cheng Yaojin smacked his tongue and said, "I''m afraid even the catapult can''t open such a high wall. How can I hear that this is built by my smelly boy brick by brick!"


    Li Jing immediately looked embarrassed, looked up at the sky and didn''t answer at all.


    Merton quickly changed the topic and said, "brother Cheng''s selfless help will be repaid by nephew another day. Today, I invite you to see the power of ballistics."


    "This is Zu Mingjun, Weichen''s classmate. He created ballistics," Merton said, pointing to Zu Mingjun waiting.


    "Cao min, Zu Mingjun, see the emperor and all the ministers." Zu Mingjun said in fear. He couldn''t help but look at Merton gratefully. If Merton hadn''t strongly invited him to the fireware prison, he wouldn''t have the opportunity to show it in front of Li Shimin.


    "The descendants of the ancestral family are really knowledgeable!" Li Shimin praised.


    "The late scholar didn''t dare to lose the reputation of his ancestors." Zu Mingjun blushed.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "let''s start! Let me see what magic is in the arithmetic that can be praised by both Mohist and ancestral families."


    "Yes!" Zu Mingjun took a deep breath, bowed back and began to adjust the angle.


    Merton pointed to a dummy beside a crenel on the wall and said, "tell your majesty, your majesty, please see, if this is the commander of the enemy, 300 steps away from the catapult, you can accurately hit and behead by using ballistics."


    "Beheading action?" Li Shimin''s brilliance flashed. Although he heard this word for the first time, he immediately understood its meaning. He once led the elite Xuanjia army to break into hundreds of miles a day and capture Dou Jiande. It is not beheading action, that is, the so-called thief first and the king first.


    A group of generals were also thoughtful, and Li Jing moved in his heart. This beheading action may be included in his military books.


    "Shoot!" Zu Mingjun calculated the trajectory, and a huge stone egg suddenly flew out. In full view of the public, he accurately hit the dummy on the city wall.


    "So accurate?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    Other generals also immediately brightened their eyes. Such an accurate strike can be said to be unique. In the past, the catapult was almost blind, and it was all luck.


    Hou Junji waved his hand and said indifferently, "what''s the use of a single shot in accuracy? As long as the general opposite is not stupid, he will be able to hide in the past. It''s not that he uses a few more catapults and bombards at the same time, he will hit one hit."


    Many generals also agree. Although these generals are in high positions, most of them are reckless. They don''t like these fine things and don''t want to spend more effort in this regard. For them, it''s nothing more than sending a few stone eggs.


    Merton was not surprised, but ordered the hundred cavalry soldiers to replace the stone egg with a black iron pimple.


    "I don''t know if the enemy can hide this time." Merton said confidently.


    "Gunpowder weapon!"


    Everyone was shocked and immediately knew that this was the gunpowder weapon of the firearm prison. The explosion in the back mountain of xuandu temple was terrible. Although Li Shimin ordered to block the news, as a general of the Tang Dynasty, he naturally heard about the situation at that time.


    "Your majesty!" Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help but get close to Li Shimin''s guard.


    "No harm!" Li Shimin waved.


    "Don''t panic, generals. Even the most dangerous things will be very safe as long as they follow the rules." Merton Lang said.


    Li Shimin nodded. He had seen the memorial of the fire monitor. Merton had already explained the steps of fire prevention to him one by one in the memorial. He was not worried at all, because he really couldn''t think of the possibility of accidents.


    Merton took out the fire fold from his arms and carefully lit the long lead of the gunpowder.


    "Shoot again!" Zu Mingjun shouted suddenly.


    Almost along the last track, the gunpowder bullet with a spark hit the position of the dummy again.


    "Sure enough, it''s very accurate!" they hit twice in a row, and they immediately paid more attention to ballistics.


    However, this did not end. In the sight of everyone, with a loud noise, huge flames burst out on the city wall, and a thick black smoke rose into the air.


    "This!"


    The generals were suddenly cold all over. They couldn''t help thinking in another position. They couldn''t think of anyone who could survive under the power of destroying the sky and the earth. If they were in the position of dummies, they might never be spared.


    "This is the gunpowder weapon!"


    Li Shimin stared at the soaring flame with his eyes and was shocked. I''m afraid such a weapon would subvert his previous understanding of war.


    Li Jing''s face was moved for the first time. This time, his military book was not repaired. I''m afraid it will really be rewritten.


    "From then on, I''m afraid that no matter how high the martial arts are, it''s like paper paste in the face of such powerful weapons." a group of generals handed down with courage and martial arts lamented. Since ancient times, peerless generals have been among thousands of troops, and going to the head level is like looking for things. From now on, I''m afraid this phenomenon will be difficult to appear again.


    "This is the age of gunpowder," Morton said proudly as the smoke dissipated.

 Chapter 516

    "Congratulations, your majesty!" all the generals said in awe.


    Li Shimin was also extremely excited. Since then, Datang has mastered weapons comparable to the power of God.


    "You are welcome!" Li Shimin looked at the ministers and said proudly.


    The fate of the founding heroes of all dynasties can be described as extremely miserable. However, there are no exceptions. The Tang Dynasty is one of them. Except for a few who committed death rebellion, Li Shimin did not kill anyone indiscriminately.


    On the one hand, it is the open atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty. On the other hand, it is Li Shimin''s broad mind, wisdom and extraordinary means. He is confident that he can control these arrogant soldiers, but in fact he did.


    But it''s not that he didn''t consider the disadvantages of these founding heroes, but as soon as the gunpowder came out, Li Shimin suddenly became arrogant. With this magic weapon in hand, who else in the world can compete.


    While all the generals were terrified, only Li Jing''s shocked face was relieved. All along, in the imperial court, he had plotted to play the memorial of Li Jing''s plot against him. Although he thought he was innocent and acted cautiously, his great prestige in the army was undeniably a threat to the imperial power. The royal family controlled such a powerful weapon, His position naturally adds a bit of security out of thin air.


    "Morton, although this gunpowder has infinite power, it is far from what you said!" Li Shimin said quietly.


    The generals were immediately awed, and could not help looking at Merton with frightened eyes. There was still a big gap in such power, and how powerful the real power would be.


    Merton couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin with appreciation. This is 99% of Li Shimin''s clothes, and the remaining one is afraid of his pride.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. It''s just an appetizer. The real meal is still ahead." Merton cooperated.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "I''ll wait and see today."


    The generals also laughed and looked forward to it.


    However, Hou Junji was unhappy behind Li Shimin. He was the Minister of the Ministry of war and should have commanded everything in the military. However, the firearms supervisor had such powerful weapons that he didn''t get any news in advance. Until today, he learned it like everyone else.


    In his opinion, this is not only Merton''s failure to pay attention to it, but also an expression that Li Shimin can''t believe him, which can''t help but make his heart unbalanced. Of course, he is deeply pressed at the bottom of his heart.


    "This is just a gunpowder bullet. I wonder if you can expect the grand occasion of ten bullets at once." Merton Lang said. At the same time, with a big hand, ten gunpowder bombs suddenly flew out. This time, the gunpowder bombs fell on the wall with the same accuracy.


    "Boom, boom!"


    Ten gunpowder bombs exploded almost instantaneously. On the nearly hundred steps of the city wall, the flames soared to the sky. Even if they were hundreds of steps away, they could still feel the energy that destroyed everything and the heat that came to their faces.


    Li Jing took a breath. He finally gave Youwei cattle, sheep and pork. Why is there almost no complete cattle, sheep and pigs, not to mention human life!


    "What kind of weapon did the Mohists study!" many generals were more afraid when they looked at Merton''s young face.


    Chang sun Shunde and Qi Xin He Li are even more pale. They always believe in the concept of cavalry supremacy and are superior to others on weekdays. However, if the infantry have mastered such a killing device, the cavalry may be like paper paste in front of it. Moreover, such a loud noise has a great deterrent to the war horse and can only become a part of slaughter.


    The two looked at each other and couldn''t help feeling sad. Maybe the cavalry advantage still exists in the future, but it is absolutely impossible to be invincible as before.


    Li Shimin watched the smoke disappear. On a whim, he couldn''t wait and said, "I''m going to the city wall and have a look in person."


    The generals couldn''t help but be moved. Who doesn''t want to see the power of such a powerful weapon.


    After the hundred cavalry officers and men quickly checked on their horses, they hurried forward and climbed the brand-new wall under the leadership of Merton.


    Only half way through, I saw that there were black patches everywhere on the new city bricks on the city wall, and a trace of waste heat was scattered.


    When everyone climbed to the top of the wall, they were deeply shocked to see the mess.


    On the city wall, a large number of dummies were blown apart, broken wood blocks were still left with a trace of sparks, and some wall tiles were deeply inlaid with broken iron sheets.


    "Clang!"


    The steel knife in Cheng Yaojin''s hand made a sudden effort, which pried off a deformed iron plate embedded in the city wall. He couldn''t help but smack his tongue and said, "if this kind of strength hits a person, even a man with heavy armor will die without life."


    The crowd looked at the brand-new gaps in the city bricks and nodded with deep thought.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "how much can this gunpowder bomb be made by the firearm supervisor?"


    Merton said without thinking: "this gunpowder bomb is 50 kg, and the firearm prison can only produce 100 in ten days."


    Li Jing frowned, but there were only a hundred in ten days, and the output was a little too small. He asked, "can we speed up the supervision of firearms and build more before the western expedition?"


    Li Jing naturally didn''t want to let go of such sharp weapons. Moreover, the gunpowder bullet not only has great lethality, but its loud sound itself has a great deterrent to the war horse. If it is used as a secret weapon, it will certainly have miraculous effects,


    Merton said with a wry smile: "the general doesn''t know. The cost of this gunpowder bullet is amazing. Each gunpowder bullet needs ten Liang silver, and it is limited by the output of key materials. This is the limit of production."


    In this era, the exploitation of charcoal and sulfur is relatively mature, but the output of saltpeter is low and the consumption is the largest. However, the supply is in short supply in spring. If the palace needs a large amount of saltpeter in summer, it may be out of stock.


    "Ten Liang silver!"


    Li Shimin immediately felt hurt. It was not the eleven that Merton had just thrown out. It cost hundreds of liang of silver at a time. It was really not painful for him to sell yetian. It was all the money of the imperial court!


    Gunpowder weapons can be different, and steel weapons can also be reused. Merton just rehearsed, and in the twinkling of an eye, a hundred liang of silver had disappeared.


    The crowd immediately looked at Merton deeply. The Mohist is worthy of the Mohist family. As expected, he is still a strong loser and spends money like earth. If a war comes down and thousands of gunpowder bullets are thrown, tens of thousands of liang of silver will be lost.


    However, Rao is so, but no one is opposed to making gunpowder bombs. Instead, he takes it for granted that such a powerful weapon would not be worth it if it were not for this price?

 Chapter 517

    "It''s really worthy of its reputation to attack and defend with ink." Li Jing blurted out his praise. Even the army God of the Tang Dynasty was terrified by the power of gunpowder.


    "The best attack is defense. You are all old generals in the army. You attack cities and occupy land countless times. You are just opportunistic. How dare you teach others in front of your generals." Merton said modestly.


    "The best attack is defense!" everyone was shocked and couldn''t help thinking. The bow and crossbow soldiers cooperate with the three-stage attack. It seems that they only focus on attack rather than defense. In fact, one shot of crossbows and arrows blocked the enemy 100 meters away. The enemy has excellent martial arts and can''t get close to him. Isn''t this the strongest defense?


    The gunpowder bomb in front of us was also extremely powerful. It roared and bombarded everyone''s mind. I''m afraid it was the most powerful weapon in the world. Everyone was shocked.


    "Yes, the best attack is defense. This time, Datang took the initiative to win Tuyuhun. Let''s ask, there are those who don''t open their eyes to invade our Datang border again." Li Shimin shouted.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the generals congratulated. This sentence is most popular with generals. There is only one way for a country that dares to invade the border, that is to fight. One refuses to accept and destroy the other, depending on who dares to invade the border.


    "Gunpowder can attack and defend. The boy also made a lot of gunpowder bullets of one or two kilograms. Ordinary infantry can carry them with them. If they are used on the city wall, as long as they can''t use up all the gunpowder bullets, the enemy will never attack the city wall." Merton said confidently.


    "Don''t talk big, Mo family. As long as you are willing to use troops, there is no wall you can''t attack." Cheng Yaojin is good at commanding infantry and attacking cities. He retorted.


    "If Uncle Cheng doesn''t believe it, can he make a bet?" Merton smiled cunningly.


    Hearing the speech, Cheng Yaojin stared at Merton, shook his head and said, "I''m not fooled by your boy. Who knows what moves your boy is holding."


    The people immediately laughed and pointed to Cheng Yaojin and said with a smile, "I didn''t expect that you, the devil of the world, will recognize counsellors one day."


    Li Shimin also shook his head and smiled. He said to Merton, "well, don''t sell off. If you have any treasure, give it quickly!"


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, he saw that about 20 hundred cavalry soldiers, led by Xue Rengui, were wrapped with a belt around their waist, with more than ten long and thick arms hanging on it. It was impressively a common grenade in later films and television.


    "Cover!"


    With Xue Rengui''s order, I saw 20 hundred cavalry soldiers lying on the wall and under the crenel. A crowd couldn''t help but look at a crowd of hundreds of cavalry officers and men, and didn''t show how to fight.


    "You can see at a glance!" Merton did not explain, but sold a pass.


    "Fire!"


    Merton can''t take out the rattling grenade of later generations, but adopts the most primitive lead mode. The hundred riding soldiers take out the fire fold and ignite the grenade lead in their hands.


    "Throw a bullet!"


    Xue Rengui suddenly shouted. Twenty grenades flew out and threw them under the wall.


    "Boom, boom, boom!" the explosion came from under the city wall almost in no order.


    However, this was not the end. Then another wave of grenades flew out. After ten rounds, the roar under the city wall continued until the smoke disappeared. The hundred cavalry soldiers got up and saluted Li Shimin on one knee.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, Xue Rengui took out a huge wooden box and opened it in front of the crowd. He saw more than ten gunpowder bombs neatly placed on the dry straw.


    "Good!" Li Shimin, ignoring the roaring ears, picked up a grenade and immediately praised it.


    From his perspective, we can naturally see the benefits of these grenades. Although the grenades are less powerful, they are convenient for individual operation. Once the enemy swarms up, the city will be lost. After several rounds of grenades, we can certainly turn the crisis into safety.


    What''s more, Li Shimin had thought that if he wanted to ambush the enemy, he would throw grenades one by one, and the war would have won more than half.


    "This weapon is good. I like it." Cheng Yaojin also came forward and smiled at the grenade.


    "Come on, I''ll try it too!" Li Shimin shouted excitedly.


    Xue Rengui immediately presented a torch. Li Shimin took it, lit the lead, and suddenly threw it over the wall. The grenade was only more than a kilogram. Li Shimin threw it twenty steps away with all his strength. After a few breaths, the fire flashed and the roar came.


    Merton explained: "there are two main injuries caused by gunpowder explosion. One is that the huge shock wave during gunpowder explosion is enough to shock people to death and injury. The other is that the explosion makes the shell of the grenade flat and broken. Fragments hit the human body with the shock wave, causing a lot of damage. No one is spared within five steps."


    "Five steps!" Li Shimin nodded and saw a big hole in his ass hit by gunpowder bullets twenty steps away. He couldn''t help looking happy,.


    Other generals were also very excited and ordered them to try their skills. After a while, more than a dozen grenades were thrown out.


    Li Shimin is still not satisfied. He is preparing to continue to send a few more rounds. He only listens to Merton''s leisurely saying, "this is a grenade. It costs one or two silver."


    Li Shimin''s heart was pumping again. He took back his hand angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "continue to build."


    "Your Majesty is wise. The old minister asked to resign from the position of senior general and is willing to practice a group of legions using firearms for your majesty!" Cheng Yaojin couldn''t wait.


    "Lao Cheng, you don''t want to eat alone. Who doesn''t want such weapons!" the other generals immediately refused.


    For a moment, the general quarreled.


    "Well, don''t argue. This time, gunpowder and ammunition will be given priority to the western expedition. In the future, a firearms army will be established to form an army alone." Li Shimin shouted.


    The generals immediately stopped arguing. If the firearm army was formed alone, it would certainly be directly under the jurisdiction of Li Shimin. It was impossible to have their share, but gunpowder and weapons left an indelible impression in their hearts.


    "This gunpowder weapon, besides gunpowder bombs and grenades, Weichen also has another more powerful explosive package, which is specially used to destroy the city gate. As long as the city gate is not sealed, he will be able to attack the city in one fell swoop." Merton pointed to the city gate under his feet.


    Generally speaking, if the defenders are weak, they will seal the city gate, but there are not no exceptions. Many defenders think they can guard the city and usually leave a city gate to fight back.


    If there is really a gunpowder weapon that can break through the city gate at one stroke, it will certainly have a miraculous effect.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin became interested,


    "Your Majesty, please follow me!"


    Merton led Li Shimin and a group of generals down the city wall and came to a simple viewing platform hundreds of steps away under the city wall, just facing the brand-new city gate.

 Chapter 518

    "Let''s go!"


    After the success of gunpowder bombs and grenades, Li Shimin couldn''t help looking forward to it.


    Merton nodded, picked up the blue flag of the auditorium in front and waved it. Suddenly, more than a dozen hundred cavalry officers and men, carrying five huge powder kegs and shields in their hands, rushed to the city gate as quickly as possible, piled the powder kegs in front of the city gate, lit the lead wire, suddenly withdrew and hid in the previously dug hole.


    "Boom!"


    In full view of the public, the fire flashed, and the solid city gate was like paper paste, and a big hole was blown out. Li Shimin could see the trees at the city gate through the thin smoke of gunpowder.


    The generals sank in their hearts and suddenly felt cold. They secretly warned themselves that they must seal the city gate if they defend the city in the future. If it was really an oversight and were blown open, we can imagine the end.


    "Sure enough, I''m not disappointed." Li Shimin stood for a long time.


    "The cost of this explosive bag is 1000 Liang," Merton added.


    "Let alone 1000 Liang, it''s worth 10000 Liang." Li Shimin doesn''t care about the price now. In the siege of the past dynasties, breaking the city gate almost represents the fall of this level. If 1000 Liang silver breaks a city, there will be no such cost-effective business in the world.


    Hou Junji on one side had a taste of food: "when there is a real war, the city gates are sealed. It''s up to one time to blow up the city gates. It depends on luck."


    No less than the general nodded. If gunpowder weapons were to appear, the whole world would be shocked. I''m afraid that no matter which city faced the siege of the Tang army, it would learn a lesson and seal the city gate,


    That is to say, it seems that gunpowder weapons have surprisingly good effects when attacking the city gate, but they can only be used once. If you are unlucky, I''m afraid you can''t even use them once when you meet a cautious general.


    "That''s right! If the city gate is sealed, such powerful gunpowder will be effective for the city gate, but I''m afraid it will scratch the city wall!" Chang sun Shunde hit the nail on the head. Although he believes in cavalry supremacy, he has fought on the battlefield for a long time and is keenly aware of the defects.


    "I can''t say that. If it''s a surprise attack, the defenders will have no time to block the door and still have a chance to break through." Cheng Yaojin retorted, but he also knows that this opportunity is very small.


    Li Shimin was also surprised when he heard the speech. Although this method of attacking the city gate has received miraculous effects, it is still far from the effect of destroying the city and the pass as Merton said.


    "What you generals said is that attacking the city gate really depends on God''s will. However, you will not be disappointed by the last big gift prepared by the boy."


    Merton flashed and saw the signal from Xue Rengui that the preparation was completed. He smiled mysteriously and suddenly displayed the red flag in front of him.


    The generals suddenly shook and stared at the direction of the wall. Merton had shocked them so much that they couldn''t help looking forward to it,


    However, I don''t know whether it was because people paid too much attention or for other reasons. I always felt that there was still no movement after a long time. One by one, I couldn''t help looking at Merton with confused eyes.


    "Mohou, this is the big gift you said." Hou Junji looked at Merton with a sarcastic face.


    Many generals also looked at Merton with dissatisfied eyes. Each of them was a high-ranking dignitary. Merton''s move had a feeling of fooling them.


    Merton immediately smiled awkwardly. This most primitive black powder defect was also obvious. The discipline that went wrong was not without. At the moment, he smiled awkwardly and was about to explain. Suddenly, a shock came from the ground, accompanied by a huge roar.


    "Earth Dragon turn over!"


    The generals were so frightened that they had no time to respond. The scene in front of them immediately left them there. They saw that the wall they had just stepped up suddenly collapsed more than ten battles in the roar.


    After a long time, the smoke dissipated, and the people still stayed there and looked at the front in horror. Hou Junji''s sarcastic smile immediately solidified on his face.


    "Destroy the city and destroy the pass!" everyone''s heart was immediately mentioned to his throat, and even Merton was trembling. Although he had expected this scene for a long time, he was still shocked.


    The generals set up their hair one by one, just like beasts meeting natural enemies.


    Such a weapon comparable to the power of the gods can be said to be the biggest nemesis for traditional generals. The force and military wisdom they rely on for Marquis are also eclipsed in front of this gunpowder weapon.


    Chinese people love to build city walls. City walls are the strongest protection of a country. Since people learned to block caves with stones to protect themselves in primitive society, people have never stopped building city walls. Villages have villages, and all counties must have city walls. The larger the city is, the higher and longer the city walls are, so that the world-famous Great Wall has been built,.


    Having a city wall means security. No matter what period, it takes too much to conquer a city with the protection of the city wall.


    All the generals thought they could attack such a high wall, but they were not satisfied with three or five thousand lives. However, in the hands of Mohist Zi, the city was broken with only a roar.


    However, it is not only the city wall of more than ten feet, but also the city in the hearts of the generals. The strongest guard they have always believed in finally has a flaw, which means that they have also had a flaw in the book of war and art of war.


    "I don''t need to repair my war book." Li Jing lamented that he didn''t need to repair it not because his war book was perfect, but because it was going to be rewritten.


    Today''s great martial arts performance by the firearms prison can be said to be a subversive impact on the strategists. Although the previous three-stage attack is wonderful, it is only an improvement of the bow and crossbow, which is also within the scope of people''s understanding.


    However, the emergence of gunpowder weapons is revolutionary for strategists. First, the value of personal bravery will be greatly reduced. The factors affecting the victory of a war will be transferred from force to weapons.


    After all, the power of a powerful gunpowder bomb ignited in the hands of a well-trained soldier is no different from that ignited in the hands of ordinary people. In the face of the attack of gunpowder bomb, the probability of survival is almost equal.


    Second, even the city wall can''t resist the attack of gunpowder, and Datang is the country with the most walls. Fortunately, gunpowder is in the hands of Datang, otherwise Datang''s situation may be very bad.


    Li Shimin could not help but look at Merton happily. There was a Taoist gate. The imperial court caught all the waidan sect. The saying that the pill was poisonous made the folk waidan sect empty, and put an end to the folk method of obtaining gunpowder.


    Merton played in person and established a firearms prison under his direct jurisdiction, which guaranteed the secret of gunpowder to the greatest extent, which can be said to be very foresight.


    "The cost of this item..."


    Before Merton finished, he heard Li Shimin waving his hand and stopped Merton from going on.


    This kind of weapon comparable to the power of God will not hesitate to pay no matter how much it costs.

 Chapter 519

    When they climbed the wall again, their minds were extremely complex. They were naturally familiar with the wall. But this time, they even felt a little frightened when they walked up the wall, which they trusted. They always felt some instability under their feet. However, seeing that Li Shimin and Merton took the lead on the wall, the generals were a little more secure.


    The last time they came to see the power of gunpowder bombs, however, although the power of gunpowder bombs was powerful, they only hurt the skin of the city wall. At most, they were charred or loosened a few bricks.


    This time, however, it was different. The whole city wall was blown open for more than ten feet and broke in two. People could imagine the shock in their hearts when they looked at the ruins of the broken wall.


    The mood of the generals was very dignified. From another point of view, if they were standing on the wall at that time, no matter how many weapons, soldiers and how well prepared they were, I''m afraid they could not escape. At the moment when the city was broken, a general guarding the city was broken through the wall, I''m afraid there was only a dead end, even if they escaped by chance.


    "Shouldn''t it be cutting corners?"


    Eldest sun Shunde couldn''t believe it. He boldly went to the side of the section and looked at the section of the wall. The wall of Merton was not built long ago. I''m afraid it''s not so strong!


    However, to his disappointment, Merton did not cut corners, but used real materials. All the walls were made of the best bricks and clay embryos, all bonded with glutinous rice juice, which was no worse than the ordinary walls.


    In fact, more than that, this section of the city wall was first built by Merton to test the power of explosion. It can be said to be the strongest section of all the city walls, but Rao is so, he still can''t resist the power of gunpowder.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but check it again, but couldn''t help but refuse to accept the fact that this is indeed a real wall. Merton didn''t exaggerate. Gunpowder can really destroy the city and pass.


    "Is there such a magic weapon in the world?" Cheng Yaojin was shocked. The generals nodded one after another. They haven''t returned to God yet.


    "How much gunpowder did the firearm supervisor share this time?" Li Shimin asked Huoran.


    Merton smiled, stretched out five fingers and said, "full 5000 kilograms of gunpowder."


    Five thousand kilograms of gunpowder is almost the output of the firearm supervisor in ten days. According to Merton''s quotation, five thousand kilograms of gunpowder is worth at least 50000 liang of silver, which can be described as a sky high price. Coupled with the damaged city walls, it is even more valuable.


    However, this time Li Shimin didn''t feel any pain at all, but endless joy. These weapons that can determine the victory or defeat in one blow are worth more than ten times more.


    "How much gunpowder is left in the firearm prison?" Li Shimin asked according to the excitement in his heart.


    Merton replied, "at present, the firearm supervisor has 5000 kg of finished gunpowder ammunition and 10000 kg of gunpowder in stock. Moreover, the current output of the firearm supervisor can produce 5000 kg of gunpowder every ten days. If there is enough saltpeter and more craftsmen, the output can be increased."


    "All these gunpowder will be needed by the Western expeditionary army, and how much will be needed in the future." Li Jing couldn''t wait to say. If these weapons are used properly, the world will be determined in the first World War, and Li Jing will not let go.


    Merton looked at Li Shimin when he heard the speech. Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "the firearms supervisor will make all the stored gunpowder into gunpowder bullets and hand them over to the western expedition for standby."


    The western expedition must win but not lose. Datang naturally wants to do his best to win this battle. Li Shimin will not be pedantic and hold a sharp weapon instead of using it.


    Merton nodded and arched his hand: "General Li, don''t worry, boy. Let the firearm producer make gunpowder bullets to ensure that they will all be delivered to Lanzhou before the war."


    At this time, the army has not set out yet. The army starts from Chang''an City and arrives in Lanzhou. Even if the brick road is smooth, it can''t arrive in half a month. Rao is so fast.


    However, Li Jing shook her head and said, "what I would want is not only gunpowder. There is mohou you!"


    "Me!" Merton pointed at himself in surprise and asked incredulously.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "the gunpowder weapon was created by mohou. Who else can use it well except you can use it. This western expedition naturally needs mohou to command the gunpowder weapon."


    In fact, Li Jing''s words are somewhat watery. Gunpowder weapons are simple and easy to use. As long as the idea and method, it doesn''t make any difference who uses them. After all, gunpowder is too important. If it is put in his hand, I''m afraid it will be criticized. In this way, the most suitable weapon for managing gunpowder naturally belongs to Merton.


    Moreover, the boy Merton has made many tricks. Maybe he will have unexpected gains with Merton.


    Li Shimin would not have missed this. He nodded at the speech and said, "OK, let Merton lead the firearms supervisor to Tuyuhun."


    Merton immediately bowed down and said, "I will obey!"


    The Tuyuhun war, which was pushed by him, took place a year ahead of schedule, and one of the purposes of the western expedition was Qinghai Salt Lake. Naturally, he was indispensable. Originally, he was prepared to start the salt industry after the war. Now it''s not a big problem to go ahead of time.


    Li Jing nodded with satisfaction and said, "I think it''s a good story that Marquis Mo first entered Chang''an City and wrote three poems about the frontier fortress. It''s a famous Chang''an city. Joining the army this time."


    The generals also burst into laughter and congratulated Merton.


    The elder sun Shunde on one side could not help his jealous eyes turn red. He tried his best and didn''t squeeze into the list of the western expedition. However, the Mo family got it easily. How can he balance his heart.


    "The list of the western expedition has been determined. All guards will prepare immediately and send troops immediately after three days." Li Shimin shouted.


    "Yes, sir!" the generals said in awe.


    By the end of the war, all the martial arts exercises had ended. The army starting from Chang''an city is six guards and one prison. Although the scale of the firearm supervisor is very small, after this great martial arts exercise, no one dares to underestimate the firearm supervisor. No one knows that the firearm supervisor with gunpowder will have unlimited potential in the future.


    After Li Shimin left, the generals also left one after another. After all, there were only three days left. Although they had made preparations, they were still in a hurry.


    "Lord sacrifice, you mean that our firearms warden will also participate in the western expedition!"


    When Merton told Baiqi soldiers the news of participating in the western expedition, Xue Rengui and others dared not set the channel.


    Merton turned his eyes and said, "that''s natural. Who else can use gunpowder bullets except you? Let the craftsman of the firearm supervisor go."


    "Oh! Thank you for offering wine!" Xue Rengui said excitedly.


    Although Baiqi selected all elite soldiers, they had a unique status and had few opportunities to go to the battlefield. How can they not be excited to see the western expedition this time.


    Moreover, the power of gunpowder weapons, but through their own operation, this western expedition will certainly return full of meritorious deeds.

 Chapter 520

    "What, you''re going to the western expedition!" said Princess Changle.


    "Yes, the firearms supervisor of the western expedition will accompany him with new firearms. General Li Jing personally ordered the general, and his majesty has agreed." Merton said proudly.


    Princess Changle said unhappily, "when are you still proud? It''s a war. You don''t know martial arts. How can you go to the battlefield? No, I''ll go to ask my father for mercy."


    With that, Princess Changle quickly got up and went to Taiji palace. Merton quickly grabbed her and stopped her back.


    Before Merton spoke, he heard a sudden cough. A sharp look stared at his hand. Middle-aged gong''e stared at the hand they held.


    Merton was cheeky and didn''t let go. However, Princess Changle couldn''t hang her face. Her face turned red and broke her hand away. She didn''t immediately ask Li Shimin for mercy, but waved her hand and said, "Liu e, step back first!"


    The middle-aged gong-e suddenly looked like, "princess, maidservant..."


    "Afternoon, Merton and I have something to say." Princess Changle couldn''t refuse.


    "The princess, the maidservant is waiting outside the door..." Liu e had to step down and gave Morton a hate warning before leaving,


    Merton explained: "I will not go to the western expedition this time, but will command the firearm supervisor to use gunpowder. Naturally, there is no danger."


    Merton did not tell the truth. Although he would not charge ahead, he was not without a threat. Once the power of gunpowder appeared, it would certainly become the target of public criticism and be the focus of the enemy''s attack.


    "Besides, this time, General Li personally led the army and could not beat a Tuyuhun. All the generals in the whole Tang Dynasty crowded their heads to grab military skills. It would be a great honor for me to get general Li''s generals!" Merton said.


    Princess Changle naturally knew that she was Li Jing''s leader, and Li Jing''s ability was recognized by the whole Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin used Li Jing as a general, but also to finish the battle, eliminate Tuyuhun in one fell swoop, and intimidate other countries around him.


    After all, Tuyuhun are cavalry. They come and go like the wind. If the front drags too long, I''m afraid it will be disadvantageous to Datang.


    "Moreover, I boast in front of the emperor. It is impossible to collect the bride price within a year only by virtue of the salary of the firearm supervisor. This western expedition is just the best time." Merton said with a smile.


    Princess Changle''s face suddenly turned red again. She looked at Merton angrily and said, "it''s all your boasting. What others don''t know is that it''s buying and selling marriage?"


    Merton said with a wry smile, "if I don''t make some expression, you think your majesty can let go so easily. Besides, it''s not the money that your majesty tests, but my determination. Otherwise, no matter how much money Princess Tang gets married, your majesty won''t be moved."


    Princess Changle was immediately moved by the speech and hated weisi''an. If weisi''an hadn''t made trouble, how could they be so difficult.


    "But I''m afraid it will take you at least half a year," said Princess Changle reluctantly.


    The two have just confirmed their relationship. It is the period of love. Suddenly, they have been separated for so long. Naturally, they are reluctant to give up.


    "Don''t worry, I''ve already prepared. I''ve arranged for the Mohist children to write to you on time every five days on the brick road from Chang''an to Lanzhou." Merton said.


    They suddenly fell into sweet memories, and the memories of their sneaky letter writing surged into their hearts.


    "Tell princess, your majesty summoned mohou." suddenly, Liu e''s voice outside the door broke the ambiguity between them.


    Merton immediately looked unhappy and had to get up. As soon as he came out of the hall door, he saw pound waiting there with a smile on his face.


    "Mohou, let''s go. Your majesty has been waiting for a long time," said pound.


    Merton smiled bitterly when he heard the speech. He was supposed to say goodbye to Princess Changle today, but he didn''t intend to see Li Shimin. He didn''t expect Li Shimin to specially summon him.


    "Thank you, father-in-law." Merton waved to Princess Changle who sent her out of the door and strode towards the Tai Chi hall.


    In the Tai Chi hall,


    Li Shimin was turning his back to the gate. There was a huge map in front of him. He didn''t even notice Merton coming in.


    "Your Majesty, Moho has arrived." pound came forward and whispered.


    "See your majesty!" Merton saluted.


    Li Shimin did not turn around, but waved his hand. Pound immediately bowed out. When he left, he took the door of the hall. In an instant, there were only Merton and Li Shimin left in the whole hall, and they fell into silence.


    "Universal love, non attack, Shangxian, Shangtong, Tianzhi, Minggui, non life, non music, economical use and festival burial." the light outside the window pulled Li Shimin''s shadow for a long time, and Li Shimin''s secluded voice sounded in the room.


    Merton said proudly, "Your Majesty, please remember that these are the ten basic concepts of Mohism."


    Li Shimin suddenly turned around, stared directly at Merton and said, "since it''s the idea of Mohism, I have a question I want you to answer today."


    "Your Majesty, please speak clearly!" Merton was immediately ready.


    Li Shimin said, "what I want to ask is Tianzhi!"


    "Tianzhi?" Merton immediately frowned. He thought Li Shimin had called himself to the audience because of the western expedition, but he didn''t expect Li Shimin to specifically mention the concept of Mohism.


    Tianzhi is the core idea of Mohism and the clear law of the world. Mozi Tianzhi first: "I have Tianzhi, for example, if the wheel man has rules and the craftsman has moments. The wheel craftsman abides by his rules to spend the world."


    However, not only the Mohists have Tianzhi, Confucianism also advocates Tianzhi. It believes that heaven and earth have will. Once the people are unable to make a living, they will be warned by heaven.


    At this time, Merton understood Li Shimin''s meaning a little, and immediately figured out how to answer.


    "All dynasties and all schools of thought that the natural disaster was a warning from heaven, but now your Mohist school has broken this eternal truth. Floods, droughts, locusts can be overcome. Not long ago, you personally broke the lie of Tiangou eating the sun." Li Shimin said word by word.


    Although the dog eclipse on the first day of May has not been confirmed, the various mistakes of the dog eclipse previously pointed out by Merton have convinced Li Shimin that the dog eclipse is indeed an astronomical phenomenon, not a warning from heaven.


    "Chen is also a bold guess." Merton swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said cautiously.


    Li Shimin''s face was completely in the shadow, only a pair of eyes were bright and scary, and said, "let me make you dare to guess again. Do you say that the Earth Dragon turning over is also a warning from heaven?"


    "Earth Dragon turned over, earthquake!" Merton said in surprise.


    "Yes, it''s an earthquake! All the three rivers in the Western Zhou Dynasty were shocked. At the age of, when the three rivers were exhausted, Qishan collapsed; Ye was shocked by electricity, which made him uneasy. All rivers were boiling, mountains and tombs collapsed, high banks were valleys, and deep valleys were tombs. The damage of the earthquake was heaven and earth, which often heralded the subjugation of the country." Li Shimin came out of the shadow with a ferocious face.

 Chapter 521

    "However, yesterday you bombed the city wall with gunpowder, and the whole ground was shocked. This feeling is almost the same as the earthquake. I want to know whether the earthquake is a warning from heaven or something like gunpowder exists underground." Li Shimin took a deep breath.


    Since ancient times, people have called the incomprehensible phenomenon the meaning of heaven. However, since the emergence of Merton, Li Shimin has repeatedly cracked and overcome it, and naturally found Merton''s head.


    Merton suddenly realized that he understood Li Shimin''s meaning. Since various natural disasters were overcome, coupled with the crack of Tiangou''s eclipse of the sun, only the earthquake was left to restrain the imperial power. In addition, Li Shimin felt the same feeling as the earthquake yesterday, and his heart naturally became suspicious.


    Merton immediately fell into a dilemma. He naturally knew the principle of the earthquake, but the earthquake occurred on the surface, which could not be predicted by future generations, not to mention the technology of the Tang Dynasty. Merton knew it but could not prove it.


    And once he said the principle of the earthquake, the imperial power lost its final restriction and became a power monster, he could not predict. Of course, the consequences of cheating Li Shimin were equally serious.


    Li Shimin did not urge, but waited quietly.


    As soon as Merton gritted his teeth, he came forward and said, "the earthquake is deep underground, unpredictable and unconfirmed. Although Mohism has records, it is only speculation. The result is that the Mohist sages themselves can''t believe it, let alone some ordinary masters."


    Earthquakes are not like eclipses of the moon and the sun. Although they are far away, they can also be observed with the naked eye. However, the earthquake occurred underground and there is no way to guess. Merton first gave a preventive shot to avoid Li Shimin''s disappointment.


    Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "but it doesn''t matter. I just want an explanation."


    Merton nodded and said, "Mohism is based on mechanics. When an earthquake happens, mountains and rivers break, houses collapse, and strong earthquakes are thousands of miles away, you should feel shaking. Is this not a force? It''s just that this force is too huge, far beyond ordinary people''s imagination."


    Li Shimin nodded. It is this kind of power that is too great to be feared and called the will of heaven.


    Mozi Tianzhi said, "the son of heaven is good, and heaven can reward it; the son of heaven is violent, and heaven can punish it." even if you are the son of heaven, heaven can reward and punish, and the earthquake is one of the most serious means of reward and punishment.


    "How can such amazing power be done by manpower? However, after the boy used gunpowder, he had a vague guess." Merton said in a voice.


    Li Shimin''s face was suddenly solemn and stared at Merton.


    "The boy thinks that the earthquake is not a sign of heaven, but a natural phenomenon like the dog eating the sun," Merton said positively.


    "What basis do you have?" Li Shimin said hoarsely.


    Merton thought and analyzed: "first of all, earthquakes mostly occur in mountainous areas, and the distribution is very regular. If your majesty lists the locations of earthquakes recorded in previous dynasties, you will find that the locations of earthquakes are like a belt, while there are few in other areas. Or there are no earthquakes at all."


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. If so, I''m afraid there will be a big problem.


    Merton also said, "if it is really God''s punishment, why doesn''t God directly punish Chang''an or the surrounding places? Isn''t such punishment the best effect, but most earthquakes are thousands of miles away."


    Li Shimin nodded. This is really a doubt.


    "According to the Mohist guess, what caused the earthquake? Are there minerals like gunpowder buried underground?" Li Shimin asked solemnly. The components of gunpowder, sulfur and saltpeter, are minerals. No wonder Li Shimin would guess so.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course not. When Mohists observed the occurrence of earthquakes, they often caused ground cracking. Therefore, it can be inferred that the cause of earthquakes is probably caused by the fracture of rock layers under the ground.


    "Rock fracture can cause earthquakes," Li Shimin frowned. This reason is too simple for him to accept.


    Merton nodded, looked around, and suddenly saw a pot of familiar potted plants. He stepped forward and pulled it out.


    Li Shimin blushed. This potted plant was the one that Merton survived when demonstrating the governance of the Yellow River. However, in the end, it has not escaped Merton''s poison.


    Merton reached out to remove the trunk of the potted plant, picked up the trunk, held it with both hands, and made a sudden force. The trunk of the potted plant snapped from the middle.


    "Your Majesty, this is the strength generated when it breaks." Merton handed half of the broken potted trunk to Li Shimin.


    "This is the reason for the earthquake!" Li Shimin looked at Merton with a bad face. The boy destroyed his favorite potted plant, but gave him such an answer.


    Merton said without shame: "yes, the breaking force of a branch is naturally very small, but if people put their hands on the broken place, they can still feel pain, but what if the trunk held by one person is broken?"


    Li Shimin was awe inspiring. That kind of strength might kill a person.


    "According to the Mohist investigation, there are rocks under the soil. Your majesty, imagine how strong it would be if the rocks several miles thick or even more than ten miles thick were broken." Merton said excitedly.


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up. This time, he believed Merton''s statement that under the ground, except soil is stone. Perhaps only this explanation can answer the cause of the earthquake!


    "It''s true that there is no heavenly will." Li Shimin suddenly rejoiced. His heart was like a big stone being removed, and he was refreshed.


    Merton suddenly sighed: "of course, this speculation can not be confirmed. After all, the earthquake is underground. Don''t say you don''t know where an earthquake will occur. Even after the earthquake, it can''t be confirmed in depth."


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly darkened. Although he had broken the induction between heaven and man, he also knew that even if he said this theory to Merton, those old die hards could not accept it.


    The secret of Tiangou''s eclipse of the sun only needs to be revealed on the first day of May. However, I''m afraid the popularity of earthquakes is still far from important.


    "OK, step back! Don''t talk to anyone about today." Li Shimin looked at the map and said coldly.


    Now the most important thing in the Tang Dynasty is the western expedition. Before the end of the western expedition, there can be no negligence. Li Shimin doesn''t want a fire in the backyard at this time.


    "I understand!" Merton nodded and bowed back.


    When Merton retreated, Li Shimin clapped his hands, and pound came in from the outside of the hall.


    "What''s your Majesty''s order!" said pound.


    Li Shimin said, "the king of Wei once said to me that he wanted to write a book on mountain geography to correct the name of the Datang mountains. It was really a piece of loyalty. He sent orders to reward a thousand liang of silver and collect a hundred volumes of books as a reward."


    Merton never thought that the famous local chronicles of Li Tai in later generations would be born in advance because of him.

 Chapter 522

    "Carts rattled, horses rustled, and pedestrians'' bows and arrows were on their backs. Yeniang''s wife walked to see each other off, but the dust disappeared from the Xianyang bridge. Holding clothes and feet, he stopped the road and cried, and the cry went up to the sky." this is a poem familiar to Du Fu, describing the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.


    However, the western expedition was another scene. There was no dust on the wide and straight brick road, which was enough to drive four carriages in parallel. Soldiers gathered one by one and couldn''t see the edge at a glance.


    The relatives on both sides of the road not only have no sad color, but admonish their children one by one to bravely kill the enemy and serve the country and strive for meritorious service.


    When Merton saw this, he suddenly felt that this was the new atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone competed to fight for the country. I''m afraid that''s why the prosperous Tang Dynasty said.


    "Young master, take care!" Fubo led the people of Mo house to send them off.


    People had expected that Merton would join the army. In those years, merlie, the father of Merton, won a marquis for the Mohist school by fighting all the last details of the Mohist school. Now, Merton has followed the old path of his father.


    "Don''t worry, my young master won''t fight the enemy himself." Merton said with a look of indifference.


    Lao Zhang''s head followed him and handed a package to Merton. He said mysteriously: "young master, this is the best armor made of steel in the Mexican family. Even if you encounter three strong bows, you will be safe."


    "Thank you, Uncle Zhang!"


    Merton quickly took it down. With the help of tie an, he changed into new armor. Suddenly, a brave young soldier appeared in front of the crowd. Lao Zhang smiled and looked at his masterpiece with pride.


    "Have other Mohist children''s armor been ready?" Merton touched his armor and nodded with satisfaction. In addition to the sixteen guards, many government soldiers were recruited around Chang''an City, and 100 children of Mohist village were also recruited. Of course, they did not directly join the army to the front line, but joined as a technical arm under the operation of Merton. If there were bows and crossbows or weapons damaged in the army, Mohist children could show their strengths.


    "Don''t worry, young master. They are all made of high-quality steel and first-class armor. All the children of Mohism have one." Lao Zhang said proudly.


    Merton immediately felt relieved that in this era, the government soldiers have to bring their own weapons in war. The Mojia village does not lack good steel or skills. Naturally, it will not treat its own people badly, even if they don''t have to fight in person.


    "Young master, the children of Mohism are ready!" tie an, wearing heavy armor, but as light as nothing, walked freely to Merton.


    Merton looked at the Mohist children behind Tie''an and nodded with satisfaction. Although the Mohist children are not as disciplined as soldiers, they are well-trained after being trained in the Mohist village.


    "After I leave, Mojia village will be handed over to you. From today on, except for the section from Chang''an city to Lanzhou, the rest of Mojia village will shrink. You''d rather miss it than make mistakes." Merton turned to Fubo and said.


    "If you encounter difficulties, follow the orders of Han Fu Zi." Merton said. Han Fu Zi is a great sage of legalism. Although he has no real power, there are countless disciples and old officials. With Han Fu Zi, and the aura of Li Shimin, this is the reason why Merton can rest assured of the western expedition.


    Fuber nodded solemnly and said, "I''ll understand!"


    Merton ordered again, and then it was arranged.


    "Wine worship Lord, the firearm supervisor is ready." Xue Rengui, dressed in red armor, came forward to report when he saw that Merton was free.


    Behind Xue Rengui, fifty hundred cavalry soldiers stood proudly on horses, guarding the goods of ten carriages. Each carriage was tightly wrapped and no one was allowed to approach.


    The battle of the firearm supervisor immediately attracted the attention of many officers and men. It can be said that among all the armies, the firearm supervisor had the most luggage. Fifty people even pulled the luggage of ten carriages. If the whole army fought like this, logistics alone would drag people down. Fortunately, such an army is only the first firearm supervisor team.


    Merton nodded. About the firearm supervisor, Merton handed it over to Zhang Mu as a guard and kept transporting gunpowder for the western expedition.


    Soon after the firearm supervisors assembled, another team gathered next to Merton.


    "Young master!" Mo Wu, dressed in a white coat, bowed.


    Behind Mo Wu, dozens of doctors in Mo hospital stood loosely. All of them were in white coats and attracted everyone''s attention in the army with armour and stomach. This was the medical soldier temporarily served by the doctors in Mo hospital.


    So far, the three special arms have officially gathered around Merton. The firearm supervisor in red armour, the Mohist children in black armour, the medical children in white coat, red and black and white, three different colors are in the army. It''s difficult not to attract attention, especially the white doctors.


    "Doctor!"


    "Doctor of Mo hospital!"


    No matter generals or soldiers, their eyes brighten when they see a group of white coats. When they march to war, death and injury are inevitable. However, a wise doctor has the ability to bring the dead back to life. After being injured, they may die when they meet a quack doctor. When they meet a famous doctor, they may be able to pick up a life from King Yan. Obviously, the medical skills of doctors in Mo hospital are world-famous, Nature is not a quack.


    The doctors of Mohist hospital went to the army this time is Merton''s suggestion to Sun Simiao. If doctors want to develop and become famous, they naturally can''t do without the support of the imperial court.


    This western expedition is the best opportunity to prove the value of doctors. If the wounded soldiers can be cured on a large scale, the doctors will certainly usher in a huge outbreak period.


    As a result, Mohist hospital began to train a large number of surgeons as early as the beginning of the year. This time, during the western expedition, more than half of the surgeons in Mohist hospital were taken out, and Mohist five, as a personal disciple of old Chinese, naturally came here and led the team in person.


    "With the doctors of Mo hospital, the western expedition will be carefree."


    "It''s said that even if the injury is serious, as long as it is carried to Mo hospital alive, it can be cured."


    Many soldiers were suddenly calm and looked at a group of doctors in white with hot eyes. Their fear was suddenly relieved.


    The relatives who came to see them off were determined in their hearts. The name of the Mexican hospital was not well-known. With the miracle doctor of the Mexican hospital, even if the soldiers were injured, it would not matter.


    On the west gate, Li Shimin was keenly aware of the changes in the soldiers'' hearts and couldn''t help nodding slowly. He couldn''t help thinking of Merton''s memorial asking the doctor to accompany the army.


    "The doctor follows the army. On the one hand, he can treat the soldiers as much as possible and let more injuries survive; on the other hand, he can calm the army. As long as it is not a fatal injury, it can save nine times out of ten. The soldiers have no worries and naturally kill the enemy bravely."


    Nine times out of ten, it is not empty words to save the wounded. After the long-term experience of the Mexican hospital in treating the wounded, the doctors of the Mexican hospital can be said to be the most skilled doctors in the world. They are qualified and confident to say such a big story.


    Li Shimin didn''t expect that the effect would be so good. The effect was immediate before the war began.

 Chapter 523

    The west wind hunts. Under the west gate, there are many long guns, flying brocade flags and roaring horses.


    "Your majesty! The time has come!"


    Pound looked at the hour behind Li Shimin and said a word to remind him.


    Li Shimin nodded, waved his big hand and said, "beat the drum and go out!"


    Suddenly, eighteen war drums beat on the west gate, and the sound of the drums shook the sky and spread all over Chang''an city.


    "We''re going to fight!"


    The people of Chang''an City were stunned and looked towards the west gate. It was four years ago that Datang won a great victory and defeated the Turks, the most powerful enemy of Datang.


    This time, Tuyuhun in the western expedition was reported by Mo magazine and Confucian magazine. People were already filled with righteous indignation. They heard that the imperial court sent troops to teach Tuyuhun a lesson, and they shouted happily.


    "Let''s go!"


    Li Jing, who was wearing armor, gave a military salute to Li Shimin of the city wall, got up, mounted his horse and took the lead in jumping off.


    "Boom, boom!" the army followed and rushed out of the west gate of Chang''an city.


    The first to leave was naturally the right guard led by Li Jing. Then, Zuo Xiaowei and Zuo Wei... When Cheng biting Jin led his left leader guard proudly past Merton, this round of fire monitor set out for the battle.


    "Wine worship Lord, it''s time to go out!" Xue Rengui reminded.


    Merton nodded and looked up at the city wall. A Miaoman figure was particularly eye-catching wearing a gold strand.


    "Princess Changle!"


    People''s hearts moved. The story of Princess Changle and mojiazi had been spread all over the world. In addition, the iconic golden strand was clear at a glance.


    Merton waved to Princess Changle. When he saw Princess Changle waving back, he turned over and mounted the horse.


    "Drive!"


    The firearm supervisors set off one after another until the figure of the firearm supervisor gradually moved away. Princess Changle took back her eyes.


    "This smelly boy!" Li Shimin couldn''t help humming when he saw this scene.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Turning straight on the road, the shadow under Merton''s crotch was like regaining freedom. Under Merton''s control, the shadow ran back and forth in the team, very vigorous.


    "It''s really a good horse!" Cheng Yaojin, who also inspected the army, just inspected the rear army. When he saw the vigorous shadow, he couldn''t help praising it. Jue Ying has been training in Mo mansion since she recovered. She has already recovered her former Shenjun.


    "Uncle Cheng is flattered. Although the vanishing shadow is good, it can''t be compared with Uncle Cheng''s battle horse!" Merton praised Cheng Yaojin''s unusually strong yellow puma.


    Cheng Yaojin immediately showed a proud look and said, "this horse can be said to have followed me for many years. When I hit the Turks in the north, I rode this horse to break the teeth of the Turks."


    "Uncle Cheng Yingwu!" Morton flattered.


    "Mohism is really rich and powerful. Nephew Mo, it''s comfortable for you to march!" Cheng Yaojin smacked at the long carriage team of the fire monitor.


    In the team led by Merton, in addition to more than 30 hundred cavalry officers and soldiers on horseback, half of the Mohist children walk and half drive. When they are tired of marching, they can rotate.


    As for the doctors of Mo hospital, they all take carriages. There are more horses and carts in the whole team than people. This March is the envy of the left leader of the rear team.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "Uncle Cheng, except for hundreds of horses, most of the boys are led by ordinary people. Naturally, they can''t compare with the long-trained firearms prison. If they want to March like ordinary soldiers, it''s estimated that they will be reduced by half if they can''t reach Lanzhou. How can they go to battle to serve the country."


    Cheng Yaojin nodded and said, "I naturally have no opinion, but injustice is the most taboo in the army. I also remind nephew Mo Xian."


    Merton suddenly realized that there were many proud and powerful generals in the army. If he saw that the firearm supervisor was so relaxed and determined to be dissatisfied, he might have more trouble. He hugged Cheng Yaojin with gratitude and said, "thank you for your advice. I know what to do."


    Under Cheng Yaojin''s curiosity, Merton waved his big hand and shouted, "the Mexican hospital raises the flag."


    Suddenly, more than twenty four wheeled carriages raised the Red Cross flag at the same time. Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help but smack his tongue and said, "there are twenty carriages in the ink hospital alone."


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is nothing. This is the first batch of common wound and common drugs. A large number of real medicinal materials are still hoarding in Chang''an City, waiting for general Su to help us transport them."


    "Young master, what can I do for you?" Mo Wuyi, dressed in white, panted and ran in front of Merton.


    Merton looked at Mo Wu, who had been running for a while, and couldn''t help sweating. He frowned and said, "it''s only a year and a half. Your body is so weak."


    When Mojia village was poor, Mowu was thin, but also very strong. He was not as weak as he is now.


    Mo Wu said with a bitter smile, "what the young master taught me is."


    He has been studying hard in Mohist hospital recently, and his health has indeed decreased greatly. He is still young and strong, no different from an ordinary person.


    "You should immediately send the medical team of Mo hospital into six teams, one team, two carriages, an ambulance, a medicine cart, and hurry to each guard." Merton ordered.


    Mo Wu immediately wondered, "why is this? Haven''t you fought yet? There are no wounded soldiers who need treatment."


    Not only Mo Wu was puzzled, but even Cheng Yaojin was greatly puzzled. He mentioned that Merton''s troops were too good. I''m afraid other soldiers were dissatisfied. However, Merton drove the carriage directly to the six guards.


    Merton explained: "although there is no injury treatment, you can teach the soldiers first aid knowledge at rest."


    "First aid knowledge!" Mo Wu thought.


    "Nephew Mo, this is a wonderful plan! In this way, let alone these doctors in carriages, they are willing to carry them!" Cheng Yaojin praised.


    Merton nodded and said, "remember, we should focus on publicity. That is, as long as it is carried to you alive, you are sure to save him."


    "Ah! It''s impossible!" Mo Wu''s palm trembled.


    Merton frowned and asked, "what is the cure rate of injuries in your hospital?"


    "Ninety percent! If the injury is too serious, there is no way." Mo Wu answered truthfully.


    "Say by ten percent!" Cheng Yaojin suddenly shouted.


    Mo Wu didn''t understand: "isn''t that cheating the soldiers?"


    Cheng Yaojin said faintly, "is there any difference between 90% and 100%. What the soldiers need is living faith. As for the serious injury, it can only be resigned to fate."


    The cure rate of 90% is not too high compared with the cure rate of 30% of the wounded soldiers in the military.


    "Little understand!" Mo Wu suddenly said.


    Then he returned to the motorcade. Soon, twelve carriages set off one after another. When the Red Cross flag of Mo hospital floated in front of all the soldiers, the name of the doctor instantly spread to all the soldiers.

 Chapter 524

    "The injury is not terrible. The key is to stop bleeding. As long as the blood is stopped, there is no fear of life." when night falls, Mo Wu, dressed in a doctor''s white coat, explained to a group of soldiers in the Youwei camp.


    "Really?" a green faced recruit was surprised.


    "Don''t talk nonsense, little doll. How old are you? You''ve only been practicing medicine for a few years. What disease can you cure?" a veteran said sarcastically.


    "You don''t know. This is mo Wu, a famous doctor of Mo hospital. He has won the true legend of Chinese miracle doctor and the guidance of Sun Simiao. His medical skills are not comparable to those of a Jianghu doctor." Qin Huaiyu''s voice sounded among the soldiers.


    "It''s a famous doctor''s son!" the soldiers looked at Mo Wu''s expression, which was a little less despised and a little more dignified.


    "Was it mo Wu who beat Chang''an''s famous hanging silk to diagnose his pulse last year before Mo hospital?" a child in Guanzhong suddenly realized.


    At the beginning, the descendant of hanging silk to diagnose the pulse challenged Mo hospital. Mo Wu fought alone and defeated easily. At that time, it was also spread for a while, and many people in Guanzhong also heard of it.


    "Mo Wu!"


    More people are thoughtful. Mo Wu is obviously a member of Mohism. Mo Wu is probably the link between Mohism and doctors.


    With the help of Qin Huaiyu''s words, the soldiers slowly calmed down and said in a high voice, "how can we stop bleeding? First, if you are injured by an arrow, please don''t pull it out immediately. Many bows and arrows have barbs. Once you pull out the blood, it is difficult for the immortal to cure."


    Many veterans immediately felt a lingering fear and suddenly nodded. They naturally knew the power of the bow and arrow. Once they were hit by a barbed bow and arrow, they would be miserable.


    "What if you don''t pull it out?" Chumo asks curiously. He has just joined the army. He doesn''t know this knowledge. A group of recruits also look curiously.


    A bearded Centurion said, "first break the feather arrow and leave the arrow in the meat. After the war, you can sift Pinellia ternata and Cayratia japonica and take it with wine. Within ten days, the arrow will come out."


    When the centurion finished, he lifted his coat and exposed a suddenly long finger wound to the people: "this is what I did four years ago when I attacked Turks in the north and was secretly attacked by Turk archers. I''m afraid I wouldn''t come back if my armor wasn''t hard enough."


    Mo Wu looked at the scar of the beard centurion, frowned and said, "you are really lucky to live. The person who treats your arrow wound is nonsense."


    As soon as he studied medicine, he was used to the precise medical means of the Mexican hospital. Seeing such a rough treatment method, he couldn''t help frowning.


    "Nonsense!"


    The officers and men were not surprised. They looked at Mo Wu incomprehensibly and contacted the beard. The centurion also looked angry.


    Mo Wu explained faintly, "if ten can survive according to the previous treatment, three or two are lucky, so you are said to be lucky! You are the one who survived."


    The beard Centurion turned white and said sadly, "there were indeed many brothers who died at that time."


    For a moment, many officers and men of the right back suddenly had a commotion, and their faces changed wildly. A fear of death filled the crowd.


    "But if you let the boy cure it, the boy is 100% sure to let you recover. Let alone the arrow falls off ten days later, you have recovered ten days later." Mo Wu said confidently.


    "Seriously?" a group of soldiers suddenly brightened their eyes. If they can be completely cured after being injured on the battlefield, wouldn''t it be an extra life.


    "Yes, as long as I pull out the arrow, stop the bleeding, wash the wound with liquor, and then sew the wound with the method of wound suture. Within ten days, you can naturally heal the wound." the more ink five is understated, the more stable the hearts of the soldiers are.


    "The wound was sewn. I know. Merton used this method at the beginning. He bought 500 injured horses and cured them all at once, but he made a lot of money." Wei Chi Baolin grinned.


    "Yes, that''s the way." Mo nodded.


    The legendary story of Merton buying injured horses has been well known for a long time, even in the military camp. Moreover, all the war horses in the military camp took the horseshoes, and the damage of war horses was greatly reduced. Naturally, everyone heard of it, and suddenly nodded when they heard it.


    "Second, if it''s a knife wound or a sword wound, if it''s a leg injury and you can''t let the blood flow, you should immediately tie the top of the wound with a cloth to reduce the bleeding of the wound as much as possible." Mo Wu demonstrated while explaining, picked up a cloth and tied it on his leg.


    "It must be fastened in this way to prevent further bleeding. However, if it can''t be treated in time, it takes a quarter of an hour to loosen the cloth, otherwise the muscle will be necrotic. If it is pierced for more than a day, it can only be cut off." Mo Wu made a gesture of raising and falling the knife one hand.


    "Isn''t that a disability?" the people suddenly said in their hearts.


    "It''s ok if you''re disabled. As long as you''re disabled, the Mexican hospital can press prosthetics and walk. In short, as long as you can live in front of the doctors in the Mexican hospital, we can save you." Mo Wu said proudly.


    "Good!"


    A group of soldiers suddenly said with an abnormal atmosphere.


    Everyone looked at Mo Wu''s expression and immediately there was no slightest contempt. Instead, they were extremely respectful. After all, there is no one who is not hurt in marching and fighting. Even if you offend anyone, you can''t offend the doctor!


    The same scene is very common in the six guards. For a moment, there was a great deal of noise in the six guards camp. For a while, the doctors in Mo hospital became the most popular people in the military camp.


    "Hard work, Mr. Mo Wu." seeing the end of Mo Wu, Li Jing came forward with a smile.


    "Grass people pay homage to General Li!" Mo Wu wiped his sweat and saluted quickly when he saw Li Jing.


    "Excuse me, Mr. Mo Wu is determined in one fell swoop. It''s too late for the general to be grateful. How could he receive Mr. Mo Wu''s great gift." Li Jing stepped forward and helped Mo Wu up.


    Mo Wu looked at the high spirited military camp and said, "trauma is easy to cure. If it''s internal injury, I''m afraid..."


    Under the existing conditions, if it is an internal injury, I''m afraid there are not many ways, only luck.


    Li Jing shook her head and said, "this matter has been reported to the general. The Mexican hospital has done enough."


    He and Cheng Yaojin have the same idea. Compared with the previous 30% cure rate, it is a miracle that the Mexican hospital can reach 90%, which is enough to stabilize the morale of the army.


    "In the future, Mr. Mo Wu will follow the right guard on his march. When he goes to camp, he will focus on explaining the knowledge of first aid to the right guard officers and soldiers, and be sure to teach it before arriving in Lanzhou." Li Jing said.


    This time, general Mo Wu''s explanation of first aid knowledge is just a spectator of 1000 soldiers. I''m afraid it will take at least ten days to popularize first aid knowledge to the whole right back.


    "Yes!" Mo Wu solemnly saluted.

 Chapter 525

    Chen Cang! Baoji, also known as Baoji in later generations, is a famous important town with incomparably high walls.


    It took the army three and a half days to reach Chencang from Chang''an city. Now Chencang has become a military important place. Starting first, Su dingfang has already hoarded a large amount of grain and built Chencang into a transit station for the army''s logistics.


    "The general has ordered that the whole army rest for half a day and start early tomorrow morning."


    After arriving at Chencang, Li Jing rarely showed kindness. He asked a group of soldiers to correct in Chencang for half a day and continue to set out early tomorrow morning.


    "Good!"


    "Thank you, general!" there were bursts of cheers from the army immediately. It was natural that the soldiers should not exert too much force when they first marched. Li Jing naturally knew this truth, so he ordered the repair.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton slipped slowly from the back of the Jedi shadow. As soon as he touched the ground, he couldn''t help sighing. He had been on his horse for three and a half days. Although he could ride a horse, his legs were sore for such a long time.


    "It''s good for you to get used to it. It''s just like riding a horse for a long time. When you arrive in Lanzhou, it''s estimated that you''ll get used to it and don''t have to suffer any more." Xue Rengui held Merton aside.


    Merton nodded. In fact, he could still take a carriage. However, since it was a March and war, and after Cheng Yaojin''s advice, Merton quickly put down the idea. At this time, he could be lazy, but if he really went to the battlefield, the enemy would not give him a chance to be lazy.


    Merton nodded and ordered, "repair on site."


    At this moment, there is no need to set up a stronghold. Soon, all tents have been installed. Chencang county magistrate has long received a military order and prepared food for the army in advance.


    Merton ate up the food in his hands in three or two. As soon as he put down his dishes and chopsticks, he heard the sound of horse hoofs approaching,


    A herald came quickly, dismounted and hugged his fist and said, "Lord sacrifice, General Li has an order. Please go to the Chinese army to discuss military affairs."


    "I''ll come now."


    Merton didn''t hesitate at the moment, and immediately turned over and mounted his horse to follow the messenger.


    Chencang County Yamen has already become Li Jing''s office. As for Chencang county magistrate, he must have his own place.


    "See you generals!" Merton entered Chencang County Yamen and found that Li Jing was already sitting in the main position, and the other generals of the five guards had arrived.


    "Ink offering wine is late!" Hou Junji said sarcastically when he saw Merton coming in.


    Merton said humbly: "the firearm supervisor is the palace army. He finally arrived in Chencang. At the moment, as soon as he received the general''s order, the boy came immediately without any delay."


    Cheng Yaojin said with a thick voice, "this is not a drumming point. Aren''t we just here?"


    His left leader guard walked in front of the firearm prison, but Merton took a quick step before he sat down.


    Li Jing waved his big hand and said, "this is just a routine military discussion. There are not so many rigid rules. However, if someone dares not to arrive in the future, don''t blame the general for being unkind."


    "Remember, boy." Merton said positively.


    Other generals also looked solemn. Li Jing''s words seemed to warn Merton again. In fact, they were beating them.


    Not to mention other generals, even Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin can''t help lowering their heads. This is the army. If they dare to disobey the military order, Li Jing will order them to be beheaded. Even if it comes to the court, even Li Shimin has nothing to say.


    "Well, let''s start the discussion." Li Jing said positively.


    Everyone else looked straight and sat upright.


    "There are 350 miles from Chang''an city to Chencang. Thanks to the convenience of brick road, the army has finished walking in only three and a half days. According to this calculation, we can reach Lanzhou in more than ten days." Li Jing said with a smile, which is an extremely difficult speed. The March is so smooth, which is why Li Jing has the confidence to order the repair.


    "I''ve traveled hundreds of miles a day. I''ve been in war all my life. I''ve never had such a fast marching speed." Cheng Yaojin smacked his tongue. Ordinary marching is not 70 or 80 miles at most, unless it''s a cavalry. Who has experienced the speed of traveling hundreds of miles a day.


    Other generals couldn''t help nodding. It was the baggage that dragged down the speed of the army in marching and fighting, and the brick road just solved this. In addition, even if it was windy and rainy, the brick road could still walk without error. This is the reason why Li Jing dared to guarantee to arrive in Lanzhou in more than ten days.


    The last time a large army marched on Turks in the north, it arrived at Jiuyuan county from Chang''an city. The army walked for a full month. During this period, it was snowy. Li Jing immediately abandoned his luggage, rode lightly and attacked with a strange move. It was only a narrow victory.


    Merton looked around innocently. Is it fast to travel hundreds of miles a day? From the perspective of future generations, traveling hundreds of miles a day is a turtle speed. He just can''t stand the speed of this era, which makes the Mohist school create a fast passenger transport business.


    Seeing Merton''s expression, Li Jing couldn''t help saying, "of course, this speed can''t match. General Su''s arrival in Lanzhou in three days can''t match the passenger transport from Chang''an to Luoyang in Mojia village."


    In an instant, everyone''s attention was focused on Merton. In the final analysis, Su dingfang''s brilliant performance in this western expedition was based on the rapid development of Mojia village, and even the creative use of the clever plan of transporting food and grass day and night. It can be imagined that as long as Su dingfang did not make mistakes in this western expedition, this alone is a great achievement, A logistics officer escorting grain and grass has made such contributions before the war. How can he not make the generals jealous.


    "The general''s praise is absurd. The boy just came up with an idea. The general''s real hard work and high achievement is to coordinate the whole army." Merton said shyly.


    "Don''t be modest in offering wine to mo. in the army, work is work, and it''s too much. No one can take your credit. Just relying on doctors to teach first aid in the army is a great skill." Li Jing looked at Mo Dun with satisfaction.


    The generals nodded with satisfaction. They were in a meeting at the moment, and the children of doctors in the army were constantly teaching the soldiers the method of first aid. In the future, fighting together will certainly save the lives of countless soldiers.


    Merton had an idea and said, "look at the boy, it''s inevitable to March and fight. Those who need medical treatment most. I don''t know if you can make a suggestion here."


    Li Jing laughed and said, "it''s rumored that Mohist''s plan is worth thousands of gold. We can''t wait for it."


    Merton said shyly, "boy wants to promote the cooperation between doctors and strategists."


    "Doctors and soldiers cooperate." the generals frowned.


    Cheng Yaojin said carelessly, "now doctors'' children fight with the army. Isn''t that the cooperation between doctors and soldiers?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "general Cheng''s words are reasonable, but they are only superficial cooperation. What the boy suggests is more in-depth cooperation between strategists and doctors."


    Li Jing immediately said curiously, "how do you say that?"


    Merton arched his hand and said, "I believe you have all seen the doctors in Merton hospital. Most of these doctors are ordinary people. They are weak. If they travel long distances, they may be difficult to follow. Moreover, the number is small. Once there are too many wounded, it may be difficult to be busy."


    Li Jing nodded slowly.


    "Boy, I heard that there are doctors in the army," Merton said.


    Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand and said, "don''t mention those rammed goods. Six or seven of the ten wounded soldiers have been cured. If I''m injured, I must be cured by the children of the doctor. Those rammed goods don''t want to get close to me."


    The generals also nodded with deep resentment. Obviously, they also have deep resentment against the doctors in the army, which is also the reason why the children of doctors are very popular in the army.


    Merton nodded: "that''s right. The boy advocates military medical cooperation. Since the ability of military doctors is low, why not select some literate good family children from the army and give them to doctors for training. The boy knows that in Quchi square, doctors are going to set up a medical school to train doctors'' children. Why don''t soldiers take advantage of this east wind to train their own medical soldiers."


    "Medic?" Li Jing and others were stunned when they heard this strange term.


    Merton explained: "medical soldiers are specialized in treating wounded soldiers. They fight with the army. They are doctors in peacetime, soldiers in wartime, and soldiers and doctors in one."


    "Integration of soldiers and doctors." the eyes of the people suddenly brightened. In this way, it will not only solve the low level of military doctors, but also treat the wounded as much as possible.


    "OK, that''s a wonderful plan." Cheng Yaojin patted his thigh. Although the children of doctors are good, they are not soldiers and will inevitably be difficult to use. If the military can train its own medical soldiers, wouldn''t it be the best of both worlds.


    "Well, I''ll write a memorial to your majesty and ask your majesty for the establishment of medical soldiers." Li Jingshuang said quickly. This time, when the children of doctors enter the army, the generals have seen the role of doctors in stabilizing the morale of the army and will not refuse.


    "It''s a pity that the medical school is just a scratch, but this western expedition can''t use such a clever plan." Duan Zhixuan sighed.


    Merton smiled and said, "that''s not necessarily true. Although the medical school is just a grass-roots creation, it''s naturally impossible to train medical soldiers now, but aren''t there a group of good doctors in the army now?"


    Li Jing said with a pause in his arm, "the meaning of ink offering wine is to let these doctors'' children help train a group of medical soldiers in the army."


    "Yes, now all the good doctors in the Mexican hospital for treating trauma are in the army. Why should the general give up close and seek far? If a good doctor teaches ten medical soldiers, hundreds of medical soldiers can be added in the army immediately. When the war is over, send these hundreds of medical soldiers to the Mexican hospital for training, and the team of medical soldiers has become." Merton said.


    When they heard the speech, they were immediately amazed. Li Jing sighed: "it''s said that the word of the MOH family is worth thousands of gold. In my opinion, it''s not empty at all. Mohou''s plan will certainly enable thousands of soldiers to survive. I thank mohou for thousands of generals."


    Merton hurriedly said, "General Li flattered me. Now the firearm supervisor also belongs to the strategist. Since the boy has joined the strategist, he naturally considers it wholeheartedly."


    Suddenly, all the generals looked at Merton more softly. Even Hou Junji had to admit that Merton''s plan was ten times better than recruiting doctors'' children into the army.


    The people discussed for a while and arranged the affairs among the generals before they dispersed.

 Chapter 526

    The next day, just before dawn, the army that repaired the night officially set out, still moving forward at the speed of hundreds of miles a day. Soon, the army was getting closer and closer to Lanzhou city.


    However, just as the army was advancing rapidly, god suddenly did not do beauty.


    "Boom!"


    A thunder sounded, accompanied by dense raindrops.


    "Worship Lord! It''s raining." Xue Rengui immediately looked flustered and drove his horse to come.


    Merton also looked embarrassed. Looking up at the dark clouds all over the sky, he immediately frowned. Naturally, he knew that the biggest disadvantage of gunpowder now was damp.


    Although he has wrapped the carriage transporting gunpowder tightly, and there is no problem if he is exposed to the rain for a short time, if he is exposed to the rain for a long time, I''m afraid it will have an impact on the effect of gunpowder.


    "The general has an order! The whole army continues to move forward!" at this moment, a messenger came quickly and sent an order from the former army.


    Xue Rengui''s face was embarrassed and said, "what about the wine offering adult?"


    On the one hand, it was a military order, on the other hand, it was the safety of gunpowder. Xue Rengui immediately fell into a dilemma.


    Merton naturally knows the reason for Li Jing''s order. At the moment, the army is walking on brick roads. Even if the heavy rain is still not a big problem for the March, however, although the firearms supervisor can march like this, gunpowder may not be able to stand it.


    Merton gritted his teeth and said, "the doctors and Mohists went with the army, and the firearm prison camped on the spot to protect the gunpowder."


    Xue Rengui was surprised and said with worry: "but General Li''s order..."


    Merton shook his head and said, "you just set up camp. I''ll go to the Chinese army and report to General Li immediately."


    Xue Rengui wanted to persuade again, but as soon as Merton finished, he immediately turned over and mounted his horse and urged Jue Ying to run in the direction of the Chinese army.


    Looking at Merton''s leaving figure, Xue Rengui watched the rain getting heavier and heavier. He gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted: "the firearms supervisor immediately set up camp on the spot, drive all the carriages into the army account, and make sure that the gunpowder is dry."


    Immediately, the motorcade of the firearm supervisor separated from the large army and stopped slowly. The motorcade of Mohist and medical experts passed the firearm supervisor and continued to move forward. At the moment, the rear army was empty, and the firearm supervisor began to camp directly on the brick road.


    Some officers and men of the left leader guard saw this situation and were in an uproar. Just now, the central army just sent an order to move forward. However, the firearms supervisor openly resisted the order in the next step.


    "There''s a good play now." a group of soldiers couldn''t help looking at the fire monitor with joking eyes. As veterans in the army, they knew the consequences of disobedience and disrespect.


    Cheng Yaojin naturally saw this scene. He couldn''t help looking at Merton''s galloping figure and immediately got up to keep up. If Li Jing really didn''t show mercy, he could ask for mercy.


    In the middle of the Chinese army, Li Jing wiped the rain. Even if he was over sixty, he still rode directly in the rain like an ordinary soldier.


    "Brick road is really extraordinary."


    Li Jing saw that even if the rain was not small, the army still walked freely on the brick road, and nodded with satisfaction. In the past, when marching, if it was rainy, it would take at least a few days. If it was an urgent military order, even if it was marching in the rain, it would be only thirty or forty miles a day. Most of the luggage was deeply trapped in the mud, which was pushed out by the people little by little. One can imagine the difficulties.


    "I''m afraid this is the easiest march in my life." Li Jing said with emotion in the heavy rain.


    "General, please return to the carriage to take shelter from the rain." the soldiers on one side advised that the four-wheel carriage of the Mohist school can naturally shelter from the wind and rain. Naturally, there are many such four-wheel carriages, and the dress is very comfortable. As a place to rest at night, not only Li Jing, but also almost other generals.


    Li Jing shook her head and said, "no, the soldiers are in the rain. How can this general be an exception."


    "The general sets an example for us." the soldier sighed, which is the style of a generation of military God.


    Suddenly, in the rear army, a fast horse came, a herald turned over and dismounted and reported: "I inform the general that the firearms supervisor stopped moving and camped on the spot."


    In an instant, Li Jing turned around and looked at the direction of the rear army, just in time to see Merton''s figure riding the Jue Ying coming.


    "General, the firearms warden has something important to report." Merton flew off his horse and saluted Merton.


    Li Jing said coldly, "I just want to hear the reason why your firearm supervisor stopped marching without permission."


    At the moment, Cheng Yaojin and other generals who heard the news also came one after another. They looked at Merton quietly one by one. They could not imagine how the firearms supervisor dared to disobey orders without permission.


    "It''s really a young man''s spoiled body. He can''t even stand marching in the rain." many generals looked at Merton with disdainful eyes.


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "it''s not that the firearm officers and men are afraid of the rain, but that the gunpowder carried by the firearm can''t meet the water. Once the firearm is damp, I''m afraid it will be unusable."


    "You mean the biggest disadvantage of gunpowder that can destroy the city wall is water!" Li Jing frowned.


    Merton explained: "the great power of firearms is caused by the burning and explosion of gunpowder. Once the gunpowder is wet and cannot be ignited, it is useless at all."


    "I see." Li Jing naturally knew that water and fire were incompatible, so she relaxed her eyes to Merton.


    "According to you, the firearm prison can''t march in rainy days?" Li Jing frowned.


    Merton explained: "it''s not that you can''t March. The carriages of the firearm supervisor have been closed and wrapped with tarpaulin. It''s natural that it will rain in a short time. If you''re caught in the rain for a long time, the boy can''t guarantee."


    Li Jing thought about it secretly, but he saw a group of generals coming at the news and said, "how do you look at this matter?"


    Hou Junji sneered: "no matter what the reason, disobedience is disobedience."


    Cheng Yaojin retorted loudly, "you can''t say that. Gunpowder is the key to conquering the third fort of Tuyuhun. If gunpowder is lost, I''m afraid our army will lose many soldiers. Besides, the firearms supervisor is not unable to March, but who will bear the crime of risking marching and causing gunpowder dampness."


    Hou Junji suddenly became angry.


    "The firearm prison is directly under the jurisdiction of your majesty and a new type of arms. It''s better to preserve gunpowder." Duan Zhixuan said. No one wants to have a little loss for the risk of that kind of powerful weapon.


    Li Jing nodded and looked at Merton and said, "since there are special circumstances in the firearms prison, the general is not unable to accommodate. It is still four days away from Lanzhou. If the firearms prison cannot arrive when the general arrives in Lanzhou, it will be punished according to the missing period of the firearms prison."


    "Thank you for your understanding, general! I promise I will arrive in Lanzhou within four days," Morton promised.


    I can''t help but rejoice. Fortunately, Li Jing is reasonable. Otherwise, the firearms supervisor will advance in the rain and arrive in Lanzhou. He really can''t guarantee how much can be used. He doesn''t have much confidence in the moisture-proof technology of this era.


    Seeing the army moving away, tents were set up one by one on the brick road, all the carriages carrying gunpowder were placed in the tents, and hundreds of riding soldiers were drenched in the rain and patrolled around.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "all the horses are divided into three groups and go to rest in batches. We should not only ensure the dryness of the gunpowder, but also ensure the safety of the gunpowder."


    "Yes!" there are hundreds of cavalry officers and soldiers. They are the elite of the army. Naturally, they don''t have to order any more. They are arranged immediately.


    "Worship Lord! If the rain doesn''t stop and we''ve been left behind for so long, can we reach Lanzhou City in four days?" Xue Rengui worried.


    Merton said, "then it''s time to ask general Su for help."


    He didn''t expect that he had mentioned the plan of transferring grain in Su Ding Fang, and he didn''t expect to use it so quickly.


    "But just in case..." Xue Rengui was worried. It was a great crime to lose time! If you are not careful, you will be doomed!


    Merton said proudly, "don''t worry. I think I made a toast in those years, but I don''t know how many arithmetic problems my brother walked in front and my brother chased behind. I promise I won''t make mistakes."

 Chapter 527

    It rained continuously for three days. On the third day, the rain stopped.


    "Wine worship Lord!" Xue Rengui only felt cold. The firearm supervisor had stopped here for three days. Now I''m afraid the army is approaching Lanzhou city! "


    Other officers and men are also hundreds of cavalry officers and men. They can''t help being restless. If they hadn''t seen Merton as stable as Mount Tai, they would have been unable to sit still.


    Merton looked at the gradually clear sky and couldn''t wait to say, "hurry up."


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui immediately received an amnesty and hurriedly asked hundreds of riding soldiers to put on their carriages and dismantle the camp.


    "Send it out immediately and leave the camp here. Naturally, someone will help us close it. There will be a new camp in Lanzhou." Merton saw that the soldiers began to close the camp and stopped it immediately. This is not the time to care about these small things.


    Hearing the speech, the soldiers immediately put down their items and immediately turned over and mounted their horses.


    "Drive!"


    The firearm supervisor''s convoy set out immediately.


    The firearm supervisor had just left, and the officers and men arranged by Su dingfang had already been waiting there. They immediately went forward to dismantle the camp, loaded the carriage, and then set out.


    At the moment, the firearms supervisor is either a cavalry or a carriage. The whole army is very fast. In less than an hour, it has walked 50 miles.


    "General, the chariots and horses can''t hold up." Xue Rengui said with worry when he saw that the chariots and horses have been tired and the marching speed has decreased a lot.


    Merton took a breath, took out the map from his arms, looked at it and said, "don''t worry, move on, there is support ahead."


    Sure enough, just a few miles ahead, the firearms prison saw a huge concentration of civilian men.


    "Mohou! General Su ordered us to wait here." just as the firearm supervisor approached, a school captain reported.


    "There''s general lausu," Merton asked, looking at the captain with a sigh of relief. "Are the horses I want ready?"


    The captain nodded and said, "don''t worry, Mo Hou. A total of 100 good horses have been repaired for more than three hours."


    Merton immediately waved his hand and said, "put on all new horses and start immediately after trimming for a quarter of an hour."


    A quarter of an hour later, the firearm supervisor set off again. Although these horses were not as good as hundreds of war horses, they had enough rest. Immediately, the marching speed of the firearm supervisor increased again, and immediately flew west towards the straight brick road and the last ray of sunshine of the sunset.


    "It''s getting dark!" Xue Rengui looked at the setting sun in the west, and his heart sank.


    As the last ray of sunlight was blocked, the whole earth fell into darkness and stars appeared in the sky.


    "Lord sacrifice, it''s the end of the month today. There''s no moonlight at all. You can''t go at all." Xue Rengui hurried his horse to Merton.


    If it is a full moon, they can still take advantage of the moonlight to go. Now their eyes are black, how can they go.


    "Light the lantern!" Merton said, gritting his teeth.


    Xue Rengui was surprised and said, "don''t sacrifice wine. It''s full of gunpowder. If you accidentally get out of the water, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    I don''t know whether the power of gunpowder has restrained hundreds of horses, or the fire prevention awareness of the firearm supervisor is really good. Now the firearm supervisor has a feeling that the fire has changed.


    Merton gritted his teeth and said, "first light up the lanterns of this wine offering carriage and open the way ahead. Each carriage is ten steps away. In front of each carriage, there is a hundred riding soldiers holding lanterns to guide the carriage. Every other hour, a group of soldiers will rotate to this wine offering carriage to rest."


    Xue Rengui reluctantly nodded. Up to now, it''s the only way.


    "Hoo!"


    A lantern ignited, and then the whole team formed a long dragon of lanterns. Taking advantage of the weak light of lanterns and the new rotation of horses were used to driving at night, the firearms supervisor was able to move forward again, but the speed was much slower.


    There was nothing to say all night except the sound of cars and horses.


    At dawn, the western expedition army had already begun to bury the pot for cooking. With the help of his own soldiers, Li Jing put on his armor and inspected the whole camp.


    The heavy rain did not stop the pace of the western expedition army. With the convenience of brick roads, the army still maintained the speed of traveling hundreds of miles a day. According to this speed, the western expedition army can reach Lanzhou this evening at most.


    "Where is the firearm supervisor now?" Li Jing asked.


    "I inform you, general. According to the report from the spy horse last night, the firearm supervisor just set out yesterday when the rain stopped." a soldier asked.


    "Just started!" Li Jing''s face sank. If Merton really lost his time, it would be difficult. The army doesn''t care so many reasons. If only he lost his time and was on time, there are not so many excuses.


    "General! Do you want to wait for the firearm supervisor!" the soldier hesitated. When the firearm supervisor was in the Xishan Valley, he didn''t send less meat to the right guard. The soldiers of the right guard had a good impression of the firearm supervisor.


    Li Jing shook her head and said, "a military order is a military order. You can''t delay it for a moment. Pass the order on. The whole army will start immediately after eating in a quarter of an hour."


    "Yes!" the soldier answered, and immediately turned to give orders.


    When the news that the whole army started again spread throughout the army, many people with intentions immediately burst into an uproar.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at each other and became worried. Naturally, they knew that the heavy rain had just stopped. In this way, it would be difficult for the firearms supervisor to catch up with the western expedition.


    "Master Qin, my master..." Mo Wuyi said anxiously to Qin Huaiyu.


    Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "don''t worry, brother Mo will arrive on time when he has let us down."


    "No hair on the mouth, no firm work!" Hou Junji sneered when he heard the order of the army to continue to set out. He was not surprised by the order. Li Jing was a Veteran General in the army. Naturally, he knew how to do it. How could he delay the whole army''s journey because of a Mohist.


    "Either the firearm prison is out of date, or the firearm prison starts out in the rain. At that time, the gunpowder fails, and you Mozi can''t escape the relationship." Hou Junji snorted coldly. At the same time, he secretly kept in mind that the rain is the enemy of gunpowder.


    The western expedition army continued to move forward. Cheng Yaojin walked to the last side of the left leading guard. He couldn''t help looking back all the way, but he still couldn''t see the shadow of the firearm supervisor.


    "Where is the army?" Cheng Yaojin asked.


    The soldier company on one side hurriedly said, "go back to general, there are ten miles to Lanzhou city."


    "Ten miles!" Cheng Yaojin''s heart sank and he couldn''t help sighing. It seems that Merton has already committed the crime of missing the deadline when he first went to war. Even if he narrowly escaped Li Jing, his career will be ruined.


    Cheng Yaojin shakes his head and suddenly sweeps the rest of the light. He sees a long carriage team on the brick road behind him. In front of the team, the red armor is unforgettable.


    "I''ve caught up!" Cheng Yaojin rubbed his eyes in disbelief. After reconfirmation, he suddenly shouted: "hurry, report to the Chinese Army immediately. The firearms supervisor has caught up as promised."


    "Yes!" Cheng Yaojin''s soldiers immediately galloped away.


    After a while, the news that the firearm supervisor caught up spread throughout the western expedition army. Suddenly, there were bursts of cheers from the whole army. They felt proud of the legendary experience that the firearm supervisor was still able to catch up after a three-day pause.


    In the firearm prison, Merton was riding a slow horse. His shadow had long been handed over to the soldiers of Su dingfang in the rear. Seeing the team of Mohist children in front, he was elated and said proudly: "there were so many arithmetic problems in this wine offering year. It was in vain."

 Chapter 528

    "See the general!"


    At the foot of Lanzhou City, Su dingfang and other generals who took the lead had already waited at the gate of the city. Seeing Li Jing leading a large army, they quickly reported to the police.


    "No gift!"


    Seeing the tall Lanzhou city wall, Li Jing nodded with satisfaction. The Lanzhou city wall is high, the city is thick, and there is plenty of food and grass. It is the bridgehead for the imperial army to attack Tuyuhun in the future. It can be said that it is the top priority.


    Lanzhou has long become an important military town, with huge granaries and military barracks.


    "All the officers and men of the six guards enter the city to repair, and no one is allowed to disturb the people." Li Jing ordered.


    "Yes!" a messenger went down immediately.


    In addition to the 70000 troops brought by Li Jing, coupled with the elite transferred from the local government, more than 100000 people gathered in Lanzhou city. In addition, the indigenous people in the city all entered the city, and the whole Lanzhou city was immediately crowded.


    Merton led the firearm supervisor into Lanzhou city. Seeing Su dingfang waiting at the gate of the city, he couldn''t help boxing gratefully: "thank you for your help, brother su. I''m very grateful."


    If it were not for Su dingfang''s tireless support, Merton was three days behind and wanted to catch up with the army, it would be impossible.


    "Brother Mo is polite. Brother Mo still gives advice on the strategy of grain transportation. Now Brother Mo borrows it once. It''s nothing to mention such trifles." Su dingfang said brightly.


    Su dingfang raised his face greatly in front of the imperial court for the delivery of military grain this time. Naturally, he was very grateful to Merton.


    "Brother Mo, please! The imperial court has long issued a secret order. The firearm prison is an important weapon in the army. I have found a good place for brother Mo in the city." Su dingfang said kindly.


    Merton nodded knowingly and marched into Lanzhou City under the leadership of the soldiers arranged by Su dingfang.


    Walking on the brand-new brick road just laid in Lanzhou City, Merton couldn''t help but look curiously at this famous western central city in the future. The importance of Lanzhou began to appear in the Tang Dynasty. Most of the transactions between mainland businessmen in the Tang Dynasty and all ethnic groups in the western regions are concentrated in Lanzhou city. Although the army is under martial law and there are no pedestrians on the street, there are many shops on both sides of the street, You can see the prosperity of Lanzhou.


    But now the war will begin, and almost all commercial activities have stopped.


    The firearm supervisors came to the residence arranged by Su dingfang. Su dingfang really bothered. The firearm supervisor was assigned a large warehouse with several houses nearby, just enough for the firearm supervisors to live.


    "At last, there is a place to store gunpowder." Merton looked at the warehouse with satisfaction. The firearm supervisor was not only lighting gunpowder, but also a steady stream of gunpowder. The warehouse was just enough.


    Merton, who had been driving all day and night, was already exhausted. He simply arranged for the firearm officers to camp and immediately fell asleep with his clothes.


    As soon as Merton slept until dawn, he suddenly heard the sound of drums, thunder, a sudden shock and suddenly rose.


    "Is this?" Murton hesitated.


    The door suddenly opened, and Xue Rengui, who was full of armour and stomach, said in a loud voice, "Lord sacrifice, this is the drum! Please go to the Chinese army tent quickly."


    It is the most solemn thing in the army to light the drum. There are three links. If the three links fail, the chief General will execute the late general on the spot, and no one dares to say anything?


    Of course, the point will drum is not inhumane. Every pass will sound for enough time, and the Lord will have war horses. If you can''t catch up with the horse, it can only show how domineering the late general is and didn''t pay attention to the Lord.


    Merton just didn''t understand his armor. Without hesitation, he immediately followed Xue Rengui out of the barracks, stepped on a good horse and went towards the Chinese Army''s big account. The place arranged by Su dingfang was very convenient. As soon as the first pass point will stop, Merton had entered the Chinese Army''s big account.


    "See you, general!" Merton raised the Chinese Army''s big account and saluted Li Jing.


    "No gift!" Li Jing nodded with satisfaction when he saw Merton open the military account.


    "Thank you, general!" Merton Yu Guang swept away and saw that he was not the first to arrive. Hou Junji, Cheng Yaojin and other 16 guard generals had arrived, but there were still many positions in the Chinese Army''s big tent. Obviously, there were generals who had not arrived. He found a position in the most corner and stood there waiting.


    When the second pass point stopped the drum, Su dingfang hurried and stood in front of Merton.


    Soon, the drum of the third pass point will ring, and two rough, crazy and tall generals will come in a hurry.


    "Gao Zhensheng, see General Li!"


    "Li daoyan, see General Li!"


    When Merton heard the two men''s report, he suddenly realized that Gao Zhensheng was an old minister of Li Shimin''s Qin palace and was deeply trusted by Li Shimin, and Li daoyan was the son of Li daoyan, the king of Huainan, and the son of the imperial clan.


    They didn''t arrive until the three-way point was about to drum. Obviously, they were a little arrogant.


    Li Jing didn''t answer, but looked at them calmly. They suddenly regretted why they didn''t come quickly. You know, they are facing the famous military God of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, they can be easily ignored.


    Li Jing said slowly: "on the battlefield, the fighter plane is fleeting. If there is a slight neglect, it will harm people for the time being. If you delay the army, how to explain to your soldiers, how to explain to your majesty, and how to explain to the people all over the world."


    When they heard the speech, they broke into a cold sweat and apologized again and again, but they were more and more dissatisfied.


    However, they did not violate the military order. Li Jing did not care, but said faintly: "get up! Since everyone has arrived, the military discussion will begin!


    They were relieved and stood on one side bitterly.


    Li Jing slowly glanced at the generals and shouted: "The western expedition is of great importance. If the Tang Dynasty wins, it can continue to frighten all parts of the northwest. Everyone knows that the northwest is very dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty''s elimination of the East Turks. They think that the Tang Dynasty is taking advantage of the danger of others and making a sneak attack. The western expedition is a good opportunity to prove the national strength of the Tang Dynasty. We only need to win and not lose this war, otherwise, let alone our general''s ruthlessness, that is to arrive at the imperial court There is no turning point. "


    Everyone was awestruck. They naturally knew that Li Jing did not exaggerate. The reason for the western expedition was that Tuyuhun repeatedly violated the border, and the king asked the king to marry Princess Changle directly, but they completely angered Li Shimin. They spent countless money and built a 1500 mile brick road. They spent so much effort. If they were defeated, they would all bear Li Shimin''s responsibility Anger.


    "The end will understand!" all the generals shouted in unison. Even Gao Zhengsheng and Li daoyan couldn''t help shaking their hearts. All their glory came from Li Shimin. They had a chance to offend Li Jing. If they angered Li Shimin, I''m afraid no one could save them.


    Seeing the performance of the generals, Li Jing nodded with satisfaction. Even if some generals were not satisfied, at least no one would hold back until they won Tuyuhun.


    Li Jing nodded slowly, pointed to a huge Tuyuhun map behind him, threw it to the ground and said in a voice: "the purpose of this war is Murong Fuyun! Life wants to see people, death wants to see corpses."

 Chapter 529

    King Tuyuhun, Murong Fuyun!


    Murong Fuyun is a hero who has experienced the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It''s not so easy to deal with. However, if you want to return with Murong Fuyun, you must defeat Tuyuhun''s army.


    "Well, since you are all grasshoppers on the same line, let''s talk about how to defeat Tuyuhun." Li Jing looked at the generals and asked.


    Qixin He Li proudly stepped out and said, "tell the general, although Tuyuhun''s cavalry is strong, it''s not worth mentioning compared with my Turkic cavalry. My Turkic departments have gathered 50000 elite cavalry to help Tian Khan."


    Qixin Heli is a tribe of Turks returning to the Tang Dynasty. Now the Tang Dynasty sends troops. Naturally, it is time for them to work.


    "Although the cavalry is strong, we have added a new weapon to the infantry of the Tang Dynasty, which will surely make Murong Fuyun come back." Cheng Yaojin was also full of confidence. He was full of confidence in the new divine arm crossbow.


    Other generals echoed one after another and asked for war again and again.


    Li Jing shook her head secretly. Although Datang was strong in this war, Tuyuhun''s troops were dominant and the land was favorable. Datang did not actually have an advantage.


    Li Jing''s eyes turned. Seeing Merton in the corner, she couldn''t help but ask, "ink sacrifice wine. I don''t know what you think."


    Everyone immediately focused on Merton''s side. Everyone in the hall knew that Merton often made amazing remarks and couldn''t help looking forward to Merton.


    Merton pondered: "War is meaningless. I heard that Tuyuhun is not monolithic. Fu Yun dotes on King Tianzhu and collects money recklessly. Many Qiang tribes are dissatisfied with Fu Yun. If the army can get the support of these Qiang tribes and take Qiang as a guide, it can not only supply food and grass for the army, but also increase the strength of the army. On the contrary, if Tuyuhun gets the support of these tribes, I''m afraid the opposite will be bad for Datang. "


    "Vertical and horizontal!" the generals'' eyes lit up. Datang went deep into foreign wars. The long supply line alone was enough to bring down the army.


    Merton''s proposal was very agreed by everyone, but Li daoyan and Gao Zhengsheng disagreed and said, "I have millions of powerful soldiers in the Tang Dynasty. If those Dangxiang Qiang tribes dare to disobey, they can be destroyed together."


    Merton shook his head and said, "two generals, Miao ye, although we don''t fear these small tribes, our purpose of sending troops this time is to Tuyuhun. This can not only increase our strength, but also weaken Tuyuhun''s strength. Why not?"


    Many generals nodded one after another. If they could win easily, who would like to make trouble?


    Li Jing nodded slowly and said, "it''s reasonable to say that Mo sacrificing wine. Although I don''t fear these tribes, I can''t help it. Someone sent messengers to the Qiang tribes at the handover of the two countries and told them that in seven days, I invited Tang to visit the third fort of Tuyuhun."


    Tuyuhun three Fort Tuyuhun in order to rob the bridgehead of the Tang Dynasty, the terrain is dangerous. If you want to attack Tuyuhun, you must first pull out the Tuyuhun three fort. Li Jing invited them to visit the Tuyuhun three fort. Obviously, he directly told him that the Tang army will be able to break the Tuyuhun three fort in seven days.


    "Yes!" a soldier immediately took command.


    Li Jing suddenly rose up and suddenly shouted, "seven days later, our army will go to war! The troops will go to Tuyuhun three fort."


    "Order!" the generals shouted in unison.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The sky is vast, the wind blows the grass and sees cattle and sheep. Although this Chile song describes the prosperity of grassland at the foot of Yinshan Mountain, it is also not inconsistent to describe Qinghai grassland.


    Around Qinghai Lake, the grass grows and the warblers fly. Among the grass that can reach the waist, a gust of wind blows. If the snow-white sheep are hidden, not far away, a large number of cattle are eating the grass happily.


    However, a Tuyuhun messenger came in a hurry on the majestic Qinghai River, breaking the tranquility.


    Qinghai pangolin went straight to a large tribe not far away and stopped in front of the most brilliant tooth tent in the center of the tribe.


    "Tell Khan that the 200000 Tang troops led by Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty have gathered in Lanzhou." Tuyuhun messenger bowed his head in front of the throne of the dental tent. The relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tuyuhun had long been broken. The Tang dynasty built brick roads on a large scale, and the news that the troops gathered in Lanzhou naturally could not be concealed from Tuyuhun.


    On the throne, the old king Tuyuhun''s turbid eyes suddenly flashed. Tuyuhun has repeatedly committed crimes for more than a year or two. Which time is not the thunder and the heavy rain is small. Fuyun never thought that Datang would really send troops this time, and Li Jing, the famous military God of Datang, sent troops himself.


    "Li Jing!" in the king''s tent, a group of Tuyuhun ministers were shocked.


    For all parts of the grassland, Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty was an existence that made children cry. I think how proud Jieli Khan was and how powerful Turks were, but he was finally defeated in Li Jing''s hands.


    "Nonsense, how can Datang have so many troops." a burly man under the stage scolded, who was Fu Yun''s favorite minister, King Tianzhu.


    The messenger replied, "inform King Tianzhu. According to the secret agent, a large number of Turkic cavalry went south to help the Tang Dynasty."


    Tuyuhun is close to the land of longzuo. Most of the local Qiang tribes are wavering between the Tang Dynasty and Tuyuhun. Tuyuhun has long trained many spies along the line. With the help of these people, Tuyuhun has repeatedly avoided the main force of the Tang army and looted the land of longzuo.


    "Turkic cavalry!" everyone was shocked. It was the cavalry who dominated the grassland in those days. Even Tuyuhun had to bow down and become a minister.


    "It''s so hateful that Turks dare to betray the grassland God and help Datang." the king''s face changed.


    Fu Yunleng said in a voice: "what about the Turkic cavalry? At this time, it is not the era of Jieli Khan, that is, the Turkic cavalry came to Tuyuhun and let it go."


    "My father must not. The population of Datang is 100 times better than Tuyuhun, and the military strength is 10 times better than Tuyuhun. With the help of Turkic cavalry, Tuyuhun has no chance of winning. I am willing to go to Datang personally for my father and ask for a truce in Datang, so that the two countries will be friends forever." a man in his thirties suddenly stepped out and worshipped.


    "Murong Shun, do you know what you''re talking about?" Fu Yun saw the man''s face in front of him and couldn''t help but show a trace of disgust.


    This person is Murong Shun, the son of Fuyun and Princess Guanghua of the Sui Dynasty. Although Murong Shun''s dress is no different from that of the Tugu Hun people, his face is similar to that of Princess Honghua. He has obvious Han characteristics and appears very different among the Tugu Hun people.


    The whole Tuyuhun knew that voyun was very hostile to the Han people. Although voyun married the Guanghua Princess of the Sui Dynasty, this political marriage was a complete disgrace. Yang Guang, the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, took the opportunity to break through Tuyuhun and set up four counties in Qinghai. Voyun fled in a hurry like a lost dog.


    Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The chaos in the late Sui Dynasty and the war in the Central Plains continued. Fu Yun seized the opportunity to recapture all the land of Qinghai again.


    Even if Li Yuan later sent Murong Shun, who was a hostage in the Tang Dynasty, back to Tuyuhun in order to win a letter, but when Murong Shun came back, he found that his original crown prince was abolished by Fu Yun, who was hostile to the Han people. From the former crown prince, he became his brother. He was not only excluded by the new crown prince, but also ignored by Fu Yun, who was hostile to the Han people. This oppression lasted for 15 years.


    "Father, if you insist on your own way, Tuyuhun will be in danger." Murong Shun admonished regardless of Fuyun''s anger.


    "Bold, I Tuyuhun''s three hundred thousand string controllers, with the help of the grassland God. If I hadn''t been my father''s credulous trust in the tyrant Yang Guang, how could I have been taken advantage of by the Han people." Fu Yun said stubbornly on his face.


    The Tianzhu King sneered: "Prince Shun is worried too much, not to mention Li Shimin. Even Yang Guangfu is not afraid of Tuyuhun. I''m not talking big. Now the Tang Dynasty is far worse than the Sui Dynasty!"


    King Tianzhu sneered in his heart. Fuyun Khan hated the Han people most. How can he bow his head like the Han people? Murong Shun''s ignorance of phase can only humiliate himself.


    Sure enough, Fu Yun''s face was cold and said, "since the Tang Dynasty came, Ben Khan will let the Han people have no return. Someone will blow the Golden Horn and gather the soldiers of all ethnic groups in Tuyuhun. Ben Khan wants the Han people to know the strength of Tuyuhun."


    "Yes!" the messenger immediately took his orders.


    Tianzhu Wang''s eyes turned and said, "I inform Khan that the Tang army has violated the overall situation. It seems that it is for Tuyuhun. In fact, it doesn''t want to be similar to the old story of Yang Guang."


    Fu Yun suddenly said, "you mean controlling the western regions?"


    "Yes, I heard that there is an MO family in the Tang Dynasty who offered a reward for thousands of gold to obtain endless seeds and knowledge from the west of the western regions. He made good use of exotic unique skills and earned countless treasures in just one year." the king of Tianzhu exclaimed.


    "Mojiazi!" Murong Shun secretly remembered the name in his heart.


    "Still have this matter." Fu Yun surprised.


    The king of Tianzhu nodded and said, "yes, for example, diamond is extremely hard, and the world''s most ingenious craftsmen can''t carve it, but it has become the most dazzling treasure in the hands of Mohist, worth thousands of gold."


    The king of Tianzhu said, took out a brocade box from his arms, stretched out his hand to open it, and suddenly a bright diamond appeared in front of the ministers.


    "The minister specially spent the sky price to find one for his majesty." the king of Tianzhu flattered and presented the diamond to Fu Yun.


    Many ministers looked at the king of Tianzhu with disdain. Indeed, they are worthy of being the favorite Minister of Fuyun. They are the best to please Fuyun.


    "It''s really a rare treasure!" even if Fu Yun has seen countless treasures, he can''t help indulging in them.


    The king of Tianzhu was secretly proud. For this diamond, he bought it with 300 good horses. I don''t know which black hearted merchant he got cheap.


    Fu Yun is worthy of being an owl. He only indulged for a moment. At the moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "immediately give this treasure to Tuoba chici of Dangxiang tribe and tell him that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold. If Tuyuhun fails, his Dangxiang is the next Tuyuhun."


    Since Turks helped Tang Dynasty, he had to find another helper. Tuoba chici was the largest tribal leader at the junction of the two countries. He had always been intermarried with Tuyuhun and was Tuyuhun''s loyal ally.


    In fact, it''s not just that the Tang Dynasty will be horizontal, but how can Tuyuhun not be vertical. However, what he doesn''t know is that Tuyuhun will not only make ideas about Dangxiang and Qiang tribes, but also focus on these wall grass.

 Chapter 530

    "Toot!"


    A huge golden horn sounded.


    All the herdsmen were stunned, put down their work, went back to the camp, picked up a long bow, wore a machete, turned over and rode on a war horse, and immediately went towards the king''s tent.


    Everyone knows that the war will begin as soon as the horn rings.


    Murong Shun returned to his camp with a disheartened face in front of the ridiculed faces of the people. Even though he had returned to Tuyuhun for 15 years, he still didn''t adapt to this kind of sky like tent and often missed the spacious and bright houses in Chang''an city.


    When I opened the tent, I saw a gentle and luxurious woman of about 50 sitting in the middle. This person was the Guanghua Princess of the previous dynasty. Even in an ordinary tent, it is difficult to hide his noble spirit.


    "See your mother!" Murong Shun bowed.


    Princess Guanghua looked at Murong Shun and asked solemnly, "did you say what I asked you to say in front of all the ministers?"


    Murong Shun nodded, puzzled and said, "tell the mother that the child has said it intact, but why does the mother want to do so? You know the father''s temper, which can only make him hate the child more."


    Princess Guanghua looked. Murong Shun still didn''t understand it. She was a little disappointed and said, "because these words are not for Fu Yun at all, but for the ministers."


    Murong Shun was puzzled and said, "please give me some advice."


    "Since the Central Plains can defeat Tuyuhun once, it can defeat Tuyuhun a second time. After Tuyuhun''s defeat, people will naturally think of your words today." Princess Guanghua said coldly.


    Murong Shun was startled and said, "empress mother, what do you mean..."


    As the former crown prince of Tuyuhun, murongshun did not have the idea of competing for that position, but because of his origin, he had no foundation in Tuyuhun, even if he had a heart, he was powerless. At the moment, Princess Guanghua''s words made him ready to move again.


    Princess Guanghua looked at Murong Shun coldly and said, "even if Datang finally defeated Tuyuhun, it also needs to support a new king in Tuyuhun. This is your last chance and your only chance. You can do nothing. Everything has nothing to do with you."


    Murongshun''s heart was shocked. Suddenly, the more than ten years of suffocation immediately rushed to his heart. At that time, he suddenly raised his blood red eyes and said, "thank you, empress mother. My child knows how to do it."


    Princess Guanghua looked at Murong solemnly and said, "remember, you only have one chance."


    This time, she didn''t want to help Datang. On the contrary, she resented Yang Guang''s pushing him into the fire pit. She did so for her son. As people of the royal family, they were naturally sensitive to these legitimate things. Even if it was one in ten thousand, they would be willing to break their bones.


    Before, they didn''t move at all because they didn''t have a chance. Now, Princess Tuyuhun Guanghua of the western expedition of the Tang Dynasty is keenly aware of Murong Shun''s opportunity.


    Murong Shun nodded fiercely, opened the tent and left.


    At the same time, another invisible war is also going on quietly.


    Dangxiang tribe is a branch of the Western Qiang people and the land of longzuo. In addition to the largest tribe in Tuyuhun, it leads a group of small tribes around it,


    In a huge tent in Dangxiang tribe, Tuoba chici looked dignified. Around him, leaders of all departments of Dangxiang gathered one after another.


    "Let''s have a discussion! How will the various departments of our party deal with this Tuyuhun and Datang war?" Tuoba chici said.


    The heads of other departments could not help but change their faces. Two giants fought. They were sandwiched among a group of small tribes. It was very uncomfortable!


    "I, hule Bu, mean that this is the way for Fuyun to seek death. He has a grudge against Yang Guang. Now Yang Guang is dead. He still wants to provoke the Tang Dynasty. Who can blame today?" the leader of hule Bu shook his head.


    As soon as hule Bu said this, he immediately got the approval of many leaders. Now the Tang Dynasty is powerful, and such powerful Turks have been defeated in the hands of the Tang Dynasty. Although Tuyuhun is powerful, he is far worse than Turks. He even took advantage of Turks before. He didn''t expect that Turks have been extinct and Fuyun hasn''t converged.


    "That''s right. Don''t pull us to death. In my opinion, the grass is in good shape now. If my departments immediately drive cattle and sheep to yuanmu, I may be able to change to a better grassland when they finish fighting." another leader agreed.


    "That''s a bad word. Now the golden horn has sounded. At that time, our party Xiang and Tuyuhun had an agreement. Once the golden horn sounded, all departments of our party Xiang need to keep watch and help each other. Naturally, all departments of our party Xiang can''t break their promise." Tuoba Chi shook his head.


    The head of hule Department looked at Tuoba chici and sneered, "I heard that your in laws sent you a rare treasure! No wonder you spared no effort to help."


    Tuoba chici suddenly looked cold and said, "it''s the most precious treasure. How can it be comparable to the life of our men? Tang Dynasty clearly means Tuyuhun. In fact, it points to the western regions. Do you want to go back to the era when people ordered you?"


    All the leaders were shocked. Yang Guang set up four counties in Tuyuhun, which was the darkest time in the western regions.


    "That''s better than dying. You Tuoba tribe is strong and can protect yourself. Once the Tang Dynasty retaliates, I''m afraid we can only be slaughtered." the head of hule Department said sadly.


    "So, you Hule department want to help Tang Dynasty." Tuoba chici looked at the head of Hule department and snapped.


    Head hule shook his head and said, "this time, it''s Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty. Our family has received Li Jing''s invitation and will enjoy the three fort of Tuyuhun in seven days. If Tang Jun can really have a sharp and unstoppable armour, we have no choice."


    Tuoba said coldly, "Tuyuhun doesn''t have to lose. The Tang army can''t fly over the 800 Li Han sea. Aren''t you afraid to settle accounts after Fu Yunqiu."


    As grassland departments, they naturally know Tuyuhun''s plan. Even if they are defeated, they can continue to escape. Fuyun has used this trick once.


    Leader hule immediately said sadly, "of course I''m afraid that no matter who wins Datang and Tuyuhun, all the departments of our party can''t fall well. For the survival of our party, all we can do is bet on both sides. No matter who wins or loses, all the departments of our party can still survive."


    All the leaders suddenly looked sad. This is the sadness of the small tribe! Although they do not understand the truth that eggs cannot be put in one basket, the local method of betting on both sides is the reason why the various departments of the party have survived to this day.


    All the leaders had left. Tuoba chici sat in the empty tent, angrily hammered his fist on the couch around him, and said angrily: "one day, all departments of our party will stand proudly in the world and will not be bullied by others."

 Chapter 531

    "Toast sir, this is the military food given by general Su to my firearm supervisor." Xue Rengui took a large carriage of goods and materials into the firearm supervisor''s barracks and reported to Merton.


    The army must have dry food, and it is the dry food of 200000 troops. If Su dingfang wants to prepare the dry food of 200000 people, I''m afraid he can''t care about it. He can only distribute the general food among the armies and let them prepare the dry food for the army themselves.


    "Military food!" Merton couldn''t help but gather together curiously. He really didn''t eat military food when he joined the army for the first time. Although he had a long way to go, people along the way had already prepared food and had long been curious about the military food of Datang.


    Xue Rengui pulled a sack from the carriage, opened it, put it in front of Merton, revealed a yellow piece inside and said, "this is a necessary thing for marching and fighting, corn."


    "Corn!"


    Merton immediately frowned. He was no stranger to corn. When the Mojia village was poor, he ate millet and rice all day to protect his life. The biggest impression of corn was that he was not full. He could eat it normally. It was a marching war!


    Xue Rengui explained: "tell the general, since ancient times, the military food for marching and fighting has been millet rice. Although millet rice is full, people and horses can eat it, which is very convenient."


    Merton suddenly realized, but understanding belongs to understanding. For war horses, corn is a rare refined feed, but for people, it is a little insufficient.


    Merton had an idea. He thought of a common military grain in later generations. He reached out and called Xue Rengui and said, "go to general Su and leave 30% of these corn as food for the war horses, and replace the other 70% of the corn with flour."


    "Flour!" Xue Rengui immediately said, "although flour is good, it is not easy to preserve and make dry food!"


    In this era, the main function of flour is to make steamed bread and noodles. It is prone to moisture and can''t be preserved for a long time.


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "don''t worry, this sacrifice has only a clever plan."


    Xue Rengui left in disbelief, but he didn''t know that if Qin Huaiyu and the three saw Merton''s smile, they would know that Merton had another wonderful idea and would have gone in high spirits.


    Because no one wanted flour at all, and there were not many people in the fire monitor, soon Xue Rengui pulled a cart full of flour back.


    "Worship Lord, the flour you want is coming." Xue Rengui gasped.


    Merton opened the cloth bag, looked at the white flour and nodded with satisfaction.


    "Wine worship Lord, how do you make dry food?" Xue Rengui said at a loss.


    "Don''t worry, when it comes to food, Mohism is unique in the world. It ensures that you can taste delicious and easy to preserve dry food." Merton said confidently.


    "Somebody, fry all the flour for me!" Merton commanded.


    Yes, what Merton wants to do is China''s second-generation military grain, fried noodles!


    As a military grain, fried noodles became popular from the Song Dynasty until the war of resistance against Japan. The Eighth Route Army also said that there was a mouthful of fried noodles and a mouthful of snow. After thousands of years of verification, it has lasted for a long time, which obviously has its merits.


    Immediately, the whole firearm supervisor went into battle and began to set up a big pot. Soon, a pot of fried noodles was freshly baked.


    "A sneeze!" Xue Rengui couldn''t help but taste it. The taste was really good, but it was too difficult to swallow. He choked carelessly. His nostrils were fried noodles and his white mouth and nose were all fried noodles, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from Baiqi soldiers.


    Xue Rengui quickly drank a few salivas, which made him more comfortable. He wiped off the fried noodles on his face with water and said, "Lord sacrifice, this is what you call dry food."


    Merton said with a smile, "do it or not!"


    Xue Rengui said with a bitter smile, "it''s really dry, but I''m afraid it''s not hungry just to eat these fried noodles!"


    Merton turned his head and asked, "what do you say to be hungry!"


    "Meat! Of course, it''s hungry to eat meat!" Xue Rengui blurted out, and then his face was a little angry. In this era, the status of soldiers is low, and it''s good to have enough to eat. I''m afraid everything else is just to fill your stomach, except when you reward the three armed forces with big fish and meat.


    Other hundred cavalry officers and men nodded one after another. When Merton tested gunpowder weapons, he got meat for hundred cavalry officers and men. That delicious food makes them remember it now.


    Merton suddenly patted his thigh and said, "come on! Why didn''t I expect someone! Go to give me a drink and buy some livestock from the people in the city."


    Xue Rengui hesitated and said, "but when we are in the army, grain and grass are distributed uniformly! There are corn in other armies. If the firearm supervisor eats meat, I''m afraid it will arouse the dissatisfaction of the officers and soldiers!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is a test of new military food. If it is successful, I''m afraid the whole army can eat meat in the future. What''s their dissatisfaction? I''ll pay for the wine myself. Just buy it, and I''ll take the rest."


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui''s appointed took a gold ingot from Merton and immediately took the order.


    When Xue Rengui drove dozens of sheep and hundreds of chickens and ducks back to the barracks, the whole barracks immediately became a sensation. The news that the firearms supervisor wanted to develop new military grain spread all over the barracks in an instant.


    Chinese Army accounts.


    Li Jing and other generals were studying Tuyuhun''s map. When they heard a noise outside the military tent, they frowned and said, "come on, go and see what''s going on?"


    "I told the general that the firearms warden changed all the corn distributed by the army into flour, and bought a large number of poultry and livestock from the people, saying that he wanted to study new military grain." a personal soldier came in and reported to Li Jing.


    "The new military grain, so it''s disgusting that millet and rice are not delicious." Li daoyan said in a strange way.


    Cheng Yaojin skimmed his mouth and said, "it''s needless to say that you don''t know what corn rice tastes. It''s not only not delicious, but also not full."


    It''s not just Cheng Yaojin. Other generals would have been tired of sharing millet if it wasn''t convenient for people and horses. Moreover, millet and rice are eaten by ordinary soldiers. Unless it''s a show or in a particularly difficult period, as generals, they naturally have other small stoves, such as the famous fried meat of generals in later years.


    Merton himself even opened a small stove. He even opened a small stove for the whole firearms prison, and there was a lot of noise.


    "General, this trend can''t last long. Fairness is the most important thing in the army. If other armies eat corn and firearm supervisors eat meat, I''m afraid it will cause dissatisfaction in the army." Hou Junji said with an uneasy face.


    Other generals also nodded one after another, which is indeed a lot of hidden dangers.


    Li Jing sighed immediately. There was a rumor in Chang''an city that mojiazi was a catfish. He went where he tossed. Now he finally realized Li Shimin''s feeling.


    However, due to the special status of the firearm supervisor, he naturally had to be careful. When he was hesitating, a personal soldier came in and reported: "inform the general that the firearm supervisor offered wine and ask the general to give advice on new military rations."


    As soon as Li Jing''s eyes lit up, he suddenly got up and said, "let''s go and see what''s unique about the new military grain of ink sacrifice wine. I heard that everything from the hands of ink sacrifice wine has its own magic. If the new military grain is really good, I''m afraid we can get rid of this tasteless millet rice in the future."


    All the generals despised and expected, and got up together and went to the fire monitor.

 Chapter 532

    Before Li Jing and his party arrived at the firearm prison, they had smelled a strong smell of meat.


    "How delicious!" Cheng Yaojin greedily smelled the meat fragrance in the air. He hadn''t enjoyed Mohist food for a long time since he set out for the war. At this time, the aroma immediately made him salivate.


    More than Cheng Yaojin, even the generals couldn''t help taking a deep breath, not to mention ordinary generals. If the military orders were not strict, I''m afraid they would have been surrounded.


    "I''ve heard that Mohist food is extraordinary for a long time, and it really deserves its reputation." Li Jing smiled and took the generals into the firearms prison.


    As soon as he entered the firearms prison, he saw a soldier frying white flour in front of a big pot. Merton was pointing aside. When he saw Li Jing and his party coming in, Merton quickly greeted him and saluted.


    "See you, generals!" Murton bowed.


    Li Jing nodded, looked at a large pot of hot fried noodles and said, "this is the new military grain mentioned in the ink sacrifice wine."


    Merton explained: "This is fried noodles. It is a traditional folk food in Huai''an. The local Yellow River is flooded. Every year, a large number of civilian men are recruited to repair the river embankment. Every time the civilian men go to repair the river embankment, the mother-in-law of the family will make some fried noodles for the civilian men to carry as dry food on the road. After a long time, it is even a tradition. The local people will make fried noodles for consumption on June 6 every year. It is said that, After fried noodles are made, they can be stored for two months for a short time and for three months for a long time. "


    "Two months!" Li Jing exclaimed.


    The generals couldn''t help looking at Merton suspiciously. They had never seen that they could store dry food for two months.


    Merton nodded: "according to local records, if some folk bring too much fried noodles and don''t finish eating, they can still be used as return dry food after three months of river work."


    "There''s even this!" Li Jing said in surprise.


    "There must be soldiers in Huai''an area in the army. The general can tell by asking." Merton said confidently.


    "Come on, go to the army and find a group of soldiers from Huai''an." Li Jing ordered without hesitation that he could store dry food for two months. If it could be confirmed, it would be a great help for the expedition army to get rid of the heavy burden of logistics!


    If so, the western expedition has not yet started, it will make a contribution.


    Suddenly, the generals looked at the young man with jealous eyes. They probably believed 80% of the role of fried noodles in their hearts. With Merton''s reputation, if they were not sure, they wouldn''t take this risk.


    They risked their lives to get the military merit, but the MOH family won it without effort. How can this balance people''s hearts.


    "Whether the fried noodles are true remains to be confirmed. Can the ink sacrifice wine buy so many livestock and poultry for so long." Hou Junji looked at the steaming pot next to the fried noodles, a large number of meat pieces floating and sinking, emitting an attractive fragrance, and said with a strange look.


    Merton sighed, "although fried noodles are easy to store, the soldiers are killing the enemy for the country. The long-distance expedition is the most physically demanding. If there is only pasta but no meat, it may be difficult to support."


    Merton''s words immediately made the generals nod slowly. They often knew the suffering of the soldiers in the army. When they heard Merton think about the soldiers again, they looked at Merton a little softer.


    "So, the boy thought, mix some minced meat in the fried noodles, so that it is delicious and can make the soldiers replenish their strength." Merton brought a plate of dry food mixed with minced meat in the fried noodles and signaled the people to taste it.


    "Hmm! It tastes meat and tastes good." Li Jingpin tasted it and brightened his eyes.


    "If it''s salty, you should put salt, so you don''t have to bring extra salt." Cheng Yaojin''s eyes lit up.


    "Just too dry." Duan Zhixuan swallowed hard.


    Merton quickly handed over the cold boiled water that had already been prepared. As soon as they drank it, they slowed down. Looking at the fried noodles mixed with meat foam, they nodded with satisfaction.


    "Do it well. It lasts longer, and it tastes much better than dried millet rice. I like Laocheng." Cheng Yaojin praised loudly.


    It''s easy to preserve dry talents. That''s why we need to prepare dry food for the expedition. Suddenly, the public will believe that Merton''s two-month shelf life is a little more.


    At the moment, Li Jing''s personal soldiers came in a hurry with five soldiers and reported: "I inform the general that the soldiers from Huai''an have arrived."


    "See you, general!" five officers and men from Huai''an looked at the generals in front of them and said in fear.


    Li Jingrou came forward, pointed to fried noodles and asked, "do you know what this is?"


    An old soldier nodded and said, "this is fried noodles. It is a common thing in villains'' hometown and a necessary thing for people to build the river."


    "It can really last for two months," Li Jing asked.


    The old soldier affirmed: "indeed, the villain started from Huai''an''s home after receiving the recruitment. The dry food prepared by his wife for the villain is fried noodles. After walking from Huai''an to Chang''an for two months, the prepared fried noodles are still good and edible."


    All the soldiers of Huai''an native place nodded one after another and said, "so are the villains. I heard that some river workers have stored fried noodles for half a year."


    After hearing the testimony of officers and men from Huai''an, the generals were convinced that this fried noodles is indeed a rare thing for military dry food.


    "Ink sacrificial wine is indeed a learned man. He is far away in Chang''an. He can even know the Huai''an folk customs thousands of miles away." Duan Zhixuan praised.


    Morton modestly said, "general Duan is flattered. This is recorded in the collection of anecdotes in the world by Ink magazine. I also got it by chance."


    Li Jing solved the problem of dry food for the army expedition. He was in a happy mood and said, "the world knows a lot of fried noodles, but you are the only one who can think of using it for military food. After this expedition, the general will certainly ask the imperial court for a contribution for you."


    However, to the surprise of the generals, Merton shook his head slowly and said, "this is fried noodles, not a thing of the Mohist school. I don''t dare to dedicate my skills to Buddha by borrowing flowers."


    The generals immediately looked at Merton as if they were fools. This is military merit, which is not equal to other merits. To put it bluntly, in Datang, as long as you have enough military merit, you can be exempted from capital punishment in addition to rebellion.


    Li Jing looked at Merton in surprise and said thoughtfully, "the world says that the Mohist school is nothing new in the world. Do you say that the dry food offered is not fried noodles?"


    Merton nodded proudly and said, "yes, this is what you want to give to the general."


    Merton finished, reached out and handed Li Jing a square block like the size of the palm of his hand.


    "Is this?" Li Jing wondered.


    "Compressed dry food!" Merton said solemnly.

 Chapter 533

    "Can I eat this?" Li Jing looked at the hard guy in his hand and hesitated. Although he is a peerless famous general, he has been in his 60s after all, and his teeth are not good. After looking at the hard compressed dry food in his hand, he still didn''t dare to talk.


    Merton grabbed a handful of fried noodles and put them in front of the crowd. "Of course you can eat it. This compressed dry food is made of fried noodles. Although fried noodles are good, they have fatal defects."


    "Afraid of the tide!" Li Jing blurted out.


    Merton nodded and said, "what the general said is that fried noodles are too soft. I''m afraid they will become paste in case of rain. I''m afraid they will break soon."


    The generals nodded. In fact, it''s not just fried noodles. I''m afraid all dry food in the world has this problem.


    "Another defect is that the fried noodles are too thin. If they are loaded with linen, I''m afraid they will leak out." Merton added that there are no fine bags in this era. If they are packed in coarse linen bags, the fried noodles will leak out soon.


    "How do you install fried noodles in Huai''an?" Li Jing turned and asked.


    The elder soldiers hurriedly said, "the villains are made of sheepskin to put fried noodles in leather bags."


    The generals immediately shook their heads. If only some people were there, but the imperial army had a total of 200000. How could they make so many sheepskin bags in a hurry.


    Merton nodded: "the boy found the shortcomings of fried noodles, so he specially made improvements. This compressed dry food can not only preserve the advantages of fried noodles, but also overcome the shortcomings of fried noodles. It can be said that it is the most perfect military food."


    Under the leadership of Merton, a group of people came to the back of another barracks. They saw a pot of fried noodles made by firearm officers mixed with a large amount of boiled meat foam, plus a large amount of broth, stirred evenly, and suddenly a fragrant dough appeared in front of them.


    "Dry food is most afraid of moisture. You take the initiative to add water. How can you keep it?" Cheng Yaojin asked.


    Merton said with a smile, "add water and dry them soon."


    "Isn''t that Nang cake? What''s so strange about it?" Cheng Yaojin said.


    Nang cake is also a kind of dry food, but the shelf life is shorter. It''s good to have a shelf life of more than ten days.


    Merton explained: "although the Nang cake is good, it is too soft and easy to carry, but it is not easy to preserve. The boy thought of a way. If we mix the fried noodles with water, press them firmly with heavy stones, and then bake them dry, this will perfectly solve this problem."


    I saw that a hundred cavalry soldiers put the reconciled dough into a grinding tool, lifted a huge stone weighing up to 1000 kg in four directions with a 1000 kg arm, and pressed it heavily on the grinding tool under the control of the soldiers,


    After compression. A hundred cavalry officers and men immediately took over and gave them to special people to bake. Soon, pieces of dried compressed dry food were freshly baked and sent to Merton and others.


    Merton picked up a piece of compressed dry food, blew the hot air, and took the lead in eating.


    The other generals couldn''t help tasting it. They didn''t have eyes and said, "it tastes good. It''s better than millet rice, and it''s not as choking as fried noodles."


    Compressed dry food is dry, but it is also within the range of tolerance.


    Seeing this, Li Jing couldn''t help taking a bite. It was not as hard as expected, and the key taste was good.


    Cheng Yaojin ate quickly. He ate up the compressed dry food in his hand and wanted to take another piece. Merton quickly dissuaded him: "Uncle Cheng, wait a minute. This compressed dry food is made of heavy pressure and can stop hunger. Don''t look at this small compressed dry food, which can make ordinary people not hungry all day. If you eat too much, I''m afraid it''s hard for your stomach to bear."


    "A piece of compressed dry food can stop hunger for a day." Cheng Yaojin was shocked, and the compressed dry food in his hand fell unconsciously.


    All the other generals couldn''t believe it and said, "just a small piece of palm size! How much is it? I''m afraid it''s about three Liang."


    Not only did other generals not believe it, but even Li Jing could not believe it and looked at Merton.


    Merton Road: "Your generals, the most honest thing in the world is the stomach. Whether you are hungry or not depends on how much food you eat. The rations calculated in the army are three and a half kilograms in three days, but they are millet and rice that are not hungry. The compressed dry food uses refined flour, including grease and meat foam. Although it is only three or two weights, it is at least equivalent to the flour used in six steamed buns. Isn''t it enough to make one Can an ordinary person stop hunger for a day? "


    After Merton explained to the generals with detailed data, everyone immediately became silent.


    It is true that unless people eat a lot, six steamed buns are enough to support a day, and there is oil in the compressed dry food. Meat foam is a first-class thing to stop hunger. According to this calculation, this small piece of dry food is really enough for a soldier''s rations for a day.


    "In this way, if a soldier carries nine kilograms of compressed dry food, it will be enough to support the cost of a month." Cheng Yaojin broke his fingers and startled himself, which is 60% less than the normal food and grass.


    "Yes, and compressed dry food is very easy to preserve. Because it is very strong, it won''t deteriorate easily even in the rain. At room temperature, the boy can ensure that it won''t be bad for two months. If it is wrapped in oil paper, it can be preserved for at least half a year." Merton patted his chest.


    The drier the dry food, the easier it is to preserve. Looking at the dry compressed biscuits in his hand, the generals believe that what Merton said is true this time.


    In an instant, all the generals'' eyes lit up. The compressed biscuit not only stopped hunger, but also was light, four square, easy to carry, and was indeed the most perfect military food.


    "General, Qinghai is sparsely populated. If this compressed dry food can help, our worries about grain and grass will be greatly alleviated." Cheng Yaojin said to Li Jingning.


    Li Jing nodded and suddenly shouted, "where is Su Ding?"


    "The end will come!"


    Su dingfang, who had already heard the news, hurried forward.


    "If the order goes on, all the grain and grass escorted in the future will be changed from corn to wheat. It''s best to use ground flour to make this compressed dry grain." Li Jing ordered.


    "Yes!" Su dingfang replied, but he immediately said with a bitter face, "general, flour is easy to handle, but the end general can''t get so much meat!"


    There are 200000 troops in Lanzhou city. How much meat do you need! He can still gather flour, but he can''t get meat.


    The generals'' faces froze. Although there is no shortage of meat near Lanzhou, they are all in the hands of ordinary people. They also need money to buy it. The army went to war to carry grain and grass, but they didn''t bring money.


    Cheng Yaojin glanced at Merton and said leisurely, "you and I have no money, but isn''t there another rich man here?"


    For a moment, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton.


    Merton came forward with a dry cough and said, "Mojia village has a little face in the business community. You can borrow a sum of money from Longyou to buy poultry meat on behalf of others, so as to ensure that there will be no shortage of meat to produce compressed dry food."


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help turning his eyes. Mojia village is not only a leader in the business world, but also a leader in the business world. When Mojia village comes forward, naturally people don''t have to worry about default. It''s very convenient to raise money.


    Li Jing nodded with satisfaction and said softly, "after the western expedition, I will play the imperial court. I can''t live without your money."


    Merton shook his head and said, "boy, don''t want money."


    "What do you want?" Li Jing said strangely.


    Merton said, "the general will still lack livestock when he enters Tuyuhun. He only needs how many livestock he needs and how many livestock he can return to Mojia village. After all, many people are unwilling to sell livestock. Mojia village can just return him with the livestock from Qinghai."


    The generals'' eyes brightened when they heard the speech, so that the imperial court could get enough meat for the army without spending a penny, without arousing public resentment.


    Li Jing took a deep look at Merton, nodded with appreciation and said, "OK, I can still decide this little thing."


    With the cooperation of Mojia village and the military, a large number of livestock were sent to the military camp. Suddenly, the sound of killing pigs and sheep was heard all over Lanzhou City, and the meat aroma of the military camp overflowed.


    At this moment, the whole 200000 troops had no complaints, and the name of Mohist School spread all over the military camp in an instant.

 Chapter 534

    Seven days passed in a flash, and the day of departure has come.


    Outside Lanzhou City, 200000 troops and horses gather, but their momentum is much greater than that in front of Chang''an city. Among the troops and iron horses, 50000 Turkic cavalry are particularly prominent.


    "Datang is really strong!" the leader of Dangxiang who came to watch the ceremony said in horror. Datang already had the advantage of soldiers and armor. With the help of Turkic cavalry, wouldn''t it be like adding wings to the tiger.


    "Tuyuhun is not weak. Fuyun sounded the Golden Horn and summoned 300000 Tuyuhun warriors. They may not lose!" some leaders of Dangxiang tribe disagreed.


    "It''s arrogant of the Tang people to ask us to observe the three Tuguhun fortresses. The three Tuguhun fortresses were built by Yang Guang and later won by Fu Yun. They took more than ten years to build. They are easy to defend and difficult to attack. They must be broken and bleeding by the Tang people." a leader close to Tuoba tribe sneered in local language.


    Li Jing looked at the whispering leader of Dangxiang tribe and turned to the direction of the fire monitor. He couldn''t help showing a confident smile. This time, he was sure to eat Tuyuhun three fort.


    Everyone knows that the key to which side these wall grasses lean is the strength of Datang in attacking the third fort of Tuyuhun.


    "Let''s go!" Li Jing shouted with a wave of her long sword.


    Immediately, 200000 troops rushed out to the third fort of Tuyuhun.


    Tuyuhun three fort is about 200 miles away from the junction of Datang and Tuyuhun and Lanzhou. The army starts from the morning. When the sun tilts to the west, the vanguard cavalry of Datang military has reached the border of Tuyuhun three fort.


    Tuyuhun three fortresses have no specific name. In order to distinguish the three fortresses, Datang calls them Tuyuhun, guhun and Tuyuhun, and the one closest to Datang is Tuyuhun.


    At the moment, Tu fort is already facing the great enemy and ready. It is even heard that the Tang Dynasty is going to use Tuyuhun''s three forts to intimidate all the departments of the party. Fu Yun even sent his famous general Wang murongding to lead 20000 cavalry to help. Thinking of occupying the favorable momentum, Tang army must break its head and bleed blood.


    "Famous King! Since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, should we send cavalry to kill for a while, so that the Tang people can see the power of my soldiers and soldiers."


    On the wall of Tubao, a fierce follower around the famous King was eager to try. He led Tuyuhun soldiers to rob Datang many times. He had never encountered great resistance and despised the Tang army.


    The famous Wang murongding shook his head and said, "when the Tang army came at the beginning, the morale is booming. We can''t underestimate the enemy. We''ll sit in a strong city and spend some of the Tang army''s energy before making plans. In addition, if we want to attack, we have to wait until the dead of night."


    "Wang Yingming!" he said with a smile.


    They Tuyuhun are cavalry. They can come and go freely under the cover of night. If they use this method, they will certainly be able to harass the Tang army.


    "General, it''s late now. What if we don''t camp for the time being and attack the third fort of Tuyuhun tomorrow?" head hule looked at the dangerous terrain and said to Li Jing with worry.


    Other party leaders also looked at TU Fort one after another with gloating eyes. Anyone can guess that if Datang wants to conquer Tu fort, he must pay a heavy price.


    If Datang suffers too much, I''m afraid it''s not a demonstration, but a joke.


    How can Li Jing not know the thoughts of these party leaders? He laughed and said, "your distinguished guests have come all the way. How can you let you camp in the wild? Is that the way of hospitality in the Tang Dynasty? Come, attack Tu fort for me and free up the king''s account named Wang Murong for your guests."


    "Attack now!"


    Suddenly, all party leaders looked at Li Jing inconceivably.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    When the drums sounded in the army, a group of soldiers stepped out, assumed an offensive posture and strode forward to Tubao.


    The famous King Murong Ding looked at the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who strode forward. He was very angry and said with a smile: "old thief Li Jing deceived people too much. He underestimated me."


    The Tang army dared to attack as soon as it arrived. It was obviously intended to attack Tuyuhun at one stroke. How could such a contempt not make the famous Wang Murong angry.


    "The whole army is on alert. We must let Li Jing taste our power today." the famous Wang murongding roared.


    "Woo!"


    In the Tubao, the horn sounded, and a large number of Turkic soldiers boarded the Tubao city wall and began to be ready.


    "Rush!"


    The former army was Duan Zhixuan''s Zuo Qianniu guard. With an order, a large number of Tang troops dressed in heavy armor rushed towards Tubao.


    On his horse, Merton saw such a grand war scene for the first time. He couldn''t help sweating his nervous palms and staring at the indomitable Tang Army soldiers.


    "Worship Lord, do you think Murong will block the gate?" Li Daliang said nervously in front of Merton.


    Merton wiped the sweat from his palm secretly, pretending to be calm and said, "whether it''s blocked or not, you have to try once."


    Merton spoke with ease. His eyes kept staring at Xue Rengui among the charging soldiers.


    Four hundred steps!


    Three hundred steps!


    Two hundred steps! "


    "Jingle!"


    Duan Zhixuan took a long gun and pushed away the bow and arrow of a Turkic archer. It was obvious that he had stepped into the range of Tuyuhun archers here.


    "Crossbow and arrow fight back!" Duan Zhixuan shouted. Suddenly, thousands of divine arm crossbows were launched and shot at Tubao.


    "Beware of crossbows and arrows." Murong Ding suddenly grabbed a huge shield and shouted.


    In fact, needless to say, the overwhelming number of crossbows and arrows had already made all Tuyuhun soldiers heartbroken.


    The arrow rain floated over the city wall of Tuyuhun castle, and there was a scream. Some Tuyuhun soldiers did not escape by relying on the leather shield in their hands. Powerful crossbows and arrows directly penetrated the leather shield and shot into the unprepared chest of Tuyuhun soldiers.


    "There is such power beyond 200 steps!" Murong Ding, the famous King, looked at the crossbow and arrow deeply embedded in the refined iron shield in his hand and said with lingering fear.


    Before the famous Wang murongding reacted, a group of crossbows and arrows shot at Tuyuhun''s soldiers. They couldn''t hold their heads up.


    "Rush!" seeing this opportunity, Xue Rengui suddenly drank, took more than a dozen hundred horses, raised a huge shield and rushed to the gate of Tubao.


    city gate!


    Murong Ding suddenly changed his face when he saw the attack direction of the Tang army. He suddenly felt bad. In order to attack the Tang army at night, he didn''t seal the city gate. He shouted: "shoot this Tang army for me."


    In an instant, many Tuyuhun soldiers braved the arrow rain of the divine arm crossbow and shot at Xue Rengui and his party.


    "Don''t worry, this is a special steel shield made by the wine worship Lord. Ordinary bows and arrows can''t shoot through at all, so they rush with all their strength." Xue Rengui snapped with his teeth.


    Immediately, under the leadership of Xue Rengui, a group of hundreds of riders rushed to the city gate.


    "Give me all the strength to suppress the Tuyuhun archers, and be sure to buy time for the firearm supervisor." Duan Zhixuan shouted, pulling his bow and fighting back at Tubao.


    The distance of two hundred steps was fast. In a twinkling of an eye, Xue Rengui and others had rushed to the gate of Tubao.


    "With so many people, I want to break through the city gate." in the Tang army, the leader of all parties looked at the more than ten people in the firearms prison, and the lone army killed Tubao.


    However, to their astonishment, the ten soldiers just stopped at the bottom of Tubao, turned around and ran back crazily with their shields on their backs.


    Not only the leader of Dangxiang is incredible, but also the famous Wang murongding and Tuyuhun soldiers on the city wall. However, in their invisible sight, several barrels of gunpowder have been accumulated at the gate of the city, and a lead is burning rapidly.


    "Tang army retreated!" a Tuyuhun soldier couldn''t help cheering.


    However, the cheers did not fall, and a loud noise hundreds and thousands of times louder than the sound drowned it.


    "Boom!"


    With a loud noise, the whole hamburger shook three times.


    "What''s the matter?" the famous Wang murongding shouted in surprise


    When the smoke of gunpowder dispersed, the originally closed Tubao gate had been blown to pieces, revealing the empty city gate.


    "The city is broken!" the famous Wang Murong was stunned. The news was even more shocking than the loud noise just now. The three Fort Tuyuhun, which he was proud of, broke after less than a round in the hands of the Tang army.


    "It''s broken!" Duan Zhixuan was shocked. Although he had expected this scene for a long time, when he saw the Tubao city gate open, he waved his hand.


    "Rush for me! Don''t let the boys of the firearm supervisor take the lead." Duan Zhixuan roared. When he became the first soldier, he took the lead in rushing towards Tubao.


    The first one to rush into the enemy city is the merit of climbing first, which is enough to raise an ordinary soldier three levels in a row. Who doesn''t want such merit.


    However, what they did not expect was that the people in the firearms prison did not fight back at all, but formed an array in situ to protect themselves.


    "Captain, why don''t we climb first." a hundred cavalry soldier had a sharp arrow in his arm, but he was still unwilling to look at the gate of Tuyuhun city.


    Other hundred cavalry officers and men couldn''t help looking to the side in the direction of the city gate. They were closest to the direction of the city gate. If they fought back with all their strength, they would certainly be the first to rush into Tubao. However, there was a loud cry of killing in Tubao. It was obvious that the merit of first climbing had already been handed over to others.


    Xue Rengui picked up a clean cloth rope, tied the injured arm tightly, stopped the bleeding and said, "this is the order of the wine worship Lord. We have few firearms supervisors, and each one is precious. Besides, we have the ability to break the city, not to climb first."


    A hundred cavalry officers and men were relieved. They were holding the sharp weapon of gunpowder bomb. Do they still have no credit?


    Xue Rengui saw the wounded hundred cavalry soldiers and was ready to break their arrows. He quickly dissuaded them and said, "the war will end soon. Keep the bow and arrow and let the doctor manage it for you!"


    Xue Rengui was right. When the Tang army rushed into Tubao, under the sharp armor of the Tang army, the resistance of Tuyuhun soldiers soon collapsed and began to flee in large numbers.


    When the sun fell into the west mountain and the earth fell into darkness, the cry of Tubao gradually subsided.


    "Tell the general that Tubao has been captured, the famous Wang murongding has fled to the valley castle, and general Duan is pursuing." a soldier came to report with blood all over his body.


    "OK!" Li Jing laughed loudly, walked up to a group of party leaders who were as numb as a chicken and said proudly, "ladies and gentlemen! The king''s account of the famous King has been cleaned for you. Please go and have a rest."


    A group of party leaders suddenly became cold all over. They could not imagine that Tubao, which looked like a natural moat to them, was taken by the Tang Dynasty. The once famous Wang murongding escaped like a lost dog.


    In particular, with that earth shaking noise, the city gate was broken in tubaoton. Such a weapon like a God is in the hands of Datang. Who else is Datang''s opponent in the world.


    Suddenly, the people couldn''t help looking at leader hule. Leader hule was also full of bitterness. This time, it seemed that Dangxiang had bet twice, but after today, I''m afraid we can only go close to Datang.


    People couldn''t help but sympathize with Tuoba tribe. This time, Tuoba tribe completely stood in the wrong team. Dead friends didn''t die. They were secretly glad to think of this place.


    A leader of the people''s party Xiang asked about gunpowder weapons several times, but he was fooled by Li Jing Gu. He walked into the Tubao city gate in a hurry, but found that all the city bricks had been painted with water and looked new except that the city gate was missing.


    The leader of all the parties couldn''t help laughing bitterly. It seems that Datang is heavily guarded against this weapon. Everyone is not surprised. If they had this weapon, they would be more cautious than Datang.


    In the Tubao, a group of party leaders lived in a beautiful king''s tent. When the lantern was lit, a group of party leaders were not happy at all. Today, Tang Jun shocked them too much. Such powerful Tang Jun kept them awake at night.


    Sleepless night!


    The next morning, a group of party leaders with two big dark circles followed the army again and came to the valley castle.


    The valley castle is one size smaller than Tubao, and the terrain is more dangerous. However, such a dangerous terrain can no longer give Murong a sense of security.


    Murong Ding looked at the slowly pressing Tang army with bloodshot eyes. The grievances that ran away recklessly yesterday Suddenly surged into his heart. If Gu Bao''s subordinates hadn''t come to pick him up, he might not be able to escape the pursuit of Tang army. Rao was so. His subordinates lost half of their losses.


    "Famous King, the city gate has been sealed." I reported carefully.


    Murong nodded, hammered his hate on the wall and said in a harsh voice, "Li Jing, I see how you can break my Valley Castle this time."


    "Be careful, general!" the follower suddenly exclaimed.


    Dozens of huge items suddenly flew from the Tang army camp towards the valley castle.


    Catapult!


    Murong Ding''s eyes shrunk. The catapult was a sharp weapon for attacking the city. Naturally, he knew that Tang Jun had moved here.


    "Don''t worry, just a stone catapult can''t break the wall of my Valley castle!" Murong Ding said confidently. However, he didn''t find that there were some inconspicuous black objects among the huge stones.


    "Dong!" the huge stone hit the tall city wall. The unlucky Tuyuhun soldiers were hit at both ends of their heads by the stone.


    Murong Ding was not relieved. Yu Guang swept a dark object and landed not far from him.


    "Boom, boom!"


    With a flash of fire, a series of explosions rang out at the head of the whole Gubao city.


    After the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, the surviving Tuyuhun soldiers found the seriously injured king from the ruins.


    Murong Ding watched gunpowder bombs explode on the city wall, and Tuyuhun warriors skilled in bows and horses were like pieces of paper with thunderous weapons. They had no power to fight back. He suddenly realized: "abandon the city, abandon the city immediately. We Tuyuhun are warriors on the grassland. We should have dominated the grassland, but we want to learn from the Han people to guard the city and learn to walk in Handan!"


    When the Tang army boarded the valley Castle easily under a fierce attack, the valley castle had been sent to Makong. Not only that, but also Hun castle. In less than a day and a night, all three Tuguhun forts fell into the hands of the Tang army.

 Chapter 535

    "Murong must be wise!" Li Jing said with regret as she stepped into the empty Hun castle.


    He deliberately spread the news and made a big attack on Tuyuhun''s third fort, which was to use the benefit of gunpowder to prepare for a wave of Tuyuhun. However, this plan only succeeded in Tuyuhun, killing thousands of Tuyuhun soldiers. As soon as Gubao was half hit, Murong Ding was frightened and withdrew directly.


    "Tuyuhun retreated to the grassland, and this battle will be difficult to fight." Hou Junji''s face was heavy.


    Other generals nodded one after another. The grassland is the world of cavalry, and Tuyuhun is the world of cavalry. All the people are cavalry. They occupy the geographical advantage and can attack and escape. It is like a tiger entering the mountains and forests.


    "Fortunately, it''s not without harvest!" Li Jing glanced at the leader of a group of parties who was whispering not far away, showing an expression of wisdom beads in his hand.


    "Tang junbing armour is so sharp!"


    The leader of all the parties was stunned by the empty Hun fort. He was shocked. The famous Tuyuhun three fort was taken by Tang Jun overnight, and Tang Jun''s loss could be said to be minimal.


    "With weapons comparable to the gods, who is the opponent of the Tang army in the world?" leader hule said with a lonely look.


    Other party leaders could not help but rejoice that they did not stand in the wrong line and had a chance to remedy it.


    "We are willing to be friends with Datang forever." under the leadership of leader hule, a group of party leaders came to the generals and swore one after another.


    Li Jing laughed and said, "I Tang is a state of etiquette. Naturally, I am willing to make friends for your tribes. This expedition of Tang is Tuyuhun''s repeated provocations. We are forced to fight back. However, for tribes that make friends with Tang, Tang has never treated him badly."


    "Yes! Yes! We have admired the name of Tian Khan for a long time. Naturally, we can trust the Tang Dynasty. This time, Tian Khan sent troops to fight against the old thief Fuyun. Hule department is willing to donate thousands of good horses to help the Tang Dynasty." hule leader, speaking fluent Chinese, flattered.


    One after another, leaders of all parties secretly scolded leader hule for being crafty and cunning, and even preempted the performance in front of Datang.


    "Our department is also willing to prepare food and grass for the Tang Dynasty for the army."


    "Our department is the same, and is willing to send a guide to guide the Tang army."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The leaders of Dangxiang tribes vied with each other. Originally, they still had some wait-and-see ideas. However, since they saw the power of gunpowder, they no longer planned to ride the wall.


    The generals couldn''t help but look happy. So many tribes fell to Datang. The western expedition was much smoother than expected.


    "Thank you very much, but as far as I know, there are still many tribal leaders who haven''t come, and even some diehards like Tuoba chici. Please tell them not to stand in the wrong team and turn back in time. Otherwise, Khan will be angry and I''m afraid no one can protect them." Li Jing said sternly.


    The leader of a public party immediately broke into a cold sweat, nodded repeatedly and said, "I will bring the message to you."


    Li Jing nodded with satisfaction. In this way, those sitting and watching tribes who want to take refuge in Tuyuhun may have to think twice.


    "The general heard that Tuoba chici was determined to follow Tuyuhun because the old thief Fuyun gave Tuoba chici a rare diamond. Do you know who owns the diamond?" Li Jing said.


    A group of tribal leaders looked at Li Jing in disbelief.


    "Ink offering wine!" Li Jing turned with a smile and looked at Merton at the end.


    Merton came forward and said, "this diamond is the property of my Mohist school."


    "Mohist School... Mohist school!" the leader of hule suddenly exclaimed, looking at Merton strangely.


    Other leaders saw that Merton was a young man and couldn''t help but despise him. However, seeing that leader hule exclaimed so much, they immediately heard sporadic memories of the Mohist school. They didn''t know what Mohist school was, but they had heard rumors that there was a young man in Chang''an City who offered a reward of ten thousand gold to collect the unique skills of the western regions and turned stones into gold, Make the extremely hard diamond into a rare and precious diamond worth thousands of gold.


    The most attractive thing is getting rich overnight. The beauty and precious of diamonds have long been spread to every tribe by merchants in the western regions.


    Li jinglang said in a voice: "yes, this is the Mo family who is proficient in the unique knowledge of the western regions in the Tang Dynasty. It is from him that he made the hard diamond into a diamond worth thousands of gold. If you are willing to help me, I am willing to give each tribe a diamond."


    Merton timely took out a tray, on which more than ten forged diamond rings immediately took everyone''s attention.


    "Gollum!"


    All the tribal leaders couldn''t help swallowing a mouthful of water and greedily looking at the diamond ring in front of them.


    "This is for us." leader hule looked at the diamond ring in front of him strangely. If they said they didn''t envy Tuoba chici''s diamond treasures, it would be a lie. They didn''t expect that they would have a chance to get diamonds so soon.


    "Yes, there is good wine when friends come, and spears when jackals come. Naturally, Tang will not treat friends badly." Li Jing politely applied Merton''s words and said in a loud voice.


    Looking at the party leaders who can''t wait to leave with diamonds, the generals can''t help showing a trace of pride. Once today''s story is spread, the number of Dangxiang tribes inclined to the Tang Dynasty will increase greatly.


    The combination of grace and power!


    Gunpowder, diamonds!


    It has to be said that Li Jing played very beautifully. In this way, these tribes will be completely tied to the chariot of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Ink sacrificing wine, it''s a waste for you this time." Li Jing looked at Merton and said with satisfaction that Dangxiang was greedy for money. It''s well known that according to the original plan, Datang was going to buy Dangxiang''s departments with a lot of money. However, after careful investigation, Li Jing immediately stopped and changed the gift after Fu Yun bought Tuoba Chizhi''s resignation with diamonds.


    Merton shook his head and said, "although diamonds are good, they are just a pile of beautiful stones in front of mo. how can they be compared with state affairs."


    The western expedition was a great event for the whole country in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, Merton would not give up a few diamonds.


    Li Jing glanced at Merton with appreciation, and the money came back. This is the famous saying of the son of the Mohist school, Chang''an city. When I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation. They heard that a Hu merchant directly offered 300 good horses for a brick and stone. If these diamonds fall on the market, they will certainly cause people to rob them, at least equivalent to 3000 good horses. Merton directly sent them out, which can be seen from his heart and chest.


    Of course, everyone knows that Merton has not suffered a loss. Today''s events will certainly spread to Li Shimin''s ears. At that time, the contribution of the Mexican family today will naturally be double compensated.


    All the generals stood on the wall of Hun fort and looked dignified when they saw the endless green grassland in the south.


    The three Fort Tuyuhun is just a trial of the Tang Dynasty. The real battle has not yet begun. Once it enters the prairie, the difficulties faced by the Tang Dynasty will increase tenfold and hundredfold.

 Chapter 536

    "Tuyuhun three fortresses are lost!" the old Fu Yun was shocked and looked at the dying king Murong Ding in front of him.


    He originally thought that Tang Jun would pay a heavy price by virtue of the three strongholds of Tuyuhun. He took this opportunity to let more Dangxiang tribes stand on Tuyuhun''s side,


    However, I didn''t expect that the Tuyuhun three fort was defeated so seriously. In less than a day and a night, the Tuyuhun three Fort fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Khan, the Tang army has mastered the weapons of the gods, making a loud noise like thunder. The well-trained Qinghai army panicked. The powerful warriors will be crushed without seeing the enemy, and the solid city gate is as vulnerable as a piece of paper. Khan thought twice, the Tang army can''t compete directly!" Murong Ding struggled to look at Fu Yun, regardless of his injury.


    Fu Yun nodded and said, "you did a good job this time. Go down and recover first!"


    Although Murong Ding was defeated and returned, he also saved the main force of the third fort of Tuyuhun in time. In addition, he was seriously injured, and Fu Yun could not be too harsh.


    Murong Ding was carried down, and the whole King''s account was silent.


    "King Tianzhu, have all the troops of Tuyuhun ever assembled?" Fu Yun asked.


    The king of Tianzhu suddenly stood out and said, "when the golden horn sounded, all the departments naturally responded. Now, 300000 iron cavalry of Tuyuhun have been concentrated by the Bank of Qinghai Lake, waiting for the Khan''s order."


    Voyun immediately felt certain that the 300000 iron cavalry immediately made voyun full of confidence. After more than 20 years of recuperation, Tuyuhun''s strength had been restored, which was also the strength of voyun''s courage to provoke Datang.


    "Send 50000 cavalry escorts to transfer the old and weak of each tribe first. Ben Khan led 250000 iron cavalry to compete with Li Jing in person." Fu Yun said coldly. He had such a big army. How can he be reconciled if he didn''t fight with the Tang Dynasty.


    Tuyuhun is also a nomadic people. They have no fixed place to live. It is a custom to transfer women, children, old and weak before the war. This is also the means by which all parts of the grassland depend for survival. Even if they are defeated, they can retreat to the vast smokeless grassland. The army of the Tang Dynasty has a lot of luggage and can''t catch up with the grassland cavalry.


    "Khan is wise!" the king of Tianzhu complimented.


    Other king Tuyuhun around could not help but secretly scold King Tianzhu for flattering. This is a routine used by nomads. How did it become a great skill in the mouth of King Tianzhu.


    The former crown prince Murong Shun looked at King Tianzhu with contempt and bowed down and said: "tell father Khan, since the soldiers of the third fort of Tuyuhun retreated to the king''s account, it has been rumored that Tang Jun had a weapon comparable to the gods and came to punish me. The soldiers in the army were very frightened and rumors flew around. Please father Khan had to guard against it!"


    Murong Shun was acutely aware that since Murong Ding''s defeat, some Tuguhun kings could not help but look at him with an inexplicable meaning. Naturally, I know that the previous words have played a role, and I can''t help but be determined. At the moment, the two armies have been at war, and naturally there is no room for relaxation. What he has to do now is to try his best to show his talent and value in front of all the ministers, so that he can have more capital to bet.


    Fu Yun could not help but look at Murong Shun unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, Murong Shun noticed the hidden danger and took the initiative to put it forward. It was obvious that he chose to be close to Tuyuhun.


    At that moment, he looked at Murong Shun with appreciation and said coldly, "this is nonsense. I Tuyuhun has the protection of the grassland God. The God will certainly stand by me and order the soldiers who retreated from the third fort of Tuyuhun to join the escort King''s account. None of them can stay in the army. Other officers and soldiers are strictly prohibited from talking about it in the army, otherwise they will be severely punished."


    "Yes!"


    The king of Tuyuhun suddenly nodded his head.


    Fu Yun took a group of Tuyuhun kings out of the king''s tent and heard the majestic horse hiss behind him. Looking at the endless tents, he couldn''t help being heroic. With this soldier in hand, even if Li Jing was famous, he was confident to fight Li Jing.


    In the muddy castle.


    Li Jing and a group of generals discussed military affairs. Merton and Su dingfang had the lowest status and could only accompany the last seat.


    "It''s a great victory for our army to kill 5000 Tuyuhun soldiers and seize the third fort of Tuyuhun!" Cheng Yaojin opened with a smile.


    Duan Zhixuan immediately showed a happy look on his face. Although the firearm supervisor had the ability to break the city this time, he captured the first skill. Even the five thousand Tuyuhun soldiers in the array were mostly from his soldiers.


    "I believe your majesty will be happy when he receives the good news." Hou Junji Lang said.


    When the first battle was won, Li Jing was relieved, looked at Su dingfang and asked, "has the victory report to Chang''an city been sent?"


    Su dingfang slightly calculated: "this victory is reported by the vehicles and horses transporting grain. It doesn''t stop day and night. You can reach Chang''an City in three days at most."


    In three days, it''s equivalent to a five hundred mile rush, which is already quite fast.


    "Ink offering wine and firearm replenishment have been completed." Li Jing turned to Merton and asked.


    The most dazzling thing in this war is the firearm prison led by Merton. Even if Duan Zhixuan array cuts 5000, it can not cover up the glory of the firearm prison. The power of destroying the sky and the earth is beyond human resistance.


    After capturing the valley castle, the generals were shocked by the tragic situation of Tuyuhun soldiers after the explosion, even if they had been good at fighting for a long time.


    Once the city wall was broken, gunpowder shells bombarded it in turn, which directly scared off the famous Wang murongding. The people didn''t know about murongding''s injury, otherwise they would be more excited.


    "Tell the general that the ten thousand kilos of gunpowder bombs that have been made have been transported to support the next war." Merton said dispirited.


    He saw the tragedy of the war for the first time. The sour water in his stomach had been vomited clean and his whole body was like dehydration.


    The generals had no intention of laughing at Merton. When they experienced the war for the first time, they performed no better than Merton.


    "General, what are you waiting for? Now I''ll attack Fuyun''s nest and take him by surprise." Cheng Yaojin couldn''t wait.


    Other generals are also eager to try. They can''t wait to see Li Jing and Duan Zhixuan''s first skill, but they are greedy.


    However, Li Jing shook her head and said: "Fu Yun is old and cunning. At the beginning, several armies of the previous dynasty surrounded him and let Fu Yun run away. This time, if the momentum is not good, Fu Yun may repeat his old skills. We have only one chance to hit Fu Yun hard. If we miss it, I''m afraid Fu Yun will follow the previous dynasty''s example, repeat his old skills and escape into the 800 mile sea. At that time, it''s difficult to find him again."


    The generals could not help nodding. They would suffer if they beat the snake. Naturally, they knew that it was impossible to defeat Fu Yun in the first World War. If Fu Yun could be hit hard, I''m afraid the next battle would be easier.


    "When is the general going to attack and subdue Yun?" Hou Junji asked with a frown.


    Li Jing showed a trace of determination and said, "the first day of May!"


    "The first day of May!"


    "Tiangou eats the day!"


    For a moment, everyone''s eyes were focused on Merton.

 Chapter 537

    "The dog eats the sun. The general is sure that the dog will eat the sun on the first day of May." Hou Junji''s face changed.


    As for Merton''s prediction that there will be a dog eating day on the first day of May, the whole Chang''an city is noisy, and the generals have heard of it.


    Although the Taishi Bureau and some mathematicians calculated according to the calculation method of the Mohist school that there would be a dog eating the sun on the first day of May, it doesn''t matter if it''s normal, but the Tuyuhun of the western expedition is a major event of the country. If it''s based on an unconfirmed statement, it''s not like a child''s play.


    Cheng Yaojin Ning said again, "Merton, are you really sure there will be a dog eating the sun."


    Before Merton answered, Duan Zhixuan said first: "this is not a problem of uncertainty. If the fighter is delayed, no one can afford this responsibility."


    The generals nodded and turned their eyes back and forth in front of Li Jing and Merton.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    Li Jing knocked on the table and attracted everyone''s attention.


    "According to the secret agent''s report, the use of gunpowder bombs by the firearm supervisor caused bursts of panic in the Tuyuhun army. Tuyuhun, who believes in ghosts and gods, has been rumored that the Tang Dynasty has controlled God''s weapons. The secret agents of the imperial court have spread rumors that Tuyuhun offended God in Tuyuhun. You can imagine what would happen if Tiangou ate the sun when the two armies fought." Li Jing said with sharp eyes.


    Everyone took a breath. If so, wouldn''t the Tang army be like heaven''s help? They remembered that the Tang army God in front of them had always expected the enemy to be like God and planned to move later. If you don''t move, you will be killed in one blow.


    Time, place and people are in harmony. If Li Jing''s move is successful, he will directly seize the time. It will really help the Tang army.


    "Merton, you may be able to figure out when the solar eclipse will begin on the first day of May." Cheng Yaojin also couldn''t help thinking.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this boy can''t figure it out."


    The generals couldn''t help but be disappointed. If the battle between the two armies is over, or if the Tiangou eclipse has already begun before the battle, I''m afraid it''s of no use at all.


    Merton''s words turned: "although the boy can''t predict what time, he can know the occurrence of Tiangou eclipse half an hour in advance."


    "Seriously!" the generals said with surprise.


    Merton nodded: "When Tengu eclipses the sun, there is darkness between heaven and earth, which lasts for about half an hour. However, the world does not know that the real Tengu eclipses the sun, just like Tengu eclipses the moon. There are also initial losses, both food, what food, light generation and reunion. This process takes about an hour, but because the light of the sun is too strong, the naked eye can''t look directly at it, and can only detect the moment when the total solar eclipse is dark It''s too late. "


    Cheng Yaojin asked, "you mean you can see the beginning of the solar eclipse half an hour in advance."


    "The boy''s eyes are also mortal, and naturally can''t see it, but if you wear it, let alone me, anyone here can see it for the first time once the initial loss of the solar eclipse occurs." Merton said, taking out more than ten black glasses and handing them to the generals.


    "Sunglasses!" the generals were stunned. They were no strangers to sunglasses. Merton sent them as a greeting gift during the new year.


    "No! Ordinary sunglasses will still hurt your eyes when looking at the sun. This is a sun protection mirror specially developed by Mohists to watch the solar eclipse, so as to ensure that your generals can still look directly at the sun safely." Merton explained.


    Holding sun goggles, they looked at Li Jing who was not surprised. It was obvious that Li Jing had learned in advance.


    Li Jing said, "in this way, we can know the moment when Tiangou swallowed the sun half an hour in advance. This time is enough."


    I''m afraid there is much to be done in this matter.


    "This matter is decided by Ben alone, and all the consequences are borne by Ben alone." Li Jing looked around and said solemnly.


    "General, people can''t trust Merton. I can''t believe him. He dares to say anything, but he won''t talk big." Cheng Yaojin said proudly that he has a deep understanding of Merton''s magic. Many incredible things have turned decay into magic in Merton''s hands. More importantly, Merton has realized all the ink skills announced in the ink technology exhibition, which has never disappointed people.


    "It''s worth a bet!" to Merton''s surprise, Hou Junji took the initiative to agree.


    Other generals nodded slowly. The difference between the left and right was only a few days. If they gambled wrong, Tang Jun would not lose a bit. Once they gambled right, they would benefit greatly. Naturally, the generals realized this and nodded in succession.


    However, Li Daliang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "I heard that at the moment when Tiangou ate the sun, the sky was dark and dark. Most of our army''s generals were suffering from night blindness, but Tuyuhun''s generals did not. If it was darkness and our army''s generals and soldiers could not recognize things, what should we do!"


    The generals could not help but sink in their hearts. They immediately poured a basin of cold water on their heads. If the sky was dark at the moment when Tiangou ate the sun, the soldiers of the whole army could not see it. At that time, it might be a blessing or a curse?


    "I have no night blindness among the warriors of all Turkic departments. I am the vanguard of all Turkic departments in this war." Qixin Heli said proudly.


    Cheng Yaojin clenched his teeth and said, "at the moment when Tiangou ate the day, it was only half a quarter at most. If our army told the soldiers in advance, we would certainly be able to stick to it."


    Everyone''s heart sank and suddenly knew that even if they persevered, there would be great risks, and there would certainly be many casualties.


    "What''s the difficulty? This problem can be solved." Merton suddenly said something amazing, and suddenly everyone focused on Merton again.


    Li Daliang was pleasantly surprised and said, "is there a cure for night blindness?"


    Merton nodded and said, "night blindness is very common in the army. After a lot of diagnosis, doctor Mo Wu finally found out the cause of night blindness."


    "Mo Wu!" everyone could not help but look at Merton unexpectedly. Mo Wu was a doctor, but actually he was born in Mohism.


    "Somebody! Invite doctor Mo Wu!" Li Jing said in a voice.


    Night blindness in the army is a persistent disease in all dynasties. No matter which general has a headache, his contribution to solving the problem of night blindness in the army is unlimited.


    Soon, Mo Wu entered the military account. When he saw such a big scene for the first time, he trembled and said, "doctor Mo Wu paid a visit to all generals."


    "Mr. Mo Wu, please get up. I don''t know what medicine Mr. Mo Wu needs for the treatment of night blindness. I''ll ask the rear to whip it up immediately." Li Jingke said.

 Chapter 538

    Mo Wu took a look at Merton. With Merton''s encouragement, he took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "it doesn''t need drugs to treat night blindness, just diet."


    "Dietotherapy!" the people immediately looked at each other.


    Mo Wushen said in a deep voice: "after comparison, I found that none of the captured Tuyuhun soldiers had night blindness. Similarly, they had checked in all Turkic departments, and it was very common for our army to have night blindness."


    Li Daliang frowned and said, "is this the problem of people in one place? Maybe the water and soil in all parts of the grassland can avoid night blindness."


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "not so. The same people in Guanzhong, butchers, hunters and soldiers from superior families do not have night blindness. I believe all generals also do not have night blindness."


    The generals were stunned, ignored and nodded slowly. They really didn''t have night blindness.


    "If the soldiers without night blindness in our army were compared with Tuyuhun soldiers and Turkic soldiers, there would be only one thing in common."


    Mo paused for five times and said confidently, "that''s eating meat! Meat eaters don''t have night blindness, and those without meat have more night blindness. Rich families and grassland tribes don''t lack meat at all, but poor families in the mainland can''t eat meat several times a year, which is why many poor families in the army have night blindness!


    "Eat meat!"


    The generals immediately looked at each other. They could not imagine that the cause of night blindness was so simple.


    "Yes, it''s so simple. In the Mohist hospital, the boy once found that the people in Chang''an city are rich and rarely have night blindness, while the rural people are poor and often have night blindness. To be honest, the boy also had night blindness a year ago, and it''s quite serious. Even most of the whole Mohist village has night blindness. However, since the young master led the Mohist village to become rich, it''s not just the boy The night blindness was cured. No one took medicine in the whole Mojia village, and the night blindness gradually disappeared. The boy was still wondering secretly before. Now I think back, I''m afraid it''s the reason why Mojia village has no shortage of meat since then. "Mo Wu arched his hand towards Merton''s gratitude.


    Hearing that Mo Wu used a lot of facts to prove it, and taking himself and Mojia village as examples, they believed that the night blindness was really due to the lack of meat.


    At this moment, everyone can''t help but feel Hao Ran. The staple food in the army was millet and rice. If Merton hadn''t made compressed dry food, I''m afraid there would be very few oil and meat in the army.


    "But now that the war is imminent, is it still time to eat meat?" Li Daliang worried.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "it''s too late. To tell you the truth, I''m the first cook who makes compressed dry food and is responsible for cooking meat. His night blindness has been cured."


    The generals couldn''t help laughing. They naturally understood that the cook couldn''t die of hunger in a cheap year. Obviously, the cook didn''t eat less. No one could catch him when he ate. Now, I''m afraid the unlucky cook got better because of night blindness. The cook knocked Merton down. I don''t know whether he was lucky or had blood luck for eight years.


    "Now that the root cause has been found, it depends on the general''s reluctance to give up his capital." Merton looked at Li Jing.


    Li Jing took a swipe and supplied meat to 200000 troops, which was an astronomical figure. However, it was not a stingy time at present. With a wave of his hand, Li Jing said: "general Su, first kill the captured cattle and sheep in the third fort of Tuyuhun, first supply the troops for food, and at the same time, immediately supply a large number of cattle and sheep to all departments of the Qiang people in Dangxiang. Whether buying or changing, we must ensure the meat of the troops."


    As long as night blindness is solved, Li Jing''s plan is perfect. At this time, Li Jing will not be stingy at this time.


    Su dingfang immediately bowed and said, "yes!"


    Seeing this, Li Jing suddenly shouted, "OK, that''s it. All the troops should pay close attention to rectification. On the first day of May, our army and Tuyuhun will fight to the death."


    On the brick road from Lanzhou to Chang''an City, the military grain transport team has completely replaced the post station. During the transportation, people found that although the speed of four horses pulling the carriage is not as fast as riding, the victory is lasting. Especially when the grain transport team returns to Chang''an from Lanzhou City, the journey is doubled.


    In three days, the messenger of victory comfortably rested on the empty carriage for three days, and had arrived at Chang''an city. If it had been changed, I would have been half dead tired.


    The messenger untied a horse, turned over and rode on it, and galloped to Chang''an city.


    "Tuyuhun three Fort victory!"


    When the messenger of victory roared through Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city was boiling in an instant, and everyone rushed to tell each other and cheered loudly.


    "Well, the three Fort Tuyuhun came down overnight, and the damage was minimal. The firearm supervisor really disappointed me." Li Shimin said excitedly looking at the success report in the Tai Chi hall.


    "Congratulations, your majesty." the ministers also said with joy.


    Seeing that the process of the army was so smooth, the original worries of the ministers also disappeared.


    Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a mysterious smile: "this is just one of the joys. General Li also brought me some delicious food from Lanzhou. Please taste it and see how it tastes."


    "Delicious food? Delicious food sent from Lanzhou?" the ministers immediately looked at each other. They were in a high position. They had never tasted any delicious food, and it was the food three days ago, which made the ministers who lived in honor repel. Let alone the food three days later, it was the food next to each other. They had never eaten it since they were in a high position.


    Li Shimin smiled and did not speak, but waved his hand. Pound immediately took a tray to the ministers. On the tray, he saw a plate of compressed dry food.


    "Is this dry food?" Fang Xuanling picked up a palm sized compressed dry food and frowned. He was not young. For hard things, he had more heart than strength.


    Some old ministers in the court were also in a dilemma with compressed dry food in their hands.


    Li Shimin explained: "this is a new type of military food produced by Merton on the front line. It''s called compressed dry food. Although he''s just a small piece, it''s compressed by gravity. One piece is enough to satisfy him for a day."


    "Seriously?" Qin Qiong said with a shocked face. It''s incredible to hear that one can eat for a day. Other important officials also looked at a small piece of dry food in their hands.


    "If you can have enough to eat, don''t you know if you can eat one?" Li Shimin said.


    At that moment, Qin Qiong couldn''t wait to eat a few mouthfuls. She couldn''t help but brighten her eyes and said, "there''s meat. It tastes good."


    When other ministers saw this, they were relieved to eat. They nodded with satisfaction. The generals felt very full when they ate a whole piece, while some Wen ministers with small appetite could not eat half of it.


    "Sure enough!" Qin Qiong belched.


    "In this way, when our army goes on an expedition, the worry about military food will certainly be relieved." all the officials in the court are old officials who calm the world. Naturally, they know the importance of food and grass. Therefore, they can easily carry military food for a month. I just don''t know how long this compressed dry food can be guaranteed.


    "This is the compressed dry food ten days ago," Li Shimin said.


    "Ten days!" people''s eyes lit up. When they just ate, they didn''t feel any peculiar smell at all. It was quite delicious.


    "Not only that, according to Li Aiqing''s report, Merton boasted that the compressed dry food could be stored for at least two months, and it could be stored for half a year as wrapped in oil paper. Pound wrapped the rest of the compressed dry food in oil paper and gave it to Merton after he returned from the war." Li Shimin smiled cunningly.


    The ministers burst into laughter and thought of the look on Merton''s face after he returned to Chang''an City and ate this dry food for half a year.


    "Today, we wait for the Tang Dynasty, but it''s a double happiness!" Fang Xuanling opened with a happy smile.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "no, it''s three happiness. In the western expedition, doctor Mo Wu, who went with the army, has found a way to solve the night blindness in the army?"

 Chapter 539

    "Eating meat is the way to cure night blindness?"


    Hearing Li Shimin''s explanation of the cause of night blindness, the ministers looked at each other and said that they were high-ranking officials. Naturally, they didn''t think it was difficult to eat meat. However, it was not a simple thing to want the whole world to eat meat.


    "This is my sin. The people all over the world live in poverty and live frugally. They are reluctant to eat a mouthful of meat during the new year''s festival, so that they have a persistent disease." Li Shimin said heavily.


    Ordinary people don''t even have enough food. They eat porridge every day. If the food in their hands can be inserted with chopsticks, it''s dry rice. It''s a first-class good meal. This treatment is only available to the male labor force at home during busy farming. Eating meat is a luxury.


    The eldest sun Wuji was the best at guessing the holy meaning and repeatedly advised: "this is not your Majesty''s fault. Compared with the life of previous dynasties, the people of our Dynasty have been too rich."


    The ministers nodded and echoed.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "this is far from enough, otherwise the people will not suffer from this night blindness in nine out of ten."


    Compared with the miserable life of the people in other dynasties, the stable life of the Tang Dynasty is indeed better than a hundred times. However, it is impossible for everyone to eat meat.


    Mo Wu''s discovery this time directly raises the standard of whether the people are rich. I''m afraid it will be determined by the proportion of night blindness in the future. When the night blindness of the people all over the world disappears, I''m afraid we can really be regarded as rich in the world and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment.


    Su Lingnong, the big farmer, said proudly, "why is it difficult to eat meat? Now the method of artificial fish culture and artificial incubation technology have been popularized. Over time, there will be flocks of chickens and ducks in the world, and fish and meat will be placed on the table of ordinary people like meals."


    Quan Wanji retorted: "there are too many chickens and ducks. There is too much food to lose. At that time, no one will eat. How can we raise chickens and ducks."


    As we all know, it is impossible for chickens and ducks to grow and order by eating grass and insects alone. Food must be supplemented. Datang''s food is not rich. If there are too many chickens and ducks, I''m afraid they will compete with people for food rations!


    Su Lingnong snorted coldly: "before, I proposed to implement pesticides to increase grain production on a large scale. Unfortunately, I was obstructed by some short-sighted people. Now I feel that there is not enough food."


    Quan Wan Jidun groaned. Now it seems that it is really his fault. If Datang can''t eat enough food, he will naturally consider raising chickens and ducks, which will not be lack of meat..


    Li Shimin waved his big hand and said, "at this time, we will discuss it from the long term. Now it is approaching the wheat harvest season. This time, we will see the effect of all the pesticides used in the Mohist experimental field."


    The officials knew that it was only a matter of time before the imperial court could release the restrictions on pesticides under the threat of widespread night blindness in the Tang Dynasty.


    Su Lingnong turned his words and pointed out: "but speaking of it, raising chickens and ducks in captivity is indeed a waste of food. If I could have a place with abundant water and grass in Datang, specially raising cattle and sheep for the people of Datang, I''m afraid people all over the world would recover from night blindness without medicine!"


    The man Dynasty''s civil and military were stunned and looked at Su Lingnong in disbelief. All the people who could survive in the court were human beings. Naturally, they could hear Su Lingnong''s meaning. No one thought that Su Lingnong, a good man who never competed in the court, even pointed his sword at the land of Qinghai.


    Li Shimin also accidentally looked at Su Lingnong and said, "Su Aiqing, speak frankly."


    Su Lingnong said: "Although breeding alone can alleviate the problem of meat eating by the people all over the world, it is not conducive to the people''s livelihood. It will also lead to the rise of food prices in Datang and the people''s struggle to open up wasteland. This is contrary to your Majesty''s policy of governing the Yellow River. For today''s plan, the best way is for Datang to obtain the land of Qinghai, set up counties in imitation of the previous dynasty, and take the land of Qinghai as the land of Datang to graze cattle and horses The people of the Tang Dynasty transported meat. In this way, we can not only save domestic food, but also ensure that the people are not short of meat. Isn''t it killing two birds with one stone? "


    All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar. No one thought that the farmhouse, which is harmless to humans and animals, should put forward such a radical proposition in a vain attempt to annex the land of Qinghai.


    Quan Wanji suddenly changed his face and said, "Lord Su, our Dynasty is a state of etiquette. This expedition is forced to fight back. How can it be to annex other countries? In this way, what is the difference between our Dynasty and the violent Sui Dynasty? How can your majesty explain the name of Tian Khan to the ministries of the western regions?"


    Many Confucian scholars could not help but agree. After the elimination of Turks in the Tang Dynasty, they did not annex an inch of grassland. After defeating Tuyuhun in history, they also let Tuyuhun recover the country, which is dominated by the Confucian thought of benevolence and righteousness.


    Su Lingnong gave Quan Wanji a cold look and said, "it''s not allowed, that''s not allowed. The empty mouth and white teeth of Confucianism can cure the night blindness of tens of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty."


    Immediately Quan Wanji and others choked, and their faces were blue and red.


    "People are doing what heaven sees, and annexing other countries is a tyrannical thing. If our Tang Dynasty does such an act against heaven, it will be punished by heaven." Quan Wanji argued.


    Su Lingnong sneered: "Heaven''s curse. I don''t know whether the dog eating day is heaven''s curse. Soon it will be the first day of May. Then I''ll see whether the dog eating day is heaven''s curse or something destined to happen."


    The Minister of Manchu Dynasty''s eyes flashed slightly. At the ink technology exhibition, Merton announced that there would be a solar eclipse in early May. However, although it can be calculated according to Merton''s theory, more people still doubt it.


    A group of Confucian scholars immediately thought that if there was a solar eclipse on the first day of May, it meant that the solar eclipse could be calculated. I''m afraid the so-called scourge would be nonsense, and the blow to Confucianism would be fatal.


    "Well, we''ll discuss this matter later. It''s not too late to discuss it until the army wins and returns." Li Shimin waved his big hand to stop this debate. At the moment, the army is out. Datang is now mainly stable and fully supports the western expedition. Naturally, there can''t be chaos in the hall first.


    However, everyone knows that with the continuous overcoming of drought, locusts and floods, the effect of heaven and man induction on limiting imperial power is greatly reduced. If it is confirmed that Tiangou''s eating day is false, I''m afraid only the Earth Dragon is left to turn over.


    However, what they don''t know is that now Li Shimin began to doubt the Earth Dragon turn over and began to inquire about the truth of the Earth Dragon turn over.


    The ministers withdrew one after another, but their minds wanted to fly to the first day of May.


    Not only in the court hall, but also among the people, the same rumors are spreading, and everyone is looking forward to it.


    Time is like a white horse crossing the gap. With the passing of day by day, soon, April passed quietly,


    It''s the first day of May.

 Chapter 540

    When the first ray of sunshine hit Chang''an City, everyone subconsciously looked at the sun. However, except for being shaken by the sun, they couldn''t see anything clearly. They could only cover their astringent eyes and lower their heads.


    "Don''t look at it. You don''t really believe the nonsense of the Mohist school! You actually believe that there will be a dog eating the sun today." a Confucian scholar in green satirized when he saw that everyone looked up at the sun.


    A middle-aged rich merchant retorted, "this is Mohist, but he said at the ink technology exhibition that Mohist can even make rainbows. How can he deceive us?"


    "Yes, the Mohist family has made a promise, but if the Mohist family has said anything, it has never broken its promise." a young man proudly said, obviously admiring Merton.


    Even the scholars in Qingyi had the intention to refute, but they had to admit that everything Merton said had been realized. They argued: "how can the dog eat the sun compare with other things? I don''t believe that the Mohists have the ability to spy on the will of heaven."


    The people around could not help hesitating. Although they believed in mojiazi, after all, Tiangou''s eclipse of the sun was too mysterious, and they had no confidence in their hearts!


    Suddenly, a Hawking broke the deadlock. I saw a black Mohist child Hawking in the street: "the latest Mohist product, sun goggles, ensures that you can watch the dog eclipse all the way without hurting your eyes."


    "Sun goggles! What is watching the dog eat the sun all the way?" the middle-aged rich merchant asked curiously.


    "This gentleman, I don''t know. This day''s dog eclipse is the same as the day''s dog eclipse. It can also be divided into five steps: initial loss, eating already, eating very much, light generation and reunion. Just because the sun''s light is too strong, people can''t see it with the naked eye. However, if you wear this sun protective lens, you can look directly at the sun and ensure that you can see the whole process of the day''s dog eclipse without leaving a trace of regret." the children of the Mohist School explained.


    "It''s the same as Tengu eating the moon!" they suddenly realized that the moon can naturally look directly. They naturally observed the whole process of Tengu eating the moon. However, no one has ever observed the whole process of Tengu eating the sun, which naturally makes people itch.


    "How much is a pair?" the middle-aged rich merchant asked eagerly.


    "A pair of five hundred sunscreens," said the children of the Mohist school.


    "So expensive?" the crowd was startled.


    Five hundred Wen is half a dollar. It''s not a small amount.


    The children of Mohism had expected this reaction for a long time. They smiled and said, "this is the most professional and best eye protection. It is extremely rare and naturally expensive. However, if you are too expensive, there are sunglasses with poor effect."


    The Mohist children took out a flat mirror with a big palm and put it in front of the people. They took out a cup of prepared ink and evenly applied it on the lens. They said, "if you apply the ink evenly, you can observe the solar eclipse. However, you can''t look directly at the sun for a long time. You''d better have a five breath rest to ensure that your eyes are carefree. This lens only needs 50 Wen."


    "Fifty Wen!" some wealthy families and ordinary people can''t help but accept the price, and ink is also a common thing, so it''s not too difficult to operate.


    The Confucian scholar in green clothes looked at the crowd and couldn''t help but turn his eyes. He deliberately broke down and said, "wait, who knows if there is a Tiangou eclipse today. If the Mohist school is wrong, isn''t our money a hundred flowers?"


    The Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi immediately gave everyone a meal. He hesitated. Although the lenses are much cheaper than protective glasses, fifty Wen is not a small amount. Naturally, they don''t want to spend this wronged money.


    The children of the Mohist School looked coldly at the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi and said proudly, "only the Mohist school can make glass lenses in the whole Tang Dynasty. If there is no Tiangou food day today, the Mohist school will return all your money intact."


    With the guarantee of the children of the Mohist school, people can rest assured that in Chang''an City, the reputation of the Mohist school is a lever. Naturally, people are not afraid of the Mohist School''s default.


    The Mohist children also said: "of course, if you don''t want to spend money, you can also. Today''s ink technology exhibition is open all day. If you have time, you can go to the ink technology exhibition in the south of the city. You can watch the Tiangou eclipse for free. However, there are too many people. You may only have a short time to watch it. If you buy Sun goggles, you can watch the eclipse all the way. You can consider it yourself."


    "South of the city ink technology exhibition for free?" some poor people couldn''t help but move. Fifty Wen is not a small number. Naturally, if you can save it, you can save it.


    Some people with rich families naturally don''t want to be crowded with others, just to watch a small meeting.


    "Give me a pair of sunglasses!" the middle-aged rich merchant took out a piece of silver and said.


    "Give me a lens."


    "I want a lens, too."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a while, people with rich families snapped up one after another, and soon sold out a lot of money.


    Seeing that the children of the Mohists soon sold a lot of money, the Confucian in Qingyi was jealous. The Confucian seemed bright. As long as he was not an official, he was very poor and had no oil and water at all. He added one piece of all the property of the Confucian in Qingyi and didn''t have as much money as the children of the Mohists. How could he balance his mind.


    However, what he didn''t know was that such Mohist children were everywhere in the major cities of the Tang Dynasty. Merton had long arranged the Tiangou eclipse day, and the sudden reversal of day and night would naturally cause panic. If people observed the Tiangou eclipse day a little bit and accurately waited for the moment when the sun was completely swallowed, I''m afraid their fear would be greatly reduced.


    This is also the reason why the sensation caused by Tengu''s lunar eclipse is very different from that caused by Tengu''s solar eclipse. People only fear the unknown.


    "This is the protective lens that can directly observe the dog eclipse." Princess Changle picked up a dark sun protective lens and curiously put it on her eyes, but found that she could only see the scene five steps away, but looking at the sun was not dazzling at all.


    Princess Changle has been very interested in ophthalmology since she developed eye exercises to treat myopia. This is also Merton''s intentional guidance. He knows that many respiratory diseases are very infectious. He doesn''t want Princess Changle to be entangled with diseases.


    At the moment, Princess Changle specializes in ophthalmology except for the Qi diseases of empress changsun.


    "Yes, my brother-in-law also sent us a pair." Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang proudly held a small number of sun goggles.


    Although Merton was thousands of miles away, his practice with Princess Changle was not interrupted. Instead, a letter every three days was more convenient than one in the previous ten days. He had a heated conversation and mixed oil with honey.


    Of course, I don''t forget to please Li Shimin. This time, Merton sent sunglasses to the palace, and the princess and prince in the palace had at least one,


    Li Zhi proudly put on his sun goggles and looked at the sun. Suddenly, he was stunned. He found that the sun, which was like a disk, seemed to be missing a side.


    Li Zhi trembled and pointed to the missing side of the sun. He was surprised and said, "Tiangou ate the sun!"

 Chapter 541

    "Seriously!" Princess Changle suddenly paused, quickly picked up the sun goggles in her hand and looked at the sky. Sure enough, she found that the sun had lost money.


    "It''s true!" Princess Changle said in surprise.


    Although she believed in Merton, Princess Changle couldn''t help but be proud of it when it was really confirmed that Tiangou eclipse could be predicted.


    "Brother-in-law, it''s really powerful! It''s amazing that Tiangou wants to eat the sun in advance!" Jinyang princess also exclaimed with her mouth open.


    Li Zhi did not know where to find a gong and said excitedly, "no, if we come to knock the Gong! Scare away Tiangou and save the sun."


    "Good!" Princess Jinyang said excitedly. She asked her mother herself yesterday. If there was a dog eating day, people would beat gongs and drums to drive away the dog.


    "Dangdang!" soon there was a cheerful sound of gongs and drums in the back palace.


    "Pound, what''s the matter? How can the palace be so noisy!" Li Shimin and his courtiers handled their official business in the Tai Chi hall. When they heard the sound of gongs and drums, they couldn''t help but look uneasy.


    "Tell the emperor that the dog eating day has begun, and the prince and princess in the harem are beating gongs and drums to scare away the dog." pound hurried to explore and quickly came back with an incredible face.


    Suddenly, it was quiet in the middle of the court, and there was a sound of needle dropping.


    Li Shimin suddenly stood up, his voice trembled and said, "you mean, Tiangou eclipse has begun."


    The Manchu civil and military also turned their heads one after another and looked at the still bright sunshine outside the Tai Chi hall.


    Pound also took a deep breath, nodded and said, "tell your majesty that he has lost money at the beginning. At the moment, he can''t see it with the naked eye. He needs a sun shield to see it."


    Hearing Pound''s affirmative answer, the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help taking a breath. They didn''t expect that the Mexican family made a prophecy, and there was a real dog eating the sun today.


    Li Shimin looked at the incredible ministers with the same face. He turned his mind and said with a smile: "it''s just right that I have a batch of sun protective glasses sent by Merton. If we don''t stop working for half a day today, we will enjoy the wonders of heaven and earth together."


    All the courtiers in the court are human spirits. Hearing that Li Shimin called the heavenly dog eating the sun a wonder of heaven and earth, he immediately noticed the change of Li Shimin''s attitude.


    The eldest sun Wuji said happily, "the emperor is wise. The old minister has been poor all his life. He hasn''t seen such a grand scene. Now he has fulfilled his wish, which is enough to comfort his life!"


    The ministers secretly scolded Chang sun Wuji for not being cheeky and flattering. They sometimes tacitly understood the restriction of imperial power. However, they did not expect Chang sun Wuji to change so quickly.


    As soon as Chang sun Wuji opened his mouth, many ministers rushed to agree. Some generals didn''t believe in the induction of heaven and man, and they couldn''t wait one by one.


    Outside the Tai Chi hall,


    Li Shimin and a group of ministers had a pair of sun goggles in their hands. They looked at the growing sun at the beginning of the loss one by one, and couldn''t speak for a long time.


    If before, all the ministers would be panicked once they learned that the Tiangou eclipse had occurred. The ministers admonished the emperor and asked the emperor to reflect on himself. However, this time, all the ministers were as if they had been strangled by the neck.


    Li Shimin smiled and asked, "do you think this dog eclipse is a warning from heaven or a natural phenomenon like a rainbow?"


    The ministers immediately ignored one eye and saw Li Chunfeng of the Taishi Bureau. They hurriedly said, "this is the responsibility of the Taishi Bureau. How can ministers guess the will of heaven."


    In an instant, everyone focused on Li Chunfeng.


    Li Chunfeng immediately looked bitter. The Taishi Bureau recorded astronomical phenomena, but he could not avoid it. He had to bow down and say, "according to the records of the past dynasties of the Taishi Bureau, this Tiangou eclipse day does occur periodically, not according to the standards of emperors, but the book of changes." Lao Tzu also said, "it''s a kind of providence that heaven and earth go round and round."


    Li Chunfeng is worthy of being the leader of Taoism in later generations. He not only preserved the Taoist theory, but also picked the emperor from the dog eating the sun.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he couldn''t help looking at Li Chunfeng with appreciation. At that time, he waved his big hand and said, "send the order and inform the people of the whole city. After half an hour, there will be food every day. Let Chang''an County Government appease the people and there can be no unrest."


    "Yes!" the bodyguard hurried away immediately.


    In Chang''an City, without notice, everyone rushed to the street and watched the visions of heaven and earth.


    There are many sun protection glasses and lenses sold by Mohists. Many people look at the sky with wonder with their purchased observation tools.


    Even if my eyes can''t stand it, I lower my head slowly, but I still hold on to the sun goggles in my hands. The people next to me are anxious, itching and regretful. If only I had bought one at the beginning, even if I didn''t buy a pair of sun goggles of 500 Wen, I could buy a lens of 50 Wen!


    "By the way, I heard that the ink technology exhibition can watch the solar eclipse for free. Why don''t we go to the ink technology exhibition." a citizen suggested that in an instant, many people moved in their hearts and rushed to the south of the city.


    However, they did not know that there were already a large number of people in the ink technology exhibition in the south of the city. The long prepared ink technology exhibition implemented the method of queuing to watch the solar eclipse.


    But this time there were too many people, and the people of Chang''an directly lined up at the gate of Nancheng.


    "Uncle Li, what should I do? Even if I use protective glasses, it''s not enough!" Mo Da ran over in a hurry and sweating. Li Yi, who came to host, asked for help. Even if everyone watches the five breath time, I''m afraid these people can''t finish it by the end of the solar eclipse!


    Li Yi looked at Mo Da Dao discontentedly: "how do you do things when the young master is not here!"


    Mo Da smiled bitterly and said, "I didn''t expect so many people!"


    Li Yi also frowned. The solar eclipse can''t recover every day than the rainbow. After today, I''m afraid many people can''t see it all their life. Suddenly, Li Yi''s eyes lit up and pointed to a reflective corridor nearby: "what''s that?"


    Mo Da replied, "this is the gallery where Mohists are preparing to exhibit glass. The top is made of flat glass."


    Li Yi immediately said, "immediately paint all the glass with ink and guide the crowd through the corridor to watch the solar eclipse."


    "The village head is wise!" Murdoch praised Dalian. In this way, it has become a long large piece of ink coated lenses.


    When the people watching the eclipse walked through the long corridor, the speed of the queue suddenly accelerated several times. Some people who had watched the eclipse were amazed and nostalgic. They even started queuing up again to watch it for the second time.


    "Tengu is going to swallow the sun."


    With a cry of surprise, the sky suddenly became dark, and the whole Chang''an city was shrouded in darkness.


    In the dark sky, a bright star appeared impressively in the sight of everyone. Suddenly, the birds thought that night was coming and went back to their nests.


    Day and night are confused and Yin and yang are reversed.


    Everyone was shocked. Looking at this vision, everyone would have been panic stricken before. However, at the moment, everyone was only amazed, but there was no panic. Even if children beat gongs and drums, it would only add some anger.


    The dog eating the sun is no longer a frightening thing, but a wonder of heaven and earth.

 Chapter 542

    On the Qinghai prairie thousands of miles away, two huge armies are engaged in a soul stirring game.


    "Tell Khan! The Tang army stopped thirty miles away!" a Tuyuhun messenger rushed to Fuyun in gold armor.


    "Thirty miles away!" Fu Yun frowned.


    This distance is just the distance of the cavalry sprint. If the Tuyuhun army attacks now and runs 30 miles, it will be trapped by people and horses, and will be hit head-on by the Tang army.


    "What is the old man Li Jing making up his mind?" Tuoba chici, the leader of the party, faintly felt a bad feeling and said irritably.


    Li Jing''s reputation is so great that anyone who plays against him has to be careful. This time, his Tuoba tribe and Tuyuhun have become grasshoppers on the same rope. If he is defeated, the Tuoba tribe will certainly bear the anger of the Tang Dynasty, and its end can be imagined.


    Fu Yun looked at Tuoba Chizhi''s resignation discontentedly. This time, in addition to Tuoba tribe, only a few remote Qiang tribes supported Tuyuhun, which is far from Fu Yun''s previous expectations.


    But now it is the time of employment. Fu Yun is not convenient to be too harsh. He can only solicit Tuoba chici.


    "In my opinion, it must be old Li Jing who is afraid. I Tuyuhun more than 200000 warriors. I am skilled in bow and horse. If I can''t hit it, I can escape far. I can attack and retreat and defend. I have been in an invincible position." the king of Tianzhu patted his round belly and preached.


    For a long time, he was the king of Tianzhu who desperately advocated the looting of Datang in front of Fu Yun. Every time, he used the looted wealth to please Fu Yun. Naturally, Fu Yun was extremely satisfied and regarded the king of Tianzhu as his confidant.


    However, in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty, King Tianzhu is a thorn in the flesh. If Tuyuhun is defeated, Fu Yun may live in Chang''an like Jieli Khan, but he will die.


    When Fu Yun saw the strong soldiers behind him, he couldn''t help showing a proud look on his face. Thirty years ago, he experienced the escape of a lost dog. The Sui army followed him everywhere. So far, he woke up in a nightmare. He didn''t want to do it again.


    "Send orders to all armies to save horsepower, and the whole army will press on." Fu Yun was in high spirits and suddenly shouted.


    Suddenly, the whole Tuyuhun army moved forward slowly and went towards the oppression of the Tang army.


    Thirty miles away, troops and horses of the Tang Dynasty gathered.


    "Inform general! The Tuyuhun cavalry has begun to move towards our army." a scout reported in a hurry.


    "Fu Yun can''t wait!" Li Jing frowned.


    "What should I do then? Why hasn''t the ink offering wine and the dog eating day started yet? Is your calculation wrong?" Li daoyan raised his sun goggles and looked at the sun still like a disk, frowning and questioning.


    Other generals also looked at Merton with questioning eyes. Among all the plans made by Li Jing, the most important link is that there will be a Tiangou eclipse today. However, at this moment, there is still no Tiangou eclipse.


    Merton shook his head and said, "naturally, you can''t be wrong. At the end, you can make a military order."


    The people''s eyes suddenly coagulated. The military order is the most severe military order in the army. If they can''t do it, they will have the crime of beheading.


    Seeing Merton''s assurance, Li Jing naturally believed it for some points. She couldn''t help regretting: "it''s too late. Fuyun won''t give us any more time."


    The generals could not help but feel sorry. Although the Tang army was not afraid of any opponent in the face-to-face battle, after World War I, although the Tang army could win, the loss must be very heavy.


    "Someone..."


    Just as Li Jing was about to order the war, Merton''s surprised voice said, "general, wait a minute. I will be lucky to live up to my life."


    The crowd suddenly looked up and saw Merton holding up his sun goggles and looking up at the sun in the sky.


    "Could it be..."


    The generals were delighted and quickly picked up the sun goggles in their hands,


    Sure enough, the sun, which had not changed by the naked eye, was surprisingly missing a piece under the sun protective mirror.


    "Good!" they were pleasantly surprised.


    Li Jing looked at Merton with a strange eye, and Lang said, "come and give orders to the three armies. Half an hour later, there will be food for the sun. The destiny is in the Tang Dynasty. This battle will be won."


    Soon, as the herald left, cheers came from the army.


    "The destiny is in Tang Dynasty. We will win this battle."


    "The destiny is in Tang Dynasty, this battle will be won!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In an instant, Tang Jun''s momentum reached its peak.


    "Attack!"


    Li Jing took out her long sword and suddenly shouted.


    In an instant, the drums thundered, and the Tang army was advancing rapidly. The spitting army immediately noticed the movement of the Tang army and accelerated the speed.


    Thirty miles!


    Twenty miles!


    Ten miles!


    Five miles!


    "Cavalry attack!"


    When the two armies were five miles apart, Fu Yun and Li Jing ordered.


    "Da Da!"


    The whole earth shook under the bombardment of millions of horseshoes.


    The two torrents collided with each other. Suddenly, blood flowed and limbs were broken. At this moment, all tactics and tricks were abandoned. The real fight was strength.


    In terms of individual soldiers, the Tang army with the benefit of armour has an absolute advantage. The machetes of Tuyuhun soldiers do not pose a great threat to the Tang army in full armor.


    Under the new steel knives of the Tang army, the leather armor of Tuyuhun soldiers was almost useless. As soon as they came into contact, Tuyuhun cavalry immediately suffered heavy losses.


    In terms of military strength, Tuyuhun had the upper hand.


    "Toot!"


    As soon as the horn sounded, the formation of Tuyuhun army changed. Suddenly, a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry rushed to the infantry array of Tang army.


    Spit on the high platform.


    Fu Yun looked at the Datang infantry square with a cold face. The cavalry is the natural enemy of the infantry. From the beginning, he did not focus on the Datang cavalry, but put the most elite Armored Cavalry on the attacking infantry. As long as the Tuyuhun cavalry spread the Datang infantry, the victory of the war is in sight.


    "Khan is wise. King Gaochang is a famous warrior in Tuyuhun. This move will surely break the army of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop." King Tianzhu complimented that King Murong Xiaojun, king of Gaochang, is famous in Tuyuhun. Tuyuhun''s great momentum mostly depends on King Murong Xiaojun of Gaochang.


    Fu Yun looked at the Tuyuhun cavalry pushing like a tide, and couldn''t help showing a trace of pride. He used his own strengths to attack his weaknesses. Naturally, he wouldn''t fight with the Tang cavalry in armor,


    "Hold on, hold on!" Cheng Yaojin suddenly shouted in the infantry formation,


    The infantry in heavy armour looked at the tumuhun cavalry. They were extremely frightened and sweated, but they still didn''t retreat at all. They suddenly stepped forward and held up their weapons.


    In the regiment escort of the left leading guard, the firearm supervisors quietly guarded the catapult. The gunpowder shells had already been loaded and looked at Merton''s waiting order.


    "Five hundred steps!"


    Xue Rengui couldn''t help wiping the sweat nervous way.


    "As long as the Tuyuhun cavalry takes 400 steps! Drop gunpowder bullets immediately." Merton said suddenly.


    "But it''s almost impossible." Xue Rengui was stunned and didn''t understand.


    "What else do you need? The farther you hit, the better!" Merton shouted.


    Xue Rengui suddenly realized that the cavalry charge was so dense that there was no need to aim.


    Soon the Tuyuhun cavalry had taken 400 steps. Xue Rengui suddenly shouted, "put the firearm prison!"


    "Buzz!"


    Suddenly, ten gunpowder bombs flew out of the Chinese army and flew to the Tuyuhun cavalry touched by ten thousand horses.


    "Catapult, avoid!"


    Murong Xiaojun immediately shouted. He didn''t expect that the catapult used only when attacking the city was used by the Tang army in the field.


    Fu Yun, who has been paying attention to the trend of the Tang army, also saw this scene. He didn''t care. He was just a dozen stones. For the whole army, he was just scratching his boots.


    However, the next scene immediately made him fall into an ice cave. Merton put 50 kg of gunpowder bullet this time, and cut off the lead very insidiously. When the gunpowder bullet just flew to the top of the Tuyuhun cavalry, the lead burned out.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom... Boom!"


    With the soaring flame, there were ten loud sounds like thunder, and gunpowder bombs exploded over the heads of Tuyuhun cavalry. The huge sound directly overshadowed the fighting sound of the whole audience. For a moment, the whole audience couldn''t help but be shocked.


    "God''s weapon!" Fuyun''s old eyes suddenly increased. Is this the God''s weapon controlled by the Tang army as mentioned by the famous King murongding.


    Standing on the high platform, he saw clearly that under the ten loud noises, the huge shock wave directly caused many Tuyuhun cavalry to fly upside down. The whole Tuyuhun charging array suddenly appeared a blank of ten steps, and at least 300 elite cavalry in armor were directly killed.


    What''s more, with the loud noise, a large number of war horses were frightened and panicked, and the whole charging array was immediately disrupted. Many Tuyuhun cavalry were bumped down by the war horses, and their life and death were unknown.


    More Tuyuhun soldiers were even more frightened. It had been rumored in the army that Datang had controlled the weapons of the God. Tuyuhun must have been abandoned by the God this time. Now he saw the power of gunpowder bombs with his own eyes, and fear spread in his heart like a plague.


    "Keep going! Don''t stop!"


    Murong Xiaojun is a fierce general in the army. His riding skills are amazing, so he can stabilize the horse. Naturally, he knows that he can''t stop at this time. The filling of the catapult is too slow. As long as he rushes to kill the past, let alone the weapon of the God, even if the God is there, he dares to carry a knife to cut.


    Under Murong Xiaojun''s organization, the surviving Tuyuhun soldiers continued to charge, but this time the indomitable momentum has disappeared.


    Li Jing naturally observed this scene and couldn''t help showing a proud look. "General, do you need to reinforce the left leading guard?" a soldier worried.


    Li Jing shook her head and said confidently, "don''t worry, with Cheng Yaojin, Tuyuhun can''t get any cheap."


    Infantry is just a flaw that Li Jing deliberately revealed to Fu Yun, and this flaw will attract a steady stream of Tuyuhun cavalry to die. Fu Yun, an old fox, thinks that Tang''s infantry are easy to deal with, but he doesn''t know that at the moment, Tang''s infantry have long been reborn, and the cavalry can only be beaten in front of him.


    Three hundred steps!


    Cheng Yaojin saw the Tuyuhun cavalry running. His face was cold and said, "three shots, the first row!"


    Suddenly, the crossbows and arrows of the divine arm crossbow flew to Tuyuhun''s cavalry like a dense rain. This time, Cheng Yaojin led not only 500 crossbow soldiers, but a full 3000 crossbow soldiers. Thousands of arrows flew out each time. Under the power of powerful mechanisms, even Tuyuhun''s soldiers with amazing riding skills hid their bodies on the side of the horse, but the powerful crossbow was easy to shoot into the horse, The Tuyuhun cavalry who charged in an instant immediately turned upside down.


    However, Tuyuhun also made a heavy bet. Cavalry poured in everywhere and attacked the infantry position of the Tang army at all costs. Even in the third section, the power of attack was amazing. Regardless of losses, Tuyuhun cavalry still forcibly attacked the front of the whole left leading guard.


    "Stranger swordsman out!" Cheng Yaojin shouted coldly.


    "Brush!"


    The snow-white sword came out. The stranger in heavy armor in front suddenly took a step and bumped into the Tuyuhun cavalry. All the strangers were selected from the burly soldiers in the army. Wearing dozens of kilograms of heavy armor, they unexpectedly withstood the impact of the Tuyuhun cavalry.


    I saw the strange swordsman wearing heavy armor and falling with the knife in his hand. He cut the Tuyuhun soldiers under his horse one after another. The Tuyuhun cavalry fought back one after another. The whole battlefield suddenly fell into a stalemate, and everyone was fighting for survival.


    "Let go!"


    With Merton''s loud drink, another round of gunpowder bombs suddenly hit the soldiers of Tuyuhun. With the fire and huge roar, the whole battlefield was shocked again.


    Fu Yun painfully closed his eyes. This time, in order to impact the infantry position, Tuyuhun''s cavalry were concentrated in front of the battle. It was too dense. I''m afraid the loss this time was even heavier than that in the first round.


    "Kill!"


    A group of cavalry suddenly emerged from behind the Tang Dynasty. Tuoba chici led the Dangxiang cavalry to the back of the Tang army.


    Li Jing snorted coldly, waved the flag, and immediately Qixin He Li led the Turkic cavalry to meet up. The two groups of grassland cavalry immediately entangled together.


    Even if a small group of cavalry raided the rear array of the Tang army, it was quickly blocked by the Macedonian array of Su dingfang.


    Li Jing looked at the glued battlefield, picked up the sun protection mirror in her hand, saw only a trace of the sun, and couldn''t help holding the wisdom bead: "Fu Yun, this time you''re wrong, the real battlefield is in the sky."


    As Li Jing''s voice just fell, the sky became darker and darker, the sun disappeared, and the day suddenly turned into night.


    "Tiangou eats the day!"


    All the Tuyuhun cavalry immediately panicked. It was not just the Tang Dynasty. In Tuyuhun, they also thought that Tiangou eating the sun was the most unknown thing.


    "Did the grassland abandon us?" a group of Tuyuhun soldiers heard that the Tang army used weapons like gods, and then Tiangou ate the sun. Many people immediately panicked.


    "The destiny is in Tang Dynasty. We will win this battle."


    The soldiers of the Tang army who had been informed long ago and had cured night blindness were demoralized. With the hazy coronal light, they attacked their opponents again.


    "Shoot again!" Merton shouted suddenly in the dark.


    Accompanied by a huge sound, ten dazzling flames exploded from the Tuyuhun army again. The huge flames were particularly conspicuous in the dark, which was called the last straw to crush the Tuyuhun army.


    The first to flee was Murong Xiaojun''s department. After several rounds of gunpowder bombardment, Murong Xiaojun''s subordinates had already tightened their strings. Coupled with the impact of Tiangou eclipse, they collapsed first.


    Soon, with the collapse of Murong Xiaojun''s Department, the whole Tuyuhun army immediately fell like a mountain and began to flee.

 Chapter 543

    Under the darkness of heaven and earth and the roar of gunpowder shells again and again, it was like ghosts and gods roaring. The rumors spread in the army quickly spread in everyone''s hearts.


    The more primitive the place is, the more it believes in the theory of ghosts and gods. In Tuyuhun, Buddhism is very popular. Coupled with the primitive wizard divination, the theory of ghosts and gods can be said to penetrate into all aspects of Tuyuhun. Even this time, voyun also asked the Tuyuhun wizard for divination,


    The result of divination is that with the help of the grassland God, Tuyuhun will win the battle. At the moment, Fuyun wants to cut the wizard thousands of knives. Even Tiangou comes to help the Tang army. He dares to say that the grassland God is on his side.


    During the day, Fuyun naturally has a chance to save. However, the world is dark, and Fuyun can''t start even if he wants to mobilize the army. In addition, Tuyuhun''s soldiers are lax in discipline. It''s OK to fight with the wind, but the Armored Cavalry, rock solid infantry, and night blindness are mostly improved when Li Jing supplies meat at any cost. They still kill the enemy as usual in the dark, which makes Tuyuhun''s officers and soldiers downwind immediately. Seeing that Tuyuhun''s flight is inevitable,


    "Khan, retreat! Keep the green mountains and don''t be afraid of no firewood!" the king of Tianzhu took advantage of the fire of the fire medicine bullet and couldn''t help but take risks.


    "Blow the golden horn! The whole army retreats!"


    Fu Yun didn''t hold on to the advice of King Tianzhu for too long. If he couldn''t hit it, he would escape. This is the usual tactic of the grassland cavalry tribe. At the moment, the world is dark, which is just conducive to their retreat.


    "Dudu!"


    The bugle for the retreat of the Tuvalu army sounded, and a large number of fighting Tuyuhun cavalry began to withdraw from the battlefield.


    "If you want to run away, you are waiting for this moment!" when Li Jing heard the horn, a smile rarely appeared on her dignified face,


    At the firearm supervisor''s position, Merton heard the bugle of Tuyuhun cavalry retreat and jumped up. He was excited and said to a group of firearm supervisors: "brothers, you can feast your eyes today. You have not only seen the wonders of heaven and earth, but also the most beautiful man-made beauty in the world."


    Merton grabbed a torch and directly ignited a lead next to a square carton. If later generations are here, they must be able to find that this item is very familiar. It is a common fireworks in later generations.


    "Bang!"


    With a dull hum, a bright light suddenly flew into the dark sky and pierced the darkness in an instant.


    "Boom!"


    The light spot suddenly burst and burst into a dazzling, intoxicating light.


    Then the second, third and fourth fireworks soared into the sky and burst in the air one after another. The whole battlefield was like day.


    Li Jing and other generals looked at the fireworks blooming all over the sky in mid air and shone the figures of fighting sound on the ground, which looked particularly ferocious.


    "In the way of light and shadow, Mohism is well-known to be the only one in the world." Li Jing exclaimed with colorful colors reflected in her eyes.


    From Li Jing''s perspective, we can naturally see that the military role of fireworks can not only be used in night warfare, but also be used by scouts. In case of an alarm, fireworks will be set off, which will certainly not give the enemy any chance to sneak attack.


    The soldiers of the Tang army were bright in front of them. They were immediately in high spirits and bravely killed the enemy with the light of fireworks.


    Chumo rides a big horse and suddenly shoots a panicked Tuyuhun cavalry off his horse. Qin Huaiyu, who has a tacit understanding, suddenly drives the horse forward and cuts the cavalry off.


    "Kill!" Wei Chi Baolin suddenly made a sprint with a horse in his hand and stabbed a Tuyuhun soldier who wanted to sneak attack.


    The three men immediately joined together, looked at the fireworks all over their heads, and said in the same voice: "I knew that Merton had a back move."


    "Merton will certainly make great achievements this time, and we can''t fall behind." Qin Huaiyu''s several months of military career has already dissipated his childishness and said with a firm face.


    The three looked at each other and saw a group of Tuyuhun cavalry gathering with the help of the light of fireworks. At the same time, they urged the horse to sprint.


    "Kill!"


    The three suddenly drank and rushed several times to their Tuyuhun cavalry, and the Tuyuhun cavalry who had just gathered to resist immediately collapsed again.


    Such same scenes can be found everywhere on the whole battlefield. For a while, Tuyuhun cavalry were killed and injured seriously.


    "Poof! Got caught!"


    Fu Yun immediately sprayed a mouthful of blood. If he didn''t order the retreat, he wouldn''t have such heavy losses if he stubbornly survived the solar eclipse. When the solar eclipse was over, he naturally had plenty of opportunities to withdraw the general team.


    He originally thought that he could withdraw his troops and horses in the dark and slowly plan it. The Tang army still had such a move. However, his withdrawal completely consumed the last trace of resistance of the Tuyuhun army.


    Tuyuhun described himself as a wolf, and Tang Jun was a sheep. However, his position suddenly changed at the moment. Tang Jun immediately became a fierce wolf, while Tuyuhun became a cowardly sheep. No matter how many sheep there are, they will only be slaughtered in the end.


    "Armed with the weapons of the gods, the heavenly dogs help to eat the sun and have divine skills to dispel the darkness. Could it be that Tang Jun really has the help of the gods." Fu Yun looked at the gorgeous fireworks rising into the sky like fierce killing opportunities, and countless Tuyuhun warriors wailed under the light.


    "Withdraw, continue to withdraw!"


    Fu Yun roared fiercely. At the moment, he was unable to return to the sky. For this reason, he had to escape from this dark place as far as possible and to a place where Tang Jun couldn''t find it.


    This time, he will go back to the old road of 30 years ago, and once again embark on the road of escape, from the high wolf king to a homeless, defeated and wandering wolf king.


    Last time, he was able to make a comeback under the pursuit of the Sui army. This time, he was able to escape in the hands of the Tang army.


    Sure.


    At the moment, the Tang army attacked all the way. Even a group of soldiers also took a kitchen knife and pulled over a Tuyuhun war horse who had lost its master and turned over to urge the front line immediately.


    The firearm prison has become an alien in the whole battlefield. In the firearm prison belief instilled by Merton, as long as it is not at the critical moment of life and death, the firearm prison will never carry a knife to the battlefield, because their weapons are no longer swords and guns, but gunpowder with power ten or 100 times more than swords.


    In front of the firearm surveillance position, fireworks rushed into the air. Above the sky, the solar eclipse soared, and the sky was dark; In the middle of the sky, fireworks are brilliant and bright. On the earth, hundreds of thousands of cavalry are fighting with each other.


    On this grassland, the visions of heaven and earth and artificial beauty complement each other, the explosion sound of fireworks resonates with the sound of fighting, and the coexistence of light, darkness and blood color has become the eternal three primary colors of this heaven and earth.


    "I''m afraid this is the most beautiful fireworks ever!"


    Merton was obsessed with looking at the once-in-a-million-year-old beauty, and he made it himself.

 Chapter 544

    When the last gorgeous fireworks came to an end, the earth fell into darkness again.


    "Lord sacrifice, the fireworks have been set off." Xue Rengui said urgently. He was on the battlefield. How helpful it was for Datang to set off fireworks.


    If there were no fireworks, Datang might have won, but there would never be such a victory. I''m afraid the skilled Tuyuhun cavalry with bows and horses would have taken advantage of running around.


    However, under the light of fireworks, the Datang army cooperated in batches, besieged, chased and intercepted, and besieged a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry.


    "The fireworks are gone?" Merton looked up at the sky without any panic. A pair of wisdom beads said in his hand. "It doesn''t matter. This Tiangou Food Day is coming to an end and the day is about to dawn."


    These fireworks were made by him with the most precious gunpowder. The quantity was not large, but Merton pinched the time to make fireworks. Even if there is an error, it is only a few interest rates.


    Sure enough, just as Merton''s voice fell, a dazzling light fell from the sky. I saw that the sky suddenly brightened. In a twinkling of an eye, heaven and earth immediately returned to light.


    Li Jing put down the sun protection mirror in her hand and watched the Tuyuhun cavalry defeat one after another. The victory of the Tang Dynasty was settled, so she couldn''t help laughing; "Beat the drum and the whole army will attack."


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    With the roar of the army drum, the Tang cavalry was instantly divided into two groups, one was dedicated to encircling the Tang iron weapons trapped in the siege, and the other was to comprehensively pursue and kill the escaped Tuyuhun routed soldiers.


    "It''s dawn!"


    Tuoba chici led the Dangxiang cavalry just to take the back road of the Tang army, and was immediately stopped by the Turkic cavalry led by Qixin Heli. Fortunately, Tuoba chici had the intention to save his troops and didn''t fight hard with the Turkic cavalry. He didn''t get deep into it. Seeing the dawn, he immediately turned around and fled to the West.


    At the same time, among a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry, Fu Yun looked at the sun again. In a hurry, he couldn''t help spitting another mouthful of blood.


    "Oh, my God! Did the grassland God also turn his back on Tuyuhun." Fu Yunji shouted loudly.


    Other Tu Gu''s nickname Wang also looked pessimistic. If they defeated on the battlefield, they had nothing to say. However, they failed so strangely. That short half an hour has become a lingering nightmare for everyone.


    "Khan, the Tang army is catching up again." the king of Tianzhu looked at the rear with a frightened face.


    "Damn it!"


    Fu Yun couldn''t help but recall the nightmare of being chased and killed by the Sui army. At the moment, the Tuyuhun soldiers had already collapsed and could not form an effective resistance at all.


    "Go, the Tang army is wearing heavy armor and can''t catch up with Tuyuhun''s horse!" Fu Yun ordered, and a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry fled to the West.


    The two armies chased and fled for 20 miles, and finally Tuyuhun Qinghai took the upper hand.


    "It''s so hateful that Fu Yun escaped." Wei Chi Baolin, who took the lead, looked at the Tuyuhun cavalry who had run to the shadow.


    "Whoa!" Qin Huaiyu held his panting horse under his crotch and said, "we can''t catch up with Qinghai Gu. The purpose of chasing Fu Yun is to prevent the old thief Fu Yun from killing a horse returning gun and rescue the trapped Tuyuhun cavalry."


    Now it has been pursued for 20 miles. Even if the Tuyuhun cavalry is killed again, people will be trapped by horses. It is impossible to kill them again. The besieged Tuyuhun cavalry is a turtle in a jar and can''t escape.


    "It''s cheap for those grandchildren." Chumo looks towards the battlefield and hates it.


    In an instant, Qin Huaiyu and Chumo look at each other with different eyes. They need to know that Cheng Yaojin, his father, is still on the battlefield.


    Cheng chumerton''s face turned black when he looked at two bad friends and threatened, "you rot in my stomach, otherwise don''t blame our brothers for breaking up relations."


    "Ha ha ha." they burst into laughter.


    Chumo''s face turned red and threatened the two. Then he became angry. He turned back and shouted at the soldiers: "disperse immediately. Ten people and a team will go back to the army to search. There must be a lot of fish on the battlefield. Don''t let them slip away."


    "Yes!" a group of right guards immediately responded. Mosquito legs are also meat. These scattered Tuyuhun cavalry are also military achievements!


    Moreover, many cattle and sheep of Tuyuhun''s army were used as military food. I''m afraid they had long fled. All these need to be found. As the food and grass of the army, it is difficult for the army to go deep into the grassland for supply. Li Jing had long formulated a strategy to feed the war with war and take Tuyuhun''s cattle and sheep as the military food of the Tang army.


    "Kill!"


    Chumo, with sharp eyes, soon finds a Tuyuhun soldier who is fleeing in a panic. His anger accumulated for a long time suddenly erupts and rushes away.


    After a few moves, cut the Tuyuhun rout under the horse.


    The same situation happened on the battlefield within a radius of dozens of miles. One by one, the Tang army pursued the victory and killed one by one Tuyuhun rout soldiers.


    With the passage of time, the sound of fighting gradually stopped, and scattered small groups of cavalry came back one after another. Behind each horse, one or two Qinghai horses were tied, or they came back with several cattle and sheep.


    "General, our army cut 50000, captured 20000 miscellaneous animals, and Fu Yun was defeated and fled back to Fuhou city." a soldier reported excitedly.


    "Good!"


    Li Jing Gu Jing''s face was finally beaming with joy. The Tang army not only defeated more than 200000 iron cavalries in Tuyuhun, but also cut 50000 in array. This is a great victory since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.


    The generals were also overjoyed. They naturally contributed to such a victory. They thought it must be a hard battle, but they didn''t expect the victory to come so smoothly.


    Everyone couldn''t help but focus on Merton. If the credit for this great victory is divided into three, the first one is naturally all the officers and men, the second one is of course Li Jing, who has the command, and Merton must be the third one.


    If there were no extremely powerful gunpowder, if there was no accurate prediction of Tiangou''s eclipse of the sun, if there was no moment when day and night turned upside down, the fireworks of mojiazi could not have such a great victory.


    If the dog eating the sun is the reversal of yin and Yang, then the fireworks of mojiazi are the reversal of yin and Yang. Under the brilliant fireworks, the soldiers of all armies fought on the battlefield. I''m afraid this kind of combat experience will be a memory that everyone will never forget.


    Li Jing shook her head, waved away the picture that could not help but emerge in her mind, and asked, "how are the casualties of our army? How many people can fight."


    "Our army killed two thousand people and wounded ten thousand people!" the soldier said with a heavy face. Even if Tang Jun was well prepared and faced the overwhelming charge of Tuyuhun, he was also seriously injured, but it was much better than expected.


    "Order Mr. Mo Wu to let the doctors try their best to treat the wounded." Li Jing said with a heavy face. "As for the sacrificial soldiers, they will be buried in a thick place. The commander of the army will register them one by one, double their military achievements, and wait for the class teacher to return to the dynasty, and then be compensated by the imperial court."


    "Yes!" the soldier immediately withdrew.

 Chapter 545

    "Wise general!" the generals bowed their hands one after another. They had no objection to the doubling of the military skills of the dead soldiers. This time, the army array cut 50000 Tuyuhun. There are enough military skills for the soldiers to divide. Moreover, Li Jing can certainly make the soldiers return to their hearts and kill the enemy with his heart.


    Li Jing looked at a messy battlefield and couldn''t help taking a deep breath. Lang said, "let''s go and see how the wounded soldiers are doing?"


    The generals'' hearts sank. Although the Tang army won a great victory this time, nearly 10000 soldiers were still injured. According to the past practice, the recovery rate was up to 30%.


    Fortunately, this time, the children of doctors are stationed in the army. I hope the doctors don''t talk big. If there is a 90% cure rate, it will be the greatest blessing of the soldiers. More important than military merit is the lives of the soldiers.


    The wounded camp is not far away. It is on the flat grassland just a mile away from the battlefield. On this grassland, white tents have been built. Soldiers and soldiers quickly go in and out, carrying wounded soldiers into the tent and receiving medical treatment as soon as possible.


    The whole wounded camp was busy. Even Li Jing and his party entered but were ignored. As a last resort, Li Jing grabbed a tall soldier who had just finished his work and asked:


    "Where is doctor Mo Wu?"


    "Tell the general! Doctor Mo Wu is in the tent in the middle and is healing an injured soldier." when the tall soldier saw that it was Li Jing, he quickly reported.


    Under the leadership of the tall soldiers, the generals came to the largest tent in the middle and just saw two medical soldiers carrying a wounded soldier who had been wrapped up.


    "Doctor Mo Wu, am I disabled?" the wounded soldier clenched his teeth and wailed.


    I saw the white camp opened, a young face of Mo Wu, holding a clean towel, wiped the water drops on his just washed hands, and said as if nothing had happened: "the broken hamstring has been connected and can get out of bed in a month, but if you want to walk normally, you can recover in at least a year."


    "One year to walk normally?" the wounded soldier was stunned.


    Mo Wu frowned and said, "if it''s too slow, you can go to Chang''an Chengmo hospital for rehabilitation training. It should be OK for half a year."


    The wounded soldier was overjoyed at the speech, waved his hand and said, "it''s not too slow, it''s not too slow! As long as I can keep my leg, it''s worth it, not to mention one year, even two years."


    Suddenly, the wounded soldiers'' decline was swept away. Even if they had severe pain in their legs, they no longer looked sad.


    "I''ll give you the rest. There are several minor injuries on his body, which have stopped the blood. Use the method I usually give you, first disinfect with alcohol, then suture the wound, and then apply the wound medicine." Mo Wu ordered the medical soldier on one side, waved his hand and motioned the soldiers to carry the wounded away


    "Yes!" the medic on one side immediately responded and quickly carried the wounded to another tent for treatment. They had already been familiar with the suturing method. Although their craft was not as good as that of a real doctor, they couldn''t care about anything at the moment. They could just sew it.


    "Doctor Mo Wu really has amazing medical skills. Breaking tendons and renewing this kind of medical magic is really the gospel of the soldiers. I thank the doctor on behalf of the military." Li Jing took the opportunity to come forward and thanked him.


    Li Jing can imagine that without the participation of doctors, it is difficult to say whether the soldiers just now, let alone disabled, can save their lives depending on the level of military doctors.


    "General Li is flattered. Saving the lives and healing the wounded is the duty of a doctor." Mo Wu said modestly.


    Li Jing nodded and asked, "how is the treatment of the wounded now!"


    Mo Wu said with lingering fear: "thanks to the previous publicity of the method of emergency hemostasis and the hundreds of medical soldiers, most of the seriously injured soldiers have been treated, and the rest of the less seriously injured soldiers have been taken over by the hundreds of medical soldiers. I believe they can be treated soon."


    Fortunately, the method of emergency hemostasis, otherwise the soldiers who died directly will at least double after the war. Moreover, there are nearly 10000 wounded soldiers this time. I''m afraid that if dozens of doctors'' children are busy, they can''t be treated.


    When Li Jing heard the speech, he was surprised and said, "so, these wounded soldiers..."


    Mo Wu nodded and said, "don''t worry, general. The soldiers can stop bleeding in time. With the method of alcohol disinfection and suture, 90% of the cure rate can still be guaranteed."


    All the officers and men were immediately happy. The cure rate was 90%, which means that at least 9000 officers and men will recover. This is great news.


    "Doctor Mo Wu, the tent is not enough." a medical soldier said anxiously. There are too many wounded soldiers. The tents originally prepared have already been used up.


    Before Mo Wu answered, Li Jing waved his big hand and said, "send orders, free up the soldiers'' accounts, and give priority to ensuring the needs of the wounded."


    Li Jing has been good at fighting for a long time. Naturally, he knows the value of wounded soldiers. How valuable is a wounded soldier who has been on the battlefield, killed the enemy in front, and recovered from serious injuries. Once these wounded soldiers recover and put on their armor again, they will become a elite soldier in a hundred battles in an instant.


    Now 90% of these wounded soldiers will recover. You know, this is the next 9000 elite soldiers. Li Jing naturally attaches great importance to it.


    "Doctor Mo Wu, a wounded soldier began to bleed again." a medical soldier hurried to report.


    Mo Wu hurriedly sued Li Jing and others, left in a hurry, and began a life and death rescue.


    Li Jing with a group of generals then inspected one military tent after another and looked at the busy wounded camp. In this wounded camp, every soldier received careful care. All wounds have been sewn up and wrapped with snow-white and clean linen.


    Although he was lying down, there was no always dead wounded soldiers. On the contrary, every soldier talked and laughed, and no one was worried about his life.


    Walking out of the wounded camp, Li Jing looked at the sun gradually setting in the West and grew an airway: "soldiers wear clothes and wrap their bodies, fight on the battlefield, and doctors save the dead and heal the wounded. There are countless living people. The presence of doctors is the gospel of my military family."


    The generals nodded one after another. For soldiers, the greatest happiness is that they can get the doctor''s treatment when they are injured!


    As the sun set, the earth fell into darkness again. Tang Jun buried his army. However, there was only one way for Tuyuhun''s soldiers who died in the war, that was cremation.


    After the war, if the corpses are not handled in time, it will certainly cause plague. Cremation is the simplest, fastest and safe method.


    Tuyuhun''s officers and soldiers died too many wars, and the fire burned continuously, making the whole night red.


    "Eh! The west is on fire." a soldier on duty on night patrol was surprised to see that the West was also on fire, reflecting the whole sky red.


    "No, it must be the old thief Fuyun who burned the grassland. Go and report it to the general!" the officers and men on the night patrol hurried to the central army to spread the news.


    After a while, all the generals in the army rushed to the west side of the barracks one by one, looking at the red sky in the West. It was obviously that Fuyun burned the grassland and cleared the field, so that the Tang army''s horses had no pasture and cut off the Tang army''s pursuit.


    "The real bitter battle is coming!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the red sky in the West and took a cold breath.

 Chapter 546

    Now it is summer. Although the dense grass can not burn, there is a thick layer under the dense grass. Last year, there was a thick dry grass root, which is flammable. In addition, it is dry in summer, and the land of Qinghai is dry and rainless,


    The withered grass roots started to grow and spread rapidly.


    In order to stop the pursuit of the Tang army, Fu Yun did not set fire at one place, but sent several cavalry to directly ignite the grassland hundreds of miles around, and kept spreading around. In the sight of the Tang army, the whole west was red.


    The first day of may in the eighth year of Zhenguan is destined to go down in history.


    During the day, Tiangou eats the day, day and night are confused, and Yin and yang are reversed; Then the mojiazi fireworks rose to the sky, reversed Yin and Yang, could see things clearly in the dark, and the soldiers fought as usual; They thought it was over, but they didn''t expect that just at night, Fuyun lit a prairie fire, and the day and night were reversed again. Tonight should have been full of stars, and the world was dark. However, because of the huge fire, the whole sky was like dusk, and the whole camp was clearly visible.


    "My husband, today is really an eye opener." Cheng Yaojin looked at the red sky in the West and recalled his experience of that day. He couldn''t help sighing. He had never seen any scenes in his life. However, three days and nights in a day today is probably the most amazing experience in his life.


    Other generals also nodded and sighed.


    Today''s war has simply subverted their previous concept of war, which has really opened their eyes. Since ancient times, there are very few who can borrow time from the war. I''m afraid the most famous is the battle of Chibi.


    "Ha ha! In ancient times, Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind. Today, Mohist scholars calculate the solar eclipse. Today''s war will certainly become a good story in the future." Li Jing laughed.


    Merton immediately said to Hao Ran, "General Li, don''t break the evil boy. I don''t dare to compare with Mr. Zhuge. The boy is just talking in this war. If there is no general Li''s command, the boy is accurate. I''m afraid it won''t help."


    Li Jing waved his hand and said, "ZHUGE Liang borrowed the east wind to burn Cao''s boat, but who can deny Zhou Yu''s credit?"


    "Yes! I have to say that you are a beautiful boy." other generals also lamented one after another, and there was not much jealousy in their words.


    Merton remembered that there was no romance of the Three Kingdoms at this time, and the world had not made Zhuge Liang a myth. Zhou Yu was the main general in the battle of Chibi, and his achievements could not be erased.


    Hou Junji''s face coagulated and said, "now Fuyun has lit a prairie fire. According to the report of the scouts in front, the fire is less than 60 miles away from the battlefield. If we follow the speed of the fire, it will burn to us in no more than two hours."


    The hearts of the people sank. If the fire came here, the army would move to the camp. Last year''s withered grass roots had little power to catch fire, but after the fire, the grass would be burned. At that time, the cost of more than 100000 war horses alone would be enough to bring down the Tang army.


    Cheng Yaojin looked at the wounded camp with a worried face, shook his head and said, "we can naturally retreat, but the wounded camp can''t retreat. If the fire burns here, I''m afraid..."


    Cheng Yaojin didn''t finish his words, but the people could understand what he meant. The nearly 10000 wounded soldiers were in stable condition. If they were moving, I''m afraid they would relapse and suffer heavy losses at that time.


    "No more! Once the fire burns here, I''m afraid there will be more deaths and injuries." Hou Junji frowned.


    "Fuyun old thief''s poisonous plan." Cheng Yaojin hammered in the air.


    Fuyun didn''t hesitate to burn the grassland in this fire. The main purpose was to prevent the Tang army from pursuing. However, he missed the mistake and hit the wounded battalion, the biggest weakness of the Tang army at present.


    "Up to now, only a strong man can break his wrist." Cheng Yaojin gritted his teeth.


    Other generals couldn''t help but look heavy. They didn''t expect that with the help of doctors, they had ushered in the hope of life for these wounded soldiers, but how cruel God was, and took away the hope of these wounded soldiers in an instant.


    Once a prairie fire occurs, unless it burns to the desert or is blocked by a river, I''m afraid it will burn all the time. Unless God favors it, the next heavy rain may extinguish the prairie fire.


    But they looked up at the stars, where there would be a slightest sign of rain.


    "Up to now, I''m afraid it''s the only way?" Li Jing sighed, ready to order the transfer of the wounded camp.


    "Don''t worry, general. A little boy came to see. The wounded camp doesn''t have to be transferred." Merton suddenly shouted.


    Li Jing was stunned. Looking at Merton, she couldn''t help but say in a hurry: "how can ink sacrifice wine have a fire-fighting strategy."


    The generals looked at Merton with expectant eyes. You know, others have long despised him, but that''s the Mexican family who has repeatedly created miracles. Even Tiangou can accurately calculate the eclipse day. Maybe there will be a strange plan to put out the fire.


    However, to everyone''s disappointment, Merton shook his head and said, "the Shangshu said:" if the fire burns in the field, it can''t be put out. Once the grassland fire is burned, it can''t be put out at all. "


    Cheng Yaojin frowned and said, "since it''s impossible to put it out, isn''t the wounded camp waiting to die here?"


    The generals also looked at Merton with suspicious eyes. Merton smiled confidently and said, "the Mohist school also has a lot of research on fuel consumption. If fire wants to burn, it must meet two conditions. One is the oxygen in the air proposed by the Mohist school. Of course, this one is impossible to achieve, and the other is to have combustibles, that is, the withered grass roots under our feet."


    Li Jingruo thought, "the way of offering wine to Mo is on the withered grass root."


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, since the fire must have withered grass roots to burn, but what if there are no withered grass roots around the wounded camp? The fire will not burn naturally."


    "But how can we remove these withered grass roots?"


    Merton also wanted to sell. Suddenly, he looked up and saw the generals looking at him with bad eyes. Merton quickly said: "We can burn the withered grass roots around the wounded camp before the fire. In this way, the fire spread here, and the withered grass roots here have been burned up by us in advance. Naturally, it can''t burn up, and the wounded camp doesn''t have to be moved."


    "We burn ourselves? Isn''t that the way to die?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton strangely.


    Merton explained: "According to Mohist research, only 20% of the people were killed by fire, and 80% of the people in Chengdu were choked by thick smoke. If we could dig a circular trench around the wounded camp as a fire belt, we would take the initiative to ignite the fire in the west of the trench, control the direction of the fire, connect it with the grassland fire, and then ignite the grassland in the north, South and East in turn. In this way, the burned grassland is burning So as to form a large fire belt, and the wounded battalion in the middle is naturally unimpeded and will not be choked by thick smoke. Naturally, there is no need to move. "

 Chapter 547

    "This is feasible!" the generals thought a little and immediately brightened their eyes.


    According to Merton''s method, the wounded camp really doesn''t need to move, and there are still two hours for the fire to operate.


    "Come on, dig a circle of trenches around the wounded camp immediately. Remember to dig the westernmost one first." Li Jing immediately ordered without hesitation. Immediately, a large number of soldiers rushed out and began to dig trenches on a large scale. Soon the whole wounded camp was surrounded in a circle.


    Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton in amazement and said strangely, "I don''t know if you have seven tricks and exquisite heart. In other people''s eyes, things that are as difficult as heaven are in your hands."


    Other generals nodded and looked at Merton with strange eyes.


    Merton proudly pointed to his head and said, "seven tips and exquisite hearts are all false. According to the research of doctors, whether a person is smart or not is not because of his heart, but his brain. The heart is just a place for blood supply."


    In an instant, the generals could not help but brush their eyes on Merton''s head.


    Merton suddenly felt his head cold and felt like a pack of wolves. He hurriedly said, "if you want to be smart, you should read more and eat walnuts! There is no other way."


    Merton has not forgotten that he ate the stem of walnut brain tonifying and quickly took it out to justify himself.


    "All right, stop it!" Li Jing shouted and stopped the generals from teasing Merton.


    "Fu Yun''s move seems powerful, but it hurts people and himself. The grassland is lit. Of course, there is no grass for our war horses in the Tang Dynasty, but the same is true for Tuyuhun''s war horses. At the moment, Fu Yun must take advantage of the fire to stop us and run away. What should we do now?" Li Jing looked at the red sky in the West and said with a heavy face.


    Suddenly, all the generals looked worried and looked at the fire in the distance..


    "Tell the general! Fu Yun, the old thief burned the grassland, and our army is short of war horse forage. If you take an adventure expedition, I''m afraid people will be tired and horses will be tired. If you''re not careful, you will lose your troops and lose your generals!" Li daoyan frowned.


    There is no need to remind the generals of the importance of food and grass. The generals naturally know that the lighting of the grassland in Fuyun will not give the Tang army any chance. I''m afraid the places with abundant water and grass have long been burned up, and they will continue to spread over time. Most of the land that can survive may be spared, But these small areas can''t be enough for more than 100000 war horses.


    "General, withdraw! Our army has been defeated in Tuyuhun. If you risk pursuing, there will be no smoke for thousands of miles and no weeds. If you want to let the war horses pursue hungry, I''m afraid their previous achievements will be wasted if you''re not careful!" Gao Zhengsheng echoed.


    Now that the Tang army has won a great victory, everyone who retreats now has credit. If you take risks to pursue and turn from victory to defeat, you will not only have no merit, but also have it. I''m afraid it''s hard to please.


    Not only did Li daoyan and Gao Zhensheng think so, but most generals nodded in agreement. Now when they return to Chang''an City, everyone will have a reward. Why bother to risk failure?


    For a moment, almost all the generals agreed to withdraw.


    "But now our army is in great shape! It''s really unwilling to withdraw like this!" Cheng Yaojin said with hatred.


    After this war, the Tu army must be terrified, and the form of the Tang army is very good. However, I didn''t expect that Fu Yun would think of such a plan to hurt both sides. This time, the burning of the grassland by Fu Yun will certainly stop the Tang army, and the whole Tuyuhun will be energetic and loud. If cattle and sheep have no pasture, they will suffer heavy losses.


    "We must not withdraw our troops." suddenly, amid the hesitation of the people, a young voice said firmly.


    The generals suddenly turned around and saw that it was Merton who opposed the withdrawal. Suddenly, they couldn''t help thinking about it. Naturally, they knew that Merton was a determined advocate. This time, the Tang Dynasty sent troops to attack Tuyuhun on such a large scale. It can be said that a large part of Merton''s full promotion.


    Li daoyan looked at Merton coldly and said: "I would have known that you wanted to avenge Tuyuhun''s request for Changle''s marriage. According to your seniority, I would still be Changle''s uncle. Naturally, I would also like to vent my anger for Changle, but this is a national matter. How can it be compared with personal feelings? If you let the army fall into a place of eternal disaster for your own personal interests, not to mention you, even the whole Mohist school can''t afford it."


    The other generals nodded one after another. It''s too difficult to pursue at the moment.


    Other generals also looked at Merton with dissatisfied eyes. They admitted that Merton had made a lot of achievements in this war. However, it was not qualified to let them go to risk and let the Mohists please a woman, even if the woman was a princess.


    Merton sonorous way: "Since manager Li talked about selfishness, let''s talk about Fu Yun''s selfishness. Do you think Fu Yun is a person who tolerates losses? Think that when Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty defeated Tuyuhun, Fu Yun fled in a hurry. In the next 20 years, Tuyuhun violated the border year after year. Such a person who will repay his vengeance, boy, but I can guarantee that if we retreat today, the army will just leave, and the whole long will be destroyed The land on the right will surely suffer the craziest Revenge of Fu Yun. "


    Suddenly, the whole generals were cold in their hearts. With the character of vengeance and retribution, Merton predicted that it would not happen, but would happen. At that time, let alone go to Chang''an city to receive merit, they were afraid that the saliva of the imperial court''s censor would drown them, and it was not certain whether they could keep their positions.


    Merton continued: "If we can''t completely defeat voyun this year, Tuyuhun will suffer losses today and will double take it from the people in Longyou. Who will bear such crimes then? Naturally, it is us. The imperial court will take us to the end, remove us from office and use a group of generals again. Tuyuhun''s army will certainly repeat its old skills and burn grass and escape. Do you agree Why, will the general who will levy Tuyuhun next year order the pursuit? "


    Everyone nodded silently in their hearts. It can be imagined that with their lessons, I''m afraid next year''s army will pursue and completely solve the great trouble of Tuyuhun.


    Merton suddenly shouted, "since we will pursue sooner or later, why don''t we take the initiative today."


    Li daoyan hesitated and turned his eyes: "I heard that Marquis Mo once said the policy of breaking Tuyuhun in the court hall. As long as we wait for Tuyuhun''s busy season in spring to attack the grassland, Tuyuhun will lose in three or five years. Why don''t we use this good policy."


    The generals'' eyes lit up. Since Fu Yun can ignite the grassland, they can naturally attack the grassland for several consecutive years and burn the grassland. Tuyuhun will surely lose. This method is both safe and successful.

 Chapter 548

    Merton smiled bitterly: "That''s why the boy intimidated Tuyuhun''s envoy. It''s true that if we follow this method, our Datang will surely win. However, the trapped animals are still fighting. If Tuyuhun is forced to rush and fight back suddenly, our Datang will win, it will also win miserably. The whole land of Longyou will be hit with holes and holes. You know, our Datang is not the only opponent. Tubo on the plateau is powerful The West Turks, the nine tielers who are ready to move, and the feud Koguryo. If Datang suffers heavy losses, I''m afraid these opponents will attack like wolves. "


    The generals nodded heavily. This method seems to be feasible. I''m afraid it can only be used as a deterrent. Once implemented, it will also hurt others and yourself, and the injured beast will fight back more fiercely.


    "Moreover, the army consumes countless food and grass. If 200000 troops are consumed in Longyou for three or five consecutive years, I''m afraid the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed by huge military spending alone. Moreover, if we retire today, the Qiang tribes in Dangxiang of the Tang army will surely be retaliated by Tu guhun. I''m afraid we can''t ask the Qiang tribes for help next time "Yes," said Merton.


    "Yes, it''s true that the snake will not die but suffer. Fuyun is a greedy poisonous snake. If our army wins this time and Tuyuhun is not completely solved, I''m afraid we will regret missing the good opportunity in the future." unexpectedly, Hou Junji took the initiative to agree with Merton''s point of view.


    Merton nodded heavily: "Since we all think we are suffering a lot, I believe Fu Yun must think so. If we risk pursuing, we will be able to catch Tuyuhun unprepared. If we withdraw today, we must have made no contribution and received accusations from the imperial court, but if we pursue now, there will be a risk of failure, but it is also possible that we can achieve all the success in the first World War. At that time, we will wait for great credit, I believe you will not fail to understand this truth. "


    The generals looked at each other and wavered, but no one asked to withdraw.


    Li Jing looked at Merton with appreciation, looked back at a group of generals, and said, "since Datang and Tuyuhun will have a pursuit war sooner or later, if we don''t let us pursue today, we have heavy troops in hand, and Fuyun has been terrified. We must hold Fuyun and return this war."


    "Yes!" the generals said in unison,


    Li Jing is the chief General. Military orders are like mountains. Naturally, people dare not disobey them.


    "However, Qinghai is thousands of miles away. If Fu Yun wants to hide, I''m afraid we''re like looking for a needle in a haystack. How can we pursue it?" Li daoyan frowned. He thinks he''s a child of the royal family. He usually treats himself well and complains.


    Hearing the speech, Li Jing couldn''t help looking at Li daoyan coldly. If Li daoyan was not a child of the royal family, Li Jing would now be guilty of shaking the morale of the army, and he had nothing to say.


    Merton saw this and said, "no matter where Fu Yun escaped, his ultimate goal is only one, that is


    That is the western regions. "


    Li Jing''s face slowed down, and Li daoyan was relieved. Li daoyan was immediately pardoned and did not dare to be a leader again.


    "Yes, thirty years ago, under the pursuit of the Sui army, Fu Yun fled to the western regions, and finally restored the country with the support of the countries in the western regions. This time, Fu Yun must want to repeat his old skills." Hou Junji analyzed.


    Li Jing nodded coldly: "In order to stop the pursuit of our army, a fire burned the grass, but he made a fatal mistake. Our army''s war horses were indeed short of grass. However, when Tuyuhun fled West, there must be herds of cattle and horses, and his need for grass will be ten times better than our army. Therefore, Fuyun will certainly divide troops to reduce the pressure of grass and confuse our army''s pursuit. This move seems wise, However, it gave our army a chance to dismember Tuyuhun. "


    "Dismember Tuyuhun?" the generals looked at Li Jing puzzled.


    Li Jing Zhizhu said, "if 300000 Tuyuhun cavalry are together, our army will lose a lot even if it wins, but if it is divided into tens of thousands of small tribes, how can it be our opponent."


    The generals'' eyes lit up. If Tuyuhun divided tens of thousands of troops and there was little difference in troops, the Tang army could be said to have won steadily.


    "I''m going to pursue this pursuit. The first priority is to defeat the scattered Tuyuhun departments one by one, so that Fuyun has no soldiers to use. Even if Fuyun escapes to the ends of the earth, it''s just a toothless tiger. What''s the fear?" Li Jing said proudly.


    The generals'' eyes suddenly lit up. They have been worried about Fu Yun''s revenge after the withdrawal of the Tang army. If they destroy the remaining forces of Tuyuhun, even if they don''t catch Fu Yun in the end, they don''t have to worry about Fu Yun''s counterattack. In addition, they can also capture a large number of cattle and sheep, or give an explanation to the court and make up for the deficit of the court. After all, for the western expedition , the imperial court spent too much money and food.


    "The name of the general!" the generals readily agreed, and even Li daoyan stopped refuting.


    Li Jing looked at the generals with satisfaction and said, "in order to avoid our pursuit, Fu Yun burned the grassland. If our army wants to pursue, there are only two ways. One is to bypass the fire and pursue from the north through the 800 Li Han sea, and the other is to take the South road of the fire and cross the land of the Black Sea."


    "Eight hundred miles of the vast sea! The land of the dark sea." the hearts of the people sank.


    The eight hundred mile sea refers to the Qaidam desert. It''s not an easy thing to cross the desert. Not to mention the difficulties of tens of thousands of troops.


    The land of Wuhai is in the south of Tuyuhun and adjacent to the Tubo plateau. The terrain is high. If Tang Jun arrived at Wuhai, there would be serious altitude reaction and great loss of combat effectiveness. It can be said that there are many difficulties in both directions.


    "In that case, our troops are divided into two routes, North and south. I don''t know if you generals have any ideas." Li Jing inspected and asked for advice.


    "Everything is at the command of the general alone." the generals shook their heads.


    "In that case, the general and Hou Shangshu led the troops respectively. The general took the North Road and Hou Shangshu took the South Road, and sent troops to pursue Fu Yun." Li Jing looked at Hou Junji.


    "Yes!" Hou Junji immediately received the order. Hou Junji is the Minister of the Ministry of war, and his official position is the largest under Li Jing. It is reasonable to command the way alone.


    "Where is Su Ding?" Li Jing shouted.


    "The end will come!" Su dingfang said.


    "How much dry food is there in the army now?" Li Jing asked.


    Su dingfang bowed and said, "the compressed dry food that has been prepared is enough for the army to eat in January and a half."


    "Eat in January and a half." the generals nodded with satisfaction, which ensured the expenses of the soldiers. If some Tuyuhun cattle and sheep were captured as military food, there would be no worry about the food and grass of the pursuit war.


    Su dingfang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, in order to treat night blindness before the war, the army continued to eat meat, which gave Su dingfang sufficient raw materials to make compressed dry food.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "from now on, you will immediately distribute all the dry food to all the troops. At the same time, all the baggage of the army will be handed over to your department to guard the wounded camp here."


    "Yes!"


    Su dingfang immediately took orders. But he was very sorry. It seemed that the pursuit had nothing to do with him. His baggage troops were too slow to keep up with the pursuit of the army. Moreover, the wounded camp was here and needed to be guarded. It was indeed the best choice.


    "Li daozong takes the South Road and Cheng Zhijie takes the North Road!....................................."


    "Yes!"


    Everyone took orders.


    "Well, all the troops are ready at once. If we pursue one day early, we will have a better chance of winning." soon, Li Jing quickly assigned the routes of all the generals.


    The generals were about to go back and give orders. Suddenly, they heard Merton''s weak hands raise and say, "general, what about our firearms prison?"


    Li Jing also looked at Merton with a headache. In terms of the number of people, this time the firearm supervisor came only thirty or fifty people, but in terms of credit, the firearm supervisor contributed more than that guard, and the firearm supervisor also belonged to the battle sequence.


    Cheng Yaojin said with a smile, "Mo boy, I''m afraid the gunpowder of the firearm supervisor has run out! Without the gunpowder, you firearm supervisor is a toothless tiger. You might as well follow general Su to guard the wounded camp?"


    When Merton heard the speech, he smiled shyly and said, "indeed, I have run out of gunpowder bags and gunpowder bullets, but there are still a lot of boy''s grenades!"


    "Grenade!" Li Jing''s eyes lit up. At that time, they saw the power of the firearm supervisor''s martial arts practice with their own eyes. A single soldier can use it, and the power is not small.


    Merton has prepared so many grenades that he obviously expected today. Then Li Jing said reluctantly, "then follow general Cheng first and go north."


    "Thank you, general!"


    Merton said excitedly that he didn''t want his journey to the West. It was over after only one battle.

 Chapter 549

    At four o''clock,


    On the battlefield, the Tang army slowly divided into two armies, one south and one north.


    "Tell general! The South Road army is ready." Hou Junji led a group of South Road generals to bow to Li Jing.


    Looking at the ready army, Li Jing nodded and said, "it must be difficult to pursue here. I hope you have a smooth journey. I would have hoped to meet you successfully in Qiemo city."


    Qiemo city is the westernmost border of Tuyuhun. At the same time, it is also the designated meeting place for the South Road army and the North Road army. It has a total length of more than 3000 miles. Most of the way is desert and uninhabited. Its journey is extremely difficult.


    "Obey the general''s orders!" the generals bowed.


    Li Jing turned her head and looked at the fire less than ten miles away from the army. With a wave of her long sword, she said, "let''s go."


    For the Tang army, the chance of victory would be one more point if they pursued it a moment earlier. Immediately, the two armies turned around, one south and one north, and rode along the boundary of the fire.


    After the army set out, Su dingfang, who remained behind, began to light the wasteland on the west side of the wounded camp to make room for the wounded camp.


    "Drive!"


    With a loud cry, the army slowly went north,


    The marching route of the Tang army has always kept a distance of ten miles from the fire. On the one hand, the world is dark at the moment, and the fire burning on the grassland just makes the Tang Army march smoothly. On the other hand, while the fire has not spread, seize the time to fatten up the war horses as much as possible, otherwise once the fire spreads, I''m afraid it will not be so easy for these war horses to make a meal again.


    In the huge team of the North Route Army, Merton led the officers and men of the firearm supervisor to walk slowly. Unlike other troops who travel light, there are eight wheeled carriages pulled by two eight horses in the firearm supervisor''s team, walking the farthest away from the fire.


    Other officers and men looked at the eight wheeled carriage with awe in their eyes. They had experienced the battle of the third fort of Tuyuhun and the battle of yesterday. They had long been afraid of the power of gunpowder.


    The Tuyuhun cavalry who died in the hands of the Tang army fortunately lost a whole body. Even the notorious Modao team was only split in half, and the bones were crushed in the hands of the firearms supervisor.


    For a moment, the fear of the firearm supervisor in the hearts of the Tang army officers and men instantly surpassed the broadsword team of the strongest arms and became the most ferocious team in the army.


    "Fortunately, the number of firearms prison is small."


    Many officers and men looked at the team with only more than 30 firearm supervisors and couldn''t help but rejoice.


    "Nephew Mo Xianjin, it''s a great show of skill to make the firearms supervisor rank first in the army!" Cheng Yaojin leaned up to Merton and smacked his tongue.


    Yesterday, his left leading guard fought side by side with the firearm supervisor. He saw with his own eyes the combat effectiveness of the firearm supervisor. Under each round of gunpowder attack, at least 300 Tuyuhun soldiers fell. Although Merton only fired three rounds of gunpowder bullets in a big war, he killed at least 900 enemy troops.


    Although this is far from the 50000 troops killed by the army array, you should know that the total strength of the firearm supervisor plus Merton is only more than 30 people. In this way, each firearm supervisor has nearly 30 military achievements in killing the enemy, which is beyond the reach of the Modao team!


    Kill 900 enemies without damaging one person. The status of the firearm supervisor suddenly soared in the army. Li Jing didn''t intend to let Merton expedition. When she heard that the firearm supervisor had grenades, she immediately changed her mind and didn''t want to give up the powerful attack power of the firearm supervisor.


    "Uncle Cheng is flattered. Although the firearm supervisor has strong attack power, he has no defensive power. He can''t form an army alone. I''m afraid he can''t do anything without the protection of the army." Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Cheng Yaojin nodded and said, "if you have this awareness, remember that arrogant soldiers will lose. What the army pays attention to is teamwork. Infantry are like anvils, cavalry are like hammers, and hammers and anvils collide. Even if they are as strong as a rock, they can crush them to pieces. This is the simplest and most powerful art of war in the Tang Dynasty. Although the firearms supervisor is unique, he can''t be independent."


    "Little nephew, please follow uncle Cheng''s instructions." Merton was immediately taught when he looked at the firearm supervision team that separated from the army and marched alone.


    Cheng Yaojin nodded with satisfaction when he saw Merton understand it. Merton was new to the army firearms prison and was in the limelight. Coupled with the uniqueness of the firearms prison, the whole firearms prison vaguely felt isolated. The end of an isolated army is doomed.


    When it was daybreak that day, the army immediately moved away from the fire and accelerated its speed. Merton took this opportunity to lead the firearms supervisor to get close to other Tang troops. He took the opportunity to introduce that the safety of gunpowder weapons can be guaranteed as long as they are used properly. Gradually, the army''s fear of gunpowder weapons gradually dissipated, and the firearms supervisor quickly integrated into the Tang army.


    Li Jing looked at the firearm supervisor integrated with the army with satisfaction and nodded with satisfaction. He saw the change of the firearm supervisor. However, when he looked down at the low grass under his feet, he couldn''t cover up the yellow sand on the ground, and his mood suddenly became worse.


    It has to be said that Fu Yun was determined to escape. Almost all the grasslands that could be lit were not let go. From the next day, Tang Jun had been forced to the semi grassland and semi desert area on the edge of the grassland by the fire. Only the sparse grassland here could survive and not burn.


    But the grass here is so low and sparse that it can''t meet the cost of nearly 100000 war horses. After a big March, the whole grassland and even the grass roots are eaten by the war horses. Rao is so. These war horses lose fat almost at the speed visible to the naked eye.


    What''s more, the army has been chasing for five days and marched for 500 miles. They haven''t even seen a personal film. They are confused and aimless. The cost of these days depends on the compressed dry food they carry.


    Looking at the endless desert, a group of generals on the North Road couldn''t help gathering around Li Jing to discuss countermeasures.


    "We must find the remnant tribe of Tuyuhun as soon as possible, otherwise these war horses will become weaker and weaker, and I''m afraid they will be short of food and grass." Cheng Yaojin frowned.


    These days, the soldiers are eating compressed dry food to live, and the saved corn is used as refined grain to supplement the war horses, so as to supplement the shortage of grass for the war horses. However, I''m afraid one war horse costs more than three soldiers, and the grain and grass carried by the army decreases sharply.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "according to the map provided by Dangxiang tribe, there is a low-lying place 50 miles ahead, with abundant water and grass. It may be the hiding place of Tuyuhun tribe. It should not have been burned. I would have sent someone to explore it. I think I will reply soon."


    The rest of the generals couldn''t help but look happy. They tracked for 800 miles. Now they finally heard a good news.


    "Report!"


    A scout hurried in and reported: "tell the general that there is no trace of Tuyuhun tribe in the valley ahead."


    The generals were suddenly lost on their faces, and this time they jumped into the air again.


    Li Jing said in his heart, "did the valley ever burn?"


    If the valley is not burned, the horses in the army can have a good meal.


    The Scout shook his head and said, "it''s not burned, it''s just occupied by a group of yellow sheep."


    "Yellow sheep!" Cheng Yaojin''s eyes brightened and said, "this is a good thing. Yellow mutton is a rare delicacy!"


    The last time Cheng Yaojin ate mutton, it was during the northern expedition against Turks, but he still remembers the delicacy.


    "Can you ever estimate how many yellow sheep there are?" Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help saying.


    "At least a thousand," said the Scout.


    "Thousands!" they were stunned. There were only more than a dozen yellow sheep in a group. I''m afraid it was the fire put by Fu Yunfang that drove these yellow sheep together.


    "General! Now the army is short of supplies. If we can hunt these yellow sheep to supplement the army," Morton thought. If there are more than ten yellow sheep, it is not enough for the army to fill their teeth. Naturally, there is no need to fight. However, this time there were thousands of them, enough for the army to have a full meal.


    Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said, "you don''t know, Mo boy. The Yellow sheep is very alert. I''m afraid when the army passes, I''ll have heard the sound and run without a shadow, let alone hunting, unless..."


    "Unless we set a trap and wait for the Yellow sheep to come in," Merton said.


    Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "Mo boy, I have personally hunted yellow sheep in Turks. Once this kind of yellow sheep runs, even cavalry can''t catch up. How difficult it is to want the Yellow sheep to enter the trap.


    Merton said confidently, "it''s really difficult to catch a sheep, but if it''s a group of sheep, it''s very simple."


    "How do you say that?" Cheng Yaojin raised his eyebrows.


    "In Mozi''s secret book, I mentioned sheep. Sheep are a very scattered organization. They usually rush left and right together blindly, but once one sheep moves, other sheep will rush up without thinking, regardless of the possibility of wolves in front or better grass not far away. This is the herding effect!" Merton said.


    "Herd effect!" people''s eyes lit up.


    Merton nodded, revealing a mysterious smile and said, "boy, you don''t need to control the whole sheep. You just need to control the running direction of the leader sheep. I think the firearms supervisor may be the most appropriate to deal with the Yellow sheep with abnormal hearing."


    When Merton led the firearm officers and men to the valley, he couldn''t help taking a breath when he saw the dense yellow sheep scattered in the valley. I''m afraid the number of these yellow sheep was more than what the scouts said. When the firearm officers and men appeared in the valley, all the Yellow sheep immediately gathered together, except that the number of firearm officers and men was small and didn''t want to give up The grass that was not easily found did not escape immediately.


    "Wine worship Lord!" Xue Rengui whispered to Merton.


    "Let''s go!" Merton waved his hand.


    Suddenly, more than a dozen grenades flew out of the hands of the firearm supervisors and exploded not far from the whole Huangyang. The whole Huangyang group immediately fried the pot, and immediately fled in the opposite direction of the explosion under the leadership of several Longhorn rams, followed by a large number of Huangyang groups behind.

 Chapter 550

    Merton suddenly turned over and got on his horse and shouted, "pay attention to adjusting the direction."


    "Order!" Xue Rengui shouted. One grenade after another exploded not far from the leading yellow sheep, and the huge sound constantly stimulated the Yellow sheep to run away. At the same time, the direction of the whole sheep, with the continuous adjustment of the firearm supervisors, ran quickly towards the circle of ambush by the Tang army.


    "Here we are!"


    Merton was relieved to see the small hill rising in front. After the hill, Tang Jun had arranged a trap. This time, the Yellow sheep group must be unable to escape. With the food and grass pressure of this group of yellow sheep army, he could breathe a sigh of relief.


    "Shoot!" a loud shout came from behind the hill,


    Suddenly, a large black arrow rain shot at the running yellow sheep. In an instant, the Yellow sheep fell down, and the whole sheep panicked.


    However, this is not the end. Wave after wave of arrow rain mercilessly shot. The three shots originally prepared for the enemy were used without reservation this time.


    It was too late for the whole yellow sheep group to turn around. Soon, a group of cavalry surrounded it. Only a small part of the whole yellow sheep group was lucky not to enter the siege. The rest were destroyed and destined to become the food of the army.


    On a hill, Li Jing looked at the whole process of the destruction of the Yellow sheep in front of her. She couldn''t help but be moved by it and said, "the herd effect is so terrible."


    I am afraid that he is not the leader in the front. I''m afraid a mistake will lead the army into disaster.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When the North Route Army finally had a chance to fight a tooth sacrifice, the South Route Army led by Hou Junji encountered the most severe test.


    altitude stress!


    Tuyuhun''s terrain is high in the South and low in the north. The higher the terrain, the stronger the plateau reaction. In order to pursue Tuyuhun as quickly as possible, Hou Junji marched towards the south at full speed, and finally produced serious consequences. Many Tang troops had a very strong plateau reaction, had a headache and reduced their combat effectiveness.


    "General Hou, you can''t March higher. Thirty percent of the officers and men have altitude sickness. If they encounter Tuyuhun, they may not be able to fight at all." Li daozong said anxiously.


    Hou Junji''s face sank. He was no stranger to altitude sickness. A year ago, mojiazi put forward the reason for altitude sickness because the terrain here was too high and the air was thin. Therefore, the army did not have much fear about it.


    Hou Junji took a few mouthfuls of air: "it is said that Rhodiola has some effects on altitude reaction. Have soldiers ever taken it?"


    Li daozong said with a wry smile: "before leaving, the children of doctors have given the soldiers Rhodiola, but the effect is not obvious."


    According to the previous prediction, the proportion of altitude sickness in ordinary people is 70%, but now only 30%. Although taking Rhodiola is effective, it is also unsatisfactory.


    "Military orders are like mountains, and the army can''t stop." Hou Junji shook his head and said.


    Li daozong frowned and said, "but many soldiers can''t support it."


    These soldiers are men of the Tang Dynasty. They are fearless even when they fight against powerful enemies. However, the altitude reaction makes Zhengzheng man miserable.


    Hou Junji nodded and said with a frozen face, "it seems that you and I have only troops."


    Li daozong frowned and looked at Hou Junji inconceivably. The strength of their South Road army was not much. If they were divided again, I''m afraid it would be a little weak.


    "According to mojiazi, once altitude sickness occurs, although there is no medicine to cure, it also takes only three to ten days to heal without medicine. I will command the normal soldiers to March higher, and you will command the soldiers who have altitude sickness to March lower. Ten days later, after the soldiers recover from altitude sickness, the two armies will meet again," Hou Junji explained.


    "It seems that this is the only way." Li daozong looked at the weak soldiers and had to say.


    Soon, the South Road army split up again and headed west. Fortunately, there were no Tuyuhun cavalry along the way. It was not until ten days later that the two armies met again.


    "Hoo!"


    Li daozong and Hou Junji breathed a sigh of relief. The difficulty of altitude sickness was over.


    However, what they did not expect was that altitude sickness was only an appetizer for them, and the real difficulty had just come.


    As night fell, the first night after the South Road army met, the army camped on the vast grassland, and the earth soon fell into silence.


    "How cold!" a patrolling soldier suddenly shivered and involuntarily shrunk his clothes.


    Almost at the same time, all the soldiers of the South Road army were awakened by the cold, and the whole South Road army camp soon boiled up.


    Hou Junji put on a single coat and suddenly opened the camp. He looked at the white grass in front of the camp.


    "It''s frosting!" Hou Junji said in shock. You know, this is the middle of May. Chang''an city is a hot summer. I feel sweating when I wear a single coat, and it turns out to be frosty in the south of Tuguhun in summer.


    "General Hou, our army is all in single clothes. It''s cold and cold. I''m afraid the soldiers can''t bear it!" Li daozong said with worry.


    Almost all the officers and men of the whole army are in single clothes and can''t keep out the cold at all. If it goes on like this, I''m afraid there will be no war. Tang Jun will lose his troops and lose his generals.


    Hou Junji had a dignified face and suddenly looked up at the bright moonlight in the sky. He had an idea and said, "send orders and pull out the camp immediately."


    Li daozong didn''t understand, "but our soldiers haven''t rested yet."


    "It''s freezing at the moment. Even if you stay overnight, the soldiers can''t sleep. From now on, our army will travel day and night." Hou Junji said firmly.


    On the plateau, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the temperature at night is too low. Marching at night can keep people and horses moving. At least they can resist the cold. If they rest at night, I''m afraid many soldiers will freeze to death and frostbite in their sleep. Although the temperature during the day is much lower than that in the plain, it''s enough to let them sleep safely.


    "I''m afraid that''s the only way." Li daozong sighed.


    "This is just an expedient measure. When our army on the South Road catches up with the remnant tribe of Tuyuhun, we will be able to seize their luggage. At that time, our army will not have to suffer this cold." Hou Junji comforted.


    He never thought that he wanted to chase Tuyuhun so urgently. The most important thing was to get something warm for the soldiers.


    Soon, the army immediately pulled out of camp and marched all night in the moonlight. When the sun rose during the day, they camped and rested. At the same time, the Scouts of the Tang army directly sent out hundreds of miles and frantically began to search for the traces of the Tuyuhun tribe.


    However, to their disappointment, they pursued for more than 2000 miles, but they didn''t see a person at all. The army drove on the deserted plateau, marched against the biting cold wind at night, and took advantage of the warm weather to have a rest during the day.


    The whole army is like a ghost in the wilderness. It wanders aimlessly. At the most difficult time, the army lacks water and grass. It is very solemn and stirring.


    The South Route Army has become a truly difficult route army.

 Chapter 551

    On the vast Qinghai prairie, when the two armies were carrying out arduous pursuit for thousands of miles, the good news finally returned to Chang''an City, but suddenly the whole Chang''an city fell into a carnival.


    "Spit out the grain Hun loudly. Cut 50000 in the array!" when the messenger of the good news shouted through the whole Chang''an City, he immediately detonated the streets and alleys.


    This was a great victory. All those who heard the good news cheered, and the whole Chang''an city was immediately called a sea of joy.


    Although the Tang Dynasty was not long after the founding of the people''s Republic of China, the foreign war was a series of victories, and the people''s sense of national honor increased day by day. It was natural to be proud to hear such great victories.


    As time went on, more details about the great showdown soon came.


    "This decisive battle was fought on the first day of May when Tiangou ate the sun." people who heard it couldn''t help exclaiming. They didn''t expect that when the whole Chang''an City watched Tiangou eat the sun, the Tang army thousands of miles away fought in the dark.


    "General Li also knows people and makes good use of them. He believes so strongly in the Mexican family and adopts such an adventurous plan." they can''t help looking at each other. When the Mexican family predicted the dog eclipse on the first day of May, they were also skeptical.


    However, no one thought that Li Jing believed in it and took this opportunity to formulate a series of plans. When day and night were reversed, he attacked Tuyuhun on a large scale and finally won Tuyuhun.


    "What''s this? It''s not the most wonderful. General Li threw a peach and Lord Mo rewarded him with Li. When Tiangou ate the sun, the world was dark. The old thief was ready to withdraw. In the middle of General Li''s plan, the gunpowder soared all over the sky. The night was like day, the Yin and Yang reversed again, and Tuyuhun was defeated." A well-informed person beamed and explained the situation of the war, which immediately surprised the people around him.


    Coupled with the means of changing the color of heaven and earth between the fingers, how can people not be surprised? These means are unimaginable, but they come from the hands of Mohist Zi, but they feel they should take it for granted. After all, there are too many magical things of Mohist Zi.


    Even if they don''t come in person, just imagine that when Tiangou eats the sun, there will be brilliant fireworks between heaven and earth and fighting horses on the ground, which will make them tremble.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tai Chi hall.


    Everyone was fascinated by the messenger''s vivid explanation of the great showdown.


    "Hoo!"


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. He trembled when he thought of the moment when Tiangou ate the sun. I''m afraid this battle is doomed to be unprecedented and will be the regret of every general.


    Li Jing did not disappoint everyone. Datang made a big bet on the war. It can be said that the strength of the whole country is not too much. Fortunately, Datang won the decisive battle.


    "This war is destined to be famous in history!" Yan shigu sighed. He immediately wrote quickly. He wanted to write down all the details of this war. This war is recorded in history. It is also destined to be a legendary war.


    The ministers could not help nodding. This battle was more difficult than Zhuge Kongming''s taking advantage of the east wind. Mojiazi not only accurately calculated the date of the solar eclipse, but also detected it an hour in advance. He also made fireworks. At the moment of the total solar eclipse, when the world was dark, the day and night were reversed again.


    A great general and a master of hundreds of schools. The combination of mojiazi and Li Jing, old and young, is wonderful to the top, which is the victory of this decisive battle.


    The array killed 50000 and defeated nearly 300000 Tuyuhun cavalry. The Tang army only killed 2000 and injured 10000. These achievements are not what others can do.


    "I wish I could come to the battlefield and see the scenery at that moment." many generals yearned.


    "Tell your majesty that in this war, our army killed 2000 and injured 10000 people. This is the memorial of General Li asking for merit for the sacrificed soldiers." Fang Xuanling handed a memorial.


    Li Shimin took it over without looking at it. He waved his pen and said, "pay pensions immediately according to the highest standards in the army. You can''t treat any meritorious soldiers badly."


    "Yes!" Fang Xuanling nodded silently.


    The courtiers were not moved by his heart. This is the charm of Li Shimin. He will be rewarded for his meritorious deeds and give preferential treatment to his servants. Only at the beginning could so many people have been desperate for him and vowed to die.


    "For the wounded soldiers, order the doctors to treat them with all their strength and supply all the necessary medicinal materials," Li Shimin said solemnly.


    The ministers nodded. Some doctors were thinking that these wounded soldiers would be all right.


    "If the order goes on, Jin Wu can''t help celebrating the victory of the army tonight." Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction. How can we not cheer for such a great victory.


    When the news reached Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city was ablaze with flames all night, shops were discounted, and hundreds of people poured into the streets to celebrate. The lively atmosphere was comparable to the night of the Lantern Festival.


    The whole day of carnival, but the next day, the news that Fuyun lit the grassland suddenly poured a basin of cold water on the whole chaotang.


    "Fu Yun, the old thief, is really crazy." Li Shimin said with a shocked face.


    The courtiers suddenly felt a cloud in their hearts. Qin Qiong could not help sighing: "miss the good opportunity! Otherwise our army will win a great victory and be able to destroy Tuyuhun in the first war."


    Changsun Wuji also said with worry: "Your Majesty, the grassland is lit, and the war horses are lack of grass. They can''t even get full. How can we pursue the enemy? If you don''t order the withdrawal, the future will be long."


    As soon as changsun Wuji''s voice fell, other courtiers couldn''t help nodding. If they took a risk to pursue, I''m afraid it would be too risky.


    Li Shimin said with a wry smile: "it''s too late to withdraw troops. Li Jing learned that Fuyun lit the grassland. All night, he divided his troops into two armies, North and south, and went to pursue."


    The army is thousands of miles away. Even with the convenience of brick roads, the news has spread from Qinghai to Chang''an city. I''m afraid it has been five days. Moreover, the army has entered the boundless prairie. Even if it wants to send orders, it can''t find anyone.


    "General Li is too eager for quick success and instant benefit. When he goes thousands of miles to Huangsha, there is not enough food and grass, and there are many crises. If he is not careful, he will destroy the whole army." Sun Wuji wrung his wrist.


    "The general thought it was very appropriate. Fu Yun was an old thief with a small stomach and chicken intestines. He would repay his vengeance. There would be future trouble if he didn''t kill the snake. If Fu Yun was allowed to slow down, he would redouble his revenge on the Tang Dynasty, and our army would naturally pursue the victory." Qin Qiong retorted.


    Other officials, like senior generals in the army, were divided into two groups, agreeing to pursue and withdraw troops respectively, and the two debated endlessly.


    "Li Aiqing, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, decided to pursue him for a reason. All we have to do is believe in the army and wait for the army to return triumphantly." Li Shimin said.


    Li Shimin is also a military genius. It is the most taboo for generals to hesitate. Li Jing''s ability to make a decisive and active pursuit is the most correct choice.

 Chapter 552

    "Sister Changle, why hasn''t my brother-in-law heard from me yet?" Li Zhi said with a worried face in the Changle palace.


    For a month and a half after the decisive battle, no news came from the whole western expedition,


    Since Merton successfully predicted the Tiangou eclipse and defeated the Tuyuhun army by using the Tiangou eclipse, Merton immediately became the idol of Li Zhi and talked about his brother-in-law and brother-in-law all day.


    Princess Changle had a flash of worry in her eyes. She had never received a letter from Merton since the communication on the dog food day on the first day of May.


    Princess Changle shook her head and swept away her worries. She shook her head and said, "before Merton''s pursuit, she wrote that no news is the best news. At the moment, there is no news, indicating that they are safe and sound."


    "No news is the best news." Li Zhi''s eyes lit up and quickly wrote it down in his heart.


    This time, not only Li Zhi was anxious, but even the whole Chang''an city began to be anxious, and the people began to talk one after another.


    "The front line won''t be defeated!"


    "Fuyun burned the grassland and the horses didn''t eat. Shouldn''t he..."


    "It''s said that Tuyuhun has 800 miles of vast sea. Once you enter it, you can''t get out at all."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Rumors are flying in Chang''an City, people are in panic, and various versions of rumors are flying in disorder.


    "My poor son! If you die in the war, how can you make your mother live!" an old woman with gray hair was frightened and burst into tears.


    Even the families of many soldiers who went to war were the same. For fear that their son would die in the battle, the atmosphere of Chang''an city suddenly became impetuous.


    "Sell the newspaper! The latest Ink magazine is out."


    A newspaper boy''s voice sounded in Chang''an City and immediately focused everyone''s attention on the past. Newspapers are the most sensitive news, especially ink magazines. Mozi himself went deep into the prairie with the army, and there may be news from the front line.


    "Give me a copy!" a pedestrian did not hesitate to pay for a newspaper. Others followed suit. Everyone was concerned about the war of the western expedition. This issue of Ink magazine was particularly popular. Soon, the ink magazine in the hands of newsboys had been sold out.


    When they picked up the ink magazine, they saw the headline on the front page saying, "no news is the best news." and the signature was the ink family.


    When people thought this was the news from the front line of mojiazi, they found that it was a short paragraph, and it seemed to be a fragment of a letter.


    It is natural for everyone to know who mojiazi can write to, but no one thought that Princess Changle should publish the content of the letter in mokan.


    "No news is the best news!"


    The more people read, the more they feel at ease.


    Yes! How can we guess that the army has lost before the news comes?


    Once the army entered the prairie, there was no news, and it was normal not to reply for half a month. Moreover, since there was no news from the front line, there was naturally no bad news, and the army was naturally fine.


    For a moment, the whole Chang''an city suddenly settled down because of Merton''s words. The gossip of the whole Chang''an city was swept away.


    Hearing this, a soldier''s family, who had been crying all day, immediately wiped away their tears and got up to continue to be busy.


    "Eh, Aunt Liu, don''t you worry that your little son died in the war now." a passer-by joked.


    "Your son died in the war? My son is fighting with the army at the moment. He may return to the army another day and earn a high life for me?" Aunt Liu angrily scolded.


    For a moment, the families of the soldiers settled down one after another, and the fear was swept away.


    "Tell your majesty that people in Chang''an have settled down now." Li Junxian, the commander of the hundred cavalry, bowed down and reported.


    Li Shimin looked at the ink magazine in his hand in surprise and said, "you mean, the people of Chang''an City have settled down because of one word."


    Li Junxian nodded solemnly and said, "not only the people of Chang''an City, but also the humble position. Because there is no news from the front line, it is inevitable to think in a bad direction. However, since I saw this sentence, it is very strange and I can''t help thinking in a good direction."


    Li Shimin nodded sympathetically. There was no news from the army on the front line. As an emperor, he was more worried than anyone. Now when he saw this sentence, he couldn''t help but rejoice. No news was much better than bad news, and his worry was greatly reduced.


    He did not expect that the problem that he was helpless could be easily solved in his daughter''s hands. In order to help him, Changle even published the contents of his private letter. How can such intimate little cotton padded jacket not move Li Shimin.


    "However, although there was no news from the front-line army, there was good news from the wounded camp left behind." Li Junxian bowed.


    "Hmm?" Li Shimin suddenly said in his heart, "could it be..."


    Li Junxian nodded and said, "according to the news from the wounded barracks, 70% of the wounded soldiers have recovered under the treatment of the doctors'' children."


    Li Shimin immediately felt that happiness came too suddenly. In the past, the highest cure rate of wounded soldiers was only 30%. Now 70% of the wounded soldiers have recovered, that is, 7000 wounded soldiers have recovered, which is more than double the expected. And once these wounded soldiers are cured, they are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, but they are the most valuable talents in the army.


    "What about the other 30% of the wounded soldiers?" Li Shimin was still dissatisfied.


    Li Junxian said with a heavy face: "half of the wounded soldiers have died, but the remaining 25% of the wounded soldiers have been stable. I''m afraid it will take some time to recover."


    The doctor really didn''t talk big. The cure rate was close to 90.5%. Li Shimin took a deep breath and became excited.


    "Immediately spread the good news to the whole Chang''an City, and provide the same pension for the dead and sacrificed soldiers." Li Shimin said.


    "Yes!"


    Li Junxian immediately took the order and left in a hurry. He believed that the news about the cure rate of the wounded camp would spread all over Chang''an City, and the hearts of the whole Chang''an City and even Datang would settle down.


    After Li Junxian left, Li Shimin immediately looked for the memorial about medical soldiers played by Li Jing. He didn''t even look at it and pressed the jade seal heavily.


    "Give it to the three provinces and six departments immediately, and strive for the shortest time to let doctors train their own medical soldiers in the army." Li Shimin shouted.


    Pound, who was on standby, immediately took over the memorial and handed it over.


    "90.5% cure rate!" Li Shimin arranged all this and was still excited. He often worked in the army. Naturally, he knew how much pension expenses could be saved by the sudden rise of doctors, how many elite soldiers could be added, and how many families could be reunited.


    "Doctor!" Li Shimin never paid more attention to the hundred schools of thought than this time. Before, Mohism had given him a lot of surprises, perhaps an example. Now, the sudden outbreak of doctors made him realize that he had ignored some of the most valuable wealth. The hundred schools of thought, not one or two, but the whole hundred schools of thought.


    Who knows if the next hundred doctrines will be the second Mohist or doctor.

 Chapter 553

    For Chang''an City, no news is the best news, but for the army on the grassland, I''m afraid the most suffering is no news.


    "Fuyun, the old fox, is really able to hide." Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    The army searched the prairie several times for the possible hiding place of Tuyuhun cavalry. Unfortunately, it threw itself into the air several times. Either the burned valley or Tuyuhun''s sleeping place, which was so messy that the grass roots could hardly be seen by the war horses, did not leave a chance for the Tang army at all.


    Other generals couldn''t help looking at the bodies of cattle and sheep with white tummy in the pond in front of them. Fuyun did so well that he didn''t even let go of the water source. You know how precious a water source is in Qinghai, enough to feed a tribe of thousands of people. However, at the moment, Fuyun did not hesitate to destroy it.


    Li Jing''s face was gloomy, and with a wave of his hand, he said, "go down and dig a well to get water on site. All people and horses can''t drink the water of the pond."


    At the beginning, the champion Hou Huo Qubing was so brave because he was poisoned by the Xiongnu, quoted the water source with dead cattle and sheep, and finally died. Everyone was a member of the army. Naturally, he would not make such a mistake.


    Soon, soldiers immediately picked up drilling tools and drilled wells in places far away from polluted water sources. Fortunately, during the drought last year, well killing and well drilling tools were popularized. Soon the well was well drilled and well killing was installed. Soon, the turbid water mixed with sediment was extracted.


    After the most turbid water is clarified, let the horses drink, and the last clear water is for the soldiers to drink. The soldiers directly ate compressed dry food with clean water. Fu Yun burned everything that could be burned. It was an extravagant dream to boil and drink water.


    "Wine worship Lord!" Xue Rengui took a pot of water and threw it to Merton. Merton took it and drank it up with his neck, but his eyes didn''t leave the white dead cattle and sheep soaked in the pond.


    "It''s useless. The water source is wasted. Even if these livestock bodies are salvaged, I''m afraid they can''t be used for at least half a year." Xue Rengui shook his head.


    Merton shook his head, showing a trace of confidence and said, "Tuguhun man wanted to pollute the water source with the bodies of these livestock, but he didn''t know he had made a fatal mistake, thus revealing his whereabouts."


    "Nephew Mo, could you find a way to track Tuyuhun?" Cheng Yaojin''s voice suddenly sounded from behind, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.


    Merton has been wandering around the polluted water source, which has already attracted the attention of the people. After Cheng Yaojin shouted in a loud voice, the people immediately gathered together. Although Merton is young, he has already convinced the people after the decisive battle.


    Merton pointed to the body in the water and said, "people can lie, but the body can''t. in the Imperial College, Dr. Han can accurately judge the time of the victim''s death according to the degree of decay of the body."


    Li Jing immediately looked happy and said, "you mean you can judge the time when Fu Yun left according to the dead sheep?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "this valley can only accommodate a small part of about 5000 people. Naturally, it can''t be a trace of Fuyun."


    "A tribe of 5000 people is OK. If we can catch up with this tribe, we will have food and grass for the army." Cheng Yaojin said excitedly.


    The generals nodded. The army has been under great pressure for food and grass these days. If they can''t catch up with Tuyuhun''s tribe again, I''m afraid the morale of the army will be shaken again.


    At Merton''s instigation, Xue Rengui pinched his nose and pulled a swollen dead sheep out of the water.


    Suddenly a stench came, and a group of generals took a few steps backward with their noses, looking at Merton with a bad taste.


    Merton turned a blind eye to the people, pointed to the wound on the dead sheep''s neck and said, "this sheep is obviously a live sheep directly slaughtered and thrown into the water source. The process of a sheep''s meat from fresh to rotten is fixed. According to the rotten degree of the dead sheep, the sheep died for three days."


    "Three days?" people''s eyes suddenly lit up. If there were only three days, I''m afraid the army would have hope to catch up.


    "However, the water will slow down the decay rate of the corpse, which is three or four times slower than exposure to the sun directly, that is to say, the Tuyuhun tribe has left for ten days.


    "Ten days!" the hope that had just risen in the hearts of the people suddenly faded again. In ten days, these Tuyuhun tribes had already disappeared in the vast prairie.


    "That''s not necessarily. Take the map!" Merton stretched out his hand and Xue Rengui immediately presented an enlarged Tuyuhun map.


    "This is our current location," Merton said, pointing to a slightly invisible point on the map.


    "Tuyuhun''s tribe can''t drive cattle and sheep fast. With the speed of Tuyuhun''s tribe and the speed of our army''s March," Merton brightened his eyes and drew a big circle on Tuyuhun''s map with Tang army''s station as a dot.


    "The tribe that left here ten days ago will certainly be within this range," Merton said, pointing to the circle on the map.


    The generals gathered together and looked at the circle one by one, frowning one after another.


    "I''m afraid it''s hard to find such a large area!" Cheng Yaojin frowned.


    Although the range of pursuit has been reduced, it is at least 500 miles. I''m afraid it''s not easy to find a hidden tribe within 200 miles.


    Merton said with a confident smile, "although the scope is not small, I''m afraid there are not many places with abundant water and grass. This is just a small tribe of 5000 people. The army only needs to divide a few partial divisions to search these possible hiding places. I believe we can turn out these hiding mice."


    The generals were suddenly open-minded and couldn''t help looking at Merton in amazement. No one thought that the problem perplexing the army should be solved so easily by Merton.


    Li Jing nodded slowly and immediately shouted, "Cheng Yaojin, Li Daliang and Qi Xin He Li, lead five thousand troops and three armies respectively. You must find this tribe for me."


    Soon, the three cavalry quickly separated from the army, ran out in three directions and began a carpet search.


    Sure enough, on the third day, the Middle Route Army led by Cheng Yaojin heard that he finally chased the Tuyuhun tribe in Mandu mountain 200 miles away, which was just above the circle line drawn by Merton.


    The result was no surprise. The Tuyuhun cavalry, who had no will to resist, defeated at one blow. Cheng Yaojin returned with a great victory and captured countless cattle and sheep.


    The whole Tang army breathed a sigh of relief. The food and grass of the army finally landed, and the biggest threat to the Tang army was finally relieved.


    At the same time, in the south of Tuyuhun, Hou Junji and Li daozong led the trembling South Road army, stepping on the grass with White Dew as frost, suddenly rushed to a Tuyuhun tribe in front of them.


    Similarly, the first priority of the South Road army, which won a great victory, was not to gather the panicked cattle and sheep, but to desperately collect all warm clothes. Even if a large number of cattle and sheep could not eat up, they were still ruthlessly slaughtered just to get fur for heating.


    Both the northern and southern armies made initial progress, and the Tang army finally gained a firm foothold on the grassland.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With nearly ten thousand cattle and sheep as supplies, the morale of the North Road army was more sufficient. Li Jing gave full play to his command ability. The scouts scattered like a net, and any suspicious information gathered in front of Merton in every detail.


    Merton looked at the pieces of information in his hand, kept picking up paper and pen money to calculate, and suddenly frowned and laughed.


    "There must be the remains of Tuyuhun in the cow''s heart pile."


    "The source of Chishui will certainly throw grain and heavy troops."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As Merton drew areas on the map, Tuyuhun''s hiding places were immediately in force. No matter how Tuyuhun hid, Tang Jun would follow suit, just like an insider, and could always accurately find Tuyuhun''s hiding place.


    "Kill!"


    In front of the red water source, a large number of Tang soldiers killed their horses, which was clear to the bottom. It was like the red water source in the fairyland on earth, and the blood almost dyed the whole red water source.


    "Tell general! Our army won a great victory. We killed 5000 Tuyuhun cavalry and captured nearly 100000 cattle and sheep." a close soldier said excitedly.


    Li Jing couldn''t help but rejoice. The Tang army fought a series of victories, made great achievements, but lost little. It can be said that it was a great form. More importantly, it weakened Tuyuhun''s strength and smoothly implemented the plan to dismember Tuyuhun.


    The generals couldn''t help looking at Merton''s young face. If it weren''t for the magic tricks of the Mohists, Tang Jun might still be walking around on the prairie?


    "Have you ever heard of Fu Yun!" Merton couldn''t wait to ask the soldiers.


    The soldier shook his head and said, "this is the tribe under the command of Wang Murong Xiaojun. Murong Xiaojun was seriously injured during the Tuguhun three Fort war and died during the war."


    The people were immediately disappointed. Although the Tang army had made good achievements in three consecutive battles, there was still no news of Fu Yun,


    "How hateful! Fu Yun, an old thief, is so cunning that he has ruthlessly abandoned these tribes." Cheng Yaojin said with hatred.


    Although the north route army won three games in a row, it defeated some small tribes, and the eliminated Tuyuhun troops were only twenty or thirty thousand people. It didn''t hurt Tuyuhun at all. In Fuyun''s hands, it still controlled Tuyuhun''s main force.


    Li Jing is also embarrassed. For Datang, Fu Yuncai is a real trouble. If Tuyuhun''s main force is not eliminated, Datang may face constant harassment from Tuyuhun.


    "Our army has won three consecutive victories, and Fu Yun will certainly receive the news of the rout. I''m afraid he has become a frightened bird now. I''m afraid it will be more difficult to encircle." Li Daliang frowned.


    Suddenly a melancholy cloud shrouded the generals, and the joy of the victory was swept away.


    "Fuyun, the old thief, shouldn''t be a rabbit. He runs so fast. Don''t let me find him!" Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    "Although we don''t know where Fu Yun is, one may know." Merton suddenly interrupted. Immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Who is it?" the generals suddenly looked at Merton.


    Merton said word by word: "Tuoba chici, leader of Dangxiang!"


    "Tuoba chici!" the generals were stunned and said, "how is this possible? Even if he knew it, he wouldn''t tell us. At the beginning of the war, Tuoba chici personally participated in the war and resolutely leaned towards Tuyuhun."


    Merton sneered: "at this moment, at that moment, now our army has won a great victory. Fu Yun is like a lost dog. He is in a precarious situation. I think it''s time for Tuoba chi to resign for himself."


    "That''s a wonderful plan!" Cheng Yaojin patted his thigh and said, "the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. Now the big tree Tuyuhun will fall. I don''t believe that his Tuoba tribe will be loyal to Fuyun."


    "Yes! This plan is feasible!" the generals nodded one after another.


    "But what if Tuoba chici is stubborn?" Li Daliang worried.


    Li Jing''s face was cold and said in a harsh voice: "then he Tuoba chici, let''s bury him with Tuyuhun! Let those party leaders send a message to Tuoba chici. If he abandons the secret and turns to the bright side, Datang can let bygones be bygones: if he dares to be stubborn, Tuoba tribe will wait for the extermination of the nation!"


    The generals were so cold that they remembered that Li Jing was the general who would destroy the country. They didn''t care about a small Dangxiang tribe.


    "Yes!" a messenger immediately took command.


    On the grassland, there was only one way to send messages. In less than five days, the threat of the Tang army spread to Tuoba chici''s ears.


    In the camp of Tuoba tribe, Tuoba chici, who was in charge of the tiger back and waist, looked uncertain and his anger was burning in his heart. However, when he thought of his own Tuoba tribe, he couldn''t help but feel oppressed. Tuoba tribe is no more than an iron cavalry supporting 300000 soldiers. If Tang army wants to pay special attention to Tuoba tribe, I''m afraid it''s impossible to turn over at all.


    "Tang Jun really deceives people too much. It''s a big deal that we fight with Tang!" a tall young man angrily said to Tuoba chici''s right hand. This is Tuoba Pengyi, the eldest son of Tuoba chici. He was originally staying in Tuoba tribe. Under the threat of Tang Jun, he hurried to consult his father.


    "What do you want to spell? You haven''t seen the means of the Tang army and the iron cavalry of the Tang army that day. Tuoba tribe is just a mantis in front of the Tang army." Tuoba chici angrily scolded.


    Tuoba Chizhi''s face could not help but show a burst of panic. In the darkness of the world and under the fireworks, the white steel knives lit up their armor, which was frightening. The swords of Dangxiang warriors could not break the thick armor, while the sharp steel knives of Tang army could easily pierce the leather armor of Tuoba warriors, not to mention the thunderous roar, It''s not human at all.


    "God! The grassland God has really abandoned all parts of the grassland." Tuoba Pengyi lamented.


    "Tang Jun really promised to let go of the past for our Tuoba tribe." Tuoba said with red eyes and a ferocious face.


    Tuoba Pengyi nodded and said, "this is the guarantee of leader hule. General Li Jing of the Tang army personally promised that they only need the head of Fuyun."


    "Fuyun''s head!" Tuoba chici felt a pain in his heart. In terms of seniority, he was Fuyun''s son-in-law. However, many sons killed their father on the grassland, let alone the son-in-law.


    "Tell Tang Jun that Fu Yun is in Chihai." soon, Tuoba chici had made a decision to betray and betray. Such a good play can be found everywhere in the grassland. Not many of them are Tuoba chici.

 Chapter 554

    "Red Sea!"


    After receiving Tuoba chici''s reply, Li Jing and others searched around Tuyuhun''s map, and finally focused on an insignificant point on the map.


    "Chaka Salt Lake!" Merton was stunned. He didn''t think that Fuyun''s hiding place was actually this famous tourist resort in later generations, the Kaka salt lake with the reputation of the land of the sky.


    "How? Mohou knows this place." Li Jing looked at Merton with a smile.


    Merton nodded. He not only knew that Chaka Salt Lake was a popular tourist destination on the Internet, but here, Merton''s focus was not on the scenery, but the rich salt of Chaka Salt Lake.


    "In addition to eliminating the threat of Tuyuhun, the most important task of this war is to seek the salt lake to solve the salt problem of the people in Datang pass. Chaka Salt Lake is one of them. It is said that the scenery here is picturesque and beautiful, just like a fairyland on earth. Voyun is really greedy for enjoyment. He even found himself such a resort to escape."


    Li Jing nodded slowly and said, "if it weren''t for Tuoba Chi''s resignation, I''m afraid it would be easier for me to find."


    Indeed, although Chaka Salt Lake is not far from Qinghai Lake, it is extremely inconspicuous. Tang Jun never thought that Fu Yun would hide here before.


    Merton said: "although Chaka Salt Lake is small, there are several rivers flowing into it. The surrounding water and grass are abundant. It is an excellent hiding place. In this way, the news of Tuoba chici is likely to be true."


    "It''s better to be true, or I''ll let Tuoba tribe erase it from the grassland." Cheng Yaojin snapped.


    The generals solemnly nodded. The more they looked at the map of Chaka Salt Lake, the more they felt it was possible. Moreover, Chaka Salt Lake was not a good place for ambush at all. Even if it was a trap, Tang Jun was not afraid.


    Li Jing suddenly looked up, looked around at a group of generals and said, "pull out the camp immediately and target Chaka Salt Lake!"


    At the moment, the Tang army could not wait. With an order, the army immediately rushed to Chaka Salt Lake.


    There was a hill thirty miles away from Chaka Salt Lake. A patrolling Tuyuhun cavalry had just climbed over the hill and couldn''t help wiping the sweat on his head. Although he didn''t think Tang Jun could find it here, he could only deal with it due to orders.


    "Buzz!"


    The sound of bowstring suddenly sounded, a Tuyuhun soldier in charge of patrol fell in response, and three Tang army scouts jumped up with two arrows in a row, mercilessly shooting down the running horse to eliminate any possibility of leakage.


    After one of the scouts came forward to confirm the death of Tuyuhun soldier, he was relieved and raised his young face. He saw that it was Qin Huaiyu.


    The other two are Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin. This time, they volunteered to explore the situation of Chihai. When they climbed the hill, lay down under the grass and looked down, they suddenly looked ecstatic.


    On the hillside, patches of snow-white sheep graze comfortably in the grass. Shepherdess are grazing leisurely. From time to time, a faint song comes from time to time. There is no feeling of being in war.


    In the distance, tents are connected, and the border is almost invisible. As nomadic tribes, Ju people go hundreds of miles away to graze. It is their daily life. They have long been used to it.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at each other. It seemed that they were looking for the right one this time.


    "Go back and inform the general!" Qin Huaiyu whispered, quietly retreated down the hillside, found his war horse in a hidden corner, and immediately turned over and rode back to report.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "So, Fuyun''s nest is in Chaka Salt Lake." Li Jing was relieved to hear the report from Qin Huaiyu.


    Qin Huaiyu definitely nodded and said, "even if Fu Yun is not here, it is definitely the main tribe of Tuyuhun."


    Where the cattle and sheep are, the valley spitting Hun is there! It is impossible for Tuguhun people who leave cattle and sheep to survive. According to the number of cattle, sheep and tents, this is a tribe of at least 200000 people.


    "Congratulations, general! This time I''ve caught a big fish!" Cheng Yaojin laughed. They are not afraid of any enemy. The only thing they fear is that there is no enemy.


    "Order from the general!" the generals couldn''t wait.


    "The whole army attack!" Li Jing shouted, and his cold face couldn''t help smiling. If Tuyuhun had only cut a few pieces of meat in the previous three wars, this time he hit the key of Tuyuhun. After this war, Tuyuhun would be seriously injured.


    In an instant, Tang Jun was no longer covering up his whereabouts, and the fast fan-shaped Chaka Salt Lake burst in.


    "Toot!"


    When scout Tuyuhun found the trace of Tang Jun, Tang Jun was less than 20 miles away from Tuyuhun''s camp. He couldn''t help but take risks of the dead and quickly sounded the alarm horn.


    "Tang Jun is coming!"


    In a large area of snow-white sheep, the shepherdess''s face was pale and her body trembled. She closed her eyes and accepted her fate. Under the indoctrination of Fu Yun, there was a legend of how cruel the Han people were.


    "Da Da!"


    A roar of horse hoofs passed by, protruding from the sheep, without even looking at the shepherdess.


    After a long time, the shepherdess opened her eyes and looked at the Tang cavalry who rushed to the tribal camp. She didn''t know whether to be lucky or angry. She couldn''t help crying. I''m afraid these ordinary herdsmen are the most painful in this war!


    As soon as they got the warning, the Tuyuhun cavalry had no time to assemble on a large scale, so they were directly rushed into the camp by the Datang cavalry.


    "Kill!"


    Qin Huaiyu took the lead and led a team of 300 people. Just after the assembly, there were about thousands of Tuyuhun cavalry. The two sides immediately fought together.


    Then, a large number of Tang cavalry arrived. When a small group of Tuyuhun cavalry saw the overwhelming Tang cavalry, they were cold in their hearts. With their 800 cavalry, I''m afraid they only had to die. At present, they did not hesitate to turn their horses and escape immediately, or they could fight again after gathering with the big army.


    However, when a group of Tuyuhun cavalry turned around, other Tuyuhun cavalry couldn''t help following suit. A large number of Tuyuhun cavalry fled in front, and the Datang cavalry behind them chased after them. Even if a strong cavalry wanted to turn around and fight back, it was coerced by a large number of rout soldiers and had to turn around and flee.


    If the Tuyuhun tribe is like an avalanche, it will be in a great rout. A large number of cavalry pursue and kill behind them, and constantly cut off the fleeing Tuyuhun cavalry under their horses.


    On the hill away from Tuyuhun''s station, Li Jing looked at the Tuyuhun cavalry who were constantly fleeing. The victory of the Tang army was determined. He couldn''t help but flash out the scene of the army encircling and suppressing the Yellow sheep to supply the army. He sighed: "the herd effect is so terrible, so are sheep and people."

    The last ray of golden sunshine shines on the white salt beach. The nearby Chaka Salt Lake is as calm as a mirror without even a trace of wind. The white clouds in the sky are reflected in the calm water, which is particularly spectacular.


    "Sure enough, it''s the realm of the sky. Heaven and earth are integrated." Merton looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him. Rao was in the battlefield and couldn''t help indulging in it.


    "People all thought Tuyuhun was a place of barbarians, but they didn''t expect that there would be such a fairyland." Li Jing, who was on the side, couldn''t help but sigh.


    On the whole battlefield, I''m afraid the two of them are the most idle. The whole army is fighting. Only the two of them have leisure to see the scenery.


    Soon, the fighting in the distance gradually stopped, and the cheers of the victory of the Tang army continued to come.


    "Tell general, our army beheaded 18000 troops and Tuyuhun''s troops fled West." Cheng Yaojin said excitedly. This assault was a complete victory.


    The only regret is that Tuyuhun had a large number of horses, and many Tuyuhun defeated soldiers still escaped. The Tang army came all the way. After chasing and killing for only a few decades, they were already exhausted. They had to call in gold and withdraw their troops. Only then did Tuyuhun cavalry survive and flee in confusion.


    "Have you ever seen Fu Yun?" Merton couldn''t wait to ask.


    Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said, "Fuyun is not here. He fled to the West earlier. This is the three tribes of Tuyuhun Tianzhu, which are led by the king of Tianzhu. Unfortunately, the king of Tianzhu took advantage of the chaos and ran away." Cheng Yaojin regretted.


    The three tribes of Tianzhu are the main force of Tuyuhun, with a prosperous population and many cavalry.


    Cheng Yaojin regretted the escape of King Tianzhu. He was a sycophant. They have long been gnashing their teeth. The most frequent invasion of the border of the Tang Dynasty is probably the three tribes of Tianzhu. This Tang army raid finally recovered a little interest.


    "That doesn''t hurt. After this war, Tuyuhun has no chance to turn over." Li Jing immediately smiled and said that the three tribes of Tianzhu are the main force of Tuyuhun. After this war, there is no tujun on the north line to threaten the Tang army.


    "General, this is a great victory. Our army has captured 200000 cattle and sheep this time." Duan Zhixuan came with his horse and said excitedly.


    "200000 heads." the generals who heard the news couldn''t help but rejoice. Tianzhu three tribe is worthy of being the top tribe in Tuyuhun. It''s rich. 200000 cattle and sheep are several times more than the cattle and sheep captured by the Tang army in the previous three great victories! With these cattle and sheep, Tang Jun finally didn''t have to worry about food and grass.


    If 200000 cattle and sheep were transported to the mainland of Datang, it would be an amazing wealth.


    "At this moment, the cattle and sheep that would have owed Mo for offering wine can finally be paid off." Li Jing laughed and looked at Merton and joked. Merton borrowed all the cattle and sheep he needed in order to make compressed dry food and treat the night blindness of Tang soldiers. With these 200000 cattle and sheep, it''s enough to pay back.


    The generals also looked at Merton one after another. They couldn''t help smiling. They suddenly realized that perhaps the Mohists were the most confident that Tang Jun could win. From the beginning, Merton didn''t think of the possibility of Tang Jun''s defeat and has been fully supporting it.


    In the face of the ridicule of the generals, Merton proudly said, "although 200000 cattle and sheep are valuable, I''m afraid it''s like a drop in the bucket compared with the lake in front of me."


    "A dime?"


    The generals were stunned and looked at the white salt by the lake. Then they thought, "is it salt that the ink sacrifice wine said?"


    Cheng Yaojin bent down to look for a clean place. He put a little salt in his mouth. Suddenly, there was a bitter, astringent and salty taste. From then on, he quickly took down the kettle at his waist, rinsed a few mouthfuls, shook his head and said, "this salt can''t be eaten."


    "Of course you can''t eat it, but if you use the secret technique of Mohist salt making, the salt all over the ground can become exquisite and delicious fine salt, and it''s inexhaustible." Merton said proudly, took down the treasure knife and cut it off to the ground. He saw that there was no soil in the whole underground, but a thick salt layer, and they stood on the endless salt.


    Li Jing looked at the salt layer about ten miles wide from the lake, and couldn''t help taking a breath. So much salt here is like earth. It''s not worth money, but if it is transported to the mainland after processing, its value may not be estimated at all.


    "There are hundreds of salt lakes in Tuyuhun, four of which are comparable to Chaka Salt Lake. There is also a Chaerhan Salt Lake several times larger than Chaka Salt Lake in the northwest. With this land of Qinghai, the people of the Tang Dynasty have no worries about salt." Merton said leisurely.


    Many poor generals cannot help but rejoice. They know that there is a shortage of salt among the people, and the price of salt is expensive, but it is indispensable. The people are miserable. Here, the salt layer is like sediment everywhere, which is not worth money at all, and the only cost is processing and transportation


    With the salt of Qinghai, the price of salt will certainly drop greatly, and countless people will benefit from it. Based on this calculation, I''m afraid the value of Chaka Salt Lake is really above the value of these cattle and sheep.


    "These salts are worth thousands of gold, so they can''t run away. We can only eat a handful. We can certainly have a full meal tonight, Mo boy. I heard that your boy has brought a lot of hot pot seasonings, and we don''t want to contribute as soon as possible." Cheng Yaojin salivated.


    "Hot pot seasoning?" the generals couldn''t help but brighten their eyes and look at Merton with malicious eyes. You know, hot pot came from Mojia village. I''m afraid Merton is the most likely one to have hot pot seasoning. In recent days, they eat either dry food or boiled mutton. Birds have faded out from the corners of their mouths. If there was a delicious hot pot at the moment, I''m afraid it''s a supreme enjoyment.


    Merton secretly scolded Qin Huaiyu three people for being silent. The four of them just secretly ate hot pot once, and Cheng Yaojin was noticed.


    "Don''t rob. There''s only one left." Merton, facing the siege of the generals, quickly and obediently took the initiative to hand over a hot pot bottom in order to protect himself.


    Duan Zhixuan can''t wait to grab it and arrange to slaughter cattle and sheep for dinner tonight.


    "You''re so slippery, I don''t believe you''ll take one." Cheng Yaojin turned around the Jue Ying, stretched out his hand and held one with a knife, and suddenly another packet of hot pot seasoning fell into his hands.


    "This is really the last package," Morton said bitterly.


    "What about this?" Li Daliang felt it when he didn''t know. He also held a bag of spices and said with a ruffian smile on his face.


    "It''s really gone this time." Merton bowed his head.


    Until the end, every general left contentedly, leaving an empty backpack on the horse''s back.


    "Come on, pick me a three-year-old cow and kill it. I''ve been eating old beef all winter and I''m tired of it." Cheng Yaojin shouted in a rough voice.


    The generals immediately burst into laughter. Merton made these old beef. Fortunately, there is still beef to eat. If you put it before, you have to sneak if you want to eat a meal of beef.


    As night fell, the campfire lit up, the beef cut as thin as cicada wings was rolled into a steaming hot pot and sprinkled with a pinch of green salt. Merton sat next to the generals and took a deep breath of flavor. Even if it was surrounded by 200000 cattle and sheep and stepped on a layer of salt worth thousands of gold, it was not comparable to the victory celebration banquet in front of him.

 Chapter 556

    The Tang army was celebrating beside Chaka Salt Lake. However, in a small tribe in xiaoshan''ao hundreds of miles away, nearly 10000 Tuyuhun disabled soldiers were dejected and demoralized one by one.


    The Tang army was in hot pursuit. Fu Yun was aware of the threat, so he took the lead in leading the elite cavalry of Wang Zhang to flee to the west, handed over the three most powerful tribes of Tianzhu to his commander, waited for the opportunity to run out of food and grass, and dealt a fatal blow to the Tang army when he was weakest.


    However, who would have thought that Tang Jun was as helpful as God, and repeatedly found Tuyuhun''s hidden tribe accurately, just like an insider.


    This time they fled in a hurry, and all their luggage fell into the hands of the Tang army, not even a piece of dried meat. If there were not a small tribe hiding here, I''m afraid they would be hungry.


    King Tianzhu looked at the disabled soldiers with a gloomy face. This time, he suffered heavy losses. Not only did he lose soldiers and lose generals, but even the three tribes of Tianzhu, his capital, fell into the hands of the Tang army. Thinking of the countless cattle and sheep in his tribe, he couldn''t help bleeding in his heart. That was the wealth he had accumulated in his life.


    "There must be a traitor betraying us!" a burly warrior beside King Tianzhu angrily said.


    The king of Tianzhu nodded with a gloomy face. Before, he was just a little suspicious. This time, the three tribes of Tianzhu were suddenly attacked by the Tang army again. He really confirmed again that someone must have betrayed them.


    "Tuoba chici!"


    King Tianzhu didn''t have to think about it. He couldn''t help thinking of a person in his head. Tuyuhun tribe will not betray voyun Khan, but the Dangxiang tribe of Tuoba Chizhi''s resignation is not necessarily.


    Don''t think about it. Tuoba Chizhi is probably the most likely to betray Tuyuhun, and these betrayals are not rare on the grassland.


    "I said how the Tang army could find us accurately many times. It must be Tuoba chici. Seeing the power of the Tang army, he took the opportunity to sell me Tuyuhun to protect himself!" a famous King said resentfully. There is no doubt that they would do the same.


    If Tuoba chici were here, he would cry out for injustice. He really didn''t do the previous three times.


    "Send the order and let the tribes, old, weak, women and children hidden within 500 miles move West first. The elite of the headquarters immediately go to Ju Ru Chuan to gather." King Tianzhu thought and said, "remember, give the same order to Tuoba chici. Don''t tell the truth, just let him lead troops to come."


    This time, he not only wanted to find out the ghost of Tuoba chici, but also planned to give Tang Jun a cruel and take the opportunity to recapture his tribe.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Drive!"


    Cheng Yaojin hurried and led the cavalry of the left leading guard to Ju Ruchuan.


    Li Jing got the letter from Tuoba chici, without too much doubt, and immediately sent Cheng Yaojin to pursue him. After all, the information given by Tuoba chici for the first time was very accurate, and the Tang army won a complete victory. If it was Tuyuhun''s bitter meat trick, the price of Tuyuhun''s bitter meat trick would be too high.


    "Tell general, this is Ju Ruchuan." beside Cheng Yaojin, a soldier pointed to the valley in front of him and said.


    Cheng Yaojin looked at the semi-circular hill in front of him. He couldn''t help but worry. This is a good place to ambush! At that moment, we were about to order a warning, but it was too late.


    Suddenly, a hasty horn sounded, and a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry swept down from the back of the hill and went straight to the left leading guard.


    "General! We are surrounded!" the soldier shouted.


    Cheng Yaojin just wanted to retreat, but he found that a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry surrounded him in the rear.


    "I''m in the trap!" Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    "General, let''s go out!" the soldier said anxiously. This time, Cheng Yaojin, as a striker, did not lead many cavalry, and could not resist so many close soldiers at all.


    Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said, "Tuyuhun''s horse is faster than ours. Even if it stands out, it can''t run. It''s better to fight on the spot. Maybe it can last until the arrival of the army."


    "Kill!" Cheng Yaojin had no time to think too much. He made a quick decision and suddenly urged the horse to collide with the Tuyuhun cavalry.


    The king of Tianzhu came prepared and had a large number of people. Although the Tang army occupied the advantage of military armour, it still fell into the disadvantage immediately. The two armies kept fighting in this narrow space.


    "Tuoba chici is indeed a traitor!" the king of Tianzhu said coldly. Not only did Tuoba chici not come to meet this time, but the Tang army accurately found it. Who is it?


    "Tuoba Chizhi resigns this villain. Don''t let me wait for a chance. We must let all Tuoba tribes kill and leave no one." Helu said coldly.


    The king of Tianzhu nodded bitterly and said coldly, "these Tang soldiers are just a little interest first."


    However, he did not know that not far from the two armies fighting, Merton led 30 firearms officers and soldiers, looking nervously at the battlefield ahead.


    "Wine worship, general Cheng is in ambush." Xue Rengui looks at the battlefield with a lot of fighting in the distance. Only because Merton''s riding skills are too bad and Cheng Yaojin is eager to catch up, the firearm supervisor led by Merton lags behind the left leader guard. Unexpectedly, it is this slow that made the firearm supervisor escape.


    "When will the army arrive?" Morton''s nervous palm perspired.


    "The cavalry who went back to summon has set out, but the army is still in the rear. It will take an hour to arrive as soon as possible." Xue Rengui said helplessly. Cheng Yaojin was in such a hurry to March. His successive victories made Cheng Yaojin take the routed soldiers lightly, which fell into the trap of Tianzhu king.


    "Worship Lord, what shall we do?" Xue Rengui asked.


    It is reasonable to say that there are only thirty of them at the moment. Even if they retreat, no one will blame them. However, everyone knows that they are the father of Chumo, a close friend of Merton.


    If they are indifferent and watch Cheng Yaojin fight in a tight encirclement, they can''t say it to Cheng Chumo, nor can they say it in the army. At any time, it''s a big taboo to die.


    Merton gritted his teeth and said, "how many grenades did we carry this time?"


    Xue Rengui said without hesitation, "each soldier carries ten, and ten are tied on both sides of the horse."


    Each person carried 30 grenades, and there were 30 firearm supervisors, a total of 900 grenades, plus their weapons, which was all the force of the firearm supervisor.


    Nine hundred grenades! Merton was a little calm in his heart. He turned to look at a group of firearm officers and soldiers and said in a trembling voice: "This wine offering once said that our firearm supervisors and soldiers are the most valuable services. As long as we don''t have to fight when our lives are at stake, we don''t have to fight. Now, although our lives are not at stake, our comrades in arms are in a tight encirclement. In the past, they guarded us and protected our safety. Now it''s time for us to repay."


    Thirty firearm officers and men nodded silently. They couldn''t help thinking that during the decisive battle, the firearm supervisor was attacked several times by Tuyuhun cavalry, that is, the death guard of the left leader guard. The whole firearm supervisor was unharmed. The feeling of robe is unclear anyway.


    "Keep the order, Marcel, man in armor, ready to attack." Merton said in a trembling voice but firm tone.


    Immediately, the whole firearm officers and men stopped their horses, fastened their armor and checked their weapons. When everything was ready, all firearm officers and men could not help but look firm and wait for orders.


    Merton waved his big hand and suddenly prepared to order. Suddenly Xue Rengui dodged and stopped Merton.


    "Lord sacrifice, if I attack at this time, I''m afraid I''ll be lucky to save the left leader guard. I''m afraid these Tuyuhun cavalry will escape without a trace. If I don''t wait for the right time to attack again," Xue Rengui said in a deep voice.


    "But one breath later, the left leader''s guard will be in danger." Merton said anxiously. Although he understood this truth, a quarter of an hour later, many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will die on the battlefield.


    "Wine worship, sir, don''t be kind to the soldiers!" Xue Rengui said seriously. At the moment, there is a vague prototype of a famous general of later generations.


    Merton suddenly became silent. At the moment, the left leading guard was in full strength. If the firearms supervisor opened the way for him, there would be a great possibility of breaking through the siege. Although some people would be sacrificed less at the moment, I''m afraid the harm would be greater if these Tuyuhun cavalry escaped. In this battle, the king Tianzhu surrounded the left leading guard. Although the left leading guard was in danger, it did not stop the Tuyuhun , if we drag the troops close to us and rescue them, these troops will be unable to escape.


    "Kindness does not lead the army!" Merton understood the heaviness of this word for the first time. At present, he no longer insisted and silently calculated the time of the subsequent March.

 Chapter 557

    quarter!


    Two quarters of an hour!


    After a long battle, the left leading guard had already begun to be exhausted and began to suffer large-scale casualties.


    In the battlefield, the Tu army surrounded the left leader guard heavily. A young left leader guard was unfortunately left alone. He was besieged by three Tuyuhun cavalry. Finally, he was exhausted. He was caught in neutral by a Tuyuhun cavalry and knocked off his horse.


    The other two Tuyuhun cavalry suddenly began to surround them ferociously, trying to kill them all.


    "Boom!"


    Just listen to a loud noise, which exploded in mid air, emitting bursts of red smoke, which lasted for a long time in mid air, and immediately attracted everyone''s eyes.


    The young left leader guard took the opportunity to pick down the Tuyuhun soldiers with one shot, snatched a war horse and merged with his fellow robes, and narrowly escaped one life.


    In the north of the battlefield, there was a shocking scene. A team of 30 Tang troops rushed towards the battlefield where tens of thousands of people fought without hesitation. Even if there were only 30 people, there was a momentum of thousands of troops.


    "Firearms warden!"


    Seeing the signal bomb in the air, the left leading guard was heartened. I''m afraid the only one who can use gunpowder in the whole world is the firearm supervisor.


    "Morton!" Cheng Yaojin stabbed a Tuyuhun warrior. Seeing the fireworks in the air, he was moved.


    He naturally knew that Merton was not besieged behind the left leading guard, but there were only more than 30 firearm supervisors. He didn''t expect that Merton would take the initiative to attack in the most glued state of the battlefield.


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly pointed at the horse and shouted, "the reinforcements have arrived. The left leader guard rushes with me."


    Although he knew that the army could not arrive at the moment, what Tang Jun lacked most was exciting news. No matter how good words were, they were not as persuasive as the long-lasting signal bomb in the sky.


    Suddenly, the left leading guard was in a good mood, and his strength increased greatly. He directly killed a blood path in the Tuyuhun army and broke through in the direction of the signal bomb.


    "That mysterious army!"


    Outside the battlefield, King Tianzhu, who was responsible for directing the containment of the left leading guard, was in a trance. He couldn''t help thinking of the loud noise and light under the darkness of the solar eclipse on the first day of May. If it weren''t for this mysterious army, how could Tuyuhun lose so thoroughly? This time, he finally set a trap to surround the Tang army, and this mysterious army disturbed the situation again, Suddenly, new hatred and old hatred surged into my heart.


    When King Tianzhu saw the army with only 30 people, his heart moved. If they learned the secret of this mysterious army, they would not be able to reverse Tuyuhun''s defeat in one fell swoop. At present, he stretched out his hand and suddenly a fierce figure appeared beside him.


    "Helu! You lead 300 guards and bring these 30 people back to the king. Remember to catch them alive as much as possible." King Tianzhu looked at the firearms warden and said with hot eyes.


    "Yes!"


    With a cold smile, Helu immediately led three hundred cavalry to rush towards the firearm prison.


    "Kill others! You must kill the Tang army before the reinforcements arrive." the king of Tianzhu suddenly shouted.


    Suddenly, the urgent horn sounded constantly. The spitting army, which was originally going to rely on the number of people to consume the physical strength of the Tang army, immediately attacked, while the left leading guard also killed the enemy bravely under the encouragement of the reinforcements.


    In an instant, the battle on the battlefield was suddenly cruel several times, and soldiers fell continuously.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    On the open grassland, Qixin Heli is leading the Turkic cavalry to gallop towards JURU Yamamoto at a very fast speed.


    "General, look!" a Turkic cavalry suddenly looked at the red signal bomb in the air ahead and exclaimed.


    "Right there, the whole army accelerated and arrived at the fastest speed." Qixin Heli roared. It was obvious that the signal bomb was the place where the two armies fought.


    A signal bomb takes off, immediately affects everyone''s mind and mind, and will also change the fate of countless people.


    However, Merton, who stirred up the situation on the battlefield, had a blank head and only one purpose in his heart, that is, the whole army assault. When he lit the signal bomb, he understood that there was only one way left for the firearm supervisor, that is, chiseling through the encirclement of the spit army and opening a gap for the left leading guard. Only under the protection of the left leading guard, The firearms warden can live on this battlefield.


    Even if the 300 elite spitting troops led by Helu were about to collide, Merton didn''t stop at all, just waved his big hand and suddenly 30 grenades flew out.


    "Boom, boom!"


    Thirty grenades exploded almost at the same time. Under the great power, three hundred troops fell in half. The most tragic one was Helu, a warrior of Tianzhu tribe. He was very brave. Unfortunately, he was taken care of by the firearm officers and soldiers. Several grenades detonated beside him. He fell to the ground and died without a move.


    Although the remaining cavalry were spared, all the horses were frightened, out of control and fled.


    The sound of the explosion of thirty grenades suddenly rang through the audience, and everyone was surprised. The memory of the decisive battle in his heart immediately surged into his heart. In everyone''s impression, he was holding a weight of about 50 kilograms that could explode and hurt the enemy. However, Tu Jun had originally watched the firearm supervisor riding a horse and had no other weapons in his hand.


    But I didn''t expect that this army had a smaller but equally powerful throwing weapon.


    In this trance, the firearms officers and soldiers took the opportunity to approach the battlefield and threw grenades at the Tuyuhun position as if they didn''t want money.


    "Boom, boom!"


    Under a series of loud noises, the Tuyuhun cavalry within the explosion power range suffered heavy casualties. The Tuyuhun cavalry and horses outside the explosion range were frightened and turned upside down, which could not form an effective interception at all.


    Soon, the firearm supervisor opened the way with a grenade and stormed into Tuyuhun''s position.


    "OK, follow me!" listening to the roar closer and closer, Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed and immediately took the lead to rush.


    The left leader''s guards immediately followed and tried their best to kill the roar. Another round of grenade bombing tore a big hole in the Tuyuhun position, which was originally surrounded like an iron bucket.


    A large number of bloody Tang troops poured out with the smoke of gunpowder. The whole siege position of Tuyuhun was like a flood discharge, and the gap was bigger and bigger.


    When the soldiers of the left leader''s guard and the firearm supervisor met, the firearm supervisor directly changed from the rear army to the front army, led the Tang army to break through the passage full of corpses, and the spitting army dared not stop at all.

 Chapter 558

    With the cooperation of the officers and men of the firearms prison, Tuyuhun''s encirclement was constantly torn, and Tuyuhun''s encirclement was soon smashed in pieces.


    The Tuvalu army was naturally unwilling to fail, but as long as Tuyuhun officers and soldiers went to encircle them, grenades exploded on everyone''s heads. Although the power of grenades was not as powerful as fire medicine bombs, they exploded in the dense Tuvalu army, but their lethality was quite strong. They hung on the Tuvalu Army''s head like a sharp sword, which made the Tuvalu army afraid of hands and feet, which made the Tang army like a tiger.


    Many of the Turkish troops have the intention to snipe at the officers and soldiers of the firearm supervisor. Unfortunately, they have long been escorted by the left leader''s guards like heroes. The protection is strict and does not give the Turkish army any chance at all.


    Soon, under the deterrence of grenades, a large number of left leading guards quickly broke out and left the battlefield.


    "Ha ha ha!"


    Cheng Yaojin, who escaped from his birth, laughed. He thought he was doomed this time, but he didn''t expect that only 30 firearms supervisors saved him.


    "It''s this army again. It''s hateful!" the king of Tianzhu looked at the Tang army''s easy escape from the encirclement. His eyes were red. If there was no threat of grenades, the Tang army could not break through the encirclement so easily.


    "Tell King Tianzhu that the reinforcements of the Tang army are coming, which is less than ten miles away." a scout hurried to report.


    "Less than ten miles!" the shadow of King Tianzhu was shocked. It must be the signal bullet that pointed the way. The reinforcements of the Tang army could come so quickly.


    "Retreat!" said the king of Tianzhu with a helpless look.


    This time, after such a long siege, the Tang army was already exhausted. If there was no disturbance by the firearm supervisor, it would be enough to wipe out the Tang army in this period of time.


    "Dangdang!"


    A burst of rapid voice, Tuyuhun cavalry called for gold to withdraw, and a large number of Tuyuhun cavalry began to retreat one after another.


    "Want to run! It''s so easy." Cheng Yaojin suffered such a big loss. How can he be reconciled to seeing the reaction of spitting out the army and counting the time? It''s obvious that the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty have come.


    Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand. The left leading guard who had just broken through did not retreat but entered. Instead, he followed the spit army and did not allow the spit army to withdraw and push easily. The angry Tuyuhun cavalry turned their horses to counter attack. The left leading guard retreated in the direction of reinforcements without hesitation.


    "This is really Cheng Yaojin!" Merton, who was heavily protected in the army, was stunned. He watched Cheng Yaojin turn the breakthrough war into a guerrilla war.


    "Cunning Tang army!" King Tianzhu looked at the left leader guard who was constantly pestering instead of fighting with the spit army, and couldn''t help scolding shamelessly. In his impression, the Tang army has always been brave and meaningless, and even the strongest enemy will never retreat. When the army in front of him just fought, it was a complete style of Tang soldiers, but who would have thought that as soon as he broke out, he suddenly changed from a gentleman on the battlefield to a street rogue.


    If King Tianzhu knew what kind of style Cheng Yaojin''s court was, he would not be so depressed. What he met was a headache for the whole Tang Dynasty hall.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    With the smoke billowing in the north and the rapid sound of horses'' hoofs getting closer and closer, Datang''s reinforcements finally arrived.


    "Kill!"


    Qixin He Li waved his hand, and a large number of Turkic cavalry rushed into the battlefield one after another.


    The form of the battlefield was immediately reversed. The dead souls of Tuyuhun cavalry took risks and immediately turned their horses to flee. However, they were bitten by Cheng Yaojin''s left leading guard.


    A large number of Turkic cavalry directly cut into the Tuyuhun cavalry, like a sharp blade, separated and surrounded the Tuyuhun cavalry, and finally destroyed it a little bit.


    After a long time, the smoke and dust of the grassland slowly dispersed, revealing that there were dead spitting troops and high spirited Tang troops everywhere.


    "Did king Tianzhu find it?" Merton and other firearm officers had already run out of grenades and did not participate in the pursuit. After the war stopped, he asked immediately.


    Cheng Yaojin shook his head regretfully and said, "seeing that the situation is bad, the old boy abandoned his subordinates and fled earlier. It depends on whether general Qixin Heli can remove this scourge."


    For the Tianzhu king who put the left leader guard in danger, Cheng Yaojin wanted to kill him to pay tribute to the soldiers of the left leader guard who died under the siege. However, the left leader guard had just had a big war and had no strength to pursue again. The task of continuing to pursue the Tianzhu king was handed over to the Turk soldiers of Qixin Heli.


    However, it''s a pity that it didn''t take long for Qixin He Li to win back, but he still couldn''t catch up with Tianzhu king.


    While Qi Xin and he Li returned, Li Jing led the Tang army to finally come. Seeing that the left leading guard turned the corner, he was secretly glad.


    Soon, the story of the war spread all over the army, and the firearms supervisor once again attracted the attention of the whole army.


    Morton led thirty cavalry to rescue the besieged left leader guard, which blew through the Tang army camp like a whirlwind, and all the soldiers were in an uproar.


    Despite the power of grenades, the courage of 30 people to attack the army alone has made countless people look at the firearms prison with new eyes.


    "Thank you!"


    Chumo comes to Merton and hugs him with gratitude.


    "Let go of me, I''m not as good as Longyang, and you haven''t taken a bath for many days." Merton quickly pushed Chumo away and said with a look of disgust.


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi baolinton burst into laughter. Cheng chumerton blushed and waited for the two bad friends. The atmosphere that had been brewing suddenly disappeared.


    "The firearms warden didn''t attack because general Cheng was besieged. Even if any soldiers were trapped, the firearms warden would go to rescue them without hesitation." Merton said positively.


    "Anyway, the Cheng family owes you a favor this time." Chumo patted Merton on the shoulder. Without Merton''s rescue, whether Cheng Yaojin can come out alive is two different things. Without Cheng Yaojin''s pillar, the Cheng family is afraid that it will be difficult to go in the future.


    Fortunately, Tang Jun turned defeat into victory and eliminated Tuyuhun''s last counterattack.


    "I''m afraid there aren''t many troops in Fuyun now. It''s not far from killing Tuyuhun!" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.


    Merton nodded. The Tang troops on both sides successively broke through various tribes in Tuyuhun and eliminated the resistance of Tuyuhun. The power strategy of dismembering Tuyuhun formulated by Li Jing has been fully effective. According to the disclosure of the prisoners of Tuyuhun, there are still 10000 elite King account cavalry in Fuyun''s hands.


    As long as Fuyun is found, the war will be over.


    At present, the Tang army took the initiative to sweep all the Tuyuhun tribes in the west of Chaka Salt Lake. At the same time, the South Road army overcame many difficulties and finally reached Baihai, the famous source of three rivers in later generations, eliminating the last Tuyuhun tribe hiding here.


    However, when the north and South armies swept the grassland, they found no trace of Fu Yun.


    "Qiemo city!"


    All the eyes of the Tang army focused on a small town in the west of Tuyuhun''s map. Various signs showed that Fuyun must retreat to Qiemo city with Tuyuhun''s last strength.


    However, when they saw the long distance on the map, they couldn''t help taking a breath.


    To think of dachimo City, you need to cross the huge Qaidam Basin. There are many desert Gobi, thousands of miles of no man''s land, and a total length of nearly three thousand miles. It can be imagined that this will be an arduous expedition.


    Everyone knew that Fu Yun wanted to use the expedition to bring down the Tang army and make the Tang army afraid.


    "Pursue immediately, even if Fu Yun escapes to the Cape, he will destroy him!" Li Jing waved her long sword and said without hesitation.


    Looking at Li Jing, who is in her 60s, resolutely stepped onto the war horse. This time, everyone had no objection and immediately stepped on the horse. Whether he could finish the first battle and solve Tuyuhun depends on this expedition.

 Chapter 559

    In an oasis on the edge of the Qaidam Basin, more than a dozen small tribes moved here in advance under the order of King Tianzhu, ready to follow Fu Yun''s footsteps, cross the Qaidam Basin and escape to Qiemo.


    In the middle of the oasis, Murong shunzheng and more than a dozen tribal leaders were waiting nervously. Murong shunzheng could have followed Fu Yun to leave at the first time, but he took the initiative to ask to stay and meet the remaining Tuyuhun tribe. Fu Yun didn''t want to see this son. He just fell out of sight and out of mind, so he agreed.


    "King Tianzhu is back!" a sudden exclamation came from outside the tent.


    The leaders quickly opened the military tent and went out. They saw that King Tianzhu came back with only 20 Pro guards, grabbed the food and ate it. It seemed that he had been hungry for several days.


    "King Tianzhu, where are the warriors of my tribe?" a white haired old man looked at the scene in front of him. He looked around, but he didn''t see the warriors of his tribe coming back.


    The king of Tianzhu tried to fill in a few mouthfuls of food. Then he said angrily: "I had surrounded the Tang army and was about to destroy the Tang army, but I was disturbed by the mysterious army. Finally, I fell short and was caught up by the reinforcements of the Tang army. Our army was defeated!"


    "Mysterious army!" Murong Shun''s eyes flashed and couldn''t help thinking of the thunderous roar of that day.


    "Another big defeat."


    All the tribal leaders are in a state of mourning. Those warriors are the backbone of their tribe. They haven''t come back now. It seems that they can''t come back.


    "What can my tribe do?" the old man cried. This war left their tribe crippled. A tribe lost its youth. I''m afraid it will be sad in the future.


    Many tribal leaders are not good at looking at the Tianzhu king one by one. This time, the Tianzhu king has made them suffer. Without 20 years of rest, their tribe may not be able to slow down.


    "What a panic! As long as Khan is still there, I can''t destroy Tuyuhun. I''m sure I can get justice for all the warriors in the future." King Tianzhu was flustered when he saw the eyes of the tribal leaders, so he quickly raised his voice and pretended to be a tiger.


    "Khan!" many tribal leaders were shocked. Fu Yun had been in office for more than 30 years. It can be said that he had accumulated prestige for a long time. The leaders had no choice but to hang their heads.


    When Tianzhu Wang Dun was proud, Fu Yun was his last backer. He believed that as long as Fu Yun was there, even if he lost the three tribes of Tianzhu, one day he would win back the one led by Ben.


    However, he did not see Murong Shun, who had always been a puppet, shining in his eyes. During this period, he did not act as a puppet, but actively had a good relationship with a group of leaders.


    The leaders used to be comfortable and stable in their own tribe as their own local emperor, but they fled in a hurry because of the war and lived a precarious life. Naturally, the leaders have long been dissatisfied. Now they have lost all the warriors of their own tribe. If they were not afraid of Fu Yun''s reputation, they might even have eaten the king of Tianzhu.


    "The Tang army is coming. If you don''t hurry to prepare, we will move west immediately. We can''t leave an animal to the Tang army." the king of Tianzhu said sternly.


    A group of leaders were preparing to reluctantly promise. Suddenly Murong Shun took a big step and said proudly, "King Tianzhu, with a light word, you exposed the lives of tens of thousands of Tuyuhun warriors?"


    All eyes immediately focused on Murong Shun. No one thought that Murong Shun would stand out for them at this time.


    When King Tianzhu saw Murong Shun''s face similar to that of a Han man, he couldn''t help but sneer: "who should I be? It''s the former crown prince! Are the Han people coming and you have a backer?"


    The king of Tianzhu didn''t take Murong Shun in his eyes at all. Fu Yun didn''t like Murong Shun. The king of Tianzhu naturally liked it. He didn''t give Murong shun a little stumbling block on weekdays.


    Murong Shun''s face suddenly became gloomy. The title of the former crown prince was a disgrace to his life. He not only lost his position that he should inherit, but also endured humiliation for 15 years because of his appearance.


    To everyone''s surprise, Murong Shun nodded without hesitation and said, "yes, the Han people are my backers."


    The king of Tianzhu was stunned. He didn''t expect Murong Shun to admit it so readily. At that moment, he said with great joy: "you haven''t taken down the traitor yet. In my opinion, the traitor must have tipped off the defeat of our army."


    "I don''t see who dares! Fu Yun has fled to Qiemo and has only 10000 troops. How can he compete with the Tang army? Now what I need for Tuyuhun is not how to defeat the Tang Dynasty, but how to survive without subjugating the country and destroying the family. Murong Shun is the only chance for Tuyuhun to survive." Murong Shun said proudly.


    The leaders of Tuyuhun couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. Murong Shun is also half a Han man. If he defected to the Tang army, I''m afraid he would be the most suitable person to protect the tribes.


    "King Tianzhu, I don''t want to run away, I want to live." the old man led the first to stand up and say, now they have lost the warriors of the tribe. Even if they cross the deserted Qaidam Basin, they will only be merged by other tribes.


    Other tribal leaders also nodded one after another. There are some women, children, old and weak in their tribe. I''m afraid they can''t go far at all. Instead of being caught up by Tang Jun, they might as well take the initiative to surrender to Tang Jun. with Murong Shun, they can still live.


    "You''re plotting, so you''re not afraid that Khan will come back and kill your whole family?" the king of Tianzhu said in horror. At the moment, he had heard bursts of shouts outside the tent, and the pro guards he brought back screamed repeatedly. It was obvious that they were being besieged.


    Soon the cry of killing outside the tent was silent. Tianzhu Wang Dun was pale and gray.


    "Since Khan abandoned us and fled, we will also abandon him. We will re-establish a new Khan, murongshun Khan." the old man stood on murongshun''s side with ties and leaders.


    The king of Tianzhu said with a tragic smile, "do you think Tang Jun will believe your defection?"


    Murong Shun smiled coldly and said sternly, "if you want to surrender, you must have a name. Your head of Tianzhu king is the best name."


    With the flash of a knife, a touch of blood suddenly sprayed on the felt tent, and the king of Tianzhu, who was arrogant in Tuyuhun, was finally killed.


    Murong Shun laughed loudly with a bloody steel knife. He swallowed it for 15 years. Today, he finally came out of his evil spirit.


    "See Khan!" the leaders fell to the ground one after another, regardless of whether they recognized Murong Shun in their hearts, and now Murong Shun is their only savior.


    "What king Tianzhu is dead! Murong Shun is a Khan?" Li Jing said in surprise. The Tang army had just chased him for a short distance when he heard the news that the king Tianzhu killed by Murong Shun ''the whole country'' defected.


    Cheng Yaojin nodded and said, "the head has been sent. It has been verified by someone. It is indeed the king of Tianzhu."


    He couldn''t help sighing. He didn''t expect that the king of Tianzhu, who almost killed him, would die like this.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "let Li Daliang go to take over those Tuyuhun tribes, collect their weapons and horses, and settle on the spot."


    "Yes!" a messenger hurried away immediately.


    "General, Murong Shun is still waiting outside to see the general. I don''t know the general..." Duan Zhixuan said.


    Li Jing waved his hand and said, "our goal is Fu Yun, not Murong Shun. Inform Li Daliang to let him look after Murong Shun. His majesty will be of great use."


    When the army roared past Murong Shun, he didn''t pay attention to him at all. Murong Shun was still respectful. He was relieved when the army left. Tang Jun just collected the weapons and horses of these tribes. It seems that he is on the right road.

 Chapter 560

    The army led by Fu Yun was only 10000 people. This time, Li Jing left a large number of luggage in juruchuan. Among the army, he selected 30000 elite cavalry and gathered all the compressed dry food left in the whole army, which was enough for the expedition rations of 30000 army.


    The rations of the officers and soldiers were solved. For the sake of water and pasture for the war horses, Li Jing chose the route at the southern edge of the Qaidam Basin. The mountain roads here are difficult to walk, but at least there are some sparse vegetation, seasonal rivers formed by melting snow from the snow mountains, and there are some grasslands on both sides of the river. In this way, the supply pressure of the war horses is greatly reduced.


    In the Qaidam Basin, in addition to the places where rivers flow, more areas are the endless Gobi desert, which can''t see the marginal desolation at a glance, and even birds are very rare.


    In the vast Gobi desert, a lonely Tang army made a hard expedition against the wind and sand.


    The army crossed the deserted desert. In order to take a shortcut, it also crossed the desert, crossed the Altun mountain, and finally reached the border of Qiemo.


    A large number of scouts are released. Their goal today is to find the Cherchen river before sunset. Once they reach the Cherchen River, it is not far from Qiemo.


    "Cherchen river has been found, twenty miles ahead!" suddenly the former army scouts ran back and said loudly.


    "Ow!"


    Immediately, all the officers and men of the army cheered one after another. Without waiting for Li Jing''s order, they drove their horses and galloped towards the front.


    For the cavalry, the distance of 20 Li was just a full sprint. Soon, a wide river came into the sight of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.


    The thirsty war horses rushed to the river and drank the cold river. The Tang army officers and soldiers also plunged into the river and drank the same river with the war horses.


    Qin Huaiyu suddenly raised his head from the river, roared happily, wiped the river all over his face, looked at the sunset reflected in the river and dyed the river red, and couldn''t help sighing: "the desert is lonely and straight, and the long river falls in yen. Merton''s poem is penetrating."


    Many literate generals can''t help nodding and looking at Merton. They have seen the magnificent and vast northwest all the way. I''m afraid only Merton''s poem is the most appropriate.


    Duan Zhixuan shook his head and said, "according to me, it''s very appropriate that the people of the long march have not returned in the Qin, Ming and Han Dynasties. I''m afraid we''ve moved all the way here from Chang''an city. I''m afraid it''s at least 5000 miles! Counting the return journey, I''m afraid it''s a long distance."


    Li Jing could not help feeling that when he first set out for the battle, he had expected that the battle would be very hard, but he did not expect that it would be so difficult. The Tang army not only had to overcome the bad natural conditions, cross the complex and unfamiliar terrain, but also carried out long-distance operations and large-scale detours in the absence of food, supplies and backup, tracked the main force of Fuyun and fought a decisive battle with it, Tang Jun''s slightest negligence would lead to an irreparable situation.


    Along the way, Li Jing was cautious, fearing that one wrong step would put Tang Jun in danger,


    Fortunately, all this is coming to an end. As long as you cross the Cherchen River, Qiemo city is close at hand.


    On the third day, the eager 30000 Tang cavalry finally approached Qiemo city. However, to everyone''s surprise, Qiemo city was empty without a shadow.


    Only the cow dung all over the ground and the gnawing grassland prove that a large number of cattle and sheep have stayed here.


    "Let Fuyun run away again." Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    Li Jing stood in the empty Qiemo city and looked embarrassed. This time, the Tang army was in the air again. Fu Yun was old and spicy. He was the most cunning and difficult opponent he met.


    "Fuyun can''t run far. He can evacuate for up to ten days." Merton said with certainty, looking at the traces of life under his feet.


    Li Jing''s face slowed slightly. The distance of the 10th day was not long. When Fu Yun evacuated, he carried a large number of cattle and sheep. He couldn''t walk fast at all. What we need to determine now is the direction of Fu Yun''s escape.


    "Our army chases from the East, and the west is the vast desert. Fuyun can only escape in the north and south directions." Cheng Yaojin said.


    "Khotan and Gaochang." Li Jingning emphasized that Khotan is the noble man of Fuyun. When Fuyun was chased by the Sui army, it was Khotan who took him in. It can be said that it was Fuyun''s first choice.


    However, it is not impossible for Fu Yun to go the opposite way, mislead the Tang army to pursue Khotan and change to Gaochang country. Gaochang is a powerful country in the western regions. He has always refused to accept the Tang Dynasty and would like to accept Fu Yun.


    If you make a mistake, I''m afraid you''ll never catch Fu Yun again.


    "Divide the troops immediately. Cheng Yaojin led fifteen thousand cavalry to pursue Khotan. He would have led the rest of the cavalry to pursue north. Once it is confirmed that the pursuit is wrong, turn back immediately." Li Jing said firmly.


    No matter how cunning the fox is, it can''t escape the hand of the hunter. Although Fu Yun is cunning, Li Jing has made a comprehensive plan and brought 30000 elite cavalry. He has an absolute advantage in military strength.


    "Yes!"


    Cheng Yaojin immediately took the command. The Tang army split up again, one south and one north, and galloped away. The Tang army has pursued three thousand miles. How can it care more than a few hundred miles.


    Qiemo city was built because Qiemo river has abundant water and fertile grasslands on both sides.


    "Drive!"


    Cheng Yaojin led a large number of cavalry up the Qiemo River, tracking the trace of Fuyun all the way, without missing any trace.


    "It seems that we are very lucky!" on the third day of pursuing again, Cheng Yaojin pointed to the pieces of fresh cow dung under his feet and laughed happily.


    Merton also breathed a sigh of relief. The traces of cattle and sheep life became more and more obvious. It seemed that the cat and mouse game was coming to an end.


    "The whole army is shrinking. Don''t scare the snake." Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand and said insidiously.


    Immediately, the Tang army began to gather in formation. Instead of making a fire, the Tang army picked up compressed dry food one by one and ate it on the spot. Even the Scout''s search radius was reduced by half. According to Cheng Yaojin''s strategic intention, he would rather find the Tu army later than eat all the Tu army.


    In the upper reaches of Qiemo River, a large number of Tuyuhun herdsmen hurried along with a large number of cattle and sheep. Even if there were fresh and tender grass sprouts along the way, these cattle and sheep could only bite in a hurry, and were immediately driven away by the hurried herdsmen to continue marching.


    Around these cattle and sheep, a large number of Tuyuhun officers and men are escorted. This is Fuyun''s last starting capital. Naturally, we should pay close attention to it and allow no loss.


    "Kill!"


    Suddenly the ground shook, and a large number of Tang troops came from behind.


    "Tang Jun is coming!"


    At the moment, the Tuyuhun soldiers were like a bird frightened by a bow. Seeing that the Tang army was killing thousands of miles away, they had no will to resist and were ready to collapse at one touch.


    In this battle, five thousand Tuyuhun cavalry were killed again and a large number of cattle and sheep were captured. However, Cheng Yaojin doesn''t value these at all, but only wants one person, Fu Yun.


    "General, mohou, our army found Fuyun''s account!" a personal soldier came to report.


    Merton and Cheng Yaojin were so happy that they hurried forward.


    This time, will you catch Fu Yun?

 Chapter 561

    Cheng Yaojin and Merton couldn''t wait to hurry up and soon came to a baggage convoy besieged by the Tang army. Around these baggage convoys, there was a guard of honor flag of King Tuyuhun''s tent.


    "General! Mo sacrifice!" seeing the two coming, the besieged soldiers quickly made way for a road.


    Merton and Cheng Yaojin dismounted and saw Yingyan kneeling all over the ground. They couldn''t help but feel a move in their hearts. It was obviously Fuyun''s huge harem. It was a privileged harem on weekdays. Many concubines cried and trembled with their young children.


    "Stop howling! Where''s Fuyun?"


    Cheng Yaojin roared. He came over in high spirits. However, he searched all the places of the king''s tent, but he still didn''t see any trace of Fu Yun.


    Cheng Yaojin''s face was full of flesh, and he was wearing armor and fully armed, which was even more frightening. It was good that he didn''t roar. As a result, these Yingyan cried harder.


    Cheng Yaojin was furious and was about to get angry when a pure Mandarin sounded among the Yingyan group.


    "Don''t be angry, general. These are barbarian women. They don''t understand the words of the Tang Dynasty. How can they answer the general''s questions?" I saw a dignified middle-aged woman stand up in the crowd.


    Merton and Li Jing looked at the middle-aged woman''s unique face of Han women. They couldn''t help looking at each other. A name flashed in their hearts: Princess Guanghua.


    "Is it Princess Guanghua? Cheng Mou is polite here." facing Princess Guanghua, Cheng Yaojin is a big man who rarely pulls etiquette.


    "It''s Duke Cheng. It''s rare that Duke Cheng still remembers the last evil of the previous dynasty." Princess Guanghua said faintly. As kedun of Tuyuhun and nominally Fuyun''s wife, she has her own news source on weekdays. Naturally, she heard the name of biting gold.


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help choking. He was part of the downfall of the Sui Dynasty. It''s reasonable to say that Cheng Yaojin was still her enemy.


    "Princess Guanghua went into Qinghai alone and sacrificed her life for the people all over the world. She is meritorious to the people all over the world. How can she be called the last evil of the previous dynasty?" Merton said quickly.


    Princess Guanghua turned her eyes and suddenly saw Merton standing next to Cheng Yaojin. She couldn''t help brightening her eyes and said, "is this the famous Mo family son and Mo Hou of the Tang Dynasty?"


    Merton was stunned and quickly solemnly saluted: "Merton of the Mohist family has seen the Guanghua princess. He has only a thin name. He didn''t expect to enter the princess''s ears."


    "Just a thin name?" Princess Zhan Yan of Guanghua smiled. "Marquis Mo is not a thin name. He doesn''t make peace, cut land and make compensation. His ministers guard the country, and the king dies. Marquis Mo forbids the peace marriage system on his own. In Guanghua''s heart, your name is more important than anyone else."


    As she spoke, the princess of Guanghua couldn''t help her tears. The princess of the past dynasty had always come to a miserable end, not to mention her former princess. In addition, Yang Guang made use of the princess of Guanghua to spit out grain Hun. In this way, the days of the princess of Guanghua can be imagined.


    If it hadn''t occupied the position of kedun, the rightful wife in Tugu''s nickname, I''m afraid it would have disappeared silently.


    Merton could not help sighing in his heart: "this is a poor woman. Everyone owes her."


    However, there is still something to do at the moment. Merton has only to say, "Princess highness, now Datang has occupied the whole of Qinghai, and the battle of Tu Gu Hun has been decided."


    Princess Guanghua said with a wry smile, "Marquis Mo really thinks highly of Guanghua. At this time, does Marquis Mo still think that Fu Yun will believe me? Will he tell me his whereabouts?"


    Cheng Yaojin and Merton couldn''t help Hao Ran for a while. Yang Guang attacked Tuyuhun before, and then Datang attacked Tuyuhun again. Although they were two dynasties, they were all Han people in front of Fu Yun. As a Han Guanghua princess, how could Fu Yun tell her her whereabouts.


    Merton moved in his heart, looked at the Tuyuhun woman who knelt down and said, "Fuyun may not tell you, but how can he not tell others."


    Just ask, how can Fu Yun keep such a big movement from leaking and not revealing any news.


    Princess Guanghua shook her head and said firmly on her face, "Guanghua has violated the three cardinal principles and committed heinous crimes. How can she betray her husband again."


    Although Fuyun is not good to him, over the years, Fuyun has not removed her kedun position. She has only guilt and no resentment for Fuyun.


    When Cheng Yaojin saw that Princess Guanghua didn''t cooperate, he suddenly looked helpless. The woman in front of him had a special identity and was not easy to force. At present, the time is tight. If he pursues at a moment later, Fu Yun may escape from Shengtian.


    "What about Mo boy?" Cheng Yaojin whispered.


    Merton smiled bitterly. As long as she refused to say, I''m afraid no one could take out the news from her mouth.


    "Your boy is not very good at the princess. Think of a move quickly!" Cheng Yaojin said generously.


    Merton''s face suddenly turned black. What is he doing to the princess.


    Suddenly, Merton''s eyes lit up. Cheng Yaojin''s words were dirty, but they gave him an inspiration.


    "The boy has not congratulated his royal highness yet," said Morton with a solemn face.


    The princess of Guanghua was stunned and said bitterly, "Mo Hou is laughing at Guanghua. My body has been reduced to this step. What''s the joy?"


    He said, "how can a kid make a fool of himself? Just half a month ago, your son, the king of Tianzhu, was openly promoted to shun Khan by all the tribes, and the whole country turned to Datang. The royal highness of the princess was promoted to the Empress Dowager. Is this not a great joy?"


    Princess Guanghua was surprised and said, "what, shun''er is still alive!"


    She fled all the way west with Fu Yun. There was no news source in the rear. I''m afraid her son, Murong Shun, was the most concerned in her heart.


    After Princess Guanghua was ecstatic, she realized the meaning of Merton''s words.


    "Mohou, that''s true!" Princess Guanghua looked at Merton and couldn''t believe it. Princess Guanghua had experienced too many intrigues and could not help but doubt the authenticity of Merton''s words.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "the princess is the hero of my Han people. Even if you cheat, no one will cheat you. You can promise in the name of the Mohist school that there is no falsehood."


    At present, Merton told the story, coupled with the reputation of Mohism, Princess Guanghua believed Merton''s words and couldn''t help being sad and happy.


    Happy nature is that her son has gone through all kinds of hardships and finally reached that position. Sadly, she is afraid to betray Fuyun again.


    Day after day, since Murong Shun became a Khan, Tuyuhun could only have one Khan. It is conceivable that Princess Guanghua was tangled between her husband and son.


    Even Cheng Yaojin''s eyes brightened and he couldn''t help but stretch out his thumb and praise Merton''s wonderful move.


    Now Murong Shun has established a new Khan, and his status must be unstable. If Fu Yun is alive, I''m afraid he will come to no good end. Only when Fu Yun dies, can Murong Shun''s new Khan stay for a long time.


    "Mohou is so calculating!" Princess Guanghua said with a tragic smile.


    Merton''s face was Hao Ran, but he said without hesitation: "please make a decision as soon as possible. This is a win-win situation for Datang and brother Murong."


    Princess Guanghua twisted her face and struggled in her heart. Finally, she said, "please wait for me for a while."


    Seeing Princess Guanghua walk into a group of Yingyan and keep asking, Merton and Cheng Yaojin are relieved. Between her husband and son, Princess Guanghua finally chose her son.


    Seeing the bleak back of Guanghua princess, Merton couldn''t help but flash a word in his heart.


    "May the past be born again. Don''t be born in the house of an emperor."

 Chapter 562

    "Tu lunchuan!"


    Soon, Princess Guanghua came the accurate news. A floating empress came the news that Fu Yun had taken the lead in leading 3000 cavalry to flee to Tulun river.


    Merton looked at the simple map in front of him with a dignified face. There was only a bare point on it, an oasis in the Tarim desert. Merton believed that the map was 100% inaccurate.


    "Princess Guanghua won''t lie to us. Let us enter the vast desert and die on purpose!" Cheng Yaojin winced as he looked at TU lunchuan''s position.


    Eight hundred miles of the vast sea, deserted, no supplies, no water, only the yellow sand everywhere. Once you enter the desert, if you lose it, you will be doomed.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the news should not be false. Now I hope we can find Fu Yun. I''m afraid it''s Princess Guanghua."


    If Fu Yun is allowed to escape from heaven, I''m afraid the position of Murong Shun''s Khan will never be stable. Only when Fu Yun dies or is caught in Chang''an City, Murong Shun will have a chance to become a real Tuyuhun Khan.


    Cheng Yaojin nodded and hesitated. Tianda''s credit is in front of him, but the risk is also great. This is not the desert edge of Qaidam Basin, but deep into Tarim desert.


    Chase or not!


    Cheng Yaojin was caught in a tangle. At this stage of the war, the 3000 cavalry of Fu Yun could not affect the overall situation. Even if he returned to the dynasty, the whole army was a great achievement.


    But it''s a great honor to be able to surrender and return. Of course, the profit from chasing is great, but in the face of the vast desert, even if his nerve is as thick as Cheng Yaojin, he can''t help but be afraid.


    Once you step into the vast desert, I''m afraid it''s unknown whether you can return. I''m afraid even if you have great military achievements, you can only take advantage of Chumo, an unfilial son.


    "Mo boy, what do you say?" Cheng Yaojin touched Merton nearby and asked.


    Merton turned a blind eye and said, "you are a forward general. You has the final say. Your old man orders to cross the eight hundred mile sea, and the boy will accompany him."


    Cheng Yaojin said angrily, "it''s a vast sea of eight hundred miles. Even the local people are afraid of it. We''re not familiar with the place. Once there''s a deviation in the pursuit direction, we can''t catch it. If we fall into the vast desert, I''m afraid we''ll lose the whole army!


    There is no precise navigation at this time. Once there is a deviation in the direction, looking for an oasis in the vast desert is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Once the army does not accurately reach its destination, it will be lost in the vast desert. I''m afraid the whole army will be destroyed and no one knows.


    Merton said in his heart, "if Uncle Cheng just wants to determine the direction, it''s easy to do!"


    "Seriously!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton suspiciously and said, "don''t fool me with looking at the sun or the Big Dipper. I know more than you. Once the wind and sand rise, it will blow for several days, and block out the sun. What people see is only five steps. Once we get lost and run out of water, we will have no choice but to die."


    Merton Lang said in a loud voice, "how can the boy teach others in front of Uncle Cheng with the method of pediatrics? The boy''s method can clearly and accurately confirm the direction even in the dark wind and sand."


    Merton said, took out a round box with a big palm from his arms and handed it to Cheng Yaojin.


    "What is this?"


    When Cheng Yaojin opened it, he saw a long pointer in the middle of the round box. There were four directions in the East and northwest around the pointer. Above the pointer, the unique glass of Mohism was covered above, which was particularly exquisite.


    Merton said proudly, "this is the compass! As long as we hold this sharp weapon, not to mention the desert, but the vast sea, we can come and go freely."


    What Merton took out was the famous compass of later generations. The compass was very famous, but it was quite simple to make. I''m afraid the most difficult thing was to make the magnetic needle. The Mohist village gathered skilled craftsmen to make a finished product.


    "Compass?"


    Cheng Yaojin took the compass in his hand and played it carefully for a few times. He suddenly found the beauty of the compass. No matter where he went and how to shake the round box, the arrow under the glass always pointed to the south.


    Cheng Yaojin''s heart moved. The reason why he lost his way in the desert was because they were all vast Yellow sand and had no reference at all. However, with the compass, the South had been determined. Isn''t it clear at a glance from the east to the north.


    "It''s amazing!" Cheng Yaojin exclaimed. Once he had it, the Tang army would immediately have the capital to cross the desert.


    Merton said with a smile, "Uncle Cheng doesn''t have to worry about chasing the wrong direction this time!"


    Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "ha ha, Fu Yun, this time, where else do you want to escape?"


    With Cheng Yaojin''s order, soon 3000 left leading guards and cavalry gathered and were ready to set out.


    "Uncle Cheng is going to chase Fu Yun like this." Merton rode the Jue Ying with the firearm officers and men and rode to the road.


    Cheng Yaojin didn''t understand: "what''s wrong? These are my elite soldiers. It''s more than enough to chase down the lost dog Fu Yun."


    Morton shook his head and said, "the soldiers of the Tang army are naturally invincible, but in the desert, no matter how brave the soldiers are, they will die of thirst. Uncle Cheng, why don''t you ride three people like a boy and bring enough water and food."


    "One man, three riders!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the configuration of the firearm monitor and was stunned. Each of the officers and men in the firearm monitor was three riders.


    Three riders per person is the most luxurious ration for cavalry. If a cavalry rides three riders per person, he will come freely at any time. No cavalry can catch up with it at all.


    However, Merton rode three people at the moment, not for a long-distance attack, but to carry enough water and food. All the horses carried slow water bags on their backs.


    Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton sarcastically and said: "Mo boy, I admit you have some bad ideas, but I''m an expert in the army when it comes to the marching war. Looking at your compass, I''ll give you some advice. In the desert, there is no water supply at all. Although one person riding three horses can carry more water, the water and food consumed by a horse are several times that of a man. The consumption alone is enough to drag you down, let alone It''s hard to say whether we can get to Tulun River after Fu Yun. "


    Merton listened and said with a smile, "Uncle Cheng said very well. It''s really an old way, but the boy didn''t say to bring all these horses back. The war horse that the cavalry really needs is just one."


    Cheng Yaojin''s eyes suddenly flashed, and he couldn''t believe looking at the firearm supervisor''s three riders.


    According to Merton, in order to reduce the loss of water, the fire monitor will directly kill horses to reduce the loss. It is even possible that only one of the three horses can come back.


    There are only a few firearm supervisors, but they have lost dozens of horses, and the 3000 cavalry led by Cheng Yaojin. If according to Merton''s suggestion, one person with three horses, that is 9000 horses, it is likely that 6000 horses will be buried in the vast desert.


    Needless to say, the value of a war horse is not cheap. Even in Qinghai, horses are not worth money. Rao is so. The value of 6000 war horses is at least more than 100000.


    According to Merton''s meaning, the six thousand war horses worth more than ten thousand yuan should be discarded into the vast desert.


    "Black sheep!"


    After everyone heard it, they could not help but emerge the nickname of Merton''s famous Tang Dynasty. This time, the defeat of the Mohist school was not a small number, but worth more than ten thousand!

 Chapter 563

    The commander of the left leading guard, with his gray head on his head, trembled and pointed to Merton, who hated iron and steel and said, "I can''t control how you lose your family, Mo family. This is the left leading guard. You''re going to lose my left leading guard''s family at once!"


    The whole left leading guard only has more than 10000 people, and it is mainly infantry. This time, if it hadn''t captured a large number of Tuyuhun war horses, how could everyone of the left leading guard be able to ride on the war horses? According to Merton''s idea, the left leading guard lost 6000 war horses at once, and directly let the left leading guard return to the front overnight.


    Merton said faintly: "One person and one ride is to bring all the drinking water, but it can only support us to Tulun river at most. However, if Fu Yun misleads us, or if Fu Yun leaves Tulun river ahead of time and destroys the water source, I''m afraid you will all be buried in the desert. If we ride three times, we can ensure that we can have enough water source and take the initiative. The safety and security of 3000 soldiers Six thousand war horses. Lord Sima can measure them by himself. "


    Immediately, Sima Leng, the left leading guard, was there, struggling in his heart, especially bleeding.


    Cheng Yaojin bit his teeth and suddenly shouted, "commander Ma, how many Tuyuhun horses have our army captured in this battle?"


    The commander of the army blurted out, "four thousand."


    Cheng Yaojin glared and angrily said, "what 4000 horses were taken away when the defeated soldiers fled, and let the left leader Wei lose more than 2000."


    Cheng Yaojin took a piece of skin and immediately wiped out the account of 6000 war horses.


    The commander of the army was stunned. He opened his mouth and wanted to refute. He looked at the soldiers of the vigorous left leader guard, ruthlessly swallowed the original words into his stomach and said, "it''s the old eye of the lower officer. Please forgive me for counting wrong."


    Everyone knows that such accounts can''t stand investigation. Once they are found out, the army commander''s horse bears the greatest responsibility. However, at the moment, the army commander''s horse doesn''t hesitate to wipe out the accounts of the 6000 war horses according to Cheng Yaojin''s instructions.


    "When the order goes down, one man and three riders will bring me enough water." Cheng Yaojin shouted.


    Soon, the most extravagant ration of the Tang army was born in the left leading guard. One person rode three times. Finally, when there were not enough captured horses, the soldiers of the left leading guard directly let the horses out.


    "Mo boy, I hope we can catch up with Fu Yun this time, otherwise we will lose a lot this time!" Cheng Yaojin said with a bitter smile. 6000 war horses have been lost, even he is frightened!


    Merton laughed, threw away his compass and said, "Uncle Cheng, with this and sufficient drinking water, how can the 800 mile vast sea stop us? As long as we can capture Fu Yun and completely eliminate the last remnants of Tuyuhun, 6000 horses are worth it."


    Cheng Yaojin nodded fiercely and looked at Merton with satisfaction. Merton, in addition to losing his family, made people feel relieved to do things.


    "Let''s go!"


    Cheng Yaojin gave a big drink, and immediately three thousand cavalry suddenly stepped on the horse and resolutely stepped into the vast desert.


    Princess Guanghua looked at the figure disappearing in the yellow sand and sighed to herself. Tang junbing''s armour was sharp, tenacious and various tricks emerged one after another. This time, Fu Yun was not wronged!


    "Princess Guanghua, please come back. General Li will come to meet soon!" advised the left leader Wei''s left deputy general.


    At the beginning, the two armies made an appointment. Once they confirmed that they were chasing the wrong one, they immediately turned back to meet. Now that the left leader Wei is chasing the right direction, Li Jing naturally chased the wrong one. I believe he will meet soon.


    "Where are the heralds?" Li Jing shouted.


    "The villain is here, see the general!" a herald quickly lined up.


    Li Jing sealed the good news, handed it to the herald and said, "the general will send 100 cavalry to escort you. One person will ride three, and send it to Chang''an city at the fastest speed."


    "Yes!" the herald immediately received the good news, ordered 100 soldiers and hurried away.


    When the Deputy General of the left leader Wei heard that one man rode three, he couldn''t help trembling in his heart and quickly hung his head.


    Li Jing and others naturally did not notice the abnormal festival of the left leader, deputy general Wei, but looked at the yellow sand in the distance. This time, Cheng Yaojin and Merton ventured into the 800 mile sea, facing more difficulties than the western expedition of the Tang army.


    If they can come back, the Tang army will surely win the battle, but if they fall into the vast sea of 800 miles, then


    Suddenly, the hearts of the Tang army were covered with Yin and Yang.


    "Keep the order! We''ll wait here for the return of the left leader guard." Li Jing ordered.


    In any case, there must be a result of this war. Since we set out together, we should naturally return to Korea together.

 Chapter 564

    In the long yellow sand, 3000 left leading guards stepped on the yellow sand and walked hard step by step. At the moment, Tang Jun just encountered the first problem on the first day of entering the desert.


    "Hot!"


    The sun is scorching, and it''s June, the hottest time.


    However, the heat in the desert is not the heat in the flat land. The whole desert is like a steamer, emitting a curl of hot gas. Looking at it, there is a feeling of shaking.


    Moreover, there was no grass in the desert, and the sun directly shone on the gravel. Soon it became hot. The war horses stepped on it and were easy to be scalded. Not to mention the fully armed armor of the Tang army, it was hot in a short time. The Tang army had to take them off, put them on the saddle and March in civilian clothes.


    Drive! "


    The three thousand left leading guards rode their horses and marched firmly in one direction in the scorching sun, stepping on the hot yellow sand and braved the wind and sand.


    "In this ghost weather, if we were in Chang''an City, we would hide in the house, put ice cubes and eat ice cream. I don''t know how cool it would be." Merton couldn''t bear the heat in his heart, thought about the delicious ice cream and left saliva again and again.


    "Let alone ice cream, it''s just a pot of cold water. I''m satisfied." Cheng Yaojin picked up the kettle in his hand and took a hard sip. It''s too hot. Even the water he carries is warm and doesn''t quench his thirst at all.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton looked up at the hot sun, wiped his sweat, picked up the kettle, drank two mouthfuls, such as the burning throat, added a little water to avoid the crisis of dehydration.


    He thought he had done a lot of work and thought he was safe. However, when he stepped into the desert, he finally found that he underestimated the desert and underestimated the bad weather in the desert, and his preparation was still not enough.


    "Nephew Mo Xian, our army is in the right direction!" Cheng Yaojin quenched his thirst a little, looked at the yellow sand in front of him and said with worry.


    Merton picked up the compass, looked at the direction of the pointer and nodded.


    Cheng Yaojin breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the direction is correct, they will always reach tulunchuan.


    "According to the speed of our March, it is possible to reach Tulun River in at least three days." Merton measured the positions of Tang army and Tulun River on the map.


    There are deserts everywhere in the desert. The geology is very soft. It is not suitable for war horses to run. The advantages of the cavalry of the Tang army have not been brought into play, and the marching speed of the army is very slow.


    "No, quicksand!" suddenly the striker shouted.


    Merton and Cheng Yaojin hurried to the horse. They saw a soldier and his horse trapped in quicksand. The war horse was trapped in quicksand and sank continuously with the cavalry.


    More than a dozen soldiers went to the rescue, but they also fell into it. Seeing that more soldiers wanted to rescue, Merton quickly shouted, "don''t move. This is quicksand. Even more people can''t fill it. Don''t struggle. Lie on the quicksand. The more you move, the faster you sink."


    More than a dozen soldiers trapped in the sand did what they said. Sure enough, the sinking speed decreased greatly, but they still sank a little bit. Among them, the soldiers who first fell into quicksand were about to fall into their neck, leaving only their hands and head outside.


    "Nephew Mo, find a way quickly!" Cheng Yaojin said anxiously. These are all the elite soldiers he trained. These soldiers survived fighting with Tuyuhun. I''m afraid it''s not worth dying in the quicksand.


    "Come on, throw the rope," Morton said hurriedly.


    There were ready-made ropes in the army. Many soldiers directly untied their belts and tied them together. Cheng Yaojin took them and threw them at the soldiers trapped in the sand.


    He threw it five times in a row until the soldier had only one hand exposed. Then he grabbed the belt. All the soldiers immediately made efforts and pulled the man out.


    In this way, all the soldiers of the Tang army trapped in quicksand were rescued.


    "General, there is quicksand in front of us. Our army can''t pass by." the army commander Ma came to report with a sad face.


    The old boy was very worried. Merton, a black sheep of the family, asked to go with the army and strive to preserve these horses as much as possible.


    "It seems that there is only a detour!"


    Cheng Yaojin frowned. The calm desert in front of him had long disappeared where the war horses had been swallowed. Who would have thought there was such a killing opportunity in the dark.


    Merton nodded, bowed his head and drew a big half circle on the map. He was responsible for calculating how many roads Tang Jun had spared, and also for returning Tang Jun to the right route.


    The army walked around for twenty miles to avoid the quicksand area. When the Tang army returned to the correct route, night had quietly fallen.


    In a simple camp, Merton, Cheng Yaojin and the military commander Ma are looking at the simple map in their hands and discussing the military affairs.


    "General, 300 horses have run out of material!" a school captain opened his tent and whispered to report.


    The hearts of the people were heavy. The material of 300 war horses had been used up. According to the previous agreement, these war horses would be killed to reduce the loss of the Tang army.


    The commander of the army trembled and begged, "general, you should think twice! That''s 300 war horses!"


    Cheng Yaojin was also distressed and couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    "Mo offered wine." the army commander Ma couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    Merton said softly, "it''s just a day to enter the desert at the moment. If these war horses supplement a little supplies, maybe they can return the same way."


    "Well, that''s a wonderful plan," said the army commander Ma, ecstatic. In this way, at least 300 war horses can be saved for the Tang army.


    However, Cheng Yaojin shook his head firmly and said, "if you don''t take charge of the army, not to mention the horse! In the desert, how can you have the kindness of women and people? Is the consumption of 300 war horses a small number? At the moment, it''s important to pursue and subdue the promise, and how can you lose big because of small things."


    Merton nodded immediately. Compared with these soldiers, he was moved with compassion at the last minute.


    "In the future, the army commander will kill the horses." Cheng Yaojin unexpectedly issued an order, "remember, these horse blood must be released for the soldiers to drink and reduce drinking water."


    Now the army is in the vast desert and the weather is so hot. If it can''t save water as much as possible, I''m afraid the Tang army will break through. At other times, Cheng Yaojin may agree to Merton''s request. However, at the moment, he is interested in the horse blood of these 300 war horses.


    The commander of the army Ma gave a heavy meal and said with a painful face, "I will obey!"


    Just as the commander of the army turned and left, Cheng Yaojin suddenly said, "remember, the March chronicle says that our army is walking in the 800 mile vast sea. Soldiers are short of water and stab horses to drink blood."


    The army commander Ma stumbled and left in grief and anger.

 Chapter 565

    The hot horse blood was very fishy and difficult to swallow. However, at the moment, none of the soldiers of the Tang army disliked it. They took the steaming horse blood and drank it in one gulp, even some more.


    In the desert, anything that can replenish water is the most precious. Even the army commander Ma, who was devastated before killing the horse, drank two bowls impolitely.


    The next day.


    It was just dawn, and the army started immediately. While the temperature had not risen, they immediately rode their horses and marched in a hurry. Otherwise, once it was noon, the sun was scorching, even if they moved, they would be sweating, let alone marching in a hurry. Even walking was a difficult thing.


    For three days in a row, the army marched alone in the vast desert. There were no plants, no vitality, and no goals. Only the yellow sand, the hot sun and even birds disappeared.


    The expected Tulun river had no shadow. If the compass in Merton''s hand had not always guided the right direction, and sufficient water and dry food on horseback had given the army enough confidence, I''m afraid the army would have been terrified and shaken.


    Cheng Yaojin looked at Merton with a happy face. He was still too optimistic about the situation. If he followed his previous arrangement, I''m afraid the army has been in trouble now. Where will he have the confidence to fight steadily now.


    However, Rao is so. There is still an atmosphere of anxiety spreading in the army, but everyone is gritting their teeth and insisting, because this is a pursuit without retreat. If they do not defeat Fuyun''s last strength, their hard work and price will be in vain.


    "Keep moving!" Cheng Yaojin shouted, cheering the army.


    Merton rubbed his painful eyes stimulated by sweat, and drank two mouthfuls of water to supplement water. Only then did he slightly alleviate his hunger and thirst. He looked at the eyes of jueying shadow under his crotch, and reluctantly poured the little water in the water bag to it.


    Watching Jue Ying lick the water impatiently, Merton exhaled a mouthful of hot air, but he couldn''t spit out the irritability in his heart.


    Suddenly, there was an uproar among the soldiers in front, and there were bursts of pleasantly surprised voices.


    "What happened?" Merton hurried up to Cheng Yaojin and asked.


    "Great joy! There is an oasis not far from the north." the army commander Ma came to report with a surprised look on his face.


    "Is it Tu lunchuan!" Cheng Yaojin said with joy.


    "This oasis is a little small. It''s impossible!" the army commander Ma shook his head and said.


    The army commander''s horse has not lost anything. Even if it is not Tulun River, it can replenish water and survive a large number of war horses.


    Cheng Yaojin and Merton were shocked and couldn''t help breathing. They quickly looked north.


    In the northwest of the army, an oasis is clearly visible, and the distance is very close. I feel that I can reach it after turning over a few sand dunes.


    Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed: "God helps me. With this oasis, our army has no hidden dangers."


    "Send orders and go immediately..."


    Just as Cheng Yaojin was about to order the army to march towards the oasis, Merton stopped Cheng Yaojin.


    "Uncle Cheng, wait a minute!"


    "Why?" Cheng Yaojin asked in surprise.


    The water source is right ahead. With sufficient water supply, Tang Jun will no longer have to kill horses. Although Cheng Yaojin is so determined to kill horses, he will never give up if it is possible not to kill horses.


    Commander Ma also looked at Merton angrily and wanted Merton to give an explanation.


    Merton looked at the oasis clearly visible in front of him and said solemnly, "boy once said that there was another dragon named mirage on the sea, which can spit clouds and fog and turn into a tower to confuse the world."


    The commander of the army Ma chuckled, "you say it''s a mirage. It mostly happens on the sea of Penglai Fairy Island, and we are in the boundless desert. We don''t think the dragon can spit clouds and fog in the desert!"


    Merton did not care about the sarcasm of the army commander Ma, but solemnly nodded: "This kind of illusory scene is not only on the sea, but also on the snow fields, deserts and lakes. It is not uncommon for mirages to appear in the desert. Hu merchants traveling to and from the western regions have seen it everywhere. In the eyes of Hu merchants in the western regions, this is not a good thing. The oasis seems to be near, but it is far away. Many Hu merchants are desperate In order to gamble, he moved towards the oasis, but he was unconsciously lost in the desert. "


    "It seems that the hope of survival is the trap of death." Cheng Yaojin said coldly.


    Merton nodded and said, "now our army is not short of water, which is enough to support several days. Why should we deviate from the direction and do meaningless work."


    Cheng Yaojin was silent immediately. If the left leader guard really came to a desperate situation, he didn''t mind gambling. However, as Merton said, the left leader guard didn''t come to the end of the mountain and water, but he was able to do it easily. If the oasis is fake, it''s too much to lose. "


    "Are you sure that this is a mirage?" asked the army commander Ma reluctantly.


    Merton said proudly, "there is light and there is shadow. The way of light and shadow is unique to Mohism. In the eyes of Mohism, mirage is just the way of light and shadow. According to Mohist records, mirage can only be present for a quarter of an hour at most. If Lord Sima doesn''t believe it, we can wait another quarter of an hour to argue whether it is true or not."


    "Well, it''s true. It''s true. It''s true. The whole army has a rest."


    Cheng Yaojin nodded and immediately ordered to repair on the spot. At the moment, the sun is hot. The army has been marching for a long time and is already exhausted. It''s just time to have a rest.


    Soon there was a cheer from the Tang army. The stopped army immediately fed the war horses with water. Hiding in the shadow behind the war horses, he took out compressed dry food and directly drank clean water to eat. There was no dead grass on the grassland, so naturally he couldn''t eat hot food.


    Cheng Yaojin didn''t even have the mind to drink water. Instead, he watched the oasis in the distance and walked up and down anxiously. The time passed minute by minute.


    Soon, a quarter of an hour passed, but the oasis in the distance was still in sight.


    Just as Cheng Yaojin and the army commander Ma''s eyes became brighter and brighter, suddenly the oasis shook. It gradually faded in full view of the public, and soon disappeared into the public''s sight.


    "The oasis is gone?"


    "It''s a mirage!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The whole army was in an uproar. When the people were resting, Merton''s statement that the oasis in front of them was a mirage had long been spread all over the army. They couldn''t help admiring Merton more.


    Cheng Yaojin regretted, but at the same time, he was very happy. If there was no Merton''s dissuasion this time, they would certainly not be able to withstand the temptation and plunge into the vast sea, which would surely plunge the whole army into an irreparable place.


    The army commander Ma was also disappointed, but his eyes looked at Merton and there was no previous contempt. Along the way, Merton''s magic completely conquered him.

 Chapter 566

    When the sun set again, the Scouts of the Tang army who explored in the distance returned one after another. Unfortunately, this time, the Tang army still returned empty handed and didn''t find any news of the oasis at all.


    "General Cheng! Another 600 war horses will run out of material today!" after the army set up camp, the commander of the army came in with a sore face and reported it.


    As the army went deeper and deeper into the desert, the consumption of materials carried by the Tang army increased sharply. The number of horses to be slaughtered by the Tang army increased day by day. According to the previous practice, once the materials on the horse''s back were exhausted, it would be slaughtered. However, 600 horses would be killed this time.


    Six hundred!


    Rao is Cheng Yaojin. He has been prepared for it. He can''t help jumping his eyelids. This is not a small number!


    "Kill!" Cheng Yaojin said. It''s not difficult for him to choose between the safety of horses and soldiers.


    With a helpless sigh, the army commander Ma turned his head and was ready to leave. Merton''s voice suddenly stopped him.


    "Lord Sima, wait a minute. These 600 war horses may not have to be slaughtered first!" Merton said.


    "Seriously?"


    With a surprised look on his face, the army commander Ma turned and asked. Even Cheng Yaojin couldn''t believe it and looked at Merton. You know, Merton was the most determined person to kill the horse.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "yes, according to our army''s itinerary, Tulun river is not far away, and our army still has a surplus of drinking water. The consumption of these 600 war horses will be halved. After finding Tulun River, the supply will not be a problem."


    What the army lacks is drinking water. As long as we find Tulun River, there are plenty of water sources. In this way, these 600 war horses can also become the help of returning to the army.


    The army commander Ma couldn''t help looking forward to Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Yaojin nodded without hesitation and said, "do as Merton said."


    The army has been in the desert for five days. There is a compass to guide the direction along the way. There is no deviation at all. Tu lunchuan must be not far away. Cheng Yaojin naturally pushes the boat to save these war horses.


    "If the order goes on, the food will be doubled today. Keep your spirit and prepare for the war. After the war, we can go home." Cheng Yaojin shouted.


    Soon there was a burst of cheers from the army, and the victory was in front of us. Naturally, all the officers and men of the Tang army were excited.


    The excited atmosphere of the army continued until the next morning. Just before dawn, the army was ready to go.


    "Mo boy!" Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath and looked at Merton with consulting eyes.


    Merton looked down at the almost adjacent points on the map and waved his arm in the direction of West by south. Without any doubt, Cheng Yaojin directly ordered: "the whole army advances and the scouts expand to 50 miles."


    The army started again. This time, all the soldiers were dignified, the whole desert was silent, and only the war horses rustled on the yellow sand.


    Dead silence, dead silence! Even the hot air seemed to stagnate.


    Suddenly, a scout came from juechen in the northwest. The scout on the horse looked frightened and kept waving to the army.


    But without waiting for him to get close, the people had seen the terrible scene behind him. They saw a row of neat sand waves rushing straight towards the army.


    "Sandstorm!"


    Everyone took a breath. No one thought that they had encountered the severe test in the desert.


    "Mo boy, what should I do?" Cheng Yaojin roared.


    Merton said without hesitation: "cover your mouth and nose, tie the war horse, get down immediately, and start after the dust storm passes."


    At that moment, Cheng Yaojin took the lead and lay on the sand dune without hesitation. The soldiers of the whole army immediately followed suit and lay there one after another.


    "Woo!"


    The wind roared, and the sand grains with large grains of rice were brought up by the wind. They hit Merton''s back crazily, which was painful. What''s more unbearable is that those sand grains were like all pervasive, only attacking people''s ears and nose.


    In front of Tianwei, everyone should feel awe. The visibility in the dust storm can be said to be out of reach. The war horses on one side are restless. The soldiers of the Tang army have to comfort the war horses while enduring the invasion of wind and sand, but it is very difficult.


    The sandstorm blew all day and night. The next day, the whole sky was blue and new. Only those sand dunes that had moved several feet in front could prove the existence of yesterday''s sandstorm.


    Merton raised his head from the sand dune, shook the sand on his body, looked at the gray face of the soldiers around him, and couldn''t help laughing. Soon, the laughter spread all over the army, because almost everyone was like this. However, even so, no one was willing to wash his face with precious water.


    "How about the loss of the army?" Cheng Yaojin didn''t have the leisure, but immediately investigated the situation of Tang Jun.


    "Tell the general, except that dozens of war horses were frightened and fled, the army was not injured, but another team of scouts did not return in time." the commander of the army said with a heavy face. Once he lost his way in the vast desert, the consequences would be very serious.


    Merton comforted: "don''t worry too much. All scouts carry enough food and water for five days. There is no danger in a short time."


    Cheng Yaojin nodded heavily. A sandstorm delayed Tang Jun for another day, and the whole situation became grim.


    Merton was trying to comfort. Suddenly, he swept away and saw a familiar figure on the sand dunes in the southwest. A team of scouts appeared in the sight of everyone.


    "General! Fifty miles southwest, I found the trail of Tuyuhun cavalry!" the scouts went straight to Cheng Yaojin and cried with joy. The sand mixed with tears flowed a gully on his face, which was very funny.


    However, no one laughed at the moment. Instead, they couldn''t help crying and crying with joy. Soon, the same two gullies hung on the faces of many soldiers.


    "Well, don''t piss, that''s water." Cheng Yaojin shouted, but a smile appeared on his face.


    "Here comes Tulun Chuan!"


    All the officers and soldiers were suddenly enlightened. At this moment, all their hard work was gone, only full of pride and pride.


    Merton also breathed a sigh of relief. Along the way, they experienced extreme heat, quicksand traps, mirages and dust storms. It can be said that I suffered all the way, and all my efforts were finally rewarded.


    When Tu lunchuan arrived, he found the Tuyuhun cavalry, and voyun must be there.


    The Tang army immediately felt the wind under his feet. After looking through several hills, the terrain gradually became low-lying and some sparse vegetation gradually appeared,


    Further away, the vegetation gradually thickens. In the distance, a small river winds and circles, and thousands of tents are scattered on both sides.


    This is Tu lunchuan!


    Fuyun''s last hiding place.

 Chapter 567

    Wolves are the overlords of the grassland. They have sharp claws and teeth, organized and disciplined. Once they encounter wolves, even tigers should retreat.


    Fu Yun thought he was the wolf king of the grassland. He once ordered 300000 iron cavalry to shake the western regions. After the decline of Turks, he was complacent. He thought that the opportunity to Tuyuhun came and consciously carried the banner of resistance to the Tang Dynasty.


    However, he misjudged the form. At the moment, the Central Plains was no longer an era when there was no time to look East during the chaos in the late Sui Dynasty. When the sharp Tang army appeared on the grassland, his heart began to regret.


    The army was like an iron jungle, and his fear of Tengu eating the sun made him the most regretful decision in his life.


    Retreat!


    Who knows that this retreat is three thousand miles. As tribes lose contact, the clouds in Fu Yun''s heart become stronger and stronger. He knows that these tribes must have fallen into the hands of the Tang Dynasty.


    This is also the reason why he was desperate to cross the Qaidam Basin. He was also uneasy when he arrived at Qiemo City, because the king of Tianzhu, whom he trusted most, never heard from him. He still felt uneasy. Fuyun finally abandoned the city, gave up his luggage, abandoned his wife and children and fled directly to Tulun River in the desert, which was a little more reassuring.


    However, when the unstoppable Tang cavalry suddenly appeared after the yellow sand and raided Tulun River, Fu Yun found that he took it for granted. The Tang army overcame many difficulties and obstacles, crossed the vast desert and came directly.


    "Tang Jun!"


    Fu Yun''s eyes were about to crack and he couldn''t believe it. He looked at the scene in front of him. It was the vast desert. The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty chased here. Even the powerful Sui soldiers didn''t dare to step into the desert.


    Unfortunately, Fu Yun was unlucky. He met Cheng Yaojin and the black sheep of the Mo family, who came after him with the loss of 6000 war horses.


    "Khan! What should I do?"


    Fu Yun''s Guard commander Aguda rushed to Fu Yun. Aguda was Fu Yun''s close guard and commanded the most elite King''s tent iron cavalry.


    With the escort of nearly a thousand King''s tent and iron cavalry, Fu Yun''s panicked face calmed down a little.


    "Go, retreat to the desert!"


    Looking at the wolf like Tang Jun, Fu Yun turned around and left without thinking.


    According to the visual observation, the Tang army is no less than 3000. It is reasonable that the elite King''s tent iron cavalry is not necessarily weaker than the Tang army. Unfortunately, Fu Yun has been frightened at the moment. Coupled with the sudden attack of the Tang army, Fu Yun is already a frightened bird. He naturally runs away and can''t afford any resistance at all.


    "Kill!"


    More than 2000 King''s tent cavalry tragically welcomed the Tang army, hoping to win a chance to escape for Fu Yun.


    "Kill!"


    Cheng Yaojin roared. The Tang army marched in the desert for five days. After the disaster, the two cavalry quickly collided.


    Tu lunchuan, like a paradise in the world, was baptized by iron and blood for the first time. Soon, the sound of fighting gradually stopped.


    Cheng Yaojin shot back, killed the last majestic general Tuyuhun, wiped the blood on his body, and breathed a sigh of relief.


    "General, Fuyun has escaped again!" said the army commander Ma angrily. The Tang army caught up with Fuyun after all the disasters, but he didn''t expect that Fuyun escaped into the desert again.


    Cheng Yaojin scooped up a basin of water, suddenly fell down on his body and washed away the blood. He sneered: "Fu Yun thinks he has escaped into the desert. We don''t dare to pursue. That''s a big mistake."


    "The general wants to pursue?" the army commander Ma looked at Cheng Yaojin strangely.


    "That''s right! Commander Ma, how many extra horses do we have!" Cheng Yaojin shouted suddenly.


    The commander of the army trembled and said with a bitter smile, "general Hui, there are still two thousand war horses left."


    In just five days, the Tang army had lost 4000 war horses, and the remaining 2000 war horses also included 600 saved by the army.


    Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand and said, "pick out a thousand cavalry, three for one, bring enough food and water, and attack again with the general."


    Soon, a thousand cavalry troops gathered again, and behind them were 3000 war horses refilled with supplies. Each war horse could not wait to eat the rare delicious grass under his feet in a limited time.


    "Mo boy, do you have the courage to follow me again?" Cheng Yaojin turned his head and shouted.


    "Why don''t you dare?" Merton said brightly, taking the firearm to supervise the officers and men out of the crowd.


    "Let''s go!" Cheng Yaojin waved his long arm, and the army stepped into the vast desert again. At the moment, shortly after Fu Yungang left, the footprints on the ground are still clearly visible. Once delayed, after a sandstorm, I''m afraid there will be no trace of Fu Yungang.


    "Drive!"


    Fu Yun beat the horse under his crotch hard and kept moving towards the southwest. Even his body over 60 was difficult to support the heat of the desert, but Fu Yun didn''t stop at all.


    He was Murong Fuyun and the king of Tuyuhun. Facing such a strong Yang Guang, he fled to Khotan alone and made a comeback. This time, as long as he could reach Khotan and wait until the Tang army retreated, he could also make a comeback.


    "Khan, the Tang army is coming!" Aguda exclaimed. He didn''t expect Tang Jun to chase into the desert again.


    Fu Yun turned his head and saw the smoke and dust pursued by the Tang army behind him straight into the sky, with great momentum.


    Fu Yun clenched his teeth and ordered, "leave 500 cavalry behind!"


    For today''s plan, Fu Yun has to break his tail to survive.


    Agudaton was indifferent for a while. He had to bite his teeth and wave his hand. Suddenly, the five hundred King''s cavalry turned their horses and rushed towards the army tragically.


    The bright red blood seeped into the yellow sand and was evaporated dry at high temperature in the twinkling of an eye, leaving only reddish brown blood stains.


    The five hundred King''s tent cavalry gave Fuyun a chance to escape, but let Fuyun lose his heart. As the water source of the king''s tent cavalry gradually ran out, the Tuyuhun cavalry began to flee on a large scale. The next day, there were only 300 of the remaining 500 King''s tent cavalry, and a full 200 King''s tent cavalry fled while taking advantage of it.


    On the third day, only 30 people followed around Fuyun.


    "As long as I wait for Khotan, Ben Khan promises to compensate you ten times and a hundred times for what you lose." Fuyun opens his dry lips and tries to promise to the only thirty cavalry.


    However, no one cheered. Everyone looked at the yellow sand all over the sky and looked dejected.


    "Khan, the Han people have risen, and Khotan is just 30000 troops. How dare you offend the Han people, if we don''t surrender!" Aguda advised.


    Fu Yun suddenly gave a meal and looked at Aguda with sharp eyes: "Ben Khan may be able to live by surrendering, but it''s just a feat for the Han people to show off like Jieli, just like a grand monkey. Ben Khan won''t live even if he dies."


    Fu Yun thinks he is an eagle on the grassland. How can he be willing to live in a cage? Besides, he once had the glory of making a comeback. Naturally, if he didn''t do it, how can he be willing. However, Fu Yun didn''t see a fierce flash in Aguda''s low eyes.


    "Pooh!" Aguda''s arm moved, and the long knife immediately stabbed into Fu Yun''s chest.


    Fu Yun couldn''t believe looking at Aguda in front of him. He didn''t expect that the most loyal Aguda would betray him, while the other king''s tent cavalry did not move at all, but stood beside Aguda one by one.


    "Why?" Fuyun vomited blood and asked with difficulty.


    "Although Jieli Khan was humiliated in Chang''an City, the Turkic ministries have been completely preserved. Since the Turkic ministries can be preserved, our Tuyuhun ministries can also survive. Since you are not willing to enter Chang''an City for Tuyuhun''s life and death, you can only use your head to calm the anger of Tian Khan and exchange a glimmer of Tuyuhun''s vitality." Aguda said coldly.


    Voyun only wanted to go to Khotan for the great plan of restoring the country, but he couldn''t see that Tuyuhun had been defeated by the Han people one after another. It can be seen that Tuyuhun was not the opponent of the Han people at all. If he continued to fight, he could only fight the last details of Tuyuhun. At that time, Tuyuhun had to go on the way of destruction.


    "Only Ben Khan can lead Tuyuhun to be strong." Fuyun said weakly.


    Aguda shook his head and said, "no, you led Tuyuhun to destruction. Twice!"


    Fu Yun was unwilling to look at Tuyuhun''s direction, and his eyes gradually dimmed. Even the greatest revenge in his heart finally turned into a sigh.


    A generation of male grassland owners, Fu Yun, finally died in front of this nameless sand dune.

 Chapter 568

    When Cheng Yaojin and Merton came after him and saw the head on Aguda''s hand, they finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Although the scattered King''s tent cavalry weakened Fu Yun''s strength, it also caused great trouble to the pursuit of the Tang army. The Tang army chased him wrong several times before catching up.


    "Fu Yun disrespected the heavenly Khan, provoked the Heavenly Kingdom, did not repent, deserved his death, and hoped that the general of the kingdom would check it!" Aguda knelt on the sand and respectfully handed his head to the besieged Tang army.


    Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand, and the military commander Ma led special personnel to check it immediately.


    "Tell the general! It''s indeed Fu Yun''s head." the commander of the army Ma said positively. The pursuit army has seen Fu Yun''s appearance with the emissary of Tu yuhun. In addition, the armor and horses of Fu Yun on the ground have been the identity of the commander of King Aguda''s account cavalry. In addition, the confessions of other king''s account cavalry finally confirmed that Fu Yun died in the hands of Aguda.


    Cheng Yaojin waved his hand. Immediately someone came forward to save Fu Yun''s head and gathered Fu Yun''s gold armor and war horse. At this time, he turned his eyes to Aguda kneeling on the ground.


    "You killed Fu Yun!" Cheng Yaojin sighed for a while. He didn''t expect that Fu Yun, who had ups and downs all his life, would die on betrayal.


    Aguda immediately changed his face and flattered: "if you return to the great general of the Chinese dynasty, Fuyun Chui is old. It is already sunset, but you are trying to resist the Chinese dynasty. I admire the Chinese dynasty and present Fuyun''s head to show my loyalty."


    Cheng Yaojin looked at Aguda, who looked like a villain. He could not help frowning and said, "Datang has long offered a reward. If anyone can kill Fu Yun, Tian Khan will have a heavy reward. He would have reported your achievements truthfully."


    Agudaton said with great joy, "thank you, general."


    Cheng Yaojin impatiently urges his horse to leave. He doesn''t want to see Aguda''s flattering expression again.


    "Uncle Cheng can''t see this man''s purpose!" Merton urged his horse to follow behind Cheng Yaojin. He didn''t understand. Aguda is the most loyal person of Fuyun, and Cheng Yaojin has no doubt that Aguda betrayed Fuyun because of his interests.


    "What''s the important purpose?" Cheng Yaojin said indifferently. "What we want is Fu Yun''s head, and do you think this person can survive on the grassland by killing Fu Yun?"


    How can Cheng Yaojin not doubt it, but he doesn''t care at all. With such a big Tang army, everyone''s careful thinking is just an itch of scabies! In fact, there is more than one Aguda who has other thoughts, Murong Shun, and the various departments of Tuyuhun who surrendered. Which one does not think carefully? As long as the strength of the Tang army is, all careful thinking is futile.


    Merton nodded, looked at Aguda''s eyes, and suddenly thought a little more.


    Suddenly, a cloud of smoke and dust billowed in the south, and a large number of cavalry rushed directly towards the Tang army.


    "Enemy attack!" the Scouts of the Tang army shouted loudly!


    "Assemble the whole army!" Cheng Yaojin yelled.


    Immediately, the Tang army quickly gathered to form an attack array and was ready.


    "How can there be a third-party cavalry in this place!" the commander of the army said angrily. It''s a vast desert and few people come here. Since Fu Yun has been killed, Tuyuhun has no resistance anymore.


    "Khotan!"


    Cheng Yaojin and Merton looked at each other and agreed.


    They are an isolated army, and voyun is also an isolated army. The cavalry here can only be local forces. The Khotan country nearest here is also the last target of voyun''s defection.


    It seems that the escaped Tuyuhun cavalry was found by Khotan, which made Khotan send troops. Unexpectedly, they have unconsciously pursued the sphere of influence of Khotan. Cheng Yaojin was secretly lucky. If they were one step later, they might really be allowed to escape.


    "What about the general?" said the commander of the army with a frightened face. At the moment, they are only a thousand cavalry, isolated and helpless, and don''t have any advantage at all. There are at least thousands of Khotan cavalry. If they fight, Tang army will win less and lose more.


    "What should I do? If I fight with him, I won''t be afraid of this small bullet country even if I have a thousand cavalry!" Cheng Yaojin said proudly.


    Merton hurriedly came forward and said, "Uncle Cheng, wait a minute! Khotan is no more than a small country in the western regions, and its troops are only tens of thousands. Since Fu Yun has been killed, how can he be willing to turn over for a dead man and Datang."


    Cheng Yaojin''s eyes lit up and thought deeply. He shouted, "show our army''s flag!"


    "Hoo!"


    Suddenly, a huge flag opened in the wind, and the huge Tang characters in the middle of the flag stood out,


    "Send another scout back to report! Khotan dares to go to war. I promise your majesty will send an army to let Khotan go." Cheng Yaojin felt uneasy and issued another order.


    Suddenly, a group of scouts quickly returned to toulunchuan to report.


    "Whoa!"


    Thousands of cavalry of Khotan stopped 300 steps away from the Tang army and confronted the Tang army. The atmosphere suddenly stagnated in the desert.


    "I dare to ask, but the Chinese soldiers and horses. Yuchi of Khotan must be polite." surprisingly, a horse slowly stepped out of the line and shouted in Datang words.


    "Yuchi Ding!" information about the state of Khotan suddenly appeared in Merton''s heart. Yuchi is the state name of Khotan, and Yuchi Ding is the Lord of Khotan.


    Cheng Yaojin stared and whispered, "it''s time for Yuchi Gong to come and talk to his family."


    "The general Cheng Yaojin, the king of Wei Chi suddenly appears. Is it to avenge Fu Yun''s old son?" Cheng Yaojin whispers, but his face is extremely arrogant. With a little force on his hand, Fu Yun''s head rolls down in front of Wei Chi Ding.


    Wei Chi Ding was shocked when he looked at his head lying on the ground. The news of the battle between Datang and Tuyuhun had already spread all over the western regions. Almost all countries in the western regions were inquiring about the news, among which Khotan, who is closest to Tuyuhun and has the closest relationship, naturally paid more attention.


    "Tuyuhun was defeated!" Wei Chi Ding closed his eyes helplessly.


    He had already received the news of Tuyuhun''s defeat, but he didn''t expect that Tuyuhun''s defeat was so tragic that Tang Jun had chased him into the desert,


    Wei Chi Ding and Fu Yun have known each other for a long time. At the beginning, Khotan helped Fu Yun to restore the country. Fu Yun rewarded Khotan with a peach and a plum. They also rewarded Khotan with rich returns. The two countries have a good relationship.


    "It is said that the friendship between Khotan and Tuyuhun is invincible. Could it be that King Yuchi came to avenge Fuyun this time?" Cheng Yaojin said arrogantly, regardless of his weak military strength.


    As soon as Wei Chi Ding''s face changed, he quickly said with a smile: "where? This time, the king learned that Fuyun''s defeated soldiers fled to Khotan. For fear that Fuyun''s defeated soldiers would harm Khotan, he came to encircle it, but he didn''t expect that the heavenly general should take the lead to eliminate this harm for the people of Khotan."


    If Fu Yun was still there, Wei Chi would not mind helping, but now Fu Yun has been killed. As Merton said, how can Khotan offend Datang because of a dead man.


    Cheng Yaojin didn''t break Wei chiding''s lie. He laughed and said, "so, we helped Khotan once?"


    Wei chiding said with a smile, "the Chinese army came all the way to the land of NASH. In order to eliminate this harm in Khotan, the small country can''t repay it. Please also invite the Chinese army to take a nap in Khotan, replenish water and reward the three armies."


    "No, I can''t wait to hear the good news. I won''t disturb you." Cheng Yaojin refused rudely.


    However, the more arrogant Cheng Yaojin was, the more respectful Wei chiding said, "in that case, it would be impolite for a small country. I''ll give it away soon."


    Each of them returned to the army, but the Tang army did not move at all. It kept an attack formation and aimed at the Khotan cavalry.


    Wei Chi Ding looked at the heavily guarded Tang army. His face was angry, but he had no choice but to swallow it, turned his horse''s head and led the cavalry to leave first.


    "King, the Tang army is no more than a thousand cavalry. The Tang general is so arrogant and insolent. Why are we so patient!" said a Khotan general angrily.


    Wei Chi Ding was depressed and said, "Tang will be arrogant because he relies on Tang behind his back. You don''t see that there are already several scouts who have returned to report. Of course, we can defeat zeqianqi Tang army, and then we can defeat hundreds of thousands of Tang army?"


    The general of Khotan immediately trembled in his heart. Tuyuhun, who claimed that 300000 iron cavalry, was defeated by the Tang army. What capital does Khotan have to fight against the Tang Dynasty with his 30000 cavalry?


    Wei Chi Ding looked helplessly at the Tang army still guarding against them and said faintly, "the sky in the western regions has changed."


    As Wei chiding returned to Khotan, the news of Tuyuhun''s defeat and Fuyun''s killing spread all over the western regions. Everyone understood that the sky in the western regions had changed.


    The western regions ushered in a new overlord, the Tang Dynasty. After the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Western Han Dynasty and the violent Sui Dynasty, the Han people will dominate the western regions again.

 Chapter 569

    Until the Khotan cavalry disappeared, the Tang army was relieved.


    Although Cheng Yaojin is tough, he''s really not sure if he wants to fight. Fortunately, Wei chiding is not a lengtouqing and doesn''t rush.


    Aguda, who watched the confrontation between Khotan and the Tang army all the way, smiled bitterly. Khotan did not dare to offend the tiger power of the Tang Dynasty. Voyun wanted to rely on Khotan to restore the country is just a fantasy.


    Cheng Yaojin looked at the head of Fu Yun on the yellow sand. He couldn''t help but show a satisfied smile and stretch out his hand. The military commander immediately came forward and placed him properly as if he had been a treasure. This is the best proof of their military skill!


    "Withdraw!" Cheng Yaojin shouted loudly. He gave the order to withdraw for the first time. The army chased into the desert for many days. Finally, the first war ended successfully. Naturally, they will return to the army.


    "Ow!"


    The soldiers of the left leader Wei Qianqi immediately cheered in unison.


    The withdrawal naturally represents the end of the battle of Tuyuhun, and his left leading guard has not only made great achievements in the war, but also won the head of Fu Yun, which can be said to be the biggest winner.


    Moreover, as long as they return to Chang''an City, they will be greatly rewarded. Many soldiers who have won a lot immediately began to calculate their military achievements in this war.


    "Da Da!"


    The thousand cavalry returned to Tulun River as quickly as possible, just in time to meet with the two thousand cavalry reported by the scouts for support. Then the three thousand cavalry didn''t stop at all, returned to Tulun River, brought enough water and food, and stepped into the desert again.


    With the time to explore the way, when returning from Tulun River, the left leader guard stepped out of the desert in only three days.


    The moment Cheng Yaojin led 3000 cavalry out of the desert, he was immediately discovered by Li Jing''s scouts.


    "General Cheng! The army has been waiting in Qiemo city for a long time." the scouts immediately came forward and said that the Tang army captured many cattle and sheep. Only Qiemo city and other places with abundant water and grass can feed them. Li Jing directly ordered the army to return to Qiemo City, leaving the scouts to inquire about Merton and Cheng Yaojin again.


    "Move on and retreat to Qiemo city." Cheng Yaojin ordered without hesitation, and the left leader guard set out again.


    When the left leader guard arrived at Qiemo City, Li Jing, who had already heard the news, led the generals out to meet him.


    "The last general is lucky to live up to his orders!" Cheng Yaojin made a military salute and solemnly presented Fuyun''s head armor.


    "Good! General Cheng has worked hard!"


    Li Jing was overjoyed. As long as Fu Yun gave the head, the war was successfully completed.


    Other generals couldn''t help looking at Cheng Yaojin and Merton with envious eyes. It was a great credit for them to return with their heads. What''s more, they led 3000 cavalry into the desert. Except for a few deaths, they all returned.


    However, when they saw that Cheng Yaojin and Merton were like peeling faces, they couldn''t help taking a breath. The difficulty of this trip can be imagined. If the opportunity was placed in front of them, one side was the vast desert and the other side was the pursuit of little hope. If they had to choose, I''m afraid they might not dare to step into the desert.


    After checking the head of Fu Yun, Li Jing showed a satisfied smile and said, "general Cheng has worked hard. The left leader guard stepped into the vast desert in this war. It can be said to be great courage. The general must remember the first merit for you."


    Cheng Yaojin said with a faint heart: "the general is flattered. He has made a lot of efforts to pursue the ink sacrifice this time. At the end, he will not dare to covet the whole skill."


    Merton couldn''t help scolding Cheng Yaojin for being slippery. This time, he lost 5000 horses in the vast desert. Even if he captured many horses of the king''s account cavalry, there was still a gap of 3000 horses. This is not a small number.


    Moreover, the main force of this battle is the left leader guard. The credit is indispensable. Cheng Yaojin takes the initiative to ask for credit for Merton. On the one hand, it is the friendship between the two families. It is impossible to covet Merton''s credit. On the other hand, it is also to share the pressure. Merton''s black sheep have a good reputation and can perfectly carry the black pot of 5000 war horses.


    Hearing the speech, Li Jing immediately looked at Merton''s tanned face with a smile.


    "The way of Mo sacrificing wine to fight is very special! This general is an eye opener." Li Jing smiled.


    Other generals also burst into laughter. How can Cheng Yaojin and Merton''s direct plan to lose 6000 war horses hide the news from the generals? When they meet with the Deputy General of the left leader''s guard, the number of war horses of the whole left leader''s guard can''t be accounted for. However, they have won and returned, and their efforts have paid a rich return. Naturally, no one will break through all this.


    "General Li laughed."


    Merton''s face was already tanned, but now it became black and red.


    The other generals could not help sighing. There are indeed a lot of ghost ideas of Mohist school. The only biggest disadvantage is that they lose their family. They are not ordinary family background, and they can''t stand the toss of Merton.


    Li Jing waved his big hand and said, "since the left leader guard and the firearm supervisor have returned one after another, we can also return to the dynasty."


    The mission of Li Jing and others to stay here is to meet Cheng Yaojin and Merton. Now that the three are back, they naturally have no reason to stay here. Otherwise, the army will stay outside for a long time, which is a big taboo in the army.


    After sending orders to the three armed forces, the Tang army, who could not wait for it, immediately got ready to go as quickly as possible.


    The return trip is much easier. There is no pursuit task. The army specially selects places with abundant water and grass to March. When crossing the Qaidam Basin again, the army is extremely relaxed although it has traveled a long way.


    Until now, Merton had no leisure to appreciate the grandeur of the Qaidam Basin,


    Small salt lakes, deserted Gobi desert and magical shell beams can be seen everywhere.


    "Come on, dig for me here!" Merton commanded the firearm supervisor. He had heard the name of shell beam for a long time, but he didn''t see it. Now he finally got this opportunity, how could he miss it.


    After the thin saline alkali soil is lifted, a thick rock layer is exposed, and a large number of shell shaped stones are exposed in the rock lines.


    "What is this?" Cheng Yaojin asked curiously.


    Merton''s strange move has long attracted many people, and many curious generals follow behind him.


    "These are shell fossils. It must have been a sea countless years ago." Merton said with emotion on his face.


    "The vicissitudes of life!" under Merton''s explanation, the generals sighed.


    Merton easily found a broken shell beam rock and put it into the carriage of the firearm supervisor.


    Then the army stepped into the Yadan landform of Mahai. With the support of Merton, the army bypassed for 30 miles, which did not destroy this magical landform.


    At the moment, Tang Jun wins greatly. Even if Merton''s request is very strange, Li Jing still generously agrees.


    Just as we were about to step out of the Qaidam Basin, an incredible news broke the joy of the victorious return of the army.


    The Tuoba tribe is reversed! Tens of thousands of cavalry from all departments of the United Party blocked Li daoyan''s troops in YeHu gorge, and the situation was in jeopardy.

 Chapter 570

    "Li daoyan is so bold! He even openly disobeyed the military order." Li Jing was shocked and angry when he heard the messenger''s report. Before the war, Tang Jun had reached a strategy to rebel against Dangxiang and Qiang people and specialize in Tuyuhun.


    But who would have thought that Li daoyan would be so domineering and destroy Tang Jun''s previous efforts.


    The generals also looked angry. In order to find the main force of Tuyuhun, Tang Jun agreed with Tuoba chici that as long as he could betray Fuyun, Tang would let bygones be bygones.


    But who could have thought that Li daoyan had not made any achievements in this war. In order to falsely report his achievements, he directly attacked the Tuoba tribe and robbed thousands of cattle and sheep. In the name of the treachery of the Tang army, the Tuoba tribe combined with many tribes to block Li daoyan in YeHu Gorge, which was initially difficult to do.


    "Treachery!"


    The generals were embarrassed. Their army was fighting hard in the front, and Li daoyan was even holding back in the rear, which put them to shame.


    "If the order goes down, the army will speed up immediately!" Li Jing said angrily.


    Li daoyan is hateful, but tens of thousands of troops and horses in Chishui road following Li daoyan are innocent. They are all veterans in the army. Naturally, they know that if an army is trapped for a long time, it is not far from defeat.


    "I hope it will be too late!" Li Jing said with an embarrassed face.


    Merton also sighed. In his memory, Li daoyan was defeated miserably, and tens of thousands of soldiers were buried with him. However, at the moment, he was pursued by the army, thousands of miles away, even if he wanted to.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Outside YeHu gorge.


    If there is regret medicine in the world, Li daoyan must have bought it at the expense of his family. In a world war, other armies reported good news frequently, and he did not make any achievements. Even the firearms supervisor of dozens of people led by Mo Jiazi also made great achievements. How can he be balanced in his heart.


    Eager for merit, he was obsessed for a moment, so he attacked Tuoba tribe and captured some cattle and sheep as military capital.


    In his opinion, Tuoba Chizhi''s resignation is just a body of guilt. He betrayed Tuyuhun and took refuge in Datang. Even if he killed hundreds of people and robbed their cattle and sheep, Tuoba tribe can only knock off their teeth and swallow them with blood.


    However, he still underestimated the unity of all departments of the party and the means of Tuoba chici. Tuoba chici even caught Li daoyan''s treachery and surrounded Li daoyan and Chishui road Corps directly.


    If other Tang troops were here, I''m afraid they would have broken through the encirclement long ago, but Li daoyan was just a straw bag relying on Yu en''s father Li Shentong. He was forced to move forward by Tuoba chici and was trapped here all the time.


    "Tuoba tribe is not afraid of the Tang Dynasty''s revenge?" Li daoyan roared. His envoys were chased back by the party departments again and again. Unfortunately, Tuoba''s red resignation was so iron that he wanted to force Li daoyan to die.


    However, the response he received was the party cavalry pressing step by step.


    "Has the reinforcements come yet?" Li daoyan roared.


    He had already sent several waves of messengers to ask for help. Unfortunately, they all sank into the sea, and there was no response at all.


    "Tell the manager! Now the army is on the western expedition, and there is no reinforcements near our department." the deputy general looked at Li daoyan like a straw bag with a helpless face.


    "Which one is the nearest to our army?" Li daoyan said anxiously. Now the encirclement of Tuoba chici is getting closer and closer. I''m afraid his troops will not be able to support it in a short time.


    The deputy general said bitterly, "I''m afraid the wounded camp and baggage camp of Su dingfang near Qinghai Lake are the closest to us. Other reinforcements are too far away. I''m afraid it''s too late to get the news!"


    Li daoyan suddenly felt a burst of despair. He fell into such a desperate situation just because of a thought. He had no hope for the wounded camp and the baggage camp.


    "I hope Tuoba''s red speech is just a bluff." Li daoyan said with a fierce face and a weak heart.


    "Tell the manager that the Dangxiang soldiers are coming!" said a scout with a frightened face.


    "The whole army is ready for war!" Li daoyan roared. Now no one can save him, so he has to save himself. He knows that even if he is defeated, he may be able to save his life, but if he wants to abandon the army and flee, even if he is a descendant of the clan, he will die.


    As soon as the two armies came into contact, Tang Jun immediately fell into the disadvantage. Tuoba chici is worthy of being the leader of the party. Although he was defeated by Tang Jun, it is more than enough to deal with Li daoyan.


    It can be said that there are a nest of bears and soldiers. With Li daoyan, even if the Tang army has an advantage in equipment, it is still losing.


    "Tuoba clan leader, now the Tang army is powerful and even Tuyuhun is defeated in his hands. We can win when we attack the Tang army. What should we do if Li Jing''s army didn''t return?" old clan leader hule looked at the war in front of us with worry. According to his meaning, it is OK to directly block the Tang army for a few days and ask Li Jing to come back and explain to them, but who would have thought that Tuoba chici suddenly ordered a direct attack on the Tang army.


    "Although our party is weak and small, it is not to be slaughtered. We have signed an alliance with the Tang army, but the Tang army is treacherous and attacks all departments of our party. If we don''t fight back, we won''t be bullied by the Han people." Tuoba said angrily.


    Because he took the wrong position and took refuge in Tuyuhun, he finally betrayed voyun and escaped. The position of the leader of Dangxiang was already in jeopardy. However, at this time, the Tang army''s attack on Tuoba tribe gave him an opportunity to command all departments of Dangxiang again.


    Naturally, he would not care about the lives of hundreds of people. What he really cares about is the opportunity to regain his power. The Tuoba tribe will certainly be surpassed by the hule tribe who took refuge in the Tang Dynasty in advance.


    At the beginning, Tuoba Chi was photographed in Li Jing''s prestige of victory. He didn''t want to fight with the Tang army. However, after several attempts, he found that the Tang army was afraid of the head and tail, and there were many loopholes.


    Then he suddenly decided to take the initiative. First, he tied the whole Dangxiang tribe to the Tuoba tribe. Second, peace was fought. Tuoba chici was not a straw bag, but the shrewd leader of the Dangxiang tribe. He naturally knew this truth.


    "Yes, the Han people are treacherous. How can all departments of our party allow them to be insulted!"


    "Revenge!"


    Most of the departments of the party are vulgar people. Encouraged by Tuoba chici, they immediately beat chicken blood. Moreover, the Tang army in front of them does not seem as powerful as the rumor on the grassland, which makes them eager to try.


    "Yes, our Ulan tribe was also robbed by the Tang army. If we don''t resist, today is your tribe''s tomorrow!" the leader of Ulan Tribe said sadly and angrily.


    This time, the Tang army plundered Dangxiang tribe, not only Tuoba tribe, but also Ulan tribe. This is also the reason why Tuoba chici responded. Cattle and sheep are the most precious wealth on the grassland. If anyone moves the cattle and sheep of the tribe, he will be the enemy of life and death.


    With the complaints of Ulan tribe, the leaders of various tribes responded one after another. Even the reputation of Datang can no longer deter these party leaders.


    Old clan leader hule reluctantly looked at the excited departments of the party, and looked at Tuoba chici with profound meaning. He knew that Tuoba chici was playing with fire this time and regained control of the departments of the party with a dead and epigenetic method.


    "If you can succeed this time, hule tribe will obey the orders of yituoba tribe. However, hule tribe will not participate in this war!" old clan leader hule sighed and turned to leave.


    Some party leaders wanted to stop the Hule department, but Tuoba chici waved to let them go. The Tang army was about to return, and the party departments could not hang from a tree.


    "Give orders, the army will attack and defeat the Tang army before noon." Tuoba chici suddenly shouted.


    Immediately, the cavalry of all departments of the Dangxiang party joined the battle one after another, and the pressure of the Chishui road army immediately doubled. Many defense lines even faintly showed signs of collapse. Li daoyan, who had little experience in unifying the army, had to be beaten passively in the face of repeated attacks by Tuoba chici. At one time, the Tang army suffered heavy casualties.


    "No!"


    Li daoyan watched a large number of Dangxiang cavalry break into the position of the Tang army, and the defense line of the Tang army immediately began to collapse,


    Seeing that the Chishui road army was about to be defeated, Li daoyan closed his eyes in despair.


    Suddenly a cry of killing came from the north, and a high Tang army flag was erected.


    "Reinforcements are coming!"


    The soldiers of Chishui road army were shocked and quickly stabilized the front, which could block the attack of Dangxiang soldiers.


    "Reinforcements? Which general will come to help!" Li daoyan was overjoyed and quickly looked to the north.


    The deputy general looked up, shook his head and said, "there is no serial number, only a Soviet war flag."


    Li daoyan couldn''t help wondering that there was no general named Su among the generals who attacked Tuyuhun!


    "Is it the baggage camp?" the deputy general reminded.


    "How many people are there in the baggage camp?" Li daoyan said in a surprised voice.


    Deputy general Lingguang said, "although there are not many people in the baggage camp, Su dingfang is now in charge of the wounded camp. Now I''m afraid those wounded soldiers have recovered from their injuries!"


    There are nearly 10000 wounded soldiers in the wounded camp. According to the doctor''s promise, the cure rate can be at least 90%. Even if you put aside the disability of the first floor, you can gather up 8000 soldiers.


    The deputy general guessed right. It was really the soldiers of the wounded battalion led by Su dingfang who came to support.


    "Kill!"


    Su dingfang took the lead in attacking the Dangxiang cavalry of the besieged Tang army. Thanks to the repeated victories on the front line, the wounded camp and the baggage camp had enough horses, so he came to help in time.


    Tuoba chici saw this and immediately a group of cavalry dispersed to block the Tang army.


    The Tang army in front of him was less than 10000 people. He didn''t pay attention to it at all. Even if these reinforcements joined, he was not afraid. He believed that it would be sooner or later for Dangxiang to win.


    However, Tuoba chici was surprised that the Dangxiang cavalry who went to stop was like paper paste. In particular, the chief General took the lead and was unstoppable. Other Tang armies followed suit one after another. He thought that the elite Dangxiang cavalry would collapse at one touch and was not the enemy of a round at all.


    Tuoba chici couldn''t believe looking at the scene in front of him. There was a world difference between the Chishui road army and the Tang army. If one is afraid of hands and feet like a lamb, the other is as ferocious as a wolf.


    "I''ve met a fake Tang army!" Tuoba chici said blankly. The contrast between the two Tang armies is too big. It''s a world apart. If the Chishui Dao army had such a force, he wouldn''t dare to come to trouble the Tang army even if he robbed another batch of cattle and sheep!


    Tuoba chici didn''t know that although these wounded soldiers came from various armies and didn''t belong to each other, they survived after fighting on the battlefield. Each one can be said to be a elite soldier in a hundred battles. More importantly, he also had a brave leader Su dingfang.


    "Kill me!" Su dingfang took the lead.


    "Promise!"


    Behind him, eight thousand soldiers and men agreed., One by one, the cavalry with ferocious faces killed Dangxiang, invincible.


    Su dingfang rushed out of the encirclement of the Dangxiang cavalry. Many Chishui soldiers were greatly encouraged and even followed Su dingfang to fight back. The whole situation was reversed in an instant, and the Tang army turned back to victory.


    "Good!" the Deputy General of Chishui road was excited and overjoyed.


    However, Li daoyan was not at all happy, but his heart was cold. Although this situation was beneficial to Tang Jun, it was a devastating blow to him.


    In terms of military strength, he has more generals than Su dingfang. In terms of strength, he is a well-trained and formed unit. However, in the face of Dangxiang cavalry, he is losing ground and has no ability to fight back,


    However, Su dingfang led a mob of wounded soldiers in the camp and even fought under the party cavalry. Although he was saved this time, he became the laughing stock of the whole Tang army and a stain of his life.


    "Toot!"


    Seeing the sharp decline of the battlefield form, Tuoba Chizhi made a quick decision and immediately ordered the withdrawal. At present, Li Jing''s army has not returned. He still needs to preserve his strength to have the capital to bargain with Datang.


    Seeing that the Dangxiang cavalry withdrew one after another, Su dingfang stopped pursuing and returned to join the Chishui road army.


    "Thanks for general Su''s help!" Li daoyan looked at Su dingfang in front of him. After this war, Su dingfang must be a blockbuster. Before that, Su dingfang''s greatest achievement was just the vanguard who led Qianqi. After this war, Su dingfang must be able to command the army alone, but the rise of Su dingfang stepped on his head.


    "Manager Li, you''re welcome! We''re the same robes. Naturally, we''ll help each other. Now general Li returns with a great victory and will arrive at YeHu gorge in a few days. If we don''t retreat first and meet general Li, we''ll make plans!" Su dingfang said faintly.


    Li daoyan was overjoyed at the speech and said, "OK! This time I have won a great victory in the Tang Dynasty. At present, the Dangxiang cavalry dare to attack me without authorization. This general will certainly let the Dangxiang departments pay the price!"


    Su dingfang turned his head and couldn''t bear to look at Li daoyan''s shameless face. The reason for the battle between Chishui Daojun and Dangxiang has long been no secret. What''s more shameful is that Li daoyan''s stealing chicken can''t erode rice, and he was defeated.


    Of course, Su dingfang didn''t say anything about all this. The two armies converged and slowly withdrew from YeHu gorge. This time, the Dangxiang cavalry never stopped.


    The wounded camp and Chishui road. After the Chishui road army broke away from the wounded camp, they quickly left the battlefield and joined Li Jing''s army towards the West.


    Three days later,


    Li Jing''s army finally joined the Chishui road army.

 Chapter 571

    Li Jing, the Chinese Army''s big account, the generals are gathered!


    "General, you have to decide for the last general!" Li daoyan and Su dingfang entered the military account together. Without waiting for everyone''s response, Li daoyan immediately cried to Li Jing.


    The more Li daoyan said, the more gloomy Li Jing''s face was. A repressive atmosphere filled the whole Chinese Army''s big tent. The generals were silent one by one. Li daoyan also noticed that the atmosphere was wrong and couldn''t help but close his mouth bitterly!


    "Make the decision?" Li Jing''s face was as heavy as iron, and her eyes stared at Li daoyan sharply, which suddenly made Li daoyan''s heart burst and shrink uneasily.


    "On the occasion of the western expedition, the general stressed many times that we should act according to military orders. Datang has signed an alliance with all departments of the party and will not fight each other. Li daoyan has the courage to openly disobey military orders!" Li Jing roared.


    Other generals looked at Li daoyan one after another with bad eyes. It can be said that although the army fought a series of victories, it was extremely difficult. The front was stretched for thousands of miles. It can be said that it was like walking on thin ice. If it was not careful, it would collapse.


    Finally, it all depended on the hard fighting of the front-line officers and men. In the first war, they made all their efforts and returned with their heads. However, they did not expect Li daoyan to catch fire in the backyard. What''s more, they lost the war, which covered a perfect war with an indelible stain.


    "General! The last general is not satisfied. Tuoba chici was supposed to help the tyrants and Tuyuhun kill our Tang army. Is that all?" Li daoyan''s eyes turned red. This is a perfect excuse he finally found to avenge the Tang army.


    "Military orders are like mountains. Our army came here for only one purpose, that is to defeat Tuyuhun. All the others can be put aside. You open the war without permission, let the imperial court break its promise, and put the army behind in danger. You dare to argue!" roared Li Jing.


    At the moment, Li Jing is a pure soldier. He can use all means to achieve his goal, which is why he easily let go of the Tuoba tribe.


    Merton looked at Li daoyan and couldn''t help shaking his head. Li daoyan didn''t understand that his biggest sin was not to attack Tuoba tribe, but to lose the war. If the front-line army made a mistake and Fu Yun and Tuoba fought back and forth, the Tang army might be in danger of losing everything.


    "Somebody, take Li daoyan into custody, put away his military power, and let his majesty down after taking him back to Chang''an city." Li Jing shouted suddenly.


    When the generals were shocked, they couldn''t help but look at Li Jing in surprise and take over his military power. This is a very serious punishment in the army, second only to beheading and making a decision. A senior general has no military power in his hands. I''m afraid he''s not even as good as an ordinary soldier.


    However, no one interceded with Li daoyan. Li daoyan was to blame for this result!


    "Ah!"


    Li daoyan looked at Li Jing in disbelief. Unexpectedly, Li Jing didn''t even leave him a face and directly took him into military custody.


    "I''m the son of the clan and the general granted by your majesty. How dare you Li Jing take over my military power!" Li daoyan roared.


    "Our army can only kill 4000 soldiers in Tuyuhun, and you lose 3000 soldiers in a war. You should be glad that you are the son of the clan, or I will kill you now!" Li Jing said coldly.


    Li Jing, as the commander of the Tang army, can be said to have the power of life and death. Li daoyan was besieged for many days and lost more than 3000 soldiers, almost the sum of the soldiers killed in the war of the Tang army.


    As soon as Li Jing waved, a military judge immediately imprisoned Li daoyan.


    Li daoyan''s cry soon disappeared, but Li Jing''s anger did not go out. Instead, he looked at the generals with a gloomy face and said: "this time, in addition to Tuoba tribe, Ulan tribe was also attacked. General Gao, don''t you want to explain?"


    Brush!


    All eyes immediately focused on Gao Zhensheng. Suddenly, they remembered that the war on the Bank of Qinghai Lake was over, and where the sudden increase of military merit by Gaozheng health department came from.


    Gao Zhensheng''s face suddenly froze. He was much luckier than Li daoyan. After robbing the Ulan tribe, he quickly withdrew and was not surrounded, so he didn''t find the loss.


    "The end will be confused for a moment..." Gao Zheng explained for himself.


    "Military judge, record Gao Zhensheng''s disobedience to military orders and start a war without authorization, and report it to the imperial court for disposal." Li Jing shouted.


    "Yes!" the military judge replied.


    Gao Zhensheng''s eyes could not help but flash a trace of resentment. Li daoyan defeated the war, causing a large number of deaths and injuries to the Tang army, but he was unharmed. He couldn''t believe that Li Jing punished him for Dangxiang tribe.


    "Since you are unkind, don''t blame me for my injustice. You, Li Jing, hold a heavy army, but you are harsh to your own generals and tolerant to foreigners. If you buy people''s hearts like this, won''t you have the heart of rebellion!" Gao Zhengsheng was cruel and left the Chinese army in anger.


    Gao Zhensheng is naturally aware of Li Jing''s position in the imperial court. Li Jing''s military is powerful and responds to everything in the military. The alignment of the imperial court is both reuse and fear. The memorial about Li Jing''s desire to rebel has not appeared on Li Shimin''s Dragon table for the first time.


    This time, Li Jing punished Li daoyan and him so severely for unrelated Dangxiang tribes. Isn''t such an eccentric behavior a tongue in the mouth.


    Gao Zhengsheng returned to the army. He was furious and couldn''t calm down for a long time. At the moment, he invited the pro guards to write a memorial and add fuel to his speculation about Li Jing.


    "Hurry up! Send someone to Chang''an city immediately!" Gao Zhensheng handed the memorial to the guard and ordered.


    "Yes!" the guard immediately took orders to leave.


    With the departure of Li daoyan and Gao Zhensheng, the whole Chinese army was silent.


    "Let''s discuss how to deal with this matter," Li Jing said with a headache.


    "Tell general, Li Gao''s two armies took the initiative to attack all the departments of the party this war, but our army broke the appointment. We lost the gift first!" Duan Zhixuan said with an embarrassed face.


    Cheng Yaojin sneered and said, "what''s the first to lose the gift? I only know that the Tuoba tribe killed our Tang army. It must pay the blood debt of the Tuoba tribe."


    Cheng Yaojin''s words were immediately supported by many generals. Few of the generals were good tempered. Now even Tuyuhun collapsed under the iron hoof of the Tang army, and a small Dangxiang tribe dared to use a knife against the Tang army and kill so many generals. Wouldn''t it make the generals happy.


    "No, we broke the covenant first. If we attacked the Tuoba tribe again, wouldn''t it be a breach of trust in the world and let us sweep the floor of the Tang Dynasty." Duan Zhixuan objected,


    Many generals immediately agreed. Datang respects its reputation most. If it goes to war again, Datang will lose its prestige in the hearts of foreign nationalities in the western regions.


    For a while, the generals of the Chinese army were divided into two factions, one was the main battle and the other was the main peace. The two sides debated endlessly.

 Chapter 572

    One side is the reputation of Datang, and the other side is the blood feud of 3000 soldiers. Li Jing is now in a dilemma. No matter what he does, he will be wrong.


    "No, if we report this to your majesty and wait for the court''s order!" Hou Junji also put forward a delaying policy.


    If the imperial court orders, they can naturally do it. This is also a bad way.


    "No! There are many sour Confucians in the Imperial Hall. They are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality. Once they report to the imperial court, they will certainly let Tuoba chici go. Won''t the lives of 3000 officers and soldiers of our army die in vain?" Cheng Yaojin glared.


    Many radical generals agreed. This place is two thousand miles away from Chang''an city. It takes ten days even to whip it up. Ten days is enough for the Tuoba tribe to escape. At that time, the imperial court ordered that they could not find the Tuoba tribe.


    Li Jing''s face also sank. This is where he was embarrassed.


    Seeing that the army account was in a stalemate again, Merton stood out and said, "I don''t know what to say, boy!"


    When Li Jing saw Merton, she couldn''t help but brighten her eyes and said, "please talk about the sacrifice of ink.


    The generals couldn''t help looking at Merton. It can be said that Merton''s talent was displayed incisively and vividly in this war. Even if Merton''s official spoke lightly, they didn''t despise it at all.


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "this is an emergency. Whether we choose to maintain the reputation of Datang or avenge 3000 soldiers, there is no mistake. However, the most taboo is pending."


    The people nodded deeply. The more the matter dragged on, the more troublesome it was, and the greater the harm to Datang''s reputation.


    Merton suddenly said, "now that we are in a dilemma, but if we look at the matter from another point of view, we may not have such a difficult choice."


    "Another angle?" the generals looked at Merton suspiciously.


    "National interest!" Merton said word by word.


    "National interest!" the generals were stunned. Although this word was heard for the first time, it did not prevent them from understanding the meaning of this word in an instant.


    "Yes, the national interest is the overall interest of the whole Datang. I want Datang to have a foothold in the northwest. First, I rely on the reputation of his majesty and Datang, and second, I rely on the invincible officers and men of Datang. Although Tuoba chici occupied the truth of Li daoyan''s treachery, he had damaged Datang''s national interest when he waved his knife at Datang." Merton solemnly said.


    The generals sighed in their hearts. Sure enough, Mozi was inclined to go to war. They had long found that Mozi was like two extremes. For the Han people, Mozi was extremely generous. He invented various tools and disclosed Mozi''s Secret skills, which benefited countless people in the Tang Dynasty. However, in the face of alien races, Mozi was extremely radical. It was he who was most determined to kill Tuyuhun at the beginning, but now Dangxiang tribe and mojiazi were still like this, but what Merton said was indeed reasonable and justified, and it was difficult for everyone to refute, so they bowed their heads and meditated one after another.


    "If we let go of the Tuoba tribe lightly, it will not only chill the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but also encourage the arrogance of the tribes in the western regions. Today, the Tuoba tribe dares to wave a knife to the Tang Dynasty, and there will certainly be a second Tuoba tribe and a third Tuoba tribe to use force against the Tang Dynasty some day. This is not in the interests of the Tang Dynasty, nor conducive to the stability of the Tang border." Merton analyzed.


    The generals immediately took a breath. At this moment, almost most of the generals were convinced by Merton. Merton was right. The northwest was not disciplined and had their own armed forces, just like a separatist regime. After the elimination of Tuyuhun this time, it was the best time for Datang to control the northwest. It was plain sailing, but suddenly the matter of Tuoba tribe appeared , a careless handling may immediately turn all efforts to defeat Tuyuhun into ashes.


    "But after all, I made a mistake in Datang!" Duan Zhixuan frowned.


    Merton said coldly, "Datang is wrong first, but it''s not the reason why Tuoba chici waved a knife to Datang. General Li can hand over manager Li and Manager Gao to his majesty. Why can''t Tuoba chici write a letter to his majesty."


    The Tang Dynasty attaches great importance to the northwest. There is an organization in charge of these things. Tuoba chici does not have channels to play the imperial court, and Li Jing''s army is about to return. Even if it is too late to report to Chang''an City, you can wait until Li Jing returns!


    "Not bad!" Cheng Yaojin nodded angrily.


    Li Jing''s face suddenly sank. Tuoba chici was already guilty of betraying Tuyuhun. Instead of fearing Datang, he used force against Datang again, which has touched Li Jing''s bottom line.


    "If we send troops to Tuoba tribe, it will almost completely destroy the reputation of the imperial court. Isn''t it the same as the violent Sui Dynasty? I''m afraid we will be pointed out by Wanfu when we return to the dynasty!" Duan Zhixuan said with a bitter smile.


    In this era, credibility is the first, and the promise of thousands of gold is also very popular in the Tang Dynasty. The generals are also dignified figures. Naturally, they pay special attention to their faces. At the thought of betraying their faith to the various departments of the party, the generals have a fever on their faces.


    Merton snorted coldly: "the mission of our soldiers is to safeguard national interests. It is his Majesty''s business to forgive Tuoba Chi''s resignation. Our task is to send Tuoba chi to resign to see his majesty."


    "It''s your Majesty''s business to forgive Tuoba Chi''s resignation, and our task is to send Tuoba chi to resign to see your majesty!" the generals brightened their eyes, and the more they tasted this sentence, the more they marveled.


    They all understood Merton''s meaning, that is, they carried the black pot of treachery and let your majesty go down to be a good man and forgive Tuoba Chi''s words. Of course, the delivery here is by force, and Tuoba chici can''t go to Chang''an city without being caught.


    In this way, they avenged three thousand soldiers and once again shocked the northwest. More importantly, they did good deeds and successfully safeguarded the credibility of Datang.


    "Hahaha, you''re still smart!" Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly and slapped Merton on the shoulder. Merton''s sentence that our task is to send tuobachi to resign to see his majesty is too much with Cheng Yaojin''s appetite.


    The generals also looked at Merton with appreciation. If they themselves did not dare to casually destroy the national reputation, but they could help his majesty carry the black pot, the generals had no psychological obstacles at all.


    In this way, the generals perfectly solved the problem of Datang''s reputation. The biggest reason that prevented them from sending troops has disappeared, and they can''t help looking at Li Jing.


    "What a national interest!"


    Li Jing''s thoughts couldn''t help flying to the northern attack on Turks four years ago. After the Weishui alliance, Li Shimin and Jieli Khan once agreed that the two countries would always be friends. However, in three or four years, there was a snow disaster in Turks, the country was weak, and fighter planes suddenly appeared.


    However, there is still a problem in front of the kings and officials of the Tang Dynasty, that is, the alliance of the Weishui river.


    Before the expedition, Li Shimin also asked his ministers whether this was treacherous and contrary to the alliance of Weishui, but he resolutely sent troops to break the East Turks at one fell swoop.


    Even his majesty Li Jing can betray the covenant for the sake of national interests.


    "Send troops immediately, Tuoba tribe!" Li Jing no longer hesitated and immediately ordered.

 Chapter 573

    "Fuyun is dead!" Tuoba Chizhi said, and his heart trembled.


    The news spread all over the western regions from Khotan, and the whole western regions trembled.


    It was the third day when the battle in YeHu gorge ended when it spread from the western regions to the Qiang people in Longyou and finally to Tuoba chici.


    Tuyuhun Wang Murong Fuyun! After Jieli Khan, another overlord of the western regions was defeated by the Tang Dynasty. What is more unfortunate than Jieli Khan is that he was directly betrayed by the pro guards and died. The name of Guiyi King lost his next master. I don''t know whether Fu Yun was lucky or unfortunate.


    "Is this news true?" a tribal leader couldn''t believe it.


    The head of Ulan tribe nodded bitterly and said, "no mistake. The king of Khotan admitted that he had seen the head of Fuyun with his own eyes."


    Hearing the words of the leader of Ulan tribe, many party leaders were overwhelmed. When they learned that Li Jing''s army had been in charge, they knew that Datang had won a great victory, but they didn''t expect that Fu Yun didn''t escape and died at the hands of Datang.


    Everyone was cold. Khotan was the iron core of Murong Fuyun. Naturally, what he said from his mouth could not be false. For a moment, the ferocity of the Tang army completely restrained all the departments of the party. The leaders couldn''t help but look at Tuoba''s red speech to the Lord.


    "What''s the panic? The Tang army has just gone through a big war. How can the soldiers and horses be tired to start the war again? Besides, it''s our reason. Even if Khan comes, we have something to say!" Tuoba said in a voice.


    "Yes, it''s Tang Jun''s treachery first. How can we wait to die?" the leader of Ulan Tribe said sadly and angrily.


    "Yes! The Tang army deceived people too much!" many tribal leaders shouted one after another.


    When Tuoba chici saw that everyone was united, he was determined that there were so many tribal parties, and Tang Jun had to think twice even if he wanted to turn over.


    Suddenly, a Dangxiang cavalry rushed into the felt tent, his face was frightened, his whole body trembled and said, "tell the leader that the 100000 troops of the Tang army have come towards the Tuoba tribe!"


    In an instant, the whole felt tent was silent, all the arrogant faces of all the leaders just solidified, gradually turned into fear, and soon turned into a dead color.


    "It''s impossible! The Tang Dynasty lost the gift first. How dare you open treachery and take the initiative to fight, so who in the northwest will obey the Tang Dynasty." the head of the Ulan tribe was fierce and timid. He was the one who shouted most before. Now when he heard the Tang Army coming, he was the one who collapsed first. At the beginning, he killed the Tang army''s officers and soldiers in order to revenge. Now the Tang army comes to take revenge, His Ulan tribe will inevitably be liquidated.


    Tuoba chici''s face was pale and he didn''t even have any blood. He knew the Tang Dynasty hall very well. He thought that even if the Tang Dynasty was treacherous in the court hall, his Tuoba tribe would be fine.


    But who would have thought that Li Jing did not play cards according to common sense, did not report to the court, and was not afraid of the rumors of treachery, but directly and openly opened the army.


    "I''m afraid Li Jing won''t give up after we killed so many Tang troops." a party leader stammered and pierced the last fig leaf of each department of the party. At this stage of the war, there are many more people killed and injured in the Tang army than in each department of the party.


    "What should we do? The 300000 troops in Tuyuhun were defeated by the Tang army. How can we be the opponents of the Tang army?" a tribal leader said urgently.


    People shuddered at the thought of the ferocity of the Tang army. Not all the Tang army were as careless as the Chishui road army, especially the 8000 cavalry who attacked last. They were frightened by its ferocity.


    What''s more, the fierce troops who defeated Tuyuhun this time, and there are famous generals like Li Jing, how can they be opponents.


    "Why don''t we drive the cattle and sheep out of the station and run away!" the leader of Ulan trembled. If Tang Jun found it, it would be necessary for him to settle. He had already broken his courage and just wanted to leave and run away.


    "Escape!" Tuoba chici hummed coldly, "Fuyun fled to 800 miles of the Han sea. It''s different. Tang Jun found him. Where can we escape?"


    Nowadays, only when all the departments of Dangxiang are in a group can they have a chance of survival. If they flee in a scattered way, they may be like such a big Tuyuhun, which is dismembered by the Tang army and has no power to fight back. Moreover, Tuyuhun has a territory of thousands of miles and naturally has the capital to escape. However, the territory of all ethnic groups in Dangxiang is not large, so there are so many places for strategic maneuver.


    As soon as Tuoba chici''s voice fell, everyone immediately focused their resentment on Tuoba chici''s face. It was Tuoba chici who encouraged them and once guaranteed that the Tang army would not dare to violate the covenant again. They all believed that they sent troops to attack the Tang army.


    Now the Tang army came to settle. This time, they were killed by Tuoba chici.


    Tuoba chici said in a stern voice, "if the Tang army kills it, it will kill it. It''s no use regretting it again. For today''s plan, only by uniting as one, can all departments of our party survive."


    The leaders were silent. Although they resented Tuoba chici, they couldn''t leave it now. For today''s plan, they had to trust him.


    "Why don''t we invite old clan leader hule to talk about it!" the people suddenly remembered old clan leader hule who had been left out before. They couldn''t help but regret. At that time, they were stunned by anger. At the beginning, they laughed at old clan leader hule''s cowardice, and now they really admire old clan leader hule''s foresight.


    Now the party''s departments and the Tang army are in a state of great momentum. Only the hule patriarch who did not participate in the war has maintained a good relationship with the Tang army. This time, even Tuoba chici did not refuse. After all, this is still a glimmer of hope. If we really fight, Tuoba chici really has no confidence in his heart.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Think twice, general!" regardless of his old age, the head of the hule clan stopped the Tang army fifty miles away from the Tuoba tribe.


    "Our Dangxiang departments were vulgar and offended the Chinese army. Please forgive Dangxiang this time for the sake of our Dangxiang departments'' no credit and hard work." the old clan leader of hule humbly bowed to the ground and begged. Moreover, he did not mention that the Tang army took the initiative to attack Tuoba department.


    He fought with Tuoba tribe for many years. Although they were all subordinate to Tuoba chici, they were all internal disputes. But he didn''t want to see Tuoba chici drag the whole party into the abyss.


    Li Jing hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said, "old clan leader hule embarrassed Li. More than 3000 soldiers died wrongly at the hands of Dangxiang. How can you tell the general to the soldiers and the court?"


    The old clan leader hule said sadly, "our party has always admired the reputation of Tianhe Khan. I heard that Tianhe Khan fought in the west, but I was happy to follow him, but who ever wanted to destroy this great situation because of a little misunderstanding."


    Li Jing couldn''t help sighing for a while: "to tell you the truth, the general has ordered Gao Zhensheng and Li daoyan to be punished by the court. This is the end of the two people''s self blame and breaking the covenant."


    Old clan leader hule''s heart clicked. Li Jing punished his own generals. Naturally, he would not let go of the party.


    "If we hand over Tuoba chici and Ulan leader to the Tang army, I wonder if the general can withdraw." old clan leader hule gritted his teeth ruthlessly. If we can sacrifice them, we can preserve the whole Dangxiang tribe. Even if he tries his best, he will achieve it.


    Li Jing sighed and looked at the old man who had contributed his life to Dangxiang tribe. He shook his head and said, "the lives of three thousand soldiers can''t be offset by two people."


    The old clan leader of hule said sadly and angrily, "does my general really want to destroy our party?"


    "No!" Li Jing shook her head and said, "injustice has a head and debt has a master. Our Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. How can we do that kind of killing? Our army has only one goal, that is, Tuoba tribe and Wulan tribe. Before that, if anyone stood in front of the Tang army, it was the enemy of the Tang army."


    Li Jing doesn''t care about the alliance of all parties and departments. In his opinion, there is no difference between a Tuoba tribe and the whole party.


    The old clan leader hule staggered away. Although the Tang army gave hope to the students of all departments of Dangxiang, it destroyed the hope of the rise of Dangxiang tribe. Once other tribes abandoned Tuoba tribe and Ulan tribe, I''m afraid the whole Dangxiang will be distracted and alienated, and can no longer be twisted into a rope.

 Chapter 574

    "Leader Tuoba, i..." a party leader walked into Tuoba''s red felt tent with a ashamed face and said yes.


    "Even your Hulan tribe betrayed us. The year before last, your Hulan tribe suffered a disaster. If it weren''t for the assistance of leader Tuoba, how could your Hulan tribe be as large as it is now." the Ulan leader on the side wanted to split his eyes and scolded the Hulan leader loudly.


    "The Tang army is powerful, and we are helpless!" the Hulan leader said in shame. However, if they don''t get away, I''m afraid they will be buried with the Tuoba tribe.


    "Hulan leader doesn''t need to say more, Tuoba tribe understands!" Tuoba chici waved his hand before Hulan leader finished.


    Since the leader of the hule clan sent the request of the Tang army, there are many similar to the Hulan tribe. Since the target of the Tang army is still the Tuoba tribe and the Ulan tribe, these small tribes naturally do not need to be buried with them.


    Although everyone knew that this was the plan of the Tang army to alienate, the dead Taoist friends did not die. A small tribe had the opportunity to escape and naturally couldn''t wait to leave.


    Hulan leader immediately blushed with shame and said in a ashamed voice: "Hulan tribe left 300 sets of iron armor to help Tuoba tribe. I hope Tuoba leader can take care of it."


    The 300 sets of iron armor here is not an ordinary gift. The nomadic people''s iron ware is very rare. Most nomadic people''s armor is leather armor, and their defense is very weak. I''m afraid the 300 sets of iron armor have been accumulated by several generations of Hulan tribe, which is a generous gift.


    "Hulan leader has a heart!" Tuoba chici showed a rare smile. 300 pieces of iron armor are extremely valuable even in Tuoba tribe.


    Subsequently, many departments of the party, large and small, came to bid farewell, some leaving cattle and sheep, some leaving iron armor, and some leaving bow and arrow weapons.


    Soon, only Tuoba tribe and Ulan tribe remained in the whole Tuoba tribe.


    "Toot!" the horn of the gathering suddenly blew,


    The soldiers of the two tribes gathered one after another. With the assistance of the various departments of the party, tens of thousands of cavalry of the two tribes were almost half dressed in iron armor, and their combat effectiveness increased sharply.


    Tuoba chici looked at the majestic Dangxiang cavalry in front of him and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "this time there is no power of a war. It is not so easy for the Tang army to swallow our Tuoba Ulan tribe."


    The leader of Ulan nodded heavily, and the lesson of Fuyun''s escape was in front of them. Naturally, they would not make such a mistake. Now, only World War I can have the vitality of their two tribes.


    The two films are waiting for the arrival of the Tang army.


    "Boom!"


    When a large number of Tang cavalry arrived, they saw that the Dangxiang cavalry in full battle readiness had to rein in their horses and confront each other.


    Under the escort of a large number of Tang troops, Li Jing came forward and looked at the Dangxiang cavalry standing still in front of him. He couldn''t help praising: "Tuoba chici is worthy of being a hero of a generation, but his talent for unifying the army is somewhat extraordinary. Li daoyan was wronged, but I''m afraid that''s the achievement of an alien in his life."


    The seemingly unbreakable camp of Tuoba tribe is full of flaws in Li Jing''s eyes. At present, Li Jing waved his hand and said, "Su dingfang, you should be the pioneer in this war!"


    Although the battle of YeHu gorge caused heavy losses to Li daoyan, Li Jing had an unexpected harvest, that is, Su dingfang, who led 8000 wounded soldiers to defeat the Dangxiang army and rescue the Chishui road army, which was particularly prominent among the generals.


    "Yes!"


    Su dingfang took command and led the soldiers of the 8000 wounded barracks to the Dangxiang position.


    Many generals looked at Su dingfang''s back with envy. Before that, Su dingfang was just an insignificant General of the Tang army. However, the western expedition was brilliant. The 16th guard general led only more than 10000 soldiers, and Su dingfang suddenly led 8000 wounded barracks. I''m afraid it won''t be long, The 16th General of the Tang Dynasty will certainly have su dingfang.


    "It''s the cavalry again!" Tuoba chici looked at Su dingfang''s familiar flag and felt cold in his eyes. It was the sudden appearance of the cavalry that made his abacus lose. Of course, there was also the reason why he didn''t want to fight with Datang. It wasn''t that his Tuoba tribe really didn''t have enough strength to compete with him.


    "Somebody, stop him!" Tuoba chici waved his hand and immediately a group of elite cavalry of Tuoba tribe attacked.


    The two cavalry crashed together. Tuoba chici sent the most elite cavalry of Tuoba tribe. Rao was so, but he was still pressed by Su dingfang''s wounded camp. However, Tuoba chici was relieved that he was blocked at least.


    However, what surprised him was that the elite soldiers of the Tang army were not only the wounded battalion, but the subsequent large number of cavalry were as ferocious as the wounded battalion. If the whole Party and all departments were not supporting the iron armor and weapons of the Tuoba tribe, I''m afraid the Tuoba tribe would have been defeated.


    "Tuoba tribe has so many iron armor!" Hou Junji was surprised at the problem of Mohism in the battlefield. Although Dangxiang cavalry wore iron armor, it was not as good as the armor of the Tang Dynasty, but the gap had narrowed infinitely. In addition, Dangxiang cavalry was skilled in bowing and horses, and the Tang army really couldn''t help them for a moment.


    Looking at the form of the battlefield, Li Jing nodded and said, "Tuoba chici is indeed a talent, but when a person''s fists are stretched out, his back will be exposed around him, and now is the strongest and weakest time of Tuoba tribe."


    Hou Junji was thoughtful and quickly looked at the battlefield. He saw that on the battlefield, after the continuous mobilization of the Tang army, the Tuoba tribe and the Ulan tribe had been unknowingly separated, and the whole front was pulled very long.


    "Kill!" suddenly, a group of Tang troops suddenly killed from behind the Tuoba tribe.


    "Left leader guard!" Hou Junji looked at the flag and suddenly realized that Li Jing still had a hand and sent the left leader guard around behind the Tuoba tribe.


    "Drive!"


    Cheng Yaojin shouted loudly and galloped with his horse. Behind him, the left leading guards all looked dusty. It was obvious that they had just traveled a long way.


    "General Li is true. Although we are good at long-distance attack, we can''t catch a sheep and pull the wool hard!" Merton complained. The paper in his hand fell, which recorded the road map of the long-distance attack of the left leading guard, and its ultimate goal is the battlefield in front of us.


    Merton''s riding skills are not good. He didn''t want to make a long-distance attack. Unfortunately, he was tied together by Cheng Yaojin. Without Merton''s calculation roadmap and direction, he was not sure to arrive at the battlefield on time. Once the left leader guard loses his time, I''m afraid all his previous contributions will be lost.


    "Kill!"


    The left leading guard, like a sharp knife, killed behind the Tuoba tribe and dealt a fatal blow to Tuoba chici.


    "How could there be a Tang army!" Tuoba Chizhi said, and the soul of the dead took a big risk. His scouts have been all over for decades. Originally, he thought he had found out the strength of the Tang army, but he didn''t expect another Tang army to fall from the sky.


    Tuoba chici looked at the left leader guard directly inserted into the back of the cavalry of Tuoba tribe. The whole battlefield suddenly turned downward, and Tuoba tribe immediately fell into the disadvantage.


    "Defend!" Tuoba Chi said, gritting his teeth and suddenly urging the horn.


    In an instant, the cavalry of Tuoba tribe began to gather, gradually stood firm and began to fight back. However, before Tuoba chici could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw black pimples flying up and down from the Tang army camp to join the party''s Xiang cavalry.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    With a loud noise and flames, a large number of warriors of the Tuoba tribe fell off their horses. The Dangxiang warriors, who have always been famous for their bravery, died and were seriously injured without fighting back. Soon the besieged Tang army seized the opportunity and immediately attacked on a large scale. The defensive formation of the Tuoba tribe, Li Jing, was hit everywhere.


    "The mysterious army is also there!"


    Tuoba Chizhi''s eyes darkened. This time, the Tuoba tribe was finished. He didn''t fight positional warfare with the Tang army just to guard against this army, but who could have thought he couldn''t escape.


    "Call in the gold, we''ll surrender!"


    Tuoba chici ordered with a gray face. If you surrender, you may be able to save the soldiers of the Tuoba tribe, but if you fight to the end, I''m afraid the Tuoba tribe will be completely destroyed today.


    When Tuoba chici was brought to Li Jing, there was still no rest on battlefield.


    "I will not surrender, I will never surrender. Our Dangxiang tribe is an eagle on the grassland. How can it kneel at the feet of the Han people? Tuoba chici, you are a disgrace to Dangxiang." = the leader of Ulan roared sadly and angrily.


    "Kill!"


    A large number of Wulan tribe cavalry and many brave Tuoba tribe cavalry charged the Tang army fearlessly.


    "Boom, boom!"


    The explosion of a large number of grenades sounded, and Tuoba Chi closed his eyes painfully.


    After a long time, the sound of fighting on the battlefield slowly stopped. There was a dead silence on the whole battlefield. The whole Ulan tribe was destroyed, and the Tuoba tribe suffered heavy losses.


    "Sinner Tuoba chici kowtows to General Li!" Tuoba chici is dishevelled and looks like a failure, and he no longer commands the whole Party style in the past.


    "Tuoba chici, do you know the sin!" Li Jing looked at Tuoba chici with an expressionless face.


    If it were before today, Tuoba Chi''s words would be generous, counting the dishonesty of the Tang Dynasty first. However, at the moment, Tuoba Chi''s words are still thousands of words, but he can''t speak, so he can only hang his head silently


    "Sinners know their sins, and sinners are willing to forgive them with death. Please be generous and escape Tuoba tribe." Tuoba chici humbly asked.


    Since Tang Jun didn''t directly kill the cavalry of Tuoba tribe, it means that Tuoba tribe still has hope. Tuoba tribe couldn''t help raising bursts of hope. Even if he used his own life for the existence of Tuoba tribe, he was willing.


    Just as Tuoba Chi resigned and closed her eyes to die, Li Jing suddenly shook her head and said with a smile: "it seems that Tuoba leader still doesn''t know what crime he has committed? It''s my Tang Dynasty''s fault first. How can I kill innocent people against Tuoba tribe."


    Tuoba chici''s eyes immediately opened, and he couldn''t believe looking at Li Jing. He didn''t hear wrong. Li Jing directly admitted that Datang was wrong first.


    "I X!" Tuoba chici wanted to curse. Since you know that Datang was wrong first, how can you raise an army to attack.


    But on the surface, Tuoba chici was still frightened and said, "please teach me!"


    "Is it the king''s land and the king''s minister? Since Li daoyan is wrong, it''s not an excuse for you to use force. Tian Khan has presided over justice for Tuoba tribe. Now Li daoyan is about to be escorted back to Korea. How can you be a plaintiff in this late trial?" Li Jing said sternly.


    Tuoba chici is a very smart man. He immediately understood the plan of the Tang army. The Tang army not only wants to maintain the reputation of the Tang Dynasty, but also revenge the 3000 soldiers in Chishui road. Therefore, the Tang army must break through the Tuoba tribe to deter other tribes, but also preserve the Tuoba tribe to show the reputation of the imperial court.


    Tuoba chici can even imagine his end. In this trial, he will win, because Datang''s reputation can''t destroy promise. However, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to return to Qingtang again in his life. Just like Jieli Khan, he will be a doll in Chang''an city.


    He understood that Li Jing was making rules. Once there was a conflict, Tian Khan needed to preside over justice. If anyone dared to use force privately, Tuoba tribe would end up.


    "Tuoba understands!" Tuoba chici buried his head deeply in the soil. One side is his own honor and disgrace, and the other is the survival of his tribe. It is not difficult for Tuoba chici to make a choice.


    The generals also sighed for a while. At the beginning, the army came to take Fu Yun back to replace Jieli Khan. However, who knows that the timing is wrong. Fu Yun died, but he brought back Tuoba chici to the imperial court. Just don''t know how Tuoba chici''s Hu Xuan dance is?


    "Come on, gather the battlefield and collect all the weapons of the two tribes of Tuoba and Ulan." Li Jing said loudly.


    "Yes!"


    Immediately, a large number of soldiers came forward and collected the weapons of the two tribes of Tuoba Ulan who surrendered dead and wounded.


    When seeing mountains of iron armor and steel knives, Li Jing''s face was as gloomy as water, and the generals of the Tang army couldn''t help taking a breath.


    They were surprised that Tuoba Ulan was just two tribes, but they could attack the most elite army of the Tang army. When they saw so many armor, they suddenly realized.


    "General, Tuoba chici has explained that most of these armor and weapons come from other party departments!" Cheng Yaojin came to Li Jing and reported.


    The generals were a little relieved. If all the departments of the party were at this level, the Datang military would be on tenterhooks.


    Merton shook his head and said, "if other tribes support Tuoba tribe, how can they take out all their iron armor weapons? At most three have achieved good results. According to this calculation, there are so many iron armor and weapons left in each tribe."


    Li Jing''s face sank and said, "so, all the departments of the party still have the strength of a war."


    The biggest reason why Tuoba chici had such confidence to resist the Tang Dynasty was that the troops of the various departments of Dangxiang were strong, and the place of Qingtang depended on the Tang Dynasty and had more opportunities to get iron weapons. Only then did Dangxiang tribe accumulate so many iron armor and its strength soared.


    At this time, the most elite troops of Datang are here, and another famous general defeated the two tribes of Tuoba and Ulan again. If the army leaves, all departments of the party will support and respect themselves, which is not conducive to Datang''s control of Qinghai!

 Chapter 575

    Hou Junji said in a deep voice, "the war is over. We have to go to war with Tuoba tribe without your Majesty''s permission. It''s already beyond the border. Now it''s really inappropriate to create new problems. If we don''t retreat for the time being, we''ll make plans after reporting to the court."


    Many generals nodded one after another. As long as they return to Chang''an City, it must be a great achievement. Why bother? Moreover, for the first time, there are justifiable reasons to avenge 3000 soldiers. However, if the court approves it twice in a row and takes the initiative to fight, I''m afraid it will touch the bottom line of the court.


    Cheng Yaojin shook his head and retorted, "it''s a crime of rebellion to hide the armor privately among the people. Now the land of Qinghai is about to be under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty. It''s a great dereliction of duty for us to ignore so many armor hidden here."


    In the Tang Dynasty, ordinary soldiers need to bring their own weapons, which are just swords, bows and arrows. Armor and some heavy weapons are also the same methods in the army. Hiding armor privately is a great crime.


    Many generals nodded one after another. There are so many iron armor in Qingtang. This is a potential threat and is not in the interests of the military.


    When Merton saw that the generals were in a dilemma again, his eyes moved and said, "it is already a fact that there are a flood of iron armor in the green pond. Since we are in a dilemma, we can still use a standard to judge."


    "National interests!" the generals said in unison.


    Merton was embarrassed and said with a smile: "yes, the border has never been calm. The reason is still that these tribes support and respect their soldiers and refuse to discipline. If these tribes lose their strongest force, I''m afraid there won''t be so many things at the border."


    The generals nodded. The thin leather armor of the northwest cavalry alone could not stop the sharp blade of Datang. Without the protection of iron armor, the cavalry of all nationalities in the Northwest were not the opponent of Datang at all.


    "Moreover, we have no reason for this. These tribes openly support the soldiers of Ulan Tuoba tribe against Datang. How can we give up this matter? If Datang doesn''t take the opportunity to collect the iron armor in Qingtang this time, I''m afraid there will be no chance in the future. Now the iron armor weapons of all departments in Tuyuhun have been collected by the army. If the iron armor overflows in Qingtang, it will not be used for a long time There will be no second Tuyuhun, "Merton said solemnly. He clearly remembers the rise of Dangxiang in later generations, but how miserable it was to harm the Song Dynasty! Countless Han people died at the hands of Dangxiang iron kite.


    "But how can those Dangxiang tribes obediently hand over their armor and weapons? Directly say no, we can still force it. In this way, the war will not start again!" Hou Junji looked at Merton unkindly. He found that after he reached the border, the Mohist changed the image of the former scholars and became extremely aggressive. He simply didn''t stop at all.


    Li Jing was also embarrassed for a while. He had started a war without authorization. If he started a war with the local tribes again, I''m afraid it would be really difficult to explain to the imperial court.


    "Why is it difficult? Boy, there''s a good thing here. It''s useless, but it has a natural attraction to iron." Merton proudly took out an oval thing, motioned to the public, Cui Hou, gently approached his armor, and heard a slap. It stuck with the armor.


    "What is this?" Cheng Yaojin curiously took the oval object and put it on his armor. He found that as soon as it was close to the iron, it was directly and firmly stuck to it.


    Merton said with a smile, "this is the latest developed magnet of Mohism. It only has natural attraction to ironware. If the local tribe has a large number of iron armor, I believe there is no hiding in front of these magnets."


    This magnet was specially made when the Mohist school made the compass. Unexpectedly, it was used in this place.


    "If so!"


    Cheng Yaojin was surprised. He was very interested in playing. He didn''t enjoy adsorbing armor with a magnet. He tested his horse and steel knife one by one. Sure enough, he could adsorb, even across things.


    Other generals were also curious. They picked up the magnet and tested it one after another. It was true. Many generals took the most common copper and gold and silver, but there was no movement at all.


    "It''s so mysterious!"


    People can''t help but marvel. No matter how much copper and gold and silver there are in the northwest, they can''t pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty. Only iron is the focus. Who would have thought that the Mohist school had a special method to explore iron.


    As soon as the generals'' eyes lit up, they couldn''t help thinking of the wonderful use of this thing. If it was used to check the gate of the city, I''m afraid the problem of carrying weapons without permission would be greatly reduced.


    Li Jing thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "this time, we will return to Lanzhou from the place of Qingtang."


    Li Jing played a marginal ball and explained to the court that the army was just going around a long way.


    "Wise general!" Merton couldn''t help smiling.


    At present, hundreds of thousands of Tang troops started one after another, never retreating but advancing, and continued to go north towards Qingtang.


    "Tuoba Chi''s speech was defeated!"


    "The Tang army came from the green pond!"


    The whole green pond was in an uproar! The experience of Tuoba chici had been spread all over Qingtang for a long time. The Tang army did not liquidate the Tuoba tribe, but left Tuoba chici alive, which reassured them a little. However, the direction of the Tang army''s March terrified them.


    "Is Datang going to betray his faith again!" many Dangxiang tribes said in fear. You know, when attacking the Chishui Dao army, it was not only Tuoba and Ulan tribes, but also many tribes. Is Tang Jun going to settle accounts after autumn.


    After getting the rumors, the old clan leader hule finally arrived in front of the Hulan tribe. This time, however, Li Jing did not show up at all, but sent Cheng Yaojin, a cheeky man, to receive the old clan leader hule.


    "What does Tang Jun mean? We have an agreement. As long as we carry the Tuoba tribe on our back, we will let bygones be bygones?" Hu Le''s old clan chief Beard said angrily.


    "Don''t worry, old clan leader hule. Since General Li has promised to let bygones be bygones, I Tang will certainly keep my promise. Just now, old clan leader hule also met Tuoba tribe and Tuoba clan leader, which is enough to prove Tang''s sincerity!" Cheng Yaojin vowed with big teeth.


    Old man hule was a little relieved when he remembered that Tuoba chici was still alive and that Tuoba tribe still existed, but he still asked, "then why does the Chinese army want to pass through our Dangxiang tribe?"


    Cheng Yaojin opened the river: "it''s all due to the old thief Fuyun. At the beginning, Fuyun was crazy and lit the whole grassland for the sake of harming the grassland. Now it''s thousands of miles from YeHu gorge to Lanzhou. There''s no supply at all. How can war horses move forward on an empty stomach? They have to. That''s why they bypass the land of Qingtang."

 Chapter 576

    Old clan leader hule secretly despised Cheng Yaojin. At the beginning, he knew better than anyone why Fuyun set fire to the grassland. Naturally, there were 10000 reasons why he didn''t believe the Tang army. Besides, it was July now. Fuyun''s fire burned dead grass. After a rain on the grassland, I''m afraid he had recovered his vitality long ago. There was a lack of forage.


    However, the situation was stronger than people. The old clan leader of hule could only follow Cheng Yaojin''s ghost saying: "I see. The army came all the way and was dusty. I hule tribe prepared some cattle and sheep to reward the army. Please don''t dislike it."


    Cheng Yaojin smiled and accepted it without mercy. His words changed: "in addition, there is another purpose of our trip, that is, the armor of the 3000 soldiers who died in the war in the Tang Dynasty is missing! Once these sharp weapons fall into the hands of some people with evil intentions, I''m afraid it will be a great disaster. We must try our best to recover them. We are also for the stability of the grassland."


    "Three thousand armor!"


    Old clan leader hule suddenly understood Tang Jun''s intention when he heard the speech. He couldn''t help laughing bitterly. Since ancient times, money has not been left blank. In this war, many iron armor of all departments of Dangxiang finally attracted Tang''s attention.


    He said that the reason why the departments of Dangxiang could survive between the Tang Dynasty and Tuyuhun was that there were many powerful armor. This time, Tuoba chici and the first war of the Tang army completely exposed the strength of the departments of Dangxiang, and the Tang army naturally could not tolerate the departments of Dangxiang to have so many armor.


    "But all the armor has been taken away by Tuoba chici. Now I''m afraid it has fallen into the hands of the Chinese Army!" old clan leader hule asked carefully.


    Cheng Yaojin said with a smile, "but how did the general hear that many Dangxiang tribes left with many iron armor this time? I don''t know whether these iron armor are the armor of our army officers and soldiers. Don''t worry, clan leader hule. The general just needs to see it. As long as it''s not, he will return it intact immediately."


    Old clan leader hule turned his eyes helplessly. If the iron armor fell into the hands of Tang Jun, I''m afraid it would be a sheep''s mouth and a tiger''s mouth. It''s impossible.


    "If you don''t let me personally persuade Hulan tribe," the old clan leader hule said helplessly.


    Cheng Yaojin said with a smile, "I don''t need it. I believe Hulan tribe will make a wise choice."


    When Cheng Yaojin and hule old clan leader appeared in front of Hulan leader, Hulan leader immediately looked at hule old clan leader with hopeful eyes.


    Old clan leader hule shook his head helplessly and opened his mouth to say a number.


    "Five hundred armor! Where can Hulan tribe have so many armor!" the Hulan leader exclaimed. In order to repay the kindness of Tuoba tribe, he directly gave half of the iron armor of the tribe to Tuoba chici. Now there are only 300 iron armor left in the tribe, and he can''t take out 500 iron armor anyway.


    Cheng Yaojin said coldly, "Hulan tribe was very generous when giving iron armor. How can it be so stingy now."


    If these tribes hadn''t armed the Tuoba tribe, otherwise they would have been able to defeat the Tuoba tribe with less losses. Of course, Cheng Yaojin didn''t like these tribes.


    "But my Hulan tribe doesn''t have so many iron armor at all." Hulan leader gritted his teeth and said.


    Cheng Yaojin said indifferently, "there is no iron armor. You can use leather armor. Five leather armor is worth one iron armor, but at least 30% of the iron armor!"


    On the grassland, although leather jackets are common, they are not shoddy, but many leather armor are mixed with many iron tools. The value of five leather armor is almost the same as that of iron armor.


    "Otherwise, our army will search the tribe in person, and no iron block will be left for the Hulan tribe." Cheng Yaojin stopped and Merton came forward to personally demonstrate the effect of the magnet in front of the Hulan leader.


    The Hulan leader''s last fantasy was immediately dispelled. In a hurry, those iron armor could not be hidden at all. If they took the initiative to hand in, they could save some iron armor, otherwise they would lose more. The Hulan tribe would not hurt its muscles and bones if they lost their armor. If even the bows, arrows, swords and swords were taken away, it would be the disaster of destruction.


    "350 pieces of iron armor, that''s equivalent to 1750 pieces of leather armor!" the Hulan leader couldn''t help but feel a pang of pain. As a result, the force of his Hulan tribe fell to the lowest point in an instant.


    Hulan leader didn''t expect to resist, but when he saw so many Tang troops here, Hulan tribe had no resistance at all. In addition, Tang Jun didn''t touch the bottom line of Hulan tribe and didn''t kill or rob cattle and sheep. He could only hand over 150 pieces of iron armor and 1750 pieces of leather armor!


    Cheng Yaojin nodded after checking the iron armor and leather armor and turned to report to Li Jing.


    "So many armor?" Li Jing exclaimed. Hulan tribe directly gave Tuoba chici 300 armor and took out 150 armor. There are so many armor in a tribe. I''m afraid the force of dozens of tribes in the whole party can''t be underestimated!


    Other generals also nodded and paid attention to the departments of the party for the first time. They could not help but rejoice that they listened to Merton''s suggestions this time, otherwise the departments of the party would certainly be a potential threat in the future.


    "Tell the general! In my opinion, Hulan tribe must have iron armor, or it will be forced again." Cheng Yaojin was eager to try.


    Li Jing shook her head and said, "no, our purpose is to weaken the armed forces of the tribes in Dangxiang and lose the cavalry protected by iron armor, which is not a big threat to our Tang Dynasty."


    Even if Hulan tribe can keep some, it is very few. There is no threat at all. Why should Hulan tribe be forced to a dead end? The generals nodded one after another.


    Watching Tang Jun roar past, Hulan leader breathed a sigh of relief.


    "Leader, shall we inform other tribes to hide the armor in advance?" said a Hulan warrior, whose armor was taken by the Tang army.


    Hulan leader glared at the man with hatred and said, "now my Hulan tribe has lost so many iron armor and its strength has greatly decreased. If other tribes are strong, it must be my Hulan tribe that will suffer in the end."


    The grassland is not a pure land, and the competition between tribes is also particularly cruel. In order to compete for water and pasture, there are often battles on the grassland. From time to time, some small tribes disappear silently in the grassland.


    The Tang army went all the way north. Under the threat of strong force, all tribes handed in sufficient iron and leather armor, including hule tribe.


    When Li Jing''s army arrived in Lanzhou, it collected nearly 10000 iron armor and 30000 leather armor. Such a powerful force made everyone burst into a cold sweat.


    Just when Li Jing collected a large number of armor from various tribes in Qingtang, the battle of YeHu gorge spread all over Chang''an city. The people were angry and shouted at Li daoyan''s incompetence, and the chaotang hall was in an uproar.

 Chapter 577

    During this period of time, the whole Chang''an city can be twists and turns. First, the army went deep into thousands of miles and there was no news of the expedition, which worried the whole country.


    Then came the news of Qiemo city. The Tang army captured Tuyuhun''s last strength. Tuyuhun won a great victory in the western expedition. Tuyuhun had no room to resist. When the good news came, Chang''an City cheered.


    The only regret is that the old fox Fuyun escaped again, and fled to the 800 mile sea. The left leader guard and the firearm supervisor pursued again, which worried everyone.


    After half a month''s anxious waiting in Chang''an City, the news came that the left leader guard and the firearm supervisor returned with great victory and returned with their heads.


    Suddenly, the whole country cheered. Tuyuhun, an old enemy, was finally defeated in the hands of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin ordered an immediate strike for three days to celebrate.


    In particular, the Tang Dynasty, with the disadvantage of 1000 cavalry, raised a flag of the Tang Dynasty, which scared off nearly 10000 Khotan cavalry, which made everyone enjoy talking about it.


    However, before Li Shimin''s comfortable life passed, the news that Chishui Dao army robbed Tuoba tribe without authorization came again. What made Li Shimin angry was that Li daoyan was almost defeated and saved by Su dingfang''s 8000 wounded soldiers.


    "Li daoyan is incompetent, and three thousand soldiers die innocent!" Li Shimin roared.


    All the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty were speechless. A happy western expedition was almost called a laughing stock by Li daoyan. However, Li daoyan was a descendant of the clan. It was really inconvenient for all the courtiers to express their opinions.


    Li Shimin''s heart is dripping blood. Three thousand soldiers are not a small number. The huge pension cost is not to mention for the time being. At the thought of Datang man''s unjust loss of life, Li Shimin feels blushed and has no face to explain to these soldiers'' parents.


    "The Tuoba tribe dares to use force against us in the Tang Dynasty! It''s unforgivable. Please order to calm the Tuoba tribe, or our soldiers in the Tang Dynasty will be cold." Qin Qiong said angrily.


    Other military forces have joined in. Now the Tang army has even eliminated Tuyuhun. The land of the western regions is invincible. How can it give up after suddenly suffering such a heavy loss in Tuoba chici''s hand.


    "Don''t! It''s my fault in the Tang Dynasty. If we launch another campaign against the Tuoba tribe, how can people all over the world see me in the Tang Dynasty." changsun Wuji hurriedly said. He knew Li Shimin best, knew that Li Shimin valued the name of Tian Khan most and liked him.


    Many civil servants agree.


    The whole court is also divided into two factions, one is advocating military Crusade, and the other is trying to avoid the credibility of the Tang Dynasty and let go of the Tuoba tribe.


    Li Shimin hesitated immediately. It was related to his name in tiankhan and the reputation of Datang in the northwest tribes, but he didn''t want to be dumb like this.


    While the whole court was debating, suddenly a censor suddenly came out and said, "tell your majesty, Gao Zhensheng, the front-line Lizhou assassin, told Li Jing, the chief manager of xihaidao, to support the troops and respect themselves, to fish for fame and reputation, to be partial to other nationalities, and to have the intention of rebellion."


    As soon as the censor''s voice fell, he suddenly burst into an uproar.


    Li Jing is not only the military God of the Tang Dynasty, but also the chief manager of the western expedition. He holds the most elite army of the Tang Dynasty. If he wants to rebel, I''m afraid the Tang Dynasty will shake three times.


    "Gao Zhengsheng?" Li Jing asked back as soon as her face changed.


    "Tell your majesty that Gao Zhengsheng also attacked Wulan tribe and was punished by General Li." Qin Qiong bowed.


    The ministers immediately looked at each other. Rumors about Li Jing''s rebellion have been circulating in the court hall. The biggest reason is that Li Jing''s military front is too prosperous. I''m afraid no one can resist in case of rebellion.


    This time, Gao Zhengsheng reported that Li Jing punished them for attacking Dangxiang tribe. This kind of behavior in favor of other nationalities really violated the sensitive nerve of chaotang.


    "Your Majesty, Gao and Li have indeed violated military orders. There is nothing wrong with General Li punishing them." Qin Qiong bowed.


    "Yes, military orders are like mountains. Our expedition is full of difficulties. Gao Li and Li did not hesitate to violate military orders in order to falsely claim military merit. They should have been punished!" Yuchi Gong said.


    Many generals also echoed and denounced Gao Li''s crazy behavior.


    The censor who spoke before bowed his head and suddenly showed a strange smile. Many military generals defended Li Jing one after another and didn''t know they were right. The more people who supported Li Jing, the more dangerous Li Jing''s exit would be.


    Li Shimin said expressionless, "you Aiqing think how to deal with this matter."


    For a moment, there was silence.


    "Since Gao Jishi has appealed to the court, the court naturally wants to find out and verify it, or return General Li''s innocence!" Fang Xuanling said reluctantly. He is the first of all officials. Naturally, he should come forward at this time.


    "I agree with you!" Sun Wuji agreed.


    "Minister and others seconded!"


    All the ministers echoed the Tao one after another.


    "In that case, the Secretary of Dali temple..." Li Shimin was about to order, when suddenly a bodyguard directly entered the Tai Chi hall.


    "Tell your majesty that the front line is 800 miles away!" the bodyguard shouted.


    Since the beginning of the western expedition, Li Shimin has ordered that everything about the western expedition can be directly reported to the Taiji hall, and no one can stop it.


    All the officials are worried. They will use it only when there is a war. Now that voyun has been killed and Tuyuhun has been settled, how can there be a war? Is it true what Gao Zhengsheng told us!


    Li Shimin shrunk his eyes and stretched out his hand. Pangdeli was about to take the urgent report and hand it to Li Shimin.


    When Li Shimin opened it and saw the contents of the urgent report, he suddenly relaxed. Li Shimin read the urgent report for a quarter of an hour.


    "I don''t know what''s going on at the front?" Fang Xuanling said tentatively under the sign of all the officials.


    Li Shimin smiled, handed the urgent report to all officials and said, "you Tuoba tribe has been settled, and Tuoba''s red resignation will arrive in the capital in a few days."


    "Seriously?"


    Fang Xuanling competed with other officials to read the urgent newspaper.


    "National interests first!"


    "Anyone who dares to wave a knife at Datang is an enemy!"


    "It''s your Majesty''s business to forgive Tuoba chici. Our task is to send Tuoba chici to your majesty!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the eight hundred mile rush, the impassioned words immediately aroused the pride of the whole court.


    "National interest!"


    The more Li Shimin tasted this sentence, the more meaningful he felt. I''m afraid these four words can be used as the standard of the Tang Dynasty in the future.


    The generals were also proud and full of passion. When the East Turks waved their swords to our Tang Dynasty, the East Turks perished and Jieli Khan was captured into the capital. The moving whirlwind dance is still remembered.


    Tuyuhun dared to wave a knife at Datang. Voyun''s head is on the way to Datang, not to mention your small Tuoba tribe. How dare you dare to provoke Datang.


    The eyes of civil servants were even brighter. In this way, the Tuoba tribe that dared to challenge the authority of the Tang Dynasty was eliminated, and the credibility of the Tang Dynasty was maintained.


    Many civil servants have been thinking about how to reward Tuoba chici with various illusory titles when Tuoba chici was sent to Chang''an City, just as they treated Jieli Khan in those years.


    As for the matter of confiscating the armor of the various departments of the party mentioned in the 800 Li expedited, it did not cause any waves in the imperial court at all.


    "Gao Zhengsheng sued General Li..." Sun Wuji asked tentatively. Since Li Jing had broken the Tuoba tribe, Gao Zhengsheng''s appeal to Li Jing for fame and reputation and his intention to rebel naturally failed.


    "It''s a load of nonsense. General Li is loyal to his country and doesn''t hesitate to go on an expedition thousands of miles for the sake of state affairs. With such hard work and credit, how can anyone stigmatize him? Come and send envoys to Lanzhou to immediately remove Gao Zhengsheng and Li daoyan on the spot and take them back to Chang''an City for joint trial!" Li Shimin shouted.

 Chapter 578

    "Tell your majesty that Tuyuhun has been settled now. I don''t know how to place Tuyuhun!" Fang Xuanling bowed and said.


    He is the first of all officials. Now that the war is over, it''s time to consider how to deal with Tuyuhun.


    As soon as Fang Xuanling''s voice fell, all officials couldn''t help but cheer up. This is the important thing to discuss today. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing. Tuyuhun covers thousands of miles, equivalent to 10% of the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Although it is mostly a barren desert, there are rare grasslands. If it can be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, it would be a great achievement.


    Su Lingnong stood out and said, "Your Majesty, in the view of the old minister, why should we discuss this matter? We have the power of the Tang Dynasty to calm Tuyuhun. How can we feed the tiger again? Why not follow the previous dynasty and reset the four counties of Qinghai in Tuyuhun''s old land and bring them under the rule of the Tang Dynasty!"


    For farmers, the most unforgivable land, can have more land, can have the foundation for the development and growth of farmers, and there are many cattle and sheep in Qinghai, and the key to solving night blindness lies in meat.


    "Your Majesty, never!" retorted censor Quan Wanji. "Yang Guang is tyrannical. How can we follow his plan? In addition, although Yang Guang sets up counties in Tuyuhun, it is in vain. If the government orders do not come out and wait for the city, he can''t control the land of Qinghai at all."


    Li Shimin could not help frowning. The rule of Tuyuhun in the Sui Dynasty was very weak, otherwise he would not be easily recaptured by Fuyun, who was like a lost dog.


    Su Lingnong shook his head and retorted, "at one time and another, Tuyuhun is remote and inconvenient to travel. Now our Datang brick road is unblocked. It takes only three days to travel day and night from Chang''an city to Lanzhou. Once there is a change in Qinghai, the imperial court can be relieved in the shortest time."


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up. The best distance for the imperial court to control the place is to arrive in seven days. Even in the farthest Lingnan Road, some news has been sent back to Chang''an City for half a month. In this way, Tuyuhun is not too far from Chang''an city.


    Although the terrain of Qinghai is vast, it''s a big deal to build another brick road. With countless cattle and sheep from Qinghai imported into Datang, this business is very cost-effective.


    "Our graduation is to attack Tuyuhun and invade the border. If we destroy his country and occupy his land, I''m afraid it will frighten the countries in the western regions and is not conducive to the stability of the border of the Tang Dynasty."


    Many literary ministers spoke one after another, talking about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and then went to the border to stabilize and oppose the direct occupation of Tuyuhun.


    Many courtiers were also shaken by it and spoke out against the establishment of prefectures and counties. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help worrying about three points.


    "What do you think of Aiqing!" Li Shimin turned his eyes to Wei Zheng in the front row. They are the real pillars of the Tang Dynasty. Once Li Shimin has something to decide, he will ask several more.


    "Tell your majesty, if we directly reset the four counties in Qinghai, it will arouse the dissatisfaction of the local tribes, which is not conducive to the rule of the Tang Dynasty. Why don''t your majesty let Murong Shun restore the country and help the army. Murong Shun doesn''t have a foundation in Tuyuhun, so we can only rely on the Tang Dynasty. First, I can guarantee the interests of the Tang Dynasty, and second, I can support Tuyuhun and defend the western border." Wei Zheng said proudly.


    This is a plan he has been thinking about for a long time. It is a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.


    "Yes, we can follow the example of Turks." Xiao Ying nodded in agreement.


    For such things, Xiao Yu is the most persuasive. He is a descendant of the former Liang Dynasty and the younger brother of empress Xiao. After Nanliang was destroyed by Li Jing, he was not held accountable, but was reused by Li Shimin as a prime minister.


    "Turkic example!"


    The courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty could not help nodding slightly. When the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks, it was only because they sent troops to make a surprise attack, broke the Turks'' tooth tent, captured Jieli Khan, but did not occupy an inch of Turks'' land. This solved the border problem in the northern Xinjiang of the Tang Dynasty for ten years, won the respect of the northwest, and was honored as Tian Khan by the northwest.


    For a while, most of the ministers tended to Wei Zheng''s plan.


    "I object!"


    A minister who surprised everyone came out.


    "Grandson Wuji!"


    When man Chaodun was stunned, he didn''t expect that he would oppose it. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help but look sideways. Changsun Wuji ranked first among the meritorious heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. No one can surpass him in terms of its weight.


    The eldest sun Wuji said proudly, "tell your majesty, we didn''t occupy an inch of Turkic grassland at that time, because Turkic strength was not damaged at the beginning, and Xue yantuo and tiele''s nine surnames were eyeing, which was a last resort. Now we have a long-distance expedition in the Tang Dynasty for thousands of miles and return with our heads. There is no resistance in Qinghai. If we don''t take it, we will be punished by heaven."


    "Not bad!" Qin Qiong nodded.


    Many people in the military also agreed one after another. Even Dai Zhou nodded one after another. Datang almost emptied the Treasury for the western expedition. How can he return empty handed? If he doesn''t get some money for the Treasury, I''m afraid Datang will go bankrupt.


    "Moreover, now Wei Chen is managing the Yellow River in Guanlong, but he found that Guanlong has a large population and the land has become increasingly barren. Only continuous reclamation of wasteland can make a living. Now the imperial court prohibits reclamation and restores vegetation. People''s livelihood is cut off, and they can only move out." Sun Wuji paused and said loudly.


    "The land of Qinghai is the only way for the people in Longyou."


    When sun Wuji finished, the ministers could not help but be silent. All the reasons on their lips were eclipsed in the imperial court''s Centennial plan to govern the Yellow River.


    The harm of the Yellow River has a long history. Although there is a flood discharge method donated by the MOH family, everyone knows that this is a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution. It is July now, when there is the most rain in the north of Datang. In more than a month, the Yellow River has been in danger more than ten times. The dike of Qucun village has been dug for flood discharge, but there is too much rain this year, The water level of the Yellow River remains high.


    The harm of the Yellow River hangs over the head of the Tang Dynasty. The court has long reached an agreement to govern the Yellow River. However, there are many difficulties in Guanlong. The most fundamental reason is that there are many people and less land in Guanlong.


    Now, the Tang Dynasty has finally obtained the land of Qinghai. How can the Guanlong aristocratic family, which controls the land of Guanlong, be let go easily? With the land of Qinghai, the Guanlong aristocratic family has found the direction of expansion, and the people in Longyou have found a way to live. Third, the process of promoting and controlling the Yellow River by the imperial court must be greatly accelerated.


    Most of the people in the land of Guanlong are half farming and half grazing. Grazing in the land of Qinghai can certainly take root quickly. Moreover, the land of Guanlong is very close to the land of Qinghai, and the resistance of the migrating people is very small.


    Li Shimin secretly calculated that the balance in his heart had slowly tended to swallow Tuyuhun.


    Some officials of Shandong aristocratic family couldn''t help but worry. If Li Shimin adopted the opinion of changsun Wuji, their plan to clamp down on Guanlong aristocratic family might have failed. Many officials'' eyes turned sharply. Kong Yingda was about to come forward to refute when another bodyguard rushed into the Tai Chi hall.


    "Report! Hurry up! Tell your majesty that the Yellow River burst its banks and the land of Shandong flooded seven counties!" the guard trembled.


    "The Yellow River flood?"


    Suddenly the whole dynasty was surprised.


    "Isn''t there a flood discharge area?" Kong Yingda trembled and exclaimed,


    The land of Shandong is the stronghold of Shandong aristocratic family. The land of Shandong is flooded. The blow to Shandong aristocratic family can be said to be a disaster.


    Fang Xuanling said bitterly, "tell your majesty, five days ago, the land of Luoyang reported that there was a rainstorm, the water level of the Yellow River soared, and the dike of Qucun village burst a few days ago to discharge the flood, but who would have thought that the land of Luoyang escaped, but the land of Shandong was not spared."


    At this moment, chaotang''s determination to govern the Yellow River has never been as firm as today.


    However, the most important step to harness the Yellow River is to reduce the land reclamation in Guanlong and reduce the population pressure in Guanlong, so as to restore the vegetation.


    At this moment, everyone thought of a place, the land of Qinghai.

 Chapter 579

    Shandong Dashui!


    With the passage of time, more and more news about the flood in Shandong spread to Chang''an city.


    Flooding seven counties!


    Millions of acres of good farmland were destroyed, the people were displaced, their homes were destroyed, and the losses were extremely heavy.


    "I have allocated money and grain to build the Yellow River levee for years, and there are Qucun flood discharge. Why can the Yellow River levee in Shandong break?" Li Shimin roared at the shocking loss in the hall.


    "I beg your Majesty''s pardon for my dereliction of duty!" Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, said with a gray face.


    The construction of the Yellow River levee is the responsibility of the Ministry of work. Now the Yellow River levee in Shandong has little warning in advance, and the military and people have no time to prevent it, so that it will lead to great disaster. Naturally, the Ministry of work can''t shirk its responsibility.


    Li Shimin glared at Duan Lun with hatred and said in a cold voice: "Duan Lun, the Minister of the Ministry of work, was derelict and dismissed on the spot! All the people in charge of the river embankment in Shandong were handed over to the third division for trial."


    "Thank you, my Lord, for not killing me!"


    Duan Lun''s body trembled, his figure suddenly became short, and then he staggered back,


    Many officials can''t help sighing. They know that Duan Lun will completely fade out of the court this time, and the Ministry of work will reshuffle the cards. After all, the loss this time is too great. Naturally, people need to bear the responsibility.


    When Duan Lun left, Fang Xuanling bowed and said, "Your Majesty, stop your anger. For today''s plan, it''s better to relieve the disaster first. Millions of people in the seven counties of Shandong are displaced. If you don''t relieve the disaster in time, it will change later!"


    Li Shimin is also dignified. He has experienced the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Of course, the flood has caused heavy losses to the Tang Dynasty. If refugees are used by intentional people, the consequences will be no less than the destruction of these floods.


    "If the order goes down, the surrounding counties will try their best to rescue the affected people, Dai Aiqing! Immediately prepare food, pay and money to rescue the affected people immediately." Li Shimin said to Dai Zhou.


    Dai Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, now the Treasury of Chang''an city is empty and can''t take out so much money."


    The amount of money and food needed by the people of the seven counties for disaster relief is astronomical every day. For a moment, the imperial court can''t take so much money at all.


    "How could there be no money? The weather was good in the Tang Dynasty last year, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. How could they spend all their money so quickly." Kong Yingda said anxiously. The land of Shandong is the headquarters of Confucianism. One day later, the land of Shandong will suffer.


    Dai Zhou said with a wry smile: "last year, I really had a good harvest in the Tang Dynasty. However, the imperial court built nearly 2000 Li brick road and prepared Tuyuhun for the western expedition. It has already consumed almost. Although there is still some surplus, I''m afraid it can be enough for the pensions and rewards of the expedition soldiers."


    As soon as Dai Zhou''s voice fell, many courtiers immediately became silent and officially had a good harvest last year. Only then did the Tang Dynasty have the strength to attack Tuyuhun. However, an expedition almost emptied the Tang Dynasty''s treasury.


    Kong Yingda said sadly, "can we just watch the people in Shandong suffer?"


    Wei Zheng said, "of course not. The people can carry the boat or overturn the boat. The people live and work in peace and contentment is also my Tang Dynasty. How can your majesty bear to let the people of Shandong suffer."


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "yes, send orders, immediately mobilize food and go to the affected areas of Shandong. Make sure that no one can starve."


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Kong Yingda said slowly. As long as people are hungry, there is still hope for everything else.


    "Tell your majesty that there will be a plague after a major disaster. If doctors do not prepare in advance, they can cure the affected people and prevent the disease." Fang Xuanling bowed.


    Sun Wuji agreed: "yes, the Red Cross Society can also call on volunteers to donate money and materials. It will certainly be able to help many affected people."


    The Red Cross Society is nominally under the control of empress changsun. The Red Cross Society assists the disaster stricken areas, which is conducive to the reputation of empress changsun and the natural support of empress changsun Wuji.


    The courtiers also nodded one after another. Now the court has no money to use and can only rely on folk forces. Once the Red Cross takes action, it will greatly alleviate the pressure of the court.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "but!"


    "During the western expedition, the pensions for the soldiers who died in the war will be paid, and the rewards for the meritorious soldiers will not be paid for the time being. The land of Shandong will be appropriated immediately to pay for the people." Li Shimin thought for a while and said that for today''s plan, we can only tear down the east wall and make up the west wall.


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    The ministers said in unison. However, everyone knows that even with these measures, we can only maintain the existing situation, and the huge post disaster reconstruction work is the big head, which will be an astronomical figure.


    "In fact, I have a huge fortune in Datang''s hands." Dai Zhou said with some hesitation.


    "There''s still a huge fortune?" all the officials looked at Dai Zhou suddenly.


    Dai Zhou clenched his teeth and said, "yes, the western expedition has traveled thousands of miles and captured countless cattle, sheep and miscellaneous livestock. If these cattle and sheep can be turned into money, the financial crisis of Datang will be solved."


    People''s eyes lit up. These cattle and sheep were captured by Datang and naturally controlled by Datang. However, once these cattle and sheep nominally belong to Tuyuhun tribe. Once Datang disposes of these cattle and sheep, it means that Datang has only one choice, that is to turn Tuyuhun into four counties in Qinghai, otherwise it will only bury the root of disaster. "


    Dai Zhou didn''t want to intervene in Tuyuhun''s disposal, but the financial pressure of the Ministry of civil affairs was too great. Dai Zhou could only think about these cattle and sheep.


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "those cattle and sheep are really valuable, but they are far away in Qinghai. How can they help Shandong?"


    One is the westernmost and the other is in the west, thousands of miles away. It is difficult to work with huge losses alone. Besides, those refugees can''t eat meat alone!


    "If we sell these cattle and sheep for money, won''t all the problems be solved?" Kong Yingda said impatiently.


    The ministers looked at Kong Yingda helplessly. What the old sour Confucian said was better than singing. It was dozens or hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, but hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. Where could such a large market be digested.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help being angry. She knew she had said the wrong thing.


    Dai Zhou said thoughtfully, "although Lord Kong said that there are many difficulties, it is not impossible. Maybe one person can do it."


    "Who is it?" Kong Yingda hurriedly asked.


    "The world talks about the means to make money. I only serve one person." Dai Zhou looked around the ministers for a week and said word by word.


    "Mojiazi!"


    The ministers'' eyes suddenly brightened. The world wants to talk about the means of making money. Who cares about Mohist children? Mohist village has become the first village in the world in a short time. I''m afraid Merton must be the best person to say that someone can solve the financial crisis of Datang. Besides, Merton is right in Qinghai at the moment.


    Kong Yingda was embarrassed for a while and fought openly and secretly between Confucianism and Mohism. However, he didn''t expect that it was Merton who saved the place of Shandong, the base of Confucianism. However, if he delayed one day, the form would be critical. Kong Yingda was wise to put aside his views.

 Chapter 580

    Lanzhou City, the army gathered, barracks everywhere.


    In the camp of the firearm prison, a wail came continuously.


    "Hiss! Be careful!" Merton said painfully, lying on the bed.


    Mo Wuyi looked helplessly at the dead skin in his hand and said patiently, "young master, you''d better be patient. The sunburn on your back has been delayed for too long. If you don''t disinfect it, if it''s inflamed, I''m afraid the consequences will be unimaginable."


    Merton crossed the desert and made an expedition to Tulun river. Although the war was fruitful, his back was badly sunburned. The red Yaya was very frightening.


    Mo Wu picked up alcohol and gently wiped it on Merton''s wound. The sharp pain almost didn''t make Merton jump.


    "Young master, now that the war is over, when can I return to Chang''an City?" Mo Wu asked, distracting Merton to alleviate his pain.


    After Li Jing brought the army back to Lanzhou City, he had repaired it for several days, but he never ordered to return to Chang''an city.


    Morton grinned and took a breath, explaining: "it may take some time to go back to Chang''an city. Now the war has just ended, and the mood of the whole army is still unstable. If you march back to Korea rashly, I''m afraid there will be riots. If you want to go back, I''m afraid the generals will return first and the soldiers will follow."


    Postwar stress syndrome is not unique to future generations. In ancient times, although there was no such word, the wisdom of the ancients had long had the method of prevention and treatment. Otherwise, once the war soldiers returned home and hurt people, I''m afraid it would be very harmful.


    The army has been on an expedition for more than two months. It can be said that the officers and men of the whole army are highly nervous every day. If they rashly return to the DPRK without repair, once there are problems, the consequences will be extremely serious.


    "I see!"


    Mo Wu said on his mouth. His men didn''t stop and quickly wrapped up Merton''s wound.


    "Don''t see water these days. Change the medicine in three days and you will recover in seven days." Mo Wu said.


    Merton nodded weakly and lay there as a dead dog to enjoy this rare leisure time.


    However, Merton didn''t enjoy his leisure time for too long. With the sound of drums, Merton stood up, regardless of the pain.


    "Point the drum!"


    Merton simply put on his armor, jumped on his horse and went straight to the Imperial Palace, Li Jing''s temporary residence.


    As soon as the first drum beat fell, Merton stepped into the Imperial Palace and found that all the generals had gathered.


    "What''s the matter?"


    Merton came up to Su dingfang and asked in a low voice, now that the war is over, how can the point general drum ring suddenly!


    Su dingfang whispered in the East, "people have come from Chang''an city!"


    Merton suddenly realized that with the victory of the army returning, the court would naturally send ministers to comfort the army.


    Not long after, the Imperial Envoys who came to comfort the army arrived. Unexpectedly, it was Gao Shilian, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, who was reported by Merton to the Ministry of civil affairs.


    "See imperial envoy!"


    "Please get up, you are the great heroes of the western expedition. I am ashamed of it!" Gao Shilian said kindly.


    Li Jing stepped forward and said in a loud voice, "Lord Gao has come all the way. I''m tired. Thank you."


    Gao Shilian turned his eyes and saw Merton behind the generals. He couldn''t help smiling and said, "if I had gone thousands of miles before, half of my life would have been lost. However, with the four-wheel carriage and brick road made of ink sacrifice wine, I lay comfortably in the car for three days and arrived in Lanzhou. It''s really convenient for me!"


    I have to say that Gao Shilian would not dare to take the job of the imperial envoy if it were not for the convenience of the brick road, otherwise the long journey would kill him. Li Jing also agreed with him. The convenience of the brick road was incisively and vividly demonstrated in this western expedition, and it can be said that he was the greatest hero of the western expedition.


    Merton was embarrassed and said with a smile, "Lord Gao is flattered!"


    "Let''s put aside private affairs for the time being. Let''s do business first!" Gao Shilian said solemnly.


    Immediately, the generals looked solemn.


    "Your Majesty has ordered that Tuyuhun can be eliminated in one fell swoop in this war. It all depends on the merit of the officers and men. Everyone will reward them when they return to Chang''an city." Gao Shilian solemnly said.


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    There was a smile on the faces of the generals.


    As soon as Li Jing waved his hand, one of his own soldiers quickly ran out of the prefect''s residence, and there were bursts of cheers in the barracks of the whole city.


    "Second, when the imperial envoy came here, there was another thing, that is, to examine the case of the army lieutenant general leading Li Jing''s plot against him!" as soon as Gao Shilian''s voice fell, everyone was in an uproar. Many people immediately focused on Li Jing and Li daoyan, who was waiting for punishment.


    Li Jing sighed in his heart and was immediately discouraged. After each war, memorials about his rebellion always appeared. This time, he was very careful and acted in full accordance with the military order, but he didn''t expect it to be the same this time.


    However, Li daoyan looks innocent. It is reasonable to say that Li Jing''s punishment on Li daoyan is extremely serious. I''m afraid he is the most likely to sue Li Jing. However, although he resented Li Jing for punishing him so severely, for the sake of Li Jing''s sending troops to recover justice for his 3000 soldiers, he also admitted and sued Li Jing for plotting rebellion. He really didn''t think about it.


    "Where is Gao Zhengsheng?" Gao Shilian said loudly.


    "Gao Zhensheng?" the generals could not help but be shocked. It is reasonable to say that Li Jing''s punishment of him is not too much compared with Li daoyan. It is not difficult to keep his official career with Gao Zhensheng''s military achievements. No one thought Gao Zhensheng should take such an extreme road.


    "The end is coming!" Gao Zhengsheng gnawed his teeth and stepped out. In his opinion, Li Jing''s actions had already been crazy to test the bottom line of the imperial court. Since he had torn his face, there was nothing to worry about.


    Even Li Jing looked at Gao Zhengsheng in surprise and couldn''t help shaking her head and closing her eyes.


    Gao Shilian suddenly shouted: "Gao Zhensheng, the governor of Lizhou, disobeyed the military order and took advantage of border diseases. General Li punished him according to the military order, but he harbored a grudge and falsely accused General Li of rebellion. It is really lawless. His majesty has an order. Gao Zhensheng disobeyed the military order and falsely accused meritorious officials. He should be beheaded according to the law. For the sake of his many years of military merit, he will be exempted from death and exiled to the border pass. There will be no amnesty!"


    "Ah!" when Gao Zhensheng heard the speech, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He didn''t expect it to end like this.


    "It''s impossible! Your majesty can''t treat me like this!" Gao Zhengsheng said crazily. He is an old man of King Qin''s residence of Li Shimin. He can be said to be Li Shimin''s lineage. He thought it was Li Jing who escaped. Li Shimin thought he would be fine for his past love, but he didn''t expect to end up like this.


    Gao Shilian waved his big hand and immediately two hundred riding soldiers came forward to control Gao Zhensheng and took him down.


    "General Li is frightened." Gao Shilian arched his hand at Li Jing.


    Li Jing shook her head and said, "I''ve been loyal to my country all my life. I have a clear conscience. Thank you for your insight and cleaning up Li Jing''s grievances."


    The generals also went forward one after another and said, "we have seen General Li''s behavior with our own eyes. Naturally, we don''t believe in the general''s rebellion."


    Even Li daoyan said with a red neck: "although general Li punished me, if I believe that General Li wants to rebel, I don''t believe it."


    When Li daoyan finished, Gao Shilian''s eyes fell on Li daoyan. Li daoyan immediately trembled. Gao Zhensheng''s crime was great, and his mistake was not small.


    Sure enough, Gao Shilian said coldly: "Li daoyan disobeyed the military order and privately provoked border trouble, resulting in the innocent lives of 3000 soldiers and soldiers, and was exiled to the border according to the law."


    "Thank you for your kindness!" Li daoyan said in his heart.


    This punishment is also extremely serious for him, but it is much better than Gao Zengsheng. At least there is no charge of beheading, no amnesty, and there is no chance to reopen it in the future.


    Seeing that Li daoyan was escorted by two hundred cavalry, the generals couldn''t help looking at Li Jing. This time, Li Shimin''s support for Li Jing was not great. Two generals who violated military orders were all punished. In particular, Gao Zhensheng was an old minister of the Qin palace, and Li daoyan was a descendant of the imperial clan, and they were all merciless.


    "Your Majesty''s love, the old minister''s shame, can''t return." Li Jing bowed to Chang''an city.


    Gao Shilian said, "right and wrong, your majesty is naturally simple in the heart of the emperor. We just need to be loyal to our duties."


    "In fact, I have another more important thing to do today." Gao Shilian turned his face and fixed his eyes firmly on Merton at the end.


    "Me!" Merton came out with a blank face.


    "That''s right! I''m afraid you don''t know. Now there is a flood in Shandong. Seven counties are flooded and millions of people are displaced. However, for the sake of the western expedition, the National Treasury is empty. I''m afraid it''s not the Mo sacrifice wine that can solve the imperial court''s anxiety." Gao Shilian solemnly said.


    "Shandong flood!"


    "Millions of people are displaced!"


    "Sell hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After understanding the depth of the flood disaster, the generals couldn''t help but be in an uproar and turned their eyes to Merton. In the eyes of the public, the MOH family has two skills, which everyone envies. One is a loser and the other is to make money.


    The Mohist School became a black sheep, but it was easy for everyone to make money.


    "The boy is young and used to mischief. I''m afraid he can''t bear this heavy responsibility." Merton quickly waved his hand. That''s hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. He has learned the relationship between supply and demand. Once these cattle and sheep enter Datang, they will immediately destroy Datang meat price, causing a series of chain reactions, no less than an economic crisis.


    Merton used to be a Mojia village supporting 5000 people, but now he has to bear the livelihood of millions of people. Even he can''t help but flinch.


    Gao Shilian looked at Merton. He had expected that Merton would have this reaction. At that moment, he said faintly, "Your Majesty said that as long as you solve this matter, the 6000 war horses will be written off."


    "Ah!"


    Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect that Li Shimin knew so quickly that he planned to lose 6000 war horses in order to pursue Fu Yun.


    Cheng Yaojin could not help laughing. Sure enough, the black pot of the black sheep was carried by the boy Merton. Other generals also showed playful smiles and looked like watching a good play.


    "What 6000 war horses!" Su dingfang wondered. His status was low and he didn''t know it at all.


    When he learned from the neckline of other generals that Merton did not hesitate to lose 6000 war horses, he couldn''t help but take a breath and open his eyes to re-examine the appearance of mojiazi. As a soldier, the most precious thing is war horses, and the value of 6000 war horses is an astronomical figure, and Merton did not hesitate to lose his family.


    Morton smiled awkwardly, quickly raised his head, turned his words, and said with an impassioned look: "although the boy is young, he is valued by his majesty. Even if there are thousands of difficulties and obstacles, he should share his worries for his majesty."


    Gao Shilian nodded with satisfaction and said, "don''t worry, the court won''t embarrass you. If you have any requirements, just mention them."


    "The boy wants power!" Merton''s eyes brightened.


    "But!" Gao Shilian nodded without hesitation, "I personally sit in Longyou and leave 100000 troops to continue to be stationed in Lanzhou. As long as I don''t provoke civil unrest, I will fully support it.


    The generals were shocked that with the support of Gao Shilian and 100000 troops, Merton became the most powerful man in the northwest in a very short time.


    "So, it''s not impossible to succeed!" Merton''s eyes twinkled and his heart was eager to try.


    Young frivolous, who doesn''t want to control the world.

 Chapter 581

    Gao Shilian is coming, so Li Jing naturally has to go!


    Before leaving, Li Jing visited the camp for the last time. The generals behind him followed him. Li Jing''s hair must be white. Even if she is tall and straight, she is particularly old.


    All the generals understand that Li Jing, the famous military God of the Tang Dynasty, may really say goodbye to the military camp this time. First, Li Jing is old, and second, Li Jing has contributed too much. After killing Turks and Tuyuhun in succession, there is no reward.


    "General!"


    Soldiers saluted one after another, looked at the generals in front of them with reverence, gave the highest respect to Li Jing in front of them, and fought with Li Jing. They were lucky. The two successive wars of annihilation made countless generals and soldiers who followed Li Jing outstanding.


    Li Jing nodded in return. After the inspection tour, she took a nostalgic look at the barracks and stepped out of the barracks.


    He spent his whole life in the army. The military camp is the place he knows most. He spent more time in the military camp than at home. Now he wants to say goodbye to the most familiar military camp. He still misses it like a veteran.


    "Everybody stay!"


    In front of the straight brick road in the east of Lanzhou, Li Jing said goodbye to the people.


    When he returned to Chang''an City this time, in order to avoid suspicion, he could be said to be light and simple, with only some personal guards.


    "I''m sorry to see you off soon!" the generals arched their hands.


    At that moment, Li Jing stepped on the four wheeled carriage. With a loud cry from the guard, the four wheeled carriage immediately ran towards Chang''an city.


    "Hoo!" Li Jing and his party were only five miles ahead. Suddenly, the guard stopped the carriage.


    "What happened ahead?" Li Jing asked.


    Pro Wei Lang said in a voice, "tell the general that Mo sacrificial wine has come to see you off."


    Li Jing couldn''t help but realize that he didn''t see Merton in the seeing off crowd just now. He thought Merton was busy worrying about Shandong''s flood of money, but he didn''t expect Merton to wait here in advance.


    Li Jing stretched out her head and saw Merton with a dusty face. It was obvious that she had just come from outside.


    "The flood disaster in Shandong is serious, so you''re welcome to offer sacrifices to Mo liquor!" Li Jing said.


    "The general wins the Hui Dynasty, and the boy can''t give it away." Merton dismounted and came forward.


    Immediately get out of the carriage and wave your hand. The surrounding Pro Witton scattered around, leaving them some private space.


    "Come on, if you have any ghost ideas, just say it!" Li Jing said angrily to Merton when he saw that there was no one around. He didn''t believe that Merton happened to catch up with him here.


    Merton said positively, "I don''t know what the general''s plan is to return to Korea."


    Li Jing couldn''t help being silent for a long time and sighed: "I''m old and I''m a soldier all my life. It''s time to keep my health behind closed doors."


    In front of Merton, Li Jing did not hide his intention of seclusion, and in fact, he was preparing to do so.


    "The reason why I didn''t see you off with the generals today is that my identity today is not the identity of firearm supervisor, but the representative of Mohism." Merton said solemnly.


    "Mohism!" Li Jing''s eyes suddenly showed a trace of light.


    "Yes, you came here today to represent Mohism and strategists!" Merton said calmly.


    "Mohism and strategists cooperate!" Li Jing''s eyes flashed. He naturally knew that Mohism was making progress at the moment, striving to carry forward Mohism and start a hundred cooperation.


    Farmers, doctors, Taoists and Legalists have all cooperated with Mohism. Except that Legalists are still short in time and their achievements are not obvious, the other three have made proud achievements and earth shaking changes. The broad prospect of the cooperation between Mohism and strategists not only makes Li Jing very excited.


    "How to cooperate?" Li Jing''s eyes flashed.


    Merton smiled and said, "the Mohists once cooperated with Master Li, master Han and doctors in Quchi square. They are ready to imitate the Imperial College to establish master''s college, medical college and law school. It would be perfect if they could cooperate with strategists to build a military college.


    "Military academy?" Li Jing suddenly said.


    Merton nodded and said, "the boy once followed the general on an expedition and found that the general was very strict in running the army, but did the general ever wonder why there were so many memorials falsely accusing the general of rebellion in the court."


    Li Jing was immediately silent, which would be the most painful thorn in his heart.


    "This is not a high achiever! Nor is it a aimless goal, but the general does have the opportunity and possibility of rebellion! Any small action of the general will be put in front of the magnifying glass by the courtiers, infinitely magnified, but making all kinds of conjectures." Merton said bluntly.


    Li Jing immediately stared at Merton. Merton immediately felt a terrible momentum coming to his face.


    However, Merton stood up without fear and looked directly into Li Jing''s eyes.


    After a long time, Li Jing slowly took back her momentum. She sighed helplessly and looked bleak!


    "Although the general never thought so, when he went deep into the barracks, he found that most of the officers and men in the army were rough men, and there were many school captains and generals who were illiterate. These officers and men were brave and invincible when fighting. No one denied it, but they didn''t know the truth. They were very easy to be encouraged. Even if they used a little means, they would certainly be able to encourage most of them to follow them." Merton spoke out one by one of the shortcomings of the general he did not shy away from.


    Li Jing nodded silently. What Merton said is indeed a major disadvantage in the army. This is where he is oppressed. If he wants to rebel, he has many opportunities, but he always abides by his duty, but he is taboo by the imperial court.


    "This is a malpractice in the army for thousands of years. Does Mo Jijiu think that building a military academy can solve it?" Li Jing asked.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, I don''t know if the general has paid attention to the firearm prison. I don''t know if he has found the difference between the firearm prison and other 16 guards."


    Li Jing couldn''t help but flash over the firearm. The officers and soldiers had strict discipline and completely didn''t have the rough characteristics of the military Han, which impressed people at a glance.


    Merton explained: "although firearm supervisors were born in Baiqi, once they enter the firearm prison, they have to learn fire prevention measures and learn to calculate the route of the catapult. The most basic requirement is that everyone should read."


    "Both literature and martial arts!" Li Jing thought of a word.


    "Yes, this is the rudiment of the future officers and men expected by the boy. They can recruit and be good at war. They are both civil and military. Imagine that these officers and men are well-informed. Even if some generals want to rebel, they won''t be easily encouraged." Merton analyzed.


    Li Jing nodded. As the saying goes, there are many people who kill dogs. Similarly, these people are the most likely to be encouraged. They don''t know one big character and don''t understand government decrees. Conspirators like such people most.


    "In addition, we can also cultivate and instill loyalty and patriotism among the students of these military academies and enhance the loyalty of these soldiers to the Tang Dynasty. Once the academies of these military academies graduate, they will be sent to the army as low-level officers. Everywhere they go, the imperial court''s control over the military will be strengthened." Merton added.


    Li Jing breathed suddenly. Imagine that if all the military officers were students of the military academy, even he had no chance to rebel. In this way, the suspicion of the imperial court naturally disappeared.


    "Since you have such a good idea, why don''t you report it to the court yourself? I''m sure the court can adopt it. Why do you want to find me? I''m just a veteran who is about to return home." although Li Jing is moved, he still refuses.


    Merton said with a smile: "because of the general''s military book, only the general''s military book can teach more excellent generals!"


    If Li Jing really retired wholeheartedly, how can he continue to write military books? That''s why Merton was confident in persuading Li Jing to unite the Mohist and military schools.


    "The book of war!" Li Jing was angry when he heard Yandun. His book of war was about to be completed, but it was almost destroyed and rewritten by Merton''s repeated blows.


    Merton laughed and said, "General Li, don''t be angry. Boy, it took a lot of gold to get some good things from Hu Shang. I hope I can make amends like general!"


    Merton said, handing over several thick books.


    "Is this?" Li Jing took it in doubt.


    "This is the record of the classic battle of the extremely western country. It took a lot of effort to get it from the western regions. Its scale and wonderful degree may be slightly inferior to that of China, but it is also unique." Merton said positively.


    Li Jing''s heart moved. Stones from other mountains can attack jade. If his military book can absorb the experience of foreign strategists, it will be more perfect.


    "You just believe me. I''m willing to unite with the Mohist school."


    "Third, an important reason why General Li has been repeatedly framed is that there is only one military God Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty. If General Li Jing can teach his military skills, he can become a qualified general Go and create countless military gods for the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid that if anyone wants to rebel, the difficulty will increase countless times, and our Tang Dynasty will be invincible. "Merton described a magnificent military future for Li Jing.


    Even if Li Jing is not surprised by his honor or disgrace, he can''t help yearning for it at the moment.


    "Finally, I don''t know whether general Li is aware of a trend. There are more and more restrictions on military generals in all dynasties, and civil servants want to check and balance military generals." Merton lowered his voice and said in a low voice.


    "Hiss!"


    Li Jing couldn''t help looking at Merton in horror. He had always buried this idea in his heart and never announced it to his mouth. At the moment, Merton said it directly.


    "Mo family, be careful that evil comes out of your mouth." Li Jing said.


    Merton sighed, "General Li is the first soldier in the world. If you can''t even say that to General Li, the boy can only sigh that there are no people in the same way in the world."


    Li Jing could not help but be silent.


    "There are many rough men in the army. They don''t know writing, government orders and rude behavior are natural defects. However, who says that civil servants can only read poetry and books, and military generals can also be full of literary talent." Merton said proudly. If the military officer is full of poetry and books, the pride of the civil servant must disappear.


    Li Jing said with a wry smile, "if you want to confuse people, maybe it''s your Mo family."


    "All the facts that the boy said are bewitching people. To change the situation and status of the strategist, the only way is to establish a military academy." Merton argued. He knew that Li Jing must be excited. This move would benefit the strategist without harm.


    "OK, I will cooperate with Mohist school on behalf of strategists. This time, I will carefully consider the military academy and write to the imperial court at the right time, hoping not to make me regret." Li Jing took a deep breath.


    "Surely we won''t let the strategists down," Merton assured with a sigh of relief.


    With the addition of strategists, the scale of Quchi square college must be further expanded, and the 100 colleges envisaged by Merton have begun to take shape.


    If the other hundred schools grow by one point, the influence of Confucianism will be relatively weakened by one point, and the pressure on Mohism will be reduced by one point. Moreover, with the rise of hundreds of schools, the rise of Mohism will be less prominent.


    This is the yangmou of Mohism.

 Chapter 582

    After Li Jing returned to Chang''an City, groups of soldiers began to withdraw to Chang''an City in an orderly manner, while a large number of soldiers were still stationed in Lanzhou city to continue to deter Tuyuhun and Dangxiang departments, and secondly to support Merton.


    However, for several consecutive days, Merton still appeared and disappeared, and there was no human shadow at all. Gao Shilian had to come to block Merton himself.


    "Now the disaster in Shandong, the victims are crying for food. I don''t know what good plan Mo can have to sacrifice wine to exchange money for the imperial court to sell cattle and sheep as soon as possible." Gao Shilian went straight to the theme.


    Merton rubbed his red eyes. He hardly closed his eyes these days. He has been investigating the situation of various tribes in Tuyuhun.


    "Lord Gao, if we want to control Qinghai for a long time, we can''t kill the chicken to get the egg and sell all the cattle and sheep, otherwise we can only have another war in Datang." Merton said solemnly.


    Gao Shilian nodded and said, "in terms of ink sacrifice, it''s better for me to take how much booty the Tang Dynasty takes."


    Merton thought a little and said, "at most 30%, and we should announce this year''s tax exemption, otherwise it will certainly arouse the popular uprising of all tribes in Tuyuhun."


    If Datang wants to do one hammer business, it can naturally be levied more than 50%. However, Datang cannot give up the land of Qinghai, the horse herding land that Datang finally got.


    "But 30% of the miscellaneous animals, I''m afraid it''s difficult to solve the flood in Shandong!" Gao Shilian frowned. Although he also agreed with Merton, the flood in Shandong is right in front of him. His task here is to raise enough disaster relief funds for the land of Shandong. If the people in Shandong suffer because of a moment of weakness, it would be very bad.


    Merton laughed and said, "don''t worry, Lord Gao. In my opinion, there are many valuable things in Qinghai. These cattle and sheep are not the only ones. This is Lord Mo!"


    "Ink offering wine!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When Merton entered the prefect''s residence, famous businessmen came forward one after another and greeted one by one. Some made friends, and some handed in their own masters'' famous posts.


    Merton said hello one by one and accepted the famous posts.


    When Merton came to the throne, all the businessmen were silent, with only hot eyes staring at Merton.


    "Thank you for your support. The purpose of these cattle and sheep must be clear to everyone. It is to raise disaster relief funds for the affected people in Shandong." Merton said in a low tone,


    All the businessmen could not help frowning. They came for profit, but Merton told them about the disaster, which was inconsistent with their plan!


    Looking at the response of the merchants, Merton had expected it. He couldn''t help saying: "so the purpose of the imperial court is to raise money from these cattle and sheep as soon as possible, with small profits and high sales. Naturally, the price can''t be much higher?"


    Merton offered a price for cattle, horses and sheep respectively, and the businessmen in the audience immediately smiled. According to the price, they really made a lot of profits.


    "So this sale is based on quantity, with at least 100 heads per batch." Merton made a condition.


    "A hundred heads!" a group of businessmen frowned. This number can be a lot. If they can''t sell in time, they may easily fall into their own hands. However, if they can sell all of them, they will naturally earn more.


    The pros and cons are naturally clear to everyone. Many big businessmen are immediately moved. Many small businessmen also begin to quietly unite and prepare to jointly eat a batch of cattle and sheep.


    All morning, the first wave of sales was finally counted.


    "Five hundred horses, ten thousand cattle and eight thousand sheep." Gao Shilian looked at the statistical results in front of him and was happy and worried.


    Fortunately, so many livestock were sold all at once. This large sum of money can greatly alleviate the financial pressure of the imperial court. The worry is that the most cattle were sold this time, only 8000 sheep were sold, and the highest price horse was only 500.


    Merton nodded and said, "the demand for cattle is endless in our Tang Dynasty, and most of the cattle in Qinghai are strong cattle, which are naturally sought after by people."


    Cattle can cultivate land. One cow is enough to cover three adult labor forces. It is a symbol of a rich family. Moreover, the price of beef remains high in Datang. As long as the cattle are driven back to the Central Plains, it is naturally a business that can make no loss.


    Gao Shilian frowned and said, "but what if the cattle are sold out and only the horses and sheep are left in the hands of the imperial court?"


    Merton smiled, looked in the direction of Chang''an City, showed a trace of confidence and said, "since we have a problem here, we need the cooperation of our imperial court."

 Chapter 583

    "The cooperation of the imperial court?" Gao Shilian was stunned and looked at Merton.


    Merton said naturally, "that''s natural. Does the court want to take money instead of doing things?"


    Gao Shilian smiled bitterly and said, "it''s not enough to show sincerity for the court to let me come. How do you want the court to cooperate?"


    Now, as long as we can raise enough money for disaster relief, as long as it''s not too outrageous, I''m afraid the poor and crazy court will agree.


    "I don''t know how the imperial court is going to relieve the disaster?" Merton suddenly asked Gao Shilian mysteriously.


    "Disaster relief?" Gao Shilian looked at Merton suspiciously and asked, "but put grain and porridge to appease the people."


    "That''s all?" Merton looked disappointed.


    Gao Shilian said unhappily, "that''s all. It''s the same in all dynasties. How can I be an exception in the Tang Dynasty? But what''s your plan? I can tell you frankly. I will naturally invite the court."


    Merton straightened his chest and said proudly, "Zi Mozi said: the hungry can''t eat, the cold can''t dress, and the laborer can''t rest. The three are also great disasters for the people! Your Majesty''s grain and porridge is benevolent and righteous, which can solve the people''s problems, but it''s like ordinary people giving alms to beggars. Although the people can live, they lose their dignity, and can only enjoy their success like beggars."


    "Dignity?" Gao Shilian looked at each other, people are starving, still thinking about dignity?


    Merton said with a righteous face, "if a boy suffers from disaster, the boy would rather work hard to support himself than accept handouts from others."


    "It''s easy for one person to support himself, but there are so many affected people. How can they do so much work?" Gao Shilian shook his head.


    "That''s why the imperial court needs to come forward and find a livelihood for the people affected by the disaster in the Tang Dynasty. This is work for relief." Merton said positively.


    "Work for relief!" Gao Shilian''s eyes lit up when he thought a little.


    The affected people are destitute. Even the imperial court can only provide food and porridge for disaster relief. How can they pay money? If work is used for relief, the country can be built on a large scale, and the people also have a way to live. Naturally, there will be no trouble.


    "But in a hurry, how can the imperial court have so much work to do?" Gao Shilian said with some regret. The biggest project of the imperial court is to control the Yellow River. Unfortunately, it is a flood season, which is not the time at all.


    Merton said proudly, "boy, I once mentioned an idea, that is, the ten roads in the Tang Dynasty are connected by brick roads and paths. Now it''s just an opportunity."


    "Building brick roads?" Gao Shilian bowed his head to think of the cableway.


    "Yes, this is the brick road map with three horizontal and five vertical directions that I came up with according to the mountain and river geography of the Tang Dynasty. Please give me some advice." Merton respectfully handed a map of the Tang Dynasty to Gao Shilian.


    Building brick roads is the most labor-intensive industry. Digging and making bricks requires manpower, transportation requires manpower, and building roads and paving bricks requires manpower. If so, millions of victims may not be enough?


    "Three horizontal and five vertical?"


    Gao Shilian took a look and saw the route map of cities in series on the map. The three horizontal and five vertical brick road map almost connected all the strategic places of the Tang Dynasty. From his eyes, he could see that once the map was completed, the imperial court''s control over the whole Tang Dynasty immediately soared to a higher level.


    Gao Shilian looked at Merton in amazement and said: "if your boy is 20 years older, I will recommend you as the Minister of work."


    The strategic vision of the three horizontal and five vertical road map alone is enough to shock the whole court.


    "You didn''t come up with the three horizontal and five vertical brick road map to sell horses!" Gao Shilian suddenly thought of his previous words and looked at Merton strangely.


    Merton nodded proudly and said, "it''s natural. As long as the brick road is built, the horses will be hot and the demand will increase greatly. Only when we sell these livestock can the imperial court have more money to work for relief."


    Gao Shilian could not help shaking his head and laughing. Who could have thought that selling horses could be linked with the national strategy. Such an incredible thing appeared in front of him.


    "Boy, the purpose of coming here today is to write to the imperial court jointly with Lord Gao. Now Qinghai cattle are very popular. Don''t worry at all. As long as you can sell horses smoothly, there will be only sheep left." Merton said bluntly.


    In this regard, Gao Shilian has no reason to refuse. He can not only benefit the victims, but also benefit the affairs of the Tang Dynasty. He readily stamped his own seal.


    Three days later,


    When the first batch of money and the three horizontal and five vertical maps were placed in front of the Manchu courtiers, all courtiers could not help but marvel at it. It was not a straw bag to enter the courthouse. Naturally, they could see the amazing part of the three horizontal and five vertical maps, which was much more advanced than the ten brick roads of the Tang Dynasty simply put forward by Merton.


    "Ink sacrificial wine is worthy of being a genius of heaven. Once the three horizontal and five vertical brick road map is completed, we will have no worries in the Tang Dynasty." an official of the Ministry of work said with praise on his face. At this time, Duan Lun has been dismissed and the Ministry of work has carried out a round of cleaning. However, the risk of building the Yellow River embankment is not small, but everyone is happy about building the brick road. How can the Ministry of work not cater to it.


    All the officials nodded one after another. In particular, Merton''s statement of work for relief brightened the eyes of all the ministers. It is also disaster relief. One is like a bottomless pit, and the other has rich returns. Naturally, people can see the advantages and disadvantages.


    "It''s also a way to get the best of both worlds, but in this way, the consumption of the imperial court will be greater." Dai Zhou frowned.


    Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "the convenience of brick road is obvious to all. Its biggest disadvantage is the high cost. Now there is work for relief, which is the best time to build brick road. Now there is ink sacrifice wine to raise money in Lanzhou. Just wait until September and wait for the autumn tax collection. Naturally, everything will improve."


    Although the flood in Shandong is a disaster, it is not the best time to build brick roads.


    Soon, the Imperial Court reached an agreement and agreed to build brick roads with work as relief. It directly declared that the Tang Dynasty would build brick roads with three horizontal and five vertical directions. In fact, the real start was the east section of the Longhai line and the North-South brick road in the center of Zhengzhou, the end of the Longhai line. First, a cross shaped brick road network was built in the Tang Dynasty.


    At the same time, Confucian and Mohist journals immediately cooperated with the imperial court to publicize the strategic significance and broad prospects of the three horizontal and five vertical brick road map on a large scale. Many businessmen rushed to Lanzhou city once again.


    Brick road is indeed convenient. It is built on the basis of carriage. Whoever has a horse can seize the opportunity on the brick road in the future. Now a large number of Qinghai good horses gather in Lanzhou with good quality and low price. If they miss this opportunity, I''m afraid everyone will regret it for life.


    "The ink offering wine is really clever!" Gao Shilian watched the horses outside Lanzhou disappear with the naked eye. A cart of money was pulled into the prefect''s house, and his old face was full of chrysanthemums.


    With this money, I believe it will be enough for the imperial court to use for some time.


    "It all depends on the cooperation of the imperial court?" Merton was also relieved. Now Marco is more popular than cattle. In addition to the rush purchase of horses outside Lanzhou, there are many merchants who want to book the next batch of horses, but Merton can only reluctantly refuse.


    "Next, we have to deal with the sheep." Merton had a headache when he thought of the sheep all over the mountains.

 Chapter 584

    Compared with horses and cattle, although the price of sheep is much lower, it can not stand a large amount.


    Outside Lanzhou, as cattle and horses are gradually sold, the number of businessmen around sheep is greatly reduced. Even if there are several businessmen to buy sheep, the amount of achievements is pitiful.


    "Shopkeeper Li, do you want some sheep? These are the first-class lambs produced in Qinghai prairie. The meat is delicious and the price is cheap." Merton saw a rich businessman coming and greeted him warmly.


    Boss Li said bitterly: "the villain''s family background is thin. He has started a lot of cattle and horses before. Where is there more money? He has more heart than strength."


    "Lv Dongjia!..." Merton welcomed the second rich merchant.


    The emaciated LV family quickly shook his head and said, "villains don''t dare to start at this time. I''m afraid mohou doesn''t know! The price of mutton in Chang''an City has decreased by 30%, and other meat prices have decreased by as much as 10%


    Morton was unmoved and said, "the price of these sheep in the imperial court is cheap. Even if it drops by 30%, the LV family may also make a profit!"


    With a big hand, Lu Dongjia took out an old calculation chip. His fingers flew wildly and snapped and said, "with labor, the freight is indeed a little profitable, but if the price of mutton falls again, I''m afraid it will hit his hand. With the forage for raising sheep, I''m afraid it''s possible to lose everything!"


    "Er! How can you make the Lvdong family lose money?" Merton waved to let the Lvdong family go.


    After a while, the LV family came up to Merton and whispered, "if mohou is willing to lower the price, it''s not that you can''t buy some more?"


    "Get out!"


    Merton roared that his target price was already low. If he did it again, I''m afraid the imperial historian in the imperial court would drown him.


    Lu Dongjia immediately ran away, but his eyes couldn''t be separated from the sheep all over the mountains. Obviously, he still couldn''t forget it.


    "I heard the news about ink offering wine, but these profiteers joined forces in an attempt to force the court to reduce the price!" Gao Shilian came angrily and said gnashing his teeth.


    Different people have different names in front of Merton. Those businessmen call Merton the Marquis of Mo and show their dignity by their title. Officials often call Merton as a wine sacrifice and show their status by their official position. Of course, behind their backs, they will gnash their teeth and say, "the son of Mo family!"


    "I knew that!" Merton''s face was calm without the slightest anger.


    "This * * merchant is simply making the country rich!" Gao Shilian said angrily.


    Merton shook his head again and again and said, "Lord Gao''s words are bad. As far as I know, these businessmen did not donate less money to the Red Cross in the Shandong flood. However, business is business. Selling at a high price and selling at a low price is the essence of business. The money is in their pockets. No matter what they do, we can''t blame them. Waiting for a price is a common means for businessmen. I''m afraid if they are young, they will do the same."


    Gao Shilian was stunned and thought a little. Then he calmed down slowly and said, "this is my gaffe. The people in Shandong are affected. I''m too anxious."


    Merton looked at the sheep all over the mountains and thought a little: "if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be flexible. Since the road of selling sheep is impassable, we can change a way to raise sheep!"


    "Raising sheep!" Gao Shilian couldn''t help staring at Merton.


    "Ink offering wine, the court wants money, not sheep?" Gao Shilian reminded. No matter how many sheep you raise, you can''t get money. If you delay the imperial court''s disaster relief, they can''t get good.


    Merton said confidently, "don''t worry, Lord Gao. What the boy said about raising sheep is not the court''s own sheep, but sold to people who want to raise sheep."


    "Sheep keeper?" Gao Shilian felt that he could not keep up with Merton''s thinking.


    "I wonder if Lord Gao can understand the imperial court''s plan to govern the Yellow River," Merton reminded.


    "This is natural!" Gao Shilian nodded.


    Merton said confidently, "the whole land of Guanlong will certainly be limited in the future. Agriculture is limited. Naturally, we should vigorously promote animal husbandry. This is where the opportunity lies."


    "What Mo Jijiu said was to sell to the people in Guanlong!" Gao Shilian thought.


    "Good!" said Merton.


    Gao Shilian frowned and said, "as far as I know, there are many people and less land, and there are not a few people raising sheep. I''m afraid many of the sheep sold before are bought by the people in Guanlong. Even if the people in Guanlong want to buy, they don''t have so much grassland to raise."


    The imperial court has great determination to govern the Yellow River. Many people in Guanlong have invested in aquaculture. Kerao is so hard to digest so many sheep.


    "There are many people in the land of Guanlong, but there is not much grassland, but we have it here!" Merton said, pointing to the direction of the land of Qinghai.


    "Qinghai prairie? You mean to let the people of Guanlong go to Qinghai prairie to graze. It''s impossible. It''s hard to leave their hometown. How can the people be willing to leave their hometown and go to Qinghai where they are not familiar with their land." Gao Shilian said inconceivably,


    Merton nodded and said, "of course, it''s not the land of Qinghai, but Shanzhou!"


    Shanzhou is Xining in later generations. Its geographical location is very important. It is located in the Huangshui River Valley. It has sufficient water source, fertile soil and low terrain, which is suitable for the survival of Han people. More importantly, it is very close to Lanzhou. With the convenience of brick road, it is only three or five days away from Guanlong.


    "Shanzhou!" Gao Shilian thought thoughtfully. Although Shanzhou had good geographical conditions before, due to the continuous war with Tuyuhun, the people''s lives were withered and a large amount of land was desolate. Now the dangerous conditions before Datang defeated Tuyuhun naturally disappeared, and Shanzhou''s advantages immediately appeared.


    "This time, we not only sell sheep, but also give land! One sheep gives ten mu of grassland! Buy more and give more. The whole Shanzhou is free to choose where there is no owner." Merton waved hard.


    "Buy sheep and send land?" Gao Shilian couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. This move may not be effective for the people in other places, but it is a great gospel for the people in Shaodi in Guanlong.


    The sheep sold by the imperial court this time are cheap, and ten mu of grassland is attached, which is a great discount.


    "Moreover, the grassland outside Lanzhou city is almost eaten up by these sheep. The boy is ready to invite the imperial court to send 30000 cavalry troops to Shanzhou, which can not only solve the problem of war horse food and grass, but also reassure the Guanlong children who have left their hometown." Merton said.


    Gao Shilian could not help nodding. Merton was not on a whim, but had considered all aspects. If according to Merton, it really has great operability.


    When the memorials of Merton and Gao Shilian were sent to Chang''an city again, this time, the chaotang had passed almost without objection. It was the chaotang''s policy to immigrate to the real border and govern the Yellow River. Merton''s move was indeed in line with the trend.


    "Buy a sheep and send ten mu of grassland to Shanzhou."


    "30000 cavalry stationed in Shanzhou."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When Merton''s method of selling sheep was reported by Ink magazine, it can be said that it immediately caused a sensation in Guanlong, and many people immediately talked about it.


    "One sheep has ten mu of grassland. If you buy a hundred sheep, you can get a thousand mu of grassland."


    Everyone knows that the value of a sheep can''t compare with ten acres of grassland in any case. This transaction can be said to be very cost-effective.


    "One thousand mu of grassland is enough to feed 500 sheep!" many Guanlong children broke their fingers and couldn''t help feeling excited. Mutton is very popular in the Tang Dynasty, and the price is very high. The value of 500 sheep is in Guanlong, which is a family.


    A hundred sheep can develop into about 500 sheep in three or five years, and become a family in three or five years, which is a great temptation for anyone.


    Shanzhou is also the boundary of the Tang Dynasty. With 30000 elite troops stationed in Shanzhou, Tuyuhun has been destroyed. Naturally, there is no problem in security.


    "Parents are here, don''t travel far! Shanzhou is too far!" many people hesitate and don''t want to leave their hometown.


    "It''s only one day''s distance from Shanzhou to Lanzhou. From Lanzhou to Chang''an City, you can reach Chang''an City in three days. What''s five days?" more people are eager to try. With a smooth brick road, it seems that the distance is close at once. The original seemingly distant distance now seems no longer out of reach.


    "It is said that there are many grasslands along Huangshui in Shanzhou, which are very fertile. Once reclaimed, they are first-class irrigated fields. They come first, get first, and regret later." at the same time, a grapevine spread wildly in Guanlong land. Almost overnight, it blew through the whole Guanlong land like a whirlwind.


    "Water irrigates the field!"


    Almost everyone is attracted by watered fields. If there is water, there is land. Ink magazine clearly analyzes the land of Shanzhou. This place is just a small Guanzhong Plain, which can naturally cultivate a lot of fertile land


    More importantly, Mo Village has adopted the most common means in future generations to visit for free. As long as the people who are interested can take the carriage of the imperial court to visit Shanzhou, the fare is free, and they can take care of their own food and accommodation.


    Su dingfang''s previous grain transportation system has not been dissolved. Merton naturally used it impolitely. Many people in Guanlong are excited. In this way, they see each other for the first time and start to take action and prepare to go for an investigation..


    Not only the ordinary people, but also the Guanlong aristocratic family, began to meet and discuss one after another. They know much more than the ordinary people. Naturally, they know that Huangshui River Valley is indeed a rare treasure land, which will certainly become a fertile land in time.


    "This may be an opportunity for my Guanlong family."


    Many Guanlong aristocratic families are excited one after another. It''s time to get in touch with Mohism.

 Chapter 585

    "Hahaha, the ink sacrifice is indeed a clever plan!" Gao Shilian warmly invited Merton in front of the prefect''s house and said excitedly. How can he not be excited about the news that a large number of visiting people have arrived in Lanzhou? A whole hundred carriages and carriages are transported day and night, but they are still busy.


    Merton also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Shanzhou is indeed a good place. As long as you operate with your heart, it must be a rich place over time. I believe they will make a right choice."


    Gao Shilian solemnly nodded and said, "that''s why some Guanlong family friends found me here and wanted to ask mohou for convenience."


    As soon as Gao Shilian''s voice fell, he saw a middle-aged man in his forties enter the living room.


    "Guanlong aristocratic family?" Merton''s eyes shrunk. Changsun Wuji is the leader of Guanlong aristocratic family, and Gao Shilian is changsun Wuji''s uncle. Naturally, he has this inextricable connection with Guanlong aristocratic family.


    "This is the right way of yuan family''s two room yuan of Guanlong aristocratic family. This is the famous Mo Hou, Mo sacrifice wine!" Gao Shilian said.


    "I''ve heard a lot about the name of Mo Hou!" Yuan Zhengdao said with a warm face.


    "The yuan family is a prominent and noble family in the Tang Dynasty. Some yuan family took the lead in settling in Huangshui. I believe the people of Guanlong will gather to follow suit." Merton said with a laugh.


    "Yuanmou really wants to settle in Huangshui, but I saw the planning map of mohou, but it''s a little wrong. I don''t know if mohou can be convenient." Yuanzheng road arched his hand.


    Merton looked at Yuan Zheng with a smile: "I don''t know how convenient yuan family wants!"


    As long as it was a normal transaction, Merton would not interfere. Gao Shilian took the initiative to send a message and the second room of the yuan family came in person. Obviously, the Guanlong family could not take the road of normal transaction.


    "The yuan family wants both sides of the Huangshui River! As long as Marquis Mo agrees, there is no need for Marquis Mo to worry about the next things. The yuan family will only buy all the remaining sheep. In this way, marquis Mo will have the best of both worlds to successfully complete the task of the imperial court!" Yuan Zhengdao said proudly.


    "They want the most fertile water to irrigate the fields?" Merton suddenly changed his face.


    In the planning of Merton, every one thousand acres of grassland on the Huangshui River is rectangular, and only fifty acres depend on Huangshui.


    Merton said coldly, "now I can sell all my sheep without relying on yuan family. Why should I accept such harsh conditions?"


    "Because in this way, Mo Hou will get the friendship of Guanlong aristocratic family. You should know how a yuan family can eat so many cattle and sheep." Yuan Zhengdao said proudly. Behind him stood the Guanlong family, the most powerful political group in the Tang Dynasty. He didn''t believe that Merton had the courage to refuse.


    However, Merton said with a sneer: "as far as I know, the Guanlong aristocratic family is asking for my Mohist family. If the Guanlong aristocratic family is like your excellency, there is no need for the Mohist family and the Guanlong aristocratic family to cooperate any more."


    "You dare to underestimate me!" Yuan Zhengdao said angrily. He represented the whole Guanlong family at the moment. He couldn''t believe that Merton was so contemptuous of him.


    Merton smiled and looked at Yuan Zhengdao with an undeniable look. The Guanlong aristocratic family has more people and less land, and urgently needs the food technology of the Mohist family. He doesn''t believe that the whole Guanlong aristocratic family will abandon the Guanzhong base camp because of the barren Huangshui land. This time, some collateral families must come to Huangshui land, but they have too much appetite.


    "If the yuan family wants to buy sheep, Mo is welcome, but follow the rules, otherwise please come back!" Merton said, bowing to Gao Shilian and leaving straight away.


    "Huang Mao''s child is so arrogant. Uncle Gao, you heard what Mozi said just now. You have to decide for my nephew!" Yuan Zhengdao said with shame and anger.


    Gao Shilian gave yuan Zhengdao a cold look and said, "if you can solve the financial crisis of the imperial court, you can also be so arrogant!"


    "Er!" Yuan Zheng was speechless like a duck pinched by the neck.


    Gao Shilian was also in a dilemma. Naturally, he knew that this opportunity was rare. Even if he knew that the conditions of Guan Long family were very harsh, he had the courage to try, but Morton flatly refused.


    "In that case, you and others will buy more. With my face, you will find a land with abundant water and grass. The land of Huangshui is indeed a treasure land, and it will be rewarded several times in the future." Gao Shilian advised.


    Yuan Zhengdao looked disgusted and said, "it''s just 50 mu of irrigated land. The rest can only herd sheep. Our Guanlong family is a big family. How can we herd horses and sheep like the barbarians!"


    When Yuan Zhengdao left angrily, Gao Shilian couldn''t help roaring: "the shaft is not enough for planning."


    He was bent on planning for the Guanlong aristocratic family, and even did not hesitate to pull down the cheek to speak for them. However, the children of these aristocratic families were picky and refused to settle down to work hard.


    "Guanlong aristocratic family has no successors!" Gao Shilian sighed.


    Although the Guanlong aristocratic family left one after another, it did not affect Merton''s plan. The Guanlong aristocratic family did not see these barren places, but the farmers on the poverty line regarded them as treasures. In addition to the people in Guanlong, the people in other areas also heard the news after they got the information of Ink magazine.


    People are not afraid of hardship and long journey. What they fear most is that there is no opportunity, and Merton just provides them with this opportunity.


    With a large number of people coming to Lanzhou and then Shanzhou by carriage, these people like this place at first sight because of the suitable climate, wide rivers, abundant water, towering jungles on both sides of the river and abundant grass in the distance.


    A dark old farmer looked down and grabbed a handful of soil on the grass. He was intoxicated and took a deep breath: "this is the best soil. The output in the first quarter must be no less than five hundreds."


    Many people in the same dress around nodded. This time they really made money. They have never planted such good land in their whole life. In their view, even the land far away from the river is likely to be transformed into good land. It just takes more effort.


    "Drive!"


    A large number of Tang cavalry passed by by by coincidence, which immediately calmed many people. Everyone was glad that they had finally found a place to settle down.


    With the grassland planning, a large number of sheep * * came into the hands of the people and grazed on both sides of Huangshui. The cattle and sheep herds all over the mountains outside Lanzhou finally disappeared.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief and finally disposed of all the livestock.


    Gao Shilian on one side was also excited and said, "great, the disaster relief funds of the imperial court have finally raised 30%


    "Plop!"


    Merton stumbled and fell to the ground.

 Chapter 586

    "Thirty percent!"


    Merton roared. According to his idea, how can so much money be enough! How come it''s only 30% in Gao Shilian''s mouth.


    Gao Shilian felt empty in his heart, but his face did not change at all. He said, "if it was just disaster relief, it would be seven or eight, but you and I jointly wrote to the court to ask for work as relief. So, the cost of disaster relief immediately increased several times."


    Merton couldn''t help himself. Unexpectedly, he lifted a stone and hit himself in the foot. In order to sell horses, he directly increased the difficulty of his task several times.


    "The imperial court has no choice. The people in the seven counties of Shandong have destroyed their homes, no food and clothing, and are displaced..." Gao Shilian said with a heavy face:


    Merton waved his hand, covered his face and said sadly and angrily, "needless to say, I understand!"


    Merton took a deep breath and left proudly. He thought he would go back to Chang''an city soon, but I''m afraid he can''t go back in a short time.


    So I''m afraid his next plan will be greatly changed.


    Watching Merton rush out of the imperial palace again, Gao Shilian couldn''t help but exclaim that he was just young!


    "Don''t blame those black hearted guys in the imperial court. If you want to blame them, blame your boy for doing so well." Gao Shilian sighed. Merton is very different from the descendants of Guanlong family.


    Moreover, Merton''s work is really beautiful. Since it is conducive to the livelihood of the people, he turns his hand over the clouds and waves his hand over the rain. A large amount of money has been sent to Chang''an City, which is beyond the expectation of the whole court. How can the poor and afraid court let Merton go of this ready-made money tree.


    Even Li Shimin sent a message to force Merton''s bottom line.


    "Thirty percent, and seventy percent!"


    Merton is walking on the streets of Lanzhou city. He doesn''t show any chips. Now all the horses, cattle and sheep have been sold out. Where can he prepare so much money.


    "Those who come stop!" as tie an shouted, many Mohist children gathered around Merton.


    Now that the war is over, Xue Rengui has long led the igniter supervisor to leave Lanzhou and return to Chang''an city. The guards around Merton are naturally replaced by Mohist children.


    When Merton looked intently, it turned out that it was shopkeeper Li and LV Dongjia who wanted to lower the price. They were flattering and smiling at Tie''an, and waved to Merton awkwardly.


    "Let them come!" Merton motioned, and tiean let them go.


    "Why are you two still here?" Merton asked angrily. The livestock have been sold out. It''s reasonable to say that they should go. Why are they still here.


    Shopkeeper Li and LV Dongjia looked at each other, smiled awkwardly and said, "I don''t know if mohou can still get livestock. I want to order another batch."


    Merton couldn''t help turning his eyes and said, "it''s good that so many livestock were sold out. Instead, you came to the door."


    Shopkeeper Li smiled and said, "at that time, I couldn''t open the capital turnover. I really didn''t have any money left!"


    Lu Dongjia nodded and laughed.


    Merton said leisurely, "now your capital turnover is open? Don''t you make less!"


    Shopkeeper Li couldn''t help looking happy and said, "that''s not the blessing of Lord Tuomo. I''ll have this chance to make a fortune."


    "I heard that the price of mutton in Chang''an City has risen again?" Merton sneered at Lu Dongjia.


    Lu Dongjia suddenly looked bitter. They looked at the large number of sheep in Merton''s hands and united to lower the price. Unfortunately, Merton found a way to buy sheep and land to attract a large number of Guanlong people to come to Shanzhou for gold. As a result, the sheep were sold out.


    With the disappearance of sheep, the meat price of Datang rose again. Many sheep traders regretted that the price given by Merton was the lowest in the whole industry. They reluctantly missed the opportunity to make a fortune, so they had to have the cheek to come back to Merton.


    "The villains teach others how to do things, which makes mohou laugh." Lu Dongjia said with a bitter smile.


    In the business circles of Chang''an City, Merton led the Mojia village to build such a big name in a short time. How can it be a false name? LV Dongjia is just a small sheep merchant. After seeing Merton''s means, LV Dongjia can only be ashamed of himself.


    "We know that Lord mohou has a big pattern. A little small business naturally doesn''t want to trouble him. This time, not only do I wait for sheep merchants to come, but also cattle merchants and horse merchants mean the same."


    "Mohou''s means are too clever. Once the three horizontal and five vertical plans are drawn, those foot traders are almost crazy, and how many horses are sold out." shopkeeper Li smacked his tongue. Foot traders refer to those merchants who pull goods. The repair of brick roads is too important for these foot traders, and the demand for cattle and horses immediately surged.


    Merton was interested, nodded and said, "you wait for them to collect and report the number. If the quantity is large, Ben hou can''t do it again."


    "That''s the price!" Lu Dongjia asked carefully.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "the price is the same as before! But Ben Hou works for the imperial court. If you dare to play tricks again, don''t blame Ben Hou for being rude."


    "No, no!" Lu Dongjia and shopkeeper Li looked happy and shook their heads.


    Driven by interests, the efficiency of businessmen made everyone ashamed. In less than three days, a large pile of thick orders were placed in front of Merton and Gao Shilian.


    "So much?" Gao Shilian couldn''t help breathing.


    He really underestimated the power of businessmen. All businessmen knew that this opportunity was rare. When they conquered the East Turks, Datang almost didn''t get much benefits. However, Datang made a lot of profits in the battle of Tuyuhun. Coupled with the flood in Shandong, this gave businessmen a chance to make money. If they missed this opportunity, they might regret for life, So one by one, they give orders as much as possible to strive for livestock sold at a low price. Even if they can''t sell them temporarily, they can make a lot of money in the future.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton also breathed heavily. With so many orders, except for the small demand for sheep, the number of cattle and horses is almost the same as that of livestock before.


    "This is a big business! We can''t accept the ink sacrifice!" Gao Shilian asked, but he had already been excited. Now the house and price have been settled. As long as we can get cattle and sheep, we can get the money immediately.


    Merton said without hesitation, "take it, of course!"


    Now the imperial court is in need of money. How can he let such a big business come to the door.


    "But Tuyuhun has turned in 30% of the spoils. If it is collected again, I''m afraid it will damage the prestige of the imperial court!" Gao Shilian frowned.


    Merton said with a confident smile: "the reputation of the imperial court is first. Naturally, we can''t collect Tuyuhun''s cattle and sheep, but the boy is confident that the tribes in Qinghai can hand over their cattle and sheep by themselves."


    Gao Shilian looked at Merton in surprise and asked, "is there another good plan for ink sacrifice?"


    Merton laughed and said, "before, we sold sheep to pasture. This time, we can do the opposite and sell pasture to earn cattle and sheep."


    "Sell pasture? Where do we have pasture?" Gao Shilian suddenly felt a fog.


    Merton pointed to the direction of Qinghai and said in a loud voice, "in the battle of Tuyuhun, many tribes in Qinghai declined, leaving a large number of excellent pastures. If Datang doesn''t intervene, these excellent pastures will only be occupied by powerful tribes on the grassland. In that case, it''s better to give play to the waste heat in the hands of Datang."


    "You mean to let Datang take charge of the ownership of these pastures!" Gao Shilian said in his heart.


    "Good!" Merton nodded heavily.

 Chapter 587

    Tianzhu three tribes!


    Once the Tianzhu three tribes were the richest tribes in Tuyuhun and occupied the most fertile pastures in Qinghai. Even in the event of a snowstorm, the Tianzhu three tribes didn''t have to worry about starvation and cold. Coupled with the status of Tianzhu king, the status of the whole Tianzhu three tribes was more detached.


    However, after the first World War in Tuyuhun, the three tribes of Tianzhu suffered heavy losses from the heavy attack of the Tang army. In addition, the king of Tianzhu was killed by murongshun, and the status of the three tribes of Tianzhu plunged overnight.


    Today, the status of the three tribes of Tianzhu is in jeopardy. Many tribes with less strength of Tuyuhun are eyeing the three tribes of Tianzhu and constantly swallowing the ranch of the king of Tianzhu.


    In the felt tent in the center of the three tribes in Tianzhu, a confrontation was imminent.


    "Dawa clan leader, I don''t know what you''re thinking about?" a tall Tuyuhun leader urn said. He was the leader of the most powerful mengtu tribe around Tianzhu tribe.


    In the middle of the felt tent, an old man with white hair sat in the main seat. This man was the latest leader of the three tribes of Tianzhu. After the death of King Tianzhu, he supported the three tribes of Tianzhu.


    The old clan chief Dawa opened his muddy eyes, stared at the man opposite and said, "Montu, when the three tribes of Tianzhu were strong, you didn''t dare to talk to me like that."


    In the past, mengtu tribe was an affiliated tribe of Tianzhu tribe. In this war, mengtu tribe suffered little damage. Now it even focuses on the weak Tianzhu King tribe.


    "Don''t toast, old man. Don''t eat and punish. You Tianzhu three tribes acted perversely and offended the Tang Dynasty. If it weren''t for Tianzhu king, how could I Tuyuhun fall to this point." mengtu leader sneered.


    The old clan chief Dawa was unmoved and said, "don''t talk nonsense. Don''t you mengtu tribe just like the cattle, sheep and pastures of Tianzhu three tribes? It depends on whether your mengtu tribe has swallowed them!"


    Among the surrounding tribes, Montu tribe occupied the most pastures of Tianzhu three tribes. If the war had not just ended and all tribes were recuperating, I''m afraid the Montu tribe would have robbed it long ago.


    The leader of Montu said with a ferocious smile, "so what? Now there are only old and weak women and children left in your Tianzhu three tribes, and there are few warriors left. With this strength, how can you defend this pasture?"


    The old clan leader of Dawa suddenly fell into silence. The survival of the fittest on the grassland was even more cruel. What leader Montu said was the truth. I''m afraid he really couldn''t keep so much wealth and pasture by relying on the current strength of his Tianzhu tribe.


    "Are you not afraid to be punished by the Khan if you are so forced?" the old clan leader Dawa said with sharp eyes. He is not unwilling to let the accumulation of Tianzhu three tribes give in to each other for many years.


    Montu was like hearing a joke. He laughed loudly and said, "Murong Shun betrayed Fuyun Khan. Tuyuhun didn''t obey him. How can he punish my Montu tribe? Besides, the king of Tianzhu was not very friendly to shun Khan in those years! Are you sure Shun Khan will help you?"


    Dawa''s old clan leader was immediately discouraged, his eyes were dim, and Montu was right. At the moment, Tianzhu three tribes were helpless and in a desperate situation.


    "I''ll give you ten more days to think about it. If your Tianzhu three tribes are still stubborn, don''t blame me for being rude." Montu directly issued an ultimatum and took people away.


    As soon as Montu left, the whole Tianzhu three tribes immediately fried the pot and gathered in front of Dawa patriarch.


    "Clan leader, we fought with the Montu tribe!" Basang Li, the only remaining Warrior Leader of the Tianzhu three tribes, said.


    The old clan chief Dawa shook his head solemnly.


    "Clan leader, why don''t we herd far away? As long as there are these cattle and sheep, our Tianzhu three tribes will be able to make a comeback." some people also suggested to hide temporarily and give up the pastures of Tianzhu three tribes.


    "Even if we give up the pasture, the Montu tribe won''t surpass us. I''m afraid anyone will be moved by so many cattle and sheep. Moreover, without the best pasture, we Tianzhu three tribes talk about how to make a comeback." the old clan leader Dawa shook his head.


    Suddenly everyone was silent, and soon the whole tribe was crying.


    "Almighty God of grassland! Is heaven going to kill our Tianzhu tribe?" the Dawa nationality cried out.


    Suddenly, there was a riot outside the tribe. A Tuyuhun Knight rode directly into the tent of Dawa patriarch. He looked frightened and said, "the patriarch is bad. The Tang cavalry is coming."


    Suddenly everyone was silent, and the scene of the Tang iron cavalry wreaking havoc on the whole Tianzhu three tribes emerged in their hearts. That was the most terrible nightmare of the Tianzhu three tribes.


    When Merton took tens of thousands of Tang cavalry to the old patriarch of dadava.


    The old clan leader Dawa was cold and trembled in half cooked Chinese: "did the Tang Dynasty come to destroy my Tianzhu three tribes?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "the first time I came to Tianzhu three tribes, it brought war, but this time I brought peace."


    "Peace!"


    Old Dawa raised his head in disbelief and looked at the young and excessive Tang general in front of him. Old Dawa had no doubt about Merton''s identity. When Merton collected 30% as booty, Merton followed him personally, and the two had seen each other. Naturally, I know that the youth in front of me is the real voice in Qinghai.


    "Yes, it''s peace. From then on, let the Tianzhu three tribes never worry about the coming of war." Merton immediately turned into a messenger of justice and said proudly.


    "Buy a ranch!" the old clan leader of Dawa couldn''t help looking at each other and couldn''t believe looking at the young general in front of him! He could not imagine that the young general in front of him proposed to buy their own pasture.


    "Not bad!" Morton said naturally. "If the old patriarch is not satisfied, he can choose other good pastures to buy. From the boy''s point of view, Mandu mountain and hulunchuan are all good places."


    "No, we just want our own pasture," the old clan chief Dawa said firmly.


    "That''s OK. As long as Tianzhu tribe buys this pasture, it will be recognized by the Tang Dynasty. It will be owned by your tribe from generation to generation, even if there is only one person left in your tribe, no one can take it away!" Merton said proudly.


    "No one can take it away!" the head of Dawa couldn''t help brightening his eyes.


    Nowadays, what the Tianzhu three tribes lack most is protection. Who can be more powerful than the protection of the Tang army in Tuyuhun? If it can be recognized by the Tang Dynasty, the Tianzhu three tribes will have no fear of extinction that day.


    "I don''t know how to buy and sell this ranch." the Dawa patriarch asked carefully.


    "One sheep is 100 mu, one cow is 1000 mu, and one horse is 2000 mu." Merton set the White Wolf empty handed and impolitely reduced the price ten times.


    The best place for a ranch is naturally the source of water. The Dawa elder brother calculated that he had left the cattle and sheep necessary for the tribe.


    Merton immediately thoughtfully said: "it is said that Tuyuhun is short of food. The general can decide to transport a large amount of food from Datang for the people of Tianzhu tribe. A sheep can exchange three times the weight of food."


    As soon as Dawa''s eyes brighten, a sheep can exchange three times the weight of food, which means that a sheep can eat three times more time than before. Life on the grassland is difficult, and most herdsmen are barely satisfied. If Datang really opens up grain and exchanges it in this way, the herdsmen may no longer have the worry of hunger.


    The old clan leader Dawa planned and ruthlessly bought a large piece of pasture.


    "As the first customer, the rest of the ranch can be left to you by the general. It will be the same price until next year." Merton did not miss any opportunity to collect wool.


    The old clan leader of Dawa couldn''t help smiling bitterly. The young general he met was more powerful than the most treacherous profiteer, but he was as penetrating as the hearts of the people and offered conditions that he couldn''t refuse.


    "OK, I''ll buy it from Tianzhu tribe!" Dawa said without hesitation. As long as there is pasture, everything lost today can be regained. If Tianzhu tribe gave up this opportunity, I''m afraid he will regret it all his life.


    Soon, the transaction spread to the whole Tianzhu three tribes. The whole Tianzhu three tribes didn''t know whether to be excited or heartache, but everyone was relieved. The cloud pressing on the Tianzhu three tribes immediately cleared away, and the Tianzhu three tribes no longer had to worry about the destruction.


    When a large number of Tang cavalry accompanied Dawa old clan leader to announce the ownership of Tianzhu ranch to the surrounding tribes, this incredible transaction instantly spread all over Qinghai.

 Chapter 588

    "Tianzhu three tribes bought their own pasture!"


    "Tianzhu three tribes have turned to Datang!"


    After the news came from Qinghai prairie, everyone was stunned. Tianzhu three tribes had a deep blood feud with Datang before, but no one thought that the two sides should unite.


    Everyone knows the situation of the Tianzhu three tribes. They are almost doomed to die. The law of the jungle is a rule on the grassland that no one can stop. However, who could have thought that the Tianzhu three tribes had a unique way of life and took refuge in the Tang Dynasty!


    A sheep of 100 mu, a cow of 1000 mu and a horse of 2000 mu! The price of Tianzhu three tribes to buy pasture also spread all over the grassland. To be honest, if this price is normal, Tianzhu three tribes will not only lose but also make a lot of money.


    But at the moment, Datang is a white wolf with empty hands. He directly exchanged a promise for a large number of livestock of the Tianzhu three tribes.


    Seeing a large number of cattle and sheep of the Tianzhu three tribes being driven away by the Tang army, Montu''s heart bled. This was his wealth to be acquired. Now it''s all cheap for the Han people.


    "Clan leader! Dawa''s old fox dares to worship the Yin and violate the Yang! When the Tang army leaves, we must teach him a good lesson." a clansman around Montu angrily said.


    Montu suddenly turned around, slapped his face on the people, and said angrily, "lesson! Do you want our Montu tribe to be sacrificed by the Tang army like the Tuoba tribe?"


    Now everyone knows that the land of Qinghai is dominated by Datang. As long as Datang supports the Tianzhu three tribes behind, no one in the whole land of Qinghai dares to move the Tianzhu three tribes. After all, the example of Tuoba tribe is right in front of us. Anyone who dares to wave a knife at Datang is the enemy of Datang.


    Datang has also announced that if anyone dares to occupy an inch of the pastures of the Tianzhu three tribes, it will represent a provocation to Datang.


    The last example of Fu Yun and Tuoba chici was earlier. I''m afraid no one in Qinghai dared to disobey the authority of the Tang army.


    "However, the pastures of our mengtu tribe are poor. It''s not easy to have an opportunity this time. If you miss it, I''m afraid you won''t have such a good opportunity!" the people said reluctantly. The mengtu tribe was originally just a vassal of Tianzhu tribe, and its pastures are naturally not much better. Owning a good pasture is the biggest wish of all grassland herdsmen.


    Montu was tangled in his heart and his face was uncertain. He suddenly looked up for a long time and said, "in fact, it''s not that he didn''t have a chance to get a good pasture."


    The clansman couldn''t help but look happy and look at Montu.


    Montu clenched his teeth and said, "since Tianzhu tribe can buy pastures, so can my Montu tribe."


    "We also buy pasture?" the people dare not buy a channel.


    "Yes, let''s buy Mandu Mountain Ranch!" Montu said with a firm voice.


    "Mandu Mountain Ranch?" the people couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. Such a good ranch was unthinkable to his mengtu tribe.


    "Let''s go! We''ll find Tang general too!" Montu said without hesitation.


    Soon, the mongtu tribe bought one tenth of Mandu mountain pasture and reserved one third of the pasture. The news that it would pay off with cattle and sheep in five years spread all over Qinghai again.


    Mandu Mountain Ranch is a rare good ranch in Qinghai. It used to be the shepherd''s land of Fuyun Wangzhang tribe. Ordinary tribes dare not think about it, but now it has been cut off by an ordinary tribe in Tuyuhun.


    "The remaining two-thirds..."


    "And other pastures?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At this time, the small and medium-sized tribes in Qinghai suddenly heard the wind. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a small tribe. In the past, no matter how many cattle and sheep they had, they couldn''t get a good pasture and had to survive in the cracks.


    This time, however, the Tang army and its preferential prices gave the small tribes a chance to grow. Moreover, they were able to book several times of pastures and were protected by the Tang army from being bullied by the large tribes. For some small and medium-sized tribes, it was a great opportunity.


    There are also some controversial pastures between tribes. Datang will directly award the cattle and sheep to whoever gives them.


    All the departments of Tuyuhun in Qinghai grassland have been engaged in extremely primitive nomadism. In addition to the customary territory, its social structure is extremely primitive public ownership. When Merton showed them the privately owned pasture, it suddenly swept the whole Qinghai lake like a storm!


    Soon, a large number of fine pastures such as Mandu mountain, Hulun River and Qinghai ranch were divided up by some small and medium-sized tribes. Here, the terrain is flat, the climate is good, the grass is dense, the water source is abundant, and protected by the Tang army, which can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these small and medium-sized tribes.


    Small and medium-sized tribes cheered and took the opportunity to move, while Tuyuhun large tribes were very close together. They had their own excellent pasture and were not moved at all.


    However, five days later, a large tribe in Xingxiu Sichuan raised the family down and handed over a large number of livestock to the Tang army. After that, it occupied a pasture left by yuanmu from the large tribe, which completely broke the peace of the large tribe.


    "Hulun tribe, you just want to die. If you don''t stay well in Xingxiu River, you dare to seize my Mantu tribe''s pasture!" Mantu leader roared. After he got the news that the pasture was occupied, he immediately led the warriors of the tribe back to question Hulun tribe.


    "Mantu! You know what kind of place xingsuchuan is. It''s frosty in summer and snowy in August. Cattle and sheep can only eat grass for four months. Only 30% of the newborns in our tribe survive. Now we have the opportunity to return to the Bank of Qinghai Lake. Of course, my Hulun tribe will not let go!" the Hulun leader snapped.


    The climate of Xingxiu river is really too bad. The comparison between Qinghai Lake and Xingxiu river is a paradise on earth. When Hulun tribe heard that Datang bought and sold pastures with livestock, it immediately moved to Qinghai lake without hesitation.


    The man Tu leader shouted angrily, "then you can''t rob my tribe''s pasture."


    Hulun leader sneered: "Mantu tribe''s pasture was my Hulun tribe''s pasture thirty years ago. When you saw that my Hulun tribe''s strength was greatly damaged, you forcibly robbed it. Again, this time, it was not my Hulun tribe''s robbery, but my Hulun tribe bought it from Datang with cattle and sheep."


    The Hulun leader looked angry. If the Mantu tribe had not forced him, how could he hide in the bad Xingxiu Sichuan for 30 years and suffer all the pain.


    The Manchu leader couldn''t help but be slow. He naturally remembered that the Manchu tribe seized the grassland of Hulun tribe, which gradually grew. Although in the past, if the Manchu tribe let the pasture out, the Manchu tribe would not be willing anyway.


    "Don''t talk nonsense. Even the Tang Dynasty can''t seize my ranch. Today, you Hulun tribe must return the ranch, or don''t blame my Mantu tribe for being rude." the head of Mantu said with a ferocious face. Without the ranch, Mantu tribe will decline soon. It''s better to fight hard today.


    The Hulun tribe on one side was unwilling to show weakness. Herdsmen rushed in one after another and took out machetes. The war was imminent.


    "Boom!"


    Tens of thousands of Tang cavalry poured in, crashing into the two opposing tribes.


    "Stop!"


    With a loud drink, the peace messenger mojiazi came on stage.

 Chapter 589

    With the joining of the Tang Dynasty cavalry, the form of the whole ranch suddenly went down sharply, which was extremely unfavorable to the mengtu tribe.


    Hulun leader breathed a sigh of relief. Datang kept his promise. Soon, Merton''s words spread all over Qinghai and immediately caused a sensation in all parts of Tuyuhun.


    Tribal leaders, large and small, rushed to Mantu ranch. No, Hulun ranch is a way to feed ten times more cattle and sheep in Qinghai. Even any Tuyuhun tribe that hates the Han people can''t refuse such temptation. Even many tribes in Dangxiang came to hear the news.


    "Are you sure about the ink sacrifice?" Gao Shilian asked with a worried face in the Hulun tribe,


    He was very happy to receive cattle and sheep in the rear area. After hearing this, he immediately handed over his work to the lower officer and immediately led 30000 cavalry to Qinghai.


    Merton said confidently, "don''t worry, Lord Gao. The herdsmen in Tuyuhun are vulgar. They only know that they let cattle and sheep run everywhere. It''s a great waste to look at the boy. If the Han people are allowed to graze in the same pasture, it''s not a problem to use the Mohist method, let alone ten times the cattle and sheep, or twenty times the sheep."


    Don''t you see that the number of cattle and sheep in Qinghai pasture, which has been degraded so seriously in future generations, is at least 100 times that of Tuyuhun at the moment, and what Merton said at the moment can increase the number of cattle and sheep tenfold is not impossible.


    "I can trust the skill of marquis mo." Gao Shilian was a little relieved. In Chang''an City, he also heard the magic of Merton for a long time. Many things seemed impossible to others, but in Merton''s hands, he could turn corruption into magic.


    "But if mohou really has such a good prescription, it will be cheap for nothing." Gao Shilian can''t help suffering from injustice. What a great benefit it would be if he could feed ten times more cattle and sheep in Qinghai!


    Merton said with a confident smile, "I don''t know whether Lord Gao thinks that a nomadic tribe without a fixed place is easy to manage or a nomadic tribe with a fixed place is easy to manage."


    Gao Shilian couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. The biggest reason why nomads are so rebellious and difficult to tame is that these nomadic tribes have no fixed place. Once they enter the vast grassland, they can''t find people at all, but the private ownership of pastures can certainly limit these tribes to a certain range. There are owner pastures around them. Where can this tribe go?


    Gao Shilian couldn''t help but turn his mind and beat his heart. If mojiazi could do what he promised, Datang would have a firm foothold in Tuyuhun.


    "By the way, did you ever bring the flour that Lord Gao asked me to bring?" Merton asked suddenly. He had promised that each part of the grassland could exchange three times the weight of grain with a sheep, but Merton was prepared to locate all these grains as expensive flour.


    "They have brought hundreds of carriages, but if you use corn, the court will earn more." Gao Shilian wondered. For grassland herdsmen living on the hunger and satiety line, both corn and flour are the same to them, as long as they can fill their stomachs.


    Merton explained: "Unfair trading is the most taboo. The price of corn is too low in Datang, and the price of mutton is too high. If it is spread to the ears of herdsmen for a long time, it will certainly make people unbalanced and resent Datang. The high price of flour can not only make the people in Lanzhou earn a hand fee, but also make the transaction seem fair, so as to stabilize the hearts of herdsmen."


    Gao Shilian suddenly looked at Merton with appreciation. He did not doubt whether the herdsmen were willing to change flour. After all, most herdsmen were still in a state of insufficient food. Flour could make them no longer endure hunger. They would not refuse such a thing.


    "Moreover, we Datang should not only support but also control all the departments in Qinghai. The corn can still be eaten after being stored for several years, but the flour is not easy to preserve, only for one year at most. Moreover, it is very susceptible to moisture and deterioration in summer. If Tuyuhun changes, we Datang just need to cut off the flour supply. Before long, Tuyuhun will return to its original shape." Merton whispered.


    "It''s a good plan to rely on Datang for food and clothing, and abandon Datang for hunger! I believe Tuyuhun will never be separated from Datang again!" Gao Shilian praised.


    Merton nodded, which was exactly what he planned.


    "If this plan can operate in all departments in Qinghai, it can also be used in all Turkic departments, and even for all other grassland departments!" Gao Shilian added that in this way, Datang can exchange a large number of cattle and sheep only with grain every year. This business can make a steady profit without losing. More importantly, this kind of control production is extremely hidden. There is no lack of flour supply in all parts of the grassland, which ordinary people can''t detect at all.


    "Lord Gao is wise!" Merton looked at Gao Shilian with admiration. He is worthy of being an elite figure in the Tang Dynasty. He can enlarge this plan several times in a short time.


    Gao Shilian smiled and said, "after this, you and I wrote to the imperial court together and took this method as a way to control the grassland. It must be a great achievement."


    Merton also smiled and nodded.


    "Young master, all the leaders have arrived, waiting for you and Lord Gao." Merton and Gao Shilian finished their negotiation, and heard tie an remind outside.


    When Gao Shilian saw Merton''s wisdom, his confidence in Merton immediately increased by three points. He took the lead in getting up and said, "ink sacrifice wine. Let''s go together. I''ve heard a lot about the famous unique skills of the Mohist school."


    Merton quickly got up and said, "I promise I won''t let Lord Gao down."


    Merton opened his tent and went out. He took a deep breath. From then on, the nomadic career lasting for thousands of years is coming to an end, and the era of grazing is coming.

 Chapter 590

    "Mojiazi!"


    When Merton appeared, the leaders of each tribe had already focused on Merton in the venue arranged by Hulun tribe.


    Before that, all the departments of Tuyuhun naturally didn''t care about what Mohism was. However, Tuyuhun didn''t know anything about the Tang Dynasty. The former Khan Fuyun loved to inquire about the information of the Tang Dynasty, and there were a few Hu business contacts between Tuyuhun and the Tang Dynasty. In just a few days, all kinds of rumors about Mohism spread wildly in front of the leaders of various tribes.


    "It''s said that Tang will turn stone into gold! He is a famous rich man in the Tang Dynasty."


    "According to the Han people, this Tang general is the most learned among the Han people. No matter how difficult the world is, it is easy for him."


    "It is said that this Tang Dynasty will become the richest tribe of the Tang Dynasty in a year with a tribe of the poorest 5000 Han people."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Naturally, the leaders do not understand how great the various schools are, but they are very interested in Merton''s wealth myth. Combined with the legendary experience of Merton spread to Tuyuhun, they are even more interested.


    "Maybe what he said can make a pasture feed ten times more cattle and sheep?" many people expected.


    Some leaders don''t believe it, but no one shows it. Whether it''s true or false will be known after today.


    "Lord Gao!"


    When Merton and Gao Shilian came together, Murong Shun saw Gao Shilian''s warm face and quickly welcomed him.


    For Gao Shilian, he knows very well that the elders and ministers of the Tang Dynasty are also the mother and uncle of empress Chang sun. If Gao Shilian can contribute to Tuyuhun''s recovery, the role he can play will be very important.


    "Prince Shun!" Gao Shilian pulled away without trace.


    He naturally knows Murong Shun''s purpose. Unfortunately, he doesn''t want to get involved in this kind of thing now. If Murong Shun becomes the Khan of Tuyuhun, how can Datang smoothly get cattle and sheep and other wealth from Tuyuhun.


    Murong Shun noticed Gao Shilian''s estrangement. He was embarrassed and angrily asked Gao Shilian and Merton to take their seats.


    "Although Tuyuhun is located in a remote place, Murong Shun has also heard of the reputation of the first village in the world. Murong hou can make the village rich all over the world on his own. Our grassland departments are looking forward to Murong Hou''s amazing secret skills." Murong Shun said with a compliment on his face.


    "Mohou is in Gaoyi. The conditions in all parts of the grassland are difficult and the herdsmen are short of food and clothing. If mohou can save the herdsmen from water and fire, we will pray for you day and night." a large tribal leader shouted.


    "Mohou loves the world and has lofty aspirations..." shouted another big tribal leader.


    Suddenly, words of praise floated to Merton without money.


    In the back of the tribal leader, Dawa leader of Tianzhu three tribe bowed his head and showed a sneer. If Tang Jiang could really be deceived by these good words, wouldn''t the cattle and sheep of Tianzhu three tribe be in vain that day.


    Merton stood up and bowed to the leaders: "the Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and the Mohists also advocate universal love and non aggression. I came to the prairie with the purpose of peace."


    The two sides just ended the war. Merton''s words were naturally not believed by a hundred leaders, but looking at the heavily guarded Tang soldiers around, the leaders wisely closed their mouths.


    "The grassland people have a hard life, and life is not easy. Herdsmen not only have to fight with wolves, but also fight against natural and man-made disasters, not to mention birth, old age and death. Many adult warriors can''t live more than 40, and more than half of their babies die prematurely." Merton said in a heavy tone.


    The leaders of all the tribes can''t help feeling sad. It''s too difficult to survive on the grassland, and the mortality rate is too high, not to mention dangerous places such as Xingxiu river. Otherwise, Hulun tribe won''t try its best to return to the Bank of Qinghai Lake.


    "However, you don''t know that in the Central Plains, people over 60 can be found everywhere. The tall man beside me is a man of 60 years old. As long as he is not incurable, he can be cured in Datang. If the baby is congenitally deficient, there is no problem in survival." Merton vigorously publicizes the advantages of Datang.


    Many tribal leaders can''t help but yearn for Datang. Although these leaders live better than ordinary herdsmen, they are not much better. They are resigned to their fate in case of disease.


    "I can promise you that as long as you are the leaders and your children here today, you can enjoy the treatment benefits of the best hospital in Chang''an City and keep you healthy and long-lived." Merton shouted.


    Many leaders are very excited. There are few medical conditions in Qinghai. They all rely on hard resistance and some witch doctors and blind cats to meet dead mice. Even few leaders can live beyond 40. The richer and more important people are, the more afraid of death. Merton''s commitment directly hit the weakness of these Tuyuhun leaders.


    Moreover, the news that more than 90% of the wounded soldiers in the Tang Dynasty have a cure rate has already spread by the Qinghai Lake, and the name of a doctor is like thunder on the grassland.


    Another smile appeared in Gao Shilian''s heart. This is another move negotiated by the Mohist School and him to directly buy the leaders of Tuyuhun. I believe that this plan, although it can''t make these leaders subordinate immediately, it can make many leaders turn to the Tang Dynasty. After all, who can avoid three diseases and five disasters.


    "Mohou loves the world and Tuyuhun thanks mohou for his generosity." Murong Shun quietly showed his wrist and thanked Merton on behalf of Tuyuhun tribes.


    Merton could not detect Murong Shun''s intention. He just smiled and didn''t think so. Instead, he smiled, moved his fingers, whistled, and suddenly a loud horse hiss came.


    "Da Da!"


    The tall, vigorous shadow rushed into the meeting like a lightning bolt, suddenly stopped beside Merton and touched Merton with his head.


    "Peerless BMW!"


    Even the tribal leaders who are used to seeing BMW can''t help cheering when they see the last shadow, so even Tuyuhun is very rare.


    Merton said proudly, "this is the Marquis''s Mount Jue Ying. You see that today''s Jue Ying is flying, but you don''t know that a year ago, Jue Ying''s four hoofs cracked and it was very painful to walk. If you didn''t meet Marquis, I''m afraid you would die soon."


    Many tribal leaders were surprised. The cracking of horses'' hooves was not unique to the Tang Dynasty. It was also very common in Qinghai. Generally speaking, as long as the horses with four hooves cracked, they had no value and could only kill and eat meat. After the four hooves cracked in front of BMW, they were able to walk fast and obviously recovered. How can they not make a lot of leaders excited.


    Merton didn''t sell off, but stretched out his hand. Jue Ying was very spiritual and put his front hoof on Merton''s palm. Merton held Jue Ying''s front hoof and walked around in front of the leaders, showing the ferocious scars and horseshoes on Jue Ying''s horse hoof to the leaders.


    "Ben Hou created the method of wound suture and horseshoe. From then on, there is no hidden danger of cracking and damage of Datang horses." Merton put down jueying''s Horseshoe, waved it, and jueying immediately jumped away.


    "So it is!" the leaders suddenly realized that there was an excited look on their faces. Horses are also extremely valuable wealth on the grassland. Countless horses are damaged every year because of the cracking of their hoofs. Now that they have obtained this technology, there is no hidden danger of the damage of war horses.


    At this moment, the leaders face up to this young and excessive general for the first time. Betrayal and anti betrayal are common on the grassland. Whoever can bring benefits to the tribe is the ally of the tribe. At this moment, Datang has brought benefits to all tribes.


    "In addition, I want you to witness a transaction here. I promised the Tianzhu tribe to exchange three times the weight of flour for a sheep. I''m here today to complete the transaction."


    Merton reached out and waved. Suddenly, four horses pulled a fully loaded four-wheel carriage slowly into the venue. Several Tang soldiers immediately came forward and immediately revealed bags of white flour.


    "This is fine noodles!"


    Suddenly all the leaders were in an uproar. In Tuyuhun, due to the limited production tools, there were only a small amount of rough sorghum flour in addition to meat. The flour ground from wheat was called refined flour, and only the most noble leaders were qualified to eat.


    Even Dawa leader couldn''t believe it. Looking at the scene in front of him, he didn''t have any objection to Merton''s three times the price of grain for sheep in order to keep the pasture. He originally thought that the treachery of the Tang people must be replaced with the cheapest corn. However, Merton''s behavior today overturned all his guesses.


    Merton looked at the stunned Tuyuhun leaders, and couldn''t help but say proudly, "I''m the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. I''m the Heavenly Kingdom. The heavenly Khan is wise and powerful. I''m the Lord of the world. How can I take advantage of you."


    Gao Shilian almost didn''t spray out a mouthful of tea. The appearance of Merton''s righteous words is far from the appearance of the grassland he discussed with him just now. However, Merton did not deceive Tuyuhun. Flour is also a top-grade ingredient in Datang. According to the current market price, the Dawa tribe did not lose money in this wave of transactions.


    "With Khan on the sky, our Tianzhu tribe will always remember the kindness of the Tang Dynasty!" leader Dawa didn''t know whether to pretend or sigh, but showed his loyalty in public.


    Other leaders were also filled with emotion. Today''s performance of Merton directly overturned people''s impression of Tang merchants. It was very different from that merchant who killed 300 horses of Tianzhu king with a diamond. Immediately, the impression of Tang by all leaders was greatly changed, and the original resistance dissipated slowly.


    "Lord of Tang Dynasty, you are a believer. I Hulun tribe trust you. I wonder if my tribe can exchange it like this." Hulun leader shouted. He spent a lot of cattle and sheep to exchange this pasture from Merton. He originally thought that the people would be hungry this year. Merton''s deal brightened his eyes. According to this transaction method, He Hulun tribe can certainly feed most of its people at the least cost.


    Merton nodded readily and said, "of course, I don''t deceive children and old people in Datang. As long as I recognize Tian Khan, I will treat Datang equally."


    "My tribe also wants to trade with Datang!" Montu tribe is unwilling to show weakness.


    "My tribe also wants..."


    Many small and medium-sized tribes shouted that it was not easy for small tribes to survive. If they could exchange three times the food, the people''s life would be greatly improved. Not only that, even some large tribes were excited.


    Gao Shilian has been observing the reaction of the leaders of various tribes. He can''t help nodding secretly. As soon as Merton''s skill is used, Datang has the tools to control the grassland and can make all parts of the grassland return to their hearts. It''s really killing two birds with one stone.


    Murong Shun was worried. These leaders looked at Merton more warmly than seeing him as a Khan. If this continued, wouldn''t all the tribes have to buy off the past for the Mohists? Now they had an idea and loudly reminded him: "The unique skills of the Mohist school are really extraordinary, but what Marquis Mo said before is a way to increase the number of cattle and sheep on the grassland. I wonder if we can have a glimpse."


    The leaders suddenly remembered today''s business and looked at Merton with expectant eyes. At this moment, people''s confidence in Merton suddenly increased several times.


    Merton laughed and said, "well, if you don''t talk about it, there are only two ways to feed cattle and sheep, one is water and the other is grass! In a land with sufficient water, grass and waist, the sky is vast, the wind blows grass, the cattle and sheep are low, and in a dry land, the shallow grass can have no horse hoofs!"


    "Shallow grass can''t have a horse''s hoof!" Gao Shilian couldn''t help but be stunned and secretly scolded the Mozi for being a tyrant. This sentence is a good half sentence. It''s a tyrant to listen to these barbarians.


    Chilechuan is a ballad of Chile people in Xianbei. Tuyuhun, who is also a Xianbei people, naturally knows it, while Merton''s half poem is very easy to understand. The leaders can''t help nodding one after another.


    On the grassland, water is indeed the top priority. Most of the struggles of tribes on the grassland revolve around water sources. Where there is water, cattle and sheep can drink water, and herdsmen can survive.


    "The water problem is easy to solve! Ben Hou solved it a year ago!"


    However, Merton''s next sentence stunned the leaders.


    "A year ago!" the leaders looked at Merton in disbelief. Even Murong Shun didn''t believe it.


    Only Gao Shilian nodded thoughtfully.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, benhou created the method of well drilling and well killing in all parts of Datang one year ago. Now it has spread all over Datang. According to this method, as long as a well is drilled in all parts of the grassland, more than 1000 cattle and sheep can drink."


    As long as there is grass on the grassland, there will be groundwater. As long as you choose a low-lying place, you can certainly draw water.


    As long as there is sufficient water, herdsmen will not have to work hard to drive cattle and sheep for decades to graze and look for water. As long as there is grassland, they can feed cattle and sheep. In this way, the places suitable for grazing in Qinghai will increase exponentially.


    "Cattle and sheep can live with water, but if you want cattle and sheep to grow, you must let cattle and sheep eat grass, especially in dry and yellow winter, cattle and sheep lose fat, and the thin and weak can''t survive the long winter." Merton said.


    Many leaders nodded one after another. This is the largest world on the grassland. It''s a long winter.


    Merton looked at the leaders and said proudly, "the Mohists love all living beings and can''t bear the suffering of herdsmen. Therefore, Ben Hou specially created a method for herdsmen to feed cattle, sheep and grass in winter, silage!"

 Chapter 591

    "Silage!"


    "Feed cattle, sheep and grass in winter! How is this possible?"


    The crowd could not help but burst into an uproar. One by one, they looked at Merton with suspicious eyes. Everything withered in winter. How could there be grass.


    Suddenly, many leaders showed a look of disappointment. They came with hope, but now it seems that Merton played a big joke on them.


    "Mo Hou is not joking? How can there be grass in winter?" Murong Shun was secretly happy and fell into a well.


    As long as Merton''s lie is exposed, the credit established by Tang Jun on the grassland will disappear. At that time, murongshun will be the only place to rely on in Qinghai.


    Merton proudly said, "what you can''t do doesn''t mean that Mohists can''t do it."


    Murong Shun sneered: "if mohou can really make cattle and sheep eat grass in winter, Murong Shun is willing to bow down and personally persuade all parts of the grassland to buy pastures."


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, I don''t have to. I don''t have to be aboveboard. How can I buy and sell by force? Whether I want to buy a ranch depends on my own will."


    "I''ll open my eyes and wait for the unparalleled ink skills of Mohism." Murong Shun sneered.


    Many leaders are also skeptical. According to common sense, how could there be grass in winter? If it weren''t for so many magical performances before Merton, the leaders would have a little more hope. In addition, they might have turned around and left long ago because they were afraid of the prestige of Tang Jun.


    Merton looked around and said proudly: "In summer, a newly slaughtered beef and mutton will stink after being stored for three days. However, in the long winter, under the cover of ice and snow, a sheep can still be eaten even after a winter. In the hot Chang''an City, Mo once made cold ice in summer. At low temperature, the food has been preserved for more than one month. For the preservation of food, the Mohist School There is unique research. "


    Gao Shilian nodded slowly. Let''s take compressed dry food as an example. It can be preserved for two months to six months, which has never been achieved since ancient times.


    Murong Shun sneered: "cattle and sheep are naturally frozen, but grass is just the opposite. Not to mention ice and snow, even frost will wither immediately, and even the least picky cattle and sheep will not eat."


    Merton nodded, but agreed: "it''s true, so the Mohists came up with another method, that is, the fermentation method of wine making!"


    "The fermentation of wine making!"


    This time, even Gao Shilian looked at each other. I can''t think of the relationship between wine making and silage.


    Tuyuhun leaders were also confused. They naturally drank Mohist wine, but they knew nothing about the fermentation of wine.


    Merton explained: "the raw material of wine making is grain, which is homologous with green grass. Once the grain used for wine making is fermented, the process will take more than one month, and it can ensure that the grain will not be moldy and bad. Ben took this as an inspiration and came up with another way to store green grass."


    As soon as Merton waved his hand, Tie''an immediately pulled a huge four-wheel carriage, which was filled with four huge jars. Tie''an commanded the children of Mohism to put down the four jars one by one and put them in the center.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, Tie''an immediately opened the seals of the four jars. Suddenly, the four jars of grass slowly appeared in front of everyone. Suddenly, a unique smell of grass filled everyone''s taste,


    "The four tanks of silage were made by our Lord''s order in June. It took a full month and a half. Now, if this silage is feasible, leaders can pull their horses over to see if it can be eaten." Merton said confidently.


    "A month and a half!"


    The leaders immediately looked at each other. It was hot at the moment. If they could really store the grass for a month and a half, wouldn''t it be bad in the long and cold winter? Maybe the method of feeding cattle and sheep grass in winter that Tang Jiang said could be realized.


    At present, leader Dawa and leader Hulun took the lead, moved out a horse respectively, fished out some grass and put it in front of the horse. Between them, the two horses made a loud nose, smelled the fermented grass, and immediately ate it.


    The leaders are people who know horses. Naturally, they can see that the two horses not only eat, but also have an extremely enjoyable expression.


    At present, many leaders couldn''t bear it. They pulled their BMW and tested it in person. As a result, their war horses also ate very sweet.


    Many leaders couldn''t believe it. They directly grabbed a handful of grass, checked it in person, discussed it with each other, and confirmed that it was not fresh grass. At least they cut it for more than half a month.


    However, at the moment, the weather is hot, let alone half a day, even three days, I''m afraid the cut fresh grass will wither and rot, which can''t be eaten by horses.


    "Whether you can eat or not, these BMWs are the best proof! It''s not easy to put it in summer. If it''s cold winter, as long as you store enough grass, you can still supply livestock to eat grass throughout the winter without losing fat!" Merton pointed to the war horse road where you are eating silage.


    Many leaders couldn''t help being silent. Everything in front of them shocked them too much. It can be said that it has changed the customs of the grassland for thousands of years.


    "Even if what Lord Mo said is true, I''m afraid this jar alone can''t hold much grass!" Murong Shun saw the leaders pounding with emotion and had an idea, pointing out a defect of Merton.


    "It''s just how much a jar can hold. If you want to save enough cattle and sheep to eat grass, how many stalls do you need?" a tribal leader who followed murongshun smacked his tongue.


    Other tribal leaders also flinched at the news. Tuyuhun tribe can''t make pottery jars. So many jars have to be transported from Datang to Qinghai. I''m afraid their value is no less than that of cattle and sheep.


    Merton sneered. He naturally knew why these tribes reacted so much, but he had already thought of the way to deal with it.


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, the curtain behind the leaders slowly fell, and the leaders were surprised to find that there was a deep pit behind them.


    With the order of Hulun leader, a large number of herdsmen of Hulun tribe poured carts of cut grass into the deep pit, and someone stepped on the grass specially, so that more grass could be loaded in.


    The tribal leaders stared at a small pit and loaded a cart of grass. At most, the quantity was smacking. When they couldn''t fit it, they covered the pit with several boards, and then covered it with soil.


    Merton said, "this is the easiest way to store silage. There are 28 carts of grass in a pit, enough for hundreds of cattle and sheep. It''s cold in winter, so it''s easier to preserve. As long as you store enough grass, you can guarantee that you won''t go bad until the beginning of spring next year."


    "Hoo!"


    Suddenly, the leaders were short of breath. In winter, there was a lack of grass, and only a small amount of hay could be used. The cattle and sheep lost fat seriously. Every winter, the cattle and sheep would lose a lot. According to Merton''s silage, they must be able to feed more cattle and sheep in winter.


    Even Gao Shilian breathed out heavily, with a little worry in his eyes. He can naturally see the value of silage from his old eyes. If he was won by all parts of the grassland, wouldn''t it be like adding wings to the tiger.


    Merton doesn''t care about this at all. Now Datang has such peerless weapons as gunpowder. It would be too cowardly if it could be overturned by the grassland departments.


    "I believe that with this good recipe, there will be more cattle and sheep on the grassland, and the herdsmen will never be hungry again. Datang will buy cattle and sheep at a high price to ensure that you will live a rich life." Merton took the opportunity to add another fire.


    "Thank you, mohou!" all the leaders said happily. At this moment, the hatred between Datang and Tuyuhun seemed to disappear in a moment,


    "Horseshoe!"


    "The method of wound suture!"


    "Well drilling method!"


    "The method of storing grass!"


    If this series of unique skills are popularized on the grassland, it can be imagined that the life of herdsmen in the future will be better than before.


    The whole scene was harmonious. It was a kiss of the Tang family.

 Chapter 592

    "I''ve heard that the unique skill of Mohist school is unique in the world. Today, it''s really extraordinary. A simple secret skill of Mohist school can certainly save tens of thousands of herdsmen from hunger. I''d like to thank mohou for his profound righteousness and teaching me the method of Tuyuhun''s various departments to store green grass."


    Murong Shun stayed for a long time. He laughed and got up with a look of praise. With the help of these unique skills of Mohism, Murong Shun believes that Tuyuhun will rise again soon.


    Other leaders also woke up one after another and bowed down to thank Merton one by one. Many leaders looked at Merton with hot eyes. Tuyuhun and Datang had just had a war, but at this moment, all leaders secretly regretted why the Mexican family didn''t come to the grassland earlier.


    "Of course, all this is not for you to use for free." Merton''s voice sounded again, and Murong Shun and the leaders were like ducks caught by the neck.


    "Mohou should not be joking!"


    Murong Shun looked at Merton with difficulty: "Shun once heard that the righteousness of Mohist marquis is is thin. He once disclosed the secret skills of Mohism many times in the ink technology exhibition in Chang''an City, which was used by the people all over the world for free. Countless people benefited from it. Everyone praised the profound meaning of Mohism."


    Merton shook his head and said, "I want to correct you here. The unique skill of the Mohist school is not to let the people all over the world use it for free, but let the people of the Tang Dynasty use it for free! If you want to use it, you need to pay money or cattle and sheep."


    "Ah!"


    The leaders looked at Merton in disbelief. Just now, he thought Merton was as lovely as a good money boy. Now, how do you think this boy is as hateful as a gadfly lying on the back of an ox sucking blood.


    "That Mo Hou is a matter of talent, learning and purity. How can he be as haggard as a businessman?" Murong concluded.


    "Prince Shun, there is no free lunch in the world. Mohism is the Mohism of the Tang Dynasty. The purpose of Mohism is to let countless people of the Tang Dynasty live a happy and stable life. As for other people outside the Tang Dynasty, Mohism has no obligation or ability to take care of them." Merton said positively.


    Gao Shilian couldn''t help looking at Merton with appreciation. Merton can be said to have talked about his heart. The previous secret skills have been well known in the Tang Dynasty. Even if Merton doesn''t take the initiative to make it public, it will spread to the grassland sooner or later. This time, the last silage that really changed the grassland is the last silage. Merton''s move has made the grassland much stronger, If the grassland is used for free again, he may also doubt Merton''s intentions, and Merton''s task is to provide disaster relief materials for millions of people in seven counties of Shandong.


    "How should I buy it? How much money is needed?" Murong Shun asked instead of all the leaders.


    Merton said confidently, "in Datang, if you use other people''s things, you will take out money as a thank-you. Now the Mohists have given this peerless secret skill, and you can see the benefits with your own eyes. Even if it is worth ten thousand gold, it is not too much. If Prince Shun can give this money for the people of Tuyuhun, it will naturally be used by the people of Tuyuhun."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, all the leaders immediately turned their eyes to Murong Shun.


    "Ten thousand gold!"


    Murong Shun''s face suddenly stiffened. How could he have so much money, a self styled Khan without name and power.


    "Mohou is not joking!" Murong Shun said awkwardly.


    Merton asked, "does Prince Shun think this technique is not worth ten thousand gold?"


    Murong Shun choked at once. He could make a pasture feed more cattle and sheep. The value of this secret skill could not be estimated. He had no choice but to say, "nature is worth it, but how can I make a fortune?"


    A group of leaders couldn''t help showing a disappointed expression.


    "Since Prince Shun is gone, Ben hou can''t do business at a loss, and there''s nothing I can do," said Merton.


    Murong Shun suddenly looked black. He knew that if he didn''t help at this time, he would lose the hearts of all the leaders of Tuyuhun. He couldn''t help looking at Gao Shilian aside and said: "Lord Gao, you are a respected person. Now Datang and Tuyuhun are close together. How can Lord Gao bear to watch the Tuyuhun people precarious? Please persuade Lord Mo to have mercy on my Tuyuhun people. Xiao Wang will be very grateful."


    Gao Shilian naturally knew Merton''s purpose. When he heard Murong Shun''s words, he said, "Marquis Mo, although the Mohist school is the Mohist School of the Tang Dynasty, Tian Khan is the leader of the four seas. Our purpose in coming to the grassland today is to let Tuyuhun escape from Fuyun''s tyranny and live a rich life. Marquis Mo doesn''t want to look at my face and give Tuyuhun people some convenience."


    Merton looked like: "since Lord Gao spoke, how can the boy not give face? All tribes who used to buy pastures with cattle and sheep can use the secret skills of the Mohist school free of charge."


    When Merton finished, the leader of Hulun and others cheered. With these secret skills and superior pastures, the revival of their tribe is just around the corner.


    As for the fact that their pasture was bought from Datang, they did not have the slightest worry. In today''s Qinghai, the credibility of the young Tang general in front of them is much higher than Murong Shun, not to mention that the young Tang general has brought you such peerless secret skills. Even some leaders secretly regret that the pasture they bought before is a little small.


    Gao Shilian could not help but show a knowing smile. Merton''s move not only gave him face, but also attracted a considerable number of Tuyuhun tribes. Coupled with the strength of the Tang army, the people of the whole Tuyuhun have been biased towards the Tang Dynasty.


    "What about the other tribes?" Murong Shun asked.


    Merton said proudly, "since Prince Shun doesn''t have so much money, he can only recover the cost in his own way. If you are willing to buy pasture, you can also use these secret skills for free. If you don''t want to buy pasture, you can pay some cattle and sheep to Datang to get the right to use it."


    "I don''t know how many cattle and sheep mohou said?" Murong Shun asked carefully.


    "Each tribe has ten horses, ten cattle and a hundred sheep!" said Merton.


    Murong Shun and a group of large tribal leaders suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. For large tribes, this price can be said to be extremely relaxed.


    "Every year!" Merton added.


    "Er, ER!" suddenly the smile of the leaders of large tribes stiffened. If they had to pay so much every year, it would be an astronomical figure.


    Murong Shun and the leaders suddenly understood that Merton''s last thought was to buy pastures with cattle and sheep.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, the era of herding has come. With these ink skills, your people can live a rich life without distant herding. Before that, cattle and sheep were the most valuable on the grassland, but it has changed since today, and the most valuable will be pasture." Merton shouted.


    "Grazing!" many leaders thought. If they could live a stable life, it is estimated that not many tribes would like to nomadize.


    However, many tribes are different. This is the pasture they have lived in for generations. How can they be willing to exchange cattle and sheep for their own pasture from Datang.


    Merton looked at the leaders of a large tribe and said with a sneer: "Ben Hou always pays attention to voluntariness. You are not willing to buy the right to use Mohist ink technology. Ben Hou will not force you. You may have more than one month to test silage. Ben Hou will wait for you for a month, even if you don''t buy it."


    Murong Shun and the leaders were relieved.


    "However, if you use Mohist ink without permission, once Ben Hou finds out, Ben Hou will not only punish you severely, but also let your tribe keep every inch of iron." Merton said coldly.


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, many big tribal leaders suddenly flashed their eyes, which obviously hit their plan.


    With the wave of Merton''s big hand, I saw a Mohist child in civilian clothes rolling over with something like a small millstone. As soon as they arrived at the meeting, many leaders felt a great attraction to attract their iron ornaments, and even some iron articles deliberately arranged by Merton on the table flew directly to the Mohist children, The whole meeting place was a mess.


    "What is this?"


    The leaders were shocked. They suddenly remembered the rumor that Datang had confiscated the armor of all the departments of Dangxiang. It seems that this young Tang will develop a thing that can attract iron tools. Today, they were shocked at the sight.


    However, they did not know that the magnet used by Merton when he collected the party''s iron armor was very small and relied on intimidation, and this magnet was specially made by Merton in Mojia village and sent to Shanzhou.


    The leaders couldn''t help but take a breath. If Tang Jun really used this thing to walk in his own tribe, I''m afraid he would lose his iron. I''m afraid every tribe can''t even kill cattle and sheep. Suddenly, many leaders'' previous careful thoughts disappeared without a trace.


    "If our tribe lost cattle and sheep, how can we spend this long winter night?" a large tribal leader said helplessly. If they don''t use the secret skills of Mohism, I''m afraid they will soon be surpassed by other tribes, and their own tribes will continue to starve.


    If they fall to Datang, they will lose a lot of cattle and sheep. They have more pastures. I''m afraid they will lose more cattle and sheep. I''m afraid it''s not enough for the people to survive.


    "You can exchange cattle and sheep for fine flour from Datang, and now Datang is going to build a salt farm in Shanzhou. You only need to pull the salt mine on the ground like sand to Shanzhou to get enough fine flour and spend the cold winter." Merton shouted.


    The leaders were silent one after another. Datang''s meaning was obvious. As long as he was willing to turn to Datang, he would certainly have a rich life. If he was stubborn, he would continue to go back and live a hard life.


    "I wonder if mohou can wait for me for some time!" Murong Shun said to a group of tribal leaders.


    "That''s natural, but don''t let Mo wait too long. I heard that there are several tribes in Xingxiu River driving cattle and sheep to the Bank of Qinghai Lake." Merton sneered.


    Suddenly, many leaders felt cold and turned to look at the iron faced man Tu leaders. These tribes had the opportunity to come to the warm and suitable Qinghai Lake. Naturally, they would not miss this opportunity, but where did the pasture come from? I''m afraid they had to occupy their pasture.

 Chapter 593

    The leaders of Tuyuhun''s various departments were both happy and sad. What they liked was the leaders of some small and medium-sized tribes. They used these ink skills free of charge. A strong tribe was just around the corner, while some large tribes were worried.


    If they want to use ink technology, it will cost them too much, and they will pay ten cattle and ten horses a year. This is not a small amount. The price is expensive. The pasture is not their own. If other tribes pay for their own pasture and have the support of Tang Jun, I''m afraid they will lose in the end.


    As for their ruthless use of Mohist ink technology, it is impossible. If they do not use Mohist ink technology, other tribes will not worry about food and drink, while their own tribe is precarious, which will certainly make their own tribe unstable. Moreover, once they nomad, leave their pasture and come back, it is not certain whether they own it!


    "Mohou is brilliant!" in the felt tent, Gao Shilian admired and looked at Merton. Merton''s intention was very obvious, that is, to search for cattle and sheep from Tuyuhun as much as possible. However, his means were very clever. Each cattle and sheep were handed over by these tribes. Moreover, Merton used some ink skills to dispel the complaints of losing cattle and sheep, and attracted a large number of small and medium-sized tribes for the Tang Dynasty.


    Although these small and medium-sized tribes have a small population and weak strength, they can''t stand a large number. In addition, they are naturally weak on the grassland, so they are destined to lean towards Datang.


    In this way, the Tang Dynasty gathered a large number of cattle and sheep, and instantly split Tuyuhun into two factions.


    Merton Hao Ran said, "if Datang had not defeated Tuyuhun, I''m afraid there would be no room to use his great plan."


    Gao Shilian nodded secretly. He is worthy of being a famous Mexican family. It is commendable to take credit without being proud.


    "Now we just need to sit down and catch Yuntai. Naturally, some tribes will fall to my Tang Dynasty." Gao Shilian said happily.


    Sure enough, it wasn''t long before tiean came to report to leader Mantu.


    Gao Shilian and Merton looked at each other and laughed.


    "See Lord Mo, see Lord Gao. I wonder if our Mantu tribe can buy back their pasture!" the leader of Mantu lowered his posture and begged.


    Other large tribes still have a choice, and his Mantu tribe has lost its pasture, just like a rootless Ping. He originally wanted to rely on Murong Shun, but after seeing Merton''s unique skills today, he knows that even if he loses these cattle and sheep today and has his own pasture and ink skills, these cattle and sheep will be able to earn back sooner or later.


    "Of course not! I have great reputation in Tang Dynasty. Since I have promised to sell it to Hulun tribe, I can''t eat my words and get fat." Merton shook his head. Hulun leader is very good at being a man, and he is helpless. He is the iron pole closest to the Tang Dynasty. Merton naturally can''t chill his heart.


    The leader of man Tu suddenly changed his face.


    "However, Ben hou can sell you a better pasture!" Merton suddenly went on and said a place name.


    "Ah!"


    Mantu leader''s mood suddenly changed from sadness to joy. He couldn''t believe looking at Merton. That place is a special hunting place for Fuyun. There are plenty of water and grass. He didn''t even dare to think about it before.


    "Thank you, mohou!"


    Man Tu''s leader rejoiced that the resentment of the occupation of the ranch had long disappeared.


    Merton waved his hand. The leader of Mantu followed a Tang Jun away with a happy face and immediately went to handle the handover procedures.


    Soon, the new territory of Mantu tribe spread among the leaders, and there was an uproar.


    Although the Mantu tribe is at the bottom among the large tribes in Tuyuhun, if they get that pasture, the tribe will become stronger and stronger. At present, some thoughtful tribal leaders have come to Merton to prepare to divide up the remaining fine pastures. Some smart people suddenly found out, If they can afford it, they may also be able to obtain pastures larger and better located than the previous tribes.


    However, among the tribal leaders, one tribal leader surprised Gao Shilian and Merton.


    "Old clan leader hule!" Merton raised his eyebrows when he saw old clan leader hule.


    He has a deep memory of old clan leader hule. He is like an old fox. He can escape several times. Even Gao Shilian couldn''t help looking more at old clan leader hule for the first time, and obviously also saw the information about him.


    "Mohou, I knew that mohou must be extraordinary as soon as I saw mohou. Sure enough, when mohou did it today, countless herdsmen on the grassland would benefit from it." the old hule family smiled and bowed to Gao Shilian.


    Merton laughed and said, "I''m flattered. What''s the matter with the old patriarch coming today?"


    The old clan leader of hule said positively, "mohouze was the land of Qinghai, which is actually the gospel of all parts of the grassland. I don''t know whether our party''s departments are still looking forward to such secret skills. I don''t know whether our party''s departments can use these secret skills."


    Merton and Gao Shilian looked at each other and said quietly, "Heaven can sweat everywhere. Naturally, you will be treated equally. If you want the secret skills of Mohism, you just need to be the same as each department of Tuyuhun."


    "Then I, the hule tribe, want to buy the pasture of the Tuoba tribe." the old clan leader of hule clenched his teeth and said his purpose.


    Tuoba tribe is the largest tribe in Dangxiang and occupies the best pastures of all departments in Dangxiang. When Tuoba tribe flourished, hule old clan leader naturally dared not make up his mind. However, at the moment, Tuoba tribe declined and Tuoba chici was trapped in Chang''an city. Obviously, he can''t come back. Hule old clan leader will not miss this opportunity.


    Merton was suddenly stunned, pondered for a moment, looked at the old clan leader hule with strange eyes and said, "do you know that the clan leader Tuoba was deeply valued by his Majesty in Chang''an City, and was awarded the right guard general, ranking high."


    The old clan chief hule nodded and said, "even so, those pastures haven''t been bought by the Tuoba tribe yet?"


    Merton thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "the ranch of Tuoba tribe is sensitive, and even Ben Hou has no right to decide. However, the ranch of Ulan tribe is now deserted. If old clan leader hule is interested, everything is easy to say."


    Old clan leader hule shook his head regretfully and said, "I''m old and I''m still familiar with my ranch."


    Although the old clan leader hule regretted that he could not get the pasture of Tuoba tribe, he was also very happy to set his own pasture with cattle and sheep in exchange for the right to use ink technology.


    He is an old fox. Naturally, he knows that the Tang Dynasty has nothing to say on the grassland. The hule tribe has no room to resist. Moreover, in the long run, the hule tribe will not lose money in this deal.


    When the old clan leader of hule left, Gao Shilian flashed his eyes and said, "I don''t know the situation of Tuoba chici. Even if he gave the pasture of Tuoba tribe to hule tribe, Tuoba chici didn''t dare to say anything?"


    Merton looked at Gao Shilian and said with a smile, "Lord Gao has come to the school examination again. The boy will make a fool of himself."


    Gao Shilian immediately looked all ears.


    "First of all, your majesty resigned and promoted Tuoba Chi as a marquis for the sake of the credibility of the Tang Dynasty and establishing prestige for all parts of the grassland. If the boy took the initiative to the pasture of Tuoba tribe, wouldn''t your Majesty''s arrangement fall short?" Morton said proudly.


    Gao Shilian nodded.


    "Second, although the grassland departments are nominally attached to the Tang Dynasty, they are actually like a separate regime. The Tang Dynasty has weak control over them and can only take the method of containment. How can we sit back and watch a tribe grow bigger? If the hule tribe gets the territory of the Tuoba tribe, it will not be the second tribe, which is not in line with the interests of the Tang Dynasty." Merton said.


    Gao Shilian suddenly said, "so you are on the grassland, giving preferential treatment to small and medium-sized tribes and limiting large tribes."


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, although the boy allows each tribe to buy pastures, in fact, the territory boys of each tribe have planned for them. In the future, on the grassland, each tribe will become richer and richer, and there will be many strong powers, but the strength gap between each tribe will be infinitely narrowed, and there will never be a tribe that can threaten Datang."


    Merton said, stretched out his hand, and a map of various tribes with dense words appeared impressively in front of Gao Shilian.


    When Gao Shilian saw the map of Qinghai tribe, he immediately flashed his eyes and said, "the method of offering wine with ink is better than thousands of troops and horses. The land of Qinghai is determined!"


    "Take one step and look at three steps. The Mohist is worthy of being the generation of countless talented people who press Chang''an city. The eldest grandson Chong really lost well." Gao Shilian sighed in his heart.

 Chapter 594

    Merton and Gao Shilian discussed again and worked out some methods to limit the overpower of each part of the grassland. An old fox and a little fox looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly felt a sense of sympathy.


    "Young master, Lord Gao! Princess Guanghua has invited you to dinner tonight." tie an suddenly came in and reported some unexpected news to both of them.


    "Guanghua princess!" Gao Shilian frowned and gave a meal.


    Merton didn''t notice Gao Shilian''s abnormal appearance, but his eyebrows were locked. The purpose of Guanghua princess was naturally clear to them. It was obviously for Murong Shun''s Tuyuhun throne.


    If Murong Shun invited them, they probably wouldn''t even pay attention, but the Guanghua princess, who has suffered all her life for the people of the Central Plains, naturally couldn''t ignore them.


    After pondering for a while, Gao Shilian nodded and said, "tell the messenger that I and mohou will arrive on time."


    In the Hulun tribe, a huge felt tent was erected high. When night fell, the lights inside and outside the felt tent were bright and luxurious.


    Although leader Hulun is the host, he is not even qualified to attend the banquet tonight. His only task is to lead Merton and Gao Shilian to the place of the banquet.


    "Lord Gao, I''ll be fine after 40 years of absence!" outside the banquet, Princess Guanghua, dressed in palace clothes, slowly got up and condescended to salute Gao Shilian.


    "Forty years have passed, you and I are old!" Gao Shilian also sighed.


    Merton suddenly opened his eyes. He never thought that Princess Guanghua and Gao Shilian knew each other. However, when Gao Shilian was in the Sui Dynasty, he was also a child of the Guanlong aristocratic family, and Princess Guanghua was a child of the imperial family in the Sui Dynasty. They were similar in age and had a great possibility of knowing each other.


    Thinking of this, Merton couldn''t help looking at Murong Shun aside. He was relieved to see Murong Shun''s face with a little Hu blood.


    Murong Shun was like a dog in the sun, but he forced it down with his forbearance and arched his hand at Merton in embarrassment.


    Princess Guanghua looked at Merton and said with a gentle smile, "this is the second time Guanghua and mohou met. The first time is that Guanghua has eyes and doesn''t know Mount Tai. I didn''t expect that such an amazing young man would appear in Chang''an City after 40 years."


    "Princess Guanghua is flattered!" Morton said modestly.


    "I''m not flattered at all! I saw a lot of young talents who were unrivalled in Chang''an City in those years. Unfortunately, most of them are mediocre now, more of them are poor in their lives, and their achievements are not as good as those of mohou at the moment." Princess Guanghua said Shuanglang.


    Gao Shilian on one side suddenly turned red. I''m afraid there was also his figure in Princess Guanghua''s arrogant young talent.


    As soon as Princess Guanghua waved her hand, one by one Tuyuhun girls brought plates of rich grassland food to the four people.


    "Please sit down. There are no outsiders today. This palace has been away from Chang''an for many years. Now it''s very kind to hear your local accent." Princess Guanghua sighed.


    Gao Shilian was silent and said, "now the brick road from Tuyuhun to Chang''an City has been repaired. If the princess wants to go back to Chang''an City, it is also very convenient. I Believe Her Highness Princess Yang will be very happy."


    Concubine Yang is the biological mother of King Li Ke of Wu and a princess of the Sui Dynasty, but her generation is one generation lower than that of Princess Guanghua.


    "I''ve heard a lot about the brick road and four-wheel carriage of marquis mo. unfortunately, if Marquis Mo had been born 40 years earlier, Yang Guang wouldn''t have tossed such a big country." Princess Guanghua said.


    Yang Guang''s biggest complaint is the construction of the Grand Canal. If the brick road is born ahead of time, I''m afraid Yang Guang''s human, material and financial resources used to build the Grand Canal will be more than enough to repair the brick roads in all counties of the Tang Dynasty.


    As for why Princess Yang guangguanghua naturally talked about it, Merton and Gao Shilian had to remain silent.


    "I can''t go back, I can''t go back any more." Princess Guanghua shook her head and sighed. Since the death of the Sui Dynasty, Chang''an City has no place for him as a princess of the fallen country. Even if he goes back, it is just touching the scenery.


    "Come on, you can drink a cup of Tuyuhun''s special horse milk wine. Although it can''t solve thousands of worries, it''s also a different taste. The palace relies on this wine to sleep countless times at night." Princess Guanghua picked up the wine cup in front of her and drank it, which was very forthright.


    Gao Shilian sighed and drank it without hesitation.


    Merton had to try his best to accompany each other. From a few words, it can be found that Princess Guanghua must have been a forthright girl, not the image of the dignified Tuyuhun kedun who met for the first time.


    Gao Shilian and Princess Guanghua drank one after another and talked about the black materials of young talents in Chang''an City, even Yang Guang''s many embarrassing stories.


    Gao Shilian was telling about the changes in Chang''an city. Princess Guanghua cooperated with a burst of sobs. The whole banquet could be said that the guests and hosts enjoyed each other until Princess Guanghua put down her glass and asked, "now you two are Tuyuhun''s real people. My palace just wants to ask how Chang''an city plans to deal with our orphans and widows. Please give me a correct answer whether to kill or cut."


    Gao Shilian''s face sank and said, "for so many years, you still have such a temperament. Now Chang''an city''s energy is in the flood in Shandong, and there is no time to take into account the Tuyuhun matter for the time being."


    Princess Guanghua sneered: "you want to get enough wealth from me Tuyuhun to make up for the deficit of the imperial court. Your people in the Tang Dynasty are the people, but my people in Tuyuhun are not!"


    Gao Shilian suddenly concluded.


    Merton said in a deep voice: "I didn''t force the people of Tuyuhun. On the contrary, the days of the people of Tuyuhun will certainly be better and better from now on."


    Princess Guanghua waved her hand and said, "what Marquis Mo has done is in the eyes of the palace. Some cattle and sheep are not in the eyes of the palace. As long as the two shun''er inherit the throne, the palace can even take the initiative to cooperate with Marquis Mo and directly make up the remaining deficit."


    Gao Shilian''s face changed and said, "you are still attached to power. If you hadn''t insisted on it at the beginning, how could you end up today."


    Princess Guanghua was immediately silent and said for a long time: "Guanghua has not regretted the original choice! If I do it again, maybe I will choose it again."


    Merton shouted in his heart, and the fire of gossip was burning.


    "As long as Shuner inherits the throne, from then on, Datang and Tuyuhun will be friends forever, and will defend western Xinjiang for the Datang generation for generations. There will be no war between the two countries." Princess Guanghua said proudly.


    "Please give me a hand and I will repay you in the future." Murong Shun got up and bowed to Gao Shilian and Merton.


    Gao Shilian''s face was green and silent. Merton looked at Princess Guanghua and Murong Shun and sighed: "can the princess listen to a word from Mo?"


    Princess Guanghua solemnly nodded her head and said, "the great name of Mohism, Guanghua is also well-known. It''s an honor for Guanghua to hear the good words of the great sages of Mohism."


    Merton solemnly said, "in Mozi''s secret book, there was a very interesting thing. Once there was a rich man who was stupid and ignorant. Once, when he went to another rich man''s house, he saw a three story building, which was tall, big and magnificent. He was very envious. He immediately called the carpenter and said: you can build me a building like that.


    So the carpenter began to measure the foundation, stack bricks and build a building. The rich man said, "I don''t want the lower two floors, you can only build the top floor for me." the carpenter replied, "no such thing! How can anyone build a second floor without building the lowest floor? How can we talk about building a third floor without building a second floor?"


    The stupid rich man stubbornly said, "I just don''t want the next two floors. You must build the top floor for me!" when other people heard about it, they laughed at him and called it a castle in the air. "


    "Castles in the air!" Gao Shilian couldn''t help thinking. He looked at Murong Shun and shook his head.


    Merton sighed: "the princess sacrificed a lot for the people all over the world. Mo said frankly. Although Prince Shun has an orthodox status, this is a barbarian place. It has no tribe and no tribe to take refuge in. It''s like a pavilion in the air. It can''t be built at all."


    Princess Guanghua''s face was blue with iron. After a long time, she said, "that''s why the palace asked Datang for help. Even if Murong Shun only became king Tuyuhun for one day, his life will be worth it. After his death, only his son will inherit the throne. As long as the throne is in the hands of future generations, even the greatest sacrifice is worth it."


    Murong Shun understood the meaning. His face changed and he nodded firmly. He endured it for 15 years. Now he is closest to that position. He won''t give up even if he takes a big risk.


    "You Yang family are a group of madmen!" Gao Shilian shouted.

 Chapter 595

    Merton couldn''t help looking at Princess Guanghua and Murong Shun with emotion. They didn''t know their strength and the risks, but they still rushed to the seat like moths to the fire.


    "If you agree, I can guarantee the prosperity of your mother and son in the Tang Dynasty," Gao Shilian urged.


    Princess Guanghua shook her head and said with a ferocious face: "if the palace wanted to enjoy prosperity, it would not have left Chang''an City and came to Tuyuhun, a barbarian place."


    For today''s day, Princess Guanghua has paid too much. How can she retreat because of the words of Gao Shilian and Merton? Even though he knows that Murong Shun''s throne is like a castle in the air, he is still willing to take this risk.


    The dinner party broke up unhappily. Gao Shilian angrily walked out of the felt tent. Merton had to arch his hand at Princess Guanghua and get up to follow her away.


    "Mother! These two are smart people. I''m afraid they can''t be effective today!" Murong Shun was offended.


    The ferocity of Princess Guanghua''s face slowly disappeared, restored her solemn face, and calmly said, "looking at her mother''s face, Gao Shilian will not become an obstacle for us, but the real obstacle is the young Tang general."


    "Mo Jia Zi!" Murong Shun frowned.


    Princess Guanghua nodded and said, "the world is unified and loves non aggression. Today''s Mohist school makes the palace a little confused. However, this person''s talented mother did not exaggerate. Even if so many young talents in Chang''an City were competing with him like a firefly and bright moon, God bless Datang."


    Murong Shun immediately felt a little dissatisfied.


    Princess Guanghua said coldly, "this is just a short period of time. This person has gathered so many tribal hearts. If his mother doesn''t come forward today, I''m afraid the whole Tuyuhun will soon be taken back by the Tang Dynasty, and there will be no place for you, my mother and son."


    Murong Shun could not help but flash a trace of fear in his eyes. He was cold at the thought of the endless means of Mohists.


    "Send an order to King Xuan to let him be the prime minister, so that he can appease the large tribes and not buy pastures from Datang." Princess Guanghua thought.


    Murong Shun frowned and said, "but king Xuan has always been loyal to his father. He must resent me. Will you listen to us?"


    "If Tuyuhun can''t restore the country, he declares that the king is just a tribal leader. Only Tuyuhun can restore the country, he can have power. He won''t understand this truth." Princess Guanghua sneered.


    "Yes!" Murong Shun nodded.


    "The Mohist school is right. If you forcibly ascend the throne, it will be almost like a castle in the air, but as long as you balance the Tang Dynasty and the tribes, you don''t have no chance." Princess Guanghua said.


    "What if there is a conflict between the Tang Dynasty and the tribe?" Murong Shun asked.


    Princess Guanghua said without hesitation: "if you fall to Datang and offend the tribe, you can still enjoy glory and wealth even if you lose your position. If you offend Datang, even any tribe dare not take you in."


    Murongshun was unwilling for a while. Finally, he had no choice but to say, "I understand!"


    Not to mention the dialogue between Princess Guanghua and her son, Gao Shilian and Merton walked out of the felt tent and there was a silence on the road.


    "Ask what you want! Don''t be so sneaky." Gao Shilian looked at Merton angrily.


    Merton said with a smile, "Princess Guanghua must have been a man of the moment in Chang''an city!"


    Gao Shilian couldn''t help but fall into memories and murmured, "at that time, the Guanghua princess was beautiful and generous and cheerful. People who wanted to pursue him could be said to row from the rosefinch gate to the Nancheng gate. Of course, I was no exception."


    "Then why did she go and kiss Tuyuhun?" Merton didn''t understand.


    "First, her background is low. Second, her character is too strong. In addition, a series of things have happened, which finally led to the road of reconciliation. Unfortunately, I didn''t have your talent and courage, otherwise I wouldn''t have happened today." Gao Shilian sighed.


    His initial favor for Merton was probably that a young man was impassioned in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, shouting no marriage, no compensation, no land cutting, no tribute, the city guarded the country, and the king died..


    If he had cheered, Princess Guanghua might not have today''s ending.


    "Lord Gao can''t see murongshun''s situation. He''s afraid of being forced to that position. I''m afraid he can''t sit stably!" Merton flashed in his eyes.


    "The Yang family''s pursuit of power is deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Even if they know there are risks, they will not give up." Gao Shilian snorted coldly. And he is also familiar with the character of Princess Guanghua. The more he blocks Princess Guanghua, the more determined he is.


    "I''m afraid it''s not so convenient to get cattle and sheep from Tuyuhun in the future." Gao Shilian sighed.


    "How much has Lord Gao raised for disaster relief?" Merton suddenly asked.


    Gao Shilian suddenly had a meal. His eyes twinkled in the dark and said, "almost 50% of it!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief, carefully calculated and said, "today, it seems that we can''t catch Tuyuhun, a sheep, and pull up the wool hard. However, the departments of Dangxiang and Xiqiang can still get a batch of cattle and sheep. It should make up 80%, plus the salt of Chaka salt lake, it should be close!"


    Gao Shilian hesitated and said, "in that case, we can report to the court to see how the imperial court resettled Tuyuhun and Murong Shun."


    Merton nodded.


    Without a word overnight, the next day, all the tribes who came to buy pastures disappeared. Merton and Gao Shilian had expected this, which was not surprising.


    "You have to think about it. Since you are not willing to buy pasture, each tribe needs to pay 10 horses, 10 cattle and 100 sheep as the right of use every year," Merton reminded.


    A group of large tribal leaders immediately focused their attention on Murong Shun in the front. Murong Shun nodded and said, "don''t worry, I Tuyuhun''s departments know the rules of Murong."


    Merton nodded and gave a big drink. Jue Ying immediately ran away.


    This time, when Merton returned to Lanzhou, he also took a detour to the place of Qingtang and took the army to promote his unique Mohist skills. With the leadership of hule tribe and the lack of leaders in all departments of Dangxiang, Merton''s business was very smooth. When Merton returned to Lanzhou, tens of thousands of cattle and sheep followed behind him.


    Then Gao Shilian ordered the army to take a giant magnet and walk around the Western Qiang departments. The Western Qiang departments defected one after another, offering cattle and sheep and buying pastures.


    After delivering the huge orders from Datang merchants, Merton was relieved and finally completed 80% of the task of preparing disaster relief funds.


    As for the remaining 20%, Merton has long had a plan, that is, the salt pool of Chaka Salt Lake. Although the salt storage of Chaerhan Salt Lake is more amazing, Chaerhan Salt Lake is located in the center of Qaidam Basin, with remote terrain and widespread deserts. Now it is not a good time to produce salt.


    When Merton sold his ink skills everywhere, many herdsmen had brought a large amount of lake salt from Chaka Salt Lake to Shanzhou and soon transferred to Lanzhou city.

 Chapter 596

    In Lanzhou City, a huge workshop has begun to take shape. Huge warehouses are filled with cyan lake salt pulled from Chaka Salt Lake


    "This salt is extremely bitter when offering sacrifices to wine in ink. Even cattle and sheep don''t want to eat this salt. Mohou''s salt making method can really turn it into edible salt?" Gao Shilian frowned. As far as he knew, Merton''s salt making method is to purify coarse salt into fine salt, which is not the natural salt stone in the salt lake.


    Merton explained: "Lord Gao, don''t worry. The crystalline salt of Chaka Salt Lake is a natural and superior edible salt. It tastes bitter because it contains more impurities. As long as you remove other things in the salt, these salt like soil in Qinghai will become the most delicious table salt. If further purified, it can even become the best-selling fine salt in Guanzhong.


    "Fine salt!" Gao Shilian was shocked.


    These cyan salts are pulled out of Chaka Salt Lake and are as worthless as soil. If they can be turned into fine salt, their value will soar, and the profit will be astronomical.


    Gao Shilian looked at Merton, who didn''t change his face and his heart didn''t jump. He couldn''t help sighing, that is, Merton, who is a black sheep. How could anyone else be willing to give up these crazy profits.


    "Sir, the new salt you want has been prepared!" the seven grade salt officer of the Ministry of industry sent by the imperial court came to report with a happy face when he saw Merton and Gao Shilian.


    Merton laughed and said, "Lord Gao, if I can''t wait to taste the salt in Qinghai, how does it taste?"


    When they came to the salt workshop, they saw that the cyan salt grains had piled up like a mountain. Obviously, they had stored a lot of new salt.


    Qipin Qingyi salt officer stepped forward quickly, picked out a few small pieces of salt with a tray and handed them to them. Merton reached out and took out a small grain and put it into his mouth. Suddenly, a violent saltiness filled his mouth, as did Gao Shilian.


    "This salt tastes pure, which is a rare top-grade table salt!" Gao Shilian also tasted it, and his eyes brightened. This salt making method is indeed feasible.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction. The taste of this salt is not as good as fine salt, but it has no bitter taste and can be eaten.


    "From then on, there will be no fear of salt shortage in the northwest." Gao Shilian sighed. The lake salt of the important Chaka Salt Lake is everywhere, and the weight is large. The Northwest has always been short of salt. With this salt lake, the salt price of the whole Guanlong land will drop greatly, and countless Guanlong people will benefit from it.


    "Yuncheng has dissolved salt, Mohist has snow salt, sea salt in Shandong and well salt in Sichuan. Now this salt has not been named. Lord Gao is interested in naming this salt!" Merton laughed.


    Gao Shilian nodded, looked at the cyan salt block, and said in his heart, "this salt comes from Qinghai. The salt grain is big and a little cyan. What if it''s called big green salt."


    "Big green salt! It really deserves its name." Merton nodded.


    "Thank you for naming me," said the salt officer in Tsing Yi.


    "What''s the yield of this salt?" Merton asked.


    Qingyi salt officer replied, "this is just running, and the daily output is only 3000 kg. However, as long as there are enough raw materials and enough manpower, the output can be increased several times."


    Merton nodded and said, "then according to the name of Daqing salt, the workshop will produce 70% crude salt and 30% fine salt to supply the whole land of Guanlong."


    "Yes!" the salt officer in Tsing Yi bowed and replied.


    Merton and Gao Shilian watched the production workshop of Daqing salt again, and nodded with satisfaction.


    "Ink sacrificial wine, now salt has been produced, how to sell it." Gao Shilian asked.


    Merton smiled at the speech. Now Daqing salt has just been put into production, and there is not much salt. There is only one way to gather so much wealth in a short time, that is, the salt ticket method.


    In fact, if conditions permit, Merton is more inclined to implement the salt introduction law for thousands of years, I''m afraid he will earn more. However, the salt introduction law can only be promulgated by the imperial court, and the scope of sales is limited. Merton does not have so much power and energy to rectify the salt industry of the whole Tang Dynasty.


    Finally, he came up with the most suitable salt ticket method for Daqing salt.


    "Salt ticket method?" Gao Shilian frowned.


    "Yes, from a young man''s point of view, the price of salt remains high. First, the output of salt is small and the transportation is inconvenient. Second, many salt merchants peel and increase the price from the middle plate, or even shoddy. People spend a lot of money and buy inferior salt." Merton analyzed.


    Gao Shilian nodded deeply, which was the disadvantage of the salt administration of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Now Daqing salt is backed by an almost inexhaustible Salt Lake, and its output will increase sharply. In addition, relying on the smooth brick road, the transportation cost will be greatly reduced. In this way, if you want to make a name for Daqing salt, you are going to set up salt warehouses in various cities along the brick road from Lanzhou to Luoyang. Businessmen don''t have to travel long distances. They just need to take the salt ticket issued by the salt factory and go to the nearest city In the salt warehouse, get the green salt.


    In this way, each salt merchant needs to receive as much as possible, which not only reduces the transportation cost and storage risk, but also avoids the salt merchant hoarding, competition among salt merchants and private price increases. "


    "This is a wonderful method! If it can be popularized, the price of salt will drop greatly, which is a blessing for the people all over the world." Gao Shilian praised the festival.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this side relies too much on brick roads. There is no place for brick roads, so it will be difficult to implement."


    Gao Shilian was not disappointed, but his eyes brightened and said, "when the three horizontal and five vertical plans are completed, it will shine brightly.


    Merton nodded and said, "at present, the output of green salt is limited, and it is difficult for the people on both sides of the brick road from Lanzhou to Luoyang. I''m afraid there is more than enough heart and less strength in any further place!"


    Gao Shilian nodded and said, "now the salt has been made. As long as the last 20% gap is filled, we can return to Chang''an city."


    Merton nodded fiercely. The expedition took him too long.


    "Boom!"


    When Daqing salt and salt ticket law were published in ink journals, salt merchants in Chang''an city immediately caused a sensation.


    In any era, salt is the top priority of people''s life. On the one hand, it is related to the life of thousands of families, on the other hand, it is related to the tax of the imperial court. Salt tax in any dynasty is a small number that can not be ignored.


    There is an important salt producing land in the northwest, which has a great impact on all aspects.


    In particular, Daqing salt is backed by the inexhaustible Chaka Salt Lake and the brick road from Lanzhou to Luoyang. It has huge output and convenient transportation. It can be said that the conditions are unique.


    Some big salt merchants can''t help gnashing their teeth. Merton''s salt ticket method directly broke their monopoly on salt, while some small salt merchants cheered one after another. They were subject to the big salt merchants and their profits were diluted. Now they have the salt ticket method. From now on, they don''t have to be controlled by others. They can pick up goods directly from the nearby salt warehouse and make money easily.


    Everyone knows that selling salt is a business that can make no loss. Once the salt ticket is issued, it is immediately sold out by large and small salt merchants in just a few days, and the last 20% of the disaster relief funds needed by Merton are finally replenished.

 Chapter 597

    Boss Xu is a small salt merchant in the land of Guanlong. On weekdays, he must not only endure the exploitation of the big salt merchant, but also curry favor with the big salt merchant. Otherwise, once the big salt merchant is unhappy and directly cut off the salt, boss Xu''s family can only drink the West and north wind.


    When he heard the news about the big green salt in the ink magazine, he immediately drove the carriage to the county to taste the big green salt. After tasting the big green salt, he immediately took out most of his savings and bought the salt ticket of the big green salt.


    The quality of Daqing salt itself is superior. In addition to the purification technology of Mohist school, it not only tastes good, but also sells well. At first glance, it is known that it is superior table salt and does not worry about sales,


    For some small salt merchants like boss Xu, if they hoard salt, the risk is too great. Just storage is a huge expense. Now they have salt tickets in hand and take salt at any time to minimize their risk. In order to open the market of Daqing salt, Merton has retained enough profits for salt merchants and can not make small and medium-sized salt merchants excited.


    This is the advantage of doing business with mojiazi. It is not only profitable, but also extremely convenient.


    With the sign of Mohist school, small salt merchants like boss Xu have moved one after another to abandon other salt merchants and monopolize Daqing salt.


    With the listing of carts of Daqing salt, Daqing salt with high quality and low price and convenient delivery quickly seized the market. Lanzhou, Tianshui, Chencang and Daqing salt fell one after another along the brick road, and other table salt retreated one after another.


    Especially when the finest fine salt of Daqing salt was transported to Chang''an City, the salt price in Chang''an city immediately fell by 30%.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Many big salt merchants gnash their teeth.


    I''m afraid these big salt merchants have suffered the most heavy losses this time. Before, they hoarded a large amount of salt and their position is as stable as Mount Tai. However, once Daqing salt appears in the market, it is not only better than them, but also cheaper than them. It is convenient to pick up the goods. Many salt merchants directly hit their hands.


    Among the salt merchants, the Taiyuan Wang family suffered the most heavy losses, and almost half of the market in Guanlong land was lost. However, the Taiyuan Wang family was not angry but happy, because although Daqing salt caused them heavy losses, it exposed a flaw in Merton, that is, the method of salt making.


    The Mohists made snow salt with coarse salt, directly seizing half of the fine salt market in Chang''an City, which made the Wang family jealous. Unfortunately, the Mohist village hid the salt making method very tightly, and the Wang family couldn''t get it easily.


    However, in the Daqing salt workshop in Lanzhou City, many salt merchants naturally have opportunities. From the moment when Daqing salt is made, the method of making salt by mojiazi has appeared on the desks of various salt merchants, and the Wang family is no exception.


    Daqing salt is backed by Chaka Salt Lake, and his Wang family also controls Yuncheng Salt Lake. If the Mohist salt making method is obtained, the Wang family''s salt production will increase sharply. What is the loss in front of you?


    Beside Yuncheng Salt Lake! Wang Zhe, who was recalled from the family, looked happy. He had a big fall because of the Mohist snow salt at the beginning. Now his Taiyuan Wang family has obtained the Mohist salt making method and must be ashamed before the snow.


    "Wang Dong! How''s the new salt made?" Wang Zhe asked impatiently.


    Wang Dongnai is the shopkeeper of the salt store in Chang''an city. This time, he made a special trip back to Yuncheng to supervise the manufacture of new salt for the sake of the salt making method of Mohism.


    Wang Dong bowed and said, "master Hui, the craftsmen have just come into contact with Mohist crafts and are still familiar with them. I believe they will be well soon."


    Although Wang Zhe was anxious, he could only bear his temper secretly when he heard Wang Dong say so.


    "Shopkeeper, crystal!" suddenly an old craftsman with gray hair said in surprise.


    Wang Zhe and Wang Dong rushed to the craftsman when they heard the speech. They saw crystal clear salt grains at the bottom of a burning boiler.


    In order to succeed as soon as possible, Wang Zhe uses the fastest method of boiling salt. With a wave of his hand, Wang Zhe withdraws the firewood under the boiler. Wang Zhe can''t wait for the temperature to drop. He can''t wait to knock down a piece of salt from the boiler, cool it and put it in his mouth.


    "Ah, bah!"


    Wang Zhe''s face suddenly twisted and bitter.


    "How could it be so bitter! Could it be the wrong secret recipe!" Wang Zhe roared. This time, they used the salt making method of Mohism. The new salt is still hard to swallow, and the unique bitterness of Yuncheng Salt Lake still lingers.


    Wang Dong couldn''t believe it. He tasted it and spit out the dry salt in his mouth.


    "Impossible! The villain has done this set of craft many times in Lanzhou, and it is impossible to make mistakes." the old craftsman said firmly.


    Wang Dong shook his head and said, "young master, from a small point of view, there is nothing wrong with this set of technology. You see, these salt grains are very pure."


    Wang Zhen calmed down and muttered to himself, "how can the big green salt be so mellow, but my Yuncheng Salt Lake is so different."


    "From a small point of view, I''m afraid the biggest reason is the lake salt. It must be the good quality of Chaka Salt Lake, and our Yuncheng Salt Lake has always been called bitter salt. This method is a method specially tailored by mojiazi for the lake salt of Chaka Salt Lake, which is not necessarily suitable for Yuncheng Salt Lake." Wang Dong said bitterly.


    Although Wang Dong''s remark is a guess, he guessed that Chaka Salt Lake is a natural and superior edible salt. Yuncheng Salt Lake is one of the three largest sodium sulfate salt lakes in the world. Its composition is complex, and it is difficult to separate out other components with the original filtration method, so that even the local edible salt in Yuncheng will be transported from other provinces in future generations.


    "So we''ve been busy for nothing?" Wang Zhe said angrily.


    Wang Dong shook his head and said, "don''t worry, young master. Although we couldn''t make green salt, we found a way to make snow salt."


    Wang Zhen''s eyes lit up and suddenly realized that the snow salt produced in Mojia village was made of Yuncheng crude salt. They must be able to produce a large amount of snow salt by using this recipe.


    "Use this method to make Yuncheng fine salt immediately. I want the snow salt in Mojia village to disappear completely in Chang''an city." Wang Zhe said with a smile.


    The same thing happens in various salt producing areas. Although the method of manufacturing Daqing salt is not suitable for other salt producing areas, it brings a method of purifying fine salt to other salt producing areas.


    Thinking of the profiteering fine salt, many salt producing areas began to make a large number of fine salt.


    A big green salt directly stirred the salt administration of Guanlong land. Not only the folk wind and clouds surged, but also the chaotang was quite concerned. The whole chaotang was relieved until the salt price in Guanzhong land was stable at 80% of the normal price.


    "The Mohist family is really a catfish, and can toss up such big waves everywhere." many courtiers sighed.


    The great storm that Merton tossed around in Tuyuhun had already spread to the whole Chang''an City for the first time. However, as batches of money were pulled into the vassal treasury of the Ministry of the people, the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty had to hold their nose to recognize it for the sake of money

 Chapter 598

    Tai Chi Hall


    "Inform your majesty! The last batch of disaster relief funds have been raised!" Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, reported happily.


    "Congratulations, your majesty!" the ministers of the Tai Chi Hall said with a happy face.


    Li Shimin''s face brightened and he couldn''t help feeling very much. The flood in Shandong was a rare disaster seen by the Tang Dynasty, but it was also the easiest one to get through.


    All this is due to the boy Merton, who is far away in Lanzhou. With the support of huge wealth in Tuyuhun, he can smoothly provide work for relief. He not only solved the problem of disaster relief, but also built hundreds of miles of brick roads.


    "Your Majesty, now that the disaster relief funds have been raised, it''s time to recall the ink sacrifice wine to Chang''an city." Dai Zhou nodded.


    "Of course, I want to recall him. All parts of the northwest play one after another. The boy is holding that giant magnet and scaring people there every day!" Li Shimin said with a smile.


    The ministers couldn''t help laughing. Although a small magnet has added a lot of wealth to the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid those grassland departments would not easily give in without this sharp weapon.


    "In my opinion, this magnet is of great use. Mo boy once used it to make a compass to cross the desert with me. In addition, it is also a sharp weapon for all parts of Jimi grassland. If some barbarian tribes don''t have iron tools, they certainly don''t dare to have two hearts." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.


    Many courtiers nodded slowly. They often rebelled in the northwest and southwest, especially in the southwest. If their iron weapons were collected, even if they had two hearts, they would not be able to turn over any waves,


    In addition, this magnet can also be used to guard the city gate and search forbidden objects. It will certainly have a miraculous effect. For a moment, all officials thought of various uses of magnet.


    "It''s a wonderful thing. I''ll send the order to let the Mohist village build more and try it in the imperial city first." Li Shimin was very excited. With this magnet, the protection in the palace must be increased several times out of thin air.


    "Also, I''ll send orders to those tribes that the Tang Dynasty won''t touch them as long as they are in line with their duties." Li Shimin waved his hand. This time, Merton was tossing around in the northwest to raise money for the imperial court. Of course, Li Shimin will support him.


    "In addition, please have a discussion about Murong Shun''s letter asking for permission for Tuyuhun to restore the country!" Li Shimin suddenly said.


    Tuyuhun has been delayed for too long. It''s time to make a decision now.


    Fang Xuanling is the first of all officials. At present, with a wave, a huge Tuyuhun map appeared in front of all officials. The tribes on it are clearly visible. It is the Tuyuhun tribe map painted by Merton.


    "Your Majesty Hui, Dangxiang, the Western Qiang tribes and Tuyuhun are different nationalities. They should be separated from Tuyuhun and incorporated into our Tang Dynasty." Fang Xuanling pointed to Dangxiang and Western Qiang tribes in Qingtang and Longxi.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. The Western Qiang and Dangxiang are weak, but they can''t hold many tribes. Breaking away from Tuyuhun will greatly damage Tuyuhun''s strength.


    "Chaka Salt Lake is the raw material of Daqing salt, and we can''t give it up," Dai Zhou said firmly. Daqing salt is a steady source of money for the Ministry of civil affairs, which is naturally unwilling to give up.


    "The land of Wuhai has a very high terrain and the climate is very similar to that of Tubo. It is a training place for our Tang Dynasty to guard against Tubo, and we can''t give up." Hou Junji flashed in his eyes.


    He was the Minister of the Ministry of military affairs, and personally entered the land of the Wuhai sea. He personally experienced the severe altitude reaction. Naturally, he would not give up these strategic places.


    All the courtiers immediately scattered Tuyuhun with one word.


    With Merton''s tossing and turning in Tuyuhun, the form of Tuyuhun is now greatly conducive to the Tang Dynasty, but it is much better than in history, and the resistance of the Tang Dynasty to dismember Tuyuhun is greatly reduced.


    "Your Majesty, think twice! If we openly capture Tuyuhun tribe, I''m afraid it will damage your Majesty''s reputation!" Kong Yingda retorted.


    "Yes! I didn''t take an inch of Turkic land in the Tang Dynasty, and all parts of the northwest came to invest. Now the destruction of Tuyuhun country must make all parts of the grassland feel cold." Quan Wanji followed.


    Many civil servants also agreed.


    "It''s pedantic. All the grassland departments are afraid of power and morality. Now the grassland departments get the silage of Mo boy. If they are not restricted, it will be a great disaster if their strength is doubled over time." Cheng Yaojin sneered.


    Quan Wanji retorted, "from the point of view of the micro minister, the Mo wine offering is for the great good of small profits and the danger of raising tigers."


    "When I first collected the money, Lao Cheng didn''t see Lord Quan''s objection." Cheng Yaojin sneered.


    Between civil and military, suddenly fell into an argument, and the court was in chaos.


    "All right, don''t quarrel any more. Tuyuhun must be restricted." Li Shimin said with a stroke. An expedition almost consumed the Treasury of the Tang Dynasty. He didn''t want to do it again.


    "Maybe we can follow the example of the previous dynasty and divide Tuyuhun into two parts." Chang sun Wuji flashed his eyes.


    The ministers moved in their hearts and looked one after another at the eldest sun Wuji.


    "Please see, although the Mo sacrificial wine made a mistake, it successfully divided Tuyuhun into two factions. One is many small and medium-sized tribes who bought pastures, and the other is many large tribes who didn''t buy pastures." Sun Wuji pointed to the clear tribal Road on Tuyuhun''s map.


    Under Merton''s conscious control, most of the tribes buying pastures are located in the east of Qinghai Lake, close to Datang. In order to keep the pastures, these tribes must get the support of Datang, which is very beneficial to Datang.


    "Sun Wuji''s consciousness divides Tuyuhun into two parts according to the distribution of these tribes?" Fang Xuanling immediately led President sun Wuji.


    The eldest sun Wuji nodded and said, "although Murong Shun is the eldest son, he is the former crown prince. His name is not correct and his words are not good. You know, one of the sons of Fu Yun is the most loved by Fu Yun!"


    "Respect the king!" Li Shimin said with a flash in his eyes.


    At the beginning, in order to support the king, Fu Yun asked the Tang Dynasty for peace. How can we not impress everyone? The king was also captured in this war.


    "Yes, the king is loved by Fu Yun. Everyone knows him in Tugu. He must be able to compete with Murong Shun chamber!" said changsun Wuji proudly.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly and thought a little about the cableway: "it''s a decree to appoint Murong Shun as the king of Xiping County and Lu Wugan Dou Khan to command all the departments west of Qinghai Lake. Murong Zunwang was appointed as the king of Dongping county and Wu Di also BA Ledou Khan to command all the departments east of Qinghai Lake and temporarily live in Chang''an city."


    Most of the tribes in the east of Qinghai Lake buy pastures and tend to the Tuyuhun departments of the Tang Dynasty, while Zunwang temporarily lives in Chang''an city. As long as the Tang Dynasty assimilates carefully, these tribes will slowly naturalize the Tang Dynasty.


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    This time, the Minister of civil and military affairs had no objection and said respectfully in unison.


    "Tell your majesty! Murong Shun''s position is not right. I''m afraid the departments east of Qinghai Lake will not accept it. Why don''t your majesty send an elite cavalry to help." changsun Wuji gave Murong shun a drastic pay off and a fatal blow.


    "Sure! I''ll order Li Daliang to command 8000 elite cavalry to help Murong Shun." Li Shimin said without hesitation.

 Chapter 599

    "Murongshun is specially granted as the king of Xiping County! Therefore, LV wugandou Khan...................."


    In the waiting City, in the high tooth tent of Tuyuhun, Gao Shilian stood in the center and read out the edict of Li Shimin as the special envoy of the Tang Dynasty. Merton stood quietly on one side.


    "Thank you for your permission, Murong Shun!"


    Dressed in a purple Python robe, Murong Shun bowed to take the imperial edict and stepped onto the throne in the middle of the dental tent step by step.


    Murong Shun looked at the throne close at hand. How many times had this position been his dream position, but now it was finally about to come true. After many years of suffocation, it was swept away.


    Murong Shun waved his long sleeve and suddenly sat on the throne.


    "See Khan!"


    Under the leadership of King Xuan, a group of tribal leaders bowed and saluted.


    Murong Shun has seen a group of tribal leaders attending Fu Yun with his own eyes. The number is at least twice as much as before. However, it is not the time to worry. From today on, he is the Khan of xituyuhun.


    At the thought of this, he couldn''t help being heroic. Who could have thought that the former crown prince, who had suffered all the white eyes in Fucheng, turned over and was called the Khan Tuyuhun.


    "Ben Khan appointed King Xuan as prime minister, in charge of Tuyuhun''s government affairs, named King......."


    After murongshun''s wanton enfeoffment, all the leaders of Tuyuhun got a big title, and everyone was happy.


    "Report! Tell Khan that the Tibetan special envoy came to offer a congratulatory gift!" a Tuyuhun cavalry suddenly entered the king''s tent and shouted.


    "Special envoy of Tubo?" all the people in the dental tent were silent and couldn''t help looking at Murong Shun at the top.


    Gao Shilian and Merton also frowned. It is obvious that the Tibetan special envoy came here at this sensitive period!


    "Why did Tubo come uninvited?" murongshun was surprised. He didn''t invite Tubo.


    "Tell Khan that he is the special envoy of Tubo invited by Weichen!" I saw King Xuan, who was in the forefront, come out in a loud voice.


    Murongshun heard that King Xuan was good at making suggestions. He frowned and stared at King Xuan coldly.


    However, King Xuan was not afraid to say, "Tubo and Tuyuhun are adjacent. The two countries have had exchanges for many years. Now Khan has succeeded to the throne. It is a tradition for Tubo to come to congratulate."


    Murong Shun looked at King Xuan''s calm face and his anger rose involuntarily. What he was angry about was not the arrival of Tubo, but king Xuan''s own opinion. He even didn''t mention it to him before.


    Murong shungang wanted to get angry. Yu Guang swept Gao Shilian and Merton aside, moved in his heart, forcibly suppressed his anger and said, "today is the day of Ben Khan''s accession to the throne. Visitors are guests. Please!"


    "Yes!" King Xuan bowed in response, and his lowered face involuntarily showed a proud smile.


    "Suddenly, I heard that LV wugandou Khan ascended the throne and came to offer a congratulatory gift under the order of our king Songzanganbu!" with the sound, a familiar figure reflected into Merton''s eyelids.


    "Ludongzan!" Merton was awestruck. He never underestimated the famous man in history. At this sensitive moment, Tubo really couldn''t sit still and sent ludongzan.


    "Tubo is polite!" Murong Shun nodded.


    The sudden accession of Tubo may not be a bad thing for him, but it may be used by him to resist the pressure brought by the Tang Dynasty. The Mexican family ridiculed his position as a castle in the air, which has always bothered him. Now, the sudden accession of Tubo is dissatisfied with him, but it is not an opportunity for him.


    Murong Shun is well versed in the history of the Han Dynasty. Only the three pillars of Tubo, Tuyuhun and the Tang Dynasty can he have more voice.


    Gao Shilian suddenly looked ugly. He was crafty and cunning. Naturally, he knew Murong Shun''s plan to make both ends meet.


    Merton also sighed slightly. Murong Shun thought it was a plan to attract tigers and drive wolves, but he didn''t know that if it would be the biggest mistake he would make in his life, Datang might let Tuyuhun go for fame, but Tubo was bent on annexing Tuyuhun and unifying the Qinghai Tibet Plateau.


    "Lord Gao, mohou, it''s a pleasure to meet you after a few days!" Lu Dongzan greeted Merton and Gao Shilian with a smile.


    "Lu Da Lun! You''re welcome!" Gao Shilian said faintly.


    Da Lun is the title of Prime Minister of Tubo. At the moment, Lu Dongzan has held the position of prime minister in Tubo.


    Lu Dongzan saw Gao Shilian''s cold attitude, but he didn''t feel angry at all. He still watched Murong Shun''s accession ceremony with joy. Even Merton couldn''t help but praise him. He is worthy of being a figure who can spread in the annals of history, and the city government is very deep.


    "Finish!"


    With King Xuan''s loud drink, Murong Shun''s accession ceremony officially ended, and Murong Shun officially succeeded Tuyuhun''s 18th Khan.


    "Lu Da Lun, Lord Gao and mohou came all the way. Ben Khan was very grateful. He had prepared good wine for a long time. It was the best wine in the Tang Dynasty to solve thousands of worries. Mohou should be no stranger!" Murong Shun looked at Merton with a funny face.


    Lu Dongzan''s eyes flashed when he heard the speech. His eyes were slightly undetectable. He looked at Merton and Murong Shun. Suddenly, he suddenly felt in his heart.


    "Ha ha, this is the peerless wine of Mojia village. It''s said that it takes a lot of good horses to get a little in the prairie. Today we have a blessing in the mouth." Lu Dongzan laughed.


    "It''s just a small skill. If you two come to Chang''an city to solve thousands of worries, you can manage them for free!" Merton countered.


    Lu Dongzan and Murong Shun had a hard time remembering Chang''an city. Their hearts are not very beautiful!


    "Come on! Drink, drink!" Lu Dongzan laughed and said.


    Four people take their seats. After three rounds of wine.


    "Congratulations on Khan''s accession to the throne, and I wish Tubo and Tuyuhun a brotherly relationship forever!" Lu Dongzan put down his glass and said sincerely.


    Murong Shun was secretly angry at Lu Dongzan''s obvious provocation, but Tuyuhun had just started, which was really inappropriate to offend the powerful country of Tubo. He had to change the topic awkwardly and said: "it all depends on the trust of Khan, who will remember it."


    Murong Shun is prepared to find both ways between Tubo and Tuyuhun. Naturally, he will not make a statement easily.


    "Prince Xiping deserves all this. I Tang will not treat my own people badly." Gao Shilian punted.


    "By the way, marquis Mo! It''s really sorry to rely on Khan''s pity and authorize Tuyuhun to use silage!" Murong Shun arched his hands to Morton with an apologetic face.


    Merton frowned and turned to look at Gao Shilian.


    Gao Shilian nodded awkwardly and whispered, "the king of Xiping County used the Chaka Salt Lake in exchange for the right to use the unique skills of Mohism. His majesty has mercy on the suffering of Tuyuhun herdsmen."


    Merton is out of temper. What is the suffering of Tuyuhun herdsmen? He doesn''t like the benefits of green salt.


    "Your Majesty''s order, Mo should take orders!" Merton said a little slowly.


    "Thank you, Hou Chengquan!"


    Murong Shun was secretly proud. What he needed most at the moment was the support of a large number of tribes. It was cost-effective to exchange the useless Chaka Salt Lake in his hands for silage. Anyway, there were salt lakes in Tuyuhun, and there was no shortage of salt at all.


    "Mohou''s unique skills benefit the grassland. I''m far away from Tubo. I heard that mohou made a promise to marry a princess. I''m willing to offer thousands of good horses and ten thousand liang of gold in exchange for the right to use the unique skills of Mohism. Please help me!" Lu Dongzan suddenly said, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    Murongshun also couldn''t help but look at ludongzan jealously. Just now at his accession ceremony, ludongzan''s gift was not as good as ludongzan''s bid at the moment.


    Merton was not moved by it, but put down his glass and said, "if I don''t agree, will Tubo abide by Ben Hou''s rules?"


    Lu Dongzan''s face stiffened and said with a dry smile, "it''s difficult for herdsmen to survive on the plateau. Please go to mohou for convenience, and there will be a good reward in the future."


    Ludongzan didn''t directly answer Merton''s question, but the meaning of his words was obvious. Tubo was determined to get these ink skills. If the ink village accepted them, the bride price for marrying the princess would be easy to get. If Merton didn''t know the phase, I''m afraid he didn''t even have them.


    This time, even Gao Shilian calmed down and waited quietly for Merton''s decision. Merton didn''t get a penny here in Tuyuhun, while there were thousands of good horses and ten thousand liang of gold in Tubo.


    "This still needs to consider?" Murong Shun sneered in his heart. As long as he is a normal person, he knows how to choose.


    Even ludongzan has a confident face.


    "I''m sorry to disappoint Lu Da Lun!" Merton shook his head firmly.


    "Ah!"


    They suddenly stared at Merton, and couldn''t believe it. Such a huge fortune was in front of them, but the Mexican family would refuse so neatly.


    Ludong zanton said anxiously, "if mohou is too few, the price is easy to say!"


    Merton shook his head and said: "This is not a matter of price. Since Tian Khan has exempted Tuyuhun''s ink technology use fee, the decision-making power in this matter has been transferred to Tian Khan. If Tubo wants to, he can ask Tian Khan in the above table. Tianke sweat is spread all over the world and has mercy on the common people. Of course, Tubo herdsmen will not suffer. Of course, even if Tubo herdsmen steal it privately, I am young and have little power Not to Tubo. "


    "Mo Hou is joking!" Lu Dongzan said with a bitter smile.


    Lu Dongzan felt bitter in his heart. If he could steal it in private, how could he take out thousands of good horses and ten thousand liang of gold as reward? Datang defeated Turks and Tuyuhun one after another. He is a well deserved overlord. Tubo has not reached its heyday at the moment, so he naturally dare not offend Datang easily.


    However, if it is transferred to Chang''an city at this time, Tubo may not have to pay these money, but more will be lost.


    "Mohou regards money as dung, I admire it!" Murong Shun snorted coldly in his heart, but complimented on his mouth.


    Gao Shilian is full of admiration. The world laments Merton''s black sheep. However, Gao Shilian seems that Merton is the most detached one who regards money. He is not soft when spending. He doesn''t take any money he shouldn''t take. Relying on this wisdom alone, especially his reputation.

 Chapter 600

    After the banquet, Gao Shilian and Merton withdrew.


    "That''s ten thousand liang of gold. Mohou doesn''t regret it?" on the way, Gao Shilian came up to Merton and his eyes flashed.


    After all, these ink skills were invented by Merton. Even if Merton took the money, no one could say anything. However, Merton could stand the temptation and gain more interests and voice for Datang.


    Merton shook his head and said, "there''s no regret. Without my great reputation in the Tang Dynasty, Tubo will send me money eagerly?"


    Gao Shilian nodded, and Merton did understand this.


    "And Lu Dongzan is not kind. Mo is a minister of Tang Dynasty. If he accepts foreign money without permission, it will be a lie." Merton snorted coldly.


    "People''s words are terrible! Ludongzan really has a bad intention." Gao Shilian suddenly realized.


    "Lu Dongzan should not be underestimated. There is someone running for Tubo. Over time, Tubo will become stronger and stronger, which will become a major problem in our Tang Dynasty." Merton said positively.


    Gao Shilian nodded slowly.


    "But now, Changle is almost sixteen. You need to make more preparations for the promised bride price. Fortunately, I am very optimistic about you!" Gao Shilian said happily.


    It has to be said that the Mohists are indeed a good match for Princess Changle, which even Gao Shilian can''t deny.


    "Ah!"


    Merton was surprised and said, "isn''t it enough for the boy to earn so much money for the imperial court?"


    Gao Shilian said with a smile, "public is public, private is private. Besides, with so much money, the imperial court can invest all in disaster relief. It will reward you when you return to the imperial court. However, the little money may not be seen by mohou!"


    The reward from the imperial court is naturally very rich for ordinary people, but it is a drop in the bucket for the bride price promised by Merton.


    Merton immediately felt his scalp itch. In this way, he worked hard for more than half a year and didn''t get anything.


    "I hope your majesty will not be too embarrassed for the sake of the boy''s great efforts!" Merton expected.


    On the second day after murongshun ascended the throne, Merton and Gao Shilian left immediately after they handed over to Li Daliang.


    "Drive!"


    Merton urged the horse, and the shadow under his crotch ran on the boundless grassland. Looking at the withered and yellow grassland, he couldn''t help feeling that this Tuyuhun trip would really end.


    Cars and horses went all the way north and arrived in Lanzhou City in two days.


    "Ink offering wine is ready. Three days later, we will set off for Chang''an city immediately." Gao Shilian ordered Merton at the gate of the city.


    "Yes!"


    Merton nodded. Not only the two of them, but also a considerable number of soldiers returned to Chang''an City this time. The three-day preparation time is very short.


    After seeing Gao Shilian leave, Merton felt his scalp itch. Suddenly, he scratched his scalp involuntarily.


    "What''s the matter, young master?" iron Ann noticed something strange and asked.


    Merton shook his head and said, "go back immediately and find Mo Wu."


    After the western expedition, Mo Wu didn''t go back. After attacking Tuoba tribe, many wounded soldiers were seriously injured. Mo Wu stayed here again to continue diagnosis and treatment.


    It''s a surgical paradise here. In a short period of time, Mo Wu''s medical skills have made great progress. How can he be willing to leave? When the wounded soldiers are almost recovered, Merton is about to return. Mo Wu is ready to go back with Merton.


    "Yes!"


    Iron left in a hurry when he settled down.


    Soon after Merton returned to the firearms prison camp, Mo Wu came in a hurry. After the firearms prison was removed, the children of the Mohists moved in. The camp was not empty, and Merton was used to living and did not move out.


    "What''s the matter, young master?"


    Mo Wu saw Merton sitting there with a sad face, and couldn''t help but panic.


    Merton looked at Mo Wu''s arrival, tried to squeeze out an ugly smile and said, "Xiao Wu, I..."


    Mo Wu suddenly clicked in his heart. Merton is the pillar of Mohism. If there is good or bad, the Mohist village will collapse soon.


    "Young master, what''s the matter? Don''t scare me!" Mo Wu said tremblingly.


    Merton said hard, "young master, I may... Have a head lice!"


    "What?"


    Mo Wu and tie an looked at Merton in surprise.


    "I said, I have head lice!" Merton said, gnashing his teeth.


    "Oh!"


    Mo Wu and tie were relieved when they settled down.


    "What''s the matter? I''m afraid there must be eight long lice among the ten people in the world." tie an said indifferently. He scratched his scalp, grabbed a head lice along his hair, and squeezed it with a snap of his fingernails.


    Merton looked at it and felt a chill. He thought that the same was true of his head, and his heart couldn''t help but respond.


    Mo Wu persuaded: "during the expedition, Tuyuhun is short of water, and our army has many cavalry. There are several officers and men in the whole army who can''t afford head lice, even the general is no exception."


    "Seriously?" Morton said in surprise.


    Mo Wu immediately patted his chest and said, "I won''t say who it is. At least five will lead me to find a boy to treat head lice."


    Merton felt a little better. After all, even the famous Wang Anshi of later generations had head lice, which was recorded in history books. It can be seen how common the head lice of the ancients was. He didn''t believe that the generals who led troops and fought abroad all year round could be better?


    Mo Wu came forward to check carefully and affirmed: "young master, there are indeed head lice on his head, but he should have just been infected. There are only a few insect eggs at the root of his hair. Young master, don''t worry. Xiao Wu specially prepared liquid medicine for young master. It won''t take more than one month to completely eliminate head lice.


    "January?" Merton almost didn''t jump up. He couldn''t stand another day.


    Mo Wuwei said: "young master, this is the fastest time. If it was put in the past, it would not be cured in two months."


    "No, it must be cured before returning to Chang''an city." Merton said firmly.


    Mo Wu immediately looked embarrassed: "that little five really has no way."


    "No, there''s another way! You can completely eradicate the head lice in the shortest time," Merton said suddenly.


    "Really?" Mo Wu said with a happy face. You know, in this era, lice on the head is a very common thing. If you can really eradicate lice one day, it will be no less than the discovery of the effect of treating night blindness.


    Merton looked at Mo Wu meaningfully and said, "have you ever heard of and still grow lice?"


    "Ah! Young master won''t be a monk!" tie an looked at Merton with a shocked face.


    "Get out!" Merton said angrily.


    Mo Wu understood Merton''s meaning in an instant and couldn''t help but applaud: "the head lice depends on hiding between the hair, and the larvae grasp the hair root. If there is no hair, the head lice must have nowhere to hide. The larvae lose the living soil and can cure the head lice at no cost. This method is wonderful."


    "No, young master, this is Kun type!" tie an was surprised. Kun type is a criminal law of all dynasties. The ancients regarded hair as life and thought that continuous growth of hair is the continuation of life. Cutting hair is a great shame and harm.


    Merton scoffed. In later generations, hair cutting is a common thing. Merton has no burden at all. Moreover, he has long wanted to restore the lightweight short hair style of later generations.


    Mo Wu also woke up and said, "it''s not advisable to be hurt by your parents. It''s the beginning of filial piety!"


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "this is the saying of Confucianism. We are Mohism. Does Mohism stipulate that we can''t cut our hair?"


    Mo paused and said, "that''s not true?"


    "Or do I really lose my life when I cut my hair?" Merton asked again.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "of course not!"


    Mo Wuxue is a doctor. Naturally, he knows that this statement is false.


    Merton proudly said, "the people all over the world are suffering from head lice. Just because you have these bad habits, there is no cure for them. Now my young master sets an example for the people all over the world."


    "Young master is worthy of being the leader of Mohism and dares to be the first in the world." tie an worshipped.


    "What are you waiting for? Go and find me the best barber in Lanzhou." Merton waved his hand.


    "Yes!" tiean answered immediately and ran out immediately! "


    Mo Wu opened his mouth and finally didn''t persuade. Looking at Merton''s firm face, he wisely closed his mouth.

 Chapter 601

    (one day yesterday, Calvin felt that it was very low for the protagonist to catch head lice. Although that was the most likely thing, after all, the army had been on an expedition for thousands of miles and was very short of water. I''m afraid Li Jing could not help being with war horses all day.


    Seeing everyone''s comments, I still make some changes to let other Mohist children catch it. Merton sets an example and gives his hair to completely eliminate parasites. The following words are free. The previous chapter will be revised later.)


    Cars and horses went all the way north and arrived in Lanzhou City in two days.


    "Ink offering wine is ready. Three days later, we will set off for Chang''an city immediately." Gao Shilian ordered Merton at the gate of the city.


    "Yes!"


    Merton nodded. Not only the two of them, but also a considerable number of soldiers returned to Chang''an City this time. The three-day preparation time is very short.


    After seeing off Gao Shilian, Merton waved his big hand and was ready to return to the camp immediately! After the firearms warden was removed, Merton was used to living. Without moving away, he let the Mohist children move in, and the camp was not empty.


    One side of Tie''an suddenly felt itchy on her scalp, her body was in shape, involuntarily scratched her scalp and suddenly stopped there.


    "What''s wrong with tiean?" Merton noticed the abnormality and turned his head and asked.


    Tiean immediately felt like a frightened deer and hurried away from Merton by a foot.


    "What''s going on?" Merton shouted angrily.


    Tie''an said bitterly, "young master, you''d better stay away from Tie''an. I''m afraid the villain has got into head lice. If it is infected to young master, it will be bad."


    "Head lice!" Merton was stunned. This parasite has only been heard in the dormitories of pets and datongpu. Adults have disappeared.


    Tie an was sad and nodded fiercely.


    Merton shook his head and said, "go back first and find me Mo Wu first."


    After the western expedition, Mo Wu didn''t go back. After attacking Tuoba tribe, many wounded soldiers were seriously injured. Mo Wu stayed here again to continue diagnosis and treatment.


    It''s a paradise for surgery here. In a short period of time, Mo Wu''s medical skills have made great progress. How can he be willing to leave? When the wounded soldiers are almost recovered, Merton is about to return. Mo Wu is ready to go back with Merton and sort out his surgical experience by the way, which has been left until now.


    Soon after Merton returned to the firearms prison camp, Mo Wu came in a hurry.


    "Head lice!" Mo Wu came in a hurry. After hearing the description of tie an in the corner, he couldn''t help but breathe a heavy sigh of relief.


    "What''s the matter? I''m afraid there must be eight lice among the ten people in the world. Besides, you haven''t grown before!" Mo Wu uncovers tie an''s old story impolitely.


    When tie settled down, his face turned red and angrily scolded Mo Wu, who was holding a smile: "you were not much better before. Besides, we are the children of Mohism. Mohist village is the first village in the world. If others know that we have head lice, wouldn''t we laugh off our big teeth!"


    When tiean mentioned Mohism and Mohism village, he looked proud and obviously proud.


    Mo Wuyi''s face turned black when tie an exposed his old background. I''m afraid everyone was in the same situation when the Mojia village was poor.


    "And now I''m far away in Lanzhou city. It doesn''t matter if I suffer a little. It''s a big deal to infect the young master." tie an said wrongly on his face.


    Mo Wu took it seriously, nodded, came forward to carefully check tie an''s hair, nodded and said, "your head is really a head lice, but it should be that you have just caught it, and there are only a few insect eggs at the root of your hair."


    Tie an felt better and suddenly said, "by the way, the small ones are diligent. I''m afraid other Mohist children are not much better?


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "call all the Mohist children to check them one by one."


    Soon, a group of Mohist children came one after another. It was found that except for a few people, almost all other Mohist children had head lice in varying degrees.


    "So much?" Merton said in surprise.


    Mo Wu explained: "during the expedition, Tuyuhun was short of water, our army had many cavalry, and there was too much contact between people and animals. Several officers and men of the whole army were not allowed to have head lice, even the general."


    When the Mohist children become rich, I''m afraid they are the most clean rural people in the Tang Dynasty. In contrast, in other villages


    "Seriously?" Merton was also surprised. He didn''t expect that head lice in the army were so common.


    Mo Wu immediately patted his chest and promised, "Xiao Wu won''t say who it is. At least five will lead him to find a boy to treat head lice."


    Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect that even the general could not be spared.


    "Don''t worry, young master. Xiao Wu specially prepares liquid medicine for Tie''an. As long as he often washes his hair and cooks his clothes in boiling water, he can completely eliminate head lice within one month."


    "A month?" tie an almost didn''t jump up. He couldn''t stand another day.


    "This is the fastest time. If it were put in the past, it would not be cured in two months," Mo Wu said.


    "No, this head lice must be eliminated before returning to Chang''an City, and can''t be brought back to Mojia village." Merton firmly said that after these Mojia children return to Mojia village, they will contact their families again. Once the infection spreads, it will take several times more effort to completely cure it, and it may not be effective.


    Mo Wu immediately looked embarrassed: "that little five really has no way."


    "No, there''s another way! You can completely eradicate the head lice in the shortest time," Merton said suddenly.


    "Really?" Mo Wu said with a happy face. You know, in this era, lice on the head is a very common thing. If you can really eradicate head lice one day, it will be no less beneficial to doctors than finding the effect of treating night blindness.


    Merton looked at Tie''an meaningfully and said, "have you ever heard of lice?"


    "Ah! Young master, you don''t want a small monk! A small one doesn''t look like a vegetarian every day!" Tie''an looked at Merton with a shocked face and shook his head. It''s not easy for Mojia village to live a good life. He doesn''t want to live a life of pure heart and few desires


    "You know how to eat!" Merton scolded angrily.


    Mo Wu understood Merton''s meaning in an instant and couldn''t help but applaud: "young master''s meaning is that the head lice hide between the hair and the larvae grasp the hair root. If there is no hair, the head lice must have nowhere to hide. The larvae lose the living soil and can cure the head lice without a penny. This method is wonderful."


    "No, young master, this is Kun type!" tie an was surprised. Kun type is a criminal law of all dynasties. The ancients regarded hair as life and thought that continuous growth of hair is the continuation of life. Cutting hair is a great shame and psychological harm.


    Mo Wu also woke up and said, "it''s not advisable to be hurt by your parents. It''s the beginning of filial piety!"


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "this is the saying of Confucianism. We are Mohism. Does Mohism stipulate that we can''t cut our hair?"


    Mo paused and said, "that''s not true?"


    "Or does a haircut really shorten your life?" Merton asked again.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "of course not!"


    Mo Wu is a doctor. Naturally, he knows that this statement is not advisable. "


    "It''s just... But..." tie an and a group of Mohist children hesitated for a while. They would rather endure scalp itching than let Mohist children''s problems.


    "Don''t worry, it''s not to let you cut your hair all the time. When the head lice are removed, you can naturally keep it longer.


    "Oh!" tie an was a little relieved.


    "What are you waiting for? Go and find me the best barber in Lanzhou." Merton waved his hand.


    "Barber?" iron Ann didn''t understand.


    "It''s the shaver," Merton said angrily.


    "Oh!" tie an suddenly realized and ran out reluctantly. "


    Mo Wu opened his mouth and finally didn''t persuade. Looking at Merton''s firm face, he wisely closed his mouth.


    To eradicate head lice, besides shaving off the hair is the most effective way, there is also the need to boil all the clothes in boiling water and completely kill the insect eggs.


    The camp of the firearm prison was originally in the middle of the military camp. When the Mohist children set up more than a dozen pots and kept putting their clothes into the boiling water, the whole military camp was disturbed.


    "Is the Mohist family hungry? They put all their clothes into the pot to cook." many major generals came to watch. After a while, the camp was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.


    "It is said that many Mohist children are infected with head lice. The Mohist is furious and asks everyone to eradicate the head lice before returning to the Mohist village. I''m afraid the Mohist is removing the head lice." a well-informed soldier shouted.


    "What''s a head lice? I have a lot of them, and only these Mohist children are fake clean!" a sloppy veteran carelessly grabbed a head lice from his head, put it in his mouth and bit it.


    "Yes!" many people agreed. When the army entered Tuyuhun, most of the soldiers were infected with head lice, and there were few survivors. Everyone was the same, so it''s no wonder.


    "Besides, they can cook their clothes and their heads. Even if they clean them this time, I''m afraid they''ll catch it again soon. What''s the use?" the sloppy veteran said carelessly.


    With the head lice, the itch was unbearable. Most soldiers didn''t expect to get rid of the head lice. However, it didn''t take long for them to catch it again. Over time, people let it go.


    "You don''t know that! It''s said that the MOH family has found a good way to completely eradicate head lice in one day." the well-informed soldier expected just now.


    "What?"


    The soldiers exclaimed that the harm of head lice was a stubborn disease. Although they were used to it, they hated it for a long time. At this moment, they suddenly heard that mojiazi could completely eradicate head lice.


    Iron Ann put her clothes into the boiling pot with a wronged face. Hearing the words of a group of soldiers, she couldn''t help humming: "the method is there. I''m afraid you don''t dare to use it."


    The sloppy old soldier was furious when he heard the speech and said, "young people dare to look down on me. I have fought in the battlefield for 20 years and killed hundreds of enemies. As long as I can cure my head lice, I dare to go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire."


    "Well, I''ll see if you dare." tie an continued to stimulate.


    "Who dares? Who is the grandson!" roared the sloppy veteran.


    Tie''an''s plan succeeded, leaving a group of veterans glaring at each other and leaving with their heads raised.


    The ancients did not cut their hair, but mostly minor trimming and trimming. The word haircut first appeared in the Tang Dynasty. In this era, there were also craftsmen who specialized in hairdressing, shaving and shaving.


    When Ji Bo, the most famous barber in Lanzhou, appeared in front of the crowd, the whole military camp was boiling.


    "Cut off your hair!"


    After learning the Mohist method, countless soldiers were in an uproar, and the sloppy veteran who had bet with tie an was stunned. He didn''t expect that this was the Mohist method.


    These veterans are not afraid of fighting on the battlefield. However, when they hear that they want to cut off their hair, they can''t help retreating one after another.


    "The bald man has lice on his head - obviously, he doesn''t even have hair. Can he still grow lice? Have you seen and still grow lice?" tie anling snorted, looked at the sloppy veteran provocatively, and immediately stopped the sloppy veteran''s step back.


    "I don''t believe you dare to cut your hair. If you dare to cut it, I dare to cut it." the sloppy veteran said fiercely.


    Other soldiers also blinked in their eyes. To tell the truth, they really didn''t expect that this method of mojiazi was the most effective, but it was too unacceptable.


    "Who will come first!" the hale and hearty Ji Bo grinned.


    Suddenly, all the Mohist children looked at each other. Even tie an, who had been careless just now, couldn''t help but step back. What he just said was grand. When it was his turn, his heart couldn''t help shrinking.


    Ji Bo advised, "head lice is not a small thing. If they are allowed to spread, they will hurt their hair and become bald over time."


    "Bald man!" tie an was also startled.


    Mo Wu also advised: "head lice is a parasite, which can suck blood and spread diseases. It can be cured as soon as possible."


    However, despite Mo Wu and Ji Bo''s persuasion, tie an and all the Mohist children shook their heads.


    "Cut it for Ben Hou first!"


    When Merton sat in front of the barber, there was an uproar.


    "Young master, no, you haven''t caught head lice!" Mo Wu and tie an urged.


    "Young master, I''ll cut it. I''ll cut it now." tie an said tragically.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the people all over the world have to suffer from head lice. Just because you have such bad habits, there is no cure for them. Even the Mohists are like this. Not to mention the people all over the world. Now my young master sets an example for the people all over the world and will let the world get rid of the disease of head lice."


    "The young master is worthy of being the leader of the Mohist School and dares to be the first in the world." the sloppy veteran worshipped on his face.


    Tie an and a group of Mohist children couldn''t help staring at the sloppy veteran. He wasn''t the one who cut his hair.


    "Ji Bo, cut it for me first." Merton smiled at Ji Bo Wen and.


    "Mohou is a villain, but he doesn''t dare!" Ji Bo felt his legs a little soft. He thought he had taken a big job, but who could have thought he had taken a hot potato.


    Merton said faintly, "after Ji Bo cut Ben Hou''s hair, he must be famous. He won''t make progress every day in the future."


    As soon as Ji Bo heard this, the knife bar in his hand immediately clenched three points.


    "And Ben Hou is not shaved. You can cut your hair according to the hairstyle in this picture," said Merton, handing a charcoal stroke to Ji Bo.


    Ji Bo took a look at the four simple self portraits of Merton on the rice paper. They are the front, back, left and right sides of Merton. Moreover, the hair of each self portrait is very short, only inches, and the shape is unique.


    If anyone sees this painting in future generations, he will exclaim loudly. Isn''t this the most common flat head in future generations?


    "I wonder if mohou can give this painting to the villain! The villain is very interested in this hairstyle." Ji Bo''s eyes turned. For the paintings of Mohist school, they are worth thousands of gold. They have long been famous in the Tang Dynasty. How could Ji bo be indifferent? Moreover, this is Merton''s self portrait, and its price must be incalculable.


    "As long as you cut our hair, this picture will be yours." Merton said indifferently.


    Ji Bo was so happy when he heard the speech that he said, "Mo Hou is good, and the villain promises to satisfy you."


    I saw Ji Bo''s hands shaking and the flying of scissors. In full view of the public, Merton''s black hair fell. Soon, the most common flat head in later generations appeared in front of everyone.


    "Mohou, what do you think?" Ji Bo put a bronze mirror in front of Merton.


    Merton looked at the familiar short hair on his head. Now he kept a flat head and put on a T-shirt. It was almost no different from later generations. Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling rushed into his heart and couldn''t help feeling very much.


    "Mo Hou!"


    "Young master!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people around, seeing Merton staring at the bronze mirror, couldn''t help calling.


    Merton woke up with a start and nodded, "Ben Hou is very satisfied."


    Merton got up slowly and walked around in front of the crowd calmly.


    Tiean and others saw Merton''s flat head and suddenly felt that the original short hair was not so ugly.


    "Young master, this is your broken hair!" a Mohist boy diligently collected Merton''s broken hair and prepared to put it away.


    Merton reached for it and put the broken hair directly on the fire. He saw the black hair burning violently.


    "Mo Hou!" everyone said with a worried face.


    The soldiers also worried that hair was the continuation of life. The ancients generally collected their cut hair, but Merton burned it directly.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "in Ben Hou''s opinion, hair is like nails. It''s not painful or itchy. If you cut it when it grows, it won''t have any bad effect."


    Mo Wu and other doctors'' children who heard the news nodded one after another. Doctors can''t agree with this view.


    Now that Merton has taken the lead in cutting his hair, tiean and other Mozi children soon cut it, whether they like it or not.


    Even a few Mohist children who didn''t catch head lice saw Merton cut, and they also cut with the crowd. Although a large number of flat headed brothers suddenly appeared in the camp.


    "By the way, Mo Wu, although you follow old Chinese to study medicine, you can also be regarded as a child of Mohism!" tie an suddenly pointed the spear at Mo Wu, who covered his mouth and smiled.


    Mo Wu was stunned, waved his hand and said, "young master, I didn''t catch head lice!"


    Tie an sneered and said, "the young master has not been infected. In order to take the lead in eradicating the head lice, he is not cut. Besides, seeing a doctor and treating people is a doctor''s job. I can''t let the Mohist do it all!"


    Mo Wu suddenly concluded.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "if the doctor''s parents don''t even have the courage to talk about medical ethics, if you don''t take the lead, how can you make the patient believe you, so that the head lice can be cured."


    Mo Wu was stunned when he heard the speech and nodded silently: "what the young master said is that this is the responsibility of doctors. Xiao Wu now studies medicine. Naturally, he should set an example."


    Mo Wu turned his head and said to Lang, the son of many doctors: "It is the duty of doctors to heal the wounded and save the world. Countless poor people in the world are infected with head lice and suffer from it. You have also seen that this method can cure head lice without paying a penny. Today, as a child of doctors, I''m here to cut my hair in public and let the patients in the world set an example. All medical brothers share the grand event. This matter must be famous in medical history and become a good story Words. "


    "Yes, the patient believes in the doctor most. If we don''t cut it, how can we make the people all over the world believe that I cut it!" a young doctor''s son said proudly.


    "I cut it too!"


    "I cut it too!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Before, it was impossible for these doctors to cut their hair easily. After treating so many doctors, Mo Wu had convinced many doctors. Coupled with the temptation of famous medical history and the medical ethics of hanging a pot to help the world, many doctors immediately responded.


    Soon, a group of doctors'' children also cut into flat heads.


    Mo Wu, who was cut into a flat head, looked at tie an vaguely. When tie an settled down, he went to the sloppy veteran who had just bet.


    Mo Wu and tie an knew that although this haircut was for a reason, it would obviously lead the Mohist School into a storm, so they secretly totaled and pulled more and more people into the water. After all, the law is not responsible for the public, and they can also share the pressure of the Mohist school.


    There are only a few Mohists and doctors, and so many soldiers infected with head lice are the real main force.

 Chapter 602

    "This old man!" tie an appeared in front of the sloppy veteran in an instant.


    The slovenly veterans felt empty and hurriedly wanted to drill into the crowd. However, they were blocked by a group of noisy veterans and couldn''t advance or retreat immediately.


    "Second brother Zhang, don''t run away! This little brother of Mohism is also kind-hearted. Your head lice has been for many years! It''s a great joy to completely eradicate it now!" a group of veterans said happily in the crowd, glad to see the sloppy veterans make a fool of themselves.


    Zhang Laoer, a slovenly veteran, glared at a group of bad friends, quickly turned around and smiled, "this little brother of Mohism, I was joking just now. Don''t take it to heart?"


    "Shh!"


    Behind him came bursts of laughter from veterans.


    "I''m kidding. Are we kidding you? Even if my young master cut his hair for us, he''s kidding." tie an roared.


    Zhang''s second son suddenly became stiff.


    Seeing this, Merton came over, waved Tie''an to step aside, looked at old man Zhang and said gently, "this brother has been married."


    "Just like him, who will marry him!" laughed a veteran who knew his roots.


    The second Zhang raised his neck and said stubbornly, "why does a big husband have no wife? When I seal the Marquis immediately, what kind of mother do you want?"


    Although Zhang Laoer''s voice was sonorous and powerful, Merton clearly saw a trace of loneliness in his eyes.


    Merton did not expose Zhang Laoer and persuaded him: "That said, I''m afraid there will be no more war in Datang in a short time after the war. Do you want to seal the Marquis immediately? I''m afraid you have to wait many more years. Even if you seal the Marquis immediately, your whole body is full of lice. You think you can enter the Tai Chi hall! I think you want to change your fate, first of all, start by eradicating head lice!"


    Zhang Laoer''s expression suddenly loosened.


    "In a few years, you will grow old. Even if you get a good daughter-in-law, what''s the use?" Merton patted Zhang''s second son on the shoulder.


    "At that time, I''m afraid Zhang''s dick will be useless!"


    A veteran joked, and the soldiers burst into laughter.


    "I''ve heard that you have gained a lot. There will certainly be a lot of silver rewards this time. It''s not easy to find a daughter-in-law if you cure your head lice, dress up clean and tidy, have military skills and rich rewards." Merton encouraged.


    "What if I can''t find it?" second Zhang said shyly.


    Merton smiled at Zhang Laoer and said, "it''s up to me! In this way! I personally guarantee you and publish a marriage advertisement for you in Ink magazine. I don''t believe you can''t find a daughter-in-law."


    "Marriage advertisement!" said Zhang Laoer in surprise.


    "Even if the whole Tang Dynasty knows that you want to ask for a mother-in-law and tell the world your conditions, the matchmakers of the whole Tang Dynasty are making arrangements for your marriage. If no girl is willing to marry you, I can''t help it!" Merton stalled.


    The second Zhang''s face turned red and said, "if you can''t find your daughter-in-law in that way, you don''t need to be told by mohou. I, the second Zhang, have no face to face mohou."


    He naturally knew that Zhang Laoer was cruel and came to Jibo.


    Under the care of Ji Bo, soon, a tall and resolute old man Zhang appeared in front of everyone. In addition, he was very suitable for flat hair. In Merton''s opinion, he had the tough style of military Han in later generations.


    Morton said, "Tie''an, take out one of your new clothes and change it for old two Zhang."


    Tie an took orders and quickly took out a new dress. Zhang Er took it and put it on impolitely.


    "Wow!" the soldiers around suddenly exclaimed.


    Man depends on clothes, Buddha depends on gold! Ma Laoer is a soldier for many years. He has a natural and strong figure. Coupled with Tie''an''s new clothes and refreshing crew cut, the whole person is completely new.


    "Zhang Laoer, you are a good boy. If you can''t find your daughter-in-law like this, I''ll dig out my eyes." a veteran exclaimed on his face.


    The other soldiers nodded one after another and looked at the transformed Zhang Er in surprise. At the moment, where is the trace of the former sloppy veteran.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" the second Zhang couldn''t help saying when he saw himself in the bronze mirror.


    "Thank me for what, I didn''t do anything," said Merton.


    "Merton''s words are on demand, which is not a second kindness!" said the second Zhang respectfully.


    "You''ve met a noble man this time!" a veteran envied.


    "Liu Tiezhu, do you want to marry a daughter-in-law? You''ve been carrying head lice all the time. I''m afraid it''s difficult for you in your life!" second brother Zhang turned his eyes and looked at the veteran who had been laughing at him before.


    Veteran Liu Tiezhu saw such a big change in second brother Zhang. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he also came to Jibo.


    "Lv Xiaoliu, are you going to go back with head lice? If you infect your mother-in-law, she won''t let you go to bed!" Zhang shouted to another veteran.


    "I''d rather spend money on treatment than cut my hair!" said the veteran named LV Xiaoliu, who was really unwilling to cut his hair.


    Mo Wu felt his flat head and said, "if you want to use medicine to treat head lice, at least 800 words, and it may not be a radical cure."


    "800 Wen, I can''t save so much money even if I''m a soldier for half a year!" the soldiers smacked their tongue. Their hair should grow long in half a year.


    "And not necessarily a radical cure!"


    "It certainly can''t be cured. Even if you are cured in the military camp, you will soon be infected. I''m afraid you have to cut your hair."


    "800 Wen. I''ve bought enough food for my family for a year."


    The soldiers were full of gossip.


    LV Xiaoliu broke his fingers and finally came out dejected.


    A group of veterans who snorted coldly by the second Zhang said contemptuously, "who else is going to go back and infect the head lice to the mother-in-law and children? You can keep your hair and head lice."


    As soon as Zhang''s second son''s voice fell, many soldiers came out dejected.


    Soon, the storm of hair cutting in the whole military camp was ten times faster than infecting head lice. Before, everyone was just as good. Now soldiers who cure head lice began to dislike soldiers with hair and lice on their heads.


    In addition, on the one hand, this is a good prescription that can be cured without a penny. On the other hand, it is the head lice that itches and may infect their families. This is not a difficult choice for some responsible soldiers.


    Of course, Ji Bo was not busy with so many soldiers. Soon, all shavers and barbers in Lanzhou went to battle.


    For three days, the whole military camp was covered with green silk everywhere, and an unprecedented delousing operation was carried out.


    Gao Shilian couldn''t hide such a big movement in the barracks. After hearing the news, Gao Shilian immediately rushed to the barracks and looked at the soldiers'' unique flat heads in the barracks. Gao Shilian couldn''t help looking at Morton with a guilty face and gnashing his teeth and said, "ink sacrifice wine! Do you know how much you have caused?"


    Gao Shilian finally confirmed that the rumors of Chang''an City were true. Mohist was really a catfish. He would return to Chang''an City in three days. He could stir up such a big storm in just three days.


    When Merton heard this, he immediately retorted, "in the eyes of adults Gao, which is better, a clean and hygienic flat headed soldier or a soldier with long hair but full of head lice!"


    Gao Shilian immediately concluded that no one wants to spend more time with people with head lice.


    Merton looked at the soldiers with flat heads and said in a fixed voice, "these soldiers are meritorious heroes of the Empire. They have sweated and shed blood for the Tang Dynasty. They should not go back and infect their families with head lice. They should not bear these criticisms and treatment."


    Gao Shilian struggled in his heart. At the moment, his official position was the highest. He had the power to order to prohibit hair cutting in the army. However, he also came from the war in the late Sui Dynasty. Naturally, he knew how serious the head lice in the army was. Now there are ways to ban head lice, and he can''t stop it. "


    Gao Shilian took a deep breath and said to him, "this is a soldier''s voluntary haircut. I won''t say anything more. I''m better here. However, when you return to the court, you''ll wait for the memorial of the imperial censor!"


    Merton sneered at the speech and said, "I''m afraid those civil servants who are high above are not willing to enter the military camp?"


    Merton can imagine that what happened in Lanzhou at the moment may have quickly spread to Chang''an city. It will be a storm waiting for him, but he has no regrets.

 Chapter 603

    "Drive!"


    Outside Lanzhou City, war horses roared, and a large number of soldiers began to evacuate Lanzhou city.


    Now the grass turns yellow, the weather has gradually turned cold, and winter is coming. In winter in all parts of the northwest grassland, even the strongest grassland warriors are shrinking in their own felt tents to keep warm. It is almost impossible to fight in winter.


    Since Tuyuhun''s form has been stable, it is natural to withdraw to Chang''an city to stay in Lanzhou to frighten the troops of various western regions.


    In the long army, each unique flat head is particularly eye-catching. Every time you go to a city along the way, it will cause an uproar. Many people point out around the soldiers who cut their hair.


    "How come there are so many and Shangbing!" people watching the excitement said one after another.


    "You don''t know that! This is the best way for the MOH family to cure the head lice. As long as the hair is cut off, the head lice will be eradicated immediately." a well-informed vendor said in a loud voice.


    "Then you can''t cut off your hair!" a common man touched his greasy hair and disdained.


    "What can''t? I heard that Mohist children took the lead in cutting hair. All Mohist and medical children set an example and cut off their long hair, claiming to set an example to eliminate the head lice disease of the Tang Dynasty." the vendor said with admiration.


    "Parents who are physically and physically vulnerable dare not be hurt, and filial piety begins! Mozi flatters the public and corrupt the customs, just like barbarians who break their hair, which is extremely unfilial!" a Confucian student was like hearing about the heinous crime, and his heart was hurt first.


    When the merchant heard the words of the Confucian scholar, he retorted, "I heard that the Mohist son''s parents died early. Even if he wants to be filial, he has no chance. How can he be unfilial?"


    "The body and skin are given by their parents. It is the biggest unfilial for the Mo family to practice their hair like this!" the Confucian said stubbornly on his face.


    The merchant sneered: "you don''t have the feeling of head lice. You won''t understand the uncomfortable feeling. In my opinion, the Mexican family set an example, voluntarily cut off their hair and eradicate stubborn diseases. It''s really great courage!"


    Many people also nodded one after another. In any case, Merton made great contributions to relieve the suffering of common people''s head lice. With the lead of Mohist children, and the enthusiastic imitation of Mohist children and medical children, many people who suffered from head lice were excited. More importantly, this method cost no money and guaranteed to be completely eradicated.


    Since then, every time the army went to a city, many people followed suit, subtracting long hair to treat head lice. Since ancient times, head lice has been a persistent disease and itchy, and the people have long been disturbed by it. Now Mohist took the lead in person, like a spark, and it has become a prairie fire.


    At the same time, the Mohist School broke off, and the news imitated by the people spread to Chang''an city like flying. Merton has not returned to Chang''an City, and the whole Chang''an city is like a frying pan.


    Even among Confucianism, it is no less than stormy waves.


    Since the Han Dynasty, the concept of governing the country with filial piety has become popular. The filial piety Sutra can be said to be the foundation of Confucian ethics. The body and skin are not damaged by parents, and filial piety begins! This is the opening work of the filial piety Sutra and the beginning of filial piety.


    In the view of Confucianism, no matter what the reason, it has destroyed the foundation of Confucianism.


    "Tell your majesty that the Mohists openly broke their hair. They did not say that their filial piety was corrupt, but led soldiers to follow suit. Our Tang Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety. If the soldiers who fought for the country were a group of unfilial people, talk about he Zhongjun serving the country and protecting the family and the people."


    In the Tai Chi hall, Kong Yingda''s face turned red and his anger could not rest.


    "I beg your majesty to severely punish the Mexican family!"


    "The Mohist school is lawless, and it is not enough to calm the people''s anger without severe punishment!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, the situation in the court was surging, and the literary ministers were filled with righteous indignation. Merton became the target of thousands of people in an instant.


    Li Shimin suddenly had a headache. Merton is so capable of tossing around. He tossed such a big storm before he came back!


    Li Shimin thought for a while and said dryly, "as far as I know, Merton''s broken hair is for a reason!"


    "Hair ornaments are the etiquette of Chinese civilization. Even if there is a big reason, you can''t break your hair." Kong Yingda said firmly on his face.


    Other civil servants also touched their hair crowns and looked proud.


    "That''s a moment when you have not experienced the whole day with war horses, the battle for months, and you can''t see a water source in the Gobi desert for many days, and every drop of water is precious. You have not experienced the tragedy of human ice and horse snow, or the scene of everyone''s head lice everywhere and fleas flying in the barracks after months of battle." An excited voice came from the generals, and a white haired figure appeared at the head of the generals.


    "Li Jing!" Kong Yingda was surprised. They didn''t expect that Li Jing would take the initiative to give advice to the Mohists at this time.


    Today, Li Jing has successively annihilated Turks and Tuyuhun, and his prestige in the army has reached the highest. After fighting Tuyuhun, he took the initiative to lay down his military power and prove his loyalty. Now even Li Shimin respects Li Jing.


    "At the end of my life, I spent countless days and nights in the barracks, and I caught head lice no less than ten times, not to mention ordinary soldiers." Li Jing said with emotion.


    Other generals nodded one after another. After the war, there was indeed a flood of head lice in the military camp. Even the generals could not help it. Even in peacetime, head lice were banned repeatedly.


    "These soldiers who shed blood and sweat for the Tang Dynasty, defend their homes and defend the country, and guard Jingbian are despised by the world. They are called reckless men, rough men, Pifu and Qiu Ba!" Li Jing said proudly, but stared at the civil servants.


    Many civil servants were embarrassed. I''m afraid these titles were first passed on from the mouth of scholars.


    "General Li, what we are talking about today is the broken hair of Mohist Zi, not these contempt for soldiers." Kong Yingda said awkwardly.


    "Kong Jijiu, this is exactly what the general said. Mo Jijiu followed the army and made many war achievements. For the time being, he noticed the disadvantages in the army. On the way back to Korea, he had a long talk with Mo Jijiu and reined in his horse for a long time. Based on the firearms prison, he jointly put forward a recruit plan!"


    "Recruit plan!"


    The civil servant was stunned, and even a group of generals looked at Li Jing.


    "What is the recruit plan?" Li Shimin said in his heart.


    Li Jing smiled and said in a loud voice, "this is an idea of ink sacrifice, that is, ordinary soldiers are literate, clean, loyal and patriotic! Military officials are brave and resourceful, both literate and martial. They not only have excellent martial arts, but also need to be familiar with military books. If I have this recruit in the Tang Dynasty, why worry about the world!"


    Merton did not expect that Li Jing should extend the plan for recruits in his military academy idea, and take this opportunity to launch it in the chaotang.


    Li Shimin suddenly stood up with his eyes shining. All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty stared at Li Jing in horror. No one thought that the military should have such ambition.


    "To complete the recruitment plan, the first step is to eliminate the head lice in the army," Li Jing said proudly.

 Chapter 604

    "Did Li Aiqing talk about the recruit plan in detail!" Li Shimin said with great interest.


    The Manchu courtiers also listened attentively. Everyone knew that if Li Jing''s vision was realized, it would be earth shaking changes for the military.


    "When I returned to Chang''an city at the end of the year, I had a deep talk with Merton and found that the world misunderstood many generals in the Tang Dynasty. It is widely said that good men don''t serve as soldiers! Ordinary people''s reaction to soldiers is mostly dirty, messy and bad. This situation can be said to be extremely serious. The folk atmosphere didn''t improve until your majesty overcame all opinions and used the army to fight drought and disaster." Li Jing arched his hand.


    Li Shimin nodded. He was the emperor immediately. Naturally, he knew the situation in the army.


    "Because of this, I found that many soldiers in the right guard can''t get a wife. Ordinary people don''t want to marry soldiers at all, and I believe most of the other soldiers are the same!" Li Jingdao, after he talked with Merton, he didn''t play immediately, but slowly observed the phenomenon in the army. Only then did he play right in the court in an orderly manner!


    Many generals nodded one after another. This phenomenon is very common among generals and soldiers, and it exists in all armies.


    "The officers and men of the Tang Dynasty are the pillars of the country. How can they be treated like this? After discussing with Merton, if you want to change the world''s impression of the officers and men, the first is to change the external image of the officers and men!" Li Jing said.


    "Li Aiqing, please continue!" Li Shimin said thoughtfully. Originally, he just wanted to change the civil servants'' criticism of Mohism, but now he really listened to it!


    "I wonder if you have found the difference between firearm supervisors and ordinary soldiers!" Li Jing suddenly turned to other generals and asked.


    "Firearms warden!"


    The generals in the court either saw the firecracker supervisor during the great martial arts exercise or saw the firecracker supervisor generals during the western expedition. They couldn''t help but emerge that unique army in their hearts.


    "It seems that the firearm officers and men are cleaner and tidy. Even walking is different from other officers and men," Cheng Yaojin thought.


    He was able to see the maverick character of the firearms warden, so he raised the point to have more contact with the officers and men in the army.


    Other generals also nodded one after another. They all saw the officers and men of the firearm prison and were very impressed by the firearm prison!


    Li Jing nodded and said, "it''s not just the firearms prison. Even the Mohist village and the Mohist children have greatly changed in the eyes of the people in Chang''an City in a short time. Most of them rely on cleanliness and tidiness."


    Under the leadership of Merton, the children of Mohism abandoned the bad habit of wearing Ge clothes and excessive thrift in the pre-Qin period. Everyone''s clothes are neat and clean, and pay attention to personal appearance, which is completely different from the scruffy people around. The image of Mohism has changed greatly.


    Everyone found that it seemed that wherever Mohist was, it seemed that cleanliness was the first priority.


    "Therefore, if we want to change the image of soldiers in the world, the first is to be clean and tidy and eradicate head lice. At the end, for example, if Li is infected with an epidemic and put into the downtown, I''m afraid the world will avoid me like a snake and scorpion, and no one wants to be close to me three feet away. The disease of head lice is like a plague in the army, which not only makes soldiers miserable, but also makes people misunderstand soldiers "Dislike and abandon," sighed Li Jing.


    As soon as Li Jing said this, the generals nodded one after another. After all, they also had deep feelings about the poor health in the army. Sometimes even if they were not careful, they would be caught. We can imagine how serious it is.


    "Therefore, the end general believes that it is still a top priority to eradicate the disease of head lice in the military camp and improve the health of the military camp. All the diseases that infect head lice should have their hair cut and completely eradicate the head lice in the military." Li Jing suddenly shouted.


    "I also think it is imperative to eradicate head lice!" Cheng Yaojin echoed.


    All the generals nodded in agreement. This is related to the image of the military. If the image of the military is greatly changed according to Li Jing''s idea, the generals will naturally be beneficial.


    "How difficult is it to eradicate head lice? As long as you wash your hair frequently and pay attention to hygiene, the disease of head lice will naturally heal without medicine." Kong Yingda said proudly.


    When Kong Yingda finished speaking, even other generals in the army and even civil servants who had fought with the army couldn''t help but draw from the corners of his mouth.


    Li Shimin said, "Confucius didn''t know about the wine offering. There are many people in the army and countless war horses, mules and horses. It''s almost impossible to eradicate head lice by ordinary methods."


    Kong Yingda noticed the people''s strange eyes, and his face turned red and said, "since ordinary methods can''t work, why don''t you use medicine!"


    "Medicine!" said Li Jing with a sneer, "the imperial army has hundreds of thousands, and each person has at least 800 words of medicine to treat head lice. This is not a small number. Moreover, it is not enough to treat people alone. If you don''t treat war horses, it will also be infected again. In this way, the cost must be more than doubled."


    Hearing this, Dai Zhou turned pale, shook his head and said, "the Ministry of the people has no surplus money. This time, the disaster in Shandong must have completely emptied the imperial court, and there is no surplus money at all."


    It is well known that a penny of money can''t defeat the hero Han. Now the government is in financial tension. If Mohist Zi hadn''t freed a lot of money from Tuyuhun, I''m afraid he wouldn''t be able to give rewards to meritorious officers and men. Now he has to give a lot of money. How would Dai Zhou be willing to.


    "I also think that cutting hair roots and removing head lice is a rare recipe. Besides, it will grow again in a year and a half?" Dai Zhou agreed.


    Kong Yingda''s face turned black. Unexpectedly, in addition to the military, the Ministry of the people also defected!


    Li Jing nodded and said softly to Kong Yingda, "this will not let all soldiers cut their hair. After the head lice in the army is eradicated, it will naturally be able to store their hair again."


    Kong Yingda and other civil servants sneered at the speech. Head lice are so rampant in the army. Once the soldiers lose their hair, I''m afraid they don''t have much chance to store their hair again.


    "It is the foundation of the country for soldiers to defend the country. Filial piety and righteousness should be more strict in order to be loyal to the country!" Kong Yingda did not let go, and other civil servants agreed one after another.


    Li Jing retorted: "since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been incomplete. I would have thought that loyalty should be greater than filial piety. You can''t ask the whole army to bleed and sweat, and bear a head of lice."


    "That is, besides, the filial piety Sutra is a classic of your Confucianism. You can use it to restrain your Confucian children. You don''t have to wait for Confucianism to worry about the strategists." Cheng Yaojin echoed.


    "Although the filial piety Sutra is a Confucian classic, the hair crown is a Chinese tradition for thousands of years. How can you trample it wantonly!" Kong Yingda said angrily.


    Immediately, the Tai Chi hall was divided into two factions, and there was an instant quarrel between civil and military forces.


    "All right! This matter will be put on hold for the time being. We''ll discuss it when Merton comes back!" Li Shimin said.


    Suddenly, the man Dynasty glared at Wen and Wu, and then stopped.


    "Can Li Aiqing explain the recruit plan in detail?" Li Shimin asked.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "in addition to being clean and tidy, recruits should also read and understand the way to be loyal to the king!"


    "Reading?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but grow up!


    Li Jing explained: "of course, it doesn''t need much knowledge. This method needs to cooperate with Master Li''s compulsory education method. If everyone in the Tang Dynasty can read, the soldiers recruited can read naturally."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly.


    "However, for military generals, they need to be both literate and martial. After consulting the roster of generals in the army, I found that less than 30% of them can be familiar with military books." Li Jing shook her head.


    Li Shimin nodded. It is typical that Zhonglang General Chang He and Chang he didn''t know how to write and write. It is well known in the Manchu Dynasty. One day, the memorial he played to Li Shimin was very literary. Li Shimin saw that it was written by others. Only then did he find that a generation of cloth general Xiang Ma Zhou.


    "To be a general, bravery and martial arts are one of them, and strategy is also essential. Weichen believes that we must choose strong generals in the army, follow the example of the Imperial College, set up military academies, and select famous generals to teach their art of war and the way of loyalty and patriotism. In this way, all generals in the army are proficient in both literature and martial arts, brave and resourceful, loyal and patriotic, and our Datang will be invincible." Li Jing said proudly.


    "Loyal and patriotic! Invincible!" Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly brightened.


    "Both civil and military skills!" the civil servant''s heart was cold. He didn''t expect that the general''s mind should be so big.


    Even a group of generals in the army looked at Li Jing in horror. As soon as Li Jing''s recruit plan came out, it must bring earth shaking changes to the military. It must be famous in history and become a generation of master of art of war.

 Chapter 605

    At the moment, the whole hall was silent. Li Jing''s recruit plan shocked the whole hall. At the moment, the hair cutting of Mohist school has long been the focus.


    For a long time, most of the civil servants regarded themselves as high minded and despised the rude generals. The court had the intention to control and clamp down the generals. Whenever the generals made a little deviant action, it would cause an uproar in the Manchu Dynasty.


    Including the previous false accusations of Li Jing''s conspiracy to oppose, most of them were initiated by civil servants, and even Li Shimin contributed to this atmosphere, vaguely forming the sign of using literature to make military.


    However, once Li Jing''s recruitment plan is implemented, I''m afraid this sign will disappear in the bud immediately.


    "What is this military academy? Please explain it in detail!" Li Shimin couldn''t wait.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "tell your majesty, after Wei Chen was falsely accused of rebellion by Gao Zhengsheng, he was really depressed. However, the words of Mo offering a toast woke Wei Chen suddenly."


    "Oh!" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.


    "Mo offered a toast and spoke frankly to Wei Chen face to face. The reason why ministers in the court kept playing Wei Chen''s rebellion is that Wei Chen has the ability and conditions to rebel!" Li Jing''s words sounded like a thunder in the court hall! Everyone looked at Li Jing in horror.


    Li Shimin''s face was expressionless. Under the broad Dragon Robe, his fingers tightly grasped the Dragon chair, and his fingertips turned white.


    Among the civil servants, he was ecstatic. No one thought that Li Jing would expose his shortcomings like this. This is a heaven given opportunity.


    Other generals also looked at Li Jing in horror and looked at each other.


    Hou Junji took the lead in responding, suddenly stepped out of the line and shouted, "it''s an unforgivable crime for the micro minister to play the Mozi''s wild words and try to provoke the relationship between the monarch and the minister!"


    "General Li is loyal. After the western expedition, he will return to the court immediately, which is enough to prove his loyalty!" other generals also said one after another.


    Li Shimin laughed, got up and said in a voice, "you Aiqing, get up. Of course I believe in general Li''s loyalty. Otherwise, how can he take on the important task of the western expedition!"


    "Thank you for your trust!" Li Jing said gratefully.


    Li Shimin looked at Li Jing with great interest and said, "so Merton gave you an idea of a military academy?"


    Li Jing nodded and said, "yes, Wei Chen and Mo sacrificial wine have talked for a long time. They have counted the disadvantages in the army, the soldiers are rude, and the generals are illiterate. The only thing that can change this situation is the military academy system."


    "Choose a strong general in the army and teach him the art of war!" Li Shimin said seriously.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "Mo sacrificial way, you are the only one in the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing. The tree attracts the wind! If there are countless Li Jing in the Tang army, I''m afraid you will rebel again, I''m afraid you will laugh off your big teeth!"


    "You have nothing to hide! After returning to Chang''an City, I will punish him severely!" Li Shimin could imagine Merton''s expression at that time and said with hatred.


    Li Jing solemnly said: "the military academy system is that the powerful generals gather together to teach them the excellent military skills and classic campaigns of all dynasties, cultivate a group of brave and resourceful generals for the Tang Dynasty, and instill their faith in loyalty and patriotism. Once they learn it, they will be sent to the army as grass-roots military officers to hone it. Over time, there will be a large number of famous generals!"


    Other generals also have bright eyes. If their generals are both literate and martial, they can quickly understand their intentions, just like arms and fingers, wouldn''t their combat effectiveness be greatly increased.


    "Even if there are generals who want to rebel, I''m afraid no one will follow. Even if there are some unscrupulous people who want to rebel, I''m afraid they will be like a clown in front of countless loyal, patriotic, literate and martial soldiers!" Li Jing said excitedly. He thought of all kinds of countermeasures with himself as an imaginary enemy. Once the military academy system is implemented, Even he has no chance of success in rebellion, let alone other generals.


    Civil servants are also shocked one after another. If each of the military is like Li Jing, I''m afraid it will become a joke to make military use of literature.


    "Recruit plan, military academy!" Li Shimin felt more and more meaningful.


    He started a rebellion. Of course, he knows that it is not difficult for a military general to rebel. Let alone Li Jing, other generals present. If he wants to rebel, he may also have a chance.


    Even Li Shimin thought more. If Li Yuan used the military academy to train grass-roots officers, the difficulty he wanted to rebel at the beginning would have increased countless times in an instant, and the probability of success was extremely slim.


    Even he did so, let alone other generals. As a result, the combat effectiveness of the Datang army increased sharply. Secondly, the territory of Datang was as stable as Mount Tai.


    "Li Aiqing is loyal. I thank Tang for his loyalty!" Li Shimin got up and solemnly saluted Li Jing. Of course, he knew how important the military academy system was to stabilize the imperial power.


    "This is my duty!" Li Jing quickly replied.


    "What do you Aiqing think of the military academy system?" Li Shimin sat down again and looked at the Manchu courtiers.


    "This is a good policy!"


    A group of generals responded one after another. Anyone can see that the military academy system can certainly make the military strength of Datang soar, and the generals naturally enthusiastically support it.


    "We think this method is feasible!"


    The civil servants looked at each other and agreed.


    The military academy system has the function of stabilizing imperial power, and civil servants can''t find any reason to oppose it.


    Li Shimin waved his big hand and said, "in that case, Li Aiqing, write a memorial about the recruit plan and the military academy system and hand it over to the three provinces for preparation."


    "Yes!" Li Jing replied.


    "In addition, General Li should also seize the time to write military books, so that the soldiers can have teaching materials!" Li Shimin suddenly flashed his eyes.


    Hearing the speech, Li Jing immediately smiled bitterly and said, "tell your majesty that the original military book of Weichen is about to be completed, but it has been continuously stirred by the boy Merton. I''m afraid it will be pushed down and rewritten."


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "it doesn''t hurt to be late. It''s not a rush to prepare for the military academy. At the same time, you can let the professor of Sun Tzu''s art of war go to the military books of the previous dynasty first."


    "After the Wei minister came to the court, he immediately wrote a book behind closed doors, but when it would be written, he really can''t guarantee!" Li Jing said helplessly.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "it doesn''t hurt if you don''t have a book. Wouldn''t it be better for Li Aiqing to teach himself at that time!"


    "Never! Weichen has never taught students." Li Jing waved her hand again and again.


    Chang sun Wuji advised, "General Li just said that there were countless Li Jing in the army. If you don''t teach your true skills, how can you do it?"


    The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty immediately burst into laughter, but in the laughter, everyone''s thoughts were very different.


    "Besides, not only Li Aiqing but also other Aiqing should teach. Is there a better art of war in the Tang Dynasty than Aiqing here?" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "Ah!"


    Other generals immediately looked at each other and could only bow their heads and say yes!


    Li Shimin looked at the generals and suddenly found that the generals who had followed him in the northern and southern wars were getting old. Even the youngest Xu Shiji was already 40, and most of the others were nearly 50. Although he had the secret skill of dyeing his hair and dyed his white hair, his old face could not hide from others.


    For military generals, the days of war are running out, and it is time for Datang to train the next generation of military generals, which is also the reason why Li Shimin supports the military academy.


    While this group of veteran generals can still fight, they can cultivate a younger generation of generals, so as not to let the generals of the Tang Dynasty fall apart.

 Chapter 606

    The civil and military dispute has a long history, far more than the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, and even more cruel, often worrying about life and death.


    Although the generals of the Tang Dynasty have great power, the trend of making weapons with literature has gradually taken shape. Every time the army goes out, there will always be civilian officials in the army who are similar to the supervisors of later generations.


    However, the sudden rise of the military completely disrupted the plans of Kong Yingda and other civil servants, and many important officials in the court had no time to take into account such small matters as Merton''s breaking hair.


    However, for Kong Yingda, the most important thing is to maintain the correctness of the book of filial piety, the core of Confucius'' filial piety. At present, the way to impeach Merton in the court is no longer feasible. He has to find another way.


    Kong Yingda''s eyes flashed and saw Quan Wanji''s heart move. The road to chaotang is not feasible. Maybe the people have great potential!


    "Confucian journal!"


    Kong Yingda thought of a good way to defend filial piety!


    "Don''t worry about Kong sacrificing wine. How can Kong Sheng allow yellow haired children to slander wantonly? Posterity naturally knows how to do it!"


    Outside the Tai Chi hall, Quan Wanji was filled with righteous indignation.


    "Thank you, Mr. Quan. The Kong family will remember Mr. Quan''s kindness!" Kong Yingda bowed down and thanked him.


    Quan Wanji was delighted when he heard the speech. The Confucius family has a very unique position in Confucianism. With the support of the Confucius family, the influence of Confucian journals will certainly expand again! Then he suddenly nodded and immediately ran to the Confucian magazine station with high morale.


    Confucian journal station!


    Wei Si''an said excitedly, "hahaha! The Mohist school really wants to die! He even risked the universal condemnation to provoke the filial piety Sutra!"


    The Tang Dynasty established the country with filial piety, especially after the change of Xuanwu sect, Li Shimin put filial piety and righteousness in the first place for his external image. He was respectful to Li Yuan during New Year holidays, although Li Yuan was not expected to see him all the time! The surface work is getting better and better.


    Quan Wanji also nodded and said, "the meaning of Kong''s offering wine is very clear. It''s better to use Confucian journals to crack down on the Mo family. In this way, even the imperial court has to punish the Mo family!"


    Wei Si''an said excitedly, "don''t worry, Lord Quan. Writing articles with filial piety scriptures is the strength of editor in chief ma. Boy, let editor in chief Ma write articles to refute, and we must make the Mexican family famous."


    On the night of Shangyuan Festival, he had torn his face with mojiazi. Now he had the opportunity to fall into the well, and he naturally spared no effort.


    "That''s naturally the best, but if you add this one, it will be more perfect." Quan Wanji took out an article from his cuff and handed it to Wei Sian.


    "The autograph of Kong''s offering wine!" Wei Si''an took over and looked at Quan Wanji with a shock in his heart.


    Quan Wanji nodded proudly.


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help applauding the case: "with this article, Mozi must have no room to turn over!"


    With the order, Confucian magazine immediately worked overtime and formulated a special issue overnight, ready to give Merton a fatal blow.


    And ink magazine is in the camp.


    Mo San and Mr. Li were also in a hurry. After they learned about Merton''s broken hair, they naturally knew that it would cause an uproar and immediately gathered together to discuss countermeasures.


    "Merton is so reckless that he has made such a big basket!" Master Li said angrily. He was also amazed at Merton''s ability to cause trouble. It was not quiet.


    Mo San was unhappy when he heard the speech and said, "does Master Li also think that breaking hair is unfilial!"


    Master Li opened his mouth and sighed, "filial piety has nothing to do with unfilial nature and hair. However, the filial piety Sutra is a Confucian classic. Merton''s move must annoy a group of Confucian scholars. How can Confucian scholars who regard the filial piety Sutra as a holy scripture give up easily."


    Mo San couldn''t help but have a headache and was convinced of his young master''s ability to cause trouble.


    "Since the hair has nothing to do with filial piety, what''s wrong with the young master?" Mo Sanqiang defended Merton.


    "Confucian scholars maintain Confucian classics. If Mohist children maintain Mohist classics in general, how can there be a slightest fallacy!" said master Li.


    Mo Sanfan asked, "even if it''s wrong."


    Master Li nodded bitterly and said, "even if it''s wrong!"


    Mo San retorted, "but Kong Sheng once said that everyone can do nothing wrong. He can change after a change. He is good!"


    Master Li shook his head and said, "for many Confucian scholars, saints can''t make mistakes, and they won''t admit that saints can make mistakes!"


    Suddenly, they were silent.


    "Isn''t there any way?" Mo San said reluctantly. If Confucian scholars attack it, the young master''s form is not good!


    Master Li, moved in his heart, said, "maybe there''s another policy. Although it can''t let mohou get away, it can greatly change the pressure of mohou!"


    Mo San looked surprised!


    Master Li suddenly got up and wrote on rice paper: "if you believe in books, it''s better to have no books!"


    "If you believe in books, it''s better to have no books!" Mo San said suddenly when he saw this sentence, "this is what Mencius said in his heart."


    Master Li nodded and said, "the book here refers to the Shangshu, which is the classic work of Kong Sheng. Meng Sheng pointed out the mistakes of Kong Sheng''s works long ago, which can be regarded as a precedent for Merton to find out the fallacy of filial piety!"


    "So, isn''t the young master all right?" Mo San was surprised.


    Master Li shook his head and said, "otherwise, the Meng school will not embarrass Merton at most, and the others will be hard to say."


    Mo San was not disappointed. It was a surprise to be able to reduce the pressure by half.


    "However, eradicating head lice is a matter for doctors. If doctors come forward and describe in detail the benefits of hair cutting for eradicating head lice, they will certainly reduce the pressure for Merton," Li said again.


    Mo nodded and said, "yes, so the young master is to stop the disaster for the doctor. How can he bear the pressure alone? I''ll go to Mo hospital to discuss with doctor sun."


    As soon as Mo San was about to get up, he heard a neutral voice outside and said, "no, sun has arrived!"


    "Doctor sun has arrived!"


    Mo San and master Li were surprised and quickly got up to greet them.


    As soon as they walked out of the door, they suddenly looked shocked. They saw that Sun Simiao, a fairy like man with white hair, had cut off his long hair and also had short hair.


    "Doctor sun, are you...?" Master Li stared at Sun Simiao''s white hair.


    Sun Simiao touched his white head with only Qi''s roots and said: "I''m ashamed. The doctor claims to be a pot hanger to help the world. The disease of head lice is a bad disease that puzzles the people. The doctor is helpless, but it was cured by Mo Hou in such a simple way. As Mo Xiaoyou said, this is the responsibility of the doctor. Sun should set an example, cut off his long hair and set an example for patients all over the world."


    "Doctor sun is worthy of being an expert doctor. We admire him!" they sighed.


    "In addition to this, sun cut off his long hair in support of Mo Hou, sun also has an article. First, let the people all over the world know that hair has nothing to do with life expectancy, and long hair and short hair have nothing to do with the human body. Second, publicize the harm of head lice and call on the people to cut hair and eradicate head lice." Sun Simiao said, took out an article and handed it to Mo San.


    "Thank you, doctor sun!" Mo San cried with joy. With the support of Sun Simiao and doctors, Merton''s pressure will be greatly reduced.


    Mr. Li also breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, Merton must pass this pass safely!


    Doctor sun shook his head and said, "no, it should be the doctor who thanked Marquis Mo!"


    For a long time, Mohism has spared no effort to support the revival of doctors. Now it is finally the turn of doctors to repay Mohism.

 Chapter 607

    Since the brick road was built, the speed of message transmission has been greatly improved. Chang''an city will receive countless messages from all over the world every day.


    The incident of Merton''s broken hair caused such a sensation. Naturally, for a moment, the wind in Chang''an city changed greatly, and Merton''s painstaking image suddenly plummeted, even the Mohists were involved.


    "Kong Yingda is so cruel that he used ink magazine to destroy the young master!" as an old opponent, once the Confucian magazine was published, ink three naturally made mistakes in the Shangshu, and it is understandable that there are mistakes in the filial piety Sutra!


    "Hateful! Li Duo is still not a Confucian. He eats inside out and helps the Mexican family speak!" Wei Si''an scolded.


    Quan Wanji''s face also sank and said, "strange Confucian Li duo, he has always been perverse. At the beginning, he specialized in extreme studies, which was not tolerated by Confucian orthodoxy."


    "Meng Sheng refutes Kong Sheng. This time, can the Mohists escape!" Wei Si''an said reluctantly.


    Quan Wanji shook his head and said, "it''s not so easy for the Mohists to escape this disaster. Kong Sheng is the foundation of Confucianism. He is inclined to Meng Sheng. Other old die hards will not let go of the Mohists."


    Wesan was a little relieved, but before he picked up the ink magazine again, he heard a noise in the restaurant.


    "Doctor sun even cut his hair short!" a Confucian student exclaimed in disbelief with an ink magazine.


    "Medicine King Sun Simiao, doctor sun!" others asked incredulously.


    "Not him. Who else?"


    The whole restaurant was in an uproar. No one expected Sun Simiao to support the Mo family so resolutely.


    "Doctor! Sun Simiao, the king of medicine!" Quan Wanji suddenly panicked. He didn''t think he had forgotten the most important problem. Merton cut his long hair to cure the world''s head lice, and how could the doctor known as hanging a pot to help the world miss this excellent opportunity.


    Quan Wanji quickly picked up the ink magazine and looked at it. He saw that the ink magazine wrote impressively: "the drug king broke his hair and vowed to eradicate the disease of head lice in the Tang Dynasty!"


    "Hair is like nails. It''s not painful or itchy. It''s inconvenient for the elderly. It should be trimmed......"


    "Long hair, summer prickles, winter lice, hiding dirt,......"


    Sun Simiao''s article is not colorful, but medically proves that hair cutting will not harm human body, and then counts the shortcomings of hair storage.


    If you are an ordinary person, this article will certainly sink into the sea, but Sun Simiao is the most famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty. On his reputation in Chang''an City, Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, is not inferior to the important officials in the court by virtue of his white body, and his influence can be imagined.


    Once this article was published, the wind direction of the whole Chang''an city turned sharply.


    At the same time, Kong Yingda held the ink magazine in his hand and his face was blue. He thought that his opponent was only Mohism and would surely be able to catch it.


    However, I didn''t expect that there was a confrontation between strategists on the court hall. The people not only didn''t solve the internal problems of Confucianism, but also attracted doctors to come forward in person. At the moment, Merton hasn''t arrived at Chang''an City yet, and all the attacks he prepared suddenly disappeared.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Kong Ying clenched her teeth when she arrived at Dayton.

 Chapter 608

    In Chang''an City, there are many people who don''t know Kong Yingda, but if you don''t know the medicine King Sun Simiao, I''m afraid you will be laughed at immediately!


    Before Sun Simiao arrived in Chang''an City, he was already famous all over the world. He arrived in Chang''an city only for a short time of one or two years. I don''t know how many difficult and complicated diseases in Chang''an City have been cured. He deserves the name of a miracle doctor and is respected as the king of medicine!


    Now Yaowang personally took the lead in hair cutting, explained in detail the harm of head lice and the benefits of hair cutting, and called on the people to cut hair and eradicate head lice, which naturally doubled the effect.


    With the release of Ink magazine, two opposing ideas suddenly formed in Chang''an city. One is the people of rich families, who are naturally very few infected with head lice, and have the ability to treat them with drugs. Naturally, they spared no effort to support Confucian magazine and vowed to defend their hairstyle to the death.


    However, there are still a large number of poor people who are the main force suffering from head lice disease. The treatment cost of 800 Wen is an astronomical figure for poor people, while Mohist''s method does not cost a penny and guarantees a radical cure! In addition, Mozi and Sun Simiao, an old and a young, a leader of Mohism and a leader of doctors, are the two most influential figures in Chang''an city. They set an example and cut their hair to eradicate head lice.


    For the poor people suffering from head lice, although they are excited, they are still watching. After all, the customs of many years can not be easily changed at once.


    The first to have their hair cut were Mohist and medical children. Merton and Sun Simiao had taken the lead in cutting their hair, and natural responders gathered. Overnight, all the men in Mohist hospital and Mohist village became flat heads.


    With the leadership of Mohist and medical children, many hesitant people finally made up their minds.


    Song family!


    Song Shichao is a staunch supporter of Merton. Since he missed the big prize for the secret skill of living fish, he was rewarded by the competition between Mei and Xue and received a reward of ten kilograms of snow salt. He is very devoted to Merton''s worship. Even if his family is poor, he doesn''t pull every issue of the ink magazine.


    Today''s song Shichao holds a special issue of Ink magazine, carefully reads Sun Simiao''s article, feels his oily braid, and hesitates in his heart.


    The disease of head lice was an unspeakable pain in Song Shichao''s heart. It was itchy and intolerable. It also infected song. With song''s fierce character, he naturally didn''t have a good face and gave him a cold face.


    "God damn it, I managed to get rid of all the head lice. If you dare to infect me, don''t enter the house!" song took a scornful look at Song Shichao and walked out of the house with a cold face.


    Song Shichao suddenly felt bitter. He looked at Merton''s flat hairstyle painted in the ink magazine. He suddenly felt a horizontal in his heart, picked up two Wen, went out of the house and came to the craftsman who usually trims people''s beard.


    "Cut me according to the Mohist hairstyle!" Song Shichao patted the ink magazine in front of the craftsman and said ruthlessly.


    The craftsman was delighted when he heard the speech. He naturally heard of the storm caused by Merton''s haircut. It was a difficult choice for others, but it was a great good thing for him.


    Even if half of the people in Chang''an need to have their hair cut, the craftsmen who trim their long hair and beard can make a lot of money.


    I''m afraid Merton didn''t know that his unintentional move gave birth to a huge industry all over the streets, barber industry!


    "OK, keep it to your satisfaction!" without hesitation, the craftsman took two Wen money, picked up the tool, and soon a flat head was formed.


    When the first flat head appeared on the street of Chang''an City, soon, two, three


    More and more poor people followed suit. In Chang''an City, flat heads soon appeared in all streets and alleys.


    In the pan restaurant!


    "Shopkeeper pan, what''s the matter? Your food has such a long hair!" a customer picked up a regular hair from the food and said discontentedly.


    "I''m sorry, I''m sorry! I''ll replace you with a new one!" shopkeeper pan rushed forward and apologized.


    "No, I don''t have any appetite!" the customer shook his long sleeve, turned away and walked into a restaurant opposite.


    Several customers who wanted to come in stopped and turned away! "


    Shopkeeper pan was furious when he saw this. He angrily walked into the back kitchen and shouted at the cook who cooked vegetables: "in the future, hair will appear in the food, and the salary of the current month will be deducted!"


    That afternoon, when shopkeeper pan was stunned, the cook swaggered back with a big flat head.


    In the Xishan military camp. In a camp, Qin Huaiyu looked at the flat head of Merton in front of the ink magazine and looked at each other.


    "Brother Mo cherished the world and risked such a great sacrifice for the people all over the world." Qin Huaiyu said with a look of praise.


    "It''s said that General Li''s army has played to your majesty to implement the recruitment plan. The first thing is to eliminate the problem of head lice in the army. Brother Mo''s idea is one of them!" Chumo nodded.


    Wei Chi Baolin stretched out his hand and groped on his head for a while. He caught a head lice and squeezed it to death. He despised it and wiped the blood clean. He said impatiently, "why do you say so much? Do we cut our hair or not!"


    "Cut!"


    "Of course!"


    The two said at the same time.


    "For the sake of brotherhood and solidarity with brother Mo, I can only bear to give up my favorite hair." Qin Huaiyu said with a sad face.


    Chumo is even more upright: "the recruit plan is a major event in the rise of our military family. Banning head lice in the army is a top priority. As a military man, Cheng must set an example. Why not give up this beautiful hair!"


    "Then hurry up, I can''t stand these head lice for a long time." Wei Chi Baolin ignored their hypocrisy and directly exposed them.


    Other soldiers have been in the military camp for a long time or in ordinary families. Sikong is naturally surprised at the head lice, but where did the three childe brothers catch the head lice? Most of the soldiers have this disease during the long journey of the western expedition. Naturally, the three people can''t avoid it.


    Normally, the three of them could not stand the creeping creatures on their heads, but they didn''t dare to let people know. They were afraid of being laughed at. They didn''t want to be moved immediately after Merton''s broken hair came. They decided to take this opportunity to completely eliminate the head lice.


    "Why? You didn''t infect me. If I hadn''t caught head lice," Chumo said angrily.


    "What do you mean I infected you? It''s not certain who infected you? As far as I know, Huaiyu''s horse was the first to catch lice." Wei Chi Baolin Weng said.


    "Don''t spit out blood!" Qin Huaiyu denied.


    In the three person camp, their voices became louder and louder. Soon, the three came out with a flat head. The whole Xishan camp was a sensation and soon surrounded by a crowd of soldiers!


    Qin Huaiyu held his head high and said, "we only lost our hair for the sake of brotherhood and the recruit plan. Now after we have made meritorious contributions and received rewards, we will go home. If we don''t want to infect our wife and children with head lice, we don''t take this opportunity to cut off our long hair and eradicate the head lice, otherwise we will regret."


    Qin Huaiyu once again used Merton''s move, and sure enough, it has been tried repeatedly.


    With the publicity of Ink magazine, coupled with the three childe brothers Qin Huaiyu taking the lead personally, and immediately coupled with their concern for their families, many soldiers decided to cut their hair and eradicate head lice.


    At the moment, the wind of hair cutting in Chang''an city is slowly spreading, and there is a trend of spreading outward from Chang''an City, which has already become a prairie fire.

 Chapter 609

    The harem is the place where the news is most closed. However, with the reports of Confucianism and ink, the story of Merton''s breaking hair finally spread all over the harem.


    In Changle palace, a group of princesses consciously gathered around Princess Changle!


    "It turned out that her brother-in-law was not a monk, but to cure the head lice and break her hair for the poor people!" Princess Gaoyang didn''t know whether she was sorry or happy for Princess Changle. She looked at Princess Changle and said something else.


    Princess Yuzhang said in a roundabout way, "my brother-in-law and Changle have such a good relationship. How can I leave my sister and escape? Besides, lice grow on my head. It''s so disgusting. Naturally, I have to be clean!"


    "Yes, yes!" echoed the princesses.


    At the beginning, Changle and Merton had such a vigorous love, which is well known. How can they easily renege!


    In addition, the princesses were in the palace. They were naturally clean. At the thought of lice growing on their heads, they couldn''t help feeling sick. Naturally, they spared no effort to support Merton.


    "According to me, my brother-in-law must want men all over the world to cut off their long hair. In this way, women all over the world can no longer dress up as women. In this way, the story between him and sister Changle is the only one in the world." said the princess of Jinyang.


    "Yes! Why didn''t I think of it? Jinyang is smart!" the princesses joked.


    Princess Gaoyang felt a burst of jealousy in her heart. Although Princess Jinyang said childish words, she told another fact. Merton''s love to Princess Changle is the best love in the world.


    The most beautiful love poem!


    "The world is! Sister Changle, let''s have a look!" other princesses also begged.


    Although Princess Gaoyang twisted her pretty face to one side, her heart was like a kitten scratching, which was unbearable.


    Seeing that the fire was almost over, Princess Changle pretended to take out a letter. Princess Yuzhang immediately grabbed it.


    "Let me see, let me see!"


    All the princesses eagerly gathered in front of Princess Yuzhang. Seeing this, Princess Yuzhang just opened her arms and let all the princesses see it as much as possible.


    Will you marry me young man? When my hair achieves waist length, I will treat you in a ten mile red dress, but I fear long hair and waist, and I will be glad to see you.


    Princess Yuzhang read it involuntarily, but she didn''t think it was out of control. She read it again and again. She couldn''t help being crazy!


    Even Princess Gaoyang couldn''t help indulging in such beautiful love poems. Although Chang sun Chong is also a talented man, when it comes to writing love poems, he doesn''t even deserve to mention shoes with Merton!


    Other princesses also listened to such beautiful love poems and couldn''t help looking at the happy princess Changle with envious eyes,


    "Sister Changle is so happy! Unexpectedly, she could meet such a talented person as her brother-in-law!" after a long time, Yu Zhang returned to his senses, his face turned red and said with envy to Princess Changle.


    "One day you will meet a man who treats you wholeheartedly!" said Princess Changle.


    The princesses nodded, but they knew in their hearts that their future partner would never be as good as Mozi.


    "By the way, if my brother-in-law comes back and spreads ten li red makeup, will my sister?" Yu Zhang suddenly smiled cunningly.


    Princess Changle suddenly made a big red face. I''m afraid any unmarried woman will be shy in the face of this problem.


    "Sister, I''m shy!" Princess Jinyang smiled.


    "Call you nonsense!" Princess Changle immediately quarreled with the princesses.


    Suddenly, Princess Changle made an effort, and the gold strand on her head slipped. Suddenly, a head of green silk slipped and her long soft hair. To the amazement of all the princesses, although Princess Changle''s hair was also long hair, it only reached her waist.


    "Sister, have you cut your hair too?" Yu Zhang suddenly exclaimed. No wonder he thought the bun of Princess Changle was a little short today.


    "Waist length hair?" the princesses looked at the waist length hair of Princess Changle and couldn''t help thinking of Merton''s love poem just now.


    Princess Changle picked up the gold strand, blushed, nodded and said, "when Merton sent the poem, she also sent a portrait of my waist long hair! I thought it was very beautiful, so I cut my waist long hair."


    A group of princesses came together curiously and surrounded Princess Changle''s waist long hair. They were surprised. Most of the women''s hair in this era bent their heels and legs. I''m afraid Princess Changle was the first woman in the Tang Dynasty to cut waist long hair.


    "It''s really beautiful! My brother-in-law has a good eye!" exclaimed the princesses.


    It has to be said that Princess Changle does have a hairstyle with long waist hair, which perfectly sets off the temperament of Princess Changle, otherwise Merton would not recommend it to Princess Changle.


    "It''s the only one in the world!" Princess Gaoyang said in her heart, "good looks are good looks, but if you don''t make a bun in the future, it''s easy to fall off!"


    The princesses also worried one after another, just as today''s gold thread easily slipped.


    Princess Changle said carelessly, "it''s nothing. Merton has specially designed a hairstyle for me, horsetail!"


    With that, Princess Changle picked up a headrope and tied her waist long hair together. Suddenly, Princess Changle''s waist length hair fell naturally like a bunch of horsetail, and another youthful and beautiful temperament appeared in an instant, which was fresh and neat.


    "How is it?" Princess Changle proudly shook her hair, like a horse shaking its tail.


    "Good looking!" the princesses nodded and gathered around Princess Changle, looking at Princess Changle''s ponytail with envy.


    Only one side of Princess Gaoyang, who lowered her head and lost, showed a sneer on her face. Princess Changle may not realize that although her hair is waist high, it is also a haircut.


    Parents who are physically and emotionally affected dare not be hurt, and filial piety begins! Although there is a doctor sun''s explanation, I don''t know what I would think if it reached my father''s ears.


    I''m in the harem. I''m afraid the news of Changle''s haircut will reach Li Shimin''s ears soon.


    indeed.


    In the Lizheng palace, Li Shimin saw and heard the news of Changle''s haircut, and couldn''t help gnashing his teeth and saying:


    "Mojiazi!"


    Li Shimin is sad to find that since he met the Mexican family, his gentle, generous, dignified and steady princess has gone forever and will never come back.

 Chapter 610

    Three surprises a day!


    Merton has not yet arrived in Chang''an City, and the news in Chang''an City naturally reached Merton''s ears at the first time!


    "I really admire ink sacrificing wine, who is thousands of miles away, but can stir up the situation in Chang''an!" Gao Shilian looked at Merton with short hair next to him and joked.


    "Don''t laugh any more, Lord Gao. The boy is weak and timid, but he can''t stand such a big scare!" Merton said bitterly.


    "Very timid? From my point of view, you are bold. We can wantonly destroy the Chinese tradition for thousands of years. What else do you dare not do?" Gao Shilian said.


    Merton suddenly lost his face and said, "but this is obviously a great good thing! But why are there so many objections?"


    Gao Shilian could not help it. Of course, he knew the benefits of hair cutting, otherwise he would not let Merton publicize the benefits of hair cutting in the army.


    "When Qu Yuan shouted, everyone was drunk and I woke up alone. I''m afraid it was the same mentality as ink sacrifice!" Gao Shilian sighed.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Lord Gao is over praised. How can the boy compare with Qu Yuan''s concern for the country and the people? What the boy asks is that the people all over the world can have a healthy body and be free from parasites."


    Gao Shilian nodded and said, "so Qu Yuan lost, and your boy still has some hope!"


    "A little hope?" Merton looked at Gao Shilian puzzled.


    Gao Shilian nodded and said, "I think you have some hope because you plan not to spend money!"


    "No money?" Merton suddenly looked black.


    Gao Shilian nodded and said, "now it doesn''t cost a penny to cure the stubborn disease, but you have to endure secular eyes and criticism. If you don''t take the lead in cutting your hair, I naturally don''t value this side. Now for the poor people, you take the lead, doctors echo, and natural responders gather."


    Merton was relieved and relaxed: "thank you, Lord Gao!"


    Gao Shilian waved his hand and said, "don''t thank me first. The people are naturally free, but you don''t have to feel better about the chaotang pass."


    Merton''s face turned black when he thought of those old and stubborn civil servants. This time, he must be heckled when he returned to Chang''an city.


    "Chang''an city is here!" suddenly a cheering came from the front.


    Merton could not help but stretch his head forward and saw the tall wall of Chang''an City in front of him.


    "Chang''an City, we are back!" Merton also sighed in his heart. In a twinkling of an eye, half a year has passed since they set out from Chang''an city to return.


    The news of the return of the army naturally spread to Chang''an City, and the people of Chang''an city immediately poured out of Chang''an city. First, they spontaneously supported the victorious army.


    On the other hand, people are eager to witness Merton''s flat hairstyle that has spread all over Chang''an City before he returns.


    "That''s the MOH family!"


    "Sure enough, it''s the same as the picture, with short hair!"


    "It is said that the Mohist school also named it flat head!"


    "However, how do I think the flat head distribution of mojiazi is also very good-looking."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many people on both sides of the brick road pointed at Merton one after another.


    Merton did not change his face. He still sat on the horse with high spirits, showing no timidity at all.


    Seeing this, Gao Shilian could not help nodding secretly, and his evaluation of Merton was a little higher. However, he did not know that Merton had short hair for decades in his previous life and naturally had no psychological burden.


    To Merton''s slight disappointment, there was no so-called bridge section for all civil and military officials to go out of the city to meet, because that was the treatment for Li Jing to return to Chang''an city. It was pound, an old acquaintance of Merton and Li Shimin''s close eunuch, who was responsible for receiving Merton and Gao Shilian.


    "Thank you, father-in-law!" Murton bowed.


    Pound looked at Merton''s strange flat hairstyle, twitched at the corners of his mouth, and forcibly held back: "it''s been hard all the way with Lord Gao. His majesty and all civil and military officials have been waiting in the Tai Chi hall."


    At this moment, the army naturally cannot enter Chang''an city. Its own generals lead them back to the west mountain to return to camp, while pound is here to wait for Merton and Gao Shilian.


    Gao Shilian glanced at Merton and said with a smile, "let''s go. Don''t keep your majesty waiting."


    Merton nodded helplessly, his heart crossed, and followed pound on the carriage that had been prepared. Sooner or later, this level could not be avoided. It would be better to come earlier.


    The carriage went all the way East, turned into Zhuque Avenue and went straight to Taiji hall.


    Tai Chi hall.


    All officials were discussing the matter when a notice came from outside the hall!


    "Inform your majesty that all the troops of the western expedition have returned, and Mo sacrificial wine and Lord Gao have been waiting outside the hall."


    Suddenly, there was a silence in the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty. One by one, they couldn''t help looking at Kong Yingda in the civil service. Everyone knew that a big debate between Confucianism and Mohism was inevitable.


    Li Shimin heard the speech and put down the memorial in his hand. He could have handled the matter coldly, but he was angry at the thought that Princess Changle cut her waist long hair. If he didn''t take the opportunity to embarrass the Mo family, he would act recklessly for Li Er.


    "Xuan!" Li Shimin said coldly.


    "Xuanmo offering wine, Lord Gao entering the hall!" a bodyguard shouted in a lengthened voice.


    Soon, it went on and soon reached Merton.


    Gao Shilian nodded and just wanted to take a step. Suddenly, he found that Merton''s momentum suddenly changed. He looked up, straightened his chest, closed his abdomen, looked straight ahead, put his hands on the trouser seams and closed his heels.


    Although Merton followed behind Gao Shilian, Gao Shilian heard that Merton''s every step was sonorous and powerful, like stepping on a drum, like a soldier on the battlefield.


    They climbed the steps of the Tai Chi hall step by step. With Merton''s sonorous and powerful steps, they immediately attracted the attention of all the forbidden guards in the palace.


    Under the gaze of a group of guards, the two entered the Tai Chi hall with high spirits. Merton once again became the focus of the whole audience. It was only a short 20 steps from the entrance of the Tai Chi hall to the forefront of all officials. However, it was Merton''s vigorous military steps that completely conquered a group of courtiers.


    Even if the civil servants no longer dislike Merton, they have to admit that Merton''s move is full of masculine beauty. In the eyes of the military general, the pace standard of Merton''s every step is sonorous and powerful. At first glance, it is a symbol of soldiers, but it is very different from ordinary soldiers.


    Li Jing''s eyes suddenly lit up, which was the template of the most ideal recruit plan in his mind. If all the officers and men in the army are as dignified and full of sunshine as Merton, the image of the soldier may change 180 degrees immediately.


    Merton''s sharp edges and corners, flat hair style not only does not make all officials strange, but adds a third temperament to Merton''s pace, as if this flat hair style is naturally fit for the army.


    Even Li Shimin had to sigh in his heart. Merton''s appearance was really amazing, and his anger dissipated unconsciously.

 Chapter 611

    "Wei Chen Gao Shilian, see the emperor!"


    "Weichen Merton, see the emperor!"


    Gao Shilian and Merton saluted almost at the same time. Gao Shilian adopted the etiquette of civil officials, while Merton was the ceremony of military generals.


    "Gao Aiqing has worked hard!" Li Shimin smiled at Gao Shilian.


    Gao Shilian is not only an important official in the court, but also the uncle of the empress Chang sun''s family. He is also the highest ranking official in the Guanlong family. He is the best candidate to take charge of Lanzhou. In addition, he is too old to travel thousands of miles.


    "Your Majesty is flattered. There is a brick road. The four-wheel carriage is as stable as the ground. This is the easiest time for me to take office!" said Gao Shilian. This time in Lanzhou, except for two long journeys to Tuyuhun, he was very relaxed with four-wheel carriages.


    Li Shimin nodded. During this western expedition, the brick road from Chang''an to Lanzhou played an important role, which made the imperial court pay more and more attention to the brick road.


    "Gao Aiqing came back at the right time. Gao Aiqing''s method of providing relief by work is really a wonderful plan. Now the flood in Shandong has receded. With the concerted efforts of millions of victims, 300 Li brick road has been built in a short time, and 700 Li brick road subgrade has been laid!" Li Shimin said excitedly.


    In the past, food was distributed to the victims, which often led to corruption and injustice. Moreover, the victims had nothing to do, which was easy to cause trouble.


    The wonder of work for relief is that the food distributed by the imperial court is not free, but work in exchange for food. That is, it has built a lot of infrastructure for the imperial court and skillfully controlled the victims. More work, more gain. You can''t blame others for less work and less gain.


    Under a major flood, millions of victims not only survived safely, but also built a large number of brick roads for the imperial court. The remaining 700 Li brick roads are in full swing to make red bricks. Once the red bricks are in place, the brick roads can be formed.


    Moreover, compared with the cost of the brick road in the first section of Luoyang, Chang''an, the cost of using the brick road built by the victims is less than one quarter. That is, the victims have been resettled and so many brick roads have been built for the imperial court. How can Li Shimin not be satisfied.


    "Work for relief is really a good policy for the country and the people. If this is not a disaster relief policy of the imperial court, it should be a use case!" Gao Shilian bowed.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "yes!"


    Gao Shilian looked at Merton, who was still holding his head high, and said in his heart, "in fact, this is not what Weichen thought, but the idea of offering wine to mo. Weichen really didn''t dare to take credit."


    "Mojiazi!"


    The eyes of all officials immediately stared at Merton. After Merton got up at the moment, he always maintained a high-spirited posture and his body was tall and straight, which made people can''t help but brighten his eyes, especially Li Jing. Since Merton''s first step into the Tai Chi hall, his eyes never left Merton''s body, and the more he looked, the brighter his eyes became.


    Li Shimin naturally knew that this was the joint signature of Merton and Gao Shilian, but he wanted to air Merton. Seeing Gao Shilian say so, Li Shimin had to look at Merton and say, "it''s hard for ink to sacrifice wine!"


    This was originally a polite remark of Li Shimin, but he didn''t expect Merton to be strong and suddenly shouted, "return to your majesty, I''m not hard!"


    Merton''s voice was almost like shouting out with all his voices, which immediately stunned the whole court.


    Taiji hall is the important place of the imperial court. Usually, all officials speak in harmony. Even if it is a struggle in the imperial court, it is also a reasoned argument. Where have you heard such a hoarse answer.


    Li Shimin was also startled. He couldn''t help looking at Merton angrily and jokingly and said, "others ask for work. It''s polite. You''re crisp."


    Merton held his neck high and said forcefully: "Your Majesty, the last general is now a soldier of the Tang Dynasty. As a soldier, he can only answer yes or no! There is no polite power."


    Merton''s words immediately attracted the attention of a group of military generals. Li Jing''s eyes flashed and his heart was touched. Merton''s words can be said to tell the true meaning of the military. In the military, there is no polite power. The military order will either succeed or die.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be touched. Merton entered the Tai Chi hall from the beginning, and directly expressed a soldier''s temperament incisively and vividly from his steps, standing posture and speech.


    Li Shimin also started his career in the army. He is naturally familiar with military affairs. In particular, Merton said that soldiers can only answer yes and no, which is a hundred times more useful than the flattery of the ministers!


    Moreover, Merton did sit on what he said just now, accurately calculated Tiangou''s victory over Tuyuhun, accurately confirmed the location of Tuyuhun''s tribes by using mathematics, plunged into the desert, pursued Fuyun thousands of miles, and finally solved the financial crisis of Datang by himself. Merton answered yes to all these actions, and did all of them.


    Thinking of this, Li Shimin''s dissatisfaction with Merton immediately decreased by three points.


    Even civil servants can''t help praising Merton. Merton''s skill is beautiful. However, it''s impossible for civil servants to let Merton go so easily.


    "Your Majesty, please play Merton to encourage the officers and men in the army to cut their hair and shake the foundation of the country. It is for disloyalty, forgetting their ancestors and destroying the Millennium etiquette of the Tang Dynasty. It is for unfilial. Please punish these disloyal and unfilial people severely!" Kong Yingda said with a sad face.


    "Your Majesty, please severely punish this chief villain, correct the outline of the court and eliminate the unhealthy tendencies in the world." soon, all civil servants played one after another.


    Except for several important officials in the court who have not stated their position, almost half of the literary ministers have complained against Merton in unison.


    Even Li Shimin could not help taking a breath. The strength of so many civil servants gathered together, even if he should not only treat it carefully.


    However, Merton did not change his face and bowed to Li Shimin: "please defend yourself, my minister."


    Li Shimin''s face was dignified and solemnly said, "yes!"


    Merton was ordered to stand at attention! Take the left heel as the axis, apply force to the left heel and the front of the right palm at the same time, twist 90 degrees, and the feet quickly close together.


    In the process of turning around, his legs were straight and his upper body maintained a standing posture. Such a novel action not only brightened the eyes of the military general, but also made Li Shimin applaud it. I have to say that Merton''s actions were so handsome.


    At the moment, Gao Shilian, like an old fox, had quietly retreated to the forefront of a civil servant, and the whole dynasty formed a scene in which Merton faced a group of civil servants alone.


    At the moment, Merton was like a generous soldier who died. He rushed to the enemy position alone. Suddenly, a tragic atmosphere filled the imperial court.

 Chapter 612

    "Today we use the method of famous experts to argue what filial piety is!" Merton solemnly said to a group of civil servants.


    Kong Yingda is no stranger to the famous master''s method. This method has been very popular among students since it was brought to the Imperial College by Merton.


    "The more reason you argue, the more clear you are! The Tang Dynasty governs the country with filial piety. I also want to hear the understanding of Confucianism and Mohism about filial piety and righteousness." Li Shimin laughed. Although he seemed fair, he actually gave Merton the opportunity to defend himself.


    Kong Yingda snorted coldly, "what is filial piety? Filial piety is the foundation of morality! Filial piety is the word. The upper is the old and the lower is the son. It is extremely filial to inherit his two parents and follow his will!"


    "What Confucius said in offering wine is reasonable. Confucius said that if you enter, you will be filial, if you leave, you will be fraternal, and love the people. If you are kind and have spare power, you will learn literature. Filial piety and righteousness are the foundation of the country and the foundation of our Chinese civilization. How can people trample on them wantonly and be sure to be angry." Quan Wanji said coldly.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of civil servants agreed one after another, and suddenly Merton became the target of thousands of people.


    "Well, now it''s the opposition''s turn to speak!" Li Shimin became a referee with great interest.


    The civil servants stopped and glared at Merton one by one.


    Facing the indignant pressure of the officials, Merton took a deep breath: "Mohism advocates both love and filial piety!"


    "The well-known MOH family can say one thing and do another!" Kong Yingda snorted coldly.


    Suddenly, the whole hall burst into laughter, and the civil servants impeaching Merton immediately looked at Merton with ironic eyes.


    Merton said without shame: "the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, the son wants to raise but his parents are not here. It is a great regret in life that Mo''s parents died early and failed to be filial. However, in filial piety, human relations are in the heart but not in the form, but judging filial piety and unfilial by hair style is probably a joke in the world."


    Kong Yingda retorted, "if your parents who are physically and physically affected destroy their hair wantonly, you can''t even do this filial piety well. Talk about how to be filial and impeach loyal monarchs to serve the country!"


    Merton looked at Kong Yingda and said, "Mo wants to ask Confucius if you have cut your hair and beard. According to your theory, are you unfilial? I''m afraid the whole world is unfilial!"


    On the court hall, all officials were embarrassed. Since ancient times, who can not cut his hair and ignore his beard,


    Kong Ying''s breath stagnated when she reached Dayton, and she hardened her head and retorted, "I''m just a little trim and scissors. I haven''t damaged my hair accessories. I''m not like Mo Hou, who has ruined my Chinese etiquette for thousands of years!"


    Merton shook his head and said: "The ancients believed that hair was the continuation of life. Secondly, the ancients lacked cold protection and hair was a rare warm thing. After a long time of evolution, the hair decoration etiquette of our Chinese civilization has nothing to do with filial piety and unfilial! But now doctors have declared that hair and nails are exogenous things of the human body, which are not painful and itchy The human body is harmless. If you don''t cut it, it''s inconvenient to behave. Insect diseases are rampant. Boy, please ask Kong Jijiu if the nail is the recipient''s parents, why can you cut it, and why can''t you cut the hair. Since the recipient''s parents can''t cut it, is it unfilial to cut the nail? "


    When Kong Ying arrived at Dayton''s speech, other Confucian officials also dodged their eyes. It would be very inconvenient for a person not to cut his nails. He couldn''t lift his hands and even had difficulty eating. Everyone habitually cut off his nails. All officials ignored this fatal problem.


    "Kong Sheng is the most holy teacher. His words mean a lot, especially those you yellow haired boy can blaspheme." Quan Wanji immediately gave a voice to support Kong Yingda when he saw Kong Yingda''s defeat.


    "Mencius said: if you believe in books, it''s better to have no books! The boy acknowledges the greatness of Kong Sheng, but for the sake of rigid hair ornaments, you ignore the health of the people all over the world. The boy believes that this must not be Kong Sheng''s original intention." Merton retorted.


    Merton''s words immediately made Li Shimin nod in his heart. As an emperor, he pursues external Confucianism and internal law. He is a tyrant and miscellaneous. A sentence in the Confucian filial piety Sutra can not be compared with the health of the people all over the world.


    "The filial piety Sutra is the foundation of our filial piety in the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the Holy Scripture of our Confucianism! How can you interpret it wantonly by a son of Mohism." Kong Yingda was angry and defeated the evil way.


    Merton solemnly said, "if the parents dare not damage their body and skin, and filial piety begins, the boy will argue with this sentence. If the parents personally shave their son''s hair and eradicate head lice, is it against filial piety? Or! If a person''s parents die early, is his hair cutting against filial piety?"


    Kong Ying was stunned at Dayton and was sweating.


    Merton took advantage of the victory and pursued: "since Kong Jijiu can''t answer, the boy said it for you. That''s because it is after the emergence of the filial piety Sutra that really connects hair and filial piety. Therefore, what you strive to maintain is not our hair decoration tradition of thousands of years in China, but the orthodoxy of your Kong family''s filial piety Sutra! Your position has been biased from the beginning!"


    "You!" Kong Yingda only felt a surge of blood. He thought he was righteous, but Merton ruthlessly exposed his disguise and exposed his selfishness in the court.


    "Kun''s hair is the hair ornament of barbarians, because your Mohist family took the lead and the people all over the world scrambled to follow suit. Once our Chinese hair ornament civilization was destroyed, you Merton and Mohist family will be the biggest sinners in China!" Quan Wanji shouted.


    Many civil servants suddenly rekindled their fighting spirit. Merton''s truth is more, but there is a fatal problem, that is, breaking hair in the Tang Dynasty is a kind of Kun punishment and a humiliation to people. Merton''s move is to let the people all over the world follow suit and destroy thousands of years of Chinese tradition.


    Merton retorted: "in the pre-Qin period, Nanyue people Kun hair, which is stored in the Central Plains. In my opinion, the biggest problem is that Nanyue is hot all year round. Hair is the most warm thing, but Nanyue doesn''t need it. This is Kun hair, which has nothing to do with etiquette, but convenience. I''m afraid in the eyes of Nanyue people, it''s hard to understand that my Han head has long hair!"


    For others, Merton''s words are naturally casting pearls before swine, but for those who used to be officials in the south, they have a deep understanding. It''s very hot in the south. I''m afraid long hair is the biggest burden in the long summer.


    Especially for Feng Zhidai, he most agrees with Merton''s view. When he was in Gaozhou, he cut his hair directly because the weather was too hot. He didn''t grow long hair until after Chang''an City, but every summer is his most difficult time.


    Of course, Feng Zhidai will not help Merton at the moment. Instead, he said, "nonsense. Now the southerners are proud to store their hair. This is the result of our Chinese etiquette education. This move of mohou makes the people in the Central Plains Kun hair and emulate the barbarians. If the south is unstable over time, you Merton will be the biggest sinner!"


    Merton said happily, "Confucius said: choose the good and follow it, and change the bad. I''m afraid the Hufu riding and shooting in King Zhao Wuling''s time was just like Kun FA''s today. Everyone opposed it. Since the prosperity of Chinese civilization, we have relied on the inclusiveness of all rivers, rather than complacency."


    As for the story of Hu Fu''s riding and shooting, I''m afraid all the officials in the court are the most clear. However, when the state of Zhao declined and often lost the war, King Zhao Wuling was broad-minded. He saw that the Hu people had some special advantages in military clothing: wearing narrow sleeves and short coats was more convenient for living, hunting and fighting; The cavalry, bow and arrow used in combat have greater flexibility and mobility than the military vehicles and spears in the Central Plains.


    He decided to imitate the costumes and combat methods of the Hu people. King Zhao Wuling put forward the idea of "wearing Hu clothes" and "learning to ride and shoot" in Handan city. He was determined to take the advantages of the Hu people to make up for the shortcomings of the Central Plains, but he encountered great obstacles in the process of reform! All officials refused to accept Hu Fu on the grounds of "changing the ancient way and contrary to people''s heart",


    "Ancient and modern benefits are different, and it is easy to use far and near! This is what king Lingwu of Zhao persuaded Zhao people to be strict. Now Kun FA has cured head lice, and the people are healthy. It is easy to use from north to south!" Merton shouted.


    Merton quoted scriptures. Confucius and Mencius said that they came at once. They also quoted scriptures, but Confucianism did not lose the slightest.

 Chapter 613

    With the example of Hufu riding and shooting, Merton Kun FA''s treatment of lice immediately became persuasive. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help but be convinced. The Tang Dynasty was extremely open, and the advantages of Kun FA were obvious to all. For a moment, many people''s resistance decreased a lot.


    "What is filial piety in our debate today? I''m afraid it''s a partial topic." Quan Wanji immediately turned the topic when he saw that the momentum was wrong.


    Merton saw that the effect had been achieved and did not entangle more on this topic! Instead, they reopened the debate on filial piety: "Filial piety is more important than form, but we put the cart before the horse. The most obvious one is that in the Han Dynasty, observing filial piety and honesty was very popular. At that time, many scholars did everything they needed to show their filial piety in order to be an official. The boy believes that the purpose is to be an official, not filial piety! More people resort to fraud in order to be an official. Baopuzi by Ge Hong, an eminent Taoist He once satirized this phenomenon, saying: if you raise scholars, you don''t know books; if you observe filial piety and honesty, your father lives separately. The cold is as white as mud, and all the courtiers in gaoman Dynasty are silent.


    "The boy also believes that people all over the world should pay more attention to filial piety before death than burial after death. A greeting before death is better than crying for three days after death, and a bowl of hot rice before death is better than three years of filial piety! This is the filial piety that parents all over the world need, rather than allowing some people to gain fame for themselves in the name of filial piety and righteousness. It will lose the essence of filial piety, which is a greater stain on filial piety!" Merton''s words were enlightening, and everyone couldn''t help thinking for a while.


    "Filial piety is not obedience!"


    "Filial piety before death!"


    "A greeting before death is better than crying for three days."


    "A bowl of hot rice before death is better than three years of filial piety!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Unprecedented views have directly impacted the Three Outlooks of the people in the court. In this era, once their parents die, they must be filial for three years. Ordinary people will be filial for three years. Their families will lose their livelihood and suddenly become poor. Officials will be filial for three years and their official career will be interrupted. Now Merton can speak everyone''s voice.


    "This is the real filial piety, the purest filial piety in the world, without any utilitarian filial piety!" Merton was sonorous and powerful word by word.

 Chapter 614

    "True filial piety!"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help muttering.


    Even a group of officials were not only silent, but Merton mercilessly exposed the utilitarian and formalization of filial piety, and put forward the real filial piety.


    If the children are slightly unhappy, they will be crowned with the name of unfilial! Some people are more filial to their reputation. They are harsh to their parents during their lifetime. Many people are extravagant and wasteful after death. They hold funerals and show filial piety in front of people! Is this really filial piety?


    Although this is the thought of Mohist Festival burial, Merton extends it to filial piety before death, but the thought of festival burial after death makes people think deeply.


    Li Shimin also couldn''t help sighing: "filial piety is the purest thing in the world, but now it is mixed with utilitarianism. It is indeed against the essence of filial piety to ignore it before death and bury it after death."


    Li Shimin is not unfamiliar with this phenomenon.


    "Tell your majesty that filial piety and righteousness are mixed with utilitarianism, but it leads the people all over the world to advocate filial piety and righteousness, which is conducive to educating the people. Generally speaking, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages." unexpectedly, changsun Wuji suddenly spoke for Confucianism.


    A group of literati can''t help but look at their eldest sun Wuji with gratitude. Li Shimin can''t help nodding. It has to be said that Xiaoyi occupies a core position in Chinese civilization and will vigorously advocate Xiaoyi in any dynasty.


    Merton took an unexpected look at the eldest sun Wuji, but took advantage of the situation and said: "the boy also agrees with the eldest sun Wuji''s point of view. It is with the book of filial piety." The family ethics of fatherly and filial piety of the Chinese civilization can only be attributed to the wide spread of filial piety. However, it is not enough to go too far. Now the world has a biased understanding of filial piety, and there have been many foolish filial piety things that make people laugh and laugh. I beg your majesty to make a preface to the filial piety Sutra in person, review the filial piety Sutra again, and give the people all over the world the name of positive filial piety! "


    The filial piety Sutra handed down by later generations is the version of the preface written by Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty. Today, Merton will review the filial piety Sutra several decades in advance. I''m afraid that with Li Er''s experience, he can''t do the harsh filial piety ethics that children have to obey their parents.


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up immediately. He killed his brother and imprisoned father because he was criticized by the world for his filial piety. If he could personally make a preface for filial piety and review the filial piety scriptures, he would certainly be able to change his image. Merton''s suggestion could be said to be right in his heart.


    "What Mo said in offering wine is very true. Your majesty is the best person to re read the filial piety Sutra." eldest sun Wuji naturally knew Li Shimin''s intention and agreed.


    Other dignitaries agreed one after another. Since the Confucian and Mohist families had a dispute about filial piety, it would be better if Li Shimin came forward to solve it.


    Even a group of civil servants had to nod in agreement. After all, this was the best result, and with Li Shimin''s re preface and revision of the filial piety classic, its reputation would certainly be at the height of the sun.


    Li Shimin was shocked. He said with a pleasant face: "in that case, I will be kind for the sake of filial piety in the world."


    Merton added: "in addition, the boy believes that filial piety and unfilial piety should be redefined in the Tang law. Some people who abuse the elderly and do not support their parents should be severely punished, and some people who are most filial should be rewarded. Only by punishing evil and promoting good, can the filial piety of the Tang Dynasty really spread all over the world."


    The Manchu courtiers could not help but look at Merton unexpectedly. Such a suggestion is a good way.


    Li Shimin nodded, nodded to Fang Xuanling and said, "leave it to Fang Aiqing and add it to the law of Zhenguan!"


    Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "I take orders!"


    Just now, the law of Zhenguan is being revised, and it takes little labor to change it again.


    Kong Ying''s face was bitter when she reached Dayton. Filial piety was originally a tool of Confucianism. Now she has joined the law of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid Legalists have also mixed it. I''m afraid Confucianism will be tied up if it wants to use filial piety as a weapon in the future.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but sigh that he revised the filial piety Classic again and standardized it according to the laws of the great Tang Dynasty. I have to say that Merton was not only sharp in mouth, but also one by one, and it was quite feasible.


    However, as an emperor, he didn''t only talk about right and wrong, but also worried about the huge civil service team in the court. At present, he looked at Merton and said, "Merton, read that merlie died early and cut his hair. Even if you don''t violate filial piety, as a court official, you have short hair, corrupt our Chinese etiquette, and pay a salary for half a year as an example!"


    Li Shimin did not directly define hair cutting as unfilial. In fact, he has already expressed his attitude. In fact, the salary penalty for half a year is an explanation to a group of civil servants.


    "Ah!"


    Merton was shocked and looked at Li Shimin discontentedly. His salary was already small. Now he has been fined for half a year. Isn''t it worse.


    But when he saw Li Shimin''s fierce eyes, he could only bow his hands reluctantly and say, "I know my mistake!"


    During the western expedition, he didn''t make any money. However, he just returned to Chang''an City and was fined for half a year on the basis of the original salary. The bride price he promised is still far away. Sometimes he doubts whether Li Shimin deliberately punished him for salary.


    Although many civil servants were helpless, they had to swallow the bitter fruit, which can be seen by people with a clear eye. In this debate, Confucianism is a complete defeat. Li Shimin''s punishment of Merton is just the last layer of shame cloth of Confucianism. If Confucianism doesn''t know phase again, I''m afraid there will be no face in it.


    Since then, all the officials discussed the matter as usual, and none of the people in the court mentioned Merton''s broken hair. Even if Merton''s flat head was as dazzling as a 100 watt light bulb in later generations, Kong Yingda could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin had to end the meeting in a hurry.


    "Retreat!"


    When Merton heard these two words, he immediately disappeared at the fastest speed, which disappointed Li Jing who was ready to talk to Merton about the recruit plan.


    Merton didn''t go far. Just slipped out of the Tai Chi hall, he saw the maids of the Changle palace waiting, and immediately swaggered towards the Changle hall.


    "Brother in law is coming!"


    In the Changle palace, when the princesses who had been waiting here saw Merton''s arrival, they immediately made a noise and rushed out of the Palace door. When they saw Merton''s tall and straight body and a flat head, they couldn''t help but brighten their eyes when they walked to the Changle palace.


    At the moment, although Princess Changle looked shy, she met her firmly. Behind her head, the horse tail tied with waist length hair shook.


    "You cut the horse''s tail!"


    Merton saw this fairy like woman coming step by step with her horse''s tail, and the memories of this and previous lives immediately flooded into his heart.


    Princess Changle proudly shook her head and asked, "isn''t it beautiful?"


    Merton''s voice was a little hoarse, but he said firmly, "good looking! This is the best hairstyle in the world."


    What moved Merton more was not the familiar horsetail hairstyle of later generations, but the unconditional trust of Princess Changle in him and the same haircut at the risk of universal condemnation. How could Merton not be moved by this trust.


    "I''m lucky to have a woman like this!" Murton said in his heart.


    They immediately stood side by side. A group of princesses suddenly found that flat head with horsetail, general with princess, Merton and Princess Changle were a perfect match.

 Chapter 615

    "My brother-in-law came back from a long journey. There must be a lot to say to my sister, little sister, I won''t disturb my sister." Princess Yuzhang smiled and left quickly with a group of princesses.


    Princess Changle blushed and glared at Princess Yuzhang.


    The princesses were not afraid at all. They all left laughing. When they got to a distance, Princess Gaoyang reluctantly turned back and looked at Merton with short hair. Suddenly, she felt that Merton''s hairstyle was 100 times better than men''s common long hair accessories.


    Although Princess Gaoyang was very clever in front of Li Shimin, she was very rebellious in her heart. Merton''s Maverick and unconventional hairstyle immediately made Princess Gaoyang feel like a bosom friend.


    However, seeing Princess Changle standing beside Merton, Princess Gaoyang can only bury this feeling in her heart and turn around to leave with the princesses.


    When Princess Gaoyang returned to her palace, a maid of honor immediately welcomed her and said with a happy face: "tell the princess, just now the eldest grandson sent someone to send a lot of silk and satin, as well as rouge and gouache in Suzhou, each of which is a rare boutique."


    Princess Gaoyang raised her eyebrows when she heard the speech, and suddenly slapped the maid in waiting in the face.


    "Princess!" the maid burst into tears and looked pitifully at Princess Gaoyang.


    Princess Gaoyang snorted coldly. She couldn''t help getting bored. What she needed was not these vulgar things. What she wanted was a man to take her on adventures, see the most beautiful wonders, the most interesting stories and say the most moving love words in the world, and she would return him a duty bound love and follow him to death.


    "Father emperor, why are you so cruel?" Princess Gaoyang plunged into her bedroom and choked.


    Li Shimin ordered the world to advocate both men and women to marry voluntarily, but ignored her. Although it is reasonable that as long as she declares that she doesn''t like Chang sun Chong, the marriage will naturally come to an end!


    However, the royal family has repented of marriage with Chang sun Chong once. If she repents again, I''m afraid Chang sun Chong will certainly become the biggest laughing stock in the world. In this way, Gao Yang will offend the Chang Sun family, the Chang Sun Queen and the father emperor.


    Princess Gaoyang can stand in the back palace, so she depends on the upbringing of empress changsun and the love of Li Shimin. If she loses these, she will have nothing. Even if she marries others again, who dares to offend the sunrise changsun family for her.


    In this way, women all over the world have the opportunity to choose marriage, but Princess Gaoyang doesn''t, and no man in the world has the courage and ability to save a princess''s marriage like Merton.


    Suddenly, Princess Gaoyang felt abandoned by the world, and all kinds of resentment poured into her heart.


    Not to mention Princess Gaoyang''s self pity, Merton and Princess Changle met again after a long separation in the Changle palace. Naturally, there will be a lot to say. At the moment, even Liu e retreated.


    "At that time, voyun Tuyuhun was arrogant and arrogant with 300000 iron cavalry. He rushed to the positions of the Tang army all over the world,......."


    Princess Changle looked at Merton''s beautiful face and was immediately worried. Merton''s words turned: "sooner or later, the general waved his big hand and countless gunpowder bombs flew out of the military array, which extinguished Tuyuhun''s arrogance......"


    Princess Changle looked at Merton admiringly. She didn''t know that the countless in Merton''s mouth were just ten gunpowder bullets. Perhaps in front of his beloved, Merton''s IQ, which is unparalleled in arithmetic, directly retreats to zero.


    Merton''s face was not red and his heart did not jump. He continued to boast: "when the two armies were fighting, it was suddenly dark. It was just the moment when the general pinched his fingers and counted. It was the moment when Tiangou ate the sun. At the moment, heaven and earth were reversed day and night, yin and Yang were reversed, and the spitting army was immediately in a panic. He thought it was the coming of heaven''s punishment."


    "At this time, the general''s military order flag, the skyrocketing fireworks rose, and the whole battlefield was illuminated. Under the panic of the spitting army, the army was defeated like a mountain. When the dog food day was over, the spitting army''s corpses were everywhere, and the victory of our army was determined..." Merton said proudly.


    "Wow!" Princess Changle suddenly exclaimed. Although she had never seen fireworks, she could imagine what a magnificent, thrilling and exciting scene it was just based on Merton''s description.


    Merton took advantage of the situation to hold Princess Changle''s slender jade hand. Princess Changle''s face turned red and didn''t break away. Instead, Merton was closely linked with Merton. Merton got a response and immediately settled in her heart.


    "After Fuyun''s defeat, he set fire to the grassland, making the war horses lack grass, and tried to force our army to retreat in spite of difficulties. However, he despised our officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. He immediately divided his troops into two routes, brought enough dry food, overcome many difficulties, and pursued Tuyuhun in the South and the north at the same time.


    Merton said the strategy of the army. His two hands were equally divided. With Tuyuhun breaking through the strategic areas one by one, the strategic areas of Princess Changle also fell one after another.


    "It was frosting in midsummer, and the whole army was short of water, such as mince ice and horse fodder snow..." Merton said that when it snowed in midsummer and the whole army was short of water, he saw a touch of snow white and his mouth became dry in an instant.


    "Fu Yun fled in a hurry. The army chased thousands of miles and crossed mountains all the way. There were many difficulties..."


    Merton''s plan to climb mountains and mountains was also full of difficulties. Fortunately, he finally overcame many difficulties and finally won the highland.


    "Finally, Fu Yun escaped into the 800 mile sea. The general ordered thousands of horses and chased into the vast desert. The cool sun shone on his back like a fire. It was hot and painful..."


    "Ah!"


    Merton suddenly felt a hot pain from his two armies and couldn''t help but exhale.


    "Princess, what''s the matter?" Liu e''s voice immediately came from outside the hall.


    "It''s all right. The general was scalded after drinking tea." Merton angrily withdrew his two armies. He couldn''t help feeling very sorry. He came back with the victory of the western expedition, but the expedition was defeated like a mountain.


    Princess Changle quickly arranged her clothes and said with a red face, "it''s all right, Liu e!"


    "Princess, the maidservant is outside the hall. Please say hello if you have something." Liu e shouted, but Merton clearly heard it, and the warning was very obvious.


    Merton couldn''t help touching his nose in embarrassment, with a look of bitterness!


    "Fool! What''s the hurry!" Princess Changle said softly, leaning over and leaning her head against Merton''s chest.


    This time, Merton was not in a hurry, but gently hugged Princess Changle, and a sense of happiness came naturally.


    Merton suddenly thought of something and said bitterly, "I''ve been fined by your majesty for half a year. I''m afraid there''s no money for the bride price this time."


    Hearing the speech, Princess Changle immediately smiled and said angrily, "it''s not your ability to promise to earn money to get married."


    Merton immediately refused to accept the way: "you don''t know the general''s ability. This money can''t beat me. I think at the beginning, Tubo envoy Lu Dongzan put a thousand good horses and ten thousand liang of gold in front of me. The general didn''t even look at it."


    Princess Changle was immediately moved. This was the place where she fell in love with Merton. The gentleman loved money in a right way. Merton never made a black heart money. Then she said softly: "ice and snow has opened several stores this summer. The Red Cross Society has been on the right track. There is no need to continue to invest money. There are still a lot left, or..."


    Without waiting for Princess Changle to finish, Merton said flatly, "I''m the famous God of wealth in Chang''an city. How can I use your money? Don''t worry, it''s hard for me. When you''re sixteen, wait for you to marry into the Mohist family!"


    "Who wants to marry you!" Princess Changle was shy.


    Merton joked, "who wanted to pour the money just now?..."


    "You also said..." Princess Changle became angry. Merton not only realized the pain of the sun when chasing into the desert, but also was defeated like a mountain and directly kicked out of the door.


    Ignoring Liu e''s warning, Merton took a deep breath and stepped out of the palace with his head held high, ready to start an ambitious business of making money.


    As long as Li Er doesn''t make trouble, there should be, probably, maybe, no problem!

 Chapter 616

    "The young master is back!"


    When Merton appeared in his military uniform at the door of the ink house, the whole ink house immediately became a sensation.


    "Uncle Fu, Uncle Li, uncle Yu, Uncle Wang..."


    Merton greeted one by one and looked at the familiar figures. He couldn''t help being moved.


    "There are also many villagers who want to see the young master. I didn''t let them come when there are many people, so let me wait for some substitutes." Li Yilang said.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "no, no, I''ve only been away for half a year. It''s not a parting of life and death."


    Fu Bo laughed and said, "although the young master is far away in Tuyuhun, the young master''s achievements have been spread all over Chang''an city. Those boys also want to see the young master."


    Everyone also smiled. Although Li Jing contributed the most to the western expedition, Merton was the most popular one, especially the continuous reversal of yin and Yang on the day of the decisive battle.


    With the support of many Mohist villagers, Merton entered the newly dressed Mohist house! Looking at the familiar ink house, Merton''s nervous tension in the past six months relaxed.


    "Young master, it''s hard all the way. You''d better have a rest first!" when the voice of purple clothes sounded in his ear, Merton was already sleepy.


    When he woke up, Merton felt refreshed. Just when he wanted to get up, he felt a tingle all over. After a while, he recovered.


    "Young master, you''re awake!" Ziyi was surprised and hurriedly came forward to help Merton up and put on his clothes.


    "How long have I slept?" asked Merton.


    Purple clothes tooted his mouth and said, "young master slept all day and night at once. If doctor sun hadn''t come to check and said you were just too tired, we would be worried!"


    At the moment, the other people rushed into the room and were relieved to see Merton wake up.


    "I said the young master was fine. When we came down from the battlefield, none of us had to sleep in the dark." Li Yi laughed.


    Other Mohist villagers nodded one after another, but they were relieved when they saw Merton wake up.


    "Thank you, uncle and uncle. Things in Mojia village are busy. You have been in Mofu all day and night. Please go back and have a rest first!" Merton said.


    Li Yi and others couldn''t help hesitating for a while, and a look of embarrassment appeared on their faces.


    "Young master, actually..." Uncle Yu clenched his teeth to say something, but was pulled down by Li Yi privately. Then he stopped angrily.


    Merton''s heart sank suddenly. Is there an accident in Mojia village?


    Seeing this, fuber had to sigh and tell the truth: "Young master, the situation in Mojia village is not good now. Since the young master went to war, almost all industries in Mojia village have emerged a number of competitors, vigorously squeezing the market share of Mojia village. Moreover, the other party wantonly poached the good craftsmen trained by Mojia village and continuously cracked the secret skills of Mojia. Although its products are not as good as those produced by Mojia village, they are almost the same."


    Originally, many secrets were supposed to be held by Mohist children. However, a large number of Mohist children were taken out during the western expedition. Mohist village had to choose some people from the children of other villages to supplement them, which gave some people with ulterior motives the opportunity. The other party did everything. Many craftsmen trained by Mohist village were bought by them, and there were experts in the other party, so they cracked it The secret skill of Mohism.


    "I''ve been crazy about sniping at Mojia village in various industries. Today''s Mojia village is already under attack. If the young master didn''t lay a good foundation before leaving, maybe the Mojia village could not survive now." Uncle Yu said heavily.


    "All trades?" Murton frowned.


    "The distillation technology of jieqianchou has been cracked, and various restaurants have launched their own high-level wine and wantonly decomposed Qianchou. Instead of saying, they slander that the food brewed by jieqianchou uses toxic food produced by pesticides, which is harmful to human body! Today''s jieqianchou has a large number of unsalable products." one armed Uncle Wang shook his head and sighed.


    "Although the four-wheel carriage is better, anyone can see that the brick road is about to prevail. The competition between various car and horse shops is extremely fierce. Now it''s just a balance of revenue and expenditure!" fuber said.


    "The secret technology of steelmaking has also been cracked by the general. If it were not steel but a sharp weapon of the country, I''m afraid it would have been spread all over the Tang Dynasty, but the changsun family may have learned the secret technology of steelmaking." Li Yi sighed.


    "We worked together to keep the secret skills of snow salt, but we didn''t expect your boy to make salt openly in Lanzhou. Now fine salt is everywhere in Chang''an City, almost the same as the price of coarse salt. The snow salt in Mojia village also suffered heavy losses." Uncle Yu looked at Merton bitterly. In order to keep the cornucopia of snow and salt, they tried their best, but they were leaked out by Merton.


    Merton immediately looked embarrassed and hurriedly said, "is there anything wrong with the children of the Mohists?"


    "Thanks to the presence of Han Fuzi, ordinary curfews dare not invade. Coupled with his Majesty''s name of the first village in the world, others naturally dare not touch my Mozi children." Li Yidao.


    "Han Fu Zi!" Merton nodded. Han Zheng is a great sage of Legalists. There are countless students who have taught. As long as they are not trapped in prison, the children of the Mohists will naturally be free. Han Zheng is in charge. This is the reason why Merton can rest assured to go to the western expedition.


    "As long as people are all right, our Mojia village is not afraid of any opponent!" Merton said proudly.


    "However, our Mojia village has a backlog of goods and serious losses. Coupled with the layout of brick roads arranged by the young master, it costs a lot. If we go on like this, I''m afraid that Mojia village will be heavily in debt." Li Yi worried and handed over the account book of Mojia village.


    Merton took a look, and his face became more and more dignified. After a long time, he put down his account book and said, "so, in addition to glasses, all other industries in Mojia village have varying degrees of losses."


    The crowd nodded in shame. Before Merton left, Mojia village was booming and making money every day. However, Merton had only left for half a year, and Mojia village was already heavily in debt. As for glasses, there was no loss, but the cost of glasses was extremely low. They had been controlled in underground production without disclosure, but the output of glasses was very small, and although the profit was high, it was a drop in the bucket.


    "Now all the people in the Mojia village are looking forward to the young master''s return and leading the Mojia village to turn the world around." Li Yi looked forward to Merton.


    Other people in Mojia village also looked happy. Seeing Merton, they seemed to have found the backbone.


    However, to everyone''s disappointment, Merton shook his head firmly and said, "no, this time, I won''t help Mojia village through this pass."


    "Ah!"


    Everyone looked at Merton with an incredible face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "I can save Mojia village once or twice, but I can''t save it all the time. Now it''s only half a year, and the technical advantage of our Mojia village has not been lost. If on this basis, Mojia village can''t compete with other products, there is no need for this industry."


    Under the leadership of Merton, today''s Mojia village can expand so rapidly with its technical advantages. Now it has lost its technical advantages, and Mojia village has failed, which makes Merton see the disadvantages of Mojia village, so he is ready to rectify Mojia village.


    All the people in Mojia village were immediately ashamed. The behavior of Mojia village in the past six months was too weak, just like Xiaobai in the mall.


    "Go back and tell the villagers that I will comprehensively assess the industry of Mojia village at the end of the year. For any industry with serious losses, the person in charge will be removed. The capable will go up, the weak will go down, and the fittest will survive. So will the industry and people." Merton is sonorous and powerful.


    "Yes!" the people in Mojia village were shocked.


    "Young master, don''t worry, Mojia village will not let you down!" Li Yi clenched his teeth and promised.

 Chapter 617

    After the people in Mojia village left, Merton gently shook his head and sighed, "today''s Mojia village is too green to stand the wind and waves."


    Fuber sighed: "two years ago, we were just ordinary craftsmen. How could we expect to have today."


    Before that, most of the management of Mojia village were ordinary villagers. With the expansion of the industry of Mojia village, it is natural to be in a hurry to manage so many people.


    "I won''t go to school. Are the night schools I''ve painstakingly prepared all furnishings?" Merton snorted coldly.


    Fubo also shook his head for a while. He naturally understood the psychology of the children of Mojia village. Almost everyone had a mentality of not trying to make progress when he became rich suddenly.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "you can send someone to Chang''an city to inquire about it one by one, and hire several well-known shopkeepers in Chang''an city at a high price to teach business war lessons for the villagers! If someone doesn''t want to make progress and becomes an idle person in Mojia village, he won''t be hungry."


    Fubo nodded and said, "wait, I''ll do it. I hope they don''t live up to the young master''s efforts."


    Merton nodded. Today''s Mojia village is surrounded by wolves, and countless people care about Mojia''s Secret skills. If one day, the advantages of Mojia village''s ink skills disappear, how can we survive in this cruel competition.


    Therefore, Merton did not directly help Mojia village through the difficulties, but took this opportunity to cultivate a large number of excellent talents from Mojia village. This is the way for Mojia village to survive, otherwise it will only be a flash in the pan.


    Ziyi listened to me for a long time and said, "those who stole my Mohist secret skills are so hateful, and those ungrateful craftsmen. Mohist village treats them sincerely, offers them such a high salary, but is still treacherous. Can the young master ignore it?"


    Fuber also looked indignant when he heard the speech. Obviously, he was extremely dissatisfied with these craftsmen.


    Merton shook his head indifferently and said, "there is no airtight wall in the world. Similarly, the ink technology of Mohist village can''t be kept secret all the time. When I agreed to the recruitment of Mohist, I knew that Mohist ink technology would leak."


    Ziyi immediately opened her eyes, looked at Merton in surprise and said, "so, the young master knew that there would be this moment today. Why don''t you try to stop it."


    Merton asked, "why should I stop!"


    This time even fuber opened his eyes! He looked at Merton puzzled.


    Ziyidun was so angry that he said, "they are thieves who stole the secret skills of my Mohist school."


    Merton sighed, "if we are just an ordinary merchant, I will naturally defend my secret recipe to the death. However, we are Mohists."


    "What''s wrong with the Mohist school? Can we let them take our secret skills wantonly." Ziyi refused to accept.


    Upon hearing the words of Ziyi, Merton was silent for a long time and said with a gloomy face: "In the pre Qin period, among the hundreds of schools of thought, Confucianism, France, Taoism and Mohism were prominent. Now Confucianism is the only one, Taoism and Mohism have withered, and Mohism has fallen to the lowest point. I once wanted to disclose several secret skills! I hope people with lofty ideals all over the world can see the prospect of Mohism and revitalize Mohism, but almost everyone is enjoying the secret skills of Mohism, and no one has really devoted himself to studying Mohism, let alone joining Mohism."


    Fubo''s face darkened when he heard the speech. It has been two years since the birth of Mohist school. Many people are happy to accept the secret skills of Mohist school. However, only a handful of people come to invest in Mohist school. In the end, it is the children of Mohist village who support it independently. Everyone is staring at Mohist village and wants to use ink skills. They never thought of studying ink skills by themselves. Even Merton offered a reward, Nothing is better than nothing.


    "So the young master let them steal ink skills!" Ziyi frowned.


    "It''s not letting them steal, but controlling them a little bit, giving them clues, both correct and wrong, so that they can finally succeed in experiments again and again. Maybe they are complacent and don''t know that this is the reason of ink technology. When they crack ink technology with their own hands, they don''t know that they have embarked on the road of Mohism." Merton''s wisdom bead is holding the road.


    "No one will cherish what they give it. What they have gained through thousands of hardships is the most precious. Those people think they have found a way to crack ink technology, but they don''t know that this is the skill to create ink technology." Fubo suddenly realized.


    "This is to teach fish, I don''t know how to teach fish." Ziyi Qiao said in a voice. She didn''t expect that the young master would teach fish in this sneaky way.


    Merton solemnly said, "in this way, the silent development of Mohism will not attract the attention of Confucianism. Maybe those Confucian people are gloating at the leakage of Mohist secret skills, but they don''t know that it is precisely this that Mohism can blossom everywhere in the Tang Dynasty. These workshops are the foundation of Mohism in the future."


    Although Merton is so happy, it does not violate the real interests of Confucianism and will not threaten the status of Confucianism. Only one Mojia village is still within the tolerance of Confucianism. In addition, Mojia village is at the foot of the capital, and some dark means can not be used.


    If Mohism blossoms everywhere, I''m afraid it will certainly cause a fierce rebound from Confucianism, and the good situation of Mohism village will be destroyed once.


    "However, as a result, our Mojia village has suffered a lot, and our fists are difficult to defeat our four hands, not to mention so many opponents. I''m afraid the Mojia village will be attacked back and forth." Ziyi worried.


    "Even if the secret skills of Mohist school are cracked and leaked, other workshops are just in a fair position with Mohist village. If Mohist village fails, it can only be inferior to others. However, if Mohist village really can''t survive, young master, I won''t sit idly by and continue to upgrade the secret skills of Mohist village, but the time left for Mohist village will be shorter next time!" Merton''s voice.


    Fubo understands that once the secret skills of Mojia village are upgraded, those who covet the secret skills of Mojia will naturally follow up again. Soon, the current plight of Mojia village will repeat, so the only one who can save Mojia village is Mojia village itself.


    On the one hand, the benchmark of Mojia village can not fall down. On the other hand, we should make the cracked ink technology blossom everywhere in the Tang Dynasty, and invisibly continue to expand the foundation of ink technology. It is conceivable that it is difficult.


    "Today''s events are only known to us. We can''t spread them to other people''s ears, even the villagers of Mohism." Fu Bo turned to Ziyi and solemnly warned him.


    Ziyi nodded hurriedly, which was related to the future of Mohism. Naturally, she knew the importance.


    "However, according to my estimation, the leakage of Mohist secret skills can''t be so fast. It seems that there must be an expert in the dark, which makes me very interested." Merton said with great interest.


    "Don''t worry, young master. People leave their names and wild geese leave their voices. Although the Mohist school is weak, it''s not difficult to check a person." Fubo said proudly.

 Chapter 618

    In front of the west gate of Chang''an City, there was an endless stream of carriages loaded with goods, and the brick road that could run eight carriages side by side still seemed a little crowded.


    "I didn''t expect that the whole Chang''an City would be so prosperous after leaving Chang''an City for half a year. Such a wide lane is not enough so soon." Merton couldn''t help sighing at the busy scene on the brick road.


    Although the official road in the west of Chang''an city is the main official road connecting Chang''an City and Luoyang City, it has adopted high-standard eight lanes before construction, which was more than enough at the beginning of the year. Now it is really a little stretched.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "young master, I don''t know. Since the western expedition, the imperial court has issued huge orders. Almost all businessmen in Chang''an Luoyang are crazy. Only with the continuous expansion of various workshops can there be today''s scene."


    Merton nodded. War is indeed the most effective means to stimulate industry. The war of the western expedition consumed countless materials and almost hollowed out Datang. Naturally, it was cheaper for many workshops. Of course, Mojia village also benefited a lot.


    However, Xu Jie said with a bitter smile: "at the beginning, Mojia village can still win orders with ink technology, but since the young master left Chang''an City, it seems that the technology of many workshops has been improved almost at the same time overnight, and the advantages of Mojia village have been lost almost at the same time. I''m afraid the consequences would be unimaginable if there were not some public praise."


    These workshops in Merton in Chang''an city are not exposed. Once Merton leaves, he immediately and impolitely plagiarizes the secrets of the Mohist school, digs Mohist technicians at a high price, collects the business intelligence of the Mohist school, and tacitly excludes the Mohist village, causing the Mohist village to lose a large number of orders. During the six months since Merton left, Xu Jie can be said to have had a hard time.


    Merton nodded and pointed out: "it is in the interests of the Mohists to focus on the people! As for the orders of the imperial court, only the ones with the highest technical requirements. There is no need to involve too much with the imperial court. Don''t make quick money. Some orders will be lost if they are lost."


    For the imperial court, the relationship of Mohist village is weak and troublesome, and it is easy to be grasped. However, for the people, with the improvement of Mohist image, there is still a brand market, and the majority of the people are the real headquarters of Mohist.


    "Understand!" Xu Jie replied.


    "Young master! I''ve found it!"


    Fuber hurried to Merton and whispered.


    Merton''s eyes flashed, "where is it?"


    "Southeast Industrial Park!" fuber affirmed.


    The southeast Industrial Park, which was originally proposed by Merton to move out some polluting workshops in Chang''an City and build an industrial park built of brick roads, Xu Jie couldn''t help looking a little moved. At the beginning, the workshop in the southeast Industrial Park was the most powerful one, and most of the orders in Mojia village were robbed by these workshops.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "go and visit this expert!"


    They got on the carriage and drove along the straight brick road. Soon, they turned directly to the southeast. I have to say that Su County Magistrate did a good job in the industrial park. The brick road is also eight lanes with a large number of trucks, but the brick road is extremely flat and does not conform to the official road in the south of the city.


    Moreover, after the Mohist motorcade turned to the southeast official road, it was found that there was no reduction in trucks and carriages. A considerable part of the goods were pulled to the industrial park. At the same time, a batch of goods were pulled out to Chang''an City and Luoyang City.


    The industrial park is located ten miles southeast of Chang''an city. It is not far away. The carriage runs smoothly all the way. It has arrived in about a quarter of an hour.


    "The Mohist school is coming!"


    When Merton stepped into the first step of the industrial park, the news immediately spread to all workshop merchants.


    When Mojia Zi returned to Chang''an City, it was almost a sensation in the whole city. Naturally, it is well known. Mojia Zi''s return represents that the time when the Mojia village has no head is over. I''m afraid the days when they wantonly suppressed the Mojia village will never return. After all, Mojia Zi belongs to catfish, but it is well known in the whole city. Mojia Zi can not only toss, but also have sharp teeth, It hurts when you bite back.


    Of course, relying on the forces behind them, they are naturally not afraid to quarrel with Mojia village, but they did not expect that Mojia Zi should take the initiative to come to the industrial park, which is a panic for some people with ghosts. After all, many of their secret recipes are plagiarized from Mojia. In the past six months since Merton left, these workshops rely on low prices, Frantically seizing the market belonging to Mojia village.


    He stole other people''s things and robbed other people''s market. Now the owner''s family suddenly came to the door. It is inevitable to feel guilty.


    In particular, the craftsmen dug up from Mojia village felt guilty. At the beginning, they were just ordinary craftsmen with the lowest wages. Mojia village not only gave them high salaries, but also made their status rise sharply, and they were treacherous.


    "Pay close attention to every move of Mohist school!" almost all workshop owners issued the same order.


    After all, all the people in Chang''an City have seen the method of turning their hands into clouds and covering their hands into rain. Almost all the workshops are in full readiness to pay close attention to the movement of Mojia village.


    "This is the blast furnace to be supervised?" Merton asked, pointing to an unusually tall blast furnace on the right. Even if it is far away, the bursts of black smoke from the blast furnace can be clearly seen.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "yes, that''s the blast furnace to be supervised. According to the news, today''s blast furnace to be supervised has been cracked, and there are many masters to be supervised who are not inferior to Uncle Zhang. Although the refined steel is not as good as the production of Mojia Village, I''m afraid it will catch up with him soon.


    In addition, there are many four-wheel carriages on both sides of the park for people to buy. The price is as low as 30% of that of Mohist carriages. Naturally, Chang''an people come to buy.


    "So many low-cost carriages are listed, and now I have a great impact on the carriages in Mojia village." Xu Jie frowned.


    Merton said expressionless, "to ensure the quality, we can''t damage the brand of Mohist carriage. As long as the brand doesn''t fall down, Mohist village can be invincible."


    "Yes!" Xu Jie nodded, but he knew that this road would not be easy. At least in a short time, the situation of Mojia village would be very difficult.


    Along the way, Merton carefully inspected the industry in the industrial park and found that it was a replica of another Mojia village. Almost all the industries in Mojia village exist here, and there will even be several. Together with other workshops, its scale is no less than the industrial corridor from Mojia village to Chang''an city planned by Merton.


    "Ahead is the residence of this expert!"


    Under the leadership of fuber, Merton and his party came to a very messy small workshop, which was very inconspicuous among the small and medium-sized workshops.


    But who could have thought that this was the final place where the secret skills of Mojia village were leaked. Almost all the ink skills of Mojia village were cracked here and finally revealed.

 Chapter 619

    The door of the small workshop is closed.


    Merton came forward and said in a loud voice, "Merton of the Mohist school wants to see you. Please inform me!"


    However, strangely, Merton shouted three times, but no one answered, and the door was still closed.


    "No one?"


    Xu Jie frowned. Now all workshops are in full swing. The door is open and trucks are coming in an endless stream. But there is no movement in the workshop in front of him. It''s incredible.


    Fuber frowned and said, "it''s impossible. According to our news, it should be here."


    "Knock!" Merton waved.


    Tie an, who had been following the guard behind him, immediately came forward. When he came to the door, tie an didn''t exert any force. Just when he met the door, the closed door opened a small crack.


    With a strong wrist, tie an opened the two doors, but there was no one behind the door. It was very quiet.


    "Young master, beware of fraud!" iron Ann frowned and hurriedly blocked Merton''s guard


    Merton smiled and said, "the middle door is wide open. It''s obviously the host''s intention to invite us. If we don''t enter through the door, it''s impolite."


    Now that they have found the door, they will not shrink back easily. They can only explore the truth. Forbes made a wink and the iron case will immediately enter the workshop first to explore the danger in advance.


    However, Fubo was worried too much, but there was no threat in the workshop. The outside was as messy as an ordinary workshop, but the inside was very orderly and clean.


    "Look, young master." Xu Jie frowned and pointed to the sundries in the courtyard.


    Merton looked intently, but saw the seemingly abandoned sundries. In fact, the products of Mojia village were disassembled into parts. Many of them are the latest products of Mojia village, but it is no pity that they were disassembled into parts.


    The whole workshop not only frantically demolished Mohist products, but also restored ink technology, from live fish secret technology, Qu Yuan plow to four-wheel carriage, pulley, kilo boom, and even a small boiler. It''s like a small ink exhibition.


    The faces of the Mohists are gloomy. It seems that they have not found the wrong person. I''m afraid the source of the loss of Mohist secret skills is here.


    "It seems that this person is very interested in the secret skills of Mohist school!" Merton laughed and didn''t care. There are countless studies on dismembering Mohist products, especially the one in front of him.


    "But with so much waste, a small workshop can''t afford the loss. It seems that there are many people to help." Xu Jie said coldly. Ordinary workshops can only crack one product related to themselves, while the workshop in front of us is an all-round way to crack the secret skills of Mohism. The cost of this is not one or two points. You should know that although many Mohist products are very close to the people and are not expensive, there are also many products specially produced for industry, which are expensive, but they have been directly dismantled and studied here.


    "Young master, look here?" iron an suddenly exclaimed, attracting everyone''s attention.


    Tie''an saw an empty spectacle shelf in his left hand, and a green quartz rock on his right hand. At his feet, rocks of various colors were everywhere.


    "This man is so ambitious that he wants to crack the secret skills of Mohist glass. Do you really think my Mohist glasses are made of stone?" iron anling snorted.


    Merton was awe inspiring. Tie an didn''t know the process, but he didn''t know that the glasses glass was really made of stone, but it was not a single stone, and the other party could push back to the core material of the glass. This alone is extremely amazing.


    "Is it a public loser?" Xu Jie frowned.


    As far as he knows, only public losers can achieve such a process.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the public losers have settled in the south of Chang''an City, and if they want to go their own way, they may study the secret skills of Mohism, but they will never spread around."


    "Who is it? Maliciously spreading the secret skills of Mojia village and hiding so deeply." Xu Jie hated Sheng.


    Merton suddenly stared and said, "no, maybe the other party didn''t interrupt and hide at all?"


    "Young master, is it possible that we have a clue?" Fubo and other people hurriedly asked.


    Merton nodded, stared at a doorpost in front of him, walked forward quickly, wiped it a little, and there was a mysterious sign.


    "Is this?" Xu Jie frowned.


    Merton sighed, "the owner of this workshop is not others, but our Mohist people?"


    "People of Mohism?" Xu Jie exclaimed.


    "Young master, this is impossible? Mojia village will never betray the young master?" Fu Bo said urgently, and tie an nodded repeatedly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course not the children of Mohist village, but Mohist village is not the only one."


    "Is it Yang Siqi? It''s impossible? He has left Chang''an City and can''t come back." Fubo frowned, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, looked at Merton in disbelief and said in a trembling voice: "is it..."


    Merton took a deep breath, solemnly nodded and said, "yes, the last pulse of the three veins of Mohism, the husband''s pulse, finally appeared."


    "Xiangfu''s pulse!" they exclaimed one after another.


    Merton solemnly nodded. This sign is very profound in Merton''s memory. At the beginning, it was the sign that merlie taught him the three veins of Mohism again and again, so that he should not forget the glory of Mohism and have the opportunity to try to find the whereabouts of the other two veins of Mohism.


    Now Yang Siqi of the dengling family has appeared, and the Xiangfu family can no longer sit still and finally no longer retire.


    "Is it for the position of a giant again?" fuber said with an embarrassed face.


    These people hide in the dark and make Mohism decline day by day. Only they, Xiangli, have been running for the revival of Mohism, and even paid a huge price.


    But I didn''t expect that the Mohist school has just improved a little, and three veins of the Mohist school appear one after another. Xiangfu''s vein spreads the secret skills of the Mohist school without psychological burden. Maybe I think this ink skill is a thing of the Mohist school!


    "Those who can hurt themselves are not only the enemy, but also their own relatives!" Merton said with emotion. Since the decline of Mohism, the other two veins not only don''t think about how to revive Mohism, but have been entangled in the meaningless position of giants.


    "It is said that the Xiangfu family lived in seclusion in Qi, that is, the land of Shandong. Why did they suddenly appear in Chang''an city." Fubo frowned.


    "The land of Shandong is the base of Confucianism. Xiangfu''s pulse can hide from others. I''m afraid it can''t hide from Confucianism. I''m afraid it will also have the shadow of Confucianism." Merton frowned.


    "Could it be that Xiangfu betrayed Mohism?" Fubo said with an embarrassed face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "is it a betrayal of Mohism, but it must be a bad comer."


    Merton led the crowd out of the gate of the workshop. At the moment, many craftsmen who heard the news were surrounded at the door. Seeing the iconic short hair of mojiazi appeared at the door, he was surprised. Today''s Mojia village can be said to be the holy land of craftsmen, and mojiazi is the soul leader of Mojia village.


    Merton looked back at the workshop and suddenly said in a high voice, "your workmanship is good. Unfortunately, times have changed and it''s out of date."


    "Out of date!"


    Merton said that the craftsmen around him were at a loss. They didn''t understand that the Mexican family would come to an ordinary workshop in the industrial park to evaluate their skills.


    However, in the crowd, a thin old man suddenly changed his face, gloomy as water.

 Chapter 620

    Night falls!


    The bustling brick road was gradually deserted, and there was no car shadow for a long time. In a tavern on both sides of the brick road, Merton led the people of Mojia village to wait quietly.


    Since the brick road was built, such pubs can be found everywhere on both sides of the brick road. Now Merton spent money to pack the store. The whole pub is empty and only a group of Mohist children.


    "Young master, do you think Xiangfu''s pulse will come?" Fubo frowned.


    Merton chuckled and said, "as a craftsman, the most unbearable thing I''m proud of is looked down upon by others. Besides, its empty door is wide open and wantonly shows its broken ink skills. The meaning of provocation is obvious. How can I be willing to be so provoked."


    Since the other party can hide it silently for so long in Chang''an City, he naturally has his own vision. There will be no problem finding this place.


    Fu Bo smiled bitterly when he heard the speech, but after thinking about the other party''s wanton dissemination of ink skills, he had no sympathy with the other party.


    "Young master, don''t take it lightly. According to the records of Mohist classics, most of the Xiangfu family are stubborn people, and they are proficient in the art of ink debate. I''m afraid it''s difficult to deal with them," Fubo reminded.


    Merton nodded silently. However, since Xiangfu''s pulse had appeared, how could he be reconciled if he didn''t try to contact the following.


    "I''m sorry, this place has been booked by us. We won''t pick up guests for the time being! Please move to another place." tie an''s voice suddenly sounded outside.


    A voice sounded outside and said, "I didn''t expect that this is the way of hospitality of Tangtang Mozi."


    When Fu Bo heard the speech, he suddenly said, "Xiangfu''s pulse?"


    "Tiean, please come in!" Murton said in a deep voice.


    "He is worthy of being a famous Mohist in the Tang Dynasty and has an extraordinary bearing." with the sound, a hale and hearty old man with a dark face in coarse linen entered the tavern.


    "Mohist Xiangli has seen the elder!" Merton got up and saluted him respectfully.


    The old man in sackcloth saluted solemnly with the same face and said, "the Mohist Xiangfu''s pulse Tian Mou is polite!"


    "Tian Mou?" Merton''s heart moved. Mou, etc. PI, Mou, aid and push are the core logic of ink debate. The other party is obviously proficient in ink debate in the name of Mou.


    "When my father was alive, let me always remember the three veins of Mohism. Now the one vein of Deng Ling''s family and the one vein of Xiangfu''s family have come out one after another, and our Mohist way is endless." Merton lamented that when Merton decided to carry the banner of Mohism alone, he thought he was the last existence of Mohism, but he didn''t expect that the other three veins have inheritance.


    Tian Mou snorted coldly, stared at Merton and said, "it is not easy to inherit the Mohist school until now. Now, I Xiangfu''s family keeps in mind the Mohist School''s first training and wholeheartedly inherits the Mohist school. However, even if I am far away in the mountains and forests, I hear that in Chang''an City, some people use the name of the Mohist school to pursue their own interests and openly trample on the Mohist School''s first training. How can I Xiangfu sit back and be impolite."


    "In the name of the Mohist family, do the self-interest of the family? Don''t spit out blood." Merton''s face changed.


    Tian Mou looked at Merton coldly and said, "Zi Mozi said: if benevolent people do things, they will prosper the interests of the world and remove the harm of the world. Now your Mohist village relies on the secret skills of Mohist, but it is controlled by one family to make huge profits. You only enrich Mohist village. Such a selfish behavior, especially Mohist love the way of the world."


    "This is the reason why you wantonly spread the secret skills of Mohism." Merton said coldly.


    "Once these ink skills come into the world, they will certainly benefit the country and the people, and countless people will benefit from them. In this way, it is the way of Mohism and love." Tian Mou is worthy of color.


    In his philosophy, Mohism has always been selfless. He gave up his family for everyone. Merton''s behavior runs counter to Mohist philosophy.


    "Didn''t I disclose the secret skills of live fish, artificial incubation technology, the method of increasing grain production and the method of drought resistance? How many people in the world benefited from them? Do you know who benefited from these secret skills you disclosed? It''s the dignitaries behind the workshop owners!" Merton asked.


    Tian Mou was not moved at all and said, "these old men naturally know, and I can see clearly that in just half a year, the prices of various items have fallen sharply, which has benefited countless people. Maybe some people will make profits, which is also the huge profits of your Mohist village."


    With the spread of ink technology, major workshops have launched similar products. Under the fierce competition, it is almost the only way to fight a price war.


    Merton retorted: "you only see the huge profits of the Mohist village. How can you see the countless costs spent by the Mohist village in developing ink technology? Without the support of huge profits, how can the Mohist village continue to develop ink technology and lose the advantages of ink technology? Where is the future of my Mohist village?"


    Tian Mou stubbornly said, "without the idea of Mohism, it is useless to develop and grow. Moreover, my Mohism pursues the method of saving money. After I came to Chang''an City, I visited the whole Mohist village for the first time. The villagers live in tall and brand-new brick houses, wear silk and satin, and go in and out in carriages. What''s the method of Mohism?" Tian Mou patted his coarse linen clothes and said proudly.


    The Mohist School advocated frugality, and the Mohists wore coarse linen clothes day and night. They were extremely bitter and did not make superfluous enjoyment. In Tian Mou''s opinion, the Mohist village had become greedy for pleasure and lost the essence of Mohism, so they decided to destroy the Mohist village without hesitation.


    Merton said loudly, "is my Mohist School doomed to be poor and destitute and to make wedding clothes for others? The children of Mohist school can not enter the officialdom and enjoy prosperity and wealth like Confucianism and France; nor can they pursue the past life like Buddhism and Taoism. They can''t even make themselves better by relying on their own skills. Who still wants to join Mohist school? I''m afraid my Mohist school will only die at that time."


    Merton''s words can be said to speak the heart of many Mohist children. They have had enough of a poor life and finally made the Mohist village better. Who is willing to go back to the old days.


    "Yang Zhu, an ancient man, said: if you lose a penny, you won''t benefit the world. Now you open the secret skills. If the Mojia village loses only a penny, the world will benefit. If the Mojia village can''t even do this, what''s the way of Mojia." Tian Mou said firmly.


    Yang Zhu is a Taoist who promotes self-interest. Mencius said: the words of Yang Zhu and Mo Zhai enrich the world. If the words of the world do not belong to Yang, they belong to mo. The studies of Yang Zhu and Mohism are contradictory theories.


    "In that case, why don''t you make your ink skills public and benefit the world?" Merton sneered.


    Tian Mou was speechless.


    "Because Xiangfu''s pulse doesn''t benefit the world at all! That''s why you stand and talk without backache." Merton sneered.


    Tian Mou was furious and said, "boy, you are arrogant and dare to insult me."


    Merton shook his head and sneered: "now my Mohist school has reached the time of life and death. If it doesn''t change, it will die. Since you came out of the mountain with Xiangfu''s pulse, boy, I''d like to see your Xiangfu''s pulse carry forward the great moves of Mohist school."


    "Then we''ll wait and see." Tian Mou got up angrily, and the two sides parted unhappily.


    Looking at Tian Mou''s leaving figure, fulberton sighed with a sigh: "Xiangfu''s pulse is not easy to appear in the world. Young master, why deliberately excite him."


    In Fubo''s opinion, if Merton advised, maybe Tian Mou could not enter the Mojia village. The merger of the two veins is more powerful.


    Merton shook his head and said, "now that Mohism has suddenly risen, I''m afraid some people must not want to see a unified Mohism. A split Mohism will reassure everyone. Moreover, Xiangfu''s pulse is different from our ideas. If we forcibly merge, I''m afraid it will be troublesome."


    "How can Xiangfu know the young master''s painstaking efforts to damage the Mojia village and enrich the world? This is the young master''s plan long ago." Fubo sighed.


    Morton swept away his anger and said with a light smile, "there is a Xiangfu who spreads ink skills in a continuous way. The effect is better than our deliberate dissemination. It takes so much effort to invest all his wealth in a workshop. How can he easily let go and steal our ink skills? That is, he gets on our thief ship and can''t get down if he wants to."


    How can the ink technology they have worked hard to get not be regarded as a peerless treasure, and how can they give up easily after paying so much price, not to mention the motivation to make money. Subject to the restrictions of transportation, there is still a big gap in today''s Datang market. As long as these people don''t kill themselves, making money is certain. Once they taste the taste of profit, they won''t give up easily.


    Once the workshops using ink technology bloom everywhere in the Tang Dynasty, it is the moment of the rise of Mohism.

 Chapter 621

    After returning to Chang''an City, Merton just enjoyed a few days of leisure, when he received the notice of the Grand Court meeting.


    The western expedition has long been over. It is reasonable to say that the imperial court should reward for merit. However, due to the flood in Shandong, the imperial court''s finance is tight. Even if Merton gets a lot of wealth from Tuyuhun, it is enough. Now the autumn tax has been collected, and the financial resources of the imperial court are gradually abundant, so there is this reward for merit.


    Following the ministers to the Tai Chi hall again, Merton consciously came to the end of the military general team in the complex eyes of a group of Confucian scholars.


    "I won the great victory of the Tang Dynasty in this western expedition, and you Aiqing worked hard!" Li Shimin said in high spirits when he appeared on the Dragon chair and saw all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty.


    "Your Majesty is flattered. It is the responsibility of our generals to fight for the country." Li Jing took the lead and said solemnly.


    Changsun Wuji also smiled and said, "after defeating Tuyuhun, the Tang Dynasty has shocked the western regions. The silk road is unimpeded and smooth. Your majesty, the name of Tian Khan must be famous all over the world."


    "Congratulations, your majesty!" the ministers said in unison.


    After defeating Tuyuhun, Datang''s reputation is even better. This is the common glory of Datang, and all officials are naturally proud.


    Li Shimin nodded and suddenly said with a heavy face, "the first merit of this western expedition is that there are countless soldiers who died in battle. If these soldiers had not died for the country, why would our Tang Dynasty have won so much."


    All officials also nodded heavily. Although Datang won a complete victory, it also suffered heavy losses. Nearly 10000 soldiers died in the whole war, and this is still the result of doctors'' full treatment. Otherwise, I''m afraid this number will more than double. "


    "Dai Aiqing, have the pensions for the dead been paid?" Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Dai Zhou nodded and said, "back to your majesty, Wei Chen has already distributed it according to the highest standard as ordered by your majesty."


    Li Shimin nodded and said solemnly, "we should ensure that these pensions are sent to the homes of these sacrificial soldiers."


    "Yes!" Dai Zhou said positively.


    "I''ll sacrifice my soldiers for your Majesty''s kindness." Li Jing said solemnly.


    After all, these soldiers died on the battlefield after following him. Now they have been rewarded. After all, they have some compensation, which makes him feel a little better.


    When Merton heard the amount of pension, he sighed in his heart. These amounts seem to be a lot, but I''m afraid they can''t last long for a family. He moved in his heart and said, "tell your majesty, most of these sacrificial soldiers are the backbone of the family. Even a temporary pension may be difficult to last long. Over time, the family will be in great difficulties."


    Li Shimin also nodded solemnly. In this era, I''m afraid it will be very difficult to lose a man''s family and leave only orphans and widows.


    "From the perspective of micro ministers, if the imperial court will come forward to issue the title of martyr''s family members to these soldiers who died in the war, it will not only correct the name of these heroes and let them honor the village, but also let the counties and townships take more care of them. Under the same conditions, it will give priority to the military family members. In this way, it will not cost much, but also make the soldiers loyal to national security, and the martyr''s family members can be properly resettled."


    When Merton finished, Li Shimin immediately brightened his eyes and asked, "what do you think of Aiqing?"


    Li Jing nodded again and again and said, "it''s a good thing to offer wine to mo. once this plan is made, I, the officers and men of the Tang Dynasty, will certainly be loyal to your majesty."


    As the head of all officials, Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "after being loyal, his loyalty can be learned from the world. His majesty gives preferential treatment to the martyrs'' families. Eighteen years later, the martyrs will certainly be loyal to his majesty again."


    Li Shimin was delighted when he heard the speech. It didn''t cost much, but it was the best policy to let the soldiers return and cultivate a group of loyal people for the imperial court.


    Merton heard the speech and said, "I will set an example in Mojia village. In the future, I will recruit workers in Mojia village. The martyrs'' families will be given priority, and I will not let the martyrs'' families be wronged."


    Hearing this, Kong Yingda raised her eyebrows and said, "in the future, the official school enrollment of the imperial court will give priority to the families of martyrs under the same conditions."


    Hearing the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism, Li Shimin was not angry but happy this time. He smiled and said, "you Aiqing have a heart. If you Aiqing is dedicated to the country, why don''t we worry about the Tang Dynasty."


    With a grateful face, Li Jing arched his hands to the officials and said, "thank you, sir."


    Li Shimin was secretly proud. Now the dispute among hundreds of families finally benefits the Tang Dynasty, which is much better than the stagnant water in the Tang Dynasty. Watching Merton retreat to the corner of the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin suddenly opened his mind and deepened his understanding of the catfish effect.


    "I believe that in addition to the unity of the whole army, doctors also made great contributions in this war. On the occasion of the western expedition, tens of thousands of soldiers were cured by doctors. The doctor Mo Wu found the cause of night blindness, solved the problems of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years, and set an example to cut hair and eradicate head lice in the army. It is really a model of hanging pot to help the world." Li Shimin shouted.


    The ministers could not help nodding. This battle could be said to be a battle for the fame of doctors. In the fourth year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty attacked East Turks in the north. At that time, the cure rate of wounded soldiers was only 30%. However, in only four years, the cure rate of wounded soldiers was as high as 95%, and countless soldiers were spared.


    In contrast, the role of doctors was immediately promoted countless times by the imperial court, and the establishment of medical soldiers had already been raised to the agenda.


    "Mo Wu is specially granted as a baron, and the reward of other doctors is doubled." Li Shimin shouted.


    After Li Shimin granted the reward, everyone immediately looked at Merton in the last row. Now, in addition to Mo San''s invention of printing, Mo Wu has been granted the title again because of doctors. Now there are three titles in a Mohist village, which is very rare in the Tang Dynasty.


    However, Mo Wu''s title is well deserved, and everyone is convinced.


    "In addition, Zu Mingjun used his arithmetic knowledge to reform the stone throwing machine and write down a merit. Taoist priest Shenxiao advanced and presented the powder formula, which is indispensable. Therefore, he is granted the title of Shenxiao immortal!" Li Shimin successively awarded Zu Mingjun and Taoist priest Shenxiao, but Taoist priest Shenxiao has passed away, leaving only his name. I''m afraid the real credit still falls on the Taoist school.


    In the court hall, some Confucian officials were extremely embarrassed. Now the Mohist school has been fully revived, and the military recruit plan has been handed over to three provinces and six ministries for discussion. Because of the explosion of gunpowder, the Taoist school has found a way to cure night blindness, and the farmers have been assisted by new agricultural tools and foreign seeds. At the height of the sun, the Legalists are dormant in the Mohist village.


    Hundreds of schools have bravely advanced, but Confucianism has suffered heavy losses. Now Confucianism has lost the sense of heaven and man, leaving only the Earth Dragon to turn over. It is already difficult to support itself, but the other hundred schools have made continuous efforts to catch up. Their influence can not be underestimated, and even began to affect all aspects of Datang.


    Merton was filled with emotion. All schools of thought competed with each other. From the four powers of Confucianism, Mohism and Taoism in the pre-Qin period to the unipolar era of Confucianism in the Han Dynasty, he finally became a superpower in the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 622

    The Manchu courtiers knew that this battle could be won so easily, and the loss of the court was the smallest. It was the efforts of hundreds of cooperation,


    After the war, the role of the hundred schools was suddenly raised to a new height. Among the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, there was gradually the voice of other hundred schools. It was no longer the words of the Confucian family. This was what Li Shimin wanted to see. After all, checks and balances went deep into the bone marrow of each generation of emperors.


    Of course, Li Shimin did not want to shake Confucianism. After all, ruling the country still depends on Confucianism, but there was no voice of resistance to other theories.


    "Of course, Li Aiqing should be counted as the first person in this war. Li Aiqing, regardless of his age, can only win this war by coordinating the whole army." Li Shimin solemnly said to Li Jing.


    Li Jing hurriedly stepped out and said, "it''s my honor. Fortunately, I have lived up to your Majesty''s trust."


    "Li Aiqing worked hard and made great contributions to the country, worshipped the book and the right servant and shot, and became the Duke of the country," Li Shimin said solemnly.


    The courtiers couldn''t help looking at Li Jing with envy. Being a general is the highest honor of being a courtier. Now Li Jing is the first to do it, but Li Jing''s credit is indeed the first in the Tang Dynasty. It''s also worthy of such treatment. "


    Li Jing was immediately flattered and quickly bowed down and said, "thank you for your love. I''m old. I''ve already felt unable to support the western expedition. I''m really unable to deal with the government. The minister is really powerless."


    Unexpectedly, Li Jing turned down the position of Shangshu''s right servant. Even if Li Shimin repeatedly invited, Li Jing resolutely refused.


    Finally, Li Shimin said reluctantly, "in that case, Li Aiqing will take the post of national Duke first, take charge of the recruit plan and prepare for the Military Academy for the time being."


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Li Jing replied.


    This is probably the best result. In this way, Li Jing can be said to have separated from the barracks and no longer command the army. The rumor of natural rebellion has been broken. Li Jing has also got rid of the restriction of high position. Everyone knows that Li Jing will no longer lead the army and fight, but the title of Duke of Wei is enough to enjoy his old age.


    At the beginning, the important officials who followed Li Shimin to fight in the north and south, saw Li Jing retreat, and everyone''s heart seemed to fall heavily on the ground,


    The cunning rabbit dies and the running dog cooks! This is not a joke, but a bloody tragedy!


    Few of the founding heroes of the past dynasties can get a good end, and Li Jing retreated, creating a good end for the founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty, which gave other important officials a long sigh of relief. Of course, there is Li Jing''s knowledge and, of course, it has a great relationship with Li Shimin''s mind.


    Even Merton couldn''t help sighing that this is the best era, whether for others or Mohists.


    The atmosphere of the whole court was suddenly light. Both the rewarded generals and the envious Wen ministers couldn''t help but show a relaxed smile.


    "Hou Junji! Seal the governor of Chenzhou and the Duke of Chen." Li Shimin continued to seal the reward.


    During the western expedition to Tuyuhun, Hou Junji took the most difficult South Road, and finally won a complete victory. He deserved the second credit.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Hou Junji said with a rare smile.


    "Cheng Zhijie......" Li Shimin said again.


    Cheng Yaojin went on an expedition of 800 miles into the vast sea, and his head returned from ambush. His credit ranked third. If he had not been ambushed and lost soldiers, his credit would have gone further.


    However, Cheng Yaojin was particularly satisfied. He bowed with a happy face and said, "thank you, your majesty."


    Next, Li daozong, Li Daliang, and so on, won many awards one by one, of which Su dingfang was the most prominent.


    Originally, Su dingfang was just a logistics officer. At Merton''s suggestion, he formed an efficient transportation team, commanded 8000 wounded soldiers and rescued 30000 troops of Li daoyan. It can be said that this war was brilliant, and he was directly promoted to three levels, ranking as the general of the 16th guard.


    "Firearm supervisor Merton!" after Li Shimin rewarded all the generals, it was his turn to wait for Merton.


    "Merton led the firearm supervisor Lianke Tuyuhun three fort, accurately predicted the food day of Tiangou, helped the army win with gunpowder, used mathematics to find the enemy''s trace, made repeated contributions, rode 30 horses to attack the enemy and rescue the left leader guard..."


    Li Shimin read Merton''s merits one by one, and all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help taking a breath. The merits of others were one or two, and Merton was one by one. Moreover, if each one was put on an ordinary general, it would have been a great achievement, and Merton was completed by one, and it''s not over yet.


    Li Shimin took a deep look at Merton and continued: "offer a compass to help Cheng Aiqing chase down Fu Yun and return with great victory. After the flood in Shandong, Mo Aiqing stayed in Tuyuhun to raise enough food and salaries for the imperial court."


    After reading Merton''s credit, Li Shimin was silent. Even a group of civil servants who hated the Mohist school had to admit that Merton played an irreplaceable role in this war, because Merton''s existence, wherever Merton participated, made dazzling achievements.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Many dignitaries could not help but re-examine Merton in their hearts. All the time, people thought that they looked up to Merton, but found that they still made the mistake of contempt. As long as they gave enough platform to the Mohists, they were not surprised at how much the boy did.


    Merton immediately showed a simple and honest smile and said shyly, "Wei Chen just made a little effort and relied on the trust of other generals to get a little credit from the boy."


    When Li Shimin saw Merton''s smile, he couldn''t help humming, and the boy''s tail began to tilt up again.


    "If you attack, you will be rewarded. I don''t care about merits and demerits. I specially ordered Mo Aiqing to be promoted to the sixth grade and continue to command the firearms prison." Li Shimin said angrily.


    "From the six grades." Merton couldn''t help but curl his lips and despise Li Shimin''s stinginess. His seven grade sacrifice is already a wonderful work. It''s also not qualified to sacrifice from the six grades. Didn''t you see that Kong Yingda''s Imperial College sacrifice is the official position of the five grades.


    Gao Shilian felt puzzled and looked at Li Shimin. He went directly to Lanzhou to stabilize the overall situation of the northwest on the one hand, and the Minister of officials on the other hand. He verified the credit of officers and men at all levels in the army nearby. According to the credit Book drawn up by him, Merton should be promoted two levels in a row, which is the sixth grade. Rao is so, which is the result of suppressing Merton.


    The officials of the Manchu Dynasty moved in their hearts. According to Merton''s credit, even upgrading one level is not enough to reward Merton''s credit. There must be more.


    "Marry Princess Changle!" Li Shimin said word by word, biting his teeth.


    The ministers suddenly realized that it was a great honor to marry Princess Changle, which means that Li Shimin publicly admitted the marriage in the court hall. In this way, Merton''s official position of only one level was reasonably explained.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Merton didn''t expect that Li Shimin should be so dishonest and give a reward for the good things he promised before, but he had to take it. After all, for him, no amount of reward is as important as admitting his marriage with Changle.


    "Congratulations on your choosing another good son-in-law."


    "Congratulations, Mo sacrifice."


    "Mo sacrificial wine and Princess Changle are really men''s talents and women''s looks. They are a match made in heaven."


    For a moment, the whole Tai Chi hall was filled with congratulations.


    Only two parties were dissatisfied. Merton despised Li Shimin''s stinginess. Li Shimin didn''t like Merton. As soon as the boy entered the Changle palace, he had a secret meeting with Changle for half an hour. If he didn''t get married again, I''m afraid his daughter''s reputation would be lost.


    "The merit of other officers and men will be distributed as usual, and those who make meritorious service will be selected first after the preparation of the military academy!" Li Shimin waved a big hand


    At this point, the reward for merit officially ended.

 Chapter 623

    After the reward for meritorious service, Linghu de min, the Minister of rites, came out and said, "after Fu Yun and Fu Zhu, your Majesty''s reputation of Tian Khan has spread far in the western regions. All countries in the western regions have asked your majesty for the name of benevolence and righteousness and have come to vote. This is a memorial to the eternal friendship between Khotan and the Tang Dynasty. Please read it personally!"


    "Khotan!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed. At the beginning, Khotan was the iron pole of Tuyuhun. Now it is the same at the feet of the Tang Dynasty. How can Li Shimin not be satisfied, let alone other western countries.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. Khotan and other countries have come to invest, and the silk road will be unimpeded." Fang Xuanling said happily. After the war, the influence of the Tang Dynasty has extended to the western regions.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling. Tuyuhun not only kept invading the border, but also threatened the silk road. Now Datang cotton is about to be popularized, Datang silk will surely pile up like a mountain, and the price will fall sharply. If one is not handled well, it may cause a great disaster. Opening up the silk road is only the first step to solve the problem of Datang silk, More importantly, Datang should firmly control this silk road in its own hands.


    "Tell the envoys of Khotan and other countries that Datang is a state of etiquette. If you make friends with Datang, we Datang will naturally repay you for your kindness and make friends with you." Li Shimin said Longyan Dayue.


    Linghu de nodded and said, "the countries in the western regions will thank your majesty Tian Khan for his kindness."


    Merton could not help feeling that when Tuyuhun was strong, these small countries in the western regions were not as enthusiastic as they are today. Sure enough, war was the most direct means to show national strength. If there was no Tuyuhun war, don''t mention the layout of the western regions, I''m afraid the Silk Road would not be able to get through.


    "Tell your majesty, in addition to Khotan and other countries, Tubo also sent envoys to Chang''an city to ask your majesty to give him horseshoe, well drilling, silage and other ink skills." Linghu De''s face was strange.


    "Ink skill?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but look at the last row suspiciously, and Murton, who was still indignant on his face, said, "why don''t you find the Mohist School and come to me if you want to use ink skill."


    Gao Shilian hurriedly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. On the day when Murong Shun Khan ascended the throne, Wei minister once saw Tubo special envoy Lu Dongzan. This person personally offered a thousand good horses and ten thousand liang of gold to ink sacrifice wine in order to use this ink technique, but he was rejected by the ink marquis in public, saying that it was up to his majesty."


    "Thousands of good horses and thousands of gold!"


    The officials could not help but smack their tongue. Even if they had such huge wealth, they could not help but feel excited, but the Mohist son refused without hesitation. This alone was enough to impress everyone.


    Even Li Shimin''s face softened when he looked at Merton. As long as Merton nodded, the money for the bride price was naturally readily available. However, he resolutely gave up and let Datang take the initiative in diplomacy.


    "Your Majesty, this is a great kindness. It takes only a few public ink skills to make friends with Tubo without a penny!" Quan Wanji immediately agreed.


    Other civil servants can''t help but agree. Tubo is also a large country in Southwest China, and its strength is not weak. If you can win over Tubo, the benefits to Datang are obvious.


    When Merton heard the speech, his face was unprepared. He couldn''t help but list out and said, "what kind of ink technology is the policy of strengthening the country. Tubo is located on the plateau. It''s easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you get these ink skills, you''ll be strong and powerful."


    Quan Wanji sneered: "such a powerful strategy is not spread by your ink sacrifice. In this way, you are not suspected of being an enemy."


    Morton''s face turned green when he heard the speech, and said proudly, "Lord Quan, don''t talk about it. The boy once said that the Mohist school is the Mohist School of the Tang Dynasty. If it weren''t for my Tang Dynasty Lianke Turks Tuyuhun, he would have been invincible on the grassland. The green reserve feed secret skill boy would not be publicized even if he was rotten in his stomach."


    With Merton''s great gift of refusing ludongzan first, Merton''s words convinced all the ministers. Moreover, Datang really benefited the most from the secret skill of QingChu feed.


    When Quan Wanji saw many ministers standing on Merton''s side, he couldn''t help but despise him and said, "this secret recipe, ink sacrifice, has been announced to the world. I''m afraid it''s not allowed by your majesty, and Tubo can also be used correctly. In that case, it''s better to be a man of mercy."


    Merton sneered: "At the beginning, the boy once set rules in Tuyuhun. I Han people use this secret skill for free, but Tuyuhun wants to use it. A tribe has ten horses, ten cattle and one hundred sheep. Tuyuhun was just replaced by Chaka Salt Lake under his Majesty''s permission. Under the authority of the Tang Dynasty, if Tubo dares to use it without authorization, he will not send thousands of good horses and ten thousand liang of gold, and will not take the initiative to Chang''an The city asked his Majesty''s permission. "


    The officials nodded. The reason why Tubo took the initiative to come to Chang''an city was due to the power of the Tang Dynasty to win over Tuyuhun. If Tubo used these ink skills without authorization, I''m afraid it would be seized by the Tang Dynasty.


    Before that, Tubo naturally didn''t care about the attitude of Datang, but now Datang destroys the rotten and withers the rotten, generally destroys Tuyuhun, and borders on Tubo, which has to frighten Tubo. He doesn''t want to give Datang any excuse and handle. This can''t be solved with money, so he obediently came to Chang''an City and asked Li Shimin for a reward.


    Quan Wanji retorted, "I''m afraid the Tang Dynasty is asking for more benefits. I''m afraid it''s not as important as silage to Tubo."


    Even Li Shimin refuted this point, and his face was heavy.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course, these secret skills can enhance the strength of Tubo, but they can also benefit Qinghai grassland and northern grassland more. In contrast, Datang benefits more. Of course, Tubo can not be wantonly powerful. Tubo must be restricted."


    Quan Wanji sneered: "there is a clever plan to limit Tubo. We are all ears."


    Other ministers couldn''t help shaking their heads and chuckling. In their view, Merton, even though he had some tricks, still depended on their old ministers in the game between countries.


    Merton said proudly, "I can''t help such a big Tubo alone. However, when I went on an expedition to Tuyuhun, I found that if a country wants to be strong, food is the top priority, and it is even more precious to all parts of the grassland."


    Many officials nodded one after another. Food is the foundation of the country, which is the iron law of all dynasties.


    "Although Tubo is mainly engaged in animal husbandry, it can produce a lot of sorghum every year, which is the strong foundation of Tubo. If the Tang Dynasty consumes most of the sorghum produced by Tubo, how can a grassland tribe be the opponent of the Tang Dynasty?" Merton continued.


    "Consume the sorghum of Tubo!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but feel excited. If so, Tubo would not be worried.


    "The plan comes out from an?" Linghu de Yu hurriedly asked.


    "Wine!" Merton said solemnly.


    "Making wine?" all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not help looking at Merton in amazement. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help being disappointed. He thought Merton had any clever plan?


    Quan Wanji and other officials couldn''t help looking at Merton sarcastically, as if they were looking at a clown.


    Merton didn''t seem to see the mocking eyes of the ministers, and said angrily: "as soon as the boy returned from Tuyuhun, he heard the Mojia village complain to the boy. Now, the Mojia village not only leaked its secret brewing skills, but also was falsely accused of using poisonous grain to make wine to solve thousands of worries. The sales volume fell sharply and continued to lose money."


    After Merton finished, many ministers felt guilty. They could not escape the leakage of brewing secret skills. Their winery made a lot of money by taking advantage of this opportunity.


    "At this point, I''m ready to find the best brewing raw material for solving Qianchou - Tubo sorghum. Sorghum is the best raw material for brewing, and Tubo sorghum is located on the plateau with sufficient sunshine. It is the best of the best. It is the best raw material for brewing Qianchou. In this way, it can not only consume Tubo''s food greatly, but also break the people''s misunderstanding of solving Qianchou, and it won''t be harmful Consuming more food of the Tang Dynasty and killing three birds with one stone will unconsciously weaken the strength of Tubo and will not arouse Tubo''s vigilance, "Merton explained.


    Although transporting sorghum from Tubo costs a lot and increases the cost several times, compared with the profits of relieving Qianchou''s terror, these losses are almost negligible.


    The ministers who owned the winery were depressed. They thought Xie Qianchou had no chance to turn over, but they didn''t think that the sorghum of Tubo would bring Xie Qianchou back to life.


    "How much sorghum can you consume with your output to solve thousands of worries?" Quan Wanji said.


    Merton immediately looked at Quan Wanji like a fool and said: "Lord Quan knows that the secret brewing skills have been leaked. I don''t know how many restaurants in the whole Tang Dynasty know the secret brewing skills. There are many Mojia village taking the lead in using Tubo sorghum. I''m afraid there are many imitators. Besides, we won''t secretly spread the secret brewing skills to Tubo. I believe that the new formula can solve thousands of worries, and the good wine brewed by Tubo sorghum will be very popular?"


    Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly brightened. In this way, this plan has great potential. Once Tubo consumes a lot of sorghum, even if it gets the method of silage, the national strength will not rise but fall.


    Dai Zhou frowned and said, "in this way, wouldn''t a lot of money be earned by Tubo!"


    Merton said indifferently, "when I buy Tibetan sorghum, I can take advantage of the situation to sell my luxury accessories of the Tang Dynasty to Tibet, exquisite porcelain, smooth silk,... I''m afraid the money will come back soon."


    "Mojia Zi, it''s still that Mojia Zi!" all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty immediately stared at Merton in amazement. They didn''t expect that a huge Tubo would be weakened by Merton so quietly.


    Li Shimin immediately said without hesitation: "Linghu Shangshu, you tell the Tubo emissary that I pity the Tubo people how difficult their livelihood is, and allow them to use the secret skills. The only condition is that the ink sacrifice wine requires Tubo to supply a large amount of Sorghum in order to make wine, so as to solve the problem of thousands of worries."


    In this way, the excuse for Datang''s demand for Tibetan sorghum is perfect.


    "Yes!" Linghu said solemnly.


    Merton hurriedly said, "it would be better if he could supply sorghum for free, and the boy could make up for some losses."


    At this moment, Merton thought of the heartache of thousands of good horses and thousands of gold. How can he not take the opportunity to beg for benefits.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Merton with a headache. The boy turned his eyes.


    "Exchange sorghum for ink, so that Tubo won''t be suspicious." Merton muttered.


    Li Shimin said angrily, "let''s fix ten thousand loads of sorghum."


    Ten thousand loads of sorghum is naturally not as valuable as the great gifts provided by Tubo before, but no matter how much, it can not show the demeanor of the etiquette state of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Merton suddenly looked like a successful villain, changing his previous decadence.


    The ministers could not help staring at this pair of Weng''s son-in-law and joining hands to pit Tubo. It was not soft at all.


    "No one can reveal what happened today, or we will be severely punished." Li Shimin suddenly shouted.


    "I understand!" all the ministers shouted in unison.

 Chapter 624

    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "now Tuyuhun has been settled, the flood in Shandong has passed safely, and the situation in the Tang Dynasty is very good. The next focus of chaotang is to continue to broaden the Silk Road and ensure the smoothness and safety of the silk road."


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    The ministers nodded one after another. The benefits brought by the Silk Road to the Tang Dynasty were amazing. It should be said that in the past, these Hu merchants only brought wealth. Since Merton presided over the western region conference, a steady stream of seeds and foreign knowledge from various countries in the western region have greatly helped the Tang Dynasty, which makes the ministers pay more attention to the silk road.


    Especially this year''s western regions conference, although Merton missed it in Lanzhou, he heard that its scale was better than last year, and Datang made a lot of profits.


    "In this year''s corvee service, the focus of Guanlong land is the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumenguan, which is led by the Ministry of work and responsible for Guanlong counties." Li Shimin looked at the Ministry of work.


    "Yes!"


    When a waiter of the Ministry of work heard the speech, his face changed and gritted his teeth in response. He said that the road from Lanzhou to Yumen could not be closed for two thousand miles. This road is not easy to repair! The road from Lanzhou to Yumenguan is deserted, and it is almost impossible to gain much. Li Shimin''s purpose is to control the northwest on the one hand for the sake of the Silk Road and on the other hand. Once this brick road is built, it will be greatly convenient for the Tang Dynasty to transport troops and adjust grain. The control of the Northwest can be said to be like an arm and finger, which is of great strategic significance.


    The waiter of the Ministry of work said, "building brick roads is the first of the ink sacrificial wine. He also offered three horizontal and five vertical maps for the imperial court and mastered countless Mohist secrets. If the ink sacrificial wine can work in the Ministry of work and be responsible for building roads for the Tang Dynasty, it will make the brick roads of the Tang Dynasty crisscross in a short time."


    Now the Ministry of works has not decided yet, and the Ministry of works has no leader. The Minister of the Ministry of works not only means to throw away the pot, but also wants to put Merton in the bag. Since Merton''s ink skills fail, he will come to the Ministry of works. The Ministry of works can benefit a lot from Merton''s Secret skills. In his opinion, Duan Lun, the Minister of works who was originally hostile to Merton, has lost power, Merton would never object.


    The Chamberlain of the Ministry of industry didn''t expect that Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, was the first to oppose it. Dai Zhou came out and said, "tell your majesty, it''s nearly 2000 miles from Lanzhou to Yumenguan. It''s a long way. The Ministry of civil affairs can''t afford so much money! The old minister doesn''t have the means to turn ink sacrifice wine into gold. If your majesty transfers ink sacrifice wine to the Ministry of civil affairs to be responsible for this matter, it must be solved easily."


    In an instant, many ministers focused on Merton. They didn''t expect that the Ministry of work and the Ministry of the people would dig people at the same time. The Ministry of work took a fancy to Merton''s ink skills. Since the Ministry of the people took a fancy to Merton''s ability to collect money, they all wanted to dig people.


    Merton quickly stepped out and waved his hand: "It''s hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. How can a boy change money out of thin air? The Ministry of the people has less money. It can be built in sections. It''s not in a hurry. Moreover, there are few people along the way from Lanzhou to Yumenguan. There must be few traffic. You only need to build two lanes, but you should reserve space for future expansion. In this way, you can certainly save a lot of money."


    "Your Majesty, after the battle of Tuyuhun, there will be no worries in the northwest in a short time. Building brick roads will not happen overnight!" Fang Xuanling also advised.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he also knew that he was a little anxious. He nodded and said, "what Fang Aiqing said is very true. Build 500 Li first, and repair it according to the two lane brick road."


    The Ministry of work and the Ministry of civil affairs were relieved that the task of five hundred mile brick road could be completed. Only then did they take the order to step down. Merton was also relieved. He didn''t want to become a tool for the imperial court to make money.


    Li Shimin''s road construction plan was blocked. At present, he was unwilling to say to the Ministry of Rites: "Linghu Aiqing, the situation in the western regions is very good now. Take this opportunity to send envoys to countries in the western regions to exchange friendship with other countries and ensure the smooth flow of the silk road."


    Linghu de nodded and said, "tell your majesty, now the Ministry of Rites has trained a new group of people who are loyal to the country. They will certainly live up to your Majesty''s expectations, but..."


    "Hmm?" Li Shimin frowned and looked at Linghu Deyu.


    "However, it is the proposal of Mo sacrificial wine to cultivate people who are loyal to the king and serve the country for the country. Moreover, Mo sacrificial wine is proficient in the unique skills of the western regions and makes friends with Hu merchants. If your majesty can transfer Mo sacrificial wine to the ritual department, you will be able to successfully complete your Majesty''s task and ensure that the silk road is carefree." As soon as Linghu''s voice fell, all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty immediately burst into an uproar. Unexpectedly, the ritual department also wanted to rob Merton.


    "Linghu, you''re not kind. Mo sacrificing wine is the important post of firearms supervisor, and it''s the initiator of the recruit plan of our military department. It''s a little unkind for you to dig people one after another!" Li Jing relaxed and joked.


    "Your Majesty, the old minister is going to take the firearm supervisor as the model of the recruits'' plan. He needs the cooperation of ink sacrifice and wine. Please help him." Li Jing bowed.


    Linghu Deyu was unwilling to show weakness and said, "General Li, the ink offering wine has given you a good plan. You just need to find a way according to the diagram. Opening up the silk road is the Centennial plan of our Tang Dynasty. Now we can''t miss the opportunity. How can we miss the good opportunity?"


    "The recruit plan is also related to the Centennial plan of the Tang Dynasty." Li Jing retorted without letting anyone go.


    Li Shimin also had a headache. Usually, in his opinion, the nose is not the nose and the eyes are not the eyes of Merton. Unexpectedly, the Ministry of work, the Ministry of people, the Ministry of etiquette and the Ministry of war all came to compete.


    "Where do you Aiqing think Merton should go?" Li Shimin asked. According to their meaning, it is urgent for Merton to go.


    Seeing the quarrelsome Li Jing and Linghu dehu, the people wisely closed their mouths. Gao Shilian said helplessly, "it''s just to listen to the opinions of Mo sacrificing wine!"


    "Merton, you heard what you said just now. Which one do you want to go?"


    Merton''s eyes flashed. If possible, he naturally wanted to go to the Ministry of works, which is the real stage of Mohism. However, at the moment, he has changed from six qualities to light talk. When he arrived at the Ministry of works, he just became a tool for seeking ink technology. Only the Ministry of war is the most suitable for him to gain more voice in the future. However, he knows that there are still many wars to be carried out in Datang in the future, There will be more opportunities for meritorious service. Moreover, he is in charge of the firearms prison alone and is directly under the jurisdiction of Li Shimin, which is the most suitable stage for him to play.


    "Boy, thank you for your kindness. Now the firearms prison has just been established, and there are still many things to be improved. I really can''t take it away. But if you adults need a boy, you must go through fire and water." Merton looked puzzled. Of course, he can''t say he wants to stay in the military department. I''m afraid he offended other departments.

 Chapter 625

    "Who wants you to go through fire and water? After helping me consolidate the Silk Road first, I will never break my promise. I will certainly let you go to the military headquarters." Linghu de did not give up.


    Merton laughed and said, "Lord Linghu is very kind. Even in the army, the boy can help Lord Linghu."


    "Oh!" hearing the speech, Linghu could not help but move in his heart.


    "Boy, looking at the history books and the records of the contacts between envoys of various dynasties and foreign countries, I found a creepy law." Merton solemnly said.


    Linghu Deyu said solemnly, "I''d like to hear it in detail."


    At the moment, even Li Shimin couldn''t help listening.


    "Weak countries have no diplomacy!" Merton said word by word.


    "At the beginning, the reason why Su Qin and Zhang Yi were so powerful was that they relied on strong and powerful national power. The national strength in the early Western Han Dynasty was weak. At that time, the diplomacy of the Western Han Dynasty was extremely humiliating, risking to humiliate empress Lu and marrying the princess.


    Then, after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty became strong and prosperous. Zhang Jian emptied the western regions, and ban Chao rode in an array to kill the Xiongnu and stabilize the countries in the western regions. Is it only these thirty-six people, but the powerful Han Dynasty behind ban Chao? "Merton said excitedly.


    Many dignitaries also nodded one after another.


    "The boy thinks that wars in troubled times and flourishing diplomacy are as powerful as those in the Han Wu period. Blindly waging war will only lead to the sharp decline of the Tang Dynasty as in the Han Wu period. At this moment, the diplomatic importance of the Ministry of rites will be far more important than that of the Ministry of war." Merton solemnly said.


    Even Ling Hu de Chen couldn''t help but feel excited. The old fox, who was already in a high position, was said to be excited by the hairy boy of Merton. If the ritual department could make great contributions to calming the neutrality of the western regions like ban Chao, his power would certainly be doubled.


    "War in troubled times, diplomacy in prosperous times!"


    "One man is worth ten thousand troops!"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved. If he could dispatch an envoy, he could achieve the effect of dispatching a large army. How could he not be moved? After all, Tuyuhun''s war has almost exhausted Datang''s national strength.


    "Even if the Tang Dynasty sends a small official, it represents the whole Tang Dynasty. If the Tang Dynasty is strong, the envoys are strong. In order to stabilize the Silk Road, the top priority of the Tang Dynasty is not to send envoys to the western countries, but to show the powerful force of the Tang Dynasty to the western countries." Merton said excitedly.


    "No, we have just had a big war in the Tang Dynasty. The Treasury is empty. How can we support another war?" Dai Zhou retorted quickly.


    He was afraid that Li Shimin would be encouraged by Merton to conquer the western regions again. Other officials were not good at watching Merton. After the western expedition, the boy became unusually aggressive.


    Merton waved his hand again and again and said, "the display of force is not only war, such as the great reading army!"


    "The parade?"


    All the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Merton puzzled. Even Li Shimin was confused.


    Merton sighed with emotion on his face, as if he were trapped in a memory: "the inspiration of the grand parade is that the boy was inspired by the scene of his majesty reviewing the three armed forces before the expedition. His Majesty''s heroic posture of reviewing the three armed forces has shocked the boy so far. If his majesty didn''t need to sit in Chang''an City and drive out to Tuguhun, Fuyun would surely fall without war."


    The ministers stared at Merton, who was flattered on his face, and couldn''t help showing contempt. Even many civil servants scolded secretly at the bottom of their hearts: "flatterer."


    Even Li Shimin blushed, but his heart was very useful. He fought in the north and south, calmed the world, and his military talent is naturally recognized by the world. Even during the western expedition, even he is constantly rehearsing how he would arrange troops and array if he went on the expedition. Unfortunately, since he ascended the throne, I''m afraid there are few opportunities to lead the troops in person.


    "At that time, the boy thought that if the world saw your Majesty''s wisdom and martial arts, they would surely worship at your Majesty''s feet and return to the world, so the boy had an idea. If your majesty held a huge military parade in Chang''an City, your majesty stood under the rosefinch gate to review the three armies, and the officers and men of the three armies swore to your majesty that tens of thousands of troops would cross Chang''an City and return to camp, he would invite people all over the world and foreign countries The envoys saw that the people must be proud when they saw the majesty of our army, and their hearts were filled with the desire to serve the country. When the envoys of other countries saw the great force of our Tang Dynasty, they were filled with fear and no longer rebellious. "Merton said excitedly.


    "Review the three armies under the rosefinch gate!" Li Shimin''s eyes lit up immediately. He couldn''t help but be moved after he hadn''t fought for a long time.


    "In this way, the people all over the world will return to their hearts and fear in foreign countries, and cooperate with the loyal and patriotic people trained by the ritual department to circulate among the countries. Our Tang Dynasty will be able to calm the world without a single soldier." Merton''s explanation made the courtiers understand the potential benefits of the military parade at that time.


    "Show off your force!"


    The ministers understood Merton''s meaning, especially Linghu Deyu''s eyes. Foreign envoys saw the force of Datang with their own eyes. After returning home, they orally said that Datang''s strength was more reliable than hearsay. Coupled with the means of Datang envoys, they would certainly be able to get the most.


    With a flash in his eyes, Li Shimin couldn''t help but say: "Dear Aiqing, do you think this big parade is feasible?"


    Hou Junji immediately lined up and agreed: "I''m seconded. In this way, our Tang Dynasty can not damage a soldier and a soldier, but also deter other countries. It''s a good policy."


    The military parade is to show off the military''s force, which is most beneficial to the military. As the Minister of the Ministry of military, he naturally strongly supports it.


    "Marquis Mo really has a heart of benevolence. In this way, one envoy can complete what could have been solved by war. It is indeed a blessing for people all over the world." Wei Zheng agreed.


    "Foreign nations are not afraid of power and virtue. If I can see the great power of the Tang Dynasty, I will certainly be able to make a call in the northwest."


    Linghu dehu, the minister in charge of the Ministry of rites, was even more excited. With the support of the Imperial Army, the envoys of the Ministry of rites must be unfavourable. This is the greatest opportunity for the rise of the Ministry of rites. At present, he spared no effort to support it.


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, nodded repeatedly. Compared with a war, the money required for a military parade is only a drop in the bucket. Moreover, if this move can control the Silk Road in one fell swoop, the Ministry of civil affairs will certainly get greater benefits. In this way, the money consumed by the military parade is not worth mentioning.


    Merton''s proposal for the military parade soon won the support of all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Even Quan Wanji had to admit with his nose that the military parade could make the Tang Dynasty subdue people without war, which was very in line with the benevolence of Confucianism. He always hated Merton, but had to admit that Merton was really capable.


    "There is no such thing as a big military parade in all dynasties. This is the first one in the Tang Dynasty. It can certainly be recorded in history," Yan shigu said with emotion.


    "The first of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Shimin''s heart pounded. Isn''t it that he wants to set an unprecedented precedent. This is an irresistible temptation for Li Shimin.


    "Well, I''ll take the responsibility of the Tang Dynasty. How long will it take for the military department to prepare for the grand parade?" Li Shimin also said with pride.


    Hou Junji suddenly turned his face and said, "the 16th guard army is on standby."


    "Where''s the etiquette department?" Li Shimin turned and looked at Linghu Dehui.


    Linghu de thought a little: "Your Majesty, many western countries are already in the Tang Dynasty, but there are still many envoys from western countries who have not arrived. If you want to inform me, I''m afraid it will take at least a month."


    "It''s only one month. On the first day of October, under the Zhuque sect of the Tang Dynasty, I want to review the three armies publicly!" Li Shimin nodded.


    "Yes!" Linghu Deyu and Hou Junji answered in unison.


    Fang Xuanling suddenly looked and said, "Your Majesty, if you invite the leaders of the southwest and the leaders of the Qiang Nationality in the northwest to the military parade, you will certainly receive miraculous results."


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed. He only thought of using the military parade to frighten foreign countries, but ignored that there were many unstable factors within the Tang Dynasty, especially the continuous rebellion of bureaucrats in the southwest.


    Even Merton had to sigh that Fang Xuanling''s political wisdom was acutely aware of the role of the military parade in the stability of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Send orders to all the bureaucrats in the southwest and leaders in the northwest to attend the military parade in Chang''an city within one month." Li Shimin said strongly. Li Shimin can be said to be very annoyed with the southwest bureaucrats. If any tribal leader doesn''t come, he doesn''t know the phase. Don''t blame Li Shimin for being rude.


    "Yes!" Linghu said solemnly.

 Chapter 626

    October 1st


    The news of the military parade under the rosefinch gate blew through Chang''an city like a whirlwind, and Chang''an city was a sensation.


    "Your majesty will parade in person!"


    "It''s a great honor to be able to witness the heroic posture of my officers and men in the Tang Dynasty."


    "My child is in the army. I may see my child at the military parade."


    The people of Chang''an City were so excited that they ran to tell each other.


    The whole people of Datang have long been honored for their continuous victory in the foreign war of Datang. Now they can see the invincible army of Datang with their own eyes. How can they not make the people of Chang''an excited.


    "Why don''t you take Wu Gou and collect 50 states in Guanshan..." many scholars couldn''t help reading the poems written by Merton. Since ancient times, there have been countless scholars who have abandoned their pen to join the army, and there are not a few who have made such great achievements. Who says that scholars have no military dream in their hearts.


    "This grand event must not be missed." many people firmly decided that if they missed it, they would regret it all their life. They wanted to go to the first day of October immediately.


    Ink magazine and Confucian magazine printed special issues for the first time and delivered them to all parts of the Tang Dynasty at the fastest speed. Everywhere they went, they made a sensation. The people who heard the news were full of pride in their hearts, and many rich families immediately put down their things and rushed to Chang''an City,


    Everyone knows that such a grand event must be the scene of thousands of people. If you go late, I''m afraid you can''t even live in the firewood room of the inn.


    For a while, the passenger transport business in Mojia village was full, and many rich people wanted to rush to Chang''an city at all costs, and then charter an inn until the first day of October.


    The transportation team of Mojia village led by Li Xin did nothing and directly became the first department to turn losses into profits in the business of Mojia village.


    Honglu temple.


    Honglu temple is an institution for the Ministry of rites to receive foreign envoys, which is equivalent to the integration of the Ministry of foreign # communications and the great # Embassy in later generations.


    Linghu Deyu said proudly, "messenger Lu, thanks to the kindness of Khan''s house, I can''t bear to wait for the Tibetan people to be poor. The Tibetan people are specially allowed to use silage skills."


    "Tian Khan is merciful! Let''s thank Tian Khan for his kindness for the Tibetan people." Ludong zanton''s face was happy when he saw that Tubo could finally use this ink technique openly. Among the Mohist secrets published by Merton, Tubo had few lakes and the secret technique of live fish was almost useless. As for the artificial incubation technology, it was chicken ribs for Tubo. Tubo was mainly engaged in animal husbandry and did not lack meat at all, Where to raise chickens, ducks and geese.


    What really moved him was Merton''s silage secret skill published in Qinghai. This is the secret skill that Tubo can''t lose. It was so easy to get this secret skill, which was still beyond his expectation. He thought he would be greatly hindered and had already made preparations for massive bleeding.


    Even ludongzan is ready to turn his face. If Datang doesn''t allow it, Tubo can''t give up this secret skill even if he offends Datang. Fortunately, this trip is unexpectedly smooth.


    "Thank you for your help."


    Then he stretched out his hand and immediately a servant took out a small box of gold and presented it to Linghu dehu. Linghu dehu stretched out his hand and took it down without trace.


    "However, this secret skill was created by Mo sacrificial wine after all. Can''t he return empty handed?" Linghu dehu continued.


    Ludong zanton''s heart was cold when he hummed. At the beginning, he paid a lot of money, and the Mohist son still pretended. Now he is not in his original shape. His face is like: "but the envoy once paid a lot of money for the ink sacrifice, but the ink sacrifice is dignified and refuses to accept it."


    Thousands of good horses and ten thousand liang of gold are not small amounts. Now he has got his secret skills. Naturally, he doesn''t want to pay such a price.


    Linghu cooperated: "Mo sacrificial wine is also a proud person, and the things rejected will naturally not be asked again. However, now we are in trouble with Mo sacrificial wine. The good wine in Mojia village is slandered as being brewed from poisonous food planted with pesticides. It is said that the sorghum produced on the Tibetan Plateau is the best brewing raw material in the world, and Mo sacrificial wine needs 10000 loads of Tibetan sorghum as the raw material to solve thousands of worries."


    Ludong Zan laughed and said, "this is a small matter. Please tell Mo to offer wine. The envoy will go back to Tubo and promise to send 10000 loads of sorghum."


    Compared with the previous heavy gifts, these ten thousand loads of sorghum are hardly worth mentioning. In his opinion, Merton is stealing chicken but not rice this time. He finally moved back ten percent.


    Linghu looked at Lu Dongzan piteously and said, "Lu emissary doesn''t have to spit back in person. Your majesty will hold a big military parade under the rosefinch gate on the first day of October. At that time, all the emissaries of all countries will come. Lu emissary doesn''t have to run again."


    "The parade?" Ludongzan''s heart was shocked. He naturally heard the rumor of the military parade. At the moment, he was confirmed by Linghu Deyu. He still took a breath of cold breath. He couldn''t help but whisper that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was clever. I''m afraid the holding of the military parade in a small country will become a laughing stock. However, for a powerful country like the Tang Dynasty, its effect can''t be estimated. Even ludongzan doesn''t believe it. Do you want to have another military parade in Tubo Or something.


    "Please tell Tian Khan that Tubo will attend on time." Lu Dongzan said respectfully.


    After Linghu dehu left, Lu Dongzan changed his previous humility and sat upright and meditated for a long time. Then he ordered a Tubo secret envoy to say, "tell me all the things to solve thousands of worries."


    Lu Dongzan didn''t often stay in Chang''an City, but he left many spies. In addition, he failed to plot the secret skills of Mohism last time. Naturally, he paid special attention to Mohist village.


    "It''s true! Now that the secret recipe of Mohist wine has leaked out, there are many high-quality wines in the whole Tang Dynasty. The advantage of relieving Qianchou is gone. There is indeed a rumor that jieqianchou is making wine with poisonous grain in Chang''an city. Today, the sales of jieqianchou have plummeted." the Tibetan secret envoy carefully explained the reshuffle of the wine industry in the Tang Dynasty and the plight of jieqianchou.


    Lu Dongzan was moved and had to marvel that Merton was worthy of being a man of great intelligence. If the idea of replacing the raw material for solving Qianchou with Tubo sorghum would not only solve the dilemma of solving Qianchou, but also make jieqianchou more famous because of the sorghum from Tubo plateau.


    "Hahaha, it''s better for the Han people to fight inside. As a result, it''s cheaper for me to make Tubo. In this way, my Tubo sorghum will double its value by solving thousands of worries." Lu Dongzan believes that this is true, and he still plans to seek benefits for Tubo. If Tubo sorghum is used as raw material to solve thousands of worries, isn''t the wine made from Tubo sorghum also expensive, So the secret technique of brewing wine will be very important for Tubo.


    "Can you get the secret brewing technique to solve thousands of worries?" Lu Dongzan looked at the Tibetan secret envoy solemnly.


    The Tibetan secret envoy nodded and said, "now there are wineries everywhere in Chang''an city. It''s not difficult to get this secret skill."


    "Well, with this secret skill of silage and wine making, I''m Ludong zanton. It''s worth my trip." Ludong zanton said in high spirits.


    Ludongzan is also a wise man. He is not defeated by wisdom, but by the inequality of knowledge. He didn''t know that these ten thousand loads of sorghum were the first domino that Merton defeated Tubo. Since then, he paid much more than the thousand good horses and ten thousand liang of gold.

 Chapter 627

    After the news of the parade spread, the whole world was shocked.


    However, the real influence is the whole Datang military. When the news reached the Xishan military camp, the whole 16wei army immediately became a sensation and everyone was excited. If you can choose to enter the parade, you can boast your glory for a lifetime. How can you not make everyone excited.


    There were no less than 200000 people in the 16th guard army. It was impossible for everyone to go to the military parade. Naturally, it was to select excellent soldiers in the army. Many veterans immediately became excited and gathered around the general to start fighting for the quota.


    In the barracks, a strong man with a beard followed a general and flattered him: "general, my old Hu Ke has made many war achievements and killed countless enemies. My old Hu Ke will not lose face to the general."


    "Lao Hu, you''re not authentic. Whoever has less credit than who, why do you have to choose." Zhang Er, with a big flat head on one side, is unwilling to show weakness.


    The veteran surnamed Hu glared at Zhang Er and said, "Zhang Er, don''t forget to kill the enemy according to your military skills. You are one less than me. It''s my turn first."


    The most important thing in the army is military merit. He always talks about success or failure based on military merit. When hearing his speech, old man Zhang''s momentum suddenly weakened. However, he was unwilling to let him pass the opportunity to show his face. Suddenly, he saw a lice crawling out next to Lao Hu''s usually proud beard. He couldn''t help but respond for a while. He came up with an idea and said proudly: "Lao Hu, your Majesty''s grand parade is how sacred it is to review the three armed forces in public. Besides, with the arrival of foreign envoys, how can your head lice come out to shame? If you make a joke, you will lose your Majesty''s face."


    Other soldiers who have cut their heads and cured the head lice agree one after another: "Your Majesty is reviewing the three armed forces. How can you neglect? In our view, we should choose our soldiers who cured the head lice."


    If selected according to this standard, naturally they have the most advantage. The soldiers with short hair immediately spared no effort to publicize this point.


    Even the general on one side could not help hesitating. He naturally knew the intentions of these soldiers, but this was not unreasonable. If the soldiers of the three armed forces were covered with head lice, if it was spread out, it would be bad for the image of Datang, he would not be able to eat it.


    Lao Hu was unwilling to show weakness and said, "you are all short hair, which is not in line with my Datang hair accessories. How can you make a fool of yourself in public."


    Zhang Laoer said proudly: "anyway, I wait to wear armor, who can see it."


    The veteran surnamed Hu shouted bad in his heart. His qualifications and military skills were high. If he lost the election because of this matter, he would lose a lot. At present, he said without hesitation: "general, please wait for me. My old Hu will cut his hair and cure the head lice to ensure that he will not lose his Majesty''s people."


    Zhang Laoer said impolitely, "what about the beard?"


    "Also cut!" the old soldier surnamed Hu snapped in pain. His beard was his most proud place. Now he doesn''t care about it for the military parade.


    Soon, the practice of cutting hair to eradicate head lice prevailed again in the army. All soldiers who wanted to participate in the parade almost did not hesitate to cut their hair. Merton did not expect that the method he had always wanted to implement had inadvertently received unexpected results.


    Firearms in prison.


    "Lord sacrifice, this military parade..." as soon as Merton entered the firearms prison, Xue Rengui came forward and asked expectantly.


    With Merton taking the lead, all the officers and men of the firearm prison today are flat headed. They look at Merton one by one. The news of the military parade naturally spread to the firearm prison. How can they not be moved by such a show of face.


    "I''m the firearm supervisors in this parade..." Merton stopped for a moment and raised the appetite of the firearm supervisors.


    "All of you!" Murton snapped.


    "Ow!" suddenly everyone cheered.


    The firearms supervisor has a unique status, but the number is small, and the total number of participants is slightly thin. It can be said that he is the luckiest in the army.


    After Merton and other people cheered, he waved his hand and said, "but our firearm supervisor is the pilot of General Li''s recruit plan. We must make the chaotang up and down and refreshing this parade. Next, we will have a month''s intensive training for you. All those who fail to meet the standard will be eliminated. Our firearm supervisor would rather be absent than excessive."


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui shouted suddenly.


    Other firearms officers and men were also awed.


    Merton nodded and said, "next, I''ll teach you the first content, standing posture. Military posture is the first lesson of soldiers and the unique heroic posture of soldiers. Let others recognize you as a soldier, a soldier and a soldier at the first sight!"


    When Merton finished, he suddenly straightened up, made a standard military posture for the whole army, and suddenly shouted, "separate your feet and keep your legs straight!..."


    Firearm officers and soldiers followed suit one after another. These will be the most elite hundred cavalry from the imperial court. Naturally, it goes without saying that Merton''s progress is fast. Soon, firearm officers and soldiers have a certain charm of future soldiers.


    While Merton was teaching firearm supervisors, the news of the parade quickly spread to all departments of the party along the brick road.


    "The day Khan has an order. On the first day of October, there is a military parade in Chang''an city. Please invite the old leader of hule to watch the ceremony." a messenger from the Tang Dynasty came to hule tribe quickly.


    The old leader of hule said respectfully, "please report back to the envoy. All departments of our party will arrive on time."


    The messenger shook his head and said, "the hule tribe just needs to take care of itself. Other tribes will naturally have other messengers to deliver."


    Old man hule''s face suddenly became stiff and gloomy. Now Tuoba tribe is declining, and Tuoba chici is trapped in Chang''an city. Hule department is the largest tribe of Dangxiang departments. Naturally, he wants to compete for the position of Dangxiang leader. Unfortunately, Datang is not as good as his wish.


    At the same time, the Western Qiang tribes have also received the notice of the Tang messenger and expressed their obedience. Now the Tang has just destroyed Tuyuhun and broken the Tuoba tribe. There is no need for a big military parade, and they dare not make any changes in a short time.


    Among the bureaucrats in the southwest, when the news of the military parade came, many bureaucrats'' leaders suddenly turned pale. The bureaucrats have always been dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty. Now the Tang Dynasty has called their leaders to participate in the public military parade. The meaning can be said more clearly.


    However, after all, Datang is now powerful, and has come up with a move to change the land and return to the flow, so that each provocative tribe is like a sword hanging on its head. Although the provocative leader has deep resentment in his heart, they all rush to Chang''an city.


    With the passage of time, Gaochang, Tuyuhun in Murong Shunxin, tiele nine in the northern grassland, West Turk and Koguryo sent envoys to Chang''an city one after another.


    For a moment, the world gathered in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 628

    More and more people poured into Chang''an City, which was a great test for Chang''an city. The new year''s Eve Lantern Festival at the beginning of the year was just an appetizer for Chang''an City, and the military parade was a big meal.


    The Lantern Festival on New Year''s Eve was just an influx of people from Luoyang or other surrounding counties. This time, the people of the whole Tang Dynasty heard the news. However, in half a month, 200000 people poured into Chang''an City, and many people were still on the road and kept coming to Chang''an city. There were an endless stream of carriages in and out of the main gates of Chang''an city.


    Fortunately, Merton got a large number of horses from Tuyuhun and put them into the market. In addition, four-wheel carriages sell well. Otherwise, they really can''t support such a strong flow of people.


    Many people obviously feel that the whole Chang''an city is crowded at once, but it is a huge business opportunity for merchants in Chang''an city. Most of the people who have time to go to Chang''an city to watch the military parade are rich people. These people come to Chang''an City for food, drink, housing and use. All kinds of expenses are not a small amount, and many people earn a lot of money.


    In any dynasty, the capital city is the center of the world. In particular, all the main roads in Chang''an City have been paved with brick roads, clean and tidy streets, an endless stream of four-wheel buses and magnificent buildings. Compared with the dilapidated and messy of other cities, they are very different. They immediately conquer everyone who comes to Chang''an city.


    "This is the prosperous age!" a white haired old man got out of the carriage and saw Chang''an city. His heart was shocked and whispered.


    "It''s a worthwhile trip. Before that, we only heard about the grandeur of Chang''an city. Now we get what we want. It''s really worthy of our reputation." the companion on the side looked straight.


    Compared with the small town where they live, compared with Chang''an City, it is just the countryside, and the original sense of superiority suddenly disappeared.


    "After I return home this time, I will certainly play the county magistrate at the meeting and follow the example of Chang''an city to govern the county." the white haired old man said firmly. Almost everyone who arrives in Chang''an City has this idea. It is naturally impossible for them to stay in Chang''an city. The only way is to change their county.


    "Three years ago, I came to Chang''an city to take the exam. Chang''an city is still a dirt road. Today, Chang''an City has become unrecognizable." on the other carriage, several dusty Confucian scholars came down. Looking at the greatly changed Chang''an City, they couldn''t help sighing.


    "This is the work of our Confucianism in governing the world, so we just have this image of great harmony." a younger Confucian student came to Chang''an City for the first time and couldn''t help exclaiming.


    The coachman on the side couldn''t help laughing and said, "the young man laughed. The four-wheel carriage you took was made by mojiazi, the brick road you stepped on was pioneered by mojiazi, and the bus running on the street was proposed by mojiazi,......"


    With the coachman telling one by one, the young Confucian students immediately blushed. It seems that the transformation of Chang''an city is almost the credit of Mohism.


    "Also, from your point of view, Chang''an city is already the best city in the world. That''s because you haven''t seen the urban planning map of Mojia village, otherwise you will find that Chang''an city still has a lot to improve." the coachman looked at the people like a steamed stuffed bun, drank loudly and drove away.


    Both the Confucian scholars and the old men in white couldn''t help looking at each other. They didn''t expect that they were despised by a coachman. In particular, the expression of the coachman when he left made them very uncomfortable.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    It was not only ordinary people who were conquered by Chang''an city. With the close proximity of time, tribal leaders and foreign missions arrived in Chang''an city one after another.


    "This is Chang''an City?"


    When the leaders of Southwest bureaucrats entered Chang''an City, they immediately looked like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, stretched out their necks and stared round.


    Originally, they were ordinary tribal leaders. They only dominate one-third of their acre on weekdays, just like frogs at the bottom of a well. Now they came to Chang''an City, traveled thousands of miles, saw the magnificent territory and countless population, and their original sense of superiority suddenly disappeared.


    One by one, they couldn''t help looking at each other. Their faces were uncertain. They carefully compared the strength of their own tribes with that of Datang. Even if a group of tribes combined, they would die.


    "Fortunately..."


    Many bureaucrats can''t help but rejoice that it was not their own tribe that rebelled.


    "Eh! I didn''t think there were people with short hair in Chang''an city." a young tribal leader surprised a common people who cut hair and cured head lice in the street.


    "How can it be that the Han people attach great importance to hair ornaments, and how can they easily break their hair." an elderly tribal leader was unconvinced.


    "Really!" a group of tribal leaders found that more and more people with short hair were surprised.


    Most of the Liao tribes live in the south. The weather is hot. Many provocative people have short hair, and even many leaders have short hair. Now I see many people with short hair in Chang''an City, and I can''t help being close to them.


    Moreover, they found that the short hair of the people in Chang''an city was more shaped, but it was much better than their randomly cut hair, so they were greatly moved.


    The carriage went all the way and soon came to Honglu temple.


    "You will live in Honglu temple for the time being and wait for the arrangement of the imperial court to participate in the military parade on time." a small official of Honglu temple said arrogantly.


    At the moment, none of the leaders who are domineering in the tribe is angry. Instead, they smile and say, "this senior official, we also admire Chang''an City for a long time. I wonder if we can visit Chang''an city."


    The official of Honglu temple said impatiently, "it''s natural. You can walk by yourself. You just need to come back before the curfew."


    "Visit by yourself?" a leader said discontentedly, pointing to the Hu delegation led by officials of Honglu temple, "then why are they accompanied by special personnel?"


    The official of Honglu Temple looked at the head in surprise and said, "they are Hu people and you are Tang people. Do you want their treatment?"


    "Tang people?" a surprised feeling suddenly rose in the hearts of the leaders. They have always refused to accept the imperial court. Naturally, they did not expect that the imperial court still treats them as their own people.


    "Your Majesty has a broad mind, which we admire!" a group of tribal leaders immediately convinced.


    A group of tribal leaders understand that the leadership of Honglu Temple seems to have a noble status, but it is actually like surveillance, and Li Shimin allows them to move around by themselves, which is a kind of trust.


    So, in the envious eyes of envoys from western countries, a group of officials and leaders proudly walked out of the gate of Honglu temple and enjoyed the prosperity of Chang''an city.


    Of course, the first thing they do is to cut a nice flat head.


    The leaders of the Northwest Dangxiang and the Western Qiang are treated the same as the leaders of the bureaucrats. As for the envoys of various countries, they are not treated so well. They are accompanied by special personnel wherever they go. Although they do not interfere with freedom, it''s hard to feel like walking with each other.

 Chapter 629

    People all over the world gathered in Chang''an City, and the chaotang naturally paid more attention.


    "Tell your majesty, as soon as people all over the world come to Chang''an City, they all fall in love with it and exclaim that this is the phase of prosperity." in the Tai Chi hall, Li Junxian reports to Li Shimin with a smile on his face.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin couldn''t help showing a trace of satisfaction. Chang''an City has indeed developed very rapidly in the past two years. Even he can feel the great changes in Chang''an city. Of course, the money in it is also scattered like running water.


    "Now tens of thousands of people pour into Chang''an city every day. Now most of the major restaurants are hard to find a room. The price of hotels and inns has doubled and is still hard to find."


    Datang underestimated the attraction of the parade to ordinary people. According to the news, most of the people in the North arrived, and a large number of people in the south are coming along the canal. At that time, there will be many more people in Chang''an city.


    Li Shimin''s face coagulated and said, "send the order and let Chang''an order properly settle the people who came to watch the ceremony, and severely punish the inn that maliciously slaughtered the guests, so as to prevent the people from coming on the occasion and returning on the contrary."


    The military parade was a time for the imperial court to show the national strength of the people. It was the most glorious time of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin naturally wanted to do it perfectly.


    "If the people know your Majesty''s hard work, they will be grateful to the tears forest." Li Junxian said respectfully.


    "Have the leaders of the southwest and northwest and the envoys of other countries arrived?" Li Shimin suddenly remembered and asked.


    Li Junxian nodded and said, "now most of them have arrived in Qi, and only a few far away are still on the road. Your majesty is famous all over the world. Who dares not to obey the order."


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said humbly, "if the Tang army were invincible without me, how many people would listen to Khan''s words this day."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Li Junxian admires.


    "Are these leaders and messengers honest when they arrive at Chang''an City?" Li Shimin said in his heart.


    Li Junxian couldn''t help laughing and said quickly, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. The heads of the northwest departments are OK, but a very funny thing can happen to the heads of the southwest bureaucrats?"


    "Really?" Li Shimin asked with great interest.


    "After these leaders came to Chang''an City, they went so far as to" not only complete the military parade, but also fully display the power of the Tang Dynasty. "


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly sank. The military parade is related to the imperial court''s plan to deter the silk road. If it becomes a joke, I''m afraid it will become a laughing stock instead of deterrence.


    Linghu Deyu immediately wondered: "Your Majesty, the matter still needs to be solved. The big parade was mentioned by the ink sacrifice wine. It must be well thought out to come to the ink sacrifice wine, and the ink sacrifice wine has held ink technology exhibitions many times. If the ink sacrifice wine can be temporarily transferred to the ritual department to assist in the big parade, I believe it will be successful."


    The parade is getting more and more noisy now. The whole world pays attention to it. If it is not done well, I''m afraid the Ministry of officials will not only make no contribution, but also have it. Linghu Deyu is already burning eyebrows at the moment. He named Merton again to take charge of it.


    After pondering for a while, Li Shimin thought that although Merton loved to toss, his brain was still very flexible. He nodded and asked, "where is Merton now?"


    Linghu Deyu quickly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that Mo sacrificial wine directly closed the firearms prison for intensive training, and is preparing for the military parade."


    He had long wanted to pull Merton into the water. At the moment, it was clear what Merton was doing. He blurted out at the moment.


    "Then give the training task to others. Take my order and ask him to help Linghu Shangshu run the military parade first." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" said Linghu Deyu with great joy.


    Fox de was relieved. With the participation of Merton, as long as it can be as wonderful as the ink technology exhibition, it will certainly be able to please Li Shimin. Of course, he still made two hands of preparation. If Merton is not good, he doesn''t ask for merit, but for no fault.


    When the fox took the order, he rushed to the firearm prison and rushed directly to Merton.


    "What, let me help with the parade," Merton said incredulously.


    Linghu dehu laughed and said, "yes! This is your Majesty''s order. Before and after the military parade, the ink sacrifice is the person in my ritual department."


    After a lot of hard work, he finally put mojiazi into his pocket. Even for a short time, he beat the other six.


    Merton carefully looked at Li Shimin''s warrant, and then reluctantly summoned Xue Rengui and said, "I''ll give you the rest of the task of firearms supervision and training. You must be perfect during the military parade."


    Xue Rengui immediately straightened up and said, "don''t worry, worship Lord. At the end of the day, we will ensure the completion of the task."


    Merton was still worried and said, "I will check it myself every two days in the future. Lord Linghu can approve it at this time!"


    Linghu nodded without hesitation and said, "as long as Mo sacrificial wine can help the ritual department arrange the military parade, everything else is easy to say."


    Merton reluctantly followed Linghu Deyu away. He didn''t expect that in the end, the position of commander-in-chief of the parade fell on his head.

 Chapter 630

    "This is how you prepare for the parade!"


    In the ritual department, Merton looked at a group of ritual officials with an incredible face. These people turned a shocking military parade into a bloated and long sacrificial activity. No wonder those people in the military department didn''t want to.


    An official of the Ministry of rites said unconvinced, "we read history books and learned from the allusions of the three armed forces since the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Most of them are just like this."


    Merton said unhappily, "the emperors of the three armed forces of all dynasties have ordered troops to show off their strength. This time, our purpose is not only to show the strength of the Tang dynasty like ordinary people, but also to frighten the envoys of other countries, which is very different."


    "The military also disagreed many times. They wanted to follow their own plan. The two sides had different opinions, so they asked Mo sacrifice to come to help." Linghu Deyu said roundly.


    Merton looked at the military plan, threw it out and said, "the military is also not good. If you follow the military plan, it''s no different from pulling up the army to walk around Chang''an city."


    The etiquette officials felt a little better and looked at Merton.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "the most objects displayed this time are ordinary people, so the set of sacrifice can''t be used, but you can start with the founding history of the Tang Dynasty. What do you think?"


    "The history of the founding of the Tang Dynasty?" Linghu Deyu thought deeply.


    "Yes, let''s start from Jinyang!" Merton said.


    "Jinyang start!" Linghu dehu suddenly brightened his eyes, and the supreme emperor was still there. If he started from Jinyang, he could please the two emperors at once, which was of great historical significance, and it was also in line with the style of the Ministry of rites.


    "But the Tang Dynasty has reorganized the army several times in a row, and the original army has long dispersed. Where can we find these troops!" an official of the etiquette Department frowned.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "although the army is scattered, I believe we can still find some veterans. Find these veterans and form a square team. Unfortunately, my one armed Uncle Wang of Mojia village is a veteran who started in Taiyuan."


    Gathering sages does not avoid their relatives. Merton recommends one armed Uncle Wang without any psychological burden.


    Linghu Deyu naturally wouldn''t reject Merton''s face because of this small matter. He nodded and said, "in this way, it''s also feasible."


    Anyway, it''s not a marching war. Just let these veterans go to the square. These veterans are all members of the army. With a little training, they will be able to complete it successfully.


    "By the way, in addition to looking for these veterans, it''s best to find the armor weapons at that time. If you don''t have them, let the weapon supervisor hurry up to make a batch," Merton reminded.


    Linghu Deyu couldn''t help but thumbs up and said, "ink sacrifice is a good idea."


    Seeing that he had been having a headache, Merton soon had a clue when he came here. He couldn''t help sighing. With a big hand, an official of the Ministry of etiquette immediately went down to take charge of the matter.


    "In addition to the troops in Jinyang, there were many rebel troops at that time..." Linghu drew inferences from one instance.


    Merton nodded and soon finalized the process of the former army with Linghu Deyu.


    "The former army is to recall the glory of the past for your majesty and the supreme emperor, while the middle army is to show the power of the Tang Dynasty to the people. Look, this can pull out all kinds of powerful and advanced weapons in the army and open the eyes of the people. The effect must be extraordinary."


    "Pull out the powerful weapons in the army! It''s simple!" Linghu nodded.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, it''s not so simple. Although our Datang weapons are powerful, many of them can show their power in wartime. How can the people understand in a hurry? In this way, how can they have a shocking effect."


    Linghu de Yu frowned and said, "what can we do? Can we let these weapons practice on the spot?"


    "Of course it''s impossible. For one thing, the time is limited, and for the other, the venue is limited. Naturally, we don''t have time to drill, but we can find someone to tell the people how powerful and powerful the weapons passed in front of them." Merton said proudly.


    "That''s ok?" a etiquette official was stunned.


    "Yes, why not?" Linghu Deyu said excitedly, "we should not only explain to the people that weapons are powerful, but also to leaders, envoys of all countries, even civil and military officials and his majesty."


    "But where can I find so many people?" the etiquette official frowned.


    "There are some literate people in the army. These officers and men also know more about these weapons and explain them more clearly. In front of your majesty and envoys of all nations, you need the Ministry of rites," Morton said.


    Linghu Deyu said with satisfaction: "just according to the meaning of ink sacrifice, there are still some people in front of your majesty and envoys of all countries in our ritual department."


    "That''s not over!" Merton said again.


    "And?" the whole etiquette Department looked at Merton strangely, making them talk freely in front of Merton, solve them easily, and one by one.


    "The power of all weapons can also be published in the whole process of Mohist and Confucian journals. When the next issue is published, the whole Tang Dynasty can cheer for our army." Merton said positively. This time, he completely stood on a fair position and directly let Mo magazine and Confucian magazine enter at the same time to compete fairly.


    This time, the whole etiquette department was convinced, and the worries in Linghu''s heart had long disappeared. If Merton''s method was followed, they were all excited, not to mention that the army practiced in person at the military parade, the mood of the people would be even higher.


    "As for the rear army, it is a square column of the most elite soldiers sent by all the armies of the Tang Dynasty to show the grandeur of our officers and soldiers." Merton relaxed his breath. In Merton''s view, the rear army can be said to be the simplest.


    However, Linghu Dehui said with a bitter smile: "the ink sacrifice wine doesn''t know. This is exactly the most difficult place. Almost every army wants to participate. Even after the news came, the garrisons all over the country have asked to participate, and the military department is still in a tight fight."


    Merton was stunned. If he read all the troops of Datang, he might not finish it in a day.


    "Then select the most representative troops or the troops with the most difficult conditions. In this way, it can also arouse the people''s feelings. As for the number, it is set in the 100 person team. If other troops are dissatisfied, they can also arrange some tasks to maintain order at the military parade, which is an explanation." Merton said.


    Linghu de nodded. In this way, those who were elected were justified and those who lost were settled. In this way, the interests of the military were balanced to the greatest extent.


    "In addition, in the whole parade ceremony, we should also know how to mobilize our emotions, be quiet when it''s time to be quiet, cheer when it''s time to cheer,..."


    In Merton''s dry mouth explanation, the whole process of the parade was finally settled.

 Chapter 631

    "How is the ceremony Department preparing for the parade?" Li Shimin asked anxiously in the Tai Chi hall.


    Li Junxian bowed and said, "Your Majesty, since Linghu Shangshu summoned mohou into the Ministry of rites, the process was quickly determined, and the proposed scheme was very satisfactory to the Ministry of rites and the Ministry of war. Now the two departments are making intensive secret training, and I believe we will not disappoint your majesty."


    "Oh! Keep it a secret!" Li Shimin said with great interest.


    Li Junxian said with a smile, "there is ink offering wine. I believe this military parade will certainly surprise your majesty."


    "Surprise, I hope it''s not scare!" Li Shimin laughed. He had no doubt about the ability of Merton''s boy to toss, but as for the effect, it''s better to keep a few points. However, Merton''s plan can satisfy both the military department and the etiquette department, which made him look forward to it.


    Li Junxian smiled. Naturally, he couldn''t answer the topic.


    "Continue to pay close attention to Chang''an city. There should be no trouble before and after the military parade." Li Shimin ordered.


    "Yes!" Li Junxian said positively.


    The order on the surface will naturally be controlled by Chang''an City and Jin Wuwei, while the order in the dark will naturally be in the charge of hundreds of horses. There are many tasks to be investigated. Some envoys from the western regions are ready to move, and the leaders of various tribes also have restless people. Even the people who come to Chang''an City need to be investigated secretly to prevent some bandits from sneaking in.


    As more and more people entered Chang''an City, the time for the military parade was getting closer and closer. Merton began to be busy again. He was pulled by Linghu Deyu, the waiter of the Ministry of rites, to review the military parade team in advance. What worried Merton most was the first team, the Jinyang veterans team.


    "Don''t worry! With the proposal of ink offering wine, the ritual department rushed to Jinyang for the first time and looked for 100 Jinyang veterans." Linghu Deyu said proudly.


    Merton pointed at the school field and said, "these are the people you''re looking for!"


    Most of these Jinyang veterans have gray hair and even have a large belly. They are like soldiers. They are simply rural rich men. No, they are their father.


    When Li Yuan set up troops in Jinyang, most of them were local veterans. After calming down the world, he either promoted to be a marquis, stayed in Chang''an City, or returned home. Jinyang is indeed the easiest place to find veterans.


    However, after returning, these veterans generally have rich rewards. In addition, they have been rewarded with a large number of land products. Suddenly, they live a comfortable life, and their bodies will soon get fat. Compared with Uncle Wang, one can equal two weights.


    Linghu Deyu was embarrassed and said, "many of them are the soldiers of the emperor."


    Merton understood the Tao in an instant. It turned out that Linghu dehu wanted to flatter Li Yuan and specially found these people.


    "This is a big parade. Do you think these people look like soldiers? Can they take their hands?" Merton said helplessly.


    "Who says I''m not like a soldier and can''t take it? The younger generation, why don''t we wait for a fight." a Jinyang veteran with big arms and waist had a sharp ear. When he heard Merton''s dialogue, he looked insulted and repeatedly raised his sleeves to rush at Merton.


    Uncle Wang with one arm moved. With one hand clasped the fat veteran''s shoulder and a little force, he immediately controlled the man on the ground.


    "Let go of me. When I was a soldier beside the supreme emperor, you didn''t know where to feed?" the fat veteran couldn''t help but roar.


    Merton reluctantly spread his hands and said to Linghu de: "I''m afraid he can''t even wear armor now. How can he participate in the grand parade? Moreover, it''s not easy to wear armor throughout the grand parade. Do you think he can stick to it."


    Many fat veterans immediately felt ashamed. They had just participated in training and felt overwhelmed. If they wore armor all the way, I''m afraid few could stick to it.


    "But it''s too late to find time now." Linghu De Fu said helplessly.


    "Look for it in Chang''an City first, and you can always find it. Uncle Wang, you lead them in the whole process of armor training. You don''t want to fight the enemy. As long as you stick to the whole process, but the military discipline should be correct." Merton said reluctantly, you can only ask these veterans. After all, not every veteran is so self disciplined, or you are responsible for training Mohist village guards to one armed Uncle Wang, I haven''t left my martial arts at all.


    "Don''t worry, young master." Wang Shu, one armed, said in a positive tone.


    "What about me?" the fat veteran jumped up reluctantly.


    Merton said reluctantly, "if you don''t have suitable armor, you can''t help it, but you can be responsible for maintaining order in Zhuque street."


    A group of fat veterans immediately looked regretful. They lost such a great opportunity by themselves. Fortunately, they were also on Zhuque street. It was a worthwhile trip.


    Merton and Linghu Deyu immediately reviewed other parade teams. The others were soldiers in service. Naturally, they didn''t have so many problems as veterans. What they wanted was only the requirements of formation. Generally speaking, it could be justified. After all, it was the largest parade. It could be according to the normal queue.


    What really bothered them was the military''s weapon display, especially Cheng Yaojin, who was in charge of the matter


    Cheng Yaojin looked excited and pointed to a five foot high siege Corridor: "Mo boy, what do you think of this weapon? I''m sure the envoys of the western countries will be scared to death after seeing it."


    Morton helplessly covered his face and said, "Uncle Cheng, this weapon is indeed powerful, but are you sure you can pass it through the south gate?"


    The highest of Nancheng gate is only one and a half feet. Such a tall siege weapon is indeed powerful, but whether it can be transported to Chang''an city or not, Cheng Yaojin''s heart is too big.


    "Forget it!" Cheng Yaojin gave it up with a regretful face.


    "This is not good, this is not good!..." Merton picked out more than ten weapons that are not suitable for display. Rao is so. There are still many weapons to choose in front of the public.


    Linghu de Yu frowned and said, "there are still too many weapons. If all of them participate, the time is not enough."


    "That''s not good. I''ve been working hard for so long. The etiquette Department said no. Cheng Yaojin was worried.


    "The Chinese army can only give you ten squadrons!" Linghu de Yu shook his head.


    "At least twenty, that''s not enough?" Cheng Yaojin said urgently.


    "Fifteen, no more." Linghu said firmly.


    Seeing that the two were in a stalemate, Merton had to mediate reluctantly: "you don''t have to fight anymore, uncle Cheng. These weapons don''t have to be displayed alone. Can the square array of knife and shield be one with two, and can the bow and crossbow be repeated? Can you give the crossbow to the Spearman to carry,......"


    Merton finally arranged the whole weapons, and the whole audit was over.


    "Hoo, finally ready." Linghu de heaved a heavy sigh of relief.


    Merton sniffed and said, "Lord Linghu, where is this over? There is more important work to do next?"


    "Still have?" Linghu De''s heart trembled.


    Merton nodded and said, "at the moment, each department is just a plate of loose sand, fighting on its own. What we have to do next is to twist them into a rope, which is the key to the success or failure of the whole parade."


    "Twist it into a rope! What should I do?" Linghu Deyu wondered.


    "Rehearsal!" Merton said solemnly.

 Chapter 632

    "The so-called dress rehearsal is to gather all the parade teams together first, just like a formal parade. First, rehearse several times to see what needs to be improved in time." Merton explained.


    Linghu Deyu suddenly felt that he couldn''t help beating his heart. It would be best if he could successfully complete the parade without making mistakes.


    "The military parade is the first time in the world, and there is no previous experience to copy. Therefore, the rehearsal mentioned by Mo sacrificial wine is really necessary." Linghu dehu nodded and agreed.


    "Ten years off the stage, a quarter of an hour on the stage, we have been busy for a month, so we naturally want to be perfect." Merton solemnly said.


    Moreover, what a solemn moment the parade is, naturally there can be no mistakes.


    The more Linghu thought about it, the more he felt the importance of the rehearsal. At present, he did not hesitate to say, "now when I go back, I will immediately block Zhuque street for the rehearsal of the military parade."


    Merton quickly stopped: "no, the most important thing in the rehearsal is to keep it secret. If we rehearse openly on rosefinch street, the people will watch one after another. In this way, what effect will it have on the first day of October, when there is a real military parade."


    "That''s what I said." Linghu took a pat on his forehead and said, "in terms of mohou, where is the best rehearsal."


    Merton pointed to the west of the city and said with a smile, "Lord Linghu, if you want to say that confidentiality is more strict than Xishan camp."


    Linghu nodded heavily and said, "we are for the military, let alone borrow Xishan camp. Even if we borrow it from his military headquarters, they have to make room for us."


    At that moment, Linghu Deyu ordered an official of the Ministry of rites to say, "send a message to the Ministry of war, saying that two days later, rehearse at the Xishan military camp so that all the troops are ready."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Two days later,


    In the Xishan camp, Merton, Linghu Deyu and all the generals looked at the crooked team in front of them, and each one looked gloomy.


    "In this way, if we go out for the military parade, I''m afraid we''ll laugh off our big teeth!" Linghu dehu glanced at Merton happily. Fortunately, Merton reminded them to rehearse in advance, otherwise the cooperation of each team would be so raw, I''m afraid it would be difficult to even walk through rosefinch street.


    Li Jing also said angrily: "there is no problem with a single team. The connection of each team is either fast or slow. I''m afraid it will be even worse in the face of civil and military officials and envoys of various countries."


    Other military generals were also embarrassed. Many of them were their subordinates and let them lose their adults.


    "Don''t worry, generals. This is the first rehearsal. Problems are inevitable. I believe more times will be enough. It''s much better," Morton comforted.


    The crowd looked a little slower.


    "However, the ugly talk is ahead. If there are problems in the rehearsal process, I''m afraid I won''t be able to have a big parade." Merton said directly.


    Li Jing said without hesitation, "that''s nature. The opportunity is given to them. They are not sure and can''t blame others."


    Other generals naturally disagree. If their subordinates make a fool of themselves, I''m afraid they can''t even fall behind.


    After the news that they would be eliminated if they didn''t practice well came out, the teams became more cautious. Sure enough, there were many fewer problems in the second rehearsal. By the fifth time, many generals had shown a satisfied smile,


    "Only with such a military appearance can we deserve the invincible reputation of the Tang Dynasty." Li Jing laughed.


    "If your majesty sees this scene, he will be very happy." Linghu De Fu looked at the majestic team in front of him and said proudly.


    In his opinion, as long as it was a big military parade, according to such a drill, it must have shocked the whole city, which made Hu Deyu sigh. Before that, he was worried about how much white hair he had. He didn''t expect that these problems would be so simple and easy to solve in the hands of Mohist Zi.


    Thinking of this, Linghu looked at Merton, but found that Merton looked worried.


    "Ink offering wine, isn''t it satisfied?" Linghu de frowned.


    Suddenly all the generals looked at Merton. In their opinion, such a team had reached good enough.


    "The square array of the armies is naturally impeccable, but the boy feels that there is still something missing?" Merton thought deeply, but he couldn''t catch the light.


    "What is missing?"


    When Merton mentioned this, other generals realized that it was a little dull.


    "The battle field is strong and fierce. Although the parade looks majestic, it makes people feel uneasy in the atmosphere." Cheng Yaojin also frowned.


    Merton said in his heart, "boy, I once heard the drums shaking, people shouting, horses hissing, knives and guns shouting on the battlefield. That''s the most exciting moment. Look at the boy, this rehearsal is a little too quiet."


    "Yes! It''s so quiet!"


    The generals suddenly realized the truth. After a big war, the sound of horses'' hoofs roared and the sound of shouting and killing continued. This rehearsal seems to be the right content of military discipline, but it lacks such a charm.


    "No, if I wait in front of each square team, how about adding some military drums!" Li Jing said in his heart,


    At that moment, Li Jing ordered the military drums of the general to be carried up. During the rehearsal again, the rehearsal really added a bit of prestige in the bursts of military drums.


    "The sword and shield soldiers can hit the shield with a knife!"


    "Spearmen can stab three times in a row."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone said a word to me. Soon, the whole rehearsal became vivid. This time, even Li Jing nodded with satisfaction.


    "Not enough!" Merton still shook his head, which still did not reach the ideal parade scene in Merton''s mind.


    "That''s all right!" Linghu de Yu said silently. It''s quite different from the military parade he designed before. In his opinion, he can''t find anything wrong.


    Merton thought for a while, and then suddenly said, "yes, there is no slogan!"


    "Slogans!" the crowd was foggy one by one.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "yes! It''s a slogan. Each square team thinks of a slogan to protect the country or to be loyal to his majesty. When the square team passes through the rosefinch gate, a hundred people shout out in unison, which will certainly shock the four.


    "OK, that''s a good idea! I want the slogan of protecting our country!" Cheng Yaojin laughed and took the opportunity to start.


    The generals immediately regretted that they were a step late and were preempted by the old thief Cheng Yaojin.


    "Then our army will choose me to be invincible!" Yuchi Jingde immediately took the lead.


    "Our military election............!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The generals quickly came up with a slogan for their subordinates.


    Soon, among all the squads, only the veterans did not find a suitable slogan. They have retired and can''t use them to kill the enemy and protect the country.


    "Lao Wang, what do you say? We''re all big men and can''t think of any good slogans! All the good slogans have been robbed by those generals." a veteran said with a sad face.


    One armed Uncle Wang said calmly, "we can''t think of anything to panic about. Someone will help us think of a good one."


    In the expectant eyes of the veterans, Uncle Wang strode to Merton. After a while, he came back expressionless.


    "How''s it going?" many veterans frowned. Lao Wang came back too soon. Did he not succeed.


    One armed Uncle Wang waved one arm hard and said excitedly, "it''s natural. The young master thought of the most suitable and loud slogan for us."


    "What is it?" the crowd said excitedly.


    "If there is a war, the call will come back." one armed uncle said word by word.

 Chapter 633

    "If there is war, call back!"


    Listening to this slogan, a group of veterans were shocked. The experience of fighting on the battlefield in those years once again came to their hearts. They were a little crazy. They managed to survive the battlefield and get a stable life. However, once called up by the imperial court, they will go to the battlefield at the first time.


    An old horse is in charge of Carpinus and has a long-term ambition. Even if they are old, as long as they can pick up the steel knife in their hand, they will certainly shed blood and sacrifice for the Tang Dynasty without hesitation, because they fight for this beautiful river and mountain one by one.


    "If there is war, call back!"


    "If there is war, call back!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The veterans shouted their slogans again and again, and a look of pride appeared on their faces. Suddenly, an iron will condensed on the school field and immediately infected all the soldiers.


    Many soldiers in the squadron are also envious. Once the slogan of veterans is put forward, it will certainly shine. Unfortunately, this slogan is only suitable for veterans, not for them.


    More soldiers are heroic in their hearts. Even veterans don''t forget to fight. As soldiers in service, they are naturally unwilling to fall behind. Suddenly, they shout slogans one after another louder.


    "Mo boy really has some ghost ideas! This slogan is amazing!" Cheng Yaojin patted his thigh and exclaimed. He has been fighting for many years. Although he has been a general, he also has deep feelings about this slogan.


    Morton said modestly, "the boy just said what these veterans want."


    Li Jing nodded. At the moment, he has lived a semi retired life, and all the military affairs at hand have been put down. However, how can he put down the military brigade that has been fighting for a lifetime? If the imperial court recruits again, I''m afraid he will still choose to go out again.


    "Oh! No! Now that the parade team has basically taken shape, why is it only lack of your firearm supervisor?" Cheng Yaojin suddenly wondered.


    Reasonably speaking, according to the importance of the firearm supervisor, the power of gunpowder is the most powerful and shocking in order to intimidate foreign races. Merton has been rehearsing at the scene, which makes Cheng Yaojin and others ignore an important problem one by one, that is, the firearm supervisor''s team has never appeared.


    Other generals also looked at it in doubt. If Merton deliberately didn''t let the firearms supervisor participate in the military parade in order to avoid suspicion, they would never believe it. This boy is not so dignified.


    Merton said with a smile, "the firearm supervision team is related to the recruit plan. Naturally, it should be more confidential. However, Linghu Shangshu and General Li have personally inspected the firearm supervision team, and everyone is full of praise. Naturally, they won''t fall off the chain at that time."


    When Merton said this, Cheng Yaojin and others were even more itchy. They encouraged him to say, "we are all rehearsing, but it''s not good to lack your firearm supervisor. It''s hard to explain in case of an accident."


    Merton laughed and said, "Uncle Cheng, don''t worry. We are rehearsing in Xishan camp this time. Until September 28, we will rehearse in Zhuque street all night after the curfew to make the soldiers adapt to the venue. At that time, the firearms supervision team will appear."


    Cheng Yaojin couldn''t help but look at the corners of his mouth. Merton still pretends to be mysterious. What can he see clearly after the curfew?


    "Rehearsal!"


    Linghu Dezhen couldn''t help but move in his heart. From re formulating the parade process, to slogans, rehearsals, to rehearsals, step by step, it can be said that it is a connection at all levels. The success of the Mohist school is by no means a fluke.


    September 28 night!


    In the past, the bustling rosefinch street was silent. On weekdays, the dark streets were illuminated by torches. Under the light of torches, teams of soldiers walked through the rosefinch door in an orderly manner according to the sequence of dress rehearsal.


    Everyone is as like as two peas, because tonight''s preview is directly the same as the parade. Only tonight''s success can the grand parade be carried out normally.


    Loud slogans resounded through the night sky, but they only alerted the residents on both sides of Zhuque street. For this rehearsal, the government had informed the people of tonight in advance and ordered them not to go out. Even if their hearts were itchy, these residents could only restrain their anxiety and did not step out of their houses.


    Fortunately, there was no mistake in the rehearsal. All the soldiers have been trained for many days and can be carried out in an orderly manner as before.


    All the generals looked at the rehearsal with satisfaction and were extremely satisfied with the performance of their subordinates. However, this satisfaction lasted only a quarter of an hour. When the last army then appeared in front of the generals with hazy torch light, all the generals were stunned.


    "This is the firearm supervision team!" Cheng Yaojin opened his eyes and looked at the last team in disbelief. The sleepiness of staying up all night suddenly disappeared. Compared with the team in front of him, his left leading guard was simply ugly.


    It''s not that the left leader Wei''s army is not in good shape, but that the firearms supervision team is really shocked.


    In fact, not only the left leader guard, but also other generals were shocked. They never thought that the army could still play like this.


    Li Jing also took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart. The recruit plan envisaged in his heart can be said to be perfectly displayed by Merton''s firearm supervision team. If all the officers and soldiers of Datang are like this, joining the army will be a career that everyone will envy.


    Linghu Deyu was even more excited. The firearms supervision team will be the highlight of the military parade. He believed that the military parade will certainly make the imperial court more satisfied. With the military parade, the ritual department will add another large ceremony from now on.


    The rehearsal was rehearsed five times, and the whole team finally reached perfection and cooperated seamlessly.


    At five o''clock, it was about to dawn. Merton looked at the sky and turned to Li Jing and Linghu Deyu and suggested, "relax. Now we have been busy for nearly a month and a busy night. Today, it''s better to let the team rest for a day and conserve energy. Tomorrow, we will succeed in one fell swoop."


    Li Jing nodded in agreement. Li Jing turned to the generals and said, "let all the troops go back to camp and have a good rest. Tomorrow we will show the world that we are the invincible army of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Promise!"


    The generals took orders one after another.


    When the East had just turned white, the parade team slowly withdrew from Chang''an city. However, the movement last night had already alerted many people. At dawn, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar, and the topics discussed were all about the parade.


    However, most of what people know is rare. Hearsay has become more and more mysterious. For a moment, the topic of the military parade was completely detonated in Chang''an City, which is what people expect.

 Chapter 634

    September 30!


    On this day, the influx of people into Chang''an City reached the peak! In front of the main gates of Chang''an City, cars and horses from all over the Tang Dynasty almost lined up in front of each gate.


    Chang''an City has been overcrowded for a long time, but it still can''t stop the enthusiasm of the people. It won''t let go of this unprecedented public parade. Once it arrived in Chang''an City, it was crazy to inquire about the news of the parade.


    "The time has been set! It''s the last hour of tomorrow." in the pan restaurant, manager Pan''s nephew panted over with a big flat head and shouted.


    Nowadays, in Chang''an City, it is not surprising that there are flat heads, and they will not be ridiculed. They can even satirize other people''s full head lice, especially those engaged in the catering industry.


    Even in some exquisite restaurants, the shopkeeper knows that the kitchen staff must cut their hair and eradicate head lice, which has now spread to the front hall.


    "Si Shi! Si Shi on the first day of October! It''s a auspicious day." many diners nodded, which is nine o''clock in future generations,


    "By the way, Xiao pan, did you know anything about last night''s parade rehearsal?" a diner suddenly asked.


    Shopkeeper Pan''s nephew immediately beamed and said, "my guest, you can ask the right person. Last night, the little one was on duty in the restaurant Datang. Just after sleeping, he heard that a large number of soldiers came on Zhuque street and blocked the street. All the squadrons have played!"


    Other diners looked at shopkeeper Pan''s nephew with envy and said, "didn''t your boy look like a big parade in advance?"


    Shopkeeper Pan''s nephew regretted: "at that time, the light was dim. Where could the boy see clearly? Not only did he look vague, but the boy was also boiling with blood."


    Many diners were immediately excited, and their expectations for the parade were even higher.


    "According to the news, the grand parade was planned by the Mohist school. I think it will be no worse?" a local diner in Chang''an said confidently.


    "Yes, I regret that I missed the ink exhibition twice in a row. Fortunately, I didn''t miss the military parade this time," sighed a foreign diner.


    The first ink technology exhibition kept on what, while the second ink technology exhibition Merton showed an artificial rainbow in public and accurately predicted the solar eclipse. As soon as the news spread, many people shouted regret. How can such an exciting moment not make people regret for life.


    This big parade was planned by Merton himself. When the news came out, people could not help but increase their expectations.


    "It is said that most of these soldiers trained in Xishan camp. Only last night did they suddenly appear on Zhuque street."


    "I heard that there were foreign soldiers coming to Beijing during the military parade. When I came to Chang''an City, I also saw many foreign soldiers coming in a hurry."


    "A few days ago, many other delegations entered Chang''an!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone talked about what they had heard through the grapevine one by one. Everyone was in high spirits and showed a proud look on their faces. It can be said that a big military parade aroused everyone''s patriotic feeling of Datang.


    "Sell the newspaper! The latest special issue of Ink magazine has a complete military parade program list."


    With the sound of a newsboy''s Hawking, it completely detonated Chang''an city.


    "What is the military parade program list!" shopkeeper Pan said dumbfounded.


    "This is the time and place of the military parade and the situation of each team participating in the military parade!" a newspaper deliverer sent a pile of ink magazines in his hand to shopkeeper Pan''s hand and quickly went to the second house.


    Then the special issue of Confucian magazine was also sent. In order to expand the influence of the military parade, Merton really achieved fairness and justice. Mohist magazine and Confucian magazine received the same news! However, how to write depends on the level of their editors.


    Many people couldn''t wait to pick up the special issue and read it. Seeing the process of Ink magazine, especially when the military parade started from Jinyang, they couldn''t help shouting its subtlety. In particular, ink magazine proudly announced that this idea was put forward by Merton.


    At the moment, the superiority of Ink magazine and Confucian magazine was immediately distinguished. Ink magazine was even more vivid and spoke frankly about the origin of the military parade and the difference between this military parade and that of other dynasties. It was mixed with a lot of military knowledge and was very popular with the people.


    The Confucian journals only dry out the military parade program list. Other pages are dry and unattractive. In addition to the fixed customers of Confucian journals and ink journals in Chang''an City, most of the foreign people who poured into Chang''an city chose to buy ink journals.


    As a result, the sales volume of ink magazines in one day has directly reached 100000 copies, which is a record high, and it is also the reason why ink magazines are sold out in half a day, otherwise the sales volume will rise again.


    "Mojiazi didn''t keep it a secret all the time. How could he suddenly publish the program list directly?" shopkeeper pan looked at the newspaper in his hand and didn''t understand.


    "What about him? Anyway, I''ve enjoyed it!" the diner in the restaurant didn''t care at all.


    "Yes!" many people shouted.


    If Merton were here, he would not have let out a cold hum. All kinds of large-scale activities in future generations, especially the Spring Festival Gala, have been full of news before they have started. Even before it started, the complete program list had been circulated.


    Is it all a leak? I''m afraid most of them burst out by the program group itself!


    Just to continue to detonate the topic, so that more people have a sense of participation, so as to attract more attention.


    Although the parade did not worry about attention, Merton still achieved perfection, otherwise he would not be able to live up to the expectations of the people.


    "Shopkeeper pan, I''ll fix your table tomorrow!" a rich businessman dressed up as a middle-aged man shouted in his heart. His position can be said to be excellent, but he can see Zhuque street. It is very clear in the special issue that the whole parade enters from your south gate. Sitting there, you can see all the squadrons.


    "By the way, I''ll take the table next to me!" another diner also reacted. Instead of crowded with others to watch the military parade, he might as well sit in the restaurant and look down on the whole audience.


    And recently, too many people have poured into Chang''an city. Whether they can squeeze in or not, it''s better to ensure their position first!


    Shopkeeper Pan''s eyes flashed and said, "reservation is OK, but the price is not cheap!"


    The rich merchant took out a piece of silver without hesitation and said, "the price is easy to say. As long as you can see the parade, everything is worth it."


    Under the leadership of rich businessmen, all suitable locations in the restaurant were soon booked out. In fact, it was not only the pan restaurant, but all houses on the second floor near the Zhuque gate were robbed and booked out, and the price was very high.


    Rich people have a private room, while ordinary people step on it in advance, looking forward to finding a good place to watch the parade on Zhuque street. Everyone is looking forward to tomorrow.

 Chapter 635

    The first day of October!


    When the fish belly is white in the East and it''s just dawn, it means that the curfew is over.


    With the sound of a gong, the whole Chang''an city suddenly became a sensation. Countless people poured out from all corners in the dim light. Everyone had only one goal, that is Zhuque street.


    The parade is a long-awaited event. Naturally, no one wants to miss it!


    Of course, the rich who have set positions in the streets on both sides naturally don''t have to hurry, while many ordinary people are in order to seize some good positions. Naturally, they have to start first. If it weren''t for the curfew, these people would queue up all night.


    A crowd of people thought they got up early. When they arrived at Zhuque street, they found that there were teams of soldiers standing guard on Zhuque street. Soldiers and soldiers were stationed three steps and five steps, directly covering both sides of the whole Zhuque street.


    "This!"


    When the people were in doubt, they didn''t dare to come forward.


    "Those who need to see the parade, please come this way!" a soldier stretched out his hand and beckoned, guiding the people directly into both sides of Zhuque street.


    All the people looked at each other. They didn''t expect that soldiers would guide the parade. Immediately, they followed the soldiers to select positions on both sides of Zhuque street in an orderly manner.


    Almost all the intersections of the whole Zhuque street were guided by soldiers. The people entered the Zhuque street in an orderly manner. There was no chaos or competition. The scene was very harmonious.


    "Squat down in the front row! Stand in front of a low station and behind a high station in the shape of a ladder."


    When the crowd stood on both sides of the street, they were even more surprised to find that there was a soldier responsible for maintaining discipline at intervals, so that everyone could see the situation of rosefinch Avenue.


    This immediately changed people''s perception of the soldiers, and they couldn''t help but feel good about them. Since the imperial court launched the drought relief for soldiers, the image of the soldiers has changed greatly. This parade queue is also Merton''s plan to change the image of the soldiers.


    Ordinary people scrambled for the position as soon as possible, while the rich people came to the position they had set before, looked down from a high position, looked at the sea of people in the whole Zhuque street, and couldn''t help but secretly rejoice in their foresight.


    Under the expectation of all, time passed little by little. When the sun gradually rose, it was almost time.


    At the moment, in front of the Nancheng gate, a majestic team has appeared on the rosefinch street.


    "The parade is coming!"


    Many people waiting at Nancheng gate suddenly exclaimed, and the news spread from Nancheng gate to Zhuque gate at the fastest speed, and spread all over Zhuque street. Everyone knows that the parade is about to begin.


    On the rosefinch gate, Li Shimin, dressed in military uniform, stood in the wind. Looking up, he saw the orderly streets and the tall and straight figure of the military parade in the distance. He couldn''t help but feel proud.


    "Your Majesty, it''s time!" Linghu Dezhi, who was on the side, was satisfied. He had full confidence in the parade and could satisfy his majesty.


    Li Shimin nodded and couldn''t help looking at the direction of the ambassadors of all nations. The parade was more about deterring the western regions.


    "Your Majesty, don''t worry. The envoys of all nations have mo sacrificial wine to take charge of it personally. I believe we can successfully complete the task." Linghu de Yu said.


    Li Shimin was relieved and waved his hand, "the parade begins!"


    "Dong!"


    With the sound of the drum, everyone was shocked and understood that the long-awaited military parade was finally about to begin.


    Suddenly, everyone''s eyes focused on the south section of Zhuque street. During this period, all kinds of gossip flew all over the sky, and everyone had been itching for a long time.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, the first one to enter is the place of Longxing in Datang, the square of Jinyang veterans!"


    In front of a group of foreign missions, Merton proudly pointed to a square team coming in front.


    On the clean and tidy rosefinch street, a disabled soldier came proudly, headed by one armed Uncle Wang, holding only the flag of hundred battles. Many veterans behind him also had more or less the wounds left by the war. However, the whole team strode forward without compromising their temperament, and a solemn and stirring momentum came to their faces.


    "Jinyang veteran!"


    Beside Li Shimin, Li Yuan''s trembling figure suddenly stood up and looked at the square in front of him. He couldn''t help falling into a burst of memories. At the beginning, he led 30000 Jinyang soldiers to set up troops, killed all the way from Taiyuan to Chang''an, and finally calmed the world.


    It can be said that Li Tang won the world. I''m afraid this Jinyang veteran contributed the most. Unfortunately, during the continuous campaign, most of the Jinyang veterans at that time had been killed in the battlefield, few left and most of them were disabled.


    "Father, don''t be excited!" Li Shimin quickly comforted.


    In August this year, Li Yuan had a stroke. Although Sun Simiao saved his life, his body has been inconvenient to walk. Everyone knows that Li Yuan has died soon! If Merton''s plan had not included the link of Jinyang veterans, I''m afraid Li Yuan would not have come out at all.


    "Treat these veterans well!" Li Yuan pointed to the oncoming veterans and gasped for breath.


    "Father, don''t worry!" Li Shimin solemnly promised that many of these veterans also have his subordinates. They have followed him for many years and will not treat him badly.


    "An old horse has a great ambition! These veterans have fought all their lives and made great achievements..." on both sides of Zhuque street, one by one, along with the soldiers who maintained discipline, explained their achievements to the soldiers around them.


    "Wow!"


    There was an uproar in the crowd, and the eyes looking at these veterans again were a little more hot.


    How could one armed Uncle Wang, who was walking under the rosefinch gate, not feel this fanatical atmosphere? Suddenly, a kind of pride sprang up and suddenly said in a high voice: "if there is a war, call back!"


    "If there is war, call back!"


    "If there is war, call back!"


    "If there is war, call back!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Then a hundred veterans said in unison, and the voice spread all over the audience. This slogan immediately made everyone respect this disabled veteran.


    "Good! Good! This is the loyal and righteous man of Datang."


    Li Yuan''s excited face turned red.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t suppress his excitement. These veterans are still willing to serve the country. It''s really a blessing of the Tang Dynasty.


    The generals of the military couldn''t help praising Merton''s good play. As soon as this slogan came out, the military greatly raised its face.


    After the Veterans'' phalanx shouted three times, they turned left from the rosefinch gate and went west.


    Seeing the departure of these veterans, Merton was relieved. So far, the first show of the military parade was successful and made a good start.

 Chapter 636

    "Next, there is the second team - the women''s military team!..." Merton shouted.


    "Women''s army! There are women joining the army in the Tang Dynasty!"


    A group of envoys from other countries were confused and looked at Merton.


    Merton smiled and explained: "the women''s army is not all women! It is the army led by Princess Pingyang, a heroine of the Tang Dynasty. Although Princess Pingyang is a woman, she has made great achievements in war and made great contributions to the founding of the Tang Dynasty!"


    The woman is the general! Make your own army!


    Other messengers were surprised. This was unheard of in their country. Only Lu Dongzan''s eyes flashed. He was familiar with the state affairs of the Tang Dynasty and naturally knew the reputation of Princess Pingyang.


    Some messengers did not know the origin of the women''s army, but in the Tang Dynasty, the people were really familiar with this legendary army. The famous pass of the Great Wall, Niangziguan, was named because the women''s army she led was stationed here.


    In particular, Princess Pingyang died only six years after Wu de. she was the first princess with posthumous title in the Tang Dynasty. She was the only woman in Chinese history who was given a funeral by the army.


    Even though she has been dead for many years, her legendary experience is still enduring in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Most of these troops are the former headquarters of Princess Zhao of Pingyang. They once stationed at Niangziguan! They have followed Princess Pingyang to create miracles one after another...................."


    Among the crowd watching the ceremony, the soldiers responsible for explaining rendered the glory of the women''s army again and again. Even the illiterate people listened with interest and shouted one by one.


    "Pingyang!"


    On the rosefinch door! Li Yuan couldn''t help but feel a pain in his heart. He thought of his best daughter, who was full of talents. Unfortunately, she died young!


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t help sighing. Princess Pingyang and Li Shimin were the same mother in the same robe. Naturally, they had deep feelings. The emergence of the women''s army really made them feel very much. At that time, he ordered: "keep the order and keep the name of the women''s army!"


    "Yes!" condescended pound.


    "Women don''t make men more beautiful than children!"


    "Women don''t make men more beautiful than children!"


    "Women don''t make men more beautiful than children!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the chorus of the women''s army! The whole of the women''s army is set off by more attention.


    "Mother!"


    On the viewing platform on both sides of Zhuque Avenue, Chai Lingwu, the son of Princess Pingyang, saw the women''s army and looked at Merton with gratitude. After today, the prestige of their Chai family must be doubled by three points.


    "Aunt!"


    In an attic next to the rosefinch gate, a group of princesses are looking at the vigorous women''s army across the box. Among them, Princess Changle has bright eyes. Princess Pingyang is the first long Princess of the Tang Dynasty, while Changle is the second long princess. Inspired by the example of Princess Pingyang, Princess Changle immediately became heroic.


    A woman is more beautiful than a man. A woman can also do things that make men side. She is not only princess Changle, but also other princesses.


    Merton never thought that his slogan specially prepared for the women''s army had led to the development of feminism in the Tang Dynasty. After the military parade, many strong women in the Tang Dynasty put these two slogans on their lips. Taking Princess Pingyang and Princess Changle as examples, coupled with the trend of voluntary marriage, the status of women in the Tang Dynasty suddenly rose.


    "The third team is......"


    "Xuanjia iron horse!"


    Linghu Demin, who is responsible for explaining for Li Shimin, hasn''t finished yet. Li Shimin blurted out.


    Xuanjia iron cavalry is the most elite cavalry led by Li Shimin in the world! It is Li Shimin''s greatest pride! How could he not recognize it.


    All the black armor and iron cavalry are riding high headed horses, wearing special armor, fully armed and extremely powerful! Not to mention ordinary people, the tribal leader on the grassland couldn''t help taking a breath when he saw the Xuanjia iron cavalry.


    "Invincible, invincible!"


    Black armor and iron cavalry roared!


    In the whole world, I''m afraid only Xuanjia iron cavalry can bear this slogan. Since the establishment of Xuanjia iron cavalry, countless enemies have fallen under the iron hooves of Xuanjia iron cavalry and achieved great prestige.


    Li Shimin''s face turned red with excitement. When he saw the Xuanjia iron cavalry made by himself displayed in front of the people all over the world, he naturally felt proud.


    "Pa Pa Pa!"


    Led by the soldiers in the crowd, bursts of warm applause broke out and gave it to the most magnificent Xuanjia iron cavalry.


    "The fourth is......"


    "The fifth..."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With bursts of applause, many people talked about the wonderful examples of fighting in the four directions of the Tang Dynasty and calming the world one by one!


    "Next is the famous Weishui league team..."


    The Weishui alliance is the most familiar battle example in Chang''an city. As soon as this team came out, it immediately aroused the cheers of the whole audience. Li Shimin also looked proud. The Weishui alliance can be said to be his most proud masterpiece. After the Weishui alliance, Datang preserved its strength, which led to the glory of attacking Turks in the north.


    Seeing Li Shimin''s happy face, Linghu Deyu came forward and said in a loud voice, "the moon geese fly high, and Khan fled in the night. If you want to drive the light horse away, the snow is full of bows and knives. Next, the North attack East Turkic team is going to play."


    "Black geese flying high on the moon, Khan fled at night..." Li Shimin couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. Isn''t this the scene where Jieli Khan fled all night when he attacked the East Turks in the north, but was captured by the Tang army?


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but look at Linghu dehu with appreciation. He didn''t expect Linghu dehu to be so talented!


    Linghu de - Mao instantly replied with a red face: "of course, old men have such talent. This is the poetry of the ink offering wine."


    Li Shimin suddenly realized that no wonder such an expression appeared on his face.


    In front of many messengers, when Merton read the poem aloud, many messengers looked dignified and suddenly came under pressure. The real rise of the Tang Dynasty began with the defeat of the East Turks.


    The people under the field turned red with excitement. Good poetry combined with the scene of the military parade added a little excitement out of thin air! Many people who came to watch the ceremony were scholars. When they heard this poem, they danced excitedly and gave warm applause to the North East Turkic team.


    "The desert is lonely and smoke is straight, and the long river is falling yen! The last square team of the former army not only fought against 300000 cavalry under the sky dog eating the sun, but also went deep into the 800 mile vast sea, subdued the head and returned. He is our hero Tuyuhun square team in the western expedition."


    With the appearance of the last square team of the former army, Cheng Yaojin''s old face couldn''t help smiling. It was their left leader guard who could meet these two conditions at the same time, so the last square team was selected from their thousands of horses who stepped into the desert.


    "Defend the country!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the firm slogan of the left leading guard sounded, the major battles since the start of the Tang Dynasty were displayed one by one in the military parade. It can be said that it is a complete and complete glorious war history of the Tang Dynasty, and each team was a great victory.

 Chapter 637

    "Worth the trip!"


    After only one third of the parade, almost everyone couldn''t help feeling that before, many people spent a lot of money on the parade, planned for many days, and many people came thousands of miles away. I''m afraid only they know the hard work and pay.


    When they saw the wonderful parade, they immediately felt that all the previous efforts were worth it.


    Even Li Shimin was greatly surprised. The good effect of the military parade was out of his expectation. I''m afraid everything today is the most impressive day of his military career.


    "This is the army of hundred battles! The Heavenly Kingdom really deserves its reputation!" exclaimed an envoy of a small country.


    The number of people participating in the large-scale battles unheard of was more than that of all the people in some small countries in the western regions, and the fear of the Tang Dynasty immediately increased.


    Looking at the uncertain faces of many envoys, Lu Dongzan also had to praise Datang''s beautiful play. He was a soldier who subdued people without fighting. I believe Datang''s influence in the western regions will increase greatly in the future.


    "I''ve heard about the great talent of marquis Mo for a long time. I heard that the parade was made by Marquis Mo, and I didn''t disappoint Xiao Wang." Qu Zhisheng, Prince of Gaochang, said loudly.


    Gaochang is a powerful country in the western regions. Now the tentacles of the Tang Dynasty extend to the western regions, which is not a good thing for Gaochang! However, in the face of the power of Datang, Qu Zhisheng can only secretly express his dissatisfaction.


    "It''s Prince Gaochang, this is just the beginning, and the next one is more wonderful!" Merton said neither humbly nor haughtily.


    Qu Zhisheng laughed and said, "that little Wang will naturally wait and see!"


    Lu Dongzan flashed and looked at Qu Zhisheng in surprise. He noticed it secretly in his heart.


    However, such a brief battle was soon interrupted by another majestic team. Merton couldn''t help smiling and said: "please see, this is the central army of the grand parade, which shows the most advanced weapons of the Tang Dynasty, and the first square team is the sword shield army. All the weapons of this sword shield army are made of refined steel, with strong attack power and amazing defense......"


    "Made of fine steel!" the messengers couldn''t help but smack their tongue.


    In their country, even ironware is extremely rare. Most generals and soldiers wear leather armor. Only generals and warriors in the family have iron armor. However, even the weapons used by ordinary soldiers in the Tang Dynasty are made of refined steel, which is a big gap!


    "Tuyuhun''s defeat is not unjust!" Lu Dongzan lamented in his heart.


    In the face of the 200000 steel torrent in the Tang Dynasty, which country is not frightened, Tuyuhun can be said to have lost since the war.


    In fact, Merton did not deceive a group of envoys. Since the supervisor obtained the secret technology of steel making in Mojia village, the cost of making iron and steel is almost the same. The Ministry of military has long planned to replace all the weapons of the officers and men of the whole army with steel weapons.


    If Datang''s weapons are upgraded, Datang''s soldiers'' attack power will be higher. At that time, the overall strength of Datang''s military will be doubled.


    Then, bow and crossbow soldiers, long spearmen and cavalry came on stage one after another. The atmosphere of the whole audience was higher and higher. When the siege car was pushed forward, the whole audience immediately shouted.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He denied the siege car of general Fang before. He didn''t expect that these guys didn''t give up, but modified the size and length of the siege car, reduced the model of the siege car, put it flat, pushed the rosefinch street with several eight wheeled carriages, and then set it up again.


    Although it takes time and effort, I have to say that the effect is indeed amazing.


    "This is the siege car!"


    Qu Zhisheng stared at the huge siege car in front. On the high roof, ten heavily armed soldiers were ready. This height was much higher than the wall of Gaochang King City.


    It can be imagined that if one day, if the Tang army fought with Gaochang, I''m afraid it won''t last long with the walls of Gaochang.


    Qu Zhisheng changed his face and said, "I heard that mohou and Gaochang have many industries. Maybe Xiao Wang can help."


    Seeing this, Merton couldn''t help smiling and said, "thank you, Prince. Gao Changguo produces grape wine. Mo has also been known for a long time. For example, Datang is rich in land and resources. If Datang and Gaochang are friendly, countless people will benefit our two countries!"


    They immediately talked happily, with a look of sympathy.


    Lu Dongzan couldn''t help humming. He thought how tough Gaochang was. Unexpectedly, he counseled! However, it is not just Gaochang''s advice. Except for a few countries such as Tubo, Western Turks and Koguryo, almost all envoys can no longer feel hostile to the Tang Dynasty. It can even be said that many small countries can''t afford to hold such a grand event.


    With the advent of heavy weapons, the people cheered in bursts. The civil and military forces of the man Dynasty looked arrogant, while the envoys looked embarrassed. There is no doubt that Datang is well deserved invincible in terms of military strength.


    When the last weapon was pulled onto the stage, cheers began from the south gate, reaching the climax, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Is this?" Qu Zhisheng saw that the last weapon was just a carriage, and he couldn''t see anything powerful at all.


    Merton could not help revealing a trace of pride and said, "this is the most powerful weapon of Tang Dynasty, gunpowder!"


    Gunpowder!


    As soon as Merton said this, the whole audience was silent, and all the messengers took a breath.


    After the battle of Tuyuhun, Datang''s gunpowder weapons were brilliant. Many countries have heard of it for a long time. After envoys from various countries came to Chang''an City, they didn''t know how many spies were sent to inquire about gunpowder. They even risked their lives and sacrificed a lot of people. In the end, they got nothing. Now Datang has directly and openly displayed gunpowder weapons.


    "This is the gunpowder for the battle of Tuyuhun''s three fortresses!" Qu Zhisheng exclaimed.


    Suddenly all the messengers looked sideways. Even Lu Dongzan narrowed his eyes and looked deeply at the humble carriage in front of him.


    "Yes!" Murton nodded heavily.


    Qu Zhisheng breathed quickly and blurted out, "I don''t know what price we pay in Gaochang country. Tian Khan is willing to give us such weapons."


    When Qu Zhisheng finished, all the messengers were silent and looked at Merton one after another.


    "I''m afraid Gao Chang can''t afford to pay such a price!" Merton said fiercely in his eyes.


    In his prime, Qu Zhi said, "although Mo Hou makes an offer, Xiao Wang will never return."


    "Destroy the country!" Merton said word by word.


    Qu Zhisheng immediately stared at Merton with bad eyes. Other messengers also stared at Merton with unfriendly eyes. At this moment, all messengers United.


    Morton was not afraid at all. He smiled and said, "gunpowder is the most powerful weapon of Datang. How can he tolerate stealing from other countries? If Datang finds that the secret skill of gunpowder has been stolen, there is only one way to ensure Datang''s interests, that is to destroy the country!"


    Suddenly all the messengers were silent. They knew that what Merton said was not a threat, but the truth. If they stood in the position of Datang, I''m afraid they would choose to do the same.


    Merton saw everyone''s expression and said positively, "besides, even if someone gets lucky to get the secret recipe of gunpowder, I''m afraid the raw materials and other countries can''t get together, not to mention that it still needs heavy refining, and it''s almost impossible to make gunpowder."


    Suddenly, all the messengers looked gloomy, but they put down a big stone in their heart. Even if they got the secret skill of gunpowder, they couldn''t make it. There was also the risk of destroying the country. All the messengers immediately put out a lot of thoughts.


    Merton also breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that this could not dispel everyone''s covetous desire for gunpowder, it was enough to make more envoys dare not act rashly. He was responsible for gunpowder development. He didn''t want to be watched by wave after wave of foreign spies.


    Naturally, what happened in this place cannot be concealed from Li Shimin. When Li Shimin heard what happened, he couldn''t help nodding heavily.


    If that small country dares not to know the truth and dare to use gunpowder, he will destroy it at all costs.


    After the carriage loaded with gunpowder turned west at the rosefinch gate, the Chinese Army officially ended.


    "Next, the rear army team is going to play. The first team is the mainstay of Datang, the 16th guard team!

 Chapter 638

    Left and right guards, left and right Jinwu guards, left and right Xiaowei guards, left and right Wuwei guards, left and right leading guards, left and right Qianniu guards, left and right guard guards! This is the 16 guards of the Tang Dynasty. This time Merton is impartial. All the 16 guards have square teams to show, which can be regarded as a face for all the 16 guards.


    The right back team and Qin Huaiyu walked proudly in the front row. Behind them, 1600 soldiers and ten teams were all fully armed with extraordinary momentum.


    "The sixteen guards, with a total of 200000 people, are the most elite troops in the Tang Dynasty!......" Merton proudly showed off to the messengers.


    All the messengers were silent. Their country or tribe didn''t even have 200000 people. How to resist this powerful army.


    "In addition, besides the sixteen guards, there are local garrisons at all borders of Datang. The total strength of Datang is 600000! All warriors in strong armor, and the next team is Jiannan road team!" Merton continued to show Datang''s strength to a group of messengers.


    "600000 Armored Warriors!"


    All the messengers were shocked at once. Even when the Jiannan Taoist team came near, they were no longer in the mood to watch. They were absent-minded one by one.


    However, Li Shimin was interested in watching it. Naturally, he can firmly control the 16th guard, while he can''t reach the local defenders, and the strength of control will inevitably decline. The military parade gave him the opportunity to firmly control these local defenders.


    "In the future, it will be a permanent practice to invite local defenders for military parade!" Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Linghu Deyu was immediately overjoyed. Li Shimin had said that he would have a military parade in the future. Obviously, he was very satisfied with this military parade. He couldn''t help being grateful to Merton who planned all this. Then he had an idea and said, "the next team will certainly not disappoint your majesty!"


    "Yumen pass team!" Li Shimin blurted out. Obviously, he also saw the program list of the military parade.


    Linghu de nodded heavily and said, "the Yellow River is far away from the white clouds. There is a lonely city and ten thousand mountains. Why should the Qiang flute complain about the willows? The spring breeze does not pass the Yumen pass. The seven character quatrain of mohou makes the Yumen pass known all over the world and become a powerful pass in one fell swoop!"


    "This is the border officers and men in the west of Datang. The conditions are the most difficult, but they shoulder the most arduous task of Datang. The reason why Datang can have such a stable life is that there are countless unknown heroes like Yumen pass officers and men!........................." on both sides of Zhuque street, the generals in charge of interpretation look at the wind and frost team with sigh! Tell the people the hardships of Yumen pass with both voice and emotion.


    With the praise of Merton''s poems, people are no strangers to Yumen pass. Countless people have returned their warmest applause and paid high tribute to it.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved by it and shouted, "this is my good man in Datang!"


    The most elite troops in the Tang Dynasty were the sixteen guards, but they were able to stabilize the world. These border guards in the most remote border areas contributed a lot. Yumen pass can be said to be the most typical representative.


    Yumen pass Squadron, in the south, North and east of Datang, each army has one army to participate. Even Qixin Heli, an old friend of Merton''s western expedition, also sent a Turkic cavalry squadron to participate!


    Li Shimin looked at Qixin Heli''s cavalry team and couldn''t help smiling. Since these Turkic cavalry participated in the parade, they naturally admitted that they were part of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, the control of the northern grassland of the Tang Dynasty naturally increased by several%.


    With the passing of square teams, everyone realized that the parade had gradually come to an end.


    When the last team strode past, everywhere they went, the whole audience was silent and looked at the unique team in front of them one by one.


    "What''s going on?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Linghu de said in a low voice, "the last team is the firearm supervision team of mohou."


    Li Shimin suddenly looked at Merton not far away and sighed. Sure enough, the attributes of Merton''s catfish reappeared and didn''t forget to toss everywhere!


    Li Shimin was extremely satisfied with the parade. If the boy dared to leave a stain, he would not be spared. Li Shimin secretly hated him.


    However, when the firearm supervision team came near, the civil and military forces in the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar. Even Li Shimin suddenly got up and stared at the team in front of him.


    Although there were only 50 members in the firearm supervision team, they were arranged neatly, with their heads held high and their bodies tall and straight, and the distance between each officer and soldier was not disorderly.


    Between walking, the arms thrown out and the steps taken out are neat as one.


    "Step! Step! Step!"


    Everyone was shocked to see the scene in front of them. They never knew that the cooperation between the groups had such a tacit understanding and was full of beauty.


    not bad It''s beauty.


    The previous team was shocking, magnificent and frightening. However, this team takes into account the advantages of all teams and has a more harmonious beauty than other teams.


    "Is this still what we often call a big head soldier?" in the crowd, a man murmured to himself, telling everyone''s voice. In the hearts of the people, the soldier was rough and rude, and in the hearts of the people, he didn''t have much favor for the soldier.


    However, the team in front of them broke all their prejudices against soldiers. Seeing such a disciplined and upward team, everyone''s first feeling was envy. Many scholars had the impulse to join the army.


    "Recruit plan!" Li Shimin blurted out.


    Li Jing nodded and said, "yes, this is the recruit based on the gun prison!"


    "How long does it take Merton to train this team!" Fang Xuanling asked.


    Li Jing solemnly said, "a whole month!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly burst into brilliance and stared at the square team in front of him. If Merton could practice it in a month, wouldn''t all the soldiers in the world be able to practice it? If the 600000 soldiers in the Tang Dynasty were like the square team in front of him, what a shocking scene it would be.


    A group of civil servants also looked at the following team with shock. They understood in their hearts that once Merton''s military training method was popularized, the image of soldiers would certainly change dramatically from now on. I''m afraid the idea of making military with literature will be difficult to realize.


    Xue Rengui could almost hear his heartbeat every step he took! When he led the firearm supervision team to the rosefinch door, he suddenly shouted, "relax! Stand at attention!"


    With Xue Rengui''s order, the whole firearm supervision team was like an arm and finger. Walking, turning and the whole team were always neat. Unexpectedly, the drill was carried out under the rosefinch door!


    After a month of hard training, these actions have long been branded in the heart of firearm supervisors. All steps are the same. Even those who are picky have to bow their hands and admire.


    "This is the real soldier!" countless people suddenly sighed.


    "This is the soldier I want!"


    Almost all the generals were so excited that they didn''t blink for fear of missing these actions. Before, they just watched them in the middle of the night. How could they think that the firearms supervisor drill would have such magic in full view of the public.


    "My brother-in-law is so powerful!" Princess Jinyang looked at the shocking drill in front of her and danced excitedly.


    Other princesses also have colorful eyes. Princess Changle has a proud face. Princess Gaoyang lowers her head to cover up the gloom on her face.


    "When I grow up, I will become such a soldier!" Li Zhi said firmly with envy on his face, but he didn''t know how much he had suffered because of this sentence today.


    "Assemble!" with Xue Rengui''s order, all the firearms supervision teams were arranged neatly.


    "Turn left and run!" Xue Rengui shouted.


    "One, two, one, two, one!" with neat slogans, the firearm officers and men ran out of the field neatly.


    One, two, one! I''m afraid it''s the simplest slogan in the whole parade, and I''m afraid it''s also the most impressive slogan!


    It was not until the officers and soldiers of the firearm supervisor disappeared that the whole pace of the firearm supervisor disappeared. The people woke up like a dream and clapped wildly and gave it to this unique team.


    However, people of insight understand that although there are only 50 people in the firearms supervision team, it is an epoch-making change for the Tang military.

 Chapter 639

    After the firearm supervision team passed, the whole rosefinch Street began to grow up! But everyone is full of pride!


    It can be said that the parade started from Jinyang veterans, representing veterans who have devoted their lives to the Tang Dynasty, and ended from the firearms supervision team, representing the future of the Tang Dynasty. Connecting the past and the future, the implication is far-reaching. It not only inherits, but also shows the style of the Tang military. Merton''s talent has attracted the attention of the world again.


    "Sure enough, I was not disappointed!"


    Standing on the rosefinch gate, Li Shimin looked at the team gradually disappearing from the West. The rosefinch street in front of him was full of people, and he was suddenly full of pride. He was not only satisfied with the military parade, but could not be satisfied any more.


    "Soldiers of the future!"


    Many military generals are full of passion. Everyone knows that the recruit plan represented by the firearms supervision team will be the future direction of the Tang military. After seeing the firearms supervision team, they are ashamed to look at the elite soldiers they are proud of.


    "It''s over so soon!"


    Now it''s almost noon, and it''s almost an hour. However, everyone has a feeling that there is still more to be said.


    "Your Majesty, it''s time to go back to the palace!" pound reminded.


    Li Shimin nodded and was about to turn around, but he suddenly looked at Zhuque street.


    "This!"


    All the officials in the hall also stretched their necks one by one. Looking at the bottom of the rosefinch street with a frightened face, they saw that the soldiers and men who were originally responsible for maintaining the order of the grand parade had released their control.


    A large number of people poured into the rosefinch street and came towards the rosefinch door.


    "Your majesty!"


    All officials were immediately frightened and couldn''t help approaching Li Shimin. As court officials, they have always pursued the policy of fooling the people and making the people obedient. The last thing they want to see is such group events.


    "Your Majesty, please retreat for a while!" said changsun Wuji with a nervous face.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "it doesn''t matter. Today is the day of the military parade. How can the people do anything harmful to the country."


    He keenly found that the people did not rush up to Zhuque street, but entered Zhuque street in an orderly way, which did not form chaos. At the forefront were a group of doctors'' children, Mohists'' children and students of the National Academy of Sciences, who walked together in harmony. Behind them, countless people followed and came to the Zhuque gate together.


    When he came to the rosefinch door, the head of Mo Wu in white suddenly shouted, "everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!"


    "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!"


    Suddenly, countless people followed and shouted at the same time! The sound soon spread all over rosefinch street. The hearts of countless people trembled and became excited. They thought the parade was a grand event of the military, but they didn''t expect to participate in it.


    The root of all the people in the world is not the people in the world, and the rise and fall of the world is closely related to every people!


    All the people came under the rosefinch door and looked enthusiastically at the rosefinch door, the most central position. They shouted that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. They believe that there are also a pair of eyes looking at them on the rosefinch door.


    At the moment, on the rosefinch door, when the first slogan was shouted, all civil and military officials consciously withdrew! Leave space for Li Shimin.


    Wei Zheng listened to the mountain like cry under the rosefinch door. He couldn''t help feeling like a bosom friend. In his heart, he always had the idea that the king is like a boat, the people are like water, and water can carry a boat and overturn a boat. Now he heard the slogan that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, which just coincided with what he thought.


    "Linghu is so talented!" Wei Zheng said with heartfelt admiration.


    Other ministers also looked at Linghu dehu, the Minister of rites, with surprised eyes. Linghu dehu couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "this is what Mozi said. I don''t dare to take credit."


    Wei Zheng suddenly realized that this slogan was really in line with the idea of Mohism representing the common people all over the world.


    In front of the ambassadors of all nations, Merton said proudly, "if the world is in crisis in the Tang Dynasty, the whole people can also fight against foreign enemies."


    Many messengers immediately lamented that they are adjacent to such a big Tang Dynasty with endless armor, huge wealth and such a large population. They don''t know whether they feel honored or sad. "


    "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!"


    Li Shimin tasted this sentence carefully, and he couldn''t help feeling it,


    Under the rosefinch gate, thousands of people gather, including farmers, businessmen, craftsmen, students, doctors and all walks of life! Farmers cultivate land, contribute food and taxes, and craftsmen work to make people do everything twice with half effort! It is the painstaking operation of ordinary people that makes the Tang Dynasty prosperous.


    Even the invincible army of the Tang Dynasty is not the children of all the people.


    After the people shouted three times, under the command of the soldiers, they turned and left to the East, but the people came in a steady stream. Every time they came under the rosefinch door, they shouted one after another!


    Seeing the excited people, even at noon, Li Shimin still refused to leave. He didn''t expect that Merton surprised him at the end of the day.


    "Bring Merton to me!" Li Shimin said in his heart when he saw Merton not far away.


    Pound took orders and immediately came to Merton. After a while, Merton came in a hurry.


    "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world! Where does this come from?" Li Shimin asked leisurely.


    Merton bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this comes from Zuo Zhuan and lienvzhuan. The boy thinks that those who protect the country, their kings and ministers, and those who eat meat, plan it; those who protect the world, how can everyone be cheap and responsible?"


    Li Shimin was also a learned man. He soon found the source in Zuo Zhuan and Lienv Zhuan. He couldn''t help but deepen his understanding of this sentence.


    "According to your meaning, isn''t it the rise and fall of the imperial court, everyone is innocent, and everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!" Li Shimin looked at Merton meaningfully.


    "It''s brave of Mo to offer wine!" the eldest sun Wuji shouted. According to Merton''s meaning, he even divided the Tang Dynasty from the whole world, and only regarded the Tang Dynasty as one of them.


    Merton retorted without hesitation: "if you are in a high position, can you blame the people all over the world?"


    The eldest sun Wuji suddenly concluded.


    "However, now the imperial court and the world are one. If the prosperous Tang Dynasty lasts forever, everyone in the world has the obligation and responsibility to be loyal to the country." Merton said.


    Merton didn''t say half of what he said, but everyone in the Manchu Dynasty understood that if the Tang Dynasty declined, it would naturally be the dereliction of duty of the imperial court and all officials.


    "That''s natural!" Li Shimin said without hesitation.


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Merton sighed with relief and bowed.


    Li Shimin looked at the already empty Zhuque street, looked at the direction of the ambassadors of all nations and said, "now the military parade has ended. The next thing depends on you."


    "I understand!"


    Merton and Linghu Deyu bowed at the same time.


    The silk road is very important to Datang and there is absolutely no need to lose. The next diplomatic affairs will determine the future policy direction of the whole Datang.

 Chapter 640

    In Honglu temple, all the envoys no longer wanted to visit Chang''an City before they came. They returned to their homes one by one and refused guests behind closed doors. What happened today was beyond all their expectations for Datang. They wanted to report everything that happened today to their king, and their attention to Datang went up several steps one after another.


    In the Tibetan post house, Lu Dongzan recalled what happened today and couldn''t help sweating. If today''s Tubo is against the Tang Dynasty, it must be defeated. Now it seems that it''s best to avoid the edge


    "Fortunately, Tubo has the natural danger of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau!" Lu Dongzan said happily. As long as Tubo doesn''t take the initiative, if Datang wants to defeat Tubo, it must pay a heavy price. Of course, Tubo''s strategy towards Datang should be greatly adjusted, and it can''t easily touch Datang''s tiger beard.


    However, it is impossible for him to retreat like this and be respectful to Datang. His Tubo occupies the Qinghai Tibet Plateau and is invincible. I''m afraid other countries are not so lucky. I''m afraid some people should be very scared now!


    "Come here, look for the opportunity to pass this secret letter to Gaochang, Xue yantuo, Koguryo and West Turk." Lu Dongzan reached out and summoned a secret envoy to seal the four secret letters and solemnly handed them to him.


    "Yes!" said the secret envoy.


    These four most powerful forces around the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid only Tubo and their alliance can have the capital to compete with the Tang Dynasty.


    Soon, the four messengers received a secret letter from Tubo!


    "It''s great for the five nations to unite against the Tang Dynasty!" Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help looking at the secret letter in his hand.


    "Prince, among the five countries, Gaochang is the weakest. We must not act rashly!" Deputy envoy Gaochang couldn''t help admonishing.


    Qu Zhisheng said carelessly, "it is because Gaochang is the weakest that I need allies and have a foothold in the face of Datang."


    "At this time, you need to report to your majesty to decide." Deputy envoy Gao Chang advised.


    Qu Zhisheng laughed and said, "we just need to respond to the current situation to calm the hearts of the people. As for whether Gaochang will abide by it in the future, it is naturally up to our father and Emperor."


    "The prince is wise!" Deputy envoy Gao Chang said respectfully.


    The other three messengers and Qu zhishanda all had the same idea. They agreed secretly that once the Tang Dynasty sent troops to any country, other countries would send troops to contain it.


    Lu Dongzan got a reply from everyone and couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction. It''s not difficult for him to guess what people think, but he doesn''t care. Tubo has a unique terrain. If you say that among the five countries, it must be not Tubo in the end. No matter what outcome, it''s only good or bad for Tubo.


    "Ink offering wine, isn''t this military parade too much? If all the countries unite to be hostile to the Tang Dynasty at the same time, wouldn''t it be adding feet to the snake!" Linghu Deyu frowned when he received a message from Honglu temple.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the alliance of nations is cooperation, and the Tang Dynasty can also be horizontal! To resist cooperation! And our Tang Dynasty is now at the height of the sun. Even without today''s military parade, these countries will not unite?"


    "Unite vertically and horizontally, attack from afar and close!" Linghu Deyu said in his heart.


    Merton nodded and said, "I just don''t know whether the vertical and horizontal people trained by the Ministry of rites have left the school. This time, the envoys of all countries will go back, but I Datang will be accompanied by envoys."


    Linghu Deyu said confidently, "I promise I won''t let Mo sacrifice disappointed."


    "Sir, Minister Dai of the Ministry of civil affairs is coming!" an official of the Ministry of rites hurried to report.


    "Come on, please!" Linghu dehu quickly got up and said. Dai Zhou was in the same position as him. He visited in person. Naturally, he had important matters to discuss.


    "The boy left first!" Merton was ready to leave.


    "No, I''m looking for you, boy!" Dai Zhou came in angrily.


    "I don''t know where the boy offended Dai Shangshu again!" Merton smiled.


    Morton and Dai Zhou are also old acquaintances. When the Ministry of the people was short of money, Dai Zhou personally took officials of the Ministry of the people to the Mexican government to collect taxes. Naturally, he didn''t have much awe.


    "Offend me! Hum! You two have a look at the cost of the parade!" Dai Zhou slammed his account book in front of them.


    "So much?" Linghu opened it and exclaimed. He only knew how to spend money, but he never calculated how much it cost.


    Merton immediately shrunk. He spent most of the money. Naturally, he knew the approximate figure, which was not a small amount.


    "I said to Lord Linghu, who can you ask for help, but you have to find such a black sheep! How much money is not enough!" Dai Zhou said angrily.


    Linghu Deyu said, "Lord Dai, it''s all for the sake of the imperial court. It costs more, but it''s done very satisfactorily. Why don''t you approve it!"


    Although it cost a lot, the parade was really a success. In Linghu''s opinion, it was cost-effective.


    "Yes! Although I spent some money, Datang benefited a lot from it. Generally speaking, it''s still cost-effective," Merton said dryly.


    Dai Zhou looked at Merton coldly. Merton immediately closed his mouth. After Dai Zhou calmed down his anger, he said, "it''s not impossible for me to approve, but..."


    Linghu Deyu was immediately overjoyed and said, "Lord Dai, if you have conditions, just mention it. As long as the etiquette department can do it, just give orders."


    Dai Zhou''s face slowed slightly and said, "the Ministry of the people has a batch of silk produced by the weaving Bureau. The Ministry of rites does not have many envoys from all countries. As long as the Ministry of rites can sell this batch of silk, today''s business will be written off."


    "A batch of silk, how many?" Merton hurried.


    The armor lightly exposed an astronomical figure, and Merton and Linghu de suddenly blacked out.


    "So much?" Murton exclaimed.


    "It''s not your boy''s fault. Cotton is about to be popularized. The imperial court still has a large number of silk. If it is thrown into the market, I''m afraid the silk on the market will collapse soon! For today''s sake, there is only one way to sell it to the countries in the western regions." Dai Zhou explained.


    Before that, silk could also be used as money, so it was the imperial court that owned the most silk.


    "No, how can we sell so many silks!" Ling Hu De Fu shook his head and said, the whole Tang Dynasty can''t digest, and how much can the western countries buy.


    "There''s nothing I can do about these books!" Dai Zhou said helplessly.


    Merton suddenly had a headache. Dai Zhou''s meaning was obvious. Now the imperial court can only have money if it sells silk. If it doesn''t have money, it''s nothing to talk about.


    "Ink offering wine, you have a good plan!" Linghu Deyu immediately asked Merton for help. You know, Merton has sold countless cattle and sheep. The only chance to sell this batch of silk is Merton.


    "Can you lower the price!" Merton asked tentatively. If the price drops a little, we can still sell some silk.


    Dai Zhou sneered: "the value of this batch of silk has been approved by the three provinces and reported to the imperial court. If there is less money in the future, I''m afraid you and I will have to go to the third division."


    If the price can be reduced, Dai Zhou will not force Merton. If the price is reduced, the price of this batch of silk has evaporated by several percent out of thin air, which is simply the loss of state-owned assets.


    "You said the silk was woven by the weaving Bureau of the imperial court." Merton asked.


    "Good!" Dai Zhou nodded.


    "Is there no similar silk on the market?" Merton asked again.


    Dai Zhou naturally said, "it''s natural, and the weaving Bureau''s technology is not only superb, but also has a unique mark, which can''t be imitated by ordinary workshops."


    Merton nodded slowly, closed his eyes and said thoughtfully, "if so, the boy may have a way to sell this batch of silk."


    "Seriously?" Linghu Deyu said in surprise.


    Dai Zhou narrowed his eyes and said, "no price reduction!"


    "No price reduction!"


    "All?" Dai Zhou asked after her breath.


    "All, even more!" Merton nodded heavily. In his heart, a huge plan around silk took shape rapidly.

 Chapter 641

    In the Ministry of rites, the undercurrent surged, and in Chang''an City, the wind and cloud surged.


    Although the parade ended, its influence continued to ferment. After the people''s parade ended, countless people gathered together to talk about the grand occasion of the parade. They still remember the passionate figure of the majestic soldiers!


    "Watching this parade, I have no regrets in my life!" sighed countless people.


    Many scholars, full of passion, wanted to write a poem, but found it difficult to describe the grand occasion even if they were rich and poor; It is difficult for famous painters to draw a corner of it.


    Among the people''s word of mouth, all kinds of wonderful links of the parade were presented to the world one by one. Some people who failed to watch the parade all regretted and regretted that they missed the grand event. I''m afraid it was the greatest regret in their life.


    "At that time, we passed by the rosefinch gate, shouting that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world! Your Majesty was at the rosefinch gate and watched us with his own eyes." countless people participating in the parade showed off to others with relish.


    "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Although we have a cloth, we should also contribute to the world!"


    The people are proud to say that in this way, they can live up to their slogans and promises under the rosefinch door.


    "No, if we also go to the Red Cross to donate money! Do our part for the rise and fall of the world!" a man in Tsing Yi suggested.


    Immediately, there are countless responders, and the personal strength of ordinary people is naturally weak. However, if personal money is accumulated bit by bit and the Red Cross is used to benefit the country and the people, I believe I can certainly make my own contribution.


    Moreover, the Red Cross Society is presided over by Princess Changle and empress changsun, and its reputation can naturally be guaranteed. In addition, in several disasters of the Tang Dynasty, the Red Cross Society has contributed a lot and played an important role. Moreover, it has regularly disclosed its financial affairs every month, which naturally won the trust of everyone.


    For a while, there were countless people who went to the Red Cross to donate money. Those who had money and things. Many people signed up as volunteers of the Red Cross and contributed as much as possible.


    Only that afternoon, the Red Cross Society in Chang''an City alone received more than 10000 donations! This is a wonderful figure. I believe that with the continuous radiation of the influence of the parade, the donations of the people of Datang to the Red Cross will reach a higher record.


    "Thanks to you this time!" Princess Changle said happily in the fish champion building. When she learned the number of donations and the number of new volunteers, she couldn''t help looking at Merton gratefully. If Merton hadn''t made the parade so successful, the Red Cross would not have ushered in an explosive growth.


    "My brother-in-law is so powerful!" Princess Jinyang said excitedly.


    "Where! Changle did a good job in running the Red Cross Society and won the trust of the people!" Merton said modestly. Since Li Shimin''s marriage, Merton and Princess Changle can finally walk in Chang''an city.


    After the parade, they rarely have free time. Merton naturally won''t miss this God given opportunity to think of a private gathering between them.


    Things went well. Princess Changle successfully left the palace, but she was accompanied by Princess Jinyang. They had a good date. It was a terrible sight to have an oil bottle.


    Princess Changle said proudly, "that''s nature. Last time in Shandong flood, I donated countless money and materials to the Red Cross Society, which has an excellent reputation among the people."


    Merton warned: "however, to make financial disclosure, every donation must have the final destination. Otherwise, if there is a problem, not only an organization that benefits the country and the people will be damaged, but also the Royal reputation will be affected."


    He knew that the Red Cross Society of later generations was so opaque that it had many problems and lost its credibility that it had been nearly ten years since Merton was reborn.


    "What Mo said in offering wine!" before Princess Changle answered, with a familiar voice, Li Chengqian pushed the door in and followed Li Zhi and Li Tai behind him.


    "The Red Cross Society has many advantages, but it is also a double-edged sword. Although it can benefit the royal family, a bad one can also damage the Royal reputation," Li Chengqian said.


    Princess Changle nodded and said, "don''t worry, elder brother. Changle will keep a good pass and won''t do anything that will damage the Royal reputation."


    Princess Changle is determined to emulate Princess Pingyang. Naturally, she will not easily give up the Red Cross, an organization that benefits the country and the people.


    Merton asked the three to take their seats. He was helpless. He originally wanted to have a secret meeting with Princess Changle, but it turned into an open party. Princess Jinyang stuck to Changle. Li Chengqian and Li Tai consciously separated Merton, making it difficult for Merton and Changle to say a word.


    Li Chengqian was cold in his heart. The last time Merton went to the palace and stayed alone with Changle for a long time, he had long been dissatisfied. In addition, the last time Merton called him brother-in-law''s revenge, how could he easily let Merton go.


    "Come on! Serve!" Merton had no choice but to greet the people.


    At the moment, the weather has gradually turned cold, and hot pot is popular in Chang''an city again. With plates of fresh beef and vegetables served, people can''t help but move their fingers.


    "Come on, try this spinach!" Merton picked up a spinach and put it into the steaming pot.


    After a year of breeding, although the quantity of spinach is still small, it is no longer as urgent as last year, otherwise this large dish of green vegetables will surely kill Su Lingnong.


    "Brother in law, I want beef!" Li Zhi said.


    Changle pinched Li Zhi''s fat face and said, "eat again like your brother Qingque."


    Li Tai immediately smiled bitterly. There were still some taboos about his figure, but for Changle, he often made fun of him!


    Merton advised: "it''s nothing to eat beef. As long as you exercise frequently, you will be better. The strong health of herdsmen on the grassland has a great relationship with their eating more meat!"


    "Yes!" Li Zhi retorted with a raised face.


    Princess Changle said helplessly, "you can eat, but you can''t eat more!"


    "Thank you, sister Changle!" Li Zhi said sweetly.


    Plates of beef and mutton were put into the pot and everyone ate them. Since Tuyuhun in the western expedition, a large number of cattle and sheep have suddenly increased in Datang. The ban on cattle slaughter in Datang has almost existed in name only. Beef is no longer a strange thing in Chang''an city.


    "It''s said that brother Mo has witnessed the vicissitudes of life in Qinghai. I''m writing the local chronicles under the order of my father. I don''t know if I can give up some!" Li Tai suddenly came over and said.


    "Vicissitudes of the sea?" Li Chengqian also put down his chopsticks with great interest.


    Merton looked at Li Tai and Li Chengqian and asked them to take their seats! At this time, empress Chang sun was still alive. The competition between the two was not obvious. They were close brothers and had a good relationship. There was no sign of the dragon and tiger struggle in history.


    Merton explained, "it''s just some shells. If King Wei likes it, just pick it up!"


    Merton naturally knew that what Li Tai was talking about was the paleontological shells he collected from the shell beam when he returned from the western expedition. There are many places in Qinghai. Naturally, it is not so precious!


    "So, in the vast desert, there was a vast ocean a few years ago!" Li Zhi was shocked when he learned.


    Li Tai on one side also flashed. If he opened his mouth to ask for the shells, I''m afraid Murong Shun would send them. One of the reasons he asked Merton personally was that he wanted to ask Merton about it.


    Merton nodded naturally and said, "of course, otherwise, how did those shells come from?"


    Everyone smacked their tongue. No one thought that the sea had turned into today''s desert. They have always heard of the vicissitudes of the sea, but they never thought they could prove it in person.


    "Brother Mo, can you tell me the truth in detail!" asked Li Tai. If he could understand the truth of the vicissitudes of life, his "including local chronicles" would have qualitative changes. Once it is completed, the natural value will be doubled.


    Merton nodded, pointed to the hot pot basin in front of him and said, "suppose this hot pot basin is the shell beam several years ago, and the vegetables and meat in it are water, grass and fish in the water. If we don''t add water to it, I believe these hot pot basins will be burned dry soon."


    Li Tai''s mind flashed, but he couldn''t catch it. He couldn''t help scratching his ears and cheeks.


    "Without water, a large number of fish and shells died, and some low-lying places became salt lakes. I don''t believe you can taste it. Is today''s hot pot soup particularly salty!" Merton pointed to the bottom of the pot with only a little soup left.


    Li Tai picked up his chopsticks and tasted a green vegetable. His mouth was dry with salt, but his heart suddenly became bright. He was shocked and said: "you mean that the desert of the whole Qinghai is the lake and sea, and the desert was also the lake and sea, and now the salt lake is the only trace of the lake and sea."


    Merton looked at Li Tai with appreciation and nodded: "good!"


    "But where has so much water gone?" asked Princess Jinyang.


    Merton didn''t answer. Instead, he asked, "where is the water in our washed clothes? Where is the full water in our hot pot?"


    "You mean the white smoke from the boiling water is water?" Li Tai came to an incredible conclusion, which he couldn''t believe himself.


    Li Chengqian and others immediately looked at each other. The water could be smoke.


    "This is the evaporation studied by Mohists. Water has three forms: solid, liquid and gas. An ice block will slowly melt into water when the weather gets warmer, and turn into steam when it boils with heat," Merton explained.


    Merton explained very clearly, but everyone was as confused as water vapor.


    "What if the hot steam meets cold things?" Merton smiled mysteriously, reached out and picked up the cold iron tray and put it on the boiling hot pot. Soon, all the beads of water were attached to the cold iron plate. Merton tilted slightly, and suddenly a series of beads of water fell like rain.


    "Rain!" Li Tai suddenly got up and looked at the scene in front of him.


    One side of the Jinyang princess heard the speech, naive ran out of the window, looked at the bright sunshine outside, and said, "brother Qingque, there is no rain outside! The sun is fine!"


    Li Tai suddenly didn''t hear it. He didn''t expect that there would be an unexpected harvest today. He even cracked the formation of rain.


    "Congratulations to the fourth younger brother. I found that the local chronicles is enough to pass down the history!" Li Chengqian gradually understood the truth and couldn''t help congratulating Li Tai.


    Li Tai is also beaming with joy. No one thought that the formation of rain would be so simple. This is a great discovery! Enough to subvert the world''s understanding of rain.


    Before that, the world believed that the rain was controlled by the Dragon King. Every drought season, they would worship the Dragon King and pray for rain. During the drought last year, Li Shimin personally beheaded the Dragon King in order to get rid of feudal superstition. Now, people have cracked the formation of rain. Isn''t that really confirmed the correctness of Li Shimin''s beheading the Dragon King.


    "I don''t dare to take the whole skill, thanks for my brother-in-law''s advice!" Li Tai got up and solemnly said, and directly changed his title!


    "Li Tai!" Princess Changle was ashamed and angry, but her face was proud.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "this is the essence of my Mohist wine making secret skill. I don''t say it. I believe that with the wisdom of the king of Wei, it won''t be long before it can be solved."


    "The secret of wine making!" Li Chengqian looked at the dripping water and suddenly realized that the famous wine for relieving thousands of worries was refined in this way.


    When they heard Li Chengqian''s explanation, they understood the truth. They couldn''t help looking at Merton with strange eyes.


    "Could it be that the secret technique of brewing wine is also the secret technique of Mozi!" Li Zhi asked excitedly. No one is not curious about the endless secret skills written by Mozi.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course not. If everything depended on Mozi''s secret, it would have been empty. In fact, the inspiration of brewing secret skills came from the oil pot I had exposed before."


    "Wash your hands in oil pan?" people thought for a long time before they remembered this thing, which was also a matter of breaking down feudal superstition at that time.


    "The truth of washing hands in an oil pan is that the vinegar in the oil pan first boils and evaporates, and finally only oil is left. At that time, I had a whim to distill the liquor in this way. If the final steam is water, then the rest is wine. If the steam is wine, just collect it, it will naturally be a very pure wine." Merton explained.


    People suddenly understood the causes and consequences, from washing hands in oil pots to brewing secrets, and then to solving the secret of rain. It was really wonderful.


    "By analogy, draw inferences from one instance!" Li Tai couldn''t help thinking.


    "My brother-in-law is so powerful!" Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi couldn''t help cheering.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help showing her worship and asked Li Chengqian to hum.


    After the meal, Li Tai, who was like a treasure, hurried away. Merton took Princess Changle to the west market.


    Numerous envoys came to the Tang Dynasty for the military parade, and countless Hu merchants accompanied them. The western market is particularly prosperous. In addition, the people came to Chang''an city to watch the military parade. These are people of high value. Naturally, they will not miss the opportunity to search for foreign specialties.

 Chapter 642

    "Brother-in-law, but there are western treasures or exotic stunts." Li Zhi said excitedly, but he knew that Merton never returned empty handed every time he went to the west market.


    Merton shook his head and stretched out his hand. Tie an, who had been following behind, hurried in his carriage. He opened the carriage and revealed that it was full of exquisite silk.


    Merton laughed and said, "my task today is to spend all the silk!"


    "A cart of silk!"


    "So much?"


    The people were stunned. There was a cart full of silk. It was very valuable!


    "Don''t use it! If it gets out, it will provoke criticism from the imperial court!" Princess Changle quickly shook her head and said.


    "Call me a black sheep!" Merton said angrily.


    Princess Changle immediately covered her mouth and smiled. Merton looked white. What reputation did he have? He didn''t know? If it is said that Merton spent a whole vehicle of silk in the west market for her, she may be able to make trouble in the court the next day. She doesn''t want the whole Chang''an city to know that the Mohists spent a lot of money to make the beauty laugh. The last famous thing has left her with lingering fear.


    Merton laughed and said, "don''t worry. This time I''m not a loser, but ordered to spend these silks."


    "This is the silk produced by the weaving bureau!" Li Chengqian was surprised to see the origin of this batch of silk.


    "Weaving bureau!"


    Princess Changle had been in the palace for a long time. Naturally, she was no stranger to the silk produced by the weaving Bureau. She was surprised to check it. It was indeed silk with the mark of the weaving Bureau.


    "How could you have these silks!" Princess Changle was surprised. It is reasonable to say that these silks are not in circulation in the market.


    Merton said proudly, "Dai Shangshu entrusted me to sell the silk of the imperial court to the countries in the western regions. Today, pulling this cart of silk is just to explore the market and try the water first. The real big head is still behind?"


    People suddenly! Princess Changle couldn''t help showing a trace of excitement. Ask which woman in the world doesn''t like to buy! Even the expensive princess is no exception.


    "This carpet is good!" Princess Changle instantly changed into the scavenging mode, picked up a Persian carpet and couldn''t put it down.


    "Good eye, girl. This is the most precious carpet in Persia. Only nobles can enjoy it!"


    The Persian Hushang on one side praised Princess Changle''s eyes with half cooked Mandarin.


    "Buy!" Merton waved his big hand.


    "A total of ten Liang silver!" the Persian Hushang couldn''t help but rejoice. There are not many such giants!


    Merton smiled and said, "we don''t have any silver, but I don''t know if we can use it to pay the bill!"


    Merton stretched out his hand and tiean immediately offered a beautiful silk.


    "This is superior silk!" the eyes of Persian Hu merchants suddenly lit up and looked at the exquisite silk in front of them like a treasure. All Hu merchants who have come thousands of miles to Datang have only one purpose, that is, silk. As long as they can successfully transport the silk back, they can immediately obtain 100 times the profits, and there are many bones on the silk road, It is this high profit that constantly attracts wave after wave of Hu merchants to Datang.


    Merton smiled. The silk of the weaving bureau is a rare boutique in the world. These Hu merchants will not miss it.


    One is happy to see a hunter, the other is generous, and the transaction will be completed soon.


    When Princess Changle walked out of the Hu store with the Persian carpet, Li Chengqian couldn''t help thinking about the deal.


    "Brother Gao Ming, can you see anything!" Merton asked.


    Li Chengqian frowned and said, "it''s reasonable that the price of this silk is not enough to cover the price of Persian carpets. Why is this Persian husbandman willing?"


    In the whole trading process, Merton did not force buying and selling, and they did not reveal their identity. However, the unequal price transaction was unexpectedly smooth.


    Merton explained: "brother Gaoming only sees the price of carpets in the Tang Dynasty, but he doesn''t know that carpets in Persia are like silk. Although they are valuable, they are not unattainable. Rich people are everywhere, and the price of silk is as heavy as gold when it reaches the far western country through the hands of these Hu merchants!"


    "Silk and gold are equally heavy!" Li Chengqian couldn''t help breathing. Isn''t the value of so many silk in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Rare things are more expensive. Brother Gaoming only sees the price of silk, but he doesn''t see that these Hu merchants can reach the Far West from the Tang Dynasty. This is one of the reasons why silk is so expensive in the Far West!" Merton explained.


    "Can we sell the silk directly to the far western countries and earn the price difference?" Li Chengqian said with a palpitation. If so, Datang''s benefits are too great for him.


    "I believe that one day, this goal can be achieved, but Datang is still inseparable from these Hu merchants. Now what we have to do is to strive for more interests for Datang as much as possible on the silk road." Merton solemnly said.


    Li Chengqian was thoughtful, so he seriously watched every deal of Merton.


    "This jewelry is very beautiful!" cried Princess Changle.


    "Buy!" Merton did not hesitate and sent a silk.


    "This is also good!"


    "Buy!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After a while, Princess Changle gained a lot. Even Jinyang and Li Zhi also picked up a lot of good things. With Merton waving earth like gold in the west market, the whole west market soon became a sensation.


    "It''s mohou!" many Hu merchants in Chang''an city came to see Merton.


    At the western regions grand event last year, Merton waved the earth like gold, but it impressed many Hu merchants. This year''s western regions grand event was missed by Merton in Tuyuhun, which made many Hu merchants regret. I didn''t expect that Merton came to the western market again and opened the black sheep mode again.


    "There are not many good things this year!" Morton looked up at a group of Hu merchants and said with regret.


    The first Hu merchant was tiewu, an old friend of Merton. Tiewu said with a ashamed face, "Lord Hou, I believe the books and knowledge you want have spread all over the western regions. However, it is not a year and a half to return from Datang to Dashi and other countries. Lord Hou only needs to wait for a few years, but he will not be disappointed. I will inform the Mohu house as soon as I have news."


    Hu Shang, who just arrived in Datang this year, heard that even sheepskin rolls and seeds can be sold at the price of gemstones. His regretful intestines are green. Who would have thought that the value of these humble things is far more than the goods he brought.


    Merton nodded. Naturally, he knew it was urgent. The bait had been sprinkled. For today''s plan, he had to wait for the fish to bite.


    "Since you don''t have what Ben Hou wants, take out your best things for the young lady to choose from. Your silk is indispensable," said Merton Lang.


    Tieuton got up and shouted, "take out your treasures for the beautiful lady to choose!"


    The news about Merton and Princess Changle is not a secret. Hu merchants who have been active in the western regions all year round naturally know that the woman who stays next to Merton can only be princess Changle, but everyone knows it clearly.


    After hearing that Merton, a black sheep, came to the west market, the whole west market immediately became a sensation. Suddenly, countless unheard of treasures were left to Changle to choose.


    A whole cart of silk disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye in exchange for a cart full of Western treasures. At the same time, Merton had a deeper understanding of the silk road.


    "Today''s transportation volume of the silk road is still too small!" Merton lamented. Compared with large-scale transactions between later countries, the current silk road relying solely on the transportation of camel teams not only has less transportation volume and long cycle, but is not enough to support large-scale silk transactions.


    If Datang wants to resell a large number of silk, it is almost impossible to complete. The task of wearing armor is not so easy to complete.

 Chapter 643

    When Merton took a car full of exotic treasures from the western regions to send Princess Changle back to the palace, he was caught by pound who had already been waiting there before he could leave.


    "Moho! Your majesty, please!" said pound, looking at Merton with a smile.


    Merton felt helpless when he heard the speech. Li Shimin didn''t look good every time he saw Merton. Now he is still a little afraid to see Li Shimin.


    When Merton came to the Tai Chi hall, Dai Zhou and Li Shimin had already been waiting here. Seeing Merton coming in, he suddenly turned cold and said, "I heard that the ink sacrifice wine is waving earth like gold in the west market, so cool!"


    You know, Merton, the black sheep of the family, spent not his money, but the silk of the imperial court. No wonder Li Shimin''s face was black.


    Merton laughed and said, "Your Majesty, this is a mistake for Weichen. Weichen''s money is not a hundred flowers, but has obtained a lot of information for my Datang."


    Since Merton boldly spent this batch of silk, naturally he had already figured out his countermeasures and didn''t panic.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "then I''ll listen to how your clever words confuse black and white."


    "Tell your majesty, compared with the envoys of Honglu temple, the information inadvertently revealed by these Hu merchants is the most true. During this trip to the west market, Wei Chen got good news and bad news after careful exploration." Merton sold a pass.


    Unfortunately, Li Shimin and Dai Zhou didn''t take over at all. They watched Merton play and direct.


    Merton quickly said in embarrassment: "the good news is that as soon as Weichen threw out the silk of the weaving Bureau in the western market, it was immediately sought after by the majority of Hu merchants, indicating that the silk of the weaving bureau still has a good market."


    Dai Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and finally couldn''t help asking, "what''s the bad news?"


    Merton regretted: "unfortunately, these Hu merchants have limited financial resources and transportation capacity, and can''t digest this batch of silk at all. Therefore, the method of selling this batch of silk to the western countries and Hu merchants in the western regions simply doesn''t work."


    Silk is a luxury in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention in the western regions and even Persian food countries, it can not be owned by rich and noble princes. Although the price is high, few people can afford it.


    Li Shimin and Dai Zhou suddenly darkened, which was far from what they expected.


    "How much cotton will be planted this year?" Li Shimin asked with a frown.


    "It has reached 3000 mu! At present, 400000 kg of seeded cotton has been harvested," Morton bowed his head. At present, Mojia village is mainly responsible for planting cotton. Of course, Merton knows the situation of cotton best. Under the careful care of Mojia village regardless of cost, the yield of cotton per mu has directly exceeded the 100 kg mark, which can be described as a bumper harvest.


    "In other words, there will be more cotton planting next year!" Li Shimin asked.


    Merton nodded and said, "it can be expanded at least twenty times."


    Li Shimin took a breath. If he kept this pace, cotton would surely blossom everywhere in the Tang Dynasty in a few years, leaving little time for silk.


    "Why don''t we lower the price to attract Hu merchants to buy more silk." Dai Zhou also said anxiously.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, Hu merchants had limited transportation capacity. Even if it was cheaper, they couldn''t transport much. On the contrary, it damaged the due interests of Datang."


    Li Shimin nodded. The benefits of silk are too huge. How can Datang let go easily.


    "Since Hu merchants can travel thousands of miles to Datang, can Datang also set up caravans to go to the western countries." Li Shimin said that if Datang sends a large number of caravans to sell silk, so many silk will not be worried.


    "Your Majesty, this is certainly feasible, but it''s just a drop in the bucket. Moreover, there are many sand thieves on the silk road. Most of our businessmen in the Tang Dynasty are law-abiding people, so I''m afraid it''s difficult to move forward. If..."


    Merton didn''t go on. It was obvious that if the Tang caravan wanted to take the Silk Road, it must get the support of the imperial court and even arm these caravans. The status of businessmen in the Tang Dynasty is low. If these businessmen are suddenly armed, even Li Shimin can''t make a decision for the time being.


    Li Shimin suddenly became angry and stared at Merton with bad eyes. "So, you''ve lost a cart of silk. Now there''s nothing you can do!"


    Merton sighed in his heart and immediately knew that if he didn''t take out some dry goods, he couldn''t pass today.


    "I wonder if your majesty knows the customs!" Murton bowed.


    Li Shimin suddenly lost his head, and Dai Zhou suddenly said, "what Mo Jijiu said is Lord Pei Ju, the former Minister of the Ministry of the people. Lord Pei once set up a supervisory customs office in Zhangye in the previous dynasty, and Hu merchants from the western regions came one after another, making Zhangye an important town in the northwest."


    Li Shimin suddenly said, "you mean reopening Zhangye Jianzhi Guanshi!"


    Merton nodded: "it''s not just Zhangye, but Weichen believes that any border with other countries can set up supervision and customs, and exchange needed goods with other countries."


    "All of them are set up to monitor the customs! Do you think you can sell the silk?" Li Shimin looked at Merton with a look of examination.


    Merton shook his head and said, "these Jianzhi Guanshi naturally can''t digest so much silk from the imperial court, but this is only the first step."


    "The first step?" Li Shimin and Dai Zhou look forward to Merton.


    Merton nodded and said, "the second step is that in these supervised customs markets, only one kind of money can be used for settlement, that is silk!"


    Li Shimin and Dai Zhou looked at each other and didn''t understand what Merton meant, because silk could have been used as money in the Tang Dynasty!


    Merton explained: "Weichen found in the west market that there were three kinds of currencies on the Silk Road, one was Persian silver coins, the other was Kaiyuan Tongbao of Datang, and the third was silk. Now I just need to eliminate the other two currencies, and the sales of silk will increase sharply. Of course, for the sake of Datang''s reputation, this batch of silk is the best silk of the best weaving Bureau."


    The biggest advantage of silk as a currency is that it will not depreciate, and it is recognized as a hard currency on the Silk Road, which is Merton''s strength.


    "Wonderful!" Dai Zhou was immediately impressed. He just wanted Merton to sell the silk, but Merton found a way to use the silk as both goods and money.


    "What''s the difference?" Li Shimin was confused and didn''t understand.


    Merton showed a trace of confidence: "Your Majesty, if we ordinary people want to buy things, do we have to prepare a lot of money in advance, so as long as Hu merchants want to trade with Datang, we must start with silk. In this way, a large amount of silk will be stored in Hu merchants'' hands to buy Datang goods. In this way, your majesty still worries about the origin of the silk from the weaving bureau?"


    Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly flashed, and he suddenly understood the truth. This is like the treasure house of rural rich people. It must be full of copper money, and Merton just changed the copper money into silk.


    Merton continued: "Not only that, in the future, Tang merchants will also pay for goods purchased from other countries with silk. Moreover, the currencies of the western countries are not connected at all, and the quality of gold and silver is different. However, the silk of the weaving bureau can maintain its value and facilitate transportation. If the transactions of various countries on the Silk Road are settled with silk, I''m afraid the silk in your Majesty''s hands Will not be enough! "


    This is the way Merton thinks about it and Datang wants to obtain the greatest benefits on the Silk Road, that is, to establish a Datang silk system.

 Chapter 644

    "Datang silk system!"


    When Li Shimin heard this word for the first time, he couldn''t help wondering.


    Dai Zhou on one side was also confused and looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton explained: "The so-called Datang silk system is to make use of the influence of the military parade and the prestige of Datang to forcibly stipulate that Datang silk can be used as the common currency of all countries in the world and can be circulated in all countries. It can not only be transported to the far western countries to earn high profits, but also be traded between countries. In this way, it is greatly convenient for Datang to trade with Hu merchants and the West In this way, the silk of Datang will surely sell well all over the world. "


    "Silk as the common currency in the world!" Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly brightened. He was excited just thinking of this possibility.


    "How could the western countries agree to treat silk as money?" Dai Zhou said excitedly and uneasily. The big cake Merton drew for him was too big for him to accept.


    Merton shook his head and said, "but this requires the influence of Datang to sign an agreement with envoys of other countries and take silk as the only currency for bilateral transactions."


    The silk road is popular. This is the moment when silk has the greatest value and the highest credit. It is the best time to take silk as the common currency in the world.


    "In this way, silk has become another white deer coin!" Dai Zhou didn''t immerse himself in surprise, but calmed down.


    "White Deer coin!" Li Shimin was surprised, and he calmed down slowly from ecstasy.


    The White Deer coin was invented by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. At that time, the Han Dynasty was at war with the Huns. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was financially nervous. In order to raise money, he directly took the white deer skin as a currency, and it was very valuable. It was almost like robbing money by selling it directly to the nobility.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Lord Dai''s words are bad. White deer skin itself is worthless. However, silk is also valuable in our Tang Dynasty, and can even be used as money. On the Silk Road, it is often used for the transaction of large goods. Its value has been recognized by all countries in the western regions. How can it be compared with white deer coins."


    Li Shimin nodded. From this point, silk is very different from white deer coin.


    "But silk is not gold and silver after all, how can the countries in the western regions be willing to!" Dai Zhou frowned. As the Minister of the people, he deals with money all day. If he suddenly changes all the money in the imperial court''s Treasury into silk, I''m afraid he will go crazy immediately.


    Merton took a deep breath and felt it necessary to popularize money knowledge to the two people. He got up and said, "gold and silver is indeed recognized in the world, but it is not the only money. Your majesty, do you know that most of my Chinese words about money are beside Bei?"


    Merton said and wrote on the rice paper, money, accounts, expensive, poor, cheap... And so on.


    Li Shimin took over and saw it. He was surprised. It was the first time he found this strange phenomenon in his life.


    "The old minister has heard of it! In fact, in ancient times, the oldest money in China was shells! So that the words gradually evolved here." Dai Zhou explained.


    Li Shimin suddenly looked at these words with a sad face and looked at them curiously.


    "Yes, the ancients used shells for money. Even now, all parts of the grassland use animal skins for money, and there are countless and even more strange currencies in the western regions. Now why can''t we use silk as money?" Merton asked.


    Dai Zhou suddenly became silent. As the Minister of civil affairs of the Tang Dynasty, he was most proficient in the way of money. Naturally, he knew what Merton said was right.


    "Moreover, this is not bad for all the countries in the world. There are many small countries in the western region with different currencies, and even the fineness of gold and silver. Mutual trading will remain the same. If silk is used to trade goods, it can be said to be extremely convenient. This is also the biggest opportunity for silk as the common currency in the world, and this can reduce the risk of copper shortage in the Tang Dynasty!" Merton said positively.


    Li Shimin nodded again and again. Now Datang is a powerful country in the world. He is also a heavenly Khan. Datang''s money can naturally become the common currency in the world. Datang''s is Kaiyuan Tongbao. In addition, he is short of copper, so he uses silk cloth as supplementary currency. Lack of copper has always been the biggest problem of Datang.


    Moreover, silk is unique to the Tang Dynasty. There can be a continuous flow of silk production every year. There is no need to worry about the supply of raw materials.


    "This is really very beneficial to our Tang Dynasty, but how can we force the western countries to trade their gold and silver with silk instead of gold and silver?" Dai Zhou shook his head.


    "Datang is a state of etiquette. Naturally, it will not do forcible robbery. However, in the future, Datang''s transactions with other countries must be monitored in the customs. Datang will only pay for goods from other countries with silk, and only accept silk when selling goods to other countries." Merton showed a trace of confidence.


    Dai Zhou thought a little and gradually understood the truth, that is to use the power of the Tang Dynasty to promote this.


    "Moreover, at the moment, the envoys of all countries are in Chang''an city. We can take this opportunity to sign an agreement with the envoys of all countries, so that the countries in the western regions can not only trade with Datang with silk, but also accept silk as the common currency. In this way, Datang is like controlling the coinage right in the world!" Merton said excitedly.


    "Coinage!"


    Li Shimin and Dai Zhou were suddenly breathless. As the imperial court, they naturally knew how profitable coinage was. If it was successful, the benefits of the Tang Dynasty would be too great. Li Shimin and Dai Zhou were not impressed.


    Li Shimin didn''t expect that they just wanted Merton to sell these silks, and Merton took the opportunity to arrange such a grand plan. Once Datang silk became the common currency in the world, Datang would not only obtain a lot of economic benefits, but also gain a lot of political influence, killing two birds with one stone.


    "Is it feasible?" Li Shimin was offended.


    Dai Zhou bowed his head and said thoughtfully, "if this matter is successful, it will be beneficial and harmless to our Tang Dynasty. However, if we want to implement this matter, I''m afraid it will be difficult to prevent it."


    Dai Zhou naturally knew the advantages, but he understood how difficult it was to do all this. Moreover, the people of the western countries were not united, and there must be countless objections.


    Li Shimin immediately looked at Merton.


    Merton smiled and said, "it''s easy if it works. It depends on your Majesty''s determination."


    "No matter how much it costs, it will be done," Li Shimin said firmly.


    When Merton heard the speech, he said positively, "as long as Datang publicly promised, countries can exchange silk with Datang at any time and exchange equivalent silver with Datang at a fixed exchange rate!"


    This is the core of the Datang silk system, that is, linking silk with silver! Free convertibility, the core of the Bretton Woods system of later generations is to link the US dollar with gold. However, Datang gold is not the most common currency at the moment. In block transactions, silver is the real main force. Moreover, Datang copper money is not enough and gold is scarce. As long as silver is the most appropriate medium.


    "Silk and silver are linked and freely convertible!" Li Shimin suddenly opened his mind.


    Even Dai Zhou nodded and said, "if so, it will be done."


    "This matter is very important. We need three provinces and six ministries to discuss it together. Merton, you will explain it to all officials at the great court meeting tomorrow." Li Shimin has no interests. He is right. Such a big thing can''t be carried out without the cooperation of the whole court.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei!" Merton said positively.

 Chapter 645

    The next day, at the Grand Court meeting.


    When Li Shimin announced the customs and Tang silk system, it immediately caused an uproar in the Manchu Dynasty.


    "I know that it was a good policy of the previous dynasty to close the market. I have no objection to it, but this silk system of the Tang Dynasty has never been heard of. It''s unimaginable!" Wei Zheng said blankly.


    In fact, Wei Zheng was more than confused. I''m afraid there were only a few important ministers in the Manchu Dynasty, such as Fang Xuanling, who didn''t understand. Other ministers were like listening to the heavenly book.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "this matter is complex and complicated. To put it simply, all transactions between Datang and other countries in the future will be settled with silk, and silk will be used as the currency for bulk goods transactions of all countries in the world. That is to say, if only one person holds Datang''s silk, he can travel freely in all countries in the world."


    Li Shimin thought about it all night before he understood the silk system of the Tang Dynasty. He couldn''t help learning and selling now.


    "This..."


    The Manchu civil and military could not help but be shocked. The phenomenon Li Shimin said was so amazing that the Manchu courtiers could not accept it for a moment.


    "Does your majesty want to follow the example of Qin Shihuang''s waste of the money of the six countries and position Qin banliang as the only currency in the world!" Fang Xuanling wondered.


    When Fang Xuanling finished, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar. Qin Shihuang''s unified currency was the first time in Chinese history. At the moment, what Li Shimin did was even more amazing. He didn''t want to unify the currency of the Tang Dynasty, but wanted to unify the currency of the world.


    Li Shimin said proudly, "the reason is the same, but what I have done is not to abolish the currencies of other countries, but to have another kind of money that can be used by all countries in the world. You are all knowledgeable people. I believe you must know the benefits of the unified currency of the Qin Dynasty."


    The officials of the Manchu Dynasty were silent one after another. Naturally, they knew the benefits of monetary unification. However, the unification of money and wealth of the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty was successful only on the basis of the unification of the Qin Dynasty. How can the Tang Dynasty control the western countries thousands of miles away.


    "The western countries are rebellious and difficult to tame. I''m afraid it''s very difficult to carry out this!" Fang Xuanling frowned, and all the officials nodded one after another.


    Li Shimin nodded solemnly and said, "so the ink sacrifice wine came up with a great idea, that is to link silk with silver and allow countries to exchange silk for silver."


    Li Shimin knows that rabbits don''t scatter eagles. If Datang doesn''t pay some real gold and silver, I''m afraid it will be absolutely difficult. If silk is equal to silver, it is highly likely to succeed.


    "Ink sacrifice! Exchange silk for silver!" the officials immediately focused on Merton in the corner of the military general.


    Li Junxian in front of Merton felt the sharp eyes of all officials. He was startled and quickly turned sideways to expose Merton in the sight of everyone.


    "No righteousness!" Merton couldn''t help looking at Li Jun''s envy, so he had to bow his hands and come out.


    The officials of the Manchu Dynasty were also helpless for a while. Everyone knew that the Mohist school could toss, but it seemed that it was tossing more and more at a time. This time, it was such a big storm. Once the Datang silk system was implemented, it was not a matter of tens of thousands. I''m afraid it would be too much to handle hundreds of millions of money. How can we not make all officials tremble.


    "Ink offering wine, what''s going on?" Fang Xuanling said word by word.


    In the eyes of the Manchu courtiers, Merton calmly took out a piece of cotton from his arms: "it''s a long story. Please tell me in detail."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "You mean, because of this, the monetary system of the Tang Dynasty will collapse in five years." Wei Zheng couldn''t believe looking at the cotton in Merton''s hand.


    Merton nodded and said, "gold and silver are naturally unimpeded, and the value of silk will certainly plummet. I believe you will not want to see the consequences."


    When man Chaodun was in an uproar, silk was an indispensable part of the Tang Dynasty monetary system. If the silk price collapses, I''m afraid the shock will be earth shaking.


    "I beg your majesty to seal up this thing thoroughly and try to ensure the stability of our Tang Dynasty." Quan Wanji suddenly admonished when he heard the speech.


    For a while, many courtiers echoed.


    Merton sneered: "you avoid this thing like snakes and scorpions, but you don''t know that this is the greatest wealth in the world. In the future, its value will be 100 times that of silk."


    Merton did not exaggerate this. In later generations, the output value of cotton was not only 100 times that of silk, but also a thousand times.


    "A hundred times more than silk!" all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t believe looking at the white cotton in front of them.


    "Don''t bully me. My eyes are dazed. Isn''t this baidiezi in the western regions? What''s valuable?" Wei Zheng didn''t believe.


    All the officials agreed one after another and didn''t believe what Merton said at all.


    Merton stretched out his hand and immediately a team of bodyguards rushed into the Tai Chi hall. Each person held a thing in his hand, which immediately attracted the attention of all officials.


    Merton introduced to the courtiers one by one: "this is a cotton thread spun from cotton, this is a cotton cloth woven from cotton thread, this is a cotton padded jacket made of cotton, and the last is a quilt for sleeping."


    All the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Merton in a daze and didn''t understand what Merton meant.


    "That is, cotton can be planted everywhere like hemp. It is cheap! It can also be as warm as mink fur! If Mohist technology is adopted, it can also be as exquisite as silk. Once it is produced, it can be worth one for three. Everyone in the world has a protective clothing and something to keep out the cold, and there will be no pain of cold." Merton said proudly.


    "Seriously?" Wei Zheng trembled and dared not believe. If Merton was serious, it would be a blessing in the world.


    Su Lingnong said without hesitation, "I can prove it to be true. At present, the seeds of cotton have been collected in Mojia village. Within five years, cotton will certainly spread all over Datang."


    He is the big Si Nong of the Tang Dynasty. He is personally responsible for the cotton planting in Mojia village. Naturally, he knows best.


    Li Shimin nodded and confirmed it.


    "God bless the Tang Dynasty!" Wei Zheng said tremblingly.


    Manchu officials also showed a happy face. Cheng Yaojin couldn''t wait to try on his cotton padded jacket. After a while, he covered his whole body with sweat,


    "This thing really keeps out the cold!" Cheng Yaojin affirmed.


    Li Shimin nodded: "This is my dilemma. On the one hand, cotton is related to the survival of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty, which is not easy to slow down. On the other hand, silk is the lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty, which can not be easily turbulent. Fortunately, the Datang silk system envisaged by Youmo sacrifice wine transfers silk to various countries. In this way, the price of silk is stabilized, so that the price of silk will not be turbulent, and cotton can also be vigorously promoted It''s the best of both worlds. "


    "In this way, the silk system of the Tang Dynasty is indeed a good recipe, and I agree." Fang Xuanling bowed.


    "Minister also seconded!" Wei Zheng nodded.


    In front of the officials, sun Wuji, who had been silent, suddenly said, "I have a doubt whether I can answer it."


    "Eldest grandson, please speak!" Merton frowned.


    "According to Mo Jijiu, five years later, cotton will be popular in the Tang Dynasty, and the importance of silk will be greatly reduced. Are the countries in the western regions still willing to accept silk as currency?" Chang sun Wuji said.


    The Manchu courtiers calmed down from ecstasy and bowed their heads to think about this problem.


    Merton said without hesitation: "At that time, although the price of silk decreased in the Tang Dynasty, the demand for silk in the far western countries continued, which did not damage the value of silk. Moreover, if the court determined that the Tang Dynasty was silk and could be exchanged for silver at any time, the Tang silk system would be free. In other words, as long as the court agreed to exchange silver unconditionally, let alone silk or precious white deer skin , even a piece of paper, the boy dares to take it. "


    The other ministers only thought Merton was joking, and only Dai Zhou thought.


    Changsun Wuji asked again, "what if one day Datang doesn''t have so much silver exchange?"


    When the eldest sun Wuji finished, he was quiet and frowned one by one.


    Merton sneered: "the Tang Dynasty silk system will naturally have no need to exist. The price of silk has plummeted in the hands of other countries! It is not our Tang Dynasty that has suffered losses."


    The collapse of the Bretton Woods system in later generations came from the overspending of the United States on domestic gold reserves and the printing of the US dollar. After the collapse, the depreciation of the US dollar was equal to the harvest of a wave of wealth in a disguised form by the United States.


    "In this way, I have no objection, and I agree!" Sun Wuji bowed to Li Shimin.


    "Minister and others seconded!" all the officials worshipped one after another.


    The silk system of the Tang Dynasty was officially adopted in the dynasty hall.

 Chapter 646

    "Keep you waiting!"


    In Honglu temple, Merton laughed loudly and entered the post station of envoys of various countries.


    "It''s mohou! I heard that mohou made a big deal in the west market yesterday. He pulled a full truck of top-grade silk to buy in the west market. The businessmen in the west market were crazy. Even Honglu Temple heard of it." Lu Dongzan saw Merton come in, showed a warm smile on his face and got up to welcome him.


    "Lu Da said that he was ashamed of the bad boy. He didn''t expect that the bad name of the boy''s family ruin had spread to the ears of all messengers." Merton was ashamed, but there was a look of pride on his face, a proper face of a family ruin.


    Many envoys suddenly felt cold and painful. A cart full of top-grade silk is of amazing value in western countries, but it was spent by Merton in the Tang Dynasty. How can this difference not make people jealous.


    "It''s worthy of the mohou who wrote about the return of thousands of gold. Xiao Wang admires it!" Qu Zhisheng suppressed his jealousy and complimented. Even as a prince of a country, he couldn''t be such a loser as Merton.


    Immediately, other messengers came as if flattering without money. Merton dealt with the people one by one with ease.


    Seeing this, Lu Dongzan quickly opened the topic and said, "I heard that mohou needs a batch of Tibetan sorghum. The envoy has hurried back to send a message. I think it''s coming to the Tang Dynasty. I hope mohou won''t forget to accept it."


    "Thank you for your great theory. I''m afraid Mojia village will need more Tibetan sorghum in the future. At that time, please help more." Merton laughed.


    Ludongzan was cold in his heart. Now Tubo has got the secret skill of brewing wine. I''m afraid it''s impossible for Mojia village to get Tubo sorghum without paying a price.


    "It''s easy to say. It''s on your lower body." Lu Dongzan said very righteous. Suddenly, a embarrassed look appeared on his face and said: "The next envoy wants to ask mohou for help. Tubo and Datang have always been friends. The next envoy has repeatedly asked to trade with Datang. However, Tian Khan has not responded. Now we are about to return home. I wonder if mohou can help facilitate this. At that time, I promise that the products of Mojia village will be unimpeded in Tubo."


    Lu Dongzan saw that the road of reconciliation had been cut off. Now only trade was left to obtain Datang''s technology. He couldn''t wait to promote it. When he learned that Mojia village was in trouble, he found Merton.


    As soon as Lu Dongzan''s voice fell, other envoys immediately calmed down and trade with the Tang Dynasty, which is almost the common purpose of all countries. After all, the goods produced by the Tang Dynasty are exquisite, and the countries west of the western regions are very fond of the goods of the Tang Dynasty. As long as the goods produced from the Tang Dynasty are sold, they can make a lot of profits, especially silk.


    Stimulated by huge profits, countries in the western regions frequently wrote to ask for mutual market. However, Datang seemed to have no response in this regard. Coupled with Tuyuhun''s repeated troubles, harassment and control of the Silk Road, countries in the western regions were extremely hungry for Datang''s goods.


    Merton laughed and said, "I''m going to tell you the good news. Your majesty has decided to reopen the supervision and knowledge customs at the borders of various countries so that Datang and other countries can exchange what they need."


    "Great!" all the messengers jumped with joy one by one. As long as the mutual market can be reached, their mission to Datang this time must be a great achievement.


    "Exchange what you need, I don''t know if silk is in it!" Qu Zhisheng carefully explored. After all, the main purpose of their exchange is for silk.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "of course silk is among them, and today, Mo came to discuss silk with you."


    The messengers looked so moved that they immediately knew that the business was coming.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, after Zhang Jian''s mission to the western regions, the silk road was officially opened. Silk is known as the most precious goods in the desert. Even in the far western country, the price of silk is as heavy as gold!" Merton said.


    "As heavy as gold!" all the messengers immediately took a breath.


    "Seriously!" Qu Zhisheng repeatedly asked.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is what the Mohist ancestors saw with their own eyes when they traveled all over the far western country. Even more, the king of the far western country still couldn''t stop this trend in order to prohibit the outflow of gold and even prohibit his people from wearing silk."


    "However, most of the huge profits are occupied by countries close to the far western countries, but the Tang Dynasty and Western countries have gained little. This is unfair to us, even to the far western countries. We should not only improve our profits, but also have the obligation to let more people in the far western countries wear cheap and beautiful silk." Merton said excitedly.


    "Yes! We also want to make money!" many envoys of western countries were immediately agitated by their interests, and their eyes were red.


    Even ludongzan had to praise Merton for his beautiful play, but he did not point out that, after all, it had nothing to do with Tubo in the interests of the silk road.


    Merton suddenly showed a confident smile. In terms of the interests of silk, the interests of the Tang Dynasty and the western countries are the same, which is the root of the success of the Tang silk system.


    "Therefore, we decided to buy silk from the western countries in the future, only from the Jianzhi customs market, but only the best silk produced by the Datang weaving Bureau." Merton shouted.


    "You can only buy it from Jianzhi Guanshi!" the envoys frowned. If so, isn''t it that what Datang said is what price.


    Qu Zhisheng carefully tried, "this is the order of Tian Khan!"


    "Of course!" Merton nodded without hesitation.


    "Not only that, in the future, if you want to buy other goods of Datang in Jianzhi customs City, Jianzhi customs city will only accept silk as currency. Similarly, Datang will only pay silk when purchasing goods from other countries."


    As soon as Merton finished, all the messengers were in an uproar. No one thought that Datang had put forward this condition.


    "It''s impossible! Chinese businessmen have traveled thousands of miles and can''t ask for gold and silver. Although silk is expensive, it needs someone to buy it in exchange for money. What''s the use of asking for so much silk! Datang''s move is too overbearing." Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but complain.


    Other messengers echoed and supported Qu Zhisheng. They came thousands of miles for money, not silk that could not be eaten or worn.


    Merton said with a confident smile, "you don''t have to worry about this. If you don''t have enough silk in your hands, you can come and exchange with Datang. Datang can exchange equivalent silver for you unconditionally."


    "Exchange silk for silver!" envoys of various countries could not help but open their eyes and looked at Merton in disbelief.


    Merton smiled and said, "and how much you have, you can change it according to the price known by the supervisor."


    The messengers immediately looked at each other. They didn''t understand the meaning of Datang sparing such a large circle. It''s better to trade directly with silver!


    "In addition, the Tang Dynasty needs to sign credentials with you. The transactions between countries are settled in silk units and allowed to circulate. In this way, the transactions between countries will be greatly convenient and fair, which will be of great benefit to us." Merton said.


    "All our countries have their own money, how can we use silk as money!" Qu Zhisheng said discontentedly.


    Merton sneered when he heard the speech, took out a piece of silver and said, "this is Gaochang''s silver. I''m afraid few businessmen are willing to accept it."


    Qu Zhisheng suddenly turned black.


    "This is Kucha''s copper coin, which contains about 60% copper!" Merton took out another copper coin and said.


    Kucha emissary immediately showed a proud look. However, before he was proud, Merton forced him in the face and said, "the workmanship is too poor. Any craftsman in the Tang Dynasty can imitate it."


    The tortoise messenger suddenly wilted.


    Then, when Merton took out the coins of each country to comment, an envoy was silent.


    "There are different coins and purity among different countries. How can money be exchanged? But the silk of Datang is produced by the weaving Bureau. It is not only expensive, but also impossible to copy. If it is used in all countries, it is believed to be very beneficial to all countries. Moreover, as long as you can earn enough silk, Datang can unconditionally exchange you for silver of the same value. This is not the case Some miscellaneous silver, but pure silver! "Merton fully revealed the plan of the silk system of the Tang Dynasty."


    Many envoys of prosperous countries suddenly felt a move in their hearts. It seemed to be quite beneficial to them, and they couldn''t help but palpitate.


    "In addition, the Tang Dynasty asked all countries to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the safety of the trade route, eliminating sand thieves, and fixing the tax rate. The additional tax on the business travel of the Silk Road should not exceed 20 taxes and 1 tax." Merton firmly said.


    Don''t think there are very few 20 taxes. You should know that these small state-owned countries are only a small city, and there are many small countries in the western region. Every time you pay a tax in a small city, the tax that Hu merchants have to pay is not a small amount!


    "It''s our duty to eliminate sand bandits, but the tax rate of 20 taxes and 1 is too low! Didn''t mohou say that these Hu merchants sold to the far west country and gold?" some envoys were dissatisfied.


    For a long time, countries in the western regions have wantonly oppressed Hu merchants, often imposing heavy taxes, and fatally oppressed merchants on the Silk Road, not to mention 20 taxes and one tax. It is also common to rob Hu Shangming.


    In the past, these Hu merchants could only break their teeth and swallow into their stomach, but who would have thought that Datang would take the initiative to stand up for these Hu merchants.


    Merton sneered: "It''s as important as gold. That''s because things are rare as expensive. There are too few business trips to the Far West, and there are too few silk. The silk road is full of bones, and the long yellow sand devours no human life. Hundreds of caravans go to Datang, but there is no one left. The boy even heard that the troops of some small countries even play a guest role in sand thieves behind their backs He took up the means of killing people and stealing goods. "


    Merton''s fierce eyes swept through the western countries, and many envoys immediately bowed their heads with a guilty conscience. They naturally knew more about the foundation of their own country. Some tribes were people during the day and thieves at night, and sometimes the army also played a guest role in sand thieves.


    Merton said sternly, "all the previous Datang can let bygones be bygones. From now on, Datang will also send envoys to all countries in the western regions, and send people to accompany the Hu Shang camel team. Each country will count the number of people. If something happens in any country, you are damaging Datang''s interests. If Khan blames you in the future, don''t blame Mo for not reminding you today."


    The envoys were awe inspiring. During the military parade, Datang''s strength suddenly appeared in front of them, especially Datang, who controls gunpowder, is invincible in the world. Let alone Datang sending troops, as long as Datang gives instructions, I''m afraid there will be countless small countries charging for it.


    "Of course, as long as you agree to sign a national certificate with Datang, Datang will certainly ensure the safety of Paul and others. Even in the future, there will be continuous business travel on the silk road. Mo can ensure that the benefits of various countries on the silk road will be ten times and 100 times in the future." Merton knows the strategy of carrot and stick and shows the benefits and interests one by one.


    Many envoys of small countries in the western regions suddenly brightened their eyes. Many countries are extremely weak. Only one small city can stand on its own as king. It is not safe at all. If they can get the protection of the Tang Dynasty, it will naturally benefit a lot. They believe that their country''s Lord will not refuse such good things.


    In addition, the huge benefits shown by Merton are also predictable. Once the safety of the silk road is guaranteed, countless businessmen will join it. I''m afraid the silk road will be busy several times in an instant. In the long run, it will benefit more.


    Although the conditions of the Tang Dynasty were strong, at least in the view of the envoys of the western countries, they did not endanger the rights and interests of their own countries. For a moment, many envoys were quite excited.


    However, although the conditions of the Tang Dynasty are good, one person is quite dissatisfied. That is, the special envoy of the Western Turks wants to set up Gu. Once the conditions of the Tang Dynasty are agreed by the countries in the western regions, it means that the forces of the Tang Dynasty have fully expanded to the western regions, which has seriously affected the position of the Western Turks.


    "I don''t agree with the Western Turks. The western regions are the western regions of the western people, not the western regions of the Tang Dynasty. According to the idea of the Tang Dynasty, the bulk of the silk profits were taken away by the Tang Dynasty, and I just drank a little soup." Yugu Sheh, dressed in grassland clothes, flatly retorted.


    West Turk is now the overlord of the western regions. Many small countries in the western regions immediately trembled when they wanted to make a sound. They were also very embarrassed between Datang and West Turk.


    Merton said coldly, "if anyone does not agree to join the Datang silk system, there is no need to open supervision and customs with Datang, and naturally there is no need to enjoy the benefits of silk. Datang will not supply silk like it."


    Yugu set his mind to jump. He couldn''t believe looking at the strong Merton and said, "you''re not afraid that I, the West Turks, will intercept all those Hu merchants. None of them can come to Datang."


    Merton snorted coldly, "don''t look at the West Turks. You know, there is not only one silk road."


    Merton did not falsely say that the Silk Road from Chang''an city to the west is divided into three roads: South, middle and North. What the West Turks control is only the North Road, which has the ability to influence the middle road. As for the South Road, it is out of reach to set up a valley.


    "I Khotan is willing to join the Datang silk system," said the Khotan envoy without hesitation.


    "Khotan!" said Yugu, gnashing his teeth.


    However, Khotan envoys are happy and not afraid. Khotan is located on the South Road of the silk road. It is 800 miles away from the Western Turks. Naturally, they are not afraid of the Western Turks. However, after the Tang Dynasty conquered Tuyuhun, they can easily clean up Khotan. Khotan naturally knows how to choose and immediately comes to the Tang Dynasty at the first time.


    Yugu set was embarrassed, but he refused to let him stop. "If the silk road is interrupted, I think this so-called Datang silk system will be a joke!"


    Merton said proudly without fear: "Even if the Western Turks unify the whole western region, they will cut off all three routes. My Tang Dynasty can also start from the Lingnan road sea route. I think that the silk loaded by sea ships is much more than that of camels. I''m afraid that''s the real way out of the silk road. At that time, my whole western region will lose the benefits of the Silk Road and will soon decline! From this point of view, yes You ask Datang, not Datang! "


    "Mohou calms down and has something to say. Do you have money to make together?"


    When Merton lifted the table, many Western envoys immediately panicked. The silk road has fed many small countries in the western regions. If the silk road is cut off, the worst thing is not Datang nor Western Turks, but their small countries.


    Ludong praised and exhorted, "if you want to set up envoys in the valley, why are you so angry? Have something to say."


    Yugu Sheh also took the opportunity to go down the slope. He just made some cruel remarks. If he really cut off the Silk Road, I''m afraid the nobles of Western Turks will not let him go. After all, this is related to the interests of too many people.


    "It''s a matter of great importance. Xiao Wang should go back and report to his father!" Qu Zhisheng did not say it directly when he saw that Yugu was set aside. However, everyone knew that it was impossible for Gaochang and Datang to give up the interests of trade and silk with Datang and join Datang''s silk system sooner or later.


    Suddenly, many envoys of western countries in the middle road wanted to show that they would go back to discuss with the king. After all, a small envoy can''t decide this matter.


    "That''s natural. After you return home later, the special envoy of the Tang Dynasty will accompany you with the national credentials of the Tang Dynasty and discuss this matter with the kings of various countries face to face." Merton Lang said. Merton naturally knows that his task has been completed. Next, we need to see the people specially trained by the Tang Dynasty.


    No! Diplomats!

 Chapter 647

    "Ink offering wine!"


    When Merton went out of Honglu temple, Linghu Deyu immediately welcomed him, looking forward to it.


    "Finally live up to expectations!"


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief and nodded heavily.


    Linghu Deyu immediately smiled with joy. If the Tang silk system was successful, the ritual department would immediately hold heavy power, which was much higher than the previous position. All this was won by Merton.


    "Now the vertical and horizontal people trained by Honglu temple have been waiting for a long time. Please arrange for Mo sacrifice and how to cooperate with this." Linghu de can''t wait.


    If the silk system of the Tang Dynasty wants to be completely successful, it must be inseparable from the cooperation of these vertical and horizontal people. It is reasonable for Linghu De to invite Merton to come.


    Merton nodded and followed Linghu dehu to a hall of the Ministry of rites. As soon as he opened the door, he saw that the house had already been filled with many officials of the Ministry of rites. Obviously, these were the envoys of the Tang Dynasty who were about to send to other countries.


    "This is the famous Mo Hou''s Mo sacrifice wine. You must be familiar with it. It is proposed by the Mo sacrifice wine to cultivate vertical and horizontal people for the imperial court. If you can take this opportunity today, thank you for the success of the Mo sacrifice wine." Linghu de Hui walked in proudly and pointed to Merton and introduced it to a group of officials of the ritual department.


    Hu Dehui didn''t exaggerate. These officials were all ordinary officials of the Ministry of rites. Most of them were idle, and perhaps they didn''t have a chance to make a start in their life. Suddenly there were so many vacancies in Honglu temple, which immediately gave many officials at the bottom of the Ministry of rites a chance. Moreover, the court promised that they would be promoted as soon as they were sent to the country, which was a good thing for people to struggle for less years, People see Merton''s eyes naturally different.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" a group of officials saluted one after another.


    Merton''s sacrificial position is now no more than six grades, and even some senior officials present here are inferior. Naturally, people are interested in calling him lord Merton. Although Merton is young, Merton''s reputation is outside, and no one can despise him and respect him one by one.


    Merton waved his hand and quickly saluted: "you are all senior officials. I really can''t afford such a big gift."


    Seeing that the two sides had met each other, Linghu de continued: "I believe you have understood the Datang silk system proposed by Duke mo. you will be resident in the western regions in the future. The main purpose is to cooperate with the imperial court to complete this matter. Now please tell me what you need to cooperate with."


    "Pa Pa Pa!"


    Immediately, there was constant applause. Since the military parade, the welcome method of applause quickly spread all over Chang''an City, and was applied to various occasions without teachers. Merton didn''t expect to apply it to himself so soon.


    Merton took a deep breath and said solemnly, "first of all, mermou would like to congratulate you on your grand plans. You are extremely lucky people, because behind you is the most powerful country in the world, because you represent the Tang Dynasty. No matter which country you wait, you will certainly become a guest of the king."


    Suddenly, many officials of the Ministry of rites turned red and their hearts were agitated. They were just ordinary officials in the Tang Dynasty. Once they were sent to the western regions, their power and status were different. How could such ambitious officials not be excited.


    "Since the Tang Dynasty has given you rights and status, you should also live up to the great expectations of the Tang Dynasty. First, you should ensure the smooth silk road and safeguard the interests of the Tang silk in all countries in the western regions." Merton solemnly said.


    A group of etiquette officials nodded one after another. They knew the importance of the silk road without Merton reminding them.


    "Second, it is to hand over the forces close to the Tang Dynasty and make the western countries friendly with the Tang Dynasty. This can maintain the peace between the Tang Dynasty and the western regions, which is also good for you!" Merton said solemnly.


    "If there are small citizens who are stubborn! We are only dozens of people who deliberately block the silk road. How can we control the countries?" a voice suddenly asked.


    Merton looked at him and saw a young official in his twenties looking at him calmly.


    "I don''t know what to call your excellency!" Merton asked.


    "I''ll see you later, Lord Mo!" the young official saluted respectfully.


    Wang xuance! Merton looked at Wang xuance in surprise. He was curious about the great man who destroyed one country by one in history. The wheel of history was really wonderful. Unexpectedly, this man also appeared among these messengers.


    Merton said with an inexplicable smile: "What you represent is the Tang Dynasty. What will happen if the eastern Turks disrespect you! What will happen if Tuyuhun disrespects you! In the past, when you were in glory, when you were angry and the princes were afraid, the world would rest if you lived in peace. What you represent is the Tang Dynasty. What you said in the western countries represents the will of the Tang Dynasty. Disrespect to you by the western countries is disrespect to the Tang Dynasty. If a small national is stubborn and blocks the Silk Road, the boy thinks that it may not be necessary for Datang to take action. Your envoys can shout and borrow troops from other countries. "


    When Merton finished, Wang xuance was shocked and his eyes flashed. Other ritual officials also breathed. Originally, they were a little afraid of the western regions thousands of miles away. After all, it is well known that the northwest is a bitter and cold place and extremely desolate. However, after Merton said, there was only passion in their hearts.


    Linghu Deyu also said proudly: "what Marquis Mo said is very true. Although you are far away from abroad, Datang is your biggest backer. You are in charge of everything. However, if you dare to act recklessly by relying on the reputation of Datang, Datang will not spare you."


    "Yes!" a group of etiquette officials respectfully replied.


    Merton then said with a smile: "you can rest assured that even if there is war between the two countries in the future, Datang will certainly withdraw you at the first time and will not put you in danger. In addition, you are going to travel to other countries for the purpose of peace. I believe that the countries in the western regions will certainly feel Datang''s goodwill and make the right choice."


    People nodded one after another. After the military parade, almost all the people of the Tang Dynasty were full of pride. Naturally, all officials saw the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty with their own eyes and were immediately full of confidence in sending envoys to the western countries.


    "Then I wish you all a successful start in advance, so that the vertical and horizontal learning can replay its brilliance in the western regions, unite vertically and horizontally for our Tang Dynasty, and create a prosperous era of our Tang Dynasty." Merton congratulated.


    "Thanks for Mo''s offering wine and auspicious words!" Linghu dehu also said solemnly. These etiquette officials who are sent to various countries have a close relationship


    "Maybe in the future, we can reproduce the great cause of Zhang Jian and ban Dingyuan." many ritual officials proudly said, among which Wang xuance''s eyes were shining and his heart was thoughtful.

 Chapter 648

    When a large number of Tang imperial officials left with the envoys of western countries, the news that Tang was about to open the customs surveillance spread all over Chang''an City and spread to all parts of Tang at a rapid speed.


    Countless businessmen in Chang''an city immediately caused a sensation. They were ecstatic one by one. They gathered together and talked about it one after another. Reopening the supervision and customs soon became the second hot topic in Chang''an City after the military parade.


    "In those days when Pei Ju opened the supervision and closed the city in Zhangye, Hu merchants from the whole western regions came to hear the news, and our businessmen in the Tang Dynasty were unwilling to lag behind. They gathered in Zhangye, and the silk price rose by 30% overnight. In a few years, Zhangye became an important town in the northwest, and the previous dynasty made a lot of profits." an old shopkeeper said with a nostalgic face. Those years were a feast for businessmen, As long as the merchants who went to Zhangye, whether Tang merchants or Hu merchants, all returned with full loads. Many famous merchants in Chang''an City developed and expanded in that period.


    However, the time of profiteering was too short. After the chaos in the late Sui Dynasty, the silk road was blocked again, and the status of Zhangye suddenly fell sharply, and soon declined. It was no longer the grand scene of that year. How can people be overjoyed by the reopening of the supervision and closure of the city this time.


    "It is said that not only Zhangye City will be opened this time, but there will be a monitoring city in cities adjacent to other countries to exchange needed goods with other countries, and its scale is several times that of the previous dynasty." an informed middle-aged businessman said excitedly.


    "Your Majesty''s great pen!" the people immediately sighed. Once many supervisors know that the customs and markets are open, a wealth feast will open soon, and the spring of Tang merchants will come.


    In an instant, all workshops in Chang''an city immediately expanded production and made preparations for the reopening of the customs and cities. The Southwest Industrial Zone and the industrial corridor from Mojia village to Chang''an City stayed up all night and worked overtime to prepare materials.


    With the continuous spread of news, the Datang silk system has gradually spread. After people gradually understand the benefits of Datang silk system, they can''t help but marvel at Merton''s wisdom.


    However, for other merchants, Jianzhi Customs was very beneficial and cheered one after another, but for silk merchants, it was an empty joy. They originally thought that after the silk road was unblocked, the value of silk would certainly double, but who would have thought that only silk from the weaving Bureau was allowed to circulate in Jianzhi customs, and silk from other places could not be sold in Jianzhi customs at all.


    "Lord Wei, you have to decide for us!" a group of silk merchants gathered in the Wei family in the south of the city, filled with indignation one by one.


    The Wei family in the south of the city is the largest cloth merchant in Chang''an City, mainly engaged in silk, which has a relationship with the Dynasty and China. Now the silk system of the Tang Dynasty has been announced, but the silk merchants have been excluded. How can they be reconciled.


    "Mozi really deceived people too much!" Lord Wei said angrily. Although the Tang Dynasty benefited from the Tang Dynasty silk system, it was proposed by Mozi. Naturally, Lord Wei didn''t dare to vent his resentment on the court and could only aim his resentment at Morton.


    "Lord Wei, you have something to do with the court. Can you let the court accommodate you?"


    "That is, since ancient times, officials have not striven for profits with the people. I''m afraid the imperial court''s move is inappropriate!"


    "In this way, I''m afraid we will suffer heavy losses!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of silk merchants prayed.


    Everyone knows that once the Datang silk system is implemented, the sales of silk will certainly rise sharply, which is obviously beneficial to these silk merchants. However, now the imperial court stipulates that the customs can only sell silk from the weaving Bureau. I''m afraid only raw silk will rise, and the benefit is the silk farmers, who have increased the cost in disguise.


    That is, businessmen all over the country benefited from the silk system of the Tang Dynasty, but they were happy in vain. Instead of making profits, they suffered losses.


    Master Wei naturally has more information than others. He naturally knows that the Datang silk system not only wants Datang to obtain more rights and interests in silk, but more importantly, it is to pave the way for the upcoming cotton era, so as to reduce the losses of mulberry farmers.


    Of course, Lord Wei couldn''t help Merton speak. Instead, he said: "This matter has been approved by three provinces and six ministries. What can I do? And as far as I know, the Mohist''s intention is more sinister. It not only excludes us from the Datang silk system, but also secretly cultivates baidiezi in the western regions. Now it has been successfully cultivated. In a few years, the Mohist village will unify Datang cloth. In time, there will be no place for our Datang silk merchant."


    "Bai diezi!"


    A group of silk merchants were surprised. In the market of Datang, the price of baidiezi was not inferior to that of silk. Naturally, everyone knew its value.


    It is well known that Merton offered a large reward for cotton seeds at the western regions event. Naturally, they have heard of it, but no one thought that the Mojia village would achieve results so soon.


    As for whether cotton is beneficial to the country and the people, they don''t care. However, Merton''s move has really further compressed the profit space of silk merchants. Cutting off people''s wealth is like killing their parents. How can these silk merchants not hate Merton in their hearts.


    "MOH family!" almost all the silk merchants said with gnashing teeth.


    Lord Wei''s heart is cold. Since the Mojia Zi has damaged his interests, don''t blame him for creating a group of enemies for the Mojia village.


    After seeing off a group of silk merchants, the Wei family leader couldn''t help thinking deeply. Other silk merchants were in a bad situation, and the Wei family also bore the brunt. Since the eldest son sold his printing and dyeing skills, the Wei family''s advantages have been lost. Now the revenue of the Silk Road has been wiped out by the imperial court, and the Wei family''s situation is even more difficult.


    "Father, what shall I do now?" wesan frowned and came in from the backyard.


    Lord Wei frowned and said, "in the short term, the silk price in Datang will be stable, and the Wei family will not suffer much damage. However, the Wei family also needs to take precautions and learn from the layout of cotton in Mojia village in advance."


    Wei Si''an was surprised and said, "the layout of cotton is now controlled by Mojia village. If we want to plant cotton, don''t we want to bow down to Mojia village."


    Lord Wei snorted coldly, "bow to Mojia village? That''s not necessarily!"


    When Wei Si settled down, he looked at his father incomprehensibly. The Lord of the Wei family stared at his son and asked, "where do you think the cotton seeds in Mojia village come from?"


    "Father said Gaochang and other countries!" Wei Si''an suddenly said.


    "Yes, the Royal envoy who went to Gaochang this time has an old relationship with the Wei family. My father has asked him to bring back a batch of cotton seeds for the Wei family in Gaochang. I believe there will be good news next year. When the Wei family also has cotton seeds, they will immediately search for famous craftsmen to crack the weaving skills of Mojia village. If the Mojia son doesn''t exaggerate, the income of cotton will be as good as that of silk." Master Wei''s eyes flashed. Those silk merchants only saw the continuous decline of the silk industry, but they didn''t realize that another huge industry of cloth merchants was about to rise. If the Wei family laid out in advance, they would have a lot of profits in the future.


    "Father is wise!" wesan suddenly realized that his father had such a way back.


    "By the way, father, there is news in Chang''an city that many dignitaries are ready to form a western regions chamber of Commerce and take the silk road. I don''t know if my father is interested." Wei Si''an said.


    "Chamber of Commerce in the western regions?" Lord Wei''s eyes lit up.

 Chapter 649

    Since the news that a group of Tang Dynasty imperial governors will be collectively sent to various countries and will be resident in various countries and sign credentials with them to ensure the safety of the silk road came, many dignitaries were immediately moved.


    It is well known that the profits of the silk road have been amazing all along. However, most of the Hu merchants came here at risk. Few people in the Tang Dynasty dared to take the silk road. Only the Mohist ancestors who claimed to have traveled to the Far West, and the other is monk Xuanzang who ventured to the west a few years ago. So far, I don''t know his life or death.


    One of them is an ancestor of Mohism, and the other is an eminent Buddhist monk. They are both fearless of life and death for their ideals. Ordinary people don''t want to be a dead bone under the long yellow sand.


    However, today, the situation has changed greatly. Once the imperial Shi of the Tang Dynasty is stationed in various countries, the safety of the merchants of the Tang Dynasty will be greatly guaranteed. In particular, some dignitaries in Chang''an city are familiar with the officials of the Ministry of rites. These Imperial Envoys will give priority to their interests


    The pursuit of interests, the existence of the imperial envoy of Datang, and the self-confidence brought by Datang''s strong national strength gave birth to the idea of many dignitaries going to the silk road. However, individual dignitaries naturally dare not easily take risks. Only the major dignitaries unite to form a huge caravan, which can help each other and bear risks together.


    "Who is the leader?" asked Lord Wei.


    Wei Si''an said positively, "Chai family, Chai Lingwu!"


    "Unexpectedly, the Chai family pushed him to the table!" master Wei mused.


    Wei Si''an thought for a moment and said, "after the military parade, the momentum of the Chai family has soared. Among the countries in the western regions, Chai zhewei, his eldest brother, is among them. It is reasonable for the Chai family to take the lead. It is said that many Guanlong aristocratic families have responded one after another."


    Harnessing the Yellow River will greatly weaken the interests of the Guanlong family. In order to find a way out, how can the Guanlong family let go of such rich oil and water as the Silk Road.


    "You go and get in touch first. If this is successful, the Wei family can''t fall behind." the Wei family leader can''t wait to say. Now the Wei family has been sniped by the Mojia village many times, and their money and food have been greatly reduced. How can we miss such profitable things as the chamber of Commerce in the western regions.


    "Yes!"


    Wei Si''an reluctantly nodded. Now his official career of the Wei family has been interrupted. It is most appropriate for him to do business. I didn''t see that most of these aristocratic families are the second sons of the family.


    I don''t know if it''s the bad habit of dandies. This time, the place where the western regions chamber of Commerce was discussed was also in the education department workshop. When wesan arrived at the education department workshop, he happened to see an unexpected figure.


    "Mojia Zi!" Wei Si''an frowned. He didn''t expect Chai Lingwu to invite Mojia Zi to the western regions chamber of Commerce. However, it''s reasonable to think about it. If the younger generation of Mojia Zi is rich, no one will be around. With the participation of Mojia Zi, the success rate of the western regions chamber of Commerce will double.


    "Brother Mo, I''ll give my younger brother a face this time. If I can''t, I''ll leave later." Fang Yiai, who is on the side, pestered and beat. The reason why Merton came this time is that Fang Er came to the door himself.


    "You''re the second son of the house. Why are you involved in these things!" Merton said helplessly.


    Young master Fang Er suddenly had a strange way of yin and Yang: "your brother Mo waved the earth like gold. Who doesn''t want to envy the whole Chang''an city. However, the full man doesn''t know that the evil man is hungry. I''m afraid I don''t have the face to go out by relying solely on the monthly money of the house."


    Qin Huaiyu holds the shares of Mohist food city. The annual distribution of Chengdu is envious. Only his second house is the most depressed. Although the house does not lack his money, it is impossible to be extravagant.


    Merton looked at Fang Yiai in surprise and said, "you''re not afraid of Fang Xiang''s blame!"


    "Do you think this is the work of a family? This has been tacitly approved by the dignitaries of Chang''an. Civil officials pave the way, military officials come out and jointly invest. Besides, we are not making money for the people, and my father has no reason to object." Fang Yiai is full of confidence.


    Merton suddenly realized that this time the imperial court was too embarrassed to eat, and directly swallowed all the profits of silk. Only then did he acquiesce in the establishment of the chamber of Commerce in the western regions, which was also a kind of compensation.


    "Brother Mo''s coming, I''m sorry to meet you. I''m disrespectful!" Chai Lingwu, who had already received the news, directly came forward and said with a warm face.


    "Brother Chai invited me warmly. How dare I not give face!" Merton was already familiar with the hypocrisy of officialdom and said politely.


    Chai Lingwu was even more enthusiastic when he heard the speech and said, "brother Mo, brother Fang, please come in! All the brothers inside have been waiting for a long time."


    Entering the education department workshop, Chai Lingwu directly wrapped up a courtyard. On the high platform in the courtyard, several charming dancers danced beautifully, the sound of silk and bamboo continued, and the surrounding square tables were full of fine wine and delicacies. Merton looked around and saw that most of the people sitting were young men in royal clothes who didn''t know Wei Si''an.


    Fang Er explained in a low voice: "most of the people who come are the second sons of their families. The real people will appear only when they make a real decision."


    Merton suddenly realized that he was the only one who could make decisions in Mojia village. He had to come today.


    Merton was not familiar with everyone, but everyone was very warm to Merton. When they saw Merton coming in, they nodded and greeted him. After a while, Merton met a large number of dandies in Chang''an city.


    Soon, the people who should come had arrived. Chai Lingwu waved his hand and immediately all the dancers evacuated one after another. Only a group of dignitaries are left here.


    "I believe you all understand the purpose of calling you here, little brother. The silk road has always been controlled by Hu merchants, but our Datang has gained little. Now our Datang imperial historian has settled in the motherland, and the time is ripe for us to enter the silk road!" Chai Lingwu looked around.


    Many children of dignitaries nodded one after another. They were willing to come today. Obviously, they were excited about the silk road.


    "Of course, the opportunity we can have today depends entirely on the Tang silk system envisaged by brother mo." Chai Lingwu said, and everyone immediately focused on Merton.


    "At the same time, brother Mo is also the famous God of wealth in the Tang Dynasty. The means of turning stone into gold is admirable. I want to ask brother Mo whether this business can be done!" Chai Lingwu solemnly saluted to Merton, and immediately other powerful children were also breathing.


    Feeling the hot eyes of the people, Merton realized that Chai Lingwu must come for the purpose of endorsing the western region chamber of Commerce.


    Merton said reluctantly, "as long as you can ensure safety and safe return along the way, you will naturally make no loss!"


    When Merton finished, all the powerful children cheered.


    Chai Lingwu suddenly showed a satisfied smile. As long as he can make money, the western regions chamber of Commerce will certainly be able to do it.


    "Brother Mo, don''t worry. We will enter the countries that have signed the credentials with us in the Tang Dynasty and won''t get involved easily. However, my younger brother has little talent and knowledge. If brother Mo can personally guide the chamber of Commerce in the western regions, we will voluntarily offer 10% of the dry shares in return." Chai Lingwu looked at Merton and said positively.


    All of us were breathless at once. The chamber of Commerce in the western regions gathered so many contacts and wealth. The financial resources must be very strong, and the future income must be unpredictable. Chai Lingwu directly offered 10% of the shares, which was an amazing wealth.


    However, no one refuted it, because the wealth myth of Mojia village is there. The western region chamber of commerce with and without Merton is basically two different concepts.


    Merton looked at Chai Lingwu unexpectedly, shook his head firmly and said, "Mo is an official of the imperial court. Naturally, it is inconvenient to join the chamber of Commerce in the western regions, and the Mojia village will not participate."


    "Why, didn''t brother Mo just say that taking the silk road is a sure bet?" a powerful son asked.


    Merton nodded: "although the silk road is profiteering, the cycle is too long. The Mojia village is very short of manpower. I''m afraid it won''t be able to draw manpower for a while and a half. Moreover, the focus of the Mojia village is Datang country, which will never change."


    As for the excuse of the shortage of manpower in the Mojia village, people naturally won''t believe it. However, Merton clearly refused 10% of the shares, which made people have a little more goodwill towards him. After all, if Merton accounts for more, it will directly squeeze the share of other aristocratic families in a disguised form. People involved in interests will not be soft hearted.


    "Brother Mo, I admire Gao Yi!" Chai Lingwu said with a look of admiration. Chai Lingwu doesn''t know whether it''s a pity or a sigh of relief. The Chai family contributed to this. If they made a wedding dress for Merton, they wouldn''t be busy in vain.


    The crowd nodded one after another and threw high hats at Merton like no money.


    "But we also want to ask brother Mo to give up his love for this thing. With this thing, the chamber of Commerce in the western regions will be unimpeded." Chai Lingwu changed his voice.


    Merton frowned and couldn''t help but look at Fang Yiai next to him. Fang Yiai couldn''t hide it by drinking tea with a guilty heart. It was obvious that they had planned for a long time.


    "Brother Chai, I don''t know what you like?" Merton said quietly.


    "That''s the treasure of mohou in the desert during the western expedition." Chai Lingwu said positively.


    "Compass!"


    Merton suddenly realized that Merton had used a compass in front of thousands of soldiers. Naturally, this matter could not be concealed from some interested people. Yellow sand was everywhere on the silk road. If he lost his way, it would be fatal. With a compass, the chamber of Commerce of the western regions had the strength to walk in the desert.


    "Brother Mo, just help me this time. This is the key to our success or failure." Fang Yiai begged. Before that, he promised to get a compass, which is the most important reason why he asked Merton to come.


    "Brother Mo asks for this, but I will never bargain!" Chai Lingwu said without hesitation.


    Merton couldn''t help thinking for a while. The role of the compass is big and small. Sometimes it''s not necessary at all. It can only play a miraculous effect at a specific time. Moreover, with Si Nanzhu jade in front, there is no need to keep it secret.


    Merton nodded and said, "there''s no need to say the price. If the Western Chamber of Commerce returns with a full load in the future, it''s good for the country and the people to donate a sum of money to the Red Cross."


    Chailing Wudang said without hesitation, "this is nature."


    "Well, ten days later, the compass will be sent to Chai mansion. I''ll leave!" Merton saw that he didn''t need to stay here, so he immediately got up and left.


    Refusing to send Chai Lingwu away, Merton strode out of the education department workshop and couldn''t help sighing for a while. Because of his butterfly effect, he had set off such a storm in Datang. Unexpectedly, the western region chamber of Commerce similar to the later East India Company appeared in Datang.


    The money on the silk road is not clean, which is also the reason why Merton is unwilling to have too much involvement with the western regions chamber of Commerce. However, he knows that this gray transaction exists in any era. He is looking forward to the development of the western regions chamber of Commerce!

 Chapter 650

    Merton walked out of the education department square, and the carriage walked on the street of Chang''an city. The street of Chang''an city was as prosperous as ever, and the people came in an endless stream. Merton heard all the talk about the smooth silk road and all the excitement.


    "Restless Chang''an city!" Merton couldn''t help sighing. Across the carriage, he felt the fanatical business atmosphere and the pursuit of wealth in the Tang Dynasty, from the top officials and nobles to the common people.


    It''s not just Chai Lingwu and others who think about the silk road. How can ordinary people not envy the overnight wealth of the Silk Road.


    "When the news of the smooth silk road comes, everyone in the world is not excited. As long as they have ideas, they all want to cut a piece of this fat meat." tie an sighed outside the carriage.


    Merton nodded. This is only Chang''an city. If the news spread in a few days, I believe the whole Datang will be a sensation. Who doesn''t like the myth of getting rich overnight? With the Imperial Envoys of the Tang Dynasty in the western regions, the security of Tang businessmen is greatly guaranteed. As long as people have a desire for wealth, they will certainly be tempted. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty has never lacked these adventurers, which is also the reason why Chai Lingwu responds.


    Therefore, Merton is very optimistic about the future of the chamber of Commerce in the western regions, but the Mohist village is the foundation of Mohism. Prospering Mohism with industry will never change. If the Mohist village wants to take the Silk Road to make huge profits, it will put the cart before the horse.


    Moreover, the most important thing for Mojia village is to reverse the current dilemma and stand out in the fierce competition. Merton was thinking hard about countermeasures when he suddenly heard the voice of a Confucian newspaper boy outside the window.


    "Sell the newspaper! Mojia village is heavily in debt and is about to close down!"


    "The first village in the world has no real name!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the sound of the newsboy''s Hawking, there was an uproar in Chang''an city. Countless people gathered around and asked incredulously, "little NEWSBOY, are you wrong? Mojia village is the first village in the world sealed by your majesty. You have to file a lawsuit like this."


    The newsboy raised his head and said, "how can you pronounce it wrong? That''s what the newspaper says."


    "Show it to me!" a businessman couldn''t wait. He handed over a penny in his hand.


    "Give me one too!"


    For a moment. Many people came forward to buy, but Mojia village was personally granted the first village in the world by Mojia village, and Mojia Zi was at the height of the sun, building the Datang silk system and shocking the world. However, at this critical moment, it was surprising that the news of the debt of Mojia village broke out.


    "It''s impossible! Mojia village is the first village in the world. If all villages have households, how can they close down!"


    "The Mohist village is the richest in the world. It is well known all over the world. How can it be heavily in debt in a short time."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When they picked up the Confucian journal, they really reported that Mojia village was heavily in debt, and they couldn''t help talking.


    However, the words of the Confucian journal are conclusive, and the detailed data are listed one by one, which makes people exclaim. Although the Confucian journal may be suspected of exaggeration, people with clear eyes can see that today''s Mojia village is indeed a serious problem.


    "Mohist village is still too shallow!" an old man could not help frowning.


    "In my opinion, it''s nothing. As long as there are Mojia Zi, Mojia village will not be a big problem!" one by one of Merton''s fans said firmly.


    "Hum! In my opinion, even the Mohist family is now unable to protect themselves. I heard that Merton promised to marry Princess Changle with a thousand good horses and ten thousand liang of gold. Seeing that Princess Changle is about to turn 16, I think the Mohist family is dead." a Confucian student couldn''t help humming coldly.


    Many people in the world like Merton and look down on Mohists, especially Confucian students are biased against Merton. Hearing that Merton and Mojia village were unlucky, they immediately fell into the well one by one.


    The whole Chang''an city is full of fryers, one after another asking about the current situation of Mojia village,


    The leakage of ink skills, the struggle between the two veins of Xiangli and Xiangfu, and the plight of Mojia village. Soon, the plight of Mojia village was quickly picked out by the public.


    In particular, the news of the struggle between the two veins of the Mohist school is vivid and vivid.


    "Young master!" tiean quickly stopped the carriage and whispered.


    Merton frowned and said, "tie an, go buy a Confucian journal!"


    Tiean took the order and soon came over with a Confucian journal. Merton took it and looked at the eye-catching titles. He couldn''t help frowning. He endured to read all the contents of the Confucian journal. After reading it, his face was as gloomy as water.


    "Young master, most of the Confucian journals catch wind and shadow. Young master, don''t care." tie an comforted.


    "Although the Confucian journal is making rumors, it guesses that it is not far from ten, exposing the difficulties of Mohist village one by one. It''s difficult for Mohist village to pass this level!" Merton sighed.


    "With a young master, Mojia village will naturally stand." tie an said confidently.


    Merton shook his head and said, "I won''t help the Mojia village if I can''t get through the difficulties this time. Moreover, the Mojia village has such a big deficit that I can''t get so much money for a moment."


    Mojia village is a new thing. It has developed too fast and has a weak foundation. Under the command of Merton, it has not gone through wind and waves. This time, it is a test of Mojia village, and Merton believes that Mojia village will not be so vulnerable.


    "Let''s go! Go back to the ink house first!" Merton waved his big hand, and the carriage immediately sped away from the ink house.


    When Merton arrived at the Mo mansion, Fu BoMo San, Master Li and Xu Jie had already waited anxiously at the door with Confucian journals.


    "Young master!" seeing Merton getting off the bus, the five people hurriedly greeted him.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "I already know about Confucianism. Go back to the house!"


    Mo mansion living room! There was a silence among the five.


    "I failed to live up to the expectations of the marquis. Please punish me!"


    As soon as Xu Jie grits his teeth, he suddenly comes forward. He is the foreign affairs manager of Mojia village. Now he has unshirkable responsibility for the plight of Mojia village.


    Merton knocked on the table, shook his head and said, "I don''t want to listen to any shirking of responsibility at this time. What I want is the way for Mojia village to get through this pass."


    Xu Jie glanced at Fu Bo and suddenly nodded: "Lord Hui, in fact, the behavior of Mojia village has greatly improved since the young master wanted to assess the industry of Mojia village at the end of the year. At the moment, our first method is to restore the reputation of Mojia village. First, Mojia magazine published the current situation of Mojia village to the public. Many industries have turned losses into profits. Even though Mojia village has a lot of debts, it still has the ability to repay."


    "This matter will be done later!" Mo San said immediately.


    Merton nodded. As long as you give Mojia village time, I believe it will be able to reverse the situation. However, I''m afraid there is not much time left for Mojia village at the moment.


    "This is the first step. However, if Mojia village wants to get rid of the dilemma, the most important thing is not only to turn losses into profits, but also to increase revenue and reduce expenditure!" Xu Jie said word by word.


    "Increase revenue and reduce expenditure!"


    The people''s eyes immediately focused on Xu Jie.

 Chapter 651

    Xu Jie frowned and said, "previously, our Mojia village had countless secret skills and produced unparalleled goods. Our Mojia village sat on the Diaoyutai and made a lot of profits, but now our Mojia village''s Secret skills have leaked..."


    Xu Jie didn''t finish, but Merton understood what he meant. The unique advantages of Mojia village have disappeared. Although the goods of other workshops can''t compare with Mojia village, the price is cheap, and the advantages of Mojia village have been greatly reduced. However, the original plan was implemented without discount, and the expenditure is greater than the income, so it is naturally heavily in debt.


    "There are too many places to spend money in Mojia village now! Some extremely expensive projects must be suspended." Xu Jie looked firmly at Li. Among them, the establishment of Mr. Li''s compulsory education school is not a small expenditure.


    When Master Li heard the string, he nodded without hesitation and said, "this is nature. Now the Mojia village is in crisis, how can I be ignorant."


    It is Mojia village that is the biggest financier of supporting Mr. Li to build school buildings. Now that Mojia village is in danger, Mr. Li naturally reciprocates. If Mojia village really collapses, his compulsory education may soon die! No one will invest money in it at all. The best outcome is that other Confucianism will take over it, and even directly annihilate it in history.


    Moreover, Merton has not made a move on this matter, just to let the Mojia village get through the difficulties. He believes that if it really comes to the critical moment of Mojia village''s life and death, how can Merton sit back and watch the Mojia village fall into crisis.


    "Master, don''t worry. When Mojia village passes this pass, you will continue to support master''s great cause!" Merton nodded.


    "There are also transportation teams and the construction of Mojia village to save money!" Xu Jie said. These two are the biggest gold eaters in Mojia village, which is the reason for the large-scale deficit in Mojia village.


    Forberton nodded repeatedly. These two places occupied a lot of money in Mojia village. It wouldn''t hurt to pause for a while.


    "This is saving money. In addition to these three aspects, all aspects of Mojia village should save food and clothing to tide over this difficulty." Xu Jie said.


    "This is nature!" Merton nodded.


    "As for open source, before that, I thought the silk road was a heaven given opportunity for Mojia village, but the young master rejected it." Xu Jie said helplessly.


    Xu Jie couldn''t help feeling a little aggrieved. Merton contributed the most to the smooth silk road, but Mojia village benefited little and missed a good opportunity.


    Merton smiled and said, "you can rest assured that although the Mohist village does not take the Silk Road, it does not mean that the Mohist village gives up the silk road. Mohist goods are sold to Jianzhi customs and sold all over the state of Tang and Zhou. This is not a way out."


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "among the goods produced by Mohism, only the glass technology has not leaked, and it is still the only one in our Tang Dynasty. However, the status of the elderly in western countries is low, and the profits of presbyopic glasses and myopia glasses are limited. I don''t know whether the young master can make wine and tea sets out of glass. I believe they can sell well. It will add a source of wealth to our Mohist village!"


    When Xu Jie finished, he couldn''t help smiling proudly. This was the countermeasure he thought hard for Mojia village. He had long seen that the future of glass was more than that. The market of reading glasses and myopia glasses was close to saturation. Once the wine and tea sets made of glass were released, he believed that they would surely bring a steady stream of income to Mojia village, which was called the new industrial pillar of Mojia village.


    "Wonderful!" Master Li couldn''t help exclaiming. He loved drinking most on weekdays. If he could use crystal clear glass wine utensils, it would certainly be a great enjoyment in life. He believed that once this wine utensil came out, it would certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty.


    "It can also be made into a water cup!" Merton said. Many people in the world love drinking and tea, but drinking water is indispensable for everyone. Everyone needs drinking water. Its market is naturally huge. This is the largest market.


    "Young master, wise!" Xu Jie''s eyes lit up, which he had ignored before.


    Even Fubo couldn''t help showing a trace of excitement. He was still worried about the situation of Mojia village. After Xu Jie''s analysis, it was not far to solve the plight of Mojia village by increasing revenue and reducing expenditure. He was suddenly relieved.


    "I still have an open source method. I don''t know what to say?" Xu Jie looked at Merton and hesitated.


    "But it doesn''t matter!" Merton looked at Xu Jie with a puzzled look.


    "This year, Mojia village has harvested nearly 1000 mu of cotton, occupying a lot of warehouses, and it is said that Hou Ye has ordered a large number of cotton from Gaochang and other countries to be transported. However, these cotton have always existed in Mojia village, which is full of warehouses and occupies a lot of funds. Boy knows that Hou Ye has great plans. However, now the Datang silk system is about to be completed, and our Datang silk has been sold Road, not as good as...... "


    Xu Jie didn''t finish, but Merton understood what he meant. Selling these cotton at the moment will not affect the silk plan of the imperial court, but also alleviate the crisis of Mojia village.


    "According to the news, the slander against Mojia village was secretly made by the silk merchants led by the Wei family..." Xu Jie said again, gritting his teeth.


    Merton couldn''t help but snort coldly. Although he didn''t let the silk merchants earn money from the Silk Road, he indirectly saved the silk market, and these people didn''t appreciate it, and even thanked the enemy with kindness.


    "You can sell and give priority to making cotton clothes and quilts." since these silk merchants don''t appreciate it, don''t blame him for accelerating the promotion of cotton. I believe that once cotton clothes and quilts are launched, the value of cotton will be immediately known to the world. Cotton will immediately become the most important cash crop in the Tang Dynasty. Everyone will compete to plant it, and the time to stay as a silk merchant will be greatly reduced.


    "Fubo, I''ll send an order to Mojia village and comprehensively rectify Mojia village according to shopkeeper Xu''s plan!" Merton got up and said in a loud voice.


    Fubo nodded and was about to leave. Xu Jie suddenly said again, "opening up sources and reducing expenditure will not be effective in a short time, but there are already many payments to be made in Mojia village, which is the urgent need of Mojia village at present."


    "Multiple payments?" Merton waved his hand and said, "it''s easy to do. Before the imperial court built brick roads, Mojia village once bought 50000 Guan treasury bonds. Now it''s time to use them. Someone can use this treasury bond to offset the account!"


    The national debt was issued by the imperial court. Of course, its credit is needless to say, let alone the interest. With the investment of 50000 national debt, Mojia village can support it until it is effective to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.


    "Young master, wise!" Xu Jie bowed. In this way, the crisis in Mojia village was solved.


    Other people were also delighted. After all, Mojia village is the foundation of people''s deep-rooted life, and after this battle, Mojia village will certainly eat one to grow wisdom and grow up rapidly.

 Chapter 652

    When Mojia village was discussing countermeasures, the outside world was surging. With the spread of intentional people, the news of the collapse of Mojia village quickly spread all over Chang''an City and flew towards the people.


    The Wei family, the Wei family leader and Wei Sian looked at their achievements with satisfaction and couldn''t help showing a proud smile.


    "The trees fall and the monkeys scatter! This time I think the Mojia village is doomed." Leng humed the head of the Wei family. The Wei family and the Mojia village have deep resentment. Seeing that the Mojia village is unlucky, they are naturally happy to gloat over the misfortune.


    "My father is wise. He will find countless opponents for Mojia village as soon as he transfers!" weisi''an complimented.


    Master Wei smiled proudly and said, "do you think a few silk merchants can deal with Mojia village? The sudden rise of Mojia village has harmed the interests of many people. Being a father just provides them with an opportunity to encircle and suppress Mojia village."


    "Father, you mean someone else really attacked Mojia village!" Wei Si''an was shocked and looked at Wei''s master in surprise.


    Lord Wei nodded and said, "now the secret skills of Mojia village have leaked out, and most aristocratic families have controlled the secret skills. Although it is not as good as Mojia village, it is not far away. The so-called fighting mien and promoting Mi hatred, let alone the source of these ink skills is very disgraceful. The existence of Mojia village makes many people feel embarrassed, and many people think that the industry of Mojia village is no longer necessary."


    The great wealth collection ability of Mohist secret technology has made many people realize its importance. How can we easily let go of Mohist village.


    "This..."


    Wei Si''an couldn''t believe it. He didn''t expect that the ultimate attack force was the person who benefited the most from Mojia village.


    "This is the heart of the people!" said master Wei meaningfully.


    Weisi was silent for a long time. Although he hated Mojia village, he was still young and couldn''t accept this behavior.


    "Master, young master! The ink magazine has been published and is really defending the Mojia village!" suddenly a servant of the Wei family came in a hurry and handed over two copies of the ink magazine.


    "Sure enough, not what my father expected!" weisi''an complimented. They were waiting here to see what the Mohists had to do.


    "What''s the use of justification? The reports of Confucian journals have been preconceived, and the ink journals are weak in refuting." Wei didn''t care.


    Wei Si''an looked at the content of the ink magazine and said in a surprised voice: "no, I''m afraid the Mojia village is not so easy to deal with!"


    "Increase revenue and reduce expenditure!"


    When Lord Wei took over the ink magazine, his face changed.


    "And the situation in Mojia village is getting better!" Wei Si''an frowned at Mojia magazine. According to the self exposure of Mojia magazine, all businesses in Mojia village are getting better. Even if Mojia village owes much debt, as long as we give Mojia village some time, it will be able to get better and pay it back one by one.


    Master Wei''s face coagulated and said, "since Mojia Zi came back from the front line, Mojia village has been saving itself. If we start in advance, I''m afraid the effect will be better!"


    Wei Sian shook his head and said, "at that time, the imperial court and the whole country were preparing for the military parade. No trouble was allowed. This has been delayed until now."


    "That''s all right!" Wei''s master Leng hum said, "if Mojia village wants to save itself, it depends on whether those people give Mojia village a chance."


    Wei Sian nodded solemnly, but he knew that most of these workshops were supported by aristocratic families. These were people who ate people and didn''t spit bones. It''s not easy to catch the flaw of Mojia village. How can you stop easily.


    Wei Si''an was in control of the Confucian journal and was very well informed. He soon heard the news about the Mojia village from Chang''an city.


    "Lin''s car and horse shop reduced the price by 20%,..."


    "Zhangjia pot shop reduced the price by 20.5%,..."


    The first action is the workshop in the southeast industrial zone. The prices of goods similar to those in Mojia village fall across the board and compete directly with each other.


    Subsequently, foreign merchants also took action one after another. A large number of Shudi fine wines entered Chang''an city with high quality and low price, solving thousands of worries, a large number of unsalable, and Yuncheng fine salt promotion


    Moreover, the momentum of this collective encirclement and suppression of Mojia village spread rapidly from Chang''an City, and almost all workshops joined hands to snipe at Mojia village.


    Almost at the same time, there was a large backlog of goods in Mojia village. The form faced by Mojia village suddenly became tense. Everyone can see that the form of Mojia village is extremely difficult. I''m afraid it won''t last long.


    "Hahaha! If you let the Mojia Zi use all the means, you can''t save the Mojia village!" people in the dark met one after another, excited one by one, and wanted to see the jokes of the Mojia village.


    "Xu Jie is really unlucky. His Xu firm went bankrupt once and took refuge in Mojia village. I''m afraid Mojia village can''t survive this pass." some people in the mall laughed.


    More people are silent and choose to wait and see. Mojia village and these workshops are giants. Immortals fight and mortals suffer. They don''t like to touch the head of mildew.


    "These villains, their purpose is to squeeze the cash flow of Mojia village!" Xu Jie was furious. He still misestimated the behavior of Mojia village. This time, the other party came prepared. I''m afraid it won''t let Mojia village get through this easily.


    Moreover, the other party didn''t use the Yin move, but used the move of killing the enemy by 800 and losing one thousand. He wanted to bring down Mojia village and didn''t give Mojia village time to breathe. He once deeply felt the powerlessness of being attacked by the group. Last time, his Xu firm had no ability to fight back and was defeated. This time, he would never allow this phenomenon to happen again.


    "The special issue of Ink magazine has been issued, which has somewhat stabilized people''s hearts, but the business community in Chang''an City has too little buffer time for Mojia village!" Fubo frowned.


    "Young master, what do you say?" Li Yi said anxiously. When he learned that the report of the Confucian Journal came in a hurry and discussed countermeasures with Xu Jie, but he didn''t even see the young master''s face.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "young master, it has been made clear that he will not help this time. He has asked Princess Changle to go out together."


    "Ah! The young master really thinks highly of us!" Li Yi said with a bitter smile. They gathered in Mo mansion and were as anxious as hot pot ants, and Merton was still interested in playing, but Merton''s calm attitude made Li Yi and others gradually settle down.


    "Why don''t we lower the price? The goods in Mojia village are of high quality. I believe that under the same price, people will naturally choose the goods in Mojia village." Li Yi said in his heart.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "if we reduce the price by a large margin at this time, I''m afraid it''s right for these people! It will greatly reduce the income of Mojia village, and the cost of goods in Mojia village is generally higher than them. Low price competition is not desirable."


    "In your opinion!" Li Yi said in distress.


    Xu Jie thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea and said, "no, what if we use the young master''s old plan!"


    The crowd immediately looked at Xu Jie and didn''t understand what he meant.


    Xu Jie explained: "the world thinks that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley! But the young master thinks that the fragrance of wine is also afraid of the depth of the alley, so he finds Gongsun Yue to speak for Qianchou and walk around the world to publicize. Only in this way can he know the reputation of Qianchou, the best wine in the world!"


    Li yiruo thought, "you mean to let the world know that the products of our Mojia village are excellent."


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "the products of Mojia village are generally better than other workshops, and what Mojia village needs to do is to let the people all over the world know this gap. Mojia village does not compete with other workshops for price, but for quality. As long as the world knows that the products of our Mojia village are better and stronger than other workshops, it may not be without the power of a war."


    "Now, it''s the only way!" Li Yi clenched his teeth.


    "Also, since other workshops have reduced prices, it''s unreasonable for our Mojia village not to reduce prices, so we can reduce the price by half." Xu Jie finally said.


    "Well, that''s settled. If someone wants to see the jokes of Mojia village, it depends on whether he has this strength." Li Yi said sonorously.


    "Mojia village will not be defeated!" Xu Jie promised.


    "Mohism will not be defeated!" Li Yi said firmly.

 Chapter 653

    The prevalence of brick road makes everyone realize that an unprecedented traffic reform is about to begin. Everyone wants to take a share in the brick road. Large merchants have moved their workshops to both sides of the brick road, while small merchants want to buy a four-wheel carriage to do a small business, and the family has no worries about food and clothing.


    However, the price of four-wheel carriage is not cheap, and not everyone can afford it. Many people are willing to start, but they are unable to bear such a high price.


    In the east city, the sound of Hawking immediately attracted the attention of many people,


    "Big price reduction! The four-wheel carriage of Lin''s car and horse shop is big price reduction!"


    Soon, the carriage price of Lin''s car and horse shop came, and the low price immediately surprised many people. At the moment, the price of four-wheel carriage has broken through everyone''s psychological price, and many people can''t help but feel excited.


    Zhu Jun is one of the people. He is a merchant in Chang''an County. He is very optimistic about the prospect of brick road. He has long wanted to change his small scooter and a four-wheel carriage with huge freight volume. He can''t help but be greatly moved to hear that the four-wheel carriage has been reduced in price.


    "The performance of the carriage in Lin''s car shop is comparable to that in Mojia village, but the price is only about half of it. What hesitation do you have? There will be no shop after this village."


    The price of Lin''s carriage was originally low, and the price was reduced by 20%, which was almost half the price of the carriage in Mojia village. Such a huge price advantage naturally attracted many people.


    "Lin''s family started in Chang''an city. The price is reasonable. It''s an old brand."


    "Such a price is indeed the price of conscience!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people talked one after another. Zhu Jun saw that many people paid for a carriage on the spot and left happily.


    Just when Zhu Jun couldn''t help it, suddenly there was a noise across the street.


    "What''s the matter?" the people wondered one after another.


    "It seems that Mojia village is advertising for a four wheeled carriage!" said an insider.


    Zhu Jun''s heart moved and compared goods. Since he came to see the carriage in Mojia village, he hurried across the street. There were many people with the same ideas as Zhu Jun. after a while, the onlookers in Lin''s car and horse line suddenly lost more than half.


    "You stare here, I''ll go and have a look." master Lin ordered the servant, so he rushed over with the shopkeeper and a servant with a gloomy face.


    Before the rise of Mojia village, Lin''s car company was the leader of the carriage industry in Chang''an city. However, the sudden rise of Mojia village, a four-wheel carriage directly hit the carriage industry of Lin''s car company.


    At this moment, Lin''s car shop finally has the opportunity to turn over. How can he easily let go of Mojia village and naturally join the camp of encircling and suppressing four-wheel carriages without hesitation. As long as Mojia village declines, his Lin''s car shop will certainly be able to make a comeback.


    When master Lin came to the Mohist boutique, he saw that he had never seen a carriage at all, but that the ground was full of parts, and he was full of doubts.


    "Please look, all the wood of the carriage in Mojia village is the most top wood, and all of them have undergone special anti-corrosion treatment and sprayed with open paint, which is strong, durable and beautiful." outside the Mojia boutique, Li Xin said proudly. At the moment when Mojia village is in danger, Li Xin naturally takes the train and horse in person.


    Everyone nodded. They had just come from Lin''s car shop. They could tell by the naked eye that the materials used by the Mohist school are really much better!


    The Lin family leader hummed in his heart and said with a sneer, "what''s the matter with good materials? If Lin''s car shop can sell so expensive, the materials are better than this!"


    "This is one of the advantages of our Mohist carriage. In addition, our Mohist carriage adopts nut structure, not the traditional Falcon Mou structure." Li Xin said, picking up a screw and nut to demonstrate the role of the nut to the public.


    "As far as we know, the structure of this nut is not as exquisite as that of Falcon Mou!" a neighbor shouted under the sign of Lin''s master.


    People also nodded one after another. The tenon and mortise structure is the soul of traditional carpenters. Naturally, people have deep trust in tenon and mortise, but they don''t know much about the nut that just appeared.


    With a flash of expression, Li Xin nodded without hesitation and said, "although the nut structure is no more exquisite than that of Falcon Mou, it is faster and stronger."


    As soon as Li Xin waved his hand, the four mojiazi came forward, immediately picked up the nuts and assembled the four-wheel carriage on the spot. Almost at the speed visible to the naked eye, a brand-new four-wheel carriage appeared in front of everyone. The whole process was no more than a quarter of an hour.


    "So fast!" the crowd exclaimed.


    The master of Lin family also had a flash in his eyes. When Xiangfu''s family cracked the secret skills of Mohism, the only difficulty was the nut structure. The nut structure was clear and easy to understand. However, its technology was extremely difficult. At present, people were not able to make it. They didn''t expect to let the Mohist village seize this loophole and have a fight at this time.


    "Similarly, if you buy a carriage in Mojia village, if there is a problem when driving, you can remove it and repair it in the shortest time. If the board is worn, just tighten the nuts. These are not comparable to the tenon and mortise structure," Li Xin said proudly.


    Everyone was silent. Most of them bought four-wheel carriages frequently. Once there was a problem, they could repair it in the shortest time. The advantage is too obvious.


    Even the Lin family leader has to admit that the carriage in Mojia village is indeed better than the Lin family carriage, but even if it is good, it is limited. He was not worried at all because he had a huge price advantage.


    "In addition, the wheels of Mojia village use ball bearings, which is more labor-saving and faster." Li Xin said. The two Mojia children set up a wheel. When Li Xin turned hard, the wheel suddenly turned quickly and stopped after a long time.


    "When can I crack the ball bearing on the wheels of Lin''s car and horse?" the owner of the Lin family said with a gloomy face.


    The shopkeeper of Lin''s car shop couldn''t help but say with a dry face: "home owner, the process of producing steel balls is extremely complex. Although it can be produced by the supervisor, it can only be supplied to the military. It''s not sold at all. We can''t get it at all."


    Master Lin couldn''t help but feel embarrassed. They thought they had learned the skills of Mojia village, but they didn''t expect to be trapped on small nuts and steel balls,


    "The biggest advantage of ball bearing is labor saving. With ball bearing, even three horses can easily pull 5000 kg of weight." under the command of Li Xin, the newly assembled four-wheel carriage was immediately filled with 5000 kg of weight in full view of the public. After the three horses were put on, the carriage easily began to slide with a little effort, and the speed became faster and faster, Soon disappeared into the street.


    "Wow!"


    The crowd exclaimed. Three horses can pull five thousand kilograms of weight, which is enough to prove the excellence of the Mohist carriage.


    "But I still suggest you continue to use four horses to pull the cart. After all, you can run farther and won''t hurt the horse," Li Xin said with a smile.


    People couldn''t help laughing. Their mood was very complicated. The carriage in Mojia village was good, but it was still too expensive.


    "Now the carriage in Mojia village is reduced by half. Welcome to buy." Li Xin finally did not forget to publicize the carriage.


    "Cut the price by half!" the owner of the Lin family breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, the price advantage of the Lin family''s carriage still exists.


    "Even if the price is reduced by half, the carriage of the Mohist school is still too expensive!" Zhu Jun shouted bravely, which could not help but arouse the resonance of many people.


    Li Xin didn''t care. "The quality of the carriage in Mojia village is here. You can see by comparison. However, if you are sincere about buying the carriage in Mojia village, you can pay half of the money in advance as long as it is a local origin. The rest of the money only needs to be paid back within two years, and it is interest free." Li Xin finally broke a strong news.


    "Half the money in advance!"


    Suddenly everyone was in an uproar and couldn''t help looking at each other. I couldn''t believe there were such good things.


    The owner and shopkeeper of the Lin family immediately looked pale. Half the price can buy a four-wheel carriage first. Isn''t that the same price as the Lin family carriage? Although the other half of the money still needs to be changed, it can give more people a chance. In this way, the advantage of the Lin family carriage is greatly reduced.


    At present, many people were very excited. Zhu Jun pinched his fingers and calculated that if he paid half of his money to buy the carriage in Mojia village, he would certainly be able to earn back the money he made in two years. In this way, he would not be embarrassed without having such a good carriage. In this way, it would be cost-effective.


    When Li Xin finished, many people immediately surrounded him and were obviously attracted by the carriage in Mojia village.


    If Merton were here, he would be stunned. He didn''t expect that Xu Jie and others could come up with the propaganda tactics and the idea of buying a car by stages in future generations

 Chapter 654

    The same thing happened again in major cities. Mojia village fought back against the encirclement and suppression of major workshops, not only four-wheel carriages, but also other products of Mojia village. All Mojia children rushed to various places and immediately launched a counterattack.


    However, the workshops are powerful and have abundant financial resources. Sometimes they even snipe at Mojia village at a loss. For a moment, the form of Mojia village is in danger,


    Both sides were full of gunpowder, and both sides did their best. The first large-scale commercial war in the history of the Tang Dynasty officially broke out. At the beginning, Mojia village was losing ground and suffered heavy losses. Fortunately, it was supported by the 50000 yuan national debt of Mojia village. The two sides are in anxiety. Although the major workshops have the upper hand, Mojia village has suspended all-round throttling and raised funds. It is equally tenacious. It is impossible to win it for a while.


    Just when the commercial war attracted much attention, the whereabouts of mojiazi even made everyone involved in their minds.


    "What is the Mohist school doing? There is no news yet?" the man in the dark asked impatiently.


    "It''s said that the Mohist family invited Princess Changle to visit the lotus garden today." a well-informed person said.


    "At this time, mojiazi is still in the mood to play!" the people immediately looked at each other.


    Furong garden is a royal garden in the Sui Dynasty. Since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the Furong garden has been expanding and opening to the outside world. It has become a gathering place for the royal family, dignitaries and civilians. With beautiful scenery and tourists, it is the only public park in Chang''an city.


    In the lotus garden, after the expansion of the two dynasties, the scenery is beautiful. Merton is now beautiful. Naturally, it is beautiful and beautiful, and the mood is very happy. It is not at all anxious about the formal crisis of the Mojia village. It looks like a black sheep.


    "Merton, do you think Mojia village can really hold up?"


    Merton was heartless, but Princess Changle looked worried. When she came to see the promotion slogans in Chang''an City, she couldn''t help worrying. After the advertising strategy of Mojia village worked, major workshops followed suit. Now everyone in the city knows the situation of Mojia village.


    Moreover, in the lotus garden, most of the tourists talk about the situation of Mojia village. It''s hard for Princess Changle to know.


    Merton smiled at the speech and said, "the people all over the world benefit from the commercial war between major workshops and Mojia village. What''s my reason to stop it? I''m afraid even the imperial court can''t come forward."


    It has to be said that the business war had a wide impact. The price of Chang''an city fell by almost 10%, and the trading volume increased sharply. Some workshops even lost money to win the market of Mojia village. However, all these ultimately benefited the people all over the world, even the whole court.


    Moreover, this time, the impact was so great that the imperial court didn''t come forward at all. Obviously, it was happy to see its success. This is also the strength for the major workshops to dare to encircle and suppress Mojia village.


    Hearing Merton''s explanation, Princess Changle suddenly realized.


    "But these workshops are obviously stealing the secret skills of Mojia village, which is why they are today. But they bite the hand that feeds them!" Princess Changle said angrily.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Datang''s market is so large. Once the major workshops get ink technology, they think they have a cash cow and invest in the construction of major workshops. Now there is overcapacity and low-price competition sooner or later! It''s just that they choose the weakest time in Mojia village with the promotion of intentional people!"


    "You mean, you expected this day?" Princess Changle opened her eyes and looked at Merton strangely.


    Merton nodded without hesitation and said, "that''s natural. Your fiance''s ability to make money is recognized all over the world. Except for the Ministry of the people, who can control the world economy better than me."


    Merton''s words are not exaggerated. Ink magazine not only publishes the world, but also puts away the world''s information for him. The number and scale of workshops built around the Tang Dynasty are listed on his desk one by one, so he is so confident about it. Moreover, only fierce competition can make Mojia village grow rapidly and intensify the upgrading of ink technology, which is what Merton is happy to see.


    Princess Changle was already able to adapt to Merton''s mouth. She couldn''t help but look at him and said, "my fiance, who told you to talk big and promise such a high bride price. I don''t think it''s possible to take your salary. It depends on how you get around."


    Since Merton was so confident, Princess Changle naturally believed him, so she stopped worrying and began to tease Merton.


    Merton couldn''t help having a headache when he heard the speech. He knew that he would not be so noble. He directly received the generous gifts sent by Lu Dongzan. I''m afraid he doesn''t have to get into such a dilemma now.


    Merton has a deep resentment in his heart. Up to now, his salary is very poor. He fought for several months and made great achievements, but he didn''t reward a penny. Up to now, Merton has basically determined that Li Shimin is definitely trying to make it difficult for him, otherwise there would be no such coincidence.


    Moreover, the biggest purpose of this siege of Mojia village is to cut off the financial resources of Mojia village. I''m afraid its purpose is to prevent Merton from breaking his promise and using Mojia village to raise betrothal gifts for marrying Princess Changle, because once Merton wins Princess Changle, if he wants to deal with Mojia village again, he may have more concerns. This is the best opportunity to deal with Mojia village.


    "Mountain people have their own tricks!" Merton laughed, covering up the topic and concentrating on visiting the beautiful scenery of Mojia village.


    "Brother Mo is here!" suddenly a surprised voice interrupted the world between Merton and Princess Changle. Merton turned his head and saw the familiar figure of Chai Lingwu coming in a hurry.


    "Cousin Lingwu!" Princess Changle said crisply. Chai Lingwu''s mother is Princess Pingyang and Li Shimin are close brothers and sisters. Naturally, she is also quite familiar with Chai Lingwu.


    "It''s brother Li!" Morton arched his hand.


    "I''m going to entertain all my friends in Caixia Pavilion. I just saw brother Mo and sister Changle playing here. How about going to the dinner together?" Chai Lingwu invited.


    Merton looked at Princess Changle, shook his head and said, "Changle is a woman''s family. I''m afraid it''s inconvenient to go to the banquet. Let''s go another day!"


    Chai Lingwu laughed and said, "it''s not necessary. Not only my friends, but also many legitimate daughters of aristocratic families are here, and many are familiar with Changle."


    "The legitimate daughter of the aristocratic family!"


    Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect that the atmosphere of the upper class of the Tang Dynasty had been so open. In public, it had become normal for men and women to prevent public gatherings.


    In fact, this matter also has something to do with Merton. Since Merton and Princess Changle fell in love freely, they directly promoted the reform of the marriage system between men and women in the Tang Dynasty, resulting in many underage women waiting for words in the boudoir. In addition, Tang Feng was extremely open, which led to today''s situation.


    Chai Lingwu said the names of several women. Indeed, she was a familiar person to Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle nodded and said, "I haven''t seen them for a long time. It''s time to catch up!"


    Merton saw that Princess Changle agreed, so he got up and went to Caixia Pavilion together!


    Just now, the Caixia Pavilion saw that a table of delicacies had been set up. Many aristocratic family CHILDES in the pavilion had been waiting here. Sure enough, many Yingyan girls were here.


    "Princess Changle and mohou are here!"


    With the announcement, all eyes immediately focused on the three people, especially Merton''s flat head and Princess Changle''s horsetail, and even more eyes stayed on Merton and Princess Changle.


    "Princess Changle!" I saw a group of maidens from aristocratic families and Princess Changle gathered around one after another,


    Princess Changle and Merton said hello, took the initiative to go to a group of women''s family members, and immediately surrounded them like stars and the moon. The women''s family members looked at Princess Changle''s horsetail hairstyle with envy and glanced at Merton with envy.


    Merton saw that Princess Changle was in harmony with the girls, so he followed Li Tai to the CHILDES.


    "Brother Chai really has great powers. I didn''t expect to invite Marquis mo." someone in the aristocratic family shouted. At the moment, Chai Lingwu just led the western region chamber of Commerce. Standing in front of all the aristocratic family princes, he couldn''t help being heroic. Only power and wealth can make a man intoxicated. At the moment, he really realized the feeling that Merton held a lot of money.


    "I don''t need to introduce the eldest brother of Chang''an city. You naturally know that these are the legitimate sons of Luoyang aristocratic family. This is Zheng Chang, the second childe of Luoyang Zheng family, and Lu Shuang, the legitimate son of Lu family..." Chai Lingwu glowed and said in a loud voice.


    "Brother Chai, brother Zheng, brother Lu!..." Merton saluted one by one. He didn''t know everyone. For the sake of Li Tai''s face, it was just a courtesy day.


    "Brother Mo''s name. We''ve also heard about it for a long time. I heard that the situation of Mojia village is critical. I thought I didn''t see brother Mo this time. Now I didn''t expect to get what I wanted here. It''s really lucky!"


    Just as they sat down, Lu Shuang, the legitimate son of the Lu family in Luoyang, suddenly said that the situation of Mojia village was well known, but no one mentioned it. However, Lu Shuang didn''t expect to mention it at this time.


    For a moment, the whole audience was suddenly cold, and many people turned their eyes to them.

 Chapter 655

    "Lu Jia!" Merton immediately frowned. In the intelligence of Mojia village, the most ruthless sniper on the Mohist industry in Luoyang city is probably Lu Jia. But he clearly met Lu Shuang for the first time. He had no intersection with Lu Jia on weekdays, but he didn''t expect that the other party would be so hostile to him.


    "Thank you brother Lu. Although Mojia village encountered some difficulties, it was just an itch of scabies. Mo didn''t take it to heart. I didn''t expect brother Lu to be more anxious than mo." Merton sneered.


    Lu Shuang''s face suddenly became stiff. He couldn''t hang on his face and couldn''t help humming. Chai Lingwu sideways whispered: "brother Mo is brother Lu. The Lu family once had an engagement with Miss Zheng from childhood. However, because of brother Mo, the Imperial Court changed the household marriage law. The two families could be engaged again, but Miss Zheng was unwilling to live or die. This baby is completely yellow."


    "Ah!" Merton realized where the sudden disaster came from.


    "Miss Zheng is Zheng Chang''s younger sister and the legitimate daughter of the Zheng family. She looks very beautiful. You see, the one next to Changle. If I hadn''t been engaged to Princess baling, I''m afraid I would be excited. At the moment, Miss Zheng came to Chang''an city to play. Brother Lu didn''t follow. I didn''t expect to see brother mo. naturally, I have some complaints in my heart." Chai Lingwu pointed to a beautiful woman wearing mink fur and said with a smile.


    Merton turned his head and looked amazing. No wonder Lu Shuang would never forget it.


    Zheng Chang and Lu Shuang are close friends. Seeing this, they quickly got up and said, "just a few merchants. Brother Mo deals with a lot of money. One person can raise money for the flood in Shandong and build the Datang silk system. What they do is a matter of heaven and earth. How can you care about such small things?"


    "That''s natural. A few days ago, I strongly invited brother Mo to join the western regions chamber of Commerce and share 10% of the shares, but brother Mo didn''t feel excited at all. This kind of bearing is especially common." Chai Lingwu laughed.


    Naturally, people have heard about the chamber of Commerce in the western regions, and the profits of the Silk Road are well known. 10% of the shares are extremely huge wealth in the future. Merton can not be moved, which really makes people look at it differently.


    The women''s family members on one side could not help casting bursts of exploratory eyes.


    "Hahaha, brother Mo turns a stone into gold, and his means are all powerful. How can it be difficult to get brother Mo in the affairs of the Mojia village? It''s my little brother who worries too much." Lu Shuang bowed his head and softened, but no one could hear his reluctance.


    "That''s natural. As long as brother Mo opens his mouth, his promise will always be valid, and even in the situation of Mojia village, as long as Marquis Mo opens his mouth, I will help brother Mo fight together with Guanlong aristocratic family!" Chai Lingwu said with a righteous look.


    "If you can help Guanlong aristocratic family with such a small matter, you can''t kill a chicken with an ox knife." Merton said ha ha.


    The current situation of Mojia village has not been fueled by the Guanlong family. As long as the Mojia village asks for help from the Guanlong family, I''m afraid it will be subject to the Guanlong family. I''m afraid it''s impossible for the Mojia village to maintain its independence.


    Chai Lingwu was immediately disappointed, but he quickly covered up the past. He believed that as long as the Mojia village could not hold on, he would beg him sooner or later.


    "I also want to see the means of connecting heaven in Mojia village." Lu shuangzhen and others said to each other.


    "Well, Chai invited you to the lotus garden today to recite poetry and taste wine. Don''t mention other troubles," Chai Lingwu waved his hand.


    "That''s true!" the children of the aristocratic family said one after another.


    "We shouldn''t drink freely today, otherwise it''s the best way to relieve thousands of worries! That''s the best wine in the world. Today we''re having a drink. My younger brother specially found the wine of western regions and asked you to taste it!" Chai Lingwu stretched out his hand and immediately offered a jar of precious western regions wine to his servants one by one.


    Merton suddenly realized that today''s banquet is probably not so simple. Chai Lingwu is probably looking for a market for the chamber of Commerce in the western regions, and the market of the vast land of Shandong is mostly controlled by Shandong aristocratic families.


    "It''s really good wine!"


    Cups of bright red grape wine send out bursts of wine fragrance. When matched with top delicacies, the guests and hosts enjoy it for a while.


    Most of the children of aristocratic families are well-educated people, not wine bags, especially in front of the women of aristocratic families.


    In front of the beautiful scenery of wine, aristocratic families were full of poetry and poetry, especially Lu Shuang made two poems in succession, took the opportunity to express his feelings for Miss Zheng''s family, and immediately won a lot of applause. He couldn''t help looking at Miss Zheng''s family proudly. However, he didn''t get any response at all and couldn''t help being annoyed.


    She couldn''t help but make the legitimate women of all aristocratic families steal and laugh. Miss Zheng couldn''t help humming coldly: "think of the deep love for sister Changle in the original article" New Year''s Eve ", an article" Yanqiu Ci "and" ten miles of red makeup "by mohou. Zhuyu was in front, and you wrote poetry in front of mohou. It''s like a teacher''s axe."


    When Merton heard this sound, he was very familiar with it. He was shocked, but he couldn''t remember when he met Miss Zheng.


    "Yes, whoever wants to listen to your broken poems should also listen to mohou." other aristocratic girls shouted one after another.


    Lu Shuang and others were embarrassed. They wrote poems one after another, but they ignored Merton. I''m afraid they were embarrassed. I didn''t expect to be punctured by Miss Zheng on the spot.


    Chai Lingwu laughed and said, "isn''t it still brother Mo''s turn?"


    "Brother Mo''s poetic talent is well known all over the world, and we are also looking forward to it." Zheng Chang also expected that no matter what prejudice they have against Merton, they have to admit that Merton''s poetic talent is recognized by the world.


    Morton shook his head and didn''t think of the limelight. He said, "my little brother has been off school for nearly a year. I''m afraid he''s unfamiliar with writing poetry. Please forgive me."


    "Brother Mo is busy, we can understand!" Chai Lingwu gave an airway. He didn''t want Lu Shuang and others to be embarrassed. After all, the market in Shandong still needs their help in the future.


    However, he didn''t expect that Lu Shuang would not let go and said, "is it because brother Mo''s good poems are constantly, but now he refuses to give me face?"


    Merton had a meal in his hand, but Lu Shuang forced him up. At that moment, his face was cold, and he said in his heart, "I''m not modest, but I''ve written poems recently. It''s hard to hide."


    "It''s hard to tell!"


    Merton finished and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "I don''t know what''s going on. The poems I wrote always seem to be suspected of advertising for Mojia village, but I''ve decided not to interfere in the affairs of Mojia village. It''s not good!"


    Chai Lingwu immediately looked at each other. He couldn''t help but think of the fact that Mojia village used peerless good poetry to advertise the snow and salt of Mojia village and crooked poetry to advertise the Mojia food city. At that time, many poetry circles in Chang''an City attacked and almost didn''t cause public anger.


    "Then I''ll look forward to it!" Lu Shuang said unkindly.


    Chai Lingwu suddenly felt bad. You know brother Mo''s advertising poem is a masterpiece! If one is not good, maybe their previous efforts will be wasted, but it is not easy to stop him at this time.


    When Merton heard the speech, he immediately showed a mysterious smile, stretched out his hand and made a gesture to tie an, who was waiting.


    Soon tiean took out a beautiful brocade box from the carriage waiting outside.


    Stunned, Merton opened the brocade box and found six beautifully packaged glass wine glasses.


    "This is the glass ink technique of Mohism!" Chai Lingwu was shocked, as if he saw a peerless treasure, and his eyes flashed.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is the latest product, glass wine set, just offered by Mojia village. It''s crystal clear and has no color. It''s a rare boutique in the world. I think it''s perfect to use this wine cup with the wine of western regions."


    The bright red grape wine is poured into the crystal clear glass. Merton holds the glass high. The wine in the glass is clearly visible. Merton drinks it up in one gulp, and everyone can clearly see the wine flowing into Merton''s mouth.


    Merton drank three cups in a row. He was full of poetic interest and said, "the luminous cup of grape wine. If you want to drink the pipa, you should urge immediately. When you lie drunk on the battlefield, don''t laugh. How many people have fought back in ancient times."


    "Good poetry!"


    All the women of the aristocratic family cheered one after another and tasted the poem carefully. Princess Changle also looked at Merton with love on her face, but she didn''t find the strange look hidden in Miss Zheng''s obscure eyes beside him.


    "It''s really a peerless poem!" Chai Lingwu said with emotion. As expected, Merton''s poem surprised everyone again. However, Chai Lingwu focused on the glass wine cup in Merton''s hand. I believe that once the poem came, the glass wine utensils must be very popular. This is a huge business opportunity. Naturally, the market in Datang will not give up, but he has the western region chamber of Commerce, If this glass wine set can be sent to the western regions where wine is more popular, I''m afraid it will be of great value.


    "I wonder if the Western Chamber of commerce can purchase one of these wine sets!" Chai Lingwu couldn''t wait.


    "Brother Chai doesn''t need to talk to me about such a small matter. Just send someone to Mojia village." Merton didn''t care.


    "Brother Mo, stand up for justice!" Chai Lingwu said with great joy.


    "Brother Chai!" Lu Shuang said discontentedly. At the moment, they are jointly encircling and suppressing Mojia village. Unexpectedly, Chai Lingwu took the initiative to rebel.


    Chai Lingwu smiled awkwardly and said, "happy to see the hunter, happy to see the hunter."


    However, it is impossible for him to give up lucrative things such as glass products.


    Lu Shuang immediately regretted and wanted to smoke his mouth. He didn''t expect that Merton had another peerless poem for advertising. This time, stealing chicken can''t erode rice, which not only promoted Merton''s popularity in front of Miss Zheng, but also added a source of money to the Mojia village.

 Chapter 656

    The banquet in Caixia Pavilion didn''t last long. It can be said that there were several joys and several sorrows,


    "Everyone, please talk slowly. Mo Mou has something to say goodbye first!" Merton got up and said goodbye.


    "Brother Mo, go slowly!"


    The people got up one after another and didn''t stay. Chai Lingwu also discussed important matters with the childe of Shandong aristocratic family. After all, if the chamber of Commerce in the western regions wants to make a fortune, they can''t do without the exquisite supply of goods in Shandong and the huge market in Shandong. They have common interests.


    When Merton got up, Princess Changle also left with Merton from among the women of the aristocratic family.


    Until they went out of the lotus garden, Princess Changle was surprised and asked, "glass wine set is what you said!"


    "This is not my idea, but the surprise from Mojia village." Merton shook his head and said. To tell the truth, even he didn''t expect that Mojia village could make these wine utensils so quickly.


    "Can the crisis of Mojia village be solved in this way?" asked Princess Changle.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the output of glass in Mojia village is not too much. Even if it is expensive, I''m afraid I can''t raise much money in a short time."


    Princess Changle suddenly looked dim.


    Merton comforted: "of course, this thing has broad prospects. It must be a pillar of Mojia village in the future. It makes people believe that Mojia village has the ability to continue to create ink technology. This is the greatest success of Mojia village. It may not be enough to make the world believe in Mojia Village and get rid of the crisis of Mojia village."


    "You mean, those people will continue to target Mojia village," said Princess Changle.


    "It''s natural. After all, glass products are the only unique secret skill of Mojia village. After all, it''s difficult for them to support. What they are doing now is to try to lose the capital of Mojia village. Once the capital turnover of Mojia village is not open, they can completely destroy Mojia Village. Now it depends on Mojia village and who can last!" Merton said with a frozen face.


    "My ice cream shop still has some funds, or you should take it to the emergency!" Princess Changle''s bright eyes turned.


    Merton laughed and said, "if I use your money, I''m afraid it will spread all over the world in an instant and make the world completely lose confidence in Mojia village. You''d better keep your money for yourself!"


    "By the way, I haven''t seen you go to women''s medical school recently!" Merton asked. Recently, Merton sent Princess Changle back to the palace, mostly back to the palace, instead of seeing her go to the women''s medical school.


    Princess Changle glanced at Merton and said, "the first phase students of the first women''s college have graduated. Now Taoist sun is preparing to build a women''s hospital. Most female medical students are medical apprentices in the hospital. After accumulating experience, once another six months, a separate women''s hospital will be established."


    Princess Changle became more and more excited. She looked forward to it. After all, once the women''s hospital is completed, it will become the gospel of women all over the world.


    Merton suddenly realized that he had never paid attention to the women''s medical school since he came back from Tuyuhun. He didn''t expect Sun Simiao to have reached this step.


    "I also want to go, but my father doesn''t allow it. After all, the hospital has many people and eyes, so it''s not safe. Moreover, the Red Cross has a lot of things, so it''s been delayed all the time." Princess Changle regretted.


    "Merton comforted:" after we get married, Mojia village will open a Red Cross Hospital for you. This hospital can be used every time there is a major disaster or a patient who has no money to treat. "


    Princess Changle''s eyes lit up and nodded heavily. Her eyes looking at Merton were immediately full of tenderness. They said love words for a while, and then they were reluctant to say goodbye.


    After returning Changle to the palace, Merton immediately turned his horse''s head and prepared to return to the Mohist house. He always paid attention to the situation of the Mohist village. Although he was ready to let the Mohist Village tide over the difficulties, how could he really rest assured.


    "Wait a minute, Mo Hou!"


    Suddenly, a four wheeled carriage produced by Mojia village caught up quickly and walked side by side with Merton''s carriage.


    "Who is it?" tiean said warily.


    A girl''s voice sounded in the side-by-side carriage: "I didn''t expect that the dignified Mo family had gone deep into the battlefield to hunt down Fu Yunqian Li without changing her face. She was afraid of me, a little weak woman."


    Merton turned to lift the curtain of the carriage and saw a stunning face on the window of the opposite carriage. It was Miss Zheng in the Caixia pavilion just now.


    "It''s Miss Zheng!" Merton said politely.


    Suddenly the eyes shrunk and saw a familiar golden touch on Miss Zheng''s head, and the memory from the bottom of my heart suddenly poured into my heart.


    "It''s you!" Merton took a deep breath. No wonder Merton heard Miss Zheng''s voice so familiar. It turned out to be the woman who blocked the door and asked Merton to distinguish the true and false gold strands.


    Miss Zheng suddenly showed her face and said with a smile, "yes, it''s me. I can live up to the Dharma in the world and live up to the Tathagata and Qing. As expected, I always remember this poem. Unfortunately, I prefer the song" ten miles of red makeup ".


    "I didn''t expect you to have such a background. You are the women of the Zheng family in Luoyang!" Merton said with a bitter smile. He always thought that these women should be people from Chang''an city.


    "At the beginning, my concubine came to Chang''an city to attend the new year''s Eve, but she took the carriage of Mohist School and went to Chang''an City day and night. Unfortunately, at the new year''s Eve Lantern Festival, mohou''s eyes were only princess Changle, but she didn''t find that there was another person looking at you under the stage!" Miss Zheng''s face changed and said wrongly.


    Merton''s heart suddenly burst. He was about to say and write something, but he saw Miss Zheng''s face change in an instant. He smiled and said, "Marquis Mo, do you regret? Now there is still a chance to regret. It all depends on marquis mo. my engagement with Lu Shuang has been cancelled, and now it''s still in the waiting room."


    Merton said with a wry smile, "Miss Zheng, don''t joke. I''ve been married by the Emperor himself. It''s impossible to change it."


    Miss Zheng''s eyes were firm. Although her voice was small, it clearly came into Merton''s ears and said, "I don''t mind being small."


    Merton was shocked and looked at Miss Zheng strangely. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "not to mention that the Zheng family can''t be willing to be a legitimate daughter, but Changle and I are happy. We can''t accommodate anyone at all. I''m sorry!"


    "Can you be desperate for Princess Changle, but you can''t do anything for me?" asked Miss Zheng.


    Merton was silent.


    Miss Zheng smiled miserably and said, "I see. Be careful of Lu Shuang. He will deal with Mojia village later."


    "Thank you!" Merton hugged silently, but saw that the curtain on the opposite side had been put down, and there was no sound again.


    Their carriages soon staggered. Miss Zheng watched Merton''s carriage go away, and she couldn''t help crying.


    After a long time. Miss Zheng dried her tears and a terrible pallor appeared on her face, adding a bit of beauty.


    "Turn the carriage and go to the palace. I''ll meet the queen." Miss Zheng trembled.


    "Yes!" the carriage turned around and headed for the palace.


    It is well known in Chang''an city. Empress changsun is looking for beauty for Li Shimin. Women from all aristocratic families come one after another.


    On the carriage, Miss Zheng''s heart was getting colder and colder, but her eyes were gradually firm.


    "I am the most talented man in the world. Then marry the most powerful man in the world!" the resolute voice of Miss Zheng''s family came from the carriage, which was soon submerged in the excitement of Chang''an city.


    Merton didn''t expect that Miss Zheng had another identity, that is, the famous Zheng Chonghua in the history books. In the history of previous lives, she didn''t enter the palace because she was admonished by Wei Zhengli for her engagement with Lu Shuang. Now, because of Merton, this engagement has been invalidated, I''m afraid the history will be rewritten.

 Chapter 657

    "This is the glass that Merton sent!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin holds a crystal clear wine cup in his hand. He is very interested in studying. He is used to seeing the treasures in the world, but he is very interested in seeing such a delicate wine cup for the first time.


    "Your Majesty, as soon as this wine cup appeared on the street of Chang''an City, it sold crazy. Good players from various wine countries rushed to buy it. It is said that this wine cup is the best for drinking wine from the western regions. Moreover, Marquis mohou also wrote a poem for it. The wine luminous cup. If you want to drink pipa, you can urge it immediately. Now this thing has a very nice name, luminous cup! It is necessary to drink "Something to prepare," pound said vividly. With the continuous spread of Merton''s poems, the fame of the luminous cup is growing!


    "This boy is a monster. It''s addictive to advertise with poetry!" Li Shimin laughed and scolded. Li Shimin hated Merton''s bad habit of advertising with poetry, but Merton never changed.


    "Mohou''s peerless poems match such a wonderful thing. I''m afraid only mohou who has been on the battlefield can write this poem!" pound laughed.


    Li Shimin nodded, suddenly his eyes flashed and said, "you mean the luminous cup is selling well, so the Mojia village can continue to withstand!"


    How can Li Shimin not know that the major workshops are encircling and suppressing the Mojia village? At the moment, he is just sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight.


    "Your Majesty, as soon as this thing appears, it will be looted. I want to come to Mojia village to make a lot of profits, and the natural support time will be longer." pound nodded.


    Hearing the speech, Li Shimin sighed with regret: "I still want to wait for Merton to ask me for help? I''m afraid I''ll have to wait a lot more time."


    Because of Princess Changle, Li Shimin has a deep resentment against Merton. He always wants to find a chance for Merton to beg in front of him. Unfortunately, Merton doesn''t follow his wishes and is as tenacious as a Xiaoqiang.


    However, the people all over the world have benefited a lot from their struggle. Originally, Mojia village was in a weak position. Now, Mojia village has more financial resources, and Li Shimin is also happy to see its success weaken the financial resources of other aristocratic families.


    Thinking of the excitement, Li Shimin saw the wine cup in front of him and couldn''t help but be moved. The palace naturally didn''t lack western region wine. Soon a bottle of western region wine was served, and the bright red grape wine was poured into the cup. Sure enough, you can clearly see the shaking of the wine outside, which can''t help but add a bit of artistic conception.


    Looking at the bright red liquor in the luminous cup, Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking of the years when he was a man, and couldn''t help singing loudly: "... Don''t laugh when you are drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times."


    "I didn''t expect your majesty to be in such a good mood." with a chuckle, the empress Chang sun in palace clothes came in, but she was weak for many years and her face was a little pale..


    "It''s Guanyin''s maid. Merton sent a set of wine utensils. I''m tasting them." Li Shimin got up and said.


    When empress Chang sun walked in and saw the wine, she immediately said, "my body is weak and sick, so I shouldn''t drink. But Merton also wanted to give me a set of tea set. When making tea, she can clearly see the stretch of tea. It''s really interesting. I''m very happy."


    "Oh! Merton ghost has many ideas and made a lot of good things." Li Shimin laughed.


    "That''s needless to say! People are fighting for you in front, and you''re still thinking about making it difficult for him." empress Chang sun has a good impression of Merton and can''t help speaking for Merton.


    Li Shimin quickly and awkwardly changed the topic and said, "how can Guanyin maid come to Taiji hall today? But what''s important?"


    Tai Chi hall is where Li Shimin works. In the past, empress Chang sun hardly came here.


    Empress Chang sun immediately said, "Your Majesty, since your majesty ascended the throne, she has never selected a beautiful girl. Now the world is stable, but the harem is empty. Please allow her majesty to select a draft for the emperor to enrich the harem."


    "Draft!" Li Shimin''s face suddenly froze and looked at the empress Chang sun in disbelief.


    "What''s the meaning of Guanyin maidservant? With Guanyin maidservant around me, my life is enough, and there''s no need to draft!" Li Shimin, like emperors in the world, completely ignores the existence of other concubines in the harem and looks at the empress Chang sun with love.


    "I don''t dare to be the second Dugu queen, isn''t that why people say that I''m jealous!" empress Chang Sun said wrongly on her face.


    It has to be said that empress Chang sun is the most perfect example of a wife in ancient history. She is simply in line with all the virtues of women in feudal society. She is beautiful, generous, knowledgeable, reasonable, gentle and virtuous, and not jealous. She not only manages the harem in an orderly manner, but also thinks of selecting beautiful women for Li Shi''s people.


    Throughout the dynasties, the way the empress selected women was nothing more than to please the emperor in order to secure her favor, or new beauties entered the palace. Naturally, they could pose a threat to the original imperial concubine and share the emperor''s favor, so as not to affect her status. However, the empress changsun didn''t have to worry about it at all. She and Li Shimin were married and loved all her life.


    Rao is so. Empress Chang sun is more perfect than any empress.


    "The queen can do it!" Li Shimin said no just now, but now he is very honest.


    "Well!" the eldest sun empress nodded softly, "today I see that the family sister of Princess Zheng who entered the palace is very upright, as well as the daughter of the Xu family..."


    When empress Chang Sun left, Li Shimin repressed his ecstasy and said, "come and send orders. I''ll stay in the Lizheng Hall tonight."


    Soon, the emperor''s draft soon spread all over Chang''an city. Except that Merton couldn''t understand, the whole people of the Tang Dynasty felt very normal. Even civil and military officials wrote congratulations, and even let their daughters prepare to participate.


    Of course, after being envious for a while, Merton immediately focused all his attention on the Mojia village, because the glass wine sets and tea sets were so hot that they were in short supply.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, how many cattle and horses did tiewu earn for Mojia village? You must keep a batch of luminous cups for me." tiewu begged in front of Xu Jie in the Mo house.


    "Tiewu, it''s not that I don''t pay attention to loyalty, but that the output of luminous cup is very small, and the supply in Datang is in short supply." Xu Jie thought.


    "Rare things are more expensive, because there are few, so there is a profit, and the price is all easy to say." tiewu said forthrightly.


    With the rise of Mojia village, tiewu''s business continues to expand and go deep into the whole northern prairie. Once these wine utensils in Mojia village are transported to the grassland tribes, they will be very popular and make a lot of money. Now, with the continuous increase of liquor in the Tang Dynasty, selling stuffy horses can''t make much money. Tiewu can only find a way to make money.


    "OK, fifty sets at most! But cash!" Xu Jie seemed helpless.


    "No problem!"


    Tie Wu nodded without hesitation.


    Send away the happy tiewu. Then, the western regions chamber of Commerce, Hu merchants and Datang merchants came, and each of them placed a large number of orders without hesitation.


    After finally sending everyone away, Xu Jie was directly tired here. The popularity of the luminous cup made Xu Jie realize the hot scene of the rise of Mojia village.


    "I really made a lot of money this time. This is the first time that my Mojia village turned losses into profits!" Li Yi carefully calculated the accounts several times and couldn''t help crying with joy.


    "Live up to expectations! Mojia village has finally turned the corner!" Xu Jie breathed a sigh of relief. He finally lived up to Merton''s trust and finally supported Mojia village. As long as he follows this momentum, it must be Mojia village that laughs to the end.

 Chapter 658

    The popularity of the luminous cup is more important to benefit from the most common phenomenon of Han people - gift giving!


    With the passage of time, the business war of major workshops to encircle and suppress Mojia village has been going on for nearly a month. With the cold weather, it has entered the twelfth lunar month. As the saying goes, the twelfth lunar month is the year. At the end of the new year, all kinds of gifts are everywhere. I''m afraid there is nothing more suitable and more pleasing than the luminous cup for the Spring Festival this year. Soon, the sales of luminous cup increased greatly.


    The weather in Zhenguan for eight years was unusually cold. The whole Chang''an city suddenly froze. The north wind roared. In the wind, a large number of snowflakes fell quietly.


    "It''s snowing!"


    The ground was soon covered with snow-white after a snowstorm. In previous years, the whole Guanzhong must have lost thousands of birds and thousands of people. However, with the existence of brick roads, this snow still could not create many obstacles. On the brick roads, carriages came in an endless stream, grinding the snow on the brick roads into snow water. However, all this could not stop the pace of Mojia village, Carts of precious luminous cups are transported to major cities quickly, and then they are exchanged for carts of money. The finance of Mojia village improved rapidly.


    "Bang!"


    A valuable luminous cup was heavily thrown to the ground.


    "I didn''t expect that a small glass secret skill would slow down the Mojia village." Zheng open heart said reluctantly.


    "Does Mojia village think it can be turned over like this?" Lu Shuang said fiercely in his eyes.


    Zheng Chang was stunned. He looked at Lu Shuang puzzled and said, "how come you still have a move!"


    Lu Shuang sneered and said, "the Mohists have hurt me so badly. If I don''t repay him, how can I swallow this tone."


    Zheng Chang looked at Lu Shuang anxiously and said, "don''t play too much. The Mexican family is not what it used to be. It''s not an ordinary merchant, but take it at will!"


    Lu Shuang said indifferently, "don''t worry, I have my own discretion! By the way, your sister, why haven''t you seen her lately!"


    Zheng opened his heart and said, "my little sister went to visit Princess Zheng in the palace. They usually have a good relationship at home. Now it''s hard to come to Chang''an city. Naturally, we should contact more."


    In fact, everyone in the Zheng family knows that the purpose of Miss Zheng''s coming here is just hiding from Lu Shuang.


    Lu Shuang did not doubt too much and sighed disappointed.


    "According to me, since you don''t want to, why do you force?" Zheng Chang couldn''t bear to try to persuade him.


    "I know, what she likes is mojiazi!" Lu Shuang said without hesitation.


    "Ah!" Zheng Chang couldn''t help exclaiming. He couldn''t believe looking at Lu Shuang.


    "She knows all the poems of Mohist school, and regards Mohist school as the person who saves her marriage. The world likes Mohist school. I don''t know where she can be exceptional." Lu Shuang said without hesitation.


    "It''s impossible! The mojiazi are engaged to Princess Changle." Zheng Chang doesn''t dare to buy a channel. If so, why does the little sister agree to participate in the draft!


    "Of course I know they can''t, but I just can''t swallow it. I want to prove to her that mojiazi is just like this and will be defeated by me." Lu Shuang said ruthlessly,


    Until now, Zheng gondola knew why Lu Shuang''s resentment against mojiazi was so great. It was not just Merton who broke up his engagement with his little sister, but robbed her of her heart.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Shopkeeper Xu! No, Liu Zhang''s room is missing!" in the Mohist house, a Mohist boy came to report in a hurry in the snow.


    Xu Jie was surprised. Liu Zhangfang was his right-hand man and sent out to collect a payment from Mojia village. There was no accident.


    "What about the payment?" Xu Jie asked.


    "The other party said that he had paid Liu''s account room in full, and the receipt of Liu''s account room was signed, and the family of Liu''s account room was gone." the children of Mohism were helpless.


    Xu Jie''s heart suddenly cooled half. He couldn''t find anyone. I''m afraid this has become a headless case.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, something''s wrong. Something happened to the luminous cup destined for Luoyang City." Li Xin reported with a gloomy face. In order to avoid the frightened carriage, the transport vehicle lost control and fell into the ditch. It broke a lot and suffered heavy losses.


    "What a coincidence!" said Xu Jie, gnashing his teeth.


    Then, bad news came one after another. Five of the dealers of Datang Shidao who collectively urged suppliers to solve their worries chose to terminate the contract at the same time and asked for a refund of the deposit. This refund is 25000!


    "25000 passes! The payment for goods from various suppliers! The salary of employees! The tax for this quarter." Xu Jie took a breath when he calculated carefully. There are at least 150000 passes in Mojia village!


    "150000 yuan!"


    When Xu Jie reported all the figures to Merton, Merton also took a breath. He didn''t expect that the other party was so cruel and used all kinds of means, which instantly caused such a big deficit in Mojia village.


    "How could there be so many!" Forbes dared not set the channel.


    "In fact, part of the payment is in other places, but now the road is closed by heavy snow, and the distant water can''t quench the near thirst!" Xu Jie said helplessly looking at the heavier snow.


    "When will the money be paid back at the latest!" Merton asked solemnly.


    "Before the Chinese New Year at the latest!" Xu Jie said helplessly.


    Merton nodded and said fiercely. "In other words, we still have nearly a month to raise money and tell those who urge money that Mojia village will act in strict accordance with the contract. Before the new year, we promise to pay all the money! If we dare to make trouble, we will be the enemy for our Mojia village."


    He originally wanted to train the team of Mojia village as a test, but now the other party has even used Yin moves, so he can only fight in person.


    "Yes!" when Xu Jie saw Merton''s personal command, he couldn''t help but be determined in his heart.


    "First of all, let one armed Uncle Wang take his own team and go to other places to recover the money as much as he can." Merton ordered.


    Fubo solemnly nodded. At the moment, the other party''s Yin moves are frequent. One armed old Wang is the safest to take the team himself!


    "Second, increase the shipment of the luminous cup immediately. When transporting the goods, double the number of people must ensure the safety of the luminous cup." Merton solemnly said. The luminous cup is the largest source of wealth for Mojia village. Naturally, Mojia village cannot give up easily.


    "Third, the interior of Mojia village can not be disordered. All workshops work normally to ensure shipment. The Spring Festival is the peak season for people to purchase, which is also a lot of income."


    "Finally, keep an eye on the two CHILDES Lu Zheng in Luoyang and their movements around them, and report back immediately when you have news." Merton said fiercely in his eyes. I''m afraid they have something to do with the decline of Mojia village to its present state.


    Watching fuber and others leave one after another, Merton got up and looked at the growing snow outside the window. Large snowflakes such as goose feather fell one after another. He couldn''t help muttering, "the cold winter has come!"

 Chapter 659

    The current situation of Mojia village can''t be concealed from the public. In less than two days, the Confucian Journal of Mojia village reported the current situation of Mojia village again.


    "Sell the newspaper, sell the newspaper! The prediction of Confucian magazine has come true, and the collapse of Mojia village is imminent!"


    "Mojia village is in deficit of 150000 yuan!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One Newsboy peddled Confucian journals along the street. Suddenly, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation, and everyone rushed to buy Confucian journals.


    "150000 holes!"


    When the people of Chang''an city saw the report of the Confucian journal, everyone couldn''t help but take a breath. Wanguan''s family wealth was already a great rich family in Chang''an City, and Mojia village owed 150000 yuan at once. How can such a huge deficit not be smacked.


    "The black sheep of the Mohist family really defeated the Mohist village!" many people had already seen Merton unhappy and couldn''t help gloating.


    "What is the reason why Mohist was defeated? At the beginning, Mohist expedition to Tuyuhun was not in Mohist village." some supporters of Merton retorted.


    "It seems that Mojia village was really supported by Mojia Zi alone. After leaving Mojia Zi, Mojia village immediately disappeared!" they shook their heads and sighed.


    "In my opinion, if the secret skills of Mojia village were not leaked, how could these workshops be opponents of Mojia village. Mojia village is not a crime of war!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The whole Chang''an city immediately talked about the current situation of Mojia village. It can be said that it was a hot discussion in the whole city and attracted the attention of everyone. Some people gloated at the disaster and others shook their heads and sighed.


    "Doesn''t it mean that the situation in Mojia village has improved since the night light cup fire in Mojia village last month?" someone wondered.


    "In my opinion, someone must be secretly targeting, deliberately targeting Mojia village."


    "The first village in the world, Mojia village, big trees attract the wind!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    How can the current situation of Mojia village be concealed from the well-informed people of Chang''an City? Soon, all the aristocratic families behind the workshop of Mojia village were found out. Looking at such a huge force, everyone was silent.


    "That''s the mojiazi who has created miracles repeatedly. If others can''t do it, it doesn''t mean that mojiazi can''t do it." someone said firmly. Even if Mojia village encounters such difficulties, he still chooses to believe in Mojia village.


    Suddenly, many people nodded one after another. At the thought of so many miracles created by Merton, their confidence increased greatly.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Outside the west gate, one armed Uncle Wang led 50 Mohist village guards ready to go, followed by nearly 20 four-wheel trucks behind him. As the road was difficult in the heavy snow, Merton simply sent more carriages and doubled his manpower.


    "Uncle Wang, your task is to safely transport the payment for goods from Luoyang!" Merton solemnly ordered. Even if the situation in Luoyang is the most severe, Luoyang''s status is the most important. It is impossible for Mojia village to give up. The only thing we can do is send more people.


    "Don''t worry, young master. If you want to touch the money of Mojia village, you have to step on my old Wang''s body." one armed Uncle Wang said firmly.


    "Safety first, no matter how much money is not as important as the lives of my children in Mojia village, but this time there are hundreds of people with me. I believe ordinary people don''t dare to come to our idea." Merton said.


    "Don''t worry, young master. My old Wang will focus on stability." one armed Uncle Wang said. Seeing that it was not early, he waved his hand immediately, and the whole team set out immediately and soon disappeared into the vast snow.


    Merton looked at it for a long time. Then he turned back and told tie an, "go back to the house!"


    As soon as the carriage returned to Mo''s house, he saw that Fubo had been waiting early. Seeing Merton''s carriage, he hurried to meet it!


    "Young master, the Chamberlain of the Qin house has arrived!" reported Fu Bo.


    "Qin mansion!" Morton was stunned. When he returned to the house, he saw that uncle Qin, the housekeeper of Qin Qiong, the Duke of the Yi Kingdom, was already waiting.


    "I''ve seen mohou!" Uncle Qin bowed.


    Merton laughed and said, "it''s uncle Qin! Long time no see! How are you recently!"


    Since Qin Huaiyu joined the army, Merton has been busy with the western expedition. Merton has never boarded the gate of Qin house again. He hasn''t seen uncle Qin for nearly a year.


    "Thanks to the young master, I''m still in good health. I came to support Mojia village at the order of my young master. My young master heard about the plight of Mojia village, but it''s inconvenient to come. He specially sent 5000 yuan of silver. Although it can''t help, he can do his best and ask mohou to count!" Uncle Qin stretched out his hand and four servants of the Qin family came from a carriage, Bring down boxes of silver.


    "Five thousand passes!" Merton was suddenly warm in his heart. He didn''t expect that at this time, the Qin house took the initiative to support him.


    Qin''s residence is also a big family and a big business. Qin Qiong spends most of her time at home recuperating from illness and doesn''t have much income. Five thousand Guan is not a small amount for Qin''s residence. How can she not let Merton be moved by this timely help.


    However, Merton shook his head firmly and said, "Uncle Qin is polite. The Mojia village is not at the end of its poverty. If the Mojia village can''t support it, it will ask the Qin government for help!"


    Qin Bo advised again and again, but Merton postponed again and again, and finally had to leave reluctantly.


    After uncle Qin left, the steward of Cheng''s house and the steward of Yuchi''s house came one after another and sent a lot of money to help, but Merton refused one by one.


    After the housekeeper of the third house left, Merton thought for a long time and stretched out his hand. When fauberton came up to him and said, "what can I do for you, young master?"


    "Go and find out if something happened in the third house." Merton frowned.


    Fu Bo left in a hurry and came back soon. He reported: "young master Hui, I heard that the three young masters returned from the army yesterday and failed to encircle Zheng Chang and Lu Shuang. They smashed the shops of Zheng and Lu. Now they have been locked up in the government."


    "Encircle Zheng Guanglu Shuang!"


    "No foot!"


    Merton was suddenly moved by why the three houses gave gifts in the name of Qin Huaiyu.


    "Tie''an! Send a letter to the three people and say that the young master can only deal with it. Let them not worry." Merton said fiercely in his eyes. This business war involves a lot of interests and aristocratic families, and the three governments should not be involved.


    "Yes!" tie an nodded and hurried away.


    "If you don''t take other people''s money, you can''t refuse the money I brought!" as soon as tie an left, he heard Sun Simiao''s bright voice outside.


    "Sun Lao! Why are you here!" Merton hurriedly got up and greeted him. He saw Mo Wu supporting Sun Simiao in the snow despite the cold.


    "I heard of the crisis in Mojia village and specially brought 20000 people from Mojia hospital. I hope I can help moxiaoyou a little." Sun Simiao pointed to several carriage roads behind me.


    "The last time the doctor defended the boy, the boy hasn''t come to the door to be grateful. This time it''s my Mohist school. Why should the doctor go through this muddy water?" Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Sun Simiao Lang said: "if I were a doctor alone, I wouldn''t ask for more trouble, but mohou helped doctors a lot. Just because Mohist found a way out for doctors, it would be enough to make doctors grateful, not to mention the brand of Mohist hospital, which means that Mohist hospital has nothing to do with Mohist, and others don''t believe it!"


    It was impossible for Sun Simiao to stay in Chang''an city because he was indifferent to fame and wealth, but the Mohist hospital model was tailor-made for doctors. Coupled with the endless medical progress in Chang''an City, he saw the hope of the revival of doctors. How can Sun Simiao not be grateful for the Mohist village who helped doctors selflessly and wholeheartedly? Mohist village is in trouble, He naturally came to support. Not to mention, Mohist hospital is the product of cooperation between Mohists and doctors,


    "OK! The boy has the courage to accept it. When Mojia village gets better, he will return it to Mojia hospital at the first time." Merton said helplessly.


    Sun Simiao smiled and said, "I can rest assured that I don''t bother mohou if I still have patients to see."


    Merton hurriedly got up and saw Sun Simiao get on the carriage. Merton looked back at the 20000 Guan huge wealth behind him. He was a little relieved. There was a gap of 20000 Guan and 130000 Guan in the Mexican hospital.

 Chapter 660

    "This year''s wheat cover has three layers of quilt, and next year''s sleeping with steamed bread!"


    "Auspicious snow promises a good year!"


    The heavy snow soon covered the whole Guanzhong area. Countless people couldn''t help but rejoice at the sight of the heavy snow.


    After the heavy snow, the winter wheat replenished water and must grow well. Most of the pests in the farmland froze to death. The next year must be a bumper harvest year.


    "This heavy snow is really good for farmland, but I''m afraid it''s not good news for Mojia village!" Lu Shuang sneered as he looked at the blizzard sky.


    Because the snow is too heavy. The snow on the road is knee deep. This time, even the brick road has accumulated thick snow. Manual cleaning is time-consuming and laborious. It is impossible to clean up so much snow. The transportation of the whole Guanzhong area has been stopped because of the snowstorm.


    And after the heavy snow, once it freezes, it is more difficult to remove the snow.


    "Time is extremely precious for Mojia village. With the obstruction of Blizzard, the Mojia children have the ability to connect with the sky, and the goods from Mojia village can''t be transported to Chang''an city." Zheng Chang sneered.


    The day before yesterday, they were almost not blocked by Qin Huaiyu and fled in confusion, which directly became the laughing stock of Chang''an city. Now how can they not be excited to see the misfortune of Mojia village.


    "God helps me too!" Lu Shuang laughed. In his opinion, this time the Mojia village must be powerless.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "I admit that Mozi Tianzong has created miracles many times, but he is a person after all. Can he still defeat God?"


    Many people in Chang''an sighed. This rare snowstorm made the situation of Mojia village worse. The brick road on which Mojia village depends was blocked by heavy snow, which can be said to be fatal.


    In fact, it is more than others'' concern. Even the people in Mojia village are looking at the snowflakes all over the sky. Although there are farmland in Mojia village, the joy of auspicious snow and good harvest has long disappeared.


    "Is the day going to kill my Mohist village!" many Mohist children trembled, and some even knelt directly in the snow and cried.


    "Get out of the way, what will kill our Mojia village? With the young master''s brocade bag and secret skills, how can it be difficult to live in our Mojia village in a mere snow." Li Yi suddenly appeared in front of the people and shouted.


    "Ah! The young master''s brocade bag secret skill!" all the Mohist children were delighted and looked at Li Yi in disbelief.


    Behind Li Yi, there was a long motorcade. Looking at the deep ruts, it was obvious that it was full of heavy objects.


    "Village head, are you..." a villager looked at Li Yi puzzled.


    "Of course, I was ordered by the young master to remove the snow! You continue to work, and tomorrow we will transport goods to Chang''an city." Li Yi said.


    With Li Yi''s order, the motorcade started slowly. Piles of snow-white particles on the car were thrown from the carriage and scattered into the snow. They soon melted into the snow and disappeared.


    "This will remove the snow!" the villagers of Mohism looked at the motorcade disappearing in the vast snow and couldn''t touch their heads one by one.


    "The young master said he could!"


    More villagers believed that Merton had never let them down, and then the Mohist villagers continued to work with full confidence.


    It snowed heavily, and the busy brick road was already empty on weekdays. In the cold wind, the team of Mojia village led by Li Yi was moving forward in the snow,


    "Chang''an city is here!"


    Li Yi rubbed his red fingers and looked at the tall city wall in front of him. He couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief.


    "We''ll live in Chang''an City tonight after finishing our work." Li Yi said loudly after watching the heavy snow.


    "All right, village head!"


    All the Mohist children were shocked and immediately stepped up their work. Mohist village has accommodation for Mohist children in Chang''an city. If they live in Chang''an City tonight, they don''t have to go back to Mohist village.


    "Mojia village team?"


    When the team of Mojia village arrived at the south gate, many people running around in the snow were stunned when they saw the team of Mojia village. No one thought that the team of Mojia village would reach Chang''an city at this time.


    In the crowd, a seemingly wandering idle man is not surprised. This man is Lu Shuang''s eye liner. He specifically explored the situation of Mohist village in front of Nancheng gate, and saw the fleet of Mohist village quickly observing.


    "Why are all empty cars?" the idle man wondered when he saw the empty motorcades.


    As the motorcade slowly entered Chang''an City, the idle man suddenly saw that in the last carriage, a large piece of white particles were thrown into the snow behind the carriage.


    "This is..." the idle man quickly came forward and looked at it. He didn''t dare to set the channel immediately.


    "Salt!" then a pedestrian screamed. Obviously, he also found these particles, which turned out to be their common salt.


    "Salt!"


    Many pedestrians were shocked. Although Daqing salt lowered the price of salt in the Tang Dynasty, salt is still valuable among the people in the Tang Dynasty. No one thought that Mojia village would directly sprinkle it on the ground.


    Suddenly, many people lay on the ground and even began to collect salt in the snow. After all, salt is extremely precious to ordinary people, so they naturally don''t want to give up.


    The noise in the rear naturally startled Li Yi. He turned to see the other party collect the salt sprinkled on the ground. Suddenly he remembered Merton''s orders and said with great surprise: "stop, these salt can''t be eaten!"


    However, the people who were collecting salt heard Li Yi''s cry. Instead, they collected more quickly and ignored Li Yi''s warning.


    "Since you don''t want it in Mojia village, won''t you let us eat it!" the idle man asked with a sneer.


    "Yes, yes!"


    "You spread it on the ground, and we found it. It''s ours."


    Many people retorted one after another, and more people were ready to leave with salt in spite of Li Yi''s dissuasion.


    "These salts are poisonous! They can''t be eaten!" Li Yiji shouted.


    "Poisonous!" they were startled. They looked at the salt in their hands and hesitated, but they were reluctant to let them give up the salt.


    The idle man turned his eyes and said, "Mojia village is stingy. He also deceives us that salt is poisonous."


    Many people immediately looked at Li Yi with bad eyes and grasped the salt grains collected in their hands.


    Li Yi reluctantly explained: "this is raw salt, which is mined directly from the shore of the salt lake. It contains a lot of toxins. If you don''t pay attention and eat too much, you will be poisoned. If you don''t believe you can taste it, it tastes very bitter and can''t be eaten at all."


    Raw salt is also the industrial salt of later generations. It is often used for road snow melting in later generations, but it is also a very common industrial raw material. Many industries in Mojia village need industrial salt and store a lot. I didn''t expect that it can be used in snowstorm weather.


    "Raw salt!"


    Ordinary people can''t tell what raw salt is, but when they taste it, they suddenly feel bitter. That''s what Li Yi said. Then they bitterly sprinkle the salt in their hands into the snow again.


    "Then why did you throw these harmful things on the ground!" the idle man said bitterly.


    Li Yi said proudly, "although these salt can''t be eaten, it can melt snow. As long as you sprinkle these raw salt on the road, you can drive normally on the brick road in the south of the city overnight."


    "Salt the snow!"


    "Normal traffic!"


    Although the people in Nancheng gate didn''t believe it, they left one after another after hearing a joke, but the idle man was shocked. He left with the crowd and went back to report immediately.


    Li Yiyou wondered whether these people would continue to come back to collect the salt. Officials in the south of the city stared for a long time until the salt particles slowly melted into the snow and could no longer see the particles, so he returned to Chang''an city.


    But he didn''t know that the news that Mojia village has been salinized with snow in Chang''an City has long been spread. Now, in Chang''an City, as long as the gossip about Mojia village or Mojia Zi will spread all over Chang''an city at the first time, even if it is blocked by heavy snow, it has no slightest impact on this gossip,


    "Salt melts snow, and salt melts snow? I only know that the Mohists used snow to describe salt!" many people sneered. Obviously, the influence of the crooked poem that Merton advertised for snow and salt is still there.


    "The black sheep! The Mohist is indeed a black sheep!"


    Gossip is spreading, and it is adding oil and vinegar. Raw salt directly becomes snow salt. Don''t think this wonderful thing can only come from the hands of Mohists. Many people were so distressed that they couldn''t help scolding the black sheep of Merton''s family.


    If the black sheep are placed on anyone, I''m afraid they hate iron but don''t become steel. However, once they talk about Merton, they are in a different state of mind. After scolding, they will always think more.


    Because everyone knows that once the black sheep of the Mohist family get up, they will never be soft, but after observing the black sheep of the Mohist family, you find that compared with the upcoming harvest, the black sheep of the Mohist family is simply the most cost-effective business in the world.


    At the grand event in the western regions, the Mohists spent a lot of money. Countless Hu merchants worked for the Tang Dynasty, which is equivalent to countless Bo Wang Hou running for the Tang Dynasty and bringing endless benefits to the Tang Dynasty,


    The construction of brick roads in the south of the city was denounced by the public as a loser. However, it not only exempted Mojia village from ten years of corvee, but also opened the brick road era in the Tang Dynasty, benefiting the whole world.


    Today, the Mohist family once again acts as a loser. Although it is said that the raw salt is as cheap as soil in the salt lake, after all, the freight alone is not a small amount when it is transported back from so far away. It can be seen that the map of the Mohist village is not small.

 Chapter 661

    "I don''t believe it. A little salt can melt the snow! In my opinion, the Mohist school is just in a hurry to seek medical treatment!" Lu Shuang said flatly when he heard the report from the idle man.


    It''s a wonder in the world. How could he accept such unheard of things.


    "That''s not a little salt, but the salt of a convoy!" the idle man said in his heart, but he looked at Lu Shuang, who looked uneasy, but didn''t say it.


    "That''s not necessarily. According to the rumor, the Mohist school is very evil, and it seems easy for him to do things that are impossible in the hands of ordinary people." Zheng open said with a worried face.


    They are in a good situation at the moment. He doesn''t want any accidents.


    "We''ll see if we can melt the snow tomorrow." Lu Shuang said with a gloomy face. Although he didn''t believe it, according to the evil nature of the Mexican family, he always felt a dark cloud.


    Lu Shuang and others may not believe the Mo family, but for the people of Chang''an City, they know that Merton never does anything uncertain. Since he dares to sprinkle salt on the brick road, I''m afraid he must have enough assurance.


    "Brother Mo, you can''t see through!" Chai Lingwu sighed when he heard the report from his servant.


    "I knew it would!"


    Qin Huaiyu, who was grounded, heard the news and almost didn''t make an appointment at the same time.


    The next day, it was just dawn! In front of the Nancheng gate, there were almost servants of all families and some good people. When the Nancheng gate was opened, they poured out of the Nancheng gate and looked at everything in front of them in surprise.


    On the brick road in the south of the city, the snow is half as low. Even in some low-lying places, a lot of snow has become snow water, which forms a huge contrast with the thick ice layer in Zhuque Avenue.


    "It''s true!" everyone stared at everything in front of them.


    "The Mohist is still the Mohist!" someone sighed in the crowd and immediately said to everyone''s heart.


    Everyone nodded silently.


    "Look, the carriage in Mojia village!" suddenly a man pointed to the official road in the south of the city and exclaimed.


    They suddenly looked up and saw a huge motorcade coming on the official road in the south of the city. After sprinkling salt and melting snow overnight, the snow on the brick road was not enough to hinder the progress of the carriage. Under the rolling of heavy wheels, the melting of snow was accelerated and turned into snow water with ice slag. Even if the weather was cold and not frozen, the carriage would not slip.


    "I''m afraid Mojia village will fight back!" many people suddenly moved in their hearts.


    Because of this blizzard, even the brick road has a thick layer of ice and snow, which is impassable. Only the motorcade of Mojia village can travel unimpeded to and from Chang''an City, that is, before the snow on the brick road is melted, the goods of Mojia village will dominate the whole Chang''an City market in Chang''an city.


    People looked at the gloomy sky and began to be full of falling snowflakes. They sighed in their hearts that the heavy snow could not stop in a short time.


    The new year is approaching, and it is the peak season. When a truck of goods from Mojia village pour into Chang''an City, it can not meet the needs of the people in Chang''an City, while other shops are blocked by heavy snow, but they can''t be transported at all. After the only inventory is exhausted, they can only watch the Mojia village gradually encroach on the market, and the prosperity of daily income is envious.


    "Mojiazi!"


    With the bad news coming, Lu Shuang was going crazy. Who could have thought that the Mo family had come up with this crooked move.


    Zheng Chang was speechless. Who in the world could be so boring that he could connect salt and snow? How strange the Mohists should be. At this time, he believed how evil the Mohists were.


    "Send a message to the major workshops. Even if they hire people, they will also bring the goods to Chang''an city." Lu Shuangli said.


    "Yes!" a servant hurried away.


    Zheng Chang said helplessly, "it''s very difficult to walk because of the heavy snow. I''m afraid it''s a drop in the bucket to transport to Chang''an city."


    "As long as we can create obstacles for Mojia village, we have to work so hard. Of course, we can''t lose our power to collapse!" Lu Shuang said gnashing his teeth.


    Zheng Chang nodded and said, "now, it''s the only way."


    After another arrangement, Lu Shuang suddenly asked coldly, "by the way, your sister went to see Princess Zheng in the palace again."


    Zheng Chang was stunned. He quickly nodded and said, "Oh! This is not the end of the new year. I''m about to return to Luoyang. Younger sister, I''m not going to say goodbye to Princess Zheng."


    Lu Shuang nodded silently. Now the queen is almost half open for Li Shimin''s draft. Miss Zheng''s frequent entry into the palace can''t he have no guess in his heart.


    But to let him point out the matter, he immediately had no courage in his heart. After Zheng Chang left for a long time, Lu Shuang roared: "the Mexican family, blame you for my good deeds!"


    Facing the imperial power, he even had the courage to point out the matter, and could only vent all his resentment on Merton.


    In the Changle palace.


    Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang surrounded Princess Changle and shouted from time to time.


    "What are you playing? You are so happy!" Li Shimin smiled and walked into the Changle palace.


    "Father emperor, we are salinizing snow!" Li Zhi saw Li Shimin coming and quickly offered a treasure. Princess Jinyang threw herself into Li Shimin''s arms, and Li Shimin picked it up with pity.


    "Salt the snow!" Li Shimin felt a move in his heart. He naturally got the news about the storm with the Mohists and walked in curiously.


    "See your father!" Changle bowed and saluted.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "no gift."


    Li Zhi seemed to point to a large snow waterway on the ground: "look, father, this is the snow sprinkled by his son and minister with salt just now. It took only a while for so much Kung Fu to melt."


    Li Shimin looked at the little salt pot left by Li Zhi''s hand and couldn''t help but draw it from the corner of his mouth. Merton used cheap raw salt like soil, while Li Zhi used fine salt from Imperial tribute, which was even worse than Merton.


    "It''s incredible that salt has such a wonderful effect." Li Shimin was surprised to see this phenomenon of salinizing snow with his own eyes.


    Princess Changle covered her mouth and said with a smile, "this is not the case of Merton''s western expedition. I heard that Tuyuhun''s land is bitter and cold, but the freezing period of the salt lake is very short, and there is almost no snow on the salt beach. Only then did she know that salt water is not easy to freeze, so she introduced the matter of salt beach."


    Since Merton thought of the idea of salinizing snow, naturally he would not hide Princess Changle. He had already written to Princess Changle to explain in detail.


    "The child also took two pots of water yesterday to do the experiment. One pot of water put salt and the other pot of water didn''t put salt. Sure enough, it put salt and didn''t freeze." Princess Jinyang in Li Shimin''s arms said proudly.


    "I didn''t think she would do the experiment!" Li Shimin looked at Princess Jinyang and said.


    The princess of Jinyang said proudly, "that''s right. I''m a man who has recovered the ink square. I''m a genuine Mohist child."


    Looking at the charming and naive look of Princess Jinyang, Li Shimin immediately laughed, but there was a trace of regret in his heart. He thought it was a magical means to salinize snow, but he didn''t think it was so simple.


    But to be simple, it can surpass the sky with manpower and burst out with incredible potential.


    "Mohism! Ink skills!" Li Shimin sighed with a flash in his eyes.

 Chapter 662

    "Your Majesty, there is news from the counties around Chang''an city that many places have been hit by snow!" soon after Li Shimin was in Changle palace, pound hurried to report.


    "Snow disaster!!"


    Looking at the thick snow on the eaves of the Changle palace, Li Shimin''s heart sank.


    Pound bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the blizzard was very sudden, and the snow was thick. Even many houses in Chang''an City were collapsed. Sanyuan county was the hardest hit among all counties."


    Li Shimin knows that most people are thatched huts. I''m afraid only a village like Mojia village will not suffer from such a heavy snowfall. I''m afraid the other villages will be damaged to varying degrees.


    "Send orders to all counties to immediately organize people to clean the snow on the roof and make sure to resettle the victims," Li Shimin ordered.


    "Yes!" pound immediately went down to give orders.


    "Father, it''s freezing now. I''m afraid the affected people can''t last long. Let the Red Cross organize people to participate in the rescue!" Princess Changle said anxiously.


    "So good!" Li Shimin solemnly nodded. Now the Red Cross Society has participated in various disasters and played more and more roles, which has been highly praised by the people.


    Soon the news about the snow disaster in Sanyuan spread all over Chang''an city. Chang''an ordered Su Luosheng to personally lead the Yamen soldiers to investigate the dangerous houses in Chang''an City and arrange all workshops to clean the snow in the cold.


    "It''s really cold in this damn weather!" Su Luo stamped his feet coldly. As a county magistrate, he can naturally afford fur clothes. However, it''s official time now. If he appears in Chang''an City in fur clothes, he may be played in court by the imperial historian the next day!


    Other yamen servants are also gnashing their teeth to support and command the people to clean the snow on the roof in the severe cold. After all, this is the task of your majesty. They can only gnash their teeth to support, especially at the foot of the emperor. There can be no mistakes.


    "The new cotton padded clothes and quilts from Mojia village are the best things to keep out the cold, so that you won''t be cold this winter!"


    Suddenly a cry of selling attracted the attention of the people of Chang''an County Government.


    "Cotton padded clothes, quilt!"


    "Something to keep out the cold!"


    However, ordinary people don''t know cotton padded clothes and quilts, but how can suluosheng know that the most important reason why the imperial court passed Merton''s Tang silk system is that cotton is about to be popularized. How can he not get the news that mojiazi personally persuaded his ministers with cotton padded clothes and quilts.


    "This is the cotton padded clothes that Mo Jijiu said! How much is it?"


    Su Luosheng curiously went to the peddler''s son of Mohism and looked at the strange cotton padded clothes in front of him. He saw that the style of this cotton padded clothes was very long and could even cover his knees. If someone in later generations were here, I''m afraid he would despise Merton''s evil taste. Isn''t this a common military coat in later generations? The time left for Mojia village is limited. In order to prepare goods as much as possible, Merton simply asked Mojia village to produce only this style of cotton clothes, and designated the color as military green.


    "It''s the magistrate of Su County!" behind the children of Mohism, Xu Jie flashed his eyes and walked out to salute.


    "Two hundred pence for a cotton coat and three hundred pence for a quilt!" Xu Jie asked the Mohist children to greet others and personally introduced them to Su Luosheng.


    "Two hundred Wen a piece!" suluosheng frowned. The price is not cheap! It is almost equivalent to the income of ordinary citizens in a month.


    Xu Jie naturally understood Su Luosheng''s idea, picked up a military green cotton coat and said: "This coat is warmer than fur clothes, but the price is less than half of fur clothes. You can wear it to keep warm during the day, and it can be used as a quilt when you sleep at night! And this quilt is warmer than silk quilt, and the price is less than 30% of silk quilt. It can be said that the price is fair!"


    You should know that fur clothes and silk quilts are expensive, and only dignitaries can have them. I''m afraid ordinary people can only fill hemp clothes with something to keep out the cold during the winter. Even in the Tang Dynasty, paper clothes were very popular. Paper clothes specially thickened to keep out the cold are called "paper fur" , the raw materials are usually sewn with thick and strong paper, which is tough and durable. It can not only wear well, but also withstand the wind and cold. In addition, it is cheap. It is a necessary thing for poor people to go out.


    When Su Luosheng was a child, he aggravated his hardship by wearing paper clothes to keep out the cold. When he saw the cotton coat, his heart suddenly moved. If it was really as Xu Jie said, it might be the best thing to keep out the cold all winter.


    "This thing really keeps out the cold as you said!" Su Luosheng said. The warmth keeping effect of this thing is comparable to that of fur clothes, but it is not luxurious. In this way, it solves the problem of warmth keeping without being criticized by the court. It is simply sleepy and sent to the pillow.


    "You will know as soon as you try!" Xu Jie said confidently.


    The biggest advantage of the military coat is that it can be worn directly outside. The thick military coat is draped over Su Luosheng''s shoulder, which immediately blocks the cold wind from his body, and his trembling body immediately warms up.


    "Sure enough, it''s the best way to keep out the cold!" Su Luosheng praised. It''s lighter than paper fur and as warm as fur clothes.


    "Magistrate Su and all of you, it''s really a blessing for the people to rush for the people and treat the snow disaster regardless of the wind and snow. I admire it. I''d like to present some cotton padded clothes as a token of respect." Xu Jie heard that cotton padded clothes are new, and the people don''t know much about them. If we can let Su Luosheng and these yamen wear them and run around the streets, it''s no less than a live advertisement.


    Su Luosheng laughed and said, "it''s not necessary. Although I''m honest, I can afford 200 Wen. Moreover, I''ve heard about the situation of Mojia village. You''re welcome."


    As soon as suluosheng waved, a servant immediately sent two coins of silver.


    Xu Jie was not modest and accepted the Tao directly. "Thank you, sir. I also care about the victims of the snow disaster in Mojia village. The young master said that every time I sell a cotton padded jacket and quilt, I will donate ten Wen to the victims to show my heart."


    "Mohou has a heart. If the world is like mohou, our country will be peaceful and the people will live and work in peace and contentment!" Su Luosheng said sincerely.


    "I''m flattered," said Xu Jie politely.


    With Su Luosheng''s leadership, all the Yamen servants were immediately armed with a military green coat and ran through the streets of Chang''an City, just like a beautiful scenery in the cold wind.


    Soon, the warmth preservation effect of cotton coats immediately spread throughout Chang''an city. In the severe cold, many citizens who could not afford fur clothes and silk quilts immediately heard the wind and went directly to Mohist boutiques.


    Soon, cotton padded clothes and quilts were sold one by one. Word of mouth said that everyone praised their warmth preservation effect. In addition, the Red Cross donated ten Wen for each piece in Mojia village, which made the reputation of cotton padded clothes and quilts burst,


    Warm people and warm hearts, making this cold winter suddenly more warm.

 Chapter 663

    Although Luoyang relies on the Grand Canal, its economy continues to rise and constantly challenges the position of Chang''an, at the moment, Chang''an city is still the richest place in the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, with the construction of brick road, the transportation of Chang''an city is greatly convenient, and the smooth silk road makes the future prospect of Chang''an City higher.


    The price of cotton padded clothes and quilts is just within the acceptance range of the people in Chang''an city. Cotton is warm and soft. It is the best thing to keep out the cold. This has been confirmed by later generations. No one who has touched cotton padded clothes and quilts has been conquered by it.


    The transportation vehicles of Mojia village, treading on the cold snow and water, went back and forth to Chang''an city without fatigue. This is probably the busiest road in the north of Datang. The full vehicles of cotton clothes and quilts had just been unloaded, and then they were robbed by the people of Chang''an city. Under the full production of Mojia village, the supply is still in short supply.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Lord Wei looked at the cotton padded clothes and quilts in front of him and couldn''t help hating them in his heart. The Wei family is the largest cloth merchant in Chang''an city. Naturally, they also manage fur clothes and silk quilts to keep out the cold. For this winter, the Wei family has deliberately hoarded a lot of fur clothes to make a lot of money. However, the popularity of cotton coats in Mojia village completely bankrupt the Wei family''s wealth plan.


    Compared with high-quality and cheap cotton coats, the high price of fur clothes does not have any advantage at all, let alone expensive silk quilts. Since the emergence of cotton clothes and quilts in Chang''an City, the Wei family''s fur clothes and silk quilts can''t be sold at all. It should have been the peak season, but now it''s even off-season than the off-season.


    "Father, don''t worry. Mojia village has only 1000 mu of cotton. Even if some cotton is shipped back from Gaochang and other countries, it doesn''t matter if there is not much inventory." Wei Si''an comforted.


    "But now the heavy snow is blocked, and the cotton padded clothes and quilts in Mojia village can only be sold in Chang''an city. When Mojia village is sold out, how many people in Chang''an city do you think need fur clothes!" Lord Wei said helplessly. At this moment, he hopes that the brick road can be unblocked quickly. Every night and one day, the fur market in Chang''an city will shrink.


    "My father didn''t worry about the temporary failure. I didn''t expect that Mojia village was forced to hurry and took the initiative to light up the cotton. My father can guarantee that once the news of cotton warmth comes out, the price of fur and silk will fall sharply, which is the most fatal." the Lord Wei said with a worried face.


    When Wei Si settled down, his face changed greatly and he said in a surprised voice, "that''s the goods we stored up before."


    Taking advantage of Tuyuhun''s victory, the Wei family hoarded a lot of fur and silk. If the price plummeted, the Wei family must have suffered heavy losses.


    "It''s a big loss!" Lord Wei said helplessly.


    It''s not just Wei''s family leader. As soon as the cotton padded clothes and quilts are out, the cloth merchants are all sad. They gnash their teeth and say:


    "Mojiazi!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Hahaha, Mozi is really a catfish. It hurts!" Chai Lingwu laughed when he got the news.


    "Young master, you don''t know. This cotton coat is so popular. Almost every family in Chang''an City has one piece. It''s said that many court officials also wear cotton coats." the Chai mansion housekeeper smiled. Shanghu people don''t lack warm things at all. The main force of this purchase is almost middle-class people in Chang''an city.


    "That''s natural. In front of your majesty, which official dares to wear silk, satin, mink fur and leather clothes. At the moment, when the cotton coat comes out, the price is moderate and extremely warm. Isn''t it right? But this time it''s cheaper for the Mexican family and made a lot of money!" Chai Lingwu sneered.


    The minds of all officials in the court were similar to those of Su Luosheng, but once the news that all the people in the court were wearing cotton coats came out, it contributed to the upsurge of cotton coats, and even many upper class families couldn''t help buying them.


    As the childe of the Chai family, Chai Lingwu naturally doesn''t need mink fur to keep warm, and he doesn''t need a cotton coat. However, he started with a set of quilt, and the experience is excellent. It''s really a good thing to keep out the cold.


    "That''s right! Young master, there''s news from the family. I want the young master to find a way to get some cotton seeds!" the Chai family housekeeper suddenly said.


    "Oh! Those old guys are also interested in cotton!" Chai Lingwu raised his eyebrows.


    The housekeeper of Chai mansion smiled bitterly when he saw the young master''s attitude towards the family, but he dutifully said: "a cotton coat sold for 200 Wen, but it''s only a few kilograms. According to mojiazi, cotton per mu can harvest hundreds of kilograms of cotton. In this way, it''s more cost-effective than farming."


    Chai Lingwu sneered: "that''s because the Mojia village has cotton. If cotton is planted everywhere, people can plant it themselves. Who will buy it!"


    The Chai family housekeeper said helplessly, "the cotton in Mojia village is only 1000 mu now. I''m afraid it can only supply Chang''an and Luoyang. Datang still has such a large blank area. Planting cotton will surely make no loss in a short time."


    The north is not very suitable for sericulture, and the yield is not high. However, if it is suitable for planting cotton, it may be another source of wealth.


    Chai Lingwu said impatiently, "well, I know. After spring, young master will naturally bring back a batch of cotton seeds from the western regions!"


    Now all the cotton seeds in the Tang Dynasty are in the hands of Mojia village. I''m afraid it will cost a lot if they are in the hands of Mojia village. It''s just that the chamber of Commerce of the western regions is going to the western regions. Naturally, it''s not very difficult to collect a batch of cotton seeds.


    Fu Bo nodded, hesitated and said, "there''s another news. The childe from Luoyang saw that the situation was wrong and has begun to close the net in advance. Do we want to help?"


    Among the forces that jointly encircled and suppressed the Mojia village this time, the Shandong aristocratic family was the main force, and the Guanlong aristocratic family cooperated. After all, the interests of the Mojia village were too great. How can these aristocratic families not be excited? Lu Shuang saw that the Mojia village was constantly accumulating wealth, and he decided to start in advance for fear of late or change.


    Chai Lingwu thought and asked, "do you think they can succeed?"


    "Eh!" the Chai family housekeeper suddenly thought that according to his idea, no one could resist the joint encirclement and suppression of so many aristocratic families, but the Chai family housekeeper was overwhelmed by the endless means of Mohism.


    "Don''t worry about others. My Chai family won''t do anything this time. After all, Merton helped the Chai family once in the military parade. If we fall into the well, I''m afraid it will damage our Chai family''s reputation." Chai Lingwu shook his head.


    With Chai Lingwu''s dandy character, how can he care about the reputation of the Chai family? If he can really carve up the Mojia village or control the Mojia village, he will naturally spare no effort. However, comparing the miraculous Mojia Zi with Zheng Lu, Chai Lingwu involuntarily tends to the Merton side.


    "I know how to do it!" the Chai family housekeeper bowed.


    The Chai family didn''t make a move and didn''t stop Lu Shuang''s determination to kill Mojia village. The snow had just stopped and the weather had just cleared up. The news of major businesses jointly pressing for debt from Mojia village spread all over Chang''an City in an instant.

 Chapter 664

    Although other industries in Mojia village have been impacted and their business is bleak, the champion building has long been famous, but it is almost unaffected and still very popular.


    However, today''s fish champion building is particularly deserted. The door is closed and no longer receives guests! However, in the lobby of yuzhuangyuan building, the atmosphere is dignified.


    "Everyone! If Xu remembers well, a year ago today, Mojia village and you signed the agency agreement to solve Qianchou. I didn''t expect that after only one year, we should get together again. This is the end." Xu Jie sighed at the dealers who solve Qianchou in front of him.


    "Shopkeeper Xu has a good memory, but shopkeeper Xu should also remember that there is a clause in the original agreement that once we no longer act as an agent to solve thousands of worries, Mojia village will return the deposit in full!" a tall and thin shopkeeper got up and said. This person is shopkeeper Zhang, the agent of solving Qianchou in Luoyang. At the beginning, several big businessmen who jointly acted as the agent of solving Qianchou had countless ties with Luoyang aristocratic families. The dealers in Luoyang were the most ruthless to force Mojia village this time.


    "Yes, not only the deposit, but also our scheduled solution to thousands of worries will be recovered at the original price." luojingxiashi, a dealer in Huainan Road, said.


    The dealers of Jiangnan Road, Jiannan road and Hedong road can''t help but agree with the road one after another. Obviously, they have been united together for a long time. With such a huge momentum, the dealers of other roads can''t help shaking their hearts.


    Xu Jie suddenly understood the current situation and solemnly said, "as far as Xu knows, acting as an agent to solve thousands of worries has brought you a lot of wealth. Even Henan Dao has made no less than these five thousand passes! I''m afraid the world will be puzzled if it is spread!"


    Shopkeeper Zhang sneered: "I admit that the original solution to Qianchou really made a lot of money. However, at the moment, the secret brewing skills of Mojia village have been leaked, and the advantages of Mojia village are no longer there. It is said that Qianchou is brewed with poisonous food. Now Qianchou can''t be sold. Why should we hang from this tree?"


    "Yes, even if the new year is approaching, you can''t sell thousands of worries!" the dealer on Hedong road frowned.


    Xu Jie retorted: "these are rumors. The food produced by the use of pesticides in Mojia village has not been spread, but focuses on the consumption of Mojia children by themselves. It doesn''t matter at all. To be honest, even Xu and even mohou eat the food produced by the use of pesticides every day, which doesn''t matter at all."


    Shopkeeper Zhang said with a smile, "we naturally believe in shopkeeper Xu and mohou, but the people all over the world don''t believe it! Now we can''t sell our worries. Naturally, we don''t have to support here."


    "Haven''t you heard the news that mohou has mobilized a large number of sorghum from the Tubo plateau. In the future, the raw materials for brewing Qianchou will be the best sorghum in the world. The dilemma of solving Qianchou is only temporary." Xu Jie continued to argue.


    Other dealers who did not propose to cancel the agency could not help nodding. Although there was the impact of other fine wines, Xie Qianchou is still the most famous wine in the world, which can not recover the glory of last year.


    Shopkeeper Zhang shook his head and said, "it''s just a possibility. No one can tell. I won''t accompany you later. The Mohist school should leave such a good opportunity to make a fortune to others!"


    The other four dealers looked at each other, nodded vigorously and stood on the side of shopkeeper Zhang. Their purpose was not to ask for money, but to force the of Mojia village into a desperate situation.


    Xu Jie must have a deep heart. He knows that it''s no good to say more. In fact, he knows the purpose of these people. The reason why he says so much is to stabilize the other five dealers.


    "In that case, Mojia village will naturally abide by the contract, return your deposit as agreed, and recover the unsold jieqianchou at the original price. However, it is a pity that the new version of jieqianchou to be released by Mojia village will not be with you." Xu Jie said with regret.


    "The new version solves thousands of worries!" shopkeeper Zhang was stunned, and other dealers also looked at Xu Jie.


    Xu Jie picked up a brand-new box from behind, stretched out his hand to open it, and suddenly a bottle of very familiar jieqianchou appeared in front of everyone.


    Xu Jie took out Xie Qianchou, then took out two transparent wine cups from the package and put them in front of the people.


    "Night glass cup!" people can not help but be shocked. However, the market night glasses are mostly drinking wine, which is relatively small, and is obviously prepared for baijiu.


    "Yes, the latest version of jieqianchou will have two glass wine cups in each bottle, and the price is only 80% of the original, and there will be no more glass wine cups on the market!" Xu Jie said proudly.


    Zheng and Qian had a stir in their hearts. The most important reason why jieqianchou was able to sell at a high price was its uniqueness. After the leakage of brewing secret technology, the advantage of jieqianchou disappeared, which gradually declined. The emergence of glass wine cup once brought jieqianchou back to a unique situation.


    "In addition to this conventional solution to thousands of worries, Mojia village will also launch a crystal solution to thousands of worries." Xu Jie said confidently.


    "Crystal solves thousands of worries!"


    Under the gaze of the crowd, Xu Jie opened a bottle of jieqianchou again and took out a crystal clear jieqianchou. He saw that all the wine bottles of jieqianchou were made of transparent glass, which could clearly see that the liquor in the bottle was extremely clear.


    "This!"


    The Qian family leader couldn''t believe looking at the crystal in front of him to solve Qianchou. Once this wine is launched, I''m afraid its effect is no less than that when it first came out.


    "What''s the price of this crystal to solve thousands of worries!" the money owner asked involuntarily.


    "It''s still a bottle of money!" Xu Jie said confidently.


    This time, all the dealers nodded involuntarily. With such creativity alone, this wine is really worth the price! You should know that most of the wine in Datang is still in jars. At best, it is just ceramic. Mojia village even uses the most precious glass to hold the wine, which immediately raises the value of relieving thousands of worries. At this moment, everyone believed that Xu Jie vowed that the rise of Xie Qianchou again was not empty. Once the sorghum from the Tibetan Plateau was transported to Mojia village, the only weakness of Xie Qianchou would be made up. I''m afraid there is no other wine in Datang that can compete with the best raw materials, exquisite packaging and the reputation of the best wine in the world.


    Shopkeeper Zhang and others immediately looked embarrassed. They immediately knew that they had made a huge mistake and gave away so much money.


    "Agent of Henan Road, I want my old money!" suddenly, the voice of Qian''s owner resounded through the audience.


    "Master Qian!" shopkeeper Zhang suddenly looked angry at master Qian. He didn''t expect that master Qian should publicly dismantle the platform.


    "Why, manager Zhang has given up acting to solve thousands of worries, and does not allow others to act as agents?" Qian said without fear. In this era, every businessman who can become big has such great power. Although Shandong aristocratic family has great power, in front of interests, Qian family owner will not care about these.


    He used to control the business of guanneidao jointly with the Zheng family. How can he be satisfied with half of the profits? Now he will not miss such a good opportunity.


    The Zheng family leader secretly regretted that he was a little late. The market in Luoyang is not inferior to the supermarket in Chang''an city. It is conceivable that other profits were robbed by the Qian family leader.


    "Jiannan Lu wants it!" suddenly, a businessman surnamed Lu, a dealer in Lingnan Road, said and grabbed another one.


    The businessman surnamed Lu was originally the weakest, but after he managed to solve thousands of worries, his capital soared. In addition to Lingnan Road, he also took advantage of the proximity of Lingnan road and southern countries to sell to Lingnan countries, making a lot of profits. Jiannan road is closer to Tubo and Nanzhao. He can completely control the markets of the whole southern countries alone. He will not give up such a layout anyway.


    Shopkeeper Zhang''s face suddenly sank and suddenly found that the situation was a little out of control. If this continues, I''m afraid they can''t do any harm to Mojia village today.


    The remaining three dealers are in a panic. The revival of relieving thousands of worries can be expected. If he gives this cornucopia to others, he will be unwilling, but he dare not break his previous commitment to encircle and suppress Mojia village.


    "We''ll take the rest of the Tang Dynasty three ways!" suddenly uncle Qin''s voice sounded in the fish champion building. I saw two people in the same dress standing up beside uncle Qin, who were impressively the housekeepers of Cheng''s house and Yuchi''s house


    "It''s uncle Qin!" Xu Jie bowed quickly.


    "Marquis Mo doesn''t want the three governments to help. We can understand that, but we''re just doing a business today to make a living for the villagers of Qinjia village. Marquis Mo shouldn''t object to this!" Qin Bolang laughed.


    "So do we!" the housekeepers of Cheng''s house and Yuchi''s house said in unison.


    "Thank you for your love! You will not be disappointed!" Xu Jie took a deep breath and saluted the three respectfully. Now, if Mojia village refuses again, it will be too shameful.


    "Three national governments!" when shopkeeper Zhang and others learned their identities, their faces changed impressively.


    If it were the three feudal agents of the government to solve Qianchou, they didn''t even have the courage to make trouble. They didn''t expect that stealing chickens today would not erode rice. They not only gave people a treasure pot to solve Qianchou, but also didn''t cause any loss to Mojia village.


    "Next batch!"


    When shopkeeper Zhang all walked out of the yuzhuangyuan building dejectedly, with the cry of a Mohist child, a group of suppliers from Mohist village entered the yuzhuangyuan building. Soon, these suppliers walked out of the yuzhuangyuan building with full payment.


    However, although these suppliers got the money, they didn''t have the slightest joy on their faces, because they knew that from now on, they were afraid that they would be blacklisted by Mojia village and would never cooperate with Mojia village again. If Mojia village got through the difficulties this time, their own reputation would be stained with difficulty.


    Reasonably speaking, Mojia village is a very rare big customer with generous hand and good faith. No business is willing to make enemies with it, but now they have no way back.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the restaurant not far from the fish champion building, shopkeeper Zhang knelt trembling in front of Lu Shuang and Zheng open.


    "Waste!" Lu Shuang said ferociously. He didn''t expect to save 25000 yuan in Mojia village.


    "Young master, I didn''t expect that Mojia village still has this card." shopkeeper Zhang said helplessly. Anyone can see that the status of solving Qianchou is shaky. Who can think that Mojia Zi applied his unique glass secret skills to solving Qianchou and turned the situation around all of a sudden.


    "Brother Lu, what should I do?" Zheng Chang panicked.


    Lu Shuang said coldly, "don''t worry. The situation of Mojia village is under our control. There is absolutely no so much money in Mojia village now!"


    The reason why he started ahead of time is that Merton''s means are constant, and he really doesn''t dare to wait. Second, he firmly believes that the Mojia village must not have so much money at the moment. Once the cash flow of the Mojia village is exhausted, the Mojia village will fall down the wall and be pushed by everyone, and there will be no chance to turn over.


    "I hope so!" Zheng opened his heart and said slightly.


    However, to their disappointment, in the yuzhuangyuan building, suppliers went to Mojia village to settle them one by one, and then the payment received by Mojia village was sent to Lu Shuang one by one.


    With a pen, shopkeeper Zhang wrote hard on rice paper and calculated the total amount of payment in Mojia village.


    "Mojia village is running out of money!" suddenly shopkeeper Zhang said excitedly.


    "Seriously?" Lu Shuang said with ecstasy.


    "No mistake! I carefully calculated the money earned by Mojia village recently, and then subtracted the payment for goods just now. Now Mojia village has at most thousands of passes, which is far from enough to pay for the later payment." shopkeeper Zhang affirmed.


    "Hahaha, Mojia Zi, you have today!" Lu Shuang laughed. He raised money in many ways and arranged one after another. Finally, he was about to defeat the famous Mojia Zi. This spontaneous sense of achievement immediately filled him with pride.


    Zheng Chang was also relieved. Thinking of the huge benefits he was about to get, he couldn''t help looking at Lu Shuang with a little guilt. He didn''t know whether her decision to enter the palace was correct.


    "Come on, continue to borrow money from Mojia village!" Lu Shuang couldn''t wait. He couldn''t wait to see the failure of Mojia Zi.


    "Er, er, it''s late now. Mojia village has stopped checking out and said to continue tomorrow!" shopkeeper Zhang opened his mouth.


    "Ah!"


    Lu Shuang suddenly lost his voice like a duck pinched by his neck. At this time, he found that it was late unconsciously, but he subconsciously ignored it under the white snow.


    He intended to continue to press for debt, but the reason of Mojia village was very justified, so that he couldn''t pick out any thorn.


    "It must be Xu Jie, who deliberately calculated the time." shopkeeper Zhang said angrily. Now he is gnashing his teeth at Xu Jie, who made him ashamed.


    "Brother Lu, it''s only one night. Can the Mohists make money out of thin air?" Zheng Chang said indifferently.


    Lu Shuang solemnly shook his head and said, "the Mohist village is full of tricks. We can''t help it. However, since the Mohist village wants to delay, the young master will let him lose more than he gains. Come and spread the news that the Mohist village is about to run out of money all over Chang''an city. At that time, I''m afraid there will be more people urging accounts. This time, I''ll let the Mohist feel that stealing chicken can''t eat rice."


    "Young master, wise!" shopkeeper Zhang repeatedly complimented.


    When night fell, the news that mojiazi was about to close down spread all over Chang''an city again. This time, it was more reasonable and justified, and it touched the bottom of the current capital situation of Mojia village.


    For a moment, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.

 Chapter 665

    "Mojia village has no money!"


    The news spread wildly in every corner of Chang''an city. The dark night covered the light of the world, and all kinds of dark ideas spread rapidly.


    Since ancient times, there are not many people who give help in the snow, but there are many people who fall into the well. I don''t know how many people admire the rapid rise of Mojia village. However, when people hear the situation of Mojia village, they can''t help sighing.


    In addition, the business community in Chang''an city is silent. With the example of Xu''s business, Mojia village is about to repeat the mistakes. Is there really no place for businessmen in the Tang Dynasty?


    You should know that Mojia village is not an ordinary business, but an integration of industry and commerce. Mojia is famous in ancient times, and Mojia Zi has a unique position in the dynasty hall. Rao is so, but he still can''t escape this fate. How should ordinary businesses deal with themselves.


    Guozijian.


    When Kong Yingda heard the report from his servant, he couldn''t help being silent. As a descendant of Confucius and a representative of Confucianism, he never thought that in his generation, he had encountered a problem that countless ancestors had never encountered, that is, the rise of Mohism.


    A Mohist school that disappeared for nearly a thousand years but suddenly burst into endless potential suddenly appeared in front of Confucianism, which led to the rise of a hundred schools of thought and the resurgence of a hundred schools of thought. The source of all this points to Mohist School and Mohist village.


    "If Mohism can get through this, Confucianism may have to re-examine Mohism." Kong Yingda took a deep breath. If Mojia village is a flash in the pan and can''t cross this pass, even if it is lucky to survive, it is just controlled by others, I''m afraid it will never threaten the strength of Confucianism again.


    "Hahaha! Mohist you have today!" in the room separated by a wall, Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, said excitedly. He can say that he has always been unhappy with Merton. Now that Merton is unlucky, he is naturally very excited.


    In Chang''an City, there are many people who don''t like Merton. They can''t help gloating and celebrating one after another.


    However, the undercurrent surged in Chang''an City, but the Mo mansion was calm, as if the rumors outside had nothing to do with them, and there was no panic and turmoil.


    "Brother Mo, you can see that the Mojia village is in great danger!"


    In the living room of Mo mansion, Chai Lingwu said anxiously.


    Merton looked at Chai Lingwu calmly and said, "why, does brother Chai also want to fall into the well?"


    Chai Lingwu laughed and said, "brother Mo, I''m kidding. The Mojia village has made a lot of contributions to the people all over the world. I admire it very much. Now the Mojia village has encountered difficulties, so I can''t ignore it."


    "So brother Chai has a way to save Mojia village?" said Merton.


    Chai Lingwu said with a straight face, "little brother, it''s for this."


    Morton immediately looked happy and said, "brother Chai is really a righteous man. Now it only takes 70000 Guan in Mojia village to get through this pass. Please help brother Chai."


    Chai Lingwu''s face suddenly stiffened and said, "brother Mo, this is a little brother. 70000 Guan, let alone a little brother, even the whole Chai family can''t take it out!"


    "Brother Chai, this is for fun! The chamber of Commerce in the western regions is rich and powerful, and 70000 Guan should keep doing something!" Merton looked at Chai Lingwu in front of him with a stiff face.


    Chai Lingwu said with a helpless smile: "brother Mo is joking. The chamber of Commerce in the western regions can indeed take out 70000 Guan. However, this is not the money of my little brother alone. My little brother can''t be the master."


    "Did brother Chai come here today to see his little brother''s jokes?" Morton''s face changed.


    Chai Lingwu suddenly whispered, "of course not. Although I can''t move the money for no reason, I can also explain to others if there is a mortgage in Mojia village!"


    "Mortgage, I don''t know what brother Chai likes in Mo''s house. Just take it!" Merton''s eyes flashed, and then he understood the purpose of Chai Lingwu''s coming today.


    "Brother Mo''s house is mostly his favorite. How can I win the favor of others? If brother Mo can take all the cotton seeds and cotton and glass secrets as collateral, I promise I can convince the owners of the chamber of Commerce in the western regions to lend money to the Mojia village and let the Mojia Village pass this pass." Chai Lingwu said with a righteous expression.


    "Cotton seed and glass secret skills!" Merton looked at Chai Lingwu with a smile and said, "brother Chai knows that the value of these two technologies is far more than 70000, and brother Chai is just borrowing money!"


    Chai Lingwu was immediately embarrassed and said, "my little brother is also forced to be helpless. Otherwise, how can I explain to other owners!"


    "Thanks for your kindness, brother Chai! These two secret skills are the only cards in Mojia village. If you lose these two secret skills, there will be no chance for Mojia village to turn over. Please forgive me for not agreeing."


    Chai Lingwu''s face stiffened. Unexpectedly, Merton was still unwilling to bow his head.


    "In that case, I won''t bother you! If brother Mo goes back on his word, my conditions will always be valid." Chai Lingwu said with an embarrassed face.


    Merton raised his eyelids and said, "no!"


    When the carriage came out of the Mo mansion, Chai Lingwu looked at the calm Mo mansion and said in a hate voice, "it''s true that you don''t cry when you don''t see the coffin."


    Chai Lingwu''s heart itched at the thought of hot cotton textile products and glass products, especially glass products. If the chamber of Commerce in the western regions can control the secret skills of glass, it would be like having a cornucopia.


    "Send a letter to Lu Shuang and tell them that there are more moves in Mojia village!" Chai Lingwu suddenly clenched his teeth and said that Merton was so calm that he obviously had a later move. In that case, he might as well add a fire secretly. When the Mojia village is at the end of its resources, he will naturally bow to them. At that time, maybe it will not be the price.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Back move! Of course there are back moves in Mojia village!" Lu Shuang sneered when he heard the news from Chai Lingwu.


    "Could it be that the Mohists still have money in secret!" Zheng Chang said in surprise.


    Lu Shuang shook his head and said, "no, Mojia village really has no money. However, in Luoyang City, Mojia Zi still has a huge loan that has not been recovered. This is the greatest confidence of Mojia Zi."


    "You mean the goods personally escorted by the one armed old man before the heavy snow!" Zheng Chang suddenly realized.


    Lu Shuang nodded and said, "according to the news, in addition to the amazing luminous cup, there are also the most valuable goods in Mojia village, diamonds!"


    "Diamond!" Zheng opened his heart and said. Thinking of the amazing price of diamonds, I was flustered.


    "In addition to these, there is a huge loan from Luoyang. Now it is snowing all night and transported back to Chang''an city. I''m afraid it will arrive tomorrow." Lu Shuang said.


    "Ah!" Zheng Chang was surprised. If Mojia village gets this huge sum of money again, I''m afraid all their previous efforts will be wasted.


    "Hahaha, you''re worried." Lu Shuang suddenly laughed when he saw Zheng Chang''s anxious look.


    Zheng Chang said angrily, "you are still in the mood to laugh at this time."


    "Don''t worry, the money in Luoyang can''t reach Chang''an city." Lu Shuang looked out of the window and smiled coldly.

 Chapter 666

    On the brick road from Chang''an city to Luoyang, a long team kept moving forward despite the severe cold. It was not suitable to travel at night. However, the heavy snow had not melted yet. Under the reflection of the moonlight, the sky and the earth were white and the roads on both sides were clearly visible.


    "Pay attention to anti-skid!" one armed Uncle Wang warned loudly.


    At the moment, the snow on the brick road is very thick, and it is very difficult for people and horses to walk, not to mention pulling a heavy carriage.


    "Don''t worry, Uncle Wang. All the carriages have been replaced with anti-skid wheels, and there are Mohist children taking care of them. There will be no problem," Li Xin said confidently.


    One armed Uncle Wang nodded and said, "our trip is very important. We can''t have the slightest carelessness."


    Although the situation of Mojia village was blocked by heavy snow, it still spread to Luoyang City. People naturally know how critical the situation of Mojia village is.


    "In my opinion, you can''t go back to Chang''an city today!" suddenly a gloomy voice appeared in front.


    "Who is it?" one armed Uncle Wang suddenly shouted and stretched out his hand. A group of Mohist village guards gathered and looked at the front.


    In the snow ahead, coir raincoats shook off one by one, revealing strong figures.


    "Hundreds of people!" one armed Uncle Wang took a breath. He didn''t expect that there were so many people from the other party, and his Mohist village guard was only 50 people. Not only did the number fall behind, but he knew that he was not good at it by looking at the strong breath of the other party.


    "You heroes, we are from Mojia village. I don''t know where we offended you heroes. Mojia made amends here!" Uncle Wang stepped forward and said in a loud voice.


    The leading man said coldly, "I don''t care about Mohist village or Taoist village. We only want money today and don''t hurt people''s lives. If you are sensible, please hand over the carriage behind us, otherwise don''t blame us for being rude."


    One armed Uncle Wang Leng hummed: "since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there are no heroes in the green forest between Chang''an City and Luoyang. You really impress Wang! Even if you get this money, how much can you take away and how far can you run!"


    The leading man laughed and said, "Mojia village is searching for the wealth of the people. Today we rob the rich and help the poor. Afterwards, we spread your money to several villages. Who is still running with the money!"


    One armed Uncle Wang suddenly felt deeply in his heart. If the money in Mojia village was robbed by a crowd of people, even if the court tracked it later, how much property could be recovered. Once Mojia village lost the money, I''m afraid there will be no chance to turn over again.


    Moreover, without the drag of money, these people are afraid to disappear without trace immediately. They can''t even be traced. One armed Lao Wang didn''t expect that the other party should calculate so deeply.


    "Boss, it is said that Mojia village has a huge fortune this time. Shall we give it to those mud legs..." one of the bandits refused to give up.


    "Fool!" Leng humed the chief man, "do you want the imperial court to catch up with the money, go to jail and kill your head? Besides, the noble man has ordered, and you can''t wait for a reward afterwards."


    The bandits could not help but feel a chill in their hearts and immediately dispelled their greed for the money. They agreed to take risks and work at the foot of the Emperor just because the risk of the deal was very small and the plan was well planned.


    Hundreds of bandits immediately pressed step by step. Under huge pressure, the Mohist village guards retreated step by step, trying to delay the other party''s attack by blocking the carriage.


    "It''s no use, your fate has been doomed this time!" the head man said grimly, waved and commanded, vaguely organized, and gradually compressed the space of Mohist village guards.


    "Really?" one armed old Wang suddenly said coldly.


    The first big man suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.


    "Boom!"


    A four-wheel carriage broke into pieces, and a fierce figure with armor jumped up and directly attacked the bandits on one side.


    "Officers and soldiers!"


    In the heart of the bandits, I saw more than a dozen fully armed four-wheel carriages jump out one after another, and there were hundreds of armored soldiers, which in turn divided and surrounded the bandits.


    "Got caught!"


    The first big man suddenly felt cold. He didn''t expect that Mojia village would lay out in advance to lure them to take the bait.


    There is no doubt that with the participation of hundreds of heavily armed officers and soldiers, hundreds of bandits, except a few who escaped in disorder, were captured one after another, even the bandits headed by them.


    "Thank you for your help, young master Fang!" Uncle Wang, relieved that the situation has been controlled, arched his hands to the leading officers and soldiers.


    The leading officers and soldiers opened their thick face armor. It was Fang Jun, Fang Xuanling''s second childe. Fang Jun said with a smile: "it''s a little effort to return brother Mo''s favor."


    In order to be safe, Merton invited the snake out of the cave by the way, so he asked Fang Jun to lead Fang Xiang''s fief and guard to help secretly, which led to today''s scene.


    Just then, another team of carriages from Mojia village came in a hurry. Looking at the heavy ruts of these carriages, the leading bandits immediately hated. This must be the real escort vehicle of Mojia village.


    "Uncle Wang, what about these people?" Fang Jun turned to look at a group of bandits. His face was not good. There were large-scale bandits at the foot of the emperor. If they were spread out tomorrow, I''m afraid it would be a big sensation in Chang''an.


    "Please spare your life, young master. We are obsessed and greedy for money. Please forgive us." the head man suddenly changed his face and said that if they were really handed over to the government, there would be his head after next autumn.


    One armed Uncle Wang said without hesitation: "the young master has given orders before coming. If the bandits are caught, let their master redeem themselves. The ransom is even the hard work of the people in Fangjia village."


    "Thank you, young master Fang. Thank you, marquis Mo!"


    All the bandits were happy and worried at once. They were happy that they had escaped a disaster. They were worried that they would not escape punishment after they went back.


    "Brother Mo is kind!"


    Fang Jun also breathed a sigh of relief. Anyone knows that these people are nothing more than those in Luoyang. If he handed them over to the government, he may completely offend the Luoyang aristocratic family. Even Fang Xiang may not be able to withstand such great pressure.


    This is the best of both worlds. Thinking of this, Fang Jun can''t help thinking secretly. This time, if he doesn''t kill the Luoyang aristocratic family, he will act recklessly as Fang er.


    "Young master Fang, we''ve wasted a lot of time, so I''ll leave now!" one armed Uncle Wang said solemnly.


    "Say hello to brother Mo for me!" Fang Jun nodded.


    In an instant, the two teams of carriages in Mojia village joined one team and rushed towards Chang''an City in the moonlight.

 Chapter 667

    In a hidden manor in the north of Chang''an City, in a humble thatched house, the oil lamp kept on all night.


    "It''s all your fault. The Mojia village treated us well, but you did such a treacherous thing. Now let''s hide here and there. In such cold weather, we don''t even have anything to keep out of the cold." a middle-aged woman complained.


    What stood out in front of her was Liu''s accounting room, who had harmed Mojia village. It snowed heavily. Instead, he was arranged to hide outside Chang''an city. He was afraid and didn''t say. He was also short of food and clothing, hungry and cold.


    Liu Zhang room rubbed his red hands and said coldly, "women''s opinion, how can you know how powerful the aristocratic family is? I think Xu''s firm was vulnerable in front of it. There is no doubt that Mohist village will be defeated. How can I sink with it."


    Liu Zhangfang is an old man of Xu''s firm. At the beginning, the failure of Xu''s firm left a deep shadow in his heart. Under the instigation of intentional people, he took the risk and betrayed Mojia village.


    Liu said sadly, "shopkeeper Xu is just a businessman, and Marquis Mo is his Majesty''s red man. He is also a princess of Changle. Even if the Mojia village fails, we can follow Marquis Mo without worry. However, if things fall down, I''m afraid our family will be destroyed immediately."


    Liu Zhang Fang couldn''t help regretting for a while, but he couldn''t help being firm when he thought of the huge fortune he had hidden.


    "People die for money, birds die for food. Now, what''s the use of saying these things? When the snow melts, naturally someone will pick us up and leave. Then, when we have this money, we will find a place to hide our names. Why not be rich and noble all our life, and why be a cheap merchant." Liu Zhang room said coldly.


    "Liu Zhang room has a good plan, but it''s a pity!" at the moment, a voice came from outside the house, which suddenly woke Liu Zhang room from his dream.


    "Who is it?" Liu Zhang''s room was suddenly surprised and said with a frightened face.


    "Bang!" the closed door was suddenly knocked open, mixed with the cold wind. People wearing military green cotton coats rushed into the house and controlled the people in the house in an instant.


    "Do you still have the king''s law to break into private houses?" Liu Zhang''s room was pressed on the ground.


    The leader sneered and said, "King''s law! Liu Zhang room has committed your crime. We are here to catch you in accordance with the king''s law."


    "It''s over!"


    When Liu saw the familiar constable''s soap clothes in the cotton coat, his heart was cold. He didn''t expect that he was so hidden that he was found so quickly.


    At the moment, the whole village was like waking up. Suddenly, there was a roar of people outside, one by one gathered with torches.


    "Constable Cao, many villagers have gathered outside!" a yamen was frightened.


    Constable Cao snorted coldly, "at the foot of the emperor, do they dare to gather people to rebel?"


    Then Constable Cao took off his cotton coat, directly dressed in the constable''s soap clothes, stepped out of the snow, held a token, and said proudly, "do you want to disobey the court, Constable Cao Li of Chang''an County and the government of Chang''an County arrest fugitives?"


    Suddenly, the torches outside shook suddenly. An old man with gray hair came over and carefully checked Cao Li''s token. After a long time, he stretched out his hand and immediately extinguished the torches one by one, and the whole village fell into silence.


    "Go and take the suspect back to Chang''an city."


    With a wave of Cao Li''s hand, a group of Yamen guards escorted Liu Zhangfang''s family and some physical evidence out of the snow and went directly to Chang''an city.


    In the south of Chang''an City, the whole Mojia village is brightly lit, and no one can sleep.


    The situation in Chang''an City naturally spread all over Mojia village. Everyone knew that there was no money in Merton''s hands and Mojia village was in danger.


    "Village head, this is my money. Go and give it to the young master!" Lao Zhang took out a money can and put it in front of Li Yi. He saw that the money can was full of fresh soil. It was obvious that it had been dug out just now.


    "Lao Zhang, don''t use yours! You still have a little son to get married this year. This is his bride price." Li Yi looked puzzled.


    Lao Zhang smiled and said, "when the young master didn''t lead the Mojia village to Chang''an City, who could marry a daughter-in-law? As long as there is a Mojia village, my Lao Zhang family won''t worry about having no daughter-in-law. If the Mojia village can''t survive, I''m afraid I can''t stay even if I marry a daughter-in-law."


    When Lao Zhang finished, many villagers of Mojia village nodded one after another. The daughters of other villages scrambled to marry Mojia village because Mojia village was rich. If Mojia village failed this time, I''m afraid the poverty of that year will repeat itself.


    "All right! The money will be used in the village first, and it will be returned immediately when the Mojia village comes back." now the Mojia village is at a critical juncture, Li Yi is no longer polite. He took the money, counted it one by one and put it on record.


    After Lao Zhang''s head, the next village woman also presented a huge money pot and put it in front of Li Yi.


    "Your orphan and widowed mother are not in good condition. I''m afraid this is all your money!" Li Yi looked at the village woman in front of him and said with a bitter smile.


    The village woman laughed and said, "my old man, the granary at home is enough for half a year. Children don''t spend a penny in school. What''s the use of these money? If you can help the young master, help him!"


    Li Yi was immediately moved. With a big hand, he said, "all the granaries in the village are open. If your food is finished, go to the granary and get it."


    "That''s natural! The young master can make me hungry!" said the village woman impolitely.


    Then, one after another, the villagers took out their money. All of them left nothing. They gave everything they could, just to do more.


    When the money donated by thousands of families was recorded one by one, unknowingly, the East had turned white and the day was getting brighter.


    "Village head! Is that enough?" after they offered money, they didn''t leave, looking forward to Li Yi one by one.


    "Enough!"


    Li Yi looked at the huge statistics and took a deep breath.


    In the past two years, except that teenagers need to go to school and don''t participate in work, almost all women and children, both men and women, have participated in work and held important positions. In the past two years, they have not saved less wages, and they have been rated as all households in one village. Now they all give generously and give one by one, which adds up to a lot of wealth. "


    Suddenly, a group of Mohist villagers cheered.


    "Li Yi, thank you very much!" Li Yi got up and solemnly saluted.


    "Village head! What is this? Mojia village also has our members. How can we sit idly by?"


    "Every village in Mojia village has a household, especially a false reputation. How can we not even take out this money!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Smiling faces appeared on the faces of villagers. At the moment, with a loud crow of chickens, the first ray of sunshine in the East scattered and dispersed the night shrouded in Mojia village.


    It''s dawn at night in Mojia village!

 Chapter 668

    it''s dawn!


    When the red sun appeared in the sight of everyone, the noise in Chang''an city resumed. However, in this noise, everyone was inquiring about the news intentionally or unintentionally, because today will be the moment to determine the success or failure of Mojia village.


    Everyone knows that with the emergence of the sun, the brick road that has been frozen for many days may soon be unblocked. Once the Mojia village survives this robbery, I''m afraid that the Mojia village, where Mojia Zi is personally in charge, will no longer be afraid of any opponent.


    "Brother Lu, the Mo family is still quiet now. There should be no accident!" Zheng Chang frowned when he looked at the No. 1 scholar building not far away.


    "I admit that Mojia Zi is very powerful, but I won''t give him any chance. Today, Mojia village is doomed to fail to collect the 70000 yuan. Once Mojia village is short of money, at that time, more people will stare at Mojia village until the whole Mojia village is completely occupied." Lu Shuangleng snorted. The Mojia village has been renovated by a series of means. The luminous cup and cotton padded clothes and quilts are even more popular. If you give the Mojia village time, I''m afraid it will really turn the Mojia village over. Fortunately, they arranged in advance and luckily took the lead.


    Zheng Chang felt a little calm in his heart. After thinking about their layout, he felt a little relieved. At the thought of the huge interests of Mojia village, he was excited. He was the second son of his family and had no chance to inherit his family. The interests of Mojia village will naturally belong to him.


    More than that, Zheng Chang and Lu Shuang are staring at the fish champion building. Almost all interested people are asking about the movement of Mo mansion, but Merton has no movement, which makes people confused.


    "Could it be that the Mohists have a plan in mind! They have a backhand."


    Many people combined with Merton''s deeds in the past, and they guessed one after another.


    In Chai''s mansion, Chai Lingwu snorted coldly, "what about the next move? I don''t believe those aristocratic families in Luoyang can''t even calculate this. When the Mohist village is at the end of its tether, I don''t believe that the Mohist son won''t bow his head."


    In the hearts of the people, the Mo family has always been smooth sailing and arrogant. All kinds of secret skills are almost invincible, and they spend money like land at the fingertips. Many people are even vaguely happy when they think that the Mo family is going to be in trouble.


    However, at this time, outside the South Gate of Chang''an City, when the team of Mojia village arrived at the gate, it immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Mojia village team!"


    Almost everyone understood the situation of Mojia village. Seeing the arrival of the team in Mojia village, they couldn''t help but cast strange eyes.


    "Routine inspection!" the Nancheng gate guard waved his hand and stopped the motorcade in Mojia village.


    "Village head!"


    A Mohist boy suddenly tightened his heart and looked at Li Yi.


    "Let them check!" Li Yi waved a big hand. Today''s Mojia village is not what it used to be. It''s not like that. Even a small Nancheng gate guard can make things difficult.


    The disciples of the Mohist School slowly moved away, but they were still alert and looked at the Nancheng gate guard. The Nancheng gate guard approached and opened the carriage. Seeing the scene inside, they suddenly took a breath,.


    "Why so much money!" shouted the guard of the south gate, immediately attracting the attention of all pedestrians.


    In the sight of everyone, I saw that all the carriages were full of money! Many people showed greedy eyes in an instant.


    Seeing the greedy eyes of others, a group of Mohist children frowned and blocked in front of the carriage.


    "This is at the foot of the emperor. Does anyone dare to rob it?" Li Yiyi pointed out in a high voice. He suddenly woke up with greedy eyes and bowed his head one by one, but his eyes couldn''t help aiming at the money.


    The watchman of Nancheng gate flashed his eyes and said, "I would have heard that Mojia village has run out of money, but now village head Li suddenly pulled so much money into Beijing. If there was no proper explanation, I would have to be suspicious!"


    Li Yi said proudly, "it''s hard to explain. Mojia village does have no money, but it doesn''t mean that Mojia villagers don''t have money. These are my own money. Every village in Mojia village has a family, and thousands of families can naturally own these money. It''s not much!"


    "The money of the Mojia villagers! The Mojia villagers took out their money!..."


    "Thousands of households, no wonder there is so much money!"


    "The Mohist villagers will reward the Mohist children for their kindness!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The onlookers suddenly looked at the villagers of Mojia village with a little more admiration. Since ancient times, money has been used everywhere. However, today, the villagers of Mojia village have refreshed their understanding.


    "This time, the general doesn''t have any doubts!" Li Yi said with a smile as he looked at the guard of the Nancheng gate.


    The guard of Nancheng gate suddenly looked embarrassed and waved his big hand: "since it''s clear, I naturally have no doubts. Let him go!"


    The fate of the last Nancheng gate keeper is obvious to all. In addition, Mojia village is not what it used to be. Naturally, he doesn''t want to tear his face with Mojia village. Moreover, in full view of the public, what he can do is extremely limited. Driving inspection is almost the limit of his power. Even if someone greets him, he doesn''t want to gamble on his future immediately.


    Watching the motorcade of Mojia village enter Chang''an City, the south gate keeper bowed his head and called a guard and said, "send a message to the city and say that Mojia village has brought money."


    The guard hurried away. In fact, he didn''t have to report. The news that Mohist villagers donated money automatically spread all over Chang''an City, and the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.


    "Money from a thousand households!" many people immediately admired the behavior of Mohist villagers.


    "There is such a villager in Mojia village. Even if it fails this time, it is possible for Mojia village to make a comeback!" an old man envied. How lucky these villagers are to meet Mojia Zi. However, it is not lucky for Mojia Zi to have such a villager!


    The people who heard the speech could not help being silent. Now the MOH family has another sum of money, and there is another layer of uncertainty between the victory and defeat.


    "Tibet is rich in the people! I didn''t expect that Mojia village has this skill!" Zheng Chang suddenly sank when he heard the report from the guard. They tried their best, but they didn''t calculate the hearts of the people, let alone that the Mojia villagers were so rich, and they volunteered to give all their money.


    "So what? The Mohist villagers have only been rich for two years, and how much wealth can they accumulate? How can they fill the gap of 70000 Guan?" Lu Shuang sneered.


    Although Merton has a lot of money, it''s just to make the Mojia village live a little longer. He doesn''t think he can change anything?


    "Mojia village!"


    The most unexpected one was Merton. He didn''t expect that the villagers of the Mohist school should take the initiative to help. At this moment, he felt that everything he had done before was worth it.

 Chapter 669

    "Young master, that''s the money!" fuber asked eagerly after he was moved.


    Merton did not affectate, but nodded and said, "take the fish champion building to check out!"


    "OK!" fuber wiped his tears and immediately went down to arrange.


    As the money of Mojia village was pulled into yuzhuangyuan building, the checkout of yuzhuangyuan building was carried out again. With the passage of time, everyone''s attention gradually focused on the east gate again.


    Before the heavy snow in Mojia village, it was well known that a large number of people were sent to Luoyang to escort a batch of goods. Almost everyone realized that it was this batch of payment that really related to the success or failure of Mojia village.


    Just when everyone focused on the east gate, they didn''t expect a team to enter Chang''an City on the snow. They were Cao Li and other constables escorting Liu Zhangfang''s family.


    "The defected Liu Zhang room in Mojia village has been caught back."


    Soon, the news spread all over Chang''an City, and the eyes of the people in Chang''an city focused on the west gate. Liu Zhangfang''s defection was a big case that caused a sensation in Chang''an city at that time. Naturally, everyone knew it.


    To know the dangerous situation of Mojia village, the first reason is that Liu Zhangfang defected and hid a large amount of money in Mojia village. Now Liu Zhangfang has returned from arrest, and the situation is once again favorable to Mojia Zi.


    "What, Liu Zhang''s room was caught!" Zheng Chang jumped up when he heard the news.


    "How does Chang''an County government know where Liu''s accounting room is hiding?" Lu Shuang dared not set the channel.


    Zheng Chang smiled bitterly when he heard the speech: "no wonder the Mo family is so calm. It turned out that they had already found us."


    Lu Shuang immediately stared at shopkeeper Zhang and said, "how do you do things? It can make people catch their tail!"


    Shopkeeper Zhang immediately looked pale again and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "the young master will punish the small ones for their disadvantageous work. But don''t worry, the young master. The other small ones have been dealt with completely and will never involve us."


    "It''s the best!" Lu Shuang said ruthlessly. "What if you catch it? If you catch the Mojia village, you can''t recover the money! Without this money, Mojia Zi will still lose."


    Zheng Chang was a little relieved, but there was a dark cloud in his heart. He didn''t believe that the Mo family didn''t calculate this step.


    In the yuzhuangyuan building, when a group of captains escorted Liu Zhangfang into it, almost all the suppliers were in an uproar. They often deal with people in Mojia village. Naturally, they recognize this person. When they see Liu Zhangfang escorted in, many people panic and look evasive and lower their heads.


    "Liu accounting room, what you did!" Xu Jie got up and saw Liu accounting room. Suddenly, he said with an iron green face. Liu accounting room is an old man who has been following him. He didn''t expect that the other party would suddenly rebel.


    Liu accountant said with a tragic smile: "shopkeeper Xu, I''m sorry for you, but you can''t fight them. Mojia village is just like Xu''s firm in those years. It''s vulnerable to them. They''re too strong!"


    Referring to Xu''s firm, Xu Jie''s breath was suddenly short. After a long time, Xu Jie shook his head and said, "no, Mojia village is different. We will win!"


    "It''s impossible, you can''t beat them at all!" Liu''s accountant suddenly turned pale and shouted incredulously.


    Xu Jie shook his head regretfully, turned to Constable Cao and said, "thank Constable Cao for catching this man for Mojia village."


    "The constable is duty bound to deal with such a big case in Chang''an city. However, the constable regretted that he didn''t recover the money for Mojia village. We have to take this person back to the prison for joint trial. We will inform the Mofu as soon as we have news." Cao Li said positively.


    "Thank you! We naturally trust the imperial court!" Xu Jie bowed.


    After Cao Li escorted Liu Zhangfang away, Xu Jie turned his head to a group of suppliers and said, "Liu Zhangfang has been escorted to the case, but all the payment for goods handled by Liu Zhangfang has been reported to Chang''an County Government as a file. This is a major case involving Chang''an city. Your payment for goods will be settled after the case is closed."


    "What? Settle after the case is closed!"


    "How can this be!"


    "Why can other people''s accounts be settled, but ours can''t."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of suppliers did not expect that Mojia village had come up with this trick, and one after another clamored that their purpose of coming today was to exhaust the money of Mojia village, but they did not expect that Mojia village had come up with this crooked idea.


    "If you don''t agree, you can go to Chang''an County Yamen to sue. Before you go, I suggest you buy a copy of the law of the Tang Dynasty, so as not to find the terms." Xu Jie didn''t care.


    "Er, ER!" all the businessmen were speechless. Although the tactics of Mojia village were not correct, they were also justified. At this time, all the people suddenly wondered why Xu Jie would settle so many bills handled by Liu Zhang room at the end.


    "And as far as I know, most of your payments are not due. It depends on what you do whether your payments are settled after maturity or after the case is closed." Xu Jie threatened.


    Many suppliers were suddenly silent. It is true that if Mojia village wants to delay, if they wait until the case is closed, I''m afraid they can''t take Mojia village.


    At present, without Xu Jie''s greeting, many suppliers immediately left.


    Looking at the supplier who was half missing, Xu Jie smiled with satisfaction and said, "let''s continue."


    The rest of the people suddenly sank in their hearts. They secretly felt bitter and vaguely understood that they might have done a great stupid thing.


    The MOH family came to hell! "


    In the restaurant not far away, Lu Shuang couldn''t stop his anger when he heard Merton''s crooked moves. He didn''t expect that the purpose of mojiazi was not to recover the stolen goods, but to seal up the accounts. In this way, the debt of Mojia village will be reduced again.


    "The Mohists can cheat!" Zheng Chang murmured to himself. All along, the Mohists have been full of talent and words, which is obviously a promise. However, today, the Mohists'' behavior has refreshed their bottom line against Mohists.


    "Hahaha, this is the MOH family. It''s as slippery as a loach. How can you handle it easily." when the news reached Chang''an City, many people in Chang''an City burst into laughter.


    In everyone''s mind, although Merton keeps his promise, he is definitely not an old-fashioned person. On the contrary, people familiar with Merton know that Merton is a catfish and very slippery.


    "You say, can the MOH family really turn over!" a Chang''an people said positively.


    "If other people can''t, but it seems that Mohist school hasn''t done anything that can''t be done!" a strong man said coldly.


    Many people nodded one after another. It can be said that Mohist school has created miracles many times in Chang''an city. In addition, Merton has made moves one after another today, so people naturally have a little more confidence in him.


    "But even if the Mohist village has all the means, it is difficult to make so much money in a short time!" some people also praise the Mohist village. After all, there is still a big gap in the Mohist village.


    Just as there was a lot of discussion in Chang''an City, outside the east gate of Chang''an City, a team of Mojia village finally came to the east gate at noon and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Luoyang''s carriage has arrived!"


    Almost instantly, the whole news spread all over Chang''an city. Once a large amount of money from Luoyang in Mojia village arrived, everyone understood that Mojia village won the unprecedented business war!

 Chapter 670

    "There must be an accident on the road! Somebody, go to the young master immediately to find out what''s going on!" Lu Shuang gnashed his teeth. He didn''t believe that he had worked hard for a long time and let the team of Mojia village arrive at Chang''an City safely.


    "No."


    A loud voice suddenly appeared downstairs, and then Fang Yiai''s fierce figure appeared in front of Zheng Lu.


    "Fang ER!" Lu Shuang frowned and looked at Fang Yiai.


    Fang Yiai said with a smile: "my young master came back from Luoyang last night, but he was attacked by hundreds of bandits. Fortunately, my young master was lucky and captured these bandits at one stroke. I didn''t expect that there were bandits at the foot of the emperor. If it was spread, it would be a sensation!"


    When Lu Shuang heard the speech, he was suddenly black. He didn''t expect that it was Fang Jun who obstructed it. Most of the bandits he sent to rob the team of Mojia village were family members. If the imperial court investigated it thoroughly, it must be hidden. However, if it happened, I''m afraid even the aristocratic families in Luoyang couldn''t hold him back and would surely hand him over. At that time, Lu Shuang was lucky to escape his life, I''m afraid I''m doomed to ruin my life.


    Lu Shuang was not only frightened, but Zheng Chang''s legs softened. Although Lu Shuang led the matter, he was also involved. At that time, I''m afraid even he can''t escape the relationship.


    "Brother Fang! Don''t be impulsive. If you have something to say, it makes mother Lu and my Zheng family have in laws. They are all a family. Why are they so stiff?" Zheng Chang hurriedly advised.


    Zheng gondola is not wrong. After hundreds of years of development, the marriage between major aristocratic families has long been intertwined and formed a huge network of relationships. This is the horror of aristocratic families.


    "If it hadn''t been for this reason, my last love would have spent more time here with you, and would have sent these bandits to the third division for trial." Fang Jun looked at the second humanitarian coldly.


    "Brother Fang said so, these bandits..." they immediately looked forward to seeing Fang Jun.


    Fang Yiai waved his hand and said, "I''m being held in Fangjia village, but I''m afraid I''ll be escorted to Chang''an City when the ice and snow on the brick road melt."


    Zheng Chang immediately looked happy. He was about to speak, but Lu Shuang stopped him. Lu Shuang took a deep breath: "this is Lu''s recognition. Brother Fang has any requirements. Just put it forward. The Luoyang aristocratic family will certainly remember this kindness!"


    Fang Jun has come to the door. Naturally, he doesn''t have to hide anymore.


    "Brother Lu Shuang is still quick. The money of a motorcade pulled back from Chang''an city was robbed by these gangsters. Not to mention, he scattered the money all over the villages along the way and couldn''t catch it back. Fang suffered a heavy loss. Who is to blame for the loss!" Fang Yiai said angrily.


    "The money of a convoy!" Zheng Chang was in a hurry, pointed to the long convoy outside Mojia village and retorted, "hasn''t this money reached Chang''an City?"


    Fang Yiai immediately stared and said, "are you blind? This is the money transported by the team of Mojia village. I mean the money lost by the team of Fangjia village."


    "Ah!" Zheng Chang understood the meaning of Fang Yiai. It was naked blackmail.


    "Don''t worry, brother Fang! The loss of the house will naturally be made up for you later."


    Lu Shuang was helpless and said that now he is a knife and I am a fish. He is unable to struggle with the extortion of Fang Yiai! And I''m afraid this money is the ransom of these people.


    Fang Yiai nodded with satisfaction, looked coldly at Lu Shuang and said, "although brother Mo disdains to ask for your stinky money, as brother Mo''s friend, I have to say for him that the money that Liu Zhang Fang is greedy for ink must be returned to Mojia village."


    "No problem!" Lu Shuang bit his teeth and nodded.


    Fang Jun nodded with satisfaction, turned and left, leaving a dead silence.


    After a long time, Zheng Chang suddenly exclaimed, "by the way, Fang Er didn''t say how much money he wanted, how to compensate!"


    Lu Shuang looked at the team in front of the fish champion building with a gloomy face and said, "naturally, how much money does this team have? I''m afraid I''ll give room two how much money!"


    "What?" Zheng Chang was stunned. Everyone knew that Mojia village had brought back huge wealth from Chang''an City this time. In this way, the money they wanted to give to Fang ER was not a small amount.


    Lu Shuang nodded bitterly. The facts proved that not only did he make money, but also he couldn''t even play. This time, he was completely defeated in the hands of mojiazi.


    Outside the yuzhuangyuan building,


    The remaining suppliers looked bitterly at the long team in front of the door. Everyone knew that Mojia village had won completely this time.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, this is a misunderstanding,..."


    "We are also misled and provoked!..."


    "Can''t we not check out?"


    Suppliers looked at Xu Jie pleadingly.


    Unfortunately, Xu Jie was not moved at all and said, "you worry too much. Mohist village believes in Mohist faith. How can it be a generation who owes you money and doesn''t pay it back."


    The remaining suppliers immediately regretted that Mojia village believed in the mutual benefits of Mojia, and all merchants who came and went with Mojia village benefited greatly. Now they will not only lose the largest customer of Mojia village, but also suffer heavy losses. In the future, their reputation will be damaged, and I''m afraid it will be more difficult to do business in the future.


    With enough money, the settlement business of yuzhuangyuan building suddenly accelerated. In less than half an hour, all accounts of Mojia village were cleared except those involving Liu''s account room.


    And seeing that there was enough money left, everyone believed that even if Liu''s accounts were not sealed, Mojia village would be enough to pay all the accounts.


    Watching the famous businessmen in Chang''an city leave the yuzhuangyuan building dejectedly, the spies who had been waiting in Chang''an city suddenly understood that it was the mojiazi who finally won.


    Soon, the news of the victory of Mojia village spread all over Chang''an City for the first time, and the children of Mojia cheered. At the same time, all the gains of Mojia village were reduced by 20% in Chang''an city to celebrate, and the business circles of Chang''an city caused an uproar.


    "Mozi is worthy of Mozi, and many aristocratic families can''t help him!" a merchant couldn''t help exclaiming.


    You should know how powerful the aristocratic family is in this era. Even the imperial power has to worry about three points.


    "What''s the matter? Don''t the Mohists think they were facing the Taiyuan Wang family?" many people immediately said as expected. However, they didn''t know that the Mohist village was facing not one aristocratic family, but a combination of aristocratic families. What a thrilling victory for Merton this time.


    "In my opinion, the greatest contributor to the success of Mohist village is Mohist ink technology. Only with ink technology in hand can Mohist village have the strength to fight." someone was acutely aware of the strategy of Mohist village.


    People nodded one after another, and many people were even more worried. They couldn''t help paying more attention to ink technology.

 Chapter 671

    "Mojia village won!"


    "Mojia village has won!"


    "The Mohists really won!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the people who heard the news sighed one by one. They felt both unexpected and reasonable. After all, there was a demon like mojiazi, and they had never been disappointed.


    In the Imperial College, when Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, heard the news, he suddenly looked blue and lowered his head angrily. However, many young students worship Merton as an idol. After all, he is not afraid of power and defeats the strong with the weak. It is admirable at any time, not to mention the legend of Merton staying in the Imperial College.


    Kong Yingda shook his hand and sighed helplessly, revealing an expression that was as expected. How could the Mohist school, which had been silent for thousands of years and suddenly rose, be defeated so easily.


    After this battle, the influence of Mohism will certainly rise to a higher level, and the challenge faced by Confucianism must be more severe.


    "Someone!" Kong Yingda reached out and called a servant in.


    "What''s the order for the sacrifice?"


    "Send a letter to Qufu and ask the Confucius house to send a group of people!" Kong Yingda ordered.


    "Yes!" the servant immediately took the order and left.


    Watching the servants leave, Kong Yingda stood for a long time and murmured, "Mohism has become a climate. Confucianism can no longer sit idly by."


    Imperial Palace, Chu Xiu palace.


    A large-scale draft is going on. There is no doubt that Li Shimin will show his best in the world one by one. Liu Bo''s eyes are crossed, just for Li Shimin to stay for a moment.


    "Your Majesty, these are the most outstanding ladies in the aristocratic family. They are not only beautiful, but also intelligent inside and outside. Empress Chang sun stood beside Li Shimin and pointed to a group of beautiful women with a gentle face.


    Li Shimin was moved and said, "Guanyin maid has a heart."


    Empress Chang sun bowed her head and said meekly, "this is what concubines should do as queens. Although these beautiful women are excellent, in the view of concubines, it is best to count Zheng."


    "Zheng, Zheng in Xingyang?" Li Shimin asked with a twinkle in his eyes when he saw the amazing Zheng in front of a group of beautiful women.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "yes, his father is Zheng Renji, a general Minister of the previous dynasty. He not only has an excellent tutor, but also is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Needlework embroidery is not vulgar. He is a rare beauty."


    Li Shimin nodded. He didn''t know about the Zheng family. He had just received a letter before he came. Zheng Lu''s joint encirclement and suppression of Mojia village had been greatly defeated, and the Zheng family was the main force in this encirclement and suppression of Mojia village.


    Li Shimin pondered and said, "I naturally believe in the Queen''s vision. Someone has issued an edict to seal Zheng as Chong Hua and listed him as the first of these beautiful women."


    "Thank you for your grace!" Li Shimin discussed with the empress changsun, but he did not avoid women. Zheng was overjoyed at speech and immediately knelt down to thank her.


    All the beauties immediately showed envy and jealousy. It can be said that it is every beauties'' dream to know which woman is not familiar with Li Shimin''s deeds and can be favored by Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin successively sealed up a group of beautiful women. Then he went out of the Chu Xiu palace and stretched out his hand. Li Junxian, the commander of the hundred horses who had been waiting for him, immediately came forward.


    "Give me the story of Merton''s victory." Li Shimin said solemnly.


    "Yes!" Li Junxian answered and immediately arrived at Merton''s tricks one by one. Even the Luoyang aristocratic family was ready to intercept the money of the Mojia village.


    "If you dare to use force at the foot of the emperor, these aristocratic families really want money but not life!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    Li Junxian nodded: "The Mojia village has been prepared for this long time. It built a plank road to hide its position. It invited Fang Yiai to lead the soldiers of Fangjia village to set up an ambush. Not only did it not lose, but it also trapped the Luoyang aristocratic family. It is said that young master Fang Er insisted that his money was robbed and asked the Lu Zheng family for a large amount of money as ransom. However, how the Mojia family accurately captured the defected accounting room is a mystery Fog. "


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "what really surprised me is that the Mohist villagers are so united and volunteer money to tide over the difficulties in the Mohist village."


    Mohism has always been a well-organized organization. After thousands of years of decline, many rules have changed. However, Li Shimin can''t help paying attention to the unity of Mohist village today.


    "What to do next, please your Majesty''s order." Li Junxian arched his hand.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "then you don''t have to do anything. Just keep staring!"


    "Ah!" Li Junxian couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin in surprise. In his opinion, the two families fought so fiercely and used force between Luoyang and Chang''an. This was a taboo, but he didn''t expect Li Shimin to let go lightly.


    "Merton''s catfish really didn''t disappoint me. It tossed into the aristocratic family."


    Li Shimin showed a strange smile. This time, the Mohist village directly competed with the aristocratic family, which made him look forward to it. If the Mohist village really can''t hold up, Li Shimin will take it personally and take the Mohist village back into his pocket and become a vassal of the royal family.


    Since the Jedi of the Mojia village fought back, it''s better to release the catfish of the Mojia village, which must be able to muddy the jar of muddy water of the aristocratic family. After all, the Mojia Zi has never let him down.


    The reason why the aristocratic family is strong is that the aristocratic family has mastered a lot of wealth, while the Mojia village has become a new source of wealth. How can the struggle between the two easily stop? As an emperor, he needs to let the two fight all the time, not mediation.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "This time I let the Mohist family escape. Next time, I won''t have such a good chance!" Chai Lingwu said regretfully in Chai''s house.


    This time, due to the rapid expansion of Mojia village and the sudden leakage of ink technology, they suddenly have such a big loophole, which gives them an opportunity.


    But then again, the wealth contained in the secret skills of the Mojia village is too tempting. Luoyang aristocratic families encircle and suppress the Mojia village, which is also the acquiescence of many aristocratic families. After all, if the Mojia village succumbs, they can all have a share.


    "But that''s good. Those people of Luoyang aristocratic family can''t steal chicken, eat rice, or benefit." the Chai family housekeeper smiled. There are both cooperation and competition among aristocratic families, especially the Shandong aristocracy and Guanlong aristocracy. If the Mohist village fails this time, the Shandong aristocratic family will benefit the most.


    Chai Lingwu nodded and said, "it''s time for us to change our attitude towards Mojia village. After all, the goods produced in Mojia village are all in demand on the silk road."


    In particular, the crystal jieqianchou and luminous cup produced by Mojia village, as well as polished diamonds, are rare boutiques. Once they are transported to the western countries, they must be worth twice.


    The silk road itself has a small transportation volume, so it naturally needs to transport the best goods, and I''m afraid most of the best goods in the world come from Mojia village, which is also the reason why many aristocratic families can''t wait to encircle and suppress Mojia village.


    The Chaifu housekeeper nodded and said, "I''ll place an order with Mojia village. Now Zheng and Lu have failed, so I can''t blame us."


    "I''m afraid it''s hard for brother Zheng and brother Lu now!" Chai Lingwu laughed, his eyes full of luck and disaster. Before that, they had the powerful resources of Luoyang aristocratic family, and Chai Lingwu naturally paid attention to them.


    However, the encirclement and suppression of the Mojia village failed, and the Luoyang aristocratic family suffered heavy losses. They must lose their power. The children of the aristocratic family are the most realistic. The children of the aristocratic family who have lost their power are not even as good as the poor family. How can Chai Lingwu look at them.

 Chapter 672

    Zheng Chang and Lu Shuang had a hard time. It was like a year! This time, the whole line of Luoyang aristocratic family collapsed. They are both to blame. The great situation was violated by the Mohist. I don''t know whether the Mohist is too strong or they are too good.


    The Zheng family is not in the hospital.


    Zheng Chang and Lu Shuang were face to face, silent.


    "Mozi is really evil!" Zheng opened his eyes and lay on the chair. The whole Chang''an City knew about the deeds of Mozi, but he didn''t expect that when they met Mozi, they knew how difficult it was.


    "Have you sent the messenger to Luoyang?" Lu Shuang said in the same mournful way.


    Zheng Kuang nodded and said, "I''ve already been sent out. If you hurry up, you should be able to reach Luoyang tomorrow."


    At present, from Chang''an city to Luoyang, only Mojia village can develop day and night. Obviously, they can''t use the channels of Mojia village, which wastes a lot of time. In addition, there are a lot of snow clearing on the road, so it''s very difficult to walk back and forth, and it costs more.


    This is also a brick road. If it is a dirt road, if the snow melts and the ground is muddy, I''m afraid I can''t walk at all! If you want to send a letter to Luoyang City, it can''t be delivered in three or five days.


    "Hey!"


    Lu Shuang sighed helplessly. The whole Luoyang was looking forward to their information. If he knew the news of failure, he would be furious.


    "It''s Fang er''s fault. How can we fail so badly!" Zheng Chang thought of Fang''s last love and said with gnashing teeth. Fang er not only helped Mojia village, but also blackmailed them for a large amount of ransom.


    Lu Shuang said reluctantly, "the Mo family has already prepared. Even without the help of room 2, I''m afraid we will return in vain unless we dare to make a big noise."


    I''m afraid some people can''t stop what Lu Shuang said. At that time, I''m afraid things will really make a big noise.


    Zheng Geng shuddered at the thought of this possibility. This is the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty. If there is a big noise, even the Luoyang aristocratic family may not be able to protect them.


    "By the way, what about the money swallowed by Liu''s account room?" Zheng Chang suddenly remembered and asked.


    "Give it back to Mojia village! At the same time, send a letter to Liu''s accounting room to make him speak more strictly. Otherwise, no one can save his family!" Lu Shuang said with gnashing teeth. Now the situation is reversed. They are seized by Mojia Zi and can only be manipulated by him.


    "Brother Lu, don''t worry. I''ll take care of this matter." Zheng Kuang nodded. This is a common means of the aristocratic family. Once there is an accident, only people can hold the VAT. Liu Zhang''s room is no longer in the Mohist village. If he dares to climb and bite again, his family will have no way to survive.


    They were relieved when they arranged their retreat, but they were worried at the thought of the coming punishment in the family.


    Suddenly, a noise outside spread into the living room. Zheng gondola was in a bad mood. When he heard the speech, he flew into a rage and said, "who is making a noise? Get out of here!"


    "Congratulations, young master! Congratulations!" Zheng Chang, the housekeeper of Zheng''s house, regardless of his anger, rushed in excitedly and shouted.


    Zheng Chang suddenly felt a fog and said, "great joy, where does it come from?"


    Zheng''s housekeeper said excitedly, "there''s news from the palace that the young lady''s draft has been admitted to the palace and has been personally granted as Chong Hua by your majesty! The imperial edict has been issued, so we''ll wait for the envoy to be sent to Xingyang."


    Zheng Chang did not dare to establish a channel. At the end of his nine concubines, Zheng Chang ranked 13th in the harem. His official position was lower than that of the prime minister, but higher than that of the six Shangshu. From then on, the Zheng family will also be relatives,


    Zheng Chang suddenly felt happy from heaven. The shadow that had originally enveloped him was suddenly cleared away. He was Zheng Chonghua''s brother. Who dared to punish him? Even the status of the Zheng family will rise in Luoyang.


    Zheng is excited. Yu Guang sweeps aside Lu Shuang Tieqing''s face and suddenly looks embarrassed. He has kept the news of Zheng''s draft from Lu Shuang and said bitterly: "brother Lu is really sorry. My little sister is very willful. Even my little brother can''t persuade her."


    Lu Shuang said with an expression on his face, "brother Zheng doesn''t have to say much. My engagement with Zheng has long been cancelled and has nothing to do with her. It''s a great good thing that she can be called Chong Hua. My little brother should be happy for him."


    Zheng opened his hands with a ashamed face and said, "thank you for Lu Shuang''s generosity."


    "Since the Zheng family has a big event, I won''t bother you! Goodbye!" Lu Shuang tried to control himself and staggered up.


    Zheng opened his mouth and couldn''t say anything to keep him. He just arranged for the Lu family''s humanitarian: "take good care of brother Lu. If brother Lu has any accident, take you as a question!"


    "Yes!"


    The servants of the Lu family took orders and hurriedly chased Lu Shuang who was about to go out of the gate. Anyone could see that Lu Shuang was in a wrong state.


    Lu Shuang walked in the street and saw the dazzling sun he hadn''t seen for a long time. The snow water dripping down both sides of the street. Even if he was in the downtown, he felt endless desolation. Even if someone inadvertently looked at him, he felt as if he was laughing at him again.


    "I''m the biggest fool in the world!"


    He not only lost to the Mo family, but also lost his favorite woman. When he first saw Zheng, he recognized her. Relying on the family relationship, he was engaged to Zheng, who was less than 14, but was broken by Mo family with the Hu family woman case.


    When he learned that Zheng liked mojiazi, he didn''t hesitate to be the vanguard of encircling and suppressing mojiazi village, just to prove that he was stronger than mojiazi. But now when he learned that Zheng entered the palace and was granted the title of Chong Hua, he found his inner weakness. When he faced the imperial power, he didn''t even have the courage to resist.


    "No wonder you don''t like me. It seems that your choice is right!" Lu Shuang said bitterly.


    "Young master, I''d better go back!" the servants of the Lu family worried aside.


    "Go back? What? I want to drink!" Lu Shuang laughed at himself, plunged into a restaurant, directly patted a piece of silver on the table and shouted, "waiter, give me the best wine!"


    "Well, sir!" the waiter skillfully put away the silver and said proudly, "Sir, it''s right to come to our shop. There are crystals newly listed in Mojia village in our shop to solve thousands of worries. This is a first-class good wine. I got it with a relationship."


    As soon as the servants of the Lu family heard that they had solved thousands of worries, they immediately shouted, "don''t this, want the good wine in Sichuan!"


    Naturally, he knew that his young master hated the Mojia Zi the most. Anything that touched the Mojia Zi could drive the young master crazy.


    But unexpectedly, Lu Shuang waved his hand and stopped him. "No! I want to solve thousands of worries. Once I get drunk, I will drink the so-called best wine in the world today!"


    Soon, a bottle of crystal to solve thousands of worries and exquisite dishes were brought up.


    Lu Shuang opened the exquisite solution to thousands of worries, took out two luminous cups, filled them up and drank them in one gulp. Even the most mellow and best wine could not wash away the bitterness in his heart.


    I''m afraid it''s the bitterest wine in the world when I hear that my woman is married outside and drinking her opponent''s wine!

 Chapter 673

    Although the Mohist family''s reputation for relieving Qianchou was slightly damaged by the rumor of using poisonous food, with the news that Tibetan sorghum was used as raw material, the listing of exquisite crystal relieving Qianchou took advantage of the Mohist family''s victory over the Luoyang aristocratic family and became popular in Chang''an city again.


    Moreover, jieqianchou was the first high alcohol in the Tang Dynasty. If you can''t drink enough, you may get drunk soon. Before long, Lu Shuang was drunk in the restaurant.


    However, while Lu Shuang was drunk, the emperor''s new Chong Hua Zheng, who had an engagement with Lu Shuang, spread like wildfire in Chang''an City and was soon spread.


    "Villain! Do you know how much trouble you have caused!"


    In the house. Fang Xuanling stared at Fang Yiai angrily, holding a ruler in her hand, and was about to greet Fang Yiai.


    "Dad, I''m talking about righteousness! Lu Shuang and Zheng Chang are so hateful that they are robbing openly. I can''t see it anymore." Fang Yiai immediately ran away with his head in his arms and explained.


    "You still have reason to use force at the foot of the emperor." Fang Xuanling was angry and raised the family law together.


    "Well, you''ll kill Erlang if you fight again." Lu rushed over and protected the house''s love.


    "Mother!" Fang Yiai quickly hid beside Lu.


    Seeing Lu''s anger, Fang Xuanling said angrily, "you are used to being a good son! This boy not only joined the western regions chamber of commerce without permission, but also detained the people in Luoyang and blackmailed them for a large ransom!"


    "So what?" Lu Shi was not moved.


    Fang Xuanling was furious and said, "are you still used to him?"


    Lu did not care and said, "the chamber of Commerce in the western regions is not fighting for profits with the people. Erlang can''t inherit your title. He will be carefree in the future. Why not!"


    "What about the ransom?" Fang Xuanling said angrily.


    "Since the Luoyang aristocratic family has done something wrong, it must have the consciousness of paying a price. In my opinion, it''s cheap for them to take some money." Lu said fiercely.


    Although the Lu family has an alliance with the Luoyang aristocratic family, the Lu family has no feelings for these distant relatives and will naturally safeguard their son''s interests.


    "Yes! My father won''t just let the Luoyang aristocratic family go!"


    Fang Yiai immediately exclaimed that it was impossible for him to spit out the fat in his mouth.


    Fang Xuanling reluctantly put down the yardstick and said, "since it has been done, it''s not good to talk back. When the ransom in Luoyang arrives, donate it to the Red Cross immediately!"


    "All donated?" Lu said painfully. It''s a lot of money!


    "Women''s opinion, don''t you think your majesty doesn''t know such a big news? Donating to the Red Cross is also a disaster relief for the house." Fang Xuanling glared at Fang Yiai with hatred.


    Others don''t know Li Shimin. As prime minister, Fang Xuanling naturally knows how strong Li Shimin has control over the whole Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin naturally sends people to watch such a big business war between Luoyang aristocratic family and Mojia village. How can he hide what happened on the brick road from Li Shimin.


    "Ah!" Fang Yiai was stunned and said, "I will donate it to the Red Cross society according to my father."


    "Remember, you must donate anonymously, otherwise if it is spread, the house will donate so much money, I''m afraid I can''t wash it when I jump into the Yellow River." Fang Xuanling ordered uneasily.


    "Don''t worry, father. The child knows what to do." Fang Yiai nodded.


    "Take good care of your good son. I have to go to the palace!" Fang Xuanling complained to Lu.


    "Entering the palace, why do you want to enter the palace at this time? Isn''t there no official business today?" Lu was dissatisfied. It was not easy for Fang Xuanling to rest for a long time and even go to court.


    Fang Xuanling sighed: "it has been spread all over the palace. Your Majesty''s newly sealed Chong Hua Zheng had an engagement with the Lu family. Today, it must be to discuss this matter."


    Lu Shi was surprised and said, "there is still this matter?"


    Immediately, Lu took care of Fang Xuanling, put on his clothes, boarded the carriage and went directly to the palace.


    Tai Chi hall.


    "Had an engagement?" Li Shimin frowned when he heard the news that Zheng and Lu Shuang had an engagement.


    Wei Zheng stepped out of the line and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, there is indeed an engagement. Most of the Zheng and Lu families have married. Lu Shuang and Zheng have made a marriage. This is well known and not a secret."


    "There''s such a thing!" Li Shimin exclaimed. This was the first time he heard that the woman he liked had been engaged to someone else. It''s strange that Li Shimin was in a good mood.


    Linghu dehu, the Minister of rites, said angrily when he heard the speech: "Zheng had an engagement, but he deceived the king and flattered the royal family! Please order a thorough investigation of the crimes of the Zheng family."


    Linghu Dexian was originally a member of Guanlong aristocratic family. He was wrong with Luoyang aristocratic family. Naturally, he was happy to fall into a well. What''s more, Linghu Dexian was an official of the Ministry of rites. It was within his scope of responsibility to have such things happen.


    Many officials of Luoyang aristocratic family trembled when they heard the speech. Bullying the king is not a very serious crime. If the Zheng family is allowed to sit down, I''m afraid it will not be good.


    An official of Luoyang aristocratic family hurriedly stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, it is still unknown whether Zheng and Lu Shuang have an engagement. Moreover, your majesty has ordered that any engagement less than 14 will be invalidated. As long as they have not made a new engagement, it will not be regarded as cheating the king."


    "Oh! I did issue this edict!" Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little.


    Wei Zheng snorted coldly, "even so, it''s not polite. Now the engagement between Zheng and Lu has spread all over Chang''an and Luoyang. I''m afraid it will damage your Majesty''s reputation."


    Wei Zheng''s worry is not unreasonable. Those who know the truth naturally know that their engagement has been invalidated. However, the people who do not know the truth must think that Li Shimin is stealing love with a knife.


    As soon as Wei Zheng made a sound, many civil servants immediately agreed. It would be extremely inappropriate if such scandals came out of the harem.


    When the courtiers fell to one side, to everyone''s surprise, Fang Xuanling suddenly listed and said: "Zheng Xu married Lu, there is no manifestation, not to mention the great ceremony between his majesty and Zheng, which can not be stopped."


    The ministers were stunned. They didn''t expect that Fang Xuanling would take the initiative to defend the Zheng family.


    But I don''t know Fang Xuanling''s bitterness. The reason why he got involved in this kind of thing is not to wipe his son''s ass and help the Zheng family once, so as to resolve the gratitude and resentment with the Luoyang aristocratic family.


    And Fang Xuanling''s words just said that in Li Shimin''s heart, if there was no previous imperial edict to abolish the marriage contract under the age of 14, Li Shimin would give up for his reputation as magnanimous as in history.


    But now he is not rude, and the imperial edict of Zheng has been issued. If he is allowed to do it himself, he will not want to do it in his heart.


    "Your Majesty, before the minister came, Lu Shuang asked Wei minister to make a statement. Zheng and Lu were originally in marriage, but they had close financial contacts and had no marriage agreement. In addition, the two families may have close relatives, so it is naturally impossible to get engaged." an official of Luoyang aristocratic family said that he came with the advice of the Zheng family. He must spare no effort to promote Zheng Chonghua, As for Lu Shuang''s watch, it is also true. Even if he drowns his worries with wine, he can only write it obediently under the pressure of Luoyang aristocratic family, not to mention that their engagement has been dissolved.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "in that case, we''ll stop discussing this matter at this time and discuss it again after the matter is found out."


    Wei Zheng immediately frowned. If he had followed Li Shimin''s character in the past, he would not allow such things that might damage his reputation. However, today''s Li Shimin was beyond his expectation and seemed to be different.


    "It''s just that you Aiqing are here, and Qingque''s local chronicles also has unexpected results. How about your love to open my eyes with me?" Li Shimin laughed and changed the topic.


    "Dare not obey orders!" the ministers immediately bowed.

 Chapter 674

    The compilation of Kuo Di Zhi by Li Tai, king of Wei, is not a secret among the courtiers. Moreover, Li Tai, king of Wei, has always been favored. All the courtiers know it clearly. When they hear Li Shimin''s invitation, all the courtiers naturally go.


    "My ministers have met my father and ministers."


    In front of the Wei palace, Li Tai respectfully saluted Li Shimin and his ministers,


    The ministers looked up and unexpectedly saw Merton, who was popular in Chang''an city not long ago. Many ministers of Luoyang aristocratic family suddenly turned black. They didn''t have a good face for Merton.


    "I''ve seen the emperor and his ministers." Merton touched his nose and reluctantly came forward to salute Li Shimin and his ministers.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton and snorted coldly. Then he turned to look at Li Tai and said happily, "excuse me! Green bird, you said that there was a major discovery in the local chronicles. Today I will take all civil and military officials as a witness."


    "Surely I won''t let my father down!" Li Tai said respectfully.


    Li Shimin nodded and followed Li Tai to the palace of the king of Wei. All the ministers followed one after another, and Merton consciously followed the ministers.


    "Mo boy, what medicine does King Wei sell in the gourd!" unconsciously, Cheng Yaojin retreated to Merton and whispered.


    Merton vaguely pointed to his feet. Cheng Yaojin suddenly had a black line. He naturally instructed Li Tai to write the local chronicles, but what does it mean to point to the ground.


    Merton had no choice but to bow down and whisper in Cheng Yaojin''s ear, which immediately made Cheng Yaojin look surprised.


    "Seriously!" Cheng Yaojin exclaimed.


    Merton nodded affirmatively.


    Cheng Yaojin took a cold breath and couldn''t help staring at Li Tai in front. He couldn''t help muttering, "if so, I''m afraid things will be big today."


    Li Tai, who was at the forefront, led the crowd to a large stone full of shells and said in a high voice, "my son''s minister compiled a local chronicle, which originally recorded the great rivers and mountains and prosperous times of the Tang Dynasty. However, during the western expedition, an accidental discovery of ink sacrificial wine attracted the attention of my son''s minister."


    "This is the stone?" Li Shimin looked at the shell on the stone suspiciously.


    Li Tai nodded and said, "yes, this is the stone of the shell beam. I believe many generals present have seen it."


    Cheng Yaojin immediately said in a loud voice, "yes, I saw it with my own eyes when Merton dug a stone. There are many miles of such stones."


    Many generals nodded one after another. They were all present at the beginning, but they just looked at it and didn''t take it to heart. I didn''t expect to be so solemnly introduced by the king of Wei today. I couldn''t help being cautious.


    "There are seashells in the desert!" many civil servants couldn''t help looking at the strange stone in front of them curiously, and so many generals testified. They naturally believed its authenticity and were surprised.


    "As we all know, there are only a large number of shells in the water, even by the lake, so many years ago, Qinghai must be a vast ocean." Li Tai directly threw out the conclusion of the discussion with Merton on that day.


    The ministers were in an uproar. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help but open his eyes. He heard this conclusion for the first time.


    People want to refute, but the real shell in the stone in front of them is an indisputable fact, because shells can only live in water.


    "Therefore, my ministers think that there is a force that keeps the land of Qinghai rising, even the Tubo plateau," Li Tai affirmed.


    The ministers were silent. Although they could not accept it in their hearts, they had to admit that what Li Tai said was somewhat reasonable.


    Li Tai continued: "at the same time, he carefully collected all the earthquake sites in the history books, but he found an unexpected discovery."


    With a wave of his hand, Li Tai saw a map of the Tang Dynasty appear in front of all the officials. One historical recorded earthquake site formed an earthquake belt, half around the land of Qinghai and the Tibetan Plateau.


    "Earthquake!"


    The ministers were surprised and looked at Li Tai in disbelief.


    Wei Zheng''s face was gloomy and said, "Your Highness King Wei means that the Earth Dragon turned over and caused the vicissitudes of life."


    Li Tai shook his head and said, "what I mean is that it was the vicissitudes of life that made the Earth Dragon turn over. It was a force that made the land of Qinghai rise continuously. The underground rocks can''t withstand such force fracture, which formed the earthquake.


    Li Tai stretched out his hand and saw two eunuchs carrying a huge tofu and putting it in front of the ministers. They randomly inserted several long bamboo sticks into the tofu and penetrated them one by one. They worked hard at the same time. They were afraid of a snap. The bamboo stick broke from it. The huge force at the fracture directly pushed the tofu out of a big hole.


    "This is the principle of earthquake model," Li Tai said proudly.


    Merton, the last of the officials, couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin with surprised eyes. He once showed this principle in front of Li Shimin, but now it appears in Li Tai''s hands. If he didn''t have Li Shimin''s advice, he wouldn''t believe killing him.


    Many literary ministers were immediately surprised. What Li Tai showed them was just a small experiment, but it was no less than a thunderbolt for them. The earthquake is the last barrier of heaven man induction. Everything Li Tai showed today completely makes heaven man induction a joke. Why mention restricting imperial power.


    In other words, since then, the power of imperial power has expanded to the extreme. What Confucianism did before is a joke. How can such civil servants accept this situation.


    Many civil servants immediately stared angrily at Merton, who was finally shrinking in the corner. If he hadn''t continuously exposed various phenomena induced by heaven and man, how could Confucianism have such a passive situation.


    "It''s a load of nonsense. A few small bamboo sticks and a piece of tofu want to explain the Earth Dragon''s turn over. It''s a joke!" unexpectedly, Li Shimin suddenly spoke and scolded Li Tai.


    Li Tai quickly apologized and said, "this is a guess of his ministers. Please forgive me for being bold."


    "It doesn''t matter, it doesn''t matter. Learning is a bold guess, even if it''s wrong."


    "Your Highness the king of Wei is so young and eager to learn. It''s really extraordinary."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The literary ministers suddenly became kind and friendly. They looked at Li Tai with teachable eyes, as if they were a diligent and studious nephew.


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little and taught him: "in the future, concentrate on learning, be realistic and pragmatic, eliminate the false and preserve the truth, don''t be careless in learning, and don''t get these specious things again."


    "I will obey my father''s orders!" Li Tai said respectfully.


    The Manchu courtiers helplessly watched the father and son sing in unison. Although Li Shimin personally refuted Li Tai''s argument, everyone knew that from then on, they could do nothing to limit the imperial power.


    Many people originally wanted to continue persuading Zheng Chonghua. At the moment, they silently forget all the advice in their hearts. It''s meaningless to argue about these at the moment.

 Chapter 675

    "I told my father that the earthquake was indeed my guess, but when I studied the vicissitudes of life, I found another discovery, but there was conclusive evidence." Li Tai bowed.


    "What else can I find?" Li Shimin was stunned and looked at Li Tai.


    Li Tai nodded and said, "I don''t know if my father still remembers that last year in the south of Chang''an City, when there was a severe drought in Guanzhong, and the people didn''t want to irrigate and fight drought. They were bent on praying for the dragon and rain, and my father angrily cut the mud Dragon King."


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he immediately showed a proud face. It was a matter of great complacency for him. After he angrily beheaded the mud Dragon King, he ordered the army and the people to fight the disaster as a whole and popularized the method of killing wells to get water, so that Datang had the method of fighting drought from now on.


    Li Tai continued: "the father emperor''s move is for the country and the people, and the world is beneficial. However, it has been criticized by some people who believe in the Dragon King. My son and minister have been resenting it all the time. After hard thinking, I collected information about the rain all over the world, only to correct my father''s name. Finally, the emperor has lived up to those who have a heart, and my son and minister have finally solved the secret of the rain."


    Li Shimin''s breath stagnated. He couldn''t believe looking at Li Tai and said, "so, you are the secret of the rain."


    "The secret of rain!" the Manchu courtiers couldn''t help but open their eyes and looked at Li Tai in disbelief. In their view, the wind and rain are the will of heaven, and how can human beings see through it.


    "Nonsense! The formation of rain is the wind Bo''s application of the wind and the rain master''s distribution of rain. Thunder and lightning fall from the thunder and lightning, especially human beings can spy on it." an imperial censor angrily denounced.


    Li Shimin killed the Dragon King angrily before. Naturally, he didn''t dare to say that the Dragon King paid the rain. Instead, he turned to the legendary Fengbo rain master and Lei Gong electric mother. Many officials nodded one after another. They listened to these legends since childhood. Naturally, they couldn''t accept Li Tai''s point of view for the moment.


    Even Li Shimin was pondering. Although he cut the Dragon King angrily, he was in awe of the immortal in his heart. He couldn''t help looking at Li Tai.


    Li Tai said happily: "since you think Fengbo Yushi can rain, why does my great Tang Dynasty have more precipitation in the South and less in the north, more in the East and less in the west? Isn''t the northwest loved by Fengbo Yushi?"


    "Er!"


    The ministers were stunned and speechless.


    Wei Zheng retorted: "it is the will of heaven to carry clouds and rain, especially what we mortals can guess."


    Li Tai said proudly, "like all of you, I didn''t realize it until I accidentally got the secret brewing skill of Mojia village.


    "Mojiazi!"


    "Brewing secret skill!"


    Suddenly, the ministers'' eyes suddenly stared at Merton hiding behind him.


    They had a vague guess in their hearts for a long time, and now it has finally been confirmed that all this really has the shadow of Mohism, otherwise who would be able to toss like this.


    Morton smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Highness also inadvertently discovered the secret skill of brewing wine. The main reason to solve the rain is the intelligence of his Highness the king of Wei."


    Li Tai was immediately proud. He could think of the formation of rain in the light line, which was enough to make him proud of his achievements in his life.


    "With the help of marquis Mo, the king used his secret brewing skills to reproduce the rain, and asked his father and ministers to follow him." Li Tai stretched out his hand and invited him.


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed, laughed and took the lead in getting up and saying, "then I''m going to open my eyes."


    The ministers are also excited. The secret brewing technique is no longer a secret in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, they have heard of it. Naturally, they don''t believe that a small secret brewing technique can involve astronomical wonders such as clouds and rain.


    They followed Li Tai into a side hall and found that a huge boiler was set up in the side hall. The boiler was burning with flames, and the water in the boiler had already boiled. Soon, the side hall was full of white steam.


    "Green Finch, this is what you call the mystery of rain!" Li Shimin frowned.


    "The water in the pot boils and turns into water vapor, and the rain falls from the sky! Where does the water come from?" Li Tai pointed out.


    "Do you mean the rain caused by these water mist?" Li Shimin said thoughtfully when he heard the speech.


    "Ah! How is this possible?" a group of Ministers shook their heads one after another. They had lived all their lives. Hearing this absurd statement for the first time was simply subverting the three outlooks.


    Li Tai smiled without saying a word, but walked forward first. He saw that there was a channel in front of him, and a lot of white steam was drifting from the channel.


    Li Shimin followed Li Tai into the channel. He saw that the upper part of the channel was covered with iron sheets. The white steam met the cold iron sheets and soon condensed into water droplets. With the increase of water droplets, water droplets gathered and increased, and fell on Li Shimin, like rain.


    The passage was not long, but Li Shimin walked very slowly. Even if there was water dripping on him, he seemed to be unaware of it.


    Until he walked out of the channel, Li Shimin saw the bright sunshine outside and looked back at the channel dripping with water, as if it were like two worlds.


    Soon, a group of ministers also walked out of the channel one after another, looking at Li Tai and Merton who came out last with inexplicable eyes. After their personal experience, their original firm faith could not help shaking a bit.


    "That''s how it rained?" Li Shimin murmured.


    Li Tai nodded and said, "except that water can turn into water vapor after boiling, all places with water are turning into water vapor all the time, but the speed is much slower. This is also the reason why places close to the sea are rainy and far away from the sea are also the reason for drought and little rain in Guanlong, not the Dragon King controlling rainfall."


    "So, it''s absurd to ask for rain in the past." Yan shigu didn''t dare to believe. He is a historian. In history, there are many records of emperors taking the lead in asking for rain. Now it seems how ridiculous.


    Li Tai affirmed: "yes, even if you ask for rain, it''s a great coincidence! Originally, the son ministers didn''t doubt it. Fortunately, the father emperor was wise, killed the mud dragon, broke bad habits, and defeated the natural disaster with manpower, but it was criticized by the world. The son ministers naturally tried their best to correct the name of the father emperor."


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he immediately showed a proud smile and looked at Li Tai kindly.


    "The emperor is brilliant and powerful. We admire him!" a group of Ministers saluted Li Shimin one after another. They all wrote a joint letter asking Li Shimin to worship heaven and pray for rain when there was a drought in the Tang Dynasty over the years. Now it seems that they are so ignorant.


    Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "although what his Highness the king of Wei said is reasonable and justified, I''m afraid it''s still like a ground dragon turning over. It''s just speculation. What''s the conclusive evidence that his Highness the king of Wei just said?"


    When Li Tai heard the speech, he couldn''t help looking at Merton and said with a knowing smile: "everyone knows that whenever it rains, there are dark clouds all over the world. The world thinks it''s the rain master who is making rain on the rise of dark clouds, but this king thinks that it''s not the rain master, but clouds one after another, and the clouds in the sky are water vapor."


    "Cloud is water vapor?" everyone was stunned, looking at the white water vapor floating out of the channel, and then looking at the white clouds in the sky.


    Wei Zheng still stubbornly said, "if people can''t go to heaven, how can they prove that clouds are water vapor."


    Li Tai showed a trace of cunning and said, "who says people can''t go to heaven? Did Lord Wei forget the noisy sheep fairy in Chang''an City?"


    "Hot air balloon!" Wei Zheng''s eyes suddenly opened.


    Li Tai solemnly said: "after two years of painstaking efforts by Master Lu, the hot-air balloon is now enough to carry people into the sky. My purpose this time is to prove that the cloud is water vapor, and secondly, to see if there is a Fengbo rain master on the white cloud."


    All the officials were shocked. At the beginning, several Mohists made hot-air balloons in Chang''an City, but they were finally refrigerated by Li Shimin. Unexpectedly, they reappeared here two years later.


    And who in the world is not curious about whether there are immortals above the white clouds? For a moment, people''s eyes suddenly became hot.

 Chapter 676

    The backyard of King Wei''s palace!


    The original beautiful backyard was almost destroyed. In the huge open space, a huge hot-air balloon had risen slowly.


    A huge hanging basket is hung below the hot-air balloon. A carbon furnace in the hanging basket is burning, sending out bursts of heat waves, driving the hot-air balloon to sway continuously. If the hanging basket were not filled with heavy objects, I''m afraid it would have taken off long ago.


    Next to the basket, Lu Ding was busy checking the operation of the hot-air balloon. It seemed that Li Tai led Li Shimin and others to come, bowed and said, "see your majesty!"


    "Excuse me!" Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Lu Ding got up and respectfully scouted aside.


    Li Shimin looked up at the hot-air balloon in the air and found that it was much larger and more exquisite than when it first appeared in Chang''an city.


    "This thing can really carry people to heaven!" Li Shimin asked eagerly.


    Lu Ding nodded and said, "it all depends on your Majesty''s trust. After two years, the villain has finally been successfully developed. It has been tested many times in the valley, which is enough to carry hundreds of kilograms of heavy objects into the sky, and all the living creatures used have survived one by one."


    Merton frowned and said, "our goal today is the white clouds in the air. It''s not just taking off. I''m afraid we can''t do it with a carbon furnace alone!"


    But he knew that the lowest distance between the white clouds and the ground was 600 meters. It would be difficult for a hot-air balloon to reach such a high position just by a carbon furnace.


    "Lord Murphy''s insight! It''s really difficult to achieve with the carbon stove alone, but after the villain found out Murphy''s Secret brewing skill, he refined the purest liquor to assist the carbon stove. The effect is excellent!" Lu Ding said. He went to the basket and pressed a mechanism. Suddenly a flame suddenly spewed out at the bottom of the hot air ball, and the fierce hot air led the hot air ball to rise suddenly, Even if there are sandbags and heavy objects, they are a little off the ground.


    "Master Lu is really powerful. I admire him!" Merton had to admire Lu Ding''s wonderful ideas. He even used high-purity alcohol to replace the gasoline and liquefied gas commonly used in future hot-air balloons.


    "So, Mo Jijiu agrees with the hot-air balloon made by Master Lu!" Wei Zheng said.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "this is really the best and most advanced hot-air balloon at present, even if it is done by Mojia village."


    Lu Ding''s face suddenly showed a trace of excitement. It would be the greatest honor of Tang craftsmen to be recognized by Mohist Zi.


    "With the recognition of ink sacrifice wine, the king is looking forward to today''s trip!" Li Tailang said. The most important thing he invited Merton today is to check for him. Now Merton also recognized the hot-air balloon, which immediately made him full of confidence.


    Lu Ding looked up at the sky, felt the subtle wind, solemnly nodded and said, "Your Highness, today is windless and cloudy. This is the best time for a test flight."


    "Is it safe?" Li Shimin frowned. Everyone has a dream of flying, but how many people don''t hesitate in the face of the unknown sky.


    Lu Ding solemnly said, "I don''t know what''s on the nine days, but I''ve tried to fly with living creatures for many times, and all of them landed safely. As for manned, it''s the first time. If I feel uncomfortable, it''s to reduce the fire valve, and the hot-air balloon will descend slowly. In addition, I''ve also made a safety measure, parachute.


    When making hot-air balloons, mohou once mentioned that if hot-air balloons are in danger in the air and fall from high altitude, they can escape by parachute. After two years, villains have successfully made parachutes. "


    "Parachute?" Merton was suddenly stunned. At this time, he found that he really underestimated Lu Ding. He just casually mentioned the idea of parachute, but he didn''t expect Lu Ding to make it.


    When the officials understood the efficacy and principle of parachutes, they suddenly realized that no one had thought that there was such a way to escape from high altitude. As a result, with this layer of protection, the risk of taking a hot-air balloon is slightly reduced.


    "Today''s ministers are willing to take risks and take a hot-air balloon to explore the truth of the clouds!" Li Tai took a deep breath and said with hot eyes.


    "No! Your Highness the king of Wei is a golden body. How can you take risks with your body?" the ministers quickly dissuaded.


    "The sky is an unknown place. The risks are unpredictable. If the wind suddenly rises, it will be dangerous!" Wei Zheng scolded.


    Li Tai firmly said: "Kuo Di Zhi" was compiled by Ben Wang to verify that clouds are the factor of rainfall. Who do I give up? "


    Wei Zheng waved his hand and said, "a gentleman doesn''t stand under the dangerous wall to verify the things of the clouds. If he doesn''t find someone else, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward. Why should the king of Wei take personal risks."


    "That''s right! It should be so!" the ministers also advised one after another.


    "If not, let the boy come!" suddenly a voice appeared, which immediately silenced the whole audience.


    "Mojiazi!"


    When they looked back, everyone''s eyes immediately focused on Merton.


    Merton sighed: "hot air balloons are advocated by boys, and the wine making method to verify rain is also made by boys. I''m afraid there is no more suitable person than boys."


    The officials were suddenly silent. Although they were not happy with Mohist school, they were immediately worried when they saw Merton take the initiative to stand up.


    "Mo boy, I believe you understand the risks better than others." Wei Zheng looked at Merton with inexplicable eyes.


    Merton said proudly, "when the Mohist ancestors traveled all over the Far West, they took more risks than these. Taking a hot-air balloon may verify the secrets of the clouds. In the boy''s opinion, this is the most cost-effective thing in the world."


    It''s not Merton''s showing off, but Merton from later generations understands that although the hot-air balloon is risky, Lu Ding has reached the extreme, and the risk has been reduced to the lowest. Moreover, he poked it out first. Naturally, he wants him to come to an end. No matter how difficult it is, he should overcome his fear and take this hot-air balloon for a ride.


    Then Merton took a deep breath, smiled and said, "and how can you refuse such good things as being the first person to go to heaven.


    "The first man in heaven!"


    When Li Tai heard this statement, he couldn''t help regretting for a while. He hurriedly said, "this hanging basket has enough space. Let me accompany you!"


    Merton looked at Li Taiyuan''s rolling figure and said, "you''re too heavy!"


    Since the Manchu Dynasty has dissuaded Li Tai, Merton naturally can''t let Li Tai get into danger again.


    Li Tai looked at his nearly two hundred kilos of body and was suddenly dumbfounded. He could only watch him walk towards Merton and towards the basket.


    "Tell your majesty that the old slave is light. If not, let the old slave accompany mohou!" pound suddenly said.


    "Yes!" Li Shimin nodded.


    The theory of immortality was very popular in the Tang Dynasty. This time, he went out of the detection clouds to find out what was in the sky. Of course, Li Shimin would not go there in person. He would only be willing to send his most trusted pound to follow.


    "Ink offering wine, don''t you dislike the burden of old slaves!" pound looked at Merton with a smile, but there was no meaning for Merton to refuse.


    Merton looked at pound, who was as thin as firewood, and couldn''t help laughing: "with father Pang, the boy naturally wants it. There are people along the way. The boy also saves boredom."


    The two boarded the basket, and Lu Ding immediately explained the matters needing attention. After the preparation was completed, with the sandbags in the basket thrown out of the ground, the rising hot gas in the carbon furnace immediately made the two feel a huge pulling force.


    Everything is ready. Just wait for an order, and the hot-air balloon can lift off.

 Chapter 677

    "Be careful, safety is the most important!" Li Shimin ordered.


    Pound bowed and said, "don''t worry, your majesty. If you feel unwell, the old slave will naturally take the initiative to land. Mohou, what do you say?"


    Merton naturally couldn''t show his timidity and said proudly, "that''s nature."


    "Have a nice trip, no, it''s windless!" Li Tai said sour. He also wanted to experience the feeling of taking a hot-air balloon. Unfortunately, he couldn''t get what he wanted this time.


    "Loosen the cable!"


    With Lu Ding''s order, the rope was loosened one by one, and the huge hot air ball immediately left the ground slowly.


    Merton immediately felt that his feet were empty. With the swing of the basket, Merton''s center of gravity was unstable. He quickly grabbed the basket. If he took a hot-air balloon for the first time, he felt that there was no landing under his feet for the first time, and his heart was naturally flustered.


    However, to Merton''s surprise, pound on the opposite side was extremely calm. There was no change in his face. He stood steadily on the basket and rhythmically controlled the fire valve.


    With the rising of the flame, the hot-air balloon kept climbing, and the adrenaline in Merton''s body suddenly rose. Merton could even clearly hear his heartbeat, and pound opposite began to blush. After a while, they adapted to the floating state slightly, and they calmed down slowly.


    At the moment, they are interested in watching the scenery at the top. They see that they have floated above the imperial city. The panorama of the imperial city below is clearly visible. The original magnificent buildings look very small at the moment.


    "The old slave lived in the imperial city all his life, and he saw the panorama of the imperial city for the first time!" pound smacked his tongue.


    "It''s really beautiful!" Merton looked down at Chang''an city like a chessboard and also praised it.


    When they looked down, the whole Chang''an City stared at the rising giant sphere one by one.


    Hot air balloons rose from the palace of the king of Wei. Naturally, the first people to see were the people in the imperial city.


    "This is a hot air balloon!"


    When Li Tai experimented with hot-air balloons in the Imperial Palace, he would naturally inform the people in the palace in advance. In the back palace, a group of yingyanyan, led by Empress Chang sun, couldn''t help looking at the hot-air balloon in front of him. From their point of view, the hot-air balloon was too big.


    "Look, there''s someone under the basket!" a sharp eyed gong-e suddenly pointed to the basket and exclaimed. At the moment, the hot-air balloon has just risen, and everyone can clearly see the figure above.


    Empress Chang sun immediately panicked and said, "come on, go and find out if King Wei boarded the hot-air balloon!"


    A gong-e immediately took the order to leave and quickly came back and said, "tell your mother that it was not the king of Wei who boarded the hot-air balloon, but mohou and father-in-law Pang."


    Empress changsun was relieved, but she couldn''t help looking at Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "don''t worry, mother. Since Merton dares to take a hot-air balloon, he is naturally a little sure."


    Princess Changle said easily, but her clenched hands betrayed him, staring at the huge lift off.


    Too much in the womb.


    Li Chengqian also stared at the slowly rising hot-air balloon and couldn''t help showing an inexplicable smile: "fourth brother, you write the local chronicles and solve the mystery of earthquake and rain in order to make your father and emperor happy. However, you don''t know that the more Mohist secrets you use, the more Confucianists will oppose you. Do you know that today''s chaotang is still a Confucian family with great potential!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the hot-air balloon rising higher and higher, slowly, the people of the whole Chang''an city can gradually see the hot-air balloon taking off,


    "Sheep fairy reappearance!"


    In the meat market, a butcher who killed sheep flopped and knelt on the ground again.


    "What is the reappearance of the sheep fairy? This is not the hot-air balloon played by the Mohist school!"


    Even after two years, the people of Chang''an still have a fresh memory of the Yangxian incident. However, this time it did not cause panic. It was just a strange thing to see the excitement!


    "It''s so high! It''s almost in the cloud. It''s not a sheep fairy!" the butcher who just got up flopped down and knelt down again.


    When other people saw the huge hot-air balloon getting higher and smaller, their original firm faith was not only shaken for a while.


    "Mo boy, how tall!"


    Pound said hoarsely in the basket.


    Merton looked at the hourglass on the basket, estimated the time and speed and said, "at least 150 feet."


    150 feet is about 500 meters later. Although the rising speed of the hot-air balloon is slow, the height of 500 meters will still be reached soon.


    "Is there enough fuel!" pound looked at the growing clouds above and licked his lips, eager to try.


    Merton checked the alcohol, nodded and said, "only 30% of it!"


    They smiled at each other and immediately understood their meaning. After the stimulation of adrenaline at the beginning, they have gradually begun to calm down, and they don''t feel unwell. Naturally, they won''t stop taking off.


    Pound came with Li Shimin''s order. How can he not find out. Merton believed Lu Ding''s research results for nearly two years. If the hot-air balloon made by Qin Huaiyu two years ago killed Merton, he would not dare to sit down.


    "At least three hundred feet!"


    With the continuous launch of hot-air balloons, the white clouds overhead are almost close at hand and seem to be within reach.


    "The clouds are coming!" said pound excitedly.


    The primary purpose of their trip is what the clouds are. The second is to see if there is a Lingxiao temple and a place for immortals above the clouds. When the clouds arrive, that is, the purpose of their trip is about to be achieved.


    "This is the cloud!"


    As the hot-air balloon plunged into the clouds, bursts of clouds floated around them. For a moment, their breathing suddenly felt moist, and their eyebrows and eyelashes were covered with water droplets.


    Merton also reached this height for the first time. He was personally in the clouds, just like in the fog. He felt incredible in his heart.


    "Sure enough, it''s water vapor!" pound wiped the condensation on his eyebrows, not knowing whether he was happy or sorry.


    Since Li Tai and Merton can prove that clouds are water mist on the ground, I''m afraid the theory of immortals is also illusory.


    When the hot-air balloon continued to rise and break through the clouds, they saw a strong beam of direct sunlight. When they looked around, they saw the clouds rolling, but nothing, and the whole sky was still blue and clear.


    "Mo boy,..." pound opened his interfering lips and looked at Merton, as if he wanted to continue to take off.


    Merton shook his head and said, "our task has been completed and is enough to explain to your majesty and the king of Wei. Moreover, this hot-air balloon is only a preliminary finished product and is not enough to continue to rise. Moreover, we should not stay here too long."


    Pound nodded with interest and looked regretfully at the rolling clouds.


    Merton understands the people who believe in the theory of immortals. Now he personally verifies what the illusion of immortals is. At present, the control of the fire is reduced, and soon the floating force of the hot-air balloon is weakened and slowly begins to decline.


    When the hot-air balloon went back through the clouds again, the adventure was finally over.

 Chapter 678

    "We seem to have missed!"


    When the hot-air balloon flew back under the clouds, Merton bravely stretched out his head and looked down. He saw Chang''an city standing behind them and exclaimed.


    Although it''s a breeze today, it still has a certain impact on hot-air balloons. The prestige that can hardly be felt in Chang''an City has gradually increased once it reaches the sky. At the moment, they have appeared in the southwest of Chang''an city.


    "Don''t worry, when we land, there will be palace guards waiting for us," pound said without worry.


    Merton knows that at the moment, the whole Chang''an city must also be paying attention to the hot-air balloon. When they fall below the clouds, I believe they must have been found by Chang''an city. At the moment, many palace guards must be tracking the trend of the hot-air balloon.


    "Mo boy, is there really no fairy in the sky?" pound said regretfully, looking at the white clouds farther and farther above his head.


    Merton looked at pound in surprise and said, "didn''t grandpa Pang see it with his own eyes?"


    "It''s just that there are no immortals above Chang''an City, not in the whole world, and I want your noble Mohist son to tell me personally that I can give up my heart!" pound said in a leisurely tone.


    Merton immediately stopped his action, frowned at pound and said, "what does Father Pang mean by this?"


    Pound said with a smile: "I''m afraid you don''t belong to Merton if you say who is the closest choice of immortals in the world. When you first entered Chang''an City, you shocked the Tang Dynasty with your secret skills of live fish. The Taoist waidan sect, which has never been exposed in the Taoist meeting, is vulnerable in your hands. If you don''t really know the immortals, how can you see through their fake tricks at a glance, let alone ice making in summer The solar eclipse is an achievement that many people can''t achieve in their life. When you are weak, you even wave your hand. I''m afraid the skill of immortals is nothing more than that! "


    Merton sighed in his heart and immediately knew that his previous performance was too magical, which made many people suspicious. Even if he had the reputation of Mohist children, there were rumors that he was an immortal child.


    "Does Father Pang think the boy is born to know?" Merton asked with a smile.


    Pound shook his head and said: "The moment you entered Chang''an City, I investigated you. However, everything about you was flawless. All the native Mohist children attributed the success of the Mohist village to the Mohist secret skills left over by Mozi. However, I know that if these secret skills had been owned by Mohist early, Mohist would not have been reduced to the point of extinction, so now Mohist is All this is because of Mohism. It can be said that you Mohism are the God of Mohism. "


    "According to you, is it that the ancestors of Mohism didn''t have the heart to let Mohism die and specially sent boys to save Mohism?" Merton said with the truth as a joke.


    Pound said with a wry smile, "it''s a pity that your Mohist school doesn''t cultivate immortality, otherwise this may be the most reasonable explanation."


    Merton took a deep breath, looked at the approaching ground and said: "The ancients like to deify things they don''t know. However, with the progress of mankind, some theories of ghosts and gods have been gradually cracked. The Mohist school studies light, shadow and power just at the right time. Now we may feel incredible when we touch the clouds in hot-air balloons. Maybe one day, hot-air balloons will further develop. Ordinary people can fly in the air and even climb the moon Liang, board the Taibai star to find out. From then on, looking back, the hot-air balloon we are taking today is nothing more than the complacency of human beings in making the first bow and arrow and hunting small prey! "


    "Get on the moon, the white star!" pound took a breath. Naturally, he thought it was impossible. But when he thought that they had just reached the clouds, how could this be what anyone could have predicted before.


    "Father Pang, I''m going to land!" Merton did not continue the topic, but suddenly shouted.


    While they were talking, the hot-air balloon kept falling, and the whole ground suddenly became bigger and clearer. Merton obviously saw a team of cavalry galloping towards them, which was obviously the palace guard who followed them.


    "Landing!"


    Pound immediately tightened his mind and hurriedly grabbed the basket and was ready.


    Merton reminded: "Grandpa Pang, be careful. When landing, there will be some impact. It''s best to bend your legs in order to remove them and avoid falling injuries. Moreover, when landing, you are likely to bounce several times. Grandpa Pang finally waited until the hot-air balloon stopped completely before going down."


    When pound heard the speech, he immediately followed Merton''s example and learned a lot.


    "Dong!"


    As like as two peas of a sonic crash, the basket hit the snow that had not melted in the field, and then struck the snow, and then bounced several times, then slowly stopped, and it was exactly the same as what Merton said.


    When the hot-air balloon stabilized, Merton turned off the fire. The huge hot-air balloon soon shriveled down.


    Merton stepped down from the basket, couldn''t help but soften his legs and stepped on the solid land again. A feeling of peace of mind rushed into his heart. Merton was so good that pound on one side was no better. They greedily breathed the cold air on the ground.


    "Shua Shua!"


    A large number of palace guards came in the snow, led by Li Junxian, the leader of Baiqi.


    "Mohou, Grandpa Pang, are you all right?" Li Junxian hurriedly asked.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s all right, it''s all right. Just came down from the air and didn''t adapt. By the way, how long have we been up?"


    They can only estimate the time on the hot-air balloon, which is not accurate.


    "A little more than two minutes!" Li Jun thought and replied.


    Merton and pound couldn''t help looking at each other. They felt extremely long every second on the hot-air balloon. They thought it had been a long time, but they didn''t expect that they had come back up and down after only two quarters, that is, half an hour later. Of course, they also had a low flying distance and didn''t stay at all.


    "Where are we now?" said pound, frowning at the empty field.


    "If you go back to your father-in-law, this is twenty miles southwest of Chang''an City, and not far to the East is the brick road in the south of the city." Li Junxian smiled.


    "Ten miles away!" Merton was shocked. They set out from the palace, crossed Chang''an City, and went to the southwest of Chang''an City, at least 20 miles away.


    Pound immediately stepped forward and said, "I''ll go back to the palace soon. Your Majesty must be in a hurry."


    At that moment, the people immediately got up, and a hundred riders immediately presented two horses for Merton and pound to ride. As for the hot-air balloon behind them, a special hundred riders would pack it up and return it to Chang''an city.


    When they arrived at Zhuanlu road in the south of the city, there was a ready four-wheel carriage waiting. With an order to drink, they immediately ran towards Chang''an city.

 Chapter 679

    In the Tai Chi hall,


    Li Shimin and his ministers did not disperse. Instead, they returned to the Taiji hall from the palace of the king of Wei and waited quietly. No one was willing to miss such a big event as the first human exploration of clouds!


    When the hot-air balloon reappeared from the clouds, they naturally saw it. At the moment, everyone was anxiously waiting for the news.


    "Why don''t you have any news? Go and inquire again!" Li Shimin said anxiously.


    "Yes!"


    Immediately, one of the palace guards bowed down and rushed out.


    "Don''t worry about your father. There''s nothing unusual about your children watching the hot-air balloon fall. It just drops slowly. It must be no big problem," Li Tai advised.


    "Father Pang and mohou Jiren have their own heaven, and they must be all right!"


    The ministers also persuaded Li Shimin one after another. Li Shimin was a little relieved.


    However, with the passage of time, no news came, and gradually the mood of anxiety filled everyone''s heart.


    "Report!"


    Just when the people were impatient, a hundred riders came running and worshipped in the tunnel: "inform your majesty, there was a news from the southwest of Chang''an city. Mohou and panggong public security landed unharmed. Now they have accelerated to Chang''an city."


    "OK!" Li Shimin immediately hit the fist with excitement.


    "Great!"


    Li Tai couldn''t help cheering.


    Other dignitaries also breathed a sigh of relief. Even the ministers who were unhappy with the Mohist school could not help but rejoice at the news. After all, they were curious about what was above the white clouds.


    A hundred riders opened the way. Merton and pound took a four-wheel carriage and rushed to the Imperial City as fast as possible. They came down at full speed and soon arrived at the imperial city.


    "See the emperor! I''m so lucky that I didn''t lose my life and returned safely!" in front of the Tai Chi hall, Merton and pound hurried to bow to Li Shimin.


    "Just come back, just come back!"


    Li Shimin smiled and said.


    Pound is his closest confidant, and Merton''s contribution to the whole Tang Dynasty is too great. Even losing anyone is a great loss.


    "Mo sacrificing wine, I wonder if you can detect the clouds during your trip!" Li Tai asked impatiently.


    He is still young and doesn''t care about the theory of ghosts and gods. What really makes him care about is the achievement of his local chronicles.


    Merton nodded and said bluntly, "the clouds are like fog! The clouds are white, just like people entering the thick fog. There is nothing invisible, and there are condensation beads between men and women."


    "I''m afraid these drops of water are the source of rain!" Li Tai said excitedly.


    The world knows that dark clouds are everywhere and the rain is pouring. They all think that it is the Dragon King rain master who arranges the rain. Now he has proved that the cloud is the real reason for the rain.


    The theory of earthquake can only be regarded as speculation, which can not be confirmed at all, and the confirmation of cloud into rain will double the value of Kuo Di Zhi.


    "What about the clouds?" Li Shimin asked.


    When Li Shimin finished asking, all the civil and military officials looked at him one after another. After all, who can stand the immortal thing? Even Li Tai, who was delighted on one side, couldn''t help listening.


    Merton shook his head and said, "there is nothing above the clouds, only the bright sun."


    "Nothing?" Li Shimin suddenly looked disappointed and couldn''t help glancing at pound.


    Pound nodded solemnly, "tell your majesty that there is nothing unusual in the clear sky above the clouds."


    "How could it be?" the ministers were disappointed. They naturally had no doubt about Merton''s words. After all, the hot-air balloon had been made, and others could go to heaven to verify it. Merton didn''t have to lie about it.


    Moreover, Chang''an city is the imperial capital. If there is no immortal place above Chang''an City, I''m afraid it''s even more impossible in other places.


    Li Shimin lost and said, "maybe my fairy fate is not enough. If there are real immortals, maybe my father and Emperor will recover without medicine!"


    The stroke of supreme Emperor Li Yuan has become more and more serious. Since the military parade, it has almost never been seen again. In this era, stroke is an incurable disease. Everyone knows that Li Yuan lives one more day, and even Sun Simiao is helpless.


    "Your Majesty has such filial piety. I believe the emperor will be pleased to know."


    "The theory of immortals was originally illusory. Your majesty has such filial piety. The supreme emperor is relieved to learn that."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The ministers advised one after another.


    Merton could not help but despise for a while. Li Shimin was thick enough to say that he wanted to be immortal.


    "This is Wei Chen''s experience and experience of taking a hot-air balloon. Please have a look!" Merton despised Li Shimin and honestly presented the flight records. Of course, these records were not written by them in the air, but summarized by them on the carriage on the way.


    Li Shimin took a look and said in surprise, "there are birds passing by on the white clouds."


    Merton nodded and said, "there is no difference between Weichen''s breath and the ground. People are like this, not to mention birds."


    "So there is no danger in the air!" Li Tai said excitedly.


    Merton shook his head and said: "No, when people take off or land, their bodies will have abnormal reactions. It is strictly forbidden to take the hot-air balloon with diseases such as heart disease or asthma. Moreover, the hot-air balloon is not perfect. It floats with the wind in the air and cannot control the direction. This is an urgent problem to be solved. After all, what is sprayed is flame. Although the cloth used in the hot-air balloon has been specially treated, it is not absolutely safe ¡£¡±


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he immediately looked at Li Tai severely and said, "green bird, you are too fat. If you exercise a little, you will have shortness of breath. You can''t take this hot-air balloon!"


    "Ah!" Li Tai''s excited expression was like a basin of cold water.


    "Yes! Father!"


    Seeing Li Shimin''s unshakable look, Li Tai only reluctantly took command.


    "It''s a great risk, your majesty. Don''t take risks!" before Li Tai lost too long, Wei Zheng''s advice immediately made him find his balance.


    "Please think twice!"


    The ministers advised one after another.


    "I naturally understand!" Li Shimin said bitterly.


    He was also eager to try, but seeing the indignation of the ministers, he had to give up!


    The officials were not at ease. After telling them again, they dispersed. The official business in the court was busy, and they had wasted too much time.


    Merton also took the opportunity to slip away. After Li Shimin came back to his senses, he found that Merton had slipped away. He couldn''t help laughing and scolding: "your boy slipped fast!"


    Li Shimin pondered a little, turned to pound and said, "go and arrange and send a special envoy to send the imperial edict of Zheng to the Zheng family.


    "Yes!" pound bowed.


    Merton, who had just slipped out of the palace, naturally didn''t know this scene, because he was blocked by another person, Kong Yingda!

 Chapter 680

    In Chang''an City, there was a lot of discussion about hot-air balloons. Soon, the news of Mohist and pound taking hot-air balloons spread all over Chang''an City in the shortest time.


    Pound de was a eunuch in the palace. Few people knew him. However, the name of Mohist school was familiar to everyone.


    "Sure enough, it''s the Mexican family!"


    The people of Chang''an city are not surprised at this. However, if there are some strange things in Chang''an City, it is definitely related to mojiazi. Moreover, mojiazi made the hot-air balloon.


    "It''s said that the Mohist son''s trip is to explore whether there is a Dragon King cloth rain above the clouds."


    "Yes, I saw with my own eyes that mojiazi flew directly into the clouds,..."


    "Do you think there are immortals on the white clouds?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Chang''an City, people talk about it one after another. Almost all topics are related to hot-air balloons and mojiazi.


    On rosefinch Avenue,


    An inconspicuous carriage was moving slowly in the traffic. No one could imagine that it was the Mexican family who had just caused a sensation in the city with a hot-air balloon.


    In the carriage, Mozi and Kong Yingda sat face to face.


    "Ink offering wine, do you know what you did?" Kong Yingda looked at the palace messenger passing by outside the window and said with an uneasy face.


    Merton said with a smile, "this is a great joy. Why should the master be so sad?"


    Kong Yingda glared and said to Merton with a playful smile, "why do you understand that when you are confused, the world thinks it''s just that your majesty has sealed a concubine. However, you and I all know that since then, the imperial power has completely lost control. Is this what the Mohists want to see?"


    Merton said, "that''s why the court needs Kong to offer wine and advise your majesty to reflect on me three times a day."


    "Without today''s business, we are sure to let your majesty take back his life. A red pink skeleton is insignificant compared with your Majesty''s reputation." Kong Yingda said confidently.


    However, today, the Confucian sense of heaven and man has been overthrown, and the imperial power has completely lost its restriction. Only today''s persuasion has failed. I''m afraid all these reasons should be attributed to mojiazi.


    Merton shook his head and said, "you and I all know the truth. Zheng Lu''s engagement has been invalidated and there is no disrespect. The master''s move is a bit of a bone in the egg!"


    "As an emperor, he is an example of the people in the world. How can there be such a stain!" Kong Yingda shouted angrily.


    Merton sneered: "emperors are also people, not saints. Confucianism uses the standard of saints to restrain emperors. This is just a moral kidnapping. According to the master, those women who abolish marriage can''t remarry?"


    Repentance and remarriage are also very common in the Tang Dynasty. Even Princess Changle is not invalid! Since other men can marry a woman who has annulled the engagement, so is Li Shimin.


    When Kong Ying reached the end of her speech, she argued, "so the Mohists are ready to blindly cater to the emperor."


    "It is the common pursuit of a hundred schools to learn the arts of literature and martial arts, goods and emperors. So are Confucianism and Mohism. What is wrong? What is verified today is the truth. Sooner or later, the truth will be revealed. Mohism just came early." Merton said.


    Kong Yingda sneered: "Your Majesty is indeed a Ming king today, but you can guarantee that the Tang Dynasty will be a Ming king from generation to generation. If there is an uncontrollable dim king, I''m afraid it will bring China into the abyss. How will the Mohist school deal with itself at that time."


    Merton retorted, "if you are confused, you will not be subject to these ghosts and gods. At the beginning of Yang Guang''s tyranny, Confucianism was not equally powerless."


    Neither of them could persuade the other. Finally, they parted unhappily. Seeing Kong Yingda''s carriage leave, Merton couldn''t help sighing.


    This time, Confucianism and Mohism still tore their faces. Although he consciously did not set foot in the court, with the expansion of Mohist theory, the conflict between Confucianism and Mohism became more and more serious. This time, Confucianism lost the great killer of heaven and man, how can he treat Mohism with a good face.


    Zheng''s house in Chang''an city.


    In front of an embroidered building, Zheng went around anxiously. He couldn''t help worrying about gain and loss. When Zheng was granted the title of Chong Hua, it can be said that the whole Zheng family cheered.


    However, it was not long before he was happy. In Chang''an City, the rumors about Zheng and Lu had been engaged became stronger and stronger under the promotion of intentional people.


    "It must be those people of Guanlong aristocratic family!" Zheng Chang said angrily. The Guanlong aristocratic family also sent a lot of school-age women to the draft of the eldest grandson queen. However, they were robbed of the limelight by the Zheng family. Naturally, they were unhappy. If these people had not added fuel and vinegar, how could this incident have caused the court so quickly.


    When the door of the embroidery building opened, the gorgeous Zheng came out and said, "second brother, don''t worry. The big deal is that the little sister won''t enter the palace."


    Zheng Chang said reluctantly, "now it''s not the problem of being unable to enter the palace. If this matter is settled, then our Zheng family is the crime of bullying the king. I''m afraid our Zheng family can''t afford it this time!"


    Zheng said calmly, "don''t worry, second brother. Your majesty has personally issued an edict to abolish the marriage contract made by a woman under the age of 14. How can you go back and cure the Zheng family."


    Zheng Chang had a little peace of mind, but accompanying the king was like accompanying the tiger. The matter was not settled for a moment, but he couldn''t let go.


    At the moment, there was a noise outside Zheng''s house.


    "Young master, great joy! The emissary of Miss Book seal in the palace has arrived!" the housekeeper of Zheng''s house rushed in with a look of ecstasy.


    "The messenger in the palace is coming! But he is called Chonghua!" Zheng Chang dare not believe.


    "Back to the young master, it''s the canonization of Chonghua. They are waiting for the empress outside the door!" the housekeeper of Zheng''s house was very knowledgeable and changed his mind directly.


    "Good!" Zheng Chang jumped excitedly.


    When the messenger in the palace arrives, it means that the matter is completely settled! He said that the Zheng family was going to prosper.


    "Little sister! No, the grass people see the empress." Zheng Guangping yelled at Zheng, but now he knelt down directly.


    "You are my brother, how can you do this gift." Zheng quickly stepped forward to help Zheng open.


    Zheng Chang insisted on saluting and said, "my little sister will be the imperial concubine after that. You can''t abolish the ceremony, you can''t abolish the ceremony!"


    "Yes! My little sister is already a imperial concubine!" Zheng murmured.


    It was her idea to enter the palace draft, but when this moment came, she did not have the slightest joy. Her heart was empty, as if her most important thing had been lost.


    "Second brother, first go to entertain the palace emissary. After the little sister is dressed up, go to get a decree to thank her." Zheng''s voice is low.


    "Please obey your mother''s order!" Zheng Chang saluted with a straight face. Then he went to entertain the palace envoys with a happy face, but he didn''t find that Zheng''s tears turned like a bead curtain.


    However, Zheng''s tears only flowed for a moment. Soon, Zheng''s embroidered building door opened again, and Zheng appeared in front of everyone with amazing makeup.


    "Zheng''s command!" Zheng bowed and took the imperial edict from a palace eunuch.


    "Congratulations, madam!" the eunuch in the palace shrieked.


    Looking at the flattering eyes of the people, Zheng''s heart was gradually cold and his face was even more amazing.


    From then on, she was no longer a miss of the Zheng family, nor a Huaichun girl who jumped with joy every time she heard a poem by Mohist Zi, but Zheng Chonghua, who faced the strange and unpredictable back palace alone.

 Chapter 681

    After parting from Kong Yingda, Merton was silent all the way and went straight to the Mo mansion. However, before he returned to the Mo mansion, there was a noise in front of him and the carriage stopped immediately.


    "Young master, the front is blocked!" tie an whispered.


    Merton waved and said, "go and see what happened?"


    Tie an immediately went to investigate and soon came back to report: "young master Hui, Ying Guogong died! His son drove out his wife and daughter! This blocked the road."


    In the Tang Dynasty, most concubines who have no children are driven out of the house after the death of a male owner. However, it is rare to drive away his wife. No wonder so many people are watching.


    "Ying Guogong!"


    Merton frowned. He had been in Chang''an City for many years, but he had no impression of the Duke. For a moment, he couldn''t remember who it was?


    Tie''an reminded: "Lord Ying Gongwu has been an official outside for many years, rarely in the capital."


    "Ying Guogong, samurai Yu!"


    Merton was suddenly surprised and looked at the high gate courtyard in front of him.


    Ying Guogong Samurai Yu was a very low-key man in the Tang Dynasty. He was born in a businessman, but he funded Li Yuan to start the army. It was a replica of LV Buwei. After Li Yuan ascended the throne, he naturally did not forget the samurai Yu and was granted the title of Ying Guogong.


    Samurai Yu became very low-key after his rise and became famous in Chang''an city. However, what really made him famous was his daughter, Wu Zetian, the first female emperor in Chinese history.


    Merton lifted the curtain of the car and saw a thin girl about ten years old standing against two CHILDES outside the Yingguo mansion.


    "Wu Yuanqing and Wu yuanshuang, you''re not afraid of being laughed at when your father just passed away?" the girl opened her arms and protected her mother and sister who were crying together behind her.


    "Meiniang, who dares to take care of the affairs of our Wu family? Besides, your mother has three daughters in a row and has not left incense for our Wu family. Naturally, the Wu family has no share in your family business." Wu yuanshuang sneered.


    "Mei Niang!"


    Merton immediately shrunk his eyes and couldn''t help staring at the girl Wu Zetian in front of him. I''m afraid the lady behind him is Yang, the second wife of samurai Yu.


    The people around were furious, but the Wu family is the government after all. I''m afraid there''s nothing they can do even if they don''t like it anymore.


    "How about having a daughter? Princess Pingyang doesn''t let men lead the war like women!" Wu Meiniang''s young voice retorted loudly and forcefully.


    "She''s very articulate. Unfortunately, there is no precedent for her daughter to inherit the family business in the Wu family." Wu yuanshuang sneered.


    Wu Meiniang immediately bit her silver teeth, her face turned red and said, "now in the cold winter and December, we have no money left the Wu mansion. How can we live?"


    When Wu Yuanqing heard the speech, he snorted coldly, "what does your life or death have to do with me? If you want to die, you should die far away, so as not to upset us."


    The Wu family brothers themselves had many contradictions with Yang. In the past, the samurai Yu was pressed, but the contradiction did not intensify. Now the samurai Yu has passed away, and the root of the evil of the Wu family brothers has been completely exposed. Before the samurai Yu''s bones were cold, he directly drove Yang''s mother and daughter away and completely occupied the family property of Ying Guofu.


    "Come on, drive all three of them away. If you dare to appear in Wu mansion again, be careful to ask you!" Wu Yuanqing angrily said.


    Suddenly, several servants of the martial arts house gathered around and whispered, "madam, miss, don''t make it difficult for me."


    "Although my father has passed away, my mother is still the mistress of the martial arts house, but dare to commit the following!" Wu Meiniang scolded with a flat face.


    The servants suddenly felt guilty on their faces, but when they saw the expressionless face of brother Wu Yuanqing, they couldn''t help but cross their hearts and walked forward and said, "the small one is also ordered to act, offended!"


    The servants pressed step by step, forcing Wu Meiniang to retreat continuously.


    "Hum! The little girl''s film, relying on her father''s love on weekdays, now let you know that you are nothing after leaving the Wu family!" Wu yuanshuang said angrily.


    "If the imperial court had not ordered you not to be engaged under the age of 14, you would have been married long ago. Maybe you could receive some bride price?" Wu Yuanqing said coldly.


    "You!"


    Wu Meiniang was forced to retreat, but she clenched her teeth and stared at the Wu brothers stubbornly.


    "Since the Wu family doesn''t want you, why don''t you join the Mohist school?" suddenly, a clear voice came from the crowd and immediately spread to everyone''s ears.


    "Who is it? Dare to meddle in the affairs of our government!" the martial brothers suddenly shouted. They were used to being domineering at ordinary times. When they heard someone help Yang''s mother and daughter, they suddenly flew into a rage.


    Seeing the crowd, Merton came in under the escort of tiean.


    "Mohist, it''s Mohist!" naturally, many people who knew Merton in the crowd were shocked when they heard the speech.


    "Mojiazi didn''t just come back in a hot-air balloon. It''s estimated that he was just about to meet him when he was going back to his house."


    "The Mohists claim universal love. They must be disgusted with the martial brothers. That''s why they came out to fight against injustice."


    "Why does Mojia village want a girl to join Mojia?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the crowd, the people immediately talked and looked like watching a good play.


    Wu Meiniang, who had been forced to the corner, couldn''t help but feel a move in her heart. In Chang''an City, who didn''t know the name of mojiazi. Even if she had just returned to Chang''an City, she was familiar with mojiazi. When she saw that mojiazi stood out for herself, her stubborn eyes couldn''t help wetting up, but she hurried to cover up the past.


    "What do you mean, Mo family? This is the family business of our Wu family. Please don''t get involved." Wu Yuanqing stepped forward and said warily.


    At the moment, Wu Yuanqing is very similar to Merton. Both his father died and inherited the title. Even Wu Yuanqing''s title is higher than Merton, but everyone knows that Merton is at the height of the sun, which can not be compared with the martial brothers of idle people.


    Morton shook his head and said, "I''m not interested in the family affairs of the Wu family. Mo just saw the good talents and beautiful jade of the descendants of Ying Guogong today. He was happy to see them. On a whim, he wanted to take a disciple!"


    "Accept disciples!"


    For a moment, everyone was stunned. Their eyes couldn''t help looking back and forth between Merton and Wu Meiniang. Even Wu Meiniang was stunned. She didn''t expect that Merton wanted him to join the Mohist school. Unexpectedly, she accepted her as an apprentice.


    "Good talent and beautiful jade! Don''t laugh, Mo Hou. It''s just a little girl''s film. She can''t resist her shoulder and lift her hand. She''s incompetent to be a servant girl." Wu Yuanqing laughed, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.


    Merton sighed in his heart that Empress Wu Zetian of a generation was certainly incompetent as a servant girl. If the Wu family brothers could treat Wu Zetian better, they would not end up in exile to death. Then he sneered: "there is bole, then there is Qianli horse, Qianli horse often exists, but Bole doesn''t often exist. The Wu family Qianli horse is here, but you have eyes but no eyes. It''s sad."


    "A thousand mile horse of the Wu family!" the brothers of the Wu family looked gloomy. Merton metaphorized it with his horse talk. Aren''t they slaves who humiliate a thousand mile horse and don''t know Mount Tai


    Merton went straight to Wu Meiniang and asked eagerly, "your name is Wu Meiniang! The second daughter of Ying Guogong!"


    "Yes!" Wu Mei Niang nodded.


    Merton was immediately delighted. It was really her. At the moment, Annah was excited and solemnly said: "I wonder if you would like to worship me as a teacher and join the Mohist school!"


    The onlookers suddenly took a breath. The talent of Mohist school is recognized. All along, people of Mohist school don''t have the idea of apprenticeship. If someone knows that Mohist village wants to accept apprentices, I''m afraid it''s not enough for the people in line to line up from rosefinch gate to Nancheng gate! But who can think that Mohist school has a crush on a girl and wants to accept her as an apprentice..


    The brother of the Wu family suddenly turned black. He didn''t expect that the Mohist son would really take Wu Meiniang as his disciple.


    Yang Shi, who had been crying, suddenly looked happy. Now she has lost her power and was driven out of the price. If she climbs up to the Mohist school, their mother three will have a place. Even if she returns to the Wu family, it may not be impossible.


    However, Wu Meiniang ignored Yang''s crazy hint. Instead, she looked up at Merton and asked, "why do you want to worship you as a teacher? What''s the advantage of joining the Mohist school?"


    Merton laughed and said, "take me as your teacher. You are the next generation of senior sister of Mohism. No one dares to bully you anymore. If you really have the talent of a thousand miles, it''s not impossible to take charge of Mohism in the future. I don''t have a saying that a woman can''t be in charge of Mohism."


    "In charge of Mohism?"


    Wu Meiniang immediately brightened her eyes. Then she respectfully kowtowed three heads to Merton and said, "master, please accept my apprentice!"


    "Good!"


    Merton was overjoyed.


    Because of him, Zheng Chonghua, who should not have been in the palace, entered the palace and drank and pecked. He met the young Empress Wu and brought her to the door. There was a talented man in the palace.


    In this way, Li Shimin fulfilled his wish, and the Mohist school had one more successor.


    Yang''s face was suddenly happy. This was the promise of the Mohist family. Wu Meiniang naturally could not have the slightest repentance when she worshipped her teacher in public. Moreover, as the first disciple of the Mohist family, her daughter''s status is self-evident.


    The brothers of the Wu family immediately regretted. They never thought that Wu Meiniang turned over and worshipped under the door of the Mohist family.


    "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Meiniang, you can go to the Mohist school to learn arts. Your mother and sister can rest assured in the martial arts house!" Wu Yuanqing said respectfully before and after.


    "Elder brother! You..." Wu yuanshuang said anxiously. They finally took Yang out of the house. Why did they suddenly have to welcome Yang back.


    Wu Yuanqing whispered, "you fool, as long as Meiniang becomes a big disciple of the Mohist School and reveals a little ink skills, it will be enough for my Wu family to eat and drink. Compared with these interests, what does a CCTV count?"


    Even without ink skills, with this relationship with Mojia village, his Wu family will certainly rise. The Wu family is originally a businessman. With a deep-rooted profit seeking psychology and the inherent narrowness of businessmen, he drives away the Yang''s mother and daughter who have no interests before his father''s bones are cold. At the same time, once he sees the interests of Yang''s mother and daughter, he must immediately greet them with a smile.


    Wu yuanshuang suddenly realized it and echoed.


    Yang''s face was suddenly surprised. As a woman, she was driven out of the house. Her reputation can be said to be very bad. If she could return to Wu''s house, she would naturally save her face.


    When the martial brothers saw Yang''s expression, they couldn''t help but feel happy. However, before he was happy, they saw a young body blocking Yang''s face.


    "We won''t go back to the Wu family, but our mother and daughter should also get their due share of the family''s property." Wu Meiniang reiterated her advocate again.


    "You..." Wu yuanshuang was furious and wanted to scold. However, seeing Merton on the side, she wisely closed her mouth. Wu Meiniang became a disciple of the Mohist school. He can''t drink and scold at will.


    "Master, I don''t know if I can use the ink magazine as a major disciple of the Mohist school. I want to publish my experience in the ink magazine." Wu Meiniang arched her hand at Merton.


    "She deserves to be the famous Empress Wu of later generations, and her shot is the fatal key!" Murton said secretly in his heart.


    Of course, his newly accepted disciples naturally have to do their best to maintain it. Now Merton said without hesitation. "Of course, you can use the resources of Mohism."


    The brothers of the Wu family were immediately flustered. They were naturally familiar with Mo magazine. Once Wu Meiniang published their mother and daughter''s expulsion experience in Mo magazine, I''m afraid it will be known all over the world immediately. At that time, when his father''s bones were not cold, he would drive his stepmother and sister out of the house, which will immediately become a scandal all over the world.


    At that time, whether they can keep their title or not is different, let alone keep their family property.


    "Meiniang! Don''t make a fool of yourself. What''s good for you?" Wu Yuanqing said with a gloomy face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Wu Meiniang has joined the Mohist School and is called my disciple. I''m afraid it won''t be long before it will spread all over Chang''an city. Even if Wu Meiniang doesn''t say it, how long can you hide it?"


    When Wu Meiniang worships at the door of the Mo family, she is destined to be exposed to the eyes of the world. At that time, all Wu Meiniang''s past will be picked out one by one, and the things she was driven out of the house will be doomed to be hidden.


    Wu Yuanqing said with a dry smile, "if you don''t tell me, I forgot that when my father was alive, he sent someone to buy a dowry for my brother."


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "in addition to my dowry, there is also my little sister''s dowry. My mother should have all the money she deserves."


    The martial brothers looked at each other and said with a painful look on their face, "it''s a deal, but you can''t mention it."


    "It''s a deal. Don''t worry! We''ll never step into the door of the Wu family again." Wu Meiniang said firmly.


    The martial brothers suddenly looked bitter. This time they moved a stone and hit their feet. They not only had to pay a lot of blood, but the line that could have been connected with Mojia village was completely broken.


    Merton looked at the regretful Wu family brother and couldn''t help shaking his head. In his heart, he said, "I have saved your brother. Compared with the outcome of previous lives, you have at least no worries about your life in this life."


    With Merton''s support, the martial brothers did not play tricks this time. Soon, a car full of property was put in front of Yang''s mother and daughter.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" Yang said gratefully.


    With these belongings, their mother and daughter will no longer live a hard life of bumpy exile, which is much better than the treatment of driving out of the house before.


    "Since Meiniang worships under the door of the Mohist school, Mo naturally tries his best to help. Mrs. Wu has just taken care of her own door. If she doesn''t dislike it, she can go to the foot of the Mohist village. Everything will be arranged by the Mohist village, and Meiniang can take care of her when she goes back in the future." Merton said positively.


    "Then there will be Laomo village. Meiniang asks mohou to teach her." Yang is not modest. She was originally a weak woman. It will be difficult for her orphaned mother and widowed daughter to live in Chang''an city. With Wu Meiniang''s status as a big disciple in Mojia village, everything is naturally too much better. Moreover, Mojia village is the first village in the world, and its reputation is not much worse than that of Chang''an city.


    "Madam Wu, don''t worry!" Merton said solemnly, and then arranged for the children of the Mohists to send Yang''s mother and daughter to the Mohist village.


    Watching Yang''s carriage leave, Merton turned to greet Wu Meiniang and said, "let''s go! Let''s go back to Mo mansion!"


    Wu Meiniang looked at the familiar and strange Yingguo government in front of her, nodded, and followed Merton away without nostalgia, leaving only the dejected Wu family brothers.


    Merton had just left. Soon, the news of the admission of the Mohists spread all over Chang''an city.

 Chapter 682

    "The Mohist school has accepted disciples!" many people were amazed at the news.


    In fact, it''s common for celebrities to accept disciples. However, the Mohist school is just a weak year. It''s too early to accept disciples now, not to mention a female disciple, which can''t help but surprise everyone.


    "Could it be that the MOH family has this hobby..." an idle man smiled and guessed maliciously.


    The old man on one side immediately scolded: "don''t talk nonsense. This girl is only ten years old, and this is the disciple of the Mo family in public. How can she cheat? It is said that this woman is the daughter of Ying Guogong."


    Now in Chang''an City, people are talking. Soon, Wu Meiniang''s story was dug out by people. They can''t help but sigh about her encounter and gnash their teeth at the Wu family brothers.


    When he was free, Hamilton flattered and said with shame: "why did the Mozi accept a ten-year-old girl as a disciple? Is it true that, as Mozi said, this girl is a thousand mile horse!"


    Although the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was open, the status of women was extremely limited. Except that Princess Pingyang made heroes and made some achievements, most women were just Xiangfu and jiaozi. Among all the schools of thought, Merton set a precedent for accepting female apprentices.


    The old man sighed, "that''s not necessarily true. Who says a thousand mile horse can only be male, not female."


    "That''s true!" the crowd was stunned.


    "I heard that Ying Guogong is the Minister of the Ministry of works. In my opinion, Mozi must have some plans. I''m afraid he wants to borrow Ying Guogong''s reputation and seek convenience for the Mozi!" the idle man glanced away.


    The foundation of Mojia village is a factory workshop, which coincides with the Ministry of work. When Xianhan said this, he immediately got a lot of approval,


    The old man shook his head and said, "Ying Guogong has retired from the Ministry of work for nearly ten years. In addition, he has passed away and has limited influence. Moreover, if the Mohist son wants to take advantage of the situation, he only needs to make friends with the Wu family brothers. Why should he take a second daughter who has been expelled from the family as an apprentice? Isn''t it bad for Ying Guogong''s government?"


    "If you and I can guess what the Mohist family does, it''s not the Mohist family. As for the second daughter of the Wu family, we''ll wait and see."


    "Yes, yes!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone nodded.


    Among ordinary people, the acceptance of Mohist disciples is just talk after dinner. However, among all the schools of thought, it is of great significance, which means that Mohism has been inherited again.


    "Mohist disciples, or female disciples!" Kong Yingda said in surprise in the Imperial College.


    Dr. Guozixue nodded and said, "this matter has been spread all over the market, and the Mohist family said publicly that women can also be masters in the Mohist family.


    "Women are in charge!"


    When Kong Yingda heard the news, there was a sudden silence. According to Merton, could this Wu Meiniang still be in charge of Mohism in the future.


    "It''s ridiculous that a woman is in charge of the house!" Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, sniffed.


    Which of the hundreds of disciples to accept their own disciples was not carefully selected and decided only after investigating their mind. However, the Mohists just met in the street and decided to accept Wu Meiniang as their eldest disciple. In their opinion, it was very hasty.


    "Could it be that the men who are talented people have been taken back by our Confucianism. In order to break the situation, Mohist Zi has a different way to choose from women. It is said that Mohist has a knowledge called probability. Mohist Zi once showed it in the court. If calculated according to probability, there must be intelligent people among women who are equal to the number of men." Dr. Guozixue guessed.


    "Not impossible?"


    Kong Yingda''s face hardened. It is well known that both men and women can enter the school in the Mojia village, which has to make him think deeply in this regard. Moreover, women can''t be officials and it''s useless to study Confucianism. If they enter the school, they will certainly flow to other 100 schools. The prosperity of women''s medical college is one example. It seems that the Mojia may also see the benefits.


    "A woman without talent is virtue. What''s the use of talent? She won''t marry and have children in the future." Liu Yinian sniffed.


    Dr. Guozixue shook his head and said, "Rao is so. Mohism has also made great progress. The number of men and women in the world is the same. If even one in ten thousand women in the world study Mohism, it is also an extremely huge number."


    "Mohist really took the wrong side of the sword. What a thousand mile horse, in my opinion, is just a thousand gold to buy horse bones!" Liu Yinian said with hatred. This move can be said that Mohist used it repeatedly. It was not used in the ink technology exhibition and the western regions conference that time, and Liu Yinian couldn''t help thinking about it.


    "What''s the panic? There are several women in the world who have joined scholars. The move of Mohist school is just wishful thinking." Kong Yingda Leng hum. Mohist school is trying to develop Mohism among women. He believes that Wu Meiniang may be an attempt of Mohism, but it''s impossible to challenge the status of Confucianism. After all, this is an era of male supremacy.


    Confucianism did not think so. Even the other hundred schools speculated about Merton''s intention. Otherwise, it was difficult to explain why the Mohist son accepted a woman as his eldest disciple.


    If Merton knows that people think so, she will surely laugh off her big teeth! This is Wu Meiniang in her girlhood. If he doesn''t take the opportunity to tie him to the chariot of the Mohist school, won''t he be too sorry for his advantage as a jumper.


    As for Wu Meiniang, she lost the chance to reach the top of the world. On the platform of Mohism, she could not fail to make some modest achievements.


    At the moment, of course, Merton didn''t think so much, but looked at Wu Meiniang standing in front of him with satisfaction.


    After a simple dress up, Wu Meiniang cut the common horse tail of women in Mohist village. She looked like a Mohist girl. Where could she see the domineering spirit of future kings.


    "Apprentice, see you master!" Wu Meiniang sincerely saluted her disciples and offered a tea ceremony.


    Merton took the tea, took a sip and said, "you know about Mohism!"


    Wu Meiniang said with a little excitement in her eyes, "master Hui, since the Mohist School became famous in the Tang Dynasty, the deeds of the Mohist school have been known all over the world. When I followed my father in other places, I have heard the name of the Mohist School for a long time."


    Merton nodded and said, "today''s Mohist school is very different from the pre-Qin Mohist school. Today''s Mohist school has given up its political concept and loves the concept of non attack. It is internal and not external. Now Mohist technology is the capital of Mohist school."


    "Ink skill! It''s the kind of ink skill that master flies to heaven!" Wu Meiniang said warmly in her eyes. After all, she is a 10-year-old girl. Even if there is a sudden change, her innocence has not disappeared. Merton was naturally very interested in the fact that he had just reached the clouds in a hot-air balloon.


    "That''s just one of them. The so-called ink technology is just a tool, and our Mohist goal is to develop ink technology for the benefit of the world. This is our Mohist mission," Merton explained.


    Wu Meiniang nodded as if she knew something.


    Merton didn''t care. Wu Meiniang would know these things herself in the future. Instead, she got up and said, "you are now a big disciple of the Mohist school, and the Mohist School advocates concurrently cultivating 100 schools, and the other 100 schools can''t help but understand. It''s just that today I have something to visit the Taoist xuandu temple, and you''re just accompanying me to see the world."


    "Go to Taoism!"


    Wu Meiniang was shocked. She didn''t expect that she would accompany her master to Taoism on her first day of joining the Mohist school. She was immediately flattered by the honor. She immediately nodded and said:


    "Yes!"

 Chapter 683

    Xuandu temple is the base of Taoism. Today, Mohist and pound took off in a hot-air balloon. In addition to the complete failure of the Confucian sense of heaven and man, Taoism also suffered heavy losses.


    There are no immortals above the white clouds, which directly damaged the Taoist immortal system. This is like a bolt from the blue for the Taoist inner alchemy school. If there are no immortals in the sky, I''m afraid the way of longevity pursued by Taoism will be a joke.


    Night fell.


    In the xuandu temple, the Taoist School of inner Dan and outer Dan gathered in the Sanqing hall again to discuss the hot-air balloon.


    "Supervisor! The MOH family is so rampant that they attack our Taoist immortals wantonly. If our Taoist doesn''t fight back, how can the world see our Taoist family!" Taoist Xuancheng of Neidan sect said angrily.


    He is the most firm inner alchemy sect and believes in the way of longevity. However, Mohist Zi directly confirmed that there is no trace of immortals on the white clouds. How can he be reconciled.


    Taoist Changsheng immediately frowned and said, "from the old Taoist point of view, hot-air balloon is the work of mojiazi''s game, but it is not intended to attack our Taoism. Besides, it is only the moment of climbing the clouds, and it is only three hundred feet away from the base. If the immortal is close to us and easy to see, how can our road to seek immortality be so difficult."


    As soon as Taoist Changsheng said this, many Taoists immediately nodded. They have been pursuing the way of immortals all their life. They can''t accept it if Mo Jiazi finds immortals so easily, but it''s normal to find them.


    "Eldest son, I didn''t expect you to speak for outsiders. Your waidan sect is now in hot with Mohism, but don''t forget that you are a Taoist." Taoist Xuancheng snorted coldly.


    Taoist Changsheng''s face stiffened and said, "Taoist Xuancheng, don''t talk about it. Our external Dan sect is not afraid of the shadow. Since our external Dan sect can admit that the way of pill is wrong, why should the internal Dan sect hide its ears and steal the bell? The Mo family confirmed that the white clouds are not the place of immortals, and it didn''t let the Taoist take a detour."


    "So, do I have to thank the Mohists?" Taoist Xuancheng sneered.


    Taoist priest Changsheng was about to refute. Yuan Tiangang suddenly raised his hand and said, "don''t argue any more. Today, the distinguished guests of xuandu temple are here. All your arguments can be seen naturally. Li Chunfeng receives the guests!"


    "Yes!"


    Li Chunfeng, who was silent, got up and said.


    As Li Chunfeng walked out of the Sanqing hall, soon the bell rang in the xuandu temple.


    Taoist priest Changsheng and Taoist priest Xuancheng looked at each other and were surprised. This bell represents that there are distinguished guests at the xuandu temple. Now that night has fallen, who can come to the xuandu temple?


    Just when they were puzzled, a voice suddenly came from outside the temple and said, "Mo came to visit late at night with bad disciples. I hope you of Taoism will forgive me."


    With the sound, under the leadership of Li Chunfeng, Merton appeared in the Sanqing hall, followed by a girl behind him.


    "Mo family, you have the courage to come to my Taoist school!" Taoist Xuancheng roared when he saw Merton coming.


    Merton laughed and said, "why don''t I dare to come? Mohism and Taoism share the same spirit and have a close relationship. Besides, Mo didn''t do anything wrong."


    "I haven''t done anything wrong. Since Mohism and Taoism share the same spirit, why did you stab Taoism in the back?" Taoist Xuancheng got up and asked.


    Morton looked at Taoist Xuancheng with pity and said, "it is Taoism, not Taoism, that cooperates with Mohism. As far as I know, Taoism in the pre-Qin period did not have these theories of immortals. On the contrary, some magicians and yin-yang schools have such theories!"


    Taoist Xuancheng suddenly concluded that the Taoist immortal system was not created by Lao Zhuang, but by Ge Hong, the Taoist leader in the northern and Southern Dynasties. In the original Taoist theory and legend, the idea of softening the pre-Qin Warlock of Yin-Yang school created the Taoist immortal system, which gradually improved the Taoist immortal theory and made Taoism prosperous.


    "Besides, even if Mo doesn''t board the hot-air balloon this time, others will board. The results are the same. My Mohist school has the courage to know ghosts, and Taoism claims to pursue immortality all his life. If you don''t even have the courage to explore immortality, how can you talk about the way of longevity?" Merton retorted.


    Seeing this, Yuan Tiangang waved to stop Taoist priest Xuancheng and said, "the world knows that the Mohist is smart and articulate. It really deserves its reputation. Xuanchengzi has a boundless immortal road and thousands of mispaths. Success or failure is a common thing at a time, so you don''t have to worry about it."


    Taoist Xuancheng had no choice but to bow down and say, "I''m persistent, but now my Taoist school has failed to verify Xianlu twice in a row, which may damage the reputation of folk Taoist school."


    Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said, "do nothing but do everything. Now we are all in pursuit of immortality, and we don''t care how ordinary masters say it."


    "Taoist yuan is really an expert, and Mo admires him!" Merton smiled and bowed to Yuan Tiangang.


    Yuan Tiangang waved his hand and said, "please step back. I have something to say with mohou."


    "Yes!"


    Taoist Xuancheng was ordered to withdraw from the Sanqing hall. When he left, he still stared at Merton with bad eyes.


    Taoist priest Changsheng nodded slightly to Merton and left with a group of Taoists. Soon, there were only Merton and Yuan Tiangang in the whole hall.


    Yuan Tiangang ignored Merton, but stared at Wu Meiniang next to Merton.


    "It''s said that Mo Hou is happy with a master today. Is it the girl in front of him?" Yuan Tiangang looked at Wu Meiniang''s young face and changed his face slightly.


    "Yes, this is Wu Meiniang, the second daughter of Ying Guogong. She is the first disciple of the boy." Merton nodded.


    "Mei Niang met Taoist yuan! Met Taoist Li!" Wu Mei Niang bowed.


    Yuan Tiangang nodded and said, "this woman and I have a lot of fate. Ten years ago, I was invited to Yingguo mansion to meet you, but you were just born."


    Merton''s eyes flashed and said, "Oh! I didn''t expect that Taoist yuan and the bad disciples still have such fate."


    Yuan Tiangang said, "it''s such a strange fate for the disciples. I''ve seen it for the first time. Naturally, I''m deeply impressed. Marquis Mo really knows a thousand li horse with insight, and the Mohist family is really lucky."


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang, shook her head and said, "it''s man-made. If a person''s life has been determined from the birth, what''s the meaning of life? The Mohist school is now reviving, so it''s natural to have a fight."


    Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Marquis Mo is worthy of being Marquis mo. today, marquis Mo came in person. I don''t want to talk about fate with you!"


    Merton remembered the confirmation and said with a ashamed face, "in fact, the boy came to make amends today."


    Yuan Tiangang looked at Merton with great interest and said, "what''s wrong with you, master Mo, and how to make amends."


    Merton smiled shyly and said, "I don''t kill Biren, but Biren died because of me. Although today''s boy is not wrong, he also damaged the reputation of Taoism in disguise and came to make amends."


    "Since there is no mistake, the compensation will be exempted..." Yuan Tiangang shook his head and refused.


    Merton said with a smile, "Taoist yuan should think twice! The boy sent it today is a good thing. If the Taoist missed this opportunity, there will be no next time."


    Yuan Tiangang''s heart moved,


    If it is an ordinary item, Yuan Tiangang will not take it to heart. However, Merton is different. However, all items from Merton''s hand have miracles, so yuan Tiangang is not careful.


    At that moment, Yuan Tiangang said in a loud voice, "I want to open my eyes."


    "The boy has put things outside the hall, Taoist priest, please!" Merton stretched out his hand and invited.


    The four got up and came to the outside of the hall. They saw that a group of Mohist children had just packed a cylindrical object more than one person high, and the column with thick arms rushed straight into the sky. It looked very strange.


    "This is what Mo Hou said?" Yuan Tiangang frowned.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "Taoist yuan, don''t underestimate this thing. This is the latest achievement of Mohism. The astronomical telescope is the best thing to observe the stars!"

 Chapter 684

    "Astronomy, telescope, mirror!"


    Yuan Tiangang''s master and apprentice immediately looked at Merton puzzled. They could understand each of the three words, but they were confused when they were added together.


    Merton said with a smile: "I heard that Taoist yuan''s teachers and disciples are good at watching stars, and Taoist Li is famous for reforming the armillary sphere. However, what we see with our naked eyes is limited after all. If we observe the stars with this astronomical telescope, you will find that there are endless stars in the sky, and what we see with our naked eyes is just a drop in the sea full of stars."


    "A drop in the ocean!" master and apprentice yuan Tiangang was suddenly surprised. He couldn''t believe it. He looked up at the stars in the sky and looked at the astronomical telescope with thick arms in front of him.


    Merton nodded solemnly,


    The two immediately took a breath. Observing the starry sky is not only the greatest responsibility of the imperial supervisor, but also an important field of Taoism. If they can use this thing, it is self-evident to Taoism.


    "You two can imagine that with the help of this object, the stars and the moon are close in front of us. With the retraction of this astronomical telescope, our eyes continue to touch the endless starry sky, just like wandering too empty, watching the stars, the moon and the stars.


    "Wandering too empty, watching the stars and the moon." Li Chunfeng immediately breathed and his pupils widened.


    "Chunfeng, you''ve lost your manners!" Yuan Tiangang said behind him.


    "I''m looking!"


    Li Chunfeng woke up and bowed his head to make amends to Yuan Tiangang, but he still looked at the telescope in front of him.


    Yuan Tiangang was not confused by Merton, but quietly looked at Merton and said, "no merit, no reward. I''m afraid it''s not so simple for mohou to give such a heavy gift to Taoism!"


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "people''s knowledge is limited. However, with the help of ink technology, they can reach places that human beings can''t reach. They can also see the magical things that human beings haven''t seen, and even overturn our original cognition. Some things we firmly believe in may have been wrong. Of course, you will also find another magical world."


    Yuan Tiangang suddenly understood what Merton meant. The telescope in front of him may be like a hot-air balloon. It is a double-edged sword for Taoism. It may make Taoism go further, and it may also make Taoism suffer heavy losses. Looking at the telescope in front of them, they immediately avoided snakes and scorpions, and their hearts were shocked.


    Li Chunfeng swallowed his saliva involuntarily and said in a trembling voice: "with the meaning of mohou, this thing will be like a hot-air balloon, which can explore places beyond people''s reach."


    This can''t help but frighten yuan Tiangang''s teachers and disciples. The hot-air balloon has verified that there is no fairy above the white clouds. If this telescope overturns the Taoist astrological theory again, how can the Taoist school withstand such a blow in a short time.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "at present, heaven knows, earth knows, your teachers and disciples know, and my teachers and disciples know. How to deal with it depends on your teachers and disciples."


    Merton''s discourse consciousness is obvious. If Taoism wants to maintain the status quo, the Mohists will dust it up and never mention it again.


    Yuan Tiangang''s master and apprentice were in a dilemma. If the Taoist school was complacent, I''m afraid the Taoist theory would stop. If the Taoist family used this thing, I''m afraid the current Taoist astrological theory must be fallacious, and the Taoist school also suffered heavy losses.


    "Mo Hou has given Taoism a big problem!" Yuan Tiangang said with a bitter smile.


    Merton smiled and said, "the Taoist school was in an uproar when the boy took a hot-air balloon to wait for the clouds. If a hot-air balloon was placed in xuandu temple, the Taoist school could resist taking it. Whoever boarded the hot-air balloon, the result was just the same. Did the Taoist school blame the person who boarded the hot-air balloon or think the hot-air balloon shouldn''t go out?"


    Yuan Tiangang immediately stagnated and said bitterly, "this is a narrow matter of Taoism. I apologize to Marquis Mo on behalf of Taoism."


    Originally, Merton caused heavy losses to Taoism, and the whole Taoism was excited, but on the contrary, on this matter, Mozi did not make mistakes and was blamed. Taoism not only did not reflect on their mistakes, but also blindly blamed Mozi.


    Now Mohist Zi personally came to the door and handed this problem to Taoism, which put Taoism in a dilemma.


    "Mo''s mind has been sent, and my teachers and disciples are leaving!" Merton arched his hands to Yuan Tiangang''s teachers and disciples, so he turned and left with Wu Meiniang.


    Yuan Tiangang joined hands and said, "please forgive me for sending it not far away."


    Merton turned and left, but yuan Tiangang stared at Wu Meiniang who followed Merton until they disappeared. Yuan Tiangang coughed violently.


    "Master!" Li Chunfeng hurried forward to help, but suddenly his eyes shrunk and found that Yuan Tiangang''s mouth was overflowing with blood.


    Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said, "the divinatory symbol of being a teacher has been broken. This is just a backfire!"


    "Divinatory symbols have been broken?"


    Li Chunfeng''s heart was cold. He was often beside yuan Tiangang. He didn''t know how accurate the divination image of his master was. He never broke it. Today, when he saw the master and disciple of the Mohist school, he broke the divination image.


    Yuan Tiangang''s eyes were clear and bright. He quietly looked at the departure direction of the Mohist team at the gate of xuandu temple. He couldn''t help recalling a scene ten years ago.


    At the beginning, he was invited by the Duke of China to tell fortune for his children in the martial arts house. He met the newly born Wu Meiniang. Yang lied that Wu Meiniang was a man. Yuan Tiangang didn''t check for a moment and said, "if it''s a woman, he can be the son of heaven in the future."


    However, as soon as he saw it today, he suddenly realized that the original baby was really a girl, and Wu Meiniang''s life changed greatly at the moment. In his life, he had only encountered such strange things twice, and the last time was the Mexican family just now. "


    Such evil things happened in both generations of Mohist masters and disciples, especially yuan Tiangang.


    "Master, the purple micro star changes!" Li Chunfeng suddenly pointed to the direction of the northern sky and said in surprise.


    Yuan Tiangang was suddenly surprised. Huoran looked up and saw that the originally bright purple micro star was suddenly obscure and difficult to see today. The purple micro star moved, and the originally clear sky was in chaos.


    "Master, what should I do? Your majesty summoned me today to observe the stars and speculate on the fate of the Tang Dynasty. Now the purple osmanthus star is moving and the secret of heaven is chaotic. How to speculate!" Li Chunfeng trembled.


    When the hot-air balloon took off, there were no immortals above the clouds, which has caused heavy losses to the Taoism. Li Shimin asked the Taoism to speculate on the National Games, which has no intention of taking an examination of the school. This may have a bearing on the future of Taoism. If Li Shimin is not satisfied, I''m afraid the decline of Taoism will be inevitable.


    "Maybe it''s all providence!" Yuan Tiangang moved his eyes to the telescope and said bitterly


    Hearing the speech, Li Chunfeng immediately understood yuan Tiangang''s meaning. He could not help but look forward to and awe at the astronomical telescope in front of him. Indeed, just as Mohist Zi said, as a Taoist, how can he refuse such stargazing things.


    "Master, you''re in poor health, so you''d better come!" Li Chunfeng said anxiously. He speculated that the national fortune was a matter of great consumption of mind. Yuan Tiangang had vomited blood just now, so it was obviously not easy to consume mind again.


    Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said, "the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty is easy to measure, but as a teacher, he wants to take the opportunity to speculate on the fortune of the Mohist school. Only you and I can work together."


    As the authentic metaphysics of the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid there is nothing more interesting for Mohist school.


    Li Chunfeng took a deep breath and nodded. The master and apprentice walked to the telescope together.


    When master and apprentice yuan Tiangang looked at the stars from the astronomical telescope for the first time, they could no longer move their eyes. The obscure stars appeared clearly in front of them one by one, and even the stars that could not be observed appeared one by one.


    Yuan Tiangang suddenly sighed and said, "the vast world, I don''t know where to stop. The sun and moon cycle and start again and again."


    Li Chunfeng said, "since Pangu to Xiyi, it has been strange for tigers to fight dragons. When you understand the true meaning of circulation, try to discuss the Yuan machine after the Tang Dynasty."


    As if they were caught in an epiphany, they blurted out prophecies one by one.


    With the passage of time, the stars in the night sky twinkled. The two masters and disciples demonstrated each other and soon formed one mysterious prophecy after another.


    However, after they had speculated about 20 chapters, they found that Mohism had been firmly entangled with the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty. The master and apprentice looked at each other, looked down at the astronomical telescope in front of them, and continued to observe the stars.


    Pieces of prophecy came out from their two populations. The more they speculated, the more frightened they were. They clearly felt that they had insight into the secret of heaven, and there seemed to be a layer of fog in front of them, which attracted them to speculate.


    "No city, no house, no you, no me, the world is a family, reaching greatness." Yuan Tiangang stroked the dew on his body and sighed up to the sky.


    Li Chunfeng sighed: "a man is a blessing to the world. He holds a sign and selects bamboo. There is no distinction between red, yellow, black and white. There is harmony between the southeast and northwest."


    The two of them suddenly had a clear mind. Li Chunfeng was happy and said, "the roots of Mohism are about to emerge because of the size of one person, red, yellow, black and white."


    At present, Li Chunfeng can''t wait to bend over to observe the sky, but he doesn''t find that unconsciously, the long night has passed, the East has quietly turned white, and the stars have gradually retreated.


    However, Li Chunfeng is not reconciled. He is about to see through the secret of heaven. How can he be reconciled to give up. At present, he continues to use up his mind to speculate. Unexpectedly, in an instant, the gray visible to the naked eye of several strands of hair is obviously the phase of exhausting his mind.


    Seeing this, Yuan Tiangang sighed helplessly, stretched out his hand and pushed it on Li Chunfeng''s back, waking Li Chunfeng up.


    "Master!" Li Chunfeng suddenly woke up. He was close to the secret of heaven. He regretted that he could not find the chance to spy on the secret of heaven.


    Yuan Tiangang looked at the increasingly white sky in the East, the stars gradually faded, shook his head and sighed, "one Yin and one Yang, there is no beginning and no end. The end is from the end, and the beginning is from the beginning. This person is the blessing of the world. Why do you and my teachers and disciples study it deeply?"


    Li Chunfeng was taught: "in the vast number of days, the rise and fall of the world is not free. There are thousands and thousands of words. It''s better to push your back to rest."


    The two of them sorted out the achievements of the night into a volume, only to find that there were 60. Li Chunfeng bowed and said, "this book has been compiled into a volume, please name it."


    "There is no beginning and no end. The beginning is the end, and the end is the beginning. Since this book ends with pushing the back, it should be named after the picture of pushing the back!" Yuan Tiangang said.


    Li Chunfeng nodded, waved his big hand and wrote three words "pushing back map" on the page, which was officially completed as the first wonderful book of Taoism in later generations.

 Chapter 685

    The stars are hidden and the sun rises.


    Chang''an City has ushered in a new day. The people of Chang''an city are running for life as usual, day after day, day after day.


    However, for Merton, life changed a little more because he had a disciple to teach.


    In the study of Mo mansion, the master and apprentice sat opposite each other.


    "Master, do you think Taoists can use astronomical telescopes?" Wu Meiniang shook her horsetail behind her head and said curiously.


    Merton smiled without answering. Instead, he told a story: "it is said that cats have nine lives, and it is difficult to die. Even if they fall from a high building, why do they still land safely, but they will eventually die of their own curiosity."


    Wu Mei Niang frowned and said, "you said that Taoism would eventually be like a cat. She couldn''t help her curiosity and use a telescope!"


    "No!" Merton shook his head and said, "being a teacher means that if you don''t stop your curiosity, you will kill you one day!"


    Wu Meiniang and Hao Ran spit out their own tongue and quickly sat down in a serious manner, making a clever appearance.


    Merton took out a Book of Mojing and said, "Mojing is a must read of Mohism. Have you ever read it and understand the truth."


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said honestly, "I don''t understand before I have time to read."


    She just worshipped Merton as a teacher yesterday. She didn''t have time to read the Mojing.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "since you don''t understand anything, how can I teach you! You can come to me after reading the Mojing!"


    "Ah!"


    Wu Meiniang was shocked when she heard the speech and left the study with a wronged face.


    "I didn''t expect that the great Mohist family should teach disciples like this. I''m still an eye opener!" at the moment, a familiar voice came from outside the study, and Li Shimin pushed the door and entered.


    "Your Majesty, your majesty, why are you free to come to my humble house today?" Merton bowed quickly.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "if I don''t come today, how can I hear such a wonderful lecture."


    Merton said with a wry smile, "let your majesty laugh."


    Li Shimin''s eyes turned and said, "I''m very curious. If Wu answered that he knew the Mojing, how would you teach?"


    Merton smiled and said, "since you know everything, what else to teach! Naturally, you don''t have to teach any more."


    "Master cheeky!" Wu Meiniang''s voice of shame and anger came from outside the study.


    "Ha ha ha! It''s worthy of the Mohist family. Even the disciples are so unique!" Li Shimin laughed at the speech. He didn''t expect that Merton would even pit his disciples.


    Li Shimin stretched out his hand and Wu Meiniang hurriedly came in and knelt down in the tunnel: "Meiniang, see your majesty!"


    Li Shimin nodded and said in a pitiful voice, "I already know about you. I have ordered to reprimand the martial brothers. If you want to return to Yingguo government, I promise no one will dare to embarrass your mother and daughter."


    Although Li Shimin only ordered to reprimand the Wu family brothers, the matter has been heard by heaven. The Wu family brothers'' official career has been ruined and they can only live in Yingguo government all their life.


    Wu Meiniang''s eyes lit up when she heard the speech and bowed down again: "thank you for your justice. However, since Mei Niang has left the Wu mansion, she will not go back. Besides, Mei Niang has worshipped the master as a teacher, so she naturally needs to learn Mohism well."


    Li Shimin looked at Wu Meiniang in surprise and said, "why, there''s nothing left for a master like Merton. If I were you, I wouldn''t have studied."


    Merton''s face turned black when he heard the speech, and he couldn''t help touching his nose in embarrassment.


    Wu Meiniang said positively, "although the master teased the disciples, what he said is not unreasonable. The master is busy. Naturally, he can''t teach the disciples all day and learn to read the Mojing. Naturally, it''s not hard for the master to do it himself. As for reading the Mojing, it''s just the disciples'' nonsense. The Mojing is broad and profound, especially what the disciples can read just after reading."


    Hearing the speech, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "sure enough, there is the posture of a thousand mile horse. I''ll test you again. I have a horse named lion. It''s also a thousand mile horse. It''s fat and willful. No one in the whole horse guard can tame it. If you tame the horse, what should you do?"


    Morton''s heart moved. He didn''t expect Li Shimin to ask this question. He couldn''t help looking at Wu Meiniang kneeling on the ground curiously.


    Wu Mei Niang thought, her eyes turned and said proudly, "if it''s a little woman, it only needs three things!"


    "Oh!" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and looked at Wu Meiniang in surprise.


    "The first is the iron whip, the second is the iron stick, and the third is the dagger. If the lion doesn''t listen to tame, he can beat it with an iron whip. If he doesn''t tame it, he can beat him on the head with an iron stick. If he doesn''t accept it, the horse is wild and difficult to tame. It''s useless. It''s just a waste of forage to keep it. Just cut his throat with a dagger and kill meat." Wu Meiniang''s Ying Mei raised her eyebrow and snapped.


    Li Shimin accidentally glanced at Wu Meiniang, turned to Merton and said, "ink sacrifice, this is your disciple. Why don''t you evaluate the answer."


    Merton sighed, stepped forward and bowed, "I know my sin!"


    Wu Meiniang was quite complacent when she suddenly saw the master bowing down to plead guilty and looked puzzled.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with a smile and said, "I''ve never heard of boasting about others as a thousand mile horse, but I''ve never heard of boasting about being a thousand mile horse."


    "Ah!" Wu Meiniang suddenly realized, and her face turned red with shame. The emperor said that the Qianlima lion was not a horse. It was clear that her master was not obedient.


    Merton immediately smiled bitterly. He had just cheated his apprentice once, but he didn''t expect to be cheated back in the twinkling of an eye. At this time, their teachers and apprentices were even.


    "Forget it, you are not the only one who is disobedient in this world!" Li Shimin said with a faint interest.


    Merton waved, and Wu Meiniang immediately backed down as if granted amnesty. Only Merton and Li Shimin were left in the whole study.


    "Your Majesty is a heavenly Khan, all over the world. Who dares not to respect your Majesty''s orders?" Merton quickly flattered.


    "If everyone obeys the law and discipline, how could hundreds of people loot property, sneak into the prison and kill people, the business war continues, and the prices in Chang''an become volatile under my eyes." Li Shimin said angrily.


    Merton was sweating. He had already received the news that Liu Zhang Fang had committed suicide in prison. He didn''t expect the Luoyang aristocratic family to act so vicious.


    "I''m just forced to defend! Please forgive me, your majesty. Liu Zhangfang''s death has nothing to do with Wei Chen." Merton argued helplessly.


    Li Shimin said coldly, "of course it has nothing to do with you. Otherwise, do you think you can still stand and talk to me? I''ll ask you the same question again. If you have a rebellious lion, how will you tame it?"


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "the boy thinks the first two moves of the bad man''s plan are very correct. If you don''t accept it, just fight."


    "It''s still hard to tame? Is it still a waste of forage?" Li Shimin wondered.


    Merton said solemnly, "look at the boy, although the lion is difficult to tame, it is not useless. After all, the lion is a thousand mile horse. If it is used for breeding, within three years, your majesty can get a batch of young horses. Although its offspring are not as good as the thousand mile horse, they are also good breeds. If they are tamed a little, they are also a rare number of good horses."


    "Descendants? In detail," Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton took a deep breath: "Your Majesty''s worry is just the family gate. He controls the court, controls a large amount of land and controls the economic lifeline of the Tang Dynasty. Some aristocratic families have been inherited for thousands of years and have a grand reputation. Even if your majesty wants to move him, you should think twice, and your majesty is kind and does not move the sword far away."


    Li Shimin solemnly nodded. Now Datang has defeated Turks and Tuyuhun one after another, and foreign aggression has been eliminated. His eyes began to focus on the unstable factors in Datang and the aristocratic family.


    When Li Tang set up the army, these aristocratic family door valves were the greatest help of Li Tang. However, after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, these door valves became blood sucking insects of the Tang Dynasty and kept attached to the Tang Dynasty to suck blood. Could it be that Li Shimin could not see it. In particular, the business war in the Mojia village made Li Shimin see the ugly face of the aristocratic family.


    Mojia village is the first village in the world that he personally sealed. However, the world''s door valves are still desperate for interests. All kinds of means are exhausted. If Merton is not superior, Mojia village will surely become a laughing stock now.


    "I have another plan to completely solve the problem of aristocratic family. It depends on your Majesty''s determination." Merton suddenly raised his head.


    Li Shimin glanced at Merton, raised his eyebrows and said, "how can you excite him? Come on! Where does the plan come from?"


    Merton solemnly said, "without him, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has a plan!"


    "The old plan of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty?" Li Shimin thought deeply.


    Merton said excitedly: "When the Western Han Dynasty was established, in order to avoid repeating the lessons of the subjugation of the Qin Dynasty, the emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty decided to adopt the method of state enfeoffment and the coexistence of prefectures and counties, which led to the chaos of the seven countries later. At the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the state enfeoffment was even more out of tune. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty not only wanted to eliminate the great enfeoffment, but also did not want to repeat the mistakes of the chaos of the seven countries. Therefore, he adopted the suggestions of his father Yan and implemented the order of mercy It was because the power of enfeoffment in the Western Han Dynasty became smaller and smaller, so it was no longer able to threaten the imperial court until the descendants of all countries were the same as the people, and the Great Han had no danger of enfeoffment! "


    "Push the favor order!" Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly brightened. He vaguely understood Merton''s meaning.


    Merton sneered: "the current aristocratic family is very similar to the countries of the Western Han Dynasty. Most of the titles and property in the family are inherited by the eldest son, so that the power of the family is becoming more and more powerful."


    Li Shimin nodded. This is the biggest disadvantage of the direct eldest son inheritance system.


    "Nowadays, the imperial examination system is implemented in the imperial court, and the talented people are selected as officials. The printing technology is promoted. The poor children''s literacy is doubled. Over time, the poor children will certainly denounce the imperial court. Among the people and aristocratic family leaders, there are many wives and concubines in groups and many children. If you follow the order of mercy, you will make a decree to divide the family property equally between the father and the children. In this way, the aristocratic family will be one It''s divided into ten, ten hundred... But for several generations, the family of the door valve has disappeared, and everyone is also dead! "Merton said excitedly.


    "Second push! Everyone share the family property!" Li Shimin was excited and couldn''t help himself. His heart suddenly opened up, and the heart disease that had been bothering him suddenly healed without medicine.


    "Take bad people for example. The Duke died early. Bad people are unmarried. Shouldn''t they share a share of their family property as a dowry?" Merton said solemnly.


    Li Shimin nodded solemnly.


    "It''s said that the aristocratic family leaders are polygamous concubines. They are all weak women and have no survival skills. Shouldn''t they share a share of the family property to ensure a carefree life? How miserable it is for some unborn concubines to be directly driven out of the family and even exiled in the brothel. Shouldn''t they get a compensation?" Merton pitifully pity humanity.


    Li Shimin nodded deeply. If he continued to divide like this, it would not be enough to have thousands of family wealth. Moreover, once he pushed the favor twice, he would certainly get countless support. If anyone opposed it, there would be no peace at home in the future. After all, he had more partial houses and common sons in addition to the main house.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with lingering fear and said, "I''m afraid it''s their biggest mistake to offend you."


    Merton is really a catfish with sharp teeth and sharp mouth. This bite is too painful.


    Once the second push is made, the aristocratic family will split abruptly in a few generations. Even if there is a fish that has escaped the net, it is also very few, which does not pose any threat to the imperial power at all.

 Chapter 686

    Li Shimin talked with Merton for a long time, and then left with satisfaction.


    As soon as Li Shimin left, Wu Meiniang carefully moved to Merton, apologized on her face and said, "I know my mistake, and please punish me."


    Merton sighed and said, "your method is not wrong, even the most correct method, but you ignore human nature. The lion is a thousand mile horse and a priceless treasure. You can kill it in front of it. No one likes it. It''s foolish to say it in public!"


    Wu Meiniang nodded as if she knew something.


    Although later generations of Wu Meiniang are complacent about this, imagine that Wu Meiniang has been a talented person in the palace for more than ten years. For this reason, she said: "Killing is the worst means. Once your hands are stained with blood, you will never be washed away. Everyone will avoid you like snakes and scorpions. Even if one day you really have to retreat, don''t let anyone know your killing heart, including being a teacher."


    Wu Meiniang nodded after being taught.


    Merton sighed and said, "get up. You will understand these things slowly in the future. Now let Ziyi supervise your study first. If you don''t understand the Mojing, you can consult Fubo. If you don''t understand the arithmetic, you can consult shopkeeper Xu. Every ten days, the teacher will teach you in person."


    After all, Wu Meiniang is the daughter of the Duke of China. Her knowledge base has been firmly established. She doesn''t have to worry too much about cultural knowledge.


    "Young master, don''t worry, Ziyi will supervise Meiniang!" Ziyi, who had been waiting for her for a long time, nodded repeatedly. It turned out that she was the only girl in the Mo mansion. Now Wu Meiniang came to accompany her. She was eager for it?


    "Don''t worry, master. I will learn the Mojing in the shortest time!" Wu Meiniang said respectfully.


    Merton shook his head, gloated and said, "as a major disciple of Mohism, you have to learn more than that. When I''m away, you can read the books in this study at will. You can''t deeply study the theories of hundreds of schools, but you can''t understand them."


    Wu Meiniang looked at the books in the study. She was black in front of her eyes and said, "disciple, obey!"


    When she met the master of this habitual pit disciple, she was unable to get off the thief ship. However, she had no regret in her heart, but vaguely looked forward to it.


    Last night at xuandu temple, she witnessed the scene of the confrontation between Mohism and Taoism, which shocked her too much. At this time, she knew that life could be so wonderful, far more than the dryness of the high wall swing embroidery building. She joined Mohism and a new world is slowly opening to her.


    When Merton left, he glanced at Wu Meiniang, who was concentrating on reading, and nodded with satisfaction. For the famous Wu Zetian in history, even he thought he was not qualified to teach. The only free range teaching he could do was to give full play to his nature.


    Merton went out of his study and was greeted by fuber, who had already been waiting on the side.


    "Say in the living room!" Merton waved, and they came to the living room of the ink house together.


    "Back, young master, this is the bill of Mojia village this year. Please have a look at it!" Fu Bo respectfully handed over an account book.


    Merton took a look, immediately frowned and said, "there is a deficit of 50000 Guan!"


    This is the annual bill of Mojia village. After deducting the expenses and costs of the whole year, Mojia village has just balanced its revenue and expenditure, but the 50000 Guan deposit to solve thousands of worries has been spent. In fact, the 50000 Guan is in deficit.


    Fu Bo said with a wry smile, "if you add the 50000 Guan bonds that have already been spent, the deficit will be as high as 100000 Guan! This does not count the money donated by the villagers of Mojia village."


    Last year, the whole Mojia village seemed to be in debt for 10000 Guan, but in fact it was still in surplus. However, in only one year, the debt of Mojia village was as high as 50000 Guan, plus 50000 Guan national debt and more than 30000 Guan donations from the villagers, which was as much as 130000.


    However, where is the money spent? It can be said that man Chang''an city knows that Mojia village has a serious loss, but it is impossible to know that the products of Mojia village, even if the technology leaks, can still crush the small workshops that have just got up.


    When Merton saw the account books of Mojia village, he finally knew where the money of Mojia village was spent. Supporting Mr. Li''s compulsory education can only be regarded as a small part, and the real big part is all spent on the expansion of Mojia village.


    At the beginning of the year, the Mohist village was granted the world by Li Shimin. If nothing happens, the expansion of the Mohist village is radical, but it can still be sustained. However, Xiangfu''s pulse suddenly intervened, the Mohist secret skills leaked out, and a large number of small workshops surged up. The profitability of the Mohist village decreased greatly, and even some losses occurred. The construction of the Mohist village is in full swing and immersed in a dream Mojia village is not aware of all this, or is unwilling to give up most of the expansion, so that the gap is getting bigger and bigger.


    If Merton was in Mojia village, it might be solved in time. However, at that time, the western expedition was in full swing, and Merton had no time to take care of Mojia village, which slowly led to the crisis.


    "Young master, the Confucian journal collected the accounts of the Mohist village and openly questioned the usefulness of 130000 Guan." outside the Mohist house, Xu Jie came in a hurry with a Confucian journal.


    Merton took a look at the Confucian journal. He saw that the Confucian journal directly calculated that there were 130000 accounts in the Mohist village in combination with the liabilities of the Mohist village and the bills of suppliers, and publicly questioned the Mohist village in the Confucian journal.


    Fubo frowned and said, "young master, Confucianism magazine''s move is malicious. It must be to let the world misunderstand my Mohist village."


    130000 Guan is not a small amount. Apart from the imperial court, which one can have such a large expenditure and the whereabouts of so much money are unknown. Let alone ordinary people, I''m afraid the imperial court will be suspicious.


    Merton sneered: "the body of Mojia village is not afraid of the shadow. What''s terrible? What''s the progress of the expansion of Mojia village."


    Fuber said with a trace of excitement: "the main project has been completed, and only a small part has been stopped because of the young master''s order."


    He saw the expansion map of Mojia village. Once completed, it will amaze the whole Tang Dynasty. At that time, the name of Mojia village, the first village in the world, will live up to its name.


    Merton pondered for a moment and said, "at the end of this year, the list of Mojia village will be truthfully published in the sub ink journal, and a sum of money will be allocated to Mojia village. The remaining projects will be completed as soon as possible, and the Mojia village must be opened within this year. The world doesn''t want to know where the money of Mojia village is spent, so let''s talk with a new Mojia village!"


    "Yes, young master!" Forbes nodded.


    "By the way, you tell Uncle Li that there is no salary for the rest of the construction period, so let him and all the villagers work in person." Merton added at last.


    "Yes, young master!" Fubo didn''t get angry at the speech, but showed a smile. Merton''s move seemed to punish, but it gave Li Yi and Mojia village a chance to atone for their achievements.


    After all, Li Yi and Mohist village made such a big mistake. It would be unreasonable if Merton didn''t blame them. Now Merton has punished Li Yi and Mohist villagers, which means that the matter has been exposed.

 Chapter 687

    "130000 Guan! Even those who are popular and spicy in Mojia village can''t spend so much money!"


    In the pan restaurant, shopkeeper pan looked at the deficit of Mojia village exposed in the Confucian journal, and then looked at the running water in his shop. He couldn''t help sighing.


    His pan family restaurant is also a time-honored brand in Chang''an City, but it works hard all day, and its annual income can''t even compare with the fraction of the deficit in Mojia village!


    "Lao Tzu thought that the Mohists were the losers, but now it seems that not only the Mohists, but the whole Mohist village are the losers!" an idle man joked, which immediately caused everyone to laugh.


    "The idea of festival burial and conservation has been inherited by the Mohist School for thousands of years, but now it has disappeared. It seems that under the reform of the Mohist school, the Mohist village has deteriorated. The Mohist School thinks it has revived the Mohist school, but it doesn''t know that it has gradually lost the essence of the Mohist school!" a white Confucian student snorted coldly.


    "Yes, in my opinion, Mohism has gone bad." the people agreed one after another.


    "In my opinion, it''s not just Mohist village, even Mohists are just fishing for fame." the white Confucian student snorted coldly.


    The idle man then said, "where does this start?"


    The scholar in white hummed coldly, "where do you think this money can go? It must have been misappropriated by the Mohist school!"


    When the scholar in white finished, the whole audience was surprised. He couldn''t believe it and exclaimed, "how is this possible? Mohist Zi was not interested in the thousands of times and thousands of gold in the face of Tubo''s great theory. How could he use the money of Mohist village."


    People shook their heads one after another and didn''t believe what the scholars in White said. Instead of taking outsiders'' money, the Mohist village misappropriated the money of the Mohist village. It''s unreasonable. Besides, how can the Mohist son use so much money.


    "This is the reason why Xiaosheng said that mojiazi was fishing for fame. According to the news, mojiazi promised to marry Princess Changle with Qiancheng as the medium and Wanjin as the employment. In order to raise the bride price, I''m afraid this is the ultimate use of this money." the white Confucian said coldly.


    "It''s a load of nonsense! If so, why didn''t mojiazi take out the money when Mojia village was in such a crisis." a thin merchant sniffed at the speech.


    Many people nodded one after another. If mojiazi really had the money, how could the crisis in Mojia village appear.


    The Confucian scholar in white had already prepared and said, "so, do you see that the Mohist family was a little alarmed in the crisis of the Mohist village? It is obvious that the Mohist family is confident?"


    They were suddenly silent, and soon divided into several factions. Some thought that mojiazi must have broken his promise and misappropriated money, while others believed that mojiazi would not like the money.


    Some people even speculated that the Mojia village must have a secret business with this money, with ulterior motives.


    The scholar in white couldn''t help showing a proud smile. He couldn''t bear to see the Mohist school. Naturally, he spared no effort to splash dirty water on the Mohist school. As long as one suspected the Mohist school, the reputation of the Mohist school would be dirty.


    With the spread of Confucian journals, everyone smacked their tongues and talked about the whereabouts of such a huge fortune in Mojia village. For a while, Mojia village surged into the forefront of the wave again.


    In Chang''an City, the people talked about it one after another. The issuance of a special issue of an ink magazine was like pouring a basin of cold water into an oil pot, and the pot was fried in an instant.


    "Pan restaurant, 20 ink magazines!" a newsboy put 20 ink magazines in front of manager Pan and hurried to the next house immediately.


    "Xiao pan, go to each table and distribute an ink magazine!" shopkeeper pan picked up one and ordered his nephew.


    Pan''s nephew came forward and grabbed the ink magazine for distribution. He accidentally saw the front page headline and exclaimed, "the expansion of Mojia village has taken 130000 yuan!"


    "130000 Guan!" all the diners were stunned and couldn''t wait to snatch an ink magazine from the nephew of the pan family. However, when they saw the news, they were stunned one by one. They didn''t think it was the ultimate use of this huge wealth.


    "It''s impossible. How can a village spend so much money?" shopkeeper pan was stunned.


    The Confucian scholar in white humed coldly again: "to cover up! It must be the cover up of the Mohist school."


    "In my opinion, this may be true. I''ve been running along the official road in the south of the city. Everyone knows that except for the business district, most other places in Mojia village are closed and expanded, and it didn''t stop until the crisis broke out in Mojia village." the merchants who supported Mojia village just said.


    "It took 130000 yuan to expand a Mojia village. Could it be that the Mojia village could not build a city?" Leng hum, a Confucian in white.


    Other diners are also in abundance. No one can believe that so much money can be used for the expansion of a village.


    "Generally speaking, it''s impossible, but did you forget the future plan of Mojia village set up by Mojia Zi in last year''s ink technology exhibition." the merchant couldn''t help humming.


    Everyone could not help a meal. A beautiful picture of the city suddenly appeared in their mind. If the Mojia village was expanded according to the plan of mojiazi, I''m afraid that 130000 Guan was just the beginning.


    "In fact, the location of the deficit of Mojia village is well verified. It has been stated in Mojia magazine that the expansion of Mojia village will be completed years ago, and it will be open to the outside world at that time. The location of money in Mojia village is naturally clear at a glance." shopkeeper pan pointed to the report of Mojia magazine and looked forward to it.


    As soon as the special issue of Ink magazine was published, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar again. Almost everyone was looking forward to what the village would look like after the expansion of 130000 yuan.


    The new year is approaching,


    In Mojia village, most of the workshops have been shut down, and most of the migrant workers have settled their wages and returned to their hometown one by one. Even in the most critical time of Mojia village, the workers'' wages are still not in arrears. Moreover, taking Chang''an City as an example, the treatment of workers in Mojia village is second to none, and the wages in a year are much higher than those in farming.


    With the departure of the workers, the bustling Mojia village in the past began to become a little deserted. On the deserted street, a thin old man took tools to the street and began to silently do the unfinished expansion work of Mojia village.


    "Village head!"


    A villager walked up to the old man and said respectfully. He consciously followed Li Yi and joined the work.


    Then, one after another villagers consciously took to the head of the village, and the expansion team gradually increased. In addition to being young and strong, some women gradually began to join the expansion team.


    Even some children have come forward to help and do what they can. Even in the cold winter and the bitter north wind, people are still working in full swing. No one complains again, and the expansion of the whole Mojia village immediately doubled.


    Li Yi hasn''t worked like this for two years, but such familiar scenes can''t help but remind him of the moment when Merton led the creation of the Mohist village. At that time, the Mohist village was as united as it is today.


    "This is the real Mojia village!" Li Yi sighed.

 Chapter 688

    With the gradual return of the spirit of Mojia village, another outstanding case about Mojia village in Chang''an City has come to an end, that is the case of Liu Zhangfang.


    "Boss, the Changan County Government has closed the case about Liu Zhang room." Xu Jie said with a heavy face.


    After all, Liu Zhangfang is an old man of his Xu firm. He is not forbidden to sigh because he ended up like this.


    Merton couldn''t help but say with a gloomy face, "such a murder occurred in the Yamen prison of Chang''an County. It was so hasty to close the case."


    Xu Jie said bitterly, "although the world knows this is fishy, it is obviously Liu Zhang''s suicide. The magistrate of Su County tried overnight and only found that there were rumors from prison guards. Finally, he even withdrew several prison guards and had to give up!"


    Merton knew in his heart that this was probably the limit that suluosheng could do. As a magistrate of Chang''an County alone, he could not resist the power of the aristocratic family, and the aristocratic family had too many means to get rid of the crime.


    "Fortunately, all the money of Liu Zhang''s greedy house has been recovered." Xu Jie said fortunately.


    However, even if the money greedy for ink has been recovered, he is not at all happy. Although he is responsible for the matter of Liu Zhang room, the Luoyang aristocratic family acts too ruthlessly. Just as Merton taught Wu Meiniang, killing is the most taboo in any era.


    Merton snorted coldly, "this is the aristocratic family. He can not be stingy with money for his reputation, or he can be in debt for his reputation."


    Xu Jie could not help but be silent. This time, the actions of the aristocratic family refreshed his bottom line. Even in his opinion, he was lucky to have been able to retreat.


    "Although the matter of Liu accounting room is over, the Mohist family can''t help but be vigilant about the second Liu accounting room. Immediately convey the lesson of Liu accounting room to all managers and shopkeepers in the Mohist village to make an example." Merton solemnly said.


    "It should be!" Xu Jie nodded solemnly. With the lesson of Liu''s accounting room''s blood, I believe there will be no fools taking risks any more.


    "By the way, shopkeeper Liu''s greedy money has been recovered, and the ransom of Fangjia village should have arrived!" Merton suddenly thought of it.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "according to the news from the Mohist family, Luoyang aristocratic family has raised a lot of money overnight. It should have been delivered to Fangjia village before Liu''s death. Now it has been delivered to fangfu!"


    After all, fangjiacun has detained so many people of Luoyang aristocratic family. Once this matter breaks out, the consequences will be unimaginable. Luoyang aristocratic family is also decisive. They directly didn''t bargain to complete the transaction and completely wipe off their tail.


    Fang Fuzhong!


    Fang Yiai looked at the money in the carriages in front of him, and couldn''t help beating his heart.


    Although he is a dandy in Chang''an City, he has never seen such a huge fortune. If he hadn''t been close to Merton, he couldn''t even enter the chamber of Commerce in the western regions. When he suddenly saw such a huge fortune, how could he not control it.


    "Have you counted?" asked Lu.


    One side of the house housekeeper bowed and said, "if you return to your wife, there are only many more."


    Fang Yiai immediately smiled and said, "Lu Shuang is unlucky. He''s still trustworthy."


    Fang Yiai didn''t think about it. He could hold the life gate of Luoyang aristocratic family. Even if Lu Shuang wanted to break the contract, Luoyang aristocratic family didn''t dare to break it!


    "What about those people? How to deal with them?" Lu asked directly without forgetting the business.


    "Madam Hui, the people in Luoyang have taken away the money after they sent it." the housekeeper of the house said that those people are a batch of time bombs, and fangjiacun dare not leave them in his hand. Naturally, it''s safe to send them away early.


    Seeing that the matter had been completed, Lu Shi was relieved. In the twinkling of an eye, Fang Yiai picked up a treasure used by Luoyang aristocratic family to pay off the debt and couldn''t put it down. He frowned and reminded: "Erlang, my master ordered that these should be donated to the Red Cross."


    Fang Yiai''s face suddenly drooped and said, "naturally, my child knows. My father is really true. Just donate! Even anonymity!"


    He has no greedy idea about this money. The only regret is that he has less capital to boast by trumpeting his charitable deeds.


    "After all, the money came from a wrong source and was bad for your father''s reputation!" Lu said helplessly.


    "OK, OK, I know." Fang Yiai was upset and got up to arrange a carriage to donate money.


    Lu quickly arranged the housekeeper of the house to follow him and took the money to the Red Cross.


    Not long after Fang Yiai and Fang Fu left, Fang Xuanling returned to the house with a worried face, and Lu quickly welcomed them.


    "Where''s Erlang?" Fang Xuanling looked around.


    Lu Shi was surprised and said, "I just went out to donate the money of Luoyang aristocratic family."


    When Fang Xuanling heard the handling of the matter, she nodded and sat in the living room, bowed her head and meditated.


    "Master, what''s the matter?" Lu and Fang Xuanling have been sleeping together for many years. Naturally, Fang Xuanling is worried.


    "What do you say that after a hundred years, I will divide the house property equally among the children?" Fang Xuanling said suddenly.


    Lu Shi was shocked when he heard the speech, and his tears immediately flowed down. He cried: "Sir, what''s the matter with you? Is it because you''re not feeling well? We''ll go to Mo hospital to find doctor sun. If doctor sun is there, you can certainly make the master recover."


    Fang Xuanling said angrily, "what can I find, doctor sun? I''m fine. I can''t die!"


    Lu Shi didn''t believe: "master, don''t hide your illness from the doctor. If something happens to you, how can you let our mothers live?"


    Fang Xuanling is the pillar of the house. If something happens to Fang Xuanling, I''m afraid the whole house will decay immediately.


    Fang Xuanling said with a wry smile, "you don''t know my body. Are you really not ill?"


    "Then why do you think about things a hundred years later?" Lu stopped wiping his tears and didn''t understand.


    Fang Xuanling sighed, "Your Majesty went to the court today and asked me about it. If the house''s property will be divided equally among the sons in the future?"


    Lu Shi naturally said, "that''s natural. They are all your own sons. Naturally, they want to share their property equally. Why don''t you want to be partial to which one?"


    Fang Xuanling only married Lu as his wife all his life. Several children are their legitimate sons. Naturally, he has no opinion.


    Fang Xuanling said with a wry smile, "I naturally have no opinion. I believe Dalang and they won''t have any opinion. But don''t you think why your majesty cares about my family?"


    "What? Does your majesty want to fight for wealth for Princess Pu''an!" Lu suddenly changed his face.


    Because of Merton''s interference, Fang Yiai and Princess Gaoyang are completely impossible. Under Fang Xuanling''s proposal, Li Shimin betrothed Princess Pu''an, who has just turned 14, to Fang Yiai, and has signed a marriage letter. Once Princess Pu''an becomes an adult, they will get married immediately.


    Now Li Shimin suddenly cares about the property of the real estate family. How can he not let Lu think more.


    "How can the royal family see the property of Fang family? Your majesty is going to implement the order of pushing kindness among the people!" Fang Xuanling said solemnly.


    "Tuen Ling! Your majesty is determined to Tuen aristocratic family!" Lu Shi was shocked when she heard the speech. She was a lady of the family and naturally understood the meaning and function of Tuen Ling.


    Fang Xuanling nodded solemnly. He had only Lu as his wife. Their husband and wife were willing to give all their family property to their children. Naturally, poor families can only afford to marry one wife. However, some noble families marry more wives and concubines and boast that the family is prosperous, but they insist on the inheritance system of the eldest son and tilt most of their resources to the lineal family, This is the reason why the aristocratic family is becoming stronger and stronger.


    "Your Majesty, this is an operation on the aristocratic family!" Lu murmured to himself. She is also from an aristocratic family. Naturally, she knows the reason why the aristocratic family is strong.


    If we divide the family property equally among the sons and divide a family into ten, I''m afraid that within two generations, the huge aristocratic family will immediately fall apart. After all, there are examples of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty''s order of mercy. Such a huge state was finally reduced to common people.


    Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "my husband is compiling the law of Zhenguan. If there is no accident, your majesty is likely to incorporate it into the law of Zhenguan."


    The benefits of the second push are obvious. Once the aristocratic family is divided equally and there is no power threatening the imperial power in the world, it will be of great benefit to the stability of Datang. How can Li Shimin let it go easily.


    "How can those aristocratic families be reconciled?" Lu couldn''t help muttering.


    "Another storm!" Fang Xuanling sighed. Once the news came out, it must cause an uproar.


    Soon, when the new year was approaching, the news that the imperial court revised the law of Zhenguan and the sons divided their property equally caused an uproar.

 Chapter 689

    "Divide the family property equally!"


    As soon as this news came out, there was a sudden undercurrent in Chang''an City, which became the biggest breaking news at the end of the eighth year of Zhenguan. There was a lot of discussion in Chang''an city. Now the things in Mojia village can only be regarded as talk after dinner, but the equal distribution of family property is related to the lives of thousands of families.


    "What''s the matter? Who doesn''t have a bowl of water and divide the property equally among his sons." a landlord''s old wealth can''t deny it.


    A scholar explained, "Master Liu, you don''t understand. The sons here are not only the sons of their wives, but also the sons of concubines."


    "Concubines have children too." Liu''s family leader was stunned when he heard the speech.


    He was trying to give more of his family property to his concubine to have children. He was worried that his fierce wife would oppose it. Now, wouldn''t he have a high sounding reason.


    "Not only are concubines giving birth to children, but even unmarried daughters should have a dowry. There is even a rumor that if they publicly admit that illegitimate children will also get a share!" the scholar said with a smile.


    "Illegitimate children too!" the Liu family leader immediately said with a happy face, and then shook his head regretfully. He was satisfied that he could arrange his concubine''s son.


    As long as they are normal fathers, there is no one who doesn''t want to properly arrange the future of their children. After all, they want to see their concubines and children impoverished and even driven out of their homes when they are old.


    The whole city of Chang''an is full of discussions. For some rich people who are romantic and have many children, this is really good news. However, in some aristocratic families, it is like a bolt from the blue, and the undercurrent moves secretly.


    In Linghu''s mansion, the leaders of Guanlong aristocratic family came uninvited, and the discussion of Guanlong was held again.


    They are not ordinary rich families. Everyone suddenly came up with a word in their mind.


    "Order of mercy!"


    "Your Majesty, what do you mean? If you can''t do it to our family, such as me!" the master of Dou family said with a gloomy face.


    Linghu Dehui glared at the speech and angrily scolded the Dou family master: "how do you start with the aristocratic family? Is it to remove your title, or cut your official position or copy your family wealth?"


    "Brother Linghu, I believe you know better than anyone what you say and what the consequences of the grace order are. It''s just your Majesty''s killing with a soft knife." master Dou frowned.


    "Your Majesty doesn''t trust our aristocratic family!" the master of the yuan family said with an embarrassed face.


    "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger!" Linghu Deyu reminded.


    Everyone was silent for a while. Is it a matter of trust or distrust? Do all the countries in the Western Han Dynasty want to rebel? Obviously not.


    "Besides, the family property was distributed to his son, and the fat and water did not flow into the fields of outsiders." Chaishao shook his head and sighed.


    "Brother Chai''s words are different. After several generations, our aristocratic family will be divided, and it will be difficult for us to prosper today. At that time, we can''t keep our ancestors'' foundation. How can we go down to meet our ancestors in the future?" Dou said stubbornly.


    "Brother Dou doesn''t agree with that. The palms and backs of his hands are as painful as meat. Brother Dou won''t even give up his son! It''s said that brother Dou just cooked a full moon wine for eighteen sons. It''s said that concubines still have children. Brother Dou wouldn''t be so cruel to let his newborn children starve in the future!" Chai Shao sneered.


    "Chai Shao, what do you mean? I heard that after the death of Princess Pingyang, you have a wife and four concubines in succession and have several sons. If you divide the family property equally, don''t you take advantage of your meaning." Dou''s master countered.


    Chai Shao''s face suddenly stiffened. Although Princess Pingyang passed away, as long as Li Tang was one day, Princess Pingyang''s son would always be his legitimate son. Now he renewed his concubine to accompany him. Naturally, he wanted to give more to other children. Naturally, he agreed with both hands that all sons should share their property equally.


    "Don''t forget, you should learn from the past!" Chai shaoleng snorted.


    The owners of the family were suddenly silent. What happened to the Wu family could not be a secret in Chang''an city. No one could have imagined that the respectful Wu family brother suddenly turned his face and drove the second string''s legitimate mother out of the Wu family.


    "This matter is one yard at a time. Your Majesty''s move is quite disadvantageous to our aristocratic family. In the long run, the Guanlong aristocratic family must be gone." the yuan family master frowned.


    The reason why aristocratic families are so powerful is that they do not divide their families, and their legitimate sons inherit most of their property, which ensures the inheritance of aristocratic families. The lessons of the Western Han Dynasty are right in front of us. How can aristocratic families be willing to follow suit.


    "Have you ever thought about how to explain to your concubines if you oppose the equal sharing of family property?" Linghu dehu reminded.


    Master Dou''s face stiffened and said, "I will naturally leave him a share of his family property, which is enough to make him comfortable with food and clothing."


    Everyone knows what master Dou means. Naturally, this family property is much less than sharing it equally? But when you think about it carefully, how can your concubines be reconciled if they can get more property.


    "What if he is unwilling? Besides, he is a descendant of the Dou family, so he has to make sacrifices for the Dou family." master Dou said strongly.


    Other aristocratic family leaders also nodded one after another. All they had was to revitalize the family. In their view, the sacrifice made by the common son was natural.


    "Blame the Luoyang aristocratic family for making trouble! You dare to make trouble outside Chang''an city. It must annoy your majesty and bring today''s disaster to our aristocratic family." master Dou said angrily.


    The Luoyang aristocratic family Chang''an robbed the team of Mojia village on the brick road in Luoyang and set off a series of commercial wars to encircle and suppress Mojia village. Originally, they wondered why Li Shimin exposed the past so lightly, but they didn''t expect to have any subsequent moves.


    "The Luoyang aristocratic family deserved what they deserved, but we suffered an unwarranted disaster. At the end of the year, I naturally played the imperial court. The inheritance of my eldest son is the basis for the prosperity of our aristocratic family. How can we lose it in our hands?" the yuan family leader angrily scolded.


    Many aristocratic family leaders are beneficiaries of the system of inheritance of the eldest son. Naturally, they try their best to maintain the tradition of the system of inheritance of the eldest son. Many aristocratic family leaders nod when they hear the speech


    Chai Shao couldn''t help humming when he heard the speech. At the beginning, no people of insight in the Western Han Dynasty realized this. In the end, there was no residue left. Let alone returning home, I''m afraid it was even more restless at home. The contradiction between his legitimate son and his concubine increased sharply. This was a naked conspiracy. The move of Guan Long family was just a mantis in vain to be a villain.


    "No one has ever mentioned the theory of sharing the family property. Don''t you think it''s strange that your majesty suddenly mentioned it?" Chai Shao suddenly frowned.


    Master Dou nodded and said, "the Luoyang aristocratic family angered your majesty because of their bad relationship with the Mohist village."


    "The latest aristocratic family fighting for family property is that the Wu family brothers of the state government kicked out Yang''s mother and daughter, and the second daughter of the Wu family was accepted as a disciple by the Mohist son." the head of the yuan family turned his eyes.


    "Since your majesty went to the Mo mansion, the rumor of the sons sharing their property has spread in Chang''an city." Linghu de suddenly said.


    "So we have found the source of all this!" master Dou said with gnashing teeth.


    "MOH family!" the owners of the family said angrily.


    People who can become the masters of aristocratic families are the most intelligent people. Although it is a guess, it is not far from ten. Soon, Merton, a catfish under the water, surfaced.


    Not long ago, a group of aristocratic families besieged the Mojia village. Although it was the Luoyang aristocratic family that contributed, the Guanlong aristocratic family also did not save their lives, and even cooperated with the Luoyang aristocratic family. Unexpectedly, the earthly news was so fast that the Mojia Zi''s counterattack came, and it was a fatal blow to the aristocratic families.


    "What a universal love!" the master of the Dou family said angrily.

 Chapter 690

    In the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gathered, and the annual year-end imperial meeting was held as scheduled.


    At the end of previous years, the Grand Court meeting was a harmonious scene. All officials reported the great achievements made in the past year. Li Shimin wantonly rewarded the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and the monarchs and officials were in harmony.


    However, the atmosphere of this year''s Grand Court meeting is strange. Even if the reports from the officials are the unprecedented political achievements since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, they still can''t hide the strange atmosphere.


    "During the expedition of the Tang army, Fu Yun fled at the sight of the wind. So far, we have eradicated the border diseases of the Tang Dynasty and served all over the world..." said Hou junjilang, Minister of the Ministry of war.


    "The soldiers have worked hard!" Li Shimin nodded.


    Hou Junji just retired, and Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, came out immediately: "Your Majesty, this year, our taxes in the Tang Dynasty have climbed to a new high, and the commercial tax has soared by as much as 60%. Although the land tax has encountered the flood in Shandong, your Majesty has reduced and exempted several government land taxes, it is still the same as in previous years."


    Dai Zhou said that Li Shimin couldn''t help but look happy. The flood affected area in Shandong was huge and suffered heavy losses. Now production in Shandong has resumed, and the land tax next year will certainly be higher.


    As for the sharp increase of business tax, he had an unexpected joy and couldn''t help looking at Merton in the corner of the military general. Among them, the contribution of Mojia village can be said to be great.


    Then, the Ministry of rites, the Ministry of officials and the Ministry of punishment reported one by one. When the final work department reported, Merton was a little more interested.


    Since Duan Lun took the initiative to resign, the position of the Minister of works has been pending. Just recently, the Ministry of works finally appointed a new minister. This person is no stranger, but Zhang Liang, Duke of Yun, who met Merton several times and personally painted the statue of Lingyan Pavilion.


    It is worth mentioning that Zhang liangnai was born in Xingyang, and the Zheng family in Xingyang are villagers, which can not help but make Merton pay more attention.


    Zhang Liang bowed and said, "Your Majesty, now the Yellow River levee has been repaired and reinforced on the original basis. It will certainly not repeat the flood in Shandong."


    Li Shimin nodded solemnly and said, "the harm of the Yellow River has a long history. Zhang Aiqing can''t be careless. On both sides of the Yellow River, there are more standby flood discharge areas to prevent accidents and can''t be taken lightly."


    "Yes!" Zhang Liang bowed down and continued, "in addition, the brick road construction has also made gratifying progress. The brick road from Luoyang to bianzhou (Kaifeng) has been built to Xingyang (Zhengzhou) The brick road at the midpoint has reached the South Bank of the Yellow River and the North Bank of the Yangtze River respectively. Goods from the two lakes only need to cross the Yangtze River and can reach Chang''an City in five days. Compared with the past, the time is more than twice as short. "


    In this era, the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang was the money and grain center of the imperial court, so the Grand Canal came into being. However, the money and grain in the land of two lakes was also the top priority. In the past, most of them went down the Yangtze River and took the Grand Canal to Chang''an city.


    Now the brick road has been built directly from Xingyang to Hankou, an important town on the North Bank of the Yangtze River. It can be imagined that over time, Hankou will certainly become an important town not weaker than Yangzhou, let alone the promotion of brick road on both sides. Xingyang to Hankou have always been the central Plains and the hinterland of Datang.


    The officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not help but be silent. The construction of the brick road was planned according to Merton''s three horizontal and five vertical plans. Now it is just a small test. With such remarkable results, we can imagine what kind of prosperity it will be once it is completed. Of course, the huge amount of money spent on building the brick road is also distressing.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He blamed Merton, the black sheep of the family, which made even the imperial court so black. However, he now understands Merton''s behavior. Compared with the future benefits, the cost of building brick roads is nothing.


    After all, these three horizontal and five vertical figures were played jointly by him and Mohist Zi, and his contribution must be indispensable.


    After the report of the three provinces and six ministries, Li Shimin rewarded him for his achievements, but he didn''t mention the equal sharing of the family property among the sons.


    Seeing that the Grand Court meeting at the end of the year is coming to an end, the officials of Guanlong aristocratic family can''t help being anxious. If they can''t persuade Li Shimin to take back his life, I''m afraid no aristocratic family can live well this year, and the family must fall apart.


    Under the sign of a group of Guanlong aristocratic families, Linghu Deyu reluctantly listed again and said, "Your Majesty, there are many rumors in the market. Your majesty is ready to revise the law of Zhenguan and let the sons divide the family property equally. Please check it thoroughly!"


    Suddenly, the Manchu officials were not quiet, and the atmosphere condensed again.


    Li Shimin frowned and said innocently, "is there such a thing? Where did the rumor come from?"


    The Guanlong aristocratic family was suddenly dumbfounded. They didn''t expect Li Shimin to cheat and refuse to answer.


    "Your Majesty, from my humble minister''s point of view, this rumor must have come from Ying Guogong''s government. Wu Yuanqing, the new Duke of Ying Guogong, just inherited the title, drove his stepmother out of the residence and occupied Ying Guogong''s family wealth alone. His majesty ordered to reprimand. I think there is this rumor." Fang Xuanling cooperated.


    "It''s outrageous that there should be such a thing. Wu Yuanqing''s unfilial stepmother is extremely rude! Please punish him severely." Wei Zheng was most jealous of evil and became angry at the speech.


    "Lord Wei''s words are different. Wu Yuanqing is the eldest son of the Wu family. He should have inherited the title and wealth. Besides, Wu Yuanqing has not bought a dowry for the unmarried second daughter and young daughter of the Wu family, which is enough for the Yang family''s life. It was witnessed by Mo Jijiu himself. I believe that Mo Jijiu knows better than anyone else." although Ling Hu Dehui despises the behavior of the Wu family brothers, But now I have to defend him.


    When Merton heard the speech, he naturally knew that he could not hide. He only came to the conclusion that: "back to your majesty, on that day, when the minister saw the second daughter of the Wu family arguing, he angrily denounced the two brothers for being justified. He suddenly loved talents and accepted them as disciples. When the Wu family brothers saw this, he took out the wealth left by the Duke for Yang''s mother and daughter."


    Li Shimin cooperated and said, "so if you don''t accept disciples, I''m afraid Wu Yuanqing won''t take out Yang''s due property?"


    "This little minister doesn''t know, but the martial brothers didn''t take out the money!" Merton said solemnly.


    Suddenly, there was an uproar and whispered one after another. It can be imagined how miserable life would be if Yang''s mother and daughter were driven out of the house without property.


    "The matter of family property is both family and state affairs. If every family breaks up because of family property, brothers look at the wall, etiquette collapses, and the whole family governs the country and the world. If even the family is not harmonious, how can we govern the country?" Li Shimin said.


    However, all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were silent. No one answered and fought with silence.


    "What your majesty said! Many cases of the Ministry of punishment are brothers'' opposition. They are all caused by the unfair distribution of family property, which is really a human tragedy!" Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, said that he is the royal family and naturally wants to stand on the side of Li Shimin at the moment.


    "I don''t know how you arrange your children and grandchildren." Li Shimin couldn''t help but wonder. Now many ministers are old, so it''s not impolite for Li Shimin to ask.


    Fang Xuanling took the lead in saying, "I don''t want my children to be rich, I just want to be safe all my life. As for my family property, I''m going to buy one by myself. I''m impartial. If I have surplus, I''m going to donate after a hundred years to help some suffering people."


    "Fang Aiqing is really fair!" Li Shimin sincerely praised.


    "There are only children and grandchildren. I can''t manage so much after a hundred years." Fang Xuanling said happily.


    Many aristocratic family officials immediately scolded that his four sons, Fang Xuanling, were legitimate sons and naturally enjoyed sharing equally. However, there were many wives and concubines in their family. If they did share equally, I''m afraid the legitimate son''s wife would immediately make trouble. If they didn''t agree to share equally, I''m afraid a large number of concubines and common sons would cry in front of them all day, and they couldn''t live in peace.


    "Tell your majesty that the system of inheritance of the eldest son has been a tradition since China for thousands of years. It has been implemented in all dynasties to ensure social stability and brotherhood. If it is changed rashly, it may cause social unrest!" Linghu De Li advised.


    Fang Xuanling retorted, "it''s really conducive to stability, but I''m afraid brotherly harmony is just a delusion. The legitimate son inherits most of the property, and the common son can only be satisfied. How can he have no complaints in his heart!"


    The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were embarrassed. Almost all the ministers present were the beneficiaries of the inheritance system of the eldest son. They directly enjoyed the dividends of the eldest son. Where did they think of the feelings of the common son? Today, they were directly exposed to the mask of hypocrisy.


    "In this way, it is indeed quite unfair!" Wei Zheng sighed and nodded.


    The ministers couldn''t help but feel Hao Ran for a while, and as a father, they didn''t want their concubines to live a rich life. After all, only a few aristocratic families were thinking about the revitalization of the family.


    "I dare ask your majesty, in addition to the family property, there are some inseparable things, such as titles, houses and ancestral inheritance. I don''t know how to distribute them." Linghu De Yi said positively.


    After Linghu de asked, the whole audience was immediately quiet. Property can be divided. If you want to divide titles like Tuen Ling, I''m afraid it won''t be a few generations. Datang will have no honor and honor again. This is what aristocratic families fear.


    "It is for the sake of fairness that all sons divide their family property equally. However, titles and clans cannot be divided. Naturally, they are inherited by their eldest son." Li Shimin said without hesitation.


    The purpose of his second favor was to divide the aristocratic family, which lost its huge financial support. The aristocratic family with uneven people had no threat to the imperial court. Once the title was moved, all noble interests would be affected. Even Li Shimin had to think twice about the consequences. Moreover, an empty title was just a false name, and it was the official position that really had real power in the Tang Dynasty.


    Merton sighed when he heard the speech. Naturally, he knew it was the most appropriate result.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Ling Hu De Fu bowed down. He could keep his title. He also had an explanation for the Guanlong family.


    The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty took orders one after another. After all, fat water does not flow into outsiders'' fields. They are all distributed to their own sons. Moreover, they have the right to inherit the title for their eldest son, which is a great bargain.


    In this seemingly happy situation, however, everyone knows that after a few generations, the huge aristocratic family will gradually split into a series of small and medium-sized aristocratic families, and there is no momentum of today''s five surnames and seven hopes.


    With all officials bowing down one after another, the second Tuen was officially established.


    At the end of the eighth year of Zhenguan, the Grand Court will end.

 Chapter 691

    After the great court meeting, all officials left one after another with heavy worries.


    Although the effect of the second push will not appear immediately, everyone knows that the huge family must be difficult to maintain, and I''m afraid it will be inevitable to separate in the future.


    Once the current pattern of five Wangs and seven surnames is broken, I''m afraid there will be only one most prominent surname in the Tang Dynasty, that is the royal family.


    However, everyone knows that the outcome of the second push has been doomed, just as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued a push order to the feudal princes. They know the final outcome, but they are unable to change.


    In the back hall, Merton silently followed behind Li Shimin. After all the officials dispersed, Li Shimin left the Mohist son.


    "They are all their own sons. Why is there such injustice and others are trying to protect it?" Li Shimin asked suddenly and leisurely.


    Merton was stunned and thought for a while and said, "maybe in some people''s hearts, the prosperity of the family is the most important!"


    "If it were you, what would you do?" Li Shimin turned and looked directly at Merton.


    Merton is still young. He never thought of it. After pondering for a while, he said: "the boy thinks that sitting on his laurels will only harm future generations. The boy even hopes that his title is not hereditary, but lifelong. In this way, if future generations want to be prosperous, they need to work hard, which is the most correct inheritance method."


    Li Shimin looked at Merton in surprise. He didn''t expect that Merton would have such a radical answer.


    "Tenure for life?" Li Shimin couldn''t help pondering, and the more he thought, the more excited he was.


    If everyone works hard, strives to make contributions and receive titles, it will be of great benefit to the imperial court, and it will cost little. This one can be considered to join the title system of the Tang Dynasty.


    "As for property, I''m afraid you can''t be a good descendant! Just let him worry about food and clothing!" Merton waved his big hand.


    "Aren''t you afraid of your opinions?" Li Shimin didn''t understand.


    Merton immediately said with pride: "the property that Weichen worked hard for can be passed on to whoever he wants. Nothing belongs to who he is born to. This idea of getting something for nothing can only be cultivated into dandies."


    Li Shimin was not only moved in his heart, but also agreed with Merton''s words. Moreover, he was not his eldest son and took the throne by force. In his heart, he did not agree with the direct eldest son inheritance system, which was the reason why he immediately implemented the second grace.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton and softened his eyes. He said with a smile, "do you still want to follow the example of Fang Xiang and be ready to donate money."


    Merton smiled shyly, waved his hand and said: "I don''t have such a great ambition as Fang Xiang. I may prepare more money to reward outstanding students of future generations every year. This person may be a Mohist child who studies the latest ink skills, or a Confucian child who writes beautiful poems, or a doctor child who overcomes difficult and complicated diseases! Wait, there must be brave men under heavy rewards for anything that benefits the country and the people , over time, our Tang Dynasty hundred schools of thought will certainly prosper. "


    Li Shimin''s eyes brightened and he was more and more satisfied with the Mohist family. Although Merton''s idea was beneficial to the Mohist family, it also benefited the Tang Dynasty.


    "This is much better than giving huge wealth to their offspring and cultivating generation after generation of dandies?" Li Shimin affirmed.


    Of course, Merton only talked about the future vision, but did not clearly say the benefits of the moment. Now the major aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty are inseparable from Confucianism. They are firmly tied together in the Imperial Hall. The most noble aristocratic family in the world is Wuwang and Qixing, and the Confucius family in Qufu is not a big name Dingding.


    These aristocratic families are a group of extremely greedy power monsters. They greedily control power and strive to seize wealth. Only the big aristocratic family represented by Confucianism gradually splits, and the Mohist School representing the interests of the common people has a chance to breathe. Otherwise, they will only become a vassal of the aristocratic family and a tool to make money.


    "Money moves people! Some people become slaves of money and are driven by desire, while others are masters of money and use money to realize their dreams." Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin nodded irrefutably, but turned aside the topic and said, "I heard that the expansion of Mojia village cost 130000 yuan to build. I don''t know whether it is the slave of money or the master of money."


    Upon hearing the speech, Merton said bitterly: "Money is not the only thing that can make people become slaves in the world, but also fame. At the beginning, your majesty personally granted Mojia village the first village in the world. The people in the village were ecstatic. Everyone was grateful to your majesty and decided to live up to your Majesty''s expectations. This was the radical situation. Regardless of the actual situation of Mojia village, we expanded Mojia village. Fortunately, everything was in danger. Now the Mojia village has finally been built ¡£¡±


    "Finished?" Li Shimin said with a smile. "I''m tired of the scenery in the palace. The cost of 130000 yuan must be beautiful. I''m just fine tomorrow. I''ll also visit it. I don''t know whether it''s convenient for ink sacrifice wine!"


    Merton was shocked in his heart and hurriedly said, "boy, you can''t wait. Your majesty is lucky to see the Mojia village. The Mojia village must be magnificent."


    Li Shimin waved and Merton bowed down and left. Originally, he wanted to see Princess Changle, but now he had to give up.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What! Your majesty will come to Mojia village tomorrow!" Fubo said with surprise and joy in the Mo house.


    Merton nodded and said, "this time, your majesty is lucky to visit Mojia village. This time is both an opportunity and a test for Mojia. Don''t let Mojia village lose face in front of your majesty."


    "But the young master was not originally scheduled to return to the village tomorrow to attend the Mojia village meeting. Otherwise, I''ll inform Li Yi and ask him to postpone it. Be sure to meet his majesty." Fubo said anxiously.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not necessary. Your majesty wants to see the real Mojia village, not fraud. Inform Li Yi that his majesty is going on a visit in micro clothes this time and won''t disturb too many people. Let him clean up the beginning and end of the expansion of Mojia Village, and everything else will go on normally."


    Merton knew that the Mohist village was able to rise with wind and water, which was under the care of Li Shimin. It can be said that it is inseparable. Today, only the Mojia village can truthfully display and hand over an answer worthy of Li Shimin


    As night approached, the Mojia village was still brightly lit. The Mojia villagers were busy doing the final repair work. Even Li Yi was not idle and took part in the labor together.


    Soon, the last piece of ground will be leveled and compacted! A large number of villagers paved it with red bricks.


    "Finally finished!" Li Yi wiped a sweat and gasped.


    "The young master will be surprised when he comes back tomorrow!" one villager said happily, and other villagers showed their satisfaction one after another.


    Ordinary villagers just know that Merton will return to the village tomorrow, but Li Yi knows that it is not only the MOH family, but also his majesty Li Shimin who comes back with Merton.


    Li Yi looked around and looked at the Mojia village shrouded in the darkness. He couldn''t help showing an excited look. In order to expand the Mojia village, they began to suffer all the twists and turns. Now everything has achieved rich returns.


    After waiting for the night, a new Mojia village will appear in front of the world.


    Amazing!

 Chapter 692

    On the brick road in the south of the city,


    A long convoy composed of dozens of carriages drove on the smooth brick road. On both sides of the carriage, there were also disguised bodyguards and longitudinal horse guards. The party quickly went towards Mojia village.


    In one of the humble carriages, Li Shimin was reading a Book of Mojing leisurely. Originally, few people in the Tang Dynasty had read Mojing. However, since the rise of Mojia village, Mojing began to become popular in Chang''an City, and so did Li Shimin.


    However, even if he is an adult, reading the Mojing is still obscure and difficult to understand. It is not as catchy as the Analects of Confucius and thought-provoking. However, who can think of a dying Mohist who hides the ink technology to change the Tang Dynasty.


    "If the Mohist school had not produced a Mohist school, I''m afraid the theory of benefiting the country and the people would disappear in history, and that would be the biggest loss of the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin looked at Merton riding a dead shadow and sighed that the sudden rise of the Mohist village really surprised him too much.


    Moreover, Li Shimin is not wrong. In later generations, the Mohist school has never recovered. If it had not been for the mistakes of Taoism to include Mozi in Taoism, the Mohist school would have fallen forever.


    Merton noticed Li Shimin''s eyes and hurried forward: "tell your majesty, if you turn left for less than three miles, you will be the Mohist village."


    "Mohist village!" Li Shimin could not help but move in his heart and nodded, not only a little more expectation


    It can be said that the growth of Mojia village was completed under his eyes. From the poorest village in Chang''an city to a village of all households, the growth rate is simply beyond his imagination, not to mention the power of Mojia village, which is like a lever to pry the economy of Datang. How can Li Shimin not be curious about such a magical place.


    If all villages in the world follow the example of Mohist village, wouldn''t the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty be just around the corner? When he personally declared Mohist village the first village in the world, he had already moved the idea of coming to Mohist village. However, at that time, the whole country was preparing for the western expedition, which was delayed. Then Merton went on a long march with the army, Shandong Dashui, the military parade and the crisis of Mohist village. Until today, Mohist village has survived the crisis, After the expansion was completed, Li Shimin decided to take this opportunity to go to Mojia village in person to see what the magic of Mojia village is praised by everyone at the entrance of Chang''an city.


    "Turn left ahead is Mojia village. Your majesty will surely have more surprises if you get off and ride a horse." just as Li Shimin was dazzled, Merton warned aside.


    "Oh! Then I''ll wait and see." Li Shimin is as good as me.


    The carriage stopped and Li Shimin got off the carriage. Pound immediately offered a fine horse and Li Shimin turned over.


    The carriage went on, and soon came to an intersection. Turning left, a spacious and straight road suddenly came into sight.


    "This!"


    Li Shimin was stunned when he saw the road in front of him and said in surprise.


    I''m afraid there is no road in the whole world that is as wide as rosefinch street. It''s 150 meters wide, about 50 feet. Although the road in front of us is not as wide as rosefinch Avenue, it is far more exquisite than rosefinch street.


    In Li Shimin''s sight, the road ahead is a road that can drive three carriages in parallel. The lanes on both sides are made of red bricks, and the lanes in the middle are made of green bricks with clear colors.


    "Back to your majesty, the three lanes are left turn straight and right turn. We go directly to Mojia village and should take the green brick road in the middle," Merton reminded.


    "Very clever!" Li Shimin looked at the brick and nodded. There were red straight arrows inlaid with red bricks on the green bricks, and there were also arrows inlaid with green bricks to turn forward in the red brick road.


    Moreover, this is only the road to Mojia village, and there are three same brick roads on the left for vehicles starting from Mojia village.


    "The main road is facing the sky, and each side goes. Now the brick road is opened, and the carriage speed is faster. Setting their own roads can avoid the current situation of traffic jam to the greatest extent."


    "As for pedestrians, there will be special pedestrian passages on both sides of the lane to separate people from vehicles. In this way, the occurrence of accidents will be greatly reduced."


    Merton explained, pointing to the sidewalks on both sides of the road. This is a common traffic knowledge in later generations, but it is an extremely advanced concept in the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Shimin not only nodded slightly, but in Chang''an village, although the streets are extremely broad, the traffic jam is becoming more and more serious due to the increase of four-wheel carriages, and traffic accidents happen almost every day. He has received many memorials from the imperial historian, pleaded about the matter and asked for a resolution, but there has been no good way. Now he didn''t expect to solve it perfectly in Mojia village.


    What''s more amazing to Li Shimin is that all the trees are planted as isolation belts between the traffic lane and the humanoid Lane leading to Mojia village. Even in the cold winter and December, the snow has not melted, but the trees are still full of green leaves. It''s amazing for the people. It''s strange to be able to witness the green plants with their own eyes in this withered season, I couldn''t help glancing.


    "This is what you called the evergreen tree in the original ink technology exhibition." Li Shimin leaned over and reached out to pick a leaf from the evergreen tree. He was surprised to see the fresh mesophyll inside.


    Merton nodded: "This is a tree species in the south of the Yangtze River. The climate in the south of the Yangtze River is warm and the leaves are evergreen, while the trees in the north have to face the bitter and cold weather in winter. They need fallen leaves to reduce their support in order to survive the cold winter. Of course, when there are pines and cypresses that do not shed leaves in winter, all their leaves evolve into needles to reduce loss. Of course, these evergreen trees do not really do not shed leaves, but change their leaves regularly."


    "More and more so?" Li Shimin was surprised when he heard this truth for the first time.


    "The color is monotonous in winter. Weichen''s previous idea was to decorate Mojia village with these green plants. After two years of cultivation, Mojia village has indeed succeeded. I believe that over time, this kind of green plants will be able to spread in the north of Datang. It''s not vain to have snow and green." Merton thought.


    "Mohist village has a heart!" Li Shimin nodded.


    Driveway! Isolation belt! In the hands of Mojia village, it has a unique flavor.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath. Now he hasn''t arrived at Mojia village, he has a feeling that his trip is worth it, and he has more expectations for Mojia village.


    After turning from the brick road in the south of the city, it was very close to Mojia village. Merton and his party all took cars and horses. Soon, a huge memorial archway appeared in front of everyone.


    The five big words "the first village in the world" stand out in the eyes.


    "Here comes Mojia village!"


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. He wants to have a good look today. What kind of surprise will his first village in the world give himself.

 Chapter 693

    At the entrance of Mojia village,


    Li Yi and many villagers are waiting here, and many people are looking forward to it.


    "Come, come, the young master is back!"


    Seeing the arrival of the motorcade, everyone showed an excited smile. Among the crowd, a group of mothers and daughters were particularly conspicuous. This person was officially Yang''s mother and daughter. After they came to Mojia village, they were properly settled by Mojia villagers. Originally, they were still a little uncomfortable, but after seeing the expansion of Mojia village with their own eyes, they immediately liked this place.


    Today, Merton is going back to Mojia village, and her daughter Wu Meiniang will naturally follow her back. One morning, Yang''s mother and daughter waited here early in the morning.


    "Is this...?" Yang looked at the two men who were guarded by Gong in front of him with sharp eyes. He was stunned and suddenly burst into his heart.


    Merton naturally knew that he was their benefactor when he saved them from fire and water. On the other hand, Li Shimin let her shrink her eyes. She was the royal family of the Sui Dynasty and married Ying Guogong warrior Yu. How can she forget seeing Li Shimin several times.


    "Welcome you! Welcome young master!"


    Li Shimin and Merton got off the horse. Li Yi hurried forward and said respectfully.


    Today is Li Shimin''s private visit. Li Yi is knowledgeable and doesn''t reveal Li Shimin''s identity. He shows great respect on the outside. In fact, he has been trembling in his heart for a long time for fear of making a mistake.


    "Hello, young master!" the villagers greeted Merton one after another.


    "You''ve worked hard!" Merton greeted everyone one by one and handed the shadow to the children of the Mohist family. Naturally, Li Shimin''s horse was taken over by the bodyguard.


    In the motorcade, Wu Meiniang got off a carriage and her eyes lit up when she saw Yang''s mother and daughter.


    "Master!" Wu Mei Niang went to Merton and whispered.


    "Go and reunite with your mother!" Merton waved his hand. Wu Meiniang immediately ran to Yang''s mother and daughter. The mother and daughter haven''t met for many days. Naturally, they have a lot to say.


    After Wu Meiniang got off, the other carriage passengers also got off one after another. The leader was Li Chengqian, followed by Li Tai, Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang.


    Today, Li Shimin rarely has free time. It can be said that it is not too much to come to Mojia village for investigation or a visit. Naturally, it is better for the whole family to go out together.


    But it''s a pity that Princess Changle didn''t come today to avoid suspicion, which makes Merton very sorry.


    "The villagers have been looking forward to hearing that the young master will examine the workshops today!" Li Yi tried to control his excitement.


    Merton nodded and stretched out his hand. A carriage with a modified appearance of a common sightseeing car in later generations rushed over. Merton stretched out his hand and invited him: "please change this car to have a good look at the whole picture of Mojia village."


    Li Shimin looked at the sightseeing bus in Mojia village, and then looked at the tightly sealed four-wheel carriage behind him. Li Chengqian''s brother and sister followed him. Merton finally got on the bus and sat next to Li Shimin. Pound took over the driver''s position, while Li Yi led the way in a four-wheel carriage.


    With a cry, the sightseeing carriage slowly drove into the Mojia village, and suddenly a new village appeared in front of everyone.


    "This is Mojia village!" Li Tai and others exclaimed as they looked at the brand-new buildings at the entrance of the village.


    Except for the old residential area, all buildings in Mojia village have been newly built in the past two years. The planning is neat and new. Although it is not as tall as Chang''an City, it is better than novelty and delicacy. Mojia village can be said to be a village, rather than a city, and a brand-new city.


    Moreover, the roads in Mojia village are also six lane brick roads. There are also green belts on both sides of the brick roads. The only difference is that the green plants in the isolation belt are not trees, but low four seasons green, which are also corrected to be flat.


    "These Sijiqing are trimmed. When spring comes, Sijiqing will send out many new leaves, which are green and very beautiful," Merton said, pointing to Sijiqing.


    "It''s really pleasant to see green plants in winter!" Li Shimin nodded. The evergreen trees in four seasons can not only be used as isolation belt, but also greening the environment, which has a certain artistic conception.


    Merton proudly said, "Weichen doesn''t like to make Mojia village a cold village. When planning Mojia village, it has been stipulated that at least 30% of the whole Mojia village is covered with green plants. Green plants can not only beautify, but also make the air fresh, fit in body and mind and prolong life."


    "It has the artistic conception of Taoism."


    Li Shimin nodded. He also went to other royal gardens for summer vacation all year round. There are beautiful mountains and rivers, green trees and fresh air, which makes people relaxed and happy. It is indeed much more comfortable than Chang''an city. However, Mojia village directly combines the city with the forest. In a busy city, he can also enjoy the breath of the forest, the noise and the tranquility, Such wonderful ideas are indeed admirable.


    "I didn''t expect brother Mo to have such talent. Even if yu Wenkai is alive, I''m afraid he can''t help praising brother Mo''s design." Li Chengqian said sincerely. Chang''an city was designed by Yu Wenkai. It was originally the best in the world. Now, compared with Mojia village, I''m afraid it is a little inferior in road construction.


    It''s so pleasant to drive on such a driveway. Even Zhuque street in Chang''an city doesn''t feel so.


    "Your Highness is flattered. My idea is only based on the drawings of master Yuwen. How can I compare with master Yuwen?" Morton said modestly.


    While the carriages were moving forward, there were more and more carriages in each lane. Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded, and the carriages leading the way stopped full. Li Shimin looked up. There was a crossroads ahead. At the crossroads, two village guards were responsible for directing the traffic. Not only did their convoy stop, but they stopped all the carriages going east and West, Only carriages in the North-South lane can pass, while passers-by also follow the traffic flow.


    "These two people are responsible for the traffic at the intersection, allowing the carriages in the north-south and east-west directions to pass alternately," Merton explained.


    In this era, it is not as intelligent as the traffic lights of later generations. Moreover, the traffic command at the intersection has just been implemented, and Merton can only fool it to pass alternately. As for the function of traffic lights of later generations, Merton did not even mention it, because Merton knows that the most advanced in this era is not the most practical.


    "Why? In this way, it''s not a waste of time to stop the waiting carriage." Li Tai didn''t understand.


    Merton explained: "Your Highness the king of Wei doesn''t know. The four-wheel carriage came from the Mohist village. There are a lot of carriages in and out of the village. If you don''t use this method, every intersection will be seriously blocked and difficult to pass. Compared with the time wasted by the blockage, the time of parking and waiting can be said to be insignificant." Merton explained.


    Merton finished saying that the motorcade in the north-south direction had just passed. As soon as pound urged, the carriage started immediately and passed through the intersection unimpeded.


    "Sure enough, there is a way."


    Although the fool''s command of traffic is primitive, Rao is so, which has satisfied Li Shimin. He said to pound, who drives the carriage: "after the new year, send an order to Chang''an, so that he will solve the congestion problem of Chang''an city according to this law."


    "Yes!"


    Pound responded.

 Chapter 694

    Through the crossroads, people came to the most prosperous business district of Mojia village.


    With the gradual rise of Mojia village, a large number of outsiders have increased, and more and more people come to Mojia village to do business. The business district of Mojia village has long been a market for miles, and now the new year is coming. The business district of Mojia village is even more crowded,


    "Sugar gourd, sugar gourd made of honey! It''s beautiful and delicious!"


    "Sanyuan preserved fruit is made of the best quality chicken heart persimmon..."


    "Osmanthus cake!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the business district, all kinds of snacks are sold along the street.


    "Let me have a bunch of candied haws!" Li Zhi looked at the tempting food and salivated.


    "I want a preserved fruit of Sanyuan!" said Princess Jinyang.


    Without Merton''s command, some children of the Mohists soon offered some candied gourds, preserved fruits and some delicious snacks. Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang enjoyed themselves,


    "It''s a bit prosperous!" Li Shimin nodded.


    Merton smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Chang''an city is not easy, and the price is very high. Mojia village has just sprung up, and the price is generally one or two percent lower than Chang''an city. People are naturally willing to come to Mojia village to buy."


    Mojia village has convenient transportation, low price and a wide variety of goods, which has become a new choice for people in Chang''an city.


    "It''s not easy to live in a big place! Hit the nail on the head!" Li Shimin sighed after tasting it carefully.


    So far, the price of Chang''an city is the highest in the Tang Dynasty, even Luoyang. Although Luoyang is rich, its transportation is developed, goods from all over the country rush in, the competition is fierce, and the price naturally drops a lot. However, many goods in Chang''an City need to be transported from Luoyang, with an extra layer of freight.


    "It''s not easy for people to live. Naturally, the province can save the province. Moreover, in Mojia village, most of the goods sold are high-quality and cheap. Children and old people are free from deception. On weekdays, there are village guards to maintain, and there is no act of bullying the market. Bullies make trouble and extort. Even if the sales are a little low, traders are willing to come to Mojia village. Over time, there is today''s scene." Merton pointed to the business district, One armed Uncle Wang personally led the patrol team.


    Li Shimin was naturally impressed by the one armed Uncle Wang of the Veterans'' team and couldn''t help nodding.


    Children and old people are not bullied and do not dominate the market. Even Chang''an city does not have such a good business atmosphere. It is simply a paradise for businessmen. How can some merchants be fools and open stores in Mojia village one after another? This makes the business district of Mojia village grow like a snowball.


    Throughout the year, the scope of the business district has directly doubled, and the number of merchants has soared several times.


    If it is like this in other places, Li Shimin may doubt that he is acting for him. However, for the Mohist village that believes in the concept of Mohism, Li Shimin chose to trust without hesitation.


    Suddenly, there was a noise in front of the commercial street, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Why do you close our shop? Come on! Let''s see how Mojia village bullies a group of weak women!"


    A sharp and mean voice spread all over the street and immediately attracted many people''s onlookers.


    "Dare to smash my field, and don''t inquire about my black tiger''s name in Chang''an city!" a fierce voice also expressed support.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he couldn''t help smiling at Merton and said, "didn''t the ink sacrifice just say that the children and old people in the Mojia village are not deceived and don''t bully the market?"


    Morton looked embarrassed. Before he ordered, Li Yi, who was in front of the car, immediately ran over with a big sweat on his face and said, "I tell you that the village guard is seizing a casino and brothel and bumped into the noble. Please forgive me."


    "Seal up casinos and brothels! Why?" Li Shimin frowned. Casinos and brothels are also very common in Chang''an city. There is nothing wrong in his understanding.


    Merton bowed: "Your Majesty, there are a large number of migrant workers in Mojia village, and most of them are men. Most of these men are the backbone of their families, and the money they earn is hard-earned money. Where to fill in this gold selling cave will cause family contradictions and husband and wife centrifugal. Moreover, most of these brothel women are hard-working people, either cheated or kidnapped. How can Mojia village have the heart to pay for it again Sprinkle a handful of salt in the wound. "


    At the moment, it is not the Huakui who is excellent in both color and art but the private prostitutes who see that there are many workers in Mojia village and specialize in selling their bodies.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with satisfaction. I''m afraid any father-in-law would be greatly comforted to hear what his future son-in-law said, not to mention that Merton proved it with practical actions.


    Li Chengqian''s heart moved. He couldn''t help thinking of Merton''s accusation against the brothel at the western regions grand meeting that day. Only he was not surprised by Merton''s behavior.


    "The casino is a place of ten gambles and nine swindles. Most gamblers are separated from their families and even don''t hesitate to sell their children and women. Huanghe gambling has always been a social hazard and the most breeding place for evil. If Mojia village wants to last long, it must eradicate these two evils, so the boy ordered to ban Huanghe gambling in Mojia village early in the morning." Merton said firmly.


    Li Shimin suddenly said, "you can forbid Mojia village. What if these people go to other places to whore and gamble?"


    Merton said reluctantly, "boy, it''s the limit to ban Mojia village. However, if anyone is found to be addicted to whoring and gambling in Mojia village, he will be severely punished. If he has a position, ordinary villagers will no longer enjoy dividends and those who do not change after repeated education will be expelled from Mojia village."


    "So serious!" Li Shimin couldn''t help being startled by Merton''s determination.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "brothel gambling house is not only a public hazard, but also contrary to the concept of Mohism. If it is allowed to exist, the revival of Mohism is probably just a piece of empty talk."


    Li Shimin could not help but be shocked by Merton''s self-discipline and sighed: "the world knows that the rise of Mohism is a fluke. However, when I see it today, I find that it is a fluke for Mohist village to have today!"


    Hearing the change in Li Shimin''s words, Li Chengqian took a deep breath: "this behavior of ink offering wine can be said to benefit the village and the people. However, if the whole Tang Dynasty is implemented, it will certainly make many families in the world harmonious, happy and healthy. His son''s ministers asked his father to order the prohibition of folk brothel gambling houses."


    Part of Li Chengqian''s speech is to see the harm of brothel gambling shop. On the other hand, it is for his own reputation. After all, the harm of whoring and gambling is well known, but everyone is unwilling to pierce this layer of window paper. Now if Li Chengqian''s speech is spread today, it will certainly be famous and cause high praise from the government and the public.


    Moreover, he paid great attention to propriety, but banned folk brothel gambling houses, but let go of official prostitutes such as Jiaosi square.


    Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian unexpectedly and didn''t immediately promise: "brothel gambling houses have existed for thousands of years and have not been banned in all dynasties. Besides, do you know how many brothel gambling houses there are in the Tang Dynasty? Once these women without chicken hands are banned, how can they survive?"


    Li Shimin would only gladly agree if someone else did this. However, Li Chengqian is the future prince he trained. He can''t help but increase the difficulty and prepares to take a test of Li Chengqian. He doesn''t care about his son''s behavior of winning fame.


    Li Chengqian immediately broke into a cold sweat. He only wanted to win fame. Where did he think of this relationship? Once these women live on the streets and have no food and clothing, I''m afraid he will be cursed all over.


    "My son Meng Lang!" Li Chengqian pleaded.


    "Since you don''t have a solution, wait until you think of a solution, and then play it in the court." Li Shimin said softly.


    "Yes! Father!" Li Chengqian took a deep breath, and his eyes couldn''t help floating to the brothel gambling house being sealed up by the roadside. The conflict between the two sides became more and more serious.


    "Mojia village, I advise you to stay on the front line and don''t block our way of wealth. It''s good for everyone!" said the tall black tiger with a fierce face.


    One armed Wang shuleng hummed: "Mojia village expressly stipulates that all shops shall not operate the casino brothel industry. You are determined to act recklessly. Why have you ever put Mojia village in the eyes."


    The black tiger sarcastically said: "the casino brothels are everywhere in Chang''an city. Even the heavenly king Lao Tzu doesn''t care. Why should you manage Mojia village!"


    "Even if it can be opened in other places, it can''t be opened in your Mojia village?" the bustard with fat and heavy makeup also said high spirited.


    "Since it is in the boundary of our Mojia village, it belongs to our Mojia village. Our Mojia village is a village. There is no reason to open the gambling house to the village!" one armed Uncle Wang said strongly.


    "In my opinion, the Mohist village doesn''t appreciate it. The people behind me, even the Mohist Marquis, are afraid to bow down. I still advise the Mohist village not to humiliate itself." the black tiger has no fear.


    The procuress on one side, with the same proud face, obviously stood a big man behind him.


    On the carriage, Li Chengqian suddenly changed his face. The brothel gambling houses are all profiteering industries. How can there be no support behind them? What he thought before was indeed too natural. If he rashly put forward it. I''m afraid it will be difficult.


    "I''d like to hear which big man is supporting the brothel gambling house. My legal column just lacks a hot news." an old voice suddenly said.


    Black tiger suddenly changed his face and couldn''t help staring at an old man who strode over. This man was Han Zheng, a former doctor of law.


    "Master Han is coming!"


    "Han Tiemian is coming!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many onlookers exclaimed one after another.


    In Mojia village, what people fear most is not the village head Li Yi, or the one armed Uncle Wang, the leader of the village guard, but the present master Han Zhenghan.


    Since Han Zheng arrived in Mojia village, all disputes in Mojia village have been handed over to Han Zheng for settlement, and Han Zheng acts selflessly. Whether it is Mojia villagers or outsiders, they are treated equally and do things very fairly. It can be said that Han Zheng takes great credit for the fair business atmosphere created by Mojia village.


    No matter what dispute it is, as long as it comes to Han Zheng, it will certainly be handled most fairly. Even the children of the Mohist family will not be biased at all. Even the powerful aristocratic family will encounter dust in front of Han Zheng. The reason for all this is that Merton promised to give Han Zheng independent adjudication power.


    "With the rule of law!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed. He was not interested in these small disputes. However, when he saw Han Zheng''s arrival, the people around him talked one after another, which made him more interested.


    "Han Fuzi! He didn''t make trouble in Mojia village, but Mojia village took the initiative to trouble us. You can''t manage this!" black tiger felt guilty when he saw Han Zheng''s arrival. If they want to have a foothold in Mojia village, how can they not understand the powerful figure in Mojia village.


    Han Zheng looked at the brothel and gambling shop behind them. He frowned and said, "let me ask you if you knew the regulations of Mojia village prohibiting the opening of brothel gambling shop!"


    "I don''t know!" the procuress denied.


    Han Zheng immediately turned his head and looked at one armed Uncle Wang. One armed Uncle Wang stepped forward and suddenly shouted: "Nonsense, all merchants who come to Mojia village must sign a document, requiring that their industries should not violate the national law and the rules of Mojia village, and specifically stating that it is strictly prohibited to open gambling houses and brothels. This is the document signed by you and others at that time, as well as your signature and monogram. You dare to argue!"


    Zhou Zhongren was the Chinese who bought injured horses for Mojia Zi in the west market. When the business of Mojia village gradually prospered, Zhou Zhongren naturally came to Mojia village.


    When the black tiger and the procuress saw the document taken out by one armed Uncle Wang, their faces suddenly changed. When they signed the document at that time, they didn''t think it was the key evidence at the moment.


    "So what? We haven''t violated the national law. What can you do to us?"


    Han Zheng nodded and said, "you really haven''t violated the national law."


    The black tiger and the procuress suddenly showed a proud smile.


    However, without waiting for them to be happy for too long, they heard Han Zheng continue: "but Mojia village doesn''t let you open brothels and gambling houses in Mojia village, which also doesn''t violate the national law! In Han''s life, the Chinese law is the largest, the village rules are the second, and the secular human feelings are the last. Since you haven''t violated the national law, it''s decided by the village rules."


    "National law is the biggest!" Li Shimin sighed when he heard Han Zheng''s words. As expected, he was still that old-fashioned character. Although Han Zheng repeatedly refuted his face, he appreciated Han Zheng''s persistence.


    The black tiger and the procuress suddenly turned black. If they were dealt with according to the village rules of Mojia village, they would only have to slip away.


    As for the people behind them, they dare not. If Han Fuzi is directly published in ink journals, their fate will be even worse.


    "OK, let''s go. I hope Mojia village won''t regret it!" the black tiger said angrily.


    Although the procuress on one side was unwilling, she also knew that if she insisted on it, she couldn''t get well here, so she had to leave with hatred.


    Suddenly, a shrill cry came from the brothel. A woman with dishevelled hair suddenly appeared at the window and screamed, "help, they forced good people into prostitution!"


    Then he was dragged back by several figures, and there was no sound.


    The procuress and the black tiger suddenly changed their faces. The procuress immediately looked flustered and dodged.


    The black tiger looked fierce and whispered, "it has nothing to do with you. We are ready to leave. Don''t mind your own business!"


    Han Zheng angrily shouted, "forcing a good man to become a prostitute has violated the national law. Do you want to mind my own business and take them all down!"


    "Yes!"


    Uncle Wang, one armed, had long been unhappy with the black tiger. With a big hand, a group of village guards immediately came forward to control all the people in the gambling house, and immediately sent a team of village guards to rush upstairs to rescue the woman.


    Soon, a bruised and dying woman was rescued. Seeing her miserable appearance, the viewer was moved.


    Han Zheng took a deep breath in his airway: "send him to hospital for treatment, then collect evidence, and all the people involved were escorted to Chang''an County Yamen!"


    "Good Mojia village."


    "Han Fuzi is ruthless and selfless!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There was a sudden burst of applause from the crowd. The black tiger opened a gambling house. It looked like a ferocious villain. How can he not be timid when doing business with such people? Moreover, industries such as brothel gambling house often do great harm to people, and how can they win the hearts of the people? The procuress forced good people into prostitution. It was gratifying to have this retribution.


    What''s more valuable is that Mojia village does not compromise at all despite the coercion and inducement of the two people. How can we not convince everyone.


    When Han Zheng heard the speech, he solemnly said to the crowd, "in Mojia village, the national law is the biggest, fair and just! As long as you abide by the law and discipline, I promise no one will humiliate you. Whoever violates the national law, I will not tolerate it."


    "Fair and just!"


    Seeing this scene, Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking.

 Chapter 695

    Next to the business district of Mojia village, a tall building attracts the attention of people coming and going. This is the location of the village guards of Mojia village. There are nearly 200 village guards in Mojia village, who are responsible for protecting the safety of Mojia village and maintaining the order of Mojia village.


    However, next to the village guard, an insignificant building seems a little humble and shabby. However, this is a place that can not be ignored by everyone in Mojia village. This is Han Fuzi''s office, the court!


    "The court!"


    Li Shimin got out of the carriage, looked at these two words and couldn''t help reading them.


    "Mojia village has made a lot of money! Let Han Fuzi escort it!" Li Shimin has something to eat. I think he went to invite Han Zheng himself. Instead, Han Zheng abandoned senior officials of the Korean hall and went to Mojia village to revive the Legalists.


    "That''s the honor of Mojia village!" Merton thought deeply.


    He hasn''t been in Mojia village for a long time, but there is such a good atmosphere in Mojia village. Han Zheng has made great contributions, and Han Zheng has a lot of peaches and plums all over the world. Students from the Imperial College are all over the Korean hall. Even dignitaries don''t want to easily provoke him.


    "If your majesty is willing to give the legalist family independent jurisdiction, I am willing to return to the court even if I abandon this old bone." Han Zheng''s voice came from the outside.


    "Now all the county magistrates in the world are fair and honest. One person can do things well. Why should one more person try? In this way, it''s just a waste of people''s fat and cream." Li Shimin frowned. He has read Merton''s article on judicial independence. Although there are many benefits, once judicial independence is implemented, officials must take over the judicial power from the county magistrate, which means that there are at least twice as many officials in the Tang Dynasty, which is a lot of expenses for the court. In addition, the court really does not have so many Legalists to support judicial independence.


    "A Confucian scholar who has read four books and five classics all his life can''t even memorize the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty. How can he solve the case accurately? How can he be fair and just by relying on one person''s will and taking care of human accidents?" Han Zheng retorted.


    What Han Zheng said is the truth. I''m afraid few people can memorize the laws and regulations if they really want to assess the county magistrate of Datang. As for unjust, false and wrong cases, they can be found everywhere. He has severely denounced many cases of malicious misinterpretation of the law in the legal column of ink magazine.


    Li Shimin said with a wry smile, "I have removed those county magistrates from their posts. They are supervised by Han Fuzi''s legal column. I believe I will be fair and honest in the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin''s words are just avoiding the important and neglecting the important. Once the judiciary is independent, it is a great restriction on the imperial power. Moreover, as an emperor, he himself relies on the power of life and death to deter the courtiers. If he loses the power of life and death, he needs the Legalists to judge and decide life and death, and the imperial power has no deterrent power. These are unacceptable to Li Shimin.


    Seeing this, Merton quickly turned off the topic and said, "by the way, Mr. Han, I don''t know if the case just now has been found out!"


    Han Zheng sighed when he heard the speech: "it''s not the gambling house pressing for debts. Gamblers sell their wives and women and force them into the brothel to pay their debts. There is no such blood debt in the gambling house brothel in the world!"


    As a legalist who can''t rub sand into his eyes, in his opinion, there are too many violations and injustices in every corner of Datang, but he can''t do anything. Only Mojia village is a pure land, which makes him calm. That''s why he wants to protect Mojia village at all costs. Even in the construction of the rule of law in Mojia village, he has to be more careful than anyone and be fair and just, Only then can there be a fair and just atmosphere in Mojia village.


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly froze. Han Zheng was outspoken and opened the bloody dark side of the Tang Dynasty, which made his face very embarrassed.


    After Li Shimin, there are young Li Zhi and Jinyang. Seeing this, Merton quickly turned off the topic and said, "the Mohist village can be recognized by the people. It all depends on the teacher''s impartiality and strictness. The students haven''t thanked the teacher yet?"


    Han Zheng suddenly showed a trace of favor and said, "Mozi said: give me a peach and return it to Li. The Mojia village has given the Legalists independent jurisdiction, and the Legalists will naturally return a bright future to the Mojia village. By the way, I need to show you the improved village rules according to the cases of the Mojia village in the past year."


    Han Zheng said to let Merton have a look, but in fact he took a lot of copies. The village rules that have been published and printed are obviously not just for Merton to see.


    Merton wisely handed Li Shimin and the princes one copy each. After a general look, he found that the village rules modified by Li Yi were very similar to the public security management regulations of later generations. They were all trivial and cumbersome. They were places that could not be taken into account by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but they were related to the daily life of the people.


    Merton looked through it roughly and said, "generally, the students have no opinions. They can first take it to the villagers'' assembly for approval. After a trial period of time, if there is no problem, it can be implemented."


    Han Zheng nodded with satisfaction and was extremely satisfied with Merton''s strong support for the Legalists.


    "Why did you give it to the villagers'' assembly for approval? In my opinion, the village rules are reasonable and the best choice to govern the village. Just give orders directly!" Li Chengqian asked puzzled. The imperial court has always made laws and decrees by the imperial court. Where is the reason for folk decisions.


    Merton patiently explained: "The purpose of Mohist village rules is to manage Mohist village. After the villagers agree to the village rules, they will punish the villagers who violate the village rules. They will no longer have complaints and facilitate the implementation of the village rules. As for the trial period of time, according to Mohist, nothing in the world is perfect. Time passes and measures are taken according to local conditions. They will be surprised and try After a period of travel, if no problems are found, everyone will be happy. If problems are found, they will be corrected in time, and it is not too late to make up for them. "


    "What if we find the problem in the future?" Li Chengqian asked.


    Merton said without hesitation: "Mr. Han will be specially responsible for revising the village regulations. When there are regulations that need to be changed, he will review the situation and revise them again and submit them to the villagers'' assembly for discussion."


    "Isn''t that changing orders every day?" Li Chengqian disagreed. Changing government orders often is the biggest taboo for politicians. This is the truth of his years of royal education, and naturally he won''t be easily persuaded by Merton.


    "Most of the village rules are revised once a year. Most of them just supplement the imperfect village rules or modify the inappropriate laws and regulations. If the trees are pruned in general, they will only thrive, which is beneficial and harmless!" Merton insisted that the Mohist School''s adherence to the rules eventually declined and almost disappeared. Now, if we learn from the lessons, we will not repeat the mistakes.


    The two argued with each other. On the one hand, they advocated their own views. On the other hand, they also told Li Shimin. If the court argued, it would be general.


    One is to strive for stability, the other is to be aggressive, and no one can convince anyone.


    Li Shimin nodded irrefutably. Li Chengqian was right in striving for stability. Nowadays, Datang is a vast country, which moves the whole body at once. Naturally, stability is the main focus, while Mojia village is just a village, with flexible structure, timely adjustment and positive progress. Naturally, there is nothing wrong.


    When Han Zheng saw Li Shimin and his party leave the court, he couldn''t help regretting that Li Shimin hasn''t adopted his suggestion.


    However, this time he was not disappointed. With the support of Merton, he took the Mojia village as the blueprint of legalism. He wanted to let the world see a different Legalism and a world that people yearn for.


    "Rule of law village!"


    "Abide by the law, understand the law and use it!"


    "It''s difficult to find the village guard!"


    Li Shimin looked at the streets of Mojia village. There were such slogans promoting the rule of law along the streets. He shook his head and said with a smile: "in my opinion, it won''t be long before Mojia village will be renamed Fajia village!"


    Merton said with a smile: "Mojia village acts in accordance with the national law and village rules. Everyone can even predict each other''s behavior. As long as the other party does not violate the Mojia village rules and national laws, there is no need to worry about being bullied and unfair, while Mojia village will gradually grow. Of course, the Legalists are extremely stubborn and rigid, and will only implement the village rules, so the boy specially uses the villagers'' assembly to modify the village Regulations to make up for this defect. "


    "In my opinion, it''s your boy to save trouble!" Li Shimin glanced at Merton. The boy left the Mojia village for a year, and the Mojia village was not chaotic, but more popular. It''s incredible to think about it.


    Merton nodded without guilt and said, "this is the greatest advantage of legalism. The main energy of today''s Mojia village is to study ink technology, and Legalism creates a stable environment for Mojia village. Abandoning external interference is the most correct choice for Mojia village."


    Li Shimin thought carefully and nodded involuntarily. Now Mohism and Legalism can get what they need. Mohism needs the escort of legalism. Legalism needs to verify legalism ideas in Mohism village. Today''s prosperity of Mohism village is the best proof of the cooperation between Mohism and Legalism. At least for now, the cooperation between the two countries is extremely successful.


    Even the one-sided Li Chengqian could not help nodding thoughtfully.


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. His main purpose today is to show Li Shimin the Mohist village, not the king and Minister playing the right, so he had to guide the topic on the Mohist technology.


    "The front is the R & D area of Mojia village, where all ink technology in Mojia village is transformed from imagination into reality. Finally, it is manufactured on a large scale in the industrial zone and sold to all parts of Datang through brick roads for the benefit of the people." Merton solemnly pointed to a fortress like R & D area.


    "R & D area!" Li Shimin''s eyes lit up. This is the core of Mojia village. Even he has heard of it.


    Merton said: "just today, Weichen wants to assess the industry of Mojia village. I believe that the R & D area must have prepared a lot of good things. Please take a step."


    "Then I''ll be an eye opener!" Li Shimin laughed, and Li Tai also showed an excited look. Since he developed ink technology to verify the formation of rain, he has become more and more interested in ink technology.


    "Welcome, young master!" at the door of the R & D area, Lao Zhang, who had been waiting for him, hurried up.


    "This is the treasure of our Mojia village. Uncle Zhang is the most skilled craftsman in our Mojia village. He made your iron birch Trojan horse car." Merton said.


    "Craftsman Zhang is a good craftsman!"


    Li Shimin praised the hard iron birch, which has left the craftsmen of the imperial vehicle supervisor helpless, and Li Shimin was full of praise for its excellent defense.


    When Lao Zhang heard the speech, he immediately showed a simple and honest smile and said, "thank you for your praise. The four-wheel carriage given to you is the first generation product. Today, Mojia village has developed the second generation of four-wheel carriage. The small one has been prepared for you!"


    "Oh! Then I can''t wait!" Li Shimin immediately showed an interested expression.


    "Please!" Uncle Zhang extended his hand and invited Li Shimin and his party to enter the R & D area.


    As soon as I entered, I saw an exquisite four-wheel carriage in the center. Not only the workmanship was meticulous, but also the shape was very streamlined and amazing. People couldn''t put it down at first glance.


    "Sure enough, it''s still an iron birch!" Li Shimin looked at its smooth lines and familiar texture.


    As an emperor, no matter what kind of carriage he is, of course, he should attach importance to safety. Now iron birch has been called his royal material for making cars. He can''t put it down because of its ability to defend against swords. What''s more, this iron birch four-wheel carriage is carved with all kinds of flower patterns. Obviously, the carving technology of Mojia village has made great progress, Even iron birch can be carved.


    Merton came forward and said, "this is the sample of the second generation carriage in Mojia village. It uses the latest rollers and springs to make the shock absorber, which is more labor-saving and stable."


    Merton took a large car spring from Uncle Zhang and showed it to the public. The shock absorber used by the first generation of four-wheel carriages is the simplest arc-shaped iron sheet. It uses the principle of iron sheet tension for shock absorption. Although it has shock absorption effect, the shock absorption effect is not good, and it has long been thoroughly studied by other carriages. Imitations are everywhere, and the spring production technology, Now it is a major advantage of Mojia village. The good shock absorption effect immediately widens the advantages of Mojia village and other workshops.


    "Spring!" Li Shimin nodded when he learned the principle of spring.


    "The second generation of four wheeled carriages is more suitable for long-distance travel than the first generation of four wheeled carriages. Not only is it easy to drive, but also the passengers are also very comfortable and free from bumps." Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin could not help but brighten his eyes. He was not a person who had stayed in the palace for a long time. Now brick roads are popular. With this carriage, his inspection range will certainly be expanded several times. Even if the three vertical and five horizontal plans of the brick road are all laid in the future, it won''t take him long to take a four-wheel carriage to inspect the world all the way.


    In his heart, he never thought of the idea of touring the world like the Sui Yangdi, but due to his reputation, he has always pressed it at the bottom of his heart. Now the prevalence of brick road laying and four-wheel carriage makes this idea stronger and stronger.


    "However, when we are driving on the flat road, how can we bury our heads all the way and miss the scenery along the way." Merton proudly lifted the red cloth covered on the window of the carriage, and was surprised to find that the original window was inlaid with a piece of crystal clear glass, through which we could clearly see the exquisite interior of the carriage.


    "Such a big piece of glass!" Li Tai exclaimed.


    Mojia village used to throw out small pieces of glass products such as glasses or luminous cups. The biggest one is just a wine bottle to solve thousands of worries. There has never been such a large and flat glass.


    Merton said proudly: "It''s too cold in winter, so it''s necessary to seal the windows when taking a four-wheel carriage. There are even several fires caused by heating in the car. However, the second generation of four-wheel carriage can clearly look at the scenery along the way through the glass from the car, and the car is as warm as ever. Moreover, the light outside the window can shine through the glass, so people can read books and newspapers in the car Not affected. "


    "Brother Mo really has a wonderful idea. He even combined glass with carriage. No wonder brother Mo was not in a hurry when the Mojia village was in crisis. He thought he had a plan!" Li Tai said with praise. Once the second generation carriage of Mojia village came out, which workshop could compete with the Mojia village that mastered the secret skills of glass alone.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Your Highness the king of Wei thinks highly of Wei Chen. This is not what I thought. The children of the Mohist family brainstormed the way to break the situation."


    This time, Merton was not modest. At the beginning of the crisis in the Mojia village, he directly put pressure on the Mojia village. The person in charge was directly removed from his post when the workshop was in recession. This was the result of today. When Merton learned that, he was also surprised. He didn''t expect that the children of the Mojia village would create the prototype of cars in future generations.


    Almost everyone believes that once the second generation of four wheeled carriage is launched, it will certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty, and Mojia village will certainly be more prosperous.

 Chapter 696

    It can be said impolitely that in Mojia village, the four-wheel carriage business is the main business of Mojia village. As long as the four-wheel carriage business does not fall down, the status of Mojia village will be as stable as Mount Tai. Merton first showed Li Shimin the second generation of four wheeled carriage. The most important purpose was to prove the strength of the Mohist village to Li Shimin.


    It proves that the Mohist school is still developing, not going downhill, and living up to the reputation of the first village in the world.


    Li Shimin naturally didn''t want the first village in the world to be beaten so quickly. Seeing the potential of Mojia village, he nodded with satisfaction.


    Merton continued: "the second generation of four-wheel carriage has added glass, but it is not perfect in the boy''s view. At the moment, the glass is still very brittle and will break if touched. In the boy''s vision, it will be more perfect if the glass can become as strong as steel, inlay it on the four-wheel carriage, and inlay it on the door."


    When Uncle Zhang heard the speech, he immediately got the treasure and wrote it down. He smiled happily and said, "don''t worry, young master. My old Zhang will try to finish the young master''s order as soon as possible."


    Li Tai carefully imagined Merton''s idea, which surprised him: "now I finally believe that this carriage is not your hand."


    Li Shimin also couldn''t help looking at Merton in surprise, and then said with a straight face, "if it weren''t for the credit of Master Zhang, how could he think of these? It''s just icing on the cake. He''s smart!"


    Merton immediately looked embarrassed and looked very different. Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang couldn''t help laughing.


    "What about the pot workshop?" Merton quickly changed the topic. I''m afraid the pot workshop is the most serious loss among the major workshops in Mojia village. After all, there are too many iron making in the whole Tang Dynasty, and the pot is the easiest to imitate. Once a large number of low-cost iron pots appear in the market, the pot sales in Mojia village immediately lag and a large backlog.


    Lao Zhang changed his face and said, "if you go back to the young master, although the quality of Mohist pots is superior, they still can''t compare with the low-cost pots of other workshops."


    Merton couldn''t help sighing. He naturally knew the plight of the pot workshop, otherwise he wouldn''t give priority to asking the pot workshop.


    "However, the pot workshop did the opposite and made cheaper pot tools!" Lao Zhang said with a gnash of teeth.


    "Cheaper cooking utensils!" Morton frowned and said, "is it shoddy? The sign of Mojia village can''t be smashed!"


    Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "whether it is good or bad, Lao Zhang is not sure. The young master will know at a glance."


    Led by Lao Zhang tou, the people came to a warehouse in the East.


    "Tie ping! The young master is coming!" with the call of Lao Zhang''s head, a thin man appeared in front of the crowd.


    Tieping is Merton''s escort and Tieping''s brother. Although he was born to the same mother, Tieping is quite opposite to tall Tieping. He is thin and small. He doesn''t know any martial arts and makes a living by forging iron.


    "Tie ping! I heard you made a cheaper pot!" Merton said again.


    When Tieping heard this, he said proudly: "don''t worry, young master. Although the small pots are cheap, they don''t cut corners."


    "Since we haven''t cut corners, why is it so cheap!" Li Shimin asked.


    Although Tieping didn''t know Li Shimin, he knew that he was either rich or expensive by looking at his clothes, not to mention the young master''s personal escort. He could let the young master accompany him last time. However, Han Tiemian didn''t dare to neglect at present. He hurriedly replied: "if you return to your people, that''s because villains can make pots and utensils that can be made in the past ten days in one day."


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin suddenly exclaimed, looking at the thin tie Ping with disbelief on his face.


    In the suspicious eyes of the people, they directly took out a circular iron plate and put it on an inverted semicircular mold in a grinding plate general machinery. Under the command of Tieping, three cows made efforts to rotate the grinding plate at the same time. They were surprised to find that.


    The original round iron plate was rotating rapidly and was soon ground into an iron pot by a machine similar to a grinding plate.


    "That''s it?"


    Li Shimin was surprised that even if he didn''t eat human fireworks, he knew that the iron pot was cast by mold and needed to be knocked many times to complete, but the iron pot made by tie Ping didn''t have this process at all.


    "Yes! It''s said that only the iron pot made has toughness and durability!" Li Tai said in surprise.


    Tieping explained: "Hui GUI, this round iron plate itself is the high-quality iron material of Mojia village. It was stamped in the steel furnace first. It is extremely strong. The durability of the forged iron pot is no worse than that of the forged iron pot!"


    "Really?" Li Shimin still didn''t believe.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "indeed, the thickness of the iron pot pressed by this method is uniform, which is not available for forging iron pot. What''s more valuable is that this method is extremely convenient and greatly shortens the manpower."


    Tie Ping nodded solemnly: "except for labor, livestock and iron materials, the cost of casting an iron pot is probably only about half that of forging an iron pot, and the speed is several times faster."


    Li Shimin wondered, "this is a good thing! The quality of the iron pot is not bad, the price is cheap, and the people benefit a lot. How can master Zhang frown?"


    Lao Zhang said with a wry smile, "once this method comes out, the pot making skill handed down by our ancestors will gradually be lost."


    He still couldn''t accept an iron pot without forging. In his opinion, the pressed pot had lost the craftsman''s ingenuity.


    Merton understood Lao Zhang very much. An old man who had been using traditional crafts all his life suddenly saw that he had always adhered to the outdated state of mind. He couldn''t help comforting him by saying: "Zhang Shuke once thought that how many people in the world are still cooking in pottery pots. They need such a cheap iron pot, and the expensive and cumbersome manual forging pot can make the people all over the world use good and cheap things and benefit the world. That is the purpose of Mohism."


    Lao Zhang''s head couldn''t help but be stunned. After thinking for a long time, he sighed dejectedly: "what the young master said is very true. It''s my appearance."


    Merton then focused on tie Ping. If Lao Zhang''s head represents the peak of traditional technology, and tie Ping is the bud of Mohist mechanical technology, he solemnly asked, "tie Ping, have you ever been to night school!"


    Tie Ping quickly replied, "I haven''t missed a festival!"


    Merton nodded and said, "from now on, you will be in charge of the pot workshop! But it''s not making pot tools!"


    "What''s that made?" tie PingTon looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton showed an inexplicable smile and said, "the machinery responsible for producing iron pots! When the cheap iron pots of the Mohist School spread, I believe there will be many workshops attracted by the name. The Mohist village only needs to sell pot making machinery."


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up and he couldn''t help admiring Merton. Once the pot making machinery spread, the people of the Tang Dynasty will be able to use cheap iron pots in the shortest time and benefit the world with the power of one village. How can such officials not be appreciated by Li Shimin?


    "What about the blacksmith in the pot workshop?" tie Ping asked.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "all build machines. As long as you can use this method instead of forging, make corresponding machines for me."


    "Yes, young master!" tie Ping said positively.


    Merton looked at the simple pressure cooker machinery in front of him, and couldn''t help feeling surging. Mojia village finally broke through the pure manual technology. The era of manual mechanical technology has begun, and Tieping is the hope of the future of Mojia village.

 Chapter 697

    "Congratulations, brother Mo, there are successors in Mojia village!"


    Turning to walk out of the factory building, Li Tai immediately said congratulations.


    Almost everyone can only see that when Merton sees the surprise of machinery.


    Merton laughed and said, "it''s just a simple machine. How much he can achieve in the future depends on his nature."


    Merton did not hide it and directly admitted that tie Ping would be the person to replace Lao Zhang''s head in the future if there were no accidents.


    "Isn''t it just making a pot? What''s the big deal?" Li Zhi said unconvinced.


    Merton found that after entering the R & D area, Li Tai and Li Chengqian could understand, while Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang were a little depressed.


    "Don''t be anxious, your highness king of Jin. I believe your highness king of Jin must be very interested." Merton said.


    "Really?" Li Zhi was slightly interested.


    Led by Merton, the party turned a corner and suddenly a dazzling light was reflected.


    "Why is it so dazzling!" Princess Jinyang quickly covered her eyes and exclaimed.


    However, he did not find that the people with wide eyes had already stared at the scene in front of him!


    "Princess Jinyang, you can open your eyes. I believe you must like it here!" Merton said softly.


    Jinyang Princess put down her little hand in doubt and opened her mouth in surprise when she saw the scene in front of her.


    In front of them, a two room glass greenhouse appeared. The greenhouse was full of green vegetable gardens, and the reflection just now was the dazzling light reflected from the glass outside the greenhouse.


    "This is a cucumber! In winter and December, there will be cucumbers in Mojia village?" Li Shimin couldn''t believe looking at the slender cucumbers hanging on the green vines in front of him.


    "This is leek!"


    "This is beans!"


    Vegetables that are common in summer even appear in the cold winter and the last month, and in the most rigorous place in Mojia village.


    "If the big farmer were here, he would be ecstatic!" Li Shimin murmured to himself.


    "How did Mohism do it?" Li Chengqian asked.


    Looking at the green in the greenhouse through the transparent glass, they couldn''t help but wonder. Spinach came from Persia, and the green plants in Mojia village were non deciduous trees in the south. They could understand it. However, the cucumbers, beans and leeks in front of them were all summer things, and there was absolutely no reason to appear in winter. At the moment, all these strange things appeared in front of them.


    Merton sold a pass, stretched out his hand and invited, "your majesty and your Highnesses, you can suddenly understand it when you enter it."


    "I''m going, I''m going in!" Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi scrambled. Li Tai and Li Chengqian naturally looked curious.


    Merton opened the door of the greenhouse, and Li Shimin went in. He immediately felt a burst of heat coming to his face, and there was a vague guess in his heart. Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang could not wait to see it in the greenhouse, just like a curious baby.


    "Is it the temperature?" Li Chengqian''s eyes lit up.


    Li Tai shook his head and said, "in my opinion, the greatest credit should be the transparent glass!"


    As far as Li Tai could see, many small water droplets condensed on the top glass of the greenhouse, which was very similar to his experiment to verify the clouds.


    Merton nodded and said, "Your Highness, you are both right. One is the temperature and the other is the light. Last year, the boy found that if the green plants were placed in a warm heating room, he could spend the cold winter, but they almost stopped growing because of the lack of sunshine.


    So the boy had a whim. If I could gather the temperature and sunshine in one place at the same time in winter, would it make the seeds germinate and grow? "


    People couldn''t help looking at the sunlight shining in from the transparent glass in front of them. Merton definitely nodded and said, "all these ideas could only be empty until the transparent glass appeared, which made the boy''s idea come true."


    Li Shimin nodded. The transparent glass can not only shine in the sun, but also block the cold outside. In this greenhouse, the temperature is appropriate, the sun is sufficient, and all the factors for seed germination and growth are available, so there is a grand occasion at present.


    Merton reached out and planted a few cucumbers. Pound, who had been following him, was ready to bring out a basin of clean water. After carefully washing it, Merton handed it to Li Shimin and others


    "Click!"


    Li Shimin took a bite of the cucumber and immediately the fresh cucumber rushed through the taste buds. Li Chengqian and Li Tai ate steadily, while Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang had already gobbled up.


    It''s a great enjoyment to have fresh melons and fruits in the cold winter.


    Li Tai ate a whole cucumber and said, "I thought it would be fun to eat spinach in the cold winter, but who would have thought that brother Mo still has this skill and can grow vegetables in winter. In the future, we will be blessed in winter."


    Li Shimin looked at the glass greenhouse in front of him and sneered: "do you think the cucumber you eat is cheap? With so many large pieces of glass alone, I''m afraid the greenhouse costs a lot!


    Li Tai was immediately delayed. The price of glass in Chang''an city can refer to glasses to reconcile thousands of worries, but the glass used to set up this greenhouse is worth at least several hundred yuan. In summer, you can buy a few kilograms of cucumbers for a penny. Now, I''m afraid some people are scrambling to sell these vegetables in Chang''an city.


    Thinking of this, Li Tai couldn''t help but aftertaste the delicious food just now. In this way, he had eaten at least dozens of Wen just now. On one side, Li Chengqian was also startled. He quickly slipped the unfinished cucumber into Li Zhi''s mouth without hesitation, munched a few times and swallowed it.


    Merton was shy and said with a smile: "they are all made by themselves in Mojia village. They don''t cost money. Moreover, the secret technology of glass will be improved in the future, and the price of glass will be greatly reduced. At that time, it is not impossible for ordinary people to eat off-season vegetables."


    "Out of season vegetables!" the people nodded when they heard Merton''s name,


    "Ice making in summer and sprouting in winter! Seizing the sky sometimes benefits people. The Mohist ink technology is really unique!" Li Chengqian sighed.


    It was almost impossible to make ice in summer and fresh vegetables in winter. But now it has been realized one by one. It is not a miracle, but ordinary people can do it. The reason for all this is the emergence of Mohism.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and looked at Li Zhi and Jinyang chasing in the greenhouse. Today''s trip to Mohism really surprised him too much.


    "Your Highness has flattered you. The Mojia village has nothing to entertain your majesty and several Highnesses. If you don''t pick some vegetables and cook some home-made dishes at noon, please forgive me for the poor reception!" Merton said, raising his sleeves repeatedly and coming down to pick cucumbers and beans in person.


    "We help too!" Lizhi and Jinyang Princess unwilling to fall behind came forward to help pick vegetables.


    Pound hurriedly tried to stop them, but Li Shimin waved to stop them. He looked at the excited Princess Jinyang with a spoiled face.


    "Father emperor, you help me pick this big cucumber! You can''t reach it!" Princess Jinyang took Li Shimin and pointed to a cucumber hanging high.


    "OK!" Li Shimin spoiled and helped to plant the cucumber. Seeing this, Li Chengqian and Li Tai also helped one after another, and soon enjoyed it.


    Merton couldn''t help but show a knowing smile. The mode of farmhouse fun in later generations, but the best choice for family gatherings, even the royal family.


    Soon, the party was full of harvest.


    "Father, you haven''t finished picking your son yet?" Jinyang princess looked at the green glass greenhouse with regret.


    "Yes, I can''t eat any more. It''s a waste." Li Shimin said spoiled.


    "All right!" Princess Jinyang reluctantly walked out of the greenhouse.


    Seeing this, Merton quickly comforted: "Princess Jinyang, don''t worry, these greenhouse vegetables will be kept for you. When you want to eat, let someone send them to you!


    "Great, thank you brother-in-law!" Princess Jinyang blurted out.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he suddenly turned black and looked at Merton badly, but he didn''t say anything. Obviously, his impression of Merton has changed a lot


    Merton was overjoyed and took advantage of the heat to hit the railway: "Yuzi is really good. After the new year, I''ll ask Mojia village to build more flat glass and build a greenhouse for you in the palace, so that you can plant vegetables or cultivate some flowers yourself. It''s not impossible for flowers to bloom all over the garden in winter."


    "Winter flowers fill the garden!" the princess of Jinyang suddenly looked with joy and looked forward to Li Shimin''s charming voice,


    "Really? Father, do children want such a greenhouse?"


    Li Shimin looked at nature and said without hesitation, "of course!"


    "The law of greenhouse can blossom and bear fruit in four seasons. Xunzi said that man can conquer heaven. I was skeptical before. After today''s trip, I believe it is not impossible!" Li Tai sighed.


    Merton Lang said: "from the perspective of Weichen, there are still too many unknown things in the world. Study and crack them and make use of them to benefit people. The future world will certainly be more wonderful!"


    Li Shimin and Li Chengqian could not help nodding. When the Mohist school did not appear, the world had not changed for almost a thousand years. However, only two years after the Mohist school came out, the face of the Tang Dynasty could be changed at a visible speed. Artificial fish farming, artificial incubation technology, ice making in summer, warm room and greenhouse, Mohist ink technology almost reached the limit of human development.


    Even Li Shimin can imagine that before long, the idea of greening and transportation in Mojia village will spread all over the north and south of the river, and the face of the whole world will change. These originally insignificant things in the eyes of everyone, but in the hands of Mojia, amazing power will erupt.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help taking a deep breath. This trip to Mohism has made him look forward to it more and more.

 Chapter 698

    Out of the R & D area, several people boarded the sightseeing carriage and immediately went to the industrial area.


    "This is the granary of Mojia village. Now, Mojia village is expanding rapidly and has occupied a lot of good farmland. In the future, the grain output of Mojia village will continue to decrease. For the stability of Mojia village, these granaries will store enough grain for Mojia village for at least three years. Even if it is the crisis of Mojia village, the boy has no idea about these grains." Merton solemnly said.


    This granary is the foundation of the stability of Mojia village. He specially introduced it to Li Shimin today to let Li Shimin see the layout of Mojia village.


    "It''s really not a fluke to prepare for a rainy day in Mojia village!" Li Shimin nodded. He controlled the whole Tang Dynasty and naturally knew the importance of food. If Shandong flood had not mobilized a large amount of food for disaster relief, I''m afraid it would have changed the people.


    Moreover, there are so many grain reserves in Mojia village. Even if it fails in the crisis of Mojia village, Mojia village will not be chaotic, and there may not be no chance of turning over in the future.


    With the carriage moving forward, huge workshops came into view. In the Tang Dynasty, almost all workshops are homework, and the scale is very small. Even most of the workshops on both sides of the Southwest Industrial Zone and the brick road in the south of the city are the same. The larger ones are just hiring some people.


    However, the workshop in Mojia village covers a huge area. Compared with ordinary family workshops, it is simply a behemoth, and there are more than one such workshop.


    "How many people work in such a big workshop!" Li Tai smacked his tongue.


    Merton proudly said: "now there are 5000 villagers in Mojia village, 10000 foreign craftsmen in the industrial area, and 2000 vendors and clerks in the commercial area. These are the permanent residents of Mojia village, not including the continuous business trips in Mojia village. On weekdays, the total population of Mojia village is about 20000."


    "20000 people!"


    Li Shimin raised his eyebrows in surprise. The resident population of a village is almost equivalent to a large county.


    "It''s new year''s Eve, and most of the workers in major workshops have returned home. Ordinary industrial areas must be very busy," Morton said with regret.


    Li Shimin looked at the huge workshops and couldn''t help sighing that the development of Mojia village was no longer described as fast, but simply a miracle.


    The sightseeing carriage went all the way and soon left the workshops behind. There were pieces of farmland in front. Unknowingly, they had driven out of the industrial zone.


    "Ah! We''re out of Mojia village. Why don''t we have a gate!" Li Tai asked curiously.


    Li Shimin was shocked and suddenly remembered his experience along the way. The Mojia village has not only no city gate, nor even a city wall, nor a moat. This is an incredible thing. You know, even a small county with a population of only a few thousand people in the Tang Dynasty has a city wall, and even some villages have a village gate, a village wall, and even a moat, The gate of the village is closed at night.


    But Mojia village did the opposite. Not only did it have no village gate, but also built roads in all directions. You can enter Mojia village almost from that direction.


    Merton said proudly, "the Mojia village is located at the foot of the emperor. If you dare to offend, you don''t have to worry about the safety of the village. Moreover, the construction of the city wall costs a lot. The grass-roots creation of the Mojia village is in the ascendant. It''s better to build more brick houses for the villagers than put the limited money on the construction of the useless city wall."


    "Brother Mo has a good opinion!" Li Tai said with admiration. How many people can love the villagers like Morton.


    Merton said with a smile, "although the city wall is good, it makes people safe and assured, it will also shackle the development of a city. In the planning of Mojia village, it is not a square square city like Chang''an City, but a circle. Taking the business district as the center, we build a circle of ring roads. Now we walk the brick road is the second ring road of Mojia village."


    "Ring road!" Li Shimin and others looked at the obviously curved road ahead and couldn''t help looking at each other. Such urban ideas are extremely rare.


    "Today''s Mojia village is expanding rapidly. In less than five years, all the land within the second ring road will be occupied. At that time, the third ring brick road will be built. If the city wall is built, can it be stripped and expanded? Therefore, the future of Mojia village will always be a city without city walls," Merton said generously.


    "A city without walls!"


    Li Shimin and Li Chengqian were shocked and couldn''t help thinking. Once the city of Datang was built, it means that the area has been fixed. Even some visionary designers reserved space for development in advance, but it will run out one day. However, a city without walls has unlimited development possibilities. It can be seen how much Merton expects the Mojia village!


    Of course, there is another most important reason, but the public tacitly didn''t say it. That is, the unique skill that Mohism became famous in history is to stick to it. Once it has a city, there are a large number of Mohist children among them, and their defensive power must be doubled.


    I''m afraid no one can ignore a fortress with amazing defense on the edge of Chang''an city. If Mojia village doesn''t build a city wall, it is actually abandoning its martial arts and expressing its loyalty to the court. After all, no one will refuse a city pool that has no threat and allows an endless stream of court halls to contribute huge taxes.


    "Everyone knows that Mohism is open to change, but I don''t know that brother Mo has such a mind!" Li Chengqian can''t help but be impressed by Merton''s grand plan.


    An infinitely expanding city has a beautiful environment and is suitable for living. The Mojia village with ink technology has unlimited business opportunities. The future of such a city will be unlimited.


    "Then I''ll wait and see!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    Mojia village is right under his nose. He wants to see how far Mojia village can grow.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" the Mohist village was overjoyed. Then he looked up at the sun above his head and said, "master fish returned from Luoyang today. I heard that your majesty has been waiting for a banquet in the village residence. Please move to the Mohist residence."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but move when he heard the speech. Since the fish master opened up the market in Luoyang City, he has never tasted the fish master''s craft again. He not only smiled a little and said, "then we can have a blessing today."


    Li Chengqian can''t help but show a trace of memory. At the beginning, he, Merton and Qin Huaiyu didn''t taste the craftsmanship of fish master. Now when I think back, it''s a good memory.


    The sightseeing carriage did not turn around, but continued to move forward, along the ring road, and soon arrived at the residential area. In the center of the residential area is Merton''s residence in Mojia village.


    "This is the new Mohist village!" Li Shimin brightened his eyes as he looked at the rows of brand-new brick houses in the residential area.


    Compared with the dilapidated and messy of ordinary villages, it is two worlds compared with Mojia village. Brick roads are paved at the door of each household in the residential area, which is clean and tidy. There is no dirty and messy sewage flow, and there are no yellow skinned poor people.


    A group of children dressed in clean and tidy clothes, with healthy complexion, chased and made trouble at the door. The chimneys of each family were emitting wisps of cooking smoke, a strong smell of rice came to their faces, and a strong smell of life came from the pavement.


    "This is the residential area of Mojia village, also known as Mojia new village. All the original villagers live in the village." Merton pointed to the new house and introduced it to Li Shimin.


    "It''s all brick houses!" Li Tai was surprised when he looked at the rows of houses that had just been built.


    Merton nodded and said, "in order to prevent fire, all the shops in Mojia village, except the shops along the street, should use brick and tile structures."


    Although it costs a little more, Merton wants to do it once and for all. He is unwilling to leave a fire hazard for Mojia village. Even the shops on both sides of the street will have separated fire belts every other section to prevent the tragedy of a fire burning a street.


    "It''s really a Shanghu family!" Li Shimin nodded in praise.


    Hundreds of neat brick and tile houses are located in a staggered manner, which gives people a more convincing shock than any words. Most ordinary villages are low thatched houses, and only landlords and upper families can afford brick and tile houses, while Mojia village is just like every ordinary villager. Such an exquisite house is not inferior to the square city of Chang''an city.


    "In one more year at most, the expansion of Mojia new village will be completed, and all the villagers will move into Mojia new village." Merton pointed to the few remaining blank houses.


    "They are all benevolent and righteous people. Brother Mo treats the villagers well, and the villagers do their best to repay the kindness!" Li Chengqian also praised. Merton treats the villagers very well. However, these villagers know how to repay the kindness. When Mojia village is in danger, they generously save the village. How can such a loving and righteous villager not be envied.


    "That''s the boy''s luck!" Morton said proudly.


    Li Shimin sighed that there are so many aristocratic family landlords in the world. The people controlled by any one are ten times more than those in Mojia village, and these aristocratic families only absorb the wealth of the people to worship themselves, but they never thought of feeding the people back, so that the aristocratic family that has passed on for thousands of years is just a prosperous family, while the people they depend on are still poor and poor.


    However, Merton has created a new model of governing the people. Common prosperity is like a high-rise building. The stronger the foundation, the higher it can be built. The people of Mojia village are the foundation of this high-rise building. Only the richer the villagers are, the more prosperous the Mojia village can be.


    "Hello, young master!"


    "Hello, young master!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Teenagers looked at Merton on the sightseeing carriage and greeted him with respect. Their eyes were fanatical, as if they saw an idol.


    Merton responded to the villagers one by one. The carriage went smoothly all the way and soon came to the Mohist village and Mohist house.


    Although Merton didn''t come back all year round, the whole ink house was often taken care of. Everything was in order and clean. When they got off the carriage, they found that master fish had been waiting there.

 Chapter 699

    "Young master, your majesty, please wait a moment. The food is ready!" said the fish master respectfully.


    Merton hurriedly stopped and said, "Uncle fish, wait a minute! I''m afraid we''ll have to add a few dishes to today''s meal!"


    The fish master looked at Merton with a puzzled smile. Merton took out three small baskets from the sightseeing carriage and handed them to the fish master and said, "I don''t know what uncle fish thinks of the three dishes?"


    "Is this?" the fish master was shocked and couldn''t believe looking at the cucumbers, beans and leeks in front of him! "How is this possible?" he exclaimed with an incredible look on his face


    For a chef, this kind of off-season vegetables is just like the rare smell in the world. How can he not be shocked? He is in Luoyang all year round and rarely comes back. Moreover, the R & D area is highly confidential. Naturally, he doesn''t know that off-season vegetables are cultivated in the glass greenhouse.


    Li Shimin and others couldn''t help laughing when they saw master fish''s expression. Just now, when they first saw out of season vegetables, they couldn''t help feeling the same when they saw master fish''s response.


    Merton said the principle of the glass greenhouse again, and the fish master suddenly realized it. With a look of ecstasy, he said, "from this ink technology, the position of the fish champion building must be unshakable."


    With the continuous expansion of cooking technology, the advantages of yuzhuangyuan building are becoming smaller and smaller. Now with off-season vegetables, yuzhuangyuan building has a new treasure of town stores.


    After Master Yu was overjoyed, he remembered his business. He quickly apologized to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me. I''m a little rude."


    Li Shimin disagreed and said, "good ingredients are like a long rain for chefs. It is inevitable to lose your manners. It is chefs such as fish chefs that are the luck of our gluttonous guests."


    "Your Majesty, wait a minute. I''ll cook the delicious food right away." the fish master bowed and left immediately.


    "Your majesty!" Merton bowed and invited.


    Li Shimin took the lead in stepping into the ink house. A round table had already been placed in the living room, and everyone sat down one after another.


    "Coming!"


    Soon, with the cheers of the fish master, crisp and delicious cucumbers, popular dry fried beans and fragrant leek eggs were brought up. These dishes, which are very common in summer, are very rare in winter, and people can''t help salivating.


    With the delicious spinach bean tendons already prepared and the signature food of the fish champion building, a table of rich dishes has been prepared.


    In winter, so many green vegetables gather at a table, which can be said to be unprecedented. Even Royal people who are used to eating delicacies can''t help eating them.


    "Wow! It''s delicious!" Li Zhi said with exaggerated exclamation on his face.


    Even the royal family is extremely short of dishes in winter. Although there are spinach and some green vegetables this year, they can be tired of eating every day. How can they stand so many green vegetables now.


    In particular, Li Tai, with a round figure, exaggerated his eating appearance. Soon, the three dishes of green vegetables were almost wiped out.


    "Uncle Yu, one more of these three dishes!" Merton ordered in time. Fortunately, they picked more vegetables today, otherwise they really couldn''t supply them.


    The three courses of green vegetables were served three times, and everyone''s eating appearance was slowly straightened up. One by one, they stroked their round stomachs and drank some tea to eliminate their satiety.


    "Nine brothers eat the most!" Princess Jinyang looked at Li Zhi lying on the chair and smiled.


    Li Zhi immediately refused and said, "where is me? The fourth brother eats more than me!"


    Li Shimin glanced at the baby fat Li Zhi, who couldn''t help frowning and said, "don''t be greedy for sweets, otherwise you''ll be as fat as a green Sparrow!"


    Li Tai smiled bitterly when he heard the speech. He didn''t expect to burn the fire on himself. He looked down at his fat body and said helplessly: "I don''t know why I''m getting fatter and fatter."


    Merton''s heart moved. He couldn''t help thinking of the early death of Li Taiying in later generations. Although there are many doubts and speculation in history, it may not have been caused by obesity. At present, he said in his heart: "the ancestors of Mohism have done relevant experiments. The food in the world can cause obesity most. I''m afraid it takes several meters of noodles in addition to oil."


    "Rice, noodles." Li Tai was stunned. He didn''t think of the reason for eating fat. He even these common foods.


    "Lean meat, vegetables and fruits will be much better. If you can reasonably match your diet, your body may be better. Of course, if you want to really control obesity, you must control your mouth and open your legs! Diet and exercise are indispensable. You can have a good body." Merton solemnly said.


    "Keep your mouth shut and move your legs!"


    As soon as Li Shimin''s eyes lit up, he couldn''t help nodding and saying, "it''s concise and to the point. You should keep it in mind."


    Li Tai immediately drooped his face and hung his head to lose his airway: "my son understands!"


    When Li Zhi saw that Li Tai was eating flat, he couldn''t help laughing and secretly rejoiced.


    "Young slaves are the same!" Li Shimin glared at Li Zhi.


    Li Zhi suddenly felt like an eggplant made of frost, and he was no longer energetic.


    When Merton saw that they disagreed, he said, "being too fat is not only bad for walking, but will affect health and cause a variety of diseases. Doctor sun is an expert."


    Li Tai was suddenly surprised and couldn''t help paying attention.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but look cautious. Although he knew that Li Tai was too fat, he didn''t pay attention. Hearing that it could affect his health, he was not only worried.


    Li Tai took a deep breath in his airway: "I remember that Wang will pay attention to diet and step up weight loss."


    Merton showed a trace of cunning and said, "the so-called weight loss is shouting slogans after eating. It''s better to take action immediately. Opposite the ink house is Mozi square. The so-called hundred steps after dinner and live to 99. It''s better for me to take a walk after dinner and eliminate accumulated food."


    "Ah! But young slaves are full and don''t want to move!" Li Zhi said lazily.


    "There''s a lot of fun in the square," Merton seduced.


    "Fun!"


    Li Zhi couldn''t help jumping out with great excitement.


    "I''m going too!" Princess Jinyang couldn''t wait.


    Seeing this, Li Tai had no choice but to get up and step out.


    In Mozi square, "this is life!"


    Li Shimin has not been so leisurely for a long time since he became king.


    Mozi square is transformed from the old housing area of Mojia village. The scenery is very good. In addition, many green plants have been transplanted this year. Even in winter, it is green. After walking around it, people suddenly feel relaxed and happy.


    "Back to my father, in Chang''an City, there is only Furong garden for the people to play, and it is very inconvenient to be located in the south of Chang''an city. If we can build some squares in the city to let the people have a nap nearby after dinner, this is the policy to benefit the people!" Li Chengqian said.


    "This is also a good policy!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.


    In Chang''an City, the imperial court also controls many high gate courtyards. There are many pavilions and pavilions inside. With a little transformation, it is a good choice for a square.


    Suddenly a burst of cheerful laughter attracted everyone''s ideas. In front of a seesaw, Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi occupied one end and had a good time.


    "It''s a bit interesting!"


    Li Shimin saw this toy for the first time. Seeing Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi so interested, he couldn''t help showing a trace of love.


    Merton explained: "this thing is made according to the lever principle of Mohism. The fulcrum of the seesaw is in the middle. As long as one side is not evenly stressed, it will tilt. Only when the weights of the two sides are equal can it reach balance."


    "This is the power studied by Mohism!" Li Tai gasped after a walk.


    Merton nodded: "Although this is a game work, in the Far West pyramid country, a new scale is made based on this principle. The seesaw is reduced. Two trays are placed at both ends, one tray is put into the weight, and the other tray is put into the weighing object to weigh the weight. It is very time-saving, labor-saving, convenient and fast. It is called the balance. This object is favored by Han Fuzi and uses the balance as a fair tool of Legalists Symbol. "


    "Balance!"


    "Legalists!"


    "A symbol of fairness!"


    When Li Shimin heard the new name, he didn''t think so. When he heard that the balance was the symbol of legalism, his eyes burst into a light.


    "Very image!"


    Li Shimin was thoughtful. Now he suddenly recalled that this pattern was carved in front of the court where Han Fuzi was located. He didn''t expect it to have such significance.


    "When it comes to fairness, I think the villagers'' meeting in Mojia village is extremely fair, and I heard it was held in Mozi square!" Li Chengqian suddenly said.


    "Villagers'' meeting?" Li Shimin felt a move in his heart. He had never heard of the villagers'' meeting in Mojia village. All the villagers managed the village together. However, Mojia village was extremely successful. How could he not be curious.


    "Is this the way of Mohism governing the country?" said Li Tai.


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "this is the policy of governing a small country and few people. It is difficult to wait for a hall of elegance!"


    "A small country with few people! Ink sacrificing wine is so not optimistic about his own Mohist ideas?" Li Shimin asked puzzled. When all schools of thought often talk about their own policies of governing the country, they often talk with confidence, and Merton is probably the only one who denies it.


    Merton explained: "Your Majesty, it is indeed excellent and fair for all the villagers to hold a meeting to jointly make decisions on things in the village. However, it is only suitable for implementation in a very small range. After all, a person''s scope of activities is limited, not to mention the imperial court, it is impossible to implement in a county. After all, it takes at least one day for people to come and go to the county, let alone such a large site I''m afraid I can''t even hear the voice for people to hold a meeting. It''s fair to talk about it. "


    Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding. Merton''s words directly talked about the biggest disadvantage of this law. Not only that, but even the universal suffrage in future generations seems fair, mostly a mere formality.


    "Then why did you choose this method to govern Mojia village?" Li Shimin asked.


    Morton''s face was shy and said, "I''m afraid you only have the ability to govern a village!"


    "Ha ha ha!"


    Li Shimin burst into laughter.


    "The noble MOH family thinks that there is only one village. I''m afraid many officials will be ashamed." Li Shimin said happily.


    Mojia village is just a village. In a short time, the hands of Merton burst into dazzling light. How can it be the only person who can govern the village in a word.


    "Brother Mo is really joking." Li Tai and Li Chengqian said helplessly.


    Merton said in his heart, "just this afternoon, a villagers'' meeting will be held here. May your majesty be willing to attend?"


    "Then I''ll see how a village governs the village." Li Shimin nodded. He came here today to explore the secret of the rise of Mojia village. How can he miss the grand event of Mojia village such as the villagers'' meeting.


    As for whether the villagers'' meeting is held today, it doesn''t matter at all. Since Li Shimin wants to see it, the villagers'' meeting will be held today.

 Chapter 700

    For Mojia village, the villagers'' meeting was held recently, and all materials have been prepared.


    "Dangdang!"


    With the call of summoning, villagers soon gathered in Mozi square.


    When the villagers saw that there were two more positions behind Merton on the podium, they were not surprised. The arrival of dignitaries in Mojia village today had already spread all over the village.


    Li Shimin and Li Chengqian were officially made in these two positions. After all, Li Shimin was the prince and was originally the successor elected by Li Shimin. Li Shimin naturally let Li Chengqian sit in on such a novel way of governance as the Mojia village villagers'' meeting. Although Li Tai was favored, he was not allowed to stay aside to look after Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang.


    Li Shimin and Li Chengqian looked at the backbone of Mojia village on the podium in front of them and couldn''t help nodding. Although the sparrows in Mojia village are small and have five internal organs, they do have a bit of weather.


    "This year, Mojia village has paid 100000 wages, 67000 taxes, and material expenses..." as the first speech of the village head, Li Yi announced the expenditure of the whole village to the public.


    A series of huge figures made Li Shimin thoroughly understand the real potential of Mojia village. The salary alone was 100000-3000 yuan, which was evenly distributed to each person. That was at least six yuan, nearly 500 yuan per month. In Datang, the salary of 500 yuan per month was very little. The income of six yuan was much more than that of farming.


    Not to mention the 60000 yuan of taxes paid to the imperial court, which is much lower than last year, but considering the crisis of Mojia village this year, it is already valuable.


    Sure enough, Li Yi said: "the total annual expenditure of 50000 treasury bonds takes up the 50000 Guan deposit of Qianchou dealers, plus the money donated by you, the actual loss is about 130000 Guan. Li, as the village head, is to blame. He specially submits his resignation to the young master and asks the young master for approval."


    The villagers were in an uproar. At the moment, the crisis in Mojia village has passed. No one expected that Li Yi would take the initiative to submit his resignation. Li Shimin also looked at Merton with great interest and wondered how he would deal with it.


    Merton frowned and pondered a little: "Uncle Li! There are many problems in the crisis of Mojia village, and the main responsibility is not you."


    Li Yi insisted: "as the village head, I can''t shirk my responsibility for whatever reason."


    Li Shimin could not help nodding and glancing at Li Yigao. Li Yi is indeed to blame in this matter.


    Merton nodded: "in that case, I''ll punish Uncle Li for a year''s salary. As for his resignation, I think the villagers have more say than me. Then please ask all the villagers to vote by secret ballot to decide whether Uncle Li will go or stay."


    "Secret ballot!"


    Li Shimin and Li Chengqian looked at each other, and their hearts moved. It was the first time they heard about this way of holding an official position that the villagers decided the fate of the village head.


    In the past, most of the officials of any imperial court were appointed directly by the imperial court and the superior, but there was never a saying that the lower level decided the upper level. However, Li Shimin, as an eternal emperor, immediately thought of the benefits of this method. In this way, if the village head is unpopular or has a bad reputation, the people can directly drive him out of office, In this way, how can the village head not do his duty.


    "Sure enough, there are some ways!" Li Shimin was very interested. It has been normal for officials to deceive the lower level and the upper level since ancient times. The implementation of this law is decided by the people. How dare officials bully the people.


    However, at the thought of what Merton just said about a small country and few people, I can''t help shaking my head bitterly. This method is indeed good, but it''s really like what Merton said. I''m afraid it''s really a policy to govern the village.


    "Voting begins!"


    With Han Zheng''s loud drink, representatives of thousands of families in Mojia village came to the ballot box in front of Han Zheng.


    Soon, thousands of votes were counted. After Han Zheng carefully checked them, he said loudly: "the number of the villagers'' meeting was 1110 and 1110 people voted, of which 826 supported Li Yi, 174 opposed and 10 abstained. The resignation of Li Yi is invalid!"


    "Thank you for your trust. I deserve it." Li Yi was moved. He didn''t expect so many people to support him.


    Merton said softly, "Uncle Li takes the credit of Mojia village in his eyes. How can he not understand it? I hope Uncle Li will continue to take on the important task."


    "I will live up to your expectations!" Li Yi arched his hands.


    Li Chengqian shook his head in disapproval. In this way, it seems fair, but there is another disadvantage. That is, if a strong man is in office, he can be re elected all the time. I''m afraid it''s not in the interests of the imperial court.


    Li Shimin also noticed this and couldn''t help showing a thoughtful look.


    Merton suddenly got up and said, "at the meeting last year, I once urged Uncle Li to be the village head for one year. Now one year later, since the villagers support Uncle Li, I hereby announce the appointment of Li Yi as the village head of Mojia village."


    "Thank you, young master!" Li Yi bowed.


    Merton continued: "according to the rules of Mojia village, the term of office of the village head of Mojia village is three years. It is re elected every three years, up to two terms. The maximum age during the term of office shall not exceed 60. Li Yi is the first village head of Mojia village!"


    "Village rules!"


    "The term of office is three years and can be renewed once."


    "The maximum age is no more than 60."


    It suddenly occurred to Li Chengqian that Merton had already figured out the countermeasures. The tenure system and age limit went hand in hand, and the hidden danger of the elected village head was immediately eliminated.


    "Wonderful!"


    As soon as Li Shimin''s eyes brighten, he is like a court. Most of them are iron throne and flowing prime minister. The biggest reason is to avoid the prime minister''s power threatening the imperial power. As an emperor, he often needs to use the prime minister and guard against the prime minister. Once the prime minister''s reputation is too high, he will even suppress it.


    However, if the term of office system and age limit are set, the prime minister will automatically rotate when it expires. In this way, it can also preserve the name of kings and ministers and avoid the prime minister''s excessive power. The prime minister can plan carefully during his term of office without worrying about the loss of his status and avoiding the death of his government.


    "Stones from other mountains can attack jade. Today, I really didn''t go there in vain!" Li Shimin took a deep breath.


    Merton then said, "next, we will commend some representatives of the younger generation, tie Ping, Yu Er, Mo Da..."


    As for the later villagers'' meeting, Li Shimin did not stop paying attention, but bowed his head and meditated. For a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and frowned.


    It was not until the end of the villagers'' meeting that Li Shimin suddenly woke up.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Go back to the palace!"


    Seeing that it was getting late, Li Shimin ended today''s inspection. He had only planned to spend one morning in Mojia village, but unconsciously, a day had passed.


    , entrance of Mojia Village


    "Father emperor!" Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi looked at the deep Mohist village and said reluctantly.


    "Your Highness can come often in the future. The Mojia village will certainly welcome you!" Merton said. If they don''t have Li Shimin next time, I''m afraid Princess Changle will follow. I don''t know what''s going on. Recently, it''s more and more difficult for him to meet princess Changle.


    Princess Jinyang and Li Zhi got on the carriage.


    "The ink technique in Mojia village is really magical. Brother Mo, I''ll discuss it another day!" Li Tai said excitedly. Today''s trip opened his eyes and made him more interested in ink technique. For example, the greenhouse seems to be related to his local chronicles, which gave him a lot of new ideas.


    "My honor!" Murton bowed. It seems that Li Tai has gone farther and farther on the road of learning.


    Li Chengqian also arched his hands and stepped on the carriage.


    "The policy of governing the village is really good!" Li Shimin gave a perfunctory praise under Merton''s expectation, stepped on the carriage and left.


    "Congratulations, your majesty!"


    Merton was not disappointed. He looked happy. Li Shimin didn''t give him a good face. It was a very high evaluation to have good words.


    The carriage drove all the way east along the six lanes. Soon it reached the intersection, turned and sped all the way to Chang''an city.


    Through the glass of the new carriage, Li Shimin looked at the faraway Mojia village and thought about today''s experience. He felt like entering a paradise. Everything in Mojia village was unique, but people couldn''t help indulging in it.


    "It is worthy of being the first village in the world."


    Li Shimin smiled.

 Chapter 701

    Just one day.


    The completion of the expansion was like a paradise. The grand occasion of Mojia village immediately spread all over Chang''an city.


    "You haven''t been to Mojia village. As long as you get to Mojia village, the first village in the world is really not in vain. You think that 130000 Guan is a hundred flowers!" a merchant said proudly on his face in the pan family restaurant.


    "Just a village, can it be comparable to Chang''an city!" a Chang''an citizen sniffed. Chang''an city is the imperial capital, so that the people of Chang''an city are naturally proud. In their view, except Chang''an City, other places are rural.


    The merchant showed a strange smile and said, "when you get to Mojia village, you will find that maybe only Zhuque street in Chang''an city can be compared with Mojia village, and others are probably like the countryside."


    "A load of nonsense!" the local citizens of Chang''an City angrily said.


    "How dare a village compare with Chang''an City?" other diners were also unhappy.


    The merchant shook his head and said, "Mojia village is a village in name, but it is actually a city, a brand-new city, a city designed by Mojia Zi himself. I believe you all know the original planning map of Mojia village."


    The crowd nodded,


    "Now this plan has become a reality, no, even more beautiful than the picture." the merchant recalled the grand occasion of Mojia village and couldn''t help showing a trace of obsession.


    If one person praises Mojia village, perhaps no one believes it. If ten or hundreds praise it, people will not believe it. Moreover, Mojia village is not far from Chang''an city. Everyone who returns from Mojia village says so, which can''t help itching the people of Chang''an city.


    "The trees are green in winter."


    "Forbid brothel gambling house!"


    "With the rule of law, it is fair and just, and the old and the young are not deceived."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The villagers are rich and civilized, and the village environment is beautiful! Governing the village is fair and just! From word of mouth, Mojia village is like a paradise on earth. I wish I had been born in Mojia village.


    Many people were so excited that they rushed to Mojia village to see it in person.


    Outside the south gate,


    The four-wheel buses to Mojia village stopped there neatly. Since the bus carriage was built in Mojia village and public transportation was implemented in Chang''an City, the bus carriage that can carry many people immediately became hot on the brick road.


    In order to sell carriages, Mojia village launched intercity bus and urban-rural bus. However, the line from the South Gate of Chang''an to Mojia village has been operated by the transportation team of Mojia village. It is not that no one wants to make this extremely prosperous route. However, in the end, they know the difficulty and retreat.


    Because the line of Mojia village can be said to be operating at a loss, the longest bus route in Chang''an city is only 15 Li, and the bus is only two Wen when it is about 50 Li from Chang''an city to Mojia village.


    Fifty Li and two Wen, the price can be said to be extremely low. If a cart is full, I''m afraid it''s just enough for the coachman''s wages and horse materials.


    "Two Wen, so cheap?" a citizen who was going to go to Mojia village to find out the truth heard the price and smacked his tongue.


    "The four wheeled carriage was made by the Mojia village itself, which is naturally cheaper!" some people disapproved.


    "What''s the matter? It''s said that the Mojia villagers take a carriage back to Mojia village and don''t receive a penny!" envied a business traveler who often goes to Mojia village.


    "Who calls people the children of Mohism?" they said bitterly. Mohist village is not only rich, but also has many benefits. How can people not have a different mind.


    "The Mohist school is really biased!" chief editor Ma, disguised as an ordinary citizen, hummed coldly in his heart.


    He himself has a great prejudice against Mojia Zi and Mojia village. Since the news that the expansion of Mojia village is like a paradise spread, he naturally felt unhappy. Today, he deliberately disguised to carefully explore Mojia village and expose the true face of Mojia village.


    Chief editor Ma went to the carriage, took out two Wen and handed it out: "go to Mojia village!"


    However, I didn''t expect that the coachman didn''t accept it. Instead, he said, "from today on, the fare from Chang''an city to Mojia village will be free, and the fare for you will be paid by Mojia village!"


    "Free?"


    "Mojia village to pay?"


    Editor in chief Ma immediately looked at the coachman with a shocked face.


    "Seriously?" a merchant was pleasantly surprised. Business travel is the most calculated. If you can pay less, it would be better.


    The coachman solemnly nodded and said, "you are just like the children of Mohism. It''s also free!"


    "Benevolence and righteousness of Mojia village!" the citizens preparing to go to Mojia village were surprised. For the people of Chang''an City, two Wen money is not taken into account. For ordinary people, if it is enough to have a full meal, it will naturally be saved if it can be saved.


    "What if we go to Zhangjiazhuang? Is it free?" asked a Zhangjiazhuang winery.


    Zhangjiazhuang village is located between Mojia village and Chang''an city. It is famous for producing low-cost Zhangjia turbid wine. It is also a dull supplier of Mojia village. It has made a lot of money with Mojia village, but who hates it?


    The coachman shook his head regretfully and said, "no matter where you get on the official road in the south of the city, as long as you get to Mojia village, it''s free. If you get off halfway, it''s the same price, only to Zhangjiazhuang or two Wen."


    Zhangjia wine merchants immediately looked regretful and suddenly had an idea and said, "I''ve always wanted to go to Mojia village to buy some new year goods. I''ll just sit in Mojia village and come back. Anyway, it''s still the same price."


    "My village is not far from Mojia village. You can save a penny if you sit in Mojia village and come back?" a villager from a village near Mojia village whispered happily.


    When people say something to you and me, they immediately know how to save money.


    Editor in chief Ma looked coldly and saw the happy people one by one. He couldn''t help sighing: "Mohist village is easy to calculate."


    These people seem to have saved a penny or two, but if all of them want to save this money, they must reach Mojia village, which will bring a lot of people to Mojia village. Even if one of these people is buying the goods of Mojia village, Mojia village will be enough to get back. In this way, it is difficult for Mojia village to prosper.


    "This is Yang Mou, naked Yang Mou!" editor in chief Ma understood in his heart, and other people believed and understood that the purpose of Mojia village is to send more people to Mojia village, or even stay in Mojia village, but there is no dissatisfaction, because after all, Mojia village has really paid real money and saved them a sum of money.


    "The villain is like profit, and profit is tempting. The Mexican family is shameless!" chief editor Ma snorted coldly and put the two Wen money back in the money bag.


    As the carriage started slowly, it walked smoothly all the way and soon reached the entrance of Mojia village.


    "Wow!"


    Seeing the six lanes full of green plants, almost everyone couldn''t help but exclaim. They didn''t know that the rumors of Chang''an City were true until they came to Mojia village in person.


    "Here comes Mojia village! You can take the sightseeing carriage in Mojia village to the business district of Mojia village, which is also free," the coachman reminded.


    The coachman stopped the carriage steadily under the plaque of the first village in the world. Everyone got off one after another and looked at the Mojia village like a paradise,


    no Although the paradise is quiet, it lags behind the whole era, while Mojia village has a sense of beauty thousands of years ahead of this era and represents the future. Even the picky editor in chief Ma has to sigh: "it is worthy of being the first village in the world."


    Almost everyone could not resist the temptation and set foot on the sightseeing carriage to the Mojia village. When they came out, everyone was carrying big and small bags of new year goods.

 Chapter 702

    In the Mexican government, the round table was held again.


    "Young master, this is a brilliant plan. In just one day, the flow of people entering Mojia village has soared several times. I believe the major shops in the business district must be crazy!" Li Yi said excitedly. It was the first time so many people poured into Mojia village. Seeing the shocked faces of these people, Li Yi couldn''t help feeling proud.


    The reason why so many people come to Mojia village is not only their curiosity about the expanded Mojia village, but also many people are attracted by the free thing of sitting in Mojia village. As long as the officials in the south of the city are not in a hurry to go back, most of them choose to come to Mojia village for a turn. Of course, this turn immediately loses themselves in the prosperity of Mojia village.


    Merton also loosened his breath: "pay attention to expanding the number of four-wheel buses. Don''t let the people of Chang''an City return to Chang''an city because they miss the time. Be sure to return all the people of Chang''an City safely before closing the gate."


    If the people of Chang''an city can''t go back after they come to Mojia village, I''m afraid they don''t want to come even if they give money, let alone free.


    Li Xin nodded immediately and said, "young master, don''t worry. There are enough four-wheel buses in Mojia village. If one of the people in Chang''an City stays in Mojia village, I will send him back to Chang''an City in person."


    Merton glanced at Li Xin with satisfaction and nodded: "Chang''an city is the richest place in the world. There are people in the city who enjoy a good life. At the beginning of spring every year, a large number of citizens will go out of the city for outing. Mojia village should aim at this opportunity, locate itself in the tourism city and become the first choice for leisure and tourism vacation of Chang''an citizens. This is the first battle for Mojia village. Everyone who comes to Mojia village must take advantage of it, Have fun! "


    With the concept of future urban construction, Mojia village can be positioned as a tourist city, and can certainly attract many people to come to Mojia village. Therefore, convenient transportation is essential. Once anyone who comes to Mojia village returns, word of mouth, the reputation of Mojia village can certainly go up to another level.


    "Tourism city?"


    People were puzzled. People in Mojia village worked all day before. Where is the concept of tourism.


    Merton explained: "tourism is to travel and play. Mojia village is only 50 miles away from Chang''an city. Half an hour is enough to arrive, and one day is enough to go back and forth, which fully meets the basic needs of Chang''an citizens. In addition, the construction of Mojia village is so beautiful, how can it enjoy itself."


    Master Li struck the knot and sighed, "it''s wonderful! I think it''s certainly feasible!"


    As a literati, Master Li likes outing best. Naturally, he agrees with Merton''s idea very much


    Merton nodded: "Attracting the people of Chang''an city to visit Mojia village is a free gift for Mojia village. Moreover, all the people who come to visit Mojia village are Shanghu families with abundant money. Mojia village has been expanding the external market, but ignoring Mojia village itself. If the goods of Mojia village do not leave the village, they can sell a lot. Besides, how can the 130000 Guan of Mojia village be a hundred flowers."


    In this era, the traffic remains unchanged and the cost of transportation is very high. If the goods of Mojia village can be sold in the village, minus the high freight, even if the price is reduced, it can make a lot of profits. In this way, it can not only sell more goods, but also make a reputation for Mojia village and attract more people. I''m afraid it won''t be long before the 130000 yuan of Mojia village can return. "


    "But they come to Mojia village to see these green trees?" Li Yi and others don''t understand the ideas of the city people, which are common to them.


    Merton smiled and said, "I''m used to eating delicacies, and I want to taste wild vegetables and mountain goods. I''m used to the prosperity of others, and I still miss the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers. Your majesty doesn''t often go to other palaces, which means that ordinary citizens are not blessed to enjoy the beautiful scenery of other palaces, and I''m afraid my beautiful Mojia village is their best choice."


    To tell the truth, I''m afraid that the future urban concept of Mojia village has exceeded the beauty of other imperial courts to some extent. In addition, in the name of the first village in the world, Mojia village is not worried about whether it can attract people.


    "In addition, Mojia village will expand the construction of glass greenhouses. Whenever you come to Mojia village, you can taste fresh vegetables in winter; in spring, all kinds of orchards in the back mountain of Mojia village are full of flowers. It''s a beautiful scenery. It''s bound to be full of tourists. There are many fruits for picking in autumn. It''s fun." Merton said one after another, and even he couldn''t help but feel excited.


    If he wasn''t afraid of trouble, Merton even wanted to open Houshan lake for mountain climbing and summer cooling in summer. However, thinking that the mountain is not a safe place in this era, Merton gave up the plan once the unknown risks brought by entering the mountain.


    The eyes of the people in Mojia village are getting brighter and brighter. They never thought that these common things are what the people in Chang''an City yearn for.


    "You can try it!" Li Yi said.


    Now, Mojia village has spent a lot of money to expand the village. If we can take the opportunity to return to the capital, it will be a good thing.


    Xu Jie frowned and said, "young master, if you really want to do what the young master said, I''m afraid there are still some deficiencies in Mojia village.


    "Then tell me?" Morton said in surprise.


    Xu Jie solemnly said, "it takes about half an hour to go back to Mojia village from Chang''an city. It takes a lot of time to go back and forth for a full hour. For many people, I''m afraid the time is not enough. It''s impossible to arrive at Mojia village in the morning and leave in the evening at the same time. Otherwise, even if there are more four-wheel buses in Mojia village, I''m afraid it''s difficult to support it."


    Merton nodded approvingly. Many people came to Mojia village, but most of them came in a hurry and left immediately. It was like running water and slipped away in the twinkling of an eye. How to keep these people in Mojia village, like a trickle of water gathering a lake, can Mojia village flourish. "


    "Therefore, Xu believes that Mojia village should build a number of inns and restaurants. In this way, a considerable number of people will stay in Mojia village. If they stay one more day, the popularity of Mojia village will flourish." Xu Jie solemnly said.


    "Open inns and restaurants?" people couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. In this way, if some people didn''t have time to go back, they could stay in Mojia village, which not only reduced the pressure of public transportation, but also increased the income of Mojia village.


    Merton couldn''t help but take a high look at Xu Jie. In addition to the beautiful scenery, other relevant hotels and other supporting facilities must also be essential in any tourist city.


    "This matter is feasible and can be incorporated into the next planning of Mojia village." Li Yi nodded and agreed.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "the inn has a large investment, but the return is slow, and it is not the main business of Mojia village. Mojia village has a food city and a restaurant. These two items should be built in Mojia village, and the restaurant should be given to other merchants. Now the capital of Mojia village is limited, so we need to do a more meaningful thing with limited capital."


    People couldn''t help but brighten their eyes and looked at Merton with expectant eyes.


    Merton immediately showed a complacent smile and opened his mouth and said, "it''s safe to have thousands of buildings and shelter the poor people all over the world. It''s as safe as a mountain."


    Everyone looked at Merton''s infatuated look in confusion.


    Merton immediately touched his nose and said, "it''s selling a house!"

 Chapter 703

    "Sell a house!"


    Almost everyone could not help but frown. It was such a common thing that Merton said just now.


    "Vulgar!" Merton glared, "house is home. If you want to settle down, you must have a house. You can see how terrible it is to settle down in Chang''an city. Last year, the master opened a college in Chang''an city. Even the cheapest Quchi square in Chang''an City cost more than 10000."


    Mr. Li nodded deeply convinced that the greatest suffering of running the college was not the college or the school, but the purchase of the college land. The cost was so high that even he couldn''t help smacking his tongue. If it weren''t for the great financier of Mojia village, he might not be able to afford to open the college all his life.


    Merton was even more indignant and said, "the house in Yongkang square is only three bedrooms, and the price is 300 yuan. The most expensive is Yongle square, at least 5 million. You can see how difficult it is for me to buy a house with a six grade sacrifice. It takes at least more than ten years of salary, and I don''t eat or drink for more than ten years."


    "So high!" the crowd could not help but smack their tongue.


    "But what does this have to do with Mojia village? I don''t have a title deed in Chang''an city." Li Yi wondered. The territory of Mojia village in Chang''an city is a Mojia mansion, plus several shops. Even the Mojia technology exhibition can''t stand the high house prices in Chang''an City, so I have to move to the south of Chang''an city to reserve a place for the Mojia food city.


    Merton said with a smile, "although Chang''an City has no land, I have it in Mojia village!"


    Li Yi was suddenly surprised and said, "young master, are you going to sell a house in Mojia village?"


    Merton nodded solemnly: "When I planned the business district, I left a large area of open space between various shops. Now these are the time to use these open spaces. Chang''an city is the imperial capital. Countless people yearn for it. They have no fixed place to live and depend on others. This year, Mojia village can build houses in these open spaces and sell them to those who can''t afford houses in Chang''an city."


    "But does anyone buy it?" Xu Jie also wondered. One is Chang''an City and the other is Mojia village, 50 miles apart, and there is no comparability at all. Even if Mojia village is famous, I''m afraid many people don''t think so. Moreover, Merton once said that the real estate in the commercial district is 70 years old, while Chang''an city is lifelong.


    "Uncle Li, how much does it cost to build a three bedroom house?" Merton asked.


    Li Yi said without hesitation: "if the land is not counted, the houses in Mojia village are made of bricks and tiles, and all the roads in the hospital are paved with green bricks. I''m afraid it''s at least 20 times by materials and labor alone!"


    Merton pinched his fingers and said, "the price of the land should be at least 20 Guan. Plus the profit, a house in Mojia village will sell 60 Guan!"


    "60 Guan?" Xu Jie''s eyes lit up immediately. The price is much lower than that in Chang''an city. Ordinary officials can buy a house in only one or two years. I believe that this price will certainly attract many people.


    Merton showed a trace of self-confidence, of course, some people will move.


    Bai Juyi, a famous poet of later generations, first visited Gu Kuang in Chang''an city. Gu Kan saw Bai Juyi''s name and joked: "rice is expensive, and living is also easy." this sentence almost confirmed Bai Juyi''s life.


    Bai Juyi, who had just become an official, could only choose to rent a house under the high house price in Chang''an city. After a few years, he had a slight balance, so he exhausted his wealth. He bought a house for his mother and brother in the countryside south of Chang''an city. Bai Juyi, who was an official all his life, did not buy his first house in Chang''an City until he was 50.


    According to later records, the house price in Chang''an city was not the most terrible time, and the highest peak was in the period of Tang Xuanzong. Why was the house price in Chang''an city so high that even the prime minister could not afford it? The famous Prime Minister Yao Chong rented houses everywhere in Chang''an. Later, Tang Xuanzong paid money from the University as a reward to Yao Chong to build a house in Chang''an.


    Even officials can''t afford to buy a house in Chang''an City, not to mention ordinary people. Mojia village has convenient transportation and beautiful scenery. It is fair and just to rule by law. Once Mojia village only sells 600000 houses in Chang''an City, it will certainly impress many people.


    "In this way, it''s feasible!" Li Yi agreed. Mojia village can earn about 40 yuan for a house. What a huge profit, not to mention that it can build houses and bring so many jobs to Mojia village. Even he, who has always been conservative, can''t help but move.


    "But I''m afraid there will be many hidden dangers if so many foreign people enter!" Han Fuzi frowned. The foreign population is mixed, and a large number of foreign people pour into Mojia village. I''m afraid it will bring confusion in management.


    He thought, "all the immigrants must strictly examine the registered residence, and the new housing will be modeled on the square city management of Changan City, and it will be distributed in a district with hundreds of households, called the district."


    "This is a good policy." Han Fuzi agreed. The community is no more than 100 families, which is better managed. Moreover, the newly moved migrant population has no clan power and does not know each other. This is the best management object for the Legalists.


    "Master Li, I''m afraid the latest school will be built in the business district. Master remember to choose a big place!" Merton smiled at Master Li.


    Mr. Li was immediately delighted that the more the community in Mojia village was built, the more people would pour in, so his compulsory education would have sufficient students, and Mojia village could attract more people. In this way, his ideal could go further, and Mojia village also benefited a lot.


    "I''m afraid the Mexican hospital in the village will also be expanded." Merton also looked at Xianghua Laodao.


    Hua Lao proudly said, "don''t worry, the Mexican hospital now has enough staff."


    With the continuous expansion of the influence of Mohamed hospital, this mode of hospital has been recognized by more and more people, and a batch of excellent young doctors have been trained.


    "Uncle Li, we should pay attention to the recruitment of workers in Mojia village in the future and give priority to the recruitment from the business district. Since they have come to Mojia village and believe in Mojia village, Mojia village should live up to this trust and let them not only live well in Mojia village, but also live well." Merton solemnly said.


    "Don''t worry, young master. Mojia village is not a place to forget righteousness for profit."


    Merton nodded with satisfaction. In his planning, Mojia village is not only an industrial city and a tourism city, but also a more important function, that is, the satellite city of Chang''an City, Gongwei Chang''an City, win-win and common benefit


    The surrounding area of Chang''an city is blocked by the tall city walls. The space area has long been fixed. There is no free space in the city. House prices have risen year after year. It is certain that more people can''t afford to live in Chang''an City and leave disappointed, while Mojia village takes the opportunity to accommodate the lost population of Chang''an city.


    Although it is said that this is an act of digging into the corner of Chang''an City, in fact, it does no harm to Chang''an City, but is conducive to the price stability of Chang''an City, which I''m afraid chaotang is happy to see.

 Chapter 704

    "Of course, the crisis in Mojia village is extremely dangerous. We should also learn a lesson and take a warning!" Merton said positively.


    The people immediately sat in danger. The crisis in Mojia village was too dangerous. If Merton didn''t turn the tide, I''m afraid Mojia village would suffer heavy losses.


    "Don''t worry, young master. This time, we will act steadily." Li Yi said with lingering fear.


    If the Mohist village is really defeated in his hands and the general trend of Mohist revival is destroyed, he will be the biggest sinner of Mohism.


    Merton shook his head and said, "being safe means being conservative. Now the Tang Dynasty is peaceful and the people are safe, honest and clean, which is a great opportunity for the development of Mojia village. If Mojia village doesn''t seize this opportunity, I''m afraid it will soon disappear from the villages."


    Xu Jie nodded involuntarily. The previous measures of Mojia village were indeed radical, but the general direction was not wrong. If Mojia village acted conservatively, I''m afraid it didn''t have such a large scale at all. If Mojia village didn''t have such a large scale, how could it be worth your majesty to make it the first village in the world and personally inspect Mojia village.


    "What does the young master mean?" Li Yi wondered if he was in a dilemma and hesitated.


    "Last year, I said that the opening of Mojia village is to cross the river by feeling the stone, that is, Mojia village allows mistakes, which Uncle Li doesn''t need to blame himself." Merton comforted.


    Li Yi''s face got a little better.


    "However, Mojia village should try to avoid mistakes as much as possible. The term of office of the village head is three years. Uncle Li will make a three-year plan for the expansion of Mojia village in the future. It will be completed in a planned and step-by-step manner in three years. If errors are found and corrected in time, it will be called the three-year plan of Mojia village!" Merton politely copied the five-year plan of later generations, Today''s Mojia village adopts the collective economy. The implementation of the three-year plan is very in line with the reality of Mojia village. At the same time, it can be used to judge the success or failure of village governance.


    "Young master, wise!" Li Yi''s eyes lit up. Merton''s words immediately inspired him to govern the Mojia village. Acting according to the plan can completely avoid repeating the mistakes again.


    "This is one of them. The other is the money donated by the villagers years ago!" Merton said solemnly.


    "Young master, don''t worry about it. The young master led the Mojia village to live a good life and distributed houses to the villagers free of charge. The villagers have long remembered that this is just the small intention of the villagers. Besides, Mojia village is also the Mojia village of all the villagers!" Li Yilian hurriedly said.


    Merton shook his head and said, "public is public and private is private. This is the salary that the villagers deserve. How can the village take it in peace of mind. I even heard that many villagers have delayed the marriage even because they donated the bride price to the village, and some marriages are yellow."


    Li Yi''s face was unnatural and said, "that''s the other party''s lack of luck!"


    At that time, when the Mojia village was in crisis, many villagers gave all their savings to support the Mojia village. Many families delayed their wedding because they didn''t get married with a bride price. Many short-sighted people saw the crisis in the Mojia village and thought that the defeat of the Mojia village had been decided, so they took the initiative to repent of marriage. Now the Mojia village has survived the crisis, and many people who repent of marriage want to continue their engagement, But was categorically rejected by Mojia village.


    Mo Village naturally heard about it and nodded: "it''s good to recognize the character, but Mo Village can''t get a bride price, which is also one of the reasons. Solving the Bachelor of Mo Village is the top priority of Mo Village. This is not only my commitment to lead Mo Village out, but also the most important task of the village head."


    Li Yi also couldn''t help a burst of Hao Ran. He quickly nodded and said, "don''t worry, young master. For the remaining married villagers, I''ll go to talk to them in person."


    Master Li laughed and said, "brother Li can write this into the three-year plan."


    People can''t help smiling. Of course, they know it''s a joke. Now Mojia village has been on the right track and is afraid of not being able to marry a daughter-in-law.


    "Of course, the bride price can''t be less. The villagers won''t use half of their money in the village. They will certainly return all of it to the villagers," Merton said firmly.


    Everyone was suddenly silent, because they all knew that the cash in Mojia village was tight recently, all the money was used for the blade, and there was not so much money on the book.


    Merton looked around and said, "although the Mojia village can''t get so much money for a while, I''m going to prepare a bank in the village. The money donated by all the villagers will be used as deposits and vouchers. Anyone who needs money can get it at any time."


    Li Yi''s eyes lit up immediately. After all, there are not many villagers in Mojia village who need money. If only a small part of the money is withdrawn, it will have an impact on Mojia village. In this way, none of the villagers has less money, and Mojia village can continue to use this money.


    "This is a good recipe!" Xu Jie nodded slowly.


    "The bank! Is Mojia village ready to release the printed money!" Master Li suddenly changed his face. The printed money is usury and the bank''s main means of profit. Moreover, the printed money is profitable, which usually forces people to ruin their families. Master Li dislikes this behavior most. How can we not let Master Li think more about opening a bank in Mojia village.


    The other people also looked unnatural and obviously knew that the bank had a bad reputation. In fact, the bank had more than a bad reputation. It was infamous. It took advantage of people''s danger, fell into the well and collaborated with brothel gamblers. I don''t know how many families suffered this and ended up in ruin. The reputation of Datang bank can be said to be extremely bad. Only desperate people, Will seek the skin of a tiger.


    Merton quickly shook his head and said: "Naturally, the banks in Mojia village will not do such evil things. Now the industry in Mojia village is becoming larger and larger, and more and more money is circulating. How can ordinary people withstand such temptations, so that there are vicious events such as Liu Zhang Fang? After thinking about it, I decided to set up a special bank to manage the money in Mojia village, including the payment of wages in Mojia village. The expenses in the village are the responsibility of the banks Responsibility, even the business transactions in Mojia village are also handled by the bank. In this way, we can certainly avoid the recurrence of Liu Zhang room? "


    With the increase of workers in Mojia village and the continuous expansion and increase of transaction volume, it is more and more necessary to have a special organization responsible for money. In addition, the villagers'' donation and the vicious incident of Liu accounting room make Merton determined to build a bank.


    "The boss is wise!" Xu Jie exclaimed. In this way, all transactions related to money are in the charge of the bank, and other people don''t touch money at all, which not only greatly reduces the burden of major shopkeepers, but also avoids the possibility of many shopkeepers fleeing with money.


    Mr. Li''s face was a little relaxed. Although the bank had a bad reputation, he still believed that Merton would not do usury.


    Merton nodded: "of course, the reputation of the bank is not good. If the Mojia village continues to use the name of the bank, I''m afraid it will be regarded as birds of a feather. Most of the settlement in the Mojia village is mainly silver. How about changing its name to a bank."


    "Bank!"


    Master Li pondered for a moment and couldn''t help nodding. Silver was also the main trading currency in the Tang Dynasty. Banks refer to commercial banks. Silver commercial banks are indeed very appropriate.

 Chapter 705

    Merton continued: "when the bank is built, the Mojia village will ask the public losers to design the strongest and safest bank to ensure everything."


    "Public loser!"


    The people could not help but look at each other. No one thought that the Mohist family had a big brain hole and wanted to let the public loser, the strong enemy of the Mohist family, build a place to store gold and silver for the Mohist village.


    "Young master, that''s a loser!" Li Yi couldn''t help reminding him.


    "What about the public losers? Don''t they want to do this business?" Merton didn''t understand.


    Seeing Merton pretending to be confused, Li Yi said in a worried voice: "in case the public loser has an accident when he gets rich..."


    Although Li Yi didn''t finish, people can naturally understand Li Yi''s concerns. There are too many things to get excited about money. The public losers are indeed unique in the secret room of the mechanism, which is recognized all over the world, but money and silk move people''s hearts. Besides, the public losers themselves and Mohist are competitors, and no one can guarantee that the public losers will not leave the back door to pit Mohist village.


    Merton smiled and explained: "not to mention that the public losers specialize in technology, they have their own uniqueness. You can ensure that the bank designed by the Mojia village can not be cracked by the public losers!"


    The crowd was silent., In this respect, Mojia village is indeed inferior to the public loser''s craft.


    "Moreover, the precise requirement of the bank is that the public losers can''t crack it. If even the public losers can''t crack it, I''m afraid it''s the safest place in the world. Of course, the heart of preventing people is indispensable. The design of the bank still needs to be reviewed and constructed by Mohist village." Merton said his request, and the people nodded slightly. In this way, This is no problem. Although they can''t compare with public losers, public losers can''t escape their eyes if they dare to do things.


    Li Yi was relieved and nodded: "although the public loser is not in harmony with the Mohist school, he also pays attention to his reputation. I don''t think he will damage his reputation."


    Merton nodded. The reputation and superb skills of the public loser, coupled with the supervision of the Mohist school, can create the safest bank. In his vision, the bank is an extremely important part of the Mohist village, which should not be lost. This is why he is ready to hand over the design of the bank to the public loser.


    "The Mojia village plans to build three banks at the same time, one in Chang''an City, one in Luoyang and one in Mojia village. If a Mojia child wants to go to Luoyang, he can use the bills opened by the bank in the Mojia village, then he can go to Luoyang alone with the bills. When he arrives in Luoyang, he can go to the bank in Luoyang to take out money and buy goods. In this way, there will be no need to send many people to escort Money greatly facilitates the transaction process. "Merton briefly explained the role of banks.


    Merton adopted the concept of flying money in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Flying money was popular in the Tang and Song Dynasties, similar to the current remittance money. Although it seems extremely backward to future generations, it has become an avant-garde concept in this era of inconvenient transportation.


    "This is extremely convenient!"


    One armed Uncle Wang nodded approvingly. He escorted silver back from Luoyang. It was very dangerous all the way. Naturally, he knew the risk of escorting money. If Mojia village opened a bank in three places, it would greatly reduce the number of escorting and reduce the cost and risk, and the children of Mojia reduced the inconvenience of carrying a large amount of money. From this point of view, this bank is indeed very convenient.


    Xu Jie said in his heart, "I don''t know if the owner can allow other merchants to use the Bank of Mojia village. If so, even if Mojia village charges some fees, these merchants are afraid to be willing. Moreover, Chang''an and Luoyang of Mojia village collect money and remit money at the same time, without consuming principal and escort, they can sit down and collect money."


    He used to be a merchant. Naturally, he knows how inconvenient it is for merchants to carry money. If the Bank of Mojia village is open to the outside world, I''m afraid those merchants will come in droves. After all, it''s very heavy and inconvenient for merchants to carry silver. I''m afraid they have to worry. If the Bank of Mojia village allows other merchants to use flying money, it will be convenient for merchants, Mojia village can make a lot of profits, which is killing two birds with one stone.


    Merton looked at Xu Jie with appreciation and nodded: "now the bank has just been established, which can be used by merchants cooperating with Mojia village. The fee is set at one hundred out of one."


    Xu jiedun was a little sorry, but he also knew that Merton was right.


    Merton naturally knew Xu Jie''s idea. Lang said: "shopkeeper Xu, don''t regret. After the bank runs well, the threshold will no longer be set in Mojia village. Over time, the banks in Mojia village have opened all the roads in the Tang Dynasty. There is no need to carry money between the roads. What a grand occasion it will be."


    Xu Jie was shocked. If so, it would be the greatest gospel for the merchant.


    Merton smiled. In later generations, the most profitable business of banks is lending, and there are few transfer fees. However, Merton found that in this era, the transportation is inconvenient and the information is poor. If people go far, it is very inconvenient and unsafe to carry heavy money. If banks can remit money, on the contrary, the handling fee is probably the biggest profit of banks.


    It''s worth one hundred, which is very cost-effective compared with the risks and costs brought by carrying money. For Mojia village, the profit is 1%, the turnover period is short, and there are many businesses. The bank is simply reaping huge profits.


    Seeing this, Master Li sighed: "since ancient times, banks have made a living by printing money, but they have tried their best to squeeze other people''s money, while Mojia village has helped people, made profits and achieved win-win results. In this way, if the world is like Mojia village, I''m afraid the day of great harmony is not far away!"


    Although Mojia village earns money from merchants, it also saves more money for merchants. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a right way. This is also the place where he appreciates Mojia Zi most.


    When Merton heard the speech, he said, "in that case, why doesn''t the master summarize the successful methods of Mohist village and form a Mohist village model to let the world know, isn''t it a great good?"


    "Mohist village model!" Master Li suddenly heard the speech.


    He believes that the world must be very curious about how Mojia village becomes the first village in the world. If he can promote the model of Mojia village, countless villages around the world will follow suit, and countless people will benefit from it.


    "You can say anything, even if we discuss the bank today?" asked Mr. Li.


    Merton nodded and said, "if you don''t reveal the secret skills of the Mohist school, you can''t help it! Besides, if the bank is established, today''s business is not a secret, but the bank is a new thing, and it''s doubtful whether it can succeed. If someone uses this policy to compensate, you can''t blame the students."


    Master Li immediately smiled bitterly and gave up the idea. Many things are in the hands of others and in the hands of Merton. It is safer for him to spread the successful and reproducible experience of Mojia village honestly.


    So far, the round table meeting of the eight years of Zhenguan officially ended.


    Merton got up and left in a hurry, because he was going to meet the first person to learn the mode of Mohist village.


    Chang''an County Magistrate Su Luosheng.

 Chapter 706

    "Mohou is really a good calculation!"


    At the entrance of Mojia village, Su Luosheng looked at the Chang''an citizens pouring into Mojia village. Naturally, he knew the behavior of Mojia village digging the corner of Chang''an city. He couldn''t help humming.


    After receiving the order from Li Shimin, he immediately came to Mojia village without stopping. He had not learned his experience, but caught the behavior of openly digging at the foot of the wall in Mojia village!


    Merton laughed and didn''t feel guilty about being caught in court. He said, "the county Lord is stingy. Chang''an city is the imperial capital and should have the world in mind. Besides, which counties around Chang''an city don''t rely on Chang''an City, not just Mojia village."


    Su Luosheng said with a wry smile, "at least they are not as brazen as the Mohist village."


    Mojia village directly arranges four-wheel carriages. Whenever people go to Mojia village for free, naturally countless people will give priority to Mojia village. On this point alone, the attraction of Mojia village to Chang''an citizens has far exceeded that of Chang''an counties.


    Merton laughed and said, "the county Reverend will not come to ask questions today! After the construction of Chang''an City, I''m afraid the Mojia village will be the yellow flower of the past, which can shake the interests of Chang''an city!"


    Su Luosheng gave up when he thought of the purpose of coming today. After all, he still asked for Mojia village at the moment.


    "County honor, please!"


    Merton reached out and invited.


    Su Luosheng showed his face and entered Mojia village. Although the road in Mojia village is less than half of Chang''an City, it is planned to be a variety of lanes and sidewalks, isolated green belts, and orderly pedestrians. Some intersections in the business district are even busier than Chang''an city. However, under the command of the two village guards, there is no congestion.


    The form of village guard and court, the planning of the square and the layout of Mojia village. Under the leadership of Merton, suluosheng looked carefully inside and outside of Mojia village. Even except for the R & D area, suluosheng didn''t fall behind.


    Suluosheng frowned, smiled and thought.


    "Benefit a lot!" suluosheng walked out of Mojia village and couldn''t help sighing.


    The design concept of Mojia village has far exceeded that of Chang''an city. Of course, some concepts of Mojia village can not be used, such as ruling ink by law, but there are great references in other aspects.


    Merton arched his hand and said, "Chang''an City has a strong heritage. If the county Lord changes slightly, Chang''an city will be greatly changed. At that time, the world will hear the name of the county Lord."


    Su Luosheng couldn''t help looking happy. Although Chang''an city is the imperial capital, it has an extremely powerful competitor, Luoyang. Luoyang''s economic status has always been above Chang''an city. Until the brick road was built, Chang''an city took this opportunity to catch up. In addition, the Mohist ink technology made Chang''an City benefit first, which was gradually equal to Luoyang.


    However, with the continuous extension of the Longhai line and the north-south line centered on Xingyang connecting the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, Luoyang has made rapid progress again, which obviously puts pressure on Su Luosheng. If he can take the lead in improving Chang''an City and make Chang''an city a livable city, he can greatly add a chip to his political achievements. Since the tax reform of Chang''an City, It also has sufficient financial resources to complete the expansion of Chang''an city.


    "How many more green plants are there? Chang''an city needs them all!" Suluo pointed out.


    Merton smiled bitterly when he heard the speech. Naturally, he knew what Su Luosheng meant. However, Luoyang has convenient transportation. It''s not too difficult to get these green plants. It just costs more and takes more time! "


    "It''s natural! As long as the county Lord leaves some seedlings for Mo Xinjian village!" Merton said without hesitation.


    After all, Mojia village is under the jurisdiction of Chang''an City, so it should support Chang''an city.


    When Su Luosheng heard the speech, he nodded with satisfaction. Looking at the beautiful Mojia village, he was not only in a trance. It can be said that he witnessed the growth of Mojia village, even now he felt incredible.


    "There are also the two village guards at the intersection. After the new year, the county will recruit for a month." Su Luosheng pointed to the two village guards in charge of directing traffic.


    Merton smiled and said, "it''s their honor!"


    Chang''an city is the imperial capital, and every move will immediately spread all over the world. After Chang''an city changes greatly, the reputation of Mojia village model will certainly rise to a higher level. This is a matter of win-win and common benefit, and Merton will certainly not refuse.


    "Of course, the taxes of Mojia village next year must not be as low as this year, otherwise if the reconstruction of Chang''an City fails, I''ll ask you about Mojia village!" Su Luosheng pretended to be angry.


    The expansion of Mojia village cost 130000 Guan at once, and if Chang''an city is rebuilt, I''m afraid 300000 Guan is not enough. Mojia village is a major tax payer in Chang''an city. In the eighth year of Zhenguan, Mojia village was hit hard, and the taxes paid suddenly decreased a lot, so the taxes distributed to Chang''an city also decreased a lot.


    Merton laughed and said, "don''t worry, county Lord. Next year''s Mojia village tax will certainly not delay the retreat of Chang''an city."


    As for Su Luosheng''s subtext, Merton naturally knows that if Chang''an city wants to pay more taxes in Mojia village, the economy of Mojia village has been linked to Su Luosheng''s political achievements, so it naturally needs to escort Mojia village.


    Su Luosheng nodded with satisfaction, and then drove away.


    "The host is wise!" Xu Jie, who accompanied him, said with admiration.


    He didn''t expect that Merton''s previous vision had really become a reality, and the court officials actually escorted them. Although at present, suluosheng is the only one, this is a wonderful beginning.


    Merton shook his head and said, "at the moment, he will naturally do so for his official position. Maybe when he doesn''t need political achievements, he will turn over immediately. Our task is still heavy and far away."


    In essence, Su Luosheng is still a Confucian bureaucrat. I''m afraid Su Luosheng wouldn''t have changed so much if Luoyang hadn''t forced him and Li Shimin''s order. Otherwise, he wouldn''t choose to stand idly by at the most critical time of Mohist village.


    However, Xu Jie said with confidence: "once the reconstruction of Chang''an city is completed, the world will gather to follow suit, the money will be countless, and the status of merchants will change."


    As long as the proportion of taxes paid by merchants is increasing, he believes that one day in the future, the status of merchants will be the same as that of farmers. It may be a long time, but it will come.


    Merton looked at Xu Jie''s firm face and couldn''t help smiling knowingly. Su Luosheng''s transformation may be his biggest harvest in eight years in Zhenguan.


    "Let''s go! The Chinese New Year is coming tomorrow. I believe that the nine years of Zhenguan will make the Mojia village better!" Merton felt the more and more intense flavor of the new year, and couldn''t help but show a trace of joy.

 Chapter 707

    First day!


    Today''s Mojia village is particularly lively. The whole Mojia village is full of the noise of gongs and drums, which is particularly festive.


    On the first day of each year, a large number of carriages are parked outside the Mojia village to specially take the Mojia villagers to Chang''an city. This year, it seems that there are some exceptions, only a few four-wheel carriages are waiting.


    First, the Mojia village didn''t marry many brides this year. Second, the construction of today''s Mojia village is more beautiful than Chang''an City, which makes many villagers who have often traveled to and from Chang''an city feel that there is no novelty. Of course, more importantly, today''s Mojia village is still in a difficult period, and the villagers will not go to Chang''an City, a place where money flows like water.


    The carriages that stayed were the carriages that Merton was going to return to Chang''an city. Li Yi and others were seeing Merton off.


    At the moment, Yang''s family and Wu Meiniang hurried to the village. Wu Meiniang sighed with relief when she saw Merton''s carriage, bowed and said, "I''ve paid a new year''s greeting to my master."


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang unexpectedly and said, "today is the first day. Are you not at home with your mother?"


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "disciple will naturally return to Chang''an City together with her master. Besides, my mother''s life in Mojia village is excellent. Naturally, disciple doesn''t have to worry."


    Seeing Wu Meiniang''s resolute face, Merton nodded and said, "I won''t start until a moment later. Go and say goodbye to your mother."


    "Thank you, master!" Wu Meiniang got up with a happy face. After all, she is only ten years old. How can she not miss yang.


    Wu Meiniang returned to Yang with a happy face, but Yang couldn''t bear to leave and couldn''t help crying.


    "Mother, don''t cry. Chang''an city is very close to Mojia village. If mother wants to have a child, she can come to see the child at any time." Wu Meiniang comforted.


    Yang shook his head, picked up Wu Meiniang''s heavy package and sobbed, "which country''s daughter in the world is not carefree all her life. Where do you need to read so many books? Suffer from this ten-year cold window!"


    Yang''s life in Mojia village is not bad, and the beautiful Mojia village is more comfortable than Chang''an city. She is naturally very satisfied. However, when her daughter comes back this time, she reads late into the night with thick books every day. How can she not feel distressed.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head firmly and said, "today, my service is the way of ancient sages. Don''t you know it''s not a blessing? Why should I cry and be a child?"


    Today, she is only a 10-year-old girl. She has to be weak and have no appearance. The helplessness she and Yang had when they were driven out of the Wu mansion has been remembered by her. Now she has finally found her own strength and knowledge.


    She didn''t want to encounter a similar situation again, but like her mother, she would only sit on the ground and cry weakly without fighting back.


    Wu Meiniang waved goodbye to her mother, turned around, carried her heavy luggage and resolutely stepped on the carriage.


    Merton naturally saw this scene and nodded with satisfaction. He really didn''t accept the wrong disciple. Although the track of Wu Meiniang in history has changed, I''m afraid her heart has been stimulated at the moment when she was driven out of the Wu mansion.


    "Let''s go!"


    Merton boarded the carriage, and the motorcade started slowly and quickly headed for Chang''an city. Today is the day of the month. He still has one of the most important things to do, that is, the regular first day meeting every year.


    During the year of the first day pilgrimage, Li Shimin met with the largest and most ceremonious pilgrimage of all officials. However, it was not the pilgrimage, but the pilgrimage of all officials to Li Shimin. They often made a pilgrimage to all officials, presented gifts everywhere, and even foreign envoys congratulated Li Shimin on the new year.


    In the past, Merton had no official position and naturally did not need to see the Yuan Dynasty meeting. However, this year, he has been an official from the sixth grade, and he is in charge of the firearms supervision alone. Naturally, he needs to visit the Yuan Dynasty meeting.


    The carriage went all the way. After entering the south gate, other carriages rushed back to Mo mansion, while Merton took the carriage and rushed directly to the palace.


    When Merton arrived in front of the Tai Chi hall, he was stunned. He saw a large number of officials gathered in front of the Tai Chi hall, at least hundreds of people.


    "It''s said that there are many officials in the capital like dogs! The ancients sincerely didn''t deceive me!" Merton sighed for a while. I''m afraid that only a few dozen officials can climb the Tai Chi hall at ordinary times, and most other officials may have the opportunity to climb the Tai Chi hall once a year.


    And most of them are in their 40s and 50s. Although the secret skill of hair dyeing makes everyone in Manchu officials have black hair, the old face can''t deceive people! When young Merton stood in the team, he immediately became particularly conspicuous and attracted the attention of the public.


    "Mojiazi!"


    When people saw this Mohist child like a rash catfish, they were not surprised.


    Most of the people above the court hall are the children of Confucianism, and how can the sudden rise of Mohism not make them look at it? What they did not expect is that Mohism has a strong rise. Especially recently, the future city of Mohist village has amazed the whole Chang''an city. All those who return from Mohist village are full of praise, and all officials have heard of it.


    The officials of the first department in Luoyang could not help gnashing their teeth at the Mohist family, while the Guanlong aristocrats hated and loved the Mohist family. On the one hand, they hated the Mohist family''s second favor order. On the other hand, they needed the technology of the Mohist village to improve food production to solve the plight of the Guanlong family.


    Other officials saw Merton for the first time and couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    Merton saluted politely one by one, but all the officials immediately avoided their eyes, and Merton was immediately isolated.


    Merton was dejected and silently ready to retreat to the last position. Suddenly, a rough big hand against Merton''s back. Merton turned his head and saw that it was the big Si Ma sulingnong.


    Su Lingnong laughed and said, "I''m afraid I don''t know. The first day Dynasty meeting is divided according to the grade of officials. Ink sacrifice has been divided from six grades, so it''s natural to stand in the position of six grades."


    Merton quickly bowed and said, "thank you for your advice."


    All the officials isolated Merton, and only the big Si Nong Su Lingnong was close to him, which obviously took a great political risk.


    Su Lingnong said with a smile, "if you really want to thank me, let me go to your glass greenhouse to have a look at the vegetables, melons and fruits produced out of season. These are things that benefit the country and the people. I feel itchy."


    As a farmer, he suddenly heard that Mojia village had a way to make vegetables grow out of season in winter. How can he restrain himself.


    Merton said without hesitation, "why is this difficult? The big farmer is a farmer. Who knows farming better than you in the world? Years later, the boy will surely send craftsmen to build a glass greenhouse in Su''s house for the big farmer to test improved varieties."


    Su Lingnong is the man whom Merton admired most. He devoted himself to the farmhouse and kept cultivating good seeds for the imperial court all his life. Such a pure man is also an alien in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty and the most firm ally of the Mohist school.


    "You''re welcome!" Su Lingnong said without hesitation.

 Chapter 708

    "Your Majesty is here!" with Pound''s sharp voice, the first day session officially began.


    Under the leadership of Fang Xuanling, hundreds of officials rushed into the Tai Chi hall. The originally spacious Tai Chi hall was immediately crowded with officials inside and outside.


    "Lord Su won''t go to the front?" Merton pointed to the position ahead and said to Su Lingnong.


    Su Lingnong''s official position is the third grade. Standing beside Merton, who is from the sixth grade, he is particularly conspicuous. Just now, Su Lingnong said that today''s standing column is sorted according to the official position.


    Su Lingnong smiled like a simple old farmer and said, "I''m in the court hall. It can be said that I''m dispensable. There are many old men, but not many young ones. Where can I stand?"


    The position of Da Si Nong has become extremely embarrassing after the reform of successive dynasties. In the Tang Dynasty, he is only a prominent position and has no real power. Su Lingnong is the only remaining fruit of the peasant family. He has a detached position in the court hall. Naturally, no one cares where he stands.


    "Congratulations on your Majesty''s Spring Festival!"


    Under the leadership of Fang Xuanling, the ministers congratulated.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly, and then Fang Xuanling took out his memorial, quoted scriptures, praised Li Shimin''s great achievements in the past year, and looked forward to the bright future of Zhenguan in the past nine years.


    The ministers were intoxicated, but Merton was confused. He also studied Confucianism, but he only knew a little about these awkward words. It was difficult for Fang Xuanling to read these cadences smoothly.


    Fortunately, Fang Xuanling soon ended, and then officials from all over the country offered tribute.


    "Ten jars of wine from Jiannan road!..."


    "Jiangnan Road sends a bamboo tree with pearls!......"


    "Huainan road..."


    The sheriffs from all walks of life sent rich tributes, all of which were valuable.


    "Lingnan road brought ten Jadeites, ten beautiful jades and ten precious stones..." when Feng Zhidai offered tribute on behalf of Lingnan Road, the whole court couldn''t help but be in an uproar. Among the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid the Feng family on Lingnan road sent the most treasures.


    "I''m afraid your Majesty''s change of land to flow has frightened the king of Lingnan. This time, the Feng family has paid blood." Su Lingnong gloated. He has a superior position in the court hall, but he sees it very accurately.


    Since Merton offered the strategy of changing the land to the flow, the imperial court suddenly changed the land to the flow of the three Liao tribes, adding three new counties to the Tang Dynasty. This naturally aroused thousands of waves with one stone, and the Liao tribes surged.


    However, the imperial court had been prepared for it. The troops were mobilized again and again, and envoys were sent to appease them. Only then could the situation be stabilized. Then the military parade showed invincible military power, which subdued the Liao tribe.


    Among the people who have changed the land to return to the flow, I''m afraid the Feng family is the most worried. If the Feng family has controlled Lingnan road for several generations, if the land to return to the flow is implemented in Lingnan Road, I''m afraid the Feng family will be the first to move.


    "I''m afraid the Feng family hates the boy," Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Su Lingnong shook his head and said, "you''re worried. Although Feng Zhidai doesn''t become a climate, Feng ang is a smart man. Even if he doesn''t change the soil to flow, can his Feng family control Lingnan road forever."


    I''m afraid the Feng family had a place only at the time of the alternation of dynasties. Now, in the life of the Tang Dynasty, how can the court tolerate the long-term control of Lingnan road in the hands of one family? I''m afraid the Feng family''s transfer from Lingnan road will come to an end sooner or later.


    "Feng Aiqing has a heart!" Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction.


    "Your Majesty, these are just vulgar things. My father sent me another good news this time. I believe your majesty will be happy after hearing it." Feng Zhidai bowed.


    "Oh! Speak quickly." Li Shimin looked at Feng Zhidai unexpectedly.


    Feng Zhi showed a trace of pride when Dayton said: "Johor rice has been tested in Lingnan for only one year. Up to now, it has been harvested for three seasons, up to four loads of rice per season, and it is very easy to plant, waterlogging and drought resistant."


    "Three seasons a year, four loads a season, can''t you harvest twelve loads of rice a year?"


    When Feng Zhidai finished, man Chaodun made an uproar. The harvest of 12 loads a year is probably the most high-yield grain in the Tang Dynasty. Once Johor rice is popularized in the south, I''m afraid there will be no food shortage in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin said suddenly.


    No matter how valuable the other gifts were, he would not take them to heart, but Johor rice made him more happy. You know, the general rice yield in the Tang Dynasty was only one or two loads, mostly two years and three seasons. Suddenly Johor rice reached three seasons a year. Even if Lingnan road could reach four loads of high yield at the expense of fertility, it should be easy for ordinary farmers to reach three loads. In this way, There are also nearly ten loads of output per mu a year.


    Feng Zhidai respectfully said, "don''t worry, your majesty. How can the Feng family commit the crime of bullying the king."


    Li Shimin nodded. How could he hide such things? The yield of Johor rice is so high that he must promote the southern Taoism in the future. The Manchu courtiers could not help but rejoice.


    "Feng Aiqing has a heart. If the trial planting of Johor rice is successful, Feng Aiqing should take the lead." Li Shimin said excitedly.


    "Your Majesty is flattered. This is what the Feng family should do." Feng Zhi said with a surprised look on his face.


    "The position of the Feng family has been preserved!" the Manchu courtiers sighed and said.


    For a long time, chaotang was dissatisfied with the Feng family''s control of Lingnan Road, and the advice to transfer the Feng family from Lingnan road was often sent to Li Shimin''s desk. Now the Feng family has made such great achievements, at least when Feng ang was alive, chaotang will not move the Feng family.


    Of course, the Feng family did not rely on the whole merit, but stole the achievements of the Mohist school. Otherwise, the Feng family will be able to go to another level with this merit alone.


    Immediately, many people looked vaguely at Merton in the rear. If the Feng family didn''t block the way and rob, I''m afraid the credit would belong to the Mohist son alone.


    "Mo sacrificing wine regrets it!" Su Lingnong touched Merton.


    Merton smiled and said, "Johor rice is supposed to grow in the heat. Even if Mo gets the rice seed, he will finally send it to Lingnan road for trial planting. Lord Su''s trial planting is not very successful!"


    Su Lingnong''s face darkened. He also got a batch of Johor rice seeds in the Si Nong temple. However, the trial planting situation was not optimistic. It was only two crops a year, and the yield was less than three loads, which could not achieve the expected goal. He originally wanted to continue to improve and then report to the court, but he didn''t expect that the trial planting in Lingnan road was successful.


    "It''s just a matter of water and soil! After waiting for several generations of Johor rice, the water and soil in Datang will certainly improve greatly. If you cross with Datang late rice, you may be able to get better varieties." Merton doesn''t doubt this situation, but how can the introduction of new varieties be smooth sailing.


    Su Lingnong nodded thoughtfully and said: "I inform your majesty that since Johor rice can be planted on Lingnan road and Johor is not too far from Lingnan, please send someone to Johor to get seeds. I will plant this rice one day earlier in Datang, and the people all over the world will benefit one day earlier."


    "That''s very kind!" Li Shimin readily agreed.


    "Your Majesty, there are many boats on the sea in Lingnan. It doesn''t need your majesty to make a big fight. Lingnan road can do it naturally." Feng Zhidai immediately volunteered. There are many maritime merchants in Lingnan road. It''s still very simple to transport a batch of rice seeds back from Johor. With the status of the Feng family, many people are willing to serve.


    "I''ve been waiting for good news from Feng Aiqing!" Li Shimin nodded.


    "I will certainly not disappoint your majesty!"


    Feng Zhidai got the result he wanted and retired with satisfaction.


    "Today is the first day of the year. You must all want to go home for a reunion. I won''t disturb you and disperse the dynasty!" Li Shimin waved his hand and the first day of the year''s day meeting officially ended.

 Chapter 709

    Happy New Year!


    After all officials paid homage three times, they left one after another.


    "Go back to the political hall!"


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and smiled knowingly. The Grand Court meeting on the first day is the etiquette of the imperial court. Now it is the time for the royal family to reunite.


    When Li Shimin arrived at the Lizheng palace in a four wheeled carriage, a group of concubines and children of the harem had already been waiting here, and they were clearly divided into three teams, one was the harem concubines led by Empress changsun, one was the princes led by Li Chengqian, and the other was the princesses LED by Princess Changle.


    When they saw Li Shimin''s carriage, their eyes lit up and they stepped forward one after another.


    In the past, the most common tool in the Imperial Palace was the sedan chair. However, with the popularity of four-wheel carriage, the convenient, comfortable and stable four-wheel carriage soon replaced the sedan chair.


    Even in the whole Tang Dynasty, where brick roads were built, four-wheel carriages have gradually replaced sedan chairs. After all, people who can take sedan chairs can''t afford a four-wheel carriage.


    Especially in the cold winter, the sealed and warm four-wheel carriage naturally beats the sedan chair. Not to mention the Mojia village, the four-wheel carriage is equipped with clear glass, which is much better than the sedan chair.


    "See your majesty!"


    "See father!"


    Empress changsun, Li Chengqian and Princess Changle came forward and saluted one after another.


    Li Shimin stepped out of the carriage and said with a smile: "get up! Today is a family banquet. There are not so many rites."


    The people got up and immediately talked and laughed. The tall Princess Wei looked at Li Shimin''s four-wheel carriage and said with envy: "Your Majesty, is this carriage new and inlaid with such large glass?"


    In later generations, a man''s capital to show off is nothing more than a luxury car. However, a thousand years in advance, this principle is equally effective, but it is replaced by a horse. However, after Merton made a four-wheel carriage, the status of the horse and carriage has gradually become equal. Owning a carriage in Mojia village is also a matter of face.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he said proudly: "this is the tribute offered by the Mohist village. It is the second generation carriage of the Mohist village. It is much more convenient than taking a sedan chair. If you like it, I will let the Mohist village pay another batch of tribute."


    Princess Wei was tall and liked riding and hunting, and of course she also liked carriages. When she heard the speech, she smiled and said, "I heard that Mojia village had just passed the crisis and was short of money. How can I ask for a carriage in Mojia village for nothing? Your majesty has given me a lot of money these years. I can afford a four-wheel carriage?"


    While Princess Wei spoke, her eyes involuntarily floated to the end of the concubine team. A young and gorgeous face was impressively Zheng Chonghua.


    Zheng Chonghua was shocked when she heard the speech. The biggest culprit of the crisis in Mojia village was her mother''s Zheng family. Princess Wei deliberately mentioned the crisis in Mojia village. This is to give her another eyedrop!


    She originally thought that she could quickly get the favor of Li Shimin by virtue of her appearance. However, as soon as she entered the harem, she found that she was wrong, not to mention that there was an unshakable eldest grandson queen at the top, that is, other harem concubines were not fuel-efficient lamps. Although Zheng Chonghua was suddenly declared high, she was actually very unpopular and excluded.


    "Before my concubine entered the palace, the tool I used to travel on weekdays was a four-wheel carriage produced by Mojia village. How can I miss the second-generation carriage of Mojia village? My concubine also had a lot of money and bought such a four-wheel carriage." Zheng Chonghua said proudly.


    Many concubines were stunned. Zheng Chonghua was very clever. Even when he was angry, he would bow his head and endure. I didn''t expect that she was so abnormal today. Even Princess Wei was stunned.


    Li Shimin took an unexpected look at them. How could he know about the struggle in the back palace? As long as there was no violent conflict, he would not intervene. In general, empress Chang sun would handle this kind of thing well.


    Empress Chang sun waved her hand and said, "the royal family can afford a little money for the carriage. Every concubine with more than second grade in the palace has a new carriage as a substitute, which is funded by the internal Treasury."


    "Thank you, Queen!" the concubines thanked one after another.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "it''s rare that the queen has a heart!"


    The eldest grandson empress Zhan Yan smiled and said, "today is the first day. Should everyone be happy when they get together?"


    Wei Guifei felt a chill in her heart. Empress changsun''s words were soft and hard. If she didn''t know the phase again, I''m afraid she would be unhappy with empress changsun.


    "What the queen said is very!" Princess Wei smiled awkwardly.


    In the harem, no one dared to offend the majesty of empress Chang sun, and all the concubines agreed. When Zheng Chonghua bowed his head at the end of the row, her eyes couldn''t help showing a trace of envy. If she had the majesty of empress Chang sun, who would dare to disrespect her in the harem.


    "Let''s have a banquet!" Li Shimin naturally didn''t care about these little things and waved his hand.


    "Yes!" said pound immediately.


    Soon, everyone took their seats, and tables of delicacies and delicacies were brought up, including plates of green vegetables.


    "This was originally a summer thing. How could it appear again!" Wei Fei exclaimed, pointing to cucumbers and beans.


    "Ha ha!" Li Shimin laughed loudly and explained the glass greenhouse and out of season vegetables again.


    The women who have been in the harem for a long time have never seen such magical things. They can''t help but be amazed. Zheng Chonghua''s low head can''t help showing a trace of longing and regret.


    Yang Fei smiled and said, "my concubine was worried about suffering after Changle married. Now it seems that my concubine is worried. Therefore, in the glass greenhouse, I''m afraid Changle can''t pour anything she wants."


    On one side of the table were all princesses. Naturally, the first one was the legitimate Princess Changle. When she heard the speech, her face turned red with shame. Although she and Merton had been engaged, how could they not be shy when they were mentioned in public.


    Empress Chang sun could not help sighing: "in the twinkling of an eye, Changle has been sixteen."


    "Empress mother!" Princess Changle blushed and said coquettishly.


    "What''s the matter with men getting married and women getting married?" the eldest grandson queen said kindly on her face.


    "My concubine was worried about the crisis in Mojia village. Marquis Mojia couldn''t get the promised bride price. With this greenhouse secret skill, my concubine was worried for nothing." Wei Guifei covered her mouth and smiled.


    Other imperial concubines also nodded. Although they didn''t value money, they also knew that the value of this greenhouse secret skill was immeasurable, which was much more valuable than the bride price promised by Merton.


    Zheng Chonghua said in his heart, "my concubine thinks that Qiancheng is the medium and Wanjin is the employment. This represents the sincerity of mohou, not really taking out these money. After all, the love between mohou and the long princess is pure, and mohou firmly opposes using money to measure marriage."


    "Oh!" they were stunned and looked at Zheng Chonghua. They also heard this view for the first time. After all, how glorious it is for them to take Qiancheng as the medium and Wanjin as the employment.


    Only Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully. If Merton wants to marry Changle with money, he can directly use the money of Mojia village, rather than earning it with his own ability.


    Of course, Merton''s contribution to the Tang Dynasty this year was far greater than the number he had promised, and he also refused the temptation from Tubo. However, Li Shimin still resents Merton''s flirting with Changle under his eyes. Naturally, he will not let Merton go easily.


    Wei Guifei was embarrassed. She just ran on Zheng Chonghua. She didn''t expect the other party to fight back so soon. Her eyes turned and said, "look at your sister, how will mohou fulfill her original promise."


    Zheng Chonghua said proudly, "if I were the Marquis of Mo, I would not prove my love with yellow and white things. Maybe I would use an ink technique that benefits all people, or a rare treasure in the western regions, or another love poem that has been handed down for thousands of years,......."


    As Zheng Chonghua said, he couldn''t help falling into longing, as if the person to be married was like her.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help looking at Zheng Chonghua. What Zheng Chonghua imagined was just what she thought in her heart. Other concubines couldn''t help nodding. This is indeed Merton''s style.


    "I didn''t expect my sister to know mohou so well!" Wei Guifei said unintentionally.


    Zheng Chong huazhan said with a smile, "which woman in the world doesn''t envy mohou and Princess Chang. My little sister heard it for a long time when she was in Xingyang. When she first saw mohou and Princess Chang Le in Furong garden, she knew that they must be a natural match."


    Zheng Chonghua admitted that she had met Merton in Furong garden and was still with Princess Changle, but no one thought much.


    Only imperial concubine Wei was dissatisfied, but on such a festive occasion, she naturally wouldn''t say anything more. She immediately talked and laughed and got on well with the people.


    The whole harem was restored to harmony immediately. It was the happiest picture in the world.

 Chapter 710

    "Uncle Qin, stay!"


    In the Qin house, Merton bowed to Mrs. Qin.


    He came to Qin''s residence to pay New Year''s greetings in person. However, Qin Qiong had already visited friends and was not at home. In addition, Merton was a younger generation and was received by Mrs. Qin in person. It was not rude.


    Mrs. Qin nodded and turned her head: "Huaiyu, go and send Merton."


    "Yes! Mother!"


    Qin Huaiyu can''t wait to rush out and accompany Merton out of the Qin house.


    "The foot ban is over! You''ve been wronged these days." Merton said gratefully.


    Qin Huaiyu waved his hand and said indifferently, "it''s over long ago. It''s just an act. How can my father punish me severely? Just those people in Luoyang, I''ve been unhappy with them for a long time. This time, I just took the opportunity to teach them a lesson."


    Merton was slightly moved and said, "anyway, it''s because of the Mohist village. I''ll write it down."


    Qin Huaiyu pretended to be angry and said, "what''s this? I''m a member of the food city. This time, the Mojia village produced out of season vegetables, and the food city must be very popular. Coupled with the best-selling of relieving thousands of worries, the Qin government still made money. If those people in Luoyang succeed, how can the Qin government have these benefits?"


    This time, Merton came to Qin''s house to pay a new year''s call. The gift he brought was off-season vegetables, which were free of charge, and was better than novelty. Mrs. Qin was immediately very satisfied. In addition, the release of crystal jieqianchou made jieqianchou stand firmly as the best wine in the world. The 5000 yuan deposit of Qin''s house can be said to have done the most cost-effective business, I couldn''t help being extremely satisfied with Merton.


    Although Qin Huaiyu said so, Merton understood that the three Qin families directly joined to solve Qianchou, which seemed to be an ordinary transaction, but it was of great practical significance. After all, the three national governments stood on Merton''s side, which made some people''s Secret actions converge a lot, which made Merton calm.


    "Well, you''re welcome, but I still have a gift for brother Qin. I hope brother Qin won''t refuse." just as they were talking, they unconsciously walked outside the Qin house.


    Merton reached out and a brand-new second-generation four-wheel carriage stopped in front of Qin Huaiyu.


    "This is..." Qin Huaiyu looked at the extremely windy carriage and the bright glass window, which made people see its purpose at a glance. He couldn''t help but look happy.


    "This is a new generation of carriage that hasn''t been sold in Mojia village. It''s the only one on Chang''an City street!" Murton whispered. Naturally, the four-wheel carriage given to Li Shimin won''t appear on Chang''an City street. Qin Huaiyu''s carriage is the only one.


    "Well, you''re still a friend!" Qin Huaiyu said with a look of ecstasy.


    Looking at the transparent glass and exquisite interior decoration, such a windy carriage walking on Zhuque Street must envy many dandies.


    Among the dandies, although they are mainly riding horses, they are pure second-class goods in winter. Especially when the warm and comfortable four-wheel carriage with exquisite appearance comes out, the riding atmosphere in Chang''an city suddenly breaks. I''m afraid that before the spring is warm and peaceful, the valiant Knights will not appear in the streets of Chang''an city.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing. Sure enough, cars and horses are men''s favorite. They are flaunted and stimulated by Qin Huaiyu and others. I believe that once the four-wheel carriage is listed, it will sell very well. Even if other cars and horses are deliberately imitated, they don''t have glass in hand and can only stare.


    After leaving the Qin house, Merton sat in a carriage and meditated. There was another reason for him to come to the Qin house this time. That is, in the face of it, Mrs. Qin was the matchmaker between Merton and Princess Changle. Although Mrs. Qin urged directly, she also revealed a news that Princess Changle was about to turn 16.


    That means that Princess Changle is about to reach the age of 16. The bride price promised by him should be realized as soon as possible. He and Princess Changle still have this last obstacle.


    Thinking of this, Merton couldn''t help showing a sweet smile, and the day was finally coming.


    "But now the most important thing is Changle''s birthday." Merton secretly said that before the Tang Dynasty, from the emperor to the people, it was no birthday, and he wanted to celebrate the first birthday of Changle princess in the history of China.


    The most important thing of birthday is the sense of ceremony. In the sense of ceremony, I''m afraid the birthday cake is an essential link.


    "Fortunately, the materials are complete, otherwise it''s really blind!" Merton congratulated himself.


    Before that, cake and cream have been made, and the next thing is easy to do! Merton''s eyes turned and suddenly thought of a good candidate.


    Zhou Yuchu from the ice cream shop.


    "Birthday cake!"


    On the second day of the new year, chef Zhou looked at Merton blankly. He also knew that he could make cream, but he was confused about the birthday cake.


    "I''ve been a cook all my life and have never made this dish." Zhou Yuchu was at a loss.


    He has been an imperial cook all his life, but he is also a clever woman. It is difficult to cook without rice. Naturally, he can''t make such a birthday cake out of nothing.


    Merton shook his head and said, "you just need to follow the gourd and draw a gourd! Now you only need to be proficient in this birthday cake in a short time!"


    Merton finished, reached out and handed Zhou Yuchu a drawing, which vividly painted the appearance and production process of a future birthday cake.


    "Hoo!" Chef Zhou Yu looked at the drawing of the birthday cake handed over by Merton and breathed a sigh of relief. It would be too simple.


    "Don''t worry, marquis Mo, you can''t miss it!" Zhou Yuchu patted his chest and promised.


    "Do it carefully! This will be another trump card of the ice cream store in the future. Who doesn''t pay attention to their birthday? Even if one of the thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty has a birthday, what a huge market it will be," Merton said.


    Zhou Yuchu''s eyes lit up immediately. For example, although the ice cream shop is the only one and makes a lot of money, after all, ice cream is the peak season only in summer, and it is not so popular in other seasons. He has long wanted to find another pillar for the ice cream shop. As soon as the birthday cake comes out, I''m afraid the ice cream shop will be full of customers.


    "Mohou Yingming!" said chef Zhou with sincere admiration,


    Everyone has a birthday, and it happens once a year. In this era, everyone attaches great importance to his birthday eight characters, but Merton adds a special meaning to this birthday eight characters. Adults may not value it, but children themselves love sweets. In addition, who doesn''t love their children, The birthday cake combines the love of adults and the love of children, which is simply the finishing touch.


    Merton immediately showed a knowing smile. He couldn''t help thinking of the scene of a group of students gathering for their birthday when he was a student. Naturally, children have to live with their families, but when they grow up, they have to live with their partners.


    However, if you want to make an appointment for Changle''s birthday, you naturally need an insider.


    Watching chef Zhou leave happily, Merton thought a little, immediately wrote a letter and ordered tie an to say, "hand over this letter to the East Palace and ask the crown prince for help!"


    "Yes!" tie took orders to leave when he settled down.


    Merton carefully recalled the birthday scenes of later generations. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he nodded. The next thing he had to do was to choose the best place for Changle''s birthday. I''m afraid there is no more suitable place than an ice cream shop.

 Chapter 711

    The seventh day of the first month is the 16th birthday of Princess Changle.


    "The child visits his mother!"


    In the Lizheng palace, Princess Changle in full dress bowed down to worship empress changsun.


    "Changle, please get up quickly. Today is your birthday!" empress changsun couldn''t help but show a loving smile and lift her arm falsely. Princess Changle is the first daughter of her and Li Shimin. Naturally, she is loved and loved by thousands.


    "Today is the child''s birthday, so the child needs to be more filial. How can the child live without the pain of her mother''s pregnancy in October?" said Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle and empress changsun have deep feelings. On her birthday every year, Princess Changle will come to the Lizheng hall to greet her. This habit has not changed for many years.


    Empress Chang sun could not help sighing: "when you were born, the world was not calm. Your father was still king of Qin and was leading the war against Wang Shichong. When your father came back, you would have a full moon. Don''t mention how happy your father was when he saw you!..."


    "Mother suffered!" Princess Changle leaned on the leg of the empress changsun.


    Empress changsun stroked the head of Princess Changle and said sadly, "I didn''t expect that in the twinkling of an eye, Changle has grown up and will get married so soon."


    Empress Chang sun also had no doubt that Merton could raise all the bride price. Changle married day by day. With the endless ink skills of the Mojia village, she was just curious about how Merton did it.


    Princess Changle was immediately ashamed and said, "if the child doesn''t marry, she will always accompany her mother."


    As she neared her sixteenth birthday, she became more and more sensitive to her marriage, especially the elders.


    Empress changsun looked at Princess Changle''s long horsetail and couldn''t help laughing. Maybe Princess Changle didn''t find out that she is now more and more like a woman in Mohist village.


    Princess Changle and empress changsun talked for a while and heard Gong e''s message that the prince asked for an audience.


    "See the queen mother!"


    After a while, Li Chengqian came in, bowed down, looked up and saw Princess Changle, showing a sure look and said, "here''s Changle!"


    The eldest grandson queen smiled and said, "is it possible that Gao Ming didn''t come to find her mother today?"


    "Naturally, I came to see my mother, but today is Changle''s birthday. I guess Changle will come to my mother today." Li Chengqian explained.


    It was not long before Li Chengqian came. Soon, Li Tai, Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang all came without pulling.


    Several people are close brothers and sisters, and they grew up together. They are naturally happy and laughing together. The eldest Sun Queen on one side can''t help showing a trace of comfort when she sees this situation.


    After a while, Li Chengqian suddenly got up and said, "after returning to his mother, today is Changle''s birthday. Changle has been in the palace recently and hasn''t gone out. It''s always boring. It''s better to let the child take Changle out of the palace."


    "Yes, last time we went out of the palace, sister Changle didn''t go. Naturally, we wanted to go out of the palace." Li Zhi shouted repeatedly. He was young and had few opportunities to go out of the palace. Last time he went to Mojia village was an eye opener. Now how can he sit still when he heard of going out of the palace.


    Li Tai and Princess Jinyang also agreed. After all, the last time they went out of the palace, only Changle didn''t go. Today is Princess Changle''s birthday. It''s a good reason to go out of the palace.


    Changle couldn''t help but feel a move in her heart. She was tired of staying in the palace for a long time. It was excellent to go out of the palace with her brothers.


    "Well, go early and return early!"


    The eldest grandson empress naturally agreed. Their brothers and sisters are so harmonious. Isn''t it what she is looking forward to.


    "Out of the palace!"


    Li Zhi jumped up excitedly. I''m afraid he''s the most positive person in the palace.


    "Thank you, empress mother!" Li Chengqian bowed.


    Princess Changle walked out of the legislative hall with Li Chengqian and others, but found that Li Chengqian had arranged plainclothes guards. Although she was confused, she didn''t doubt anything!


    After the carriage left the palace, it went all the way to Dongshi, and finally stopped at the door of the ice cream shop in Dongshi. Princess Changle was puzzled and looked at Li Chengqian.


    "Prince brother, how did you come here!" Princess Changle asked involuntarily.


    "Sister Changle can tell at a glance." Li Chengqian smiled mysteriously, pointing to the ice cream shop covered with red silk.


    Princess Changle was confused. She couldn''t help looking at her brothers and sisters, but saw Li Tai''s evasive eyes intentionally or unintentionally. She suddenly understood that she was probably in the dark about this matter today.


    "Young slave, tell your sister what''s going on!" Princess Changle said gently.


    Li Zhi shook his head and said, "I don''t know. Don''t ask me, sister."


    Li Zhi then retreated again and again. He couldn''t help looking at Li Chengqian aside. He was just trying to cover up.


    Changle couldn''t help staring at Li Chengqian and turned his eyes to the youngest princess Jinyang.


    Before Changle spoke, Princess Jinyang immediately covered her mouth in horror and said in a muffled voice, "Yuzi doesn''t know!"


    "A group of traitors!" Changle said bitterly.


    The brothers and sisters immediately smiled with a complacent expression.


    At this moment, the red silk fell suddenly, and the newly decorated ice cream shop suddenly appeared in front of Princess Changle. The four big characters at the top came into view.


    "Happy Birthday!"


    "Ah!"


    Princess Changle was surprised to cover her mouth and looked at the scene in front of her. What moved her more was a familiar figure standing in front of the ice cream shop.


    "Happy birthday, Changle!" Murton said softly.


    "You..." Princess Changle couldn''t help looking at Li Chengqian and Merton. Unexpectedly, they arranged these with Merton.


    Li Chengqian said with a smile, "Merton learned that today is your birthday, so he specially asked us to arrange this birthday party without telling you."


    "It''s just a birthday, nothing. Changle has asked her mother to say hello." Princess Changle wondered.


    Merton explained: "birthday is not only the day of mother''s suffering, but also the day of life''s birth. It is also a very meaningful day for a person, and we can understand birthday as a festival, and it is an exclusive one."


    "A festival for only one person!" Li Chengqian and others suddenly brightened up. This explanation is really very comfortable, and suddenly raised the meaning of birthday a lot.


    Li Tai even praised the festival: "birthdays under the age of 40 are called" life ", and those beyond this limit are called" longevity ". Since the elderly can celebrate their birthdays, young people can celebrate their birthdays naturally."


    There are many children in the imperial palace. On weekdays, there are few opportunities to see Li Shimin and his parents. Wouldn''t it be a great blessing to be able to reunite with his father, emperor and mother for one day with the help of his birthday.


    Princess Changle was extremely moved. She never had a birthday. She always went to the empress changsun to greet her. As usual, she never thought it would have such significance.


    Merton nodded with a smile and asked Princess Changle to enter. He said softly, "today is your birthday and the first birthday in the world."

 Chapter 712

    "Wow!"


    Now the door of the ice cream shop suddenly opens, revealing its unique layout. All kinds of colored silk were everywhere in the hall, which caused Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang to scream again and again.


    Merton smiled and looked at Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang. As expected, the birthday party was very attractive to children.


    "This is the birthday party?" Li Chengqian said strangely.


    He has seen all kinds of birthday scenes, but he has never seen a birthday party. Looking at the room full of colored silk is like a fairy tale.


    Merton naturally nodded and said, "the old man has his own etiquette for celebrating his birthday, but young people naturally have etiquette. Unlike the solemnity of the old, we should naturally be lively."


    Li Chengqian looked at the colorful satins in the room and couldn''t help getting goose bumps. However, looking at Changle full of little stars and the jubilant Li Zhi and Jinyang princess, he couldn''t help admiring Merton''s vision.


    "This is the birthday?" when Changle was moved, he turned and asked, is it just to see these colored silks for his birthday?


    Merton laughed and said, "how is that possible? The old people have longevity noodles for birthday celebrations, and they naturally have their own delicious food for birthdays."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, chef Zhou Yuchu came out of the back kitchen with a cake in his hand, respectfully put it on the table in the store and said, "Happy Birthday to the princess. This is the birthday cake designed by mohou himself."


    "Birthday cake!"


    It was the first time they saw the birthday cake. They saw that the birthday cake in front of them had three layers, which were covered with cream and carved with various patterns. The top layer was engraved with happy birthday to Princess Changle.


    "How delicious! It must be delicious!" Lizhi couldn''t wait to come over and said with an intoxicated face.


    "Don''t panic, there''s another link?" Merton hurriedly pulled the impatient Lizhi back, conveniently inserted several small candles on the birthday cake and lit them one by one with a fire fold,


    In an instant, the whole room was extraordinarily warm under the candlelight, and at the moment, a unique song suddenly sounded.


    "Happy Birthday to you! Happy birthday to you!"


    Wu Meiniang came out of the kitchen with a candle in her hand. She repeated a lyric in her mouth, but it was graceful and beautiful.


    "Happy Birthday to you!..."


    The birthday song is simple and easy to sing, and everyone agrees to sing. Although the song is simple and the lyrics are only one sentence, it is like the sound of nature in Changle''s ears.


    She has lived in the palace for many years and has seen many large-scale songs and dances in the palace, but it is very different from the one word birthday song in front of her.


    "Is this your disciple?" Changle looked at Merton.


    "It''s a bad man!" Merton said proudly.


    "Meiniang wishes the princess a happy birthday!" Wu Meiniang said playfully.


    Changle immediately smiled and said, "I''m also a miserable man. If someone is bullying you, I''ll take it out on you."


    Merton naturally knew such important things as accepting disciples, and he naturally knew Wu Meiniang''s life experience very well.


    "Thank you, Shiniang!" Wu Meiniang climbed up the pole.


    Changle looked at Merton angrily and said, "they are all good disciples you taught."


    Morton smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the topic and said, "you''d better blow out the candles and make a wish! It''s said that making a wish on your birthday is a special spirit, and you can certainly achieve what you want."


    Princess Changle naturally knew that this was Merton''s nonsense, but she obediently made a wish and blew out the candle.


    "Oh, you can eat cake!" Li Zhi, who had been waiting for him for a long time, cheered. Princess Jinyang was also eager to try.


    However, looking at the cake full of cream, they were salivating, but the expression of nowhere to start immediately made everyone happy.


    "You should cut the cake to eat." Merton picked up a wooden knife and personally demonstrated how to cut a corner of the cake. First, give one to the birthday princess Changle, and then give one to Princess Jinyang and Lizhi, and then each one.


    But when giving it to Li Chengqian, he accidentally made his face and instantly triggered a cake war.


    "Merton, how dare you bully the crown prince!" Li Chengqian roared and fought back.


    "Don''t wipe my face!" Princess Changle screamed.


    "Li Zhi, how dare you attack me!" Li Tai roared.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone was in a mess, and everyone had white cream on his face.


    "It''s Merton''s fault!" they shouted in unison.


    "It''s not fair. You''re all a gang." Merton resisted loudly, but in vain. He was directly painted into a big painted face.


    After a long time, the people stopped. Looking at each other''s big face, clothes and hair are cakes, they couldn''t help laughing. The previous rituals didn''t have the fun of brothers and sisters.


    "It''s delicious!" Princess Jinyang took the last bite of the cake and said reluctantly. She was the youngest. The cake war did not affect her. Only her cake could be preserved.


    "It''s all your fault. You ruined my cake!"


    Li Zhi didn''t follow the way. Before he had a bite, the cake war had begun. He didn''t have time to taste it at all.


    "I have another piece here. Here you are!"


    Wu Meiniang wisely handed her hidden cake to Li Zhi. Li Zhi impolitely took a big bite and ate it.


    Merton was relieved when he saw this scene.


    "Birthday party, birthday cake, birthday song. Brother Mo is really talented. From then on, birthday will certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty." Li Chengqian praised, and even he couldn''t help but have the impulse to celebrate his birthday.


    As for Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang, I''m afraid an annual birthday party will be essential in the future.


    "This is human nature. Relatives take this opportunity to reunite and live in harmony. I''m afraid no one will refuse." Li Tai echoed.


    Merton nodded: "I am my parents who died early. I miss my parents every birthday. I fantasize about how happy it should be to reunite my parents. That''s the idea of a birthday party."


    Everyone nodded silently.


    "When you marry your sister, you''ll have a family!" Li Zhi said in a muffled voice after swallowing the cake. He really enjoyed himself today and rarely said a good word for Merton.


    "So many cakes can''t block your mouth." Changle glared at Li Zhi.


    Li Zhi made a face at Changle, turned to Merton and said, "Merton, I''ve helped you a lot. Should you repay us?"


    Merton naturally nodded without hesitation and said, "I don''t know what your Highness the king of Jin wants in return."


    Li Zhi looked up at the story on the wall of the ice cream shop and said, "why don''t you tell me another story? I''ve heard it hundreds of times."


    "OK, I want to listen to the story!" Jinyang Princess immediately cheered.


    There were no entertainment programs in Datang. As soon as the snow and ice adventure came out, it was immediately welcomed by all children. However, no matter how good the story is, it has been heard hundreds of times. Naturally, I am tired of hearing it. It happens that the original author is here. How can Li Zhi miss this opportunity.


    Li Chengqian sighed in his heart. Li Zhi didn''t know how valuable Merton''s promise was. Perhaps it was a valuable ink technique, or it could be a secret to solve the vicissitudes of the sea. However, he didn''t know that a good fairy tale was the most precious in the child''s heart.


    Merton looked at Changle, whose skin was better than snow, and said in his heart, "the protagonist of the story I told today is also a princess, named Snow White."

 Chapter 713

    "... after the queen gave birth to her daughter, she named him snow white, and soon the queen died." Merton carefully recalled the content of snow white and spoke with both voice and emotion.


    "Hey!"


    Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang sighed sadly when they heard what had happened to snow white. Compared with snow white, they were very lucky.


    "Snow White also has a father. She must like her very much." Princess Changle looked at their disappointed expression and hurriedly comforted them.


    "A year later, the king married a new wife, very beautiful..." Merton then said, and his back cooled. Princess Changle despised her with murderous eyes.


    Merton smiled awkwardly. He didn''t mean to tear down the stage, but that''s the story, so he had to go on:


    "The new queen has a magic mirror. Every morning she asks," magic mirror, sunglasses, who is the most beautiful woman in the world? "The mirror always answers," of course it''s you! My queen. "


    The new queen was very happy because the magic mirror never lied until Snow White was seven years old. When the queen asked him about the mirror again, it replied, "my queen, you are naturally the most beautiful here, but Snow White is a thousand times more beautiful than you."


    "I knew Snow White was the most beautiful." Li Zhi cheered excitedly.


    "What a magic mirror! She also wants such a magic mirror!" Princess Jinyang longed. She was not young and gradually had a heart for beauty. Even Princess Changle on one side couldn''t help nodding. Who doesn''t want to have such a magic mirror?


    "Magic mirror!"


    Merton''s heart moved, suddenly rose, and couldn''t help walking back and forth.


    "What''s wrong with Merton!" Princess Changle saw Merton suddenly stand up and keep giggling, and couldn''t help worrying.


    Merton looked up at the sky and sighed with pride: "ha ha, I finally found the best thing for the bride price."


    "Ah!" Princess Changle immediately blushed and said, "do you still mention this at this time?"


    "What''s the best thing so valuable!" Li Tai couldn''t help but wonder. You know, Merton promised a bride price of thousands of times and tens of thousands of gold, which can''t be done simply.


    Merton said proudly, "a magic mirror that can shine on the most beautiful woman in the world!"


    "Magic mirror?" everyone looked at each other. Didn''t he just tell a fairy tale? Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang believe it. Naturally, they don''t believe it. Can they really create a mirror that doesn''t lie and can talk.


    Merton smiled but said nothing. Although Datang also has mirrors, most of them are copper mirrors, which are expensive. It''s not satisfactory to take photos of people. Now he has flat glass. On this basis, it is not natural for him to make common mirrors in later generations.


    What a shock it will be when a mirror that will show people''s face in autumn appears in front of the world. When people clearly see their true face for the first time in the mirror, there can be no trace of falsehood, is it not a magic mirror that does not lie and can speak?


    As Zheng Chonghua said, Merton will not defile his love with gold and silver. However, an unprecedented magical mirror is precious and can represent his heart.


    "Can you really make such a magic mirror?" Li Chengqian wondered.


    Merton solemnly nodded, looked at Princess Changle and said softly, "in five days, I will go to the palace with the bride price!"


    "Asking for a marriage!" the crowd was stunned and immediately calmed down. Their eyes kept going back and forth in front of Princess Changle and Merton.


    Princess Changle was stunned when she heard the speech, and suddenly reacted. Her face flushed to her neck.


    "Ah! I''ll go back to the Palace first!"


    Hearing the speech, Princess Changle could no longer sit still. She got up and left with a blush. She just opened up again. When Merton said to her face that she would go to the palace to ask for a marriage in five days, she couldn''t stay any longer, so she left quickly.


    Princess Changle got up and left in a hurry. Naturally, Chengqian couldn''t sit down. She got up immediately and was ready to leave.


    "Ah! Snow White hasn''t finished yet?" said Princess Jinyang reluctantly. For him, such a beautiful fairy tale is more valuable than anything.


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, son. I''ll write a complete story later and send it to the palace. I won''t let you down."


    "All right!" Princess Jinyang nodded wisely.


    "I haven''t eaten enough delicious cake yet!" Li Zhi touched his fat belly and salivated.


    Zhou Yuchu, who had been waiting for him for a long time, said: "don''t worry, your highness king of Jin. The villain has already prepared a new cake. Your highness can taste it slowly when he returns to the palace.


    "I also want to bring one for my father and mother." Princess Jinyang hurriedly said.


    "Good! Good! There are all of them. There are a lot of villains prepared." Chef Zhou even said that the birthday cake was so successful, which actually surprised him. Even the prince and Princess loved it, not to mention ordinary teenagers. Once it was launched, it must be popular in Chang''an city.


    Li Tai on one side heard the speech and immediately said, "give me a share, too."


    The reason why he is so fat is that he can''t control his mouth and get such a delicious cake.


    After Li Tai said that, he thought of Merton''s statement of controlling his mouth and opening his legs. He was embarrassed and said, "I''ll practice for half an hour when I go back, but brother Mo, I''m looking forward to how magical your magic mirror is."


    At the end, Li Chengqian whispered, "you''d better be able to make it, otherwise, you''ll wait!"


    Merton laughed and didn''t take the threat of sister protector Li Chengqian seriously. He also whispered, "just wait to be brother-in-law!"


    Hearing the speech, Li Chengqian suddenly snorted and brushed his sleeve to leave. For ink technology, Merton has never missed. Since Merton said so, I''m afraid it''s a foregone conclusion in five days. His uncle should be settled.


    In front of the ice cream shop, Merton was relieved to see the carriages leave. Now all he needs is to make a mirror in these five days.


    "Let''s go too!" Merton waved and took Wu Meiniang away. Now he doesn''t have much time, so he naturally has to race against time.


    When the crowd left, chef Zhou went out of the hall at ease. A waiter immediately shouted, "the ice cream shop has launched a new birthday cake. Welcome to taste it for free!"


    The unique shape of the ice cream shop has already attracted the attention of interested people. As soon as I heard the cry of the waiter, many people immediately gathered. People in ice cream shops are naturally no strangers. It is a rare enjoyment to eat delicious ice cream in summer, but in winter, the attraction of ice cream to people has naturally been reduced to the lowest.


    "Free taste?" when they heard the free taste, they couldn''t help but move in their hearts and came forward one after another.


    "Is it really free to taste?" a common people dare not buy a channel.


    "That''s natural, but we''ll wait, but he''s innocent." Chef Zhou stood in front of the ice cream shop and cut a large birthday cake into small pieces for everyone to taste for free. At the same time, he loudly publicized the meaning of birthday and the process of birthday party. The concept of birthday appeared in Datang for the first time, which immediately aroused many people''s ideas.


    "Delicious!"


    After tasting one piece, many people were immediately conquered by the delicious birthday cake, and were also excited about the significance of the birthday party. After all, in any era, the love of any parents is the same as that of their children. There are many rich people in Chang''an city. If we can take this opportunity, it is also meaningful to have a happy birthday together.


    "How do you sell this birthday cake?" many people inquired. Such delicious food must be valuable.


    Seeing the high intention of the people, Zhou Yuchu couldn''t help smiling and said in a loud voice, "anyone who orders a birthday cake in our store in the first month can enjoy a half price discount. If you want to buy it quickly, you can get it first come, first served."


    "Half price?" the crowd suddenly jumped.


    Zhou Yuchu smiled proudly and said, "ice cream shops don''t make money at half price. However, birthday parties and birthday cakes are new things. Only in this way can we open the market and attract customers.


    There are twelve months in a year. I''m afraid one of the twelve people who have a birthday in the first month. Many people who taste delicious cakes can''t help but feel excited. Half price cakes can be said to be very preferential. In addition, if there are children at home approaching their birthday, I''m afraid this gift is more meaningful than anything.


    Soon, many people were excited and asked. After all, there were not many birthdays in the first month. Even two citizens who had children''s birthdays bought two birthday cakes directly on the spot. Many families who had two birthdays placed orders one after another.


    However, most people just wait and see. First, although the birthday cake is half price, it is still not cheap. Second, many families do not have children for today''s birthday, even if they are excited, they will not buy it immediately.


    Seeing less than ten orders in his hand, chef Zhou couldn''t help showing a confident smile. Children will show off most. Once a child has a birthday, it will certainly spread around. He believes that these ten orders are only the beginning. Over time, birthday cakes and birthday parties will certainly be popular in Chang''an City.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Stop!"


    In the Imperial Palace, with a severe reprimand, several cautious figures were suddenly fixed.


    The stern looking empress Li Shimin''s eldest grandson strode along with her. She couldn''t believe looking at her brothers and sisters in front of her.


    "You are......!" Li Shimin couldn''t believe it. Seeing that his filial son and good daughter had only gone out of the palace, they turned into a mess and came back.


    "Clever! What''s going on?" empress Chang Sun said sternly to Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian took the lead in proposing to leave the palace today. Now that she is so embarrassed to come back, she naturally wants to find Li Chengqian''s responsibility.


    "It''s a birthday cake smeared on it. It''s no big deal," Li Chengqian explained.


    "Birthday cake?" Li Shimin and empress Chang sun looked at each other.


    "Merton gave his sister a birthday party and made a birthday cake. This is the cake I brought back to my father and mother. It''s delicious." Princess Jinyang said with a treasure on her face.


    "We also sang birthday songs! Merton also told stories..." Li Zhi was unwilling to fall behind.


    Soon, Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang talked about the course of their trip, and identified each other''s bad behavior of touching the cake.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Li Shimin immediately gnashed his teeth. He knew that his good child would become a person as soon as he was with Mozi.


    "By the way! Where''s Changle? Didn''t she go out with you?" empress changsun suddenly found out that today''s protagonist was not here, so she couldn''t help wondering.


    "Merton said he would propose marriage in five days, and his sister has come back first." Li Zhi couldn''t hide his words and said directly.


    "Come to propose marriage in five days?" Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were surprised and looked at each other.


    "So, Merton has found a way to solve the bride price!" empress Chang Sun said in her heart. Changle has reached the age of marriage for several years. Now Changle has reached the age of marriage. Empress Chang sun naturally worries about the marriage of Lord Changle.


    "Hmm!" the four nodded solemnly.


    "Chengqian, tell me all about this trip in detail!" Li Shimin said with a frozen face.


    "Yes! Father!" Li Chengqian suddenly looked bitter, but finally had to tell the whole story.


    When they heard that Merton had made great efforts to prepare for Princess Changle''s birthday party, Li Shimin and empress changsun looked a little slower.


    "Magic mirror?" the eldest grandson queen wondered, "is Merton''s bride price such a magic mirror!"


    Chengqian shook his head and said, "the magic mirror is just Merton''s fictional fairy tale. Naturally, it can''t be true, but Merton''s bride price must be a mirror."


    Li Shimin sneered: "there are many bronze mirrors in the Imperial Palace, but he still needs a mirror!"


    If Merton really took out a mirror, I''m afraid he would laugh off his big teeth. Not only Changle became a laughing stock, but also the reputation of the whole royal family.


    "I don''t know, but seeing Merton''s self-confidence, I think this mirror must be unique." Li Chengqian said.


    Li Shimin thought that if he were someone else, he would not believe that any mirror is so precious. However, for the Mohist family who has repeatedly turned corruption into magic, he just feels that it is incredible and has to think twice. After all, there are too many incredible things in Merton''s hands.


    "Then I''ll wait for him for five days. If he can''t make it, don''t blame my men for being ruthless and treating him for bullying the king." Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Well, well, Merton is not a person without a target." empress changsun gently advised. Merton''s various magical performances are ahead of Zhuyu, and empress changsun naturally has some confidence in it.


    "You guys don''t go to freshen up!" Li Shimin angrily scolded.


    Suddenly, Li Chengqian was like birds and animals scattered, and he didn''t forget to leave noisily along the way.


    "These careless children!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    The eldest sun empress looked at the backs of several people and showed a thoughtful expression. She keenly found that after the birthday party, the feelings of their brothers and sisters were obviously much closer.

 Chapter 714

    Empress Chang sun watched her brothers and sisters leave. Then she asked Li Shimin for instructions and said, "my concubine, I''m going to see Changle now."


    Li Shimin nodded sadly. If there was no accident, the flower he worked hard to raise would be carried away by the smelly boy Merton.


    In the palace of Changle, in the boudoir of Princess Changle, Changle, who had already been groomed and dressed, sat on the dresser and looked at his beautiful face in the bronze mirror. For a while, he blushed and smiled sweetly. Obviously, it was sweet and shy to recall today''s events.


    Empress Chang sun waved Gong e back and quietly entered Changle''s boudoir.


    "Our Changle has grown up! We are getting married."


    Empress changsun walked forward slowly, picked up the comb and gently combed it on Changle''s beautiful hair.


    "Mother!"


    Changle looked at the bronze mirror and the figure of empress changsun snuggled up in her mother''s arms.


    "The empress mother believed that Merton could make magic mirrors?" Changle looked up curiously at the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang Sun said positively, "in other places, Merton may lie and make mistakes, but on the bride price, Merton will certainly not talk casually."


    "Empress mother, do you think there is a magic mirror in the world?" Princess Changle couldn''t help but look forward to saying, which woman in the world doesn''t want to have such a magic mirror.


    "If there is a magic mirror, it''s my Changle who deserves it, and my Changle princess is the most beautiful woman in the world." empress changsun hugged the Changle princess in her arms and said softly.


    Princess Changle immediately said with a shy face, "Changle can''t compare with her mother. In Changle''s heart, her mother is the most beautiful."


    In the Changle palace, the mother and daughter talk about themselves, because they both know that there are probably fewer and fewer days like today,


    On the streets of Chang''an city.


    On a new carriage, Wu Meiniang looked at Merton with a thoughtful face and wanted to stop talking.


    "Ask what you want!" Merton said helplessly.


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t wait and said, "master, is there really a magic mirror in the world?"


    It''s not just Princess Changle. I''m afraid no woman in the world doesn''t want to have such a mirror. Although Wu Meiniang is only ten years old, she already has a love for beauty.


    Merton explained: "the so-called mirror is just the optical reaction of Mohism. You can read the chapter of the second chapter of the Mojing."


    "Jiantuan Jingyi."


    "Jing Buqian said he was changing to!"


    "Live in Jinger, say again."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Wu Meiniang immediately nodded and recited the eight pieces of ink Sutra one by one.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction and said, "as a teacher, I have been besieging the city to teach you a lesson because Mohism is based on the shoulders of our ancestors. If you want to learn Mohism, you must have a solid foundation, accumulate thick and thin hair, otherwise everything is just a castle in the air."


    "Castles in the air?" Wu Meiniang nodded.


    Merton then said, "with the wisdom and knowledge of our predecessors, it is the foundation. Our Mohist children are using this knowledge to solve all kinds of phenomena in the world. The ultimate way of Mohism is to use unsolved mysteries for themselves."


    Wu Meiniang said thoughtfully, "master, it means that the opportunity of Mohism is in the signs between heaven and earth."


    "That''s nature. How can Mohism create things behind closed doors and out of thin air!" Merton nodded.


    Wu Mei Niang refused: "but how can there really be a talking magic mirror in this world?"


    Merton shook his head and smiled. He said, "do you know the principle of a mirror?"


    "Students think that the principle of mirror is that light reflects the shadow in the mirror." Wu Meiniang replied.


    Merton nodded and said, "my teacher calls this phenomenon reflection. You can think about where you can see yourself on weekdays."


    "Students usually comb their hair with bronze mirrors. When they wash in the basin in the morning, they have seen their own figure. Sometimes they can see their figure on the smooth sword,......" Wu Meiniang thought and said what she knew one by one.


    Merton nodded, looked out of the window and said, "Tie''an, stop!"


    "Yes, young master!" said Tie''an, and the carriage stopped slowly.


    "Get out of the car!" said Merton.


    After Wu Meiniang got off the bus, she found that the carriage had unknowingly been in front of a small river bridge in Chang''an city. The teachers and disciples walked to the bridge. Merton pointed to the bridge and said, "what about now?"


    When Wu Meiniang looked, she saw an arch bridge reflected on the water under the bridge, and the figures of the two people on the bridge were clearly visible.


    "If you look at the calm water as a mirror, you will suddenly see the light," Merton Lang said.


    "Taking water as a mirror?"


    Wu Meiniang raised her head and looked from the bridge. On the calm river, the shadows of trees on both sides of the river were reflected. The blue sky and white clouds were clearly visible, which could be much clearer than in a bronze mirror.


    Merton recalled: "when I was a teacher on the expedition to Tuyuhun, I once saw a magical place, Chaka Salt Lake, where the lake was clear and calm as a mirror, and the whole sky was reflected. It''s not too much to call it the land of the sky."


    "But the water can only be placed horizontally, and only the deeper water can reflect the clearest image." Wu Meiniang frowned and thought about the cableway, and suddenly realized, "yes, water is colorless and transparent, and my Mohist glass has the same effect. The master must want to use glass as a mirror!"


    Merton couldn''t help looking at Wu Meiniang with appreciation. This wisdom alone was enough to be his disciple. At present, he admitted without hesitation: "yes, being a teacher is preparing to use glass as a mirror!"


    "But I''ve seen the glass, and I can''t see my figure at all?" Wu Meiniang didn''t understand.


    Merton smiled without saying anything. Instead, he pointed to the river and said, "why can the river reflect people?"


    Wu Meiniang blurted out without thinking: "because there is a river bottom!"


    Wu Meiniang was stunned when she said that she was suddenly struck by lightning. The river was like a mirror. On the one hand, there was a calm water surface and a deep bottomless river bottom. If there was something similar to the river bottom on the bottom of the transparent glass, wouldn''t it create a really clear mirror.


    "You can understand the meaning of ink technology now," Merton said.


    Wu Mei Niang nodded silently, bowed and said, "thank you for your teaching."


    Although Merton didn''t teach him a word of the Mojing, today''s class opened a new door for her. It turned out that the knowledge of the Mohists was hidden in what they usually see. "


    "Then I''ll give you the first lesson. I''ll make a mirror out of glass within five days. All the resources of Mojia village can be deployed with you. After five days, I''ll check it myself." Merton solemnly said.


    "Ah!" Wu Meiniang looked at Merton with surprise and worry, "but I''m afraid to delay the master''s marriage!"


    Merton was angry and said with a smile, "the mirror for the teacher will be made by himself. How can you help!"


    Wu Mei Niang was embarrassed and put out her tongue. She hurriedly said, "yes, master, I will go all out and won''t let master down!"

 Chapter 715

    Mo Fu Zhong


    With Merton''s order, flat glass was sent to the Mohist house. Merton needed to make mirrors as a bride price. Naturally, the Mohist village should give full support. All the glass sent were the best glass in the Mohist village.


    "No! None of these are qualified."


    Merton looked at the pieces and shook his head helplessly.


    These glasses seem smooth and transparent, but due to poor workmanship and uneven surface, they are naturally unimpeded as greenhouse glass. However, there is still a big gap in using these glasses to make mirrors. He doesn''t want to make the mirror face distorted. I''m afraid what can only backfire.


    "It is particularly important that the glass I want is not only smooth, but also as flat as the water on both sides," Merton asked.


    "Yes! Young master, I''ll let the Mojia village make it immediately!" Fubo said urgently. He knew that Merton was going to make a glass mirror as a bride price to marry Princess Changle. How could he be careless and prepare to have these glasses carried away.


    "You don''t have to carry it away. You can practice with these glasses first, or you can be skilled in the process of making mirrors." Merton waved to stop Fubo. As long as the process of making mirrors is completed, once the smooth and flat glass is made in Mojia village, you can make a perfect mirror in a short time.


    He only knows about the process of making mirrors in future generations, and further experiments are needed to improve the process.


    "Young master, don''t worry. The Mojia village will certainly not delay the young master''s affairs." Fubo promised. Now Merton is one of the few unmarried teenagers left in the Mojia village. I''m afraid everyone will go all out for Merton''s marriage.


    Merton nodded and said to Wu Meiniang, "you take half of the glass. If you need anything, you can talk to Fubo."


    "Yes, master!" Wu Meiniang was eager to try, looking like she couldn''t wait.


    She had a hunch that once the mirror in the master''s mouth came out, it would be amazing. How could she not be excited if she was lucky to participate in it, and she had long been longing for the famous ink technology.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang and couldn''t help smiling. The road of Mohism is not only fun, but also an endless road of trial and error. That is an extremely boring experience, which is the only way for every Mohist.


    Wu Meiniang happily asked people to move the glass to the backyard and start her own mirror making road.


    "Add a bottom to the glass?"


    In the backyard, Wu Meiniang kept experimenting with all kinds of objects with a piece of flat glass.


    "Paper, iron, wood,..."


    However, it is of no use at all. You can clearly see the objects on the back through the glass, not even a personal image, let alone a mirror.


    However, Wu Meiniang was not discouraged. She had just come into contact with ink technology with great enthusiasm and kept experimenting with every possible object.


    The whole ink house saw Wu Meiniang, who was like a mania, experimenting all over the ink house. She even went to the water tank in the kitchen and the swimming pool in the backyard for half an hour, and then experimented all the time.


    People can''t help but show a worried look. Wu Meiniang is in her childhood. She is very clever and intelligent, and is deeply loved by the people in the ink house. Now, how can people not be distressed to see a lovely little girl suddenly turn into a science madman.


    "Young master, it''s true. Meiniang hasn''t paid attention to me for two days now!" Ziyi said discontentedly.


    "Mei Niang is still young. Is the burden given to her by the young master too heavy?" aunt Xu worried.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone in the ink house looked at Wu Meiniang who was constantly trying and making mistakes. No matter who tried, it was useless. The only thing they could help Wu Meiniang was to provide her with more materials as much as possible.


    After a busy day, night fell.


    Wu Meiniang was tired and panting and fell on the bed. The purple clothes on one side asked anxiously, "don''t you have a clue?"


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "no, not even bronze mirrors, let alone people''s hair."


    "By the way, bronze mirror? Why don''t I use bronze mirror as the bottom?" Wu Meiniang suddenly thought of this idea, jumped up, picked up the bronze mirror from the dresser and ran out, but she soon came back decadent.


    "What''s the matter?" Ziyi asked curiously.


    "Still not?" said Wu Meiniang with a depressed face. By the way, she put the glass and copper mirror in her hand back on the dresser.


    "Is this road not feasible? How deep is the river bottom, our glass is thick:" Ziyi frowned.


    Wu Meiniang could not help shaking in her heart. What Ziyi said was not unreasonable. Suddenly she looked up and saw her face clearly reflected on the plane glass in the candlelight.


    "This..."


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t believe it. She got up and looked at her clear face in the glass. The clarity in the mirror was much better than the fuzzy image in the copper mirror.


    "This is what the young master said about the mirror?" Ziyi came up and couldn''t believe looking at the glass reflection in the candlelight?


    "Shifu is really right, but I didn''t find the right thing at the bottom!" Wu Meiniang said firmly. She began to fight high spirited, got out of bed and started a new round of experiment.


    For the whole three days, Wu Meiniang only slept for five hours, and the rest of the time was intoxicated with the experiment. However, everything was futile and failed again and again. If it were not for the clear image support of the glass reflection at night, Wu Meiniang''s confidence would have been defeated.


    "What you need now is rest!" Merton quietly appeared beside Wu Meiniang, looked at her red eyes and sighed.


    "The disciple is incompetent and has failed hundreds of times. She is ashamed of the teacher''s instruction." Wu Meiniang couldn''t help but bow her head and cry. Merton had told her the principle of the mirror, but she just followed the diagram and achieved nothing.


    Merton couldn''t help comforting: "no, I think you didn''t fail hundreds of times, but successfully found hundreds of materials that are not suitable for mirrors."


    Although Merton imitates the famous sayings of later generations, it is very suitable for Wu Meiniang at the moment. He has an open life, and Wu Meiniang is practicing the concept of Mohism step by step.


    "Really?"


    Wu Meiniang burst into tears and smiled, clearing away her previous depression.


    "Of course!" Merton said solemnly.


    "You are worthy of being the person who wrote the" teacher''s theory ". With this sentence alone, you are worthy of being a teacher." Master Li couldn''t help sighing.


    In the Mo mansion, Wu Meiniang''s crazy behavior has already alerted too many people. Even master Li couldn''t help coming to watch. Hearing Merton''s words, he couldn''t help looking at Merton differently.


    For a long time, Merton was less than the year of his weak crown, but he opened a mountain and taught disciples for the Mohist school. I don''t know how many people laughed at him behind his back. If today''s story is spread, I''m afraid all previous doubts will be wiped out.


    Merton saw that Wu Meiniang''s mind was stable and secretly motioned to Fubo.


    Faberton came over with a kind face and said, "it''s just that today is the day when the ink house distributes the regular money. This is your silver money, Meiniang."


    Wu Meiniang was flattered and said, "I still have money?"


    The purple clothes on one side proudly said, "that''s nature. Everyone in the ink house has it."


    However, Master Li''s eyes flashed. He was very familiar with the ink house, but he clearly knew that the day when the ink house distributed the regular money was not today. I''m afraid the only thing that changed the ink house was Wu Meiniang in front of him.


    "Is money the key?"


    Thinking of this, Master Li couldn''t help looking at the money in Wu Meiniang''s hand.


    The craftsmanship of the Mohist school is unique. The money distributed by the Mohist school is forged again with the Mohist technology, and the surface is as smooth as a mirror.


    Wu Meiniang picked up the silver money in her hand and subconsciously pasted the smooth silver money on the glass. Suddenly, she was stunned. She found that the place where the silver came into contact with the glass reflected a very clear image.


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t believe it. She looked at the silver money and glass in her hand, and then tried it several times. Only then did she confirm that she had no dazzle just now. She didn''t think that silver was the best thing to make a mirror.


    "I see, master, I understand!" Wu Meiniang said excitedly, holding the silver and glass in her hand.


    The people around me suddenly burst into an uproar. No one thought that Wu Meiniang had succeeded by chance after hundreds of failures.


    "It''s good to understand. You can''t give up easily in the future. Maybe the next time you give up is the coming success!" Merton smiled.


    "Thank you for your instruction!" Wu Meiniang said solemnly.


    Merton nodded and said, "there are two days left, enough for you to make a mirror. Now you need to rest. Purple clothes, you go to accompany Mei Niang back to rest and let her sleep for at least four hours."


    "Yes!" Ziyi immediately helped Wu Meiniang to leave.


    "Master Mo''s apprenticeship opened my eyes!" Master Li sighed, looking at Wu Meiniang''s figure.


    "It''s not easy for the Mohist school to have a successor, so it''s natural to teach carefully." Merton made no secret of it. Wu Meiniang couldn''t see it when she was young. Merton''s actions can''t hide from Master Li.


    Master Li frowned and said, "perseverance and spirituality are indeed materials that can be made, but after all, they are women. Does the Mohist school really want to make a woman a descendant? I''m afraid there will be constant storms in the future."


    In this era, after all, men are still superior to women. If Mohism really focuses on women, there will be constant criticism in the future, and there are too many unstable factors.


    Merton laughed and said in a loud voice, "Kyushu is angry. Relying on the wind and thunder, thousands of horses are silent. It''s sad to study. I advise God to be energetic and not stick to the same style to demote talents. What about women? As long as they are talents, my Mohist family treats them equally."


    "Don''t stick to one style and demote talents!" Master Li suddenly felt a burst of Hao Ran. He immediately found that he was far from losing Mohist School in this point!


    His master''s college has always wanted to recruit female teachers, but he is afraid that all kinds of rumors have not been implemented. Now Merton''s poem has given him great courage. Maybe it''s time for the master''s college to accept talents regardless of style.

 Chapter 716

    Wu Mei Niang woke up and felt refreshed. She suddenly jumped up from the bed and exclaimed, "how long have I slept?"


    "Not more than six hours!" the voice of purple came from one side.


    "Six hours? No! I''m afraid it''s too late!" Wu Meiniang looked anxious and was ready to run out.


    Purple clothes pressed Wu Meiniang down and said, "don''t worry. The glass used for making mirrors in Mojia village today is escorted by Uncle Zhang, the best craftsman in the village. He''s here. I''m sure I can''t miss you!"


    "Grandpa Zhang?" Wu Meiniang was stunned. Although she had just joined the Mojia village, she had heard a lot about Lao Zhang tou''s reputation. Naturally, she knew that Lao Zhang tou was the most skilled craftsman in the Mojia village.


    Under the supervision of Ziyi, Wu Meiniang finished washing and ate something before she was released.


    "Grandpa Zhang!" Wu Meiniang came to the backyard and saw Lao Zhang already waiting there. She quickly shouted sweetly.


    "Mei Niang is so old," Lao Zhang replied hurriedly. Wu Mei Niang is a disciple of Merton, and her status in Mojia village is naturally respected.


    "Uncle Zhang, Meiniang is my disciple. It''s right to call you Grandpa." Merton''s voice came.


    "Master!"


    "Young master!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd saluted one after another.


    Merton waved and said, "don''t be polite. Business matters."


    Lao Zhang took a small piece of glass and handed it to Merton. He said, "please look, young master. This is the flattest glass made by Mojia village. It will certainly satisfy the young master."


    Merton picked up the glass and felt it carefully. It is really much better than the previous flat glass, which has reached the level of making mirrors.


    Merton nodded and said, "then try to make a mirror by the way Meiniang makes a mirror."


    "Yes, master!" Wu Meiniang said excitedly, telling Lao Zhang about her previous discoveries one by one.


    Lao Zhang said, "don''t worry, Meiniang. The silver is very soft and easy to polish. I''m sure Lao Zhang can make it soon."


    "Thank you, Grandpa Zhang!" Wu Meiniang thanked. At the same time, she handed over the silver in her hand. Wu Meiniang naturally wanted to make the first mirror with her own things.


    Lao Zhang took it, picked up the tool in his hand and forged it slowly.


    Jingling, with Lao Zhang''s superb forging skills, a piece of silver was slowly knocked into a thin layer of silver. What makes people marvel is that although it is forged, the surface of the silver is as smooth as a mirror.


    "Uncle Zhang''s craftsmanship is really superb!" Merton couldn''t help but praise him. In terms of craftsmanship, Lao Zhang Tou is indeed the best craftsman in the world.


    "Old, some useless!" Lao Zhang touched his head with sweat, modest in his mouth, but showed an extremely proud expression on his face.


    Lao Zhang''s head flipped in his hand. Without any tools, he cut the silver piece into a round piece two or three times, picked up a glass lens of similar size and pasted it. It was even the same.


    "Mei Niang, please see if you are satisfied." Lao Zhang handed Wu Mei Niang the glass pasted with silver. Wu Mei Niang took it and was stunned. The silver and lenses tightly pasted together unexpectedly showed an incredible reaction and reflected her own clear image.


    "It''s a miracle!" Lao Zhang couldn''t help exclaiming. He had made bronze mirrors, but even the image of the bronze mirror might not be even one tenth clear in front of the silver mirror.


    "This is the real mirror!" Wu Meiniang looked at herself in the mirror and couldn''t help exclaiming.


    All the people in the ink house watched one after another and saw their faces in the silver mirror. They couldn''t help showing a curious look. I''m afraid they saw their faces so clearly for the first time.


    "Please comment!"


    Wu Meiniang picked up the silver mirror and respectfully handed it to Merton.


    "Really good! You pass." Merton looked at the clear image in the silver mirror and nodded with satisfaction.


    When Wu Meiniang heard Merton''s approval, she couldn''t help showing an excited look. However, before she was happy for too long, she listened to Merton continue: "although it is better than bronze mirrors, there are many shortcomings."


    "Please give me some advice!" Wu Meiniang said respectfully.


    Merton pointed to the faint trace of the silver sheet behind the glass and said, "although Uncle Zhang''s craftsmanship is superb, there is still a gap between the silver sheet and the glass, which directly affects the clarity, and it is inevitable to enter foreign bodies in the future. The longer you use it, the worse the effect."


    In the history of mirror manufacturing, metal mirrors dominated by silver mirrors have been popular for many years. However, their biggest disadvantage is that they are used for too long, and water vapor will enter, which greatly affects the clear effect.


    Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "maybe you can set the copper mirror to be removable to clean up foreign matters."


    Lao Zhang nodded. This is really a way, and it''s not difficult to operate.


    "In addition, there is a more serious disadvantage, that is, expensive! Do you know how much a bronze mirror is worth and how much silver you have just made." Merton pointed to the few silver pieces left.


    "Ah!" Wu Mei Niang could not help but cover her mouth and said heartache.


    The bronze mirror is made of pure copper. It is only worth a hundred Wen copper coins. However, the silver piece made by Lao Zhang tou just now cost nearly one or two silver. Coupled with the value of glass, I''m afraid it''s much more expensive than copper mirrors.


    Expensive and defective! Wu Meiniang had to admit that the silver mirror she designed had great defects.


    "Maybe Mojia village can solve the problem of too much money," Lao Zhang said suddenly.


    "Hmm?" the crowd couldn''t help looking at Lao Zhang''s head.


    "In recent days, Lao Zhang has been studying machinery. Together, using machinery can really do things beyond the reach of human beings, and save time, labor and money." Lao Zhang is not a stubborn person, and he naturally sees the convenience of machinery.


    "Silver is soft and easy to forge. Tieping can make a machine for stamping silver sheets. In this way, the silver sheets can be thinned as much as possible, so as to save costs." Lao Zhang said solemnly. To make a mirror, you only need a silver sheet as the bottom. An inch thick silver sheet has the same effect as a silver sheet as thin as a cicada''s wing, but the cost is very different. However, by hand, It is impossible to make a silver sheet as thin as a cicada''s wing. Only stamping machinery is possible.


    Merton could not help but look at Lao Zhang''s head with satisfaction. Lao Zhang could take the initiative to think of using machinery, which was a very rare change for Mojia village.


    Merton nodded, "in that case, it''s Tieping''s job to make silver mirrors as a new industry in Mojia village."


    "Young master, wise!" all the people in the Mohist family were surprised. Such a clear mirror appeared in the market and must directly crush the bronze mirror. There is an extra source of wealth in the Mohist village.


    "Mei Niang, as the inventor of silver mirror, enjoys half of her membership." Merton''s words surprised humanity.


    "Half a member!" the crowd suddenly exclaimed, looking at Wu Meiniang with surprised eyes.


    You should know that such a mirror has appeared, which must be popular in the Tang Dynasty. What a huge fortune half members will make. Now all this wealth belongs to a ten-year-old girl.


    "Master, this is too much! I can''t afford it." although Wu Meiniang doesn''t understand, she knows that it must be a huge fortune.


    "You deserve it, and so will the children of Mohism in the future. Whoever invented the ink technology will enjoy half of the benefits of this technology." Merton said positively.


    "Young master, wise!"


    The Mohist people believe that as soon as the policy of Mohist village comes out, countless Mohist children will compete to develop Mohist technology. All along, Mohist village''s innovative technology has been supported by Merton alone. With this incentive method, I believe that there will be a second Mohist and a third Mohist in the future Mohist Village


    "It''s an honor for Mei Niang to help the master. She really doesn''t dare to ask for too much." Wu Mei Niang was at a loss. From everyone''s mouth, he has gradually understood what a huge fortune this half member is.


    Merton laughed and said, "you look down on being a teacher too much. How can you be a teacher? How can you use your mirror as a bride price."


    Wu Meiniang looked at Merton with a surprised look on her face and said, "could it be that the master has made a magic mirror!"


    "This is nature!" Merton nodded proudly. Of course, what he did was not a common silver crossing mirror in later generations. Even if he wanted to achieve it with the current technology, his technology was the tin amalgam method in the transitional stage.

 Chapter 717

    "There are many metals similar to silver in this world, but you haven''t found them yet!" Merton turned to Wu Meiniang in the laboratory in the backyard of the Mo mansion.


    Merton made the mirror of the tin amalgam method as a bride price to marry Princess Changle. Naturally, it needs to be kept secret. Therefore, there are only Merton, Wu Meiniang and Lao Zhang tou in the whole laboratory.


    Lao Zhang nodded thoughtfully and said, "the iron just smelted is also very white, but it is very easy to rust and is not suitable for mirrors."


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, although iron is also white, it is not applicable, but it is not easy to rust in the world. Although there are not many similar colors to silver, there are also many, such as aluminum, tin and mercury. The focus I use today is mercury!"


    "Mercury?"


    Wu Meiniang''s glasses lit up immediately. If it''s color, I''m afraid mercury is the most similar to silver. Otherwise, she wouldn''t call it mercury.


    Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "although the color of mercury is similar to that of silver, mercury drops on the ground like drops of water. I''m afraid it can''t attach to the glass at all."


    Wu Meiniang immediately frowned and looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton solemnly said to Wu Meiniang, "so I''ll teach you as a teacher. Another unique skill of Mohist ink technology is the method of alloy."


    "The method of alloy!" Wu Meiniang quickly looked solemn and listened carefully. Now she was very persistent in Mohist ink technology. She couldn''t help but feel 12 points energetic when she heard the unique skills of Mohist ink technology.


    "Young master, Lao Zhang would better avoid it!" Lao Zhang said uneasily. Merton taught Wu Meiniang the unique skills of Mohism. I''m afraid it''s appropriate for him to listen in.


    "Uncle Zhang, what do you say? You are still a hero of Mohism. When did Mohism''s unique skills hide from you?" Merton hurriedly advised.


    "Thank you for your trust!" Lao Zhang was moved.


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "the alloy method is not the original creation of Mohism, but the mercury Qi method derived from Taoism! Qi is an alloy, which is different things. Different things, different proportions, and even different smelting methods will have different effects through different mixing or smelting."


    Lao Zhang nodded solemnly and said, "what the young master said is that the iron smelting and steel-making effects of Mohism are very different, but the materials are very different. It is said that the mercury Qi method of Taoism is even more miraculous, and it is said that stone turns gold."


    Merton nodded and said, "the root of amalgam is mercury. However, as a teacher, he believes that all things in the world can be applied. How many kinds of things in the world, two or even multiple mixed smelting, there will be endless new things, how much knowledge it will be, and how broad the prospect of Mohism is." Merton said excitedly.


    Wu Meiniang was immediately full of pride. Her young heart was inspired by Merton. She immediately nodded like a chicken''s blood. She immediately had a great sense of belonging to the Mohist school.


    In fact, it''s not just Wu Meiniang. Even Lao Zhang on one side is equally excited. Merton''s alloy method has opened an endless knowledge to the Mohists.


    "Now I''ll personally show you the method of alloy. Although mercury can''t adhere to glass, I use tin to mix with mercury." Merton said, picked up a complete glass and put it in front of them. At the same time, he pasted a piece of tin paper as thin as cicada wings on one side of the glass.


    Wu Meiniang and Lao Zhang stared at Merton''s actions one by one, not sparing a trace of details.


    After Merton finished all this, he dropped some mercury on the glass. Sure enough, mercury was like what Lao Zhang said. Mercury was like water droplets. It was round and round on the tin foil, and even rolled back and forth. It couldn''t touch the glass at all.


    As time went by, the tinfoil as thin as a cicada''s wing was slowly melted by mercury. Merton cleaned up the excess mercury and found that the original tinfoil became a kind of thick silver white liquid tin amalgam. The tin amalgam tightly adhered to the glass without a trace of air, which perfectly solved the problem of air.


    "However, there are risks in ink technology. For example, this mercury is toxic and volatile. It can''t be contacted for a long time and can''t be carried out in a sealed space," Merton said.


    "Disciple, remember!" Wu Meiniang was taught.


    Merton gently turned over the unfinished mirror and exposed the front of the mirror. He saw that the three people in the mirror were clearly visible, and did not see the tin amalgam behind it. It was several times better than the silver mirror made by Wu Meiniang.


    "This is the real magic mirror!" Wu Meiniang looked at herself in the mirror and couldn''t help being obsessed. However, what she was obsessed with was not her appearance, but her amazing ink skills.


    Before that, she almost thought that her silver mirror was the limit, but she didn''t expect Merton to make a more advanced mirror in another way.


    Lao Zhang''s head was also shocked. Although he claimed to be the first craftsman in Mojia village, in fact, he was nothing without Merton. He had a superb craftsmanship and did nothing for the first half of his life. Until he met the young master, he had the opportunity to show his strengths. Anything in Merton''s hands will turn decay into magic.


    Merton looked at the sticky tin amalgam, shook his head and said, "although I have solved the problem of attachment, I am sure that Mercury is not real silver after all. If I cross the real silver to the glass, I am afraid it is the real perfect mirror."


    "How can the silver get to the glass?" Lao Zhang was stunned and couldn''t help but be stunned by Merton''s idea.


    Merton laughed and said, "not now. Maybe one day in the future, some children of Mohism will finish it."


    Wu Meiniang secretly kept this in mind, turned to look at the sticky tin amalgam on the back of the mirror and said anxiously, "but, master, now the five-day period is coming, can this mirror be completed as scheduled?"


    Merton smiled, pointed to some linen covered objects next to him and said, "this mirror making method is just to demonstrate for you and teach you Mohist skills. The real mirror has been made long ago. Uncle Zhang, have I done what I want?"


    "Don''t worry, young master. It''s not difficult for me to do a little carpentry!" said Lao Zhang, taking out some well-designed wooden frames.


    A bare glass mirror naturally has nothing to see. Merton from later generations has naturally seen all kinds of frame styles, and has long sent the drawings back to Mojia village for production.


    Lao Zhang''s head opened the linen cloth and revealed several mirrors that had been made. It was natural that a little carpentry could not defeat Lao Zhang''s head. Under the gaze of master and apprentice Merton, Lao Zhang began to assemble the mirrors without a teacher. Soon, all the mirrors had been assembled.


    So far, the bride price for marrying Princess Changle has been prepared.

 Chapter 718

    While master and apprentice Merton were constantly studying the method of making mirrors, a beautiful fairy tale spread all over Chang''an city.


    "Snow White!"


    As soon as snow white came out, she immediately captured the hearts of the children in Chang''an city.


    Beautiful princess, magic mirror! Good hunter, seven dwarfs


    Interesting characters make countless children enjoy talking about it and listen to the story again and again. Many little girls secretly hold adults'' bronze mirrors and ask loudly who is the most beautiful woman in the world!


    At the same time, the source of this fairy tale was also picked out, and the news that Merton would use the magic mirror as the bride price came one after another.


    Children''s attention is just a fairy tale, while adults pay more attention to the marriage between Merton and Princess Changle. Once Merton and Princess Changle get married, it will be a major event that will stir Chang''an city.


    One is the most famous talent in Chang''an City, the son of the Mohist family who is in charge of the Mohist school, and the other is the first daughter of the Tang Dynasty''s first princess, Li Shimin and the empress changsun. Their marriage will certainly stir Chang''an city.


    However, the key to Merton''s marriage is the magic mirror in the fairy tale. The Mexican family promised to take the magic mirror to the palace to propose marriage in five days, and today is the fifth day.


    "Mother, I want to hear snow white again!" Princess Jinyang said coquettishly with a bronze mirror in her hand in the legislative palace.


    Empress Chang sun had no choice but to hold Princess Jinyang and tell it again. He had told the story more than a hundred times in five days, but Princess Jinyang never got tired of hearing it.


    "Empress mother, who do you think is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Princess Jinyang asked naively.


    "Of course it''s our lovely son!" the eldest Sun Queen gently hugged the princess of Jinyang.


    The princess of Jinyang looked at her figure in the bronze mirror and said shyly, "she''s ugly. Her sister is beautiful."


    Empress Chang sun smiled gently and said, "that''s because Changle is still young. When she grows up, she will be as beautiful as her sister."


    The Jinyang Princess nodded hard. The eldest Sun Queen handed the Jinyang princess to gong''e, turned and asked, "where''s Merton?"


    "If you go back to the empress, someone from the Mo house has sent a message. I believe it will arrive soon." a gong-e bowed.


    "Someone has been sent to send a message. Is it because Merton has made the magic mirror!" a group of concubines exclaimed next to empress Chang sun.


    Changle is the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. Merton came to ask for a marriage. Naturally, all the empresses have come. They naturally know that Merton''s bride price is a magic mirror that claims to be able to detect who is the best beauty in the world. How can they sit still? Most of the flowers and flowers come to the government hall one after another.


    "What magic mirror is there in this world? It''s just a fairy tale for children!" Princess Wei said with a curl of her mouth. As Zheng Chonghua said, Merton did not use gold and silver, but used strange things as the bride price. Coupled with snow white''s fairy tale, this bride price added a bit of legend, which made Princess Wei even more unhappy.


    Zheng Chonghua covered his mouth and said with a smile, "since the birth of the Mohist school, there have been many strange things for the Tang Dynasty. If there were another magic mirror, there would not be many!"


    She guessed Merton''s next action directly, which made her face rise in the harem and said proudly.


    Among the empresses, there are two factions. Some don''t believe that any mirror will be so magical. Many people think that since Merton dares to come, he must be a bit sure. In addition, the repeated miracles before Merton make the concubines look forward to it.


    The imperial concubines talked one after another. It was not long before they heard that Gong e hurried into the Lizheng hall and came to report: "tell the queen, madam Qin and Marquis Mo to see you."


    "Coming!"


    The concubines were stunned and immediately ended their discussion. They looked forward to looking at the door of the legislative hall. Whether the magic mirror was true or false would be known soon.


    "I''ll see the empress and ladies!"


    Soon, Mrs. Qin in full dress appeared in the sight of everyone. When she saw the empress Chang sun, Mrs. Qin said respectfully with a happy face.


    She is the matchmaker invited by Merton. It''s natural to let her come forward today. After all, in this era, matchmakers are essential. Changle is the long princess. Naturally, she pays more attention to these etiquette.


    On the first day of the new year, she just mentioned Merton intentionally. Unexpectedly, Merton was so fast that a good thing was about to happen in less than half a month.


    "Madam Qin is exempted." empress Chang sun came forward and said.


    Mrs. Qin is not only the wife of Yi Guogong, but also the matchmaker of Changle. No matter what level of relationship, empress Chang sun can''t neglect it.


    "I came here today, but for the good of Merton and Changle, who would have thought that the children were so big in the twinkling of an eye." Mrs. Qin sighed.


    "Yes!" said the eldest grandson.


    I''m afraid any mother will be very reluctant to see her daughter get married, but men should marry women. Princess Changle is 16 years old. If she had been married before, she would have been married for two or three years.


    "Although your majesty has promised to marry, how can you play a child''s game in the event of marriage? I think we should still take the six rites as common, and we can''t neglect any more." Mrs. Qin solemnly said.


    Empress Chang sun nodded solemnly and said, "it should be so."


    After all, Changle is the eldest princess. There must be some etiquette. Mrs. Qin can be so solemn, which is the intention of empress changsun.


    So Mrs. Qin and empress Chang sun finished the three items of natch, name asking and Nagi as quickly as possible in public.


    "Congratulations, madam. It''s a perfect match between them!" Mrs. Qin congratulated.


    "Congratulations to the queen!" all the empresses congratulated in unison.


    Everyone knows that this is just a formality. Merton and Princess Changle are in a special situation. I''m afraid they are free lovers of the first team of the Tang Dynasty. Even if the eight character conflict can''t stop this marriage.


    However, the concubines did not pay attention to these. They all knew that the real play was coming, so they accepted the levy.


    You should know that the bride price promised by Merton is a thousand times and ten thousand gold. They want to see what kind of mirror can be worth so much wealth.


    "Please, Mo Hou!"


    With the announcement, Merton, dressed in brocade, took the lead in entering the legislative palace, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention. The empresses had to praise Merton for being a rare good son in Chang''an city. Although Princess Changle has a noble status, Merton is absolutely rare to be worthy of his young talents.


    "I''ll see the empress and ladies!" Murton bowed.


    "Excuse me!" the eldest grandson waved.


    "Thank you, empress. Thanks for the empress''s love, she betrothed Changle to Weichen. Today, Weichen specially prepared a wedding gift and wanted the empress''s permission." Merton waved his hand, and suddenly several bodyguards carefully raised some objects covered with red silk, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Is this the magic mirror?" all the girls guessed one after another.


    Women love beauty, especially in the harem. Beauty is the best weapon to win favor. Which woman doesn''t want to know who is the most beautiful woman in the world?


    Imperial concubine Wei couldn''t help humming in her heart. She didn''t believe that there would be magic mirrors that didn''t lie and could talk in the world. Instead, she wanted to see how the Mo family came to round the scene. Mrs. Qin on the side couldn''t help looking forward. Merton asked her to be a matchmaker. Naturally, she wanted her to witness the bride price first, but she knew how magical these mirrors were.


    Merton looked around for a week and suddenly saw Zheng Chonghua among the empresses. He was stunned. He immediately covered up the past and said, "there are three mirrors for the wedding gift of Weichen today, and the queen is poor and cheap. The first is a makeup mirror, which can be stored in a box for easy carrying to check her face."


    "Makeup mirror!" the imperial concubines were moved. Among the imperial concubines in the harem, there was no one who didn''t wear powder. I''m afraid dressing up was a necessary skill for every woman. On the one hand, it didn''t lose etiquette, on the other hand, it was to compete for favor. The usual makeup was naturally cautious. The imperial concubines usually carried a small bronze mirror with them to tidy up their appearance.


    Merton raised the first red silk, revealed a palm sized round object, and bowed down to the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang sun was stunned when she found that the object in her hand was folded. She couldn''t help reaching out and opening it. Suddenly, a light flashed. Empress Chang sun couldn''t help but look surprised when she saw her face in the palm sized round mirror in her hand.


    "Is this the magic mirror you talked about?"


    Empress Chang sun looked stunned and couldn''t help looking back and forth at the thin lens and then at herself in the mirror.


    When the other empresses saw the empress Chang sun''s gaffe, they couldn''t help but be curious. However, the makeup mirror was only palm size, and the area they could see was very small. They could only see some light, and they looked down on others. They couldn''t help itching.


    After a long time, empress Chang sun closed her makeup mirror and exclaimed, "the unique skills of Mohism are really amazing."


    When Wei Guifei heard empress Chang sun say this, she was shocked. Empress Chang Sun said this, which was obviously convinced by the makeup mirror in her hand. The empresses couldn''t help looking at each other. She was very confused. Is there really a magic mirror in the world?


    "Thank you for your praise!"


    At this time, Merton naturally would not be modest and went directly to the second red silk.


    "This mirror is the dressing mirror prepared by Weichen for Changle!"


    Merton said, the red silk fell and revealed a two foot dressing mirror, which was much larger than the dressing mirror. Many empresses were stunned when they saw the scene in the mirror.


    "As like as two peas in the mirror," Yang Fei, who was closest to him, could not believe in looking at herself in the mirror. She reached out to touch her face and found that the mirror was exactly the same as her movements.


    It was the first time in her life that she saw her appearance so clearly. In this era, there were no photos and other things. People could see the appearance of others, but it was very vague about her appearance. Even if Yang Fei was spoiled by the two dynasties, she might have seen her appearance for the first time.


    Other concubines also found themselves in the mirror. One by one, they couldn''t help coming up to the dressing mirror and looking at their faces. Even concubine Wei, who was very biased against Merton, was no exception, staring at the dressing mirror in front of them one by one.


    Princess Wei noticed her gaffe and couldn''t help sitting upright. Her eyes turned and said, "mohou, you promised a magic mirror that can''t lie and talk. Although it''s wonderful, it''s just a cold mirror."


    Zheng Chonghua chuckled, grabbed the handle and said: "Sister Wei, as like as two peas," snow white, "it''s just a fairy tale told to children. My sister really believed it. Besides, I can''t lie before the makeup mirror. It''s beautiful and ugly. I can see where I can lie. Is this not the same as the magic mirror in fairy tales? And any woman looking at herself in the mirror is still the most beautiful woman in the world. There''s no counting. Anyway, my little sister can''t compare with your sisters. "


    Zheng Chonghua''s means were extremely high, and he held up a group of empresses quietly.


    "We are all old, and my sister is in full bloom." Yang Fei sighed. She saw her crow''s feet in the mirror just now.


    "Elder sister is as old as before, where is old!" Zheng Chonghua praised.


    All the concubines use rare things to maintain their appearance. Coupled with their natural beauty, they don''t lose much compared with young Zheng Chonghua.


    "Flatterer!" Wei Guifei couldn''t help humming coldly when she looked at Zheng Chonghua. However, today is a good day for Changle. It''s inconvenient for her to turn her face with Zheng Chonghua, but she focused on the last tall object.


    "The last one is a dressing mirror." Merton didn''t sell off, but directly pulled down the red silk to reveal a dressing mirror that was more than a person, enough to reflect a person''s whole body.


    "Dressing collocation is very important. With a dressing mirror, you can see your dressing collocation and choose the clothes that are most suitable for you."


    Without Merton''s explanation, there was only pure light in the eyes of the empress concubines. They naturally knew the importance of dressing glasses.


    Makeup mirror, dressing mirror, dressing mirror and three mirrors can be said that each one firmly adheres to a woman''s mind. I''m afraid no woman in the world can refuse such temptation.


    Zheng Chonghua, who was on the other side, was secretly jealous of Princess Changle. She married the most powerful in the world and had great power, but she needed to compete with many concubines. However, Princess Changle had Merton''s heart alone and enjoyed the only treasure in the world. How could she be happy.


    Zheng Chonghua''s eyes turned and said, "what Marquis Mo promised was a thousand times for employment and ten thousand gold for gift. This is just three mirrors. Although it is quite wonderful, I''m afraid it''s not worth so much!"


    Many empresses nodded thoughtfully. The bride price was more than strange. I''m afraid it was of little value. Merton''s move was suspected of being tricky. Mrs. Qin couldn''t help showing an anxious look and looked at Merton nervously.


    Merton showed a trace of confidence, reached out and took out a secret letter from his arms, bowed and said, "the only three mirrors are naturally not my bride price, but the secret recipe of the magic mirror!"


    "Secret recipe!"


    Everyone was stunned. Everyone knew that once these three mirrors appeared on the market, they would certainly cause countless women to rush to buy them. This would be a lot of wealth. Even if the empresses were in the deep palace for a long time and didn''t eat human fireworks, they couldn''t help but be shocked. However, Merton didn''t hesitate to give them in order to marry Princess Changle.


    Even empress Chang sun could not help sighing in her heart that Merton''s bride price was more than ten times the promised bride price. Anyone who had this secret recipe was afraid to get rich overnight.


    "This dowry is enough!" empress Chang sun was very satisfied with this dowry. On the one hand, she avoided too much gold and silver dowry, which made Princess Changle''s reputation bad. Although the value of this ink technique was amazing, it was within her power for Merton, which could not be more appropriate.


    "Thank you, empress." Merton suddenly showed a happy look. The eldest grandson queen accepted the bride price, which means she agreed to the marriage.


    "Silly boy, don''t change your mouth!" Mrs. Qin said.


    Merton suddenly realized, "thank you for your success."


    "Congratulations to the empress on her son-in-law!" the empresses also congratulated one after another.


    The eldest grandson empress looked happy. Her mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at Merton, the more pleasing she was to her eyes. She couldn''t help being kind.


    "Now that the marriage has been completed, how about taking this opportunity to fix the wedding date today?" Mrs. Qin hit the railway while it was hot.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "well, it''s a month."


    Mrs. Qin had been prepared. She took out a yellow calendar and looked through it until February. She read it carefully and said, "February 16 is an auspicious day. It''s appropriate to marry, not today."


    "Yes!" said the eldest grandson.


    So far, the wedding date of Merton and Princess Changle has been set,

 Chapter 719

    "This is the bride price of Mohist school!"


    Li Shimin looked at the big belly in the mirror and unconsciously inhaled his small belly and put it away.


    After the world was stable, he had left his military career, and his unconscious body had become fat. Originally, Li Shimin didn''t see his body and didn''t feel anything! Now looking at his bloated figure, he suddenly woke up.


    "Three mirrors are just treasures! What really matters is the secret recipe of this magic mirror! With the secret recipe, how many of these mirrors are there!" empress Chang sun solemnly handed the secret letter in her hand.


    "Secret recipe?"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but move in his heart and scolded, "it''s really nonsense. What''s the use of the royal family for this secret recipe, and how can they compete for profits with the people?"


    Anyone who sees these three mirrors knows how amazing their value is. Naturally, it is far better than the bride price promised by Merton. However, the most important thing for the royal family is money. These mirrors are valuable, but if the royal family pockets them, it will not compete for profits with the people, let alone what people think, I''m afraid the whole court will fall apart.


    Empress Chang sun smiled and said, "before, I thought the same as your majesty, but when I saw the secret letter, I changed my mind."


    Following the sight of empress Chang sun, Li Shimin set his eyes on the secret letter in his hand. An Nai opened the secret letter with doubts in his heart, but found that the secret recipe of magic mirror in the secret letter was only a few.


    "Tin amalgam! So simple?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but wonder.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "the tin amalgam is not difficult, but the difficulty lies in the unique glass secret skills of the Mohist school."


    Now the glass is in the hands of the Mohists and the tin amalgam is in the hands of the royal family. Both can be said to be indispensable. Merton promised in a secret letter to regularly and quantitatively deliver how much glass to the royal family to make mirrors every year.


    Li Shimin then looked down, and the more he looked, the more dignified he was. Merton''s secret letter contained more than a secret recipe. It was simply a memorial.


    "This mirror can alleviate the danger of copper shortage in the Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin said excitedly as he looked at the secret letter in his hand,


    Empress Chang sun solemnly said, "the effect of both the magic mirror and the silver mirror made by Wu is several times that of the bronze mirror. Before long, I''m afraid not many people in the world will use the bronze mirror again. So much copper will be returned to the imperial court. I''m afraid there will be no worry about the lack of copper in the Tang Dynasty in the short term."


    Making bronze mirrors is extremely copper consuming, which is the biggest copper consumption in the Tang Dynasty in addition to casting money. However, the Tang Dynasty is extremely short of copper, but the production of glass mirrors does not consume copper at all, even a thin layer of silver.


    It can alleviate the copper shortage crisis in Datang. In this way, the significance of glass mirror is immediately raised a lot.


    "This technique seems to be ingenious, but it benefits the country and the people." Li Shimin sighed. If it''s just money, Li Shimin naturally won''t care. However, it''s related to the big events such as money casting in the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin had to be cautious.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "Merton said: the magic mirror looks magical, but its manufacture is very simple. If it is difficult to keep the secret in the Mohist school, if the royal family comes forward and secretly manufactures the magic mirror, it can not only alleviate the danger of copper shortage in China, but also be exported to other countries and plunder the wealth of the world for the Tang Dynasty."


    Such magical sunglasses are not only crazy for women in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid it''s difficult for women all over the world to resist its charm. They can not only sell well in neighboring countries, but also use the Silk Road to sell far away to western countries. I''m afraid the profit is no less than that of silk.


    "In this way, isn''t the royal family taking advantage of the stool?" Li Shimin said with a bitter smile. He really doesn''t care about money. That''s because some small money can''t see his eyes. Even Li Shimin can''t help being moved by the incalculable value of the magic mirror. Although the wealth of the Tang Dynasty has increased year by year, somehow he always feels that the imperial court is more and more short of money.


    "If Merton gives such a heavy dowry, it depends on how much dowry his majesty wants to marry!" the eldest sun empress covered her mouth and smiled.


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly appeared embarrassed. The Mojia village where money has turned over doesn''t need it at all, and Merton''s bride price is so unique. If the royal family uses money as a dowry, wouldn''t it be inferior.


    "What do you say you should marry?" Li Shimin asked.


    Empress Chang sun shook her head and said, "where do you know? But from my point of view, what Merton attaches most importance to is Mohist School and Mohist village. If the emperor takes this breakthrough, it may have a miraculous effect!"


    "Mohist and Mohist village?"


    As soon as Li Shimin''s eyes lit up, he suddenly had an idea in his heart. He would not intervene in the contention of hundreds of schools. After all, the court would benefit from the contention of hundreds of schools, and if he helped, I''m afraid he would dissatisfy the Confucianism who occupied the court.


    However, although he could not directly help the Mohists, he could help them in the Mohist village. After thinking for a while, he said, "if the order goes on, Changle is the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. There are 3000 families in the Food Town, with an additional 500 families, and the fief will be transferred to the south of Chang''an City, adjacent to the Mohist village."


    According to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, there are 3500 households in Shiyi, but there are only 350. Although it is said that once Princess Changle marries, her back cover will naturally be incorporated into the Mohist village, and these 3500 households are also under the jurisdiction of guimohist village.


    Mojia village originally had only a thousand families. Now the population under its jurisdiction has more than tripled and the area has nearly tripled, which has won more development space for Mojia village at once, which is immeasurable for the future of Mojia village.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" empress Chang Sun said happily.


    The royal dowry is also not heavy on money, but is extremely important to Mojia village. It is similar to the magic mirror offered by Mojia Zi.


    Li Shimin nodded complacently and solemnly ordered, "in addition, the Royal etiquette can''t be less, and there should be a dowry for Changle."


    "Is that nature?" the empress nodded.


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief after giving these orders. All along, the Royal married daughters have been rich in dowry, and the son-in-law has taken a lot of advantage. However, Merton is probably the first one who is not poor in money, not short of money, and can make more money. If there were not a Mohist village, the royal family would really not be able to get much rare things for Merton.


    "Send these dowries to Changle palace and tell the weaving bureau that everything about Princess Changle''s marriage should not be careless. Be sure to prepare it within one month." Li Shimin said solemnly.


    "Remember me!" empress Chang sun nodded.


    "Also, send this secret recipe to the prison, let it secretly make magic mirrors, and all the proceeds belong to the Red Cross!" Li Shimin ordered.


    Li Shimin is naturally not hypocritical about the huge benefits of glass mirrors. However, it is nominally the dowry of Princess Changle. It is justifiable to attribute it to the Red Cross, and it can play a greater role.


    "Yes!"


    Pound immediately bowed to one side.

 Chapter 720

    In the Changle palace.


    Princess Changle stayed in her boudoir uneasily. As a little spy, Li Zhi kept running back and forth in Changle palace and Lizheng palace.


    "Sister Changle, Merton has come to the palace!" Li Zhi panted and ran into Princess Changle and reported.


    "The young slave did a good job!"


    Changle blushed and put a piece of cake into Li Zhi''s mouth to reward his credit.


    Li Zhi swallowed the cake in his mouth in twos and threes. He couldn''t help looking at the cake with a gap on one side.


    "Inquire again! If only! These cakes are yours!" Changle seduced.


    Hearing the speech, Li Zhi immediately ran to the Lizheng hall.


    "Make up mirror, dressing mirror, dressing mirror!"


    "February 16th wedding!"


    "There are 3500 households in Shiyi, and the fief is adjacent to Mojia village."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, as pieces of cake were destroyed by Li Zhi, news spread from Li Zhi''s mouth to Princess Changle''s ears.


    Princess Changle can''t help being shy and proud. Shyly, this time her wedding date is Yi. She is proud that Merton really didn''t break his promise and made a mirror that convinced the whole harem. It''s enough to marry such a husband for a lifetime.


    "Princess highness, this is the bride price of Mo Hou, and your royal highness!" a group of maid eunuchs carried the bride price to the Changle palace. Behind a crowd of eunuchs, there were many princesses who came to hear the news. Changle was the princess of the long line. Today they set the date of marriage, and they naturally come to congratulate them.


    "Congratulations on your marriage!" Princess Yuzhang said with envy on her face. Naturally, other princesses came to congratulate her, even Princess Gaoyang, who did not deal with Changle bar again.


    "Is this the bride price of her brother-in-law?" Princess baling said curiously, but her eyes involuntarily fell on the red silk in the hands of the maid eunuch.


    The news that Merton took the secret recipe of the magic mirror as the bride price has already spread all over the harem. A group of princesses came to congratulate him. Of course, the most important purpose is to see how magical the so-called magic mirror is.


    Princess Changle smiled. She naturally knew what the sisters thought. To tell the truth, even she was curious about the so-called magic mirror.


    "Open it!" Princess Changle said proudly, gesturing to the eunuchs to open the red silk.


    This is her bride price, which can make a group of sisters envy so much. Naturally, it makes her a little more proud.


    The red silk fell down again. When the exquisite mirror appeared in front of the princesses and reflected the faces of the princesses, almost all the princesses were surprised.


    "Sister is so happy?" Princess Yuzhang said with envy.


    As the bride price of Princess Changle, these magical mirrors are much better than some vulgar things. How can they not be envied by all the princesses.


    "If your sister likes it, I''ll ask Merton to send some more mirrors for your sister''s use." Princess Changle said generously.


    "Thank you, sister Changle!"


    The princesses cheered that such a magical mirror was hundreds of times better than their bronze mirror. How could he not be moved.


    "Sister doesn''t know yet! Merton''s bride price is not these mirrors, but the secret recipe for making mirrors." Princess Yuzhang covered her mouth and smiled.


    "Ah!"


    Princess Changle exclaimed. Only then did she understand how valuable Merton''s bride price was.


    However, this did not disappoint the princesses. No matter who had it, their mirrors were indispensable.


    Just as the princesses cheered, the news that Merton and Princess Changle were about to get married spread all over Chang''an city.


    The fairy tale love between Merton and Princess Changle has long been talked about by the people of Chang''an city. Coupled with the rumors of snow white, people naturally know that Merton''s bride price is the magic mirror in Snow White''s fairy tale.


    "Ah! Did the Mohists really make magic mirrors?" countless people exclaimed.


    "That''s natural. If not, how can your majesty allow marriage? Besides, deceiving your majesty is a crime of deceiving the king." a citizen said proudly,. As if he made a magic mirror.


    "I really want to see how magical the so-called magic mirror is? Who is the first beauty in the world." the people were itching.


    It''s nothing for men, but for men


    "The magic mirror is just a fairy tale. How can you really talk? In my opinion, the magic mirror mentioned by Merton is just magical. Besides, the things produced by the Mohists can be mass produced. I believe that before long, the so-called magic mirror will certainly appear in Chang''an city." a Merton fan insisted.


    For a while, there was a lot of discussion in Chang''an city. Almost all the topics were inseparable from the marriage of magic mirror and Princess Merton Changle. Many people talked about the love between Merton and Princess Changle one by one from the night of new year''s Eve, which aroused the exclamation of the audience.


    For ordinary people, Merton''s marriage with Princess Changle is just an anecdote. However, among the hundreds of families, they are moving secretly.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help sighing when he heard the news.


    The news he got was more detailed than that of ordinary people. The news that Princess Changle''s fief was incorporated into Mojia village reached his ears at the first time.


    Merton and Princess Changle got married and became relatives of the royal family. Of course, it will give the Mohist family support, but Kong Yingda won''t care about these. What really made him cautious was the means of the emergence and disappearance of the Mohist children. In addition, the scope and population of the Mohist village have suddenly increased several times. The Mohist school has grown into a stage that Confucianists have to pay attention to.


    "Has the news of Qufu come?" Kong Yingda turned to the housekeeper of the Confucius house.


    The Confucius housekeeper nodded and said, "the family has already selected a candidate. It won''t take long to get to Chang''an City, but the young master also followed."


    "Kong huisuo!"


    Kong Yingda frowned. After graduating from the Imperial College, Kong huisuo has returned to the Kong family in Qufu. Now it has been a year.


    "It''s good to come. Just let him send a congratulatory note to his classmates."


    Kong Yingda nodded thoughtfully. Although Confucianism and Mohism compete, they are all 100 schools. They still have this demeanor.


    In addition to Confucianism, hundreds of other schools have also paid attention to this matter, and have granted reward and congratulations.


    However, I''m afraid the public losers are the most touched among the hundred. For a long time, Mohism and public losers are equal, with little difference. Now the sudden rise of Mohism has left the public losers behind.


    This time Merton and Princess Changle got married, Li Shimin suddenly tripled the population and area of Mojia village, and suddenly threw the public loser into the sky.


    "Mojia village has completely turned over this time!" Gongshu Hong sighed.


    He led the public losers to catch up with Mohism, but he didn''t expect that the gap with Mohism was becoming larger and larger, which immediately made him feel powerless.


    And with the influence of Princess Changle, I''m afraid not many people dare to embarrass Mojia village. Mojia village will usher in a great opportunity for development. All these public losers can only envy.


    "In my opinion, turning over the Mohist school is not bad for the public losers. Since the rise of the Mohist school, the status of craftsmen has greatly improved, and our public losers are also rising." public loser Hao zhengse said.


    Since he improved the locks, he has been heavily purchased by Mojia village. His position in the public loser has been greatly improved, and his speech also has weight.


    "Yes, our losers are not unique. As long as we stick to our original intention, Tang craftsmen will certainly have a place in our losers in the future." gongshuhong said firmly.


    The public loser frowned and said, "what about the orders from the Mohist bank?"


    Along with the news that Merton is about to get married, there is the bank vault order of Mojia village. The most demanding part of this order is that it requires the design of the safest vault, which can''t even be cracked by public losers.


    The sons of public losers are very embarrassed. Take it. They are afraid that Mojia village will steal the secrets of public losers. Don''t take it! The remuneration of the Mohist school can be said to be extremely generous, which is a big business.


    The public transport wheel gritted his teeth and said, "take it, why not take it! Why not make money!"


    "But what if this is a Mohist trick?" the public transport ship worried.


    Once the public loser''s design drawings are handed over to the Mohists, I''m afraid that before long, the public loser''s Secret skills will be cracked by the Mohists.


    Gongshuhao retorted: "gongshujia is afraid of Mohist''s Secret skills. Isn''t Mohist afraid of gongshujia''s ability to crack Mohist''s silver treasury? If both families are so wary, I''m afraid it will never happen."


    The sons of the public losers were stunned. The Mohist school took the lead in expressing sincerity. It would be a little cautious if the public losers refused.


    "The Mohists believe in the reputation of the public losers, and the public losers naturally believe in the reputation of the Mohists. If the public losers design the safest bank for the Mohists, it will certainly be a good story. In the future, when the world''s dignitaries build secret rooms, I''m afraid the first thing they think of is our public losers. What a precious opportunity for the public losers." public losers Hong suddenly opened his mind, compared with the risks he took, The possible benefits of public losers are very huge, so they are not excited by public losers.


    Gongshu family is unique in the secret room mechanism. If we make use of the Mohist bank to make a reputation, Gongshu family will have a unique business and have a foothold in Chang''an city.


    "OK, then I''ll gamble with the public loser and offer a congratulatory sticker to the Mohist. At the same time, the Mohist, I''ll take the order." the public loser round said fiercely, and all the public loser''s children nodded one after another.

 Chapter 721

    With the arrival of hundreds of congratulatory stickers, the whole ink house was full of joy.


    At the beginning, the biggest problem in Mojia village was the problem of being single. With the continuous rise of Mojia village led by Merton, all the young people in Mojia village have married and had children. I''m afraid Merton is one of the few single people in Mojia village. Now Merton is finally getting married, and everyone in the Mojia family is finally relieved.


    "The young master is finally getting married, and the master can smile in the spirit of heaven." old Fu Bo burst into tears and wept with joy in front of Mo lie''s spirit.


    Hearing the news, Li Yi thought of this possibility. The villages near Mojia village prayed secretly that their village would be called the fief of Princess Changle.


    There was jubilation in Mojia village, but the two local snakes in the south of Chang''an City were silent. Weidu in the south of the city, the biggest landlords in the south of Chang''an city are the Wei family and the Du family. Before that, although the Mojia village was strong, it was the territory of one village. If the Mojia village added 3500 households at once, it would be almost the same as the population actually controlled by the Wei and Du families. In addition, with the help of Mohist ink technology, the strength has increased greatly, I''m afraid the south of Chang''an City has entered a state of tripartite confrontation since then, The strength of Mojia village suddenly changed from the weakest state of Wu to the powerful state of Wei.


    Chang sun''s house and Chang sun Chong''s room were in a mess. The wine smelled like heaven. Chang sun Chong collapsed on the bed.


    "Master!" a servant who waited on Chang sun Chong saw the arrival of the gloomy Chang sun Wuji and knelt down in fear.


    Chang sun Wuji looked at the muddy Chang sun Chong. His face was cloudy and sunny. After a long time, his face said fiercely: "when he wakes up, you tell him that I will tolerate you for the last time today. If there is another time, you will lose not only a woman, but the qualification of the eldest son of Chang sun''s house."


    The servant on one side hurriedly said, "don''t worry, sir. I''ll pass it on to the young master without a word!"


    He has also been in changsun''s house for a long time. Naturally, he knows changsun Wuji''s character. I''m afraid he will really do what he says. If changsun Chong loses the qualification of his eldest son, he may not be as good as a common people''s son.


    In the residence of Confucian journals, although Wei Si''an looked embarrassed, he did not sink like Chang sun Chong. After all, he just stole chicken instead of rice, so he could only bury his resentment in the bottom of his heart.


    "The Confucian journal truthfully reports this matter without any prejudice." Wei Si''an can only bear it no matter how unwilling he is. After all, this is related to the reputation of the royal family. Wei Si''an has no choice but to be dissatisfied.


    "Yes!" editor in chief Ma breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid of wesan''s irrational behavior on impulse.


    For a moment, Merton''s news spread around Chang''an City, and suddenly several families were happy and several families were sad.

 Chapter 722

    "See the emperor!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, in front of all civil and military officials, Merton bowed and solemnly saluted.


    Before, Merton set the wedding date, but empress Chang sun and Mrs. Qin came to preside over it. Merton didn''t see Li Shimin. Now the wedding date has been set, so Merton naturally wants to go to the court to thank Li Shimin.


    "Excuse me!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    Now that the wedding date of Merton and Princess Changle has been set, Li Shimin has to accept this reality. The original prejudice is much less. Besides, Merton''s bride price makes him very satisfied. Naturally, he looks at Merton.


    "Congratulations to your Majesty on having a good son-in-law." the ministers congratulated.


    If Merton had not been engaged to Princess Changle, I''m afraid the dignitaries of major aristocratic families would not let go of this golden turtle son-in-law. Everyone knows that once any family marries Merton, it will certainly rise rapidly in a short time. Now Merton marries Princess Changle, which has stopped the idea of aristocratic families and dignitaries.


    "How time flies! In a twinkling of an eye, all my daughters will be married!" Li Shimin sighed. In a twinkling of an eye, all his daughters have been married. It won''t be long before they will be upgraded to Grandpa and grandpa. Anyone can sigh that time flies.


    Many old ministers who had fought with Li Shimin could not help feeling that most of their children had begun to marry.


    "It is said that mohou is a magic mirror worth thousands of gold as a bride price, and the old minister is itchy. I wonder if your majesty can open his eyes to the old minister." Cheng Yaojin smiled and couldn''t wait.


    If it were any other minister, Merton would doubt his ulterior motives. However, Cheng Yaojin was born with this generous character. I''m afraid he was really curious.


    Other ministers also moved in their hearts. They were overwhelmed by the magic mirror of the whole harem. If they were not curious, it must be a lie.


    "Why is it difficult?"


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he immediately showed a proud smile and a loud voice. If such a magical bride price can shock the ministers, it will naturally make his face shine.


    At that moment, with a big hand, a one person high dressing mirror was soon carried by several eunuchs to the Tai Chi hall. When Merton offered the bride price, he made two more mirrors and dedicated them to Li Shimin and the empress Chang sun respectively. This side is the one dedicated to Li Shimin.


    When people looked at the scene in the mirror, all officials were shocked and couldn''t say a word.


    "It''s an eye opener! Once this mirror comes out, I''m afraid no one will use the bronze mirror." Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath into his airway.


    Other ministers also nodded one after another. Naturally, as men, no women are so obsessed with the mirror. They just looked at it. But everyone knows that with this mirror, I''m afraid the blurred copper mirror will no longer be used.


    Li Shimin immediately showed a complacent look. The emergence of magic mirror ink technology is the biggest opportunity for Datang to alleviate the copper shortage crisis.


    Fang Xuanling moved in his heart and immediately realized the purpose of benefiting the country and the people. He was shocked in his heart and suddenly turned his head and said, "ink sacrifice wine, can this mirror be produced in mass."


    Merton looked at Li Shimin, shook his head and said, "the production of such mirrors is very cumbersome, and the cost is amazing. I''m afraid it''s difficult to produce in mass. However, the inferior developed silver mirrors can be produced in mass. Although the clarity is not as good as this mirror, it''s much better than ordinary copper mirrors."


    Li Shimin was not dissatisfied with Merton''s nonsense. After all, the higher Merton lifted the magic mirror, the greater the Royal interest.


    Moreover, the magic mirror is a sharp weapon he used to pit the money of western countries. If it is mass produced, it will not become the price of cabbage. With the silver mirror, the value of the magic mirror can be realized to the greatest extent.


    "Silver mirror? Isn''t that too expensive!" Fang Xuanling frowned. In contrast, the value of silver is much more expensive than copper money. In the end, it''s not good to be short of silver instead of copper money,


    Merton explained: "naturally, not all mirrors are made of silver. It''s just a thin layer of silver paper. The cost is less than half of that of copper mirrors."


    "If so, it''s really a skill that benefits the country and the people." Fang Xuanling nodded.


    Other ministers nodded one after another. Even some stubborn censors put down the prejudice of Qiqiao pornographic skills. After all, mirror making technology is too important to the Tang Dynasty.


    The ministers congratulated again, and then returned to their respective positions. Li Shimin nodded slightly to pound.


    Pound strode out, holding the imperial edict, said in a shrill voice: "the marriage between Merton and Princess Changle follows the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker. They are happy with each other, which is in line with the etiquette and household marriage law. They are both husband and wife, which is a natural match. Merton is specially designated as the prince-in-law.................."


    "Thank you, your majesty," said Merton.


    The marriage of ordinary people needs to be signed in the county government. I''m afraid there is no better proof than the imperial edict for the Royal Princess to become a monk. There is no legal obstacle to the marriage between Merton and Princess Changle.


    The ministers congratulated again. There was a lot of celebration in the Tai Chi hall.


    Suddenly Quan Wanji suddenly stepped out of the line and said, "I don''t know what to say. What''s wrong?"


    Li Shimin frowned, but he didn''t stop: "Aiqing naturally has to say?"


    Quan Wanji bowed and said, "you are the minister. The princess is the royal blood, the Lord, and the ink sacrifice is the minister. When the princess marries, isn''t it better to match the LORD with the minister? Wei minister thinks it''s still better to match the minister with the Lord. Please give Princess Changle a princess house, and the son-in-law is still the princess, so as to show the royal dignity."


    "Still the son-in-law?" Quan Wanji said, and immediately all the ministers looked at each other. This is indeed a demonstration of the Royal reputation and is very in line with the Confucian etiquette of kings and officials, but it is not good news for the son-in-law. In that way, the son-in-law is not like a redundant son-in-law among the people.


    Merton suddenly turned black and looked at Quan Wanji badly. The old man wanted to make trouble again.


    "I think what Lord Quan said is reasonable. The princess is a royal person. She is in the prosperous place of the imperial palace. If she suddenly marries, I''m afraid she won''t adapt to food and accommodation. If she builds a princess house alone, she can''t be wronged." another imperial historian echoed.


    Suddenly, many Confucian officials spoke in succession and agreed with the proposal of Shang''s son-in-law. Li Shimin couldn''t help feeling excited. Shang''s son-in-law can not only show the royal status, but also protect his daughter from injustice, which is of great benefit to the princess.


    More than that, Merton''s eyes are not good. Almost many courtiers who marry the royal family are frowning. The Royal Princess said they can''t control it. If there is another son-in-law, there will be no way for the son-in-law to survive, and the princesses of the Tang Dynasty don''t have many peace points!


    However, Quan Wanji is standing at the commanding height of the monarch and his officials. If the officials refute, they will inevitably be crowned with a high hat. For a moment, important officials such as changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling who married the royal family all focused on Merton.


    Merton married the legitimate Princess Changle. I''m afraid the marriage between Merton and Princess Changle will directly determine the pattern of Princess marriage in the future.

 Chapter 723

    "Lord Quan only remembers that the king is the subject, but he doesn''t remember Confucianism. There is also the husband as the wife. It''s ironic that Lord Quan is a great Confucian scholar, but he takes it out of context." Merton snorted coldly.


    Quan Wanji retorted without shame: "you are the subject, the husband is the wife, and the father is the son. Among the three subjects, naturally, you are the subject, and what the old minister said is not wrong."


    Many literary officials could not help showing their arrogance. The reason why Confucianism was valued by emperors of all dynasties was that the way of being loyal to the king was a trump card. Moreover, in the marriage of princesses before the Tang Dynasty, it has always been said that the Lord married the emperor and the daughter.


    "Well, in my opinion, it''s a big mistake," retorted Merton.


    Quan Wan Gideon sneered and said, "do you think the Mohist School''s way of being loyal to the king is very wrong?"


    Even if Merton would oppose Shang''s son-in-law, he would have thought of the reason to splash dirty water on Merton. It can even be said that the thing he proposed Shang''s son-in-law was the pit he dug for the Mohist son. If Merton agreed, he would be unable to lift his head like a redundant son-in-law from now on. If Merton opposed, it would be an iron evidence of being unfaithful to the king.


    Merton retorted, "what I said is very wrong, but the Mohist school has mechanically applied the way of kings and officials to the way of husband and wife. It''s just a crowning and Li Dai."


    Quan Wanji tried to say: "ordinary couples naturally have no such hidden worries. However, the princess is the king in the palace and married again as a wife, so there is a compromise between the son-in-law and the horse."


    "According to what you mean, if the princess gets married, her mother-in-law and father-in-law will salute the princess. Will the etiquette of worshipping the high hall be changed when the princess gets married?" Merton asked.


    When Merton finished, many important officials who were engaged to the royal family suddenly turned pale. If they were allowed to salute their daughter-in-law, I''m afraid his old face wouldn''t hang up.


    "After all, my father-in-law is an elder..." Quan Wanji shouted bad in his heart and stammered to explain.


    "Didn''t lord Quan just say that you are the leader of the Chen Gang?" Merton attacked the son''s shield with the son''s spear and fought back.


    Quan wanjiton''s face stagnated and he was speechless.


    "If the imperial concubines in the Imperial Palace marry into the Imperial Palace, they are also kings. If the provincial parents see their parents, according to the meaning of Lord Quan, should their parents give their daughters the gift of kings and ministers?" Merton pressed step by step.


    Quan Wan Gideon''s face changed. If parents saluted their daughter, wouldn''t it be a corruption of human relations?


    Li Shimin looked embarrassed and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. If so, the harem would be in a mess.


    "Weichen doesn''t mean that!" Quan Wanji quickly defended.


    "Lord Quan means that only the princess and her son-in-law can exercise the way of kings and ministers." Merton said unintentionally.


    Quan Wan Gideon was like grasping a life-saving straw and said, "yes! Yes! That''s what the old minister meant."


    "The next officer will sue Lord Quan for deliberately destroying the marriage of the princess." Merton hit back.


    Quan wanjiton was out of breath. He couldn''t believe it. He looked at Merton, and other important officials unexpectedly watched the reversal of the good play.


    "How can I destroy the marriage of the princess? Do you think the MOH family will repent?" Quan Wanji said sternly. He has always taken the initiative to attack the MOH family. He didn''t expect to be bitten by the MOH family today. If Merton takes the game of losing both sides, I''m afraid he won''t benefit Quan Wanji.


    Li Shimin''s face sank on the Dragon chair and stared at Merton.


    Merton Lang said, "Your Majesty, the Mohists advocate universal love and advocate equality between husband and wife and love each other. Naturally, they will not use their husband as their wife to coerce Changle. Moreover, I believe Changle will treat my minister the same way. Moreover, my parents died early and there is no relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Therefore, it is nonsense to say that adults Quan are more worried."


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little. It was indeed some of Merton''s worries, which had nothing to do with him and Changle.


    "The old minister is not aiming at Princess Changle, but complaining about grievances for other princesses!" Quan Wanji quickly saved himself regardless of the fire breathing eyes of other important ministers engaged to the royal family.


    Merton sneered: "this is what Mo sued! The princess and her son-in-law live alone in the princess''s house. The son-in-law must be separated from his parents. Doesn''t it reduce the chance for the son-in-law to be filial? Weichen thinks that if a man with filial piety is afraid of the reputation of unfilial, he will resist marrying the princess. If so, wouldn''t it be a mistake for the princess."


    Filial piety is also a powerful ethics of Confucianism. Merton once again used the spear of Confucianism to attack the shield of Confucianism. What Merton said is not empty. In the Song Dynasty, it was popular to worship the son-in-law, and the son-in-law''s status was very low. At that time, officials who were admitted to the Jinshi were reluctant to marry the princess to avoid affecting their official career, let alone the number one scholar, Chen Shimei''s case, which was widely circulated in later generations, is just a play.


    The only example of the number one scholar marrying a princess in history is the period of emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty. Zheng Hao married Princess Wanshou. It is worth mentioning that Zheng Hao was forced.


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly changed. It''s not just that a filial man doesn''t want to marry the princess. I''m afraid even some backbone people don''t want to marry the princess. After all, a dignified man doesn''t want to grovel to a daughter, even if the person is a princess who looks like an immortal.


    In this way, men with filial piety and pride are unwilling to marry the princess. They are all soft bones. How can people who follow the trend be a good match? Merton sued Quan Wanji to destroy the princess''s marriage.


    "That''s not what the old minister meant?" Quan Wanji said in fear. He thought he was standing at the commanding height of morality, but he didn''t expect to eat the consequences in the end.


    "How can the way of kings and officials be confused with the way of husband and wife? Officials think it is not advisable to be a son-in-law." Fang Xuanling took the lead in opposing. If Fang Yiai marries an ancestor at home, it will be the end of the Fang family.


    Changsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng also objected one after another. After all, Merton has been fighting for them. Merton and Princess Changle are in free love, which has little impact. If they don''t speak again, I''m afraid they will suffer in the end.


    As the important officials stated their positions, Quan Wanji''s face turned gray. He immediately knew that this time he was completely planted under the clever teeth of Mohist Zi. Even the imperial governors who had helped him before kept silent for fear of causing trouble.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath: "the royal family also abides by the law. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law should be paid an audience by the princess to become the beauty of the country. From today on, when the princess marries in the future, she needs to salute her mother-in-law. Don''t mention it again when the Emperor''s son-in-law says that the princess marries is an eternal example."


    With the exception of Merton and Chang sun Chong, almost all the people who are engaged to the Royal Princess are the legitimate second son. If there is another emperor''s son-in-law, I''m afraid even the legitimate second son won''t marry the princess.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" all the ministers immediately relaxed, especially the important ministers who married the royal family.


    "Wei Chen didn''t have this intention, but thought of the princess wholeheartedly!" Quan Wanji struggled to death.


    Merton sneered: "If you shouldn''t worry about adults Quan, you shouldn''t work adults Quan. In order to marry the princess, Mo has already bought a house next to Mo''s house. It has been built secretly for nearly a year. Now it has been largely completed as a new marriage house. As for diet, Mohist glass greenhouse, four seasons evergreen, fruits and vegetables, you will never let the princess feel aggrieved in food and accommodation."


    If others say that they will not let the princess be wronged, some people may say that this person is talking big, but from the mouth of Mohist Zi, I''m afraid no one will refute it. Mohist cuisine is unique in the world, and Mohist technology is superb. Let alone build a new house, it is not difficult to give them enough time and materials to rebuild a Changle palace.

 Chapter 724

    "The old minister is guilty. Please punish him!"


    Quan Wanji''s face was pale and repeatedly apologized. This time, he was disgraced. He not only didn''t pit Merton, but offended many important officials, but also annoyed Li Shimin.


    "Lord Quan just needs to do his own job well, and the Royal interior doesn''t bother Lord Quan." Li Shimin frowned and said coldly, and he couldn''t help but be afraid.


    If he had just listened to the slander and really asked the princess of the Tang Dynasty to choose a son-in-law by her son-in-law, I''m afraid there would be no good marriage for the princess in the future, wouldn''t he have cheated his daughter.


    What Li Shimin didn''t know, however, was that the princesses of the Tang Dynasty were extremely open. In the Tang Dynasty, more than 80 of the more than 200 princesses could not marry out. It would be nice to have more than 80 married out in the form of a son-in-law.


    "The old minister knows his crime!" Quan Wanji said with a pale face.


    All the officials looked at Quan Wanji with a little more pity. All the time, Li Shimin was very polite to all the officials. He almost didn''t publicly embarrass an official. After this, I''m afraid Quan Wanji won''t have the face to stay in the court again.


    However, no one has mercy on Quan Wanji. Today, Japan is a royal wedding, but Quan Wanji has dampened his interest and embarrassed the atmosphere of the court.


    Just when all the officials were silent, Yuan Tiangang, the imperial heavenly supervisor, stepped out and said, "today is a royal wedding. Taking this opportunity, I also have a wedding to congratulate my majesty."


    All officials couldn''t help looking at Yuan Tiangang for the wedding of the Imperial Academy. You should know that Taoism is the national religion of the Tang Dynasty. The Imperial Academy has a unique status and rarely speaks in the court hall. Now it suddenly makes a noise. How can we not surprise all officials.


    "Oh! Yuan Aiqing, please!" Li Shimin said.


    "Your Majesty once ordered Weichen to observe the celestial phenomena to measure the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty. Weichen''s teachers and disciples lived up to the expectations of the public and finally made the book back pushing map. Please give your majesty a lesson!" Yuan Tiangang bowed down.


    "Back pushing picture!"


    Morton was suddenly surprised. He had heard about the famous back pushing picture in later generations, but he didn''t expect to see it again. Although many later generations claimed that the back pushing picture was fabricated by later generations, it can be proved that Yuan Tiangang''s back pushing picture must be outstanding, otherwise it won''t spread for thousands of years.


    "Oh! Present it quickly." Li Shimin said with great joy.


    The emperors of all dynasties did not care about their national fortune. The Sui Dynasty was so powerful that it was just the death of the second emperor. The Tang Dynasty has not yet restored the national strength of the Sui Dynasty. Li Shimin naturally wanted to know how his national fortune was?


    "Yes!"


    After Yuan Tiangang finished, Li Chunfeng bowed out and respectfully presented a divination book with both hands.


    Li Shimin took the back pushing map and opened it. He saw that the back pushing map was full of divinatory symbols and prophecies, which was very obscure and difficult to understand. Li Shimin thought he had read through the unique knowledge of Taoism, but he was still confused!


    "Yuan Aiqing, the back pushing picture is extremely mysterious. I can''t understand it. Why don''t you explain it to me?" Li Shimin flashed in his eyes.


    Yuan Tiangang bowed and said, "tell your majesty, the secret of heaven is obscure, and Wei Chen''s teachers and disciples are shallow. Originally, they were unable to spy on the secret of heaven. They all rely on the help of Mo wine worship teachers and disciples to help Taoists develop the realm of peeping at heaven. Only then did they spy on a glimmer of the secret of heaven and get a little advice. This book has a total of 64 hexagrams, which will be fulfilled one by one in the future."


    "Peeping at the sky!" Merton was confused. After thinking for a moment, he remembered that the so-called peeping at the sky was not an astronomical telescope.


    The civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty could not help turning back and forth between Merton and Yuan Tiangang. No one thought that the Taoist school cooperated with the Mohist school again. It seems that they have made a wonderful thing.


    "Peeping into the heaven?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but turn his eyes to Merton, but now is not the time to ask this. Li Shimin asked with concern: "do I have a clue about the National Games of the Tang Dynasty?"


    Yuan Tiangang frowned and a flush appeared on his face. He said reluctantly, "with the help of external forces, the master and apprentice of Weichen peeped into a trace of heaven''s secrets and found that the national fortune still exists after the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years. As for the future, it is beyond the ability of our teachers and apprentices."


    "Congratulations, your majesty." the ministers immediately congratulated.


    Li Shimin was overjoyed when he heard the speech, but said modestly, "the national fortune has lasted for thousands of years. Isn''t it more than two weeks? I don''t think so. I''m satisfied to be able to continue the twenty-four emperors in the Han Dynasty."


    "Your Majesty is too modest. The foundation of the Tang Dynasty will last forever. It is said from generation to generation that only twenty-four generations can be complacent." eldest sun Wuji knows Li Shimin''s mind best, and his face refutes it.


    Other ministers agreed one after another, and everyone raised their airs. Taking this opportunity to show their loyalty, Li Shimin couldn''t help but be happy.


    "It''s so difficult to pass it on from generation to generation. I''ve been diligent all my life, lest the foundation of the Tang Dynasty be destroyed. As for future generations, I''m powerless." although Li Shimin was happy, he was still very sober.


    Merton moved in his heart and said, "the ancients said: the past does not forget the teacher of the future. Since ancient times, there are countless examples of the prosperity and decline of all dynasties, not only in the Central Plains, but also in the Far West. Your majesty ordered to sort out the reasons for the success or failure of the rise and decline of all dynasties at home and abroad, check the deficiencies and make up the omissions, and compile a book to pass on to future emperors. It is not impossible for our Tang Dynasty to pass on from generation to generation."


    Merton knows that the purpose of Sima Qian''s Zizhi Tongjian is to guide and summarize many historical experiences and lessons for the rulers to learn from, which is helpful to govern the country and stabilize the country. However, it is only written from the standpoint of officials.


    As an eternal emperor, if Li Shimin wrote a book on the basis of maintaining his rule, there might be a book that would not be inferior to Zizhi Tongjian. The history of the Tang Dynasty may have a different result. At least there are the weapons to restrain the emperors of future generations, so that the imperial power will not lose its restriction.


    "What did Marquis Mo say? This is a good policy?" all officials moved in their hearts when they heard the speech. Now all kinds of theories of immortals have been cracked one by one. Heaven and man induction in the Mohist school has been cracked one by one by the Mohist school. There is no longer anything to restrict the emperor. If Li Shimin compiles an emperor book, does it mean that there is a means to check and balance future emperors.


    Li Shimin can''t help but brighten his eyes. Since ancient times, hundreds of families have taught ordinary people how to behave in the world. There has never been a book on how to become a qualified emperor. Now in the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid only Li Shimin is qualified to compile it.


    If the royal family also had a scripture to guide the emperor''s administration, wouldn''t it be handed down for all ages? And didn''t he who compiled this book, like Confucius and Mo Lao Zhuang in the Pre-Qin Dynasty, make the book holy, and the benefits to the Tang Dynasty are obvious. After all, the emperor doesn''t want his dynasty to inherit for all generations.


    "OK, then I''ll take it as my duty. I''ll take care of the rise and fall of the dynasties of all dynasties. I''ll ask Lord Yan to collect and sort it out?" Li Shimin looked excitedly at the ancient road of master Yan.


    Yan shigu is a master of contemporary historiography. He is the most suitable person who is proficient in the historical records of the past dynasties.


    "Merton, you are responsible for the rise and fall of the dynasty of the far western country. It is for reference." Li Shimin looked at Merton and said.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei!" Merton received the order. He can be said to be the person who knows the West most in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, he will be responsible.


    "This book is a summary of the emperors of the dynasty. I decided to name it emperor book." Li Shimin said in high spirits.


    So far, as the highest guiding ideology of the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial Book officially began to be compiled, which also set a precedent for the emperors of the past dynasties to write books and make speeches.

 Chapter 725

    "This is the mirror of heaven?"


    On New Year''s Eve, the bright moon was hanging high. On the Stargazer''s platform, Li Shimin looked at the strange cylindrical object facing the sky in front of him and was amazed. Beside him, Merton, Yuan Tiangang and other officials of the imperial celestial supervisor were accompanied.


    The full moon hangs high in the sky, and the bright moonlight sprinkles on Chang''an City, which complements the lights of Zhuque street. Tonight is new year''s Eve. Ordinary citizens enjoy the lights on Zhuque street, but Merton can only force a cold wind on the star viewing platform.


    Originally, he was going to invite Princess Changle to enjoy the lantern, but Princess Changle refused on the grounds that it was inappropriate to meet before marriage. Before he could regret, Merton was caught by Li Shimin.


    "Your Majesty, it will be hundreds of times stronger than human eyes when it is used to peep at the stars. All the stars in the world are close in front of you. That''s why I got this artifact and peeped out many hidden stars to get a trace of heaven!" Yuan Tiangang looked at the astronomical telescope in front of me with a look of amazement.


    Merton couldn''t help but look at the hidden star. In his opinion, it was just that he couldn''t observe it with the naked eye and found it with a telescope.


    "Is it so magical?" Li Shimin said eagerly.


    "Your Majesty, look, this is the faint star that is about to disappear. At the moment, it is invisible to the naked eye. You can only observe it for a moment by peeping into the sky. This is the Taibai star..." Yuan Tiangang adjusted the angle and motioned Li Shimin to watch.


    The faint star is mercury, which is closest to the sun. It only appears in the morning and dusk. It is invisible to the naked eye. In addition, Yuan Tiangang shows Li Shimin the starry sky one by one.


    "Is it so magical?" Li Shimin exclaimed.


    Even Merton had to admire Taoism for its uniqueness in astronomy. He even found the annular belt of Saturn and several moons of Jupiter, which were astronomical wonders never found by his ancestors.


    "It all depends on the help of Mohism!" Yuan Tiangang thanked sincerely.


    "Taoist yuan, you''re welcome. If he doesn''t have a Taoist priest, even if it''s magical, we''ll be confused!" Morton said modestly.


    This is the time for the Taoist to show his face. Naturally, Merton will not steal the limelight of the Taoist without interest.


    Yuan Tiangang looked at Merton with satisfaction and said with regret: "today is new year''s Eve. There are few stars in the sky. If the stars emerge when the moon sets, it is a good time to observe the celestial phenomena."


    Li Shimin smiled, looked at the bright moon and said, "although the stars are hidden, the bright moon is shining. Since ancient times, the saying of Chang''e running to the moon has spread widely. I also yearn for a long time. Today I want to see the land of heaven and see how majestic the so-called heavenly palace is."


    Yuan Tiangang and Merton looked at each other and suddenly looked bitter. The moon is the easiest object to observe. How can Taoism miss it? However, when Yuan Tiangang looked at it with an astronomical telescope, he understood Merton''s intention.


    In their hearts, they blamed Merton for causing heavy losses to the Taoist immortal system with hot-air balloons. However, Merton handed over the astronomical telescope to the Taoist school. The Taoist school observed the real face of the Taoist school for the first time and immediately understood Merton''s intention. If the Taoist school wants to study the celestial phenomena and the astronomical telescope comes out, I''m afraid the myth of the Moon Palace will be called a bubble unless the Taoist school abandons it.


    However, curiosity killed the cat. Since ancient times, countless ancestors of Taoism have unlimited imagination about the starry sky. Now they have a chance to find out who can stand it.


    There are gains and losses. Taoism used this to create the back pushing map, the first wonderful book of Taoism. However, it is destined to disclose the truth of the moon.


    Yuan Tiangang knew there would be today when he decided to give the back pushing picture. At present, he was helpless and said, "please prepare yourself. Sometimes the real scene is not as beautiful as we thought!"


    Merton nodded solemnly.


    Li Shimin looked puzzled at Merton and Yuan Tiangang who played riddles. With a cold hum, he looked down at the telescope. With the advance of the telescope, a bright and round moon suddenly slowly turned into a devastated sphere.


    "Is this really the moon?" Li Shimin exclaimed. He couldn''t believe it. He raised his head, looked at the still bright and beautiful full moon with his naked eye, and looked down at the devastation in the astronomical telescope. He couldn''t accept this reality for a long time.


    If a peerless beauty looked at from a distance, everyone was in love. Once he walked in, he found that each other was covered with pockmarks. The real moon completely destroyed Li Shimin''s previous fantasy of the Moon Palace, not to mention the word-of-mouth Moon Palace, the magical cinnamon tree and the sad and beautiful Chang''e running to the moon. At this moment, the fantasy in his heart was cracked, and only the most real moon.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "this is the real moon. There is no majestic heavenly palace or Chang''e fairy, only the bumps."


    "How do you know that these round pits were made by impact?" Li Shimin asked, still unable to believe this fact.


    As like as two peas, he said: "the strength of Mohist school is to study the strength. This is the circular pit formed by the impact force. If your majesty does not believe that you can use stones to pound mud, you will get the same round pit."


    "Eh!" Li Shimin immediately concluded. Merton used simple mud as an example to let him instantly understand the principle. After all, who had no such experience when he was a child.


    Li Shimin saw it again several times, and then he had to accept the fact. He couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "the world likes to use the moon to compare beautiful women and recite poetry against each other. If you let him see the real face of the moon, I''m afraid there will be no poetry chanting the moon in the world."


    Merton couldn''t help but look embarrassed. If he let countless beautiful poems chanting the moon disappear, he would be guilty.


    "This is the fault of the minister!" Merton admitted his mistake. "But if you let the minister make a choice, the minister will still do so. Compared with the beautiful lie, the micro minister is more willing to understand the real side, eliminate the false and preserve the true. This is the unremitting pursuit of the Mohist school."


    "So is Taoism?"


    The master and apprentice yuan Tiangang couldn''t help nodding. Once the astronomical telescope came out, it was Taoism that suffered the most. The Taoist immortal system was hit hard again. If they chose to hide the astronomical telescope, Merton would naturally take the initiative to cooperate. However, Taoism decided to take the initiative to break the myth of the moon. This courage is really admirable.


    Li Shimin can''t help thinking. As an emperor, he doesn''t know that no matter how beautiful a lie is, it can''t be compared with the precious competition. But as he grew older, the dream of longevity gradually grew in his heart, but it was pierced one by one by the Mohists, which made him feel rather bad.


    Merton naturally noticed this, gently came forward, turned the telescope and aimed at a noisy rosefinch street in the distance: "compared with the illusory heavenly palace, I think this busy world is better."


    The stargazing platform is a building in the Imperial Palace, second only to the Tai Chi hall. Standing on the stargazing platform, you can see the lights on Zhuque street. However, with the advance of the camera, the traffic on Zhuque street seems to be in front of you.


    Ladies, lanterns, Youlong and jugglers are close to each other with the help of binoculars.


    "This is the fairyland on earth!" Li Shimin sighed.

 Chapter 726

    "Can this thing see so far?"


    Li Shimin was suddenly surprised. He couldn''t believe looking at Merton. The nearest shop from the star viewing platform to the rosefinch street should be three miles away. How could Li Shimin not surprise him that he could clearly see the figures under the rosefinch street and the lanterns!


    However, when he put down the telescope, what he saw was just a light. He couldn''t see anything at all. However, with the help of the telescope, it was as clear as before.


    Merton nodded and said, "the purpose of this research is to help people see things in the distance like myopia glasses and presbyopic glasses. Yes, the purpose of this object is to look far. It is more reasonable to call it a telescope than to see the sky."


    "Telescope?"


    Li Shimin nodded approvingly. The name is really worthy of its name. How can Li Shimin not be shocked when you can see Zhuque street from the star viewing platform at such a distance.


    Merton said proudly, "it''s night. Although there is bright moonlight, it affects the line of sight. If it''s a sunny day, I''m afraid this thing will see further?"


    "How far can you see?" Li Shimin asked.


    Merton silently calculated: "when the weather is fine, if you stand high, you can certainly see five miles away, and you may see a blurred scene ten miles away. However, this is the first generation of telescope. With the further improvement of Mohism in the future, you can certainly see farther?"


    "Ten miles is enough!" Li Shimin said excitedly,


    Yuan Tiangang looked at the excited Li Shimin puzzled. Merton understood and said, "Your Majesty wants to use this thing in the war between the two armies?"


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with appreciation and said, "yes, this thing can look far. If our scouts hold this thing, they will be able to find the enemy first, find out the enemy''s reality and seize the opportunity. The value of this thing alone can''t believe."


    At this moment, he no longer has the regret of the destruction of the legend of the heavenly palace. In an instant, he returns to the emperor who made a military expedition. If the two armies were in battle, our senior general would see the situation between the enemy and us clearly with a telescope. The arrangement of troops is like an envoy, and its importance can be imagined.


    "Your Majesty''s insight is like a torch, and I admire it!" Merton had to admire Li Shimin''s military accomplishment. The purpose of letting Li Shimin see the rosefinch street is to lead out the function of the telescope. I didn''t expect that Li Shimin had been keenly aware of it before he pointed it out.


    "It''s just a pity that it''s too big to carry!" Li Shimin stroked the long tube of the telescope in front of him and said with regret:


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. After you go back, you will certainly improve again and offer your majesty a telescope that is easy to carry and can look further." Merton promised.


    "There are gains and losses. The ancients honestly didn''t deceive me. Today I''m too open-minded." Li Shimin said with a loud smile. The regret of the collapse of the laurel myth just now was swept away. With this telescope in hand, it''s more than an illusory fairy.


    Yuan Tiangang nodded in agreement. The true appearance of the moon shattered the laurel myth, the Taoist immortal system was damaged again, and Li Shimin''s dream of long life died. However, Li Shimin got a telescope, the Taoist celestial phenomena went further, and there were wonderful books such as push back pictures, which made people sigh at one gain and one loss.


    "OK, tonight is new year''s Eve. I won''t disturb you." Li Shimin waved.


    "I''m leaving!" Merton and Yuan Tiangang stepped down.


    Tonight is new year''s Eve. Princes and princes go to enjoy the flower lanterns in Zhuque street. The palace ban is not closed. Merton goes out of the palace, waves goodbye to Yuan Tiangang, and can''t wait to run to Zhuque street.


    When Li Shimin returned to the Lizheng hall, he saw the empress changsun waiting in the hall. He asked differently, "how can you do it yourself? Take care of them?"


    "Today is not new year''s Eve. Several people want to see the lanterns, so I let them go." empress Chang sun came forward.


    "Changle has gone too?" Li Shimin said suddenly.


    "Yes! What''s the matter?" empress Chang sun didn''t understand.


    Li Shimin remembered the figure of Merton who couldn''t wait to leave. He suddenly realized that the etiquette of not meeting before marriage can hinder ordinary people. I''m afraid it has no constraints on the Mohist school.


    "For the sake of the telescope, let your boy go first." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    On the rosefinch street, lanterns are shining high and the flow of people is blazing.


    This year''s Lantern Festival was even more popular last year. With the construction of brick roads and the popularity of four-wheel carriages, people from Luoyang came to Chang''an city to enjoy the lights. Almost every day, many carriages rushed to Chang''an City in the city with brick roads.


    In addition, the love story between Merton and Princess Changle is widely spread, which adds a bit of charm to the new year''s Eve Lantern Festival in Chang''an city. Therefore, this year''s new year''s Eve Lantern Festival is particularly lively, and people come and go in the whole street.


    Under a bright lamp in Zhuque street, the two figures quietly stood side by side. Liu e turned her head to one side and could only pretend to ignore their small movements.


    "Why are you here? Doesn''t it mean you can''t meet before marriage?" Princess Changle was shy. Fortunately, the lights were dim and the people around didn''t know each other, which made Princess Changle relax a little.


    Merton sniffed, "that''s a bad habit. It was stipulated that you couldn''t see one side before marriage? Don''t you and I often meet?"


    "You''re not cheeky!"


    Princess Changle was angry and went down the slope. She didn''t want to see Merton, but she was afraid of gossip.


    However, along the way, both sides have experienced too much gossip, which is well known all over the world. In their view, meeting before marriage is just a small thing.


    "Let''s go and enjoy the lanterns. It''s new year''s Eve. How can we miss it!" Merton Lang said.


    He and Princess Changle fell in love on New Year''s Eve last year. Now the lights are shining on Zhuque street, as if they had met at the beginning.


    Walking in the lively rosefinch street, they were like an ordinary lover. They were surprised to see a wonderful acrobatics. Even a small ornament could make them curious about the selection for a long time. Merton broke several lantern riddles and won a beautiful lantern. The Lord of Changle picked it in his hand and showed it off like a proud peacock.


    On both sides of rosefinch street, from time to time, the beautiful singing of the singer came. What they sang was their love word "jade case ¡¤ New Year''s Eve". The people around talked about Merton''s love story with relish. They listened with interest and looked at each other from time to time, which could not help but breed feelings in their hearts.


    They toured the whole Zhuque street and left their figures everywhere, but they were still not happy until Liu e hinted several times on the branches of the moon that they were separated.

 Chapter 727

    Wedding new house! This is not only the practice of later generations, but also the Tang Dynasty.


    From the previous single village, Mojia village solved the single problem in the village at the fastest speed in two years. Of course, there are the reasons for the continuous rise of Mojia village and the good situation. In addition to the reasons for the gradual prosperity of the villagers, Mojia village directly configures a new house for each new couple, which has a direct relationship.


    In this era of the Tang Dynasty, ordinary people only had mud embryo houses covered with thatch. Except for the landlord and where there would be brick houses in the city, the brand-new brick houses in Mojia village are no less than the current villas.


    In addition, Mohist children strive to make progress. They have a new house when they get married and the village is rich. Naturally, a daughter is willing to marry Mohist village. After all, no parent is willing to let his daughter marry and suffer all his life.


    As the greatest contributor to the change of Mojia village, Merton is about to get married. Naturally, it is necessary to rebuild a new house. As early as Merton and Princess Changle got in love, the Mofu has begun to secretly prepare Merton''s new house.


    At that time, it happened that a house in the east of the Mohist house wanted to change hands. The Mohist village found the original owner, spent a lot of money to put it under the plate, and has been secretly rebuilding it. Now it has taken a year, and the general building is finally going to be completed.


    "One, two!"


    With the loud cry of several Mohist children, with joint efforts, the wall blocking the Mohist house and the east courtyard collapsed, revealing a delicate courtyard. Originally, the courtyard had been abandoned, but after one year''s improvement of Mohist village, it had changed greatly.


    In the center of the east courtyard, a three storey building stands out. Anyone will notice it at first sight. If someone in later generations is here, they will recognize it at a glance. Is this the common villa structure in later generations?


    "How is this possible?"


    If any bricklayer in Chang''an city saw this scene, it would be extremely shocked, because brick houses can only be built on one floor. If they are built on two floors, they will lack support and will crack due to gravity in a short time. However, the house in the east courtyard of Mofu has three floors.


    "Young master!"


    The Mohist children who were cleaning bricks and tiles saw Merton coming, got up and saluted.


    Merton nodded back and stepped on the chaotic bricks to the east courtyard villa.


    In front of the villa, a Taoist with black hair was throwing stones into the gray mud in front of Wu Meiniang. Soon, round pits were exposed in the flat mud.


    "The crater on the surface of the moon was really made by impact." Wu Meiniang couldn''t help jumping. Now that Taoism has offered astronomical telescopes, Merton naturally has nothing to hide. As a major disciple of Mohism, Wu Meiniang naturally watched the surface of the moon with the telescope owned by Mohism for the first time.


    "What benefactor Wu said is true, and I think so too?" the dark haired Taoist turned his head and said in a loud voice. He was an old acquaintance of Morton, Taoist Changsheng.


    As the leader of the Taoist sect of waidan, he naturally had the honor to witness the astronomical telescope. He couldn''t help nodding. Now he has given up the way of pill and turned to the art of material immortality. The collapse of the laurel myth is regrettable and not unacceptable to him.


    "If you test in a sand pile, you will have the same result, and you don''t have to splash mud and water," Morton said.


    "Master!" Wu Meiniang quickly turned around and said shyly.


    The Taoist priest Changsheng turned around and said, "the Mohist family is blessed. Martial benefactor is very spiritual."


    "Taoist priest Mu praised." Wu Meiniang said shyly.


    "Mo Hou came to see his new house today!" asked Taoist Changsheng.


    Merton nodded and said, "if this house can be built, thank Taoist Changsheng for his help."


    "I would also like to thank Lord Mo for giving Taoist waidan a chance. If it weren''t for the support of the Mohist school, the Taoist school would be able to create strange things such as cement. Although it took a year, it didn''t live up to Lord Mo''s expectations." Taoist priest Changsheng looked at the mud that Wu Meiniang had just thrown stones, revealing a trace of excitement.


    Before Merton set out for Tuyuhun, he specially found the Taoist school and formulated the task of requiring the Taoist school to develop forged lime and seek new building materials. The Mohist paid and the Taoist school contributed. Finally, it took nearly a year to refine usable cement.


    not bad I''m afraid it''s cement that can make three layers of bricks and tiles. If today''s cement production is too small, how many more layers does Merton want?


    "What''s the quality of cement today?" Merton asked.


    "I have gradually controlled the process, and the success rate has been improved a lot, but it all depends on the Mohist reinforcement method, which makes the cement strength double." Taoist Changsheng said.


    When the cement was just developed, although it can solidify rapidly and be as strong as a rock, the strength under stress is not high. Taoism has studied it for many times, which made qualified cement. In addition, Merton mixed the reinforcement in the cement, which immediately doubled the strength of the cement and the strength under stress.


    "Steel is steel and cement is bone. It''s naturally very hard. It''s not surprising that this is the natural avenue of the human body!" Morton said modestly.


    Mixing steel bars with cement to increase strength is certainly a technology of later generations, but it is not difficult to understand in ancient times. When the ancients made clay embryos, they also added straw to the mud to increase toughness. The Mohist road construction also used straw bedding method to increase the strength of the foundation. It is a truth, but Merton, a black sheep, is more extravagant, The use of steel as bones and muscles has doubled the cost, but the effect has also doubled.


    Taoist Changsheng looked at the three-story villa in front of him with the same satisfaction. He had seen Merton''s design drawings. The whole villa will take steel as the reinforcement, cement as the bone and brick as the muscle, which is very in line with the Taoist way of nature.


    "But..." Wu Meiniang, who had been observing carefully, frowned and stopped talking.


    Merton noticed Wu Meiniang''s expression and said, "just tell me what you have. Mohists and Taoists have no bad habits that can''t be violated."


    Wu Meiniang said frankly, "the house built by master and Taoist priest is really strong, but it''s too ugly! Master is sure that the princess will like to live in such a house."


    Wu Meiniang said that the red bricks pointing to the villa were mixed with white cement beams. The appearance was extremely ugly. Not to mention that compared with the palace in the Imperial Palace, it was also very ugly compared with other houses in the Mo mansion. I''m afraid if the royal family knew that the princess lived in such a house, I''m afraid it would give Princess Changle a princess mansion without saying a word, Let Merton''s son-in-law directly.


    Taoist priest Changsheng on one side was embarrassed. Obviously, he had already found this problem, but he didn''t say it.


    Merton laughed and said, "Taoism pays attention to both internal and external cultivation. Naturally, so is the house. With internal beauty, external beauty is indispensable. It''s just to come in person for this matter.


    Merton said and waved his hand. A group of Mohist children came to Merton with several heavy carriages and said, "young master, what you want has been delivered."


    Taoist priest Changsheng was curious for a while. Could it be that the Mohist school didn''t use any unique skills?


    Merton came forward, touched the square objects on the carriage, turned to Wu Meiniang and asked, "as a teacher, build a new house with the human body Avenue. Do you know what can be comparable to skin in this world?"


    "Comparable to skin?" Wu Meiniang frowned. "Is it jade?"


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "you look too high at being a teacher. How precious jade is. Even the royal family is reluctant to use it, let alone a teacher."


    "Is what the master said porcelain?" Wu Meiniang had an idea. Building a house is nothing but civil stone. Porcelain is as smooth as skin. I''m afraid only porcelain is the most appropriate.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang with appreciation and said, "yes, being a teacher is preparing to take porcelain as the skin."


    Merton said, opening the carriage to reveal the palm sized rectangular white and flawless tiles in the car.


    "This is white porcelain, the white porcelain of Xing kiln in Hebei?" Taoist Changsheng felt the greasy glaze and exclaimed.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, this is really the white porcelain of Hebei Xing kiln."


    Datang porcelain is very developed. It often makes various appliances with porcelain. When Merton placed an order for Hebei Xing kiln, the style had been ordered. The process of flat ceramic tile is simpler than that of porcelain. The only difficulty is the compression process, which is the strength of Mohism.


    The two families hit it off immediately. Soon, the first batch of tiles in the Tang Dynasty were burned and transported to the Mo mansion as soon as possible.


    "Take porcelain as the skin!"


    Wu Meiniang looked at the white tiles in front of her and couldn''t help opening her mouth. Even if the construction hasn''t started yet, he can imagine how beautiful it would be once the house in front of him was covered with tiles.


    However, this is not over. With the arrival of another Mohist carriage, the window frames loaded with transparent glass are transported down. In the sun, they reflect bursts of light, just like lenses..


    "Take the mirror as the window!" Taoist Changsheng couldn''t help taking a deep breath.


    In the end, he underestimated the idea of Mohism. He took steel as the tendon, cement as the bone, brick as the muscle, porcelain as the skin and mirror as the window. Once the house is completed, it will shock the whole Tang Dynasty.

    When Merton pushed the wall, he would not hide the progress of the new house construction. With tiles pasted on the outer wall with cement and glass windows, a beautiful villa gradually took shape.


    All the people who saw it were amazed. Such a unique shape and different materials made people startled. After word of mouth, it soon spread more and more widely in Chang''an city. In particular, the design concept of Mohism using the human body Avenue as the framework added a bit of legend to the rumors.


    "People all over the world use steel muscles and iron bones to describe people''s strength, but today mojiazi goes the opposite way. He uses the human body avenue to build new houses and takes the best steel produced by Mojia village as muscles and bones. It can be imagined how strong it is. I''m afraid it can''t be used for a lifetime."


    "It is said that at least 5000 Jin of steel was used."


    "How much will it cost?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the pan restaurant, people talked about it one after another.


    There is no doubt that no one doubts that mojiazi''s house building concept will not succeed. What everyone marvels at is the materials used by mojiazi. You know, the price of steel is very expensive. Five thousand kilograms of steel is very valuable!


    "It''s nothing? You know what this cement is. It''s refined by Taoist alchemy. Its value cannot be estimated. It''s powder. Once it sees water, it can solidify like a rock in one day. It must be destroyed by great force." a merchant flaunted his hearsay.


    "Needless to say, the Mozi custom-made white porcelain in Xingyao kiln, Hebei Province. It is made into thin ceramic tiles and pasted on the outer wall, supplemented by transparent glass mirrors. Without opening the window, the sun can enter directly. It is not only bright in the house, but also extremely warm in winter, which is much better than window paper." a landlord laocai said with envy on his face.


    In this era, white paper is used as the window. Although it barely shows some light, it is very limited. It is far from transparent glass, but even if they envy it, it is futile. Not to mention that the output of glass in Mojia village is not large, they are not sold out. Even if it is sold, it is expensive. How can ordinary people afford it.


    Everyone talked about it. Just by imagination, we can know how amazing the new house is.


    "Hum! Mojiazi!"


    On the second floor of Pan''s restaurant, Quan Wanji snorted coldly and put his wine glass on the table with an angry face.


    He is now frustrated in officialdom. He hated Li Shimin before. In addition, when he was the imperial censor, he offended many officials. He took the opportunity to be killed by these people and impeached him one after another.


    Now the imperial court''s order has been issued, and he has been transferred to other places as an official. I''m afraid it will be difficult to return to the center of the Imperial Hall in a short time, which makes Quan Wanji, who thinks highly of himself, feel how oppressed.


    "Brother Quan, don''t be anxious. As long as I''m waiting, the Mohist school will not be arrogant." Yu Zhining, who was on the side, shared a bitter hatred.


    Yu Zhining is also a great master of Confucianism. Quan Wanji has repeatedly targeted the Mohist school. Among them, he helped. Quan Wanji was not investigated for a while, but was seized by Merton. Yu Zhining was naturally dissatisfied.


    "Brother Yu, be careful. The Mohist school should not be underestimated, or I will learn from the past." Quan Wanji warned.


    Yu Zhining shook his head and said, "don''t worry, brother Quan. If I don''t have a complete plan, I won''t act rashly. Brother Quan didn''t find that the new house of mojiazi is really exquisite. I believe the princess will like it, but there is a biggest problem."


    Quan Wanji thought, his eyes flashed and said, "is brother Yu talking about the cost?"


    Yu Zhining nodded proudly and said, "yes! In order to build a new house, all the things used by the Mohists are rare and expensive. I just calculated that the cost used is at least 500 yuan."


    "More than 500 passes?" Quan wanjiton''s eyes lit up when he built the house. In addition to bricks, all the materials used by the mojiazi were extremely rare and expensive in the market. It was a conservative estimate to say that it was a 500 pass. What a luxury.


    "Is brother Yu impeaching Mohist and Princess Changle''s new house too luxurious?" Quan Wanji thought.


    "Not bad!" Yu Zhining said proudly.


    "Brother Yu must not. I ended up like this by getting involved in the marriage of Princess Changle. Brother Quan, don''t repeat my mistakes!" Quan Wanji reminded me kindly.


    Yu Zhining sneered: "let alone the princess''s wedding room, the prince is extravagant. Yu also dares to write to his majesty."


    Yu Zhining didn''t talk big about this. In history, Li Chengqian built a house in the east palace. Yu Zhining criticized him for being too luxurious. Li Chengqian played with eunuchs around him. Yu Zhining directly compared Li Chengqian to Qin II, which shows how stubborn he is.


    Quan Wanji moved in his heart and didn''t persuade him any more. Instead, he bowed his hand and said, "in the future, the court will give it to brother Yu. In these days when Quan is away, the Confucian journal hopes that brother will take care of him."


    Yu Zhining was delighted and said, "don''t worry, brother Quan. I will do my best."


    The reason why Yu Zhining acted so well in front of Quan Wanji and couldn''t wait to attack Merton was that he wanted to take over the Confucian journal. As the discourse power of Confucianism, the Confucian journal played an increasingly important role. Whoever held the discourse power in his hand was in his hand. Yu Zhining had long thought about it in his heart. Now Quan Wanji is an official, and the Confucian journal just has no owner, Yu Zhining will not miss this opportunity.


    The two tacitly made an exchange. Quan Wanji wanted Yu Zhining to avenge himself, while Yu Zhining wanted to accept Confucian journals. They just took what they needed.


    "I wish brother Yu a successful start."


    "I wish brother Quan a pleasant journey."


    The two raised their glasses together and drank it all at once. They laughed and said, the same smell!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The Confucian journal acted quickly, but in two days, a special issue had been issued, even adding fuel and vinegar. It directly doubled the cost of the house, reached a thousand passes, and immediately detonated the whole Chang''an city.


    Thousands of dollars to build a new house, ordinary people to build a brick house with labor is only about 20 dollars. If you add the land money, it will cost more. Confucian journals directly call this new house the most expensive house in Chang''an City, and even ridicule that mojiazi has forgotten the concept of Mohist conservation.


    "Black sheep!"


    Countless Confucian scholars shook their heads and lamented, looking at the Mohist son''s hatred of iron and steel.


    Later, Yu Zhining took the lead, and other imperial officials played one after another to impeach the Mohist school. Extravagance and debauchery became a common practice. For a moment, the government and the public were all over the city.


    "Yu Zhining?" Merton frowned. He didn''t know how he provoked the character.


    Master Li explained: "Yu Zhining is a great Confucian scholar. This time Quan Wanji left the capital, Yu Zhining took over the Confucian journal."


    Merton suddenly realized that Yu Zhining must have just taken over as a Confucian journal and wanted to borrow Merton''s power.


    Mo San angrily said, "young master, it''s just to build a wedding house. Naturally, you should repair it? Confucian journal is meddling. Young master, don''t worry. Let Mo journal refute it."


    Master Li shook his head and said, "it''s not just a matter of Confucian journals, but the imperial historian has played a role in the imperial court. His majesty has repeatedly advocated thrift, and the building of Merton is indeed too luxurious. I''m afraid it''s difficult to do it!"


    Mr. Li looked at the new house reflecting the sun outside the window. Anyone who looked at it knew that it was expensive.


    Merton sneered: "are these royal princes fed up and don''t do their own work, but when they care about these trifles, don''t we have to go beyond the system to build a house in the Mohist family, and we have to go through their permission."


    Master Li immediately smiled bitterly. Merton said these imperial historians, but in fact, he didn''t say Confucianism. With the rise of Mohism, there were more and more contradictions between Confucianism and Mohism, and he was very embarrassed in the middle.


    Now he has shifted his focus to the master''s college, and the matter of Mo magazine has gradually been transferred to Mo San.


    "Young master, there are people from the imperial court. Please go to the court and argue for yourself." suddenly Fu Bo came in a hurry.


    Merton suddenly stood up and said, "OK, young master, I''ll meet Yu Zhining in person."


    He did not pay as much attention to fame as Li Chengqian in history. He could only endure it, but increasingly encouraged the arrogance of these Confucian scholars.

 Chapter 729

    "Ink offering wine!"


    With the loud announcement of a bodyguard, Merton walked up to the Tai Chi hall and walked through the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty with his face unchanged,


    "Please see your majesty!"


    Merton went to the ministers and bowed to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin nodded and said to Yu Zhining, "Yu Aiqing, the ink sacrifice has arrived. If you have anything to ask, just ask!"


    Merton built a beautiful house as the new house of Princess Changle. From the perspective of a father, his son-in-law was so sincere to his daughter that he was naturally happy. However, as an emperor, he had to set an example by banning the luxury of the imperial court three or five times.


    "Excuse me, do you want to build a three story new house?" Yu Zhining shouted.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, it''s true. Weichen''s new house is for his wedding in January. It''s three floors high, about three feet high, and it doesn''t exceed the system."


    All officials nodded, and the three Zhang high was indeed not beyond the system. The whole Tai Chi hall was about six Zhang high. Besides, there were three Zhang high buildings everywhere in the streets of Chang''an city.


    Yu Zhining asked again, "although it has not exceeded the system, whether it uses steel, cement refined by Taoist alchemy, porcelain produced by Xing kiln in Hebei, and glass with a radius of one meter."


    Merton admitted without hesitation, "but there is this!"


    When the Manchu courtiers heard Merton''s admission, they couldn''t help but be in an uproar. Steel, porcelain and glass are very expensive things in Chang''an City, not to mention the cement refined by Taoist alchemy, which is very valuable.


    "Tell your majesty that Mo sacrificing wine is in vain as a royal relative. It is extremely luxurious to build a wedding house in order to cling to the princess. If everyone follows suit, will it not reproduce the arrogance, extravagance and debauchery of the Sui Dynasty? Please think twice." Yu Zhining bowed.


    Li Shimin was expressionless, turned to Merton and said, "Merton, what can you argue for yourself?"


    Merton sneered: "before, Lord Quan said that he was afraid that the princess would be wronged and was not used to living in the palace. He was worried that he would be wronged in Weichen''s home. Now Weichen has rebuilt his new house, but Lord Yu has been criticized as too extravagant. You have said all the black and white. What do you want me to say? According to Lord Quan''s meaning, how do you want to repair the house to make you satisfied when marrying the princess?"


    Many legitimate sons and royal betrothed dignitaries still remember Quan Wanji''s words. Now when they see Yu Zhining''s Memorial, they can''t help frowning. The wind direction of the censor will fall here and there for a while. When their legitimate son marries the princess, I''m afraid it will be as difficult as it is today. If it is repaired well, the censor will impeach and repair poorly, and the princess will be dissatisfied, It''s a dilemma.


    Yu Zhining said stubbornly, "it''s not wrong for Lord Quan to worry about the princess. I''m sure you''re extravagant and dedicated. How can you be confused. Your new house is more than a luxury. A house costs thousands of dollars. I''m afraid the whole Chang''an city can''t find such an expensive house!"


    Even Li Shimin could not help but frown. The cost of a house was thousands of yuan. I''m afraid it couldn''t even cost so much money to build a palace. Merton really went too far.


    Merton looked at Yu Zhining curiously and said with a surprised face, "who told you that I spent thousands of yuan on it."


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly: "the Confucian journal has listed one by one. The materials used in your new house are extremely luxurious. First, you spent at least 5000 kilograms of steel. Steel is an important weapon of the country. It''s not enough to make swords for front-line soldiers, but you buried it in the wall. It''s more than luxury. It''s a waste. What do you say about this."


    Merton suddenly realized, "you say it''s steel! It''s more than 5000 Jin, there''s 8000 Jin of steel. They''re all produced by their own workshop. They''re used casually and don''t spend money!"


    "Home made!"


    "No money!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone was stunned. Even Li Shimin was stunned by Merton''s fallacies. It seems that the income is reasonable! What money do you talk about with your own things!


    Yu Zhining immediately poured blood into his heart. He didn''t expect that Merton didn''t calculate the price of steel on the market, but it was as if he had no wood to build his own house and cut down his own tree.


    "Do you know the market price of Mohist refined steel? How much is the value of 8000 Jin of steel?" Yu Zhining roared.


    Merton waved carelessly and said, "I don''t care how much the market price is. My Mojia village started with work. The steel produced is like the grain knocked down by farmers. Can''t you even eat your own grain because of the high grain price?"


    Suddenly, many courtiers couldn''t help laughing. Among them, Cheng Yaojin had the biggest laughter and couldn''t help thumbing up to Merton.


    Merton''s words are not rough. It''s nonsense that he can''t use the things produced by his own family. In this case, Yu Zhining is indeed a bit nosy.


    Yu Zhining''s face turned red and roared, "are you using it yourself? How wasteful it is that you buried 8000 gold steel into the wall. What''s the excuse for the ink sacrifice?"


    Merton pretended to say: "That''s what you said! Since Mo saw his Royal Highness the king of Wei break the secret of the Earth Dragon turning over last year, he was always worried. What if the Earth Dragon turns over in Chang''an City, Mo doesn''t care. If the princess is in danger, he will die. This 8000 kilograms of steel as muscles and bones, even if the Earth Dragon turns over, can still ensure the safety of the new house ¡£¡±


    The officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not help but move in their hearts. Although it was rare to see the Earth Dragon turn over, no one could guarantee that they would not meet it. If they had such a strong house, wouldn''t they rest easy,


    Yu Zhining looked helplessly at Merton''s nonsense. The Earth Dragon turned over once in many years. How can it happen to appear in Chang''an City? In this era, there is no sense of earthquake prevention. In his opinion, Merton is just nonsense.


    Merton looked at Yu Zhining jokingly and said, "as for the waste you said, it''s nonsense. When steel bars buy Cement, they won''t rust at all. 180 years later, if the house is renovated and smashed, the steel bars inside are still intact. It''s still a good piece of steel. Why waste it?"


    "One hundred and eighty years?" many ministers of the Ministry of industry could not help nodding. The Mohists used real materials. In their view, once the new house is completed, it is not a difficult problem to support one hundred and eighty years. There are not many houses on the market that can support one hundred and eighty years. According to this calculation, there are also advantages.


    In an instant, many ministers were excited. The new houses built by mojiazi were safe, strong and durable. Many people began to wonder whether they would build one for themselves in the future.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t help his eyes. For the royal family, the words "safety" seemed to have a special meaning. Merton''s new house was as safe as a fortress.


    Yu Zhining suddenly felt powerless. As expected, mojiazi was a catfish and couldn''t keep his hand. Originally, he impeached mojiazi, but unknowingly became a publicity meeting for mojiazi''s new house. He obviously felt that many ministers were excited after hearing the explanation of mojiazi.


    He originally wanted to prohibit this unhealthy trend, but he didn''t expect that more and more ministers were excited and wanted to have such a house. Is there any reason.


    So he decided not to tangle with Merton on the steel bar, but to transfer the attack point to the ceramic tile. It was produced by Xingyao kiln in Hebei Province, and it was not produced by the Mohist''s own workshop. Moreover, porcelain was also extremely expensive. He didn''t believe that the Mohist could give any reason.


    "You mean ceramic tiles! There are two kinds of ceramic tiles. One is pasted on the wall to look beautiful. It looks like white jade from a distance. It can also prevent the house from being exposed to the wind, sun and rain. The other is pasted on the ground inside the house. It is as smooth as a mirror, and even a trace of dust can be seen." Merton said with a puzzled face.


    "Stick it on the ground!" Yu Zhining felt that his IQ had been insulted. Porcelain was as white as jade. Most of it was used as utensils, tea sets and dishes. The mojiazi not only pasted it on the wall, but also made it into ceramic tiles and pasted it in the house for people to step on.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but have a headache. He was deeply speechless about Merton''s idea of flying around. He paved the road with bricks and paved the house with porcelain. Is there anyone else in the world who dares not step on Merton''s feet?


    Other ministers were also stunned. They really couldn''t think of what kind of experience it would be to spread porcelain all over the house. However, when they think about it, they all know that it must be an ultimate enjoyment. Many adults were born in rich families. They couldn''t help but sigh that the Mexican family would enjoy it.


    "Paste the wall with porcelain and lay the roof. You are a luxury lunatic." Yu Zhining roared with a red face. I don''t know whether he was angry or thought he had grasped Merton''s handle.


    "By the way, I didn''t pay for these ceramic tiles. I have provided the ink technology for making ceramic tiles for Hebei Xingyao, and Mojia village has made a special machine for pressing porcelain. It''s just right to use these ceramic tiles to pay off." Merton said easily.


    Hebei Xingyao is a famous official kiln in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, it can''t be said that there is no money, but Mojia village proposes to pay the bill with goods, and Hebei Xingyao naturally wants 10000.


    Yu Zhining is extremely depressed. According to Merton''s theory, I''m afraid he''ll have to change his own machinery without spending money.


    "A square meter of glass?"


    "Home made."


    "What about the cement refined by Taoist alchemy?"


    "The two companies cooperate."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Yu Zhining became more and more angry. The glass was also made by himself, and the cement was jointly produced by the two Mohists. Even the workers who built the house were Mohist children. According to Merton, when he built such a luxurious new house, he only bought some bricks and spent some money.


    "In the adult, indeed as if the eye is like a torch, the boy spent five yuan to buy so many bricks, but also are cheap red brick, if it is blue brick, I''m afraid there will be more money, but the kid only from six products salary is meager, unable to let his highness live in green brick house, is really ashamed of his Majesty''s love."


    The Minister of Manchu Dynasty silently watched Merton''s performance. How much is the brick worth? I''m afraid I can buy as many bricks as I can take out a piece of glass.


    Yu zhinington turned dizzy with anger. Fortunately, he was much younger than Quan Wanji, so he didn''t make a fool of himself.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t stand it. He said coldly, "so, should I give you a raise?"


    Merton immediately said with a dry smile: "no, no, after the minister''s son-in-law and lieutenant take office, he will start from the fifth grade. At that time, the salary should be enough."


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "since you didn''t spend much money building a house, I''ll spare you this time for your sake of being eager to get married."


    Now Merton''s house has been built, and the wedding date of Princess Changle is approaching. Can Li Shimin tear down the house? Where will Princess Changle get married at that time! Now that Merton has justified himself, Li Shimin is just stepping down the slope.


    "Your Majesty, this wind can''t rise! Your majesty doesn''t severely punish the Mo family today. Over time, Datang will be the first to follow suit and everyone will build such houses!" Yu Zhining cried out sadly, with an impassioned look of worrying about the country and the people.


    Other imperial officials also made a series of exhortations, and the whole Tai Chi hall was suddenly silent.


    Seeing this, Merton was angry in his heart and suddenly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, I have a word and am willing to argue for myself."


    Li Shimin took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in the center, and said positively, "speak!"


    Merton got up, looked around at the imperial officials who asked for orders and said: "At the time of the ancestors, the people were not well clothed, and people mostly wore animal skin linen clothes. Is it a luxury when the first person draped silk on his body? Most of the ancestors lived in caves. Is it a luxury when the first ancestor went out of the cave and built a wooden house for himself? Later, the wooden house became a brick house. Now it doesn''t seem to be a luxury, but more and more ancestors wear it from now on On silk, more and more people live in wooden houses and brick houses. No one thinks it is a luxury anymore. "


    Many dignitaries nodded thoughtfully.


    Merton continued: "The three-story reinforced concrete building built by Mo is not the first wooden house, the first brick house and the first silk. The house is a home. People want to live in a safe, spacious and comfortable home. The house can''t be washed down by water, burned by fire and collapsed by earthquake. It can keep warm in winter and cool in summer. Even on cloudy days, the house is still open Transparent hall, who doesn''t want to own such a house? "


    When Merton finished, almost all the ministers were silent. Many ministers who had experienced poverty could not help sighing that owning such a bright house was probably the dream of all the poor people.


    "Mo is getting married and getting married. I need to build a strong and beautiful house as a new house, and this house is the best house I can build. First, there is no extravagance and waste. I use gold, silver, jade, silk and satin, precious and famous trees. Second, I don''t occupy the house widely. The land used is only 30% of the size of Tai Chi hall. Don''t say I''m to marry the princess Just built. Even if I married a little Jasper, I would also build such a house to make her live like a princess. "Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin nodded in agreement. He was relieved that Princess Changle didn''t see the wrong person. Mozi was indeed a good match.


    "You think that Mo''s luxury is popular, but Mo believes that he has created a new way of construction. Just like the first person to build a wooden house, it is not luxury, but to make his family live better. All the materials for Mo''s new house can be produced in mass. Over time, such cement and reinforced houses are all over the Tang dynasty like brick and tile houses and wooden houses, There is no hidden danger of burning several streets, no fear of termites eating wood, no risk of house collapse. This is not a boy''s wild talk, but it will come true one day. You will find how ridiculous today''s accusation is. "Merton snorted coldly.


    "This is just your idea, just sophistry for your luxury!" Yu Zhining argued strongly.


    Merton looked coldly at Yu Zhining and said, "the purpose of the contention of a hundred schools of thought is to make the people of the world live better, not to criticize and block in a disguised form an attempt that should be beneficial to the world. Your saint''s way has deviated, my Lord."


    "Yellow haired child, I don''t know what to say. He talks wildly about the way of saints!" Yu Zhining was furious and denounced Merton.


    He has always considered himself a great Confucian. Confucianism has reached its peak, but he can''t stand being accused by Merton of the way of saints.


    "On the second day of February, at the ink art exhibition outside Nancheng gate, the boy is waiting for adults to listen to the way of Mohist saints." Merton solemnly saluted and handed over a ticket.


    "Well, Yu will certainly come to the door and learn it in person!" Yu Zhining said gnashing his teeth.


    So far, the original reason for impeaching Merton has become a laughing stock. Naturally, no one mentioned it again. Yu Zhining originally thought that even Li Shimin would favor the Mexican family in order to take care of Princess Changle, and would certainly make compensation for his frank advice.


    However, under the sharp words of mojiazi, he became a villain who made trouble. This time, he deeply realized the difficulties of Quan Wanji. Mojiazi was so difficult.

 Chapter 730

    In the harem, the Changle hall is full of festivity.


    In the whole Changle hall, from the palace maid to the eunuch, everyone is busy with a smile. In less than a month, the princess will be married. Naturally, there must be a lot of work to prepare.


    In the hall, Princess Changle is knitting her own wedding clothes. The exquisite wedding clothes have been gradually formed in the dexterous hands of Princess Changle, and will be completed soon. Originally, Princess Changle didn''t need to do these jobs, but Princess Changle decided to do it by herself.


    Princess Changle will keep knitting, pick up the sleeve on her body from time to time, stand in front of the mirror and try it, showing a shy and satisfied smile.


    "Sister, no, my brother-in-law was impeached by the censor again!"


    Suddenly, Li Zhi ran in with a flustered face and said loudly that Li Zhi has now become a little secret agent of Changle. As soon as there is news, he quickly ran to report the channel.


    "Ah! What''s going on?" Princess Changle exclaimed.


    "It''s not the new house built by his brother-in-law. It seems to be built very well!" Li Zhi pointed to the content with a Confucian journal in his hand.


    As Merton''s most loyal supporter, Princess Changle didn''t subscribe to Confucianism. Naturally, she didn''t know the news. Hearing Li Zhi say so, Princess Changle won it.


    Seeing the content of the Confucian journal, she couldn''t help but be moved. Relying solely on the description of the Confucian journal, she knew that Merton must have spent a lot of effort for the house, but ended up being impeached by the censor.


    "Go and find out. What''s the matter?" Princess Changle urged and slipped a cake into Lizhi''s mouth.


    "OK!" Li Zhi immediately ran out.


    Soon, it was too extravagant for mojiazi to build a wedding house for Princess Changle. The news of being impeached by the censor soon spread all over the palace.


    "Steel as the reinforcement, cement as the bone.................... mirror as the window."


    Everyone in the harem heard of such a house. Although they didn''t know what cement was, it must be extraordinary to make the Mo family pay so much attention to it. In addition, other extremely precious things were used to build a house. They couldn''t help but envy.


    "Marquis Mo really loves the princess. Glass and porcelain are so precious that they are directly used to build a house."


    "I''m afraid such a house is more luxurious than the princess''s palace!"


    "I heard it''s three stories high?"


    "Isn''t everyone living in midair?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the palace maids immediately talked, and everyone envied. If a man treated her like this, I''m afraid it would be worth all his life.


    "It''s the only thing in the world!" in the Gaoyang palace, the fire of jealousy in Princess Gaoyang''s heart lit up and couldn''t be calmed down for a long time. Why can Changle enjoy the most favorite and perfect love of her father and the only treasure in the world? Even her birth is a legitimate princess.


    Although she has also been given the magic mirror by her father, it is only after Changle! Changle used all the good things first. When it was her turn, Princess Gaoyang thought it was so unfair.


    The imperial concubines in the harem stood in front of the new mirror made of mercury and looked at their beautiful faces and perfect makeup in the mirror. They couldn''t help feeling sorry for themselves.


    "The Mohist son was impeached for building a new house for Princess Changle?" Zheng Chonghua said softly.


    "Empress Hui, I heard that Marquis Mo had gone to the court to defend himself, and now she has gone to the Tai Chi hall?" said a palace maid. The palace maid was a confidant she brought from her hometown in Xingyang and was very loyal to her. When she heard the news, she told Zheng Chonghua at the first time.


    "The Mohists are really poor for the sake of Princess Changle, but it would be wrong for the imperial governors to think that they can hold the Mohists." Zheng Chonghua sneered.


    When she saw the list listed in the Confucian journal, I''m afraid that only the handle of ceramic tile can be considered as offensive. The others are produced by Mohism or have a great relationship with Mohism. I''m afraid Mohist Zi had a self-defense long ago.


    "And that''s your Majesty''s first princess!" Zheng Chonghua sighed.


    After she came to the palace, she found out how high the prestige of empress changsun in the harem and how much Princess Changle was favored as the first princess. Although Merton used very rare things, it was built for his daughter. From this point, the Mohist family has been invincible.


    Sure enough, after a while, news came from the front hall, and the Mohist son retreated.


    "If so, if..." Zheng Chonghua couldn''t help sighing, but didn''t say it. If she met Mo Jiazi in advance, I''m afraid it would have been a different ending.


    I''m afraid the woman to be married is her. She will enjoy the envy of the world. Mohist Zi used the magic mirror as the bride price to build the most perfect new house for her. However, there is no if. Even if she summoned up the courage to take a carriage to Mohu mansion, it would be a step too late and in vain.


    With the end of the chaotang debate, more details of mojiazi''s new house were gradually disclosed.


    Not only the imperial concubines of the Imperial Palace, but also all civil and military officials are extremely curious about how amazing the new houses of the mojiazi are, especially some important officials who are engaged to the royal family.


    Princess Changle is the first princess of the line and the head of all princesses. Now the MOH family has built a new house as a model. I''m afraid they can only build it according to this model when their first son marries the princess in the future.


    This was originally the sharpest handle played by Yu Zhining, but it was defeated by the new house built by Merton. It is not only high cost and luxury, but also a brand-new new building. Although the materials are unique, the effect is also impeccable.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "This is your new house!"


    In the east courtyard of Mo mansion, Li Shimin and many important officials looked at the shocking buildings in front of them in shock. On the outer wall of the three-story new house, white tiles the size of bricks were arranged at random. The whole building was like being made of porcelain, and large windows were pasted with transparent glass, crystal clear.


    The last time Merton came, the external walls had not been tiled and the glass windows had not been installed. Now they have been completed, the whole building has been completely completed and cleaned inside and outside.


    This is more than a new house. It''s a work of art.


    No wonder Yu Zhining played impeachment. I''m afraid anyone doesn''t like such a house. Even if it costs more money, I''m afraid many people are excited.


    "Your majesty and your excellency, please come in!" Merton looked at his masterpiece and nodded proudly:


    Merton reached out and pushed open the transparent glass door and invited everyone to enter the new house.


    Li Shimin took the lead in stepping in. He suddenly felt that his feet slipped. He couldn''t help looking down at the ground. He saw that there were bright and clean ceramic tiles on the ground. He had the feeling that he couldn''t bear to step on his feet.


    "This is the ceramic tile!" Li Shimin carefully stepped on the ceramic tile and looked at the figure reflected on the floor.


    In the Imperial Palace, there are not no floor tiles, but they are all large bluestone slabs. The more precious stones are white marble, but they can''t reach the brightness of ceramic tiles.


    Merton explained: "the biggest effect of ceramic tiles is not to look good, but to be clean. Even a trace of dust can be easily wiped off. Doctor sun often said that diseases come from the mouth. If we don''t touch some dirty things, we will naturally reduce the chance of getting sick."


    Li Shimin nodded approvingly, not to mention that cleanliness makes people less sick. In such a bright environment, physical and mental pleasure will naturally reduce diseases and disasters.


    "This house is really bright!" Cheng Yaojin ran to the bay window and watched the sun shine through the glass. The whole room was like day. He couldn''t help but marvel. His second son Cheng Chuliang was also engaged to Princess Qinghe, and immediately had the impulse to build such a new house.


    Moreover, in addition to the transparent glass, several other walls of the house are painted with white gypsum, which adds a bit of brightness and gives people a very comfortable feeling.


    Other dignitaries were surprised. Gaomen nobles like to build houses high, and what they want is not to have a bright house. However, the biggest disadvantage of high houses is that they are empty and cost a lot of materials.


    Today, the new house in Merton is only one foot high on one floor. Not to mention the hall of the Marquis, even the ordinary brick house is higher than it. However, a piece of glass perfectly solves this problem.


    Moreover, every piece of glass can wipe the open window. Even if you sit in the house, you can enjoy the warm sunshine and the beautiful scenery outside the window.


    Yuchi Jingde knocked on the wall. Hearing the dull sound, he couldn''t help sighing, "this house is really strong."


    But looking at the wall, it''s an inch thick, and it feels very hard. It can be said that it''s an iron wall.


    "All these walls are filled with red bricks and solidified with cement. They are as firm as a rock. Even with heavy tools, they can''t be broken in a short time." Merton nodded.


    At the moment, the walls are painted with gypsum and can not be damaged. Only the side of the stairs on one side shows a lot of white cement. Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin even bend down and beat the cement with heavy objects, but the cement is very strong, just a few white spots.


    "So strong, I''m afraid I don''t have to worry about rats and insects anymore!" Fang Xuanling exclaimed. In this era, there are wooden and brick and tile rooms. Even in the Imperial Palace, I''m afraid rats and insects are inevitable. And the construction of such solid materials will never suffer.


    "It''s as solid as a rock. It really deserves its reputation! I''m afraid only such solid materials can support the three-story building." Yuchi Jingde nodded in agreement.


    "The biggest advantage of this house is that it saves space. The land of Chang''an city is expensive and people all over the world want to settle in the imperial capital. However, the area of Chang''an city is limited after all. In the long run, it will be overcrowded. If such houses are built in Chang''an City, it can accommodate three times the population in an instant. What Weichen said is the latest generation of buildings, which is not empty. Over time, cement will be used The construction of steel bars will be the best way to solve the population explosion in Chang''an City, "Morton said confidently.


    The ministers nodded thoughtfully. This room is just a space of three rooms. Merton built three floors and built nine houses.


    "What''s more, if there are enough raw materials, it''s not impossible for the boy to cover it with ten or eight layers," Morton said proudly.


    Li Shimin immediately breathed. If so, the value of the new house will double.


    However, Merton turned his words and said with regret: "however, if the construction is too high, it will be very inconvenient for people to eat, drink and Lazar. However, these difficult problems can be solved one day. At that time, this new building will shine."


    "I believe that Mo sacrificial wine is not empty. This is indeed a new starting point for my Datang architecture. In this way, even the cost is worth it." Fang Xuanling nodded solemnly.


    New materials, new architectural style, new design concept and larger living space are completely born out of traditional buildings, and compared with traditional buildings, they have obvious advantages. Who doesn''t like such buildings.


    "Merton, please give me an answer. How much does it cost to build such a house!" Li Shimin said, looking directly into Merton''s eyes.


    Immediately, almost all the important officials focused on Merton. Who wouldn''t be excited about such a house? The Mexican family didn''t have to calculate the price when they built their own house. What if they built a house for the princess in the future?


    Merton carefully calculated and solemnly said, "the cost of thousands of Guan is just a rumor of Confucian journals. If according to the quoted price in the market, the house should cost about 300 Guan."


    "Three hundred Guan Qian?" Li Shimin and his officials were relieved. Ordinary people still need 20 Guan Qian to build three ordinary brick houses. I''m afraid it will cost nearly a hundred Guan Qian to build nine houses. If precious wood is used, it will be more expensive. It''s not unacceptable to build nine houses with three hundred Guan Qian.


    For a moment, many people secretly planned, but Li Shimin was here, and they didn''t say what they knew.

 Chapter 731

    Merton''s mind was exquisite. Naturally, he knew everyone''s abacus. He couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "although the cost is not high, there is a great shortage of cement. I''m afraid it will take some time to produce cement in mass!"


    "Cement!"


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. They have gradually understood this frequent neologism. Cement has played a vital role in the completion of a new building such as a three-story villa. However, this cement is called home alchemy, which is impossible to evaluate at present.


    Merton explained: "Your Majesty, we usually use loess for building bricks. However, loess is very easy to be washed away by rain, resulting in house damage. Just like if there is something similar to loess, which is as firm as a rock after solidification, we have jointly developed cement with Taoism. Unfortunately, cement has just been tested successfully, and the output is very small. We haven''t had time for mass production. It has accumulated for several months before we can build these three It''s just a small building. "


    "It took months to refine so much cement?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "and in order to save cement as much as possible, the boy mixed cement with river sand. When building the top floor, he even beat stones into stones and added them. In this way, it is enough to save. If all cement is used, I''m afraid a thousand passes will not be enough."


    In the era of no machinery, it is not only difficult to refine cement, but also a big project to go down the river to catch sand and break stones. Coupled with transportation costs, this is why there is such a high cost,


    "How much money is wasted?" Li Shimin frowned and remembered Yu Zhining''s performance just now. It seems that it cost a little more.


    Seeing this, Merton hurriedly said, "the cement thing is very magical. Naturally, it can not be measured by the constant price. Good steel is used on the blade. It can be used for great purposes where it is appropriate."


    "If you have anything to say," Li Shimin said coldly when he saw Merton''s betrayal.


    Merton smiled awkwardly, "Weichen believes that cement can be used to build bridges in addition to building houses!"


    "Repair the bridge?" Li Shimin said immediately.


    Merton Lang: "Cement mixed with water is like mud. We can shape it in any shape we want. However, once it solidifies, it will be as solid as a rock. It has been very difficult to build bridges since ancient times, and it costs a lot of money and food. Ordinary wooden bridges won''t take long. Stone arch bridges are not worth mentioning except Zhaozhou Bridge built by Li Chun in the previous dynasty. There are even many large rivers that can''t build bridges at all , there is no bridge in the world for a long time. "


    Li Shimin looked at Merton unexpectedly. Others didn''t know him, but he knew that Li Chun, who built Zhaozhou Bridge, was in the same vein of Xiangfu. He didn''t expect Merton to praise him so much.


    "The cement can also repair the bridge, so it can be guaranteed not to be bad?" Zhang Liang, the silent Minister of the Ministry of works, finally couldn''t help but say.


    Merton showed a trace of confidence, pointed to the cement roof on the roof and said: "With steel as the reinforcement and cement as the bone, as long as there is sufficient cement and reinforcement, the cement can also be solidified continuously, just like a whole. It can be said to be the best bridge building material. Not to mention the small Weihe River in Zhaoxian County, even the broad Weihe River, it is not difficult to build a bridge. With time, it is not impossible to even build a bridge over the surging Yellow River and Yangtze River! At that time, days Cutting becomes a thoroughfare. People cross the Yangtze River and the Yellow River without stopping. It takes only a quarter of an hour to cross. What a miracle. "


    "Bridge the Yangtze and yellow rivers?"


    "The natural moat becomes a thoroughfare!"


    "You can cross the Yangtze River and the Yellow River in a quarter of an hour?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton''s words were like magic, which immediately made all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty boil with blood. All along, all dynasties have conquered almost all rivers, but there is nothing to do with the broad Yangtze River and Yellow River. The two big rivers, like natural grabens, hinder the North-South transportation of China and perplex generation after generation. Now the emergence of cement has finally given Datang the hope of conquering the Yangtze River and Yellow River.


    "Of course, we can''t do it in the short term, but with the continuous accumulation of bridge building technology, Weichen believes that if we can build a bridge over the Yangtze River and the Yellow River one day, I''m afraid it must be reinforced cement. This is the best thing to build a bridge." Merton took a deep breath.


    Almost all the important officials nodded subconsciously. Relying on the plasticity of reinforced cement concrete and the firmness of solidification as a rock, they knew that Merton was exaggerated, but it was likely to be a fact.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement and said, "I can wait for time. However, in order to confirm your words, a stone bridge in qujiangchi is in disrepair for a long time, so let the Mohist school build it. At that time, naturally, the Ministry of work will go to evaluate it. I hope I won''t be disappointed!"


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "surely he will not disappoint his majesty!"


    The water flow of Qujiang River is not small, which is not much different from that of the river where Zhaozhou Bridge is located. Merton just praised Li Chun''s Zhaozhou Bridge. Li Shimin was impartial and just compared it with a similar bridge.


    "As the saying goes, the cost of Golden Bridge and silver road..." Merton wondered if repairing the bridge was not a small amount, and Merton didn''t want the Mojia village to be the leader of the injustice.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "the materials are produced by the Mohist School and the labor is allocated by the Chang''an County Government. Didn''t you say you don''t spend money on your own materials?"


    Merton immediately smiled bitterly, and Li Shimin was as sure as he always was.


    However, he didn''t know Li Shimin''s intentions. Merton kept showing off. If he didn''t let him show his blood, how would he explain to all civil and military officials.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei!" Merton said.


    However, he was immediately excited. This was a leap in the history of the bridge of the Tang Dynasty. He was completed by the Mohist school. At the beginning, Xiangfu family cracked the Mohist ink technology, which brought great losses to the Mohist village. This time, he wanted to defeat him in the strongest part of Xiangfu family and convince him.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Brother Mo is so eloquent that he even argues with Confucianism. Yu Zhining is speechless!"


    In the ink mansion, Qin Huaiyu said excitedly.


    After the court debate, the debate between Merton and Yu Zhining had already spread all over the court and the public. For a while, the military attache didn''t have much favor with civil servants. Qin Huaiyu was naturally happy to satirize Yu Zhining.


    "Yes! It''s just building a new house. It''s too much to deceive people. Chumerton protested when he saw Merton''s new house in front of him, but he couldn''t help admiring it. When he first saw such a house, he couldn''t help liking it.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded again and again, and looked strangely in his new house from time to time.


    "Brother Mo, I''m getting married too. I wonder if you can help me build a house like this?" Chumo flatters.


    Merton was surprised and said, "I want to get married too. Doesn''t it mean that it''s time to celebrate the new year?"


    Cheng chumerton said bitterly on his face, "it''s not your fault. You have to let woman 16 get married. Otherwise, can you wait so long? Besides, it''s only ten months away from the new year. Isn''t it right to repair the house?"


    Chumo Ding''s marriage is a woman from a family with five surnames. The diamonds ordered from Merton earlier were sent as love keepsakes. If Merton hadn''t made such a fuss, I''m afraid they would have married long ago. Now the woman is only 16 until the end of the year, and it has been delayed until the end of the year.


    Merton suddenly got goose bumps, quickly hid aside, frowned and said, "you''re not afraid of the censor impeaching you."


    Chumo said with a smile, "the sky is falling and my father is supporting it. Don''t worry."


    Merton was speechless. Cheng Yaojin was in the court. It can be said that no one dared to provoke him. Yu Zhining dared to provoke Merton. I''m afraid he may not dare to offend Cheng Yaojin.


    "Besides, isn''t it 300 yuan? It''s a big deal. The food city won''t be divided this year." Chumo is rich and generous. Cheng Chumo is naturally willing to agree to change a year''s share into such a house.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "forget it, I don''t earn your money. In addition to the ceramic tiles you order in Xingyao, Hebei, you can charge you a hundred times."


    "That''s it!" Chumo nods without hesitation. He knows that he must make a lot of money at this price, but he''s not hypocritical. If Merton gives materials for free, he won''t accept it. That''s just right.


    "We also have a reservation for next year!" Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin scrambled.


    "That''s OK!"


    After careful calculation, Merton sighed in his heart. I''m afraid the original cement output is not enough. Expansion and production increase will happen sooner or later.


    The three got the promise and sat down contentedly. They have rarely been reunited since they graduated from the Imperial College.


    "By the way, zumingjun should be here soon!" Chumo suddenly said.


    Qin Huaiyu nodded and said, "it should be fast. This guy will not miss brother Mo''s ink skill exhibition even if he misses anything."


    After two years of successful holding, the influence of Mohist ink technology exhibition has become greater and greater. It can be said that the annual ink technology exhibition represents the most advanced technology and cutting-edge products of Datang, and countless merchants have made a lot of profits. In particular, last year''s Mohist man-made rainbow predicted that Tiangou will eat the sun is simply amazing.


    Before this year''s ink technology exhibition began, there was a fire. Before February, all tickets had been issued. Now it is difficult to get a ticket in Chang''an City, and many people from other places shouted high prices every day.


    "By the way, it is said that according to the news years ago, Kong huisuo will also come to Chang''an city." Qin Huaiyu suddenly said.


    Suddenly, everyone was silent and looked at Merton. Now the relationship between Confucianism and Mohism is very tense. Merton is a Mohist, and Kong huisuo is the legitimate son of Confucianism. The dispute between Confucianism and Mohism is becoming more and more fierce. I''m afraid they are very embarrassed together.


    Merton pondered for a while and shook his head: "Confucianism and Mohism are a dispute over theories. Our friendship is a personal friendship, and the two do not conflict."


    "Yes!" Chumo smiles.


    The people immediately resumed laughing and covered up the topic just now. However, they all know that they are not students in the period of the Imperial College. Sometimes the situation is not up to people and they can''t choose!

 Chapter 732

    The brick road from Luoyang to Chang''an city is the busiest official road in the world. Unless the road was closed a few days ago by heavy snow, there was a constant flow of vehicles and business trips at other times.


    A long motorcade came slowly from the East, and the uniform two wheeled carriages were particularly conspicuous next to the four wheeled carriages speeding by, which could not help but let everyone look at them.


    Nowadays, on the brick roads of Chang''an City and Luoyang, two wheeled carriages are very rare. They pull goods less, laborious and bumpy. Most of them are replaced by more advanced four wheeled carriages.


    "Second uncle, in my opinion, the four wheeled carriage is more comfortable. Why should second uncle be so stubborn?"


    In the convoy, the curtain of a carriage was lifted, revealing Kong huisuo''s young face. Looking at the four-wheel carriage roaring by, he looked envious and shouted that he had been bumped by the two-wheel carriage.


    An old man with white hair in front of the motorcade angrily said, "the four-wheel carriage is a thing of the Mohist school. You and I are after Kong Sheng. How can we benefit from the Mohist school?"


    Kong huisuo helplessly looked at the stubborn old man and said, "there were four-wheel carriages in the pre-Qin period. Why did Mohist school create them? Besides, we don''t change the carriages produced in Mohist village. Don''t we still have four-wheel carriages in other workshops?"


    "Those can''t. After all, the four-wheel carriages rose because of the Mohist school. We walk outside, which is the face of the Kong family. What do the world think of us taking the four-wheel carriage?" the second uncle insisted.


    "The brick road is still interested in Mohism, and we are not walking on it?" Kong huisuo said with a curl of his mouth.


    "You..." Kong huisuo didn''t open the pot and immediately angered his second uncle.


    Kong huisuo quickly retracted his head and said, "don''t be angry. I''m just worried that your old body can''t support it."


    Kong huisuo kept shaking with the two wheeled carriage. Although the brick road was very convenient, it was not absolutely flat. In addition, the two wheeled carriage had no shock absorption at all, and the effect could be imagined.


    Kong huisuo swayed in the car and couldn''t help being very bored. He picked up two thick stacks of newspapers and periodicals and read them. One is Confucianism and the other is ink. Whenever he saw Merton''s news, he couldn''t help paying more attention.


    "It''s only a year since I left. I''ve missed so many things. Even brother Mo is going to get married." Kong huisuo sighed. Like his ancestors, how can he be willing to do nothing in his hometown? Now he has an opportunity to come to Chang''an city. Naturally, he won''t miss it.


    Although the two wheeled carriage was very slow, the brick road was smooth. Kong''s team gradually approached Chang''an City, and soon a magnificent city appeared at the end of the brick road.


    "Chang''an city is here!" Kong huisuo murmured.


    After a year, he finally returned to Chang''an city again.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Qufu Kong''s motorcade?"


    Outside Chang''an City, people were stunned when they saw the Kong Family flag flying high in front of the motorcade.


    "After the sage?"


    Many pedestrians stood in awe and gave way one after another. The name of Kong Sheng is well known, and the influence of the Kong family can be imagined. However, all people who read books respect the Kong family. Moreover, the imperial court will give a certain reward to the Kong family in Qufu every year. It can be said that Kong Delun, the contemporary master of the Kong family, is extremely preferential.


    "It''s the convoy that praises the saint marquis. Please come in quickly." the guard of the east gate of Chang''an City released directly without any search.


    Under a series of preferential treatment, however, the Kongs are not surprised by their honor or disgrace. It is not surprising that they can meet such treatment everywhere.


    With the departure of the Kong family''s motorcade, the people at the east gate were in an uproar and talked about it one after another.


    "The Confucianists couldn''t sit still. The whole Chang''an city was suddenly lively, and all kinds of people were about to gather together." many people looked at the Kong family''s motorcade and said with a smile.


    This is the fourth of the hundreds of scholars who entered Chang''an City on a large scale. The first Mohist School entered Chang''an City on a large scale, stirring up the situation in Chang''an city. The second is the public loser. The third is the powerful Taoist gate at the Taoist gate conference. Now the Confucius family has finally entered Chang''an City on a large scale. Not to mention the dormancy of Legalists in Mojia village and the strong rise of doctors.


    "The descendants of Kong Sheng have come. Now let''s see how the Mohist school is still rampant." a Confucian student watched the departure of the Kong Family motorcade. A trace of enthusiasm flashed in his eyes and said with complacency. The people from the Kong Family injected them with a shot of cardiotonic. All the Confucian students cheered and cheered.


    "The ink family is going to hold an ink Exhibition on February 2, and at the moment, I''m afraid the people from the Kong family are not good!" a man of insight frowned.


    As everyone knows, the Confucius family''s entry into Chang''an City on such a large scale is probably to restore the decadent situation of Confucianism day after day.


    "The descendants of Confucius are naturally unwilling to lose the exclusive status of Confucianism. I''m afraid Chang''an city will really be a hundred schools of thought this time!" an idle man


    "A hundred schools of thought contend?" they took a deep breath and looked forward to it.


    However, soon, the news that the Kongs in Qufu entered Chang''an city soon spread all over Chang''an city.


    "See you, uncle!"


    In the Confucius Mansion, Kong Yingda respectfully saluted the elder of the Confucius family, and Kong huisuo sat with him respectfully.


    "Talk about the current situation!"


    Uncle Kong Er frowned. He came all the way and found that too many things had changed, which had become something he didn''t know.


    Kong Yingda said with a wry smile: "the second uncle has seen the current situation. Driven by the Mohist school, hundreds of schools have risen one after another. I''m afraid the achievements in three years are more than those in the past hundred years. In contrast, my Confucianism is somewhat dwarfed."


    Uncle Kong Er snorted coldly, "it''s more than dwarfing. It''s like eating old money! We have lost the face of our Confucian ancestors."


    Before that, Confucianism was the only one. In just three years, it was almost caught up by other hundred schools of thought. If you don''t advance against the current, you will fall back. However, the same is true for the contention of a hundred schools of thought.


    "The secret works of Mozi and the secret skills of many Mohists have been startled. The Taoist Neidan school has produced wonderful books such as the back pushing map. The outer Dan school has powder secrets, the doctor''s Hospital and the legalist delusion to be independent. Even the public losers and the mathematicians have made great progress, and what has our Confucianism achieved in recent years?" Uncle Kong Er roared.


    Kong Ying was silent when she arrived at Dayton. In contrast, Confucianism is really eating its roots. It can even be said that since Dong Zhongshu respected Confucianism alone, he has always been based on his old roots. Although Confucianism has achieved the position of exclusive respect, it has lost its enterprising spirit. Since then, there are no more Confucian classics that can hold hands.


    "It''s not without achievements," Kong huisuo whispered.


    "What did you say?" Uncle Kong er said sternly.


    Kong huisuo said boldly: "printing was born, a large number of Confucian classics were widely spread, punctuation and sentence breaks made knowledge more accurate, and the strange Confucian Master Li presided over the master''s college and was determined to popularize education all over the world. Isn''t this all a Confucian achievement?"


    Uncle Kong Er sneered: "you will put gold on your face. Who discovered the printing? Mo San, a son of the Mohist school. Who discovered the punctuation marks? The Mohist school. Even Li duo, a Confucian traitor, is also supported by the Mohist school."


    There was a deep sense of powerlessness when Kong Hui Thornton. Uncle Kong was very stubborn. Once he heard about Mohism, he rejected it all.


    "Now, Confucianism must expand its influence and produce works in the short term. By the way, how about the compilation of the five classics of justice?" Kong Er Shu turned his head to Kong Yingda and asked.


    Kong Yingda''s compilation of the five classics of justice has received the strong support of the Confucius family. Coupled with the emergence of punctuation, there are many differences on the concept of classics. Kong Yingda''s compilation of the five classics of justice can be said to be at the right time.


    "If you go back to your second uncle, you''ve almost finished it. Once the review is completed," Kong Yingda nodded. He originally wanted to wait, but now the situation of Confucianism can''t tolerate his procrastination.


    "This time I brought a lot of Kong''s children. I''ll give them the review and publish it as soon as it is completed." the second uncle said flatly.


    One side of Kong huisuo glanced and said, "it''s not published by printing?"


    Uncle Kong er''s Qi of seven orifices ascended to heaven. After a long time, it slowly subsided.


    "If your grandson knows his mistake, please punish him!" Kong huisuo asked for a guilty plea.


    "Forget it, I''m biased. Confucius said that there must be a teacher for three people. Now the rise of Mohism, the Confucius family can''t avoid it." second uncle Kong said with a decadent face.


    Kong Yingda nodded with deep understanding. He often stayed in Chang''an city. Naturally, he knew how deep the influence of Mohism on Chang''an city was. Now he has gone deep into clothing, food, housing and transportation.


    "In addition, Li duo has such ambition. He is also a character. If he wants to change his mind and leave Mohism, Confucianism is willing to accept him again." Uncle Kong Er took a deep breath and thought he had made a great step.


    The vision of Li duo''s master''s college and compulsory education can be seen by people with a clear eye. If it can be included in the bag of Confucianism and carried forward, its achievements will be unlimited. After all, Confucianism has not had any works that can be sold recently, and Confucianism can barely manage.


    Today, Confucianism can not have much chips, even if he is stubborn, he has to make concessions.


    "Nephew, I''ll arrange it now." Kong Yingda nodded.


    "No, I''ll meet this man myself." Uncle Kong said justly.


    Kong Yingda was stunned and wanted to mention why Li duo was called a strange Confucian. It was not so easy to be persuaded. Suddenly, the housekeeper of the Confucius house hurried to report; "Master, the Mohists have asked for a meeting!".


    "Mohism!" Kong Yingda couldn''t help but look aside at Uncle Kong er. As soon as the Kongs'' motorcade arrived, the Mohists came, and obviously got the news.


    Uncle Kong Er snorted coldly, "the visitor is a guest. Confucianism pays attention to etiquette. Mohism is also a hundred schools as famous as Confucianism. Naturally, we should not be rude. We should see what medicine is sold in the gourd of Mohism."


    "Invite people in!" Kong Yingda said.


    "Yes!"


    The Confucian housekeeper hurried away. After a while, he led Fu Bo into the Confucian house.


    "I''ve seen the toastmaster," fuber bowed.


    "It''s steward Fu. Steward Fu is so polite?" Kong Yingda said.


    Uncle Fu turned his head and saw Uncle Kong Er beside him. He couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and said, "this is an ancestor of the Kong family. The Mexican family Fu is polite."


    "No, Kong Desheng! I''ve seen the Mohist school." Kong Desheng, the second uncle of Kong, saluted. He is very old-fashioned. Although he abides by etiquette, he is extremely arrogant. He did not visit Fubo, but the Mohist school with the same name as Confucianism.


    "De generation, this person is a person of the same generation as the contemporary Confucius family."


    Fu Bo thought in his heart, but he didn''t be rude because of Kong Desheng''s arrogance. "My young master and Young Master Kong are classmates. We shouldn''t be rude when we heard about the arrival of the Kong family''s ancestors. However, my young master couldn''t get away from preparing the ink technology exhibition recently. He specially ordered Fu to send the invitation volume for the ink technology exhibition. Please don''t dislike it."


    Kong Desheng was expressionless and embarrassed.


    "Thank you, uncle." Kong huisuo quickly took the invitation and saluted. He had been to Mo mansion many times, and uncle had treated him very well.


    Fubo didn''t embarrass Kong huisuo, but nodded: "Fumou leaves!"


    "It''s the box of ink technology exhibition!" Kong huisuo looked down at the invitation volume and was stunned. There are not many boxes in ink technology exhibition. Unexpectedly, he gave them a room directly.


    "The Mohists are demonstrating when they invite us to the ink exhibition!" Kong Desheng frowned.


    Kong Yingda frowned and said, "before that, the Mohist family had argued with Yu Zhining in the chaotang hall. They talked about the way of Mohist saints on the day of the Mohist technology exhibition, and the Mohist family personally invited me to wait. I''m afraid they had been prepared long ago. It''s not good!"


    "The way of saints! Mozi didn''t claim that Mozi didn''t get involved in the court. It seems that he can''t help showing his fox tail. He is ready to start talking about the way of Mozi." Kong Desheng said coldly.


    "Second uncle, if you know this and know the other, you will be invincible in a hundred battles." Kong huisuo naturally wanted to go to the ink technology exhibition. He had an idea and couldn''t help encouraging him.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help staring at Kong huisuo. He naturally knew Kong huisuo''s plan. However, he didn''t expect Kong Desheng to slowly nod his head and say, "well, Mohism has been silent for thousands of years, and the world has little understanding of it. Maybe it''s time for Confucianism to know Mohism again."


    Kong huisuo immediately said with great joy, "second uncle is wise!"


    Kong Desheng sneered: "February 2 is still early. I have nothing to do. I''ll meet this strange Confucian Li duo first."

 Chapter 733

    Quchi square in Chang''an city is located in the southwest of Chang''an City, which is the most remote place in Chang''an city.


    However, in the past two years, the status of Quchi square has improved day by day. With the laying of brick roads in Chang''an City and the gradual opening of four-wheel carriages, Quchi square has gradually improved. In particular, the construction of two universities in Quchi square has contributed a lot to Quchi square.


    One is Mr. Li''s master''s college, the other is the Medical College of doctors. At the same time, when a larger college is under construction, but it has been kept secret, ordinary people don''t know, but the upper figures know that this is the military academy to be built.


    In the master''s college, "what the younger generation wants is to solve the illiteracy of the Tang Dynasty. Every day, children can read and understand words, so as not to be illiterate." Master Li said frankly.


    "So you teach these contents." Kong Desheng frowned. In his opinion, there is no Confucian classics more suitable for teaching people truth.


    "This is the quickest way to learn literature. The younger generation decided not to get involved in the dispute among hundreds of schools. After the students know how to read, no matter which hundred schools of thought they choose, it has nothing to do with the younger generation." Master Li waved his big hand.


    "Jump out of the hundred schools of contention!" Kong Desheng couldn''t help shaking his mind. If others would certainly be moved by Master Li''s ambition, but he couldn''t. Master Li could jump out of the hundred schools of contention. He was after the Confucius family and must adhere to Confucianism.


    "Why do you still accept the support of Mohism since you have jumped out of a hundred schools?" Kong Desheng asked.


    "The younger generation is indeed funded by the Mohist school, but they are not partial to the Mohist school. Even in the Chinese language, the Mohist school contains very few. Even if the Mohist school pays for the construction, only two are in the Mohist village." Master Li said without shame. Even Kong Desheng had to admit that Li duo did justice.


    "The Mo family is so kind to give you money without asking for anything in return." Kong Desheng was unconvinced.


    Li duo shook his head and said: "Of course not. The purpose of Mohism has never been hidden. It is to select excellent students from these literate students to join Mohism. Not only Mohism, but also doctors have decided to donate five societies to Confucius College. Naturally, the purpose is to select doctors'' children. Taoist waidan donated two schools. Legalist Han Fuzi also has the same idea, but he is very stingy and unwilling to give up Get the money. "


    Doctors and Taoist waidan school are now rich and generous. As soon as Master Li encouraged them, they also gave generously.


    At this time, Kong Desheng knew the intention of the hundred schools. Students studying in Confucian private schools have been branded as Confucianism from the beginning. Even if they are cultivated, they are difficult to incline to other hundred schools.


    The students cultivated by Mr. Li''s compulsory education have a certain cultural foundation, but they are like a piece of white paper. Naturally, they can be cultivated with confidence. In this way, Mr. Li has received school running funds, 100 families have a source of disciples, and 100 families and Mr. Li''s compulsory education can be said to take what they need.


    "By the way, the master''s college is not owned by me alone, but cooperates with mathematics. In the future, compulsory education will only teach two subjects: Chinese and mathematics. If Confucianism wants to donate to build a school, it can add one more subject to teach four books and five classics." Master Li moved in his heart.


    Now that he has jumped out of the dispute among hundreds of schools, the so-called purpose is naturally that the more schools, the better. He doesn''t refuse any funds.


    "Er!"


    Kong Desheng had a headache. There were many Confucian private schools and colleges, and there was no shortage of students. I''m afraid compulsory education was just a chicken rib for him.


    When Kong Desheng was in trouble, a bell rang. The teaching of Confucius College was over, and a young figure took the lead out of the school.


    "Zu Mingjun?"


    "Kong huisuo!"


    "Why are you here!" they said in unison.


    Zu Mingjun waved the mathematics textbook in his hand and said, "I happened to be idle in Chang''an. I happened to be entrusted by Dr. Shen to teach in the master''s college."


    Shen Hongcai was entrusted by Merton to compile the book "Mathematics" for Mojia village. It is easy to understand. It is the intention of Master Li. The two decided to cooperate immediately. However, Shen Hongcai is now in the Imperial College, and Zu Mingjun is in Chang''an City, which happened to take over the task.


    "So you are what Master Li said about arithmetic!" Kong huisuo suddenly realized.


    "To be idle is to be idle!" Zu Mingjun actually made contributions to the calculation of the stone throwing machine before. However, he did not accept the appointment of the imperial court, but chose to be in the master''s college. It is because here he saw the hope of the rise of mathematics. If everyone in the world studies mathematics, wouldn''t the future of mathematics be comparable to Confucianism.


    Obviously, Kong Desheng failed again. Kong huisuo had to wave goodbye to Zu Mingjun and accompany Kong Desheng to leave in a hurry.


    "It''s a pity that elder Kong doesn''t know the way!" Zu Mingjun said regretfully looking at Kong Desheng''s leaving figure.


    "What the Confucius family wants is just the fame of the Confucius Institute. Is it really for the Confucius Institute?" Li duo snorted coldly.


    "Although many schools have been built today, they are still far from enough!" Zu Mingjun frowned. The purpose of compulsory education is universal education. The more natural schools, the better. Master Li and Zu Mingjun can be said to have lost their heads for money.


    Although the Mohists are the richest, they can''t catch a sheep and pull up the wool hard. Now they can say that they don''t refuse any money.


    "After several schools in Chang''an city are completed, I will find some rich families to donate some. After all, there are still some willing to donate to build schools, but the most important thing is the support of the imperial court." Master Li took a deep breath and looked solemnly at the direction of the palace.


    Compulsory education costs a lot. I''m afraid only with the support of the imperial court can it be established. Now what they do is just to attract the attention of the imperial court.


    "Don''t worry, sir. Dr. Shen has played in the imperial court. I''m afraid he''s already in front of his Majesty''s letter."


    "I hope it will go well this time?" said master Li.

 Chapter 734

    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin looked solemnly at the two thick stacks of books in front of his desk.


    "Chinese! Mathematics!" Li Shimin said, looking at the books in front of him.


    After a year''s compilation, Shen Hongcai and Li Fuzi compiled books for six years of compulsory education respectively. According to the idea of two semesters a year, there were a full 12 books at once, which were arranged in two thick piles and placed in front of Li Shimin.


    "Return, your majesty! These books, from easy to difficult, from partial to complete, are excellent enlightenment materials." Shen Hongcai bowed.


    Li Shimin personally opened the book of mathematics. He really started teaching from Tianzhu numbers. It is easy to understand. From his eyes, he can naturally see that if he finishes learning one or two of these six books, daily calculation will be enough. If he finishes learning all of them, it will be more than enough to be an accounting room. I''m afraid it is the best book for learning mathematics


    Naturally, he has no doubts about mathematics. However, the current Chinese text makes Li Shimin hesitate. He has long heard of the name of the strange Confucian Li duo, and his idea of compulsory education for all is even more amazing.


    However, Li Shimin knows that it is extremely unrealistic to carry out universal compulsory education according to the current situation of Datang, not to mention the number of school-age children in Datang, how much money is needed.


    And teach these students how to arrange. You should know that passing the imperial examination in the three years of the Tang Dynasty is just hiring more than 100 officials, which has been criticized by many people. Does such a large number of students come to get officials? He is the emperor of the world immediately. Naturally, if the whole country is a Confucian, I''m afraid it will be the sadness of the imperial court.


    Therefore, Li Shimin has always been in a reserved opinion on a well-known good thing, but he didn''t expect that Master Li had a unique way out.


    First, we built the master''s college and the school with the support of the Mohist school. Now it has a preliminary scale, and we have compiled the book Chinese! Jump out of the dispute among various schools of thought and focus on cultivating children all over the world to be literate, literate and polite.


    "So you won''t be involved in the contention of a hundred schools of thought?" Li Shimin asked with great interest.


    Shen Hongcai bowed: "Your Majesty, what we offer is basic education. Instead of participating in the contention of a hundred schools of thought, we provide a steady stream of students for the contention of a hundred schools of thought. Now we have 60 planned schools. After learning words and phrases, these students can enter the Mohist school, study medicine and become medical apprentices. They can also specialize in the way of Confucius and Mencius, or obtain fame It can also provide troops for the recruit program,....... "


    Li Shimin''s heart pounded as he listened. In this way, the benefits of compulsory education for Datang are obvious.


    However, Li Shimin was not impulsive, but pondered and asked, "how many schools have been built now."


    Shen Hongcai said positively, "with Mojia village, five schools have been completed and seven schools are about to be completed. These 60 schools will be completed as scheduled in the next two years."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help taking a deep breath. Unconsciously, Master Li and Shen Hongcai unexpectedly made such a large scale.


    "Studying is a good thing. Naturally, I strongly support it. However, the specific results need to wait two years before you make a decision after the completion of your school. If it is as you imagine, I will naturally hand over the policy of compulsory education to all officials for discussion." Li Shimin said positively.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Shen Hongcai said with great joy.


    I''m afraid it will be his greatest gain to get Li Shimin''s promise. They can still afford to wait for two years. Moreover, if there is no accident in these two years, once 60 schools are completed, it will be the most powerful weapon to persuade all officials.


    "I will certainly live up to your Majesty''s expectations!" Shen Hongcai said solemnly.


    Once the world''s compulsory education is implemented, everyone in the world will learn mathematics, and the pulse of mathematics will really rise.


    "Hmm!" Li Shimin nodded and said casually, "I heard that you once taught Merton. After Princess Changle''s wedding, you go to Merton''s house and ask the Red Cross to donate a number of schools. I believe Changle will give you this face."


    Shen Hongcai was overjoyed and said, "thank you, your majesty. I''m leaving."


    If the Red Cross pays, it is not just a few more schools. The significance is self-evident.


    When Shen Hong left, Li Shimin stroked the Chinese book in his hand and showed a mysterious smile.


    Today, the chaotang is still the exclusive respect of Confucianism. Naturally, it is inconvenient for him to support Shen Hongcai immediately. It happens that the Red Cross Society with magic mirror income will donate to build some schools. It won''t cost much. It can be regarded as support for them.


    Although Confucianism is conducive to social stability, the Manchu Dynasty is full of Confucian forces, and he obviously feels constrained as an emperor. However, all education in the world is controlled by Confucianism. It must be Confucianism before the world. The compulsory education advocated by Li Fuzi and Shen Hongcai gives him hope to break this situation.


    Because this Chinese text looks like a hodgepodge, but master Li added the concept of loyalty to the king. This is an opportunity for the royal family to intervene in education, which has become loyalty to the king before Confucianism, or even the last hundred schools.


    "There may not even be a hundred schools in the future. I will include you one by one in the Chinese language." Li Shimin said with a trace of pride.


    Once the proposal of compulsory education appears, people of insight understand that this is the significance. Not only a hundred families have their own small abacus, but even the royal family can''t help but move.


    "Let''s go and drive out of the palace!" Li Shimin was so happy that he got up and shouted.


    Pound on one side was like a shadow. He came out of the shadow and said, "where is your majesty going to be lucky?"


    Li Shimin showed an inexplicable smile, stretched out his hand, showed an invitation and said, "today is the second ink technology exhibition in February. How can I miss such a wonderful thing?"


    Pound nodded when he saw that the box was still the box of last year.


    Soon after Li Shimin''s carriage left the palace, Li Zhi watched him leave and sneaked into the east palace.


    "Prince, brother, sister Changle, father and emperor have left the palace!" Li Zhi said excitedly.


    "What are you waiting for? Let''s go too!" Li Tai jumped up, and the princess Jinyang cheered.


    "Sister Changle, don''t forget your box ticket." Li Zhi couldn''t help reminding him.


    Last year''s ink technology exhibition was so wonderful that people couldn''t help but regret that they missed it. However, this year''s ink technology exhibition brothers and sisters had long planned to go together, and the tickets used were naturally the box reserved by Merton for Princess Changle.


    "I can''t stop you from taking you!" Chang Le snorted coldly, but he obediently took out the invitation volume in his hand. Although they can enter without volume, it''s not good if they disturb his father and Emperor.


    "Now that you''re ready, let''s go!" Li Chengqian took the lead and said.


    Then, an ordinary carriage quietly drove out of the palace and ran towards the south of the city.


    Outside the Qin mansion,


    Qin Huaiyu goes out of the Qin mansion, gets on the carriage that has been waiting there, and hurried to meet Chumo and weichi Baolin.


    Not far from the Qin house, Yu Zhining was dressed in Confucian clothes, and his anger appeared on his face. Finally, he gave a cold hum. Then he went out and took a four-wheel carriage to the south of Chang''an city.


    He is not as stubborn as Kong Desheng. He does not refuse to take a four-wheel carriage, but he buys carriages from other workshops. Although the effect is a little poor, he is also happy.


    In the Confucius Mansion, Kong Yingda and Kong huisuo looked at the two wheeled carriage in front of them, looked at Kong Desheng who insisted on it, and finally looked at each other reluctantly, so they had to lower their heads and drill in.


    Several two wheeled carriages squeaked all the way, and were soon overtaken by four wheeled buses on the road.


    These buses are almost fully loaded, and there is only one purpose, that is, in the south of Chang''an City, Zu Mingjun was squeezed out of breath on the carriage. He can''t help regretting why he didn''t start early.


    For a while, almost many carriages in Chang''an city rushed to the south of Chang''an City, and the situation in Chang''an gathered at the ink technology exhibition.


    Outside the ink technology exhibition,


    There are already a large number of people, talking excitedly about the highlights of last year''s ink technology exhibition and the expectation of this year''s ink technology exhibition. Many of the first participants in this year''s ink technology exhibition were interested in watching the achievements of the ink technology exhibition and couldn''t help being shocked by the wonderful ink technology of the Mohists.


    In this bustle, there was also the cry of scalpers selling tickets at high prices, but some Mojia village guards quickly came to stop it. Since last year''s ink technology exhibition was deeply hurt by scalpers, they have stepped up the crackdown. Once scalpers are found, they can be controlled directly until the ink technology exhibition starts, and then let them go, no matter how many tickets they have, He was allowed in alone.


    Soon, the sound of scalpers selling tickets at high prices soon disappeared.


    Li Shimin stepped out of the carriage and looked at the sea of people. He couldn''t help sighing: "the ink technology exhibition is better than in previous years."


    Last year''s storm of unsubscribing ink magazines did not make the Mohists give in. On the contrary, many Chang''an citizens are not so stupid this year. The number of ink magazines booked throughout the year has increased sharply. This time, the ink technology exhibition can be said to be full, and I''m afraid there are at least tens of thousands of people.


    "It''s about to start, let''s go in!" Li Shimin took a deep breath, and soon he came to his box.


    Kong Desheng also sat in the box and looked at the crowd coming to watch the ink art exhibition. He couldn''t help looking embarrassed.


    "Mohism has such a great influence," Kong Desheng said.


    He could not imagine that Mohism, which was still unknown three years ago, had developed so greatly in a short time.


    Kong huisuo nodded and said, "Mohism has been silent for thousands of years. It is not surprising that the accumulation of thousands of years has accumulated in a short time."


    "Most of these people come to see the excitement, or the merchants chasing copper smell. I''m afraid the real children of Mohism are just Mohist villages," Kong Yingda said.


    Kong Desheng''s face slowed slightly and said, "even so, Mohism still can''t be underestimated."


    We should know that the rise of Mohism is not a rise, but driven by Mohism. The rise of other hundred schools has brought a great impact to Confucianism.


    In a box not far away, Yu Zhining looked at the great momentum of Mohism and couldn''t help but look embarrassed. He strengthened his faith in Mohism. If Mohism was allowed to develop, one day Mohism would be called a major trouble for Confucianism.


    "This is the ink exhibition!"


    In a hidden box, Li Zhi stretched his head and looked at the lively venues. He couldn''t help feeling excited. It was the first time he saw such a big scene.


    "Merton is amazing," Li Tai exclaimed. With his eyes, we can see that there are too many amazing ink skills in this venue alone.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help showing her proud look.


    As time went by, the ink exhibition was soon full of people.


    With the sound of a clear Gong, the whole audience was silent. Everyone knew that the ink technology exhibition had begun.

 Chapter 735

    "Thank you for coming to join us. Mo is very grateful." as the voice appeared, Merton walked into the center of the meeting.


    "Mojiazi!" the audience cheered in an instant.


    Among the cheers, there were many gnashing of teeth and inexplicable sighs. Many people looked at Merton with complex eyes.


    The words of a single family are brilliant and turn stone into gold. It is about to marry the princess. This is a naked winner in life. How can we not let everyone envy, envy and hate.


    Merton thanked many times, and the people calmed down slowly.


    "Before the ink exhibition, Mo must fulfill his previous promise." Merton shouted.


    "Promise!"


    People couldn''t help but wonder and looked at Merton.


    Merton said in a loud voice: "at the western region grand meeting, Mo once promised to exchange a lot of seeds and books with foreign friends. Today, I just take this opportunity to carry out this transaction under your witness."


    After Merton finished, a Mohist son led a dark Hu merchant to the stage, which was the Johor merchant who told the Johor rice seed at the western region event.


    "Gentlemen, this man is a merchant in the southern Johor country. He once told Mo about Johor rice seeds three seasons a year. Now his Johor rice seeds have been successfully planted in Lingnan Road, with an annual output of up to ten loads." Merton shouted.


    "Is it true?" many people exclaimed.


    Some well-informed people knew that this matter had been played by Lingnan road at the end of the year''s great court meeting, and many people knew the gratitude and resentment of Lingnan road for cutting Hu Mohist rice seeds.


    After all, Feng ang knew about it and didn''t touch the Johor businessman. After it was done, he released the Johor businessman. The Johor businessman didn''t get any benefits. He was detained for another year and couldn''t go back. He came to Mojia village with a try attitude. He didn''t expect that the Mojia son really agreed to pay the reward.


    "This is fifty liang of gold! As a reward for bringing improved seeds to the Tang Dynasty." Merton solemnly opened a box, immediately revealed the golden ingot and solemnly handed it to Merton.


    "Thank you, thank you!"


    The Johor businessman thanked him again and again in a half familiar Tang dialect. Without the heavy promise of the Mohist school, he might have no way out.


    When many Hu merchants saw this scene, they immediately felt thoughtful and looked at Merton with a little more goodwill.


    "Mojiazi!"


    On the stand, Feng Zhidai said angrily that Merton kept his promise, but it seemed that the Feng family was stingy and broke the bridge.


    "It''s just buying horse bones and fishing for fame." Kong Desheng sniffed.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help but be silent and didn''t say anything more.


    In the box, Li Shimin was thoughtful. Merton''s move seemed to be fishing for fame, but it could appease the hearts of a group of Hu merchants and let them continue their plan to carry foreign varieties. It is of great natural significance.


    Sure enough, Merton also used a lot of money to buy a thick pile of sheepskin rolls and some seeds. A group of Hu merchants left happily.


    Kong Desheng looked at several stacks of sheepskin rolls and said with emotion: "this method is clever, but over time, it will have miraculous effects. The rise of Mohism is not a fluke."


    He finally knew that Mohism was more than a thousand years of accumulation. If it was combined with foreign unique skills, it would be even more powerful.


    "This method is wonderful. If Confucianism also uses this method?" Kong Yingda couldn''t help thinking for a while. Instead, he quickly shook his head. The Mohist School lured by profit, but it can turn the secret skills of the western regions into wealth and feed the Mohist school. If Confucianism uses this method, I''m afraid it''s just a mockery. In a short time, it will drain the money of Confucianism.


    From this point of view, I''m afraid this law can only be implemented by Mohism, or the imperial court. Obviously, Mohism took the lead.


    Merton, like a treasure, held up the parchment and books in his hand and solemnly said, "the commitment of the Mohist school is always valid. If any foreign classic works or crops that are not available or well planted in the Tang Dynasty are brought to the Tang Dynasty, the Mohist school will pay a lot of money."


    A group of Hu merchants got up one after another to thank them. What they called when they came to Datang was money. Datang was rich in products and didn''t need much goods, but the Mohists found another way for them.


    The people in the stands naturally knew the intention of Mohist school. Once these improved seeds were introduced to the Tang Dynasty, it would naturally benefit the people all over the world. Suddenly, bursts of applause broke out to pay tribute to Merton.


    After a long time, the applause stopped, and suddenly a voice resounded through the audience.


    "Tangtang mojiazi only remembers the promise of only 50 gold. Can he still remember the reward offered by Wanguan?"


    "Wanguan offers a reward!"


    Suddenly, the whole audience was quiet, focusing everyone''s attention on a young man dressed in black.


    Merton was stunned, and then a glimmer of joy flashed. Did the grand reward he used to buy horse bones finally work.


    "I''ve offered two rewards. One is to make oxygen in the secret technique of live fish, and the other is to solve the mystery of well killing water. I don''t know which one you''re talking about," Merton said.


    "I''ve solved the mystery of well killing! I don''t know how noble Mozi dares to keep his promise." the young man said coldly.


    Merton said without hesitation, "the Mohist school is naturally a promise. I don''t know what to call you."


    "Mohist Xiangfu''s pulse, Li Yun." young Li Yun said proudly.


    "Mojia Xiangfu''s pulse?" the people suddenly exclaimed. They couldn''t help moving back and forth between Mojia Zi and Li Yun. They looked like watching a good play.


    The story of Mohism has been talked about in Chang''an City for a long time. There was a shadow of Xiangfu''s pulse in the crisis of Mohist village last year. Now, in the ink technology exhibition, Xiangfu''s pulse even came to smash the field and fight within the Mohist family. How can this not make people look forward to it.


    "If you want to prove the mystery of killing water, I''m afraid you have to tell the truth truthfully before you can realize it." Merton said positively.


    "Who will judge right or wrong?" Li Yun said coldly.


    "No! It''s me!" Merton said impolitely.


    Li Yun sneered and said, "isn''t it right or wrong? It''s all up to you."


    "It''s a coincidence. Originally, Mo was going to make this public when no one was going to solve the mystery of killing water. He had already prepared the answer and sealed it in the envelope. Mo put the envelope here and make it public later, which will certainly convince you." Merton took out an envelope and put it on the table in full view of the public.


    "Brother Mo is open and aboveboard!" Qin Huaiyu shouted in front of the stand.


    Suddenly, everyone agreed. Li Yun was depressed. In this way, it seemed that he had some villain''s heart to spend the belly of a gentleman.


    "The mystery of killing water is actually very simple, because it''s not to suck it up at all, but to put the water pressure up." Li Yun said proudly.


    "Isn''t it just pressing up?" the people looked at Li Yun incomprehensibly. In their opinion, Li Yun seemed to be talking nonsense.


    Li Yun explained: "the so-called pressure is not the well rod we press with force, but, for example, pressing a basin of water, leaving only the outlet the size of the well tube for water. The most common is the Yongquan, which is the truth."


    "Yongquan?"


    Everyone could not help but feel confused. Only Li tairuo in the box thought.


    "It''s close to the truth, but the spring naturally has other groundwater with high water level to press its water out. Why is well killing?" Merton asked again.


    "Close to the truth?" they exclaimed. Unexpectedly, the Mo family agreed with this statement.


    Li Yun also took a surprised look at Merton. Unexpectedly, he said the truth he had thought for a long time. He didn''t realize it until he saw the gushing spring.


    "If you want to raise the water pressure, naturally something must come into contact with the water surface. I couldn''t think about it until I heard that mojiazi hot-air balloon landed in the clouds. It turned out that the real secret is the air we breathe everywhere."


    "It''s the air that makes the water pressure come out." Li Yun said firmly.


    "How could it be? We breathe every day and don''t feel anything pressing us." others immediately talked and said one after another.


    Other people were also unwilling to believe it. They looked at Li Yun like fools.


    Li Yun was immediately wronged. He didn''t expect that everyone didn''t believe it.


    "Second brother! Do you think what this person said is true?" Li Zhi asked in a low voice.


    Li Tai frowned and said, "although what this person said is incredible, I feel that this person is not lying."


    In the audience, I''m afraid not many people can understand what Li Yun said except Li Tai.


    "The air is really heavy, and brother Li''s crack is correct." suddenly, Merton''s voice rang through the audience, and everyone was silent.


    You know, once Merton admits that Li Yun is right, it means that Merton will at least pay this person a fortune.


    Merton gave a direct example: "If a pot is filled with twenty kilograms of water, boil it and dry it bit by bit, will the twenty kilograms of water disappear into steam? If you use the distillation method to collect it when it is cold, you will get the same twenty kilograms of water. In this way, when the twenty kilograms of water become steam, it naturally weighs twenty kilograms, and the air is everywhere. How much, naturally Its weight is just that we are used to it and can''t feel it. "


    Merton cited simple and easy to understand examples, which suddenly made many people realize. Only then did he believe that Li Yun really solved the mystery of well killing.


    "That''s money!"


    More people feel heartache. No one thought it would be so simple.


    "You know, I also..." many people immediately regretted. Suddenly, many people wanted to specialize in ink technology. You know, one has been cracked, but there is still a reward for making oxygen.


    In an instant, Li Yun had a feeling of confidant to Merton, but at the thought of their position, he immediately took back all his feelings.


    "Since you admit that I have solved this problem, I''d like to see your answer." Li Yun stretched out his finger to the sealed envelope and said proudly.


    His purpose of coming here today is not only to offer a reward with a pen, but also to correct the name of Xiangfu in order to defeat the Mohist school.


    "As you wish!" Merton reached out and waved, and immediately a son of the Mohists handed the envelope to Li Yun.


    Li Yun opened the envelope and was stunned. The principle of atmospheric pressure explained by Merton in the envelope was very detailed, and even the principle of hot-air balloon buoyancy was also explained clearly. In contrast, the principle he guessed is very rough, far inferior to Merton.


    When they saw that Li Yun had been speechless for a long time, they must know that Mohist Zi also had the right answer.


    "Congratulations, you''ve won this great reward. Some children of the Mohist family will send you the money later." Merton said without hesitation.


    Suddenly everyone exclaimed and looked at Li Yun with envy. It was money enough to buy a luxury house in Chang''an City and live a carefree life.


    However, to everyone''s surprise! Li Yun took a deep breath and said positively, "money will stay in Mojia village first. I heard that Mojia is going to build a bridge in Qujiang. You happen to be right. Li Mou is also going to build one. At that time, someone will pay for you. This time, we are tied in the mystery of well killing. Let''s compare it again with the bridge. By the way, I forgot to tell you that Li Chun of Zhaozhou Bridge is the ancestor of his family."


    "After Li Chun of Zhaozhou Bridge," many people burst into an uproar.


    After Li Chun built the Zhaozhou Bridge in the previous dynasty, he was greatly famous. The Tang Dynasty naturally knew Li Chun''s name.


    "It''s a little interesting."


    Seeing this, Li Shimin said with a smile. Anyway, the imperial court benefits from both sides. Li Shimin is naturally happy.


    Kong Desheng''s face changed. Now the Mohist school can produce a large number of talents! A Mohist is evil enough. Now there is another Li Yun who can compete with him.


    Can''t help but glare at Kong huisuo. Kong huisuo quickly straightened his waist and said, "my grandson is not bad."


    "Then you say, what have you achieved?" Kong Desheng held his breath.


    "Er, ER!" Kong Hui was speechless when Thornton.


    When the audience calmed down again, they couldn''t help feeling a lot. Compared with the two people in front of them, they were somewhat ashamed of themselves.

 Chapter 736

    "OK! After chatting, the following is Mo''s announcement that the third ink technology exhibition has officially begun."


    Suddenly the whole audience was quiet and knew that the real big play was about to begin.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, a curtain in the center suddenly fell, revealing a tall box with transparent glass. A cucumber vine was planted in the center of the box, and many yellow flowers were opening, and several slender cucumbers were particularly conspicuous.


    "This is... Cucumber!"


    The crowd exclaimed. A year ago, news came from Mojia village that Mojia had cultivated out of season vegetables. At that time, people thought it was just a rumor, and no one believed it at all.


    However, when the real cucumber vine appeared in front of everyone, many people were immediately impacted. Although it was February 2, the tree had not germinated, and the cucumber in front of us had already germinated.


    "How could this be possible?" Kong Desheng couldn''t believe it. He had just come from Qufu. Naturally, he hadn''t heard the news, which had a great impact on him.


    Kong Yingda on one side explained: "but there is this matter. Your majesty had tasted it in person years ago."


    Kong Desheng still couldn''t accept it for a long time until a son of Mohism pushed the door and bowed down and said, "this is an out of season cucumber cultivated by Mohism. Please taste it."


    Kong Desheng grabbed it and looked at the cucumber with yellow flowers carefully. After repeated observation, he finally confirmed that it was indeed a fresh cucumber.


    Kong huisuo on one side was not so polite. He had already greedily picked up a cucumber and chewed it directly. The fresh cucumber went down his belly and showed an expression of enjoyment.


    In the Taoist box, Yuan Tiangang smiled bitterly. Otherwise, I''m afraid the world would think that Merton was the son of a Taoist immortal.


    "Such magic is more magical than the magic of immortals." Li Chunfeng sighed.


    In the box, each can be divided into several. However, on the venue, he was not so lucky. Merton prepared a lot of cucumbers and threw them to the surrounding audience, which was robbed in an instant.


    "It''s really a fresh cucumber," they said after tasting it.


    Merton explained: "this is just the principle of light and heat. As long as there is enough light and appropriate temperature, Mohism can make seeds germinate, grow, blossom and bear fruit at any time. Of course, the credit for all this is these transparent glasses."


    "Glass!"


    People can''t help but realize that Mohism is best at using light and temperature. Glasses and artificial incubation technology use light and temperature. The glass greenhouse in front of them is just a combination of the two.


    "Although this is just an attempt, the Mohist School hereby guarantees that one day, the people of the Tang Dynasty can also eat vegetables in four seasons in winter." Merton solemnly said.


    Merton didn''t lie about this. Anti seasonal vegetables can be found everywhere in future generations. He just needs to wait until the emergence of plastic greenhouses. He believes that with the current research level of Mohism, I''m afraid it won''t be long before plastics can appear in Datang. That''s when anti seasonal vegetables are popular.


    Many people involuntarily believe what Merton said. Before that, the production of chickens, ducks and geese was very low and the meat price was very high. Now, driven by the artificial incubation technology, it is not difficult for even civilians to eat meat in their homes.


    People are reluctant to give up the aftertaste of the green and vegetable flavor just now. They can''t help but miss it. Next, the beans and leeks were carried by a group of Mohist children for everyone to watch. Many people were surprised and opened their eyes. It didn''t subside until a long time.


    "Next, the second exhibition is also about glass," Merton waved.


    Suddenly a four-wheel carriage came at a gallop, with beautiful body and streamlined unique shape. Especially under the reminder of Merton, the glass on the window attracted everyone''s attention.


    "The second generation of new carriages is going on the market?"


    Many carriage lovers exclaimed that the carriage produced by Mohism is recognized as the first. As long as they are not biased against Mohism, they are all proud of Mohist carriage. Even in some aristocratic families, some rebellious aristocratic children even secretly buy Mohist carriage against the wishes of their elders. After all, Mohist carriage is much better than that of other workshops, Especially the shock absorption effect.


    Merton pointed to the glass of the window and said, "the glass of the window is transparent and bright. If you take the carriage and put down the curtain, it will be dark in the car. This carriage can perfectly solve this problem. We can not only read in the car, but also enjoy the scenery along the way. How comfortable it will be.


    Qin Huaiyu nodded hard. In addition to these two points, they can also make others envy and envy. They have a deep understanding of this. They don''t know how many dandies they envy when driving this four-wheel carriage in the first month.


    "More importantly, it''s safe, as hard as steel," Merton said, picking up a brick and smashing it into the window.


    "Ah!" the crowd couldn''t help exclaiming.


    However, after a dull noise, the window of the carriage was intact.


    "This is the newly developed tempered glass of Mohism. It is extremely hard, transparent, safe, and reasonable in price. It also costs 20 yuan. After the ink technology exhibition, you can book it on a first come, first served basis." Merton seduced.


    "Twenty passes!"


    A lot of people suddenly became excited.


    Naturally, many workshops producing four wheeled carriages also sent people to inquire about the ink technology exhibition. When they heard the price of Merton''s new carriage, they couldn''t help sighing.


    It was not easy for them to unite to form a situation of suppressing the carriages in Mojia village. Now the second generation of new carriages in Mojia village is on the market, which immediately turns their efforts into nothing. Even if they intend to copy, I''m afraid they can only work in vain, because they simply have no ability to manufacture new glass, let alone new tempered glass.


    Now they have only two ways to go. One is to continue to produce ordinary four-wheel carriages, which may be difficult to sell, and the profit is limited. The other is that they take the initiative to surrender to the Mohist family and buy Mohist glass, because the Mohist family has always sold parts to other workshops, but I''m afraid that their alliance will collapse after being subject to the Mohist family.


    Whether to survive or disintegrate, this is at a crossroads of a group of four wheeled carriage workshops.


    "It''s just a stink of copper! How arrogant the great Mohist school was in the pre-Qin period, even the seven heroes of the Warring States period can''t let it give in, and today''s Mohist school should bow to some stinky businessmen for a few money. It''s ridiculous." Kong Desheng angrily scolded.


    Kong huisuo turned his eyes helplessly and said, "second uncle, the Mohist school you said has been silent for thousands of years. I''m afraid who it is will change."


    "That can''t lose the bottom line." Kong Desheng paused, not confident.


    I wonder if Confucianism was so arrogant at the beginning. After Qin Shihuang burned books and entrapped Confucianism, Confucianism has not changed greatly, which has established its roots in the Han Dynasty and its status today.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "the appearance of the four wheeled carriage is beneficial to the world, and the glass is even more useful. Moreover, ink technology is the foundation of Mohism. I''m afraid that only in this way can Mohism flourish."


    A boy of Mohism drove a new four-wheel carriage along the venue for several times and attracted countless eyes before he quietly withdrew.


    When Merton saw the people''s reluctant eyes, he couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction and said in a high voice, "next, I believe every family will have this thing."


    Merton said, seeing that four huge signs had been quietly set up in the middle of the venue. With the falling of the mask, four huge mirrors appeared in front of everyone.


    "Magic mirror!"


    The audience couldn''t help exclaiming that the four mirrors were facing the audience. People can clearly see the image from the mirror. Some viewers who were facing the mirror can even find themselves in the mirror.


    The legend of the magic mirror has long been popular with the story of snow white and Merton''s bride price, and many people are naturally familiar with it.


    People had long guessed that they might encounter the magic mirror in the ink exhibition. However, when the magic mirror appeared in front of the world, they couldn''t help but marvel at it.


    Li Yuan on one side couldn''t believe looking at such a beautiful mirror. He didn''t expect that the Mohist ink technique was so exquisite that it was almost the effect of uncanny workmanship.


    "Magic mirror, magic mirror, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?" Chumo shouted in the fairy tale.


    Suddenly the whole audience burst into laughter. Who is it? Nature is self-evident. Nature is Princess Changle.


    In the box, Princess Changle couldn''t help being shy and blushing.


    In another box, Li Shimin''s face changed and he snorted angrily. His daughters were all his father''s little cotton padded jackets. I''m afraid that the father would be unhappy when he heard people talking about his daughter.


    Merton said generously: "in my heart, she is naturally the most beautiful woman, but I think every woman can become the most beautiful woman in the world. One is the day she gets married and the other is the moment she becomes a mother."


    He didn''t want Princess Changle to be the best beauty in the world. He just moved out the classic sayings of later generations. He didn''t want to say that he was blind and didn''t know his wife was beautiful.


    "The day of marriage."


    "The moment of motherhood!"


    Suddenly, many people''s hearts moved and couldn''t help thinking. When a woman put on a phoenix crown, it was the most beautiful moment in her life. At the moment of being a mother, the glory of maternal love was more beautiful than any empty skin bag.


    Hearing the speech, Princess Changle couldn''t help showing a trace of love and looked at Merton.


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little. Merton''s words were watertight. He praised all the women in the world at once and didn''t offend anyone.


    "Brother Mo is awesome!" Kong huisuo exclaimed.


    No wonder the person who can get the princess is admirable by his eloquence alone.


    "Smooth tongue!" Kong Desheng sneered at Merton.


    Merton quickly exposed the topic and said loudly, "in fact, this is not a magic mirror, but a silver mirror created by bad people."


    "Silver mirror!


    ¡±People could not help exclaiming that the silver mirror was so clear. What a magic mirror would be if it was better.


    "This is the eldest disciple of the Mohist school. It''s a girl!" Kong Desheng couldn''t help pointing to a little girl in blue in the middle of the four mirrors.


    Kong Yingda nodded and said, "this is the second daughter of the Wu family. I heard that she is intelligent and has a very tough character. It is said that she made hundreds of mistakes when she created the magic mirror."


    After Master Li''s publicity, the story of Wu Meiniang''s mirror making has become a well-known story in Chang''an city. Many parents use Wu Meiniang''s persistent story to educate their children, and even the Mo family, who instructed Wu Meiniang, has become an educator.


    "I have some qualifications, but I''m a girl." Kong Desheng said regretfully. In his opinion, if Wu Meiniang was a man, she would certainly be able to do something. Unfortunately, she was just a daughter. In his life''s understanding, the girl could not do anything at all.


    Kong Yingda opened her mouth and wanted to tell the news that Mohist Zi clearly said that women can also take charge of Mohism. Finally, she shook her head and gave up. After all, even he didn''t believe that Merton would hand over Mohism to a woman.


    "Even a girl is much better than you." Kong Desheng looked at Kong huisuo coldly and said in a hate voice.


    Kong Hui Thornton was speechless for a while, and she suffered a reckless disaster.


    Princess Changle was naturally impressed by the sensible little girl. She was also moved when she heard about Wu Meiniang''s mirror making. Compared with the unfortunate Wu Meiniang, she has been too lucky.


    For a moment, people turned their eyes to Wu Meiniang and sighed again and again.


    Merton naturally noticed the people''s eyes, and Lang said, "although the silver mirror is a little inferior to the magic mirror, it is also much stronger than the copper mirror. Moreover, our teachers and disciples found a very interesting phenomenon in making the mirror. I believe everyone will open their eyes."


    With Merton''s gesture, the four Mohist children turned the huge silver mirror upside down one after another, all aiming at Wu Meiniang in the middle.


    In an instant, under the constant mapping of the two mirrors, Wu Meiniang appeared in the mirror again and again, as if countless Wu Meiniang were in the silver mirror.


    "Amazing."


    The crowd exclaimed.


    "Mother, that''s my sister!" on the stand, an old woman holding a young girl looked at Wu Meiniang in the center and couldn''t help smiling.


    Today is the ink art exhibition. Wu Meiniang will naturally leave a ticket for her mother. If she wants, it is not impossible to even prepare a box. However, Wu Meiniang did not do so, but prepared an ordinary seat for one.


    "Master, if you are the spirit in heaven, you can rest assured." Yang couldn''t help praying.


    The death of samurai Yu made great changes around Yang. However, Wu Meiniang joined the Mohist School and gave her a turning point. Under great sorrow and joy, Yang, who was weak, couldn''t help crying.


    It was not until Wu Meiniang''s figure left and the silver mirror withdrew that they put away their reluctant eyes.


    "The silver mirrors produced by Mohist also use agents. If you are interested, you can contact shopkeeper Xu of Mohist." Merton naturally understands people''s thoughts, Lang said.


    Suddenly, many merchants looking for business opportunities can''t sit still. Silver mirror has such an effect and must sell well in Datang. You know, women''s money is the best to earn at this time, no matter which dynasty they are in.


    Subsequently, Merton introduced many new tools of Mohism, each of which caused bursts of exclamation. After a year of development, although Mohism received heavy losses, it still made great achievements.


    Of course, this is not Merton''s own achievement. The Tang silk system he advocated is amazing.

 Chapter 737

    "This is the way of offering sacrifices to Mohist saints. I can say I am very disappointed." suddenly another voice sounded, which immediately made the scene silent.


    "Yu Zhining!" Li Shimin frowned, but did not say anything. After all, Merton had already made an appointment with him when he was in the court.


    "Yu Yushi?"


    The crowd exclaimed one after another. They couldn''t help sighing that it was not easy for Merton to set up an ink technology exhibition. First, the Mohist Xiangfu family smashed the field, and then encountered difficulties caused by the imperial historian of the current Dynasty.


    "What''s going on?" Kong Desheng asked with a frown.


    Kong Yingda whispered out the causes and consequences of Yu Zhining''s marriage with Merton.


    "It can also be regarded as a loyal and righteous man of Confucianism." Kong Desheng''s eyes changed. Yu Zhining acted as the vanguard of Confucianism against Mohism, which can be said to be the meaning of Kong Desheng.


    "That''s the old man! It''s very bad. My brother-in-law just built a new house for my sister, and he also destroyed it." Li Zhi said with a curl of his mouth.


    "Yes!" Princess Jinyang quickly echoed, firmly standing on her sister''s side.


    Princess Changle also frowned. She didn''t like Zhining instinctively. Even if she had a good temper, how could she not be angry when she heard that someone was making trouble at her wedding.


    "Don''t worry, since Merton didn''t suffer a loss in the court, he must be clearly prepared at the moment." Li Chengqian comforted.


    Princess Changle nodded and couldn''t help looking at Merton. Merton glanced at Yu Zhining and said in a loud voice, "well, the Mohists have been suspected and misunderstood many times since they appeared in Chang''an city. Today, Mo will know everything and speak freely with you to solve the knot."


    Kong Desheng''s face was embarrassed. He knew that Merton''s words were probably said to their Confucianism. I''m afraid the main force of Mohism is Confucianism.


    "First of all, let''s talk about what ink technology is. The so-called ink technology is to specially crack the truth hidden between various phenomena in heaven and earth, let it be used by us, and change heaven and earth with manpower. Its truth is the same as that of the Confucian Xunzi. In the pre-Qin period, the Mohist studied optics. I''m afraid the world thought it was useless at that time. However, today, because of the emergence of glass , the light shines brightly, and everyone can see things clearly. This is the magical effect of ink technology. It benefits itself by borrowing foreign things. "Merton explained. Li Yun nodded when he heard the speech. This is what the Mohist school has always been proud of.


    Merton continued: "The purpose of Mohist ink art exhibition is to let more people know the secrets of the world. They will not be frightened by seeing Tiangou eating the sun, or confused by seeing puzzling phenomena. There are Johor rice in southern countries to double the output, and cotton workers in the west to keep out the cold. Some people may say that even without Mohist, these items may come naturally one day, but the process may be late For decades, hundreds of years, even thousands of years, in which, how much will Datang lose and how many families starve? The role of Mohism is to accelerate this process ten times, one hundred times, and take the initiative to seek screening and choose what is useful for the benefit of the people. "Merton added.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help sighing that the Mohist school did take the initiative. The rise of the Mohist school has greatly benefited the Tang Dynasty in the past three years, which can''t be erased by anyone.


    "Some people may say that Mohism has searched all the good varieties in the world. Isn''t this not a chance for other hundred schools? Then I''ll point you to a place where Mohism hasn''t been involved, the shore of the East China Sea." Merton pointed to the East and looked deeply.


    "It is well known that all lakes have shores, and the lake water will dry up if there is a gap. In Mo''s view, the water in the East China Sea will never dry up. It must be a super large ocean, not boundless, but we haven''t arrived. Datang is its west coast, and there must be a vast land in the East, where countless plants and animals grow. Datang is not Can you dare to take the improved seeds that have existed? "


    Merton looked around and suddenly the whole audience was quiet. In everyone''s understanding, the sea was extremely terrible. Ships were often destroyed and people were killed, swallowing countless lives. Although everyone agreed with Merton, no one dared to take this risk.


    "You can''t wait, but the Mohists will go one day and build a huge ship to break through the waves and bring back improved seeds for the Tang Dynasty." Merton said sonorously.


    "There are also some ink skills hidden between the mysteries of heaven and earth, such as Qu Yuan plow, artificial incubation, summer ice making, brick road and glass. As long as these things exist, Mohism will never disappear, even if Mohism is silent for thousands of years. When these things are discovered one by one after a thousand years, that is, when Mohism rises again, but Mohism cannot and will not be When he appears, the significance of Mohist research on ink technology is to discover these secret skills that benefit the country and the people as early as possible, so that people can eat enough, wear warm clothes, and do more work with the most labor-saving machinery.


    If the Mohists don''t take the initiative to explore these, one day, the far west country or the unknown country on the coast of the East China Sea will find these ink skills first, drive a warship bigger than Datang, hold a weapon sharper than Datang, and throw gunpowder with a stone catapult, what will we do on that day? "


    Merton''s series of questions made everyone silent, especially Li Shimin. If gunpowder is controlled by other countries, I''m afraid he won''t sleep safely.


    "Mo is not a show of merit, but to explain to you the fact that the great Tang Dynasty of Mohism is an indispensable knowledge. The world believes that the rise of Mohism must be the credit of my Mohist son, but I don''t think so. Even without me, brick roads will appear one day, four-wheel carriages will appear one day. Their appearance is not accidental, but inevitable, because of people We need to walk in the rain and pull more goods,


    Heating and cotton will appear sooner or later, because people need to wear warm clothes and live in warm rooms; all kinds of improved varieties will arrive in Datang sooner or later, because people need to eat enough. Even if there is no Mohist school, someone will do it.


    This is the way of saints! People''s daily use is the way!


    However, theories that are useless to the people will eventually be abandoned by the people. Even if they remain silent for another thousand years, they will still rise. This is the way of saints finally realized by Mohism. "


    "People''s daily use is the way!"


    For a moment, all the people present were silent.


    Kong Desheng suddenly thought deeply and said in unison: "my husband, Kong Desheng, the 30th generation of the Confucius family, since the Mohist wizards are here, I don''t know if I want to ask about Confucianism, but the way of saints."


    "After Kong Sheng, he asked the Mohist school!" many people couldn''t help shouting when they looked at Kong Desheng in the box.


    Merton bowed and said, "it''s Master Kong. Confucianism teaches people ethics and etiquette, the way of a gentleman, and people all over the world examine themselves three times a day. Naturally, it''s the way of saints. No matter how the world changes, Confucianism will never wither."


    Kong Desheng nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, his words changed: "I don''t know how mohou treats the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism."


    Merton was stunned and said proudly: "the mind of the strong people of Confucianism and the physique of the strong people of Mohism can''t reach their personal strength. If one person uses ink technology, he can surpass the power of ten people. In the future, he may surpass the power of a hundred people, and it''s not impossible for a thousand people. Do you say that Mohism will be abandoned by a Hundred Surnames again? No! So no matter how Confucianism and Mohism compete, the final result can only coexist!"


    Kong Desheng solemnly shook his head. In this way, the Mohist school will not be abandoned, even become stronger and stronger.


    "Why don''t mohou comment on the other hundred schools?" Kong Desheng seduced.


    Merton naturally guided Kong Desheng''s intentions, but he didn''t think so. Lang said: "arithmetic is used by everyone, and it will rise one day."


    When Zu Mingjun heard this, his blood was boiling. He waved his hand vigorously. He was too excited to control himself.


    "The people will encounter a lawsuit one day, and the Legalists will survive forever."


    In a remote corner, Han Fuzi smiled knowingly, which was exactly what he wanted to say.


    "Taoism is for people to believe in natural incense, and of course, so is Buddhism."


    "Limitless Heavenly Master!"


    Li Chunfeng involuntarily eulogized the Taoist horn, but when he heard Merton''s judgment on Buddhism, he couldn''t help frowning.


    Kong Desheng nodded and said, "it''s also pertinent."


    "But in my opinion, there must be one among the hundreds of schools that is destined to rise." Merton smiled knowingly.


    "Oh! Would you like to hear the details?" Kong Desheng raised his eyebrows.


    Merton showed a mysterious smile and said word by word: "novelist!"


    "What''s the solution?" Kong Desheng didn''t understand.


    "The boy found that no one would like to read the obscure Mo Sutra. Instead, everyone loves to read the relaxed and interesting Mo Zi''s Secret works. The Liang Zhu created by the boy accidentally is a popular novel in the Tang Dynasty. Elder Kong thought it would rise." Merton asked.


    "If you can''t rise, it''s against the way of saints." Kong Desheng laughed.

 Chapter 738

    "Here, Mo invited you. The serial section of Mo''s novels is vacant. If you want to, novelists'' colleagues can contribute to Mo, and Mo will pay them a lot of remuneration. It may not even be impossible to print a Book independently in the future." Merton looked around and said.


    Yu Zhining frowned. When Liang Zhu was popular in those years, it can be said that it was popular among the whole people. It directly led to a surge in the sales of ink magazines and suppressed the Confucian magazines to a low point. Even if they are now independent, they are still popular and sell well. If the Mohists are attracting novelists to contribute, they are afraid that the future ink magazines will dominate the Confucian magazines again, but today''s Confucian magazines think they are orthodox, It is impossible to accept the novelist''s unorthodox theory.


    "In addition, let me tell you something. Liang Zhu of Mo has sold 300000 copies in one year. Even if one copy is given to Mo for a Wen, it will be 100000, which is higher than Mo''s salary." Merton laughed.


    "One hundred thousand dollars!"


    There was an uproar. There was so much money in just one Liangzhu. More importantly, it was earned in one year. In the future, in previous years, it was not lying down to make money, which was not the reputation brought by Liangzhu.


    For a moment, many people were palpitating. Perhaps this is indeed an opportunity. More importantly, writing novels has no production cost, but only consumes some paper and pen.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help but show a trace of pride. The widespread spread of Liang Zhu, but the evidence of her love with Merton made her a little more proud.


    "One hundred thousand dollars!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but look embarrassed. He wanted to embarrass Merton on his salary, but he didn''t think that Merton had another source of money. Isn''t his mind in vain.


    "As for other schools of thought, if you want to really usher in the development opportunity, you must make changes. Don''t cherish yourself; don''t live in seclusion in the mountains; don''t admire yourself. Only by truly integrating into the daily use of the people can you really achieve a family theory." Merton said proudly.


    The people who came to watch the ink technology exhibition were not only ordinary people and profit seeking merchants, but also many other declining hundreds of people. They couldn''t help thinking when they heard the speech.


    They have been discussing and observing Mohism, and even jealous of Mohism. They all want to know how a Mohist School rose from an almost extinct theory in three years, and vaguely reappeared the momentum of the Pre-Qin Dynasty.


    Originally, in the public''s understanding, they all thought that the secret of the resurgence of Mohism was the endless emergence of ink skills. Until today, Merton''s concept that people''s daily use is the Tao suddenly dawned on everyone.


    They are wrong. What really makes Mohism rise again is their people''s daily use thought. From a Mohist who thinks he is superior to others, he adheres to the glory of the past to solving the people''s daily use.


    People all over the world know that live fish are fresh. Mohist School threw out the secret skills of live fish to benefit the people all over the world. Nowadays, except in cold winter, poetry can be frozen and kept fresh. There are basically no dead fish overnight in other seasons.


    Datang is short of meat. Mojiazi invented artificial incubation technology, which doubled the output of chickens, ducks and geese. It is no longer difficult for countless people to eat meat.


    When the output of land and grain was not enough, the Mohists invented the Qu Yuan plow, introduced improved seeds from abroad and improved farming technology.


    A large four-wheel carriage with brick roads.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Now when people think back, they find that the actions of Mohism in recent years can be said to closely focus on the daily use of the people, and also bring great returns to Mohism. It is the people who benefit from Mohism that makes the revival of Mohism unstoppable.


    "Now we know the real Mohism!" many people lamented one after another.


    Even the Mohists who used to be high above are like this, not to mention the hundreds of them who are not the mainstream? Many people are thoughtful and have made a vague decision in their hearts.


    Li Yun held his hands tightly and bowed his head for a moment of silence. He always believed in the belief of Mohism and thought that his Xiangfu''s pulse was the orthodoxy of Mohism. However, when he saw and heard Merton''s concept that people''s daily use is the Tao, he couldn''t help sighing.


    Mohist school has indeed gone astray in recent years. Now Xiangli''s pulse has awakened, but his Xiangfu''s pulse is still immersed in the glory of Mohist School in the past.


    "He is worthy of being a son of the Mohist family. Indeed, he has some talent and successors." Kong Desheng also had to praise that Merton''s idea that people''s daily use is the Tao is indeed unique. Even he couldn''t find any reason to refute it in a short time.


    "Thank you for your appreciation, elder Kong." Merton replied.


    Others couldn''t help thinking about Merton''s ideas. If they got anything, Merton couldn''t help showing a knowing smile when they saw the reaction of the people.


    The philosophical proposition of Wang Gen, a thinker in the Ming Dynasty, did not cause a sensation at that time. However, Merton put it forward hundreds of years in advance and testified the rise of Mohism as an example. The effect is naturally different. He believes that it will set off a greater storm.


    For a long time, when the Mohist village used the new ink technology to create the goods popular in the Tang Dynasty, it certainly made a lot of money, but it was always criticized. On the one hand, it believed that the Mohist was a clever pornographic technology, and on the other hand, it impeached the Mohist to participate in business and compete for profits with the people. Even there were different voices in the Mohist village. If the Mohist did not give public opinion guidance, I''m afraid that before long, the Mohist school will become a merchant and be suppressed by the court.


    Merton quoted the idea that people''s daily use is the Tao. On the one hand, he found a new theoretical support for the reform of Mohism. On the other hand, he corrected the name of Mohism, so that the world no longer looks at Mohist village as a merchant.


    "These ink skills are not the limit of Mohism. More ink skills will emerge in the future. Mohist ink skills will study what people need and never stop." Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin could not help nodding. What do the people need! People need to eat, wear warm clothes, live in a good house, and their children receive a good education... These are developed by the Mohist school, and they have made little achievements.


    Yu Zhining''s face was embarrassed. As soon as the idea that the daily use of the Mohist people is the Tao came out, his previous accusation against the Mohist school must be a joke. Who in the world doesn''t want to live in a spacious, bright and unbreakable big house? Isn''t it for the daily use of the people!


    Princess Changle nodded even harder. Although she was on Merton''s side, I''m afraid she wouldn''t be comfortable if she had been impeached by the censor of all officials because of the new house. Merton''s words today completely shut the censors.


    "Today''s ink art exhibition is over. Thank you for your support."


    Merton solemnly saluted the crowd under the attention of the crowd, and then slowly retreated until Merton''s figure disappeared in the center of the venue.


    Although this ink technology exhibition is not as legendary as the previous artificial rainbow and the prediction of Tiangou eclipse, it is closer to the people, which seems a little pity for the ordinary people who come to see the excitement.


    But for some people, it is no less than a sullen thunder.


    Since the contention of a hundred schools of thought, no dazzling ideas have appeared. However, the idea that the daily use of the people of Mohism is the Tao has shocked everyone. I believe that after the ink technology exhibition, it will certainly cause an ideological storm in the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 739

    After the ink exhibition, the people who came to watch left one after another.


    There were many discussions. Some people make complaints about Mohist''s gold medal. While Li Tun Yun is not rich in his wealth, he is even more curious about what the oxygen of the living fish is. I wish I were the next master of Wanguan money.


    Before that, although Merton''s Wanguan reward was attractive, no one had received it after all. Everyone always came with a skeptical attitude. However, this time, Merton personally confirmed his promise, which not only fulfilled all the promises of the western regions conference, but also surprised everyone, even Li Yun, who has a grudge with the Mo family, solved the mystery of well killing, The Mohists still pay.


    Seeing someone get this money, how can people not be itchy, and everyone knows that oxygen will be everywhere, that is to say, everyone has the opportunity to get this Wanguan reward.


    Of course, this Wanguan award can not be obtained casually. More people pay attention to the new ink technology of this ink technology exhibition. Of course, the most amazing is the glass greenhouse that changes in the four seasons. In the ink technology exhibition, everyone is just a glimpse.


    Now that the ink technology exhibition is over, Mojia village has opened up a special place for people to watch the glass greenhouse. It is simply overcrowded.


    In addition, what is more popular is the second generation of new four-wheel carriages. Thank Qin Huaiyu for their unremitting hatred among the dandies in Chang''an city. After the ink technology exhibition, the sales of the second generation of four-wheel carriages have been rising. The dandies in Chang''an City alone can support the sales of the second generation of four-wheel carriages.


    The silver mirror is the most unforgettable. With the spread of Snow White''s call, the legend of the magic mirror can be said to be known to women and children. Although the silver mirror in front of us is not as magical as the magic mirror bought as Princess Changle''s wedding gift, it is far better than the previous copper mirror. Under the superb technology of Mohism, the silver mirror can clearly see its own face, which is even more surprising, The price of silver mirror is lower than that of copper mirror.


    More clearly, the price is low. How can people not rush to buy? People with a clear eye can see that once the silver mirror appears, the copper mirror seen in the market will be eliminated.


    Li Yun in the crowd was even more silent when he looked at the prosperous scene. Now the Mohist village is booming. On the contrary, they are in the same vein with their husband, shrinking in the land of Shandong. Their previous concept of Mohism is nothing at all.


    Looking at the people in Chang''an city holding silver mirrors and driving the new carriage, Kong Desheng couldn''t help but be silent.


    If it had been before, they would have despised Mohism in their hearts. However, today''s Mohism has the theoretical support of people''s daily use of the Tao. I''m afraid they can''t refute Mohism with this view.


    People really need to eat fresh vegetables in winter, need safer and brighter carriages, and need clearer mirrors. The Mohist School complied with the people''s daily use to develop ink technology, which in turn was welcomed by the people, which is not to confirm the correctness of the Mohist concept.


    Yu Zhining was even more embarrassed. He always boasted that he was old and authentic Confucianism. However, today, he was taught a lesson by the Mo family in public. He had just taken over the Confucian journal. He had originally established his prestige, but he didn''t expect to be disgraced by Merton.


    "Elder Kong laughed at me. Yu was incompetent and couldn''t suppress the Mo family. Fortunately, elder Kong came to Chang''an and sat down in person. Our generation of Confucian scholars have a bottom in their hearts. Please sit down in the Confucian journal in person." Yu Zhining said with a ashamed face.


    Kong Desheng shook his head and said, "adult Yu is serious. The Mohist school is a younger generation. If I do it, I will make people laugh at the big bullying the small. It''s inconvenient for me to intervene in the affairs of Confucian journals."


    "I admire you for your integrity." Yu Zhining said with admiration on his face. However, he felt a burst of happiness in his heart. If Kong Desheng robbed the Confucian journal, he might have to give in.


    Kong Desheng and Yu Zhining had a brief chat before they left. After all, if they stayed at the ink technology exhibition for more than a quarter of an hour, they would feel uncomfortable.


    Seeing Kong Desheng and others leave in a simple two wheeled carriage, Yu Zhining returned to his four wheeled carriage. Immediately, his face changed and he snorted coldly: "the Kong family is just relying on the legacy of Kong Sheng, a group of old-fashioned people."


    When Kong Desheng came to Chang''an City, he was immediately sought after by the Confucian scholars in Chang''an city. In particular, he was a worn-out two wheeled carriage everywhere. He was called high spirited and virtuous by the Confucian scholars in Chang''an city because Zhining seemed so ridiculous. Kong Desheng didn''t give up Confucian journals because he was selfless. He just wanted him to be a bird, and his Confucius family sat behind him and enjoyed his success.


    On the two wheeled carriage, Kong Yingda sat on the dark and bumpy two wheeled carriage and wanted to stop talking. Kong Desheng said happily: "do you want to ask me why I don''t take over the Confucian journal?"


    Kong Yingda nodded: "second uncle, you don''t know the importance of Confucian journals. If you take over Confucian journals, my Kong family will be able to master more discourse power."


    Today''s Confucianism seems to have a respected status, but it is an empty shelf. Except for one of his disciples, Kong Yingda, who is offering wine as the Imperial College, other disciples don''t have any official positions at all. If the Kong family can take power in the Confucian journal, they will certainly have a great increase in their discourse power. Maybe they take the opportunity to get in touch with the leaders of the Imperial Hall, and he Kong Yingda takes the opportunity to enter the Imperial Hall, It is not a position without real power now.


    Kong Desheng sneered: "What do you think is the secret for the Confucius family to maintain its prominent position, not only because we are the saints of Confucius, but also because we do not participate in the court at all. At any time, the reputation of the Confucius family is the first, and we will not allow any behavior to tarnish the reputation of the Confucius family. Only if the Confucius family does not fall down, can Confucianism remain invincible. Confucian journals seem prominent, but they are the forefront of the tide , anyone can do it, but I, the Confucius family, alone, can''t do it. "


    Kong Ying was silent at Dayton. Although she was unwilling, she could only bow down and say, "remember, young nephew."


    "By the way, why didn''t you see Kong huisuo and others?" Kong Desheng asked with a frown.


    Kong Yingda thought of it at this time and said, "Oh! He said he saw Zu Mingjun. Go to find him and go back to Chang''an city later."


    "Zu Mingjun!" Kong Desheng couldn''t help thinking of the descendant of his ancestor''s family in the master''s college. For a long time, arithmetic has been unknown among hundreds of schools. However, with compulsory education and Merton''s theory that people''s daily use is the Tao, even Kong Desheng had to admit that the future potential of arithmetic must be unlimited. I heard that this person not only proposed parabola at a young age, but also helped the imperial court plan It''s also a rare talent to calculate a catapult.


    "Let him go!" Kong Desheng nodded without suspecting others.


    Seeing this, Kong Yingda had no choice but to swallow the fact that Zu Mingjun and Merton had a difficult relationship. Compared with today''s Mohist people''s idea that daily use is the Tao, this little thing is no longer worth mentioning.


    With the passage of time, Merton''s idea that people''s daily use is the Tao soon spread in Chang''an city. Some people scoffed and thought it was sensationalism, while others were overjoyed and called it golden and good advice. The battle of a hundred schools was put on the table again and talked about by Chang''an city.

 Chapter 740

    "The three brothers are here. Why don''t you see brother mo." in the yuzhuangyuan building, Zu Mingjun took Kong huisuo into the private room and saw Qin Huaiyu''s three people.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, my young master can''t come here for something. I specially told you to take good care of you young masters!" before Qin Huaiyu answered, Yu Er came out behind them and smiled at the five people.


    Kong huisuo''s face was stiff and his mind was dark when he thought of the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism.


    "Morton is really going too far." Chumo slaps his thigh and says loudly.


    "Ah! Brother Mo is also......" when Kong Hui Thornton was warm in her heart, she couldn''t help talking for Merton and making a round.


    On one side, Qin Huaiyu said angrily, "what''s the same? Brother Kong also said good words for this guy who sees color and forgets righteousness?"


    "See color forget righteousness!" Kong huisuo couldn''t help a burst of silly eyes.


    Zu Mingjun looked surprised and said, "didn''t you say that you can''t meet before marriage? Is brother Mo still..."


    Before Zu Mingjun finished, Kong huisuo suddenly realized that Princess Changle would attend the ink technology exhibition. Merton must have gone to see Princess Changle at the moment.


    Thinking of this, Kong huisuo was relieved. Unconsciously, he had attached great importance to his friendship with Merton.


    Wei Chi Baolin nodded with justice on his face and seriously despised Merton.


    "That''s Morton. You think he will abide by these old rules and bad habits," Chumo said with a curl of his mouth.


    "I don''t care about him. Today we''re just going to pick up the wind and wash the dust for brother Kong. This meal is on Merton''s head. Who makes him absent! Brother Kong, please sit on the throne." Qin Huaiyu said warmly, pushing Kong huisuo to the throne.


    Kong huisuo couldn''t refuse, so he had to sit down. Several people laughed and talked about the differences of this year. The feelings of his classmates over the past few years were even stronger.


    "Brother Zu is still used to the master''s college now!" Qin Huaiyu asked. After Zu Mingjun arrived in Chang''an City, he has been following Master Li in the master''s college. Qin Huaiyu knows.


    Zu Mingjun couldn''t help but say proudly, "I found that the master''s college is the best way for me to learn arithmetic. Once everyone in the world learns arithmetic, it will be the time when my arithmetic will flourish."


    The most important reason why Zu Mingjun is willing to stay in the master''s college is to see the potential of the master''s college. It has always been the dream of the Zu family to carry forward mathematics. Now that this opportunity is realized, how can Zu Mingjun not seize it firmly.


    When Kong huisuo saw the look of Zu Mingjun, he couldn''t help a burst of envy. A man who struggled for his dream radiated brilliance everywhere.


    "Brother Zu''s ideal can certainly be realized." Kong huisuo said solemnly.


    "Thank you for your kind words!" Zu Mingjun hugged his fist and turned to Qin Huaiyu. "Look at my little brother, there will be no war in the world in a short time. What are the plans of the three Qin brothers?"


    Today, the Tang Dynasty has just calmed Tuyuhun, and there is gunpowder as a deterrent. The surrounding curfews certainly dare not easily violate the tiger power of the Tang Dynasty. People of insight understand that war is impossible in a short time.


    Qin Huaiyu said proudly, "General Li''s recruit plan has been almost ready. Today, the three of us are going to the military academy to learn the art of war and fight on the battlefield again in the future."


    "Military academy!"


    Although Kong huisuo is far away in Shandong, he also heard about the reform of the strategists and the recruit plan. Once the recruit plan is implemented, the strategists will prosper.


    Kong huisuo sighed: "the four brothers are all fighting for their ideals and carrying forward the theory of one family. Only my little brother has done nothing in the past year. He is very ashamed."


    For a long time, Kong huisuo has been regarded as a honorary title since he was regarded as Kong Sheng. Before, he didn''t look up to strategists and mathematics at all. Later, it was a coincidence that several people got married. Now among the six people, Merton led the revival of Mohism, not to mention the rise of ancestral Mingjun''s mathematics. Once the recruit plan is implemented, strategists will be unstoppable, But he did nothing in Qufu Kong''s family. How can he not sigh.


    As an ambitious young man, who has no ambition to make a career.


    Qin Huaiyu suddenly patted Kong huisuo on the shoulder and said, "I won''t say much before. Since brother Kong came to Chang''an City, we will create a foundation together with our brothers."


    Kong huisuo spread his hand and said, "my little brother has little talent and learning, and I don''t have brother Mo''s talent. What can I do?"


    "What''s the matter? Brother Kong wants to complete his career. It''s not easy. It''s up to me." Qin Huaiyu is careless and looks like he''s in charge.


    "It''s on you..." Kong huisuo looked at Qin Huaiyu and didn''t believe it.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at Kong huisuo''s expression and immediately quit. He bowed his head and thought for a while. Suddenly, he clapped his hands and said: "Well, when we were studying, we often encountered some unknown characters or rare characters. We often argued endlessly and asked the teacher to solve our doubts. If brother Kong included the fonts of the world, take the characters as the book. The homonyms were compiled together, write notes, number, page number, and then sort them out one by one in the catalogue, or inquire by radicals, and then use the stroke order as the auxiliary, How does brother Kong think this idea can help people find unknown fonts in the shortest time? "


    "Collect the world''s fonts and use words as books!" Kong huisuo was shocked. As a scholar, how can he not have the idea of writing books to pass on to future generations? Qin Huaiyu''s proposal made Kong huisuo palpitate.


    "Even the name, I have prepared it for you. It''s called the dictionary," Qin Huaiyu said proudly


    "But with Zhuyu in Shuowen Jiezi, can this proposal work?" Kong huisuo hesitated.


    It''s no wonder Kong huisuo hesitated. After all, the influence of Shuowen Jiezi is too great. If he included the world''s fonts again, wouldn''t he imitate.


    Qin Huaiyu shook her head and said, "Shuo Wen Jie Zi is indeed a rare masterpiece. However, in my younger brother''s opinion, there is a big defect, that is, too much attention is paid to the source of words and it is impossible to query quickly. The dictionary proposed by my younger brother They are homophonic words. If you only know the sound and don''t know the word, you can use the sound to check it. If you only know the word and don''t know the sound, you can use the radical stroke to check. In the shortest time, you can find out that you can''t write or don''t know its meaning. How can you not be popular with students all over the world? At that time, students all over the world will have a dictionary , brother Kong''s name must be passed down to the Tang Dynasty. "Qin Huaiyu said proudly.


    Kong huisuo''s heart surged and his blood was boiling when he heard the speech.


    "Wonderful! This plan is in line with brother Mo''s idea that people''s daily use is the way, and there is much to be done!" Zu Mingjun repeatedly agreed. Compulsory education is to enlighten children. Naturally, everyone will encounter unknown words in the process of going back to school. Since everyone needs to use them, does the dictionary still worry about being unable to spread?


    "Congratulations to brother Kong on becoming a family!" the people congratulated one after another.


    However, Kong huisuo was not complacent. Instead, he mused: "listening to your words is better than reading books for ten years. Although my younger brother has little talent and learning, he can only sort out the world''s words, and not only my younger brother can do it. I think it''s not difficult for brother Qin. I don''t know why brother Qin handed over this good policy to my younger brother."


    It''s really not difficult to collect the world''s fonts. As long as there are enough people and it takes time, Qin Huaiyu can finish it. Even if he doesn''t do it himself, it''s not easy to invite a few masters.


    Qin Huaiyu looked at each other, laughed and said, "our brothers are soldiers. It''s just that we have a dictionary. Besides, we have many ideas to become famous. This is just the simplest one."


    "There are so many?" Kong huisuo and Zu Mingjun were shocked. If they had thought Qin Huaiyu was talking big, but with Zhuyu in the dictionary, they couldn''t help believing.


    "That''s right. In those days, the three of us talked about the past and present together with brother Mo, determined to remain famous in history, and thought of countless good strategies. Unfortunately, the hot-air balloon chosen by the three of us was on the verge of success, but who could have thought that it would be a pity for us to reach the sky and the moon in less than two years!" Qin Huaiyu beat his chest and sighed, regretting the original way.


    Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin look like they have no love. If Li Shimin hadn''t taken away the hot-air balloon, it would be their three brothers who took off in the hot-air balloon. It would be so windy that they wouldn''t directly crush all the dandies in Chang''an city.


    Yes, their regret is not to explore the place of immortals, but to miss an opportunity to make a big show.


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help a moment of silence. Although he was very excited about the proposal of the dictionary, this proposal was put forward by Merton after all. I''m afraid it would be inappropriate if he adopted it rashly.


    "Why, don''t you think it''s too small? There are other things. There are so many medicinal materials in the world. What do you think if there is a medical code containing medicinal materials and prescriptions in the world? If it doesn''t work anymore, there will be countless animals and plants in the world, and all their records will be classified one by one..." Qin Huaiyu said a series of famous plans, which stunned Zu Mingjun and Kong huisuo.


    Zu Mingjun was speechless for a while. The four people made some trouble together, but apart from others, if someone really did this, it would not be impossible to go down in history.


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help laughing bitterly. In contrast, the workload of the dictionary is the smallest and the easiest to get results.


    "Brother Kong''s worries are clear to zumou. However, Mohist hospital was initiated by Mohist school, and compulsory education came from Mohist school, which was finally adopted by Master Li and mathematics. If brother Kong is too persistent in his views, it will be the way of saints if the dictionary that benefits the world continues to dust." Zu Mingjun zhengse said.


    Kong huisuo changed one after another, and finally took a deep breath in his airway: "let your brothers laugh, my little brother is ashamed."


    "That''s right, my brothers and I have nothing to avoid. In the future, our six brothers will be famous in the Tang Dynasty." Qin Huaiyu laughed and said proudly.


    "Not only that, if brother Kong''s dictionary is compiled, the master''s college and the schools under his name will give priority to ordering a batch." Zu Mingjun clapped his mind. He still has this power in the master''s college, but the dictionary is really a good enlightenment.


    "Thank you!" Kong huisuo said solemnly.

 Chapter 741

    In the Mohist experimental field, I saw the selfless Mohist son walking with Princess Changle,


    They are on the trail in the experimental field, playing an old game, flying kites!


    It''s spring at the moment. The wheat seedlings in the experimental field haven''t grown yet. It''s a good season to fly kites.


    Merton held a swallow shaped kite and ran ahead suddenly. With the help of the wind, the kite with a long tail quickly soared up.


    "Fly up! Fly up!" Changle, who had been in the palace for a long time, couldn''t help cheering and jumping when she saw the kite flying.


    "I want to play too..." Princess Jinyang raised her hands and looked forward to it.


    Merton handed the kite to Princess Jinyang and instructed Princess Changle to fly a kite in person. They stood together. Merton jumped out a few witty words from time to time, which made Princess Changle laugh constantly.


    Merton could not help but sigh that if Princess Jinyang had not been used as a light bulb, he would have dated Princess Changle.


    "This is the sage''s way of Tangtang Mozi?"


    Suddenly, a dignified voice suddenly appeared behind them.


    Merton and Princess Changle were startled. Looking back, they saw Li Shimin staring at them displeased. Behind him, the three brothers Li Chengqian were shrinking their heads like quails, and their kites had long fallen to the ground.


    "Father!"


    When Princess Changle saw Li Shimin beside her, she was ashamed and looked at a loss, but she didn''t loosen the kite line in her hand.


    As soon as Merton gritted his teeth, he stood in front of Princess Changle and bowed down and said, "this is the fault of Wei minister. Changle has been very dull in the palace for a long time. It happened that today is the ink technology exhibition. Wei minister wanted to ask Changle to go out of the Palace to relax."


    When Changle heard the speech, he felt warm in his heart and quickly apologized: "the child is greedy for playing, and please punish his father and Emperor."


    Li Shimin looked at the two people asking for forgiveness. He couldn''t help but feel powerless. It''s really a big mistake for women! He always knew that Merton and Princess Changle were flirting, but he couldn''t catch it. Now he finally caught it. But when they were about to get married in half a month, what else could he say.


    Li Shimin''s face was bleak and said, "well, since you''re out today, you''d better accompany me. I''m afraid you''ll spend less and less time with your father and emperor in the future."


    "Father! Look what you said, the child will always be your daughter!" Princess Changle said softly.


    "Father, you still have your son!" Princess Jinyang came forward and hugged Li Shimin''s thigh like a sweet little cotton padded jacket.


    The father and daughter talked for a while, and Li Shimin slowly turned happy. Li Chengqian couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief. They finally avoided one session.


    "After going back, the three of you will write an article and give it to me based on the daily needs of the people!" without waiting for the three brothers to relax, Li Shimin''s light sentence immediately made the three look bitter.


    Li Zhi angrily denounced Merton with an exaggerated face. If it weren''t for the fact that the Mohists invited sister Changle to play, they would have returned to the palace after watching the ink technology exhibition. Where would Li Shimin catch them.


    He doesn''t like to write articles. I''m afraid he''ll have to rack his brains this time. I don''t know how much brain power he spends.


    Li Chengqian and Li Taike are not as simple as Li Zhi. They can''t help but move in their hearts. Since Li Shimin asked them to write articles with the daily use of the people as the Tao, doesn''t it mean that Li Shimin also agrees with Merton''s theory that the daily use of the people is the Tao, and they can''t help but turn their eyes to Merton.


    "And you!" Li Shimin turned his head and stared at Merton with good intentions.


    Merton was so brave that he said proudly, "please tell your majesty."


    "Since you put forward that the daily use of the people is the way, I will let you use this concept to create something beneficial to the people all over the world, and based on the atmospheric pressure principle you spent a lot of time to solve today." Li Shimin sneered.


    What he criticized most about Merton was the behavior of his black sheep. Today, Merton spent thousands of money just for an unknown atmospheric pressure, which made Li Shimin unhappy. Now he saw that Merton deviated from his good daughter Changle, and he was unhappy with Merton and couldn''t help raising the idea of embarrassing Merton.


    "Ah!" Merton was dumbfounded. Isn''t a kill worth enough? Li Shimin asked him to make another one.


    Seeing Merton''s embarrassed look on his face, Chengqian and Li suddenly felt great in their hearts. The resentment originally caused by writing the article was immediately swept away.


    Suddenly, Merton looked at the kite line in Changle''s hand. At the other end of the line, a kite was still spreading its wings in the wind. Merton had an idea and said, "wind! Yes, it''s the wind. Weichen thought that the common wind is caused by atmospheric pressure."


    "Wind?" everyone was stunned. Naturally, the wind is well known, but everyone knows nothing about how the wind is formed.


    "The wind is caused by atmospheric pressure. What''s the explanation?" Li Shimin said with great interest. All the people can feel the wind all the time, but they don''t have a trace of understanding. Until Merton put forward the idea of oxygen and air, they understand that they are not surrounded by nothing, but wrapped by air.


    Merton stretched out his arms, and the strong wind blew Merton''s clothes away. He said proudly, "since the air has weight, there will be pressure. The wind is like running water. There must be a force to promote the air flow, and this force must be atmospheric pressure."


    People can''t help thinking. Merton uses water as an example to compare the wind. It can be said that it is very appropriate. The principle of water flow immediately cares about the origin of the wind. Moreover, water can carry boats, wind can blow kites and float hot-air balloons.


    "So this is the wind!" Li Shimin said with emotion. He couldn''t help feeling enlightened.


    Li Tai''s eyes suddenly lit up. Although the air pressure is the knowledge of Mohism, the wind is a natural phenomenon in heaven and earth. Naturally, it can be included in kuodi chronicles. In this way, after his kuodi chronicles cracked the cloud, he cracked the wind again, which is a surprise.


    "So it is!" Li Chengqian also suddenly realized that he could not help looking at Merton with surprised eyes. As Merton said, what the Mohists studied was a phenomenon hidden between heaven and earth.


    "Even if you''re right, my request is to let you create a thing that is beneficial to the people all over the world. What''s the use for the world if you break the wind?" Li Shimin didn''t let Merton go so easily.


    "Of course, it''s useful. In the future, if we can measure the wind speed and direction according to the air pressure and direction of the wind, prevent coastal storms in advance, protect the safety of fishermen at sea, and even predict the direction of clouds and predict the weather in a few days," Morton said.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing and couldn''t wait to ask, "can Mohism make it?"


    Merton suddenly lost his momentum, shook his head and said, "at present, it is impossible. I''m afraid the use of air pressure must be like Mohist''s optics. Without millennium development, it is impossible to achieve with the help of specific artifacts. However, once optics meets glass, it plays an unimaginable role."


    The people suddenly sighed with disappointment. The millennium is too long. I''m afraid they can''t see it.

 Chapter 742

    The people immediately sighed with disappointment. The millennium is too long for them to see.


    Merton said confidently, "although it is impossible to achieve it at present, if the Mohists have been studying it, it will certainly shorten the process several times."


    "That''s hundreds of years later," Li Shimin sneered, and didn''t want Merton to muddle through so easily.


    Merton gritted his teeth and said, "if your majesty wants to see the results immediately, there is one for Weichen."


    "Oh!" the crowd couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    "Pressure cooker!" Merton said word by word.


    "What is a pressure cooker!" the crowd looked at Merton in disbelief.


    Merton said proudly, "I''ll cook on weekdays. As long as the water in the pot boils, it won''t be long before it will be cooked. The Mohists count the freezing of water as zero and the boiling of water as 100 degrees."


    As soon as Li Tai''s eyes lit up, he quickly took it to heart.


    Merton then said, "however, during the western expedition, Wei Chen heard a strange story. When the southern route army led by general Hou and General Li was marching on the Tibetan Plateau, he wanted to camp and cook, but he found that the water was boiling, but he couldn''t cook the pasta and meat at all. He tested the water temperature by hand. It was far less hot than the boiled water in the plain."


    "Should there be such a miracle?" Li Shimin said strangely.


    Merton solemnly said, "this is the personal experience of tens of thousands of soldiers. How can Weichen talk nonsense? Since it was found that they were not cooked well, many soldiers mostly ate dry food or barbecue directly, which did not affect the March."


    Li Shimin just nodded. So many people have experienced it personally. If they want to come to Merton, they will not lie here.


    "Does it have anything to do with the atmospheric pressure?" Li Tai asked puzzled. Of all the people, I''m afraid he is most interested.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, if the plateau is too high, the air is thin and there is a lack of oxygen. Since the air is thin, the natural air pressure is low. Therefore, Weichen speculates that if the air pressure is low, the boiling water boils less than 100 degrees. Therefore, we can''t cook noodles and meat. We are in the plain, the air pressure is normal, and the boiling water is just 100 degrees. If we seal a pot and its cover, once the water boils, there will be great pressure The amount of water vapor volatilizes and increases the pressure in the pot. Similarly, the water in the pot will boil at a higher temperature. In this way, we can cook food faster and save firewood with this pressure cooker. "


    The princesses and princes were confused about how to cook. Only Li Shimin heard the words. According to Merton''s inference, there was really no problem.


    "It''s kind of interesting!" Li Shimin nodded. If the pressure cooker envisaged by Merton comes out, it will certainly benefit the people all over the world.


    Li Tai shook his head and said, "as soon as brother Mo''s pressure cooker comes out, I''m afraid Tubo will benefit the most!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "the pressure cooker is indeed wonderful in the Tubo plateau. However, for thousands of years, Tubo has had its own eating habits. I''m afraid only a few Tubo dignitaries can use the pressure cooker. What really benefits me is the people of the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin nodded again and again and said, "OK, even if you pass this time, it doesn''t count until the pressure cooker is really done."


    Hearing the speech, Princess Changle couldn''t help looking at Merton with adoring eyes. It seems that nothing can get Merton in her heart.


    Li Shimin looked at Princess Changle''s eyes and couldn''t help feeling bored. Before that, his father was the person his daughter admired most. At present, his face was flat and said, "it''s not short for you to leave the palace. Hurry back!"


    "Yes, father!"


    The crowd quickly bowed their heads and had to follow Li Shimin back to the palace.


    "Congratulations to the emperor!"


    Merton watched Li Shimin leave. He couldn''t help but feel a burst of regret. I''m afraid this is the last time he and Changle met before marriage, but fortunately it''s not long. They will be married in half a month, and they can get along day and night.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Pressure cooker!"


    In the Mo mansion, Lao Zhang''s head and fish looked at Merton with unbelievable eyes.


    Merton nodded and said, "if this pot can be made, the Mohist food city will have another bottom card."


    The second fish frowned and said, "but young master, if the lid is sealed too tightly, it won''t burst."


    Merton glanced at Lao Zhang''s head next to him and said, "that''s why you and Uncle Zhang should do this together. We should not only ensure that the pressure in the pot is high, but also let the pressure release steam and reduce the pressure if it is too high."


    Now the Mojia village has become formal. He doesn''t need to do many things by himself. He directly says the requirements. He believes that Lao Zhang tou and Yu Er will surely create a real pressure cooker.


    In the following time, the whole ink house roared continuously, and the sound of frying pan sounded from the backyard of the ink house. Yu Er and Lao Zhang ran out from time to time, sometimes with injuries on their faces and bruised by the exploding iron flakes, which made it difficult for the whole ink house not to notice.


    "There''s pressure, but I''m afraid I''ll fry the pot before it''s cooked." the second fish sighed.


    Lao Zhang was not discouraged, but firmly said, "since the young master said this method can be done, it must be feasible. The young master has never made a mistake."


    For Merton, Lao Zhang''s head can be said to be blind self-confidence. To tell the truth, although Lao Zhang''s skill is exquisite, he can only be called a craftsman at most. However, his biggest advantage is that once Merton issues the task, he will always study in this direction until he succeeds.


    "Now that the fryer has been fried, it means that the sealing has been done. The rest is to keep how to release the excess pressure, and not to release too much!" Lao Zhang said.


    Fish 2 nodded solemnly. This is the most difficult place.


    "It''s not easy. Since the gas in the pot needs to be discharged, just drill a hole in the pot cover!" suddenly Wu Meiniang''s curious head stretched out. The two of them made such a big noise in the ink house, which naturally shocked Wu Meiniang. Now she is very interested in the ink technology of the Mohist School and naturally came together.


    Lao Zhang said with a bitter smile, "Mei Niang doesn''t know. Once the hole is drilled, the gas will be discharged and the air pressure in the pot will not rise."


    "Then plug this hole again." Wu Meiniang didn''t understand.


    "Isn''t that white drilling..." the fish said with a depressed face.


    However, Lao Zhang suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said with great joy, "by the way, plug this hole. This is the pressure cooker the young master wants."


    The second fish looked at Lao Zhang''s head and didn''t understand what he meant.


    Lao Zhang was so excited that he couldn''t help walking back and forth, dancing and saying, "blocking the hole is not to block the hole, but to press it with a heavy object. If the pressure in the pot is too high, it will naturally open. After the gas is released, the heavy object will naturally press the hole again. In this way, the domestic air pressure will certainly be maintained."


    Yu Er suddenly realized that he was overjoyed. According to Merton''s promise, if anyone developed new ink technology, he could enjoy a 5% commission, wouldn''t it mean that he could also share in this pressure cooker.


    "A heavy object alone may not be enough. Even we can use a spring to make a vent valve, which will certainly have a better effect." Lao Zhang''s head touches the channel next to the class, but now the spring valve can''t be made in a short time, so we can only use a heavy object to replace it first.


    Soon, in the whole backyard, a sharp sound of gas overflow rang through the whole backyard.


    Accompanied by a strong smell of meat, it floated throughout the ink house, which made people move their forefingers. People from the ink house gathered one after another.


    "How fragrant!"


    "The meat melts in the mouth!"


    "Even the bones are soft. You can''t cook them for a day."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With all the people in the ink house exclaiming, the pressure cooker was finally developed successfully.

 Chapter 743

    The emergence of pressure cooker can be said to be the most powerful evidence of ink technology from theory to reality. The Mohists immediately publicized it in ink journals, and publicized it as evidence that the daily use of Merton people is the way, which immediately caused a violent response in Chang''an city.


    After all, Merton''s atmospheric pressure theory was thrown out in the ink technology exhibition, and it has been applied so soon, which is too efficient.


    However, the citizens of Chang''an city did not wait too long. Mojia village immediately took action in the shortest time to set up a pot workshop that was about to decline and specialized in making pressure cooker.


    The first batch produced was immediately used by yuzhuangyuan building and Food City, and launched many imported food, which was immediately widely praised.


    After the pressure cooker became popular in Chang''an City, Mojia village sold the pressure cooker to the public for the first time,


    Ma Liang is an ordinary citizen of Chang''an city. He does a small business on weekdays and lives very well in Chang''an city. However, he has a hard word to hide, that is, his teeth are almost bad and he can''t chew meat at all.


    At ordinary times, he is greedy. At least he has to cook meat for most of the day before he can barely eat it. He needs to buy firewood to burn in Chang''an city. The firewood burned for most of the day is not a small amount. I''m afraid he will soon catch up with the price of a pot of meat. How can he not feel distressed.


    Today, when he saw the description of the pressure cooker in the ink magazine, he was so excited that he made a special trip to the Mohist boutique to buy a pressure cooker.


    "How fragrant!"


    Ma Liang just arrived in Dongshi and smelled a strong smell before he reached the boutique.


    "Is this?" Ma Liang followed the fragrance and came to the Mohist boutique. He saw a charcoal stove in front of the store. A strange pot was emitting a wisp of steam and accompanied by a sharp sound.


    Seeing more and more people gathered in front of the store, Xu Jie couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction and said in a loud voice: "this is the latest product of Mohism - pressure cooker. Its principle is the atmospheric pressure at the ink technology exhibition. Now the pot is full of ribs and has been cooking for only half an hour. Now let''s see the effect?"


    Xu Jie said, slowly opening the pressure cooker according to the process, and suddenly the rich meat fragrance filled the air. Xu Jie picked up a chopstick and gently picked up a sparerib. Before he took out how high, the bones and meat had separated.


    "It takes only half an hour to achieve the usual effect of at least half a day. Now I''ll invite some people with bad teeth to taste it." Xu Jie said. He found several old people with serious tooth loss at the scene, including Ma Liang with bad teeth.


    When Ma Liang picked up the entrance of a piece of ribs, his eyes lit up. What moved him was not the delicious ribs, but the meat was so rotten that he had no trouble eating even with bad teeth. More importantly, this pot is very firewood saving and time-consuming, which is enough to save a lot of firewood.


    "The meat is not only instant, but also more delicious. I want to buy a pressure cooker!" Ma Liang said without hesitation.


    "I want it too!" other old people also moved one after another. After all, pressure cooker is too practical for them.


    Seeing people rush to buy one after another, I heard someone personally confirm that there were old people at home, so they came forward to buy one after another.


    In addition to these old people with bad teeth, the real buyers are the major hotels in Chang''an city.


    Today''s fish champion building is the wind vane of major hotels in Chang''an city. After the champion building took the lead in using the pressure cooker and launched the first pickle made from the pressure cooker, the pressure cooker immediately appeared in the back kitchen of major restaurants in Chang''an City in the shortest time.


    "Young master, this is a new delicacy in our shop. It is made from Mojia village pressure cooker. It''s delicious." in an ordinary restaurant in Chang''an City, a waiter brought the delicious food full of aroma to Li Yun.


    Li Yun was stunned. He didn''t expect that Mojia village had made this thing in such a short time.


    "The Mohist people''s daily use is the Tao theory is really extraordinary. It''s very convenient to cook meat in this pot. I''m afraid every family can''t live without it in the future. Mohist is simply famous and rich." a diner nearby exclaimed.


    In order to prove Merton''s theory that people''s daily use is the Tao, the Mohists set the price of pressure cooker not high, but it can''t stop the only business, and more importantly, the quantity is large.


    People in Chang''an City consume a lot of firewood, and there are not a few who can eat meat. Besides, no one has an old man. Once the pressure cooker is out, it will be sold out in Chang''an City alone.


    Although the delicious meat is delicious, Li Yun''s face is more heavy, and his heart keeps thinking about the theory that people''s daily use is the Tao, which can''t help feeling more.


    Compared with the Mohist village controlled by the Xiangli family, the Xiangfu family has fallen too far behind. I''m afraid the former Mohist three points have gradually become unbalanced.


    "People''s daily use is the way. In contrast, building bridges is also people''s daily use!" Li Yun said firmly in his heart.


    At the same time, among the other hundred, with the emergence of pressure cooker, the concept of daily use as the Tao has been paid more and more attention by more and more people. Many hundreds of families are introspective, and have unconsciously begun to move closer to people''s daily use.


    In the back kitchen of Confucius house!


    Kong huisuo stood in front of a pressure cooker and looked at the steam coming out of the exhaust valve. He was stunned there.


    "Young master! Why are you here!" a Confucian cook was shocked when he saw Kong huisuo appear in the kitchen and hurried forward.


    Kong huisuo came back and explained, "this is the latest secret skill of Mohism, pressure cooker. Mohism is a strong enemy of Confucianism. I naturally want to study it well."


    Kong huisuo''s words were also explained. The cook of Kong family didn''t doubt it, but looked at the strange pressure cooker in front of him with a strange face and exclaimed: "it''s said that this pot is very magical. It can easily cook the ribs, and it takes a very short time."


    As a cook, how could he resist such magical kitchenware even if he was a cook of Confucius? Naturally, he has heard of the reputation of pressure cooker.


    Kong huisuo nodded and said, "what my young master uses is spareribs. Now it should be almost cooked. It''s just that my second uncle has bad teeth and is just filial to his old man."


    Hearing this, the cook of Confucius changed his face and said, "this is the pressure cooker of Mohism! If you let the second uncle know, it would be great."


    Kong Desheng''s dislike of Mohist things is well known in the Kong family. If he knew, he would be furious if he ate the food made of Mohist pressure cooker.


    Kong huisuo shook his head and said, "if you don''t tell me, who knows?"


    Kong huisuo didn''t talk nonsense. Kong Desheng believed that a gentleman was far from cooking. He had never been in the kitchen in his life.


    "This......" the cook of the Kong family couldn''t help but hesitated.


    "Don''t worry, a young master will carry it in case of an accident. You can keep up with it. After eating this meal, you can throw it away." Kong huisuo waved his big hand.


    The cook of the Confucius Mansion nodded slowly. In this way, there was no problem.


    In the front yard, Kong Desheng looked worried. He personally came to Chang''an City and found that the momentum of the rise of Mohism is very obvious. It can be imagined that tens of thousands of people participated in an ink technology exhibition alone.


    He is worried about Merton''s idea that the daily use of the people is the Tao. Once this idea is published, it can be said that it has found a theoretical basis for the behavior of Mojia village. Confucianism can no longer attack Mojia unscrupulously.


    What made him pay more attention was Merton. Before that, he only heard about the name of the Mohist school. He heard about Merton''s name from the middle of some poems and deeds. Before he came, he despised it and thought that Merton was just a yellow haired boy, and the rumors were exaggerated.


    Now, after he personally contacted the Mohist school, he found that Merton was not an ordinary teenager. In addition to his brilliant talent, he also had an extraordinary appeal. Merton talked freely under the attention of thousands of people, and he had his own experience at the scene.


    "See you, my son!" Kong huisuo pushed the door and entered.


    "So you''re a boy!" Kong Desheng frowned when he saw Kong huisuo coming in. Kong huisuo and Mozi are the same generation, but they are also descendants of all schools. Kong huisuo is far worse than Mozi. It can be said that goods are still better than goods, and people die than people. It''s strange that Kong Desheng can be happy. Compared with the rise of Mohism, the Kongs have no successors!


    "When I returned to my second uncle, my grandson passed by the kitchen, and the cook made a dish of meat. It was very delicious. It was ready to be tasted by my second uncle." Kong huisuo changed the topic and stretched out his hand. The cook of the Confucius house brought a dish of meat with overflowing aroma.


    "Meat?" Kong Desheng frowned when he heard the speech. He was very old and couldn''t chew meat at all. However, when he smelled the attractive smell, he provoked a piece and put it in his mouth, and his eyes brightened.


    "I didn''t expect you to have this skill?" Kong Desheng looked at the cook of the Confucius house with a surprised look on his face.


    The cook of the Confucius family touched a handful of empty sweat, looked at Kong Desheng, hardened his head and said, "I heard that the second uncle didn''t like meat, so he didn''t offer it."


    Kong Desheng tasted the delicious meat. He couldn''t help sighing: "that''s my bad mouth. I thought I didn''t like meat at that time. You can often make some meat in the future, but it must be rotten."


    "Ah!" the cook of Confucius house was shocked and looked at Kong Desheng in disbelief.


    "What''s the matter? Is there a problem?" Kong Desheng frowned.


    The Confucian cook quickly bowed his head and said, "no, no problem."


    He was ready to throw away the pressure cooker, but now Kong Desheng ordered him that if there was no pressure cooker, he could not cook such delicious food.


    Seeing this, Kong huisuo couldn''t help thinking. It turned out that the second uncle didn''t hesitate to be Mohist, not Mohist. At present, his heart made a decision on the dictionary


    Originally, he wanted to come over to discuss the dictionary with Kong Desheng. Now he naturally swallowed what he said. He knew that if he took the initiative to explain, the dictionary would die without illness. Only after he made it himself, Kong Desheng would eat it like the meat stewed in a pressure cooker in front of him.


    Kong Desheng, on the other side, tasted this delicious food with endless aftertaste and couldn''t help sighing


    "How fragrant!"

 Chapter 744

    "There will be three stages of Mohist ink skills. First, as in the pre-Qin period, Mohist children observe everything in the world and accidentally discover ink skills, which are regarded as the top secret of Mohist." in the study of Mohist house, Merton is giving Wu Meiniang a second lesson.


    Wu Meiniang said thoughtfully, "it''s like a live fish secret skill!"


    Merton nodded with appreciation and said, "yes! When we explore all things in the world, we will inadvertently find something beneficial to people and make use of it. This is the most primitive ink technology. However, at this time, the Mohists just know what it is but don''t know why. They cherish themselves and treat it as a treasure and don''t show it to people."


    "What about Mohism now?" Wu Meiniang said incomprehensibly.


    Merton proudly said, "today''s Mohist school is in the second stage. That is, Mohist school should not only discover the ink technology in this world, but also study the principle of these ink technology, that is, know its nature, but also know its reason."


    "Know what it is and why? Is it the reason why master Hua Wanguan offered a reward for well killing?" Wu Meiniang said in her heart.


    Merton nodded heavily and said, "now Mohism is also in a very special period. We should not only constantly discover the ink skills that can be used by the people like the first stage, but also know why and understand the truth of heaven and earth hidden in these ink skills."


    "But a well killing mystery needs tens of thousands of Guan, which is too expensive!" Wu Meiniang frowned. She was the daughter of the Duke before. Naturally, she had no concept of money. However, since she was expelled from the Wu mansion, she joined the Mohist school to have a sufficient understanding of money. Naturally, she knew how amazing the value of Wan Guan''s money is.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it seems that the Mohist school has suffered a great loss and spent a lot of money to get a pile of useless principles. Confucius said that hearing the Tao in the morning and dying in the evening, the Confucian Avenue is the avenue of human relations, and the Mohist Avenue is these hidden heaven and earth avenues. This is the three stages of Mohist development. Use these heaven and earth avenues to study the ink technology used by the people."


    "It''s like a pressure cooker." Wu Meiniang suddenly said.


    Merton said proudly: "Yes, in the first stage, the Mohists found that ink technology was accidental, or even lucky. In the second stage, it was even more difficult for the Mohists to study the principles behind ink technology. They couldn''t get it for a lifetime, or even because they didn''t have enough knowledge. However, once we got the principles of these ink technologies, we can use these principles to study ink technology at will Cheng Zhong, the emergence of ink technology is inevitable, and there will be endless ink technology. Do you still think the money is expensive? "


    Wu Meiniang shook her head. In this way, the Mohist took advantage of the great advantage. As long as you understand the principle of ink, the Mohist will continue to emerge ink skills. In this way, the Mohist is making a lot of money.


    "After the pre Qin period, there were various reasons for the decline of Mohism, but the discovery of the contingency of Mohism technology was one of the reasons. Today''s Mohism naturally can''t repeat the mistakes. Only Mohism controls more and more roads of heaven and earth, so that Mohism can be more prosperous and lasting." Merton showed Wu Meiniang broad prospects.


    "Master is wise!" Wu Meiniang said with sincere admiration.


    Merton modestly said, "of course, this road is very long. In a short time, the focus of Mohism is on the first and second stages."


    "What about the Mohist concept of universal love and non aggression? Is it useless?" Wu Meiniang asked with a flash of eyes. He came to Mohist school. One is to contact Mohist technology, but to learn Mohist concept. However, now master only emphasizes Mohist technology, not Mohist concept.


    Merton was stunned. He looked at Wu Meiniang in surprise and said, "the concept of Mohism is to uphold virtue, unity, universal love, non attack, frugal use, festival burial, Tianzhi, Minggui, non music and non life. At this stage, we only ask for Mohist children and have no intention of pushing them to the world."


    "Why is this?" Wu Mei Niang frowned.


    Merton did not answer and asked, "although its concept is not inferior to the Confucian ethics Avenue, in the end, Confucianism is only respected. Do you know why?"


    "As far as the disciples know, Dong Zhongshu deposed a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone, which made Confucianism dominant." Wu Meiniang thought.


    Merton sneered and said, "the secret of the revival of Mohism is the truth behind the insight into all things in the world. Ordinary children only need to study Mohism. However, as a major disciple of Mohism, you are far from enough. You should be involved in court politics and hundred schools of thought. The dominant secret of Confucianism is not the power of Dong Zhongshu alone, but the will of the emperor."


    "Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty!" Wu Mei Niang said in her heart.


    Merton nodded: "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty chose Confucianism to govern the world. The most important thing is the Confucian theory of being loyal to the king and fooling the people, which is conducive to the rule of the emperor. On the contrary, the Mohist theory is just the opposite. If the Mohist school wants to specialize in ink technology, it must be deeply studied and continuously studied. Therefore, if the Mohist theory is to spread and prosper, it must open the wisdom of the people. From this point of view, Confucianism and Mohist school are indeed opposed."


    Wu Meiniang, as a major disciple of the Mohist school, Merton naturally won''t hide anything from her. The dialogue between the teacher and the apprentice can be said to be very profound.


    "Since Confucianism is dominant in the dynasty hall and is more conducive to the rule of the emperor, isn''t it that the Mohist concept has no future?" Wu Meiniang frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said: "Having said that, how can the people all over the world be willing to be poor and foolish all the time? However, in fact, all people with rich families want to send their children to school to change their fate. The primary purpose of Mohism is to develop ink technology, make the people all over the world rich and reduce the cost of learning. I believe that more and more people can open the wisdom of the people. That''s when it will be When Mohism really recovers. "


    In the Mohist School of compulsory education, there are enough 50 students in a classroom, and only two teachers can easily teach. However, there are only a few students in an ordinary private school, even one-on-one teaching. The cost is naturally different. Even the compulsory education promoted by Master Li doesn''t have to worry about the source of students, because the cost they charge is really high compared with that of a private school It''s too low. Even ordinary families can afford it, not to mention the charcoal pen and pen invented by the Mohist school. The cost of the four treasures of the study will be extremely low.


    "So, the core of Mohism is Mohism!" Wu Meiniang grabbed the key point and said excitedly.


    Merton smiled with satisfaction and said: "That''s right! Only by constantly developing ink technology to benefit the people all over the world and even the court can Mohism stand and open the wisdom of the people. If there is no ink technology, empty talk about Mohist ideas is just a castle in the air. This is also the real reason for the decline of Mohism after the pre-Qin period, let alone the deep-rooted status of Confucianism, and our empty talk theory is just for ourselves It''s just humiliation. "


    "I understand!" Wu Meiniang said confidently,


    Merton sighed: "the power of legalism is extremely strong in the hands of Qin Shihuang. Confucianism was the only one in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. However, his majesty today is not inferior to the brilliant emperor of Qin and Han. The opportunity for the rise of Mohism has matured. Mohism must seize this opportunity and not lose."


    He believed that with Li Shimin''s brilliant talent, it was impossible not to see the role of Mohism in the Tang Dynasty. As long as the court remained neutral, the plan for the peaceful rise of Mohism could certainly be realized.


    "Well, class is over. I have something to do as a teacher!" Merton waved. So far, Merton''s second lesson was officially over.


    "Disciple, I''d like to congratulate master on your happy marriage in advance." Wu Meiniang naturally knew that Merton''s affair was a matter of preparing for a big wedding. She said playfully at the moment.


    "Just your skin!" Merton feigned anger.


    Wu Meiniang was not afraid, but ran out with a smile.


    Today is February 15. Merton and Princess Changle will get married tomorrow.

 Chapter 745

    February 16, suitable for marriage.


    It has been a Chinese tradition since ancient times that men should marry and women should marry. Even emperors and women are no exception. Today is the wedding day between Merton and Princess Changle. It has been spread all over Chang''an City for a long time.


    One of them is today''s legitimate princess, and the other is the world-famous MOH family. Their marriage has spread all over the Tang Dynasty since their engagement on New Year''s Eve, which can be said to be the concern of thousands of people.


    Now the Mozi and Princess Changle are about to get married, and talented people and beautiful women will get married. It can be said that everyone is happy to see their success.


    Just before dawn, the whole ink house was already brightly lit. The ink house was covered with red silk, a happy atmosphere,


    The door of Mo mansion, which had been dressed up for a long time, opened with a bang. With the festive sound of gongs and drums, a long welcoming team came out. Merton, led by Merton, rode the shadow of the dead, dressed in the bridegroom''s wedding clothes, and took the lead in the direction of the palace.


    "The Mohist family is welcoming the wedding!" the momentum of the Mohist family naturally startled the neighbors, and people poured out of the gate to watch.


    "The Mohist son is the princess of Changle, and he will be the emperor''s kiss in the future."


    Everyone talked and looked envious. However, no one said that Mohists attached to the royal family. After all, with Merton''s reputation and talent, it was more than enough to match with the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. No one thought it was a high climb.


    "Let''s go!"


    Merton waved his high spirited hand and said that as long as today passed, he would no longer have to be made difficult by Li Shimin.


    As Merton urged his horse to move forward, Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo followed him, followed by a long line of wedding procession.


    "Today we are entering the palace openly!" Chumo, the pioneer of the wedding ceremony, said excitedly.


    Although he once entered the Imperial Palace, it was a pity that he was caught by Li Shimin in the chaos of Chang''an city because of the hot-air balloon flying across Chang''an city. However, this time, they entered the Imperial City openly as Merton''s wedding envoy. Naturally, they are different.


    Qin Huaiyu frowned and said, "today is brother Mo''s wedding day. You can''t hold back!"


    "It''s up to you," Chumo said proudly.


    "But brother Mo''s sedan will be very unique at that time. When my younger brother gets married, he must also make a set." Wei Chi Baolin turned to look at the sedan behind him and said with envy.


    "When we pass Zhuque street, it will certainly cause a sensation." Zu Mingjun shook his head and smiled bitterly.


    The people looked at each other one after another, showing an inexplicable smile. With the continuous progress of the wedding team, they soon turned to Zhuque street, which had already heard the news, and the citizens looked at it one after another.


    "There are no sedan bearers in the wedding procession of mojiazi!" the sharp eyed people exclaimed when the motorcade passed Zhuque street.


    Suddenly, everyone focused on Merton''s wedding team, which was completely different from the traditional wedding team. They directly abandoned the sedan chair and all used the new four-wheel carriage as the wedding car.


    In the center of the motorcade, a wedding car refitted with a traditional sedan chair attracts the attention of the people in Chang''an city. They can see at a glance that it must be the sedan of Princess Changle.


    "The Mo family didn''t even have to lift a sedan to marry Princess Changle, but used a four-wheel carriage as the wedding car." when they saw the wedding car in the center, they suddenly understood Merton''s plan.


    "That''s ok?" an old woman wondered.


    In the traditional wedding, for thousands of years, people have used eight lift sedans to marry the bride. Even ordinary people also carry wedding sedans to welcome the bride into the door. However, mojiazi broke this tradition and abandoned the eight lift sedans carried by people, but converted them into wedding cars with new four-wheel carriages, which has never been done before.


    "Of course, a sedan chair invited several people to carry it. How cheap it was at that time. The new four-wheel carriage in Mojia village is the best carriage in Chang''an city. It''s very valuable. It''s grand to replace the sedan chair with a four-wheel carriage." a rich man said proudly on his face. From the pomp of the welcoming team, the welcoming team and rows of four-wheel carriages of Mojia village are even more grand, And doubled in value.


    "But I used to use eight lift sedans to marry a bride." an old woman frowned.


    "Batai Dajiao has nothing to sit on. She bumped my body in those years. Where is a four-wheel carriage comfortable?" a middle-aged woman said.


    Suddenly, many women nodded subconsciously. With the continuous promotion of four-wheel carriages in Chang''an City, traditional sedan chairs have less and less appeared in the streets of Chang''an city. Gradually, rich households in Chang''an City rarely use sedan chairs. All of them use four-wheel carriages, which are as comfortable as sedan chairs, but more convenient.


    However, there was only one period when the custom of taking a sedan chair did not change, that is, when getting married, you need to use eight big sedans to welcome the bride.


    However, today, the Mohist family broke this Convention and directly used a four-wheel carriage and sedan chair to refit into the first wedding car to marry Princess Changle.


    "Yes, Mojia village is famous for its four-wheel carriage in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, it should use the four-wheel carriage as the wedding car." some people disapprove of Merton''s use of the four-wheel carriage as the wedding car.


    "Moreover, this four-wheel carriage is not only comfortable, but also fast!" the citizens of Chang''an city looked at the fast-moving wedding procession.


    In addition to the top five people riding high headed horses, the other welcoming teams in Mo mansion are basically replaced by four-wheel carriages. Without the drag of the sedan bearer walking, the speed of the whole welcoming team is fast. This is also the reason why Merton and others control the speed and wait for the auspicious time. If they let go of the speed and run wildly, I''m afraid they will arrive before the palace in a short time.


    Looking at the passing luxury motorcade, many unmarried young people in Chang''an city can''t help but shine their eyes. If they use such a motorcade to marry the bride at their wedding, what a scenery it will be.


    Many budget conscious people have calculated an account. If all four-wheel carriages are used as wedding carriages to greet the wedding, I''m afraid it''s more cost-effective to rent eight sedans and sedans. More importantly, it''s faster and more beautiful. After all, the value of this fleet is not only valuable, but also shows the sincerity of marrying a bride.


    "I''m afraid the marriage custom in Chang''an city will change after today." a Chang''an citizen sighed when he looked at the reaction of the people.


    They believe that after mojiazi marries Princess Changle with a wedding car, Chang''an city will surely follow suit. Since then, the use of a wedding car in Chang''an city will certainly become a new custom.

 Chapter 746

    As a Mojia village, the most important thing is the new four-wheel carriage. The long wedding convoy arrived at the palace, which caused a sensation in the whole palace.


    No one thinks that the wedding car modified by the four-wheel carriage instead of the eight lift sedan is not suitable for etiquette. This time, Merton dispatched 50 latest four-wheel carriages as a wedding team. The value of the four-wheel carriage alone has exceeded thousands of passes, which is enough to show his sincerity.


    In particular, Princess Changle''s wedding car directly restores the original appearance of the eight lift sedan, and is rebuilt on this basis. Not only does the space increase a lot, but also under the exquisite hand carving of Lao Zhang''s head, it adds a bit of delicacy, making it more atmospheric and grand.


    Changle hall.


    Princess Changle was sitting in front of the dressing mirror, and several palace maids were busy painting exquisite makeup. It was like a fairy coming down to earth, which was amazing.


    "My sister is so beautiful today. No wonder Merton once said that there are two most beautiful moments in a person''s life. One is when he is newly married and the other is when he is a mother. Sister Changle is the most beautiful woman in the world today. Princess Yuzhang on the side exclaimed.


    The other princesses couldn''t help nodding. Today is the wedding day of Princess Changle. Under her dress, she is more beautiful out of thin air, which makes Princess Changle more outstanding among the princesses.


    "What is the most beautiful today, Merton said. In his heart, his sister will always be the most beautiful." Princess baling said in a charming voice.


    "Yes, yes!" the other princesses coaxed one after another.


    Princess Changle looked at her face in the mirror and couldn''t help showing a shy look.


    "Before long, my sisters will have the most beautiful day." Princess Changle smiled.


    Princess Changle is the first princess of the Tang Dynasty. There are many princesses of similar age behind her. Before long, these princesses will get married one after another.


    Suddenly, many princesses were ashamed. However, looking at the Phoenix crown and glow of Princess Changle, they couldn''t help showing their longing. Especially Princess Yuzhang is only a few months younger than Princess Changle. I''m afraid she will be the most recent one.


    "Yuzhang also wants to get married!" Princess baling joked.


    Princess Yuzhang retorted, "you are only half a month younger than me, not a few days later."


    Princess baling was immediately ashamed and retreated in embarrassment.


    "Well, don''t make trouble. Calculate the time. The auspicious hour is coming, and Merton''s wedding team is coming." Princess Pu''an persuaded.


    The girls settled down a little.


    "The sedan chair is coming, and my brother-in-law''s sedan chair has come!" Princess Jinyang jumped into Princess Changle''s boudoir.


    "Ah! Here comes the sedan chair!" the princesses were pleasantly surprised.


    Jinyang Princess nodded her head and said, "many, many carriages, and a red sedan carriage are the best."


    "Sedan chair and carriage!" the princesses looked at each other and heard the explanation of Princess Jinyang for a long time. Only then did they understand that mojiazi combined the sedan chair and carriage into one and created a unique sedan chair and carriage to meet princess Changle.


    Among the princesses, a trace of jealousy flashed in the eyes of Princess Gaoyang, who had been silent all the time, but her face showed such an appearance. Now the world "yes, we must let mojiazi make a good make-up poem." suddenly, many princesses moved in their hearts and coaxed one after another. To know that mojiazi''s poems are famous in the Tang Dynasty, they can "ah! This won''t..." Cheng''s momentum weakened by three points at Merton.


    "No, just stand aside!" Princess Yuzhang waved directly.


    Chumo has a bad start and retreats directly. Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin consciously stand aside. Zu Mingjun opens his mouth and thinks about his poetic talent. Finally, he silently pushes out Merton behind him.


    Merton approached and whispered, "I''ve seen your sisters. Please accommodate your sisters. A little heart won''t pay tribute!"


    Morton reached out and waved. Qin Huaiyu handed over red envelopes one by one.


    "Red envelope?"


    Princess Yuzhang looked at the big red envelope in her hand. Yu Guang saw a touch of golden light and nodded with satisfaction. She was about to release, but she heard a cough behind her.


    "Although there is a red envelope, you still need to pass the make-up poem to pick up the bride, otherwise your sister''s makeup all night will be in vain." Princess Yuzhang took the red envelope but said without mercy.


    "Yes, it must be a good poem, or you won''t want to pick up your sister." Princess baling helped behind her.


    The other princesses nodded one after another, as if they were not allowed to enter the door.


    Chumo, who was on the other side, said proudly, "why is this difficult? Brother Mo is best at writing poetry."


    Merton smiled bitterly. He could write poetry, but he didn''t know much about makeup poems. It was more difficult to find makeup poems comparable to his previous poems. Of course, this is not the time to admit advice.


    Then Merton thought for a moment and thought of a makeup poem. He first explored the way and said, "Princess Changle is expensive. She is married to the five marquis. Her mother mixes powder and her brother pity flowers. She urges to spread a hundred children''s tent and wait for the seven incense carts. Ask about the future of makeup. The East wants Xiaoxia!"


    This is also a poem about the marriage of Princess Yunyang of the Tang Dynasty. It is a classic of makeup urging poetry, and it just fits the identity of Princess Changle. It is also very suitable to be used here.


    "Mother of heaven mixed the powder, and brother of Japan took pity on the flowers."


    "Excuse me, the East wants Xiaoxia."


    All the princesses are full of poetry. Naturally, they know that this poem is very suitable for today''s atmosphere, and the poem is also superior. However, the hearts of the princesses are somewhat lonely. Although this poem is good, it is far from the poems before Merton.


    "Good poem! What a good poem!"


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, Qin Huaiyu immediately shouted and cheered one after another.


    Princess Yuzhang gave a white look. Don''t they know? Then his eyes moved, nodded and said, "since the groom has made a makeup poem, let''s see if the bride is satisfied."


    Then Princess Yuzhang turned back to Princess Changle''s boudoir, and the other princesses still blocked the door.


    Princess Changle naturally heard this poem long ago. She was in her boudoir. She was picking up a pen and writing it down. She nodded with satisfaction.


    "Sister, what do you think of this makeup poem?" Princess Yuzhang asked.


    Princess Changle nodded with satisfaction and said, "it''s really a rare make-up poem over the years."


    Princess Yuzhang nodded, turned her head and shouted outside, "the bride is not satisfied, and the groom will make another song."


    Princess Changle immediately looked at Princess Yuzhang, who ran to the door smartly and looked back and said, "that''s all the bride wants. There''s no one to urge the bride to come out."


    Princess Changle was ashamed. She didn''t know what Princess Yuzhang was thinking. She must want Merton to write more poems.

 Chapter 747

    Princess Yuzhang came out of her boudoir, proudly looked up at Merton and said, "Merton, you should make persistent efforts. The better you do poetry, the more beautiful your sister''s makeup will be."


    Merton sighed in his heart. Naturally, he knew that the makeup urging poem must not pass the test. Princess Yuzhang must want a poem comparable to those famous poems he had done. If he could not satisfy all the princesses, he couldn''t pass the test today. He couldn''t help thinking for a moment. Suddenly his eyes brightened and thought of a famous poem about makeup.


    "No matter what the makeup of Changle is, she will always be the most beautiful woman in Mo''s heart. I have a poem to express this heart."


    Merton said in a loud voice, "it''s good when the water is shining and sunny, and it''s strange that the mountain is empty and rainy. It''s always appropriate to wear light makeup and heavy makeup if you want to compare Changle with Xizi."


    "Awesome!"


    Zumingjun looked at Merton with admiration, and a famous article opened his mouth, which reminded him of the scene when Merton had just entered the Imperial College, and one person had the power to kill all the creatures in the Imperial College. As for Qin Huaiyu, they were all in admiration.


    "If you want to compare Changle with Xizi, it''s always appropriate to wear light makeup and heavy makeup."


    Listening to this popular poem, the princesses couldn''t help but feel happy. Merton compared Changle to Xi Shi. Both heavy and light makeup are as beautiful as ever.


    "My sister is really lucky."


    The princesses couldn''t help admiring.


    In the boudoir, Princess Changle listened to this poem and couldn''t help smiling sweetly. Looking at the makeup in the dressing mirror, she immediately felt how worthwhile her carefully prepared makeup was.


    "I don''t know, princesses, how about this poem?" Chumo said proudly. He was crushed by a group of princesses before, and now he is finally proud. Don''t you let him make a make-up poem? Now you don''t need to put on makeup. It''s suitable for both light makeup and heavy makeup.


    Faced with such a masterpiece, Princess Yuzhang naturally couldn''t say anything to refute, so she had to nod helplessly and say, "it''s really a good poem."


    "What about this level?" Chumo asks.


    Princess Yuzhang said simply, "you''ve passed this level."


    "Well, please invite the bride out soon." Qin Huaiyu said loudly.


    "Wait a minute!" Princess Gaoyang suddenly stepped out and said, "although you have passed the makeup urging poem, according to mohou, one of the most beautiful moments in a person''s life is the moment when a woman puts on her wedding dress when she gets married. Now her sister is waiting in her wedding dress. In the face of the most beautiful daughter in the world, why don''t mohou write a poem?"


    "Yes, we must write a poem." the other princesses refused.


    Merton used the magic mirror as the bride price, which immediately made the beauty of Princess Changle widely spread. Although Merton''s timely round in the ink technology exhibition and in the harem where beauty is the root of life, how can he not make the princesses jealous? Even the sisters close to him can''t help worrying.


    On the one hand, Merton was unwilling to get through easily. On the other hand, he was persistent in his appearance, and all the princesses united together.


    "They all make up poems. Where else are there poems praising the bride?" Wei Chi Baolin shook his head.


    Princess Gaoyang shook her head and said, "not before, but now. Now the most beautiful woman in the world is in the room. How can it be proved without the best poetry."


    "Yes, as long as we make another poem that can describe your sister''s beauty, we won''t stop you." Princess Yuzhang also felt a little unreasonable and promised.


    "Well, anyway, brother Mo usually writes three poems in a row." Chumo backhanded Morton.


    Zu Mingjun could not help nodding. To know that Merton first became famous in the Tang Dynasty, he took the three poems of the frontier fortress as the starting point.


    Suddenly everyone focused on the groom Merton. After all, Merton has made two good poems in a row.


    At other times, Merton didn''t give advice at all. This is the key moment to greet the wedding. Naturally, Merton can''t lose his chain. At present, Merton''s heart is horizontal and his thoughts are for a moment. Of course, the description of beauty is the three qingpingdiao articles made by Li Bai. However, Changle is a princess and Yang Yuhuan is a noble princess. Except for other princesses, Merton didn''t interrupt. After all, Merton''s opening is really appropriate.


    Naturally, Merton chose another poem "song of eternal regret" describing the four beauties Yang Yuhuan, but Merton did not copy it from the beginning, but intercepted the most suitable sentences.


    "It''s hard to give up the beauty of nature. I''ll be with the king all my life. When I look back, I''ll smile, and the six palaces are colorless." Merton continued.


    "Natural beauty..." Princess Yuzhang''s eyes brightened. You should know that the real name of Princess Changle is Li Lizhi. Merton''s poem directly takes the name of Princess Changle as a poem, which is rare and extremely poetic. As for being with the king all his life, it is the content rewritten by Merton. After all, the princess and the imperial concubine can''t be confused.


    "When I look back, I smile, and the six palaces are colorless." Princess Gaoyang read jealously. If this poem appeared at ordinary times, Merton would certainly offend the whole harem.


    However, today is the time for Princess Changle to get married. Naturally, it is the most beautiful time. Merton''s poems naturally have no problem, but more set off the beauty of Princess Changle. After all, everyone knows that the most beautiful women in the world are in the palace. Princess Changle looks back and smiles, which eclipses the beauties of the six palaces and sets off the beauty of Changle.


    Zu Mingjun couldn''t help marveling at Merton''s talent. He was listening to the happy and dripping moment. However, Merton stopped talking. Anyone knows that there is a remnant poem at the moment. However, Merton doesn''t make remnant poems once or twice. People are not surprised, and these three poems are enough to amaze the whole palace.


    "Welcome! Please the bride to drive!" I don''t know when Qin Huaiyu and her three have quietly slipped to the rear and will knock on the door of the boudoir.


    The princesses just lost Jingzhou in their poems, but now Merton''s poems have been done, and naturally they can''t go back.


    After a while, the door of the boudoir quietly opened, and the princess Changle quietly appeared at the door of the boudoir. In an instant, she was called the focus of the whole audience. Even if she put on a red cap, she still eclipsed the princesses.


    When I look back, I smile, and the back palace powder is colorless. Merton''s poems are not too much.

 Chapter 748

    Merton immediately stayed there and looked at the bride in front of him. Even across the red cap, he could feel his shy and firm eyes.


    At the moment, the crowd separated and just left a passage for them. Merton solemnly stepped forward and stretched out his hand.


    Although Changle was shy, he bravely stretched out his hand and held it with Merton. Suddenly, there were bursts of coaxing around, which didn''t shake them for half a minute.


    "Let''s go. It''s time for us to say goodbye to the emperor and the queen." Merton said solemnly, holding back his excitement.


    Princess Changle nodded. They walked out of the Changle palace hand in hand and came to the Lizheng palace.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun had already been waiting there in the Lizheng palace. Seeing Merton and Changle coming in, they couldn''t help showing an inexplicable feeling.


    "Their daughter is getting married."


    The princess of Changle is their first daughter. Naturally they are very fond of each other. On the other hand, the princess of Changle is sensible and gentle, and filial piety. It is for the condition of the empress of the long grandson that she studied medicine for the empress of the eldest grandson.


    After all, it was because she wanted to get married and let Princess Changle marry changsun Chong. Fortunately, the doctors found out the harm of close relatives'' marriage in time, which made Princess Changle''s marriage invalid.


    She also personally saw the data collected by Li Chengqian on the marriage of close relatives. She shuddered at the thought that she almost didn''t let Princess Changle follow in her footsteps.


    Fortunately, none of this happened. Now the princess of Changle has found a suitable husband. In addition to her family background, Merton can be said to surpass Chang sun Chong in any aspect. Moreover, the makeup urging poem just made by Merton in Changle hall has naturally spread to her ears and naturally looks at Merton differently.


    "It''s easy to get a thousand treasures, but it''s rare to have a lover."


    She was naturally very relieved that her daughter could marry Merton.


    "Daughter, see father and queen mother!"


    "See the emperor and the queen, son-in-law!"


    Merton and Princess Changle bow and salute at the same time. In this era, the relationship between monarch and minister is very strong. Although the son-in-law is married to the princess, he still has a relationship with the emperor. Therefore, Merton''s title to Li Shimin and empress Changle has not changed.


    "Please get up quickly!" empress Chang Sun said with a happy face. The so-called mother-in-law looked more and more pleasing to her son-in-law. Empress Chang sun recognized Merton a lot at that time.


    "When you come to the Mo mansion in the future, you must not be proud of being a princess and be spoiled and charming. You should abide by women''s morality, abide by women''s precepts and teach your husband and children." empress changsun looked at Princess Changle and admonished.


    "My daughter must keep it in mind." Princess Changle nodded and said firmly.


    Li Shimin saw the two men in wedding clothes standing in front of him. After all, Changle was the first daughter of him and the empress changsun. His natural feelings were different. Now he stood in front of him in wedding clothes. As a father, he naturally had a lot of feelings in his heart.


    "Merton, I''ll give you my daughter. If you dare to let Changle suffer a little injustice, I won''t forgive you." although Li Shimin has accepted Merton, it''s impossible for him to give Merton a good face. Now he blows his beard and stares.


    It was not until empress Chang sun privately touched Li Shimin that Li Shimin let Merton go.


    However, today''s Merton doesn''t care about Li Shimin''s attitude. He directly regards these words as Li Shimin''s concern for his daughter. At the moment, he solemnly said: "don''t worry, your son-in-law won''t let the emperor down."


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to the princess of Changle and said softly, "although you have been married, I will keep the Changle hall for you. You will be homesick in the future and can come back often."


    "Thank you, father!" Princess Changle was immediately moved and couldn''t help crying.


    "Well, don''t cry. Today is your big day. You should laugh." empress Chang sun came forward to comfort her, and even she couldn''t help crying.


    The mother and daughter were reluctant to give up. Liu E on one side couldn''t help reminding: "madam, the auspicious hour has arrived."


    Only then did Princess Changle and empress changsun bid farewell to Li Shimin and empress changsun, and then they boarded the sedan chair.


    "The bride has arrived and returned to the house!"


    With Chumo''s loud drink, Merton got on his horse and said goodbye to Li Chengqian and others who came to see him off. Then he urged the horse to move forward. Behind him, 50 four-wheel carriages streamed out of the palace, each carrying Princess Changle''s dowry and the accompanying maid Gong E. after all, Princess Changle naturally needs someone familiar to take care of her when she came to the Mo house.


    In the sedan chair and carriage, Princess Changle looked at the rapid retreat of the familiar palace and knew that from then on, she would leave the place where she had lived for 16 years. In the future, her identity would change from Princess to mistress of the Mo house.


    Looking at the leaving wedding procession, the whole palace couldn''t help sighing. The princess who didn''t get married couldn''t help admiring. She imagined that when she got married, it was such a grand scene. Many concubines were naturally jealous. Although they married the royal family and were selected as imperial concubines, they seemed to have a noble status, but the specification of marriage was not as good as Princess Changle.


    In the harem, Zheng Chonghua looked at the three makeup poems at hand and said with a sad face: "I''m afraid she''s not the most beautiful woman in the world, but the luckiest woman in the world."


    Changle is a princess. Naturally, it has not been affected by the imperial palace. Therefore, the beauty of Princess Changle is not a threat to Zheng Chonghua. However, what really makes Zheng Chonghua jealous is that Princess Changle married Merton.


    Once she was only a day late, so she missed it. From then on, there was another Zheng Chonghua in the palace. If not, these makeup poems are written for her today.


    Suddenly Zheng Chonghua smiled and swept away the original resentment. He smiled at himself in the mirror in front of him, revealing a delicate face. He said proudly: "I Zheng Chonghua in the back palace can make the six palaces pink and white colorless."


    In Gaoyang palace, Princess Gaoyang returned to her palace early, and her heart was crazy with jealousy.


    "Why is Changle''s appearance better than Xi Shi and make the six palaces pink and Dai colorless." Princess Gaoyang refused and tried her best to make up her face. However, even if she painted better, she still felt far worse than Princess Changle''s bridal makeup.


    Among other palaces in the palace, there are scenes of acquaintance everywhere. Under Merton''s three classic makeup urging poems destined to spread for thousands of years, Princess Changle''s marriage is more legendary and more topics.


    Although the first makeup urging poem is suitable for the occasion, few people pay attention to it. Even though Changle has left for a long time, the second and third poems are still popular in the Imperial Palace, especially Huimei smiles and smiles, and the six palaces have no color. Once this poem is published, Princess Changle has become the title of the most beautiful woman in the world, and it is not just the day of her wedding, I''m afraid that with the spread of this poem for thousands of years, perhaps in a few years, the four beauties will have one more Princess Changle.

 Chapter 749

    "Out of the palace!"


    On Zhuque street, Chang''an citizens who had been waiting for a long time saw a touch of red coming out of the palace and exclaimed.


    Suddenly, many citizens rushed to both sides of the street and watched the wedding convoy coming. However, everyone focused on the red sedan carriage in the center. Everyone knew that there must be princess Changle, the legitimate chief Princess of the Tang Dynasty.


    "The Mohists are really lucky!"


    "It''s said that Princess Changle is gentle, knowledgeable and reasonable. She doesn''t have the arrogance of the princess at all. Merton is blessed."


    "That''s not true. Princess Changle controls the Red Cross. I don''t know how many people she has saved, but she is a living Bodhisattva in this world."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People on both sides of the crowd talked one after another.


    "Be quiet and keep order. If you delay the princess''s auspicious hour, let me ask you." a yamen attendant said to maintain order on the roadside.


    The marriage of the first princess of the Tang Dynasty naturally disturbed the Chang''an County Government. Government officials had been on duty in the street for a long time, clearing the road so that the wedding team could pass quickly. Naturally, there would be no farce of future generations holding a car to ask for happy money.


    However, Merton was not stingy. He specially arranged a wedding car to sprinkle wedding candy and copper money to the people on both sides.


    "Thank you, Princess Mo Hou.


    "A hundred years together!"


    "Give birth to your son early!"


    "Grow old together!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many people robbed a lot of copper money and candy, and they couldn''t help shouting their blessings.


    The sound of blessing came into Princess Changle''s ears, which made her shy and happy.


    Merton''s wedding convoy was all carriages. Although they deliberately slowed down, they were still much faster than the flower sedans carried by manpower. They drove fast on the rosefinch street.


    Coincidentally, today is an auspicious day. It was not Merton and Princess Changle who got married today. When the wedding team was half way, it just caught up with another married family.


    This welcoming team adopts the traditional way. The matchmaker is in front, and eight big sedans are carrying flower sedans. Except for the groom riding a tall horse, other people are walking.


    The wedding team set out a long time earlier than Merton. The county yamen didn''t stop it, but let it go aside. When a clatter of Horseshoes passed, Merton''s wedding team soon caught up with it.


    "Congratulations, Congratulations!"


    When Merton saw that the other party had married him on the same day, he couldn''t help congratulating him.


    "Congratulations, Congratulations!" the other bridegroom naturally knew that it was Merton and Princess Changle who got married today. He couldn''t help but take the opportunity to congratulate and catch up on the line. However, before he said a few words of congratulations, he found that Merton''s speed was getting faster and faster. Behind him, four-wheel carriages flew by and soon left him behind.


    "Welcome the wedding with a carriage?" the other groom stared at Merton''s new operation.


    He looked at the carriages running by him, and then at his slow wedding procession. He couldn''t help feeling remorseful. If he could know in advance that he could do so, he would also choose the four-wheel carriage as the wedding carriage to greet the wedding.


    Just now he was blackmailed by a group of sedan bearers. If he didn''t give enough red envelopes, these sedan bearers would deliberately bump the bride and let the bride suffer. If he used a sedan carriage to greet the bride, he would no longer have to suffer from the sedan bearers.


    Even the bride on the sedan chair couldn''t help lifting the curtain and watching the sedan chair and carriage of Princess Changle galloping across the street, her heart was naturally slightly unbalanced, but she was reasonable. After all, it was Princess Changle. Naturally, there was no comparability, and the sedan chair and carriage appeared for the first time.


    Convenient, fast, comfortable and grand, the wedding team could not help but make the citizens of Chang''an nod. By comparison, they naturally had no resistance. When Merton set out, there were many stubborn people who opposed it. Now that the wedding is back, everyone knows that using a four-wheel carriage to greet the wedding will certainly become a new trend of wedding in the Tang Dynasty.


    Although Merton''s wedding team did not run fast, it was still not slow and soon reached Merton house.


    "Here comes the bride!"


    Wu Meiniang, who had already been waiting at the door, saw the arrival of the wedding team and immediately shouted that she was still young and naturally very excited about the wedding.


    Suddenly, all the people in the ink house rushed out to meet them. Merton took the lead and quickly turned down at the door of the ink house. Other carriages continued to move forward until Princess Changle''s sedan carriage came to the front door of the ink house.


    "Please let the bride get off the sedan chair." with Fu Bo''s loud drink, Liu e came forward to open the door of the flower sedan carriage and helped the Phoenix crowned Princess Changle down. Suddenly, everyone''s eyes focused on the bride.


    "Step on the brazier!" shouted fuber.


    The Mohist children on one side immediately put a burning brazier at the gate of the Mohist house. With the help of Liu e, they stepped over.


    "Shoot arrows and pray for blessings!" Fu Bo shouted again.


    Merton took a bow and arrow from Tie''an on the side, took out three prunes wrapped in red silk instead of arrows, and fired three arrows behind Changle to dispel the bad luck of the bride along the way.


    "Across the saddle, the whole family is safe!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the shouts of Fubo, Princess Changle and Merton followed one by one. These rituals seem cumbersome, but they represent the idea of avoiding evil and looking forward to peace. Merton and Merton were not impatient at all.


    After finishing this set of cumbersome etiquette, they were relieved. At present, they can pay homage only when the auspicious hour has arrived.


    Suddenly, a notice came from outside the Mo house, which stopped them.


    "Duke Cheng of the state of Lu sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    Many guests could not help nodding. Duke Lu Cheng knew that Jie and Mo''s house had always been close, and it was right to come to congratulate him. Moreover, Duke Lu was a gift of the Duke of the state. Merton and Merton naturally had to wait here, so it was not rude.


    Just after the announcement, two more announcements came.


    "Yuchi Jingde, Duke of the state of Hubei, sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    "Qin Qiong, the Duke of the Yi Kingdom, sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All of a sudden, three national princes sent congratulatory stickers at the same time, which made the marriage a little more grand.


    However, this is not over yet. Another announcement came.


    "Duke Zhao''s eldest son Wuji sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    "Gao Shilian, Duke of the state of Shen, sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As the announcement came, the congratulatory stickers of the founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty were presented, which made many people in an uproar. Even some government officials who had little contact with Merton also presented congratulatory stickers one after another. After all, Changle is the long princess. Even if they don''t like Merton, they have to give the royal face.


    "Thank you, thank you!"


    Today is Merton''s big day. No matter who comes, Merton naturally welcomes him and bows down to thank him again and again.


    Some of the maids accompanying Princess Changle''s dowry involuntarily raised their heads and looked proudly at the Mohist children around them. They believed that these Duke''s greeting stickers must have come for their princess, and a feeling of superiority rose in their hearts.


    However, without waiting for them to be proud for too long, another notice came.


    "The ancestral family of the first line of mathematics sent a congratulatory note! Congratulations to Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    "It''s the ancestral family of mathematics. Could it be that their ancestors were the ancestors of the family?" a guest said in surprise.


    "I think so. You know, Merton is in charge of the Mohist School and one of the hundred schools of thought. It''s reasonable for the ancestral family to come to congratulate." someone nodded.


    Among the best men, Qin Huaiyu looked at Zu Mingjun and said, "there are people from Zu''s family."


    Zu Mingjun nodded and said, "Merton proposed that the Zu family and Mr. Li jointly implement compulsory education. This is an opportunity for the great prosperity of mathematics. The Zu family naturally remembers this great kindness. When they heard that Merton was about to get married, they sent an elder to congratulate them."


    "The ancestral family has a heart." Qin Huaiyu nodded.


    Zu Mingjun shook his head and said, "among the hundreds of schools, the Zu family is not the only one who has received the favor of the Mohist school. It must be that the Zu family is not the only one who has come."


    Sure enough, the voice of Zu Mingjun didn''t fall, and another notice came.


    "Doctor Sun Simiao arrived and congratulated Marquis Mo on his wedding to Princess Changle."


    "The king of medicine is coming!" suddenly many people couldn''t help but move in their hearts. The name of Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, is like thunder. In Chang''an City, you can offend anyone, but don''t offend Sun Simiao, because you may beg in front of Sun Simiao at any time.


    "Merton''s wedding, how can I not come." Sun Simiao came in. Now there are two doctors, one is Sun Simiao and the other is Huayuan. One is good at internal medicine and the other is good at surgery, which makes the doctors brilliant again.


    However, Hua Yuan can say that Merton''s family will not send congratulatory stickers on a large scale, so the doctors can only be Sun Simiao''s disciples, and Princess Changle is also Sun Simiao''s nominal apprentice.


    "In the future, you and others must love each other and have a good marriage for a hundred years." Sun Simiao admonished.


    "Thank you, old sun." Merton and Princess Changle bowed and thanked. They didn''t expect Sun Simiao to come in person.


    "Li Chun, a Taoist, congratulates Marquis Mo on his wedding to Princess Changle."


    With a notice, Li Chunfeng in a Taoist robe appeared in front of the crowd, which immediately caused an uproar.


    "Taoism is coming too!" the people couldn''t believe it.


    "The legalist Han Zheng arrives and congratulates Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    "Historian Yan shigu arrives and congratulates mohou and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One by one, the congratulatory stickers of various schools of thought were sent to the people, which surprised them one after another. The serious arrogance of the maids who had been married by Princess Changle gradually disappeared. Although the dignitaries of the court respected their status, the weight of all schools of thought was not light. Even if the founding heroes sent congratulatory gifts in the face of Princess Changle, all schools of thought also came for Merton.


    "The Mohist dengling family sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    "The Mohist Xiangfu sent a congratulatory note to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    Two announcements came in a row, which made everyone stunned. You know, after the emergence of Mohist school, Mohist son and Mohist village, the other two veins were very unconvinced. They didn''t expect to send a congratulatory note now.


    In fact, it is not difficult to understand that although the other two veins are not convinced of Merton, after all, Merton directly expanded the influence of Mohism to several times, and his contribution to Mohism is obvious to all. Even if the other two veins are biased, they have to admit this fact.


    However, it is not over yet. With the last announcement, the atmosphere of Merton''s wedding has been pushed to the hottest,


    "The Confucianists sent congratulatory stickers to congratulate Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on their wedding."


    "The Confucianists are coming too!" they couldn''t believe their ears. In this way, all the schools of thought can be said to be present for Merton''s wedding.


    Everyone could not help but smack their tongue. Merton married Princess Changle. Not only did the princes of the hall send congratulatory stickers, but also all the families congratulated one after another. Such a grand show could be said to be unprecedented and no one came later.


    "I''m afraid this is the most grand wedding ever." the feeling of pride rose in the hearts of all the people.


    Perfect love, lovers get married, dignitaries'' congratulations and hundreds of blessings, I''m afraid no one can gather so much glory.

 Chapter 750

    "Congratulations, brother Mo!"


    Kong huisuo arched his hand. He was the representative of Confucianism and congratulated Merton.


    "You''re welcome, brother Kong. Please forgive me if you''re not well served." Merton saluted.


    Kong huisuo was not polite, but walked directly to Qin Huaiyu.


    "I thought you weren''t coming?" Qin Huaiyu said discontentedly.


    Kong huisuo smiled bitterly and said, "brother Mo is married. How can I not be there."


    Confucianists and Mohists are all schools of thought. Although there are always contradictions between the two schools, there are naturally not few etiquette on the surface. None of the Confucianists is willing to come, so they only send Kong huisuo to the scene.


    "The auspicious hour has arrived!"


    With fuber''s loud drink, there was a sudden silence. Everyone knew that the grand wedding had finally reached the most critical moment and married.


    At the moment, the lobby had already made room, leaving only Merton and Princess Changle. Merton took Princess Changle''s hand. In the middle of the lobby, everyone immediately focused on them.


    "Next, let''s invite Sun Simiao, the physician, and Han Zheng, the marriage witness." Fu Bo said loudly.


    "The chief marriage witness?" many guests were stunned.


    This has never appeared in the wedding ceremony in the Tang Dynasty, but it does not hinder people''s understanding. The person in charge of the wedding is the person who presides over the wedding, and the witness is the person who holds the marriage certificate for the married men and women. Moreover, Sun Simiao is a doctor and Han Zheng is a legalist. Their status is extremely respected and respected. It is not impolite to preside over the witness, Merton and Princess Changle.


    "I''m used to many weddings. It''s my first time to attend a Mohist wedding. It seems to have a lot of new ideas." many guests were surprised and watched it with great interest.


    Sun Simiao and Han Zheng came to the stage together and bowed around.


    Han Zheng said loudly, "my husband Han Zheng, entrusted by the man, is the witness of this wedding. This is the marriage certificate of Merton and Princess Changle. However, you all know that the new household marriage law has added the principle of mutual voluntariness, which was promoted by the groom in front of you."


    Suddenly, many people burst into good-natured laughter. After all, what happened at that time was well known all over the city, and everyone naturally knew it.


    Han Zheng solemnly said, "in that case, I''ll ask myself for you. Bridegroom Merton, are you willing to marry the woman in front of you? Love her and be loyal to her, whether she is poor, sick or disabled, until she dies."


    When Han Zheng finished, everyone immediately became silent. Asking each other like this was no less than making an oath. If they violated the promise, they would be accused by their relatives and friends, and let the husband and wife personally admit whether they were willing or not, naturally, they nodded secretly at the things they were not willing to do, and they couldn''t help being more solemn about the wedding.


    "I will!" Merton said without hesitation.


    "Good!"


    Suddenly everyone cheered.


    In fact, it is reasonable to say that Merton advocates Chinese wedding and does not intend to add such vows to future generations. However, when he finds that even if the household marriage law has changed, the freedom of marriage in Datang is still very low and low. He has no choice but to add the link of public oath. After this promotion, he will certainly be able to greatly promote the principle of mutual voluntariness.


    "Bride Li Lizhi, will you marry this man? Love him and be loyal to him, whether he is poor, ill or disabled, until he dies." Han Zheng looked at Princess Changle again and asked.


    "I will!" Princess Changle''s firm voice came from under the red cover.


    "Oh!" suddenly the cheers of the guests resounded through the ink house.


    Han Zheng nodded and said, "the wedding of the bride and groom has the order of their parents and the words of the matchmaker. Both parties voluntarily marry. Here I declare that the wedding of Merton and Li Lizhi is in line with the marriage law of the Tang family and the marriage is legal. I wish the two newlyweds a happy marriage for a hundred years."


    Suddenly, the whole audience applauded. The wedding gave them too many surprises.


    Han Zheng bowed down, but he couldn''t calm down for a long time. He couldn''t help thinking of Merton''s theory that people''s daily use is the Tao. Merton''s wedding asked him to be a witness to prove that their marriage was legal. Isn''t this the use of people''s daily use is the Tao!


    After Han Zheng retired, Sun Simiao walked onto the stage and said in a loud voice, "my husband Sun Simiao has seen all the guests. Today is the day when Merton and Changle Princess Li Lizhi conclude their Centennial marriage. I am entrusted by the bridegroom to preside over the wedding. First of all, I congratulate the two newlyweds on their Centennial marriage and extend a warm welcome to you."


    Sun Simiao has already lived a long time. Naturally, he has seen too many weddings. In a few words, the atmosphere of the whole audience is extremely hot.


    "Finally, let''s bless the couple again. I declare that the worship hall officially begins." Sun Simiao said in a loud voice.


    Princess Changle was so nervous that she couldn''t help pulling Merton.


    Merton whispered, "just do what I do later."


    Princess Changle nodded reassuringly. The tension in her heart eased slightly, but she was still nervous. Before marriage, she made up a lot of wedding processes to avoid panic. However, all her preparations failed. It was very different from today''s wedding, which made her a little at a loss.


    Seeing the two newcomers standing still, Sun Simiao took a deep breath: "worship heaven and earth!"


    "Worship heaven and earth?" people were stunned. This is an unprecedented saying. Before that, couples married with each other and never worship heaven and earth.


    "Is it the unique etiquette of Mohism?" people wondered, but in this era, heaven and earth are extremely mysterious. Worshipping heaven and earth does not make people feel inappropriate, but brighten their eyes.


    Sun Simiao could not help sighing in his heart. When he first saw the process of marriage, he couldn''t help being amazed by the process of worshipping heaven and earth!


    Merton and Princess Changle solemnly bowed down. This worship was proved by heaven and earth, and they became husband and wife from then on.


    "Worship the high hall!" Sun Simiao shouted again.


    Although Merton''s parents died early, the memorial tablets of Merlot and his wife were placed in the center of the lobby.


    Merton and his wife bowed down again.


    "Husband and wife worship each other!" Sun Simiao drank again.


    They nodded slightly. In this era, most weddings are husband and wife worship. However, the Mohist wedding adds one worship of heaven and earth and two worship of the high hall. It is a stroke of God, and it is even more grand out of thin air.


    Merton and Princess Changle turned face to face, and they bowed down at the same time. This worship will lead to a lifelong friendship between husband and wife.


    "Li Cheng! Send it to the bridal chamber!"


    Sun Simiao said solemnly, and suddenly the whole audience cheered.


    As Merton led Princess Changle into the new house carefully prepared for Princess Changle, the whole Merton house banquet opened, with exquisite food, rare off-season vegetables on the market, crystal with high value on the market to solve thousands of worries, and everything at Merton''s wedding banquet.


    Everyone is tasting delicious food, and every topic in their mouth is inseparable from this refreshing wedding. There are too many changes in Merton''s wedding, but each change makes people enjoy it,


    The sedan chair and carriage to greet the bride get rid of the disadvantages of too slow speed and blackmail by the sedan bearer; Worship heaven and earth, let heaven and earth as evidence, more grand; The wedding vows that the newlyweds will help each other and spend their lives together. They have really achieved the willingness of both sides. I believe that soon this wedding model will be promoted in Datang, and the wedding customs of the whole Datang will be changed.

 Chapter 751

    "Thank you, Mr. Sun. Mr. Han is the younger generation''s wedding master! I''ll give you a toast." Merton solemnly said at the main table.


    After Merton sent Princess Changle back to her new house, she was immediately rejected and had to come out to entertain the guests. Moreover, many heavyweight guests came today, which needed his reception.


    The main table where Merton is located is the people of all schools of thought. Naturally, we should respect this table first. Merton picked up his glass and Qin Huaiyu behind him raised his glass to Sun Simiao.


    Sun Simiao and Han Zheng raised their glasses and took a sip. They were very old. They could have a taste. Naturally, no one advised them.


    Merton drank it up, then raised his glass to Yan shigu and said, "thank you for coming in your busy schedule."


    Yan shigu raised his glass and said, "the wedding of mohou is an eye opener for me. I have just recorded the details of the wedding. Today''s wedding will be remembered in history."


    "Lord Yan flattered me." Merton said modestly.


    Yan shigu drank it up and said, "mohou''s new marriage has eliminated so many disadvantages of the old marriage. I''m afraid the marriage atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty will change in the future. It must be a custom that people will follow and spread to future generations."


    Other people also nodded one after another. Anyone can see that Merton''s wedding is more grand and has a stronger sense of ceremony. If his children get married in the future, they must adopt this way.


    Merton toasted the other guests at the main table before he came to the other guests.


    "Congratulations on the wedding of marquis Mo!" the Qian family leader congratulated one after another. He is a partner of Mojia village. When he heard of Merton''s wedding, he took the initiative to come. Merton naturally welcomed him, but did not accept the heavy gift.


    "Thank you, Mr. Qian!" Merton raised his glass and took a sip.


    After leaving the main table, Merton naturally just tasted it, and the real task of accompanying the wine was to give it to the best man Qin Huaiyu behind.


    With young and strong Qin Huaiyu, even with a table, he could not withstand the whole process. With the high degree of crystal solution, he had already reached the degree of Baijiu liquor in the future.


    It was not easy to finish the toast task. Qin Huaiyu fell into the guest room. Then he knew later and said, "did I fall into Merton''s plan? He must want me to get drunk and can''t make the wedding at night."


    "It must be!" Chumo nods angrily.


    "Brother Mo, it''s not authentic. You should use tricks for your brother!" Zu Mingjun accused.


    Everyone woke up a little late and had to sleep helplessly.


    The banquet lasted until very late, until the cups and dishes were in a mess, the guests were happy and left one after another, and now the night had come quietly.


    Although Merton made a small plan, he still drank a lot and came to the new house slightly drunk.


    "See the son-in-law!"


    At the moment, the three storey new house had long been occupied by the palace maids brought by Princess Changle. Seeing Merton coming in, I couldn''t help bowing and saluting.


    Merton waved slightly, went directly into the new house, went straight to the master bedroom, pushed open the door, and saw that in the master bedroom, a bride wearing a phoenix crown and a glow in the reflection of red candles immediately attracted Merton''s attention.


    "Son in law!"


    Liu e, who has been serving Princess Changle, bowed.


    When Princess Changle heard the speech, she suddenly moved. She couldn''t help looking up at Merton at the door. Some private words taught by Gong e to her before she got married suddenly poured into her heart, and her heart couldn''t help being ashamed.


    When Merton saw this, he immediately felt drunk. He went into his new house and went to Changle, who was dressed in wedding clothes. He picked up yuruyi and gently picked it up, revealing a delicate face.


    Even if Merton had seen the face of Princess Changle, he couldn''t help but be amazed at it at the moment.


    "Please also invite the emperor''s son-in-law and the princess to make a wedding ceremony." Liu e reminded Merton that Merton was a little sober.


    The ceremony of Heying is to make a cup of wine. It originally meant that a bottle was divided into two ladles. The ancient saying "Heying and Ying" extended to marriage. Only after drinking Jiaoying wine can it be regarded as a real ceremony, and you can enter the bridal chamber and become a real husband and wife.


    The maid in waiting on one side had already brought out the Heying wine prepared in advance. Merton and Princess Changle got up, picked up the wine cup, held hands and took a sip first.


    Then let each other have a drink, indicating that you have me and I have you. Finally, the two exchanged wine glasses and drank them all at once. So far, the wedding ceremony was officially completed.


    At the moment, Liu E and other palace maids have quietly withdrawn from the new house, leaving only two newcomers in the house.


    Princess Changle drank for the first time. After drinking a cup of wine, a red cloud appeared on her face, adding a third of her beauty out of thin air.


    "Lady!" Merton said passionately.


    "Xianggong!" Princess Changle looked up and replied with shame.


    "It''s getting late, let''s have a rest!" Merton came forward and quietly took Princess Changle''s jade hand.


    Suddenly, Princess Changle''s body became stiff. Merton led her to the new bed and immediately put down the red curtain.


    "Wait a minute!" said Princess Changle shyly. She felt a picture album under her pillow. Merton couldn''t help looking at it curiously. He saw that the picture album was a picture of the spring * * palace. It all depended on the promotion of Merton''s sketch. The painters in the palace painted it vividly. The men and women in the picture album almost had expressions.


    "You don''t need these. Your husband has long remembered them." after the adjustment of the storage capacity of a hard disk in later generations, Merton won''t see these primitive enlightenment education.


    In a hurry, Merton rushed up and suddenly felt that there was a foreign body on the bed. He couldn''t help feeling curiously: "what''s this?"


    Soon, peanuts, red dates,...... and other miscellaneous things that Merton didn''t know took out a small pile.


    Merton can''t help being depressed. Has the meaning of giving birth to a noble son been popularized even in the Tang Dynasty? However, this is just some difficulties Merton has encountered. The real difficulties are still the Phoenix crown and glow of Changle.


    "Why is it so difficult to understand!"


    "What kind of button is this?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton never knew that the Phoenix crown was hard to solve. He was sweating hard before he started. With the shy and timid cooperation of Princess Changle, Merton finally untied the Phoenix crown.


    Merton breathed a heavy sigh of relief. Looking at the shy Changle, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "among the makeup poems, I only made three sentences for my husband, and then there''s another paragraph. Do you want to hear it?"


    Changle, the bride of literature and art, couldn''t help but be surprised and said, "seriously?"


    Merton nodded and said casually, "it''s time to take a bath in Huaqing pool in the spring cold, and the hot spring water is slippery to wash the curd. The waiter is powerless to help Jiao, and it''s time for a new grace."


    "Ah!"


    Changle naturally understood the meaning of the poem. He was ashamed and suddenly buried his head in the quilt.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, the curtain fell to cover up their figure. It was night. The red curtain fluctuated like the surging spring tide, the warbler crowed and the swallow whispered, and the ears and temples rubbed together, high or low, just like a melodious and wonderful thing.

 Chapter 752

    In the new house, they are spending the wedding night. Naturally, the sweetness is not external. However, it hurts the people listening to the wall outside the window.


    "Third floor!"


    Outside the new house, Qin Huaiyu looked at the three storey high building and wanted to cry without tears. Ordinary houses are on the first floor, which is the custom of listening to the root of the wall.


    However, Merton''s new house is three stories high, and there is no place to climb next to it, which makes everyone eager to see, but there is no way.


    "Do you think Merton got everything when he built this house?" Zu Mingjun said helplessly.


    The house in front of us is a reinforced concrete structure. In addition to being high, it is also equipped with double-layer glass. The sound insulation effect is also lever. It is not like ordinary window paper windows. Even standing under the wall, I''m afraid they can''t hear any sound at all.


    "Shall we climb up the tree?" Wei Chi Baolin thought.


    Chumo looks at him with a fool''s eye, points around and says, "look at the three storey trees around us that can support us."


    When Wei Chi baolinton was sad, the farthest tree was ten meters away. Even if they climbed up, what could they hear?


    The crowd was suddenly dejected. They were drunk by Merton. They had missed the link of making a wedding, but they didn''t expect that even the opportunity to eavesdrop on the corner of the wall was blocked.


    "OK, Merton, you''re cruel. Let''s go!" Qin Huaiyu turned a few times, but he had no chance, so he had to give up bitterly.


    Merton didn''t know Qin Huaiyu''s sad experience. She smelled nephrite one night and was happy beyond words. It was not until the sun rose in the east the next day and the transparent glass shone in the bedroom on the third floor that they woke up.


    "Ah! It''s so late!" Changle suddenly panicked.


    Merton looked at the sun, shook his head and said, "the sun has just risen. It''s still early?"


    Princess Changle looked at Merton angrily and said, "it''s still early. I''m afraid all the officials of the court will go to the morning court long ago. If you get up so late in the future, you won''t be blamed by your father and Emperor.


    Merton said with a smile, "in fact, I haven''t finished my poem last night. Do you want to hear some more?"


    "Not finished yet?" Princess Changle suddenly understood the poem of last night. A touch of red clouds rose involuntarily, but she didn''t refuse.


    "The cloud temples and flowers are golden, and the hibiscus tent is warm to spend the spring night. The spring night is bitter, and the day rises high. From then on, the husband doesn''t arrive early." Merton recited loudly. He pulled Princess Changle into his arms, reached out his hand to take down the golden step shake she had inserted and held it to the bed.


    Princess Changle tried her best to escape Merton''s clutches and said firmly, "that''s no good. If you don''t go early from now on, let all officials how to treat my body."


    Merton laughed and said, "don''t worry! My husband has asked his majesty for a month''s leave. We''re going to spend a honeymoon together."


    "Honeymoon?" Princess Changle didn''t understand.


    "I''m waiting for my newlyweds to have a wedding leave. We just take this opportunity to go around together. That''s the origin of honeymoon," Merton explained.


    "But what about your official business?" although Princess Changle was excited, she hesitated. If Merton delayed the government because of accompanying her, I''m afraid she would be impeached by the censor.


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, I''ve arranged everything!"


    Now there is no war, there is no major event in firearms supervision, and the scale of gunpowder production continues to shrink. Merton only needs Xue Rengui to strictly investigate the hidden dangers of gunpowder, and Merton does not need to personally supervise. Merton just takes this opportunity to have a rest.


    The two were gentle, and then they got up reluctantly. Looking at the bright light outside, Princess Changle was ashamed. Fortunately, there was no mother-in-law to serve tea, otherwise she would be laughed at.


    Merton''s wedding has passed, and a young couple is about to start a new life. However, the aftermath of the wedding is not calm. However, after a night of fermentation, the grand occasion of Merton''s wedding with Princess Changle soon spread all over Chang''an city.


    More and more people are talking about the brand-new way to greet the bride and the brand-new wedding process. I''m afraid the most sad one is the groom who married Merton on the same day, which has been directly crushed in both aspects.


    Although some stubborn Confucian scholars were extremely dissatisfied with Merton''s unauthorized modification of the wedding ceremony, when they took the wedding process and studied it thoroughly, they found that they couldn''t pick out any mistakes at all. Instead, they were much better than the previous wedding ceremony, so they had to give up angrily.


    Merton''s wedding ceremony is not only popular among the people, but also naturally spread to the palace. When their daughter got married, they naturally paid more attention. As early as the wedding was over, news spread to the palace.


    "The Mohist wedding is unique!" empress Chang sun nodded when she heard the report from the palace maid.


    Li Shimin couldn''t deny it and said, "in my opinion, it must be Merton who made the change without authorization. Now the imperial historian in the court has sent the memorial to me."


    Naturally, these censors will not destroy the wedding of Princess Changle, but directly point the spearhead at Merton and change the wedding without authorization, which is not in line with secular etiquette. Of course, there are also people who support Merton. In the early Dynasty, there was a fierce debate in the court hall.


    "From my concubine''s point of view, these newly added wedding rituals are very necessary. It seems that both parties are more sincere and more conducive to the harmony between husband and wife." empress Chang sun solemnly said.


    As a woman, she naturally looks forward to a perfect wedding. In her opinion, such a wedding is simply a dream, especially the wedding oath, which is the greatest wish of every woman.


    Now such a wedding appears at her daughter''s wedding. How can she not be happy for it.


    Li Shimin nodded. In the debate among the officials in the hall, he did not accuse Merton of his wedding, but more of Merton''s unauthorized modification. Moreover, he naturally knew that Merton prepared the wedding oath for the voluntary part of both sides, which can be said to be the pen of God.


    If it is promoted in the future, the tragedy of the Hu women''s case will certainly not appear. If the bride is forced, she just needs to refuse in public and will not go to extremes.


    "In my opinion, Merton also sincerely treats Changle. You can''t treat him like before. Be nice to him. After all, he is also the son-in-law of Changle!" empress changsun reminded.


    But she knew that since Li Shimin discovered Merton''s relationship with Princess Changle, he seemed to see his beloved baby stolen little by little. She had been indignant for a long time. She didn''t know how many times he had cheated Merton, and even her mother-in-law couldn''t see it anymore.


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he suddenly snorted coldly and said, "be nice to him. In my opinion, the boy didn''t pay attention to me at all. He just married Changle and handed over the memorial of asking for leave the next day."


    Li Shimin said angrily, picked up a memorial and put it in front of empress Chang sun.


    "Honeymoon!" empress Chang sun looked at Merton''s reason for asking for leave. Her eyes brightened. The honeymoon appeared in the Tang Dynasty for the first time, but it did not hinder empress Chang sun''s understanding. For women, it was a big temptation. Seeing that Merton was so attentive to her daughter, the eldest grandson nodded with satisfaction.,


    Although Li Shimin was very dissatisfied with Merton''s boldness and laziness, but Merton had the support of his mother-in-law and Princess Changle. Li Shimin had no choice but to hold his nose and press the seal on the memorial, agreeing to this unreasonable request that had never appeared in the court hall.


    Merton and Princess Changle became the ancestors of honeymoon and were regarded as classics by newlyweds in later generations. Some people went to honeymoon after they got married in the future. They all appreciated Merton''s contribution.

 Chapter 753

    Three days after returning home, Princess Changle said goodbye to her parents and started their honeymoon with Merton.


    Of course, the first stop is the beautiful scenery. Mojia village, a new tourist attraction in Chang''an City, is the hometown of Merton. You have to come back in love and reason, not to mention how you can miss the beautiful construction of Mojia village.


    Since the completion of the Mojia village, Princess Changle has never been here at all because she avoided suspicion. She can only imagine the grand occasion of the Mojia village through the word of mouth of Li Chengqian''s brother and sister. However, when she first saw the Mojia village, like everyone else, she couldn''t help but be shocked.


    Especially after the Spring Festival, everything recovers, and the whole Mojia village is beautiful with birds, flowers and trees. With sharp scissors, the Mohist children cut off the disorderly branches and leaves on both sides of the road to form exquisite patterns.


    Or round, or square, the sun, moon and stars are arranged in trees, flowers and plants. Even when the Mojia village designs greening, these trees can be arranged according to the font. Before winter, it was not obvious. Now everything is recovering. After these trees send out new leaves, rows of welcome signs are even more amazing. The whole Mojia village is like a work of art.


    "It deserves to be the first village in the world."


    Princess Changle looked at the unique layout of the mojiazi and sighed that although she had been in the palace for a long time and was used to the grand scenery in the palace, no matter how exquisite the scenery in the palace was, it was inevitable that it was deliberately and desolate.


    Mojia village is not. It is full of life and full of vitality everywhere. Not only the arrival of Princess Changle, but also the people of Chang''an city are attracted by it. Tourists are weaving. Mojia village has directly become the first choice for spring outing of Chang''an city people. For a moment, the flow of people to Mojia village has increased greatly, and everyone comes to Mojia village to praise it.


    All this was naturally attributed to Merton, her husband. In an instant, Princess Changle looked at Merton with more admiration.


    Merton proudly said, "today''s Mojia village is just a grass-roots creation. Before long, the idea of being a husband will be realized again. At that time, Mojia village will be several times better than at the moment."


    Princess Changle naturally has unconditional trust in Merton''s words, and in her opinion, merjia village has vitality and potential that Chang''an city does not have, which makes her feel refreshing.


    "See you, young master!"


    "See you, madam!"


    Since Merton returned to the village, he would naturally go to the residential area of Mojia village. As soon as he entered the village, he met very enthusiastic villagers.


    Princess Changle heard that a group of villagers called her not a princess but a wife, which showed that these villagers really regarded her as a Mohist, and couldn''t help smiling knowingly. Moreover, from the greetings of these villagers, she could clearly feel the villagers'' love for Merton.


    "What a group of simple villagers," said Princess Changle.


    Anyone who thinks that these villagers have created such a miracle as Mojia village in a short time will admire them from the heart.


    Merton nodded and said, "the world knows that it is my credit that Mojia village can have today, but I don''t know that without the support of these villagers, my strength is limited! In my opinion, the real credit of Mojia village is these silently dedicated villagers."


    Princess Changle nodded in agreement, quickly put down her figure and warmly greeted the villagers, which immediately flattered many villagers, but soon eliminated the mustard and melted into one.


    The two men shabby in dress for a long time before they waved goodbye to the enthusiastic villagers. When they first came out of the residential area, they saw a few ragged strangers waiting for the roadside, and saw the princess of Changle coming out. They hurriedly stepped forward and bowed themselves in salute, "the villain is on the royal highness of the princess."


    "Are you?" Princess Changle said suddenly.


    Li Yi, who was accompanying him, explained quickly: "back to your highness, these are the village heads of the neighboring villages, and also the villages of the princess''s Royal Highland."


    He often deals with the surrounding villages. Naturally, he knows the village heads of these villages. He heard that Princess Changle returned to Mojia village today, and these village heads naturally came as soon as possible.


    Princess Changle suddenly realized that she naturally knew that her fief had been moved to the side of Mojia village, but she understood that these fiefs were her dowry and would be merged with Mojia village in the future. She couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    Merton naturally knows the origin of these villages. Now, Mojia village is the richest village in the world. However, these villages are close to Mojia village. Although they can do some odd jobs to subsidize their families, they are still very different from Mojia village.


    Now their village has become a fief of Princess Changle, and Princess Changle is married to mojiazi. Since they are both Princess Changle and the Merton family, can their village grow smoothly into Mojia village.


    However, after they came to Li Yi for many times, it was a pity that Li Yi had already discussed with Merton. It was impossible to integrate them into the Mohist village at once, so they had to avoid talking all the time.


    As a last resort, they came here and took the initiative to see Princess Changle. They also deliberately wore shabby clothes in an attempt to get Princess Changle''s sympathy.


    Merton saw Princess Changle''s eyes, nodded and said, "since you have come back today, you might as well go to your fief to have a look!"


    "Hmm!" Princess Changle nodded obediently.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" the village chiefs were overjoyed. They naturally know that it is Merton who really depends on their village to become rich.


    Several village heads eagerly led the way in front. As soon as they left the scope of Mojia village, they saw that many roads were filled with red bricks. The original road to each village had been leveled. As long as the red bricks were paved, it would be a straight Avenue.


    Merton explained, "as early as your majesty announced the change of your fief, Mojia village has prepared to build roads to all villages so that you can inspect the fief."


    When Princess Changle saw that Merton was ready, she obviously kept her things in mind, which showed that Merton had always had her in her heart and couldn''t help smiling sweetly.


    "If you want to be rich, build roads first. This is the famous saying of mohou. According to the villain, once these brick roads are completed, it must be the day when several villages like us rise." the village head of Guojia village on the side quickly boasted.


    Since the rise of Mojia village, everyone knows the importance of brick roads. The benefits of building brick roads in Mojia village to each village are naturally obvious. However, what each village wants is not a brick road, but more.


    In order to welcome Princess Changle, the villages have already paved the road in the village, and the carriage traveled smoothly all the way to Guojia village.


    "This is my fief!" Princess Changle looked at the dilapidated Guojiazhuang in front of her and said dumbfounded.


    Although Guojiazhuang is close to Mojia village, the villagers can work in Mojia village and subsidize their families. After all, it has been poor for a long time. Except for a few villagers who are brick houses, most of the others are dilapidated soil embryo houses, which is a world away from the Mojia village just now.


    The village head of Guojia village said with a bitter smile: "if you go back to the princess, although Guojia village is dilapidated, the villagers are simple, down-to-earth and capable. Our village is unlucky. There is no such a hero as mohou. Fortunately, God has blessed our village with luck and become the fief of the princess. I hope mohou will take care of it in the future."


    "That''s right! It''s a perfect match for mohou to marry the princess. Our village and mohjia village live next to each other. Naturally, it won''t tarnish the princess."


    Other village heads said one after another.


    Princess Changle controls the Red Cross Society. Naturally, she is not a girl who doesn''t rhyme with the world. Naturally, she can hear the meaning of several village chiefs who want to merge into the Mohist village, and can''t help looking at Merton aside.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "the rise of Mojia village is not just a handful. It is only a temporary false prosperity by simply relying on external forces. Even if you are rich in a short time, you can''t be rich for a long time. I don''t know whether you want to be rich for a while or for a long time."


    Village head Guo looked at each other and said solemnly, "please give me some advice."


    Merton said, "if any village wants to be rich, it must have several conditions. The first is transportation. If it wants to be rich, it must build roads first. If any village or even any city wants to be rich, it must have convenient transportation. Luoyang, Chang''an, Yangzhou and Yizhou... Which one is not accessible in all directions. Once the brick road is built, you and other villages already have the prerequisites for becoming rich."


    The village chiefs could not help nodding. They naturally agreed with Merton''s words.


    However, Merton''s words turned: "convenient transportation is just an external cause. Whether they are really rich or not depends on the villages themselves."


    "Rely on ourselves!" the village heads suddenly sank in their hearts. Naturally, they heard Merton''s meaning and were not ready to merge them directly into the Mojia village.


    Merton solemnly said: "if any village wants to be rich, there is another important factor, in addition to the unity of the villagers, steadfast and willing to work and bear hardships, that is education."


    "Education?" the villages looked at each other.


    Merton nodded: "benhou and the princess have discussed to build schools between villages. In each village, all school-age children aged 6 to 12 must receive compulsory education."


    "All school-age children!" the village heads frowned. They are no better than Mojia village. In ordinary villages, these children are all labor. They usually work at home and do housework. If they all go to school, I''m afraid many people will not.


    Merton nodded firmly: "of course, these children go to school free of charge. This is an opportunity for the villagers to change their fate. I believe they will make the right choice."


    A group of villages clenched their teeth and said, "don''t worry, Mo Hou. We will certainly convince the villagers."


    Merton showed a satisfied smile. If these villagers are willing to be poor, there is no need for merjia village to spend more effort on them.


    "Of course, you and others are the fiefs of Changle. Mojia village will naturally tilt to you. In the future, the villagers of each village can give priority to entering the workshops of Mojia village. All villagers enjoy the treatment of Mojia workers and the half price discount of seeing a doctor in Mojia hospital." Merton threw out a sweet jujube again.


    "Thank you, mohou!" the villages are very happy. They have jobs and preferential treatment for doctors, which is the most affordable for them.


    "In addition, all villages should also rely on themselves. There will be special Mohist children in Mohist village to help you raise poultry, plant fruit trees and graft improved varieties. We are not far from Chang''an city. As long as the villagers are practical and willing to work, they will certainly make a lot of profits. The original Mohist village came step by step." Merton continued to give advice.


    The village heads nodded again and again. Everyone knew that the original Mojia village was selling live fish. Today, he just goes back to the old way of Mojia village!


    When Princess Changle saw that Merton had made proper arrangements, she said, "you were first granted a fief for the palace. Naturally, the palace will not treat you badly. You will be exempted from food cities within three years. I hope you will live up to the expectations of the palace."


    A group of villages were overjoyed and said, "don''t worry, princess. We will let the princess see a new fief in three years."


    Merton said with a smile, "at that time, Mojia village welcomes excellent children from all villages to join."


    Hearing the conditions for Merton to join the Mojia village, the village leaders were not disappointed. Now with so many good conditions, if their villages can''t get rich again, I''m afraid they will never have the face to ask for integration into the Mojia village.


    Next, Merton and Princess Changle visited the villages continuously to visit the destitute families in the village. The accompanying Mohist children immediately sent daily necessities such as food and clothing in public. Some seriously ill villagers were immediately sent to the hospital of Mohist village for free treatment.


    For a moment, there were endless voices of gratitude among the villages. The resentment that they had failed to join the Mohist village was swept away. Instead, they were ready to work hard one by one.


    "In a few years, this must be the second Mojia village." Merton walked out of the last village and watched a group of villagers level the roads and repair the houses under the leadership of the village head, as if he had returned to the passion of the initial construction of Mojia village.


    "Giving people fish is better than giving people fish. My husband is really wise!" Princess Changle naturally knew the demands of each village. However, Merton''s words aroused the enthusiasm of each village, which not only avoided the problem of bringing down the Mojia village, but also made the villages grateful.


    Merton shook his head and said, "help the poor first. If these villages don''t make up their minds first, no matter how much support we have, it''s useless."


    Princess Changle nodded thoughtfully, turned her head and looked far away. She could still hear the booming voice. She believed that over time, these villages would be as rich as Mojia village.


    Merton said knowingly, "you can rest assured. With the Mohist village, it will be done properly. Now we''d better continue our honeymoon!"


    Princess Changle finally walked freely. She no longer had to be bound by the palace. Hearing the speech, she said excitedly, "where are we going to spend our honeymoon."


    Merton smiled proudly and solemnly said to the East, "Luoyang."


    They have always lived in Chang''an City and are naturally very familiar with the surrounding conditions. Luoyang is a place they have never been to, and its beauty and majesty are not inferior to Chang''an city. Naturally, it is the best place for honeymoon.

 Chapter 754

    "Drive!"


    A motorcade sped by on the brick road to Luoyang. On the central carriage, Princess Changle looked out of the window at the trees on both sides of the river, looking forward to it.


    "Luoyang!"


    Princess Changle couldn''t help thinking that she had never been to Luoyang. As a princess, she doesn''t have much chance to leave the palace at ordinary times. Merton''s honeymoon trip can be said to be the biggest surprise for her. The carriage gallops all the way. Princess Changle''s mood is as happy as a bird out of the cage, and she can''t help snuggling in Merton''s arms.


    Merton hugged her waist and said with a smile, "this is a good time to visit Luoyang. I heard that the peonies in Luoyang are the best in the world. Now it''s the viewing season. We can just see the grand event."


    "It must be very spectacular," Princess Changle expected.


    Merton nodded solemnly.


    "However, the peonies in Luoyang are beautiful, but there are many beautiful scenery along the brick road, which we can''t miss." Merton Lang said. Since you come out to play, how can you have fun? There are many scenic spots along the way, of course, Huashan is the most.


    "Mountaineering!"


    Princess Changle could not help but be in high spirits. Huashan is not too far from Chang''an city. Princess Changle naturally knows the reputation of the West Yue Huashan. Hearing that she wants to climb Huashan, she couldn''t help looking forward to it.


    The two drove to the foot of Huashan Mountain. At the moment, there is no large-scale scenic spot construction in Huashan Mountain, and there are not many people coming for spring outing.


    Entering Huashan, you must first pass through Yuquan courtyard, which is a branch of Taoism. There are not many tourists in Huashan, and its incense is naturally not strong.


    Although Merton and Princess Changle could wear light clothes, there were not a few guard maidens before and after. They immediately alerted the Taoist priest of Yuquan Academy.


    "The famous mohou and Princess Changle came to Huashan. It was really magnificent." Taoist Yuquan said warmly. The Mohist school now has a good relationship with the Taoist school. Taoist Yuquan naturally knew that it would be more kind to see Merton coming.


    "Taoist priest, I''m flattered! Mount Hua, the Western Yue, is a famous mountain in the world. Naturally, Mo has heard of it for a long time. I''m attracted by it today. It''s very disturbing." Merton saluted.


    "Don''t bother, don''t bother, two distinguished guests come all the way. I''m the landlord. How about giving them a guide?" Taoist Yuquan said warmly


    Taoist Yuquan is so enthusiastic that he naturally has his plan. Today''s Mohist School''s fame can be said to be at the peak of the Tang Dynasty. If it is publicized that Mohist school loves Huashan, it will surely attract people from all over the world. At that time, the prosperity of his Yuquan academy will be just around the corner.


    Merton''s eyes flashed. Naturally, he knew Taoist Yuquan''s mind, but he didn''t refuse. Xiyue Huashan is a place of interest for future generations. Naturally, he didn''t mind helping him.


    "Two distinguished guests, please!" Taoist Yuquan said in surprise.


    Merton nodded, turned to Changle and said softly, "the danger of Huashan is famous all over the world. The road of Huashan is not so easy, but I promise you it will be worth your trip."


    Hearing the speech, Changle said proudly, "don''t worry, my body is not a weak woman."


    Facts have proved that Princess Changle did not talk big, and the road to Huashan is not as sound as that built by later generations. Some roads are extremely steep. However, Princess Changle is not afraid at all, but looks more and more excited.


    "This is Wang Mengtai!"


    "This is wuliguan!"


    "This is Cloud Gate!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Taoist priest Yuquan introduced these beautiful scenery with enthusiasm. The scenery of Huashan Mountain focused on danger. There were many dangerous situations along the way. Merton and Princess Changle were amazed when they saw it.


    Merton nodded secretly. After the excavation of Taoist temples, these scenic spots are almost the same as those of later generations. It can be said that they are extremely mature scenic spots.


    "It''s really a rare sight," Merton praised.


    Taoist Yuquan smiled proudly and said, "it all depends on the credit of previous generations, but I also have a more dangerous landscape to introduce to you, that is Qianchi building."


    "A thousand feet building on Huashan Mountain?" Merton was moved. He didn''t expect that the famous scenic spots of later generations had been excavated in the Tang Dynasty.


    Under the enthusiastic leadership of Taoist priest Yuquan, Merton and Princess Changle stepped up and saw that the so-called Qianchi building was a big crack on the cliff and trapped in the boulders on both sides, which was very spectacular.


    "The first line of Huashan Mountain is a magical work, and it really deserves its reputation." Princess Changle sighed as she looked at the blue sky over the crack.


    Taoist priest Yuquan said proudly, "there are 370 steps here. Each step is dug by the poor Taoist priest and his disciples."


    Merton appreciated: "Taoist Yuquan''s efforts will not be in vain. This place will certainly be called the place of interest in the Tang Dynasty in the future."


    The people passed through the breathtaking Qianchi building. Princess Merton Changle witnessed the danger of Huashan Mountain. Then, baichi gorge, kite turning over, Laojun furrow and other dangerous places let Princess Changle in the deep palace see these wonders. She couldn''t help shouting excitedly and couldn''t see any feeling of fatigue at all.


    It can be said that the party came and returned with great pleasure. Although the back mountain is not excavated at the moment, it has won a few points on the steep, which makes Merton nostalgic for going back and forth.


    "The danger of Huashan really deserves its reputation. Mo is an eye opener today." Merton sighed.


    The Taoist priest of Yuquan on one side could not help feeling proud, but his tone could not help being gloomy: "Huashan is the most dangerous peak in the world. However, the terrain is too steep for ordinary people to climb, so that there are few tourists. Such a beautiful scenery can only be hidden in the deep mountains. It is really a natural thing. I heard that Marquis Mo has the ability to turn stone into gold. Please give me some advice."


    Taoist priest Yuquan looked forward to Merton. When he learned that Merton was coming, he immediately realized this opportunity, which was such a warm reception.


    Merton pondered and said, "although the danger of Huashan is wonderful, there are still two deficiencies in Mo''s view."


    "Please give me some advice." Taoist priest Yuquan said solemnly.


    Merton said positively, "one is dangerous, the other is not dangerous enough.


    "Both dangerous and not dangerous enough!" Taoist Yuquan couldn''t help staring at Merton, unable to understand Merton''s two contradictory statements.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "first of all, this danger is the biggest feature of Huashan. However, there are no protective measures in some dangerous places of Huashan. If you encounter careless people, it is easy to have accidents. This is why people know that Huashan is steep and beautiful, but they are afraid or discouraged. This is the reason why not many people are willing to come."


    Taoist priest Yuquan immediately thought deeply and asked for advice: "how should Huashan be changed, as Lord Mo said."


    "Most of the dangerous places of Huashan Mountain are cliffs. Waist deep iron ropes can be installed on one side of the cliff, which can protect tourists. Secondly, visitors can seize the iron ropes to climb the mountain and reduce physical consumption. After all, Huashan Mountain is so steep, and climbing is physical work." Merton pointed out.


    He came back so soon today because there were no protective measures in many places. He was unwilling to let Princess Changle take risks. There were many dangerous places he didn''t go, and if he went on, Princess Changle must be out of strength.


    "In this way, with security, ordinary tourists can also save energy, climb mountains easily and enjoy the danger of Huashan. At that time, Huashan will certainly be called the first choice for spring outing in Guanzhong," Merton affirmed.


    We should know that only for ordinary tourists, it is the spring of a tourist attraction. For a long time, Huashan is just a place for adventure for many curious hunters, and there are few natural tourists.


    Taoist priest Yuquan was immediately impressed and said, "what Marquis Mo said is very true. I''m sure I''ll install an iron rope later."


    Although the installation of iron cables is not a small project, it is also of great benefit to Yuquan Taoist temple. Ordinary tourists are also ideal pilgrims of the Taoist temple. Once a large number of ordinary tourists are attracted, Yuquan Taoist temple will be booming. Incense is strong.


    Merton did not propose to actively support the steel cable of Yuquan temple. These Taoist temples are not Qingshui Yamen. They are all rich. There are a lot of ordinary pilgrims, and there is also the support of the imperial court. Naturally, there is no shortage of money.


    Taoist priest Yuquan looked at Merton''s intention of not donating the steel cable. Although he regretted, he had to continue to ask, "what does what Marquis Merton said mean that it is not dangerous enough?"


    Merton and his party just returned to the South Tianmen gate of Nanfeng and pointed to the Cliff Road on one side: "What the world likes to visit mountains and rivers for is nothing more than adventure. The most attractive nature of the danger of Mount Hua is the cliffs. If Taoist Yuquan can follow the example of Shu Road, he can dig a long empty plank road on the cliffs, with iron ropes hanging horizontally. The foot is made of stones, the lower part is fixed by iron piles, and the upper and lower parts are cliffs. It can keep the monks away Earthly retreat can attract an endless stream of adventure explorers. "


    "Taoist priest can imagine that once such a dangerous place is completed, Huashan may immediately become the first tourist exploration in the world. At that time, tourists such as weaving may have to disturb Taoist priest Yuquan''s Qingxiu?"


    "Long sky plank road!"


    Taoist priest Yuquan immediately breathed and was shocked by the scene described by Merton. If it was built into the long sky plank road described by Merton, it was said that countless people would come to explore, and the status of Huashan would jump up and surpass other famous mountains. Taoist priest Yuquan would not be at ease about disturbing Qingxiu. In his opinion, he would not be relieved In recent years, nothing has made Huashan famous. It is most important.


    "But can this be done? I''m afraid the cost is unknown." Taoist Yuquan was excited, but he was not dazzled.


    Merton shook his head and said: "Before that, it must have been very difficult, but now in Chang''an City, the Taoist waidan sect has developed a new building material cement. Once it solidifies like a rock, I believe Taoist Yuquan will be happy to help. With the help of cement, the construction period of Changkong plank road will be shortened by more than half, and it is even stronger in terms of firmness."


    "Cement!" Taoist priest Yuquan immediately moved. Huashan is not far from Chang''an city. He naturally heard of the cement of the Taoist waidan sect. If this artifact helps, the possibility of building the Changkong plank road will increase greatly.


    "Thank you for your advice," said Taoist Yuquan. With Merton''s guidance, he believed that once the transformation of Huashan Mountain is completed, tourists all over the world will move for it.


    Merton bowed back and said, "Taoist Yuquan is very kind. The two Mohists have always been friends. Mo just talked and didn''t make any efforts. Later, the boy asked Mo magazine to install iron rope guardrails on Huashan and make a grand report on the construction of Changkong plank road, which will make Huashan famous and raise some charity money for the construction of Changkong plank road."


    "Great kindness!" said Taoist priest Yuquan gratefully. Although Merton didn''t give a penny, it was worth thousands of gold to Taoist priest Yuquan. With Merton''s strategy, he believed that Huashan would be several times better in the future than today.


    Even Princess Changle could not help looking at Merton''s eyes and being proud of her husband.


    However, the next day, the sequelae of Princess Changle''s mountain climbing appeared. Never as hard as Princess Changle, she was sore all over. She repaired at Yuquan Taoist temple for three days and continued to set off.


    When they set foot on the trip again, a group of citizens in Chang''an City were shocked by Merton''s idea of the long sky plank road.


    "Huashan Daxing!"


    All those who have read Ink magazine lament that if others naturally scoff at it, however, after the success of Mojia village, no one doubts Merton''s ability.

 Chapter 755

    "Huashan Daxing!"


    All those who have read Ink magazine lament that if others naturally scoff at it, however, after the success of Mojia village, no one doubts Merton''s ability.


    On the four wheeled carriage, Princess Changle looked at the report in the ink magazine and said with a smile: "after my husband helped Huashan design the long sky plank road, there must be countless people ahead looking forward to my husband''s arrival."


    This time Merton is in the limelight. Some famous mountain monuments will be ecstatic when they hear Merton''s arrival. After all, even if Merton doesn''t have the ability to turn stone into gold, even his own fame has a great impact on the local area.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "the next stop is not necessarily."


    "Why is this?" Princess Changle wondered.


    Merton explained: "because our next stop is Fenglingdu. If the Mohists want to build a bridge across the Yellow River in the future, I''m afraid Fenglingdu is the first choice."


    Fengling ferry is the turning point of the Yellow River and the largest ferry in Guanzhong. The water potential is gentle and the river channel is narrow. Naturally, it has the most value and conditions for building a bridge. Once the Yellow River Bridge is ready to be built here, the boatman on both sides will hate Merton.


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look and said, "who told you to boast in front of your father."


    When the couple arrived at Fengling ferry, they could not help but be shocked by the busy in front of them. The whole Fengling ferry was full of goods. I''m afraid no less than 100000 people depended on the ferry to survive.


    Princess Changle asked anxiously, "do you want to build a bridge here?"


    It is conceivable that if the Yellow River Bridge is really built here in the future, although countless people will benefit from it, these boatmans will certainly lose their livelihood in front of them.


    Merton took a heavy breath: "of course, but Weifu decided to build it at the end. Weifu suddenly found that the junction of the brick road north of Xingyang and the Yellow River is more suitable. It is the Central Plains of the Tang Dynasty, with more convenient transportation. Although the river is wide, the water flow is very slow, and the success rate of building the bridge is higher and more traffic value."


    When Princess Changle heard Merton''s hard mouth and soft heart, she couldn''t help laughing. This was the husband she loved, not a cold politician.


    The couple did not disturb others. After quietly visiting Fenglingdu, they did not continue to travel eastward. They turned to take a boat to cross Fenglingdu and came to another scenic spot not far away - stork tower.


    The stork tower is located on the East Bank of the Yellow River, only 50 miles from Fenglingdu. It was built by Yu Wenhu, a powerful minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, missing his mother. It stands on the edge of the rolling Yellow River.


    "My body..."


    The stork tower has six floors, but it is twenty feet high. Princess Changle has just experienced the pain of traveling to Huashan. Seeing such a high floor, she can''t help shrinking.


    "When you climb high and look far, only the scenery at the top is the most beautiful." Merton persuaded Princess Changle to summon up her courage and climb to the top at one go.


    "How spectacular!" Princess Changle looked at the sunset that was about to fall, reflected in the broad water of the Yellow River, with fish scale waves surging like the sea. The magnificent scene made people feel relaxed and happy.


    Merton saw that Princess Changle was in a good mood. He couldn''t help but sing in his ear: "in the daytime, the mountain is at the end of the day, and the Yellow River flows into the sea. If you want to be poor for thousands of miles, you can go to a higher level."


    Princess Changle''s eyes suddenly burst into brilliance. Her eyes looked at her husband like waves. Such beautiful scenery was matched by peerless poems. For a moment, Princess Changle had a kind husband, too. What do women want.


    It was not until the couple left that they saw the poem inscribed by Merton that they knew that Merton and Princess Changle came to visit the stork tower. In an instant, the whole Puzhou was a sensation, and everyone scrambled to praise Merton''s song of climbing the stork tower.


    "...... If you want to be poor for thousands of miles, you can go to a higher level. It is really a unique poem for thousands of years. From then on, the stork tower will certainly become a famous building in China." the magistrate of Pu county was excited and couldn''t restrain himself,


    "I''ve heard that the Mohist family once humbled himself to such great achievements, but stood on the shoulders of the Mohist ancestors. I''m afraid only this poem is in line with the Mohist mind." a scholar sighed.


    The magistrate of Pu County nodded repeatedly and immediately ordered that the ink treasures of mojiazi be pasted and hung in the stork tower for everyone to watch.


    For a long time, although the stork tower has some fame, it does not have much advantage compared with other buildings. Now with the blessing of this handed down poem, the stork tower has suddenly become famous.


    Almost in a short time, the stork tower was full of tourists, who rushed to see Merton''s poems and the scenic spots of the stork tower,


    If it''s just a coincidence that Merton designed the long sky plank road of Huashan Mountain, now another poem has made the stork tower famous. At the moment, no one doubts the ability of the Mohists to turn stone into gold. Many famous building resorts are looking forward to Merton. However, Merton didn''t stay too much, but went all the way east to Luoyang.


    At the same time, this poem spread to the Tang Dynasty at the fastest speed. Everywhere they went, they were all interested in talking about it. Almost everyone envied the talent of Mozi and the romance of their honeymoon,


    When this poem spread to Chang''an City, almost everyone praised it. In the palace, Li Shimin and empress changsun sat side by side. In front of them were the latest whereabouts of Merton and Princess Changle and this poem.


    After learning that Merton and Princess Changle had visited the rosefinch tower, the magistrate of Puxian county quickly reported to the palace and brushed his impression in front of Li Shimin.


    "The boy is restless and tossing everywhere!" Li Shimin said not only jealous but also envious.


    The eldest Sun Queen said with a smile, "what are you worried about here? We haven''t been out of the palace for some time."


    Li Shimin nodded. The year before last, they were going to Jiuhua palace for summer vacation. As a result, Merton invented saltpeter ice making and swimming pool. Under the novelty, Li Shimin directly cancelled the trip and spent the summer comfortably.


    The next year, he met Tuyuhun in the western expedition. Li Shimin was not in the mood to go on vacation. He had been dealing with military affairs in the court for two years. Li Shimin had not left the palace for two years.


    "Why don''t we go to Jiuhua palace for summer vacation this summer, just you and me?" Li Shimin said in his heart.


    Empress Chang sun was immediately moved and rushed into Li Shimin''s arms. The couple were happy.


    In fact, it''s not just Li Shimin and empress changsun. Who in the whole Tang Dynasty doesn''t envy Merton and Princess Changle''s honeymoon trip, the sweetness between husband and wife, the curiosity of famous mountains and rivers, and the well-known poems. They haven''t arrived in Luoyang City yet. It''s widely said that the Mexican family and Princess Changle are about to arrive in Luoyang.

 Chapter 756

    "Luoyang is here!"


    According to the speed of the carriage in Mojia village, the journey from Chang''an city to Luoyang is just a day and night. However, Merton and Princess Changle climbed mountains and played with water all the way, enjoyed scenic spots and historic sites, and finally reached Chang''an city.


    Looking at this majestic city that is not inferior to Chang''an City, Princess Changle was surprised. Chang''an and Luoyang have been in similar status for nearly a century. They have become the capital of the country for a time in terms of economy, population and even. Chang''an order and Luoyang order Zhou Hongde are rare five grade officials among the cities of the imperial court, which shows the status of Luoyang.


    "The royal highness of the princess and Mo Hou came from far away, and the lower officials were far from welcome.


    Merton and his wife had just arrived at the west gate of Luoyang City. Unexpectedly, they saw that Luoyang Lingzhou Hongde was already waiting. Officials would not come forward to meet princess Changle, so Merton had to come forward to entertain.


    "You''re welcome, Mr. Zhou. My husband and wife came to play and had no official business. I''m really sorry to disturb adults." Merton said helplessly.


    Luoyang makes Zhou Hongde happy Landau: "mohou is modest, and mohho and his royal highness all come East, Huashan and stork house have risen rapidly, and they have benefited immense. The world knows the skills of making Hau stone and gold able to perform wonders, and Luoyang people hope for Mo Hou."


    To tell the truth, Zhou Hongde''s love for Merton is mixed with hate. If it were not for Merton, Luoyang, the center of the Grand Canal, would certainly surpass Chang''an City in economic status.


    However, since Merton allowed brick road to flourish in the Tang Dynasty, the traffic advantages of Luoyang and Chang''an City have been continuously narrowed. Coupled with the industrial wave disliked by Mohists in Chang''an City, Chang''an economy has developed rapidly. Now, Luoyang has made Zhou Hongde subordinate to Su Luosheng, the magistrate of Chang''an County, in terms of political achievements for many years, and the gap is even widening.


    However, Merton''s flood discharge method for harnessing the Yellow River has greatly improved his political achievements and indirectly helped him. On the one hand, Zhou Hongde''s enthusiasm is due to the identity of Princess Changle, on the other hand, he attaches great importance to Merton''s skills. After all, it is clear from the previous Huashan Mountain and stork tower, if Merton''s help can be obtained, He may not have had a chance to beat sullosen.


    However, Merton is destined to disappoint Zhou Hongde in Luoyang. This is Merton''s honeymoon. He doesn''t want to add some political things here.


    Luoyang made Zhou Hongde naturally an interesting person. He was not asking questions, but solemnly said: "Marquis Mo and the princess came all the way. The lower official has prepared his residence and asked the princess to move."


    Merton shook his head and said, "thank you for your kindness. Mo has made arrangements for the Mojia village before he came. I won''t disturb you."


    Luoyang made Zhou Hongde nodded and shifted the topic: "the official would not disturb her royal highness. Later, the official would give a banquet for the princess and Mo hou to catch up with the wind."


    Seeing that Luoyang made Zhou Hongde persevere, Merton immediately knew that he couldn''t pass this level without bleeding. Moreover, the business of the Mohist school had a considerable focus on Luoyang. Zhou Hongde always maintained a fair attitude, which made the Mohist school no damage to Luoyang City. At present, he had no choice but to say, "then nag your excellency."


    When Zhou Hongde heard the speech, he was overjoyed and solemnly said, "thank you, marquis mo."


    Zhou Hongde said goodbye to Merton and Princess Changle, and had already waited for the Mohists to come up.


    "See you, young master and madam!"


    "Old Hua, uncle Yu and shopkeeper Xu!" Merton waved to the crowd. Old Hua and uncle Yu had been operating in Chang''an City for a year, while shopkeeper Xu ran on both sides of Luoyang and Chang''an city. Last year, the money in Luoyang played a great role in the crisis of Mojia village, and their achievements were indispensable.


    Old Hua and uncle Yu, both elders of Merton, took the initiative to get out of the car to meet princess Changle, whom Zhou Hongde avoided in Luoyang.


    The two quickly returned their gifts with a flattered face.


    "Shopkeeper Xu, is my residence ready?" Merton asked after greeting. He took a long time along the way. One of the reasons was to prepare a surprise for Princess Changle, a peony garden specially opened for Princess Changle.


    "Young master Hui, you said that the peony garden has been prepared. Its owner loves peonies. The peonies cultivated are unique in Luoyang. Before, we went to contact and wanted to buy its peony garden, but this person refused. We had no choice but to say that the young master prepared for the princess. Its owner had heard of the hero''s kindness to relieve the flood of the Yellow River, so we reluctantly gave up our love." Shopkeeper Xu arched to Princess Changle in the carriage.


    Merton couldn''t help but wonder in his heart and said with a smile: "so, this time I''m still stained with the light of the lady."


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look and smiled proudly.


    Princess Changle, who controls the Red Cross Society, has a high reputation among the people. Whenever there is a crisis, you can see the Red Cross Society. Especially the Yellow River flood discharge the year before last, the Red Cross Society appeared in Luoyang for the first time. The people of Luoyang are most grateful to Princess Changle.


    The carriage went all the way and soon entered Luoyang City. Suddenly, a lively atmosphere came to our face. Luoyang City was a little less serious than Chang''an City in politics, but a little more commercial atmosphere. The streets of Luoyang City were even more lively.


    "Luoyang is really prosperous!" Princess Changle exclaimed.


    Merton solemnly nodded. Luoyang is the second pearl of the Tang Dynasty. It can even be said to be the transportation center and economic center of the Tang Dynasty. If Merton did not appear in the Tang Dynasty, if there were no accidents, Luoyang would really surpass Chang''an City in decades. Since then, it has always been the national capital of the Tang Dynasty, and Chang''an has declined completely and never become the national capital again.


    Shopkeeper Xu opened the way in front. The carriage quickly crossed the busy streets of Luoyang and came to a large courtyard.


    "How fragrant!" Princess Changle smelled the refreshing fragrance when she was still on the carriage. In fact, the smell of a single peony was not strong. It must be that many peonies opened together to have such a strong smell.


    "Sure enough, Princess Changle is coming!"


    "I said that the owner of the peony garden is a flower maniac. I''m afraid only princess Changle has the face to let her give up her love."


    "However, mojiazi did not let the owner of the peony garden suffer losses. He not only gave him huge compensation, but also allowed him to transplant some peonies to continue to cultivate."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Peony garden is a holy land of Luoyang peony. The news of its change of ownership has long been quietly spread all over Luoyang City. When Merton and Princess Changle entered the peony garden, everyone suddenly understood the reason why the owner of the lonely peony garden was willing to transfer.


    Many girls looked at Merton and Princess Changle with envy. Merton bought the peony garden directly in order to enjoy the peonies in Luoyang. How can such a big pen not be envied by many girls.


    "Wow! How beautiful!"


    When Princess Changle stepped into the peony garden, she was immediately amazed by the colorful peonies in the garden. In addition to the common white peony, red peony, Yellow Peony and Yellow Peony, there is also a rare rare rare rare black peony.


    There is even a peony on which there are seven different colors of peonies, which constitute the color of seven colors. It is also a boutique among peonies. Princess Changle is like an elf in the flower, shuttling among the competing peonies, like a Peony Fairy, roaming in the sea of flowers.


    "This master must be an expert farmer!" Merton sighed, looking at the peony in full bloom in front of him. In the Tang Dynasty, although peonies have been very popular in Luoyang, few people have cultivated them on a large scale. The owner of the original peony garden is worthy of being a genius. I''m afraid it''s not too much to be the first person to cultivate peonies.


    Princess Changle stopped and said, "farmers also cultivate flowers?"


    Merton nodded and said, "flowers are also planted in the soil. Naturally, they belong to farmers, and some flowers can even be used as medicinal materials! Even the inoculation of all things is inseparable from flowering and pollination. If you can control the flowering period, it''s like controlling the farming season. What''s not a farmer?"


    Princess Changle nodded thoughtfully.


    Morton laughed and said, "Lord Zhou has always wanted Mo''s help, but he doesn''t know that the real opportunity for Luoyang is far away and near. Shopkeeper Xu, please invite the original owner of the peony garden, say that the Mohist family wants to cooperate with the farmhouse, and ask the farmhouse experts to give you advice."


    "Don''t invite me. I''m ashamed. I really can''t afford to be praised by Marquis mo. Laozao is just a flower farmer. Where is an expert farmer." suddenly, a flower farmer with a hoe got up and said, he is about 50 years old. His appearance is simple, and he is as common as an ordinary farmer.


    "Mr. Hu, how can you be a flower farmer here?" Xu Jie was surprised. The flower farmer officially became Hu daonong, the original owner of the peony garden.


    Hu daonong said with a wry smile, "this peony garden is the work of my whole life. I really can''t rest assured. Even if I''m a flower farmer again, I''m willing. If I collide with the princess and Marquis Mo, I hope I''ll forgive me."


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "it is Changle that wins people''s love. You are the real owner of the garden. The garden will always be open to Mr. Zhou. Changle will soon return to Chang''an city. I hope Mr. Zhou can help take care of the garden in the future."


    Xu Jie was relieved. Fortunately, Princess Changle didn''t blame him, otherwise he would be to blame.


    Hu daonong said with great joy: "thank you, princess."


    Let him give up his hard work at once. Naturally, he didn''t give up. The arrangement of Princess Changle naturally surprised him.


    "Listen to your royal highness like the peony, this is the old and carefully modulated peony nectar, but the peony is blooming for more than a month. As long as there is this peony nectar, even if the flowering period has passed, Princess Royal Highness can often smell the peony flowers." Hu Daonong smelled a porcelain bottle.


    Changle then opened the bottle stopper, and suddenly came out with a strong smell of peony. "It''s not the original perfume," moton thought.


    "I''ve heard a lot about mohou. Mohou''s grafting method is really an eye opener for me. This colorful peony is cultivated by mohou''s grafting method. Recently, it''s rumored that mohou''s greenhouse method can win the four seasons and make all flowers open in winter. In my opinion, mohou is the real farmer. I don''t know what I''m looking for." Hu daonong didn''t understand.


    Merton looked at the peony nectar that the princess of Changle could not help and could not reveal a mysterious smile. "There was only one thing for the older generation. Now I am afraid it is two things. The first thing is that Mo Hou and the farmers want to make perfume together."

 Chapter 757

    "Perfume?"


    Hu daonong didn''t understand.


    "Perfume is just like peony nectar in the hands of a cabinet," he said. "It''s a little spray that makes people smell all over the place. It must be very popular in Luoyang."


    Since Hu daonong solemnly gave it to Changle, he naturally regarded it as extremely precious,


    Hu daonong immediately said proudly, "that''s natural. This nectar needs to be made by peony flowers for a long time. However, the output is rare. Ordinary people are asking for a lot of money, and I don''t want to sell it."


    Merton nodded her head. "The perfume that Mo says is not simply a hundred flowers, but uses the fragrance of the world to make all kinds of flowers and fragrances. Ordinary women only need a little spray to make them smell good for a few days.


    The princess of Changle is not aware of her eyes, but now the princess of the palace likes to smell their clothes. However, the pure incense has fragrance and love. If the perfume that is written by Merton is really made, it will not make the harem crazy. Even if the princess of Changle is indifferent, she can not tolerate the temptation of perfume.


    However, Hu Daonong frowned. "Old man only loves peony, but he doesn''t dabble in other flowers. Besides, perfume is a woman''s thing. I''m afraid it will be criticized in the future."


    Merton shook his head: "no harm, the older generation is mainly based on the secret recipe of peony nectar. First, the peony perfume is produced. If the older generation does not want to create the name of perfume, it can be affiliated to the name of Changle. If the perfume comes out in the future, it will surely be a benefit of Hu predecessors. The Red Cross will definitely get a lot of money."


    "Changle can''t help it," said the princess of Changle. As long as she can help the Red Cross Society, she will never refuse, let alone perfume is a necessary thing for women.


    Hu daonong immediately hesitated, but when he heard that the proceeds would be used by the Red Cross in the future, he did not refuse.


    Merton continued: "in return, the Mohists will build a glass greenhouse for their predecessors. At that time, even in the winter when the cold wind is fierce and the university is filled, their predecessors can also make peony flowers open."


    Hu daonong suddenly breathed.


    Merton said again: "the Mohist ancestors once found that if you change the pH of the soil, you can change the color. If elder Hu takes this as an opportunity to conduct in-depth research, I believe there will be more color peonies. What''s the secret of exchanging your peony nectar with this secret recipe, boy?"


    "There is such a secret skill in the world!" Hu daonong couldn''t believe it.


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "naturally, this is what the Mohist ancestors learned from many experiments. Take our common Trumpet Flower as an example. You can change the color by controlling the soil."


    "In this way, I have no reason to refuse.


    Hu daonong reluctantly said that peony was his favorite, and Merton finally offered the condition he couldn''t refuse.


    The Mohist School exchanged his peony nectar formula with the secret skill of cultivating peony flower color. It can be said that it hit his heart, not to mention the glass greenhouse envied by everyone, which is a temptation that no peasant can refuse.


    Merton laughed and said, "next, I wish Meron and his family a happy cooperation."


    "The second thing that mohou said..." Hu daonong hesitated.


    Merton Lang said, "the second thing is good news for the elder. Once this is done, the peonies will open everywhere in Chang''an City and become the real king of flowers."


    "King of flowers!" Hu daonong''s heart pounded. He loved peony. Naturally, he had a deep feeling for peony. Naturally, he was happy to see the status of peony among the flowers improved.


    "Mo is going to meet Lord Lingzhou of Luoyang tonight, and then the elder will know." Merton sold Guan Zi.


    evening


    Luoyang made Zhou Hongde invite again, but Merton didn''t refuse. Instead, he decided to place it at the yuzhuangyuan building in Luoyang and took the initiative to entertain Zhou Hongde.


    Zhou Hongde is naturally happy to attend the banquet. Luoyang yuzhuangyuan building is the industry of Mohism and a new famous building in Luoyang. If he chooses another place for the banquet, it is naturally inappropriate. If he chooses the yuzhuangyuan building, it will appear that he is suspected of eating free food. Isn''t it even more inappropriate? Now Merton is the main guest, so Zhou Hongde naturally avoids embarrassment.


    When Zhou Hongde arrived at the yuzhuangyuan building, he saw a strange Hu daonong on one side. There was no figure of Princess Changle. He was puzzled, but he didn''t move.


    "The princess is tired and has rested. Please forgive me, Lord Zhou." Merton Lang said. Merton pushed it off. However, Princess Changle naturally didn''t have to worry too much, so she rested on the grounds of lack of sleep.


    "The princess''s body is important, no harm!" said Zhou Hongde. His purpose is Merton. Instead of coming forward, Princess Changle can avoid suspicion. Naturally, he doesn''t care.


    "This is the farmer''s elder Hu and the former owner of the peony garden." Merton recommended.


    Zhou Hongde suddenly said enthusiastically, "I''ve heard a lot about senior Hu''s name."


    "My Lord, that''s great!" Hu daonong said with an arch hand. He usually loves flowers and seldom deals with outsiders. He is a little cramped.


    Zhou Hongde has also been in officialdom for a long time. He exchanged greetings and immediately activated the atmosphere in the house.


    "Mohou came all the way. I should have entertained you. I''m really sorry to let mohou spend money." Zhou Hongde said.


    Merton laughed and said, "the fish champion building is the industry of Mohism. If you don''t spend money, why spend money."


    The design of Luoyang yuzhuangyuan building is very exquisite, mixed with many Mohist crafts. Merton stretched out his hand and pulled the bell beside him, and soon uncle Yu pushed the door in. A lot of Mohist places offered the unique delicacies of yuzhuangyuan building, and even the unique off-season vegetables of Mohist.


    Zhou Hongde can''t help feeling that the fish champion restaurant of Mohism has just opened in Luoyang for less than a year and has become the top restaurant in Chang''an city. In addition to the fine food of Mohism, these exquisite and practical designs have also contributed to it. In particular, the emergence of off-season vegetables has strengthened the position of the fish champion restaurant.


    "This is the out of season vegetables!" Hu daonong looked at the vegetables, melons and fruits in front of him in surprise. He planted flowers all the year round and was proficient in farming. I''m afraid these vegetables have just sprouted according to farming time, and the Mohist school has put them on the table.


    "I''ve heard about the secret skills of Mohism for a long time. Today, I see it really deserves its reputation." Zhou Hongde tasted an out of season vegetable and couldn''t help but praise it again and again.


    "The boy just likes the appetite, which makes adults laugh." Merton said modestly.


    Zhou Hongde solemnly shook his head and said, "although the desire for food is not only a small matter, but also a major event related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood, the idea of the people''s daily use of mohou is really extraordinary."


    Hu daonong nodded deeply. He couldn''t help being convinced by the Mohist school. There are flowers before fruits. The Mohist school can cultivate vegetables, melons and fruits out of season. Naturally, it''s not difficult to cultivate flowers. In this way, the things Merton promised him can be realized.


    After three rounds of wine, the guests and hosts enjoyed each other.


    Zhou Hongde put down his glass and drank it all at once. "When Mo Hou came all the way East, the value of Huashan and stork tower doubled. The people of Luoyang had long expected Mo hou to come and see his style."


    With a flash in his eyes, Merton naturally knew what Zhou Hongde meant and said helplessly: "Mo, that''s just a subtotal. How can it compare with last week''s policy of governing the people for the benefit of all the people? Now Luoyang sits in the center of the world, brick roads and canals converge here, and parents like Lord Zhou work hard. Within decades, Luoyang will surpass Chang''an City and become the first city in the world."


    "Within a few decades!"


    "The first city in the world!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Zhou hongdeton felt a burst of heroism. Even the famous Mohist recognized the potential of Luoyang, which was enough to make him proud.


    However, not to mention decades, even if he was not in the position of Luoyang Ling for several years, the future achievements of Luoyang City have nothing to do with him. What he wants is an immediate effect like Huashan and stork tower.


    Zhou Hongde was thinking about how to ask Merton for help. Suddenly, he heard Merton say, "in fact, I have something to ask for today."


    "Mo Hou has something to say! As long as I can do it, I can''t say anything." Zhou hongdeton was overjoyed when he couldn''t find a chance to make Mo Dun owe a favor. Isn''t it just time to doze off and give him a pillow.


    "After visiting the peony garden, the princess deeply felt the beauty of the peony. How can such beautiful flowers be hidden in the deep courtyard? Meng Ziyun, solo music is not as good as public music. After some discussion, our husband and wife decided to open the peony garden for free." Merton said.


    "Open the peony garden!" Hu daonong was shocked and quickly turned to Merton. The peony garden was the work of his life. All along, only a few dignitaries and dignitaries can visit it. Where is it open to ordinary people.


    "This is a good thing in the world, Princess benevolence and righteousness!" Zhou Hongde naturally echoed.


    "However, the power of one person is limited after all. There are many varieties of peonies in the peony garden, which can not summarize the peony varieties in the world. In Chang''an City, there must be many cherished peony varieties that have been collected and cultivated by private people and refused to show them to others. Mo wants to ask the county Lord for help, and calls on the people in the city to take the initiative to open up, take the peony garden as the center, collect the peony varieties in the world, and form the first Luoyang peony garden "The peony party." Merton Lang said. Since he and Princess Changle came to Luoyang to see the peonies, he naturally wanted to be round and full. How can he give up halfway.


    "Luoyang Peony Fair!"


    Zhou Hongde was shocked. They didn''t expect that Mohist''s idea was so grand.


    "Gather all the peony varieties in the world!"


    Hu daonong couldn''t help breathing. This is his goal all the time. Unfortunately, it''s impossible to do it with the help of only one person. However, mojiazi had just arrived in Luoyang for only one day and had to do something he hadn''t done in his life.


    Moreover, in the name of the Peony Fair, coupled with the influence of Princess Changle and Luoyang Ling, Hu daonong can almost be sure that this can be done.


    Zhou Hongde frowned and said, "I do know some people who love peonies. However, these flower lovers all regard peonies as treasures. How can they be willing to show their treasures to the world."


    In Luoyang City, however, many rare peony varieties are hidden in the rich courtyard. They are usually regarded as treasures and proud. There are willing to share them with ordinary people.


    Merton arched his hand and said, "this is where Mo asked for your help. I believe that with your influence, you can certainly promote this. Once the Peony Fair is completed, every time the peonies bloom in Luoyang, the whole Luoyang city is like a sea of flowers. What a magnificent scene it will be, which is much better than some evergreen trees in Mojia village."


    Zhou hongdeton was in a hurry, but he knew that since the expansion of Mojia village, its urban planning and design had immediately spread all over the world. It was amazing. Chang''an made Su Luosheng get the moon first, and he was taking the lead in large-scale planting of evergreen trees.


    Now Luoyang has fallen behind step by step, and the Peony Fair proposed by Merton immediately let Zhou Hongde see the opportunity of Luoyang''s anti surpassing.


    "At that time, Luoyang will certainly be famous. People all over the world will come one after another, and tourists will follow one another. Peony will become the king of flowers in one fell swoop. Luoyang will also benefit from peony for generations."


    "King of peonies and flowers!"


    "Luoyang benefits generations!"


    Zhou Hongde must be excited. A peony has attracted Princess Changle and mohou, which is an irresistible temptation for ordinary people. At that time, Luoyang Peony Fair will certainly become as famous as Chang''an lantern fair, and the benefits to Luoyang can be said to be self-evident.


    Even with the expansion of the influence of the Peony Fair, it is not impossible for the person from Chang''an city to be present in person when the peonies bloom again in the future.


    "In addition, we can also set up a big prize. If someone gives a variety that is not available in the peony garden, Mojia village will reward it with 10000 yuan," Morton said.


    Hu daonong nodded secretly. The price of 10000 yuan for a new variety must not be resisted by many people, and this seems to cost a lot of MI, but the peony garden has collected most of the varieties, and not many of them are left out, so it won''t cost much.


    "I know that there are several extinct peonies in the hands of several people. I''m afraid that mohou will not be able to attract him even if he offers 10000 yuan." Hu daonong said in his heart. Naturally, some people regard the collected peonies as treasures. He has been staring at them for a long time. Unfortunately, the bid is very high and the other party is not moved.


    Merton said confidently, "since the inducement is not enough, we will use the name. At each Peony Fair, we will choose a king of peonies, whose name will be corrected by the Luoyang county government. Those peonies who refuse to show people will naturally have no chance to run. I don''t believe how many people can stand it."


    "Mohou has a brilliant plan!" Zhou Hongde laughed.


    Hu daonong couldn''t help nodding. In this way, with Zhou Hongde''s affection, the temptation of ten thousand money and the honor of the king of peony, the Peony Fair will be a success in one fell swoop.


    Merton said proudly, "now that we have the support of the government, the money of the Mojia village and the farming cultivation secrets of elder Hu, over time, all kinds of rare varieties must be all over the streets and alleys of Luoyang, and the Luoyang Peony Fair must be more and more prosperous."


    It is natural for Merton to spare no effort to bring the charm of Luoyang Peony Fair into full bloom in the Tang Dynasty in advance. On the one hand, it is a perfect honeymoon for Changle, and on the other hand, it is for Luoyang, a famous city through the ages.


    "Thank you for your advice!" Zhou Hongde got up and solemnly saluted Merton.


    It seems that Merton asked him for help, but in fact, it has countless benefits for Luoyang. The value of Luoyang Peony Fair is not comparable to the long sky plank road of Huashan Mountain or a poem climbing the stork tower.


    "The Mohist school turned stone into gold. It really deserves its reputation." Hu daonong sighed.


    Peony has existed in Luoyang for thousands of years. No one has thought of making a profit with it. The Mohist son doubled the value of peony in one day.

 Chapter 758

    "The first Peony Fair in Luoyang!"


    The next day, Luoyang City was directly covered with notices to prepare for the Peony Fair, encouraging the people of the whole city to actively participate and detonate the whole city in an instant.


    You should know that peonies are the pride of Luoyang. Most rich and noble families widely plant peonies. Some flower lovers even have their own private peony gardens, and even some rare varieties are expensive. Once they appear on the market, they immediately cause people to rush.


    Even ordinary people also plant some to decorate their own courtyard. However, no one thought that their common peonies would form a Peony Fair.


    "The place is actually the peony garden in the west of Luoyang! Isn''t it prepared by the Mohists for Princess Changle? How can it be the place of the Peony Fair?" a Luoyang citizen looked at the notice and wondered.


    "It''s said that this Peony Fair is the mojiazi''s honeymoon trip for Princess Changle. Otherwise, how can it spend ten thousand dollars to offer a reward for the precious peony." a merchant looked at the reward on the notice and said with envy that a precious peony that does not exist in the peony garden can be sold for ten thousand dollars, which seems to the merchant that there is no such cost-effective business anymore.


    "Mozi is really infatuated!"


    "Princess Changle is so happy."


    Everyone is jealous. The honeymoon trip is unheard of by everyone. Once it has been spread, it has been envied by everyone. However, just when mojiazi arrived in Luoyang City, he wanted to collect Luoyang Peony treasures for Princess Changle to enjoy. What a romance.


    "Naer and others are mistaken. The Mohist school is not only for Princess Changle to enjoy, but for the citizens of Luoyang to enjoy the peony garden. I have just returned from the peony garden, and the Mohist children are tearing down the wall of the peony garden and rebuilding it. The citizens will be allowed to enter and enjoy it freely at the Peony Fair," said an idle man.


    "Seriously? That''s Hu daonong''s peony garden. I heard there are many peony treasures in it." everyone was excited.


    Hu daonong''s peony garden is famous in Luoyang. In the past, ordinary people didn''t have the opportunity to visit it, but they didn''t expect to open it to the public for free.


    "By the way, my family also has peonies handed down by our ancestors. If there is no variety in the peony garden, it is not worth ten thousand dollars." suddenly someone said excitedly.


    Suddenly, many people were moved. The reward was quick and slow. If the varieties that did not exist in the peony garden were robbed and sent first, wouldn''t it be empty for later people to draw water with bamboo baskets.


    For a while, many people took action and began to offer precious peonies to the peony garden. From time to time, the news that one or two lucky people got a reward immediately attracted more people to offer flowers to the peony garden. Even if the offered peonies are not the treasures of the peony garden, as long as they are good, they will also give a lot of reward.


    "What''s worth ten thousand dollars? I''m still interested in the selection of the peony king. I heard that the peony that won the final prize will also receive the certificate issued by the county government. This is the real business opportunity." many people are moved and are very interested in the idea of the peony King.


    With the active participation of Luoyang citizens, there are more and more varieties of peony gardens, the scale of Peony Fair is becoming larger and larger, and its influence has spread all over the streets. Moreover, with the passage of time, the news of Luoyang holding Peony Fair has spread rapidly in all directions.


    Many humanists and poets have heard the wind and come to Luoyang City one after another. Especially after the news reaches Chang''an City, the every move of Merton and Princess Changle will attract the attention of Chang''an people.


    Now the news that mojiazi held Luoyang Flower Fair for Princess Changle spread, and it immediately spread in Chang''an city. Suddenly, many Chang''an citizens were moved and immediately rushed to Luoyang City by carriage. There were things similar to ink technology exhibition and new year''s Eve Lantern Festival, but this time the people of Chang''an city rushed to Luoyang City.


    On the streets of Chang''an City, Su Luosheng looked at the streets that had just been afforested with satisfaction. Now he completely imitated the layout of Mojia village. Sure enough, Chang''an city was completely new after afforesting. In this way, his political achievements can be heavily added.


    "My Lord, marquis Mo held a peony party for Princess Changle in Luoyang." suddenly, Constable Cao came to report.


    After hearing the report from Constable Cao, Su Luosheng couldn''t help sighing, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Lord Zhou is really lucky!"


    Originally, he had pressed Zhou Hongde down, but he didn''t expect that Merton''s honeymoon trip suddenly gave Zhou Hongde a chance to breathe. This time, their struggle for promotion fell into a stalemate again.


    In the palace, Li Shimin looked at the idea of Luoyang Peony Fair sent by Zhou Hongde and said with a bitter smile: "Merton is really not worried. He is not peaceful everywhere."


    However, from Li Shimin''s perspective, we can naturally see the benefits of the Peony Fair. Peony is a specialty of Luoyang. After cultivation, it only needs to be taken care of regularly. The maintenance cost is very low, but it is a huge profit compared with the income.


    "This is the so-called talent for governing the village!" Li Shimin sighed. If all officials have such talent for governing the village, he doesn''t have to worry too much.


    In the imperial garden of the rear palace, there are hundreds of flowers competing for beauty. It is a rare beauty in the world. Imperial concubines of the rear palace come in an endless stream. They fought openly and secretly, but on the surface, there was harmony.


    However, when the news came that Merton held a peony party for Princess Changle in Luoyang, the concubines were silent, and they were a little less interested to see these flowers.


    "Sister Chong Hua, are the peonies in Luoyang really so beautiful?" imperial concubine Yang turned to Zheng Chong Hua.


    "Sister Hui Yang, the peony is magnificent, dignified and national. It is the king of flowers. Every year when the peonies in Luoyang bloom, the whole city smells fragrant. Even ordinary families put them out for good luck." Zheng Chonghua can''t help but miss Tao and think of the carefree feeling of wandering Peony flowers when she was a girl. Compared with the intrigues in the palace now, It''s a pity that the peony in Luoyang is better than in the past, and she can''t go back.


    "What my sister said is true. I once lived in Luoyang, where the peonies are really the most beautiful." Princess Wei agreed with Zheng Chonghua once.


    "So, Changle is really lucky!" Yang Fei smiled.


    The concubines nodded one after another. As for what they thought, we don''t know.


    With the spread of the news, especially Luoyang directly advertised in ink and Confucian journals, Luoyang Peony will stir up the world for a while, and countless flower lovers rushed to Luoyang City.


    For a while, Luoyang City met with the wind and cloud, and became the focus of the world at one fell swoop.

 Chapter 759

    The spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period were the most glorious period for the strategists. When they were angry, the princes were afraid, and when they rested, the world would die out. Each generation was a generation of heroes and led the wind and cloud. However, hundreds of years later, no one could dominate the wind and cloud like that in those years.


    However, now the Mohist school has come all the way to the East. Everywhere it goes, it will cause a sensation and make the local reputation soar. It can be said that it is not inferior to the style of statesmen in those years.


    However, different from the strategists, the Mohist school brought not war but fame and interests. A long sky plank road can predict the rise of Huashan Mountain. Climbing the stork tower with one song makes the stork tower popular, and now the Peony Fair is gathering the wind and clouds in Luoyang.


    "Mojiazi!"


    The people of Luoyang all lamented the Mo family''s means of turning over clouds and rain. Everyone understood that the Peony Fair was held, which seemed to be the Mo family''s new idea of Princess Changle''s honeymoon trip. However, it was Luoyang City, even the people of Luoyang, who really benefited.


    For a while, the reputation of Mojia Zi and Mojia village in Luoyang City suddenly rose. The original difficult situation of Mojia village immediately improved greatly, and the goods of Mojia village sold very well in Luoyang.


    "Three birds with one stone is really a good means for Mohists." in a private peony garden in Luoyang, a gnashing of teeth sounded.


    Facts have proved that people are not gold and silver. They can''t be loved by everyone. Even if they bring such great benefits to Luoyang City, some people still don''t like Merton.


    "Brother Zheng, today''s mojiazi has been attached to Princess Changle and become relatives of the emperor. You can''t take it lightly anymore." a young man in Tsing Yi advised the person sitting in the first place.


    If Merton was here, he would surely find that Zheng Chang, Zheng Chonghua''s brother, was the leader. When the Luoyang aristocratic family besieged the Mojia village, he was countered by Merton Jedi. Lu Shuang became a scapegoat and fell flat. Zheng Chang escaped a disaster because his sister became Chonghua, but suffered heavy losses.


    However, at that time, the Mohist family was still in its infancy. The Luoyang aristocratic family wanted to attack the Mohist village and covet the wealth of the Mohist village. However, now the Mohist family has been engaged to Princess Changle. I''m afraid it won''t work if they rashly use Yin moves. Even the aristocratic family leaders in Luoyang don''t agree. Without the support of those aristocratic family leaders, they can''t turn over the waves alone.


    But the Mohists were far away in Chang''an city. Naturally, people no longer care about it. Now the Mohists have entered Luoyang city with great fanfare, and there is obviously such a big storm in Luoyang. How can Zheng Chang look at the Mohists and hum coldly: "the Mohists are relatives of the emperor, so are my Zheng family now, and I can''t be afraid of him!"


    "Yes, there are no heroes to make Zhuangzi famous. Peony is a thing of Luoyang, but it is reputed by the Mohists! In fact, it is hateful!" people around agreed. People in Luoyang regard peony as their own bag. Now it is used by the Mohists to please Princess Changle, which makes people unhappy.


    "Yes, it''s my business in Luoyang. It should be hosted by people from Luoyang. How can we let an outsider like the Mo family do it? In my opinion, childe Zheng is handsome, talented and famous. He loves peonies, but he is much better than the Mo family''s people who flatter the princess. He is the best person to host the peony party."


    The people immediately brightened their eyes and nodded in agreement.


    "Lord Zhou has always come to persuade us to open the peony garden in response to the grand event of the Peony Fair. If childe Zheng takes the lead and several peony gardens are opened together, it will certainly overshadow the momentum of mojiazi." the eyes of the youth in Qingyi brightened.


    Zheng Chang suddenly became interested. Zhou daonong''s peony gardens had a wide variety, but several of them were not inferior to him. If they joined forces, they would surely surpass mojiazi in the number and variety of peony gardens, and have occupied the congenital advantage.


    And this time, they made the Mohists look pale without effort, and they didn''t use Yin moves. Even Princess Changle couldn''t help it.


    Zheng Chang pondered and nodded: "This plan is also feasible. The peony is extremely noble. It is the king of flowers. Some genuine varieties are even more valuable. It is a waste of peony to open the peony garden and let some mud legs enjoy it casually. From below, the peony is a precious thing, and can ordinary people blaspheme it? The Mohist uses the peony garden to please those mud legs, while Zheng does the opposite When we do, we will only open these peony gardens to scholars. We have invited scholars to recite poems against flowers in the peony garden. Only in this way can we set off the dignity of peonies. "


    "What Mr. Zheng said is very true." the young man in Tsing Yi nodded.


    These private peony gardens are some rare varieties. They are very precious in peacetime. Where are they willing to give ordinary people a visit? Zheng Chang''s proposal to invite scholars to visit the peony garden can be said to be right in the hearts of everyone. They don''t like to watch peonies together like some mud legs.


    Soon, the news of the reopening of several peony gardens in Luoyang city spread all over Luoyang city again, and immediately countless people clapped their hands.


    However, news soon came that these peony gardens were not open to everyone, but only for scholars, or dignitaries and celebrities. Ordinary people naturally had no chance to enter.


    "In my opinion, it''s still the benevolence and righteousness of mojiazi. The peony garden of mojiazi is open to everyone free of charge."


    "Hum! Let me go, but I won''t go either. Aren''t there just a few peonies? What kind of peony garden does mojiazi have?"


    "Yes, it depends on me going to the peony garden of mojiazi in the west of the city."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Luoyang City, citizens were indignant. Soon, Zheng Chang, the principal of these dignitaries, was also picked out by the public.


    "It''s just a loser of the Mohist school. If you want to compare with the Mohist school, you''re a clown." many Luoyang citizens quickly spread the gratitude and resentment between Zheng Chang and the Mohist school. They couldn''t help but despise Zheng open and despise him all over the city!


    In Luoyang county yamen, after hearing the news of Zheng Chang, Zhou Hongde couldn''t help roaring: "Zheng Chang, son, it''s not enough to succeed, it''s more than enough to fail!"


    He was determined to make the Peony Fair into a grand event like the Chang''an New Year''s Eve Lantern Festival. However, Zheng Chang was complacent and shut out most of the people. It was just contrary to his original intention. Can it be said that going to Zhuque street to enjoy the lantern would have to be divided into three, six, nine and so on?


    "Don''t be angry. Now the Zheng family has a background in the palace. It''s like the sun in the middle of the sky, but you can''t offend." the teacher on the side advised.


    After a long time, Zhou Hongde calmed his mind and said, "these aristocratic children are really worrying!"


    Compared with the Mo family''s method of turning stone into gold, these aristocratic children are different. The Mo family brings fame and benefits, and these aristocratic children can only make trouble and delay. No wonder these people can''t beat the Mo family together.


    Shiye advised: "don''t worry, dongweng. Peonies can be planted. We have the help of Hu daonong. Even if we lose this year, we can certainly expand the peony garden several times in the coming year. At that time, no matter how many peony gardens Zheng Chang and others have in their hands, we shouldn''t worry."


    Zhou Hongde nodded and said, "that''s the only way."


    In his heart, he also thought that the final outcome was doomed. The Mohist family had only one peony garden, while Zheng Chang had several peony gardens. I''m afraid it was difficult to compete with Zheng Chang. This time, the Mohist family had little chance of winning! For today''s plan, only slowly is the right way.


    Hu peony garden! No, it has been changed into Princess Garden now.


    Merton and Princess Changle were concentrating on mixing several liquids together, and suddenly a strong fragrance came to their faces.


    "Unfortunately, it''s too strong." Princess Changle frowned when she smelled the pungent smell.


    According to Hu daonong''s peony nectar formula, she and Merton use a variety of spices to make different flavors. However, none of them is suitable for ladies.


    "This is only the spice of Datang," he said. "The shopkeeper has collected the spices of the western region. Once the spices are sent, they can be successfully distributed."


    Princess Changle said proudly, "Meiniang can make hundreds of mistakes before she can make a silver mirror. Naturally, this palace can. This is just a trivial failure on the road to success."


    Merton couldn''t laugh or cry at once. He didn''t expect that the matter of instructing Wu Meiniang was so widely spread that even Princess Changle was happy. Soon the couple began to develop with great interest. It was not until Xu Jie came and offered the precious Western spices that they suddenly woke up.


    However, shopkeeper Xu didn''t only send spices from the western regions. There was also bad news that Zheng Chang had set up another mountain.


    "Tell the young master that Zheng Chang, together with Luoyang scholars, gathered several peony gardens to invite scholars to play, and openly fought against the young master''s Peony Fair." after learning about Zheng Chang''s behavior, Xu Jie immediately came to report it in a hurry.


    "Zheng Chang!" Merton frowned. This man was Zheng Chonghua''s brother. At the beginning, Merton didn''t study the Zheng family deeply because Zheng Chonghua entered the palace. Instead, Merton held high and let Zheng Chang go. Unexpectedly, this clown jumped out again at this time.


    "Young master, what should I do?" Xu Jie frowned. The other party''s peony garden was more than the Princess Garden, occupying an advantage.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it doesn''t hurt. Although this person deliberately makes trouble, he also indirectly opens a group of peony gardens, which will only increase the influence of the Peony Fair."


    "But..." Xu Jie said anxiously.


    He has seen the influence of the Peony Fair. When the news spread, the business of Mojia village immediately rose to a higher level in Luoyang City. If Zheng chang would seize the dominance of Luoyang fair, it would be too big for the loss of Mojia.


    Merton couldn''t help but sneer: "no matter how valuable the flowers are, they can only be valued by others. The greatest desecration of the flowers is the orchid in an empty valley and self admiration. Since Zheng Chang turned away the ordinary people, he was doomed to failure. How to threaten the Peony Fair."


    "What your husband said is very true." Princess Changle also said proudly. Although she loves peonies, she will not take them as her own. Instead, she is willing to open the peonies in the garden for everyone to watch.


    "That''s natural! And I''ve already got two hands ready for my husband. Now I''m afraid senior Hu is ready! Just a Zheng Chang is just a clown. It''s not a climate at all." Merton showed a trace of confidence.

 Chapter 760

    In the Princess Garden, Hu daonong is leading the children of the Mohist school to work hard.


    "Be careful, this is a very precious peony variety!" Hu daonongkou Center said painfully, directing four Mohist children to carefully remove a blooming peony tree from the four wheeled carriage,


    The four Mohist children worked together and carefully moved to the pit that had already been dug.


    Princess Changle and Merton just came in and saw this scene. They couldn''t help but be surprised and said, "you''re transplanting peonies."


    Merton nodded proudly, "exactly!"


    Princess Changle immediately said, "it''s just spring now. As the saying goes, planting peonies at the spring equinox will not bloom until they are old. If you transplant peonies in spring, you will destroy all these peonies!"


    "Ruined!"


    The four Mohist children trembled and looked at the peonies they had just transplanted. You know, master Hu said that these peonies are precious varieties. Mojia village spent ten thousand dollars to get the only treasures in the courtyard. Now they have been destroyed!


    Hu daonong and Merton looked at each other and couldn''t help laughing: "don''t worry, princess. The world often says that planting peonies at the spring equinox doesn''t bloom until they are old, because the technology of planting peonies before was immature. After the guidance of mohou, I finally worked out the method of transplanting peonies in spring."


    Princess Changle said suspiciously, "seriously, if you don''t succeed, this Peony Fair will certainly become the laughing stock of the world."


    Merton took Princess Changle to the side of the transplanted peony, pointed to the root of the peony in the deep pit and said, "my lady is worried. Elder Hu is an expert farmer. If you are not sure, how can you talk nonsense? Wait and see what this is?"


    Princess Changle looked intently, but found that the root of the transplanted peony had two feet of soil wrapped with layers of hemp rope and tightly attached to the root.


    "You have transplanted the soil from the roots." Princess Changle said with a trace of surprise.


    Merton proudly said: "For a long time, most people transplant peonies and uproot them. In this way, the peony flower roots will be damaged, which will cause the peony to wither or not bloom in the next year. My husband thought that in this case, he would simply transplant the soil from the peony roots together, wouldn''t he need to damage the peony roots? In this way, the peony can naturally survive and continue to bloom."


    Princess Changle suddenly realized that although she didn''t understand farming time, she also agreed with Merton.


    "Of course, it doesn''t mean that it won''t damage the peony at all. As for the follow-up work, elder Hu needs to work hard! With elder Hu''s farmhouse secret skill of cultivating peony for many years, I believe that the survival rate and flower setting rate of these transplanted peonies in the coming year are at least 90%." Merton said.


    "More than 90 percent!" Princess Changle was relieved.


    In later generations, the technology of transplanting peony in spring has long been mature, and the survival rate and flower setting rate of transplanting are more than 95%. As long as the peony seedlings are correctly selected, strictly protected in the transportation process of Peony Seedlings, and carefully managed after transplantation, transplanting peony in spring is also completely feasible.


    Hu daonong said solemnly, "without the guidance of marquis Mo, how can I summarize this method? It''s my honor to work with Marquis Mo!"


    He was infatuated with peonies all his life. Now he has finally summed up the method of transplanting peonies. How can he not be excited. Moreover, once the technology of transplanting peonies is mature, it is not a big deal to transplant flowers and trees in the future, and farmers can have another secret skill.


    Princess Changle nodded and looked at the busy Mohist children. She couldn''t help wondering, "how many peonies have you transplanted?"


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "not much, not much, just fill the four courtyards around the Princess Garden."


    "The four courtyards are full?" Princess Changle looked around in shock. She couldn''t help imagining how magnificent it would be if such a large area of peonies were connected.


    Merton smiled and said, "when the Peony Fair starts tomorrow, everything will be known naturally."


    The next day.


    It was just dawn, and the whole city of Luoyang immediately became a sensation. Everyone knew that today was the day when the Peony Fair began.


    At the same time, the private peony gardens of Zheng Chang and others were also opened. At the same time, scholars and friends, dignitaries and celebrities were invited to enjoy the flowers. The whole citizens of Luoyang were immediately divided into two groups: ordinary people flocked to the Princess Garden in the west of the city, and scholars flocked to the east of the city. They proudly went to the private peony gardens of Zheng Chang and others. When they saw the civilians flocking to the west of the city, they couldn''t help humming Sound, as if superior to others.


    Luoyang made Zhou Hongde naturally support Merton for his political achievements, although he had given up the Peony Fair in his heart.


    However, when he arrived at the Princess Garden in the west of the city, he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him. The whole Princess Garden suddenly expanded fourfold. The peonies in the garden were in full bloom, fragrant and flowery, and there was a whole sea of flowers. Even if he was knowledgeable, he could not help being shocked by the scene in front of him.


    "I didn''t expect that peonies were widely planted on a large scale. There was such a beautiful scenery!" Zhou Hongde said with amazing eyes.


    Seeing such a beautiful scene, Zhou Hongde was very happy. With such a grand occasion, this Peony Fair will certainly become a grand event in Luoyang.


    Not to mention ordinary people, they are even more like facing a fairyland. On weekdays, they work hard all day. They have seen such beautiful scenery in the world. According to word of mouth, a large number of citizens flock to the Princess Garden.


    In less than half an hour, there were already tourists. Fortunately, Merton expanded the area four times at once, which just accommodated so many people to watch. Rao is so, there are still many people coming one after another.


    "Come on, immediately transfer a group of Yamen servants from the County Yamen to maintain order and ensure the normal holding of the Peony Fair." Zhou Hongde took a deep breath and quickly ordered.


    Soon, a group of Yamen soldiers came in a hurry to maintain the outfield order of the Peony Fair. The scene was immediately orderly, and the Peony Fair was carried out in an orderly manner.


    "Mohou gave me a big surprise!" Zhou Hongde said with a smile when he found Merton who accompanied Princess Changle to enjoy the flowers in the sea of peonies.


    Mojiazi''s work is really authentic. He has only seen peonies of such a scale in his life. He never thought that once peonies form a sea of flowers, they should have such an effect. In this way, they can''t be compared with one or two rare varieties. Moreover, there is no lack of precious Peony varieties in the Princess Garden.


    "It all depends on the full support of Lord Zhou, otherwise the boy can''t complete these arrangements so easily." Merton Lang said.


    Zhou Hongde couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He didn''t know if he had helped. Just before, he had given up this Peony Fair, but he didn''t expect that the ink family son had a brilliant stroke to expand the Peony Fair by four times, which turned the world around. Up to now, he still feels unimaginable.


    "It''s a waste for Mo Hou this time. How about the extra money from Luoyang county government?" Zhou Hongde said with some embarrassment.


    Merton laughed and said: "Mr. Zhou, you''re welcome. This time, the Mohist village is not at a loss. To the east of the Princess Garden is the Mohist Food City in Luoyang. After visiting the flower sea, tourists can taste delicious food. To the west is the Mohist boutique, where all the exquisite Mohist goods are displayed. To the South and North are the exhibition places of Mohist and cooperative merchants. Why do these merchants want to take advantage of the wave of Peony Fair I''m afraid it won''t cost much for this Peony Fair. If we hold another Peony Fair next year, we''ll make sure we don''t lose. "


    A simple Peony Fair will not last long, but Merton directly combines the Peony Fair with commodity exhibition. Tourism and shopping have always been one. Once these merchants listen to Merton''s idea of the Peony Fair, they are excited about it, pay and contribute, and even contribute the peony at home. Of course, shopkeeper Xu is running, while Merton is not sad Is to accompany Princess Changle wholeheartedly.


    Zhou Hongde couldn''t help nodding and holding the peony party was naturally inseparable from money. He didn''t expect that Mohist Zi had solved the source of sponsorship. Wouldn''t he be impressed by such means.


    Until this time, Zhou Hongde realized how comfortable he was with the Mo family. No matter how difficult he encountered, he could do everything in his hands.


    "With the help of Mojia Zi, how lucky Su Luosheng is and how lucky Chang''an city is." Zhou Hongde sighed. Unfortunately, Mojia Zi will go back only after staying in Luoyang for about half a month. Fortunately, there are many industries in Luoyang in Mojia village, which is not broken.


    Moreover, Luoyang City has benefited immensely from a Peony Fair. Looking at the sea of people in the Princess Garden, Zhou Hongde secretly thought: "In one morning alone, I''m afraid tens of thousands of people came to enjoy the flowers. You know, the flowering period of peony is about half a month. If you calculate in this way, at least millions of people came to enjoy the flowers, which is more than the total population of Luoyang City, and almost every citizen of Luoyang came to enjoy the flowers.


    In the future, foreign tourists will come one after another, and I''m afraid the flow of people will be greater. At that time, I''m afraid this Princess Garden alone will not be enough to carry so many tourists.


    "I''m afraid this will be an unprecedented and largest event in Luoyang." Zhou Hongde looked at the Luoyang citizens who were still reluctant to give up even at noon. He couldn''t help being heroic and paid more and more attention to the prospect of the Peony Fair.


    In the peony garden of the Zheng family, there are many scholars here. They cite scriptures and drink and have fun. They are very natural and unrestrained. Zheng Chang occupies the first place and raises a glass for four invitations. Everyone around agrees with him, which is extremely elegant.


    However, when Zheng Chang was proud, he did not forget to pay attention to the Peony Fair of mojiazi. The news brought by the servant who went to explore soon shocked everyone.


    "What! The Princess Garden has expanded about four times at once!" Zheng Chang dared not buy the channel.


    The servant solemnly nodded his head and said, "the villain personally entered the Princess Garden to explore, and mojiazi bought the four peony gardens next to the Princess Garden and opened them all, all of them are peonies."


    "The Mohists are really rich and powerful!" Zheng Chang said gnashing his teeth. He didn''t expect the Mohists to buy Hu daonong''s peony garden. He didn''t say it, but bought four more peony gardens.


    "No!" the young man in Tsing Yi suddenly said, "where is Hu daonong''s peony garden the best? Where are the other four peony gardens?"


    "Yes!" other literati suddenly woke up.


    "I remember this clearly. Although some peonies have been planted in other houses, they are not large-scale at all, and they are not even valuable for viewing." a scholar who lives nearby said firmly.


    The servant shook his head and said, "gentlemen, the boy went to explore in person. These newly expanded peony gardens not only have bright flowers, but also have uniform colors, black, white, red or pink. The colors of each color are in one area. Everyone is surprised and sighed."


    Since Merton is a newly transplanted peony, he naturally pays more attention to the layout. Direct peonies of the same color and peonies of the same variety are classified one after another, which is the wonder of today.


    "How could it be!" they all looked at each other. In fact, I have believed three points in my heart. This is a matter in public. How can this servant lie.


    "How did the Mo family do it?" Zheng Chang murmured.


    He found that mojiazi was still so strange. He clearly occupied the advantage again, but mojiazi reversed the situation again. Although there were many private peony gardens, they were far away and did not scale at all.


    On the contrary, the Princess Garden of mojiazi was expanded four times at once, and its scale effect directly crushed all the peony gardens in Luoyang. No matter how many their private peony gardens were.


    "From the old man''s point of view, these four peony gardens must be fake!" suddenly a Zheng Florist bowed.


    "Fake!" a group of scholars immediately looked at each other.


    The servant who went to explore immediately convinced early: "in these four gardens, the peonies are in full bloom as usual. The boy saw it with his own eyes. How is it false?"


    Zheng''s Florist shook his head and said, "the flowers are naturally true, but from my point of view, these flowers must have been transplanted in the past recently."


    "Transplanting!" as soon as the Zheng family Florist said this, they suddenly realized that it could explain the origin of the Zheng family''s four flower fields.


    "But don''t you say that peonies are planted at the spring equinox and don''t bloom until they are old? The mojiazi should destroy these peonies for the flowering period of these days." Zheng Chang was shocked.


    Zheng''s Florist nodded: "Mojiazi wanted to please Princess Changle. He had to spend a lot of money to buy peonies. He just had to spend a few days after the Peony Fair. How could he care about the life and death of peonies? That''s why I said the four peony gardens were fake. Mojiazi''s wishful thinking was to let these peonies continue to bloom. However, he didn''t know how delicate peonies are. The transplant must be a serious loss, Let alone continue to bloom, in three or five days, these peonies will wither and die. "


    "The Mo family is so bold that they destroy the peonies in four peony gardens for their own selfish desires. It''s a natural thing." the young man in Tsing Yi angrily said.


    "The behavior of the Mohist school is simply immoral. The peony is my property in Luoyang, and how can it be ruined by the Mohist school." a group of literati angrily denounced that they had prejudice against the Mohist school. Now they heard that the Mohist school wanted to damage so many peonies, which immediately ignited their dissatisfaction.


    "We must make concerted efforts to expose the sinister intentions of Mozi. We should not only let the princess understand the villain face of Mozi, but also let the people in Luoyang not be deceived by Mozi." Zheng opened his face angrily and said that he looked like justice and wanted to ask for orders for the citizens of Luoyang, but he didn''t know that just now he disliked the citizens of Luoyang as mud legs, and the peony garden under his name also rejected the ordinary citizens.


    "Yes, we must let you expose the villain of the Mo family." the people were filled with indignation.


    Zheng Chang''s face was angry. In fact, he almost looked up to the sky and laughed.


    "Mojiazi! You still have today."


    Zheng Chang was ecstatic and said that he thought he had grasped the handle of Mohist school. This time he must ruin Mohist school.

 Chapter 761

    "Go! I''m going to ask for the peony today!"


    Zheng Chang took the lead. A group of scholars went to the Princess Garden in the east of the city, ready to question Mo Jiazi in public, expose his sinister intentions and expose the outstanding human face wall, so that he was completely discredited.


    When Zheng gondola and his party rushed into the peony garden with great popularity, they couldn''t help but go crazy with jealousy when they saw the huge crowd in the peony garden. If they didn''t find out this time, these citizens would be kept in the dark by the Mohist school, even if they stole the day in the future.


    "Mr. Zheng, please don''t embarrass us?" Zheng open and his party came angrily. Naturally, they alerted the Yamen who came to maintain order in Luoyang county yamen, and hurried forward to intercept.


    "Go away, I have something important to report to the county Lord, which is related to the dignity of Luoyang City." Zheng open pushed away the Yamen who came to stop him and said proudly.


    A line of Yamen guards did not dare to stop, so they had to retreat again and again.


    "Oh! What''s the matter with Childe Zheng? I''d like to hear it!" Zhou Hongde''s dignified voice came from behind. Zheng Tongyi and others came to make trouble. Naturally, someone had already rushed back to report to Zhou Hongde.


    Zheng Chang saw Zhou Hongde and said with great joy, "Lord Zhou, you have to decide for the peony in Luoyang!"


    "The peony in Luoyang is the master?" Zhou Hongde couldn''t help but delay when he heard the speech. He has solved countless cases in his life and has never broken a case for peony. Even the people around him look at Zheng Chang with the eyes of fools.


    Zheng Chang immediately felt angry. If Zhou Hongde hadn''t been here, he would have been angry on the spot. At present, he had to hold back his anger: "Lord Hui, when the students want to sue the Mohist son for wasting the flowers, they forcibly transplanted peonies and deceived the adults and the people of Luoyang."


    "Transplant peony!" Zheng Chang said, and suddenly everyone was in an uproar. He couldn''t believe his ears.


    Zhou Hongde was shocked in his heart and suddenly said, "you mean that these peonies of mojiazi were transplanted."


    Zheng Chang nodded solemnly and said, "yes, except that Hu daonong''s peony garden is the original peony, the other four peony gardens are newly transplanted peonies. As we all know, the best season for peony planting is autumn. Now, for his own sake, mojiazi forcibly transplanted peonies and deceived the whole city of Luoyang. It''s an unforgivable crime."


    "What''s more pitiful is that these peonies are not in flower time now. Once transplanted, the best result is that they will never bloom in the future. What''s more, within three or five days, the petals will wither and the peonies will wither and die. I''m afraid all the peonies in the four Peony gardens will be abandoned!" behind them, Zheng family flower farmers complained.


    "My Lord, we must severely punish the Mohists!" people in the scholars complained one after another. It''s not enough to calm the people''s anger if we don''t punish the Mohists.


    "Ah! There''s still this!"


    The onlookers suddenly burst into an uproar. Although they thanked Mohist Zi for opening flowers for ordinary people, the peony is the symbol of Luoyang. Mohist Zi destroyed so many peonies at once. How can people forgive him.


    And most of them have planted peonies. Naturally, they know the tradition that peonies cannot be transplanted in spring. They can''t help believing Zheng Chang''s words.


    Zhou Hongde''s face sank and his heart was tangled. Now the Peony Fair has become the pride of Luoyang. He didn''t want to let this hard won situation collapse. He couldn''t help thinking of covering the lid. Even if it was the peony transplanted by Mozi, he also wanted to deal with it privately.


    Seeing Zhou Hongde''s hesitation, Zheng Chang couldn''t help humming coldly. Since he came to question, he naturally made sufficient preparations and wouldn''t let the Mo family have room to turn over. With a big hand, four people came out immediately.


    "These four are the owners of the four courtyards. The Mo family bought the house from them. He must know best whether there are peonies in their courtyards." Zheng Chang gave a fatal blow.


    Zhou Hongde sighed for a while. Now even he can''t cover it up. Now the plan can only be pursued.


    "The four of you should tell the truth. If there is any lie, don''t blame our official for being ruthless." Zhou Hongde shouted.


    He was most afraid now. Zheng Chang slandered mojiazi in order to report his personal resentment, so he said a warning.


    The four original owners looked at Zheng Chang and Zhou Hongde reluctantly said, "if you return to adults, the villain''s house is an ordinary courtyard. Usually there are only a few peonies. Where are so many peonies?"


    To tell you the truth, the four of them have no intention of getting involved in this matter. First, the price of Mohism is very high, and second, the fame of Mohism and Princess Changle is there. However, Zheng Chang and others are local snakes in Luoyang City. They can''t offend and are forced to be helpless.


    Zhou Hongde frowned and didn''t know the truth of the four people''s words.


    The original owner of the north courtyard panicked and said, "please rest assured, my Lord, what the villain said is true. If the villain really has such a stunning peony garden, how can it be unknown? Not only can the villain prove it, but also our neighbors can testify that they have been a guest in my house, how can they know it."


    With a wave of his hand, Zhou Hongde immediately sent out a team of Yamen servants to invite the neighbors around him.


    "If you return to your excellency, there were not many peonies in these courtyards."


    "Villain, once stood in his own yard and saw with his own eyes that Hu daonong led the children of the Mohist family to transplant peonies."


    "Yes, I''ve seen it before."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the testimony of the neighbors around, everyone pointed out that these peonies had just been transplanted. Doesn''t that mean that the accusations of Zheng Chang and others are true.


    For a moment, the wind in Luoyang turned, and public opinion was immediately against the mojiazi.


    "The Mohist school is coming!"


    With an exclamation, the people immediately looked at Merton with complex eyes. It was this man who brought a peony party for Luoyang City, which made Luoyang''s reputation soar. However, no one thought that these peonies were just the prosperity in front of us, and would soon wither. Although Mohist Zi had made contributions, they could not let go of Mohist Zi''s behavior of destroying such peonies.


    "Mohou, what these people say is true? These peonies are really transplanted." Zhou Hongde said coldly.


    Looking at the expectant eyes of the people around, Merton said calmly: "how can a peony garden accommodate such enthusiastic Luoyang citizens? In order to let more citizens come to visit the Peony Fair, Mo decided to transplant peonies, which is the grand occasion today."


    "Ah! It''s really transplanted."


    Everyone was in an uproar and looked at Merton with a little more disappointment.


    "Hum! Mojiazi, it''s up to you to turn over this time." Zheng Chang was overjoyed when he heard that mojiazi admitted in public. This time, he must expose mojiazi''s hypocritical face and let him completely lose his face.


    Zhou hongdeton painfully closed his eyes. These young people are really hairless and can''t handle affairs well. He thought that Mohist school was always creating miracles, but he didn''t expect to be so eager for quick success and instant benefits. Mohist school only needs to wait for a year to lay out calmly. In the coming year, Luoyang City will be full of flowers.


    In order to fulfill his promise to Princess Changle, mojiazi took the risk and chose to transplant peonies. It seems that he has the prosperity in front of him, but he smashed the signboard of the Peony Fair and destroyed the good situation in Luoyang.


    However, Merton''s face remained unchanged and said, "of course, all this is not the credit of mo. the real hero is the farmer''s elder Hu daonong. The Mojia village should take the lead in transplanting peonies this time."


    Merton said, pushing Hu daonong behind him to the front desk.


    "First skill!"


    "Hero!"


    Everyone couldn''t believe it. Looking at mojiazi and Hu daonong, they suddenly destroyed the peonies in four peony gardens and claimed to be meritorious heroes.


    "Hu daonong, you hypocrite, you still claim to love flowers like crazy, but now you help the tyranny and destroy so many peony treasures. You are the sinner of Luoyang!" Zheng Huanong angrily scolded when he saw Hu daonong.


    Both of them are experts in planting peonies in Luoyang City. They have always been famous together and have long had gratitude and resentment. Zheng family flower farmers cultivate rare peonies to serve dignitaries, while Hu daonong is infatuated with peonies. How can they be willing to hand over their high-quality peonies to others? If it were not for the reputation of Princess Changle, Hu daonong would not be able to sell the peony garden.


    In order to curry favor with dignitaries, Zheng family flower farmers wanted to buy Hu daonong''s peony treasures. Hu daonong once sternly refused, and Hu daonong''s peony garden had several peony seed theft events, which were also related to Zheng family flower farmers. They were in the same boat. Now seeing Hu daonong involved in right and wrong, Zheng family flower farmers can''t help but seize the opportunity to fall into the well.


    Hu daonong looked at Zheng Huanong coldly and said, "it''s you, a villain who uses peonies to cling to dignitaries. Who told you that Hu destroyed these treasures."


    Zheng''s Florist looked ferocious and said, "up to now, you are still sophistry. Someone has witnessed you transplanting peonies. Do you still need me to dig out the peony book as material evidence, or do you have to wait until the peony flowers in your four gardens wither and wither three or five days later?"


    Now there are both human and material evidence. He doesn''t believe that Hu daonong still has a chance to turn over. Seeing that Hu daonong is about to suffer bad luck, his old resentment in his heart was immediately cleared away, and he looked at Hu daonong happily.


    However, to his disappointment, Hu daonong didn''t look panic at all. Instead, he said with an angry face: "I''m right to transplant these peonies, but who told you that these peonies will wither and wither in three or five days."


    Zheng family''s Florist proudly said, "isn''t this a clear arrangement? Planting peonies at the spring equinox, old age and death don''t bloom. This is our florist''s motto. Even women and children in Luoyang know it. Ask if you know it."


    Many people nodded when they heard the speech. This is a proverb for transplanting peonies. I don''t know how many people didn''t believe in evil before. As a result, without exception, they raised the peonies to death or didn''t bloom at all.


    "Before that, you didn''t understand the peony and hurt the vitality of the peony, so that the peony wouldn''t bloom." Hu daonong said proudly.


    "I don''t understand peony!" the Zheng family flower farmer was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Although he had a bad character, he also immersed in peony. Now Hu daonong said he didn''t understand peony.


    Hu daonong looked around and said forcefully: "I transplanted these peonies with the latest peony transplantation secret technology, which is the latest achievement of the farmers and Mohists. The transplanted peonies will not wither in three or five days, let alone damage the flowering period, and 90% of the peonies will bloom next year."


    "Peony transplantation secret skill!"


    "The latest secret skills of farmers and Mohists!"


    "Ninety percent of the peonies will bloom next year!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When Hu daonong finished, there was an uproar. No one expected that things would turn so well.


    Zhou Hongde was delighted when he heard the secret skills of the farmers and Mohists. He didn''t expect that the Mohists would fight back and make a secret skill of peony transplantation. If it was true, as Hu daonong said, these transplanted peonies would not only make mistakes, but have great achievements. Since then, the peony cultivation technology in Luoyang must have reached a new height.


    The people around were also in an uproar and questioned one after another: "farmers still have such secret skills. Why haven''t they heard of them before."


    "You haven''t heard that it was just developed by farmers and Mohists."


    "But will it work?"


    A young man firmly believed and said, "what is this? The grafting secret skill of mojiazi can make a tree bear different fruits, and the greenhouse can make people eat out of season vegetables in winter. In contrast, what is the secret skill of peony transplantation?"


    As soon as this remark came out, many people nodded again and again, indeed! The Mohist family has created too many miracles together with the farmers. In contrast, the secret technique of peony transplantation is not so amazing. This is also the reason why Hu daonong unconditionally believes that the 90% survival rate and flower rate of Mohist children.


    Soon, as everyone talked about it, the wind direction of the Peony Fair changed again.


    People were angry that mojiazi destroyed these peonies, but now there is a possibility that not only these peonies have not been destroyed, but also the peony cultivation technology to a higher level. Bad things have become good things. Naturally, people no longer blame mojiazi.


    Zheng Chang''s face suddenly sank, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart.


    Again!


    It was the same scene when he Luoyang aristocratic family jointly encircled and suppressed the Mohists. They clearly had an absolute advantage and the victory was decided. However, they were overturned by the Mohist village one by one.


    I didn''t expect that history would repeat itself this time. At present, Zheng open was unconvinced and immediately motioned Zheng''s flower farmers to continue to inquire.


    "I''d also like to see how magical the peony transplantation secret skill is!" Zheng Huanong gritted his teeth.


    When Hu daonong saw that Zheng''s flower farmers didn''t give up, he looked at Merton and said proudly: "if Hu didn''t demonstrate it in person, you would be dissatisfied. Now Hu happens to have a unique peony Wei Zi, which has not been transplanted, just to prove the secret skills of the farmers."


    "Wei Zi!"


    The Zheng family flower farmer was shocked and looked at Hu daonong in horror.


    People who knew flowers all around looked at Hu daonong in shock. Wei Zi was a unique product in peony. It had always been known as the king of flowers, and it was very rare. However, they didn''t expect to appear here. Hu daonong was willing to transplant Wei Zi with farm secrets, which immediately made people believe it again.

 Chapter 762

    "Well, I didn''t expect that we could see not only the amazing farm secret skills, but also such a treasure Wei Zi. If elder Hu really transplanted it successfully, I will be like the imperial court to ask for merit for you." Zhou Hongde said solemnly.


    The people around also shouted wonderful. They didn''t expect to see not only the amazing sea of flowers, but also the secret skills of farmers. They really didn''t need to go here.


    Zheng Chang and Zheng family flower farmers could not help gnashing their teeth. However, before the last moment, they would not admit their failure. However, when they saw a four-wheel truck pulling a huge peony, they couldn''t help sinking their hearts.


    "Sure enough, it''s Wei Zi!" Zhou Hongde saw the peony on the four-wheel truck. It''s medium high, semi developed, beautiful and generous. The branches are thick and short. There are several bright purple flowers. People can''t help but marvel at it at a glance.


    However, everyone is worried about this Wei Zi. After all, this Wei Zi is now on a four-wheel truck and has obviously been dug out of the soil. If the so-called farmhouse secret is false, this Wei Zi will be completely abandoned.


    "What a terrible thing!" Zheng''s Florist was distressed.


    "Wrong, it''s the old man. This Wei Zi is back in the sky." Hu daonong said proudly. With a big hand, the four-wheel truck opened in all directions, revealing the root of Wei Zi. However, they found that there was a huge soil layer wrapped, and the soil layer was wrapped by heavy hemp rope.


    "This is..."


    "Even a piece of soil has been dug!"


    "Isn''t the soil still falling apart? Oh! It must be the hemp rope wrapped around the soil layer that played a role."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone talked and suddenly realized.


    "This is the so-called farmer''s secret skill." Zheng''s flower farmer opened his eyes.


    Hu daonong proudly said: "It is well known that if the peony is rooted and transplanted, it will certainly hurt the vitality of the peony. Hu has studied the peony for many years and found that this is because it is not the thick roots of the peony that really absorb nutrients, but the small terminal roots. Once the soil is lifted, these terminal roots will be destroyed and cause damage to the peony. Now we will destroy the roots of the peony All the soil rises without damaging the terminal roots. The survival rate of peony and the rate of flower setting in the coming year are naturally higher. This is the latest secret of farm transplantation. "


    "How could it be so simple?" Zheng Huanong didn''t dare to buy a channel. Naturally, he could see from his eyes that this policy must be feasible. He didn''t expect that the secret technique of peony transplantation should be so simple. Why didn''t he think of it? If he took the lead in thinking that he would become famous today, not Hu daonong.


    Unfortunately, there is no if in the world. At this moment, Hu daonong has become an expert in the peasant family and was ordered by Luoyang to be listed in the imperial court. However, the power he pursues in his life is easily obtained by Hu daonong. How can he be reconciled.


    Hu daonong shook his head and said, "it''s not that simple. If it was so simple, I''m afraid it would have been known long ago."


    "Please also ask Mr. Hu to solve my doubts." Zhou Hongde asked for advice.


    Hu daonong solemnly said: "the reason why we failed to discover this method before is that first, we failed to discover the role of the terminal root system. Second, the root soil is extremely heavy, which is not conducive to soil and transplantation. Now with the thousand catty arm produced by the Mohist school, we can easily complete this work, and this transplantation secret came into being."


    Zhou Hongde looked at the kilo arm on the four-wheel truck and nodded. The root of this plant Wei Zi is a lot of soil. I''m afraid it''s difficult to transport by manpower alone.


    Zheng family flower farmers feel a little better. They can''t help admiring Hu daonong''s good luck and clinging to the relationship of Mohism. However, seeing the black face of their master Zheng Chang, they immediately put away their envious eyes.


    "In addition, there are ten core technologies for transplanting flowers. As long as we follow this way, not only flowers, but also other trees. Hu heard that the county Lord is going to afforest Luoyang. However, planting trees alone may take a long time, but if we directly transplant trees that have been growing for many years, we can certainly reap miraculous results in a short time." Hu daonong said solemnly.


    "Seriously?" Zhou Hongde''s eyes suddenly burst out. Before that, he had been worried that the greening of Luoyang city had lagged behind Chang''an City for one year. Only then did he strongly support Luoyang Peony Fair and prepare to save face. However, Hu daonong''s proposal just now excited him. In this way, the greening of Luoyang City can surely catch up with Chang''an city.


    "After the villain transplanted this Wei Zi, Lord Zhou naturally understood that even famous flowers with such harsh growth conditions can be transplanted, not to mention living trees." Hu daonong said, leading the people to open an already prepared pit in the middle of the Princess Garden.


    Merton and Hu daonong knew that the transplant of peonies would be discovered and questioned sooner or later. They had prepared for today''s event. At the same time, in order to publicize the secret skills of farm transplantation, they didn''t expect to use it so soon.


    Zheng Huanong was convinced of the secret of transplantation, but his eyes focused on Hu daonong''s every move.


    "If you want to have a high survival rate of peony, you should also sparse branches and leaves. Even if you transplant peony, no matter how much soil is Tuo, there will still be some loss. Some side details will be cut off to prevent consuming too much nutrition and maintain water balance." Hu daonong said, mercilessly cut off the Wei purple branches without flowers, and some even cut off some dense flower buds without flowering.


    The onlookers felt a pang of heartache. This was Wei Zi, a treasure of Luoyang. Ordinary people had no chance to see it in previous years, but now it was cut off by Hu daonong without hesitation.


    Zheng Chang could not help but signal Zheng''s flower farmer to attack, but Zheng shook his head. This is the usual policy of transplantation, which can''t be more correct.


    "In addition, we should also plant the peony in shallow cultivation. If it is buried too deep, the peony will not take root and will also damage the peony. Moreover, when transplanting, when digging the pit, it must be about three times the lump soil. When cultivating the peony in high cultivation, we must use the cultivated mature soil to realize the intention of changing the soil between the peony roots." Hu daonong solemnly introduced it, pointing to the excavated pit.


    All the people around me thought and felt enlightened. No wonder they often transplanted dead peonies. Compared with Hu daonong''s method, they were too simple and rough.


    "But you''ve dug a big hole," retorted the Zheng florist.


    Hu daonong showed a trace of pride and said, "that''s because there is still a crucial step before planting. We can''t let the flowers and trees sink, otherwise they will become deep planting. We can put some sand and stones at the root to prevent sinking, and we can also let the drainage and ventilation. Unless it''s rainstorm for days, we won''t drown the flower roots."


    "Put the stones!" the crowd watched as Hu daonong instructed the Mohist children to put a bucket of sand and stones into the pit. It was an unheard of operation.


    Only the Zheng Florist on one side was thoughtful. Once he transplanted a peony treasure Yao Huang. He thought he had done everything safe, but in the end, he was defeated. Now when he heard Hu daonong''s new transplantation secret, he suddenly realized that maybe he was defeated in this step.


    "After these preparations, we can transplant peonies." Hu daonong said solemnly, commanding the Mohist children to control the kilo arm, easily lift Wei Zi on the carriage and slowly put it into the pit. This process takes a very short time, is extremely relaxed, and does not damage the root system at all.


    People could not help nodding. With the tools of Mohism, it was much easier to transplant trees.


    "The next step is to fill in the conflict. However, there is a crucial misunderstanding here. I''m afraid nine of the ten people are recruited, and those who are not recruited are still lazy." Hu daonong rarely smiled.


    People were immediately puzzled.


    Hu daonong explained: "that is, when backfilling soil, we must step on it. Otherwise, if the tree roots and soil can not be tightly combined, it will affect the rooting. In fact, this statement is wrong."


    "Wrong!" the crowd suddenly burst into an uproar. You know, this is what countless people do when transplanting peonies. I''m afraid only a few lazy people won''t step on the transplanted roots.


    Hu daonong solemnly nodded and said, "yes, we just need to backfill the soil. If we are afraid of soil sinking, we just need to cultivate the soil at all. In this way, the survival rate of peony is higher.


    Zheng Jiahua farmer couldn''t help sweating. He clearly remembered that in order to make Yao Huang take root better, he stepped on the soil again and again. Now it seems that he stepped on Yao Huang one foot at a time.


    "It''s ridiculous. The peony just transplanted has no roots. If you don''t step on the soil, a slight breeze will blow it down, which will cause secondary damage and hurt the peony more." Zheng''s flower farmer retorted.


    People nodded one after another. The reason why they stepped on a few feet was that they were afraid that the newly transplanted peony would be blown down by the wind.


    Hu daonong showed a trace of pride and said, "so the next step is to fix the transplanted peony externally to prevent shaking and damaging the root."


    With Hu daonong''s command, several Mohist children came forward one after another. The long wooden sticks tied the trunk of Wei Zi, which had just been transplanted, and firmly fixed it on the ground.


    "External fixation!" Zheng Huanong was stunned. He never thought of such a simple method. "


    Other people also suddenly realized that these things were very simple, but no one thought of doing them.


    "Mr. Hu is really an expert farmer! In this way, there will be no problem in Luoyang Peony transplantation in the future." Zhou Hongde laughed loudly, and his heart was very happy.


    Hu daonong shook his head and said, "Peony transplantation depends on planting in three and management in seven. If you want this plant of Wei Zi to continue to bloom next year, you still need a lot of later management. Please see, Lord Zhou. If you punch holes in the root of this plant, you can make it breathable and humidified."


    Zhou Hongde followed Hu daonong''s direction and nodded when he saw a copper pipe quietly left by the children of the Mohists when backfilling.


    "In addition to routine management, daily watering is also the top priority. In addition to replenishing water outside the roots, it is also necessary to replenish water in the rhizosphere of peony. Even if it is even cloudy, it is necessary to keep out the rain to prevent it from retting the flower roots............................." Hu daonong revealed all the transplant secrets one by one, which can''t help ordinary people. Even Zheng family flower farmers are stunned if they listen to the book of heaven, Compared with Hu daonong, he doesn''t understand flowers at all.


    "Well, I''m an eye opener today! I''m sure to show the secret technique of transplanting to the imperial court. In this way, it will be a blessing for flower farmers all over the world!" Zhou Hongde''s depression was cleared away. In this way, the peony transplanting secret technique cooperated by Mohist and peasant families perfectly solved the problem of peony transplanting, which naturally did not destroy the theory of peony, not only did it not damage the reputation of the Peony Fair, On the contrary, because of the new secret technique of peony transplantation, the fame of the Peony Fair has been raised to a higher level.


    What he valued more was the importance of this technology for transplanting large trees, which was related to his political achievements. As a result, his eyes to Zheng Chang suddenly became a little more bad.


    Zheng Chang suddenly jumped in his heart. Zhou Hongde can stand firmly in the position of Luoyang order, but he is not an ordinary official. Offending Zhou Hongde is not a good end.


    "You son of a bitch, you should stir up dissension and deceive me." Zheng Chang suddenly changed his face and kicked Zheng''s flower farmer.


    "Ah! Young master, spare your life!" the Zheng family flower farmer immediately said.


    "My Lord, I''m also deceived by this dog slave. Only then can I dare to question the Peony Fair and ask you to observe it clearly." after Zheng Chang dumped the pot flower farmer, he wanted to bow down to Zhou Hongde.


    Zhou Hongde looked at Zheng Chang unkindly. He naturally knew that Zheng open was the main messenger behind him, but he could only point the spear at the Zheng family flower farmer on the side and said, "this man maliciously slandered the Peony Flower Club and had a sinister intention. Someone came to beat him up and drive him out of Luoyang."


    "Ah!" Zheng''s Florist was immediately blank, but he was ruthlessly dragged out by the Yamen.


    Zhou Hongde looked coldly at Zheng Chang and his sons and said, "peony is the symbol of Luoyang, and the Peony Fair is a grand event in Luoyang. No matter who dares to do anything harmful to the interests of Luoyang, I will treat them equally and punish them."


    Zheng Chang and others immediately jumped their eyelids and quickly bowed down to plead guilty: "villains are also from Luoyang. How can they do anything harmful to Luoyang."


    "I don''t want to hear any more oral promises. I want to see the actual sincerity." Zhou Hongde pointed out.


    Zheng was stunned, then woke up and said, "don''t worry, sir. After going back, we will open the peony garden of the Zheng family for the people to watch freely."


    However, Zhou Hongde was unmoved and looked coldly at the people next to Zheng Chang. You should know that Zheng Chang had more than one peony garden in his hand, and the scale of the peony garden of the others was not inferior.


    Several others nodded helplessly and said, "don''t worry, sir. We are also willing to open the peony garden for Luoyang villagers to enjoy freely."


    Zhou Hongde''s face slowed down a little., So many peony gardens are fully open, which will certainly make the Peony Fair better.


    Seeing this, Merton couldn''t help but show a bad smile and said: "several people have private peony gardens. It can be seen that they must be aristocratic giants. As the saying goes, once they enter the giants, they are as deep as the sea. I''m afraid ordinary people don''t dare to set foot in them!"


    As soon as he entered the rich family, it was as deep as the sea. Zhou Hongde''s eyes flashed. He almost fell into the stratagem of several people.


    Zheng Chang and others immediately hated. The MOH family was so hateful that they forced each other so hard. At present, they could only gnash their teeth and say, "when I go back, I will demolish all the walls like half of the mohou."


    Zheng Chang''s heart is dripping blood. There are many peony treasures in the peony garden of the Zheng family. They are most loved by him. Originally, they can only be enjoyed by him alone, but now they can only be viewed by others.


    The others were also in a state of mourning. This time they lost too much.


    Zhou Hongde nodded with satisfaction and said, "I''m very satisfied with your mind. I''ve heard that you have countless Peony Garden Treasures. The people will surely gather one after another. In order to prevent the people from crowding, I''ll send yamen servants to maintain order tomorrow to prevent chaos."


    As soon as Zheng Chang heard this, his intestines were green with regret. Zhou Hongde sent a Yamen to guard against chaos. I''m afraid it''s to supervise them.


    "Yes!" Zheng Chang said helplessly, so he had to leave in dismay.


    Suddenly, the people around burst into laughter, which was very gratifying.

 Chapter 763

    the second day,


    Under the supervision of the Yamen of Luoyang county yamen, the walls of several private peony gardens in Zheng Chang were all torn down, and for a while. Ordinary citizens poured into these private peony gardens, and the scale of the Peony Fair doubled in an instant, with a sharp increase in influence.


    "Sure enough, there are so many peony treasures in Zheng''s peony garden!" many flower lovers were surprised. Among several private peony gardens, the Zheng family has the largest scale and the most peony treasures. Although it is not comparable to Hu daonong''s peony garden, it is better in its exquisite design, most of which are treasures, but it has a different flavor.


    Therefore, the people who went to Zheng''s peony garden were also the most. They went to enjoy these peony treasures one by one. However, after a burst of curiosity, they soon felt tired and tasteless.


    Although there are many treasures in Zhengjia peony garden, it does not form a scale effect like the expanded Princess Garden. People who love peonies naturally love many treasures.


    But for most ordinary citizens, where do they know what is a treasure or an ordinary variety? After the baptism of the sea of flowers of mojiazi, these citizens have a much higher vision. When they look at the exquisite and insufficient atmosphere of Zhengjia peony garden, they can''t help but be greatly disappointed.


    "Still hiding and tucking in. How beautiful I thought it was?"


    "Yes! It''s far from the Princess Garden of mojiazi!"


    "Even if there are treasures, which one can compare with Wei Zi."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many people took advantage of the good fortune and returned from bad fortune. After seeing the large sea of flowers in the Princess Garden, they had been raised for a long time. Looking at these small-scale peony gardens, they couldn''t get excited at once.


    Compared with the scale, the peony garden of the Zheng family can''t even compare with the Princess Garden at the beginning, let alone now it has been expanded four times, and the difference is even different.


    In terms of peony treasures, there are countless treasures in Princess Garden, especially Wei Zi, which has just been transplanted. In contrast, Zheng''s peony garden is naturally inferior.


    At the beginning, it was crowded in the morning. In the afternoon, apart from some scholars invited by Zheng Chang, only a few tourists were left to taste there.


    Some people who love flowers want to see a few rare treasures in Zheng''s peony garden; others have seen the peonies in Princess Garden and want to change their taste; or a few people in the east of the city don''t want to go so far to the west of the city. Luoyang city is not as convenient as Chang''an city.


    Although Luoyang has opened more buses to Princess Garden for the Peony Fair, it is still in short supply and can not meet the demand.


    With the decline of the flow of people, the reputation of the private peony garden of the Zheng family decreased, and some gossip naturally spread to Zheng Chang''s ears. Zheng Chang immediately turned blue.


    "How could this happen!"


    Zheng Chang and others couldn''t believe it.


    They can''t imagine that the peony garden they are proud of will one day be despised by ordinary people. You know, these people can only sigh on the partition wall the day before, but they despise it today.


    Other people also turned blue and white. It was too fast. They were forced to open the peony garden. They thought they had received much injustice, but the reality turned around.


    "A group of unruly people are so ignorant that they are so easily fooled by Mohists." the young man in Tsing Yi said angrily when he saw that ordinary people are easily fooled by Mohists.


    Other scholars also nodded one after another. They thought that the peony garden of the Zheng family was exquisite. However, the Mo family made another trick. A large-scale attack made them powerless to fight back.


    "No, we can''t just be beaten in the face by Mohists!" Zheng Chang said angrily.


    "But our peony garden is not connected at all. How can it be compared with the peony garden expanded four times by mojiazi, not to mention the other party''s famous flowers such as Wei Zi as the treasure of the garden." the Qingyi youth frowned.


    "Then think about it. What advantages do we have? We are the people of Luoyang and the flowers of Luoyang. We must not let the Mo family be so arrogant in Luoyang." Zheng Chang roared.


    There was a sudden silence. The Mohists wanted to be famous. The scale and variety of flowers were better. With the support of Luoyang county government, they could do nothing.


    "By the way, we are all scholars, and reciting poetry against others is our strong point. We will hold a peony poetry meeting again. Can we take peony as the topic? Whenever there is a good sentence, it will spread immediately, and it will certainly attract people to our peony garden." a scholar in white suddenly said excitedly.


    The scholar in White said that he couldn''t help looking around complacently. He thought he would succeed for this. However, he found that everyone looked at him with a fool''s eye.


    "What''s the matter?" the scholar in white looked around.


    "What''s the matter? Don''t you know what Mohist school is famous for?" the young man in Tsing Yi said gnashing his teeth.


    "Ah!"


    The scholar in white suddenly woke up, and his face was ashamed. You know, Merton was not the only one who had ink skills. What really made him famous was his poems, from the first three poems on the frontier fortress, to the love poems written to Princess Changle, to the makeup poems, and even the recent ascent to the stork tower. Which one was not a masterpiece? What''s more hateful is that the Mohists were tireless in destroying poems, Not only did he use poetry to advertise, but he also wrote a lot of incomplete articles, which made people gnash their teeth.


    If they want to compete with the MOH family in poetry, don''t they humiliate themselves?


    "Can''t we wait for Luoyang scholars here to defeat the river dragon of Mohist scholars?" the scholar in white lost his soul and said.


    All the scholars were dejected. In the face of the brutal reputation of Mohist school, no one had the confidence in his heart.


    "As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. You are afraid of the reputation of the Mohist school. Xiaosheng is not afraid. He chants peony. Little brother, there is a poem that is willing to make a fool of himself in public." the scholar in white has a sharp rise in fighting spirit, lowers his head and sits at the desk, waves his pen, and sings a poem praising peony.


    "Yes!"


    After reading the unsatisfactory poems of the scholars in white, they suddenly woke up and shouted, "good poetry, good poetry!"


    The scholar in white also proudly arched his hands around and said, "show ugliness, show ugliness!"


    With the scholar in white taking the lead, other scholars also took action one after another. They either frowned and thought hard, or pretended to take out the already prepared poems. For a moment, they chanted poems against each other, not happy at all.


    Seeing this situation, the young man in Tsing Yi suddenly became more heroic and said angrily: "well, I don''t believe that the whole Luoyang literati gathered here. I''m afraid that the Mohists will become bigger if they want to do it. You''ll contact the predecessors in the literary world. This is related to the reputation of Luoyang. Naturally, we can''t fall without fighting."


    "Yes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward. Mozi can ask for a unique peony with ten thousand dollars. Zheng Chang is willing to offer ten thousand dollars to reward the excellent peony works. He has been famous for Luoyang peony, and second, to fight against Mozi."


    "Good! Childe Zheng is indeed forthright." a group of scholars said one after another. Many people immediately took part in such a famous and beneficial thing. At present, the four people actively contacted the literary giants or thought hard to beat the Mohist.


    "Since mojiazi held a peony festival, we will hold a peony poetry festival." Zheng Chang said with high morale.

 Chapter 764

    Seeing this, the scholar in white couldn''t help smiling excitedly. He went to the public to ask for the opportunity of literary experts and left.


    However, unexpectedly, the scholar in white, after leaving the peony garden of the Zheng family, turned left and right, saw no one around, and quietly came to the Luoyang county government.


    "Meet your excellency!" unexpectedly, the man that the scholar in white saw was Zhou Hongde from Luoyang. Could it be that he was the master of literature.


    "What you are asked to do has been done!" Zhou Hongde said expressionless.


    The scholar in white bowed his head and said, "Lord Hui, Zheng Chang is really not excited. He has invited scholars to hold a peony poetry meeting to save face and return to the city."


    "Well done!"


    Zhou Hongde nodded with satisfaction.


    If we let people know that the white scribe who was just indignant and took the lead in fighting injustice was entrusted by Luoyang, I''m afraid it will surprise everyone.


    The scholar in white hesitated and said, "I don''t understand one thing. Please solve it."


    "Say it!" said Zhou Hongde in a good mood.


    The scholar in white solemnly said, "the world knows that Mohist poets are unparalleled. In this way, I wait for Luoyang Shilin to humiliate myself. I don''t know why the county Lord wants to promote this."


    Zhou Hongde proudly said: "Humiliate yourself? Do you know the value of a poem by Mohist school? The stork tower has been abandoned for many years, but it is famous all over the world because of a poem by Mohist school. Now the Luoyang Peony Fair is at its peak, but it is only limited around Luoyang. Once the famous poems are published, it must spread all over the world. Who is the influence of the Peony Fair that I want to compete with scholars It doesn''t hurt to win or lose. As long as there is a good work coming out, Luoyang can benefit. "


    The scholar in white suddenly nodded and said, "Your Excellency is wise."


    In this way, as long as the two sides compete, no matter which side has a good work, the last beneficiary will only be Luoyang City, which is good for the Peony Fair and Luoyang City.


    Once Zhou Hongde was also a passionate scholar, but he has been immersed in the sea of officials for decades. Now he is a typical politician. In his heart, only political achievements are the most real.


    Today''s mojiazi is now the son-in-law of today, and his status is not inferior to that of him. Naturally, he forced mojiazi to write poetry for peony. For today''s plan, he can only use Zheng Chang as a bait to lure mojiazi into action. He doesn''t care who wins or loses.


    "The students know how to do it." the white scribe nodded and bowed back.


    Zhou Hongde just got up and came to a peony in the courtyard. The peony was luxuriant and blooming. It was a rare treasure and his favorite thing at ordinary times.


    "Come on, according to the secret technique of peasant peony transplantation, transplant this peony into the Princess Garden." Zhou Hongde ordered.


    The master came in a hurry. He was surprised and said, "dongweng, this is your favorite treasure. How can you send it out easily."


    Zhou hongdeton showed a mysterious smile and said, "I can''t cherish myself and enjoy myself at such a grand event as the Peony Fair. If I want to see it, I can naturally go to the Princess Garden. Under the cultivation of Hu daonong, this peony may grow better."


    "Dongweng Yingming!" shiye all thought, so he ordered people to transplant this peony.


    The next day, the peony poetry meeting of Zheng Chang and others finally began. Almost the literati in Luoyang City were moved by the wind. For a moment, it directly became a major event in Luoyang literary world, and many good poems came out immediately.


    With the fame of the peony poetry fair, the flow of people to Zheng''s peony garden has increased rapidly. Although there are not as many people as Princess Garden, it is much better than before.


    Even if some literary predecessors hold their own identity, or are unwilling to participate in it for fear of damaging their reputation, they can''t afford to plead hard, so they have to agree to write poetry. As for the younger generation, they go to battle one after another and think hard. However, there are many people and great power. From time to time, excellent works appear one by one, which immediately spread the city of Luoyang and become famous.


    However, with the like of peony poetry like a raging fire, Zheng Chang and others, who are so anxious, have no movement. They ignore the expectations of ordinary people. They accompany the princess of Changle to enjoy peony, or to make perfume, warm fragrant nephrite in their bosom, and the two world is getting on well.


    "The Mohist school hasn''t responded yet!" seeing that half of the peony festival has passed, Zheng Chang''s peony poetry festival has produced several excellent works in a row.


    However, the poems of Mohist, a recognized talent in the poetry world, have not been spread, which makes many people who are ready to watch the excitement disappointed. Even Zheng Chang and others don''t know whether they should be happy or lost.


    Even Zhou Hongde was puzzled. He had prepared the challenge arena, but the mojiazi didn''t take the bait. Zheng Chang and others didn''t dare to tease the mojiazi easily. They just closed the door to entertain themselves and increase the reputation of the peony garden of the Zheng family.


    In this way, the two sides have formed a situation in which the well water does not invade the river. Zheng Chang and others are naturally happy.


    Although Zhou Hongde was a little disappointed, he could only recognize it with a little regret when he saw the increasing fame of the Peony Fair.


    It''s night!


    After a while of lingering, Princess Changle collapsed in Merton''s arms, just in response to the poem when the waiter picked up Jiao and was unable to accept the new grace.


    "It''s said that the peony poetry meeting held in Luoyang literary world at the invitation of Zheng Chang is very powerful. Does your husband have any itching?" Princess Changle mischievously drew a circle on Merton''s chest, smiling.


    The roaring peony poetry will naturally be in the ears of Merton and Princess Changle, but Princess Changle knows the tradition of Biao poetry when Merton disagrees, so she can''t help but say something.


    Merton shook his head and said, "madam, you are too proud of your husband. Writing poetry is inspired. How can you open your mouth and come? We have just arrived in Luoyang. Where can we write good works for a while."


    But Princess Changle didn''t believe Merton''s nonsense. She couldn''t help her bright eyes. She glanced at Merton and said, "the poetry of the great Mohist school is well known all over the world. How can there be a time of humility."


    She is also a lover of poetry. Naturally, she knows that writing poetry depends on inspiration. Forcibly spliced poems will only make people laugh, but they are just ordinary people. She saw with her own eyes that she was standing on the zygomatic sparrow upstairs and opened her mouth. She couldn''t help being fascinated by the beautiful works.


    "Being a husband is not modesty. You think those poems are like cabbage all over the ground!" Merton laughed angrily.


    "Chinese cabbage!" Princess Changle was puzzled. She didn''t know the name of the dish.


    Merton covered up: "this is the latest winter vegetable developed by the Mohists. The yield is very high. Once it is successful, people all over the world don''t have to worry about winter vegetables anymore."


    Princess Changle didn''t delve into this, but regretted: "even if it''s not a masterpiece, if your husband has poems flowing out, it will certainly make the peony society more famous."


    The peony party is the best memory of her and Merton. She naturally wants to be perfect.


    Merton shook his head and said with a smile, "my lady is too anxious. Peonies bloom every year. As long as Luoyang regularly holds peony poetry fairs and invites students from all over the world to participate, there will be countless excellent poems in the future. The reputation of peony flower fairs will surely spread forever, prosper year by year, and our honeymoon trip will spread forever in Luoyang."


    Princess Changle dared not nod her head and said, "yes, but these Luoyang scholars are really bad. Compared with her husband''s poems, they are just different."


    When Merton heard the speech, his face said solemnly: "That''s why my husband can''t take over. You know, we can''t just leave alone. There are still many industries in Mojia village in Luoyang. Luoyang scholar forest is the leader of Luoyang City. Since I haven''t invited him to be a husband, I naturally don''t want him to participate. If he wants to move forward, I''m afraid he will offend people too much. I''m afraid he will offend so many powerful people in Luoyang rashly It will make it difficult for Mojia village to move! "


    "They dare, I''m here..." Princess Changle said angrily.


    Merton stretched out his hand to cover Princess Changle''s mouth and said, "you are a princess. Being a husband will not let you be in such trouble. Marrying you for your husband is not for your princess''s status and power, but for you. Even if you are an ordinary person, being a husband also guarantees that you will be as happy as a princess."


    Princess Changle was immediately moved, buried her head in Merton''s arms, blushed and said, "my concubine didn''t mean that, but regretted that she couldn''t hear her husband''s poems."


    Merton suddenly smiled and said, "you want to hear poetry. It''s very simple. I''ll recite poetry for you when my husband suddenly feels it..."


    When Princess Changle saw this, she didn''t know that Merton had several crooked poems. The poems on the wedding night made her blush when she remembered them.


    Merton said with a smile, "it''s different this time. This time it''s a serious poem."


    Princess Changle looked at Merton suspiciously. Finally, she didn''t stand the temptation of poetry and couldn''t help pricking her ears


    "The bright moon in front of the bed..." Merton opened his mouth.


    "Do you still say it''s a good poem?..." Princess Changle couldn''t help being ashamed before she heard a poem.


    Merton laughed and dropped the red curtain. The bright moonlight fell on the window and just reflected on two pairs of shoes, one big and one small, under the bed.

 Chapter 765

    There was no word all night, and the spring breeze filled the house.


    In the next days, Merton and princess Changle lived very comfortably. Sometimes they saw flowers in the Princess Garden. Sometimes they used the perfume of Merton in the house, ignoring the disturbance of the outside world and leading a sweet two person world.


    "Husband, how do you like the concubine''s perfume?" the princess of Changle took out a bottle of perfume and walked out of the house with a happy face, offering it to Merton.


    Merton rose and took the perfume, and smelled it a little. Suddenly, a delicate peony came to his nose. It smelled good and not pungent. It was not very different from the perfume of later generations.


    "It was a success!" Morton looked unbelievable. He still despised the passion of women for perfume. Merton only told the concept of perfume and was so quickly transferred by Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle nodded proudly, then frowned bitterly and said, "although it has been successfully developed, it is far from the lasting fragrance effect that her husband said.


    "It doesn''t hurt. If you want these spices to give off fragrance, you just need to let them volatilize constantly. Wei Fu knows that there is a good thing that is very volatile." Merton sold a pass and gave a few instructions to a Mohist child.


    Soon the son of Mohism left quickly. After a while, he hurried back and presented a small bottle. Merton pulled off the cork and suddenly a strong smell of wine came.


    "Is this wine?" said Princess Changle.


    Merton nodded. "Yes, the alcohol in this hospital is very volatile. If the seal is not good, it will evaporate soon. If you want perfume to last long, you need to volatilize, and alcohol is the best thing, that is, volatile, and the speed of evaporation is very moderate."


    There is alcohol in the perfume of later generations. Just like alcohol, there is no shortage of Mohist village. There are many hospitals in Mexico.


    "That''s not good! What I want is the fragrance of flowers. If I spray such strong wine on my body, others will think I''m an alcoholic!" Princess Changle looked at Merton suspiciously. If it wasn''t for someone else, she would think I was entertaining her.


    Merton burst into tears and laughed. "Perfume needs to be dispensed. Alcohol is only an auxiliary volatilization. It does not consume much. The real source of fragrance is these spices, which do not smell alcohol at all.


    Princess Changle was dubious. Under the command of Merton, she mixed it with a little alcohol, and suddenly a special fragrance came to her nose.


    "It was really unique! There was no wine at all!" surprised the princess of Changle.


    Merton quickly stopped her and said softly, "it''s too wasteful for you to use it like this. But I''ve carefully prepared a gift for you. I''m sure you''ll like it."


    Merton said, he took out a unique bottle mouth, gently twisted it open, poured the perfume that was in Changle''s hand into it, reached out the bottle mouth, and burst out a fragrant mist.


    Princess Changle greedily whirled in the mist and waved it with her hand. The fragrance overflowed between her clothes.


    "So amazing!" even if the princess of Changle is more quiet, she still can''t resist the temptation of perfume.


    The nature of Morton is a common perfume spray nozzle in later generations. This set of equipment is naturally common in later generations, but now it is extremely rare. Fortunately, Mohist village has already studied spray facilities, and after narrowing and improving, this is the crucial link in the birth of perfume.


    "This is the real use of perfume." Merton hugged the slender waist of the princess of Changle, sniffing the faint peony scent, and the alluring fragrance of the body.


    "Don''t make trouble! It''s still day!" Princess Changle immediately blushed and quickly escaped from Merton''s clutches.


    Merton laughed. Instead, he said, "I have allowed the Mohist village to buy Spices in large quantities. Once the Mohist village consummate the nozzle process, they can make perfume in large quantities. Once the perfume is listed, it is sure that a storm will be launched in Datang. By that time, the Red Cross will surely have a long business."


    The princess of Changle, who smells the charming fragrance, can''t help but nod. Such a perfume is not likely to be a woman''s resistance to her charm. Although she doesn''t care about money, it can bring huge profits to the Red Cross, which can benefit the people of the world, even if the Changle public can not refuse it.


    Merton and Princess Changle entertain themselves in the boudoir, while the Peony Fair in Luoyang city is more and more prosperous. In addition to the love of Luoyang citizens for peonies, many flower lovers from other places also flock to participate in this event.


    It can be said that there are many tourists in Luoyang for a while, and it is difficult to find a room in the inn. In addition, there are good works from time to time at the peony poetry Fair held by Zheng Chang and others. The whole Luoyang city is hotly debated, adding a lot of popularity to the Zheng peony garden. Although it still can''t compete with the Princess Garden, it can''t be underestimated.


    With the continuous advancement of the Peony Fair, the dispute over the king of flowers, which is most expected by the whole Luoyang City, is coming to an end, and the whole Luoyang city is talking about it one after another,.


    "In my opinion, it must be Wei Zi. This flower is a rare treasure in the world, and it is also a model of farm transplantation secret technology. It can be said that it is the most suitable to be used as the flower king of Luoyang." many people will recommend Wei Zi. After all, Wei Zi appeared in the Princess Garden for the first time, which caused a great sensation.


    "In my opinion, the peony sent by Lord Zhou is also a rare alien. The difficulty is that its flower buds are huge. It is even more gorgeous than Wei Zi. It is a strong competitor for the flower king."


    "There are several equally extraordinary plants............................"


    There are many treasures in the Princess Garden, each of which has a considerable number of supporters, which adds a bit of suspense to the dispute over the flower king.


    "The dispute over the flower king? So, most of the candidates are the peonies in the Princess Garden! But none of the peonies in our peony garden." Zheng Chang frowned in the Zheng family peony garden.


    The scholar in blue nodded and said, "in the Princess Garden, Luoyang people go the most, and naturally support more, and the address of the Peony Fair is also in the Princess Garden, so..."


    The scholar in blue didn''t go on. Zheng Chang naturally understood what he said. The Princess Garden occupied the location of the Peony Fair, and there were many natural admirers. Although their peonies were not inferior, how could they compete for the flower king so far away.


    "This is not to say that the Princess Garden has set up a peony king, and the Mohist son is playing tricks." the scholar in white was filled with indignation.


    Zheng Chang''s face turned blue. He opened the peony garden and held a peony poetry meeting. He just wanted to fight for breath. However, the most important dispute over the flower king was almost settled by the Mohist school. How can he be reconciled.


    "It''s not so easy for the Mohists to put the flower king in their pocket so easily." Zheng Changleng snorted.


    "Why did brother Zheng have an idea?" the scholar in blue didn''t understand.


    Zheng Changleng hummed, "our peonies are no longer in the peony garden. Naturally, they can''t compete with Wei Zi''s treasures. However, mojiazi didn''t expect that the peony transplantation secret skill he created would be used by us."


    The scholar in blue was pleasantly surprised and said, "brother Zheng means to move the peony treasures in the garden to the Princess Garden to compete with them."


    Zheng Kuang nodded and said, "my little brother has secretly searched for a peony treasure, which is not inferior to Wei Zi. He waited until the end to be the finale, and just brought it to compete with mojiazi for the name of the peony king."

 Chapter 766

    On the last day of the Peony Fair, the whole Luoyang City was moved one after another. Everyone knows that today''s highlight is the battle for the king of peony this year.


    Under the careful management of Hu daonong, almost all the peonies compete for fragrance and beauty. The Princess Garden is fascinating and beautiful, and every visitor is full of praise.


    Not only that, the other four peony gardens transplanted in the past also grew well, and there was no sign of withering at all. Once again proved the feasibility of peony transplantation.


    However, the most amazing thing is, of course, the peony Wei Zi. The trimmed Wei Zi still shows no sign of withering, even if it has been for many days. On the contrary, all the unopened flower buds bloom, which is particularly beautiful. Almost all tourists come to the peony garden to see Wei Zi for the first time.


    Coupled with several other exotic peonies, each has its own advantages and is a strong competitor for this year''s flower king.


    In order to let more tourists stay in Luoyang, Merton and Zhou Hongde consciously put the competition for the king of flowers on the last day, and let tourists choose at the scene.


    "Wei Zi must be the flower king. Today I vote for Wei Zi." a loyal fan of Wei Zi said excitedly.


    "Wei Zi is good, but after all, he has just been transplanted and cut a lot by Hu daonong. It has a little charm. In my opinion, the one moved from Luoyang county government is even better."


    "In terms of growth, the Princess Garden is the original treasure of the town garden. It has not been transplanted. It is also a treasure carefully cultivated by Hu daonong. It ranks first in the Princess Garden."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People talked and kept canvassing for the flower king in their mind.


    Although the dispute over the flower king has no substantive significance, it is just the fun of the Peony Fair designed by Merton to attract more people to give their precious peonies.


    However, this effect is unexpectedly good. Many flower lovers are particularly excited. Even ordinary people are interested in talking about it, canvassing for their own flower king one after another, and even meeting many people with different opinions. It is common to have a red face and thick neck.


    However, when they were happily preparing to run for the flower king in their mind, a news spread all over Luoyang at the fastest speed.


    Yao Huang, a newly transplanted Peony from Zhengjia peony garden in its heyday, came to participate in the flower king competition. As soon as the news came out, it immediately spread to all flower lovers.


    You should know that Yao Huang is not inferior to Wei Zi''s peony treasures, and the time to increase the selection of Yao Huang in the peony garden is just right. He has not pruned his branches and leaves, and the flowering period is in its heyday, which can be said to have great advantages.


    What made this Yao Huang famous was that several famous literary elders were convinced by this Yao Huang and wrote poems one after another. For a while, the famous flower masterpiece suddenly made this Yao Huang famous in Luoyang City, becoming the most powerful competitor of the peony king, and even a faint trend of other famous flowers.


    "Brother Zheng, don''t you say that you don''t compare poems with Mozi?" outside the peony garden, the scholar in blue looked at Zheng Chang and said, no one knows that Mozi''s poems are unparalleled. Now Yao Huang invited several famous literary elders to write poems for him. Isn''t this the reason for Mozi.


    The white haired literary elder stroked his beard and said indifferently: "Young people are worried about it. A poem is so easy to write. It has been carved for many days. Now we suddenly throw out Yao Huanghe''s poems. Even if Mo Jiazi has some poetic talent, how can he write a good work in a hurry. As long as it is after today, huawang is going to be settled."


    "That''s right! From my point of view, the Mohist school is just at the end of its talent! Looking at its poems, it''s true that the three poems of the frontier fortress, which have just started, can enter our eyes. Other poems are either crooked poems or advertising. Recently, I fell in love with poetry and wrote sentences that dare not enter the target love. It''s a waste of talent. Why be afraid." Another senior in the literary world hated iron but not steel.


    "Today, we will let the Mohists understand that there are people outside the people, and there are days outside the world. This is Luoyang city with outstanding people, not Chang''an who adheres to power." another old man in the literary world said angrily.


    Luoyang and Chang''an City have always had fierce competition. This competition is not only reflected in politics and economy, but also in culture. All along, Luoyang has a strong business atmosphere and active citizens'' life. It can be said that it has surpassed Chang''an in culture. However, Mozi was born in the sky, and Luoyang can''t breathe under the pressure of peerless masterpieces.


    Nowadays, in the Luoyang poetry society, as none of Merton''s poems came out, they gradually began to be impetuous in the hearts of Luoyang literati, and all kinds of comments that belittle Mohism gradually spread.


    Moreover, with the change of this atmosphere, even Zheng Chang could not help but be ready to make a sudden attack on the Mohist school. Of course, it was also inseparable from the constant incitement of the white literati in the dark.


    Moreover, Luoyang Shilin held a peony poetry fair, but it turned away the Mohist school with a famous poem close at hand. It always makes people feel guilty. Driven by various factors, there is today''s flower king dispute.


    "Bing Fayun:" we took the attack by surprise. Now we attack suddenly. I don''t believe that Mozi can compare with your predecessors this time. "Zheng open said.


    And this time he was not afraid of Zhou Hongde''s punishment. After all, they wrote poetry to make the reputation of the Peony Fair higher, which was also good for Luoyang. Moreover, this time he did not use Yin moves, but used Yang tactics. Of course, he only used a little art of war.


    Almost everyone was full of confidence and nodded one after another, thinking that they must win this time, giving mojiazi a blow.


    Soon, a group of literary elders wrote poems for the treasure Yao Huang, which naturally came to Merton''s ears at the first time.


    "Husband!" Princess Changle looked at Merton anxiously.


    Merton shook his head and said, "poetry comes out every year when peony flowers bloom. This is a good thing. It can make the Peony Fair famous."


    Princess Changle didn''t know the plans of these Luoyang literati. She couldn''t help hating and said, "these Luoyang literati are true. The husband''s words haven''t spread out. They have given them enough face, but she didn''t expect them to be so insidious."


    Now, Luoyang literati, with the help of the dispute over the king of flowers, suddenly pressed Merton for the palace. It was obvious that they wanted to take Merton by surprise. If you are not careful, it will certainly affect Merton''s reputation. How can you not help being happy and angry.


    Merton comforted Princess Changle a few words. He couldn''t help but say, "in fact, I refused to write poetry at the beginning."

 Chapter 767

    Luoyang citizens have a very rich life and are very keen on the pursuit of poetry. Whenever a good poem is written, it will be spread to Luoyang for the first time.


    When Zhou Hongde heard about the writing of poems by the predecessors in the literary world of Luoyang City, Zhou hongdeton was ecstatic. Before, the well water of Luoyang literary world and Mohist school didn''t invade the river, which made all his arrangements useless.


    However, I didn''t expect that Luoyang''s literary world finally couldn''t resist and wanted to make a sudden attack on the Mohist school. In this way, Luoyang will reap the benefits whether it is successful or not.


    In fact, it''s not Zhou Hongde. Even the citizens of Luoyang are looking forward to Merton''s poems. After all, Merton''s reputation is outside. Moreover, on the way to Luoyang, a song climbing the stork tower can be said to be extremely amazing. Countless citizens of Luoyang are looking forward to the poems of Mozi. However, the Luoyang poetry club doesn''t invite Mozi at all. I don''t know how many Luoyang citizens despise him.


    "Come, come, the poems of Mohist school came." suddenly a poem came out of the Princess Garden and spread all over Luoyang at the fastest speed.


    "The peony demon in front of the court is not qualified, and the lotus on the pool is clean and less affectionate. Only the peony is really national, and it moves the capital in the blooming season."


    As soon as this poem was published, it immediately captured the hearts of the people in Luoyang. You should know that peony is the most favorite flower in Luoyang. It can be said that peony ranks first in Luoyang. Merton forces peony and lotus. He praised that only peony is really National. It can be said that it is in the hearts of the people in Luoyang.


    "He is worthy of being the founder of the Peony Fair, and the Mohist school is indeed the one who knows the peony best." many Luoyang citizen readers'' well-known poems, listening to Merton''s praise of peony, instantly impressed Merton.


    "Only the peony is really national, and it moves the capital when the flowers bloom. This poem is not exaggerated at all. Now that there is a brick road, it is extremely convenient, but many flower lovers come to the capital." a person living near the Xicheng gate sighed that he has seen an endless stream of people coming to enjoy the flowers from Chang''an. Naturally, he knows that the peony will move the capital. What he said is true.


    "The Mohist school is really extraordinary. This is the best poem we have heard chanting peonies."


    "It''s really good. In contrast, those scholars in Luoyang poetry club are simply dry eaters. So many people write poems that are not as good as those of Mo Jiazi."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many Luoyang citizens talked about it one after another. While appreciating Mohist poems, they despised the group of people in Luoyang poetry club. Although many excellent works came from Luoyang poetry club, it can be said that there is a big gap compared with Mohist poems in front of them. Even the poems written by several literary predecessors for Yao Huang are far from this one.


    "Good! Good!" Zhou Hongde held the new poem in his hand. He was too excited to restrain himself. With this poem, the Peony Fair in the coming year will certainly go to a higher level.


    When the poem reached Zheng Chang''s ears, his face suddenly became gloomy. He gave up a lot of money to hold a peony poetry meeting, and invited several literary predecessors to write poems to cheer him up, but he was overwhelmed by a poem by Mohist Zi.


    Many predecessors in the literary world also have a bad face. Naturally, they know that this poem of mojiazi is really good. However, it is impossible for them to admit that it is not as good as mojiazi. At present, they are filled with righteous indignation.


    "I thought how talented the Mo family was? It''s just flattering and flattering to please the people of Luoyang!"


    "Yes, it is those fools who are attracted by this poem without connotation. I am ashamed to be with them."


    "Don''t worry, young master. If I wait, I will certainly beat the Mohist."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many predecessors in the literary world shouted that they either belittled the Mohists, satirized the Mohists to please the citizens of Luoyang, or boasted about how profound their poems are. The people of Luoyang don''t know how to appreciate them.


    Zheng Geng took a deep breath and bowed his hands to a group of scholars and said, "in this way, it all depends on you. If you beat Mo Jiazi this time and help Yao Huang win the position of flower king, Zheng must have a good reward."


    Everyone was immediately happy. The Zheng family is now a relative of the emperor, and the limelight is booming. I''m afraid no one can refuse to get the Zheng family''s help.


    At present, many literary predecessors and scholars frown and think hard, or choose words to make sentences. Soon, several excellent poems came out from the peony garden of the Zheng family.


    "Famous flower Yao Huangguan, Luoyang.................."


    They despised Mohist School and praised Peony''s behavior of pleasing Luoyang citizens, but they were honest and involuntarily inclined towards this aspect.


    However, although this move has the feeling of picking up people''s wisdom, it is very easy to use. A group of Luoyang citizens like this set. Slowly, under the praise of several consecutive poems, Yao Huang''s voice is rising again.


    In the Princess Garden, Merton looked at the poems of a group of Luoyang scholars in his hand, and couldn''t help nodding: "I have to say that Luoyang scholars are still many talented people."


    Princess Changle on one side said discontentedly, "it''s not just picking up people''s teeth and wisdom by imitating her husband''s poems."


    Most of the latest poems are exaggerated peony and Luoyang. Even the more exaggerated the poems are, the more highly praised they are by the citizens of Luoyang. A group of scholars in Luoyang see this wind direction, and they try their best to exaggerate.


    Merton looked at the dissatisfaction of Princess Changle and couldn''t help shaking his head and laughing. He naturally heard the meaning of Changle''s maintenance.


    Princess Changle said anxiously, "you still laugh. If you don''t think of a way, the flower king will really be contested by Zheng Chang."


    Merton didn''t panic at all. The old God said, "there are countless poems to boast about every year. I''m afraid they will disappear from the public and will soon be forgotten by the world."


    Princess Changle looked at Merton contemptuously. You know, the wind of praising peony was initiated by Merton''s song "appreciating peony".


    "Of course, except for the one for husband, this poem is destined to spread to future generations," Morton said confidently.


    Princess Changle rolled her eyes silently. She didn''t know where Merton''s confidence came from.


    Merton saw that Princess Changle didn''t believe it and didn''t explain it. He said in a calm voice, "it''s easy to break this deadlock. Zheng Chang''s villain gave Weifu a surprise, and Weifu would give him a diversion."


    "Oh! My husband has new poems again?" Princess Changle''s eyes brightened and looked at Merton with wonderful eyes.


    When Merton saw the eyes of Princess Changle''s worship, he immediately laughed and said, "the ancients were good at comparing beauty with flowers. They were afraid that they could not compare with those people in Luoyang Shilin if they had the help of the most beautiful woman in the world."


    Princess Changle was ashamed and said, "my body has already passed the wedding day. Where is the most beautiful woman in the world."


    Merton hugged the beauty in his arms, walked in the prosperity, whispered, "in the heart of being a husband, you will always be the first beauty in the world."


    At the same time, a poem by mojiazi spread all over the city in an instant, which once again detonated the dispute over the king of flowers.


    "The clouds think of clothes, the flowers think of looks, the spring breeze blows the sill, and luhuanong. If we hadn''t met at the head of the jade mountain, we would meet at the foot of the Yaotai moon."


    Once this poem was published, it was praised by everyone on the streets of Luoyang.


    In the peony garden of the Zheng family, the scholar in blue hurriedly sent this poem. His face was embarrassed and said, "brother Zheng, we''ve been tricked. Mozi''s poem of appreciating peonies entices us to write poems praising peonies, but it compares people with flowers. We''ve lost a lot in artistic conception."


    Zheng Chang suddenly turned blue and said, "it''s a good way for Mohists to attack East and West."


    He thought he would surprise the Mohists, but he didn''t think that Merton was the one who really experienced the war, especially what he could compare with on paper.


    "Brother Zheng, don''t worry. The poetry of artistic conception is our strong point. We will certainly be able to crush the poetry of Mohist school." the scholar in Qingyi promised.


    However, a literary elder, with a bitter face, said, "it''s too late. I''m afraid we''ve completely lost."


    Just when people were puzzled, two more poems came, which completely silenced Luoyang scholar forest.


    "A red dew is fragrant, and the clouds, rain and Wushan are broken in vain. Ask who in the Han Palace is like, poor Feiyan relies on new makeup."


    "Famous flowers enjoy the country and the king looks with a smile. Explain that the spring breeze is infinitely hated, and the Chenxiang Pavilion leans against the stem in the north."


    The Mohist school compared people with flowers. Flowers are naturally peony flowers, while people are naturally Princess Changle. Princess Changle was born in the palace. Compared with Zhao Feiyan, it can be justified. As for the king''s smile, Li Shimin''s view of her daughter is in line with the artistic conception.


    Zheng Chang''s anger could not rest and said, "it''s not just three poems. If we write ten or thirty poems, we don''t believe that we can''t suppress the Mexican family."


    The scholar in blue shook his head reluctantly and said, "brother Zheng, don''t you find that these three poems are all clear and flat, and they are combined poems. The first one is space, which compares Princess Changle to peony, the second one is time, which quotes scriptures to imply that Princess Changle has surpassed the beauties of previous dynasties, and the third one is to return to reality."


    "Yes, the spring breeze of the first song and the spring breeze of the third song echo each other from a distance. It is indeed a rare combination poem." a literary elder lamented.


    "Mozi is not only talented, but also deeply affectionate. We are convinced of our loss." the Qingyi scribe sighed.


    Immediately, almost all Luoyang scholars nodded and bowed their hands to admit defeat.


    So far, Merton''s three Qing pingdiao songs came out, and he pressed the whole Luoyang scholar forest with the power of one person.

 Chapter 768

    "I once again announce that the flower king of this Peony Fair is this Weizi!" Zhou Hongde said proudly.


    Suddenly, the whole audience applauded. Wei Zi''s fame and rising trend made him the king of flowers. Everyone was convinced. Even the rare peony transplanted by Zhou Hongde from the county government was inferior to Wei Zi. Wei Zi became the king of flowers.


    Seeing the long and hot atmosphere, Zhou Hongde couldn''t help smiling excitedly and said that this Peony Fair really surprised him too much.


    He thought he would regret that the Peony Fair didn''t stay. Who could have thought that on the last day, Mozi wrote four poems in a row, especially the last three were composed poems, which amazed Luoyang City. Over time, with the spread of these four poems, the reputation of Luoyang Peony Fair must be booming day by day.


    "Hu daonong, it''s up to you next. When Wei Zi is inoculated in August, I need you to cultivate more Wei Zi next year. I believe that one day, I hope to see not this one Wei Zi, but the whole peony garden is in full bloom." Zhou Hongde said.


    "Yes, old farmer!" Hu daonong said solemnly.


    Hu daonong has now doubled his worth. From an ordinary flower farmer, he has become a farmer expert and the founder of transplant secret skills.


    Ambitious Zhou Hongde has hired Hu daonong as a consultant to search for trees everywhere. Next spring, the city appearance of Luoyang will be greatly changed. By that time, Zhou Hongde, who has completed greening and the influence of the Peony Fair, will become the best capital for his promotion.


    "Of course, I want to thank Lord Mo and Princess Changle. These two couples came to Luoyang for their honeymoon and brought such a grand event to Luoyang. I thank Lord Mo and princess on behalf of Luoyang." Zhou Hongde solemnly saluted Merton and Princess Changle.


    Merton saluted: "Luoyang has outstanding people and beautiful flowers. It''s an honor for Mo to come to Luoyang all his life."


    Princess Changle also said in a crisp voice: "the palace likes Luoyang very much and will come to Luoyang often in the future. The palace hereby announces that the Princess Garden will always be free and open to Luoyang citizens. This is a gift to Luoyang on the occasion of parting."


    As Princess Changle''s words spread throughout the audience, everyone cheered. The Princess Garden has an excellent geographical location and a wide area. The land of Luoyang is no less than that of Chang''an city. Such a large place is a lot of wealth, and Princess Changle said that it would be open. How can such a mind not make people marvel.


    Merton nodded slightly and opened the Princess Garden for their common consultation. They often don''t come to Luoyang. It''s useless to keep it. It''s better to be a natural person. Moreover, this is also the end of their honeymoon trip, leaving full memories. Naturally, they hope that fresh flowers will bloom here.


    As for the usual care, it was naturally handed over to Hu daonong. I believe he must be very willing.


    As for Zheng Chang and others, after hearing the news, they suddenly turned black. They also opened the peony garden. Now the peony garden with wider area, greater value and higher value has been opened. If they want to close the peony garden, I''m afraid it will be despised by the citizens of Luoyang.


    You should know that the aristocratic family depends on reputation at this time. If it is despised by the citizens of Luoyang, I''m afraid the aristocratic family is not far from decline. Besides, Zhou Hongde is staring. I''m afraid it''s not so easy to close the private peony garden of the Zheng family for next year''s Luoyang flower fair.


    What made Zheng Chang even more disappointed was that this time he clearly had taken out such treasures as Yao Huang, and finally let the throne of huawang go to another house. It can be said that he lost his wife and broke his army. However, at the moment, no one would care about the ideas of Zheng Chang and others, and all were immersed in the birth of huawang.


    Zhou Hongde said in a loud voice: "there are millions of visitors to the Peony Fair, and all the restaurants in Luoyang inn are full. Thank you for your support and love. Let me get together again next year."


    Millions of tourists are Zhou Hongde''s exaggerated statement. In this era, there are no tickets. Where can statistics come from? However, the Peony Fair, almost the whole city of Luoyang, coupled with foreign tourists, is not far away, even if it is less than one million.


    At the same time, Zhou Hongde also really saw the influence of the Peony Fair. There are many business trips in Luoyang City, and there are countless original hotels and inns. However, the Peony Fair attracted too many tourists. Luoyang city is hard to find a house, not to mention the amazing purchasing power of these tourists. Almost all business trips in Luoyang city earn a lot, No wonder Zhou Hongde can''t wait to announce that a Peony Fair will be held next year.


    "I hereby declare that the first Peony Fair is officially over!" with Zhou Hongde''s order, the Peony Fair finally came to an end. However, the brilliance of this Peony Fair has been deeply left in the hearts of everyone.


    Merton and Princess Changle walk among the withered peony flowers and miss this little beauty. The Luoyang Peony Fair is over, and their honeymoon is about to end.


    "Falling red is not a ruthless thing. It turns into spring mud to protect flowers. Don''t be sad. With these falling red, the peonies will bloom more beautiful next year." Merton advised Princess Changle.


    "Yes!"


    Princess Changle put away her sadness, walked out of the Princess Garden, set foot on the carriage already prepared and prepared to return to Chang''an city.


    However, when the carriage was ready to leave, they found that many people had gathered on both sides of the official road to see them off.


    Although mojiazi and Princess Changle only came to Luoyang for more than ten days, they brought too much joy to the citizens of Luoyang. As a civilian, they may never have the opportunity to contact so many cherished peonies. The arrival of mojiazi and Princess Changle has changed this situation,


    It not only brought the Peony Fair to Luoyang, which opened their eyes, but also left eternal pride for the city.


    "Drive!"


    Merton and Princess Changle waved, and the carriage sped along the brick road towards Chang''an city.


    When they came, Merton and Princess Changle toured the mountains and rivers, walking and stopping all the way, but they consumed a lot of time on the way. However, when they returned, they naturally beat fast and directly used the day-to-day system of Mojia village. Even in order to let them return as soon as possible, this system was on standby throughout the whole process and seamlessly prepared sufficient horsepower for Merton''s return journey.


    Looking at the carriage galloping and the trees along the coast retreating rapidly, Princess Changle lay down in the window and looked at the beautiful scenery along the way. She couldn''t help remembering: "if only she could be like this all the time."


    This honeymoon trip gave Princess Changle too many beautiful memories. This life is much more interesting than staying in the palace. She really doesn''t want to end so soon.


    "If you like, we can continue to travel, travel all over the north and south, and enjoy the great rivers and mountains." Merton promised. This honeymoon trip made their feelings warm up rapidly, just like glue.


    Princess Changle was moved in her heart, but she firmly shook her head and said, "once in a lifetime is enough for such a honeymoon trip. We have left Chang''an City for nearly a month. It''s time to go back."


    Although she indulged in the happiness of travel, she never left Chang''an City for such a long time. Instead, she missed her father, Queen Mother and everything in Chang''an city more and more.


    "Hmm!" Merton nodded. "When the Peony Fair is over, I''ll return to Chang''an city immediately."


    "The new peony perfume that I have made is a gift for my mother, and I believe she will love it." Princess Changle could not wait to see it.


    Merton nodded. He believed that when perfume first appeared in Datang, there would be a storm between women. No woman could resist the charm of perfume.


    The carriage went all the way. When night fell, Merton and Princess Changle''s motorcade had arrived at the foot of Chang''an City, raised the flag of the Mo house, and the carriage passed all the way to the Hou house.


    At this point, Merton and Princess Changle''s honeymoon officially ended. They traveled 800 miles. It can be said that every place they went would be a sensation, and soon spread all over the world. In particular, Merton''s three Qing Ping tunes of the flower king dispute were spread to the whole world at the first time, allowing people all over the world to eat a large wave of dog food.


    Since then, honeymoon travel has gradually become popular in Datang and has become a necessary trip for many newlyweds.

 Chapter 769

    Looking at the familiar three storey villa, Princess Changle couldn''t help cheering: "we''re finally home!"


    They were tired all the way. When they returned to their new house, they collapsed directly on the bed. They looked at each other and smiled. Recalling their experiences along the way, they couldn''t help feeling all kinds of sweetness. However, they couldn''t resist the waves of sleepiness. They soon hugged each other and slept until dawn.


    The next day, when Merton and Princess Changle appeared in the palace again, the whole palace immediately caused a sensation.


    "Changle is back!" the news spread in an instant, and almost all the princesses and princesses were shocked. They chattered around Merton and Princess Changle one by one.


    You know, the honeymoon trip between Merton and Princess Changle is too enviable. The trip to Huashan, climbing the stork tower and Luoyang Peony Fair have caused more and more influence along the way, even the whole Chang''an city is shocked.


    The princes and princesses have been in the deep palace for a long time, and they are most eager for the wonderful world outside. Their honeymoon trip has the greatest impact on the princesses and princesses. Until today, they have found how wonderful the outside world is.


    "Sister Changle, have you really walked over the cliff of Huashan?"


    "How high is the stork Tower! Can you really see thousands of miles away?"


    "Peony Fair...................."


    The princesses almost kept asking, full of longing.


    "When you grow up, you can go and see it in person." Changle patiently replied one by one. She was the first princess. She had taken good care of the princesses and princes in the palace. They had a good relationship. At the moment, they were more than one month apart. Goodbye was a lot more friendly.


    "How long will it take to grow up!" Princess Pu''an said disappointed.


    In the harem, several of the eldest grandson''s legitimate sons are OK, and there are a few opportunities to leave the palace. Other young princesses and princes have no chance to leave the palace at all. They live in the palace all day, and are particularly curious about Princess Changle''s honeymoon trip.


    "Come on, this is the gift I brought you." Princess Changle distributed the specialty brought back from Luoyang to the princesses and the prince, and then she was able to get away.


    After sending off a group of princes and princesses, Princess Changle was relieved. Then she and Merton went to the Lizheng palace. The purpose of their entering the palace today is to meet empress changsun and Li Shimin


    After all, Princess Changle has been married for many days and has not returned except for three days. Now they have just returned from their honeymoon and naturally want to see their parents.


    "See your father and your mother!" Merton and Princess Changle said together.


    Knowing that Merton and Changle entered the palace, I didn''t expect that Li Shimin and empress Chang sun had waited in advance. Of course, Merton didn''t have this treatment. Li Shimin wanted to see his daughter.


    "Changle is back!" empress changsun got up and greeted her with surprise. Li Shimin was also happy. She was about to get up to meet her. Finally, she stopped modestly.


    "It''s been a hard month, but it''s been hard for Changle." empress Chang sun looked at Changle''s face and said painfully. This month is probably the longest time for Princess Changle and empress Chang sun to separate. Mother and daughter haven''t seen each other in recent month, so they naturally look very intimate.


    "The child is not bitter. I don''t know how much fun it is along the way?" Princess Changle said excitedly.


    She kept telling empress Chang sun what she had seen along the way. On one side, empress Chang sun kept nodding and saw the happy princess Changle on her face. She couldn''t help seeing that Merton was a little softer. The mother in the world didn''t want her daughter to be happy?


    Even Li Shimin could not help nodding slightly and looked at Merton with more goodwill. After all, Merton did all this, even if he didn''t do it in those years.


    "By the way! Mother, this is a gift from Luoyang! I believe my mother will like it." Princess Changle remembered that she had just taken a delicate bottle out of her arms and handed it to empress changsun.


    "What''s this? It''s so fragrant?" the empress changsun smelled the fragrance like flowers, but it smelled better than flowers.


    The princess of Changle proudly said, "this is the perfume that the child has carefully prepared for the mother. The mother has the symptoms of Qi disease, can not smell too strong, and the delicate fragrance that the child specializes in is not only obstructing the mother''s body, but it can make the mother grow fragrant everywhere."


    "Long, have a heart?"


    The empress of the long sun suddenly moved, and there were several women in the world who could resist the temptation of perfume. Even the honorable grandchildren empress was no exception.


    "Mother knows as soon as she tries."


    The princess of Changle taught by hand, the empress of the long sun used perfume, and the two of them quietly returned to the palace to speak private words.


    In an instant, only Merton and Li Shimin were left in the legislative hall. They were like secular sons-in-law. They stayed there with big eyes and small eyes. The atmosphere of the legislative hall was quietly embarrassing.


    "I haven''t seen your majesty for nearly a month! I''m very happy to see your Majesty''s health today..." Merton hardened his head to find a topic.


    This is probably the biggest problem between the sons-in-law of the world. It seems difficult to find a common language.


    When Li Shimin heard Merton say more and more, he couldn''t help but say with a black line: "don''t worry, I can''t break down in a short time."


    Merton choked, and the awkward conversation he had forced couldn''t go on.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton with dignity and said, "I heard that you have been in the limelight all month. I''ve heard of you in Chang''an city!"


    Merton has lived a good life in this month. Even his emperor envies him. He corrects memorials every day. He is too busy to touch the ground. The Mohists are good. They visit mountains and waters, climb high and look far, recite poetry against each other, and hold a peony party. Even his emperor envies him, which makes him endure.


    Merton immediately felt guilty and said, "Wei Chen has asked for leave."


    I think at the beginning, he asked Li Shimin for a month''s wedding leave to spend his honeymoon. Now he is naturally guilty.


    Li Shimin looked surprised and said, "Oh, you remember clearly. What about the things you and I told you to do?"


    "Ah!"


    Merton was puzzled and looked at Li Shimin. He had a great time in a month. He didn''t remember other chores.


    "When you built your new house, I asked you to build a dangerous bridge in Qujiang. How''s the process now?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Ah!" Merton was in a cold sweat. He was very natural and unrestrained in the last month. He almost forgot about the bet. He could not help but say, "don''t worry, your majesty. Weichen has asked the Mohist children to explore on the spot and take the lead in laying the foundation. It should have started."


    "Really?" Li Shimin snorted coldly, "as far as I know, it has been a month now, and the Mojia village has just dug several pits by the Qujiang River. This is the start of the construction. The descendants of Li Chun who made a bet with you personally command the bridge construction. After busy, the bridge construction project has made great progress."


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. The most important thing to build the bridge is to lay the foundation. Now the foundation of Qujiang bridge has been surveyed, and the next project will be greatly added. Don''t look at Li Yun''s taking the lead in starting the project, and Wei Chen promised to finish it in front of him." Merton said confidently.


    "I not only want a fast construction period, but also quality and quantity. Changle will stay in the palace with the queen these days. Now you go to repair the bridge for me immediately." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    Merton touched his nose and came out of the palace.


    After a while, empress changsun and Princess Changle came out and saw only Li Shimin in the hall.


    "Why is the father alone, Merton?" Princess Changle said curiously.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "Merton still has business to do that has been delayed for a month. He will let you accompany his mother in the palace for a few days. He will deal with these business affairs quickly and come to pick you up."


    "Oh!" Princess Changle did not doubt him. She went back to the palace today to stay for a few more days.


    Empress Chang sun couldn''t help but know the secret contest between Li Shimin and Merton and gave Li Shimin a white look.


    Li Shimin didn''t change his face and came up to surprise. "It''s so delicious. I wonder if Changle has any perfume that I can use."


    "Merton once said that there are men''s perfume in the kingdom of extreme West, but the child has not yet been deployed, and later dedicated to the father." the princess of Changle nodded.


    "Then I''ll wait and see." Li Shimin said with a smile.

 Chapter 770

    When Merton walked out of the palace, he didn''t "what about the Qujiang bridge that the Mohists majored in?" Merton frowned.


    Faberton''s face was bitter and said, "go back to young master. Young master is far away in Luoyang. Mojia village just does a good job in the periphery, and the foundation on both sides of the Strait has not started too much."


    "So, Mojia village has fallen behind too much?" Merton immediately rubbed his eyebrows in distress.


    Fubo solemnly nodded and looked at Merton with a worried face. You should know that repairing the bridge is the strength of Xiangfu''s pulse. Now Li Yun has an advantage in the project, and Mojia village is already at a disadvantage.


    "No harm! I want to go to Qujiang bridge to have a look in person." Princess Changle can''t go home for a short time. Merton has nothing to do. She happens to explore the enemy situation in person.


    Qujiang is the largest river in Chang''an city. Although it has achieved the beautiful scenery of Qujiang pool lotus garden, it is very inconvenient for the people on both sides. In addition, the original bridge has long been in disrepair, so there has long been an appeal for building a bridge.


    In the middle of Qujiang River, a huge construction site has sprung up, hundreds of workers are working in full swing, and Li Yun in white is waving in high spirits.


    At his feet, the foundation of a bridge has just been built., This will be the first bridge that Li Yun majored in. When he thought that his ambition was about to be realized, he couldn''t help but be full of pride.


    "Young master, I have a letter from home. I want you to go back as soon as possible." an old servant came in a hurry with a letter.


    Li Yun didn''t look at it either. He said proudly, "tell my family that I will go back when I finish building the bridge."


    This bridge is not only the capital for him to defeat Mohism, but also the place for him to show his ambition. How can he give up easily.


    The old servant was not surprised when he heard this result. The young master always wanted to take charge of the bridge repair. Unfortunately, he was too modest. Although he participated in many bridge construction, he didn''t have the opportunity to be the principal. Now he can finally show what he has learned.


    Li Yun was in high spirits. Looking at the workers at his feet, he said in his heart, "I''m afraid this is the fastest bridge repair speed in the world!"


    He is extremely rich with a budget of Wanguan. With the support of sufficient money and food, Li Yun''s bridge repair speed can be said to be quite fast, and both quality and quantity are guaranteed.


    "Although Mohist is arrogant, he has one advantage, that is, he keeps his word. As long as he needs money and food to build the bridge, Mohist village will pay money unconditionally and will not delay at all." Li Yun looked at the continuous progress of the construction period, and he couldn''t help feeling a little more good for Mohist. However, he immediately put the idea behind him. Mohist leaked his secret skills and changed his ideas without authorization, He is a sinner of Mohism. How can I be grateful to him!


    Suddenly, Li Yun''s eyes swept and he was stunned. I don''t know when a four-wheel carriage had stopped by the roadside. The window opened. A familiar figure was staring at the bridge repair site. Who was it, not Merton?


    Next to Mohist Zi is a familiar figure of Fu Bo. Li Yun has been to Mohist village several times to pay money. He is deeply impressed by this kind-hearted Mohist old man and will not admit his mistake.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Li Yun was stunned. He knew that mojiazi''s honeymoon trip, even in Chang''an City, was a sensation. Even as a man, he couldn''t help eating a wave of dog food.


    Of course, this is not enough to make him soft hearted. Instead, he relentlessly continues to work overtime, turning all the resentment of eating dog food into a driving force, and building the bridge with enough strength, which is the speed of the bridge.

 Chapter 771

    "Young master, is it the Mohist school who wants to spy on the young master''s secret skill of repairing the bridge!" the old servant exclaimed, looking at Merton with a bad face.


    Li Yun didn''t expect that Merton had just returned, but he didn''t wait for Merton to be proud for long. When he came to Qujiang bridge, the scene in front of him immediately threw cold water on him.


    "This is the Qujiang bridge to be built in Mojia village?"


    When Merton came to the bridge repair site of Mojia village and saw the river embankment that had just moved a little soil, a bad feeling came to his heart. He just boasted in front of Li Yun that there were a lot of projects to be completed for his Qujiang bridge, which simply didn''t start.


    I have just provided Li Yun with a kilo arm and pulley. I''m afraid the construction period will be accelerated by a few minutes, leaving him little time.


    "In addition, now it is the spring drought, and the water level of Qujiang River is the lowest. If it is dragged on, the rainy season will come in January, and it will be more difficult to repair the bridge." Lao Zhang, the chief engineer of the bridge repair, came to the bridge and said with worry.


    Merton nodded: "then speed up the construction period, lay the foundation first, and build the bridge with half the effort as the water rises in the future."


    At this time, although there were large machinery such as Mojia''s kilogram arm and pulley, the bridge repair still needed to be completed with the help of ships. When the water rose, the progress of bridge repair also accelerated, and even Merton had to admire the wisdom of the ancients.


    "Don''t worry, young master. Now our preliminary preparations have been completed. We can''t do anything but pile driving in the water and build piers as required by the young master." Lao Zhang was at a loss.


    If it was an ordinary bridge, Lao Zhang thought it was nothing. However, Merton''s request was to pile piles in the water to build load-bearing piers, but it was difficult for the skilled craftsmen living in Mojia village.


    Merton is not surprised. For future generations, it is also difficult to build a foundation in water. This is also the reason why most of these times are arch bridges. Some large rivers can only rely on boat crossing, that is, there is no technology to build piers in water.


    Merton looked at the slowly flowing Qujiang River and thought hard. Now he has no future pumping technology or advanced underwater setting cement. It is impossible to lay a foundation under the water.


    When Merton built the bridge for the first time, he encountered the greatest difficulty ever - piling in water.

 Chapter 772

    Underwater piling is a common bridge repair technology in later generations, but it is a difficult and even impossible task in this era.


    For a moment, the whole Mohist school was worried, but there was nothing to do with its skills.


    "Young master, why don''t we also build an arch bridge? With the existing technology of Mohism, it''s not too difficult to build an arch bridge. I''ve seen the bridge built by Li Yun, and it''s not difficult to beat him." Lao Zhang said confidently.


    Although Li Yun thinks he has mastered the most advanced bridge repair technology since Li Chun, he has fallen behind a lot in terms of Mohist technology. He is confident to surpass him.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Your Majesty ordered the Mohists to build the bridge not just for this Qujiang bridge, but for a wider and longer river. The Mohists can indeed build the Qujiang bridge with an arch bridge. What if the Weihe River, the Huaihe River and the Yellow River? Do they all use an arch bridge.


    Lao Zhang shook his head repeatedly. The arch bridge is only suitable for small rivers. If the river surface is too wide, there is no way to build an arch bridge. This is also the reason why large rivers can''t build bridges in this era.


    "But at present, not only the Taoist waidan sect has not developed cement that can solidify under the water, but also the silt at the bottom of the river is very deep. If the pile is forced, it is only afraid of the unstable foundation, it is impossible to set up the pier." Lao Zhang frowned and thought deeply. If the bridge body is unstable, even if it is forced to be built, it will be a waste bridge.


    "Since we can''t lay the foundation under the water, we can lay the pier foundation on the water." Merton suddenly had an idea.


    "Lay a good foundation on the water?" Lao Zhang looked at Merton strangely as if listening to the book of heaven.


    Merton smiled mysteriously: "in fact, the ancients have solved the problem of building bridges in the water, but we didn''t find it!"


    "The ancients have cracked it!" Lao Zhang was confused. The ancients already had a way to crack it. Why has he never heard of it.


    Merton smiled mysteriously and said, "do you know how Li Bing and his son built Dujiangyan?"


    When Lao Zhang was stunned, he suddenly realized: "water diversion mouth, flying sand weir!"


    "What is Feisha weir!" Fubo on one side didn''t understand.


    Lao Zhang tou explained: "it is said that when Li Bing and his son built Dujiangyan, they were faced with endless river water and were helpless. Finally, they built Feisha weir by filling pebbles in bamboo cages.


    Fubo suddenly said, "young master, what do you mean is that we also use pebbles to pad up the pier and expose it to the water before building the pier?"


    "No, it''s the Yangtze River with fast flowing water and deep water level. At the moment, we are just in Qujiang River with gentle water potential. Don''t use pebbles. Find me the strongest granite and polish it into squares or strips. As long as the Mohist machinery can be transported and transported to the greatest extent, we must lay a solid foundation. If this method is successful, it will be successful However, it will change the history of Chinese bridges, which will benefit the people all over the world, and the travel will no longer be blocked by rivers. "Merton said proudly, and directly ordered to overcome eternal problems at all costs.


    "Yes, young master!" Lao Zhang took orders solemnly.


    Although Merton''s idea is very rough and there is still a lot of preparatory work to be done, it is not impossible for the existing Mohist technology.


    With the arrival of Merton, the construction of Qujiang bridge officially began. With the strong mobilization ability of Mojia village, a large number of materials were transported to Qujiang bridge from around Chang''an city.


    Under the command of Lao Zhang tou, dredge the silt and determine the foundation. Every foot close to the water surface will be repeatedly tamped by the Mohist children inch by inch. Be sure to ensure that the foundation is firm.


    It can be said that the news of pile driving in the center of the river in Mojia village violated the principle of building a bridge. Such abnormal behavior immediately aroused the idea of the people in Chang''an and soon spread all over the city. A large number of people came to watch and talk about it every day.


    "Is it possible to set up piers in the river?" many people wondered.


    However, more people said with confidence: "it is impossible for others, but it is not impossible for Mohists!"


    The people of Chang''an City have seen too many miracles of the Mohist family. When they see the abnormal behavior of the Mohist family, they don''t have much reaction. Anyway, they just need to wait for the results. They believe that the Mohist family will certainly give him a surprise.


    "Building piers in the river?"


    The storm naturally spread to Li Yun''s ears. When he heard the news, he was stunned.


    "The Mohist school is nothing but a false name. How can we know how to build bridges! How to build piers in the river!" the old servant sneered and sniffed.


    "No! Although Mojia Zi has no experience in building bridges, there are many skilled craftsmen in Mojia village. They can''t be underestimated. Just keep staring!" Li Yun shook his head,


    However, he had a personal contact with Merton and heard all the miracles of the Mohists. Naturally, he didn''t think that the Mohists would make such a big mistake.


    The old servant said proudly, "so what? When it comes to building the bridge, the master is the best in the world. Which one in Mojia village can compare with it? Even Lao Zhang, who is known as the head of craftsman in Mojia village, should be willing to bow down."


    Lao Pu people have been with Li Chun for some time. They worship Li Chun very much. Naturally, they doubt the Mojia village like a dry duck.


    However, with the passage of time, with a large number of human and material resources in Mojia village, the project of Mojia village will work overtime soon! When the foundation laid in Qujiang River surfaced, the whole city was a sensation.


    "The Mohists really built the bridge foundation in the Qujiang pond." many people exclaimed. Everyone who has some common sense knows the difficulty.


    "What is this? According to me, this is probably the most surprising thing that the Mo family has done." more Chang''an people can''t deny it. It''s not surprising that the people in Chang''an City have seen what strange things the Mo family has done.


    Many people immediately came to the Qujiang bridge to watch the foundation that came out suddenly in the river.


    "It''s said that the foundation is all granite transported from Mojia village. It''s very strong. It''s more than enough to be used as pier foundation."


    "I said, if you are not sure, how can the Mexican family do it?"


    "From the beginning, I believed in mojiazi."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Almost everyone looked disapproving, as if all this was in his expectation. Only Li Yun in the crowd saw the abrupt foundation in Qujiang River. His eyes shrank and his face gradually became dignified.


    The old servant on one side sneered: "Young master, don''t worry. The young master has won the bet. The reason why mojiazi tried so hard to build piers in the Qujiang pool is that he can''t repair the bridge. In those days, the master Zhaozhou Bridge was twenty feet long and more than ten feet across the river. The world was amazed and praised it as the first bridge in the world. Today, the length of Qujiang bridge is similar to that of Zhaozhou Bridge. Mojiazi knows that he can''t surpass the old man My Lord, the pier is selected. In this way, the two piers can only meet for eight feet. The young master has won the true legend of my Lord. He uses a single hole arch bridge, which is longer than the Zhaozhou Bridge. This time, the Mohist school will lose. "


    Li Yun nodded silently. Since mojiazi adopted the pier, he would naturally want to shorten the bridge body. However, when he saw Merton''s appearance, some bad feelings always came to his mind.

 Chapter 773

    "What''s that?" Li Yun suddenly saw a group of Mohist children put up tall models on the foundation in the river, with thumb thick iron bars there! At the same time, ships of things like mud poured into it.


    "You don''t know that! This is the secret weapon of the MOH family to build a three story new house, reinforced concrete!" a idle man nearby said proudly.


    "Is it strong to build a bridge?" many people wondered. Everyone knows that what is needed to build a bridge is stone. How can this mud like thing support the heavy bridge body.


    "Is it strong?" the idle man raised his voice involuntarily and looked at the people with a look of contempt.


    "It''s more than solid. It''s as solid as a rock. In front of all the officials in the court hall, Mohist Zi personally admitted that his new house is the strongest and safest house today. The greatest hero is the reinforced concrete. The three storey brick house is as stable as Mount Tai. There is no problem in building the bridge.


    "Cement?"


    Li Yun can''t help but feel excited. He has naturally heard rumors of reinforced cement. The traditional bridge building natural stone slab has always been the best material is to mix glutinous rice with mortar to form high-strength glutinous rice mortar. This is the best material for building city walls since ancient times. Even Wanli long city also uses glutinous rice mortar. The Great Wall has benefited from this building material for thousands of years.


    However, Mohists and Taoists have developed a new building material, cement mortar. Once solidified, it will be as strong as a rock, which is much better than glutinous rice mortar. It is said that mohjiazi proposed to build Huashan Mountain and build Changkong plank road, that is, he proposed to fill the gap of pile driving with cement.


    Cement is not only as strong as a rock, but also sets fast and has strong plasticity. With the reinforcement structure, it can be said to be indestructible and can''t help but get Li Yun''s heart.


    "Immediately place an order with Mojia village and say I want to use this cement mortar to repair the bridge," Li Yun said firmly.


    The old servant hesitated and said, "but will the Mo family want to?"


    Cement is extremely rare and precious. It has not been circulated in the market at all. The old servant is no longer considering whether to use Mohist things, but whether Mohist village will cherish itself and not sell it to them.


    Li Yuan said meaningfully, "if you don''t try, how do you know that Mojia village doesn''t want to?"


    Since mojiazi forced him to use the most advanced equipment of Mojia, he was obviously full of confidence. Naturally, it was possible to provide him with cement. In addition, he could not be too careful in the face of Mojia Zi. In order to win the bet, he naturally had to use the best materials.


    The old servant had to nod helplessly and place an order with Mojia village with a try mentality.


    "What, Xiangfu bought cement from Mojia village?" Merton said in surprise.


    He nodded, and when the news of Xiang Fu''s purchase of cement to Mojia village came, he was firmly shaking his head in Changle. "No, women under sixteen years old can''t use perfume. When your birthday is over sixteen, your sister will send you a bottle."


    Princess Yuzhang left with satisfaction.


    "Sister..." Princess Yuzhang had just left, and King Li you of Qi came stealthily again.


    Princess Changle frowned and said, "you are a man. Why do you want a woman''s thing?"


    "I don''t want to use it myself, but I want to give it to my mother." Li Youzhen said.


    Li you, the king of Qi, had a close relationship with Changle on weekdays because his mother was a Yin imperial concubine.


    The princess of Changle did not believe in Li You. He knew that Li Youping could be a troublemaker in the palace when he was in the palace. At the moment, he frowned and said, "since you are filial piety, your sister naturally wants to help you. I will go to give a bottle of perfume to the empress goddess later."


    Li you''s smile, which he thought he had succeeded, suddenly solidified. He nodded helplessly and said, "thank you, sister Changle."


    Just as the princess of Changle was struggling to cope with the perfume craze for a crowd of harems, Liu E rushed to report: "Princess Royal, the concubines are in the palace again."


    "Ah! Merton is coming!"


    Princess Changle immediately looked happy and couldn''t help laughing. Naturally, she knew that Merton''s purpose in coming to the palace was to take her back. The previous two times had failed.


    Sure enough, not many times later, Merton came here with a pair of manly spirit and a look of never giving up until he took Changle back.


    "Madam, let''s hurry back and go now!" Merton seemed to have firm eyes, but he went to Princess Changle and whispered secretly.


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look and said, "there''s no reason to go secretly. Anyway, we should say goodbye to our father and mother."


    She is also tired of dealing with the people in the harem. She has long wanted to return to the Mo mansion. Now Merton comes to pick it up again and is naturally happy to cooperate.


    Merton took a deep breath and nodded heavily. This time, he must succeed, defeat the demon king and recapture the princess.

 Chapter 774

    "I''ll pay my respects to my father and mother!" Merton and Princess Changle solemnly saluted in the legislative hall.


    When Li Shimin saw Merton appear in front of him, he couldn''t help saying, "Merton, if I''m not wrong, you''ve entered the palace three times in five days."


    Morton said without shame, "my son-in-law is also eager to miss his wife. As the saying goes, it''s like three autumn after a day''s absence. In this way, your majesty will understand the mood of Weichen."


    "One day''s absence is like three autumn days?" Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing angrily, but he had to admit that every time Merton changed his poems without authorization, he still had some charm.


    Princess Changle immediately blushed and couldn''t help drawing a circle on Merton''s waist.


    Merton couldn''t help but take a breath. It turned out that this skill is regardless of age and status. Almost every woman can. It''s simply an innate necessary skill.


    "The child has been in the palace for many days, and it''s time to go back. If the mother misses the child, the child can also go into the palace to see the queen mother at any time." Princess Changle said.


    Li Shimin was suddenly hit by 10000 points. He suddenly felt that his beloved little cotton padded jacket would never come back.


    Seeing this, empress Chang sun hurriedly said, "since Merton is here, how can he leave in such a hurry? Let''s have a meal in the Lizheng hall today!"


    "Have a meal!" Merton was immediately flattered. He had eaten the food in the imperial dining room. However, this private banquet was the first time, and was personally invited by the empress changsun.


    "The son-in-law is better to obey than to be respectful." Merton immediately went down the slope.


    Morton still knows that his father-in-law can have a positive bar, but his mother-in-law can''t lose face.


    "OK, then the palace will let the imperial dining room prepare some dishes well." the empress Chang sun nodded with satisfaction.


    Merton was so treated by the empress of long sun. This honeymoon trip was of course a success. No one could see Merton''s extreme care for the princess of Changle, let alone the perfume that came back as a gift, but also pleased the eldest grandson.


    Although Li Shimin still doesn''t deal with Merton, he also knows that he can only let go of the water thrown by his married daughter, and the eldest grandson queen has opened her mouth. He still wants to give face.


    Soon, with the order of empress Chang sun, the imperial dining room was busy quickly, and Merton let them


    "It is rumored that your new Qujiang bridge has built piers in the river?" Li Shimin asked. Merton''s construction of piers in the river has long been popular in Chang''an city. Li Shimin naturally heard of it.


    "Is there such a thing?" empress Chang sun could not help but wonder.


    "Really?" Merton nodded and admitted without hesitation.


    Li Shimin said with a black line on his face, "this is your Mohist bridge building technology. A small Qujiang bridge costs people and money."


    Although he doesn''t know how to build bridges, although the previous Qujiang bridge is an arch bridge, which directly crosses both banks, it can''t be used to build a pier in the river. In Li Shimin''s view, it''s a waste to use such important reinforcement and cement there.


    "Father, Merton''s move must have deep meaning." Princess Changle defended Merton.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "I don''t see any deep meaning."


    Merton stopped Princess Changle from defending again and took a deep breath: "my son-in-law believes that the length of the arch bridge can cross the river like Zhaozhou Bridge is close to the limit of the arch bridge. Even if future generations improve and the technology is advanced, it can''t surpass Zhaozhou Bridge."


    Li Shimin frowned and asked, "not even steel and cement?"


    He had great hopes for steel and cement, but he didn''t expect to hear the bad news in Merton''s mouth.


    Merton shook his head firmly and said, "although it is stronger, it is also extremely limited, and the reinforced concrete itself is extremely heavy. Once the span is too long, the bridge body will not be able to bear it. Over time, there will be a disaster and repeat the tragedy of the last Qujiang Bridge."


    The last Qujiang bridge was damaged in a short time because of its large span and the lack of Li Chun''s technology. Only then did Merton repair the bridge today.


    Li Shimin suddenly said, "that''s why you built piers in Qujiang River."


    Merton still shook his head and said, "not so. If you build an arch bridge on the Qujiang River, the use of reinforced cement is naturally enough. However, what my son-in-law wants to conquer is not just the Qujiang River, but the Weihe River and the Yellow river wider than the Qujiang River! This Qujiang Bridge is just my son-in-law''s experiment."


    Once Merton talks about ink technology, his body will radiate a light of self-confidence, which people can''t help being attracted.


    "Test object?" Li Shimin and empress Chang sun looked at Merton with surprised eyes. Merton tried his best to set up a pier in Qujiang River. It was too expensive to test the new bridge repair technology.


    "That''s right! As long as the test of Qujiang bridge is successful, the Mohists have successfully summarized the technology of building piers in the river, even if the cost is more, it is worth it.


    Your majesty can think that even for a wider River, as long as piers are built in the river in the dry season, several feet apart across the whole river, and then the bridge deck is paved on the foundation of these piers, before long, a bridge will span the whole two banks, and the river that could not be built is no longer an obstacle. When the long-distance people reach the river bank, they don''t need to get off and take a boat to cross the river. They just need to drive across the bridge. It took an hour to cross the river, but now it takes only a quarter of an hour. " Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin immediately breathed and was shocked by the prospect described by Merton. Anyone knows that the advantage of bridge ferry is too great compared with boat ferry.


    Empress Chang sun couldn''t help but see that it was impossible to build an arch bridge on the too wide river, but Merton was ingenious and divided a long bridge into several small bridges. In this way, the difficulty of building a bridge was reduced several times at once. In this way, as long as bridge piers could be built in the river, even the widest river could certainly build a bridge, Building piers in the river is indeed a top priority.


    "Are you sure you can build piers in the Weihe River?" Li Shimin said.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "Qujiang bridge is completed. There is no difficulty in building piers in the dry season of Weihe River."


    "What about the Yellow River?" Li Shimin asked eagerly, suppressing his heartbeat. "


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "the middle of the Yellow River is full of silt. It can be said that it is very difficult, but the water level in the dry season is not high. If we continue to accumulate pier construction technology, my son-in-law is confident to overcome these problems."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. If Merton answered, he would not believe it. However, he believed that once Datang mastered the technology of building piers in the river, it was not impossible to build a bridge across the Yellow River, and Merton''s idea would come true one day.

 Chapter 775

    "So, with the technology of building piers in the river, it won''t be long before the Tang Dynasty will conquer the north and south of the river and the natural graben will become a thoroughfare." empress Chang Sun said with joy on her face.


    Merton shook his head bitterly and said, "back to the queen, with the existing technology, it is only possible to build a bridge in the Yellow River. As for the Yangtze River, even in the dry season, there is a water level of two or three feet deep, so it is impossible to build piers. Therefore, my son-in-law is really powerless to build a bridge in the Yangtze River."


    Merton didn''t lie about this. Even the Yellow River will have the chance to cut off the flow once in a century. Even if he can''t conquer the Yellow River Bridge in peacetime, there will be hope when the Yellow River cuts off. However, the water level of the Yangtze River is very deep, even in the dry season. Without modern equipment, it is impossible to build a bridge on the Yangtze River.


    "Ah!" the eldest grandson queen immediately looked disappointed.


    Princess Changle quickly comforted, "don''t worry, my mother. Although I can''t build a bridge over the Yangtze River now, my daughter believes that one day my Datang will be able to build a bridge over the Yangtze River."


    Merton nodded: "although we can''t do it with the current ink technology, our direction is right. Whenever we build a bridge on the Yangtze River, building piers is the top priority. With the continuous progress of ink technology, my son-in-law believes that this day will come."


    Empress Chang sun''s mood improved slightly. Now there are rivers in the whole Tang Dynasty, and bridges can be built. It''s a great pity that the Yangtze River blocks the north and south.


    Even Li Shimin can''t help regretting that he failed to complete the first World War, which makes him a little depressed.


    Merton suddenly had an idea and said, "although it is impossible to build a bridge on the Yangtze River at present, my son-in-law believes that there is a substitute comparable to the bridge, which may solve the dilemma of blocking traffic on the Yangtze River."


    "Oh!" Li Shimin and empress Chang sun looked at each other with great interest.


    "Ferry!" Morton said solemnly.


    "Ferry, what is ferry? I''ve only heard of ferry." Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton explained: "The ferry can only ferry people or carry a small amount of goods. In this way, it is very inconvenient to load and unload. However, the ferry is not. The bow is flat, flat with the ferry. The carriage is directly driven to the ship, and the carriage and goods are directly transported to the opposite bank. In this way, the carriage does not need loading and unloading. After arriving at the opposite bank, you just need to put on horses and start directly."


    "It''s really a wonderful method!" empress Chang sun exclaimed. In this way, it would save a lot of time.


    Although Li Shimin was excited, he continued to question: "if you can transport goods with cars, this ferry must be huge. The Yangtze River is in a hurry. I''m afraid there are no sails and oars to row over."


    "It''s simple. We just need to put the opposite wharf a few miles downstream. Take the Yangtze River as an example. We build a West ferry at the upstream of the south bank. After the West ferry is fully loaded, the ferry goes downstream, and finally stops at the North ferry a few miles away. After emptying the carriages on the ferry, we fill the carriages and goods of the ferry again, and continue to go downstream at the North ferry The East ferry, which is several miles away from the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, will reach the shore. In this way, we only need to build three ferries in the East, West and North at the Yangtze River fortress. "Merton put his ideas out completely.


    Princess Changle wondered, "what if the ferry reaches the East ferry?"


    Merton explained with a smile: "when the ferry arrives at the East ferry, the task of this round is over. You can sail up the current to the West ferry and wait for the next ferry again. If the wind direction is wrong, the trackers on the shore can also pull back to the West ferry."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding. In this era, trackers are not uncommon, especially in many sections of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal. According to Merton''s idea, it''s only more than ten miles from the East ferry to the West ferry. It''s still empty and not too difficult.


    Empress Chang sun suddenly realized that the ferry was indeed much more convenient than the previous ferry. Although it was not as convenient as the bridge, it was much better than the previous ferry.


    "What we need now is some larger and safer ferries. I believe this problem will not defeat the shipping Secretary of Datang," Morton said confidently.


    "This is nature!" Li Shimin said proudly.


    In the Treasury of the Tang Dynasty, there are many dragon boat drawings of Yang Guang''s trip to the south of the Yangtze River. With these drawings as a reference, he believes that the ferry envisaged by Merton will soon appear on the Yangtze River.


    "In this way, over time, we will have a smooth road in the Tang Dynasty, and the people all over the world will no longer have to be blocked by the rivers. Merton can make great achievements." the empress changsun said with a happy face.


    Even Li Shimin had to admit that Merton really had two skills, and three or two times solved the problems that plagued all dynasties.


    Princess Changle looked at Merton with admiration, and her face was proud.


    "The queen doesn''t need to praise him. With his tired and lazy character, she can''t point her tail up to heaven." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    Merton said with a smile, "my son-in-law is indeed a tired and lazy character, but it is not a disadvantage, but an advantage."


    "Merit!" Li Shimin said with a quick smile, "I''ve never seen such a generous person."


    Merton held his head high and said impolitely: "My son-in-law believes that laziness is an advantage because the progress of the world is driven by lazy people from generation to generation. People are tired of walking, so lazy people invented cars, and people are tired of working, so they invented various tools. Even in the Mohist R & D department, in order not to take stairs, they specially developed elevator, so they can go upstairs and downstairs without climbing stairs ¡­¡­¡±


    "Er, er..." Li Shimin and others stared at Merton''s serious nonsense and wanted to refute it, but they found that what Merton said was somewhat unreasonable.


    "So you Mohists are all lazy people," Li Shimin asked.


    Merton said without shame: "of course, the children of the Mohist school are not lazy. The Mohist school develops ink technology not because of laziness, but to save more time to do more work more efficiently. Therefore, the invention of the Mohist school is not because of laziness, but to be more diligent.


    However, lazy people are the beneficiaries of ink technology. It is with this batch of "lazy people" that ink technology has a living space and a foothold. "


    Although Merton''s words are contradictory, Li Shimin understands what they mean. People all like leisure and hate work. Ink technology can make people do the same work with the least effort, which will naturally be welcomed. This is also the fundamental reason for the revival of Mohism.


    Whenever Mohist ink technology is born, the biggest advantage is to simplify the originally heavy or difficult work. Who won''t like such Mohist.


    Soon, the imperial meal was ready and interrupted the conversation.


    In the warm reception of empress Chang sun, Merton quickly integrated into the family atmosphere. Even Li Shimin took out good wine to drink with Merton for the first time. Of course, he used the crystal he sent to solve his worries.

 Chapter 776

    After the family dinner, Li Shimin couldn''t wait to go back to the chaotang hall and find officials from the Ministry of work to discuss the ferry. At the moment, there can take care of Merton and Changle. Without Li Shimin''s trouble, Merton soon got the consent of empress changsun and easily picked up Princess Changle.


    "You did it on purpose!" Princess Changle looked at Merton with a white eye. Merton told the whole story of the ferry. It must be to find something for her father.


    Merton smiled and did not deny: "otherwise, how can I get you back for my husband?"


    "What? I''m just going back to my mother''s house for a few days." Princess Changle said angrily.


    But Princess Changle couldn''t help shaking her head and smiling bitterly. These days, Merton came to pick her up again and again, and Li Shimin blocked her back.


    "Farewell, my son!" Princess Changle and Merton went out of the legislative hall and said goodbye to the empress changsun,


    "Well, when they go back, they will be in harmony..." empress Chang sun ordered carefully like a secular mother-in-law.


    "Obey your mother''s orders." they bowed down and took orders. Then they got up and left.


    The princess of Changle lived in Changan city without so much sadness. Besides, recently, she was frightened by the craze for perfume, and she just took the opportunity to get away.


    "Young master, madam is back!"


    When they first arrived at Mo mansion, faberton was surprised.


    "Fu Bo! Recruit everyone from Mo mansion!" Merton solemnly ordered.


    Princess Changle was surprised and said, "why?"


    Merton said with a smile, "after you and I got married, I''ve been running around. I didn''t really settle down until now. Now it''s time to introduce you as the mistress of the Mexican house."


    Since Merton got married, Merton and Princess Changle had only a few days in the Mo mansion. They went on their honeymoon just after they got married. After they came back, Changle returned to the palace for a few days. Today''s Princess Changle''s return, I''m afraid it''s the real sense of entering the Mo house.


    "Ah!" Princess Changle was embarrassed, but she was not timid, but looked at Merton gracefully. After all, she had long expected this day.


    "Yes, young master!" fulberton was relieved. Since the old lady passed away, now the Mo House finally ushered in a new hostess.


    With Fubo''s letter, soon the whole ink house was jubilant, put down their work and gathered.


    Among the new houses and villas, Merton and Changle were sitting in danger, and all the staff of the Mohist house came to pay a visit one by one.


    "Hello, young master! Hello, madam!"


    "Hello, Princess! Hello, son-in-law!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Today, the members of the Mo house are divided into two parts. One part is the old people of the Mo house. They are called young masters and wives! One part is the maid brought back from the palace by Princess Changle, who calls them the princess and her son-in-law.


    Of course, there is an exception, that is, Wu Meiniang. Wu Meiniang, who came to the Mo mansion, restored the girl''s liveliness and said mischievous, "meet the master and mother."


    Merton looked at the prosperous ink house and said to a group of palace maids, "from now on, you are the people of the ink house. Everyone will be treated equally and enjoy all the treatment of the Mojia village."


    "Thank you for your son-in-law!" all the palace maids immediately looked happy and thanked. Everyone knows that Mojia village is the first village in the world. Everyone envies the treatment of the villagers. It is lucky that they can have such an outcome after they leave the palace.


    "Fubo, give the account book of Mo mansion to the princess, and the princess will decide the affairs of Mo mansion in the future." Merton ordered Fubo.


    "Yes, young master!" Fubo nodded and respectfully handed a thick pile of account books to Princess Changle. Before that, he was in charge of the account book of the Mo house. Now Princess Changle is the mistress of the Mo house, and he naturally should hand over the power.


    "Thank you, uncle!" Princess Changle was not modest. Instead, he took it and handed it to Liu e.


    "Madam, I''m flattered! Only when there is a princess in the Mo mansion will it be more prosperous." Fubo said.


    With the transfer of power in the Mo mansion, Princess Changle officially moved into the Mo mansion and became the real hostess of the Mo mansion.


    "All right, let''s go down! Fubo, you stay and help your wife sort out the bills of Mo mansion one by one." Merton waved his big hand. Naturally, handing over the bills is not as simple as handing in the account books. Princess Changle has just taken over Mo mansion. She doesn''t understand many things. All these need Fubo''s handover.


    Everyone agreed and immediately stepped down. Only Fubo stayed. Wu Meiniang was preparing to slip away, but found that Merton had already stared at her and stopped in embarrassment.


    "Madam, I want to check the accounts here, and I have to investigate some Meiniang''s schoolwork for my husband!" more than a month has passed since Merton got married. It would be a dereliction of duty for a master not to teach her apprentice for a month. It can be imagined that Wu Meiniang''s life will be difficult next.


    Princess Changle nodded and watched Merton and Wu Meiniang leave. She couldn''t help but have a headache. Looking at the account book of the ink house in front of her, she had no concept of money, but after all, she had become the mistress of the ink house. She couldn''t escape these things. Fortunately, she had Liu e around to help.


    "Fu Bo, let''s start!" Princess Changle picked up an account book and Liu e got up to follow her.


    "Yes, ma''am!" fuber bowed.


    "This is the monthly money of the people in the ink mansion! It''s too little!" when Liu e saw the monthly money of the people in the ink mansion on the account book, she couldn''t help frowning. She found that although the Mojia village was very rich, the monthly money in the ink mansion was not much, even in the palace.


    Fubo explained: "the monthly money of the Mo mansion is really not high, but there are reasons. First, the Mo mansion was originally poor and the original monthly money was less. Since the young master returned to Chang''an City, the monthly money of the Mo mansion has gradually increased."


    "Now that Mojia village is rich, why is it still such a low monthly money!" Liu e frowned. She thought that the reputation of Mojia village was outside, and the monthly money of Mojia house must be rich, but she didn''t expect it to be so low, which was a big gap in her heart.


    Fubo showed a trace of complacency and said, "Mojia village is really rich, so the annual dividend is not a small amount, and the monthly money is dispensable, so it has not been increased."


    Liu e couldn''t help but, er, speechless, it seemed that they attached great importance to the monthly money, but in the ink house, it was a dispensable income.


    "Take aunt Xu as an example. Shopkeeper Xu has a monthly salary of 100 yuan. Naturally, she can''t see the money last month. Purple clothes will pay rich royalties every time she contributes to Ink magazine. Even Meiniang has made great progress every day because she invented silver mirror."...... "Fubo said.


    Liu e can''t help being messy in the wind. It seems that she is the group with the least income in the ink house. Not to mention these three, they are ordinary servants of the ink house, and the dividends are far more than their regular money in the palace.


    Princess Changle pondered for a moment and said, "although this is the case, it''s not good to spread out that the monthly money of the servants of the Mo house is too low. Since this palace married to the Mo house, it will not be stingy. In the future, the monthly money of the Mo house will double."


    If the regular money of the Mo family is doubled, it is almost the same as that of a group of gong''e in the palace. Coupled with the treatment of the Mo family village, it is enough to calm the hearts of the palace maids. In addition, it is natural to be happy that the servants of the mo family gave an extra regular money for nothing. After all, who doesn''t want to charge more regular money.


    Although Princess Changle has a soft personality, she has lived in the palace for a long time. A simple subtotal will bring the hearts of both sides together at once.


    "Thank you, Princess!"


    "Thank you, madam!"


    Fu Bo and Liu e spoke in the same voice.

 Chapter 777

    "A cut above others is a trivial matter. The princess''s monthly money is the priority among priorities. You must know that the princess is the body of a thousand gold. The first thing used in the palace is a tribute. If you marry it to the ink house, you will not be able to bear it." Liu E has some fingers and high spirits. She follows the princess to marry herself, and thinks she is of the highest rank in the palace.


    "There is no limit for the Royal Highness."


    "There is no upper limit!" Liu e''s face, which was high and angry, stagnated.


    Princess Changle quickly shook her head and said, "Mohism has always advocated frugality. Since my palace married to Mohism house, it will naturally abide by Mohist ideas. How can I be greedy for luxury and enjoyment."


    Fubo shook his head and said, "the best goods in the world come from Mojia village. I believe the princess will not be wronged at all. Just as the young master said, how can it be said to be a luxury to use the things produced by himself?"


    Princess Changle couldn''t help smiling. He naturally knew that Merton used this reason to argue for their new house.


    Liu E said with a displeased voice, "the princess''s salary is beyond count. How can he care about Mohist''s money?"


    "That''s nature!"


    Fubo naturally wouldn''t pierce Liu e''s bluff and cooperate knowingly.


    Liu e took advantage of the slope to continue to hand over the account books with Fubo. The Tianzhu number was first used in Mojia village. The account books used were very convenient, simple and clear. Soon, Princess Changle understood the general expenditure direction of Mofu.


    "This is the expense of the son-in-law?" Princess Changle looked at the account book and said in surprise. Liu e couldn''t help looking. She saw that Merton''s expenses were divided into two diametrically opposite parts.


    One part is that Merton''s own living expenses are pitifully small, not to mention very different from those of the aristocratic family, and almost the same as those of ordinary people, while the other part is ridiculously high. A series of huge figures are more than the total expenses of the aristocratic family.


    Fubo explained: "the young master usually spends very little, but he should often specialize in ink technology. Most of the materials used are rare and expensive, so they are calculated separately."


    Liu e couldn''t help but be shocked. She had never heard that a powerful man like Merton spent so much.


    Princess Changle nodded her head and said, "in the future, the expenses for the development of ink technology by her son-in-law will be as usual. As for the expenses of life, let''s give it to the palace!"


    "Then I''ll take the trouble," said fuber. With the care of Princess Changle, I believe Merton''s life will not be as casual as before.


    "Why is there only the accounts of the Mohist house, not the books of the Mohist village?" Liu e suddenly frowned.


    It is said that Mojia village is the richest village in the world. It can be said that it has the most money in the Tang Dynasty. Now, among the account books handed over by Fubo, only the account books of Mofu but not the account books of Mojia village, which makes Liu e think that Fubo has left a hand to guard against the princess.


    Fubo explained: "the princess doesn''t know. The Mojia village operates independently. All the books are decided by the round table meeting of the Mojia village. Only when there is something pending will the young master decide. If the princess needs to check the books of the Mojia village, let the Mojia village send it."


    "It doesn''t matter. Since ancient times, outside the male master and inside the female master, the palace only needs to manage the Mohist house. The things of the Mohist village should be handed over to the son-in-law!" Princess Changle shook her head.


    Princess Changle has heard of the reputation of the round table of Mojia village. She naturally knows the operating rules of Mojia village. Fubo did not lie.


    "The princess is wise!" fuber bowed down and loosened his airway heavily.


    "Princess!" Liu e wanted to persuade again, but was stopped by Princess Changle''s eyes.


    "Speaking of Mojia village, there''s another thing I want Mojia village to do." Princess Changle suddenly thought of something.


    "Please tell the princess!" fuber answered.


    "When this palace went to Luoyang, it joined forces with the emperor''s Condor to develop a kind of woman''s substance called perfume, which is the recipe for making Mohist village for production and sale." the princess of Changle brought out a secret recipe and handed it to Fu''s hand.


    "This is what Mojia village is best at. It must be done properly for the princess." Fubo said proudly. In terms of production technology, Mojia Zi can be the first in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that Mojia village has been deeply cultivated with huge sales channels. He believes that Mojia village will produce it in the shortest time and sell it to the Tang Dynasty, even abroad.


    When Fu Bo hurried away with the secret recipe, Liu e didn''t understand: "princess, the Mojia village is the fief of the son-in-law, and it should be managed by the Mojia house. If the princess can''t even manage the Mojia village, how can she be regarded as the real hostess of the Mojia house."


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "Liu e, you only see that Mojia village is the fief of the son-in-law, but you don''t see that Mojia village is the place for the revival of Mojia. No one can manage Mojia village without Mojia. Mojia has been silent for thousands of years. Now the revival momentum is booming. Do you think this palace has the ability to lead the revival of Mojia?"


    Liu e couldn''t help breathing. Mohism was a prominent scholar in the pre-Qin period. Although she stood on the side of Princess Changle, she had to admit that although Mohist village was the richest in the world, it was also a hot potato. She only saw the great wealth of Mohist village, but didn''t see the great pressure to take charge of Mohist village.


    "The revival of Mohism naturally requires the son-in-law to do it." Liu e said calmly.


    Princess Changle said positively, "so the Palace won''t interfere in the affairs of Mojia village. Only by taking care of the Mojia house in an orderly manner, so that the son-in-law doesn''t have any worries, this is what a wife should do."


    "The princess is wise!" Liu e said with sincere admiration.


    "And the industry one divides into two. The proceeds from the ice cream shop and perfume are donated to the Red Cross and another account book. The income of the palace and the future land are combined with the account books of the Mexican government," said the princess of Changle.


    "Ah!"


    Liu e couldn''t believe looking at Princess Changle. Unexpectedly, Princess Changle arranged her own industries like the ink house.


    "But!" Liu e said reluctantly. In this way, the interests of Princess Changle would be greatly lost.


    "It''s the right way to distinguish between public and private. The practice of the Mo house is extremely appropriate. That''s it!" Princess Changle said with a hammer.


    "Yes!" Liu e had to take orders reluctantly. She couldn''t help but say in her heart, "is it true that a family doesn''t enter a house? Princess Changle and her husband-in-law sing with their wives. It''s really synchronous."


    Soon, after the news that Princess Changle doubled the salaries of the people in the Mo house came out, the whole Mo house was full of joy. After all, no one would dislike more money.


    At the same time, the news that Princess Changle has become the new mistress of the Mo house spread among the upper class. For a while, there were many invitations from famous ladies. On the one hand, only Merton is in charge of the Mo house. Except for Merton''s peers, there are few opportunities to contact the Mo house. Now Princess Changle has naturally become another channel to contact the Mo house.


    Of course, there is also the most important one, that is, the news of the princess holding perfume in Changle is coming out of the palace, and it immediately caused a sensation in the Changan lady''s circle. Changle Princess naturally became the sweet potato of the Changan City lady.

 Chapter 778

    It''s night!


    After a busy day, Princess Changle collapsed on the bed, regardless of the so-called Princess etiquette and the style of the hostess of the Mo house.


    "These people come to you just for the sake of your princess''s status and the wealth of Mojia village. Why are you so involved?" Merton came in and said painfully when he saw the tired Changle.


    Power and wealth have always been the focus of pursuit, but Princess Changle has both, which makes the ladies of Chang''an crazy.


    Princess Changle snuggled up in Merton''s arms and said, "again, these people are rich families in Chang''an City, and it''s hard for me to refuse. Although I can''t help the Mohist village, at least make good friends with a group of people, so as not to let the Mohist village make enemies everywhere."


    Merton couldn''t help being moved. He knew that Princess Changle was trying to be the hostess of the Mo house, so he had to participate in the entertainment she didn''t adapt to.


    "If Mojia village is strong by Madam''s route, I''m afraid it can''t go far. The lady doesn''t need to wrong herself any more. Normal human relations can be done, and there''s no need to worry about others," Merton said.


    "Hmm!" Princess Changle nodded obediently. She was quiet and didn''t like these parties. Now Merton said that Mojia village didn''t need this. Naturally, she wouldn''t force herself.


    Merton looked at Princess Changle with pity. She was originally a carefree princess. Where do you need to worry about these? All this is for him.


    "I heard that you also divided your industry into two?" Merton suddenly asked.


    Princess Changle nodded and said mischievously, "I see that the books of the Mohist house and the Mohist village are divided into two. I think this is Xiao Guicao Sui."


    Merton said with a smile: "no, it should be that the husband sings and the woman follows, but it is extremely correct to distinguish between public and private. However, in this way, the cost of management will double, which is a lot of trouble."


    Princess Changle''s face was bitter.


    "However, you can rest assured that the Bank of Mojia village is about to be completed. In the future, you can attach your finance to the bank. As long as you control your money, you don''t have to worry so much." Merton said.


    Princess Changle nodded and said, "what is a bank!"


    Merton took a deep breath and solemnly said, "a product enough to change the world."


    The terminal of Zhuque street, near Zhuque gate, is the most strictly guarded area in the imperial city. The business atmosphere is not strong, but it is the safest place. The headquarters of Mojia village bank is set here.


    "Madam, young master!" when Merton appeared here with Princess Changle, moer led a group of Mojia children to salute one after another, saying that China Construction Bank is of great importance, and Merton has always asked moer to keep an eye on it.


    Merton nodded and asked, "where is Mr. Gongshu?"


    "Back to young master, Mr. Gongshu has designed the structure of the bank and is where the foundation of the bank is." Mo Er said, taking Merton and Princess Changle to the location of the bank.


    I saw Gongshu Hong leading a group of drawings held by the children of Gongshu, commanding a huge pit. He didn''t wake up until Merton came near.


    "Mojia Zi!" Gongshu Hong blurted out when he saw Merton coming.


    However, when he saw the princess of Changle, he quickly changed his voice and said, "see your highness!"


    "I''ve heard a lot about the name of the public loser in Changle!" Princess Changle said with a smile. Princess Changle naturally knows the grudges between the Mohists and the public losers, but since Merton invited the public losers to build the bank''s Treasury, she naturally understands that the relationship between the two countries has eased a lot at the moment.


    "This is the honor of the public loser!" the public loser Hong was immediately flattered.


    Even moton had to admit that the princess of Changle had a strange magic in her presence. Even the Mohist and the public lost family had such an old grudge that the princess of Changle could reconcile herself in such a play.


    "This is the bank that Mr. Gongshu is going to build!" Princess Changle asked, pointing aside.


    Gongshu Hong proudly said: "yes, this bank is integrated into the essence of Gongshu''s domineering mechanism technology, not to mention that there is quicksand anti-theft on the periphery of the bank. There are mechanism crossbows, chain turnover plates, iron rope hanging stones inside, and mercury pools are set in the bank,......"


    Because Merton''s silver bank is of great importance, and it is the first shot of the public loser''s reputation, public loser Hong directly used nine of the ten common burial mechanisms in later generations. Except for the corpse poison, the other one did not pull.


    "There is also the mechanism lock designed by Xiaoer Gongshu Hao, which is indestructible. Three people can hold the key. None of them is indispensable. Moreover, there is an hourglass inside. Once it is locked, it cannot be opened until six hours. Gongshu family can guarantee that even the infallible silver Treasury in the world, even the most powerful thief in the world, will have nothing to do with it." Gongshu Hong said proudly.


    Although tomb robbers of later generations have the opportunity to steal tombs, this is when there is no one. The silver treasury of the Mojia village bank is guarded all the time. Once the quicksand falls or any mechanism is moved, they will call the police. In Gongshu Hong''s view, this is the safest fortress in the world. Even the public losers can''t do anything about this silver Treasury in a short time.


    "I wonder if mohou is satisfied with the bank designed by the public loser." public loser Hong held his breath. For a long time, the Mohist school has been pressing the public loser. Now he will correct his name in front of the Mohist family by using the public loser''s mechanism.


    As soon as the public loser Hong''s voice fell, many public losers'' children stared at Merton.


    Merton nodded without hesitation and said, "the mechanism skill of the public loser is really extraordinary, which makes Mo an eye opener. According to the arrangement of Mr. public loser, this bank is indeed a rare safe place in the world."


    Many public losers'' children can''t help showing their pride. Although Mohists and public losers are constantly competing, how can they not be excited if they can get the personal recognition of Mohists.


    "However..." Merton''s words turned, and Hong''s originally proud face froze.


    "But Mr. public loser ignored a big loophole!" Merton said solemnly.


    "Please give me some advice!" Gongshu Hong refused.


    "Strong... Attack!" Merton said word by word.


    "Strong attack!" Gongshu Hong couldn''t help shrinking his eyes and staring at Merton. He suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. What he built was not the treasure house of small families, but the wealth of the world''s richest Mojia village. It was not just the ideas of some petty thieves, but even some bold thieves, Even stronger force.


    Under the powerful force, I''m afraid these so-called well-designed organs won''t last long.


    Merton pointed to the foundation of the bank in front of him and shouted: "Mo wants the location of the bank and puts it underground. The public loser can dig as deep as he can. All foundations and walls should be covered with three feet of reinforced cement mortar. All rooms should be locked with three locks and handed over to three people for safekeeping. The whole bank has only one channel, and a steel cylinder weighing 100000 kg should be used as the mechanism. When the mechanism is started, a huge cylinder will be used After the rotation, the passage for two people can be exposed. Not only that, once there is an alarm, all access doors are closed, and the people inside can consume oxygen and suffocate in one day... "


    Gongshu Hong and all the children of the public losers stared at Merton''s idea. Compared with the original design of the public loser, Gongshu Hong immediately felt ashamed. The silver bank he designed was poor.


    Deep into the underground silver warehouse and the mechanism steel door weighing 100000 kg, I''m afraid the so-called gunpowder of mojiazi can''t shake it. This is also a loophole he neglected before. His thought is still in the conventional anti-theft method, but he doesn''t realize that there is a kind of destructive weapon in the world, and mojiazi has personally seen this strongest spear, so he designed a special defense Its powerful shield.


    "In this way, when the bank is deep underground, how to carry property." Gongshu Hong asked modestly.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "the Mohists have designed an artificial elevator, which can be used here."


    "The earth cellar is too deep, it will also hurt people''s lives, not to mention the silver vault is so deep underground." Gong Shuhong frowned.


    Merton spread his hands and said, "it depends on Mr. Gongshu to design a safe ventilation system.


    Gongshu Hong couldn''t help laughing angrily. He knew that the work of mojiazi was not so easy to take over. However, the more so, the more excited he was. If such a safest and indestructible silver Treasury in the world, it would be an irresistible temptation for a craftsman.


    Merton and gongshuhong kept discussing the security measures of the bank. Whenever one proposed a method, the other tried his best to crack it. Soon, the prototype of an unprecedented new bank appeared on the drawing.


    Princess Changle looked at the two people who should have opposed each other, but they coexisted so harmoniously. She couldn''t help smiling. This may be the charm of Merton.


    "As soon as this bank comes out, all thieves in the world will be disappointed and helpless." Gong Shuhong looked at the pattern on the drawing and said with heartfelt admiration.


    The of this bank can be said to be a collection of Gongshu''s mechanism skills, coupled with the new materials of Mohism and the idea of Mohism, Gongshu Hong believes that when this bank is completed, the world will be amazed.

 Chapter 779

    There is no airtight wall in the world. The news of Mojia Village building a silver Treasury on Zhuque street soon spread. Moreover, for Mojia, the building of a silver Treasury is not a secret and is not hidden.


    "It''s said that it''s the public loser who built the bank for the Mohist school." in Chang''an City, an idle man was proud of his gossip.


    "Doesn''t it mean that Mohism and Gongshu are feuds? How can they work together?" many people exclaimed at the news. The contradiction between Mohism and public losers is well known. How can we not surprise everyone that they have cooperated to build a silver treasury!


    "Could it be that the public loser also defected to the Mohist school?"


    "How could it be? It is said that the Mohist family spent a lot of money to invite public losers. Public losers are fools if they don''t make money." the idle man sniffed.


    "In the master''s theory of Mohist school, it was once said that if you specialize in art, you can be a teacher. Public losers have always specialized in domineering mechanism technology. It is understandable that Mohist school asked public losers to build a bank for banks." a scholar thought.


    "However, it can be seen that the Mohist School attached great importance to this bank. For this reason, he didn''t repair the bank himself. Instead, he didn''t hesitate to ask the public loser to build it to ensure the integrity of the bank."


    "Others are banks, while Mojia village is a bank. It can be seen how rich Mojia village is!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone sighed and wondered about the so-called bank one after another, and even inquired about the bank''s news in every way.


    With the continuous spread of a few words, the public loser''s powerful mechanism skills, deep into the underground silver warehouse, and the gate weighing 100000 kg, each news surprised the people of Chang''an city.


    Countless people look back at the place where they hide their money and can''t help but feel speechless. For a long time, most of the money saved by ordinary people is buried in the earth and made a mark. When a rich family builds a treasure house, it has to be built very hidden for fear of being known. However, the Mohist family is good at building a treasure house, which is not only dignified, but also known all over the city, Lest you don''t know that the money of Mojia village is hidden here.


    "Money has not been revealed since ancient times. Has the world changed, or are they hiding money in the wrong way?" many people immediately asked the sky without words.


    So far, the Bank of Mojia village has not been completed, it has been known all over the city.


    "Husband, is this too publicity?"


    The discussion of Chang''an City naturally spread to the Mo mansion. After hearing this, Princess Changle couldn''t help worrying. Since ancient times, the world has been taboo about money, but Merton did the opposite. He even built the silver Treasury on rosefinch street, lest the world should not know.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it is recognized by the world that Mojia village is rich, and it is impossible to hide it. It is better to admit it openly and generously than to hide it. This is also the reason why Mojia village publishes its financial statements every year."


    "In addition, the bank is not only a factor to store the money of Mojia village, but also has great uses. Only when the bank takes root in Datang, that is the biggest opportunity for the revival of Mojia." Merton solemnly said.


    "Should it be so important?" Princess Changle was surprised.


    Merton nodded and said, "I wonder if the lady has ever heard of the breath of double calling."


    "Double the breath!" Princess Changle thought for a moment and said, "this comes from the book of Han Dynasty food and goods annals: when those who have half Jia sell, and those who die take double the breath. It means taking one for two."


    "Take one for two." Merton looked up and sighed, "that is, 100% usury. Mojia village controls the secret skills of Mojia, and the annual profit increases by only 50%. Take one for two, even if it is Mojia village, I''m afraid it will break its wrists and sell the industry to pay off."


    "Ah!" Princess Changle said in surprise.


    However, Merton said with a wry smile: "in fact, it''s nothing to call the interest. As long as you are willing to break your wrist, you can still pay it back. My wife has heard of ''donkey rolling and usury''."


    "Donkey roll usury?" Princess Changle shook her head blankly, not only donkey roll usury, I''m afraid no one even mentioned donkey roll in their ears.


    "According to the donkey herders, donkeys have a natural habit of rolling. They usually roll on the ground after work in order to relieve fatigue and dry their sweat with dust. Another is to drive away mosquitoes and flies and relieve itching, but sometimes it is also used as play and play. When people lend money, it is stipulated that if they don''t pay it when it''s due, the interest will be doubled. When they go to Galilee, they roll more and more, such as The donkey rolls over, so it''s named. This is also the most common method of borrowing in the Tang Dynasty. "Merton''s voice is mixed with a trace of anger.


    "I see. Doesn''t that mean you have to pay back a lot of money?" Princess Changle said vaguely.


    "A lot of money?" Merton shook his head and said, "no, it''s the money he can''t pay back all his life!"


    Princess Changle looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton said in his heart, "no, if you and my husband and wife might as well play a little game that doubles a penny for a month, you must understand."


    "Double a penny a month?" Princess Changle was very interested. It was the first time she interacted with Merton, and she couldn''t help looking forward to it.


    Merton nodded and said, "you give me a penny the first day, double it the next day, that is, two cents, and so on, for a full month."


    "Why is it difficult? Here! This is a penny!" Princess Changle said playfully, took out a purse, took out a penny and put it in Merton''s hand.


    Merton accepted it impolitely and said, "what about the next day?"


    "Give you two Wen!"


    "The third day!"


    "Four Wen!"


    "The fourth day, the fifth day..."


    At first, Princess Changle began to pay easily. However, when she gave it to her on the tenth day, her face gradually became heavy. At the moment, she can only calculate it with paper and pen.


    "The twentieth day!"


    "Five hundred and twenty-four, two hundred and eighty-eight Wen!" Princess Changle said in a trembling voice. She could not imagine that a penny had arrived, but such a terrible figure had arrived in twenty days.


    "On the 21st day,......."


    Every day Merton reported, Princess Changle''s body trembled involuntarily.


    "The thirtieth day!"


    "536, 870 through 912 words." Princess Changle was sweating and looked at the figures in front of her with a frightened face. Fortunately, her arithmetic was OK and calculated, but such a huge figure was calculated from her hands, even if she calculated it three times in person, she believed this fact.


    "That''s more than 500 million dollars! If the daily interest rate of a penny is doubled and the donkey is used to roll profits, you will have to pay back more than 500 million dollars a month. Now you know the harm of donkey rolling. Anyone who borrows donkey rolling will never turn over, even in Mojia village." Merton said faintly.


    "Then why should the world borrow such usury?" Princess Changle said with lingering fear.


    Merton said bitterly, "some are desperate, some are lucky, and think they can return it. Of course, there are more people who don''t understand the seriousness of it. Finally, they can only fall into the abyss step by step, their families are broken, their wives and children are separated, and there are several merchants who have business dealings with Mojia village alone, which ended in a tragic end."


    "It''s hateful that donkey rolling is so harmful!" Princess Changle hated it.


    Merton nodded deeply: "this is also the reason why Weifu banned brothel gambling houses in Mojia village. These two industries are inextricably linked with usury."


    If the three industries of brothel gambling house usury are allowed to enter Mojia village, I''m afraid the revival of Mojia village can only be empty talk. Now Mojia village has been expelled from brothel gambling house, and the bank is to do it by itself.


    If Mohism wants to fully revive, it will take root and sprout a lot of ink technology in the Tang Dynasty. However, the carrier of ink technology development is a lot of large and small industries. As we all know, industry is the most capital consuming industry. Ordinary people have so much spare money to develop industry. Only banks can gather a lot of small money to support industrial construction.


    The existing financial institutions in Datang are banks, which are usurers who eat people and drink blood. Once they borrow here, I''m afraid people will swallow their blood. It''s not the help of Mohism, but the resistance. This is the reason why Merton tried his best to build a bank,


    On the one hand, it is to raise funds for the construction of Mojia village, and to be a catfish in the financial industry of Datang. Once banks are popular in Datang, it will be the spring of Datang handicraft industry.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help looking at Merton proudly. The world was thinking about how to exploit others and earn money, while Merton looked further.


    "But those husbands did not offend the usury profiteers." Princess Changle worried that she had not been a simple canary in the palace. Naturally, she knew that the usury profits were so rich that it was hard to imagine the wide implications behind it.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "this time, Weifu has already thought of it, and Weifu has already thought of meeting Buddhism."


    "Buddhism! Buddhism!" Princess Changle said in horror. She never thought that the usurer''s profiteer was a benevolent Buddhist.


    Merton is also incredible. When he decided to build the bank, he was destined to conflict with the banks. Naturally, he had to explore the details of these banks. However, to his surprise, the biggest makers behind the banks were those Buddhist temples.


    Buddhism has the merit of Shaolin thirteen stick monks in saving the king of the Tang Dynasty. Although there is no Taoist scenery, it is also developing smoothly. Many Buddhist temples have strong incense and a lot of incense money. In addition, there are many Buddha fields under their name, so they don''t have to pay taxes at all, and have accumulated a lot of wealth. Therefore, these monks lend the incense money donated by these believers to poor believers. If they fail to pay it within the time limit, It''s ironic that the land under the believer''s name will be used to offset the account.


    Moreover, after such a cycle, the power of Buddhism has expanded rapidly. In addition, there are many Buddhist believers in secular officials. Although Buddhism is not one of the hundreds of schools of thought, it has already had the strength that is not inferior to Taoism and Confucianism.

 Chapter 780

    Dacien temple in Chang''an city is a temple with a lot of incense in Chang''an city. Every year, a large number of male believers go to worship the Buddha. Even many dignitaries and ladies are regular guests of dacien temple, often leaving a lot of incense money.


    In addition, daci''en temple has an excellent reputation. Whenever frustrated scholars and poor scholars from other places come to Chang''an City and have nowhere to settle, daci''en Temple provides accommodation free of charge. If ordinary people go to daci''en temple to ask for relief due to sudden changes in their family circumstances, daci''en temple will also give generously.


    Zhao Laohan in the suburb of Chang''an is a believer of daci''en temple. His wife Zhao is weak and ill. He donates incense money to daci''en temple every year in order to pray for his wife.


    However, during the Chinese new year, his Zhao family suddenly became seriously ill and had no money to treat the disease. Finally, he borrowed three Guan money from Da Ci''en Temple and spent three months on treatment, which greatly improved in Mo hospital.


    Hu family!


    Old man Zhao helped the newly healed Zhao family back. In order to cure the Zhao family, they spent a lot of their savings before. It can be said that they were destitute and their family was very poor.


    "Fortunately, I met doctor sun this time, which gave my wife hope of recovery." Zhao said happily. Zhao''s condition was extremely complex. Finally, Sun Simiao personally made Zhao''s condition better.


    Zhao had just recovered from his serious illness and was weak. Seeing the Hu family, he couldn''t help but feel ashamed and said, "I blame my poor health for making this family so difficult."


    Zhao shook his head and said, "who told us that we were not born in Mojia village, but fortunately, your disease has improved and everything will be all right."


    Nowadays, Mojia village is famous, and the villagers'' welfare can be said to envy everyone. Especially, Mojia village is backed by Mojia hospital, and its free medical treatment can be said to be everyone''s dream.


    "But how can you repay the three Guan money you borrowed from Da Ci''en Temple?" Zhao worried. In order to treat her, the family has long been in vain. The three Guan money is not a small amount.


    As soon as the old man Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "you don''t have to worry. I''m going to ask the benefactor of Ci''en Temple for grace for some time. Now that your health has improved, I''ll go to Mojia village to work. With all my strength, I can return it within a year. You can keep the field at home and recuperate."


    The average monthly salary in Mojia village is about 300 Wen. If you work hard for a year, it will be nearly 300 yuan. If you save money, you can pay off your debts.


    Zhao was relieved. However, before old man Zhao went to Da Ci''en Temple, he saw the Tongji monk of Da Ci''en Temple come to the door accompanied by the chief.


    "It turned out that benefactor Hu has improved, which is really gratifying." Tongji monk folded his hands.


    Old man Zhao said with joy on his face, "thank you also for the help of master Tongji. If master Tongji doesn''t lend the old man three Guan money, how can we cure the stubborn disease of the base."


    The Tongji monk nodded and said, "I came here just for this matter. At the beginning, daci''en Temple lent benefactor Hu Sanguan money and agreed to return it in January. Now three months have passed. I don''t know when benefactor Hu will return it."


    The old man Zhao immediately looked puzzled and said, "please allow Tongji master some time. When the old man goes to work in Mojia village, he will pay back his money at the first time."


    Tongji monk immediately turned cold and said, "it has been three months since we made an appointment to return it in one month. According to the original contract, if you don''t pay it in one month, the interest will double. Now it''s three months. You already need to repay 40 yuan even with the principal and interest! Do you want to extend the time?"


    "Forty Guan! How is this possible?" old man Zhao looked at Tongji monk like a bolt from the blue. He didn''t dare to think about the number of forty Guan. He always thought that he only needed to pay back the three Guan money.


    "It''s impossible. It''s written in black and white, and you can still recognize your original fingerprint." Tongji monk took out a contract and put it in front of old man Zhao.


    "This... This..." old man Zhao couldn''t help looking for help to the chief of the Department.


    The chief took over the contract, looked carefully, and sighed helplessly, "it''s written in black and white, and the interest is also the market price. There''s nothing wrong."


    "But at the beginning, master Tongji didn''t have any interest!" said the old man with a red face. He could pay back the money three times a year, but 40 times a year. This is a sky high price. How could he exchange it, let alone the soaring interest.


    When the chief heard the speech, he immediately blew his beard and glared and said, "as you say, dacien temple will lend you money for free. You dare to take advantage of the Buddha''s cheap."


    "But how can the old man afford to pay back these forty passes?" old man Zhao, who was a believer in daci''en temple, shrunk at his words.


    The chief looked at old man Zhao''s family. He shook his head and said, "it seems impossible to expect you to pay back the money. However, your family still has more than ten mu of land, which is not worth 40 Guan, but master Tongji, in my face, it''s better to make a clean break?"


    "Then I''ll give Mr. Li Chang a face." seeing that old man Zhao couldn''t squeeze any oil and water, Tongji monk nodded.


    "You can''t take away our land, it''s our lifeblood!" the Zhao family heard the news, regardless of their weak body, came from the inner room and begged. More than ten acres of the Zhao family are excellent fields, which are the most valuable wealth of the Zhao family. How can they easily give them to others.


    "It''s only natural that you should pay your debts. If your family can''t pay them back, you should pay them off with Tian." Li Chang said coldly.


    Old man Zhao also woke up at the moment. He understood that he had won the plan of the chief and Tongji monk. He trembled and pointed to the two humanitarians: "are you not afraid of the government if you lose all conscience?"


    The Tongji monk said coldly, "how many officials in the imperial court have just won the examination by boarding in our da Ci''en Temple. With this layer of incense, who do you think the government will help?"


    "Besides, there are still black and white words here? There is a mountain of irrefutable evidence. Even if it comes to your majesty, you deserve it." after the chief intimidated, he left with Tongji monk.


    Zhao''s husband and wife can''t help but stay there. It''s like being lost. For farmers, land is the foundation of their survival. If they lose land, they will have nothing.


    In an instant, their joy of getting better was swept away, leaving only endless desolation.


    The next day, just after daybreak, the firewood door of Zhao''s family was closed. There was no figure at the end of the day. The neighbor pushed the door to visit and suddenly screamed.


    "Dead!"


    Immediately, the calm Zhaojiazhuang caused a sensation, and some brave villagers entered the house. Only then did they find that Mr. and Mrs. Zhao had killed themselves at the same time.

 Chapter 781

    "Blood stained compassion!"


    When the new issue of Ink magazine solemnly put the Zhao tragedy on the front page, the whole Chang''an city suddenly became a sensation.


    Before that, Buddhism had a good reputation in the Tang Dynasty. It was compassionate and compassionate. However, the things reported in the ink magazine gave a great contrast to the citizens of Chang''an.


    "Isn''t Da Ci''en Temple always compassionate? How can it force people to commit suicide?"


    "You don''t know that! It''s common for daci''en temple to borrow money. Where do you think the land under the name of those Buddhist temples came from?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People talked and condemned the behavior of dacien temple.


    "It''s only natural that they owe money. The Zhaos don''t pay it back, and they slander the reputation of dacien temple with death."


    "This money is to gild the Buddha. If everyone borrows money and doesn''t pay it back, how can we build the temple and build the Buddha?"


    There are also foolish and loyal believers of daci''en Temple who constantly wash the white of daci''en temple.


    "It''s natural to pay off debts? Do you know that this is money in India. The donkey makes profits. Old man Zhao borrowed three Guan money and had to pay back forty Guan at once." a merchant sneered.


    As merchants are sensitive to money outside the grid, they hate and fear donkey rolling. Once anyone gets involved in donkey rolling usury, it can be said that they have to peel off their skin if they don''t die. Naturally, they know the horror of donkey rolling usury.


    "So many?" they exclaimed.


    The merchant sneered, "that''s too much. You haven''t heard of the game of doubling a penny between Mohist and Princess Changle. You know how terrible donkey rolling is."


    "The game of doubling a penny?" people were surprised.


    "If you don''t try, you''ll know." the merchant said proudly.


    Curious, they kept doubling. When they doubled to 30 days, they were shocked to see the huge amount of money as high as 500 million.


    "The donkey rolls over the usury, and it''s so terrible!" for a moment, everyone is frightened when they see this figure. Although usury can''t double the interest rate of a penny, the reason is the same.


    Suddenly, the blood stained compassion in Ink magazine burst into flames with the game of doubling a penny, and public opinion fell to Mr. and Mrs. Zhao again, and the reputation of Da Ci''en Temple suddenly fell to the freezing point.


    In daci''en temple, almost all the main monks gathered together and looked at the ink magazines in front of them with gloomy faces. For a long time, the reputation of the Buddhist temple was outside, and no one believed a person''s nonsense. However, when the newspaper, a new thing, appeared in the Tang Dynasty, the right to speak suddenly changed. When it was said, it was known to all, and for a moment, The operation, which had been safe for many years, was magnified under the public, and the daci''en temple was taken by surprise.


    "The Mohist school is deceiving people too much! My great Ci''en Temple and the well water of the Mohist school don''t offend the river, but I should do so."


    Tongji monk roared with a red face.


    Other monks also looked angry. This time, the report of Ink magazine was a fatal blow to the reputation of daci''en temple. Once it lost its reputation, daci''en temple will surely decline and never return to its previous scenery. This will not only damage the overall interests of daci''en temple, but also damage the reputation of Buddhism.


    "The poor monk said before that Buddhism is a quiet place. How can we release money? Otherwise, how can we have today''s crisis." a kind-hearted old monk was distressed. Many monks also nodded repeatedly. They didn''t agree with such dirty things that humiliate the reputation of Buddhism.


    "Senior brother Tongren, you''re standing and talking without back pain. Without the hard work of Tongji over the years, how could you have gilded the Buddha and expanded the temple today." Tongji monk sneered.


    Tongren monks suddenly became silent. Although they did not agree with the release of printing money in daci''en temple, they were actually beneficiaries. Fundamentally speaking, they were not clean.


    "Well, it''s too late to say anything now. Now what we have to do is how to make the great Ci''en Temple get through this crisis." abbot Ci''en said calmly.


    "Please tell the abbot," said the Tongji monk.


    "Tongji! Old man Zhao''s property is not allowed to be moved any more. In addition, all the borrowed money is interest free. How much you borrow, how much you get back, or even free," said abbot Ci''en.


    "Ah! The Great Mercy Temple will lose a lot." the Tongji monk said discontentedly.


    Tongren monk sneered: "at this time, you still think of these petty profits."


    The Tongji monk suddenly changed his face and stared at his colleagues. When they remembered the past of Tongji monk, they trembled and shrank back.


    "That''s it! And in the future, daci''en temple will no longer set foot in Indian money, and all will be handed over to the bank." abbot Ci''en said.


    "Yes!" the Tongji monk nodded reluctantly.


    "What about the reputation of Da Ci''en Temple?" the Tongren monk dared not target Tongji again and turned to ask.


    Abbot Ci''en immediately frowned. The harm of Ink magazine is too great. Now, the great Ci''en Temple can be said to be the point of Wanfu. We must recover its reputation as soon as possible in order to keep the great Ci''en Temple.


    "Although Ink magazine has great influence, it is not alone. If you want to break the situation, you must ask for help from Confucianism." abbot Ci''en frowned.


    Tongren monk said in his heart, "is what the abbot said a Confucian journal!"


    "Not bad!" Abbot kindness nodded.


    "Wonderful!" all the monks said happily. With the Confucian journal to wash the white of daci''en temple, it will certainly be able to wash away the bad name of daci''en temple.


    "Yes, Confucianism and Mohism are rivals. This time, they will certainly help Ci''en Temple." the monk nodded.


    "Not only that, but also warn Mohists not to do anything against Buddhism." Tongji monk said fiercely.


    Abbot Ci''en nodded and said, "if we do both, we can have nothing in Da Ci''en Temple."


    "The real great mercy temple!"


    As the Confucian journal published the statement of dacien temple, which attributed the tragedy of the Zhao couple to the expensive medical expenses of the Mexican hospital, the Zhao couple exhausted their family property and still did not cure it. Only then did they commit suicide in despair. Dacien Temple chanted Scriptures for the Zhao couple in order to die, and publicized the good deeds done by the surface work of dacien temple and spread all over the world.


    "I said how could the benevolent land of daci''en Temple make such a scandal? It must be the Zhao and his wife who committed suicide."


    "Yes! Although the Mexican hospital is skilled, it charges a lot of money. Last time I went to see a doctor, I spent a lot of money."


    "The charge of Mohist hospital is really not low. We are not Mohist children. We can treat diseases free of charge."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In fact, since the establishment of the Mohist hospital, the cure rate and cost of the people in the Tang Dynasty have been greatly reduced, but no one wants to spend money. Under the wrong guidance of the Confucian journal, the contradiction among the people has gradually turned to the charging problem of the Mohist hospital.


    For a moment, the wind direction of Chang''an city changed again. After the introduction of Confucian journals and the reputation of daci''en temple, in the hearts of some foolish and loyal believers, daci''en temple was soon washed white, and the reputation of Mo hospital was greatly damaged.

 Chapter 782

    "I''m sorry, young master. I caused trouble for the Mohist family!"


    In the Mo mansion, Mo Sanyi pleaded guilty with shame. This time, Mo magazine made the decision without authorization and published the scandal of Da Ci''en Temple, which caused the counterattack of Da Ci''en Temple.


    Filled with righteous indignation, he did not think that the ink was so angry that he had to take the lead in revealing it.


    "Don''t blame Mo San. This report on daci''en temple is what I advocated." Master Li said with a straight face.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "master, do you know how deep the water in Da Ci''en Temple is? You''ve poked a hornet''s nest!"


    Master Li looked at Merton contemptuously and said, "the great Mohists are so afraid of hands and feet. Do you remember that when I accepted the Confucian journal, you promised not to interfere with my words and deeds."


    Merton immediately raised his chest and said, "what did the master say? It''s just a great mercy temple. Can''t you touch it? Besides, what the master reported is a matter of justice. To avenge the people, the Mohists naturally support it with both hands."


    Master Li nodded with satisfaction. He naturally knew the pressure of this matter, but if he was allowed to choose again, he would still report it.


    "Now that the reputation of Mo hospital is damaged, how should we do it?" Mo San asked.


    Merton pondered for a moment and said, "since dacien Temple stigmatizes Mo hospital, we will let Mo hospital pull out Zhao''s expense list to show everyone."


    "Young master, wise!" Mo nodded.


    "Since the Da Ci''en Temple has printed money, it is impossible to put only the Zhao old man''s family and stare at the Tongji monks. I don''t believe that the Da Ci''en Temple can erase all traces." Merton said fiercely in his eyes.


    "Yes!" Mo San said solemnly.


    "Three through money!"


    With the publication of Zhao''s list of medical expenses in the second issue, Chang''an city was in an uproar. Although the San Guan money is not a small amount, it is not an astronomical figure for an ordinary person. As long as he works hard for a period of time, he can return it. How can he commit suicide.


    "Impossible!" many believers doubted.


    "It''s impossible. Didn''t you see doctor sun''s signature on the ink magazine?" a Chang''an citizen snorted coldly. It can be said that no one can control Sun Simiao''s reputation in Chang''an city. Since he personally confirmed that Zhao''s expenses were three Guan money, people naturally have no doubt.


    "Besides, Zhao''s disease is diagnosed and treated by Dr. Sun himself, and the three Guan money has taken a great advantage!" more people stand on the side of Mo hospital. You know, with Sun Simiao''s worth, it was not too much to say that the three Guan money was 30 Guan and 300 Guan. Now Sun Simiao sits in Mo hospital, which gives ordinary people the opportunity to be diagnosed and treated by famous doctors.


    Subsequently, more and more news came that more and more poor families identified Tongji monks as false compassion, deceived them into being illiterate, cheated them of their trust, signed usury contracts and took away their land.


    For a while, more and more victims surfaced, and everyone''s land added up to tens of thousands of mu of good land, which can be said to be an astronomical figure in Chang''an City, where every inch of land and every inch of gold, and daci''en temple is in the forefront of the wave again.


    "How could this be?"


    Da Ci''en Temple immediately panicked! No one expected that the counterattack of the people they had deceived wantonly would be so fierce.


    "Abbot, what should we do now?" the Tongren monk panicked. Even the arrogant Tongji in the past was not discouraged. The current situation has exceeded their expectations.


    Abbot Ci''en said with a clenching of his teeth, "up to now, only a strong man can break his wrist."


    "A strong man broke his wrist!" a group of monks did not understand.


    "All the land property obtained by printing money belongs to the owner, so that they can''t say more." abbot Ci''en said ruthlessly.


    A group of monks suddenly felt a pang of pain. If all these land properties were returned, I''m afraid daci''en temple would return to its original shape immediately. Where did they spend money on food and drink.


    But now the situation is bad for dacien temple. Now everyone has to bow their heads.


    However, the monk Tongren turned his eyes and said, "tell the abbot that if you want to tide over the difficulties of daci''en temple, I''m afraid it''s not enough to just break your wrists."


    Abbot Tzu en was stunned and looked at Tongren monk, but found that Tongren monk was staring at Tongji.


    "What do you mean, colleague? You want to throw a stone at me! Don''t forget who earned Da Ci''en Temple today." Tongji was shocked and angry. Once Da Ci''en Temple gave him up, his fate can be imagined.


    Tongren monk said coldly, "Tongji, there must be a scapegoat for this matter. If you don''t come, do you want the abbot to come?"


    Abbot Tzu en could not help but give a meal. He stared at Tongji calmly and said, "the Buddha said, I don''t go to hell. Who goes to hell? Tongji, you may be able to achieve positive results in the future."


    Tongji scolded secretly in his heart, but seeing the calm expression of Abbot Tzu en, he couldn''t help but burst into a sudden in his heart and reluctantly promised: "Tongji obeys! I''m willing to sacrifice my life for the great Tzu en temple."


    Abbot Ci''en nodded with satisfaction, turned to his colleagues and said, "do it right away. As long as the great Ci''en Temple is there, there will be a place where we can make a deep-rooted decision."


    "Yes!" the colleague replied.


    As the land properties returned to their original owners, the voices of the people against dacien Temple became less and less. Subsequently, the great Ci''en Temple issued a statement again in the Confucian journal, blaming the Tongji monk for releasing money to old man Zhao without permission, and punishing the Tongji monk for thinking about ten years of atonement in the backyard of the great Ci''en Temple.


    "Ten years to face the wall! Two lives to face the wall for ten years!" Merton looked at the Confucian journal, his face flushed with anger.


    "But Tongji monk is a monk, and even the government can''t intervene." Master Li was also deeply helpless.


    Merton snorted coldly, "what about monks? Don''t they belong to the law of the Tang Dynasty?"


    "Well said! If the emperor breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people, how about monks? All monks are equal before the law of the Tang Dynasty." a sonorous and powerful voice came.


    "Brother Han!" Master Li saw Han Zheng coming in and quickly got up to meet him.


    "Han Fu Zi!" Merton bowed.


    Han Zheng looked at Merton with satisfaction and said, "I really don''t see the wrong person. If you''re not from the Mohist school, I''m afraid you''re the most perfect successor of the legalist school."


    Merton''s face turned red. He had such a concept only because he was influenced by the idea of equality before the law. In this era, everyone thought that monks were monks and did not belong to the secular world. Unexpectedly, he had no objection to the punishment of Tongji monks.


    "The master came, but he found a way to punish Tongji." Merton asked.


    Han Zheng shook his head and said, "no, although Tongji monks released money, they used usury commonly used in the market. In addition, Zhao and his wife committed suicide. Even if they get to the government, they can''t take Tongji. How about Tongji?"


    "Ah!" Master Li suddenly looked disappointed.


    "However, although forcing Mr. and Mrs. Zhao to death can''t cure him, Tongji monk has another crime." Han Zheng said with a straight face.


    "Another sin!" Merton and master Li stared at Han Zheng in surprise.


    Han Zheng nodded and said, "Tongji is a monk who became a monk halfway. Before he became a monk, he had to become a monk because he committed murder in his hometown."


    "Unexpectedly so?" Master Li said in surprise.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing: "there is a cloud in Buddhism. He put down the butcher''s knife and became a Buddha. Tongji put down the butcher''s knife but didn''t become a Buddha. He continued to be evil after entering the Buddhism."


    Han Zheng said with a stern look in his eyes, "the heaven''s net is wide and open. Since Tongji has committed a crime, he should have been punished by the law of the Tang Dynasty."


    Just when people thought that the Zhao couple''s affair had subsided, another article of Mo magazine detonated Chang''an city.


    "If you put down the butcher''s knife, you may not become a Buddha."


    The full text tells the whole story of Tongji monk''s murderous murder in his hometown, and the signature is the famous legalist Han Zheng.

 Chapter 783

    "Tongji monk is a murderer!"


    Almost everyone was in an uproar when they heard the news. Before, people believed in the idea of Great Mercy Temple and monks'' compassion. However, when they learned that Tongji monks actually killed people, they were afraid of crime and became monks, they were shocked. Then they contacted the tragic case of Zhao and his wife, and their perception of Great Mercy Temple decreased sharply. After all, Buddhists have always claimed mercy, Now he has hidden the murderer privately, which is a great contrast.


    "How is this possible?" some believers dare not believe.


    "This is the personal testimony of the legalist Dr. Han, but there is sufficient evidence." more people believe that Han Zheng, Han Zheng has repeatedly popularized legalist knowledge in the legal column of Ink magazine, chose classic cases to educate the world, and has long had a large number of loyal legalist fans.


    This is also Han Zheng''s intentional guidance. I''m afraid these legalist fans are the seeds of Legalism in the future.


    "People know their faces, but they don''t know their hearts. The Buddhist temple also has a place to hide dirt and accept dirt." the people couldn''t help but sigh. No one thought that the Legalists had stood up and dealt a fatal blow to Da Ci''en Temple.


    When ink magazine detonated Chang''an City, Cao Li, the Constable of Chang''an County, had already led the elite to Da Ci''en Temple.


    "This is an important place of Buddhism. You can break in!" abbot Ci''en shouted suddenly when he saw Constable Cao breaking in.


    Constable Cao couldn''t help laughing when he saw abbot Ci''en. Others didn''t know the details of Da Ci''en Temple. However, as the Constable of Chang''an County Yamen, Cao Li was so smart that he naturally knew that all the reports reported by Mo magazine were true, and the source of all this was abbot Ci''en.


    "Forgive me, abbot. Master Tongji is involved in the murder case. How can the county government of Chang''an ignore it? Where is master Tongji? The constable has something to ask him, and please ask the abbot for his convenience." Cao Li turned his mind and thought that the status of Buddhism is respected. If they forcibly block Tongji and let him escape, I''m afraid he can''t help but go back and be punished.


    "Constable Cao, Mr. and Mrs. Zhao committed suicide, but it has nothing to do with Tongji." abbot Ci''en was a little relieved and still frowned.


    At the moment, the news of Mo magazine has not reached Da Ci''en Temple. Naturally, master Ci''en doesn''t know. Constable Cao has another purpose for this trip.


    "Of course I know, but the process is still going, and please abbot Ci''en to lead the way." Constable Cao said vaguely. It would be bad if Da Ci''en Temple got the news in advance and let Tongji go.


    "Tongji is facing the wall in the backyard. Please follow me," Abbot Tzu en said without doubt.


    The backyard of Da Ci''en Temple.


    Abbot Ci''en led Constable Cao and others in. Abbot Ci''en pointed to a Zen room and said, "this is where Tongji faces the wall."


    The fellow monk on the side immediately understood, patted the meditation room and said in a high voice: "Tongji, abbot and Constable Cao of Chang''an County are coming. You can leave the Customs for the time being!


    Tongji, who was facing the wall, was sleeping on the soft couch. The room was well decorated and had everything. He didn''t look bitter. He suddenly woke up when he heard a knock on the door.


    "Constable Cao!" Tongji monk''s heart trembled, and a great fear surged into his heart. He had to escape the pursuit of the constable in those years, so he had to escape. All the time, he would soften his legs as long as he saw the constable. Even after so many years, that feeling still shrouded in his heart.


    "I''m thinking about it facing the wall. Come and chant scriptures for Mr. and Mrs. Zhao. Please come back!" a calm voice from Tongji monk came from the closed Zen door.


    Abbot Ci''en nodded, turned to Cao Chutou and said, "Lord Cao, Tongji has repented and thought about his mistakes. Please go back!"


    Constable Cao sneered and said, "if everyone can get rid of his sin by facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes, why should he be a Constable? Give it to me!"


    With Cao Li''s order, a group of captains suddenly broke into the meditation room and soon caught Tongji with untidy clothes.


    "What are you doing? I''m a Buddhist. These Qiu Ba are really deceiving people too much!" master Tongji said sternly.


    Abbot Tzu en also immediately sank, stopped Cao Li and said, "Lord Cao, what does this mean? I have explained that the death of Mr. and Mrs. Zhao is suicide, and the great Tzu en temple has punished Tongji. Why should Lord Cao force him hard?"


    Cao Li smiled strangely and said, "I''m afraid Abbot Tzu en hasn''t read today''s Ink magazine! The Tongji master in front of us, however, the murderer who fled sixteen years ago, but the constable can''t catch him."


    "What?" the monks of Da Ci''en Temple were shocked and couldn''t believe it. Only the fellow monks and Abbot Ci''en didn''t move much.


    "I''ve become a monk. I''m not a secular person for a long time. You can''t catch me!" Tongji was extremely frightened. He didn''t expect to find out what happened 16 years ago. He didn''t even recruit himself and took the initiative to shout out.


    Many monks of Da Ci''en Temple stopped helping and hesitated one after another. Now Tongji has stopped fighting. Killing is also a great sin for Buddhists.


    "Do you think it''s Buddhism or national law? If everyone commits a crime and becomes a monk, what''s the use of national law?" Cao Li shouted angrily. If Tongji monk becomes a monk and wants to be good, he will still be a little soft hearted. But instead of changing, Tongji continues to be evil, forcing the Zhao family and his wife to death. It can be said that he deserved it.


    "Abbot, help me!" the Tongji monk turned pale and asked the benevolent Abbot for help, just as he did 16 years ago.


    The abbot of mercy shook his head helplessly and said, "yesterday''s cause and today''s fruit should come and will always come. You have escaped for 16 years. It''s time to repay."


    He saved Tongji once, but he couldn''t save Tongji for the second time. Now the Great Mercy Temple has been targeted by ink magazines. If he harbors Tongji again, I''m afraid he can''t even protect the Great Mercy Temple.


    Tongji monk suddenly turned pale. In the end, his last reliance on Buddhism also gave him up.


    "Farewell!" Cao Li saw that the monks hesitated. Without hesitation, he put chains on the Tongji monk and said goodbye.


    After a group of Yamen servants left, the whole Da Ci''en Temple was silent. I''m afraid this is the first time that the government has imprisoned monks from the Buddhist temple since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. Although Tongji has its own way of taking death, it has a great blow to the reputation of Buddhism.


    "Go and find me today''s Ink magazine!" Abbot kindness repressed his anger. Rao is the first time he has been so angry for so many years.


    Soon, a little monk ran out and came in a hurry and handed abbot Ci''en an ink magazine.


    "Legalists! Mohists really deceive me. There is no one in Buddhism!"


    Looking at Han Zheng''s signature on the ink magazine, abbot kindness couldn''t help but say angrily.


    "Abbot, what should we do now?" the colleague on one side said anxiously. Although he didn''t deal with Tongji, Tongji was arrested, which would damage the reputation of Da Ci''en Temple too much.


    Abbot Ci''en took a deep breath: "now it''s urgent to restore the reputation of our great Ci''en Temple."


    "Redeem your reputation?" the fellow monk looked at Abbot kindness at a loss.


    Abbot Tzu Eun looked up at the sky and showed mercy to the heaven and Humanity: "after Tongji killed people in those years, he was fierce and wanted to come to daci''en temple to kill people and rob money. Under the influence of my Buddhist dharma, he repented, put down his butcher''s knife and became a monk. It seems that my Buddhist Dharma is not good and failed to completely affect the magic in Tongji''s heart, so he can have today''s disaster. Amitabha, it''s good."


    Tongren monk suddenly woke up and said, "abbot is compassionate and crossing demons with his body is really a model for us."


    Abbot Tzu Eun sighed, "I don''t want to go to hell. If anyone goes to hell, it''s my fault to help others. I''ll step down as Abbot Tzu Eun and face the wall for ten years. Your colleagues will take over the position of abbot."


    "Abbot!" the monk looked at Abbot kindness in disbelief.


    "The matter has been settled," said kindness firmly


    "Yes!" the colleague said helplessly.


    They both know that if they want to restore the reputation of Da Ci''en Temple, someone must be responsible for Tongji, and Abbot Ci''en is the best candidate.

 Chapter 784

    In the streets of Chang''an City, a group of Yamen soldiers rode by in prison carts. Although four-wheel carriages have become popular, prisoners will not enjoy the benefits of four-wheel carriages. They are still prison carts like cages.


    "This prisoner is a monk!" a pedestrian suddenly exclaimed. Suddenly, everyone was in an uproar and gathered here one after another.


    "Is this man Tongji!" many people thought of the content of Ink magazine and suddenly said one after another.


    Tongji was extremely sensitive. Cao Li did not answer. Instead, he quickly whipped Tongji to the Yamen prison of Chang''an County.


    With the prison car across Chang''an City, the news of Tongji subduing the law soon spread all over Chang''an City, and suddenly the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.


    "I said that Mo magazine would never wronged Tongji. How could a real monk do such a thing as usury." a citizen immediately changed his mind and didn''t remember his duty to believe in Da Ci''en Temple and attack Mo hospital.


    "A murderous devil turned into a monk. I can''t believe it. Tongji is really a scum of Buddhism and tarnishes the reputation of Buddhism." many believers still can''t believe that there will be murderous demons in Da Ci''en Temple.


    "Yes, thanks to my offering incense money to dacien temple?"


    For a moment, the reputation of the whole dacien Temple fell to a low point and almost became the object of everyone''s Crusade. The original heyday of incense was suddenly empty, and even other temples in Chang''an City were greatly affected.


    However, when everyone at the Great Mercy Temple shouted for a fight, the news about Abbot Tu Hua Tongji quietly spread in Chang''an city.


    It is a legend that the Buddhist family turned the murderous devil into a Buddhist and asked him to put down his butcher''s knife and convert to Buddhism. Then, the news that master Ci''en stepped down as abbot of the great Ci''en Temple and replaced Tongji monk to face the wall for ten years moved many believers to a mess.


    "There is such a story about Tongji entering Buddhism."


    "Master Ci''en is indeed an eminent monk. He is really compassionate and profound in Buddhism."


    With the word-of-mouth of believers, the reputation of Da Ci''en Temple has risen rapidly in a short time. Almost everyone has forgotten the fact that abbot Ci''en harboured Tongji and praised master Ci''en''s profound Buddhism.


    Then the Confucian journal followed up, popularized the deeds of Buddha cutting meat and feeding eagles, and publicized the contribution of Buddhism to the world. Soon, the reputation of Buddhism was even better.


    "The means of Buddhism are really extraordinary!" Merton sighed in the ink house.


    The Mohist School of Da Ci''en Temple naturally got the news at the first time. They not only lamented the extraordinary means of Buddhism, but also lamented that these believers were easy to cheat. They could even fight back in this situation.


    "What compassion is, it''s just harboring criminals. It''s hateful that these officials of the Ministry of punishment are blind!" Han Zheng sneered. As a legalist, he hates violations of law and discipline most. The story of master Tzu en''s influence on Tongji is really moving in the eyes of ordinary people, but in his opinion, it is harbouring criminals, but it also needs to be punished, However, just because kindness is a Buddhist, almost everyone subconsciously ignores his sin of harboring and shielding.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. In Datang, if there was a crime, almost no one would run away. First, there was no road guide, and he couldn''t run far at all, unless he was a bandit. Second, Datang also committed the crime of sitting even. If he really harboured a criminal, not only the person who harbored him would be punished, but also his neighbors would sit even, so in this era, once someone was found harboring a criminal, Will report it at the first time. After all, the risk of hiding is too great.


    "Brother Han, I''m worried. Not everyone in the DPRK and China has turned a blind eye. Someone has played his Majesty in person. Your majesty will thoroughly investigate the affairs of Buddhism." Master Li said.


    "Oh! Who is this man?" Han Zheng asked. He had been a doctor of law of the National Academy of Sciences for many years, and most officials in the DPRK and China knew him. Suddenly, he was overjoyed to hear that an official shared the same interests with him.


    "Fu Yi!" replied Master Li.


    When Han Zheng heard the speech, he suddenly showed an expression as expected.


    Merton moved in his heart and asked, "is it Fu Yi, the former Taishi who repeatedly told the court to ban Buddha?"


    Fu Yi was famous in the early Tang Dynasty. He wrote many times about the disadvantages of Buddhism, asked the court to ban Buddhist temples and force monks to return to the common customs. He was simply an anti Buddhist fighter. Liu Yuxi and Liu Zongyuan, who later opposed Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty, were influenced by him.


    "Yes, that''s the man." Master Li said proudly.


    Fu Yi is also a Confucian, but he is extremely paranoid and can''t get along with Buddhism. He has a temper with Master Li and has become a close friend.


    Unfortunately, although Fu Yi repeatedly banned Buddhism, many ministers in the court believed in Buddhism. He returned without success many times. Now the struggle between Legalists and Buddhists suddenly broke out, which gave Fu Yi an opportunity to ban Buddhism again.


    "Lord Fu is really insightful!" Han zhenglue was slightly disappointed. Although Fu Yi said this, it was not to maintain the justice of the law of the great Tang Dynasty, but for his own proposition of banning Buddhism.


    "It seems that Confucianism and Buddhism are not so like-minded!" Merton laughed.


    Confucianism pays attention to education and upholds the rule of man, which is very consistent with the influence of Buddhism. In this Buddhist crisis, ink magazine has always helped Buddhism speak! But I didn''t expect that now it is Buddhism and Confucianism.


    Master Li sneered: "Confucianism has many schools now. Even the Confucius dare not say to command Confucianism, let alone a small Confucian journal."


    "Let''s see how the Buddhists react this time!" Merton looked like watching a good play.


    "Which side does Mo magazine stand on this time?" asked Master Li. Although he is a good friend with Fu Yi, if he rashly stands on Fu Yi''s side, I''m afraid it will drag down the Mohist school. After all, it''s a matter for outsiders.


    Merton said without hesitation: "the most basic function of Ink magazine is to truthfully report the news. If you don''t even dare to report this, it''s the sadness of Ink magazine. Moreover, the more arguments, the more clear it is. I believe justice is free in the hearts of the people."


    From the very beginning, ink magazine reported the evil deeds of Mr. and Mrs. Zhao and Tongji monks truthfully. Fu Yi''s prohibition of Buddha is also a big news. Ink magazine will not let go of it, and if Ink magazine can''t do this, I''m afraid it will soon lose the support of the people.


    "I understand!" Master Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In order to expand his influence, Fu Yi asked Mo magazine to report. He didn''t agree, but came to test the style of Mohism. Fortunately, Merton didn''t disappoint him.


    With the Mexican magazine''s report on Fu Yi''s ban on Buddhism, Chang''an city was in an uproar again. In just one month, the reputation of Buddhism was like a roller coaster again, rising and falling. Buddhism suddenly became the focus of the world and was pushed to the forefront of the storm.

 Chapter 785

    Since the last Tongji incident, Da Ci''en Temple has paid special attention to the collection of information. When the ink magazine was published, it spread to Da Ci''en Temple.


    In Da Ci''en Temple, the newly appointed abbot of Tongren was shocked and angry at Mo magazine. He thought the incident was over, but he didn''t expect to attract a more cruel role.


    "What''s the matter with Confucianism? How can Fu Yi attack Buddhism?" colleagues couldn''t believe it.


    Fundamentally speaking, Fu Yi is a Confucian. Now the cooperation between Da Ci''en Temple and Confucian journals is very happy. He never thought that Confucianism was the most ruthless attack on Buddhism.


    "Back to abbot, Fu Yi has been fighting against Buddhism. This time, I''m afraid he saw the flaw of daci''en temple, so he took the initiative to attack Buddhism. Moreover, Confucian journals also wrote to him, and they can''t control Fu Yi." a monk said helplessly.


    Abbot Tongren was helpless for a while. They thought that the Tongji incident had ended the retirement of master Tzu en, but they didn''t expect that it would lead to a greater crisis. This time, Fu Yi grabbed the handle of the Buddhist family, and how can he give up easily.


    "It seems that we have to ask for help now. If the Buddhist family is destroyed in the hands of our daci''en temple, we will be the sinners of the Buddhist family." Tongren Abbot said helplessly.


    Abbot Tongren hurried to the meditation room in the backyard, came to the retreat of master Ci''en, and whispered to him about this Buddhist crisis.


    "Amitabha!"


    After a long time, a Buddhist Chant came from the meditation room.


    "Fu Yi is proficient in Confucianism and Taoism and has always been hostile to Buddhism. If Buddhism wants to survive this crisis, it needs to ask for help from one person." master Ci''en''s voice came from the meditation room.


    "Who is the abbot?" the fellow Abbot couldn''t help saying with joy. Although he succeeded the abbot of daci''en temple, he still respected Master Ci''en.


    "Go to master Falin of Jifa temple. Master Falin is proficient in the three veins of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, and the integration of three religions. As long as he comes forward, he can certainly stop Fu Yi." master Ci''en said.


    "Fareen!"


    The abbot of Tongren suddenly looked happy. He was also well-known to master farIn. He was a Buddhist monk. His youth became a monk and widely involved in Confucian scriptures. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, he put his hair and clothes into Guanzhong and studied Taoist classics. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he once again became a Buddhist. Now he is in Chang''an Jifa temple.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Chang''an City Jifa Temple


    The scale of Jifa temple is much smaller than Da Ci''en Temple. The temples here are particularly dilapidated. Many places are in disrepair, but no one despises Jifa Temple because there is a real eminent monk in Jifa temple, master Falin.


    In a quiet meditation room in Jifa temple, the meditation room is small, but there are many books. In addition to the common Buddhist scriptures, there are even many Confucian and Taoist books, each of which is very old. Obviously, its owner often reads them.


    In the meditation room, a thin old monk was meditating with his head down and eyes closed, regardless of the abbot in front of him.


    "Master farIn, please save dacien temple!" Abbot Tongren begged master farIn in front of him.


    Master farIn shook his head and said, "this disaster is caused by your great mercy temple. Naturally, you should bear it."


    The colleague said sadly, "I''m afraid you don''t know! Fu Yi once again banned the Buddha. This time it''s not a crisis for our dacien Temple family, but the danger of our Buddhism."


    "What?" master farIn was shocked suddenly, and his calm face moved for the first time.


    My colleague solemnly nodded and said, "this time Fu Yi got the help of Mohist school. Mohist magazine published his ideas all over the world and wantonly slandered the reputation of Buddhism. Now he has a great momentum in both the government and the public, and Buddhism loses everything by carelessness."


    "If the Buddha is robbed, your da Ci''en Temple will be the biggest sinner!" master farIn said angrily. Rao has practiced for many years. This time, he is really angry. He can not care about the rise and fall of Da Ci''en Temple, but he can''t care about Buddhism. That''s his lifelong belief.


    My colleagues bowed their heads with a guilty conscience.


    "The poor monk will personally write to the imperial court to defend the Buddhism, but you should take care of yourself in daci''en temple. If there is another time, even the Buddha will not save you." master farIn stared at his colleagues calmly.


    My colleague was cold in his heart. He naturally knew that what Falin said was not empty words. With master Falin''s status in Buddhism, it would not be very difficult to bring down dacien temple.


    "Little monk knows!" my colleagues had to bow their heads.


    On the second day, master Falin, a famous monk in Chang''an City, played "enlightening Fu Yi on Abolishing Buddhism and monks" to the court, which caused a sensation in the court. You should know that master Falin has a high reputation in Chang''an city. In addition, master Falin''s fellow practitioners of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, his memorials are even more penetrating, and there are many contacts between ministers in the court. For a while, more and more ministers speak to Buddhists in the court, The sound of abolishing Buddha in the hall was one of the changes, and the severe situation of Buddhism was soon alleviated.


    When the news reached dacien temple, the monks breathed a sigh of relief,


    "Master Falin really deserves his reputation. As soon as he played the memorial of the imperial court, all the officials in the court praised him, and even his majesty nodded." Abbot Tongren was beaming with joy. In his opinion, as long as the Buddhist family had passed the crisis, dacien temple would be fine.


    "Although the crisis in the court hall has been relieved, the reputation of folk Buddhists has been destroyed by Fu Yi and has fallen to a low ebb. What should we do?" a monk frowned. In this storm, his daci''en temple has suffered the most. After several ups and downs, the prosperous incense of daci''en temple has been neglected and its reputation has declined greatly, Now the most urgent thing to change the reputation of Buddhism is daci''en temple.


    The abbot of Tongren nodded. When he achieved the Abbot''s position, he naturally wanted to consider it for daci''en temple. At present, he smiled knowingly and said, "don''t worry, I''ve already been prepared for the reputation of Buddhism."


    "Ready?" the monks were stunned and looked at their colleagues.


    "Master Naro, the reputation of Buddhism is up to you." master Tongren turned aside and said.


    In the surprised eyes of the monks, they found that there was another monk in a dark corner next to their colleagues, and no one had noticed before.


    "Nara has long dedicated his life to your Buddha and maintained the reputation of my Buddha. It is the honor of the poor monk." as soon as the blunt voice fell, a ragged foreign monk came out of the corner.


    Looking at the surprised eyes of a group of monks, my colleague explained: "our Buddhist monk Xuanzang went to Tianzhu alone to ask for the Scriptures. Naturally, some Tianzhu monks came to our Tang Dynasty. Master Naro is an ascetic monk of Tianzhu esoteric sect and has long practiced the art of resurrection. As long as he appears in Chang''an City, he will certainly be able to reverse the reputation of our Buddhism."


    "The secret of bringing the dead back to life!" a group of monks looked at master Nara in front of them in horror.


    Master Naro couldn''t help but show a mysterious smile and said, "tomorrow, I will naturally let the Heavenly Kingdom enjoy the miracles of the Buddha."

 Chapter 786

    The next day, in Chang''an city.


    Dressed in exotic costumes, master Naro walked in the rosefinch street and attracted everyone''s attention everywhere he went.


    In fact, Hu people are not uncommon in Chang''an city. In the west market, there are all kinds of Hu people. However, master Naro is particularly conspicuous. Dressed as an ascetic monk, he looks miserable and walks barefoot.


    However, even in the face of people''s surprised eyes, master Naro still walked happily on the street and recited the Buddha''s name constantly.


    Suddenly! A loud noise came,


    "The horse was surprised."


    With a cry of surprise, I saw a vigorous Qinghai good horse suddenly frightened for some reason, constantly crashing, and pedestrians dodging on the road. But master Naro ignored it and still walked on the street.


    "Get away!" the horse owner shouted anxiously at master Naro. Unfortunately, it was too late. The frightened Qinghai horse hit master Naro heavily and flew out directly.


    "Bang!"


    With the dull voice, master Naro flew high and fell heavily to the ground. His head was bent at a strange angle, which was particularly terrible.


    "Dead!"


    The people in the street knew that they could not live. They exclaimed one after another that the owner of the Qinghai horse was almost paralyzed by fear. His horse killed people. This time, it would put him in prison.


    "Inform Mo hospital and Chang''an County Government quickly!" someone warned. In case of an accident, it has almost become the consensus of Chang''an citizens to immediately notify Mo hospital and Chang''an County Government.


    Everyone woke up and quickly rang the city''s early warning system. With the alarm bell, an ambulance and a car of captors arrived almost at the same time.


    Mo Wu stepped out of the carriage first. This time it was his turn to take the first aid. He came at the first time. Seeing the twisted head of master Naro on the ground, he couldn''t help sighing. With his medical experience, the monk must have been hopeless.


    "It''s doctor Mo Wu. Can this monk be saved?" Constable Cao hurried over and asked.


    Mo Wu came forward to explore his breathing, shook his head and said, "the neck is twisted like this, and there is no breathing. It is difficult for the immortal to save."


    Constable Cao sighed and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. The murder occurred in the street of Chang''an city. This is not a small matter. Now the Buddhist family is in a sensitive period and suddenly died a monk. You should be careful.


    "First gather his body to Mo hospital temporarily, and then inquire from other temples where the monk hangs the bill, and then deal with it." Constable Cao said reluctantly that Mo hospital has a special morgue, which has always cooperated with the county government.


    "That''s the only way!" Mo nodded.


    Mo Wu once followed the army on the western expedition. Although he was young, he had no fear of the body. At present, he bent over and turned his head to cooperate with several doctors to straighten master Naro''s head.


    "Er!"


    Suddenly, a strange sound came from Mo Wuzhi''s hand. When he looked at it, he saw that the fan monk whose neck had been twisted suddenly opened his mouth, inhaled, and slowly opened his eyes.


    "Alive! Unexpectedly alive!" the owner of the Qinghai horse who caused the accident was suddenly ecstatic.


    "What''s going on?"


    Everyone was in an uproar and surrounded one after another. The monk lying on the ground stood up slowly.


    "Bring the dead back to life!"


    "It''s incredible."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Although Datang has spared no effort to crack the superstition after ink magazine, he saw with his own eyes that the fanmonk who has been confirmed as an immortal by ink hospital came back from the dead. It is conceivable that even the doctors accompanying ink hospital could not help looking at master Naro in horror.


    Master Nara got up and turned to look at the Qinghai horse master who was crying with joy: "Amitabha, it seems that I must owe you my life in my previous life. I''ll give it back to you today. You and I have caused it."


    Suddenly everyone focused on the master of Qinghai horse. The man knelt down in the tunnel: "the master is a real eminent monk. I''ll go back and burn incense every day for the Buddha."


    There is no doubt that there is another faithful believer in Buddhism. When master Ma returns, he will worship Buddha Day and night. People around him believe in Buddhism.


    Even Constable CaO on one side could not help but come forward and ask, "master, are you still okay?"


    Anyway, as long as there is no murder in Chang''an City, it is a great achievement, especially involving Buddhism.


    Master Naro smiled and said, "it''s just a smelly skin bag. What does the poor monk care about?"


    With that, master Naro floated away,


    "True monk!"


    People all over the street worship Tao.


    "A little interesting!" only Mo Wu on one side showed a trace of excitement. He studied medicine in Mo hospital. He didn''t know how many corpses he had handled. Naturally, he knew whether there was a way to bring the dead back to life in the world.


    "Why, don''t you believe it? The divine monk was resurrected in your hands." Constable Cao didn''t understand. He didn''t believe in Buddhism, so he didn''t hesitate to arrest the Tongji monk, but he was shaken after he witnessed master naruo''s resurrection.


    Mo Wu sneered: "dressed up with this person''s appearance, he is not a monk in the Central Plains. I''m afraid he must come from countries such as Tianzhu. The so-called art of bringing the dead back to life must be a miracle we don''t know, and it happens that there is a man in our Mohist school who is proficient in the western regions."


    "Mo Hou!" Constable Cao said in his heart.


    "Yes, it''s true or false. You''ll know when you ask the young master." Mo nodded.


    Mo Wu said goodbye to Constable Cao, handed over the duties of Mo hospital and came to Mo mansion.


    "Little five, the young master is teaching Mei Niang. Let you go first." after the briefing, Fubo nodded.


    Mo Wu nodded. The young master never avoided the children of Mohism. If he could hear the young master''s personal teaching, he would not miss it.


    When he arrived at the study, he found that what Merton would do was the "bright ghost" in the Mojing, so he sat quietly behind Wu Meiniang.


    "Minggui was written by Mohist himself, and used the ancient sacred King''s sacrifice to prove that ghosts and gods can reward and punish good and evil in the world. This is Mohist''s political proposition. Now Mohist has abandoned itself in the pilgrimage. We won''t mention Mohist''s concept for the time being, but we''ll talk about ghosts and gods." Merton said proudly.


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help showing an excited expression. She was still young and liked the stories of these ghosts, gods and fox monsters best.


    "It is said that there are ghosts and gods in the world. Taoism, Buddhism and even foreign religions have fairy tales, which are different. In addition, folklore, the old man''s word of mouth, and even many sworn personal experiences, spread the legends of ghosts and gods, but none of them happened in full view of the public. Some people believe it and some doubt whether there are real ghosts in the world God. "Merton looked at the two men.


    Wu Meiniang immediately nodded and said, "master, I don''t believe in ghosts. You have specially cracked the magic of witches and gods. You have personally climbed the clouds and peeped at the moon through a telescope. When you haven''t seen any ghosts and gods, you have calculated that Tiangou eats the sun and reproduces an artificial rainbow. It can be seen that there are no ghosts and gods in this world."


    Mo Wu also nodded heavily and said, "Xiao Wu, I have been practicing medicine for several years. I have been in contact with too many people, and I haven''t seen any traces of ghosts and gods.


    He once walked in the battlefield full of corpses, stayed in the cold morgue, and some patients who had not been cured died in his hands. However, he did not see any signs of ghosts and gods.


    "In fact, whether there are ghosts and gods in the world is uncertain. There are too many unsolved mysteries and many miracles in the world." although Merton doesn''t believe in ghosts and gods, he came to this era as a supernatural phenomenon and couldn''t help but let him keep some points.


    Wu Meiniang and Mo Wu looked at Merton puzzled.


    Merton smiled knowingly and said, "so today''s class is not to demonstrate the existence of ghosts and gods, but to crack the scam of seeking self-interest in the name of ghosts and gods."


    "Scam!" Mo Wu couldn''t help thinking.


    "Shifu means to let me understand that there are many false ghosts and gods in this world, which can''t be trusted!" Wu Meiniang suddenly said.


    Merton nodded: "This is just one of them. First, the Mohists always believe in their own knowledge and should not blindly believe in it. Second, most of these ghost and God deeds are borrowed from unsolved mysteries and use people''s unknowns to create mysterious phenomena. These mysterious phenomena are a tool to make money in the hands of swindlers. However, in my Mohist view, they are brand-new and unknown knowledge. These unsolved mysteries are one of them Once cracked, it is a new ink learning ink technology. "


    Merton''s words are not empty. In particular, the game of catching ghosts by witches and gods is primitive chemistry, not to mention that the Mohists want to create mysterious phenomena with their existing ink skills.


    Wu Meiniang suddenly asked, "if I can''t crack some ghost and God skills, does that mean it''s the real ghost and God power?"


    Merton Lang said, "it''s just that the Mohists can''t crack it for the time being, it doesn''t mean they can''t crack it in the future. When you crack it one day, you''ll find how stupid it was to worship blindly."


    Wu Meiniang immediately brightened her eyes and said, "according to the master, isn''t it natural that Mohism and Buddhism are opposed."


    If Mohism wants to develop, it must study those unsolved mysteries, which are the foundation of Buddhism and Taoism.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not opposition. The Mohists don''t oppose religious beliefs, but don''t let them fool the world with fake ghosts and gods."


    Wu Mei Niang nodded thoughtfully.


    "Young master! The art of bringing the dead back to life..." Mo Wu told me in detail what had just happened in Zhuque street.


    After listening, Merton turned and asked Wu Meiniang: "Meiniang, what do you think!"


    Wu Meiniang immediately sneered and said, "how can there be a way to bring the dead back to life in this world? From the disciple''s point of view, this monk must deceive believers in the name of ghosts and gods."


    Merton was relieved when he heard the speech. He remembered that Wu Meiniang had become a nun and believed in Buddhism in history. Now he has been trained into a firm Mohist.


    "When the Mohist sages visited Tianzhu, they brought back not only the numbers of Tianzhu, but also a message. In Tianzhu, there is a secret skill that can greatly exercise their body and make all kinds of incredible actions. It is called yoga!"


    "Yoga!" Mo Wu suddenly realized.


    Merton nodded and said, "in my opinion, the technique used by this monk must be yoga, and it is extremely profound."


    "Thank you, young master!" Mo Wu said as if he were enlightened. Although he didn''t believe that the monk could come back from the dead, his experience had judged that the immortal was difficult to save, and he was resurrected in his hands. It had an impact on him. Now he knew that the monk used only secret skills.


    Wu Meiniang was suddenly surprised and said, "isn''t this monk cheating believers in the name of ghosts and gods?"


    Mo Wu nodded heavily and said, "that''s nature!"


    "Master, what should we do in Mohism?" asked Wu Meiniang, but there was a trace of cunning in her eyes.


    Merton said reluctantly, "if a monk propagandizes Buddhism, it''s none of my business, but I can''t stand idly by and deceive the world in the name of ghosts and gods."


    "I''ll find the third brother now. Once I want to uncover the true face of this monk!" Mo Wu understood and jumped up.


    Merton said, "don''t forget to take the opportunity to publicize the knowledge of doctors. I think doctors have the most say in whether people can come back from the dead."


    Mo Wu nodded and excitedly went to find Mo San.


    After Mo Wu left, Merton and Wu Meiniang put away their textbooks and got up. The third lesson of Merton''s apprenticeship was finally over. After several months of apprenticeship, they only taught three classes. I''m afraid there are no such teachers.


    But Wu Meiniang didn''t think Merton was incompetent at all. Every class Merton gave her opened a new door and left some endless questions, which required her to look through countless books to find answers.

 Chapter 787

    However, when Mo Wu turned to Merton for help, the rumors about master Naro''s skill of bringing back the dead in Chang''an City became more and more intense.


    "The body is folded in two and moves freely."


    "Swallow arsenic and be calm."


    "Drown for a moment and never die."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In full view of the public, master Naro staged incredible achievements, which caused a sensation in Chang''an city.


    Sima Qian once said that his wife was greedy for life and death, especially for ordinary people. However, after master Naro performed a technique of bringing the dead back to life, Chang''an citizens naturally flocked to it. For a moment, the reputation of Buddhism and believers in Chang''an City soared, and the original low reputation soared again.


    In the pan restaurant, the usual seats full of friends are now empty.


    "Business is so bad that I don''t go out to solicit customers!" shopkeeper pan shouted angrily at his lazy nephew.


    The nephew of the pan family was dissatisfied and said, "uncle, now everyone goes to see Master naruo. It''s time to believe in Buddhism. It''s said that many people are vegetarian. Where can they come to the restaurant for wine?"


    "Then let the back kitchen cook vegetarian dishes! Everyone says we have vegetarian seats here. Be sure to bring the guests to me!" shopkeeper pan shouted.


    The nephew of the pan family was stunned. Unexpectedly, shopkeeper pan could think of this move, so he had to go out to solicit customers.


    Sure enough, this move worked well. After a while, the whole pan restaurant was full.


    "It''s just that I want to worship the Buddha. It''s better to eat a vegetarian banquet." a strong man picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of vegetable and ate it with relish.


    Pan''s nephew was stunned. He remembered that he had no meat before.


    "It''s not good to eat too many vegetarians. Doctors have advocated eating more meat to cure night blindness." shopkeeper Pan said sour. The profit of vegetarian dishes is not as high as that of meat dishes. If everyone is vegetarian, what money does his restaurant make.


    The strong man couldn''t help but look at the vegetarian table in front of him. The doctors now have high credibility. In particular, eating more meat can cure night blindness, which has long been recognized by everyone. However, master Naro had the art of bringing the dead back to life. For a moment, the strong man fell into a tangle.


    "It''s important to worship the Buddha now. You''d better eat the vegetarian banquet first!" in the end, the idea of greed for life and death prevailed. Night blindness can''t kill people, and the art of reviving the dead is equivalent to an extra life. Naturally, it''s more important. All diners made the same choice.


    "Where''s shopkeeper pan? This is a new special issue!" a newsboy pushed the door in and put 20 special issues on the counter.


    "Mohist has a special issue again?" shopkeeper pan moved in his heart. During this period, the special issues of Confucianism and Mohist have been constantly. What each special issue reports are important contents. At present, he can''t wait to pick it up and read it.


    "It''s Ink magazine again. I''m annoyed when I hear about Mohism. Which issue in recent years is not Ink magazine attacking Buddhism? I won''t read Ink magazine again in the future. Shopkeeper pan, don''t order any more." the strong man angrily said.


    However, shopkeeper pan did not answer, but looked at the contents of the special issue with a shocked face.


    "What, the so-called art of bringing the dead back to life is fake, but Tianzhu secret yoga!" shopkeeper pan was shocked.


    "Yoga!"


    "The art of bringing the dead back to life is false!"


    There was an uproar.


    "It''s impossible. The Mohists must be slandering master Nara. We saw master Nara come back from the dead with our own eyes." the strong man couldn''t believe it.


    Shopkeeper pan shook his head and said, "no, this time it''s not Mohism, but a doctor! In addition, he specially interviewed Tianzhu Hu merchants in western city. They have heard of yoga and have seen ascetic monks with distorted heads and folded bodies."


    "What about going into the water and not dying? If ordinary people had drowned long ago," the strong man argued.


    Shopkeeper pan shook his head and said, "closing the water can be practiced. Although some old coastal fishermen can''t reach so long for a moment, they are almost the same."


    "How do you explain that you take poison orally and don''t die?" the strong man resisted stubbornly.


    Shopkeeper pan shook his head and sighed: "Ink magazine also said that taking poison is one of the cultivation methods of Tianzhu ascetic monks. Take a small dose first, and it will become more and more safe. This is what doctors call drug resistance."


    "How could this happen?" the strong man couldn''t believe it. He grabbed the ink magazine and read it. Although he believed master Naro, there was sufficient evidence for every article in the ink magazine.


    "I''ll kill this demon monk and see if he can come back from the dead!" the strong man roared and left angrily, and other diners left with the same momentum.


    Shopkeeper pan looked at the empty restaurant again, but there was no previous sadness, but showed a knowing smile. He turned to his nephew and said, "prepare more meat tomorrow. Tomorrow''s business must be very good."


    "Where is the demon monk?"


    Chang''an citizens who also saw the news of Ink magazine took to the streets of Chang''an angrily. They can eat vegetarian food and worship Buddha, or offer incense money, but they can''t accept being cheated by an exotic monk. Especially when the Tang Dynasty is more powerful, the people are very proud. How can they tolerate being played by an alien people.


    "Liar, you demon monk, should openly deceive the world!" the people rushed to the street and found master Naro, who was still dressed as an ascetic monk.


    "Bold, are you not afraid of the punishment of the Buddha if you dare to collide with the divine monk like this?" the master of Qinghai horse had already incarnated as a follower of master Nara, and shouted angrily when he saw the momentum of the people.


    "What kind of monk? He''s just a liar." the strong man rushed forward and scolded angrily.


    "You have seen everything with your own eyes. How can I deceive you?" master Naro argued.


    The strong man snorted coldly, "What immortal skill is just Tianzhu''s Yoga secret skill. You are fooled by a demon monk."


    "Yoga!" when master Nara heard this word, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes. He didn''t expect that someone in the Tang Dynasty should understand the extremely secret Tianzhu''s secret art.


    "Kill this demon monk and see if he can really bring back the dead!" the strong man roared and waved his fist forward.


    Others also rushed away, drowning master Naro.


    "Tianzhu secret yoga!"


    The owner of Qinghai horse couldn''t help staying there. Looking at master Naro who had been silent in the crowd, he had a hunch that master Naro was really going to die this time.


    Soon, the ambulance and the county magistrate arrived again. It happened that this time, Mo Wu and Constable Cao led the team.


    This time, Mo Wu was not so careless, but directly came forward to check master Naro''s heartbeat, blood and pupils. After the final confirmation, he got up.


    "This time is really dead!" Mo nodded.


    "There is really no way to bring the dead back to life!" Constable Cao was disappointed.


    "If you really have this technique, why do you want Mo hospital?" Mo Wu shook his head and smiled, solemnly got up and signed his name on the death notice.


    "My Lord, what should I do?" a constable asked carefully for instructions pointing to a group of people with other crimes.


    Constable Cao said unhappily, "what should I do? This is a foreign demon monk who deceives the world. The people should be rewarded for punishing traitors and eliminating evil. Hurry to carry the demon monk to Yizhuang."


    It''s a big deal to die in Chang''an City, but it''s a swaggering alien. I''m afraid no one will ask more. It''s his own death.


    However, this time, master Naro''s death has a lot to do with Mo hospital. He can''t put his body in the morgue of Mo hospital, which makes Mo Wu regret. He is still looking forward to the body structure of foreign monks?


    "Thank you, my Lord!"


    The strong man and others were overjoyed and left quickly.


    Soon the whole streets of Chang''an City returned to calm again. However, with the revelation of master Naro''s scam, the reputation of Buddhism was almost ruined in the streets of Chang''an city.


    In Da Ci''en Temple, all the monks were beaming with joy before they knew it.


    "Abbot is really brilliant. Once master naruo comes out, our Buddhist reputation must be so high." a group of monks complimented.


    With master Nara preaching the art of bringing the dead back to life in Chang''an City, the reputation of Buddhism has increased greatly. More and more pilgrims in daci''en temple are the best evidence. According to this trend, it will not be long before dacien temple will return to its former prosperity.


    "This is the blessing of the Buddha!" the abbot of Tongren couldn''t help showing a proud smile and couldn''t help being proud of his own strategy.


    "Abbot, no, master Naro is dead!" a little Shami in charge of asking for information hurriedly ran in.


    "Dead! Doesn''t master Naro know how to bring the dead back to life?" the abbot of his colleagues froze on his face and asked in a hurry.


    The little monk was wronged and said, "that monk is a liar. Where is the art of bringing the dead back to life, but Tianzhu''s Secret Art yoga, which has been reported in the ink journal."


    The abbot of Tongren was dizzy. This time, he could not steal the chicken and eat the rice. Once, he ruined the reputation of Buddhism. This time, I''m afraid even master farIn would not let him go.


    "No, I have another card in Buddhism, which can certainly restore the reputation of Buddhism." suddenly a voice familiar to all the monks came.


    "Abbot mercy!" all the monks were surprised. Now the Great Mercy Temple is in a state of crisis. Unexpectedly, abbot mercy went out of the closed place.


    "Please also ask the abbot for advice to save dacien temple." my colleagues begged.


    "Buddha bone relic!" abbot Ci''en said calmly.


    "Yes, the relic son is the evidence of the perfection of the eminent monk''s merit and virtue. When the relic of the Buddha bone is released, the natural believers are convinced."


    The colleague''s face was happy, and then he said bitterly, "but there is no Buddhist bone relic in my daci''en temple!"


    Abbot Ci''en said calmly, "not before, but now. The crisis of Buddhism began because of our great Ci''en Temple. Naturally, it will be up to me to end. Yesterday is due to today''s fruit, which is the will of heaven."


    It''s night! The abbot of mercy passed away, and the monks cremated him, leaving several Buddhist bones and relics.

 Chapter 788

    Relic! It is the most proud sacred thing of Buddhism. Only eminent monks have Buddhist bones and relics. According to the Buddhist scriptures, the relics are derived from the construction merits of monks during their lifetime.


    There are also folklores that monks who abstain from sex all their life, leave * * for a long time, and are full of essence, there will be solid relic.


    Although Buddhists believe that the relic has no supernatural function, they believe that it is the merit, compassion and wisdom of the eminent monk to save money. As soon as the abbot of Mercy''s relic appeared, it immediately caused a sensation in Chang''an city.


    Not only countless monks came to watch, but ordinary people were extremely enthusiastic. They flocked to daci''en temple to watch the Buddha bone relic.


    "It''s said that there are many relics in Abbot kindness''s relics this time, many of which are extremely hard, and many of which are of different colors and are very magical.


    "These relics are the merits of the master''s life. Master Ci''en is indeed a generation of eminent monks. It seems that we misunderstood Da Ci''en Temple."


    Almost instantly, the reputation of Da Ci''en Temple climbed to a new high. As soon as master Ci''en''s Buddha bone relic came out, all the doubts were cleared away. No relic can prove master Ci''en''s Dharma and compassion. Naturally, they were wrong in the previous doubts about Da Ci''en Temple.


    "We are foolish to question master kindness."


    "Think at the beginning, I also received the grace of master kindness?"


    Many believers of daci''en Temple fell into self reproach one after another. Soon, this self reproach turned into guilt. Many believers donated their expensive savings to daci''en temple to build a Buddhist niche for the relics of master Ci''en.


    "We must live up to the Abbot''s expectations!"


    In daci''en temple, a group of monks looked at the thriving daci''en temple and couldn''t help but bow their heads and join hands.


    Sure enough, as master Ci''en expected, the great Ci''en Temple flourished as soon as the Buddha bone relic came out. However, all this was bought by the sacrifice of Abbot Ci''en.


    "No, abbot Ci''en''s hard work can''t end like this." Abbot Tongren gritted his teeth.


    "Abbot means..." a group of monks didn''t understand.


    Tongren Abbot gritted his teeth and looked up and said, "today, daci''en temple is indeed better than in the past. However, in the secular world, the reputation of Buddhism is still damaged. I''m afraid this is not what master Ci''en expected."


    Many monks nodded involuntarily. In the secular world, the reputation of Buddhism has fallen to the bottom.


    "What should I do? Please tell the abbot clearly." the monks asked.


    "Hold a Buddhist Buddhist Association so that the world can admire the merit of Abbot kindness." my colleagues said one word at a time.


    "Relic Dharma meeting!" the monks suddenly moved. Thinking of this period of time, daci''en temple was moved one after another because of the great reputation and benefits obtained by relic.


    Some monks hesitated and said, "but master farIn?"


    The abbot of Tongren hesitated for a moment and immediately said firmly: "Mohists can hold ink art exhibitions. Why can''t Buddhism hold Buddhist relic Dharma meetings? I''m doing this for the reputation of Buddhism. Even master farIn has nothing to say."


    "Yes!" the monks of dacien temple did not hesitate and began to act one after another.


    "Boom!"


    When the grand honor guard escorted the Buddha bone relic out of daci''en temple, the whole Chang''an city immediately became a sensation, and countless people ran around to tell them. They even paid a lot of money to welcome it home for blessing.


    More local rich people donated hundreds of gold on the spot, just asking to leave the Buddhist bone relic at home for half a day to do a Dharma.


    For a moment, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation because of master Ci''en''s relic, and the reputation of Buddhism in Chang''an City soared, which made hundreds of families look at it.


    "Buddhism!"


    All the people of a hundred families watched the Buddhist Jedi counterattack. Once the Buddhist bone relic came out, there was no solution in the world.


    Downstairs, a grand Buddhist ceremony is going on. The Buddhist believers who come to watch directly fill the streets. According to this posture, I''m afraid it''s no worse than the big military parade.


    "Relic son, is it really so magical?" in the box of the fish champion building, Wu Meiniang looked curiously at the fanatical believers.


    Mo Wu on one side hummed coldly: "what relic, in my opinion, is just a stone in the human body. Xiao Wu has seen many stones in the human body in the process of practicing medicine."


    As a medical student, Mo Wu naturally didn''t believe how magical the relic was. Thinking of his experience, he identified the relic as a stone.


    "No!" Wu Meiniang couldn''t believe it. She couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    Merton said with a smile, "it''s just that it''s possible that there are all kinds of stones in the human body, but the difference between stones and relic is too large. In addition, most of the patients with stones are disease-ridden patients, and the relic is mostly left by healthy eminent monks, which is a little wrong."


    Yu Er was unwilling to show weakness and said, "in my opinion, it must be the reason for being vegetarian. Monks are vegetarian every day. Maybe it is vegetarianism that leads to relic. Ordinary people like me don''t have big fish and meat."


    The Mohists all nodded involuntarily, which is very possible.


    However, Merton shook his head again and said, "in essence, there is no difference between humans and animals, and there has been no relic in the cremation of some vegetarian animals."


    Wu Meiniang, who was on one side, suddenly brightened her eyes and said, "it must have something to do with fire. I''m afraid ordinary cremation will have relic."


    Merton nodded, "that''s natural. If it''s cremated in the steel furnace in Mojia village, I''m afraid there''s only ashes left. Where''s the relic?"


    Mo Wu also suddenly said, "in this way, the relic and bones can''t get rid of dry cleaning. The bone is hard and can''t be burned at the time of cremation. The relic is most likely a bone residue."


    "Very likely," agreed Merton.


    The second fish was surprised and said, "maybe it''s a burial object, but the Buddhist family is very rich. It''s said that abbot Ci''en''s cassocks are inlaid with gold wires and hang a lot of beautiful jade and gemstones. These must be cremated, and these relic children may be related to it."


    Merton looked at the crowd with appreciation, and they said a few words, but they didn''t pull the speculation about the relic in future generations.


    "Although the relic is magical, so far no one can know its principle, but it is absolutely inseparable from stones, bones, teeth and funerary objects." Merton nodded.


    "So, Buddhist relic is not a magical thing. Shall we..." Mo wuxingfen said, trying to make Mo magazine report again like yoga


    Merton shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "the relic is a sacred thing of Buddhism. Ordinary people can only see it and can''t touch it. How can you report it if you haven''t seen it at all? Moreover, with the existing level of Mohists and doctors, you can''t detect how the relic is formed."


    "So, this is a relic, but there is no solution." Mo Wu was disappointed.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, the relic has no flaws. The relic is the biggest card of Buddhism and the foundation of the prosperity of Buddhism. How can you easily crack it?"


    "The Da Ci''en Temple behaves like this..." Wu Meiniang frowned at the fanatical people of Chang''an city. There was no magical effect on their relic. However, many believers worshipped it crazily, and even didn''t hesitate to spend money to pray for peace.


    Merton sneered and said, "although the relic has no flaw, it does not mean that there is no flaw in Da Ci''en Temple. If master Ci''en''s Buddha bone relic stays in Da Ci''en Temple for believers to admire, there is no problem. However, Da Ci''en Temple is not satisfied with this, but it holds a Dharma meeting for master Ci''en''s relic, which has attracted thousands of people in Chang''an city. This is the biggest flaw."


    "The more believers, the better for Buddhism. How can it be a flaw?" Mo Wu didn''t understand.


    Other people looked at Merton puzzled, but Wu Meiniang on one side said thoughtfully: "the reputation of Buddhism has increased greatly and the number of believers has increased greatly. Isn''t that robbing many believers of Taoism? In this way, Taoism can''t sit still."


    "It''s not just Taoism. I''m afraid even Confucianism can''t sit still. I''m afraid all the other hundred schools are watching." Merton said, but he couldn''t help but turn his eyes to the direction of the Tai Chi hall. I''m afraid it won''t be too long. A storm about Buddhism will hit again.

 Chapter 789

    In the xuandu temple, Li Chunfeng''s face was gloomy when he saw that there was no humanitarian view in the xuandu temple. For a long time, Taoism has a strong opponent, that is Buddhism.


    Since the introduction of Buddhism in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it has continuously developed its followers in the Central Plains. The original dominance of Taoism was quickly broken and even caught up. Now, with the support of the Tang Dynasty, Taoism has made great progress with Taoism as the national religion, but the number of Taoist temples is still less than that of temples.


    Of course, Taoism is the most immortal and healthful, and likes to build Taoist temples in famous mountains and rivers, while Buddhism likes to build temples in prosperous cities, which is naturally different in cost and difficulty. However, it has to be admitted that the scale of Buddhism has now surpassed Taoism, and Buddhism has an advantage not only for believers, but also for temples and monks.


    "Master, can there be news!" Li Chunfeng took a deep breath and asked the Taoist aside.


    Yuan Tiangang has been in poor health since he wrote the back pushing map. On the new year''s Eve, after the two Mo Dao families peeped into the moon together, they took the opportunity to resign from Li Shimin. Li Shimin appointed him as Huojing county magistrate. He has already left. It can be said that Li Chunfeng is now the leader of Chang''an city gate.


    "Return to Taishiling! No news came." the Taoist replied respectfully.


    "We can''t wait any longer. Now all 100 schools are forging ahead, and other 100 schools are going against the current. Only Taoism is declining. If something goes wrong, I''m afraid Taoism will regret for life." Li Chunfeng said firmly.


    Today, the development momentum of other 100 schools is extremely rapid. In order to complete the unification, Taoism has abandoned its martial arts and denied the Taoist alchemy. Now the Taoists of the waidan school are simply in a vein to study the art of material immortality, and even closer to the Mohist school.


    However, I didn''t expect that Taoism abolished its alchemy, while Buddhism sacrificed its relic weapon, which immediately put Taoism at a disadvantage. In the long run, Taoism will surely decline day by day.


    "But now Taoism and Buddhism have not torn their faces. If Tai Shiling suddenly provokes the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, I''m afraid it will cause criticism in the world!" the Taoist behind him said with a worried face.


    Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "although Ben Taishi order can''t take the initiative to provoke the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, it doesn''t mean that the former Taishi order can''t."


    When the Taoist heard the speech, he suddenly said, "is it that what Taishiling said is


    Li Chunfeng sneered, "yes, it''s Fu Yi, the former Taishi."


    The Taoist frowned and said, "although Lord Fu once served as Taishi Ling, he is a Confucian."


    Li Chunfeng showed a mysterious smile and said, "do you think Confucianism will sit back and watch Buddhism grow up this time?"


    Kong Jiazhong.


    Kong huisuo is sometimes frowning and thinking hard, sometimes writing hard, and constantly compiling his painstaking dictionary.


    "Bang bang!"


    A knock on the door came. Kong huisuo immediately frightened a clever man. He quickly hid the manuscript and took out a copy of the Analects of Confucius and put it in front of the table. Then he shouted, "come in!"


    "Young master, second uncle, please go ahead." a disciple of Confucius pushed the door and entered.


    "OK, I''ll come right away!" Kong huisuo nodded, got up and followed the servant away.


    When Kong huisuo arrived at the conference hall, he saw that his second uncle and Kong Yingda had already been waiting there.


    "See uncle, see second uncle!" Kong huisuo said respectfully.


    "Now we have to discuss Confucianism. You are a member of the Kong family, and you are also qualified to sit in." Kong Yingda motioned Kong huisuo to sit down and said that now all families are cultivating the next generation. Needless to say, even Wu Meiniang, an apprentice of the Mo family, is famous in Chang''an city because of her perseverance in making silver mirrors, Only then did Kong huisuo have the opportunity to sit in.


    "Thank you, uncle!" Kong huisuo said expectantly.


    Kong Yingda nodded and said, "today we are discussing about Buddhism. I believe you have also heard the recent storm between Buddhism and ink magazine."


    Kong huisuo nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook his head, revealing a blank expression.


    Kong Desheng, the second uncle, sneered and said, "don''t pretend. Everyone in the Confucius house doesn''t know you''re secretly buying ink magazines."


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help but show embarrassment and said with a smile: "grandson, it''s also to know himself and his enemy. This is why he secretly bought ink magazines."


    "There''s no need to be sneaky in the future. The Kong family still has a lot of tolerance. However, I have to say that the boy of the Mohist school is really bold. These issues of the Mohist journal have overturned the old foundation of the Buddhist school. He''s not like the fools of the Confucian Journal, who are afraid of hands and feet in everything." Kong Desheng stroked his beard and shouted.


    I don''t know. In a comparison, the gap between Confucian journal and Mexican journal is high. Mexican journal doesn''t hesitate to offend Buddhism and directly open the scandal of Buddhism''s usury to kill people and shelter murderers, while Confucian journal will only whitewash peace.


    In terms of content, the Mexican journal knows very well even yoga in India. In addition, doctors publicize the knowledge of first aid. It can be said that there are a lot of dry goods. In contrast, the dry articles in the Confucian journal are just like chewing wax.


    Even if Kong Desheng no longer appreciated the Mohist family, he had to admit that the Mohist family did have several brushes.


    "What the second uncle said is very true. His grandson just appreciates Merton''s behavior, which is why he intersects with him." Kong huisuo quickly echoed.


    "You still have friends with it. Now the Mohist school has made such achievements. Even the boy of the ancestral family is quite extraordinary. What about you?" Kong Desheng looked at Kong huisuo with hatred for iron and steel.


    Kong huisuo would be ashamed if he had a dictionary at ordinary times. However, now that he has a dictionary in hand, he has greatly increased his confidence. He secretly decided to let the dictionary be compiled and change his second uncle''s view of him.


    Kong Yingda could not help sighing. If he put aside the identity of Mohism, Merton could be said to be the most proud disciple of the Imperial College. He was amazed by the theory that people''s daily use is Tao, let alone the continuous popular poems.


    The three had different thoughts, but they soon got back to the point.


    "What we are discussing today is the relic Dharma meeting of daci''en temple." Kong Yingda said positively.


    "Relic Dharma association!"


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help but be silent. Naturally, he knew the grand event in Chang''an city.


    "What Buddhist Buddhist Association! It''s just a Buddhist move to restore the reputation!" Kong Desheng sneered. Anyone with a clear eye can see that the purpose of holding Buddhist Association in daci''en temple is the precarious reputation of Buddhism.


    "However, at present, it seems that the Buddhist move is right!" Kong Yingda sighed. The Buddhist move was more than right, which surprised everyone. No one thought that the Buddha bone relic had such a great charm, and it was only the relic of an ordinary eminent monk. If the Buddha relic enshrined in fahua Temple appeared in Chang''an City, I''m afraid the momentum would be ten times higher than now, which would suddenly break the existing balance of all schools of thought.


    "Confucius said," I don''t speak to confuse ghosts and gods. From my nephew''s point of view, Buddhism is just taking advantage of the ignorance of ordinary people. "Kong huisuo nodded.


    Everyone nodded, but everyone knew that as long as there was a Buddhist bone relic, Buddhism would prosper sooner or later,


    Kong Yingda had a headache. A rising Mohist school was enough to give Confucianism a headache. How should Confucianism deal with itself in the face of a rising Buddhist school.


    Kong Desheng also frowned and thought hard. Although Buddhism infringed on the interests of Confucianism to a certain extent, it is not worth provoking a theoretical dispute here at the moment.


    "Boy, there''s a sentence I don''t know what to say!" Kong huisuo suddenly got up and said in a straight way.


    "But it doesn''t hurt to talk!" Kong Yingda waved.


    "Second uncle Gong has always compared me with brother mo. however, as far as I know, Mo magazine was the first to deal with this Buddhist storm. I would like to ask why Mo magazine has been taking the initiative to expose Buddhism. It is not because Buddhism and Mo have grievances, but because Mo occupies a just position, so he has a clear conscience! Kong Sheng insisted Zi didn''t say anything to confuse ghosts and gods, but encountered the crazy act of Buddha bone relic, which ran rampant in Chang''an City and was indifferent. It doesn''t deserve to be called a saint. "Kong huisuo said firmly.


    Suddenly the house was quiet, and they couldn''t help falling into meditation.


    After a long time, Kong Desheng took a long breath: "up to now, I really need to make a stand."


    Kong Yingda nodded heavily.


    Soon, a special issue of Confucian magazine published Kong Sheng''s view that his son didn''t speak and confused ghosts and gods appeared in the streets of Chang''an City, and the signature was impressively written with Kong Desheng''s name. The descendants of the Kong Family spoke out in person against the Buddhist Buddhist Buddhist relic Dharma meeting, making the wind direction of the whole Chang''an city dedicated to Buddhist bone relic a meal.


    Then Fu Yi, an anti Buddhist fighter, once again denounced the abolition of the Buddha. This time, the tide of support for Fu Yi by the ministers of the central court rose sharply, but the voice that originally supported the Buddhism was silent.


    So far, the five influential hundred schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Mohism have clearly expressed their views against Buddhism. Buddhism is once again in crisis, and this crisis is much more dangerous than before.

 Chapter 790

    "Da Ci''en Temple mistook me for Buddhism!"


    In Jifa temple, master farIn roared. He tried his best to contact people, which calmed the tide of anti Buddha in chaotang. But I didn''t expect that Da Ci''en Temple would not stop at all. First, crooked people found Tianzhu ascetic monks to bluff and deceive. As a result, they were ruthlessly exposed by the Mohists and hanged by doctors.


    However, if one plan failed, another plan came into being. It was really good to use the Buddhist bone relic of master Ci''en to save the Buddhist believers. The problem is that the effect was so good that it even caused a strong rebound between Confucianism and Taoism, causing the original situation of Buddhism to collapse in an instant.


    The abbot of his colleagues in the audience bowed his head with a guilty conscience. He never thought that things would come to this point.


    "Master Falin, calm down! My colleagues are also bent on Buddhism. They just do bad things with good intentions." the abbot of Huichang nearby put his hands together and gathered more than ten eminent monks around him. I''m afraid the monks around Chang''an City have gathered in Jifa temple to discuss countermeasures.


    However, it is not surprising to think that now the Buddhists are in such a crisis. Naturally, these monks cannot wait to die. Master Falin is a Buddhist guard, a Dharma protector and a monk who is proficient in Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. All the monks have come to Jifa temple for advice.


    "It''s no use blaming daci''en temple now. Now the most important thing is how to get through the crisis." an eminent monk said anxiously, and all the eminent monks nodded one after another.


    Master farIn said coldly, "if the Buddha wants to get through this crisis, the first thing to do is to stop all the actions of the great Ci''en Temple and don''t do any abnormal actions."


    The abbot of Tongren suddenly looked embarrassed and perspired. Although master farIn''s words were embarrassing, he did not wrong Da Ci''en Temple at all. This time, the storm arose because of Da Ci''en Temple. Each remedy of Da Ci''en Temple seemed to have a significant effect, but it dragged the Buddhism into the abyss again and again.


    "Yes, this is a critical moment. Do more and make more mistakes. Don''t act rashly in daci''en temple!" Abbot Huichang echoed, and other eminent monks nodded one after another. In fact, if Buddhism did not pay attention to the reports of Mo magazine, even if its reputation was damaged for a short time, it would recover slowly, which is much better than falling into crisis now.


    Tongren Abbot helplessly bowed his head and said, "remember, Da Ci''en Temple, this will end the relic Dharma meeting. From now on, immediately close the temple and reflect."


    In fact, in the view of all monks, there is nothing wrong with the practice of daci''en temple. Even if they are in the background of daci''en temple, I''m afraid they can only do so. However, the situation is developing too fast. This seemingly perfect scheme is full of loopholes in front of the rapidly developing hundreds of schools, which can''t help but make the abbot feel oppressed.


    "Second, we should immediately launch the relationship between the court and the church, and strive for the courtiers to speak for the Buddhism at all costs." master farIn said firmly.


    In fact, in the court hall, many courtiers stayed in the temple on the way to the examination, which gave them a feeling of incense. Many ministers were Buddhist believers. Now most of the scholars are opposed to Buddhism. If they want to make a start for Buddhism, I''m afraid they will bleed a lot.


    "This is related to the life and death of Buddhism. We are duty bound!" all the monks said together.


    "Third, contact Songshan Shaolin immediately and ask the abbot of Shaolin to come forward. The Shaolin monk once saved the holy master. With this favor, our Buddhism can have a glimmer of vitality." master farIn said firmly.


    The monks nodded their heads and looked at master Falin with appreciative eyes. They believed that they could certainly get through the Buddhist crisis.


    "But Shaolin is thousands of miles away from Chang''an. I''m afraid it''s too late for me to ask the abbot of Shaolin now." the abbot frowned. Now the chaotang is in crisis. I''m afraid it''s too late to go to Shaolin for help.


    Master Falin sneered: "if it is naturally late at the usual speed, if you use the carriage of Mohism to Luoyang, after you arrive in Luoyang, the temple will naturally arrange cars and horses to Shaolin. In this way, time is enough."


    "But now the relationship between Buddhism and Mohism?" the monks frowned.


    "What''s the difficulty? Just dress up. Besides, the Mohists can open their doors and do business without people taking a bus." master farIn Lang said.


    Abbot Huichang nodded and said, "I''m an elf. I should be able to take this responsibility."


    Master farIn agreed: "I''ve seen him before. He''s really a rare rising star in Buddhism. We can rest assured that he will come out."


    Tongren Abbot sneered: "yes, the Mohist never thought that it was the Mohist carriage that could save the Buddhist family in the end."


    After the discussion, the monks left one after another and took action respectively.


    The first action was the daci''en temple, which ended immediately after the huge Buddhist Association in Chang''an city. Then the daci''en Temple chanted scriptures behind closed doors and no longer received pilgrims.


    Subsequently, the major monasteries launched the relationship between the court and the church one after another, lobbying the major courtiers to defend the Buddhism.


    Confucianism and Taoism naturally noticed the movement of Buddhism and began to make collective efforts, and the whole hall suddenly surged.


    At the same time, at the east gate of Chang''an City, a handsome young man stood tall, slender, elegant and very eye-catching. He was the debate machine bearing the vital task of Buddhism and was waiting for the carriage to Luoyang.


    In order to go to Songshan Shaolin to deliver a letter, he wore secular clothes and a hat to cover up his bald head and ring scars. However, this is not suspicious. Now, under the leadership of Mohist, more and more people cut their hair braids in Chang''an city. This is not uncommon in Chang''an city.


    However, although mojiazi''s haircut saved a lot of trouble for the defense machine, the defense machine did not like the haircut in his heart. Among the pilgrims he once received, although all those with flat heads cut their hair like monks, none of them is a Buddhist believer, but a firm hairdresser, and many believe in Buddhism.


    He once thought that these people who cut their hair were all children of Mohism. Finally, he found that it was not their nature, but those who had no faith. If they could break the God in their hearts and cut their hair braids, how could they easily believe in other religions.


    "Oh! The little minister is handsome! Where are you going?" a lady with heavy makeup looked at the handsome face of the debate machine and couldn''t help laughing boldly. Women in the Tang Dynasty were more open. When the debate machine was a monk, although some women teased him, it wouldn''t be too much because of his identity.


    However, at the moment, the debate is a secular dress. Coupled with the understanding of Buddhism on weekdays, there is a mysterious temperament in their behavior, which makes ladies flock to it.


    "Little monk... I''m going to Songshan mountain." Buddhism stresses that monks don''t lie and can''t help telling the truth.


    "Songshan! Does this minister have to go to school? Songyang Academy in Songshan is famous!" the lady''s eyes lit up and looked at the defense machine with a little more appreciation. She didn''t expect that this Xiaosheng not only had outstanding appearance, but also had high aspirations.


    Although the defense plane went on a long trip for the first time, he also knew that this task was important and couldn''t cope with it. Fortunately, he didn''t say the purpose of going to Shaolin.


    Soon, the carriage in Mojia village was ready and drove to the village.


    The defense plane was relieved. She bent down and got into the carriage and found a place to sit down. However, she didn''t expect that the lady also took the initiative to get on the bus and sit next to the defense plane.


    Along the way, the carriage was fast, but the debate Machine sat like a needle and felt. Fortunately, the debate machine also knew the weight, shut up and let the lady beg for nothing. Only then did she bitterly let the debate machine go.


    When the sun set, the Mohist chariots and horses finally arrived in Luoyang City. The defense plane also got off. Then they immediately handed over to the monks of Luoyang temple, took the special chariots and horses and went straight to Song Mountain.


    At the moment, there is only one person on the carriage, and there is no quiet noise of a lady. On the contrary, the defense machine is lost. There is no doubt that this trip to Shaolin will bring a lifelong unforgettable memory to the defense machine.

 Chapter 791

    "A hundred schools of thought contend!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin couldn''t help feeling headache. How could he not know the disputes about Buddhism among the people in the chaotang hall. He originally wanted to let the hundred family dispute be solved by himself, but he didn''t expect it to become more and more intense.


    It is well known that there were hundreds of schools of thought in the spring and Autumn period, but in the court, the hundred schools of thought never stopped. Every hundred schools are racking their brains to develop their own theories and advocate their own views.


    Nowadays, there is only one more Buddhist school after Buddhism was introduced into the Central Plains. Of course, the most fierce struggle is the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism. An exotic religion has developed and expanded in the Central Plains in a short time. Naturally, it has made many taboos of hundreds of schools. For a long time, the anti Buddhism proposition has never been broken, but it is not so fierce this time, A hundred schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Mohism collectively opposed Buddhism.


    "It''s OK for the other hundred schools to say that Mohism is involved in something!" Li Shimin looked at the information and said angrily. In his opinion, the other hundred schools have reasons to oppose Buddhism, but Mohism is not involved! And this time Mohism is more than mixing, it is the fuse.


    Pound said with a wry smile: "it is said that this time it was not done by Marquis Mo, but by the strange Confucian Master Li who advocated exposing the scandal of Buddhism."


    "The emperor is not strict! It is duty bound. If" Lord Fu flatters me, I can''t compare with Lord Fu''s integrity. "Merton said modestly.


    Fu Yi laughed and said, "I have only two hobbies in my life, one is anti Buddhism, the other is good wine."


    "It''s just the good wine produced by Mohism to relieve thousands of worries. I''ll send some to Lord Fu to taste some other day." Merton Lang said.


    Fu Yi was overjoyed when he heard the speech and said, "that''s great. My life''s wish is not to die of old age, but to die of drunkenness. After death, it is written on my tombstone that Fu Yi, a white cloud man in the green mountains, died of drunkenness. Alas!"


    Merton Lang said, "if so, didn''t lord Fu create the epitaph? It will be recorded in later generations that the elegy began in Tian Heng and the epitaph was created in Fu Yi. Isn''t it a good story?"


    Before the Tang Dynasty, people didn''t write epitaphs after they died, and I''m afraid it began with Fu Yi.


    "The elegy began in Tian Heng, and the epitaph was created in Fu Yi." Fu Yi''s eyes lit up, and he couldn''t help but rejoice. He didn''t expect that his unintentional move would have such far-reaching significance.


    Other courtiers stared at the two people in a daze. They talked in a few words from anti Buddha to lettering on the tombstone after death. I''m afraid few people can catch this way of chatting.


    However, many ministers vaguely regretted that the epitaph would be famous in history as Merton said, but they didn''t expect to be easily obtained by Fu Yi, an alcoholic. At the moment, they just want to follow suit. First, they don''t know whether they died in front of Fu Yi. Second, with Merton''s Elegy, it began in Tian Heng. The epitaph was created in Fu Yi''s famous words. I''m afraid no one can take it away.

 Chapter 792

    With the sound of the bell, the Mao hour arrived, and the great court meeting officially began.


    The ministers entered the Tai Chi hall in turn, found their own position and sat down. Merton didn''t often go to court and had no fixed position. He naturally chose his old position.


    "Your Majesty has arrived!" with Pound''s sharp voice, Li Shimin appeared in front of the Dragon chair.


    "Please see your majesty!" all the ministers bowed down and shouted in unison.


    "You Aiqing, keep your body flat." Li Shimin lifted his right hand falsely, and the ministers got up.


    "If you have something to start, leave the court." pound shouted in accordance with the usual practice when he saw that the court etiquette had been completed.


    However, as soon as Pound''s voice fell, he saw an old figure emerge from the crowd and suddenly shouted, "minister Fu Yi asked his majesty to destroy the Buddha!"


    "Kill the Buddha!"


    All the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty were stunned at Fu Yi. No one thought that Fu Yi was unwilling to wait for a moment. He went straight to the theme. His proposition was even more radical. He directly destroyed the Buddha from the original Buddha.


    "Kill the Buddha!" even Li Shimin was startled. Naturally, he knew that Buddhism was a little fishy. He just wanted to beat it. He never thought of killing the Buddha.


    "Fu Yi, are you not afraid to offend the gods because you are so bold?" Yu Zhining shouted angrily.


    Regardless of the public''s eyes, Fu Yisi proudly said, "Buddha, the law of barbarians! It was only introduced to China in the Eastern Han Dynasty. If there are gods, they are also barbarian gods. Can they manage the land of the Central Plains?"


    Many ministers who did not believe in Buddhism could not help laughing. Buddhism has been introduced into the Central Plains for only a few hundred years. It can be said that its foundation is not stable. Moreover, some people who can rank in the court really believe in gods.


    Yan shigu nodded and said: "according to the history secretary, in the 10th year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Ming of Han sent envoys to the western regions to seek Buddhist statues and classics, and invited monks such as Kaye moteng and Zhu flange to Luoyang. When Yu Zhining was established in Luoyang, he couldn''t help taking a deep breath: "Although Buddhism is a foreign religion, it is good for us in the Tang Dynasty to attract people to be good and persuade the world. If we destroy it rashly, it will not only be in danger of offending the gods, but if it will damage the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty, aren''t you Fu Yi a sinner in the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin''s eyes shrunk when he heard the speech. Although he vigorously advocated the elimination of superstition and the Mohist School cracked many fairy legends, the fear of ghosts and gods can not be eliminated for a while. Especially for emperors, they think they are ordered by heaven, and they are taboo about ghosts and gods.


    Fu Yi sniffed at the speech and said, "there was no Buddhism before the Eastern Han Dynasty. However, in the past, the three emperors and five emperors reigned, the world was peaceful, and the people had a happy birthday test. However, there was no Buddha in China. Yin Tang was also 100 years old, King Wen of Zhou was 97 years old, and King Wu was 93 years old. At this time, Buddhism had not entered China, so it can be seen that it was not because of Buddhism."


    Fu Yi cited scriptures and cited the examples of Ming Jun before Buddhism was introduced into the Central Plains. Suddenly, his words changed:


    "However, Buddhism began to exist in the Central Plains only after the reign of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty. However, the reign of Emperor Ming was only 18 years. During the northern and Southern Dynasties, more and more people worshipped Buddha in the imperial court, but the age was shorter and shorter. Only emperor Liang Wu reigned for 48 years and worshipped Buddha many times before he died, but he was starved to death in Taicheng and died. It can be seen that the fate of the imperial court and the country has nothing to do with whether to worship Buddha or not."


    It has to be said that Fu Yi was indeed well prepared, sharp in words, quoted scriptures, compared the regime changes before and after the introduction of Buddhism, and refuted the theory of affecting the national movement.


    Yu Zhining couldn''t help humming and argued: "although it is still late for Buddhism to be introduced into the Central Plains, it can spread so quickly in the Central Plains and be respected by all dynasties, which is enough to prove that it is beneficial to the imperial court."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding. Although Buddhism has its shortcomings, its biggest role is to persuade people to bear it, which is of great benefit to the rule of the court. This is also why Li Shimin still took tolerant measures to Buddhism despite the worship of Taoism in the Tang Dynasty.


    "There may be some benefits, but the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Please count the crimes of Buddhism!" Fu Yi said proudly.


    "Accurate playing!" Li Shimin said expressionless.


    "First, Buddhism doesn''t work, monks don''t cultivate, don''t work, sit and chant scriptures all day, which is not beneficial to the government and the public." Fu Yi solemnly said.


    Almost all courtiers subconsciously nodded at this point. Among the hundreds of schools, Confucianism is engaged in politics, Legalists solve cases, doctors cure patients and save people, Mohists are skilled craftsmen, and even the previous Taoists who cultivate immortality and seek Tao have benefited the world a lot because of the gunpowder, hair dyeing secret skills and cement of waidan, but Buddhism is useless and has made no contribution to the society at all.


    "Second, Buddhism encroaches on land and does not pay taxes on the land under its name. In the long run, the land tax of chaotang is becoming less and less."


    "Third, if you want to enter Buddhism, you must abandon your family, abandon your children and abstain from human desires. There are three kinds of unfilial, and no offspring is great. This is the sin of Buddhism."


    "Fourth, Confucius said: respect ghosts and gods and stay away. Buddhism intimidates the secular people with the things of ghosts and gods in the name of eighteen layers of hell."


    "Fifthly, shielding criminals......"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Fu Yi counted the sins of Buddhism one by one in the court hall. Finally, he proudly said, "if the Buddha really shows his spirit and can lower the disaster, it will be added to the minister. The minister has no regrets."


    In an instant, all the courtiers were silent. What Fu Yi said was justified. If he had not been worried about the supernatural of Buddhism, I''m afraid many people would have nodded in agreement.


    For a moment, the situation was extremely unfavorable to Buddhism.


    "I object. As far as I know, Fu Yi is so resolute against Buddhism, not for public interests, but for personal resentment." suddenly Yu Zhining shouted.


    "Private resentment?" chaotang was not only in an uproar, but also looked at Yu Zhining puzzled.


    Yu Zhining showed an expression of wisdom and said, "Your Majesty, as far as I know, the reason why Lord Fu attacked the Buddhist family is because he lacked money on his way to Beijing for the exam and was not ready to borrow from the Buddhist temple. Only then did he feel resentment and attack the Buddhist family many times."


    "Is there such a thing?" Li Shimin couldn''t help staring at Fu Yi with suspicious eyes.


    Fu Yi couldn''t help blushing and said, "back to your majesty, Weichen really failed to borrow money from the Buddhist temple. However, this is not Weichen''s selfish intention to impeach the Buddha, and the several charges of Weichen''s impeachment are well-documented."


    Merton could not help sighing. He had to say that Fu Yi''s attack was indeed lethal. However, he was interrupted by Yu Zhining and immediately lost his momentum. It was impossible to win the Buddhism in one go.


    "In addition, during the imperial examination, the Capital Inn is full, a room is hard to find, and the price is quite high. Many Buddhist temples let scholars stay for free, and even choose their excellent subsidies. There is no suspicion of buying scholars'' heart. As far as I know, adult Yu has stayed in Buddhist temples."


    Fu Yi suddenly gritted his teeth and burst out a fierce message.


    Li Shimin''s face sank when he heard the speech. Other Li Shimin could not care, but he was very sensitive to officials. If officials got the interests of Buddhism, they would naturally favor Buddhism.

 Chapter 793

    Yu Zhining couldn''t help blushing and said, "when I hurried to the exam, I really ran out of money and stayed in the Buddhist temple. However, after the trustee sent money from home, I had already doubled the incense money back to the Buddhist temple. My gratitude and resentment have long been over. I have studied the way of saints and respected the way of Confucius and Mencius all my life. How can I change to other schools.


    Fu Yi sneered: "I didn''t borrow money from the Buddhist temple, and naturally I didn''t have money disputes. How can I report my personal resentment."


    "OK!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "you are all familiar with the books of sages. I naturally believe in your loyalty."


    According to this, there are too many officials who have received the favor of Buddhism. If they are tracked down, they may be more involved. Li Shimin wisely waved the topic away.


    However, Fu Yi''s counterattack was not ineffective. Some ministers who had received the favor of Buddhism in the court hall no longer dared to speak openly for the Buddhism, and the atmosphere of the whole court hall could not help solidifying.


    Seeing the impasse, Yu Zhining couldn''t help looking anxiously at an important minister with a childlike face and Hefa in the front. Xiao Yu was born in Nanliang. He was the younger brother of empress Xiao in the Sui Dynasty. Nanliang Buddhism flourished. Influenced by Buddhism since childhood, Xiao Yu was naturally the strongest supporter of Buddhism.


    Seeing this, Xiao Yu had to come forward and said, "Your Majesty, although the Buddhists have made mistakes in recent days, it was only done by the daci''en temple, not the whole Buddhist temple. On the contrary, most Buddhists are very clean and compassionate."


    Xiao Xuan was an important official in the court and had a great voice. He came forward to support Buddhism and immediately made many people agree.


    Even Li Shimin nodded in agreement. Li Shimin liked to take a small number of bodyguards to observe the terrain in person when he was leading a war. When he attacked Wang Shichong in Luoyang, when he explored the terrain again, he was caught by Wang Shichong''s soldiers and horses and chased them desperately. Finally, he was saved by the Shaolin monk of Song Mountain and convinced by Shaolin''s compassion. Naturally, he agreed with Xiao Yu and didn''t think of Shaolin It will also hide dirt and accept dirt like da Ci''en Temple.


    Fu Yi saw that Xiao Yu took the lead in supporting Buddhism and the situation in chaotang changed greatly. Although he had expected the situation for a long time, Fu Yi was not discouraged this time because he also had a like-minded comrade in arms, mojiazi.


    At present, Fu Yi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, many Buddhist temples don''t work. They force Mr. and Mrs. Zhao to seize good fields, shield criminals, and even allow evil monks to deceive the public and deceive believers. This is a revelation of the Mohist school. I think mohou must have another opinion on whether to destroy the Buddha."


    As soon as Fu Yi''s voice fell, everyone immediately focused on Merton.


    Morton couldn''t help laughing bitterly at Fu Yi''s behavior of selling his teammates, but he didn''t have anything in his heart. After all, these things were done by Mo magazine. In the eyes of the world, his position was doomed long ago.


    "Merton, do you have any objection to what Fu Aiqing said." Li Shimin saw Merton''s helplessness. He thought Merton would be honest for a while after marriage. He didn''t expect the boy to keep tossing.


    Merton had to come forward, bend over and bow around and said, "as for what Lord Fu said, boy, first of all, we must declare that the scandal reported by the ink magazine about Buddhism has real evidence and is not deliberately aimed at Buddhism. It can even be said that the ink magazine also reports ruthlessly whenever there are crimes committed by Confucianism, Taoism, Legalists, doctors and historians."


    Many courtiers could not help but shrink their eyes and looked at Merton with vigilance. This time, the short articles in the ink magazine had already made the Buddhists worried, and the power of the ink magazine frightened everyone.


    "What about Mohism?" Yu Zhining sneered.


    Merton said without hesitation, "the Mohists are naturally willing to accept the supervision of Confucian journals."


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little. After running the ink magazine for more than a year, he naturally knew the role of newspapers and periodicals. On the one hand, he popularized useful knowledge and made it widely known to people all over the world. On the other hand, he supervised injustice, which can be said to be quite effective, greatly reducing some overt crimes.


    "It''s so best. What do you think of Lord Fu''s proposal to destroy the Buddha?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Kill Buddha!" Merton was shocked, as if he had heard the shocking news for the first time. He shook his head and said, "I naturally object."


    "Oppose!" at this moment, all the courtiers could not believe their ears. No one thought that the Mohist school, the vanguard of anti Buddha, opposed the destruction of Buddha, which was beyond everyone''s expectation.


    Fu Yi looked at Morton with a red face. In his opinion, Mozi must be a firm non Buddhist. Did Mozi recognize that the situation in Manchuria was wrong, and he was immediately disappointed, and a sorrowful mood arose spontaneously.


    Other courtiers also looked at Merton thoughtfully, some despised, some regretted, and more lost. It seems that the Mohist who once loved to toss like a catfish is gone.


    Only Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously. It was easy to change his nature. He didn''t believe that Merton would change his temper so easily.


    Sure enough, Merton looked anxiously at Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, think twice! It''s too early to kill the Buddha now. Doctors also pay attention to treating patients and saving people. I beg your majesty to give the Buddhist family another chance to save the Buddhist family!"


    "It''s too early to kill the Buddha!"


    "Save the Buddhist family!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All of a sudden, everyone looked at the mouth and said amazing Merton.


    "It''s too early to kill the Buddha!" Fu Yi shook his head for a long time. Mohist Zi said it was too early to kill the Buddha. Naturally, he agreed with his idea of killing the Buddha, and his heart suddenly felt like a confidant.


    "Mohou is too arrogant." Xiao Yu laughed angrily, and other courtiers were excited and scolded Merton one after another.


    Looking at the excited ministers, Li Shimin bowed his head with a headache. He knew that Merton would not give up so easily.


    "So, you still agree to kill Buddha, but think that Buddhism is not suffering enough now." Li Shimin asked angrily.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Weichen believes that if the Buddhism does not change, the two martial arts will destroy the Buddha again in 200 years at most."


    "Two martial arts destroy Buddha!" suddenly everyone fell into a dead silence. Although Buddhism is known as mercy, it has two dark histories: one is that Emperor Wu of the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed Buddha, and the other is that Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed Buddha.


    It was only after these two events that Fu Yi made such a radical proposal to destroy the Buddha.


    Yan shigu, the historian, couldn''t help lowering his eyelids. He was familiar with history. Naturally, he knew that Buddhism seemed to have suffered heavy losses, but it was not as innocent as the world said.


    Not a few of the ministers were proficient in history books. Naturally, they knew these two periods of history, and their original idea of supporting Buddhism was immediately dispelled.


    Even Li Shimin can''t help but feel sorry for it. Two emperors have done something to destroy the Buddha. It''s hard not to guarantee that there will be a third time to destroy the Buddha.


    Morton shook his head regretfully and said, "it''s a pity that after two disasters, the Buddha still made mistakes and took the road of tragedy again. Now the boy has foreseen that the Buddhist tragedy is about to repeat, and he won''t save his life."


    Xiao Xuan and Yu Zhining couldn''t help but spit blood against each other. Before, mojiazi also shouted to fight and kill the Buddhists. Once they opened their mouth, they became great heroes to save the Buddhists. It''s shameless than politicians.

 Chapter 794

    Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously, but found that Merton was still calm and cautious in the face of the forced gaze of the Manchu civil and military.


    "Then tell me about how Buddhism repeats its mistakes so that it will destroy the Buddha again in less than 200 years." Li Shimin asked solemnly.


    Other courtiers could not help but hold their breath and stared at Merton quietly. Although Merton was unreliable, his vision was recognized by the world, and his amazing words were confirmed one by one.


    "If you want to know when the third killing of Buddha will come, you need to understand the reasons for the first two killing of Buddha." Merton said proudly.


    Li Chunfeng was embarrassed by the Taishi on one side. I''m afraid the Taoist school didn''t do less to kill the Buddha twice before. Now Merton took the initiative to mention it, which is to expose the dark material of the Taoist school.


    Fortunately, Merton scruples about the face of Taoism and doesn''t involve this too much. Instead, he said: "in addition to the court struggle and the belief that Buddhism is a Hu religion to prove its legitimacy, there is another most important factor, that is, population and land tax."


    "Population and land tax!" Yan shigu couldn''t help nodding. He read history books all over. Naturally, he knew the reason why Buddhism was robbed at that time.


    Other courtiers were not stunned. They heard this view for the first time.


    "Since the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Buddhism has flourished and Buddhist temples have been widely distributed. All the land under the name of Buddhist temples has been exempted from land taxes in all dynasties. During the northern and Southern Dynasties, social unrest, the Northern Dynasty levied excessive taxes in order to fight, and the people have fled to the empty door one after another in order to avoid heavy taxes. For a while, Buddhism has flourished and there are as many as 30000 Buddhist temples in the north of the river, including monks and nuns At that time, the population in the north of Dajiang was only more than 30 million. Buddhism already accounted for one sixteenth of the population and one tenth of the land in the north of Dajiang. So many people didn''t work, meditated and chanted Buddha all day, so many land didn''t pay land taxes, and the Treasury was empty. As a result, the Treasury of the imperial court was empty and the army had no source of troops. What would you do if you were a minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty ? "said Merton in one breath.


    There was a sudden silence in the audience. I''m afraid no Dynasty will tolerate this situation. There is only one result, that is to destroy the Buddha.


    "This is only the Northern Dynasty. If you add the Southern Dynasty, I''m afraid there will be more Buddhist temples and monks and nuns. When I read the history books, I couldn''t help but rise up angrily and write a poem for you to appreciate." Merton chanted directly regardless of the ministers.


    "Thousands of miles of warblers sing green and red, and the wine flag of Shuicun mountain is windy. There are 48000 temples in the two dynasties, and how many buildings are in the misty rain."


    Poetry is a good poem, but a well-known good poem. However, the hearts of the courtiers are as heavy as a mountain. Du Mu''s 480 temples written by Jiang nanchun are just fictitious, while Merton''s direct realism, including those of the Northern Dynasty, has a total of 48000 temples. These shocking figures shocked everyone.


    The courtiers looked hard at Yan shigu. I''m afraid only he had the most say in whether he was as Merton said.


    Facing the eyes of officials, Yan shigu nodded heavily and said, "a hundred years have passed, and the specific number can''t be counted, but it should be little different."


    Many ministers immediately took a breath. Officials who had sympathized with Erwu''s killing Buddha immediately stopped talking.


    Fu Yi looked at Merton with admiration. He was in a semi retired state and had no contact with the Mohists at ordinary times. Now he saw that Merton quoted scriptures and used a history book and poetry to achieve the effect that he couldn''t achieve many times.


    Even Li Shimin couldn''t help but take a breath from his heart. As an emperor, if he was in the position of emperor Wei Wu, I''m afraid he would make the same decision. It has nothing to do with faith and kindness. Sometimes when he sits in the position of emperor, I''m afraid he can''t help it.


    "How much money does it cost to build so many temples, not counting the copper Buddha statues, gold plating, and the daily expenses of more than two million monks and nuns. I''m afraid that building brick roads with three vertical and five horizontal diagrams is more than enough. During the northern and Southern Dynasties, the northern Dynasty was so powerful that the previous dynasty unified the world, I''m afraid the two martial arts killed the Buddha. Merton carefully calculated an economic account for all the ministers.


    Dai Zhou in the second row couldn''t help nodding. Now the Tang Dynasty knows the benefits of brick roads, and the construction of three vertical and five horizontal plans has become a recognized thing in the court. However, due to the lack of money and food, the construction process is slow. If there are so many temples and 2 million monks and nuns in the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid Dai Zhou will immediately become a firm supporter of killing Buddha.


    However, although Dai Zhou recognized Merton''s words, he knew that Merton was talking about the northern and Southern Dynasties. Today, the Buddhist schools in the Tang Dynasty are not as grand as they used to be.


    Sure enough, Xiao Pang Leng on one side hummed, "what Marquis Mo said was a matter of the previous dynasty. Now the Tang Dynasty is a prosperous era. Monks keep themselves in line. How can they be punished without mistakes."


    Li Shimin could not help nodding slightly. Now the Buddhists are not too deeply troubled. In addition, the Buddhists are kind to him. If they rashly move the Buddhists, I''m afraid he will suffer a reputation. In addition, Li Shimin is afraid of the huge number of Buddhists and the strange and unpredictable things of ghosts and gods. He is unwilling to move the Buddhists lightly.


    Merton sneered: "there is really nothing different about Buddhism now, but today''s Buddhism has changed a little from that before Erwu killed the Buddha. It''s just the old way. In less than 200 years, when the Buddhist temple is determined to reproduce the disadvantages before Erwu killed the Buddha, the third time to kill the Buddha can be expected. If the Buddhism still doesn''t repent, the fourth time to kill the Buddha is not impossible."


    In later generations, after two defeats of Buddhism, Buddhists are still stubborn, so that Li Yan, Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty, and chairong, Emperor Shizong of the Zhou Dynasty, destroy Buddhism twice, which is known as the misfortune of three martial arts and one sect. At this point, Buddhists can learn from the pain and reflect on themselves. If Buddhists at this moment can wake up, the disaster of two defeats of Buddhism in the future can certainly be eliminated.


    "All this is just one side of your story. Do you think you can wantonly decide the fate of Buddhism by boasting about a few old things of the former dynasty? Do you really think you can wantonly point out the affairs of other hundred schools after reviving Mohism?" Xiao Yu sneered.


    Merton shook his head and said, "naturally, the Mohist school will not interfere in the affairs of other hundred schools, and naturally, it has no intention to interfere in the affairs of the Buddhist school. What the Mohist journal reports is also unfair. The boy just can''t bear to see the disaster of destroying the Buddha repeat. Whether the Buddhist School listens to it or not naturally has nothing to do with the boy."


    Xiao Yu smiled angrily and said, "I''d like to hear how you swear that the disaster of killing Buddha will happen again."


    The other ministers could not help but calm down and focused all their eyes on Merton.


    Merton took a deep breath and said solemnly, "after emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed the Buddha, his successors adopted the policy of relaxation. However, the Buddhist family did not change. It still went its own way, but became more unscrupulous. In the sixth year of Jiande, Emperor Yu Wenyong of the northern Zhou Dynasty issued an edict to destroy the Buddha, destroy 40000 temples and force 3 million monks and nuns to return to the common customs. The editor, the household and the people, did it again for the second time."


    Many people nodded in their hearts and combined with what Mozi said before, I''m afraid Buddhism is still on the old road.


    "However, it is only 60 years since Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty killed the Buddha. Has your majesty ever counted the monasteries and monks and nuns in the Tang Dynasty?" Merton asked.


    Li Shimin was stunned and turned to look at the Taishi who made Li Chunfeng.


    Li Chunfeng stepped forward and bowed and said, "according to the statistics of the Taishi Bureau, the Tang Dynasty now has 2200 Taoist temples, 17000 Taoists, 5400 Buddhist temples and 85000 monks and nuns."


    He did not add fuel, but he played a trick and directly reported the number of Taoist temples and Taoists. By comparison, the rapid expansion of Buddhism was revealed.


    "So many?" the Manchu courtiers couldn''t help but be in an uproar.


    Although more than 5000 Buddhist temples are nothing compared with the Northern Zhou Dynasty, this is only the development of Buddhism for 60 years. From a piece of ruins, they directly surpass Taoism. This speed is not surprising.


    "There are more than 100 temples in Chang''an City alone, twice as many outside the city, and so are other cities. As Lord Fu said, these temples have a lot of land under their names, and they have a lot of output every year. They don''t have to pay taxes. Coupled with the continuous flow of incense money, they are quite rich. At this rate, for up to 200 years, the Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty will be the ones before the two martial arts destroyed the Buddha Grand occasion, how will chaotang choose? "Merton Lang said.


    Since the figure of Tianzhu was popularized by Mohists, the whole Tang Dynasty''s mathematics has made great progress. Under the leadership of Merton, people have been used to accepting the results calculated by mathematics. After Merton''s reminder, people calculate silently. Since Buddhism has not changed and continues to expand, it is very likely to appear as predicted by Merton.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be silent. As an emperor, I''m afraid he had no choice at that time. I''m afraid killing the Buddha has become the only choice.


    Xiao Yu couldn''t help but be one of them. He had made sufficient preparations before he came. He naturally wouldn''t be afraid of any opponent in terms of eloquence. However, Merton used real data to make no matter how much truth he had.


    "All this is just your guess. Can we risk offending the Buddha and going to hell after death because of your guess. Do you know that after Emperor Wu of Wei Tai and Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty killed the Buddha, most of them died suddenly in a few years, and their policy of killing the Buddha was abolished." Xiao Yu said with a flash in his eyes.


    There was an uproar in the court hall, and they repeatedly opposed the destruction of the Buddha. They looked loyal to Li Shimin.


    "The boy once boarded the clouds in a hot-air balloon, but there was no trace of immortals. The demon monk''s art of bringing the dead back to life was just a hoax. As for the 18 layers of hell after death, it was just the words of the Buddhist family. In contrast, I prefer to believe in the medical skills of doctors." Merton retorted, but the effect was very little, This kind of thing, the ministers naturally believe that only their existence can be trusted, not their nothingness.


    "And it is in order to avoid the tragedy of destroying the Buddha and violating the gods. Boy, I suggest saving the Buddha instead of destroying the Buddha, in case future emperors will also encounter the choice of two forbidden Buddhas." Merton said positively.


    Li Shimin''s face eased. Killing the Buddha is naturally too cruel. If this outcome can be avoided, saving the Buddha seems to be a good choice.


    "Then you say how to save the Buddha." Li Shimin asked positively.


    The other courtiers couldn''t help but move and sigh. They suddenly realized that the Mohist was really eloquent. I''m afraid Li Shimin had begun to tend to save the Buddha.


    Merton suddenly twisted his face and said, "Wei Chen is just a child of the Mohist family. If he can tell the Buddhist family how to save himself, the Buddhist family should deal with it by itself!"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing angrily. They didn''t expect that the Mohist school would hide clumsily at this point.


    "Today you are sharing your worries for the country. No matter right or wrong, you can speak freely and not be convicted with words." Li Shimin looked at Merton with a threatening look.


    "Your Majesty''s words are very true. If I don''t convict with words, all officials can advise." Xiao Ying echoed. He wanted to hear what wrong reasoning and heresy the Mohist school had.


    Merton was young and energetic. Seeing this, he couldn''t help raising his head and said, "the boy thinks that if the Buddhist family wants to save itself, the first thing is that they can''t protect the criminals. Some eminent monks think they are compassionate, but they don''t know to let the ferocious people go unpunished. This is disturbing the law and discipline."


    Xiao Yu sneered and asked, "if this person inadvertently breaks the law and sincerely repents, can''t the Buddhists change it?"


    Merton shook his head firmly and said, "of course not. The national law is ruthless. Anyone who violates the law needs to be punished. Only your majesty has the power to pardon the criminal. How can the Buddhist take over the responsibility? And how can the Buddhist explain whether the criminal sincerely repents or pretends to repent to escape the punishment? What''s more, some Buddhist temples absorb believers for their own reputation without arguing about loyalty and treachery."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, nodded again and again. The Buddhist move was indeed suspected of disturbing the law and discipline.


    Xiao Yu wanted to argue for Buddhism, but there was an example of Tongji monk. What Merton said was indeed true. At present, he couldn''t help but put his hands together and said, "in this way, there is another method of enlightenment in the world. I''m afraid it''s not the blessing of the world!"


    Merton retorted: The boy also heard that there was a butcher selling meat in the market. Chang''an, the Buddhist monk Shandao master, preached to change evil into good, and the people in the market abstained from meat and vegetarianism. The butcher saw that the meat on the stall was getting harder and harder to sell day by day. He was puzzled. After asking people, he knew that the people in the city were influenced by a monk named Shandao People persuaded them to become vegetarian, so they rushed to the temple with a butcher''s knife to kill master Shandao.


    Master Shandao had a profound Dharma and turned the butcher on the spot. The butcher repented, put down the butcher''s knife and immediately vowed to give up his life. So he climbed up a tree next to the temple, sang the Buddha with his palms together and fell to the ground. At that time, everyone around saw Amitabha coming to pick him up, and the butcher''s divine consciousness went west with the Buddha from the top door. I don''t know if that''s what the boy said. "


    Xiao Yu said proudly, "yes, this is the Buddhist method of moderation."


    Putting down the butcher''s knife and becoming a Buddha took place in Chang''an city. Naturally, everyone has heard of it. This is also the reason for the prosperity of Buddhism in Chang''an city.


    Merton sneered: "whether this story is true or not, we won''t say it for the moment. As an allusion, although the butcher has a malicious heart, he hasn''t hurt the master of good guidance. Therefore, what the butcher put down is the butcher''s knife in his heart, not the butcher''s knife stained with blood. Is this the reason why Buddhism accepts Duhua''s hand-held butcher''s knife stained with blood?"


    Xiao Yu could not help but conclude that Merton attacked the shield of the son with the spear of the son and denied the degree of Buddhism with Buddhist allusions, which convinced everyone.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "yes, the emperor breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. People who break the law need to be punished by the law. The Buddhist family can measure the malicious people, but it can not cover up the criminals who break the law."


    Li Shimin''s decision has helped the Legalists regain part of their legal power from Buddhism. People in the Ministry of punishment are not happy.

 Chapter 795

    "Second, since ancient times, money has been kept secret. However, Buddhists prefer to use copper smelting to forge Buddha. It costs a lot of money, and they don''t hesitate to spend a lot of money to gild the Buddha. The boy thinks that I''m afraid it''s also a big reason for the loss of money after killing Buddha twice." Merton Lang said.


    Yan shigu nodded and agreed. According to historical records, almost all Buddha statues were destroyed, the golden body was scraped off, the bronze statues were melted, and cast into strings of copper money to enrich the national treasury.


    However, Xiao Yu was furious and said, "plating the Buddha with gold is to accumulate blessings for believers, so that there will be wealth and reward. Moreover, the Buddha is extremely noble. Only the gold can show the solemnity of the Buddha."


    Merton sneered: "Buddha is an immortal thing, especially those yellow and white things in the world. As a kid, gilding Buddha statues is just a means of Buddhism, which can increase the atmosphere of the Buddha Hall and make the viewers feel respectful and clean. Moreover, whether the government or the public think the word gilding is derogatory or commendatory, some children of aristocratic families take over the family business, find some leisure jobs and get some results The false name is gilding. Even if I go to join the army, I''m afraid there are not many people who secretly satirize me for gilding. I''ll just walk around and get some military merit. "


    In a few words, Merton stripped the Buddha''s Gilded intention to the sky, leaving Xiao Yu speechless for a long time.


    "Gold plating is flashy and easy to be coveted. How much can those gold-plated Buddha statues be preserved in troubled times? When the gold-plated body is scraped off, I''m afraid it''s a great disrespect to the Buddha." Merton said proudly.


    "It''s impossible. Buddhists can''t give up gilding Buddha." Xiao Yu said flatly. Gilding Buddha is a sharp weapon for the development and growth of Buddhists. How can they give up easily.


    Merton frowned and said, "in that case, it is not impossible to solve it. When developing sunglasses, the Mohists developed a new gold plating method, but the effect is excellent. Not only the amount of gold is very small, but also the surface is smooth. Its effect is ten times better than the gold plating in the market. They are willing to contribute to help the Buddhists."


    "The gilding method?" all the officials were surprised. The Mohist craft has been recognized all over the world. Naturally, people will not doubt Merton''s words. At this moment, people believe that Merton is sincerely helping Buddhism.


    This time, even Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Merton more. I have to say that Merton still has an attitude to solve the problem.


    "Third, I think if Buddhists really want to save themselves, they must control the number of Buddhist temples, monks and nuns, as well as the tax-free land under their names," Merton said solemnly.


    "Control the number of Buddhist temples and monks and nuns! This is even more impossible." Xiao Xuan shook his head flatly. If the Buddhist family really controls the number of Buddhist temples and monks and nuns, wouldn''t it ruin its future? If all schools of thought are forging ahead, if the Buddhist family is complacent, I''m afraid it will soon fall behind.


    "The minister Qi plays the Mohist school with bad intentions and maliciously suppresses the Buddhist school." Yu Zhining followed up.


    "Mo Jiazi, where are you saving the Buddha? It''s worse than killing the Buddha!" many ministers coaxed one after another.


    Although the destruction of Buddhism by two martial arts caused great losses to Buddhism, Buddhism soon recovered its vitality. If we save the Buddha according to the method of Mohist Zi, I''m afraid the Buddhism will never have a chance to grow and develop again.


    For a moment, the officials were angry and attacked Merton in unison.


    Merton sneered: "you think these 80000 monks and nuns are proficient in Buddhism. How many monks and nuns can''t copy Buddhist scriptures and don''t understand Sanskrit. If you can''t do both, what is the most loyal Buddhist believer? If everyone in the Buddhism can do these two points, I will never mention saving the Buddha.


    Xiao Xuan shook his head and said, "Buddhism stresses the equality of all living beings. Everyone can become a follower of the Buddha. Copying Buddhist scriptures and Sanskrit is just a foreign thing. As long as you are sincere, the Buddha will always stay in your heart."


    Mo Fu retorted: "The boy thinks that mastering Buddhist scriptures and reading Sanskrit is the most basic foundation for monks and nuns. If they can''t reach it and turn to the Buddha, they can learn by themselves behind closed doors in the secular world. After learning it, it''s not too late to become a monk. Instead, reciting Buddhist names and shaving their hair, they have six clean roots. It''s the uncontrolled expansion of the Buddhist family that is the reason for the two disasters of the Buddhist family. Which of the hundreds of schools want to develop Legalists should be proficient in law, Confucians should be full of poetry and books, and Mohists should be proficient in craftsmanship... "


    No one in the whole court denies this. Compared with the fine selection and training of disciples or thousands of choices, the development of Buddhism is indeed too extensive and unrestrained.


    "Although I don''t object to Buddhism not engaging in production, at least I can''t become a social burden and occupy too much social wealth," Merton said.


    "The imperial court is cumbersome, and mohou is too arrogant. Do you think Mohism has made a contribution to society!" Xiao Yu was born in the Southern Dynasty, and Buddhism had a deep influence on him. He was furious when he heard the speech.


    In his opinion, the Mohist School dared to give such reckless advice just because he paid more taxes.


    Merton shook his head and said, "in the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty, more than 80000 monks and nuns really have nothing to do with the importance. What about 800000 monks and nuns and 8 million? At that time, how much food will the Tang Dynasty consume each year to support and how much money will be needed to build temples. If these money is used for national affairs, I think it will be enough to benefit the world."


    Many courtiers nodded subconsciously. Now there are still many people who don''t have enough to eat. If too many monks and nuns suddenly don''t work and can''t collect taxes, I''m afraid the whole court will be stretched.


    For a moment, all the officials in the whole court argued fiercely, including those who supported Merton and those who accused Mohist Zi of ill intentioned suppression of Buddhism.


    Fu Yi on one side could not help sighing in his heart. He played to kill the Buddha many times, and there were few responders. In his opinion, the curve of the mojiazi to save the Buddha was just a change of name. There were so many courtiers supporting him.


    However, he misunderstood Merton. Merton sincerely saved the Buddha. After all, Buddhists have been circulating in later generations, and naturally it is impossible to become extinct. However, Buddhists at this time have many disadvantages. His ideas are the rules established by later Buddhists, and Buddhists in later generations are not very prosperous, But now Buddhists are not willing to give up the readily available benefits and choose a more difficult path.


    Li Shimin saw the court arguing constantly and couldn''t help falling into a tangle. Although he was inclined to Merton''s statement, he also knew how difficult it was to want the Buddhist family to accept this road, not to mention that the Buddhist family is far from bringing disaster to the world.


    Just as the debate over Buddhism in the whole court turned white hot, a bodyguard hurried to report: "I inform your majesty that master Huiyuan, abbot of Shaolin, went to Chang''an alone and asked your majesty for a meeting."


    "Master Huiyuan!"


    Suddenly the whole dynasty was silent, and everyone knew the purpose of master Huiyuan''s coming this time.


    Fu Yi''s face darkened when he heard the speech. Thinking of Shaolin''s kindness to Li Shimin, he couldn''t help lamenting. This time, the general trend of the Mo family''s hard work might fall short again.


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed, took the opportunity to laugh loudly and said, "I have friends from afar. It''s not surprising that master Huiyuan and I have been apart for more than ten years. It''s just a chat and retreat!"


    At that moment, Li Shimin waved his big hand, ignored the fiercely debated officials and walked away.

 Chapter 796

    Although the most prosperous places of Buddhism are in Chang''an and Luoyang, Shaolin plays an important role. During the Northern Wei Dynasty, Bodhidharma, the 28th generation disciple of Sakyamuni, came to Shaolin and gathered a wide range of believers.


    When Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Buddha, the Shaolin Temple was seriously damaged. However, it was rebuilt later. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty gave the Shaolin Temple 100 hectares of land, and the Shaolin Temple became a famous temple.


    In the early Tang Dynasty, the thirteen monks of Shaolin Temple were rewarded by Emperor Taizong for their meritorious service to the Tang Dynasty. They gave Tian Qianqing and called Shaolin monks monk soldiers. From then on, Shaolin Temple became famous all over the world and was known as the first famous temple in the world.


    "Master Huiyuan, this is Chang''an city. There are hundreds of Buddhist temples and about 8000 monks in the city!" the debater on one side respectfully explained to the kind-hearted old monk around him.


    Master Huiyuan bowed his head and said, "Amitabha, after the two martial arts destroyed the Buddha, my Buddhist family suffered heavy losses. The Buddhist family has such a prosperous situation in Chang''an City, and all of you in Chang''an City have made great contributions!"


    The defense took the opportunity and said, "unfortunately, hundreds of other schools have seen the momentum of our Buddhist recovery and are subject to changes and obstacles. Especially the Mohist school, which has discredited the Buddhist school many times in the ink magazine. It is really punishable. The Mohist school can never escape the crisis of the Buddhist school."


    Master Huiyuan didn''t answer. Instead, he calmly looked at the defense machine. For a moment, the defense machine had a feeling of being seen through. He couldn''t help lowering his head with a guilty heart.


    "Buddha crossing is destined for people, not sinners, and the origin of Shaolin Temple is built by the eminent monk Tianzhu. The poor monk''s mentor Bodhidharma is also from the western regions. Do you really think the poor monk has never heard of the secret art of Yoga?" master Huiyuan said calmly.


    The defense machine couldn''t help blushing and was speechless.


    "Debate, your Buddha nature is good, but your mind is lack of training. Don''t be jealous and angry, and let the Buddha''s heart be covered with dust." master Huiyuan pointed out.


    However, the defense machine is young and proud. When he heard the Enlightenment of master Huiyuan, he couldn''t help but say in his heart: "Shaolin has saved the Tang emperor, respected his status and rewarded many believers, and believers are all over Luoyang. Naturally, he doesn''t care about these secular things. However, there are 300 temples around Chang''an City, how fierce the competition among believers is, and how can Shaolin Temple live a moist life."


    Master Huiyuan looked at the green and red face of the debater and shook his head regretfully.


    At this moment, all the horses were out, and the guard of honor continued for several times. Pound came to the east gate first. When he saw the waiting master Huiyuan, he couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and said, "master Huiyuan has come all the way. It''s hard all the way. Your Majesty specially ordered slaves to meet him."


    After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he visited Shaolin. Pound followed him personally. Naturally, he met master Huiyuan.


    "It''s benefactor Pang. I''ve been nagging a lot." master Huiyuan came here this time to express his feelings to Li Shimin. Naturally, he would not refuse this kindness and immediately follow pound.


    When the grand guard of honor rushed to the palace, the whole East city became a sensation.


    "This monk is actually the abbot of Shaolin Huiyuan. He is a generation of eminent monks! The eminent monks must come here for the sake of the proposal to destroy the Buddha in the hall."


    "Shaolin is a famous Buddhist temple. It is the ancestral court of Buddhist Zen. It has saved your majesty. In this way, the Buddhist family must be safe and secure!"


    "Not necessarily. Now most of the scholars are against Buddhism, and Buddhism''s double fists are difficult to defeat four hands!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a while, the people talked, and many people often felt in the hearts of Dongcheng gate. In a short time, Dongcheng gate witnessed the appearance of hundreds of schools one after another.


    The gossip about the dispute among hundreds of families makes everyone happy.


    When the news spread to many temples, many monks immediately breathed a sigh of relief. With the name of Shaolin Huiyuan master and Shaolin''s kindness to Li Shimin, the Buddhist family may be able to turn the crisis into safety. Otherwise, even if the Buddhist family has a deep foundation, it will not be able to withstand such twists and turns in just 200 years.


    They got the news. In the court hall, Fu Yi can firmly advocate the destruction of the Buddha, which is not a worry. However, the idea of saving the Buddha put forward by mojiazi is extremely sinister. Once it is adopted by the court, the Buddha may always be controlled by others and put a tight hoop curse on his head. Now all his hopes rest on master Huiyuan.


    "This is a prayer bead left by our teacher Dharma. It is very spiritual. Today I present it to the supreme emperor in the hope that he can recover as soon as possible." master Huiyuan stood in front of Li Yuan who had already suffered a stroke and recited the Buddha''s name with a solemn face.


    Since his stroke, Li Yuan''s condition has become more and more serious except for his appearance in the military parade. Now he can''t speak and move. The full screen maid eunuch takes care of him.


    "Buddha''s prayer beads!" the people were moved when they heard the speech. Even if the name of Buddha is a person who does not believe in Buddhism, it is also a well-known name. Li Shimin naturally knows how valuable a Buddha''s prayer bead is. It can be said that it is the treasure of Shaolin temple. Now master Huiyuan took it out without hesitation.


    "Thank you for your generosity," Li Shimin said gratefully.


    Paralyzed in bed, although Li Yuan could not speak and could not move, he held the prayer beads tightly in his hands. Although he did not believe in Buddhism, and when he was in power, he also issued an imperial edict to restrict Buddhism. At this moment, his life has come to an end. His heart is full of fear of death. Naturally, he will use the prayer beads of dharma as a life-saving straw.


    "Amitabha, the emperor''s blessings are all in the sky. I will pray for the emperor day and night in front of the Buddha." master Huiyuan read the Buddha''s name.


    Li Shimin on one side thanked him repeatedly: "master Huiyuan has profound Buddhism. My father and Emperor must be lucky. People have their own appearance."


    It is well known that master Huiyuan came to Beijing to destroy the Buddha. Unexpectedly, master Huiyuan didn''t mention the killing of the Buddha. After visiting Li Yuan, master Huiyuan came to the legislative hall and presented another treasure of Shaolin Temple.


    "I learned that the empress has always been angry and ill, so I specially brought Shaolin''s most precious pill. Although this pill can''t cure the empress''s condition, it can cultivate solid, which is very good for the empress''s condition." master Huiyuan respectfully handed over an exquisite treasure box, opened it slightly, and suddenly a smell of medicine filled the whole Lizheng hall.


    "Da Huan Dan?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but say, "I personally experienced the effect of Da Huan Dan. When I was chased by Wang Shichong and injured, I took Da Huan Dan and soon recovered."


    The eldest grandson empress couldn''t help but look happy and said, "thank you, master Huiyuan."


    She has always been weak and ill. If Da huandan can make her strong, it can naturally reduce the chance of getting sick.


    Master Huiyuan prayed for Li Yuan and offered medicine for the empress changsun. Naturally, all the princes and princesses took the opportunity to be filial. Princess Changle and Merton naturally followed in the palace. Merton, who had been observing master Huiyuan, couldn''t help sighing. Master Huiyuan didn''t mention the matter of killing the Buddha, but used human feelings to the extreme. If there were no accidents, the discussion on killing the Buddha this time would surely be over.

 Chapter 797

    "Master Huiyuan came all the way to the East and was tired of travelling. Please rest in Wangji temple now. In the evening, I will order the imperial dining room to make some vegetarian seats to receive the wind and wash the dust for the master!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    Wangji temple is a royal temple. Usually there are special people to take care of it, which is just used to receive master Huiyuan.


    "Your Majesty has spent a lot of money, so you don''t have to accept the wind and wash the dust." master Huiyuan resolutely refused Li Shimin''s reception and walked away.


    "Master Huiyuan is worthy of a generation of eminent monks. His character and Dharma are admirable!" sighed the eldest Sun Queen.


    Princess Changle nodded subconsciously, but suddenly thought that her husband was very unhappy with the Buddhist family, and couldn''t help looking at Merton.


    Even Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He was not only the empress changsun, but also had to admit that master Huiyuan was indeed very charismatic and made people close to him involuntarily. Among the people he knew, I''m afraid only the Qi field of Taoist yuan Shoucheng and medical Sun Simiao can be compared with it.


    Other princes and princesses couldn''t help looking at Merton in doubt. In their view, the Buddhism is compassionate and compassionate. How could the Mozi be so determined to oppose the Buddha?


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but put everyone''s expression in the bottom of his eyes. After a moment of meditation, he said, "let''s go! Merton stays."


    They all gave Merton a deep look and silently turned away. Only princess Changle''s eyes showed concern. Merton shook his head and said nothing. He got up and followed Li Shimin to leave.


    The heavy door of the palace was closed heavily, leaving only Merton and Li Shimin in the whole palace, and the atmosphere suddenly solidified.


    Li Shimin took out a Buddhist sutra, recalled it, and said with emotion: "I was in a desperate situation. At a critical moment, the thirteen monks and soldiers of Shaolin came out of thin air without a piece of armor. Only with their long staff in hand, they filled hundreds of elite soldiers against Wang Shi without fear. The world knows that the thirteen monks of Shaolin saved me, but they don''t know. In order to save me, only three of the thirteen monks survived."


    Morton said with awe: "Your Majesty is lucky, Shaolin Gaoyi!"


    "I admit that what you said is very reasonable. Buddhism is really going back to the old way, but it will be 200 years later. Buddhism is kind to me. Even if it is to destroy Buddhism or restrict Buddhism, you can''t start with me. Can you understand what I mean?" Li Shimin said firmly.


    Merton sighed in his heart and couldn''t help saying, "it''s true!"


    "Wei Chen understands your Majesty''s difficulties." Merton nodded.


    Li Shimin nodded and looked at Merton with satisfaction.


    "Master Huiyuan presented two priceless treasures to the palace today, and it happened that Weichen also got two priceless treasures recently. Please taste them," Morton said solemnly.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin''s eyes looked different. It''s not common for Merton to call it priceless! I can''t help looking forward to it.


    Merton came forward, took out a thick book of classics and a roll of sheepskin from his cuff and handed it to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin took over and saw that the two classics were written with dense foreign words. He couldn''t help but move in his heart. He looked at Merton in surprise and said, "I remember that you publicly offered a large reward in the western region conference to seek western region classics. Are these two the two?"


    Merton nodded heavily, "yes, but these two classics are not foreign secrets, but scriptures believed by foreign religions. This one is the Christian Scripture of the far western country, called the Bible, and the other is the Koran, the Holy Scripture of the great food religion * * * religion near Persia. These two scriptures are both broad and profound enough to match the Buddhist scriptures If you want to compare with me, from the perspective of Wei Chen, there are already three major religions standing side by side in the world, namely, Christianity in the Far West, the * * * religion of Dashi, and Tianzhu Buddhism. "


    "A religious scripture comparable to Buddhism!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved. No wonder Merton paid so much attention to it.


    "How can you be sure that these three religions will be the three major religions in the world? Can''t my Chinese Taoism compare with these foreign religions?" Li Shimin wondered.


    Merton nodded: "First, these religions are expanding rapidly and constantly developing believers and territories. Taoism pays attention to self-cultivation and avoids deep mountains. There are few natural believers. Second, these religions originated in a civilized place no less than China. Each Scripture is extremely profound, full of philosophy and convincing. Behind the Scripture, some micro ministers spent a lot of manpower to complete the translation, Your majesty will know at a glance. "


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he couldn''t help reading it curiously,


    "At first God created heaven and earth,......."


    "Mu Sheng said: learning is the bounden duty of every man and woman, and knowledge is the life of * * *."


    There are not many translations translated by Merton. Most of them are classics. Li Shimin quickly finished reading them and couldn''t help praising them again and again.


    "What do your majesty think of these two scriptures?" Merton asked.


    Li Shimin nodded repeatedly and said, "it''s really great wisdom."


    Eve''s temptation, the last dinner, Allah''s messengers, and stories full of wisdom convinced Li Shimin. He had to admit that it was not inferior to the Buddhist scriptures.


    However, Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously. Is it because Merton got these two scriptures that he is so prejudiced against Buddhism, but it is difficult that Merton can believe in two religions at the same time.


    Merton ignored Li Shimin''s eyes, but took a deep breath: "Your Majesty has ever heard of the struggle between divine power and kingship."


    "The struggle between divine power and kingship!" Li Shimin''s eyes coagulated and his breath stagnated involuntarily. Now he has realized that Merton is not just giving him two holy scriptures.


    Merton said solemnly, "kingship is a secular right. Your majesty is the person in charge, while divine power is in the hand of religion. Believers who call themselves gods save the world. The same is true for the son of heaven in their eyes. In the eyes of the Mohist school, there is a deeper meaning of the two Wu killing Buddha, that is, the struggle between kingship and divine power, and the taxes on population and land."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. I''m afraid Merton was right in one word.


    Merton took a deep breath: "the world accuses the cruelty of Erwu''s killing Buddha, while the Mohists believe that the world should be glad that Erwu''s killing Buddha has won, because we can''t afford the consequences of failure."


    "Consequences of failure?" Li Shimin shrunk his eyes.


    "Your Majesty can imagine that once the two martial arts failed to destroy the Buddha, what is the situation in China now? All believers in the country. Your majesty believes that these believers listen to the court or the temple." Merton''s voice was heavy.


    "The whole country is full of believers. How is this possible?" Li Shimin was unconvinced and felt that Merton was just opening his mouth and daydreaming.


    Merton sneered, "how impossible?"


    Li Shimin was about to refute, when he suddenly thought of a possibility. He suddenly avoided the Scriptures in his hands like snakes and scorpions, and looked at the two classics he praised just now.


    Merton nodded heavily and said, "yes, they all failed!"

 Chapter 798

    "The far west country, which once brought up generations of sages such as Socrates and Plato, was divided into two, and the far west country soon perished and split into small countries. There were constant wars among countries. Christianity took advantage of this opportunity to develop and grow. Almost all the people of the Far West Country are Christians, even the king."


    "Christianity has its own pope, established a special Papal State, and established countless churches among countries, requiring the people to give everything to God before they can go to heaven after death. Whenever a king ascends the throne, he must be baptized by the Pope. Once a powerful king disobeys the Pope and the Pope gives an order, other countries will assemble coalition forces until they defeat him."


    Every time Merton said a word, Li Shimin''s face was gloomy. If the divine power was above the imperial power, he would never accept it.


    "The big food is a more special form. The integration of politics and religion is called the Caliph by religious leaders. It is both a religious leader and a political leader. All the soldiers under his name believe in * * * religion and are extremely loyal, fanatical and fearless of death. Now they are constantly invading Persia. I can guarantee that Persia will not resist the attack of these crazy soldiers, and Persia will perish within 20 years , and the pyramid country is also adjacent to Dashi. I''m afraid Dashi will not escape. Dashi will become the most powerful enemy of Datang in the western regions, and it is extremely dangerous. "


    "Integrating politics and religion, taking believers as soldiers!" Li Shimin took a deep breath. He was no stranger to this model. Many uprisings in Chinese dynasties were in the name of religion, among which Zhang Jiao''s yellow scarf army uprising was one of them, and the only difference was Zhang Jiao''s defeat.


    Merton took a deep breath again: "the most popular place of Buddhism, Tianzhu, is more worthy of reference and reflection."


    Li Shimin immediately sat upright. If it was the East pole and west country and Dashi, it was still a little far from the Tang Dynasty, and Tianzhu, which also believed in Buddhism and was adjacent to it, he had to pay attention to it.


    "As early as when Qin Shihuang unified China, the era of great unification also appeared in Tianzhu. The land and population of the Peacock Dynasty are not inferior to that of the Qin Dynasty. However, 800 years have passed since the demise of the Peacock Dynasty. Tianzhu is still a small country with continuous wars. Once there is a strong external invasion, Tianzhu will be scattered and slaughtered."


    "There are many small countries!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but be shocked. After the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, China has experienced the change of dynasties from generation to generation. Even if his world was divided, no matter which emperor dreamed of unifying the world, Tianzhu has not been unified for 800 years, which is incredible to him.


    Didn''t there be an ambitious emperor in Tianzhu? Obviously, it is impossible. I am afraid that Buddhism''s prohibition of killing, compassion and opposition to war can not be underestimated.


    "That is to say, at present, where civilization originated, three-quarters of the divine power has been shrouded, and only China has survived," Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Li Shimin''s face is especially dignified at the moment. The world has always believed that China is the center of the world, and other places are barbarian places. However, since the rise of Mohism, unique foreign studies from the Far West have constantly changed the lives of the people of the Tang Dynasty. People realized that in addition to the Chinese civilization, In this world, there are three ancient countries that are not inferior to Chinese civilization, and there are more bright rising stars, Roman and Greek civilization.


    However, the news from Merton''s mouth is more and more bad news. All these civilized countries have been shrouded in theocracy.


    Until now, Li Shimin was really aware of the cruelty of the dispute between divine power and kingship. The reason why Erwu exterminated Buddha was successful was that monks and nuns accounted for only one tenth of the population, while secular people accounted for the majority, coupled with the influence of great unification and the culture of all schools of thought.


    However, if there were no two martial arts to kill the Buddha, the Buddhism developed smoothly from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid its scale would be several times that of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The consequences made Li Shimin shudder.


    Li Shimin has no doubt about Merton''s words. Merton can be said to be the person who knows the western regions best. In addition to the Mozi secret works written by the Mohist sages who have traveled all over the western countries, in the past two years, a steady stream of Hu merchants have provided countless information to the Mohists. It is not difficult to distinguish the true from the false.


    Li Shimin suddenly flashed his eyes and said, "I heard that you highly admire foreign Mohism. I want to know how Mohism in the East pole and west country is now?"


    A trace of sadness flashed on Merton''s face and said, "the Mohists advocate truth and solve unsolved mysteries, which is absolutely not allowed in the West pole and west country. If we are in the East pole and west country, even if your majesty comes forward to protect Wei Chen, Wei Chen will not escape the end of being burned."


    "Fire!" Li Shimin couldn''t believe it and grew up.


    Merton nodded: "when the Mohist sages visited the western regions, they once met a Mohist sage named Copernicus. He thought that the earth we are in is not the center of the universe, and the sun is the center of the universe. Only this view was buried in his heart. He was not willing to lose his theory until he died, so he announced it."


    Li Shimin said in amazement, "even the theory dare not be published."


    "I don''t convict the Tang Dynasty with words, but Copernicus didn''t even dare to publish his theory. What do you think of the situation of Mohism?" Merton said.


    "Will you be put on fire just because you say something wrong?" Li Shimin smacked his tongue.


    Merton nodded: "later, his disciple Bruno believed in the sun center and lobbied countries to publicize their ideas. Finally, he was tied to the stake by the Holy See and burned alive."


    "Really burn!" Li Shimin said in shock.


    Until this time, Li Shimin didn''t know why even he couldn''t keep Merton. Merton cracked the dog eclipse, boarded a hot-air balloon, took off into the clouds, and peeped at the moon with a telescope. I''m afraid none of them could escape death.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but lament: "is it worth it? For a theory that doesn''t know whether it''s true or false."


    "Worth it, of course! The most precious thing in this world is truth. Mohism exists to solve unsolved mysteries and find the truth in this world." Merton firmly said.


    Li Shimin remembered that there was another Mohist child in front of him. He couldn''t help looking at Merton with complex eyes.


    "In fact, it''s not just Mohism. From the latest news, the last Pope has burned the largest library in Rome, and the school must teach theology, which is like burning books and pitching Confucianism."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Merton sympathetically. In the Qin Dynasty, books were burned and Confucianism was burned, but in foreign countries, books were burned and ink was burned. No, books were burned and ink was burned!


    "In addition, a woman who eats a lot must wear a black veil every day, only her eyes can be exposed, and her face can only be seen by her husband."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be shocked. He didn''t have anything when he thought of the more and more bold clothes in his harem. Even Zheng Chonghua, the most beautiful in his harem, never wanted his veil to cover his face.


    "In Tianzhu, people are divided into four kinds, and all kinds of sex cannot be intermarried. Mohist children like Weichen are divided into the fourth kind. The most humble craftsman can''t marry a second-class princess." Merton was wronged.


    Li Shimin glared at Merton when he heard the speech. Suddenly, he had the idea of agreeing with the caste system. In this way, Merton didn''t dare to think about his baby princess.


    "Wait, the princess is the second level. Who is the first level?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "Monks, of course," Merton replied.


    Suddenly, Li Shimin no longer had the idea of implementing the caste system. How could he tolerate that he still had a greater power over his head.


    "This is the information of all civilized countries in the world held by the Mohists. Please choose," Merton said, and then kept silent.


    Suddenly, the whole palace fell into a dead silence. After a long time, Li Shimin sighed and said, "now the Buddhism is not suffering from the Tang Dynasty. It is absolutely impossible to destroy the Buddha. Let''s take your strategy to save the Buddha!


    "Your Majesty is wise! If you have the best of both worlds, both Buddhism and Datang will benefit." Merton heavily relaxed his airway, so that he can eliminate the suffering of Buddhism without fierce means.


    "Tomorrow you will go to Wangji temple on my behalf and discuss Buddhist affairs on behalf of the imperial court." Li Shimin suddenly changed his words.


    "Me!"


    Merton couldn''t help but open his eyes and pointed to himself incredulously.


    "Why, you''re not talking about the strategy to save the Buddha in the court. Now it''s an opportunity. Besides, you once helped the Taoism solve its internal problems. Why not help the Buddhism again?" Li Shimin pressed Merton.


    "Minister Wei, take orders!"


    Merton opened his mouth and nodded helplessly. He found that Li Shimin was not willing to pit him. Although his strategy to save the Buddha was feasible, it definitely violated many Buddhist interests. This time, he completely offended the Buddhism.

 Chapter 799

    Wangji temple!


    Wangji temple is where Master Huiyuan settled. It has been cleaned clean and spotless for a long time. Shaolin is the ancestral court of Zen, coupled with the reputation of master Huiyuan


    The news of his coming to Chang''an city had already spread among Chang''an Buddhist temples, and many monks came to pay a visit. For a moment, the lonely eminent monks of Wangji Temple gathered in the past,


    "It''s a blessing for the Buddhist family that master Huiyuan can come forward in person!" Abbot Huichang relaxed heavily,


    Master farIn was also lucky and said, "it is said that Fu Yi and Mohist are as skillful as tongue springs. They have almost moved your majesty. If they had not heard the news of the arrival of the master, I''m afraid the Buddha would have been robbed."


    There are many officials who tend to be Buddhist in the court hall. The Mohist''s strategy to save the Buddha naturally spread to the ears of many Buddhists. If master Huiyuan didn''t arrive in time, I''m afraid it would be too late if Li Shimin ordered to limit the Buddha on the spot.


    "Yes, the Mo family''s strategy to save the Buddha is extremely insidious. If it is really adopted by your majesty, I''m afraid my Buddhist family will never have a chance to turn over." the abbot of Tongren said angrily.


    "The way to save the Buddha!" master Huiyuan said in amazement. He only heard the argument that mojiazi had repeatedly attacked the Buddha. How could it turn into mojiazi''s way to save the Buddha in the twinkling of an eye.


    Tongren Abbot sneered: "the Mohist made wild remarks and boasted that the Buddhists would experience the third and fourth destruction of the Buddha. They even wanted to let the Buddhists destroy their future and control the number of Buddhist temples and monks and nuns. They really thought they were living bodhisattvas who saved suffering."


    "The third and fourth time to kill Buddha!" master Huiyuan felt a pain in his heart. He had personally experienced the killing of Buddha by Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Naturally, he knew that the days when Buddhism was dark. When he heard that Buddhism was about to kill Buddha for the third and fourth time, he couldn''t help asking.


    "It''s just the nonsense of the MOH family. Master Huiyuan doesn''t have to take it seriously!" the abbot waved his hand.


    "Whether it''s true or false, it doesn''t hurt to listen. The fake old man naturally refutes in front of your majesty. If it''s true, maybe Buddhism can survive this disaster." master Huiyuan firmly said that the name of mojiazi has both praise and criticism in the Tang Dynasty, but we have to admit that mojiazi has a unique vision and leads the rise of doctors to relieve the internal problems of Taoism, How can he take it lightly.


    Abbot Tongren was stunned. Finally, he reluctantly restored the disadvantages of Buddhism speculated by Mozi in the chaotang hall and the three strategies to save the Buddha.


    "It''s a joke. It''s the sincerity of the Buddhist dharma that Buddhists can help all living beings and can help criminals. It''s too lenient for the Mohist son."


    "That is, what gilding method should be used to replace the gilding method to gilt the Buddha to show his piety to the Buddha. Isn''t a thin layer of gilding disrespectful to the Buddha?"


    "Also let all monks understand Sanskrit and write Buddhist scriptures. How many literate people in the world, and how many talents can be left to Buddhists?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When the monks heard the speech, you and I belittled the Mohist''s strategy of saving the Buddha.


    All the monks talked, but master Huiyuan was silent and silent. A few words of Mohist school always lingered in his ears,


    "Today''s Buddhists just go back to the old way. In less than 200 years, when the Buddhist temple will reproduce the disadvantages before the second Wu exterminated the Buddha, the third extermination of the Buddha is just around the corner."


    "It is the uncontrolled expansion of Buddhism that is the reason for the two disasters of Buddhism."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The monks talked one after another, but soon found that master Huiyuan was silent, fell into an epiphany, and stopped in embarrassment.


    After a long time, master Huiyuan raised his head, looked at the oldest Abbot Huichang and asked, "Abbot Huichang is the oldest and has experienced the disaster of killing Buddha 60 years ago. I want to ask whether the Buddhism 60 years ago and today''s Buddhism went the same way."


    When Abbot Huichang heard the speech, a trace of pain appeared on his face and fell into memories. The disaster of killing Buddha 60 years ago was a pain that all Buddhists could not reach.


    After a while, abbot Huichang lowered his head and wept, folded his hands and said, "there is no difference between today''s Buddhism and the Buddhist road 60 years ago, but it is not my Buddhist fault, but Emperor Wu''s cruelty, blasphemy and sudden death. He has received due punishment."


    "Yes, today''s sage is wise and will certainly not take the road of Emperor Wu again."


    With one voice, all the monks firmly believe that no one admits that this is a Buddhist fault.


    One side of the argument took the opportunity to say, "Shaolin Temple is kind to your majesty. Now master Huiyuan comes forward in person. My Buddhist family will certainly be able to tide over this crisis."


    Master Huiyuan looked up at the sky and sighed: "I was still young. I saw the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty push down the Shaolin Buddha statue and scrape the financial copper. Many senior brothers and uncles return to the common customs. If I can save the Buddhist family, I am duty bound to smash the broken bones. However, this time I don''t know whether Tao saved the Buddhist family or harmed the Buddhist family."


    The monks did not dare to look at master Huiyuan, but master farIn was thoughtful. However, when he saw the monks pretending not to understand, he couldn''t help but bow his head and sigh. The monks were immersed in the joy of the Buddhist family through this pass. The words of the Mohist school were somewhat reasonable, but they were not willing to give up their interests.


    At this moment, a little monk from Wangji Temple ran in and handed master Huichang an envelope. Master Huichang opened it and suddenly his face changed.


    "But what happened?" asked master farIn.


    Master Huichang looked embarrassed and said, "there has been news from the court. The imperial envoy in the court has been determined. Tomorrow, we will discuss Buddhism with master Huiyuan!"


    "Imperial Envoys? But people from the Ministry of rites!" Lang Sheng, master of Huiyuan, said that there is not no organization to manage religion in the court hall, but there is a special organization to manage Buddhism and Taoism.


    "No, the new imperial envoy is... The MOH family!" master Huichang said with a frozen face.


    "Mojiazi as imperial envoy?" for a moment, the monks were in an uproar. In recent days, Buddhism has been spreading. Mojiazi is a firm anti Buddhist. However, now the imperial court has personally appointed mojiazi as imperial envoy. Isn''t it dangerous for Buddhism.


    The monks couldn''t help looking at master Huiyuan aside. It''s not that Shaolin once had great kindness to Li Shimin, and master Huiyuan has offered Shaolin priceless treasure. Adding another chip to this favor can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai. How can he suddenly turn around at this time.


    Soon, the news came from the chaotang hall that after master Huiyuan left the palace, Li Shimin specially summoned Mo Jiazi. Half an hour later, Li Shimin suddenly appointed Mo Jiazi as an imperial envoy minister, fully responsible for the affairs of Buddhism.


    "Your Majesty summoned mojiazi personally, which must be to let mojiazi give up targeting Buddhism." master farIn affirmed.


    The monks nodded, but the problem was what mojiazi had done in the half hour between mojiazi and Li Shimin, not to mention the two priceless treasures of Shaolin.


    "Mojiazi!"


    The monks could not help but meditate in their hearts, and their attention to Mohist School suddenly rose to the extreme. Tomorrow will be the last battle to determine the fate of Buddhism.

 Chapter 800

    The next day.


    The eminent monks in the Wangji Temple gather together. They are not surprised to be spoiled or disgraced. The monks with amazing concentration are now like great enemies. From time to time, they aim outside the temple. More eminent monks recite Buddhist names and carefully prepare their arguments in private. They want to spend the Mexican family''s great enemy of Buddhism on the spot.


    "Your Majesty''s intention is to let the mojiazi come to discuss the Buddhist affairs, which shows that your majesty is still thinking about the old feelings, and this may not be a turning point." master Huichang was lucky.


    The monks couldn''t help nodding, but they didn''t have the confidence. After all, master Shaolin Huiyuan didn''t make Li Shimin favor of Buddhism.


    Master Huiyuan announced the Buddha''s name and said, "Mohism, like Buddhism, is on the road of rejuvenation. I believe that Mohism must be able to understand the situation of Buddhism."


    Master farIn nodded, but he was confused. For Fu Yi, the sworn enemy of Buddhism, he could naturally fight to protect the Buddhism. However, he was very tangled by Mohist''s strategy to save the Buddha.


    On the one hand, Mozi''s strategy to save the Buddha is actually a strategy to limit the Buddha, which is not conducive to the revival of the Buddha. On the other hand, what Mozi said is somewhat reasonable. After the two martial arts destroyed the Buddha, the Buddhism has not changed, but just washed away the old road, and there may not be the arrival of the third Buddhist disaster.


    The monks are either confused, or thinking about countermeasures, or uneasy, or share a common hatred. Unknowingly, the time agreed by both sides has come.


    "Herod!"


    With the scream of a fine horse, a long motorcade stopped in front of Wangji temple. The first young man in a weak crown jumped down from the carriage and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "The Mohist school is coming!"


    Buddhist monks could not help but worry and looked at the young man in front of them with hostility.


    Merton consciously ignored the eyes of the Buddhist monks and couldn''t help but Lang said, "later, learn from Merton and meet all the eminent monks."


    The master of Huiyuan, who was led by him, came forward and said, "Mohism is the outstanding learning of all schools of thought. Mohist sage and Buddha are contemporaries with great wisdom. Today, it is a blessing for Mohist and Buddha families to get together."


    Merton replied: "the name of Buddhism, and Mohism has also been heard a lot. In those days, the Mohist predecessors had a good trip to the Buddhist holy land Tianzhu, brought back Tianzhu figures and saw the prosperity of Buddhism. Now it is a great honor for me to meet so many Buddhist predecessors."


    Their faces were warm, and there was no sign that they were about to compete.


    "Speaking of it, I would also like to thank benefactor mo. when I came to Chang''an, I had a long way to go. I took the carriage of Mohism. One day I arrived at Chang''an city. Mohist brick road and vehicle and horse technology benefited the world and saved the world from running around. I admire it." master Huiyuan thanked me.


    The reason why master Huiyuan could arrive at Chang''an city so quickly was naturally to take the carriage of Mohism, but when the defense plane went to Shaolin, it was dressed in disguise. When returning, the defense plane suggested that master Huiyuan should do the same. However, master Huiyuan did not hesitate to object. Instead, he dressed up as a monk and rushed to the Mohist station, The Mohist team did not have the slightest embarrassment and treated the guests as usual, which enabled master Huiyuan to arrive at Chang''an city so quickly. On the contrary, it seemed that it was an opportunity to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.


    Merton put his hands together and said, "the Buddhist School believes that all beings are equal. The Mohist school agrees with this and implements it. No matter who has a guide, the Mohist school will treat everyone equally."


    "All beings are equal!" master Huiyuan gave Merton a meaningful look and praised him: "master Mo is indeed a man of great wisdom, which I admire!"


    "Master, I''m flattered!" Merton said politely.


    Master Huiyuan couldn''t help laughing, waved and invited, "please, benefactor Mo!"


    Master Huiyuan solemnly welcomed Mozi into Wangji temple. His prudence has reached the peak. His unfavourable human tactics in others are completely useless in Mozi.


    When entering the Wangji temple, it was a huge high platform. The high platform had already been filled with tables and chairs. Merton was also a meal in his heart. This time he went deep into the tiger''s den!


    Master Huiyuan said in a loud voice, "the most famous of Wangji temple is the Sutra debate Dharma Association. When Buddhism flourished in the past, countless monks came to Wangji temple to argue every year. It was a great event in Chang''an at that time. Unfortunately, after Emperor Wu destroyed the Buddha, the Buddhism withered, and this grand occasion can no longer appear."


    "The Buddhists have suffered many calamities, and the Mohists have deep sympathy." Merton said sadly.


    "I heard that master Mo had publicly predicted in the Imperial Hall that there would be another disaster of killing Buddha in 200 years. My Buddhist family is waiting for you again and listen to the teachings. Please, donor Mo!" master Huiyuan stretched out his hand and raised it falsely and solemnly invited.


    "Buddhists learn the art of Mohist Debate." all the monks said in unison.


    Merton took a deep breath and slowly climbed onto the stand. Ink debate is one of Mohist theories. However, it has always been a neglected theory. Today he will make Mohist ink debate shine again.


    When Merton and the monks sat down, Merton solemnly said, "the ink debate pays attention to names, words and words. The boy has not only learned the fur of the ink debate, but can only dialectically use the method of mathematics. Therefore, the boy specially invited the most outstanding mathematicians in the world as a witness today."


    "Shen Hongcai, the Imperial College, has seen all the eminent monks!"


    "I''ve seen all the eminent monks!"


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, two arithmetic masters, old and young, appeared behind Merton.


    "It turned out to be Dr. Shen who compiled the book of mathematics and the descendants of the ancestors who created the parabola!" master Huiyuan was surprised, but he didn''t expect that the helpers Merton recruited were these two people. In the computational circle of the Tang Dynasty, they first came into contact with Tianzhu numbers, and they were indeed one of the best in computational science.


    "I''ve met master Huiyuan. Marquis Mo once said that everyone in the world will deceive you, but math can''t. today, although we are invited by Marquis Mo, we promise in the name of math that all the data will be true." Shen Hongcai solemnly said.


    Zu Mingjun nodded solemnly. The origin of mathematics was unknown. Since Mohist Zi introduced Tianzhu numbers into the Tang Dynasty, mathematics has been greatly simplified and brilliantly used in various fields. Its accuracy and prohibition have attracted the attention of all 100 schools.


    The reason why they should be invited by Merton is to bring the reputation of one line of mathematics. As long as they can help mojiazi calculate the future of Buddhism, one line of mathematics will certainly be famous.


    "I can trust the reputation of arithmetic!" master Huiyuan nodded.


    When other monks saw the pulse of arithmetic, they felt a bad feeling in their hearts, but when they saw master Huiyuan''s consent, they had no choice but to nod.


    Of course, they are also more unconvinced. He doesn''t believe that the future of Buddhism can be calculated with cold figures.


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, Zu Mingjun and Shen Hongcai sat behind Merton. In an instant, the atmosphere of the whole Sutra debate was solidified. Merton three directly fought against the Buddhist monks.

 Chapter 801

    Merton said happily and calmly, "although Mo is a descendant of the Mohist school, today he also came to discuss the affairs of the Buddhist school on behalf of the court. As we all know, the Buddhist family has been plagued many times. Your majesty is destined to be with the Buddhist family. He can''t bear the dilemma between the Buddhist family and the court. So Mo came to negotiate the affairs of the Buddhist family.


    "Thank you, your majesty. I''m grateful!" master Huiyuan said gratefully.


    The other monks could not help but turn their lips. In their view, Buddhism is the most kind and pure, compassionate, and the destruction of Buddhism by two martial arts is the ferocity and cruelty of Emperor Wu of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Coupled with the help of Confucianism and Taoism, there will be two disasters of Buddhism. Buddhism can say that it is not wrong at all.


    As soon as Merton''s eyes were swept, he immediately took all the faces of the Buddhist monks in his eyes. He couldn''t help saying in a loud voice: "Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, and it happens that the ancestors of Mohism once had a proverb. Please give me some advice."


    "I''d like to listen to the theory of Mohism!" master Huiyuan said solemnly.


    "Mo Sheng summed up countless gratitude and resentment, sighed and said: there is no hatred or love without reason in this world." Merton Lang said.


    "There is no hatred or love for no reason!" master farIn frowned. He naturally heard the voice outside the words of the Mohist school. How can the two martial arts destroy the Buddha for no reason? There must be cause and effect.


    "I''m a Buddhist who is universal, loving the world and never asking for anything in return..." master Huichang couldn''t help retorting.


    Merton sneered, "really don''t you want anything in return? Why do Buddhists collect incense money and why do they have temple property."


    "This is a voluntary offering by believers. We didn''t force it!" master Huichang retorted.


    "Why doesn''t the believer give me money for Mohist incense for no reason?" Merton pressed step by step.


    "Er!" master Huichang stopped speechlessly.


    "Believers offer incense money for Buddhism to pray for peace, Buddha''s blessing and promotion to the paradise in the west after death. That''s why I don''t have these in Mohism. Naturally, he won''t voluntarily give me Mohist money." Merton explained himself.


    "The Mohist is indeed a man of great wisdom, which concisely and comprehensively explains the essence of the way of cause and effect." master Huiyuan sighed.


    Other monks kept silent. Since master Huiyuan admitted that there was no love for no reason, he naturally admitted that there was no hatred for no reason. In this way, there must be a reason for the two martial arts to destroy the Buddha, rather than the Buddhists who always thought they were innocent victims.


    "Since you all agree with Mo''s words, I''ll carefully calculate with you the reason between Buddhism and the Imperial Hall." Merton breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that these monks would stick to their faith, which didn''t make sense at all.


    "I''m all ears." the monks snorted coldly.


    "The boy thinks that the biggest reason why Buddhism has been robbed many times is that it has not done its duty for the country. Although you are monks, you are also Chinese and people of the Tang Dynasty. You should also consider the world,......" Merton Lang said.


    Before Merton finished, the debater standing behind master Huichang couldn''t help but retort: "we Buddhists are monks. We are empty in all directions and have six clean roots. We don''t ask about common things in the world."


    Merton suddenly looked cold, stared at the debater and said, "whose land are you standing on, whose clothes are you wearing, and who grows the food you eat,......."


    With Merton''s rhetorical questions one by one, the defense machine blushed and could not speak.


    "At the military parade last year, the people of Chang''an City shouted that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Whether it is a hundred schools of thought or ordinary people, they need to bear the responsibility for the rise and fall of the world. Buddhism is no exception. Otherwise, why do you think China will give Buddhism love for no reason?" Merton solemnly said.


    "What master Mo Shi said is very true. If the world needs Buddhism, we will not hesitate to give up this flesh body!" master Huiyuan solemnly said.


    "Buddhism is universal and naturally willing to sacrifice for the country." master farIn said solemnly.


    Falin is a master of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. She knows that the purpose of all schools of thought is to stabilize the world. If Buddhism wants to integrate into the Tang Dynasty, it must be in line with the ideas of all schools of thought.


    "You can''t talk nonsense when you step down!" master Huichang scolded. The debate machine is an elite carefully cultivated by Buddhism. Although it has extraordinary wisdom, it is far from the world-famous Mohist. Now is not the time for him to face Mohist directly.


    Merton looked up at the young face of the defense machine in surprise. He didn''t expect to meet a famous celebrity in history at this time. He said, "master Huichang is still good at teaching his disciples so as not to cause disaster for Buddhism in the future."


    Master Huichang''s face changed. He looked at Merton with vigilance and said, "naturally, my Buddhist children are managed by the Buddhist family. Don''t worry about me.


    Merton smiled, but he was kind enough to remind him that if Buddhism didn''t pay attention to it, he wouldn''t worry more. Now, he continued:


    "Since the Buddhists are willing to contribute to the country, Mo has a good account with the Buddhists. When the Buddhists were robbed, there were 2 million monks and nuns in the Northern Wei Dynasty and 3 million monks and nuns in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. How about we take the minimum 2 million monks and nuns as the bottom line of the Buddhists being robbed?" Merton asked.


    "Amitabha!" master Huiyuan and master farIn recited the Buddha''s name in a sad voice,


    "Dr. Shen, how many fields and people do you need to feed two million people?" Merton asked.


    Dr. Shen, holding a calculator, crackled and said: "Ordinary people need to eat about one kilogram of grain every day, two million people need to eat two million kilogrammes every day, and 70000 kilogrammes of grain a year. The yield per mu in the Northern Wei Dynasty was about 300 kilogrammes. It''s good to be able to save 100 kilogrammes after removing seeds and farmers'' expenses. It would take seven million mu of good land to feed two million people."


    "Seven million mu of fertile land!" the monks were also shocked. Originally, they thought they were very innocent. However, after Shen Hongcai''s calculation, they found that the Buddhist family was probably not so innocent.


    Merton solemnly said, "seven million mu of fertile land is almost equivalent to a Guanzhong Plain, which is feeding the Buddhists, not to mention the clothes, scriptures and temples of the Buddhists. What human and material resources does it take? Isn''t that why?"


    A group of monks could not help but remain silent, but did not refute Merton''s words. They also knew that 2 million monks and nuns seemed to make Buddhism develop and grow, but the rulers did not want to see so many labor forces become monks and nuns who meditate without anything.


    "Since two million monks and nuns are already in danger of destroying the Buddha, Dr. Shen, you two can calculate how many years the number of two million monks and nuns can reach with the existing development scale of the Buddhist family." Merton turned his head and looked aside at Dr. Shen.


    Shen Hongcai and Zu Mingjun looked at each other and meditated in their hearts. In a moment, they blurted out: "for up to 200 years, the number of Buddhist monks and nuns can reach 2 million."


    "Two hundred years?" the monks were surprised. If they had known that two hundred years later, Buddhism would be so prosperous, they would be very excited. However, at the moment, they were all worried, because once the number of two million monks and nuns reached, it might be the time for Buddhism to invite disasters.


    Merton nodded, turned to the monks and asked, "I don''t know if Buddhism has a good plan to solve the crisis of Buddhism 200 years later. Your majesty deeply reads the grace of Buddhism and will not move Buddhism. However, who can guarantee that future emperors will not move."


    The monks were silent and shook their heads one after another. Naturally, they wanted to make Buddhism develop and grow, but they didn''t know to make Buddhism go to the abyss step by step.


    "Please help me!" said master Huiyuan.


    Merton nodded and said, "boy, since two million is the bottom line to destroy the Buddha, the number of Buddhists should be reduced by at least half to ensure safety."


    "A million monks!"


    After all, compared with the current number of Buddhists, one million is quite a lot.


    Merton looked up to the sky and sighed: "one million monks. Last year, when we were on the western expedition to Tuyuhun, there were 200000 troops. By the way, Zu Mingjun, you were also involved in the production of the catapult. Do you know how many troops we had in the Tang Dynasty in addition to the 200000 western expedition?"


    Zu Mingjun got up and said in a loud voice, "there are sixteen guards, generals and various Zhechong houses in the Tang Dynasty. During the western expedition, part of the sixteen guards went out to fight, and then took out 200000 troops from various Zhechong houses from all over the world. There are about 140000 troops stationed in other places."


    Merton suddenly realized: "so, I have about 34 soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty. In this way, the strategists are worthy of being the leader among my hundreds of families. What''s more, I didn''t expect that the money and food provided by the Buddhist family in the Tang Dynasty can support three times the soldiers and horses."


    Military strategists, like Buddhists, do not work in production and consume huge money and food. Now the food consumed by Buddhists can support three times their troops. As rulers, it is conceivable what they will think. If their hearts are unbalanced, they will find Buddhists.


    A group of monks could not help but be in an uproar. Naturally, they heard the meaning of Mohist school. They wanted to make the number of Buddhists no more than that of strategists, and suddenly dropped from one million to 340000. Although there was still much room for development compared with the current 80000 monks and nuns, it was far lower than their expectation.


    "It''s impossible. Master Mo Shi is simply deceiving people too much. There are many people who want to be Buddha in my Buddhism, and Buddhism can''t shut them out." master Huichang was furious.


    "Yes, my Buddhist family is independent of the world and has clean cultivation. However, master Mo Shi limits the number of us to the military family. Do you doubt that the Buddhist family can''t rebel?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, a group of monks became angry and opposed one after another. Even master Huiyuan and master farIn could not help frowning at the Mohist.


    Seeing this, Merton couldn''t help but look hesitant and said, "since you are all opposed to restricting monks, I also have a compromise proposal. I wonder if you can listen to me."


    "Master Mo, please speak." master Hui Yuan nodded.


    "Since there are so many people who are interested in Buddhism, we can''t obstruct it. If we don''t set rules, the court hall will establish a monk''s book for Buddhism, called Dudie. Only those who are proficient in scriptures and familiar with Sanskrit can get it. In this way, we can not only leave a way for those who are interested in Buddhism, but also select people with wisdom for Buddhism. Isn''t it the best of both worlds, but there''s a bottom line Then the number of dudiems should not exceed 500000. Mo is sure to convince the court, "Merton said with a harmless smile.


    "This..." the monks couldn''t help but focus on the number of 500000 degrees. Moreover, the Buddhists themselves should be able to read scriptures and Sanskrit. All the eminent monks present here naturally thought that it was basic common sense for the monks to be proficient in scriptures. They couldn''t help nodding subconsciously.


    It''s not difficult for a group of eminent monks to read scriptures and Sanskrit. However, they don''t know that more monks learn these things only after they have been exposed to them in temples for several years. If secular people are allowed to recite Buddhist scriptures, I''m afraid they can only do it if they are truly devout and devote themselves to Buddhist believers, and more people have given up halfway.


    Among the monks, only master Huiyuan and master farIn looked at Merton with sharp eyes and saw the plans of the Mohists thoroughly, but Rao was so. They looked at each other, but they didn''t stop.


    Because this is really good for Buddhists and greatly improves the quality of Buddhists. Although it limits the number of Buddhists, they were silent one after another when they thought of the tragedy of two martial arts killing Buddhists.


    "There are so many literate people in the world. Almost all the schools have occupied it, and how many Buddhists can there be..." naturally, the defense machine would not be so kind. Merton suddenly helped the Buddhists so much. He could not help but retort that all the schools have selected talents, and there are no talents left for the Buddhists.


    Merton sneered: "Nowadays, Confucianism has private schools, official schools, doctors have medical schools, and Mohism has compulsory education. Even the strategists who are usually called big soldiers have begun to require reading and literacy, set up military academies and train officers. If Buddhism wants to rise and embark on the road of rejuvenation, I''m afraid it''s even more difficult if it still wants to keep incomplete. In addition, Zu Mingjun behind me has been committed to compulsory education for the whole people Education, if Buddhism has a heart, can contribute, and then naturally there will be no literate believers. "


    Master Falin was suddenly silent. Master Huiyuan was far away in Shaolin. Naturally, he didn''t know the changes of Chang''an City, but he stretched out Chang''an City and knew how brilliant the achievements of hundreds of schools of thought in Chang''an City in recent years. In contrast, Buddhism is far inferior.


    Some Buddhists used to attract believers. There is no hiding place in front of all schools of thought. The failure of the Great Mercy Temple is the best example. If Buddhists do not change, I''m afraid Buddhists will lag behind the whole era compared with all schools of thought..


    "The Buddhist school can help all living beings, but the master of Mo Shi wants the Buddhist school to set its own threshold. This is against the Buddhist doctrine. Please forgive the Buddhist school for not being able to do it." master Huichang shook his head and retorted.


    "Once the Imperial Court issues an ultimatum, it is to recognize the identity of Buddhism and enjoy certain privileges of exemption from corvee and tax. Mo still said that there is no love for no reason in the world. If Buddhism wants to enjoy these privileges, it doesn''t want to pay any price. It''s too serious." Merton retorted mercilessly.


    "Moreover, Mo once again reiterated that the reason why people don''t issue Dudie is because the Buddhism is not good. Naturally, they can''t blame others. Besides, it''s not impossible to practice. They just have to serve corvee and pay field tax like ordinary people. If they achieve the practice, the natural court will issue Dudie again, and it''s not too late to serve the Buddha at that time." Merton added.


    "This is acceptable to Buddhists. After all, this is also good for Buddhists!" Master Huiyuan made a final decision. The destruction of Buddhism by two martial arts has caused heavy losses to the Buddhist family, but it doesn''t matter that the Buddhist family has a wide range of believers, regardless of their qualifications, resulting in a mixture of good and bad people, and has repeatedly damaged the reputation of the Buddhist family. Although this move has limited the development of the Buddhist family, it can exclude some people who make up numbers from the Buddhist family, which is of great benefit to the long-term development of the Buddhist family.

 Chapter 802

    Merton looked at the determined Huiyuan master unexpectedly and nodded: "Buddhism has made a wise choice. The reason why our hundred theories have been spread for thousands of years is our self-discipline and rationality. Nowadays, doctors cooperate with many doctors to form a hospital, which solves the shortage of doctors. Taoism divides waidan school, and its theory is no longer flawed. Mohism abandons political ideas and specializes in ink technology. In contrast, Mohism , the sacrifice made by Buddhism is nothing. "


    Merton said impolitely, but a group of monks could not refute it. Yes, now all schools are seeking development. Compared with the decisions of all schools, Buddhism really can''t see the situation clearly.


    The most critical thing about Buddhism is that it does not work. If the number of Buddhists can be limited and controlled within the range that the imperial court can bear, then the Buddhists will have no shortcomings and really carry forward.


    "In addition, there is a short board of Buddhism that needs to be solved to ensure worry free!" Merton added.


    "Please give me some advice!" master Huiyuan said solemnly. At the moment, he no longer despised Merton.


    "Temple field!" Merton said word by word.


    "Temple field!" the monks looked at each other. They thought Merton would say about the gilding of Buddha statues, but they didn''t expect to mention Temple field.


    Merton Lang said: "during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there were disputes in the world and people suffered. However, some smart people found a way to avoid heavy corvee and field rent."


    The monks'' faces suddenly became unnatural. They naturally knew that this method was to become monks, because monks could be exempted from corvee and field rent, and Buddhists used this method to expand rapidly. The number of monks and nuns suddenly reached 3 million, which eventually attracted a crazy counterattack in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.


    "If the people are suffering, how can Buddhists not save at the sight of death!" said master Huichang with awe inspiring justice.


    "Yes, you have become the Savior of the people. The people only need to meditate and chant Buddha, so they can get a lot of temple fields without corvee and paying field rent. What about the court? There are no soldiers in the war, no silver in the payment, and there are finished eggs under the nest. Once the world is in chaos, how can the Buddhist family be alone? How many Buddha''s gold bodies have been scraped and bronze statues have been destroyed in troubled times The Buddhist temple will be destroyed once it is robbed, "said Merton.


    "The Buddha said: if I don''t go to hell, I will go to hell. This is the Buddhist family. I should have this disaster." master Huiyuan said with a sad face.


    "One disaster and two disasters are not enough. Do you want to do it again for the third time? Now many temples are going back to the old way, wantonly accepting the believers'' properties, and even allowing the people to hang the properties under the temple fields. Many temples give money to the people. Whenever the people can''t afford it, they can only take the properties to offset the account."


    Merton sneered and glanced at the faces of a group of eminent monks. Many eminent monks could not help lowering their heads. They naturally knew the situation of their own temple and couldn''t help lowering their heads with guilt.


    "As far as I know, the Buddhists are not short of money, not to mention the temple fields under your name. There are not a few incense money worshipped by believers at ordinary times. It seems that the Buddhists are too greedy." the children of the Mohists under Merton''s name are constantly collecting information for the Ink magazine, and Merton can be said to know the situation of the Buddhists like the back of his hand.


    Master Huichang said with a look of Hao Ran: "although we collect money widely, it is not for selfish desires, but to revive Buddhism and serve the Buddha in the future."


    Other eminent monks could not help nodding. Reviving Buddhism is the belief of many eminent monks. However, it costs a lot to build temples, cast Buddha statues and gilt bodies. Monks are vegetarian and spend little on weekdays. Most of the money of temples is used in these places.


    "It was the Buddhists who chose such a wrong way that there was the disaster of two martial arts to destroy the Buddha," Merton affirmed.


    "On the wrong road, you are allowed to earn countless money from the Mohist school, but you are not allowed to collect money and build temples." the defense machine could not help retorting again.


    The monks could not help nodding. Everyone knows that Mohist ink technology is unique in the world. Every reality of ink technology will bring huge benefits to Mohist. Mohist village is the first village in the world, and every village goes to the door. Even Buddhists have heard for a long time. However, when they heard that Mohist son only allows Mohist to set fire and does not allow people to light lights, the monks were unhappy.


    Merton took a cold look at the debater and retorted: "All the money of the Mohist school is earned by the children of the Mohist school. Every article is innocent. Moreover, as early as the rise of the Mohist school, Mo had foreseen today''s situation and had already given up the privilege of tax exemption. The tax paid by the court every year is up to tens of thousands of yuan, which also blocked the people''s long mouth. What about Buddhism?"


    Mohist ink technology is useful to both the country and the people, and has contributed a huge amount of taxes to the imperial court. Buddhism not only does not produce, but also occupies the privilege of tax exemption. It frantically digs the corners of the Imperial Hall and turns the tax field originally paid into the tax-free Temple field of the temple, which has caused great losses to the imperial court. In this comparison, it is ruled that the last layer of shame cloth of Buddhism has been completely lifted.


    The monks were silent, but no one was willing to give up their interests.


    "What''s the opinion of the imperial court? My Buddhist family can''t own the temple field?" master Huiyuan frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not that you can''t own temple fields, but you can''t annex land with the privilege of tax exemption. If the land tax is the foundation of the country and the National Treasury is empty, the imperial court will naturally find the reason. At that time..."


    Merton didn''t finish, but the monks knew that at that time, the court would naturally attack the rich Buddhists with a large number of temple fields. I''m afraid this is when the third Buddhist robbery comes.


    "Please give me some advice," said master Huiyuan solemnly to Merton.


    Merton said impolitely, "there are two methods. It depends on how the Buddhists choose. First, the Dudie stipulates the number of tax-free Temple fields for each monk."


    The monks'' faces relaxed. It would not be unacceptable to give each monk a tax-free Temple field.


    "From my point of view, a monk has 50 mu of duty-free temple land!" said master Lang of Huichang.


    Other eminent monks also nodded in favor of the proposal.


    Merton nodded irrefutably, turned his head to Zu Mingjun and asked, "what is the tax rate of my land tax?"


    "Fifteen taxes and one." Zu Mingjun replied without hesitation.


    "Now, thanks to the promotion of Mohist experimental fields, the yield per mu has reached four loads, and what is 15 taxes and one?" Merton said with a puzzled face.


    "About 35 Jin!" Zu Mingjun replied.


    "So the land tax on 50 mu of land is............."


    "One thousand seven hundred and twenty-five kilograms."


    Merton suddenly realized, looked at master Huichang with an incredible look and said, "boy, I didn''t expect that a monk''s appetite was so big that he could eat 1725 kilograms of grain a year."


    In an instant, master Huichang blushed. He could hear that Merton secretly satirized that the Buddhist appetite was too big. After Shen Hongcai''s calculation of one kilogram of food per person, one person could only eat three or four hundred kilograms of food a year, and Zu Mingjun''s cold figure immediately exposed his greed.


    "Each monk is exempt from tax for 20 mu! There can be no less. Besides eating, the Buddhist family also has other expenses, and the Buddhist family needs to develop." master farIn said firmly.


    Other monks could not help but show a reluctant expression on their faces. Twenty acres could not satisfy them. However, Falin was a Dharma protector and respected his status. It was hard for everyone to say anything?


    Merton smiled irrefutably, turned to master Huiyuan and asked, "what''s your opinion?"


    After closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, master Huiyuan suddenly opened his eyes and said firmly, "Buddhists give up the privilege of tax exemption! Don''t even have the privilege of tax exemption for one mu."


    "What?" almost all the eminent monks looked at master Huiyuan with a look of horror and wonder. To know that the Buddhist temples in the world talk about the scale of temple fields, Shaolin Temple is the largest in the world. Not only does Shaolin have a long history, but also after Shaolin stick monk saved Li Shimin, Li Shimin also rewarded Shaolin with rich Temple fields, adding up to nearly 10000 mu. If all of them pay land tax, That''s not a small number.


    "It''s wrong to exempt one hundred mu from tax in front of the world, and it''s also wrong to exempt one mu from tax. In that case, why should my Buddhist family bear this fault? It''s better to give up the tax exemption in order to preserve my Buddhist reputation." master Huiyuan explained.


    Today''s goal is to solve the hidden danger of Buddhism. Since the tax-free Temple field is one of the sources of the robbery of Buddhism, it is better to have a long pain than a short pain. This hidden danger can be solved at one time. In this way, it can also prevent people from avoiding the land tax and hanging their fields in the temple.


    Merton looked at master Huiyuan in surprise and said with sincere admiration: "master is wise, Mo admires."


    There are nearly 10000 mu of temple fields in Shaolin Temple. All of them give up tax exemption for one year, but the loss is not a small amount.


    Master Huiyuan shook his head and sighed, "it''s a pity that there are no figures like master Mo in my Buddhism, otherwise I won''t suffer twice in a row."


    The reason why he decided to give up the tax exemption of Sitian is that the Mohist school gave up the tax exemption privilege. Mohist school, like Buddhism, seems to have the tax exemption privilege and can get great benefits in the short term, but it gives the handle to be attacked. Moreover, if he has loopholes and shortcomings, it will only collapse more and more like an egg breaking a hole.


    Merton looked at many Buddhist monks with a reluctant look on their face. Then he smiled knowingly and said, "in the close book of Mohism, Mohist saint has a story. Please taste it."


    "I''ll listen to Mohist''s instruction!" master Huiyuan said respectfully.


    "Mo Sheng once traveled to the state of Chu and stayed at a shepherd''s house. The next morning, the shepherd found that there was a sheep missing from the sheepfold. After careful investigation, it turned out that there was a hole in the sheepfold. At night, the wolf came in and took one of the sheep away. Mo Sheng advised him," repair the sheepfold quickly and plug the hole! "The man refused to accept the advice and stubbornly said: "The sheep have been lost. Why do you repair the sheepfold?"


    As a result, the shepherd found another sheep missing the next morning. He regretted not listening to Mo Sheng''s words. He quickly blocked the hole, repaired the sheepfold, and never lost a sheep again.


    This matter was widely spread in the state of Chu. During the Warring States period, Zhuang Xin, a doctor of the state of Chu, advised King Xiang of Chu that it was not too late to look after the dog when he saw the rabbit; it was not too late to mend the lost sheep. "


    "Make up for the lost!" master Huiyuan was shocked, his eyes flashed, and blurted out.


    "Yes, now the Buddhist family has lost sheep twice. Don''t you want to fix the sheepfold?" Merton enlightens the deaf.


    The eminent monks were as silent as death, and the original discontent disappeared. Mohists and Taoists abandoned part of their ideas and completed their own theories. It can be said that they had fixed the sheepfold just by losing a sheep.


    The Buddhist family was robbed twice in a row, but it was still stubborn. In contrast, it was too stupid. In fact, the Buddhist family was more than stubborn. It was not until it experienced the misfortune of three martial arts and one sect and was robbed four times in a row. After the Song Dynasty, the Buddhist family slowly reflected on itself.


    "Amitabha, it''s safe to do so, but I''m afraid it will be difficult for our Buddhist family to develop again!" master farIn said with emotion.


    Merton retorted, "master Naro, who cheated on the streets of Chang''an a few days ago, is not pure, but he is a real ascetic monk in Tianzhu. I''m afraid Buddhism is too far away!"


    Tianzhu ascetic monks live a very hard life and devote their lives to the Buddha. In contrast, the days of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty are simply a paradise in the West.


    All the eminent monks were not by Hao Ran.


    Huiyuan master Lang Sheng said, "it''s decided that even if we give up the tax exemption of the temple field, there will be a lot of surplus food left in the temple field. Coupled with the believers'' incense money, if it is really unsustainable, my monks can go out for alms. There may be difficulties, but it''s just a test given to me by the Buddha."


    The monks are silent. If they lose their privileges, they can survive, but I''m afraid they won''t be as moist as they are now.


    "I Buddhist can accept this condition, but Buddhist still has one problem. Please ask benefactor Mo," master farIn said solemnly.


    Merton said positively, "master farIn, please speak!"


    "Buddhists have suffered many disasters, and Fu Yi and others have been attacking Buddhists. In addition to the above reasons, there is another reason to believe that Buddhists are Hu religion and believe in foreign gods. If this knot is not resolved, even if Buddhists do the above two points, it will be difficult to be listed among the hundreds of schools." master farIn said sadly and angrily.


    The scale and influence of Buddhism has been on a par with all schools of thought, but it has been excluded from the mainstream thought, which makes Buddhism quite aggrieved.


    Merton immediately pondered that if he could not solve the grievances of the Buddhist family, he would surely return without success today. At that moment, the light came and said, "you know the origin of Yuwen, Murong, Nangong and Huyan."


    "Who knows? This is the period of Wu Hu Luan Hua. The Hu people in the North left their descendants'' surnames in the south." the defense machine said proudly.


    Merton nodded, "you''re right. These surnames were indeed introduced into the Central Plains at that time."


    The defense machine couldn''t help smiling proudly. However, before he was proud for long, he heard Merton ask, "however, these surnames were called Hu people 300 years ago, and now which of these surnames is called Hu people, and the Buddhism has been introduced into the Tang Dynasty for 600 years and is still called Hu religion. Don''t the Buddhists know the reason?"


    The smile on the debater''s face suddenly solidified, and other monks were not surprised.


    "Sinicization!" master farIn said word by word.


    The reason why these Hu surnames are used to in the Tang Dynasty is that they speak Chinese, wear Chinese clothes and write Chinese. Except for one more word, all other customs are the same as those of the Han people. This is why Buddhism is different. No matter which one is different from the world, this is why they are called Hu religion.

 Chapter 803

    Merton looked at a group of Buddhist monks and Lang said, "with the news controlled by the Mohist school, this is the most prosperous place of Buddhism in the world. The first is the local Buddhism in Tianzhu, the second is the Esoteric Buddhism in the Tibetan Plateau, and the third is my Tang Buddhism. The boy calls it Han Buddhism."


    In fact, Buddhism still tends to spread to Johor Zhancheng and other countries, but now it is small in scale and has not attracted the attention of the world.


    The monks nodded one after another. These three places are indeed the most prosperous places of Buddhism.


    "However, Buddhism has been introduced into the Tang Dynasty for 600 years, and its teachings have not been integrated into China. What you have done is just translating Tianzhu scriptures, but there is no Scripture written by Chinese monks. Whenever Tianzhu monks come to preach scriptures, they are immediately cited as scriptures and regarded as supreme." Merton mercilessly criticizes the Buddhism of the Tang Dynasty, and takes the initiative to feed them to his mouth.


    Master Huiyuan''s face changed and Shaolin Temple''s status was respected. In fact, the name he relied on was just the founder of Dharma. Merton can be said to have talked about the pain of Buddhism.


    "Only when the Buddhists take the initiative to adapt to the Tang Dynasty can they gain a firm foothold in the Tang Dynasty. You masters only see that these compound surnames have spread in the Tang Dynasty, but I don''t know that many compound surnames have quietly disappeared. If the Buddhists want to revive or be excluded, it depends on their own choice." Merton said proudly.


    "Buddhism knows how to do it." master Huiyuan said solemnly. He knew that if the Buddhists wanted to integrate into the Tang Dynasty, they had to fit the Buddhist doctrine with the Chinese, and the Tianzhu Buddhist doctrine they had brought directly before obviously did not adapt to the national conditions of the Tang Dynasty, so there was the disaster of two martial arts to destroy the Buddha.


    Merton continued mercilessly: "and the boy thinks that if Buddhism wants to revive, it''s a big mistake to just pursue the number of monks and temples."


    "Very wrong!" the monks looked at each other. If the Mo family had said so before, they would have been furious. Now they don''t dare to underestimate the Mo family anymore.


    "Yes, the reason why all schools of thought can inherit for thousands of years depends on these foreign objects?" Merton asked.


    Master Huiyuan couldn''t help thinking about the revival of Mohism.


    "No, of course not. The most valuable thing for all schools of thought is our theory, our scriptures and our ideas. Even if Mohism takes the opportunity for thousands of years, as long as there is the Mojing, it can still recover. However, Buddhism abandons the vast Buddhist scriptures in Tianzhu and uses the number of disciples and temples to prove the prosperity of Buddhism, which makes people laugh." Merton shouted.


    "Abandon the book to the end!"


    "Smile generously!"


    Hao Ran, a group of eminent monks, could not help but wonder which of the hundred schools of thought is not trying to develop its own theory. Take Mohism, for example, although it has been silent for thousands of years, as long as there are Mohist scriptures, Mohism will certainly regain its vitality.


    Buddhism is only the largest number of temples and monks, and finally suffered two disasters in a row. No wonder Merton satirized that Buddhism abandoned its roots and ignored the end.


    "Learn from Tianzhu?" however, many eminent monks frowned.


    Merton said with emotion: "you were in the Tang Dynasty, and Mo respected an eminent monk, but made a great wish, went through thousands of hardships and traveled thousands of miles to Tianzhu to seek the Scripture."


    "Xuanzang!" the monks were in an uproar. Naturally, they knew that Merton was talking about master Xuanzang. It has always been said that Tianzhu monks came to the Tang Dynasty, while Xuanzang was a Tang monk who went to Tianzhu alone to study scriptures, and he went there himself. The difficulties can be imagined and known. In addition, his life and death are unknown. It can be said that it is a negative example among the monks of the Tang Dynasty, One after another regretted that a future eminent monk of Buddhism had gone astray.


    "Did Xuanzang really reach the holy land of Tianzhu?" master Huiyuan was surprised. You know, Tianzhu is the most prosperous holy land of Buddhism. I''m afraid it''s a dream of every monk to go to Tianzhu to study scriptures in person. However, Xuanzang has never heard from him, and almost all the monks think he failed.


    Merton solemnly nodded his head and said, "according to the Tianzhu businessman, I once saw a monk of the Tang Dynasty in Nalanda temple, the holy land of Buddhism in Tianzhu. His Buddhism is profound and unmatched. He was selected as one of the ten virtues familiar with Sanzang and called Sanzang master."


    "Master Sanzang!" the monks were shocked. Naturally, they knew that they were all proficient in Buddhism. Naturally, they knew how noble the title of master Sanzang was.


    "That must be Xuanzang. I knew Xuanzang would succeed!" master Huiyuan said excitedly. Xuanzang was born in a Buddhist temple in Luoyang. He also had a lot of connections with Shaolin Temple.


    Merton said positively, "if the Buddhist school has the intention, the Mohist school can pass on the message, communicate with master Xuanzang, let the scriptures of the Tang Dynasty and Tianzhu communicate with each other, translate all the Buddhist Scriptures into Chinese, and the Buddhist school can carry them forward. This is the best time for the revival of the Buddhist School of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the best opportunity for the Sinicization of the Buddhist school and get rid of the prejudice of the Hu religion."


    In history, when master Xuanzang returned, he brought 657 scriptures. However, for the scriptures of Tianzhu, they are only a small part. With the help of Mohism, the Scriptures transmitted to the Tang Dynasty will be several times more, which is of great significance to Buddhism.


    The breath of a group of monks suddenly became heavy, and this condition had almost no confidence to reject Buddhism.


    "It''s too easy for Mo hou to say. According to the little monk, master Xuanzang went through a lot of hardships and spent four years to reach Tianzhu. It took eight years to come back. There are enough things to happen in eight years. How can you fulfill today''s promise?" the defense machine snorted coldly.


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "it seems that Mo''s evaluation of the Buddhism is not wrong. The Buddhism is really not only enjoying its success, but also watching the sky. As early as two years ago, the boy once said that there is more than one way to Tianzhu. Master Xuanzang chose the most difficult road for his great wish."


    "More than one?" master farIn''s eyes flashed and couldn''t help looking at Merton. He knew that Tianzhu numbers were learned from Tianzhu by Mohist ancestors.


    "Yes, one of them is the path taken by the ancestors of Mohism. They directly cross the Tibetan Plateau and go to Tianzhu. Although they have to go through the test of altitude reaction, Datang has defeated Tuyuhun. There are also special envoys in Tubo. It is several times more convenient than in the past. If there is no accident, it is only a few months'' journey from Lanzhou to Tianzhu. Of course, there are only a few months We need the Buddhists to get through our own checkpoints, "Merton said.


    Many monks can''t help thinking that Tubo is also a prosperous Buddhism. According to theory, they all belong to the same family, and the nibra connected with Tubo is the birthplace of Buddha. Crossing nibra is the place of Tianzhu. There are the same families all the way. This road can be said to be the most convenient, and the only disadvantage is Tubo''s plateau reaction.


    "In addition to the road to the Tibetan Plateau, there is also a sea route. According to Johor businessmen, Johor and other countries are also across the sea from Tianzhu. There are many sea merchants on the Lingnan road of the Tang Dynasty, and there are also sea charts to Tianzhu. One time and one year is enough. Although there is a risk, it is better than the loading capacity. It will only take one trip, which is enough to transport all the scriptures from Tianzhu. These three roads are still open Is it not enough for Buddhism to choose? "Merton said a few words and ran the debate Machine speechless.


    The Buddhist monks immediately thought and calculated one by one at the bottom of their hearts. After some analysis by Mohist Zi, there were so many choices for what they thought was extremely difficult. Although these three roads were not easy to go, the road to the western regions was too far, and the road to the plateau was recent, they were in danger of altitude reaction, and the sea route was also in danger of storm. "


    "I choose the path of the plateau for Buddhism," master farIn said.


    The road to the plateau seems risky. However, it is convenient enough that Datang has conquered Tuyuhun and has a special envoy in Tubo. In addition, the plateau reaction has been cracked during the western expedition to Tuyuhun. As long as you adapt to it for a period of time, the plateau reaction can be cured without medicine. Moreover, the ancestors of Mohism can cross the Tibetan Plateau. Can''t his Buddhism compare with Mohism?


    "No!" master Huiyuan shook his head and said, "there are three roads for Buddhism. Now Xuanzang takes the road of the western regions, and we need to not miss one of the plateau and sea roads. This is related to the revival of Buddhism and should not be lost."


    "Master Huiyuan is wise!" the monks nodded one after another.


    "Thank you, master Mo Shi, for pointing out the way to the revival of Buddhism." master Huiyuan said solemnly.


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help smiling. He immediately knew that today''s goal had been achieved. At the moment, he said in a straight face: "Mo is not for Buddhism, but for the Tang Dynasty. Do you know why Xuanzang was respected when he traveled west?"


    The monks looked at Merton puzzled.


    "Tang monk!" Merton said solemnly.


    "Every time master Xuanzang goes to a country in Tianzhu, he will be treated with courtesy by the kings of various countries. The biggest reason is that the Tang Dynasty is becoming stronger and stronger. Your majesty marched north to the East Turks and west to Tuyuhun. Every time he defeated a country, master Xuanzang received more and more ceremonious treatment in other countries. In the future, the Tang Dynasty will be stronger and Buddhism will flourish. When people mention Buddhism, they will think that it is the monks of the Tang Dynasty, not Tianzhu Monks, all countries come to the Tang Dynasty to seek scriptures, not to Tianzhu. "Merton said excitedly.


    "Tang monk!" a group of monks suddenly thought, and their dissatisfaction with the restriction of Buddhism immediately disappeared.

 Chapter 804

    "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been in a dilemma, and disputes between the state and the family have been everywhere. If we were ordinary people, as long as we were not in the situation of major right and wrong, it would be understandable to consider our own family wholeheartedly. However, when we developed our own theory, if we could not serve the country and the people, we would end up empty. There was a country first and then a family. At the beginning, countless Mohist children In order to stabilize the world, he abandoned his family and went to the battlefield, which gave rise to the Mohist concept of universal love and non aggression. Confucius traveled all over the world and wandered all his life. Legalists died a good death for the sake of national prosperity and reform, but they still went on and on one after another


    Merton spits out the idea of home and country in his heart. At the beginning, many children of the Mohist school did not understand why the Mohist school made so many ink skills public. It is true that if the Mohist School controlled it, it could indeed make a windfall.


    However, it is only a rich Mohist family. Only when the whole world benefits from Mohist ink technology and has a deep foundation, Mohist will really revive and develop its own theory.


    "If there is another fat world and thin world in this world, Buddhism is a lesson," Merton said solemnly.


    "One family is fat and the world is thin!" the monks couldn''t help but Hao Ran. When the second martial arts destroyed the Buddha, the Buddhist family occupied one tenth of the world''s population. The imperial court had no military resources, no wealth and was very poor. Didn''t it just respond to the Buddhist saying that the world is fat and thin.


    In this way, it can be said that the two robberies of Buddhism are not unjust at all. Buddhism does not consider the world, and the world naturally abandons Buddhism.


    "The master of Mohism is really brilliant! Buddhists are taught!" master Huiyuan said solemnly.


    Master farIn said with a smile, "master Huiyuan doesn''t know. Speaking of it, benefactor Mo is a master of hundreds of schools, but he is also a person who has practiced Buddhism, and the Buddhism is not shallow."


    "Seriously?" master Huiyuan said in surprise.


    "That''s nature!" master farIn said in a loud voice, "everyone knows that benefactor Mo''s poetry is extraordinary. Among them, more than half of the que poems have been made, which has made the whole Buddhism a sensation."


    "The Dharma of peace and contentment in the world is not negative to the Tathagata, not negative to Qing." an eminent monk sang aloud.


    Master Huiyuan''s eyes lit up. Although this poem has only two sentences, it tells the true meaning of Buddhism and vividly describes the hesitation of Buddhist children in the face of the temptation of the world of mortals.


    "It''s a pity that we Buddhists can''t have children like master Mo Shi." master Huiyuan said with emotion, and the other monks nodded one after another.


    At the moment, when hearing the praise of the monks, the debate Machine couldn''t help but feel impetuous. In his mind, he involuntarily showed the flirtation of the lady when he went to Luoyang. His anger became more and more prosperous. He couldn''t help but jump out at once: "I don''t agree with you. It''s a matter of Buddhism. Although master Mo Shi represents the imperial court, he is also one of the hundreds of schools of thought. It''s hard to be selfish!"


    When other eminent monks saw the defense plane''s active opposition, their eyes flashed, and no one came out to stop it. Although the defense plane''s move was reckless, it said a lot of concerns from the bottom of the heart of Buddhism. What Merton said is indeed justified. However, he is a figure of hundreds of schools of thought. Although Mohism has just revived, he has not participated in the previous two disasters of Buddhism, and there is no actual conflict with Buddhism, However, after all, mojiazi is a member of all schools. No one can guarantee that mojiazi has no selfishness.


    Merton raised his head, looked at the debate for the first time from beginning to end and said, "what should I do in your words?"


    The debater proudly said, "whenever my Buddhist family meets different ideas, eminent monks gather to argue with the Scriptures. The little monk knows that master Mo Shi has a lot of wisdom in cultivating hundreds of schools. Today we will argue with the Buddhist scriptures. If master Mo can convince the little monk with the Buddhist scriptures, the little monk will take it orally."


    Merton smiled, turned to the monks and asked, "what do you mean?"


    Master Huichang immediately defended the short way: "if benefactor Mo uses the Buddhist Sutra to argue down the debate machine, we can also explain to the monks and nuns all over the world, otherwise I''m afraid it''s hard for the Buddhists to be convinced."


    In his opinion, although the defense machine is not as good as the mojiazi in terms of reputation and knowledge, but in terms of Buddhist scriptures, the defense machine has long been the leader of the next generation of Buddhism. Moreover, although the mojiazi is also the same as the Buddha Dharma, it is only a part-time practice. It can''t be compared with the defense machine. In his opinion, the defense machine has a safe chance of winning and will not be blocked.


    Many monks nodded one after another. He admitted that there was some truth in what Mozi said, but all of them were limited by Buddhism. Mozi only gave two routes to seek Buddhist scriptures, which I''m afraid it would be difficult to convince monks all over the world.


    This time, even master Huiyuan and master Falin didn''t refute. After all, they have to consider the long mouth of the Buddhist monks. If they don''t let the monks breathe, they may not be able to hold them down.


    They didn''t care whether mojiazi was willing or not. After all, when mojiazi came to act as a lobbyist of the imperial court, they knew that such an encounter would happen.


    Seeing this, Merton closed his hands and solemnly said, "Amitabha, please, Taoist brother!"


    Hearing the speech, the debater could not help but show a smile that he was determined to win. He admitted that mojiazi was indeed unique in poetry, but he was another magic weapon to win.


    The defense machine Lang said: "although I stayed in Shaolin for a short time, in addition to meeting master Huiyuan, I also got a great harvest, that is, I was able to pay a new year''s call on master Shenxiu. Master Shenxiu''s Buddhism is profound. There is a poem that benefited me a lot. I''ve heard that donor Mo''s poetry is peerless. Please give me some advice."


    "God show?" Merton''s eyes flashed.


    "The body is a bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror. Wipe it frequently from time to time, so as not to provoke dust!" the defense machine Lang said.


    "This is the poem of God show?" the monks were in an uproar.


    In those days, Sakyamuni realized under the bodhi tree. The mirror is an allusion of Shaolin Zen. You can keep the Buddha''s heart pure by brushing it often. This poem is rich in philosophy and can be said to be full of Buddhism. It is a rare classic Bodhi rest of Buddhism.


    "Master Shenxiu is really smart. As the saying goes, God rewards diligence and practices Buddhism diligently. You will succeed in the future. It can be seen that master Shenxiu has obtained the Tao." Merton sincerely praised him.


    Master Falin couldn''t help smiling proudly. Shenxiu is the mainstay of Buddhism. Being able to get the appreciation of Mohist Zi naturally makes his face shine.


    "Little monk, listen to master Mo Shi''s comments." the debater pressed step by step.


    Merton looked around, revealing a trace of shyness and said, "I also heard the allusions of the Buddha''s Enlightenment under the bodhi tree. I feel it. There is a poem that fits this very well. Bodhi has no tree and the mirror is not a platform. There is nothing. Where can I provoke dust!"


    "Bodhi has no trees, and the mirror is not a platform?"


    "There was nothing, where did you provoke dust!"


    The monks were moved and looked at mojiazi in horror. Shenxiu was a famous teacher, proficient in Buddhism, and had long been famous all over the world. However, mojiazi was just a part-time Buddhist. He was able to make poems against Shenxiu, and even vaguely suppressed Shenxiu, because Buddhism attached the most importance to understanding, and mojiazi''s poems were full of enlightenment philosophy.


    "The Mohist is really brilliant and has such savvy!" master farIn said with emotion. The Mohist can make such a poem full of Buddhist theory, which is enough to prove his superior savvy.


    "It''s a pity that he is a son of Mohism!" all the monks regretted.

 Chapter 805

    Debate machine carefully tasted mojiazi''s Bodhi rest. He was not depressed. No one thought that mojiazi had made a Bodhi rest completely opposite to Shenxiu Buddhism, but so full of Buddhism.


    However, Shenxiu''s Bodhi rest is also extraordinary. It is absolutely impossible for him to admit defeat in this way. At present, the defense machine said in a loud voice: "the Buddha told Ananda: ''all Bodhisattvas in that country should make amends in their whole life. In addition to their original wish, they should be solemn for all living beings by making great vows of merit and virtue, and want to spend all living beings''


    The monks nodded after hearing the speech. This is the content of the Buddhist "wuliangshou Sutra", which is the Buddhist concept of universal life. The argument to quote the "wuliangshou Sutra" is the dissatisfaction and counterattack against the Mohist son''s restriction of the number of Buddhists with an ultimatum.


    Upon hearing this, Merton retorted, "Ananda is one of the top ten disciples of the Buddha. I happen to know one of the allusions again. It is said that Ananda, a disciple of the Buddha, met a girl in the Tao before becoming a monk and has been in love with her ever since. The Buddha asked him how much you like this girl."


    Ananda replied, "I would like to incarnate as a stone bridge and be exposed to the wind, sun and rain for five hundred years, but I ask the girl to walk over the bridge."


    Merton''s voice is full of magnetism, so that everyone can''t help being immersed in this love story full of Zen. Even if the monks have been practicing for many years, they can''t help shaking their hearts when they hear this story. The last time they felt this, I''m afraid it was when Liang Zhuhong spread all over the world. In addition, nothing else can touch the heartstrings of the monks.


    Master Huiyuan was moved again. Although they had never heard of the story told by Mohist Zi, they all thought that the Mohist ancestors brought it back from Tianzhu without doubt. Moreover, this story is full of philosophy, which is just in line with the Zen theory of Buddhism.


    What is more surprising is that in the story, the Buddha Ananda spent 500 years for a woman, competing with the Buddhist concept of universal living quoted by the defense machine. However, such a contradictory conflict is so harmonious in the Buddhism.


    "One can live for 500 years for the sake of the world. Ananda is worthy of my Buddha." master farIn affirmed the story of Mozi without hesitation. Of course, he knows how good such allusions have had on Buddhism. Mozi is famous for its classic allusions written by Mozi, Naturally, Buddhists will not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.


    "I would like to be incarnated as a stone bridge!" although the debate machine has extraordinary wisdom, the Buddha''s heart is not firm, and his mind almost collapses when he hears the speech.


    Liang Zhu''s story, the love story between Mohist and Princess Changle, and the Buddha Ananda''s stone bridge love, both of them are envied by people. In particular, Ananda''s stone bridge love makes the gap of the Buddha''s heart of the defense machine crack again. Love, the most beautiful emotion in the world, has been completely lost before he has tasted the defense machine. How can he be reconciled.


    Fortunately, the defense machine also knew that he was very solemn at the moment, did not make a fool of himself in public, and tried to suppress his evil thoughts. He insisted: "the Buddha said, I don''t go to hell, and all living beings suffer if anyone goes to hell. Only my Buddha enters the world to save all living beings. Although my Buddhist family has been robbed twice, it is just a test of the Buddhist family by the Buddha! Even if there will be a third Buddhist disaster, the Buddhist family is not afraid."


    Although this argument is unreasonable, it has been approved by many monks. The Buddhists wantonly expand the monks and nuns and allow the people to rely on the land. Although it damages the interests of the imperial court, it is a just move to save the suffering and difficulties. After all, most of the monks attached to the Temple are desperate people, but because the Buddhists can survive, this is great mercy.


    Merton was silent in his heart. Of course, he knew that this was probably the voice of many monks. After all, Buddhism calls compassion. If he doesn''t save his life, I''m afraid his Buddhist heart will collapse.


    "Before coming here, Mo once read the historical materials of the two previous Buddhist dharma disasters. It was a pity for the Buddhist family, but there were some unruly people who damaged the reputation of the Buddhist family. With emotion, he wrote a Buddhist" clear rules "in the hope of helping the Buddhist family." Merton Lang said.


    "Buddhist Qinggui"


    Suddenly, everyone looked at Merton with a dull face. You know, Merton is a child of the Mohist School and even came to write Buddhist scriptures.


    Moreover, as Mohist Tzu said just now, before the Tang Dynasty, Buddhists had always translated Tianzhu scriptures. There had never been a Chinese monk, but they dared to say they wrote scriptures. Now this honor was preempted by an outsider.


    "The Mohist school is too arrogant. You are not afraid to defile the Buddha!" the defense machine was furious and said sarcastically.


    Other monks also looked indignant. Even mojiazi was just in front of the pearl jade that mojiazi had just rested with Bodhi, which made the monks more rational and didn''t lift the table on the spot.


    "I''d like to listen to the scriptures of benefactor mo." master Huiyuan said eagerly.


    "The jungle prospers by doing nothing. It is safe to practice by chanting Buddha. It is the first to be diligent and keep precepts. It is the soup medicine to reduce food for diseases." as Merton blurted out the rules and regulations one by one, the angry faces of the monks gradually disappeared and moved again. This regulation seems to restrict Buddhism one by one, but each one is very consistent with the concept of Buddhism.


    A group of monks looked at mojiazi in horror. The repeated robberies of Buddhism have something to do with the savage development of Buddhism. If such rules and regulations can restrain monks, I believe Buddhism can flourish.


    "If I''m a Buddhist, I should build an ancient temple in the famous mountain and meditate every day to understand Buddhism." Merton was moved.


    The debate machine didn''t believe the words of the Mohist School and couldn''t help but curl up. If you were in the mountains, I''m afraid you couldn''t even eat. Where would you still understand Buddhism.


    Merton ignored the strange eyes of the monks and continued: "in the ancient temple in the deep mountain, the winding path leads to the secluded place, and the Buddhist temple has deep plants and trees. Open up a field behind the temple and cultivate it yourself. Don''t cultivate one day and don''t eat one day. In this way, you can practice the Tao."


    "The winding path leads to the secluded place, and the flowers and trees in the meditation room are deep." the debate Machine stumbled, and Mo Jiazi blurted out another poem full of Buddhism.


    "One day no farming, one day no food." master Huiyuan did not care about the poem, but once again moved by Merton''s idea.


    Merton''s idea is tailor-made for Shaolin. Shaolin is located in Songshan mountain. In addition to the temple field rewarded by Li Shimin, there are many fields opened up by himself in the back mountain. In this way, Shaolin is self-sufficient and self reliant. Isn''t it a holy land for Buddha cultivation.


    "You let me go to the Buddhist family to plough!" the debate Machine said with an incredible face. Other monks also showed disapproval. They only need to chant scriptures and meditate every day in Chang''an temple, and they can have a lot of incense money to come to the door. Where can they still plough the land.


    Merton said, "save yourself before you save others. You can be upright only when you are upright. If Buddhism is a mud Bodhisattva crossing the river, you can''t protect yourself. How can you save the suffering of all sentient beings."


    What Merton said was merciless, and many monks suddenly blushed. If they can''t stand this pain, where can they talk about the ideal of the great wish of popularizing the law.


    "Benefactor Mo is really brilliant. If benefactor Mo is willing to join our Buddhist family, the Buddhist family will have a vacant seat as the sixth ancestor of Zen." master Huiyuan said solemnly.


    "The throne of the sixth ancestor!" the monks couldn''t help shouting. You should know that all schools of Buddhism are rampant. None of the five ancestors of Zen is a profound Buddhist monk. This five ancestor is Hongren, the master of Shenxiu. Other schools are eyeing the position of the sixth ancestor. No one thought that master Huiyuan had such a high evaluation of mojiazi.


    Moreover, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse. Although the Buddhist family has declined, it is much more prosperous than the Mohist family. The position of the sixth ancestor is not inferior to the current position of the Mohist family.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "Mo still has a new wife as his partner. The wish of Mohist revival has not been fulfilled. I''m afraid he will live up to the kindness of the master."


    He can also say that he has no meat every day and can''t stand the rules and regulations he just said.


    Hearing Mohist''s rejection, even if he was prepared, master Huiyuan sighed with regret, while the other monks were relieved.

 Chapter 806

    When mojiazi came to Wangji temple in person, the whole Chang''an city focused on Wangji temple.


    Before the former, there were many hidden lines, all classes of authors, nobles, Buddhists, Buddhists, even neutrals, who could not help coming to inquire about the news.


    However, as time passed, the gate of Wangji temple was always closed and there was no movement.


    However, the calmer the Wangji temple is, the more people understand that the confrontation in the Wangji temple is still going on. After all, this is related to the future development direction of Buddhism. Buddhism can especially be a fish on the chopping board.


    In the palace, Li Shimin couldn''t help but put down his memorial and asked, "how long has Merton been gone?"


    Pound on one side quickly replied, "Your Majesty, I have been in for two hours, and there has been no news."


    Merton has been in Wangji temple for too long. He is really anxious to wait. Among all the people, Li Shimin is the most tangled. It doesn''t matter whether others are anti Buddhism, support Buddhism or neutral people. As an emperor, Li Shimin naturally doesn''t want Buddhism to go to the opposite of the imperial court in the future and hopes that Buddhism will take the initiative to restrain himself.


    On the other hand, Shaolin Temple is also a benefactor of Buddhism. If Merton limits Buddhism too hard, I''m afraid he will bear such an ungrateful reputation.


    Doesn''t he know the reason why Erwu killed the Buddha? Even if he is in the second martial arts position, I''m afraid he will still start without hesitation. However, with the change of Xuanwu sect, he has lost the reputation of unfaithfulness and unfilial. If he adds the name of ingratitude because of Buddhism, his reputation will be destroyed. In addition, Buddhism has not recovered at the moment, which does no harm to Datang.


    This is the reason why he is unwilling to restrict Buddhism. If Merton hadn''t thrilled him with the current situation of the struggle between divine power and kingship, the anti Buddha wave would still end. Rao is so. He still doesn''t want to use strong means to limit theocracy, but asks Merton to come to discuss the matter with the Buddhism.


    "Merton, Buddhism! I hope you don''t let me down." Li Shimin closed his eyes and muttered. If the negotiation breaks down, it is time for him to face a choice.


    In the Mo mansion, they are also paying close attention to the Wangji temple.


    "My father is just right. Don''t you just find a minister and let Merton go." Princess Changle couldn''t help complaining.


    Merton''s going here is to restrict the Buddhism on behalf of the imperial court. The Buddhism can be willing to be arrested. If anything happens, it''s OK.


    "Madam, don''t worry. If you''re not sure, how can the young master go to the risk himself? Moreover, the young master is going on behalf of the imperial court this time. If you want to come to the Buddhist family, you don''t dare to take rash actions." Fu Bo comforted.


    Merton is the hope of the revival of Mohism. Although Faber is worried, he can only be calm.


    In the Fu family, Fu Yi walked back and forth anxiously and looked absent-minded. He was a firm anti Buddhist sect. He thought that mojiazi was his ally, but mojiazi put forward the idea of saving the Buddha. Now, mojiazi went to Wangji temple on behalf of the court to talk with the Buddha. His position is still unknown.


    Among them, everyone is hard to understand and anxiously waiting for the result.


    At the moment, in Wangji temple, with the defeat of the debate, the dispute between Merton and the monks has come to an end. Although some monks are reluctant to be limited by Buddhism, most eminent monks choose silence.


    Master Huiyuan smiled bitterly and said, "before I came to Chang''an, I came to Chang''an with the determination to sacrifice for my Buddha, but now this result has never occurred to the poor monk."


    "The merits and demerits are right and wrong. Only later generations can comment that you can resolve the Buddhist dharma disaster and save the Buddhist dharma from disaster. This merit is enough to make your Dharma perfect." Merton said positively.


    "Perfection of merit and virtue!" the monks could not help but breathe, and the originally conflicting psychology dissipated a lot.


    Master Huiyuan secretly called on the Mozi family to attack their hearts. The Buddhists attach great importance to merit and virtue. Merton''s words can be said to be right on the weakness of the monks.


    "I don''t care about the perfection of merit and virtue. I just want to be worthy of it. However, I think that Buddhism does not endanger the government of the Tang Dynasty. I have a good conversation with your majesty. Why is there such a big change overnight." master Huiyuan raised his head and looked at Merton wisely.


    This is what he couldn''t understand. At this time, the Buddhist family did not suffer from the Tang Dynasty, and he came with the kindness of Shaolin. In addition, he had a good conversation with Li Shimin before. He clearly felt that Li Shimin had begun to tend to Buddhism. Overnight, the attitude of the Court changed greatly, and the key lies in Li Shimin''s summoning Merton, If this problem is not solved, I''m afraid Buddhists will never be reconciled.


    "As the saying goes, take precautions. This is your Majesty''s plan for the Buddhist family. If one day you really reach the predicted scene, it will be of no benefit to the Buddhist family and the imperial court."


    "Your Majesty is wise. I''m very grateful to the Buddhists." master Huiyuan respectfully said, but his eyes still looked at Merton. Obviously, he didn''t believe what Mozi said.


    Seeing this, Merton was silent for a moment and said, "in addition, there is a secret of the imperial court, which can only be learned by master Huiyuan and master farIn. It can''t be spread out."


    The monks were stunned and focused on them one after another.


    Master farIn was stunned, nodded and said, "if you can convince me and others, today''s proposal will be accepted by the Buddhist family."


    Master Huiyuan nodded solemnly.


    "Two masters, please!" Merton solemnly got up and walked towards a meditation room.


    Falin and Huiyuan got up and followed. With the sound of the hammer, the meditation room closed heavily, leaving the monks and the two people with the same line of arithmetic looking at each other.


    After a long time, the door of the meditation room opened again, and the three went together. They looked harmonious and had no previous atmosphere of confrontation.


    "Please also tell your majesty that Buddhism appreciates your good intentions," master farIn said solemnly.


    "The Buddhist family is dignified and has the world in mind. Mo admires it. His majesty will be happy when he learns about it." Merton finally dropped the big stone in his heart. The Buddhist family is happy to see its success because it can restrain itself.


    Master Huiyuan recited the Buddha''s name and said, "in the morning tomorrow, the Buddhist will personally recite the memorial and ask the court to pass the Buddhist self-help plan."


    "Master, you are wise! No rules, no boundaries. Buddhism has set clear rules and regulations and embarked on the road of sound development. This is the broad road of Buddhist Revival." Merton solemnly said.


    When a group of monks heard the three people''s dialogue, they suddenly burst into an uproar. Only then did they understand that it must be Mohist Zi who persuaded Falin and Huiyuan, but no one knew the secret conversation between the three people in the meditation room.


    "Mo Mou leaves!" Merton bows his hands when he sees that something has happened here.


    Shen Hongcai and Zu Mingjun got up one after another and bowed their hands to the monks, who also got up to meet each other.


    As the closed gate of Wangji Temple opened, Merton took the lead, walked out of Wangji temple, stepped on the waiting carriage and walked away.


    Seeing that the carriage of mojiazi was far away, master Huiyuan and master farIn looked at each other. They couldn''t help but think of the secret conversation in the meditation room just now.


    "Christianity! * * * religion, Tianzhu religion!"


    "Buddhism has gradually declined in Tianzhu. Only Datang is the hope of Buddhism in the future. Only Datang is strong can Buddhism have the opportunity to become the most believer and most widely spread religion in the world."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In addition to solving his own internal problems for Buddhism, mojiazi also showed great foresight to lay out the world for Buddhism, which is the reason why he can really convince Buddhism.

 Chapter 807

    "The MOH family came out!"


    When at a loss about what to do, when every act and every move was made, almost all eyes were focused on every move, and even a look was not allowed. Until the carriage went away, a crowd of eyes looked at each other, and could not believe the scene they had seen.


    "Talking and laughing, there is no tearing face!"


    "Is it a deal?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One by one, people in the heart of the eye speculated that they had sent their own news to their master.


    "Could it be that the Buddhists really accept Mohist Zi''s idea of saving the Buddha!"


    Everyone who received the news couldn''t help but be in an uproar. After all, although Mohist Zi''s idea of saving the Buddha has some truth, how can Buddhists be willing to take the hoop curse personally.


    "Continue to explore, we must know the contents of the negotiations of the Buddhist temple in the temple of the dead." many people continue to give orders to the eyeliner.


    In a moment, a crowd of Eyeliner once again rushed to the temple of the dead, and only three of Mohist side could not break it. The Buddhist family is full of monks. How can the Buddhist family be willing to bind their hands and feet? Many monks must be dissatisfied. In fact, it is the best place to inquire about the news.


    In the Mo mansion,


    "Young master, come out of Wangji temple!" Mo Er rushed into the gate of Mo mansion and shouted loudly.


    "Really, that''s great!" fuber patted his chest hard, which relieved him.


    "Has Merton been wronged?" Princess Changle came and asked anxiously.


    Mo Er touched his head, thought and said, "I don''t think so. Master Huiyuan personally sent the young master to the gate of the temple. It seems that he didn''t turn his face."


    "What about Merton?" Princess Changle asked with a sigh of relief.


    Mo Er replied, "the young master boarded the carriage and went to the palace to recover his life. He was worried about the princess. Only then did he let Xiao come back to report."


    Princess Changle nodded, turned her head, waved to the gathered Mohist children and said, "it''s all scattered. What should I do?"


    "Yes, ma''am!" all the Mohist children immediately dispersed, completely unable to see the excitement of rushing into the Wangji temple to save the young master.


    In the palace.


    Li Shimin looked at the intelligence collected from Hu merchants in the western market about the extreme western country, Dashi and Tianzhu. He couldn''t help but feel cool all over and happy.


    In China, the reason why imperial power is still supreme is that in addition to Taoism''s emphasis on quiet and inaction, the contributions of all schools of thought are also indispensable. Although Taoism has a deep-rooted position in Chinese traditional religion, it is one of all schools of thought after all, and can not be dominated by one.


    However, foreign Buddhists, because of their shallow background and rapid development, were attacked twice by Erwu to put out the hidden dangers. Today, Merton''s task is to completely extinguish the hidden danger of theocracy from the bud, which can''t help but make him careless.


    "Your Majesty, marquis Mo has come out of Wangji temple and is on his way to the palace." pound went into the hall and bowed down to report.


    Li Shimin suddenly left and lost his voice: "have you ever talked about it?"


    This is what he is most concerned about. If it is not negotiated, I''m afraid he will be cursed as ungrateful and operate on Buddhism.


    "Wei Chen did not fail his mission." with his voice, Merton stepped into the hall.


    "The Buddhist family really agreed?" Li Shimin said strangely. He never thought it would be so smooth.


    Merton Lang said: "the Buddhist family is well aware of the great righteousness and the good intentions of his majesty. After Wei Chen conveyed his Majesty''s painstaking efforts to the Buddhist family, the Buddhist family deeply blamed itself. At present, the Buddhist family decided to close the temple and reflect on itself. Tomorrow morning, I will ask your majesty for approval."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but take a deep look at Merton. If it was really as easy as Merton said, it wouldn''t take so much time to return.


    "Don''t laugh, I want to know everything." Merton scolded.


    Merton angrily reported all his experiences to Li Shimin. When he said about the Dudie system, Li Shimin couldn''t help but exclaim: "500000 Dudie!"


    Li Shimin was not surprised by this figure. According to Merton''s calculation method, the 500000 Dudie is much less than the 2 million monks and nuns in the period of two Wu exterminating the Buddha, which is still a huge number.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not important to have 500000 monks and nuns. What''s important is the Dudie system."


    "Dudie!" Li Shimin frowned at Merton.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "Dudie is the most important step for the royal power to control the divine power. If any believer wants to become a monk, he must obtain Dudie. In fact, there are many Buddhist monks and few nuns. If the court divides one of the 500000 Dudie into two and half of the monks and nuns, he can further control the number of Buddhists. If the court still thinks that there are too many monks and nuns, it can increase the difficulty of obtaining Dudie In this way, there will be no disaster of two martial arts, and the hidden dangers of Buddhism can be eliminated. All the initiative lies in the hands of the imperial court. "


    Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Merton with appreciation. Lang said, "my Tang Dynasty embraces all rivers. As long as Buddhism does not affect the national economy and the people''s livelihood, I will not interfere with Buddhism."


    "Your Majesty is wise." Merton quickly flattered.


    This time, Li Shimin accepted it with peace of mind. He did it. Not only can Buddhism and Mohism develop so rapidly, but also can''t do without Li Shimin''s care.


    "Give up duty-free Temple field!"


    "Make up for the lost!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Wonderful, really wonderful!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but praise Merton''s narration. In this confrontation, the wisdom of Mohism and Buddhism was incisively and vividly expressed.


    The Mohist School persuaded the Buddhist family with the story of making up for the lost sheep. The Buddhist family was greatly touched, and even gave up the tax exemption privilege of the Buddhist family directly to make up for the most criticized shortcomings of the Buddhist family. The wisdom of the Mohist School and the Buddhist School clashed with each other and collided with a brilliant spark of wisdom.


    However, this is not over yet. Bodhi Xie, with the opposite ideas of master Shenxiu and Merton, surprised Li Shimin. The love of Buddha Ananda''s stone bridge made people cry. A piece of rules and commandments of Mohist school taught the profound meaning of Buddhist practice.


    "It''s really not a false name for Buddhism to flourish in the world!" Li Shimin sighed.


    Merton nodded solemnly, but from the perspective of scriptures, the quality and quantity of Buddhism can be said to be the best religion in the world. Coupled with its profound Zen theory, it is just in line with the philosophy of Chinese culture. Only then can it spread rapidly in the Central Plains.


    "I can help Buddhists to get Tianzhu scriptures," Li Shimin said solemnly. Since the Buddhism took the initiative to make concessions, he naturally can''t be stingy. In addition, Xuanzang''s journey to the West touched him deeply. It''s better to block than sparse. Since the Buddhism is willing, the imperial court can just transfer the focus of Buddhism to the Scriptures.


    As Merton said, when these scriptures are transmitted to the Tang Dynasty and translated into Chinese characters, they can take the opportunity to sinicize Buddhism and make Buddhism take the initiative to adapt to Chinese culture.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "in fact, even without Weichen, Buddhism has begun the trend of Sinicization."


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "Shaolin''s Zen is a new school of Buddhism, but it advocates self-reliance and meditation and meditation, which is very in line with Chinese culture. It is just that your majesty has ties with Shaolin. If you take the opportunity to establish the status of Shaolin''s Zen, you can repay the kindness, expand the influence of Zen in Buddhism and kill two birds with one stone."


    "Zen!" Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully, suddenly turned his head and asked, "in your opinion, what is the most appropriate reward?"


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty has given thousands of mu of good land to Shaolin. Naturally, there is no need to reward property. Moreover, your majesty once wrote the inscription of the first village in the world, which makes the Mojia village think it is supreme glory. Why does your majesty deliberately test the minister?"


    "The best village in the world!" Li Shimin thought of his favorite work. He couldn''t help but look proud. He saved a lot of rewards.


    Thinking of this, Li Shimin immediately knew what he should do - inscription.


    It''s just that the first temple in the world has long been decided. It''s the White Horse Temple in Luoyang. Otherwise, Li Shimin won''t have to think hard.


    At that moment, Li Shimin thought for a moment, picked up a pen and paper, raised his big hand, waved a brush, and the three words jumped onto the paper.


    "Shaolin Temple!"


    There is no need for too many titles. As long as it is written by Li Shimin, it is enough to make Shaolin the first Buddhist temple in the world.

 Chapter 808

    When Merton reported to Li Shimin, the news about Merton''s war of words with monks spread like flying in Chang''an city.


    Unexpectedly, this time, the Buddhist family did not have a sense of concealment. Instead, they passed the whole process through one by one, and at the same time, let a crowd of eyes scream at the same time. But at the same time, they were also puzzled. However, people naturally couldn''t take care of them.


    "Elder martial brother, why didn''t you give the forbidden order, but added fuel to the flames and made the secret discussion between Mohist and Buddhist open." Falin didn''t understand in Wangji temple.


    Master Huiyuan smiled and said, "after the event of the Great Mercy Temple, the reputation of Buddhism in Chang''an City has dropped to the freezing point, but mojiazi is at the height of the sun in Chang''an city."


    Master farIn suddenly said, "elder martial brother means to improve the reputation of Buddhism with the help of the reputation of Mohism."


    Master Huiyuan nodded without hesitation: "today''s Sutra debate seems that Buddhism is at a disadvantage, but we have taken the initiative to give way and sacrifice the interests of Buddhism for the Tang Dynasty. In addition, two Bodhi rests, the Buddha''s Ananda''s concept of ordinary beings and the love of a woman''s stone bridge, plus the Buddhist self-discipline rules and regulations If Buddhism does not take this opportunity to launch it, it will be difficult to achieve today''s effect even at a cost of ten times in the future. "


    It is difficult to change the reputation of Buddhism alone. However, the every move of Mozi has attracted much attention in Chang''an city. In addition, although Mozi seems to convince Buddhism, he uses Buddhist classics, which indirectly proves the wisdom and classics of Buddhism. I believe that the whole city is paying attention to the debate between Mohist and Buddhist families at this moment. If the Buddhist family does not take the opportunity to restore its reputation, when will it wait.


    Master farIn admired: "elder martial brother is wise. The reputation of Buddhism in Chang''an City has been destroyed. Although it was the fault of dacien temple, it came from Mohism. Now, with the help of Mohist master, it is God''s will to restore the reputation of Buddhism."


    Not to mention the Buddhist plan, but at this moment, Chang''an City has already burst into flames.


    "My Buddha is merciful and gives up his life for the world." in Chang''an City, a group of believers can''t help feeling proud. The wise decision made by the Buddhist family makes them spit out their previous bad luck.


    "Make up for the lost! Mo Sheng is really wise."


    "Bodhi has no tree............"


    "I would like to incarnate as a stone bridge..."


    However, in Chang''an City, in addition to a large number of believers, there are also a large number of loyal fans of Mohism. When Mohism competes with Buddhism, people can''t stop with classic allusions.


    They may not understand the Buddhist scriptures, but they know the Buddhism again through Mohist. This is the scene foreseen by master Huiyuan. He may not have used Mohism to accurately predict what will happen many years later, but his grasp of the people''s heart is perfect. For a moment, with the help of this debate, the reputation of Buddhism, which was originally at a low point, soared again.


    Ordinary people only care about the wonderful story. Believers praise the compassion of Buddhism, but in the ears of all scholars, it is no less than an earthquake.


    "The Buddhists have given in on their own initiative." people from all schools of thought were incredible. No one thought that the Buddhists had accepted the ultimatum system and directly abandoned the privilege of tax-free Temple fields.


    Although it is the independent behavior of Buddhism, it has a deep meaning among the hundreds of schools of thought, because Buddhism is the second school to give up the privilege of tax exemption after Mohism.


    "Now it''s my turn to choose Taoism." Li Chunfeng, the leader of Taoism, mumbled in the xuandu temple.


    Today, both Buddhism and Taoism belong to religion. Buddhism has taken the lead. Now it depends on whether Taoism has this determination.


    Coincidentally, among the Kong family, Kong Yingda is also faced with this choice. Among the existing hundreds of schools, the Mohist school voluntarily gave up because Merton enjoyed tax exemption for the Marquis, and the Buddhist school also gave up tax exemption for self-help, leaving Taoism and Confucianism with tax exemption privileges.


    The biggest beneficiary is the Kong family. The Kong family has lived in Qufu for generations, which is not only the symbol and glory of Qufu, but also the largest landlord of Qufu.


    As soon as the imperial examination was held, all scholars of Chinese scholars could be exempted from corvee and taxes on certain land properties, while more people could be exempted from corvee of dozens of people and land taxes on hundreds of mu of land. Therefore, there is a person in the middle. Relatives and friends attach their fields to the land one after another. They can get a lot of benefits without raising their hands. As the saying goes, the origin of poor scholars and rich people,


    In addition, there are some clan children, dignitaries and dignitaries, who are exempted from more taxes.


    Kong Desheng snorted coldly, "of course, Confucianism has the privilege of tax exemption, but there are few tax-free fields for scholars. Although there are many people, it is not worth mentioning how many people are hired in three years."


    The tax exemption amount occupied by Confucianism is naturally not as terrible as the three million monks and nuns of Buddhism, so Kong Desheng doesn''t think so at all.


    "But now both Mohists and Buddhists have given up tax exemption. If Taoists follow up, I''m afraid Confucianism will become a reality." Kong Yingda frowned.


    Kong Desheng disagreed and said, "the Buddhists have to cut off the gecko to survive in order to save themselves, but the Taoists don''t have this hidden danger. Do you think the Taoists will lose their way?"


    Kong Yingda wanted to persuade again, but finally opened her mouth and didn''t say anything.


    In the Mo mansion, almost everyone was absent-minded and looked at the gate from time to time. Until Merton''s carriage stopped at the door of the ink house, the whole ink house couldn''t help cheering.


    "Master is back!" Wu Meiniang shouted with surprise on her face, and all the people in the ink house welcomed her.


    "Young master, you''re back!" Mo Er hurriedly came forward, took the carriage and welcomed Merton in.


    Merton nodded and saw the eyes of all the people in the ink house staring at him in surprise. He couldn''t help looking at his clothes and wondered, "what''s the matter? Am I wearing the wrong clothes today?"


    Princess Changle winked at Aunt Xu. Aunt Xu immediately came forward and took a new dress and said, "the young master has been running around all day. The clothes have long been dirty. Aunt Xu just made a dress for the young master and changed it."


    Merton looked suspiciously at his new clothes he had just worn in the morning and said, "did it rise? Why didn''t I find it."


    "It''s really dirty!" suddenly everyone nodded without hesitation.


    Allowing no explanation, Xu aunt took off his coat, and looked at the way he looked at him. "Why is there a smell of sandalwood? It''s just too bad. The young man is a man. Only women want to decorate with some perfume."


    The princess of Changle asked the Mohist village to produce perfume. Naturally, they did not forget the mohfu. Most of the fragrances produced were given to the women of mohfu and Mohist.


    "Yes, aunt Xu''s hands happen to be. This dress is really beautiful, which is much better than the monotonous robes of monks." Princess Changle nodded in agreement.


    When Merton saw that the public was embarrassed, he had to change into new clothes in public, and the people were happy.


    "The young master hasn''t been back for a day. The monks must be thirsty and hungry! I''ve prepared delicious food, so I''ll wait for the young master to come back and taste it." Yu Er continued.


    When Merton thought about it carefully, he had been busy all day, his mouth was dry, there was no empress Chang sun, and Merton didn''t find a chance to rub his meal. He was already empty, so he nodded again and again.


    Merton and the Murdoch family returned to the villa. Sure enough, a table full of delicious food was ready.


    "Please enjoy it, young master!" the fish said respectfully.


    When Merton saw the delicious food, he immediately moved his fingers. At that moment, he ate it impolitely and ate it. However, the more he ate, the more something went wrong. Looking at the delicious food on the table, Merton didn''t understand: "Why are all meat dishes, and there are no vegetarian dishes!"


    Hearing that Merton asked for vegetables, the people suddenly changed their faces. Yu Er immediately panicked and said, "young master, don''t blame it. It''s a small negligence. I''ll fry it again."


    "Meat and vegetable matching is the right way for the banquet. How can you make such a stupid mistake?" Merton scolded.


    Princess Changle said to one side, "fish two took pains to make it. Come on, you''ll make do with some!"


    Merton immediately choked. He didn''t expect that the most picky Princess Changle would also help the second fish. At present, he was helpless and said, "well, it''s all meat dishes. Why don''t you even have saliva."


    "Such delicious food, what kind of water to drink, young master, if you are thirsty, Fubo is addicted to alcohol today. You and I haven''t sat together for a long time. Today, I happen to have a drink." Fubo took out a bottle of crystal to solve thousands of worries and filled it for Merton.


    Merton was naturally hard to refute fuber''s face. He was also very thirsty. He drank with fuber at the moment.


    Seeing Merton drinking, the people in the ink house were relieved. Soon, plates of vegetables were brought up, tea was served, and Merton got up with satisfaction.


    "Now that I''ve been tired all day, I won''t bother." when fuber saw that Merton had eaten and drank well, he asked all the people of the ink house to leave.


    It was not until the crowd left, leaving only Merton and Princess Changle alone, that Merton said his doubts.


    "Why is everyone strange today?" Merton Zhang Er couldn''t touch his head.


    Princess Changle looked at Merton with a white eye and said, "it''s not that you''re scary today. For a while, Bodhi will rest, for a while, for a while, Buddhism will let you be the sixth ancestor. Now the revival of Mohism is all about you. Do you say they''re nervous?"


    Merton immediately laughed and said, "so, aunt Xu asked me to pass on good-looking clothes. Yu Er asked me to eat meat dishes. Fu Bo drank me to test whether I want to become a monk or not?"


    "Now it is said that you have a profound Dharma in Chang''an city. You don''t have to say if you lose the argument. It''s even in the secret room of the meditation room. Even master Huiyuan and master Falin are willing to bow down. Who knows if you will become a monk at the moment!" Princess Changle said with her mouth. Since Merton drinks and eats meat, she also relieved herself and couldn''t help complaining.


    Merton was both laughing and crying. He didn''t expect to be misunderstood by the world when he discussed with Huiyuan and farIn in the secret room. However, the topic in the secret room is confidential, and he can''t argue now.


    At that moment, he saw the expression of Princess Changle''s complaint, which was very cute. He couldn''t help teasing. At that moment, he said with a smile: "you think eating meat and drinking will break the precepts, and it''s unstable. Wine and meat pass through the intestines. The Buddha will stay in his heart. As long as there is a Buddha in his heart, there is the West sky everywhere."


    "Ah!" Princess Changle immediately opened her mouth and stayed there, looking at Merton in disbelief.


    Merton said with a sly smile, "in fact, there is the most direct way to prove whether a person wants to become a monk."


    "What method?" Princess Changle said urgently.


    "Quit color!" Merton lowered his head and whispered in Princess Changle''s ear with the smell of wine.


    "Ah!" Princess Changle suddenly blushed. She naturally knew what Merton meant, but obediently snuggled in Merton''s arms, let Merton a princess hold her, picked her up, went up the steps and walked into the upstairs bedroom.

 Chapter 809

    "The spring night is bitter and short, and the day rises high. From then on, my husband doesn''t go early."


    The next day, Merton, immersed in the gentle countryside, really fulfilled his promised poem. His task has been completed. Naturally, he did not hesitate to be absent from today''s morning.


    In the Tai Chi hall, the early Dynasty in which Mo Jiazi was absent was the focus of attention. Among the courtiers, the master Huiyuan with a solemn monk''s robe was particularly conspicuous.


    "Tell your majesty that the Buddhists have made mistakes again and again, but they are stubborn. It all depends on your Majesty''s guidance. The Buddhists repent. In particular, they save themselves, and please your Majesty''s approval." master Huiyuan folded his hands and presented a memorial.


    Suddenly, the ministers couldn''t help but be in an uproar. Before that, they naturally got the content of the debate between Mohist and Buddhist scriptures, but they were still surprised to see the memorial of self-help in Buddhism.


    You know, Buddhism has been introduced into China for 600 years. Everyone knows the hidden dangers of Buddhism. Even though Buddhism has suffered two Dharma disasters, it is still unwilling to give up its own interests. It was persuaded by Mohist Zi''s remarks.


    Li Shimin could not help nodding when he saw the contents of the memorial. The memorial of self-help in Buddhism was the same as that reported by Merton yesterday.


    "The Buddhists have done a great deal of good deeds by sacrificing their lives for the country. Secondly, they have made their own theories perfect. Since then, the Buddhist dharma has soared, which is a double blessing!" Li Shimin nodded and praised. Now the Buddhists have taken the initiative to save themselves from the curse of ingratitude, and solved the internal problems for the Tang Dynasty. This is killing two birds with one stone.


    Master Huiyuan bowed and said, "this is the stupidity of Buddhism. I only care about my small family and give up everyone. Today I repent. There is a country before a family. There is no skin. How can Mao attach it? My Tang Dynasty will last forever, and my Buddhism will also last forever. The Tang Dynasty will prosper, and my Buddhism will also last forever."


    "Well, it''s a blessing for the world that the Buddhist family has such awareness. If the world is as aware as the master, why don''t we worry about the Tang Dynasty?" said Li Shimin Longyan Dayue. As an emperor, he naturally won''t refuse the increase of land tax.


    "Master, wise!" all the ministers echoed. All officials naturally congratulate everyone who puts on airs.


    The issue of Buddhism has been debated in the court for too long. Now it ends with the self-help of Buddhism, which can be regarded as an explanation to all parties. For the party that killed the Buddha, the Buddhism has been limited, no longer endangers the Tang Dynasty, and naturally no longer investigated; For those who support Buddhism, although Buddhism is limited, it has solved the hidden dangers. It can be said that it also has many benefits. It can be said that everyone is happy.


    Master Huiyuan turned around and said solemnly like Fu Yi: "benefactor Fu, you are polite. In fact, what happened in those years was that my Buddhist family made mistakes first. The Buddhist family helped all living beings, but took the initiative to fail to do so. It was my Buddhist fault to sit and watch benefactor Fu fall into danger."


    Fu Yi couldn''t help but panic and quickly saluted: "master, I''m ashamed of Fu. Fu didn''t care about what happened that year. I''m also right about things and people to Buddhism. I''m wholehearted to consider the world. If I''m rude to Buddhism, please forgive me."


    Master Huiyuan laughed and said, "if benefactor Fu had not spoken frankly about the mistakes of Buddhism many times, the Buddhist family would have repented. Loyal words go against the ear and are conducive to action. The Buddhist family would also be grateful to Lord Fu?"


    Fu Yi felt ashamed when he saw it, and Hao Ran said, "master, I admire you for your wisdom."


    In fact, Fu Yi has been biting the Buddhist family all the time. Is it really just for the country and the imperial court? I''m afraid it doesn''t matter. Now that he sees that the Buddhist family has solved the hidden danger, master Huiyuan also apologized to him, and his original obsession immediately dissipated.


    If Merton once again, he must sigh again that master Huiyuan''s human attack is powerful. It''s almost invisible.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin laughed and said, "since your gratitude and resentment are over, it''s a blessing for the chaotang. I think I was in danger and saved by the Shaolin staff monk. I still appreciate the kindness of Shaolin."


    Master Huiyuan quickly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty is kind. It''s an honor for Shaolin to meet your majesty. And no matter ordinary people or the real dragon, as long as Shaolin meets him, he will help and never return."


    I''m kidding. Today, the Buddhist family is saved by Shaolin''s kindness to Li Shimin. If Li Shimin returns the kindness, it''s good.


    Li Shimin made a gesture and pondered: "I know that the master is an eminent monk, and Shaolin is also a Buddhist holy land. Naturally, I don''t like worldly things to tarnish the reputation of Buddhism. I think it''s the most appropriate gift."


    "Gift!" the people in the hall were surprised and couldn''t help looking forward to it.


    Li Shimin waved, and suddenly pound held a long scroll and opened it quietly. Suddenly, the three big characters of Shaolin Temple appeared on the paper.


    "Inscription?" all the ministers couldn''t help but think of the inscription Li Shimin gave to Mojia village. Such a move can be said to be consistent.


    Li Shimin strode forward, picked up the brush, wrote down his name in the lower right corner, and covered it with a jade seal.


    "Shaolin Temple!"


    "Your Majesty''s autograph!"


    "And the seal of the jade seal."


    All officials can''t help but talk about it. Before, Li Shimin inscribed that Mojia village was the first village in the world, which made Mojia village famous, and its value is almost incalculable. Now, Li Shimin personally inscribed the name of Shaolin Temple and printed it with a jade seal. Shaolin will certainly benefit a lot in the future.


    "Thank you for your kindness, Shaolin. I''m ashamed of it." master Huiyuan said gratefully.


    He has been proficient in human offensives all his life, but now he has to take over Li Shimin''s human offensives.


    Moreover, he naturally knows the weight of these three words, which can be said to be the Amulet of Shaolin Temple. Even if there is a third Buddhist dharma difficulty, as long as these three words are there, it will be enough to protect Shaolin.


    So far, the Buddhist storm has come to an end safely from the storm all over the city. The confrontation can be said to be everywhere. However, no one can forget that there is a key figure in it, that is, the Mexican family who was not present.


    "If you have something to start, leave the court!" pound shouted when he saw that the hour was almost over.


    "I have something to start!" when all the officials were ready to leave the dynasty, the Taishi ordered Li Chunfeng to suddenly step out.


    "Taishi order!" the officials were stunned. He knew that Taoism and Buddhism wanted to be at odds, and the two sides competed fiercely for believers. Now Li Chunfeng suddenly appeared, which made everyone suspicious.


    "Accurate playing!" Li Shimin thought that Taoism was a little unhappy, but it didn''t show up.


    Li Chunfeng didn''t seem to see the strange eyes of the people, but bowed down and said, "Buddhism and Taoism belong to the same religion. Today, I can''t help feeling ashamed to see the turning point of Buddhism''s self-help."


    Everyone was stunned and looked at Li Chunfeng. They thought Li Chunfeng was an active provocation. It seems that the form is wrong!


    "What does Li Aiqing mean?" Li Shimin said suspiciously.


    Li Chunfeng said proudly, "Weichen decided that Taoism would also give up the privilege of tax exemption, and requested the implementation of the ultimatum system."


    As soon as Li Chunfeng''s voice fell, all the officials were in an uproar. No one thought that Taoism would follow the Buddhist self-help method and also take the initiative to give up the tax-free privilege.


    What''s the matter? Did everyone become selfless overnight.


    Li Chunfeng can''t help showing a trace of satisfaction. Taoism seems to give up the tax-free privilege, but it doesn''t lose. First, there are not many land properties under the name of Taoism, even if the tax payment is poor. Second, the Buddhist ultimatum system has a quota of 500000. This number is a limit for Buddhism, but it''s a limit for quiet Taoism.


    What Taoists give up is only a small profit, but what they get is equivalent to 500000 degrees of Buddhism. They can also please the imperial court, so that Taoists will not lag behind Buddhism.


    The ministers thought a little and immediately knew the plans of Taoism. However, the ministers couldn''t help being thrilled. In this way, the Mohists, Buddhists and Taoists had given up the tax-free privilege, which suddenly pushed the Confucianism to an extremely embarrassing situation.


    Among the ministers, Kong Yingda couldn''t help sighing. He knew it would be so. He couldn''t help looking around at all the ministers. He saw that all the ministers subconsciously avoided his eyes and hung their heads decadent.


    After waiting for a moment, Li Shimin saw that the hall was silent. Then he laughed and said, "Taoism is so loyal to the king for the country. How can I live up to the hardships of Taoism."


    When the ministers heard Li Shimin''s laughter, the dignitaries who were very familiar with his character understood that his heart must have been extremely unhappy. Thinking of the originator of all this, they couldn''t help gnashing their teeth and saying:


    "Mojiazi!"


    The first one to give up the tax exemption is mojiazi. It is also mojiazi to persuade the Buddhists to give up the tax exemption. In this way, it is also mojiazi who can induce the Taoists to give up the tax exemption. In the end, it is natural for him to pit the Confucianism.

 Chapter 810

    The news that Buddhists took the initiative to save themselves, but the big news was that Mohist and Confucian journals learned yesterday that they naturally worked overtime all night to print. However, just after the early Dynasty, another heavy news came, and Taoism also decided to give up its privileges and treat them the same as Buddhists.


    As a last resort, the two publications naturally added special issues again, which simply spoiled Mo San and others.


    "A new issue of Ink magazine has been published,"


    "Buddhism saves itself and Taoism reforms."


    "Buddhism and Taoism are determined to forge ahead, and their theories have reached perfection."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Since Buddhists and Taoists have sacrificed their own interests, ink magazine will not be stingy with praise to promote the integrity of the two families.


    Confucian journals naturally reported the same thing, but both of them deliberately avoided Confucianism. For a while, the reputation of Buddhism and Taoism soared in Chang''an city.


    Believers in Taoist temples and temples are like weaving. Many wealthy believers have left a lot of incense money.


    Seeing the surge of believers in their temples and the temples in Chang''an City, the monks who were originally dissatisfied with the Buddhist self-help plan gradually dissipated their resentment.


    Indeed, as master Huiyuan said, the Buddhist family has given up the tax exemption privilege and can still survive and develop, which has little impact. In contrast, the incense money is the big head. The Buddhist family''s decision can be said to be extremely correct.


    And when the imperial court and the Buddhist family tear their faces, at that time, the Buddhist family may suffer even more heavy losses.


    In contrast, Taoism has less losses and greater benefits. It can be said that it has made a cost-effective exchange.


    There was a dead silence in the Confucius house. I can''t believe that Taoism should do so.


    "I can''t believe it. Taoism has taken a good step." Kong Desheng sighed.


    "That''s my Kong family?" Kong huisuo frowned.


    Kong Desheng sneered: "What about the Confucius family? Do you think Confucianism can still be controlled by my Confucius family? As long as I dare to write a letter and give up the privilege of recruiting scholars, I''m afraid my Confucius family will be abandoned by Confucian scholars all over the world immediately. The Mohists have ink skills, making money every day, Buddhism and Taoism have incense money, sitting on the ground and collecting money. What do I Confucianism have? If I give up exemption from land taxes, can''t we starve to death!"


    "Isn''t Confucianism the target of public criticism?" Kong huisuo worried.


    Kong Desheng waved his hand carelessly and said, "how can it become a target of public criticism? Isn''t there a doctor?"


    "Doctor?" Kong huisuo said puzzled.


    Kong Desheng nodded and said, "as far as I know, although the Mohist hospital is connected with the Mohist school, it has long been independent. It has not paid taxes at all. If there are doctors, Confucianism is naturally unimpeded."


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help but stay. The reason why doctors didn''t pay taxes was because Mo hospital was a new thing, that is, it didn''t belong to land tax or commercial tax. There were no regulations and standards for collection. In addition, Sun Simiao was the imperial doctor of empress Chang''an. Naturally, the household department wouldn''t go to the trouble of doctors without knowing the truth.


    "The doctor is useless. Just now, the doctor Sun Simiao has entered the palace and asked to give up the doctor''s duty-free privilege." Kong Yingda strode into the Confucius house and gasped.


    Kong Desheng almost wanted to scold. This was a contest between Buddhism and Taoism. How could doctors get involved.


    Moreover, it is natural for doctors to give up the duty-free privilege. After all, hospitals are the most non bargaining place in the world. They will never bargain about the price and charge. Even if they pay the tax, they can add it back to the drug price.


    "Your Majesty agreed," Kong huisuo asked hurriedly.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "that''s not true. Your majesty encouraged the doctors that they have just revived and that it is time to continue their development. It is not too late to discuss this matter when the doctors are all over the Tang Dynasty."


    "Hoo!" Kong Desheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "that''s good!"


    If doctors also give up tax exemption, I''m afraid Confucianism should carefully consider this matter. In that case, Confucianism can delay for a few more years.


    There was a lot of discussion in Chang''an city. The news about the hundreds of schools of thought can be said one after another. People couldn''t help but lament how fierce the dispute among the hundreds of schools was.


    On the edge of Qujiang River, Li Yun proudly looked at the arch bridge to be closed. Even if the bridge is still to be completed, he has left a great reputation in the bridge industry of Chang''an city.


    With the support of Wanguan money from Mojia village, the materials he used were superior. In addition, the skilled craftsmen hired at a high price assisted the advanced machinery in Mojia village. Not only the progress increased greatly, but also the quality was excellent, which was praised by all walks of life in Chang''an.


    "Young master, this is today''s Ink magazine!" the old servant waited for Li Yun to inspect the construction period, and immediately presented today''s Ink magazine.


    After he came to Chang''an City, what he appreciated most was Ink magazine. He could keep the news all night without leaving home, which opened his eyes.


    Even in Chang''an City, there is a nursery rhyme that tells ink people not to go out, they will know what the world hears, which makes him quite sigh.


    Although there are Confucian journals in Chang''an City, compared with the news brought back by the Mohist children all over the Tang Dynasty, the news of Confucian journals can be said to be much behind.


    In addition, although Li Yun is not satisfied with Mohism, he is even more unhappy with Confucianism. In contrast, he naturally chooses Mohist journals.


    "Buddhist self-help, Taoist reform!"


    Li Yun solemnly looked at the news on today''s front page and couldn''t help feeling touched. All along, he has been opposed to the reform of Mohist school. He believes that Mohist school has lost the political concept of universal love and non aggression of Mohist saint, and it is putting the cart before the horse to devote himself to the study of Mohist technology.


    But now seeing the reform of Buddhism and Taoism, I can''t help but feel touched. Even Buddhism and Taoism can break their wrists and eliminate their own shortcomings. In contrast, what Mohist Zi did doesn''t seem so difficult for him to accept.


    In addition, the Mohist village, which specializes in ink technology, is particularly prosperous, while those who adhere to the concept of Mohist sage can only hide and be unknown. In contrast, they stand high and make judgments.


    Not to mention the comparison between Mojia village and Xiangfu family, comparing him with mojiazi made him despair. After he cracked the reward offered by mojiazi, he thought his intelligence was not inferior to that of mojiazi, and thought he could compete with mojiazi.


    However, when he came to Chang''an City in person, he found out how amazing and talented the Mo family was. He manipulated among all the schools of thought. He fought alone with all the monks of the Buddhist family and returned home with complete victory,


    Fortunately, he was also proud of the arch bridge in front of him. Li Yun turned his head and looked at several piers faintly visible in the distance.


    "It seems that I will win this competition first." Li Yun murmured.


    Now, the bridge deck of his arch bridge is about to close, and only a few piers have been built in Mojia village. He doesn''t believe that such a wide gap can turn mojiazi over.


    However, at this time, there was an uproar on both sides of the Qujiang River, and almost everyone ran to the Qujiang bridge built in Mojia village.


    "What''s the matter," said the old servant in surprise.


    "I don''t know. Let''s find out for ourselves!" Li Yun said with a gloomy face. The rumors about Mohism in Chang''an City emerged in my heart.


    "As soon as the Mohist school has a moth, that''s the moment when he will fight back."


    This law has been confirmed countless times. Li Yun hurried to Qujiang bridge. There was indeed a cloud in his heart that could not disperse.

 Chapter 811

    Sure enough, Li Yun was stunned by the scene in front of him when he squeezed away the crowd and came to the opposite side of the Qujiang bridge built in Mojia village.


    On the South Bank of Qujiang bridge, huge steel monsters stood quietly, which was even more shocking than the siege weapons displayed in the military parade.


    "What is this?" the old servant looked at the iron beast in front of him in disbelief.


    "It is said to be the latest ink technique of Mohism."


    "Well, it seems that it was specially built for bridge repair."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Among the crowd, the people scrambled for the news they heard.


    "Lao Tzu always looked down on the Mohist school before. Today I know how powerful the Mohist School''s Mohist skills are."


    Even Li Yun was shocked by it. It can be imagined how much impact it had on ordinary people. Many people who were originally dissatisfied with Mohism also turned to powder one after another.


    Yes, this is the bridge erecting machine specially imitated by the Mohist School in order to build Qujiang bridge. Because the technology has just been developed, many processes are not perfect. The bridge erecting machine produced by the Mohist school is larger than that of later generations, adding three points to the shock.


    "It''s too big!" almost everyone looked at the iron beast in front of them.


    The shock in Li Yun''s heart was even more unspeakable. He never thought that the Mohist ink technology he had never faced up to could achieve such a shocking effect, and his choice of Mohist village was loosened.


    "You see, mojiazi is coming too!" among the crowd, people with sharp eyes saw the South Bank of Qujiang bridge, and the figure of mojiazi appeared next to the bridge erecting machine.


    Li Yun was shocked and looked up. Sure enough, he saw the figure of Mohist. He was accompanied by several people. It seemed that there was another kind old monk.


    Li Yun was right. Merton was accompanied by Li Shimin and the Buddhist master Huiyuan.


    "This is the bridge erecting machine newly developed by the Mohists. With this equipment, the bridge deck of Qujiang bridge can be erected in one day." Merton proudly introduced it to them.


    The Mohist School developed such heavy machinery. It was the time to publicize the Mohist ink technology. Naturally, Merton would not miss this opportunity. Just recently, he was ordered to contact master Huiyuan and invited them to visit.


    "The Mohist ink technique really deserves its reputation. I''m really an eye opener." master Huiyuan was shocked when he looked at the huge steel muscles and bones of the bridge erecting machine.


    "The bridge deck was paved in one day. As far as I know, the descendants of Li Chun have spent more than one month building the bridge deck alone, which has not been closed yet." Li Shimin was a little incredible.


    You know, it is only with the support of sufficient money and the ink technology of Mohism that Li Yun has such a fast speed. If he follows the ordinary process, I''m afraid he won''t be able to complete the existing progress in another two months.


    Rao is so. He has shocked the speed of all circles in Chang''an, and what Mohist Zi said is even more unreliable. He even wants to put the bridge on one day.


    Merton smiled proudly and was about to sell it. Thinking of his previous experience, he quickly changed his mouth and said, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. The reason why Weichen is so sure is that the things needed for the bridge have been cast in advance. Now he only needs the bridge erecting machine to put them on."


    Merton waved his hand and saw a curtain fall on the roadside, and several huge reinforced concrete cast bridge beams appeared in front of the people.


    These bridges are huge, covered with gray solidified cement, and their tentacles are cold. In the exposed part of the cement, the steel bars with thick fingers are exposed, just like the vigorous roots of old trees, giving people an unparalleled sense of security.


    Li Shimin looked at the cast beams and the huge bridge erecting machine. Only then did he believe that mojiazi did not exaggerate. He really only needed to put the beams on the piers with the bridge erecting machine.


    However, looking at the two equally huge and incomparable giants, Li Shimin felt incredible. I''m afraid this beam piece alone is no less than tens of thousands of kilograms. I''m afraid ordinary people can''t do it even if they go up. Moreover, the Mexican family even used one to build a large machine, which can be completed in one day.


    art beats nature!, No, it can''t be said to be a coincidence. It can''t be said to be a coincidence to lift such a heavy beam. However, Li Shimin feels that he is poor in words and can''t describe this amazing power at all.


    "The heavy weapon of the country!"


    After a long time, Li Shimin spit out the shock in his heart.


    Master Huiyuan was even more shocked. No wonder he strongly invited Mohist Zi to succeed the sixth ancestor. He refused without hesitation because Mohist school had mastered the power close to God.


    Among the various schools of thought, Taoism and Buddhism are all advocating the existence of God. Although yin-yang schools also believe in ghosts and gods, they do not appear in the world.


    However, all the powers of ghosts and gods have never been discovered, but the Mohist school can use ink technology to make such a powerful weapon, which can be said to be the closest power to God in the world. How can it not shock the Buddhist school.


    "Master, can we start building bridges?" unexpectedly, a young voice came from the huge bridge erecting machine.


    When they looked up, they saw a beautiful and lovely little girl bowing down and asking.


    "Let''s start!" Merton looked at it and nodded.


    People can''t help but stay where they can call Merton a teacher. I''m afraid this little girl can only be the legendary first disciple of the Mohist school, Wu Meiniang.


    With such huge machinery and tens of thousands of kilograms of heavy objects, the mojiazi was handed over to a 10-year-old girl to command. The contrast has an unparalleled impact on everyone.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He was busy with Buddhism recently, but he didn''t think that the people in Mojia village really loved Wu Meiniang. When Wu Meiniang saw such a huge bridge erecting machine, she immediately liked the huge toy and climbed up to the position of the command room. It happened that the bridge erecting machine was a new thing, and the children of Mojia wouldn''t, On the contrary, Wu Meiniang was careful and courageous. Instead, she commanded like an arm envoy. In this way, Wu Meiniang became the only person to command the bridge erecting machine.


    Naturally, the bridge erecting machine in this era is not driven by the machinery of later generations. All links need manual operation. Under the command of Wu Meiniang, the bridge erecting machine extends slowly and stands firmly on the already built pier.


    Then the huge boom like two big pliers lifted a huge beam and moved slowly and smoothly between the two piers.


    "Let go!"


    When the beam piece slowly moved between the two piers, with Wu Meiniang''s order, the beam piece slowly fell and stably stood between the two piers.


    "Wow!"


    Everyone on both sides of the Strait involuntarily exclaimed that this time they can be said to be an eye opener.


    "Eh, isn''t it? Why is the bridge deck flat? Isn''t it the arch bridge built by mojiazi?" a common people suddenly realized that it was wrong and said in surprise.


    "It''s really not an arch bridge, but..." a common people seemed to have seen such a bridge there, but they couldn''t remember it. They couldn''t help frowning and thinking about the cableway.


    "Beam bridge!" Li Yun on the north bank stared at the flat bridge deck and said word by word.

 Chapter 812

    "Beam bridge!"


    Li Shimin looked puzzled at the flat bridge deck in front of him. In order to facilitate bridge repair in this era, almost all arch bridges were used. Using the arch surface tension to solve the problem of load-bearing can be said to be a miracle in the history of bridge architecture.


    Moreover, the arch bridge has beautiful shape and round curve, which is conducive to drainage. Moreover, the arched bridge deck is more convenient for sailing and has the charm of small bridge and flowing water, which is loved by the ancients.


    The beam bridge is not absent. Most of them are in many streams. Some pedestrians are inconvenient to travel. Instead, they directly use several huge timber to cross both banks of the stream for pedestrians to pass. Its principle is like the beam on the roof when building a house, so it is called beam bridge.


    No one thought that the beam bridge, which is the simplest and not valued at all, has given another meaning with steel and cement in the hands of mojiazi.


    The huge piers replaced the mounds on both sides, and the steel like beams replaced the light wood. The beam bridge built of reinforced concrete in front of us is simply an expanded version of the common beam bridge. There is no impression of the beam bridge being simple and dangerous, but has a sense of grandeur.


    "Master Mo is really extraordinary. He can turn corruption into magic. I can''t help but broaden my horizons." master Huiyuan exclaimed.


    "Turning corruption into magic? Is it true that the master is too fond of this boy?" Li Shimin didn''t understand.


    Master Huiyuan joined hands and said, "although the beam bridge is ordinary, it has a great advantage, that is, it is flat. Both cars and horses can pass quickly without much effort. It is the blessing of the people."


    Merton nodded: "The master really has a unique vision. When he was ordered to build the Qujiang bridge, he already found that this place is an important traffic road. There are many vehicles passing through on weekdays. If an arch bridge is built, it will be difficult for cars and horses to pass through, so he thought of the method of beam bridge. As long as the Qujiang bridge is built and cars and horses walk here without stopping, they can pass quickly and conveniently."


    In fact, the arch bridge is not impassable. However, after the emergence of the four-wheel carriage, the load capacity of the carriage suddenly increased, and the slope of the arch bridge became a huge obstacle, so the advantage of the beam bridge immediately increased.


    Li Shimin looked at the main roads on both sides of the Strait. Suddenly, he nodded again and again.


    "People''s daily use is the way!" master Huiyuan couldn''t help but look at the idea of Mohism, and he couldn''t help but realize that Mohism was indeed a combination of knowledge and practice.


    "However, I still want to apologize to your majesty. Although Liangqiao has advantages, it is not conducive to sailing. I''m afraid I can''t get through the ship in the rainy season in summer." Merton regretted.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "there is nothing perfect about the world. Pleasure boats and boats are just leisure things, and the passage of the people is the top priority."


    In contrast, he paid more attention to the practical value of the beam bridge. All along, no one thought that the beam bridge was conducive to traffic, but there was no suitable material to support the bridge deck, so he chose the arch bridge, and the Qujiang bridge built by Merton perfectly solved this problem and conquered a major problem in the history of the bridge.


    Moreover, he saw the piers in the river and the other half of the unpaved bridge deck, and thought of the plan of the Yellow River bridge that mojiazi had imagined for him.


    If we set up piers in the Yellow River and build bridges across the north and South with beams, the river under the bridge will be surging and the horses on the bridge will flow continuously, and the traffic in the north will never be blocked again.


    Although the beam bridge in front of him only crossed the Qujiang River, it was the dawn of the Tang Dynasty''s conquest of the world''s rivers. At the thought that the world''s rivers would be built with such beam bridges, and the world''s cars and horses could pass through the world without stopping, Li Shimin was suddenly proud.


    "This time, you did a good job!" Li Shimin could not help nodding and praising. He glanced at Merton with satisfaction. He had to say that the boy was always making trouble, but he was still very beautiful.


    Master Huiyuan on the other side sighed in his heart, and he couldn''t help feeling a little more about the idea of all schools of thought. Compared with all schools of thought dedicated to the country and the people, Buddhism did too little.


    Merton and Li Shimin couldn''t help but look at each other vaguely. Today, they warmly invited master Huiyuan to visit the bridge repair of Qujiang bridge. It is to let the Buddhists see the efforts of all schools of thought and further dispel the grievances of Buddhists. After all, the Buddhists did make concessions. After returning, let master Huiyuan explain.


    Master Huiyuan is the originator of the human offensive. How can he not know the plans of Li Shimin and Merton? However, Rao is so. Seeing the contribution of Mohism to the world, I''m afraid he can resist any complaints from the Buddhism.


    "Liang Qiao! Mozi is really cunning! He doesn''t play cards according to common sense. He uses Liang Qiao to compete with the young master. He can''t win." Among the crowd, the old servant said angrily. When they built the bridge together, everyone thought that mojiazi built an arch bridge. Even if mojiazi built a pier in the middle of the river, they just thought that mojiazi used two connected arch bridges to reduce the difficulty of building the bridge in order to take advantage of speculation.


    However, today, mojiazi finally revealed his ultimate killer, the bridge erecting machine like an iron beast, the beam bridge made of steel muscles and iron bones, and the amazing general bridge erecting speed, which once again reversed the competition.


    "No, this is not related to the type of bridge. Beam bridge is also a bridge, just as floating bridge is also a bridge and iron cable bridge is also a bridge. As long as it can let people pass, it is a good bridge." Li Yun said bitterly.


    When he first saw the beam bridge, he was keenly aware of the advantages of the beam bridge. As a descendant of Li Chun, he has always been proud. What he has always wanted to build is a magnificent arch bridge like the Zhaozhou Bridge built by his father. As for the beam bridge, which is no longer an ordinary bridge, he hasn''t even seen it in front of his eyes.


    Now Mohist Zi has really taught him a lesson. There are no useless bridges, only useless craftsmen. After Mohist Zi enlarges the beam bridge, he has an unparalleled traffic advantage over the arch bridge.


    Even he was acutely aware of why mojiazi had to spend a lot of effort to build piers in the Qujiang River. As long as Mojia village controlled the technology of building piers in the river and had this bridge erecting machine, Mojia village would conquer the rivers in the world.


    What makes Li Yun even more disheartened is that he is already complacent when he focuses on rivers such as Qujiang, while mojiazi has already focused on amazing projects such as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.


    "I''m not as good as Mohists!" Li Yun sighed.


    The old servant on one side could not help frowning. He looked anxiously at the young master who was originally in high spirits gradually decadent. Suddenly, he had an idea and said, "don''t worry, young master, you haven''t lost yet!"


    Li Yun looked up indifferently and said, "even ordinary people can see that there are too many girder bridges that have won over arch bridges. The Mexican family has won this game."


    "No!" the old servant said firmly, "if you want to prove the good or bad of a bridge, in addition to the style, there is another factor, that is, load-bearing."


    "Bearing!" Li Yun couldn''t help but be stunned. His eyes brightened slowly. Yes, the reason why the arch bridge can carry forward in this era is that the arch bridge has a strong bearing capacity by using the principle of surface tension.


    This is something Liang Qiao does not have. If the beam bridge built by Mohist Zi is just a show, he still has a chance to win.


    "Mojiazi, I hope you don''t let me down." Li Yun rekindled his fighting spirit and said.


    In his heart, he hopes to win this victory and witness the rise of a new bridge.

 Chapter 813

    After the continuous installation of two huge beams, half of the bridge deck of Qujiang bridge had been built, and the bridge erecting machine needed to be readjusted. Wu Meiniang was idle on it, so she got down from the bridge erecting machine with great interest.


    At this time, Wu Meiniang had the elegance of the former Duke and second daughter. Her manners were extremely vigorous and completely dressed up as a wild girl.


    People have long heard of the unique method of teaching disciples of the Mohist school, and they have long been surprised.


    "Master, I''m not ashamed of master!" Wu Meiniang walked proudly.


    "This time, you did a good job! But next time, don''t be reckless. Such a large machine can''t be controlled by your age." Merton scolded.


    Wu Meiniang suddenly raised her small face and said proudly, "master, I don''t think it''s right."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Wu Meiniang in surprise. In this era of teacher dignity, no other disciples dare to refute the master, while the style of Mohist school seems different. Mohist school is a thorn in the Imperial College. Unexpectedly, it''s not good to accept an apprentice.


    Merton was very angry and said with a smile, "then tell me, what the teacher said is inappropriate."


    Wu Meiniang raised her small face and said stubbornly, "the disciple believes that this machine is not dangerous. On the contrary, these cold machines are the safest and most reliable in the world. As long as we use one part of the force, the machines will do one part of the work. As long as we design the machines, these machines will work according to the established process, never make mistakes and never betray."


    Morton was stunned. He didn''t expect Wu Meiniang''s understanding of machinery had reached such an awareness.


    "Therefore, machinery has nothing to do with age. One day, my Mohist school can make machinery that can be worked with a little effort, and even young children can easily control it." Wu Meiniang said proudly.


    Master Huiyuan couldn''t help looking at Wu Meiniang with envy. The mojiazi was amazing enough, but he didn''t expect that his apprentice was equally extraordinary. Then he joined hands and said, "Amitabha, benefactor Wu is really intelligent and has extraordinary wisdom."


    When Wu Meiniang heard master Huiyuan''s praise, a trace of horror flashed across her proud face. She immediately cried, "no! I don''t want Huigen. I don''t want to shave my head and be a nun. Master, can you not become a monk and become the sixth ancestor of Buddhism?"


    "Becoming a monk?"


    "Be the sixth ancestor of Buddhism?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Li Shimin suddenly looked incredible. His eyes kept changing back and forth between Merton and master Huiyuan. He had heard the Bodhi rest of the Mohist school. He was surprised. At the same time, he instinctively realized that something was wrong. Now he finally knows why it was wrong.


    If Mozi really realized that he was a Buddhist monk, what about his baby daughter? At present, he couldn''t help staring at Morton with a bad face.


    Merton immediately looked embarrassed and said, "I have a good wife and bear the important task of reviving the Mohist school. How can I become a monk? Besides, didn''t I drink and eat meat yesterday?"


    Li Shimin''s face relaxed. In this way, it is really unlikely. It can be said that the Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist knowledge of Mozi still stuck in his throat.


    Wu Meiniang was still wronged and said, "so what about drinking and eating meat. Besides, the master also said that wine and meat have passed through the intestines. Does the Buddha keep it in his heart?"


    "Wine and meat pass through the intestines, leaving the Buddha in his heart!"


    Master Huiyuan''s calm face was frozen when ponton was there. Just yesterday, he was upset about Mozi''s Dharma understanding. He thought he was the only candidate for the sixth ancestor of Buddhism and Zen. He regretted that Mozi was not a child of Buddhism,


    However, now he has no such regret. Instead, he is very lucky. Fortunately, Mozi is not a Buddhist child. If he becomes the sixth ancestor of Buddhism and takes the lead in advocating that wine and meat pass through the intestines, the Buddha will stay in his heart, and the Buddhism will be in disorder immediately.


    Merton immediately looked embarrassed. He didn''t expect that his drunken nonsense would be betrayed by Wu Meiniang at this time.


    incorrect!


    When he said this, only princess Changle knew how it came from Wu Meiniang.


    In an instant, Merton looked at Wu Meiniang, looked at Li Shimin and master Huiyuan, and suddenly felt that an invisible black hand was manipulating everything behind the scenes.


    "Changle!" Merton suddenly realized.


    He did not expect that Princess Changle would directly block his way back in order to prevent him from going astray. This time, not only Li Shimin''s eyes were full of warning, but even master Huiyuan immediately avoided him like snakes and scorpions.


    "Misunderstandings, all misunderstandings!" Merton glared at Wu Meiniang and hurriedly ran to Li Shimin and master Huiyuan to make amends.


    Seeing that her task had been completed, Wu Meiniang quickly climbed onto the bridge crane and hid, leaving Merton suffering below.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Welcome to your majesty!"


    "Master Huiyuan, go slowly!"


    Merton wiped his cold sweat, said good or bad, and repeatedly guaranteed that he would be loyal to the Mohist school, carry forward the Mohist school, and never become a monk, which dispelled the anger of the two and sent them away.


    "Where''s Wu Meiniang?" when Merton returned to the construction site, he asked angrily.


    A Mohist boy bowed and said, "go back, young master. The eldest martial sister is laying a bridge in Qujiang. She left a message just now and said that if the young master looks for her, let the young master wait a moment."


    The title of "eldest martial sister" was shot by Wu Meiniang. She was the first disciple of Merton. First of all, the righteousness had been determined. Refining silver mirrors can be said to become famous in World War I. However, when she commanded the bridge erecting machine like an iron beast alone today, no one in the whole Mohist School questioned her identity.


    Merton didn''t know. I''m afraid the moment in Wu Meiniang''s mouth was a long time. It''s estimated that she may not even see a figure.


    At that moment, he said with hate: "tell her when you wait for her to come down and let her wait for punishment!"


    Merton felt it was necessary to let Wu Meiniang know what was the dignity of the teacher, otherwise she would not know how to pit herself next time!


    After Merton said something cruel, he turned and left.


    After seeing Merton leave, Wu Meiniang quietly climbed down from the bridge erecting machine. After hearing the message from the children of the Mohists, she couldn''t help but proudly shook the horsetail behind her head and said, "if you are punished, you will be punished. That''s better than shaving your head. How beautiful the horsetail is. Even if I am killed, I don''t want to be a nun."


    She didn''t know that if Merton hadn''t changed her fate, she might still be unable to escape the fate of becoming a monk in the sentiment temple.


    Of course, she didn''t have this worry at this time. What she thought was whether she would be a nun as a disciple if Merton really became a monk. In order to keep her long hair, she naturally stood on the side of Shiniang without hesitation.

 Chapter 814

    "Xianggong, please have tea!"


    Merton angrily sat on a chair beside her, and the princess Changle carefully offered tea and apologized.


    "Yes!"


    Merton took the tea with an expressionless face and drank it. Suddenly his lips and teeth were fragrant and fragrant. He was about to nod with satisfaction. Suddenly he thought of his purpose of coming back and tensed quickly.


    "This is the first-class tea that I specially asked for from my father. If my husband likes it, I''ll take more next time." Princess Changle turned her arm out without hesitation.


    Merton drank up the tea in his hand and sighed: "I like it, but I''m afraid it''s no blessing for my husband."


    Princess Changle turned her beautiful eyes and said, "why did the prime minister say this?"


    Merton said angrily, "your majesty will almost scold you for your husband today. If you let him know that you will spoil his most precious tea for your husband, will you have a good life for your husband?"


    Princess Changle suddenly felt guilty. Naturally, she knew the reason why Merton was scolded today. At that moment, she said coquettishly, "I''m afraid my husband can''t think of it for a moment. I''ve been tricked by the monk."


    Merton smiled angrily and said, "so you''re ready to incarnate the white lady, flood the Jinshan Temple and sacrifice your life to save your husband."


    "White lady?" Princess Changle opened her beautiful eyes and stared at Merton curiously.


    "This is just the legend of the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou?" Merton remembered that Leifeng Tower had not been built in this era, so he couldn''t help laughing.


    "I want to hear it. I like listening to the legend of the Xianggong general best." Princess Changle just wanted to change the topic and quickly spoiled her way.


    Moreover, Merton''s story telling has been recognized all over the world. After a record of Liang Zhu was rendered by Merton, the whole country was crazy about it. Not to mention the water covered Jinshan Temple in Merton''s mouth just now, she was more interested in the story of sacrificing her life to save her husband.


    When Merton heard Princess Changle''s coquettish and sought after eyes, he was already out of the sky. He had already forgotten the question of starting a teacher and asking for a crime. He couldn''t help but say proudly: "it is said that at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, there was a snake demon who had practiced for thousands of years and turned into a beautiful woman called white lady,......."


    What Merton said is naturally a well-known version of the legend of the new white lady. After being processed by later generations, it has long been perfect and attracted Princess Changle just at the beginning.


    "The snake demon turns into a form?" Princess Changle is very excited. If an ordinary woman hears the snake demon, she will be afraid, which is obviously not an obstacle for Princess Changle after learning medicine.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, this snake demon has been good all his life, has achieved good results, and is ready to become an immortal. However, he has been enlightened by master Guanyin. There is still a period of fate. When the white lady did not cultivate human nature, she was captured by a hunter and saved by a shepherd boy. Now the shepherd boy has been reincarnated and is now in the land of the West Lake in Suzhou and Hangzhou. Just go to the high place of the West Lake to find a life-saving benefactor."


    Princess Changle asked, "who was the reincarnation of the shepherd boy?"


    "The shepherd boy in those days is now reborn as a doctor''s son, named Xu Xian."


    "Doctor''s children!" Princess Changle could not help regretting. It would be better if she were a son of Mohism. However, the relationship between doctors and Mohism was not bad. Although Princess Changle regretted, she accepted it calmly.


    "The white lady and Xu Xianke once met." Princess Changle asked.


    Merton laughed and said, "the way of fate is wonderful. He also sang: the West Lake is beautiful in March, and the spring rain is like wine and willows. It''s fate to meet thousands of miles, but it''s hard to hold hands with each other. It''s the same for ten years and sleeping together for a hundred years. If it''s a thousand years of good fortune, the white heads are in front of us."


    Merton held Princess Changle''s hand tightly. He naturally understood the panic in Princess Changle''s heart. After all, how cruel it is for a woman to lose a loved one. He told the story of the White Snake today to reassure Princess Changle.


    "We must have a thousand years of fate in our previous lives. We can sleep together in this life and live a white life." Princess Changle said emotionally, and the uneasiness in her heart gradually settled down.


    "Meet at the broken bridge, swim the lake and borrow an umbrella..."


    Wonderful stories tell that from meeting to acquaintance, then to acquaintance and marriage, everything is as beautiful as the marriage arranged by God.


    However, the more beautiful the love, the more it will attract heaven''s jealousy. Just like Liang Zhu''s three-year classmate''s beautiful love, Xu Xian''s love with the white lady has also encountered the greatest crisis - that is, the identity of the white lady.


    "Fahai of Jinshan Temple told Xu Xian that his wife was transformed by a snake demon and a human demon. She tricked Xu Xian into becoming a monk. In her anger, the white lady flooded Jinshan Temple............................."


    Princess Changle suddenly realized that the origin of the white lady in Merton''s mouth that water covered the Jinshan Temple just now could not help a burst of Hao Ran, but when she thought about it, she had something in common with the white lady, all for her own love.


    "What about the result? Has the white lady rescued Xu Xian?" Princess Changle asked. Now she loves the white lady who dares to love and hate. Naturally, she wants the white lady to have a happy ending.


    Merton shook his head regretfully and said, "unfortunately, the white lady is pregnant. Although she has thousands of years of magic power, she moved her vitality. After giving birth to a son for Xu Xian, she was suppressed by Fahai under Leifeng Tower. The * * tower will not fall for a day, and the white lady and Xu Xian will not be reunited for a day."


    "Ah! These monks are so hateful that they don''t talk about their ruthlessness and willfully break up human love!" Princess Changle almost completely replaced herself into the white lady and shared a bitter hatred.


    "Can''t white lady and Xu Xian get together all their lives? Why do you always tell these tragic stories? No, I want white lady and Xu Xian to be reunited." Princess Changle''s small face was puffy and wanted to cry.


    Merton quickly apologized and said, "of course there is a change? The change is this newly born son, whose name is Xu Shilin..."


    Merton hurriedly admitted Xu Shilin to the top prize and went back home to sacrifice his mother. At the end of the family reunion, Merton said it again. Princess Changle broke her tears into laughter.


    "Don''t worry, what my husband learned is Mohist knowledge, and what he seeks is the truth of the world and absolute rationality. How can he believe in Buddhist idealism?" Merton said proudly.


    Princess Changle looked at Merton with admiration on her face. Although she didn''t go out, she also knew the hot discussion about the Mohist bridge erecting machine in Chang''an city. She naturally felt relieved about Merton.


    Merton went out after comforting Princess Changle. Now it is the key period for the construction of Qujiang bridge. He can''t sit in town without him.


    As soon as Merton''s front foot left, Princess Changle, who was just very weak, immediately buried herself at the table and wrote down the stories of the white lady she had just heard.


    "Come on, go to Mo magazine to invite Mo San, and say that there is a novel to be published in the palace." Princess Changle is sitting in danger, and the prestige of the hostess of Mo house is no doubt. In her manuscript, three big characters are written impressively.


    Biography of white snake


    It is intolerable for any wife that the Buddhist family wants to entice his prime minister to become a monk. Today, she turns into a white lady and gives the Buddhist family a golden mountain temple with water.

 Chapter 815

    In front of Wangji temple, there are many monks and guards.


    Today is the day when master Huiyuan left Chang''an city. Now the Buddhist affairs have been decided. The Buddhist family has turned the crisis into safety. His mission has been completed. It''s time to return to Shaolin Temple.


    "It''s not easy for you to come to Chang''an city. Why don''t you stop more and let me be a local host." Li Shimin shouted to stay.


    There are not many people in the world who are qualified to let Li Shimin send them off in person. Master Huiyuan is Li Shimin''s benefactor, the leader of Buddhism and the key to persuading Buddhism to accept the self-help plan, which makes Li Shimin pay special attention to it.


    "Thank you for your gracious hospitality. I''ve been bothered a lot. I''m going back to Shaolin. There are many Buddhists waiting for my news. I really don''t want to stop in Chang''an city!" master Huiyuan folded his hands in front of Wangji temple.


    "Have a nice trip, master!" Li Shimin said goodbye after seeing that he couldn''t stay for many times.


    "I''m leaving!" master Huiyuan has to spend a lot of time persuading the monks when he goes back. His heart is like an arrow. Moreover, the self-help plan is related to the future of Buddhism. Just like a dead sheep mending a prison, the sooner he mends the hole, the sooner he can be safe.


    "I''m sorry to see you off soon!" Li Shimin waved.


    "Master, have a safe trip!"


    The monks sent off one after another. Master Huiyuan came to Chang''an city but was invited to resolve the crisis of Buddhism. Now the Buddhism is safe, and the monks naturally don''t have to avoid it. They came to see him off one after another.


    "Debate, you must let master Huiyuan return to Shaolin safely. Don''t slack off along the way." master Huichang ordered.


    "Yes!"


    The debater on one side nodded heavily. It was a rare opportunity to contact master Huiyuan in person. Naturally, the debater would not refuse, and it was he who personally took master Huiyuan to Chang''an City, so he would naturally return it in person.


    Master Huiyuan saluted the crowd. With the help of the defense machine, he stepped on the carriage. With the sound of the coachman, the carriage went all the way towards the east gate along the straight brick road in Chang''an city.


    "Sell the newspaper! The latest issue of ink novels."


    "Please see the Buddhist monk subdue the snake demon himself!"


    "In a rage, the white lady flooded the Jinshan Temple."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Just as master Huiyuan was closing his eyes and meditating, after all, this trip to the West had changed the Buddhist school too much. There were both restrictions and the coming temptation of countless Tianzhu scriptures, which made the Buddhist school have to treat it seriously. Suddenly, he was awakened by the cry of a newsboy.


    "Ink magazine! Buddhist monk! Jinshan Temple."


    Master Huiyuan''s heart moved and he couldn''t help saying, "stop and buy an ink magazine."


    "Yes, master!" the debater immediately responded, got out of the carriage and went to the newsboy.


    After a while, the defense machine returned with two ink magazines, handed one of them to master Huiyuan, and turned it to the ink novel page with eyes.


    "Legend of the white snake!"


    Master Huiyuan was stunned when he looked at the name of the novel in the ink magazine. Unexpectedly, there was a legend of the white snake.


    "This is the characteristic of Mohist magazine. It is called a novel, not a real biography. The best novels in the world are Mohist Zi''s Liangzhu, which was popular in Chang''an city at the beginning." the defense machine explained to master Huiyuan.


    Master Huiyuan nodded. He even heard about the storm of Liang Zhu. He couldn''t help but look at it curiously.


    However, when he saw Guanyin Bodhisattva enlightening the White Snake, he couldn''t help raising his eyebrows. The Buddhism has always thought that the Buddha has great powers to save suffering and difficulties, and Guanyin Bodhisattva''s enlightening the snake demon has added three myths to the Buddhism.


    Master Huiyuan couldn''t help nodding. If the biography of the white snake could be as popular as Liang Zhu in the Tang Dynasty, the benefits to Buddhism would be incalculable. He secretly praised Mohist Zi. It seems that Mohist Zi still knows how much harm Mohist periodicals had done to Buddhism before. Now he thinks of it to make up for it.


    "White lady, doctor''s son Xu Xian."


    At present, master Huiyuan couldn''t help but watch it with interest. Even if the debate on one side was biased against the ink magazines repeatedly targeting Buddhism, he couldn''t help but indulge in the perfect love between Xu Xian and Lady Bai.


    Master Huiyuan naturally noticed that bianji was addicted to and eager for the love between Bai Niang and Xu Xian. He couldn''t help sighing in his heart and chanting the Buddha''s name: "Amitabha, the love between Bai Niang and Xu benefactor is actually the fate of thousands of years in previous lives. One drink and one Peck is very consistent with the Buddhist way of cause and effect."


    The debater suddenly woke up, and his face turned red and said, "the master is really good, and the little monk is taught."


    Master Huiyuan nodded with satisfaction when he saw the understanding of the defense machine. In his opinion, in addition to his unstable mind, the defense machine''s wisdom is extremely extraordinary. In addition, the defense machine is only a weak year, and it is valuable to be able to do this step.


    They continued to watch, but when they saw the villain Fahai appear, their faces suddenly changed.


    "Good!" the defense machine was very happy. He was full of joy when he saw that Fahai opened the white lady and Xu Xian.


    Master Huiyuan frowned. He realized that the novel might not be so friendly to Buddhism. The reason why Fahai broke up the white lady seemed justified, but logically, it destroyed a perfect love.


    As the saying goes, it''s better to dismantle ten temples than a marriage, but Fahai destroyed a love with a thousand years of fate. Master Huiyuan can predict that now in Chang''an City, I''m afraid the streets are full of curses of Buddhist ruthlessness.


    "The Mohist family is simply treacherous. My Buddhist family has signed the alliance under the city, but the Mohist family is still killing all." the defense machine also suddenly woke up, his heart moved and his face was angry with heaven.


    In his opinion, the Buddhists had signed the alliance under the city almost in accordance with the conditions of Mohist Zi, but he didn''t expect that master Huiyuan''s front foot had not gone out of Chang''an City, and the back foot Mohist magazine sent a document to slander the Buddhists.


    The legend of the white snake is naturally a delicious spiritual feast for ordinary people, but it is a fatal attack on Buddhism, directly hitting the weakness of Buddhism to cut off the love between men and women.


    To the surprise of the defense, master Huiyuan didn''t get angry, but shook his head and said with a wry smile: "this time, I''m afraid you''ve wronged Mozi."


    "How is it possible? Not to mention that the ink print is the thing of Mohism. Who else can write such a novel except Mohism?" the defense machine retorted.


    Master Huiyuan''s face remained unchanged. He pointed to the ink magazine in his hand and said, "look, who is the author? You''ll understand the reason."


    The debater looked in the direction of master Huiyuan''s fingers. When he saw the final signature, he couldn''t believe it and said, "Princess Changle!"

 Chapter 816

    It is well known that Princess Changle is the wife of mojiazi. Their perfect love can be said to be the envy of women all over the world. However, Princess Changle suddenly published the legend of the white snake in the ink magazine to attack the ruthless nature of Buddhism. I''m afraid there is only one reason, that is, for mojiazi.


    Under the spark of calcium carbide, master Huiyuan and debater suddenly figured out the reason. I''m afraid that this time Princess Changle must have caused the dispute caused by master Huiyuan''s strong invitation to Merton to Buddhism and Xu''s position as the sixth ancestor.


    "It turns out that the MOH family is Xu Xian, and the princess Changle is the white lady!" the defense machine suddenly said strangely.


    In an instant, boundless jealousy filled the chest of the defense machine. One of the Mohists and Princess Changle was in charge of the theory of one family, and the other was the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. They were originally a pair made in heaven. Their tortuous love stories and the meeting of women disguised as men were known all over the world by metaphorizing their love with Liang Zhu.


    However, no one thought that just because of the words of master Huiyuan, Princess Changle threw out a classic love like the legend of the white snake to show her determination to defend love.


    "If you have a wife, you can''t ask for a husband!" the words rose involuntarily in the heart of the debater, and all these belong to mojiazi, and he thought that he would not lose to anyone. However, such wonderful and vigorous love was doomed to have no chance with him from the beginning.


    Master Huiyuan could not help nodding with emotion. This novel may have been written by Mozi, but it was definitely inspired by Princess Changle to be published in Mozi.


    In the novel, the white lady can flood the golden mountain for Xu Xian, while in reality, the princess of Changle will certainly do her best to deal with Buddhism for the sake of Mohist.


    With the influence of Princess Changle, it will not be possible to solve the problem at that time. If Princess Changle persuades Li Shimin, maybe the third Buddhist dharma difficulty will come 200 years ahead of time. Master Huiyuan was cold at the thought of this possibility.


    At the thought of this, master Huiyuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. This time, he was too anxious. He didn''t expect that there would be such a big storm because he was eager to win over the mojiazi at any cost. First, the wine and meat of the mojiazi passed through the intestines and remained in the heart of the Buddha, which made a big flaw in the Buddhist rules and regulations, and Princess Changle published the biography of the white snake I''m afraid that with the wide spread of the legend of the White Snake, it will have a great impact on Buddhism in the future.


    At the thought of this, master Huiyuan couldn''t help feeling lucky. Fortunately, Mozi didn''t agree to join the Buddhist family, otherwise it''s still unknown whether it''s a blessing or a curse for the Buddhist family.


    "However, the legend of the white snake is not good for Buddhists." master Huiyuan''s eyes flashed. The legend of the White Snake only attacked the Buddhist theory of abstinence, but vigorously promoted the great mercy of master Guanyin and the fatalism that has been their fate for thousands of years. What made master Huiyuan more excited was the ability of Fahai to subdue demons and eliminate demons and boundless magic power in the legend of the white snake, Isn''t it that the boundless concept of Buddhism, which has been publicized by Buddhists, finally has a concrete scene, which is of great significance to the development of Buddhists.


    "Master, the east gate has arrived!" as the carriage stopped steadily, the defense machine bowed.


    Master Huiyuan stopped thinking, got up and got off the carriage. At a glance, he saw a Mohist carriage waiting there. The coachman saw master Huiyuan''s eyes brighten and immediately walked forward: "Li Xin met master Huiyuan. The young master can''t come to see him off. Let me say sorry to the master. I was lucky to escort master Huiyuan to Chang''an city myself. Now the young master has specially arranged to escort the master back to Shaolin."


    When master Huiyuan wanted to return to Shaolin Temple, the quickest way was to take the carriage of Mohism. He looked at it intently. It was the coachman who personally sent him to Chang''an city. At the beginning, Li Xin was supervising the Luoyang chariot and horse shop. When he saw master Huiyuan ready to take a car, he suddenly thought of the gratitude and resentment between mohkan and Buddhism. Then he had an idea and tried his best to overcome the public opinion and let master Huiyuan argue with him Get on the plane and act as a coachman in person.


    Master Huiyuan had an excellent impression of Li Xin. He nodded and said, "thank you, benefactor Li."


    One side of the debate Machine couldn''t help but curl his lips. Naturally, he knew the reason why Mohist didn''t dare to see him off. Mohist magazine went back and attacked Buddhism again. I''m afraid Mohist didn''t have the face to see Master Huiyuan again.


    Master Huiyuan nodded and couldn''t help looking at the carriage in front of him. This time, the carriage is not a common bus that can be used by many people, but a special car specially prepared by the Mohist School for master Huiyuan. It is very comfortable and doesn''t fear the pain of long journey.


    Seeing this, Li Xin couldn''t help running around and transferred master Huiyuan''s salute to the carriage of the Mohist school, while the debate Machine on the side stood there. His eyes couldn''t help asking about the coming and going business trips. It was rare for him to get out of the temple gate, so he was naturally very curious about the outside world.


    Master Huiyuan looked at the debate machine and wanted to give some advice. Suddenly, he saw that many young women, if they were separated, floated their eyes to the beautiful face of the debate machine. They couldn''t help but sigh and take back their words.


    "Maybe he won''t really understand the true meaning of Buddhism until he has experienced a love robbery." master Huiyuan sighed in his heart. However, he didn''t think of the tragic ending of the love robbery in history.


    "Amitabha! This trip can be escorted by benefactor Li. You can go back to Huichang temple to avoid delaying your lessons." master Huiyuan praised the Buddha''s name to the debate machine, and then put down the curtain.


    "I...!" the defense machine suddenly blushed. He was entrusted by master Huichang to send master Huiyuan back to Shaolin, but he didn''t expect to go out of the east gate, so he was advised to go back by master Huiyuan. How can he explain.


    "Little monk, please come back! The Mohist School in Luoyang is also very familiar, so we can ensure that you can send the master back to Shaolin safely." Li Xin reached out to stop the debate machine and shouted, "sit down, master. I''m going to start."


    With Li Xin''s clear drink, the carriage immediately accelerated to Luoyang, leaving the debate machine alone outside the east gate.


    "Mohism!"


    The debater''s face turned red, his hands were tightly held together, and he clenched his teeth.


    On the carriage, master Huiyuan sat in the carriage and saw the trees on both sides of the brick road outside the window rapidly regress. He couldn''t help falling into meditation and began to count the gains and losses of coming to Chang''an City this time.


    As for the great enemy of Buddhism, I''m afraid it must be Taoism, which is the same religion. Taoism and Buddhism compete for believers most fiercely. Most of the two sides have the most direct conflicts. The second is the dominant Confucianism. If the Buddhism expands wantonly, it will certainly threaten the position of Confucianism. When the two martial arts are difficult, Confucianism can''t get rid of its relationship, After all, the expansion of Buddhism has endangered the interests of Confucianism.


    However, when he came to Chang''an this time, he found that the situation faced by Buddhism was changing, and Buddhism had another new opponent.


    Mohism!


    Although Mohism has just risen and has little influence, master Huiyuan is acutely aware that if the most absolutely rational Mohism develops and grows, it will give a fatal blow to the Buddhist school advocating religious theology. This threat is even more serious than Taoism and Confucianism.


    In contrast, Taoism and Confucianism only suppress Buddhism, but can not fundamentally destroy Buddhism, while Mohism is not. Once people of insight come into contact with the absolute rationality of Mohism, it may be difficult to believe in any religion.


    But fortunately, Mohism is still very weak at the moment! For the time being, it is not enough to pose a threat to Buddhism.


    In addition, there are doctors. With the continuous development of Mohist hospital, more and more diseases can be cured in Mohist hospital. Believers invest more and more money in Mohist hospital. Some even invest all their wealth in Mohist hospital to recover, instead of donating to temples, asking for Buddha''s blessing and praying for miracles as before, Doctors will be the biggest financial competitor of Buddhism.


    "Taoism, Confucianism, Mohism and medicine." master Huiyuan recited silently in his heart, and even the arithmetic pulse of directly blocking the lotus argument of a group of eminent monks with cold numbers at that time also surprised him.


    Nowadays, hundreds of schools of thought are booming, and the contention of hundreds of schools of thought is rising again. In addition, although the scale and theory of Buddhism can be as famous as those of hundreds of schools of thought, it is an external force after all, and can not help being excluded by these hundreds of schools.


    Master Huiyuan saw the four crises of Buddhism and the shortcomings of Buddhism itself, so he nodded and agreed to the self-help plan of Buddhism. Otherwise, if Buddhism can''t make up for itself, it will only fail in the end. Although today''s Buddhism is limited, it can develop healthily and be blessed.

 Chapter 817

    Confucian journal station!


    "Shashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashashasha.


    Ma Fuzi, the editor in chief of the Confucian journal, picked up the semi-finished Confucian journals printed one by one from time to time. Today is the release date of the ink journal. In a few days, it will be the release date of the ink journal. There is not much time left for the Confucian journal. Editor in chief Ma must check the quality of each issue of the Confucian journal,


    Nowadays, the ink journal has become popular, and the Confucian journal has fallen too far behind. Fortunately, the Confucian journal and the ink journal will be issued in a few days, and the Confucian journal will have a certain market, otherwise it will be more miserable.


    At the moment, Wei Si''an, the owner of Confucian magazine, came in worried and asked, "master, can the ink problem of Confucian magazine have been solved this time.


    After the turmoil of Buddhism, the circulation of ink journals has been much higher than that of Confucian journals. In order to solve the dilemma of Confucian journals, Wei Si''an and chief editor Ma learned from the pain and made great efforts to find out the gap between ink journals and Confucian journals. It was found that in addition to the information of Confucian journals lagging behind ink journals in content, the level of printing also lags behind ink journals too much.


    On the same paper, the newspaper printed by Ink magazine is not only smaller, but also clearer. In this way, the content printed by Ink magazine on the same size paper is more, which is naturally very popular. The culprit of all this is the humble ink.


    "If you go back to the East, it took a lot of money to invite a famous ink maker, the descendants of the Xi family, to use the ink blending method to mix the ink. Although it is still not as good as the ink produced by the Mohists, it has been much better than all the ink in the previous Confucian journals." Ma Fuzi relaxed.


    The ink blending method is the most advanced technology for making ink. Some precious inkstones are made by using the ink blending method, and the ink produced is very delicate.


    Wei Si''an loosened his tight frown a little. The Xi family was a famous ink maker in the Tang Dynasty. Some scholars and poets admired the Xi family''s ink. They didn''t expect that even the Xi family''s ink could not compare with the ink produced by the Mohist family.


    "Let the Xi family continue to develop ink. He doesn''t ask him to surpass Mohist ink. He just needs to be almost the same as Mohist ink. Since it is a great achievement, I have a lot of rewards." Weisi''an firmly said that if the ink problem of Confucian journals is not solved, Confucian journals will always lag behind Mexican journals. This time, the debate between Mohist and Buddha shows the power of newspapers and periodicals. There is no doubt that he has won the support of many big people, and money has not been a problem for a long time.


    Master Ma nodded and said, "the Xi family will step up to do the ink business, but I''ve thought of the way the owner wants to improve the sales of Confucian journals."


    "Oh!" Wei Si''an couldn''t help but look at Ma Fuzi unexpectedly. Although Confucianism magazine thinks it is authentic, it lags behind in the news. Some scholars'' articles are boring, while the latest news and wealth information of Mohist magazine, comments on the classic cases of Legalist Han Zheng, as well as the medical knowledge popularized from time to time, Mohist magazine is very popular, and its sales have been sold off several streets of Confucianism magazine The sales volume of Confucian journals has always been a worry for everyone.


    "Look, master!" master Ma proudly picked up a Confucian journal that had just been printed and handed it to Wei Si''an.


    Wei Sian took it over and found that the semi-finished products printed with new ink had already been printed with dense fonts. The fonts were much smaller than before. In this way, we can greatly save paper and cost.


    "This is a novel..." Wei Si''an was surprised when he saw the content.


    The groom nodded and said, "yes, this is a novel."


    When Wei Si settled down, he frowned. He thought that Confucian journals were very orthodox and disdained to publish novels. If even Confucian journals published novels, wouldn''t it be as vulgar as ink journals? In this way, let alone that he didn''t accept it, even other scholars might not be able to accept it. This may be self defeating and destroy the existing situation of Confucian journals.


    Master Ma naturally knew Wei Si''an''s mind. He couldn''t help laughing and said, "don''t be angry. This is not an ordinary novel, but a novel of talented people and beautiful women specially selected by me. It must be loved by scholars. Once this novel is published, I can guarantee that the sales of Confucian journals will increase."


    "Talent and beauty!"


    Wei Si''an then settled down and looked carefully at the Confucian journal in his hand. As expected, a frustrated talent met everyone. The two were hampered by many obstacles. Finally, the talent was admitted to the first place and returned to his hometown. The talent and beauty were happy.


    This kind of bridge section can be said to be a rotten street in later generations, but it is extremely novel in this era. Wei Sian nodded secretly in his heart. Once this novel was published, the sales of Confucian journals must surge.


    However, before he opened his mouth, an editor of a Confucian journal hurried in and shouted, "no, the ink journal has serialized novels again."


    "Ink magazine serializes novels again?" editor in chief Ma and Weisi were surprised when they settled down. They clearly remember the frenzy that swept the Tang Dynasty when ink magazine serialized Liang Zhu, but now Ink magazine began to serialize novels again. How can they not treat them carefully.


    At the same time, they also have competing ideas in their hearts. This time, their talent and beauty novels just compete with ink magazine.


    "Legend of the White Snake"


    When they saw the title, they couldn''t help looking at each other. Is the ink magazine''s novel a biography, and it still takes the white snake as the biography? They couldn''t help but despise it.


    However, when they continued to read, they couldn''t help opening their eyes. The contempt in their original heart suddenly disappeared, which brought a strong shock. The original novel can also be written like this.


    When they turned their heads and looked at the novels already printed in Confucian journals, the novels of talented people and beautiful women who thought they were men and women, suddenly felt dull.


    "Stop, stop!" editor in chief Ma shouted with a gloomy face to stop the Confucian journal that was originally being printed.


    "Editor in chief, why don''t you print!" an editor asked puzzled.


    Editor in chief Ma was angry and said, "once the legend of the white snake comes out, we still print a fart!"


    Editor in chief Ma is no longer satisfied with the ink magazine, but he has never despised the ink magazine. Now that the ink magazine white snake biography is published, who is still the opponent in the world? The talent and beauty novels of Confucianism can only add laughingstock. I''m afraid we have to wait until the upsurge of white snake biography has passed.


    For the Confucian journal, the publication of the White Snake directly killed the novel plan of the Confucian journal. However, for the people of Chang''an City, it once again set off a novel wave no less than that caused by Liang Zhu.


    The first to detonate the legend of the White Snake was an unknown minor from the Mo mansion.


    "Ten years of training can make you cross the boat, and a hundred years of training can make you sleep together! If there is good fortune in a thousand years, white heads are in front of you!"


    For a while, the whole city was humming this catchy tune, and then combined with the wonderful story of the legend of the White Snake, it suddenly detonated the wave of the legend of the white snake.


    "The white lady is a model of a good wife. She is beautiful, kind-hearted and loves her husband." almost all the men in Chang''an praised the white lady.


    When we meet on a broken bridge, the ferry borrows an umbrella and steals fairy grass to save her husband. Finally, for her husband, she does not hesitate to flood the golden mountain and suppress it. She is not allowed to turn over under Leifeng Tower forever. She not only has beautiful love, harmonious and magical life, but also has the courage to be desperate for love. The white lady can be said to have gathered the advantages of all good wives, It''s not a blessing that a husband in the world can get such a wife for thousands of years.


    "But after all, the white lady turned into a snake demon, and the human demon had a different way. This love was wrong from the beginning." some stubborn people argued with dissatisfaction.


    "Fahai is a monk, how can he understand love! Besides, what about the different paths between human and demon? As long as it is true love, Xu Xian is too soft and weak, which really annoys me." many people are angry with Xu Xian.


    "Yes, the white lady thanked her kindness, which was personally instructed by master Guanyin. Fahai was worried about mice..."


    "Besides, isn''t Xu Shilin, the white lady''s son, good? He''s not a normal person. What can be the problem?"


    "Buddhism has no emotion and no nature. Do you still require others to do so?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Sure enough, as predicted by master Huiyuan, once the legend of the White Snake was published, the Buddhist heartless commandment immediately became the object of attack by all the people.


    "You don''t know yet. Although the white lady is made up, the person who wrote the biography of the white snake is a real white lady." a merchant suddenly said mysteriously.


    "Princess Changle?" the people immediately looked at each other.


    "What''s the solution?" an idle man asked.


    The merchant said proudly, "do you know that in the Wangji temple, Mozi tried his best to persuade the Buddhists to save themselves?"


    The people nodded one after another. This matter was widely spread in Chang''an city. Moreover, the Bodhi Xie of Mohist school, the love of Ananda stone bridge and the rules and regulations written by Mohist School stunned the people in Chang''an city. No one thought that Mohist school should be so proficient in Buddhism.


    The merchant smiled bitterly and said, "the problem is that Mohist Zi''s research on Buddhist theory is too profound. Master Yu Huiyuan even highly praised him as the sixth ancestor of Zen."


    "The sixth patriarch of Zen!" all the people were in an uproar, especially the Buddhist believers. If you know the history of Buddhism, you can know how respected the sixth patriarch of Zen is.


    "What''s the result?" they hurriedly asked. This is the big gossip of all schools of thought. How can they not be curious.


    "Of course, the Mohist family refused. He wanted to revive the Mohist family. Naturally, he would not change to another door." the merchant saw that everyone was attracted and couldn''t help saying.


    "Oh!" the crowd was not only sorry, but also relieved.


    "That''s right. Mozi and Princess Changle are more in love than Jin Jian. How can they abandon their lovely wife and choose to become a monk?"


    "Mozi is in charge of Mozi, and his position is not lower than that of the sixth ancestor of Buddhism."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People talked and understood the news of Mohist Zi''s refusal.


    The merchant continued to say mysteriously, "but although Mohist Zi refused, how can Princess Changle rest assured. In my opinion, the purpose of Princess Changle''s publication of the biography of the white snake is to show her determination to the Buddhist family."


    They nodded deeply. According to the merchant''s analysis, they compared the plot in the legend of the white snake. They found that in addition to exaggerating, others had amazing similarities.


    For a moment, people gradually combined the image of Zhu Yingtai, who disguised Princess Changle as a woman and dared to pursue love, with the image of a virtuous wife who still wanted to save her husband at the cost of water and gold mountain. Suddenly, the symbol of a perfect woman appeared in everyone''s mind.


    "Princess Changle is really a strange woman!" the people of Chang''an City praised her. For a moment, the reputation of Princess Changle soared again.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Good! Worthy of being my daughter!"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing at the biography of the white snake in the ink magazine. Under the hall, the beautiful minor came out of Zheng Chonghua''s mouth gently, just like a lark.


    With the spread of Ink magazine, the story of the white snake is naturally unknown and well known in the palace. Even the minor is naturally introduced into the palace. Zheng Chonghua, the youngest, is the best singer, which is very popular with Li Shimin.


    However, Li Shimin is still a little afraid now. He just fooled mojiazi and asked him to persuade Buddhism, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi did so beautifully and persuaded Buddhism with Buddhist theory.


    At the thought that mojiazi is so proficient in Buddhism, if he really can''t think of it, no! If he suddenly realized it, he would be in trouble. Did he stand on the side of the Buddhist family in order to support his daughter''s love for the Buddhist family, or did he care about the kindness of the Buddhist family? It''s hard to think about it. Fortunately, the boy Morton knows the truth and doesn''t embarrass him.


    "Emperor, people are singing vigorously. Why are you distracted!" Zheng Chonghua snuggled up and said with a look of indifference.


    Li Shimin suddenly smiled, took Zheng Chonghua''s jade hand and said, "I don''t think again. We must have a thousand years of fate in our previous lives. We can sleep together in this life. We grow old."


    In Li Shimin''s opinion, his marriage with Zheng Chonghua was full of twists and turns. At that time, because of the engagement between Zheng Chonghua and Lu Shuang, the whole government opposed it. Finally, Li Shimin benefited from Merton''s new marriage concept of mutual voluntariness, which made Li Shimin find a reason to overcome all opinions and bring Zheng Chonghua into the harem.


    "That must be my blessing from thousands of years of practice in my previous life."


    Zheng Chonghua leaned into Li Shimin''s arms, but he said sadly: "don''t I really have no chance with Merton in my previous life, and this life can be doomed to pass by."


    If Princess Changle knew, she would be helpless. In order to meet Merton, she had to dress up as a woman. In order to prevent her father''s opposition, she even secretly sent a secret code for several months. Now, although they have achieved good results, they not only prevent the coveted of other women, but also want to rob their husbands with a group of monks.


    It''s so difficult for me.

 Chapter 818

    You can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen.


    Beat cockroaches and fight monks.


    Not to mention the standards brought by Princess Changle to the new generation of women, among the waves of the legend of the White Snake, the ink magazine has benefited the most.


    "Overprint!"


    "Overprint!"


    With the continuous spread of the biography of the White Snake, ink periodicals, which had a huge circulation, once again fell into a situation of short supply.


    In this era of extreme lack of entertainment activities, the sensation caused by the more mysterious and bizarre biography of the white snake is better than Liang Zhu.


    For a while, ink magazines worked overtime to print. As soon as they were printed, they were transported to all parts of the Tang Dynasty by carriages. Confucianism magazines, which originally had a small market share, were squeezed out of shape, so that the sales volume of the new issue of Confucianism magazines was even bleak, and even the number of ink magazines printed at one time could not match.


    Beside Qujiang River, Li Yun read the new issue of Ink magazine with interest. These wonderful stories can''t be seen in Xiangfu''s seclusion.


    "The Mohists are so lucky that they let Princess Changle use them deeply." Li Yun couldn''t help sighing.


    The old servant nodded approvingly and said, "it''s a pity! If Mozi really understands everything and enters the Buddhist school, my Mozi school will be peaceful."


    Li Yun could not help but be silent. If he had agreed with this idea before, after all, Xiangfu thought that the Mohist family had abandoned the idea of Mohist saint and abandoned the book to the end, which was the most unorthodox Mohist art. But on the contrary, even the Buddhists would compete for the supreme position of Merton, which would be the embodiment of the value of the Mohist family. If Merton really joined the Buddhism, Is it really good for Mohism?


    In addition, although Mohist Zi abandoned the political concept of Mohist saint and devoted himself to the development of Mohist technology, it is much better than Deng Ling''s line, which has been reduced to street art, let alone the Mohist village''s Mohist technology once again made Mohist famous and embarked on the road of revival.


    "Maybe Mohism is the right way?" this idea has been lingering in Li Yun''s mind. Compared with the reclusive Xiangfu family, the vibrant and changing Mohist village is probably the weather of Mohism in his mind.


    But he soon put the idea out of his mind. Now the most important thing he has to do is to build and close the bridge in front of him.


    With the long steel cable of Qianjin arm lifting a huge stone and firmly clasping it in the last gap of the arch bridge, the arch bridge built by Li Yundu was finally completed.


    "Good!" the old servant looked at the closed bridge and said excitedly, "young master, if you build this bridge, you will become famous in one fell swoop."


    In his opinion, the arch bridge built by Li Yun is not only extremely short in time, but also with the help of Mohist Qianjin arm, the stones used in the arch bridge are more huge, and the bearing capacity and firmness are better than ordinary arch bridges, which is also the most proud place of old servants.


    Li Yun''s face could not help showing a trace of pride. When he first designed the arch bridge, he knew that the Qujiang bridge built by Mohist Zi was originally an arch bridge. It was because of the sudden popularity of Mohist four-wheel carriages, especially the surge in the weight of four-wheel freight vehicles, that the Qujiang Bridge collapsed rapidly.


    When he designed this arch bridge, he had been keenly aware of the problem of cargo capacity, and had focused on increasing the bearing capacity of the arch bridge. It can be said that this bridge is better than all arch bridges in the world in terms of bearing capacity.


    However, his eyes followed the river and looked at the unique beam bridge vaguely visible in the distance. A trace of worry flashed in his heart. Although he had confidence in his own arch bridge, he faced an unknown beam bridge. There are always lingering clouds in his heart.


    Qujiang bridge.


    Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist family, put away her usual domineering spirit, shrunk her head like a little quail and followed Merton behind her.


    "Congratulations, master. Now the Qujiang bridge has finally been completed. People on both sides of Qujiang will surely remember the great kindness of master in the future." Wu Meiniang flattered while looking at the Qujiang bridge that was about to be completed.


    Since she obeyed Shiniang''s arrangement, she severely punished Shiniang. Although Shiniang protected her from punishment, all Shifu didn''t know where to get some difficult questions. She didn''t let her suffer by taking the opportunity of teaching disciples.


    Merton snorted coldly, "the Mohists act to show what they have learned, not for the kindness of the people."


    "The Mohist school is high in righteousness, the master is wise! I admire you." Wu Meiniang quickly flattered her.


    Merton''s face relaxed, pointed to the Mohist children who laid cement on the bridge deck and said, "as a teacher, test you again. Do you know why these workers want to separate these cement into blocks."


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help but look bitter and didn''t dare to slack off. She quickly focused on the gradually solidified concrete bridge deck in front of her, and couldn''t help falling into meditation.


    The biggest advantage of cement is that it can set infinitely as long as the raw materials are enough. However, the cement in front of us is different. Instead, we use cardboard to separate the originally flat cement road on the bridge into blocks the size of a square meter.


    Moreover, according to the children of the Mohists, this was specially ordered by the master. Many people also complained that it took too much work and was not beautiful. How much was the original flat road. Not only that, Merton also ordered the extremely smooth road that was originally painted to be deliberately rough.


    "This is to enhance friction and prevent slipping!" Wu Meiniang felt a move in her heart. She had just come into contact with Mohist theory. What she was most interested in was all kinds of machinery. What she learned most was Mohist mechanics. Naturally, she knew the reasons. However, she was puzzled about the measures to separate the cement road.


    "I''m stupid. Please give me some advice." after a long time, Wu Meiniang had no choice but to bow her head and ask for advice.


    Merton couldn''t help showing a trace of pride, and then hid his positive color and said, "if you want to really understand the truth, you need to learn the new knowledge of Mohism, the way of distance, and being a teacher will teach you a new lesson."


    "The way of distance!" Wu Meiniang suddenly looked solemn. Although Merton didn''t have many opportunities to teach her in person, he benefited a lot from every lesson.


    "Since ancient times, people all over the world have racked their brains to shorten the distance and avoid detours, and the bridge is one of the most dazzling masterpieces. The land of a river is no more than tens of feet wide, and the two sides can shout across the air. However, if you want to cross the river, you have to go around dozens of miles before you can have a ferry. Even in summer, when there are floods, the ferry is also extremely dangerous, and the traffic is cut off. It is often after a month, so the bridge Came into being. "


    Wu Meiniang nodded. Recently, in order to study all kinds of bridges, stone arch bridges, beam bridges, single wooden bridges, iron cable bridges,... All kinds of bridges have been dabbled in. Naturally, she knows the importance of bridges.


    "In addition to bridges, there is another way to make the distance not far away, that is speed."


    "Speed!" Wu Meiniang looked at Merton puzzled.


    "In the past, it took more than five days for the carriage to reach Chang''an City from Luoyang, but now the carriage of Mohist school goes from Chang''an city to Luoyang day and night. It takes only six hours. However, the distance will never change, but the time is greatly reduced, which makes the people no longer feel distant. Its mystery lies in speed.


    Psychologically, the distance between Chang''an and Luoyang is not as far away as before. The frequency of people''s exchanges between the two cities has doubled, which is proof. "


    Wu Meiniang nodded solemnly.


    "To study distance, time, distance and, of course, the speed of cars and horses are indispensable. This will be another branch of Mohism besides mechanics." Merton said solemnly.


    "I understand. I''m sure I won''t let the master down." Wu Meiniang solemnly promised, with a trace of disappointment in her tone.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang helplessly and said, "do you think the lessons taught today have nothing to do with being a teacher?"


    Wu Meiniang took a careful look at Merton and whispered, "I don''t dare. I''m just stupid. I''m sorry to solve my doubts in the future."


    Morton snorted coldly. He didn''t know Wu Meiniang''s ghost mind. If he didn''t show some real skills, he couldn''t frighten the little girl. Then he snorted coldly: "What I said just now is just a macro distance. However, there are still micro and undetectable distance changes in the micro fields invisible to the naked eye. If it is used properly, it will be of great use. If it is not used properly, even the bridge built by Wanguan will be destroyed unknowingly."


    "Macro, micro!" Wu Meiniang was interested and listened attentively.


    Merton Lang said in a voice: "records of the historian ¡¤ river canal book:" Shu guards the ice, chisels away from the pestle, prevents the harm of foam water, and passes through the two rivers in Chengdu. " In the pre Qin period, the Mohist ancestors helped Li Bing, the governor of Shu, build Dujiangyan. However, in addition to the torrential river water, there was another problem in Dujiangyan, that is, cutting away from the pestle, which was extremely hard. All skilled craftsmen in the world were helpless. In the face of such a problem, the Mohist ancestors stood up and helped Li Bing dig away from the pestle with a very simple method, that is fire The method of boiling water.


    "The method of fire and water stimulation." Wu Meiniang was shocked. She was most interested in all kinds of secret skills of Mohism.


    "Do you know why a very hard boulder can be easily chiseled out when it is burned by fire and poured with water?" Merton asked.


    Wu Meiniang thought and said, "is it true that the secret is in fire and water?"


    "Yes, later, after many studies, the sages of Mohism found that if an object is very hot, it will increase a little. If it is cold, it will shrink a little. The fire makes the boulder extremely hot, while the water makes the high temperature drop sharply. Between this cold and heat, the shape of the Boulder has changed slightly. My teacher called it thermal expansion and cold Shrink. "


    Wu Meiniang suddenly realized that under the action of heat expansion and cold contraction, the boulder had already been damaged inside, and it could be easily chiseled.


    "Could it be that master separated the concrete bridge deck into pieces to prevent thermal expansion and cold contraction!" Wu Meiniang looked at the cement roads under her feet and looked at Merton with admiration.


    Merton nodded: "yes, the cement is extremely heat absorbing. After being directly exposed to the sun in summer, it will produce high temperature. Although there is no violent method of fire and water stimulation, over time, it will destroy the bridge deck one day and reserve gaps in advance to ensure that the bridge is carefree."


    "Wise master!" Wu Meiniang looked back at Merton''s process of building the bridge. Then she suddenly realized that the principle of heat expansion and cold contraction had been unknowingly applied to the extreme.

 Chapter 819

    "This is a new type of reinforced concrete beam bridge. As a teacher, it''s natural to consider everything. If all previous efforts are wasted because of a small mistake, it''s not to lose the face of Mohism." Merton said.


    The reinforced concrete beam bridge is the first to create the history of the bridge. Merton naturally wants to be perfect. Moreover, with the increasing load of the four-wheel carriage, the importance of the beam bridge will become more and more important. It is self-evident that repairing the beam bridge in advance is beneficial to the Mohist school.


    "Unfortunately, the master''s knowledge is so broad and profound, but some people don''t agree with the master." Wu Mei Niang looked at the shadow of the distant arch bridge and said that she was not worth it to Merton.


    Merton smiled and said, "distance is really broad and profound. Not only can it be used in ink technology, but also between people and hundreds of families."


    "People can use it among hundreds of families?" Wu Meiniang asked with her glasses wide open.


    Merton Lang said, "in Mozi''s secret book, an interesting story discovered by the Mohist saint was recorded. You may understand it after listening."


    "Mozi''s secret?" Wu Meiniang became excited. This is the top secret of Mohism. It has always been mastered by the master. Every story is very philosophical and even hides the secret skills of Mohism. She has been itching for a long time. Unfortunately, she has read the books in the study for a long time, but she still hasn''t seen the trace of Mozi''s secret, No one thought that Merton would be here to tell her Mozi''s Secret works.


    "Mozi walked in the state of Zhao and stayed at a hunter''s house. The hunter was good at hunting and caught more than a dozen hedgehogs at a time. However, the heavy snow suddenly fell that night. These hedgehogs were shivering all over. In order to keep warm, they had to lean close together. When they got close to each other, they would soon separate from each other because they couldn''t stand the long thorns on each other. But the weather was too cold , they leaned together again to keep warm. However, the tingling when they leaned together forced them to separate again. If they were too close, they would be tingled; if they were too far away, they would be uncomfortable with cold. "Merton sighed.


    "Ah! What should I do?" Wu Meiniang was still a little girl after all. When she heard that hedgehogs were suffering, she couldn''t help worrying.


    Merton then said, "in this way, they divided and gathered again and again, gathered and divided again and again, constantly struggling between being frozen and stabbed. Finally, the hedgehogs finally found a moderate distance, which can keep warm and not be stabbed by each other. Only then can they spend a long night."


    "These hedgehogs are so clever!" Wu Meiniang said happily.


    "When Mo Sheng observed this scene, he couldn''t help sighing and saying: near hurts others, far hurts himself, far and near, and tells the distance between people."


    "The distance between people." Wu Meiniang looked at the distant arch bridge and thought deeply.


    Merton nodded and said, "not only people, but also hundreds of schools. Each of us adheres to his own theory, just like a hedgehog. If the two families are too close, they will quarrel and stab each other. No matter which theory is difficult to support, it needs a hundred schools to unite to explore the endless ocean of knowledge."


    "Master speaks highly, disciple understands." Wu Meiniang has an understanding. Mohism and all schools of thought hurt each other like hedgehogs. Some of them can''t live without each other. However, it''s not the case between the three veins of Mohism. Maybe it''s right to keep a distance like this.


    Merton looked at the thoughtful Wu Meiniang and said, "since I have taught you the theory of distance of Mohism, I will assign you a task."


    "Ah!" Wu Meiniang suddenly looked bitter. Unexpectedly, in the end, the master buried a big pit.


    "Why, I don''t want to?" Morton snorted coldly. Although he assigned tasks several times ago, Wu Meiniang made a lot of opportunism with the help of Princess Changle. I''m afraid no one helped her this time.


    "Please tell me, even if I go through fire and water." Wu Meiniang looked like she would fight and punish.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction, picked up a three foot long wooden ruler used by the Mohist children and said, "the ruler is the most accurate distance to measure the distance. Every Mohist child can''t leave his hand."


    Wu Meiniang nodded solemnly.


    "As a teacher, you are required to make a ruler, which must be accurate to centigrade, and the length can be measured at least one foot." Merton asked.


    The size units of this era are: one foot, ten inches, ten cents, ten cents. He found that the rulers of this era are too simple. Although the rulers are accurate, the accuracy is not enough. Most of them are accurate to the point, which is the limit. One point is equivalent to three centimeters in future generations. When working, they must rely on the skills of skilled craftsmen to ensure the accuracy, If we can achieve the maximum accuracy, he believes that the children of Mohism will be greatly convenient, and there will be more skilled craftsmen.


    "Don''t worry, master. I''m sure I can finish it." Wu Meiniang said excitedly. At the same time, she couldn''t help being suspicious. This time, the schoolwork is too simple!


    Sure enough, Merton frowned solemnly and said, "I think this ruler is too long to carry."


    Wu Meiniang nodded deeply. She was also very dissatisfied with the commonly used ruler, which was always in the way.


    "If even the three inch ruler is so cumbersome, if you make a ten foot ruler and let the children of Mohism hold it every day, wouldn''t Mohism become the laughing stock of hundreds of families?" Merton asked.


    "Ah!" Wu Meiniang was stunned there. She realized this problem. The excitement just now had already disappeared.


    "Therefore, as a teacher, I require this ruler to be easy to use and carry with one hand. This is your real homework!" Merton solemnly said.


    "How is this possible?" Wu Meiniang almost jumped up without hurry. She was clearly a ruler ten feet long, but she asked to control it with one hand. She thought it impossible.


    Merton immediately showed a proud smile and said, "this is a good thing for the children of Mohism. As a master sister of Mohism, don''t you think you have the responsibility to do it well?"


    "But the master also said that distance is immutable. How can a ruler of one Zhang be only as big as a palm?" Wu Meiniang said anxiously.


    "Then you need to use your brain. Don''t worry. This time, you and my teachers and disciples will make it together like making a mirror. How about a try?" Merton Lang said.


    Wu Meiniang was moved. Since the master also made such a ruler himself, it showed that it was feasible. Last time, Merton personally led her to point out the principle of making mirrors. However, this time, I''m afraid she had to do it by herself.


    "Yes, disciple!" Wu Meiniang said solemnly with an unyielding momentum.

 Chapter 820

    When Merton gave his apprenticeship, he was in broad daylight and did not avoid anyone. Naturally, many people listened to the public lectures of the Mohist school. After Wu Meiniang left, the news of the apprenticeship by the Qujiang bridge of the Mohist school immediately spread all over Chang''an city.


    "The Mo family taught disciples?"


    People from all walks of life in Chang''an city are very interested. It can be said that the reputation of Mohist school is famous in Chang''an city. The endless emergence of Mohist skills has created the name of Mohist school. If ordinary people can learn half of his moves, they may benefit for life. Suddenly, many people have inquired about the content of Mohist School''s apprenticeship.


    "The way of distance."


    "The method of burning water!"


    "Heat expansion and cold contraction!"


    "Hedgehog rule!"


    "Accurate, portable ruler as schoolwork!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the passage of time, the classic contents of the disciples of Mohists spread all over Chang''an City, and the whole Chang''an city was amazed.


    They all shouted and enjoyed themselves. Indeed, the Mohist school did not disappoint them. Even the content of teaching disciples was so wonderful. It not only opened their eyes, but also was educational and interesting. It was easy to understand. Both ordinary people and those who were proficient in poetry and books could understand it and gain a lot.


    "At the beginning, when the Mohist family was weak, a 10-year-old girl was accepted as the first disciple of the Mohist family, which almost became a laughing stock in Chang''an city. Everyone thought that the Mohist family was not worthy of being a teacher, but now it seems that no one in the world can match such teaching quality." an old man lamented in Chang''an city.


    He has been engaged in teaching all his life. Under his guidance, he has come out with excellent students one by one. However, he can''t help being impressed by the teaching content of mojiazi.


    From the measurement of macro distance, to the application of onlooker distance, and then to the study of human distance, it is a wonderful teaching, not to mention a course destined to benefit the world, which adds a bit of interest and significance to this course.


    "Now we envy Wu Meiniang. How lucky a ten-year-old girl can get such a famous teacher!" a young man said with envy.


    Famous teachers are hard to find! This is recognized by the world. In addition, after several lectures by Mohist Zi, it is more realistic that Mohist Zi is qualified to be a teacher. However, such good resources of Mohist school are occupied by a little girl, which makes some pretentious people in the world feel embarrassed.


    "What about women? The Mohist family has publicly stated that women can also run the Mohist family." a woman refused.


    "Female master Mohism, how can it be?" the young man shook his head and laughed.


    "How impossible? How can we see through the actions of the Mo family!" the old man shook his head.


    Everyone could not help a moment of silence. Looking at the actions of the Mohist family, they were almost different from the world. However, every time they surprised the world. This time, the Mohist family chose a woman as its successor, which made everyone feel impossible. However, according to the past deeds of the Mohist family, nothing seems impossible in the hands of the Mohist family.


    The people in Chang''an City talked about the teaching contents of Mohist masters and disciples, which naturally spread to Li Yun''s ears.


    "Is it possible that Xiangli''s pulse should be reduced to a woman''s control." the old servant standing next to Li Yun said with a surprised and angry face.


    In his opinion, the Mohist family specialized in Mohist ink technology has deviated from the concept of ancient Mohism. At the moment, it is even more shocking that the Mohist family is ready to inherit Xiangli''s pulse into the hands of a woman. Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for a woman to take charge of the Mohist family, and the Mohist family is afraid to risk universal condemnation.


    "The Mohist school is just a weak year, and Wu Meiniang is just a child. I''m afraid it''s too early to draw a conclusion now." Li Yun shook his head.


    The old servant snorted coldly, "it''s too early. Just look at the teaching content of the Mohist school. It''s not a plan to carefully train successors. I''m afraid it''s eight or nine."


    Li Yun shook his head and said, "even if a woman is allowed to take charge of the Mohist village, it''s also a Mohist problem. What does it have to do with us?"


    The old servant looked at Li Yun with an incredible look on his face and said in a harsh voice: "young master, how can we say that the Mojia village is also a chain of Mojia Xiangli. If a woman is in charge, it will increase the laughing stock of our Mojia disciples. How can we sit idly by?"


    "It seems that you don''t understand. Mozi compares a hundred schools with hedgehogs. It can be said that it has great meaning. Whether it is a hundred schools or the three veins of Mozi, we are all hedgehogs with thorns. If you rashly intervene in the internal affairs of Mozi village, I''m afraid you will meet sharp spikes." Li Yun said with deep eyes.


    The old servant was stunned. He suddenly woke up and flattered. I''m afraid any one hundred families will fight back if they are directly involved in the next leader.


    "Compared with the successor of Mojia village, I pay more attention to heat expansion and cold contraction." Li Yun took a deep breath.


    The method of fire and water is a common stone taking method used by craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty. However, no one in the world thought that mojiazi had cracked the principle behind it and used it in the bridge. It was a genius idea.


    The old servant disagreed and said, "don''t worry, young master. The concrete bridge deck of mojiazi''s beam bridge is like a whole. Naturally, you should be prepared for thermal expansion and cold contraction. The arch bridge built by young master is built of huge stones. You don''t have to worry about this problem at all."


    "That''s our luck, but we just hit the right one. We only know that there will be no problem with this arch bridge, but we don''t know why. Only when mojiazi solved the heat expansion and cold contraction, did he solve all the confusion." Li Yun was worried that if mojiazi didn''t solve the heat expansion and cold contraction today, he would be in a muddle all his life, And I don''t know why.


    The old servants could not help but be silent. After generations of practice, they decided to build an arch bridge without accident, but they didn''t know that there was a hidden truth in it.


    "Besides, I''m a little interested in mojiazi''s schoolwork." Li Yun picked up a three foot long wooden ruler and said with great interest.


    The wooden ruler is something that the Mohist children must master, and Li Yun is no exception. In addition, he agrees with the Mohist idea very much. Such a three foot long wooden ruler is not only not long enough, the accuracy is not high, but also extremely inconvenient to use. If there is a ruler called by the Mohist, I''m afraid it will be the gospel of the Mohist children all over the world.


    What really attracted him was that Mohist Zi also participated in the production of this ruler. He had from cracking the reward offered by Mohist Zi to jointly competing to build the bridge. Now he has fallen into the disadvantage in two competitions. This time, he must surprise Mohist Zi and really beat Mohist Zi once.


    "How many days before the bridge inspection!" Li Yun asked solemnly.


    The old servant calculated and said, "back to young master, the arch bridge has just been completed. I''m afraid it will take ten days to complete."


    Although the arch bridge has been completed, there is still a lot of finishing work, and ten more days to make the arch bridge completely solidified, it will become more unbreakable.


    Li Yun nodded. Ten days is also the time for mojiazi to ask Wu Meiniang for schoolwork. At the moment, the finishing work doesn''t need his personal supervision. Just taking this opportunity, he couldn''t help thinking of competing with mojiazi again.


    Of course, his goal is not to surpass Wu Meiniang, but to surpass the ruler made by Mozi. Now Li Yun nodded and said, "send a letter to Mozi and tell him that in ten days, we will test the bridge at the same time and score a point."


    Of course, what he said is not only the dispute between beam bridge and arch bridge, but also the dispute between wooden feet.

 Chapter 821

    "Accurate to centigrade!" Li Yun took a deep breath and began to calm down and start measuring.


    For the accuracy required by Mohist ruler, he has a great feeling of confidant. The more skillful he is, the more demanding he is for accuracy.


    This is not a simple statement, especially for difficult projects such as the construction of arch bridges, which have high requirements for the accuracy of measurement, and often a small mistake will cause disastrous losses. Even if the craftsman has accurately measured it, he still measures it in person, which is reassuring and ensures the quality of the arch bridge.


    One foot equals ten feet, one foot equals ten inches, and one inch equals ten. Li Yun repeatedly determined that he did not dare to be careless, and tried to be extremely accurate.


    "One point equals ten li!" however, when Li Yun was accurate to Li Li, he was stunned, because the Tang Dynasty was divided into large ruler and small ruler. Li Yun''s standard was large ruler. Rao''s one point of such a large ruler was only equivalent to about three to four millimeters in later generations. Such a short distance could not be accurate to 10 Li at all.


    "Sure enough, it''s not that simple!" Li Yun sighed in his heart. He knew that the problem of Mohism was not so simple. It was impossible to be accurate to 10%. Even if it was forcibly divided, I''m afraid it would destroy the ruler and can''t see the scale clearly.


    "Zi Mozi said: middle, the same length. Since there is no way to be accurate to every centimeter, but it can be accurate to the fifth centimeter." Li Yunling''s machine moved, as long as it is accurate to the fifth centimeter, if you need more accurate scale, you can visually measure the closest length.


    When he personally engraved the fifth percentile mark in the middle of each inch, he looked at the precise scales, and his heart was suddenly filled with pride. This was the ruler with the highest accuracy he had ever used.


    This ruler can be said to be priceless for the children of Mohism. With such an accurate ruler, he can accurately measure all things in the world. There is a feeling in his heart that everything in the world is clear in his heart and lies between sizes.


    "The next is the most important step, which is to let the wooden ruler be controlled by one hand." Li Yun looked at the wooden ruler much higher than him and couldn''t help falling into meditation. Two of the three requirements have been completed, and the rest is the most difficult part. How to make a Zhang long wooden ruler controlled by one hand, Li Yun looked at the Zhang long wooden ruler in front of him and fell into deep distress.


    Originally, when he was holding a three foot long wooden ruler, he didn''t think the course was very difficult. However, when a ten foot long wooden ruler was placed in front of him, it made him solemn.


    To tell the truth, a ten foot long wooden ruler is very common in practical use. When measuring some large objects, he needs such a long wooden ruler. Originally, he didn''t feel anything. However, when he combined the requirements of Mohist school, he found how convenient it would be if he really made the ruler that Mohist School said.


    "How did the Mo family do it!" however, after a long time, Li Yun still had no clue. No matter how hard he thought, he couldn''t think of how to turn a ruler one foot long into a palm.


    "Young master, in my opinion, it must be the Mohist school who is talking nonsense. He himself admitted in public that distance is immutable. How can a ruler of one foot long become a slap in the face?" the old servant comforted.


    Li Yun shook his head dejectedly and said, "although mojiazi said that the distance is immutable, we have changed the current situation and changed the distance. Those who detour can build bridges and roads, and those who go a long way can speed up cars and horses to drive a longer road in a shorter time. So is the intention of mojiazi!"


    The old servant couldn''t help but acquiesce, and didn''t know how to comfort Li Yun. After all, since Mohist Zi had given his apprentice a question, he must have had an abdominal manuscript in his heart.


    However, after a long time, Li Yun still had no clue. According to his knowledge, there was no way to do it.


    "It seems that I''m still too conceited. I thought I could compete with Mozi. Now it seems that even Mozi''s disciples may not be able to win." Li Yunyue thought more and more angry. He couldn''t help getting angry and angrily threw the made wooden ruler on the ground.


    The wooden ruler is a foot long. It is made of thin and long wood. It was heavily thrown to the ground and directly broke into several pieces.


    The old servant said sadly, "this is a wooden ruler made by the young master with great efforts!"


    Li Yun spent so much effort on the wooden ruler. He looked at it and saw that the wooden ruler was completely destroyed. He couldn''t help but bend over and pick up the broken wooden ruler on the ground one by one.


    There were a lot of broken wooden rulers. When the old servant picked up a few, his hands couldn''t take them down. Finally, he had to stack the wooden rulers in his hands and continue to pick up the remaining broken wooden rulers.


    However, the old servant didn''t see it. When Li Yun''s decadent eyes inadvertently saw the wooden ruler stacked together, he suddenly rose up and his eyes were suddenly bright.


    "Hahaha, I understand. I finally solved the problem of Mohism." Li Yun suddenly laughed like crazy.


    "Young master! What''s the matter?" the old servant quickly got up and looked at the crazy young master in horror.


    However, Li Yun ignored the old servant at all. Instead, he directly picked up a long broken wooden ruler and snapped it again.


    In the worried eyes of the old servant, Li Yun stacked pieces of broken wooden ruler in his hand. He saw that the one foot long wooden ruler was only as wide as the palm.


    "The young master means to cut a ten foot long wooden ruler into small sections?" the old servant suddenly realized Li Yun''s intention.


    Li Yun nodded proudly and said, "yes, although the ruler is long, it is about five centimeters thick. If we cut a Zhang long wooden ruler into half a foot long, it will only be an inch wide. Only in this way can we make a Zhang long ruler between our fingers and palms."


    "But in this way, it''s more troublesome to use such wooden rulers one by one. I''m afraid they are no longer accurate." the old servant shook his head. When measuring an object, it is very troublesome to spread it with a wooden ruler section by section. If you accidentally move a wooden ruler, the length is no longer accurate.


    Li Yun laughed and said, "what''s the difficulty? We just need to build a ''bridge'' between the two wooden blocks, connect the two halves of the ruler with rivets, and connect it like a chain."


    Li Yun said on his mouth, picked up two small pieces of wooden ruler in his hand, pinched the tail with his fingers, and flexibly moved the two halves of wooden ruler back and forth.


    The old servant immediately brightened his eyes and exclaimed, "young master is really smart. He has solved the problem of Mohist school so easily."


    Li Yun couldn''t help showing a trace of pride, but then sighed: "craftsmen in the world don''t know how many people are used to using three foot wooden ruler. Only Mozi is dissatisfied with three foot wooden ruler. We all think Mozi is picky. Now we know that as long as we have a heart, everything in the world is not difficult.


    "Once such a wooden ruler comes out, it must be the gospel of craftsmen all over the world. Please give it a name," the old servant said with a pleased face.


    "Since these wooden rulers can fold each other, how about calling them folding rulers?" Li Yun said in his heart.

 Chapter 822

    "It seems that the master''s anger still hasn''t subsided!" Wu Meiniang looked at the narrow distance in her hand and said in distress. She naturally encountered the same problem as Li Yun. The distance of one point is too short. It can''t be divided into ten.


    Since she couldn''t clearly divide ten percent, Wu Meiniang had an idea and quickly thought of the same method as Li Yun. She went directly to the midpoint between one point and marked the fifth percent.


    "Master, do you think this can help me?" Wu Meiniang said proudly on her face.


    However, soon she couldn''t laugh. She encountered the same problem that made Li Yun crazy. How to turn a Zhang long wooden ruler into one hand.


    "How is this possible?" Wu Meiniang''s scalp exploded.


    How can you change a foot into the size of a palm? Wu Meiniang couldn''t figure out how to do this, but she had an end of refusing to admit defeat. She locked herself in the room again and again and kept experimenting. Unfortunately, she failed again and again.


    However, Merton saw all this in front of her and didn''t provide her with any help at all. Wu Meiniang groped there alone.


    "Is it too difficult for you to give Meiniang such a task!" Princess Changle stood beside Merton with worry.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the suffering faced by Mojia village in the future is much more difficult than now. If this problem can not be solved, how to take charge of Mojia village in the future."


    Princess Changle could not help sighing. The world guessed that Wu Meiniang would be in charge of the Mojia village in the future. Only princess Changle saw everything in her eyes. Merton never lied and trained Wu Meiniang as a successor from the beginning.


    "This time, Shiniang can''t help you?" Princess Changle looked at Wu Meiniang with no distractions and sighed helplessly.


    Soon, the whole ink house knew Wu Meiniang''s problems. They wanted to help each other, but they were powerless. Finally, they had to take good care of Wu Meiniang as much as possible.


    "Mei Niang, have a cup of tea!" Fubo put a cup of freshly brewed tea next to Wu Mei Niang.


    Wu Mei Niang nodded without raising her head. She picked up the steaming tea and was ready to pour it in her mouth. Fubo quickly stopped. When the tea was cold, she watched Wu Mei Niang drink it and shook her head and left.


    "Meiniang, have a meal!" aunt fish had already been ordered by Fubo and waited until the food was not hot before she brought it up. And directly abandoned her best fish soup to prevent Wu Meiniang from being caught by fish bones.


    "Thank you, aunt fish!" Wu Meiniang finished the meal and continued to experiment.


    "Meiniang, it''s time to rest!" Ziyi advised Wu Meiniang again. Wu Meiniang reluctantly put down her schoolwork and fell asleep for two hours. She suddenly got up and thought hard again.


    For several days, Wu Meiniang was at a loss and still had no clue about Merton''s schoolwork.


    At this time, aunt Xu came in and saw Wu Meiniang, who was still intoxicated, distressed and said, "Meiniang, take a break first. It''s going to summer. Let aunt Xu make some new summer clothes for you!"


    Wu Meiniang is smart and lively. Everyone loves her in the ink house. Aunt Xu came to help Wu Meiniang make summer clothes this time. On the one hand, she was growing up. She couldn''t wear last year''s clothes. On the other hand, she took the opportunity to have a rest.


    "Thank you, aunt Xu!"


    Wu Mei Niang just raised her head, recovered from her hard thinking, got up skillfully and let aunt Xu measure her body.


    "Meiniang, you''ve really grown a lot taller?" aunt Xu said with admiration as she measured.


    Wu Meiniang has been living in the Mo mansion since she became a teacher of Merton. Without the harsh treatment in the Wu mansion before, her body grows very fast.


    "Waist one and a half feet!"


    Aunt Xu took a soft rope in her hand and measured it skillfully on Wu Meiniang''s waist. After holding the soft rope and comparing it on the ruler, she solemnly reported a data.


    Next, aunt Xu continued to be busy, measuring her legs, ankles, arms and neck circumference one by one. Since Merton made T-shirts, belts, trousers and other common clothes of later generations, the garment industry in Chang''an city immediately set off a trend of new garment making. The new garment making method of accurate measurement and fitting clothes, especially women''s figure, was rapidly promoted.


    This new style of clothes, collectively known as ink clothes, is far more popular than the previous wide clothes, and is rapidly occupying the market.


    Of course, the most staunch supporter of ink clothes is Mojia village. All Mohists take the lead in wearing convenient and comfortable ink clothes. In this storm of ink clothes, aunt Xu, the imperial tailor of Merton, undoubtedly, whenever aunt Xu cuts an ink dress, it will always attract people''s pursuit.


    Aunt Xu carefully measured Wu Meiniang''s figure, but she didn''t find that Wu Meiniang''s eyes were staring at the long rope wrapped around her body.


    "Master, I finally understand!" Wu Meiniang burst into tears of joy. A Zhang long wooden ruler naturally can''t be folded, but if the material used to make the ruler becomes soft, can''t you easily hold a Zhang long ruler between your palms.


    "What''s the matter with the child?" aunt Xu quickly comforted Wu Meiniang when she saw her tears.


    Although Wu Meiniang was still a teenager, she quickly controlled her emotions. He quickly wiped away his tears, burst into tears and said with a smile, "thank you, aunt Xu. When I make an accurate and soft ruler, aunt Xu won''t have to take so much trouble."


    "Aunt Xu is waiting for the good news from Meiniang." aunt Xu said with a pleased face.


    After Wu Meiniang had the inspiration, she was in high spirits. She was in the Mohist village. It can be said that she was extremely favored. Wherever she went, she would naturally echo.


    "I want the best and tightest cloth rope, and I want to weave it into a finger wide and five centimeter thick strip rope." Wu Meiniang asked Mojia village directly.


    Naturally, Mojia village has heard of Merton''s schoolwork. After hearing Wu Meiniang''s orders, they immediately brainstormed. In only one day, several ten foot long cloth ropes have been sent to Wu Meiniang.


    Wu Meiniang looked at the cloth rope in front of her and nodded with satisfaction. Under the superb technology of Mojia village, the cloth rope was extremely fine, and the softness was moderate, which was very in line with her requirements.


    Later, Wu Meiniang took the cloth rope and directly killed the ink magazine. She asked the ink three: "third uncle, I want the best ink for the ink magazine."


    For Wu Meiniang''s request, Mo San naturally met it without doubt.


    Various conditions have been met. Soon, a cloth ruler, one foot long and accurate to one centimeter, rolled up and just held in one palm, appeared in front of Wu Meiniang.


    "Meiniang, you''re so powerful! This time you''ll impress the young master." aunt Xu happily holds this cloth ruler. She usually measures clothes with a long rope and then measures the data with a wooden ruler. With this soft cloth ruler, she can easily measure clothes and don''t have to worry about making mistakes any more.


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help showing a proud expression, but she didn''t relax. Instead, she shook her head and said, "such a cloth ruler is very convenient for Aunt Xu. However, for the children of Mohism, there are still some troubles. Meiniang needs to make another improvement."


    In aunt Xu''s surprised eyes, Wu Meiniang will take out a palm sized wooden box, fix one end of the cloth ruler in the wooden box, and then close the wooden box tightly.


    I saw a small handle on one side of the wooden box. With Wu Meiniang gently shaking the handle, a Zhang long wooden ruler was slowly included in the wooden box.


    As Wu Meiniang stuck the end of the cloth rope at the exit, a palm size, accurate to centigrade, a ten foot long ruler was finally made.


    "This is my schoolwork, tape measure!" Wu Meiniang said proudly.

 Chapter 823

    The tenth day!


    Both sides of the Qujiang River have long been full of people, and the news of the two pulse competition of the Mohist school has spread all over Chang''an city.


    One is the famous Mohist family in Chang''an City, and the other is the descendant of Li Chun of Zhaozhou Bridge. Coupled with the gratitude and resentment of Mohist family, it has aroused the desire of people in Chang''an to gossip. Many people came to watch the excitement early in the morning.


    "During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, Mohism was divided into three parts, among which Xiang Li''s family came into Qin and helped Qin to unify the world, which was called Qin mo. Mohist village was the offspring of Qin Mo in those years. Most of the forces of Xiang Fu''s family were Qi people, who gathered in Jixia school palace and called it Qi mo. Li Chun''s family was the offspring of Qi Mo in those years..." a white haired carpenter was very familiar with Mohism, Proud to popularize the gratitude and resentment between the two veins of Mohism to the public, the two veins of Mohism compare their skills in public, which naturally attracts countless skilled craftsmen to watch.


    "I see!" the crowd suddenly.


    "But it''s reasonable to say that the two veins are connected with each other. Why should we fight like this?" a young man didn''t understand.


    "On the one hand, the two veins have different ideas. On the other hand, Qin Mo helped Qin, but destroyed Qi. The gratitude and resentment of the two veins have long been buried." the white haired carpenter regretted. In his opinion, the gradual decline of Mohism after the pre-Qin period is also related to the division of Mohism.


    "Oh!" then they cleared up the gratitude and resentment of Mohism and looked at the two bridges over Qujiang with surprised eyes. Perhaps the arch bridge and beam bridge represent the different ideas between the two veins.


    At the same time, Mohist Zi and Li Yun stood in the middle of the bridge. They stood near the river and faced each other across the river. They were full of pride. Today, the two veins of Mohism finally have to compete.


    "This is the bridge you built!"


    Princess Changle beside Merton couldn''t help touching the cold cement railing. The hard cement made people feel safe.


    Now, Princess Changle has a close eye on Merton. This time, Merton and Li Yun tried to test the bridge. Princess Changle volunteered to follow her, just like an ordinary husband and wife.


    Merton nodded proudly. The advent of Liangqiao is not only better than Xiangfu''s pulse, but also of great significance to the transportation industry of Datang and the four-wheel carriage business of Mojia village.


    "Send a message to the other side and start checking the bridge!" Merton waved his big hand. Xiangfu''s family has always called him a traitor to Mozi''s idea. Today, he will use his actions to prove who is the one behind this era.


    "Yes!" one of the Mohist children responded, turned over, mounted his horse and went to the direction of Qujiang arch bridge.


    "Here we go!" people on both sides of the Strait exclaimed when they saw the action of Mojia village.


    People looked one after another and saw a four-wheel truck loaded with goods coming from the south bank quickly under the traction of four horses. The carriage loaded with goods didn''t stop at all and quickly crossed the beam bridge.


    "Motionless!" many people near Liangqiao watched the carriage pass by. The bridge was motionless and breathed a long sigh of relief.


    Although the beam bridge built by mojiazi is highly praised in Chang''an City, there are widespread doubts about the bearing capacity of the beam bridge. After all, compared with the curved surface tension effect of the arch bridge, the of the beam bridge is really much worse, which has long been confirmed in the daily bridge maintenance. Ordinary beam bridges need to be rebuilt for more than ten years, while arch bridges can last for a hundred years, or even more.


    "The reinforced concrete beam bridge is really strong!" Princess Changle nodded. She has sufficient confidence in the beam bridge. On the one hand, she trusts her husband. On the other hand, she lives in a new house built of reinforced concrete. Naturally, she has a deep experience.


    Merton said proudly, "it''s just a five thousand pound four-wheel truck. It''s just an appetizer."


    Today, the largest carrying capacity of four-wheel trucks produced by Mohism is 5000 kg. The last Qujiang bridge was damaged by a four-wheel truck weighing 5000 kg. Now the bottom line of beam bridge test is naturally 5000 kg.


    Princess Changle suddenly brightened her eyes and looked forward to it.


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, two carriages with the same load of 5000 kg immediately set out opposite from both ends of the beam bridge. After the two carriages met in the middle of the beam bridge, they galloped past, and the beam bridge remained motionless.


    Although the people on both sides of the Strait marveled at this effect, they had been prepared for it. After all, the reputation of the Mohist school was ahead, and the sense of security given by such a thick column in Qujiang River reassured everyone,


    Only then did more than a dozen four-wheel carriages come one after another from both sides of the Strait. For a moment, more than a dozen four-wheel carriages flowed on the beam bridge, full of the bridge deck, and the bridge body was motionless, which caused people to nod again and again.


    In Chang''an City, it is already very busy, and Qujiang bridge is an important traffic road. The beam bridge can carry so many four-wheel carriages at the same time, which has perfectly met the needs of Chang''an city.


    "Come again!" Merton smiled inexplicably and waved his hand.


    In the surprised eyes of Princess Changle and the people on both sides of the Strait, the two carriages turned around and drove opposite again. However, this time, the two carriages stopped in the middle of the bridge when they met.


    "What''s the matter?" Princess Changle didn''t understand.


    Merton explained: "just now it''s just the normal traffic state of the beam bridge. If there is an accident on the beam bridge and a large number of cars and horses are blocked, this also needs to be considered."


    Princess Changle nodded thoughtfully and looked up. She saw a full load of four-wheel trucks coming from both sides of the Strait and driving on the bridge deck until the whole bridge deck was filled.


    "Wow!" the people on both sides of the Strait couldn''t help exclaiming. They carefully counted the number of four-wheel carriages on the bridge and found that there were nearly 15. According to the carrying capacity of each five thousand kilograms, plus the weight of the carriage, I''m afraid it weighed 100000 kilograms.


    "Bearing 100000 Jin!" the people were shocked by the shocking figure and couldn''t help shouting again and again.


    "I''m afraid this will be the strongest bridge in the world." Princess Changle couldn''t help sighing. I''m afraid there is no bridge in the world that can bear 100000 kilograms.


    "Qujiang arch bridge also bears 100000 kg!"


    Without waiting for Princess Changle to sigh, another news came, refreshing her concept. Unexpectedly, there are two bridges in the world that can bear 100000 kg at the same time.


    "The two veins of Mohism are really extraordinary!"


    Among the crowd on the north bank, Gongshu Hong sighed a long sigh and followed a group of public losers'' children behind him. Gongshu and Mohism are old rivals. Now the two veins of Mohism are competing, how can Gongshu miss it.


    Seeing the amazing skills of the two veins of the Mohist school, the sons of the public losers were silent one after another. Not to mention the booming Mohist school, they were still impressed by the knowledge and skills displayed by Li Yun.


    At the same time, on the arch bridge, Li Yun naturally got the news that the beam bridge built in Mojia village also bears 100000 kg. At present, he couldn''t help but sink in his heart. In terms of bearing, the arch bridge has unique advantages. To his surprise, this unknown beam bridge plays an incredible role in the hands of Mojia Zi.

 Chapter 824

    "Hum! It''s just a mere five thousand kilograms of weight accumulation, which is not enough to really reflect the advantages of the arch bridge?" the old servant on one side snorted coldly.


    Li Yun nodded. Although bearing 100000 kg is enough for daily use, what they need now is a higher level. Of course, the bearing of 100000 kg is not the limit of the arch bridge. He must be dissatisfied with it.


    Moreover, the weight of 100000 kg is evenly distributed on the whole bridge, which is not too difficult for a bridge, and the real test of the bearing capacity of the bridge is the single overweight carriage.


    "Overweight!" Li Yun shouted with firm eyes.


    "Yes!" the old servant nodded excitedly and immediately commanded the craftsman to pull out a special four-wheel carriage. The four-wheel carriage has eight wheels, which imitates the style of the military carriage and has strong gravity.


    This time, however, in order to increase the weight of the carriage, Li Yun directly used heavier iron tins. Li Yun put a full 20 pieces of iron tins of 1000 kg each.


    "Twenty thousand kilograms of bicycle!"


    Li Yun looked at the special vehicle and couldn''t help being heroic. This time, he must prove it for himself with practical actions.


    "Drive!" with the craftsman''s clear drink. The carriage started slowly and went straight to the arch bridge.


    "Such a big carriage!"


    When the huge carriage passed the arch bridge smoothly, the people on both sides immediately caused a sensation.


    The public losers on the shore couldn''t help but take a breath. They naturally knew that the test of the bridge was much more difficult than the even distribution of more than a dozen carriages of 5000 kg on the arch bridge.


    "Xiangfu''s pulse!" Gong Shuhong said in his eyes.


    However, this is not the limit of the arch bridge. Then, at the order of Li Yun, the iron tin continued to increase, with 30000 kg and 50000 kg of bicycles until 80000 kg.


    Moreover, this is not that the arch bridge built by Li Yun can''t bear more load, but the weight of 90000 kg. Even the four-wheel carriage specially made by Li Yun can''t bear it. In addition, although the arch bridge is good, it has a certain slope after all. Even if it has been pulled by 16 horses, it still can''t pass through the arch bridge.


    "80000 kg of bicycle!"


    The people on both sides of the Strait were in an uproar. It was the first time they heard such a crazy bridge inspection method. The sons of the public losers in the crowd took a breath one by one. They have to know more than ordinary people. Naturally, they know how difficult it is for a bridge to bear the weight of 80000 kg of a bicycle. On this alone, the public loser''s craft can never do it.


    "80000 Jin!" Princess Changle was shocked when she heard the report from the children of the Mohists. She couldn''t help looking at Merton. She had to say that the news of 80000 Jin of a bicycle was too shocking. This is an unprecedented crazy way to test the bridge.


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help sighing in his heart. Xiangfu''s pulse was indeed extraordinary, and this is also the reason why the carriage can''t bear too much. If it is like the power of later generations, the number of load-bearing of the arch bridge may be much higher.


    "It''s just a trifle, trust your husband!" Merton patted the catkin of Princess Changle and said confidently.


    In an instant, Princess Changle''s worry disappeared. Whenever Merton showed this smile, she felt inexplicably at ease and had only trust in Merton.


    "Let''s start!" Merton vomited heavily. Since Li Yun had made a move, he naturally wanted to see the move.


    "Yes, young master!" a boy of Mohism took orders and hurried away immediately.


    After a while, there was a terrible noise from the south bank, which made everyone look at it. Soon, the noise became louder and louder. In the sight, a giant slowly appeared in front of everyone.


    "This is a bridge erecting machine!" the sharp eyed public loser Hao stretched his neck and said in horror. The children of other public losers nodded heavily. When the Mohist school laid the beam bridge, the bridge erecting machine can be said to have caused a sensation in the world of craftsmen in Chang''an city. Almost all craftsmen came to visit the largest machinery in Chinese history.


    "Wow!" the people on both sides of the Strait were shocked one after another.


    When the majestic bridge erecting machine appeared in front of the living people again, the shock in the hearts of the people did not decrease at all. After all, it represents the most powerful force in human history.


    "By the way, isn''t the girder bridge finished? Why does mojiazi use the bridge erecting machine again?" Gongshu Hao didn''t understand.


    On one side, Gongshu Hong looked at the bridge erecting machine like an iron beast and said with a bitter smile: "only when you are strong can you lift heavy objects. The bridge erecting machine can lift huge beams. Its own weight can be imagined. Although you don''t know the specific weight, it definitely exceeds 80000 kg."


    Public loser Hao suddenly realized: "Mohists want to use the weight of the bridge erecting machine to correct the name of the beam bridge."


    Gongshu Hong nodded heavily and said, "in addition, there is another significance of mojiazi''s move, that is, the purpose of bridge construction is to make the world unobstructed. I''m afraid the largest and heaviest vehicle in the world is the bridge erecting machine. Undoubtedly, if the bridge erecting machine can pass through the beam bridge smoothly, it will prove that the beam bridge can meet any traffic needs in the world."


    The sons of public losers nodded one after another. If the bridge erecting machine can pass the beam bridge today, there will be no doubt about the beam bridge in the world.


    In full view of the public, Wu Meiniang sat on the bridge erecting machine and kept giving orders to the Mohist children. Under the command of Wu Meiniang, the bridge erecting machine drove smoothly into the beam bridge.


    "The bridge is all right?"


    "Unexpectedly, a girl is directing."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Among the crowd, seeing the slowly moving bridge erecting machine on the beam bridge, he exclaimed.


    "That girl is an apprentice of the Mohist school!" some people exclaimed when they saw Wu Meiniang''s experience of directing the bridge erecting machine to lay the beam bridge.


    "Disciple of Mohist school!" Gongshu Hong couldn''t help glancing at his son next to him. He has been committed to cultivating his son into talent, but now it seems that his son may not be comparable to the female disciple of Mohist school.


    In Wu Meiniang''s hands, such a huge monster is like a superstar toy, while her son is obsessed with small locks, and the pattern has been too different.


    When the bridge erecting machine appeared, it was immediately called the focus of the whole audience, and Wu Meiniang, who commanded the bridge erecting machine, was like a pearl on the crown, especially eye-catching.


    Everyone held their breath and stared at the girder bridge and the bridge erecting machine on the bridge deck. Time became solidified. The people on both sides couldn''t help but rejoice for each minute of the bridge erecting machine. Until the huge bridge erecting machine passed the girder bridge smoothly, the people on both sides instantly boiling.


    "Good!" the people on both sides cheered almost at the same time.


    Cheers continued to spread directly to the arch bridge. Li Yun on the arch bridge felt that if he lost, although the load-bearing of his arch bridge had not reached the limit, the slope of the arch bridge had limited that the arch bridge could not pass through too heavy carriages, while the beam bridge was not. It was like a flat ground. As long as the horsepower was enough, even heavy goods could pass easily.


    "I lost!"


    Li Yun said dejectedly.


    His failure this time was not because he lost to the Mexican family again, but the arch bridge, which his predecessor Li Chun was proud of, also lost to the unknown beam bridge.


    After that, the curtain of China''s enduring arch bridge will come to an end, and the beam bridge with convenient erection, amazing load-carrying capacity, flat and easy access will become the most dazzling star in the bridge industry of the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 825

    The onlookers were surprised to see this result, but it was reasonable. From the moment the mojiazi stepped into Chang''an City, he never let the people of Chang''an down.


    People naturally believe that mojiazi''s construction of the beam bridge will not disappoint them, but they did not expect that the final result would be so shocking. In the hands of mojiazi, the originally unknown beam bridge pressed all the bridges in the Tang Dynasty overnight and became the first bridge in the world.


    "It seems that I will take the beam bridge in the future!" a coachman thought.


    Although he is closer to the arch bridge, the girder bridge has a flat body and is more convenient to pass. The carriage pulling goods is like flat ground, which is not laborious at all. In fact, it is the best choice for vehicles and horses to pass. As for the arch bridge, it does not mean that no one will go anymore. When there are few goods or empty cars, it is not impossible to choose the arch bridge and take fewer detours.


    Even ordinary people are curious about the new beam bridge. You know, Qujiang beam bridge is now the only bridge in the Tang Dynasty, and it is the only bridge in the world. How can ordinary people not be curious? They have long been rubbing their hands and ready to go to the beam bridge to see the style after it is over.


    Merton naturally knew everyone''s mind. Seeing that the bridge inspection was over and was about to leave, suddenly an unexpected voice sounded.


    "I wonder if Li can personally see the grand occasion of the beam bridge, which also convinced Li."


    The crowd was stunned and looked sideways.


    "Li Yun!"


    "Xiangfu''s pulse!"


    The crowd was surprised to see the speaker. No one thought it was Li Yun, who was in the same vein as the Xiangfu family who competed with the Mo family.


    Facing the surprised eyes of the people, Li Yun did not shrink back at all. Although he lost, he has devoted himself to the cause of bridges for generations. Now he is trying to suppress the beam bridges of all arch bridges in Datang. If he misses it, it will be a lifelong regret.


    "Xiangfu''s pulse is really good. Liangqiao was born. I want to have a look at it. Please agree with mohou." Gongshu Hong laughed and said in a loud voice.


    "Public loser!" Li Yun could not help shrinking his eyes.


    Compared with Merton''s intention to turn war into friendship with the public losers, the more traditional Xiangfu family began to remember the gratitude and resentment between the Mohists and the public losers. However, now the Mohist village has been in harmony with the public losers, and Li Yun will not fight with the public losers alone.


    Merton didn''t think so. He stretched out his hand and said, "this is the honor of Mojia village!"


    At present, Merton personally led Li Yun and Gong Shuhong to visit the Liangqiao bridge. Both of them are craftsmen and masters. Naturally, they understand the essence of the bridge without anyone else''s explanation.


    The premise of beam bridge construction is the use of reinforced cement, and the real core is the secret technology of building piers in the water, and the finishing touch is the application of bridge erecting machine. Coupled with the embellishment of the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction, this beam bridge adds a bit of legend.


    Li Yun can imagine that once Mojia village builds huge piers in the river, no matter how wide the river is, it can conquer it. This time, Mojia village will not only win, but also rule the bridge industry in the future.


    Gong Shuhong was also shocked. As a craftsman, what he could value most was materials, and the new building materials such as cement opened his eyes. The Mohist School controlled this new material and was afraid to seize the opportunity again.


    However, it is said that this material was refined by the Taoist waidan sect entrusted by the Mohist school. Maybe he didn''t have a chance to obtain it. Gong Shuhong continued to investigate the Liangqiao bridge according to his restlessness.


    "The beam bridge is really extraordinary. I am convinced that I lost this time." Li Yun sighed in his heart. He naturally knew that the beam bridge has strong bearing capacity and the bridge deck is flat. In contrast, the arched arch bridge may withdraw from the stage of history.


    Merton shook his head and said: "although the beam bridge has obvious advantages, it is not without a trace of defects. One is the high cost. The cost of a beam bridge will be more than twice that of an arch bridge. The other is the short service life. A beam bridge has only a hundred years of service life, while arch bridges can be used everywhere for hundreds of years. It is not impossible to inherit thousands of years."


    "High cost and short service life!"


    Li Yun was stunned. Unexpectedly, Merton would take the initiative to expose his family''s ugliness and say the defects of the beam bridge.


    "There really is no perfect thing in the world, but a hundred years is enough." Gongshu Hong on the side also couldn''t help sighing. The service life of Datang arch bridge can be seen everywhere for hundreds of years. If it weren''t for the emergence of four-wheel trucks with a load of 5000 kg, the original Qujiang bridge might continue to exist. The advantages of the beam bridge are too great, and the defects don''t hide their shortcomings, In his view, the defect of a hundred years of life is nothing.


    "Brother Mo is honest, I admire him." Li Yun sighed. Merton''s ability to be honest about the defects of the beam bridge made Li Yun think highly of it.


    "You and I are all Mohist people. Although we have different ideas, we all carry forward the Mohist concept and treat each other honestly. This is what ordinary Mohist children can do. It''s nothing?" Merton said positively.


    When Li Yun heard the speech, he suddenly felt a sense of pride. Yes, as the children of Mohism, they really disdained to cheat. They couldn''t help but look at Merton again.


    The old servant on one side was worried for a while and shouted: "young master, don''t be deceived by Mohist Zi. Mohist Zi can even deceive monks who are good at talking, let alone you."


    However, in full view of the public, the old servant naturally couldn''t say anything. He had to be anxious and cough twice. When Li Yun heard the speech, he remembered that he had another thing to do when he came to the arch bridge. He pondered for a moment and said, "however, I heard that brother Mo and his disciples left a lesson on the bridge to jointly make a ruler for the benefit of craftsmen all over the world. I don''t know if it''s true?"


    "Yes, that''s right!" Merton looked at Li yundao puzzled.


    Li Yun took a deep breath: "Li is not talented. I''d like to compare with brother Mo again. In my spare time, I''ll also make a ruler and ask brother Mo for advice."


    Li Yun said that the clouds were light and the wind was light, as if he had solved the problem of Mohist school easily. Only the old servant on one side couldn''t help pumping out the corners of his mouth. He clearly remembered Li Yun''s embarrassed appearance at the beginning.


    "What?"


    The public losers on one side were shocked when they heard the speech. The news of Wu Meiniang taught by the Mo family naturally spread to the public losers. However, the public losers, including Gongshu Hong, racked their brains but still failed to crack it.


    But I didn''t expect to be cracked by Li Yun. Even if there was an evil spirit in the Mohist school, there was another Li Yun. How can we not make the public loser depressed.


    Gongshu Hong couldn''t help smiling bitterly. When it comes to rulers, Gongshu family can be said to be unique. Today, Lu Banchi, the most commonly used carpenter, is the masterpiece of Gongshu class, the ancestor of Gongshu family. It can be imagined that once Mohist family has such a convenient ruler as Mohist, Lu Banchi''s status will plummet.


    Gongshu Hong''s heart moved. Now this problem is the imagination of Mohist Zi. It must have a plan in mind. Now it has been solved by Li Yun. As for Wu Meiniang, who is only 11 years old, like Li Yun, he didn''t pay attention at all. He directly thinks that it must be a struggle between Li Yun and Mohist Zi.


    He was very happy to see the two veins of Mohism fighting again. At that time, Lang said: "the wooden ruler is the essence of craftsmen in the world, just like the pen in the scholar''s hand and the sword in the soldier''s hand. Mohism can make wooden ruler to facilitate craftsmen in the world. Gongloser wants to broaden his horizons and experience."


    Li Yun and Gongshu Hong attacked almost like a palace, which immediately made the whole scene stiff, and a group of Mohist children were like great enemies.

 Chapter 826

    However, no one saw a trace of pride on Wu Meiniang''s face behind Merton and jumped out: "martial uncle wants to compete with master, I''m afraid he has to pass Meiniang first."


    Li Yun and Gongshu Hong were stunned. No one thought that Wu Meiniang would come forward and take the initiative to represent the Mohist school at this time.


    "Could it be that..."


    The two looked at each other, and there was a possibility in both eyes that they had never thought of.


    "Could it be that this problem has been solved even by the female disciples of Mohist school?"


    Li Yun couldn''t help holding on to the folding ruler at his sleeve. He couldn''t help sighing. In his opinion, the only ruler that could meet the conditions of Mohist school was the folding ruler in his own hand. There was no other way. If he and Wu Meiniang had the same idea, he might only have a tie with Mohist''s Apprentice. In this way, although he was flat, he was defeated!


    The public loser Hong was even more incredible. He never thought of the problem of baffling the whole public loser. He even solved the problem of a girl over ten years old.


    Wu Meiniang proudly turned and saluted Merton and said, "tell the master that ten days ago, the master left schoolwork for the apprentice on this bridge. Today, the apprentice has completed it. Please give me some advice."


    After Wu Meiniang found the way to make the tape measure, she didn''t immediately report it to Merton. She just wanted to prove herself to Merton at the moment, but she didn''t expect such twists and turns.


    Merton glanced at Wu Meiniang. The news about Wu Meiniang''s completion of her schoolwork naturally had already reached his ears. He also looked at Li Yun and Gongshu Hong, revealing an inexplicable smile and said, "the bad apprentice has just entered the Mohist School and is not good at learning. If there is anything wrong, please don''t laugh."


    Gongshu Hong immediately laughed and said, "although the disciple is young, the reputation of the great elder martial sister of the Mohist school has spread all over Chang''an city. The silver mirror made by him sells well in the Tang Dynasty. I''ve heard of it for a long time. It''s my honor to meet the young talents of the Mohist school."


    A trace of contempt flashed through Li Yun''s heart. If Wu Meiniang made a folding ruler, he would think he was unlucky. If not, the Mohist School dared to commit malpractices for personal gain against his heart, don''t blame him for being merciless.


    Wu Meiniang went to Li Yun and took out a palm sized item from her ink suit pocket. Li Yun unconsciously touched the folding ruler at his sleeve. Although he was not pleased with Mohist Zi, he had to say that the pocket design of ink suit was extremely convenient and quite in line with the concept of saving money of Mohist.


    "Since martial uncle also made a ruler, how about you and me at the same time?" Wu Meiniang opened her eyes and looked at Li yundao innocently.


    Li Yun couldn''t help but draw from the corner of her mouth. Wu Meiniang''s move was extremely cunning. If others didn''t know, they thought he was competing with a teenage girl?


    "Don''t be rude!" retorted Merton.


    "Martial uncle, Meiniang is making a fool of herself!" Wu Meiniang put out her tongue and took the lead in stretching out her palm. There was a palm sized wooden box in her palm.


    "Control with one hand!" Li Yun''s heart sank. This is the most difficult part of Mohist school. Wu Meiniang''s ruler is the size of a palm, and it is the size of a child''s palm. In terms of size, it has been more than half successful.


    However, Wu Meiniang''s ruler was round. Naturally, it didn''t collide with his folding ruler, which made him breathe a sigh of relief and a little more solemn.


    Later, Wu Meiniang slowly pulled out a flat cloth ruler from the wooden box, which was covered with dense scales. With a move behind Wu Meiniang, a son of the Mohist family came forward to help, and the two worked together to slowly show the people the cloth ruler of one foot long.


    "Accurate to the fifth percentile!"


    "A cloth ruler can be rolled into a roll! Naturally, a ruler of ten feet can be controlled with one hand."


    Seeing Wu Meiniang''s cloth tape measure, Gong Shuhong suddenly realized that the difficulties in the original tape measure were suddenly realized. However, these two problems seem to be easily solved by Wu Meiniang, but they are extremely difficult for ordinary people, because the cloth rope for making cloth tape measure is extremely rare. Only Mojia village has such processes.


    After Wu Meiniang showed it, she pulled the small handle on one side of the wooden box. With Wu Meiniang''s slight force, a Zhang long cloth ruler was slowly put into the wooden box and restored to a palm sized wooden box again.


    "Can it be so?" Li Yun couldn''t help shrinking his eyes and was shocked by Wu Meiniang''s wonderful idea. He thought his folding ruler must be the only answer, but he didn''t expect Wu Meiniang to choose a different way.


    "Mei Niang is waiting for martial uncle''s high work." Wu Mei Niang said positively.


    This time, Li Yun did not despise it any more. Instead, he solemnly took out a half foot long three finger wide wood block from his cuff and showed it to the public.


    "Wooden block!" Gong Shuhong frowned. How could it be a ruler? Only Merton''s eyes brightened and his heart couldn''t help thinking of a ruler commonly used by carpenters in future generations.


    When Li Yun shook his hand, the original two finger wide wood blocks were composed of thin wood blocks. Under the force of Li Yun, the wood blocks formed a one foot long wooden ruler under the connection of Mou Liu.


    "Wonderful!" gongshuhong couldn''t help admiring Li Yun''s design. As the peak of traditional carpentry, gongshuhong didn''t know how many generations he had invaded carpentry, so he naturally agreed with Li Yun''s idea of folding a ruler.


    Moreover, Wu Meiniang used a cloth ruler, while Li Yun used a pure wooden ruler. Naturally, it is more recognized by the public.


    "What I''ve got is also the fifth percentile." Li Yun nodded. He had a good heart with Wu Meiniang and thought of the idea at the same time.


    "I''m afraid it''s the limit?" Gong Shuhong sighed. The world says that the difference is a hundred miles, but it''s already difficult to divide, let alone a hundred miles.


    Li Yun shook his hand and saw that the original one foot long wooden ruler was randomly folded into sections and restored to the original one foot long and three finger wide wooden board.


    "Martial uncle is clever, my nephew is willing to bow down!" Wu Meiniang suddenly took the initiative to admit defeat.


    Li Yun was stunned. He didn''t expect Wu Meiniang to take the initiative to admit defeat. Although he was very confident in his folding ruler, Wu Meiniang''s cloth tape was also extraordinary. It''s not sure whether she will win or lose.


    "Mohou really taught a good apprentice!" Gongshu Hong said meaningfully.


    Merton coughed and said, "although Meiniang has completed the ruler according to the regulations, there are many places that need to be improved. The making is cumbersome. Brother Li''s folding ruler is simple and exquisite. It is indeed a little better."


    Although his disciple lost to Li Yun, Merton was still proud. Naturally, Merton was happy to give Li Yun a face.


    "It seems that the disciple''s cloth tape measure is extremely rare, and mohou is too difficult for the younger generation!" general Gong Shuhong said. Wu Meiniang''s design can''t help but applaud him. He doesn''t believe that Merton can point out any defects under his careless words.


    Merton laughed and said, "brother Gongshu is too high and looks at bad people. Although the cloth tape has advantages, the cloth tape is too soft, and things too short can be operated by one person. If it is more than six feet long, I''m afraid two people need to cooperate."


    When Wu Meiniang showed her cloth tape measure, they pulled a Mohist child to cooperate. This is indeed a disadvantage. Not only compared with the advantages of cloth tape, this defect is almost negligible.


    "However, the cloth ruler has an unparalleled advantage that has not been brought into play. That is, compared with the wooden ruler, the cloth ruler can be thinner, that is, under the same volume, the cloth ruler can be fitted with a longer ruler." Merton said, pondering for a moment: "If this cloth tape is several times larger and the length is increased to fifty feet, it will certainly have a more prominent effect, and the previous defects are enough to make up for it."


    "Fifty feet!" Gongshu Hong was shocked by Merton''s idea. The distance of fifty feet is as much as 150 meters in later generations. In this era, long-distance measurement is very troublesome. If you use a fifty foot cloth tape measure, two people can easily and accurately measure, and it is easy to carry and retract. It will certainly be very popular.


    "Apprentice is taught!" Wu Meiniang said sincerely.


    "Brother Mo is really extraordinary. How about pointing out Li Mou''s folding ruler?" Li Yun disagreed.


    He originally thought that the cloth tape measure was on a par with his own folding ruler, but he didn''t expect that in a few words, mojiazi pointed out the defects of the cloth tape measure and improved it. At once, it had overshadowed the popularity of the folding ruler. Since the tape measure was also defective, wouldn''t it say that his folding ruler was not perfect? This time, he wanted to see what the mojiazi said.


    Merton looked at the folding rule in Li Yun''s hand, smiled and said, "brother Li''s folding rule naturally has no defect of cloth tape, and can be easily straightened. The length within one foot is under control."


    Li Yun couldn''t help showing a trace of satisfaction when he heard the speech. However, before he was satisfied for long, he listened to Merton''s voice and said, "but..."


    "However, the length of our arms is limited after all, and it is the limit to barely control six feet. The most suitable length for operation is three feet, which is also the reason why the three foot wooden ruler is the most commonly used by craftsmen. If the single section length of the folding ruler is reduced to three inches, the length is reduced to three feet, and ten boards are only one finger thick, so that craftsmen can operate easily and carry easily, Isn''t that popular? "


    "Three inches long, one finger thick!" Li YunRuo thought, looked at the folding rule in his self-help hand, exerted a little force and directly broke off one-third.


    Li Yun took a three foot long folding ruler and operated it back and forth with both hands. It was really much more convenient than the previous ten foot long folding ruler, and it could be held in the palm of his hand. It was very convenient.


    "Li Yun has been taught!" Li Yun bowed down this time.


    It was embarrassing for Hong to lose the public game. He didn''t expect that Mohist Zi''s words really made the folding ruler and cloth ruler shine, so he said angrily: "Today, I''m lucky to be able to witness the good fortune of craftsmen. Now I can easily measure a long distance with a tape measure, and a folding ruler can easily measure a distance of three feet. I heard that Marquis mohou once said that I will also make a ruler to compete with disciples. I don''t know if I can open my eyes."


    Li Yun''s heart moved. Now the ruler for short-distance and long-distance measurement has been determined. Only the medium-distance ruler is still blank. If so, the Mohist school can perfectly solve the medium-distance ruler for measuring a distance, and the wooden ruler of Datang has reached perfection.


    "This is the game between Mo and the villains. I didn''t expect to disturb so many people and make you laugh." Merton said with a bitter smile.


    Gongshu Hong pressed step by step: "although it is a game, it is enough to benefit craftsmen all over the world. Marquis Mo can''t be modest!"


    Merton laughed, reached out his hand, grabbed a palm sized item from the ink house pocket, stretched it out in front of the people, and solemnly said, "it''s a shame."


    The crowd immediately looked at Merton and saw a white metal object in the palm of Merton''s hand.


    "This is iron!" Gongshu Hong said uncertainly.


    "To be exact, it should be steel!" Merton nodded. "This is the steel ruler made by Mo!"


    "Steel ruler!" everyone immediately looked at each other.


    Li Yun made a folding ruler out of wood, and Wu Meiniang made a cloth tape out of cloth rope. Nobody thought that the material used by mojiazi was steel. I''m afraid there is no precedent in the world to take steel as a ruler.


    "Steel can also be made into a ruler!" not only other people are incredible, but even Wu Meiniang is also incredible. You know, steel is harder than wood. How can it be palm size?


    Merton explained: "everyone knows that steel is extremely tough, but they don''t know that the flexibility of steel is also excellent. A thin steel sheet can be bent, and once it is let go, it can be quickly restored to its original state."


    Gongshu Hong solemnly nodded. He often deals with steel and has a little more recognition of mojiazi''s steel ruler in his heart.


    "So, Mo asked Mojia village to specially refine a batch of steel with excellent flexibility and roll it into a thickness of about one centimeter. It was cut into a finger wide steel bar and engraved with the most precise scale to assist the mechanics secret skills of Mohism. Finally, there was this masterpiece in front of us, the steel ruler." Merton solemnly said.


    At this moment, almost everyone''s eyes were fixed on the steel box in Merton''s hand.


    When Merton saw this, he stretched out his hand and pulled a six foot long steel ruler out of the palm sized box. However, this was not over. With Merton''s continuous action, a two foot long steel ruler appeared in front of the crowd.


    "A ruler two feet long." the people''s faces were angry for a while. Mozi only asked them to make a ruler one foot long, which was enough. However, his own requirements were higher, so he directly made a ruler two feet long, which was also controlled by one hand.


    "The reason why Mo made a ruler with a length of two feet is that it is convenient to operate. The distance measurement must be accurate, which often requires the cooperation of two people, and this steel ruler only needs one person to operate to ensure its accuracy. I can stand still and easily measure the distance to the bridge deck," said Merton. I picked up the ruler with a length of two feet, folded it into two halves, and put the end directly against the side of the bridge, Continuously slide the bent part.


    "One foot, two feet, five minutes and two centimeters!" Merton forced his hand, and saw that the originally bent steel ruler was straightened again and restored to the original state.


    Gongshu Hong sighed. The Mohist school was really extraordinary. The steel ruler was rigid and flexible. It was a combination of wooden ruler and cloth ruler. This alone was better than the other two people. I don''t know how much.


    "One per cent!" but Li Yun frowned when he heard the accurate figure. He was only accurate to the fifth per cent at most. He really didn''t know how the Mohist School measured the one per cent.


    Merton saw Li Yun''s doubts, smiled proudly and said, "wood ruler and cloth ruler are limited by material constraints, so they can''t be accurate too much. However, steel ruler doesn''t have such defects, which is accurate enough to one centimeter."


    Merton said, exerting a slight force on the steel ruler in his hand, and immediately moved it horizontally in front of Li Yun and Gong Shuhong.


    "Sure enough, it''s accurate to one hundredth!" they were shocked when they saw the fine scale on the steel ruler. The scale of the steel ruler is engraved like the wooden ruler, and then printed with ink. Once the wooden ruler is too accurate, it will destroy the structure of the wood block and wear out quickly. The same is true for the cloth tape. If it is too accurate, even the most advanced ink of the ink journal, It will also spread into a mass of ink. However, the firmness of steel perfectly solves these two hidden dangers. Under the precise instrument of Mohism, it has perfectly engraved a width of one centimeter, which is very easy to distinguish.


    "In addition, the best use of the steel ruler is to measure in the object, especially in the interior of the house, which can be easily completed by one person." Merton said, showing the ingenious use of the steel ruler, which is a perfect combination of the advantages of folding ruler, wood ruler and cloth tape.


    "Even, when we use it up, we just need to gently loosen the buckle, and the steel ruler can be perfectly folded in the palm of our hand. In fact, it should be called a steel tape." Merton moved his hand and turned on a switch of the steel ruler. There was a clattering sound between them. The steel ruler automatically retracted and became the size of a palm when there was no control.


    "Master, it''s really powerful!" Wu Meiniang said with sincere admiration. Merton''s skill is much better than her manual operation of cloth tape measure.


    "Mohist mechanism skill!"


    Li Yun couldn''t help but feel proud. Mohist mechanism is the most proud place of Mohism, and mechanism is also the strength of Xiangli''s vein.


    However, Li Yun guessed this wrong. The winding technology inside the steel tape measure is not owned by Mojia village, but comes from the puppets of Deng Ling''s family. From a street show to ink technology that helps the national economy and the people''s livelihood, it has to be said that it is made by nature.


    "Three masters of Mohism!" Gong Shuhong sighed.


    The Mohist school has been silent for thousands of years, but there are still so many talents. The public loser is extremely poor in the wisdom of all people, but he can''t crack it. However, the three Mohists have made a ruler, which directly includes the rulers of near, medium and far distances.


    Gongshuhong can predict that these three rulers have been listed and will certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid Lu Banchi, originally a dominant company, will no longer be able to compete with it.


    "I lost!" Li Yun said calmly, but this time he didn''t complain, because Merton''s steel tape is too amazing.


    Mo Cun shook his head and said, "this time, there are no losers. It can be said that each of the three rulers has its own advantages. How can we divide the winners and losers? Even Lu Banchi, which is most commonly used by carpenters today, tends to benefit and avoid evil in building houses. It is not too much to draw this game."


    "It should be so!" Gong Shuhong said.


    So far, the battle between the two veins of Mohism officially ended. In the three competitions, Li Yun, one vein of Xiangfu, played Merton, one vein of Xiangli.


    Two defeats and one draw!

 Chapter 827

    "Two defeats and one draw!"


    At the east gate of Chang''an City, Li Yun and his old servant stood against the wind. Recalling their experiences in recent months, they couldn''t help feeling in their hearts.


    Li Yun cracked the well killing principle for the first time. It can be said that he cracked it at the same time with Mo Jiazi. However, there was no detail and detail of Merton, so he failed!


    The second time they built the bridge together, it was actually a dispute between the arch bridge and the beam bridge. Although the Qujiang arch bridge seen by Li Yun can be said to be the peak of the arch bridge, Li Yun lost again in the face of the beam bridge of demons. However, this time it was a crime of non war.


    The third time, the folding rule reached the limit of the wooden rule, which made the short-distance measurement extremely easy, which was barely equal to the steel rule for medium-distance measurement. However, in fact, the folding rule is still inferior to the steel rule.


    "Chang''an City, worth the trip!"


    Li Yun spat out a hot airway from his mouth. He looked at the hot sun above his head. When he rushed to Chang''an City, it was still snowy and cold. Now he left Chang''an city. Unexpectedly, it was hot summer.


    "Young master, let''s go!" the old servant urged. Xiangfu''s pulse had already urged Li Yun to go back, but he had been delayed because of the construction of the bridge.


    Li Yun nodded heavily and was ready to step on the carriage and leave.


    However, when they were ready to set foot on the carriage, they found that there was no one in the carriage. Only a coachman was waiting. The old servant was not surprised. Suddenly, he got up and hurried back out, glared at the coachman and said, "why, should Xiangli''s pulse be killed!"


    Xiangfu''s pulse and Xiangli''s pulse are always wrong. Moreover, Li Yun obviously came to trouble Merton this time. Is the MOH family going to attack him at this time.


    "You misunderstood me! After all, the family of Xiangfu is also a branch of Mohism. How can Mohist village attack their fellow disciples? My young master and young master Li sympathize with each other, but they can''t send them away because they have something to do. The Mohist team specially prepared a special car for young Master Li to escort them to Luoyang. I didn''t expect this misunderstanding. I''m really sorry." I saw the sound, Li Xin appeared in front of them.


    The old servant breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, I don''t blame the old servant for thinking too much. In this era, most of the disputes among the hundreds of schools of thought are the struggle of gentlemen, and the internal struggle among the hundreds of schools is extremely cruel. Take the Buddhist family known as compassion. The later Zen sect competed fiercely for the position of the sixth ancestor by all means. The sixth ancestor Huineng once tried to avoid being chased and killed, He went out of the mountain after hiding for 16 years.


    "Uncle Tong, if the famous Mohist in Chang''an City has only this tolerance, how can we lead the revival of Mohism." Li Yun waved his big hand and asked the old servant to step down.


    "Young master Li and my young master are really close friends!" Li Xin complimented.


    Li Yun couldn''t help but draw from the corners of his mouth. If he put aside the gratitude and resentment of the two veins, Mozi is indeed an intersecting friend, but the two veins have accumulated resentment for a long time, and I''m afraid it''s difficult for a confidant to do it.


    "Thank you, brother Mo, for your kindness. Li Mou took it in his heart." Li Yun accepted Merton''s arrangement calmly.


    "In addition, my young master has a wish for young master Li to accept it." Li Xin said and presented three rulers, namely folding ruler, cloth tape and steel ruler!


    Li Yun took it and looked carefully. The three rulers were all revised. The folding ruler was exactly as Merton had pointed out before. Each section was three inches long, three feet long and one finger wide. It was perfect to hold it in his hand.


    As for the cloth tape measure, the Mohist school directly expanded it to the size of the plate, which clearly marked fifty feet.


    What surprised him even more was that he slapped the big round steel ruler and pulled it out directly with a little force. The unique rustling sound of the steel ruler was particularly pleasant, especially the slightly curved radian of the steel ruler, which can be rigid or flexible. In addition, the most precise scale, even a scale of only one centimeter, was clearly visible.


    "This is the ruler that craftsmen all over the world crave!" Li Yun sighed. Ask the craftsmen in the world, who can refuse the temptation of the steel ruler. If ordinary craftsmen own this steel ruler, I''m afraid it''s like a famous sword in the hands of Xiake. It''s all a sharp weapon for fame.


    "What is this?" suddenly Li Yun saw a piece of exquisite paper in his hand and looked at it curiously.


    "This is the bill printed by Mojia bank. Young master Li can go to the bank opened in Mojia village in Luoyang to get the silver equivalent to the amount on the bill. There is no need to rush around with the same heavy money. It is not only convenient, but also ensures the safety of money." Li Xin explained.


    "A thousand passes!" Li Yun was startled when he saw the amount of the bill,.


    Li channel: "my young master said that a thousand gold is easy to get, but a bosom friend is difficult to find. What is a thousand Guan?"


    "No merit, no reward. Please forgive me. Li Mou can''t accept it." Li Yun shook his head.


    Li Xin had long expected that Li Yun would refuse, and Lang said, "young master Li misunderstood. This is not directly for you, but the Mojia village bought the money that young master invented the folding ruler. However, Mojia village has stipulated that whoever invented new things will enjoy a 5% share, and one thousand runs is just to buy out young master Li''s folding ruler all at once."


    "This!......" Li Yun, who has been in Chang''an City for half a year, naturally knows this rule of Mojia village. Take Wu Meiniang, an apprentice of Mojia Zi, for example. She has invented the silver mirror at a young age, and the income of 5% is enough to make her a famous rich woman in Chang''an City, which has long been popular in Chang''an city.


    Naturally, your folding ruler is not as valuable as a silver mirror, but it is not worthless.


    The money was bought with a folding ruler invented by himself. It didn''t seem unacceptable. Li Yun''s heart was shaken.


    "Since it''s the young master''s broken ruler income, I think it''s understandable to accept it!" the old servant on one side advised that his young master was too indifferent to fame and wealth. At the beginning, he directly put the grand reward of mojiazi on the Qujiang arch bridge for his self-esteem. This time, he was afraid to push off the grand money. Anyway, it was the money of Mojia village. He didn''t take it for nothing.


    "Li Mou is ashamed of it." Li Yun was finally persuaded. To tell the truth, Xiang Fu''s family has lived in seclusion so far and is not rich. A thousand passes are also a rare huge fortune for them. Li Yun didn''t get the idea of subsidizing Xiang Fu''s family when he cracked Merton''s reward.


    Seeing that Li Yun accepted the bill, Li Xin smiled with satisfaction and said, "I''m afraid Master Li doesn''t know yet. Mohist has built three banks, one in Mohist village, one in Chang''an City and one in Luoyang City. Now it has just been prepared and will officially open tomorrow, and master Li is the first customer of Mohist village bank!"


    "That''s Li''s honor." Li Yun said with a smile, but his heart was shocked. He couldn''t help being convinced by the wonderful ideas of Mohist Zi. Who would have thought that a piece of paper as thin as a cicada''s wing was worth as much as a kilogram of money, and he had found that more than ten kinds of tricks were hidden on this thin bill just now, There are many that even he can''t crack.


    "This is the real inside story of Mojia village!" Li Yun could not help sighing in his heart. At the beginning, he wanted to give Mojia Zi a blow. However, the more he knew about Mojia Zi and Mojia village, the more he found the inside story of Mojia village.


    The profound inside information of Mojia village itself, coupled with the endless fantastic ideas of Mojia Zi, is a perfect combination and creates miracles one after another.


    "The young master once lamented many times that only young master Li is regarded as a bosom friend when he is repairing the bridge. Now young master Li is going to travel far away. I don''t know when I can see him. It''s a pity. I especially asked the boy to present two paintings to me. The young master once said that only young master Li can understand the painting in the world." Li Xin bowed with his hands sealed with a scroll.


    Li Yun flashed in a different color and said with his hands: "it is well known that Mohist paintings are worth thousands of gold. It is lucky for Li to get two at a time!"


    As Li Yun said this, he opened the scroll and was stunned when he saw the first picture. He saw a wide river flowing slowly. On the wide river, a straight beam bridge crossed the river.


    "Is this?" Li Yun suddenly exclaimed, staring at the bridge in the picture.


    "What''s the matter, young master!" the old servant on one side quickly looked sideways. He was shocked and blurted out, "how is this possible?"


    On the vivid picture, on a broad river, several tall building ships pass under the bridge easily. Looking at the span of the two piers, it is far beyond the span of the arch bridge.


    How can the span of the beam bridge exceed that of the arch bridge? The old servant couldn''t help but deeply doubt that it must be the whim of the Mohist school.


    "It''s really possible!" however, Li Yun nodded slowly and stared at the dense iron cables on the bridge deck. What really interested him in this painting was that after mojiazi applied the beam bridge to the extreme, he even integrated the beam bridge and the iron cable bridge into a new bridge with a huge span.


    If later generations see this painting, they will be very familiar with it, because what Merton painted is the most famous Brooke bridge in later generations, but it will move the bridge body from the East River in New York to the Wei River in the north of Chang''an city.


    The old servant naturally saw the dense iron cables and frowned, "what kind of iron cable can bear such a heavy bridge."


    In the process of building the bridge between Merton and Li Yun, the old servant inquired about the construction of the bridge by the Mohists for many times. Naturally, he knew how heavy the reinforced concrete beam bridge was. How can a mere iron rope bear it.


    Li Xinlang said: "it''s not an iron rope. It''s the toughest steel rope produced by Mojia village."


    "Wire rope!"


    Suddenly, Li Yun and the old servant were silent. The quality of steel produced in Mojia village is recognized all over the world. If it was replaced by steel cable, there might be a theoretical possibility.


    "It''s only feasible in theory! It''s hard to build such an unprecedented bridge for thousands of years." Li Yun frowned.


    Li Xinlu: "young master said, it''s no matter how difficult it is, so that the people all over the world will no longer be blocked by the river and travel freely in the world. This is the responsibility of the Mohist school. The Mohist school is duty bound."


    "Duty bound, what a duty bound!" Li Yun immediately said in silence. The secret of building bridges in the world is in the hands of Mohism. If Mohism doesn''t do it, who will do it in the world.


    "Moreover, my young master has played the imperial court and is ready to build this bridge on the Weihe River in the north of Chang''an city. This is the schematic diagram of the Weihe River Bridge." Li Xin solemnly said.


    "In the north of Chang''an City, there is the Weihe River Bridge." Li Yun''s heart moved. Chang''an city is the imperial capital, and there is no obstruction in the East, West and south. However, only the north is separated by the wide Weihe River, which is inconvenient for transportation. If the Weihe River Bridge is built to open up the northern artery for Chang''an City, it will be of great significance to Chang''an City, and the full help of the imperial court will certainly be available. In this way, There is no need to worry about money at all.


    "It seems that Li Mou wants to congratulate brother mo. with the support of the imperial court, the completion of this bridge will be just around the corner." Li Yun couldn''t help but say something sour. He thought he was losing to the Mohists, but he didn''t expect that he had a growing gap with the Mohists on the bridge. If mojiazi built this bridge, no one in the world will remember the Qujiang arch bridge he once built. I''m afraid it will only be regarded as a joke that he thinks that ants shake trees, overestimate his strength and make a fool of himself.


    Li Xin suddenly shook his head and said, "it''s a pity that the bridge has a design drawing, appropriate materials and a continuous supply of money from chaotang. However, it''s a great pity that there is a chief engineer for building the bridge."


    Li Yun said with a bitter smile, "there are countless craftsmen in the world. I''m afraid brother Mo is the one who is qualified to build this bridge."


    This time, Merton''s design completely conquered him. Even he had to admit that the design of bridges in the world is the first in the world, and it must be indisputable.


    Li Xin proudly said, "this bridge is just an idea. At present, it is only feasible in theory. In the process of construction, there will be many difficulties. Young master is bearing the burden of reviving Mohism. How can he spend five or even ten years on a bridge."


    "But this bridge is so important..." Li Yun felt anxious when he heard the speech. He was all over the bridge. Seeing such an amazing bridge, he was very anxious. However, he couldn''t continue to advise. After all, compared with a bridge, the task of Mohist revival is the top priority.


    "Therefore, my young master believes that the world can understand his design drawings. I''m afraid that only young master Li, his confidant, can build the Weihe River Bridge. Only young master Li can shoulder this important task." Li Xin solemnly said.


    Li Yun openly competed with mojiazi to build a bridge in Chang''an City, and his bridge building technology has been recognized by Chang''an city.


    "I!..." Li Yun was stunned. He didn''t expect that mojiazi intended to let him as the chief engineer of Weihe River Bridge to supervise the construction of this amazing new bridge.


    Li Xin suddenly fell into a dilemma. His dream is to build a bridge that surpasses the Zhaozhou Bridge of his ancestors Li Chun. If he can take over the Weihe River Bridge, there is no doubt that he will be able to become famous and make millions. His grandparents and grandchildren will be handed down in history.


    However, after all, the two veins of Mohism have been competing for a long time. How can he easily accept the solicitation of Mohism.


    "Young master Li doesn''t have to make a hasty decision. The foundation laying of the Weihe River bridge must wait until after the dry season in October at the latest. Before that, the position of chief engineer of the Weihe River Bridge is vacant." Li Xin naturally can see Li Yun''s hesitation and said in a loud voice.


    "Thank you!" Li Yun breathed a heavy sigh of relief. This matter is very important. I''m afraid he still needs to go back to Xiangfu''s vein for discussion before he can make a conclusion.


    "In this way, don''t disturb young master Li. I wish young master Li a pleasant journey." Li Xin respectfully said, stretched out his hand and motioned. The coachman immediately whipped his whip and the carriage sped away towards Luoyang.


    On the galloping carriage, Li Yun looked at the schematic diagram of the Weihe River Bridge in his hand again and again. In his opinion, this painting is not only valuable, but also the idea of Mohist Zi''s integration of beam bridge and iron cable bridge is priceless.


    "Young master!" the old servant on one side couldn''t help worrying.


    Li Yun replied: "I know, what I learned is arch bridge after all, and arch bridge is the essence of Xiangfu''s pulse."


    Be cast into the shade of advanced bridges, but he always believed in the advanced nature of the arch bridge he had learned. But the Mohist school made the bridge and the iron bridge bridge shine, and the arch bridge was overshadowed.


    Suddenly, his heart moved, and he remembered that mojiazi had sent two paintings. As soon as he saw the first Weihe River Bridge, he was addicted to it. He even forgot that there was another painting, and his heart was looking forward to opening the next one.


    "This is..." when Li Yun saw the second painting, he suddenly roared in his head.


    The old servant quickly looked over and saw the second picture, which was also a design drawing of the bridge. On a cliff fracture zone, a long arch bridge crossed both banks, and above the arch bridge, huge reinforced concrete columns were erected to support the straight beam bridge above.


    "It''s the integration of arch bridge and beam bridge!" Li Yun was shocked. He didn''t expect that one day, arch bridge and beam bridge could be integrated, which would have such an incredible effect.


    As soon as Li yunnian turned his head, he already knew the great benefits of the integration of arch bridge and beam bridge. In this way, it can not spend huge human and material resources to build piers. In this way, in the mountains or the deep water of the river, the high mountains on both sides will certainly have miraculous effects.


    If Merton does this again, he will surely exclaim that he is not mistaken. What he painted is the deck arch bridge commonly used for bridge construction in mountainous areas in later generations, which is often built in some dangerous places.


    "The arch bridge still has such application!" Li Yun was immediately excited. He originally thought that after the beam bridge was brilliant, the arch bridge would surely sweep away the dust, but he didn''t expect that the integration of arch bridge and beam bridge designed by Mo Jiazi would have such an excellent effect.


    "With these two kinds of bridges, there will be no dangerous way in the world from now on." Li Yun breathed heavily. Since ancient times, many rivers and deep mountains and valleys have hindered traffic. The new bridge with the integration of beam bridge and iron cable is suitable for flat and wide rivers. The deck arch bridge with the combination of arch bridge and beam bridge is suitable for mountainous areas. Li Yun can imagine that once these two bridges are popularized, the world will be a smooth road, And all this has nothing to do with Xiangfu''s vein, who is obsessed with bridges.


    This time, whether he is willing to take over the Weihe River bridge or not, the Xiangfu pulse must be changed. If the Xiangfu pulse is complacent again, I''m afraid it can only be submerged in history.

 Chapter 828

    "Tell me, young master! The gift has been delivered." Li Xin, who hurried back from the east of the city, came to Merton and reported respectfully.


    Merton nodded and said with a smile, "I hope brother Li can understand my pains."


    Wu Meiniang on one side said discontentedly, "the Xiangfu family''s pulse is so aimed at us. The master also gives us gifts and promises a high position. It''s too cheap for them."


    "It''s not cheap for them. As long as Li Yun''s master and servant bring three kinds of rulers and two bridge design drawings back to Xiangfu''s pulse, it will certainly cause an uproar in Xiangfu''s pulse. All the time, Mojia village is in the Ming Dynasty, Xiangfu''s pulse is in the dark, and the enemy is in the dark. Mojia village has always been passive, and the Weihe River Bridge is the bait that leads Xiangfu''s pulse." Merton said proudly.


    "That''s the Weihe River Bridge! Master, how can you bargain with outsiders!" Wu Meiniang said reluctantly.


    Merton hummed coldly: "Cheap, you think the Weihe River is not comparable to Qujiang River, and the Weihe River Bridge is not comparable to the Qujiang River beam bridge. Now the beam bridge is just emerging, and the Weihe River Bridge only stays on the theory, which requires more than ten million work. The background of Mojia village in this aspect is too shallow to compare with the Xiangfu immersed in the bridge for decades "One pulse."


    Building a bridge across the Weihe River requires too much bridge knowledge. Any small mistake will cause serious consequences. In any way, the Xiangfu vein behind Li Yun is the best choice.


    Wu Meiniang was speechless when she heard the speech. The construction of Qujiang bridge in Mojia village depends entirely on the powerful technology, solid materials and Merton''s advanced concept of Mojia village. However, when it comes to the theory of bridge construction, I''m afraid Mojia village is still in a small white state, and I''m afraid it''s really incompetent for the construction of Weihe River Bridge.


    "Merton, well, it''s time for us to enter the palace!" just about this, Princess Changle suddenly came in and said.


    Merton then got up and said, "well, the Qujiang bridge has been completed. I''ll appear and report the good news to your majesty. By the way, see how much the imperial court can allocate to build the Weihe bridge!"


    Princess Changle couldn''t help staring at Merton. She really had no way to take Merton and Li Shimin. The Weng son-in-law was a natural enemy. Li Shimin often cheated his son-in-law. Every time Merton went to see Li Shimin, he always brought some problems that made Li Shimin headache.


    "Princess Changle and her son-in-law have returned to the palace!


    When Princess Changle returned to the palace, the whole palace immediately became a sensation. You know, Merton and Princess Changle almost made the headlines in Chang''an City during this period of time.


    In particular, with the upsurge of the legend of the White Snake, the reputation of Princess Changle has risen to a higher level and has simply become an idol in women''s hearts. The dispute between the two veins of Mohism, Qujiang bridge inspection and public apprenticeship, has amazed the world.


    People smack their tongues one after another. The pattern of all schools of thought is indeed extraordinary. The most people bet is to win or lose some money, and the dispute over the ideas of all schools of thought is confirmed by the frequent bridge.


    "Sister Changle!"


    "Brother in law!"


    The princes and princesses gathered around them and chattered.


    "This is a gift I brought to you!" Princess Changle smiled and greeted her brothers and sisters, giving them exquisite books.


    "Wow! The legend of the white snake! Still with illustrations!" Princess Jinyang took the book and looked at the exquisite patterns. She exclaimed with joy.


    This is a separate edition of the biography of the White Snake specially printed by Ink magazine, and printed with illustrations specially created by Ziyi. It is extremely exquisite, which immediately makes a lot of princes and princesses love it.


    "Meet at the broken bridge!"


    "Borrow an umbrella from the West Lake!"


    "The water is all over Jinshan Temple!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One by one exquisite illustration makes everyone love it and can''t help holding it in their arms.


    "Brother in law, is the bridge you built really so strong?"


    "Brother in law, is the hedgehog rule true?"


    "I want a steel ruler, too!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Most of the princesses gathered next to Princess Changle, while the princes surrounded Merton and chattered. Merton''s magical means attracted them most.


    "When you are free, I can show you the Qujiang bridge in person." Merton smiled and responded to the princes one by one.


    "Well, Merton and Changle have just returned to the palace. Don''t bother. Go and learn your lessons!" finally, empress changsun and Li Shimin came together, which helped them out.


    "I don''t want to listen to those doctor''s lectures. They are boring. How can they be as fun as brother-in-law''s lectures!" Li Zhi said discontentedly.


    The doctor in charge of teaching the princes is hongwenguan. He teaches four books and five classics or history books and laws every day, which is extremely boring. Compared with Professor Merton''s Wu Meiniang''s schoolwork, not only field teaching, but also witty and interesting philosophical stories are deep, hierarchical and interesting. In contrast, Li Zhi is naturally very reluctant to listen to those boring courses.


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help persuading: "most Mohist theories are extremely profound and need a certain foundation to learn. When you officially lay the foundation now, if you want to learn Mohist theories in the future, I will naturally give it to you."


    Merton could not help lamenting that Li Zhi was really an ignorant and fearless person. It was recognized that science knowledge in later generations was difficult. It was not as easy to understand as liberal arts. Li Zhi really didn''t know his blessing in his blessing. I hope he won''t regret it in the future.


    Merton said good or bad, which persuaded Li Zhi reluctantly to go.


    Li Shimin saw all this in his eyes and nodded with a smile. Naturally, he also heard what Merton taught. Even he had to sigh that Wu Meiniang did meet a good teacher. However, the royal family pursued Confucian education. If he rashly changed to Mohist school, it would certainly cause an uproar. Fortunately, Merton properly solved all this.


    "Your father and Morton have something to do. You, my mother and daughter go and say something about yourself!" empress changsun had not seen Princess Changle for a long time, so she took the initiative to pull Princess Changle away and left Morton and Li Shimin.


    "Tell the emperor, I''m lucky to live up to my orders and finally built the Qujiang bridge!" Merton solemnly said to Li Shimin.


    "Well, you didn''t disappoint me this time!" Li Shimin naturally heard about the shocking achievements of Qujiang girder bridge. When he saw Merton build Qujiang bridge into a girder bridge, he was greatly amazed, but he didn''t expect that the real Qujiang girder bridge should be so strong. At least the current load-bearing of vehicles and horses could not pose a threat to Qujiang girder bridge.


    Merton couldn''t help but show a proud smile, suddenly looked at Li Shimin, quickly restored his serious expression and said: "I inform your majesty that since the Qujiang bridge has proved that reinforced concrete is indeed the best thing to build a bridge, I think the next bridge can also be started."


    "Weihe bridge!" Li Shimin immediately breathed, and the majestic bridge in the picture could not help but emerge in his mind. When he first saw the schematic diagram of Weihe bridge, the bridge had been deeply engraved in his mind for a long time.


    As long as the Weihe River Bridge is built, there will be no traffic restrictions in Chang''an city. The benefits need not be said by others. Li Shimin has long been excited.


    "How long will the bridge be completed?" Li Shimin asked solemnly.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "if we let the Mojia village build, it will take at least ten years!"


    "Ten years!" Li Shimin exclaimed. He never thought that the construction period of Weihe River Bridge should be so long.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "there has never been a precedent for such a long bridge since ancient times. I don''t know how many difficulties have been overcome. It''s hard to build it in ten years."


    "But it''s too long!" Li Shimin said discontentedly.


    "But if Xiangfu''s family comes to repair it, it can be repaired in five years at most as long as there is sufficient money supply from the imperial court." Merton said.


    "Xiangfu''s vein is the descendant of Li Chun!" Li Shimin murmured.


    Even he has heard of Li Chun''s name. Li Chun is the most famous bridge expert in the previous dynasty. The Zhaozhou Bridge built under his supervision has been extremely amazing, and countless great craftsmen have been impressed by it.


    The Qujiang arch bridge built under the supervision of his descendant Li Yun just fell into the downwind compared with the beam bridge made of steel and cement not long ago, and its bridge building technology has naturally been confirmed.


    "If you push the Weihe River bridge off to Xiangfu''s pulse, it won''t be your boy who wants to be lazy!" Li Shimin deeply doubts Merton''s motivation. With his understanding of Merton, he can''t sit still with Merton''s character for several years.


    Merton immediately complained: "Your Majesty, wronged! Weichen is bent on thinking for the sake of the imperial court. The Weihe River Bridge is very important to Chang''an city. Naturally, it can''t be lost. Xiangfu has accumulated countless bridge repair skills for several generations. Instead of being buried in the deep mountains, it''s better to use it on the Weihe River Bridge, which is not buried."


    Li Shimin snorted coldly. Naturally, he knew the accumulation of Xiangfu''s pulse in bridge construction, and the Weihe River Bridge was too important for Chang''an city. If he added the help of Xiangfu''s pulse, he would be safe.


    "If Xiangfu doesn''t come out of the mountain, you''ll stay by the Weihe River. When will the Weihe River Bridge be built and when will you return to Chang''an City?" Li Shimin said coldly.


    Merton smiled confidently and said, "don''t worry, your majesty. No craftsman in the world can refuse the temptation of the Weihe River Bridge. This time, Xiangfu''s pulse must be unbearable. At that time, as long as the money and food of the imperial court don''t lag behind!"


    "200000 passes!" Li Shimin thought of the cost of playing the Weihe River Bridge in Merton. The cost of the Weihe River Bridge is too high. You know, it only took 400000 passes to build the brick road from Chang''an city to Luoyang.


    Merton has always been committed to making the Tang Court spend money. Seeing Li Shimin''s doubt, he quickly explained: "As the saying goes, it has always cost a lot to build houses and repair bridges on Jinqiao Yinlu copper road. Moreover, the Weihe River Bridge project is huge, and the materials and labor required are countless. 200000 Guan is not much, but fortunately, the 200000 Guan does not need the imperial court at once, but only needs to be appropriated by the imperial court in batches within five years."


    "200000 Guan will be appropriated in batches within five years!" Li Shimin was relieved. In this way, the imperial court can bear it.


    "Of course, if your majesty thinks the cost is too much, our Mojia village can bear the 200000 yuan, as long as your majesty allows Mojia village to collect the bridge fee for 20 years on the Weihe River Bridge." Merton urged the general.


    "Don''t even think about it!" Li Shimin flatly refused. Once the Weihe River Bridge is built, it is the main artery in the north of Chang''an city. Pedestrians, cars and horses flow continuously every day. Even if one person has a penny, he can make a lot of money.


    Merton could not help sighing with regret. The Weihe River Bridge was the real cornucopia. Li Shimin would not let it go. Even if the imperial court was in financial tension, he finally gritted his teeth to support it.


    "You have such confidence to build the Weihe River Bridge, is it relying on which so-called bank?" Li Shimin flashed his eyes.


    Mojia village bank was built not far from the rosefinch gate. Naturally, it can''t hide from Li Shimin. Now Merton nodded: "the purpose of Mojia village bank is to facilitate the internal business operation of Mojia village, but it''s not too difficult for Mojia village to gather a fortune."


    Seeing Merton''s acknowledgement, Li Shimin couldn''t help showing an inexplicable look and said, "the Mohists want to dabble in the bank business, but have they ever thought about the reaction of the Zi Qian family."


    "Son Qian''s family!" Merton said in his heart.


    "This is a very ancient and mysterious family. Although it has a bad reputation, its power is extremely huge. It is hidden in all walks of life and grows like a gadfly. In both prosperous and troubled times, there is always the existence of Ziqian family, and even the shadow of Ziqian family in the change of dynasties." Li Shimin thought deeply.


    Merton suddenly said word by word: "historical records, biographies of goods colonization"


    Ziqian is an ancient business, earlier than all schools of thought, and it is really recorded in historical records.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "yes, it was the first and last time Ziqian family appeared in front of the world. But Ziqian family never disappeared."


    Merton was shocked. His background was still too shallow. He originally thought that Buddhism was the mastermind of Indian money. However, in his contact with Buddhism, Merton gradually denied this view, but he didn''t expect that there was a mysterious hundred families behind indian money - Zi Qian family.


    "The bank is not money. If the money family wants a war, the Mohists will not shrink back." Merton said firmly.


    If Mohism wants to develop, it must be supported by a large amount of money. Banking is the most important link in the revival of Mohism. Whoever wants to stop the revival of Mohism must pass his Morton first.

 Chapter 829

    "Bank!"


    The news of the opening of Mojia village bank was a great sensation in Chang''an city. Not only was the whole scene very grand, but also a full page was printed on the Mexican journal to introduce the banking business of Mojia village.


    "Bank, isn''t it a bank? I didn''t expect that the MOH family was still involved in the money business!" a Confucian student looked at the MOH magazine in the street and couldn''t help humming coldly.


    The reputation of the bank in Datang is not so good. Most banks have only one business, that is, Ziqian business. The huge profits of Ziqian are naturally accompanied by dirty, dark and bloody. Once they fall into usury, there is only one end. Their families are broken and their wives and children are separated. Therefore, the bank is also notorious in Datang, which is the reason why Merton abandoned the bank and directly named it a bank.


    "Yes, many people have lost their money in the bank. How can the Mexican family put money in print?


    Many people immediately talked about it. Mohism has always had a good reputation, and Mohism is the pride of Chang''an city. They never thought that Mohism could collude with Ziqian family.


    A merchant in black hummed coldly, "the Mohist school runs a bank, not a bank. It only accepts silver, not printing money."


    "Silver and copper money are not the same. They are all money. The Mohist would resist printing money." the Confucian student snorted coldly.


    "That''s different!" the merchant in black proudly pointed to Mo magazine, "the banks in Mojia village don''t make money by printing money, but by flying money!"


    "What is flying money?" they were puzzled.


    Seeing the eyes of the people, the merchant in black explained proudly: "Flying money is just our private name. It is called a bill of exchange in the bank. If I want to do a big business in Luoyang City, I need 500 yuan of principal. I''m afraid I can''t pull down a carriage in exchange for copper money. Even if it''s changed into silver, I have to have 500 Liang. If I carry it on my back, it''s not an easy thing, and I have to bear the risk of loss."


    People could not help nodding. This era is cash trading, and copper and silver are extremely heavy. Bulk trading does have this risk and is extremely inconvenient.


    The merchant in black showed off: "if I deposit these five hundred yuan into the Bank of Mojia village in Chang''an City and ask Mojia village to draw a bill, I can take a thin piece of paper and carry it close to me. I can easily reach Luoyang alone, which is extremely convenient without worrying about loss and theft. If money flies from Chang''an to Luoyang, it becomes flying money."


    "Flying money! It''s also appropriate!" the people smacked their tongue one after another. Flying money can be said to be too convenient, which is the consistent style of the Mo family.


    The Confucian scholar did not believe: "the Mohist school did not get up early without profit. How could he be so kind?"


    The merchant in black shook his head and said, "of course not. The charge for flying money is 1%. If you want to remit 100 money, you have to pay a penny to the bank."


    "If you remit five hundred Guan, you have to pay five Guan to the bank! Mozi is really smart. He even thought of such a way to collect money. If it''s one thousand Guan, ten thousand Guan..." Everyone exclaimed. They immediately understood that mojiazi''s banking business was a capital less business. They could charge 1% of the fee by turning their left hand over their right hand. If a small amount makes a lot, it would not be a small amount.


    "What''s this money? If you hire an escort agency to escort the money, I''m afraid you will pay more money. Of course, Mojia Zi is not a greedy son Qian. The minimum standard charge for flying money is one Wen, and the maximum charge is one thousand Wen. That is to say, you will charge you one thousand Wen even if you remit one hundred Guan, and only one thousand Wen if you remit ten thousand Guan, which is consistent money." The merchant in black explained.


    The flying money business, which was popular in the Tang Dynasty in later generations, was precisely because the cost was too high. At the highest time, it was charged 100 yuan per 1000 yuan. In the end, it was not used at all. Finally, it was reduced to one Wen per 100 yuan, which made people unable to stop the collapse. Merton naturally would not make such a mistake and set the price at a price acceptable to all parties from the beginning.


    "That''s acceptable!" many people thought in a flash. You know, when the Mojia village was in crisis years ago, in order to bring back the money from Luoyang, it can be said that Mojia Zi flew nine cattle and two tigers to Chang''an city. If there were a bank at that time, let alone consistent money, even 100 yuan, Mojia village would agree without hesitation.


    "It''s not a small amount of money every time!" the Confucian couldn''t help being jealous. The purchasing power of money in Datang can be quite a lot. Mohists can collect money by sitting on the ground, which makes many people jealous.


    The merchant in black proudly said, "there has always been a lot of money, but compared with the risk to be borne, it is worth thousands of dollars."


    Many people nodded and shook their heads, and speculated about the prospect of the bill. At this time, the bill business of Mojia village bank in Luoyang welcomed its first guest.


    Li Yun of Xiangfu''s vein.


    "This is the bank run by Mojia village!" Li Yun looked at the most prosperous area of Luoyang. The Mojia village bank, which covers a very wide area, is all of reinforced concrete structure and covered with exquisite ceramic tiles. He couldn''t help but take a breath of cool. The appearance of the Bank alone gives people a feeling of wealth and wealth.


    The Mojia village bank in Luoyang is opened next to the princess peony garden. The aftermath of Mojia Zi''s Luoyang Peony Fair has not subsided. As soon as they heard that the Mojia village bank was opened, they came to see the excitement.


    Moreover, the commercial atmosphere in Luoyang city is already strong. I heard that the bill business in Mojia village is of great interest. Many large merchants came to investigate. After all, carrying money is indeed a very troublesome thing in this era. It would be too convenient to use the bill to solve it.


    However, after all, the bill is a new thing, and everyone hesitates. No one dares to be a test object.


    However, at this time, Li Yun came out with more people and walked directly into the hall of the bank with a bill. Seeing this, a group of merchants ignored it, got up and followed Li Yun into the magnificent hall of the bank.


    When Li Yun entered the hall, a bank teller in ink came forward.


    "What do you call this gentleman, remit money or withdraw money!" the bank manager asked enthusiastically.


    "I''m Li Yun. I''m here to withdraw money." Li Yun said.


    Li Yun!


    There was a commotion among the merchants. Li Yun, who was a member of the Xiangfu family, competed in public in Chang''an City and Mojia village. Although he lost two and drew one, there have been few people who can fight with Mojia Zi in recent years. Naturally, they have heard of it.


    The shopkeeper was stunned and said, "it''s said that the same disciple of Xiangfu''s family, please come here!"


    The shopkeeper led Li Yun to a window in the hall. The window was separated by thick glass. People inside and outside could see each other clearly, but they could not touch each other. Only a small hole was left for the delivery of bills.


    Li Yun reached out and knocked on the thick glass. There was a dull sound. He suddenly understood that this was the extremely hard glass produced by Mojia village.


    "Sir, please show me your money order and ID card!" in the glass, a Mohist child smiled disapprovingly.


    Li Yun remembered his business and smiled awkwardly. Then he handed the money order and guide from the mouth of the cave to the children of the Mohists.


    After the Mohist son checked it, he recorded the amount of the bill in detail, put plates of silver on the counter, and then handed Li Yun a receipt, saying, "please confirm and sign for it. Later, please check the silver carefully. Once you leave the counter, the Mohist family will not be responsible."


    Li Yun carefully checked the receipt. After confirming that it was correct, he carefully signed his name. Soon, plates of white silver piled up in front of Li Yun.


    "One thousand Liang!" after careful investigation, Li Yun found that not only the quality of silver was excellent, but also the quantity was a lot.


    "The Mojia village really paid the full amount of silver!" the merchant who took the opportunity to come in exclaimed when he saw this scene. The scene in front of them was so shocking.


    "Doesn''t it mean that the bill will charge one percent?" a merchant didn''t understand.


    The shopkeeper on one side explained: "the guest doesn''t know. There is a discount during the opening of Mojia village bank. Remittance is free within one month."


    "Free!"


    Suddenly, many people were excited. The reputation of Mojia village had just been confirmed. Indeed, they would pay the same amount of silver. Coupled with free, many people were eager to try.


    At the moment, Li Yun just got up after counting the silver. A merchant couldn''t wait and said, "I''m going to Mojia village to buy goods. I believe Mojia Zi won''t deceive me. I''m going back to Mojia village for 50 years!"


    Other merchants also moved one after another, but they were still worried.


    The bank manager on one side added another fire: "you don''t have to worry. Each bill has a unique code. Others simply counterfeit it. Even if it''s lost, you can take out the money with your valid identity."


    "OK, I''m going to remit to 500 Guan in Chang''an city!" then a merchant said.


    Five hundred Guan is nothing to Mojia village, and there are so many witnesses. He believes that Mojia village will not cheat.


    One has two, two has three, and soon many people have begun to queue up for remittance.


    At this time, Li Yun checked the silver and was about to leave. One thousand liang of silver was enough for hundreds of kilograms. The Bank of Mojia village kindly packed it in two hand-held boxes. Li Yun carried one by hand, even if he was young and strong, he couldn''t help panting.


    "Sir, the Mohist bank happens to have a free escort service. As long as it is in Luoyang, you can escort home. I wonder if you need it." the shopkeeper waved his hand, and the two Mohist children dressed as guards came forward immediately.


    Li Yun couldn''t help sighing that Mojia village could develop and grow. Indeed, it was not a false reputation. He thought of such a considerate and meticulous work.


    "No, I have someone to pick me up!" Li Yun shook his head and refused.


    Then he vigorously lifted the two cash boxes and put them in his hands. Suddenly, there was a tiger under his feet and walked out of the bank hall with his head held high. Outside the bank, the old servant beside Li Yun had already been driving and waiting.


    Li Yun boarded the carriage and began to turn east and West in Luoyang. He soon disappeared without a trace.


    Half a month later, in a secret place in Qidi, Li Yun dismounted and saw the seclusion of Xiangfu''s pulse. He was suddenly separated from the world.


    "The young master is back!"


    With a child''s surprise, the whole seclusion became a sensation.


    Li yun''ang first walked into the seclusion place, thousands of money, folding ruler, cloth tape, steel ruler and two bridge design drawings. Soon, this seclusion place, which has been calm for thousands of years, fell into an uproar, like a boulder falling into a backwater.

 Chapter 830

    "It''s only free for one month! If it''s over this month, don''t you have to charge?" in Chang''an City, people continue to discuss the bank with interest, and an idle man regrets.


    "It''s not enough to be free for a month, but if you want to save money, it''s not impossible. If you use this method, you don''t have to pay the cost of one hundred."


    "You can save money!" the crowd couldn''t help but say. Although the rate of one hundred is not high, they can save money. Naturally, they are willing to.


    The merchant in black nodded and said, "in addition to the flying money business of using bills of exchange, there is a more magical thing called silver notes!"


    "Silver ticket?" the people looked at each other. They only heard of silver and never heard of silver ticket.


    "Banks are built in Mojia village. Naturally, they only accept silver. Silver notes are bills issued by the Bank of Mojia village. There are only three kinds of silver notes, namely one or two silver notes, one money silver notes and one cent silver notes. These three kinds of silver notes are only used in Mojia village now, but the Bank of Mojia village will also accept them. If you want to save the cost of flying money, you only need to exchange 1000 one or two silver notes in Mojia village and take them with you A thousand or two silver notes can be exchanged at the bank in Luoyang City, "said the merchant in black proudly.


    "It can still be like this. In this way, the flying money business of Mojia village bank will not be in vain." they were surprised that if everyone took silver tickets to Luoyang, Mojia village bank will no longer be able to make profits with flying money.


    The black merchant explained as like as two peas: "flying money needs to be used to record your seal and secret language with a bill of exchange. No one can take it away from you, even if it is lost. It is not the same. Silver ticket is not the same. All of them are identical. If they lose, who will admit it is yours, so it is safe to say that the bill is the safest."


    "So it is!" the people suddenly realized that the nature of the silver note here is the same as that of the silver. If they lose it, they will never have it again.


    "But it''s good to have white silver in hand. Who is willing to exchange silver for a piece of paper?"


    "A piece of paper, if you see the silver note, you will know how wrong it is. Look! This is the silver note!" the merchant in black proudly raised three beautifully printed papers with one or two, one money and one minute written on them respectively. With a gentle swing, the silver note suddenly made a pleasant sound.


    "If you change the silver note, you won''t be afraid of your white silver floating!" many people exclaimed. The world has long been used to white silver. Who can think that a thin piece of paper can also be used as silver.


    The merchant in black disagreed and said, "as long as I go to the Bank of Mojia village, I can immediately change back the white silver. Besides, this is a money ticket invented by Mojia Zi. What''s to worry about? Will Mojia Zi still care about my money and a penny.


    Everyone was stunned. Yes, if other people are just talking nonsense, don''t want others to exchange money for paper. Unlike mojiazi, since mojiazi led mojiazi into Chang''an City, they have created one wealth miracle after another. Mojiazi has become the first village in the world, and mojiazi has a promise. How can he deceive people''s money


    Moreover, Mohist expressly stipulates that silver tickets can only be used in Mohist village. As long as they leave Mohist village, I''m afraid only Mohist village stores and Mohist village banks will accept them, and no one forces them to exchange them.


    "Mozi is really cunning!" the Confucian suddenly realized.


    Among the crowd, there are many fans of Mohism. They are dissatisfied and say, "be careful, you Confucian. Don''t let misfortune come out of your mouth."


    The Confucian student snorted coldly, but his tone was a little relaxed and said: "Mojiazi divided silver notes into one, two, one and three kinds, not to exchange silver, but to see the disadvantage of heavy copper money. One or two silver notes can be exchanged for consistent money, which is a few kilograms, and only need a piece of paper as thin as cicada wings. One silver note can be exchanged for 100 Wen, and one silver note can be exchanged for 10 Wen. Mojiazi has a good calculation, and the people of Mojia village will go out in the future , just take a few thin silver tickets and a few copper coins. How convenient it will be. "


    Even if his prejudice against Mohist school was great, he could not help being shocked by Merton''s idea. In this era, he would almost go on the street with a heavy money bag, which was very heavy and inconvenient.


    In Mojia village, where silver tickets are implemented, people''s lives will change dramatically. In Mojia village, people can easily buy any goods with only a few silver tickets, and it is very easy to find change. These silver tickets can be said to perfectly solve the disadvantage of copper money.


    "And it is said that if you want to trade with Mojia village in the future, you must use silver tickets." the merchant in Black said that he changed some silver tickets because he needed to buy goods from Mojia village.


    "Isn''t it a piece of paper? If I can print a silver note, I''ll be rich!" said an idle man happily.


    The merchant in black hummed coldly, "you think the ink family is a fool. The paper used to print the silver note is very exquisite, and even the most powerful paper shop can''t make it. Let alone more than ten anti-counterfeiting methods on the silver note. Look at the gold thread, the watermark, the relief, and the ink. Which one is the secret skill with a price of thousands of gold. How can you easily crack it?"


    The merchant in black generously circulated the silver tickets to the public. Many people circulated the three beautifully printed silver tickets. Looking at the unheard of anti-counterfeiting technology, they felt more secure in their hearts.


    "I''m afraid it''s a hundred times more difficult to forge a silver note than to fake it!" a man of insight smacked his tongue.


    Even the most fastidious Confucian scholars have to admit that the silver tickets of Mojia Zi are really beautiful. As long as the silver tickets cannot be copied, Mojia village will be invincible.


    Chang''an City and Luoyang city only took the silver note as a talk capital, or as a means to avoid the cost of the bill. However, in Mojia village, it caused an uproar.


    "Pay!"


    In the twinkling of an eye, it''s the monthly salary payment time in Mojia village. This time can be said to be a great event in Mojia village. Not only the workers are happy, but also the businessmen in Mojia village are excited. Whenever Mojia village pays wages, their business is booming.


    The wages of Mojia village are counted in Chang''an city. These workers have money and are naturally happy to spend.


    "Li Tiezhu! The salary this month is one or two or three dollars!" with the cry of the foreman, a dark young man came forward happily.


    People can''t help but smack their tongue. It can be said that there are several high wages among the workers in Mojia village. Isn''t it nearly fifteen liang of silver a year? I''m afraid it''s enough to marry a daughter-in-law in the countryside.


    "This is the salary?" however, when the salary was sent to Li Tiezhu, Li Tiezhu suddenly changed his face.


    "How is it paper?"


    "Paper money can also be used as silver!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly all the workers were in an uproar. All the time, the wages in Mojia village were paid in time, and the silver was very good. Who could have thought that this time, Mojia Zi changed the silver into paper money.


    "This is a silver note! It was invented by the young master himself. Each one can be used as silver. You can take these silver notes to go shopping outside the shop or change them into real silver at the Mojia village bank." the foreman explained.


    "Seriously?" the people doubted.


    "That''s natural. The young master can deceive you. Besides, not only you, but also I will receive silver tickets. In the future, Mojia village will issue silver tickets when it pays wages, and even the village head will no longer issue silver." the foreman said, to tell the truth, the foreman likes silver tickets very much when he pays wages. It''s easy to carry and distribute them, In the past, he had a headache when he counted copper coins alone. Now he just needs to gently count a few silver notes of different denominations.


    A group of workers accepted the silver ticket with skepticism. Some of them couldn''t wait to go to the Bank of Mojia village to exchange it for silver. However, after all, the window was limited, and more people couldn''t line up at all, so they had to take the silver ticket and stroll in the business District.


    "Shopkeeper, how much is this?" a worker asked, pointing to a beautiful dress.


    "A penny!" said the shopkeeper in a loud voice.


    "Do you accept the cashier''s check?" the worker asked tentatively.


    The shopkeeper laughed and said, "of course, I took one or two silver tickets, but I can actually change one or two silver at the Bank of Mojia village, which is as good as white silver."


    The reason why the shopkeeper agreed so happily is that yesterday, Li Yi, the village head of Mojia village, visited each merchant door to door to personally ensure that the silver tickets are true and effective and will be exchanged in full. Even if the merchant needs to pay rent or buy goods from Mojia village in the future, they also only accept silver tickets.


    With Li Yi''s guarantee, they naturally have no choice. Moreover, all the workers in Mojia village pay their wages with silver tickets. If they don''t accept silver tickets, do they still do business!


    After the first pile was sold with silver notes, more and more people began to use silver notes for transactions. Moreover, compared with cold and heavy silver, silver notes as thin as cicada wings are easier to change and carry. More and more people are aware of their convenience. Coupled with the guarantee of Mojia village bank, Silver notes soon became popular in Mojia village and quickly integrated into all aspects of villagers'' life.

 Chapter 831

    For several days, the earth shaking changes in Mojia village have directly become a topic of great interest to the people of Chang''an city. Many more people specially drove to Mojia village to experience the feeling of using silver tickets. After returning, they boasted to the people one after another.


    "The silver note is really wonderful. A mere piece of paper money can be used as silver. In the past, we all carried a load-bearing money bag and should always pay attention to those people in Qianmen. It''s good in Mojia village. There are only a few thin pieces of paper that can be easily put in my pocket. No one knows how much money I have brought!" Jia Gang, a merchant in black, returned from Mojia village in Pan''s restaurant, Proud to show off his magical experience in Mojia village.


    The crowd couldn''t help but itch and scream.


    "Shopkeeper pan, I''ve just returned from Mojia village. All the silver has been changed into silver tickets. I don''t know whether you can accept the meal money in Pan restaurant. If you don''t believe it, you can ask the waiter to take this silver ticket to the Bank of Mojia village and change some silver. It''s not too late for me to pay the bill." the merchant in black raised several silver tickets in his hand.


    "Silver note?"


    Shopkeeper pan was stunned. He met this kind of thing for the first time. He pondered for a moment and said, "I still believe in the reputation of Mohist. At the same time, I also want to see some silver tickets. I''ll make an exception to accept you this time."


    Shopkeeper pan often deals with money. Naturally, he knows that he may encounter this kind of thing in the future. He might as well know it in advance. Moreover, the silver ticket has just come out for a few days, and it must not be fake. However, Rao is so. After receiving the silver ticket, shopkeeper pan still turns out the previous Ink magazine, and touches the gold thread for a while according to the anti-counterfeiting method of verifying the silver ticket in the ink magazine, After a while, he picked up the silver ticket and looked at the mercury in the sky. After a long time, he accepted it satisfactorily.


    "The Mohist school really has a wonderful idea!" the people in the restaurant were surprised to see that the merchant in black used paper money to pay the bill.


    The merchant in black smiled proudly and said, "it''s rare to pay with a silver ticket in Chang''an City, but it can be found everywhere in Mojia village. If you talk about fantastic ideas, silver ticket is only one of them, and Mojia Zi has a better idea."


    "And?" the crowd could not help but open their eyes and listened curiously.


    The merchant in black proudly said, "this time, the Bank of Mojia village has issued three kinds of bills, one is the safest bill, one is the silver bill circulating only in Mojia village, and the other is the check specially for the use of one person in Mojia village!"


    "Check?"


    Although people have already adapted to the endless stream of new words of Mohist school, they are still full of fog when they hear this check.


    The merchant in black nodded and said, "it is said that this is a kind of bill specially designed by the bank for mojiazi. It is a blank bill. As long as mojiazi writes the amount on the check and signs his name, whoever takes this check to the mojiacun bank, even if it says 10000 Guan on it, the bank will pay it."


    "This...!"


    All of a sudden, everyone stayed there. They never thought there would be such an operation.


    They have always known that silver and copper can be used as money. Today, the Mexican family is an eye opener. They can buy countless things just by writing the amount on a piece of paper. This operation makes people tremble.


    "If I had a check too!" an idle man couldn''t help imagining.


    "You''d better wake up!" the merchant in black immediately sniffed, "who will accept the check you wrote? You think you''re a Mohist!"


    "Yes!" the people despised one after another. The reputation of mojiazi was naturally trustworthy. Let alone a check, even if mojiazi promised, they would not think that mojiazi would default,.


    However, since ancient times, the world has known that empty words have no basis. The check has turned the empty words of mojiazi into a voucher. With the signature of mojiazi and the guarantee of mojiacun, the credit has been added.


    "Moreover, there is a special code on each check, which can only be matched at the Bank of Mojia village. Even if you give you the check book required by Mojia, you can''t withdraw money." Leng hum, a merchant in black.


    "Money order, silver note and check!" the three kinds of bills of Mojia village bank simply opened the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty and became a topic among the people for a while.


    Mojia village bank is also a prosperous scene. The bank hall is full of business trips with surging people. After the free discount spread one month before the opening, merchants in Chang''an City and Luoyang City moved one after another. The two cities already have continuous business trips and frequent economic exchanges, while Mojia village bank is perfect to solve the hidden worries of carrying money for them.


    Especially when it is said that the Bank of Mojia village was built under the supervision of the public loser, the reputation of Mojia village bank has been improved.


    Merton walked out of the door of the bank''s Treasury, followed by gongshuhong.


    "The public loser is really extraordinary. This time the bank will be safe!"


    After Merton inspected the bank''s security measures, he nodded to Gongshu Hong behind him. Gongshu''s Millennium reputation is indeed worthy of its reputation. All the conditions he mentioned before have been completely created. With the existing conditions, I''m afraid it is a rare safe place in the world.


    "Just be satisfied with mohou?" Gongshu Hong was not relieved. Even he didn''t know when to start. Merton''s affirmation was enough to make him proud.


    "This is the reward of the public loser." Merton took a pen and signed his name on the checkbook.


    "Check!" Gong Shuhong looked at the thin check in his hand and looked strange.


    Naturally, he also heard the rumor of mojiazi''s check. He didn''t expect that mojiazi''s first check was signed for himself.


    "I can''t believe it!" Merton joked.


    Gongshu Hong said with a wry smile: "the reputation of mohou is naturally trustworthy. Don''t say it''s a check. Even if mohou said a word, I won''t doubt it. It''s just that there''s too much money in this check."


    The public loser built three banks for Mojia village. According to the agreement, Mojia village will pay the public loser 3000 Guan. However, Merton''s check is worth 5000 Guan.


    Merton laughed and said, "no more, no less, just right. Mojia village is going to build two more banks, one in Chencang and the other in Zhengzhou. The extra two thousand Guan is the reward of the public loser."


    If Mojia village wants to develop the bill business, it must open more outlets. Chencang and Zhengzhou are both prosperous cities of Datang, with many merchants and business trips, which is very suitable for the bill business.


    "Mohou has a brilliant vision!" Gongshu Hong admired him, and he keenly found that the two cities mentioned by Merton are on the brick road of Longhai line, and Tianshui is within 200 Li from Chang''an. According to the speed of the four wheeled carriage of Mohist Zi, it is exactly half a day''s journey. Zhengzhou is also far away from Luoyang, and its geographical location is better than Chencang at the intersection of Longhai line and North-South official road.


    "This is only the first batch of expansion of Mojia village bank, and the bill business of Mojia village will continue to expand in the future. At that time, there is a need to lose public money," Merton said.


    Gongshu Hong said happily: "Gongshu family is duty bound."


    He supervised the construction of a bank for a thousand years. Although the Mohists were demanding, they paid very generously. Moreover, this is a long-term business. How can public losers miss it.


    Gongshu Hong got a huge fortune in history and the promise of Mohist''s future. He couldn''t help leaving happily, but he didn''t find that Gongshu Hong had been attached to Mohist to a great extent. After leaving the Mohist school, the public loser will soon be beaten back to its original shape.


    As soon as Gongshu Hong left, he saw three sneaky figures quietly appear around Merton.


    "Why are you here?" Merton looked intently. It must be Qin Huaiyu.


    Qin Huaiyu looked discontented and said, "brother Mo is not righteous. He can only enjoy such a good thing."


    Merton looked confused and said, "which one are you talking about?"


    "How dare you hide more than one?" Chumo and others were angry and defeated.


    Merton knew he was wrong and quickly changed the topic and said, "tell me what you want. There will be no shop after this village."


    "We want a check!" Wei Chi Baolin said with bright eyes.


    Merton didn''t understand. "Check? How much do you need?"


    Qin Huaiyu shook her head and said, "we don''t want money. We just want a check. If we can sign on it, we can get money from the Mojia village bank!"


    "Uh huh!" Chumo nodded quickly, holding a pen in his hand.


    Merton suddenly realized that the three wanted to write their own checks. Needless to say, Merton knew what they were up to. He must want to show off in front of a bunch of dandies with checks.


    "You think you can withdraw money if you write a check indiscriminately! At that time, the Mojia village bank will take the check to ask the government for money. If you can''t take it out, it will damage the reputation of the government. I''m afraid the three uncles can''t spare you." Merton warned.


    When Qin Huaiyu thought of the consequences, they couldn''t help hesitating, but they were unwilling to give up the opportunity to show off.


    "Don''t we have the dividends of the food city? We don''t need the government to pay the bill." Qin Huaiyu gritted his teeth and said.


    "Yes, we don''t want to pay dividends. All of them will be changed into checks." Chumo''s eyes brightened.


    Merton pondered for a moment and said, "it''s not impossible, but I can only give you a check limit of 1000 yuan per person at most. If the total amount of your check exceeds 1000 yuan, the Mojia village bank will not pay. Don''t blame me for not being kind at that time."


    "A thousand passes is enough!" Qin Huaiyu and the three immediately opened with a happy smile.


    What they care about is the show of paying by check, and a thousand dollars is enough for them to show off.


    "Brother Mo, you really stand up for justice!" Wei Chi Baolin excitedly hammered Merton''s shoulder and immediately made Merton grin.


    "Well, go and find Mr. Shen to handle the check!" Merton quickly waved to make the three excited guys disappear.


    "Master Shen, doctor of mathematics?" Chumo suddenly stops and looks at Merton in surprise.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, they are acquaintances. Master Shen must know you."


    "What''s the matter? Master Shen didn''t become a doctor in the Imperial College. Well, how can he become the shopkeeper of your Mojia village bank?" Qin Huaiyu said in surprise.


    "What''s the difficulty? I''ll just ask Master Shen a word." Merton said proudly.


    Qin Huaiyu didn''t believe: "what words?"


    "I asked Mr. Shen if he was willing to open up a way to make a living for mathematics!" Merton said.


    The status of mathematics has always been very embarrassing. Even after learning, it has no use and often becomes a vassal of other theories. This is the best place for the bank to make mathematics shine. In addition, Shen Hongcai''s position in the Imperial College was very embarrassing because of the previous Tianzhu digital incident, so Shen Hongcai agreed without considering it for too long.


    When Qin Huaiyu thought of the Tianzhu digital event, they couldn''t help sighing: "master Shen is worthy of being a pioneer in mathematics. He is really dignified."


    Merton couldn''t help shaking his head and snickering. Although master Shen was for the future of mathematics, the rich remuneration of Mojia village was also very important. Shen Hongcai served as the chief manager of the Bank of Mojia village. His monthly salary, like Xu Jie, was 100 Guan, which was originally his salary in the Imperial College for one year.

 Chapter 832

    In the bank hall of Mojia village, master Shen handed over three checkbooks to Qin Huaiyu and solemnly ordered: "the handwritten amount of the check can be paid. Although it is convenient, you can''t see the cash, which is easy to get lost. You three should use them carefully, and this check can only be cashed in Chang''an city. You should remember."


    "Master, don''t worry. We must keep it in mind." Qin Huaiyu said respectfully as if they were in the Imperial College.


    When he was teaching in the Imperial College, Mr. Shen was very strict. In addition, the Tianzhu digital incident doubled the prestige of Mr. Shen''s students, not to mention that arithmetic was the best subject studied by Qin Huaiyu. Naturally, he was respectful to Mr. Shen.


    Seeing that the three were so obedient, master Shen couldn''t help feeling that the three most naughty students in the Imperial College had become the pillars of the country.


    However, without waiting for Mr. Shen to be happy for too long, Qin Huaiyu and his wife had just walked out of the bank hall. They suddenly showed their original appearance, cheered and jumped up, waved checkbooks in their hands and left happily.


    "The child..." master Shen shook his head and said with a laugh.


    "Master, don''t worry. Although they like to play, they are very measured in front of major right and wrong." Merton came over from one side and said with a smile. He knew Qin Huaiyu well and knew their temperament very well. I''m afraid they were just trying to show off.


    "And with the publicity of the three people, I''m afraid the check business of Mojia village bank will be carried out very smoothly." Merton smiled. Qin Huaiyu is a living advertising car. With them, in less than three days, the upper class nobles of Chang''an city will know the check business of Mojia village.


    "Are you going to promote the check business?" said master Shen in surprise. He always thought that the check business was prepared for mojiazi alone, and Qin Huaiyu was just an exception.


    "That''s nature! It''s never the idea of Mohism to enjoy one person alone, and the check business will naturally serve the public." Merton nodded.


    "If others sign, they can get money from the bank, but there are many risks!" said master Shen. Qin Huaiyu naturally trusts them. In addition, there is a foundation for dividends in the Food City, so there is no need to worry about default.


    However, if some swindlers open cheques and maliciously cheat money, the price will naturally be high.


    Merton nodded: "it''s natural to be on guard. All people who do cheques are customers of the bank. They must have a certain deposit in the bank as a deposit, and go through qualification review. Not everyone can start cheques casually."


    Mr. Shen nodded. In this era, credit is highly valued by the world. There are many examples of promise, and dignified people will not default. In addition, each checking account has a limit, and they can stop loss in time in case of fraud.


    "But how can we make a profit if we take such a big risk?" Mr. Shen frowned. Banks are the most unprofitable business when dealing with money.


    "Annual fee!" Merton said solemnly.


    "All checking accounts should charge an annual fee, and send bills to checking customers every month. If they exceed the limit, they should urge customers to repay in time, so as to stop losses in time."


    "What if someone overdraw a check and maliciously didn''t pay it back?" master Shen frowned.


    Merton said with a smile, "then you have to cooperate with Han Fuzi. There is a check in black and white. Only the law of the Tang Dynasty can punish him!"


    "Brother Han!" master Shen suddenly realized that he was more transparent about the operation of the bank.


    Although Dr. Shen has just started his job as the bank''s top manager, he is extremely satisfied. This is not because Merton gives him rich remuneration, but also psychological satisfaction. In any era, the most satisfying one is power and the other is money, and the money handled by Mojia village bank every day is a huge number, The sense of achievement is much stronger than a doctor of mathematics.


    And when he came into contact with the bank, he found that this is the holy land of mathematics. All the operations of the bank are under the control of numbers, extremely precise.


    "This is the future of mathematics!" master Shen was so excited that he immediately returned to the bank with confidence and continued to work.


    "If we get together today, we won''t get drunk!" Qin Huaiyu blushed excitedly in a restaurant and shouted to all the dandies.


    "Brother Qin is so happy today. Is he rich?" Li Zhenju, the eldest son of Li Ji, the British Duke, said with a smile.


    "Make a fortune?" Qin Huaiyu said with a contemptuous smile. "How can Qin see those copper smelling things? From now on, Qin will not bring another penny when he goes out."


    "Brother Qin is really noble. I admire him." a kind of dandy coaxed one after another.


    "But since brother Qin is penniless, can''t we have a overlord meal this time?" Liu Renshi, the eldest son of Liu Hongji, Duke of Kui, was surprised.


    Other people immediately looked at each other. They didn''t know what medicine Qin Huaiyu sold in his gourd. Qin Huaiyu treated but was penniless. Naturally, no one dared to stop them if they wanted to eat a overlord meal in their identity, but if it was passed to their father, I''m afraid the price would be extremely painful.


    "Overlord''s meal!" Qin Huaiyu raised her eyebrows, looked around and said proudly, "is my younger brother the kind of person who eats overlord''s meal?


    "Yes!"


    The dandies looked at each other and nodded one after another. However, they knew that Qin Huaiyu was very strict in family education and was very short of money. In order to make money, he could even set up a gambling game in the Imperial College. Only in the past two years, with the Mexican family and dividends, could they be rich. How could the dandies forget the previous black history.


    Suddenly, the waiter almost didn''t cry. If these dandies had a bully meal this time, I''m afraid he would be the most unlucky.


    Qin Huaiyu was immediately annoyed by the bad friends and said with a smile: "you''re just ignorant. Who says you can''t pay without money? I''ll show you today."


    A lot of dandies have cast their eyes that they don''t despise. It''s the first time they''ve seen what they say about eating overlord''s meal.


    Qin Huaiyu waved his hand, took out the checkbook from his arms, picked up the pen, Shua Shua, wrote the amount on the check, and solemnly signed his name.


    With a stab, Qin Huaiyu tore off the check, threw it smartly to the waiter and said, "take it, and take it as your tip."


    "A piece of paper?" the waiter almost couldn''t help crying. He didn''t expect Qin Huaiyu to stop eating overlord''s meal and use a piece of paper to pay the bill.


    "Is this... Check?"


    Just because the waiter doesn''t know the goods doesn''t mean that all the dandies don''t know the goods. Suddenly, everyone gathered around and grabbed a check from the second-hand shop and looked at it strangely.


    "Yes, this is the check, the check of Mojia village bank. As long as you take the check to Mojia village bank, the amount of this check will be changed into real gold and silver." Qin Huaiyu said proudly.


    "Didn''t it say that the check was specially designed for mojiazi in Mojia village?" Li Zhen said in surprise.


    "That''s natural, but I have a life-long friendship with brother mo. I''ve been through the window and carried a gun. My little brother wants a check, and brother Mo naturally agrees." Qin Huaiyu boasted.


    They didn''t doubt Qin Huaiyu''s words. After all, he and Mozi were classmates and had a very strong relationship. They had already known it.


    The people looked at the check in turn, and then they sent the check to the waiter.


    "Can I really withdraw money?" the waiter said dubiously. Naturally, he had heard of the check, but he was also the first time to encounter such a thing. How can he not doubt it.


    "Don''t worry, go and come back quickly. I''ll wait for you to come back?" Qin Huaiyu waved his big hand.


    "I can trust Mr. Qin''s reputation. You go to the Mojia village bank and I''ll arrange the dishes!" the shopkeeper came up after hearing the news. Then he would signal the waiter to get the money.


    Soon, delicacies came up one by one, but all the dandies were absent-minded. The delicious dishes in the past could not arouse their appetite, and everyone couldn''t help paying attention downstairs.


    "Shopkeeper, I''m back." the waiter who went to cash the check panted back.


    "What''s the matter, what does the Mojia village bank say?" the shopkeeper said anxiously. He seemed to believe Qin Huaiyu, but he didn''t want to offend these dandies. If the check couldn''t be cashed, it would be embarrassing to ask Qin Huaiyu for money.


    "The Bank of Mojia village cashed it, and it was all fine grain silver." the waiter took out a few tin silver from his arms and put it in front of the shopkeeper.


    "It''s true?" the shopkeeper checked the silver one by one. All of them were true. He was surprised. I don''t know whether he said silver or check.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, the check has been cashed. Here is your silver!" the shopkeeper deducted the meal fee and sent the rest of the silver to Qin Huaiyu''s box on a tray.


    "Wow!"


    Suddenly, all the dandies were in an uproar. The check simply opened their eyes. No one thought that simply signing their names could be used as silver.


    "Here you are, young master, how can you let these copper stinks stain your hands." Qin Huaiyu was so proud that he played with the checkbook in his hand.


    "Thank you, master Qin!" the shopkeeper immediately opened with a smile.


    A group of dandies envied this scene. In terms of reward, they sometimes made more generous moves than Qin Huaiyu, but they couldn''t compare with Qin Huaiyu''s scenery in any case.


    "Brother Qin, brother Qin!" suddenly Li Zhen flattered Qin Huaiyu.


    "What do you want?" Qin Huaiyu got goose bumps all over and hurriedly moved back.


    "Brother Qin, you have such a good relationship with brother mo. why don''t you talk to brother Mo and get a check for your little brother?" Li Zhen begged.


    "Yes, I''m going to do a check too." a group of dandies coaxed one after another.


    Not only do they have no money, but this method of paying by check is really cool. It''s just too appetizing to a kind of dandy.


    Qin Huaiyu raised his glass and drank it at a draught. He was proud of the people: "friendship is friendship. Even my brothers have to settle accounts clearly. My younger brother only exchanged the dividends of the food city for a thousand checks. You also want checks. I''m afraid you have to show your sincerity!"


    "Isn''t it money? I''ll put the money in the Mojia village bank tomorrow."


    "Yes, the most important thing for my brothers is money!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of dandies shouted that they did not lack money. What they lacked was these ostentatious ways, and checks were to meet their needs.


    Soon, as the cheques of a group of dandies were processed, the payment method of cheques soon became popular among the upper aristocrats in Chang''an City and soon became a symbol of identity.


    The credit era of Datang is coming thousands of years ahead of schedule.

 Chapter 833

    Even Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin can see them all over the street, not to mention how Qin Huaiyu beats them.


    "Shopkeeper, pay the bill!"


    In front of a jewelry store, Chumo waved his hand and handed the written check to the shopkeeper of the jewelry store.


    "Thank you, Master Cheng!" the shopkeeper accepted it without hesitation. Gossip has always spread very rapidly in Chang''an city. Since Qin Huaiyu used his first check in Chang''an City, the magic of the check has spread all over Chang''an city.


    A pretty girl beside Chumo opens her mouth in surprise and looks at the scene in surprise. This is Chumo''s engaged fiancee. Fortunately, under the leadership of Merton, the marriage and love atmosphere in Datang is further opened. Chumo has the opportunity to lead him out to go shopping. Naturally, he should perform well.


    Chumo lowers his head to explain the subtlety of the check to his fiancee. The girl nods repeatedly, and her eyes are colorful. She is also a miss. She doesn''t lack money on weekdays. However, the way Chumo pays the bill really attracts her.


    At present, they appeared in the streets of Chang''an City, as if there were endless topics, and their feelings were quietly filled in them.


    When they were shopping, they even met Wei Chi Baolin, who also led his fiancee shopping. They nodded tacitly.


    People like them have been engaged for a long time, but Wei Chi Baolin is more pitiful. His fiancee is younger. I''m afraid it will take a long time to get married.


    Driven by Qin Huaiyu, the cheques of Mojia village bank became popular in Chang''an City, making the bank famous. Even people who no longer pay attention to the bank have long heard of the bank.


    However, in the eyes of the world, banks are just talk after dinner. In the eyes of businessmen, they are a convenient tool. However, among another group of people, the bank was shocked like thunder, that is, Ziqian family, an extremely mysterious family in Datang.


    It is also a capital operation and takes money as its industry. It can be said that the various operations of Mojia village bank surprised Ziqian family. All along, Ziqian family makes a living by printing money. At the same time, it manipulates a number of gray industrial chains behind it to make huge profits. It never thought that money could be made like this.


    "Why is the income so small in recent months?" a young man in royal clothes, led by him, hummed coldly in a secret room of the largest Qianzhuang Yuanxiang bank in Chang''an city.


    On both sides, the shopkeepers were silent, hung their heads, and dared not make a sound.


    "Back to the young owner, since Mo magazine exposed that the Great Mercy Temple released printing money and Tongji was imprisoned, the Buddhists began to save themselves. Many temples no longer cooperate with the Zi Qian family. Moreover, due to the existence of Mo magazine and other newspapers, we dare not force us to collect loans as before. Some money has not been collected yet, which is the reason for the sudden reduction of income." The chief manager of Yuanxiang bank, who was headed by, said in a trembling voice.


    "Mo magazine! Mo family!" the young man in royal clothes said in a voice.


    The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank nodded and said, "young master, you are wise. Ink magazine is supported by Mohists. You act recklessly. You have made the Buddhists disheartened before. For fear of damaging the important affairs of Zi Qian''s family, you are ordered to act carefully."


    The young man in royal clothes looked a little slow, nodded and said, "you didn''t do anything wrong this time!"


    The powerful power of Ink magazine shocked all the dark sides. If the ashen face of the Great Mercy Temple is the best example, the reputation of the Ziqian family is not good. If it is publicized again, it will be even more notorious.


    "Mojiazi also publicized his game of a penny in ink magazines, which made the world avoid printing money like snakes and scorpions. Now there are many fewer people coming to the bank to lend money." a shopkeeper complained.


    The biggest threat to Indian money is the so-called Penny game. Everyone doesn''t care about a penny. Who could have thought that a penny turned to 500 million dollars in a month, which makes the world have a clear understanding of the harm of Indian money and avoid it one after another. Some people don''t borrow indian money even if they have no way to invest.


    "Ink magazine! A penny game!" the young man in royal clothes could not help but sink his face. Naturally, he had heard of the game of a penny of the Mohist school. Although the game of a penny seemed to be the work of the game, it exposed the essence of Indian money, and exaggerated the harm to the extreme. In addition, the publicity of Ink magazine and the harm of Indian money all along came all at once in the Tang Dynasty, Let Zi Qian''s bad reputation suddenly become more notorious.


    "First reduce some interest and make the contract more hidden. Mozi hasn''t been born yet because of the existence of Ziqian family? How can he be defeated by a game of Mozi family." the young man in royal guards snorted coldly.


    "Less wise boss!" the shopkeepers were relieved and finally passed the pass.


    "Not only that, Mojia village is extremely stubborn and has an abnormal prejudice against us. Previously, we wanted to open a gambling shop and brothel in Mojia village, but we were not only driven out by Mojia village, but also lost a lot of manpower." another shopkeeper complained.


    Brothel gambling house and Ziqian family are inextricably linked. Mojia village is an emerging place. It was originally a treasure pot of Ziqian family, but it didn''t expect to be extremely exclusive to Ziqian family and directly drive the business of brothel gambling house out of Mojia village.


    "What''s more hateful is that the Mozi family even wants to get involved in the money business. They even set up banks in the Mozi village, Chang''an and Luoyang. Over time, it must be a big trouble for my son Qian family.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Almost all the shopkeepers accuse mojiazi,


    "Bank!"


    The young man in royal clothes couldn''t help but burst out a glimmer of brilliance in his eyes. Naturally, he heard that the Bank of Mojia village, which had been shining brightly in Chang''an City recently. Even if he was dissatisfied with Mojia Zi, he had to applaud the wisdom of Mojia Zi.


    First of all, it sounds that banks are definitely too tall than banks. Their names alone have been decided.


    Second, the bank''s bill of exchange business makes him excited. According to his eyes, he can see how broad the prospect of bill of exchange business is, and it almost collects money. Compared with Ziqian''s notorious underground bank, the bank not only collects money openly, but also has a good reputation.


    What makes the young man in royal clothes jealous is that when it comes to the money he handles, he claims that he is not inferior to the Mohist family. He is not without the heroism of spending a lot of money. However, all this has almost become a laughing stock in front of the Mohist family''s check.


    Mojiazi only needs to write down the amount and signature to use it as silver. This operation is not comparable to taking out a handful of silver from his arms and smashing it on the waiter. One is elegant and the other is rude. It''s a difference between clouds and mud.


    "Young master, why don''t we follow the example of Mojia Zi''s money order business? Just cheer up and join forces with major banks. Ziqian''s banks are all over the Tang Dynasty. Now there are only five banks and two are under construction, so we can certainly snatch this fat meat from Mojia Zi." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said proudly, Obviously, he is also very excited about the bill business of mojiacun bank.


    "Yes, we can not only avenge the money order business, but also add a huge source of wealth to my son Qian''s family." other shopkeepers agreed one after another. Now Ziqian''s money printing business is not progressing well. If the bill business can be carried out, Ziqian can not only make up for the losses, but also make a lot of profits.


    The young man in royal clothes snorted coldly: "I naturally know that the money order business has great prospects, but you can see why Ziqian family never thought of doing so."


    The shopkeepers immediately looked at each other and shook their heads.


    "That''s because we are Ziqian''s family. Every Ziqian''s family is a wolf who eats people and doesn''t spit bones. If we have the opportunity to swallow other Ziqian''s family, we will definitely do so without hesitation. We want us to trust each other and hand over the money to our opponents. I''m afraid the sun will come out from the West." the young man in royal clothes snorted coldly.


    The shopkeepers couldn''t help lowering their heads. They knew the character of the Ziqian family. Naturally, they knew that what the little owner said was true. If they were, I''m afraid they wouldn''t believe other Ziqian families.


    The chief manager of Yuanxiang bank retorted: "What the young master said is very true. If it had not been united before, but now the Mojia village bank has appeared and is expanding. If the business of Mojia village bank is expanded to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, the money order business will be willing and powerless. With this interest, the young master cheered up. It will certainly succeed, and can curb the expansion of Mojia village bank and bring the Mojia village into full play The village bank is in the bud. "


    It has to be said that the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank is extremely eager to win. He has such a unique vision. If there are more foreign enemies, it is possible for the Ziqian family to unite.


    Other shopkeepers nodded that Ziqian family in other places may not feel the pressure of Mojia village bank, but they bear the brunt. The grand occasion of Chang''an City bank makes them feel full threat.


    The young man in royal clothes, who was led by him, pondered for a moment, shook his head and sighed: "I naturally know that the Bank of Mojia village will become a big trouble for the bank sooner or later, and I also know the prospect of the bill business, but it will be a thousand years and ten thousand years to persuade other children Qian family."


    "Why?" the shopkeepers didn''t understand.


    The young man in royal guards said helplessly: "Ziqian family has existed since ancient times. It not only has a bad reputation, but also is a piece of fat meat in the eyes of the imperial court. If you have the opportunity, the imperial court will certainly want to squeeze the last penny out of Ziqian family''s pocket. The most important step for Ziqian family to survive is that we Ziqian family hide deep enough. There are only a few banks in the open. The imperial court finds out these banks, It''s just cutting leeks, and it''s hard to hurt our roots. "


    The shopkeepers nodded one after another.


    "But if we want to get involved in the money order business, we must put the bank in the open like a bank. In this way, my son Qian''s family will become the fish on the chopping board of the court and can be slaughtered. Even if I have the courage to do a big job, I''m afraid I can''t convince other son Qian''s family." the young man in royal clothes sighed.


    The shopkeepers are silent. This is the way of life of the Zi Qian family for thousands of years. How can they take the initiative to expose themselves to the sun because of a little interest.


    "Can''t we just watch the rising of Mojia village bank and have nothing to do!" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said dejectedly.


    The young man in royal clothes shook his head and said, "of course we can''t sit back and watch the rise of banks."


    Although banks and banks are nominally different, and Mojia village is now very restrained and has not set foot in the sub money business, people with a clear eye can see that one day, the two sides will eventually embark on confrontation.


    "Please make it clear," the shopkeepers listened.


    "Silver ticket!" the young man in royal clothes said word by word, shaking his hands at his fingertips, and a stack of brand-new silver tickets appeared impressively.


    The shopkeepers were stunned. No one thought that the little owner would have a silver ticket issued by Mojia village in his hand.


    "The young master means..." they were puzzled.


    The young man in royal guards showed a trace of coldness: "The time limit of the bill is very short, and there is a secret code. It needs to be picked up by a specially assigned person. It is not easy to copy. The check involves local dignitaries. In addition, people who are not familiar with it will not accept it. The silver note is different. As long as the silver note is in our hands, the Mexican bank will pay the silver person at any time. If our money family can make a silver note ¡£¡±


    The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank suddenly realized: "the little owner means that our son Qian''s family will imitate the silver note!"


    "Wonderful," a group of shopkeepers applauded one after another. If they could copy silver notes, wouldn''t it say that they could use Mojia village bank as an ATM.


    "But I heard that Mojia village has spent so much effort on silver tickets. There are more than ten anti-counterfeiting means alone. These are the top secret ink skills of Mojia village." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank hesitated.


    "How many can be cracked is how many. Even if we can''t confuse the fake with the real, we can at least fool the ordinary people!" the young man in royal guards snorted coldly.


    If he can copy the silver ticket, even if he can''t deceive the shopkeeper of Mojia village and get a lot of money, he can also deceive some ordinary people, ruin the reputation of the silver ticket and make the silver ticket of Mojia village a complete failure.


    People all over the world believe that the money order is the source of wealth of the Bank of Mojia village, but he keenly found that the silver note is the cornucopia of the bank. In particular, the bank backs on Mojia village and forcibly promotes the silver note to all aspects of life in Mojia village. The saved Silver can make Mojia village instantly hold a huge amount of wealth. Even it is no exaggeration to say that after owning the Bank of Mojia village, Mojia Village The total assets of the village doubled out of thin air.


    "Double the assets?" in the Bank of Mojia village, rumors from the outside naturally came in. Master Shen shook his head and said with a laugh.


    Silver tickets can not only be printed for one or two silver coins. As long as Mojia village is willing, it can print as many silver tickets as it wants. Of course, the greater the risk.


    According to his precise calculation, as long as the gold and silver stored in the bank accounts for 30% of the issued silver notes, it can ensure the smooth flow of the silver notes and maintain their value. That is to say, if it can, the bank can even print three times more silver notes of gold and silver, at least three times more assets.


    "Now silver tickets are only used in Mojia village. There is no need to issue too many, just issue them one by one." Merton shook his head and rejected the temptation of Shen Fuzi to issue more silver tickets.


    The earliest paper money jiaozi in history had encountered this temptation. After a painful lesson, it gradually became formal.


    Mojia village bank has just started. It is time to make a reputation. The bank is the top priority in Mojia''s future planning. He doesn''t want the bank to make any mistakes.


    Second, although silver notes are only issued in Mojia village, they concentrate all the gold and silver in the bank, and there is no panic in the palm of the hand. The inside information of Mojia village has doubled, so there is no need to take a big leap forward adventure.


    Finally, the silver note is paper money after all. If you rashly let the world see the benefits of paper money, it will certainly cause crazy pursuit. In the end, it is the ordinary people who suffer. It is better to let Mojia village show the paper money to the world step by step.


    "Of course, no additional issuance now does not mean no additional issuance in the future. In the future, banks will eliminate some damaged silver notes every year and take the opportunity to issue another batch. Remember, we must ensure that the reserve is within the safe range. You should know that the status of Mohism is not stable, and emergencies and accidents may occur at any time."


    "I understand!" said master Shen solemnly.


    Facts have proved that Merton''s caution did not go wrong, but he did not expect that the secret conspiracy should come so quickly. The Ziqian family has begun to lay out quietly against the silver ticket.

 Chapter 834

    In fact, not only the Ziqian family''s plot against the silver note, but also chaotang''s three businesses of the bank are in an uproar. After all, paper can be used as silver. This is a strange story in the world, but the mojiazi succeeded.


    "Tell your majesty that mojiazi''s money order is worth one hundred. It''s a bandit''s way. Since I calmed down the world in the Tang Dynasty, the bandit has never dared to be so bold." Yu Zhining angrily denounced mojiazi''s money order business, and even compared mojiazi''s money order business to a bandit who blocked the way and robbed.


    "What''s more outrageous is that mojiazi''s check business uses paper as money. It''s a strange story in the world!" a literary minister echoed and denounced.


    Since his son used mojiazi''s check, he spent hundreds of dollars in just a few days. Mojiazi used paper as money, and his son simply used money as paper.


    "Tell your majesty that the minister impeached the Mohist School and skillfully seized the people''s fat and ointment, and gave the paper money to the workers. It''s just like sucking the bone and sucking the marrow. It''s extremely greedy and the people''s anger is towering. It''s even more outrageous than the White Deer money of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." a censor roared with righteous indignation.


    The White Deer coin was forced by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to sell white deer skin to dignitaries during the financial crisis of the Han Dynasty. It is said that when it was the most expensive, a white deer coin was directly priced at 400000 yuan, but it was worthless and became a decoration. The mojiazi''s silver ticket business is even more hateful in the eyes of the ministers. The white deer skin is still a treasure and has a little value. However, the mojiazi has written the amount directly on paper and used it as money. In the eyes of the stubborn generation, it is simply rubbing their IQ on the ground.


    The officials were filled with righteous indignation and immediately turned into Bao Qingtian, asking for orders for the people, redressing the grievances for the workers and crusading against the largest capitalist Mo Jiazi.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but cover his forehead with a headache. He naturally knew about Merton''s opening a bank. Originally, he thought that the bank was just a place for the Mohist family to deposit money, but he didn''t expect that the Mohist family should be so big, which made the people of the Tang Dynasty have an impact on their understanding of money.


    "Ministry of punishment, can people appeal to Mojia village?" Li Shimin turned his mind and asked Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment.


    Li daozong shook his head and said, "back to your majesty, no people appealed to Mojia village, and according to the minister, as long as you go to the Bank of Mojia village, you can exchange bills, silver notes and cheques into full-fledged cash, without deduction and greed for ink."


    Li daozong was familiar with Merton and finally said a fair word for Merton.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "since the three kinds of bills can be exchanged for the same amount of silver, the people have no loss and have a lot of convenience, how can the imperial court interfere too much."


    Many ministers nodded one after another. Everyone in the court was the most intelligent person in the Tang Dynasty. When people with a clear eye saw it, they knew that banks were much better than notorious banks.


    "Your Majesty, think twice!" Yu Zhining cried bitterly. "Did your majesty ever think that now the Mojia village maintains its reputation and pays in full unconditionally, but over time, the Mojia village is short of money, how can it not misappropriate these money. At that time, bills of exchange, silver notes and cheques will become a piece of waste paper, and the people will suffer heavy losses or even have nothing left."


    "It''s impossible!"


    "How can the Mohists allow these things to happen."


    People can''t help but burst into an uproar. If these bills of exchange and silver bills are really reduced to a piece of waste paper, the trouble will be caused.


    "This..." Li Shimin hesitated. Although he believed in Merton, money and silk moved people since ancient times. Who can guarantee it!


    "Prevention is the fundamental solution. If you wait until the day of the accident, I''m afraid it''s too late to say anything.


    "That''s what Aiqing meant..." Li Shimin asked with a frown.


    A minister in charge of the Ministry of civil affairs and Yu Zhining looked at each other vaguely and proudly said, "tell your majesty that since Mojia village has issued silver tickets, let Mojia village store the silver equivalent of the issued silver tickets in the Ministry of civil affairs. In this way, even if the decline of Mojia village is compensated by the imperial court, the people will not suffer losses."


    "The equivalent silver is deposited in the Ministry of the people?" immediately, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned by the words of the Minister of the Ministry of the people.


    Although more people knew it was wrong, they kept silent in the face of such great interests. Dai Zhou, led by the Ministry of the people, moved in his heart and sighed, but did not speak.


    "In my opinion, the Ministry of the people is poor and crazy! You just denounced the Mohist school as a Bashan bandit. Don''t you think your behavior is more hateful than the bandits?" Qin Qiong angrily scolded.


    "In particular, these robbers forcibly plundered other people''s wealth in the absence of their master." Cheng Yaojin smiled and said sarcastically.


    Many officials could not help blushing, but they could sit in the court. Which one was not thick faced and black hearted and turned a deaf ear to it.


    Yu Zhining came forward and retorted, "what general Qin said is biased. We are only for the people of the world."


    Yuchi Jingde snorted coldly, "silver tickets are only used in Mojia village. There are mohou''s fiefs. There are all Mojia villagers. How can it harm other people? If I can''t even do this in my own fief, it''s a joke."


    Many princes with fiefs are embarrassed. In fact, as long as you don''t rebel or harm the people, their autonomy is great. Moreover, the silver ticket is only implemented in Mojia village. It can be said that the Mojia Zi has been extremely restrained and is not suspected of deviating from the rules.


    When Li Shimin saw that the princes were dissatisfied, he flashed and said, "Merton has always wanted to revive the Mohist school, and the Mohist village is the foundation of the Mohist school. If you want to, you won''t sit against the Mohist villagers."


    Yu Zhining retorted: "Your Majesty, today''s Mojia village is not only the children of the Mojia family, but the majority of the migrant population. In particular, the Mojia village has recently built a lot of houses in the Mojia village, which has attracted many people to buy. In addition, the migrant workers and merchants have as many as 30000 migrant population. These are not Mojia villagers!"


    "There are also bills of exchange and cheques popular in Chang''an City, which is not a small hidden danger," said Lang Lang, Minister of civil affairs.


    Suddenly, the ministers argued one after another. Some thought that the Ministry of the people made a mountain out of a molehill, while others thought that the Ministry of the household was quite forward-looking. Suddenly, there was a quarrel.


    "I don''t know what you have to say." seeing this, Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at the important minister headed by him.


    The dignitaries looked at each other. To tell the truth, they were also confused about the bank''s business. After looking at each other, Fang Xuanling was helpless to say: "Your Majesty, I have heard that although the bank is worth one hundred, it is worth it compared with the risk of long-distance transportation of silver. This is a good thing. As for silver notes and cheques, the allusion of promise can be realized."


    Qin Qiong and others nodded one after another. In their view, the bank was a stroke of genius.


    However, Fang Xuanling''s voice changed: "as for the risk that the Minister of civil affairs and Yu adults are worried about, it is not unreasonable."


    "Old fox!"


    The ministers could not help but scold secretly. Fang Xuanling went around and said nothing.


    "However, based on the old minister''s understanding of marquis Mo, he works very steadily. If he doesn''t recruit him to the Tai Chi hall to solve his doubts in public, he thinks there must be a proper solution." Fang Xuanling said.


    "Summon Merton to the court." Li Shimin couldn''t help himself.


    I don''t know when the whole court seemed to reject Merton. After all, there was a yellow haired boy around a group of gray haired old men. It can be said that everyone didn''t adapt.


    In addition, Merton''s official position is not high and he doesn''t like going to court. Unless it''s necessary, I''m afraid no one wants to call Merton to court. Moreover, with Merton''s only experience in going to court, this boy can always make great things.


    Li Shimin thought for a while. I''m afraid that now there is only one way to call Merton to court again.


    "Somebody, call me Merton!" then Li Shimin stopped hesitating and said in a loud voice.


    "Please see your majesty!"


    Merton walked into the Tai Chi hall with his head held high, and Lang Sheng said.


    To tell the truth, he is still confused. Before he came, he carefully reflected on his recent behavior. It seems that there is nothing to provoke public anger! How could he be recruited to the Tai Chi hall?


    Li Shimin didn''t know how to say it, so he had to falter and say, "Merton, I summoned you today because all officials want to play against you."


    Merton turned to the officials, patted his chest and said, "gentlemen, I''m sure you know everything and say everything."


    Seeing Merton''s Frank face, many ministers were ashamed. It seemed that they really bullied people, but when they thought of the previous achievements of the MOH family, everyone immediately put this sympathy behind them.


    Yu Zhining won''t be confused by the simple and honest appearance of the Mo family. At that moment, he snorted coldly: "Merton, you don''t have to pretend. You used to fool around. We only think you are young and frivolous. However, this time, you are so greedy and wantonly absorb the people''s fat and cream. It''s impossible."


    Merton was surprised and said, "the boy didn''t serve as a civil servant. It''s too reluctantly for adults to slander the boy to absorb the fat and cream of the people!"


    Many civil servants were confused for a while. If they didn''t serve as civil servants, they didn''t absorb the fat and cream of the people and regarded them as civil servants.


    Cheng Yaojin and other generals immediately grinned and laughed recklessly when they heard the speech. Seeing that Merton still had sharp teeth and sharp mouth, their worries immediately disappeared.


    "Merton can''t talk nonsense. Just answer your questions truthfully!" Li Shimin''s face was stiff and stopped Merton''s nonsense.


    Yu Zhining and others held it for a long time. Only then did they have a peaceful mind and angrily count the three crimes of Mojia village bank


    "A bill of exchange is like a bandit standing in the way and robbing others."


    "Seizing silver tickets and plundering villagers'' wealth and ointment.................."


    "Cheques confuse people, make people extravagant, extravagant and licentious............."


    With Yu Zhining''s crimes one by one, Merton suddenly realized the purpose of these people. Maybe some people are really worried about the country and the people, but I''m afraid they are more jealous of the money earned by the Mojia village. To tell the truth, anyone who sees that the Bank of the Mojia village has doubled its property out of thin air will also be jealous.


    Now Merton sneered: "Since ancient times, there has been a police motto in the world, that is, wealth is not revealed. A few copper coins may not be attracted by people, but the white silver has caused numerous cases of people being stolen, robbed or even murdering for money on their way out of the Ministry of justice. In years of turmoil, bandits and robbers kill and rob people. The bill business can only be received by themselves or designated people , it can be said that the risk of letting people carry money is greatly reduced, but I didn''t expect to be slandered as bandits and bandits by you. It really makes Mo feel cold! "


    Li daozong, who was led by Li daozong, nodded. Since ancient times, wealth and wealth have moved people''s hearts, and there are many examples of murder. Coupled with the backward technology of solving cases, such cases are extremely difficult to detect, which makes the Ministry of punishment backlog a large number of cases. The emergence of bills of exchange greatly reduces the risk of carrying gold and silver, which can be said to reduce a lot of pressure on the Ministry of punishment.


    It is precisely for this reason that the bill business in Mojia village is so popular. In this era, it is a great risk to carry a large amount of silver. If you change the silver into a bill and put it in the bank, you can get it from the bank when necessary. Even some transactions can be carried out face-to-face in the bank, which is extremely safe.


    "The bank takes advantage of the world''s psychology. It''s worth a hundred. It''s like a bandit sitting on the ground to collect money." Leng hum, the Minister of household.


    Merton laughed and said, "you can''t compare the bank to a bandit. I have a limerick about bandits. Would you be interested to listen to it?"


    "Bandit''s Limerick! Bandits can write poetry!" the crowd couldn''t help laughing, but many civil servants involuntarily turned their contemptuous eyes to the military generals aside. You know, in the court hall, there are many generals who all came from the anti thief background in those years, and bandits do a lot of business.


    "I''d like to hear it," Li Shimin said with great interest.


    Merton didn''t seem to see the difference among the officials. Lang said, "I opened the mountain and planted the tree. If you want to think about this road,......."


    "Stay and buy road money!" unexpectedly, before Merton finished, he heard a shout of anger from the generals.


    The crowd was stunned and turned to look. It was complacent Cheng Yaojin who took the last sentence.


    "I said Mo boy, you even know my slogan of being a bandit?" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise.


    Qin Qiong on one side smiled and scolded, "is it still a hidden thing for your old boy to be a bandit? How many people in the world don''t know."


    Cheng Yaojin was not ashamed, but thought he was proud and said, "I was a righteous bandit in those days, but I didn''t try to kill people for money. As long as I paid the tolls for the business trip, I wouldn''t be embarrassed. And I''ll keep it smooth."


    Other generals who have become bandits can not help but be arrogant. They will not be as short-sighted as ordinary bandits if they can go to today.


    Merton smiled: "General Cheng''s slogan can be rough or not. This mountain is opened for me and this tree is planted by me. If you want to think about this road and stay to buy road wealth, Mojia village prepares to set up a bank. It not only spends a lot of money inviting public losers to build the safest bank, but also spends a lot of manpower and material resources to develop various secret techniques and codes, and transfers the risk of losing gold and silver borne by the people to the bank Is it too much to charge only one hundred dollars? "


    Many people nodded one after another. They only saw the Mojia village bank eating meat, but they didn''t see the risk paid by the Mojia village bank. Moreover, the Mojia village bank limited the cost of one hundred to one, which is already the price of conscience.


    "If even the court is against it, I don''t know what you think of the brick road charge!" Merton retorted coldly.


    Yu Zhining and others couldn''t help but grow up and couldn''t speak. Compared with the Bank of Mojia village, which was worth one hundred, the imperial court collected tolls on the road blocked by the Longhai line. I''m afraid it''s more like a bandit''s Limerick.


    "What about the silver notes and cheques? If one day the Mojia village bank cannot cash the cash, who should bear the risk?" Yu Zhining argued.


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help being silent and said, "you''re right about this. There is really a big risk. If the Mojia village can''t cash these silver notes and checks, it''s really a piece of waste paper and worthless."


    The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar. They had just been refuted by mojiazi with bandits'' limericks in the bill business. Originally, they thought that mojiazi would argue on silver and checks, but they didn''t expect that mojiazi would admit it without resistance.


    In an instant, Yu Zhining and others could not help smiling at the success of their treachery. The bill business was dispensable, and their focus had always been on the silver note. As long as they controlled the cash in Mojia village, they naturally had some means to make it difficult for Mojia village to move.

 Chapter 835

    Merton didn''t seem to be aware of the sinister intentions of Yu Zhining and others. He continued to expose his family''s ugliness and said, "what''s more terrible is that the opening of a bank in Mojia village and the acquisition of a large amount of cash in a short time will certainly make countless people quite excited. If the world scrambles to follow suit and issue silver tickets, then the silver tickets will flood wantonly, just like a piece of waste paper, it will be a real disaster."


    The officials were in an uproar. They didn''t expect that the Mojia Zi had exposed another big loophole. Since ancient times, people have died for money and birds. The Mojia village must have attracted countless people to obtain such great benefits in a short time. Over time, countless people must follow suit, but the time when the bank was established is too short and the world hasn''t had time.


    Yu Zhining was overjoyed when he heard the speech, and immediately scolded with high spirits: "Mohist, you are simply bold. The people of the Tang Dynasty are simple and live and work in peace and contentment, and you pioneered the bank, putting the property of the people all over the world at risk. If you are careless, the trust of the people all over the world will be destroyed once the rites and music collapse, and Kong shengqian''s education will become empty talk. You know your sin!"


    Yu Zhining''s accusation is not heavy. The ancients ruled the country with courtesy, but the issuance of Bank silver notes is a sign of unrest. If you are careless, you may lead to a great disaster, which the Mohists can''t afford.


    Other ministers also echoed, accusing Merton of making claims and becoming a sign of unrest.


    Qin Qiong couldn''t help showing concern when she saw Merton being denounced. However, he was very confident in Merton''s past achievements, so she endured not to come forward.


    "Merton, what''s your excuse!" Li Shimin said helplessly. According to the ministers, it seems that the bank has become the source of all evil.


    In an instant, the officials were ready. According to the past practice, this will be the time for Mohist Zi to fight back.


    Sure enough, Merton Lang said in a voice: "Your Majesty, when I opened the bank, I had predicted all the worries of all ministers today. However, I still chose to open the bank because the bank is a double-edged sword, which can hurt both people and myself. But if we use it properly, it will be a unique weapon."


    "Peerless weapon!" the crowd couldn''t help but give a meal. They didn''t expect that mojiazi would pay so much attention to the bank. Yu Zhining and others couldn''t help looking at each other. The more important things Mozi valued, the less they could let Mozi succeed,


    "That''s right." Merton said proudly, "first of all, the world has been suffering from the weight of money for a long time, so it''s not necessary to mention the bill business. It''s said that the silver bill has incomparable advantages over Silver and copper money. First, changing the heavy copper money into paper money as thin as cicada''s wings greatly facilitates the daily life of the people.


    Everyone nodded. At this point, the silver ticket does have great advantages. Moreover, mojiazi divides the silver ticket into one or two, one money and one point, which makes it very convenient for people to carry and cash the silver. Coupled with the reputation of Mojia village and mojiazi, this is also the reason why the Silver ticket can be implemented so quickly.


    "Secondly, silver tickets can also reduce the loss of silver and copper money. Once they have money, many people will be buried underground for fear of being stolen. Over time, copper rust is everywhere, silver is soft, and there are many losses in daily use. Silver tickets can perfectly avoid such problems."


    Dai Zhou, the minister in charge of the Ministry of the people, nodded involuntarily. He was in charge of the Ministry of the people. Naturally, he knew these disadvantages, and there were many losses in the Tang Dynasty every year.


    "Finally, the biggest function of silver ticket is to solve the problem of copper shortage." Merton finally threw a deep-water bomb.


    "Copper shortage!" All the officials were in an uproar. The shortage of copper is a headache for Datang. You know, Datang''s copper price rises every year because of the shortage of copper money. However, Datang''s economy is growing, and the demand for copper is almost unlimited. However, the mining technology of copper in this era is backward, and it can''t meet the demand at all. If we can solve the problem of copper shortage in Datang, it will be great It''s a great achievement.


    "Your Majesty, it can be imagined that one silver note can replace one hundred copper coins, and one silver note can replace ten copper coins. People only need a stack of paper money and a few copper coins to settle accounts. Unlike today, everyone carries a bag full of copper coins. If the daily chemical silver note is popularized in the world, only 10% of the demand for copper money in Datang can be enough. This is the radical cure of Datang "The best way of copper shortage," Morton said proudly.


    "Ten percent of the copper money is enough!" Li Shimin''s eyes suddenly flashed a light. If according to Merton, the role of the silver note can not be ignored by everyone.


    "Mojiazi, you are so bold that you dare to promote these harmful banknotes to the world without harming Mojia village. It is a heinous crime." the Minister of household exclaimed.


    In fact, all the ministers were in an uproar and broke into a cold sweat for Mozi''s bold idea.


    Merton laughed and said, "why not? We all avoid paper money like snakes and scorpions, but Mo believes that paper money is the third generation of money, which is the general trend of the future and has great prospects."


    "The third generation currency, what do you say?" Dai Zhou, who had been silent, suddenly said.


    Merton looked around and said proudly, "it''s a long story. It''s a secret of Mohism. Since it''s up to now, Mohism will not hide."


    "The secret of Mohism!"


    All of us immediately stood up and listened. Although Mohism had been silent for thousands of years, after Merton''s continuous publicity, everyone dared not despise Mohism at all.


    "Money is also commonly known as money. Before the three emperors and five emperors, there was no money in the world. At that time, the way of trading ancestors was barter, an axe for a sheep and two sheep for a cow. This kind of trading was very unstable. If I took a bag of grain and went to the market to exchange, I might run for a day and do nothing. At this time, money came into being, That is the shell, the first generation of money. "


    Li Shimin and Dai Zhou nodded. Merton explained the reason why shells are money in the silk system of the Tang Dynasty.


    Other ministers are people who read poems and books. After a little thinking, they immediately understand the reasons. There is no dispute that shells have become the first generation of currency. After all, the old ancestors have decided in writing.


    Merton then said, "however, shells have great disadvantages. They are fragile, low value and difficult to carry. With the continuous trading and exploration of the ancients, they finally found two kinds of metals that are not easy to damage, high value and easy to cut."


    "Gold and silver!"


    This time the answer came to everyone''s mind. Merton was talking about the familiar gold and silver.


    "Yes, gold and silver are the second generation of money," said Merton Lang, "And it is a well deserved recognized currency in the world. Copper is just an auxiliary currency. The ancestors of Mohism have footprints all over the world. They found that almost all civilized countries have gold and silver. Of course, many foolish people still stay in the first generation of currency or barter."


    The people in the Ministry of rites could not help nodding slightly, which was very consistent with what they knew.


    "Here, Mo can tell you the good news of making a fortune. Due to the different wealth of gold, silver and copper mines in various countries, the exchange ratio of the three is also inconsistent. In Datang, one or two gold can be exchanged for twelve silver, while in some countries, one or two gold can be exchanged for at least twenty-two silver. This is a great business."


    "Hiss!"


    Almost everyone took a breath at once. If Merton''s words were true, it would be enough to plunder the wealth of a country and call it a great business. In an instant, many people were so excited that they couldn''t help but turn their eyes to the officials of the Ministry of rites. I''m afraid only the Ministry of rites knows the news of other countries except Mohist Zi.


    Even Li Shimin was so excited that if there was such a price difference, he could obtain great benefits without a single soldier, which was an irresistible temptation for the imperial court.


    "The great Mohist school now has a bad reputation. It will give up such heavy profits and make it public to the world." Yu Zhining snorted coldly.


    Merton retorted, "the Mohist school makes money by making use of the secret skills of the Mohist school to benefit the country, the people and themselves, but it has never hoarded strange things and bid up prices. If the Mohist school wants to make money, it will only use the goods produced by the Mohist village to get remuneration. Every article of the money earned is innocent, and it will never use the second method."


    Li Shimin also suppressed his desire and said with a big hand: "well, I naturally know that Mohism is a model of craftsmanship, not a sneaky businessman, but don''t cut the topic. For the time being, what''s the matter with the third generation currency?"


    Merton then returned to the theme: "However, although gold and silver are natural currencies, they are not without shortcomings. They are too heavy, easy to wear out, and extremely rare. Therefore, most of China uses gold, silver and copper as currencies at the same time. However, with the continuous development of society, the problem of money shortage is becoming more and more serious. In addition to the fact that the world likes to bury gold, silver and copper money underground, there is another fundamental reason is the shortage of gold, silver and copper Rare.


    The Manchu courtiers nodded one after another.


    "It is conceivable that with the continuous development of the Tang Dynasty, the problem of money shortage will certainly be further exacerbated, so the third currency will emerge at the historic moment, that is, paper money represented by silver notes, which Weichen calls credit currency." Merton took a deep breath.


    "Credit currency!"


    The Manchu officials suddenly realized that the most important reason why Merton''s three bills could be implemented smoothly was the reputation of Mohism and Mohism.


    More ministers looked at Merton with more dignified eyes. They had never heard of the knowledge that Merton said, but they were always by their side.


    The problem of money shortage in the Tang Dynasty has always existed, but no one paid attention to it. Mohist Zi seized the opportunity and issued silver tickets. It can be said that he was at the forefront of the times once.


    Merton looked around and said, "the reason why credit money can be implemented naturally has great advantages. Paper money is simple to make, easy to keep, carry and transport, and can avoid the loss of gold and silver in circulation."


    People nodded, and the prevalence of bill business in Mojia village was an opportunity to see that it was inconvenient for the world to carry money.


    However, the minister in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs disagreed and said, "isn''t Mr. Mo just defending himself for collecting money, saying only the advantages, not the disadvantages? If the world follows the example of Mojia village to set up banks and indiscriminately issue silver tickets, once there is trouble, the consequences can''t be borne by you alone."


    Merton nodded and said, "what do you say? If you directly order to prohibit the issuance of paper money, it''s just giving up food for choking. The money shortage in Datang will never be solved."


    Leng hum, the Minister of civil affairs, said, "it''s easy to solve the problem. The Bank of Mojia village only needs to hand over the cash in exchange for issuing silver tickets to the state treasury. Even if one day, the silver ticket of Mojia village will become a piece of waste paper, and the people can exchange it with the imperial court. In this way, the people will not have any loss."


    Many ministers immediately calmed down. If the Mo family agreed to this condition, I''m afraid there would be no chance to turn over again.


    After a long time of serious consideration, Merton nodded slowly: "That''s a way, but the bank needs to be ready to exchange gold and silver for cash. The biggest reason why credit currency can be implemented is that these silver notes can be exchanged for cash or buy things at any time. If the bank in Mojia village can''t exchange silver notes at any time, let alone the workers in Mojia village, even the villagers won''t agree, the bank won''t It''s bound to go bankrupt in three days. "


    The Minister of Civil Affairs immediately turned red. What he planned was immediately revealed by the Mohist son. He was ashamed to see the eyes of the emperor and officials examining him.


    However, Merton''s words changed: "however, although the bank cannot hand over all the cash to the court, it can hand over 30% of the cash to the court for safekeeping."


    "Thirty percent is silver!" all the officials were surprised that Merton would take the initiative to hand it in.


    Merton nodded: "the 30% cash silver will be used as the deposit for the silver ticket. In this way, even if the Mojia village goes bankrupt in the future, the silver ticket in the hands of the people can be compensated by the imperial court."


    Yu Zhining raised his eyebrows and said, "three costs? What about 70 percent? Do the people have to bear 70 percent of the loss?"


    Merton suddenly turned to Yu Zhining and said: "At any time, only Mojia village may have the most silver tickets. It can be said that the risk of Mojia village is the greatest. I can promise that if Mojia village really goes bankrupt, the silver tickets of Mojia village will not be exchanged, and the rest of the money can be exchanged for the people. In this way, the loss of the people can be reduced by at least 50%. Coupled with the inherent assets of Mojia village, I believe Certainly it can minimize the losses of the people. Of course, Mojia village will not let this day appear. "


    "Fifty percent!" many courtiers fell into hesitation one after another.


    "Do you know why it is necessary to hand in 30% cash? First, Mojia village needs to leave 70% cash to deal with the exchange. Second, Mojia village must have 30% margin for opening a check account. People believe in the credit of Mojia village and the credit of the imperial court. This is the essence of credit currency." Merton said with both voice and emotion.


    "Credit!" all officials were immediately silent. Datang stresses credit and believes in promise. The credit currency represented by silver will certainly bring challenges to Datang''s credit system. However, once it is used well, the benefits will be incalculable.


    "And you know how much this 30% cash silver is?" Merton said with a flash of flesh pain in his eyes.


    "300000 yuan!"

 Chapter 836

    "300000 yuan!"


    Suddenly, the Minister of Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar. No one thought that the 30% cash silver mentioned by mojiazi was such an appalling amount.


    What is the concept of 300000 Guan? In those years, the imperial court only spent 400000 Guan to build the brick road from Chang''an to Luoyang, which directly consumed the imperial court''s finance or issued bonds. Now such a huge wealth has been lightly taken out by the Mohist school.


    Many officials were so happy that they handed over 300000 yuan to the court, which suddenly made the court a lot richer. Why not let all officials move.


    More people are awe inspiring. If 30% of the cash is 300000 Liang, isn''t it that the silver note to be issued by Mohist Zi is as high as one million yuan. Suddenly, everyone was shocked by the ambition of Mohist Zi.


    In an instant, the focus of the crowd immediately focused on Merton.


    "In this way, the amount of silver tickets that Mojia village wants to issue is as high as one million." Li Shimin said emphatically that the scale of one hundred million is not a small amount.


    Merton nodded: "yes, if the Bank of Mojia village wants to develop, it doesn''t make sense if it doesn''t reach the scale of one million Guan. Only the circulation of one million Guan money can give full play to the role of the bank, and this is the amount that Mojia village can guarantee to be cashed."


    The ministers were silent. Naturally, they knew that the 300000 Guan that Mojia village was willing to hand in was the wealth that Mojia village had accumulated rapidly in recent years. According to the ability and development momentum of Mojia village, it was not impossible to earn millions of Guan money in the future.


    "I see!" Fang Xuanling suddenly had a flash in her eyes.


    As we all know, it is only a matter of time before the scale of Mojia village will reach one million yuan in the future, and Mojia village will officially use this to issue silver tickets for one million yuan. With the financial support of one million yuan, Mojia village will surely develop by leaps and bounds, and the time to reach one million yuan will be greatly shortened, which is a win-win situation.


    "The Mohist school is really extraordinary!"


    Other dignitaries also thought of the reasons. They secretly admired Mohist''s means and sudden tricks, but they were irrefutably convinced. I''m afraid this is the wonderful use of credit currency.


    "I think this is the best of both worlds!" Dai Zhou, a minister of the Ministry of the people who has been a mud Bodhisattva, said suddenly.


    The Minister of the Ministry of the people was in a hurry. He didn''t expect Dai Zhou to speak to help the Mexican family at this time. Although Dai Zhou was in poor health and the power of the Ministry of civil affairs gradually declined, Dai Zhou was, after all, the Minister of civil affairs. He was the most recognized financial expert in the Tang Dynasty and the leader of the Ministry of civil affairs.


    Since Dai Zhou agreed with the Mojia Zi''s silver ticket plan, as a servant of the Ministry of civil affairs, it was not easy for him to refute it. Otherwise, a lower official would dare to provoke the officer and would inevitably wear small shoes in the future.


    In desperation, the Minister of the Ministry of the people had to nod. After all, as long as he could occupy 30% of the current silver in Mojia village, he also made a great contribution. At that time, he said, "in that case, I don''t know when Lord Mo will be able to send the 300000 yuan of current silver to the fan treasury of the Ministry of the people."


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "Sir, you seem to be mistaken. Mo said to hand over 300000 yuan to the court as a deposit, not to the Ministry of people."


    The people were stunned. The Minister of the Ministry of the people said in amazement, "Lord Mo, if you don''t give it to the Ministry of the people''s Treasury, where do you want to give it?"


    Merton smiled cunningly and said, "300000 Guan from Mojia village should be handed over to the Imperial Palace Library!"


    "Imperial Palace Library!"


    Everyone was stunned and involuntarily turned their attention to Li Shimin. The finance of Datang is generally divided into two parts. One part is the Treasury controlled by the Ministry of civil affairs, which gathers the wealth of the world, and the other part is the internal Treasury set up by the imperial palace. Every year, the Treasury allocates funds to specialize in Royal expenses. Coupled with the treasures provided by various places, it can be said to be extremely rich.


    The Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs smiled angrily and said, "Lord Mo, I don''t think you can trust the Ministry of civil affairs. The wealth handled by the Ministry of civil affairs is more than ten million yuan every year. Will you care about your 300000 yuan?"


    Cheng Yaojin chuckled: "everyone in the world doesn''t know that the Ministry of the people is very poor. Although there are thousands of running water every year, they all go in with the left hand and out with the right hand. It''s not certain whether there are 300000 pieces of cash in the Treasury now."


    The Minister of the Ministry of the people blushed. Naturally, he knew the foundation of the Ministry of the people. I''m afraid he couldn''t get 300000 yuan of cash at once.


    "Yes!"


    Li Shimin waved to stop the discussion and said with a hammer.


    At this time, all officials saw that the matter had been determined, so they had to stop the dispute and think about the gains and losses of this court dispute.


    This time, it seems that the mojiazi handed in 300000 Guan, but after all, the inner library is owned by the imperial palace. Coupled with the relationship with Princess Changle, there is no need to worry about the safety of money at all.


    The imperial court also perfectly solved the hidden dangers brought by the new thing of silver ticket. Li Shimin saw the sincerity of Mohist school. With this 300000 penetration and the industry of Mohist village, the repayment ability of Mohist village has been greatly increased, especially the endless ink skills of Mohist village.


    Among them, only Yu Zhining and the Minister of civil affairs were villains. They didn''t beat the fox and provoked a coquettish.


    Yu Zhining could not help but bow his head in flattery. Although he did not achieve the ultimate goal, it was a great victory to reduce the 300000 yuan of cash in Mojia village.


    However, in his heart, there are still some hidden worries. Mojia village has made great efforts to issue silver tickets, but he knows a little about the economy.


    Other officials are also floating in their minds. Some are shocked by the wealth of Mojia village, but more secretly watch Mojia Zi''s jokes. The 300000 yuan of cash is taken out at once and replaced with millions of yuan of paper money in name. It is well known that the weight of white silver is heavier than piles of paper money. Silver is always white, and the silver stamps in Mojia village are beautifully printed. If they can''t be exchanged, they are also a pile of waste paper.


    Only many people of insight are thoughtful and can''t help thinking about the idea of mojiazi bank. If the bank idea of mojiacun is successful, it will be an earth shaking change for Datang.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Everyone couldn''t help taking a deep breath. No matter what the officials thought, they all had one thing in common. They were conquered by the courage of Mohist Zi. 300000 Guan said to take it out. This is not what ordinary people can do. I''m afraid Mohist Zi is the only one who can do this in the world.


    All the officials withdrew from the court with their own worries. Merton also wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but he saw Li Shimin''s warning eyes. He knew that he was "a guest" by Li Shimin again!


    "Merton, you are so bold that you dare to touch the coinage." Li Shimin suddenly shouted after all the officials retreated.


    For a long time, the coinage right has been the forbidden property of the imperial court and the source of the wealth of the imperial court of all dynasties. Mojia village issued silver notes, which can be said to be a certain form of currency, which has been suspected of interfering with the coinage right, and Merton also recognized that paper money is the third generation of currency in the future.


    Merton was immediately aggrieved and said, "Your Majesty wronged Weichen. The silver notes issued by Weichen are not coins, but to solve the problem of people carrying too much money. What they earn is hard money. There is no imperial court to make money."


    This is also the reason why Merton denied that Shen Hongcai issued too many silver tickets, because it was easy to violate the taboo of the imperial court. Originally, the silver ticket issued by Mojia village was only 300000 yuan of silver, which was the first one in Mojia village. The amount of 1 million yuan was temporarily added by Merton according to the situation of chaotang at that time, which is the largest amount that Mojia village can ensure the safety of silver ticket.


    Li Shimin didn''t believe Merton''s nonsense at all, but warned coldly: "the mint right of one million yuan is neither big nor small. Do you know why I allow you to issue silver notes!"


    Merton quickly followed up the topic and boasted: "is it your Majesty''s pity for the world to carry too much money and too much risk?"


    Li Shimin sneered: "the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. What''s the problem of over weighing money? Even if it''s ten times heavier, the world is still flocking to it. No matter how big the risk is, it''s hard to resist the world''s pursuit of money, which is not the main reason."


    Merton nodded silently and said, "please make it clear to your majesty."


    "Copper shortage!" Li Shimin said in his eyes.


    Merton was surprised and said, "the copper shortage in the Tang Dynasty has been so serious?"


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "although the mechanical promotion of Mohism has greatly increased the speed of copper mining, in recent years, the price of copper has still risen year after year. In addition to the fact that the world likes to taste money underground, you Mohism also contributed."


    "Your Majesty is wronged! Mojia village has never hoarded copper." Merton shouted wrongly.


    Li Shimin said with hatred: "you think you can stand in front of me well if you hoard strange things, but the copper consumed by your Mojia village every year is not a small amount every year. Especially after the rise of your Mojia village, the copper price has risen particularly seriously."


    Merton suddenly realized that at this time, there is no stainless steel technology, and steel is easy to rust. On some easy to rust or important parts, Mojia village uses copper that is not easy to rust instead, and the copper consumed every year is a huge amount.


    Merton was elated when he heard the speech and said, "Mojia village knew that it delayed the retreat of the imperial court. Only then did it use silver tickets instead of copper money to solve the problem of copper shortage in the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin nodded unexpectedly and said, "the paper money you said is the third generation of money. I also deeply agree with it. However, it is extremely difficult to implement it. I still need long-term observation, but your idea of dividing the silver note into one or two, one money and one point is extremely ingenious."


    Li Shimin became more and more excited. The idea of a monetary system of one or two silver coins, one or two silver coins and one silver NOTE directly divided one or two silver coins into three levels, so that under such a simple division, only ten copper coins were enough. For Datang, which has suffered from copper shortage for a long time, it was like a sweet rain for a long time.


    Merton suddenly understood the reason why Li Shimin liked the silver ticket. The silver ticket had just been implemented, and its effect was unknown. However, Merton''s calculation of the decimal place of silver showed Li Shimin the way to alleviate the copper shortage.


    With Li Shimin''s keen insight, Datang may not need silver notes, but he absolutely needs this decimal currency system. Of course, he is not in a hurry, but is ready to personally experiment with this decimal currency system in Mojia village. This is the real reason why he allows the Bank of Mojia village to issue Silver notes.


    Merton knew that Li Shimin took the Mojia village as an experimental place, and the experiment was not the paper money of silver note, but the decimal currency system.


    "Boy, I''m sure I won''t let your majesty down." Merton couldn''t help showing a trace of confidence.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "300000 yuan!"


    There is no airtight wall in the world, especially this kind of thing doesn''t need to be kept secret at all. Soon, the news that the Mojia village bank handed 300000 Guan to the imperial court as a silver note deposit soon spread in Chang''an city.


    "The Mohists are really rich!" the people who heard of it could not help but smack their tongue. The world knows that Mohist village is the first village in the world, but they did not expect that so much wealth has been gathered. 300000 yuan of money can be said to be the richest man in Chang''an City.


    "You don''t know. The money of Mojia village is shared by all the villagers, but it is not owned by Mojia Zi alone." most people in Chang''an know the system of Mojia village and talk to them one after another.


    "It is said that the children of Mojia village have thousands of families and more than 5000 people. In this way, each person has about 60 Guan money, and each family has a full 300 Guan property." they smacked their tongue.


    I don''t know when the people of Chang''an city learned the Mohist family. They like to measure everything with numbers. Arithmetic is very popular.


    "Mojia village is worthy of being the first village in the world!" everyone marveled. The people of Chang''an city can be said to be the richest in the world. Rao is so. If you don''t count the real estate of Chang''an people in Chang''an City, the money of Chang''an people''s families may not be as good as Mojia village.


    It is incredible that a village can be equal to the income of the people in the capital.


    In the eyes of ordinary people, the world only pays attention to the family property of Mojia village, but in the business world, it has caused an uproar.


    With the guarantee of 300000 Guan from the imperial court, the reputation of the Bank of Mojia village has doubled in an instant. Originally, people were willing to use the bank because they liked the reputation of mojiazi and Mojia village. However, now with the deposit of 300000 Guan handed over to the imperial court, the reputation of Mojia village is no longer in doubt.


    In particular, mojiazi promised in the imperial court that Mojia village''s own silver bills would not be cashed. In addition, Mojia village''s assets and deposits, as well as the convenience of silver bills and cheques, the reputation of the bank soared for a while.


    "The value of 300000 Guanhua of Mohist school!"


    Many people of insight can hardly suppress their shock. People with insight can see that once the 300000 Guan is handed over to the Treasury in the Imperial Palace, it is impossible to take out the 300000 Guan unless the Bank of Mojia village collapses. In theory, the 300000 Guan royal family can be used arbitrarily, and the price paid is the Royal reputation and promise to repay the people in the future.


    Naturally, no one in the Tang Dynasty doubts the reputation of the royal family and its ability to repay in the future, and the credit of the Bank of Mojia village naturally rises. This time, Mojia village and the royal family can be said to be a win-win situation.


    At the Bank of Mojia village, silver cars were already ready to go. Shen Hongcai couldn''t help looking at the silver car worth 300000 yuan in front of him.


    When he was teaching mathematics at the Imperial College, he was still haggling over a little salary. However, soon after he started the bank, the thousands, tens of thousands, or even 300000 of money was just a series of numbers in his eyes.


    "Merton, it''s ready!" Shen Hongcai said solemnly to Merton after careful inventory and confirmation.


    "Let''s go!" Merton suddenly drank, stepped out of the gate of the Bank of Mojia village and went straight to the rosefinch gate.


    Although the Mohist village bank and the rosefinch door gather together only a hundred steps, however, in front of the business travellers who came to work in the bank, a hundred Eyeliner had already been everywhere, not to enter the Imperial City, but also a hundred officials to witness.


    A 300000 transaction was completed in full view of the public.

 Chapter 837

    "The Mohist family is really brave, and even wants to keep the bank at the cost of 300000 Guan!" the big shopkeeper smacked his tongue in Yuanxiang bank. The thirty vast wealth of Mohist village is above the court. It is not possible to make a false promise publicly. It has already seen the silver cars in Mohist village have entered the palace.


    Even if banks and banks are competitors, he has to admit that mojiazi is really great. I''m afraid this is the unprecedented transaction amount in the history of China.


    "Do you think it''s really so simple for the Mohist family to spend 300000 yuan?" a young voice suddenly sounded behind the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank.


    "Please make it clear to the second owner!" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank bowed to the second owner in the shadow behind him.


    "Although Mojia Zi spent 300000 yuan to keep the bank, there is another important purpose, that is, to set a threshold for the bank. Whoever wants to get involved in banking business in the future, I''m afraid he needs to pay 30% cash as a deposit, which has deterred the vast majority of people. Otherwise, with the reputation of Mojia village and the face of Princess Changle, even if Mojia Zi doesn''t spend A share of money, the bank still stands. "The second owner''s face was gloomy.


    "So, the 300000 Guan was not forced by the officials of the court, but the Mohist school had planned so long ago." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank was surprised.


    The second owner Shen focused on the first way: "yes, the Mexican family has been on guard against this. Some people follow the example of the Mojia village bank to make a fortune. Once this threshold is set, I''m afraid it will deter the world."


    When he came down, he thought of imitating silver tickets. In addition to making a fortune on fake silver tickets, another most important reason was that he was excited about the silver ticket business in Mojia village. If he could take advantage of the east wind of Mojia village bank to make Ziqian''s silver tickets and cut a wave of leeks, it would be faster than robbery.


    However, all this came to naught under the precaution of mojiazi. After all, 30% cash is not a joke. If you make a small fuss, I''m afraid no one will pay attention to you at all. If you want to issue silver tickets, I''m afraid the starting price is not 300000 Guan, but also at least 100000 Guan.


    The Ziqian family has always been extremely defensive against the imperial court cutting leeks. If the imperial court asked the Ziqian family to hand over 30% of the cash to the imperial court, wouldn''t it let the imperial court slaughter it? This alone has cut off the way for the Ziqian family to set foot in the bank.


    "The Mo family is guarding against the Zi Qian family?" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank exclaimed.


    The second owner of Ziqian family sneered: "you think who can run a bank in the world except Ziqian family."


    "The Mohist family is really hateful. The well water of the money family and the Mohist family don''t offend the river, but they didn''t expect each other to be wary of us." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said angrily.


    Leng hum, the second owner of the Zi Qian family, said, "when it comes to the way of money, my Zi Qian family is the master here. However, the Mohist family has just set foot in the way of money. He dares to provoke my Zi Qian family. It seems that he doesn''t know how many kilograms he has if he doesn''t give him some color."


    "The second owner means......" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank bowed.


    The second owner of the Ziqian family said coldly, "since the Mohist family doesn''t want the Ziqian family to intervene in the silver ticket business, no one wants to make it. How''s the silver ticket I asked you to copy?"


    "The second owner didn''t know where to find these experts. It''s only a few days, and he has made the silver tickets somewhat similar." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said with admiration on his face.


    The second owner of the son Qian family said proudly, "money can help God. It''s just a small test of my son Qian family. If it''s not the silver ticket of the Mojia village, but the printing of the core children of the Mojia family, the son Qian family will be able to catch it. As long as the money is in place, when the world can''t be done. Do you think the sudden court meeting against the Bank of the Mojia village in the court is because the censors and waiters are worried about the people?"


    "Could it be that the young master pushed all this again?" the big shopkeeper said with a shocked face.


    "Not bad!" the second boss of the Zi Qian family nodded, "it''s just hateful that he was put up by the Mohist family, but if we can prevent the silver ticket, we can certainly make the Mohist family go."


    The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank sighed: "the second owner is clever. Although these people have superb means, the time is still short. Only one silver note with the least anti-counterfeiting means is five points similar. It is impossible to hide from the Bank of Mojia village."


    Mojia village has issued a total of one or two silver tickets, one or two silver tickets and one point silver tickets. Among the three kinds of silver tickets, the anti-counterfeiting methods of one or two silver tickets can be said to be the highest level, while the anti-counterfeiting means of one point silver tickets are much less. Not only is there no most powerful relief in Mojia village, but even the pressed gold wire has been changed into silver wire. Of course, other anti-counterfeiting means are available.


    Leng hum, the second owner of Ziqian''s family, said, "I naturally know that I can''t hide it from the bank, but as long as I can hide it from those village fools, but 50% of my acquaintances can''t do it. It must be more than 80%. This time, I will certainly ruin the silver ticket business in Mojia village."


    The move of the second owner of Ziqian family is really cruel. Once the silver ticket in Mojia village is essentially only credit currency, once the fake silver ticket is flooded, the credit of the silver ticket will surely collapse. At that time, the silver ticket will certainly become a pile of waste paper.


    "I''ll urge you to teach the Mohist village a lesson and see who is proficient in money!" said the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank with a grimace on his face.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Is it worth 300000?"


    300000 yuan of money was moved into the Imperial Palace Treasury. Looking at the empty Treasury, Xu Jie, the foreign affairs shopkeeper of Mojia village, hesitated.


    For anyone, 300000 Guan is an astronomical figure, but this 300000 Guan is in exchange for the bank''s silver note issuance right. According to Xu Jie''s experience in business all his life, he can''t understand this business.


    "It''s worth it, of course. I''m afraid the court won''t accept the money?" Merton laughed, completely unable to see that he had just lost 300000 Guan.


    "Young master, what do you say?" Xu Jie frowned. With his many years of business experience, once he lost his cash flow, it would be a disaster. Mojia village suddenly lost 300000 yuan of cash. Even if there were millions of silver notes in hand, he always felt uneasy.


    "Money can help God, and money is also the original sin. You also experienced the coveting and framing of the Taiyuan Wang family in those years. You have a deeper understanding of this." Merton said in a low voice.


    Xu Jie couldn''t help but look pale and shook his head and said, "what I met at that time was the king''s family in Taiyuan. Now the Mojia village is at its peak, how can some aristocratic families easily shake it."


    Merton couldn''t help laughing at himself: "what is the power of the Mojia village, that is, it can resist the king''s family in Taiyuan and block the aristocratic family in the world. You know, wolves can also drive away tigers, let alone there is a more powerful existence above the aristocratic family


    Xu Jie said in his heart, "what the boss said is............................."


    Xu Jie didn''t say it clearly, but pointed to the sky.


    Merton nodded solemnly.


    "It''s too much to worry about with the princess." Xu Jie frowned. With the princess Changle, how can the royal family and the imperial court attack the Mojia village.


    Merton said again, "it''s not 300 thousand passes, but if it''s 3 million passes, or even more?"


    Xu Jie immediately breathed. If the wealth accumulated in Mojia village was too rich to rival the country, I''m afraid even the princess''s face would be hard to use at that time.


    "Therefore, banks and bank notes are the best choice. No matter how large the future development of Mojia village is, Mojia village has lost its current silver. What any attempt to Mojia village gets is just an empty shell and a pile of useless waste paper, which reduces the covet of wolves, and Mojia village will ensure its safety." Merton said in a deep voice.


    Xu Jie was suddenly shocked by Merton''s idea.


    "But if......" Xu Jie didn''t make a sound and pointed to the top of his finger.


    Merton confidently said: "The royal family is also the beneficiary of the Mojia village. As long as the Mojia village does not fall, the royal family can use the 30% deposit at will. Therefore, the royal family will certainly spare no effort to maintain the Mojia village for the sake of 300000 yuan. The evil moves in the officialdom will no longer be brought to the Mojia village. The Mojia has endless ink skills, and it will not care about the competition among the people. In this way, the Mojia has silver tickets It can be used, develop with the wind and water, and let money escort the Mohist school. This is the real way of money. "


    "The host is wise!" Xu Jie sighed.

 Chapter 838

    Facts have proved that mojiazi is still that mojiazi! Since 300000 yuan of cash bank was sent to the Imperial City Treasury, Mojia village bank immediately became popular in Chang''an city.


    Among them, the first outbreak was the bill business. The world did not doubt the safety of the bill, but contacted the bill for the first time and didn''t want to lose their money. However, once the news of the 300000 guarantee deposit of Mojia village bank spread, the world immediately dispelled this doubt.


    After all, compared with 300000 Guan, I''m afraid it makes people laugh when they haggle over their little money. In an instant, the bill business has become the best choice for business travel. Even if the one-month preferential period passes soon, the enthusiasm of business travel to use the bill has not decreased.


    From thrift to extravagance, from extravagance to thrift, it''s just worth a hundred. With a little copper money, business travelers can no longer bear the fear of carrying gold and silver and the fatigue of long journey. It''s quite worth it,


    In Mojia village, after a month''s trial, coupled with the silver ticket guaranteed by the Royal reputation, it was finally accepted by everyone.


    "Pay!"


    With the call of the foreman, it was time for Mojia village to pay wages once a month.


    "Li Tiezhu! Five cents and three cents." shouted the foreman.


    A young man came forward with a simple and honest face, took five thousand silver tickets, one silver ticket and three copper coins, and left happily.


    "Next............................"


    As the workers left with their wages, this time all the workers had no complaints and accepted the silver ticket of Mojia village.


    Until the foreman handed out all the workers'' wages, he looked at Shen Hongcai with a smile and said, "master Shen, how can you do it yourself?"


    Shen Hongcai served as the chief manager of Mojia village bank. However, everyone knew that he was Merton''s teacher and respected him as master Shen.


    Shen Hongcai put down his pen, shook his head slightly and said, "I''m not idle and bored. The silver ticket has just been implemented. Naturally, I should always pay attention to whether it is accepted by the villagers."


    The foreman smiled loudly: "Mr. Shen is worried. We are all Mohist children. Can we support the silver ticket of Mohist village?"


    Although the foreman said it was easy, his salary last month had long been squandered, for fear that these silver tickets would become a pile of waste paper. Now it hurts to think about it?


    Shen Hongcai couldn''t refuse to smile. The villagers of Mojia village will naturally trust the Bank of Mojia village, but these workers are not necessarily, especially foreign merchants. His focus is the business district, which is the focus of his investigation today.


    Shen Hongcai got up and left, and went straight to the business district with his entourage.


    For merchants in the business district, last month was a month of fear and excitement. Because many workers and even villagers were afraid that the silver ticket in their hands would become a piece of waste paper, most of them chose to spend money desperately and exchange their silver ticket for equivalent goods, so that many merchants made a lot of money, and the turnover was close to the end of the year.


    However, this time it was time for Mojia village to pay wages. Almost all merchants were waiting for a new round of good business.


    However, this time it disappointed many merchants. Many workers were still stingy even with silver tickets in their hands.


    "Brother Mohist, do you want a new dress? It''s the latest fashion in Chang''an city."


    "The new delicious food in our shop is guaranteed to make you cry."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Each business tries its best to solicit, but the business is very different from that of last month.


    "Forget it! I spent almost all my salary last month. I have to save a little this month!" a worker in Mojia village said helplessly. You know, silver tickets can be spent like silver. He wouldn''t be so extravagant last month. This month, he can only live frugally.


    There are not many workers with the same idea. Looking at a wide range of goods, they can only look at it and sigh, shake their heads and leave.


    When Shen Hongcai appeared in front of a restaurant, he was immediately warmly received by the waiter.


    "Please come in, sir! Our shop is a cashier." the waiter took the initiative to say hello.


    Shen Hongcai wondered, "why don''t you accept the white silver?"


    Shen Hongcai said, raising his hand and putting a piece of silver on the table.


    The waiter hurriedly said, "yes, of course. Please let me weigh the silver for you."


    In the daily life of Datang, in addition to the whole silver ingot, some silver coins need to be weighed in order to estimate the value.


    "My guest, your broken silver weighs three dollars and two cents. Do you think so?" after the waiter worked hard, he estimated the value.


    "That''s OK!" Shen Hongcai said.


    The waiter sighed while serving the food: "My guest, it''s reasonable. The shop is not deceived by children and old people. If you encounter reckless customers, you have to say less, it will be troublesome. Some customers have bad silver quality. If you don''t want to discount, I''d say that the Mohist school is smart and divides the silver into one cent for one money. It doesn''t need to be so troublesome at all, and there won''t be so many disputes."


    "Oh! So silver tickets are still very popular. I heard that many people are not willing to accept silver tickets. They are worried that silver tickets will become a piece of waste paper!" Shen Hongcai deliberately tempted.


    The waiter said proudly, "my guest, you just arrived at the Mojia village. Everyone was not familiar with the silver ticket last month. Besides, the great Mojia son is making great progress every day. How can you care about our silver coins? Not to mention that the Mojia son has bet 300000 yuan in the Emperor''s treasury. Today''s silver ticket is guaranteed by the royal family. There is no need to worry at all.


    Shen Hongcai couldn''t help smiling: "well, find me some silver tickets later!"


    "All right! In Mojia village, there''s really no silver ticket for silver to work. Now everyone in Mojia village uses silver tickets. It''s very convenient to collect money and change money. It''s much better than the copper plate that is scared and easy to fall. However, if you leave Mojia village, go to the Bank of Mojia village and exchange it for cash. It''s hard to use the silver ticket in Mojia village." The waiter enthusiastically explained to Shen Hongcai about popularizing the knowledge of silver tickets, but he didn''t know that the man in front of him was the big shopkeeper of Mojia village bank.


    "What should I do? Can''t I use the silver note in my hand?" Shen Hongcai said with surprise.


    "I can''t say that. I''m afraid only the shops in Mojia village will accept it when you leave Mojia village. Of course, you can go to the local Mojia village bank and change it. Unlike in Mojia village, you can buy anything." the waiter said.


    "That''s just right. I''m going back to Chang''an City and it''s not too late to exchange it again!" Shen Hongcai ate the food in front of him in twos and threes, which is no different from a hurried business trip.


    "Well, you go. Here''s your change!" the waiter immediately handed over three silver tickets.


    Shen Hong reached out and took the silver ticket for one and two cents from the waiter, showing a smile of satisfaction. After his on-the-spot investigation, the silver ticket has completely gained a foothold in Mojia village. Even he didn''t expect it to be so easy.


    Shen Hongcai was still so. Other ordinary people almost lost their eyes. No one thought that silver tickets could be so popular.


    Mojia village all uses this novel credit currency, which has formed a unique landscape of Mojia village, attracting more people to experience this novel currency, or they enjoy this credit atmosphere.


    "The Mohist school has a promise of thousands of gold. Indeed, it deserves its reputation."


    "All the people in the world believe in the Mohists, and the Mohists live up to the world."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone sighed.

 Chapter 839

    "The name of the Mohist family is really good, and the silver ticket has gained a firm foothold so quickly." the second owner of the Zi Qian family, who sees everything in his eyes, is simply jealous and crazy.


    Ziqian family has always regarded making money as the goal, and even in order to achieve the purpose of making money, they do everything, and don''t hesitate to stink their reputation.


    However, they never thought that one day, their disdained reputation and reputation could also become a tool to make money, and faster than robbing money.


    At the height of the sun, the trustworthy Mohist school is very different from the notorious Ziqian family. One is to put money into the bank openly, and the other can only put money in a dark gray corner. Although it also holds a lot of money, its status is very different.


    "All this should have been enjoyed by the Ziqian family." the second owner of the Ziqian family said angrily. If the Mohist school had not suddenly risen and stepped in, he believed that one day, after the Zi Qian family was washed white, the bank''s reputation would certainly belong to the Zi Qian family, but now it was robbed by the Mohist school.


    "Young master, since the Mojia village bank has been successful, it''s better for my son Qian''s family to make plans early,......" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank was quite excited.


    After all, the Bank of Mojia village is really too successful. Although 30% of the cash bank is handed in as the deposit, compared with the benefits it obtains, this risk is also worth it, not to mention that once it is successful, it can certainly make the Ziqian family white, which is also a big temptation.


    The second owner shook his head reluctantly and said, "I have tried to contact other Ziqian families. Taking advantage of the wind of Mojia village bank, I washed the Ziqian family white and jointly operated the bank to issue silver notes. With my Ziqian family''s current power, as long as I give up 30% of the principal, there is no possibility of success. Unfortunately, other Ziqian families didn''t even consider it and directly rejected it."


    It''s not that no Ziqian family wants to wash white. How can Ziqian family be willing to stay in the dark all the time. However, their opposition to the imperial court over the years has made them avoid snakes and scorpions, or they have lost their courage to go to the light.


    Even if they can wash white successfully, there are at most one or two. I''m afraid the others will be cut into leeks. Even if they wash white, they will have to take off three layers of skin if they don''t die.


    "Is my son Qian''s family really like this from generation to generation?" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said helplessly.


    "From generation to generation? No, of course not. My young master thinks the opportunity of my Ziqian family has come." the second owner of Ziqian family showed a mysterious smile.


    "How do you say that? Don''t you mean that the other money families don''t agree?" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank didn''t understand.


    The second owner of the Ziqian family said proudly, "if the Ziqian family is directly exposed to the world, it is naturally impossible. However, the Mohist family has created a perfect coat for the Ziqian family."


    "What the young master said is that Ziqian family wants to cooperate with the bank!" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank suddenly said that the Mohist family is known as opening to the outside world and often cooperates with hundreds of other families. If the Mohist village bank cooperates with Ziqian family, it will certainly be able to open the bank all over the Tang Dynasty. It will be a great benefit. It''s exciting to think about it.


    "Ziqian family and Mohist family cooperate? The second owner of Ziqian family couldn''t help laughing, as if he heard a big joke.


    "Not to mention whether the flourishing Mohist school is willing to cooperate with the notorious Ziqian family, how can the Ziqian family who regards money as life be willing to hand over their money to the Mohist family? It is not that my Ziqian family is stingy, but that any one hundred families can not give their own capital to other hundred families. You only need to look at the mode of cooperation between Mohist School and other hundred families The reason. "The second owner of Ziqian family said firmly in his eyes. For Ziqian family, money is the foundation of Ziqian family''s survival, and it is impossible to give his life to others.


    "What does the second owner mean?" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank didn''t understand.


    The second owner of the Ziqian family could not help showing a trace of coldness and said: "the world knows that the Ziqian family is good at getting rid of the golden cicada, but it doesn''t know that the Ziqian family can still be reborn by borrowing the shell. Right now, isn''t there a perfect Golden Cicada shell waiting for the Ziqian family?"


    "Is the golden cicada''s shell mentioned by the second owner the Mojia village bank?" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank was stunned. He didn''t expect that the second owner had such a shocking idea and fell in love with the Mojia village bank.


    "Not bad!" the second owner of the Qian family said firmly.


    "But the Bank of Mojia village is the most important treasure of Mojia Zi. Even if Mojia Zi wants to keep the Bank of Mojia village without sparing 300000 yuan, how can he give up easily." The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank was worried. He thought the second owner''s idea was unreliable. The Mexican family was rich and powerful, and was tied to the royal family. How could the Ziqian family have the opportunity to pocket the bank.


    The second owner of the son Qian family proudly said, "although the Mohist son is talented, he is extremely radical in his work. This time, the Mohist village handed in 300000 Guan at once. This is the most empty time in the Mohist village. What he relies on is the one million Guan paper money! Once the bank note in the Mohist village becomes a piece of waste paper, the Mohist village loses its cash flow and is not slaughtered."


    "Now silver tickets are popular and everyone praises them. Mojia village tries its best to maintain them. How can they become waste paper." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank shook his head.


    "Fake silver tickets, as long as we crack the secret technique of making silver tickets in Mojia village, we can make fake silver tickets run rampant in the city. At that time, the real and fake silver tickets will be regardless. Once we lose our reputation, they will certainly become a piece of waste paper, which is the biggest flaw of Mojia village." the second owner of Ziqian family told his real intention.


    "But even so, the Mojia village still has a huge fortune of 300000 Guan in the imperial palace. If Princess Changle is here, you may not come back!" the chief shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank frowned. There is 300000 Guan in the Royal internal Treasury in Mojia village. If Princess Changle comes forward, 300000 Guan won''t be wasted.


    Leng hum, the second owner of the Ziqian family, said, "what''s the face of the princess? It''s easy for 300000 Guan to enter the inner library. It''s not so simple to want to get out of the inner library. Not to mention whether the 300000 Guan royal family will misappropriate it. Even if it''s not misappropriated, I''m afraid the 300000 Guan will have to pay for the silver tickets held by ordinary hundred surnames. I''m afraid the Mo family won''t lose a penny."


    According to the experience of the second owner of Ziqian family, the most test of people''s hearts is money. Since ancient times, no matter how close the relationship is, money has the opposite purpose everywhere, not to mention the 300000 yuan huge wealth.


    "At that time, as long as Ziqian family comes forward and takes over the Bank of Mojia village and promises to pay the silver note in full, so that the Mojia family can keep the foundation of Mojia village and the emperor can keep 300000 Guan, while my Ziqian family can be reborn in a shell. Isn''t everyone happy?" the second owner claimed.


    "However, Mojia village has strong power. I''m afraid our family Qian alone can''t swallow Mojia village. Do you want to contact other Ziqian families, so there will be no chance for Mojia village to turn over again." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said excitedly.


    The big manager of the Bank of Mojia village is a famous doctor of the Imperial College. Although he is also engaged in money business, the other party is extremely bright and glorious, but his reputation is much better than that of the bank manager. Ziqian can annex the Bank of Mojia village, and his status will rise.


    "No! My Ziqian family has always been honored to pursue the greatest interests. Now it is very possible to contact other Ziqian families. However, Yuanxiang bank will share the interests with other Ziqian families at that time. If we defeat Mojia village alone, we can enjoy the greatest interests, and even become the head of Ziqian family." The second owner of Ziqian family proudly said.


    "The second owner, good news, we have cracked the silver ink technique of Mojia village." a servant of the Qian family said excitedly.


    "Seriously?" the second owner of Zi Qian''s family didn''t understand.


    "At least 70-80% similar." the servant excitedly handed over three newly imitated Mojia village silver tickets.


    The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank took a look, looked at the three brand-new Mojia village silver tickets, raised them and sighed with regret when he saw that there was no watermark. However, from the appearance, it was very similar, but it was absolutely impossible to hide it from Mojia village bank.


    "Enough! With this fake silver ticket, the reputation of Mojia village will be ruined." the second owner of Ziqian family said coldly.


    Silver tickets are not as good as the silver of the previous year. Almost everyone can distinguish between true and false. I''m afraid not many people know how to distinguish the silver tickets just launched. Once these fake silver tickets are vigorously introduced to the market, it will certainly collapse the reputation of Mojia village silver tickets.


    At that time, everything in Mojia village will make wedding clothes for Ziqian''s family.

 Chapter 840

    With the prevalence of brick roads and four-wheel carriages, the convenience of transportation and means of transportation has further stimulated the commerce of Chang''an city. Today, Chang''an City has attracted countless business travelers to come for gold by virtue of the advantages of the capital.


    All business travelers who come to Chang''an City, without exception, want to see Mojia village. First, they want to see the products of Mojia village, and then they want to see the famous Mojia village.


    Everyone who comes to Mojia village is shocked by the magic of Mojia village. The ink skills of Mojia village are well known all over the world, not to mention, but the silver ticket of Mojia village is even more amazing.


    A palm sized piece of paper can be exchanged for white silver, which is extremely convenient. In addition, Mojia village directly bet 300000 Guan money in the imperial palace for the silver ticket, which makes the reputation of the silver ticket far-reaching.


    "Shopkeeper, this is three Liang silver note!"


    In Chang''an City, a business traveler skillfully handed the three Liang silver ticket to the shopkeeper. After receiving it, the shopkeeper carefully looked at the silver ticket, which was safe in his pocket.


    Such transactions can be found everywhere in Chang''an city. Silver tickets are not only popular in Mojia village, but also gradually appear in the extremely open Chang''an city. The convenience of silver tickets and the reputation of the royal family have directly cleared the obstacles for silver tickets. Some bold merchants also collect silver tickets openly. Anyway, they can exchange them for pure silver by going to the Bank of Mojia village.


    However, what the shopkeeper didn''t know was that outside the store, an ordinary looking idle man shook his head slightly and turned to leave. When he saw a 50-year-old cloth seller, his eyes brightened.


    "Aunt, how much is your cloth?" the idle man asked.


    When the old lady saw the business coming, her eyes brightened and said, "young students, eight Wen a foot."


    "Give me three feet, but I don''t have copper money, only Mojia village silver ticket. Can you accept it?" the idle man flashed in his eyes.


    The old lady laughed and said, "young man, I''m old. I don''t know any silver notes, let alone silver notes. I don''t know even silver."


    When the idle man heard the speech, he immediately agitated and said, "madam, the silver ticket is made by the Mohist school. Each silver ticket can be exchanged for white silver, and there is a royal guarantee. You don''t have to worry at all."


    Xianhan immediately turned into a silver Ticket Promotion expert and spared no effort as a silver ticket propagandist.


    "This... But I only know copper money." the silver ticket of Mohist school is spreading in Chang''an City, and it has even made trouble in the court. This matter has been spread all over Chang''an city. Naturally, the old lady has heard of it. At present, she is not so determined to refuse it.


    As soon as the idle man heard of the play, he continued to encourage him and said, "madam, I really like your cloth, but I don''t have any cash on hand. If you agree to accept the three-point silver note, you don''t have to change the extra six Wen."


    The eldest mother was so excited that her profit from selling cloth was not much. If she charged six Wen more, it would not be a small amount.


    "Well, I''ll believe in Mohism once." the eldest mother thought for a long time, but finally didn''t withstand the temptation, handed the idle man three feet cloth, and took three one cent silver tickets from the idle man, but she didn''t have the consciousness to check the silver tickets.


    The idle man took the cloth in his hand and couldn''t help smiling proudly. He came to a corner and saw a beautiful carriage parked aside. He quickly came forward and bowed and said, "the second owner."


    "Hmm! How''s it going?" the voice of the second owner of Ziqian family came from the carriage.


    "Tell the second owner that many shopkeepers are very smart. They will check the silver tickets they receive. It''s easy to expose them. However, some fools and old women haven''t seen the market, which is the best target." the idle man bowed down.


    "Well done," the second owner praised, "go and do it immediately, gather people as much as possible, and spend as much as possible on these fake silver tickets. Once you alert mojiazi, I''m afraid it won''t be so easy."


    "Yes!" said the idle man immediately.


    As the idle man left, a member of the Qian family began to spread all over Chang''an City, and a net for silver tickets soon spread.


    "What, you don''t accept it. It''s the silver ticket of the Mohist school, and the emperor guarantees it." at the door of a snack shop, the old lady argued with the shopkeeper of the snack shop. The old lady made money and wanted to buy some snacks for her granddaughter, but she didn''t expect that the other party wouldn''t accept it.


    The shopkeeper of the snack shop frowned and said, "madam, it''s not that we don''t accept silver tickets, but that you have the wrong quality of silver tickets!"


    "What''s the meaning of wrong sex?" the eldest mother stayed there and said.


    "This is a real silver ticket. This is the silver ticket you received. You can compare it well." the shopkeeper of the snack shop took out a real silver ticket and put it in front of the old lady''s three fake silver tickets.


    "How could this happen?" the old lady couldn''t believe looking at the silver note in front of her. Even if the craftsman invited by Ziqian''s family was superb, it could be as similar as the silver note. However, as long as it was carefully compared, we could certainly find the difference.


    "As like as two peas, you are not the only one in the three silver tickets." the shopkeeper will put the number of the three silver tickets of the old lady in the same place. It is the same as the one in the dim sum shop. The first time the dim sum shop owner saw the fake Silver ticket, it was not certain at that time. When he saw the three same numbers on the fake silver note, he determined that the silver note in front of him was fake.


    "And your silver ticket has no watermark! And..." the shopkeeper of the snack shop picked up the real silver ticket and asked the old lady how to distinguish the true and false silver tickets in the popular science Ink magazine. The old lady gradually believed that her silver ticket was false and couldn''t help crying.


    Thirty Wen is not much in the eyes of ordinary people, but in a poor home, it is the cost of living for ten days, which is not a small loss.


    With the passage of time, fake silver tickets were exposed one by one. Most of the victims were elderly people, and many merchants did not test the silver tickets at all.


    Soon, the fake silver ticket spread all over Chang''an city. Everyone was afraid of the silver ticket, and the reputation of the silver ticket in Mojia village fell to a low point.


    "Fake silver tickets!" Merton took the fake silver tickets in his hand and his face was gloomy.


    After the outbreak of fake silver tickets, the Mojia village bank, which received the news for the first time, immediately reported it to Merton.


    "The silver note is just issued by the bank, and the other party can make a silver note that can confuse the fake with the real in a short time. It must not be done by ordinary people." Shen Hongcai said with a gloomy face.


    He saw with his own eyes how precise the process of making silver notes was, and the secret skills contained therein were even more extraordinary. However, he did not expect that 80% of them were imitated by the other party in a short time. Although this 80% was only 80% on the surface, he could not deceive the bank at all, most ordinary people who had never been in contact with them were deceived.


    "Who is it? Aiming at my Mohism?" Merton frowned. He led the rise of Mohism. Although he advocated the peaceful rise all the way, he inevitably offended many people. He thought about his opponents in recent years one by one, but he had no clue.


    "No matter who is targeting the Mohist school, the top priority now is to curb the proliferation of fake silver tickets." Shen Hongcai took a deep breath.


    Once fake silver notes are flooded, the people will suffer heavy losses. At that time, even if the Mohists are not responsible, they will not be able to explain to the imperial court, and their credit for silver notes will be greatly hit.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "the hardest hit areas of fake silver tickets this time are Chang''an City and Luoyang City. The secret people see through that Chang''an people don''t know fake silver tickets, which makes Chang''an people deceived. Immediately publicize the anti-counterfeiting method of silver tickets in Chang''an City and Luoyang City. Please refuse silver tickets if you can''t distinguish between real and fake silver tickets."


    Shen Hongcai nodded and said, "although the appearance of fake silver tickets this time is 80% similar, the watermark and micro carving secret skills of Mojia village have not been cracked. As long as you pay attention to observation, it is not difficult to distinguish. The biggest reason why so many people were cheated this time is that these people didn''t check the fake silver tickets for the first time, which was the trick."


    "Second, offer a big reward in ink magazines. If anyone can provide false silver ticket clues, he will be rewarded hundreds of times, and important clues will be rewarded thousands of times!" Merton snapped. This time, he was really angry, not because the other party moved the interests of Mojia village, but that fake silver ticket hurt many people who trust Mojia village, which is the foundation of Mojia.


    "There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. I believe the other party can''t be completely flawless." Shen Hongcai said coldly.


    "What about the ordinary people who have been cheated?" Fu Bo worried. He has experienced the poverty of Mojia village. Sometimes a penny is precious. What''s more, the silver tickets are at least one point. Many cheated people hold one or two silver tickets, which is too cruel to a family.


    "Since it''s my Mojia village that doesn''t think well, I''ll accompany it!" Merton said decisively.


    "Absolutely not!" Shen Hongcai hurriedly said, "if Mojia village bears the fake silver tickets in full, isn''t it the trick of the people in the dark? The other party will take out a lot of fake silver tickets, which will easily defraud huge money from the Bank of Mojia village.


    I''m afraid people in the dark are paying attention to every move of Mojia village. If Mojia village sends out the wind and compensates the fake silver ticket in full, the other party can easily cheat huge money from Mojia village with fake silver ticket.


    Merton immediately frowned. If the Mojia village does not compensate, the reputation of the silver note will plummet. If the compensation is made, it will be the plan of the person behind it.


    "There''s only one way to do this now. Then please ask the Chang''an County Government to make statistics on the losses of the people and summarize them on the record. If the case is solved in the future, follow the losses and make compensation." Fu Bo said in his heart.


    "This is indeed a method." Shen Hongcai nodded and agreed. In this way, it also gives the cheated people hope to recover their losses.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "that''s good, but if the cheated person under a silver note has a guarantee from the owner, the bank will compensate directly."


    "Young master, be merciful!" fuber was moved. In fact, most of the poor people were cheated by one cent of the silver note, and there was a guarantee, so the secret people could not do bad.


    Shen Hongcai carefully calculated that only one money would be paid, and the money under the silver note would not use too much money, so he agreed to the plan. In this matter, although Mojia village is also a victim, I''m afraid it doesn''t make sense that it can''t pay a penny.


    "Even so, the enemy knows and I don''t know. Since the other party can copy the silver ticket, it''s likely that they will continue to crack the silver ticket." Shen Hongcai was restless. The strength of the person who spread the fake silver ticket really stuck in his throat. He copied the fake Silver ticket to this extent so quickly.


    Merton frowned and asked, "where is the paper used to make the silver note this time?"


    "Young master Hui, the best Chu paper in Sichuan is used for the silver note." Fu Bo replied that Chu paper is the best paper in the Tang Dynasty, but there are few paper that can meet the needs of making silver notes.


    Merton shook his head and said, "although Chu paper is precious, there are not many in circulation on the market. Immediately revise the silver ticket, abandon Chu paper and use royal tribute mulberry paper. I will personally invite your majesty."


    Shen Hongcai couldn''t help but rejoice. The mulberry paper is a royal tribute and doesn''t circulate in the market at all. It will be more difficult for secret people to fake.


    "This mulberry paper is just a silver note transition. Mojia village must control its lifeline in its own hands and create a unique paper for silver notes." Merton solemnly said.


    "A unique paper!" fuber wondered.


    "Cotton paper!" Merton said word by word. Although he didn''t know the manufacturing technology of future paper money, he knew that the paper used in future paper money was cotton paper.


    Cotton has just appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and papermaking with cotton pulp is unheard of. If cotton paper is really made, it is the way to cut off fake silver note materials.


    "In addition, the highest anti-counterfeiting skills are used for both one money and one cent silver tickets. Everyone will be very cautious about one or two silver tickets. It really makes people relax their vigilance. It''s not enough for me to make one cent counterfeit silver tickets." Merton said proudly.

 Chapter 841

    "Real and fake silver tickets are very easy to distinguish. Just hold up the silver ticket and look at the blank space in the sky, you can see the clear peony watermark. This is the exclusive secret of Mohist village, and fake silver tickets can''t be imitated." in the downtown of Chang''an City, a Mohist child is publicizing the method of distinguishing real and fake silver tickets to the people of Chang''an city.


    The watermark of the silver note is not a human head like that of later generations. This technology can not be made in Mojia village, but it is inappropriate to use whoever''s head. Finally, the well-known peony pattern was adopted.


    "In addition, there is also the peony micro carving technology on the silver note, which is lifelike. If the peony on the silver note is very smooth, you can suspect that it is a fake silver note, which can be rejected directly, or go to the Mojia village bank for confirmation.


    "In addition, the numbers on all silver tickets can change color with different angles,..."


    Such Mohist children can be seen everywhere in Chang''an city. With the publicity of Mohist children, women and children know how to distinguish fake silver tickets this time.


    In a carriage beside the street, the second owner of Ziqian''s family looked at the scene in front of him and couldn''t help looking gloomy. Before, the Mohist school only published the method to distinguish the true from the false on the ink magazine, but the ordinary people knew very little. This time, the children of the Mohist school went directly into the street to publicize the anti-counterfeiting method of silver tickets to ordinary hundred surnames. It''s impossible for fake silver tickets to run rampant like this time Yes.


    "Second master, there is news that Mojia village has abandoned Chu paper in Sichuan and personally entered the palace to ask the emperor for tribute, mulberry paper and printed paper money." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank whispered.


    It has to be said that the Ziqian family is indeed powerful. Merton has just made an action, and the Ziqian family has already got the news.


    "Royal tribute mulberry paper?" said the second owner of Ziqian family with a sneer. "Does the Mohist family think it will embarrass my Ziqian family?"


    Although the difficulty of obtaining tribute mulberry paper is much higher than that of Chu paper, it seems to Ziqian family that it is just to pay more.


    "The master is wise! The Mohist school has been ruined with a little planning." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank complimented.


    The second owner of Ziqian family couldn''t help showing a proud look and said modestly, "but the Mohist son can''t be underestimated. He has come up with a way to deal with it in such a short time. I''m afraid it''s not as simple as this time if he wants to sell fake silver tickets in the future."


    The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank disdained to say: "this time, the credit of Mojia village silver ticket has fallen sharply, and how can those who hold fake silver tickets easily let Mojia village go? Even if there is no fake silver ticket, the Bank of Mojia village can''t recover in a short time."


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family couldn''t help laughing contemptuously. As long as the people holding fake silver tickets gathered to make trouble, they would certainly be able to make the Mohist family go around.


    At this time, two county yamen from Chang''an city came in a hurry and posted a notice on the noisy street, which immediately aroused the onlookers. Suddenly, there were bursts of uproar, and the voices of silver tickets and Mohism came from time to time.


    "Go and have a look. What''s going on?" the second owner of Zi Qian''s family frowned and motioned to the big shopkeeper.


    "Yes, the second owner!" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank nodded and immediately squeezed into the crowd. After a while, he walked back with a dignified face.


    "The second owner, it''s not good. The mojiazi asked the Chang''an County Government to register all the cheated people and collect a large number of information from the people about people who hold fake silver tickets. Anyone who reports fake silver tickets will be rewarded." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank frowned.


    The second owner of Ziqian family frowned and said, "tell them to go down and let the people of Ziqian family be careful during this period of time and don''t make any mistakes."


    "Yes!" the chief manager of Yuanxiang bank said solemnly.


    "The Mo family is so shameless that they even invite people from the government to come forward." the second owner of the Zi Qian family was angry. He thought it was just a contest between the Mo family and the Zi Qian family, but he didn''t expect that the Mo family had this crooked move. The mo family''s move can be said to have grasped the weakness of the Zi Qian family. The Zi Qian family has always been walking in the dark. How dare he appear in the sight of the government.


    It took three days for Chang''an County Government to make statistics of all the cheated people. When the final amount came out, everyone couldn''t help taking a breath.


    Among Mojia village, Chang''an and Luoyang, Chang''an city is the hardest hit area of the counterfeit silver ticket case. The number of people cheated alone is as high as 3000, with a total amount of more than 10000, followed by nearly 5000 in Luoyang. Mojia village is the least, with only 2000.


    After all, Mojia village is the base of Mojia. It is the most convenient to identify the silver tickets. Most of the cheated are one or two silver tickets. The merchant did not check them for a while. Only one merchant was the most unlucky. He received nearly a thousand silver tickets at once and sold all his goods. Of course, these goods were taken away at the first time, and there is no news up to now.


    Rao is so. The nearly 20000 fraud cases shocked the government and the public at once. This is the case involving the largest amount and the widest range of victims in the history of the Tang Dynasty.


    People talked and denounced the evilness of the people who made fake silver tickets. More people pointed the spear at the Bank of Mojia village, especially those who were deceived. If Mojia village had not issued silver tickets, where would it be today.


    "What about the government? Can the government still compensate the people for the white silver?" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank snorted coldly at the news.


    "People who can be fooled are greedy people, especially a few yamen servants can hold it down?" the second owner of Ziqian family naturally knows the root of the bad nature of greedy people and can''t help sneering.


    "When these people can''t hold down, we just need to stir up the flames a little, and we can certainly kill the Mojia village bank." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank couldn''t help but say happily.


    "Shopkeeper, this is the new issue of Ink magazine!" a servant came in a hurry and presented the new issue of Ink magazine.


    They were dealing with Mojia village. Naturally, they needed to understand the actions of Mojia village. They immediately picked up ink magazines and read them.


    However, when they looked at it for the first time, they couldn''t help but sink. They saw that the headlines on the front page of the ink magazine were denouncing the counterfeiting of silver notes. I''m afraid anyone who was pointed to the nose and scolded would be in a bad mood.


    Subsequently, on the rule of law section, the legalist Han Fuzi directly displayed the criminal evidence and punishment of counterfeiting silver tickets, and those who make and sell counterfeit silver tickets can even be sentenced to death.


    "Do you think my son Qian family is scared?" the second owner of the son Qian family said unhappily. The son Qian family did not hesitate to pay any price in order to pursue wealth. This little threat can''t scare them away at all.


    "The credit of silver notes has fallen sharply. This time, my son Qian''s family has a small victory," said the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank.


    However, when they continued to look down, they were stunned and looked at the ink magazine in their hands.


    "Mojia village should pay the fake silver note in full?"


    They couldn''t help looking at each other. You know, fake silver tickets are not a small number, but nearly 20000. This is not a small number for anyone.


    "It''s not all compensation immediately, but the cheated person of the fake silver note under the one money silver note. As long as the owner guarantees that he is a serious merchant, he can be compensated directly by the bank, and the rest will have to wait." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank frowned.


    It has to be said that mojiazi played this move very well. Although it cost a lot of money, you should know that the victims of one point of silver are the most. Mojiazi comforted 80% of the victims at once and gave hope to the remaining 20% of the victims. Their idea of encouraging these victims immediately went bankrupt.


    "The Mohist family is so bold!" the second owner of the Zi Qian family said with a stiff face.

 Chapter 842

    "I''ve been selling cloth on the streets of yonglefang for 20 years. It''s obvious to all the neighbors in the neighborhood. It''s hateful that those who killed thousands of knives cheated me for three cents..." the eldest woman selling cloth cried.


    The owner of Yongle square testified: "this aunt is a resident of Yongle square. I can guarantee her."


    Constable Cao nodded. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he crossed out the old lady selling cloth from the roster.


    "I can get the money now!" the old woman selling cloth looked forward to it.


    "Not yet. You must be able to pass the test of the bank and accurately distinguish the true and false silver notes."


    Constable Cao shook his head and pointed to the Bank of Mojia village. These cheated people are all victims of fake silver tickets. Now they are forced by Mojia village to learn to distinguish silver tickets. It''s really a peck.


    "Why?"


    The cloth seller said reluctantly that once bitten by a snake, she was afraid of straw rope for ten years. According to her plan, I''m afraid she won''t use silver again all her life.


    "You were cheated this time. The Mohist school has done its utmost to pay for it. There will be no such cheap thing next time. If you are cheated again, you will not pay for it. It''s also for your good to let you distinguish between true and false silver tickets." the nearby workshop leader shouted.


    In his opinion, these people were cheated without any loss. The Mohists are thankful that they can compensate. It is very necessary for them to learn to identify true and false silver notes.


    The old lady selling cloth was helpless. Now the situation is stronger than people. If she wanted to get compensation, she had to follow the rules of Mohism, and had to reluctantly walk to the bank under the guidance of Mohist children.


    "This is the sample money of thirty silver tickets, including six counterfeit coins. You just need to memorize the method to distinguish the fake silver tickets and find out the six fake silver tickets accurately." Shen Hongcai took a stack of silver tickets in the Bank of Mojia village, and a group of cheated people said loudly.


    "Why is it difficult?" many people sniffed. At first, they were deceived because of carelessness. This time, they came prepared and naturally wouldn''t think they would be deceived.


    However, they don''t know that the fake silver tickets that let them distinguish this time are not the fake silver tickets cheated before, but the fake silver tickets specially produced by the bank, which are more hidden than the previous fake silver tickets. I''m afraid they can''t see it if they don''t pay attention to observation.


    "Let''s start!" Shen Hongcai waved his hand.


    A group of Mohist children first popularized the anti-counterfeiting knowledge of silver tickets, and then put a stack of silver tickets in everyone''s hands.


    "This is a silver note worth as much as 11 Liang silver. If we...?" a cheated citizen whispered greedily. This money is much more than the money they were cheated.


    "This is the sample coin of the silver note, but the two words of the sample coin are clearly written on it. If you take it out and are found, you are not afraid of being beaten!" a literate sneered. Today''s Chang''an City hates people who use fake silver notes. If a person suddenly uses fake silver notes, it must cause public anger.


    Suddenly, many people were greedy in Annah''s heart, which put their mind on finding fake silver tickets.


    "I''ve found it!"


    Many people were full of confidence and soon took out what they thought were six fake silver tickets and handed them to the children of Mohism.


    "Sorry, this one is true!" a Mohist boy rejected it mercilessly, and mixed all these fake silver tickets together for everyone to distinguish again.


    "This is also true!"


    "All this is true!"


    Seeing one failure after another, many people found that it was not easy to take away their losses smoothly.


    It was not until a small vendor made five mistakes that he could tell the true and false silver notes.


    "Congratulations, it''s all right. You can get compensation." the Mohist children nodded with satisfaction.


    "Wow!"


    Many cheated people showed envious eyes one after another, and soon lowered their heads and carefully began to distinguish between true and false silver tickets. One after another, people all picked out counterfeit money and went to get compensation. The old woman who sold cloth made a mistake more than ten times, so she picked out all counterfeit money and couldn''t wait to make her own three cents of silver.


    "Aunt, here are your three coins!"


    A Mohist child handed three real one cent silver tickets to the old lady who sold cloth.


    "Or a silver ticket?" the cloth seller was stunned. She didn''t expect that the compensation of Mojia village was still a silver ticket.


    The Mohist children explained, "this is a real silver ticket. If you don''t believe it, you can identify it yourself. It''s more convenient to distribute the silver ticket. If you want cash, you can take these silver tickets to the counter and exchange them for cash."


    "Who still changes silver? Now I have learned to distinguish between true and false silver tickets. Who can deceive me? It''s convenient to carry the silver tickets?" said Lang, the first vendor to distinguish between true and false silver tickets.


    "That is, the bank has done its utmost to compensate us. I still believe in the credibility of bank notes." an old man said bluntly.


    The old lady looked at the silver ticket carefully. After confirming that it was correct, she looked at the long line in the Bank of Mojia village. She didn''t know how long it would take her turn to put the precious silver ticket close to her and turned to leave.


    There are not many people who have the same intention as the eldest mother. Although many people are worried because they are cheated by fake silver tickets, they have learned the method to distinguish fake silver tickets. Coupled with the reputation of Mojia village bank, they still continue to use silver tickets in the end.


    "This time, the price paid by the Mohist school is not small!"


    In the bank, Shen Hongcai was accompanying Merton to inspect the progress of compensation. Seeing that the claim settlement was proceeding in an orderly manner, he couldn''t help sighing.


    Merton solemnly said, "the reason why these people can be deceived is because they believe that the Mohist village is willing to accept silver votes and return them with a peach for a Lee. How can the Mohist School disappoint them?"


    These deceived people are the first group of people willing to accept silver tickets, or people close to Mohism. If Mohism disappoints this group of people, it will certainly damage Mohism''s reputation and hinder its development momentum. Therefore, this group of deceived people must be won over by Mohism.


    This is also the reason why Merton has to try his best to quell the impact of fake silver tickets at a huge cost. Paying a full compensation of less than one money is only the first step, so that these cheated people must learn to identify fake silver tickets is the second step.


    The third step is to compensate these cheated people with real silver tickets, and personally observe how many of these real silver tickets remain in the hands of these cheated people. Fortunately, the final result did not disappoint Merton. Half of the results have made him overjoyed, while the other half is like a frightened bird, but these people have learned to recognize the silver tickets, It''s much easier than ordinary people to accept silver tickets in the future.


    "This time, the fake silver ticket case can finally be calmed down for some time." Shen Hongcai breathed a sigh of relief. In such a major case, it can be said that he is under the greatest pressure.


    Merton nodded solemnly and said fiercely in his eyes, "the most important thing now is to find out who is behind the scenes, so that he can never suffer."


    "The person behind the scenes, but the other party is so mysterious. I''m afraid it''s looking for a needle in a haystack!" Shen Hongcai hesitated.


    This time, the other party launched a surprise attack on the silver ticket without warning, and the layout was meticulous. Afterwards, the clues were erased. It''s not easy to find it.


    Merton hummed coldly: "people leave their names, wild geese leave their voices, precious Chu paper, superb printing skills and unique ink are not what ordinary people can do. The fox will one day come out of its tail."

 Chapter 843

    "A strong man breaks his wrists! I underestimated the Mexican family!"


    In Yuanxiang bank, the second owner of Ziqian family took a deep breath and said something with a frozen face.


    He never thought that the MOH family would calm the anger of the deceived people so quickly, and he didn''t have a chance to incite him at all.


    The Mohist family is now publicly offering a large reward for fake silver tickets. The whole city is terrified. The Ziqian family does not dare to act rashly. Moreover, the Mohist children publicize the knowledge of distinguishing true and false silver tickets on the streets. In addition, the revision of the silver tickets in the Mohist village is imminent, and the fake silver tickets he tried hard to print have become a pile of waste paper.


    "But this time, I won''t lose any money." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank smiled. This time, the son Qian family used fake silver tickets to pit the Mohist family for nearly 20000 yuan. It can be said to make a lot of money, which is much faster than printing money.


    "If you can let the famous Mohist eat, the world will give up who I am." the second owner of the Zi Qian family was not ashamed, but proud. He was even complacent about his sneak attack.


    "However, the Mohist family is not the loser. I think it will be tracked down. We......" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said anxiously. Today''s Mo family can''t be underestimated. The folk forces in the court are not small. If they trace the Zi Qian family, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    "Don''t worry, I have made precise arrangements, which will surely make the Mohist school return in vain." the second owner of the Ziqian family said carelessly. The Ziqian family can inherit for thousands of years and has been suppressed by the imperial court, but it still lives well. Naturally, it has its own set of hidden means.


    The chief manager of Yuanxiang bank put down his doubts.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the Mo mansion, Merton and Shen Hongcai sat face to face and discussed the plight of the bank.


    "Merton, the bank has lost a lot this time, and after the bank admires the people under a silver note, I''m afraid the rest of the victims are going to be unbearable." Shen Hongcai said with worry.


    Merton nodded and said, "don''t worry, master. I''ve sent people to investigate the counterfeit silver ticket case. I believe there will be a reply soon."


    At this time, Mo Er came back to Mo''s house and reported: "tell me, young master, there is news from Sichuan. Chu paper has no clue!"


    The raw material of the fake silver note came from Chu paper. He was ordered to go to Sichuan, but he didn''t expect that the other party''s work was very hidden and wiped out all the clues.


    Merton nodded, which was not surprising. Although Chu paper was precious, there were not many sales channels, and it was not surprising that it could not be found out.


    "I''ve sent someone to investigate the famous ink making masters in the Tang Dynasty, but no one is suspicious." Xu Jie hurried to say, worried.


    There are not many famous ink masters in the Tang Dynasty, especially around Chang''an city. He made great efforts to investigate and found nothing.


    "I tell you, marquis, we have investigated the printing houses around Chang''an City, and there is no clue." Constable Cao of Chang''an County Yamen said with a tired face. Even if the bank has compensated 80% of the cheated, 20% of the cheated are constantly putting pressure on the Chang''an County Government.


    Merton immediately looked disappointed. He didn''t expect that the other party should be so cunning and do it without leakage.


    "However, it is reported that an old craftsman from the Confucian journal recently asked for leave to go back to his hometown and hasn''t come back yet." Constable Cao hesitated.


    "Confucian journal!" Merton couldn''t help himself.


    "I''m not wrong. Only Confucian journals have such skills to imitate such a fake silver note." Mo Er said angrily.


    "Mo Hou, do you doubt the Confucian journal?" Constable Cao hesitated. The Confucian journal is a Confucian journal. A small Constable dare not investigate Confucianism.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Confucianism cherishes feathers most. Naturally, it will not do such a thing. Just focus on the craftsman. Go and check his hometown to see if he really goes back."


    "Humble position, understand!" Constable Cao nodded.


    Although Merton knew that the old craftsman was very suspicious, he also knew that the other party was just a nobody. Even if he found it, he would return in vain.


    For a moment, the investigation of the fake silver ticket case was in trouble. Naturally, everyone knew that there was little hope and couldn''t help but frown.


    Suddenly, a constable hurried into the Mo mansion and bowed down and said, "I inform you, sir. There is a message from Zhuque street. The shopkeeper of the pan restaurant caught a man who used a fake silver note."


    Cao was surprised and said, "OK, please tell me the good news of your humble position."


    Immediately Constable Cao hurried away with his men, and Shen Hongcai couldn''t wait to say, "I''ll have a look, too."


    Merton waved and asked Mo Er to follow Shen Hongcai. It was just a true and false news, which was not worth him.


    The pan restaurant has been surrounded by a large number of people. These days, the fake silver ticket case has become the hottest topic in Chang''an city. The pan restaurant suddenly caught a person using fake silver tickets, which immediately aroused everyone''s public anger.


    "Chang''an County Yamen is in charge of affairs, and idle people get away." with Constable Cao yelling, the onlookers quickly opened a passage.


    "Lord Cao is coming!"


    When shopkeeper pan saw Constable Cao appear, he hurried forward.


    "Where are the people?" Cao Li couldn''t wait to say, not to mention the high reward offered by Mojia village, that is, he only solved the case, which is also a great achievement!


    "Here you are!" shopkeeper pan pointed aside and saw his nephew tugging with the rich man.


    Seeing the arrival of constable Cao, the rich man quickly shouted, "my Lord, I am wronged!"


    Shopkeeper pan sneered: "wronged? The quality of the silver note you used is wrong. It''s not a real silver note at all."


    "Fake silver ticket!" the people couldn''t help but brush their eyes on the rich man.


    "Impossible, my silver ticket must be real!" the rich man argued with a red face.


    "True or false! Let me have a look!" Constable Cao waved his hand. Recently, in order to track down the case of counterfeit silver tickets, he has made up a lot of knowledge to explain the true and false silver tickets.


    "Sir, this is the fake silver ticket used by this man." shopkeeper pan handed one or two fake silver tickets to Constable Cao.


    Constable Cao stretched out his hand to take it. He couldn''t help but look at it. His eyes suddenly moved. The quality of this silver note was really wrong.


    "This person has other silver tickets! This is the only one." Constable Cao asked cautiously. If the previous cheated person did not report in time, it would cause a wrong case.


    "Lord Hui, there are still some silver tickets with wrong color in this man''s arms." the nephew of the Cao family took out several silver tickets from the rich man''s arms, and they were all wrong.


    Cao Chuan''s face sank and said coldly, "how can you explain this?"


    The rich man was not confident enough: "in fact, it''s all my mother-in-law''s fault. She didn''t look at it when washing clothes and directly soaked the silver ticket in water. This is what it looks like. If you don''t believe it, the watermark of the silver ticket is still there."


    "Watermark!" Constable Cao was stunned. The watermark is the most important sign of silver ticket anti-counterfeiting. He raised the silver ticket and saw the watermark as expected. However, due to soaking in water, the watermark is naturally more blurred than normal paper money.


    "This..." Cao was in a dilemma when he caught the first meal. If the silver note was true, it was wrong, if it was false, and there was a watermark, even he was embarrassed.


    "I''d better give it to you!" Shen Hongcai came forward and tied the silver note in Constable Cao''s hand.


    "This is master Shen, the chief manager of the Bank of Mojia village. He used to be a doctor of mathematics in the Imperial College. If you are a real silver note, you will not be wronged. If you are a fake silver note, you''d better be honest, or the crime will be even worse." Constable Cao threatened the rich man.


    Upon hearing this, the rich man immediately said excitedly, "Dr. Shen, you have to make the decision! These silver tickets have indeed been washed. They can''t be fake silver tickets."


    Shen Hongcai carefully looked at the silver note, nodded and said, "this is really a real silver note. I think it''s not good because it''s washed."


    "Unexpectedly!" shopkeeper pan was greatly disappointed. If he really caught the fake silver ticket, he would certainly get a rich reward from Mojia village. Now it''s empty joy.


    "Thank you, Dr. Shen, for vindicating me." the rich man broke away from the pull of the pan nephew and solemnly saluted Shen Hongcai.


    "Aren''t silver tickets made of paper? They are washed without breaking!" many people said.


    "What if it''s not broken? The quality is wrong, and it can''t be spent. If the silver can''t be washed away," someone sneered. Compared with a thin note, he still believes in white silver.


    The rich man immediately frowned. The money was not a small sum. If he couldn''t spend it, wouldn''t it become waste paper?


    Shen Hongcai waved his hand and said, "it doesn''t matter. If your money is washed, you can go to the nearby Mojia village bank to exchange for a new silver ticket of the same amount for free."


    "Can it still be like this?" the people couldn''t help but exclaim.


    The rich man smiled again. He was worried that his money could not be used, so he risked spending it. If he had known that he could go to the Mojia village bank to change it, how could he have made such a big misunderstanding.


    Shen Hongcai Lang said, "not only that, even if your silver note is broken into pieces, you can go to the Mojia village bank to exchange it for a brand-new silver note. Even if you lose one piece, you can exchange it in full as long as there are three-quarters. If there is only half left, you can only exchange it for half of the denomination. If it is less than half, you can''t exchange it."


    "Can it be so?" many people were very surprised when they heard this little knowledge for the first time.


    "The bank is really honest." shopkeeper pan exclaimed. With such humanized regulations of Mojia Village Bank alone, he believed that the bank would be able to stand firm.


    "This time, my pan restaurant wronged you. In order to apologize to you, your meal expenses are free this time. How about compensation?" shopkeeper pan solemnly said to the rich man.


    The rich man was also unjustified. He nodded his head to promise, and a misunderstanding was solved.


    Seeing the public''s response, Shen Hongcai couldn''t help showing a trace of pride. Although it was an empty trip this time, it was a worthwhile trip to publicize the knowledge of silver tickets.

 Chapter 844

    "Back to young master, the old craftsman of Confucian journal didn''t go home. Not only that, even his family disappeared, and there was no news at all." after days of exploration, Xu Jie returned without success.


    Merton sighed. It was not surprising that the other party could not leave such a big flaw.


    "What should I do? Fake bank notes are like a lump in the throat for our bank. If we don''t find out the source, there will be endless trouble." Shen Hongcai, who was on the side, said anxiously. This kind of secret opponent is the most difficult. If we don''t find out, the bank will never have peace.


    Merton nodded solemnly, and the fake silver ticket must be checked. However, after the continuous publicity of the Mohist school to distinguish the authenticity of the silver ticket, the fake silver ticket cannot easily cause damage to the layout of the bank. However, the Mohist school cannot allow the people behind the fake silver ticket to go unpunished.


    "Has there ever been a fake silver note in the last month?" Merton turned his head and asked.


    Shen Hongcai shook his head and said, "the other party is really terrible. Since the outbreak of the fake silver ticket case, he immediately disappeared, and no fake silver ticket flows out."


    "It won''t be the other party''s fear. After all, the young master offers a large reward all over the city. In addition, the whole city can distinguish between true and false silver tickets. Even if there are fake silver tickets, they can''t spend them." Xu Jie analyzed.


    "Maybe the other party has earned enough. This time there are 20000 fake silver tickets, which is money that ordinary people can''t earn in their whole life." Shen Hongcai said.


    "I''m afraid! I''ve earned enough!" Merton snorted coldly.


    "Money is just a string of numbers for the development of mathematics. For Mohism, money is just the capital to study ink technology and the tool to revive Mohism. For businessmen, it is valuable to have 30% profit, and more than 50% profit will be concentrated."


    The crowd could not help nodding, and even Xu Jie could not help sighing. Although he was called a business legend of Chang''an, he did take risks many times in order to make money, otherwise he would not overturn in the end.


    "However, for some heretics, if there is a 100% profit, it is enough to take risks. If there is a 200% profit, he dares to trample all the laws of the world. If there is a 300% profit, he dares to commit any crime. Even at the risk of being copied by the whole door, the profit of printing fake silver notes is more than three times the profit. Rest assured that the other party is dormant If you can''t hibernate for a lifetime, you will soon show your horse''s feet, "Morton said proudly.


    "The whip penetrates into the heart of the world, but so is the heart of the world." Shen Hongcai sighed. When he first came into contact with the bank, he had been keenly aware of the corrosion of money on the heart of the people. Fortunately, he was old and experienced, and he thought about arithmetic wholeheartedly, so he could stick to his original heart.


    "What does the owner mean?" Xu Jie asked. The role of the bank is too good for Mojia village. The bill is paid with silver, the settlement is in the bank, and the escort silver is also in the bank. Now he is only responsible for selling the goods of Mojia village, which is much easier than before, and almost eliminates the possibility of the shopkeeper misappropriating money.


    Now he is eager for the bank to return to normal and doesn''t want to be in the trouble of returning to accounting.


    Merton said with a confident smile: "good news came from Mojia village yesterday. The new version of the silver ticket has been printed. It is immediately publicized in the ink magazine and on the streets of Chang''an city. Mojia village began to implement the second version of the new silver ticket. I want to turn the fake Silver ticket in the hands of the secret people into a pile of waste paper."


    "Wonderful! In this way, if the other party is reluctant to make such a huge profit, he will take risks recently..." Xu Jie said excitedly.


    Shen Hongcai worried and said, "but what if the other party can''t stand it?"


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "then we should be careful. Such a cunning enemy will be the great enemy of my Mohist school."


    If the other party waits for the renewal of the second edition of silver notes and allows the counterfeit money in his hand to become a pile of waste paper, he is a real opponent. I''m afraid Mojia village will always guard against this hidden enemy.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Ink magazine is coming. Mojia village is about to issue the second generation of silver tickets. The color changes from black to green!"


    "The second generation silver ticket adopts the most powerful anti-counterfeiting technology in Mojia village. The paper is royal tribute paper and mulberry paper, which is absolutely not imitated."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the publication of ink magazines and the street publicity of banks, the second-generation silver tickets of Mojia village in Luoyang, Chang''an and the second-generation silver tickets of Mojia village are well known. Among the Panjia restaurant, the second-generation silver tickets have instantly become a hot topic.


    "Tribute paper! Mohists dare to use tribute?" a diner smacked his tongue.


    "What''s the matter? Merton is now a relative of the royal family. Besides, the tribute paper is only used for silver, not for his own use, and will not disgrace the Royal identity."


    The crowd could not help nodding. Now Merton is also the Royal son-in-law, and the use of tribute paper is not illegal. In addition, tribute paper is the Royal use of the royal family, which adds three points to the credit of the silver note.


    "What about the original silver ticket?" many diners asked urgently. After a short time of use, the convenience of the silver ticket has been recognized by everyone. Now people are quite recognized by the silver ticket.


    "Ink magazine said that the first generation of silver tickets can be circulated for another month, and the Mojia village bank will gradually replace it with the second generation of silver tickets. After a month, there will be no more silver tickets in the market. If you want to spend money, you must go to the Mojia Village bank to exchange it for a new silver ticket. Of course, it is one-to-one free exchange." Pan shopkeeper Lang said.


    "One month!" they nodded. The scope of use of silver tickets is in three places with banks in Mojia village, Luoyang, Chang''an. One month is enough.


    "What if I go out of town and can''t come back in a short time? What about the silver note in my hand?" a business traveler said deliberately,


    Shopkeeper pan held up the ink magazine in his hand and said with a smile, "you don''t have to worry at all. As long as the silver ticket in your hand is true, whether it''s a month or three or five years later, the Mojia village bank can change it. Of course, if you wait for ten or eight years, there''s probably no way. You can only collect it yourself."


    People can''t help laughing. If they haven''t changed for ten or eight years, Mojia village naturally has no obligation to wait for you.


    "To tell you the truth, I just changed a brand-new silver ticket." the merchant raised a stack of brand-new Green Silver tickets in his hand and gently shook them. The silver tickets suddenly made a pleasant sound.


    "This is the new silver ticket!" the people couldn''t help looking at the new silver ticket curiously.


    "Is there any fake? Love both, not attack Shang Xian..... All the Mohist ideas are printed on it, not to mention that the quality of the paper is very good, the feel is full, and it is very tenacious. It is sharp enough to hurt people. The tribute paper really deserves its name." shopkeeper pan couldn''t put it down. I have to say, not to mention the value of the silver note, even the quality and workmanship are unforgettable, Especially when he just received the silver ticket, he accidentally cut his hand. This discovery made him not angry but happy.


    "How could it be?"


    The crowd exclaimed.


    With the issuance of the exquisite second-generation silver tickets, they were quickly accepted by the people. The Mohists were ready to replace the first generation silver tickets in an orderly manner.

 Chapter 845

    In a secret manor outside Chang''an City, an old craftsman and two young people are busy. If someone from the Confucian journal comes here again, he will be surprised that the leader is the missing old craftsman.


    "No, even ordinary people can''t hide it at this level." the old craftsman looked at the newly printed fake silver ticket and shook his head reluctantly. Now outside Chang''an City, the whole people know the anti-counterfeiting secret skills of the silver ticket. It''s impossible for them to print the previous silver ticket.


    "Father, but we don''t know the secret recipe of Mohism at all. It''s the limit to do so." a young craftsman said helplessly.


    "Elder brother is right! Father!" the second son of the old craftsman interrupted.


    If an outsider were here, he would be surprised. The fake silver ticket that stirred the situation in Chang''an city was made by a family.


    "Besides, didn''t the second owner say? The Mohists have begun to prepare to abandon Chu paper and use mulberry paper to print silver tickets. What''s the use of the fake silver tickets made of Chu paper?" the eldest son refused.


    "What''s the use?" the old craftsman sneered. "The so-called all-round, the Mohist family uses mulberry paper to print silver tickets, and its anti-counterfeiting secret skills are also changeable. As long as we can understand the Mohist anti-counterfeiting secret, no matter what paper we use, we can catch it.


    "Well said!"


    With a cry of applause, the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank accompanied the second owner of Ziqian family into the secret room.


    "Second young master!" the old craftsman family quickly bowed down.


    "Old Liu is really an old hero with great ambition. I admire him!" the second owner of the Zi Qian family said with a compliment on his face. Looking at his expression, he obviously knew old Liu craftsman.


    "The second owner is flattered!" old craftsman Liu said respectfully.


    "Mr. Liu has worked hard these days, and my boss will bring you a lot of good things today." the second boss of Ziqian family waved his hand and the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank immediately presented a box.


    Behind him, his two sons immediately came forward to take over.


    Old craftsman Liu came forward and opened it. The first box was full of silver ingots. He couldn''t help showing a trace of greed and hesitated: "this is..."


    Lang, the second owner of Ziqian family, said: "this is the reward of Liu Lao. This time, Ziqian family has made a lot of profits. Liu Lao should take the lead. You deserve it."


    Old craftsman Liu immediately smiled, handed the silver in his hand to his son and said, "you''re welcome."


    It was for money that he agreed to copy silver notes. Naturally, he would not push away the money he got.


    "However, there is another bad news. I hope Mr. Liu won''t be angry. Now the imperial court has found Mr. Liu''s hometown, which is wanted all over the country. I''m afraid Mr. Liu''s hometown can''t go back." the second owner of the Ziqian family said with a sad face.


    "This..." old craftsman Liu''s family couldn''t help sinking. Although they thought of such a day, they didn''t expect to come so fast.


    "Then we''re not dead!" the eldest son of the Liu family trembled. When they didn''t participate in the imitation of fake silver tickets, they were just ordinary craftsmen. Where did they think they would be wanted one day.


    The big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank on one side took advantage of the situation and said: "of course not. The Mohist school is at the end of its power now. As long as you defeat the Mohist school, with the help of the young master, it''s not a problem to cancel the wanted. You can rearrange your identity for you no matter how bad it is. But you have to avoid the limelight for a while."


    "Defeat the Mohist school!" old craftsman Liu''s family suddenly brightened their eyes. It seems that this is the last way out.


    Seeing this, the second owner of Ziqian family gave a slight sign, and the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank continued: "this is the new version of paper money in Mojia village. As long as you can copy the new silver note, you can not only destroy Mojia village, but also get ten times your income."


    Old craftsman Liu''s family suddenly breathed. Now they have become a grasshopper in the same line with Ziqian''s family. Up to now, there is only one way to go to the dark.


    At present, old craftsman Liu took over the new silver ticket of Mojia village. As soon as he started, he frowned. This paper ticket alone is better than the first generation silver ticket. I don''t know how much. The more he looks, the more dignified he is.


    "If you want to copy the new silver ticket, royal tribute mulberry paper is essential." old craftsman Liu hesitated. This condition alone is a violation of the king''s law, but their family has been wanted and don''t care about it for a long time.


    As soon as the second owner of the Ziqian family waved his hand, the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank immediately held a stack of thick mulberry paper and solemnly said, "this is a thousand pieces of mulberry paper, which will be sent in a steady stream."


    It has to be said that Ziqian''s family is really powerful. They can get royal tribute mulberry paper so soon. Although there are only 1000 pieces, it is not useful in other places, but it is enough to make palm sized silver tickets.


    "It''s still too few," said old craftsman Liu regretfully.


    The second owner of the Ziqian family waved his hand and said, "then only make silver tickets that give up one point and make one or two silver tickets."


    Sure enough, as Merton said, the counterfeiter may lose money if he makes a silver note?


    Old craftsman Liu nodded. The anti-counterfeiting technology used in the second generation of one point silver tickets is no less than that of other silver tickets. Indeed, some of them are not worth forging.


    "The ink color has changed and needs to be redeployed." old craftsman Liu looked at the new green silver ticket.


    The second owner of Ziqian family waved his hand and said, "don''t worry, the new ink will be delivered soon."


    Old craftsman Liu nodded. Naturally, he knew that Ziqian''s family was cunning and he was only responsible for one of them.


    "In addition to paper, the technology of making paper in the Mohist school uses mechanical embossing. It can''t be achieved by my hand alone. It takes a long time to develop it. It can''t be as easy as the first generation of silver notes." the eldest son of old craftsman Liu frowned.


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family had expected this. The way of machinery is the strength of Mohism. It is not surprising that Mohist Zi applied it to silver notes.


    "In addition to the Mohists and the public losers, there are many skilled craftsmen among the people, and the Ziqian family will naturally find candidates." the second owner of the Ziqian family said confidently, but he also knew that this time, he could not make the second generation of fake silver tickets in a short time.


    "What about the fake silver tickets we made before?" the second son of old craftsman Liu said painfully. In their opinion, it was white money!


    "What to do? It''s naturally a piece of waste paper?" the second owner of Ziqian family said with a strange smile, "this is a silver note, just a piece of paper, but Mozi turned it into white silver by virtue of Mozi''s credit. How amazing."


    The second owner of the Ziqian family looked crazy and threw stacks of fake silver notes into the air. Many of them floated into the stove and immediately the stove was burning.


    After a long time, the second owner of Ziqian''s family returned to calm and said coldly, "burn all these fake silver tickets for me! Don''t keep any."


    "Yes!" the people immediately took orders. This is their criminal evidence. If they can burn it, they will naturally be more positive one by one.


    "Take up and destroy the silver tickets of the children of Ziqian family outside, and don''t keep any of them." the second owner of Ziqian family ordered to the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank.


    "Yes, the second owner!" the chief manager of Yuanxiang bank said solemnly.


    "The second owner is bad, and a brother of Ziqian''s family has been arrested." suddenly, a son of Ziqian''s family came to report with a flustered face.


    "What''s the matter? I told everyone not to act rashly. How could I be caught?" the second owner of the Zi Qian family said angrily.


    Some of the children of the Ziqian family said unnaturally, "the Mohist school has issued the second generation of silver tickets. The silver tickets in the hands of the brothers have become a pile of waste paper. Some brothers are unwilling, so they take advantage of the last opportunity to do it again, just once, but who knows that they have been seen through and caught."


    "Just once! Don''t you know that this is the plot of Mohist school, specially to lure you? A group of fools!" the second owner of the Zi Qian family trembled angrily.


    Naturally, he could see the conspiracy of Mozi, but he didn''t count his children''s greedy desire, and finally let Mozi seize the handle.


    "Second owner, what should I do? Once the children of Ziqian family are arrested, Yuanxiang bank will be exposed!" the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank said in horror.


    This time, all the fake silver tickets came out of Yuanxiang bank. Once the children of Ziqian family were exposed, they would certainly give them to him.


    "In that case, don''t come out here again. You are specially responsible for the imitation of the second generation of fake silver tickets." the second owner of the Zi Qian family waved his hand.


    "I..." the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank was about to stop talking. He couldn''t help drooping his head. When he was in charge of the sub money business in Chang''an City, he had unlimited scenery, and in the twinkling of an eye, he became an underground rat who didn''t dare to show up,


    "People are greedy, Mo family, you won a small game this time, but you got a piece of ruins." the second owner of Zi Qian family looked at the fire and said ferociously.


    The Mohist family took advantage of the greed of the Ziqian family to expose the children of the Ziqian family, but he didn''t know that the second owner of the Ziqian family had already arranged, and the Yuanxiang bank left in Chang''an city had long been an empty shell.


    "Out of the water!"


    "Yuanxiang bank, gone!"


    With a cry of surprise, people on both sides spontaneously came to put out the fire. It all depended on the city wide early warning system designed by Mojia village. In an instant, the alarm bell sounded loudly, and the water dragon car of the fire government yamen came at the fastest speed.


    However, the fire was not only very sudden, but also very rapid, which was difficult to put out.


    Morton and Constable Cao looked at Yuanxiang bank in the fire with a gloomy face. They didn''t expect the other party to be so fast. They had just found the clue, and the other party had set fire to destroy the evidence.


    "Chief Secretary for fire, when can the fire be put out? Yuanxiang bank is seriously suspected of being involved in the fake silver ticket case?" Constable Cao asked anxiously in front of the Chief Secretary for fire officials.


    The fire government official on one side said helplessly: "Lord Cao, the fire is very rapid. The Yuanxiang bank can''t hold it. At present, the most important thing is to control the fire. We can''t let the fire spread and cause a bigger fire, otherwise the street can''t hold it."


    This street is a prosperous area, and there are wooden houses. Once the fire spreads, I''m afraid there is no way to stop it, and the losses are very huge.


    "Have there ever been casualties in Yuanxiang bank!" Merton asked softly.


    Chief Secretary Huo hesitated and said, "back to the Marquis, the people didn''t see the people running out of the bank, but Yuanxiang bank didn''t have many servants, and it''s daytime now. Presumably no one is trapped in it."


    Merton nodded. If it was an accidental fire, how could Yuanxiang bank not have a survivor? If it was intentional arson, I''m afraid there would be no one at all now.


    "Yuanxiang bank!"


    Merton looked at the raging fire and swallowed up the signboard of Yuanxiang bank. Suddenly, there was a bang, and a copper coin was directly exploded and fell at Merton''s feet.


    "Be careful, Mo Hou!" Constable Cao hurried forward to protect Merton.


    "It''s all right!" Merton waved his hand, bent down and picked up the hot Kaiyuan Tongbao from under his feet, and couldn''t help feeling a flash in his heart.


    "Ziqian family!"


    Merton immediately connected all things together and couldn''t help blurting out.


    With such powerful energy and greed for money, I''m afraid only Ziqian family has such motivation. However, although Merton guessed Ziqian family, he just thought it was Ziqian family''s instinct to pursue money, so he forged silver notes. All know that Ziqian family had a plan to swallow banks and wash them white.


    "Marquis! Did you already know who was behind the scenes?" Constable Cao said suspiciously, not knowing the mysterious son Qian family.


    Merton didn''t explain, but shook his head and said, "since we found Yuanxiang bank and the other party set fire to destroy the certificate, it''s no doubt that it has the details of Yuanxiang bank."


    Constable Cao thought for a moment and said, "Lord Hui, although Yuanxiang bank is large, it is not famous in Chang''an city. Usually it only puts printed money and receives some pawn goods. I don''t pay much attention to it."


    Merton nodded, which coincided with the mysterious sign of the money family.


    "After the fire is put out, I will make a careful investigation. Anyone who has contacts with Yuanxiang bank will not be let go." Constable Cao promised.


    Merton looked at the burning light and nodded, although he also knew that with the existing investigation methods, the probability of finding out was very small.


    However, in a place out of Merton''s sight, the second owner of Ziqian family also looked at the fire of Yuanxiang bank in the distance. His face looked particularly ferocious under the reflection of the fire.


    "Mo family, you can''t imagine it! Yuanxiang bank is just a golden cicada shell of Zi Qian family. It''s a big deal to start again after burning, but the competition between you and me has just begun!" the second owner of Zi Qian family said coldly, holding a copper coin in his hand. He threw it with a buzzing sound, and the copper coin in his hand flew into the sky.


    A trace of burning light shone on the face of the second owner of Ziqian family through the reversed copper money, and a cold voice came,


    "Money has everything, people have Yin and Yang. You Mohists are on the right path. Mohists take money as the way, create ink technology, hire workers and become rich. What they see through is the people''s desire and pursuit for money.


    My son Qian family hides in the dark places of the world, looks for the defects of human nature, distributes printed money, damages the people and makes huge profits. What we can see through is the greed and darkness of the people''s hearts for money. The game of a penny is the true meaning of the son Qian family. In this world, the only way of money is you, Mozi, who is my real opponent. "


    With a "Ding" sound, the copper money fell heavily on the ground. A piece of money was round outside and square inside, but it told the human nature of the world.


    "What I left you is not just a fire. The contest between the money family and the Mohist family has just begun." the second owner of the money family watched the fire of Yuanxiang bank extinguish in the distance, waved his hand, slowly hid in the shadow and disappeared into Chang''an city.

 Chapter 846

    "I tell you, marquis, according to the humble investigation, the big manager of Yuanxiang bank is named Cao Guangqi. However, during our investigation, we found that Cao Guangqi''s other information except his name is false. Even the owner behind him is extremely mysterious. I only heard that he is a young man, and there is no other useful information."


    In the Mo mansion, Constable Cao came together with the information to explore. The more he explored, the more frightened he became. Who could have thought that there was such a mysterious bank in Chang''an city. In case of an accident, he couldn''t finish walking around.


    "Sure enough!" Merton was not surprised by the result. If Ziqian family didn''t have two sons, how could it exist for such a long time. Yuanxiang bank is just a stronghold of Ziqian family.


    "Not only that, but even the shops of Yuanxiang bank are rented. I didn''t find the remains of the clerks in Yuanxiang bank. The property counted out was just a few copper coins, and there was no useful clue at all." Constable Cao smiled bitterly.


    In people''s impression, banks are the richest places. They must be full of gold and silver treasures. However, Yuanxiang bank is like an empty shell.


    Merton was also dumb. He didn''t expect Ziqian''s family to make such a decision.


    "However, Yuanxiang bank doesn''t have no money at all. It is said that it has also put a batch of printed money outside, but Yuanxiang bank has become a ruin with no list and loan receipt. It''s estimated that no one will admit it." Constable Cao smiled bitterly. The bank that borrowed printed money suddenly committed an offence and ran away. It''s impossible to urge the account again, just like the world lost pie, I''m afraid no one will admit such a good thing.


    "Then issue a notice. Once the people who borrow the money printed by Yuanxiang bank encounter a reminder, they can come to the Mohist school to report, and the Mohist school will be rewarded." Merton sneered.


    "Mohou Yingming!" Constable Cao nodded.


    "In that case, this case is over. Just want craftsman Liu and the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank! Don''t track down any more." Merton waved.


    "Thank you! Hou Ye understands!" Constable Cao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the case could be closed. Although he had never heard of the Ziqian family, seeing that the other party was so powerful, he naturally knew that it was involved in the battle of hundreds of families. This was not something he could be involved in as a small constable.


    "But if the case is closed, what about the remaining fake silver ticket cheaters?" Constable Cao hesitated. These days, he has been entangled by the cheaters and has no temper. According to Merton''s previous promise, once the people behind the scenes are found out, he will compensate the cheaters, although it is said that the mojiazi has compensated some people, But the remaining few people are the biggest cheated, which is a million dollars.


    According to the plan of the Mohist School and Chang''an County Government, the Mohist school will compensate most of the minor cheated first. When the people behind the scenes are found, they will recover the cheated money and then compensate other cheated people. However, this time, it is found that Yuanxiang bank is just an empty shell. Where will there be money to compensate these cheated people.


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "the rest of the money can be compensated by the Mohists."


    "Mo Hou is kind!" Cao Chutou said solemnly to Mo Dun when he was arrested. These people were cheated. Some of them were all his possessions. If they became a piece of waste paper, it would be so tragic.


    However, in this way, almost all the cheaters were compensated by Mojia village. It was nearly 20000 yuan of money, which was a lot of money for everyone, but Merton didn''t hesitate to take it out.


    "The fake silver ticket case is closed!"


    "Yuanxiang bank is the mastermind behind the counterfeit silver ticket case!"


    "Cao Guangqi is wanted, and the imperial court rewards a hundred liang of silver."


    With the publication of Ink magazine and the wanted notice of the imperial court, the case of fake silver tickets that had a bad impact on Chang''an city finally came to an end. In the eyes of ordinary people, Yuanxiang bank was the culprit behind it. Coupled with the rumors of Yuanxiang bank fire and the wanted of the chief manager of Yuanxiang bank, the case of fake silver tickets was completely solved.


    However, some well-informed people know that Mojia village has suffered a lot this time. Instead of finding the culprit, it will lose 20000 yuan to compensate the victims of fake silver notes alone.


    "Shopkeeper Hu, this is your silver note. You must carefully identify the silver note in the future. If you can''t identify it, you can directly reject it or turn to the Mojia village bank." outside the Mojia village bank, Shen Hongcai admonished a middle-aged man.


    "Thank you, shopkeeper Shen, thank you, mohou." shopkeeper Hu said with tears in his eyes. He was the unlucky guy who was cheated of thousands of taels of silver. He was originally a rich family. He was destitute overnight. If Mohist village hadn''t promised compensation, I''m afraid he would have no chance to turn over in the future.


    "There are many opportunities for Mojia village to continue doing business!" shopkeeper Shen patted shopkeeper Hu on the shoulder.


    "Hmm!" shopkeeper Hu wiped his snot and tears all over his face, which made him out of control under great sorrow and joy.


    Subsequently, the cheated people with more than one money and silver ticket received compensation. The case of fake silver ticket was finally settled by the compensation of Mojia village and the reissue of the second-generation silver ticket.


    However, although the Mohists tried their best to solve the fake silver ticket case and closed the case as soon as possible, it still inevitably affected the reputation of the silver ticket. In addition to the Mohist village, the acceptance of silver tickets in Luoyang and Chang''an fell into a low ebb.


    "Merton, the bill business continues to grow, but although the second-generation silver notes have been replaced, the circulation is still less than that when the first-generation silver notes were at their peak." Shen frowned. It is reasonable to say that the second-generation silver notes have just been issued, which has eliminated the possibility of fake Silver notes, but the acceptance of silver notes is still in the doldrums.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "compared with heavy copper money, silver notes have natural advantages. Banks don''t have to be too urgent. As long as they guarantee the credit of silver notes, more and more people are willing to accept silver notes. However, banks can''t be indifferent and need to take the initiative."


    "Take the initiative to attack?" Shen Hongcai didn''t understand.


    Merton nodded: "for ordinary citizens, there are enough places to deposit copper money in their homes. Silver tickets are mainly aimed at merchants who settle frequently, and where are the most merchants in Chang''an city."


    "East and West!" Shen Hongcai suddenly realized.


    Merton nodded: "Mojia village bank can set up two more branches in the East and West cities, directly set up exchange business and bill of exchange business in the East and West cities, and identify the authenticity of silver tickets. In this way, merchants can easily trade without going out of the market. Who can refuse Silver tickets?"


    "That''s a good idea!" Shen Hongcai said with a bright eye. The two branches only need to use a small amount of money and manpower to solve the bank crisis. It''s a cost-effective thing.


    "I''m afraid it will be difficult to build the branches in the East and West cities in a short time. There is still a hidden worry for banks that needs to be prevented in advance." Shen Hongcai said seriously.


    "Master, please?" Merton said positively.


    Shen Hongcai said, "the bank has escorted 300000 Guan to the library in the imperial palace. Coupled with 20000 Guan in the case of compensation for fake silver tickets, the issuance of silver tickets has suddenly decreased, and the bank''s cash has been very nervous. If there is another accident, I''m afraid it will damage the reputation of Mohism."


    "Cash is tight!" Merton immediately frowned. Now the size of Mojia village is very large and expands rapidly. It needs to ensure sufficient cash flow to operate. Once the capital chain breaks, the impact on Mojia will be fatal.


    "The owner is not good. I don''t know when the business circles in Chang''an say that Mojia village is short of cash. Now many merchants ask to trade with Mojia cash and no longer accept silver tickets." Xu Jie came in a hurry with bad news.


    "This matter is extremely confidential. How could it come out?" Shen Hongcai exclaimed.


    Merton immediately gnashed his teeth and said, "son Qian''s house!"


    "Could it be that Zi Qian''s family is making trouble behind this matter?" Shen Hongcai and Xu Jie exclaimed.


    Shen Hongcai is a member of a hundred families, and Xu Jie was once an elite in Chang''an city. Naturally, they have heard of the name of the Ziqian family. They never thought that the Mohist family was targeted by this vampire.


    Merton nodded and said, "although we didn''t catch the real evidence, with all kinds of clues and the case of the golden cicada coming out of the shell of Yuanxiang bank, it must be Ziqian''s family."


    Xu Jie frowned, but he knew how terrible the Ziqian family was. Once an ordinary merchant was infected, he was afraid that he would immediately fall into a hopeless place. When he was in crisis, some Ziqian family wanted to borrow from him. He avoided him like a snake and a scorpion. Even if he was a strong man, he didn''t fall into the trap.


    "Since Ziqian family wants to weigh the Mohist family, we have to accompany them to the end. Shopkeeper Xu sent a letter to all the banks in Chang''an City, saying that I have business with the Mohist family." Merton said with a smile.


    "All the banks!" Shen Hongcai frowned.


    "Boss, the bank has a bad reputation. What are we looking for the bank to do?" Xu Jie didn''t understand.


    Merton laughed and said, "what else can we do when we find a bank? Naturally, we borrow indian money!"


    "Ah!" they suddenly exclaimed. I''m afraid Merton knows the harm to the printing money best. The game of a penny can tell the sinister of the printing money, but they didn''t expect that Merton took the initiative to borrow the printing money.


    "To be exact, it should be to borrow money from the money house," Merton corrected.


    "Are you so sure that these banks are all Zi Qian''s?" Shen Hongcai frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "of course not. As the saying goes, the cunning rabbit three caves, how can the Ziqian family only have the coat of Yuanxiang bank? Among these banks, there must be Ziqian family hidden. The Mohist family has no time to choose one by one, so they have to find them all!"


    These banks may not be all Ziqian family, but Merton firmly believes that some of them must be puppets of Ziqian family.


    "What, mojiazi wants to borrow money from us!"


    As soon as the news came out, the major banks in Chang''an City were in an uproar.


    It is natural that the major banks have heard a lot about what kind of people the mojiazi is. In particular, the recent case of counterfeit bank notes and the fire at Yuanxiang bank have pushed the mojiazi and the bank to the forefront of the wave.

 Chapter 847

    The news that mojiazi borrowed money from his son was very sudden. When mojiazi''s worship posts were sent to major banks in Chang''an City, the managers of all banks gathered together to discuss.


    "The Mohist would not doubt that we got fake silver tickets! That''s a great injustice! That''s....................." the shopkeeper of a bank quickly shut up for fear that it might come out of his mouth.


    "According to our information, Mojia village is really in financial difficulties recently, so it''s understandable to borrow money?" manager Yao of Huitong bank hesitated,


    "Isn''t that our chance?" a group of bank managers suddenly breathed. No one in Chang''an City doubted the ability of mojiazi to make money. If mojiazi could borrow printing money, wouldn''t it become their money making machine?


    Thinking of this possibility, people couldn''t help breathing.


    However, a shopkeeper in Qingyi sneered: "Mohist is a relative of the emperor. If he doesn''t pay back, can you still come to the door to collect debts?"


    The shopkeepers of the bank immediately poured a basin of cold water. The bank''s way to deal with ordinary people who can''t print money is to press for debt by violence and release print money to a royal family and relatives. I''m afraid they are impatient.


    "What are you afraid of? Is there someone behind the Mohist family and no one behind us? If the Mohist family dares not to pay back the money, we can ruin his reputation." shopkeeper Yao said proudly. Not everyone can release printed money. It must be the local rich and powerful people. There is no dense interest chain behind any bank.


    "Yes, people like mojiazi are extremely fond of feathers and will certainly not do anything treacherous." a shopkeeper echoed. With their years of experience in printing money, the more such people, the better to urge debt.


    The shopkeeper in Qingyi shook his head and said, "I hope so, but it''s impossible for us to deal with the MOH family by dealing with ordinary people."


    Suddenly all the shopkeepers were silent. Shopkeeper Yao clenched his teeth and said, "then see the move."


    "In that case, I''ll go to meet the famous MOH family in Chang''an City for a while." the shopkeepers said in a voice and discussed one after another. They left one after another and asked for instructions from the people behind.


    In the burning basement, old craftsman Liu threw failed silver tickets into the stove.


    "I tell my boss that the second generation silver ticket in Mojia village is too precise. Please forgive me for my incompetence. I''m afraid it can''t be forged in a short time." old craftsman Liu said with a frightened face.


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family sighed with regret. Since Mohist Zi was sure of upgrading, he was a little sure that they couldn''t crack it. He had expected it, but he still couldn''t hide his disappointment.


    "It doesn''t matter. You don''t need to worry about other things. Just continue to crack!" the second owner of Ziqian family waved his hand, and then walked out of the basement with a gloomy face.


    "The Mohist family is really difficult!" the second owner of the Zi Qian family said angrily.


    At the moment, a familiar figure came in a hurry. This person was Cao Guangqi, the former big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank. I saw that Cao Guangqi shaved a flat head, took off his former shopkeeper''s robe and changed into Mohist''s ink clothes. The whole people''s Congress changed and seemed to be a loyal supporter of Mohism. No one expected that this person was the big shopkeeper of Yuanxiang bank who caused heavy losses in Mohist village.


    "The second owner, great joy! The news came from Chang''an city that mojiazi called all the major banks in Chang''an city to borrow money from them." Cao Guangqi said with a surprised look on his face.


    "The Mohist family borrowed money from India!" the second owner of the Zi Qian family said dubiously.


    Cao Guang nodded and said, "this matter has been spread all over the major banks in Chang''an city. It must be that our previous moves have worked. Mojia village is short of cash, so we are ready to borrow indian money."


    "Hahaha! You have today, too!" the second master of the Ziqian family immediately laughed, which could make the famous Mohist son bow to the Ziqian family and immediately make the second master of the Ziqian family proud.


    "News came from Chang''an city asking whether to lend to the mojiazi." Cao Guangqi asked.


    "Borrow, why don''t you borrow? How can Zi Qian''s family not make money and send a letter to Chang''an city. If Mo Jia Zi can borrow money to complete him, if not, spoil him!" said the second owner of Zi Qian''s family in a cold voice.


    Sure enough, as Merton expected, these banks do have puppets of Ziqian family, or Ziqian families large and small.


    "Yes, the second owner!" Cao Guangqi replied.


    With the passage of time, the news that mojiazi was ready to borrow indian money soon came from Chang''an City, and there was an uproar everywhere he went.


    "How is it possible for Mohist to borrow money from India?" all those who heard this news couldn''t believe it. In everyone''s mind, Mohist has always been the ability to turn stone into gold. It seems that he has never been short of money, but he didn''t expect that even Mohist began to borrow money from India.


    "Hey! It''s not that the Mojia village has been disturbed by fake silver tickets. It costs 20000 yuan only to compensate those cheated, which is even more detrimental to the reputation of silver tickets. In addition, the Mojia village spends a lot of money, which is what''s happening today." an insider explained.


    "Then you can''t borrow money from India! Everyone who is contaminated with money from India has been stripped of a layer of skin. The black sheep of the Wang rich man''s family in the east of the city borrowed money from India and directly defeated the whole family. Old man Huang in the west of the city borrowed money from India in order to cure his illness, and finally sold his daughter..."


    One by one, the people talked about the examples of family destruction and death due to printing money in Chang''an City, which was found everywhere.


    "Mojiazi is a means of turning stone into gold. Maybe it''s just a short turnover, and it''s OK to pay it back when it''s due." some people still believe in the miraculous mojiazi and said firmly.


    "I don''t think so. I''m afraid it''s difficult for even the Mozi family to pay back the printing money." another person objected.


    Some people in Chang''an City oppose and some believe in mojiazi, but among the merchants in Chang''an City, they are silent one after another. Merchants are the people who need money most. It is common for merchants to borrow money. Even when they have to, they will take the risk to borrow money.


    If even the Mo family fell on the printing money, they must be who can escape the magic of printing money.


    For a moment, the eyes of Chang''an City were focused on the Mohist School and major banks, even in the imperial palace.


    "Your Majesty, this is the memorial sent by Chang''an County Government. The case of fake silver ticket has been closed." pound respectfully handed a memorial to Li Shimin.


    "Blame a small shopkeeper, this is the end of the case!" Li Shimin took it and threw the memorial aside with a sneer.


    "It is said that the emperor''s son-in-law also agreed to close the case in this way." pound said first.


    "Merton is forced by the situation. The longer he delays, the greater the credit blow to the silver note. Only by closing the case and adding that there will be no fake silver note in the second generation of silver note in a short time, can the bank return to normal." Li Shimin saw through the plans of the Mohists at a glance.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" pound complimented.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Merton is used to the wind and the water. Let him suffer in the hands of Ziqian''s family."


    Pound hesitated and said, "speaking of Ziqian''s family, there is another news in Chang''an city. It is said that Mojia village is short of money recently, and the son-in-law is ready to borrow money from major banks in Chang''an city."


    "I didn''t expect that this boy is tough. He would rather borrow money than bow to me." Li Shimin said with a sneer. If Merton bowed to him and misappropriated 300000 yuan first, he would not allow it in the face of Princess Changle.


    Pound frowned and said, "Your Majesty, that''s money. I''m afraid it''s hard to get away once it''s contaminated!"


    "Don''t worry about it. Merton is very slippery. Naturally, he has suffered a loss from the Ziqian family once. How can he fall twice in the same place." Li Shimin doesn''t believe that Merton will obediently let the Ziqian family exploit him.


    Amid the discussion, Merton finally reached the time agreed with the major banks.


    The yuzhuangyuan building has long been closed and clean, waiting for a group of bank managers to come to the door.


    Just as the time was approaching, an old carriage stopped quietly, and shopkeeper Yao in coarse clothes stepped out of the carriage. At the same time, shopkeepers appeared one after another, some riding on a thin old horse, some getting off the four-wheel bus, and even walking.


    Almost everyone was dressed in plain clothes. If they were placed in Chang''an City, they might not be as good as ordinary people. They were like the bank managers who controlled huge wealth. They ignored each other, handed in their invitations and walked into the fish champion building.


    "I''ve seen your peers!" Shen Hongcai, who was in charge of the reception, bowed. Both banks and banks operate money. It''s not inappropriate for Shen Hongcai to call a group of bank managers peers.


    "Don''t dare! Don''t dare! Master Shen is an expert in mathematics and a national son doctor granted by the imperial court. How can we say it together with master Shen?" shopkeeper Yao immediately looked terrified, and other shopkeepers also leaned over to salute.


    Master Shen said with a smile, "you''re welcome. I''ve just started to talk about the way of money. You are pioneers. Although you work in the bank, it''s inevitable that you are proficient in arithmetic. It''s not too much to say that you and I are proficient in arithmetic and deal with money. What if you''re not a colleague?"


    "Master Shen praised me!" said the shopkeeper in Qingyi.


    The shopkeepers were arrogant for a while. Although they were not in a high position, they were really a rare master of mathematics to be the shopkeepers of the bank.


    "Please sit down!" Shen Hongcai reached out his hand and asked everyone to enter the fish champion building.


    All the bank managers took their seats and looked at each other. The manager in Qingyi got up and said, "master Shen, although I admire your knowledge and status, I''m afraid you can''t be the master of bank lending. I don''t know where mohou is. Please introduce me. We''ve heard a lot about the legend of Chang''an city."


    Other bank managers nodded one after another. Although Shen Hongcai is the big manager of Mojia village bank, he is afraid he can''t be the home of Mojia village.


    Shen Hongcai didn''t care at all and said, "this is nature. I''m just throwing a brick to attract jade. It''s mohou who really discusses lending with you."


    Say it! As soon as Shen Hongcai turned around, a young face appeared in front of the people. They were awed and immediately realized that the young man was probably today''s master Mo Jiazi.


    Although the Mo family recently suffered a great loss in the hands of the Zi Qian family, no one here despised him and led the recovery of 100 families in the year of weak crown, which is not what an ordinary person can do.


    "I''ve seen mohou!" the shopkeepers got up and saluted one after another.


    "Please sit down!" Merton waved.


    "No, No." the shopkeepers refused.


    Merton took the lead to sit down, and the shopkeepers sat down.


    "I believe you all know the purpose of summoning you today." Merton looked around and said in a loud voice.


    The bank managers nodded one after another.


    "Mohou is the pride of Chang''an city. As soon as mohou gives an order, we will naturally agree!" a shopkeeper said.


    "That''s right! You can tell me how much money mohou needs. Huitong bank can certainly bear it alone." shopkeeper Yao said proudly.


    "Shopkeeper Yao, let''s see. The matter of mohou is our business. How can we bother Huitong bank and Jufeng bank?" shopkeeper Qingyi hurried when he saw that shopkeeper Yao wanted to eat alone.


    "Yes, I can also bear part of it."


    Other shopkeepers also joked that no one was willing to give up this delicious fat meat of Mojia village.


    Merton looked around, showing an inexplicable smile and said, "you have a heart. Mo thanked you for the Mohists."


    "It''s easy to say. I don''t know how much mohou wants to borrow!" shopkeeper Yao said helplessly when he saw that he couldn''t eat alone.


    "A hundred thousand passes!" Merton said softly.


    "Well, I''m Jufeng bank... What? How much?" shopkeeper Yao was preparing to take charge of everything. Suddenly he realized that it was wrong and exclaimed.


    "A hundred thousand passes!" Merton said word by word.


    Suddenly, everyone couldn''t help taking a breath. They didn''t receive indian money, but I''m afraid such a high amount was unprecedented. Now they finally understand why Merton called them all. No matter which family could not eat such a high amount.

 Chapter 848

    "This......" shopkeeper Yao opened his mouth, but he was speechless. I''m afraid he really can''t get so much cash with his strength.


    "Why, don''t you have so much money?" Merton said with a smile.


    Many shopkeepers were embarrassed. I''m afraid the people behind them would have to come forward and look at each other for such a large amount. The shopkeeper in Qingyi got up and said, "don''t worry about the money. You can raise enough at that time. However, whenever you borrow money, you can guarantee it. I don''t know whether Hou Mo has something of considerable value as a guarantee. After all, this is not a small amount."


    The shopkeepers held their breath and immediately knew that the play was coming. The guarantee here was not that the goods could not be paid, but that they would be confiscated if they did not pay back the money.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "the wine shop under the Mohist village solves thousands of worries. It is the best wine in the world. It makes countless profits every year. It''s good to take it as a guarantee!"


    "Solve thousands of worries!" people couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. This is a rare high-quality industry.


    The shopkeeper in Qingyi shook his head and said, "although jieqianchou is still known as the best wine in the world, it might have been possible before, but after all, the secret distillation technique has been leaked. There are countless good wines all over the country, and the value of jieqianchou may not be guaranteed."


    Other bank managers nodded in agreement. Mojia village is a big fat meat. It can''t satisfy everyone''s appetite to solve thousands of worries alone.


    "That means..." Merton said calmly.


    "If you want to guarantee 100000 yuan of printing money, you must add the glass secret skills of Mojia village." the Qingyi shopkeeper said with a little excitement.


    Suddenly all the shopkeepers couldn''t help breathing. To say what makes the most money in Mojia village, it should be the secret skill of glass. It''s the only business in Datang, and it''s very popular. The reason why jieqianchou can keep the reputation of the best wine in the world is the crystal clear glass wine bottle.


    Morton saw this and said, "it''s not impossible for you to want glass secret skills, but we have to discuss the interest."


    "Interest!" the shopkeepers were both happy and sad. They were glad to have the opportunity to get the glass secret skill of Mojia village. They were worried that the most sinister place of printing money was interest. If Mojia Zi insisted on reducing interest, I''m afraid their plot would eventually fail.


    "As far as I know, there are two kinds of interest on printed money, one is lamb interest and the other is donkey rolling." Merton said with a smile.


    "Mohou is erudite."


    A group of bank managers nodded awkwardly. In the past, they used two kinds of usury to harm people. However, in front of the knowledgeable Mo family, they felt ashamed of themselves.


    "If you expect, if you use lamb interest, the Mohists will pay back 200000 yuan in a year!" Merton broke his fingers and seemed to calculate it seriously.


    "Mohou''s mathematics is unparalleled in the world. We really don''t dare to teach others. However, if mohou is too high, we can discuss it again." shopkeeper Shen restrained his greed and earned 100000 yuan of profits a year, which they dare not think of.


    "No, the Mohists can''t earn so much money a year and can''t afford to pay it back!" Merton refused without hesitation.


    "Lord Hou, it''s better to consider some donkey rolling. It''s easy to say in terms of interest." the shopkeeper in Qingyi said with a smile.


    Merton turned and asked Shen Hongcai, "master Shen, how much is the interest on the donkey rolling."


    "The daily interest rate is 3% and the annual interest rate is 200%. Shen Hongcai said expressionless.


    Merton was surprised and said, "in this way, the Mohist family will pay back 200000 yuan of interest in a year."


    "It''s just the interest of ordinary people. Naturally, it won''t be used on mohou. As long as mohou opens his mouth, it''s easy to say about the interest." shopkeeper Shen Lang said.


    "Really easy to say?" Merton tempted.


    The shopkeepers solemnly nodded and said, "mohou is also an expert. Master Shen is a master of mathematics. Please report the accurate number."


    Naturally, the shopkeepers knew that their previous tricks were useless in front of the two math experts. They agreed.


    "Since you are so cheerful, Mo is not selling off. Too much interest will not be accepted by Mojia village, nor will rolling interest." Merton got up and looked around at the people.


    Suddenly, many people flashed a trace of unhappiness. Rolling profits is the killer mace of the bank to release printing money. If Merton didn''t borrow a huge amount of money and expect future benefits, they wouldn''t talk about conditions for Merton at all. However, due to the power of mojiazi, they didn''t refute.


    "Please tell me about the interest," said shopkeeper Yao with a kind smile.


    Merton threw the ground and said, "I don''t care how you divide it. The annual interest rate is 6% for a year, 7% for two years, and so on. The annual interest rate is 1 point for five years. Of course, this is also the highest interest. The interest is settled when it expires, not included in the compound interest, and all of it will be returned when it expires. If the Mojia village can''t return it as scheduled, all the things guaranteed will belong to you, you and me will be cleared."


    "The annual interest rate is 6%, which is impossible!"


    Suddenly, all the bank managers were in an uproar, and their faces changed greatly. In their view, the requirements of mojiazi were simply Arabian Nights. Usually, their daily interest rate was 3%, while the annual interest rate of mojiazi was only 6%, and the highest interest rate was only 1%, which was just to send beggars.


    "Mohou, you are trying to break the rules of printing money! Since ancient times, there has never been such a low interest rate for putting money." the smile on shopkeeper Yao''s face disappeared and said angrily.


    "Too low?" Shen Hongcai sneered: "take the annual interest rate of 6%, Mojia village has to pay 6000 yuan a year. If it is the highest five-year loan, one point of interest, Mojia will pay 50000 yuan of interest when it expires. Is that too small?"


    The people were immediately silent. Although they made huge profits, they would not go this way as long as they were not in a desperate situation. Therefore, customers did not have them every day. If calculated in this way, they probably didn''t make much money by directly giving the printing money to the Mohists.


    Moreover, with the reputation and strength of Mohism, the money is stable, safe and risk-free. Even if it is printing money, it will worry about the kind of fish dead and the net broken.


    "There are a lot of 50000 passes, but I''m afraid there won''t be much if they are distributed to each bank. There is too much principal and the interest cycle is too long. More importantly, mohou has broken the rules of the bank for thousands of years. Please forgive me. We can''t accept it." shopkeeper Yao shook his head.


    Many bank managers nodded one after another. If they broke the rules of printing money because of Mojia village, it would not be so easy to lend to others and charge high profits.


    "If you have something to say, business is business. In that case, let''s take a step back. How about the bank giving up donkey rolling and mohou raising the interest to five cents a year?" the Qingyi shopkeeper obviously didn''t want to give up such huge interests and tried his best to take the way.


    Shen Hongcai sneered: "the annual interest rate is five cents. The annual interest rate in Mojia village is 50000 yuan. You think it''s so easy to earn five copper coins!"


    Qingyi shopkeeper smiled awkwardly. Fifty thousand Guan a year is really not a small number. He continued to argue: "if Marquis Mo thinks it can''t, he can continue to discuss."


    Merton shook his head and said, "the maximum annual interest rate is one point. It can''t be more."


    "Then we have nothing to say! Please forgive the inability of Huitong bank to help mohou!" shopkeeper Yao got up and arched his hands.


    The shopkeepers of other banks also got up one after another and advanced and retreated together.


    "Teacher, see off!" Merton waved his big hand.


    "Farewell!" all the shopkeepers left one after another.


    "Dr. Shen, please continue to persuade mohou. It''s really not good. The annual interest rate is four points, and the lowest is three points. It can''t be lower." when going out, the Qingyi shopkeeper advised Shen Hongcai with great care. Unfortunately, Shen Hongcai shook his head with regret.


    Shen Hongcai returned to Merton and asked, "have you ever noticed who is the real son Qian?"


    Merton shook his head and said, "it doesn''t matter. It can even be said that each of them is a Ziqian family. The combination of money and wealth benefits both sides. It is clear that they can help others and gain a full harvest. However, driven by greed, the Ziqian family sits and fishes."


    Shen Hongcai regretted and said, "you have clearly pointed out a clear way to them, but they abandoned it."


    It can''t be said that Ziqian''s family is short-sighted, but they can''t give up their interests easily. Those Ziqian are bloody Ziqian.


    "Come out, come out!"


    Mozi has to borrow money to print money has already spread throughout the whole city of Changan, before the fish champion building, it was already full of eyeliner, and saw a crowd of shopkeeper shopkeeper''s face of iron and green come out, can not help but exclaim.


    "It seems that the talk has collapsed!"


    Many people observed the words and colors, which makes people itch and want to explore what happened in it?


    "One hundred thousand Guan, Mohist Zi wants to borrow one hundred thousand Guan printing money!"


    Soon, the latest news came. When the citizens of Chang''an learned the amount that mojiazi wanted to borrow, they couldn''t help but be startled. In the eyes of ordinary people, 100000 Guan is an astronomical figure, while mojiazi wanted to borrow 100000 Guan of printing money.


    "If it''s profitable!" many people broke their fingers and couldn''t help but be tongue tied about their amazing figures.


    "Is it because the MOH family is out of his mind? How can he borrow 100000 yuan of printing money? What can he take to pay back?" many people lamented.


    A well-informed merchant said, "it is said that Mohist Zi used the solution of thousands of worries and glass secret skills as a guarantee."


    There was an uproar. These two are the most profitable businesses in Mojia village, especially the glass secret skills. If the price is 100000, I''m afraid the aristocratic family will not hesitate to run out of money.


    "Nothing can stop the profits of printing money." a man who has seen the power of printing money sniffed.


    "Do you think mojiazi is the same as Murano fool? He negotiated with the bank to ask for an annual interest rate of 6%." the merchant shouted.


    "The annual interest rate is six percent!"


    Everyone can''t believe it. I''m afraid it''s the lowest interest in the world.


    "The bank agreed!" asked an idle man.


    The merchant stalled and said, "how is it possible? Isn''t it a collapse?"


    "Oh!"


    People don''t know whether they are sorry or happy for Mojia Zi. They are happy that Mojia Zi doesn''t have to be exploited by printing money. Unfortunately, the money crisis in Mojia village still hasn''t been solved.


    In the secret manor outside Chang''an City, the second owner of Zi Qian''s family heard the report from shopkeeper Cao and said with a sneer, "100000 Guan! The annual interest rate is 6%. Mohist Zi really dares to think."


    The Ziqian family is the most greedy. The interest rate of 6% a year is an insult to them. They can''t help but say sarcastically.


    Shopkeeper CaO on one side worried: "although the interest rate of the second owner, Mohist is low, the amount of borrowing is huge, and the overall interest is a lot. Coupled with Mohist credit, it is a certainty that they can repay the money. I''m afraid some banks can''t stand the temptation!"


    The Ziqian family is the best to understand the Ziqian family. In the face of huge interests, I''m afraid all principles can be interviewed. The interest of 50000 yuan in five years is not a small amount, which is enough for the Ziqian family without a bottom line to abandon the bottom line.


    The second owner of Ziqian family sneered: "If you can pay back the money, when will the Ziqian family need the borrower to pay back the money? The reason why the Mojia family can have such confidence and offer such low interest is that the Mojia village is not at the end of its poverty. Send someone to send a message to Chang''an bank. If anyone breaks the rules of the Ziqian family and lends to the Mojia village, don''t blame the Ziqian family for being ruthless."


    "Yes!" shopkeeper Cao bowed his head immediately.


    The second owner of Ziqian family sneered: "at that time, when there is a shortage of silver in Mojia village, we have to ask Ziqian family for help. We still have to mention what conditions we have at that time. What are the secret skills of wine shop and glass? The bank is the only way out for Ziqian family. The best result of Mojia is to take 300000 Guan out of the Royal Library. At that time, the opportunity for Ziqian family will come."


    "Two wise masters!" shopkeeper Cao couldn''t help surging. At that time, he can walk openly in Chang''an city again.


    With the news that the Mohist family borrowed 100000 yuan of printing money spreading wantonly in Chang''an City, everyone can''t help but smack at it. The impact is even stronger than the 300000 yuan of money offered by the Mohist family, because everyone knows how powerful the printing money is.


    As mysterious people went in and out of the major banks, news came from the major banks one after another that the Millennium rule of Indian money could not be broken, and the banks could not accept the interest of Mohism.


    "It''s a delusion for the Mohist family to stir up the rules of printing money for thousands of years alone." many hundreds of schools and aristocratic families couldn''t help feeling when they heard the news.


    After receiving this letter, Merton was silent for a long time and suddenly said with a smile: "in that case, the Mohist school will let Ziqian know that Ziqian doesn''t play like this."


    Shen Hongcai nodded solemnly.

 Chapter 849

    "The young master is back!"


    "Hello, young master!"


    When Merton stepped into the ink house, he met each ink house. Everyone came forward to say hello, but everyone didn''t smile. The whole ink house was strangely silent.


    "What''s the matter today?" Merton felt the strange atmosphere in the ink house and scratched his scalp.


    "Good master! This is the apprentice''s schoolwork." Wu Meiniang changed her jumping character in the past, quietly came to salute and asked Merton to check with her thick schoolwork.


    "Well done, keep working hard." Merton nodded with satisfaction and encouraged.


    Wu Mei Niang nodded firmly and said, "I will redouble my efforts to share my worries for the master in the future."


    "Share your worries?" Merton wondered. Do I look very sad?


    It was not until now that Merton found that the whole children of the Mohist family were wearing very simple clothes. Originally, after the Mohist village became rich, although the Mohist family did not advocate luxury, people''s clothes inevitably used good materials. In addition, aunt Xu, a clothing expert, was there, and the clothes of the Mohist family increased sharply. Today, Merton suddenly found that, Everyone quietly changed into the most simple clothes.


    "My husband is back! Wash up and have dinner!" before Merton thought more, he saw the gentle Princess Changle looking forward to at the door of the villa.


    Seeing his wife waiting, Merton immediately put all his thoughts behind him, came forward and took Princess Changle''s hand and walked into the villa.


    "Come, my husband, eat!" Princess Changle sat next to Merton and waited on her gently.


    Merton was busy all day and just hungry. After finishing two bowls, he found that although today''s meals were complete, most of them were produced by Mojia village. There were no delicacies commonly used by Princess Changle, but Princess Changle ate them with relish.


    "These are simple meals. I''ll ask aunt Yu to make some more for you." Merton said painfully. Princess Changle has been in the palace for a long time and her daily dishes are delicacies. Where can I get used to these home-made dishes.


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "I''ve let go of those delicacies. Aunt Yu''s craftsmanship is not bad. Moreover, these dishes are cultivated by Mo DA from the Mohist experimental field. Chickens, ducks and fish are produced by Mohist village. They are fresh and clean. Since I married Mohist, I have to follow my husband and wife. How can I not sleep and eat with my husband?"


    Merton was immediately moved. Although the Mohists started cooking, there was no doubt about the taste, but the ingredients were very different. In order not to wrong Changle, Merton specially ordered the back kitchen to prepare precious ingredients for Princess Changle.


    "There''s no need to retreat. I''ve asked Mexico University to specialize in the artificial breeding of those mountain treasures. Once successful, the price of these mountain treasures will drop, but the output will soar, and the daily enjoyment of civilians is not extravagant." Merton said softly.


    "Forget it! Now the Mojia village is short of money. If you and my husband work together, we can tide over the difficulties." Princess Changle said firmly.


    "Did you hear the rumors outside?" Merton suddenly realized why the atmosphere of the whole ink house was wrong. Princess Changle was determined to save money and clothes again.


    "Are you going to hide it from me now? Mojia village lost a lot because of the fake silver ticket case some time ago, and now I have to borrow 100000 yuan of printing money. I can''t help. Only by managing my family well can i tide over the difficulties together." Princess Changle said firmly.


    Merton laughed and said: "who told you that Mojia village had to borrow money, but in fact, many people borrow more money when they have more money. It''s difficult for you to borrow money when the situation is good and when the water runs out of poverty."


    "The more money you have, the more money you borrow. Have you forgotten our game of a penny?" Princess Changle opened her eyes. It was the first time he heard this theory.


    "My husband will not borrow the printing money trapped in the mire. You don''t have to worry about the bank. It can be solved in a few days. Mojia village is far from asking you to save money." Merton said painfully.


    "Don''t hold on. If you really can''t hold on, you can''t borrow money. If you can''t hold your face, I''ll ask my father to come back and tide over the difficulties first." Princess Changle worried.


    She was aware of the rivalry between Merton and her father-in-law. When she had to, Merton would never bow to Li Shimin. As a daughter and wife, she could deal with it without making the scene too embarrassing.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He competed with Li Shimin. It was only the unique ecology of his son-in-law and father-in-law since ancient times, not hostility.


    "You think I don''t want your majesty to ask for help because of face. Of course not. This 300000 pass is the credit foundation of the silver note and can''t be moved. Otherwise, the bank layout of the Mohist school will be destroyed." Merton explained that he didn''t want Princess Changle to misunderstand and and get caught in the middle.


    Although Li Shimin always pits him, he also wants to earn a breath in front of Li Shimin. However, this is nothing above the great cause of the revival of Mohism. If he really runs out of money, he will die to lose face.


    "In addition, the revival of Mohism must be self-reliance. If we rely on the support of outsiders, how can it last long? All the suffering is just a test of Mohism. Only Mohism overcomes it, can it stand among the hundred schools." Merton solemnly said.


    Hearing the speech, Princess Changle turned her worry into joy and asked, "is the bank so important?"


    Although Princess Changle didn''t have money, she was more curious about the bank when she saw that Merton paid so much energy and money for the bank.


    Merton laughed and said, "Taoism pays attention to the method of financial partners, and directly ranks wealth first. Do you say that banks are important? If ink technology is the foundation of Mohist revival, banks will add wings to Mohist revival."


    But he knew how difficult it was to start the Mojia village because of the lack of funds. It can be said that every penny of money was earned by the sweat of the children of the Mojia. Moreover, the study of ink technology and the establishment of workshops of the Mojia village were a gold eater. How can it be long-term without money.


    "Return the money to the law, but why does this bank only lose money, and now it is reduced to borrowing money." Princess Changle said angrily.


    Merton laughed and said, "how can I be fooled by Ziqian''s family? It''s just to test the Qian''s family. Unfortunately, Ziqian''s family rejected the Mohist''s kindness."


    Princess Changle turned her eyebrows and said, "if Ziqian''s family is willing to borrow, are you really willing to pay the interest of 50000 yuan for five years?"


    Five years and fifty thousand, that''s the interest of nearly ten thousand every year. It''s not a small amount!


    "That''s natural! This is the most reasonable interest." Merton nodded without hesitation.


    If the Ziqian family is really willing to go hand in hand with the Mohist family with their own financial resources, the Mohist family does not mind sharing the interest to the Ziqian family. Unfortunately, the Ziqian family has been controlled by their greed and can not become a Taoist friend on the way forward.


    "But Ziqian''s family has rejected your offer, and you refuse to bow to your father and use the 300000 Guan. What should we do about the crisis in Mojia village?" Princess Changle worried.


    Merton laughed and said, "of course, continue to borrow from the richest people in the world."


    "Keep borrowing!" Princess Changle opened her mouth and said in surprise.


    Merton sold a pass and asked Princess Changle, "do you know who is the richest in the world?"


    "Who else can there be? It must belong to the father and emperor, but some millennial aristocratic families also have deep accumulation and return the son Qian family... No, it should be the Treasury that has the most money." Princess Changle guessed one after another.


    Merton shook his head with a smile and said, "in my opinion, the richest person in the world is not Ziqian family, nor his majesty and aristocratic family, nor the Treasury, but the people in the world."


    "The richest people in the world?" Princess Changle couldn''t help thinking.


    "A common people''s money is naturally not much, but what a huge fortune it will be if countless common people''s money in the world add up. Since Ziqian family doesn''t want to give money to Mohism, how about letting the people all over the world give money to Mohism?" Merton said excitedly.


    "People all over the world give money to the Mohists!"


    Princess Changle looked at her crazy husband. She didn''t know whether to call him a genius or a madman. She unexpectedly thought of such a fantastic plan.

 Chapter 850

    Although Merton put forward a method to solve the crisis of Mojia village, this method is very unreliable and unimaginable in the eyes of Princess Changle.


    So Princess Changle decided to continue to promote the frugality of the whole ink house. In the ink house, she set an example and reduced the cost of the ink house,


    In the lead of Princess Changle, Mohist children followed suit one after another, and the frugality soon directly affected the whole Mohist village.


    "Clothes are not expensive, they fit."


    "Food is not essence, but sufficient nutrition."


    "What is frugality is not to be stingy and stingy, but to avoid extravagance and waste, extravagance and debauchery. Every penny of money is worth it."


    The front page headline of Mohist magazine solemnly publicized the Mohist concept of economy to the world, which made many people nod and agree. In this era of insufficient material, everyone should abide by the principle of diligence and thrift in running a family, whether it is a big family or a small family.


    "Who knows, every grain of Chinese food is hard."


    At the same time, Merton''s sympathizing poems have been widely publicized again. The Mohist Food City and the fish champion building have taken advantage of the trend to implement the CD-ROM action. If all the food on the table is eaten up, it''s a gift to enjoy the Mohist fever. Don''t prepare snacks.


    It has to be said that the CD-ROM action is very consistent with the Mohist concept of saving use. Eating the food in the CD-ROM is more practical than shouting the slogan of saving use.


    With the opening up of the Tang Dynasty, the people are also very bold and unrestrained. In addition, in recent years, driven by the Mohist ink technology, the economy of the Tang Dynasty is steaming daily, the people are becoming richer and richer, and the wind of luxury is becoming more and more popular. Whenever a guest orders a meal, he usually orders a full table, often leaving more than half of it, which is extremely wasteful.


    After the CD-ROM operation withdrew, it not only did not waste food, but also allowed diners to order on demand and less cauliflower gold. Once it was launched, it was highly praised. Even the most stubborn old Confucian scholars could not help praising this slogan and rarely stood on the side of Mohist school.


    In addition, the fish champion building can be said to be the wind vane of the catering industry in Chang''an city. He took the lead in launching the CD-ROM action, which was widely praised. Soon, major restaurants followed suit. For a while, the CD-ROM action became a beautiful scenery in Chang''an city.


    "You guys, it''s not me Zhao who is stingy today. We can eat as much as we can and eat the food on the CD without wasting." a businessman surnamed Zhao said proudly in a prosperous restaurant.


    If it had been before, it would have been ridiculed as stingy. However, under the call of the city''s CD-ROM action, it is very reasonable to order less dishes.


    "One person, one dish, can not only eat full, but also not waste."


    "Great goodness!"


    His companions echoed one after another.


    Such scenes can be found everywhere in restaurants. Many customers who have got up to check out have finished most of the things on the table.


    It is even impolite to say that the CD-ROM action extended from the concept of frugality is easier to accept than the Confucian self-restraint and frugality. A person has a limited appetite and can eat as many meals as he likes, regardless of the value of the ingredients.


    The Confucian self-restraint and thrift is a little extreme. Any exquisite food will be criticized, which is one of the reasons why CD-ROM action is very popular.


    "The CD-ROM operation is a bit interesting."


    In a restaurant, Li Shimin looked at the slogan on the wall and couldn''t help but show a knowing smile. Then he looked at the four dishes and one soup in front of him. He frowned. This is the limit of his frugality.


    "Wronged master!" pound said bitterly. Today''s majesty doesn''t need to be thrifty in this regard. They are making private visits abroad. Pound calls Li Shimin master.


    Li Shimin smiled, waved his hand and said, "what''s the matter? I didn''t even eat dry food for ten days when I was fighting in the north and south."


    "Sit down, too! I can''t finish eating anyway. If outsiders can''t see me, how can I arrange me?" Li Shimin motioned pound to sit down.


    "Thank you, sir!" pound was moved. He sat down sideways and set aside a piece of food from each meal. He not only ate the meal, but also tested the poison for Li Shimin.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin shook his head and smiled. He was no longer forced to enjoy delicious food with his heart.


    "You know, although this CD-ROM operation is from the Mohist school, who is the originator?" the merchant surnamed Zhao said mysteriously after three rounds of wine.


    "Oh, it''s not from the saving concept of Mohism. Naturally, it''s Mohism!" the companion affirmed. After all, there are too many anecdotes from Mohism. This little thing is nothing!


    The merchant surnamed Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, "you don''t know! Although the CD-ROM action comes from Mohism, it is advocated by the hostess of Mohism."


    "Mohist hostess?"


    "Princess Changle?"


    The crowd could not help exclaiming. They also heard such news for the first time.


    The conversation immediately attracted Li Shimin''s attention. He didn''t expect that the massive CD-ROM action was put forward by his daughter.


    The merchant surnamed Zhao nodded and said, "it''s a long story. You are the recent crisis of Mohism."


    "Who knows, the Mohist school sent to the imperial palace to store 300000 yuan and lost 20000 yuan in the case of fake silver tickets. Everyone knows that the Mohist school is very short of money. In addition, the Mohist school has broken down with the Zi Qian family. I''m afraid there isn''t much cash in the hands of the Mohist school! Who can think that the Mohist school who turned stone into gold will also be short of money." a companion said, this is the most popular news in Chang''an City recently, Well known conversation.


    The merchant surnamed Zhao nodded and said, "whoever takes out 320000 Guan at once, I''m afraid they''re short of money. In addition, other merchants take advantage of the fire and rob. They don''t accept silver tickets, but only cash. It''s hard for mojiazi."


    Everyone nodded.


    "Just when the Mohist school was in a difficult situation, Princess Changle stepped forward, set an example and took the lead in advocating the concept of conservation. The whole Mohist village followed suit one after another, which led to the theory of CD-ROM action."


    "I see. Princess Changle is really a model of a good wife and mother in the world. The Mohists are really lucky." everyone sighed that Princess Changle is virtuous.


    "The elder lady is so virtuous in running the family. It all depends on the master''s teaching and guidance." pound complimented one after another when he heard the speech.


    When Li Shimin heard the people praising his daughter, he couldn''t help showing a trace of pride on his face. Then his face was cold and said, "did I give my baby daughter to Merton to suffer with him?"


    As soon as Li Shimin heard that his daughter''s expenses were reduced, he immediately began to double standards.


    "Mohou is just in trouble right now. After going through the difficulties, he will certainly not treat the princess badly." pound helped.


    "100000 Guan is not a small amount to get through the difficulties. He has the ability to make money for nothing. He doesn''t know how many people are still so reckless staring at the Mojia village." Li Shimin gnashed his teeth.


    Mojia village has just risen and its foundation is unstable. The secret skill of Mojia village is a big fat meat in the eyes of everyone. In addition to its historical relationship with Confucianism, it can be said that wolves look around and 10000 people calculate.


    Ziqian''s family directly let Mojia village lose 20000 yuan. Is it going to hurt the muscles and bones of Mojia village? Obviously, it is impossible. The real fatal threat is that major merchants know that there is a shortage of silver in Mojia village, but they refuse silver tickets. As long as there is silver, they directly attack the key of Mojia village.


    "Nowadays, there is a big and powerful family in Chang''an city. No one of the aristocratic family will help the Mojia village raise money. This time, the Mojia Zi can''t get through it without a layer of skin." Li Shimin sneered. He is high above the world and sees it most clearly. This time, the crisis of the Mojia village can be said to be the joint efforts of Chang''an and Luoyang giants. The Ziqian family is just the main force, involving such a big force, He waited for mojiazi to ask him for help. Unfortunately, the boy was stubborn and ignored him at all.


    "This time, the Mo family has only one way to go, that is, either withdraw 300000 yuan of cash from the Imperial Palace, and the bank credit will be destroyed, or sell the wine shop industry and glass secret skills of the Mo family village. It depends on how the Mo family chooses." the merchant surnamed Zhao spits wildly in the restaurant.


    "Will Mohist really abandon the car to protect the marshal?" the world guessed one after another. One is the bank that Mohist wants to keep at a cost of 300000 yuan, and the other is the most profitable glass secret technology and winery industry of Mohist, which will hurt Mohist''s muscles and bones no matter how to choose.


    "Maybe both Mohists can be saved?" in fact, there has always been another option in everyone''s mind. However, seeing such a huge amount of 100000, everyone can''t help shaking their heads. Even if Mohists have repeatedly created miracles, this time, everyone is not optimistic about Merton.


    Li Shimin could not help shaking his head. This time, the major aristocratic families had a tacit understanding and did not use Yin moves. Even he could not interfere. Could he still force others to collect silver tickets.


    "The ink family has made a move. This time, it will be able to tide over the difficulties."


    Suddenly, there was a noise outside the restaurant, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at it.


    "What''s the move of the Mohist school?" the merchant surnamed Zhao quickly asked, holding a glass of water and wine in his hand and handing it to the idle man who just exclaimed.


    "Borrow money from India!" the idle man took the water and wine and drank it all at once.


    "Borrow money from India? Is it because those people who eat people and don''t spit bones agree to the interest rate of 6% a year?" all of a sudden, everyone said in an uproar. If the money family agrees, this is the lowest interest rate in the history of the money family.


    The idle man shook his head and said, "how is it possible? How can those Zi Qian families be willing to break the Millennium rules and smash their way of life."


    "So the Mozi family agreed to the usury of the Ziqian family?" the merchant surnamed Zhao exclaimed. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing as soon as he said this.


    Under the gaze of the crowd, the idle man sneered and shook his head and said, "of course it''s impossible. The Mohists are not stupid. How can they fall into the trap of the Zi Qian family."


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and put down the stone in his heart.


    "Who in Chang''an city can borrow his money? If you''re not polite, all the rich and powerful families in Chang''an city are waiting for mojiazi to sell the winery industry and glass secret skills of Mojia village!" the merchant surnamed Zhao frowned.


    The idle man looked around and said with a mysterious smile, "far away, near in front of you."


    Pound was suddenly surprised. His Majesty was exposed. Only his majesty could save Merton. What a terrible thing it would be for an idle man to know his Majesty''s whereabouts.


    However, Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and he couldn''t help thinking. He patted pound gently and motioned him not to act rashly.


    People couldn''t help looking at each other and didn''t understand what idle man meant.


    The merchant surnamed Zhao hesitated and said, "you mean me!"


    The idle man proudly said, "to be exact, it''s us. All of us can put printing money to mojiazi."


    "This..." they just felt that their heads were not enough.


    "Please speak clearly!" Li Shimin got up, took a glass of water and wine and motioned pound to pass it.


    The idle man took it and drank it all at once. His eyes brightened and said, "this wine is good!"


    "Speak quickly, speak quickly!" the crowd kept urging.


    The idle man stopped playing tricks and said directly, "the Bank of Mojia village has issued an announcement and began to collect money from the three places of Mojia village in Luoyang, Chang''an. All the people can release money from Mojia village."


    "We can also give money to the Mozi family." the merchants surnamed Zhao said unbelievably. Although they all despised the Ziqian family, none of them admired the Ziqian family''s ability to make money. No one thought that one day they could give money to the famous Mozi family like the Ziqian family.


    "Of course, the bank''s announcement is clearly written. Anyone can." the idle man said in a straight way.


    "But how can we have so much money!" a diner hesitated. Suddenly, many people shook their heads. What the Mexican family needed was 100000 yuan! Who can have so much money.


    The idle man said proudly, "you don''t have to worry about it. The announcement of Mojia village said that all printing money starts with a hundred Wen. No matter how low it is, there will be no way to calculate interest."


    "I don''t know how much interest will be paid to the Mexican family?" Li Shimin asked in a loud voice. Suddenly, everyone suddenly realized that they ignored the interest of the most important printing money, which is related to their future income!


    "One year''s printing money, the annual interest rate is three percent, two years'' printing money, the annual interest rate is three and a half miles,...... and so on, five years'' printing money, the annual interest rate is five percent." the idle man broke his fingers and came together.


    "Ah! The interest rate of three percent is too low!" the people sighed in disappointment. The interest rate is too low.


    "Before, the money printed by Mozi and Ziqian family still had an annual interest rate of 6%. How can it be halved directly?" they were dissatisfied.


    The merchant surnamed Zhao sneered, "that''s Ziqian''s family. People can take out tens of thousands of yuan at once. How much can you take? Can you compare it?"


    People are a little balanced. Their money is also in their hands and will not generate money. If they can pay three percent interest, it is also a good choice. If they don''t hurry to use it and put five years of printing money, it is a full five percent, which is not a small amount. Anyway, it is also buried underground. In addition, they don''t have to worry about the repayment ability of mojiazi at all.


    "Unfortunately, my money needs to be turned around at any time, otherwise I won''t miss such a good thing." the merchant surnamed Zhao regretted.


    The idle man said, "this is not necessarily true. There is also a kind of printing money. You can take it as you use it, with an annual interest rate of 1% and settle it on a daily basis. Of course, if you have less money, I''m afraid you won''t come over. If you put a year''s printing money, if you take it in advance, it''s also calculated by an annual interest rate of 1%


    When the merchant surnamed Zhao heard that Mohist Zi thought so considerate, he couldn''t help admiring him and said, "Mohist Zi is worthy of Mohist Zi. In this way, people all over the world can put money in print."


    "Wonderful! A person''s money may not be much, and there are many people in the three places, but when a little makes a lot, it must not be a small amount." a diner exclaimed.


    "So, didn''t the Mozi save both the workshop and the bank?" said the merchant surnamed Zhao.


    Mozi is worthy of being a Mozi. Even under the siege on all sides, he stubbornly killed a way to live and created a miracle again.


    "This time, Ziqian''s family must be angry. They didn''t agree with Mojia''s six percent loan before. Now Mojia village only needs three percent to borrow, which is half the interest." a diner smiled. He could see the notorious Ziqian''s dumb and extremely happy.


    "This is the MOH family!"


    People couldn''t help feeling that mojiazi was still the mojiazi who created miracles.


    Even Li Shimin could not help nodding slightly. Merton''s move was really beautiful. The thought that Princess Changle was going to go to Merton for trouble suddenly dissipated.

 Chapter 851

    "People all over the world give money to Mohists!"


    When the announcement of the bank came out, almost the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar. When everyone thought that mojiazi would be desperate, he could still do so. It was blind to everyone.


    When the rich and powerful families heard the news, they couldn''t help smiling bitterly and looking helpless. This is the Mo family. When others think it''s a dead situation, they can often come back from the dead and fight back.


    However, for many banks, it was almost a bolt from the blue. They were stunned and gathered again.


    "That''s ok?" manager Yao murmured.


    The shopkeeper in Qingyi smiled bitterly and said, "we can guarantee that the aristocratic family will not lend money to the Mo family, but we can''t guarantee that the people all over the world will not lend money to the Mo family!"


    All the banks have the interests of rich families behind them. In addition, they also have an eye on the Mo family. Naturally, they will not harm their own interests, but ordinary people can''t limit them.


    Those ordinary clay legs have never been in the eyes of the Zi Qian family, but this time they can''t help paying attention to them. The spare money in the hands of a people''s money is only a thousand dollars, but there are millions of people in Chang''an city. Even if one tenth of the people are willing to lend to the Mo family, it''s enough to raise 100000 yuan, Let alone Luoyang City, which is not inferior to Chang''an City, and Mojia village, an emerging land of wealth.


    "With an annual interest rate of 3%, such a low interest rate, do you think there will be people willing to lend to mojiazi?" a bank manager dared not buy the channel.


    The mojiazi''s proposal of an annual interest rate of 6% is already an insulting offer in their view, but they did not expect that mojiazi did better this time. He directly reduced the annual interest rate by half and borrowed from the people all over the world. This is simply a slap in the face operation.


    What''s more hateful is that this operation of Mohist school is theoretically possible to succeed, which makes all their plans fail.


    "Now it''s not what we decide. Just wait and see what happens!" shopkeeper Yao pointed out.


    The present bank manager nodded with understanding, and then dispersed one after another.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "I underestimated the Mo family!" in the secret manor outside the city, the second owner of the Zi Qian family couldn''t help humming after hearing the news.


    It is well known that Mojia Zi is recognized as difficult to deal with. He has made a preemptive strike and adopted a series of routines, but he still failed to grasp Mojia Zi.


    "The villain thinks that the Mohist school has made a stupid move. Since ancient times, the money has not been revealed. People often have money and are buried underground. Where are they willing to give all their possessions to others? Besides, the annual interest rate of 3% is too low! It is not enough for the people to take this risk." Cao Guangqi shook his head.


    "Money makes people feel weird. Some people want to hide all their money in a safe place only they know, so they can sleep at ease. However, it has always been that copper money will not produce a penny even if it is buried in the ground for a hundred years, and will only become poorer and poorer in the end. Some people want to be rich even if they sell all their family property, but do business You can''t even keep the capital in your hand. Of course, you can get rich overnight. Do you think it''s better to keep the money in your hand or use it? "The second owner of Ziqian family sighed.


    "Of course, my son Qian''s family has a good business. Use money to make money and make sure you don''t lose." Cao Guangqi said with a smile.


    The second owner of Zi Qian''s family smiled proudly and said, "yes, it''s difficult to make money with strength, but it''s easy to make money with money. No matter which generation, mud legs are not getting poorer, and wealth is concentrated in the hands of the rich."


    "The host is wise!" echoed Cao Guangqi.


    The tone of the second owner of the Zi Qian family suddenly turned cold and said, "however, I''m afraid the world will change now. The Mo family has found a way to make money for these mud legs."


    Cao Guangqi frowned and said, "does the second owner think that Mozi''s move will succeed?"


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family shook his head and said, "there will always be some greedy people greedy for these petty profits."


    "How much money can there be? I''m afraid it''s not even a fraction of 100000 Guan." Cao Guangqi said contemptuously.


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family shook his head and said, "I have to guard against it. Mozi is good at tricks and must be treated with caution."


    "If we don''t fight against the Mohist family, he will pay three percent interest, and we will pay six percent interest. In this way, we can certainly make the Mohist family empty." Cao Guangqi said in a flash.


    "Do you mean that our Ziqian family also wants those mud legs to give us printing money?" the second owner of Ziqian family looks at Cao Guangqi like a fool. Ziqian family takes printing money as their way of making a living and attaches great importance to every penny of money. How can he accept others to give him printing money? It''s like cutting meat from them.


    Cao Guangqi trembled in his heart and quickly explained: "compared with Indian money, the interest rate of 6% is very low. We still have enough profit, and we don''t need to use our principal."


    The second owner of Zi Qian''s family immediately moved in his heart, but he hesitated and said: "it''s not urgent for the time being. First observe the bank and then discuss it. It''s not so easy to want those mud legs to dig out the money buried in the soil."


    "Yes, the second owner!" Cao Guangqi said respectfully.


    People from all walks of life looked at it. But among the common people, Yin Ziqian was shocked by moton''s appeal to the people of the world. There was suspicion that the mob had a lot of eyes.


    "This is the last road of Mohist school. It''s time for Mohist school to fight whether it can create miracles." everyone focused on it one after another.


    Among the Mojia village bank, Shen Hongcai was also worried. When he learned about Merton''s plan, he couldn''t help being shocked by Merton''s idea.


    It is true that the money in the hands of the people all over the world is indeed an amazing wealth, even more than the wealth of all aristocratic families in the world. However, it may not be easy for the people all over the world to hand over all their wealth to the bank.


    However, with the passage of time, the bank draft business is still very busy. However, the specially opened deposit window is very cold, and there are few people at all.


    Although everyone knows that Merton is borrowing money from people all over the world, he certainly doesn''t think so. What he claims to the outside world is naturally a very familiar money saving business for future generations.


    "Right enough!" among the crowd, many of the money families saw that there was no one in the savings window at all.


    "Money is everyone''s lifeblood. Whoever is willing to hand over his hard-earned money to others for safekeeping, I''m afraid it''s not even easy to use the name of mojiazi this time."


    "Seeing this time, the invincible gold body of the Mohist school is about to break."


    People talked and gloated.


    At the moment, suddenly a luxurious carriage came and stopped firmly in front of the bank. A young man jumped down. It was Qin Huaiyu.


    "Uncle Qin, move the money box down!" Qin Huaiyu beckoned, and the housekeeper of the Qin family moved a heavy money box from the car.


    They walked into the bank in full view of the public.


    "Master, students are here to save money." Qin Huaiyu came forward and said respectfully.


    Shen Hongcai frowned and said, "if you are here to help Merton, you don''t have to. If the money saving business in Mojia village is successful, 100000 is nothing. If it fails, you can''t help with this money."


    The housekeeper of the Qin family smiled and said: "Mr. Shen misunderstood. The young master asked his wife to help Mo Hou, but his wife said that this little thing is not difficult to pour Mo Hou. Now it seems that it is true. This thousand Guan is the standby money of the Hou family. It is better to put it in the bank. You can make some small money when it expires. There are not many such good things!"


    Qin Huaiyu said, "we''re here to save money. Can it be that the bank doesn''t do my business!"


    Shen Hongcai naturally knew that Qin Huaiyu was the first to deposit money and had helped a lot to break the deadlock of the bank. He nodded and said, "no matter who comes to deposit money, I will accept it. In that case, we will act according to the rules. Look at the interest table and decide how long to deposit."


    "The kind of deposit and take!" Qin huaiyuli said immediately. He was the first to save money. Naturally, he wanted to help Merton and chose the one with the lowest interest. The housekeeper of the Qin family smiled and didn''t mean to dissuade.


    Shen Hongcai glared at Qin Huaiyu and said coldly, "then deposit it for one year with an annual interest rate of three percent. If necessary, take the certificate and pick it up at any time. It is also calculated according to an annual interest rate of one percent."


    Qin Huaiyu smiled awkwardly and said, "then do as the master said."


    "One thousand bonds, one year''s deposit period! The principal shall be paid one thousand and thirty bonds when due. If it is not withdrawn at maturity, it will be automatically transferred for one year."


    Shen Hongcai is business as usual and solemnly writes down the age limit and the amount due.


    "The income of thirty Guan in a year!" the housekeeper of Qin''s house couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. The income of thirty Guan is not a small amount! It''s enough for the Qin family to spend half a month. It''s an unexpected joy! I can''t help looking forward to the deposit business in Mojia village. Maybe this time, Mojia Zi can create a miracle again.


    Shen Hongcai waved his hand, quickly wrote the deposit certificate, set the secret charge, and told Qin Huaiyu, "remember the secret charge, even if someone steals your passbook, he can''t take your money."


    "Students understand!" Qin Huaiyu said solemnly.


    "You can also set up your certificates of deposit, if you lose the bank immediately, you will report the loss and take the registered residence to you." Shen Hongcai quickly handled the deposit slip and put it in the hands of Qin Huaiyu.


    "Students leave!" Qin Huaiyu took the deposit certificate and immediately got up and left.


    As soon as he walked out of the gate, he saw Chumo and Yuchi Baolin who hurried in. Qin Huaiyu proudly raised the deposit certificate in his hand and left.


    "This guy took the lead." Chumo and Chumo sneered, looked at each other, and squeezed into the bank.


    "Master, students come to save money." they said in unison.


    The housekeeper Cheng and housekeeper Wei Chi, who followed them, couldn''t help smiling bitterly and humbly stepped into the bank.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "But it''s an utterly inadequate measure to pull a few people in the relationship." many eyes are watching Qin Huaiyu''s three people leaving, not cold humming.


    The subsequent progress further confirmed these people''s speculation. Although there was the temptation of three to five percent interest, the deposit business of Mojia village bank was still tepid. In a few days, the deposit received was not as much as Qin Huaiyu''s family?


    "Mojiazi''s gold body has been broken, and the bank''s money saving business is simply whimsical."


    "The money is still safe in your own hands. Who will hand over your money to others?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many people scoff at the idea of absolute possession of property for a long time, which makes it impossible for them to deposit money in the Mojia village bank, even if someone wants an annual interest rate of 3%.


    The Qian family, a group of sons, can''t help gloating. They have the meaning of watching the jokes of the Mojia family. If there is no accident, I''m afraid the deposit business of the Mojia village bank will be yellow.


    However, things are changeable. No one can imagine that a small accident made the money saving business of Mojia Village fire.


    It''s night! At dawn, Chang''an city is about to resume a day of noise.


    "No, I''ve been robbed!" a sad voice came from a family in Yongle square, which suddenly broke the tranquility of Chang''an city.


    Chang''an city is the imperial capital and the richest place in the world. Naturally, there will be people of three religions and nine schools, among which people from thousands of schools are banned repeatedly.


    "The Zhou family was robbed."


    "It is said that two hundred liang of snow silver have been lost!"


    Soon the news came, and everyone discussed it one after another.


    The Zhou family was born as a merchant. They usually keep cash at home for turnover. This time, they were targeted by thieves, which can be said to have suffered heavy losses.


    Soon, the owner and Constable came in a hurry. After investigating the scene, Constable Cao shook his head and said, "the other party is an old hand and has no useful clues."


    In this era, the case solving technology is extremely backward. For events such as theft, unless caught on the spot, it is almost looking for a needle in a haystack.


    "What should I do? If I can''t find the thief, I''m afraid he will still be the evil party." the leader of Yongle square said with a sad face. There have been several consecutive thefts in his own jurisdiction, and his face is not good.


    Constable Cao shook his head and said, "for today''s sake, we can only strengthen patrols, close doors and windows, and put money and valuables in a safe place."


    "A safe place." people can''t help but look at each other. That''s the only way to do it now.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, even if everyone had been strictly prevented, the theft was still banned repeatedly. Even an unlucky man buried his money in the garden. Just when the thief found the traces of loose soil, he directly put all his possessions into a nest and became a poor man from a superior family overnight.


    Gradually, the legend of thieves began to spread in Chang''an city. Chang''an citizens were in danger. Confucianism magazine reported several consecutive issues to remind citizens to protect their money.


    "Chang''an thief!"


    When Merton saw the report of Confucian journal, he couldn''t help but show a mysterious smile and said, "the opportunity for the bank to turn over has come."


    The world only sees the bank''s low interest rate of 3%, but ignores that in order to build a bank, Mojia village specially invites Gongshu Hong to build a bank that even public losers can''t crack.


    As for the safest place for money in the world, I''m afraid it must be the Mojia village bank. If people deposit their money in the bank, they don''t have to worry about the safety of money and can ensure the safety of money. Isn''t it the best of both worlds.

 Chapter 852

    Amid the panic in Chang''an City, many banks in Chang''an City found that the money saving business in Mojia village had gradually improved. Many people were worried about the safety of their money, and many brave people chose to deposit their money in the Bank of Mojia village.


    However, the real turnaround is that after the branches in the East and West cities of Mojia village were completed, in order to reverse the situation of Mojia village bank, Mojia village directly transformed its stores in the East and West cities into branches and built them overtime.


    "Mojia village bank is the safest place to deposit money in the world."


    "Take as you use, with an annual interest rate of 1%, settled on a daily basis!"


    In the east city of Chang''an, the first two huge slogans of the East City branch of Mojia village bank are particularly conspicuous.


    Dongshi is the most prosperous area of Chang''an city. The flow of people is endless. Soon, the news of the opening of Dongshi Branch has spread all over Dongshi.


    "The safest place can raise interest rates."


    "It is said that the Bank of Mojia village was built by the public loser and built with the solid materials of Mojia village, even the most powerful thieves can''t get in."


    "It seems that it''s a good idea to release printing money to Mojia village."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many merchants can''t help but brighten their eyes when they see this slogan. These merchants have a lot of cash in their hands. They not only have money to pay in every day, but also need to take money to purchase goods from time to time. If they bury their money underground and take it back every ten days and a half months, it''s extremely inconvenient and unsafe.


    Especially now, the existence of Chang''an thieves makes people more frightened. In addition, usually these rich merchants are fat sheep in the eyes of some thieves. The existence of banks has solved the most worrying problems for these merchants.


    Not to mention that these merchants have money order business with Mojia village on weekdays. It''s more convenient and fast to remit money directly from their deposits. Moreover, merchants are best at careful calculation. A little interest makes a lot. That''s also white money!


    "Shopkeeper''s savings!"


    In Dongshi, a merchant walked into Dongshi Branch with a pot of copper money and handed it to Shen Hongcai.


    In order to break the dilemma of lack of money in Mojia village bank, the East and West cities can be said to be the most critical. Shen Hongcai is directly under the command of Dongshi Branch.


    "Fixed deposit or current deposit." Shen Hongcai asked skillfully.


    "Current!" the merchant said without hesitation. This is only his payment for goods these days. Will he use this money to purchase goods in a few days?


    Soon, a pot of copper money turned into a thin passbook, and then another merchant came in to save money. After a whole day, there was an endless stream of people saving money in the whole Dongshi Branch, which surprised all those who were ready to watch mojiazi''s jokes.


    "Congratulations on the breakthrough of bank deposits in Mojia village!"


    When the huge banner was hung high in front of all shops in Mojia village, all the bank managers changed their faces. It was only more than ten days that they received tens of thousands of money.


    "Isn''t it just Wanguan? It''s just a drop in the bucket."


    Although the bank managers taunted, they understood that this was not a cup of water. I''m afraid there was a bucket of water. Although 10000 yuan of money was not enough to change the current situation of money shortage in Mojia village, it could solve the urgent need.


    However, to their surprise, only five days later, the banner changed again.


    "Twenty thousand passes!"


    When Yao''s shopkeeper heard the eye of the money shop, he almost jumped out.


    "The scroll of Mohist village has been fought, and the money printed on Mohist village has reached two," he said with a bitter smile. "The whole city of Changan knows it."


    Twenty thousand Guan has been equivalent to the loss of the fake silver ticket case in Mojia village. Although these are not the money of Mojia village, they can be naturally used by Mojia village when they are deposited in the bank.


    "I underestimated the Mo family." shopkeeper Yao said with a bitter smile.


    After the launch of the money saving business in Mojia village, everyone laughed at Mojia Zi''s whimsical ideas. Now it seems that they are a frog at the bottom of the well.


    However, this is not over yet. With the popularity of deposit business in Mojia village, it has become a chain reaction. In addition to merchants, ordinary citizens also deposit their money in Mojia village bank.


    Unlike the demand deposits of merchants, most of the deposits of ordinary citizens are fixed-term deposits of one year, and the amount is usually not low. More daring, even deposit for two to three years. After all, the more years you deposit, the more interest. When it expires, the interest is not a small amount.


    "The most powerful is widow Wang in the east of the city! She deposited two thousand dollars in the Bank of Mojia village at once!"


    In the pan restaurant, shopkeeper pan chatted with diners. In recent days, deposit has become a hot topic in Chang''an City, and everyone is waiting and talking.


    "Two thousand Guan! I''m afraid that''s all the family property that old man Wang left for their orphan and widowed mother." they exclaimed.


    The so-called is that there are many right and wrong in front of widows, especially rich widows. After the death of old man Wang, he left a huge family property to widow Wang and her young son. However, the orphan and widowed mother has no ability to make a living, so she can only sell her property and eat nothing.


    Rao is so. He is still coveted by people. He has been robbed many times at home. If he hadn''t been in Chang''an city with the best public security and their mother and son were very strict on guard on weekdays, he would have been unable to keep it.


    Shopkeeper pan nodded and said, "the widow Wang is also very courageous. She saved part of her current life as her daily life, and then divided 2000 Guan into five parts, which were saved for one year, two years and five years respectively."


    "If it''s four hundred Guan, it''ll be kept for five years. When it''s due, won''t the Mojia village give widow Wang five hundred Guan in principal and interest, and one hundred Guan in interest alone?" many diners smacked their tongue.


    One hundred passes is not a small amount. I''m afraid many people can''t earn so much money a year.


    Shopkeeper pan patted his thigh and said, "that''s not true. Widow Wang said on the spot that she didn''t withdraw her money from the Mojia village bank. She only withdrew interest every year, but the interest was enough for their orphans and widows."


    "That''s ok?" the people were stunned. In this way, the widow Wang''s family didn''t have to do anything and could live a rich life in Chang''an city.


    "Isn''t that equivalent to the Mohist family coming to feed the widow Wang''s family?" an idle man said dirty words, which immediately caused a roar of laughter.


    But after laughing, everyone thought deeply. If there was less money, they could not see the benefits of the bank. Once there was more money and the deposit period was long, many people were moved by the interest of the bank.


    Of course, the reason why it is so detailed is also thanks to the wind that widow Wang took the initiative to release in order to avoid the covetous of others.


    It is said that when widow Wang deposited her money in the Bank of Mojia village, she breathed a sigh of relief: "from now on, she can finally sleep well."


    Without the coveted eyes from outsiders, the constant calculations of relatives and friends, the fear of the wind and grass at night, and the hope of a stable life in the future, the orphans and widows finally lived the most desired stable life.


    "This is win-win!"


    They all lamented that in this way, the mojiazi solved the capital crisis and the people got tangible benefits. It''s the best of both worlds. Since ancient times, only the Ziqian family has enjoyed the benefits of printing money, but now the mojiazi gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy it.


    As for the ability of Mojia Zi to repay the money, no one doubts that the reputation of Mojia village is the richest in the world and Mojia Zi''s ability to turn stone into gold. Without saying, taking the 300000 yuan in the imperial palace is enough to let the citizens down their guard. This is also the reason why Mojia Dun is determined not to use the 300000 yuan. No matter how good the reputation of Mojia and the royal family is, it is just empty teeth, It''s not worth the 300000 yuan.


    "40000 passes!"


    "50000 passes!"


    With the change of banners one by one, the number of deposits in Mojia village has increased significantly. Everyone knows that if it goes on like this, it will be sooner or later for Mojia village to solve the cash crisis.


    "The second owner, the event is bad. The Bank of Mojia village has borrowed 50000 yuan of Indian money from the people. Mojia Zi is about to get out of trouble. Some aristocratic families and rich families are ready to waver and give up besieging Mojia Zi." Cao Guangqi reported in a hurry to the secret Manor outside Chang''an.


    "Thousands of doors are bad for me!" the second owner of Zi Qian''s family angrily rushed to heaven.


    Who could have thought that his infallible plan had been destroyed by a thousand people. It is true that if there was no accident, the people would not be willing to put their money into the hands of others.


    He only saw the people''s desire to possess money, but did not see the people''s determination to guard wealth. When money was at risk of loss, the bank built by Mojia village at great expense played a decisive role.


    It can not only ensure the safety of their money, but also the temptation of interest. People naturally know how to choose. In particular, the rumor that widow Wang eats interest in Chang''an city adds fuel to the fire for the money saving business of Mojia village.


    Cao Guangqi is also very helpless. It is reasonable to say that Qianmen is also a heresy. He should have been in the same breath with Ziqian family, but he inadvertently helped Mozi.


    "Send a message to those aristocratic families and make them wait." the second owner of Ziqian family took a deep breath.


    "But we can influence the aristocratic family, but we can''t control the people in the world." Cao Guangqi frowned. These people keep saving money in Mojia village. Sooner or later, Mojia village will get out of trouble.


    The second owner of Ziqian''s family still didn''t die: "these people are just frightened by the Chang''an thief. After the Chang''an thief is captured, I don''t believe anyone will save money."


    "Is it possible that the second owner knows the clue of the Chang''an thief when he catches the Chang''an thief?" Cao Guangqi said incredulously.


    The second owner of Ziqian family proudly said: "When it comes to the secret power, Ziqian''s family is very mysterious to ordinary people. For Chang''an County Yamen, it can''t be confirmed if they can''t catch it on the spot. However, for Ziqian''s family, it''s only a matter of time to find out the Chang''an thief. Even if they can''t find it, Ziqian''s family can make one. In short, he can''t continue to help Mojia."


    Cao Guangqi immediately felt extremely absurd. Ziqian family and Qianmen belong to different sects. They should have joined forces to guard against the government. As a result, Qianmen people inadvertently helped the Mohist family and hurt Ziqian family. Now Ziqian family helps the imperial court to catch Qianmen people.


    "Yes! The second owner!" Cao Guangqi nodded without hesitation. He also hated the Chang''an thief who was pitying the son Qian''s family.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Please come back! I will certainly bring this Chang''an thief to justice." in Chang''an County Yamen, Su Luosheng solemnly promised the victim who came to cry.


    "Adults have to decide for us. That''s all the wealth of villains!"


    "My family can''t even open the pot now. This Chang''an thief who killed thousands of knives."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One by one, the victims begged to suluosheng that the money was their lifeblood and everyone felt heartache.


    Su Luosheng comforted them again and again, and then sent them away. He had a terrible headache. During this period of time, Chang''an city was not peaceful. First, in addition to the fake silver ticket case that shocked the government and the public, the Mexican family took the initiative to take responsibility, made full compensation, and found the dens of Yuanxiang bank. Then the case was closed.


    Who knows, one wave after another, there was another Chang''an thief who frightened the people. I''m afraid even he can''t explain to the court if he doesn''t catch him.


    "Where is Constable Cao?" Su Luosheng suddenly shouted at the thought.


    Cao Zhuo bowed helplessly and said, "it''s my humble duty."


    "How''s the investigation of Chang''an thief?" suluosheng shouted.


    Constable Cao smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Hui, I have investigated thousands of the people in Chang''an City, but there is no clue. It should be an alien crime."


    "Whether you are a local thief or a foreign thief, I will give you another ten days. If you can''t solve the case again, I will punish you together." Su Luosheng said sternly.


    "Ten days?" Constable Cao couldn''t help but get dark. In Chang''an City, he wanted to find a bandit in Chang''an City for ten days, which was no less than looking for a needle in a haystack. However, Su Luosheng''s order made him unable to refuse, so he had to bow down and take orders


    "Humble command."


    Constable Cao returned home worried and found a bandit in ten days. It was simply an impossible task.


    Suddenly there was a loud noise, which immediately startled Constable Cao.


    "Who is it?" when Cao catches the head, he hears the sound and holds the official knife in his hand. When he is in the Constable of Chang''an County Yamen, he will inevitably offend people. He has a strong sense of prevention at ordinary times, and is basically inseparable from the knife.


    Constable Cao explored confidently and carefully, but found that there was no one, only a hole in the paste paper of the window, and a stone appeared in his room with a secret letter.


    Constable Cao opened the secret letter and saw the content in his heart. He was overjoyed. He immediately whipped up his horse and rushed to Chang''an County Yamen.


    "Extra, extra! The Changan thief has been arrested!"


    At dawn the next day, an exciting news immediately spread all over Chang''an city. The Chang''an robber who frightened the whole Chang''an city was finally arrested.


    "Finally caught!" many people breathed a sigh of relief.


    "Damn thief, you pay me back!" after hearing the news, the merchant surnamed Zhou couldn''t wait to run to Chang''an County Government.


    Other victims have gathered in Chang''an County Government to seek justice for themselves and recover the stolen money.


    "Constable Cao, you did a good job! I will certainly ask the imperial court for your merit."


    Su Luosheng, the magistrate of Chang''an County, looked at the dusty Constable Cao with satisfaction. He originally wanted to give Constable Cao ten days. Unexpectedly, Constable Cao captured the thief overnight and captured both people and stolen goods. There was a mountain of hard evidence.


    Cao''s face was strange when he was arrested. It was not his credit. The secret letter last night revealed the details of the Chang''an thief in detail, which made him so easy to catch the thief.


    "This is a humble duty." Constable Cao is not polite and deserves the credit.


    Su Luosheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "come on, show the thief in the street to calm the hearts of the people."


    The people of Chang''an are terrified, and the best way to appease the people is to let the people see the capture of Chang''an thieves with their own eyes.


    "What about the victims? They are still waiting outside the county government office?" Constable Cao frowned.


    "Return the accounts to the victims one by one." Su Luosheng waved his hand. He has been bothered by these people recently. Naturally, he doesn''t want to entangle too much on this matter. What really interests him is the credit for catching the Changan thief.

 Chapter 853

    "Now, the people of Chang''an should be at ease!" the second owner of the Zi Qian family looked at the prison car pulling the Chang''an robber and left. Listening to the cheers of the people, he couldn''t help smiling.


    Who could have thought that the notorious Ziqian family was the hero who captured the Changan thieves, which made the second owner of Ziqian family, who always regarded the people as mud legs, feel strange.


    "The master is wise! This time the people''s money will not be stolen, and they will never trust Mojia Zi again. Maybe they will take out the money again?" behind the second master of Ziqian family, shopkeeper Yao said with a compliment on his face,


    Merton guessed well. Indeed, there was a dark line of Ziqian family in Chang''an city. Shopkeeper Yao was one of them. Although Cao Guangqi changed his face, he was not suitable to enter Chang''an city. Shopkeeper Yao was the spokesman of Ziqian family in Chang''an city.


    The second owner of Ziqian family can''t help showing a trace of pride. Based on Ziqian family''s understanding of human nature, everyone is very possessive of their own money, and others are guilty at a glance, not to mention handing over their own money to others.


    At the beginning, many people tossed and turned all night after depositing their money in the bank. They took the money again a few days later. He believes this phenomenon will occur again.


    "The owner of the shopkeeper is not good enough. After stealing the money, he turned around and deposited in the Bank of Mohist village." suddenly, an eye liner rushed to report.


    "How is that possible?"


    Shopkeeper Yao almost didn''t jump up. Zi Qian''s family worked hard to find the Chang''an robber, calming everyone''s fear. These people turned and turned to the Mohist school.


    "I made wedding clothes for the Mo family."


    The second owner of the son Qian family suddenly turned red. He never thought that his proud understanding of human nature had completely failed. He only saw people''s possession of money, but did not predict how complex the stolen people''s mind of recovering money was.


    Only they can understand the importance of safety. Only by ensuring the absolute safety of their money can they be qualified to talk about their possession of money.


    These thieves take the initiative to deposit their recovered money in the bank, which is the best living advertisement. Besides, even if the Chang''an thief is caught, who can guarantee that there will be no next Chang''an thief.


    Besides, even if there are no such rampant thieves, there are many petty thieves in Chang''an city. It can be said that there are many cases of theft every year.


    In this mentality, more and more people choose to give money to the MOH family.


    "80000 passes!"


    "One hundred thousand passes!"


    Soon, the deposit of Mojia village bank has exceeded 100000, reaching the original goal of borrowing money. More importantly, the interest is half less than before.


    The shopkeepers of all the banks were disheartened and their remorseful intestines were green. At the beginning, the Mojia village specially asked them to come to borrow the printing money. They disliked the low interest rate and wanted to throw stones at the Mojia village. They refused without hesitation. Now they just ask the Mojia village to borrow the printing money again. I''m afraid they don''t have a chance.


    "How much money have you lost for nothing!"


    The shopkeepers of the bank regretted that according to the previous rules set by the Mohist school, they could borrow indian money for up to five years at an annual interest rate of one cent. After five years, it would be 50000 yuan of interest, which was the bank''s profit for several years. It was more painful than cutting meat for Ziqian family who valued money more than life.


    Now that Mojia village has raised 100000 yuan of cash, the crisis of lack of money has been lifted, the alliance between aristocratic families and rich families in Chang''an City has naturally broken down, and the silver ticket business in Mojia village has also been booming. Everyone knows that Mojia Zi has won this game.


    "Mohist is worthy of Mohist!"


    In the pan restaurant, the nephew of the pan family simply turned into a fan of the Mohist family, spitting wildly to review the wonderful process of the printing money war between the Mohist family and the Ziqian family to a group of diners.


    "That''s not true. In recent days, the people of Chang''an are in a hurry to send money to the Mo family, lest the Mo family receive enough money." a diner smacked his tongue.


    Everyone nodded. Merton announced that he would receive 100000 yuan of printing money. In a few days, he arrived at 80000 yuan, and there was not much left. If he went late, he would not be able to save. Under this mentality, the deposit received by Mojia village in the last few days was as high as 10000 yuan a day, which made everyone smack at the wealth of the people in Chang''an city.


    "Fortunately, I caught up with you and saved it for five years. Later, it came out that I was also the one who gave money to the Mohists. That was also a good story," boasted an old landlord.


    "Come on! If the Mojia Zi hadn''t sent it to the imperial palace to store 300000 yuan, you would have thrown your money on the ground. The Mojia Zi didn''t even look at it. You were in a hurry to eat interest." shopkeeper pan laughed and scolded.


    The landlord Lao Cai couldn''t help grinning. The five-year interest listed by Mojia village really moved him. Coupled with the black and white words and the official seal of Mojia village, he was relieved. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with eating interest.


    "Do you think the MOH family had planned to this day long ago, or would they have asked the public loser to build such a solid silver treasury?" a diner guessed.


    "If you can guess the Mohist''s mind, you can''t take such a big advantage if the Mohist is not short of money. Let the Mohist help you make money?" Pan''s nephew defended the Mohist.


    Many diners suddenly showed a proud smile. All along, the ability of mojiazi to turn stone into gold has been well known. However, the only beneficiary is mojiacun. Now they put their money in the bank for interest. Isn''t that tantamount to letting mojiazi make money for them.


    Many people can''t help regretting that the Mexican family has collected enough 100000 yuan of silver, and I''m afraid they won''t accept it again.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Excuse me, do you still accept printing money here?"


    A timid voice came from the door of the head office of Mojia village bank.


    Shen Hongcai looked intently and saw a middle-aged woman in plain clothes asking.


    Shen Hongcai didn''t dare to neglect and hurried to meet him. These days, he met many Chang''an citizens who were shabby and had large deposits.


    "Madam, we''re saving money, not printing money!" Shen Hongcai corrected. He has corrected this mistake many times. Saving is much better than receiving printing money, but it''s a pity that it''s useless. The people in Chang''an seem to recognize the saying of releasing printing money to mojiazi.


    "Whatever the name is? Just give interest." the middle-aged woman slapped the silver ingot with the smell of earth in front of Shen Hongcai. It was obvious that she had just dug it out of the earth.


    After a while, the middle-aged woman looked at the agreed interest on the deposit certificate and walked out of the Mojia village bank with satisfaction.


    There are not many examples like this. After learning that mojiazi continued to receive printing money, many citizens who regretted not saving money as soon as possible took out their savings one after another, hoping to catch a ride with mojiazi and make a little money.


    "Congratulations on the bank deposit of Mojia village breaking 150000 yuan!"


    "150000 yuan!"


    People couldn''t help but smack their tongue. However, this was not the limit. After half a month, the banner of Mojia village bank changed again.


    "200000 yuan!"


    Seeing the amount just changed by the Bank of Mojia village, people were stunned. What is the most difficult in the world? Borrowing money is the second. I''m afraid nothing dares to be the second.


    This universally recognized problem was regarded as nothing by the Mohist family. In a short time, he borrowed 200000 yuan of printing money.


    "You say how Mojia village borrows so much and how much more interest should be paid every year." an idle man smacked his tongue.


    "What is this? The interest was originally paid by the Mohist family to the Ziqian family, but now it''s just for us to take advantage." a merchant snorted coldly.


    According to the discussion between Mozi and Ziqian, the interest of borrowing 100000 Guan is exactly the same as the interest paid by borrowing 200000 Guan from the people. Naturally, the people in Chang''an don''t have to worry about the repayment ability of Mozi.


    Only a group of banks were full of bitterness. The Mohist family borrowed twice as much money but paid the same interest. The Mohist family and the people won a win-win situation, but the only son Qian family was forced.


    However, Ziqian''s family was still behind unexpectedly. Before long, the banner of Mojia village was changed once.


    "Congratulations on the bank deposit of Mojia village breaking through 300000 yuan."


    "Three hundred thousand!"


    Suddenly, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar. This was the money handed over by the Mohist son to the Treasury in the imperial palace. Doesn''t that mean that the Mohist village is full of blood and resurrected again.

 Chapter 854

    "300000 yuan!"


    Not only the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar, but even Li Shimin was stunned when he got the news.


    Pound respectfully said, "back to your majesty, the Mojia village has put up banners. I think it can''t be wrong."


    "This boy!" Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing bitterly. At the beginning, he didn''t believe that Merton would give in so easily, but he didn''t expect that he would win so much fun. Not only did he easily raise 100000 Guan''s money, but he raised 300000 Guan at once, which was the amount he handed over to the internal Treasury!


    "Doesn''t this mean that the Mohists didn''t spend any money?" Li Shimin suddenly woke up.


    Mohist Zi sent 300000 Guan to the Imperial Palace Library, and he changed hands and received 300000 Guan of printing money, which means that Mohist actually got a bank for nothing.


    Although the Mojia village solved the capital crisis, the people got the interest of printing money, and there were 300000 more cash in the royal treasury, Li Shimin always felt that he seemed to have been cheated and fooled by Mojia Zi.


    Even Shen Hongcai, who has so much money, felt extremely hot. He didn''t handle so much money, but the original 300000 yuan was the money of Mojia village. He didn''t have to pay a penny of interest and put it in the bank.


    But now these 300000 Guan are not the money of Mojia village, but the money of the people all over the world. According to the lowest annual interest rate of 3%, they have to pay 9000 Guan a year. In addition, many people deposit for five years, and the interest alone is tens of thousands of Guan every year.


    "Interest on Wanguan!" Shen Hongcai immediately felt great pressure. There were not many people with Wanguan property in Chang''an city. However, the interest paid by the Bank of Mojia village every year was like building a Wanguan home in Chang''an city. What worried him more was that the people who came to Mojia village to deposit in the bank did not decrease, and the bank would have to pay more interest.


    However, when he received 100000 yuan, he had asked Merton whether to stop receiving printing money, but the reply continued.


    When receiving 200000 passes and 300000 passes, Merton''s reply continued.


    "Merton, you can''t accept any more money." Shen Hongcai directly came to the door and directly suggested to Merton.


    Morton looked at Shen Hongcai puzzled and said, "why, is it that the bank''s Bank is full?"


    Shen Hongcai snorted coldly, "of course not. The scale of the bank built by the public loser is very large, even if half of the space used to store 300000 yuan of cash silver is less than half."


    Merton waved his hand and said, "that''s it. The bank is the place to deposit silver. How can it be a decoration when the silver Treasury is so large."


    Shen Hongcai said angrily and with a smile, "this 300000 Guan is money printed, and the lowest interest rate is 3%, but the interest that needs to be paid every year has been Wanguan. In the long run, it will bring down Mojia village."


    There are thousands of extra expenses every year. Even the imperial court may be noisy, let alone that Mojia village is just a village.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the interest of Wanguan every year is nothing. The Mohist village is enough to bear it. Moreover, since the Mohists borrow money from the people, if they borrow it, they will not borrow it again. I''m afraid it won''t be so easy to borrow it again next time."


    The idea of Mohism is universal love. Since we want to benefit the people, we must benefit everyone. Some people benefit and others are greedy. I''m afraid it will attract criticism, which is not conducive to the reputation of Mohism, let alone the purpose of Mohism.


    Shen Hongcai said earnestly: "up to now, Mojia village has received nearly 400000 yuan of stamp money. I''m afraid it will cause panic and didn''t publicize it. If so much money is gathered in the bank, and even the bank that exceeds the Treasury one day, aren''t you afraid of being coveted by the world? You know, if people talk and waste money, you can keep the bank for a while, I''m afraid you can''t keep it for a lifetime?"


    What Shen Hongcai said is very direct. The so-called wealth and wealth move people''s hearts. Naturally, the bank treasury of Mojia village bank can prevent thieves, but how can it stop the imperial court? Such huge wealth is controlled by the bank. Shen Hongcai feels like sitting in the crater.


    Such a large amount of money is in front of him. Unless he is a saint, who can withstand the temptation, he is afraid that the Mojia village bank will one day be slaughtered as a fat sheep.


    Merton said with a sneer, "do you think the Mojia village can protect itself without receiving money? The bank is a place to manage money and can never escape the covet of outsiders."


    Shen Hongcai could not help but be silent. He had just served as the bank''s top manager, and had received countless solicitations and compliments, which was much more than his previous work as a doctoral supervisor.


    "Today''s Mojia village bank is like a child holding a gold brick and walking in the downtown. The master thinks how to protect the bank." Merton asked solemnly.


    Shen Hongcai''s face suddenly dropped a lot of sweat, and a trace of panic appeared on his face. After Merton''s words, he immediately realized what a cusp the bank was in.


    However, the bank is the future of mathematics. He can''t give up anyway. Suddenly, he looked at Merton and said, "since you have seen this result, there must be a way?"


    Merton couldn''t help laughing proudly: "when a child walks in the downtown with a gold brick, he will naturally be coveted by countless people. However, if a child holds the gold brick of the people in the downtown, the people in the downtown will not be a threat, but will be the escort of the children. This is the best way."


    Shen Hongcai was shocked, his eyes flashed, and his heart suddenly understood Merton''s layout.


    "So, we can''t stop our deposit business," Shen Hongcai pointed out.


    Merton said with a confident smile: "when the people of Chang''an City deposit their money in the bank, they will receive the protection of the people of the whole city. If anyone dares to move the bank, they should consider the consequences of angering the people of the whole city."


    Shen Hongcai suddenly became cheerful, and his original worries were immediately cleared away. Now he doesn''t dislike having too many deposits, but wants more and more people to deposit their money into the Mojia village bank.


    "But the more printed money the bank receives, the more interest the bank will pay. I''m afraid even Mojia village can''t bear it!" Shen Hongcai frowned.


    The interest of 10000 Guan is nothing to Mojia village, but what about the interest of 20000 Guan, 30000 Guan or even higher?


    Merton waved his hand carelessly. Since ancient times, as long as banks and banks don''t die, they haven''t heard of losing money.


    "How can this problem defeat the master, but how about you and I write the answers in the palm of my hand and announce them together?" Merton said with great play.


    Shen Hongcai changed his hesitation, laughed and wrote a few words in the palm of his hand.


    Merton did the same. They opened it together, ignored it, and burst into laughter. One of their palms wrote print money and the other wrote loan.

 Chapter 855

    "Congratulations on the bank deposit of Mojia village breaking through 500000 yuan!"


    When the Mojia village bank hung a huge banner, the whole Chang''an city was stunned.


    At this moment, people found that the eyes of Mohist school were so vicious that the wealth of a people would not be in the eyes of the world, and the wealth of the people in Chang''an City would be an astronomical figure. Moreover, this 500000 yuan is far from the extreme limit of Chang''an citizens.


    "It''s already 500000 yuan, and the Mohists are still collecting money!" in Chang''an City, almost everyone is talking about it. Ordinary people have limited money. Where have you heard of such a huge wealth, and the Mohists got it in a short time? It''s a miracle.


    "God, how much more interest does it need to pay every year!" they smacked.


    "The MOH family is afraid of lack of money! Prepare more money for standby." an idle man guessed.


    "Nonsense, no one in the world is short of money. For example, shopkeeper fan of fan''s firm in Dongshi, who is the richest businessman in Chang''an City, has heard that he has lost a lot recently and is borrowing money everywhere." a merchant sneered.


    "Shopkeeper fan has been operating in Chang''an City for so many years and should have many contacts!" the idle man smacked his tongue. Shopkeeper fan has a great business and is very famous. People are very familiar with him.


    "As the saying goes, it''s easier to add flowers to the icing on the cake than to send charcoal in the snow. Besides, the money needed by shopkeeper fan is not ten or eight. How can it be so easy to raise enough. It''s said that shopkeeper fan''s hair is white these days. I''m afraid shopkeeper fan has to borrow money." the merchant sighed.


    "Borrow money from India!" the idle man exclaimed, "how many people in the world can get back from borrowing money from India, unless he can borrow money at an annual interest rate of 3% like Mohist Zi."


    "The annual interest rate is 3%?" the merchant snorted coldly, "how is that possible? Let alone the annual interest rate is 3%? Even if the annual interest rate is 6%, the Qian family is not willing to lend it to the Mo family, let alone him."


    Everyone was silent. When people were trapped, a penny forced the hero down. Moreover, shopkeeper fan didn''t need a few money.


    "Not everyone is a Mohist!" everyone sighed.


    Mojia Zi can lead Mojia village out of the dilemma with his own wisdom. I''m afraid others don''t have such a good life.


    East city Fanfu.


    Gray haired shopkeeper fan walked into the courtyard dejectedly. It''s hard to imagine that this is the famous shopkeeper fan of Dongshi in Chang''an city.


    "Dad, how''s it going? Did Uncle Qi promise to lend us money?" the eldest son of the fan family hurried forward. He said uncle Qi was a good friend of shopkeeper fan for many years and a famous rich businessman in Chang''an city.


    Shopkeeper fan shook his head and said, "although your uncle Qi has some surplus money, it has just been deposited into the Mojia village bank. At present, there is no surplus capital in his hand!"


    The eldest son of the fan family said anxiously, "isn''t it three percent interest? My fan family comes out, no! My fan family gives him double interest."


    Shopkeeper fan scolded, "fool, this is just an excuse. Now my fan family is dying. Even if you promise more interest, others dare not lend us money."


    Fan''s parents immediately stayed there, blushing and speechless.


    "What should we do now?" the eldest son of the fan family was at a loss.


    Shopkeeper fan sighed: "now, I''m afraid we have to sell fan''s property and raise a sum of money for the time being."


    Although he wanted to sell the fan family''s industry, he also knew how such a large industry could be sold in a short time. Besides, everyone knew that the fan family was in urgent need of money, so he didn''t try his best to keep the price down.


    "Brother fan doesn''t need to be like this. The fan family''s industry is the foundation of the fan family. If you sell it, the fan family''s century old business will be destroyed!" suddenly, with a warm voice, the figure of shopkeeper Yao appeared at the door of the fan family.


    "Shopkeeper Yao!" fan''s parents immediately faced the enemy. Did he know that he was a notorious bank shopkeeper who specialized in printing money for a living.


    "Why not welcome!" shopkeeper Yao said with a smile.


    "I don''t borrow money from the fan family." the eldest son of the fan family said fiercely. After the popularity of ink magazines and the popularity of money games, almost everyone knows the harm of money printing and naturally avoids it like snakes and scorpions.


    Shopkeeper Yao''s face stiffened when he saw this. He couldn''t help scolding the Mo family for their bad deeds. But he said genially: "this time, the Zi Qian family came in good faith, and the interest rate is extremely low."


    Shopkeeper fan moved in his heart and stopped his impulsive son. He arched his hands and said, "please speak clearly, brother Yao."


    "Printing money, the monthly interest rate is one point." shopkeeper Yao broke out an interest, which is much lower than before.


    "It''s not high. At the beginning, the highest interest rate of Mohist Zi''s borrowing money was only one point a year." the eldest son of the fan family couldn''t help but say.


    Shopkeeper Yao snorted coldly, "you think you are the son of the Mo family. One point per month is the lowest interest in the history of the Zi Qian family. Shopkeeper fan doesn''t know!"


    Shopkeeper fan nodded. The monthly interest rate of one point is indeed the lowest interest rate on the market, but Rao is so, he can''t afford it!


    "The monthly interest rate is also too high. If shopkeeper Yao is sincere, I''m equivalent to imitating the Mexican family, and I''ll calculate the annual interest rate." shopkeeper fan gritted his teeth.


    With a sigh, shopkeeper Yao knew that the worst had happened. Everyone began to follow the example of Mojia village, refused to print money and was ready to settle with annual interest.


    "Impossible? The Qian family will never accept the annual interest rate, neither the Mohist family nor the fan family." shopkeeper Yao categorically refused.


    Printing money is the foundation of Ziqian family. If you lose the interest rate of printing money, Ziqian family may have existed in name only.


    "Shopkeeper Yao, please come back!"


    Shopkeeper fan shook his head and refused. Naturally, he also knew the harm of printing money. How dare he borrow such high printing money.


    Shopkeeper Yao snorted coldly, "I''m going to come to the door in person today. When shopkeeper fan runs out of money, I''m afraid it''s not the price."


    Shopkeeper Yao said this and left. Since he missed the interest of mojiazi''s money, he naturally wanted to find another fat sheep to make up for the loss, and the fan family was their prey. Not only that, this time, the crisis of the fan family and the difficulty of borrowing money also had the strength of the son Qian family.


    In his opinion, the fan family is already fish on the chopping board, and it will be cut by the Qian family sooner or later.


    As soon as shopkeeper Yao left, the whole fan family was dead silent. They just refused very simply, but they knew that they had no second way to go unless they abandoned their family business.


    They had neither the courage of Xu Jie to break their wrists nor the wisdom of Mohist Zi, so they could only fall into the trap of Zi Qian''s family step by step.


    "Brother fan, long time no see!"


    Suddenly a familiar and strange voice sounded, and someone came to the door twice in a short time.


    "Are you?" the eldest son of the fan family saw that he was familiar with each other. He seemed to have met somewhere, but he couldn''t remember.


    "It''s shopkeeper Xu. Did you come to see my joke?" shopkeeper fan changed his face when he saw the visitor.


    The eldest son of the fan family suddenly realized that this person was Xu Jie. He was a competitor with fan''s firm in those years. However, since Xu''s firm went bankrupt, he only heard that Xu Jie was solicited by the Mo family and never met again.


    Xu Jie said without hesitation: "brother fan, I''m going to spend a gentleman''s belly with a villain''s heart. I heard that the fan family is in trouble. I''m here to see if there''s anything I can help. I didn''t expect brother Fang to see me like this."


    "Help? Do you believe me? It''s true that I was really an opponent with you. When your Xu firm was in trouble, I didn''t help, but I didn''t fall into the well." shopkeeper Fan said angrily.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "the competition between you and me was a struggle between gentlemen. Naturally, the decline of Xu''s firm was not the fault of manager fan. I just don''t want fan''s firm to follow in the footsteps of Xu''s firm today."


    Shopkeeper Fan said sadly, "it''s late. I''m afraid it''s necessary to save the fan family business. I know you''re doing well in taking refuge in Mohist school, but how can you take out so much money."


    Xu Jie said with a smile, "Xu naturally doesn''t have so much money, but there is a place in Chang''an city that is recognized by the world as having a lot of money, not to mention 5000 Guan and 50000 Guan."


    "Mojia village bank!" said the head of the fan family and his son. Now I''m afraid the richest in Chang''an city is the Mojia village bank, which has 500000 yuan of cash and can issue millions of yuan of silver notes. I''m afraid even the National Treasury can''t say there is so much cash. It can be said to be a rich country.


    "Mohou is not close, how can he lend money to fan!" shopkeeper fan didn''t believe it.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "of course it''s impossible. The Mohists have to pay the people three percent interest to raise the money. Do you want the fan family to take away empty teeth?"


    The eyes of the fan family and his son were suddenly dim. He knew that there was no free lunch in the world. Xu Jie obviously meant that the Mojia village bank also charged interest.


    "I didn''t expect that the noble Mohist family would also learn from the notorious Ziqian family to release the printing money. My fan family would not borrow the printing money even if I lost all my money." the eldest son of the fan family gnashed his teeth and said that all the young generation in Chang''an regarded the Mohist family as their idols and heard that their idols also released the printing money. It is conceivable that the eldest son of the fan family was disappointed and angry.


    "You''re not going to listen to the interest rate, so you have to refuse." Xu Jie smiled and tried to walk down the aisle


    "Fan is all ears!" shopkeeper fan felt a move in his heart. Since the Mohist school was also preparing to put money in print, he happened to be competing with the two families of the money family. He might take the opportunity to press down the interest. This may be the turning point of fan''s business.


    "The annual interest rate is 6 per cent!" Xu Jie gestured a number to shopkeeper fan.


    "What?" the fans couldn''t believe their ears and eyes.


    "The annual interest rate is 6% for one year, 7% for two years,...... one point for five years. Didn''t my boss say it publicly?" Xu Jie laughed.


    "That''s mohou''s offer to Ziqian''s family, and we......" shopkeeper fan couldn''t believe it. This is the merchant''s dream interest rate. The MOH family is so powerful that he was refused to borrow money from Ziqian''s family at this interest rate, but who would have thought that one day he would encounter such a good thing.


    "Since mohou offered the interest to Ziqian''s family, it shows that mohou thinks the interest is the most appropriate. Whoever borrows the money should have the interest, even if the Mohists put the money themselves." Xu Jie solemnly said.


    "Mohou Gaoyi!" shopkeeper Fan said excitedly. The interest of 6% a year is a great gospel compared with the printed money of Ziqian family.


    "Of course, if you want to borrow money, there is another condition," Xu Jie said.


    "Mortgage!" shopkeeper Fan said wisely. At the beginning, mojiazi offered such a low interest, which was to take the solution of Qianchou distillery and glass secret skills as collateral. He must be no exception.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "yes, you must have equivalent real estate as collateral for how much money you want to borrow."


    Shopkeeper fan nodded almost without hesitation and said, "it should be so. Fan wants to mortgage all fan''s house and fan''s firm. This value should be enough."


    Fan''s firm has many industries in Chang''an City, most of which are high-quality industries, especially fan''s house is a famous luxury house in Chang''an City, which is valuable.


    "If the fan family is also mortgaged, where shall we live?" the eldest son of the fan family exclaimed, this is their Fan family''s ancestral house! A family business that has been fought down for several generations.


    "Although you are mortgaged, you can still live in it. As long as you repay on time, no one can take away your house. However, we have said that once you don''t pay, these collateral will be auctioned by Mojia village to repay your principal and interest." Xu Jie said.


    "That''s natural, but the amount fan wants to borrow is not 5000 Guan, but 8000 Guan!" shopkeeper fan gritted his teeth.


    Such a low interest rate is a rare event for shopkeeper fan for thousands of years. Naturally, we should seize the opportunity and do our best.


    Xu Jie shook his head and said, "how much money manager fan can borrow, not to mention that Xu can decide. You need to go to the Mojia village bank in person with the house deed and land deed and ask manager Shen to verify it."


    "You should be so!" shopkeeper fan nodded solemnly.


    "Then Xu said goodbye." seeing that the task had been completed, Xu Jie got up and said goodbye.


    Shopkeeper fan hurriedly sent them off in person, all the way outside the gate, solemnly saluted Xu Jie and said, "please tell Mo Hou that the fan family will always remember Mo Hou''s great kindness."


    Xu Jie smiled and said, "shopkeeper fan is polite. It''s just a business. Each takes what he needs and does not involve any kindness."


    "I understand!" shopkeeper fan respectfully said. Naturally, I don''t know what he thought in his heart.


    The next day, when shopkeeper fan walked into Mojia village bank with a thick stack of house deeds, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation again.


    The news of the release of printing money by Mohist school was like a thunderclap in Chang''an city.


    "Mojia Zi puts the money in print!" ordinary people are stunned. The reputation of putting the money in print is not good. Who would have thought that a well-known Mojia Zi should choose such a notorious business.

 Chapter 856

    "Who did the Mohists give the money to?" some people who didn''t know it asked in amazement.


    "Who else can it be? Who is the most short of money in Chang''an city now." a merchant nudong said with his chin.


    "East City fan''s firm!" they suddenly realized.


    In the past, the most money deficient person in Chang''an city was mojiazi. Now, after borrowing a large amount of money from the people, mojiazi has become the richest person in Chang''an city. He has not been short of money for a long time, while shopkeeper fan of fan''s firm successfully replaced mojiazi and became the most money deficient person in Chang''an city.


    "No! The Mohist family has such a good reputation. How can the Mohist family put money in print?" an idle man questioned. Printing money is not a good reputation. Whenever printing money cannot be collected, it will often be accompanied by blood and violence. Unless the notorious Ziqian family, I''m afraid there are not 100 willing to set foot in it.


    "Mojiazi borrowed fifty thousand dollars from the world, and the annual interest is nearly twenty thousand dollars. If you don''t put the money, you can still lose money. Besides, mojiazi can''t use so much money?" the merchant thought. Mojiazi''s original plan was to borrow one hundred thousand dollars. Unexpectedly, he borrowed five hundred thousand dollars at once.


    "I said that the MOH family had already borrowed 500000 yuan of printing money. Why did they continue to collect it? They originally said they wanted to get involved in the printing money business." an idle man suddenly said.


    The merchant shook his head and said, "I see that the Mohists didn''t set foot in the Zi Qian business all for money. When the Mohists were in danger, the Zi Qian family didn''t fall into the well. How can the Mohists be reconciled."


    "The Mohist family is really a catfish. At the beginning, the Ziqian family wanted to pit the Mohist family with Indian money, but now they are counterattacked by the Mohist family. From then on, the Ziqian family is no longer the only one in Chang''an city." it''s not too much for the idle man to watch the excitement.


    A Confucian scholar smelled the speech and said with disgust: "every printed money is not without blood. As long as it is involved in printed money, it will become a raccoon."


    "It''s impossible. Mozi is by no means that kind of person," the merchant retorted.


    The Confucian sneered: "you have been hoodwinked by the Mohist school. Which one of the people who put the money is a good thing? I thought that the Mohist school had the concept of universal love and non aggression. Now it seems that it is just a hypocrite."


    People want to refute, but they can''t speak. After all, people''s understanding of Indian money makes them really irrefutable.


    Suddenly there was a noise. I only heard a shout from the crowd: "shopkeeper fan is coming out!"


    At the door of the bank headquarters, people immediately looked at the door of the bank headquarters and saw shopkeeper fan and Shen Hongcai come out together.


    "Thank you!" shopkeeper fan saluted Shen Hongcai with a grateful face.


    Shen Hongcai replied, "shopkeeper fan doesn''t need to do this. It''s just that fan''s firm and Mojia village bank take what they need."


    Shopkeeper fan thanked again and again, and then turned to leave.


    "Shopkeeper fan, please stay. I wonder if I can accept the interview of Confucian magazine?" suddenly, in the crowd, Ma, chief editor of Confucian magazine, came out in a loud voice.


    Everyone was in an uproar. Unexpectedly, the chief editor of the Confucian Journal came.


    Shopkeeper fan couldn''t help but say a word when he heard what he said. Before, fan''s firm cooperated with Confucian journals to advertise. Naturally, he recognized chief editor fan. At present, he hesitated and turned to look at Shen Hongcai behind him. He saw Shen Hongcai nodding slowly. Then he solemnly said, "chief editor Ma, please, fan must know everything and say everything.".


    According to his agreement with Mojia village bank, all loans should be made public, and he should also take this opportunity to dispel the rumor that fan''s firm is short of money.


    "I don''t know how much money shopkeeper fan borrowed this time!" editor in chief Ma went straight to the theme, and everyone suddenly calmed down, which is the most concerned problem.


    When shopkeeper fan heard the speech, he couldn''t help smiling. He raised the draft in his hand and said, "seven thousand five hundred!"


    "Wow! So many."


    The crowd could not help but burst into an uproar. This was not a small number. The fan family was originally just a Wanguan family. He borrowed 7500 pieces of money at once. Can he pay it back?


    "I don''t know how long shopkeeper fan borrowed it and what the interest is." editor in chief Ma was immediately excited and asked.


    "I borrowed it for one year, and the interest is six percent." shopkeeper fan replied readily.


    "Six percent interest."


    At this moment, everyone was stunned and whispered: "I heard that Ziqian''s offer to shopkeeper fan was one point of interest. I think it was mojiazi who took the initiative to reduce the price to six percent interest in order to compete.


    But when they counted, they suddenly found that even six percent interest money was a huge figure. Even the fan family''s Wanguan family might not be enough!


    Editor in chief Ma immediately shouted, "shopkeeper fan, you are also an elder in the business community. You dare to borrow the six percent printing money. Do you know how much interest you have to pay?"


    Under the rebuke of editor in chief Ma Yizheng''s words, shopkeeper fan nodded slowly and said, "of course, fan knows that according to the 6% interest, a total of 450 passes, and the due principal is 7950 passes."


    "Four hundred and fifty!"


    When everyone heard the number of interest, they almost fried the pot. They looked at shopkeeper fan as if they were fools. Should shopkeeper fan be old and confused and even miscalculate.


    "Wait, you mean the annual interest rate is 6%!" editor in chief Ma Lingguang said.


    Shopkeeper fan smiled and said, "yes, it''s the annual interest rate of 6%


    This time, almost everyone has fried the pot. They have never heard of the printing money with an annual interest rate of 6%. No, they have heard that it is the quotation given by the Mohist to the Ziqian family, but the Ziqian family has already rejected it. As for the printing money with an annual interest rate of 3% borrowed by the Mohist to the citizens of Chang''an, it has been divorced from the concept of printing money.


    "How is this possible? Isn''t this the interest quotation given by Mozi to Ziqian''s family?" editor in chief Ma couldn''t believe it.


    Shopkeeper fan solemnly nodded and said, "yes, mohou''s words are perfect. Since he said that the price of Indian money is 6% per annum, that is 6% per annum. The interest quoted to the bank is 6% per annum, and the price of loan to fan is also 6% per annum."


    "Mo Hou is domineering!"


    They were so excited that they couldn''t hold their own way, and were convinced by the pride of Mohist Zi.


    "The annual interest rate is six percent!"


    The merchants were so excited that they couldn''t restrain themselves. As businessmen, everyone would encounter a time when they were short of money. At this time, they couldn''t borrow money and were unwilling to lend money. Now the interest at the annual interest rate of 6% is just like a scholar who was ecstatic when he heard the interest consumption of emperor kaienke.


    Since the interest on the bank loan is the quotation given by Mozi to Ziqian, doesn''t it mean that the interest for two years is seven percent,...... the interest for five years is one point, and it''s not compound interest.


    "The annual interest rate of 7500 yuan is 6%, so there are no additional conditions." editor in chief Ma said reluctantly. He didn''t believe that the Mohist family would be so charitable. After all, it''s not a few yuan, but 7500 yuan. If someone takes the money and runs away, what can the Mohist family do to him.


    Shopkeeper fan added: "of course, if you want to borrow an annual interest rate of 6%, you must use the equivalent real estate as collateral. Fan can only borrow 7500 yuan with fan''s house and fan''s firm as collateral.


    "So it is?" people couldn''t help but realize that in this way, it''s reasonable. Fan''s industry is worth such a high price according to the market price.


    "It''s that simple?" chief editor Ma asked disappointed. He originally wanted to collect the black material of Mohist school, but if it was exposed, I''m afraid it would only make Mohist School''s reputation better.


    Shopkeeper fan affirmed, "it''s that simple."


    Editor in chief Ma looked at the bank door a little stiff. The annual interest rate of 6% can not be called printing money. Compared with the printing money with a monthly interest rate of 1%, it is simply doing charity.


    He never thought that there would be people in the world who didn''t earn money, not to mention the annual interest rate of 6%, that is, the annual interest rate of 3%. Some people also scrambled to borrow, and the Mohist family directly reduced the interest rate to 6%, which is what will happen to the rice bowl of the Zi Qian family!


    I don''t know whether I want to take a gamble to retaliate against Zi Qian''s family or whether the sword points to something.


    As manager fan left with his head held high, everyone knew that with the 75000 yuan of cash, fan''s firm could make a comeback in the near future.


    Seeing this scene, Shen Hongcai couldn''t help showing a proud smile. From today on, Mojia village bank will really rise and become the most eye-catching place in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 857

    "What, Mozi gave the money to the fan family." the second owner of the Zi Qian family suddenly stood up and stared at shopkeeper Yao who came to report.


    Fan''s firm is the prey of the Zi Qian family, but who could have thought that the other party was cut off by the Mo family.


    "The Mohist family wants to fight against the Ziqian family! Send a letter to the fan family and tell him that the interest can be discussed again." the second owner of the Ziqian family said gloomily all night. After such a stir by the Mo family, the Zi Qian family may make a lot less.


    Shopkeeper Yao shook his head and said, "it''s useless. The Mohist family directly quoted an annual interest rate of 6%, and the fan family has borrowed 7500 yuan."


    "The annual interest rate is six percent!" the second owner of Ziqian''s family was shocked and looked at shopkeeper Yao in disbelief.


    Shopkeeper Yao nodded bitterly. When mojiazi offered an annual interest rate of 6%, everyone thought it was a joke, and mojiazi turned them into a joke.


    "The Mohist family wants to revenge the Ziqian family!" the second owner of the Ziqian family suddenly realized the layout of the Mohist family. I''m afraid the Mohist family has long guessed that the Ziqian family is behind the fake silver ticket case. Although there is no evidence, it sometimes doesn''t need evidence for the Mohist family.


    "What should the owner do?" shopkeeper Yao said in fear. When he tossed the fake silver ticket, he also participated in it.


    The second owner of Ziqian''s family said with a frozen face: "My son Qian''s family has been handed down for thousands of years. How can it be shaken by a newly revived Mohist school? Mohist school has no money at all. His money is the printed money given to him by the people of Chang''an. Now he uses the printed money. How can the people be willing to release the wind to the people of Chang''an city immediately? As long as the people take away their deposits, Mohist school will be revealed."


    The reason why mojiazi has spare money to lend to others is that he has a lot of deposits in his hands. Without these deposits, mojiazi will no longer have the capital to get involved in the money business.


    Shopkeeper Yao shook his head and said, "the second owner, the people put the Mojia Zi''s printing money at an annual interest rate of 3%, while the Mojia Zi gave the fan family the printing money at an annual interest rate of 6%, a full double of the income, which is enough to ensure the interests of those mud legs, and if those mud legs take away their deposits now, it will be a full three times less income. I''m afraid few people are willing."


    At first, the people of Chang''an City were very disgusted with mojiazi''s money. Later, when they heard that the annual interest rate was only 6%, they cheered. Only mojiazi had income. Naturally, their interest would be indispensable. Moreover, if they didn''t withdraw money when it was due, so much income would be lost all of a sudden. Isn''t it robbing money from their pockets? They usually want to spend a penny in half For the people, it was worse than killing them.


    "These mud legs!" said the second owner of Ziqian family angrily. It is these mud legs they despise and bully wantonly that have forced Ziqian family to a dead end.


    "The Mohist family is not afraid to lend out all their money and once again embark on the danger of lack of money." the second owner of the Zi Qian family angrily said.


    Shopkeeper Yao smiled bitterly and said, "the Mojia Zi gave the fan family a 75000 yuan bill of exchange. As long as the fan family doesn''t use all the money, the money will still be in the bank, and the fan family should ensure that future transactions must be carried out in the bank. With the silver notes issued by the Mojia, I''m afraid it will hardly use 500000 yuan of cash."


    Most of the fan family''s business scope is in Luoyang generation of Chang''an. Unless the fan family takes all the cash away, the silver is just the left hand to the right hand of the bank, and the fan family is naturally willing to do so. On the one hand, the transaction is safe, on the other hand, the trouble of escorting silver is reduced, and on the other hand, it can please the bank and borrow money smoothly in the future.


    "In addition, the business community in Chang''an city is also surging. First, the interest rate of 6% a year is too attractive. Second, there are rumors in the business community that they deposit money in the Mojia village bank today, and the Mojia village bank will help when they are in trouble in the future." shopkeeper Yao revealed another news that made his son Qian''s second owner angry.


    Chang''an city is a city with a strong commercial atmosphere. It is not the ordinary people who are really rich, but the big businessmen. Most of them hold heavy money and are also the most short of money. The interest of 6% a year is a great gospel.


    Besides, even if you are not short of money now, you can guarantee that you will not be short of money in the future. You don''t have a good relationship with the bank now. In the future, it will be difficult to speak again when you encounter difficulties. Saving your money in the bank or using the bank''s bill of exchange business will bring benefits to yourself and have a good relationship in the future.


    Businessmen have always been selfish and attached great importance to money. It is impossible for them to lend their money to others to tide over the difficulties. Similarly, they are the same. Therefore, this gives Ziqian family an opportunity to slowly lay out and trap it.


    However, the emergence of Mojia village bank has changed this form. Businessmen do not trust each other. However, they believe that Mojia Zi. Ordinary businessmen can get an annual interest rate of 3% when they deposit their money in the bank, while businessmen who are short of money can tide over the difficulties despite paying an interest rate of 6%, while Mojia Zi can sit down and make money.


    Mojia village bank plays an intermediary role between the people and businessmen, and directly integrates the funds of the whole Chang''an city. What a powerful force it will be.


    "Bank!" the second owner of Ziqian''s family said bitterly. He thought he had looked up to the bank and even didn''t hesitate to snatch food from the mouth of Mozi, but he still underestimated the potential of the bank.


    When mojiazi showed all the layout of the bank, even he couldn''t help but applaud. He originally thought that the silver note was the ultimate use of reputation and reputation. Everyone was amazed by the bank''s deposit business and loan business, and the source of all this was the reputation and reputation abandoned by the Ziqian family at that time.


    "Boss, what should I do?" shopkeeper Yao said anxiously.


    The second owner of Zi Qian''s family had a ferocious face and said, "since the bank has become a big problem, we have to destroy it."


    "Destroy the bank? It''s the owner. The bank is heavily guarded. It''s not only protected by the public loser''s organ, but also adjacent to the palace. I''m afraid it''s difficult to start!" shopkeeper Yao shook his head.


    Even if they have the intention, no one has the courage. The Mohist school built the bank headquarters closest to the imperial palace. I''m afraid the craziest bandits have to give up. This is also the reason why no one dares to make an idea of the bank headquarters, knowing that there are 500000 existing banks in the Bank headquarters.


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family was shameless and said in a cruel voice, "if you are close to the palace, let the people in the palace destroy it. The Mohist Zi is smart and confused for a while, but he doesn''t know that Mu Xiu will destroy it. The Mohist family holds such a large amount of money. I''m afraid it has already become a thorn in the flesh of many people."


    Shopkeeper Yao suddenly realized that there were thousands of interests behind the Zi Qian family. How could those people sit still when they saw that their interests were plundered by the Mohist family? In addition, the Mohist family itself had many enemies. I think those people are not willing to let the Mohist family grow bigger.

 Chapter 858

    "Tell the emperor, I have this play..."


    "Wei Chen impeached the Mo family..."


    "The Mohist family is a son-in-law, but they are engaged in printing money...................."


    With the efforts of the Ziqian family, the whole dynasty was excited and impeached Merton''s business of printing money.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help holding his headache forehead. Every time the Mohist school made something, he would find him to end. This time, the memorial to impeach Merton alone was full of a table.


    "Hehe, since ancient times, sake has been popular, money and silk have moved people''s hearts, and the ancients sincerely didn''t deceive me." Li Shimin sneered at the memorials on the table.


    Merton''s every move of receiving and releasing printing money was under his eyes. He naturally knew it clearly. Even if he was an emperor, he would smack his tongue.


    "Your Majesty, the courtiers have asked to see you many times, and please make a decision." pound put a thick pile of memorials on the Dragon case and bowed down to report.


    "Make a decision? When Merton was killed, everyone stood by and even fell into the well secretly. Now the Mohists don''t steal or rob. They have gathered a large amount of money, and everyone is jealous!" Li Shimin sneered. He saw the faces of these aristocratic families most clearly.


    Pound nodded silently and said, "however, these officials have grasped the handle of the emperor''s son-in-law to put the printing money."


    "Printing money? The annual interest rate of 6% is also called printing money?" Li Shimin sneered.


    This time, he paid full attention to the loan and release of mojiazi''s printing money. Naturally, he also knew that the annual interest rate of mojiacun bank was 6%. Compared with the daily interest rate of Ziqian''s printing money of 3%, Merton was simply doing charity.


    "After all, once the printing money is not collected, it will force the creditor to sell children and women. In fact, it is too bloody. All officials are also worried about affecting the Royal reputation." pound said anxiously. From the Royal standpoint, Merton''s move is indeed inappropriate.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help himself, which was a hidden danger, but he didn''t believe Merton would do such a thing.


    "Tell your majesty, marquis Mo personally went to the court and asked to defend himself!" suddenly a bodyguard hurried to report.


    Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and said, "I don''t know what the wind is blowing today, but they all came. That''s just right. Let Merton wait in the Tai Chi hall and let him defend himself in front of all officials in the court hall."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "See your majesty!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Merton and all officials salute at the same time.


    "Dear Aiqing, please get up!" Li Shimin said with a big hand as he sat down on the Diaoyutai.


    After all the officials got up, Yu Zhining couldn''t wait to be listed and said: "I inform your majesty that Wei minister impeached Merton. As a hundred families and relatives of the emperor, he was even engaged in the printing money business. It is humiliating the name of 100 families and damaging the reputation of the Royal family."


    Yu Zhining took the lead, and other officials echoed one after another, denouncing the despicable act of the Mohist School of printing money.


    Li Shimin pretended that he didn''t know anything and said strangely: "put the printing money. How did I hear that the ink house was short of money some time ago. Even my baby daughter took the lead in frugality and advocated CD-ROM action."


    "CD operation is a great good."


    "Princess highness, virtuous and virtuous, diligent and frugal, is a model of women in the world."


    "The CD-ROM operation is the essence of diligence and thrift in China for thousands of years. The frugality of the Tang Dynasty is popular, and the princess should take the lead."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Hearing Li Shimin''s mention of Princess Changle''s achievements, many officials echoed that CD-ROM action is indeed the best weapon for saving, whether from the perspective of a wife or the saving wind of the whole Tang Dynasty. What''s more valuable is that it has won the hearts of the people more than the harsh thrift of Confucianism.


    When Li Shimin heard the affirmation of the officials, he couldn''t help smiling proudly. After all, it was his daughter. He was naturally proud to achieve such glory. However, when he turned to Merton, his face was cold: "Merton, how did you promise? Changle is the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. When did you suffer such grievances? It''s not because you''re short of money in the Mojia village."


    Merton couldn''t help but look bitter and said, "it''s the son-in-law''s fault. When you go back, you must order the back kitchen to restore the princess''s dishes."


    Li Shimin stroked his beard and said, "forget it. A person can''t eat more than a kilo of food a day. If you put it on the table, how much can you eat? Mr. Fang, please also ask the central government to draft a decree calling on the whole country to promote CD-ROM action."


    Since it is his daughter''s credit, Li Shimin naturally doesn''t care to add another fire and make this credit greater.


    "Your Majesty is wise. Everyone in the world is so thrifty. I can wait for the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty." Fang Xuanling bowed down to take orders.


    Yu Zhining couldn''t help complaining secretly. He watched Li Shimin take the painting style of chaotang to the side, but he couldn''t help it.


    "Your Majesty, the minister is going to cry for the royal highness of the princess. The royal highness of princesses encourages the action of the CD-ROM, which is a blessing for all the people of the world. However, it is a great blessing that can not withstand the evil brought by the bloody indian money." Yu Zhining shouted with pain.


    "Print money!" Li Shimin seemed to suddenly return to his mind and realized that they were still arguing about Merton''s putting print money.


    "Merton, is it true that the ministers started to play?" Li Shimin shouted to Merton.


    "Tell your majesty, it''s true. I accidentally borrowed too much money, so I couldn''t spend it all, so I let some out." Merton admitted without hesitation.


    "Borrow too much?"


    "Can''t spend it all?"


    The ministers could not help feeling envious and jealous. The world only hated that they had little money in their hands, and the Mexican family was worried about too much money in their hands.


    Li Shimin''s heart was sour. Not only the world was short of money, but even the emperor was short of money. The Tang Dynasty was full of money, and he wanted to have Merton''s troubles.


    "How much money did you borrow?" Cheng Yaojin asked everyone curiously.


    Merton opened his thumb and index finger and said with a simple and honest smile, "it''s 800000!"


    "Hiss!" suddenly everyone couldn''t help taking a breath. 800000 yuan. I''m afraid there isn''t so much cash in the Treasury now.


    Dai Zhou, headed by the Ministry of civil affairs, was crazy with jealousy. He was a servant of the Ministry of civil affairs and a senior official of the chaotang hall. He didn''t live as well as a doctor of the Imperial College. No, he should be said to be a shopkeeper now.


    "According to the annual interest rate of 3%, your annual interest money will be at least 24000 yuan."


    Cheng Yaojin also looked at Merton speechless. He didn''t know whether Merton was powerful or reckless. The extra expenditure of 24000 yuan a year was a heavy burden on who.


    Merton showed a trace of embarrassment and said, "to be exact, it should be 30000 yuan. Many people save five-year interest, which is higher. This is not the print money they will continue to collect in the future."


    "All 800000 yuan, return?"


    All the officials were in an uproar and stared at Merton one by one. The Mohists were too greedy

 Chapter 859

    Merton said bluntly: "the core idea of Mohism is to love each other at the same time. How can one part of people be allowed to save money and not another part of people be allowed to save money?"


    Yu Zhining''s nose is crooked, and Merton can rise to the concept of a hundred schools even if he receives a printing money.


    "Well, according to the Mohist concept of concurrent love, how can the people of Chang''an save money? Can the people of Luoyang, Zhengzhou and Chencang also put money on the Mohist village." Yu Zhining gnashed his teeth.


    "That''s natural. In the future, as long as anyone comes to Mojia village bank to deposit money, Mojia village will not refuse." Merton nodded without hesitation. It''s not just these places. Rihao Mojia village bank will expand there, and Mojia village''s deposit business will also expand there.


    At the moment, all officials are numb. I don''t know whether the Mohist family is a genius or a madman. It has envisaged such a grand plan. If the Mohist family really succeeds, the money in the Mohist family''s hands is astronomical.


    "We must stop the MOH family!" many ministers ignored it, and then nodded with understanding.


    "The Mohist school is too ambitious. You take deposits without restraint. In order to repay the interest of the people, you start to get involved in the printing money business." the Minister of Civil Affairs angrily scolded.


    Merton nodded without hesitation and admitted, "that''s natural. The interest of 30000 yuan a year is not a small amount. Otherwise, it will be a year''s work in Mojia village, and all the interest will be paid."


    "Tell your majesty that the money printing is notorious and does great harm. The Mohist school is an official of the imperial court. We are really ashamed to be with this man." Yi Zhengyan, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, angrily denounced.


    Merton said curiously, "is the annual interest rate of 6% also the printing money? I think I can''t borrow the printing money with the annual interest rate of 6%?"


    Many courtiers sighed in their hearts. Although they knew that the printing money with an annual interest rate of 6% of Mohist Zi was the gospel of the world, the infamous printing money has always made everyone instinctively reject this industry, let alone bear the reputation of Mohist, royal and officials.


    "Even a penny of interest is money printed. Do you know how many people are trapped in money printed, and their families are broken and their wives and children are separated." Yu Zhining said with righteous words.


    "In that case, printing money is very harmful. Why doesn''t the court order to seal up all banks and prohibit printing money?" Merton asked.


    "Er!" Yu Zhining concluded immediately. Everyone knows the harm of printing money, but printing money is everywhere in banks in Datang. Even temples have participated in this profiteering industry before.


    "It''s just opened by some humble businessmen, and Marquis Mo is a relative of the emperor. How can he speak in the same breath." the Minister of Civil Affairs gave a voice to help.


    Merton retorted, "in that case, when the court built the brick road, it issued 400000 bonds and promised to give an annual interest rate of 5.5%. Why is it not a kind of printing money, which is higher than the interest charged by the bank!"


    "Er!" the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs immediately concluded that when the imperial court issued bonds to build brick roads, it only promised an annual interest rate of 5%, which has triggered a rush to buy. Mojia village alone bought tens of thousands of guans. Now it seems that it is the same as the collection of printing money in Mojia village.


    "It was the imperial court that received the money, but it didn''t do such dirty acts as releasing the money." the Minister of Civil Affairs argued.


    Merton smiled and said, "I naturally know that the imperial court has not put money in print, but borrow this to explain that even the imperial court will be short of money, not to mention ordinary people. There are unexpected circumstances and people have misfortunes and blessings. No one can guarantee that they will be smooth sailing. If you encounter difficulties, there is no way to ask for help and there is no way out, I''m afraid you have to borrow money."


    All officials can''t help nodding. Everyone has bad luck and will inevitably encounter difficulties.


    "But the world loves the icing on the cake. No one can help in the snow. The more difficulties you encounter, the more money you may not be able to borrow. The so-called one penny forced the hero down. From then on, I''m afraid you have to take the road of printing money." Merton Lang said.


    "Everyone loves the icing on the cake, and no one gives charcoal in the snow."


    "A penny forced down the hero."


    Many officials can''t help dodging their eyes. Most of them are representatives of the rich and powerful families in Chang''an city. This time, the rich families tacitly blocked the cash flow of the Mohist village. Naturally, they can''t get rid of the dry cleaning. Why don''t they all love the icing on the cake and no one provides carbon in the snow.


    "People all over the world hate printing money, but they can''t live without printing money. This is the basis for the inheritance of the Ziqian family for thousands of years. Today, the Mohist family beat down the interest of printing money, so that people all over the world can get benefits from idle money, and merchants who are short of money can reverse the crisis. It can be said that it is a win-win situation. You and others are obstructing it. Is it possible that you and others are on the side of the Ziqian family?" Merton scolded.


    "Don''t talk about the Mohist family!" Yu Zhining quickly scolded, and other officials couldn''t help but worry. Although they have dry cleaning with the Zi Qian family, who dares to admit that they have contact with the notorious Zi Qian family.


    "Then Mo wants to ask whether banks are better or worse than banks, and whether the bank''s move is beneficial to the world." Merton threw his voice.


    All officials are silent. In any way, banks are thousands of times better than banks.


    "Qin is a supportive bank. He has already deposited all the wealth of the Qin family in the bank, and the annual interest is full of 30 yuan. If he is an ordinary family, it will be enough for a year''s expenses." Qin Qiong sighed.


    Many officials nodded. The price of Datang is not high. Many families earn less than 30 yuan a year, which is enough for a family to live a prosperous life in Chang''an city.


    Yu Zhining took a deep breath: "printing money is printing money. No matter how much the annual interest rate is, it can''t change its nature. Once the people don''t go up, will you Merton spare them generously?"


    As soon as Yu Zhining said this, all officials nodded one after another. The reason why the world criticized the Indian money is that in addition to the high interest rate, there is also the fact that the result is too miserable after the money is not paid. It is common that his wife and children are separated and his family is broken.


    Many honest officials agreed to impeach the Mohist family because of this. Suddenly everyone''s eyes focused on the Mohist family. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking and wanted to see the answer of the Mohist family.


    Merton shook his head without hesitation and said, "that''s natural. It''s natural for the so-called debt repayment. The money of the bank is not owned by Mo, but the money of the people all over the world. If the lender is exempted, isn''t it the money of the people to gain a reputation for the Mohist family, and I''m afraid this will encourage the lender to default."

 Chapter 860

    "So?"


    Many officials regretted one after another. Even mojiazi did not let go of those poor people who borrowed money from India, while those with ulterior motives were regretful. If mojiazi could exempt those who failed to repay the loan, they would have the opportunity to bring down mojiacun bank again.


    "If someone can''t pay even the printing money with an annual interest rate of 6%, or even lose the principal, how can Mojia village urge the account? Do you want to force him to sell his children and women, pawn his wife, and ruin his family until he receives the printing money." Yu Zhining sneered.


    His intentions are extremely vicious. Everyone knows that once he urges debts, he will inevitably face violence. Once the Mexican family bank urges debts violently, it must be a big scandal and his reputation will be ruined. Li Shimin''s face suddenly sank. Merton married Princess Changle, which involves the reputation of the royal family. If Merton repeatedly broke rumors of forcing people to destroy their family, I''m afraid even he has a black face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the Mohists love all living beings. How can they do such things that violate the Mohist concept."


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down and said, "what will Mojia village do if the people are unable to repay the loan?"


    Merton looked around and said solemnly, "Mo has long discussed this situation. First, when people apply for a loan, the bank will review his repayment ability and purpose. If it is a business that must lose money, the Mohists will naturally refuse the loan."


    All officials nodded. The most successful business in the world is Mojia village. If even Mojia village thinks that this business is doomed to lose money, it will not lose money.


    "Second, bank loans are not to exploit merchants, but to offset the interest on deposits. The annual interest rate of 6% a year is the lowest interest on borrowing money in the world. If the other party loses money, it can only be said that the other party''s bad luck has nothing to do with Mohism."


    Li Shimin could not help nodding. The interest rate of 6% a year is an unimaginable low interest rate in this era. If it is still a loss, it really can''t blame others.


    "Third, anyone who makes a loan in Mojia village must have a mortgage. If he fails to repay the loan at maturity, he will auction the mortgaged real estate and land properties to repay the loan. In this way, even if the money auctioned is not enough for the principal and interest, there is not much difference, and the borrower will not bear too much debt."


    Mortgage is the biggest difference between banks and banks. If you want a loan, you must have a mortgage with very low interest. Although the printing money released by the bank does not need mortgage, the interest is very high. In the end, it is forced to sell fields and houses without money.


    "If the other party loses too much, he will never repay the loan?" suddenly, an old voice suddenly said.


    When all officials looked at it, it turned out that Wei Zheng personally questioned Merton. Yu Zhining was overjoyed. Even Wei Zheng personally questioned the Mohist family. The Mohist family must be doomed.


    Merton raised his head and confidently met Wei Zheng''s eyes and said, "if he really doesn''t, he doesn''t have to pay it back."


    "Don''t pay it back?" the officials were in an uproar. They didn''t expect that the Mo family would give such an answer.


    "Seriously?" Wei Zheng asked.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "that''s natural. If the borrower is insolvent or unable to repay the principal and interest, he can apply for bankruptcy."


    "Bankrupt?" Wei Zheng frowned.


    Merton explained: "The bankruptcy system is a kind of Mohist protection for creditors. When creditors are unable to repay the principal and interest and apply for bankruptcy, the bank will only liquidate the creditors'' existing property. Even if it is not enough for the principal and interest of the loan, the bank will forgive its outstanding debts, not move the creditors and their relatives, but will leave them a certain living guarantee, so as not to let them go There is no way for him to start a new life. "


    "Discharge its outstanding debts!"


    "Real estate creditors and their relatives have nothing!"


    "Leave a certain living guarantee!"


    All the officials were stunned when they heard Merton''s promise. No one thought that Merton should be so generous. Compared with the killing of the Ziqian family, the bankruptcy system of the Mohist family is a blessing.


    Wei Zheng''s eyes lit up and his mind changed: "what if the Mohists don''t accept bankruptcy?"


    Merton said proudly with a smile: "the Mohist school will hand over the examination of creditor bankruptcy to the legalist school for trial. As long as the legalist school recognizes it, the Mohist school will accept it unconditionally."


    The crowd suddenly burst into an uproar. Then they knew that Mojia Zi was not joking. Although the Legalists now live in Mojia village, everyone knew that the Legalists could not obey the orders of the Mojia. Under the impartial review of the Legalists, I''m afraid it would be the greatest protection for the bankrupt.


    "The noble Mo family did not disappoint me. If you do what you say, I will be the first to support you." Wei Zheng said with a smile, and the first to support the Mo family.


    "Ah! That''s money!" Yu Zhining was surprised and couldn''t help looking at Wei Zheng. Wei Zheng has great influence among civil servants. If he supports Merton, I''m afraid many civil servants will turn against him.


    "I''ve never heard of printing money with an annual interest rate of 6%, nor have I heard of printing money without blood. Banks receive printing money. People all over the world make profits and lend money to merchants. Merchants turn the crisis into safety and regain their vitality. No matter who runs the printing money, Wei will strongly support it." Wei Zheng shook his gray head with sonorous strength.


    "What Wei Aiqing said is that I''m afraid bank loans can''t be regarded as printing money." Li Shimin praised.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" many officials echoed one after another. With such low interest rates and the protection of borrowers by the bankruptcy system, bank loans have been divorced from the world''s understanding of print money.


    "The old minister also supports mohou. The world has suffered for a long time, and the emergence of bank loans is the gospel of the people." Dai Zhou said. Ziqian family''s release of printed money will only lead to crazy plunder, resulting in the bankruptcy of businesses. The loans of Mojia village bank help businesses come back from the dead this time. It is also of great benefit for the imperial court to collect business tax. Thanks to the rise of Mojia, the business tax has increased significantly in recent years, and even the imperial court can not be ignored.


    "The old minister also supports Mo Hou!" Fang Xuanling also bowed.


    "We also support mohou!"


    Then the court leaders expressed their support for Merton, and many officials were unwilling. However, they knew that there was no way to return to heaven. After all, the reputation of the Ziqian family was too bad. Most court officials cherished their feathers. How can they defend the Ziqian family too much? Moreover, the readiness of the Mexican family was too sufficient. A bankruptcy system was enough to wash away everyone''s criticism.

 Chapter 861

    "Bankruptcy system!"


    "If you don''t pay the money, you don''t have to pay it back?"


    The merchant''s news is the most well-informed. Shortly after the end of chaotang, the bankruptcy system of Mojia village bank has spread all over Chang''an city.


    Chang''an merchants were in an uproar and unbelievable one after another. Although it is said that everyone is unwilling to embark on the road of bankruptcy, who can ensure their long-term prosperity? The bankruptcy system in Mojia village simply retains the last trace of dignity for businessmen. It only liquidates the existing property, does not affect his wife and children, and will leave a certain life guarantee, which was unthinkable before.


    For a long time, Chang''an merchants will not choose to borrow money unless they are forced to a dead end. It is not that these merchants are not short of money, but that the cost of borrowing money is too high.


    However, the lower interest rate and bankruptcy system of Mojia village bank made them put down their guard and suddenly opened the hungry financial market of Chang''an city. Large merchants rushed to Mojia village bank to ask for loans with house and land deeds.


    Everyone knows that the loan is the best at this time. Only by lending half of the money can the Mojia village bank maintain a balance of revenue and expenditure.


    "200000 Guan! In just one day, Chang''an merchants will borrow 200000 Guan money!"


    In the ink house, Shen Hongcai changed his previous worry and said with a smile that he finally didn''t have to worry about the high interest that the Mojia village bank needs to pay every year.


    The short experience of the bank manager is more wonderful than his life experience in the Imperial College. It is more fascinating than being in power to master such a large amount of money.


    "Brother Shen can''t borrow all the money. Mojia village still needs a lot of money?" Xu Jie asked.


    "That''s natural!" Shen Hongcai said proudly. "After Shen''s calculation, the bank only needs to prepare 12% of the deposit as the reserve, which is enough to deal with the risk. However, for the sake of safety, Shen decided that the reserve of mojiacun bank should be at least 20%


    "The bank has just been established. It''s better to be conservative, but don''t count the profits of Mojia village. When necessary, Mojia village will try its best to come to the bank." Merton nodded. If the reserve is too high, the bank will not make money or even lose money, but if the reserve is too low, once the Mojia village bank faces a large-scale run, it will not recover the loan, which is too risky, Although the reserve of 20% is a little conservative, it also leaves 30% profit for mojiacun bank.


    "30% profit!" Xu Jie couldn''t help sighing. According to the existing deposit of 800000 yuan of Mojia village bank, the annual profit of Mojia village bank is nearly 15000 yuan, which is too easy to earn.


    Shen Hongcai couldn''t help but be proud. This is not the limit of the bank. Once the deposit scale increases significantly, the bank''s profits will certainly further expand. Of course, the bank is not without risks. Once someone defaults or goes bankrupt, the bank will certainly suffer heavy losses.


    "At this rate, the bank''s loan quota will be used up soon. Now the banks in Chencang and Zhengzhou have been completed. If they can continue to absorb deposits, it will certainly make the bank go further." Shen Hongcai thought about it and suggested that now Chang''an city is very hungry for money and use funds from other places to support Chang''an city, I''m afraid I can''t be satisfied.


    Merton nodded and said, "that''s natural. As long as the bank opens in the future, it will immediately carry out deposit business. As for loan business, it needs to be done step by step to give priority to Chang''an City, followed by Mojia village, and then Luoyang......"


    Merton ranks Mojia village ahead of Luoyang. Of course, it is selfish. In terms of the scale of the loan market, Luoyang is much larger than Mojia village. However, Mojia village is under the control of Mojia village, and the loan security is naturally the highest. Second, most of the industrial workshops in Mojia Village adopt ink technology, which is the foundation of Mojia, while Luoyang city is mostly engaged in business exchanges. In contrast, Merton naturally took the development of Mohism as the first.


    "By the way, the foundation of Mohism is industry. When banks grant loans, they can give priority to craftsman workshops. Even if the mortgage is not enough, they can relax the conditions appropriately." Merton ordered.


    "But in this way, the risk of the bank will increase a lot!" Shen Hongcai frowned.


    In this era, the richest people are businessmen. Their capital is the most abundant and the value of collateral is the largest. However, industrial investment is large and takes up a lot of money. They often can''t take out valuable collateral. If they lose, I''m afraid the bank will lose a lot.


    "The foundation of Mohism is industry. Only when industry is strong can Mohism revive. Supporting industry is a constant concept of Mohism. Even if the bank doesn''t make money, it should leave at least 30% of the loan funds for the workshop." Merton said without hesitation.


    "That''s all right!" Shen Hongcai said reluctantly. Who''s Merton? However, although the risk of lending to the workshop is a little higher, as long as the control is strict, there should be no problem. After all, even if it''s lending to the workshop, it also needs to pay interest.


    "Mohism supports craftsman workshops!"


    "Not only the approval conditions are loose, but also there are low interest loans."


    As soon as this news came out, the industrial corridor between the south of Chang''an City and Mojia village and the Southwest Industrial Zone immediately became a sensation. Compared with the merchants'' high buying and low selling, as long as the goods are safe, there is no great risk, and the investment of the workshop is extremely amazing, which requires more money. However, as soon as the Mojia ink technology came out, the renewal of the workshop is accelerated, The workshop is even more risky.


    Once they can''t keep up with the times, a large number of goods are hoarded in their hands and the capital chain is broken, they have to wait for death, and the bank''s low interest loans make them feel like a long drought and rain.


    "Lin''s car and horse shop only used one piece of land and borrowed 5000 yuan from the bank!" a surprising news came quickly from Chang''an city.


    "Isn''t Lin''s car and horse company competing with Mohist car and horse company? Can they even borrow money?" someone was surprised.


    When the Mohist four-wheel carriage first came out, Lin''s carriage and horse shop imitated the Mohist four-wheel carriage and made a lot of money. Unfortunately, with the improvement of the second generation of Mohist carriage and the fierce competition of four-wheel carriage, it soon declined.


    "After all, Mojia village and Linjia village are both craftsmen. After getting the loan, Lin''s car and horse shop ordered 3000 pieces of carriage glass in Mojia village. With this batch of glass, Lin''s car and horse shop will be full of vitality." an informed merchant envied.


    "There are also rumors that any workshop that uses Mohist ink technology can enjoy low interest loans. It is said that the lowest interest rate is only 3% a year? Liu Jiazhuang uses Mohist red brick technology and wants to expand the brick kiln. Mohist village has a direct loan of 500 yuan with an annual interest rate of 3%. A citizen smacked that the loan with an annual interest rate of 3% can be said that Mohist does not make money at all and has to bear the risk of bankruptcy of the lender.


    "The Mohist school really needs everything to revive the Mohist school." a Confucian scholar said bitterly. People with a clear eye know that the Mohist School''s move is to revive the Mohist School and spare no expense.


    "That''s nothing?" an idle man said proudly, "Gongshu family and Mohism are recognized rivals. However, Gongshu Hao, the young master of Gongshu family, is appreciated by Mohists. He directly lent Gongshu Hao 5000 yuan to start a lock workshop without interest."


    "Seriously?" people couldn''t believe it. Printing money without interest for a penny was unthinkable.


    "What''s more incredible? According to the Mohist rumor, as long as you have new technology and are appreciated by the Mohist, the Mohist can directly pay money to help you set up a workshop, and you only need to pay a small amount of workshop members." the idle man despised Sifang.


    "Is there such a good thing?"


    "Can there be such a free lunch in the world?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The crowd said one after another.


    "It''s impossible for others, but nothing is impossible for Mohists." the idle man worshipped with his eyes.


    Everyone was silent, which was indeed in line with the style of Mohist school.


    With the preferential treatment given by the Mohist school to the craftsman workshop, the entire industrial community in Chang''an City cheered. With sufficient financial support, it injected fresh blood into Datang, and the spring of Datang industry is coming.

 Chapter 862

    "Congratulations on the breakthrough of Mojia village deposit in millions!"


    When the huge banner was hung in the Bank of Mojia village, Rao Shi, the people of Chang''an City, had expected this for a long time, and couldn''t help but look pale.


    That''s millions of dollars! Not hundreds of words. Hundreds of years ago, apart from the civil Department of the imperial court, they had never heard of anyone who could have such a huge wealth. The money accumulated by the Bank of Mojia village in recent months exceeded the wealth owned by the oldest aristocratic family in the Tang Dynasty. Although these money were not owned by Merton, Merton had the right to control these money, This in itself is a huge energy.


    "How much interest do Mohists have to pay every year for millions of printing money!" many people smacked.


    A merchant sneered: "what''s the interest of 3% a year? The interest of mojiazi''s loan is at least 6% a year. It''s enough to double the price difference. It''s not a loss for mojiazi."


    "It''s said that mojiazi only left 200000 guans, enough to lend 800000 guans! He can earn at least 30000 guans a year," an idle man said.


    "Eight hundred thousand passes! So many?" the crowd exclaimed.


    "That''s natural. The printing money with an annual interest rate of 6% has never existed in ancient times. Now you don''t borrow it. Can you borrow the printing money of Ziqian''s family when there is no money?" a merchant sneered.


    The idle man hesitated and said, "if everyone borrows money from the bank, what will the money family do?"


    The merchant hummed coldly: "naturally, no one cares. As far as I know, the major banks in Chang''an City have not opened for a long time."


    "Ziqian family, you also have today?" the people gnashed their teeth one after another.


    The reputation of the Ziqian family can be said to be a smelly street. When they heard that the Ziqian family was unlucky, they clapped their hands one by one.


    "The Mo family is simply deceiving people too much!"


    In the secret manor outside the city, the second owner of Ziqian family was furious at the dismal performance of the bank in his hand.


    Cao Guangqi said bitterly, "I''ll report back to my boss. Now Chang''an city is competing for loans from mojiazi, and no one cares about the major banks."


    The bank business in Mojia village is booming, but it is gloomy for a group of son Qian families. All the time, the son Qian family has been disadvantageous by using the money in their hands. However, against the background of Mojia''s printing money with an annual interest rate of 6%, it suddenly turned ugly and was resisted by everyone.


    "Mohism is going to be the enemy of my son Qian''s family forever!" the second owner of the son Qian''s family said gnashing his teeth. He didn''t realize that he provoked Merton first. If he hadn''t forced the Mojia village into a desperate situation with the fake silver ticket case and the influence of Ziqian family, how could Merton have such a fierce counterattack.


    Businessmen have always been cautious in their business. The credit market is not large as long as there is much principal to do. As soon as the Mojia village bank is engaged, there is little left in the bank''s market. Several commercial banks that were originally targeted have long been out of trouble. Not only is there no business during this period of time. As long as the Mojia village bank is there, the Ziqian family will never recover.


    "Now the Ziqian families all over the country have sent letters to blame us for provoking the Mexican family rashly?" Cao Guangqi said helplessly. The second owner of the Ziqian family provoked the Mexican family and led a great enemy to the Ziqian family. Other Ziqian families naturally attributed the responsibility to the second owner of the Ziqian family.


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family blushed and said, "these fools still don''t understand. When the Mo family establishes a bank, it indicates that this scene will appear sooner or later. Sooner or later, the Mo family and the Zi Qian family will be at odds."


    I have to say that the second owner of Ziqian family is right. Both banks and banks operate money for a living. The nature of their business is similar. Sooner or later, they will take the step of confrontation. The second owner of Ziqian family''s initiative provocation is just to detonate it in advance.


    "Second owner, what should I do now?" Cao Guangqi frowned.


    The second owner of the son Qian family sneered: "what to do? The ambition of mojiazi has been well known. The mojiacun bank has expanded four cities and one village. Over time, when the mojiacun bank opens to the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty, I hope they can still sit down."


    "The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the host is wise!" Cao Guangqi complimented.


    The second owner of Ziqian family said proudly, "don''t be proud of the Mohist family. You can''t easily shake the inheritance of Ziqian family for thousands of years."


    Suddenly, with a flutter, a carrier pigeon flew straight into the living room and fell next to the second owner of the Ziqian family.


    The second owner of the Ziqian family stretched out his hand and took out a secret letter from the carrier pigeon''s foot. When he opened it, his face suddenly changed and suddenly exclaimed, "how is this possible?"


    "Boss, what''s the matter?" Cao Guangqi hurriedly said.


    "We''re exposed! The Yamen servants of Chang''an County Yamen are coming." the second owner of Zi Qian''s family looked at the superstition in his hand and said with an iron green face. If his son Qian''s family hadn''t left a secret move, I''m afraid they wouldn''t even know if the Yamen came to the door.


    "How is this possible?" Cao Guangqi said with a shocked face. The ability of the money family to survive is to hide in the dark. If the Mo family knows their identity, it will be settled by the Mo family in the autumn. We should know that the Mo family has suffered heavy losses in a single case of fake silver tickets. More importantly, the Mo family can''t tolerate a dens for openly making fake silver tickets under the eyelids, which makes the Mo family like a lump in the throat.


    "It seems that this great manor can no longer be preserved." the second owner of Ziqian family looked at the exquisite manor and said with regret.


    "What about the old craftsmen Liu?" Cao Guangqi asked carefully.


    The second owner of Ziqian''s family turned cold and made a gesture of killing his mouth.


    Cao Guangqi nodded comprehensively and turned to leave. After Cao Guangqi left, the second owner of the Ziqian family waved his hand, and two warriors immediately followed Cao Guangqi away from the door.


    Soon it came, and several screams came from the ground. After a while, two warriors covered with blood came back and reported: "return to young master, Cao Guangqi and the Liu family have been killed."


    The second owner of Ziqian family looked at the thick smoke that had come out in the direction of the basement, and couldn''t help but show a trace of regret: "Cao Guangqi, don''t resent me. Since you have been exposed, as Ziqian family, you should know this will happen."


    Cao Guangqi has followed him for a long time. Now he is forced to shut up. How can it make his heart feel better.


    "Young master, let''s go! The fire has started and the Yamen in Chang''an County is coming soon." a warrior urged.


    The second owner of Ziqian family no longer insisted, nodded obediently, turned into a secret Road, and soon appeared several miles away from the manor.


    The second owner of the Zi Qian family set foot on the carriage that had already been prepared. Looking back and seeing the burning manor in the distance, he couldn''t help revealing a trace of coldness: "Mo family son, this is the second time that you forced the young master to flee in embarrassment. I remember today''s revenge and go back to Chang''an city."


    "Second brother, where are you going?" suddenly a crisp girl''s voice sounded, which immediately made the second owner of Ziqian''s family feel like being struck by lightning.


    "Wu Meiniang!" the second owner of Ziqian family suddenly raised his head and saw Wu Meiniang under the arch guard of a group of Mohist children opposite. Wu Meiniang, who was yellow and skinny in the Wu house, has now grown into a Shuiling girl. He smiled and looked at Wu yuanshuang.

 Chapter 863

    Yes, no one thought that the famous second owner of the son Qian family was Wu yuanshuang, a recognized waste in Chang''an city.


    "Second younger sister, what are you talking about? Why can''t I understand?" Wu yuanshuang pretended to be stunned.


    Wu Meiniang smiled like a bell and said, "don''t you think it''s a coincidence that the second brother, the Yamen of Chang''an County Yamen is about to arrive, and the younger sister leads the children of the Mohists to wait here?"


    Wu yuanshuang suddenly turned blue and said in a harsh voice, "who betrayed me and became a traitor to Ziqian''s family?"


    It must be someone who betrayed the Mohist School and the county government that can find his trace and dens so accurately.


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "the Ziqian family has always put interests first. Now in Chang''an City, the Ziqian family is dying and has lost interests. Isn''t it reasonable to be abandoned?"


    Wu yuanshuang immediately stayed there. After a long time, he said in a cruel voice, "in that case, where is the son of Mohism? Just because you are a yellow haired girl, you are also qualified to talk to me."


    Wu Meiniang turned her apricot eyes and said with a sneer: "after the master learned that your identity involved me, she specially asked me for advice. My little sister volunteered to ask my second brother a word."


    "As the second owner of the son Qian family, you handle countless money and food. Our Martial Arts House also doesn''t lack money, glory and wealth. Why didn''t you have enough food for the old, the three children and have to kill them all." Wu Meiniang said word by word.


    "Why?" Wu yuanshuang laughed wildly, "because we are Ziqian family. We are the most greedy Ziqian family in the world. It is a sin for useless people to spend a penny, not to mention the four of you."


    "Useless people? Your mother is your stepmother, and we are your sister. You drove us out of the house for a little money, regardless of reputation, and let us live and die?" Wu Meiniang dared not believe.


    "Stepmother and sister, if it weren''t for you, how could my mother die?" Wu yuanshuang said with a trace of pain.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "what does this have to do with us? As far as I know, the eldest lady died of illness before her mother passed the door."


    Wu yuanshuang laughed wildly: "It doesn''t matter. It doesn''t matter. At that time, my father was just a small merchant. Even if he followed Li Yuan, he was ridiculed many times, while my mother was just a declining family. There was little help that my father could give. He was snubbed by my father. It was more depressed than dying of illness. Even being killed secretly. Sure enough, my father died after my mother died As expected, I married again. I married the queen of the royal family, even if the queen of the royal family was a yellow faced woman in her forties. "


    It can be said impolitely that the whole Chang''an city knows that Samurai Yu married Yang for the sake of Yang''s royal status,


    "You should have arranged your father like this. Aren''t you afraid that your father will be blamed under the nine springs?" Wu Meiniang exclaimed. She didn''t believe that in her mind, Weian''s father was said so unbearably by the second brother.


    "Father?" Wu yuanshuang said with a trace of hatred in his eyes, "do you know where the second brother, the second owner of the money family, came from?"


    Wu Meiniang said in disbelief, "is it my father..."


    Wu yuanshuang immediately showed a trace of resentment, mixed with worship: "That''s natural. My father is the real Ziqian family. He is a really ruthless Ziqian family. The Wu family was originally a merchant. How can my father be the Duke of the country? It''s not the time when Li Tang started his family. The Ziqian family pushed his father to the open and funded Li Tang with a large amount of money. It can be said that Li Tang''s world was made with my son''s money."


    When Li Yuan set out to fight in Taiyuan, it was not only Merton''s father, Mo lie, who fought for the future of Mohism. It was almost a hundred families who were secretly making efforts to seek a seat in the future Dynasty. The Ziqian family also acted secretly. The apparent spokesman was their father Samurai Yu. What Wu yuanshuang really admired was that he just gave people money His father gave money to Tang Dynasty. Of course, Li Yuan could not pay back the money to the Ziqian family, but he kept the status and stability of the Ziqian family.


    Wu Meiniang was shocked and said, "how is this possible?"


    "In that case, I''ll make you die hard. The reason why the second brother was cruel to you at the beginning was not only that I hated the bitch of the Yang family, but also a more important reason. This was the test of the Ziqian family. Only when I really sat in the position of the owner of the Ziqian family and was ruthless and mercenary, could I sit in the position of the owner of the Ziqian family. In those years, my father also used my mother''s life to climb in this position." Wu yuanshuang''s face was full of madness. Although Yang was a sequel, Wu yuanshuang hated Yang''s mother very much. Coupled with the test of Zi Qian''s family, he immediately vented all his hatred on Wu Meiniang.


    Wu Meiniang was young after all. She couldn''t help but stumble a few times when she heard the news. What happened today is simply subverting her three outlooks.


    "Eldest martial sister!" the Mohist children nearby hurriedly helped Wu Meiniang.


    Wu Meiniang waved her hand and calmed down. She looked at Wu yuanshuang coldly and said, "although you have no feelings for Mei Niang, Mei Niang misses the blood relatives of your brothers and sisters. This time, you can''t escape the magnificent legal net. Zhenzhou is far away from the ends of the earth. I hope you have a good trip."


    "What, you want me to be sent to Zhenzhou. I''m the second son of the Chinese Duke and the owner of the Ziqian family." Wu yuanshuang said in panic.


    Zhenzhou is Hainan for later generations, but it doesn''t look like a tourist resort for later generations. In this era, there are poor mountains and rivers and miasma everywhere. If you are exiled here, you may have no return and a narrow escape.


    "The identity of the second son of the Duke of China can also save your life. Otherwise, the blood committed by your boss Qian''s family is enough to kill the first few times. Now that Datang has a bank, there is no need for the notorious son Qian''s family." Wu Meiniang denounced.


    Not to mention his previous blood, that is, how many victims of the counterfeit silver ticket case are and how bad the impact is, let alone two fires and so many lives.


    "Wu yuanshuang, you''ve committed a crime, so you''d better go to Chang''an County Yamen for us!" Constable Cao, who had already lamented from the fire scene, led the Yamen to surround Wu yuanshuang and others. The two warriors wanted to resist and were soon taken by the Yamen on the spot.


    "Hahaha, the second younger sister is worthy of the blood of Ziqian family. She is cruel and ruthless. One day, you will hurt your blood relatives and flesh and blood. This is the curse of my Ziqian family. Don''t think you can turn over and escape after entering Mohist school." Wu yuanshuang said madly.


    "Take it away!" Constable Cao took a worried look at the absent-minded Wu Meiniang and directly escorted Wu yuanshuang and his party away.


    Soon, when a group of constables arrived at Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city immediately became a sensation.


    "The culprit of the fake silver ticket case has finally been caught!"


    People rushed to tell each other, and what was even more talked about was that the mastermind of the counterfeit silver ticket case was Wu yuanshuang, the notorious second son of the Duke of the state in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 864

    "The son of God, Qian, cheated the old man thirty Wen with a fake silver note!"


    "Heartless, shameless scum!"


    "Driving away stepmothers and sisters and putting money in print is a disgrace to dignitaries."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an city rushed to denounce Wu yuanshuang''s despicable behavior, which made the Wu family with bad reputation worse.


    In the court hall, there was an uproar. It was a big scandal that Xun GUI participated in the release of printing money.


    Although many aristocratic families are more or less involved in the money printing business, most of them are looking for spokesmen or servants to replace them, and Wu yuanshuang is the spokesperson of the money printing family in Chang''an. However, no one thought that he was even brought up by the Mohist family, and it was even involved in the old story of driving away Yang''s mother and daughter.


    Although Wu yuanshuang was secretly involved in many cases, no one pleaded for him and asked for heavy punishment.


    "Your Majesty, this is the memorial of impeaching Wu yuanshuang played by all officials." pound added a copy to the thick stack of memorials.


    Li Shimin can''t help rubbing his head with a headache. Before, the memorials of impeaching mojiazi were full of the Dragon case. Now, the atmosphere has changed to impeaching Wu yuanshuang.


    I picked up a few copies and couldn''t help laughing. I impeached Wu yuanshuang''s unfilial behavior and the release of money.


    "When Yang was expelled from his family, none of the officials in the Manchu Dynasty spoke for him. Only Merton helped him. Now everyone has turned into a righteous generation." Li Shimin sneered.


    "After all, it''s the family business of the Wu family, but it''s said that Yang''s reputation was bad when he was young!" pound said in a aside.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly: "when Yang was young, he really had a bad wind evaluation, but after he married into the martial arts house, he was calm and self-discipline, and gave birth to three more girls. How innocent are the young children, so cruel."


    As a spoiled girl, Li Shimin has a very bad impression of the Wu family brothers. Moreover, he has personally met Wu Meiniang. She is smart and popular. In addition, she is the first disciple of the Mohist school. Her status is thousands of times better than being a second daughter in the Wu family.


    "Your Majesty, the Duke of Yingguo came to apologize." suddenly a bodyguard reported.


    "Ying Guogong!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes narrowed. Ying Guogong is the title of samurai Yu. Now Samurai Yu has passed away. The title of Ying Guogong has naturally been inherited to Wu Yuanqing, the eldest son of the Wu family. Naturally, the newcomer is Wu Yuanqing, the new Duke of Ying.


    "Ask him to come in!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    After all, the martial arts family was also the hero of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and made great contributions. However, when the Xuanwu clan changed, the old fox, the warrior Yu, seized the opportunity to hide in Shu, which was not helping each other. After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, although he gradually alienated, he still had to remember some old feelings.


    "When Wu Yuanqing, the Minister of Wei, visited his majesty, his brother-in-law committed a heinous crime and even participated in the production of fake silver tickets to frame his son-in-law. He really deserved to die." after Wu Yuanqing saw Li Shimin, he asked for a crime directly and neatly, without the slightest excuse.


    "Oh! So this matter has nothing to do with Yingguo government?" Li Shimin said expressionless.


    "My father has just died, and Yuanqing is still filial to his father. How can he do such unfilial acts?" Wu Yuanqing denied.


    "What''s the matter with Yang''s mother and daughter? Now the Manchu officials impeach Ying''s government and openly drive her stepmother out of the house." Li Shimin asked.


    Wu Yuanqing suddenly changed his face and said, "this is what Wu yuanshuang did. After learning that, Wei Chen has severely punished him and personally came to the door to invite his mother and sister back. Unfortunately, my sister was accepted as an apprentice by mohou. She is arrogant and unwilling to return, so let''s stop!"


    Wu Yuanqing directly reversed black and white. He did invite Yang''s mother and daughter back, but it was only due to the gossip of the whole city and the influence of Merton. If Merton didn''t intervene, I''m afraid Yang''s mother and daughter would be dead or alive, so he didn''t bother to ask.


    "So, all the mistakes were made by Wu yuanshuang." Li Shimin sneered.


    Wu Yuanqing brazenly said, "it''s the martial family''s lax tutoring. Please punish him. The government of Yingguo has nothing to say."


    It has to be said that Wu Yuanqing really has a thick face and a dark heart. He even directly abandoned Wu yuanshuang.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath, endured his disgust, and said sternly, "in that case, Wu yuanshuang was unfilial to his stepmother, made fake silver notes to deceive the people, and killed people in the manor outside the city. It was a great crime and should be executed."


    Wu Yuanqing trembled all over and quickly bowed his head and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, in view of my father''s achievements, let him go lightly and spare his life."


    Although he put the blame on Wu yuanshuang, he couldn''t sit and watch Wu yuanshuang die, otherwise he would alienate his men.


    Li Shimin resisted the anger in his heart and said, "however, I really can''t bear to let the Duke of Yingguo''s bones not cold, and Wu Meiniang pleaded for him. For the time being, I will spare Wu yuanshuang''s life and exile to Zhenzhou. I won''t be pardoned in case of amnesty."


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Wu Yuanqing relaxed heavily. Although he was exiled to Zhenzhou, there was no big problem to preserve Wu yuanshuang with the strength of Ziqian family.


    "If you want to thank Wu Meiniang, she doesn''t want her father''s bones to be cold, and then her brothers and sisters to hurt each other, otherwise I can''t take advantage of Wu yuanshuang." Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    "Thank you, your majesty. I''m going to leave!" Wu Yuanqing bowed down and left,


    "The Ziqian family is really cool and thin!" Li Shimin couldn''t help humming coldly. Although the Ziqian family is very helpful to the success of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin doesn''t like it. The family affection among the royal family is very cold and thin, and the Ziqian family is the same. After all, even the person with the coldest family affection won''t like another person with the same cold and thin,


    Out of the palace, there was a carriage waiting there. Seeing Wu Yuanqing coming out, shopkeeper Yao quickly got out of the carriage, opened the curtain, and respectfully said, "please, master!"


    Wu Yuanqing looked at shopkeeper Yao and said, "are you so sure that I have abandoned my brother and passed the test of Ziqian family?"


    Shopkeeper Yao smiled and said, "I''m afraid no one in the world can refuse the position of Ziqian''s owner."


    Shopkeeper Yao said, but a shadow flashed in his heart. If there was such a person, I''m afraid it was the non Mo family.


    "Tell the old stuff that their condition has been reached, and I has the final say for the children''s money home." Takeshimoto Keiro''s voice was on the carriage, and the shopkeeper followed.


    "This is the account book of Ziqian''s family. Please open your eyes!" shopkeeper Yao respectfully said in the carriage.


    Wu Yuanqing took it over, opened it and saw the wealth in the account books. He was so excited that he couldn''t help himself. He couldn''t help laughing and said, "before his father died, he passed the power of Ying Guogong to me, but he passed the wealth of Ziqian''s family to his second brother, but I didn''t know that I wanted both power and wealth."


    Looking at Wu Yuanqing''s greedy expression, shopkeeper Yao sighed in his heart. I''m afraid the big boss is the natural son Qian family.


    "The young master is wise and powerful. He just takes back what should belong to him." shopkeeper Yao complimented.


    "Let''s go! Go to Mo mansion!" Wu Yuanqing said contentedly.


    "Go to Mo mansion?" shopkeeper Yao exclaimed.


    "Why, you didn''t reveal the news of Wu yuanshuang to the Mohist school!" Wu Yuanqing frowned.


    Shopkeeper Yao shook his head and said, "of course not. Up to now, the Mohist family thought it was my son Qian family who was greedy for money. That''s why they sold the second owner. But my son Qian family has just broken with the Mohist family. I''m afraid to go now......"


    The Mohists have just seized the handle of Ziqian''s family in making fake silver tickets. How can they treat them.


    "My young master is going to his sister. Will the Mohist son still disappear?" Wu Yuanqing said.


    "Second young lady, but didn''t the second young master drive the second young lady out of the Wu house?" shopkeeper Yao hesitated.


    Wu Yuanqing sneered: "that''s because the former Wu Meiniang was worthless. However, the current Meiniang is the eldest disciple of the Mohist school. Her status is naturally different. Naturally, she has value, so it''s worth attracting the Zi and Qian family. It''s not a problem to let me be a close brother with deep feelings."


    It has to be said that Wu Yuanqing is indeed shameless. When Wu Meiniang was worthless, she abandoned her like walking on the ground. Now Wu Meiniang was accepted by Merton as a disciple and had more opportunities to run the Mohist school. He immediately came to please. Of course, he was not kind. He even planned to control Wu Meiniang and embezzle the Mohist art and wealth after helping Wu Meiniang run the Mohist school, Otherwise, how could he be willing to please her.


    "The owner is wise!" shopkeeper Yao said with deep admiration.

 Chapter 865

    Soon, a luxurious carriage stopped leisurely outside the Mo mansion.


    "Please also tell me that Wu Yuanqing asked to see Lord mo." Wu Yuanqing arched his hand.


    "It''s Ying Guogong! Please have a rest in the lobby. I''ll report it to the young master." Fu Bo said politely when he saw Wu Yuanqing.


    After Wu Meiniang came back, the scandal of the Wu family could not hide from Fubo, but Wu Yuanqing was a Duke after all. According to the title, he was one level higher than the Marquis of Merton! Naturally, the Mo family can''t be rude.


    "Please drink tea at the invitation of the Duke." Fubo brought two cups of tea.


    "Fu Bo, you''re welcome!" Wu Yuanqing said politely, without the ruthlessness of driving Yang''s mother and daughter away that day.


    "What''s the wind today? It''s blowing Ying Guogong." Merton happened to appear at the door, Lang said.


    "Lord Mo turned to Yuan Qing, and sister she worshipped him as a teacher. Speaking of it, Yuan Qing should also perform his disciples'' rites when he saw Lord Mo!" unexpectedly, Wu Yuanqing didn''t have the cheek to put his posture very low.


    Merton couldn''t help but draw his face and said, "Ying Guogong is too cruel to mo. according to the title, Ying Guogong is the title of the Duke of the state, which is one level higher than the Marquis of mo. according to your status, you are the elder brother of Meiniang. The so-called elder brother is like the father. Therefore, it is most appropriate for you and me to perform the rites of the same generation.


    "That little brother has seen brother mo." Wu Yuanqing climbed up along the pole.


    "No, according to age, how old should Ying Guogong be? Mo should call Ying Guogong brother." Merton waved his hand.


    They called each other brothers for a while, and then they sat down hypocritically.


    "It''s the so-called going to the three treasures hall without anything. Brother Wu came here today. I don''t know what''s important." Merton said positively. Now the Mohists have just captured all the personal stolen goods from Wu yuanshuang, and Wu Yuanqing''s purpose is obviously impure.


    Wu Yuanqing suddenly showed a trace of warmth on his face and said: "today, Wu came to visit her sister. Now we have been separated for a long time, but we haven''t seen one side. It''s really my dereliction of duty as a brother. I wonder if you can make it convenient for me to get together with my brother and sister."


    Merton laughed and said, "brother Wu visited your sister. How can Mo stop him? It''s just that brother Wu came. Meiniang went out yesterday. She felt cold and was resting. It''s really inappropriate to meet. Please forgive me."


    Merton deliberately pointed out that Wu Meiniang went out yesterday to make Wu Yuanqing interesting, but he didn''t expect Wu Yuanqing''s face to show an anxious look, suddenly stood up and said anxiously: "what, Mei Niang is ill. I''ll go and ask a famous doctor for treatment for my brother."


    Morton was stunned. He quickly grabbed Wu Yuanqing, who was trying to leave, and said, "it''s not necessary. You need to count famous doctors. Naturally, you should be a count ink hospital. I''ve asked Mo Wu to give Mei Niang a pulse. It''s no big deal."


    Wu Yuanqing took a long sigh of relief and said with a worried look: "Mo Wu of the Mohist family is an expert of Chinese miracle doctor and has the true legend of sun miracle doctor. With him, Wu is naturally at ease. Let her sister have a good rest. It''s a long time for my brother and sister to meet!"


    "Brother Wu''s wishes will certainly be conveyed to Meiniang." Morton arched his hand.


    Wu Yuanqing nodded and continued: "in fact, when Wu came here today, in addition to meeting with shemei, there is another thing to apologize to mohou."


    "Excuse me?" Morton moved in his heart and immediately knew that the business was coming. He didn''t believe that Wu Yuanqing would come to visit Wu Meiniang in consideration of his brothers and sisters.


    "My younger brother Wu yuanshuang was young and ignorant. He was bewitched by servants. He even imitated the silver note and committed a heinous crime, which made the Mojia village suffer huge losses. Today, Wu came specially to make an apology to the Marquis of mo." Wu Yuanqing said directly.


    "Compensation?" Merton''s mouth could not help but show a trace of sarcasm: "do you know how much the Mojia village lost because of the counterfeit silver ticket case?"


    Wu Yuanqing said confidently, "as far as I know, brother Mo paid 20000 Guan in advance for the fake silver ticket case. This is a 20000 Guan bill. Please accept it for the time being. In addition, there are many banks and industries under my brother''s name. As long as Hou Mo is willing to turn fighting into friendship, Wu guarantees to hand it over to the Mohists completely."


    "Oh!" Merton took the bill, saw the latest date on the bill, looked at Wu Yuanqing with a smile and said, "I''ll take the twenty thousand yuan bill, even for other industries and banks. It is said that Ziqian family is addicted to money and never wants to lose anything. Brother Wu is an eye opener for my younger brother today!"


    Wu Yuanqing stopped pretending when he saw that Merton had made it clear. He laughed and said: "Everyone in the world thinks that the Zi Qian family is stingy and greedy. They don''t let go of a penny, but they don''t know that the Zi Qian family has never been soft in the face of real interests. Even if they spend a lot of money, they don''t hesitate. For example, their late father supported Li Tang with his family''s wealth. This is the status of the Wu family now. If they don''t sacrifice their capital, they can''t pursue profits. Mohou should understand this better than anyone."


    "Oh!" Morton looked at Wu Yuanqing in surprise and said, "so Ziqian family has seen greater interests in the Mohist family and is ready to make this heavy note on the Mohist family. I don''t know what Mohist ink skills have entered the eyes of Ziqian family.


    Wu Yuanqing shook his head and said: "It''s not ink, it''s a bank! If you''re not polite, banks should be the industry of Ziqian family. As long as Ziqian family develops step by step, one day the bank will come into being naturally. However, I didn''t expect that such an amazing person as mohou suddenly appeared, surpassing Ziqian family to set up the bank out of thin air."


    Merton was shocked. He didn''t expect that Wu Yuanqing, who is despised by the world population, should have such vision and insight. The emergence of the bank is not the product of the later son Qian family. If Merton didn''t appear in the Mohist family, I''m afraid the son Qian family would continue to develop, from the bank to the bank.


    "Now all schools of thought are like sailing against the current. If they don''t advance, they will retreat. The Ziqian family is unwilling to give up the high interest of printing money. Even if they give the Ziqian family another thousand years, I''m afraid they can''t form a bank." Merton shook his head. In history, the Ziqian family also made a living by printing money in the Qing Dynasty. The only development was to count the ticket numbers. Finally, it withered quickly under the impact of foreign banks.


    Wu Yuanqing nodded without hesitation and said, "yes, this is the weakness of Ziqian family, but the emergence of the bank is like a catfish entering the fish pond. Under the catfish effect, Ziqian family can''t continue to be comfortable. Please also invite mohou yingyunzi Qian family to participate in banking business."


    The catfish effect was the first shot of mojiazi''s fame in Chang''an City, which opened the era of eating live fish in the Tang Dynasty. However, since then, mojiazi''s catfish has stirred the wind and rain in hundreds of homes, and now it has stirred up the Ziqian family, which is out of touch with the wind, cattle and horses.


    If it was someone else, the Ziqian family was sure to buy it with money, but met the Mohist school who loved the concept of non attack. Almost all the previous set of Ziqian family failed. Coupled with the broad prospects of the bank, the Ziqian family was even more excited. However, the Ziqian family failed to seize it secretly. Now it is only obvious.


    "Ziqian family also wants to set up a bank. I''m afraid there''s no need to ask Mohist family!" Merton sneered.


    Wu Yuanqing said bluntly, "if you only talk about money and manpower, the Ziqian family naturally does not lack, but the Ziqian family lacks a secret skill, anti-counterfeiting secret skill."


    "Anti counterfeiting secret skills!" Merton immediately shrunk his eyes and said, "you should not have forgotten the fake silver ticket case! You think the Mohists will give the anti-counterfeiting secret skills of silver tickets to Ziqian''s family. Wouldn''t it be more convenient for Ziqian''s family to print fake silver tickets."


    "Brother Mo is joking. Since the Ziqian family came here with an enlightened cloth, it would not do such a thing." Wu Yuanqing flattered and said with a smile, "in order to show the sincerity of the Ziqian family, the Ziqian family is willing to spend a lot of money. As long as the mohou is willing, the price is easy to say."


    "Sorry, Mohist anti-counterfeiting skills will not be sold." Merton refused directly.


    Wu Yuanqing said with a confident smile: "mohou doesn''t have to refuse in such a hurry. It''s not too late to listen to Ziqian''s quotation. It''s a one-time price, 100000 yuan!"


    "A hundred thousand passes!" Morton raised his head in surprise. If it was spread, it would certainly cause an uproar. I''m afraid it''s the highest secret skill in history.


    "If it''s any other secret skill, I''ll gladly agree. Even the most precious glass secret skill of Mohist school is OK, but the anti-counterfeiting secret skill doesn''t work. Mohist school won''t sell it no matter how much money." in the face of such heavy money, Merton refused without hesitation.


    "Ah!"


    Wu Yuanqing, who was originally determined to win, immediately showed an unbelievable look. It was a hundred thousand, but the Mohist family refused without hesitation. Moreover, once the Zi Qian family printed the silver ticket themselves, they could check and balance with the Mohist family. If the Zi Qian family printed the Mohist silver ticket, the Mohist family could also print the Zi Qian family silver ticket in retaliation. Naturally, neither side dared to easily destroy the Great Wall.


    However, Merton still shook his head firmly. After all, he knew that once Ziqian family controlled the anti-counterfeiting secret technology, he could print paper money without restrictions. However, he did not know that in history, when the first generation of paper money came out, many merchants indiscriminately distributed paper money, resulting in heavy losses to countless people, and paper money became a pile of waste paper, He did not believe that the greedy money family would resist such a huge temptation and seriously develop banking business.


    In the future, if Ziqian''s silver ticket explodes, I''m afraid it will be damaged not only by the people all over the world, but also by Mojia village.


    "In that case, the Mohist school might as well cooperate with the Ziqian family. The Mohist school has anti-counterfeiting skills, while the Ziqian family has countless money and banks all over the world. As long as you and I join hands, the bank outlets will be all over the world. At that time, the merchants'' flying money can walk around the world by saving money in one company." Wu Yuanqing was impassioned, Depict a moving prospect.


    "This can be done only by Ziqian family! There is no need to cooperate with Mohist family at all! Moreover, only ordinary anti-counterfeiting technology is needed, and flying money can not be imitated at all." Merton said mercilessly.


    "Therefore, this is the sincerity of the cooperation between Ziqian family and Mohist family." Wu Yuanqing said sincerely.


    Merton shook his head and said, "although the Mohists claim to cooperate with a hundred, they never intervene in the affairs of the other hundred. The two sides maintain their independence. Brother Wu''s kindness is led by mo. the Mohists never thought of dominating the banking business. If the Zi Qian family wants to get involved in the bill business, the Mohist welcomes it. If the Zi Qian family wants to issue silver notes, the first thing should be to report to the imperial court."


    "So, mohou is determined not to cooperate with Ziqian family?" Wu Yuanqing stared at Merton and said word by word.


    Merton took a sip of tea and said, "the emergence of the bank is to serve the development of the Mohist School and will not be mixed with other disputes. If the Zi Qian family wants to wash the white, it should show its sincerity to the chaotang. I think it is not difficult to take the position of the national Duke."


    Merton directly pointed out Wu Yuanqing''s intention. At that time, Wu Yuanqing was embarrassed. Zi Qian''s family was really greedy for bank business, but they were unwilling to walk in the open and accept the supervision of the imperial court. Only then did they prepare to use the banner of the Mojia village bank, but they didn''t expect that the Mojia Zi would refuse so neatly.


    "Thank you for your advice, Mr. Wu!" Wu Yuanqing said politely when he heard Merton''s crisp refusal, even though he was angry.


    "Brother Wu, take your time. Please forgive Mo for not sending you far away." Morton arched his hand.


    "Please come here, Duke!" Fubo stretched out his hand and led Wu Yuanqing out of the Mo mansion.


    It was not until Wu Yuanqing boarded the carriage that his face turned blue and said with hatred: "the MOH family is simply ignorant of good and bad."


    He personally came to the door, apologized, and offered enough sincerity to cooperate with the Mohist school. However, the Mohist School refused mercilessly, which made him feel extremely humiliated when he just controlled the money family.


    "Boss, what should I do now?" manager Yao frowned in the carriage.


    "Immediately contact other Zi Qian''s family and tell them that if we don''t unite again and wait until the Mojia Village Bank continues to expand, they will only have a dead end." Wu Yuanqing said sternly.


    "What about Mohism? Can we just let Mohism continue to develop!" shopkeeper Yao frowned.


    Wu Yuanqing raised a Kaiyuan Tongbao and sneered, "of course it''s impossible. Since the Mohist son doesn''t appreciate it, let him see the real strength of the Qian family. You know, in the Tang Dynasty, the real money is not silver, but copper!"

 Chapter 866

    "Young master, if you refuse the Ziqian family so much..."


    After seeing Wu Yuanqing off, Fubo returned to the house and saw Merton in the living room meditating. He couldn''t help worrying. Ziqian family is one of the oldest hundred, and its power is deep-rooted. I''m afraid the opposition between Mohism and it will not benefit much.


    "It doesn''t hurt!" Merton shook his head. "The reason why I directly rejected the Ziqian family is that the Ziqian family are mercenaries and are not credible. It''s normal to go back on their own for the sake of interests in the future.


    Second, the Mohists and Ziqian''s family have different ways. Ziqian''s family releases printed money to suck blood from the people all over the world and make money by any means. The bank loan of Mojia village is to let merchants and workshops tide over difficulties and benefit the people, merchants, the imperial court and Mohists. Sometimes they don''t even care about money and income. If they cooperate with Ziqian''s family, they will one day Make trouble. "


    Fauberraux nodded thoughtfully.


    "Of course, there''s another reason, that''s Mei Niang!" Merton said with a trace of firmness in his eyes. Meiniang lives in a family without family affection and is persecuted by the Wu family. If he cooperates with Wu Yuanqing, where will he buy her?


    "Mei Niang! I heard from other Mohist children that Mei Niang has been unhappy since she came back from outside the city." Fubo frowned. Naturally, he also knew about the Wu family. Mei Niang thought it was after her father died, but she didn''t expect that even the father she had always admired was a fickle man, which made her collapse.


    "Well, I''ll enlighten him myself another day," Merton said indifferently. Although Wu Meiniang is young, she is a famous empress in later generations. He doesn''t think this problem can knock her down.


    However, what he didn''t expect was that he hadn''t gone to find Wu Meiniang, but Wu Meiniang found it herself.


    "Apprentice, see you master!" Wu Meiniang''s tight little face solemnly saluted in the study.


    "It''s Mei Niang. What''s the matter with finding a teacher?" Merton said with a smile. He knew that Wu Mei Niang was in a bad mood these days and didn''t leave any schoolwork.


    Wu Meiniang was about to stop talking, and finally clenched her teeth and said, "I came here today to say goodbye to the master."


    "Why?" Murton exclaimed. He never thought that he should say such words from Wu Meiniang''s mouth.


    Wu Meiniang said painfully, "my disciple was born in the Ziqian family. My father and brothers are all from the Ziqian family. The Ziqian family is notorious, while the Mohist family has a clear reputation for thousands of years. If it is reported that the Mohist family accepts Meiniang as an apprentice, I''m afraid it will tarnish the reputation of the Mohist family."


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "you can''t ruin the reputation of Mohism. Being a teacher is not afraid. What are you afraid of?"


    Wu Mei Niang bowed her head and said, "the master''s love is in Mei Niang''s heart, but the greedy blood of Zi Qian''s family flowing on Mei Niang''s body may not be worthy of this blessing."


    Merton suddenly realized that the reason why Meiniang was so was probably from Wu yuanshuang''s words, because she was born in Ziqian''s family and had low self-esteem.


    When Merton thought of this place, he suddenly showed a trace of love. At the beginning, he accepted Wu Meiniang as an apprentice out of curiosity about the female emperor in history. However, after several months of contact, Merton has accepted the apprentice from the bottom of his heart. Now he has changed Wu Meiniang''s life track, how can he let her repeat the mistakes.


    At that moment, Merton got up and sighed, "it''s my teacher''s fault. I''ve been teaching you Mohist ink skills, but I forget that you''re just a teenage girl and need mental enlightenment.


    "Master, I......" Wu Meiniang shook her head and argued.


    Merton waved his hand and stopped Wu Meiniang''s words. Lang said, "you think you were born evil in Ziqian''s family, but you don''t know it''s a big mistake."


    "Everyone in the world believes that human nature is evil, and the son of the wicked must be evil. The son of the sinner must be guilty. As a teacher, it is confirmed that there is no distinction between good and evil. Everyone is as pure as a piece of white paper when he is just born. What really distinguishes good and evil is the acquired environment and education, not the identity and life experience at birth.


    "People are born with no distinction between good and evil?" Wu Meiniang was stunned. When she learned her real life experience, she always felt inferior for her life experience, but she didn''t think it was a different answer in the master''s mouth.


    "Yes, I want to tell you that human nature is good, but I don''t want to cheat you." Merton sighed.


    Wu Mei Niang frowned and said, "but as far as I know, when people were just born, they would only occupy endlessly. If no one answered, they would cry loudly. When they saw delicious and fun, they would try their best to occupy and refuse to divide people. That was the case when my three younger sisters were just born. My mother said, so was I at that time!


    "In addition, it is said that when the bird just broke its shell, the strong bird would squeeze the thin young bird out of the nest and let it fall to death. However, it is true that humans and animals enjoy the food of the mother bird alone. Why is it not that human nature is evil?" Wu Meiniang said stubbornly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the biggest difference between man and animals is that animals are completely animal, while man has both animal and human nature. Animal nature is the instinct of any animal to find food and make a living. It is born like a baby''s exclusive mother and a young bird''s brother.


    Human nature is nurtured the day after tomorrow. Of course, the best way is education. When people are sensible, they will slowly know how to share and love their brothers. "


    "Human nature and animal nature?" Wu Meiniang was stunned. It was the first time he heard of such a theory.


    Merton nodded and said, "so birth and childhood can''t determine a person''s good and evil, but what really determines a person''s good and evil is the day after tomorrow. Although you were born in Ziqian family, you are influenced by my Mohist philosophy. Whether you become a good person or a bad person completely depends on yourself, not your origin."


    "It''s up to me?" murmured Wu Meiniang.


    "You''ve been addicted to ink skills recently, but as a teacher, you forget your defects in enlightening your mind. Fortunately, as a teacher, I have a three Character Classic taught to you. As your enlightenment book, it can certainly solve your doubts."


    "Three Character Classic? Is there this book?" Wu Meiniang shook her head. Merton''s collection of books can be said to be extremely complete. She has turned over the books in her study many times and has never heard of the Three Character Classic.


    "This is what the teacher did for you. Listen carefully?" said Merton Lang.


    "Disciple, please listen to master''s instruction." Wu Meiniang solemnly performed the disciple''s ceremony.


    "At the beginning of human life, nature is good. Nature is similar, practice is far away..."


    Merton taught Wu Meiniang the famous Three Character Classic of later generations. The Three Character Classic of later generations was created in the Song Dynasty. It is not only catchy, but also a mixture of various knowledge of classics and history. It is a classic enlightenment thing inherited for thousands of years.


    Merton changed it a little, changed the original Confucianism into hundreds, and changed all the history after the Tang Dynasty into hundreds of classic characters, which can be seamlessly connected.


    Wu Meiniang wrote it down with her heart. It was like being enlightened.


    "But didn''t master just say that there is no distinction between good and evil in human nature? Why does the Three Character Classic say that human nature is good?" Wu Meiniang asked after thinking for a moment.


    "Although there is no good or evil in human nature, our education of others will promote good and suppress evil, and naturally advocate the original good of human nature." Merton did not hide something from Wu Meiniang, but said bluntly.


    "I see." Wu Meiniang said solemnly, and the depression in her heart was immediately swept away.

 Chapter 867

    With Wu Meiniang''s heart knot untied, the content of the Three Character Classic spread like a whirlwind in Chang''an city.


    "If you don''t teach, your father''s fault, lax teaching, and your teacher''s laziness..."


    "Jade is not cut, not made, people don''t learn, don''t know meaning..."


    This catchy three character Scripture can be heard everywhere in Chang''an city. All along, Merton''s articles have been the focus of the people in Chang''an City, and immediately spread all over the city.


    Second, the Three Character Classic really contains too much knowledge. It not only has the concept of strict teacher and education, but also is mixed with Confucianism, history, mathematics and Taoism. In addition, in the fourth spring and Autumn period, mountains and rivers, geography, celebrity anecdotes, and Mohist theory mixed with Merton, it is a masterpiece of a hundred schools. Once children read the Three Character Classic, they can not only understand the text, but also benefit a lot.


    Three, the Three Character Classic, once published, directly defines the nature of good or evil that the world has debated for thousands of years.


    "It contains a hundred theories and is easy to understand. This is the best thing for young children to enlighten." almost all the teachers were excited when they heard the Three Character Classic.


    For a long time, the Confucian enlightenment for children is the four books and five classics. Although these books have profound truth, it may be too difficult for an ignorant child to understand these great principles.


    Although the books on compulsory education promoted by Mohism and master Li have selected relatively simple articles from hundreds of people, it is still very difficult for children, and the emergence of the Three Character Classic can be said to be at the right time.


    "In terms of teaching and educating people, we are really not as good as Mohists!" sighed many teachers in the private school.


    They have been conquered step by step since they mocked the Mo family''s weak crown to teach disciples and mislead their children. No one has questioned Merton''s qualification as a teacher.


    The first person to act was master Li, who directly decided to take the Three Character Classic as the Enlightenment of compulsory education and a book that must be learned in compulsory education.


    "This is what Mozi did for the enlightenment female disciple Wu Meiniang. It''s a blessing for my dog''s three students to be taught by Mozi."


    Many citizens with young children suddenly brightened their eyes when they saw the special issue. Mojiazi even used this article to enlighten their disciples. I think there must be something extraordinary. If their children also use this article to enlighten, wouldn''t it be like mojiazi''s personal teaching, and the price is cheap. They can buy a special issue for only a penny.


    Under this trend of thought, the three character Scripture spread rapidly in Chang''an City and spread outward at a very fast speed. Although many private school teachers did not teach the three character Scripture publicly because of their face, when some students came to ask for advice with the three character Scripture, they also answered them patiently one by one.


    In the palace, Li Zhigang had just finished his homework and was preparing to play happily. Suddenly, he saw Li Shimin coming with his hands on his back.


    "See father!"


    Li Zhi and the princes bowed down at the same time.


    "Hmm!" Li Shimin responded slowly.


    "Have you finished your homework?" Li Shimin asked.


    Li Zhi nodded again and again, asked for credit on his face and said, "returning to my father has been completed."


    Other princes also nodded one after another, and a look waiting to be praised by Li Shimin appeared on their faces.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "yes, after you go back, recite this article, and I will check it regularly."


    With a wave of his hand, pound came forward and distributed the ink periodicals to the princes.


    "Three Character Classic, Merton."


    Li Zhi had a bad feeling. When he saw these three words, he couldn''t help sighing. It was true.


    "I''m afraid it''s not more than a thousand words!" Li Zhi''s big eyes floated and couldn''t help crying.


    "Yes, a total of 1145 words, but every sentence is golden and good advice. After you read it, you will certainly benefit a lot." Li Shimin nodded.


    The princes couldn''t help but get dark. They recited only ten or twenty words of Mozi''s poems before. Later, the teacher said, Ma said, it was only a few hundred words, and the three character sutra was thousands of words at once. It seems that Merton was trying to make it difficult for them.


    "Hee hee!" when the princess saw the tragedy of her brothers, she couldn''t help laughing.


    Royal princesses also go to school. When they are young, they usually go with their brothers.


    Li Shimin coughed and said, "this time, the princesses also have to recite the Three Character Classic."


    All the princesses were dumbfounded. Although the Royal princesses also entered school, the requirements were not strict. I''m afraid it was unprecedented to recite thousands of words at a time.


    "This is the schoolwork downstairs of Wu Meiniang, a female apprentice of Merton. Since it is a female schoolwork, your princess is no exception." Li Shimin said sternly.


    "Yes, father!" the princesses said wrongfully.


    It''s night!


    Throughout the palace, there was a loud sound of reading. As long as the younger princes and princesses, without exception, while studying hard, they complained about Merton like Li Zhi.


    "At the beginning of human life, nature is good........................"


    In the Wu mansion, Wu Yuanqing looked at the three character Sutra on the special issue of the ink magazine in his hand and couldn''t help showing a sneer.


    "It seems that the Mohist family sincerely wants to take the second younger sister as an apprentice." Wu Yuanqing sneered. In this way, as long as we can control Wu Meiniang and have this relationship between teachers and apprentices, Ziqian jiaran refers to the Mohist family.


    "Boss, why do you say that?" shopkeeper Yao asked. With the cool and thin character of Zi Qian''s family, how can we believe the so-called relationship between teachers and apprentices, let alone that Wu Meiniang is just a female apprentice.


    Pointing to the three character Scripture, Wu Yuanqing said: "In the Tang Dynasty, the most important thing is birth. Wuwang and Qixing are deeply rooted. Although Meiniang is a teacher of the Mohist family, after all, she was born in Ziqian family. How can she get rid of her identity? At that time, she only needs to use this secret to coerce her. It will certainly have a miraculous effect, but I didn''t expect that the Mohist family son wrote this three character classic for Meiniang to publicize the goodness of human nature without asking about birth Come on, my boss has half the chips in his hands. "


    "Since there is such a deep meaning?" shopkeeper Yao was surprised.


    "Er Mei! Er Mei! You''re lucky to meet such a good master. Unfortunately, you shouldn''t have been born in Ziqian''s house." Wu Yuanqing said coldly.


    Shopkeeper Yao nodded silently.


    "What''s the matter with other Ziqian family?" Wu Yuanqing asked.


    Shopkeeper Yao said, "the letter has been sent out. The nearest son Qian family in Luoyang has agreed. If there is no accident, he should also agree to the young master''s proposal. After all, the profit of flying money is not low, and it is to collect money."


    Wu Yuanqing nodded and said, "hurry up. According to the tip of Ziqian''s family, in a few days, the emperor will go on a trip to Jiuhua Mountain and leave the crown prince to supervise the country. Ziqian''s family, such as me, should take advantage of this rare opportunity to complete the matter of flying money from the bank."


    "The emperor''s trip to Jiuhua Mountain?" shopkeeper Yao nodded in a hurry. Li Yuan, who was supported by the Ziqian family at the beginning, and Li Shimin has never liked the Ziqian family since he will succeed to the throne. If Li Shimin leaves the palace and goes to Jiuhua Mountain, it will give the Ziqian family a chance to breathe.


    "It''s the owner. The villain will certainly do it." shopkeeper Yao promised.

 Chapter 868

    Li Shimin''s trip to Jiuhua Mountain was not a whim, but an early plan. The year before last, Li Shimin announced the announcement of Jiuhua Mountain summer vacation in chaotang. However, an accident broke Li Shimin''s plan, that is, the emergence of Merton making ice with saltpeter.


    To tell the truth, although Jiuhua Mountain is a summer resort, it is also relative. It is only a little better than the hot Chang''an city. However, the mass production of ice makes Li Shimin sit in the palace, which can also be extremely cool. Naturally, he is no longer willing to suffer.


    In addition, the health of empress Chang sun is not good. A large number of ice blocks make the environment in the house very comfortable in summer, so she didn''t go there this year.


    However, in the second year, when the western expedition of the Tang Dynasty was in Tuyuhun, Li Shimin needed to take charge of Chang''an City, arrange food and grass and command the overall situation, but he didn''t succeed.


    This year''s good weather in the Tang Dynasty, the country is peaceful and the people are safe. In addition, the honeymoon between Merton and Princess Changle is Li Shimin''s promise to empress changsun, which makes this trip to Jiuhua Mountain.


    And the time is set in September. At this time, the weather is suitable, the autumn is crisp, and all kinds of animals are fat and healthy. It is a good time to travel and hunt. As soon as the weather turns cold, Li Shimin can''t wait to announce his travel plan.


    Tai Chi hall.


    "Tell your majesty, the weather is good in the Tang Dynasty this year, and there are no natural disasters. Now the autumn harvest has been completed everywhere, and it must be another bumper harvest year." Fang Xuanling is bowing down to report to Li Shimin in the hall.


    Of course, how can the whole world be in good weather? Thanks to the well killing skills and flood discharge area proposal provided by Merton, Datang''s ability to resist floods and droughts has been greatly increased. In addition, with the method of controlling locusts, the three major hazards of agriculture have not posed much threat to Datang.


    "Yes, thank you for your love!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Now the world is peaceful. Naturally, he has sufficient reasons for his plan to travel. Even the most picky Wei Zheng didn''t say anything wrong.


    "It''s not just good weather, but even the yield per mu has increased significantly. With the improved seeds and pesticides produced by the Mohist family, it is expected that the grain harvest this year will increase by at least 20%, and the people of Datang will be blessed." Su Lingnong, a big Si Nong on the side, said excitedly.


    The bumper harvest of agriculture is not the credit of his farmhouse. It is the lifelong wish of his farmhouse that the people all over the world have no worries about food and clothing.


    Even if the officials were not happy with Merton, they couldn''t help nodding secretly. The Mohist school did great credit for such a bumper harvest in the Tang Dynasty.


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, bowed his hand and said, "I inform your majesty that now the Ministry of civil affairs also has good news. Although the farmland in Guanzhong Plain is returned to forest and the cultivated land is reduced, the land tax in Datang has increased year by year, and even the business tax has soared by 50%. This year, Datang is financially rich, the national strength is booming, and the prosperity of Datang is just around the corner."


    In particular, Chang''an and Luoyang, which have the most far-reaching influence of Mohism, have developed rapidly, and the proportion of business tax revenue has increased significantly. There is a faint trend to surpass land tax. This year''s autumn tax has been collected, and the embarrassing state of empty Treasury has been reduced, which has made him a lot of balance in his heart. Don''t envy master Shen anymore.


    "OK!" Li Shimin said with a smile. Now that the Treasury is sufficient and he spends a little more on his trip, no one will gossip.


    Subsequently, the three provinces and six ministries reported this year''s situation to Li Shimin one by one. Of course, most of them reported good news. After all, no one wanted to offend Li Shimin''s interest at this time.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "today''s situation is actually the best situation since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. I hope Zhu Qing will continue to encourage each other and create the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty."


    "The ministers will certainly live up to your Majesty''s expectations!" all the ministers arched their bodies one after another.


    After Li Shimin looked around, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "I''m lucky that after Jiuhua Mountain, there is a prince supervising the country in the hall. I hope you can help me."


    "The crown prince supervises the country!" all the officials were shocked. They had heard the news for a long time. However, many courtiers frowned after Li Shimin announced it.


    "I inform your majesty that the crown prince is young and needs training. I''m afraid he can''t be competent for the important task of supervising the country. Now the brick road from Datang to Jiuhua Mountain has been built. You can go back and forth in a day. Your majesty is as far away as Jiuhua Mountain, and you can also remotely control the court." Du Chuke wrote.


    "Yes! Now the brick road is extremely convenient. Even the storm can arrive in time, which will not delay the government." Wei Zheng also arched his hand.


    "Yes, if there was nothing wrong with the crown prince''s supervision of the country before, now the brick road is convenient, Jiuhua Mountain is not too far away, and the crown prince is still young, please take charge of the government."


    Many officials played one after another and asked Li Shimin to remotely control the government.


    At the head of the hundred officials, hearing the opposition of the ministers, Li Chengqian couldn''t help but bite his silver teeth and clench his fists. There was a trace of reluctance in his eyes.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "At the beginning, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty went to the south of the Yangtze River for three times, but he always controlled the government, which delayed so many important events that the world was corrupted. How can I repeat the mistakes? Moreover, although the crown prince is young, when I was as old as Li Chengqian, I had joined the army and went to Yanmen pass to rescue Yang Guang. The so-called jade is not made into a weapon. It''s time to carve Chengqian''s jade, Otherwise, it will be difficult to become a big thing in the future. "


    "Jade can''t be cut, it can''t be made." the courtiers were speechless for a while. This is the three character Sutra just made by Mohist Zi. Li Shimin took it to the court and openly used it. What''s more, the courtiers had nothing to say to refute.


    "But..." the officials frowned.


    Seeing that all the officials still had doubts, Li Shimin smiled and said, "even if the prince is young, it still has your help. If there is something important, you can inform me. The prince will make decisions on other things."


    "Yes!" the officials bowed down and took orders.


    Seeing this, Li Chengqian suddenly showed a trace of excitement and said, "the child will certainly live up to his father''s expectations."


    Li Shimin took a deep look at Li Chengqian. As the courtier said, the brick road is convenient now. He doesn''t have much problem even if he controls the court hall remotely. First, he wants to spend a holiday away from the government with the eldest grandson queen. Second, he wants to cultivate Li Chengqian''s political ability. As a successor to the throne, he must be familiar with the government.


    "Retreat from Korea!" with Pound''s sharp voice, Li Shimin''s travel and the prince''s supervision of the country were officially determined.


    The court hall has just decided to go on a trip, and there is an uproar in the harem. Li Shimin''s trip to Jiuhua Mountain is bound to be accompanied by Empress Chang sun, and there will be several places for other concubines. None of the imperial concubines in the back palace is excited. After all, they are often in the Imperial Palace, and which one doesn''t yearn for the outside world. One by one can''t help but try their best to please Li Shimin and want to seek places to travel with Li Shimin.

 Chapter 869

    "Empress Chong Hua, don''t embarrass the old slave. Your majesty is lucky to visit Jiuhua mountain this time. It''s not up to the slave to decide who he wants to serve." pound looked at Zheng Chong Hua with an embarrassed face.


    Among the concubines of the Imperial Palace, Zheng Chonghua is the one who wants to travel to Jiuhua Mountain. She has just entered the palace and has not fully adapted to the coldness and loneliness in the palace. She yearns for the outside world most.


    It''s not just the imperial concubine of the Imperial Palace, but also the princesses and princesses who don''t cheer and want to go to Jiuhua Mountain. How can Princess Gaoyang, who loves to play, miss this opportunity? She has begged in front of Li Shimin several times.


    Soon, news came that the quota for Jiuhua Mountain had been determined.


    In addition to the eldest grandson queen, there are only two places for empresses, which are obtained by concubine Yang and concubine Wei respectively, while the places for princesses and princesses are obtained by the children of concubine Yang and concubine Wei.


    Looking at the proud imperial concubine Yang and imperial concubine Wei passing in front of him like a peacock, Zheng Chong Wharton''s face was stiff.


    She has never regretted entering the palace as a concubine like today. Although she is loved by Li Shimin and has wealth, how many concubines are in the back palace? How many opportunities can she get Li Shimin''s favor? For a long time, the emptiness and loneliness of the harem has gradually swallowed up her soul and turned her into a walking flesh.


    Zheng Chonghua couldn''t help looking at the equally Lost Princess Gaoyang. Princess Gaoyang''s mother died early when she was young, and where could she get the opportunity to leave the palace? Suddenly, she felt pity for each other.


    However, in the harem, how could they show weakness? They both gathered up the tears that were about to flow, looked at each other, and immediately left arrogantly.


    Outside the west gate of Chang''an city!


    A luxurious motorcade is lined up neatly, all of which are new carriages produced by Mojia village. This is Li Shimin''s traveling motorcade.


    Since the rise of the four wheeled carriage in Mojia village, the biggest purchasing customer was the royal family, and even directly crushed the Royal Horse warden.


    "Empress mother, you should be careful!" outside the motorcade, Princess Changle and queen changsun said goodbye. I''m afraid Changle won''t see queen changsun for a long time.


    Empress Chang sun comforted her by saying, "my mother is going on vacation. The fresh air in Jiuhua Mountain is very beneficial to my mother''s condition. If you want my mother, you can write to her."


    Princess Changle nodded hard. Although she also wanted to be with her mother, she had been married after all, so it was naturally inconvenient to pass again.


    "When I go to Jiuhua Mountain, you should be honest and don''t provoke any moths!" Li Shimin asked Merton.


    Merton quickly promised, "don''t worry, Emperor. My son-in-law always abides by the law and never takes the initiative to provoke right and wrong."


    As soon as Merton said this, the people around him couldn''t help laughing. Merton really didn''t violate the law of the Tang Dynasty, but did he provoke less right and wrong?


    "I hope you do what you say!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. Then he let Merton go and told Li Chengqian and others.


    "Your Majesty, it''s getting late!" pound warned while watching the sun hanging on the treetops.


    Li Shimin nodded, and the princes and concubines threw themselves into the carriage. With a big hand, the motorcade started slowly.


    "My son''s courtiers send you to my father!"


    "Your majesty!"


    Outside the motorcade, Li Chengqian led his ministers to bow and salute.


    Li Shimin waved his hand from the carriage. With a clear drink, the whole team quickly drove away from Chang''an city with the cry of several princes and princesses.


    When Li Shimin''s motorcade disappeared, Li Chengqian only had time to say hello to Merton and Princess Changle, and led all the ministers back to the palace in a hurry. At first, he said, "these old ministers are simply deceiving people too much." in the Mo house, Li Chengqian said angrily.


    Princess Changle on one side advised: "brother, the purpose of your father''s letting you supervise the country is to let you contact government affairs and learn first, not to let you mess around."


    "I know! But...!" Li Chengqian argued.


    When Li Shimin proposed to let him supervise the country, many old ministers opposed it. He was determined to make some achievements that made all ministers look up to him to prove himself.


    Merton laughed and said, "you think those old ministers are vegetarian! Which one is not an important official from the founding of the country, and each one is an old fox. If you want them to be respectful to you, wait until you succeed."


    "Eldest brother, don''t harbor resentment. The courtier''s move is also to protect you. You have just contacted the decree. If you make a random order and cause trouble, I''m afraid it will leave a stain." Princess Changle said.


    Li Chengqian nodded, but he was unwilling to say, "naturally, the palace will not have a grudge, but it is really unwilling to be offered by all the ministers as mud Bodhisattvas!"


    As the princes grew up, Li Chengqian gradually felt the pressure. After all, the lessons of the Xuanwu Gate were there. Even if Li Chengqian''s crown prince was in a stable position, he still felt a strong sense of crisis and urgently wanted to make some achievements and prove himself.


    "Those old ministers isolated the palace, but there is no way that people can break the deadlock." Li Chengqian suddenly said, but his eyes stared at Merton, who had nothing to do with himself.


    "I!..." Morton pointed to himself in amazement and waved his hand again and again: "no, no, before leaving, your majesty beat me personally to make me feel at ease. I don''t want your majesty to come back and be scolded."


    Merton quickly shook his head and refused. By the way, he shrunk back and said with a firm face.


    "I don''t want you to stand out, but I want you to help me think of an idea how to make some achievements in a short time." Li Chengqian hurriedly said.


    "It''s still a short time to make some political achievements?" Merton exclaimed. Which political achievement was not obtained after years of hard work, just like the political achievement of changsun Wuji in governing the Yellow River. Now it''s only the beginning after two years. However, even so, changsun Wuji still enjoys it.


    "Elder brother is too anxious." Princess Changle also advised her. Rao is a woman who knows that her political achievements can not be completed overnight.


    Li Chengqian said reluctantly, "although I don''t know how long my father will go to Jiuhua Mountain, he will return when it is cold. It will only take about two months. If the father comes back and hasn''t worked, I''m afraid the palace can only do useless work."


    "But in two months, how can you make any achievements?" Princess Changle shook her head helplessly.


    Li Chengqian immediately looked disappointed and said, "it seems that the palace is a little whimsical."


    I''m afraid it''s really difficult for him to make some political achievements in such a short time. If he wants to do something ordinary, he doesn''t need to take risks.


    Looking at her brother''s decadent appearance, Princess Changle couldn''t help feeling distressed. At the beginning, Li Chengqian loved Princess Changle most. Although she knew that Merton had always had tricks, her father had just knocked Merton in front of her. She was both her own brother and her husband. She couldn''t help being embarrassed.


    Looking at the embarrassment of Princess Changle, Merton couldn''t help but soften his heart and said, "it''s difficult, but it''s not impossible to make a political achievement in two months?"


    In any case, he and Princess Changle have met many times, and Li Chengqian has made great contributions. Today, he has returned Li Chengqian''s kindness.

 Chapter 870

    "Seriously?" Li Chengqian said in surprise.


    Merton nodded and said, "you have just held the post of supervisor of the state. Naturally, important departments of the court, such as three provinces and six ministries, should not act rashly, and there is a lot of resistance."


    Li Chengqian nodded involuntarily. The three provinces and six departments are the basic system of the court. The regime confirmed by the operation of two dynasties is that even if he lends him a courage, he dare not act rashly.


    "However, under the three provinces and six ministries, there is another department that is very important and has suffered huge financial losses year after year. If you turn losses into profits, it must be a resounding political achievement, and there is not much political risk," Murton said in a deep voice.


    "Losing money year after year, is it a post station!" Li Chengqian suddenly remembered the official document he had just received today and had an idea.


    "Post station!" Princess Changle''s eyes lit up.


    Good post station! In peacetime, except when the military situation is urgent, the post station does not have much position in the court, and it needs to spend a lot of money to maintain it every year. Merton''s strength is the way of money. If the post station can no longer lose money, it must be a great achievement.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, it''s a post station! The post station consumes a lot of money every year, but it can''t be set up. It has long been a worry for the imperial court."


    Li Chengqian frowned and said, "but how can the post station make a profit? Can''t you let the post station do business?"


    Morton smiled and said, "yes, just let the post station do a business."


    "Don''t fool around, my dear husband!" Princess Changle said in her heart. The post station is an important part of the chaotang hall. It is of great use at the critical moment. If it is used for business, I''m afraid it will be punished if it has no political achievements.


    Merton said with a smile, "this business is an elegant business for my husband. Send letters!"


    "Send a letter!" said Li Chengqian and Princess Changle.


    Merton nodded and said, "I was far away in Tuyuhun. Sometimes when I miss you, I will write a letter secretly, or I entrusted general Su''s grain transportation system to send a letter to you."


    Princess Changle''s face was red and white. Merton looked at her. Her brother was here, and Merton was still here to say this.


    However, Li Chengqian didn''t care about these details, but couldn''t help thinking


    "As the sacrificial wine of the firearm supervisor, I naturally have this privilege. However, those ordinary soldiers don''t miss their relatives? Do you know how difficult it is to send a letter to someone, and how happy those soldiers are when they receive a letter from their family." Merton said emotionally.


    "The beacon fire lasted for three months, and the family letter reached ten thousand gold. Datang''s post station has always been used to deliver official documents and military information. Most of the time, it is idle. If it can be used to let the post station deliver messages for ordinary people, for the post station system all over Datang, as long as it has an accurate address and spends a small amount of money, it can send the family letter to each other, which will be a great blessing for people all over the world "Merton said proudly.


    "The beacon fire lasts for three months, and the letter from home is worth ten thousand gold." Princess Changle listened to Merton''s famous poems and recalled her joy when she received the secret letter at that time.


    "Soldiers far away at the border, vagrants from other places, officials who are officials in different places, and business trips around, tell them that they can feel at ease if they report peace to their families with a letter and share their experiences." Merton said emotionally.


    They nodded involuntarily and were far away from home, so that their relatives could receive a letter reporting peace. This is something many people want.


    "However, in reality, do you know how difficult it is to send a letter home? It''s a natural fluke when you encounter villagers who come home on the way. More people take a round-trip business trip to take the letter home. Not to mention, it takes no more than a month. If you encounter a place so far away from Lingnan Road, it may take two or three months. One Once, it will be half a year. It''s just an emergency. The cauliflower is cold, "said Merton.


    Li Chengqian nodded solemnly. In this era, the traffic is very inconvenient. It''s not easy to get through a letter.


    "If you use the post stations all over the Tang Dynasty, other than ordinary post stations, it takes only more than ten days to travel from Chang''an city to Lingnan road every day. Of course, it''s just an ordinary letter. If you encounter an urgent matter, you can use the express mail of 600 miles, even day and night, and it''s not enough to travel 800 miles a day It''s impossible. You can imagine how convenient it will be. Do you think this business can be done? "Merton said excitedly with open arms.


    Princess Changle nodded again and again. She immediately turned into a fan sister and looked at Merton obsessed. What she liked most was Merton''s endless tricks to turn corruption into magical means.


    "Of course, you have to do it, even if the post station loses more money." Li Chengqian applauded the case and said nothing else, just let the people all over the world exchange letters. This is a great achievement.


    "I can''t lose it!" Morton said confidently, "Let''s calculate it according to the most common letter for a penny. For our 40 million people in the Tang Dynasty, even if one letter per person per year is an average of 40000 yuan per year, how can a letter take up much space and weight? I''m afraid it''s easy to pull thousands of letters on a four-wheel carriage. The imperial court only needs to add a batch of van type four-wheel carriages With an annual income of 40000 yuan, what a cost-effective business it will be.


    Of course, this is just an ordinary three hundred mile express letter. If it is six hundred mile express, the express charge for eight hundred mile express is naturally higher. I dare not say how to make money. There is no problem in maintaining the balance of revenue and expenditure of the post station and no longer losing money. "


    When Merton thought of the famous postal system in later generations, he couldn''t think of the possibility that the post station would lose money.


    "But in this case, I''m afraid it''s not enough to rely on the post soldiers alone!" if there is such a large amount of tasks, I''m afraid the staff of this post station can''t be busy at all.


    "Then recruit people. I have been fighting in the Tang Dynasty for many years, but many wounded soldiers have retired from the army. These wounded soldiers mostly ride horses. They can go to deliver letters and find a way to survive for these soldiers who have made contributions to the Tang Dynasty." Merton said.


    "OK, that''s it?" Li Chengqian said with great ambition.


    In the court hall, the post station costs a lot of money every year. The transformation of the Datang post station system can not only change the current situation of the post station losing money year after year, but also make the people all over the world enjoy the convenience of communication. What a feat. He is very excited to think about it.


    Not to mention that the Datang post station system is perfect. It only needs a little transformation, and it does not involve the government. The resistance is the least. It can be completed in two months. It is a good thing tailored for him.


    "Don''t worry, do you think it''s easy to build a post station system that communicates with the whole country? If you want to be perfect in two months, you still need the help of two people!" Merton shook his head.


    "Please teach me that no matter who it is, the palace will be a virtuous corporal." Li Chengqian took a deep breath.


    Merton smiled mysteriously: "It''s a coincidence that you and I both know each other. One of them is my master, Shen Hongcai, a former doctoral student of the Imperial College of mathematics. The carriage and horse system from Chang''an to Luoyang of the Mohist school depends on Shen''s precise calculation with mathematics, which is efficient and fast. With his help, you can plan a detailed blueprint for the post station system. You can also use this blueprint to persuade the chaotang to support it Love is half. "


    "Master Shen!"


    Li Chengqian nodded. Shen Hongcai is a recognized master of arithmetic in the Tang Dynasty. With his help, he will be able to plan an efficient and fast post station system.


    "What about the other person?" Princess Changle asked curiously.


    Merton said with a smile, "the other person is your benefactor who can communicate with me, general Su dingfang."


    "General Su!" Li Chengqian couldn''t help thinking.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "it''s easier said than done. General Su personally commanded the food and grass escort of the Tang Dynasty to ensure adequate supply of food and grass for the western expedition. He has rich experience. It''s a good blueprint. If no one carries out it, I''m afraid it will become a talk on paper. At that time, it will not only be useless, but also become a laughing stock."


    Hearing the speech, Li Chengqian blushed. He still thought about it too simply. If Merton hadn''t planned well, I''m afraid it wouldn''t be a success or a mistake at that time!


    "Thanks for your advice!" Li Chengqian said solemnly.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "I also have feelings. If there had been a post station to deliver the letter, I wouldn''t have sent the letter secretly."


    Princess Changle''s face lit up and she stared at Merton with hatred. Then she gave up and ordered the back kitchen to prepare meals and prepare to entertain her eldest brother.

 Chapter 871

    With Merton''s advice, Li Chengqian couldn''t sit still. He simply ate a little, left immediately and went straight to the Bank of Mojia village.


    "Post station communication system." in the bank, master Shen''s eyes brightened when he learned Li Chengqian''s intention.


    "Yes, as long as this communication system is completed, it is not only conducive to the government, but also to the people all over the world. Please give me your advice." Li Chengqian bowed solemnly.


    "Your Highness, you are welcome. It''s a matter of benefit to the world. I''m naturally duty bound." master Shen quickly held Li Chengqian.


    Now the Bank of Mojia village has been on the right track and all kinds of businesses have been carried out in an orderly manner. He happened to have helped Merton design the transportation team system of Mojia village before. It can be said that it has all connections, and only needs to apply its expanded nationwide to the postal communication system.


    "If you send a letter one day earlier, those foreign wanderers can receive a letter one day earlier and ask Master Shen to do it as soon as possible." Li Chengqian asked.


    Master Shen thought for a moment and said solemnly, "I will send the memorial to you in three days at most."


    "OK, the palace will wait for you for three days." Li Chengqian nodded. He could afford to wait for three days.


    Soon, the three-day period has come.


    When Li Chengqian saw Shen Hongcai''s memorial before his case, he couldn''t help but start studying it immediately if he got the best treasure. Tomorrow, I''m afraid he will have to answer questions from his ministers, so that he didn''t even find out when he fell asleep.


    "Your Highness, it''s time to go to court." Li Chengqian was awakened from his sleep by the close eunuch. He just grabbed the memorial in his hand.


    "Go to court!" Li Chengqian looked at the memorial in his hand and couldn''t help showing a trace of firmness. Today he will let all officials know that he is not at their disposal.


    In the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gather.


    "Tell your Highness the prince that the autumn gift has been collected. This is the specific statistical amount. Please have a look at it!" Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, offered a memorial.


    Li Chengqian took a look and nodded secretly when he saw that there was a significant increase in taxes compared with previous years.


    "Your Highness, since the autumn gifts have been collected, and now the Treasury is full, should the money and grain owed to various departments be allocated?" Fang Xuanling suggested.


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "it should be so."


    The six Shangshu were delighted. They had not collected autumn Fu before, and they were not financially well-off, but they owed a lot of money and food to the six Shangshu.


    "Tell your Highness the prince that it''s time to perform corvee again. It''s also urgent to build brick roads. In addition, the chaotang has long discussed the Weishui bridge to be built under the auspices of the Mohist school, which needs a lot of money and food. Please use your Highness''s seal." Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, said first that when you perform corvee every year, the imperial court will have a large number of free labor forces, This is the best time to build brick roads. Chaotang only needs to pay for bricks to build brick roads continuously.


    The Weishui bridge is the most important, which is the first large-scale new bridge built by the imperial court.


    Li Chengqian nodded. Weishui bridge chaotang has long been one of the bridges that must be built. Once it is built, it will immediately open the Chang''an north passage. It can be said to be of great significance, but it is a project that must be built.


    "Zhang Shangshu, the Weishui bridge is important, but it can''t be completed overnight. I''m afraid I can''t use so much money and food for the time being. I have salaries for all officials here. I''m afraid this is the most urgent thing." Gao Shilian Lang, the Minister of the Ministry of officials, said.


    "Since the Ministry of rites sent people from all walks of life into the western regions, it is related to the Centennial plan of the Tang Dynasty, and it should not be neglected,......" the Minister of rites told Hu Deyu not to be weak.


    "All the officers and men protect their homes and defend the country. The pay of the officers and men of the whole army is even slower. Now that the weather is about to turn cold, it is urgent to buy something for the northern officers and men to keep out the cold in winter." Hou Junji said.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, the whole court hall was in a mess. The officials of the court Hall who paid attention to etiquette did not care about etiquette at all. One by one, their faces were red and their ears were red. They all tried their best to strive for more funds for their own departments.


    "The benefits of brick roads and bridges don''t need our palace to say more. I think everyone must have witnessed it with their own eyes. The merit of building bridges and roads lies in the present age and the benefit lies in the future. We should give our full support. However, the construction period of Weishui Bridge is long, so we can allocate part of it first." Li Chengqian waved a big hand.


    Zhang Liang immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness is wise!"


    Although the Ministry of works did not get the grant from the Weishui bridge, it was much more than his psychological expectation. It was a credit to be able to build an additional section of brick road, and he retired with satisfaction.


    After Li Chengqian allocated funds to the Ministry of works, he turned to his uncle Gao Shilian and said, "my prosperity in the Tang Dynasty depends on the diligence of all officials, and the salaries of all officials can not be short."


    "Thank you, your highness. I thank you for all the officials." Gao Shilian retired with satisfaction.


    "People who have traveled far to the western regions to participate in the great event of Bo Wang Hou should be greatly rewarded..." with a stroke of pen, Li Chengqian approved the appropriation from the Ministry of rites.


    Subsequently, the appropriations of various departments of Datang were approved one by one. Although Li Chengqian did not meet all his requirements, it was much more than in previous years, which made them overjoyed.


    However, Dai Zhou, who has been silently calculating the total amount of money and grain, can''t help frowning. Now the courtiers seem to be satisfied with everyone, but the actual expenditure of money and grain by the Ministry of household is a lot more.


    "Tell your highness that this is the money and food for our Datang post station. Please give your highness permission." finally, the doctor in charge of the post station stood out with joy.


    Li Chengqian not only promised most of the funds requested by various departments before, but also a lot more than in previous years, which made the driving doctor very happy and thought that the trip must be very smooth.


    Hearing this, Li Chengqian''s eyes flashed. When he took the memorial, he frowned and said, "the post station needs so much money and food?"


    The doctor of the driving Department said with a smile: "the post station is responsible for the food and accommodation of officials and the feeding of horses, which is not a small consumption. Nowadays, four wheeled carriages are popular, and most of the post stations are ordinary carriages. Isn''t it out of court etiquette? The post station specially invited the court to buy a batch of four wheeled horses for officials to take."


    If Li Shimin had been there, he would not have dared to make such a request. However, now that Prince Li Chengqian is in charge of the state, he has the courage to put it forward. Moreover, this move is also good for all officials. He believes that he can certainly get the support of all officials.


    Hearing the speech, Li Chengqian nodded and said, "it makes some sense."


    The driving doctor immediately smiled and said, "Your Highness is wise."


    "Dai Shangshu, how much money and food does the Ministry of civil affairs have left now?" Li Chengqian asked.


    Dai Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "now there are more and more places to spend money in the Tang Dynasty. Apart from the money and food allocated by your highness, the Ministry of the people has little left. I''m afraid I can''t allocate the money and food needed by the post station."


    "Ah!" suddenly there was an uproar and looked at Li Chengqian unimaginably.


    "How is this possible?" the doctor''s smile suddenly solidified on his face. The funds allocated by other departments were very abundant, but there was no money on his head.


    Other Shangshu looked strange one by one. Could it be that the extra money allocated to them was the cost of the post station?


    All the officials immediately looked at Li Chengqian one by one to see how he could deal with the crisis he had just encountered.

 Chapter 872

    However, Li Chengqian was calm, looked at the doctor of the driving department and said helplessly, "what should we do? Why don''t the doctor of the driving Department discuss with other ministers to see if we can let Liubu spare some money and food to support the post station first, and then make up for it when the next batch of taxes come up?"


    "Ah!" the doctor of the driving Department suddenly turned black. In the court hall, the post station was in the most embarrassing situation. It was nominally a military facility and was subordinate to the Ministry of war. However, except in wartime, most of his time was spent serving civil servants, using official documents, accommodation and entertainment, as well as the cost of horses, which consumed countless money and food every year.


    However, what is more helpless is that the official position of the doctor in charge of supervising the post station is very low. He has only five grades. If he goes to the Ministry of the people to ask for money and food on weekdays, he will be blinded by the officials of the Ministry of the people. If he asks him to ask the six Shangshu for money, he will eat the bear heart and leopard courage.


    "Wei Chen! Wei Chen..." the doctor of the driving department, looking at the bad expression of the six Shangshu, was stunned that he didn''t dare to say one more word.


    However, how can the six Shangshu be willing to take the initiative to give up their interests? They are also happy to see the joke of Li Chengqian, a doctor in the driving department.


    "From the perspective of the palace, Datang post station costs a lot every year, but it''s not necessary at all!" Li Chengqian suddenly said.


    "No need?" the doctor of the driving department was stunned. He looked at Li Chengqian foolishly, and suddenly a bad feeling rose in his heart. Is it because his Highness the prince is dissatisfied with the post station?


    "Your Highness doesn''t know. Although the post station costs a lot, it is an indispensable department for the Tang Dynasty to pass military information and official documents between the government." Gao Shilian, with gray hair, frowned. In his opinion, if he doesn''t come forward to remedy it, his grandnephew may make more and more jokes.


    "What Lord Gao said is very true. There are post stations since ancient times. You can''t easily depose them!" cried the doctor of the driving department.


    "Who says to depose the post station? Of course, the palace knows that the post station cannot be moved lightly, but there is no doubt that the huge annual cost of the post station has dragged down the government. If the post station can be self-sufficient, how much money can it leave for the court?" Li Chengqian said leisurely.


    "Self sufficiency!" the doctor of the driving department was stunned. Only then did he hear that Li Chengqian had something to say.


    All the other officials were human beings. Naturally, I heard that Li Chengqian had another meaning. I was shocked. Could it be that today''s matter was not the prince''s negligence, but wanted to attack the post station.


    Li Chengqian Lang said: "Datang post station is divided into land post station, water post station and both water and land post station. There are 1639 post stations, 20000 personnel and 8000 horses. The annual food and drink cost is not a small amount. However, it is only used to deliver official documents every year. Isn''t it a great waste?"


    Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, nodded involuntarily. The post station has to raise a large number of people every year. It costs a lot, but it can''t be abolished and can only be raised.


    Other ministers could not help but put down their affairs and listened attentively to Li Chengqian''s speech.


    "Take the Ministry of war for example. Every year, a large number of soldiers serve at the border and are far away from their hometown. If these post stations can deliver messages for the whole army and let them exchange letters with their relatives, it will not reassure their relatives, but also make the military calm and make the border officers and soldiers serve the country as one." Li Chengqian turned to Hou Junji.


    Hou Junji nodded solemnly, which is really a good idea.


    "In addition to the officers and soldiers, as far as I know, many foreign students come to study in Chang''an city. They have the opportunity to go home every field holiday. If the post station also communicates for them and gives peace to distant relatives, how warm it is." Li Chengqian looked at Kong Yingda, the son of the state, offering wine.


    Kong Yingda also nodded silently.


    "There are also officials who have gone to various places, merchants who do business abroad, and farmers who are now serving corvee abroad,........." Li Chengqian cited one by one and brought together the benefits of post station communication. Manchu officials couldn''t help thinking. According to Li Chengqian, it looks like this post station has many benefits.


    "But in this way, the post station will be more busy, and I''m afraid it will require more funds." the doctor in the driving Department shook his head again and again.


    Li Chengqian nodded one after another and said, "naturally, the post station can''t send letters to the people for free. Of course, we can''t pursue profits like businessmen. After all, our purpose is to subsidize the cost of the post station. From the perspective of our palace, it''s better to send a letter for a penny, or if it''s overweight, we can add it as appropriate."


    "We have a plan for the post station here. We just need to follow this plan. We can''t guarantee that the post station will not need the court to allocate money and food from now on. In this way, the imperial court will reduce the burden and the people all over the world will make profits. Isn''t it the best of both worlds?"


    With a big hand, Li Chengqian handed Shen Hongcai''s plan to all officials for circulation.


    "It''s urgent for three hundred miles. You can send letters back and forth in January."


    "Six hundred miles, half a month...!"


    "800 Li urgent,..."


    Of course, the 800 mile rush is the most demanding. I''m afraid that according to Shen Hongcai''s idea, it can only be implemented temporarily in the place where the brick road is built, and other places are tentative.


    All officials looked at the rational plan in their hands and nodded in their hearts. This plan is indeed very likely to succeed.


    "Charge according to different speeds and weights, and they are extremely cheap." Fang Xuanling nodded secretly. Li Chengqian only didn''t charge according to the distance, so that everyone in the world can enjoy the convenience of communication. This is really a rare good governance.


    "Six hundred mile express and eight hundred mile express charge higher fees. In this way, the post station has more income, and maybe it can really make ends meet." Dai Zhou nodded secretly. If the post station is really self-sufficient every year, the Ministry of civil affairs can really save a lot of money every year.


    "In this way, I''m afraid there are not enough people in the post station to deliver so many letters." the driving doctor smiled bitterly.


    "As long as the post station has income, I''m afraid it can''t recruit people. A lot of wounded soldiers are discharged due to injury every year. These soldiers can ride horses. It''s no problem to send letters. It''s better for these meritorious soldiers to make a living." Li Chengqian waved his big hand.


    "It should be so!" Hou Junji nodded and agreed.


    It doesn''t need any technical work to deliver a letter. It only needs to be able to ride a horse. As long as these veterans and wounded soldiers can move, they can be competent for this job. What''s more, those wounded soldiers themselves can''t participate in heavy physical labor. It can be said that the job of postman is most suitable.


    "But the post station is a place for the imperial court to send official documents. Now it has to send letters to ordinary people. That''s how it is." the doctor of the driving department was distressed.


    Although the post station is underground in the Imperial Hall, after all, it receives officials and official documents. Now it suddenly wants to send letters to ordinary people. This gap is unacceptable to the doctor of the driving department.


    Li Chengqian said proudly, "my father once taught the palace that the people are precious, the monarch is light, and the country is the second. Now the post station reform and sending letters for the people all over the world are just in line with the saying that the people are precious. How can it be disrespectful. Moreover, this is also beneficial to the post station. Otherwise, where will the post station fund come from? Will the court be in deficit for years?"


    The doctor of the driving department was stunned and didn''t know how to explain.


    "What a fool!" many ministers hummed coldly. Li Chengqian directly shared the funds of the post station among the six departments without leaving a trace. There was little left in the funds of the post station. It can be said that the post station had no way back, so he had to follow Li Chengqian''s instructions.


    Many dignitaries couldn''t help looking at Li Chengqian with dignity. They had to say that Li Chengqian''s skill was beautiful. Although the post station was important, it was of little use at ordinary times. No one stood up for Li Chengqian when he moved the post station.


    In particular, the Ministry of civil affairs and the Ministry of military affairs, as long as the post communication system is completed, the Ministry of civil affairs can save a lot of expenses every year, while the Ministry of military affairs has found a job to settle veterans and wounded soldiers, and naturally supports the post reform with both hands. The other six departments have more funds out of thin air, so they are naturally reluctant to spit out. They can only support Li Chengqian.


    "Your Highness, wait a minute. I believe your highness is kind. It''s just that the post station only sends official documents and military information. It''s a system of the Imperial Hall since ancient times. If you rashly change to send letters to the people, I''m afraid you need to ask your majesty." Du Chuke suddenly proposed.


    Suddenly, has the final say that the minister meet the eye everywhere. In the final analysis, Prince is still Prince Edward. There are no successor princes in history. In the end, the emperor has the final say. If the emperor does not like it, they will be responsible.


    Li Chengqian''s face was cold. He knew that Du Chuke was very close to his brother Li Tai. Before that, he had stopped himself from supervising the country and delayed the reform of the post station until Li Shimin came back. At that time, I''m afraid the post station will be half done and his political achievements will be greatly reduced.


    "Post station communication is beneficial to both the people and the imperial court. If you communicate one day earlier, the people can enjoy the convenience one day earlier, and the imperial court can also reduce some burden. This matter is urgent. If there is a difference, the palace will bear it." Li Chengqian decided.


    Suddenly the ministers were silent. No one dared to touch Li Chengqian''s eyebrows at this time. Although the young tiger is small, it is also cannibal!


    "The old minister is old and frail. I''m afraid he can''t shoulder this important task. I''m afraid he''ll ask his royal highness to choose another talent." the doctor of the driving Department gritted his teeth and bowed his hand.


    He is not unaware of the benefits of post station communication. If he obeys Li Chengqian''s orders and reforms the post station at the moment, if it annoys Li Shimin, I''m afraid Li Chengqian will not have the slightest responsibility. He will certainly become a scapegoat. If he succeeds, his political achievements will be obtained by Li Chengqian, but he has no benefits. Naturally, he wants to get out of this vortex by resigning at the moment.


    "In that case, the doctor in the driving department should rest assured and cultivate his body! Where is Su Ding?" Li Chengqian shouted.


    "The end will be!" Su dingfang proudly stepped out among the generals.


    "You have been meritorious in transporting grain and are proficient in the way of operation. Are you confident in reforming the post station communication and finding a way to survive for our wounded soldiers in Datang?" Li Chengqian shouted.


    Su dingfang hugged his fist and said, "the last general is duty bound."


    Li Chengqian looked around and said, "in that case, general Su will be the doctor of the driving Department temporarily and take charge of the reform of the world''s post stations."


    The doctor in charge of the driving department was black in his eyes. He thought that after he resigned, no one in the court could sort out the post station. However, he forgot that there was a su dingfang who was proficient in grain transportation.


    "I will obey!" Su dingfang said proudly.


    "Retreat!"


    Seeing the figure of Li Chengqian disappear into the hall, the officials were thoughtful and couldn''t help sighing:


    "The prince has grown up!"

 Chapter 873

    "Huang Mei, I deliberately used up all the money and food for my brother. The post station has no food and grass to pay. When I throw out the method of reforming the post station, you don''t know the expression of the courtiers at that time. I have a big long face for my brother this time." in the Mo house, Li Chengqian changed his steady expression in the court hall and was as excited as a jumping child.


    This time, he proposed the method of reforming the post station, which can be said to be reasonable and feasible. In fact, he showed his face in front of all officials.


    "Don''t be careless, brother Huang. You must reform the post station to be perfect, so that everything can be worry free." Princess Changle was naturally happy for Li Chengqian and said a word to remind him.


    "Brother Wei naturally knows that with master Shen''s plan and general Su who is good at transportation, he can certainly do it well." Li Chengqian said proudly. He believes that after the post station, the courtiers will not dare to neglect him any more.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Your Highness, don''t be careless. Anything involving money and corruption can''t be prevented. If the post station is allowed to receive and deliver letters by itself, it needs to formulate more detailed articles of association."


    Li Chengqian got up solemnly, bowed his hands to Merton and asked, "please also ask my brother-in-law to teach me."


    "To prevent corruption in the post station, you must not let the post station collect money by itself. After a long time of thinking, I decided to follow the silver ticket system and design a set of stamp system for the post station. Each stamp is printed with exquisite patterns and the amount of money instead of money. If people want to send letters, they need to buy stamps at the post station first, stick them on the envelope and affix the official seal at the post station. In this way, if there are no stamps, they will die We can''t send the letter. We just need to give the post station as many stamps and charge as much money, so as to avoid the post station''s greed for ink. "Merton thought of the common stamps in later generations and said solemnly.


    "Stamps!"


    Li Chengqian''s eyes brightened when he carefully tasted the usefulness of stamps. Although he was young, he was also young


    Many seemingly good governments are often defeated by corruption. Naturally, his carefully prepared political achievements cannot be stained by corruption.


    "Secondly, it is necessary to prevent the post soldiers from being lazy. The number should be recorded in detail every time they transfer. Each transfer should be stamped with the official seal of the local post station to prevent the letter from being lost. When the letter is sent to the recipient, it should be signed or printed on the receipt and kept for future verification, so as to prevent the post soldiers from being lazy and can be used as the basis for rewarding the post soldiers." In order to be perfect, Merton directly moved out the delivery system of future express.


    "In addition, in order to make delivery more convenient, you can number each county. For example, Chang''an city is the first in the world, which can be 100000, and Luoyang can be 200000. In this way, even if the post soldiers can''t read, you can quickly know the address of the letter by knowing these ten numbers." Merton said.


    "Wonderful!" Li Chengqian exclaimed, which greatly simplified the implementation of the post station.


    "In addition, there are some people who suddenly travel or move and cannot find the recipient. At this time, the original needs to be returned to the sender.


    "Letters are most likely to get wet. The carriage for sending letters must be well sealed and waterproof."


    ¡­¡­


    Merton was full of energy, directly bringing together various measures of post and express in the future, and Li Chengqian was immediately impressed.


    "The Mohist school has the potential to revive today. It really deserves its reputation. I admire it." Li Chengqian sighed. After Merton''s advice, he realized that it is easier to know than to act. There are too many things to consider if he wants to do a good job.


    Princess Changle on one side said emphatically, "this is also the reason why my father asked you to supervise the country. Let you know that it is not easy to govern the world."


    "Brother Wei naturally knows his father''s intention, so he tries to make some achievements." Li Chengqian nods.


    "But there''s one more thing to bother my brother-in-law!" Li Chengqian said with a look.


    "Your Highness, please tell me. If any younger brother can do it, he must be duty bound." Merton said boldly.


    "The purpose of reforming the post station is to save money for the imperial court. However, according to master Shen''s calculation, it seems that it is difficult to maintain the income balance of the post station just by sending letters." Li Chengqian looked worried.


    "Do you think you don''t need money to buy envelopes if you only send letters? It''s also the income of the post station!" Morton said.


    "Ah! Isn''t that a disguised charge?" Li Chengqian was stunned. They claimed that they could deliver the letter for a penny. Why did they charge for the envelope.


    "The envelope is a little cheaper, a few pennies. Besides, the letter is a very private matter. Who wants to be seen by others? What''s the money?" Merton shook his head.


    Princess Changle on one side solemnly nodded. At the beginning, Merton''s letter to her was not only sealed, but also encrypted. It was a good confidentiality that enabled her to have a secret communication with Merton. Otherwise, as a princess with strict tutoring, how could she have the courage to communicate with Merton.


    "But in this way, isn''t that...?" Li Chengqian hesitated for his political achievements.


    "If they want to save more money, or just want to report peace, they can sell postcards directly at the post station without envelopes, and print stamps and stationery on a card. In this way, a penny is enough to pass through the country," Merton said.


    "It''s the only way, but even so, it''s not enough!" Li Chengqian frowned, but how much money can he make by selling an envelope.


    "The younger brother will find you another way to make money. The newspaper of Ink magazine sold for only a penny in Chang''an City, but the price soared ten times when it was transported to other places. In that case, it''s better to give it to the newly established post station for sale. Just fix the price at two cents. In this way, the post station can also make more money." Merton Lang said that he had long wanted to expand the influence of Ink magazine to the whole Tang Dynasty, However, his heart was more than his strength, and the post station reform was right in his mind.


    Li Chengqian''s eyes lit up. If ink magazines were sold by post stations, wouldn''t Cheng Ru magazines follow up. This is not one but two unexpected fortunes. In this way, the funds required for the post stations are almost insufficient.


    As for other express services, Merton did not recommend to Li Chengqian. After all, the post station has just been established, and it is too busy to deliver letters and newspapers alone.


    "Thanks to my brother-in-law''s help, I must thank my sister-in-law again for changing the Japanese palace." Li Chengqian sighed.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "no, remember to give me a set of stamps when you print them. The first set of stamps of Datang is very commemorative."


    Merton couldn''t help smiling when he thought of the fun of stamp collecting in future generations.


    Li Chengqian had an idea and said, "since my brother-in-law said he would print exquisite patterns on the stamps, how can any painter in the world have amazing painting skills? How about giving my brother-in-law the design of the first issue of stamps?"


    "Give it to me!" Merton couldn''t help but be moved and said, "well, I''ll take it as my duty."


    As for the theme of the stamp, he thought about it and decided secretly.


    "Let''s take a hundred schools of thought as the topic."

 Chapter 874

    It has to be said that the post station, as the largest and fastest information transmission system since ancient times, is indeed extraordinary.


    Under the planning of Mr. Shen''s model of Mojia village express carriage and the tough implementation of Su dingfang''s military style, a huge communication system was established on the territory of the rigid post station in just one month.


    "The first batch of 500 carriages and 2000 new post bearers are all in place. The success or failure depends on this one stroke." Li Chengqian said in high spirits in the Mo house.


    There seem to be a lot of 500 carriages. If 500 carriages are distributed throughout the Tang Dynasty, it is only barely enough. Because there may not be too many letters at the beginning, and in order to save costs, this is the limit of investment.


    As for the two thousand post soldiers, they are all retired wounded soldiers, and they all provide their own mounts. There is no limit to carriages, donkey carts and ox carts. They are responsible for sending and receiving letters. Of course, the post station will have corresponding subsidies.


    "Doesn''t that mean you can deliver the letter now?" Princess Changle said excitedly.


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "not yet. After the mailbox in Chang''an city is bound tomorrow, it can be officially put into use, and so can other places."


    "At that time, I hope my brother-in-law''s Ink magazine will help." Li Chengqian looked at Merton''s obsession, looked at the things in his hand, and didn''t listen to her at all.


    If future generations were here, they would surely know that this is a common stamp in future generations, and there is a whole page of stamps in Merton''s hand. Li Chengqian''s face turned black. These hundreds of stamps were painted by Merton himself. What''s strange about him.


    Princess Changle touched Merton secretly. Merton suddenly regained his mind. Reluctantly, she took her eyes back from the stamps and said, "it''s easy to say. My little brother has already ordered the delivery and sales of the ink magazine to the post station."


    Li Chengqian smiled awkwardly and said, "thank you for your sister and son-in-law, but this is not what the palace invited, but to invite Ink magazine to publicize more."


    The post station messenger was just created, but it was only learned in the court hall, but it was unheard of by the people. If the post station was allowed to develop, although Li Chengqian was confident that it could spread quickly, the two months might have passed. Only by turning to the ink journal with the largest circulation can the people all over the world know about the post station communication in the shortest time.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help smiling and said to Li Chengqian, "little sister, you''re a fan of the situation. Even if you don''t say it, ink magazine won''t let go of this big news."


    Li Chengqian was relieved. He smiled awkwardly and said, "don''t you care, brother Huang?"


    "Don''t worry, the post station reform will be successful." Merton said casually, and even focused on the stamps in his hand.


    Somehow, hearing Merton''s casual words, Li Chengqian''s originally uneasy heart gradually settled down.


    The next day, just after daybreak, the whole Chang''an City became noisy again. However, many people with intentions even added an object with full names on the streets of Chang''an.


    "Mailbox!"


    "It is said that as long as you put the letter into it, you can send it anywhere in Datang." a shopkeeper said proudly. When he installed the mailbox yesterday, he specifically asked the post soldiers.


    "Anywhere?" a merchant was surprised and asked incredulously, "anywhere, even a small village?"


    "Of course, as long as it''s the territory of the Tang Dynasty, there will be post soldiers to deliver it to you. Ask where there is no post station in the Tang Dynasty." the shopkeeper said proudly.


    Everyone nodded again and again. The post station can be said to be the most widely distributed department in Datang, which is well known.


    "Post delivery? Is there such a good thing in the world?" many people doubted.


    "This is true. Today''s Ink magazine has already reported it." a scholar solemnly nodded with the ink magazine.


    After several storms, the reputation of Ink magazine has been recognized by Chang''an City, and the things reported by Ink magazine also have considerable credibility.


    The merchant was moved and couldn''t stand it any longer. He immediately bought an ink magazine and studied it carefully.


    "Prince Reform post station!"


    "Three hundred miles is urgent, and a penny is needed to deliver the letter!"


    "Stamp! Zip code, mailbox!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The merchant was very excited when he looked at it. He was in a hurry for three hundred miles. He could deliver it for a penny. His hometown is thousands of miles away from Chang''an city. Doesn''t it mean that even if it takes one day to receive and send mail, it can be delivered to his home in six days at most.


    In the past, when he sent letters to his home, he often entrusted the villagers who returned to his hometown to deliver the letters. He paid money and owed human kindness. He couldn''t get home for a month alone. Now a penny can be sent home in only six days. How can such good things be tolerated.


    At that moment, I couldn''t bear it. I immediately went to the nearest post station to buy stamps, envelopes and stationery, and immediately buried myself in writing.


    "My wife told me that I would do well for my husband in Chang''an City,......."


    Merchants first reported a safe life to their family, and then greeted their mother and children. They wrote for a long time, which was why they reluctantly stopped writing.


    After looking at it carefully and confirming that it was correct, it was put into an envelope, sealed with paste, wrote the postcode address of the recipient, pasted a stamp, even afraid of being overweight, and pasted an additional stamp. Only then did it put the letter into the mailbox with full expectation.


    The number of merchants in Chang''an city was very large. After watching the ink magazine, they couldn''t help but move in their hearts and wrote a letter to their family. Soon, the mailbox on the street of Chang''an city was filled with letters.


    Chang''an sixteen guards.


    The sixteen guards are the most elite troops in the Tang Dynasty. They are composed of elite soldiers drawn from all over the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that they come from all over the world, especially the most strict military discipline. It is a luxury for those who want to go home to visit their relatives.


    However, when a mailbox was hung in the barracks, all the soldiers immediately boiled, especially the two lines on the mailbox made a group of soldiers burst into tears.


    "The beacon fire lasts for three months, and the letter from home is worth ten thousand gold."


    As a soldier, serving outside the border and staying away from his parents is to make his family very concerned. If an officer can naturally send a letter home, where can ordinary soldiers have this opportunity.


    When the mailbox could deliver letters for their families, almost all the soldiers were ecstatic. As for the cost of a penny, everyone didn''t care. They immediately filled the barracks looking for literate people to help write letters.


    "Chief Wu, help me write a family book!" several soldiers begged.


    "Go away, I can''t read!" Wu Chang also took the letter paper and was angry.


    The soldier smelled his face and asked tentatively, "why don''t you suffer?"


    "Yes!" the fifth commander was overjoyed at the speech and immediately took his subordinates to find Shi Chang.


    A moment later, Shi Chang came to the school captain with a larger team. In the military system of the Tang Dynasty, there is no way to be a school captain if you can''t read the military order, otherwise you can''t understand how to fight.


    That night, the 16 guards barracks were brightly lit, and almost every school captain was writing a letter to his soldiers.


    "It seems that General Li''s recruit plan is too correct. Otherwise, who can stand writing hundreds of letters at a time." Qin Huaiyu is writing hard in an ordinary military account in the 16th guard camp. Even the most convenient pen he uses, his wrist is sore.


    At this moment, all the school captains incomparably supported the recruit plan. Li Jing never thought that it was only because of a letter from home.


    However, although every captain complained, everyone didn''t stop writing when they saw the look of expectation from their soldiers.


    When the next day, the post soldiers who came to receive the letter saw a very spectacular scene. All the sixteen mailboxes of the sixteen guards were full. Not to mention, there was a special soldier waiting outside each mailbox, and there were mountains of letters next to him.


    On the same day, nearly 100000 letters were sent out from the 16 guards'' barracks alone. The carriages of the 16 postmen were full of letters, and they still ran back and forth for three times, which was enough to receive the letters.


    Watching the letters being transported away, almost all the generals in the barracks obviously felt that the soldiers under their command had a boost in their mental outlook. These seemingly thin letters, however, placed their thoughts on their loved ones'' hometown. Presumably, when they received a letter from their family, they believed that the generals'' homesickness would surely heal without medicine.

 Chapter 875

    Zhoujiazhuang is an ordinary village near the Yellow River. It has a meager income close to the land every year. Whenever the agriculture is slack, Zhou Liu will sit on the Bank of the Yellow River and herd ducks! All rely on Merton to promote artificial incubation technology, and the ducks on both sides of the Yellow River are almost doubling, and the Zhou family''s ducks are just one of them.


    The whole Zhou family village knows that Zhou Liu misses her two sons most. When herding ducks, Zhou Liu''s favorite thing is to look at the surging water of the Yellow River in a daze


    The eldest son of the Zhou family is doing business in other places. The youngest son joins the army and guards the border. He is often not at home. Only his second son is accompanied. Although Zhou Liu strongly supports his two sons to go out, he can''t miss them if he doesn''t come back once over the years.


    On this day, Zhou Liu was herding ducks along the Yellow River as usual. As soon as he drove the ducks to the river, he saw his second son running excitedly.


    "Mother, the eldest brother has written." the second son of the Zhou family shouted excitedly.


    "Seriously! Who sent it? Thank them again quickly and ask about da''er and san''er by the way." Zhou Liu said happily.


    The eldest son of the Zhou family is doing business abroad and occasionally asks his fellow countrymen to send letters back. Even if his son has paid, Zhou Liu will still thank each other again or leave each other for a meal.


    The second son of the Zhou family shook his head and said, "mother, it''s not from his hometown, but from the courier of the hall."


    "How could this be possible? The post soldiers can not only send official documents to the officials, but also send letters to your eldest brother, a businessman?" Zhou Liu didn''t believe it.


    "My mother doesn''t know. According to the Posthouse, the imperial court has reformed the post station. Now the post station not only delivers official documents for the imperial court, but also delivers letters for ordinary people. Moreover, the price is only a penny. I think my eldest brother learned about it and wrote to his mother at the first time." the second son of the Zhou family explained. Pass the news from the post soldier to his mother.


    "Is there such a good thing?" Zhou Liu doubted, but her son''s letter was right in front of her, and she couldn''t wait to say, "read it quickly!"


    "My mother is on the..."


    The second son of the Zhou family opened the envelope, took out the letter paper and read it aloud.


    The Zhou Liu family is not literate, and the second son of the Zhou family has only studied in a private school for a few years. Fortunately, the eldest son of the Zhou family knows the level of his brothers, writes easy to understand and ordinary greetings, and informs him of his recent situation.


    "OK, your eldest brother is safe!" Zhou Liu couldn''t help crying when he learned the news about his eldest son.


    "Mother, don''t worry! The eldest brother has made a lot of money in Chang''an city with his back to Mojia village. He will be filial to you next time he comes back." the second son of the Zhou family comforted.


    Zhou Liu nodded, suddenly remembered and asked, "since the post soldiers of the imperial court can deliver letters, what about your third brother''s letters?"


    The second son of the Zhou family was helpless and said, "mother, the third brother is far away from the Great Wall to guard the border, which is much farther than the eldest brother. I''m afraid he''ll have to walk a few more days on the road at the same time."


    The mother of the Zhou family nodded. Seeing this, the second son of the Zhou family couldn''t help changing the topic and said, "mother, why don''t we answer a letter to the eldest brother? According to the post servant, as long as we stick stamps and throw them into the mailbox in the countryside, we can send them to the eldest brother. Just when the post servant came, I bought more stamps."


    How many stamps are sold is related to the income of the post station. Almost every post servant is sparing no effort to sell stamps. Just when the second son of the Zhou family knew that his mother missed his eldest brother and third brother, and the price was cheap, he bought more.


    "Write, not only to your eldest brother, but also to your third brother, telling them not to worry about home outside. It''s important to take care of your health." Zhou Liu sobbed with tears.


    Soon, the two letters were completed in the hands of the second son of the Zhou family. Although there was only a simple family length, it placed a mother''s yearning for her son.


    The same thing is also happening in the north and south of the river. Whether it is a small rural courtyard or a gaomen courtyard in a prosperous city, it is great joy for everyone to receive letters from their relatives.


    Report peace and tell missing, so that countless mothers no longer worry about wandering children far away from home, so that the expectations of countless wives can be realized. A small stamp carries a letter from home, so that countless families are full of laughter and countless relatives can get together in space.


    "What!"


    The mighty cries of killing filled the wilderness. Outside the Yanmen pass of the Great Wall, teams of majestic soldiers were practicing nervously.


    Yanmen pass is an important border town. Although the Tang Dynasty has defeated the East Turks and there has been no war at the border for a long time, the practice of Yanmen pass has never been relaxed for a day.


    After a whole day''s training, almost all the soldiers returned to the barracks with fatigue.


    "Zhou Laosan, your letter." suddenly, Shi Chang shouted to an ordinary soldier Zhou Laosan.


    Zhou Laosan was stunned and said, "what''s the matter? My letter has been sent out and how can it be returned."


    "Maybe your letter is overweight and the stamps haven''t been pasted enough!" a soldier guessed.


    Other soldiers gloated and looked at Zhou Laosan. However, some of them wrote several pages of stationery. As a result, they were suddenly overweight. Finally, they just pasted several stamps to pass.


    Shi Chang shook his head and said, "this is not a letter you sent, but a letter from your family."


    "What?" suddenly all the soldiers became a sensation. Their family letters had just been sent out, and Zhou Laosan''s was the first family letter received by Yanmenguan.


    "Family can also write to us?" Zhou Laosan murmured to himself, afraid to buy a channel.


    Shi Chang has no good airway: "it''s natural. As long as there is an address, the ends of the earth can be sent."


    "It''s my second brother''s letter. I must have heard about the post delivery. Take the initiative to send me a letter!" Zhou Laosan asked Shi Chang to help look at the sender''s name. Then he suddenly said.


    Many soldiers immediately looked at Zhou Laosan with envy. They couldn''t help but be moved by his tacit understanding with his family. At the same time, they couldn''t help looking forward to it. How good it would be if they could receive letters from their family and learn the news of their family.


    Fortunately, the soldiers did not wait too long. With the first letter sent to the barracks, the second letter also came one after another.


    The guard General of Yanmen pass found that many soldiers always waited for the arrival of the post soldiers. Whenever a letter from home was sent back to Yanmen pass, there would be bursts of cheers from the whole Yanmen pass.


    The same thing happened in almost all military barracks. Many generals keenly found that since the soldiers under their command sent letters to their families, the homesickness that had originally permeated the military barracks was swept away, and the mental outlook of all the soldiers took on a new look.


    "Your Highness''s post station communication is really extraordinary. If Yang Guang had this skill in those years, how could 100000 children in Guanzhong not follow wholeheartedly, how could they die and die." no less general led with emotion.


    Who could have thought that a small letter could solve the homesickness that makes countless generals headache.

 Chapter 876

    "Burst!"


    No one thought that the post station communication was so popular that it was almost a sensation all over the country.


    Before that, Manchu officials had not been optimistic about the post station, and even the original driving doctor did not hesitate to report illness, but only Li Chengqian insisted.


    One of the reasons why they acquiesced was that Li Chengqian was the prince''s supervisor and wanted to make some achievements. People knew that if they obstructed it, it would only make future emperors resent them. This is how unwise. At least at present, Li Chengqian''s position as Prince has not been shaken at all.


    Second, the post station is a gold eater of the imperial court. It spends a lot of money and food every year, but the effect is not obvious. If Li Chengqian can really make the post station self-sufficient and save a sum of money for the imperial court, they can also get a lot of benefits.


    Even Li Chengqian did not dare to make big moves at the beginning. He thought that at the beginning, there would not be many people sending letters, but only put in 500 carriages first.


    However, what everyone didn''t think of was that the post station communication was too popular. Originally, Datang didn''t have communication demand, but it had been suppressed due to the inconvenience of traffic.


    The post station suddenly began to deliver letters for the people all over the world, and suddenly opened the breach. Almost all the Wanderers far away from their hometown picked up paper and pen at the same time and wrote a letter to their families. The families who miss their relatives far away also picked up paper and pen.


    There are more than a million wanderers in Datang who are far away from their hometown. These millions of letters directly flow into the post station. Only 500 carriages are overloaded and still difficult to turn around.


    Fortunately, under the strong command of Su dingfang, he directly called the carriages originally supplied to officials in the post station. In the post station, everyone participated in sorting letters, which ensured the smooth communication.


    "Tell your highness, the end will send ten men to supervise the post station communication in the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty. It has been nearly two months. It has been preliminarily completed. I am here to reply to your highness." in the Tai Chi hall, Su dingfang came back from the dusty journey and said proudly.


    "Speak!"


    Chengqian''s eyes were a little anxious. Now it''s almost two months. Seeing that Li Shimin is about to return, he must finish the post station before Li Shimin returns.


    The other courtiers were excited and ready to listen. This was Li Chengqian''s first show in the court. All officials also wanted to take the opportunity to weigh the prince''s ability.


    Su dingfang took a deep breath and solemnly said, "after the people all over the world learned that the post station delivered the letter, everyone praised it as a benevolent government."


    Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction. The reason why he strongly supported post station communication was that he saw the benefits it brought to his reputation.


    The officials nodded disapprovingly. The post station communication is a benevolent policy, but it consumes a lot of human and material resources. If the cost of Datang post station can not be solved, the best benevolent policy will be in vain.


    Su dingfang continued: "so far, the post station has received millions of letters, with an average of nearly 50000 letters sent to thousands of households in Datang every day, including about 100000 letters in and out of Chang''an and Luoyang every day."


    "A total of one million letters, 50000 letters a day!" the officials were shocked when they heard this number. This is not a small number! "


    According to Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, there are 50000 letters a day, or 1.5 million letters a month. According to the price of one Wen per letter, it is a full 1500 yuan, and the annual income is nearly 20000 yuan. Although it still can''t meet the cost of the post station, it can save 20000 yuan for the imperial court every year, which is also a great achievement.


    "No, that''s not enough. The cost of 600 miles of expedited construction, coupled with the profits made by the post station delivering newspapers for Mo and Ru, the post station''s monthly income is at least 2000 yuan." Su dingfang said proudly.


    "Two thousand passes! Wouldn''t it be possible to earn twenty-four thousand passes a year?" all the officials were in an uproar.


    The imperial court only invested 500 carriages and 2000 wounded soldiers as post soldiers, which increased the income of 24000 Guan every year. With these 24000 Guan, the imperial court only needs to allocate a small amount of money to maintain the operation of the post station every year. This is great news for the imperial court. What''s more valuable is that the post communication benefits the people all over the world, In particular, the military''s effect of calming the morale of the army has attracted the attention of all officials of the court.


    "Let the crown prince really do it." all officials immediately looked puzzled. Who could have thought that Li Chengqian had done a headache for the court in less than two months.


    "Your Highness, Prince!" all the officials congratulated one after another. Maybe some officials thought that the post station had just opened the mail delivery service, and the traffic increased sharply, but everyone knows that in this era of extremely inconvenient communication, communication can never bypass the post station, which must be an endless source of money.


    Li Chengqian also breathed a sigh of relief. When he withstood all the pressure and gambled on the post station, on the one hand, it was because the plan came from Merton. You know, the plan from Merton never failed.


    In addition, even if this plan fails, it can also gain a good reputation for benevolent government, and he will not lose all his money. Fortunately, he won the bet this time, and no one will despise him as the crown prince again.


    "Retreat!"


    With a wave of his big hand, Li Chengqian withdrew from the Tai Chi hall. When he came to a place invisible to all officials, Li Chengqian couldn''t help dancing excitedly.


    This is his first show in the court. How can he not be excited about such a perfect ending.


    "Prince brother!" suddenly a crisp voice interrupted Li Chengqian''s excitement.


    Li Chengqian immediately stopped all his actions in embarrassment, resumed his serious appearance, and looked sideways and saw: "it''s sister Gaoyang!"


    It was Princess Gaoyang who was waiting for Li Chengqian. Princess Gaoyang held a letter in her hand and handed it to Li Chengqian: "It''s said that the prince''s brother reformed the post station so that everyone in the world can communicate with their relatives. It''s a great blessing in the world. However, the prince''s brother only cares about the people in the world, but he doesn''t remember that his father has left the palace for nearly two months. Gaoyang also misses him very much. Here is a letter written by Gaoyang to his father. I wonder if the prince''s brother can send him to his father."


    Looking at Princess Gaoyang''s resentful eyes, Li Chengqian couldn''t help but have a headache. He knew that Princess Gaoyang usually had a lot of ghost ideas. Now his words gave Li Chengqian no reason to refuse.


    At that moment, Li Chengqian had an idea and said, "sister Gao Yang is right. My father is far away in Jiuhua Mountain. He will certainly miss us. I''ll ask the prince and princess to write a letter to my father and report their schoolwork. Isn''t it the best of both worlds if the Emperor sends a courier to send it?"


    Sending a letter to Princess Gaoyang alone won''t annoy other princes, so Li Chengqian simply wrote to Li Shimin in the name of reporting his schoolwork. Just as the crown prince has the right to supervise the prince''s schoolwork, he can also take this opportunity to show Li Shimin the results of post communication.


    "Thank you, Prince and brother!" Princess Gaoyang said helplessly.


    If you send a letter to her alone, she will naturally be more popular with Li Shimin. If it is mixed with a group of letters from Princes and princesses, I''m afraid Li Shimin won''t pay attention to her at all.


    At present, after the news that he wanted to write to his father came, almost all the princes and princesses were excited and wrote letters one after another. As for the imperial concubines in the Imperial Palace who asked to send a letter, Li Chengqian ruthlessly refused. As the crown prince of the eastern palace and the Imperial Palace, he could not be involved in the slightest. Otherwise, he could not jump into the Yellow River.


    However, this is not difficult for the concubine of the harem. She can''t send letters, but she can borrow the hand of her own children.


    It was night. Zheng Chonghua, who had just entered the palace and had no children, angrily tore his written letter to pieces.


    The next day, when the letters handed over by the princes and princesses to Li Chengqian were obviously much overweight, Li Chengqian pretended not to see them, and without hesitation handed them over to the waiting post soldiers and ordered: "use 600 Li expedited stamps."


    Today, the eight hundred mile expedited stamps of the post station have not been constructed, and the six hundred mile expedited stamps have only been put into trial operation at the place where the brick road is built.


    "Yes, your highness," said the Posthouse soldier solemnly.


    Li Chengqian''s eyes suddenly became deep when he looked at the figure of the post soldier leaving. This time, he carried out the post station reform without informing Li Shimin, and Li Shimin could not have heard any news without stopping it. Now it''s time for their father and son to have a showdown.

 Chapter 877

    "In what year did you hurt your arm?"


    Jiuhua mountain palace. Li Shimin received the letters from the princes and princesses, but focused his attention on a one armed courier.


    The Posthouse soldier said excitedly, "Your Majesty, the villain was injured in Zhenguan four years. In those years, the villain was injured by Turkic cavalry during the northern expedition."


    "You are also a meritorious minister!" Li Shimin sighed. Datang''s defeat of East Turks can be a difficult war. Although Datang has won, it still has a lot of losses.


    "Thanks to the gift of the imperial court, the villain can get the post servant''s position and make a living." the post servant was injured in the war. He could not do labor, but he could easily complete the work of delivering letters with only one arm, and the salary was good. However, he didn''t expect to send letters to the emperor one day.


    Li Shimin nodded and asked about the details of the post station communication carefully. After a long time, he waved his hand to reward the post soldier and let him leave.


    "Post station communication, my prince''s action is really extraordinary?" Li Shimin sighed.


    The eldest grandson empress on one side couldn''t help but flash a trace of hidden worry and said, "qian''er, willful and independent, the post station is an important weapon of the country. Although it doesn''t play a significant role in ordinary days, the key things are of great use, and how can it be changed easily."


    Empress Chang sun clearly scolded Li Chengqian. In fact, she was exploring Li Shimin''s style. After all, Li Chengqian''s post station reform attracted the attention of the whole country. How could she not get the wind.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "what''s the use of saying this now? How can I explain to the whole country if I stop the post station now?"


    Now the whole country has enjoyed the convenience of fast communication. If Li Shimin rashly denies it again, I''m afraid people all over the world will not.


    "Qian''er is eager for quick success and instant benefit. He just wants to make some political achievements. I hope your majesty will forgive me." empress Chang sun asked.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help being silent. He had to say that Li Chengqian really surprised him. He sat quietly and watched Li Chengqian reform the post station, just to test Li Chengqian. Originally, he was ready to end for him, but he didn''t expect such an unexpected outcome. The post station reform was highly praised.


    Suddenly, Li Shimin''s eyes were frozen, staring at the small stamp on the envelope sent by the imperial court courier. On the stamp, he saw that it was Mozi among the hundreds of schools of thought.


    "Do you think this is really the work of gan''er alone? Your good son-in-law can''t get rid of it!" Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    He had always felt familiar with Li Chengqian''s post station reform. Now when he saw Mozi stamps, he suddenly realized that this is not a strong Mozi style.


    When he left Chang''an City, he had warned Merton not to make any more moves, but he didn''t expect that the boy still couldn''t stand loneliness. As a father, he naturally didn''t think there was anything wrong with his son. Merton could only carry the pot.


    Merton in Chang''an city did not know that a small stamp had betrayed him, and he was leading Chang''an city to set off a wind of stamp collection.


    "That damned man stole my stamps!" said a law supervisor in the Imperial College, holding an envelope without stamps in his hand.


    Because the communication business in Chang''an city is too hot, and the imperial court recruits only a limited number of postmen, large institutions often adopt centralized delivery. The letters of Guozi supervisor students are placed in the concierge. You can find the letters by yourself.


    This has caused many people to be happy at sight. When they see the favorite stamps, they can''t help starting. Ordinary people don''t care if they steal and tear stamps. As long as the letters arrive, it''s almost intolerable to meet stamp lovers.


    "Isn''t it just a stamp? What''s the matter?" the companion didn''t understand the psychology of the law supervisor at all.


    The law supervisor angrily said, "I''m short of one. This time, I specially ordered my family to paste this one when replying to the letter, but I don''t know which God killed stole it."


    "Isn''t it just a penny? But these stamps have been used and have no value at all." the companion shook his head.


    The law supervisor shook his head and said, "you don''t understand. This is the first batch of stamps in the history of the Tang Dynasty. Its theme is a hundred schools of thought. The painter is the most skilled Mohist in the Tang Dynasty. You can imagine the value."


    "Yes! It''s said that even mojiazi is also a crazy philatelic enthusiast. Think about it, how can things that can make mojiazi look at be worthless. Besides, even if they are worthless now, they can even appreciate a hundred times over time." another supervisor nodded and agreed. Although mojiazi has graduated from the National Academy of Sciences, for the National Academy of Sciences, Forever is an endless legend.


    "The most hateful thing is that I only need one Lao Tzu to set up a set. Now I''m short of success." the law supervisor said painfully.


    "I still need Confucius and Mozi."


    "I still need Zhuangzi, Han Feizi and Huizi."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Many supervisors lamented one after another.


    "In that case, why don''t you go to the post station to buy one?" asked the companion.


    The law supervisor said angrily, "those post soldiers are hateful. They don''t sell only one. Which one is left for you, unless you spend hundreds of money on a version."


    How many stamps are sold is related to the income of the post station. The post station naturally tries its best to let people buy more stamps. No one cares about buying a stamp for a penny, but spending hundreds of money makes many people hesitate. After all, it''s not a small amount!


    Everyone nodded. Collecting stamps is a hobby for them. If they spend a lot of money, they lose that fun.


    Suddenly, the bell rang, and a familiar sound came. The law supervisor was surprised and said, "the post soldier is coming!"


    Suddenly, a group of prison students gathered around. Some wanted to see if there were letters from their relatives and friends, and many prison students wanted to see if there were stamps they liked. Whether to ask for them or take the opportunity depends on the situation.


    "Ha ha, I finally have Confucius!" the supervisor who got his favorite stamp said with a look of ecstasy. Looking at the letter in his hand, he couldn''t help welcoming the envy of everyone.


    "It''s ghost millet again!" many supervisor students looked at the stamps on their letters with dismay.


    Suddenly, some students were excited and some students were lost. However, one of them collapsed, that is, the law supervisor who was bent on seeking Zhuangzi''s stamps. The stamps in his hand were impressively a landscape painting.


    "How could this happen? Are these still stamps? Aren''t all stamps from all over the world?" the law supervisor roared with the landscape stamps in his hand.


    The Posthouse soldier looked at the furious law supervisor and said with a smile, "don''t be angry, scholar. The stamps of hundreds of schools you mentioned are the first generation of stamps. Now they have stopped printing. The landscape stamps in your hand are the second generation of stamps issued by the Posthouse. They are the world famous mountain series of Yan Liben, the most top painter in our Dynasty.


    "Who wants the famous mountain series in the world? I want hundreds of schools!" the law supervisor said crazily. He needed one piece of Lao Tzu to collect one set, but he didn''t expect the post station to stop production.


    "Then you should hurry up. Now all kinds of stamps are out of production. You can''t use one less. Then you won''t have any if you want." the postman pointed out.


    The law supervisor couldn''t help but move in his heart. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he immediately released the wind in the Imperial College and was willing to give two Wen to buy a Laozi stamp, but no one was willing to do it.


    In the next few days, after the first generation of ZhuZiBaiJia series stamps stopped printing, the whole Chang''an city immediately set off a wave of stamp collection. The price of ZhuZiBaiJia stamps directly increased, especially the price of the whole set of ZhuZiBaiJia series directly increased by five times, and the supply is still in short supply.


    Moreover, this trend spread directly from Chang''an city to Datang, and the whole Datang soon set off a wind of stamp collecting.

 Chapter 878

    "Give me a set of stamps from all over the world!"


    "I want one too!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The east gate post station of Chang''an was almost crowded with people who came to buy stamps. After the news that the first generation of hundreds of stamps were discontinued, the price of Chang''an stamp market changed three times a day, attracting a large number of people to rush to buy.


    No one expected that the series of hundreds of schools of thought would be discontinued after only one month. This is the first generation of stamps. For the citizens and businessmen of Chang''an who are very keen on business, they can even be sure that the value of this set of stamps will certainly appreciate.


    However, they didn''t expect to be so crazy. In just a few days, the price on the market has increased five times. Rao is so, and there is still no one to sell.


    "Sorry, the hundreds of families series of Chang''an post station have been sold out for a long time, and now there is only the second set of famous mountain series in the world." a post soldier was helpless. There are still many stamps in the original post station, which have been robbed a lot. The rest have been divided by the post station personnel, and there are no extra stamps at all.


    "Ah! It''s sold out!"


    People couldn''t help feeling sorry.


    "No, Chang''an post station is sold out. Some remote post stations must still have inventory. I''ll write the trustee to buy it." many people moved in their hearts and quietly began to act.


    "Then give me a series of famous mountains in the world."


    Those who have a way to buy it, but those who have no way to do so, set their eyes on the world famous mountain series. The world famous mountain series is also the masterpiece of contemporary master Yan Liben and the second generation of stamps. Naturally, it also has collection value. More importantly, the second generation of stamps is cheap. One piece is only one Wen, and one set can''t cost more than one hundred Wen, which is very cost-effective, Naturally, it is suitable for ordinary stamp collectors.


    And even if these stamps do not appreciate, they can also be used to send letters. Anyway, the post station promises that as long as the stamps are valid forever.


    All the people moved and took action immediately. They all bought stamps one by one. After a while, the post station received a lot of money.


    "Brother Mo is brilliant. His stamp collecting style has changed the difficulties of the post station." outside the post station, Li Chengqian said with admiration on his face.


    Although the post station communication is popular, it is just a scratch, and the huge cost of maintaining the post station is still a little worse. However, since the production of hundreds of thousands of series was stopped, the original unsalable stamps became popular, and the sales of the second-generation world famous mountain series also soared.


    Merton smiled proudly and said, "the post station communication has just been created. Not only the court doubts it, but also only a few people accept it. If you want to make the post station communication popular in the world, you can only make it the focus of the world. And the first generation of hundreds of stamps is the most important part."


    Merton''s inspiration still comes from the monkey tickets of later generations. The value of monkey tickets has soared as the first generation of zodiac stamps of later generations, and the significance of Merton''s hundreds of stamps is better than that of monkey tickets.


    "Interest!"


    Chengqian nodded thoughtfully.


    "Yes, how can we become the focus of the world in a short time? Only interests can enjoy it. Only dignitaries and dignitaries can enjoy antiques and famous calligraphy and painting in the former dynasty. Stamp collecting is a pleasure that everyone in the world can participate in. If you can enjoy this fun and get a lot of benefits at the same time, you can have the best of both worlds." Merton Lang said.


    "Not bad!" Li Chengqian nodded approvingly. The popularity of philately driven by the hundreds of stamps series has also led to a sharp rise in the sales of post station stamps, which can be said to kill three birds with one arrow.


    From then on, when people mention the post station, they will certainly talk about the hundreds of thousands of stamps. When they mention the hundreds of thousands of stamps, they will think of the post station. Just like the monkey tickets of later generations, the hundred family stamps will become a symbol of the post station.


    "Fubo, release a batch of stamps on the Chang''an market and let out the wind at the same time. Collect a complete set of hundreds of family stamps at the price of 600 Wen per set," Merton ordered.


    "600 Wen, isn''t that six times the original price!" Li Chengqian smacked his tongue.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is not the real value of the hundreds of stamps. Over time, it is not surprising that the price of this set of stamps has soared to 100 times or 1000 times. Even 10000 times is not impossible."


    "Ten thousand times!" Li Chengqian didn''t know whether to believe Merton or stay away from Merton.


    Merton smiled. The face value of monkey tickets in later generations was eight cents at that time. At the peak of later generations, a single monkey ticket had been quoted for 120000, and the value of the whole page of monkey tickets was as high as 1.5 million. Although the popularity of monkey tickets was a coincidence, as the first edition of stamps, coupled with Merton''s deliberate operation, the circulation of hundreds of series was reduced, Even if it can''t reach the monkey ticket, it''s not far away. It''s not uncommon to say that it can appreciate 10000 times.


    The wind of philately was just Merton''s whim. He was not even surprised by the success of the post station. As the only communication tool in the world, the post station''s success can be taken for granted. Future generations can''t move, connect and trust, but which one is not full of money, let alone only one big post station.


    What really attracts Merton''s attention is the great promotion of the post station to newspapers and periodicals. With the channel that the post station is widely distributed all over the world, the newspaper industry will usher in a real explosion.


    Under the secret guard of the post station, Li Chengqian and Merton walked into the post station.


    "See your Highness the prince and Marquis mo." the head of the post station said in fear. As the head of Chang''an post station, he knew that his immediate boss, the doctor of the driving department, had been dismissed by the prince.


    "Get up! You did a good job!" Li Chengqian waved faintly.


    "Thank you, your highness!" the head of the post station wiped his sweat.


    "Now how many ink periodicals can the post station issue at a time!" Li Chengqian asked.


    The head of the post station quickly and respectfully replied, "now the circulation of each issue of Ink magazine is 800000 copies. The post station has made more preparations and achieved at least one million copies, which will certainly not delay the matter of ink Hou."


    Each issue of 800000 copies will be distributed to the public, and the income of the post station in each issue is 800 guans. Three issues a month will be 2400 guans, and 28000 guans a year,


    Li Chengqian was concerned about the income brought to the post station every year, while Merton was concerned about the post station''s promotion and explosive growth of newspapers and periodicals,


    "How many copies of each issue of Confucian journal?" Merton suddenly asked,


    The head of the post station blurted out the answer: "Confucianism weighs about 300000 yuan per issue."


    Most of the readers of Confucian journals are intellectuals. Private schools at all levels of the government are far less popular than ink journals among the people. The post station also ushered in a big explosion for Confucian journals. The sales volume of each issue is 300000, but Confucian journals dare not think of before.


    The post station reform directly promoted the arrival of the spring of the newspaper industry.

 Chapter 879

    Li Chengqian suddenly looked embarrassed. He took the initiative to contact Confucian journals. On the one hand, he wanted to show kindness to Confucianism, on the other hand, he brought income to the post station. Confucian journals only have 300000 copies per issue, which is nearly 15000 yuan a year.


    Merton looked at Li Chengqian''s unnatural face and couldn''t help laughing and said, "why do you think I''m such a stingy person and want the post station to enjoy the channel of the post station alone? The more arguments, the more clear it is. Although the ideas of Confucianism and ink are different, it''s a long way to publish them at the same time and confirm each other."


    Li Chengqian was relieved. It was Merton''s idea that he could make such achievements. If Merton was angry, it would be difficult to ask him for help next time.


    Merton said with a smile, "this is not the limit of the post station. In the future, with the increase of literate people, it is not impossible for a single newspaper to exceed one million, and there will be more than Confucianism and ink at that time."


    The circulation record of newspapers and periodicals in later generations exceeded one million, and they were all daily newspapers. For example, Confucianism and ink magazines had hundreds of thousands of copies in each issue. They seemed to be many, but they were all periodicals. If they were shared equally, they would be just tabloids with daily sales of 180000 copies, which took advantage of the only two in Datang.


    By the way, there''s another good news today. I''m afraid the post station will increase Wanguan''s profit every year in the future. " Merton said mysteriously.


    "Oh?" Li Chengqian couldn''t help but look happy.


    Merton explained: "ink magazines are about to be split, and the legalist column should be published separately. Over time, the post station will carry the three newspapers of Confucianism, ink and law at the same time. Isn''t it another income.


    "Legalists publish newspapers." Li Chengqian dare not buy channels. The legal column is a very popular section in Mexican magazine. Whenever reporting unjust, false and wrong cases, it will cause a great sensation. Who would have thought that Mexican magazine should talk about its separation.


    What shocked Li Chengqian even more was that the most prominent Confucianism, Mohism and Dharma of the hundred schools of thought had published newspapers to publicize their ideas. Would there be other hundred schools of thought that would publish newspapers one after another? "


    Merton looked at Li Chengqian as if he saw the idea in Li Chengqian''s heart, smiled and said, "this is natural. In the future, the prosperity of doctors will also produce a medical newspaper, and so will the farmers. Apart from others, it is not difficult for each road to produce its own newspaper. In the future, the post station will wait until it sits on the ground to collect money!"


    Li Chengqian''s heart flashed a hidden worry. Although the post station reform has received a lot of praise, it has allowed the people all over the world to communicate freely, and it is easier to accept the information of newspapers and magazines, making all kinds of news more open, which is not in line with his royal education.


    However, hearing the broad prospects described by Merton, his hidden worries were immediately cleared away. At least this time, he solved the bottomless hole of the post station for the imperial court and benefited the people all over the world.


    Suddenly, a post servant rushed into the post station, rushed to Li Chengqian and bowed down and said, "inform your highness, there is an urgent report from Jiuhua mountain that your majesty has returned from his trip."


    "Father emperor returns to the palace!" Li Chengqian was flustered. He advocated the post station reform this time. However, without Li Shimin''s consent, although he has made certain achievements, how can anyone not be flustered in the face of Li Shimin''s strong emperor and father.


    Merton also felt guilty. When Li Shimin left Beijing, he asked him not to make small moves. However, he joined Li Chengqian to carry out a vigorous post station reform. I''m afraid he will be settled by citizen Li in the autumn in the future.


    "Don''t worry, the reform of the post station is beneficial to the country and the people. Even if your majesty returns, he can''t find anything wrong." Merton said with a righteous look.


    "I hope so!" Li Chengqian was no longer full of confidence. He was suffering from injustice. He always wanted to be recognized by Li Shimin. However, when he really did things, he found that he was still difficult to please his father''s shadow.


    "How long will your majesty return to Chang''an City?" Li Chengqian frowned.


    The post soldier said solemnly, "according to the foot journey, it will take up to three days."


    Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said, "the post station will organize all the documents into a book. Three days later, the palace will personally apologize to his father."


    "Yes, your highness!" the head of the post station respectfully said.


    When Merton heard Chengqian plead guilty, he frowned slightly, opened his mouth and didn''t say anything.


    Three days later, hundreds of officials gathered under the gate of Chang''an city. Li Chengqian, the leader, looked young but strong.


    "Come, come!"


    Among the officials, there was a noise. On the brick road in the distance, a team of carriages were speeding up, and on both sides, the two teams of cavalry defended each other.


    The brick road under Chang''an city was particularly flat. The motorcade soon reached the gate. The carriage stopped and Li Shimin appeared in front of all the officials.


    "Supply the father back to the palace!"


    "Welcome your majesty back to the palace!"


    Under the leadership of Li Chengqian, all officials saluted Li Shimin one after another.


    "You Aiqing, please get up. I have been away from Beijing for more than two months. I owe you Aiqing for the affairs in the court." Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "I''m just doing my duty! I dare not take credit for it. Besides, his Highness the prince supervises the country for his majesty, and we also have backbone!" Fang Xuanling said modestly instead of all officials.


    "Oh!" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian strangely and said, "so, my prince has done well."


    "The prince is brilliant and powerful. He has the style of his majesty!"


    "The prince is kind and attaches great importance to the people all over the world."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All officials nodded one after another, and there were voices praising Li Chengqian.


    "I''m ashamed that I''m young and don''t understand state affairs. I rely on your important officials to help me." Li Chengqian said modestly.


    "Well, this is not a place to stay for a long time. I''ve traveled a long way and I''m tired. I''d better wait until tomorrow morning!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Congratulations, your majesty!" the officials bowed their hands, but their eyes involuntarily looked at the front of Li Chengqian. Tomorrow, there will be a conclusion about the merits and demerits of the crown prince''s prison state.


    When Li Chengqian saw the carriage passing slowly, a trace of reluctance flashed in his heart. He risked a great risk to reform the post station, just to get Li Shimin''s approval. However, now Li Shimin hung him there in front of all officials. Without a word of affirmation, his carefully prepared performance of post station reform failed.


    On the carriage, empress Chang sun looked worried at the lost figure of Li Chengqian and said, "emperor, Chengqian is still young and has just come into contact with state affairs. Are you too harsh on him?"


    "He was still young. When he dismissed my top five, he didn''t expect to be young." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    "Did your majesty see the post station reform after all? It''s a good policy to benefit the country and the people. The doctor in the driving department is afraid of your Majesty''s punishment. How can it be done?" the eldest Sun Queen said helplessly.


    Li Shimin was silent for a long time and said, "if qian''er didn''t do what I expected, you think I would save face for him. Let him dry first, so that he won''t know the greatness of heaven and earth if he has some achievements."


    Empress eldest grandson sighed helplessly, saying that father and son were enemies, and Li Shimin and Li Chengqian were the same. When Li Chengqian was at ordinary times, Li Shimin thought that Li Chengqian needed more training. Now that she had made some achievements, Li Shimin began to beat again. When could she see the scene of father''s kindness and son''s filial piety.

 Chapter 880

    "We see your majesty!"


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "it''s not urgent. The biggest reason why I ordered you to supervise the country is to exercise your ability to deal with government affairs. Now you supervise the country for more than two months. Let me see your achievements?"


    "Please examine your father!" Li Chengqian suddenly said in his heart.


    Li Shimin looked around at the ministers and said slowly, "the duty of supervising the country is to ensure that the chaotang operates normally and the three provinces when I leave Beijing?"


    Li Shimin turned his eyes to Fang Xuanling, who was headed by hundreds of officials. Fang Xuanling bowed and said, "I inform your majesty that during the period of the crown prince''s supervision, the three provinces operated normally."


    Wei Zheng and sun Wuji nodded their heads and praised Li Chengqian''s performance during his supervision.


    "Six?" Li Shimin nodded and continued to ask.


    Linghu de Lang, the Minister of rites, said in a voice, "Your Majesty, the rites are running normally. Now the weather is getting cold, and the envoys previously sent to the western regions have already set foot on their way home."


    "When the Ministry of punishment met the prince, there was no unjust, false or wrong case, nor did it have the right to bend the law for personal gain." Li daozong solemnly said.


    "Among the people''s ministries, the money of each ministry has been allocated, and there is a lot of surplus in the national treasury. It all depends on the dispatching of the crown prince." Dai Zhou said hard.


    All the surplus in the Treasury is because after Li Chengqian reformed the post station, the Treasury no longer allocated a lot of money to fill the bottomless hole of the post station. Naturally, there is a lot of money left.


    "Oh, I didn''t expect the prince to have such financial talent." Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian unintentionally.


    "The prince''s highness not only has the ability to manage money, but also is the God of wealth who came down to earth to turn stone into gold. He even made the post station, which had lost money and money, advance every day."


    "His Highness the prince strongly advocates the reform of the post station and saves tens of thousands of money and food for the imperial court every year."


    "What''s more rare is that post station communication delivers letters for the people all over the world, so that the people all over the world can avoid the pain of missing. It can be said to be a benevolent government!"


    "I have been away from home for many years and haven''t returned to my hometown for a long time. I received a letter from my relatives yesterday. I''m really delighted."


    ¡­¡­¡­


    For a time, the hall praised Li Chengqian''s reform of the post station, which naturally included sincere praise and many malicious support.


    However, the more people praise, the more uneasy Li Chengqian is. You know, he reformed the post station without Li Shimin''s consent.


    "Oh, is there such a thing?" Li Shimin seemed surprised.


    In a panic, Li Chengqian hurriedly stepped out and said, "I''m going to ask my father for punishment. This post station reform, I asked my father to punish me without my father''s permission and the dismissal of the driving doctor without authorization."


    Li Shimin saw Li Chengqian''s respectful appearance. Somehow, he was a little lost in his heart.


    When he was as old as Li Chengqian, he began to ride horses all over the world. However, Li Chengqian looked more and more like an old man.


    In contrast, he prefers Merton''s catfish attribute, which can turn the world upside down wherever he goes. Although he kept helping him out, Merton was even punished and punished him, but he didn''t mean to be angry. Instead, he had a different taste.


    Li Shimin was discouraged and said, "the crown prince is guilty. When I left, I entrusted you with the world without saying anything important about the military state. Your reform of the post station is also out of good intentions, in order to solve the financial burden of the imperial court and achieve great results. As for the matter of driving the doctor, since he is sick and old, the imperial court can give him more rewards. Don''t let the old minister feel cold."


    "Thank you for your love," some old ministers bowed down and thanked.


    However, some important officials can''t help thinking. Although Li Shimin has spared no effort to protect Li Chengqian, a powerful prince needs to be maintained everywhere. Just like the Mohist school, it''s not too much to beat once a day. How can he maintain it.


    The more Li Shimin defended Li Chengqian, the more ministers knew that Li Shimin was not satisfied with Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian naturally noticed the abnormality, and his face was embarrassed.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing. Li Chengqian was still not confident enough and timid. He had such great merit in his hand, but he apologized for dismissing a driving doctor. How can Li Shimin be satisfied with such worries about gain and loss.


    Soon, the great court meeting ended in the complex minds of all officials. With the resignation of all officials, Li Chengqian, as Prince, was left alone.


    "Do you know why I left you alone?" Li Shimin stood up and said without anger.


    "My son is stupid. Please give me some advice." Li Chengqian said first.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "the post station costs a lot every year. Do you think the memorial of using the post station to communicate for the people all over the world has not been put forward since ancient times? However, it has not been accepted by successive dynasties. Do you know why?"


    "I don''t know!" Li Chengqian shook his head honestly.


    "First, most of the previous memorials were eloquent. There was nothing at all and there was no practical plan. They were not as lucky as you." Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian''s Mo family, who had many tricks, gave advice. Master Shen, who was the world''s leading mathematician, asked for his planning blueprint. Su dingfang, who had rich transportation experience, ran around for him. The post station reform has a successful foundation.


    Li Chengqian was so worried that he immediately knew that his actions were seen through by Li Shimin.


    "I owe my son the merit of living in Merton. Please punish my father!" Li Chengqian quickly apologized.


    "You are the crown prince and the future prince. It is natural and honorable for them to adopt the minister''s idea. Of course, your merits and demerits are naturally borne by you. What you let me not be disappointed is that you firmly seized this opportunity. Even I have to say that you did a good job in the post station." Li Shimin sighed.


    The stamp system can be said to be a stroke of genius. The wind of philately made the post station communication popular in the Tang Dynasty, but the post station expenditure can not be maintained by sending letters alone. Moreover, with so many post soldiers sending letters, it is also a huge expenditure. If you don''t do it well, I''m afraid it will cost more. This is also the reason why successive dynasties didn''t choose post station communication.


    But with the two cash flows of Ink magazine and Confucian magazine, the situation suddenly changed, and the income of the post station suddenly increased a lot, which was enough to maintain the balance of revenue and expenditure of the post station.


    "It''s just a fluke for a child that he can''t be praised by his father." Li Chengqian was affirmed by his father. He felt a sour nose. He didn''t know the risk of reforming the post station, but he still did so, not only to prove himself in front of the ministers, but also to get the affirmation of Li Shimin.


    "However, even if the post station communication lost money before, it can gain a good reputation in the hearts of the people all over the world. Do you know why successive dynasties are still indifferent?" Li Shimin said.


    Chengqian was stunned.


    "That''s because it''s good for the world, but it''s only bad for the royal family." Li Shimin said surprisingly.


    "Ah!" Li Chengqian was surprised and looked at Li Shimin in disbelief.


    Li Shimin said faintly: "what do you think the emperors of the world spend huge wealth every year for? In addition to delivering official documents in military and peacetime, the post station can better collect information for the emperors of the world. Whenever there is a major event in the world, the first to know must be the emperors of previous dynasties. We can calmly mobilize and command, and even eliminate hidden dangers without reaction in other places."


    "Nowadays, the post station delivers letters for the people all over the world and also serves as the delivery of newspapers and periodicals. Although it reduces the pressure for the imperial court, it makes communication much more convenient, and the information advantages of the Royal and government disappear. In this way, an accident in one place will be known all over the world, and even cause great panic. Have you ever thought about the consequences?"


    Li Chengqian was in a panic. He never thought that there would be such a loophole in the post station reform he had always been proud of. His kindness did something wrong.


    "In that case, the officials there will punish themselves and abolish the post station communication." Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and said.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "you''re wrong. It''s the past dynasties, but my Tang Dynasty is not. Now my Tang Dynasty is subject all over the world and the country is prosperous. How can you care about that little rumor? And as a father, I''ll teach you another way to be a king."


    "My ministers are all ears!" Li Chengqian said modestly.


    "As an emperor, the most taboo is to change every day. Sometimes, even if it is wrong, we will go wrong." Li Shimin said with deep eyes. As a king of a generation, he naturally did not believe that a post station could shake the rule of the Tang Dynasty. He also had the heart to accept the fact of post station communication.


    Li Chengqian said coldly, "children and ministers are taught."


    However, Li Shimin only said the harm of post station communication to the royal family, but did not say the real reason why he supported the post station reform.


    Although protecting Li Chengqian is one of the reasons, it is more helpless. If it was before, he must have maintained the current situation of the post station like the emperors of previous dynasties. However, since recent years, with Merton''s unremitting efforts, the taxes of Datang have increased year after year, but the national treasury is increasingly short of money and is simply not enough.


    Harnessing the Yellow River, building brick roads, and the Weishui bridge being built are a bottomless gold eater. However, these are important things for the country and the people, and they can''t be built without construction.


    In this way, it is valuable to save the money allocated to the post station every year. This money is enough for the imperial court to do a lot of things and no longer be short of money. This is also the real reason why Li Shimin finally agreed to the post station reform.

 Chapter 881

    After Li Shimin returned to the palace, the accompanying empress Chang sun naturally returned together. After the next Dynasty, Merton did not leave, but joined Changle and went to the Lizheng hall to pay a visit to empress Chang sun.


    "Empress mother!" when Princess Changle saw the empress changsun, she immediately looked like a child. The milk swallow threw herself into the arms of the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang sun patted Princess Changle, who looked like a little daughter, and comforted her, "they have all been married. How can they still be like children."


    "No matter how old her daughter is, she is a child in front of her mother." Princess Changle said in her mother''s arms. Even if Princess Changle gets married, she can still go in and out of the palace often to meet empress changsun. I''m afraid she has never been separated for such a long time.


    Although the empress changsun said blame, she couldn''t help but show a happy smile on her face.


    "Mother, things have improved a lot recently. It seems that Jiuhua Mountain is really good for mother''s health." Princess Changle carefully checked the pulse of empress changsun.


    "That''s true! Jiuhua Mountain has pleasant scenery and beautiful scenery. Coupled with the beautiful water in the mountain, it is a great place for self-cultivation. Although her mother was only there for two months, she also felt relaxed and happy." empress Chang Sun said with joy on her face.


    Empress changsun has been in the imperial palace for a long time. Although the scenery in the palace is extremely beautiful, she will be bored when she looks at it. Suddenly she comes to a picturesque treasure land. Her mood is naturally different. Accordingly, she is refreshed and her body naturally recovers well. In addition, the brick road is extremely flat and there is no fatigue of boats and cars. It is much more comfortable to go out and play than before.


    Princess Changle nodded with deep understanding. When she spent her honeymoon, she saw the great rivers and mountains of Datang for the first time, just like a caged bird out of trouble. She didn''t know how happy she was.


    The mother and daughter talked about the scenery along the way. Merton accompanied them and inserted a few words from time to time, which was also very happy.


    However, this harmonious scene did not last long. Soon, Li Shimin appeared in the legislative palace. When he saw Princess Changle smiling, he snorted coldly when he saw Merton. Merton, Li Chengqian''s reform post station, did a lot of work behind his back. How can he hide it from him.


    "Father emperor!" cried Princess Changle in a delicate voice to help Merton out.


    Li Shimin smiled and chatted with Princess Changle and empress changsun for a while. Then he got up and said, "say this first. I have something to do with Merton."


    Merton quickly got up and followed Li Shimin out of the legislative hall.


    Princess Changle in the hall looked at Merton''s figure following Li Shimin and couldn''t help showing a worried look.


    "You''re too young to stay!" empress Chang Sun said in her heart as she looked at Princess Changle.


    "Don''t worry, this is the way they exchange feelings with their son-in-law. Besides, what can your father and emperor do with Merton with their mother?" the eldest Sun Queen comforted.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help smiling bitterly. I''m afraid there is no such model for Weng''s son-in-law in the world.


    "Morton, do you know the sin?" Li Shimin shouted coldly as he came out of the Lizheng hall.


    "Wei Chen confessed." Merton confessed honestly.


    When Li Shimin saw Merton like a hob meat, he was angry and shouted coldly: "the prince has just taken the post of supervisor. He is eager to make contributions. I can understand! And you? I have mentioned you before I left. I want you to be more calm. It''s good for you to cooperate with the prince to reform the post station."


    Merton knew what would happen today and had already prepared his speech. Now Lang said:


    "Your Majesty is wronged! I can''t bear to see that the original post station, which is beneficial to the country and the people, is not only a pearl covered with dust, but also a loss for years. It''s called the burden of the imperial court. It''s a terrible thing!"


    "The pearl is covered with dust, and it''s a terrible thing! If you don''t say ugly Yin today, you can''t muddle through." Li Shimin is not moved by Merton''s boasting. This is a trick used by all officials in the court. If Li Shimin makes a fuss every time, I''m afraid it''s not too much to be surprised every day.


    Merton took a deep breath: "in the view of Wei Chen, the post station that should have been beneficial to the country and the people has become a bottomless hole in the court hall. The post station that was enough to keep pace with the six departments is now subordinate to the military department, but the official position is only five grades. The post station is the most underestimated Yamen in the Tang Dynasty."


    "Benefit the country and the people! It''s enough to keep pace with the six movies!" Li Shimin frowned at Merton. He didn''t expect Merton to look so high at the post station, but he didn''t know whether it was alarmist or really valued it.


    "Yes, the imperial court invests a huge amount of money and food into the post station every year, but the results are few. It is almost idle in ordinary days. Post communication not only benefits people all over the world, but also saves the imperial court a lot of expenses every year. Isn''t it beneficial to the country and the people?" Merton said.


    Li Shimin said coldly, "what do I think? Your Mohist school has benefited the most? As far as I know, Mohist magazines have been published all over the world through the post station channel, and have benefited more than several times. Dare you say your boy has no selfishness."


    Merton was immediately aggrieved and said, "Your Majesty, you have wronged micro minister. Mo magazine has indeed benefited a lot with the help of the post station, but Confucian magazine is not the same. Moreover, for his Royal Highness the prince, micro minister palletized the express plan of Mohism, but suffered a heavy loss!"


    "Express plan?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton briefly explained the express mode of later generations, and finally regretted: "Weichen originally sold the goods of Mojia village to the world with the help of the express plan after the brick road in the world was built, so that everyone in the world can enjoy the benefits of Mojia and will no longer be hoarded by businessmen."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but smack at Merton''s huge express plan. Mojia village is rich in four-wheel carriages. If the brick road is unblocked, the express plan is highly feasible.


    "So you hide your clumsiness, split the express plan, hand over the communication business to the post station, but hide the logistics business with the highest profit." Li Shimin asked.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, the most important task of the post station at the moment is to turn losses into profits. A letter is only a fraction of a penny. It is thin and light, and the transportation is convenient. With the existing post station facilities, it can be easily realized with a little investment, while logistics is not. It is large and heavy, and requires a lot of carriages and storage. Firstly, Datang brick road has not been built, the transportation is inconvenient, and secondly, the logistics investment is huge It is impossible to make a profit in a short time, and the prince has only two months,....... "


    Merton didn''t go on. Li Shimin naturally understood that Li Chengqian wanted to make some achievements in two months. Now it''s valuable to be able to balance the revenue and expenditure of the post station.


    In fact, Merton still hasn''t said something. The "post station" express delivery in later generations can be criticized for its slow speed and often losing pieces. Letters are not convenient for transportation. It''s not said that except that the recipient has no interest in others, naturally there won''t be many post soldiers who risk stealing letters. At most, they are just stolen stamps.

 Chapter 882

    "Two months! You two are really greedy for heaven. Do you know what consequences will be if you make a mistake." Li Shimin also couldn''t help but be frightened. He was amazed by their boldness. Two weak champions took advantage of his trip to boldly reform the court department and succeeded.


    "Since Wei Chen has made a move, he is naturally confident of success!" Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin''s face turned better and said coldly, "fortunately, it was successful. Otherwise, can you still stand and talk to me? Do you know how much it will hurt Chengqian if there is any mistake?"


    Li Shimin can be said to be very attentive to Li Chengqian. He not only taught him personally, but also had high expectations for him. When Li Chengqian was ill fated and suffered from foot disease, he was not good for walking.


    Foot disease may not be a big blow to ordinary people, but it is shocking news for a prince. Since the Tang Dynasty, no disabled person has ascended the throne as emperor.


    Fortunately, Li Chengqian met Merton and skillfully used the mystery of shoes to solve Li Chengqian''s walking problem, which gradually changed Li Chengqian''s psychology. This is also the reason why Li Chengqian is eager to make contributions. He urgently needs a merit to prove that he is still a qualified Prince and can become a wise emperor in the future.


    "So it''s true that the post station reform is beneficial to the country and the people. However, I''m afraid you''ve overstated the truth by comparing the post station with the six imperial halls!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    Merton laughed and said, "no, the post station is like a burden in the court hall. In the boy''s opinion, it can be said to be priceless, and its function is comparable to six books, which is not too much."


    "Just tell me, if the truth is reasonable, I''ll let you go this time. If you make it up, you''ll be punished!" Li Shimin threatened Merton with coax and fear.


    Do it again! Merton rolled his eyes.


    "Your Majesty knows that Mojia village bank has accumulated millions of wealth in a short time since its establishment, which has attracted the covet of countless people, especially Ziqian family." Merton solemnly said.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "it''s a matter. Wu Yuanqing, I have exiled him to Zhenzhou. Will he be pardoned?"


    Merton continued: "however, although Wu Yuanqing has been under the law, the Ziqian family still doesn''t give up. Now the Ziqian families in various places have begun to unite to jointly operate the flying money business. If you save money in one place, you can withdraw money anywhere in Datang, but the charge is too high, which is worth a hundred."


    "It''s worth a hundred to draw ten, and the Ziqian family is really greedy!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but be surprised. You know, the money order business in Mojia village is only worth a hundred to draw one, and the Ziqian family has increased ten times at once. Merton is not surprised, which echos the greedy nature of the Ziqian family.


    "The Bank of Mojia village is only five cities, and Ziqian''s banks are all over the Tang Dynasty. The flying money business is all over the world and a unique business! Even merchants dare to be angry and dare not speak." Merton talked about his skills.


    Li Shimin nodded, but couldn''t deny it. "Even so, what does it have to do with the post station?"


    Merton laughed and said, "the world envies the Bank of Mojia village for its daily progress, while Ziqian''s banks are all over the world, but it is not found that one department is the combination of Ziqian''s Bank and Mojia village bank."


    "Post station!" Li Shimin was shocked and his eyes were fierce, like an eagle catching the trace of prey.


    Merton said proudly, "yes, the success of the Bank of Mojia village is based on the reputation of the Mojia family and the guarantee of 300000 yuan in the imperial palace. However, the Ziqian family depends on the banks all over the Tang Dynasty. However, in terms of reputation, the post station is directly subordinate to the Imperial Hall, which is better than the reputation of the Mojia family; in terms of channels, the post station is all over the Tang Dynasty, which is better than the Ziqian family.


    After a little transformation, the post station can become a collection of banks and banks, and gather the wealth of the world in the hands of the imperial court. At that time, it is not impossible to say that it is a million, even a million. With this huge wealth in hand, how can the imperial court be troubled by the lack of money? Let''s ask such a department, which is in charge of the flow of money, turnover taxes for the imperial court, insight into the world economy and gather huge wealth for the imperial court, Whether we can have a seat in the court hall. "


    "Hoo!"


    Li Shimin suddenly breathed, and even Merton could hear how excited Li Shimin was at the moment.


    Under the impetus of Merton, there are too many places where the court needs to spend money, and it seems that there is no end. The crisis of lack of money in the court is increasing day by day. However, who can think that to solve the crisis of lack of money in the Tang Dynasty, there are countless money consuming post stations in the court. Moreover, the success of Mojia village bank and the opening of Ziqian family''s flying money business happen to have proved the feasibility of post station bank.


    The most terrible thing about the "post station" in future generations is not its market value, but its large network scale, wide coverage and all villages and towns across the country. If you come from the countryside, no matter where you live and work, you can''t have any bank card, but you can''t have a "post station".


    After a long time, Li Shimin regained his calm. He took a deep look at Merton and said, "the world says that you are a catfish, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth. The Ziqian family just put you together, but you broke the back road of the Ziqian family."


    It can be imagined that once the post station opens banking business, it is naturally impossible to be as greedy as Ziqian family, which is worth a hundred and ten. It can only be as valuable as Mojia village.


    As a result, the feiqian business, which the Ziqian family spent a lot of money to build, may be paralyzed immediately and its credit will be lost.


    In later generations, the money flying business of the Tang Zi Qian family was too ruthless, which was resisted by businessmen one after another. Later, even if it continued to reduce the price, few people used it.


    "Weichen only knows that it''s convenient to be with others and yourself. Ziqian''s move is just killing the goose that lays the egg. Sooner or later, he will kill himself." Merton sneered. Ziqian''s own channels and reckless actions are just a move of suicide.


    Of course, Merton''s move is also selfish. The Mojia village bank is like a cornucopia. Naturally, it has long been targeted by the imperial court. If it goes on like this, even Merton may not be able to keep the Mojia village bank. If the post bank can be established, it will transfer the pressure of the Mojia village bank. In this way, the Mojia village bank can be preserved.


    After pondering for a long time, Li Shimin sighed, "I have ignored the importance of the post station. I really have no eyes!"


    "Your Majesty is serious," Morton arched his hand.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "the post station needs to be considered in the long run. Now the Ziqian family has just surfaced and it is not time to close the net. Moreover, since the post station reform is the work of the prince, I am ready to hand it over to the prince at this time."


    Merton was surprised at Li Shimin''s eyes. He didn''t expect that Li Shimin had such a good intention for Li Chengqian. Since Li Chengqian wanted to make contributions, Li Shimin waited for Li Chengqian.


    But Merton didn''t know that Li Chengqian was the greatest atonement in Li Shimin''s heart. At the beginning, he was unwilling to let Li Yuan establish a leader, directly launched the transformation of Xuanwu Gate, killed his brother and imprisoned father and ascended the throne as emperor.


    Now he supports Li Chengqian as the crown prince, which is also to adhere to the direct eldest son inheritance system, but also to make up for the guilt of the change of Xuanwu Gate.


    "Your Majesty''s love for his son moved Weichen." Merton sighed. I hope that Li Chengqian in this life will not do stupid things again and will not let Li Shimin''s efforts be wasted.

 Chapter 883

    Seeing Merton and Li Shimin return, Princess Changle''s worried look was swept away. One is her husband and the other is her father. Naturally, she wants to see them live in harmony, but I''m afraid it''s a luxury.


    "Cough! It''s rare for Changle to go back to the palace today and order the imperial dining room to prepare more dishes that Changle likes to eat." Li Shimin looked at Princess Changle and spoiled her face. It can also be regarded as a disguised stay for Merton to eat.


    "Yes!" pound hurried away.


    "Thank you, father!" Princess Changle said happily.


    "You, too, have to advocate CD-ROM action. Can the Royal salary given to you every year be less than that meal." empress Chang sun scolded on her face. Although she knew the significance of CD-ROM action, she still couldn''t help feeling distressed to see her daughter so frugal.


    Li Shimin gave Merton a bad look, as if Princess Changle had been wronged in the ink house.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. The main purpose of the CD-ROM action is to reduce extravagance and waste, not to live frugally. However, it is an indisputable fact that Princess Changle''s expenses are reduced.


    Princess Changle said proudly, "if my daughter doesn''t set an example, how can people all over the world follow suit? Over time, she can certainly save a lot of food for the Tang Dynasty."


    "I''ll make an exception here today and let the empress mother treat you well." the empress changsun said painfully.


    Princess Changle nodded obediently. With her mother, she naturally put down the burden of the mistress of the Mo house and accepted her mother''s love.


    When Princess Changle arrived, Li Chengqian and his brothers also came to accompany her.


    Everyone did a good job in turn, and soon plates of delicacies were brought up. To tell the truth, although the imperial food in the palace was exquisite, it lacked a little atmosphere. Li Shimin moved his chopsticks first, and others dared to start. Moreover, there were many rules and paid attention to food without words. The whole atmosphere was very serious.


    Princess Changle tasted the familiar food, but she always felt something was missing. When she saw Merton, she suddenly remembered the scene of two people chatting while eating. She suddenly realized that I''m afraid that''s the real meaning of eating, and now I''m afraid it''s just eating.


    Merton didn''t care about this. In the face of the food ahead, he worked two bowls in a row. It has to be said that the food in the imperial palace is indeed better than that in the ink house. A single soup is said to have been boiled for three hours, and the food in the ink house is better than that in the novel variety and diverse taste.


    He tried to wipe out a plate of venison in front of him, which was a real practice of Changle''s CD-ROM operation. Only then did he put down his dishes and chopsticks and belch with satisfaction.


    The Li Chengqian brothers looked at Merton with admiration. They never dared to behave so willfully in the imperial palace.


    Li Shimin has no expression on Merton''s rude face, and is obviously used to Merton. The eldest grandson empress kindly asks the maid to offer a cup of good tea to moisten Merton''s throat.


    "By the way, there''s good news from Mo hospital. The prince''s foot disease has been cured." Merton drank a sip of tea, as if unintentionally.


    "What?"


    "Seriously?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly, the original silence atmosphere of the whole Lizheng hall was suddenly broken. Li Shimin suddenly raised his head and stared at Merton with sharp eyes. Empress changsun was surprised. The chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground without the slightest awareness.


    Li Chengqian suddenly got up and couldn''t help himself. Foot disease was his biggest stain. As a prince, his image was damaged because of foot disease. Although Li Shimin didn''t abolish his crown prince, it made the proud Li Chengqian unbearable. Fortunately, Merton solved the problem of walking for him, but it did not cure the symptoms.


    At Merton''s suggestion, Donggong strongly supported the Mexican hospital and even provided free information on orthopedics. As Merton said, over time, we can certainly find a method to treat foot diseases. Maybe this method will take ten or eight years, maybe decades, but Li Chengqian didn''t expect that the Mexican hospital had conquered the method to treat foot diseases so soon.


    Merton solemnly said: "Weichen dare not deceive. The Mexican hospital has treated foot diseases for the people all over the world free of charge in recent years. It has had a lot of experience in treating foot diseases. Even many foot diseases more serious than the crown prince have been cured. However, there are no guaranteed diseases in the world. The specific cases of the crown prince in recent years need to be used as reference, but according to the estimation of the Mexican hospital, it is at least 70% sure."


    "70% sure!"


    Everyone can''t help but be quiet. Doctors are 70% sure. Doesn''t that mean that there is still 30% possibility of failure.


    Merton nodded and said, "if the prince is willing to wait, so that doctors can do more cases, the probability of cure will be higher."


    "Don''t wait! 70% chance is enough!" Li Chengqian couldn''t wait.


    "Qian''er, don''t act rashly. If you wait a little longer, you''ll have a better grasp." empress Chang sun advised.


    Li Chengqian shook his head firmly and said, "mother, forgive me. The child has been suffering from foot disease for too long. He doesn''t want to wait for a moment to recover. 70% of the assurance is enough."


    "What if it fails?" the eldest Sun Queen worried.


    Merton said sadly, "twenty percent of them may maintain the status quo, and the worst may be wound infection."


    Li Shimin could not help but sink in his heart. He had experienced war and naturally knew how terrible wound infection was. Only in recent years, the Mexican hospital used wound suture, alcohol disinfection and boiled bandage, which greatly improved the healing rate of the wounded soldiers. Rao is so. Many soldiers still died of wound infection, Doctors have the highest cure rate of wounded soldiers, only 95%.


    "My ministers are willing to take the risk," Li Chengqian said firmly.


    "Elder brother, don''t be anxious. Today''s doctors'' technology is changing with each passing day. Over time, they will be able to cure foot diseases without risk." Princess Changle advised.


    "Don''t act impulsively, big brother. Once something happens, you can''t imagine the consequences." Li Tai also exhorted.


    The brothers and sisters advised one after another, but Li Chengqian was not moved at all.


    "Emperor!" empress Chang sun couldn''t help looking at Li Shimin. Now only Li Shimin can stop Li Chengqian.


    When Li Shimin saw that he could not help being in trouble, he naturally knew that the foot disease had become Li Chengqian''s heart disease. If the foot disease could not be cured, Li Chengqian would always have a thorn in his heart.


    "Since it''s your choice, I''ll help you. I hope you don''t regret it." Li Shimin said fiercely in his eyes. Only by curing Li Chengqian''s foot disease can he become the perfect prince in his mind. The probability of 70% is very high for ordinary people. Coupled with the terrible cure rate of doctors in the western expedition, Li Shimin made a decision.


    "The child has no regrets. Even if there is a wound infection, please don''t blame anyone." Li Chengqian looked at Merton with gratitude.


    At this moment, he was really glad that he listened to Merton''s advice and wholeheartedly supported doctors. Now he finally got a harvest. Although there was only 70% hope, it was enough for him to give a go.


    In his heart, he understood that the father emperor was a person who pursued perfection, and he was an imperfect prince who was destined not to get all the favor of the father emperor.

 Chapter 884

    In the East Palace, famous doctors gathered, led by Sun Simiao and Hua Lao. Mo Wu of the Mohist family accompanied him and carefully examined Li Chengqian''s last case.


    "Two miracle doctors, the prince''s foot disease depends on them." Li Shimin took a deep breath.


    Sun Simiao Lang said, "Your Majesty is serious. Thanks to the prince''s care for many years, it''s time to repay the prince."


    Hua Yuan nodded solemnly. Doctors were waiting to prosper. When the Mohist hospital was established, Mohist school was just emerging. At that time, it was all thanks to Li Chengqian''s support site and money that they were able to tide over the difficulties.


    Even the imperial doctor would not be willing to take the risk to treat Li Chengqian again. It is a great achievement to cure him, but it is a great sin to not cure him, but the doctor is not. Since he has received the favor of Li Chengqian, he is naturally duty bound.


    Moreover, they have had many surgical experiments and are quite sure. Moreover, under the existing medical conditions, they have reached the limit of their level. I''m afraid there won''t be much breakthrough later. Only then can they tell the news through Merton''s mouth.


    "Two miracle doctors can do their best. Our palace knows that medicine can''t cure diseases, and only our palace can bear all the consequences." Li Chengqian said firmly. He knew that the two in front of him were the most powerful miracle doctors in the world. If they couldn''t cure foot diseases, I''m afraid no one would treat them again.


    "Thank you for your love, but as doctors, we still have to explain the specific situation to your majesty and your highness." old Hua said solemnly.


    This time, Li Chengqian''s foot disease belongs to surgery, but he took the lead. Naturally, it was his doctor''s advice.


    "Doctor Hua, please tell me. I''m all ears." Li Shimin said.


    Old Hua picked up Li Chengqian''s case and said solemnly, "I have studied the case of the crown prince for many times. After this diagnosis, I can basically conclude that the crown prince''s condition is because after the first injury, his bones have healed and haven''t grown well, which leads to foot disease."


    This is not uncommon. Under such developed medical conditions, there are still bone joints that are crooked, not to mention in an era when surgery is extremely backward only based on experience.


    Li Shimin suddenly flew into a rage and said, "do these imperial doctors eat dry food? They should have made such a big mistake."


    Many imperial doctors immediately showed a look of fear. When they diagnosed Li Chengqian''s disease, they still had one.


    Old Hua shook his head and said, "Your Majesty wronged the imperial doctor. When the prince was injured, the doctors were scattered. Moreover, at that time, his Highness the prince was injured in his bones. There was no problem with the imperial doctor''s treatment. Even if I and brother sun were there at that time, I''m afraid I might not be able to do better."


    Many imperial doctors immediately looked at Hua Lao with gratitude. With Hua Yuan and Sun Simiao endorsing for them, they could pass this level.


    "But after several years, the prince''s foot disease still has a chance to recover." Li Shimin worried.


    Old Hua nodded and said, "since it doesn''t grow well, only this bone can be broken again and renewed."


    "Re break renewal."


    Everyone frowned when they heard this incredible scheme. It seems simple, but everyone knows the difficulty.


    Hua Yuan nodded and said, "there are two difficulties. First, if you want to accurately locate the bone, you must dissect the skin and flesh of the foot. Although there is a wound suture method, there is still a risk of wound infection.


    "Second, the pain of broken bones can''t be easily borne by anyone. If the patient can''t help moving, I''m afraid it will cause more serious diseases," Hua Yuanning said.


    "What about that?"


    Li Shimin was worried, but he knew that under the severe pain, ordinary people couldn''t bear it. After all, Guan Yu''s bone scraping and poison treatment is just a legend.


    Li Shimin glanced at old Hua, but he knew how Cao Cao was feeling when he killed Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo even wanted to cut open Cao Cao''s head to treat gout. Fortunately, old Hua was not as crazy as his ancestors. He just cut open Li Chengqian''s feet.


    Chengqian nodded with lingering fear, but he knew how painful he was when he was injured for the first time.


    Hua Yuan glanced at Li Chengqian and said meaningfully, "but it''s not without a solution."


    Li Shimin had a flash of light, looked at Hua Yuan and said in surprise, "could it be that the doctor has cracked Ma boiling powder."


    Li Chengqian was so excited that Ma boi San was a famous Chinese medicine. It was the masterpiece of Hua Tuo, the ancestor of old China. If this help, the probability of successful operation will increase greatly.


    Hua Yuan nodded and said, "through the unremitting efforts of my husband and brother sun, I finally cracked the main component of our ancestor Ma boiling powder, Datura."


    "Datura?" Li Shimin frowned and said, "according to me, Datura is highly poisonous."


    "However!" Hua Yuan nodded without hesitation, "this requires doctor sun to accurately control the dosage of Datura and detoxify his royal highness after the operation."


    "This is sun''s duty." Sun Simiao bowed.


    Seeing Sun Simiao''s originally worried heart, I couldn''t help but relax. If Sun Simiao personally displays Datura, the safety will be guaranteed.


    "Besides, I don''t know how much wine your Highness has?" Hua Yuan suddenly asked.


    "How much to drink?" the crowd looked at Hua Yuan in disbelief.


    Hua Yuan explained: "I don''t have the ability of my ancestors to make the perfect hemp boiling powder. However, the liquor of Datang is a good anesthetic. The prince''s Royal Highness takes Datura with wine, which can not only reduce the toxicity, but also have a better effect."


    Although liquor has no magical effects such as Ma boiling powder, it can greatly reduce pain. This is an existing more effective means of anesthesia found by doctors in medical practice. Moreover, Ma boiling powder in historical books is also served with wine, which must be the same reason. Of course, the wine of the Han Dynasty is not comparable to the distilled wine of the Tang Dynasty.


    Using alcohol as an anesthetic and reducing the dosage of Datura can not make the patients completely lose their pain, but Li Chengqian''s injury is on his foot, which is the easiest place to control. This is also the most secure and most likely way for doctors to negotiate.


    "Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. No matter whether the operation is successful or not, I won''t blame anyone in the doctor." Li Shimin solemnly promised.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan solemnly said. Although there is no medical trouble in today''s Datang, they are relieved to have Li Shimin''s guarantee.


    "In that case, let''s start and invite the crown prince to drink this wine." Sun Simiao brought a bowl of medicinal wine to one side, in which Datura had naturally been soaked.


    Chengqian took a deep breath and drank it. He soon fell into a coma and was pushed in.

 Chapter 885

    How prudent it would be for the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty to have an operation. Just when Li Chengqian was pushed into the operation specially prepared by the East Palace, the whole East Palace had been blocked layer by layer. It can be said that water could not be poured in.


    The main hall of the east palace where the operating room is located has long been taken over by doctors. The main knife is Hua Lao, and the person in charge of medication is Sun Simiao. Mo Wu starts at one side. All disinfection matters are carried out on the site, and there is a special person to supervise, so as to achieve perfection without any negligence.


    Outside the main hall of the East Palace, everyone was just staring at the gate of the main hall and waiting anxiously.


    "Why hasn''t there been any news!" empress Chang Sun said anxiously. There was no sound in the main hall. How can she not make empress Chang sun anxious?


    "Don''t worry, my mother. There are doctor sun and old Hua. I believe my eldest brother will recover." Princess Changle comforted.


    Li Shimin was silent, even if his heart was burning, but his eyes stared at the east palace gate from time to time, revealing his heart.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. Today''s doctors are not what they used to be. Since the doctors have volunteered, they are naturally quite sure that the crown prince will pass this pass this time." Merton advised aside.


    Li Shimin nodded. Since the doctors were supported by Li Chengqian and made use of the Mohist ink technology, coupled with the inherent profitability of the doctors, they have simply opened up and made a great leap. In just a few years, the Mohist hospital has surpassed Taiji hospital and become the holy land of medicine in the world. Countless patients are cured every day.


    In this world, if there is a disease that can''t be cured by the Mexican hospital, it''s only to burn incense, worship Buddha and pray for miracles.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. Your Royal Highness has his own heaven, and he will be safe." Yang FeiGong said.


    Not only is the mother and son of the eldest grandson empress here and the prince heals his foot diseases, but the imperial concubines of the Imperial Palace and other princes naturally come to visit him. It is difficult for everyone to know. If Li Chengqian''s operation is successful this time, the crown prince will be as stable as Mount Tai. If the operation fails, other princes will have a chance.


    However, the people naturally did not show other colors. On the surface, they were all bent on praying for the success of Prince Li Chengqian''s operation.


    For an hour, there was still no movement in the main hall of the east palace. Even the most calm Li Shimin couldn''t help pacing up and down.


    Finally, with a squeak, the door of the main hall of the East Palace opened, and Mo Wu came out, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Doctor Mo, what''s the matter with qian''er?" seeing Mo Wu, empress Chang sun hurried forward and asked anxiously.


    "Back to the empress, the operation is very successful. The prince has awakened. The prince''s bones have been connected, the wound has been sutured, and the outside has been fixed with plaster. As long as there is no wound infection, I believe the prince will recover." Mo Wu solemnly said.


    "That''s good!" the eldest Sun Queen was relieved. The doctor had explained the problem of wound infection before, and the next most important postoperative care.


    "All doctors have to work." Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the operation is successful, it is equal to half the success. He has a basic understanding of the doctor''s disinfection procedure. He believes that if there is no accident, there will be no problem.


    "Then can I see gan''er later?" the eldest grandson empress shouted urgently.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "the most taboo of postoperative infection is to contact with the outside world. Now the main hall of the East Palace has been completely disinfected. If others enter, I''m afraid it will increase the risk of infection. The queen and her majesty finally visit across the glass. Don''t enter the ward, and the number should not be too large. All the care of the crown prince will be completed by the children of doctors."


    There are no antibiotics in this era. In order to reduce the probability of Li Chengqian''s infection, doctors directly built the main hall of the east palace into a sterile room similar to that of later generations, which can be said to have made the most comprehensive preparations.


    "Doctor Mo''s opinion shall prevail." Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    If others don''t give face to empress Chang sun and empress Li Shimin, I''m afraid they won''t be able to eat all at once. However, after Mo Wu refused, Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were not dissatisfied at all, but very cooperative.


    "Your Majesty, please call me Mo Wu." Mo Wu Gong said.


    "Mo Wu, I know you. You found the cure for the night blindness of the people all over the world. Countless wounded soldiers in Datang survived through your hands. I believe you won''t let me down this time." Li Shimin looked at Mo Wu deeply.


    "Your Majesty is serious. No matter ordinary soldiers or your crown prince, they are all patients in the eyes of doctors and will go all out to cure them." Mo Wu solemnly said.


    "Good! Good! The doctor''s parents'' heart, this is the real medical ethics," Li Shimin exclaimed. Then he changed into the nursing clothes with the empress changsun. Merton and Princess Changle also changed into the nursing clothes and accompanied the left and right into the main hall of the east palace.


    Through the glass, Merton saw Li Chengqian lying on the hospital bed. He was still very weak when he just woke up from anesthesia. Seeing Li Shimin and empress Chang sun coming, he struggled to get up, but was stopped by Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan.


    "I''m sorry Chengqian can''t salute his father and mother." Li Chengqian said weakly.


    "There''s no need to be polite. You''re just recovering. Just rest assured." empress Chang Sun said painfully when she saw Li Chengqian. The child was all the meat from his mother, but Li Chengqian suffered twice in a row because of an accident. How can empress Chang sun not feel distressed.


    "Take good care of your injury. I hope to see the prince walking fast soon." Li Shimin said in a deep voice. When he said the word prince, he couldn''t help but aggravate his voice.


    "Yes, father!" Li Chengqian nodded as his eyes brightened.


    "Tell the emperor, it''s time to visit. The prince has just awakened and needs a rest." seeing that the time is almost up, doctor Mo Wu has suffered from occupational disease again, even Li Shimin and empress Chang sun still speak frankly and urge.


    "Well, let qian''er rest first, and we''ll visit again tomorrow." Li Shimin and empress Chang sun admonished.


    "Your Majesty, don''t be anxious. As long as the wound is not infected, the crown prince can come out to remove the suture and live a normal life in ten days at most. The rest is waiting for the bone to heal." Mo Wu said.


    Li Shimin nodded and walked out of the main hall of the east palace with empress Chang sun.


    Merton left the visiting time for Li Shimin and the empress Chang sun. Only when he was leaving did he wave goodbye to Li Chengqian.


    After they left, Sun Simiao, Hua Lao and Mo Wu took turns to monitor Li Chengqian''s condition. The treatment of Li Chengqian was the first show of doctors in the imperial court, but it was related to the future of doctors. We must ensure that Li Chengqian''s injury was safe.

 Chapter 886

    On the first day, with Sun Simiao''s superb medical skills, the toxicity of Datura was completely relieved and Li Chengqian''s consciousness returned to normal.


    However, the toxicity of Datura had passed, and Li Chengqian''s nerves returned to normal. Soon, the severe pain from his legs did not attack Li Chengqian all the time. However, all the pain was nothing in front of the crown prince. Li Chengqian used great perseverance to resist moving.


    "Your Highness, your anesthesia has passed, and the pain of disinfecting with alcohol is very severe. I hope your highness can resist it." the next day, Mo Wu solemnly said with alcohol in his hand. In this era, alcohol is the best disinfectant, even if it is irritating to the wound.


    "Don''t worry, the palace will cooperate." Li Chengqian gritted his teeth. Naturally, he knew the importance of alcohol disinfection. The key to the success or failure of his operation was the infection of the operation. How can he despise it.


    Mo Wu nodded, quickly stained alcohol with a cotton swab and applied it to Li Chengqian''s wound.


    "Hiss!"


    Li Chengqian couldn''t help but take a breath. Even if he was ready, he almost didn''t move because of the tingling of alcohol. Fortunately, he was ready and his legs and feet were fixed.


    On the third day, Huayuan and Sun Simiao came together. Seeing Li Chengqian''s wound recovering smoothly, they couldn''t help nodding: "Congratulations, your highness, the three-day dangerous period of wound infection has passed. It''s OK to disinfect it on time."


    Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief. He disinfected every two hours, but he tossed about a lot. Fortunately, all this is worth it. As long as he gets through this level, he will have no defects.


    It was not only Li Chengqian who breathed a sigh of relief, but also Sun Simiao and Hua Yuan. Fortunately, the doctors made complete preparations. Li Chengqian finally passed the three-day dangerous period with the greatest risk. Although it was a little red and swollen, it did not expand. This is a normal phenomenon that doctors often encounter in the process of practicing medicine. With the resistance of the human body, they can survive safely.


    The fourth day, the fifth day...... until the tenth day, after Mo Wu personally removed the stitches for Li Chengqian, he saw that the redness and swelling had retreated. Then he solemnly came to the Lizheng hall and reported to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the prince''s wound healed well!"


    "Congratulations to your majesty and queen. The prince''s injury is all right." Merton couldn''t help but say happily. I''m afraid he knows more about Li Chengqian than anyone else. For the experience of later generations, he naturally knows how sensitive Li Chengqian''s heart is to foot disease. It can even be said that the initial incentive for Li Chengqian''s step-by-step death is probably due to foot disease.


    Now Li Chengqian''s foot disease has been cured by doctors. If he can regain his confidence, he will be able to change his fate.


    "Thank God, thank God." empress Chang Sun said piously.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "no, what the queen wants to thank is the doctor. The doctor''s means are really extraordinary."


    At the moment, he is only grateful. Which parent doesn''t want his child to be healthy, and the doctor not only saved his child, but also the crown prince of Datang. Everyone knows that ordinary normal people are suddenly disabled, and very few people can break through psychological barriers. However, more often have paranoid character, A prince with sound character is too important for Datang.


    "Thank you, doctor." empress Chang sun solemnly said to Mo Wu.


    Mo Wu quickly replied, "the empress flattered me. This is the duty of a doctor."


    Merton said in his heart, "Your Majesty, I have an idea about treating the prince''s foot disease through a doctor. I don''t know what to say."


    "But it doesn''t hurt to say!" Li Shimin was in a good mood and waved his hand.


    Merton pondered for a moment, raised his head and said, "everyone has birth, old age and death. However, according to the Mohist statistics, the average life expectancy of our Datang is only 35 years old, of which the life expectancy of the population in the city is higher, about 40 years old, while that of ordinary villages is only about 30 years old. A large number of young people and infants die of illness every year. The reason is that there are too few good doctors and medicines."


    In this era, the cost of people''s illness is very high. Often an insignificant disease may take a life, and there are countless patients in remote villages, which eventually delay their illness because of the lack of good doctors and remoteness.


    Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully. What Merton said is indeed an indisputable fact of Datang.


    "Does your majesty know how many patients Chang''an Mo hospital receives a day?" Merton Lang said.


    "Hmm!" Li Shimin looked at Merton puzzled.


    At Merton''s sign, Mo Wulang said in a voice: "back to your majesty, now Chang''an City Mo hospital receives an average of 3000 patients a day, a full million people a year."


    "Millions of people!"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help taking a breath. One million person times is probably equivalent to the total population of the whole Chang''an city. If half of these one million people can recover, it would be equivalent to saving 500000 people for the Tang Dynasty every year. What a feat it would be, which moved Li Shimin for the first time by doctors.


    Merton''s face was calm. It''s not surprising that the number of patients received by the better third-class hospitals will exceed this number every day. Of course, it''s not that everyone in Chang''an city is ill, but with the convenience of transportation, all patients who can reach Chang''an city rush to the hospital, so that the hospital is overcrowded, This is also the reason why old Chinese can''t wait to open a branch in Luoyang, which slightly reduces the pressure of Chang''an Mo hospital.


    "I will reward the doctor for his outstanding contributions," Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Wei Chen is not asking for merit for doctors today, but regretting for doctors. Now doctors have just sprung up, and Mo hospital only covers Chang''an and Luoyang, while patients in other places have suffered from bad doctors for a long time. If the imperial court supports doctors and makes everyone with 100 surnames in the world have access to medical treatment, people all over the world will live countless lives and their life expectancy will increase greatly."


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. He looked at Merton and said, "the imperial court supports the doctors. You don''t have to hide them. Tell me what you have in mind."


    Merton nodded and said, "Weichen believes that it is very simple for the imperial court to support doctors. Just let each Taoist priest in the Tang Dynasty concentrate their own famous doctors and set up hospitals so that people all over the world can have medical treatment."


    "Let the Tang Dynasty build hospitals?" Li Shimin said.


    "The hospital model is not complicated. It is to concentrate good doctors in one place and let good doctors specialize in one subject. If they specialize in technology, they can certainly make great progress in their medical skills. Moreover, the hospital itself has a strong profitability. The imperial court only needs to invest in sites and medicinal materials in the early stage. In the future, the hospital can not only be self-sufficient, but also earn a lot of profits." Merton explained that for namo hospital, In the early stage, only the venue provided by Li Chengqian, and the funds and ink technology provided by the Mohists developed so rapidly.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help nodding. This plan is also feasible and doesn''t cost much.

 Chapter 887

    "We can support doctors step by step. The imperial court can first support hospitals to build. After making profits, it will not be too far away from state hospitals, county hospitals and even township hospitals. At that time, people all over the world will have medical treatment. How can the average life expectancy be only 35, that is, it is not impossible to reach 60 or 70 years old per capita." Merton said proudly.


    In Merton''s view, if the development speed of Merton hospital is allowed to be too slow, if the imperial court intervenes, it will greatly simplify the process. In this way, doctors can develop rapidly, and the people all over the world will also benefit a lot.


    Even if Li Shimin is used to the big winds and waves, he can''t help being excited by Merton''s plan. It seems whimsical, but it''s not impossible to think about it. Once people''s life expectancy increases greatly, there are too many benefits for Datang.


    However, this is not over yet. Merton continued: "even if doctors are flourishing in the future, people all over the world will not be able to implement free medical treatment with the general people in Mojia village. What a prosperous era it will be."


    "Build a hospital and free medical care. How many people do you have in a Mojia village and in the whole Tang Dynasty? Do you know how much money you need." Li Shimin was somehow rational and glared at Merton. Merton''s suggestions are usually grand and practical, but there is only one disadvantage: it costs too much money.


    "Compared with the lives of the people in the Tang Dynasty, this money is nothing. Moreover, step by step, Mojia village can implement free medical treatment, and there will certainly be one Mojia village after another in the future." Merton said indifferently.


    Li Shimin was immediately silent. After a long time, Lang said, "the order will go down. All roads in the Tang Dynasty will follow the example of Mo hospital and set up a hospital by themselves."


    He was not too radical. He just ordered each road to set up hospitals. After all, the doctors had just saved Li Chengqian. He still wanted this kindness, and there were only ten hospitals, which the imperial court could afford.


    "I thank you for the doctor, your majesty," said Mo Wu excitedly. As a result, the scale of the doctor suddenly increased several times, which gave the doctor a new momentum. Moreover, with Zhu Yu in the front of Mo hospital, he believed that doctors in other hospitals would not miss this opportunity. After all, the hospital is much better than being a doctor in terms of influence and income.


    "In addition, Weichen has another strategy." however, Merton did not end, but continued.


    "Go ahead!" Li Shimin said solemnly without impatience this time.


    "The average life expectancy of the people in the world is low. In addition to no good medicine, there is another reason is that there is no good medicine." Merton said solemnly.


    "Good medicine, as far as I know, the ink medicine produced by the Mohist school has an excellent response. People only need to take it on time to recover! Isn''t this good medicine?" Li Shimin pointed out.


    Merton shook his head and said: "The Mohist school produces only ordinary drugs, but there are still many diseases in the world that have not been treated with effective drugs, which is also missing in the Tang Dynasty. If the imperial court strongly supports doctors to carry out medical research, encourages famous doctors to overcome difficult and miscellaneous diseases and look for good medicine, just as Mo Wu found a way to treat night blindness, he was given a title by his majesty, I think God A good doctor must be moved by the wind. "


    Li Shimin can''t help feeling a little excited. A title can solve a difficult problem. Li Shimin will not be stingy.


    Merton continued: "the same is true of foot disease. Since ancient times, he has never heard of the theory of broken bone reconnection. This time, his royal highness fully supported the Mexican hospital to study the method of treating foot disease, and even let the Mexican hospital overcome this difficulty in a short time. If famous doctors focus on the study of Qi disease, stroke, plague, smallpox and schistosomiasis..."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help breathing and looked at the empress Chang sun. You know, empress Chang sun has been suffering from Qi disease, while Li Yuan has been paralyzed by stroke for many days. Smallpox, plague and schistosomiasis are terrible diseases that make the people of the Tang Dynasty pale. Even if there is a imperial medical department in the palace, there is nothing to do when they encounter real difficult and complicated diseases.


    If a doctor can really find a way to cure this disease, he may not be stingy of huge rewards.


    "These severe diseases may not be able to find a good medicine to overcome in a short time, but Wei Chen believes that as long as the doctors make unremitting efforts, one day in the future, our seemingly incurable diseases may be treated as easily as colds and colds. If the doctors are allowed to develop smoothly, this day will come for a long time. If the imperial court strongly supports the doctors, this day will come earlier and earlier The people will live countless lives. "


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. He has been worried about the condition of empress Chang sun and Li Yuan, and has found good doctors all over the world for them. However, even Sun Simiao, who is recognized by the world, still failed to cure them.


    Merton''s provided him with another way out. Since there is no way to cure Qi disease and stroke, he can place his hope in the future, but hope that this day can come faster.


    "It may take a long time for doctors to overcome diseases, and it may be solved like night blindness. Weichen believes that as long as they fully support doctors, one day, human beings will no longer be helpless in the face of diseases and will really control their own lives."


    "Control your life!" Li Shimin took a deep breath. This time, he was finally persuaded by Merton and nodded,


    "As you wish, the imperial court will allocate a sum of money every year to support doctors to study difficult and miscellaneous diseases. Every case will be given a title," Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Merton solemnly said, "thank you, your majesty. Thank you for saving your life."


    Li Shimin wondered, "what''s the meaning of saving lives?"


    "The minister is also a mortal and will also get sick. Your majesty strongly supports the doctors and will certainly make medicine flourish. When the minister gets sick one day in the future, isn''t it the grace of saving lives because of your Majesty''s policy?" Merton solemnly said. No one can think of what disease he will get. If he gets sick unfortunately and happens to be overcome by the doctors, isn''t it the grace of saving lives.


    "According to what you said, didn''t I save myself?" Li Shimin laughed and felt very interesting, but he couldn''t help being dignified,.


    As an emperor, who doesn''t want to live a long life? However, with Merton''s continuous efforts to dig the foot of the wall, the road of cultivating immortals and alchemy has almost been blocked. If Li Shimin wants to live a long life, I''m afraid he can only support doctors.


    At this moment, Li Shimin felt how right it was to decide to support doctors, not only for doctors, the people of the Tang Dynasty, but also for himself.

 Chapter 888

    "Thank you, marquis Mo, for speaking out for the doctors." after learning that Merton''s plan to support the doctors proposed by the imperial court was passed, Sun Simiao said solemnly.


    He devoted all his life to helping the world and treating patients, but in such a legendary life, he found that the patients he treated in his life could not catch up with the patients treated in January by Mohamed hospital. If there were hospitals in all roads, States, counties and villages as planned by Mohamed, how prosperous would doctors be and how many patients doctors could treat every day, That''s what he thinks of.


    "Doctor sun is flattered. The boy is also for himself. The doctors are thriving. Only when I am seriously ill in the future can I be saved." Merton said modestly.


    Sun Simiao couldn''t help sighing: "the world knows this truth, but for thousands of years, only mohou can see clearly."


    Old Hua was in a good mood and said, "brother sun, don''t be polite to Merton. Mohists and doctors have always been in the same breath and complement each other. The success of doctors is naturally inseparable from the support of Mohist Mohist Mohist technology, and Mohist has benefited a lot from the free medical treatment implemented in Mohist village."


    "Free medical treatment!" Sun Simiao couldn''t help sighing. This is the ideal realm that doctors dream of. However, it has been realized in Mohist school. Although it is only free medical treatment for common diseases, with the development of Mohist village in recent years, the number of free diseases alone has reached 30, covering almost all common diseases, even other diseases, The villagers of Mojia village can also enjoy half price treatment in Mojia hospital, which can hardly cost much money.


    "I really hope I can see that people all over the world don''t have to worry about their own diseases one day." Hua also lamented that the free medical treatment in Mojia village only covers the people in one village, while most people in the world still have no medical treatment, and even rely on their body to fight. Sometimes a small cold can kill an adult.


    Merton nodded, "as long as 100 families work together, I believe this day will come."


    Sun Simiao and Hua Lao nodded solemnly. If they hadn''t dared to think about this day before, but Merton''s plan to support doctors by the imperial court gave them hope.


    "In addition, the Mohists have a gift for doctors," said Merton Lang.


    "A gift?" Sun Simiao and Hua Lao were so excited that they could be called a big gift by Merton. It must not be a simple thing.


    Merton looked at Mo Wu. Mo Wu came forward knowingly, put a one foot square box on the table and said in a loud voice, "master, this is a gift from the young master. As an apprentice, with this, my doctor will be like a tiger."


    Sun Simiao and Hua Lao are teaching Mo Wu''s medical skills wholeheartedly. On the one hand, Mo Wu is indeed a rare medical talent. On the other hand, it is because Mo Wu has become a contact between doctors and Mohists. After several years of experience, they have long found that doctors can''t develop without Mohist ink skills.


    "This is a telescope..." Sun Simiao said in surprise.


    Mo Wu opened the box with a move in his hand, revealing a utensil like a telescope, but the telescope was facing the sky, but the two cylinders in front of him were facing down.


    Merton shook his head with a smile and said, "no, this mirror is called a microscope. Its principle is the same as that of a telescope. The only thing is that the telescope enlarges distant objects so as to see what is beyond the human eye, while the microscope enlarges tiny objects."


    "What''s the use?" Sun Simiao wondered.


    "Under the microscope, everything will be invisible. The hair is as thick as an arm. The mosquito leg can be enlarged to the size of an ox leg. Under the microscope, a grand micro world will appear in people''s sight."


    "Under the microscope, doctors can compare the difference between normal people''s wounds and infected wounds, so as to find a method to treat infection. Normal people have a lot of benefits from drinking clean water. Drinking water placed for a few days is easy to cause stomach trouble. If you put the same water under the microscope, you will find how dirty the water put for a few days!" Merton said proudly.


    Mo Wu on one side prepared two glasses of water that seemed to be clear, took one drop each on the glassware, put it on the microscope, then gave way to his position and said respectfully, "please, two masters!"


    Sun Simiao and old Hua looked at each other. Old Hua first said, "I''ll come first."


    At that moment, old Hua couldn''t wait to come to the microscope. With the help of Mo Wu, when his glassware was dense like small insects, he suddenly felt numb on his scalp and said in horror, "it''s so dirty that he''s still alive."


    Sun Simiao, on the other side, couldn''t bear it and came to the microscope eagerly. However, when he saw the creatures clearly visible on the microscope, he made a different reaction from Hua Lao. He looked up at two glasses of water that were equally clear in front of him and couldn''t help sighing: "There is a Buddhist cloud, a flower a world, a leaf a withered and prosperous. As expected, I am sincere and do not deceive me. There is such a wonderful life in a drop of water, which is what sun has seen all his life."


    Merton nodded: "indeed, but these wonderful lives may also be the cause of human illness. If doctors follow the vine and find the real cause of human illness, it will be the greatest gospel in the world."


    This time, even Sun Simiao could not help but be moved. The significance of telescope to Taoism is well known. Mohist school gave telescope to Taoism, so that Taoism has the device to see the sky. For doctors, microscope is no less than telescope to Taoism. Microscope is the device to see the sky of doctors.


    With a microscope, doctors can easily find the cause of the patient''s illness, so as to judge the patient''s condition more accurately, and even cure the disease.


    "Can this microscope be mass produced?" Hua couldn''t wait.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "it can be mass produced, but it is very difficult to make this microscope. At present, there is only one sample, but the Mohist can guarantee that every Mohist hospital can have one for up to half a year."


    This microscope is his special preparation for Li Chengqian''s treatment of foot diseases. Once the wound is infected, he can use it. Otherwise, how could he easily risk letting Mo hospital treat Li Chengqian? Fortunately, everything is very smooth now.


    "What about the hospitals?" Sun Simiao said with a frown.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "boy, send ten more microscopes to hospitals all over the world. However, if doctors want more microscopes, they need to buy them. After all, we can''t let the Mohists lose money all the time."


    Sun Simiao could not help bowing down to Merton and said gratefully, "it''s enough."


    Such precise and magical instruments are invaluable to doctors, let alone gifts. It''s not too much to let a doctor spend all his money to buy them. Merton''s gift of more than ten sets at once is the best of his kind. Moreover, based on his understanding of Merton, even if doctors spend money to buy them in the future, the price will not be too outrageous.


    At present, the microscope immediately remained in the East Palace, and Li Chengqian, who had just turned a little, became the mouse of the microscope. Needle pricking, blood drawing and wound test were essential.


    Chengqian was devastated. Seeing Merton, the originator of the terracotta warriors, he could not help gnashing his teeth. If he hadn''t hurt his foot, he wanted to get up and beat Merton immediately, which had relieved his hatred.

 Chapter 889

    "All roads in the world set up their own hospitals." as this decree was spread all over the Tang Dynasty by the post station, there was a cheer all over the world. In particular, the subsequent Ink magazine reported that this was the first step for chaotang to support doctors. Then, it was also possible for all States and counties to set up hospitals, and the people all over the world immediately shouted benevolent government.


    Although MOH hospital is the holy land of medicine, it is too far to go to Chang''an City for medical treatment under the condition of extremely inconvenient transportation. If the condition is more serious, it is estimated that it will be impossible to get there.


    If every road in the world has a hospital that is not inferior to Mo hospital, it will be very convenient for people to see a doctor in the future. Even if they rush to the state capital in marginal places, it is only a few days, which is much better than trekking for a month to Chang''an Luoyang.


    As for the various government departments, they are also very cooperative with this decree. After all, no one knows that they will be able to use doctors on that day. Moreover, the hospital itself has a very high profitability. In addition to the large investment in the early stage, the rest can be said to come naturally and wait for political achievements.


    "I''m so angry. The magistrate of Chang''an County said that Chang''an city already has an ink hospital and there is no need to set up a new hospital." Princess Changle said angrily in the east palace.


    Since Li Chengqian cured his foot disease, Princess Changle and Merton have come to the palace more frequently.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "in fact, what the magistrate of Chang''an County said is not wrong. The scale of the Mexican hospital in Chang''an City has been expanded repeatedly enough. If each hospital is built, there will not be so many foreign doctors. For a long time, only one Mexican hospital in Chang''an City should be enough."


    At this time, there are not so many kinds of diseases. Although the price of seeing a doctor in the Mexican hospital is not high, there are not many people who are really willing to go to the hospital. More people carry their own diseases. Moreover, Chang''an city is only a million people. One Mexican hospital is enough, and the establishment of the Mexican hospital has already caught all the wise doctors in Chang''an city, Even Chang''an County Government strongly supports the establishment of hospitals, I''m afraid it can''t develop.


    "Why do you even say so? No, Mo hospital is not set up in Chang''an County. Besides, the father and emperor issued an edict to set up hospitals in ten ways in the world, not one less." Princess Changle seems to become the spokesman of doctors and strive for the interests of doctors.


    "Ah!" suddenly Princess Changle covered her stomach and seemed very uncomfortable.


    Merton hurried forward to help him and said, "what''s the matter?"


    "I don''t know. I always feel that something is wrong in recent days. Not only my body is very tired, but also my stomach is very uncomfortable." Princess Changle sat down in a chair and said weakly.


    Merton couldn''t help but worry. The medical conditions in this era were very backward, and he knew that Changle in history did not live long, which was also the reason why he urgently wanted to support doctors. At present, he quickly said in a loud voice: "Mo Wu, please invite two miracle doctors immediately."


    Soon, Sun Simiao and old Hua came in a hurry. After carefully giving the pulse to Princess Changle, Sun Simiao frowned, but did not say it clearly. Instead, he turned his head to old Hua and said, "brother Hua, you also give the pulse."


    "The pulse is brother sun''s unique skill. I''ll teach others how to axe." Hua Yuan said modestly, but did not refuse. Instead, he took the position. First, after the pulse, he carefully listened to Changle Gong''s heartbeat and breathing with a stethoscope, and then put down the stethoscope.


    "Two miracle doctors, what''s the disease of Changle?" Merton asked anxiously.


    Old Hua and Sun Simiao looked at each other, smiled and said, "this is not a disease!"


    Sun Simiao nodded. "If I wait for two people to make a mistake, the royal highness of the princess is a pulse."


    "Happy pulse!" Merton was stunned and puzzled.


    "That''s pregnancy!" Princess Changle blushed and kicked Merton.


    "Seriously?" Merton said with a surprise on his face.


    Hua Lao ha laughed and said, "the old man may be wrong, but brother sun has never lost his pulse. In my opinion, the discomfort before his royal highness is a happy thing."


    "Great!" Merton giggled with joy. There was only one pulse left in Mojia village. Now Princess Changle is pregnant, which must be a great joy in Mojia village.


    "Thank you, two miracle doctors. I''m sure there will be a red envelope sent another day." Merton bowed his hands and said gratefully.


    Old Hua waved his hand and said, "no, the doctors in Mo hospital don''t accept red envelopes, which is recognized by the doctors. You don''t know, Changle doesn''t know?"


    Sun Simiao said happily, "the microscope given by the Mohist school to doctors is thicker than any big gift."


    "Changle is really pregnant!" the surprised voice of empress changsun came from the east palace.


    The news of the princess''s pregnancy was a great joy. A palace maid had already rushed to the empress Chang sun. Naturally, the empress Chang sun came at the first time.


    Princess Changle blushed and nodded shyly. She also studied medicine, but she didn''t care before. Now I''m afraid it''s the symptom of pregnancy.


    "Return to the queen, according to the old man, the Royal Highness has been pregnant for January," Sun Simiao affirmed.


    "That''s great. Tomorrow, the palace will go to the temple to repay the wish to Guanyin." empress Chang Sun said happily. Princess Changle and Merton have been married for nearly a year, but there is no good news. She is secretly anxious in her heart, but she didn''t expect happiness to come so suddenly.


    Princess Changle looked at Merton with a red face and said shamefully, "empress mother, my child is now a member of the Mohist family. She has long not believed in Buddhism and Taoism. Where do you need to go to the temple to fulfill her wish."


    After she married into the Mohist school, she was naturally deeply influenced by the Mohist School''s rationality. Naturally, she no longer believes in the Buddhist school''s saying of sending her son Guanyin. Moreover, as far as she knows, not long ago, Mohist School and Buddhism had a deep Festival. Up to now, many Buddhist children still gnash their teeth at Merton. Now Mohist school has the same status as Buddhism, As the mistress of Mohism, she should not go to the temple to burn incense.


    Empress changsun naturally knew the great debate between Mohism and Buddhism, but it was a custom to burn incense and wish for the safety of mother and son. She frowned when she heard Changle refuse.


    Morton had an idea and said: "it''s not necessary to burn incense after returning to his mother, but the safety of Changle''s mother and son still needs to make necessary preparations. Mo Wu, you go to inform Lord Su, the magistrate of Chang''an County. There''s no need to set up a hospital in Chang''an city. The Mo government will invest in the construction of a maternal and child hospital in Chang''an city."


    "Maternal and child hospital?" empress Chang sun was stunned.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "That''s right! As far as I know, pregnant women have a great risk of childbirth, and newborn infants are very easy to die. Naturally, I don''t want to let the princess and children bear this risk. I set up a women''s and children''s hospital to let pregnant women live in the women''s and children''s hospital when they are about to give birth, and call the best stable women in Chang''an city to take charge of the delivery. After the child is born, he receives the best medical care to ensure that his mother and child are safe and sound ¡£¡±


    In this era, the delivery of children is in their own homes. Even the eldest grandson queen gave birth to the princess Jinyang is in the legislative palace. There has never been a hospital specially responsible for delivery.


    "Of course, this also needs the support of the women''s Medical College." Merton turned his head and arched to Sun Simiao. Sun Simiao is in charge of the women''s Medical College, and Sun Simiao''s female disciples are skilled doctors, which is the best person to be in charge of the women''s and children''s hospital.


    "I''ve been exploring the way out of women''s Medical College, and mohou''s strategy can kill two birds with one stone." Sun Simiao nodded. He always found that it was very difficult for women''s medical college students to integrate into Mohist hospital, and the new women''s hospital was not built in a short time. Merton''s proposed women''s and children''s hospital can be said to point out a bright way for women doctors.


    "This policy is very good!" empress Chang sun looked at Merton with satisfaction.


    Although Changle refuted her idea of burning incense and praying for Buddha, the maternal and child hospital proposed by Merton immediately dissipated his previous unhappiness, which is hundreds of times better than her going to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha. As a mother, who doesn''t want his daughter to be safe.

 Chapter 890

    "The princess is happy!"


    When this news was sent back to the Mohist house, the whole Mohist house immediately boiled. The pulse of Merton has always been passed down from generation to generation. At the pulse of Merton, merlie died early, leaving only Merton alone. The pulse of Merton is the root of the rise and fall of Mohist school, which is naturally a major event of the whole Mohist school.


    After Merton became an adult, getting married and having children became a top priority in Mojia village. Now the princess is pregnant, which is great news for Mojia village.


    Then the news came back to Mojia village. The whole Mojia village was also jubilant. The development of Mojia village was at its peak and its wealth accumulated rapidly. Although Merton was very young and did not need to consider the problem of successors for the time being, the prosperity of Mojia village could continue only when Merton had descendants, let alone the descendants of Merton and Princess Changle, In order to keep the wealth of Mojia village.


    Therefore, Mohist house and Mohist village were so excited when they heard that Princess Changle was happy, and Merton''s idea of building a maternal and child hospital was strongly supported by Mohist village.


    "We must build the best hospital, all in accordance with the specifications of Mo mansion villa. We tell all workshops to have all the steel and cement ready, give priority to the supply and construction of women''s and children''s Hospital, and let the future young master and young lady be born in the best environment." Li Yi was excited and shouted.


    "Yes!" the workshop leaders should say, even if they know that they must work overtime from now on, there is still no complaint.


    "We must continue to make bricks to Hebei''s official kilns. We must be perfect. At the same time, we should select the best Mohist children, and make sure that the hospital is built in the shortest possible time. There is no need to worry about the cost." after Li Yifen finished, she breathed a sigh of relief, as if the pressure in her heart was suddenly swept away.


    Not to mention that the Mohist village is in full readiness, the Mohist house is even more grand. The whole Mohist house is decorated with lanterns. The excited Fubo immediately led the Mohist family to check the whole Mohist house and clean it inside and outside.


    "Don''t make a noise. If you scare the princess''s pregnancy, you''ll look good."


    "Pave these roads, not only flat, but also not too smooth. Otherwise, if the princess slips or trips, you can''t eat and walk around."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Fubo kept commanding the people in the Mohist house, but he couldn''t help smiling. Merton grew up watching him until he got married. Now the princess is pregnant again. When the Mohist school is about to have a baby, he can be regarded as having an explanation to the master.


    "Elder sister Yu, make up for the princess immediately. Don''t worry about the CD-ROM action. Pregnant women can no longer be among them. They should have a richer diet than the princess in the past." Fubo suddenly stopped aunt Yu passing by, looked at the food prepared by Aunt Yu, and waved his hand.


    Aunt Yu was ordered and couldn''t wait to show her skills. Soon, plates of delicious food were cut off in Princess Changle''s villa and bedroom.


    "My husband, I''ve gained so much weight these days." Princess Changle said coquettishly looking at her charming face in the mirror in the villa bedroom.


    Merton couldn''t help smiling bitterly. He was really fat. Aunt fish didn''t have to spend money on cooking food. Changle couldn''t eat it. At last, it almost went into his stomach.


    However, it is not a good idea to reason with pregnant women. This is the experience gained by Merton after many painful lessons. Even Changle, who is usually gentle, still makes Merton suffer a lot after pregnancy.


    "Now you eat alone and make up for two. Of course, you should eat more, so that the child will be healthy." Merton quickly comforted.


    "But my husband, I don''t want to eat spinach." Princess Changle frowned as she looked at the spinach slowly boiled in front of her.


    Merton hurriedly advised: "eating more spinach is very good for the fetus within three months. Now it is approaching winter. Only spinach, a green vegetable, must be eaten. In this way, we can make our children grow up healthily."


    "You''re a liar. I''m familiar with medical books. Why don''t you know this one? Besides, spinach has only come to the Tang Dynasty for three years. How did you know that?" Princess Changle doesn''t believe it. Although spinach is rare, it will be tired of eating too much.


    Merton couldn''t help thinking and said, "this is Mozi''s secret book. According to what Mozi ancestors heard, the deformity rate of children born to pregnant women in winter in Persia and other places rich in spinach is very low. The main reason is spinach. If our children want to be born healthy, it''s essential to eat more spinach."


    Spinach contains a lot of folic acid, which is the best thing to prevent fetal malformations. Merton is glad to promote spinach early. There is no artificially refined folic acid in this era. Only through this method can pregnant women supplement a little folic acid.


    Fortunately, after three years of promotion, the planting area of spinach in Mojia village has been expanded by hundreds of mu, becoming the only green in winter.


    "Seriously!" Princess Changle said suspiciously.


    "That''s natural! For this reason, the prime minister has ordered that half of the spinach in the experimental field be cut off and specially supplied to the women''s and children''s Hospital for free. Once the children are born in the women''s and children''s Hospital, the healthy rate of the children will increase greatly, which will certainly make the women''s and children''s Hospital popular." Merton said proudly.


    Seeing Merton''s confident and high spirited expression, with the understanding of Princess Changle about him, he confirmed that the matter was true. At present, he no longer resisted and ate a plate of spinach in front of him.


    "Let''s go! It''s time to go to the maternity and children''s hospital today." Merton didn''t get up until Princess Changle finished eating.


    "Prenatal examination!" Princess Changle couldn''t help but look bitter. The prenatal examination was also the Constitution made by Merton for the women''s and children''s Hospital, which stipulates that once a woman is pregnant, she must go to the women''s and children''s hospital regularly to check the development of the fetus on the specified days to ensure the health of the fetus.


    However, Changle also knew that Merton''s move was also for the healthy growth of their children. Although he was reluctant, he still got up and went to the new women''s and children''s hospital.


    The location of the women''s and children''s hospital is extremely extraordinary. Since he heard that Merton was going to build a women''s and children''s Hospital for Princess Changle, Li Shimin naturally gave strong support and directly gave a royal palace to the women''s and children''s Hospital as the hospital site with a big hand.


    This royal residence is the royal residence of the previous dynasty. It has a superior location and covers a very wide area. Although the house is a little dilapidated, the scenery is excellent.


    Today, the newly created maternity and children''s hospital works in this palace. It is Zhang Shi, Sun Simiao''s proud female disciple, who is in charge of the maternity and children''s hospital. He once insisted on practicing medicine after marriage, but finally gave up because of the opposition of his husband''s family. Fortunately, the Mohist family offered conditions that their husband''s family could not refuse, which enabled them to continue practicing medicine.

 Chapter 891

    Now I heard that Merton wanted to establish a maternity and children''s hospital. Zhang volunteered. To be honest, hosting a maternity and children''s hospital is not a very easy job. After all, the risk of having children in this era is quite large. Zhang, who has given birth, naturally knows this clearly.


    However, it was because of this that she voluntarily gave up her high-tech job in Mo hospital and volunteered to come to the unstable women''s and children''s hospital. On the one hand, she wanted to repay Merton''s kindness, on the other hand, she wanted to devote herself to the women''s and children''s Hospital, so that women all over the world would no longer have to take such great risks to have children.


    "Your Royal Highness is very necessary for regular birth inspection. In the course of half life, she has seen many pregnant women whose babies are dead, but they do not know that from birth to labor, they are ignorant and ignorant, even when they are in labor.


    Mohou ordered that the pregnant women who came to the maternal and child hospital must have regular physical examination to check the situation of pregnant women and fetuses. In my opinion, it is the most correct thing, "Zhang solemnly said.


    Changle looked at Merton in surprise and said mischievously, "I didn''t expect my husband to know so much about production."


    Merton couldn''t help choking for half a night. He not only sighed for Princess Changle''s brain circuit, but had to hit ha ha and said, "I don''t think of you and children."


    Obstetric examination is a very common theory in later generations, but it is so novel in this era. First, the conditions are backward, there are no women''s hospitals, and there are no experts in women and children. Second, people have no awareness of this at all.


    Hearing the words of Merton and Zhang, Princess Changle nodded and really attached importance to the birth inspection. As a mother for the first time, she naturally wanted her children to come to the world healthily.


    "Princess highness, please stretch out your hand."


    Zhang sat in front of the princess of Changle, carefully took the pulse of Changle, and asked in detail about his royal highness, and then picked up a specially printed pamphlet for Changle to fill out the information.


    "How''s Changle, Doctor Zhang?" Merton asked nervously.


    Zhang said with a smile: "the princess''s pulse is very healthy, but pay more attention to her daily diet. You can''t eat too exciting things or do strenuous exercise, but you can''t lie in bed all the time. The most wrong way to protect the fetus is just normal activities."


    Merton was relieved.


    Zhang continued: "the princess should have just been pregnant for about one month. The expected delivery date should be July 20 next year. After that, she needs to come to Mo hospital for prenatal examination every half month."


    Princess Changle exclaimed, "ah! Our child will be born on July 20 next year."


    Zhang explained: "we often say that pregnancy in October is not the case. The time of pregnancy should be 280 days. As for which day a child is born, there is only a fixed number. We must not be superstitious. It is nonsense to think that there is a taboo to be born at that time. No matter which day is born, it is a child''s blessing, even on the first day of the new year."


    In this era, the eight character of birth determines the fate of many people''s lives. The eight character of birth determines the fate of what Tiansha lone star, Kefu, Kefu, Kezi and eight character disagreement. Many people are taboo about the birth time of their children. They think that this time is good and that time is not good. Even some husbands, regardless of their wife''s life and death, think that there is a high probability of having a son at which time, and keep letting pregnant women endure until that time and then forcibly deliver the baby.


    "How many years have I been practicing medicine? The probability of having boys and girls is only half. Solitary Yin does not give birth to solitary Yang does not grow. If all the world has boys and no women give birth, how can we continue the next generation?" Zhang was filled with righteous indignation and obviously had a deep understanding.


    Merton nodded: "There are too many patriarchal women in the world. The Mohist school established a women''s and children''s hospital to get rid of the bad habit of patriarchal women in the Tang Dynasty. President Zhang can make these words into slogans and banners, paste them in every corner of the women''s and children''s Hospital, publicize the pregnant women who came to the hospital, and claim that it is not the responsibility of women to have boys and women, but both men and women have the responsibility. In this way, the bad habit imposed on women by the secular world can be allowed Break. "


    In this era, there is no complete medical evidence that boys and women are all decided by men. Only declaring that both men and women have responsibilities is the most suitable way to reduce women''s pressure.


    Zhang nodded and said with worry: "in addition, to reduce the pressure on women to have boys and girls in the world, there is another key figure, that is, mother-in-law. Some son preference mother-in-law will even kneel and thank heaven when they see that it is a boy. When they see that it is a girl, they won''t look at it at all, and even say that the girl is a loser."


    "How hateful!" Princess Changle said angrily.


    Merton thought a little: "the world thinks that men can inherit their families, and girls not only waste food, but also pay a large dowry. This is the reason why the world values boys over girls. Her mother-in-law speaks evil words and doesn''t know that she is also a woman. Isn''t this the same practice?"


    Zhang''s eyes brightened. Merton''s words can be described as the best weapon for women to fight back. She believes that some sensible mothers-in-law will be touched by it, and the idea of son preference will be greatly reduced. This is the gospel of women all over the world.


    Princess Changle could not help looking at Merton with love. At this moment, she was really convinced that she had not married the wrong person. It was unprecedented for the world to have a husband as sensible as Merton.


    Soon, the first birth inspection of Princess Changle was about to end. Zhang stretched out his hand and a doctor brought a plate of spinach in front of Princess Changle. Changle couldn''t help but look bitter.


    "Princess highness, spinach can greatly reduce the condition of fetal disability, I believe that Mo Hou should know more clearly than his old man." Zhang laughed and looked at Merton road.


    To tell the truth, Zhang doesn''t know whether spinach can reduce fetal disability, but after all, spinach is a valuable green vegetable in winter. The price in Chang''an city is very valuable, and eating more green vegetables itself is good for pregnant women, not to mention that these spinach are provided to maternal and child hospitals by Mohist School for free.


    If there is an effect, it is naturally better. Even if there is no effect, it is a good thing to let pregnant women eat more valuable spinach.


    Princess Changle glared at Merton, and the appointed picked up spinach and ate it.


    Merton was not moved. Although spinach is a very rare good thing for ordinary pregnant women, people can eat green vegetables in winter, but they will be tired of eating too much. Princess Changle still eats the spinach in front of her for her fetus.


    Princess Changle ate the spinach in three or two, and then got up. The first birth inspection of Datang was officially completed.

 Chapter 892

    "Princess highness and Mo Hou this way please!"


    Today''s women''s and children''s hospital has just been established and has not begun to receive pregnant women, while Princess Changle is them. Merton bowed his head. The building of the women''s and children''s hospital has five floors, one floor is about one foot, and a total of five feet is equivalent to about 15 meters of later generations. It does not exceed the Royal regulations, let alone built for Princess Changle in name.


    In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, either Taoist or Buddhist tower is higher than the height of the royal family. Why not build a building for doctors? However, doctors have just sprung up, so there is no need to touch bad luck in this regard.


    "It costs too much money!" Princess Changle said uneasily when Zhang Yang left with another order.


    Although she was born in the royal family, she would not worry about money, but seeing the magnificent layout of the building in front of her, she knew that it would cost a lot. She didn''t want to have a child by herself, so she worked so hard for fear of losing the population.


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, madam. Although there is a lot of money at the moment, everything is worth it. A reinforced concrete hospital building can be used for at least a hundred years. On average, the annual use cost is very low."


    Zhang Shi nodded. Even if the building has long been tens of thousands of passes, on average, it is only a hundred passes a year. It can be said that it is very cost-effective to own the building every year.


    "Besides, the women''s and children''s hospital can be said to be the first women''s Hospital in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, pregnant women near Chang''an city will come to Chang''an City for medical treatment. If only ordinary houses are built, I''m afraid all the royal palace will still be built, and the cost is higher. If you want to build a hospital to accommodate more people in Chang''an city with an inch of land and an inch of money, you have to build a high-rise building Merton pointed to the huge palace and explained that Changle was very sensitive after she was pregnant. He didn''t want to put a burden on Changle''s heart.


    "Besides, this is only the first high-rise building of Mohism. From now on, it will be the second and third building, or even bigger and higher than this. Buddhism and Taoism take the Taoist pagoda and pagoda as the symbol, and the academy is the pride of Confucianism. My Mohism takes the high-rise building as the symbol. The higher the building is built, the more solid it is, the most widely used it is, and the more it reflects the strength of Mohist ink technology.


    Zhang Jun Chang side side in the way: "Princess your highness don''t worry, in my view, the most should use high-rise buildings should belong to the hospital, no doubt, with the Mexican hospital, the prince''s highness donated such a broad site, now all exhausted, Rao is still so tight bed, until our maternal and child hospital building after completion, the old believe that the next Mexican hospital will follow closely.


    Merton nodded: "yes, this is the general trend. Weifu once said that Chang''an city is the imperial capital. The most fundamental reason for the high house prices is that there are many people and less land. If you want to solve the dilemma of Chang''an City, you can only build high buildings and use the least land to accommodate more people. At that time, Chang''an city will be full of high buildings. Don''t despise the low five storey buildings."


    "The five storey building is still low." Princess Changle looked at the towering high building in front of her. She never thought that one day someone would dislike the low five storey building. In her opinion, once the building is completed, it will become the tallest building in Chang''an.

 Chapter 893

    "There are still any difficulties in today''s women''s and children''s hospital. The princess is here to solve them all for you." Merton looked at Princess Changle and said with a smile.


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look, but she couldn''t help feeling a little arrogant. On some levels, her Princess identity was much better than Merton.


    Zhang thought for a moment and said, "thank you, mohou. Today''s female doctors and apprentices can be deployed from mohou hospital and women''s Medical College, which is enough, but there are very few stable women in charge of delivery. Only the queen allocated two experienced stable women from the palace. If there is no stable woman with rich experience in delivery, once a large number of pregnant women are received, these two people are not enough."


    Merton nodded: "It''s not easy for me to recruit stable women. I asked the princess to recruit experienced stable women in Chang''an City in the name of the princess''s house, but this is only a transition. Although stable women in Chang''an City have rich delivery experience, most of them are illiterate, let alone proficient in medicine. Once pregnant women have difficulty giving birth, stable women can only do nothing, leaving the life and death of pregnant women to fate, and women and children Hospitals must cultivate their own stable mothers with both medical skills and experience, so as to ensure the safety of pregnant women to the greatest extent. "


    "What Marquis Mo said is very true. I will certainly keep it in mind." Zhang nodded, but still worried: "it''s not that I''m frustrated. Even the best doctor can''t ensure the absolute safety of pregnant women and babies. In case of an accident, I''m afraid... I''m just afraid of affecting the princess''s reputation."


    In this era, there is no instrument inspection at all. Even if she delivers the baby herself, I''m afraid she can''t ensure the absolute safety of pregnant women. Once there is a medical accident of dystocia of pregnant women, I''m afraid it will greatly damage the reputation of the women''s and children''s Hospital and even make a storm all over the city.


    Merton was silent and said for a long time: "I know that women have a great risk of childbirth, so I made up my mind to set up a women''s and children''s hospital to ensure the safety of Changle to the greatest extent. As for other pregnant women, especially pregnant women with diseases, when they are sent to the women''s and children''s Hospital, they must explain the risks and consequences one by one and let them sign and pledge voluntarily. In this way, the pressure of the women''s and children''s hospital can be reduced."


    Merton''s starting point is not to shirk responsibility, but in this era, medical conditions are backward, early marriage and early childbirth are the norm, and the rate of dystocia of pregnant women and infant mortality is too high. Even if the women''s and children''s hospital is fully prepared, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no accidents. Only by signing an exemption agreement in advance can it not affect the normal operation of the women''s and children''s hospital.


    Zhang nodded heavily. Although there was an exemption agreement, when she thought of the inevitable dystocia of pregnant women in the future maternal and child hospital, she couldn''t help but cast a shadow on her heart. After all, every family''s lost children and wife would be heartbroken. As a doctor, she was helpless in the face of crisis, and she was speechless.


    Merton thought of the future hospital system and said: "In addition, every pregnant woman admitted must pay ten Wen as insurance money. If there is an accident in the process of giving birth, the maternal and child hospital can pay ten thousand yuan as compensation. In this way, if the delivery is successful, everyone will be happy. Ordinary people can easily bear ten Wen. If there is an accident, their families will also be compensated with ten thousand yuan A little comfort.


    "Thank you for your good advice."


    Zhang''s eyes filled with tears. Merton''s move can be described as a personal creation of the women''s and children''s hospital. Each pregnant woman who has an accident has 10000 yuan as compensation. Coupled with the exemption clause, the pressure faced by the women''s and children''s hospital will be greatly reduced.


    "But what if there are still pregnant women''s families?" Princess Changle frowned. After all, it''s human life. Sometimes it can''t be sent for ten thousand money.


    Merton took a deep breath and said, "at that time, we can only give it to the government."


    Zhang could not help but show a trace of impatience. These relatives were so excited that they could understand that if they were handed over to the government, it would be the best way, but I''m afraid it would be the best way for the continuation of the women''s and children''s hospital.


    Merton said, "of course, this is only a means used in extraordinary times. The key to forging iron is to be hard. If the women''s and children''s hospital wants to reduce disputes, it must vigorously study medical means. One day, the hospital can make every child safely born into the world. That''s the real way to reduce disputes."


    "What Mo Hou taught me is!" Zhang bowed his head and learned.


    Morton nodded with satisfaction and said, "now it''s just an opportunity. Your majesty is vigorously supporting doctors. I will apply to the imperial court for a special fund in the name of the princess to let the women''s and children''s hospital improve the medical skills of delivery. You should take advantage of this opportunity."


    Zhang was overjoyed and nodded again and again. With the support of the imperial court and Merton''s adequate preparation, she believed that the mess in the eyes of the public, the general women''s and children''s hospital would certainly shine, and she heard that if new medical skills were really developed, the imperial court would even be generous of the title reward.


    "In that case, I''ll leave it to you." Merton saw that Princess Changle was also a little tired. With a big hand, he was ready to go home.


    Zhang hurriedly said, "I have one more thing. I hope I can get grace."


    "But it doesn''t matter."


    Merton and Princess Changle stopped.


    "Be bold enough to ask your royal highness to leave a treasure," Zhang said.


    "My ink?" Princess Changle was surprised. You know, the world knows that Merton is brilliant. They all scrambled to ask Merton''s ink, but Zhang did the opposite and asked Princess Changle to leave her ink.


    Zhang said with a bitter smile: "it''s not that the old man has eyes and doesn''t know Mount Tai, but that the women''s and children''s hospital is a women''s hospital. The princess is a model for women in the world. Moreover, the women''s and children''s hospital was created by mohou for the production of the princess. Only the princess can calm the hearts of pregnant women in the world."


    Zhang''s abacus was completely revealed. All the conditions of the women''s and children''s hospital were purchased according to the princess''s standards. She could just use the princess''s name to attract pregnant women to come here for labor. Only after a lot of clinical experience can she ensure the safety of the princess during production, so leaving the princess''s ink treasure is the best policy.


    Princess Changle did not resist this, but took over Zhang''s long prepared pen and ink and closed her eyes for a moment. She heard Merton''s dialogue with Zhang during the production inspection today. Only then did she find out how difficult women in the world are. In addition to the reproductive risk, she is also mixed with the prejudice of son preference. Where was she born a princess like her and enjoyed endless love.


    However, although her origins are different, there is one thing in common today, that is, women all over the world can enjoy the same reproductive conditions and standards as her.


    At that moment, with a flash of inspiration, he wrote: "all women in the world are princesses."


    The original intention of Princess Changle was to think that both pregnant women and daughters should be loved like princesses and should not be looked down upon. However, she did not expect to drive a trend in future generations. Whenever a daughter was born, she would be affectionately called "little princess".

 Chapter 894

    In Chang''an City, wenpo is a popular industry. A well-known wenpo will pay a lot for delivering a child to a rich family.


    In Chang''an City, the most famous woman is grandma Zhao! Many pregnant women delivered by her hand, even many of them are young masters of the Houmen family. They are delivered by grandma Zhao.


    "Please return your royal highness! The old man will be on time to the maternity and child hospital tomorrow." before the Zhao family door, Zhao Apo bowed to the female officer beside the princess of Changle, Liu Eli.


    Liu e, a female official, nodded with satisfaction and said, "you are a smart man. Don''t worry! You won''t regret today''s choice."


    "It is a privilege to be recognized by your royal highness," Zhao Apo bowed.


    After grandma Zhao respectfully sent off the female official, she was relieved.


    "Mother, you deliver babies for dignitaries in Chang''an city. It''s a high income. Why do you want to enter the women''s and children''s hospital with a meager salary? I heard that many stable women who are as famous as their mother refused." grandma Zhao''s daughter looked puzzled. Although the salary given by the women''s and children''s hospital is not low, it''s compared with the income of grandma Zhao when she was a stable woman before, That''s a little meager.


    Granny Zhao shook her head with a bitter smile and said, "the income is not poor. Do you think the money of dignitaries is easy to take? If the mother and son are safe, however, if there is an accident of dystocia of pregnant women, the reputation will be ruined. If you encounter an arrogant family, you may have skin and flesh pain. Do you remember the time when the young master of Xu family was born."


    The daughter couldn''t help but show a trace of pride and said, "of course, I know. That time, Mrs. Xu had difficulty giving birth for three days. Finally, her mother delivered her baby. Her mother and son were safe. Lord Xu suddenly rewarded her mother with 50 yuan."


    This allusion is the most wonderful case of grandma Zhao. It not only won the highest silver reward, but also made grandma Zhao famous.


    Grandma Zhao said with a hint of bitterness on her face: "You only know one, but you don''t know the other. My mother did deliver young master Xu safely, but the suffering of my mother in the past three days and nights was no less than that of Mrs. Xu, who had been crying all the time. Lord Xu was over 40 and took several concubines. Only then did I have a incense flame. Lord Xu said at that time that if young master Xu couldn''t be born safely, I would bury his mother with him. If Mrs. Xu didn''t have one at that time I''m afraid it''s hard for you to see your mother. "


    "Ah! And such things," exclaimed Zhao''s daughter.


    "You haven''t experienced it. You never know how paranoid men in this world are in order to inherit their families." Zhao said with emotion.


    Grandma Zhao''s daughter couldn''t help looking at her mother in amazement.


    "My mother has been able to spend so many years safely. Firstly, it''s luck. Secondly, my mother tried not to pick up a pregnant woman under the age of 16, which saved her reputation. In those years, she worshipped her aunt as a teacher and learned to be a stable mother-in-law, but she saw her aunt beaten half to death and thrown out because of a dystocia. Why have many stable women who are more famous than her mother sold out It is not lost yet. I am the most stable woman in my position. If I can enter the maternal and child hospital, the name of her royal highness can be recklessly pressed on me.


    "That''s why my mother agreed to join the maternal and child hospital." Zhao''s daughter suddenly realized.


    High officials and noble lords are the only ones that have a backing. Secondly, you have not seen the scale of women and children''s hospitals. That''s what Mo Jia specially prepared for the royal highness of the Royal Highness. Everything is built according to the standard of the princess, let alone the doctors. When you say that the dignitaries in Changan are willing to invite me to wait for illiterate, they are willing to go to the maternal and child hospital to enjoy the public. Your Highness''s standard parturition. "


    "That''s naturally going to the maternal and child hospital." Zhao''s daughter said without hesitation. If it was her, she would also choose to go to the maternal and child hospital.


    "It''s not just up to your officials, but even rich people will choose to go to the maternal and child hospital. At that time, where will these stable women come from? At that time, those stable women who don''t want to enter the maternal and child hospital may be unable to maintain their birth plans." Zhao said.


    Zhao''s daughter suddenly realized it and said with admiration, "mother is wise."


    Being a stable mother-in-law in the maternity and children''s hospital not only has no worries, but also has a lot of remuneration. If you refuse the maternity and children''s Hospital, you will live a precarious career as a stable mother-in-law, and will continue to lose the source of customers of rich and noble families, and finally get nothing.


    "Besides, mother still thinks of you." grandma Zhao looked at her daughter softly.


    "For my daughter!" grandma Zhao said in surprise.


    Grandma Zhao flashed a trace of tenderness: "You and my orphaned daughter and widowed mother have been helpless for so many years. It''s very difficult to find a good family for you. Now there is a way out, that is, women study medicine. The matchmaker has not broken the threshold for the woman who entered the women''s medical school in Chang''an city. If you enter the women''s and children''s Hospital for your mother and the technology taught to you by your mother over the years, you can enter the women''s medical school, It''s not difficult to find a good family in the future. "


    "Thank you, mother!" grandma Zhao''s daughter said gratefully.


    Just when the mother and daughter were in deep love, suddenly a rough and crazy voice interrupted them. A strong man said in a loud voice, "grandma Zhao can be here."


    "It''s housekeeper Zhou! I don''t know what to do with me?" grandma Zhao couldn''t help shrinking her eyes when she saw the other party, and her previous memory poured into her mind. It was this person who beat her aunt half to death and threw her out of the door of the Zhou house.


    "My young lady is about to give birth. You should hurry up and serve the Zhou family. If you can give birth to the eldest grandson for the Zhou family, you must be rewarded." housekeeper Zhou said with a rich look.


    Grandma Zhao knew that the money of the Zhou family was not so easy to take. She shook her head and said, "thank you for your love. I have something important to do. I''m afraid it''s difficult to take orders."


    Housekeeper Zhou''s face was cold and said, "grandma Zhao, don''t be arrogant. Do you know the consequences of refusing the Zhou family."


    The Zhou family is the local leader of Chang''an City, and master Zhou works in the court. This time, the eldest grandson of the Zhou family came to invite the most famous grandma Zhao, but she didn''t expect that grandma Zhao dared to refuse the Zhou family.


    If Zhao Apo did not dare to reject Zhou family at ordinary times, but this time, Zhao Apo had enough courage. Now, Lang''s voice said, "Zhou Guan has no idea. His aunt has been drafted by his royal highness, and will report to the women''s and children''s hospital tomorrow. He has ten heads in his old body and dare not delay the affair of his long Royal Highness."


    "Princess Royal, maternal and child hospital!"


    Raise a Babel of criticism of the Zhou family, and the great building of the princess''s highness and the maternal and child hospital has already been bubbling up in Changan. How can he not know that if he takes Zhao Apo away today, I''m afraid he will offend the princess of Changle. Even then, he will not be able to keep him.


    "Congratulations to grandma Zhao and Zhou''s departure." housekeeper Zhou bowed his hand with a smile.


    Grandma Zhao couldn''t help smiling and congratulating herself for joining the women''s and children''s hospital.


    "I''m sorry to send you not far away, but I once saw my young lady. I''m worthy of being a lady of the family. However, I''m too young and my body hasn''t opened. I''m afraid there is a risk of dystocia at the moment. The women''s and children''s hospital will recruit pregnant women tomorrow. The Zhou family would better send the young lady to the women''s and children''s Hospital for labor." grandma Zhao kindly reminded me, The reason why she can be the most famous stable woman in Chang''an city depends on her strong memory. She can accurately remember the wedding time of rich people in Chang''an City and the age of the bride, so as to avoid risks.


    If she remembers correctly, the Zhou family married the 13-year-old young lady before the imperial decree banning early marriage. Now it''s only about 15. In addition, she once paid attention to the Zhou family''s young lady, and her figure is far from growing. In this way, the risk of dystocia of the Zhou family''s young lady is great. Although grandma Zhao has a quarrel with the Zhou family, But let her helplessly watch a young girl xiangxiaoyu meteorite, but she can''t do it.


    However, housekeeper Zhou snorted coldly, "since you don''t want to deliver the baby for the young lady, don''t bother you."


    "It''s the dog that bit LV Dongbin. She doesn''t know the good people." grandma Zhao''s daughter hummed coldly looking at the back of housekeeper Zhou.


    "Forget it!"


    Grandma Zhao sighed in her heart and shook her head helplessly.


    "It is still wise that the mother consented to the call of the highness of the princess early, or it will not escape." Zhao Apo''s daughter was fortunate.


    Zhao Apo nodded, with the power of Zhou family, she really did not refuse the conditions, she could have refused the capital of Zhou family, because she promised the royal highness of the call, the heart can not help women and children''s hospital a lot of gratitude.


    On the second day, when she arrived at the women''s and children''s Hospital, she saw the standardized disinfection process, the female doctors with exquisite medical skills on standby at any time, coupled with the huge palace and the rising high-rise buildings, she couldn''t help being more grateful. When she was a stable mother-in-law, she didn''t have these treatments.


    However, on the fifth day after Zhao joined the women''s and children''s Hospital, she suddenly saw the people of the Zhou family rush in, accompanied by a woman''s painful voice.


    "Please save my young lady and children," old woman Zhou begged.


    Zhang Shi led a group of doctors in a hurry. Looking at the pain, Mrs. Zhou Shao frowned and said, "how many days does it hurt!"


    "It''s been three days!" old man Zhou said humanely.


    Grandma Zhao couldn''t help sighing. She didn''t guess wrong. Mrs. Zhou Shao really had dystocia. At the moment, she looked at the Zhou Guan family and said, "I remind housekeeper Zhou from time to time that Mrs. Zhou has the risk of dystocia. Should she be sent to the hospital as soon as possible?"


    "How could there be such a thing?" the eyes of the Zhou family immediately stared at the housekeeper.


    Housekeeper Zhou immediately looked bitter and said, "I thought she was lying. How do you know that young lady will have dystocia."


    "If there''s something wrong with young lady and children, you''ll wait for me." young master Zhou roared.


    "All right!" Zhang waved his big hand and said, "now is not the time to argue. Since you are familiar with the young lady of the Zhou family, it''s up to you. Who is the young master Zhou? Come and sign the agreement quickly. You''ll be delivered with dystocia. We can only do our best, and you can only bear all the consequences."


    In this case, Mrs. Zhou Shao is already extremely dangerous. Even the insurance can''t be used.


    "I''ll come, I''ll come." young master Zhou hurried to follow a doctor.


    The old lady of Zhou suddenly looked a little moved. She leaned in front of Zhang and said, "this female doctor, my Zhou family has always been thin. I''ve found someone to calculate that this baby is a man. You must keep my Zhou family''s incense."


    Zhang Shih opened the silver handed by Mrs ZHOU, and looked at her with disgust. "I''m sorry, sir, but your royal highness is guaranteed, and all the hard labor women will be guaranteed."


    At the moment, she pushed open the door of the delivery room and went in. Mrs. Zhou Shao''s situation was extremely critical and needed her to be watched by the doctor all the time.


    "Baoda!"


    Mrs. Chou was not allowed to stay where he was, but his grandson, who lived in the Zhou Dynasty, was about to lose his temper. But he thought that this was the place where the Royal Highness was prepared.


    After two tense hours of rescue, the door of the delivery room finally opened, and Zhang and grandma Zhao came out tired.


    "Doctor, where are the wife and children?" master Zhou said urgently.


    "Mrs. Zhou Shao kept it, and it was already late when the child came." Zhang said with a sad face.


    The people couldn''t help sighing in their hearts. It''s lucky to be able to keep the adult. Only Mrs. Zhou is unwilling. If she had sent it earlier, maybe.


    Mrs. Zhou''s tragedy is a case in point. After the rescue of women and children''s Hospital, the number of pregnant women has been rescued continuously. Immediately after the fame of the city of Changan, they immediately attracted many pregnant women in Changan city. After all, they could spend some money to keep their wives and children''s lives and enjoy the treatment of their highness. This is something that no one can refuse.


    As for ordinary families, the women''s and children''s hospital provided free spinach and birth inspection, which made it difficult for them to resist the temptation. In only half a month, the women''s and children''s hospital immediately became popular in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 895

    Naturally, Zhang''s generation will take care of the affairs of the women''s and children''s hospital. Merton wholeheartedly accompanies the pregnant Princess Changle at home. Even the most popular western region event in Chang''an City, Merton has no interest and has not taken a half step out of the ink house at all, which makes Hu merchants waiting for Merton disappointed.


    Fortunately, the acquisition of the Mohist school has not stopped. However, the children of the Mohist school still spend a lot of money on books and seeds in the western regions. They have not bought some strange things for Princess Changle to play with. However, all this has lost the pride of the Mohist school, which always makes people feel depressed.


    "Please look, sir. This is a medical book recording countries in the western regions, which can be used as a reference for our doctors in the Tang Dynasty." although they didn''t go out, good things kept coming to the Mo mansion. Seeing the medical book in front of them, Princess Changle was like a treasure.


    Merton''s cheek was drawn. It was just some medical skills that had passed the Tang Dynasty, but it fully spent five golden leaves in Mojia village. However, Rao was so. The behavior of buying horse bones in Mojia village could not be stopped.


    Fortunately, this western region event was not without harvest. A Hu merchant presented a small bag of apple seeds and a well preserved apple to Princess Changle. It is said that this is the only one that can be preserved after a full box of apples from Persia.


    Looking at some dehydrated red apples in front of him, he nodded with satisfaction. The apples in front of him were not as big as those in later generations, but the fruits transported by Hu Shang were already excellent, but the appearance was not bad.


    "Young master, the Hu merchant is still waiting."


    Merton looked at the red apple in front of him, and his heart moved. Lang said, "let him wait a moment and let the Mohist children carve a pure gold apple and give it to him. No, it''s not a reward, but a gold apple for his red apple."


    Immediately, a Mohist child came in and took a look at the apple, nodded and bowed down. The most important thing Mohist needs is carving talent, which is almost the basic skill of Mohist children.


    "Exchange gold apples for red apples!" Princess Changle rolled her eyes and knew that Merton''s black sheep had made another mistake.


    Fuber was also stunned. How precious should this apple be when he bought such a large pure gold.


    "Why don''t you think it''s worth it?" Merton smiled at the surprised faces of the people.


    "But it''s just a fruit. Can it be as precious as Johor rice?" Princess Changle wondered. Merton''s pen is as crazy as hearing Johor rice.


    "Naturally, it can''t compare with Johor rice, but it''s not far away. If Johor rice doubles the yield in the south of the Yangtze River, and this fruit can benefit the north of the Yellow River infinitely, what''s its value?" Merton said mysteriously.


    "Oh!"


    The people were shocked. They couldn''t help but listen. If this can really benefit the Yellow River, this gold is naturally extremely worth it.


    "Although the fruit has been dehydrated here, it is not stored properly. If it is my hand, it will greatly prolong the storage time of apples. It is still fresh for half a year. In half a year, the merchants of Datang are enough to sell the fruit to the whole Datang. Madam can imagine that the fruit can be used by the people of Datang for half a year, and it is cold most of the time In winter, what a treasure it will be, how can it not be worth this gold. "Merton said with a smile.


    Apple is the easiest fruit to store in the future. Even if it is stored in the local way for a few months, it will not be a problem. If it is directly put in the cold storage, it will be enough to eat all year round. It can be imagined that once apple is popularized in Datang, what a broad market it will be.


    Moreover, there are no fruits in Datang winter. Apples mature in October and stored for half a year, which is enough to support them until March and April next year. When flowers and fruits are everywhere, it simply solves the fruit problem in Datang winter.


    "Of course, the most important thing is that this apple is sweet and juicy. It tastes very good and is most suitable for pregnant women such as women." Merton cut it gently with a knife, and a thin layer of apple skin was cut down to reveal the white pulp inside.


    Merton cut the pulp again, and the baby left the seeds. Then he handed the apple pulp cut into small pieces to Princess Changle. Changle left recently and just had some crisp apples to appetizer.


    Princess Changle picked up a piece of fruit and put it into her mouth. Suddenly, a sweet juice filled her taste buds. She praised again and again: "it''s really delicious."


    Such fruit is delicious and can be preserved for a long time. If it can be popularized on a large scale, it will benefit not only the north of the Yellow River, but also the south of the Yangtze River. In this way, Merton can exchange an apple sized gold for such a broad market, which can be said to be worth thousands of dollars.


    "I said, my husband will not do business at a loss." Princess Changle had a big appetite and ate the flesh of an apple in twos and threes.


    "Young master, the Golden Apple has been carved." after a while, Fubo came and reported that he was holding a pure gold apple, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    The children of Mohism are highly skilled. In addition, pure gold is very easy to carve. It can be said that the carving of this apple is very similar.


    "Then give it to the Hu merchant!" Merton waved a big hand. A piece of pure gold is far less expensive than the small bag of apple seeds in his hand, which is the guarantee of winter fruits in the future.


    "Yes!" Fu Bo bowed away, and soon there was a surprise cheering from Hu Shang outside the house.


    Soon, the story of mojiazi buying a red apple with a pure gold apple spread all over Chang''an City as quickly as possible.


    In the west market, a group of Hu merchants were excited. Merton''s promise was still valid. Apple was not a rare thing in the western regions. Many people heard it, and many people couldn''t help but regret it. If they sent the apple, it would be their golden apple.


    The citizens of Chang''an are even more talkative. Even though the behavior of the black sheep of the Mohist school comes every year, they still smack at Merton''s great pen.


    "It''s just an exotic fruit. The Mexican family bought it with fist sized gold. It''s a great loser." a miser like landlord was distressed. I''m afraid all his possessions were not worth the gold, and the Mexican family used it to buy a fruit.


    "I heard that the fruits of this heavy gold were eaten by the highness of the princess. This is probably the most expensive fruit in history." a citizen smack a tongue, and a fruit is bought with the same large gold. I am afraid the emperors are reluctant to do so since ancient times.


    "What do you know? When did Mojia Zi do business at a loss? This fruit is an exotic fruit. Mojia Zi took its fruit and cultivated it by Mojia. Everyone in the world can enjoy this fruit at that time. I''m afraid you won''t be jealous when you see Mojia village making money." a merchant snorted.


    It is well known that mojiazi spent a lot of money on exotic books and seeds, and a spinach and Johor rice have proved the correctness of this method.


    People may not know that Johor rice is far away in Lingnan, but spinach is shining in Chang''an city. Mojia village has made a lot of money just by buying spinach leaves, not to mention that since Merton allocated half of the spinach to the women''s and children''s Hospital, the price of spinach has soared by 30%. Now, Mojia village has earned more than 100 times more money than Merton bought spinach seeds.

 Chapter 896

    Merton ignored the hot discussion in Chang''an city. When Apple became popular in the Tang Dynasty, they naturally knew how cost-effective the business was.


    However, just as Merton was living a world of two with Princess Changle, a news interrupted the peace of the Merton house.


    "Young master, Li Yun is leading Xiangfu''s line to Chang''an city." Fubo hurried to report.


    Merton did not move in his heart, but showed a look of silence and said, "so, Li Yun actually moved the old stubborn of Xiangfu''s pulse?"


    Fubo shook his head and said, "according to the news of the children of the Mohists, only more than 20 people followed Li Yun. There is not even a tenth of the Xiangfu family."


    Xiangfu''s family has been living in seclusion. Compared with the past, there are more Mohist children inherited. Of course, the most legitimate one is Li Yun.


    "More than twenty people are enough. As long as Xiangfu''s pulse is no longer a frog at the bottom of the well, the rest will be unable to sit down soon." Merton is in a good mood. He has no prejudice against Xiangfu''s pulse. After all, Mohist ink skills are all inclusive. Mohist village alone is weak. It is very difficult for Mohist to make ordinary people accept Mohist ideas, and Xiangfu''s pulse, Is the best choice to expand Mohism. Seeing the strength of Mohism''s ink technology, Merton didn''t believe that Xiangfu''s pulse and was moved by it.


    However, just before the arrival of most of Xiangfu''s people, Li Yun led a thin old man in ink clothes to quietly appear outside the east gate of Chang''an city. If Merton came here again, he would surely recognize that this person was Tian Mou who wantonly spread the secret skills of Mohism.


    "It''s a luxury to pave the road with bricks. As far as I know, the brick road has lasted thousands of miles. The chaotang Treasury is empty, and the Mohist family simply put the Mohist''s concept of saving money behind them." Tian Mou scolded. Even if he came out of the mountain again, he still doesn''t like all kinds of things about Merton.


    Li Yun said with a wry smile: "second uncle, you''ve seen the advantages of brick road all the way. Although it costs a little money, you can go through both wind and rain. Otherwise, take the heavy rain the day before yesterday, you can stop us in Luoyang for three or five days. Moreover, the brick road is durable and durable. It''s a good policy not to use corvee to build the road every year."


    In the past, the main project was to build roads. This year, with the prevalence of brick roads, most of the people''s corvee was used to build brick roads. For a time, the brick roads in Datang spread again, even across the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, or the good way from north to South first.


    "Brick road is not mentioned for the time being, but what''s the matter with the legendary Mohist son in Chang''an City exchanging gold with fist size for a fruit?" Tian Mou snorted coldly.


    "This is just a horse bone bought by Mozi!" Li Yun waved his hand. He had personally dealt with Mozi. Naturally, he didn''t think that Morton was such a person.


    Tian Mou Leng hummed, "even if you buy horse bones with thousands of money, you still spend thousands of money, which is contrary to the behavior of the Mohist school."


    Mohism has always acted in coarse clothes and shoes, which is the consistent style of Mohism. Merton''s behavior has been divorced from Li Yun''s impression of Mohism and can''t help but say nothing.


    Tian Mou said with a smile: "Mozi was extravagant and induced the imperial court to overhaul the brick road, but he didn''t know the opportunity for the prosperity of the Xiangfu family of Mozi. The brick road in the world was unimpeded, but it was blocked by the river. Only the Xiangfu family in the world had the most exquisite bridge building skills. Once the bridge was built for the rivers in the world, the world would be unimpeded. Isn''t it in line with the Mohist''s concept of loving the world."


    Li Yun looked at Tian MOU with an excited face. He couldn''t help but stop talking. He wanted to remind Tian Mou about building a bridge. The arch bridge he designed lost to Merton''s beam bridge. Even this time, the design drawing of Weishui bridge was provided by Merton.


    When he admitted that he and mojiazi competed to build a bridge, but failed, the whole Xiangfu family was in an uproar. Then Li Yun put the drawing of the combination of iron cable bridge and beam bridge in front of the Xiangfu family, the whole Xiangfu family was half convinced, and the bridge drawing of the combination of arch bridge and beam bridge completely shocked the Xiangfu family.


    That''s why he had the opportunity to bring out more than 20 children of the Xiangfu family. After all, even the extremely conservative Xiangfu family, who has lived in seclusion for hundreds of years, can''t stand the temptation of the Weishui bridge.


    "Come on, I''ll see the arch bridge you built in Chang''an city!" Tian Mou waved and walked into Chang''an city.


    On the Qujiang arch bridge, Tian Mou looked at the arch bridge at his feet with satisfaction and said, "yes, quite the essence of your grandfather."


    The Qujiang arch bridge built by Li Yun uses Mohist machinery, coupled with the support of Mohist money and the unique bridge building technology of Xiangfu family, the arch bridge built by Li Yun is the best bridge seen by Tian Mou. Even in terms of load-bearing, Qujiang girder bridge is probably half better than Zhaozhou Bridge.


    "Nephew, I''m ashamed. I can''t compare with my ancestors." Li Yun said with a bitter smile. After Li Chun built Zhaozhou Bridge, he was famous all over the world. However, when he built Qujiang arch bridge, he was defeated by the beam bridge of mojiazi. The world praised mojiazi. Where do you remember Li Yun.


    "You just lost under this bridge!" Tian Mou looked at the busy Qujiang girder bridge across from him. Even if he was not close, he could still see that the traffic on the Qujiang girder bridge was endless. In contrast, the Qujiang arch bridge built by Li Yun had a lot of people, but most of them were pedestrians and there were few vehicles. In this regard alone, the arch bridge has lost.


    Li Yun nodded solemnly and said, "yes, this is the beam bridge. It''s effortless to walk across the bridge, so even if passing carriages detour for several miles, they will choose to pass through the beam bridge."


    In front of them, a fully loaded truck did not hesitate to turn in front of the arch bridge and went straight to the beam bridge. After all, no matter how well the arch bridge was built, there was a certain slope, and the fully loaded truck did not necessarily go up. What''s more, some rickshaw drivers who cherish horsepower did not take the arch bridge even if they were empty.


    "Liang Qiao!" Tian Mou couldn''t help but be silent. At that time, he argued with mojiazi. Although he was eloquent, he found that in practice, Xiangfu''s pulse was indeed too much worse than Xiangli''s pulse. The only thing he could do was bridge. He finally agreed to go out of the mountain with Li Yun, just to prove the strength of Xiangfu''s pulse to mojiazi.


    When he stepped on the bridge and touched the cold concrete, he couldn''t help sneering: "the workmanship is rough and outrageous. The Mohist is just relying on the benefits of steel and cement and some fantastic ideas! There is no art of building a bridge."


    In the eyes of outsiders, Tian Mou''s satire of Mohism will certainly be treated like a fool, but Li Yun knows that what Tian Mou said is the truth. The beam bridge built by Merton can be said to be made of reinforced concrete. Even ordinary children can be built with these materials.


    "However, this is the most powerful part of Mojia village. They always have an endless stream of new materials, which are easier than the craft we have studied for many years." Li Yun said bitterly.


    When he competed at that time, he naturally knew where he had lost. The Qujiang arch bridge was the crystallization of the bridge repair technology of the Tang Dynasty, and the Qujiang beam bridge was the first show of new materials in Mojia village. As a result, the beam bridge built by Merton was a complete victory.


    Just like Xiangfu''s vein and Mojia village''s vein, Xiangfu''s vein pays more attention to theory and technology, while Mojia village devotes itself to studying materials. Although sometimes technology and theory can bring incredible effects, the fundamental bearing technology is materials, let alone the industry of Mojia village.


    Tian Mou sneered: "don''t worry, I laid out a year ago and cracked a lot of the secret skills of Mohism and spread them to major workshops in Chang''an city. Now it''s time to harvest. Maybe we can get rid of the material restrictions of Mohist village. At that time, Xiangfu''s pulse won''t be subject to Mohist Zi."


    Looking at Tian Mou''s proud look, Li Yun couldn''t help smiling bitterly. It seems that uncle Tian is too optimistic. I''m afraid there is little technology that can surpass the Mohist village in Datang.


    "Yes, I''ll know when I wait for Dongshi." Tian Mou said confidently. At the beginning, he spread the craft of Mojia village in Chang''an City, and these achievements will naturally appear in Dongshi.


    Chang''an east city, the two soon came to an iron shop. Tian moulang said, "come and bring the best steel bars in your shop."


    "All right!" a shopkeeper waved his hand and a waiter lifted out a heavy steel bar.


    Tian Mou stretched out his hand and bumped. He found a fulcrum and broke it with the lever principle. He bent down. He couldn''t help laughing: "this is your steel!"


    "That''s natural. These are the superior steel bars in Chang''an city. We spent a lot of effort to crack the steel-making process in Mojia village." the shopkeeper said proudly.


    Tian Mou was speechless with anger. He cracked these steel-making technologies and passed them to the steel-making workshop, but he didn''t expect that the other party still used his old set, and there was no progress at all.


    "What about the steel in Mojia village?" Tian Mou sneered.


    "This craft comes from Mohist school, which is naturally comparable to that of Mohist village, but now Mohist village has developed the second generation of steel, which is slightly better than us." the shopkeeper boasted.


    Tian Mou was immediately disappointed. At that time, when he cracked the steel in Mojia village, he had seen the steel in Mojia village. Even at that time, the steel produced in Mojia village was better than these steels. These workshops took the technology provided by him and did not make progress, but there was a backward trend.


    Later, when he was in Dongshi, he found that many workshops were using the Mohist technology he had originally spread. However, only a few improved their technology. Rao is so, but it is still far from Mohist products.


    "It seems that I still think highly of these workshops." Tian Mou said helplessly.


    According to the bridge repair drawings of mojiazi, the most needed is high-quality steel. It seems that Xiangfu can''t get rid of mojiazi in a short time.

 Chapter 897

    "The Mohist Xiangfu family has entered Beijing in one vein!"


    Since they couldn''t get rid of the Mojia village, the Xiangfu''s pulse was naturally no longer hidden. The next day, Tian Mou and Li Yun quietly joined the Xiangfu''s pulse outside the east gate, openly raised the banner of Xiangfu''s pulse and passed through the East Gate with great fanfare.


    Just as the Xiangfu family had just entered Chang''an City, the news immediately spread in Chang''an city.


    "Xiangfu''s pulse is coming! The strength of Mojia village has grown by three points."


    "That''s not the case. In those days, Mohism was divided into three parts. Although the three veins were Mohism, they had not communicated with each other for a long time. They didn''t deal with each other in the Qin Dynasty."


    "That is, a few years ago, Deng Ling''s pulse was also unyielding to the Mohists and left Chang''an city."


    "Last year, the Mohist''s ink skills leaked out, and Li Chun competed with the Mohist to build a bridge......"


    The stories about Mohism have long been well known by the people of Chang''an. In addition, the news that Mohism''s two veins challenge Mohism from time to time in recent years makes the people of Chang''an enjoy talking about it. Mohism is also good. Sometimes the internal struggle of other hundred schools seems to be more cruel.


    "However, it is said that the purpose of Xiangfu''s entering Beijing this time is the Weishui bridge, and its drawings are drawn by Mohist Zi."


    The people in Chang''an talked about it one after another, and some people with intentions could not help but show a trace of concern. At the beginning, if Xiangfu''s line and mojiazi''s line cooperated, even if they did not belong, the momentum of Mojia still grew a lot.


    Naturally, hundreds of people stared at the movement of Xiangfu''s pulse. When they saw that Xiangfu''s pulse entered Chang''an City, they found an inn to stay in an individual hospital. They didn''t have any contact with Mojia village. They were relieved.


    A Mohist village has already put a lot of pressure on all schools of thought. If you add another Xiangfu pulse with no inferior strength, wouldn''t it be even worse.


    Fortunately, Xiangfu''s pulse and Mojia village did not deal with each other. Especially before Tian Mou spread the secret skills of Mojia, the gambling fight between Li Yun and Mojia Zi had already spread in Chang''an City, and everyone knows that the purpose of Xiangfu''s pulse is the Weishui bridge.


    It can be said that the construction of Weishui bridge has long been popular in Chang''an city. After all, it is the lifeblood of travel in the north of Chang''an city. It is of great significance and has attracted the attention of the government and the public.


    "Chang''an city! Here we are."


    Even though they are far away in Shandong, they can still hear the legendary story of Mohist revival when Mohist village team led by Mohist son entered Chang''an city.


    However, it was just Mojia village. It was like a distant relative separated by several generations. Moreover, the distant relative had quarreled and broke off. Naturally, they were not happy. Today, they entered Chang''an city with Xiangfu''s family. They firmly believe that they can also make Xiangfu''s family famous in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Mohist Xiangfu''s pulse can be in!" suddenly a sharp voice came from outside the other courtyard.


    Tian Mou led the crowd to open the door and saw a eunuch waiting at the door.


    "I don''t know what to call my father-in-law, Mo Tian Mou?" Tian Mou arched his hand.


    "I''ve seen childe Li in Qujiang arch bridge that day," said pound, smiling at Li yundao behind Tian Mou.


    "Qujiang arch bridge? Li Yun''s head couldn''t help but blow, and he turned his head hard," could it be that Li and Mo family... Mo Hou had a competition at that time, and His Majesty was there. "


    "Yes, at the beginning, childe Li''s ink skills were extraordinary. His majesty saw it in his eyes." pound smiled.


    Li Yun couldn''t help wiping a cold sweat. At the beginning, he rushed to find Merton''s trouble, but he didn''t expect that all this was seen by Li Shimin.


    "It''s Li menglang, and please ask your father-in-law to apologize to your majesty for Li." Li Yun said bitterly. He didn''t know that Li Shimin was happy to see others asking Merton for trouble, but he was still nervous.


    Pound laughed and said, "forgive me. Your majesty is too happy to see such a young talent? How can you blame me? The old slave came today to convey his Majesty''s order to let childe Li go to the Tai Chi Hall tomorrow morning to explain the Weishui bridge to the ministers in the court."


    "Ah!" Li Yun was surprised.


    "Thank you for your love!" Li Yun said with surprise and joy. If Merton were here, he would scoff at Li Shimin''s means of buying people''s hearts and look up proudly. It''s old-fashioned!


    The next morning, in the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gathered.


    All the officials are dignified, because everyone knows that the most important topic of today''s morning exercise is the construction of the Weishui bridge, the first super project of the Tang Dynasty, and the one who presides over such a super project is the Mojia Xiangfu family.


    "I hope this phase husband''s vein is not the second Mohist family." all officials couldn''t help but say in secret.


    "Mohist Xiangfu''s pulse Tian Mou, see your majesty!"


    "After Li Chun, Li Yun sees his majesty!"


    Li Yun and Tian Mou solemnly to Li Shimin


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Yun and Tian Mou solemnly saluted Li Shimin.


    "Please get up quickly. One is the great sage of Mohism left behind in the wilderness, and the other is a famous family. I''m very pleased to have decided to contribute to the imperial court now." Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "The idea of Mohism has always been for the common people in the world. As long as it is beneficial to the people in the world, we Mohism are duty bound." Tian Mou said generously.


    "The idea of Mohism is indeed admirable!" Li Shimin nodded. It is true of Mohism in history, and wrote tragic annals one after another.


    "It''s the honor of Mohism to be recognized by his majesty." Tian Mou said modestly.


    Li Shimin said in a loud voice, "today I invite Xiangfu''s family to come out of the mountain, just to personally confirm whether the construction of Weishui bridge is feasible!"


    All officials could not help but look straight. They immediately knew that today''s business was coming.


    Tian Mou looked at Li Yun, and Li Yun said in a loud voice: "after returning to your majesty, the grass people returned to the Xiangfu family, they convened the skilled craftsmen of the Mohist school. After several months of calculation and production, they finally agreed that the Weishui bridge is feasible, and made the model of the Weishui bridge for your Majesty''s review."


    As soon as Li Yun''s words fell, two bodyguards carried a three foot long bridge model in front of all civil and military officials.


    "It was made of steel."


    "The bridge body is lifted by a steel cable!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All officials saw that the bridge model in front of them was not in an uproar. For a long time, the Weishui bridge has only spread in people''s ears, but the specific structure is unknown. However, when they see the true face of the Weishui bridge today, they can''t help but in an uproar.


    "Is this bridge really feasible?"


    At the moment, even Li Shimin can''t help frowning. He can''t help but feel deeply worried. It seems that he is a little anxious. He is a little anxious to hear that Mohism can solve the bridge problem in the world.

 Chapter 898

    Li Yun solemnly said: "Your Majesty, this bridge is absolutely feasible. This bridge seems to be an iron cable bridge, but in fact, it applies the theory of arch bridge incisively and vividly."


    "Yellow mouth child, it''s nonsense. It''s clearly a piece of iron cable bridge and beam bridge. What''s the matter? It involves an arch bridge." a waiter from the Ministry of work angrily scolded.


    Li Yun smiled and said, "you can''t see the trace of the arch bridge if you look at it like this, but if you look at it upside down!"


    Li Yun did not go on, but raised the model and turned it upside down, impressively turning it into a replica of the arch bridge. The so-called Weishui bridge impressively turns the arch bridge upside down.


    Li yunlang said: "The fact that the arch bridge is solid and feasible has been verified for thousands of years. There is no doubt about this. My husband''s vein has been immersed in this for thousands of years. As for the cognition of the arch bridge, it can be said to give up who I am. The Weishui bridge takes the steel cable as the arch and hangs the bridge body one by one. It seems that the bridge body is extremely heavy, but it spreads its strength on the steel cable and applies the theory of the arch bridge in turn It is said that it is a marvelous work. From the perspective of the grass people, this bridge is feasible in theory. "


    It can be said that there is no rival in the world in terms of arch bridges. One is Li Chun''s Zhaozhou Bridge and the other is Li Yun''s Qujiang arch bridge. It can be said that this has been personally confirmed.


    "This is only theoretically feasible, and in this way, the success or failure of the bridge is all tied to a small steel cable, which is very ridiculous!" the waiter of the Ministry of industry sniffed, which immediately attracted the laughter of many ministers.


    Li Yun was immediately flushed with excitement. He wanted to argue, but he couldn''t talk about it.


    "Ling Shilang, the steel cable you mentioned is not a small one, but a super strong steel cable composed of hundreds of high-strength steel wires. This steel cable is three feet thick." Merton stepped out proudly and solved the siege for Li Yun.


    Ling Shilang said with a sneer: "mohou takes it for granted. You know, the Weihe River in the north of Chang''an city is more than a mile wide. With such a long length and the weight of the bridge, how can it be borne by a mere steel cable."


    He had never seen such an absurd thing in his life in the Ministry of construction.


    Merton laughed and said, "turning the impossible into the possible is the magic of Mohist ink technology. Moreover, Mo once saw a word that Mohist sages encouraged future generations in Mozi''s Secret works. Mo also asked you for advice."


    "Mozi''s Secret works" Li Yun''s eyes lit up. He had heard about the legendary Mozi''s Secret works for a long time and didn''t expect to hear Merton''s oral statement.


    "It''s hard to cross the ocean with a penny. People paddle and start a big sailboat.


    A small tree, weak without wind and rain, hundreds of miles of forest, side by side, resistant to the cold of the year. "


    Merton''s Langsheng voice, which was full of cadence, suddenly became silent. The words were simple and unadorned, but the philosophy contained in them was simple, easy to understand and very profound.


    Li Yun''s eyes lit up and he became more interested in the secret works of Mozi in Merton''s mouth. These words are simple and clear, but they contain the concept of Mohism.


    Merton continued: "Han Feizi once said that he took one hand alone. Although he was silent, it was difficult to sound alone. However, during the military parade that year, tens of thousands of people applauded.


    As we all know, one chopstick can be gently broken, and ten chopsticks can be tightly held in a group, but they can''t hurt half of them with all their strength. Now, the same is true of Mohist steel cables. The most popular Mohist machinery is the kilo arm. One person''s strength is enough to lift a kilo of weight. In addition to Mohist ink technology, the steel wire rope composed of small steel wires is of great merit ¡£


    The suspension cable designed by the Mohist School for the construction of the Weishui bridge is three feet wide, just like tens of thousands of steel wires tightly held together, and the strength it can bear is multiplied by ten times and one hundred times. Not to mention that one suspension cable is not enough, the Mohist school has prepared four steel suspension cables for it at once. Let alone that the current carriage is only carrying 5000 kg, even if it is increased by ten times, there will be no damage Problem. "


    Merton said, and there was a silence in the hall,


    "One chopstick was slightly broken and ten chopsticks were tightly held together. This statement really contains great truth." Li Shimin sighed.


    Merton''s theory seems incredible, but it is not difficult to understand. I''m afraid ordinary people have no choice but to cut them into sticks the size of chopsticks. I''m afraid even a ten-year-old child can easily break them one by one, and the steel suspension cable of Weishui bridge is this principle.


    Li Yun is even more thoughtful. He has always believed that Mozi''s success today only depends on Mozi''s Secret works. However, Mozi''s ability to find the secret skill of building bridges from the inspirational words of Mozi''s sages makes him admire it.


    "Moreover, there is only one Weihe River. Among the rivers in the Tang Dynasty, it ranks the top 20 at most. If we can''t conquer the Weihe River, let alone the Huaihe River, the Yellow River and even the Yangtze River, which are wider and more complex, now the brick roads in the world are unblocked, but they are blocked by the river, so it is imperative to build a bridge." Merton said proudly.


    In an instant, Merton found the best basis for the construction of Weihe River Bridge technically and theoretically.


    Many courtiers nodded. The Weihe River Bridge opened the northern passage of Chang''an City, which is of great importance, but it is still inferior to the bridges across the Huaihe River, the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. The Weishui bridge built today is only the least difficult. Only by building this bridge can it be possible to build a longer and more complex bridge in the future.


    Seeing that Merton was about to convince everyone, suddenly a voice suddenly appeared, but the matter of Weishui bridge was in crisis again.


    The Chamberlain of the Ministry of household proudly listed and said, "not to mention whether the bridge is feasible or not, it is difficult to achieve by using materials alone. In addition to underwater, steel is mostly used on the surface of the water. In this way, how much steel and money will be consumed, I''m afraid the government''s finance is also difficult to bear."


    Li Shimin was stunned and couldn''t help looking at Dai Zhou. Dai Zhou also said with a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, although his Highness the prince reformed the post station to save a sum of money for the imperial court, there are too many places to spend money in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid he can''t afford to spend too much money to build the Weishui bridge."


    Li Shimin frowned, turned his head and looked at the Ministry of work and said, "what about the Ministry of work? The prince has not allocated enough money to the Ministry of work before."


    Zhang Liang, the minister in charge of the Ministry of work, stood out and said, "Your Majesty, although the crown prince has allocated a batch of money, this year the Ministry of work has built a number of brick roads and overhauled the Yellow River and Huaihe River while the people were serving corvee. Now the Ministry of work has little money in its hands."


    The Weishui bridge is dominated by Mohists. Mohist village provides raw materials, and Mohist Xiangfu takes charge of the construction. However, the Ministry of work can''t get involved at all, so it''s naturally unwilling to pay for it.


    Li Yun and Tian Mou could not help but change their faces. He did not expect that there were so many people in the chaotang who did not welcome the Mohists. This time, the construction of the Weishui bridge was said to benefit the country and the people, but it was difficult.

 Chapter 899

    "Your Majesty, it''s a dry season now. If you miss this time, I''m afraid it will be delayed for another year in the future." Tian Mou said painfully.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be embarrassed. He frowned and asked, "I don''t know the budget of this bridge?"


    Tian moulang said, "Your Majesty, the budget of this bridge is 200000 yuan, and it is expected to be completed in five years."


    "200000 yuan!"


    The court was in an uproar! Even Li Shimin gave up the idea of taking money from the internal Treasury. I''m afraid 200000 Guan will empty the internal Treasury soon.


    There was a dilemma in the hall. The Weishui bridge was extremely important and had to be repaired. However, if it was built, it would cost too much money. Moreover, a small Weishui bridge would cost 200000 yuan, and there were many bridges to be built all over the country. It was simply a bottomless pit.


    "Your Majesty, although the imperial court has no money, there is a place where there is a lot of money. Let alone 200000 yuan, you can easily take out any more." Ling Shilang of the Ministry of work said in a strange manner. For a moment, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton. I''m afraid the only bank in Mojia village can take out so much money now, It is said that the deposit of Mojia Village Bank alone has exceeded 1.5 million yuan.


    "I''m afraid there''s nothing the boy can do," Morton shook his head.


    Ling Shilang of the Ministry of work sneered: "just now there were Mohists who said that as long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, Mohists must be duty bound. Now mohou has the ability to spend 200000 yuan to build the Weishui bridge, but he is indifferent. How can Mohists be the same, and how can mohou be so far behind!"


    Tian Mou''s face turned red, but he complained that the Mexican family had money and didn''t help.


    Merton sneered: "no, although there are many deposits in the Bank of Mojia village, they are all the money of the people all over the world. How dare the Mojia family misappropriate them wantonly. Moreover, the boy once suggested to his majesty that the bridge should be built with the investment of Mojia village. In the future, he only needs to charge a bridge fee for 25 years, but his majesty categorically rejected the boy''s kindness."


    "Twenty five years bridge fee!"


    People''s hearts moved. Li Yun also said just now that this bridge can be used for a hundred years. The Mojia village can charge 25 years of tolls. Isn''t the remaining 75 years in vain?


    But Dai Zhou shook his head and said, "mohou really has a good calculation. The Weishui bridge is the only channel from Chang''an to the north. At least tens of thousands of people a day. Even if each person receives only a penny a time, it will be enough to buy 400000 Guan in 25 years. Mohou makes too much money in this business!"


    "The Mohists are too greedy!" many imperial censors criticized one after another.


    Merton retorted: "twenty five years is only about double the value-added. What''s this? Even the interest deposited in the Bank of Mojia village is not as good. Moreover, if this 200000 yuan is in the hands of Mo, it''s not uncommon to turn it ten times, let alone just double it."


    All officials could not help choking. The interest deposited in the Bank of Mojia village was 5% per year. Even if it was deposited for 20 years, it would be enough to double the principal, let alone five years. Moreover, the ability of Mojia Zi to turn stone into gold was recognized by the imperial court. It is not impossible for 200000 Guan to become 2 million Guan in the hands of Merton.


    "But in addition, there is another way. The bridge can be built without a share of money from the imperial court." Merton said.


    "Don''t come as soon as possible." Li Shimin glared at Merton. He didn''t like Merton to sell off.


    Merton proudly said: "now it''s almost the end of the year, and the Mojia village is about to pay taxes. If the Mojia tax is used to build the Weishui bridge, it will certainly make the Weishui bridge start on schedule."


    Dai Zhou frowned and said, "as far as I know, the taxes in Mojia village are only tens of thousands of Guan every year, but far less than 200000 Guan!"


    Merton said: "the construction period of the Weishui bridge is also divided into five years, and it is only 40000 yuan a year. The tax of Mojia village is enough. Within five years, the imperial court will surely see a shocking Weishui bridge."


    "Such a method is also feasible!" all officials nodded one after another.


    "OK, let''s take this strategy," Li Shimin said.


    Dai Zhou was bitter for a while. The tax in Mojia village was not a small amount. As a result, the household lost a large amount of income.


    Ling Shilang of the Ministry of work and Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, looked at each other, and a trace of shame flashed. He originally wanted to go to the Carmo family once. As long as he postponed it for a year, he summoned the skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of household to study the drawings of the Weishui bridge, and surely he could take the super project in his hand.


    Now there are people in the Mojia village who have money and the Mojia Xiangfu family has technology. As long as the Weishui bridge is built, other bridges of the imperial court will certainly fall into the hands of the Mojia in the future. In this way, the position of the Ministry of work will be extremely embarrassing.


    "But there''s another problem with this bridge that needs your Majesty''s instructions," Morton said suddenly with a trace of shyness on his face.


    Li Shimin felt a thump in his heart. He immediately knew that Merton must be bad. At that moment, he hummed coldly, "say it."


    Morton smiled shyly and said, "according to the boy''s original design, the pier column of this bridge is more than ten feet tall. I''m afraid it''s beyond the system."


    "More than ten feet?" all officials couldn''t help taking a breath. A pier was so high. It can be seen how grand the scale of the bridge is.


    "How could it be so high?" Linghu dehu, the Minister of rites, frowned.


    Merton explained: "in order not to affect the boating on the Weihe River, the bridge deck is at least five feet away from the water surface. In this way, cars and horses travel north and south, and ships can flow on the Weihe River."


    In this era, water transportation is still the main force of transportation. The water transportation on the Weihe River is extremely developed. Merton is not like breaking the boatman''s livelihood when building the bridge.


    "OK, I''ll allow the overstepping this time." Li Shimin nodded without hesitation. The bridge was built by the imperial court and not owned by private people. This overstepping is nothing! "


    "Your Majesty is wise!" all officials said one after another.


    Li Shimin looked solemn and slowly got up and said: "It''s difficult to paddle by one person, and people can start a big boat only when they paddle. I often say that people can carry a boat or capsize a boat. Whether our Datang ship can go further requires everyone to paddle together. I hope you can work together on this Weishui bridge. Once Datang bridges are everywhere and cars and horses pass through the world without obstruction, our Datang ship can cross the ocean."


    "We will obey the holy order!" all the officials bowed down. Some officials wanted to make some small moves, but now they gave up the idea. This is a super meritorious hero. Everyone''s eyes are staring. Anyone who takes the lead will die without a place to bury.


    "Li Yun, I will deliver the Weishui bridge to you. I hope you won''t let me down." Li Shimin said seriously.


    Li Yun was overjoyed and immediately bowed down and said, "the grass people will certainly live up to your Majesty''s trust."


    Tian Mou on one side suddenly showed a happy smile. He finally reached the moment of elation.

 Chapter 900

    "They won''t thank you!"


    Looking at Tian Mou and Li Yun leaving with a happy face, Kong Yingda, who has been silent in the hall, said faintly.


    Merton smiled and said, "Mojia village doesn''t need their gratitude. Mo has no selfish intention to promote the establishment of Weishui bridge, but is dedicated to the world. It happens that only Xiangfu''s vein can build this bridge."


    Kong Yingda nodded. The construction cost of this bridge is amazing, but the benefits are also exciting. What''s more, this bridge will rewrite the history of bridge construction. Once this bridge is completed, there will be no natural hazards in the world except the Yangtze River, which is obvious and easy to see.


    Of course, the structure of the bridge is complex, and there are countless technologies to build the bridge. I''m afraid only the Xiangfu family, which has been inherited for thousands of years, can be built. That''s why Kong Yingda didn''t oppose it in the court hall.


    "I''m afraid that''s not the case. I''m afraid at least 50000 of 200000 Guan need to buy the steel, cement and machinery of Mojia village. After the bridge is built, the world will be connected, and the goods of Mojia village will go all the way to the world. I''m afraid there are countless benefits." Kong Yingda snorted coldly.


    Merton nodded without shame: "Only Mojia village owns the raw materials that can support the bridge. This is what Mojia village deserves. There can be more steel in the world than Mojia village. It is no different which Mojia is used by Xiangfu. Not to mention that the steel of this bridge is sold at a fair price. After all, the benefits of building a bridge are thousands of times stronger than those of Mojia village.


    "There is not much profit in the construction of this bridge in Mojia village. The Xiangfu family has gained a false reputation, and the ultimate beneficiaries are the people all over the world. Momou doesn''t want to encounter some undue twists and turns when building this bridge."


    Kong Yingda waved his long sleeve and proudly said, "if Confucianism doesn''t even have this capacity, how can it become the first of a hundred schools."


    Once the rivers in the world are unobstructed, such benefits are also what Confucianism is willing to see. Confucianism will not create complications.


    "Thank you!" Morton said solemnly.


    Kong Yingda waved his sleeves and turned to leave. However, his eyebrows could not melt away his sorrow. Now the Mohist village has quietly grown, and another vein of Mohism is showing its edge. In addition, other 100 schools are booming, but Confucianism is standing still.


    It should be noted that the struggle among hundreds of schools is like sailing against the current. If you don''t advance, you will fall back. Kong Yingda is extremely worried about the plight of Confucianism.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the inn, Tian Mou and Li Yun returned to the Inn and announced the appointment of the imperial court to the Xiangfu family. Suddenly, the whole Xiangfu family became boiling.


    In those years, the mojiazi brought the secret skills of live fish into Chang''an City, which made Chang''an city a sensation. Today, they just entered Chang''an city with their husband''s pulse, and they took over Super projects such as Weishui bridge, starting from a higher starting point than Mojia village.


    "This time, our Xiangfu family will certainly surpass the Mojia village family." a group of Xiangfu family children celebrated one after another.


    Li Yun and Tian Mou couldn''t help looking at each other. These children just cheered, but they didn''t know they were in the court hall, but they got Merton''s help, which gave them the opportunity to build the Weishui bridge. However, when they saw these excited Xiangfu''s children, they still swallowed their words. Maybe it was this drive to prove themselves that could complete the construction of the Weishui bridge.


    "Well, now the Weishui bridge is just drawings and models. There are still countless difficulties waiting for us to build the bridge. When you don''t celebrate, if you want to surpass Mojia village, you should take up 12 points and devote yourself to building the bridge." Tian Mou scolded.


    "Yes!" the sons of the prime minister''s family were like beating chicken blood. One by one, they immediately threw themselves into the drawings and models of the Weishui bridge.


    Seeing this, Li Yun nodded with satisfaction. Xiangfu''s children had such momentum, which made him full of confidence in the construction of Weishui bridge at that time.


    "Dare you ask craftsman Li to do this?" suddenly a flattering voice came from outside the other courtyard.


    Li Yun frowned. He didn''t expect that he had just arrived in Chang''an City and was found by people one after another. Li Yun moved and opened the door of the other hospital. He was surprised to see a man dressed as a shopkeeper standing outside the door.


    "I beg your pardon, Li Yun," Li Yun frowned.


    "I''m the shopkeeper of changsun tiexing. I used to have an old relationship with master Tian Mou. Today I''m here to visit. Please forgive me." shopkeeper changsun bowed.


    "Uncle Hotan is old!" Li Yun moved in his heart and asked him to enter another hospital.


    "Master Tian, I''m polite in the next compartment." shopkeeper Chang Sun said enthusiastically when he saw Tian Mou.


    When Tian Mou saw shopkeeper Chang sun, he couldn''t help showing a knowing smile and said, "it''s shopkeeper Chang sun. I don''t know what happened today?"


    Changsun shopkeeper Lang said: "at the beginning, master Tian left without saying goodbye, which made me regret, but I didn''t expect that master Tian brought the masters of Mohism to Beijing, which won the trust of his majesty and presided over the project of Weishui bridge. It''s really gratifying."


    Tian Mou showed a trace of pride and said, "shopkeeper changsun is serious. It all depends on your Majesty''s trust. Only today can I have a relationship with husband."


    Shopkeeper Chang sun looked around for a week and said, "now the Xiangfu family is not what it used to be. How can you still live in such a shabby shop? Chang sun''s house happens to have a house in Chang''an City, which can let the Xiangfu family live."


    Li Yun listened more and more wrong. He frowned and said, "thank you for the kindness of shopkeeper Chang sun. Xiangfu has lived in the countryside for a long time. I''m afraid he can''t get used to the mansion of Chang sun''s house."


    Shopkeeper Chang Sun said with a smile: "craftsman Li is polite. My Chang sun mansion has a head and a face in Chang''an city. Master Tian is kind to Chang sun mansion. It''s nothing to mention a mere house. In the future, if you need anything, just say hello. There''s nothing I can''t do in Chang''an city."


    Li Yun shook his head firmly and said, "no merit, no reward. Xiangfu''s pulse. Thank you for the kindness of the changsun mansion. Shopkeeper changsun might as well say something."


    When the shopkeeper changsun saw Li Yun''s repeated rejection, he was embarrassed and said, "I heard that the Weishui bridge designed by the Xiangfu family is mostly made of steel, and the changsun family is in charge of the supply of 50% iron materials in Chang''an city. As long as the changsun family cooperates with the Xiangfu family, it can not only ensure the supply of the cast bridge, but also make the Xiangfu family have rich returns."


    "Rich returns!" Li Yun''s heart was infuriated by the naked hint of shopkeeper Chang sun. The Weishui bridge was the first battle of Xiangfu''s line, and it was absolutely not allowed to lose. They had just won the power of construction. These iron companies jumped up like jackals smelling blood.

 Chapter 901

    Tian Mou grabbed Li Yun, who was about to explode, shook his head slightly, motioned for Li Yun to calm down, turned his head and said to shopkeeper changsun: "The changsun mansion is willing to help the Xiangfu family. Tian is naturally very grateful, and the changsun shopkeeper also knows that there have always been differences between the two veins of the Mohist family. Between the Mohist village and the changsun mansion, the Xiangfu family naturally tends to the changsun mansion, but he doesn''t know that the changsun iron bank can have a steel suspension cable carrying millions of kilograms."


    Shopkeeper Chang sun suddenly showed an embarrassed look, shook his head and said, "this is the top secret craft of Mohism. Chang sun''s iron line can''t make it."


    The iron and steel suspension cable bearing a weight of one million kilograms is something that shopkeeper Chang sun dared not think of before. Naturally, it is impossible to make it.


    "Has there ever been a steel beam supporting the bridge spanning hundreds of steps?" Tian Mou asked again.


    Changsun shopkeeper wanted to answer casually. He suddenly thought of Tian Mou''s identity. Knowing that these could not be concealed from him, he had to shake his head reluctantly and said, "changsun tiexing can''t do it."


    Tian Mou sighed with regret and said sincerely on his face: "shopkeeper Chang sun, it''s not that we don''t want to cooperate with Chang sun''s house, but that the Weishui bridge was built by your majesty himself. It''s the best opportunity for Xiangfu''s pulse to surpass Mojia village. We don''t allow any mistakes. I hope Chang sun''s house can understand."


    Shopkeeper Chang sun''s face changed. Although what Tian Mou said is true, it is a super large project with a cost of 200000 yuan. Once the steel supply is won, how much benefit will it be? How can chang sun''s house be willing to give up.


    "Is Xiangfu''s pulse really so unfeeling that he won''t give changsun''s house some face," said the shopkeeper of changsun with a cold face.


    Tian Mou sneered: "Face, I taught you the most advanced steelmaking skill last year. How did you do it? The steel made by you can''t even beat the steel before Mojia village. You think I want to lick my face and beg Mojia son, but you think I don''t want face. However, even if I lose my face, your eldest sun''s house bribes me more money than Xiangfu''s The revival and reputation of the first line are important. "


    "These difficult hundred families?"


    Shopkeeper Chang sun was immediately embarrassed. Each of these hundred families had their own beliefs and ideals. If ordinary people faced the coercion and inducement of Chang sun''s house, I''m afraid they would have succumbed long ago.


    Moreover, he also knows that what Tian Mou said is true. Although changsun tiexing controls the steel-making technology, the steel produced is better, but it is only similar to the first generation of Mojia village, let alone the second generation of Mojia village.


    "It''s not that I didn''t give you a chance, but that you didn''t grasp it. If your changsun family wants to threaten us, we should also think that our Xiangfu family has passed on for thousands of years. We are not vegetarian." Tian Mou flatly refused.


    Shopkeeper Chang sun couldn''t help himself. Naturally, he didn''t want to be stiff. He thought, "even if the steel cable and steel beam can''t be built, can''t it be the steel on the bridge deck?"


    Tian Mou thought for a moment and said, "it''s not impossible. However, the court allocated 200000 yuan as a fund, which is not to let Xiangfu steal work and materials. The construction period of Weishui bridge is five years, and the bridge deck steel beam can be used after at least three years. At that time, if the steel of changsun family reaches the strength of the second generation steel of Mojia village, Xiangfu family will naturally tend to changsun iron line."


    Shopkeeper Chang sun''s face was uncertain. After a long time, he looked at Tian Mou and said, "it''s a deal. Master Tian knows what happens when he deceives Chang sun''s house."


    Tian Mou laughed and said: "between Mojia village and changsun tiehang, Xiangfu''s pulse naturally knows how to choose, and this bridge is just the first show of Xiangfu''s pulse. I believe there will be a second bridge and a third bridge in the future. It depends on whether changsun tiehang can grasp this opportunity."


    Shopkeeper Chang sun can''t help breathing. What Tian Mou said is good. As long as this bridge is completed, bridges in the world will flourish. With the establishment of one super bridge after another, countless steel will be needed at that time. That is a huge market. Maybe it''s time for Chang sun railway to invest a lot of energy in research and development of steel.


    "Excuse me, goodbye!" shopkeeper Chang Sun said with an arched hand.


    "I''m sorry to see you off soon!" Tian Mou was relieved when he saw shopkeeper Chang sun leave.


    "Why did Uncle Tian promise his eldest son tiexing?" Li Yun frowned


    Tian Mou sneered: "you think the second generation steel in Mojia village is easy to crack. At that time, the changsun family can''t make it by themselves, so you can''t blame anyone. I''ve just been to Chang''an city. If I rashly offend the changsun family, you think life will be very easy."


    "But if the steel produced by the changsun family is comparable to the second generation steel in Mojia village! Do you really use the changsun family''s?" Li Yun said with a frozen face.


    Tian Mou laughed and said: "If the changsun family can make good steel in three years, it will be much better. It is a means to check and balance the Mojia village. Why not? In the future, the construction of bridges in Xiangfu family requires the Mojia village? Moreover, even if the steel made by the changsun family is slightly inferior, it can also be used if a bridge smaller than the Weishui bridge is built in the future. Can''t we make good friends with the changsun family We do no harm "


    Li Yun was embarrassed and said, "Merton has made great contributions to the construction of the Weishui bridge this time. Even in the future, the construction of the bridge depends entirely on the steel and money of Mojia village. Why is uncle Tian still so disgusted with Merton and Mojia village, and even spared no effort to support changsun tiexing against Mojia village?"


    There is a deep contradiction between Mojia village and Xiangfu''s vein, but after all, it has been a long time, but the two veins are still incompatible.


    Tian Mou looked at Li Yun meaningfully and said, "the relationship between Xiangfu family and Mojia village must be opposite. In this way, Mojia village will understand that Mojia village is the best result. Of course, the relationship between Xiangfu family and Mojia village is close, which does not affect the general trend."


    Li Yun immediately thought.


    Tian Mou got up proudly and said, "changsun iron shop is only the first, and there will be a second and third shop later to deliver information to the iron and steel shop in Chang''an city. If anyone can reach the quality of the second generation iron and steel in Mojia village, Xiangfu will use whose iron and steel, otherwise there is no need to go to the door?"


    Li Yun nodded in deep thought. In this way, Xiangfu''s pulse will no longer be disturbed, and they can concentrate on the study of Weishui bridge.


    With the news of the construction of the Weishui bridge and the spread of the conditions of the Xiangfu family, it is like investing a huge stone in the calm Chang''an city iron and steel bank. Which of the 200000 big businesses doesn''t want to participate, and even if the Weishui bridge can''t participate, how many bridges the whole Datang needs to build in the future will be a broad market.


    In an instant, all the iron companies began to take action. At the beginning, the MOH family intended to indulge, but no one studied the steel secret skills deliberately spread by Tian Mou. Now it is hot because of a Weishui bridge.

 Chapter 902

    Night!


    Kong Yingda dragged her tired body back to the Confucius Mansion and sat in the hall with a sad face.


    "Why? There''s bad news again!" Kong Desheng''s old voice suddenly sounded.


    Seeing Kong Desheng walking slowly, Kong Yingda smiled bitterly and said, "why do you ask me clearly? You haven''t heard of such a big thing as the Mojia Xiangfu''s coming to Beijing!"


    "Are you worried about this?" Kong Desheng could not deny it. He took no time to pick up his tea cup and have a drink.


    Kong Yingda sighed deeply, his face coagulated and said: "this time, Xiangfu''s one pulse went to Beijing, and one shot was the Weishui bridge. The two veins of Mohism shine together and echo each other, and the fame of Mohism will rise again."


    It''s just that a Mohist village is at the height of the sun. Just after the Mohist Xiangfu family came out of the mountain, it brought such a stunning masterpiece. Isn''t it true that the Raptor can''t stand the river!


    Kong Desheng snorted coldly: "What''s the matter? For three thousand years, unless Mozi is reborn, the three veins can never merge. Just like our Confucianism, how can we control the whole Confucianism even after we become Confucius? Not to mention that Mozi is only weak in age. It''s hard to kill them if we let the old die hards of Xiangfu''s family fall under the door of Mozi."


    Kong Yingda nodded. Compared with Mohism, Confucianism is more fragmented. Let''s not mention the 72 disciples of Confucius. In addition, Mencius, Xunzi and the branches of Confucianism since the Han Dynasty, all kinds of ideas emerge in endlessly, and even criticize each other. It''s impossible to integrate them into one.


    "That said, the Mohist school is unstoppable, the medical school is booming, the military school is reforming, the legalist school is dormant, the Taoist school is also making progress step by step, and even the Buddhist school is beginning to revive, but the Confucianism is standing still..." Kong Yingda said in a low voice.


    "Sailing against the current, if you don''t advance, you will retreat. This is the dilemma of Confucianism!" Kong Desheng hit the nail on the head.


    Kong Yingda nodded deeply. He naturally knew this truth. However, Confucianism has reached its peak after thousands of years of prosperity. How difficult it is to make further progress.


    If only one of the hundred schools is revived, Confucianism may not hesitate to destroy the flowers and nip it in the bud. However, today''s situation is that hundreds of schools go hand in hand. If Confucianism moves one, it will not only bring out the unknown, but also attract the dissatisfaction of the imperial court. I''m afraid it will immediately attract the counterattack of other hundred schools.


    "Mohism, Mohism!" Kong Yingda said with gnashing teeth. All these situations are the chain reaction brought by the revival of Mohism. At the beginning, Mohism village led by Mohism village entered Chang''an city with gongs and drums. After hearing this, Kong Yingda just smiled and regarded it as a jumping beam clown.


    Later, the Mohist family entered the Imperial College, and two and a half poems amazed the Imperial College, while Kong Yingda only regarded it as a talented person who is proud of things. However, who could have thought that an Mohist family could set off such a storm and change the pattern of hundreds of schools for hundreds of years.


    "In the pre Qin period, a hundred schools of thought contended, and Confucianism was just one of the hundred schools of thought. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed a hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone. Unfortunately, the secret of the dominance of Confucianism has been revealed by Mohist Zi, which is the support of the emperor. Mohist Zi did not hesitate to violate Mohist tradition and took the initiative to make Mohist ink technology public in order to obtain the support of the emperor. Obviously, Mohist Zi succeeded, so his His hundreds of schools have followed suit and sold their studies to the emperor''s house. However, only one person has benefited in the end, that is, his majesty today. "


    Kong Desheng stayed in Chang''an City for a long time. He was studying the situation of 100 families. He found that all the things of 100 families seemed to be the little catfish of the Mexican family stirring up the wind and rain. However, there was always Li Shimin behind, which worried him. He didn''t know whether Li Shimin was dissatisfied with the dominance of the Confucian family or the counterattack of the verbal and written criticism of Li Shimin when he rebelled This is the reason why Confucianism dare not act rashly.


    "All schools of thought, in the eyes of the emperor, we are just a chess piece!" Kong Yingda said reluctantly. Originally, Confucianism also had the means to check and balance the emperor. However, under the disturbance of the Mohists, all these means disappeared.


    "A hundred schools of thought or chess pieces! This is the mission of our hundred schools of thought. Now that a hundred schools of thought are contending again, obviously with the support of your majesty, it is time for Confucianism to maintain its supremacy." Kong De Shenglang said.


    "How difficult is it?" Kong Yingda said reluctantly. The development of Confucianism is the most special. The theory of Confucius and Mencius has directly reached the peak, and their classics can''t be surpassed by future generations. This is also the reason why Confucianism can be respected alone. It''s even more difficult to achieve a hundred goals.


    This is similar to Confucianism and Taoism. Confucius, Mencius and Lao Zhuang''s theory is unmatched by later generations. However, Mohism and other hundred schools are just the opposite. The knowledge of the pre-Qin scholars is just a bud. After thousands of years of accumulation, they finally accumulate and develop. Once they come out of the mountain, they will be the dazzling Tang Dynasty.


    "Although it''s difficult, it''s not without a chance?" Kong Desheng said confidently.


    Kong Yingda''s eyes brightened and said, "please speak clearly!"


    "Li duo''s master''s college and compulsory education!" Kong Desheng said solemnly.


    "But Li duo refused his second uncle in public..." Kong Yingda frowned. He naturally knew the importance of the master''s college. After Kong Desheng entered Beijing, he wanted to incorporate Li duo at the first time. Unfortunately, Li duo directly refused to attribute the master''s college to the Confucian family.


    "Then I''ll come to the door again. For the future of Confucianism, I don''t care if I lose my face." Kong Desheng waved his big hand and was as single as Tian Mou.


    "Second uncle''s heart is Confucian, and we admire him." Kong Yingda complimented.


    "Confucius Institute and compulsory education must be dominated by Confucianism, with all the people in the world, scholars, peasants, businessmen and scholars as the leader. The great prosperity of Mohism is just a mere control of the craftsmanship industry. As long as Confucianism firmly controls the way of being an official, it will be as stable as Mount Tai, and even let Mohism be used by Confucianism," Kong Desheng said firmly.


    "But Li duo, a strange Confucian, has a strange temper. Confucius College is his lifelong effort. I''m afraid it''s hard to convince him!" Kong Yingda worried.


    "As long as Li duo agrees to be dominated by Confucianism, Confucianism will not interfere in the affairs of the master''s college, and even vigorously support compulsory education. In the final analysis, he is still a Confucian, and I believe Li duo will not refuse this time." Kong Desheng finally put down his arrogant attitude for Confucianism.


    "And this time, I came prepared and brought a gift that they couldn''t refuse to Confucius College." Kong Desheng stretched out his hand and Kong huisuo, who was standing by, quickly handed over a palm sized, four finger thick book in front of Kong Yingda.


    "Dictionary!" Kong Yingda looked at the top two big characters and said solemnly.

 Chapter 903

    "What book is this?"


    Kong Yingda looked at them puzzled and said with a puzzled face.


    "What kind of book is this? You can see it at a glance!" Kong Desheng said, selling Guan Zi.


    Kong Yingda opened the dictionary in doubt. First of all, he couldn''t help frowning. The books he usually reads are classics, but this book is as plain as boiled water.


    "This is the book that contains all the characters in the world!" Kong Yingda frowned.


    Kong Desheng nodded and said, "yes, you can find some ''Kong'' words and try them."


    "Kong, the radical, has four strokes." Kong Yingda is most proud that as Confucius, he has long been familiar with the word Kong. He recited it silently and quickly looked it up in the dictionary. He soon found the word Kong next to the word "Zi" in a very short time.


    "Two hundred and sixty-four pages!" Kong Yingda flipped through the paper and soon found page 264. At a glance, she found the word Kong among the fonts.


    "Interpretation 1, small hole, hole: nostril, pinhole. Interpretation 2, surname, Kong: Confucius..." Kong Yingda looked at the words and interpretation of the dictionary and frowned. It''s too simple! There is no literary talent at all. It is just like learning words by elementary school children.


    "Young children learn words!" Kong Yingda thought for a long time, but he missed the light.


    When Kong Desheng saw Kong Yingda''s expression, he naturally knew what he thought. At present, he laughed and said, "this book is really no literary talent, and it is very simple. Even a child can easily find words he doesn''t understand."


    Kong Ying Darden''s eyes lit up when she stared at the dictionary in her hand. Yes, this book has no literary talent and no wise opinions. It directly contains the world''s words, but it has a unique style. She can quickly find the words by using the side edges, strokes and rhymes.


    "This is not a book for adults, but a book for elementary school children." Kong Yingda stood up excitedly and paced back and forth.


    For a long time, children all over the world have adopted four books and five classics, but Kong Shengzhi''s learning is still difficult for adults, and it is even more obscure for children.


    Therefore, the Three Character Classic spread by Wu Meiniang, a disciple of the Mohist school, spread all over the country overnight and became the best reading for children in the world. Now Confucianism finally has an enlightenment that can compete with the Three Character Classic.


    "Who wrote this book?" Kong Yingda said impatiently.


    Kong Desheng raised his chin and said, "it''s far away and near."


    "Huisuo, it''s you?" Kong Yingda couldn''t help but grow up and looked at Kong huisuo. Kong huisuo has been studying under his eyelids and is the next generation of Confucianism. Kong Yingda never thought that he had made such a wonderful book without saying a word.


    Kong huisuo nodded helplessly. He thought he had finished the dictionary secretly, but he didn''t know that Jiang was still old and spicy. His every move was under Kong Desheng''s gaze. At the moment when the dictionary was finished printing, Kong Desheng quietly appeared in front of him.


    "Uncle Wei ignored you and didn''t expect you to finish such a great work. Why don''t you talk about it with me?" Kong Yingda said softly, looking at Kong huisuo.


    "He? Do you think his elm head can think of this method!" Kong Desheng snorted coldly.


    "Hmm?" Kong Yingda was stunned and repressed her anger. "Could it be that this dictionary stole other people''s attention."


    Kong huisuo couldn''t bear to see Kong Yingda''s expression, so he had to say in good faith, "no, this is what my nephew got from Qin Huaiyu."


    "Oh!"


    Kong Yingda was relieved that the reputation of the Kong family for many years could not be such a scandal.


    Then he suddenly turned his head and said angrily, "no one in Chang''an knows Qin Huaiyu''s three mallets. It''s not surprising that if they can come up with such clever tricks as dictionary, they can also be admitted to the first place."


    "The second uncle didn''t know that this was one of the three plans to pass on the history of history. The original engraving printing and hot-air balloon were one of them. However, they were frustrated repeatedly. The three people gave up. I couldn''t bear to give up such a thing that benefits the country and the people. Then I decided to devote myself to compiling a dictionary."


    "It''s still one of such amazing strategies!" Kong Yingda said in shock.


    Kong Desheng said with a wry smile, "compared with block printing and hot-air balloons, this dictionary is really a little ordinary."


    Who would have thought that the dictionary, which seemed like a treasure to Confucianism, was just an insignificant plan of others.


    "Then what other plans do they have for famous biography?" Kong Yingda asked curiously. It seems that these three bastards have made a lot of good things for famous biography. "


    "Collect herbs and prescriptions from all over the world and sort them into a volume. Doctors are already doing this. It is said that his Highness the king of Wei is very interested in mapping the geographical patterns of the world." Kong huisuo thought.


    "If this matter is successful, there is a chance for it to be famous in history." Kong Yingda regretted that it had been preempted.


    "What else?" Kong Yingda asked.


    "In addition, there are animals and plants classified and collected for the world to explore the end of the extreme north, the source of the extreme south, and the other end of the extreme East Ocean............................." Kong huisuo said a lot.


    "Are you sure this is Qin Huaiyu''s crazy plan, not Mohist''s whimsical." Kong Yingda is like listening to the book of heaven, but he knows how Qin Huaiyu can''t think of it alone. Only one may be from Mohist''s hand.


    Kong Desheng shook his head and said, "it doesn''t matter who did it. It''s who can do it alone. Now huisuo has made a dictionary and learned from Qin Huaiyu. That''s enough."


    Kong Yingda can''t help being silent. He naturally knows what Kong Desheng means. Now Confucianism urgently needs this dictionary to cover up the shame of Confucianism, but is unwilling to be involved with Mohism. Qin Huaiyu is enough.


    "But......" Kong huisuo said anxiously. Although Qin Huaiyu gave him the dictionary, it was also the credit of Merton. Kong Yingda directly eliminated the Mohists in order to avoid suspicion, which was unfair.


    Kong Desheng waved his big hand and said, "no, but it''s settled. A mere dictionary is of no benefit to the Mohist school, but for my Confucianism, it''s a stepping stone to pry open the door of the strange Confucian Li duo. It can''t be lost."


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help sighing. He didn''t expect that Kong Desheng would not hesitate to make such an act against his heart for the sake of Confucianism. What a difficult decision for Kong Desheng, who has always been following the example of Kong Sheng''s ancestors.


    On the same day, Kong Desheng, holding the dictionary, went to the master''s college again and had a secret talk with the strange Confucian Li Duo for an hour. Only then did he step on the door with satisfaction.

 Chapter 904

    "It''s just a dictionary. The master handed over the master''s college to Confucianism." after Kong Desheng left, Zu Mingjun quietly stood behind Master Li and frowned.


    Master Li shook his head and said, "no, although the dictionary is a great thing for children''s enlightenment, it is extremely important for primary schools, but it is not enough to make me give in like this?"


    "Why is that?" Zu Mingjun didn''t understand.


    Master Li asked, "let me ask you, do you think the primary school we founded is only set up in a corner of Luoyang, Chang''an City, or should it be popularized all over the world?"


    "Nature is the whole world!" Zu Mingjun said without hesitation. It was for this ideal that he refused the official position of the imperial court and stayed in the master''s college.


    Master Li nodded with satisfaction and said, "you know, although the momentum of a hundred schools of thought is beginning to show, the world still respects Confucianism alone. This time, the Confucius family''s requirement is only that primary education must be dominated by Confucianism, which does not prohibit other hundred schools of thought. I don''t think it''s too much."


    Zu Mingjun couldn''t help but look at Master Li in amazement.


    "If Confucianists obstruct it, Confucius colleges and primary schools will have difficulties. With the help of Confucianists, countless primary schools will be set up all over the world, benefiting countless children all over the world. In addition to learning Chinese, these primary schools should also be required to learn mathematics. This has no impact on the whole process of mathematics, but is an opportunity for the great prosperity of mathematics," said Li.


    Zu Mingjun naturally knew that what Master Li said was true. With the help of Confucianism, primary schools must be able to open Datang everywhere. At that time, the whole country will learn arithmetic. Seeing that the opportunity for the prosperity of arithmetic has come, Zu Mingjun was not happy at all.


    "What about the Mohist school? We can only maintain today''s situation by relying on the Mohist School''s funds. Even if the Mohist school didn''t abandon the master''s College in the last capital crisis, we turned around and abandoned the Mohist school." Zu Mingjun felt guilty and ashamed to face Merton.


    Master Li said calmly: "Although we all rely on the help of the Mohists, except for the Mohist village, the Mohists never put the master''s college and primary school under the Mohist family, but let us develop independently. Since we and the Mohists are not divided in primary and secondary, our move is not a betrayal of the Mohists, and I think this is also the outcome that the Mohists are happy to see. Once the primary school is booming, the more talents in the world, the more favorable it is for the Mohists, There are a few more people in the world who can become scholars. So many scholars in primary schools all over the world will naturally divert to other 100 schools, and the Mohist school will naturally benefit a lot. "


    "But!" Zu Mingjun naturally knew this truth, but he still couldn''t pass it psychologically.


    Master Li said flatly, "no, but Confucianism is the first of 100 schools, and it is natural for Confucianism to dominate primary education. Moreover, without the support of Confucianism, we have many difficulties in promoting primary education. Our purpose is to make children all over the world accept enlightenment, and when a hundred schools of thought contend, it depends on their abilities."


    Zu Mingjun sighed helplessly. He naturally knew that primary schools could not cross the Confucian level anyway. But once Confucianism dominated primary schools, would there be a place for other hundred schools of thought in the future? "


    "Brother Zu, worry too much! The Mohist school has never thought of competing with Confucianism for primary school." in the Mohist house, Merton said in a loud voice to the apologetic zumingjun.


    "But brother Mo has strongly supported the master''s college and donated so many primary schools for many years, but now he has been usurped by Confucianism. My little brother is really sorry." Zu Mingjun apologized. Merton helped a lot in mathematics, but he failed to keep the master''s college and primary school for the Mohist school, and he was unable to face Merton in his heart.


    When Merton saw this, he turned his mind and said meaningfully, "great fallacy, elder brother, you and I are all from a hundred schools. Some words can be said that the world thinks that the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism is the same. However, he doesn''t know that it is not Mohism that will compete with Confucianism in the future, but the same vein of arithmetic. As long as there is arithmetic in primary school, Confucianism will never dominate."


    Zu Mingjun suddenly looked up and said, "let''s have a pulse of arithmetic?"


    Merton nodded solemnly.


    "Brother Mo is too proud of the one line of arithmetic. It''s just a hundred later schools. It doesn''t have a good reputation, let alone classical theories. Even the ancestors'' reputation is far from that of the hundreds of schools. How can they compete with Confucianism?" Zu Mingjun said with a bitter smile.


    Merton shook his head and said, "brother Zu is too self deprecating. Although the reputation of arithmetic is not obvious, it contains the supreme truth in the world. One is one and two is two. The numbers are the most real and will never change. Moreover, people all over the world may not need Mohism, but they must be able to learn arithmetic. Even Mohist ink technology is based on arithmetic."


    Zu Mingjun nodded proudly. He was naturally proud of the pulse of arithmetic.


    "Even in Mo''s opinion, the future hundred schools will eventually be divided into two schools. One is called ''literature'' with Confucianism as the leader and articles as the companion. The other school is based on the one vein of mathematics and numbers as the principle to explore the eternal truth contained in heaven and earth. Mo calls it ''reason''. The dispute among the future hundred schools must be a dispute between literature and theory.


    "The dispute between art and science?"


    Zu Mingjun couldn''t help feeling excited. He never thought that there would be such a brilliant future in the history of mathematics, which he didn''t dare to think of.


    "Confucianists, Legalists, historians, and even Confucius institutes can be called the literary school, while mathematics, Mohist ink technology, Taoist waidan school, and doctors can all be called the rational school. Now Mohism is in the limelight and attracts the attention of the world and hundreds of schools. At this time, it is the time for the development of mathematics." Merton sincerely looks at the ancestral gentleman aside.


    "Build the plank road openly and get through the old warehouse secretly." zumingjun moved in his heart.


    Today, the Mohist school takes the initiative in the Ming Dynasty, but let the pulse of mathematics in the dark. It can be said that it has made a lot of sacrifices. While the ancestor Mingjun is moved, he also feels that he has a heavy responsibility. At the same time, he can''t help feeling a kind of glory, the glory of being proud of his own theory.


    "But can you compete in the same vein?" Zu Mingjun said with some self-confidence. After all, the starting point of the same vein is too low.


    Merton firmly said, "if you can win, how many occupations the world needs to write articles and how many occupations need to learn to calculate. In the future, it must be the rational school that has the upper hand. How can you govern the world by relying on colorful articles alone? Naturally, countless precise calculation scheduling can make the world peaceful. From then on, it is not surprising that people of the rational school will become officials in the DPRK."


    "Becoming an official in Korea?" Zu Mingjun was immediately excited. He never thought that the whole process of mathematics would be as brilliant as Confucianism. However, under Merton''s analysis, he found that it was not impossible to popularize mathematics in the Tang Dynasty with the help of master''s college and compulsory education.


    "Thank you, brother Mo!" Zu Mingjun was convinced. He was full of guilt today, but he didn''t expect to get a brilliant future of mathematics, an unlimited brilliant future.


    "Mohism and mathematics are in the same vein, in the same boat, in the same boat!" Merton solemnly said.


    "Good! Help each other in the same boat! Jointly carry forward the Neo Confucianism." Zu Mingjun suddenly got up and said proudly.


    At this moment, a school of love hate dilemma that gives countless students a headache was officially established.

 Chapter 905

    The monthly general meeting is a very grand event in the Tai Chi hall. All officials above the fifth grade in Chang''an city will be present. Every major decision of the court will be announced on the day of the monthly general meeting.


    "Li duo of the master''s college is going to promote primary schools, popularize compulsory education, and let all people in the world learn the theory of saints," said an official of the Central Library province holding a memorial.


    All officials couldn''t help laughing. This is not the first time Li duo wrote a book. It''s nothing every time. It must be the same this time.


    "Primary school?" Li Shimin frowned. Naturally, he attached great importance to primary school and compulsory education. However, in this era, Datang adopted elite education, and most educational talents and resources were concentrated in the hands of the aristocratic family. If he rashly implemented primary school, it would certainly frighten the aristocratic family. This is the reason why Li duo wrote many times and Li Shimin did not agree.


    "Let''s all discuss it!" Li Shimin waved his big hand and threw the problem to all officials.


    "To promote primary schools, I think I can''t steal." Du Chuke hurriedly got up and said that he was a member of an aristocratic family. Naturally, he didn''t want to let the educational advantages of the aristocratic family be lost. He was the most active person who took the lead in opposing the promotion of primary schools.


    "As far as I know, Master Li''s primary school students are both good and bad. Even the children of peddlers and pawns can enter school as long as they can afford to pay shuxiu. The teachers used are children who can''t even pass the examination of scholars, students with poor qualifications and masters who fall behind in the sun. How can they teach the pillars of going abroad? Weichen thinks that primary school is just a waste of human and financial resources."


    What Du Chuke said is the embarrassment of primary schools. In addition to the compulsory enrollment of all children in Mojia village, most of the children of wealthy families in Chang''an and Luoyang choose private schools, hoping to be nominated in the golden list in the future.


    In order to promote primary school. It can be said that everything is extremely important. There are not enough students, no qualifications, and not enough teachers, let alone children. As long as they have been in a private school for a few years, it is enough to teach six-year-old children. In this way, they can attract many poor children, which makes the primary school develop.


    The letter made Ma Zhou stand out in high spirits and retorted: "No, Confucius said: if you teach without distinction, as long as you are dedicated to scholars, the master will teach wholeheartedly. On the history books, those who are gifted and stupid will not count. Zhuan sun, one of the 72 disciples of Kong Sheng, is extreme. He was dull, stupid and rude. Yan Huijing is often poor and has nothing. In the end, he will become a generation of sages. My minister believes that Master Li''s primary school is Kong Sheng''s idea A practitioner of. "


    In his opinion, Master Li''s primary school is the gospel of poor children. Children from ordinary families can afford private schools, while the primary school allows the originally high shuxiu to be spread to many students, which directly reduces shuxiu. Even ordinary people can bear it, which is rare for poor children opportunity.


    Du Chuke retorted, "it''s a pity that Li duo''s primary school doesn''t take Kong Sheng''s four books and five classics as books, but compiles the so-called" Sinology "and" Mathematics "in order to make money, and even divides them into six years at once. How can he be called a practitioner of Kong Sheng''s concept after such a bad behavior."


    Li Shimin''s face sank. He had seen it in the textbook of Sinology. Although it contains many four books and five classics, it also contains other theories and common sense of life. More importantly, it can be said that it is not a bad act to publicize the thought of loyalty to the king and patriotism.


    Ma Zhou countered: "Kong Sheng''s knowledge is broad and profound, but how can elementary school children understand it? Master Li did so in order to step by step. Moreover, primary school students not only know literature and words, but also have common sense of politeness, health and safety. These are exactly what elementary school children need. Take this winter, several private school children have been playing on the ice, causing the ice to break and drown, while little children The students are familiar with safety knowledge, and none of them is in danger. I think this is what elementary school children are required to do. As for the sage''s theory, it''s not too late to learn it when they are older. "


    Many officials nodded one after another that children are ignorant. These common sense of life is very necessary and can not be learned from the theory of saints. This is a major disadvantage of private schools.


    Li Shimin''s face sank and said, "send orders to all private schools across the country. Be sure to admonish students not to take risks on the ice in winter, so as to prevent tragedy."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Ma Zhou solemnly said. Although Li Shimin''s move is for the students all over the world, it also indirectly helped him and affirmed the role of primary school in imparting safety knowledge.


    Du Chuke explained: "Most of the ice breaks occur in early winter and early spring. It''s just that the family doesn''t take good care of them. The real pillars of the country are gifted children who recite ancient poetry at the age of three, know a thousand words at the age of five, and are familiar with the four books and five classics at the age of seven. The primary school seems to have a great momentum, but a teacher has taught 50 or 60 young children, and how many children can get the teacher''s instruction I''m afraid it''s a waste of water in the end! "


    Other officials nodded one after another. One of the biggest defects of primary education is to recruit too many students. In this way, it is impossible for teachers to focus on one student. In this way, the teaching effect is far inferior to the elite education in private schools.


    "I tell you that you have a play, which may make the primary school have the best of both worlds." suddenly Kong Yingda stepped out. Immediately let the whole court be quiet.


    All the officials'' eyes focused on Kong Yingda. Although Kong Yingda''s official position is not high, his status can not be ignored. After all, the Confucius family is the facade of Confucianism.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "Kong Aiqing, please speak!"


    "I tell your majesty that today''s children all over the world must be confused when they start school. However, in private schools, how can the teacher go hand in hand to solve their doubts at any time? Today, I''d like to present a book to your majesty. With this book, children all over the world can be accompanied like a good teacher, solve their doubts and get twice the result with half the effort." Kong Yingda proudly said that Confucianism, who owns the dictionary, is naturally unwilling to be lonely, Kong Yingda specially chose the Grand Court meeting with hundreds of officials to report good news to Li Shimin and determined to revitalize the Ming of Confucianism.


    Li Shimin was surprised and said, "Oh! There are still such wonderful books in the world. I want to see them."


    Other officials also whispered and couldn''t believe looking at Kong Yingda. However, due to Kong Yingda''s identity, they didn''t show it.


    "Your Majesty, please look!"


    Kong Yingda bowed down and presented the dictionary. The pride on his face was revealed, which made all officials a little more curious.


    "Dictionary!" Li Shimin looked at the book gently and read it out involuntarily.


    Kong Yingda nodded and said, "yes, this book contains all the words in the world, interpretation and word creation. If children don''t know the words or don''t understand their meaning, they can quickly find them in the dictionary to solve their doubts. It can be said that it is like a good teacher."


    "It''s so convenient?" Li Shimin was surprised. He began to look it up. As expected, he quickly found the words he thought in his heart. Although the interpretation is simple, it is enough for elementary school children.


    Kong Yingda also distributed many dictionaries to the officials. The officials looked them up according to the method Kong Yingda said, and they were really effective. Everyone was surprised.


    "This book is really like a good teacher. There are several people in the families of children all over the world who can afford private school teachers. Most of them are taught by one teacher. With this book, it is like a good teacher, which is of great benefit to their studies." a civil official praised it.


    Other officials nodded one after another. On the one hand, it was Kong Yingda''s identity. On the other hand, the dictionary was indeed very practical and very useful for enlightening young children.

 Chapter 906

    "This book is easy to find. Even children can easily use it. In this way, it is a perfect match with primary schools with few teachers and many students. Even stupid students can be diligent and able to make up for their weaknesses as long as they work hard." Kong Yingda solemnly said.


    "Oh!"


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and looked at Kong Yingda inconceivably. Li Shimin secretly supported the promotion of primary schools, but he didn''t expect Kong Yingda after Kong Sheng to publicly support primary schools, which surprised Li Shimin.


    Other officials also pondered it one after another and suddenly stared at Kong Yingda. If the Kong Family publicly supported the primary school and abandoned the private school, I''m afraid the situation in the hall will change.


    Ma Zhou couldn''t believe looking at Kong Yingda. No one thought that Kong Yingda''s family publicly supported the primary school and even published a dictionary, which was very consistent with the primary school, which was no less than giving charcoal in the snow for her fighting alone.


    "A good book is indeed a good book! In this way, teachers can save their worry and students can solve their doubts. Even a teacher can''t bring several times more students." Li Shimin said with praise.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. As a result, there are more students, more teachers, and more people willing to teach. It is a great blessing for the world that such bad habits lead to more and more people reading the books of sages." Fang Xuanling arched his hand.


    "However, nowadays, printing is popular, books are cheap, pencils and pens save pen, ink and paper, and the burden of students entering school is greatly reduced. Over time, the study of saints must be popular in the countryside." Wei Zheng nodded one after another. In the past, going to school was not an easy thing. It took a lot of repair to invite teachers to private schools. Not to mention, even pen, ink, paper and inkstone consumed quickly, and the poor could hardly afford to go to school. This was also the previous education, which was elite education. It was difficult for children from poor families to go to school.


    This is why the right to education is in the hands of aristocratic families.


    Many long-term officials have keenly found that with the continuous reduction of education costs, the development momentum of primary schools is unstoppable, which will have a significant impact on the private school system. I''m afraid this is also the reason why the Confucius family is determined to win the master''s college and primary school education.


    "I don''t know who wrote this book. I''m sure I won''t hesitate to commend it." Li Shimin said with great joy.


    Kong Yingda said proudly, "this is written by Kong huisuo, the nephew of Weichen. Now he is waiting outside the palace."


    The reason why Kong Yingda presented the dictionary today is to hold his nephew for fun and be well prepared.


    "It''s after Confucius. No wonder you have such wisdom. Come and proclaim Confucius to the temple." Li Shimin nodded and praised.


    Other officials were also surprised. They thought Kong Yingda had made such a good work silently, but they didn''t expect it to be written by younger descendants of the Kong family.


    "Go up to the temple after Xuankong saint!" with a loud voice, it soon spread to the outside of the imperial palace.


    After a while, a dignified young man came to the Tai Chi hall. This man was Kong huisuo.


    Outside the Tai Chi hall, Kong huisuo took a deep breath and proudly prepared to step into the hall, but suddenly there was a flash of light. He saw a smiling face in the last row of the generals greeting him. Who is this person, not Merton?


    The monthly general meeting was Merton''s only time when he had to go to court. At other times, he was relaxed and just had to keep an eye on the firearm prison.


    Kong huisuo almost didn''t stumble. Fortunately, he had deep self-restraint. Ignoring Merton''s funny, he proudly stepped into the Tai Chi hall.


    "Kong huisuo, the 32nd generation of the Kong family, see your majesty!" Kong huisuo said proudly.


    "It''s really a talent! There are successors in the Kong family!" Li Shimin praised Kong huisuo when he looked at the Yushu Linfeng.


    Other officials nodded one after another. If the dictionary was written by Kong Yingda, people might disagree, but it was written by a young man in a weak crown. How can they not be surprised? Besides, it is also the face of Confucianism after the Kong family. Flower racks are held by people. They still want to give this face.


    "Thank you for your praise. The grass people deserve it." Kong huisuo said modestly.


    Li Shimin looked at Kong Hui''s cableway with satisfaction: "as Kong Jijiu said just now, is this book written by you?"


    Kong huisuo had already been entrusted by Kong Yingda and was about to accept it. Suddenly, his mind flashed Merton''s smiling face just now. His heart hesitated for a while. Finally, he clenched his teeth and said, "don''t dare to deceive your majesty. This book was written by Cao min alone, but the idea came from four people, such as Merton and Qin Huaiyu."


    "Ah!"


    There was an uproar in the court, and his eyes could not help but focus on Merton and Cheng Yaojin among the generals.


    Kong Yingda was embarrassed, but who could have thought that Kong huisuo changed his mind at the critical moment and distributed the credit. In this way, Kong huisuo''s credit was diluted all at once.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but look at Cheng Yaojin and others: "is there something else?"


    Cheng Yaojin was stunned, shook his head and said, "the old minister has never heard the dog talk about it."


    "We haven''t heard?" Yuchi Jingde shook his head.


    "If you know your son, it''s OK to let the dog dance a knife and a gun. If you let him lower his head and make up a book, I''m afraid it''s harder than killing him?" Qin Qiong said with a bitter smile.


    "Mo Aiqing?" Li Shimin looked at the last Merton with a smile.


    Merton was helpless to step out and said, "this policy is the whimsical plan of the four of us to pass on the history of history. However, since the defeat of printing and hot-air balloon, he has already given up. Now Qin Huaiyu and others joined the army. Weichen devoted himself to studying ink technology. If brother Kong hadn''t mentioned it, Weichen might not remember it?"


    All the officials were stunned. It was very difficult for ordinary people to make a contribution, and a forgotten idea of Mohist school was like a great contribution. It was more popular than people.


    "It''s nonsense! If it weren''t for Kong huisuo, such a book that benefits the country and the people would be buried." Li Shimin yelled with a stiff face.


    Merton also said with a happy face: "Wei Chen confessed his guilt. Fortunately, when brother Kong entered Beijing for the second time, Wei Chen was accompanying his majesty to visit the ink technology exhibition. Cheng Chumo and his three people entertained brother Kong and learned about it. Only then did this book come out."


    Cheng Yaojin said proudly, "it must be that my dog doesn''t like reading. He wants to use this method to save time and effort."


    When Cheng Yaojin finished, he immediately felt that it was inappropriate. This book was written by a kindergarten child. If Cheng Chumo tried to save himself, wouldn''t he be like a kindergarten child.


    Many officials could not help laughing. Cheng''s face was red with anger. He could not get angry. "This is a bad boy. How can I get him back?"


    Qin Qiong and Yuchi Jingde also hate their teeth.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "don''t be impulsive. If they don''t like reading, how can they come up with the idea of a dictionary? How can they have the blessing of today''s students."


    "That''s true?" Cheng Yaojin quickly said complacently, leaving aside the matter of beating the child at home just now.


    Kong Yingda sighed sadly. He originally wanted to support Kong huisuo. However, after Cheng Yaojin made such a joke, he immediately reduced Kong huisuo''s credit to the lowest.

 Chapter 907

    Qin Qiong was more sensitive and noticed this. She arched her hands and said, "dogs and others are so naughty that you are amused. The three came up with lazy ideas, but they are too lazy to do it. Fortunately, after Kong Sheng''s painstaking efforts, they can only write a book after a year, otherwise they will cover the Pearl with dust."


    Cheng Yaojin also suddenly came over and nodded: "Kong huisuo, I heard that the dog mentioned you and said that you are one of the few Confucian scholars in the Imperial College who can see each other. Sure enough, the younger generation is awesome."


    "Thank you for your praise," Kong huisuo said respectfully.


    Kong Yingda was relieved. Fortunately, the three mallets rounded the scene back, and the focus of Chaozhong was on Kong huisuo.


    Li Shimin nodded, looked at Kong huisuo and said, "since it is Kong Sheng, he has compiled such a valuable book for children all over the world, but he will be a teaching assistant in the Imperial College first. The grade is seven grades higher."


    "Seven grade teaching assistant!" Kong Yingda couldn''t help sighing. According to his plan, Kong Yingda could be sent to Chongwen hall. In this way, it would be much better than staying in the Imperial College.


    Kong huisuo was thinking of thanking him when he suddenly heard Merton Lang''s voice: "Your Majesty, wait a minute. I think brother Kong''s dictionary has a great merit to be ignored. Your Majesty''s reward is suspected of neglecting the meritorious officials?"


    "Oh! Great credit? Don''t talk nonsense, you boy. If you have a good relationship with Kong huisuo, you can ask for credit for him." Li Shimin warned.


    Kong huisuo also looked at a loss. He compiled the dictionary. How many achievements did he know? Where would he make great contributions.


    Even Kong Yingda was in doubt. He didn''t know what Merton meant by this move.


    Merton said proudly, "tell your majesty, if you only rely on the dictionary, your natural achievement is not great. If you are connected with the primary school, it is a great achievement."


    "Hum! Talk quickly!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. He hated Merton''s betrayal most.


    Morton was immediately embarrassed. He picked up a dictionary and said, "Your Majesty, please look at the dictionary. Brother Kong not only used radicals and strokes to sort for searching, but also used phonology to arrange the homophonic parts in order."


    "So what?" Li Shimin didn''t understand.


    Merton laughed and said, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. The so-called ten miles of different sounds and hundreds of miles of different customs. My Tang Dynasty covers a land of thousands of miles. I''m afraid it''s time for the tone. For example, when southerners go to the north and communicate with people, it''s like talking to chickens and ducks and casting pearls before swine."


    "Rude!" duchuke sneered at Merton.


    Merton retorted: "this is a fact. Take your adults for example. They must be elites all over the world. You have stayed in Chang''an City for a long time and naturally speak Mandarin. However, you ask yourself, compared with today''s language and childhood language, I''m afraid your local accent has changed!"


    Many officials have been silent. They have lived in Chang''an City for a long time. Sometimes when they go back to visit their relatives, they really find that the local accent has changed. The villagers can naturally understand what they say, but it is difficult for them to understand what they say. Sometimes they slowly adapt in a few days.


    "What does this have to do with your great achievements?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "Of course, it does matter. This dictionary is compiled according to homonymy. If we go further, we should compile this pronunciation according to Chang''an Mandarin, and then let the master teach it to every student by primary school education. In this way, all students in the world learn the same voice. Isn''t it the completion of homonymy that Qin Shihuang didn''t achieve?" Merton said excitedly.


    "Homonymy!"


    "Homonymy!"


    Merton was like dropping a deep-water bomb, and immediately blew up the calm and wave free chaotang into a choppy sea,


    The dignitaries who are not surprised by the honor and Disgrace in ordinary days are now surprised one by one. No one thought that such a grand plan should come from the hands of two young men with weak crowns. If they hadn''t seen it with their own eyes, I''m afraid they couldn''t believe it.


    Li Shimin stood up excitedly and couldn''t help pacing up and down. Qin Shihuang burned books and scholars and promoted tyranny. However, no matter how future generations discredit Qin Shihuang, they can''t erase the credit of Qin Shihuang, that is, books are the same, cars are on the same track, unified weights and measures, and the world is one.


    This is the feat of Qin Shihuang, which can not be surpassed by any emperor in previous dynasties. Now the Tang Dynasty will be able to realize another plan of world unification, that is, homonymy,


    The thought of being on a par with Qin Shihuang is a great temptation for Li Shimin, who pays attention to reputation.


    At this moment, Kong Yingda''s eyes became inexplicable when he looked at Merton. Originally, Merton messed up Kong huisuo''s credit, and he resented in his heart. At the moment, Merton turned his hand and gave Kong huisuo a great achievement.


    "There are different dialects all over the world. Homonymy is not only convenient for students to communicate all over the Tang Dynasty, but also a powerful tool for education. For officials to take office in different places, when a capital official first comes to take office in different places, even the local words don''t work. How to govern the people? If homonymy doesn''t have such inconvenience." Merton added another fire.


    Many officials nodded one after another. They came to Chang''an City from all directions and felt it inconvenient to speak. I''m afraid they will encounter the same situation when they go to another place. If the world is homonymous, there will be no obstacles.


    Merton said again: "In addition to educating the people of the Tang Dynasty, it also works wonders for all ethnic groups in the border area. Since ancient times, how many barbarians have invaded China, and now they are settled? Not all of them are Chinese integration. However, such integration is passive and potential. If we take the initiative to set up primary schools in all ethnic groups of barbarians, teach Chinese characters, speak Chinese and promote Chinese etiquette, when these teenagers grow up, understand etiquette and speak Chinese With the same language, writing the same words and wearing the same clothes as us, even if they are blonde Hu people, how can you say that he is not Han? "


    Officials nodded one after another. If a blonde hu man wore a Han suit, they thought he was just bathing in monkeys and crowns. If he opened his mouth and spoke fluent Mandarin, he would naturally feel cordial.


    "Take the repeated rebellions of various bureaucrats in Southwest China as an example. The biggest reason is that the language and customs are different and the communication is not smooth. If chaotang opened the primary school to every village and taught them the Mandarin that can be used everywhere, it will change customs and customs for a long time and quietly integrate into China. At that time, Huayi will not be an empty talk." Merton said excitedly.


    "I''m afraid it''s not as easy as mohou!" Du Chuke couldn''t help laughing back.


    Merton said proudly, "if one generation cannot succeed, then two, three and five generations. As the saying goes, ten years of trees and a hundred years of people, within a hundred years, even Tuyuhun, just conquered by Datang, can become the most loyal and inseparable land of Datang. This is the Centennial plan of Datang."


    "A centennial plan."


    For a moment, Li Shimin''s heart pounded. This is the best weapon for domestication. In this way, every place conquered by the Tang Dynasty, just carry out it according to this, and it will certainly give China a firm foothold in a hundred years.

 Chapter 908

    Many ministers also nodded again and again. All dynasties attached great importance to the stability of rule, especially the barbarian border areas, which were the hardest hit areas of rebellion, which broke the hearts of all dynasties.


    If all ethnic groups in the border area are integrated with China and become one from then on, the natural border area will be stable. The border area has been unstable since ancient times. Unless the world is in chaos at the end of the dynasty, I haven''t heard of repeated rebellion in the Central Plains.


    "Mohou took it for granted! How can those Nanyi be willing to learn Chinese?" Du Chuke rejected.


    Merton snorted coldly and proudly said: "In the whole world, is it the king''s land? Is it the king''s ministers who lead the land? Since they belong to the Tang Dynasty, how can they resist the brilliant civilization of the Han people for thousands of years, not to mention that the bureaucrats in the southwest don''t even have words? Besides, there are many people who like the Tang Dynasty in these barbarian places. They only need a little guidance, or they directly stipulate that they can''t serve as the ministry if they don''t know Chinese Falling leader is good at the top and effective at the bottom. With the progress from generation to generation, it is first required that your children must go to school. After the Tang Dynasty is completely in control, it is finally required that all children must go to school. Like the Mohist village, it is not necessarily impossible to implement compulsory education. Compared with the money spent on leading troops to fight the rebellion, what is the cost of building a primary school? "


    Many officials nodded again and again. This is indeed a feasible method. The bureaucrats in the southwest are both flat and flat, and the imperial court is very annoyed. If education domestication is implemented, all ethnic groups in these border areas can integrate with the Han people for up to a hundred years. This is a once and for all method. They can still calculate this account.


    However, the Minister of Civil Affairs jumped out and retorted: "the so-called compulsory education is just the delusion of Mojia village. It is naturally easy for you to carry out compulsory education in Mojia village. If you really carry out compulsory education in barbarian places, where will I go in the Tang Dynasty? If the whole world carries out compulsory education, do you know how much money and food it will cost, even if you empty the Ministry of civil affairs?"


    Merton raised his head and said, "as the saying goes, ten years of trees and a hundred years of people, if we don''t do anything, it will be just an empty talk. Moreover, we don''t implement compulsory education, we just need to promote primary schools."


    Many aristocratic families look at each other. If primary schools are really promoted in the world, I''m afraid in less than ten years, Datang will be full of scholars, and the educational rights controlled by aristocratic families will be lost.


    "This matter needs to be considered in the long run. Your majesty has just ordered to build hospitals in all roads of the Tang Dynasty, which has cost more than MI. If you build schools all over the country, I''m afraid it will be difficult for the imperial court to meet the financial gifts for three years." the Minister of Civil Affairs stubbornly objected.


    Kong Yingda gritted his teeth and said, "this matter can also be solved. Private schools in the world can be transformed into primary schools. The students'' training alone is enough to support the teacher''s salary."


    In normal times, the Confucius family stood with the aristocratic family, but now when it comes to the prosperity of the Confucius family, Kong Yingda naturally did not hesitate to consider for the Confucius family.


    Merton echoed: "as for the barbarian land, you can choose the three Liao states that change the land to flow as a pilot. If it is feasible, it can be promoted to all Liao states in the southwest and even the whole Datang.


    The Minister of Civil Affairs sneered: "now the construction of the Weishui bridge has hollowed out the Ministry of civil affairs. Do you pay for the Mohist School in the three Liao States?"


    "The Mohist school is naturally willing to make a modest contribution to the long-term plan and education. The Mohist village is willing to donate 10000 yuan to the Red Cross Society to build a primary school and hire teachers in liaozhou." Merton said.


    It is not appropriate for the Mohists to take the initiative to pay. However, if the red cross comes forward, it is very appropriate and will not arouse the vigilance of the three states.


    "Hum!" Du Chuke sneered, "in the three states, there are many wars and poor bureaucrats. Even if your Mohist school pays to build a school, no students can afford to repair it."


    "Guan Zi said: people in the warehouse know etiquette, and people in the three states know honor and disgrace when they have enough food and clothing. However, getting rich is the strength of Mohism. Mohism will teach them Mohist ink skills at the same time, so that the three states will change their poverty and backwardness." Merton said proudly.


    Kong huisuo was unwilling to show weakness and said, "the grass people personally took the lead in entering liaozhou, publicized the civilizing etiquette, tested and compiled homonyms on the spot, and compiled a practical rhyme book and civilizing book for the Tang Dynasty."


    The eyes of the whole hall immediately focused on Merton and Kong huisuo. All along, the world has known that Confucianism and Mohism have different ideas and debate constantly. However, we have never seen the sincere cooperation between the two best young generations of Confucianism and Mohism. This scene that has never happened in a thousand years surprised the whole hall.


    What is more unexpected is that the cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism is like great power. If it is really realized, it will be a great benefit to Datang.


    "Well, it''s a great relief to me that the Confucian and Mohist families can put aside their prejudices and cooperate sincerely." Li Shimin said Longyan Dayue. The scene in front of him let Li Shimin know that he can''t help a hundred families.


    "This is my duty!" Morton and Kong huisuo said respectfully at the same time.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, got up and said, "Kong huisuo, listen to the order!"


    "Wei Chen is here!" Kong huisuo, the new seventh grade assistant, said proudly.


    "I hereby appoint you as the head of the Ministry of rites, and go to Yazhou, Jiazhou and Lingzhou to be responsible for educating the staff." Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "Yes, I will certainly make the three states of Liao people a place where etiquette prevails!" Kong huisuo said firmly.


    Kong Yingda could not help nodding slightly. Kong huisuo could go to Sanzhou to do practical work, which was much better than his qualifications in Chongwen hall.


    Li Shimin turned his head and looked at the ministers fiercely. "I announce that from now on, private schools around the Tang Dynasty will gradually transform primary schools. Other official schools will remain unchanged. This is the Centennial plan of the Tang Dynasty. If anyone secretly obstructs it, I will not spare it."


    The aristocratic families sighed helplessly and knew that the matter had become a foregone conclusion. Moreover, this was an opportunity for the Kong family to greatly increase its reputation. Naturally, they would not give up easily. Coupled with Li Shimin''s support and the reasons for educating the interests of saints, they had no reason to stop it.


    Li Shimin can''t help but brighten his eyes when he sees this situation. The Mohist School and Confucianism are naturally selfless for their own ideas, while the aristocratic family is wholeheartedly considering for themselves and fighting against the aristocratic family''s private desires with hundreds of great achievements, which can check and balance each other.


    Li Shimin was suddenly enlightened. He finally saw the opportunity to solve the problems of the aristocratic family. He couldn''t help looking at Kong Yingda, Lang Shengdao and Kong Aiqing. You are the Imperial College, offering wine, in charge of the world school, and entrusted the task of transforming the private school into a primary school to you? In order to promote homonymy in the future? "


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help but feel a little excited. Once primary schools were all over the world, the students all over the world were able to teach without class. This was a wish that Confucius, the ancestor, had not fulfilled at that time. After the unremitting efforts of the thirty-one generation of the Kong family, it was finally realized in his hands.


    "I will do my best and die!" Kong Yingda said solemnly. For the sake of the status of Confucianism and the Confucius family, he would not hesitate to break to pieces. Not to mention that his nephew started to compile the homophonic rhymes of speech. Once completed, the prestige of Confucius and Confucianism will certainly be at its peak, surpassing all 100 schools.

 Chapter 909

    The aristocratic families are all smiling bitterly. For others, the aristocratic families can secretly attack the black hand and crowd out with one heart. However, for the Confucius family, they have nothing to do. After Kong Sheng, if they dare to plot against him, they will certainly be pointed out by thousands of scholars all over the world.


    "However, your majesty, I have a question. Please solve your doubts." Kong Yingda suddenly changed his words.


    Li Shimin was in a good mood when he solved a big problem. He waved his hand and said, "Kong Aiqing, please tell me what doubts I have. I''ll solve them for you."


    Kong Yingda asked his majesty to transform Tianxia private school into a primary school in order to promote homonymy. However, there is still a kind of school in the world, which is not under the jurisdiction of Weichen.


    "Oh! What kind of school is it?" Li Shimin was stunned.


    Kong Yingda turned to Merton and said solemnly, "that''s the compulsory education in Mojia village. I''m ashamed to say that the idea of this primary school was created by mohou. It''s a model of primary school and should be the first in the world. In fact, this is the self run school in Mojia Village, but it''s a private school."


    All officials were human beings. They were stunned and stared at Kong Yingda and Merton. No one thought that Kong Yingda wanted to control the education of Mohism in order to suppress Mohism.


    Just now, the scene of sincere cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism is still fresh in my mind. Li Shimin is complacent about the strategy of 100 families against the aristocratic family. However, in a twinkling of an eye, the boat of friendship between Confucianism and Mohism turned over.


    "The Imperial College is in charge of the schools in the world, and the Mojia village is naturally included. Naturally, it should be under the supervision of the Imperial College." Du Chuke fell into a well and said.


    "However! As Lord Mo said just now, is it the king''s land in the world, the king''s officials who lead the land, and the Mojia village is also a place outside the law?" Yu Zhining rushed to kill him.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Kong huisuo stared at the situation in the chaotang hall. Just now, the Confucianism and Mohism cooperated sincerely. In the twinkling of an eye, the gun tip of the Manchu Dynasty was aimed at the Mohist school again. In the middle, he was in a dilemma and had to hang his head helplessly.


    Merton did not panic at all, and retorted: "naturally, the Mojia village is not a place outside the law and naturally accepts the supervision of the chaotang. However, the Mojia implements primary education and free compulsory education for all villagers. I don''t know how Kong Jijiu thinks the Mojia village should be improved?"


    Many ministers were suddenly dumbfounded. In terms of the scale and level of education, Mojia village can be said to be a model in the world. They can''t start even if they pick a bone in an egg!


    Kong Yingda suddenly smiled strangely and said, "the free compulsory education in Mojia village is naturally a model in the world. However, as far as I know, the textbooks used by the yiprimary school in Mojia village are very different from other schools. Kong is in charge of the world school thanks to his Majesty''s love. At that time, he will rebuild the Chinese language in order to promote homophony. At that time, Kong hopes that Mojia village will not become a place outside the law."


    Merton suddenly looked up and said in surprise, "are you going to rebuild Chinese?"


    "It''s natural that the previous Chinese was compiled by Master Li alone. Although there are some advantages, this time it''s about the Centennial plan of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, it''s necessary to summon great scholars to compile it again." Kong Yingdali should be in power, and other officials also supported Kong Yingda and turned to Confucianism.


    Merton couldn''t help pondering. Kong Yingda''s purpose is very good. His revision of the Chinese language is naturally biased towards Confucianism. If the Mohist village adopts Confucian textbooks, aren''t all the children of the Mohist school affected by Confucianism? Is such a Mohist school still Mohist?


    Li Shimin''s eyes also flashed. He looked back and forth at Merton and Kong Yingda, but he didn''t move. He needed a hundred families to check and balance, and naturally he also wanted to see a hundred families check and balance each other.


    Merton''s heart moved and said with a smile: "The master offered wine for the Imperial College, which is the duty of the master, and the Mohist school will naturally abide by it. However, as far as the boy knows, the primary school is not only run by Confucianism. Doctors need to recruit apprentices from it. The military recruits plan needs to recruit soldiers who are loyal, patriotic and able to read words. Students need to understand China''s history and the geography of the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty. How can these be just four books and five classics If you can include it, Weichen believes that the matter of re compiling Guowen must be discussed by a hundred schools! "


    "The discussion of a hundred schools!" Kong Yingda shrunk his eyes. Although he respected Confucianism alone, if the discussion of a hundred schools was held, Confucianism was only one of a hundred schools. In the first two discussions of a hundred schools, Confucianism made soy sauce all the way.


    Cheng Yaojin was the first to go out to lie Lang and said, "the minister and others seconded that the students taught by those sour scholars simply despise the soldiers. In this way, how to implement the recruit plan, the newly revised Chinese must publicize the army, so that every student should have the ideal of writing and joining the army like ban Chao."


    "That''s good! Join the army and make contributions!" many generals echoed Cheng Yaojin''s ideas.


    Kong Yingda''s nose was almost crooked. All the students joined the army. Let the Minister of the Ministry of war be his sacrificial wine.


    However, this did not end. An unexpected person made Kong Yingda calm down instantly.


    "You can be wise to read history. As long as you are a Chinese, even a peddler and pawn can be proud of China''s thousands of years of civilization history. I think people all over the world should also understand China''s history." Yan shigu proudly listed.


    All officials were stunned. You should know that Yan shigu''s ancestor was one of the disciples of the Confucius family. Although Yan shigu studied history, he was the branch of Confucianism, but he didn''t expect to stand on the opposite of Confucianism today.


    Kong Yingda looks embarrassed. However, Confucianism and historians are in the same vein. Coupled with the millennial friendship between the Confucius and Yan families, I''m afraid there will be a rift today.


    "However, as a person of the Tang Dynasty, it is natural to know how vast the territory of the Tang Dynasty is, and how vast the territory is. My ministers think it is very necessary for every student to understand the local conditions and customs of various states." a glimmer of excitement flashed on Li Tai''s face. If his "including local chronicles" can be included in the Chinese language and let students all over the world know, it will be a great honor.


    "It''s a big taboo to be absent from work and not to be separated from grain. It''s also good for students all over the world to understand the farmers!" Su Lingnong, the big Minister of agriculture, also said for the farmers.


    "Although Taoism is detached from the world, the writings of Lao and Zhuang are also treasures in the world, which should be heard by students all over the world." Taishi made Li Chunfeng unwilling to be weak.


    "Only by popularizing the law for all the students in the world and abiding by the law can the world be stable." Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, said proudly.


    "Doctors are also......" the imperial doctor ordered to bite his teeth and take a big step, presenting a memorial in the court for the first time in his life.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, there were hundreds of schools of thought contending in the Imperial Hall, and each family was unwilling to be outdone. Anyone knows that only in this way can the hundred schools of thought gain a firm foothold. Otherwise, they will only disappear from the public, just like the disappearing hundred schools of thought, which will only be recorded by historians and disappear into the river of history.


    Kong Yingda''s face was as gloomy as water. He didn''t expect that the primary school that popularized the world had not started, and a hundred families were already unwilling to be lonely. What made him regret was that he was just about to want to be a Yin Mohist, but he was summoned to the collective palace of other 100 families with the rhythm of Mohist.


    In addition, Kong Yingda just offended many aristocratic families for the sake of the Kong family, and the whole court became isolated when Kong Yingda arrived.


    Kong Yingda clenched his teeth and said, "in that case, hold a hundred house discussion."


    Even if it was a hundred house meeting, as the Imperial College, he still had the right to make a toast and rebuild the Chinese language. Kong Yingda naturally had no fear.

 Chapter 910

    Guozijian.


    When Merton stepped into the Imperial College again, he couldn''t help feeling. Although he was only in the Imperial College for one year, it was very rare for him to recall.


    "That''s the Mo family?" a group of prison students looked at Merton who had entered the Imperial College and pointed out one after another. Although Merton had graduated, his legend of staying in the Imperial College was still circulating among the prison students.


    "It''s really him!" some old supervisor students nodded solemnly. After Merton graduated, some Guozi supervisor students will continue their studies. How can they admit their mistakes about the influential figures of Guozi supervisor in those years.


    "It''s said that this time Mohism and Confucianism jointly promoted homonymy, but they fell out again because of the revision of Chinese?" a well-informed supervisor spread gossip.


    "Tianxia college is under the jurisdiction of Guozi prison. It is the duty of offering wine to revise the national text. How can he interfere with the Mohist school without authorization." a freshman looked at the Mohist School''s discontent and snorted coldly.


    "A Mohist school is naturally not regarded by Confucianism, but if the other hundred schools are added together, it will be different." the old student looked at the people coming up. He couldn''t help looking dignified, but he was very familiar with the person who was the first. "


    "Doctor of law, Han Fuzi!"


    Han Fuzi was the pillar of the Imperial College at that time. Unfortunately, he was finally dissatisfied with Li Shimin''s amnesty for death row prisoners, and finally resigned angrily. Then he lived in seclusion in Mojia village and set up a legal column in Mojia magazine. He repeatedly pointed out unjust, false and wrong cases, which was sought after by people all over the world.


    "Taoist Taishi ordered Li Chunfeng!"


    "Doctor Sun Simiao!"


    "Duke Lu bite gold!"


    "Historian Yan shigu."


    "Public loser!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    These are all high-power, important and respected. Among them, in addition to the Mohist school, there are two young faces, that is, Li Tai, king of Wei, and Zu Mingjun, the representative of the nonexistent line of mathematics.


    One hundred scholars gathered in the Imperial College. Naturally, it was for the sake of the hundred scholars'' discussion. In order to highlight the status of Confucianism, Kong Yingda directly set the place of the hundred scholars'' discussion in the Imperial College.


    "It''s a great honor for all of you to come to the Imperial College." Kong Yingda took the seat of the home court and said with grace.


    "I''m so abrupt," Li Chunfeng said first. However, the population of hundreds of families is abrupt, but their bodies are extremely honest. After all, this is the lifeblood of hundreds of families in the future. Naturally, they dare not neglect it at all.


    "Please sit down!"


    Kong Yingda waved his hand and led the crowd to a big round table.


    They sat down, but they found that Kong Yingda did not sit on the throne, but invited Li Tai, king of Wei, to the throne.


    Li Tai coughed and pretended to be a heavy supporter and said, "my king came here today to send a message instead of my father and Emperor. Our Tang Dynasty is based on education and renovates Chinese culture. We must educate the people''s etiquette, abide by discipline and law, be loyal to the king and patriotic, which is beneficial to the people and the DPRK."


    After Li Tai finished, Kong Yingda got up and arched his hands and said, "Your Majesty is wise."


    The other hundred families got up and agreed. However, Merton and everyone knew that Li Shimin was beating the hundreds of families. He could not only care about the interests of the hundreds of families, but also ignore the imperial court and the people. After all, the lessons of the family were right in front of him, and Li Shimin had to guard against the hundreds of families.


    "Please give a toast to Kong about Sinology!" Li Tai arched his hands towards him.


    Kong Yingda looked solemn and said in a loud voice, "thank you for your new appointment. The old minister will certainly not disappoint your majesty."


    So far, the hundred house discussion officially began.


    "The primary school lasts for six years, half a year is a semester, and there are twelve copies of Chinese. The purpose of this revision of Chinese is to cultivate usable people for the imperial court and open up the wisdom of the people. I hope you will cooperate sincerely and contribute to the great scale." Kong Yingda looked around and took the lead in setting the tone.


    "Since it''s twelve, it''s just the same as the number of people here. How about learning a hundred theories every six months?" as Kong Yingda''s voice fell, Cheng Yaojin said carelessly.


    Kong Ying Darden was so angry that one Buddha came out of the body and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. If each family studied for half a year, he would hold a hundred schools of thought to discuss why and where to place the exclusive position of Confucianism.


    Before Kong Yingda retorted, he saw Merton take the initiative to say, "Uncle Cheng doesn''t know anything. Most of the first two years of primary school were literate and couldn''t understand the theories of hundreds of schools, let alone join the army and serve the country by example."


    Cheng Yaojin suddenly said, "so Chumo was wronged by the beatings he received when he was a child?"


    People from hundreds of families suddenly laughed and laughed. I''m afraid only Cheng Yaojin''s mallet can let a six-year-old child learn military books.


    Merton covered his head and mourned for Chumo deeply.


    "Since the book of war is not good, those frontier fortress poems should be taught!" Cheng Yaojin said angrily.


    "This is OK!" Kong Yingda waved his big hand and nodded in agreement. He didn''t want to quarrel with Cheng Yaojin.


    Li Chunfeng saw the way: "Lao Zhuang theory is broad and profound, and govern by doing nothing. This is the essence of the world, and it is universal to be universal."


    Kong Yingda retorted, "if there are more and more Taoists in the world and the people devote themselves to cultivating immortals, what is the benefit to the country and the people? Moreover, how can an ignorant student understand Lao Zhuang''s learning?"


    "Mohism..."


    As soon as Merton spoke, Kong Yingda waved his hand and said, "I didn''t deliberately embarrass the Mohist school. For the Mohist art, it''s hard to achieve anything without ten years of training, let alone a few-year-old child. You think everyone is a talented and intelligent Wu Meiniang."


    Merton opened his mouth and was about to refute, but he found that some were speechless. The Mohist theory was indeed too obscure.


    "However, mohou''s Three Character Classic has its merits and can be used as an enlightenment for newly enrolled students." Kong Yingda said proudly, as if Mohism had taken much advantage of it. However, the Three Character Classic is an enlightenment for all children all over the world. If primary schools want to achieve something, they can''t do without the Three Character Classic! "


    Merton nodded helplessly and said, "in addition to the Three Character Classic, the concept of universal love and non aggression of Mohism must be incorporated into the Chinese language."


    "But!" Kong Yingda smiled proudly.


    However, Zu Mingjun looked at Merton in surprise, which was not like Merton''s style, but although he was confused, he didn''t show any doubt.


    "There are many witch doctors lying in the world. I hope to publicize doctors and health knowledge in Chinese. If I get sick, I will see a doctor in time, so as not to delay my life." Sun Simiao said earnestly.


    If other doctors say so, it must be suspected of soliciting business. However, when Sun Simiao says this, everyone knows that he must be from the bottom of his heart.


    "Doctor sun''s words are very good!" Kong Yingda nodded. The rise of doctors is good for everyone. Sun Simiao naturally felt that even a dominant Confucian school had no resistance to the rise of doctors.


    "Gongshu class creates excellent tools for craftsmen all over the world. It is the ancestor of craftsmen and should be known to the people all over the world." Gongshu family has a low status and doesn''t dare to ask. It''s enough to make the name of Gongshu class known all over the world.


    "Historian............"


    "My king!..."


    With the progress of the hundred house discussion, all the hundred houses where the lion spoke were defeated one by one by Kong Yingda, who took the initiative. Finally, only Legalists remained. Kong Yingda was worried when he saw this old friend who had worked with him for more than ten years, but he knew how persistent Han Fuzi was.


    Han Zheng said solemnly: "legalism is also not understood by young children. However, this primary school stage is a time when young children are immature. Even if crimes are still not punished by the law, it is the most vulnerable period. I think there is no need to publicize Legalism in Chinese, but we must let students learn to abide by the law to avoid going astray, and learn to protect themselves with the law."


    A hundred people nodded one after another. Han Zheng''s words were indeed pertinent and selfless.


    "Kong must do it." Kong yingdaji said first, admiring this old opponent.


    As the hundreds of speakers finished speaking, Kong Yingda stood up and looked around and said, "you wait for the requirements of the hundreds, Kong will certainly integrate into the Chinese language. In order to show fairness, each of the hundreds can provide some classic articles of the hundreds of schools, which the National Academy of Sciences will choose from."


    A hundred schools of thought were silent for a while. Although it was said that there were only a dozen or so of them who could get together here. However, for each article, the rest was allocated by Confucianism. Confucianism accounted for at least 60% of a textbook, and a hundred of them only accounted for 40%, but none of them fought for it, After all, this is due to the exclusive respect of Confucianism, and before, they had no place in education.


    Kong Yingda nodded with satisfaction. He had to give 40% of the profits to 100 families. After all, each family has its own uniqueness, and its contribution can not be erased. Moreover, these 40% are divided equally by 100 families, and each family has less right to speak. In this way, it is basically determined that one Confucian family is dominant, and the other 100 schools restrict each other in a balanced manner, The status of Confucianism is naturally as stable as Mount Tai.

 Chapter 911

    The revision of the Chinese language has been agreed. Just when the people thought that the hundred house discussion was coming to an end, Kong Yingda got up and bowed his hands to the people of the hundred house and said, "today, we''ll get together. Thanks to one person, I think we''re not strangers."


    Kong Yingda stretched out his hand and saw an old man who was thin but hale and hearty in front of a hundred families.


    "Strange Confucian Li duo!"


    "Master Li?"


    Everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly, Kong Yingda took this person to baijiayi.


    "Li duo has seen you!" Master Li arched around. However, when he looked at Merton among the hundred families, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes. His master''s college and primary school still developed with the support of Mohism, and now he chose to cooperate with Confucianism and completely separate from Mohism for the future of his master''s college and primary school.


    "Master Li, you''re welcome!" everyone saluted back one after another.


    Kong Yingda stopped between Merton and Li duo without any trace. Lang said, "it seems simple to transform the private school into a primary school, but it is very difficult. Once it is transformed into a primary school, although the number of students increases, the demand for teachers will also increase sharply. I don''t say whether the private school is willing to be transformed into a primary school. Even if it is, I''m afraid even teachers are not enough."


    Hundreds of schools nodded. A primary school has six grades, and even the most streamlined primary school needs at least 12 teachers. As a result, there is a serious shortage of teachers. At this moment, people understand that the reason why Kong Yingda pushed Li duo to the front stage is probably the master''s College in Li duo''s hands.


    "Let alone promote homonymy in the future. Only if the master can speak Mandarin, can he teach students to learn Mandarin. In this way, we can achieve homonymy in the world. Therefore, the master''s business is the top priority, otherwise today''s hundred schools of thought will be empty talk." Kong Yingda Lang said that he had revised the hundred schools of thought to ensure the status of Confucianism, Now it is time to lay the foundation for Kong huisuo''s homonymy, and the master''s college is the top priority to realize the homonymy in the world.


    "Thank you, Master Li!" a hundred people bowed their hands to Li duo.


    Master Li replied, "you are serious. It is a lifelong wish of a master to open the mind for the people all over the world and teach the way of saints. This is what Li should do."


    A hundred schools were immediately awed. Merton immediately understood the reason why Mr. Li was willing to merge with Confucianism. If he wanted to open the wisdom of the people all over the world, Mohism alone was difficult to support, and he couldn''t get around the Confucianism who controlled the private schools all over the world.


    Mr. Li looked around and said: "There are millions of students in Datang. However, there are only 100000 people who enter the official school in this way every year, and only more than 10000 scholars can be admitted. Few of them are cited, and more are children''s voices who have studied hard for many years. Many students study hard the books of sages until their beards are gray, but they still stop at children''s scholars. They spend their youth, waste money and money, and are ridiculed For poor scholars and sour scholars. "


    What Master Li said is the bitterness of Confucianism. Although Confucianism has a unique position, there are several more people who can be officials every year. More people who read books have not been rewarded and have been ridiculed by the world.


    Cheng Yaojin felt empty and lowered his head unnaturally.


    "I think that once primary schools are popularized all over the world, there will be more teachers. The teacher college alone will not cultivate so many teachers in a short time. Anyone who is admitted to the scholar and child student can apply for a teacher, which can solve the problem of insufficient teachers and give students all over the world more ways to make a living." Master Li Lang said. The knowledge of primary school is very simple. Even children can easily teach it, and the gold content of children in this era is quite high. Naturally, there will be no harm to people''s children.


    Kong Yingda could not help nodding. This is the reason why Confucianism is determined to win primary schools. Once implemented, it will be a kindness to directly attract readers all over the world.


    "If these children and scholars still want to catch up with the exam and affect teaching, what should they do?" Yan shigu frowned.


    Master Li had already prepared for this and said, "it''s really possible. I wonder if the Toastmasters can go to the ritual department and set the time for the county and state examinations on the field vacation? In this way, they will not delay the students'' entry into school and will not affect these masters'' rush to the examination."


    "I will try my best!" Kong Yingda nodded without hesitation. There is plenty of time for the field holiday for a full month. Besides, these scholars don''t have to farm in person, and they won''t delay the farming work.


    Sitting on the throne, Li Tai could not help but frown and said, "the teacher''s idea was certainly very good. However, at that time, the purpose of changing the world private school into a primary school was to promote homonymy. Although those scholar children had extraordinary knowledge, most of them grew up in the local area. I''m afraid they couldn''t speak Mandarin at all! How could they promote homonymy?"


    Li Tai kept in mind today''s mission, first, to compile his local chronicles into Chinese, second, to let the primary school cultivate the idea of loyalty to the royal family, and more importantly, to prepare for the promotion of homonymy in the future.


    "This is a transitional stage! Only when the structure of primary schools in the world is well structured can we promote homonymy. Once the compilation of homonymy is completed, it will be promoted in the world. At that time, all teachers should learn to speak Mandarin, otherwise they will be dismissed immediately, and the rest will be replaced by students from the teachers'' college. In this way, it is the quickest way to promote homonymy." Master Li is confident.


    "What the master said is very true." Li Tai nodded with satisfaction.


    Kong Yingda was slightly proud when he saw this. At that time, all the masters in the world were Confucianism. When teaching, he would naturally favor Confucianism, which insured the status of Confucianism.


    "Do you have any objection?" Kong Yingda looked around.


    Hundreds of schools are silent. Confucianism is powerful. Teachers and schools are controlled by Confucianism. Even if they want to intervene, they don''t have so many hands! There is no Mohist so bold to implement free compulsory education.


    Seeing this, Kong Yingda nodded with satisfaction and was preparing to end the hundred family discussion. Suddenly, Sun Simiao moved in his heart and bowed his hands to Li Duo: "I wonder if the master can train a group of female students for doctors?"


    "Female student?" Li duo was stunned when he heard the speech and looked at Sun Simiao strangely.


    Sun Simiao nodded and said, "however, now doctors need a lot of female doctors, but there are very few literate women in the world. If primary schools can recruit female students, so that doctors can recruit female disciples."


    After Merton built a maternity and children''s Hospital for Princess Changle, he suddenly found a way out for women doctors. If there is a maternity and children''s Hospital in every county in the world, the number of women doctors needed by doctors is a huge number. However, there are few women scholars in the world, which is the most troublesome thing for doctors.


    "No, men and women can''t be careless. How can women go to school and study with men." before Master Li said, historian Yan shigu suddenly changed his color.


    "However, if men and women don''t give and receive, and students read, it''s inevitable that they will lose everything. If they don''t check for a while, I''m afraid they will do something humiliating to the saints.


    "However, a woman without talent is virtue! There is no need to enter school?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Unexpectedly, not only Yan shigu opposed it, but also hundreds of other schools opposed it one after another. The most powerful reason for women to go to primary school is that men and women should be protected.

 Chapter 912

    Sun Simiao didn''t understand: "it''s just a 12-year-old child. He doesn''t understand men''s and women''s affairs at all. What''s more, the rise of female doctors is beneficial to the country and the people."


    Yan shigu snorted coldly, glanced at Merton and said, "doctor sun is painstaking. We naturally know that if I had been painstaking before, I might not object, but now everyone in the world pursues Lord Mo''s" Liang Zhu ". If men and women go to school, I''m afraid it''s inappropriate. This trend can''t last long."


    Seeing that everyone''s eyes were focused on himself, Merton couldn''t help touching his nose. He didn''t expect that the prevalence of "Butterfly Lovers" had become an obstacle to women''s school.


    "Men and women don''t give and receive. When young boys and girls grow up to seven years old, they can''t sleep at the same table, eat at the same table, and sit at the same table. Men and women don''t ask each other, and it''s inappropriate for women to enter school." Li duo decided to deny Sun Simiao''s request.


    "But as far as I know, the compulsory education in Mojia village is coeducation. I don''t know how to explain it." Yan shigu pursued this issue.


    Morton smiled and said, "the Mohist school doesn''t have the theory of men''s and women''s defense. Moreover, the Mohist School believes that men can marry only after eighteen years. After six years of primary school, they are only twelve years old. It doesn''t have anything to do with men''s and women''s defense. In addition, the Mohist village primary school is also divided into classes for men and women, and doesn''t care."


    "It''s very inappropriate to teach in different classes, but still in the same school," Kong Yingda frowned.


    Merton retorted: "Confucianism believes that women''s lack of talent is virtue, while Mohism is the opposite. Mohism believes that women should have both virtue and ability. Only by cultivating women''s virtue and purity and natural self-discipline, why should they fear the defense of men and women, rather than simply separating men and women."


    Kong Yingda''s mouth is crooked. According to the theory of Mohist, Confucianism is not in vain.


    "No, there must be no negligence in the defense between men and women. The fundamental policy is to take preventive measures." Kong Yingda said uncompromisingly.


    Seeing Kong Yingda''s firm attitude, Sun Simiao sighed with regret: "in that case, forget it!"


    This is the key to the rise of doctors. If there is a shortage of young doctors, I''m afraid it will slow the progress of doctors.


    Merton said with a smile, "this matter is easy to solve. Since Confucianism is unwilling to recruit female disciples, the master can choose from Mojia village. No matter men and women must go to school in Mojia village, we can certainly provide enough female medical disciples for doctors."


    "Then there will be Lao Mo Hou," Sun Simiao said with a slight frown.


    It is true that there are a large number of women in Mojia village, but in the face of the huge demand for women doctors, it is still a drop in the bucket, and it is not conducive to the selection of elite talents by doctors.


    However, Kong Yingda frowned when he heard the speech. To know that no matter how exquisite the hundred doctrines are, they also need someone to inherit them. If most of the female doctors of the doctors come from the Mohist village, the doctors are still doctors. Has it not become a vassal of the Mohist school, and the Confucianism personally pushed the doctors to the Mohist school.


    "From my point of view, the doctor is a fan of the situation. Onlookers see clearly. The doctor has established a women''s medical school. If you need women medical apprentices, why not set up a women''s school to train them yourself. In this way, it''s not the best of both worlds." Kong Yingda''s words turned and reminded.


    "Women''s school!"


    "Like the women''s medical school, it only recruits women!"


    Sun Simiao''s eyes lit up. He was black under the light! Doctors already have their own schools to cultivate women doctors. Why not run some women''s schools to transport talents for women''s medical schools, and today''s doctors are not short of money.


    The other hundred schools heard that although they set a precedent for Kong Yingda and made women dissatisfied with entering school, they kept silent. After all, they didn''t want women to enter primary school and didn''t want the Mohists to encroach on doctors. I''m afraid this is the only way.


    "Thank you!" Sun Simiao solemnly thanked the hundreds of doctors. After all, with the tacit consent of the hundreds, the women''s School of doctors can be opened smoothly, which is a rare opportunity for doctors.


    "We are here to congratulate the doctors in advance!" hundreds of families responded one after another. After all, the rise of female doctors is good for everyone.


    Seeing this, Kong Yingda couldn''t help smiling proudly at Merton. When the doctors have a women''s school, they will gradually become independent. One day, they will be completely separated from the Mohists like Li duo''s master''s college.


    Merton smiled. He never thought of controlling Mohist school. However, Kong Yingda took it for granted. If doctors want to prosper, they must be inseparable from Mohist precision instruments. I''m afraid it''s not so easy to disconnect the cooperation between the two countries.


    "The rise of doctors is a great good thing. It''s just that my Mohist school is also going to set up a school. I''m going to tell you so as not to cause misunderstanding." Merton said cunningly.


    The Mohist school will also set up a school! Many hundreds of schools were stunned and fell silent in an instant. It''s not that the Mohists can''t stand loneliness. They want to start teaching disciples. If so, it''s a big news!


    "Misunderstanding? Mohou won''t want to recruit disciples. Open a mountain and establish a sect!" Kong Yingda said seriously.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, this school is not to recruit disciples, but to recruit three-year-old children. Moreover, this is a school where men and women are in the same school, in the same class and at the same table."


    "Three year olds? Boys and girls in the same school, in the same class and at the same table." for a moment, almost everyone stared at Merton puzzled.


    Seeing the people''s eyes staring at him, Merton couldn''t help but show a happy smile and said: "you have also learned that Changle is pregnant. Mo is a father for the first time. Naturally, he also wants his children to become dragons and phoenixes in people."


    Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "you boy, in the hall, you are the Du Chuke who is speechless. Why do you want to recite ancient poetry at the age of three, know a thousand words at the age of five, and be familiar with the four books and five classics at the age of seven? Ah! No, it''s the Mo Jing."


    The other hundred people couldn''t help laughing at what they said. Naturally, they all understand the mood of being a father, and naturally understand what Merton did.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, this school is called kindergarten. It is used to enlighten children. On the one hand, it can make children grow up happily and open their wisdom. It is not to let three-year-old children study hard the books of sages. The real knowledge will still be completed in primary school."


    "Why is this?" Cheng Yaojin didn''t understand.


    "Mo thinks that children''s nature is innocent. A three-year-old and five-year-old child is forced to recite ancient poetry, know thousands of words, even piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It''s so cruel that he can''t be idle." Merton said in a low voice.


    "Confidant!"


    When Li Tai looked at Merton, his eyes became more soft. What Merton said was not his childhood.


    "In such a miserable childhood, I don''t want my children to do it again. However, ordinary people''s children are laissez faire and waste their time. Mo thought of setting up a school specially for children aged three to six. On the one hand, he can make three-year-old children have friends and happy childhood. On the other hand, he can enlighten the mind, teach etiquette and even lay a foundation for future study." Merton Lang said that once the kindergarten has been built for three years, it will become more and more mature, and then his children can naturally enter school.


    Li Tai''s eyes lit up. Such a childhood was what he dreamed of.


    People''s eyes at Merton were a little softer. Merton was a model of a father. First, a maternal and child hospital was built for unborn children to ensure safe birth. Now, before the child was born, it has been arranged three years in advance to create the best education for the child.


    "Of course, Mo has his own selfishness. Nowadays, both men and women work in Mojia village, and most of the children are not taken care of. If you neglect discipline, it may be bad for growth. Once the kindergarten is established successfully, even the children of ordinary people will not lose at the starting line.


    Other hundred families also nodded one after another. They recited ancient poems at the age of three, knew thousands of words at the age of five, and read four books and five classics at the age of seven. That''s just the treatment of the children of rich people. Poor people can only waste their time playing crazy in their hometown fields. It can be said that their natural starting point is different, and kindergartens narrow this gap to the extreme.


    When Li duo heard the speech, he couldn''t help sighing: "this policy is great and good. People all over the world can enjoy equal education."


    It has always been the patent of wealthy families for three-year-old children to enter school. Once there is a kindergarten, ordinary families can easily bear the cost of education. On the one hand, they can make their children better and on the other hand, they can liberate their parents, which has many benefits.


    Merton nodded: "in this world, some people are born noble and others are born poor. However, there is only one fair thing, that is education. Every teacher wants to give everything he has learned in his heart. Every student''s knowledge is obtained by his own efforts. We can never be fair in other aspects. We can only be infinitely close in education."


    On other occasions, Merton was naturally speechless. However, in the face of hundreds of families, they share the same interests in this regard, and Merton naturally spoke freely.


    Everyone nodded, and even Kong Yingda could not help sighing. Although his status today has the influence of the Kong family, what he needs more is his own efforts. At the beginning, he suffered all kinds of hardships in order to study, and he bore the burden of the Kong family''s Millennium reputation. The suffering is not external.


    "We just said that there is no defense between men and women before the age of seven. This policy is feasible in kindergarten, but I think the Three Character Classic can be extracted from the Chinese language, and it is most appropriate to put it in kindergarten as an enlightenment!" Kong Yingda nodded and agreed with Merton''s kindergarten plan, but did not forget to remove the share of Mohism from the Chinese language again.


    "But!" Merton nodded without hesitation. Primary school students are not old enough to specialize in Mo Jing. Just let students know that Mohism loves non aggression.


    Kong Yingda nodded with satisfaction. The main reason why he agreed to build a kindergarten is to take Mojia village as a pilot. If it is really feasible, it can be brought under the jurisdiction of the National Academy of sciences like a primary school in the future.


    At this point, the hundred family discussion officially ended. Before that, no one thought that the two schools of women''s school and kindergarten had been discussed.


    However, everyone did not notice that one of the people present was silent, that is, the ancestor of mathematics. This time, Confucianism monopolized 60% of the book Guowen, which consolidated the position of Confucianism, and the other 100 monopolized 40%. Even if mathematics monopolized one book, everyone subconsciously ignored it.


    Each of the hundred schools of thought has its own gains, but who is not necessarily the one who has gained the most?

 Chapter 913

    "Brother in law, wait a minute!"


    After the discussion, Merton just wanted to leave and was stopped by Li Tai before he took a step.


    "It''s Xiao... No, your highness King Wei! I don''t know what to ask?" Merton was stunned.


    Li Tai''s face turned black, but when he heard Merton change his mouth, his face slowed slightly and said, "now the discussion of 100 families has just ended. I don''t know what''s important for my sister-in-law to leave in a hurry!"


    Merton didn''t think much. Lang said, "Kong huisuo is leaving Beijing for the three Liao States today. I''m going to see him off."


    The three prefectures of civilizing bureaucrats are a model of sincere cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism. Kong huisuo is about to leave, and Merton naturally cannot be absent. Naturally, he wants to see him off.


    "After the Kong family who pioneered the dictionary!" Li Tai''s eyes flashed. Kong huisuo has recently become famous in the Tang Dynasty. Once his dictionary was published, it was widely praised. Almost all students have one, and Chang''an City alone is in short supply. In addition, he is determined to go to a foreign place to test and promote the concept of homonymy, which is even more praised.


    "I admire people with knowledge and ambition most. How can I miss such a great talent? I will regret it all my life." Li Tailang said. He followed Merton into a car as if he were familiar.


    Merton had no choice but to wave his hand and order Tie''an to set up a carriage and take Li Tai to the east gate of Chang''an city.


    Outside the east gate, a mighty Confucian convoy gathered, and many people came to watch. After all, Kong huisuo''s reputation is like thunder in Chang''an city.


    The transformation of Tianxia private schools into primary schools is not done by a handful. First, some teachers are stubborn and unwilling to transform at all. Second, teachers still need time to adapt to the new textbooks. Fortunately, the textbooks in primary schools are not difficult. These are not difficult for those scholars and children, and the final transformation time of primary schools is scheduled for the beginning of spring next year.


    Kong Yingda''s transformation of the primary school is naturally steady, but Kong huisuo''s pilot popularization of homonymy is a little impatient. He has just revised and convened nearly 100 Confucian scholars who can speak Mandarin in Chang''an City, and is ready to set off immediately to Liaoren three states.


    "Brother Mo, your highness King Wei!" Kong huisuo saw Merton and Li Tai coming, and immediately got up to meet each other.


    "Brother Kong, don''t blame me. I''m late!" when they arrived, Kong huisuo was about to leave.


    "It''s not too late, boy. It''s really a surprise that brother Mo can send you off." Kong huisuo originally thought that Confucianism and Mohism broke up again, which has made them strangers. Unexpectedly, Merton came to send you off.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism is a hundred ideas, which does not affect our personal friendship. Moreover, since the Han and Wu dynasties, Confucianism has only respected Confucianism, but Confucianism has made no progress and made no achievements for hundreds of years. Now, hundreds of schools of thought are contending and various theories and ideas are emerging. Isn''t it better to have such a magnificent era?"


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help smiling bitterly. I''m afraid only Merton dared to accuse Confucianism of making no progress for hundreds of years, but he also admitted that what Merton said was the truth.


    When other Confucian scholars heard Merton''s words, they couldn''t help but glare at Merton. Seeing a renewed debate, Kong huisuo quickly led them aside and said, "your highness and brother Mo, please come here. We''ll have a private chat."


    When the three went to the pavilion, Kong huisuo looked at Merton and said, "this trip of Liao people to three states is a matter of sincere cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism. 100 Confucian scholars from Confucianism have arrived in Qi. I don''t know how brother Mo''s commitment is prepared?"


    Merton laughed and said, "brother Kong, don''t worry, Confucianism is so simple, and Mohism will not disappoint Confucianism. As early as three days ago, Mohist village has donated 10000 yuan to the Red Cross as a fund for the construction of school buildings in the three Liao states. At the same time, ten Mohist children will then arrive in the three Liao states to guide the production of the Liao people, so as to help the people in the three states get rich."


    Li Tai fuzhang said: "the cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism is really a match made in heaven. Once the people of the three Liao states are rich and educated by saints, they will be determined to turn to the Tang Dynasty. Over time, there will be no doubt that the Liao state will be in harmony with the Central Plains and no longer have the heart of rebellion."


    "Thank you for your kind words," Kong huisuo said.


    "Once the pilot project in liaozhou is successful, it will certainly be promoted all over the world in the future. At that time, the world will be the same, and China will be a family. What a grand occasion," Li Tai said excitedly.


    Kong huisuo was also excited. However, he suddenly sighed: "if you want the world to be homonymous, you must create a method to make the world homonymous. It''s a pity that Kong is still helpless and has no clue about collecting the world''s books."


    Seeing this, Li Tai laughed and said, "brother Kong, that''s a fan of the situation! The so-called person who needs to untie the bell when tying the bell. If there are experts here, why should brother Kong be modest?"


    As soon as Kong huisuo''s eyes lit up, he couldn''t help looking up at Merton. Yes! It was Merton who proposed homonymy at the beginning. If he wanted to open the deadlock, I''m afraid his hope would fall on Merton.


    Morton smiled bitterly and said, "brother Kong collects the wisdom of a hundred people and collects the world''s books, but he is still helpless. What can I do? You think Mo is omnipotent!"


    When Kong Hui Thornton looked bitter, he couldn''t help saying in a loud voice, "if brother Mo doesn''t have a clue, Kong is afraid to make the plan of ending the old state."


    I''m afraid he will popularize homonymy all his life. If he really can''t find a way to homonymy, I''m afraid he will use the promotion of one Liao state to another, and he can''t complete it all his life.


    When Morton saw Kong huisuo pretending, he couldn''t help but say, "well, don''t pretend. Although there''s no way, Mo still has a clue."


    "I knew brother Mo had a way?" Kong Hui said with a change of face.


    Morton shook his head slightly and said, "brother Kong has searched all over the books of the Tang Dynasty, but he has not searched all over the world. You should know that the Tang Dynasty is not the only civilized country in the world."


    "Foreign books!" Li Tai flashed in his eyes and blurted out.


    "Foreign books?" Kong huisuo frowned. He was an authentic Confucian and devoted himself to the knowledge of Confucius. Even if Mohism got so much benefit from foreign countries, he still didn''t think of reading foreign books.


    Merton nodded: "if brother Kong can read books all over the world, he will find that three kinds of characters are widely used in the world. One is the hieroglyphics represented by Chinese characters, the other is the cuneiform characters represented by Persia and other places, as well as the Pinyin characters of more distant western countries."


    "Hieroglyphics, cuneiform characters, Pinyin characters." Li Tai was stunned. He didn''t expect that there were so many ways for a single character.


    Merton nodded: "hieroglyphics are the most common and the most vivid is the sun moon mountain, which is evolved from specific images."


    Li Tai wrote slowly on the table of the pavilion with his hand. He couldn''t help realizing it.


    "The cuneiform is the oldest and the most obscure, but now even the local people of Persian food don''t want to use it anymore." Merton couldn''t laugh or cry. The cuneiform was completely killed by himself.


    "What we''re going to talk about today is the Pinyin of the Far West," Merton said.


    "Pinyin characters?" Kong huisuo couldn''t help but move in his heart and listen.


    "Pinyin characters are the simplest. Pinyin characters are both sounds and words, which is of great significance to us. Today, my younger brother will give brother Kong the letters and rules of Pinyin characters of the far western country, hoping that brother Kong can be inspired." Merton finished and handed Kong huisuo a book, which is the characters of the far western country collected by the Mohists for the purpose of translating foreign books.


    Kong huisuo solemnly accepted it and said gratefully, "it''s a frog at the bottom of a well. I didn''t expect such a brilliant culture in the world."


    For the first time, as a proud Kong family, he began to pay attention to foreign studies.


    "Farewell!" Kong huisuo stood in front of the Confucian motorcade and arched his hands.


    "Bon Voyage!" Morton and Li Tai arched their hands.


    Before leaving, Kong huisuo suddenly turned around and said solemnly, "if, of course, I take the credit of the dictionary in the court hall, will brother Mo still give my little brother the method of homonymy?"


    Li Tai was stunned. He was stunned. He patrolled back and forth on the two people. The boat of friendship between Confucianism and Mohism has been turned over. Will the friendship between Merton and Kong huisuo repeat the mistakes!


    Merton said without hesitation, "that''s brother Kong''s credit. Since brother Kong let him share the profits selflessly, the younger brother naturally wants to find a chance to compensate brother Kong. The Mohists never let their friends down."


    Kong huisuo heard the speech and was silent for a moment. He solemnly arched his hand and said, "brother Mo, Kong wrote down this favor."

 Chapter 914

    Seeing Kong huisuo''s carriage disappear at the end of the turn, Merton and Li Tai take back their eyes.


    "Where will my brother-in-law go again?" Li Tai saw that Merton was ready to leave, but he came up again.


    "Back to Mo mansion!" Merton said naturally. He is now a good man in the Tang Dynasty. He will go back to accompany pregnant Changle whenever he has free time.


    Li Tai said with a smile, "that''s a good feeling. I haven''t seen sister Changle for a long time. I just went to visit her today."


    "Your Highness King Wei, please!"


    Li Tai''s reason was so aboveboard that he couldn''t find a reason to refute, so he had to bow his hand and invite him.


    Along the way, Li Tai''s eyes looked at Merton from time to time, and he wanted to stop talking several times.


    "Your Highness the king of Wei has something to say. Naturally, my little brother knows everything!" Merton said helplessly.


    Li Tai sighed: "I think I''m familiar with books all over the world. My knowledge is no less than that of the world''s great Confucianism. Today, I''m convinced. You gave a pulse of Tianzhu numbers to make the calculation much easier. Now you give the Confucian foreign Pinyin characters as an opportunity. Coupled with Kong huisuo''s wisdom, it must be a long time before the method of homonymy will be created, and Confucianism must be even better A step, your gentle word is enough to make a hundred schools rise, which makes me sigh as a stop. "


    It has to be said that Merton''s performance just now really shocked Li Tai. It seems that there are endless means in Merton''s hands, which can make an insignificant hundred families prosper.


    Merton stalled and said, "the study of foreign lands is right there. Mo was just the first to learn about it. Mo was just a porter and should not be praised by his Highness the king of Wei."


    "Although everyone knows this, under the leadership of brother Mo, many students in the world are interested in foreign studies. However, most of them return empty handed. Brother Mo is the only one who has been able to find gold in the waves from the seemingly backward and vulgar foreign unique studies. I really admire him." Li Tai couldn''t help sighing.


    "Mo is just the first person to eat crabs?" Merton said calmly, not proud of his achievements.


    "The first person to eat crabs, what''s the explanation? Why has Wang never heard of it? Besides, no one has eaten crabs." Li Tai said strangely, and was instantly aroused by a strong thirst for knowledge.


    Merton laughed and said, "this is a metaphor, but it comes from Mozi''s Secret works."


    "Oh!" Li Tai was very interested in this mysterious book of Mohism. Unfortunately, Merton never showed it to anyone.


    Merton Lang said, "it is said that in the state of Chu in the spring and Autumn period, there was a ferocious beetle with double claws and eight feet in rivers and lakes. It not only digs holes to make rice fields short of water, but also hurts people with claws, so it is called" human trap. "


    Li Tai suddenly thought that this human insect must be the crab.


    "Later, when the state of Chu controlled the water supply, it sent a strong man PLO to supervise the work. The intrusion of human insects seriously hindered the project. PLO came up with a way to dig a ditch around the city and fill the ditch with boiling water. (the popular version is like this! It''s a little exaggerated) When the beetles came, they fell into the ditch and burned to death. The scalded beetles were red and gave off an attractive delicious smell. PLO curiously broke off the shell, and the smell was stronger. He dared to bite. Unexpectedly, the taste was fresh and delicious than anything. So the insect pests feared by people became a household food, and everyone scrambled to eat it, so they caught people The plague of insects is solved.


    In order to appreciate the PLO, who dared to be the first in the world, later generations added the word "insect" under the word "solution", calling the human insect "crab", which means that PLO conquered the human insect and was the first crab eater in the world. "


    "It turns out that crab characters come from this way. This is the essence of hieroglyphics!" Li Tai suddenly said. At the moment, he was very interested in the Chinese character hieroglyphics proposed by Merton.


    Merton nodded and said, "the Mohist Saint sighed with emotion when he heard it: the crab is terrible, ugly and ferocious. The first person in the world to eat crab is a real warrior!"


    Li Tai nodded deeply. The first person to eat crab is very admirable. Who dares to eat it if he is not a warrior?


    Just after Li Tai thought the story was over, he didn''t expect Merton to continue: "the first crab eater really needed a lot of courage, but he also harvested delicious food that ordinary people can''t taste. As the first one to dabble in foreign unique knowledge, the Mohist school, just like the first crab eater, although he paid a high price, he also gained a lot."


    When Li Tai heard the speech, he couldn''t help feeling it. He solemnly said, "the Mohist school really deserves it."


    "Risk and opportunity are equal, just like those Hu merchants who come thousands of miles to buy silk. Even if they are full of bones in the desert, they can''t stop them. The difference between Mohism and them is that what they want is wealth, and what Mohism wants is knowledge." Merton said.


    With the rise of Tianzhu numbers, Confucianism has gained Pinyin characters, not to mention Mohism. Today, I have the courage to ask my brother-in-law to give me some advice on my geography. I wonder if there can be a unique foreign school to learn from. "Li Tai said sincerely.


    "Geographical pulse? Does King Wei want to be the first person to eat crabs?"


    "Of course!" Li Tai nodded and admitted without hesitation.


    "So..." before Merton answered, he suddenly felt that the carriage stopped. He immediately knew that the Mohist house had arrived. At that moment, the words changed, "there have been Mohist children returning to the Mohist house to report. Compared with Changle, he has already learned that his Highness the king of Wei is coming. It''s better not to keep Changle waiting."


    "Well, I haven''t seen sister Changle for a long time." Li taiqiang held back his anxiety and said patiently.


    As soon as he entered the Mo mansion, he saw that the pregnant Princess Changle had been waiting outside the hall. Seeing that Li Tai and Merton came together, he couldn''t help smiling and said, "third brother, how can I come to see my sister today?"


    When Li Tai saw Changle, he couldn''t help smiling and saying, "Your Majesty chose the Royal representative to see the discussion of hundreds of families. The prince''s brother''s foot injury is not more than being cultivated. It just involves the third brother''s local chronicles. The father and the emperor chose the third brother to come. It''s not easy to go out of the palace and come to see you."


    Among the children of empress Chang sun, although Li Tai and Li Chengqian have begun to compete, they are very close to Princess Changle. Seeing Li Tai come to visit, Princess Changle is naturally in a great mood.


    "The third brother doesn''t have to worry. My sister goes to the maternity and children''s Hospital for prenatal examination on time, but President Zhang has got the true story of doctor sun. The fetus in my sister''s abdomen is very healthy." Changle said happily.


    Before that, everyone envied that Princess Changle was born noble and was the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. She was loved by thousands of people. Now Princess Changle is even more enviable because she married a good husband. In order to make her wife give birth smoothly, she set up a hospital herself. This is what she loves.


    Li Tai gave Merton a satisfied look. For his kindness to Princess Changle, he didn''t care about calling his brother-in-law.


    "I believe my brother-in-law is not only a good husband, but also a good father. In today''s debate, my brother-in-law publicly proposed to set up a kindergarten for his unborn nephew in advance to let him spend his childhood happily?" Li Tailang said. In order to get Merton''s advice, he picked up good words to help Merton.


    "Kindergarten?" Princess Changle couldn''t help looking at Merton tenderly when she heard Li taixiang''s idea of kindergarten.


    "This is just an idea. I''m afraid our children can''t go to school until it has been implemented in Mojia village for three years," Merton said.


    "My brother-in-law is Hua Ben. Wang naturally trusts me, and brother Mo never misses anything he wants to do, and he has made many tricks. Just now, brother Wang wanted my brother-in-law to give me some advice on the local chronicles?" Li Tai said again.


    When Merton heard Li Tai mention it again, he was helpless and knew that he could not avoid it this time.


    "In fact, the opportunity of geography is not outside the territory, but in the Tang Dynasty and around us." Merton solemnly said.


    "Right next to me." Li Tai couldn''t help but look around subconsciously.


    Merton was neither funny nor funny. What he said was beside him. Naturally, it was an exaggeration.


    "I wonder how his royal highness Wei measured geography on weekdays?" Merton asked.


    "It''s natural to send people to investigate and measure in person," Li Taili said of course.


    "That is to say, except those who measure in person can see xiongshan mountains and rivers, but others can''t see them?" Merton shook his head.


    "This..." Li Tai vaguely grasped something, but he always felt a layer of fog blocking it.


    "But one of our hundreds can make people who have never seen the mountains feel like they are on the scene," Merton said again.


    "What my husband said is a poet. Some famous works often make people feel like they are on the scene and have endless aftertaste." Changle said in his heart.


    Merton shook his head and said, "although some famous works are unforgettable, such works are very few. How can they cover the geography of the world?"


    "Painter!" suddenly Li Tai came out with a flash of inspiration.

 Chapter 915

    "Yes!" Princess Changle suddenly realized that only painters can make the world famous as if they were on the scene.


    Li Tai nodded and took a meaningful look at Merton. Everyone in the world knows that mojiazi is the pioneer of new painting, and focuses on realism. The picture is lifelike.


    "No, although Mo''s paintings can be realistic, they are difficult to print, and can''t let more people see famous mountains and rivers." Merton shook his head and denied.


    "Is that landscape painting?" Li Tai thought about it and soon denied himself. Most landscape paintings have green mountains, green waters, fishermen''s boats and extraordinary artistic conception, but the pattern is too small to reflect the mountain and river geography of the Tang Dynasty.


    "How should I draw?" Princess Changle said urgently.


    Merton laughed and said, "my lady is also a master of painting. I don''t know if I can draw an 800 Zhang mountain."


    "Eight hundred feet of mountains and rivers." Princess Changle looked at each other and said that she still had no problem painting a mountain. The problem was that if she wanted to paint an eight hundred feet of mountain, it would be impossible to use an eight hundred feet of paper, and it would take a long time to paint it!


    "My brother-in-law, I don''t think it''s a trick on the king!" Li Tai''s eyes were not good.


    Merton laughed loudly and said, "painting everything in the world in a square inch is the true meaning of the painter. All along, whether ink painting or the emerging new painting skills, they are entangled in small places, and no one cares about the overall situation. I went on an expedition with the army before, and I was able to see the military map. Then I came up with a new painting method."


    Merton waved his hand, took out a piece of rice paper, picked up the brush, immediately brushed on the rice paper and talked about it. Suddenly, the outline of a mountain appeared on the rice paper.


    "This is what you call 800 Zhang mountains and rivers." Princess Changle looked angrily at the eight irregular circles on the drawing.


    Not only did Princess Changle''s eyes look bad, but even Li Tai felt like he was being played a monkey. He looked forward to the opportunity to revitalize the geographical chain. Merton even drew eight circles for him, and it was ugly


    When Merton saw that they were about to explode, it seemed as if he suddenly realized: "I forgot to mark the height for my husband."


    After that, immediately mark the eight circles with 100 Zhang and 200 Zhang respectively, and then omit the other circles directly and mark the last circle with 800 Zhang.


    "This is the 800 foot high mountain!" Princess Changle felt that she had fed the dog by practicing painting for many years.


    Merton nodded boldly: "however, this line is called contour line, which is specially used to mark the height of mountains and rivers. The height between each two lines is 100 feet. A total of eight circles are naturally 800 feet."


    Li Tai and Princess Changle were speechless and looked at Merton helplessly.


    Moreover, you see, this contour line bends downward, the same plane is higher than other places, this is a ridge, this contour line bends upward, and the same plane is lower than both sides, which is a valley. " Merton explained patiently.


    Brother and sister are both experts in painting. They soon understood what Merton meant. Then they realized that Merton didn''t draw indiscriminately. He looked like a real and reasonable look.


    "In general, springs gather in valleys to form streams..." after saying that, Merton drew a winding line in the valley as a river.


    "With the flood in the lower reaches of the river, an alluvial fan plain will be formed at the foot of the mountain..."


    Therefore, an alluvial fan plain appeared on the rice paper. At the moment, Li Tai was dignified and focused on Merton''s strokes, afraid of any negligence.


    "People go high, water flows low, streams flow to a basin, form a lake, and finally converge into a river and flow to the sea..."


    With Merton''s stroke by stroke, a minimalist but inclusive topographic map appeared in front of them, mountains, valleys, rivers, flat land


    "It''s amazing, uncanny!" at the moment, Li Tai was no longer dissatisfied. Merton''s painting skills completely convinced him.


    "The biggest advantage of this painting is that it allows people to intuitively explore the terrain of a place, and it is easy to print. It is just suitable for a geographical pulse."


    Li Tai nodded deeply. A geographical pulse often needs a lot of words to describe. Where there is a topographic map is straightforward. A topographic map greatly simplifies the process of learning geography and is no longer so boring. Once the local chronicles and topographic maps are published in the world, it will certainly make the geographical pulse shine.


    Merton nodded and said, "now the geography is in the ascendant. If your Highness the king of Wei can draw the mountain geography of the world, measure the mountains, the length of rivers, the area of plains and lakes, the climate and customs of the north and south, over time, you will not be able to become a new hundred families."


    Li Tai suddenly breathed quickly and his face flushed. At the thought of becoming a hundred families, even if it was a thousand years late, it would be a great honor! This is an irresistible temptation for Li Tai, who has always been very keen on literary names.


    "Of course, this is a long-term project. I''m afraid it''s difficult to write a book without decades, and it costs so much energy and money. Sometimes it''s not a good thing to have such a big title." Merton pointed out.


    Li Tainai is a talented and intelligent person. In a moment, he understood the implied meaning of Merton. He is the prince. He is inextricably connected with the throne. Sometimes he can''t even hide. If he makes his own theory, he will certainly put all his efforts on the geographical vein, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve.


    You can''t have both fish and bear''s paw. I''m afraid he can only choose one theory and the throne. If he is too greedy, I''m afraid he can only lose both human and financial resources in the end.


    Li Tai did not immediately make a choice, but cleverly changed the topic. Of course, their topic was no longer relaxed. After a while, he got up and said goodbye to Merton and Princess Changle.


    Looking at Li Taiyuan''s back, Princess Changle sighed in her heart. She was also an intelligent person. Naturally, she understood the meaning of Merton and Li Tai''s words.


    "Born in the royal family, sometimes you can''t choose?" Princess Changle sighed in her heart. He saw with his own eyes that the two brothers were close when they were young, and now they are gradually getting along.


    "Both the crown prince and the king of Wei are your relatives. Now your husband has found a way to become a family for the king of Wei. His future achievements are not inferior to that position? How to choose depends on him." Merton solemnly said.


    "So you support big brother?" Princess Changle asked with a beautiful face on her side.


    Merton shook his head and said, "we''ve never stood in line for the throne. The reason why I mention the king of Wei is that if the king of Wei ascends the throne, it''s not like taking the road of Xuanwu Gate again. I''m afraid his majesty doesn''t want to see it. If the two compete, you will be the most sad one. Being a husband for three years is a person of a hundred families. Naturally, I hope to have another like-minded generation."


    "Thank you, my husband!" Princess Changle was immediately moved and nestled in Merton''s arms.


    Merton embraces Princess Changle, but he can''t help worrying. What he worries most now is that Li Tai takes his own achievements as a chip to ascend the throne.

 Chapter 916

    "Fish is what I want, and bear''s paw is what I want; I can''t have both. It''s also who gives up fish and takes bear''s paw." on the return carriage, Li Tai holds the book Mencius in his hand and keeps staring at the chapter of Mencius. Suing chapters and sentences, but his heart is very entangled.


    "The throne and throne of hundreds of scholars! Naturally, the throne is a fish, and the throne is a bear''s paw. As long as a normal person, he will naturally choose a bear''s paw." Li Tai unconsciously biased towards the throne.


    "Those who give up the fish and take the bear''s paw, those who give up the fish and take the bear''s paw..." the balance in Li Tai''s heart slowly tilted, but suddenly his eyes flashed and he was attracted by the next sentence.


    "Life is what I want, and righteousness is what I want; we can''t have both. It''s who gives up life and takes righteousness." Li Tai suddenly sobered up, and the greed caused by the throne immediately disappeared.


    "If I fight for the throne, I''m afraid the brotherhood and father son friendship will never be with me again." Li Tai couldn''t help but feel a trace of pain on his face.


    "The throne of a hundred sons, the throne, the brotherhood, the father son friendship." these suddenly filled Li Tai''s chest and constantly entangled in his heart.


    "Your Highness King Wei! The palace has arrived!"


    Suddenly, the bodyguard reminded Li Tai, which woke him up from his nightmare. Li Tai rubbed his eyes tired and stepped down the horse Lane: "where is the father emperor? The king still needs to report to the father emperor about the hundred suggestions."


    The bodyguard replied, "I inform your Highness the king of Wei that the prince''s foot injury has healed today. The doctor opened the plaster today. Your majesty and the queen have rushed to the east palace."


    Li Tai''s eyes flashed and said, "brother, the foot injury has healed. How can I be absent from such a great event? Let''s go to the east palace."


    Li Tai waved his big hand and the carriage continued to rush to the east palace. When he saw Li Shimin and empress Chang sun waiting outside, a group of doctors were busy in the east palace hall.


    "Father, Queen Mother!" Li Tai said respectfully.


    "It''s the green Sparrow!" when empress Chang sun saw Li Tai coming, she softened her face and asked Li Tai to come near.


    When Li Shimin saw his beloved son, he also showed a trace of love.


    "How''s big brother?" Li Tai couldn''t help asking.


    "Don''t worry, your Highness the king of Wei. The prince''s leg bones have been completely connected. He hasn''t been able to work hard recently. He must slowly recover and train. In a few months, he will be like a normal person." old Hua couldn''t help saying. Behind him, Mo Wu pushed Li Chengqian out of the hall.


    "That''s great!" Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were not happy. They wanted to say thank God, but they saw the doctors stifle this sentence in front of them.


    "Thank you for your concern. I feel good for my brother." Li Chengqian recovered from his leg and was in a good mood. His expression when talking to Li Tai was a little softer.


    Li Tai was also moved and said, "it''s all my little brother''s fault. If the little brother didn''t have to ride a horse, the big brother wouldn''t have broken his leg if he didn''t want to save me."


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "at that time, you were still young. My father and mother entrusted you to me. How can I bear to see you hurt? Besides, haven''t I recovered?"


    Li Tai couldn''t help choking. Of course, he knew that Li Chengqian said it was easy. However, he was actually under the pressure of leg injury. His behavior had become a little perverse in the past few years. He didn''t get better until he met Merton and improved his shoes to make him walk freely.


    "Well, today is a great day for your brother to recover from his leg injury. Don''t mention those sad things." Li Shimin waved his hand. Seeing that Li Chengqian recovered from his leg injury, Li Shimin was glad that his previous decision to vigorously support doctors was so correct.


    "Come here and reward the doctors." empress Chang sun was overjoyed and generous when she saw her son''s recovery. Then a group of eunuchs came with the reward. Judging by its weight, she knew it was valuable.


    Old Hua quickly refused: "wait a minute, empress. Doctors never accept red envelopes or rewards. They just need to pay normal medical expenses. This is the bottom line of doctors. I hope your majesty will not be embarrassed!"


    The doctor''s red envelope is the most strict bottom line. Hua Lao is one of the leaders of the doctor. Naturally, he should take the lead in adhering to this bottom line, and impolitely handed Li Shimin a list of medical expenses.


    "Thirty six passes!" Li Shimin looked at the list of medical expenses and couldn''t help laughing and crying. The Queen''s reward was worth more than the thirty-six passes.


    "I admire the integrity of doctors. In that case, I will allocate another support fund to doctors to solve more difficult and serious problems and benefit the people all over the world!" Li Shimin said.


    "Thank you, your majesty! The doctor is ashamed of it." old Hua is just as kind as a runner. He resolutely refuses to collect red envelopes for individuals. However, he will fight for nothing for the overall development of the doctor.


    As the doctors left one after another, the East Palace suddenly became a scene of laughter. The prince''s feet healed. This was a major event in the whole palace. Soon, people from the back palace came to congratulate him.


    Among the laughter, Li Shimin and Li Tai took the lead in leaving. Naturally, Li Chengqian noticed it for the first time. If he had recovered from his footprints, his sensitive thoughts would have disappeared long ago. As long as he became a normal and healthy prince, his position would be as stable as Mount Tai.


    "Among the hundred schools of discussion on the return of the father and the emperor, Confucianism has a monopoly of 60%, and the other 100 schools have a total of 40%." Li taixun reported in the Tai Chi hall.


    Li Shimin frowned, puzzled and said, "so, it''s one book shared by other hundred schools, and one book is exclusive to mathematics."


    Li Tai nodded and said, "it''s true, but mathematics, which is a series of mathematics, is obscure and difficult to understand, and it doesn''t fit in with other hundred schools. I''m afraid it''s difficult to merge together."


    Only Li Shimin''s face is strange. As an emperor, he sensitively feels that a single book of arithmetic must be extraordinary. However, the single book of arithmetic is indeed unique. Its theory is absolutely rational. Contrary to the idea of educating the world and promoting moral education by other hundred theories, it is also reasonable to monopolize one book. Moreover, arithmetic is extremely useful and indispensable in the daily life of the people, This is also the foundation of the prosperity of mathematics.


    "In addition, doctors are preparing to build a women''s school to train female medical apprentices. Merton proposed to build a kindergarten, which was excluded by Confucianism, accounting for less share,......" Li Tai described in detail the process of the hundred house proposal one by one.


    "Kindergarten?" Li Shimin doesn''t care about the proportion of Chinese allocated by 100 schools, but is very interested in the kindergarten built by Merton.


    Li Tai nodded and said, "it is said that it is to prepare for the unborn child in Changle''s belly. If he wants to go to school at the age of three, he can also enjoy a happy childhood."


    "He has a heart!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. Although he was dissatisfied with Merton, he had to admit that Merton had nothing to say about Princess Changle. Even his father couldn''t pick out the thorn.


    "And this time, children''s" including local chronicles "will also include selected passages into Chinese, which will enable students all over the world to appreciate the vast territory and resources of the Tang Dynasty,......" Li Tai said with a trace of pride on his face.


    "You did well this time, but what reward do you want?" Li Shimin looked at his most beloved son and showed a knowing smile.


    Li Tai pondered for a moment, suddenly clenched his teeth and said, "the child doesn''t want a reward. He just wants to ask his father to let the child out of the palace."


    Li Shimin was surprised and asked, "Oh! Do you want to open a house or a fief!"


    Li Tai shook his head and said, "I don''t want to open a house or a fief."


    "Then what do you want?" Li Shimin didn''t understand.


    "I want to learn and improve my geography. I personally measure the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty and compile them into a book." a trace of God appeared on Li Tai''s face.


    "Do you want to unify the geography and become a hundred families?" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai strangely, as if he couldn''t understand his child. He just asked him to participate in a hundred families meeting. Who could have thought that he wanted to be a hundred families after he came back.


    After Li Tai said his ambition, he said in a loud voice: "yes, the reputation of geography is not obvious. At the same time, there are countless unknown places in the world that have not been explored. This will be a knowledge with broad prospects and unlimited achievements in the future."


    "Learning is very hard, not to mention traveling all over the north and south of the Tang Dynasty and the Jedi outside the Tang Dynasty. You must have suffered all the hardships. Are you ready?" Li Shimin asked.


    "My child has been prepared long ago. Heaven has a great responsibility for me. I will work hard, starve my body and bones. I am not afraid of hardship, but just focus on learning." Li Tai said firmly.


    Li Shimin saw that Li Tai was determined and had a feeling that ordinary and clever children suddenly broke away from their control. He couldn''t help but be ashamed and angry and said, "do you know what you''re doing?"


    Li Tai held his head high and said stubbornly, "I naturally know that once I revive my geographical pulse, I will be far away from Chang''an, and the throne will never be with me."


    Li Shimin looked shocked and looked at the outspoken Li Tai in shock.


    Li Tai said with grief and indignation: "Although I said I was the legitimate son, there was a eldest brother as the crown prince. Before that, the eldest brother''s footprints had not healed. My father and Emperor regarded me as an alternative crown prince. For the sake of the Tang Dynasty, I Li Tai was naturally willing. Now my eldest brother has recovered from foot disease and is the only candidate for the crown prince. If I fight again, wouldn''t it be a repeat of the Xuanwu sect? Instead, I''d better be addicted to learning In this way, the brotherhood will be fulfilled without doing nothing for a lifetime. "


    "You......" Li Shimin could not help getting angry, but he was speechless. After all, there was only one throne. He could not pass it on to two people at the same time.


    "It''s a good story that if a child can succeed in the future, and his eldest brother becomes a Ming king," Li Tai said with deep admiration.


    Li Shimin can''t help but be silent. I have to say that what Li Tai said is not unreasonable. If Li Tai is among the hundreds of families, his status is not worse than that of the throne. No matter which parents are happy to see him become, even the royal family is no exception.


    "I hope you don''t regret today''s decision!" Li Shimin said again.


    Li Tai was overjoyed and said again: "thank you for your father''s success! My child has traveled all over the land of the Tang Dynasty in the future and failed to be filial to his father in time. Please be more considerate."


    Li Shimin didn''t speak, but waved helplessly and motioned Li Tai to step down.


    "Farewell, boy!" Li Tai bowed back.


    After Li Tai''s figure disappeared, Li Shimin waved his hand, and pound quietly appeared behind Li Shimin.


    "Go and check the whereabouts of the Green Finch today." Li Shimin said gnashing his teeth. He didn''t believe that his best son had suddenly changed so much that something he didn''t know had happened.


    Soon pound came back and said in a low voice, "after his Highness the king of Wei finished the hundred house discussion, he accompanied mohou to see off Kong huisuo, the descendant of the Kong family, to liaozhou, and presented Kong huisuo''s foreign Pinyin. Then the two returned to the mohou house to see the long princess. During this period, mohou presented his Highness the method of drawing topographic maps."


    "The method of Drawing Topographic Maps!" Li Shimin suddenly realized that no wonder Li Tai is so confident that he can revitalize the geographical vein and rank among the hundreds of scholars in the future.


    However, at the thought that his most beloved son was about to leave his side, Li Shimin couldn''t help hating, gnashing his teeth and saying, "Mexican family!"

 Chapter 917

    "Delicious, really delicious!" in the ink house, Merton feasted on a crab.


    Since the Mohists made public their live fish ink technology and ice making method, it can be said that it is a revolutionary change for the fishery. Businessmen pursuing wealth sent delicious fish from all over the world to Chang''an City, not to mention crabs. Even the seafood market in the sea can appear in the East and West markets of Chang''an city. Of course, its price is also very expensive.


    In particular, Merton''s "Confucianism is different from friendship, and Mohism loves the world. Confucianism is prepared for years and respects the old and filial piety, while Mohism advocates virtue, Confucianism does not care about production, and Mohism....... The two Confucianism and Mohism have been opposed for thousands of years. However, it is said that mohou has taken the initiative to cooperate with Confucianism to promote homonymy. Isn''t it to raise tigers and sell to the enemy?" Tian Mou scolded.


    "So, Mohist theory is much better than Confucianism, but why is Confucianism still respected in this world?" Merton asked.


    "That''s not Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty and Dong Zhongshu..." Tian Mou said with hatred. Since Confucianism was the only one, Confucianism has been suppressing Mohism. In addition to its own reasons for the decline of Mohism, Confucianism has also made great contributions. In those years, Mohist had been granted Marquis, but Mohist village lived a precarious life according to the old times, and Confucianism is also indispensable.


    Merton sneered: "is it just because Emperor Wu and Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty? Why did the later emperors still respect Confucianism alone? It is because Confucianism does have advantages over Mohist theory."


    "It''s bullshit. How can Confucianism surpass Mohism?" Tian Mou roared at Yandun''s anger, as if the most sacred thing he had always adhered to had been defiled.


    Merton thought for a moment: "At least in this era, Confucianism is more practical than Mohist theory. Confucianism has a wonderful effect on calming the people and educating the people. Although Mohist philosophy is good, how to love the world and how to love the people all over the world. Mohist can help a few people after exhausting all their possessions, let alone love the world all over the world. As for non aggression, if you are free, you can turn to historical books and China Where has been stable for several days for thousands of years? It''s simply a history of war. As for the sameness


    Merton argued one by one, each of which was justified, which made Tian Mou speechless.


    "If you say so, isn''t my Mohist philosophy worthless? That''s why you turned your back on Mohism!" Tian Mou said coldly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "on the contrary, Mo believes that Mohist theory is more advanced than Confucianism, but it is too advanced, so it is difficult to achieve."


    "Brother Mo thinks what can be done to realize the Mohist idea?" Li Yun''s eyes lit up.


    Merton waved his big hand: "When the Xiangfu family builds a bridge over the dangerous places in the world, the world will be unimpeded, and the north-south goods exchange will be unimpeded, and the goods will be exchanged; when the world is unified, the books and words will be the same, and countless foreign varieties will flow into Datang, the people all over the world will no longer have the worry of hunger and cold; when the people in each village are as rich as Mojia village, and every child can enjoy fair education By choosing every one of the hundred schools of thought at will, the Mohist concept will really shine at that time. Only by loving both non aggression and virtue can the concept become popular in China. "


    When Tian Mou and Li Yun heard the speech, their eyes twinkled and their hearts stirred. What Merton said was their lifelong faith.


    "And our Mojia village has been working towards this goal. What have you done in Xiangfu''s vein?" Merton asked.


    Tian Mou felt ashamed. His Xiangfu family had been living in seclusion all the time. If it hadn''t been for the sudden rise of Mojia village, I''m afraid the Xiangfu family would have lived in seclusion all the time until it died.


    "It''s not terrible to recognize the excellence of others. It''s terrible that you can''t recognize yourself. At least at this stage, the status of Confucianism can''t be shaken. Even if the concept of Mohism prevails in the future, Confucianism is also indispensable. Even other hundred theories are equally indispensable. Maybe there will be new theories better than Mohism. If you can''t recognize the status of Confucianism, you will never be right The position of Mohism, the revival of Mohism will be impossible, "Merton scolded.


    Tian Mou was speechless. He had to admit that what Merton said was the truth. The current status of Confucianism is indeed as stable as Mount Tai, which is difficult to shake. The direct confrontation between Mohism and it is no less than hitting a stone with an egg.


    Merton''s words changed: "what''s more, Mo SHENGFEI said that Confucianism pays too much attention to human relations and morality, while Mo household reality. Studying Mohist ink technology for the benefit of all people, Confucianism and Mohism are not antagonistic in essence, but complementary. The three states of Liao people are a pilot of Confucianism and Mohism cooperation. As for the effect, it remains to be seen."


    Tian Mou said, "I''ll wait and see. I hope you don''t help the tyrants."


    For Tian Mou''s dead duck, Merton didn''t take advantage of the victory. After all, this is the honeymoon period of the two veins of the Mohist family, and Tian Mou is the direct descendant of the one vein of the Xiangfu family.


    "When Mo came here today, in addition to sending materials, he also wanted to formally determine the pier location of Weishui bridge." Merton solemnly said.


    The positioning of piers is the basis for the success of a bridge. If it is too short, it takes time and labor. If it is too wide, it will increase the risk of the bridge and easily cause safety accidents. Moreover, the cost of a bridge is expensive, especially the Weishui bridge. Once there is safety responsibility, the loss is astronomical.

 Chapter 918

    Li Yun and Tian Mou looked at each other, and the scene was a little awkward.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton wondered.


    Li Yun said: "there are some differences on the location of piers."


    "Oh!" Merton raised his eyebrows.


    Li Yun stretched out his hand and took Merton to the side of the Weihe River, pointing to the Weihe River where the water level dropped sharply: "brother Mo, please see, the water level of the Weihe River is low in winter, but it still occupies one third of the width of the river. If the pier is selected in the river, four piers need to be built. In this way, although the construction period will be doubled, it will ensure the safety of the bridge."


    Merton nodded. This is indeed a safe method, but if they all choose this safe method, I''m afraid Li Yun won''t be so tangled.


    Sure enough, Li Yun continued: "if you widen the distance between the piers and set the two piers on the beach exposed by the drop of water level, you only need to build two piers. The construction period and construction difficulty will be greatly reduced, but I''m afraid the risk will be doubled due to the increase of the distance between the piers."


    Merton realized that Li Yun was tangled, which was really a difficult problem.


    "I propose to choose the first site and build four piers. Although it takes time and labor, it is very safe. Weishui bridge is the best opportunity for the revival of Xiangfu''s line, and there must be no mistakes." Tian Mou firmly said. In his opinion, since it is from the imperial court and Mojia village, Xiangfu''s line only needs to complete the task and build Weishui bridge, Why take the risk to build a bridge with two piers.


    "Brother Li, what about you?" Merton turned his head and asked.


    Li Yun gritted his teeth and said, "I''m in favor of the second scheme. This is the first show of Xiangfu''s family. It''s going to show the amazing Tang Dynasty. How can our Mohists and ordinary craftsmen be afraid of hands and feet for security? Moreover, the second scheme seems to be risky, but it is feasible in theory."


    "It''s nonsense! You bet on the future of Xiangfu''s family. If you fail, the consequences will be unimaginable." Tian Mou angrily scolded.


    Li Yun gritted his teeth and said, "as brother Mo said, although the first person to eat crabs takes great risks, he can also get unimaginable gains."


    "The first person to eat crabs!" Merton couldn''t help smiling bitterly. This sentence had such a wide influence that even Li Yun was deeply affected by it.


    Tian Mou just wanted to refute, but found that this sentence was the speech of Mo Sheng in Mo Zi''s secret book, which could not refute Tian Mou, who had always regarded the Mo Sutra as the Holy Scripture.


    "No, absolutely not. Not only I won''t agree, but even Xiangfu''s pulse won''t agree." Tian Mou couldn''t argue with Li Yun and directly pressed people with the force.


    Li Yun couldn''t help venting his anger when he heard the speech. In the final analysis, he had a low seniority in the Xiangfu family. Tian Mou took the lead in opposing his plan. Other children of the Xiangfu family also joined in pursuit of stability. Li Yun suddenly became weak in the Xiangfu family.


    Seeing this, Merton couldn''t help but say, "I don''t know who was appointed by the imperial court to supervise the construction of the Weishui bridge?"


    As soon as Li Yun''s eyes lit up, he couldn''t help shouting, "it''s me!"


    Although Tian Mou was highly respected, after all, Li Yun had a glorious precedent for building Qujiang arch bridge. After Li Chun of Zhaozhou Bridge, he entrusted Li Yun with the task of supervising the construction of Weishui bridge.


    Merton could not deny that: "since you are the person who majored in the Weishui bridge, the final decision is naturally up to you. I think the construction of Zhaozhou Bridge by Li Chun was also questioned. If he was timid in choosing, I''m afraid there would be no miracle of Zhaozhou Bridge in the world."


    Li Yun''s heart couldn''t help but suddenly brighten up and said firmly: "Li has decided to take the second plan."


    "You...!" Tian Mou was so angry that he was defeated. In his opinion, Li Yun had been in contact with the Mohist School for a long time, and even some rebellious scriptures had left the way.


    "Please also ask Tian shuchengquan," Li Yun said solemnly.


    Seeing this, Tian Mou said, "it seems that I''m old and can''t keep up with the times."


    "Uncle Tian!" Li Yun said with some trepidation.


    Li Yun waved his hand and said, "I know you want to reproduce the miracle of your grandfather Li Chun. I hope you can remember that there is a series of honor and disgrace behind you."


    "Remember, nephew." Li Yun said solemnly.


    "I won''t bother about the Weishui bridge any more. I''ll return to Xiangfu''s vein tomorrow." Tian Mou said decisively.


    "Wait a minute!" Murton said suddenly.


    "What advice does Mo Hou give?" Tian Mou looked at Merton and said.


    "There is a position in Mojia village that Mr. Tian must be interested in." Merton said meaningfully.


    "Mohou also wants to attract Tian?" Tian Mou said with a smile. There are many contradictions between the two veins. How can he betray Xiangfu''s vein and invest in Mojia village.


    Even Li Yun looked at Merton suspiciously. Merton just supported himself to drive Tian Mou away and began to solicit in the twinkling of an eye. It''s a coincidence.


    "It''s not solicitation but employment. Master Li, the former editor in chief of Mohist Ink magazine, has asked to resign many times. The editor in chief of today''s Ink magazine is waiting. I don''t know if Mr. Tian is interested." Merton solemnly said.


    After Mr. Li returned to Confucianism, it was naturally inconvenient to serve as the chief editor of the Confucian journal. Merton thought about it. I''m afraid only Tian Mou is the most suitable.


    "Editor in chief of Ink magazine!" Tian Mou couldn''t help but feel his heart beating. Xiangfu lived in seclusion for many years. He really began to understand that there was still an ink magazine outside. He inadvertently fell into his hands. He never thought that one day he would advocate Ink magazine.


    "I don''t know how much authority I have." Tian Mou said a little.


    "It''s all up to you to decide the ink print, but the ink print report must be realistic, which is the bottom line," Merton Lang said.


    "Even Mojia village can report!" Tian Mou asked.


    Merton naturally said, "in addition to the secret skills of the Mohist school, the Mohist school has to report."


    "OK, I''ll take over the chief editor." Tian Mou decided.


    "OK, then Mo is waiting for you." Merton Lang said. Seeing that it''s getting late, he was ready to get up and leave.


    Li Yun hurriedly got up to send him off and said, "thank you, brother Mo, for your advice, otherwise Li must be timid."


    Merton said, "although I support you, the risk is still that the risk will not be reduced by half. I think you need someone to reduce the risk for you."


    "Who is this expert?" Li Yun asked solemnly.


    "You should have heard of this person, Zu Mingjun, the founder of parabola after learning mathematics. I''m afraid he''s the only one who can help you most." Merton said


    "It was him!" Li Yun suddenly realized. The reflection of the suspension bridge is a parabola. I''m afraid only this person can be the most proficient in it,


    "Mojia village and Xiangfu have been in conflict for thousands of years. Why do you help so." Li Yun thought for a moment and finally asked.


    "Although the two veins have different ideas, they belong to Mohist school. Now Mohist school is waiting for prosperity. Every Mohist power is valuable. I am not helping Xiangfu''s vein, but for Mohist school." Merton Zhuang said seriously.


    Seeing Merton''s solemn expression, Li Yun immediately knew how much Xiangfu''s misunderstanding of Merton was. No matter what the Mohists did, it was difficult to understand, but all his starting points were for the Mohists.


    "For Mohism!"


    Looking back at Merton''s leaving, he couldn''t help feeling excited. Looking back at the huge construction site behind him, he firmly believed that once the miraculous bridge in his mind was completed, the reputation of the Mohist school would be heard throughout the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 919

    The west wind roared and the cold winter came. With a heavy snow general, all things dormant, like dormant hundreds of families, are silently waiting for the arrival of spring and the period of revival.


    On the rammed earth official road in liaozhou, Southwest China, a huge motorcade is driving slowly against the cold wind. Although the temperature in Liaoren three states is not low, the cold air is everywhere, which makes people sweat and stab to the bone.


    "Shouldn''t it be warm in the south? Why is it so cold?" Kong huisuo hugged his hands and shook his teeth on the cableway.


    One side of Mo Da also trembled with his legs and said, "Master Kong doesn''t know. Most of us are wearing cotton clothes in the north, and there are stoves and heating in the house. When we enter the house, we don''t feel the cold at all. You see, although the temperature in liaozhou is not low, the air is very wet and cold, and most of its houses are wooden houses, so we don''t keep warm at all."


    The purpose of this trip to liaozhou is to make liaozhou rich, and Mo University, which has always controlled the experimental field of Mohism, is the most suitable candidate.


    "Then why are the local staff so unafraid of the cold?" Kong huisuo pointed to the curious team of staff children. Even in such a cold day, the staff children are still dressed in single clothes, but still move freely.


    Seeing Kong huisuo''s eyes, the mother of the Liao child pulled the child back and stared warily at the huge Han team. The rebellion in the three states of Liao people has just been put down, and the previous hatred is not so easy to forget.


    Mo Da thought about it and said, "there is a little story circulating in the Mojia village that may confuse Master Kong. It is said that a landlord loved to play tricks on people. Once on a snowy day, a beggar with thin clothes and trembling came to the landlord''s house to beg. Seeing this, the landlord couldn''t help teasing, so he said: "As long as you can stand at my door all night and still be there the next day, I''ll give you half of my possessions."


    The beggar looked at the snowy weather and listened to the hungry voice in his stomach. He gritted his teeth and agreed. Soon one night later, when the landlord opened the door again, he saw that the beggar was still at his door. Although he was shivering with cold, he was still alive. The landlord had no choice but to give half of his family to the beggar. The former beggar became a rich man overnight. "


    "The landlord really deserved it. In the end, he moved a stone and hit himself in the foot!" Kong huisuo was relieved.


    Mo Da nodded and said, "the landlord is naturally unwilling to lose half of his property in vain. A year later, in the cold winter and December, the landlord had an idea and thought of a plan, so he found the old beggar. As long as you stand in the snow for another night, I will give you the other half of my property. If you can''t support it, give me back half of my property."


    When the beggar heard this, he was overjoyed. Isn''t this pie falling from the sky? Last year, he won half of the landlord''s property. This time, he didn''t easily take back the other half. At present, he nodded and agreed without hesitation. However, when he took off his white fur clothes, took off his warm fur hat and put on his former beggar clothes, he found that this winter was particularly cold, although the beggar did everything He tried to keep warm, but before midnight, the beggar could no longer stand the cold, so he had to return half of his property to the landlord. "


    Kong huisuo was silent for a moment and said, "from thrift to extravagance, from extravagance to thrift, one year''s rich life has completely made beggars lose their physique to resist the cold, just as we have lived in the north for a long time and enjoyed the warmth of stove fire and heating, but we can''t stand this cold wind."


    Mo Da said with a wry smile: "what''s more sad is that I was like a beggar four years ago. I was naked. However, in the face of the cold winter, I was still calm in my thin clothes. However, who could have thought that I had only had a good life for four years. Now Mo is wearing thick clothes and even feels the cold wind to the bone."


    The two men looked at the thin children and Liao people on both sides, and then looked at the thick clothes they were tightly wrapped. They couldn''t help feeling.


    Kong Hui Suolang said: "it is not the wish of the people to spend the cold winter naked, but a helpless move. The purpose of our coming today is to let the Liao people in these three states wear thick clothes in winter, rather than fight hard with a thin body, accept the Enlightenment of saints in a warm house, rather than running around in the cold wind all day to make a living."


    Mo Da nodded deeply. Since Mojia village can live a good life, other villages can follow suit.


    Moreover, once the people of the three prefectures of liaomin are put on warm cotton padded clothes and asked to take them off, it is impossible. They can only devote themselves to the Tang Dynasty.


    Soon, the team of Mohists and Confucians came to Yazhou, the center of the three Liao states. Niu JINDA, who was responsible for monitoring the Liao people, was stationed in Yazhou.


    Although Yazhou is called the state, it is at the same level as the county of the Tang Dynasty. There is only a dilapidated city wall covered with knife wounds and arrow holes, which is obviously a trace left by the last war.


    "See general Niu!" Kong huisuo and Mo Datong are bowing their hands.


    The Confucian and Mohist families arrived in liaozhou and came to visit Niu JINDA at the first time. The Confucian and Mohist families want to open up a situation in the three Liao states. It is impossible without the support of Niu JINDA.


    "It''s the great sages of the Confucian and Mohist families who are coming, but I''m looking forward to it!" Niu jindalang said. He is responsible for suppressing liaozhou. The situation here is unstable and there are many contradictions between the Liao people and the Han people. If he really educates the Liao people as envisaged by the Confucian and Mohist families, he can finally get rid of this bitter place and transfer back to Chang''an city.


    "General Niu flattered me. Xiaosheng is ashamed of it." Kong huisuo said politely. Although Moda and Kong huisuo pass through, there is no good reputation of Kong huisuo after the Kong family. Kong huisuo is the leader of this trip.


    "Where! Where! Master Kong is the successor of Master Kong and inherits the great wish of Master Kong to educate all the people. Although Niu says that he is a rude man and despises the sour Confucian who is full of morality, he admires Master Kong''s practical people." Niu JINDA said without blocking.


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help smiling bitterly, so he had to bow his hands and say, "general Niu will do everything."


    Niu JINDA said boldly, "don''t worry. If there are any difficulties, just open your mouth and say that Lao Tzu''s 10000 troops are not vegetarian."


    Kong huisuo quickly shook his head and said, "general Niu, this is not the time to use force, otherwise the imperial court will not send us."


    Niu JINDA looked at Kong huisuo meaningfully and said, "then you have to suffer. The Liao people here are not so friendly to the Han people!"


    At first, Kong huisuo didn''t know what Niu JINDA meant. Only when he began to educate the people did he understand what Niu JINDA meant by suffering.

 Chapter 920

    Yazhou new school was transformed from the residence of the former chieftain. It covers a very wide area. Although it is not gorgeous, it is already the best residence in Yazhou.


    Since Yazhou was changed to land and returned to the stream, the residence has been empty. When Confucianism came, it was changed into a school.


    However, now such a big school is completely empty. Only a group of lonely teachers are in a dejected daze.


    "My Lord, those bureaucrats are stubborn at all, and their feet are worn out. They come to the door one by one to let the bureaucrats enter school, but none of them are willing to enter school." a Confucian student, Liu Heng, from Chang''an, came to liaozhou bravely after hearing about the Confucian homonymy plan.


    But who would have thought that when they came to liaozhou from Chang''an City in high spirits, they wanted to do something, but they were humiliated as soon as they arrived here, which made them proud how to accept it.


    Kong Yingda is also helpless. There are many contradictions between Han and Liao just settled here. Coupled with the local isolation and the ignorance of the people, Kong Sheng''s reputation doesn''t work here at all. Even the Liao people extremely reject them, even if they are kind-hearted.


    Kong huisuo thought for a moment and said, "did you say that in the first semester, you don''t accept bound courses and admission is free?"


    Liu Heng said with a wry smile, "I''ve said it, but it''s still useless. The Liao people don''t believe me at all."


    "What''s the progress of Mohism?" Kong huisuo asked Mo Da helplessly.


    "The Mohist school has made good progress. There is plenty of water in Yazhou, and the local people raise more chickens, ducks and geese. The Mohist school has purchased a large number of eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs in various Liao people''s villages in advance. Now it has hatched very young ducks and geese, which are very popular among the Liao people. In less than a year, there must be flocks of chickens, ducks and geese here. At that time, the Mohist school will buy a large number of them and sell them to Chang''an Luoyang The life of the Liao people will be greatly improved after one more year, "said Mo Da confidently.


    "If this is successful, the Mohist school should take the lead." Kong huisuo was relieved. In this way, the improvement of the life of the Liao people will certainly make a great difference to the Han people, and his resistance will be much less.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s nothing. It''s just the first step of the Mohist book of getting rich."


    "Getting rich classic!" Kong huisuo said in surprise.


    Mo Da Hao Ran said, "this is a summary of our young master Du''s words. Every sentence is the experience of getting rich in Mojia village."


    "What does the" getting rich Sutra "have?" Kong huisuo said very strangely.


    "If you want to be rich, build roads first..."


    "First solve the problem of food and clothing and embark on a well-off society......"


    "No agriculture, no industry, no wealth............"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Mo Da recited Merton''s words back and forth.


    "As Mr. Mo said, what should we do?" Kong huisuo asked humbly.


    "Of course, it''s the second step. If you want to be rich, build roads first. When I came here, I saw how bad the roads here are. The Mohists have prepared to build brick kilns to burn bricks and recruit Liao people to build roads. Otherwise, even if there are gold and silver mines in the three Liao States, they can''t be transported out."


    "We only have Wanguan''s money. I''m afraid we can''t build many roads!" Kong huisuo worried.


    Mo Da shook his head and said, "no, the price and labor of Liao state are not as good as Chang''an City, and we only need to build a brick road in and out of two lanes first, which won''t cost much!"


    Kong huisuo nodded. Once the brick road was built, many Liao people must have benefited. In addition, the convenient access to the outside world is also conducive to their education.


    Mo Da then said, "the third step is to plant a variety of trees. I went to every Liao people''s village and found that every Liao people''s family here has oranges. This is winter, and Chang''an city is lack of fruits and vegetables. Once these oranges are bought and transported to Chang''an City, they will be very popular."


    "It''s wonderful!" Liu Heng exclaimed. He is from Chang''an city. Of course, he knows how expensive the prices in Chang''an city are, and these oranges can certainly buy a good price.


    "Orange born in Huainan is orange, and orange born in Huaibei is orange. These oranges will certainly have a big market." Kong huisuo nodded again and again.


    "But I''m afraid it will take more than half a month to transport to Chang''an city. I''m afraid these oranges have long been bad." a Confucian shook his head. It was not that no one thought of this business before, but that the good ones were not much worse when transported to Chang''an City, which caused the scarcity and high price of melons and fruits in the north.


    "It''s winter, and the weather is cold, so it''s easy to store melons and fruits. Coupled with the secret skill of Mohist school, there''s no problem in storing melons and fruits for three months," said Mo Da confidently.


    "Three months is enough!" Kong huisuo nodded. Three months is enough to make oranges sell well on both sides of the Yellow River.


    "Selling oranges to Chang''an city must make a lot of profits. The money can be used to build roads and schools to supplement the money misappropriated for road construction." Mo Dalang said.


    "The Mohist School''s experience of getting rich is really extraordinary!" Liu Heng exclaimed. In this way, the Mohist school only needs Wanguan start-up funds to make money and smoothly carry out the education of the three states.


    "According to Mo''s observation, Yazhou has many mountains and is most suitable for growing oranges. It must be the same in the other two states. In addition to the secret skills of Mohist School in cultivating seeds, grafting and transplanting, within three or five years, this place will be full of orange forests and become a rich place. At that time, Master Kong''s enlightenment will spread all over the three Liao states." Mo Da said confidently, He was in charge of the Mohist experimental field, and he was handy for farming.


    "Three or five years?" Kong huisuo couldn''t help but see. Before that, he had no clue, but now, after the analysis of the freshman of Mo University, he suddenly saw the light in front of him. He made great achievements in three or five years, which is in line with Kong huisuo''s expectations.


    "That''s right! Once the Liao people in the three prefectures grow a lot of oranges and how much they can eat locally, I''m afraid they can only profit from selling them to all places in Datang. In this way, once they rebel here, where can their oranges be sold? Let alone Datang, even the Liao people here will not agree to rebel." Mo Da said proudly.


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help but praise Lang and said, "brother Mo is a great talent. I''m not as far away as brother mo."


    This time, Merton did not start, but sent a son of Mohism to take the lead in opening the plight of liaozhou with a so-called "getting rich Sutra", while Confucianism was equally helpless and mediocre.


    "Yes, brother Mo, if brother Mo was responsible for educating the staff, how would he do it?" Kong huisuo couldn''t help but move in his heart, prepared to change his position and try to use Merton''s style to solve the problem of educating the staff.


    "The way of daily use for the people!" Kong Hui''s eyes lit up when Thornton couldn''t help but flash past the thin Liao children along the way.


    "Those children need cotton padded clothes and food. Those bureaucrats are poor and have no time to care about these children, or even can''t afford them..." Kong huisuo had more and more inspiration in his heart. Suddenly, he felt like he was enlightened and couldn''t help laughing.


    "Master Kong, I don''t know why I laugh?" Mo Da didn''t understand.


    Kong huisuo looked at Mo Da Dao: "as far as I know, the Mohist artificial incubation technology will have a heavy flavor food, called hairy eggs. Can I give it to Confucianism?"


    Mo Da looked at Kong Hui''s cableway strangely: "of course, but the amount of these eggs is a little large. I don''t know young Master Kong..."


    Kong huisuo waved his big hand and said, "the more, the better!"


    Mo Da looks at Kong huisuo more strangely. There are not many people who pay attention to taste like Master Kong!


    Kong huisuo ignored Mo Da''s eyes, but looked at Liu Heng and said, "go to liaomin village again immediately."


    Liu Heng suddenly looked bitter. He was very hard-working at the beginning. No one was willing to come to school. I''m afraid it''s the same for another ten times?


    Kong huisuo said confidently, "this time, I tell Liao Min that all children who come to school will not only be free of tuition, but also the school will manage food, but also give each person a warm winter school uniform."


    "Ah!" Liu Heng looked at Kong huisuo puzzled.


    "A gentleman is like righteousness, and a villain is like profit! These bureaucrats don''t know the Enlightenment of saints. I''m afraid they can only be lured by profit." Kong huisuo gritted his teeth.


    "When the Mohist school recruits workers, it gives priority to recruit the children of the clerks who study at home to work. Whoever can speak Mandarin will be promoted as the leader with higher salary. In this way, it can attract a large number of adult clerks to learn Mandarin. In addition, when transporting oranges to Chang''an City this time, more clerks will be selected to follow, so that they can see the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. These clerks are said by word of mouth, It''s much more believable than us, "Kong huisolang said.


    Mo Da looked at Kong huisuo in front of him with a different face, but he clearly saw the young master''s shadow.

 Chapter 921

    "Your Excellency is wise!"


    As Kong huisuo blurted out one practical plan after another, the hearts of the Confucianists suddenly opened up, just like being enlightened. If they proceed according to this, their education plan will certainly be implemented smoothly. The only disadvantage is that it is too expensive.


    However, a group of Confucian scholars looked at Kong huisuo strangely. Naturally, they could also perceive that Kong huisuo had a strong style of Mohism.


    Kong Hui smiled awkwardly and quickly covered up the past and said, "of course, in addition, we have a more important thing to do, that is, I want you to learn Liao language."


    "Learn bureaucratic language!" a group of Confucian scholars couldn''t help but be in an uproar. In their hearts, they came to educate the bureaucratic people and teach them to speak noble and elegant Mandarin, but they didn''t expect to learn harsh and ugly bureaucratic language.


    "But also!" Kong huisuo nodded. "Confucius said: do not do to others what you don''t want. If we want the people to learn to speak official language, how can we not speak official language? Besides, how can we communicate with children and transfer knowledge in teaching? If the teachers and students can''t speak, I''m afraid such friendship between teachers and students is just a castle in the air, let alone learn knowledge."


    A group of Confucian scholars can''t help nodding silently. They are teachers for one day and fathers for life. The friendship between teachers and students is the most stable relationship of Confucianism. If they lose this relationship, it will be impossible for them to educate the staff and people. In this way, they may have to learn the staff language first.


    Kong huisuo said proudly, "but this thing can be done step by step. First, we can learn simple daily communication, and then we can slowly improve in the future. When we can all speak fluent bureaucratic language, it is when we can educate the bureaucratic people."


    "Please obey the master''s orders!" a group of Confucian scholars arched their hands. Fortunately, they are adults, which is not difficult for them.


    "Liu Heng!" Kong huisuo turned his head to Liu Heng and said, "this time, you and Mo University act together. If those Liao people want to work and make money, they should send their children to school. This time, Confucianism and Mo should cooperate sincerely."


    "Yes!" Liu Heng and Mo Da looked at each other solemnly and said in a loud voice.


    In Yazhou County, a rumor soon spread among the Liao people that the brick kiln of the Han people was about to recruit workers, with three Wen per person per day, and the one in charge of recruitment was the black ink big who sold chicken, duck and goose cubs.


    Recently, black ink university has been the life of Yazhou. Its technology of artificially incubating chickens, ducks and geese is amazing, and it is very popular everywhere.


    The salary of three Wen a day in Chang''an city can be said to be hard-earned money. However, in liaozhou, three Wen a day and 90 yuan a month are absolutely high wages, which can be said to be an irresistible temptation for the Liao people struggling with the hunger line.


    "Mr. Mo Da, these behind me are the first-class young men of the Liao stronghold. Please raise your hand and take them!" the leader of the Liao stronghold pleaded in extremely harsh Chinese.


    Before that, Mexican university has successfully entered the interior of Liaozhai with artificial incubation technology, which has won the trust of the people of Liaozhai. After the news that Mexico University was preparing to recruit workers spread, they scrambled to come to work.


    Mo Da looked at Liu Heng and Lang said, "in addition to being strong and hard-working, there is another condition that the boys at home must enter school."


    "Going to school?" a group of Liao people couldn''t help looking at Liu Heng. Some time ago, Liu Heng publicized that every village should let children go to school. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him. After all, they don''t believe in the Han people at all. Isn''t it a sheep into a tiger''s mouth to send their children to the Han people?


    Seeing this, Liu Heng immediately got up and said in his newly learned Liao language, "every child has a winter coat and a meal at noon."


    "Eat and be full!" Liu Heng thought and finally added.


    "All dressed in winter clothes, take care of your lunch!" suddenly, all the Liao people were in an uproar. The Liao people were hostile to the Han people. On the one hand, it was the hatred of the previous war between the two sides, on the other hand, the Liao people were poor. Although the Han people were not all rich, food and clothing were not a problem, and they had a sense of hating the rich.


    When Liao min heard that as long as the Han people let their children go to school, they can give them warm winter clothes like the Han people, and have enough food at noon, which is a great temptation. You know, there are many children in some families, and sometimes they can''t afford it at all. If they can have enough food in the school, wouldn''t it be equivalent to the school raising children for them? How much food can be saved every year.


    "Is there such a good thing in the world?"


    "Will the Han people be so kind?"


    However, they are still hesitant because of their vigilance towards the Han people for a long time. Despite such good conditions, no one is willing to let children go to school.


    Seeing this, Mo Da couldn''t help looking aside and asking for his Liao stronghold leader''s Atlas. The atlas is not a fool. Naturally, he knows what Mo Da means. If Liao stronghold children don''t go to school, I''m afraid they want to enter the brick kiln, it''s yellow.


    However, for the Han people''s admission of children to school, the atlas wisely believes that it is a means for the Han people to clamp down on the Liao people. Once the Liao children enter the Han school, and the parents work in the Han brick kiln, they will not deliberately destroy it. In addition, the Han people gave cotton padded clothes and managed rice. The treatment was not bad. Then they gritted their teeth and said, "in that case, the old man''s children are the first to enter school. Others can''t believe it. Can''t we still believe Mr. Mo Da?"


    All the staff members were silent. Moda traded chickens, ducks, geese, eggs and cubs with them. It was very fair. They exchanged money and goods casually, but they didn''t lower the price like the previous businessmen.


    "My children are willing to go to school, too! But what you said about cotton padded clothes and rice tube must be fulfilled." a miserable Liao Han stood up with his teeth clenched.


    "Mulang!"


    The surrounding Liao people couldn''t help but glare. When they saw the miserable Liao people, they couldn''t help but be silent. This Liao people, named Mulang, is the poorest Liao people in their Liao village. His family has been unable to cook for a long time. Now I heard that the school gives winter clothes and takes care of food.


    With the leader''s Atlas of Liao stronghold and the leader of Mulang, some poor Liao people soon followed suit and sent the children to school. Under the leadership of Mo Da, these Liao people were recruited into the brick kiln without hesitation.


    Of course, there are many tough bureaucrats who resolutely refuse to send children to school, even if they don''t hesitate to give up the opportunity to enter brick kilns.


    Mo Da sighed and whispered, "you will regret it."


    Now the imperial court has changed Yazhou into a state of exile, which is an unalterable fact. If these bureaucrats don''t follow the trend, they may suffer the consequences in the end.


    On the other hand, Liu Heng didn''t care about those stubborn Liao people who left. With the recruitment of Mohist brick kilns, and the recruitment of their first batch of school students, the Confucian education plan finally took a solid and firm first step.

 Chapter 922

    At Yazhou school, Kong huisuo looked at the black students with satisfaction. As long as these students learn Mandarin, they will affect a large number of people. Moreover, this is only the first batch, and generations of bureaucratic children who can speak Mandarin will continue to emerge in the future.


    "Why do you want to go to school?" Kong huisuo asked severely in the school.


    "In order to eat, the eggs at noon are really delicious." a child sipped his mouth and looked greedy. However, no one laughed at him. This time, they came to school from poor families. They can''t see meat at home for a year at ordinary times. They have become heavy taste eggs, which is extremely delicious in their hearts.


    "For winter clothes." another child caressed his first new clothes carefully. He felt that winter could be so warm for the first time.


    Such an answer, if in other schools, would certainly be killed by the master. However, the Confucian scholars in Yazhou school are surprised. If there is no winter clothes and lunch, I''m afraid not many children are willing to come to school.


    Kong huisuo was not depressed. It was their policy to lure each other. At present, he said loudly: "if you want new clothes and have a full meal, read well. Once you have learned, you can have delicious meals every day, new clothes every year, or even a few pieces a year.


    "Wow!" exclaimed a group of liaomin children, which they dared not think of before,


    "But if someone doesn''t study well, he won''t have to come to school next year. There will be no new clothes and no full lunch." Kong huisuo shouted.


    All the children were silent, dressed in new clothes, fed and didn''t have to work. This is the most comfortable life for children. Of course, the premise of all this is to learn to speak Mandarin.


    At present, the new students are full of fighting spirit and work very hard. After all, no one wants to live a life of hunger and cold.


    Looking at the progressive students, Kong huisuo finally smiled. No matter how the process was, the result was extremely satisfactory.


    "Dangdang!" as the bell rang, the day''s schoolwork was finally over.


    "Go home and pick oranges!" suddenly a crowd of schoolchildren dispersed.


    With the excellent response after the first batch of Mohist oranges were transported to Chang''an City, orders were immediately increased. Of course, all these are families that give priority to ordering school children.


    Learning Mandarin has visible benefits, which is the best way to attract colleagues to learn Mandarin. Just like learning English in future generations, although most people have never used English, it does not hinder the prevalence of English.


    Yazhou is rich in oranges. Almost every household here has orange groves, and the Liao people have limited food, which is wasted most of the time. Occasionally, some are sold, and the price is kept very low by unscrupulous merchants.


    The big order of Mohism instantly made Yazhou boiling. After all, no one thought that the worthless oranges could sell at a good price on weekdays.


    Suddenly, men, women, young and old joined the battle. Boxes of oranges were picked from the trees. Then, after the preservation treatment of the Mohist school, some of these oranges were stored in the warehouse, and some were rushed to Chang''an Luoyang.


    "This time, the Mohists hired another 200 bureaucrats to transport goods to Chang''an City, five Wen a day, the same old rule, giving priority to families entering school," said Mo Dalang.


    "Five Wen a day!" all the staff members were in an uproar.


    Three Wen a day for brick kilns has made many Liao people excited. Five Wen a day is not a full 150 Wen a month. This is a super high salary!


    "Why are you Han people so partial? Are you deceiving no one in our Liao stronghold?" a strong Liao man roared.


    "Gelke! Why are you making trouble?" the leader of Liaozhai''s Atlas roared. The Liao people have made progress. If they annoy the Han people, where to find five Wen a day and who to sell oranges to, and they will return to the plight of poverty.


    "Leader, can''t you see the tricks of the Han people? They are dividing us." gelke roared.


    "No!" the atlas shook his head and said, "the Han people are helping us. The Han people help us build roads, work, build schools, and let the children eat and wear warm. As for differentiation, since you don''t trust the Han people and don''t want to send the children to school, the Han people naturally don''t trust you. Will you hire someone you don''t trust as an assistant?"


    With the roar of the atlas, gelke couldn''t help a lag.


    "Did the leader forget the hatred between the Liao people and the Han people for so many years?" gelke said angrily. Soon after Niu JINDA calmed down the Yazhou rebellion, the people didn''t forget the hatred before.


    As soon as gelke mentioned the hatred of Han bureaucrats, many bureaucrats stirred up one after another. Liu Heng, who accompanied Mo University, immediately looked frightened and backward, but found that there were bureaucrats everywhere.


    "Han Liao''s hatred!" the atlas couldn''t help but feel a pain in his heart. Of course, he didn''t forget. However, they have been defeated. The losers are not qualified to mention hatred, otherwise they will only attract greater humiliation. Don''t forget that Niu JINDA''s tens of thousands of troops have been stationed in Yazhou.


    "I came here today just to defuse hatred." suddenly a harsh bureaucratic language shouted, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention,


    "This year''s oranges are just the beginning. There will be more oranges in demand next year. The Mohists will help you cultivate orange seedlings and Guangzhong orange forest. At that time, the oranges in Yazhou will be sold all over the country. Yazhou will become the richest tribe in liaozhou. You will have no worries about food and clothing, stability and prosperity like the Han people." Mo Da said loudly that although his bureaucratic language was astringent, it could still be understood by all the bureaucratic people.


    Liu Heng couldn''t believe looking at Mo da. No one thought that the best Liao Yu said was mo da.


    Just think about it. Mexico University has traveled all over Liao state to collect eggs and sell chicken, duck and goose cubs. If it has more exchanges with Liao people, it will naturally understand Liao language.


    "Have no worries about food and clothing!" all the staff members immediately calmed down. They thought about the newly added ducks in their home, the daily wages, the orange forest in the mountains, and the winter clothes on their children. As long as they didn''t expect, they would be rich in a few years.


    At the beginning, they rebelled because they were dissatisfied with the rich Han people and the poor Liao people, but they were defeated by the Han people in less than half a year. The war not only brought hatred, but also fear of the Han people.


    Now they can get a rich life without rebellion. Naturally, they know how to choose. Unconsciously, the Liao people have quietly distanced themselves from the Qiu Han faction such as gelke.


    Gelke and others suddenly turned blue. They didn''t expect any benefits. Their once solid backing was bought off.


    Mo Da''s words changed: "Since you also want to sell oranges, it''s not that the Mohists are unwilling to buy your oranges, but the road here is too bad to transport many oranges. Now the imperial court is going to build a brick road to the official road, with three Wen per person per day. If you want to sell oranges, repair the road first. Once the brick road is built, it''s not only orange ink this year It''s all inclusive, even next year? "


    "Seriously!" a member of the staff dare not set a channel.


    The chief of the staff immediately said to help: "Mr. Mo DA has never spoken nonsense. Can you still believe it?"


    Ordinary bureaucrats may not know the status of Mohism, but the leaders of bureaucrats find out how powerful Mohism is. They don''t need to deceive their poor bureaucrats.


    Suddenly, many Han Chou sects immediately defected and paid three Wen a day, which itself is a great temptation, not to mention selling all their oranges, which is a lot of income.


    Liu Heng couldn''t help but give a thumbs up to Mo da. To build brick roads, it was necessary to recruit many Liao people. Mo Da first provoked the dissatisfaction of the Liao people, and finally threw out the road construction plan. One cut and one block immediately turned the dissatisfaction of these Liao people into invisibility.


    Mo Da looked at the effect and nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, he turned his face and said sternly: "this brick road is the lifeblood of Yazhou. Once it is repaired, the oranges of Yazhou can be sold to Chang''an City, and the warm clothes of Han land will also be sold to Yazhou. At that time, you will have no worries about food and clothing, but if this brick road is damaged, all this will come to naught."


    Red bricks are also valuable in liaozhou. Many people have wooden houses. If they are not restrained, I''m afraid they will be poached by the Liao people soon. At that time, all their plans will be in vain.


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Mo da. Whoever destroys the brick road will be the enemy of our Liao stronghold. We won''t let him go without the imperial court." the atlas said firmly.


    Suddenly, many officials and people stared at gelke with bad eyes. I''m afraid only they were firm enemies of Han.


    Gelke suddenly looked bitter. Once he said that he opposed the Han people, it was a hundred echoes. However, now after a series of actions of Mohism and Confucianism, they have become enemies of the Liao people.


    When gelke returned to his shabby home with a lost face, he saw his wife teasing a group of ducklings with a happy face. When he saw gelke coming back, he couldn''t help standing up cramped.


    "I just saw that maner was too thin and wanted to get some duck eggs for him." gelke''s wife said like a wrong child. She knew that her husband never liked Han people, and these ducklings were Han people''s things.


    Although gelke is also a warrior in Liao village. He often gains a lot from hunting and has good family conditions, he is also relative. It''s good to be able to wrap up food and clothing.


    "Daddy!" a seven-year-old child in shabby clothes ran to gelke happily and rushed into gelke''s arms.


    "Buy it if you want!" gelke said calmly after a long time.


    "Then you..." gelke''s wife worried.


    Gelke said calmly, "I''m against the Han people, but the Han people bully me and other Liao people. If the Han people really treat the Liao people, what does gelke count if I work hard for them? I''ll build the road tomorrow, and it''s fair to pay three Wen a day. It''s the end of the year, and you should buy a new dress."


    Gelke''s wife couldn''t help but be moved and burst into tears. As a wife, how could she let her husband fight outside.


    The next day, Mexican university led 200 colleagues to leave with a convoy of oranges. They accidentally saw a burly figure in the huge road construction team, and couldn''t help laughing.


    "Yazhou has been set."

 Chapter 923

    "Young master and madam, these are oranges from Yazhou. Moda specially sent a batch for the princess to taste." in the Mo house, Fubo respectfully said with a plate of oranges.


    "Citrus! Not waxed?" Merton asked, taking a citrus skin that looked at its shiny surface.


    Fubo said with a smile, "of course not. This is a gift from Mo Da to the young master''s wife. Naturally, it won''t be waxed."


    Merton said with a smile, "it''s OK to wax. Oranges have a thick skin. You just need to remove the skin to eat, but the orange skin can''t be made into tangerine peel."


    Then Merton skillfully peeled off the orange peel and handed the fresh and tender pulp to Changle.


    Changle tasted a sweet orange and couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. He had a big appetite and ate it three or two times. When he was pregnant, he couldn''t eat a meal many times, but he had a special liking for fruit. When Changle ate it, he couldn''t help asking curiously, "what is waxing!"


    "This is a new method of preserving fruit invented by Mohism. As long as a thin layer of wax is coated on the skin of the fruit, the fruit can lock in moisture and remain fresh for a long time," Merton explained.


    "Wax, that''s the wax!" Princess Changle couldn''t believe pointing to the red candle.


    Merton smiled and said, "of course not. This paraffin wax is toxic, but the Mohists use a new type of wax, even edible. Of course, it''s not good to eat too much. There''s no problem with residue."


    Princess Changle suddenly said, "is this the same way you said about the preservation of apples?"


    Merton nodded and said, "this is just one of the methods. The effect of cold storage and waxing is better, and it is not impossible even to preserve it all year round. But I''m afraid it''s most suitable for that kind of apple to be peeled and eaten again, but compared with such great benefits, this problem is nothing!"


    "Isn''t there endless fruit after that?" Princess Changle said happily.


    Merton nodded and said, "since you like fruit best, you will naturally be fully satisfied. There are many fruits in Jiangnan even in winter. At that time, let someone bring some back to you."


    Princess Changle could not help being happy. If she had been taught by her tutor at ordinary times, she would certainly refuse. But now she is pregnant. No one would say anything even if she was extravagant? Naturally enjoy her husband''s love.


    "Send these oranges to the palace as tribute, and the rest claim that they are tribute oranges for sale." Merton waved his hand.


    "Ah! I''m afraid it''s not good, young master. How can the tribute be sold?" Fubo asked.


    Princess Lang of Changle said in a loud voice, "as my husband said, I think my father and Emperor don''t mind comforting Yazhou with the name of a tribute."


    It has to be said that Princess Merton Changle knows Li Shimin very well. For Li Shimin, who habitually uses the means of benefit without expense, she will never refuse this proposal.


    And Merton didn''t talk nonsense. How could he not recognize that the tribute oranges sent from Yazhou were from later generations.


    As a large number of tribute oranges were distributed in Chang''an City, the price was fair and delicious, which immediately aroused the looting of Chang''an people,


    "Gong Ju! I didn''t expect that Yazhou, the land of barbarians, still has such good things."


    "Yes, it is said that these oranges are reserved for your majesty to pay tribute, but there are too many local oranges for your majesty to eat. It''s just cheap for us."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Chang''an City, the people of Chang''an City who are preparing for the new year''s goods have a special preference for tribute oranges. First, tribute oranges have excellent appearance and taste. In addition, there are no fruits in winter, so tribute oranges have a unique position. Under the Mohist preservation technology, tribute oranges have excellent appearance and taste. More importantly, the price is fair, and oranges have brought auspicious meaning, Not to mention that this is a tribute to the emperor,


    With the New Year approaching, people''s desire to buy doubled, which suddenly detonated the Chang''an market.


    "It''s really cheap. Those Liao people? It''s said that the children of the Mohist school are transforming Liao state according to the book of getting rich by the Mohist school. Within three or five years, it must be a place to go home." a merchant sighed.


    "Getting rich Sutra" people were stunned when they heard the words, but they had heard the Tao Te Ching and the Buddhist sutra. Many people heard the "getting rich Sutra" for the first time.


    The merchant proudly said, "you don''t know that! The" getting rich classic "is summarized by Mohist Zi according to the experience of getting rich in Mohist village. The three states of Liao people are the experimental site of Mohist Zi''s" getting rich classic ". Other things aside, take Gongju as an example. I can conclude that it can certainly make those poor Liao people rich."


    "How could there be such a thing!" the people were surprised and inquired about it. Soon, Merton''s classic sayings began to spread widely in Chang''an city.


    In the Confucius Mansion, Kong Yingda looked at Yazhou''s information and couldn''t help shaking his head and smiling bitterly. He thought that seeing Kong huisuo had opened the situation, he couldn''t help but rejoice in his heart. However, who knew that he was overshadowed by Mozi''s getting rich classic.


    "The book of getting rich, Mozi really have a set." Kong Yingda said reluctantly that others don''t know about Yazhou, but he knows it clearly. Apart from others, the current situation of Confucianism in Yazhou depends on Mozi, and only if Yazhou is rich, can Confucianism''s Enlightenment war be completed. Neither of them is indispensable, Confucianism and Mohism complement each other.


    Not only Confucianism, but also other hundred schools of thought. After all, since the era of hundreds of scholars passed, there has been no eye-catching scriptures, and the unfinished "getting rich scripture" of mojiazi has brought the poor Yazhou back to life. Wouldn''t it be amazing if it was a book.


    In the ink magazine, Tian Mou, the new editor in chief, looked at the news about Yazhou with a dignified face. He couldn''t help sighing in his heart. Xiangfu''s pulse was really unwilling to fail. The means of turning stone into gold by Mojia village alone made him fall into the ground.


    "Mo San, immediately set up a new column in Mo magazine, called" getting rich classic ", which specially introduces the experience cases of getting rich for the people all over the world. The first issue takes Yazhou as an example." Tian Mou waved his hand.


    Mo San frowned when he heard the speech and said, "it''s related to the young master. Shall we have a prophet to tell the young master?"


    Tian Mou shook his head and said firmly, "Merton naturally promised me the position of chief editor. He has made it clear that in addition to the secret skills of Mohism, there is nothing to report. Reporting Yazhou can hide the secret skills of Mohism preservation, and other truthful reports can be used. The concept of Mohism is to love all the world. How can we only make one state rich and not make the world rich."


    "All right!" Mo San said helplessly. He found that he was the most unlucky. The two chief editors he cooperated with were eccentric people, which was really difficult to serve.


    When this issue of Ink magazine was published, Merton''s experience of getting rich immediately became popular all over the country. You should know that there are two things everyone likes in the world today, one is promotion and the other is getting rich. However, promotion is not everyone''s dream, and getting rich is everyone''s dream.


    With the release of "getting rich", the sales volume of Ink magazine soared again, and almost became the object of everyone''s pursuit. Immediately, the Confucian magazine ran out of shape. Even if the Confucian magazine was unwilling to be weak, it was still useless to report the progress of Kong Hui''s homonymy.

 Chapter 924

    With a heavy snowfall, it has added a sense of youth to the northern land, and the nine years of Zhenguan are finally coming to an end. In the twinkling of an eye, it was the annual year-end meeting.


    "Tell your majesty, our taxes have increased year after year, and this year they have soared by 10%, which is really gratifying!" Dai Zhou, the Minister of civil affairs, said proudly.


    With the social stability of Datang and the power of brick road and ink technology, Datang''s economy has grown rapidly, with a sharp increase of 10%, that is, the economic growth of future generations is 10%, which is a great achievement.


    "How about a 10% surge? It''s not enough to spend. The National Treasury has been losing money for years!" many ministers said in their hearts. Datang''s economy is growing rapidly, but there are more places to spend money. It''s really beyond our means. Rao is so. There are still many projects waiting to be carried out.


    Of course, on this happy day, no one will be disappointed. Most of them report good news rather than bad news.


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, said proudly: "this year, the Datang brick road will be increased by 1500 Li. There are still 800 Li under construction. The Weishui bridge is progressing smoothly,......."


    Dai Zhou couldn''t help but look at Zhang Liang with resentment. Even if his people''s Department has great skills, it can''t fill the bottomless hole of the Ministry of work.


    Linghu de Lang, the Minister of rites, said in a loud voice, "now I am in the service of all over the world in the Tang Dynasty. The world respects your majesty as Tian Khan. In addition, Tubo and other countries have offered a lot of money to ask for the teaching of Mohist ink skills."


    "Mohist ink skills!" all officials were stunned and turned their eyes to the last Merton.


    But this time without Merton, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "the Mohist ink technology is the private secret technology of the people. Even I have no right to deal with it. There is no need to mention the requests of Tubo and other countries."


    "Promise!" Linghu said clearly.


    The ability of Mohist ink technique to turn stone into gold has long been recognized by the government and the public. Even an ordinary ink technique can create great value. Naturally, no one who doesn''t know the phase encourages Mohist to give ink technique.


    With the performance of the six departments one by one, anyone can see that the national strength of Datang is booming and the situation is very good.


    "Your Majesty, there is a good news from Yazhou, and the art of Confucian education has achieved initial results. Yazhou children enter school, and everyone is proud of being able to speak Mandarin. The people''s heart to the Han Dynasty is increasing day by day. In less than five years, Yazhou will certainly be with the Central Plains. The people know etiquette and have no desire to rebel." Kong Yingda proudly stepped out and said in a loud voice.


    In recent years, Confucianists have been overwhelmed by hundreds of other schools. Now they are finally proud of their achievements in education. Kong Yingda naturally will not miss this opportunity to make Confucianists famous and specially chose to report the good news at the end of the year.


    "Good!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    For the Central Plains Dynasty, the barbarian land is like chicken ribs. It''s a pity to abandon it. Conquering the barbarian land will expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Opening up and expanding the territory is the dream of every emperor, but how to manage it after conquest is another difficult problem, and repeated rebellions are a headache for the Central Plains Dynasty, The Confucian art of enlightenment created a good strategy for the court to govern the conquered land. At that time, it turned chicken ribs into delicious chicken legs.


    "Of course, this also needs the help of the Mohist school." Kong Yingda was in a great mood and rarely took the initiative to show his merit for the Mohist school.


    Many ministers nodded one after another, whether they liked Merton or not, but they could not deny that Merton did have two brushes. In the past two years, the Tang Dynasty has been booming, and the Mohist school can take great credit.


    "Your Majesty, I have a book to play!" Yu Zhining suddenly stepped out.


    "Please speak!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "Tell your majesty that Yazhou tribute orange was originally a tribute to your majesty, but Mojia village openly sold it in Chang''an City, which is really detrimental to the royal dignity." Yu Zhining suddenly said.


    "Tribute orange!" Li Shimin couldn''t help looking sideways at Merton in the last row, and said, "Merton, how do you explain this?"


    Merton had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, there are not two tribute oranges in Yazhou, but every family has planted them. The output is quite large. It is more than enough to meet the imperial palace. However, what about the remaining tribute oranges? Should they rot on the trees? Moreover, with the Mohist grafting technology, the orange forest will be everywhere in Yazhou in the coming year, and the yield of tribute oranges will increase several times, even if the palace eats tribute oranges three times a day cannot eat out.


    Besides, your majesty asked the Confucian and Mohist families to cooperate to naturalize the Liao people in the three prefectures. If the tribute oranges in Yazhou are rotten on the trees, the people will still be poor. At that time, not to mention 100 Confucian scholars, I''m afraid it won''t help if adult Yu goes to liaozhou to educate himself. "


    "You!......" Yu Zhining said angrily.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "the yield of tribute oranges is huge. It''s not impossible to fall into the market. Besides, I''m not a greedy person. How can I enjoy such delicious food alone? I''m not as happy as all the others. I''m happy with the people."


    Li Shimin saw very clearly that a tribute orange can make Liao people naturalize in three states. How can it be worth thousands of dollars.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" all the officials flattered one after another.


    Kong Yingda is also rare to stand on Merton''s side. Lang said: "the naturalization of Liao people in the three states is so smooth. Mohou''s" getting rich classic "can be said to be a great contribution. Once Liao state is rich, everyone will speak Mandarin, and it will be obedient to the Tang Dynasty. There will be no rebellion.


    "Getting rich classic!" Li Shimin nodded repeatedly. In the ninth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin''s greatest harvest was not only delicious tribute oranges, but also the Confucian method of domesticating barbarians and the Mohist method of getting rich.


    In particular, the sincere cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism in the domestication method and the barbarian method is almost inevitable and disadvantageous. Yazhou, which was originally very hostile to the Han people, is a living example.


    For the Central Plains, although the miracle of Mojia village can not be copied, as long as you learn a few moves, you can benefit the people infinitely.


    In particular, the first sentence of the wealth Sutra, if you want to be rich, build roads first, have more children, and have a variety of trees is regarded as a classic. Just this year, the court received a request for the construction of brick roads in more than 100 counties. The three vertical and five horizontal plans proposed by Merton have begun to take shape.


    "I have some doubts about Mo Hou''s" getting rich Sutra ", and I would like to ask him for advice." suddenly Yu Zhining said proudly.


    Seeing that everyone''s eyes focused on himself again, Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He was sitting at home, and disaster came from heaven.


    "The so-called" getting rich Sutra "is just what the boy said in Mojia village. It is not a classic work, and it may not be applicable to other villages." Merton said quietly, as if he didn''t care about the getting rich Sutra pursued by the world.


    But Merton didn''t know that the more his attitude was, the more he would arouse Yu Zhining''s anger. If ordinary people could write the book of getting rich, they would want to be known all over the world, and Merton didn''t seem to care at all, which made Yu Zhining jealous.


    "Confucius said that he would examine me three times a day. Marquis Mo didn''t care about his words and deeds, but he didn''t know that his words and deeds affected the people all over the world. If Marquis Mo was so hasty, he misled the people all over the world and didn''t know who would bear the responsibility." Yu Zhining angrily denounced.


    There was a strong smell of gunpowder in the hall.

 Chapter 925

    "Hasty, misleading?" Merton raised his head and stared at Yu Zhining. "Getting rich is a summary of the successful experience of Mojia village and a practical strategy to enrich the people. How did it become misleading among the Royal population."


    Yu Zhining sneered: "for thousands of years, all dynasties have focused on agriculture and restrained commerce. How did it become impossible to live without commerce in the mouth of mohou? It was the first to do business in Yazhou. The low-cost tribute oranges in Yazhou have multiplied several times through the hands of Mohism. If everyone in the world does business, pursues profits and forgets righteousness at the sight of profits, is it not etiquette corruption? This atmosphere is caused by Mohism taking the lead."


    Merton retorted with a sneer: "since Lord Yu thinks businessmen are good for nothing, why not play your majesty and prohibit the people all over the world from doing business."


    "Eh!" Yu Zhining choked. Although he agreed to emphasize agriculture and suppress business, if he banned business in the world, he would certainly be laughed off.


    "Since ancient times, the emphasis on agriculture and suppression of commerce is based on the fact that the world''s products are not abundant, and the people are still short of clothes and food. Paying attention to agriculture is the foundation of the country. Only sufficient food can stabilize the society. At the end of successive dynasties, the people were unable to live. It was the people who did not have enough food and could not live that caused social unrest. This is what I said about the instability without agriculture." Merton Lang said.


    All officials could not help nodding. They had experienced the turmoil in the late Sui Dynasty. Naturally, they knew that the reason for the unrest was that the people could not live, so they rose one after another.


    "As for being rich without work, a bucket of grain is only three or five Wen. If it is ground into flour, the price can be increased by 30%. If it is made into cake, it can make profits several times; an egg is only one Wen, and the price of hatching chicken is doubled; a kilogram of iron is only ten Wen, and a kilogram of good steel is more than 100 Wen. As for the reason why the price of tribute oranges has increased several times, do you know that Mojia village transports them from Yazhou to Chang How much manpower and material resources does an City need, coupled with the secret preservation skills of Mohism, to make tribute oranges fresh as before. Such a price is also extremely reasonable. The people of Chang''an City buy them one after another. The so-called work is to double the value of agricultural products through the processing of Mohism, which is the reason why all workers are rich, and also the reason why Mohist village is rich. "Merton said proudly.


    "That''s the so-called no business without living?" Yu Zhining asked. The Tang Dynasty also emphasized agriculture and restrained commerce, while mojiazi''s "getting rich" openly supported businessmen. He looked at how Merton justified himself.


    Merton said proudly: "Businessmen don''t work in production, but they travel between the two places to exchange needed goods. Now Datang is booming. Through the progress of ink technology in Datang, Quyuan plow and pesticides can increase grain production year after year. Artificial incubation technology makes chickens, ducks and geese everywhere, and grafting technology makes melons and fruits all over the mountains. At this time, people who grow grain want to eat meat, while those who raise chickens and ducks want to eat fruits and grow fruits Trees want food. All these need merchants to transport goods and exchange needed goods. People can exchange the surplus harvest for money so that everyone can get the material they want. This is no business. Yazhou does not produce food, but it is rich in tribute oranges. If no merchants bring food and buy tribute oranges, I''m afraid the tribute oranges all over the mountains will rot on the trees , how can people in Chang''an city taste such delicious food? "


    All officials nodded one after another. Although everyone said that agriculture was important and business was restrained, privately, which family did not do business secretly, otherwise how to maintain a decent life in Chang''an City.


    "All the people in the world are indispensable. Businessmen are also an indispensable link in the world. Of course, there are many illegal businessmen who hoard strange goods and shoddy goods, which requires the supervision of the imperial court," Merton added.


    Yu Zhining said with a smile: "mohou''s words fight lotus, but it can''t cover up the fact that the world''s wealth is just a bowl of water. If one takes more, one will take less. The so-called prosperity of Mojia village and Yazhou is just to take the wealth of the world to enrich the two places."


    As soon as Yu Zhining said this, many civil servants immediately nodded. Since ancient times, the theory that the world''s wealth is a bowl of water has been recognized all over the world. As soon as Yu Zhining''s theory came out, it immediately aroused widespread support.


    Merton angrily denounced: "it''s ridiculous. A bowl of water in the world''s wealth is a great fallacy. Wealth is not quantitative, but created by tens of thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, the taxes in the Tang Dynasty have increased year after year. Where did the extra money come from? Did the imperial court search the people again?"


    "Mo family, don''t talk nonsense." Yu Zhining said with embarrassment. If the taxes were roughly the same every year before, Yu Zhining seemed very correct. However, since the wide application of Mo family''s ink technology, the tax revenue of Datang increased sharply year after year, which immediately made this sentence full of loopholes. As soon as Merton shot, he hit his key point directly.


    "I''m not talking nonsense. The world''s wealth is a bowl of water, which may be so in a short time. However, in a long time, the world''s wealth is growing. Take the taxes of Datang, the 10% tax increase every year is the wealth created by the people of Datang in the past year.


    "This is only the data of recent years. If you compare it with the previous dynasties, you will find that the wealth of the Tang Dynasty will be much higher than that of the previous dynasties. Where did these wealth come from?" Merton asked.


    Yan shigu nodded and stood out and said, "however, take the most powerful Han Wu period for example, its one-year tax is not less than 50% of that in the Tang Dynasty."


    "In the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Chinese land was desolate, and the people all over the world built cities and opened up farmland. These are the wealth created by the people. It is the hard work of our Chinese people from generation to generation that makes us rich now. Let alone that the output of one mu of farmland was only three loads, now the farmland in the world has been generally four loads, the original two loads The wagon can carry only a kilo of cargo, while the four wheeled wagon generally carries three or five thousand kilos of forage, which is almost the same. Originally, there were few melons and fruits, and the grafting technology can make melons and fruits everywhere. The increased production comes from adults. I don''t know if you can explain where it comes from. "Merton forced me to look at it.


    Yu Zhining immediately blushed and was speechless. The production increase effect brought by Mohist ink technology was very significant. These naked data directly hit his face, which made him unable to refute.


    Merton said proudly: "What a fallacy is that wealth in the world is a bowl of water. Wealth is created by the hands of all people in the world and accumulated from generation to generation. According to the current momentum, the tax of Datang will increase at the rate of 10% per year. You can calculate that the tax of Datang will double on the existing basis in ten years, double again in twenty years, and double every ten years, such as In a hundred years, the annual tax of Datang will reach such a huge figure. "


    "Hoo!"


    The people of the Manchu Dynasty could not help a stir. Many ministers with excellent arithmetic had even calculated the unimaginable astronomical figures.


    "If the existing wealth of Datang is a bowl of water, over time, it will accumulate a bucket of water, a jar of water, or even a lake until it accumulates into an endless sea." Merton threw it on the ground.


    So far, Datang''s first wealth debate has officially ended. With the support of iron data, Yu Zhining''s defeat is incomplete. Merton''s wealth creation theory has appeared in Datang for the first time.

 Chapter 926

    "You want to leave the Mo mansion."


    In the ink mansion, Merton looked at the determined purple clothes on his face and said in surprise. As soon as he finished the meeting, he saw the purple clothes he was preparing to pack and leave.


    "It''s not leaving the Mo mansion, but returning to the Mojia village. The young master prepares to build a kindergarten for the little Lord. What he learns is painting and vocal music, which Ziyi is good at. Three years later, Ziyi will serve the little Lord again with a well-prepared kindergarten." Ziyi said firmly on her face.


    With Merton''s marriage to Princess Changle, Ziyi''s position became more and more embarrassing. Since then, Merton''s work was taken over by Princess Changle and the palace maids brought by her. She did nothing all day. Just when Mojia village was preparing for the kindergarten, Ziyi made up her mind to leave Mofu and return to Mojia village to join the Kindergarten under construction.


    "You have talent in painting, which I believe is not necessary to say vocal music?" Merton frowned at purple.


    Ziyi''s face turned red and said stubbornly, "vocal music is one, naturally someone else teaches."


    "Who is it?" Merton asked curiously.


    "Gongsun moon!" Ziyi raised her head.


    Merton was surprised and said, "has she returned to Chang''an?"


    Since he appointed Gong Sunyue as the spokesman for solving Qianchou, Gong Sunyue has been running around the Tang Dynasty to promote the solution of Qianchou, and rarely returns to Chang''an.


    "Not back to Chang''an City, but back to Mojia village." Ziyi corrected, "sister Gongsun has been running around for more than two years, and now it''s time to have a rest. Now sister Gongsun has settled in Mojia village. At that time, it''s just right for Ziyi to teach children''s painting and sister Gongsun to teach dance music."


    Merton was silent. He didn''t know when Ziyi and Gongsun Yue were so close, but he had to admit that their cooperation was indeed the best choice.


    "OK! The kindergarten has just been established. If you two improve it, you can''t make a career." Merton thought and nodded.


    "Thank you, young master. Ziyi said goodbye." Ziyi bowed her head and resolutely turned away.


    Merton couldn''t help looking at purple clothes. When he came to the world, the first thing he saw was purple clothes. Purple clothes were the longest with him. Now he was leaving.


    "If you go now, it''s too late. Anyway, I''m pregnant and can''t serve my husband. It''s fair to take another room of concubines. Which young master''s servant girl in Chang''an city is not taken as a concubine. Besides, you''re willing to let someone as considerate as purple clothes go." suddenly, Princess Changle''s voice came from one side.


    Merton turned around, looked at Princess Changle coming slowly with a pregnant stomach, and hurried to meet her,


    Merton explained with a wry smile: "don''t laugh, madam. Purple clothes and I depend on each other. There''s nothing else but brother and sister."


    Princess Changle looked at Merton and said, "it''s really my lover. According to my body, the heart of purple clothes is all on you. Don''t worry about my body, lest everyone in Chang''an say that my body is jealous. Even if I''m pregnant, I have to monopolize my husband."


    Merton shook his head and said, "that''s Ziyi''s long time in the ink house. When she sees the outside world, it will naturally change."


    Princess Changle walked slowly around Merton and then looked at Merton.


    Merton looked at the charming face of Princess Changle, felt the heat exhaled by Changle, and couldn''t help but feel a burning heat in his heart.


    "What about Gongsun..."


    However, without waiting for him, Princess Changle''s next sentence immediately made him sweat.


    "The so-called beauty is in distress, the hero saves the beauty, and the beauty promises each other. This is the most common story in the story book. Moreover, Gongsun can''t help being beautiful, and she is excellent in both singing and dancing. She walks around the world for the Mojia village, has a reputation throughout the Tang Dynasty, and has won the title of the first beauty among the people. Isn''t it exciting for such a woman to wait so long?"


    Princess Changle smiled, and the sweat on Merton''s head became more and more dense.


    "It''s just a business. The reason why the Mohist village separated Gongsun from the humble nationality is that the Mohists love non aggression, so there will be no humble nationality. Gongsun has been running for the Mohist village for several years, so that Xie Qianchou can sit firmly in the first place in the world. In terms of return, the Mohist village has benefited a lot, and Gongsun doesn''t owe anything to the Mohist." Merton quickly explained, Since Princess Changle was pregnant, her mood was unstable. He didn''t want any misunderstanding.


    Princess Changle looked at Merton with a smile and said, "I know all this, but as a woman, if someone saved me from fire and water, how can this kindness be repaid by running for two years..."


    When Merton heard the speech, he was furious and said, "why, she got my money and wanted my people. There is no such good thing in the world. Isn''t it revenge for kindness?"


    Princess Changle stared at Merton pretending to be angry and couldn''t help laughing at Merton''s brain circuit.


    People in the world are proud of women''s promises, but they didn''t expect that they would become the enemy of the hand when they came to Merton. The contrast of such a novel statement is too great.


    When Merton saw that Princess Changle was amused, he gave a heavy sigh of relief. He hugged Changle in his arms and said, "the tradition of Mohism has been monogamous since ancient times. From giants to ordinary Mohist children, I can''t be an exception."


    "Monogamy, isn''t it all over the world?" Princess Changle wondered.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s monogamy. Concubinage is strictly prohibited. Even staying in the brothel is regarded as cheating and will be severely punished by the Mohists."


    Since ancient times, monogamy has been practiced in China, but concubinage is not prohibited. However, most rich families have groups of wives and concubines, and it is rare for the Mohist family to adhere to strict monogamy. Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Mohist family has always been stable at the poverty line.


    Princess Changle suddenly said, "that''s why you forbid Mojia village to open brothels."


    Merton nodded heavily and said, "this is an iron law. Every Mohist child should abide by the bottom line."


    The Mojia village was extremely poor before, and could not even marry a daughter-in-law. Naturally, monogamy was strictly observed. However, after the Mojia village became rich, some of the children of the Mojia village began to be greedy for pleasure. Concubinage was a faint sign. Merton took the opportunity to rectify the atmosphere.


    Princess Changle said suspiciously, "don''t say that deliberately in order to please me. My concubine has asked other princesses and will arrange palace maids and son-in-law to sleep during pregnancy. If you do, it will be said that my concubine is jealous."


    Princess Changle was born in the imperial palace. She was used to the behavior of imperial concubines competing for the favor of Li Shimin. Even empress changsun took the initiative to select imperial concubines for Li Shimin. Naturally, Princess Changle was also affected by it, and it was not a big thing for a man in the Tang Dynasty to find a housemaid.


    Looking at the aggrieved expression of Princess Changle, Merton couldn''t help but pity and laugh. He said softly, "it''s not easy for us to come to this day. We only have each other in our hearts, and we can''t accommodate others."


    Princess Changle was immediately moved. She looked at Merton emotionally and said with pity: "but now my concubine is pregnant. I''m afraid she can''t serve her husband in October..."


    Merton suddenly knew the reason why Princess Changle was tangled. He moved in his heart and bowed his head in Changle''s ear and said, "it''s not impossible. It''s not possible for the first three months and the next three months, but you just need to be careful in the middle three or four months!"


    "Seriously!" Princess Changle opened her eyes suspiciously.


    "Of course, this is what Dean Zhang ordered." Merton threw the pot to Zhang without hesitation.


    "Well..." Princess Changle immediately winked, spitting out fragrance and whispered,


    "Since you did so well today, you will be rewarded..."


    Merton laughed and couldn''t wait to pick up the slightly overweight Princess Changle and kick open the bedroom door.

 Chapter 927

    When he woke up, Merton felt refreshed and looked at the Sleeping Princess Changle. A trace of tenderness could not help but appear in the corners of his mouth.


    Last night''s Wenxiang nephrite still let him linger, and he couldn''t help bullying him again.


    "Don''t make trouble! There''s still business today?" Princess Changle woke up and pushed Merton away.


    "What''s the business?" Merton couldn''t help but wonder. Changle has been raising a fetus recently, but she is almost isolated from the outside world at home. Unless there are extremely important things, she will not trouble Changle.


    "It''s not about Mojia village!" Princess Changle put on her clothes and said.


    "I don''t know about Mojia village?" Merton scratched his head and said puzzled.


    "This is the marriage of the women in the waiting girls in Mojia village. Of course, I''m sorry to find you. I found my concubine here." Princess Changle glanced at Merton.


    Merton wondered, "it''s wrong to get married. Now that Mojia village is the richest in the world, I''m afraid I can''t afford a dowry?"


    Princess Changle shook her head and said with a bitter smile: "it''s not that she can''t afford a dowry, but that group of girls are now arrogant. Ordinary peasant children don''t like it and don''t want to leave Mojia village. Many men in Mojia village got married this year, and none of the girls over 16 got married."


    "How could it be so?" Merton couldn''t help but be stunned. He tried hard to make Mojia village rich. He saw that he was going to solve the problem of single men in Mojia village, but who thought that single women would become popular again.


    "It''s not that Mojia village is too rich. Once a woman marries out, she can''t enjoy the benefits of Mojia village, and how can she be willing to marry into an ordinary family from a rich Mojia village." Princess Changle said helplessly. The conditions in Mojia village are really good. Now the men in Mojia village can be said to take a pick when they get married. However, women''s marriage has become a big problem. How can the children of Mojia who have just lived a good life be willing to let their daughter live that hard life again.


    "So, the Mohist daughter is in the middle, high or low." Merton understood the reason.


    The princess of Changle nodded, "but it is not a solution that is not to be solved. That is to say that the women in Mohist village do not have to marry outside, retain the registered residence of Mohist village, and treat the Mohist village, so they can not rush to the door to son-in-law.


    Mojia village is the richest in the world. There are many men who want to enter Mojia village. It is not difficult to recruit a redundant son-in-law.


    "Don''t be a redundant son-in-law!" Merton quickly shook his head. Although the Mojia village can find a door-to-door son-in-law, how many aspiring men are willing to be door-to-door son-in-law. Although the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty is open, the status of door-to-door son-in-law is extremely low. Even the bottom businessmen are inferior and can''t be an official. There are various political restrictions, which is not in line with the atmosphere of universal love and equality of the Mojia.


    "What do you think you should do?" Princess Changle said helplessly. If you don''t recruit a redundant son-in-law, those arrogant women in Mojia village may be difficult to get married.


    Merton waved with great hands: "this is easy to handle. Since a group of sisters do not want to move out registered residence in Mohist village, they do not have to move out. After marriage, registered residence in Mohist village is retained, and even there is no problem in continuing to live in Mohist village."


    "Stay in Mojia village, but is the man willing?" Princess Changle didn''t understand.


    "The male side also has two choices, one can stay in registered residence in the man''s home, and as for where to live, it will be two people who wish to volunteer. The other is the man who registered residence in Mohist village and enjoys the same benefits as Mohist village."


    "Isn''t that still a redundant son-in-law?" Princess Changle wondered. Merton''s operation was just a replica of the redundant son-in-law.


    "Of course not!" explains Merton. "The man moved to the Mohist village instead of moving to the home of the woman. After the two men got married, they would have a separate registered residence and remain the man''s master. The surname of the future child was still with his father, which is certainly not a son-in-law."


    "I see!" Princess Changle couldn''t help but brighten her eyes. In this way, she could have the best of both worlds.


    The world envies Mojia village, and the talent introduction conditions in Mojia village are very high. In addition, it takes a certain number of years, and marrying a woman from Mojia village is the quickest way to join Mojia village.


    "Mohists love the world, how can they abandon the Mohist women who are about to marry? Moreover, only in this way can a group of sisters find a good son-in-law and live a happy life." Merton said.


    "But I''m afraid the most vulnerable one is Mojia village." Princess Changle understood that once the women in Mojia village get married and move their registered permanent residence, the burden of Mojia village will increase greatly.


    "It''s not bad for Mojia village. Mojia village has a small population and the time to introduce talents is slow. A group of sisters can find a good son-in-law and introduce a large number of good sons for Mojia village, which can be regarded as injecting fresh blood into Mojia village." Merton nodded. In this era, the marriage system is recognized as the most secure and effective system. Even Li Shimin is also a habitual means of marriage. Although Merton has no intention of doing so, he doesn''t mind using this method.


    right! Li Shimin used to win over the minister by means of marriage, but why his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes? Was it not worth Li Shimin''s win over him and the Mohist school? Merton couldn''t help falling into deep doubt.


    However, what he didn''t expect was that other marriages were selected by Li Shimin on his own initiative, but he directly and secretly attacked Princess Changle and secretly communicated with Princess Changle Hongyan, which made Li Shimin, who had always been proud, how to bear it. It was lucky to be only dissatisfied with him, and others had already disappeared quietly.


    "This is what my husband said about win-win!" Princess Changle tilted her head and looked at Merton with a smile. She said that the daughter of Mojia village can marry well, and she, the mistress of Mojia village, is also happy for it.


    Merton laughed and said, "send a letter to Tian Mou and tell him that I want to make a marriage advertisement in the ink magazine, which is for all the sisters in the Mojia village."


    "Marriage advertisement!" Princess Changle was surprised. She is no stranger to marriage advertisements. At the beginning, Merton made a marriage advertisement for veteran Zhang Laoer in Ink magazine and found a good wife for him, but she didn''t expect that there was a time for marriage advertisements in Mojia village.


    "Of course, it''s hard to find a good son-in-law. Naturally, we have to start in advance." Merton said proudly. After that, he looked at Princess Changle proudly and proudly.


    Looking at Merton''s complacent appearance, Princess Changle couldn''t help laughing and laughing. Who could have thought that the famous mojiazi would be so narcissistic.


    "Marriage advertisement!"


    When editor in chief Tian saw the letter sent by Merton, he was stunned. He always felt that ink magazine was a very sacred publication, representing fairness and truth. But who could have thought that Merton refreshed his three views again and even used ink magazine to seek marriage for women in Mojia village.


    "This is what the young master ordered himself." Mo Sanyi looked at Tian MOU with worry, for fear that the stubborn old man would not give the young master face in anger.


    "As long as it''s not against the law, discipline and morality, I won''t refuse. I told Merton that the advertising fee this time can''t be less." although Tian Mou is stubborn, he is not an old-fashioned person, and marriage is a big event since ancient times. He also heard about the marriage of women and children in Mojia village.


    He originally thought that the problem of women''s marriage in Mojia village was a dead knot, but when he saw Merton''s marriage advertisement, he couldn''t help admiring. No one thought that Merton should make such a strange move and solve the biggest problem in Mojia village at once.


    "Mojia Zi has a big plan." Tian Mou looked at the conditions of the marriage advertisement and took a deep breath. With so many good sons joining Mojia village, the strength of Mojia village will grow again.


    As Mo San left in a hurry, the whole ink magazine immediately worked overtime. Soon, with the release of the last issue of the ink magazine in the ninth year of Zhenguan, the marriage advertisement of Mojia village instantly detonated Chang''an city.

 Chapter 928

    "Mohist marriage search!"


    Many people were tongue tied when they saw the bright characters on the ink magazine. Last year, the ink magazine solicited the marriage of veteran Zhang Laoer, which has become the talk capital of Chang''an City and has been talked about with relish.


    But who would have thought that Feng Shui took turns and it was the Mohist family''s turn to seek marriage.


    "It''s just immoral. How can marriage be such a trifle." many stubborn old people denounced this behavior that he thought was embarrassing. Before that, no one hyped that he wanted to get married, but it was special here in Mohism.


    "You don''t have a back ache when you stand and talk. I''m afraid you''re worried if hundreds of girls in your family can''t get married." a merchant familiar with the current situation of Mojia village spoke for Mojia. He often goes back and forth between Chang''an City and Mojia village. Naturally, he knows the situation of Mojia village.


    "Hundreds of girls can''t get married." the people who heard it couldn''t help but be in an uproar and inquire about what was going on.


    When people learned about the current situation of Mojia village, they couldn''t help laughing and laughing. Who would have thought that there were so many waiting girls in Mojia village.


    "Mojia village is really wonderful. When a man is poor, he can''t marry his daughter-in-law. When he gets rich, his daughter can''t marry out." an idle man smiled.


    The surrounding citizens also laughed loudly. It seemed that Mojia village was born to fight against singles. The problem of male singles had just been solved, and the problem of female singles appeared again.


    "It''s not that you can''t marry, but that you don''t want to marry. Once you marry out of Mojia village, you will lose all the treatment of Mojia village and become an ordinary woman. Who wants to?" the merchant sighed.


    People can''t help nodding. I''m afraid it''s difficult for them to make a decision.


    "But now, the daughter of Mojia village will never worry about getting married. With these conditions, the matchmaker will break through the gate of Mojia village again." the merchant sighed when he looked at the terms on the magazine.


    Once you take the daughter of Mojia village, you not only don''t have to be a door-to-door son-in-law, but also enjoy the treatment of Mojia village. This is a great gospel. It must attract a large number of good family children in Guanzhong to marry Mojia women. It''s a good thing to have worked for less than 20 years!


    "Why can''t such a good thing turn on me? I blame my early birth for a few years." a wretched idle man sighed with a wristless sigh.


    "Just you, even if you don''t have a wife, no Mohist woman will like you. If you think everyone can get such good conditions, you have to have a Mohist woman like you." the merchant said bitterly.


    Mohist village is the richest in the world. Who doesn''t want to join Mohist village? Now, a good son who wants to marry a Mohist woman must be like a crucian carp crossing the river. It''s not easy to jump into Longmen.


    "That''s right! I don''t have a chance, but my nephews are just right." many people can''t help but get excited, quietly withdraw from the crowd, and can''t wait to go home. Whether they can take a woman from Mojia village depends on their luck.


    Soon, the matchmaker came to Mojia village again, but this time she was matchmaking for the daughter of Mojia village.


    At the same time as the matchmaker, the motorcade of Merton and Princess Changle arrived in Mojia village. The new year is approaching. At the annual Mojia village conference, Merton returned to Mojia village again.


    "Hello, young master! Hello, madam!"


    When Merton''s motorcade just arrived at Mojia village, they heard the grateful voices of villagers. Naturally, Merton''s marriage advertisement has spread all over Mojia village, and each Mojia woman can be betrothed to a lover, which is the greatest wish of every parent.


    "It seems that your husband''s efforts have not been in vain." Princess Changle sighed when she looked at the beloved Merton. There are not many food fiefs in Chang''an City, but not many like Merton.


    "It''s just human nature to be a parent. In the future, our children naturally want to have a good belonging." Merton looked at the slightly raised belly of Princess Changle and said happily.


    "But what if these people who want to marry Mohist daughters come for the wealth of Mohist village?" Changle Gong Mei said. She is a princess. Naturally, she has seen countless people who want to please them.


    Merton had to smile and said, "this is the most important task for my husband to return to the Mojia village this time, and to choose a son-in-law for the Mojia family."


    If men come for the wealth of Mojia village, such a marriage will not be happy. He came here today to solve this problem.


    "Young master, the round table meeting is ready, waiting for the young master." Merton''s carriage has just been settled, and tie an hurried to report.


    Merton looked at Princess Changle apologetically. Princess Changle said thoughtfully, "go and be busy first. My body is just close to the women and children of Mojia village."


    She is the hostess of Mojia village. This is the time to show her hostess demeanor.


    Merton nodded, and then got out of the carriage and strode away.


    Princess Changle went to the new Mohist village in a carriage. When Princess Changle''s carriage stopped in the new Mohist village, almost all the women and children in the village went out, looking at the proud belly of Princess Changle with hot eyes. Here, she cherished the hope of the Mohist village.


    Not to mention the popular Princess Changle in the Mojia village, Merton pushed the door into the original site of the Mojia house and couldn''t help but show a knowing smile when he saw the familiar Mojia people.


    "You''ve worked hard this year," Merton said with a smile.


    "The young master flattered me. If the young master hadn''t planned strategies, there would be no Mojia village today." Li Yilang said. Compared with the repeated setbacks of last year, this year''s Mojia village can be said to be smooth with the wind and water and create miracles many times.


    Merton laughed and said, "we don''t have to boast about each other here. This year''s round table is missing an old friend. Master Li left in order to realize his ideal. We should bless him."


    Han Zheng nodded and said, "brother Li is ambitious, which really makes us admire."


    He and Mr. Li are old acquaintances. Naturally, he understands Mr. Li''s personality and aspirations. If Confucianism had not baited primary schools all over the world, Mr. Li would not have left Mojia village.


    "It''s a pity that there are fewer drinkers this year." Li Yi sighed. Master Li''s good wine, especially Mohist wine, is his favorite, which is well known.


    Merton laughed and said, "although Master Li has left, Mohist wine will still be supplied. Of course, some old friends have left, and some new people have joined Mohist village. I believe everyone is not unfamiliar."


    Merton reached out and saw a familiar figure come in.


    "Brother Shen." Han Zheng said hello. He found that Merton had gone to the Imperial College for a year and even dug two Imperial College doctors to join the Mojia village. I don''t know Kong Yingda doesn''t regret letting Merton enter the Imperial College.


    "Dr. Shen!"


    "Master Shen!"


    Shen Hongcai responded one by one. Although he participated in the Mohist round table for the first time, he was well-known for this round table, which represents fairness and has no primary or secondary distinction. In this era with a strong concept of inferiority and dignity, the round table is a clear stream.


    "Brother Shen is a hero of the Mohist school. Brother Shen and the bank have made great contributions to the great development of the Mohist village this year." Li Yi said sincerely.


    With the Bank of Mojia village, the development of Mojia village is no longer worried about the shortage of funds, and various transaction procedures are greatly simplified. All departments are just together, and the operation is more smooth, which makes Mojia village even more powerful.


    "You are flattered. Without the support of Mojia village, Shen is also a clever woman. It is difficult to make bricks without rice." Shen Hongcai solemnly said. After he joined Mojia village, he really understood how deep the strength of Mojia village is.


    "Well, now that you''ve met, let''s start!" Merton waved his hand and the round table officially began.

 Chapter 929

    "This year''s Mojia village is running well, and its profit has soared by 30% compared with previous years,......." at the round table, Li Yi was elated and raised his eyebrows.


    Compared with last year''s disheartened face, this year''s situation in Mojia village is very good, which makes him finally fight a turnaround.


    Shen Hongcai carefully supported the detailed statement of Mojia village and carefully evaluated the operation risk of Mojia village. He found that the operation system of Mojia village is extremely advanced. Ordinary merchants buy as much goods as they have. When the goods are sold out, they take the money to purchase.


    Mojia village is not the case. All departments operate jointly. Every penny of money is used to do the most things with the least money. Originally, this model has great risk. Once any link goes wrong, it will cause a capital crisis.


    The previous crises in Mojia village were caused by this reason. However, the establishment of the bank insured this model. As long as there is no problem with the bank, the model of Mojia village will be as stable as Mount Tai.


    "The bank is the top priority of Mohist school. We must ensure the smooth operation. In case of crisis, other businesses can be suspended, and we must keep the bank." Merton looked around at the people and said in a loud voice.


    Suddenly everyone''s eyes focused on Shen Hongcai. Shen Hongcai took a deep breath: "thank you for your attention. Shen is ashamed."


    Merton Lang said: "master Shen should not belittle himself. The function of the bank is the top priority. In addition to scheduling the funds of each workshop, he is also responsible for supervising the abnormalities of each workshop. In addition to regularly checking the books of each workshop, once the abnormal operation of the funds of each workshop is found, he can directly lead the team to investigate."


    For a moment, the hearts of the Mohists were tight. In this way, didn''t master Shen want to supervise other workshops, and he immediately paid more attention to master Shen.


    "What if you really find a problem?" Shen Hongcai said with a heavy face. Merton not only gave him enough trust, but also gave him a heavy burden.


    Merton turned his head and looked aside at Han Zhengdao: "next, it''s naturally a matter of legalism."


    Han Zheng nodded and said calmly, "brother Shen doesn''t know. It''s the consistent custom of Mohism to adopt third-party supervision. I''m sure you will try your best to cooperate."


    Mohist people nodded and said, "what you did is for Mohist. We are grateful. How can we have the slightest dissatisfaction."


    Li Yilang said, "you can rest assured, brother Shen. As long as anyone who doesn''t have eyes offends brother Shen, you don''t need the young master''s orders. Li won''t spare them first."


    No one doubts Li Yi''s words. The old man has devoted his life to Mohism. If anyone does something harmful to Mohism, Li Yi will be the first to spare him.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction: "the Mohist school can come to this day, relying on the advanced system and third-party supervision. On the one hand, it is to avoid the shackles of worldly sophistication, but also to protect the children of the Mohist School and avoid their mistakes."


    Han Zheng couldn''t help nodding. At this point, the Mohists do better than anyone, which is also the guarantee for the prosperity of the Mohist village.


    "Of course, in addition to the achievements, there are also many problems in Mohist village, such as the marriage of Mohist women," Merton said solemnly.


    Li Yi immediately bowed his head and said, "it''s the second uncle who is too indecisive."


    The daughter of any family in the world is not the water poured out by the married daughter, but when the parents of Mojia village begged him, he was also soft hearted. After all, Mojia village only had a good life for a few days. Once married to another village, I''m afraid he would have to go back to that kind of hard life, so he begged Princess Changle.


    They also wanted to recruit a redundant son-in-law, but they didn''t expect Merton to think of a better solution.


    "Children''s marriage is related to the future of Mohist village. How can it be so hasty? Mohist takes universal love as the concept. Naturally, there can''t be any inequality. Don''t mention this idea to a redundant son-in-law in the future." Merton knocked.


    "What the young master said is very true!" Li Yi nodded solemnly. This time, he almost made a big mistake when he read the benevolence.


    Han Zheng also sighed. His biggest feeling when he came to Mojia village was that there was a fairer atmosphere here. There was no status, dignity and arrogance. Everyone was treated equally. This coincided with the concept of Legalism and naturally became an ideal experimental place for legalism.


    "Fortunately, it''s not too late this time. Mr. Han, the students want you to draft the most fair household marriage law as the village rules." Merton solemnly saluted Han Zheng.


    "The most fair household marriage law?" Han Zheng looked at Merton in surprise. To know that the Tang Dynasty already had a household marriage law, was Merton dissatisfied with the existing household marriage law?


    Merton smiled and said, "does Mr. Han think that today''s household marriage law is very fair?"


    Han Zheng was surprised for a while. He had never thought of this problem before. But when he thought that today''s topic was the marriage of women in Mojia village, he suddenly realized that Merton was fighting for the rights and interests of Mojia daughters, and Datang family marriage law firm guaranteed the interests of men, but was extremely harsh on women.


    Merton nodded: "the Mohist village has spent so much to recruit a son-in-law for the Mohist family. Naturally, there will be corresponding requirements and conditions, which is also a kind of fairness. What''s more, I want them to abide by the most fair household marriage law."


    Han Zheng nodded. Merton''s request was no problem. At present, he was very interested and said, "the most fair. How fair do you want?"


    Merton said: "of course, men and women enjoy the same obligations and rights in marriage."


    Han Zheng couldn''t help looking. As a doctor of law, he naturally knows how much power men have in the marriage law of the Tang Dynasty. If men and women want to enjoy the same rights and obligations, I''m afraid they will greatly weaken men''s power.


    In the Tang Dynasty, men can take concubines, but women can only live together; Men can walk around brothels, while women can only walk through the gate without going out; All property belongs to men. Once women are driven out of their homes, they will certainly be displaced and extremely miserable.


    Men can only rely on women and silently endure all injustice, but they can''t resist, while Mohist women have the capital to resist.


    Han Zheng thought for a moment and felt that he still needed to remind Merton: "Merton, your starting point is good, but the best law also needs to be observed and recognized by the world. If the seemingly fair household marriage law is not recognized by anyone except the Mojia village, I''m afraid it will become an empty talk."


    Once this household marriage law, which greatly weakens men''s power, goes out of Mojia village, it will probably become a piece of waste paper, no one will abide by it, and even won''t get the support of the government.


    "Students have long thought of this, and naturally there will be a way to solve it," Morton said confidently.


    "Well, when do you need it?" Han Zheng stopped persuading and nodded.


    "Tomorrow, at the Mojia village meeting, I will announce the criteria for choosing a son-in-law in Mojia village and the new household marriage law as the village rules." Merton said.


    "That''s the honor of the Legalists!" Han Zheng laughed. Although he was destined to sleep tonight, he was still in high spirits. Once such a law was issued, it was destined to leave a heavy mark in the history books of Legalists.

 Chapter 930

    The annual meeting of Mojia village is a grand meeting of Mojia village. It is also an open meeting. Mojia will invite many people from 100 families to attend as observers.


    There were many young faces on the audience of this year''s Mojia village conference. These were Guanzhong Liangjiazi who came to Mojia village to propose marriage. All of them were invited to attend as observers.


    It is extremely rare for so many good families in Guanzhong to gather together. First, the conditions of Mojia village are too superior. Second, the conditions of Mojia daughters are very good. Most of them have received good education. They know how to be polite, but they can also manage money and run the family. Not to mention that a large part of them have been admitted to women''s medical school. Once the medical problems of marrying their mother-in-law are solved directly, so many people come to propose.


    When these Guanzhong Liangjiazi saw the prosperity of Mojia village, they yearned. They couldn''t help looking at the girls in the waiting boudoirs in Mojia village, constantly looking for the right person, and suddenly a noise interrupted them.


    "Here comes the young master!"


    "Here comes the princess!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the cries of the Mohists, a group of good families in Guanzhong saw a fairy couple of their age coming face to face. They couldn''t help sighing. The Mohists had been famous in Chang''an city a few years ago, and they have done nothing so far.


    Merton and Princess Changle sat in the middle. With a wave of hand, the Mojia village conference officially began.


    With the beginning of the Mojia village conference, the achievements of Mojia village have stunned these good families in the pass. Astronomical figures float in their hearts, reminding them that this is the richest Mojia village in the world. The annual dividend alone is enough for ordinary people to live a poor life.


    "This is the ideal Mohist in your mind?" Li Yun murmured as he listened to the achievements of Mohist village. What really moved him was the huge amount invested by Mohist village in the research and development of Mohist technology, of which the largest R & D investment was the steel cable research and development of Weishui bridge and "in order to regret in the future, I''d better say something in advance." Merton looked around and Lang said.


    Some good family members in Guanzhong were worried. They immediately knew that the conditions of the Mohist school had come. They were also prepared. The Mohist school promised such good conditions. Naturally, there could be no conditions.


    "Since ancient times, Mohism has always practiced monogamy, that is, concubinage is not allowed," Merton said loudly.


    "No concubines?" many good people in Guanzhong were stunned. They were willing to marry a Mohist woman, mostly for the sake of Mohist wealth. Even if the Mohist woman was ugly, as long as they had money, they could take another beautiful concubine, but Merton directly broke their dream.


    "Not only is it not allowed to take concubines, you can''t even stay in brothels, let alone have an affair with other women." Merton said mercilessly.


    Although many good family members in Guanzhong were dissatisfied, none of them showed it. After all, they had not married a Mohist woman and wanted to take a concubine, which could not be justified.


    Merton looked at the crowd and said in a loud voice, "maybe you don''t agree, but do you know that this is the iron law of Mojia village. Not only do you abide by it, but also the children of Mojia. Even me, Merton also abides by it."


    "Wow!"


    Suddenly there was an uproar. Among the dignitaries in Chang''an City, even the rich, there were several people who were not wives and concubines. The Mojia village was the richest in the world, and Merton was even more powerful. He insisted on monogamy. This was a clear stream in Chang''an city. Under the custom of taking concubines when you have money, it was particularly conspicuous in Chang''an city.


    Although it was the second time that Princess Changle heard Merton say so, she still showed pride on her face and looked up at Merton affectionately.


    All the people in Mojia village, two girls like elves turned dark when they heard the speech. They were Ziyi and Gongsun Yue, the founders of the kindergarten.


    "Did you know this long ago?" Gongsun Yuehong looked at the purple way on one side with red eyes.


    Ziyi nodded and said, "this is nature. This is the tradition of Mojia village. No one has ever made an exception."


    "If you know it''s impossible, do you still like him?" Gongsun Yue didn''t understand.


    "Although he treats me like a brother and sister, when he meets such a man, what other men in the world can come into my eyes! You mean them..." Ziyi points to the stupid Guanzhong Liang family, shakes her head and laughs.


    Gongsun Yue couldn''t help but look gloomy and had to admit that what Ziyi said was very correct.


    "What about you?" Ziyi asked.


    Gongsun Yue said with a trace of shame on her face: "When he drew my first portrait, I was already trapped. When I redeemed it from the Jiaosi workshop to restore my good status, although it only let me buy wine, it changed my life. Although I knew I didn''t deserve him, even if I didn''t have a reputation, I just had to be with him all the time. I didn''t expect him to be so unique."


    "This is my young master!" Ziyi said proudly with tears in her eyes.


    "Yes, this is the most perfect him in my heart!" Gongsun Yue said with a heartfelt smile on his face.


    Ask which woman in the world doesn''t dream of a man who can step on Xiangyun to save him. The girl doesn''t want to have a love that can love and never separate all her life, and Merton has done it, although the woman is not them.


    "Worthy of my love!" the second daughter said proudly in her heart. Such Merton is really worthy of their love.

 Chapter 931

    Merton on the stage continued: "of course, in the book of songs, there is also an unswerving love until death: death and life are broad, talk to Zicheng, hold the hand of Zicheng, and go with him; throw me a papaya and repay it with qiongju. It is always good to report the bandits; summer day, winter night. After a hundred years of age, it belongs to him."


    "There is also Shangxie in the Han Dynasty: the mountains have no edges, and heaven and earth unite, but dare to break with you. In addition to love, there is loyalty in marriage. If you can''t even be loyal to your own love, talk about how loyal you are to the Mohist School and how loyal you are to serve the country."


    Merton''s loyalty theory can''t help but make a group of old Mohists nod. It is these excellent qualities that have spread in Mohist village to this day.


    "In addition, Mojia village will issue new village rules for household marriage. Men and women enjoy equal obligations except monogamy."


    "Husband and wife have equal status in their families, have the right to use their own names, have the freedom to live, study and work, have the obligation to bear children, have the obligation to support each other, and have the right to inherit each other''s heritage."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton loudly announced the household marriage law drafted by Han Zheng, and had to admit that Han Zheng was indeed a rare legalist talent. The household marriage law drafted by him overnight was almost the same as that of later generations.


    "Husband and wife have equal status! Brother Mo has integrated the concept of universal love into his marriage." Li Yun raised his head in surprise.


    "The idea is good, but it sounds good. It''s one thing to do. It''s probably just empty talk!" Tian Mou shook his head and said.


    "Before that, both men and women needed the orders of their parents and the words of a matchmaker to get married. With the efforts of Ben Hou and the willingness of both parties, we can have today''s day of free pursuit of love." Merton looked around.


    Merton can be highly sought after by the younger generation. After all, everyone is young and energetic. Naturally, they are reluctant to be arranged by their parents, especially men.


    "Today, with the promulgation of the new village rules, I will add another one after the parents'' order and the matchmaker''s words, and leave freedom." Merton''s voice was like a thunder, which immediately stunned the whole audience.


    "Peace and freedom."


    He Li, that is, divorce in later generations, which is a common behavior in later generations, is extremely rare in Datang. Once a woman is divorced or divorced, it will be regarded as a great humiliation. There is a saying in later generations that there is only widowhood and no divorce. This sentence may be a threat in later generations, but it is the most true portrayal in Datang.


    Women who have been expelled from their homes are called abandoned women. They will be displaced, and even their mother''s family can''t lift their heads. Therefore, even if they have suffered humiliation and abuse, some women still bear it silently and are unwilling to leave.


    "It''s nonsense!" some Confucian people who listened in were furious.


    You know, in this era, people believe that it is better to dismantle ten temples than one marriage, and Merton advocates peace and freedom, but they don''t know how many marriages have been dismantled. Before that, people may think that Merton''s new rules are to protect the calf and why to protect the Mohist women, but they didn''t expect to put forward such outrageous suggestions.


    Immediately, even the people in Mojia village looked at Merton suspiciously, especially Han Zheng. The fairest household marriage law he wrote did not have the paragraph of divorce freedom.


    Looking at the faces of the crowd, Merton explained: "Since the husband and wife are equal, the husband has the right to divorce his wife, and the wife naturally has the right to ask for peace and separation. Of course, the freedom of peace and separation here does not mean that the husband and wife can divorce at will. It means that once both men and women violate monogamy, both men and women can put forward peace and separation methods; or if the husband and wife have different personalities and broken feelings, it is really difficult to continue to live two years later Can put forward and leave. "


    Han Zheng suddenly realized that Merton''s so-called harmony and freedom is a supplement to monogamy. Otherwise, two people who disagree with each other and hate each other are also a kind of pain or punishment for the man''s cheating.


    "At the time of peace and separation, the premarital property of both men and women will be taken away respectively, the income of both men and women after marriage will be divided equally, and the children born and raised will be raised by one half, or one party will pay alimony until the children become adults. After peace and separation, individuals can again seek their own happiness and pursue their own love," Merton added.


    The dowry of the Mohist daughter is very rich. Merton directly defines this dowry as premarital property, which also gives the Mohist woman confidence. As for raising children, the identity of a Mohist woman and the annual dividend are enough to bear, which allows the Mohist woman to avoid unfair treatment after marriage.


    The women in Mojia village were deeply moved. In this era of extremely low status of women, Merton can be said to ensure their interests to the greatest extent.


    However, many good families in Guanzhong changed their faces, which was a humiliation to the men who were generally patriarchal. At present, some men were furious and left the table without looking back.


    Among the women of the Mohist school, big girl, don''t call Zihan now! Suddenly she burst into tears. One of the men who left the table had fallen in love with him at first sight and agreed to get married at the end of the new year. This man usually made a solemn pledge, but he took the initiative to leave. He obviously didn''t want to abide by the rules of the Mohist monogamy. It''s obvious that he was deceived in his daily life.


    Ziyi couldn''t help scolding: "what are you crying for? Recognizing his face now is much better than exposing it after marriage. At that time, you won''t even have a chance to cry."


    "But why is Zhang Lang so heartless!"


    As Merton''s maid, Ziyi has high prestige among the Mohist daughters. Big girl immediately put away her tears. Although she still couldn''t help sobbing, she also understood that what Ziyi said was the truth.


    "Even if the Mohist children dare to love and hate and butcher Zhang dies, we won''t eat pigs with hair." Erhua advised.


    "Even if they don''t want to abide by the rules of monogamy, it can be imagined that they came to Mojia village for the prosperity of Mojia. Where is pure love? Since they enjoy such good conditions of Mojia and are unwilling to abide by the rules formulated by Mojia, there is no such good thing in the world." Gongsun Yue helped.


    Gongsun Yue couldn''t help looking at these girls with envy. They are the happiest women in the world. They were born in Mojia village. Merton took care of everything for them.


    The girls'' minds are naturally simple, but Han Zheng on the podium frowns. Merton''s supplementary household marriage law is more rigorous and complete, but he knows that such a reasonable, sound and fair law can only be effective in Mohist villages,


    If you go out of Mojia village, the law of the Tang Dynasty will not recognize it at all. That is to say, if you get into the government, the fate of Mojia women will not be as good as other women.


    He didn''t know what Merton''s solution was? Is it based on the wealth and reputation of Mohism? Or the identity of Lord Merton and the influence of Princess Changle.


    Tian Mou, a spectator, looked coldly at the good family children with different expressions around him. He was sophisticated and naturally saw through their inner entanglements one by one. Naturally, he also saw the discontent and disguise in the hearts of many men.


    It''s true that any parent in the world doesn''t want his daughter to marry well and live a happy life, but like the book of songs, most beautiful love ends in tragedy. It has become the norm in the world for men to marry and take concubines. It''s obvious that some Mantis stand in the way when mojiazi wants to change the World Customs on his own, as he said just now, This is nothing but empty talk in the end.


    Merton looked at the expressions of all the good sons one by one, smiled and said, "I know you don''t agree with me and think it''s discrimination against you, but you''re not the only one who abides by this village rule. The women in Mojia village also abide by it, and even the men in Mojia village also need to abide by it.


    All the Mohist men listened proudly. It is recognized by the world that Mohist men have abided by monogamy for thousands of years.


    "But to be honest, this village rule is only implemented in Mojia village. I''m afraid no one will recognize it when I leave Mojia village. If I go to the government and Sue the imperial court, I won''t give you a penny?" Merton threw out another fierce material.


    They were surprised and didn''t understand why Merton revealed all his cards.


    Merton said with a sly smile, "so in order to show fairness and make this love more pure, Ben monkey thinks it is necessary to insure the love again."


    Han Zheng suddenly looked up and couldn''t help listening. Is this Merton''s solution.


    "That''s the prenuptial agreement."


    Merton said loudly, since the household marriage village rules of Mojia village are not subject to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, let''s sign this commitment in black and white. Such an agreement is naturally protected by the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 932

    "Prenuptial agreement!"


    All of a sudden, everyone was shocked. Since ancient times, everyone has made an appointment with a marriage certificate. Where have you heard of a prenuptial agreement.


    "The so-called prenuptial agreement can also be understood as a kind of marriage letter, but the marriage letter is the proof of the success of your love, and the prenuptial agreement is the consequence of your violation of this beautiful love." Merton explained.


    The proposal of prenuptial agreement is not that Merton is very avant-garde, but that in this era when men are superior to women, the only thing he can do is to use this seemingly avant-garde, even whimsical prenuptial agreement to find a legal support for the daughter of Mohism. Make the status of Mohist daughters more equal.


    "Wonderful!" Han Zheng couldn''t help but applaud the case. The Mohist village rules he formulated seemed fair, but they were like a piece of waste paper. It was useless to leave the Mohist village. However, Merton used a contract to provide a legal basis for these waste paper village rules.


    "It''s nonsense. Marriage has been a sacred thing since ancient times, but the Mohist school is like doing business and signing contracts. It''s a great trick to slip the world." an old Confucian student in Tsing Yi angrily said in the audience.


    "Marriage book is a kind of contract. In essence, marriage book is no different from this prenuptial agreement," Han Fuzi''s Apprentice answered.


    "How can the marriage letter be confused with this shit contract?" the old Confucian scholar in Qingyi was furious.


    The legalist apprentice retorted, "when you got married, did you say that you held your son''s hand to grow old with your son and made a promise to spend your life together? Do you take a concubine now and have you ever stayed in the brothel?"


    "I..." the old Confucian scholar in Qingyi blushed and said, "of course I haven''t done these things?"


    The legalist apprentice sneered: "since they have not done it, why not sign it. If they have done it, they are to blame. They have voluntarily violated the promise of love, and naturally have to pay a price."


    The old Confucian scholar in Qingyi was tongue tied and couldn''t speak any more.


    To be exact, the prenuptial agreement of Mojia village is fairly fair. It is a supplementary provision to monogamy. If it is not specifically for the sake of the wealth of Mojia, it is not so difficult to accept. After all, Mojia village only gives rich conditions and only requires monogamy. After all, it is the business of rich people to take concubines to brothels, Most ordinary people are also a wife all their life.


    Among the people''s different thoughts, the nine-year meeting of Mojia village in Zhenguan was finally over. Although Mojia village announced the prenuptial agreement, some people who had ghosts in their hearts left in public, many good families still stayed. It''s a kind of honor to be able to get a Mojia woman. With more people going, they will have more opportunities.


    "Big girl, no, Zihan, do you think we can discuss it again?" who ever thought that Zhang Lang, who had left in public, turned back again and held big girl in the village.


    "Zhang Lang! Don''t discuss it. The prenuptial agreement is the young master''s rule and can''t be changed." the big girl, who has grown up, said firmly.


    "But should our feelings be guaranteed by a paper agreement? It''s simply a stain on love." the good son surnamed Zhang said as if he had been insulted.


    "In that case, why don''t you dare to sign a prenuptial agreement? Are you unwilling to abide by monogamy? You don''t want to take another concubine with the wealth of Mojia village?" the big girl looked at Zhang Lang''s handsome face and said painfully. She had already made a secret promise, but the other party disappointed her.


    The good family son said softly, "of course not. It''s not that I don''t want to sign a prenuptial agreement, but this kind of agreement has never existed since ancient times. If I sign it, it''s like signing the alliance under the city. Isn''t it a joke that I can''t lift my head in front of others all my life? Are you willing to marry a loser.


    "I only love you all my life. I swear to God, if I disobey, I''m willing to hit five thunders every day and die..." before Zhang Liangjiazi finished, she was covered by the big girl.


    "Don''t swear, I believe you." the big girl said emotionally.


    Zhang Liangjiazi''s face could not help showing a successful smile and gently hugged Da Niu into his arms. However, before he was proud for too long, Da Niu broke away with force. He said: "Although I believe in you, I believe in you more. The young master led the Mojia village from extreme poverty to today''s rich world. Without the young master, there would be no Mojia village. Someone might harm us in this world, but the young master would never. Since the young master thinks it is necessary to sign a prenuptial agreement, he must sign it. Since you disagree, it is fate between you and me."


    The big girl finished with tears and turned her head to leave.


    Zhang Liangjiazi''s face suddenly froze. He thought his plan had succeeded, but he didn''t expect to fall short in the end. This time, he completely beat the chicken with flying eggs.


    "Don''t go, I love you. I''m willing to sign a prenuptial agreement for you, and I''m willing to do anything for you." the good family son surnamed Zhang was anxious and finally put aside all his little abacus. After all, Daniu is both a Mohist woman and a female doctor. Once married, it will be enough to make him rise to heaven.


    The big girl immediately burst into tears, cried and shook her head and said, "it''s late. Since you left the seat, it''s impossible for us. The Mohist daughter can be infatuated and stupid, but she will never be fooled by others. You don''t have to come back to the Mohist village in the future."


    Immediately, the big girl decided to leave, leaving the good son surnamed Zhang bleak in the wind.


    On one side of the carriage, Li Yun, who saw this scene, couldn''t help sighing: "brother Mo, although this is a good intention, I''m afraid he missed a lot of marriages!"


    Tian Mou on one side hummed coldly, "I don''t want to. There''s a time when this good family regrets."


    "How do you say that?" Li Yun didn''t understand. "Brother Mo''s move is feasible in Mojia village, but it''s not recognized by the secular world. It''s not difficult to remarry on this condition."


    Tian Mou sneered: "you think Mohist women don''t like their husbands and concubines, and women all over the world don''t like it. Today''s story will soon spread all over Chang''an city. What consequences do you think will happen?"


    "Men all oppose, women all agree?" Li Yun thought and smacked his tongue.


    Tian Mou sneered: "don''t forget that these men are also the father of their daughter. Do you want your daughter to be bullied in her mother-in-law''s house? Not to mention that more men only allow state officials to set fire and people to light lights. Naturally, they want three wives and four concubines. If it''s his turn to marry his daughter, it''s another mind."


    Li Yun took a cold breath: "this time, brother Mo suddenly poked a big basket. If women all over the world get married and everyone signs a prenuptial agreement in Mojia village, I''m afraid..."


    Tian Mou nodded heavily. Although his concept was different from that of Mohist village, he also adhered to the Mohist monogamy system. However, Mohists had always adhered to it, but Merton spread this system in a feasible way. Although Datang adhered to monogamy, it was regarded as a romantic behavior to allow concubines and even stay in brothels, This kind of atmosphere is especially popular among scholars. Merton is simply violating the scale of these romantic scholars, uncovering their hypocrisy masks layer by layer, revealing their ugly faces.


    "It is said that brother Mo is a catfish. The chickens and dogs are restless and the undercurrent moves secretly. I was a little suspicious at first. Now it seems that there is no wind in the hole! Brother Mo is rectifying the Mojia village, and it can affect Chang''an City and even the whole world." Li Yun said with a dull face.

 Chapter 933

    With the end of the Mohist village conference, the prenuptial agreement and the Mohist concept of absolute monogamous marriage swept through Chang''an city like a hurricane, which immediately made the whole Chang''an city a mess.


    "Pa!"


    A precious porcelain fell heavily on the ground, but it was only a part of the mess. A lady pointed at the middle-aged man with an angry face and shouted, "you heartless man! How did you promise when you married me? Now the house is full of foxes!"


    The second room was unwilling to show weakness. He also picked up the jade and fell to the ground. He cried, "you can marry me, but you still like the new and hate the old. You married three rooms and four rooms. Now you still want to accept five rooms."


    The three rooms and four rooms on one side had long been contradictory. In the twinkling of an eye, they were fighting together, and the whole mansion was in chaos.


    The middle-aged man said all his good words, and even did not hesitate to give up Wufang, who had already been in the palm of his hand, and promised not to stay in the brothel again. Only then did he finally put out the fire in the backyard.


    "Mojiazi!" said the middle-aged man.


    If it weren''t for the Yao moth made by Mojia Zi in Mojia village, how could he be so unlucky that he had to give up even the fifth lady who was about to get it. Recalling that his young and charming face would never be seen again, the middle-aged man was even more angry.


    "Master, Zhang Jia has come to propose marriage to the eldest lady again!" a servant saw the master get out and hurriedly came to report.


    "Zhang Jia? What does the eldest lady mean?" the middle-aged man frowned.


    "The eldest lady means that it''s all up to the master, but we should sign the prenuptial agreement first. Zhang Lang only marries her and can''t take concubines." the servant''s eyes dodged. The chaos in the house has spread all over the residence just now, which is no less than adding fuel to the fire.


    "It''s nonsense. How can we learn what prenuptial agreements the villagers in Mojia village sign? Can Zhangjia turn the world around?" the middle-aged man was furious.


    "Daddy!" the daughter, who had already hidden aside, couldn''t help crying.


    "Does Dad want his daughter to be like a mother, guarding the empty boudoir alone and weeping at dawn every night?" the eldest lady cried with rain.


    The eldest lady, who happened to calm down one after another in the backyard, heard her daughter''s words and immediately had the trend of outbreak. The middle-aged man immediately patted his thigh and said, "sign, you must sign. The boy of Zhang doesn''t worry at first. Go and tell Zhang that if you don''t sign the prenuptial agreement, you don''t need to mention the marriage."


    "Thank you, father!"


    The eldest lady burst into tears and smiled. She threw herself into her mother''s arms with a shy face. The eldest lady touched her grown-up daughter and said with pity: "daughter, you must be serious about choosing a man, otherwise if you are like a mother, you will only regret it for life."


    The middle-aged man was robbed and stabbed. He was embarrassed and escaped. His resentment against Merton was deeper.


    It happened that Zhang Lang, who was frustrated in Mojia village yesterday, proposed to the eldest lady. Zhang Lang was dumbfounded when he heard the woman''s conditions.


    In terms of conditions, the woman''s conditions are much worse than big girl. However, unexpectedly, the woman also asked to sign a prenuptial agreement and asked not to take concubines. In addition, the lion opened his mouth and asked for a lot of betrothal gifts.


    "Bad son! This time, Zhangjia will be hollowed out by you!" Zhang''s father scolded angrily.


    If Zhang Lang marries a Mohist daughter, there are many benefits besides being able to live in a Mohist village. Unfortunately, Zhang Lang messed it up. Now Zhang Lang has to swallow this bitter fruit. Even Zhangjia has inquired into several families continuously, and all of them are required to make a prenuptial agreement and adhere to the absolute monogamy, which makes Zhang Lang regret. If he knew so, why should he tangle, Just sign the prenuptial agreement.


    The same thing is happening in Chang''an City almost at the same time. In addition to the rich and noble families, ordinary families are also gradually becoming popular. Many men and women who have made an engagement have asked to sign a prenuptial agreement and ask the man not to take concubines after hearing the marriage concept of Mojia village.


    Unmarried people are proud to marry into the Mojia village. Other men may not be reliable, but the Mojia man who abides by monogamy is the best candidate for marriage.


    Driven by this trend, this year''s Spring Festival in Chang''an city is more "lively" than usual. There is only one exception in Chang''an City, which is extremely harmonious, that is, the house.


    "Hahaha, the imperial censor''s office is also making trouble, and the Shangshu''s office has been fighting! Hou''s office.................................." Fang Yiai lay on the corner of the wall, listening to the "lively" scene in the neighborhood, and couldn''t help gloating.


    "What about such a big man? He''s still so ignorant and doesn''t go back to his house." Mrs. Fang grabbed the ear of the house''s love and scolded. These neighbors are all dignitaries and dignitaries. If the scandal at home comes out, it''s OK.


    "I see, mother, let go!" Fang Yiai begged for mercy again and again.


    "This child!" Mrs. Fang shook her head and said with a smile, looking at the love of Fang who hurriedly fled back to her room.


    "What''s the matter? There are so many official affairs for the New Year!" Mrs. Fang walked into the living room and saw that Fang Xuanling had just sent off an official, frowning at the fold in her hand.


    "It''s not the boy Merton. A prenuptial agreement makes the whole Chang''an City restless. It''s not the new year. Five memorials have been sent to me." Fang Xuanling said with a sad face.


    "It''s a joke. What''s wrong with what Merton did? Are they right? How unfair it is to our women." Mrs. Fang immediately turned into a feminist and defended monogamy.


    "Yes, yes, madam said. That''s true, but listen to the neighbors. Which year has passed smoothly." Fang Xuanling pointed to the sharp quarrel from the Hou house on the right with a wry smile.


    Mrs. Fang said angrily, "they deserve it. This is the end of their desire to change. What''s more hateful is that they still laugh at you." Fang Xuanling only married her one wife all his life, and was widely feared by all officials. These have long dissatisfied Mrs. Fang.


    "I don''t care, just let you bear the name of good jealousy." Fang Xuanling looked at his wife and said softly. He has always refused to take a concubine, even the beauty rewarded by his majesty. For this reason, he also attracted jealousy.


    For a long time, their insistence has not been understood by the world. Now, the Mohist concept of marriage finally corrects their names, which makes them feel that they are not alone.


    It turns out that they are not the only ones who believe in love.


    "My husband, you should help Merton this time. There are not many such good children!" I have to say that Merton''s actions are very much to Mrs. Fang''s appetite. I can''t help but make an exception to intercede for Merton.


    Fang Xuanling laughed and said, "it''s my turn to talk. You don''t see whose son-in-law Merton is. The more Merton insists on monogamy, the less he will have anything."


    "Your majesty and queen!" Mrs. Fang''s eyes lit up.


    Fang Xuanling nodded solemnly, and it can be seen from his wisdom that before this, the Mohist concept of marriage was simply out of place in the Tang Dynasty, that is, few people abide by it. Even if ordinary people become rich, I''m afraid the first thing is to take concubines,


    Even if the Mohist village does well, it may not affect the world. However, the emergence of the prenuptial agreement makes it possible to realize the Mohist concept of marriage. With the prenuptial agreement, both men and women will be bound. For a long time, absolute monogamy may not be popular in the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 934

    Every Spring Festival, the palace will gather together, surrounded by children. This year''s banquet in the palace is particularly lively. In addition, several princesses have just been married this year, and the return of the new son-in-law adds a bit of excitement to the palace.


    However, when Merton and Princess Changle arrived together, all eyes focused on them for a moment. In terms of status, that Princess and her son-in-law can''t compare with them.


    "See your father and your mother!" Princess Changle stood up and bowed.


    "Don''t be polite. You''re pregnant and don''t move much." the eldest grandson queen pitied.


    Merton explained: "empress, don''t worry. President Zhang has diagnosed Changle. The fetus is developing well, but normal activities are beneficial."


    Empress Chang sun looked at Merton with satisfaction and said, "you did a good job in the maternal and child hospital!"


    Empress Chang sun has experienced the pain of giving birth to children and the death of concubines in the harem. Far from it, take Princess Gaoyang''s mother, who died because of childbirth, leaving the newly born Princess Gaoyang. Fortunately, with the care of empress Chang sun, she grew up safely.


    Now, the maternity and children''s hospital has long been famous in Chang''an city. For pregnant women who give birth in the maternity and children''s Hospital, the survival rate of their babies is very high. Although it is inevitable that they will die prematurely, there is a compensation of 10000 yuan, which makes them aware of the conscience of the maternity and children''s hospital.


    As a result, most pregnant women in Chang''an city choose to enter the maternity and children''s Hospital for childbirth. Wenpo, who was unwilling to join the maternity and children''s hospital before, is now regretting her green intestines. Rich and noble families go to the maternity and children''s Hospital for production, and their business has plummeted, and they are no longer the grand occasion before. Because of her excellent performance, Zhao wenpo, who took the initiative to join the maternity and children''s Hospital, It has become the first stable mother-in-law of the women''s and children''s Hospital, and its reputation resounds through Chang''an city. It is simply a combination of fame and wealth.


    "My mother doesn''t know. My brother-in-law is not the only one who is good to my sister. Even if my sister is pregnant, my brother-in-law still doesn''t want to take a concubine. He even lets his personal maid leave the Mohist house and let everyone in the whole Mohist village follow suit. The love between my sister and my brother-in-law is really envious to others." Gao Yang said skillfully, with envy on his face, The jealousy of the past is completely invisible.


    In an instant, all the princesses looked at Princess Changle with envious eyes. In terms of status, Changle is the legitimate Princess of the Tang Dynasty. In terms of reputation, Changle is in charge of the Red Cross Society. Reputation resounds throughout the Tang Dynasty. In terms of marriage, the world can no longer find a good husband like the Mexican family.


    The status of the emperor''s son-in-law in the Tang Dynasty is not low. Even some palace maids who marry with the princess take the initiative to serve the princess during pregnancy. Even some princesses can''t restrict the son-in-law at all. Even if they are as wise and powerful as Princess Pingyang, they can''t control Chaishao''s concubinage. In the end, they can only die depressed. There is no son-in-law who takes the initiative to ask monogamy never to take concubinage like Merton.


    Empress Chang sun is in a good mood. It is natural for her daughter to have such a destination.


    "Sister Gao Yang doesn''t have to worry. The eldest grandson is a famous talent in Chang''an city. He has lived in the top five official since he was young. I don''t know how many people he envies when his sister marries the eldest grandson''s house in the future?" Princess Yuzhang, who has just become a bride this year, smiled. She married Tang Shanzhi, the son of Tang Jian, which is also a famous family, but there is still a gap compared with the eldest grandson''s house.


    Princess Gaoyang said with a small mouth, "what''s the use of a good family background? I heard that all the concubines in changsun Chong''s family have been born. My sister and sister Changle are really miserable!"


    Empress Chang sun''s face froze. At the beginning, the marriage between Princess Changle and Chang sun Chong was cancelled because of the marriage of her close relatives. Li Shimin immediately betrothed Princess Gaoyang to Chang sun Chong as compensation. So I owe Princess Gaoyang.


    In addition, empress Chang sun is Chang sun Chong''s aunt. When Princess Gao Yang married, their relationship went further. It was common for rich families in the Tang Dynasty to take concubines first and then marry a wife. Take Li Chengqian for example. Before he married a wife, his eldest son, Li Xiang, had been born. If there was no matter about Mojia village, Chang sun Chong''s concubine gave birth to children, It''s not a big deal in Chang''an city.


    However, with Merton Zhuyu in front, Chang sun Chong''s behavior seemed so unbearable that he was a son-in-law. The gap was too big.


    "Don''t worry about Gao Yang. The empress will certainly speak for you." empress Chang sun can''t hold a word on her face. After all, Gao Yang is also an emperor''s daughter. The emperor''s daughter''s marriage is condescending, and the eldest sun doesn''t say that he has children all night, which makes the royal face a little uneasy.


    "Thank you for supporting the child." Princess Gaoyang said a few words to achieve the purpose of beating changsun Chong. Then she stepped down skillfully. Of course, she also knew that the child was the seed of changsun''s family and would not be affected. However, the child''s mother was not so lucky.


    The little storm soon subsided, and Li Shimin seemed not to care about these little things at all. He was content and teased Princess Jinyang.


    Jinyang princess was teased by Li Shimin and laughed constantly. She quickly broke away from Li Shimin''s arms and ran to Princess Changle and said, "sister, sister, let me show you something good?"


    Princess Changle smiled, hugged Princess Jinyang and said, "Oh, Yuzi, what good things do you have to show your sister!"


    Jinyang Princess proudly said: "naturally, it is the flower house in winter that her brother-in-law said last year. Now she has done it. Even in winter, a hundred flowers still bloom in the flower house."


    "Oh, Yuzi is so powerful." Princess Changle smiled and praised.


    Empress changsun got up and said, "on weekdays, Jinyang is the treasure of the flower house. Now we are finally willing to open up. It''s just that we get together today to enjoy the beautiful scenery of blooming flowers in winter."


    "What my mother said is very true." the princesses said happily.


    As soon as Merton wanted to get up, he heard Li Shimin cough and said, "Merton stays. I have something to tell him."


    Suddenly, the other brides in law looked at Merton with envious eyes. The Mohist son is worthy of marrying the long princess. Only the treatment left by his majesty can see that Jane is in the heart of the emperor.


    However, they didn''t know that Merton immediately smiled bitterly in his heart. It must be bad for Li Shimin to leave him alone.


    Princess Changle got up, looked at Merton, smiled cunningly and turned away. His husband and father are the people he trusts most. They will never make Changle sad together. What else does Princess Changle have to worry about.


    "Do you know what a mess you''ve made? Your memorial of impeachment for the Chinese new year has been filled with my dragon case. You sincerely let me have a bad year, don''t you?" Li Shimin roared.


    The ninth year of Zhenguan can be said to be the most pleasant year for Li Shimin. Originally, he wanted to continue his good luck in Zhenguan for ten years, but he didn''t expect that Merton would destroy his interest on the first day of the new year.


    "Wei Chen didn''t do anything!" father Morton couldn''t touch his head.


    "Didn''t do anything?" Li Shimin laughed angrily. "The prenuptial agreement you worked out directly made more than half of the marriage in Chang''an City Yellow. Every family in Chang''an city is restless. What haven''t you done?"


    Of course, what Li Shimin didn''t say was that even last night he ran into a wall in front of the imperial concubines in the back palace. Naturally, this account should be counted on Merton''s head.


    Merton was stunned. He didn''t expect such a serious chain reaction and such great consequences.


    "Weichen is only implemented in Mojia village,......" Merton said somewhat guilty.


    "As soon as the prenuptial agreement comes out, Chang''an women will follow suit. They would rather tear down ten temples than one marriage. It''s good for you to tear down both temples and marriages." Li Shimin''s anger was badly defeated. When Mohists and Buddhists fought before, many temples suffered. Li Shimin didn''t want to say more about the demolition of marriage. At the beginning, it was exposed that close relatives married in Chang''an City, and then opposed the sale of marriage. Now, another batch has been demolished with absolute monogamy and prenuptial agreement.


    What''s more pitiful is that a Chang''an man was even more unlucky. Merton broke up his engagement three times in a row. It was terrible. He was directly burst out by the imperial censor and stabbed Li Shimin in front.


    "But did Wei Chen do wrong?" Merton asked with a frown.


    Li Shimin choked. Yes, this prenuptial agreement seems outrageous, but who can say that defending firm love is wrong? Not to mention that Merton defended his love with his daughter. He wanted to decide whether Merton would not connive at Merton''s concubinage and make his daughter cry.


    But if he agrees with Merton, isn''t it a mistake for his 72 concubines in the three palaces and six courts? Li Shimin has fallen into a dilemma.


    For a long time, Li Shimin said, "sometimes I think it''s not important to be wrong or right. Three people become tigers, and everyone speaks gold. Sometimes the power of the secular world is stupid and powerful."


    "In any case, Mohist school will insist on the best quality in the world, even if it is destroyed and destroyed." Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin was silent. Looking at Merton''s firm expression, he couldn''t help thinking of his hesitation before the change of Xuanwu Gate and killing his brother and imprisoned father. In the eyes of the world, it was also a great treachery and intolerable thing. Even if he ascended the throne for several years and created such great achievements, he still couldn''t change the impression in the hearts of the people, The root of all this is the inheritance system of the eldest son, which is the same origin as three wives and four concubines.


    "Then I''ll wait and see. The first imperial meeting in Zhenguan''s ten years, I hope you can withstand the public praise of the Manchu Dynasty." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Merton bowed and thanked. If it weren''t for Li Shimin''s advice, he would have made mistakes in his hurry. With these days of preparation, he would be able to deal with it calmly.


    "Go! She has carefully prepared the flower house in Jinyang for a long time, but don''t let her down." Li Shimin took the lead in walking with a dark face.


    In front of Jinyang hall, a huge glass greenhouse rises from the ground. However, even in the cold winter and December outside, the ground is covered with snow. However, the greenhouse is as warm as spring. The outside world is full of leaves, everything withers and yellow, but the greenhouse is full of green and flowers bloom.


    However, what is more charming than flowers is the faces of the princesses. Among the flowers, Princess Changle looked up and saw Li Shimin walking in front with a dark face. Merton followed behind and winked at her playfully. Not only did she smile, but perhaps it was their unique way of getting along with their son-in-law!

 Chapter 935

    "A hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend!"


    After visiting the flower house, Li Shimin sighed at this rare winter spectacle.


    In winter, a hundred flowers wither, but a hundred flowers bloom in the greenhouse. This is a miracle. Usually, if this miracle occurs, it is certain, and the source of all these miracles is ink technology.


    And Mohism is not so? Before that, Mohism had sunk to the bottom of the sea, but Mohist Zi appeared out of thin air, led Mohism to create miracles one after another, and even led the recovery of other hundred schools, and a hundred flowers bloom in the fertile soil of the Tang Dynasty.


    "How lucky he is to be able to reproduce the contention of a hundred schools of thought!" Li Shimin looked at Merton, who laughed with Princess Changle in the flowers, and Li Tai, who heard the news, couldn''t help but flash a trace of excitement.


    "A hundred schools of thought contend."


    Anyone who thinks of that magnificent era can''t help trembling. One by one, the sages put forward their ideas and achieved the words of one family. Various ideas conflict with each other. Wisdom crystals shine like diamonds in the world, and classic works emerge one after another.


    Nowadays, the trend of a hundred schools of thought contending in the Tang Dynasty is more and more obvious. The sudden emergence of Mohism and doctors is the most typical representative. Any emperor who detects this trend during his reign is not ecstatic. Even the most stupid Emperor, as long as there is a hundred schools of thought contending during his reign, he will certainly be heavily colored by history books.


    Not to mention that the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the pre-Qin period is only an idea, and the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty has transformed the idea into practice and brought great benefits.


    This is also the reason why Li Shimin has been silently supporting the Mohist school, and Merton did not disappoint him, bringing him one surprise after another, of course, there is trouble.


    What makes him even more ecstatic is that his son may also become a family, and this sense of participation makes him quite proud.


    Although the flower house is magical, the space is very small after all. They soon visited it again. Only then did they reluctantly come out of it.


    "It''s really a winter spectacle to have such a spectacle in winter!" empress Chang Sun said with great joy.


    "If the mother likes it, she and her son will cultivate flower houses for the mother every winter for her to watch." Princess Jinyang said wisely.


    "Yuzi is so good!" Princess Changle praised.


    Li Shimin looked at the happy family happily and couldn''t help but feel warm in his heart. Now the Tang Dynasty is booming and his family is happy in the harem. Li Shimin felt that God treated him well.


    Suddenly, just out of the greenhouse, empress Chang sun turned pale when the cold wind blew. She coughed and shook her body. Li Shimin hurriedly helped empress Chang sun.


    "Guanyin maidservant, what are you doing?" Li Shimin said in horror.


    Princess Changle hurried forward, carefully examined it, and immediately said, "it should be the mother''s Qi disease. Go and get the medicine quickly!"


    Empress Chang sun often suffers from Qi diseases. She has always been followed by palace maids who are specially responsible for medicine. Immediately, palace maids rushed away.


    "Invite Dr. Sun immediately!" Li Shimin was even more worried and said urgently. Recently, empress Chang sun''s health has not improved.


    Moreover, since the two miracle doctors jointly cured Li Shimin''s foot disease, Li Shimin had considerable trust in the doctor''s medical skills, and immediately took the doctor as the last straw.


    Soon, the medicine was boiled and delivered in the shortest time. After taking the medicine, empress Chang sun was better, but she was still weak and could only lie on her sickbed.


    Merton, who had been on the side, could not help but sink in his heart. According to historical records, empress changsun died in Zhenguan ten years ago. Although doctors have sprung up and medical skills have made great progress, he is still helpless for some difficult and miscellaneous diseases. Take Li Yuan''s stroke, for example, although Li Yuan has lived six months longer than in history under Sun Simiao''s superb medical skills, However, anyone can see that Li Yuan''s time is running out.


    Empress Chang sun''s condition is more complicated. I''m afraid with the existing medical skills, even with the efforts of Sun Simiao and Hua Lao, it can''t be cured.


    Soon Sun Simiao came in a hurry with Mo Wu. Seeing that empress Chang sun''s face did not change, he hurried forward to make a careful diagnosis.


    "Doctor sun, how is the Queen''s condition?" Li Shimin asked quickly after Sun Simiao''s diagnosis.


    "Not optimistic!" Sun Simiao said with an ugly face.


    Li Shimin turned pale and looked hard at the empress Chang sun on the sickbed. Empress Chang sun was his hairy wife. When Li Shimin was crowned king of Qin, empress Chang sun was Princess Qin. Li Shimin ascended the throne as emperor. Empress Chang sun was crowned queen for the first time. They can be said to have deep feelings and great righteousness.


    Although there are seventy-two imperial concubines in three palaces, six courtyards and six courtyards in the palace, Li Shimin spends half of his time in empress Chang sun''s bedroom, which originally seems to anyone that Li Shimin is affectionate enough for Empress Chang sun.


    However, when seeing the empress Chang sun lying in bed seriously ill, his favorite woman may leave him forever, Li Shimin found that he was wrong. Half the time is nothing, even doubling it is not enough.


    The greatest pain in the world is that it is too late to know how to cherish it until it is lost. At this moment, Li Shimin really understands the significance of Merton''s adherence to absolute monogamy. That is the real love in his life.


    This time, he took the initiative to abandon this beautiful love. He couldn''t help recalling what he started to carry this love. It was when he took the initiative to accept concubine Yang in order to appease the Sui Dynasty; In order to win over the dignitaries and consolidate the military group of King Qin''s house, he took the initiative to marry Yin and Wei. With the marriage again and again, the empress Chang sun did not object. In the end, he was used to it. Until later, Yang Jieyu, Xiao Meimei and Zheng Chonghua took the initiative to join the harem.


    Under the magnanimity of empress Chang sun, he enjoyed beauty with ease. However, when he saw the empress Chang sun lying on the sickbed, he found that if he could come back, he would certainly adhere to the absolute monogamy like the Mexican family, and spend his whole life with empress Chang sun.


    Li Shimin''s face was ferocious and said, "I didn''t let the doctors get rid of me by vigorously supporting the doctors. Can''t I cure the queen by gathering the strength of the doctors?"


    Sun Simiao sighed: "since I came to Beijing, I have been studying the condition of empress Chang sun. It''s only a few months to gather the strength of doctors to overcome Qi diseases. Empress Chang sun''s condition suddenly worsened, and the doctors were unprepared!"


    It took several years for doctors to accumulate a lot of treatment experience for the people of the Tang Dynasty to treat bone injuries free of charge. Only in this way can they be sure to cure Li Chengqian''s foot disease. However, empress Chang sun''s Qi disease only focused on the development for a few months, let alone that Qi disease is different from foot disease. It is a number of stubborn diseases that are extremely difficult to cure.


    This time, empress Chang sun was really critically ill.

 Chapter 936

    "Yes, my son is unfilial! My son is only concerned about his foot disease, but he never thought of his mother''s illness. It''s really unfilial!" Li Chengqian, who has not recovered from his leg injury, came with a crutch and repented,


    At that time, the purpose of his support to Mo hospital was to treat his foot disease. Of course, the doctors did not disappoint him and finally cured her foot disease in the shortest time. If he had also asked Mo hospital to develop a method to treat empress Chang sun''s Qi disease for several years, there might be a turnaround.


    Sun Simiao said with a heavy face: "empress Chang sun''s condition is not just a problem of Qi disease. At the same time, she has suffered a great loss of Qi and blood at the time of production. Her body has long been weak. Although she usually insists on exercising Wuqinxi, her body has been in deficit after all, with little effect."


    Empress Chang sun had seven children in total, and each labor would consume her strength. Especially when she finally gave birth to the princess of new town, empress Chang sun''s body was already very weak, which was the reason why empress Chang sun was critically ill.


    Li Shimin''s face stiffened. Naturally, he knew that after the birth of empress Chang sun, his body weakened sharply, which also had a great relationship with him.


    "Can''t doctors have achieved nothing in the past few months?" Li Shimin asked.


    Sun Simiao looked at him and stopped talking.


    "If you have something to say, the queen is already like this. What else can I not accept?" Li Shimin was discouraged and didn''t care.


    Sun Simiao sighed in his heart. Maybe it would be better to say this earlier. At present, his voice said in a low voice: "under the vigorous investigation of doctors, a total of 49 patients with similar conditions to empress Chang sun were found, but he found a very bad thing, that is, this disease will be passed on to future generations."


    "Pass it on to future generations?" Li Shimin immediately felt like a thunderclap. An eldest grandson queen was seriously ill and didn''t let him go. Now she even bothered his children!


    "Tell me more!" Li Shimin said, biting his teeth.


    "Forty nine patients, a total of 35 patients'' offspring have different degrees of Qi diseases, and the men are slightly better. Among them, half of the daughters have not lived more than 20." Sun Simiao said with a sad face. When he learned about this situation, he also felt sad in his heart.


    "Please tell the doctor truthfully how many of them are..." Li Shimin looked sadly at the children around his sickbed, but he couldn''t say anything. He had never been afraid of anything in his life. However, he couldn''t face such bad news now.


    "Others have not been specifically diagnosed, and I dare not confirm it. However, the problems of his Highness the king of Wei and the princess of Jinyang are the most serious." Sun Simiao said bluntly that traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to seeing, hearing, asking and cutting. Although he did not make a diagnosis in person, it can be seen that Li Tai and the princess of Jinyang are in poor physical condition.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but feel a pain in his heart. The two children he loved most had problems with each other, which made him feel embarrassed.


    "The man is strong. Originally, Qi disease has a slight impact on the man. However, his Highness the king of Wei is too fat, so it aggravates this risk. The princess of Jinyang is the most similar to the Queen''s condition, and other princesses should also pay attention to it. Especially after childbirth, she will lose her Qi and blood, for fear of repeating the same mistake." Sun Simiao shook his head and sighed.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but stumble. A empress Chang sun, a king of Wei, Li Tai, and the most beloved Princess of Jinyang. Unexpectedly, the princess Changle who was about to give birth was added. Such a blow was repeated one after another, even if she was as strong as Li Shimin.


    "However, there is no turning point in this matter. Fortunately, this Qi disease was passed on to future generations earlier, and it is not too late to mend it. If it can be prevented in advance and accompanied by the progress of doctors, it may not be able to overcome this disease in the future. Moreover, mohou is a good policy for the eldest princess to set up a maternal and child hospital, which will certainly reduce the blood of Princess Changle to the minimum. Rao is so, at least the child is three years old After that, they can have children again, so as to ensure safety. Moreover, when other princesses marry in the future, they must be adults, preferably after the age of 18. "Sun Simiao Lang said.


    Li Shimin gave Merton a rare look with soft eyes. He didn''t know whether Merton was prescient or inadvertently. Whether he broke the marriage agreement of Princess Changle at the age of 13, raised the marriage age of the woman to 16, and set up a maternal and child hospital to prepare for Changle''s labor, which saved Princess Changle again and again.


    In contrast, his husband and parents are somewhat dwarfed.


    "It''s lucky that doctors can find out the Qi disease in advance and pass it on to future generations." Li Shimin was afraid that if they don''t pay attention to it, the children left by him and the empress will follow suit. If they prevent it in advance and make a comprehensive policy, several princesses and Princesses may not repeat the mistakes.


    In later generations, except Li Zhi, who ascended the throne as emperor, all other children were very short-lived. However, even Li Zhi was weak and ill, and finally had to let Wu Zetian represent the government, which led to Wu Zetian''s accession to the throne.


    "What about the queen mother? Is there no medicine to cure?" Li Chengqian said anxiously.


    "With the current medical skills, it''s really difficult to cure the medicine stone. I can only try my best to maintain it. I''ll prescribe a few more pills for Empress changsun to take for a long time. With the current situation, empress changsun will be fine in a short time. It should last for a period of time." Sun Simiao said helplessly. With Sun Simiao''s eyes, I can see that empress changsun has withered her oil lamp.


    "Hold on for a while!" Li Shimin''s heart sank. He naturally understood Sun Simiao''s meaning. That is, under the current situation, I''m afraid empress Chang sun''s time is running out.


    "Empress mother!" Li Chengqian couldn''t help crying from his heart.


    "Shut up, you are the prince and the eldest son of your mother. How can you panic at this time!" Li Shimin snapped.


    "Yes! Father!" said Li Chengqian, wiping his tears with a determined look.


    "Keep it a secret for the time being so as not to interfere with your mother''s condition." Li Shimin took a deep breath.


    "Yes!" Li Chengqian nodded heavily.


    Li Shimin took a worried look at the eldest sun empress on the sickbed and solemnly saluted Sun Simiao: "everything about the empress''s condition depends on the miracle doctor sun."


    Sun Simiao solemnly said, "I will do my best to treat the empress Chang sun."


    If other imperial doctors were replaced, Li Shimin would certainly give him a death order and save the queen. However, Li Shimin knows that Sun Simiao is the most skilled doctor in the world. Now even Sun Simiao only dares to promise to do his best. I''m afraid this is the fate of empress Chang sun.


    As Sun Simiao was recruited into the palace, empress Chang sun was bedridden. For a while, the news that empress Chang sun was seriously ill soon spread in the upper layer of Chang''an city.

 Chapter 937

    Changsun mansion!


    A woman grabbed the door frame and shouted sadly, "give me back my child! Don''t take my child."


    The woman was still in the month. Despite her weakness, she wanted to recapture her child, but she was held down by several maids and couldn''t move.


    "What are you doing?"


    The eldest grandson rushed to the front, pushed away the maid and hugged the woman in his arms.


    "My husband, they are going to take our children. Hurry, hurry to take our children back." the woman hurriedly urged.


    The eldest sun Chong got up coldly and said proudly, "what does the housekeeper mean? This child is the eldest son of my eldest sun''s house. This is my eldest sun Chong''s child. I don''t see who dares to move!"


    The Chamberlain of changsun''s house drooped his eyelids and said, "young master, we should make it difficult for the old slave. We also act according to the master''s order."


    "Father! How could this be possible?" the eldest son Chong was stunned. Anyway, the child was the eldest son of the eldest son. When he was born, he clearly remembered how happy his father was.


    "Yes, my order!" at the moment, Chang sun Wuji''s dignified voice broke Chang sun Chong''s fantasy.


    "Father, this is your eldest grandson!" Chang sun Chong couldn''t believe looking at the suddenly changed face of Chang sun Wuji.


    The eldest sun Wuji pulled out his old face and said, "my father naturally knows, but this is an order from the palace. Do you think I would like to."


    "The order of the palace, Gaoyang!" the eldest sun frowned. The only thing he thought of was the princess Gaoyang who could target his children and concubines.


    Chang sun Wuji looked like he hated iron and didn''t become steel. He gnashed his teeth and said, "you haven''t married Princess Gaoyang yet, and the children of your concubine have been born. Do you think Gaoyang can be angry?"


    "But the powerful children in Chang''an city are not like this. They take concubines before they get married." Chang sun Chong said in a mess. He said that this is just the normal operation of the powerful children. Everyone else can do it. Why can''t he come here.


    "That''s because other people don''t marry a princess, but you marry a princess. The emperor and daughter are married, and three wives and four concubines are not allowed." the eldest sun Wuji shook his head.


    "But other brides don''t do the same..." the eldest son frowned.


    The eldest sun Wuji shook his head helplessly and said, "if it had been before, there would have been no problem, but haven''t you heard of the monogamy and prenuptial agreement of the Mohist son?"


    "Monogamy! Prenuptial agreement!" Chang sun Chong was stunned. He really didn''t know about it. All the people in Chang sun''s house knew that Chang sun Chong didn''t want to hear anything from the Mo family. Naturally, no one told him that.


    "As a son-in-law, mojiazi can prepare for the construction of the Red Cross Society, a new villa and a maternal and child hospital for Princess Changle. Even if the princess is pregnant, she will never take a concubine and abide by her life. What about you? Apart from sending some gifts to Gaoyang Palace on New Year''s holidays, what did you do at other times? Gaoyang hasn''t come here yet, and your child has been born , you comment yourself. It''s you. What do you think? "Sun Wuji sighed.


    "Mojia Zi!" the eldest sun Chong said with gnashing teeth when he heard the speech. He didn''t want to hear that someone compared him with Mojia Zi, which was a barrier he couldn''t sell in his life. He didn''t expect that Mojia Zi suffered an innocent disaster this time.


    Changsun Wuji shook his head helplessly and said, "you used to feel sorry for yourself and think that the Mohist school took away love. Now you ask yourself, even if you married Changle for no reason, will you really treat Changle like the Mohist school?"


    "Of course." Chang sun Chong said proudly without hesitation. The woman on one side looked dark.


    The eldest sun Wuji sneered and said, "if you remember correctly as a father, your concubine has been brought into the house by you and has been with you for many years when you were engaged to Changle, so you are so affectionate."


    "I...!" Chang sun Chong was speechless, which he could not argue.


    "But this child is your eldest grandson! How can you bear to take him away from your mother because of Gao Yang''s words." Chang sun Chong begged. Chang sun''s house is the first family in the Tang Dynasty. With the status of Chang sun''s house, there is no need to be so afraid of a princess.


    Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "naturally, changsun house will not be afraid of a princess. However, this order was ordered by the queen herself."


    "Aunt!" Chang sun Chong suddenly changed his face. A large part of the power of the Chang Sun family came from the empress Chang sun. If it was the order of the empress Chang sun, I''m afraid the Chang sun house had no confidence to refuse.


    "I don''t believe it. My aunt loves me most. Now I''ll go into the palace and beg her." the eldest sun Chong said reluctantly.


    There was a trace of grief in the eyes of changsun Wuji and said, "don''t go. There has been news from the palace. Yesterday, the queen suddenly became seriously ill and was bedridden. Even the miracle doctor Sun Simiao was helpless. This time, I think the queen of changsun can''t make it. The day of my changsun house is going to change!"


    "The sky is going to change!" Chang sun Chong was struck by lightning. The biggest backer of Chang sun''s house is empress Chang sun. With empress Chang sun, no one can move Chang sun''s house. If empress Chang sun dies, the power of Chang sun''s house will never return to the past.


    "After all, this child is the seed of my eldest son''s family and will be passed on to your second brother, Chang sun Huan. As for this woman, Chang sun''s family will properly place her. After all, she is also the mother of Chang sun''s family. However, you can''t meet her again and wait to marry Princess Gaoyang. My eldest son''s family is about to lose a backer in the palace, so you can''t lose another one." Chang sun Wuji said coldly, Once the empress changsun dies, Princess Gaoyang is the link between their changsun house and the royal family. It is the foundation of the future prosperity of the changsun house. After all, the royal family has repented once. If Princess Gaoyang repents again this time, she will never have the chance to marry the princess for the third time.


    Chang sun Chong looked at the woman he had been with for many years, and then thought about the future of Chang sun''s house. He couldn''t help but close his eyes painfully and said, "everything is up to his father to choose."


    "Young master, you can''t abandon me!" the woman was shocked at the speech and immediately cried for help. She is not as strong and independent as the daughter of the Mohist family. The glory of the whole family is tied to her. Once she is expelled from the changsun mansion, she will come to no good end.


    However, in the future of changsun mansion, no one cares about the plea of a weak woman. Soon, the woman was arranged to get into a carriage and quietly sent out of changsun mansion.


    In addition to the changsun family, other aristocratic families in Chang''an city are also shocked by it. Everyone knows the status of the empress changsun. Once the empress changsun dies, the situation of the relatives in the harem will certainly change, and the situation that has been stable in the court for many years will certainly have twists and turns.


    The Wei family.


    After hearing the news that empress Chang sun was seriously ill, the Wei family was even more ecstatic. Imperial concubine Wei was extremely favored in the palace, and her power was good with the support of the Wei family. As for imperial concubine Yang, who was the royal family of the Sui Dynasty, her chances of becoming king were almost zero. Although imperial concubine Yin was favored, since the power of the Yin family was very weak, she could not compete with the Wei family at all.


    Therefore, among the harems, concubine Wei has the most obvious advantage. Once the empress changsun dies, concubine Wei will certainly become the best candidate for the empress. If concubine Wei can ascend the throne, the Wei family will surely become the first family in Chang''an city.


    Of course, this is only the secret plan of the Wei family. At present, the empress changsun is seriously ill, and no one dares to make small moves at a critical juncture.


    Buddhism.


    In a splendid temple, a kind-hearted monk heard the news that empress Chang sun was seriously ill. He suddenly got up and said in a loud voice, "this is the will of heaven. The time has come for my Buddhist family to prosper."


    The recent situation of Buddhism is very bad. The imperial court issued an ultimatum to restrict Buddhism, and Buddhism gave up the privilege of tax exemption. Coupled with a series of Buddhist disturbances, the believers and income of Buddhism have plummeted. The situation is extremely difficult. If you want to build a wide range of temples, you have no financial resources.


    However, the news that empress Chang sun is seriously ill makes the Buddhists see the hope that they can prosper the Buddhists without spending money. How important the status of empress Chang sun is. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, Li Shimin will not give up. At the moment, the Buddhist Prayer of accumulating blessings is officially in use.

 Chapter 938

    "The Buddhist family wants to pray for the queen!" Chang sun Chong looked at the eminent monk opposite. He was in a bad mood recently. He didn''t want to meet anyone. However, the Buddhist family came from Chang''an eminent monk Huichang abbot, which he couldn''t refuse. The Buddhist family has a great influence in Chang''an Luoyang and has made friends with many dignitaries and dignitaries. Chang sun''s house is no exception.


    "But also!" said Abbot Lang of Huichang, "the empress changsun is the mother of the country. She should have been blessed, but the sky has fallen into disaster. My Buddhist family is willing to chant scriptures day and night to pray for the empress."


    "But why didn''t the abbot write to your Majesty in person? Instead, he came to find me!" the eldest sun Chong didn''t understand.


    Abbot Huichang shook his head and said, "the situation of Buddhism is delicate now. For some reasons, the government and the public have different opinions on Buddhism. If Buddhism rashly writes, it will certainly attract hundreds of opposition and criticism from the government and the public!"


    "The Mohist family!" the eldest sun Chong said, gnashing his teeth. This time, like the Buddhist family, he was suffering from the scourge of the Mohist family, and suddenly felt a common hatred.


    Abbot Huichang nodded and said, "although this matter is the intention of the Buddhist family, it must not be brought up by the Buddhist family. The eldest grandson is the nephew of the empress. It is reasonable to hear that the empress is seriously ill and wants to offer filial piety. In this way, the eldest grandson has not only done his filial piety, but also obtained the friendship of the Buddhist family. It is the best of both worlds."


    Chang sun Chong couldn''t help but move in his heart. The power of Buddhism is not small in Chang''an city. If he can get the help of Buddhism, it won''t be a little good for the Chang Sun family, and this can also please his aunt. If his aunt''s condition improves, he will certainly take the lead. "


    "You want me to write to your majesty?" the eldest son rushed.


    Abbot Huichang shook his head and said, "no, praying for the queen is naturally the best filial piety for children."


    What kind of person Li Shimin is. As long as the Buddhist family comes forward, he will certainly have an insight into the thoughts of the Buddhist family. At this critical juncture, the Buddhist family doesn''t want to offend Li Shimin again.


    "Your Highness!"


    Chang sun Chong is an intelligent man. He immediately knows the intention of the Buddhist family. It turns out that the purpose of the Buddhist family is Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian is now the crown prince. In addition, his foot disease has been cured, so he can certainly ascend the throne as emperor. On the one hand, he can take the opportunity to prosper the Buddhist family and please the next emperor. On the other hand, it is not easy for Li Shimin to refuse when the crown prince comes forward, Buddhism is making a long-term layout!


    "The Buddhist family has such great talents as the abbot, and the day of great prosperity must not be far away!" the eldest sun nodded to answer this matter. Of course, it is not bad for him. It is a rare opportunity for him to make friends with the Buddhist family and the crown prince.


    And for him, it was just the opportunity to compete with Mohist. As we all know, Mohist strongly supported doctors. Now doctors have nothing to do with the condition of empress Chang sun, and it is the time for the Buddhism he recommended to shine.


    "Thank you for your help. I''m leaving!" master Huichang bowed his head and clapped his hands. After that, he turned and left with a silent debate machine.


    Chang sun Chong watched master Huichang and the defense plane leave. He couldn''t wait to get up and said, "go, go to the east palace!"


    "Pray for the mother!" Li Chengqian looked at Chang sun Chong in surprise.


    "Yes, my aunt''s kindness is as great as a mountain. How can I bear to watch my aunt lose weight and lie in the hospital bed? Chong''er is not willing to give up even if there is a glimmer of hope." Chang sun Chong said firmly on his face.


    "Good! It''s not worth your mother''s daily pain!" Li Chengqian also couldn''t help feeling. He and Chang sun Chong were similar in age and had a good relationship in childhood. But at the beginning, he lifted the lid on the marriage of his close relatives and personally demolished the marriage between Chang sun Chong and Princess Changle. The two became estranged. At the moment, when they saw that Chang sun Chong was full of filial piety to the empress Chang sun, their childhood feelings suddenly surged into their hearts.


    "Since ancient times, there have been two forms of praying for blessings and disaster relief. One is amnesty. Now my aunt is seriously ill. If the imperial court amnesty the world, it is the practice of all dynasties to pray for blessings." Chang sun Chong said.


    Li Chengqian nodded. Amnesty is a common thing in the court. Li Shimin''s amnesty of 300 dead prisoners is the best example.


    However, Li Chengqian hesitated. The last time Li Shimin pardoned 300 death row prisoners, there was a lot of criticism from the government and the public. The doctor of law of the Imperial College directly resigned on the spot to protest. It wasn''t long before this. I''m afraid it would be unreasonable to Amnesty the world again.


    "Not to mention that Buddhists are taking action, doctors are also preparing for the condition of empress Chang sun. Now, after Sun Simiao''s superb medical skills, empress Chang sun''s condition has tended to be stable. If the curative effect can be achieved in a short time, there may be miracles.


    In the Mohist hospital, several wards are specially vacated to treat patients with Qi diseases like empress Chang sun. Doctors arrange all these patients to be hospitalized and bear all medical expenses, so as to find a good prescription for treating qi diseases in the shortest time.


    "How is it?" seeing Sun Simiao and Mo Wu coming out, Princess Changle asked anxiously regardless of the fetus in her abdomen.


    Mo Wu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "this time, old sun changed the prescription for these patients, and did not hesitate to use rare medicinal materials, but still had little effect."


    "I let the princess down. In recent months, I have tried all the formulas, but I still can''t find a way to treat Qi diseases." Sun Simiao shook his head and said helplessly.


    Princess Changle suddenly looked disappointed and said helplessly, "is there really no way?"


    Sun Simiao and Mo Wu shook their heads at the same time. For the Qi disease of empress Chang sun, the doctors said they did their best.


    Just when Princess Changle was disappointed, Merton''s voice suddenly said firmly, "there is no hope!"


    In an instant, the three people''s eyes focused on Merton at the same time, and Sun Simiao moved in his heart. It is said that the Mohist son is good at creating miracles. If there is a miracle in the condition of empress Chang sun, I''m afraid it''s not the Mohist son.


    As for Mowu, he is full of confidence in Merton. Merton has led the Mojia village to create such a miracle, that is, it is not uncommon for Mowu to do anything outrageous.


    "Your husband is serious!" Princess Changle couldn''t believe it.


    Merton nodded and said, "there was an event recorded in the close book of Mohist school. There was no alcohol disinfection before. Once injured, it was easy to fester and infect. However, people in one place are often injured, but the wound can heal quickly, and there is almost no infection. That is the tailor''s shop!"


    "Tailor shop! Why?" Princess Changle said strangely. She is also good at female workers. Naturally, she knows that tailor clothes often use scissors, needles and thread, and injuries are inevitable.


    "That''s because the tailor''s shop will use paste. Some paste will be covered with green hair after being put for a long time. Once these tailors are injured, they will put the paste with green hair on the fingers cut by scissors to help the wound heal. Once the wound is coated with green hair paste, there has been almost no infection. Does Dr. Sun know what this means?" Merton took a deep breath and asked Sun Simiao.


    Sun Simiao was too excited to restrain himself and said, "that means we can find a good medicine to cure wound infection."


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "yes! Once we make it into medicine, as long as it is not a fatal injury, we are sure to cure it."


    Mo Wu on one side also brightened his eyes. He remembered that during the western expedition, although he tried his best to treat, many wounded soldiers still died of infection. If he really had this magic medicine, he would be sure to cure more injuries.


    Princess Changle was about to cry and said with a cry: "no matter how good this medicine is, it is only for the treatment of trauma, and what the mother gets is Qi disease!"


    Merton turned his head and comforted: "madam, I don''t know. Doctor sun has learned through the microscope that the reason why the human body is sick is that there are many unclean things entering the body, and the same is true for infection. Once this drug is successfully developed, it can certainly treat countless diseases. It can be said that such magic drugs are comparable to gold."


    "This medicine can cure Qi disease?" Princess Changle couldn''t help but brighten her eyes and said happily.


    Merton shook his head and said, "Qi disease is a congenital genetic disease. There is no medicine to cure."


    Princess Changle''s eyes suddenly dimmed.


    Merton''s words turned: "but doctor sun also said that Qi disease is not fatal. The reason why the queen is seriously ill is that she is plagued with many diseases. If this medicine is developed, she only needs to cure other diseases, leaving only Qi disease and loss of Qi and blood. She can also slowly recuperate."


    Sun Simiao could not help but applaud the case and said, "yes, this is the only good way to treat the empress Chang sun."


    As long as we can cure the other diseases of empress Chang sun, we can leave enough time for doctors. He is fully confident that he can make empress Chang sun better.


    "The empress finally has hope!" Princess Changle couldn''t help laughing through tears.


    "This medicine is only in theory, not very sure, and now it needs to be kept secret." Merton solemnly said that although he knows the efficacy of penicillin in future generations, the technology in this era is limited, and it is also uncertain whether it can be refined. Even if it is refined successfully, he dare not guarantee that there are side effects such as allergy.


    Princess Changle begged eagerly, "it still needs to be done as soon as possible! I''m afraid the queen mother can''t last long!"


    Merton nodded: "in that case, our soldiers are divided into two ways. Doctor sun is responsible for fully treating empress Chang sun and stabilizing empress Chang sun''s condition. Mo Wu gathers the strength of Mohism and is responsible for developing cyan mold."


    "Obey the young master''s orders!" Mo Wu said solemnly.


    "Once this medicine is successful, it must be dragon and Phoenix in the medicine and refined from green hair. We will name it Qinglong plan."


    "Qinglong plan!" Sun Simiao nodded. Once the Qinglong plan is successful, doctors will have drugs to fight diseases for the first time.

 Chapter 939

    With the passage of time, the news that empress Chang sun was seriously ill spread more and more widely, and even spread to the people, which could not help casting a shadow over the Spring Festival of Zhenguan for ten years.


    The hundred officials were indignant and prepared to wait for the first great court meeting to impeach mojiazi''s prenuptial agreement, which caused huge public resentment, but they suddenly got the instruction of Fang Xuanling, the first of the hundred officials, and asked to play the instruction of amnesty for the world and helping people enter the Tao.


    "Pray for the empress! And his Highness the prince took the lead." all officials were enthusiastic when they heard the speech. How can they miss such a politically correct event.


    At present, all officials are burning the midnight oil and writing fast, all ready to show their skills at the first great court meeting.


    Soon, on the tenth day of the first month, as promised, the first great court meeting officially began.


    "See your majesty!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gather!


    "Ladies and gentlemen!" Li Shimin said wearily. Even the eldest grandson queen was seriously ill. However, as an emperor, Li Shimin also had no choice. After all, state affairs were the most important.


    "The plan of the year lies in spring. At the beginning of the Tang new year, the three provinces and six ministries must work diligently..." Li Shimin said loudly, arranging the government in an orderly manner.


    Officials from the three provinces and six ministries took orders one by one. Everyone could see that Li Shimin was a little absent-minded. They obviously accelerated the speed and soon arranged the government properly.


    "If you have something to start, leave the court!" pound screamed quickly.


    "I have a book to play!" Yu Zhining immediately stepped out.


    "Sure!" Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    "The minister wanted to impeach the Mohist school, corrupt customs and advocate prenuptial agreements, which led to civil chaos. However, in ten days, countless people repented, and the Mohist School''s disaster to the people was a great crime." Yu Zhining accused.


    Li Shimin was naturally prepared. He had already reminded Merton that there would be such a robbery. Then Lang said, "Merton, what do you want to say?"


    "Mr. Yu said for a long time, but Mr. Mo didn''t understand. This prenuptial agreement was implemented by Mr. Mo in the Mojia village. It was a matter of the Mojia family. Did Mr. Yu interfere?" Mr. Merton asked in a loud voice.


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly, "I will not interfere in the internal affairs of Mohism, but if social unrest arises because of your Mohism, I will take care of it. I ask your majesty to order the abolition of the prenuptial agreement."


    Merton Lang said, "dare to do it, sir. This prenuptial agreement has violated that law."


    Yu Zhining couldn''t help but delay, and then argued: "although the prenuptial agreement didn''t violate the law of the Tang Dynasty, it violated the customs and led to the destruction of countless marriages. Shouldn''t such crimes be counted on your Mohist family."


    "However, thousands of marriages will be destroyed in Chang''an City in ten days alone. If they continue to spread, more marriages will be destroyed in your hands throughout the country." an imperial historian angrily said. He did enough homework and understood how powerful the destructive power of the prenuptial agreement mentioned by Merton.


    "Yes, what''s more, many men have ruined their marriages three times in a row, all because of you." an official angrily said that his son was one of the victims, and naturally gnashed his teeth at Merton.


    The Manchu officials were in an uproar. Naturally, they knew why Merton ruined his marriage three times, but they didn''t expect so many unlucky people, which made people laugh and laugh.


    Merton was also a little surprised. He couldn''t help but face the shame and said, "I''m deeply ashamed of this matter, but I won''t regret it. What I''ve done is beneficial to the world."


    Whether he opposes the marriage of close relatives or the marriage of buying and selling, Merton is justified, including this prenuptial agreement. It is absolutely just to maintain absolute monogamy.


    "It''s ridiculous to be beneficial to the world!" Yu Zhining snorted coldly.


    "In the last years of the former dynasty, there was chaos and the people were in dire straits. The number of men who died in the war was not counted, leaving a large number of women and children unattended. If everyone adhered to absolute monogamy, how could those women and children who had no power to bind chickens survive? If concubinage was prohibited, how could the population of the imperial court be restored."


    Yu Zhining sneered in his heart. Don''t you Mozi like to argue with facts? Today he will truthfully show the current situation of Datang to see what else you Mozi can say.


    Yu Zhining said that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty agreed one after another. This is indeed the current situation of Datang. If Datang wants to quickly restore the population, it is impossible to prohibit concubinage. Moreover, in the folk, weak women and children alone cannot survive independently and can only depend on men.


    Merton sneered: "This is the current situation during the founding of the Tang Dynasty. It has been nearly 20 years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. The women and children left by the so-called war damaged men are old. This situation does not exist for the new generation of men and women. After the Xiaguan built a women''s and children''s Hospital for the princess, thousands of children have been delivered to Chang''an women and children. According to statistics, the ratio of men and women is five to five, that is, a boy was born, There will be a girl born. If someone has three wives and four concubines, six men will become single. If everyone imitates three wives and four concubines, over time, there are many people who can''t marry a daughter-in-law in Datang. According to statistics, tens of thousands of men around Chang''an alone can''t marry a daughter-in-law. This kind of recommendation has at least millions of singles in the country. These people are alone and have no family ties Time will certainly breed unrest and violate national law. "


    Yu Zhining refuted with facts, while Merton also refuted with facts. The problem of singles is not only in the future. In the era of polygamy, the problem of singles in Datang can not be underestimated. The previous Mojia village is the best example.


    "However, among the cases that have always been judged in the Tang Dynasty, the proportion of single offenders is indeed very high, especially the most ferocious ones, who are mostly alone." Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of justice, lamented.


    "No, whether to commit a crime or not is a criminal''s moral problem, not whether to marry or not. The two can not be confused, nor can they be defined. What we are talking about today is a prenuptial agreement," Yu Zhining refuted.


    Although Yu Yining''s words are reasonable, anyone knows that with family ties, if they commit a crime, they will certainly think twice before they act, which is inevitable.


    Merton solemnly said, "the prenuptial agreement is made to protect the monogamy of the Mohist family. Whether it is monogamy or three wives and four concubines, it is our own choice, and others, even parents, can''t interfere."


    "However, the prenuptial agreement signed by Mojia village has led countless men and women in Chang''an city to follow suit and break the engagement! The public resentment is overwhelming, which is the public opinion! The public opinion can not be violated!" Yu Zhining angrily denounced chaotang with public opinion.


    Merton smiled and said, "is it that these marriage contracts were torn by Mo? It must be that the man wants three wives and four concubines, and the woman wants monogamy. Women all over the world don''t want three wives and four concubines. This is also the public opinion, and the public opinion can''t be violated!"


    Yu Zhining threatened with public opinion, and Merton also refuted with public opinion. They are the tip of a needle against Mai mang.


    "Besides, why can a man marry many women? People are used to it, while women have many men in turn. It is a great sin, so only monogamy is the ultimate way, both ethically and emotionally. I believe that one day, monogamy will prevail in this land." Merton threw his voice.


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly, "it''s ridiculous. Have you ever seen a teapot with four teacups? Have you ever seen a teacup with four teapots?"


    Merton was stunned that he heard the famous teapot theory in the Tang Dynasty.


    "How can the teapot be compared with others? It''s just an excuse for men to have their own desires. Ask the world, the father is willing to let his daughter become someone else''s concubine, live a precarious life, nameless and have no right to inherit the child." Merton looked around and asked.


    Officials could not help but bow their heads with guilty conscience. According to their status, their daughter would be the right wife the most time she got married. If she came out to be a concubine, I''m afraid she would be unable to lift her head in front of officials, but even if her daughter was the right wife, she didn''t want her son-in-law to have three wives and four concubines.


    "This is indeed the same social problem!" Li Shimin said in a deep voice. His voice was not to support Merton, but to prepare for the promotion of the second push in the future. The second push allowed a group of children to share their property equally, and naturally took into account the children of his concubine.


    "Your Majesty, the prenuptial agreement hasn''t existed since ancient times. It''s all due to the birth of the Mohist son. If you don''t stop it, it will certainly disrupt the marriage event in the Tang Dynasty. Please order your majesty to abolish the prenuptial agreement." Yu Zhining shouted in a rapid voice.


    "However, if Mr. Fang didn''t sign the prenuptial agreement, he would still spend his whole life with Mrs. Fang. Whether he is a wife and a concubine or three wives and four concubines depends on his personal integrity. How can he be bound by a contract? It''s a big joke." an imperial censor said proudly.


    In an instant, everyone focused on Fang Xuanling. Then they realized that there was another difference among them, that is, Fang Xuanling, even if he was in a high position and power, still kept his wife for a lifetime.


    "Fang Aiqing, what do you think of this?" Li Shimin thought and said in a loud voice.


    Fang Xuanling was stunned. He didn''t expect to burn the fire on himself. At present, he pondered: "whether monogamy or three wives and four concubines are private affairs and personal choices of the people. The so-called minister thinks it''s better not to interfere, otherwise it''s hard to please."


    Li Shimin was stunned, and then suddenly realized that it was true. If most men support three wives and four concubines and women support monogamy, it is inappropriate for the imperial court to support either party, and the best result is not to interfere.


    Moreover, as Merton said, the Tang Dynasty has passed the era of imbalance between men and women, and the proportion of men and women in the new generation has tended to be balanced. At this time, monogamy is popular. As for wanting three wives and four concubines, the imperial court neither opposes nor supports it, it depends on the ability of men.


    "The prenuptial agreement is a private civil agreement. Both men and women sign it voluntarily. One party is willing to fight and the other party is willing to suffer. There is no need to discuss it!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    If monogamy really prevails, it will solve the problem of singles in the Tang Dynasty, which is also good for the rule of the imperial court. Li Shimin is naturally happy to see its success.


    "Obey your Majesty''s orders!" although Yu Zhining was dissatisfied, he did not pester. After all, they still have more important things to do today.

 Chapter 940

    "I heard that the empress was seriously ill, and even doctor sun was helpless. I don''t know if it could happen?" Fang Xuanling had already been entrusted by Li Chengqian, and his face was frozen.


    Li Shimin nodded sadly and said, "since it has been spread at this time, I won''t hide it. The Queen''s disease is really not optimistic."


    This year, because of empress Chang sun''s illness, Li Shimin did not even hold the annual Palace Banquet, and Sun Simiao''s frequent access to the palace has naturally spread.


    "Queen!" the eldest sun Wuji burst into tears.


    At this time, changsun Wuji is not a forgery. He and empress changsun depend on each other since childhood and grow up together. Naturally, they are deeply affectionate. They can''t help hearing Li Shimin confirm empress changsun''s condition.


    "Don''t be sad about the auxiliary machine. The doctors are still trying their best to treat it. Maybe there will be a turn for the better!" Li Shimin comforted. Even he knew how weak he was.


    Eldest sun Wuji wiped away his tears and apologized: "yes, the old minister lost his attitude. I also know the Queen''s condition. I''m afraid it''s difficult for immortals to cure."


    Yu Zhining said first: "no, the empress is blessed. How can she be a short-lived person? I beg your majesty to pardon the world and pray for the empress, which will certainly make her condition better."


    "I beg your majesty to pardon the world for God''s blessing." all officials also followed me one after another.


    "Amnesty!" Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved. Before, amnesty was opposed by many people, but now it is strongly supported by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.


    He and empress Chang sun are deeply in love. Now doctors are helpless. It''s not impossible to find another way.


    Seeing this, the ministers couldn''t help smiling. They immediately knew that it must be eight or nine times. Then they proposed to help people enter the Tao and overhaul the temple to pray for blessings.


    However, just when everyone thought it was safe, an discordant voice suddenly rang through the hall.


    "No, I think amnesty is absolutely impossible!" Merton suddenly stood out.


    Seeing Merton''s opposition, Yu Zhining was furious and said, "what do you mean, Mo family, don''t you want to see the queen recover?"


    Yu Zhining couldn''t help but buckle a big hat, but Merton was not afraid and said, "the blessing of amnesty is meaningless. Countless emperors in history have used this strategy, but can it really make the patient recover? I don''t think so!"


    "Even if there is a glimmer of hope, we can''t give up!" Yu Zhining said firmly, looking loyal.


    "However, it''s such a good policy, but the Mohist School opposed it alone. I don''t know what your heart is? It''s disloyalty and unfilial." many imperial censors angrily pointed at Merton''s unfilial.


    Even Li Shimin looked at Merton suspiciously. He didn''t understand why Merton objected.


    Merton said proudly, "I''m not that I don''t want the queen to recover. Your majesty wants to pray for the queen. I''m afraid an amnesty will backfire. It won''t bring blessings, but disasters."


    "Why?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "Your Majesty pardoned the world and 300 death row prisoners before. Do you remember that?" Merton asked.


    Li Shimin nodded, which was his most proud thing. He pitied the 300 dead prisoners and allowed them to return after the autumn harvest. As a result, none of the 300 dead prisoners was overdue. Moved, Li Shimin pardoned them all.


    "Did your majesty ever know whether the three hundred death row prisoners, after being pardoned, will make a fresh start, or continue to be on the side of the disaster?" Merton asked.


    "Naturally..." Li Shimin opened his mouth and saw Merton''s expression, which suddenly made him feel bad.


    Merton nodded heavily and said, "Your Majesty, the legalist Han Zheng resigned his doctor of law to specifically track the current situation of the three hundred death row prisoners, but the result is chilling. The three hundred death row prisoners are really grateful by your majesty, and only a few people have changed their faces. There are 10% of the repeat prisoners, and the rest are followed by the bad name of the prisoners who have survived to dominate one side and bully in the countryside."


    "How dare they?" Li Shimin trembled angrily. The amnesty world he was proud of had such a big loophole.


    "Ministry of punishment, is this really true?" Li Shimin suddenly turned his head and looked at Li daozong.


    Li daozong said with a wry smile, "since ancient times, about 30% of prisoners have committed serious crimes after they have been released from prison. As for the 300 death prisoners pardoned by your majesty, many have indeed been re imprisoned and reported to the Ministry of punishment. The rest have not been known."


    "Why didn''t you say it earlier!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Wei Chen confessed!" Li daozong immediately pleaded guilty. Forgiving 300 death row prisoners is Li Shimin''s most proud thing. How dare he break it.


    Merton sighed, "if these prisoners continue to do evil after the amnesty, I''m afraid it''s not a blessing for the queen, but a disaster!"


    The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were silent. Just now they supported the amnesty world, but who could have thought that there would be such serious disadvantages in the amnesty world.


    "It seems that there is only the last way, that is to get people into the Tao, build temples and pray for the Queen''s majesty to eliminate disasters." Fang Xuanling sighed.


    If the Buddhists do this again, they will laugh loudly. Merton has helped them a lot. Now, I''m afraid there''s only one way to pray for the empress changsun.


    "I beg your majesty to help people into the Tao and pray for the queen!"


    When he saw that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty advocated the overhaul of the temple and thought that the empress changsun was 36 years old and needed to issue 3600 degrees, and 3600 monks served the Buddha and prayed for the empress changsun day and night, Merton suddenly turned black.


    "Buddhism!"


    Merton suddenly realized that Buddhism must be behind it. He looked at the leader Li Chengqian and shook his head slightly. Although the matter was carried out in the name of Li Chengqian, Buddhism must have contributed a lot to the response of many officials.


    All pervasive Buddhists really won''t miss the opportunity of empress Chang sun''s serious illness. Merton''s heart involuntarily raised an anger. What he was angry about was not the development of Buddhists. What he was angry about was that Buddhists made an issue about empress Chang sun''s illness. Although empress Chang sun was his mother-in-law, she had always been very good to him. From the bottom of his heart, he had regarded empress Chang sun as his mother.


    In Li Chengqian''s view, his move was for filial piety, but in Merton''s view, it was a threat from the Buddhist family, which was as hateful as the Buddhist family asking for incense money from the poor who were already seriously ill and had a poor family.


    There are only tens of thousands of monks in the Tang Dynasty. This move suddenly increases 3600 monks. Buddhism has a good abacus, but he has calculated the wrong person! Merton''s heart was burning with anger.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking that although the policy of the court was to restrain Buddhism and Taoism, he didn''t want to give up even if there was a chance in the face of the seriously ill empress changsun.


    If it was normal, he must have opened his mouth and agreed. As long as empress Chang sun could get better, 3600 monks would not be regarded by Li Shimin.


    However, Merton mentioned the dispute between divine power and Kingship to him. He also secretly found Hu Shang for exploration many times, and the result made him shudder.


    "Father emperor, mother is in danger. Please accept the child''s filial piety." Li Chengqian prayed.


    Li Shimin sighed in his heart that this time the empress changsun''s disease was not only her, but also his seven children and the empress changsun. He was not a fatuous person. Naturally, he knew that chanting scriptures and praying was just hoping for miracles, not really curing diseases and saving people.


    However, seeing Li Chengqian''s pure filial piety, Li Shimin was soft hearted and was about to open his mouth to answer. Suddenly, he heard Merton''s voice say: "tell your majesty, the Mohists and doctors have jointly launched the green dragon plan and found a good prescription for the treatment of empress Chang sun."


    In an instant, all the civil and military officials were silent, staring at Merton one by one.


    "Seriously!" Li Shimin trembled.


    Merton said positively, "this matter was witnessed by Princess Changle. Naturally, Weichen dare not lie at all. Moreover, it is also related to Princess Changle at this time. How dare Weichen say anything?"


    "Qinglong plan!" Li Shimin got up and walked around uncontrollably. You can see the importance of this prescription by listening to the name alone.


    Merton solemnly said, "if this medicine is successful, it must be the first of a hundred medicines to cure all diseases in the world. If this medicine is ineffective, even the gods in the sky will be completely useless."


    All officials were shocked. If they really had this medicine, wouldn''t they be able to use it if they were ill in the future?


    Li Shimin took a meaningful look at Merton and took a deep breath: "OK, I''ll wait for the good news from the doctor!"


    At present, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty congratulated Li Shimin in unison. The blessing of monk Du advocated by the ministers just now was immediately forgotten by everyone. In front of doctors and Buddhists, everyone knew that as long as there was a glimmer of hope, they would choose to believe in doctors. Only when there was really no medicine to cure, seeking Buddha was just a spiritual sustenance.


    Doctors and Buddhists have a high status.

 Chapter 941

    In Mo mansion,


    Mo Wu and Sun Simiao wore white medical clothes and solemnly pushed open a huge laboratory.


    In the laboratory, glass Petri dishes were covered with dense cyanobacteria. Looking at the large-scale cyanobacteria, Sun Simiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Mo Wu, you did a good job."


    The cyanobacteria on these Petri dishes are the masterpieces of Mo Wu in recent days. With the strong support of Mohists, the cultivation plan of Mo Wu is progressing very smoothly.


    "Sun Lao flatters me! This is just the simplest step. How to use it next is the top priority." Mo Wu said without arrogance and impatience.


    Sun Simiao nodded and said, "don''t worry, let me see what''s special about this fungus!"


    Now they picked up the magnifying glass and almost came up to observe the mold. Normally, even ignorant rural women would not touch it. However, they regarded it as a treasure in front of them. They carefully observed the growth state of Penicillium, or took out some samples and looked under the microscope.


    "The assumption of Mo Hou was correct. The green dragon fungus was really strong. It directly swallowed other molds and killed all the bacteria wherever it went." Sun Simiao looked at the situation in the microscope and said excitedly. Qinglong fungus is the name given by doctors for cyanobacteria, which coincides with Qinglong plan.


    Generally speaking, as long as the temperature is suitable, the mold grows very fast and there are many kinds. However, almost all Petri dishes grow green dragon fungi. Even if other molds grow unintentionally, they will be defeated by cyanobacteria one by one and gradually occupied.


    Mo Wu nodded proudly. He had no doubt about what Merton said. Since the young master said he could succeed, he would succeed. Even if he failed, he didn''t do well.


    "Next, the most important task for doctors is to prove that the mold is useful to the human body." Sun Simiao repressed his excitement and took a deep breath into his airway.


    Mo Wu nodded. They looked at each other and said, "tailor shop!"


    "Mr. Sun doesn''t know. There are Mohist tailor shops. Aunt Xu of the Mohist house is a famous tailor in Chang''an city. Her ink clothes are sought after by Chang''an, and she is the largest tailor shop in Chang''an city." Mo Wulang said.


    Sun Simiao nodded and said, "how can I know that the clothes and masks of doctors come from Xu everyone."


    "I''m sure aunt Xu won''t let old sun go home disappointed!" Mo Wulang said.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Xu''s ready-made clothes shop, when Aunt Xu saw Mo Wu coming in, she couldn''t help smiling and said, "it''s Xiao Wu. Why do you have time to come to Aunt Xu today? Do you want to add some new clothes? If you need anything, just say it. Aunt Xu, I''m sure you''re satisfied."


    Aunt Xu used to live in Mo mansion until after Merton''s wedding, she and Xu Jie bought a house in Chang''an City and moved out. She knew Mo Wu very well on weekdays.


    Mo Wu said with a smile, "aunt Xu is polite. Xiao Wu came with doctor sun today. He has something to do."


    "Doctor sun!" aunt Xu was surprised when she saw Sun Simiao beside Mo Wu. How could she not know Sun Simiao''s name.


    "I don''t know if doctor sun urged that group of doctors'' clothes. It''s only a few years later, the ready-made clothes shop is catching up with the goods, and it won''t be long before it can be delivered to Mo hospital." aunt Xu hurried.


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "I can trust Mrs. Xu''s reputation. I came here today because I heard that there is a secret recipe in the ready-made clothes shop that can quickly treat trauma. Please give me your advice."


    Aunt Xu was surprised and said, "doctor sun is really well-informed, but this is only folk earth. How can he enter doctor sun''s magic eye?"


    Sun Simiao solemnly said, "folk earthwork also has miraculous effects. I have widely collected folk miraculous prescriptions before, but there are many miraculous effects."


    Aunt Xu said bluntly, "it''s no secret. All the ready-made clothes shops in Chang''an city use it. Since doctor sun wants to see it, follow me."


    Under the leadership of aunt Xu, they came to a small jar of paste. It was obvious that the jar of paste had been put for a long time, and it was covered with Penicillium.


    Sun Simiao skillfully took a magnifying glass and looked carefully. He found that the Penicillium here was the same as that cultivated by Mo Wu in the Petri dish.


    "These pastes are used by ordinary clothing shops. However, the clothes shops often use scissors and needles, which will inevitably cause injuries and easily affect their work. However, as long as they are coated with the green hair on these pastes, they will soon recover. Over time, each clothing shop will leave a small jar of paste to make it moldy and green hair for the injured female workers to treat the wounds." Aunt Xu explained.


    Sun Simiao nodded. He had already heard Merton say it.


    "I don''t know how to use it after being injured?" Sun Simiao asked humbly.


    "Ma Ma, your hand has just been hurt. Come and show it to doctor sun!" aunt Xu stretched out her hand and saw a middle-aged woman get up and come near.


    Mo Wu found that there was a long cut in Ma''s left hand, which was obviously drawn by scissors! I saw that Mahalanobis skillfully cut off some of the Penicillium with scissors, carefully apply it to the wound, and then find a clean cloth to wrap it skillfully.


    "Is it so simple?" Sun Simiao said strangely.


    Aunt Xu nodded and said, "it''s just folk earth. Naturally, there''s nothing strange, but the effect is good."


    Aunt Xu said, reaching out again and pointing out the names of several women workers. She saw that these women workers had one thing in common, that is, they had been injured recently.


    All the female workers untied the wounds one by one, but found that the wounds of several people recovered well, and there was no infection.


    "It''s nothing? I accidentally cut a deep hole in my hand before, and didn''t go to the hospital at all. It was all cured by these green hairs." Ma didn''t care, and then stretched out his hand to let Sun Simiao see her ferocious wound.


    Mo Wu took a breath to cool himself. Based on his experience in treating trauma, such wounds must be sutured and disinfected with alcohol immediately, otherwise the risk of infection is great. However, Ma Ma cured himself with these cyanobacteria.


    Sun Simiao could not help but flash a trace of excitement in his eyes. The immediate examples proved that Qinglong fungus was indeed effective, and the effect was very remarkable.


    "But there are exceptions. After a female worker was injured, the external application of green hair became more serious, and the red spots all over the body disappeared after a long time." aunt Xu frowned.


    "What else?" Sun Simiao asked solemnly.


    "That''s her affectation. We don''t have anything, but she has something?" Ma said carelessly.


    "Is she alone, or are there other examples!" Sun Simiao asked.


    "Just two or three people! We use the others like this. There''s nothing at all!" Ma said proudly.


    Mo Wu said in a low voice: "old sun, although there are risks, it''s not a worry."


    Compared with the benefits of green dragon fungus, only some ordinary people do not adapt, which is enough to impress them.


    "There is no perfect medicine in the world!" Sun Simiao sighed, but Sun Simiao kept this phenomenon in mind. If the eldest Sun Queen doesn''t adapt to the green dragon fungus, she may be powerless for a long time.


    "But these are all external injuries. You only need external application, and Qi disease is internal medicine. What should we do?" Mo Wu frowned.


    "Then use it inside!" Sun Simiao cut the nail and cut the railway.


    "For internal use." Mo Wu was silent and ate these cyan molds into his stomach, which made Mo Wu can''t accept it. You know, the reason why the human body gets sick is because he eats unclean things.


    "Since the green dragon fungus can be applied to the wound, it proves that it is harmless to the human body. As long as it is not the minority, I believe it will be all right." Sun Simiao analyzed.


    "I''m afraid it''s the only way." Mo Wu nodded solemnly, regardless of the most important thing at the moment, he refined the medicine as soon as possible.


    In the Mohist laboratory, Mo Wu solemnly took out a detailed process of making penicillin by local method from the pocket of ink clothes. In order to curb the expansion of Buddhism, Merton took the initiative to inform them of the method of making penicillin, because he knew that they would be left with half a year at most.


    "How did the young master know this method?" Mo Wu had endless doubts, but he had absolute trust in Merton. Although he studied medicine, he was a member of the Mohist school


    If the Qinglong plan is successful, the Qinglong real medicine refined by Qinglong fungus can naturally be used by doctors. However, the method of making Qinglong real medicine needs to stay in Mohist school, just like ink medicine, and this will be a special killer mace of Mohist school.


    "OK, I finally succeeded!" Mo Wu, with a disheveled and dirty face, suddenly rushed out of the laboratory and shouted. Mo Wu has never been so sloppy since Mojia village became rich, especially after he became a doctor. However, at the moment, he didn''t care and put all his mind into it.


    For ten days, Mo Wu has been immersing himself in the experiment. Fortunately, everything has not been wasted. With Merton''s guidance, Mo Wu has made great progress and finally successfully refined Qinglong real medicine, that is, the most common penicillin in future generations.


    "Seriously?" Princess Changle said excitedly when she heard the news. If Mo Wu refined Qinglong real medicine, wouldn''t it mean that her mother would be saved.


    "Madam Hui, this medicine has indeed been refined." Mo Wu proudly said in a tube of potion.


    Princess Changle couldn''t wait and said, "come on, send it to the palace immediately!"


    If you take the medicine earlier, your mother''s illness will surely recover one day earlier. As a child, Princess Changle naturally hopes that her mother will get better as soon as possible.


    "Don''t worry, madam!" Merton appeased Princess Changle. "This medicine has just come out, and the drug effect is unknown. Now it''s not time to take it for the queen."


    Princess Changle calmed down slowly from anxiety and nodded solemnly. Now the empress changsun can no longer use the wrong medicine, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.


    "Go to Mo hospital to test the medicine first and see the specific curative effect!" Murton said in a deep voice.


    "Yes, young master!" Mo Wu answered, turned back, took out five reagents and immediately drove to Mo hospital.


    "Mohist green dragon medicine has been refined!" as Mo Wu drove away to Mo hospital, the news spread like wildfire.

 Chapter 942

    Since Merton publicly announced the green dragon plan in the court hall, every move of the Mohist house has been watched by everyone, including Mo Wu and Sun Simiao. Soon, the news that the female workers of the ready-made clothes shop used green dragon fungus to treat trauma spread all over the Tang Dynasty, which added some evidence to the real green dragon medicine of the Mohist school. What''s more, it spread far and wide, Directly transfer the Qinglong real medicine into a divine medicine that can bring the dead back to life.


    "Qinglong fungus!"


    "Qinglong real medicine!"


    Countless rich families and nobles can''t help looking forward to it. If the Qinglong real medicine is really effective, it''s like they have an extra life in the future. After all, no one dares to say that they can''t use it in the future.


    However, there is one place that can''t be happy, that is Buddhism!


    "Master Hui, the real medicine of Mohist green dragon has been successfully developed!" the defense machine reported in Huichang temple.


    Suddenly, the whole Huichang temple was silent. The abbot of Huichang couldn''t help muttering: "green dragon real medicine, is there such a divine medicine in this world that can bring people back to life."


    The debater shook his head and said firmly, "I don''t believe it. If there are such miracles in the world, it must be the Buddha county magistrate. How can mortals master such artifacts."


    Abbot Huichang showed a sneer and said, "yes, I don''t believe there will be this medicine in the world. Mohist Zi has embarrassed Buddhism again and again and has bad things for Buddhism. This time, if you can''t cure the queen, you will fall out of favor in front of your majesty. When Mohist Zi returns the result."


    Although the policy of saving Buddha put forward by Merton is beneficial to Buddhists, it has infringed on the interests of many temples after all. Not all monks understand Merton''s behavior. This time, Huichang Temple took the initiative to make an article by taking advantage of the serious illness of empress changsun, but it is not assured that Buddhists are limited and wants to take the opportunity to show the grand occasion of Buddhists in the past.


    In the palace, Li Shimin finished his business and was chatting with the weak empress changsun. Li Chengqian was accompanying him!


    "Qian''er, do you know what''s wrong this time?" empress Chang sun asked, still dignified, even though she was weak.


    Li Chengqian was ashamed and said, "it''s all my fault that the child made up his own mind and wanted an amnesty to pray for his mother. I didn''t expect that it would almost lead to great disaster."


    Empress Chang sun shook her head and said: "It''s not impossible to grant amnesty to the world and pray for blessings, or even help people to enter the Tao. However, it''s different now. Now doctors are booming. It''s the only way for ordinary people to recover. The queen mother, as the queen, is an example in the world. If you hope to pray for blessings from the illusory Buddhism, wouldn''t you not ask the heaven and the ghosts and gods? If people all over the world Taking mother as an example, is it not misleading for the world to burn incense and worship Buddha when she is ill? Worshiping Buddha and praying for ordinary people can be used, so only the empress mother can''t use it, even the royal family can''t use it! "


    Chengqian was shocked and looked at his mother in surprise.


    "But there is nothing doctors can do about the mother''s illness. There is no other good recipe!" Li Chengqian said reluctantly.


    Empress Chang Sun said frankly, "if you can''t even talk to doctors, what''s the use of holding Buddha''s feet temporarily? Take your foot disease for example, do you really think burning incense and worshipping Buddha can make you recover?"


    Li Chengqian couldn''t help staying there.


    "Even if the mother''s illness burns incense and worships Buddha, will your sister burn incense and worships Buddha in the future?" asked the eldest Sun Queen.


    Li Chengqian could not help looking at Li Shimin with a clever and surprised face. Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said, "your mother has guessed!"


    "As like as two peas in my childhood, how can I not know that she is sick and sick of her mother?"


    Li Chengqian realized that empress Chang sun only guessed Princess Jinyang, but she didn''t know that their brothers and sisters had inheritance.


    "It''s a great taboo to hide the disease and avoid the doctor. Even if the doctor can''t cure my condition this time, your majesty should not be angry with the doctor. As long as the doctor is given enough time to cure Jinyang, I will smile if I have a spirit underground." empress Chang sun begged.


    She doesn''t care about her life and death, but she can''t let go of the lovely Jinyang princess. She knows that the only way to save Jinyang princess is a doctor, not a Buddhist.


    Li Shimin hurriedly comforted, "don''t worry, Guanyin maidservant. Mohists and doctors are already refining Qinglong real medicine. As long as Guanyin maidservant insists again, the doctors can certainly make miraculous medicine."


    When empress changsun heard of Merton, she couldn''t help smiling and said, "Merton is a good child. It''s very reassuring to give Changle to him."


    To a large extent, her illness was caused by the loss of Qi and blood during childbirth, and Merton set up a maternal and child hospital for the production of Princess Changle, which can be said to be in the middle of the soft heart of empress changsun. If she had this condition at the beginning, I''m afraid her body would not be so deficient.


    "Merton is very loose. If he doesn''t give him color, he won''t help. I''ll urge him to develop the medicine as soon as possible." Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said, why didn''t the boy prepare in advance for such a good magic medicine? It was proposed at such a critical moment.


    The eldest sun empress looked at Li Shimin tearfully. She naturally knew the mode of getting along with Weng''s son-in-law. Then she waved her hand and said, "Merton has a heart. It took several years for the doctor to cure gan''er''s foot disease. How can the stubborn diseases of the palace be cured so quickly? As long as this medicine can be used in Jinyang, the palace will be comforted all his life."


    Li Shimin and Li Chengqian had to be advised again. Suddenly, pound rushed into the hall with a happy face and threw himself on the ground. He said happily, "tell your majesty and queen that the Mohist school has refined the real green dragon medicine and is going to the Mohist hospital to test the medicine."


    "Good! Good! Guanyin maid is saved!" Li Shimin was so excited that he couldn''t restrain himself and suddenly began to say.


    "Brother Mo!" Li Chengqian couldn''t help but be excited. He was angry that Merton destroyed him again and again to pray for the eldest grandson empress. At the moment, when he heard that the Mohist school had refined the real green dragon medicine, his original dissatisfaction had already disappeared. At the moment, he was only very happy.


    Even empress Chang sun felt a blush on her face when she heard the news. In fact, pound came to report it, officially inspired by Li Shimin. He knew how valuable an exciting news was for a patient. Now it seems that the effect is really good.


    "Well, from now on, you will always pay attention to the drug test of doctors, and report to me in detail no matter what news!" Li Shimin said urgently.


    "Yes!" said pound proudly.


    Suddenly, Li Shimin felt that empress Chang sun quietly pulled his skirt. Then he took a deep breath, suppressed his impatience, and said in a slow voice: "tell Merton in person and tell him whether this medicine is effective or not, I won''t blame him and the doctor."


    "Your Majesty is kind!" pound took orders and hurried away without delay.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" empress Chang Sun said happily. She just reminded Li Shimin that although she didn''t say a word, Li Shimin perfectly understood her meaning.


    Li Shimin said with relief: "Guanyin maid is at ease to recover from illness. Not only do you believe in Merton, but I also believe in him. What Merton has done for so many years has never failed. This time I believe he will not disappoint me."


    "Certainly not!" Li Shimin added again.

 Chapter 943

    In Mexico hospital.


    When pound arrived, he saw Merton and Princess Changle waiting outside the ward.


    "Father Pang!" Merton said.


    "The trial has begun?" pound asked solemnly.


    Merton shook his head and pointed to the disputing Mo Wu and Sun Simiao with a bitter smile: "they are competing to test the medicine first."


    "This is the hope of the doctor''s future. I decided to test the medicine by myself." Sun Simiao firmly said. Naturally, from his eyes, he can see how much effect this medicine will have if it can be developed. It is not only the matter of empress Chang sun, but also the gospel of the whole world, but also the opportunity for the doctor''s great prosperity.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "no, old sun is the key period for the Queen''s diagnosis and treatment. There can''t be any mistakes. It''s better for the boy to test the medicine!"


    "I''m old, you''re still young, and there''s a bright future!" Mo Wu said firmly.


    Pound immediately said, "let me come!"


    As a close eunuch of Li Shimin, it is common for him to test poison for Li Shimin. At the moment, he is naturally willing to take risks for the sake of empress Chang sun.


    "No!" Sun Simiao and Mo Wu glared at pound at the same time. This is the responsibility of doctors. Naturally, they will not allow others to test the medicine.


    "Let Mo Wu test the medicine!" Merton said.


    Sun Simiao''s position is extremely important. He is a living sign of doctors. Coupled with his high age, he can no longer take risks. Moreover, he naturally knows that penicillin is risky, but as long as it is used properly, it will not hurt.


    Mo Wu solemnly picked up a bottle of refined penicillin, his eyes were firm, and opened it with a little force.


    "For the sake of doctors!" Mo Wu secretly cheered himself up and prepared to bite his teeth and swallow it.


    Sun Simiao couldn''t help laughing and stopped him, but said, "if you test the medicine like you, how many lives will you take in."


    "Don''t you need to take it orally?" Mo Wu wondered.


    Sun Simiao jokingly said: "it needs to be taken orally, but it also needs to make some preparations. Since the female worker said that some people will have adverse reactions to Qinglong fungi, you can make a wound on yourself and test it first to see if you are red and swollen. If you have nothing to do, it''s not too late to take the next step."


    Merton nodded. There was no reason why Sun Simiao lived such a long life. This caution alone was enough to avoid many unnecessary risks.


    Mo Wu suddenly said, "old sun is clever!"


    Sun Simiao smiled and said, "you think I haven''t tried medicine. I would try medicine when I went to the mountain to collect medicine. Even if your wound is OK, you can''t test so many green dragon fungi. Take a little first. If it''s OK, gradually increase the dose. Like you, Shennong will revive. You can''t guarantee your life."


    Mo Wu couldn''t help Hao Ran. Then he found the scissors and made a cut on his arm. Then he applied a little liquid in the bottle to the wound, quiet and so on.


    Seeing this, Sun Simiao nodded with satisfaction. Mo Wu is indeed a material that can be made. He is a doctor. Naturally, he can see that the wound drawn by Mo Wu is not shallow, but there is little bleeding. He didn''t draw it on his hand because he won''t affect his work. It''s inconvenient to see it on his legs. Only his arm is the most suitable.


    "That''s the real green dragon medicine?" pound shrunk his eyes. The magic green dragon medicine passed from Chang''an City, which has the function of bringing the dead back to life, is actually a small screen of colorless and transparent potion, and there is nothing strange.


    Merton could see Pound''s mind naturally, and then said with a bitter smile: "this is a doctor, but there is no immortal prescription. Rao is so. This bottle of potion is already the highest level of Mohist and doctor."


    Sun Simiao solemnly nodded his head. The world knows that doctors have a trend of prosperity now, and it''s time to go their separate ways from Mohism. However, both Sun Simiao and Huayuan know that doctors really can''t do without Mohism''s ink technology, and the hope of Mohism''s prosperity lies not in him and Huayuan, but in Mo Wu, who integrates Mohism and doctors, The green dragon medicine in front of us is the best proof.


    Soon a quarter of an hour passed. Mo Wu took off the bandage and looked carefully at the wound on his arm. There was nothing unusual. He was very relieved.


    "Next, take it orally!" Mo Wu saw that it was OK and poured out a little liquid medicine to take it.


    "Wait a minute!" said pound suddenly.


    "Father Pang has any instructions?" Mo Wu stopped and wondered.


    Pound shook his head and said, "I don''t have anything important, but the condition of empress Chang sun can''t be delayed. Since Dr. Mo Wu has confirmed nothing in the first step of the experiment, if you let those patients with Qi disease do the same, in this way, Dr. Mo Wu will do it first and the patients with Qi disease will follow, which will certainly save a lot of time."


    He came on behalf of the royal family at the moment. Naturally, he knew how urgent Li Shimin was. The sooner the drug test was successful, the empress changsun could recover one day earlier. Pound naturally couldn''t wait.


    Sun Simiao could not help shaking his head and said, "but if the experiment of this drug has not been completed, how can those patients be willing to test the drug? This does not agree with the concept of doctors."


    Pound said with a smile, "it''s their honor to test the medicine for the queen. How can doctor sun know that these patients don''t want to."


    At that moment, pound got up and came to the side ward. He walked into the ward without taboo. Lang said: "The miscellaneous family comes from the palace. The reason why you can come to Mo hospital for free treatment is that you are the same as the empress''s disease. Now Dr. Sun has developed a new drug, which can cure you. The number is limited, and Dr. Mo five took the lead in testing the medicine. Whether you succeed or not, you have a reward! I don''t know if anyone is willing."


    "Reward Baiguan!" suddenly, a group of people suffering from Qi diseases were restless. Most of them were seriously ill and had already consumed all their family resources. If they could test the medicine for the queen, they could recover if they succeeded. If they failed, there was enough money to support their family.


    "I''m willing, but I didn''t expect that I was lucky enough to test the medicine for the empress. It''s really my honor." a middle-aged woman with a sallow face got up and said, empress changsun is famous all over the world and won the hearts of people all over the world. She was the first to respond when she heard that she could test the medicine for Empress changsun.


    "Yes, we are suffering from a terminal disease. We will die sooner or later. It''s better to fight!" a woman got up and said. She was already in pain. Whether she was cured or not, it was a relief.


    "This is a precious medicine for Empress Chang sun. It''s our honor to use it on us."


    "A hundred dollars is enough to buy my life."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Women and children suffering from Qi diseases have different thoughts, and admire the reputation of empress Chang sun. Some want to get rid of it early, others want to fight, and some are moved by money. Many stand up and agree to test the medicine by themselves.


    Of course, there are also people who are timid and cherish their lives and are unwilling to take the lead in testing drugs.


    Pound nodded with satisfaction, then nodded several women of the same age as the eldest grandson queen, and said to the rest of the humanity who agreed to the test: "you are all loyal people, and the court will naturally reward you. Once the test is successful, the court will give priority to your treatment until you recover."


    "Thank you, father-in-law!" the rest of the women who agreed to the test were overjoyed and knew that their choice was not wrong, but the people who had been timid and cherished their lives regretted their green intestines. The magic medicine itself was very limited, and I''m afraid they couldn''t turn to them in the end.


    Mo Wu and Sun Simiao, who saw this scene outside the ward, were silent. They could not blame anyone for their actions. After all, it was their voluntary choice.


    Pound led five women who agreed to the test out, bowed to Mo Wu and said, "doctor Mo Wu, you can start."


    Mo Wu also knew that this was the fastest way. He nodded, raised the wound on his hand and motioned to the five women: "the first step is to test whether your body conflicts with this medicine with the wound."


    The women nodded obediently, stretched out their arms and asked Mo Wu to scratch the wound. After that, a doctor would smear the liquid in the reagent on the patient''s wound and wrap it carefully.


    Sun Simiao took the medical record and made a detailed record. This is an extremely rare experiment. Naturally, there can be no loss. "


    After the five women bandaged up, Mo Wu saw the few remaining potions, took them up and drank them in one gulp. When pound saw the empty bottle mouth, he couldn''t help feeling distressed and said, "such a precious potion, only a few openings used a bottle."


    Merton explained: "Grandpa Pang doesn''t know. To smear the wound with this medicine not only depends on whether the patient conflicts with this medicine, but also depends on the effect of this medicine on wound healing and the observation of infection. You should know that this medicine is also a good medicine for treating trauma." Merton explained.


    "Trauma!" pound was stunned, but he remembered that the source of the green dragon plan came from the tailor''s shop, so he held his doubts and waited patiently.


    A moment later, under the intense attention of the public, Mo Wu was safe and sound. Merton was relieved. Although he had the experience of later generations, no one could guarantee that the technology at this time could be achieved.


    Seeing this, Sun Simiao got up to check the wounds of the five women who tested the medicine. He saw that none of the four were abnormal. When the fifth woman was ill, he saw that the wounds on her arms had begun to be red and swollen.


    "When did it start!" Sun Simiao said in a deep voice. There was such a strong reaction that the patient could not detect it.


    "It''s itchy since I put it on!" the woman said with a guilty heart. She didn''t dare to say anything in order to survive. She wanted to hide it, but she didn''t expect it to become more and more serious.


    "What''s going on?" pound asked anxiously.


    Merton sighed slightly and said, "this person''s body conflicts with this medicine. For others, this medicine is a divine medicine. For her, this medicine is comparable to highly toxic. If you take it forcibly, you will only die."


    Pound''s heart sank. If empress Chang sun had the same reaction, I''m afraid there''s nothing he can do about it.


    Sun Simiao sighed slightly, "this medicine is useless to you. It''s useless for you to stay here."


    The woman patient couldn''t help crying. Who didn''t want to have the hope of life? However, the hope was coming, but God stubbornly cut it off.


    Pound could not bear to say, "go, the hundred Guan money promised to you will be sent to you."


    "Thank you, Mr. Pang!" the woman patient cried with gratitude. With this 100% subsidy, she can also fill the gap for her poor family.


    Looking at the woman patient holding the hundred Guan banknotes as promised, a group of patients with gas diseases looked at her leaving with envy and pity. They envied that she had won the hundred Guan money without effort. Their pity was that even if the magic medicine was in front of her, it was useless to her.


    However, after this incident, everyone saw the effectiveness of divine medicine and pound''s hundred pass commitment, and everyone had a high enthusiasm for cooperation.


    Soon, the first round of drug test began. The four patients took a small dose of penicillin respectively, while Mo Wu took a bottle directly. After an hour of anxious waiting, there was no abnormality in their bodies.


    "If this medicine has a reaction, even a little can be detected. Since there is no reaction, it means that this medicine is harmless to you and can be used normally." Merton said directly. Naturally, he knew the effect of penicillin in future generations and said bluntly.


    Sun Simiao and Mo Wu nodded and divided the remaining potions into four parts for the four people to take respectively.


    "Due to the limited output of this medicine, take it twice a day. After taking it, your physical condition will be reported truthfully, and the specific curative effect will be seen in five days." Mo Wu solemnly said. Having four people take two doses a day is the limit of his laboratory''s output.


    "I''ll see!" the remaining four women patients said in unison. Naturally, they also cherish this chance to live.


    Pound saw this and said solemnly, "I''m waiting for the good news from the doctor."


    Five days passed in a hurry!


    On the fifth day, everyone gathered in Mo hospital. When they saw the results, they were stunned.


    "In five days, this medicine will cure a cold!" pound looked at the result and said with some difficulty that the huge Qinglong plan had cured a cold.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "no, this medicine is also quite effective for trauma. There is no infection in the trauma of the four people. There is no doubt about the drug''s efficacy."


    "Since it worked, why did it just cure the cold?" pound said with an embarrassed face. Now all the hope of the palace was placed on the medicine, but the doctors gave this unacceptable result.


    "That''s because people''s stomach is very strong. After passing through the stomach, I''m afraid these drugs are digested and can''t be transformed into medicine." Sun Simiao said helplessly.


    "Then combine the four parts into one for one person!" pound frowned. No matter what the final result was, as long as he could cure one person, it was enough for the eldest grandson queen!


    They looked at each other, nodded and said, "I''m afraid it''s the only way!"


    "Just you! Your condition is very similar to that of the queen!" pound said, pointing to the sallow faced middle-aged woman among the four.


    "My concubine takes orders!" the middle-aged woman said frankly. Although the other three women patients were helpless, they had to accept this fact.


    After taking the medicine one by one, another five days later, although the condition of middle-aged women has improved, it is not obvious,


    "Then increase the dosage!" said pound with a smile.


    "No, it can''t be increased, otherwise she won''t be able to bear it?" Mo Wu objected. Due to a large amount of penicillin, middle-aged women have had some adverse reactions of nausea, vomiting and dizziness, and the whole drug test process suddenly fell into a deadlock.


    Sun Simiao carefully examined the middle-aged woman''s body, shook his head and said, "once this medicine is taken too much, it has no small side effects. The Queen''s body is weak, I''m afraid she can''t bear so many side effects."


    He has always been responsible for the treatment of empress Chang sun. Naturally, he knows the extent of empress Chang sun''s weakness. If he wants to cure empress Chang sun, he should not only take effective drugs, but also can not stimulate empress Chang sun''s weak body.


    "How could this happen?" Princess Changle was unwilling to accept the result. Obviously, she had found a good prescription for treatment, but she was stuck in the last step.


    Sun Simiao said helplessly, "since ancient times, no matter how good the medicine is, it can take effect only by external application and internal use. There is no other way."


    Princess Changle could not help but be decadent. She had studied art and naturally knew this truth.


    "No, there''s a third way!" Merton said solemnly.


    "The third way!" Sun Simiao was stunned and looked at Merton. He had been practicing medicine for many years, but he had never heard of any other way.


    "That''s direct injection!" Merton cut the nail and cut the railway. Even in later generations, injection is the most efficient way to absorb drugs.


    Sun Simiao''s eyes lit up, right! In this way, the drugs absorbed by the human body can be fully utilized by the human body without going through the intestines and stomach. In this way, the effect of treatment can be achieved without too large dose.


    "There are two ways to inject it into the body. One is to inject it into the muscles, there are many muscles in the hips or arms, and the other is to directly inject it into the blood vessels and let it pass through the whole body directly along the blood." Merton Lang said.


    "Hoo!" everyone present was shocked by Merton''s amazing idea. Merton''s move was a fusion of internal medicine and surgery, creating a new way of treatment.


    Pound stared at Sun Simiao and asked, "doctor sun, is this method feasible?"


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "it is feasible in theory, but now the biggest problem is how to inject drugs into the body."


    All of a sudden, they looked at each other with silly eyes. It was not a problem to make a hole in people and find blood vessels. The problem was how to inject these potions into the human body and ensure their absorption.


    Merton smiled knowingly and said, "treating diseases is the strength of doctors. However, making utensils is the specialty of Mohists. As long as doctors need them, Mohists must be duty bound!"


    Sun Simiao''s eyes brightened. This is why he advocated close cooperation between doctors and Mohists. That is, many medical devices can''t be separated from the support of doctors.


    Looking at Merton''s confident smile, Princess Changle couldn''t help showing a sense of security. As long as Merton was there, it seemed that there was nothing uncertain.


    "Then there will be the Lord of Laomo!" said pound solemnly.


    "The empress is seriously ill. Mo must do her best!" Merton said.


    Sun Simiao nodded and said in a loud voice, "Mo Wu continues to refine Qinglong real medicine. After Mo Hou''s utensils are completed, he will immediately start the second round of medicine test."

 Chapter 944

    "Xianggong, can you really make this object!" Princess Changle asked on the way back to her house.


    Merton nodded and said, "it''s not difficult. You should have seen the prototype of this kind of ware."


    Princess Changle said, "I''ve seen it?"


    Merton nodded and said, "that''s well killing! It must be a well killing reduced to palm size!"


    "Well killing!" Princess Changle could not help thinking. She naturally saw well killing. This is Merton''s famous work. It not only solved the problem of draught of countless people, but also gave people all over the world the ability to protect themselves in the face of drought. The good harvest of Datang in recent years can be attributed to well killing.


    Merton explained: "the so-called syringe is just the reverse application of the principle of well killing. Well killing pumps water out of the ground through pressure, while the syringe uses pressure to inject the liquid medicine that has been inhaled through pressure."


    "That''s it?" Princess Changle said strangely.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "of course it won''t be so simple. If you really want to inject drugs into people, you still need to create a needle, a hollow needle!"


    The whole syringe has no difficulty, but a hollow needle is a difficult problem for hundreds of years. It is time to really test the Mohist ink technology.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Hollow needle!"


    In Mo mansion, Lao Zhang came in a hurry and was stunned when he heard Merton''s request. There was no problem in forging a needle. Even the most ordinary craftsman could do it, but a hollow needle baffled the most powerful craftsman of Mohism.


    "Young master, do you want to make some concealed weapons?" Lao Zhang asked carefully.


    Merton was very angry and said with a smile, "what concealed weapon? It''s a medical device made for doctors, especially for the treatment of empress Chang sun. Yes, I don''t care what method you use, you must make this needle in the shortest time, even if you mobilize the power of the whole Mohist village." Merton said calmly, Now, there is only the last step left in the treatment of empress Chang sun. You can''t get stuck in this step anyway.


    Lao Zhang''s head looks dignified. Since this needle is related to the condition of empress changsun, who is also the mother of Princess Changle, the mistress of the Mohist school, there must be no loss in making this needle.


    "I''m sure Lao Zhang will do my best," Lao Zhang promised solemnly.


    Lao Zhang tou, who got the task, immediately went back to Mojia village. When he announced that Merton''s task was to make a hollow needle, all Mojia craftsmen were in an uproar.


    "How can this be possible? The needle itself is already a tiny object, how can it be made into a hollow." the needle is made of steel. The owner of the steelmaking workshop is Zhang Mu, the second son of Lao Zhang tou. Zhang Mu shook his head and denied.


    "Since it''s the young master''s request, it can be done naturally. Which time did the young master miss?" Lao Zhang cut his head and nailed the railway.


    "How about using the method of casting Buddha?" Zhang Mu had an idea and suggested that the Mohist school had undertaken the Buddha casting business of the Buddhist school. The Buddhist school was very happy. The bigger the Buddha statue, the better. Naturally, it is impossible to use all the real materials and all the hollow casting.


    "As long as I rotate the needle while casting it, it will form a hollow." Zhang Mu talked about the hollow technology, which is like a treasure.


    Lao Zhang nodded and said, "you can try this strategy."


    "Since it''s to cure the empress changsun, naturally we should use the best Mohist steel!" Zhang Mu said proudly. Under the leadership of Zhang Mu, a group of Mohist craftsmen came to the workshop specializing in the production of steel cables for Weishui bridge. Everyone nodded. It really has the best steel in Mojia village.


    Merton led the crowd to the fiery steelmaking furnace, looked at the dark red rolling molten iron, and said in a loud voice, "gentlemen, let''s start!"


    Those who can be summoned by Lao Zhang are all skilled craftsmen of Mohism. Under the leadership of Zhang Mu, all craftsmen work together to create needle molds in the shortest time.


    Lao Zhang personally poured the red flowing molten slurry into the small mold mouth, but found that what they thought was too simple. Such a small entrance was full of air and could not be injected at all, but reluctantly injected some. Such a thin steel wire was soon cooled and formed. Even if it was rotated vigorously, it could not form a hollow.


    The first attempt of Mohist craftsmen failed, and the hollow casting method could not be used where the needle eye was large.


    "No, if we can try the drilling method," frowned tie Ping. Tie Ping is also a rising star of the craftsman generation of Mohism. He usually presides over the four wheeled carriage workshop. The most commonly used method is the drilling method.


    Lao Zhang hesitated and said, "it''s common to drill holes with soft wood. However, if we can turn the size of the steel needle, I''m afraid it''s difficult to write!"


    "But it doesn''t hurt to try!" tie Ping said confidently.


    It was obvious that Tieping also failed and returned. Such a thin steel needle, not to mention whether there was such a tie and hard brick, was easy to break the steel needle and could not be operated at all. Finally, tie Ping only drilled a thumb thick steel pipe to cross the job.


    Lao Zhang said with hatred: "the young master made the hollow needle to cure the empress, not to murder the empress. Do you want to pierce a hole in the empress''s Phoenix body with such a thick steel pipe?"


    Tie pingdun ran away, but he spread his hands, which is the most advanced level of drilling method.


    "For the sake of today, there is only one way, that is roll method!" said a Mohist craftsman carefully.


    "Roll method!" Lao Zhang''s mind moved. He was very familiar with the roll method. Just smash the iron sheet thin, and then beat it continuously to curl it slowly until it forms a circle. In the era of backward technology, the roll method was usually used to make circular objects.


    "Such a small syringe can also be rolled." tie Ping said angrily. He doesn''t believe that he can solve the problem that his drilling method has not solved, and the most backward drum method can solve it.


    Zhang Mu said cautiously, "now in Chang''an City, the public losers are the best at using the drum method. The public losers use the drum method to build the chimney of the public loser furnace."


    Lao Zhang raised his eyebrows and said, "nonsense, the craftsman of reel method can''t. I think what I was best at was to build reels and ask for advice from the public losers."


    Although the relationship between the public losers and the Mohists has eased, they still compete with each other and compare secretly. Lao Zhang is unwilling to be compared by the public losers.


    At present, Lao Zhang was unwilling to show weakness. He picked up the hammer and copied the old technology again, and began to use the drum method to create a cylinder with a large needle tip.


    It has to be said that Lao Zhang''s skill is extraordinary. With his superb skill, a cylinder the size of a rigid needle is quickly formed.


    "Master is awesome!" a group of Mohist craftsmen complimented one after another.


    Lao Zhang''s head could not help showing a trace of pride. However, when he assembled the hollow cylinder and the injection equipment he had already built, he did not find an embarrassing problem in his own experiment, that is, the hollow steel needle made by the drum method is extremely poor in rigidity and easy to bend. In addition, there is a more serious problem, that is, the sealing performance of the hollow needle made by the drum method is extremely poor, It''s easy to leak. Once used, the drugs in the syringe can''t be injected into the body at all. I''m afraid they will all leak out.


    "I''d better consult the public loser!" although Lao Zhang didn''t want to bow down to the public loser, it was related to the condition of empress Chang sun. It was natural to hope for success one day earlier.


    Public loser!


    Public losers have been enjoying a good life recently. As soon as winter comes, it is the best-selling season for public losers. Public losers have received soft orders. In addition, the construction of the bank treasury of the Mohist bank has greatly increased the reputation of public losers. There are countless aristocratic families who come to find public losers to build the Treasury. In addition, public losers'' new locks have not only received a large number of orders for four-wheel carriages, It is more sought after by the people.


    With these three pillars, the public losers have really gained a firm foothold in Chang''an city.


    "Mohist School for help!" when the public loser received Mohist School for help, he couldn''t help but be surprised.


    You know, although the public losers are mixed, they are still far from the flourishing Mohist school. The Mohist school asked the public losers for help, which naturally surprised the public losers.


    "Hahaha, Mohism still has today!" the public transport wheel laughed happily.


    Gongshuhong was surprised, but he was not complacent. Instead, he said, "don''t be careless. Even the artifacts that are difficult to live in Mojia village can''t be done easily."


    The public loser Hao nodded solemnly. Only those who really understand Mohism can know how powerful the Mohist craft is and how deep the accumulation of Mohist technology is.


    "Hollow needle!"


    When they saw the Mohist''s request, they were stunned.


    "Are you sure the Mohists didn''t mean to embarrass us!" the public loser frowned.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "I heard that the Mohists have jointly launched the Qinglong plan with doctors for the condition of empress changsun. I think this hollow needle is the key."


    Now the condition of empress Chang sun is not a secret in Chang''an city. The public losers have naturally known about it.


    "It really took no time. The Mohists tried their best to exclude the Buddhists and wanted to invite the queen. Finally, they got stuck in this step. If my public loser could do it, wouldn''t it surpass the Mohists." the public loser moved in his heart.


    "I''m afraid this so-called hollow needle is not so easy to make, otherwise it won''t be difficult for the Mohist school." public defeat Hao Ning said.


    "Success or failure, you''ll know as soon as you try!" Honglang said.


    This is related to the condition of empress Chang sun. If he can make contributions to it, he can not only surpass the Mohist School in reputation, but also please the emperor. This is a rare opportunity for the public loser.


    At present, Gongshu Hong personally operates a knife and creates a hollow needle with the most exquisite roller method of Gongshu family.


    It has to be said that the public losers do have a few times. Under the superb technology of the public loser, the hollow needle is indeed better than Lao Zhang''s head in rigidity, and the problem of water leakage remains unresolved.


    In the Mohist hospital, the drug test for patients with Qi diseases stopped and the failure of the hollow needle of the public transfusion family. Slowly, rumors of the failure of the Mohist Qinglong plan began to spread in Chang''an city.


    "If it weren''t for the obstruction of the Mohists, if the Buddhists prayed for the empress, maybe the empress''s condition would have improved!" Leng humed the abbot of Huichang in Huichang temple.


    The defense machine folded his hands and said, "what the master said is very true. Life and death have a life. Wealth lies in heaven. Only the Buddha can bless all sentient beings. The Mohist tried to change his life against the sky. It''s like a praying arm riding a cart. It''s overkill."


    Abbot Huichang could not help showing a trace of pride. Empress changsun''s condition was not a secret, but an opportunity for prosperity that their Buddhist family had planned for a long time. Unexpectedly, it was blocked by the born Mohist family. Now it''s time for the Mohist family to ask for trouble.


    "Go to changsun mansion and tell changsun Chong that it would be bad if the empress''s condition was delayed because the Mohist son prayed for the empress one day later!" Abbot Huichang said with a sneer.


    Now the green dragon plan of Mojia Zi has failed. As long as Gongsun''s family lights a fire in the imperial court, it will certainly enable Mojia Zi to walk around and delay empress changsun''s illness. Even Mojia Zi can''t afford this responsibility.


    "Abbot is wise! This time, the imperial court will certainly allow my Buddhist family to prosper the temple and pray for the queen." the defense machine showed a trace of excitement. Once this matter is done, the reputation of Buddhist families in Chang''an city will certainly go up to a higher level.


    Abbot Huichang shook his head and said, "I needed 3600 monks to pray for the queen last time. I''m afraid it''s not enough to delay so long now!"


    The defense opportunity was not stopped, and suddenly understood the meaning of Abbot Huichang. It was obvious that he took the opportunity to strive for more interests for the Buddhist family.


    "I understand!" the debater said clearly. Then he got up and rushed to the changsun mansion.


    With the development of the Chang sun mansion, there was another impeachment in the court hall. Merton delayed his illness and requested to build a temple for the empress Chang sun, and this time the momentum was greater than the last time.


    "It''s nonsense!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. If it weren''t for the sake of the ministers and the empress changsun, he would have ordered a reprimand.


    "Your Majesty, calm down!" pound hurriedly comforted.


    Li Shimin calmed his irritability a little, frowned and said, "how''s the progress of the Qinglong plan?"


    Pound bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the drug has been developed, but the effect is not good. Now the only hope is to make the Mohist hollow needle."


    "Hollow needle!" although Li Shimin doesn''t understand ink technology, he also knows the difficulty by listening to the name. The needle itself is very small. I''m afraid it''s even more difficult to make a hollow needle.


    "Mohism, I hope you don''t let me down!" Li Shimin murmured. He didn''t order to urge Merton. Mojia village has the highest technology in the world. If even Mojia village can''t make hollow needles, he doesn''t need to think about other places at all.


    As the news spread little by little, the blocking of the hollow needle in Mojia village soon spread all over Chang''an city. No one thought that the famous Mojia fell on an insignificant hollow needle.


    Mohist village. Since the failure of the public loser, Lao Zhang''s head suddenly doubled his pressure. He didn''t know how much white his hair was, but he was still helpless with the hollow needle.


    On this day, Lao Zhang''s head wandered around for inspiration or making hollow needles. Unconsciously, he came to the underground glass workshop of Mohist R & D department.


    "Come on, let''s blow and lengthen it quickly. We must let Mowu''s customized curved neck bottle be completed." the two Mohist children cooperated with each other. Soon, with the skilled cooperation of the Mohist children, a large group of red glass was pulled hard and a little plate, and a slender curved neck bottle in the shape of swan neck was born.


    After a series of work last night, they will find that Lao Zhang''s head is staring at them.


    "Master Zhang!" they said respectfully.


    However, Lao Zhang didn''t seem to hear their call, and couldn''t help recalling the picture of them pulling the swan neck of the curved neck bottle just now.


    "Elongate! Don''t you get thinner?" Lao Zhang suddenly realized that with the existing technology, they really make hollow needles directly. However, as long as they elongate the hollow steel pipe, it''s easy to get extremely thin hollow needles? "


    At present, Lao Zhang rushed to the steel plant and revealed his ideas.


    "How to lengthen the hollow steel pipe? It will break as soon as it is pulled." Zhang Mu frowned.


    "It''s really a elm head. Of course, it''s not pulled when it solidifies, but burned red, just like making a glass tube." Lao Zhang scolded.


    Zhang Mu''s eyes suddenly lit up. He naturally saw the appearance of glass manufacturing. At present, he suddenly realized that he immediately imitated the glass process. Soon, a slender hollow steel pipe that had just cooled had been made.


    With the sharp cutting machine, sparks splashed everywhere. Soon, a qualified seamless hollow needle appeared in front of Lao Zhang''s head.


    "The emperor is worthy of his heart. The Mohist school finally made a hollow needle. This time, the empress is saved." Lao Zhang, like a treasure, picked up the hollow needle and hurried to Chang''an city to report the good news to Merton.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tai Chi hall.


    "Tell your majesty that the minister impeached the Mo family. If the Mo family hadn''t preached the green dragon plan and delayed the Queen''s illness, the queen might have improved!" this time, the eldest sun Chong took his own head to impeach Merton, gnashing his teeth.


    "Chong''er, the empress would be very pleased if she knew your filial piety." Li Shimin couldn''t help but flash a soft way when looking at Chang sun Chong. No matter what the purpose of Chang sun Chong was, his starting point was for the empress.


    "My aunt is seriously ill. Chong''er wants to replace her. These days, Chong''er copies Buddhist scriptures day and night and does his best to pray for her aunt. I hope the Buddha can bless her to survive and get better." Chang sun Chong said with a loyal and filial look.


    "You have a heart!" Li Shimin nodded.


    A censor had already been inspired by Chang sun Chong and came out: "since the green dragon plan of the Mohist school failed, and the condition of empress Chang sun still hasn''t improved, it''s not too late for me to wait for monk du to enter the Tao and ask the Buddha to bless the Queen''s recovery."


    "Yes, because the mojiazi has delayed so many days and has refused to pray for Buddha''s blessing before. If you annoy the Buddha, please ask your majesty and monks to be safe."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    While many officials impeached Merton one after another, they also did not forget to strive for more interests for the Buddhists. The situation of the whole court suddenly fell to one side, and the wind of re worshiping the Buddha and praying for blessings rose sharply.


    Just then, a report sounded.


    "Tell your majesty! Marquis Mo wants to see you!"


    "Mo family, he delayed the Queen''s illness and dared to come!" all the officials were in an uproar.


    "Announce him to the court!" Li Shimin said in his heart.


    With the announcement, Merton, who was killed by many people, suddenly appeared outside the Tai Chi hall. He didn''t look at all the officials. He strode forward and said in a voice: "inform your majesty, the green dragon plan of the Mohist school has been successful, and several patients with Qi diseases similar to those of the empress have been discharged from the hospital."


    Suddenly everyone was silent. The patients with Qi disease in Mo hospital had been discharged from the hospital. Doesn''t that mean that the Queen''s condition is saved!

 Chapter 945

    In the legislative palace,


    When the crowd gathered, empress Chang sun had the hope of treatment. Suddenly, all the princesses and princes rushed to the palace. Company commander sun Chong and Chang sun Wuji followed. In addition, the imperial doctors who were unwilling to let go of the medical miracle suddenly filled the legislative hall.


    In front of the Queen''s bed, Princess Changle carefully took out the medicine bottle from a medicine box, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "This is the real green dragon medicine!" Li Shimin couldn''t help asking. Even though he had been reported by pound, he still couldn''t believe that this liquid medicine like clear water was the legendary real green dragon medicine.


    Others were also in an uproar. No one could believe that this colorless and transparent liquid could cure the stubborn disease that made the imperial doctors helpless.


    "Is your royal highness taking the wrong medicine?" an imperial physician could not help questioning.


    Princess Changle shook her head and explained: "The reason why this potion is colorless and transparent is that it is very difficult to obtain this medicine. The real Qinglong real medicine can''t be seen by the naked eye. It can only be spied with the help of a doctor''s microscope. Moreover, it needs water to be dissolved before it can be absorbed by the human body. This water is not ordinary water, but the purest and clean water collected by boiling water after distillation and condensation. In this way, the authenticity of Qinglong can be ensured The purity and efficacy of medicine. "


    Hearing that the manufacturing process of Qinglong real medicine was so tall and passed through the mouth of Princess Changle, Li Shimin nodded slightly and relaxed a little.


    "Wei Chen heard that the Qinglong real medicine is not perfect. During the drug test, some people have discomfort, if only..." said the elder sun Chong who followed him.


    "Shut up! Empress Hong Fuqi heaven, how can she compete with this medicine!" before others retorted, eldest sun Wuji was furious and angrily scolded eldest sun Chong.


    He and empress Chang sun have been dependent on each other since childhood. He is the last one who wants to lose empress Chang sun. I''m afraid he is the one who wants to cure empress Chang sun most now.


    On one side, Merton did not deny that: "there was indeed an discomfort in the doctor''s test, so we still need to let the queen test the medicine before we give the injection."


    The eldest grandson queen on the sickbed said weakly, "life and death are destiny. If this palace really conflicts with this medicine, it is also the will of heaven!"


    "Don''t worry, Guanyin maid. There is only one case among 100 people. Even if it happens, the doctors will find another way." Li Shimin stared at Merton menacingly while comforting the empress changsun.


    Merton had no choice but to harden his head and said, "don''t worry, empress. Even if the empress''s Phoenix body really conflicts with this medicine, the doctors will re develop new drugs and will cure the empress."


    Although Merton said so, anyone knows how difficult it is to develop a new drug. Even if it can be developed, empress changsun will not last that long. All her hopes are in this dose of Qinglong real medicine.


    "I heard that if you want to test the medicine, you need to scratch your arm. I''m afraid you''ll hurt the Phoenix body!" the imperial doctor''s order suddenly said, how important the body of the empress changsun is. When they usually treat, they are terrified. Where has there been an example of cutting their arm.


    Li Shimin glared and said, "what is a mere wound that can save lives? I think there were not a few wounded soldiers who even did not hesitate to cut meat to treat their diseases once they were infected when I fought in the South and North."


    If someone else could test the medicine, Li Shimin would not be like this. However, this medicine needs to adapt to his own body. This small injury seems insignificant.


    Empress changsun waved her hand and said, "although Changle tried the medicine boldly, she can bear this little injury to her mother."


    "The mother doesn''t know anything about it. It''s just the previous method to test the medicine for cutting. Since the Mohist School developed the hollow needle, there has been a new method to test the medicine. It won''t hurt the mother''s body at all," Changle said with a smile.


    "Hollow needle!" in an instant, everyone focused on Merton. As we all know, the last level of Qinglong real medicine was stuck on the hollow needle.


    At that moment, Princess Changle took out a brand-new syringe from the medicine box, installed the hollow needle in public, took out the already diluted potion, exerted a little force, and saw that the potion ejected a thin water flow from the tip of the needle.


    When the potion flowed out of the hollow needle, the people suddenly realized that the reason why the Mexican family made great efforts to develop the hollow needle was that a group of imperial doctors held their breath and focused on the operation of Princess Changle, because the emergence of the hollow needle will create a third mode of medical treatment, that is, the injection method other than external application and internal use, which is an irresistible temptation for any doctor.


    At that moment, Princess Changle picked up the syringe, carefully disinfected the inner wrist of empress changsun with alcohol, then pushed the needle to the skin of empress changsun with a little force, and the potion soon formed a drum on the wrist of empress changsun.


    "This is the latest medicine testing method of doctors. It only needs one needle eye to test the medicine subcutaneously. There will be no scar!" Princess Changle said softly,


    "If there is no redness, swelling and itching in the skin test after a moment, it means that there is no conflict between the mother and Qinglong real medicine."


    Princess Changle knows it like the back of her hand. The injection method needs to see the patient''s body. Empress changsun has a special status and is not suitable for other doctors. Only princess Changle is the most suitable. Recently, when doctors treat patients with Qi diseases, Princess Changle injected it in person for today''s needs. This is also the reason why Sun Simiao and Mo Wu didn''t show up. Only princess Changle came to the palace with drugs Because.


    Empress Chang sun nodded. Although the skin test just now was very painful, it was nothing compared with the desire for recovery?


    With the passage of time, the time of a moment seems to be very short, but it is particularly long in the eyes of many people, because after a moment, it is the time to determine the fate of the empress changsun.


    Finally, the hourglass of the funnel finally ran out. At the moment, Princess Changle came forward to check the skin test results. She saw that there was no abnormality in the wrist of empress changsun. She couldn''t help but rejoice and said, "empress mother''s blessing doesn''t conflict with this medicine."


    "Hoo!"


    Suddenly everyone was relieved.


    "Thank God!" Rao is as strong as Li Shimin, and he can''t help blurting out.


    Princess Changle also showed a trace of joy. She got up and said in a loud voice, "please leave the Lizheng palace for the time being. The palace will give needles to the empress mother."


    People suddenly remembered that the latest injection therapy needed to be injected directly into the body. Naturally, it was inconvenient for them to stay in the legislative palace.


    However, as soon as they walked out of the door of the legislative hall, they saw that Princess Changle had finished her treatment and came out.


    "It''s cured!" Li Shimin asked hurriedly.


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "father, don''t worry. If this medicine takes effect, it will take three to five days, and at least twice a day. The mother has rested, and the child needs to go back and continue dispensing!"


    In order to be safer, Princess Changle adopted the safest intramuscular injection method, but the medication needs to be more frequent. In addition, now the penicillin technology is immature, and the preparation effect needs to be the best on the same day. This is also the reason why Princess Changle left in a hurry.


    Li Shimin nodded solemnly.


    Other imperial doctors also nodded slightly. If this medicine can cure the disease, people must doubt it, and it is also in the normal medical theory to get better in three to five days.


    With the continuous injection of Princess Changle, the very weak empress changsun soon improved. The next day, the situation of cough and asthma had greatly improved. On the third day, she could get out of bed and walk. On the fifth day, although the empress changsun was weak, she was no different from before she fell ill.


    Merton was prepared for this result. Although the content of penicillin produced by Mohists was far different from that of later generations, the effect of penicillin was also very significant in this era when bacteria had no drug resistance.


    "Tell your majesty that empress Chang sun is all right!"


    On the fifth day, Sun Simiao personally came to the palace to carefully diagnose the pulse of empress Chang sun, and nodded with satisfaction.


    A group of imperial doctors also came forward to diagnose one after another. The result was no different from Sun Simiao''s diagnosis. No one thought that the stubborn disease that had left everyone helpless could be cured so simply.


    "Divine medicine!" the eyes of the imperial doctors were hot and couldn''t help floating. It was obvious that they were very interested in the so-called green dragon real medicine. However, this was the moment when the queen recovered, and no one was here to spoil the scenery.


    "In this way, the Queen''s Qi disease has healed!" Li Shimin said excitedly with expectation.


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "no, the disease is divided into congenital disease and acquired disease. The congenital disease is that Hua Tuo can''t be cured in the world. The Qi disease of the empress is a congenital disease. Although the curative effect of Qinglong real medicine is amazing, it can only cure the acquired disease. I''m afraid the Qi disease and loss of Qi and blood of the empress still need to be adjusted slowly in the future. Pay more attention to her body in the future."


    This time, the only thing cured was the complication of the attack of empress Chang sun''s Qi disease. The real Qi disease still exists.


    Li Shimin was greatly disappointed, and the excitement just now dissipated a lot.


    The eldest grandson queen comforted: "my concubine has been lucky to get back a life. How dare you do what he asks?"


    After a life and death disaster, empress changsun has long been pessimistic. She is lucky to survive. More importantly, once this medicine is released, it has laid a foundation for the treatment of Princess Jinyang in the future. All this has made her extremely satisfied.


    "Thank you, doctor Mo family! You have made great contributions to the Queen''s treatment this time. I will certainly reward you based on your achievements." Li Shimin turned his worries into joy and said in a loud voice.


    "It''s the duty of a doctor to cure the sick and save people. I dare not take credit!" Sun Simiao said modestly.


    "The queen is seriously ill, and the minister is just doing his filial duty! How dare he receive the reward." Merton shook his head and said. The reason why he spared no effort and even did not hesitate to open the door to develop penicillin was that he saw the empress changsun seriously ill. Thinking that Princess Changle also has a very short life, and the risk of childbirth in this era is great. If this medicine can be published, it will provide another guarantee. This medicine is not only developed for Queen changsun, but also for Princess Changle. Naturally, he is unwilling to take credit.


    Sun Simiao and Merton both refused Li Shimin''s reward. However, Li Shimin was not stingy. With a big hand, all the personnel participating in the Qinglong plan were given a reward.


    Mo Wu and Lao Zhang, who solved the problem of hollow needle, did not say that even aunt Xu had a reward.


    "Mrs. Qipin Gaoming!"


    Aunt Xu knelt there and listened to the imperial edict. She was stunned. She was just the wife of a merchant with a very low status. Who could have thought that she would be granted the title of Mrs. Gao one day.


    "Isn''t it that my child can get fame!" aunt Xu said with great joy. The Xu family is a registered merchant''s family. Aunt Xu''s son can''t take the imperial examination at all. Now she has been awarded the seventh grade high commissioner''s wife, which has also changed her son''s fate.


    Xu Jie, who was on the other side, scolded, "what kind of merit? I''ve decided to let my son learn ink skills with Lao Zhang. There is not no chance of coming out in the future, but it''s also a good thing to change it into a good book."


    "Yes, yes, learn ink skills!" aunt Xu said with a smile.


    This time, the Mohist ink technique greatly improved the treatment of empress Chang sun. For a moment, there was no difference in the limelight, and the whole Chang''an city was shocked by it.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Qinglong real medicine!"


    For a moment, it has become a favorite topic in Chang''an City, both dignitaries and ordinary people. Who doesn''t care about this miracle medicine to bring back the dead? After all, everyone has only one life.


    "How can there be medicine to bring the dead back to life!" some people don''t believe.


    "That''s false. Empress Chang sun was already terminally ill, but now she has recovered!" a Chang''an citizen shouted. It is said that empress Chang''an has recovered. I don''t know that empress Chang''an''s Qi disease has not been completely cured.


    "Also, rich man Li of the east gate has contracted tuberculosis and is about to vomit blood and die. It''s best to be cured by this medicine."


    "And..."


    As everyone gave examples one by one, diseases that were considered to be fatal by everyone were cured one by one with this medicine.


    "No matter how good this medicine is, it''s useless. It''s said that this medicine is regarded as liquid gold. Its price can be imagined, and it''s not affordable for ordinary people like us." a poor man said dejected.


    "It is said that this drug is still in the trial stage, and there is no charge at present!"


    "The doctor hung a pot to help the world. The Mohist school loves the world. It shouldn''t be!"


    Some people can''t help but defend the doctors and Mohists, but they all show some lack of confidence. After all, everyone knows that such divine medicine must be scarce in output and its price is absolutely expensive.


    Among the people of Chang''an City, there was even an uproar among hundreds of families.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Qinglong real medicine!"


    In Huichang temple, some abbots of Huichang gnashed their teeth.


    He never thought that the doctors and Mohists would really cure the empress Chang sun''s disease and destroy the Buddhist plan for many years. What''s more hateful is that the doctors have this medicine and can treat more people. This is another disaster for the Buddhist family. People spend money to treat diseases in the hospital. I''m afraid the Buddhist incense money is even worse.


    "There is really a medicine to bring the dead back to life!" the debater sitting at the head couldn''t help muttering to himself that the medicine to bring the dead back to life is a commonly used propaganda means of religion. However, it has never appeared in the world. I didn''t expect it to appear in the hands of Mohism.


    Abbot Huichang shook his head and said, "only the Buddha has this means to really bring the dead back to life. This medicine can only cure the acquired diseases. It should not be called this name."


    The defense machine quickly nodded in agreement.


    "However, even if it can only cure acquired diseases, this medicine cannot be controlled by the Mohist family." Abbot Huichang couldn''t help but say in a low voice,


    "But this medicine is so valuable that the Mohists can''t be willing to give it up." the defense machine couldn''t help hesitating.


    Abbot Huichang said with a sneer: "no one wants to see Mohism enjoy this almost divine means, and no one is willing to accept Mohism to control their own destiny, including your majesty!"


    The defense machine couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and nodded comprehensively.


    The Buddhists really controlled the hearts of the people. When the whole Chang''an City and even the whole Tang Dynasty were most enthusiastic about Qinglong real medicine, a undercurrent against Mohist Qinglong real medicine quietly merged.

 Chapter 946

    "Mo Hou! Please don''t hesitate to give me divine medicine! Linghu family will be very grateful for saving my mother!" in the Mo house, Linghu Deyu solemnly asked for medicine for her mother.


    "What''s wrong with your mother?" Merton asked eagerly.


    "This is the case of MOH hospital! Please open your eyes!" Linghu Deyu said with a thick case book in both hands.


    Merton took it and frowned. Although Linghu''s mother was seriously ill in the case, it was not within the treatment scope of penicillin. He shook his head and said, "your mother''s disease is a disease that needs rest, not an infection. Even if you use Qinglong real medicine, it has no effect."


    "Don''t be joking. Qinglong real medicine can bring the dead back to life. Even the stubborn illness of the empress can be cured, not to mention my mother''s illness!" Linghu de was a little unhappy.


    Merton was helpless to explain: "how can there be a medicine to bring the dead back to life in this world? Qinglong real medicine is specially developed for the disease of the empress, and only cured the concurrent disease. The most fundamental Qi disease and Qi and blood loss have not been cured, and the empress changsun has only improved temporarily."


    "I know this medicine must be very precious, and I won''t let mohou Bai help me!" Linghu dehu didn''t smell it. He stretched out his hand and offered a treasure chest to a housekeeper who followed behind him. He opened it gently, and suddenly revealed the treasures inside. With Merton''s eyes, you can see that it is worth at least a hundred years.


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "it''s not that Mo doesn''t help! Although Qinglong real medicine is refined by Mohism, the right to use Qinglong real medicine is all in the hands of doctors. The use of each Qinglong real medicine needs the consent of Sun Simiao. Lord Linghu is afraid to ask the wrong person."


    Linghu Deyu said reluctantly, "mohou thought I didn''t ask doctor sun. Now at least thousands of patients in the whole mohou hospital are waiting in line for Qinglong real medicine, and countless people are coming. I was forced to find mohou."


    Merton couldn''t help but be stunned. Naturally, he could think of how excited some seriously ill people were when they heard the news of Qinglong real medicine. Everyone was greedy for life and death. I''m afraid they all scrambled to come when they heard that there was a chance to live. I''m afraid the whole hospital has been in disorder.


    Merton thought for a moment and said helplessly, "how about this? As long as doctor sun thinks your mother''s condition is suitable for Qinglong real medicine, how about the medicine that will wipe off face and cut off a course of treatment for Lord Linghu?"


    "To tell you the truth, when I went down to ask for doctor sun, doctor sun and Marquis Mo said the same thing. My mother''s condition is not applicable to Qinglong real medicine. However, how can we, as sons, be willing to come to ask for a Qinglong real medicine this time. We don''t ask for my mother''s recovery, but only for my mother''s filial piety." Ling Hu dehu said with a gnashing of his teeth.


    He naturally believed Sun Simiao''s diagnosis, but he still wanted to obtain Qinglong real medicine in order to fulfill his filial piety!


    When Merton heard the speech, he couldn''t help sighing: "Lord Linghu''s filial piety is earth shaking, which is actually a model of filial piety in the Tang Dynasty."


    "So mohou agreed?" said Linghu dehu with great joy


    Merton shook his head: "the honor of Ling Hu''s adult is precious, but he once thought that now Qinglong''s real medicine is very rare." Ling Hu''s adult is wasting his heart for filial piety. That means that a filial piety that will not be used by a person who can''t use Qinglong''s medicine and lose his life will also damage the reputation of Linghu''s adult, nor is it the filial piety that the Lun hopes.


    Linghu Deyu was stunned and speechless when he heard the speech. He thought it was not difficult to get Qinglong real medicine in his position. He was rejected by Sun Simiao and Merton one after another.


    Moreover, Merton said a fact. If he really forced Qinglong to take real medicine, I''m afraid he would really become a target for political enemies to attack. On the one hand, he was filial piety and on the other hand, he was in an official position, which made Hu Dezhen fall into a dilemma.


    Seeing this, Merton gently pushed the jewelry at hand and said, "if Lord Linghu really wants to be filial and let the mother recover, why not use the money as a special fund to support the doctors to develop and treat the mother''s disease. As far as I know, there is the mother''s disease in the project supported by the imperial court."


    Looking at the back of Linghu dehu leaving, Merton couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief. This was not the first time he accepted the request of powerful people. These days, almost all aristocratic families came to test Qinglong real medicine, which was rejected by him one by one.


    As soon as Merton turned back, he saw that Princess Changle also came over with a deep breath. Merton came forward and said, "Madam Zhao has left!"


    Princess Changle nodded and said, "her body is also a deficit at the time of giving birth to a child. It can''t be cured by Qinglong real medicine at all. My concubine explained to her for a long time. Unfortunately, she just didn''t listen and blindly believed in the efficacy of Qinglong real medicine."


    "This hole can''t be opened, otherwise more people will come to the door. We have so many medicines for them!" Merton shook his head. Now the output of Qinglong real medicine is very low. If they are given, these people will waste it, and those who really need help may have to sit and wait to die.


    Princess Changle nodded and said with a bitter smile, "I know. In this way, I''m afraid we will offend many people!"


    Those who can ascend the Mo mansion are all dignitaries, and the rich families are all big families. No one has patients, and everyone wants the medicine. As for whether it has effect, it will be a life-saving straw for dying people, and anyone will seize it.


    Merton rubbed his eyebrows and said, "don''t worry, I''ve asked the Mohists to expand the pharmaceutical scale of Qinglong real medicine. It won''t be long before the output will go up. There will be no shortage at that time. There''s nothing to waste a few!"


    Princess Changle did not relax. Instead, she said thoughtfully, "that''s all, but I don''t think there''s something wrong with it!"


    Chang''an people''s pursuit of Qinglong real medicine is too fanatical. Not only do dignitaries and dignitaries come to the door of Mo house to ask for medicine, but the Mo hospital is crowded by the public, just for a medicine.


    Merton narrowed his eyes and said, "it seems that someone must be behind the fire. I''ve sent someone to check it."


    If the Mohist school controls such magic medicine, some people will be jealous. If the other party encourages so many people to ask for medicine, there must be a back move. Merton has been keenly aware of the bad things.


    "It''s better to let the Mexican magazine publish a newspaper to clarify that this medicine is not able to revive the dead, but only for trauma and infection!" Princess Changle suggested.


    Merton nodded and agreed, "that''s a way!"


    Ink magazine has a wide audience. If we can clarify the efficacy of Qinglong real medicine, we should be able to alleviate this crisis.


    "Young master, it''s not good!" fuber hurried from the outside.


    Merton hurriedly asked, "what happened?"


    "According to the investigation of Mohist children, most of the patients were guided from the temple..." Fubo gasped.


    "Buddhism!" Merton''s eyes narrowed. He had just broken the good deeds of Buddhism. Unexpectedly, the Revenge of Buddhism came. Most of the people who went to the temple to burn incense were terminally ill. Suddenly, I heard that the doctors had miraculous medicine to bring the dead back to life in the temple. How could he give up the hope of life.


    Fuber shook his head and said, "not only, but also..."


    Merton''s face sank when he heard Fubo''s report. It was not only Buddhism, but also the shadow of other hundreds of families, even the help of aristocratic families, and the blind pursuit of ordinary people.


    However, the output of Qinglong real medicine is so small. No matter how it is used, Mohism is destined to offend many people.


    This time, the Mohists were enemies on all sides.

 Chapter 947

    The Mohist family was secretly pressured by all parties, and dignitaries kept coming and going, while the doctors were also not easy. They faced the pressure of the ordinary people directly. Sun Simiao and Mo Wu looked at the dark crowd outside the Mohist hospital with worry. They had surrounded the gate of the Mohist hospital, and even the patients who needed normal medical treatment could not enter.


    "Doctor sun, please help me!"


    "No matter how much you say, I just want a magic medicine!"


    "I don''t want to die!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Each seriously ill patient is like grasping the last straw, pinning all his hope on Qinglong real medicine, and crying to Zhimo hospital one by one.


    "How about the output of Qinglong real medicine now?" Sun Simiao frowned and asked Mo Wu.


    Mo Wuyi said helplessly, "there are already several Mohist children taking over the work of disciples, but the daily output is only 30."


    If Sun Simiao had heard this news before, he would have been very happy. According to the treatment plan of two a day according to the minimum standard, he could treat 15 people at the same time. However, when he saw the dark and seriously ill patients outside, Sun Simiao knew that it was a drop in the bucket. He just hated it.


    "When can the Mohists increase production!" Sun Simiao couldn''t bear it.


    Mo Wu said: "the young master has ordered it. The most important work of the whole Mojia village is to expand the production of Qinglong real medicine, but it also needs a process. It takes at least one month for large-scale production, and the output is gradually increased."


    "One month!" Sun Simiao couldn''t help sighing. It''s reasonable to say that one month is not slow. However, for seriously ill patients outside, it may not last a month.


    "Even if Qinglong real medicine is enough, not all of them can be cured one by one." Mo Wu calmly said that most of these seriously ill patients are persistent diseases for many years, and many of them are not within the treatment scope of Qinglong real medicine. Even medication is a waste, but no matter how they explain, these people can''t listen.


    Sun Simiao couldn''t help sighing. When things came to this point, it was time for him to make a decision. At present, he clenched his teeth and said, "you leave five so-called surgery for standby every day, and give the remaining 25 to me."


    "What does Sun Lao mean?" Mo Wu was stunned.


    "So many people beg me. I''m afraid I''m ashamed of my medical ethics if I don''t save my life. Now I can only appease and just ask for a clear conscience." Sun Simiao immediately got up and walked outside the Zhimo hospital.


    Mo Wu was in a hurry and quickly followed up. Those seriously ill people were eager to live. If they were excited, they might hurt Sun Simiao by mistake.


    Squeak!


    The closed door of Mo hospital opened heavily, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Doctor sun came out!"


    "Doctor sun, help me!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Among the crowd, many people have looked for Sun Simiao to see a doctor. Seeing Sun Simiao come out, they shouted one after another. Suddenly, the crowd was excited and scrambled to come forward.


    The guards of MOH hospital tried hard to stop them. In addition, these patients were already weak, which was the only way to stop them.


    "Don''t worry, please listen to sun!" Sun Simiao shouted.


    Rao is Sun Simiao''s prestige is very high. He has been shouting several times. Only then did the patients slowly calm down and look at Sun Simiao with eager eyes.


    "Thanks for your trust, sun has a few words to say here. First, Qinglong real medicine is not a divine medicine. It can''t bring back the dead, let alone a broken limb!" Sun Simiao said helplessly, pointing to a disabled person with a broken arm who squeezed to the front.


    The hopes of the disabled with broken arms suddenly disappeared and they couldn''t help crying.


    Sun Simiao sighed in his heart. He knew he had destroyed all his hopes, but he had to do so. Then he gritted his teeth and continued: "second, not only can''t bring back the dead, but this medicine is not omnipotent, and many diseases can''t be cured."


    "Ah!" the people were stunned. They might not believe it when it was said by other people, but it was more credible when it was said from Sun Simiao.


    "First, congenital diseases are incurable. Congenital disabilities, dementia and angina pectoris, including the Qi disease of the eldest grandson queen, have not been cured!"


    "Hey!"


    Suddenly, many patients in the crowd sighed and looked a little depressed. They were the patients of these diseases.


    "Second, for stroke, paralysis, rheumatism, lumbar pain, hypertension and other chronic diseases, Qinglong real medicine also had no effect." Sun Simiao said that the supreme Emperor Li Yuan had a stroke and lay in bed for a long time. After Sun Simiao cured empress Chang sun, he also tested the medicine on Li yuan, and the result was no effect.


    Some people are disappointed. Most of the diseases mentioned by Sun Simiao are caused by their own physical conditions, and they are also their most common diseases. There are a large number of patients.


    "Doctor Sun said directly what disease this medicine can cure! Cough!!" in the crowd, a patient with sallow complexion saw that his symptoms had not been mentioned, so he asked and couldn''t help coughing a few words.


    When they heard the speech, they listened attentively.


    Sun Simiao said in a loud voice, "this medicine is quite effective for traumatic diseases. Any infection and suppuration can be cured. In addition, it is effective for the treatment of lung diseases, wind cold, pneumonia and tuberculosis.


    "Good!"


    Suddenly, bursts of cheers came from the crowd, mixed with a dry cough from time to time. Sun Simiao''s words gave him the greatest hope.


    "However, this medicine is very precious at present. It can treat only 25 people a day. Mo Wu, you go down to diagnose yourself, register all patients with lung diseases, and give priority to the severe." Sun Simiao turned his head and looked at Mo Wu.


    "Sun Lao, we can only have 25 pills a day, not only 25 people." Mo Wuda was puzzled.


    "Use one for each person every day, and replace the rest with Chinese herbal medicine. Although the effect is slightly poor, stabilize these people first, and then increase the medicine when the output increases." Sun Simiao said expressionless. He was also helpless. There were so many patients, so he had to try his best to stabilize the disease first and wait for the Mohist school to expand the output.


    Mo Wu couldn''t help but realize that Jiang was old and spicy. Sun Simiao''s move was to stabilize a large wave of people''s hearts, stabilize the disease first, and try his best to save more lives.


    "Cough! Cough!"


    "Doctor sun, I also have tuberculosis!"


    "Doctor Mo, I''m pneumonia!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly, many people with lung diseases came forward with joy. After mo51 used a stethoscope for diagnosis and treatment, they registered it. Some people who were not lung diseases coughed repeatedly and wanted to pretend to be ill for treatment. In their opinion, anyway, they should first use Qinglong real medicine.


    However, these camouflages had nowhere to hide in front of the stethoscope, and they were soon torn down one by one, but these people were still reluctant.


    Seeing this, Sun Simiao said in a loud voice, "this medicine is very rare and very expensive. At present, the price of a single medicine is 500 Wen, ten for a course of treatment, which is enough for five Guan money. Are you sure you want to waste the five Guan money in vain?"


    "One five hundred Wen!"


    "Five Guan Qian!"


    Everyone was in an uproar. The five Guan money was not a small amount. Rao was prepared, but he couldn''t help shouting.


    Sun Simiao also knew that the price was very high, but the drug was very rare. If the price was not set too high, I''m afraid it could not be supplied at all.


    "It''s so expensive! I don''t have so much money!" a emaciated patient who was registering in front of Mo Wu shook his hand and said at a loss.


    Mo Wu smiled and said, "don''t worry. As long as you have lung disease, this medicine can cure it. Even if you don''t have money, you can go to Mojia village to work and pay off your debts after recovery."


    This is the policy of benefiting the people jointly formulated by Mohists and doctors. According to the money spent on seeing a doctor, go to Mohist village and work at the price of 200 Wen per month. As long as it is not a serious illness, it can be paid off in a year and a half. Of course, after paying off, you should leave immediately in order to leave a vacancy for the next patient to pay off the debt.


    The emaciated patient counted with his fingers. As long as he worked for more than two years, he could pay off and cure himself. It was also cost-effective. Moreover, the Mohists and doctors never lent money at usury. Only then did they feel relieved to press their fingerprints.


    After a while, the patients with lung infection were quickly registered. Rao was so. Still, half of the severe patients stayed here.


    "Please come back!" Sun Simiao waved his hand. He had done his best, and there was nothing else he could do.


    An old man wearing a brocade robe walked weakly to Sun Simiao and said, "please have mercy on doctor sun, not to mention the five Guan money, even the fifty Guan old man will not hesitate!"


    "Yes, we can afford it!"


    "Why can they take medicine? We can''t. If the doctors don''t give us an explanation today, we won''t go!"


    "It''s not fair!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly, the remaining patients were excited. They were already dying and had taken Qinglong real medicine as a life-saving straw. However, the life-saving straw would also sink, which made them how willing they were.


    All of a sudden, the patients rushed again, and the desire for life was great. Even the concierge of Mo hospital struggled to resist and retreated again and again.


    "Sun Lao retreats first!" Mo Wu pulls Sun Simiao hard to protect him. He can''t stop these seriously ill patients.


    "The edict has arrived!"


    Suddenly, a high drink came from the province. Suddenly, the patients who had tried hard to come forward retreated like a tide. After all, the deterrent of imperial power is still very strong.


    Sun Simiao and Mo Wuyi saw that pound came with a group of palace guards. With these guards to maintain order, they could stabilize those seriously ill people.


    "Thank you, Mr. Pang, for rescuing us!" Sun Simiao loosened his breath.


    Father Pang said with a smile: "we don''t have such great ability to solve the siege. As far as we know, now the whole country knows the magical effect of Qinglong real medicine. Countless patients have rushed to Chang''an City day and night. These people in front of us are just the first wave."


    Sun Simiao was shocked. If so many people surrounded the Mexican hospital, I''m afraid the Mexican hospital would never be able to operate again.


    "That father-in-law came to Mexico hospital this time..." Mo Wu moved in his heart and looked at pound in doubt.


    Pound smiled knowingly and said, "our family came here this time to ask doctor sun to discuss how to solve this matter."


    Sun Simiao didn''t expect that the matter had shocked the emperor. He couldn''t help smiling bitterly and confessing with Mo Wu. Then he left with pound.

 Chapter 948

    With the Imperial Palace bodyguard opening the way, Sun Simiao was already old before pound went all the way to the Taiji palace. In addition, he cured the empress Chang sun. This is the highest preferential treatment given to Sun Simiao by Li Shimin.


    "Doctor sun, please." pound bowed.


    After Sun Simiao nodded and got off the bus, he strode into the Tai Chi hall. However, he found that the Tai Chi hall was already full of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the whole Tai Chi hall was full of gunpowder. Almost all civil and military officials stood together. Against them was the Mexican family alone. The two sides were facing each other.


    "Doctor sun!" Wen Wu of the Manchu Dynasty said respectfully when he saw Sun Simiao coming in.


    No matter how much they covet Qinglong real medicine, no one dares to offend Sun Simiao, the most skilled doctor in the Tang Dynasty. Everyone is mortal. They all get sick. Maybe one day you will ask him.


    Sun Simiao nodded and bowed back. With his current status and achievements, even facing his majesty is not impolite.


    "Well, now that doctor sun has arrived, you can start!" Li Shimin waved his hand when he saw Sun Simiao coming.


    The imperial doctor ordered more and more people to come out: "Qinglong real medicine is the gospel of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty. Please don''t cherish yourself, and give the formula of Qinglong real medicine for the sake of all the people in the world, so as to cure more people in the world!"


    It is reasonable to say that Taiji hospital is the holy land of medicine in the world. However, the birth of Mo hospital directly puts Taiji hospital in an extremely embarrassing situation. Whether it is the foot disease of the crown prince, the Qi disease of the empress, or the stroke of Emperor Li Yuan, it is treated and treated by Mo hospital, and the Taiji doctors are just a start, which makes Taiji extremely embarrassing.


    In particular, the existence of Qinglong real medicine has made the prestige of Mo hospital reach the peak. If Taiyi hospital can''t have Qinglong real medicine, I''m afraid it won''t be necessary to exist in a long time. This is also the reason why Taiyi order spared no effort to get Qinglong real medicine.


    "However, I don''t know how many people die of illness in Datang every year. If Qinglong real medicine can benefit the world, it will be the gospel of the world!" an imperial censor proudly listed.


    Linghu Deyu also came out of the crowd: "Qinglong real medicine is so magical, but the daily output is extremely limited. If you can make more Qinglong real medicine, it will be a unique weapon for the Ministry of rites. Take this medicine to open a way in the western countries and make friends with the dignitaries of the western countries. Ask which of the western countries is not obedient to our Datang."


    The ministers couldn''t help but move. Linghu dehu''s words immediately raised the value of Qinglong real medicine by three points again. Once Datang uses Qinglong genuine medicine to control the life and death of other countries, I''m afraid Datang will run rampant in the western regions from then on.


    Merton couldn''t help looking at Linghu dehu coldly. Linghu dehu spared no effort to get Qinglong real medicine for the ritual department. I''m afraid it''s selfish. If the ritual Department has a lot of Qinglong real medicine, I''m afraid Linghu dehu can easily get one for his mother.


    Sun Simiao understood what all officials meant. It turned out that it was a joint effort to force the Mohists and doctors to hand over the formula of Qinglong real medicine.


    "Mohism loves the world and such ideas are admired by the world. If mohou could take the initiative to announce the formula of Qinglong real medicine to the world, wouldn''t it be in line with Mohist ideas." Du Yan stepped out of the column and sang with everyone, applying both soft and hard.


    All officials spoke out one after another. Some praised the Mohist school, some made powerful statements, some asked for orders for the common people in the world, and some said frankly that the Mohist school was greedy for profit, controlled the Qinglong real medicine and searched for the people''s fat and ointment.


    After all, Qinglong real medicine is actually a peerless weapon, and it is a peerless weapon that can determine the life and death of countless people. If it is only in the hands of Mohism, no one can be stable.


    "You are not ordinary people, but senior officials of the court. That''s how you act. Seeing good things from others is like robbing them. What''s the difference between this and robbers." Merton looked at the faces of the officials with a joking face.


    "Er!" suddenly, all the officials turned red. They said benevolence, righteousness and morality. However, they subconsciously ignored a major premise, that is, the formula of Qinglong real medicine belongs to Mohism. They pretended to be generous with Mohist things. If they had a formula that can fight gold now, I''m afraid they wouldn''t want to make it public.


    "Dr. Sun, you are compassionate. I''m afraid you don''t want to see the people of the Tang Dynasty leave in pain because of lack of medicine." Ling hude turned his head and asked Sun Simiao.


    Sun Simiao couldn''t help falling into a dilemma. As a doctor, he naturally hoped to have a steady stream of Qinglong real medicine, so that no matter how many patients the doctor could easily treat.


    The Mohist school has made great contributions to the success of doctors today. In addition, Qinglong real medicine was originally developed by Mohist school. All drugs are dominated by doctors. Mohist school has great kindness to doctors. If he stabbed Mohist school at this moment, I''m afraid it would be contrary to medical ethics.


    Sun Simiao thought for a moment and said, "it''s normal that Qinglong real medicine has just been developed successfully and the output is scarce. Moreover, the Mohist school has made efforts to expand the production. I believe that before long, Qinglong real medicine can be supplied on a large scale and people all over the world can be cured."


    "Mass production!" all officials couldn''t help shrinking their eyes.


    They can hear that the price of Qinglong genuine medicine is 500 Wen per piece. If the Mohist Qinglong genuine medicine is mass produced and supplied to the whole country, I''m afraid it will be rich in less than a year and a half. I''m afraid no one wants to see such a powerful Mohist.


    "How much manpower and material resources does a Mojia village alone have? Even if the medicine produced can supply Chang''an, it would be good. What about Luoyang? Jiangnan? Even Lingnan? Can the Mojia supply it, and how can everyone afford the sky high price of 500 Wen?" Du Yan shook his head.


    "Please also pay attention to the common people in the world! Disclose the formula of Qinglong real medicine. In this way, all doctors in the world can cultivate Qinglong real medicine. If people get medical treatment, its price can be greatly reduced and benefit the world." Kong Yingda listed.


    Although Confucianism is the top of 100 schools, if the Mohists really control the Qinglong real medicine in their own hands, with such divine medicine as Qinglong real medicine, under the threat of life and death, it may be just around the corner for the Mohists to surpass Confucianism.


    Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of war, jumped out and said, "it is said that Qinglong real medicine has the most miraculous effect on trauma. In case of war, the soldiers and men of the whole army don''t know how many people are injured. If enough Qinglong real medicine can be cured, it will be a blessing for the soldiers and men of the whole army."


    The strategists are also sure to get the green dragon real medicine. If they have the green dragon real medicine, they will have no worries about fighting in the future. Some generals even have a good impression of Merton, which is related to the future of the strategists, and can''t help sighing.


    "Please also pay attention to the common people in the world and disclose the formula of Qinglong real medicine!" the imperial doctor asked with a righteous face.


    Merton saw that the officials were forcing him and said with a sneer, "it''s not simple! The formula of Qinglong real medicine is Qinglong fungus. These strains are available in major tailors in Chang''an city. You can refine them yourself if you are interested."


    Suddenly, the imperial doctor was embarrassed. How could he not have made this idea and had secretly cultivated Qinglong fungi, but he was confused about how to refine it and had no place to start at all.


    Moreover, it was not only secretly cultivated by the imperial doctor''s order, but even other ministers with medicine shops under their names had ordered people to secretly copy it. After all, they were aware of the huge profits. Unfortunately, they all thought too simple and returned in vain. They all joined forces to force the Mohist school to hand over the formula of Qinglong real medicine.


    The imperial doctor said, "what I''m talking about is not the green dragon fungus, but the method of refining the green dragon fungus!"


    Merton looked contemptuously at the imperial doctor''s order and said, "the Qinglong real medicine is refined by the Qinglong fungus, which can''t be observed with the naked eye, and the refining method is extremely complex. Either I underestimate the imperial doctor''s order, or the formula of the Mohist school gives you the Qinglong real medicine, you can''t refine it."


    The imperial doctor was so angry that he said angrily, "the Mohists dare to bully me. I have practiced medicine for decades and am proficient in countless prescriptions. Who else have I served except doctor sun? Even Hua Yuan dare not say such a big word here."


    He was able to serve as the imperial doctor''s order. Naturally, he had some skills. Except Sun Simiao, who was famous all over the world, he really refused to accept. Even the original Huayuan was also the defeated general of his men.


    Merton looked at the doctor and shook his head and sighed: "You are obsessed with officialdom and have lost the original intention of doctors. You are a frog at the bottom of the well when you eat vegetarian food in Taiyuan hospital, but you don''t know that doctors outside have been thousands of miles a day. Now medicine is no longer an era when you can cure it by grabbing a few herbs and boiling soup. You have treated several people in Taiyuan hospital in recent years. Now you are just a sitting doctor in Mo hospital. I''m afraid you are unqualified ¡£¡±


    Although Merton spoke harshly, he did not blame the imperial medical order. With the microscope and Qinglong real medicine, doctors have changed dramatically, and the previous set of imperial medical order has fallen behind.


    Moreover, the imperial doctor''s order only treats the palace and dignitaries in the palace, and can have several patients, which is not as experienced as the sitting doctor in Shangmo hospital who receives hundreds of patients a day.


    "Ignorant child, how dare you deceive me! Doctor sun, you are a senior of Xinglin, and you can comment!" the imperial doctor''s order flew into a rage and shouted at Sun Simiao.


    Sun Simiao looked at the imperial doctor''s order with pity and said, "although what Marquis Mo said is extreme, it doesn''t make sense. The real medical skills are accumulated in constantly treating patients. This is also the reason why I rejected the imperial court''s signs. I have seen your prescription. The prescription is stable. I don''t want to be reactive, but want to be flawless. Even ordinary doctors in Mo hospital don''t want to be so."


    He had long been dissatisfied with the imperial doctor''s order. If he had not given the prescription to empress Chang sun too smoothly, why would empress Chang sun''s condition have deteriorated so much.


    "I.................................." the imperial doctor''s order rushed to his head. He practiced medicine all his life and now he has fallen into disrepute. Doesn''t he want to prescribe medicine? There are all dignitaries in the palace. If one of them goes wrong, his imperial doctor''s order can''t get rid of it. Over time, his prescription becomes stable.


    "All right!" Li Shimin waved his hand to stop the chaos in the hall.


    The imperial doctor ordered him to go down the slope, and his face retreated bitterly.


    "Merton is not the secret skill of the Mohist School plotted by all officials of the imperial court, but the Qinglong genuine medicine is related to the life and death of the people. It is of great use no matter in which department. There are countless people dying and waiting for divine medicine to save their lives. I can''t bear it. That''s why the Mohist School and doctors came to discuss this matter." Li Shimin lamented and sympathized with humanity.


    The Mohist School and the medical school have just cured the empress Chang sun. Naturally, it is not easy for him to rob the Qinglong real medicine. However, if the Mohist school is allowed to control the life and death of the people all over the world, it is also unfavorable to the rule of the royal family.


    Merton could not help being silent for a while. He naturally heard Li Shimin''s meaning and had to explain: "Wei Chen has just said that Qinglong real medicine is too precise and needs the cooperation of the whole Mohist industrial system to succeed. Even if they know the formula, I''m afraid they can''t refine it."


    Hou Junji sneered: "it''s a joke! Marquis Mo is also arrogant. I''ve heard a saying that the disciples of the church starve to death. Therefore, when folk masters teach land skills, they will keep their unique skills. Marquis Mo is the leader of Mohism and won''t be infected with these folk bad habits!"


    Hou Junji was born in Cao Mang and had a deep understanding of the folk. Naturally, he had already known these dark sides of the folk.


    "Hold on!"


    Suddenly, many people focused on Merton.

 Chapter 949

    Merton proudly said, "it''s a bad habit of folk craftsmen to keep a hand. The achievements of the Mohist school today can only be achieved by passing down the Mohist skills from generation to generation. Naturally, there will be no saying of keeping a hand."


    "However, the refining of Qinglong real medicine is not only extremely precise, but also needs the cooperation of several materials made by exclusive Mohist secret techniques, and these exclusive Mohist techniques also need the assistance of several other Mohist techniques. If they are made public, I''m afraid the whole Mohist ink technique will be spied again and be exposed to the crisis of secret technique leakage." Merton''s words changed his way.


    "Why is it difficult? Does the imperial court bear the loss of Mohism this time? As long as it can make the people all over the world use divine medicine, I am very relieved!" Li Shimin waved his heroic hand. Compared with the value created by Qinglong real medicine, he did not pay attention to the loss of Mohism village.


    One side of the Dai Zhou couldn''t help but draw in his heart. Li Shimin said it was light, and finally asked the Ministry of the people to pay.


    "Your Majesty is kind-hearted. If you try to push and block again, you will not be appreciated." Merton thought and nodded.


    When all the officials heard the speech, they suddenly showed a proud smile on their faces. Together, the Mohist school really stepped back. At the thought of the value of Qinglong real medicine formula, everyone couldn''t help feeling excited. This is a gold mine!


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "you just need to truthfully report the loss of Mohism this time, even if I bought your secret skills."


    Merton shook his head and said, "Your Majesty doesn''t have to spend a penny. I have a way to have the best of both worlds."


    "Tell me about it!" Li Shimin felt a strange way when he heard that he didn''t have to spend money.


    Merton turned to Hou Junji and said: "General Hou said just now that there is a bad habit among folk craftsmen called ''leave it alone''. It seems that this bad habit has saved the master''s job, but its harm is endless. The craftsmanship of Mohism pays attention to inheritance, and some crafts can be further developed above other crafts. If the middle is delayed by one person, it will be delayed for decades, or even lost from now on Pass. "


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, nodded heavily. This is indeed the biggest disadvantage of craftsmen, even the great craftsmen of the Ministry of work.


    Merton continued: "the craftsmanship of Mohism is also handed down from generation to generation. Mo''s achievements today are just standing on the shoulders of previous Mohist predecessors. If one of his predecessors suddenly left a hand on this way, I''m afraid there will be no revival of today''s Mohism."


    People can''t help but sigh. I''m afraid only the selfless spirit of Mohism can have the revival of Mohism today.


    "However, these craftsmen are hateful, but there are pitiful things. Their hard-working skills are the basis for their survival. If they teach their disciples, they will lose their jobs and even be thrown out of the door. Just as the Mohists have invested huge human, material and financial resources in the research and development of ink technology, although it is beneficial to the world, it is required All the money invested in public dedication has been wasted. "Merton said, and all the officials couldn''t help showing an unnatural look. They took care of the interests of the world, but ignored the interests of the Mohists.


    "People all over the world seem to benefit in a short time, but they don''t know that if Mohism continues to invest and can''t get foreign exchange return, I''m afraid they will no longer have the enthusiasm to develop new ink technology. Even one day, Mohist village will be unable to make ends meet and gradually decline, so that no new ink technology will be born in the end. In the long run, the loss to the world is far greater than the immediate harvest." Merton said mercilessly.


    "We are indeed short-sighted!" Wei Zheng sighed and said mercilessly. Whether they are craftsmen or they want to give ink skills publicly for the Mohist school, they are only concerned about the immediate interests.


    "What''s the best of both worlds method that Mo Hou said?" Fang Xuanling thought deeply, but she couldn''t catch the light.


    "If you want to have the best of both worlds, you should not only have immediate interests, but also take into account long-term interests. I wonder if you have ever known that whoever develops a new product in Mohism can enjoy half of this product." Merton Lang said.


    "Silver mirror!" Fang Xuanling blurted out.


    "Merton nodded and said," yes, the little apprentice Wu Meiniang''s silver mirror is half of the silver mirror. If each silver mirror is sold for 100 Wen, the little apprentice enjoys the income of five Wen. It is called patent fee in the Mohist school! "


    "Patent fee?" they were puzzled.


    Merton explained: "this product is an exclusive creation, and it has never appeared before, and I enjoy the exclusive right to this product. If others want to use it, they naturally have to pay me. This is called patent fee. It took only a year for a child to develop a silver mirror, and I have received a patent fee of 800 yuan!"


    "800 Guan!" the crowd could not help exclaiming. The annual income of 800 Guan was much more than their salary, and it was earned by a teenage girl.


    At this time, everyone understood what Merton wanted to do. I''m afraid he also wanted to collect the patent fee of Qinglong real medicine.


    "It''s easy to do. I''ll allow you to collect the patent fee of Qinglong genuine medicine as long as you disclose the secret recipe of Qinglong genuine medicine. How about half a molecule?" Li Shimin waved his hand and said frankly. In this way, the imperial court doesn''t have to pay, the people can use good medicine, and the Mohist school also has corresponding benefits. It''s like killing three birds with one arrow.


    "Thank you, your majesty! But I haven''t finished my words yet." Merton said with a bitter smile, "The patent fee can be divided into two parts, and can also be directly bought out by paying a sum of money directly. On the same day, the minister competed with Li Yun, a member of Xiangfu''s family, to buy the patent of Li Yun''s folding ruler, so he directly paid a thousand dollars to buy the patent of Li Yun''s folding ruler. Unfortunately, the patent fee of the Mohist school has been wasted. Countless craftsmen in Chang''an City imitated the folding ruler, but no one paid to the Mohist school, I''m afraid it''s impossible to recover the cost if it''s a folding ruler in this life. "


    Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing: "I didn''t expect you to lose money, too!"


    All officials couldn''t help laughing. It''s not easy to see the Mohist eat flat.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "a thousand passes is nothing to the Mohist school, but if it is put on an ordinary person, he works hard for a year, a few years, and even exhausts his family''s wealth. He developed goods that benefit the country and the people, but he didn''t receive a penny in return. Do you think he will spend a few more years developing new goods?"


    All officials were immediately silent. They said great righteousness. Everyone knew that if food and clothing were not solved, the so-called great righteousness was just a joke.


    "On the contrary, if this person develops new goods and delivers them to others for use, he will not only continue to develop them, but even more people will follow suit. Under the trend of interests and reputation, he will develop more new goods that are beneficial to the country and the people. Over time, not only does he not leave a hand behind, he can contribute more to the country It''s good for the country and the people. "Merton said proudly.


    Li Shimin could not help nodding. The reason for the prosperity of Mohism is not the continuous emergence of new products. Each new product will make Mohism more prosperous and bring great wealth to the Tang Dynasty.


    "Therefore, I sincerely ask your majesty to enact a patent law to protect the hard work of craftsmen all over the world and encourage craftsmen all over the world to take the initiative to disclose their secret skills, so that craftsmen can get corresponding remuneration, and other craftsmen can confirm each other and emerge more secret skills. I once said that if you want to be poor, you can go to a higher level. At that time, let alone Qinglong real medicine, with the development of generations, In the future, there will be better drugs than Qinglong real medicine. "Merton bowed to the ground and solemnly requested.


    Through the ages, there have been countless capable people and scholars with unique knowledge for thousands of years. However, due to the bad habits of craftsmen, they have finally been lost. If they can be carried forward under the protection of the patent law, the future will be another scene.


    "Patent law!" Li Shimin shrunk his eyes. He didn''t expect that Merton had such ambition that he specifically asked the court to compile a law for this purpose. However, the future scene described by Merton in the patent law really moved him. This is indeed a lot of benefits for Datang.


    Other ministers also carefully panheng. They naturally know that the patent law is good for Mohists and craftsmen, but it is not bad for them. It is also cost-effective to exchange it for Qinglong real medicine.


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, flashed his eyes and said, "mohou just said to let craftsmen all over the world apply for patents for people to use. I don''t know whether Mohist secret skills also apply for patents for workshops all over the world."


    "Of course, the same is true! As long as the Mohist family applies for a patent, it can be used by people all over the world." Merton nodded without hesitation.


    "The secret of steelmaking! Is it in it!" an official of the Ministry of works asked tentatively.


    "Yes!" Merton nodded without hesitation.


    Suddenly, everyone in the Ministry of industry was surprised. No one thought that the steel-making secret technology cherished by the Mohists would be actively disclosed because of the patent law.


    "What about the glass secret skill?" an aristocratic family said with hope on his face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "glass secret technology is a luxury, not urgently needed in the world. The Mohist school will keep it secret temporarily and will not make it public. Of course, since the Mohist school has not applied for a patent and is cracked and applied for a patent by others in the world in the future, the Mohist school will also pay him a patent fee."


    Naturally, all officials were very smart. They immediately understood that Merton''s intention was to encourage craftsmen to apply for patents at the first time in case someone left a hand. I''m afraid there are few ordinary people who can keep secrets as strictly as Mohist. This is also the reason why Mohist has no fear to retain its glass secret technology.


    "Mo Hou''s move is good, but it''s too big for the lion to open his mouth. It makes a silver mirror secret skill earn 800 Guan a year. If it takes 100 years, wouldn''t it be 80000 Guan!" Dai Zhou frowned. He was most sensitive to numbers and was keenly aware of it.


    Merton shook his head and said: "Lord Dai, I don''t know. The so-called patent is not only that you can develop it. You can also develop it in a different time. It''s just that you can do it some time in advance. If you keep collecting patent fees, it''s also inappropriate. Therefore, the term of patent fees is 20 years. After 20 years, the patent will be made public and the people of Datang can use it for free."


    "Twenty years!" Dai Zhou nodded slightly. The time was short, the interests of craftsmen were damaged, and the patent charging time was too long, which was not conducive to the workshop. Twenty years was a suitable time limit,


    "Mohism is so calculating that it has such a grand layout!" Kong Yingda took a deep breath and naturally could see from his eyes how good the patent law would be for Mohism once it was promulgated. From then on, there must be an endless stream of ink technology, and Mohism must be booming.


    However, Merton''s move is a conspiracy. Even Kong Yingda can''t stop it if he understands the intention of the Mohist. After all, the Mohist is bought with the formula of Qinglong real medicine, and it is also equipped with the secret steelmaking skill of the Mohist. If he stops it, he may have to ask whether the doctor, the Ministry of industry, the Ministry of war, the royal family and the people all over the world agree or not.


    In addition, Confucianism controls the official career and Mohism involves craftsmen. There is no great conflict between the two.


    "OK! I''ll rely on you once. I know that Han Fuzi is in Mojia village. You let Han Fuzi compile a good patent law and submit it to the three provinces for review. If it passes, I will incorporate it into the law of Zhenguan." Li Shimin said firmly that he had to let Han Fuzi compile it. Only Mojia village in the whole Tang Dynasty attaches importance to patents, I''m afraid only Han Fuzi, who knows the most about Mojia village, can complete the compilation of the patent law.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Merton breathed a sigh of relief. With the patent law, the revival of Mohism is just around the corner.

 Chapter 950

    "Mohism will announce the formula of Qinglong real medicine!"


    The news spread in Chang''an City, and people who heard it couldn''t help but be in an uproar.


    "That''s great, so there won''t be such a shortage of Qinglong real medicine!" many patients cried with joy. Qinglong real medicine is extremely rare. Even if it''s 500 Wen a piece, it''s still hard to get a needle. After Mohist school makes public the formula of Qinglong real medicine, countless people will copy it. In this way, the number of Qinglong real medicine will surely surge and there will be no shortage again.


    "It is said that in the Mohist hospital, a needle of Qinglong real medicine costs 500 Wen. The Mohist school has abandoned a golden mountain!" some people can''t help but smack their tongue and quietly calculate an account for the Mohist school. They can''t help but startle themselves. The loss of the Mohist school is an astronomical figure.


    A well-informed man shook his head and said, "you think Mohist is stupid! It is said that Mohist uses Qinglong real medicine to exchange for the patent law of the imperial court. In the future, Whoever produces Qinglong real medicine will give half of Mohist every one. Although Mohist has lost the opportunity to dominate Qinglong real medicine, it can sit down and collect money and make a lot of money."


    The crowd nodded. Although they knew that the Mohists did not make a lot of money sitting on the ground, everyone knew that compared with the profits brought by dominating Qinglong real medicine, half of the patent fees might not be enough.


    "If only I had a unique patent!"


    For a while, Qinglong real medicine and patent fees became the hottest topic in Chang''an city.


    "Patent fee! I''m not as much as Mohist!" at Gongshu''s home, Gongshu Hong couldn''t help sighing when he saw the introduction of patent fee in Mohist magazine.


    "The so-called patent fee is just the product of the compromise of mojiazi to keep Qinglong real medicine! Unexpectedly, even tangtangmojiazi can''t keep the secret recipe in his hand." the public loser can''t help laughing.


    Gongshu Hao said with a heavy face: "since ancient times, our craftsmen have a low status. In order to keep our family unique skills, my craftsmen have worked hard. At first, they have left a reputation, at last, they have been forced by dignitaries, and even their families have been destroyed. Brother Mo''s move is a compromise, but it doesn''t lose a way. The so-called patent fee is also a kind of compensation for craftsmen."


    The sons of public losers can''t help being silent. As the leader of craftsmen, public losers have naturally been used to all kinds of tragedies caused by dignitaries coveting craftsmen''s secret recipe. Patent fees can enable craftsmen to obtain huge wealth in a short time, which will greatly reduce the tragedies suffered by craftsmen in order to keep the secret recipe.


    "Inform the master of the house that the Mozi family sent a worship note and invited the public losers to visit the ink house tomorrow to discuss the patent law!" suddenly, a child of the public loser came in a hurry and sent a beautiful worship note.


    "Invite public losers to visit Qinglong real medicine! Mozi is so confident that he is not afraid of public losers to crack Mozi''s Secret skills!" the public loser wheel raised his eyebrows. In his opinion, Merton''s move is simply provoking public losers.


    Gongshuhao shook his head and said, "it is said that Qinglong real medicine can''t be observed by the naked eye. It''s beyond our understanding. Even if you see it with your own eyes, I''m afraid you can''t copy it. Father, I want to see the highest craft of Mohism with my own eyes!"


    In Chang''an City, it is said that the green dragon fungus of Mohism was produced by integrating the most advanced technology of Mohism. As a child of Gongshu family, Gongshu Hao is naturally unwilling to give up this opportunity.


    "Since the Mohists invited me, it''s better for my public loser to obey orders. My father doesn''t care about Qinglong real medicine. What really makes my father care about is the patent law that changes the fate of craftsmen." Gongshu Hong said firmly. From his perspective, we can naturally see that once the patent law is implemented, it will make earth shaking changes to the craftsmen of Datang.


    The next day, when Gongshu Hong came to the Mo mansion as promised, they found that the whole Mo mansion was full of hundreds of families.


    Even the shameless imperial doctor''s order, who was run by the Mohist family on the court hall, had the cheek to come. He wanted to see what difficulties the so-called Qinglong real medicine had. It made the Mohist family so arrogant that he thought he couldn''t make it even if he told himself the formula.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the laboratory of Qinglong fungus. We can only visit it outside because we want to keep it absolutely clean!" outside the Mohist laboratory, Merton showed a dense Petri dish to hundreds of people through a huge glass.


    "This is the green dragon fungus?" people from hundreds of families were surprised when they saw the dense cyan strains. No one thought that their common mold would become a magic medicine for treating diseases.


    Merton couldn''t help smiling and said, "the strains here are the ones with the best efficacy collected by Mohists who searched the major tailor shops in Chang''an city. If you want these strains to grow well, you must have appropriate temperature and humidity. A slight error will affect the efficacy."


    The imperial doctor ordered that the hospital could not do these conditions alone. The growth of Qinglong fungus cultivated by him was very different from the strains in front of him.


    "The Mexican family applied the cultivation method of the peasant family to this!" Gongshu Hong sighed. It was said that the Mexican family also trained hundreds of families. Many people didn''t think so. However, when he saw that the Mexican family used the farming technology to cultivate green dragon fungi, he immediately admired it. I''m afraid only the Mexican family can use the 100 family technology at their fingertips and apply it to one heart.


    Merton Lang said: "as we all know, when the temperature is high, everything grows, and the green dragon fungus is no exception, so the temperature in the room for cultivating strains is quite high, and the children of the Mohists can wear single clothes."


    Merton pointed to the busy Mohist children in the fungus room. Although it was winter, they were still in thin clothes.


    "However, the extraction of Qinglong real medicine is not the case. It needs a very low temperature for the best effect." Merton pointed to another piece of Mohist children in heavy experimental clothes in the laboratory, Lang said.


    Compared with the accuracy of Mohism, his previous behavior was full of loopholes. It was a joke to be able to cultivate success.


    "Moreover, the process of extracting Qinglong real medicine is extremely complex. It needs to add several raw materials that can only be produced by Mohists, and the output is extremely rare!" Merton said helplessly.


    It''s amazing that he can produce more than 30 injections every day. If he wants to speed up, he''s afraid he''ll have to fight for human, material and financial resources. Otherwise, the full production of Qinglong genuine medicine in Mojia village is not enough for many people. This is also the reason why Merton agreed to disclose the formula of Qinglong real medicine.


    Under Merton''s sign, the Mohist children in the laboratory showed everyone how to refine Qinglong real medicine across the glass. Even the imperial doctor opened his eyes and focused on every move of the Mohist children, but found that what he did was futile. He didn''t even know what the Mohist children added, How to extract Qinglong real medicine.


    "The ink skill of Mohist village has reached such a level." Tian Mou, who is in charge of recording, witnessed the preparation process of Qinglong real medicine. He couldn''t help but be shocked. In contrast, Xiangfu, who is also a Mohist, has stood still for thousands of years. I''m afraid they are not even as good as the imperial medical order.


    "The last thing is to test the medicine. After each batch of medicine is manufactured, you must test the medicine to see whether it is non-toxic and how the medicine is known." Merton took the people to the last experiment. He saw that many cages in the laboratory were filled with white mice. A child of the Mohist school is testing medicine with a white mouse with a hollow needle syringe.


    "Hollow needle!" when the public losers saw the hollow needle syringe in the hands of the children of the Mohists, they couldn''t help shrinking their eyes. At that time, the Mohists spent a lot of money to invite the public losers to create a perfect hollow needle. It can be said that the public losers tried their best, but still ended in failure!


    When he heard that the Mohist village had created a hollow needle, the public loser still didn''t give up. However, he still had no clue until today. Now when he saw the Mohist hollow needle, he wanted to see what was wonderful about the perfect hollow needle made by Mohist.


    "I wonder if Gongshu family can have a look at the Mohist hollow needle!" Gongshu Hong was not satisfied.


    All of a sudden, the hearts of hundreds of people were happy. Naturally, they knew that the Mohist school asked the public loser for help with the hollow needle. At present, they couldn''t help but stop and be happy to see a joke.


    "What''s the difficulty?" Merton smiled and stretched out his hand. A son of the Mohists handed Gongshu Hong a brand-new injection.


    Gongshu Hong took the injection and carefully looked at the smooth and transparent needle body on the upper surface of the hollow needle. Although it was only as thick as an ordinary needle, it had a uniform hollow. What made Gongshu Hong smack his tongue was that there was no gap on the surface of the hollow needle, which was the most convincing place for him.


    "The Mohist School''s superb skills are admired by the public losers!" Gongshu Hong said sincerely. These crafts can''t be made by hand, and the public losers won''t be wronged at all.


    "At the beginning, I would like to thank the public losers for their great help." Merton sincerely said,


    Although gongshuhong didn''t complete the hollow needle in the end, the hollow needle made by gongshujia is the limit of manual technology. If Lao Zhang didn''t have a flash of inspiration, I''m afraid he can only replace it with gongshujia''s imperfect hollow needle in the end.


    "I don''t know if the process of this needle is also among the Mohist patents!" Gongshu Hong said excitedly. This hollow process is very practical. Once some products of Gongshu family are promoted on a large scale, it can not only greatly reduce the weight, but also save a lot of materials.


    Merton nodded and said, "this process will be patented in the near future. The Mohists will not hide."


    Gongshu Hong nodded with satisfaction. Although he was not interested in Qinglong real medicine, the process of harvesting hollow needle was also a surprise. Although he would pay some patent fees, compared with the raw materials saved by hollow needle, half of the patent fees were nothing!


    "Mo Hou really didn''t say anything. The Mohist school just disclosed the formula of Qinglong real medicine. I''m afraid we still can''t refine it. Next, we need the Mohist School''s strong help. As for the patent law, the Ministry of military will strongly support it." Hou Junji, the Minister of military, immediately looked cheerful when he saw that Qinglong real medicine was still inseparable from the Mohist School''s help.


    Kong Yingda could not help humming for a while. With the support of the Ministry of war, the Mohist school would pass the patent law in the chaotang hall, leaving less opportunities for Confucianism to make the loop.


    Many aristocratic families also nodded. The promulgation of the patent law is also good for them. They can get the craftsman''s Secret skills for a little money, which is much better than forcing others to break down their families before. It is also easy to leave a bad reputation. Once the imperial court catches the stain and handle, they may not be able to eat it all.


    In particular, many people are greedy for the Mohist art. Many aristocratic families are ready to coax the Mohist family to revise the patent law, and then disclose the Mohist art, or take the opportunity to enjoy the dividends of a wave of Mohist art.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing. Naturally, he was happy to see the success of this result. The patent law is the guarantee for the prosperity of Mohism. Although the dominant Mohist village took the opportunity to gather a large number of wealth, this act of eating alone will often attract the siege of hundreds of other families. Moreover, if the Mohist village continues to grow, its wealth will accumulate day by day and become invincible over time, I''m afraid that one day even the imperial court may not accommodate Mojia village.


    According to Merton''s vision, the future Mojia village will not be an industrial base with factories everywhere, but will become a Mohist Holy Land integrating industry, University and research similar to the later Silicon Valley. It only specializes in the most cutting-edge ink technology and can earn a lot by relying on patent fees.


    Not only will it not be hostile to the government and the public, but it will use ink technology patents to become the object pursued by countless workshops, become the wind vane of Datang industry, and influence the trend of Datang industry.


    Of course, if he wants the patent law to be implemented smoothly, he has to deal with one of the biggest obstacles, that is, the Confucianists who dominate the imperial court.

 Chapter 951

    "The patent law is being drafted by Han Fuzi. I''d like to gather you today to visit the refining of Qinglong real medicine. Another reason is that Han Fuzi wants to solicit the opinions of hundreds of families for the revision of the patent law. Please don''t hesitate to give advice." Merton arched his hand.


    "Master Mo, you''re welcome!" a hundred people arched their hands. Everyone knew that the patent law was bought by the Mozi who gave up the real medicine of dominating Qinglong. How can they care about their opinions.


    "Please, Mr. Han, wait a long time!"


    At the invitation of Merton, the people moved from the laboratory to the living room of the Mohist house. They saw that the legalist Han Zhenghan had already waited.


    "Legalist Han Zheng has seen you!" Han Zheng said solemnly.


    "You''re welcome, brother Han!" Kong Yingda arched his hand when he saw Han Zheng.


    Han Zheng has served as a doctor of the Imperial College for many years and has been a close friend of Kong Yingda for many years. Han Zheng resigned angrily because of Li Shimin''s amnesty for 300 dead prisoners. Kong Yingda also failed to retain him for many times. Of course, he was angry that Han Zheng joined the Mojia village.


    Facts have proved that Han Zheng''s joining the Mojia village is the most correct choice. In a few years, although Han Zheng resigned from his official position, his reputation between the government and the public is rising day by day. The Legalists have nothing to say about the governance of the Mojia village. A legal column points out and analyzes the case and criticizes the unjust, false and wrong cases, which has frightened many officials.


    "Brother Kong!" Han Zheng straightened up and bowed back.


    "Han Fuzi!"


    "Dr. Han!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people greeted one after another, but they admired the legalist legacy of this iron bone clank.


    Han Fuzi saluted one by one and invited you in. Lang said: "The Mohist patent law coincides with my ideas for many years. I have studied many cases of wrong cases of my enemies. In order to keep the secret recipe in their hands, some craftsmen can say that they do their best to pass on men rather than women, and children rather than daughter-in-law. There is also the saying that the disciples of the church starve to death. What''s more, in order to keep their secret recipe, a family dies generously for generations, whether they are threatened by others I''d rather die than say whether it''s coercion, inducement or torture. I just want my offspring to have a secret recipe to make a comeback. As soon as the patent law comes out, I believe that such tragedies will be greatly reduced. "


    For Legalists, they naturally do not want to see such a tragedy. The emergence of patent law can not only reduce the tragedy, but also fill the gap of such laws.


    They nodded. When Han Zheng said it, they often heard it.


    "As the saying goes, listening at the same time is bright and listening at the same time is dark. Today, I am entrusted by your majesty and Marquis Mo to revise the patent law. Please give me more advice." Han Zheng arched his hand.


    The imperial doctor''s order on one side didn''t achieve his purpose. He was already unhappy and sneered: "this patent law is good for Mohists and craftsmen. It has nothing to do with doctors. Can we doctors still apply for patents on our own prescriptions?"


    Han Zheng shook his head and said, "it''s natural that you can''t apply for a patent for a prescription, but if a doctor can develop a medicine to cure diseases, you can apply for a patent for this medicine and then refine it into a medicine, then the patent of this medicine is yours. It''s natural for you to operate exclusively or charge a patent fee. Qinglong real medicine is the best example."


    The imperial medical order can''t help but brighten his eyes. This is great good news for doctors. Once there is patent encouragement, doctors can say that they accept both fame and wealth and will actively develop new drugs. Although he has been separated from the people for a long time, he is also a doctor after all. Naturally, he hopes that doctors will be more prosperous. This is also his duty.


    "The patent law does not only serve the Mohist family. All the hundred families can apply for patents as long as they are unique." Han Zheng said proudly.


    Han Zheng answered all the other hundred people''s inquiries and questions one by one, and gladly adopted their original opinions. The public losers alone adopted as many as five suggestions.


    Kong Yingda could not help nodding slightly. This is what he most appreciates Han Zheng. Han Zheng, as a legalist legacy, is always upright. Even if he lives in Mojia village, he will not favor Mojia at all.


    "Unfortunately, the so-called patent law is not good for Confucianism, brother Han, I''m sorry!" Kong Yingda sighed. With the patent law, Mohism is destined to soar, and Confucianism can''t help mixing sand into it.


    "As for the patent law, I still have some opinions to consult Confucianism!" Han Zheng suddenly and solemnly asked Kong Yingda for advice.


    "Confucianism!" Kong Yingda was stunned and said in surprise, "brother Han, I''m afraid I asked the wrong person! The patent law has nothing to do with Confucianism!"


    Han Zheng said proudly, "no, the world believes that the patent law is only beneficial to Mohists and doctors. However, according to Han, Confucianism is the most profitable."


    "Confucianism benefits the most?" Kong Yingda couldn''t help but open her eyes and looked at Han Zheng inconceivably. Anyone knew that the patent law was put forward by the Mohist family for Mohists and craftsmen. The other hundred schools were just a little light by the way. How did Han Zheng say that Confucianism became the biggest beneficiary.


    Han Zheng nodded and said, "yes! The so-called patent is the exclusive right of individual originality. However, a craftsman may not have a patent for his whole life. However, for literati, there is one thing that can apply for a patent, that is copyright."


    "Copyright!" Kong Yingda suddenly understood Han Zheng''s meaning.


    In terms of originality, the literati''s poems, songs, and articles are not all original things that have not been created by their predecessors. How many poems and articles emerge every year throughout the Tang Dynasty, and which literati has few poems. Once these copyrights are protected and profitable, what good news for literati.


    "The inspiration of copyright also comes from the royalties of Ink magazine. Every time I contribute to the legal column, Mohist Association Merton immediately filled with indignation and said:" needless to say, the boy''s poetry, even the ink magazine Liang Zhu, which was painstakingly written, has sold only 100000 copies, while other bookstores have sold millions of pirated copies. "


    Although he knows that Merton is singing in harmony with Han Zheng, Kong Yingda can''t refute it. Nowadays, no matter how talented the literati are, the poems they write have no benefits other than fame. If the patent law includes copyright, the literati will receive both fame and wealth, and will immediately be supported by the literati all over the world. If he openly opposes the patent law, he will be punished by thousands What I mean.


    "Mohist is good at calculating!" Kong Yingda sighed. Merton tied Confucianism firmly to the same ship with copyright. If Confucianism does not agree with the patent law, it will naturally veto its own copyright. The secret skills of Mohist and craftsmen can be kept secret, and the loss is not large. However, literati Poetry is a sharp weapon for fame. If the copyright is lost, it will be a heavy loss.


    "From mohou''s point of view, how long should the copyright of poetry and articles be enjoyed? Is it not just 20 years!" Kong Yingda asked with patience.


    When Morton saw this, he immediately knew that Kong Yingda had promised to cooperate. He couldn''t help smiling and said: "Poetry, song and Fu are different from the secret skills of Mohism. The secret skills of Mohism exist in heaven and earth itself, but we were lucky to find them first, while poetry, song and Fu were created by ourselves. If we create a poem and hide it, the same poem will not appear in a hundred years and a thousand years. Therefore, no matter who created the poem for me, the copyright will belong to him all his life."


    Kong Yingda looked satisfied when he saw that Merton raised the literary copyright so much.


    However, Kong Yingda was not satisfied with this and solemnly said: "It''s just a lifetime ownership. Kong thinks it''s not appropriate. If there are talented people who write a lot of poems and articles, but suddenly die young, or a magnificent work will often exhaust the literati''s life time. The last time they enjoy the copyright is not as long as the twenty years of Mohist secret skills. Kong thinks that the literati''s copyright can be inherited by their descendants and owned from generation to generation."


    Kong Yingda''s abacus is very good. If future generations can enjoy the copyright of their ancestors, and among scholars, the most valuable copyright is Kong Sheng''s four books and five classics. If the Kong family can benefit from the four books and five classics, the Qufu Kong family can say that it has instantly covered the Mojia village.


    Han Zheng shook his head and retorted: "no, we formulate the patent law to protect the interests of creators on the one hand, and to carry forward secret technology and culture on the other hand. If the copyright is owned by future generations for life, it is not conducive to promotion and communication. It is not contrary to our original intention."


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help looking embarrassed. He immediately knew that his little abacus was seen through by Han Zheng.


    Merton thought and said, "in that case, let''s compromise. The patent right of Mohist ink technology is still 20 years, while the copyright of literati is owned by him for life. His descendants have the copyright within 50 years after his death. 50 years later, it will be owned by the public and become a part of China''s brilliant civilization for thousands of years."


    "Have it for life and 50 years after death!" Kong Yingda nodded slightly. This condition has taken a great advantage compared with the patent right of Mohist school. Although he failed to achieve his goal, he has nothing to say. Moreover, even if he refused, I''m afraid it would be useless. If the literati all over the world heard the news, I''m afraid they would immediately abandon the Kong family and stand on the side of Mohist school.


    "Well, I''ll take the place of those who study all over the world." Kong Yingda said solemnly.


    "Well, in that case, when the patent law compiled by me according to this Ordinance is successful in the future, I hope brother Kong will correct it more." Han zhengshuang said.


    For him, this patent law will be a blank in the laws of previous dynasties. If he can complete it, it will represent the Legalists to further improve it.


    Once the patent law comes out, it will be a win-win situation for the four Confucian and Mohist forensics.

 Chapter 952

    As the news of the patent law came out, people in Chang''an city still didn''t think so. However, after the news of copyright came out, the literati and scholars in Chang''an City cheered.


    "Copyright!"


    Many scholars can''t help but look arrogant. This is the right that scholars all over the world dream of. All the time, the main purpose of writing poetry is to make a name for themselves. There is no profit of a penny at all. Even ordinary scholars, even if it is such amazing poems of Mo Jiazi, are the same.


    However, once the patent law has finalized the copyright of literati, any publication that wants to print their poems will pay relevant fees. For the literati, money is a small matter. More importantly, it is a kind of recognition and glory.


    "Copyright! Kong Yingda was bought by the Mohist school!" asked Wei Sian in the residence of the Confucian journal.


    In his understanding, once the patent law is promulgated, it is obvious that Mohism will benefit the most. As the leader of Confucianism, Kong family can''t sit idly by, but he didn''t expect to be easily bought by a copyright.


    Yu Zhining could not help sighing: "the Mohist school has grasped the weakness of the literati. With copyright, the literati can gain both fame and wealth. No one will refuse, and brother Kong has to push the boat with the current."


    "It''s just a little writing fee!" said wesan with a cold Snort and a look of contempt.


    Yu Zhining shook his head and said, "although we can''t count this money, it has become a way for poor people to make a living.


    Although the one-time polishing fee is very small, it can''t last for a long time! If a scholar has a good reputation and receives the polishing fee in his life, it will certainly be a large amount, not to mention the copyright 50 years after his death, which can be regarded as a way to save money for future generations.


    "Then do we want to build a momentum against the patent law in the Confucian journal!" the editor in chief Ma frowned. Originally, he had asked someone to write an article criticizing mojiazi in order to oppose the patent law of mojiazi, but he didn''t expect a sudden copyright to disrupt their pace.


    Yu Zhining shook his head reluctantly. If they could still make a stumbling block for the Mohist school before, however, the Mohist school would add the copyright to the patent law. If the Mohist journal objects again, the Confucian journal will offend a group of scholars. Is this act of self destruction of the Great Wall done by a wise man.


    "The editor in chief is not good. Mo magazine sends a document to solicit contributions from scholars all over the world." suddenly, an editor of a Confucian magazine came to report.


    Editor in chief Ma said with a smile when he heard the speech: "it''s a big lie in sliding the world. Our literati are the children of saints. How can they fall to the Mohist school? The Mohist school is just insulting itself."


    However, editor in chief Ma did not worry about the behavior of ink journals. Confucianism journals are the authentic Confucian journals. How can scholars all over the world turn to ink journals? Isn''t this a joke to people all over the world? In the end, it was the Mohists who lost face.


    The editor who came to report said with a bitter smile: "the editor in chief doesn''t know. The solicitation of Ink magazine is a paid solicitation. Scholars all over the world can mail their poems. Mohism will set up a poetry column. If the poems submitted are adopted, each poem is calculated according to the word, and the minimum money per word is 100 Wen. If you can reach the level of Mohist poetry, you can get up to 1000 Wen per word."


    "A word is a thousand words!" cried wesan. Even if it is a five character quatrain with a small number of words, that poem is full of 20 runs. If it is a seven character regular poem with a large number of words, it is full of 112 words, that is, 112 runs.


    However, it is worth asking whether the 112 times spent by Mo magazine is worth it. Of course, it is worth it. A poem that can reach a thousand words must be a masterpiece. Such a poem, let alone a thousand words, is not too much.


    The editor who came to report nodded and said, "the number of words of essays and Yuefu Poems is large, from 10 to 100 words per word, and the strategy theory is from one to 10 words per word. Even the legendary novels also offer the highest price of 1000 words and 100 words."


    "Ink magazine is going to fight us!" editor in chief Ma took a cold breath. Before that, if scholars want to publish articles, they will certainly tend to Confucian magazines. However, under the temptation of so much money, I''m afraid there will be a large number of scholars falling to ink magazines.


    "It''s outrageous. Editor in chief Ma, you immediately publish an article in the Confucian journal and tell scholars all over the world that our Confucian journal also pays for contributions. Surely we can''t be compared by the Mohists." Wei Si''an is young and noble. Although it''s a little painful to pay for publishing to scholars all over the world, if the Confucian journal does nothing, it will certainly attract all scholars all over the world. After all, the price of a thousand words is not a small amount.


    Yu Zhining sighed slightly: "if Confucianism journals also solicit contributions, it will fall into the trap of Mohism."


    "What do you say?" Wei Si''an was stunned.


    Yu Zhining explained: "the reason why Mohist scholars have to spend a lot of money to implement paid solicitation is not for Mohist journals, but to improve the value of literati copyright, so as to implement the patent law conducive to Mohist. If Confucian journals also pay for solicitation, wouldn''t it be right in Mohist''s plan, increase the value of copyright, but help Mohist scholars."


    "Why don''t Confucian and Mohist journals fight each other, and we don''t pay for contributions!" Wei Sian asked cautiously.


    Yu Zhining said coldly, "Ink magazine has the largest circulation and gives money. At that time, the best poetry and articles in the world will be submitted to Ink magazine. In less than half a year, ink magazine will run out of Confucianism magazine and close down."


    "Not really! Our Confucian journal is the authentic Confucianism!" editor in chief Ma said with some surprise.


    "No, in the face of money, what''s the use of the so-called false name! Those who contribute are just seeking fame and fortune, not fame and fortune. They are saints who have not produced a person for 500 years. Others let you free twice at a time, and your Confucian journals make a lot of money. Can you have no opinion?" Yu zhininglang said.


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help but say angrily, "in this case, what Confucian journals do is wrong!"


    Yu Zhining nodded and said, "yes, this is the conspiracy of the Mohist school. Even if you collect contributions for a fee, you can only attract some scholars. There will still be a considerable number of scholars to contribute to the Mohist journal!"


    "Why is that?" wesan collapsed.


    "How many articles can a Confucian journal publish and how many scholars there are in the world? The people who contribute to the Confucian journal make a lot of money, while other scholars who are not adopted suffer. Ha ha, can the remaining scholars have no opinion?" Yu Zhining stalled.


    "The Mohist family, it''s really easy to calculate!" Wei Si''an said angrily. A copyright is killing two birds with one stone. It can buy off scholars at one stroke, that is, it can pass the patent law in favor of the Mohist family and get the Mohist magazine out of trouble.


    Editor in chief Ma sighed. There was still a layer of worry in his heart. Although the Wei family had extraordinary financial resources if they were paid for contributions, Wei Si''an, after all, was a second son with limited wealth, which could not be compared with the wealth of the Mohist village, let alone the Mohist family''s expert in turning stone into gold. This time, the Confucian journals must fall into the disadvantage in the dispute between the two literati.

 Chapter 953

    After the Confucian journal also issued articles for paid contributions, it pushed the wave of patent law to a climax. Scholars were ready to stretch out their hands, but Confucianism magazine offered the same conditions as ink magazine. These royalties were not a small amount for scholars from poor families.


    For a moment, an envelope containing the manuscript flew to the Confucian journal like a snowflake. Every scholar took out his favorite works. After all, this is a good opportunity to be famous and profitable.


    In the ink magazine, Tian Mou looked at the mountain of manuscripts in front of him tired, shook his head and said in disappointment: "there are so many poems that none can be used."


    One side of Mo Sany said with a bitter smile: "old Tian, all blame Confucianism for following the trend. Scholars all over the world have submitted their manuscripts to Confucianism, and those who have submitted their poetry manuscripts to Mo are poetry lovers who have not been admitted to children!"


    The Mohist school offered such a heavy bargaining chip that no one came to contribute. Most of them were vendors who had studied, and there were hundreds of other people. Compared with the literati who had been immersed in poetry for many years, the poems they wrote were simply unattractive.


    "In my opinion, although the cashier doesn''t have a degree, his poems are unique and can be used!" Mo San had to pick a general from the short man and find one who can take out his hand.


    Tian Mou looked at it and said helplessly, "it''s just the middle and lower. If it''s compared with Confucian poems, it will be laughed off!"


    Although Tian Mou did not read the Confucian journal, he also knew that the Confucian journal would certainly have countless superior poems to choose from. The poems written by the cashier would fall into the disadvantage without comparison.


    Mo San heard the speech and said helplessly, "up to now, there is only a thousand gold to buy horse bones!"


    Although Mo magazine did not solicit good articles, it can force Confucian magazine to solicit contributions with compensation and increase the value of copyright. That is a great victory, and the money is worth it.


    However, Tian Mou was unwilling to give up. As soon as he took over the Confucian journal, he deeply liked the job and was able to criticize current politics. What a pleasant ambition he had in mind. He had to do his best, even the most remote poetry column.


    "In my opinion, we are the fans of the situation and the onlookers are clear. Ink magazine has the most talented poet. Why do you ask others!" Tian Mou moved in his heart and stroked his beard.


    "The most talented poet!" Mo Sanyi was stunned and suddenly said, "old Tian said young master!"


    Tian Mou snorted coldly, "that''s nature. How many people can surpass Merton in terms of poets in the world? You can certainly compare Confucianism with the ink house by asking for a poem."


    "That''s not good! If we only use the young master''s poems when we solicit contributions, I''m afraid people will gossip!" if Ink magazine sends the contribution fee of poems to Merton, it''s suspected that fat water doesn''t flow to outsiders.


    Tian Mou waved his big hand and said, "it''s easy to do. Then hire two at the same time. Merton''s poems are calculated according to a thousand words, and the poems in the accounting room are calculated according to a thousand words and a hundred words, which is regarded as buying horse bones."


    Mo San nodded helplessly. For today''s plan, it''s the only way.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What, let me write poetry!" in the ink house, Merton looked at the uninvited Mo San with a surprised face.


    Mo nodded and said, "young master, only you can write peerless poems in person, can you save the decline of Mo magazine!"


    Merton was angry and said with a smile, "you think the peerless poems are Chinese cabbage. Grab a handful!"


    Mo San immediately chatted up and felt ashamed. He was still incompetent and even came to embarrass the young master.


    "What''s the matter?" Princess Changle happened to come and asked curiously.


    "It''s Mo San Meng Lang who wants to ask the young master to write a poem for Mo magazine." Mo San is ashamed.


    "Write poetry? I haven''t seen my husband write poetry for a long time!" Princess Changle said coyly.


    Merton immediately raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand, and rebuked Fang Qiu. "Why is it difficult? Madam, wait a minute. I''ll write a poem for you."


    Princess Changle, cheering like a fan, quickly took out paper and pen from the room.


    Merton was looking forward to in the eyes of Princess Changle. At that moment, he was full of pride, picked up his pen and waved at once.


    Mo San was like a mess in the wind. Is this what the young master said?


    Princess Changle ignored the dazed Mo San. She couldn''t wait to grab the rice paper and read it.


    "Ten li Ping Lake is covered with frost, inch inch inch green silk worries about the year of China, looking at each other only at the shape of the moon, only admiring mandarin ducks, not immortals."


    The readers of Princess Changle can''t help being infatuated. She can feel the pure love in this poem only from between the lines.


    "Look at each other at the shape of the moon, only envy mandarin ducks, not immortals!" Mo San was overjoyed when he listened to the poems. Although he didn''t understand the poems, he could also hear that the young master''s poem was much better than that of the accounting room.


    "Xianggong, I don''t know the name of this poem?" Princess Changle saw that Merton had only written four poems, but she didn''t have the name of writing poems.


    Merton thought for a moment and solemnly wrote down four words, "beautiful girl ghost".


    "Beautiful ghost?" Princess Changle said in surprise.


    Merton nodded and said, "this is a very sad and beautiful love story. In the previous dynasty, there was a collection scholar named Ning caichen. Once on the way of collection, he slept in a desolate temple lanruo temple at night............................."


    With Merton''s eloquence, a sad and beautiful love story slowly unfolds.


    Mo San trembled with excitement. He was really right today. He didn''t expect that he not only harvested such classic poems, but also the novels serialized in Mo magazine. He believed that the ghost of a beautiful woman must be no less than the sensation caused by Liang Zhu before.


    Among the ink periodicals, it seems that it is time to finalize the latest issue of ink periodicals, but Mo San, who went to the ink house for poetry, still hasn''t come back.


    "Editor in chief! Can we finalize the edition!" an ink magazine editor came to urge.


    Tian Mou shook his head and said, "don''t panic, wait!"


    This issue is the first issue of paid solicitation. Ink magazine must be popular. As long as you can ask for Merton''s poems, even the delay is worth it.


    After a long time, when Tian Mou couldn''t wait, Mo San hurried back to Mo magazine.


    "But please come to Merton''s poem!" Tian Mou''s eyes lit up.


    Mo Sanyi nodded excitedly, reached out and took out a poem from his arms and handed it to Tian Mou.


    "Beautiful ghost!"


    Tian Mou took it and frowned. He was a rigid and stubborn man. He didn''t like these loving poems. According to his original plan, if he could ask for Mohist''s impassioned frontier fortress poems, it would be the most perfect.


    However, this is not the time for him to be picky. Merton''s love poems are also good. At present, he has the patience to read them.


    "Ten Mile Ping Lake is covered with frost............................"


    Tian Mou read softly and couldn''t help shaking his head slightly. Although this poem is much better than the poems of the accounting room, it is much worse than Merton''s previous poems.


    "Let''s make do with it!" Tian Mou was slightly disappointed. The popularity he expected must be greatly reduced. Maybe it can''t compare with Confucianism.


    One side of Mo San didn''t know Tian Mou''s psychology. He sold Guan Zi and said, "don''t worry, old Tian. This poem alone may not be anything, but if you add this article, you can certainly make this poem immortal!"


    Mo San said, took out a thick manuscript from his arms and handed it to Tian Mou.


    Tian Mou took the manuscript and looked at it heavily. He couldn''t help shrinking his eyes. He saw the same four big characters written on the title page of the manuscript.


    "Ghost of a beautiful girl"


    "This is......" Tian Mou said incredulously.


    Mo San nodded heavily and said, "yes, this is the novel with the same name as this poem, a novel not inferior to Liang Zhu."

 Chapter 954

    "Well, with everyone Feng''s poems this time, the Confucian journal can certainly press the ink journal this time!" Wei Si''an said happily as he looked at the poetry column of the new issue of the Confucian journal.


    "Everyone Feng''s poems are really popular and unique in Chang''an city!" chief editor Ma nodded in agreement. Everyone Feng was introduced by him and appreciated by his boss. He also had a light on his face.


    Everyone Feng is a famous poet in Chang''an city. He is quite famous in Chang''an city. Of course, this is before the birth of Mohist school. Now there is a great debate about copyright. Everyone Feng naturally took advantage of the opportunity to take out his excellent works collected for many years and take advantage of the opportunity to gain both fame and wealth.


    The Confucian journal and the ink journal are paid for contributions at the same time. Feng, who thinks he is the son of a saint, naturally stands firmly on the side of the Confucian journal.


    "I''ll settle the bill for Feng according to 900 words this time. I''m sure the Confucian journal will be popular with paid contributions." Wei Si''an waved his big hand.


    Editor in chief Ma nodded proudly and said, "don''t worry, this time we have a secret weapon. There must be brave men under the heavy money. This time, the Confucian journal got a legendary novel to test the love story between talented people and beautiful dragon women, which makes people love it!"


    Editor in chief Ma couldn''t help but hand a stack of manuscripts to wesan. Wei Si''an''s eyes brightened when he took it. Although this book is not as touching as Mozi''s Liang Zhu, it is better than novelty. The love of human dragon is refreshing!


    "Well, you did a good job this time!" said wesan.


    Editor in chief Ma sighed: "I have to say that although paid solicitation costs a little money, it is definitely worth the money. In this way, ink magazine will not worry about high-quality articles."


    In the past, in order to ask for some manuscripts, Confucian journals simply asked their grandparents to sue them. Sometimes just giving gifts cost a lot of money. After paying for manuscripts, the situation has changed greatly.


    Many scholars took out their manuscripts at the bottom of the box, and the number of good articles available for Confucian journals immediately increased several times.


    "By the way, there''s news from ink magazine. I heard they''re one day late." Wei Si''an frowned. It''s reasonable to say that ink magazine took the lead in collecting paid contributions. It must be Confucianism magazine that took the lead in publishing, but Confucianism magazine has been a whole day late.


    "There was news before. I heard that there was no good poetry to be drafted, so only an accounting scholar was better. I guess I can''t get it." editor in chief Ma said sarcastically.


    "The poems of the accounting scholar? That''s also poetry!" Weisi was so happy when he settled down. How can the poems written by an accounting scholar who didn''t even want to pass the examination be compared with those of everyone Feng.


    "What about Confucian journals?" asked Wei Si''an.


    Editor in chief Ma said proudly, "don''t worry, my boss. There are a lot of high-quality articles in Confucian journals this time. We have already made a draft in advance, and now we have worked overtime for printing?"


    Wei Sian pondered for a moment and asked, "since Confucianism magazine has such strength, how about if we compete with Mo magazine again?"


    "The owner means that this issue of Confucian magazine will be published in advance and then published at the same time as Mo magazine?" editor in chief Ma understood.


    Wei Si''an nodded and said, "yes, ink magazine can postpone the publication, but why can''t Confucianism magazine advance."


    After the chief editor of Ma panheng, he solemnly nodded and said, "but in that case, let Mo magazine and Confucianism magazine compare again."


    Anyway, the circulation of Confucian periodicals is not as good as that of Mohist periodicals. Even if it fails, there is no loss.


    When the publication of Ink magazine was postponed and Confucianism magazine deliberately advanced, Confucianism magazine and ink magazine collided again.


    "Good poetry!"


    "Everyone Feng''s poems are really extraordinary!"


    "It''s not only Feng''s poems, but also this love between people and dragons, which makes people linger and forget to return!"


    With the deliberate calculation of Confucian journals, the first Confucian journals to be issued soon covered the streets and alleys. Pieces of high-quality articles and Feng''s poems were immediately praised by everyone.


    "Congratulations, Feng!"


    In the literary world of Chang''an City, scholars who saw Confucian journals came to congratulate everyone Feng.


    "Where! Where!"


    Everyone Feng, dressed in Confucian clothes, was even more complacent. In the face of everyone''s congratulations, he couldn''t help being modest.


    "This is the contribution fee of everyone Feng this time. Everyone Feng''s poems are extraordinary. The Confucian journal decided to calculate the contribution fee according to 900 words."


    What everyone Feng wrote was a seven character quatrain, a total of 28 words. When editor in chief Ma publicly presented 25 yuan and 200 Wen, the whole atmosphere of the Feng family was pushed to a climax.


    That''s a full 25 yuan, enough for ordinary people to have a rich year in Chang''an city. Now it''s easy to get it by a poem by everyone Feng.


    "Nine hundred thousand words!" everyone Feng frowned. Originally, according to his idea, he took out his most proud works to make a name for the Confucian journal. He thought that he could certainly get the top price of one thousand words and one thousand words. Although he didn''t care about the two money, he was more concerned about the reputation represented by one thousand words and one thousand words. As long as the Confucian journal gave him the price of one thousand words and one thousand words, That''s to admit that he has the greatest talent in the Tang Dynasty.


    The editor in chief Ma doesn''t know what Feng''s thoughts are. Although Feng''s poems are extraordinary, they are still several grades worse than the famous works handed down by Mohist Zi. If he really gives Feng a price of a thousand words and a thousand words, how can he collect his poems in the future? I''m afraid others won''t convince the public!


    "In my opinion, everyone Feng''s poems are extremely amazing, even a thousand words and a thousand words are not too much." a follower of everyone Feng said boldly.


    "Don''t dare, don''t dare? Although I have been immersed in poetry for many years, I haven''t achieved much knowledge, so I need to go further. Where can I bear such a high reputation?" Feng waved his hands again and again. Although he was dissatisfied, he also knew that the Confucian Journal was powerful and didn''t want to offend more.


    "Everyone Feng is indeed a model of our generation, and I admire him. He only got 900 words for his poems, but the ink family can also get the price of 1000 words for such vulgar poems. It can be seen how hypocritical the ink magazine is. Since he is so brazen, he deliberately raises the reputation of the ink family." a scholar in white stepped into the door, Holding an ink magazine in his hand, he said sarcastically.


    "Mojiazi also published poems in Mo!" in an instant, everyone was surprised. Although they repeatedly belittled mojiazi, they had to admit that mojiazi''s poems were indeed the best in the Tang Dynasty.


    The reason why everyone Feng is willing to accept the price of one thousand words and nine hundred words is that there are beads and jade in Mohist poems. Even if he is proud of himself, he has to admit that there is a considerable gap between his poems and Mohist poems.


    Now I suddenly heard that Mohist Zi also published poems in ink journals. I was afraid that if Mohist Zi published another peerless poem, his poem would immediately become a joke.


    Among them, the most nervous was chief editor ma. He realized that it was no wonder that Mo magazine delayed its publication, but he certainly didn''t find good poetry, so he found a poem to ask for Mohist Zi.


    "You say Mohist poems are vulgar!" editor in chief Ma moved in his heart and stared at the ink magazine in the hands of the white scribes.


    The scholar in white proudly said, "that''s nature! In our opinion, this poem is very ordinary, and Mohist magazine even offered Mohist a price of a thousand words and a thousand words because it is Mohist''s poem."


    "A thousand words and a thousand words!" everyone Feng was stunned. The discontent in his heart immediately rushed to his heart. He wanted to see what poems of Mohist school could press him to achieve the value of a thousand words and a thousand words.


    "Ten miles of Pinghu is covered with frost, and every inch of green silk worries about the year of China. They envy only mandarin ducks but not immortals."


    Under the gaze of the public, the white scribe read Merton''s poems with a disdainful face.


    After hearing this, they could not help being silent. Most of them were immersed in poetry. They could taste the poem of mojiazi. Although it was a good poem, it was much different from the previous poems of mojiazi. When they heard about the poems of mojiazi, everyone was eager to hear another famous poem handed down from generation to generation. Now they felt lost after listening to it.


    "Everyone Feng is a poet. How about commenting on Mohist''s poems?" editor in chief Ma said in his heart. Now that Mohist''s poems are general, if you let everyone Feng comment, it''s another news that everyone likes to hear and see.


    Everyone Feng can''t help showing a trace of pride. It''s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to step on the Mohist school to improve his literary name. How can he who is keen on fame and wealth miss it.


    "Although this poem has some merits, it''s too small, empty and meaningless. It''s only suitable for the music of the boudoir. I originally expected the poems of Mo Hou, but now it seems to disappoint me. In my opinion, the price of this poem is a thousand words and two hundred words, which is a little better than that of Mr. cashier''s poem. It can''t be higher." Feng everyone sneered.


    "Everyone Feng is really a great talent, and the comments can be described as penetrating." editor in chief Ma immediately clapped his hands and shouted. The harder Feng satirized, the better the effect of this news.


    "By the way, what is the title of this poem, so that we can remember mohou''s poem of 1000 words and 200 words." everyone Feng said more vigorously.


    "What''s the name of a beautiful girl ghost? It''s a poem of love''s boudoir music." the scholar in white didn''t care.


    "Ghost of a beautiful girl, isn''t that the name of the novel of Ink magazine?" a scholar in green clothes was reading with interest with the rest of the ink magazine. He was stunned and said in surprise.


    "What? The Mohist school has published a novel again!" the editor in chief Ma was not surprised. He quickly reached out and grabbed the ink magazine from the scholar in Qingyi. He saw that it was indeed four words of the ghost of a beautiful woman written in the novel column.


    Editor in chief Ma suddenly had a bad feeling. Since the poems were written by Mozi, didn''t the novel with the same name also come from Mozi? But he saw how terrible Mozi''s original "Liang Zhu" was, and he simply couldn''t lift up the Confucian journal.

 Chapter 955

    "Somebody, go to the street and buy some more ink magazines!" editor in chief Ma shouted immediately.


    Immediately a servant hurried away and soon bought several ink magazines. A group of scholars couldn''t wait to watch.


    "Ghost of a beautiful girl"


    "Ning caichen, Nie Xiaoqian!"


    "Human ghost love!"


    "Confucius said," Confucius doesn''t talk to ghosts and gods! It''s ridiculous. "


    A kind of literati looked at the Mexican family and wrote about the love between people and ghosts, and couldn''t help scolding one after another.


    However, with the continuous advancement of the plot of the beautiful girl ghost, the original expression of disapproval gradually disappeared. Ning caichen''s innocence and integrity, Nie Xiaoqian''s life experience and kindness are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with the wonderful plot, and people can''t help indulging in it.


    "People have good and evil, ghosts have good and bad!"


    Many scholars sighed when they saw that Nie Xiaoqian did not hesitate to sacrifice herself in order to save Ning caichen. As a scholar, they can''t help substituting themselves into the role of Ning caichen. Which scholar in the world doesn''t want to have such a beautiful female ghost confidant?


    Especially in the end, Ning caichen risked his life to rescue Nie Xiaoqian. People and ghosts gathered and told each other, and wrote a poem about the ghost of a beautiful girl together.


    "The ten mile long lake is covered with frost, and the inch inch green silk worries about the year of China. They envy only mandarin ducks, not immortals."


    At this moment, when people look back on the beautiful girl ghost, they find that the original empty poem, coupled with this poem, is like injecting soul. It can be said that every sentence is affectionate, which is a hundred times more colorful than the original reading.


    Especially at the end, Ning caichen and Nie Xiaoqian struggled to return to the sun, but found that it was already daybreak. Ning caichen was desperate to block the sun on the window, but couldn''t look back at Nie Xiaoqian. The two people who loved each other deeply had no chance at the time of separation. These regrets made people cry.


    "What a man who only envies mandarin ducks but not immortals. A thousand words and a thousand words deserve his reputation. I''m not as far away as Mozi!"


    Feng everyone read the poems silently. They were full of the touching love between Ning caichen and Nie Xiaoqian. Then they looked at their own poems. Although the words were gorgeous, they were immediately dwarfed by comparison.


    Editor in chief Ma was overwhelmed. He thought he could compare Mo magazine this time, but he didn''t expect to be defeated by Mo Jiazi again. This time, Confucianism magazine was defeated by Mo magazine.


    "Mojiazi!"


    These three words came from the crowd, some sighed and some admired! There is also gnashing of teeth.


    Sure enough, once the ghost of a beautiful girl appeared, it immediately triggered a wave of pursuit.


    The original Confucian journal''s human dragon love is very novel and bright. However, the human ghost love of the beautiful girl ghost is very amazing, especially in the story plot, the beautiful girl ghost directly exceeds the budding Tang Legend Novels for many years.


    For a while, ink magazines sold well, setting off another wave of rush buying Liang Zhu. Everyone scrambled to circulate the ghost of a beautiful woman, and was full of praise for the poem of the ghost of a beautiful woman.


    "Hahaha, I didn''t expect my poems to be published in the newspaper!" a bookkeeper waved the ink magazine and raised his eyebrows. He was the bookkeeper who submitted poems for the ink magazine. He didn''t even pass the examination, but he was obsessed with poetry. However, because of his status, no one appreciated his poetry at all, but didn''t expect his poetry to be published in the ink magazine for the whole country to know, More expensive returns.


    "It''s a piece of shit luck. He made two runs of money!" many scribes looked at the cashier and said angrily.


    Although the price given by Ink magazine is the lowest thousand words and a hundred words, the five character quatrains of Mr. accounting room are enough to get two through money, which is an income for ordinary people for more than half a year.


    "It''s not that there are no literati to contribute to the MOH family. In this way, the MOH magazine can only choose generals from the short ones. Finally, a cashier was lucky to get these two money." a scholar despised.


    "You say, or we too............................." a scholar in poor clothes couldn''t help but say.


    "You''re stupid. Confucianism and Mohism don''t deal with each other. If you let the master know that you contribute to Mohist magazine, you''ll be reformed." a classmate warned.


    The scholar in shabby clothes suddenly shrunk. He knew his master''s temper. The Mohist school was the most criticized on weekdays. If he knew that his disciples contributed to the Mohist journal, he would not be able to eat it all.


    However, his family is extremely poor. Once the minimum standard of poetry is adopted, it will be a full two-year income. He thinks that his talent will certainly surpass this accounting room, but it is not as good as his predecessors who have been immersed in poetry for many years. However, it is difficult to get the contribution fee of Confucian journals. For ink journals without contributions, it is not easy to get, In the face of readily available wealth, how can he not let him move.


    How can we not only let people know, but also get the royalties of Mohism? The scholar in poor clothes couldn''t help being distressed, but his eyes brightened when he saw the draft notice at the bottom of the ink magazine.


    "Pen name!"


    The poor scholar can''t help but rejoice. The pseudonym is not uncommon. Some literary predecessors love to give their own nicknames, such as what Zhongnan lay. If he doesn''t write his own name, but uses a pseudonym, isn''t it a perfect solution to this problem.


    At present, he couldn''t wait to take a pseudonym for himself and sent his favorite work to Ink magazine.


    The pseudonym is a strategy that Mo magazine came up with to solve the shortage of contributions. As soon as this strategy was put forward, the effect was immediate. Soon, another letter with pseudonym flew to Mo magazine. This time, it was full of high-quality poems and articles.


    "The Mohist family is really worthy of its reputation." in Luoyang, a poor scholar stared at the Mohist magazine in his hand and said with conviction.


    He is the author of the love between man and dragon in the Confucian journal. The Confucian journal gave him a price of 1000 words and 50 articles, which made him a lot of money. Just when he was satisfied, the novels of Mohist school gave him a heavy lesson.


    On conception, paper pen, on plot! His novel was a complete failure. He was not discouraged at all. Instead, he eagerly absorbed the writing skills of the beautiful girl ghost. In the original history, the road of the novel was explored from generation to generation, while the Mozi''s Liang Zhu and the beautiful girl ghost are fine works that have been refined for generations. Now they suddenly appear in the bud of the novel of the Tang Dynasty, It immediately played a catalytic role, making the skills of Tang Legend Novels decades ahead of schedule.


    "More importantly, Mozi is the benefactor of Daxing''s novels and the founder of the novels!" the eyes of the impoverished literati said firmly.


    Although Mohist Zi is the leader of Mohism, his two novels point out the direction and provide reference materials for the novel, and raise the price of the novel to thousands of words and hundreds of Wen. If it is a novel with many words, it will be a lot of money.


    In the past, the decline of novels was due to the low status of novels, not to mention the lack of any income. With the high income brought by copyright, coupled with the sensational effect brought by the two novels of Mohist Zi, people saw the broad prospects of novels. He believed that xiaoshuo vein would surely revive in the future.

 Chapter 956

    With the explosion of the ghost of a beautiful girl, it not only aroused the world''s interest in novels, but also brought another book, that is, the Buddhist Vajra Sutra!


    Vajra Sutra is one of the Buddhist classics. It has a high status in Buddhism itself. Ning caichen, the beautiful ghost, relies on the Buddhist Vajra Sutra to repel evil things and avert danger for many times. It can be said to be the only magic weapon to defeat the enemy.


    With the spread of the ghost of a beautiful woman, the theory that Vajra Sutra can drive away evil and avoid disaster has become more and more widely spread and is deeply sought after by the world.


    "Master! The Vajra Sutra of our temple has been sold out by believers!" in Huichang temple, the defense machine happily reported to the abbot of Huichang temple that more and more believers came to Huichang temple to buy Vajra Sutra with the ghost fire of a beautiful girl these days.


    Abbot Huichang nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have ordered a batch of Vajra Sutras in the bookstore of Chang''an City for a long time. I believe they will be delivered soon. When you receive the goods, please tell the believers that only the Vajra Sutra opened by the blessing of Buddhism can have the effect of exorcising evil spirits."


    "Master, wise!" the debater''s eyes lit up.


    With block printing, the price of Buddhist scriptures fell sharply. However, this is only the price of Buddhist scriptures printed in the secular world, but the value of Buddhist scriptures revealed through temples doubled, and the price difference naturally fell into the hands of Buddhists.


    "I didn''t expect that Mo Jiazi inadvertently helped the Buddhist family!" Abbot Huichang said in disbelief.


    In the past, the Mohists tried their best to destroy the good deeds of the Buddhists and prevent the Buddhists from using the empress changsun to build temples. However, in the twinkling of an eye, they helped the Buddhists and made the Buddhist Vajra Sutra hot. The Buddhists took the opportunity to make a lot of money.


    One side of the argument could not deny: "the Mohist son''s heart of limiting Buddhism is well known. How can he buy Buddhism with a little kindness."


    Abbot Huichang nodded. The two confrontations between Mohists and Buddhists had long been entangled, which could not be resolved in a moment and a half.


    "Back to the chair, the Vajra Sutra printed by Chang''an publishing house has been delivered!" a little monk suddenly came to report. Abbot Huichang nodded, looked at the defense machine and said, "I''ll leave it to you. Go and hand it over!"


    "Yes!" the defense machine bowed down, went to the incense money box, took the money and paid the bill with the clerk of the bookstore, pretended to hand over the Vajra Sutra to the monks of Huichang temple, and made a set of French to enlighten it.


    "Master, give me a Vajra Sutra!"


    "Give me one too!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, eager believers who had been waiting for a long time sold out the just opened Vajra Sutra.


    Waiting for the crazy believers to leave like a treasure, the defense machine ignored the greedy senior brothers counting silver and silver tickets, returned to his meditation room and took out a copy of the Vajra Sutra from the bookshelf.


    "Prajna paramita................"


    However, when the defense machine recited the Vajra Sutra, the classic love story of the beautiful female ghost emerged in his mind. The Buddhist Dharma and lust were constantly entangled in the defense machine''s brain. Finally, lust gradually prevailed. In his mind, if a perfect figure was hidden, he would tangle with him like a female ghost, even if the Vajra Sutra in his hand, The Scriptures silently recited in the heart have no effect at all.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Shifu, you said that the Mohist school should understand ghosts before. Since Shifu thought there were no ghosts in the world and the Buddhist Vajra Sutra had no effect on exorcising evil spirits, why did Shifu encourage the Buddhist school to take the opportunity to deceive the world." in the Mohist house, Wu Meiniang looked puzzled and asked Merton for advice.


    After the influence of the Mohist school, Wu Meiniang now simply scoffed at the theory of ghosts and gods. She didn''t believe that the so-called Buddhist "Vajra Sutra" could avoid evil spirits, so she asked Merton.


    Merton couldn''t help thinking a little and wanted to answer: "Since ancient times, the most unpredictable thing is the people''s heart. It''s easy for Mohists to go to the ghost in their own heart, but it''s difficult to go to the ghost in the hearts of people all over the world. People all over the world regard what they can''t understand as the power of ghosts and gods. Some of the things that haven''t been solved by Mohists, let alone the superstitious means that have been solved by Mohists, are still believed."


    "That''s their ignorance! Who has seen ghosts in the world?" Wu Meiniang said proudly.


    Morton nodded and said, "although the world has not seen ghosts, there are ghosts in his heart. This is the reason why Buddhism prospers. As long as there is a person in the world who does not really know ghosts, Buddhism will exist for one day. Since everyone has not seen ghosts but is afraid of ghosts, it''s better to find a nemesis for ghosts and monsters. As a teacher, I chose this Vajra Sutra."


    In fact, when Merton was writing about the ghost of a beautiful woman, he also thought of rewriting the Diamond Sutra into the ink Sutra. In this way, it seems a little against his heart. Moreover, in future generations thousands of years later, Buddhism is still popular. It can be seen that it has its own reason. Merton still thinks it''s better to abide by the original work.


    Wu Mei Niang could not help but curled her lips and said, "it''s really cheap, Buddhist!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "although Buddhism has benefited this time, being a teacher also publicizes that ghosts can be good or bad. Coupled with the effect of the Vajra Sutra to ward off evil spirits, I believe that those who are worthy of their hearts must have lost the ghosts in their hearts. What really benefits is the people all over the world. Being a teacher can calm the hearts of the people all over the world and lead Buddhism on the right path."


    "Shame is a word, a heart, a ghost. There is a ghost in the heart. There is no ghost in the heart. But what about those people with ghosts?" Wu Meiniang said proudly. She was studying the hieroglyphics proposed by Merton, and suddenly felt how foresight the ancients were.


    Morton''s face coagulated and said, "those who have ghosts in their hearts, even if they sit at the feet of the Buddha, I''m afraid they can''t resist the ghosts in their hearts."


    "What master said is very true!" Wu Meiniang was taught.


    "Well, this is the end of today''s class. As a teacher, I have to be busy with the exhibition of ink skills." Merton waved to finish the class!


    Wu Meiniang''s eyes lit up and she couldn''t help saying, "I don''t know what amazing ink skills there are in this ink technology exhibition. Can master reveal some?"


    She saw with her own eyes how amazing the ink exhibition last year was. She couldn''t help but itch and ask.


    Merton shook his head and said with a smile, "then you may be disappointed. This year''s ink technology exhibition is not only strange, but also boring."


    "How is this possible?" Wu Meiniang did not believe.


    Merton smiled and said, "for ordinary people, it is really boring, but for Mohists, it is an earth shaking change.


    Today, the reputation of Mohist ink technology exhibition has become famous in the Tang Dynasty. It is no longer necessary to create some eye-catching ink technology to attract the world. It is time to return to the essence of ink technology.


    "Earth shaking changes!" Wu Meiniang said without much expectation, "the disciple will wait and see."


    This time, taking advantage of the upsurge of beautiful female ghosts, ink magazine also published the news that the Mohist ink technology exhibition is about to be held. The ink technology exhibition postponed due to the illness of empress Chang sun is finally about to open.

 Chapter 957

    However, the Mo family believes that the ordinary ink technology exhibition has caused a sensation for the outside world, even as hot as the discussion caused by the ghost of a beautiful woman.


    "Another ink technology exhibition is going to be held. I missed something last time. I can''t miss it again this time!"


    "Every ink technology exhibition is an endless business opportunity. This is the opportunity of our generation of businessmen!"


    Once the ink technology exhibition is displayed, it will not only shake people''s hearts, but also have a lot of business opportunities. Each new ink technology will bring a lot of wealth.


    A Mojia village can only radiate in the area of Chang''an and Luoyang. As long as they copy these ink skills of Mojia village to other places, they will have an immediate effect.


    Not to mention that they can also sell the goods newly produced by Mojia village, even if they are brought to other places for resale, it is also a lucrative business.


    "It''s said that this time the mojiazi will choose a workshop to cooperate in the production of Qinglong real medicine after the ink technology exhibition. That''s a real gold mine." a businessman smacked his tongue.


    Although Merton said that there was nothing strange in this ink technology exhibition, there was a real explosion in the bright side, that is, Qinglong real medicine.


    Anyone knows that once such a magical Qinglong real medicine is produced in mass, it will be a steady stream of wealth. In the face of an infinite golden mountain, no one is excited.


    "Don''t think about it. It''s said that the technology of Qinglong real medicine is extremely complex. To build a workshop for producing Qinglong real medicine, we must have strong funds before it can be successful. We ordinary people don''t think about it." a well-informed person can''t help but lose his breath.


    Yes, building a large-scale production pharmaceutical factory requires a lot of funds, which ordinary people can''t do at all. However, Datang doesn''t lack rich people. For a moment, the dignitaries of the whole Datang family and even the big businessmen all moved one after another, trying to cut the fattest piece of this rich fat meat.


    With the public discussion, this ink technology exhibition is becoming more and more popular. In Luoyang, Xingyang and even further brick roads, all interested people flock to Chang''an City in order to see the style of ink technology exhibition and find another business opportunity.


    In the 10th year of Zhenguan, the Mohist Ink Exhibition officially began on February 25. At that time, the whole Chang''an city was crowded and rushed to the Mohist Convention and Exhibition Center outside the South Gate of Chang''an city.


    "The general trend of Mohism has become!"


    Looking at the more popular scene than in previous years, Kong Yingda, who was invited to come, couldn''t help shaking.


    It''s only a few years since Mohist brought a car full of live fish to Beijing. Mohist has such a great momentum under the leadership of Mohist village. How can he not be shocked.


    Kong Desheng sneered: "the general trend has been completed? In my opinion, the Mohist family is destroying the Great Wall! If the Mohist village holds the ink technology on which it is famous, it can continue to prosper. At the moment, he has revealed all the Mohist ink technology for the sake of the so-called patent law. Even if there is no more money, it is just a pile of copper smell."


    In Kong Desheng''s opinion, there are too many loopholes in the so-called patent law. The wealth of Mojia village is great. It''s good to say that ordinary people are afraid that they can''t even take back their books. How many people will follow Mojia to apply for a patent?


    "Maybe the Mohist school has another good idea." Kong Yingda frowned. In this era of underdeveloped information, other places steal other people''s patents. I''m afraid the other party can''t know until he dies. Even if he knows, he can''t go thousands of miles to court. This is the biggest loophole in the so-called patent law.


    Kong Desheng smiled and said, "but the Mohist school did a good thing, that is, put forward the copyright of literati."


    If you steal Mohist patents, I''m afraid you will hide them and don''t let the other party know as much as possible. However, the copyright of literati is not. They are usually published in newspapers or printed. It''s very simple to find newspapers and publishing houses that steal their own works, and it''s much easier to claim for compensation.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help nodding. This is that he agreed to the proposal of mojiazi''s copyright without hesitation, which is also a hundred miles without harm to Confucianism.


    They smiled at each other and entered together. They had just walked into the box of Confucianism and sat down. Suddenly, a familiar figure passed through the window.


    "Wang''s master." Kong Desheng was stunned. He didn''t expect to see the Wang''s master who hadn''t stepped out of Taiyuan for many years.


    "Isn''t Taiyuan Wang''s family not dealing with Mohist Zi? How can they come to the Mohist art exhibition?" Kong Yingda wondered.


    Kong Desheng shook his head and said, "since ancient times, wealth and silk have moved people''s hearts. How can the Taiyuan Wang family be willing to give up such divine medicines as Qinglong real medicine."


    In his opinion, the king''s family must have come to Beijing for Qinglong real medicine. Unexpectedly, Qinglong real medicine even attracted the Millennium family of Taiyuan Wang''s family.


    Later, to Kong Desheng''s surprise, the owners of Li''s family in Longxi, Li''s family in Zhaojun, Cui''s family in Boling, Cui''s family in Qinghe, Lu''s family in Fanyang and Zheng''s family in Xingyang all passed in front of them. If Kong Desheng hadn''t been knowledgeable and met with these owners, I''m afraid he would have thought that ordinary rich people came to the ink technology exhibition to make fun of it.


    "Five hopes and seven surnames are coming. This time, the Mohists are making a lot of trouble!" Kong Yingda took a cold breath.


    Wuwang seven surnames are the top seven aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty. The whole Tang Dynasty will shake if any one moves. Now all the heads of the seven aristocratic families gather in the ink technology exhibition. If it is spread, it will be a sensation.


    Of course, the Mohist did not know all this. He did not know that the Mohist school had aroused the interest of the seven aristocratic families. The drums sounded. Merton boarded the stage center of the ink technology exhibition, which immediately aroused the cheers of countless people.


    "Really ignorant people are fearless!" Kong Yingda shook his head and smiled bitterly when he saw Merton who didn''t know anything.


    Merton proudly looked around and raised it slightly. Suddenly, the whole audience immediately calmed down, and Merton became the center of the whole audience.


    "This is the Mohist family!" the master of the Wang family looked at the weak crown year of the Mohist technology exhibition center with a little surprise. How could he think that a weak crown year was a figure who stirred the situation of the Tang Dynasty, which made the Wang family eat and shrivel, so that they almost withdrew from the business community of Chang''an, and even caused the sharp drop in the price of Jiechi salt, the economic lifeline of the Wang family.


    In the long run, the Taiyuan Wang family will certainly lose the status of Wuwang and Qixing. If he did not see the crisis of the Taiyuan Wang family, how could he personally go out of the mountain to find another way for the Taiyuan Wang family, that is Qinglong real medicine.


    Once the Taiyuan Wangs have the production formula of Qinglong real medicine, pay attention to make up for the loss caused by pool salt.


    However, when he looked at the other six owners not far away, he frowned. It seems that many people have the same plan as him! It seems that this time I don''t have to give them profits.


    The seven aristocratic family leaders looked at each other with understanding. They all nodded tacitly and reached a partition agreement. When they looked at the Mohist school again, it was like looking at a bird in a cage.

 Chapter 958

    "It''s really an honor for you to come to the ink technology exhibition. However, it''s a pity that this ink technology exhibition does not have the spectacle of man-made rainbow or the prophecy of heavenly dog eating the sun." Merton told the crowd.


    Many people laughed. In fact, after three ink technology exhibitions, the number of people who came to visit the ink technology exhibition has changed greatly. Some people watching the excitement have gradually decreased, and more are people from hundreds of merchants and people who are very interested in ink technology.


    "Of course, today is not without good things. Compared with previous times, this ink technology exhibition is the real return to ink technology itself!"


    "What is ink technology? In Mo''s opinion, it means that people take heaven and earth as their teacher, constantly observe and learn from all things in the world, and in turn use this knowledge to benefit people. This is ink technology. As long as the world''s exploration of the world does not stop, ink technology continues to emerge, and the invention of ink technology one day earlier will benefit the world. Therefore, the revival of Mohism is not in the next person or the world It is the credit of the Mohist village, but the trend of the times. "Merton firmly declared to the world once again the inevitability of the revival of Mohism, that is, some people obstruct it, but also let the Mohist take more detours.


    Kong Yingda nodded solemnly, which was what worried him. Confucianism''s knowledge came from interpersonal relationships, while Mohism''s knowledge came from everything in heaven and earth. You should know that the world not only needs benevolence, righteousness and morality, but also needs food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Confucianism is a dominant family, which can suppress Mohism for a while, but it can''t suppress Mohism for a lifetime. It has been hundreds of years since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism alone, The Mohist school finally began to rebound.


    Kong Desheng is even more worried. The Mohist school is still so, and the vigorous doctors are not so, let alone hundreds of other schools. In contrast, it is so difficult for Confucianism to go further.


    "Some people say that Mohism started from the sage of Mohism, but it is true that Mohism has been inherited for thousands of years. However, the emergence of ink technology is ancient and can not be studied. From the first contact with nature, human beings constantly learn useful knowledge from heaven and earth. Human beings learn to drill wood for fire, learn to use bow and arrow, Polish stone tools, and even smelt bronze and iron! At that time, it can change people I have said that the way of Mohism is the daily use of the people. The ultimate purpose of the so-called ink technology is to benefit people and the people all over the world. "Merton said proudly.


    "Hum! How can this boy put gold on the face of the Mohist family!" Kong Desheng couldn''t help but hum coldly. To say that smelting bronze and iron was still in the past, the Mohist family even drilled wood to make fire, and the ancient people created bow, arrow and stone tools.


    "Interesting?"


    Ordinary people are excited one by one by the Mohists, while the house owners with five hopes and seven surnames are interested in performing. Compared with their stereotyped family children, they have never seen such an interesting young man as Merton.


    "Of course, if you can come to support the Mohist school today, the Mohist school will not let you return empty handed. You also know that the Mohist school has recently promoted the patent law to solve the disadvantages of craftsmen leaving one hand. Therefore, the Mohist school has spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy ten unique skills of" leaving one hand "in Chang''an Luoyang and 15 most popular secret recipes in all walks of life for free." Merton waved his big hand and casually said that the names of several people were famous figures in Chang''an Luoyang.


    "Seriously?" many people were suddenly surprised.


    As the saying goes, people from Luoyang, Chang''an, who come to visit the ink art exhibition occupy more than half of them. Naturally, they know how valuable their skills are to stay around. In the jargon, it''s just pediatrics to pass on children without passing on women. Many craftsmen are eager for their skills, but they have no way to ask for them.


    "I''ve heard that these craftsmen regard their unique skills as treasures and refuse to show them easily. However, mohou can easily get so many unique skills. Shouldn''t it be the power of Mohism?" the king''s master suddenly shouted.


    As soon as Wang''s voice fell, the whole audience was quiet and looked at Merton thoughtfully.


    Merton looked at the king''s master and said with a smile, "the old man looks down on the Mohist school too much. To tell the truth, these skills are unique, but they are not suitable for the large-scale production workshop of the Mohist school. How can the Mohist School tarnish its reputation because of some useless things."


    Many people nodded when they heard the speech. Merton really had no reason to do so.


    Merton went on: "In fact, the so-called keeping a hand is the misunderstanding of the world about craftsmen. Craftsmen''s skills are deeply rooted in his life. There are so many orders for ironmaking in a place. One blacksmith can get rich, two blacksmiths can support their families, and one of the three blacksmiths will always drink the northwest wind. Obviously, the one who drinks the northwest wind is likely to be an old and frail master. Once the skills are passed on When they go out, they will have no food to eat. This is the reason why they stay. Many people not only want to obtain the craftsman''s skills, but also want to cover the white wolf with empty hands. Others don''t want to say that the other party will stay. The Mohist school has offered him enough bids to enjoy his old age. Naturally, the craftsman is willing to sell his unique skills. "


    Merton''s biggest expenditure is thousands of passes, just to buy a carpenter''s carving skills, which is money that ordinary carpenters can''t earn in a lifetime.


    "Money can make the devil push the mill. Mohou is really powerful." the Lord of the Wang family didn''t know whether to praise or satirize.


    Merton shook his head and said, "naturally, not all our craftsmen regard money as their life. Compared with money, these craftsmen pay more attention to secret skills. Coincidentally, what the Mohist school lacks most is secret skills. The Mohist school will buy many" reserved "secret skills. At the same time, it will also take out the corresponding Mohist crafts and machinery as compensation."


    People nodded slightly. I''m afraid only money and more advanced technology and equipment can move these.


    "Both money and ink skills. I wonder if the Mohists are willing to pay tens of thousands of yuan for nothing?" the master of the Wang family asked.


    Merton laughed and said: "Although Mo is known as the black sheep of his family, he says that he doesn''t feel bad about the expenditure of 10000 Guan money. I''m afraid you don''t believe it. However, although this 10000 Guan is spent, it can create dozens of more advanced technologies in the world, and the wealth it can create must be no less than one million Guan. This alone is already worth thousands of yuan. Moreover, it is not impossible for Mo to recover the cost. Mo can''t Training schools are set up in the ten ways of the Tang Dynasty. Craftsmen all over the world can come to learn arts. Over time, the tuition alone is enough to get back. "


    Ordinary people have an extraordinary craft. The Mohist bought dozens of superior crafts at once. Coupled with the inherent crafts of the Mohist, it will certainly attract more people to learn.

 Chapter 959

    The public losers on the stand couldn''t help nodding. Once these advanced technologies are popularized, the craftsmen in the world will certainly improve qualitatively, which will greatly promote the industry. In the long run, they must make a lot of profits.


    "This is the way for mojiazi to solve patent plagiarism!" Kong Yingda frowned. He thought that even if those craftsmen applied for patents, they could not prevent others from plagiarizing. Unexpectedly, mojiazi took the initiative to buy them and publish them in the form of training schools for people to learn.


    As for whether it will affect these skilled businesses, Kong Yingda can''t help shaking his head. The old craftsman who owns this patent must be famous and his business may be better. Not to mention the improvement of his craft by the Mohist school, and even the Mohist school can invite these old craftsmen to teach in person. It is also a livelihood. Even he can think of this. He doesn''t believe that the Mohist school can''t think of it.


    The master of the Wang family couldn''t help sighing: "it''s said that the Mohist son has the world in mind. Today, he really deserves his reputation. However, the Mohist took the initiative to announce the unique skills of others. I don''t know whether the unique skills of the Mohist will be fulfilled, such as the green dragon real medicine promised by the mohou!"


    "Qinglong real medicine!" as soon as the voice of the Wang family leader fell, the whole audience immediately breathed sluggishly.


    Rumors about Qinglong real medicine have become more and more widespread. After more than a month of treatment, the efficacy of Qinglong real medicine has been fully proved. Although Mojia village has expanded its output, the gap of Qinglong real medicine is still growing. Some people have even driven to ten passes, just asking for a green dragon real medicine.


    It is conceivable that once the Mohist School announces the formula of Qinglong real medicine, who can produce Qinglong real medicine will have a steady stream of gold mines.


    Merton took a deep look at the master of the Wang family and said, "since the Mohist family is sincere and open, it will naturally say nine things. Qinglong real medicine is indeed in this batch of patents."


    When Merton finished, there was an uproar in the audience. Even if everyone had already known that mojiazi would not break the contract, they couldn''t help an uproar when they heard that mojiazi admitted in public. Anyone knew that mojiazi had abandoned great wealth.


    The leader of the Wang family could not help showing a trace of pride. As long as he ran in public and fulfilled the promise of mojiazi, it was impossible for mojiazi to go back on his promise.


    "However, the production process of Qinglong genuine medicine is too complex for ordinary people to produce, so if you need to use the patent of Qinglong genuine medicine, you must abide by the conditions of Mohism." Merton''s words changed.


    The Wang family leader frowned. The Mohist family is known as a catfish. It''s really slippery. It''s not so easy to grasp.


    "First, there must be sufficient funds. According to my conservative estimation, if you want to abbreviate the pharmaceutical factory producing Qinglong real medicine, it is conservatively estimated that it needs at least 10000 funds." Merton solemnly said.


    "Ten thousand passes!" suddenly the whole audience was in an uproar!


    How many people own Wanguan''s property in the whole Datang? Even if they own Wanguan''s property, how many people can take out Wanguan''s property at once. Merton''s condition alone has blocked the vast majority of people out.


    The five surnamed Qiwang family owners can''t help but flash a trace of pride. For others, Wanguan money may be an astronomical figure, but it''s easy for them. The more money the Mo family requires, the higher the threshold for entry, and the more favorable it is for them.


    "Second, all the workers of the pharmaceutical factory must be trained by doctors. The drugs produced by the pharmaceutical factory must be tested by doctors before they can be produced. All unqualified products must be destroyed. If fake and shoddy drugs flow out of the people, the Mohist school has the right to cancel the other party''s right to use patents," Merton continued.


    The owners of the house frowned. This one almost put a hoop curse on their heads, but for the sake of high profits, this is not unacceptable.


    "Third, the price. Once Qinglong genuine medicine is produced on a large scale, its price will certainly decline. It is impossible to have a sky high price of 500 Wen a piece. Its price may fall continuously until the price is acceptable to the ordinary people. At that time, Qinglong genuine medicine may not have the kind of huge profits you think." Merton gave them a preventive injection in advance.


    The owners of the house frowned. If there were no huge profits, they probably wouldn''t have to go here. Because Merton had half of the patent fee, they couldn''t do without the share of the Mohist school anyway. Moreover, the more Qinglong real medicine is produced, the more income the Mohists will get.


    Merton seemed to have guessed everyone''s mind and said with a loud laugh: "You will think that there is a patent fee and the Mohists do not suffer losses. That''s why you want to lower the price of Qinglong real medicine. Mo can tell you that this is not the case. The patent fee of the Mohist Qinglong real medicine will not fall into the Bank of the Mohist village, but will be replaced with Qinglong real medicine and donated to the Red Cross for free treatment of the poor who can''t see the disease."


    "Free treatment for the poor who despise the disease." everyone was in an uproar. Everyone knew how valuable Qinglong real medicine was. However, the Mexican family even gave so many Qinglong real medicine to the poor for free.


    Moreover, once the formula of Qinglong real medicine is published, a patent fee can be charged to make up for it. However, now mojiazi has donated even the patent fee. It can be said that 90% of the benefits of Qinglong real medicine have been donated at once. I''m afraid only his own pharmaceutical factory can obtain a little benefit, which can be compared with that before.


    "The Mohist school is really incomprehensible. For an illusory idea, it should hand over such great interests." the leader of the Wang family was stunned. The aristocratic family attaches the most importance to interests, even if it is beating the bone and sucking the marrow, it is common. Where is willing to give up the wealth.


    "This is the MOH family!" Kong Yingda said with a heavy face.


    Qinglong genuine medicine seems to be worth thousands of gold. However, for doctors, it is the most precious medicine. For Mohists, it is not the main business. Mohists did not hesitate to donate it. In addition to the Mohist concept of universal love, I''m afraid there are reasons to focus all their energy on Mohist ink technology, which is the foundation of Mohist''s deep life, Such Mohism can be called the real opponent of Confucianism.


    Sure enough, Merton waved his big hand and continued: "whether it''s the ink skill or the green dragon real medicine, these are not the highlights of today''s ink skill exhibition. The next step is to really show the secret skills of Mohism.


    For a moment, everyone breathed slowly, looking forward to the center of the ink technology exhibition and staring at the ink family in the center of the field.


    Merton looked around and said slowly, "the purpose of the revision of the patent law is to avoid the loss of many secret and unique skills. There are countless unique skills lost in China''s thousands of years of history. However, among the many lost unique skills, there is one that has been regarded as a masterpiece by craftsmen of all ages. Craftsmen of all ages want to copy but can''t do anything, and dynasties want to want but can''t."

 Chapter 960

    "Lost stunt!" Gongshu Hong was shocked. To say the lost stunt, Gongshu''s most regretful one is Gongshu''s son''s stunt, Muque.


    At first, gongshuzi cut wood to make a wooden magpie, which can fly for three days without landing. However, this unique skill that gongshuzi is very proud of has attracted the contempt of Mozi, who believes that gongshuzi''s Wooden magpie has no practical use and is not beneficial to people. It''s not even as good as a car cut by an ordinary carpenter. Gongshu''s son was so angry that he never became a wooden magpie again. Since then, Gongshu''s unique skill, wooden magpie, has been lost,


    "How can the Mohist school be willing to recover the lost unique skills of the public loser!" the public loser Hong couldn''t help shaking his head and laughing. The ink technology exhibition is the platform for the Mohist school to display the ink technology, that is, if the Mohist school can recover, it will not be displayed at the time of displaying the Mohist unique skills.


    "Could it be.................................." Gongshu Hao suddenly thought of the regretful lost stunt in history.


    Li Yun suddenly looked surprised and said, "is it a wooden ox and a horse?"


    "Yes, that''s Zhuge Kongming''s Wooden cattle and horses during the Three Kingdoms period!" Merton said proudly. Merton''s voice was not loud, but it sounded like thunder throughout the conference hall.


    In an instant, the whole venue could not help but be quiet. Whether it was the masters of hundreds of families, the aristocratic family leaders with five surnames and seven hopes, or the ordinary people, their faces appeared surprised.


    However, Merton looked again, his face ashamed and said, "however, Mo is not talented. Even if he gathers the wisdom of the whole Mohist school, he has not surpassed the wisdom of Mr. Zhuge, and has not recovered a wooden ox and a flowing horse."


    "Hoo!"


    When Merton admitted that he had not recovered his wooden ox and horse, everyone was relieved. The world said that Zhuge Liang was more intelligent and close to the demon. They didn''t want another figure comparable to Zhuge Liang in the Tang Dynasty.


    "However, the wise men of all ages are not without people comparable to Mr. Zhuge. Among them, Zu Chongzhi, a famous mathematician, is the one who is closest to Mr. Zhuge. After years of work, Zu Chongzhi finally made the closest wooden ox and horse, and asked the descendants of the ancestral family to bring the wooden ox and horse." Merton waved his hand and saw a young man slowly coming behind him, Holding a wooden machine similar to cattle and horses.


    The crowd could not help but stretch their heads and looked at the legendary wooden cattle and horses curiously. They saw that the cow head machinery behind the young man was not pushed, but only pulled by the rope in the young man''s hand. The wooden cattle and horses of the ancestral family walked around by themselves and slowly walked to the ink technology exhibition center.


    "It''s really a wooden ox and a flowing horse."


    Such a magical machine immediately caused bursts of exclamations. Everyone stared at the wooden cattle and horses in the ink technology exhibition center with hot eyes, but three pairs of eyes were not good at staring at the young people holding the wooden cattle and horses.


    "Zu Mingjun!" Qin Huaiyu said with gnashing teeth. They had always had such a chance to show off, but this time the wooden cattle and horses were the property of the Zu family, which made the three of them stare under the stage.


    Mu Niu Liu Ma is the family heirloom of the ancestral family. It is not easy to show people on weekdays. However, the ink technology exhibition is a place known all over the world. It is said that the Mozi family wanted to borrow the Mu Niu Liu Ma of the ancestral family, but the ancestral family agreed without hesitation. As long as the Mu Niu Liu Ma made by the ancestral family surprised four people in the ink technology exhibition, the ancestral family''s reputation will increase greatly.


    In full view of the public, Zu Mingjun opened the hollow abdomen of Mu Niu Liu ma. It was obvious that it could carry a lot of heavy objects and show the artifact of Mu Niu Liu Ma one by one.


    "Zujia!" Li Yun on the stand was shocked. He admired zumingjun very much. When he built the Weishui bridge, he was instructed by Merton and turned to zumingjun who was proficient in mathematics, but he was deeply impressed by zumingjun''s advanced mathematics.


    "It is said that the carrying capacity of wooden cattle and horses is" one-year-old grain ", which is more than 400 kg. The daily journey is" tens of miles for special travelers and 30 miles for groups ", walking among the mountains does not waste any manpower. Unfortunately, although the wooden cattle and horses made by the ancestral family are equally magical, they need someone''s traction to move. Whether they are carrying weight or walking, they are far inferior to the legendary wooden cattle and horses of Zhuge Kongming." Merton said with regret.


    Where did Zu Mingjun adapt to being surrounded by so many people, he quickly arched his hands around and slowly left with the wooden cattle and horses made by the Zu family.


    At this time, people found that the defects of the wooden cattle and horses made by the ancestral family were very obvious. First, the wooden cattle and horses in front of them didn''t have a load, so they needed people''s traction to move, and the movement was very slow. Second, the wooden cattle and horses made by the ancestral family could only walk on the flat ground, and they often needed someone''s assistance at one step. These two points alone are unbearable, Not to mention its exquisite structure, its cost must be expensive, and it is more acceptable to ordinary people.


    Watching Mu Niu Liu Ma disappear in the ink art exhibition, the public losers looked gloomy. They were even covered by the Mohists, but they didn''t expect to be covered by the little ancestors.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said with a frozen face, "this is a incomplete wooden ox and horse. It''s nothing. In my opinion, the Mohist school can''t make such a wooden ox and horse. There must be a backhand."


    People suddenly realized that this was the Mohist ink technology exhibition. How could Mohist Zi let the ancestors dominate the competition? I''m afraid the next Mohist Zi''s display is the real Mohist unique skill.


    "In the face of such exquisite ancestral secret skills, compared with what Mo showed today, it is difficult to ascend the hall of elegance." Merton seems modest, but the public loser and Xiangfu heard a strong sense of confidence.


    With the famous wooden ox, Liuma and Zhuyu in history, compared with the ink skills that Mozi dared to bring out, how can it be said to show off his ugliness.


    With a big hand, Merton opened a red cloth behind him. He saw a unique car appear in front of everyone. The structure of the car was very simple. One wheel, two supports and an iron bucket were welded on it, which confirmed that it was a very common construction site unicycle in later generations.


    "Deer cart?" the public transport wheel frowned. Although the shape of Merton''s car is unique, it is not rare. It is very similar to the common deer cart in the Tang Dynasty. It is a common load-bearing thing among the people.


    "This is the improvement of Mojia based on the deer cart. Momou prefers to call it a unicycle!" Merton pushed the unicycle over and showed it to a crowd.


    "The unicycle is worthy of its name!" Gong Shuhong nodded. The deer cart was originally meant to be a small car, which can be pulled by even weak deer, and the biggest specialty of the deer cart is a wheel, which can be driven even on rough roads.


    "The deer cart has been transformed by the Mohists. Its structure is very simple and the cost is cheap. Although it needs manpower, it can carry up to 500 kg. It is not a difficult problem to walk on the rugged mountain road for 50 miles a day." Merton Lang said. Although traveling fifty miles a day is nothing on the flat ground, it is very rare on the rugged mountain road, let alone carrying so much weight.


    What''s more, although Zhuge Kongming''s Wooden cattle and horses are magical, they can only travel 30 miles in a group. In this regard, unicycles have occupied an advantage.


    "Mu Niu!" Kong Yingda couldn''t help but shrink his eyes. Zhuge Liang''s greatest use in creating Mu Niu Liuma is to transport grain on rugged mountain roads. Although the unicycle transformed by the Mohist school is not as magical as Mu Niu Liuma and can walk by itself, its cargo capacity and journey are not inferior.


    "Of course, in Mo''s opinion, this object is more practical for the industry. It can be used even in muddy construction sites, and it is convenient for loading and unloading." under the display of Merton, the iron bucket loaded on the unicycle can move and easily unload the full load of goods on the ground.


    "This thing must be of great use!" Li Yun''s eyes brightened. He is responsible for building the Weishui bridge, which requires a lot of work. If this unicycle can be used to help, it will greatly improve the efficiency.


    Many craftsmen at the scene could not help nodding. The unicycle improved by the Mohist school has indeed greatly improved its practicability.


    However, for ordinary people, it seems a little boring. After all, ordinary people don''t care about these, and this is not the original creation of Mohism.


    When Merton saw that the reaction was not strong, he naturally knew the reason. Then Lang said, "if only the Mohists improve the unicycle, there is no need for Mo to make a fool of himself."


    "Oh!"


    At this time, everyone was interested and looked forward to the next ink technology.


    Merton Lang said: "as we all know, wooden cattle and horses are the lost stunts of the Three Kingdoms period. The three kingdoms are Wei, Shu and Wu. The Three Kingdoms stand on top of each other. Wei is strong, and Shu and Wu unite against Wei. The three legs are the most stable."


    Yan shigu could not help nodding. As a historian, he was quite familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms and naturally agreed with Merton.


    Merton then said, "in Mohism, we also made good use of the power of three feet. The ancients cast tripods, respected three feet, and repaired nails,


    The triangle is the most stable in the one pulse of mathematics, which is recognized by the one pulse of mathematics. "


    Zu Mingjun, who went behind the scenes and did not leave, nodded slightly. The triangle is the focus of his current research. Naturally, he knows this feature.


    Li Yun''s eyes suddenly brightened and his heart suddenly brightened. He was working hard to stabilize the Weishui bridge, but mojiazi''s triangle theory gave him new inspiration. If he could use the stability of the triangle in the construction of the Weishui bridge, he would certainly increase the success rate of the Weishui bridge by another 10%.


    "Make a fool of yourself!" the Lord of the Wang family couldn''t help humming coldly. He was obsessed with power all his life. How can he understand these professional terms.


    "Maybe you think Mo is talking nonsense, and the reason why unicycles are convenient is to use the stability of triangles. The wheels are one corner and the two pillars are the remaining two corners. Connecting the triangles is not exactly a triangle, but what if we change the remaining two pillars into two wheels?" Merton smiled around the city, He lifted the next silk cloth, and suddenly a strange car appeared in front of the crowd.


    "Three wheels!" everyone was in an uproar. They didn''t expect that mojiazi actually built a car with three wheels.


    "Three wheels or a car?"


    "No, it''s still three fulcrums and an iron bucket. What''s the difference between unicycles!"


    Everyone was in an uproar. They looked at the strange car and whispered one after another.


    However, Gong Shuhong, the master craftsman, was keenly aware of the uniqueness of the car. Although the car in front of him was similar to a unicycle with two wheels, there was an additional seat in the front and rear wheels, let alone a gear structure under the seat.


    "If the unicycle is prepared for the mountain construction site, this car is prepared for the flat bottom. It can not only carry things, but also sit people," Merton said.


    "Sitting"


    The people immediately looked at each other. The car was to pull goods. If they sat on it, how could they go.


    "Could it be......" suddenly, Gongshu Hong''s eyes were hot and couldn''t believe staring at the gear structure under the seat.


    Merton jumped lightly and rode on the seat like a horse. He pushed the pedal under his feet. He saw that the tricycle didn''t use human and animal power, but moved like a horse.


    "How could this be possible!" suddenly, everyone present exclaimed.


    People with a little common sense know that it is either human or animal power to pull a car, and the tricycle shown by mojiazi actually walks with people on his own.


    "Stray horse!" Kong Yingda''s eyes were dull, and only these two words echoed in his mind.


    Although Mu Niu Liu Ma''s stories in the history books are miraculous, people know that most of them are probably exaggerated.


    However, mojiazi first used an improved deer cart to create a more convenient unicycle, which has been comparable to Zhuge Kongming''s Wooden cow, but it has not surpassed it. Now the displayed tricycle is amazing to the world. This tricycle can not only carry goods, but also carry people to walk by themselves. Isn''t it the same as the legendary quickhorse.


    No, it''s better than a quickhorse, because the "quickhorse" created by Mo Jiazi can carry goods and ride at the same time.


    "I see!" Gong Shuhong''s eyes flashed. As the top craftsman''s work, he naturally saw at a glance that the reason why the "quickhorse" made by the Mohist school can ride is the gear structure at his feet.


    "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. People rely on their feet to walk, while Mohists use their feet to drive gears to walk. In this way, it is a genius idea to integrate people and cars!" Gongshu Hao applauded the case.


    However, the craftsmen are extremely enthusiastic. The wooden cattle and horses are legends in the industry. Today, they are lucky enough to wait for their lifetime to see the wooden cattle and horses in the Tang Dynasty.


    "The Mohist school really deserves its reputation." many famous craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty were invited to the Mohist art exhibition. Originally, the Mohist School rose suddenly and stirred up the situation of the industrial world of the Tang Dynasty in just a few years. Most of the craftsmen who had been famous for a long time were still quite unconvinced by the Mohist school. Today, I see that the "stray horses" created by the Mohist school have been impressed.


    "It''s called a tricycle! The load on the flat ground is 500 kilograms, which is enough to travel hundreds of miles a day." Merton looked at this common thing in later generations, couldn''t help but show a nostalgic smile, patted the tricycle under him and shouted.


    Everyone couldn''t help but draw from the corners of their mouth. No one thought that the famous Mo family should be so straightforward. Of course, it''s hard to forget.


    In the box with the best position in the ink technology exhibition, Princess Changle heard Merton''s straightforward name. She rolled her eyes and touched her belly. She was deeply worried about her unborn child. She didn''t know what wonderful name would be in the future.

 Chapter 961

    "Travel hundreds of miles a day!"


    All of a sudden, everyone can''t help but feel excited. For an ordinary person, if he pulls 500 kilograms of goods, it''s the limit to walk 30 or 50 miles a day, but it''s almost impossible to walk 100 miles a day, even the strongest person can''t bear it.


    The tricycle made by Mohism is not. People can ride on it and only use their feet. In this way, they can greatly save physical strength, not to mention the gear machinery under their feet, lever principle, roller and a series of labor-saving devices, so as to achieve the miracle of traveling hundreds of miles a day.


    "This is the strength of Mohist ink skills." Kong Yingda sighed. Mohist ink technology can perfectly combine human and mechanical power. The power of one person can surpass the power of ten people through the blessing of Mohist ink technology. Such a powerful ink technology can not be slandered by a strange and erotic technology of Confucianism.


    "Ink skills!" Li Yun, Tian Mou and other Xiangfu people looked dignified. All along, they thought that they were the most loyal adherents of the Mohist school. Even if the Mohist school had such a great reputation, they also thought that the Mohist school had abandoned the idea of Mohist saint. However, today, Merton taught them a lesson with ink skills. Xiangfu''s abandoned ink skills have such great charm.


    "Mohism!"


    Gongshu Hong took a deep breath. Mohist school is worthy of being the opponent of Gongshu family for thousands of years. At present, Mohist school is at its peak, and Gongshu family has fallen too far behind. If Gongshu family doesn''t catch up, I''m afraid they won''t be qualified to be opponents with Gongshu family in the future.


    "It''s interesting!" the master of the Wang family said with great interest.


    Experts watch the doorway while laymen watch the excitement. In the eyes of the Wang family, the tricycle made by the Mohist school is just a little novel.


    "I didn''t expect that this Mohist had a special liking for wheel cars. Originally, he built a four-wheel carriage, a unicycle and a tricycle. I''m afraid there is a difference of two wheels." a busy people couldn''t help but coax.


    They had been looking forward to the ink technology exhibition and wanted the ink family to reproduce the miracles of the previous ink technology exhibitions. However, although the two cars were comparable to wooden cattle and horses, they were just two cars in their eyes. There was no small hole imaging and artificial rainbow to attract people''s attention.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, the mojiazi lifted the curtain again. It was a two wheeled car.


    The people immediately looked at each other. They didn''t expect that the Mo family was so crazy that they didn''t even let go of the two wheeled car.


    "Compared with the first two cars, this car is Mo''s favorite car, but if Mo calls it a two wheeled car, I''m afraid the Imperial College will remove Mo tomorrow and warn Mo that the Imperial College can''t afford to lose that person in the future, let alone the Imperial College." Merton smiled at Kong Yingda''s box.


    Everyone burst into laughter. I''m afraid such a simple name really doesn''t accord with the talent name of Mozi.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help laughing bitterly, but Kong Desheng couldn''t close his mouth and shouted that the MOH family was interesting.


    "This car is named bike!" Merton patted the two wheeled car behind him, which impressively looks like a bicycle in later generations.


    "Bicycle!"


    Princess Changle can''t help but bow her head and help her forehead. She can''t help worrying about her children. It seems that her father really doesn''t have the talent to name.


    People can''t help smiling. Although the name bicycle sounds better than a two wheeled car, it''s not much better.


    Only the craftsmen present laughed and tasted the words "bicycle" carefully, and their faces became more and more dignified. One by one, they frowned at the rudimentary two wheeled cart around mojiazi. However, it was also an iron frame, plus two wheels. How to bear the word "self".


    "As the name suggests, the so-called bicycle principle is the same as the tricycle just now, that is, as long as people sit on it and pedal it, it''s like walking on their own." Merton said proudly on his face.


    "How could it be?" everyone was in an uproar. Just now, mojiazi personally admitted that only three points can balance the car. If the car with only two wheels can''t even balance, how can it move.


    "I wonder if anyone would like to try the car himself." Merton suddenly smiled cunningly.


    "I''ll come!" Qin Huaiyu, who has been itching for a long time, can''t wait to get on the stage. Chumo is the first to grab the bike with his brute force and first mover advantage.


    As soon as Qin Huaiyu saw that he had lost his first opportunity, he had an idea and stepped onto the tricycle on one side, leaving Wei Chi Baolin with a disdainful look at the unicycle around him.


    "It''s amazing!" Qin Huaiyu suddenly said in surprise. Staring at the tricycle with her feet, she could walk easily without much effort.


    Chumo doesn''t want to be outdone. As soon as he lifts his foot, he steps on the bike and kicks it hard. The bike suddenly moves. However, he can''t walk three or five steps. He wobbles and can''t control his balance. He flops to the ground.


    "Ha ha!" was immediately laughed at by Qin Huaiyu, who was riding a tricycle leisurely.


    Chumo can''t stand it. He immediately gets up and tries again. Unfortunately, the result is the same as before, and he falls even harder.


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin also tried, and the result was the same outcome. They were proficient in 18 kinds of martial arts on weekdays, but they were helpless in the face of the bicycle in front of them. Finally, they had to step down dejected.


    "Maybe someone will say that this car is just two wheels, and it can''t even stand upright. How can it carry people?" Merton laughed.


    A group of craftsmen also frowned and said that they didn''t agree with the unicycle. The tricycle was still within their understanding, but the bicycle in front of them confused them. Moreover, they knew that mojiazi couldn''t aim at nothing. How did the two wheeled bicycle walk.


    Merton looked around and Lang said, "in Mozi''s secret book, a child once asked Mo Sheng. I heard that you are proficient in various mechanisms. I wonder if you can let the stone float on the water."


    "Let the stone float on the water!" everyone looked at each other. The stone sank to the bottom of the water, which is recognized all over the world. How can it float on the water.


    "Mohist tried many methods, but none failed. The child said, I can, so I picked up a pebble and threw it out. The pebble floated on the water and floated far and far. Mohist thought deeply and sighed: the only thing that can make the stone float on the water is speed." Merton said.


    They suddenly realized, frowned and looked at the bike beside Merton. They couldn''t understand how the two wheeled car ran.


    "Sun Tzu''s art of war once said: the disease of exciting water, as for the boulder, the potential is also. The speed determines whether the stone can float, and the same is true for the bicycle in hand. As long as the speed is fast, even the two wheeled car can walk." Merton proudly stepped onto the bicycle and pedaled hard, and the bicycle ran quickly and smoothly.


    "Ah!"


    The skill of riding a bicycle, which is very common in later generations, immediately surprised four people.


    Everyone stretched out their heads one by one and watched mojiazi gallop around the venue on his bicycle. The bicycle that couldn''t even stand well in the hands of Qin Huaiyu was like an arm in the hands of mojiazi, and the speed was fast.


    Merton rode his bike, and after a circle, he was reluctant to leave.


    "You can see the speed of the bicycle just now. Although pedaling with all your strength is almost the same as riding a horse, according to the Mohist measurement, if you ride this car alone, the brick road can travel 150 miles a day, and even the rural road can travel 100 miles a day easily." Merton threw out another heavy message.


    "Wow!"


    All of a sudden there was an uproar. One hundred and fifty miles is not a small number. If someone rides a horse, he can naturally reach this speed, but the problem is that the price of feeding a horse is not affordable for ordinary people. If he can ride a bicycle for one hundred miles, it will only take two bowls of dry rice. This is an epoch-making means of transportation.


    "Hoo!"


    Kong Yingda breathed heavily, and his face became more and more dignified. If we say that the unicycle and tricycle were the wooden cattle and horses of the Mohist school at that time, and the bicycle of the Mohist school was beyond the concept of wooden cattle and horses, although Zhuge Kongming''s Wooden cattle and horses are said to be divine in the history books, anyone with knowledge knows it, I''m afraid there is no so-called wooden cattle and horses walking by themselves in this world, otherwise they will not be lost to this day. Today, the mojiazi not only achieved Zhuge Kongming''s Wooden cattle and horses, but even better, and created bicycles almost equal to horses.


    Merton''s words turned: "unfortunately, although this bike is magical, it is not mature and has not been mass produced. If you want to overcome difficulties in the future and want to build a car, you are welcome to Mo, but remember to pay Mo a patent fee."


    If a bicycle wants to ride easily, it must be light and strong. The spokes of the wheel alone failed to pass, let alone the steel ring of the wheel. The bicycle in Merton''s hand is polished by a Mohist craftsman, which can be used. At present, self driving is only theoretically feasible.


    In an instant, many people''s eyes were crazy. Anyone could see that bicycles must be an excellent substitute for horses, and there would be a big market. Even if they gave mojiazi half of the patent fee, they would make a lot of money.


    "Worth the trip!"


    They were so excited that they thought the ink exhibition was very boring. They didn''t nod until they saw the magical bicycle. It was the original formula.


    "Mohism is really extraordinary!"


    Even the well-informed and old masters of the family with five surnames and seven hopes could not help nodding, and their attention to Mohism was raised to a higher level.


    "Mozi said: it is good for people to be clever, but bad for people to be clumsy."


    The public losers were even more embarrassed. The bike made by Mozi completely crushed the pride of the public loser, which reminded him of the debate between Mozi and the public loser class about Muque. Mozi used this sentence to the point and made the public loser class speechless.


    Now that the millennium has passed, the Mohist family has once again verified what Mozi said in those years. It can be called Qiao only if it is beneficial to the people. Whether it is the Mohist unicycle, tricycle or the magical bicycle in front of the people, it is useful and useful to the people.


    "This is the cleverness of Mohism!" Gong Shuhong sighed in his heart.

 Chapter 962

    Although the ink skills displayed by the following Mohists were equally surprised, their popularity was all covered up by bicycles. Soon, with the end of the ink technology exhibition, people still remembered such a magical bicycle.


    "Successful conclusion!" Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Only this session of ink technology exhibition was pure Mohist ink technology, and Merton thought it would be particularly dull. Fortunately, the Mohists invited many craftsmen, most of whom knew the craft well. In addition, the magical bicycle saved the situation, which brought this ink technology exhibition to a successful conclusion.


    "The master also said that the ink art exhibition was dull. From the disciple''s point of view, this session was the most wonderful." Wu Meiniang cupped her mouth and helped the obviously pregnant Princess Changle to come over.


    After the influence of Mohism, she has completely become a technology party and is more interested in these machines.


    "The prime minister reappears the wooden cattle and horses of the gods of Zhuge. Even if I am a woman, people know that it is used by the National University. How can I feel dull?" Princess Changle looked at her husband with an admiring face.


    Merton said proudly on his face: "that''s natural, but even if the unicycle and tricycle are not in line with the temperament of the lady, wait for the husband to ride a bicycle and take the lady for a ride, which makes them envy."


    "By the way, where''s my bike?" Merton looked around and found that both unicycles and tricycles were there, but the bike was gone.


    Wu Mei Niang covered her mouth and said with a smile, "I just saw three martial uncles carrying them and sneaked out the back door."


    "The bike was stolen!" Merton was suddenly in a mess in the wind. How did he feel that this scene was particularly familiar? Later generations, he rode out once again with the bike he just bought, and was shun away by the murderous car thief.


    "Damn car thief!" Morton said, gnashing his teeth. It was something he carefully prepared to show off. It was stolen just once.


    "They made a fool of themselves on the stage. I think the three must go back and practice cycling hard." Princess Changle was not only angry but also funny to the childish four.


    "They must have deliberately retaliated for their husband. Do you know how much effort it takes to build this bike?" Merton said angrily.


    If you want to build a qualified bicycle, many parts need to be made manually by Mojia village. At present, it''s just this one, which was taken away by Qin Huaiyu.


    "Well, let Uncle Zhang build another one in the future. Anyway, I''m pregnant and shouldn''t ride a bike." Princess Changle comforted.


    Morton nodded helplessly. The good things came into Qin Huaiyu''s hands. He would not spit them out. He had to build another one.


    Unable to take a bike ride with Changle, with a depressed mood, Merton reluctantly took a car with Princess Changle to go home.


    As soon as I returned to the Mo mansion, I saw Fu Bo greet me with a dignified face.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton asked casually.


    "Go back to the young master, five surnames and seven hopes, send a prayer note, and want to visit the Mo house in the afternoon!" Fu Bo said with a frozen face.


    "Who?" Merton was stunned.


    "Five surnames and seven hopes, and the aristocratic family leader came to pay a visit in person!" Fubo said solemnly.


    "Hoo!"


    Merton exhaled heavily and wholeheartedly revived the Mohist school. Naturally, he should pay attention to the trend of the world. Naturally, he knows how powerful the forces of five surnames and seven hopes are. Although Merton won a lucky victory against the Taiyuan Wang family, he just fought with the younger generation of the Taiyuan Wang family, which did not lead to the terrible behemoth of the Taiyuan Wang family.


    Not to mention that the five surnames and seven hopes have been intertwined through marriage. They have long been connected by blood, watching and helping each other, not to mention that they are intertwined through marriage. More than 30% of the three grade officials in the current Dynasty are children of the Qiwang aristocratic family with the five surnames. 70% are married to the Qiwang aristocratic family with the five surnames. Apart from others, the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty, Fang Xuanling, and his wife, Lu, are from the Lu family, one of the Qiwang. It can be imagined how deeply the five surnames and Qiwang permeate the court.


    Usually, in order to avoid suspicion, they would not take collective action. The last time they united was to help Li Tang win the world. However, after 20 years, they actually visited Mohism again. How can we not let Merton think more.


    "My husband, five surnames and seven hopes are not good!" Princess Changle said anxiously.


    It is reasonable to say that Li Tang, as a royal family, should be supreme. However, according to the genealogy, Li Shimin is probably only a branch of the Li family in Longxi, and it is a smaller one. However, it is said that there is no Millennium Dynasty, only a millennium family. This is not an exaggeration, but a true portrayal of the five surnames and seven hopes of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Soldiers will block the water and cover the earth! Although the aristocratic family is strong, this is Chang''an City, not Taiyuan, nor Boling, Fanyang and Xingyang..." Merton said calmly. The reason why the aristocratic family is strong is his deep-rooted rule and influence on the local area. Out of their hometown, although the aristocratic family has a great reputation, the Mohist family is not afraid.


    "Clean the courtyard! Get ready to welcome distinguished guests!" Merton waved his big hand, and a group of Mohist children took action one after another to clean the whole Mohist house.


    A squeak.


    Seven four wheeled carriages produced by the common Mojia village in the market stopped in front of the Mojia house, and seven old people like ordinary brocade robes got off. No one thought that these ordinary seven old people were the heads of the aristocratic families with the deepest five surnames and seven hopes in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Please tell me that the Taiyuan Wang family came to visit mohou."


    "Fan Yang Lu family,..."


    "Boling Cui family............"


    Each aristocratic family reported to the door and frowned at the Fu Bo who had been waiting towards the door. They were the famous Wuwang seven surnames of the Tang Dynasty. They were waited at the door by their master when they went to that place on weekdays. What''s more, they had already paid homage, but the mo family sent only a housekeeper to wait at the door.


    Fubo solemnly saluted: "please, my young master has been waiting in the living room!"


    Qiwang went in under the leadership of Fubo under the pressure of his unhappiness.


    However, the Zheng family leader in Xingyang, who was the last one, was bitter. At the beginning, he knew that Zheng Chonghua liked mojiazi, but mojiazi exposed his love because of a song "the jade case on New Year''s Eve". Although he knew that mojiazi was a rare good match, how could the legitimate daughter of the great Zheng family come to the door to be a little girl? He did his best to stop it.


    Unfortunately, with the recovery of the eldest grandson queen, although Zheng Chonghua was favored in the Imperial Palace, he was far from the queen the Zheng family wanted, and the Zheng family did not get the expected benefits.


    Instead of this, it''s better to marry Zheng Chonghua to the Mohist family. Now why should he personally come to the Mohist house and ask for any Mohist skills? The Mohist family hasn''t sent them, and it''s not even impossible to surpass the other six.


    The Zheng family leader shook his head and put this unrealistic idea behind his head. There is no regret in the world. It is useless to say more about this matter. Moreover, this time they are a joint visit of seven aristocratic families. At that time, few people can dare to refuse Wuwang and Qixing.


    The seven people confidently stepped into the ink house. When they just landed, they found that the ground was extremely smooth. All the roads in the ink house were like a whole.


    "Is this cement?" Zheng''s master was surprised.


    The output of cement created by mojiazi and Taoism is scarce, which is rare for ordinary people. At present, cement is only supplied everywhere, including the new house of mojiazi and Princess Changle, the construction of Huashan plank road, the Weishui bridge and the building of women''s and children''s Hospital under construction.


    "But who would have thought that the Mexican family was so extravagant that they took cement to pave the road."


    The seven owners couldn''t help but move in their hearts. They were afraid that mojiazi would not enter the oil and salt, fish for fame and cherish their feathers. Since mojiazi pursued a luxurious life, it would be easy to do.


    Fubo saw all the owners staring at the road under his feet, smiled knowingly and explained, "you don''t know, this is the future road designed by my young master, the cement road."


    "Cement road!" Zheng''s master frowned and asked, "as far as I know, the brick road created by mohou is because of its high cost. It has not yet passed the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid the cost of this cement road will be more than 100 times that of the brick road."


    Merton happened to appear. He smiled, greeted him and said: "I''ve seen your predecessors, but you don''t know. Although the cost of cement is expensive at present, with the improvement of Mohist technology, the price will certainly decline in the future, and it will be only two to three times more expensive. Although the brick road is good, it can only be used for more than ten years. The service life of a cement road can reach more than 100 years. The saved human, material and financial resources alone are very significant Here we are. Recently, Mexican magazine has repeatedly reported that cars and horses accidentally hurt pedestrians on the brick road. In Mo''s vision, we are going to lay another cement road along the brick road between Chang''an and Luoyang. The brick road is open to pedestrians, and the cement road is dedicated for cars and horses to fly thousands of miles a day. In this way, we can have the best of both worlds. "


    "It is widely said that Marquis Mo not only has the ability to govern heaven and earth, but also has the heart of compassion. Today, it is not falsely said."


    Zheng''s family leader praised that the brick road from Chang''an to Luoyang is very prosperous. Even though the brick road has been widened a lot, it is still not enough. If we build a cement road for cars and horses, it will solve this problem perfectly.


    "This thing must be of great use! Marquis Mo is really extraordinary. The carriage hurt people, but when it started, marquis Mo thought of a solution!"


    Other aristocratic family owners also nodded. Cement can not only build high-rise bridges, but also pave roads. One kind of aristocratic family owners are people who have seen the world. They can see the value of sleeping you at a glance.


    "You''re flattered!" Morton said modestly, inviting the owners into the living room.


    "Gentlemen, please sit down!"


    "Mo Hou, please!"


    Everyone was modest, so they took their seats one after another.


    "You are all masters of the dragon. People all over the world want to see each other, but they can''t. today you can come to the ink house, which really makes the ink house shine!" Merton said calmly.


    "The ink house is full of ink skills of the Mohists. It should be said that I and others are eye openers." the master of the Wang family sighed, "in fact, I came to ask for a medicine today."


    Merton looked at Wang''s family leader without any trace. Naturally, he was deeply impressed by the Wang''s family leader who asked him yesterday. Then he put down his tea cup and said in a loud voice, "is it true that what elder Wang said is green dragon medicine! What''s the difficulty? It''s not easy for ordinary people to raise money. Mo believes it''s not difficult for Wuwang and Qixing aristocratic families."


    The leader of the Wang family shook his head and said, "blindly taking Qinglong real medicine may bring great wealth to the Wuwang Qixing family, but it can''t save Wuwang Qixing. What we want is the medicine that can save my Wuwang Qixing."

 Chapter 963

    Morton was stunned, then shook his head and said with a smile: "Master Wang is joking with the boy. The five surnamed Qiwang aristocratic family is the most distinguished master of the Tang Dynasty. The Millennium aristocratic family is at the height of the sun, and master Zheng is a relative of the emperor. Who will be embarrassed in the world."


    The master of the Wang family looked at Merton deeply and said, "the Zhenguan law is being formulated in the dynasty, which stipulates that among the aristocratic families, all sons share the family property equally. Within three generations, the world will no longer have five and seven surnames, and only small families are still splitting."


    Merton looked at the king''s master in surprise and said, "all the people in the world know that the palm and back of the hand are meat, and they are their own children. It''s a good thing that all the family masters open branches and leaves and have a strong population."


    Zheng''s family leader Leng hum said: "it''s all right. Last year, Confucianism and Mohism promoted homonymy. Confucianism changed the private schools in the world into primary schools. Even the poor farmers'' children can go to school. At that time, the poor students will be hundreds of times better than the aristocratic family. I''m afraid that if our five surnames and seven hopes can''t last three generations, they have disappeared from the court."


    As soon as Merton''s eyes shrunk, he found that if he underestimated the ancients, he was a fool. Confucianism had just promoted primary school. Not long ago, five surnames and seven looks had been keenly aware of the consequences. This alone was shocking.


    "Lord Mo was one of the few talented people in the world at that time. I''m sure he won''t fail to see this. Moreover, the contribution of Lord Mo is not small. The engraving and printing technology came from the Third Master of Mohism. The reason why the sons divided the family property equally was because of Wu Meiniang, an apprentice of Lord Mo, and the primary education originated from the compulsory education in Mohist village." Fan Yang Lu''s family Master said slowly.


    Other family owners nodded one after another. Originally, they were sitting back and enjoying prosperity and wealth as five surnames and seven hopes. However, they didn''t expect that the situation had changed greatly in just a few years. The originally high five surnames and seven hopes had been shaky. I''m afraid the biggest hero is the Mexican family who belongs to catfish.


    Suddenly, seven plainly dressed old people even brought mountain of pressure to Merton. Merton couldn''t help frowning. Although the Mohist school had developed for a long time, it was still far from being compared with the five surnames and seven looks, let alone the seven families united to deal with the Mohist family.


    But Merton turned his eyebrows and said with a slight smile, "the medicine you want to save five surnames and seven hopes is the Mohist ink technique."


    "Tie the bell and need to untie the bell, mohou is really smart!" the king''s family leader looked at Merton with appreciation. He thought that the MOH family would panic under the pressure of their seven aristocratic families. Unexpectedly, he thought of the key in the twinkling of an eye.


    Although the five surnames Qiwang are respected, they are also guarded by the government and the public. In the former dynasty, Yang Guang once vigorously suppressed the aristocratic family. They spent so much energy to help the Tang Dynasty destroy the Sui Dynasty, but they didn''t expect that it had only been quiet for 20 years. Now Li Shimin is beginning to suppress the five surnames Qiwang again, and this time, the five surnames Qiwang sees an unprecedented crisis, Yang Guang''s crackdown was only temporary. I don''t know how many people had experienced such crackdown on the five surnames and seven hopes. Finally, the aristocratic families laughed to the end, and one dynasty fell, while the five surnames and seven hopes stood for thousands of years.


    Li Shimin''s second push for grace and the rise of the cold door are to fundamentally suppress the five surnames and seven hopes. The terror of push for grace has been verified by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and many prominent princes have disappeared.


    As for the rise of the poor family, it is a sharp sword hanging over the head of the aristocratic family. It is impolite to say that the most fundamental reason why Wuxing Qiwang can flourish for thousands of years is that they control education and occupy the court. Only when they have power can they continuously accumulate and protect the wealth status of Wuxing Qiwang. Once they lose their rights, the aristocratic families defeated by Wuxing Qiwang are their lessons.


    Originally, they were at a loss, and the rise of Mohism gave them hope. Anyone can sit in an official position and learn four books and five classics, but not ink technology. Ink technology is unique. With ink technology, they can have a steady stream of wealth, which has been proved by the rise of Mohist village.


    As long as the seven aristocratic families have Mohist ink skills, they will have a steady stream of money. Even if they compromise with the imperial court, they can still maintain a detached position.


    "Why is it difficult?" Merton waved his hand and opened his mouth.


    "So, mohou agreed!" the aristocratic family leader of Wuwang and Qixing couldn''t help but rejoice in his heart.


    "It''s natural. You can use any ink technology patented by the Mohist school. The Mohist school only needs a little patent fee. If you don''t understand anything, it''s not even necessary for the Mohist school to help." Merton said generously.


    However, the faces of all aristocratic families sank. If they only used the ink skills published by the Mohist school, why did they come to the door in person? How could they see that little money in their eyes.


    The master of the Wang family said coldly, "Lord Mo won''t play us like monkeys! What we want is a good medicine with five surnames and seven hopes, not something that the Mohists don''t want, and we won''t lose our value and compete with some businessmen and craftsmen."


    It is conceivable that once the Mohist School announced the Mohist ink technology on its own initiative, there will be countless profit seekers competing to use it. How can the five surnames and seven hopes be willing to compete for the bones lost by the Mohist school like others.


    Zheng''s master opened the door to the mountain and said, "what we want is Mohist glass, cement, steel making and Qinglong real medicine and ink."


    "Moreover, for Qinglong genuine medicine, mohou needs to set another threshold and authorize only seven of our companies to produce it." the owner of the Cui family in Boling said for the first time.


    "And in the future, we will give priority to seven Mohist schools in ink technology,........." Cui Qinghe said unwilling to show weakness.


    Merton rose abruptly and said: "Is it possible that these secret skills are the foundation of Mohist village? Even Qinglong genuine medicine can''t agree with me. This is a life-saving medicine for people all over the world and can''t become a private tool for personal wealth. This is contrary to the idea of Mohist. Not to mention Mohist, even doctors can''t agree, let alone the priority selection of five hopes and seven surnames of Mohist in the future, It is impossible for the Mohists to give their lifeblood to others. "


    Merton''s overreaction was not beyond the expectation of the leaders of many aristocratic families. The Lord of the Wang family said faintly: "Marquis Merton, take it easy. If you heard our sincerity, you wouldn''t think so."


    Merton sneered, "I''ll see what price you''re going to pay. I think you can exchange with the lifeblood of the Mohist school."


    The Lord of the Wang family showed a trace of pride and said, "since Mo Hou knows my five surnames and seven hopes, we naturally know that we are the first aristocratic families in the world. As long as we give an order, the aristocratic families in the world will echo. We know that Mo Hou''s greatest ideal is to revive the Mohist school, which is easy for us to reverse."


    "Easy as a palm?" Merton frowned and looked at Wang''s master, with a look of disbelief.


    "Yes, as long as the Mohist family and my five surnames and seven hopes cooperate, all family officials in the world will pave the way for the Mohist family, the goods in the Mohist village can pass through the country unimpeded, and the banks in the Mohist village can open all over the Tang Dynasty in the shortest time, so as to truly connect the world. The Mohist scriptures will enter the school and openly publicize the Mohist ideas. Within three or five years, the children of the Mohist family will certainly travel all over the country The Mohist school will surely be revived in the Tang Dynasty, and even surpassing Confucianism is just around the corner. "Wang''s family leader said excitedly.


    Every time the master of the Wang family said a word, Merton''s breath became heavier. Reviving the Mohist school is Merton''s lifelong belief. However, reviving the Mohist school is just around the corner, how can he not make Merton excited.


    "Mohist family and aristocratic family have two advantages and two disadvantages. I believe mohou will make the right choice." Zheng''s family leader seduced him aside.


    "Even with our help, Mojia village may not be the next aristocratic family. I''m afraid it will be changed to six surnames and eight hopes at that time." the leader of Li''s family in Longxi whispered.


    Merton couldn''t help struggling for a while. He knew that once he cooperated with the aristocratic family, the future of the Mohist family would be a hundred times easier and could achieve leapfrog development. However, Merton hesitated when such a god given opportunity was placed in front of Merton.


    "What did you pay?" Merton asked suddenly.


    "Ah!" the aristocratic family leaders were stunned and looked at Merton.


    Merton said positively, "in this transaction, the Mohists have paid the ink skills they rely on for survival, and what have you paid?"


    "We......" the Wang family leader was stunned and stammered.


    All the family leaders wanted to stop talking. They could be as skillful as a tongue spring, but they knew that all this could not deceive the noble Mohist family. In this transaction, the five surnames and seven hopes paid only illusory promises, which would not hurt the muscles and bones regardless of success or failure, and the real bet was Mohist.


    "Is it not enough that we can guarantee the revival of Mohism?" Zheng''s master frowned.


    Merton chuckled: "You all complain about the suppression of the five surnames and seven hopes by the emperors of previous dynasties, and the rise of the poor family threatens the foundation of the five surnames and seven hopes. The reason why you hold the position of the five surnames and seven hopes is that you control the power. The promotion of primary school will make the children of the poor family rise, so that you can no longer control the government. Without power, you can''t maintain the position of monopoly power and seize power Great wealth ensures your luxurious life. That''s why emperors have suppressed you, because you are rice worms of the imperial court, hamsters of the Empire and blood sucking insects of the Tang Dynasty. You keep lying behind the Tang Dynasty to absorb blood. Who can tolerate a gadfly constantly sucking blood behind you? "


    "Bold! How dare you slander the five surnames and seven outlooks." the leader of the Li family in Zhaojun was furious and shouted.


    Merton said without fear: "Isn''t it? Everyone knows that as long as you make Qinglong genuine medicine, there will be a steady stream of wealth. Anyone will be very happy to own a pharmaceutical factory. However, your family is not satisfied. You want to swallow the most lucrative profits alone, even regardless of the life and death of the people all over the world. You still don''t admit your greed or that you are the blood sucking insects of the Tang Dynasty."


    "You......" the master of the Wang family pointed to Merton and his face changed wildly.


    "What you promised can indeed revive Mohism, but it is also the use of your power. If Mo agrees to your conditions, wouldn''t he become a vampire of the Tang dynasty like you? A Mohist village that has abandoned Mohist ideas is not a real revival of Mohism, even if it is developing strong." Merton said proudly.


    "Do you know the consequences of your rejection of the five surnames and seven hopes!" the Zhao family leader said coldly, and the other family leaders also looked at Merton.


    Merton laughed and said, "it seems that what Mo said is good. What you five surnames and seven hopes rely on is just the power in your hands. Of course, Mo knows that after today, the Mohist village will be in trouble."


    The master of the Wang family said coldly, "please, we still have time."


    Merton laughed and said, "it''s a joke. You five surnames and seven Wangs have noticed the end. Come to me for medicine. Why should the Mohist cooperate with the losers!"


    "Loser!"


    All the aristocratic family leaders changed their colors suddenly. They are the five most powerful families in China. They have always been high above the world. They have been winners for thousands of years. Even if the dynasty changes, they can''t stand down. When will they be called losers.


    "You think I''ve been vegetarian for thousands of years. My family has stood for thousands of years. What kind of storms have I never seen? What''s this?" the owner of Li''s family in Longxi said coldly.


    "What are you afraid of? Why do you want Mohist ink skills? You don''t want to leave a way back for your family." Merton asked.


    "Since the Mohists don''t want to make friends with the five surnames and seven hopes, they have to have enemies!" the Wang family leader said coldly. Last time, the Wang family leader didn''t want to do anything special in Chang''an City and didn''t break up with the Mohist village. This time, he will never show mercy again.


    "Farewell! I hope mohou will not regret it." Zheng''s family leader took the lead in getting up and said coldly


    Other aristocratic family leaders got up one after another, brushed their sleeves and left.


    "Wait a minute!" Murton said suddenly.


    Many aristocratic family leaders turned around one after another and were secretly proud. If they wanted to come to Mohist school, they must be pretending to be tough.


    However, they were disappointed. Merton said slowly, "since you have come to ask Mo for medicine, Mo has a good prescription that can save five surnames and seven hopes."


    "I''d like to hear the details!" said the master of the Lu family in Fan Yang.


    "The reason why the five surnames and seven hopes have been suppressed repeatedly is that you don''t work, but continue to absorb the people''s fat and cream, which will damage the world and benefit the family. If you use ink technology to create the needs of the people and contribute huge taxes to the imperial court, which is not only beneficial to the world but also self-interest, this is the good medicine that can really get the family out of trouble." Merton Lang said.


    Building workshops often requires huge funds and money. The original accumulation of ordinary craftsmen is too slow. If the Mohist family can transform a number of aristocratic families, invest in workshops and promote ink technology, the revival of the Mohist family will be greatly accelerated.


    Boling Cui''s eyes shrunk, as if he wanted to see through the Mohist son and said, "the Mohist family doesn''t need an aristocratic family, but the Mohist family wants to dominate and let our aristocratic family respect Mohism."


    "Hahaha, it''s wishful thinking! It''s wishful thinking that a broken Mohist school wants to hold my five surnames and seven looks at one head." the Wang family leader said angrily. The Wang family has passed on for thousands of years. It is known as the king but not the king. The tiger''s ass can''t be touched. How can you be willing to let a Taisui master sit on your head.


    Other aristocratic family leaders are also furious. They are dignified Wuwang and Qixing. How can they be willing to be ridden by a hairy boy.


    Merton shook his head and said, "there will be no shop after this village. Even the aristocratic families that the Mohist public ink technology wants can be found everywhere. If the Wuwang seven surname really leaves, how can it cover the sky in the Tang Dynasty? If the Wuwang seven surname regrets at that time, there will be no chance today."


    The master of the Wang family sneered, "it depends on who gives in first!"


    Five hopes and seven surnames have stood for thousands of years. A small Mohist school is nothing. The hundred school theory is just a tool in their hands. They can use Confucianism to control education and power, and use Ziqian family to absorb wealth from the world. They believe that the so-called Mohist school will certainly become their medicine, A medicine that can bring five hopes and seven surnames back to life.

 Chapter 964

    After leaving the Mo mansion, the seven hope aristocratic family leaders collectively boarded a carriage. The atmosphere on the carriage was very dull. No one thought that the Mo family dared to refuse the five surnames seven hope, which embarrassed the confident people.


    "Everybody! Since the Mohists don''t appreciate it, how should we go next?" Zheng''s master frowned.


    "Hubris and arrogance. The Mohist family thought it was still a big thing of the pre-Qin Mohist family. The Mohist family had declined for thousands of years. It was not easy to improve. The Mohist family began to be arrogant." Leng hum, the master of the Wang family.


    "As long as we destroy the foundation of the Mohist village, the Mohist will obediently obey." the Cui family leader of Boling said coldly.


    "But!"


    All the aristocratic family leaders nodded their heads and agreed with Cui''s proposal. After 20 years of silence, the five surnames and seven hopes were almost forgotten. Even the newly revived Mohist school was ignored. In that case, they took a knife at Mohist school to frighten the world.


    "Your enemies are friends. We want to defeat Mohism, and an old friend of ours probably wants to defeat Mohism more." the leader of Cui family in Qinghe suddenly said.


    "What brother Cui said is!" the king thought.


    "Confucian Kong Desheng!" the leader of the Cui family in Qinghe believed. Compared with the contradiction between Wuwang and Qixing and Mohism, the two millennium rivals of Confucianism and Mohism probably want to defeat each other more.


    "The enemy of the enemy is a friend! Brother Cui''s plan is really wonderful!" the Lord of the Wang family applauded.


    "However, Confucianism wants to forge ahead because of the sudden rise of Mohism. If we unite Confucianism to defeat Mohism, without the catfish of Mohism, the Tang Dynasty will certainly return to its original state, and my five surnames and seven hopes will rest easy." said the leader of the Li family in Longxi.


    "In that case, I''ll meet this old friend later!" Cui''s master Lang said.


    The seven ignored one eye and nodded slowly. The carriage turned slowly and went towards Confucius house.


    "You brothers, you are safe after 30 years of absence!" Kong Desheng laughed loudly when he saw the arrival of his old friends for many years in the Confucius house.


    "Yes! We were so elated when we gathered in Chang''an to study. We didn''t expect that we would have white hair when we saw each other for 30 years." the head of the Cui family in Boling sighed.


    "I''ve seen your elders!" Kong Yingda bowed forward. Although Kong Yingda is an important official in the court, he has seen these antiques. He has to perform younger generation rites regardless of his status or seniority.


    "Kong''s wine offering is the best descendant of the Kong family. Today, it really deserves its reputation." the Wang family leader couldn''t help but exclaim.


    "You guys are flattered. Yingda''s achievements are not worth mentioning." Kong Yingda said modestly.


    "It''s said that the Confucius family has a lot of talents. Not only does the Confucius sacrifice wine rank high in the court, but also a younger generation is determined to create the method of homonymy. Entering liaozhou alone has the style of Confucius traveling around the world. It''s really enviable!" the master of the Lu family praised.


    "The five surnamed Qiwang aristocratic family is a scholarly family with a rich family tradition, and the family''s children are full of talents." Kong Yingda flattered each other.


    They exchanged greetings for a while, and then they took their seats one after another.


    "Most of your old friends haven''t been out of the county for ten or twenty years. I don''t know what brings you to Chang''an city today." Kong De Shenglang said.


    The king smiled mysteriously, looked at Kong Desheng and said, "brother Kong hasn''t been out of Qufu for 20 years, and hasn''t come to Chang''an city thousands of miles."


    Kong Desheng''s eyes flashed, and he looked at each other with all his old friends. He burst into laughter and tacitly understood each other. They all knew that the reason why they came was probably because of the Mohist school.


    "At the beginning, we married a golden orchid in Chang''an City, sharing weal and woe. Now we heard that brother Kong went to Chang''an City alone to solve the great trouble of Confucianism. Today, we came to help brother Kong." Lang Sheng, the leader of the Zheng family, said.


    "Are you talking about Mohism!" Kong Desheng said bluntly without detours.


    "Of course!" Zheng''s head said.


    Kong Desheng looked at Zheng''s family leader in surprise, and then looked at you. He turned his head and looked at other old friends. The other family leaders nodded solemnly, with a look of duty bound to go through fire and water.


    "I don''t know how your old friends can help Confucianism." Kong Desheng was not moved by it, but frowned.


    The master of the Zheng family said proudly, "we, the five Wangs and the seven surnames, decided to unite. As long as we shout, we can certainly cut off the Mohist business road, slow-moving goods and loss of workers. Within half a year, the Mohist village must be at its end. What is it to lose the Mohist in the Mohist village?"


    Kong Desheng shook his head slightly and said, "there is a treasure pot of Mojia village bank in Mojia village, and there are millions of deposits. This loss will not hurt the muscles and bones at all."


    Lord Wang nodded: "It''s easy to do. Just let me say hello. Merchants and aristocratic families who deposit money into the aristocratic family will withdraw money from the Bank of Mojia village one after another. Those mud legs are the most driven people. As long as the situation is wrong, I believe they must be the fastest group of people. At that time, the goods of Mojia village can''t be sold, and the Bank of Mojia village will be in large deficit, even if Zhuge Kongming is alive , I''m afraid I don''t have the strength to turn over. "


    Kong Desheng couldn''t help but take a breath. If the five surnames and seven hopes really did so, I''m afraid Mohist Zi wouldn''t last long. Kong Desheng couldn''t help surging at the thought of easily defeating the opponent of Confucianism for thousands of years.


    "There is no free lunch in the world. I''m afraid it won''t be so simple to help Confucianism with five surnames and seven hopes!" Kong Yingda suddenly said.


    Kong Desheng was shocked. Kong Yingda''s words can be said to wake up the person in his dream. As an old friend of the seven people for many years, he has personally seen the true face of the seven people who eat people and don''t spit bones. On weekdays, they cherish feathers very much. They don''t hesitate to put down their body to deal with the Mohist school. Obviously, they have greater demands.


    Wang''s family master''s eyes flashed, gave Kong Yingda a deep look and said, "the help between friends is naturally mutual, but nephew Kong xianniece can rest assured. This time, I just need the Kong family to help me and wait for a small favor."


    "But it doesn''t hurt to say!" Kong Desheng said frankly. He wanted to add another sentence. He would never quit as long as the Kong family could do it, but with Kong Yingda''s point just now, Kong Desheng still swallowed this sentence with difficulty.


    The master of the Wang family solemnly said, "we want the Kong family to stop transforming primary schools and restore private schools."


    Kong Desheng immediately shrunk his eyes and said, "you want Confucianism to destroy the Great Wall."


    The private school will be transformed into a primary school, so that the Confucian students all over the world can have more ways to make a living, so that Confucianism can popularize every student, and completely realize Kong Sheng''s thought of teaching without discrimination. This is a rare opportunity for Confucianism to go further, and the five hopes and seven surnames in front of us actually want Confucianism to give up.


    "Do you know that Confucianism goes further by following the five Wangs and seven surnames? Once primary schools are popularized in the world, the children of poor families will certainly be 100 times better than the children of our aristocratic family. At that time, not only our five surnames and seven Wangs will be affected, I''m afraid even the Kong family will be affected. Don''t forget that you Kong family is also an aristocratic family!" the master of the Wang family shouted, The only difference is that the power of the Confucius family comes from their ancestors, while the power of the five surnames and seven hopes comes from the court.


    Kong Desheng sneered: "your family can stop the opportunity for the prosperity of Confucianism for its own sake. In my opinion, you have lived in your hometown for a long time, and you can''t see the situation in the world. Now the Tang Dynasty is not what it used to be. A hundred schools of thought contend again. A hundred schools of thought contend like sailing against the current. If you don''t advance, you will retreat. If Confucianism doesn''t go further, the next one to be eliminated is Confucianism."


    The Zheng family leader shook his head and said, "of course, it''s not complacency, but correction. At that time, Confucianism and the five surnames and seven hopes will jointly defeat the Mohist school, and the world will restore the sole respect for Confucianism. Confucianism can still rest easy. The crisis of my family will be solved, and everything will return to the same. This will be a win-win for you and me."


    "Win win!" Kong Desheng hesitated for a moment. He didn''t want to return to the era of respecting Confucianism alone. Although his promotion of primary school can make Confucianism further, it also allows Mohism to rise. Therefore, he didn''t hesitate to mix sand to pull in other hundred schools and dilute the share of Mohism to the lowest.


    If he could return to the era of Confucianism, he would certainly do anything. After all, no one wants to have a sword hanging over his head.


    "I''m afraid the five surnames and seven hopes also promised the Mohist school!" suddenly Kong Yingda said, shocking the four people like a thunder.


    Kong Desheng was suddenly surprised. If the five surnames and seven hopes promised Mohism and tried their best to revive Mohism, I''m afraid Mohism will expand rapidly in a short time and even surpass Confucianism at one stroke.


    "And if it''s not unexpected, Mohist Zi must have refused you," Kong Yingda said again, shocked the four seats.


    The heads of all aristocratic families immediately twinkled in their eyes, and Kong Desheng immediately showed a trace of shock on his face. Compared with the still dominant Confucianism, they are not worried about the threat of Mohism, but the newly revived Mohism rejected the five surnamed Qiwang aristocratic family and gave up the opportunity to surpass Confucianism. This is incredible.


    Kong Desheng sneered, "this is your happiness, sharing weal and woe?"


    He saw with his own eyes the fact that many old friends came to the ink technology exhibition, but he didn''t believe that they were just watching the excitement in the past.


    The master of Wang''s family was embarrassed and said, "we and Mohism are just giving in to each other. Once we get the Mohist technology, who will manage the revival of Mohism, but our cooperation with Confucianism is sincere. As long as we cooperate with each other, we will certainly strive to protect the exclusive position of Confucianism."


    However, Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "I''m afraid Confucianism can''t agree this time."


    The heads of all aristocratic families were shocked again. They couldn''t believe that they were rejected by both Confucianism and Mohism in one day. Everyone knows that Confucianism and Mohism are rivals for thousands of years, but they refused to cooperate with them to defeat each other at the same time.


    "Today''s ink art exhibition! I believe you have seen it with your own eyes. Mohism''s ink technology is unstoppable. Over time, Mohism will certainly develop and become a major trouble for Confucianism." the master of the Wang family frowned.


    Kong Yingda nodded: "Yes, the development of Mohism is indeed very fast. You are also at the scene. You have also seen the strength of Mohism''s ink technology. You think that with brick roads, people are willing to take muddy dirt roads. With tricycles and bicycles, people are still willing to pull heavy scooters? As long as Mohism''s ink technology is pursued by the people, the revival of Mohism can''t be stopped."


    Many aristocratic family leaders were silent. They not only thought of the cement road in the ink house, but I''m afraid that once the road came out, the people would not take the brick road again.


    "One mountain can''t accommodate two tigers. The Tang Dynasty can only accommodate one school. If Confucianism and Mohism compete, one school will fall. If Confucianism falls in the future, you will all be sinners of Confucianism. I hope you don''t regret it." the leader of the Wang family bewitched.


    "As long as the world needs craftsmen, Mohism will never fall. As long as Confucianism controls the scholars and Mohism occupies the industrial world, although the ideas of Confucianism and Mohism are different, they can not coexist," Kong Yingda said in a deep voice.


    It all depends on Merton''s repeated advocacy that the Mohists specialize in ink technology and give up political ideas, so that the Confucianists can get rid of their guard a little. Of course, the Mohist village has always kept its promise. The Mohist village has studied ink technology and built bridges in Xiangfu''s line. The dengling''s line has become the most miserable Street juggling. Now it has disappeared. The Mohists have no intention to get involved in the yishilin, the main source of Confucianism.


    "Coexistence! I''m afraid this is the funniest joke I''ve ever heard in my life." all the aristocratic family leaders laughed.


    "The hundred schools'' dispute is a dispute of ideas, but also a dispute of gentlemen. It has never been said that other means have been used to win. Let''s not say whether we can win. Even if we win by chance, we can only win for a moment and a lifetime. Confucianism has flourished for thousands of years. If we lose so easily, it will be a great joke." Kong Yingda said proudly.


    "Well, in that case, I hope the Confucianists don''t regret it." Wang''s master angrily said.


    The family owners got up angrily and turned over the friendship boat with Kong Desheng for many years.


    Looking at the departure of a group of old friends who had just turned their faces, Kong Desheng did not feel too sad, but rather regretted: "what a good opportunity! What a pity."


    At present, there is such a good opportunity to defeat the Mohists, but they gave up on their own initiative.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "the Mozi family can still refuse the five hopes and seven surnames. Haven''t we and other Confucians had the courage to refuse them? From my nephew''s point of view, this is not an opportunity, but a trap."


    "Trap?" Kong Desheng frowned. "You mean this is the set of Confucianism by the combination of Wuxing Qiwang and Mohist Zi."


    Kong Yingda sneered: "no, it''s true that Mohist refused them. The world says that Mohist is a catfish. However, looking at Mohist''s behavior, there is a bottom line. Mohist''s concept is to love and not attack. Mohist''s behavior has always taken care of the interests of the people at the bottom, while aristocratic family''s behavior is extremely selfish. It''s only for one''s own strength. Mohist and five surnames and seven hopes can''t cooperate at all."


    Kong Desheng nodded slowly. Although they are enemies of Mohism for thousands of years, they still admire Mohist ideas and Mohist people.


    Kong Yingda then said: "If we take advantage of the fire and unite with other aristocratic families to suppress the Mohist school, it will not push the Mohist school to the five surnames and seven hopes. If the Mohist school accepts the agreement of the five hopes and seven surnames, the Mohist school will expand rapidly and the Confucianism will suffer the consequences. Let alone defeat the Mohist school by this despicable means, it will humiliate the name of Kong Sheng. We can use other means, but we can only use them You should never touch anything that insults Kong Sheng''s name. "


    Kong Desheng nodded slowly. The Kong family has been in an invincible position for thousands of years. It depends on the reputation of Kong Sheng. Only if the reputation of the Kong family does not fall down, it will be in an invincible position.


    "The forces of Wuwang and Qixing are terrible. Today we hate them. I''m afraid it''s even more difficult for the Kong family to transform private schools and promote primary schools." Kong Desheng regretted.


    "It''s a big deal that we learn Mohism, build our own school, and follow the style of Confucius Saint traveling around the world to teach 3000 disciples, which will certainly make the reputation of the Confucius family a higher level." Kong Yingda Zhizhu said.


    Even if the transformation of the primary school cannot be completed in his hands, there is Kong huisuo, a better younger generation of the Kong family. After Kong huisuo''s compilation is completed, his future career will surely surpass him and become a new leader of Confucianism.

 Chapter 965

    "It''s unreasonable."


    The leaders of the five surnamed Qiwang aristocratic family who were rejected again were simply angry that one Buddha came out of the body and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. No one of the seven people who have always been high had the courage to refuse them, but today they were rejected twice in a day.


    "Since the Kong family doesn''t appreciate it, don''t blame us for not giving Kong Shengzi face!" the master of the Wang family said ruthlessly.


    The master of the Zheng family shook his head and said, "the Kong family is very sensitive. Brother Wang can''t act rashly."


    Although their aristocratic family only takes Confucianism as a tool to control the government, the Confucius family is the spiritual symbol of the whole Confucianism. Once the Confucius family is moved, they may not be able to hold it.


    Leng hum, the master of the Wang family, said, "I naturally know, but the Kong family wants to transform the private school into a primary school to increase the prestige of the Kong family. It depends on whether our family agrees or not."


    "You mean..." Zheng''s master suddenly said.


    Lord Wang nodded and said, "once the private school is transformed into a primary school, the poor children will certainly have an impact on the children of the aristocratic family. I think no aristocratic family in the world wants to see such a situation. As long as we give a little guidance, the aristocratic family in the world will take the initiative to block the private school in their county."


    "Brother Wang''s strategy is brilliant. All the masters are immersed in studying the four books and five classics. However, the primary school still has to learn the theories of hundreds of schools. Certainly, countless masters will be dissatisfied. Coupled with the influence of the aristocratic family, the transformation of the primary school will become a joke. At that time, naturally, someone in the court will come forward to settle the matter for us." the master of the Zheng family nodded, Five surnames and seven hopes have great influence in the court. As long as there are a series of problems in the transformation of primary schools, countless people will attack. Before long, they can wipe out this policy.


    "What about Mohism?" asked the master of the Lu family in Fanyang.


    Leng hum, the leader of the Wang family, said, "we are not so polite to the Mohist family. Send a letter to the world aristocratic family. If anyone dares to cooperate with the Mohist family again, he will be the enemy of my five surnames and seven hopes."


    "Yes, make an example of the monkey. Take the chicken of the Mohist family to make an example of the monkey of the Confucius family." Zheng''s master echoed.


    Cui''s master nodded and said, "it''s easy for the Mohists and the Kongs. What about the second push?"


    Suddenly, all the aristocratic family leaders were quiet. If the Mohist family is a chicken, the Kong family is a monkey, and Li Shimin is a tiger, and a tiger that can eat people.


    "This should be done by brother Li! Li Tang comes from your Longxi Li family. According to the seniority, Li Shimin should also call you uncle. I''m afraid it''s most appropriate for you to come forward?" Wang''s master looked at the silent Longxi Li''s master.


    The leader of the Li family in Longxi shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "although I am the leader of the Li family in Longxi, Li Yuan is only a branch of the Li family in Longxi. My words can play a role. Don''t forget that Li Er is the emperor who killed his brother and imprisoned his father. It can be seen that he doesn''t agree with the legal eldest son inheritance system. If I go, I''m afraid I''ll just humiliate myself!"


    When the leader of the Li family in Longxi finished, everyone was silent. Whether it was Li Er''s origin or as an emperor, I''m afraid he didn''t want to see the strong five hopes and seven surnames exist.


    The crowd could not help sighing. Their five hopes and seven surnames had never been so decadent as today. At ordinary times, they ran into a wall one after another today.


    "Da Da!"


    Suddenly, a hurried sound of a horse''s hoof came. A servant hurried to Longxi Li''s master, flew off the horse and whispered to report. Longxi Li''s master was stunned and exclaimed, "seriously!"


    The servant nodded solemnly.


    "Brother Li, but what great event has happened!" the master of the Wang family asked.


    The owner of the Li family in Longxi forced out two tears and said sadly, "the emperor has died!"


    "The supreme emperor has died!" the people were stunned, and then they were ecstatic. Didn''t Li Yuan''s death mean that Li Shimin should be filial piety for at least three years in name. If he launched two Tuen in these three years, he would certainly attack the courtiers as unfilial.


    "We have only three years to wait. If we can convince the Mohists and the Kongs in these three years, we will have the capital to negotiate with Li Shimin. Otherwise, you will have your destiny!" the leader of the Li family in Longxi has tears on his face, but there is no sadness.


    "The sky is endless, my five surnames and seven looks!" the Zheng family leader laughed loudly. However, the seven are Li Yuan''s old friends, including Li Yuan''s cousins. They should have been sad about Li Yuan''s death, but now they laughed loudly to celebrate their short-term rebirth.


    "The emperor died!"


    When the messenger in the palace arrived at the Mo mansion, Princess Changle was struck by lightning.


    "Grandpa Huang!" Princess Changle burst into tears.


    Although the relationship between Li Yuan and Li Shimin is very rigid, they love Princess Changle very much, and Princess Changle also often goes to Da''an palace to accompany Li Yuan and filial piety instead of Li Shimin. The relationship between their parents and grandchildren is very harmonious.


    "Don''t be sad for Changle. The emperor has been paralyzed in bed after a stroke for several months. At the moment, his death is no longer painful," Morton comforted.


    According to the historical process, Li Yuan should have died last year. However, because of Merton, the doctor Daxing extended Li Yuan''s life for half a year, which is a fluke.


    Princess Changle still shed tears. Although she was prepared for Li Yuan''s death, how could she not be devastated when she heard that her close relatives had left the world.


    Merton could not help but rejoice. Fortunately, he did not hesitate to develop penicillin to cure the disease of empress changsun. Otherwise, Princess Changle would have experienced the death of her close relatives twice in a row. I''m afraid no matter how strong she is, she can''t afford such a blow.


    "No, I''m going to give grandpa Huang a ride." Princess Changle struggled and wanted to go out.


    "The royal highness of the princess must not be allowed. When the servant came, his majesty and the empress goddess had already ordered that the royal highness of the princess should be residing at home without moving the fetal gas." the eunuch who came to the letter quickly stopped the way.


    "But..." Princess Changle stroked her bulging belly.


    Merton comforted: "I can go to be my husband. I will certainly be filial for my wife."


    Merton comforted her again and again. Then he comforted Princess Changle, stretched out his hand, called Wu Meiniang to her side and said, "Meiniang, you are with Shiniang these days. Don''t make her too sad."


    "Don''t worry, master!" Wu Meiniang answered repeatedly and came forward to help Princess Changle.


    Merton got up at ease and followed the messenger all the way to the palace.


    Merton went all the way to Da''an palace. Da''an palace has become a huge mourning hall. Almost all royal relatives have arrived. The leader of the Li family in Longxi, who has just been in the Mo house, is also at the forefront, with a broken heart.


    "Your Majesty, the queen, I''m sorry!" Murton bowed.


    "How''s Changle?" empress changsun''s eyes were red. It was obvious that she had cried just now. Seeing Merton''s arrival, she asked aloud.


    "Back to the queen, Changle was very sad to hear that the supreme emperor had died. The minister had let the bad disciples accompany him." Merton replied.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and burst into tears when she saw Li Yuan''s holy place in the mourning hall.


    "The Queen''s health has just improved. I hope the queen won''t be sad and focus on her health." Merton was devastated when he saw that the eldest grandson queen had just improved, so he couldn''t help comforting him.


    "I''m my daughter-in-law. How can I be absent at the moment? Merton can rest assured that the body of the palace is clear and can hold." empress Chang sun couldn''t help showing a trace of softness when she looked at Merton. If the Mohists and doctors hadn''t jointly developed Qinglong real medicine, otherwise, she would not be able to hold out.


    She is lucky, but Li Yuan is not so lucky. Qinglong real medicine has no great use for stroke. Even if doctors have used the highest medicine and injected Qinglong real medicine directly into Li Yuan''s blood vessels, it only delayed Li Yuan''s life for two days.


    At the head of the mourning hall, the leader of the Li family in Longxi frowned when he saw Merton talking with the empress Chang sun for so long.


    As the chief steward of Li Yuan''s funeral, the leader of the Li family in Longxi led the officials and the royal family to kneel and worship Li Yuan''s mourning hall for three times and nine times. Then he picked up a decree and said in a loud voice, "the supreme emperor had a legacy for a long time. After a hundred years, he was buried in the mausoleum with empress Tai mu


    Morton''s heart moved. Empress Tai Mu Dou Shi was Li Yuan''s hairy wife. She gave birth to four sons and a daughter in her life. They said Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Yuanba, Li Yuanji and Princess Pingyang. However, after the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin was the only child born to Dou Shi Shi Shi.


    When Dou was alive, Li Yuan never took a concubine. Since Dou''s death, Li Yuan has completely released himself, attracted beautiful women, indulged in debauchery, and gave birth to many younger brothers and sisters to Li Shimin one after another.


    Li Shimin said in a deep voice, "my father has treated me like a mountain. I have decided to be filial to my father for three years."


    "Your Majesty, think twice!"


    "The country cannot be without a king for a day. Although your majesty has lost his close relatives, please consider it for all the people in the world and take it away."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The ministers were shocked at the speech and advised them one after another. While praising Li Shimin''s filial piety, they tried to prevent Li Shimin from being filial.


    "The imperial brother still needs to govern the world. If not, let his younger brother keep filial piety for three years instead of the imperial brother." suddenly a young royal family got up and bowed their hands.


    "It''s your Highness the king of Han!"


    "Your Highness the king of Han is really a man of pure filial piety."


    When the officials saw that the king of Han was so knowledgeable, they praised him one after another. Almost for a moment, the king of Han became a big filial son praised by everyone.


    "Li Yuanchang, king of the Han Dynasty!" Merton could not help shrinking his eyes. He had a deep memory of this rare king in history. He was not an easy man.


    "Then thank you, brother Huang!" Li Shimin followed the good example.


    "Tell your majesty, we still need to determine the specifications of the mausoleum offered by the supreme emperor, and please appoint it!" the leader of the Li family in Longxi asked. The Xianling mausoleum was originally the mausoleum of empress Tai mu. Now Li Yuan is buried with her. The natural specification is even better.


    Li Shimin pondered for a moment. Li Yuan was the founding emperor and naturally wanted to enjoy the qualification of the founding emperor. The emperor originated from the first emperor of Qin, but the mausoleum of the first emperor of Qin was too large. If the scale of the mausoleum of the first emperor of Qin was adopted, I''m afraid it would immediately bring down the whole Tang Dynasty. Although the specifications of the Changling Tomb of Liu Bang were extraordinary, Li Shimin thought that Liu Bang was of humble origin, which was comparable to the dignitaries of the Li family, The only suitable one is probably the original Mausoleum of Liu Xiu, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty.


    "Then build the mausoleum according to the specifications of the original Mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty." Li Shimin said solemnly.


    The ministers could not help nodding. Li Shimin''s choice was very appropriate, which could be said to be the most suitable for Li Yuan. Moreover, the original Mausoleum of Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, was buried with his Empress Yin Lihua.


    "Another thing is the construction of the mausoleum. Please summon skilled craftsmen from all over the world to ensure that the emperor''s mausoleum is safe!" the leader of the Li family in Longxi bowed.


    There was a sudden silence among the officials. Since ancient times, the tombs of the past dynasties hated the tomb robbers most, especially the royal tombs. Their funerals were of great value and were the holy land of the tomb robbers of the past dynasties.


    "I''ve heard that the public loser is good at making silver treasuries. The silver Treasuries have many mechanisms and are extremely safe. It''s safe for the public loser to supervise the construction of the Xianling mausoleum," Wei Zheng said.


    "Lord Wei doesn''t know. Although the public loser has extraordinary skills, the silver warehouse is infallible. It also needs the steel and cement produced by the Mohist school as raw materials. It''s difficult to hurt the knife and axe before it can be infallible." Lang Sheng, the leader of the Li family in Longxi, said.


    For a moment, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "it''s not that the boy is unwilling to be filial to the emperor, but that the service life of reinforced concrete is only a hundred years. After a hundred years, it will become fragile. I''m afraid it''s far from being as strong and durable as bluestone. Weichen can''t dare to affect the emperor''s years underground."


    "A hundred years!" Li Shimin said with regret.


    He personally experienced the hardness of reinforced concrete. Although a bridge for a hundred years is enough, it is far from enough for a long buried tomb.


    "Then use the technology built by emperors of previous dynasties and choose an auspicious day to arrange the burial of the supreme emperor." Li Shimin said solemnly.


    "Yes!" said the leader of the Li family in Longxi respectfully.


    Although Li Yuan had abdicated, all the specifications were in accordance with the emperor''s etiquette. Merton went back tired after cumbersome etiquette.


    After all the officials had left, there was a sudden silence in the Da''an palace.


    "Your Majesty, have a rest!" empress Chang sun came forward to comfort her.


    "You all go down! I want to stay with my father for a while!" Li Shimin said in a low voice.


    Empress Chang sun couldn''t help sighing. How could she not know the gratitude and resentment between the father and son? Now, with Li Yuan''s death, it''s time to resolve the gratitude and resentment.


    With a wave of his hand, the eldest sun Huang left the hall one after another, leaving Li Yuan and Li Shimin alone.


    Li Shimin sat in front of Li Yuan with his eyes closed. He saw his hero close his eyes and would never wake up again. Silent tears couldn''t help crying.


    When he was young, Li Shimin thought that his father was the greatest man in the world. He was proud of his father all his life. At that time, his mother was still alive, his brothers were harmonious, and his gentle little sister smiled. This warmth was unique among the aristocratic families.


    However, with the death of his mother, his father accepted beautiful women, and there was more and more estrangement between him and his father. As Li Yuan set up the army, he and his eldest brother fought for merit, and there was a deep rift in the brotherhood, but his sister Li Xiuning worked hard to maintain this family relationship.


    However, with the sudden death of Princess Pingyang Zhao, the family affection that everyone admired was suddenly fragmented. During the change of Xuanwu Gate, he personally killed Li Jiancheng and saw incredible eyes in his eyes. When he came to the Tai Chi hall, he couldn''t look directly at his father''s disappointed eyes. A family admired by everyone in the world has become the most tragic family in the world. I''m afraid no one can predict such an outcome.


    "I lost my mother, my sister and my brother, and now I have lost my father," Li Shimin closed his eyes but burst into tears. From today on, he has finally become a lonely family.

 Chapter 966

    The scale of the mausoleum was very large. According to the original plan, the mausoleum was to be completed within five months. However, with the blessing of Mohist machinery, the mausoleum was completed in less than two months.


    With the completion of the construction of the Xianling mausoleum, the Taishi ordered Li Chunfeng to choose an auspicious day. Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, officially entered the land for peace, and a generation of outstanding people officially ended. His posthumous title was Emperor Taiwu and his temple name was Gaozu, which was called Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty in history.


    Life, old age, illness and death are the norm in the world. Even if you are an emperor, you will inevitably die. After Li Yuan was buried, with the dilution of time, the sadness in his heart gradually subsided. After all, people still have to live in the present.


    Merton looked at the growing belly of Princess Changle, and a trace of happiness could not help but emerge in his heart. The world is fair, and some lives disappear and new lives are born.


    "This is the tallest building in Chang''an." Princess Changle looked sweetly at the women''s and children''s building in front of her. Although she didn''t care about these foreign objects, this building was built by Merton for her production, and its meaning was naturally different.


    Merton looked at the modern buildings in front of him. A trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes. Whenever an object of future generations appeared, it made him reduce his miss for future generations.


    In addition to Merton and Princess Changle, pregnant women who came and went for inspection pointed out the magnificent building. It can even be said that each higher floor of the building will attract a group of citizens to marvel.


    As for the doctors of many women''s and children''s hospitals, they are proud. Everyone knows that this building is to be delivered to them for use. Ask who can have this treatment in the world. Perhaps only the temple towers of Taoism and Buddhism can surpass in height, but this is the birthplace of life, which is more sacred than those ethereal Taoism and Buddhism.


    "Return to the young master, the building has been completed, and please accept it." Zhang Yang, a son of the Mohists, said proudly. After supervising the construction of the women''s and children''s building, Zhang Yang became the most famous craftsman in Chang''an city. Even historians came to specially write down his name and solemnly record it in the history book.


    "It''s just that President Zhang is also visiting. It''s just that today the Mohist family will make a handover with the women''s and children''s hospital." Merton stretched out his hand and invited him.


    Zhang was overjoyed and said, "that''s my honor?"


    Owning such a high-rise building is conceivable for the benefits of the women''s and children''s hospital. You know, even the most famous doctor Mo hospital does not have this treatment. They have not entrusted the blessing of Princess Changle.


    "Please, madam!" Merton reached out and invited.


    Princess Changle asked: "I don''t need my concubine! It''s inconvenient for my concubine on the second floor of the house, not to mention up to five floors at once."


    She is now pregnant, and her daily actions are extremely difficult. She doesn''t think she has the ability to climb the fifth floor.


    The publicity on one side hurriedly said, "don''t worry, Mrs. Shao. The Mojia elevator has been installed for pregnant women who are unwell. Mrs. Shao can easily climb five floors without climbing a step."


    Princess Changle looked at Merton, who nodded slowly. Only then did Changle follow the crowd into the building of the women''s and children''s hospital.


    When I entered the building, I found how magnificent the outside of the building is, and the inside is quite atmospheric. Ordinary houses are only two feet in diameter, and the reception hall of the building of the women''s and children''s hospital is so large,


    All the ceramic tiles in the reception hall are as smooth as a mirror. Looking at the whole Tang Dynasty, in addition to the marriage room of mojiazi and Princess Changle, there is no other women''s and children''s hospital. It seems that what Merton said is true. He really treats the pregnant women as princesses.


    Zhang Yang pointed to the left side of the reception hall and said, "this can be used as a doctor''s consulting room. It is inconvenient for pregnant women to go upstairs. Only the first floor is the most convenient."


    Zhang Shi nodded, looked at the airtight room on the right, frowned and said, "where is this?"


    Zhang Yang explained: "this is the room where pregnant women give birth. The Mohists have specially made sound insulation equipment. Even if there is a big sound inside, it can''t be transmitted outside."


    The Mohist School developed public address equipment. Naturally, they also studied sound insulation, which was just applied in the delivery room.


    President Zhang was quite surprised. The women''s and children''s hospital has been open for so long, and they have delivered thousands of pregnant women. They found that the biggest problem is that the pregnant women have great pain during childbirth, and they can''t help crying out.


    Even if they have chosen the most remote place for pregnant women to give birth, it can still spread far and far. In this way, more pregnant women will be extremely nervous, which is not conducive to the work of doctors.


    With these sound insulation equipment, there are only two kinds of pregnant women in the ward, one is waiting for delivery, and the other is pregnant women with children after postpartum recovery, which greatly reduces the pressure of doctors.


    "The first floor is the delivery room and consulting room, and the second floor to the fifth floor are the maternity ward. In order to solve the dilemma of inconvenient walking for pregnant women, Mohist school has built two kinds of stairs at the same time. One is a step ladder for normal people to go up and down, and the other is a unique lift ladder of Mohist School for doctors and pregnant women to use." Zhang Yang introduced.


    Under the guidance of Zhang Yang, the people came to a snow-white metal door. Zhang Yang stretched out his hand and remembered with a bell that the metal door opened slowly.


    The elevator in Mojia village is still very simple, almost like a cage. In order to take care of the mood of pregnant women, Merton specially explained the structure of the elevator in future generations, which led to this fully closed elevator.


    Rao was so. With the elevator rising slowly, Princess Changle felt her feet vacated. She couldn''t help a burst of panic and grabbed Merton''s clothes tightly.


    Merton comforted: "master, don''t worry. This elevator is driven by manpower, and the Mohist school has set up two insurances. Even if the iron rope is broken, the elevator won''t fall."


    As the elevator slowly stopped, the metal door slowly opened, and the people stepped on the flat ceramic tile, they were slightly relieved.


    Princess Changle found that they didn''t take a step and went directly to the second floor. This elevator is a good news for pregnant women. It''s just made for pregnant women.


    "The second floor is a building dedicated to receiving pregnant women. The location of the middle reception hall has been transformed into the consulting room of the doctor on duty. On the right is a single room for noble people, and on the left is a double room, which has a great space."


    Although Zhang Yang didn''t say it clearly, everyone knows that the so-called preparation for noble people is actually prepared for Princess Changle.


    "There are three people on the third floor, four people on the fourth floor and five floors," Zhang Yang said.


    Zhang nodded and said, "it can meet different needs. Mohism is really dedicated!"


    She just presided over the maternal and child hospital, but she was used to seeing all kinds of mothers and families. The Mohist design just solved this problem. Rich people can naturally live in single and double rooms. If they don''t want to spend money, they can live in three and four rooms. Moreover, the cost of four rooms is obviously the cheapest, which can be borne by even an ordinary family.


    "If all the beds are counted, it can accommodate more than 300 pregnant women. I believe it must be at the disposal of president Zhang." Zhang Yang said.


    "I wonder if Dean Zhang is satisfied!" Merton looked at Zhang with a smile.


    Thank you, Mo Hou! Thank you for your royal highness!


    It can accommodate more than 300 pregnant women at a time. On average, each pregnant woman lives in the ward for seven days. Thousands of pregnant women can be saved in a month. Tens of thousands of lives will be born here in a year. It will certainly become a sacred place for gynecology.


    "The original delivery room doesn''t have to be demolished. It can be used as a ward for children. After all, the purpose of the women''s and children''s hospital is not only to give birth safely, but also to let the baby grow up healthily." Merton looked at the bulged abdomen of Princess Changle.


    Zhang smiled brightly and said, "that''s natural, but I have to be brave enough to ask for a medicine from mohou."


    "Medicine? Is it really Qinglong medicine!" Merton could guess without Zhang Shiming saying.


    Zhang solemnly nodded and said, "it is not a difficult problem to let children be born safely. However, babies are more vulnerable to diseases, especially pneumonia, which is often a near death. If there is Qinglong real medicine, countless lives will be saved."


    Merton nodded and said, "I''ll ask Mo Wu to prepare a dose suitable for infants and be responsible for supplying maternal and child hospitals."


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" Zhang said solemnly.


    Before they knew it, they had come to the fifth floor on the top floor. Looking down through the transparent glass, they saw that the whole Chang''an City Square was close in front of them, and each square was neat like a chessboard.


    Zhang suddenly said, "this is the holy land of doctors in my heart!"


    Having the highest building and the most advanced magic medicine is the most perfect doctor in her heart. Of course, the greatest credit should be attributed to Mohism. What Zhang doesn''t know is that an unprecedented crisis is attacking Mohism.

 Chapter 967

    Princess Changle was pregnant. After going to the women''s and children''s building, she felt tired. After returning to the Mo house, she went back to her room to have a rest.


    But when Merton returned to the hall, he saw that Xu Jie had already been waiting for him.


    "How''s it going?" Merton said with a tired face.


    "Very bad!" Xu Jie said with a heavy face. "Five surnames and seven hopes have begun to work. Now half of the merchants no longer cooperate with Mojia village. However, all vehicles transporting goods from Mojia village have been subject to the strictest inventory. Most of them pick bones in eggs. If there is anything wrong, they will be detained. Even the management is useless."


    "Public tools for private use! These aristocratic families are really moths!" Morton said angrily.


    He had long expected that Qiwang, the five surnames, would be a black hand. At the beginning of rejecting them, Merton had already begun to order that all counties and counties with the five surnames and Qiwang would give up. Where there are children of Qiwang family with the five surnames as the chief officer, they should look for agents, and other places should be more careful.


    However, he still underestimated the influence of Wuwang and Qiwang. Wuwang and Qiwang had just made a move, and the whole Mojia village had suffered heavy losses, almost instantly losing the market north of the Yellow River,


    Merton took a deep breath in his airway: "recall the Mohist children outside first, and the whole Mohist village shrinks. At present, stabilize your feet first."


    "Yes!" Xu Jie said solemnly. Now the most important thing is to minimize the loss of Mojia village and preserve its strength before it can survive the struggle with five surnames and seven hopes.


    The most sensitive people in Chang''an city are businessmen. They are affected by the slightest disturbance. The news of the joint crackdown on Mojia village by five surnames and seven hopes immediately spread all over Chang''an City and became the most popular topic in Chang''an city.


    "That''s five surnames and seven outlooks!" a merchant sighed. When he mentioned five surnames and seven outlooks, he had a feeling of towering mountains. In the Tang Dynasty, five surnames and seven outlooks were the most prominent aristocratic family. When he married, he should take five surnames and women, which became the supreme honor of all officials.


    Because once you go to the daughter of the aristocratic family with the five surnames Qiwang, you not only know how to be reasonable and look good, but also can integrate into the marriage circle compiled by the five surnames Qiwang for thousands of years. You will find that your Shangguan is the classmate of the brother of your wife''s third uncle. Since then, the pipeline is unblocked. This is the power of the aristocratic family.


    "This time, Mojia village is dangerous!"


    Almost everyone silently sentenced the Mojia village to death. In the Tang Dynasty, if you offend the emperor, you may be able to escape. However, if you offend the five surnames and seven hopes at the same time, you are definitely dead.


    "Why is the Mo family so unwise that they offend all the five surnames and seven hopes." a silk merchant frowned.


    "You don''t know that! The aristocratic family leaders with the five surnames Qiwang collectively came to the door to buy ink skills, but the Mohist family son pointed to the nose of the aristocratic family leaders with the five surnames Qiwang and scolded them as moths, hamsters and blood sucking gadflies!" an idle man suddenly came forward and whispered.


    "Hiss!" suddenly everyone took a breath. How proud it is to look at the seven surnames. How can anyone point to the nose and scold? This time, the Mohist son was not wronged at all.


    Of course, this is also the rumor released by the five surnames and seven hopes. Even the five surnames and seven hopes can''t get out of obscurity to deal with the famous Mohist family. They only lose a little reputation, but compared with the benefits brought by subduing the Mohist family, it''s nothing at all. This is a family that is profit oriented and unscrupulous.


    "Well scolded!"


    Of course, some people secretly applauded. For thousands of years, no one has been aware of the harm of the aristocratic family. It can even be said that the aristocratic family has committed many tragedies. However, the aristocratic family firmly controls the regime in the imperial court and stands at the top of the Tang Dynasty, and others dare to be angry.


    "This time the Mojia village is over!"


    No matter those who agree with or ridicule Mozi, they can''t help thinking secretly.


    "Do you really point to the five family names and seven looks and scold them for moths?" Fang Yiai hurried to the Mo mansion and looked at Merton with an incredible face.


    "Isn''t it?" asked Merton.


    Fang Yiai said helplessly, "do you know that the owner of Fan Yang Lu''s family is my grandfather!"


    "Now I know!" Merton nodded.


    Fang Yiai shook her head and said, "originally, my father wanted to beg for mercy for you. Now I''m afraid it can''t be said."


    Fang Xuanling is the first of all officials. If he comes forward to preside over justice, Wuwang and Qixing will not attack the Mo family so openly. However, this involves Fang Xuanling''s father-in-law. If he helps Merton, I''m afraid he will be gossip.


    "No! The Mohist school will not give in to anyone if soldiers come to block the water and cover the earth." Merton firmly said:


    Fang Yiai sighed, "hold on first. After a while, I''ll plead with grandpa!"


    Merton sent Fang''s love away, but he understood that there were many interests involved in the struggle, and how could it be controlled by a little family affection. Let alone Fang Yiai, even Lu''s personal appearance is of no use.


    Sure enough, the next bad news came one after another. The Longhai line, which was most valued by the Mohists, suffered heavy losses. The Zheng family in Xingyang was entrenched in the center of the Longhai line. However, the vehicles transporting Mohist goods were made difficult by many difficulties. If they were wrong, they would seize the goods of Mohist village. Soon, the Eastern market of Mohist village fell.


    Longxi is the territory of the Li family. Lanzhou and Chencang have been occupied one after another. Under the joint sniping of many aristocratic families, the Mojia village has been defeated one after another.


    "So there are only Chang''an and Luoyang markets left in Mojia village!" Merton frowned.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "Chang''an city is not only the foot of the emperor, but also the headquarters of Mojia village. At present, there is no worry. Before Luoyang, the young master and his wife went to Luoyang for their honeymoon, which was deeply welcomed by the people of Luoyang. The two places are preserved for the time being."


    In fact, what Xu Jie said is only one aspect. There is another aspect. Chang''an and Luoyang are the focus of Datang. Chang''an order and Luoyang order are important officials of the court and have the confidence to refuse the five surnames and seven looks. Moreover, if they openly turn to the five surnames and seven looks, what does the court think? At least so far, the two places can maintain justice.


    Rao is so. However, a group of small aristocratic families consciously kept a distance from Mojia village. The original hot goods in Mojia village were suddenly ignored, and Mojia village suffered heavy losses.


    Xu Jie''s heart was bleak. He couldn''t help thinking of the measures taken by the Taiyuan Wang family to deal with Xu''s firm. He originally thought that he would no longer fear the aristocratic family when he developed into a giant like Mojia village. However, when the forces of the aristocratic family united, he found that he was as strong as Mojia village and as wise as Mojia son, but he was also helpless and had no power to fight back.


    "Is this the world of the aristocratic family?" Xu Jie took a deep breath.

 Chapter 968

    Five surnames and seven hopes jointly sniped at Mojia village, which suffered heavy losses and withdrew from a large number of markets. What really cheered was other workshops that imitated the goods of Mojia village.


    For a while, workshops sprung up all over the Tang Dynasty, constantly filling the huge market left by the retreat of Mojia village.


    "No one in the world is irreplaceable, even the Mohist school!" in Xingyang City, Zheng''s master sneered at the many workshops that emerged overnight.


    "My father is wise, expelling Mohism on one hand and taking over the huge market left by Mohism on the other!" standing behind the master of the Zheng family, Zheng Chang, the second son of the Zheng family who came to Beijing with Zheng Chonghua, proudly looked at the booming scene in Xingyang city. Many of them are the property of the Zheng family.


    The master of the Zheng family showed a trace of pride and said, "do you think only the Zheng family is like this? My father believes that the six of them will not miss this opportunity. Even a group of aristocratic families with five surnames and seven hopes are seizing the market from which the Mohist family withdrew one after another. Otherwise, you think they will be so positive about things that have no interests! But none of them has the superior geographical location of my Zheng family."


    Since the brick road was built, Xingyang, located in the center of the Longhai line, has suddenly become a transportation hub and a crossroads between the north and the south. As long as these workshops are completed, they don''t worry about business at all. This time, the five surnamed Qiwang sniped at the Mohist school, only he, the Zheng family in Xingyang, benefited the most.


    "Then why bother? The workshop we built is not the Mohist ink technology, or even the latest Mohist ink technology!" Zheng Chang wondered. With his five surnames and seven hopes, he could not see these ordinary industries. What they valued was the most advanced Mohist ink technology, especially the colorful bicycle in the ink technology exhibition, which made him itch, It is said that there is only one car in the whole Chang''an City, which is used by Qin Huaiyu in turn. Every trip is the focus of attention and the limelight, which makes the dandy Zheng Chang itch.


    The Zheng family leader looked at his beloved son and earnestly taught him: "It''s very learned. Although these workshops also use Mohist technology, they compete with Mohist village for profits. According to the annual report of Mohist village, Mohist spends a lot of money every year to study Mohist technology. Once Mohist village loses its financial resources and wants to develop Mohist technology, we can only ask the outside world for help. Then we can take advantage of the deficiency and get the money and be controlled by others, At that time, even half of the patent fee may not be available to Mohist. On the contrary, if Mohist has a lot of money support, it will firmly grasp the most lucrative ink technology in its hands and throw us only some leftovers. Therefore, if you want to defeat Mohist, you must cut off Mohist''s financial resources. This is the first and most important step. "


    It has to be said that Zheng''s family master''s strategy is extremely vicious. Later generations of scientists often work hard, but because they are shy, they have to succumb to capitalists. There are many examples. Scientists are often poor, while capitalists make a lot of money through scientists'' inventions.


    Zheng Chang suddenly realized it and couldn''t help nodding. At the thought of the picture in front of him, he was a little more excited about the shame of Chang''an.


    Although it is thousands of years away, the move of five hopes and seven surnames also works. It not only makes the Mohist lose the huge market, but also makes the goods in the Mohist village pile up like a mountain. If we can''t think of another way, many Mohist workshops will be shut down. Once the Mohist village loses the momentum of rapid development, I''m afraid its decline will be inevitable.


    "These aristocratic families are hateful. The palace will go to the father emperor and let the father emperor cure them!" it''s impossible to stop the fire. Soon, Princess Changle has heard the rumor that five surnames and seven hopes are encircling and suppressing the Mohist village, and she can''t stop her anger.


    "No!" Merton hurriedly stopped Princess Changle.


    "You''re pregnant now. You still give priority to stillbirth. You don''t have to take care of things outside!" Morton comforted.


    "But Mojia village..." Princess Changle said anxiously, but she learned that the situation in Mojia village was not optimistic.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the emperor has just been buried. The emperor is sad. How can he disturb the emperor because of this little thing? Besides, it''s not difficult for his husband to make money. Nothing will happen in Mojia village!"


    Merton comforted Princess Changle and sent her back to her room.


    Merton rubbed his eyebrows. At present, the most important thing is to sell the goods returned from Mojia village. If there is a large backlog and the payment cannot be collected, there will be a large backlog of funds in Mojia village, which is the most fatal.


    "Jingling!"


    Suddenly, a very familiar voice sounded in later generations. Merton didn''t have to think about it. He also knew that the three car thieves came.


    After a lot of practice, Qin Huaiyu has mastered the skills of riding a bicycle. He drifts beautifully on his bicycle and stops directly outside the living room. Behind him, Cheng Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin look at Qin Huaiyu dissatisfied.


    "How dare you come!" Merton said, gnashing his teeth when he saw three car thieves.


    "Little brother, I came to make amends today!" Qin Huaiyu said with a careful smile. During this period of time, they have been in the limelight and become the brightest children in Zhuque street. They are simply happy.


    "Forget it!" Merton said with a faint interest. Now the Mojia village is troubled, and Merton has no intention to make these strange things again.


    "Brother Mo''s heroic deeds of not fearing the five surnames and seven hopes have been spread all over Chang''an City, which is really a model for our generation." Cheng Chumo thumbed up to Merton. During this period, the Mohist son scolded the seven hope master, which became the most popular problem in Chang''an city. He was even surprised by the dandy world of Chang''an City, and even the limelight of Qin Huaiyu, who was riding a bicycle, After all, as children of aristocratic families, no one knows the horror of five surnames and seven hopes better than them.


    Merton snorted coldly, "I didn''t scold them at all. These old guys revenge for public and private affairs. They are so unruly."


    He could not imagine that these aristocratic families were so reckless and openly used their power to encircle and suppress the Mohist family.


    "So, the three little brothers came here today to solve this matter for brother Mo!" Wei Chi Baolin patted his chest and promised.


    Merton looked at the three in surprise and said, "you?"


    "Each of us wants 3000 yuan of goods from Mojia village!" Wei Chi Baolin patted his chest and said proudly.


    Morton was stunned, shook his head and said, "even if you buy 30000 Guan goods, it''s useless. Do you know the biggest dilemma of Mojia village?"


    "The goods of Mojia village are the best-selling goods in the Tang Dynasty. Now they are in trouble. The biggest problem is that they can''t be transported. However, it''s easy for the three of us. Do those petty officials dare to intercept the motorcade of our government?" Chumo said proudly.


    "Yes, we can also make a lot of money." Qin Huaiyu said with a look of money fans. Everyone knows that as long as we transport the goods from Mojia village, we can certainly make a huge profit.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "the five surnames and seven hopes are too much involved. It''s better not to involve the three princes."


    Wei Chi Baolin said bluntly, "this is our private action. At most, my father knows it and beat me up. Moreover, 3000 Guan goods can earn nearly 1000 Guan, which is enough for medical expenses."


    Qin Huaiyu and Wei Chi Baolin solemnly nodded, with a firm face and a look of being beaten for money.


    Merton was not moved for a while. He knew that the three people could not be because of lack of money. It was just a reason to come to help him.


    "Short of money!" Morton said. Qin Huaiyu and his wife are members of a food city. They can''t make ends meet. I think other dandies will be even more short of money.


    Merton''s eyes turned slightly and his voice whispered: "The power of the five surnames and seven hopes is too large to be carried by the three princes alone. You can send a message to your foxes... Good friends make money together. The goods in Mojia village generally make 30% of the profits. This time I can make 40% of the profits for you! Even the goods can be sold on credit, beaten one by one and earn hundreds of thousands of dollars for them to choose."


    When Merton''s eyes brightened at the 40% profit process, didn''t he have hundreds of more profits, and he could also charge on credit? This is a business without capital. He believes that those evil friends will certainly be moved.


    "Yes! The Dharma is not responsible for the public! Ah! Bah, we have broken the law at any point. We are so many princes and Marquises that we are afraid of the five surnames and seven hopes." Qin Huaiyu patted his thigh.


    If more dandies join in, the risk of this action will certainly be minimized, and there is still a lot of money to make, which is an irresistible temptation for those dandies who will never have enough money to spend.


    So many forces in the imperial court can certainly compete with Wuwang and Qixing. Merton can also take the opportunity to empty the backlog of goods in Mojia village.

 Chapter 969

    "Come on, everyone, have fun! Today my brothers will treat you?" Chumo shouted in a heroic manner in the teaching department workshop.


    "Good! Brother Cheng is really cheerful!" Fang Yiai shouted, and a group of dandies agreed. You know, although they are dandies in Chang''an City, their money is only monthly money, and they don''t have many opportunities to be so extravagant.


    With Chumo''s big hand waving, exquisite dishes, bottles of crystal clear crystal to solve thousands of worries were put on, accompanied by the top song and dance of the education department workshop, which immediately raised the atmosphere in the field.


    "Brother Cheng, have you found another way to get rich?" Li Zhen, the eldest son of England, whispered to Chumo.


    In an instant, the whole audience focused on Qin Huaiyu. What they were most proficient in was eating, drinking and having fun. According to their rough estimation, it would cost at least 30 yuan to buy this banquet alone, which was their regular money in a month.


    "Cough! No, no, it''s not the brothers who offended so much a few days ago. Today, I''m here to make amends to all the brothers!" Qin Huaiyu coughed quickly to stop Chumo.


    A kind of dandy, looking at the two people with poor acting skills, suddenly realized that according to the character of the three, they must have found a way to beat them. They showed off their bicycles before, and all kinds of four-wheel carriages,...... they can still experience each other!


    Li Zhen couldn''t help but put the wine cup in his hand on the table and said unhappily, "brother Qin, it''s not interesting enough! You eat and drink spicy food every day. You can see the pain in our brothers'' hearts! If you have a way to get rich, you must bring your brothers."


    The dandies nodded heavily. Although they were not short of money, they had a large family. The monthly money was very limited. In addition, they were not an official and couldn''t make ends meet. Originally, everyone was not rich, but there were many of them, Qin Huaiyu, who climbed up to the Mexican family and became rich overnight. How can they balance their hearts.


    Qin Huaiyu said, "it''s not that my brother doesn''t take you, but that although it makes money, it''s the most offensive. My brother doesn''t want to pit you."


    "Offend people?" Liu Renshi, the eldest son of Kui, sneered. "Offend people. What our brothers are most afraid of is offending people. There are few people in the Tang Dynasty that we can''t offend."


    Liu Renshi didn''t exaggerate. They ran rampant in Chang''an city. They were always flattered by others. They really didn''t dare to offend them.


    "Of course, you can''t do anything that violates the national law, otherwise my father will really destroy his family." Li Zhenxin said with fear.


    Qin Huaiyu sniffed and said, "that''s nature! How can I harm your brothers? You know the most popular rumors recently."


    "What brother Qin said was that the Mohist school had offended the five surnames and seven hopes." Li Zhen frowned.


    Qin Huaiyu nodded and said, "however! Now the five surnames and seven hopes have joined forces to encircle and suppress Mojia village. Now the goods in the whole Mojia village can''t be transported out. You also know the relationship between the three of us and brother Mo, so you helped brother Mo with a small favor. You charged 3000 yuan of goods on credit and transported them to other places for sale. Brother Mo promised us 40% profit!"


    "40% profit!" a kind of dandy can''t help taking a breath. For 3000 yuan of goods, 40% profit is a full 1200 yuan! But it''s equivalent to their regular money for several years.


    "Five hopes and seven surnames say that if anyone helps the Mohists, they are enemies. Besides, the Mohist village can''t be transported out, you can!" Liu Renshi didn''t believe it.


    Wei Chi Baolin snorted coldly, "do they dare to intercept the motorcade of our government? Even if they know, we have not violated the national law!"


    "Yes, you don''t know. These aristocratic families encircle and suppress the Mojia village on the surface, but secretly build workshops to seize the market and make a lot of money. Can they be allowed to eat fish and meat and drink the West and north wind?" Qin Huaiyu bewitched.


    Yes, one doesn''t steal, two don''t rob, and three don''t break the law. Why can''t you earn this money! Moreover, those aristocratic families with five and seven surnames look arrogant. They have long despised those people.


    "But it''s plain to make enemies. I''m afraid it''s hard for my father to explain. It''s five surnames and seven looks!" Li Zhen frowned.


    This is the strength of the five surnames and seven hopes. Even the dandies who are not afraid of heaven and earth in Chang''an city can''t help but be afraid.


    "So we need to sneak in. It''s just a private act of my younger generation. You can live up to it. You can beat us at most. I believe it''s common for you." Chumo stalls and looks like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.


    Li Zhen can''t help staring at Chumo. No one wants to be beaten.


    "It''s worth thousands of passes in exchange for a meal!" a dandy said.


    "So at this time, we must be quick. We must transport the goods first, do a lot of work first, and earn the money. In Chang''an City, money is the Lord. If we don''t have money, no one will look at you!" Chumo said rudely.


    However, the dandies did not refute. In the gold selling cave in Chang''an City, how can they use the little money in their hands alone!


    "OK, I''ll do it!" Fang Yiai suddenly stood up.


    "You, forget it! Who doesn''t know that your grandfather is the master of Fanyang Lu''s family." Chumo sneered.


    Fang Yiai blushed and said, "although grandpa is close, he didn''t give me money! Besides, my father is a civil servant, and Fang can bear this strength."


    The dandies looked at Fang Yiai''s shameless face and silently gave a thumbs up.


    With Fang Yiai''s leadership, a kind of dandy can''t help but feel excited. For them, it is only blamed by their parents at most. It can be said that it is a business with the least risk and the greatest benefit.


    "OK, let''s do it!" said the dandies one after another.


    These dandies really can''t wait to act. Besides, there is no shortage of housekeepers in charge of merchants in their government. Soon, batches of goods left Mojia village. After leaving Chang''an City, they quietly changed the banner of the government of various countries and sailed to all parts of Datang.


    "This time, brother Fang is wronged!" seeing the carts of goods leave and the warehouse of Mojia village is gradually emptied, Merton breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly thanked Fang''s legacy.


    If Fang Yiai hadn''t taken the lead in person, I''m afraid the dandies wouldn''t be so straightforward this time. After all, it was Fang Yiai''s grandfather who was the owner of the Lu family in Fanyang. Fang Xuanling was better than Lu, and I''m afraid Lu would be sad.


    "Mother!" Fang Yiai immediately trembled in his heart. In the house, what he was most afraid of was not his father Fang Xuanling, but his mother Lu. It can be imagined that Lu could accept Fang Xuanling, but how clever the means were. When he left the house, he couldn''t help lamenting and hoped that his mother would show mercy.


    "What are you afraid of? The Dharma is not responsible for the public! So many people are afraid of five hopes and seven surnames when they act together! But I''m afraid they''ll wrong these brothers. I hope these uncles and uncles don''t do it so hard!" Qin Huaiyu said with a panic.


    "Don''t worry, as long as they have money, they will recover soon." Chumo said with a smile.


    Merton shook his head and said, "then you''re wrong. We may be able to hide our actions from outsiders, but we can''t hide those founding heroes. Without their acquiescence, do you think you can mobilize so many servants?"


    Qin Huaiyu couldn''t help but be stunned. When he thought about it carefully, he couldn''t help sweating. I''m afraid he really couldn''t hide it from his father in the name of the government. Now his action is obviously tacitly approved by his father.


    However, the Qin family and the Mohist family have made friends. They may have feelings for helping the Mohist family. However, other governments do not have much intersection with the Mohist family. How are they willing to take risks to help the Mohist family.


    Merton looked at the motorcade disappearing at the end of the brick road and couldn''t help laughing. Where there were people, there was the Jianghu. The old aristocratic family represented by Wuwang and Qixing had shared the most abundant benefits for thousands of years. However, those founding heroes who got up rashly represented the new aristocratic family. They occupied the highest power in the court, However, they do not enjoy the interests equivalent to their status. Perhaps these new interest groups do not want to challenge the old interest groups.


    The disputes between these old and new aristocratic families may be the breakthrough point of Mohist''s breaking the situation. Once these new rich families connive at these dandies to sell Mohist goods on a commission basis, the encirclement and suppression of five surnames and seven hopes will leak into a sieve and become a joke.

 Chapter 970

    Xingyang!


    With the construction of brick roads, the commercial roads in Xingyang are unblocked, which can be described as extremely prosperous. It has even become an important business place on the Longhai line, second only to Chang''an Luoyang.


    Although Wuwang and Qixing besieged the Mohists and lost the largest source of goods, making this important business area a little less prosperous, there are still constant caravan exchanges.


    A long transport convoy attracted the idea of Xingyang Yamen. Each carriage of the convoy was pulled by four horses and moved slowly. It was obviously full of goods. More importantly, their direction was Luoyang.


    "Constable, the top has already said hello. You must pay attention to the large caravan from the West!" a servant whispered.


    "Hmm!" an officer dressed as a constable nodded. Naturally, they knew that the task of this trip was to intercept the goods of Mojia village, and they got up one after another.


    "Stop and accept the inspection!" the constable came forward and said in a vicious voice. The Zheng family had made it clear that as long as the motorcade carrying the goods of Mojia village was stopped, even if they lost their official duties, the Zheng family would keep them.


    On one side is the Mojia village thousands of miles away, and on the other is the Zheng family, the supreme emperor of Xingyang. These constables naturally know how to choose.


    "Pa!"


    With a violent whiplash, the whiplash almost hit the constable''s face. Fortunately, the constable was agile and dodged dangerously.


    "Blind your dog eyes, dare to intercept the British public motorcade!" a cold cry immediately left the angry Constable there.


    "Duke of England!" the constable trembled. Duke of England was no better than the Mo family, who had no real power. He was the founding father of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Why don''t you believe it! This is the token and guide of the Duke of England. I don''t think anyone dares to fake the banner of the Duke of England in the Tang Dynasty!" the knight on the horse said proudly.


    The constable carefully checked the token, which convinced him that it was true. He quickly apologized and said: "it''s a villain who has eyes and doesn''t know Mount Tai. He collided with the British public''s team. Come on, let''s go!"


    The knight snorted coldly and didn''t have the same knowledge as the constable. He waved his hand and left.


    The constable breathed a sigh of relief and secretly congratulated himself. However, before he had a little rest, he saw a luxurious motorcade coming.


    "Kui Guogong''s motorcade!" the constable was shocked. Unexpectedly, he met two Guogong motorcades in a row.


    The constable came forward carefully and asked. The steward of Kui was not embarrassed, but generously showed the token and guide. After the constable checked that it was ok, he released it immediately.


    However, this is not over yet, and then a team of Duke Jiang, Duke Hubei and Duke Yu came in an endless stream.


    "There''s something wrong with the situation. Go and explore their goods." it''s usually difficult for them to see a convoy of the government. Now they have seen five in a row, and the directions and tokens of each family are accurate. More importantly, these citizens come from Chang''an and come from the same place as the Mojia village they intercepted.


    One of the clerks went over to look for an opportunity to explore the goods of the convoy.


    "You thief, how dare you steal the property of the government of Yiguo!" soon, with the sound of soldiers and iron, a violent drink came.


    "Constable, help me!" a familiar voice shouted in horror.


    The constable trembled in his heart and hurried over. He saw a tough old soldier putting a knife on the neck of the officer he had just sent.


    "All misunderstandings, misunderstandings, things are easy to discuss!" the constable hurriedly advised.


    "I didn''t expect that a court official would be willing to be a mouse and learn to steal." the old soldier sneered.


    The sergeant exclaimed, "I didn''t steal it, Constable. They transported goods from Mojia village."


    The constable suddenly realized that today''s motorcades of the government were all like this. He didn''t expect that the Mexican family could invite the government to help them.


    "Please forgive me, we have received the order of the Zheng family, but all goods in Mojia village are not allowed to pass through." the constable directly moved the Zheng family out. He knew that his status could not stop the motorcade of the government at all, so he could only hope that they could act conveniently in the face of the Zheng family.


    The old soldier sneered: "I don''t care what the Zheng family and the Fang family. What we transport is not contraband and stolen goods. All the procedures are clear. I don''t think anyone dares to stop us. Do you think the Zheng family can hold down our government!"


    The constable looked at the old soldier''s cold eyes and immediately knew that this matter was not what he could decide. At present, the bachelor was soft and said, "I''ve offended!"


    The constable reached out and waved to the front to release.


    With a sneer, the old pawn reached out his hand and threw the scared and soft servant aside. He sneered: "I was wrong. You are not willing to be a mouse, but a dog!"


    The captor turned pale with anger, but when he thought that neither the Zheng family nor the government could offend him, he was discouraged and waved his hand powerlessly: "go! Tell the Zheng family about it. We can''t manage it anymore."


    "The motorcade of the government!" the Zheng family and their son were shocked when they heard the report from the Xingyang official.


    "Can the MOH family invite all the princes to help?" Zheng Chang said inconceivably.


    The master of the Zheng family shook his head and said, "the Mohist family has not yet had such a big face. Our attitude of five hopes and seven surnames has been very clear. Those Lords will not be so unwise."


    "I know, it must be Qin Huaiyu''s bastards. They had a good relationship with mojiazi, but it must be them who helped mojiazi." Zheng Chang gnashed his teeth.


    "The Mohists are really difficult to deal with. They even use these aristocratic sons to pretend to be powerful." Zheng''s master frowned.


    "Father, what should we do? If the Mohists use these government convoys to transport goods, I''m afraid our plan will become a joke." Zheng Chang frowned. They rely on the power of the government. Maybe these officials can intercept the convoy of the Mohist village in their face, However, they absolutely dare not intercept the motorcade of the government that can determine their positions in chaotang. If these motorcades are allowed to run rampant, their plan to encircle and suppress Mojia village will be a complete failure.


    "It seems that we are going to share some benefits to these governments!" Zheng''s master said heartily.


    For ordinary officials, they can command easily. However, for high-ranking princes, if they want to come to the door for help, they must pay a high price. Fortunately, these benefits are not shared by the Zheng family, but by the seven families.


    "Mohist is really good at calculating!" at this moment, he really realized Mohist''s plan and lured these dandies. He could not only take the opportunity to empty the inventory of Mohist village, but also let them pay a lot of blood.


    "But you''re just dying!" Zheng''s master sneered.

 Chapter 971

    When a group of bruised dandies appeared in front of Merton, Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "I''m sorry, brothers!"


    "What''s this little injury for my brother?" Li Zhen was very righteous. The green and red on his face destroyed the atmosphere.


    "Brother Mo, this is the payment for this time. Unfortunately, brother Mo has given us a way to make money, but we are sorry for brother Mo, and I''m afraid we can''t cooperate in the future!" Liu rensolid said reluctantly.


    A business trip has made thousands of profits at once, and it is legitimate. For many dandies, it''s a pity that they only make it once, and there will be no next time. How can they be happy.


    "Hateful, five surnames and seven hopes are so overbearing that they stabbed my father directly and hurt me for nothing." Liu Renshi said angrily.


    The other dandies nodded one after another, with a look of indignation. It can be said that they were gnashing their teeth at the five surnames and seven hopes.


    "Brother Mo, I''m sorry!" the dandies said shamefully.


    Merton shook his head and said, "where is it? Mo has implicated you. Mo has written down this favor!"


    The dandies couldn''t help but rejoice. The reason why they came to Merton to sell miserably was to let Merton recognize the favor. The so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and a leak in the hands of the Mohists is enough for them.


    Moreover, the news of the dandies is quite well-informed. Naturally, they also know the purpose of the five hopes and seven surnames. If the Mohist son is willing to bow his head, the current dilemma will disappear immediately.


    Even if there is Princess Changle, the Mexican family will not lose power in the end, which is why they are willing to make friends with the Mexican family.


    "Then I won''t disturb you!" Liu Renshi said goodbye. Naturally, they knew that the Mohists were in a mess at the moment and bowed their hands to leave one after another.


    "I''m sorry to bother you. A little gratitude is no respect!" Morton arched his hand.


    "No! No!" all the dandies waved their hands again and again with a rich and powerful appearance, and looked particularly strange with a black and blue face.


    However, when they saw rows of brand-new bicycles in the courtyard, their eyes suddenly straightened.


    "This is a bicycle comparable to a wooden ox and a horse!" a group of dandies exclaimed one after another.


    Although they were beaten, their share of income did not decrease. In addition, they did not help mojiazi break the game. Naturally, they were unwilling to accept more thank-you gifts. However, the bicycle in front of them was different. When Qin Huaiyu and his three people rode bicycles to show off to them, they had long been itching. How can they bear to own a bicycle at the moment.


    "Thank you, brother Mo!" a group of dandies said happily. At present, everyone loves a bicycle. Some push with both hands, and Li Zhen and others pull the ground with their feet and slide out of the Mo house.


    Merton sighed as he watched the dandies leave. Sure enough, every fool of these emerging aristocratic families called him, not only to five surnames and seven looks, but also to him.


    In this way, we can not only share many benefits from the five surnames and seven hopes, but also offend the Mexican family. It can be said that both sides please.


    Merton has long been prepared for the neutrality of Chang''an giants, and these emerging giants have helped the Mohists once, and Merton has nothing to say.


    "Boss, what should I do now?" Xu Jie quietly appeared behind Merton.


    Merton picked up a kind of silver note sent by the dandy and sneered, "with these silver notes, the crisis of the Mojia village bank can be alleviated. The war between us and the aristocratic family with Wuwang and Qixing has just begun."


    Xu Jie nodded. Since Wuwang Qiwang besieged Mohism, the Bank of Mohism village has been the most affected. Since Mohism offended Wuwang Qiwang, merchants with Wuwang Qiwang have withdrawn their deposits in Mohism village, and even the bill business has changed to the bank run by Ziqian.


    Fortunately, Merton was ready and tightened money immediately. In addition, with the great cause of the Mojia village, it was able to cope with the rush of runs. With this batch of loans, the Mojia village bank must be able to hold on for another period of time.


    However, what Merton didn''t expect was that only two days later, there was bad news that there was a large-scale run on mojiacun bank.


    "I want to withdraw money!"


    "I want to change the silver note into cash."


    "That''s my hard-earned money!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Dongshi, merchants poured into the Mojia village bank in Dongshi and shouted one after another.


    "You should consider clearly that if you withdraw your deposit now, you will lose a lot of interest, which is a big loss!" a Mohist child shouted.


    "As long as our capital comes back, what is the loss of some interest? Who knows when Mojia village will close down, and we will be in trouble when we lose our money." someone in the crowd who took the money shouted.


    "Don''t listen to the rumor. The Mohist village has a great cause and 300000 Guan deposited in the imperial palace as security. How can it go bankrupt!" the Mohist children quickly refuted the rumor.


    "It''s futile for you to offend the five surnames and seven hopes of the great cause of the Mohist village!" the crowd disapproved. On one side, there are the five surnames and seven hopes that have occupied the top of the Chinese pyramid for thousands of years. One is the newly revived Mohist. The world doesn''t have to think about who has great power. If the five surnames and seven hopes are combined, even the emperor should avoid three points. The odds of the Mohist son''s victory are too small.


    Shen Hongcai looked at the scene with an embarrassed face. When the run was about to begin, he found that he still underestimated people''s hearts. I''m afraid the safe margin he had calculated could not last long.


    "Boss!" Shen Hongcai came to the carriage across the street with a dignified face. The curtain of the carriage opened and revealed Merton''s face.


    "How long can Mojia village bank last?" Merton asked calmly.


    Shen Hongcai said with a heavy face: "we have already predicted this. We have already transferred a large number of cash from Mojia village. However, on this scale, if it continues to deteriorate, we can last up to five days."


    "Five days!" Merton could not help a silence.


    Shen Hongcai couldn''t help explaining: "the Mojia village bank itself is profitable. Now the only gap is that the money lent out can''t be recovered in a short time. This is the current situation."


    "In your opinion, how should it be resolved?" Merton asked.


    Shen Hongcai solemnly said: "in this case, the bank has also had a rehearsal. There are two ways to solve it. One is to collect the loans from the workshops. As long as the money lent by the bank is collected, the current dilemma will be solved."


    Merton shook his head and said, "these workshops borrowed money from Mojia village because of the shortage of funds, and most of them have been used. I''m afraid they can''t recover much even at the moment."


    "Then there is only the second way, that is to raise interest to retain depositors!" Shen Hongcai solemnly said. Only if the interest is enough, even if there is a risk, someone will be willing to do it. This can be a reason for printing money.


    "It''s just drinking poison to quench thirst." Merton shook his head. If he pays too high interest, he can retain depositors. It''s definitely just high interest. I''m afraid it will bring down the Mojia village.


    "What does the owner mean?" Shen Hongcai asked.


    "Collect the loan from the workshop as usual. If you are willing to repay it in advance, you can appropriately reduce or reduce some interest. If you don''t have money, you don''t have to force it." Merton said. If you can recover more money, Merton will not be hypocritical.


    Shen Hongcai nodded and kept the matter in mind.


    "As for the deposit interest, it really needs to be adjusted?" Merton frowned at the crowded crowd eager to withdraw money.


    "The owner thinks it''s appropriate to raise it." Shen Hongcai asked.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not raising the interest rate, but reducing the interest rate. Don''t you think the interest rate on this deposit is too high?"


    "Cut interest rates?" Shen Hongcai couldn''t help opening his eyes and couldn''t believe looking at Merton.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, from now on, the current deposit will be set at 30 cents. The one-year interest rate is 1.5%, the two-year interest rate is 2%, the three-year interest rate is 3.5%, and the four-year interest rate is the same as the five-year interest rate."


    "So low?" Shen Hongcai frowned. The current deposit was 30 cents, and the interest for three or five months was almost negligible,


    Other annual interest rates are reduced a lot. Even the four-year interest rate and five-year interest rate with the highest interest rate are directly the same as the three-year interest rate. In this way, the income from saving money is much less.


    Merton sneered: "it''s OK to want a high interest rate. The four-year interest rate and the five-year interest rate can be the same up to 5%, but there is an agreement that you can''t withdraw before time, and you can''t withdraw in advance."


    Shen Hongcai understood Merton''s plan. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "then do as the boss said."


    Soon, Mojia Village Bank launched a new announcement, which immediately caused an uproar among people who came to withdraw money.


    "Cut interest rates!"


    No one thought that the mojiazi suddenly cut interest rates when the Mojia village needed money most.


    "What about our previous passbook?" a depositor asked loudly.


    Shen Hongcai said loudly, "the previous passbook was calculated according to the agreed interest rate. From now on, all deposits will be settled at the new interest rate."


    "Mojiazi is crazy. He doesn''t want to raise interest rates and let us save money. How can he reduce interest rates." so many people came to run. In addition to being afraid of the collapse of mojiacun bank, more people think that even if they lose a little interest at present, they can force mojiazi to absorb savings at high interest rates. At that time, they can make more money.


    But who knows that the Mohists did the opposite, not only did not raise interest rates, but cut interest rates, and the drop was nearly half, which made all their small abacus fail.


    "What should we do? We have already lost a lot when we withdraw money now, and there will be no such high interest when we save money in the future." a citizen exclaimed.


    "It seems that we have really hurt mojiazi''s heart. Originally, mojiazi only needed to borrow 100000 yuan. However, seeing that we are saving more and more money, even if the interest is very high, we still collect all the money according to the order. But we take advantage of the time when mojiazi needs money most." a merchant looked up and sighed.


    "Isn''t he afraid that we will all take out the money and let the bank close down?" said an old landlord.


    The merchant on one side said sarcastically, "what are you doing now? Come out and watch the excitement! Besides, who says that the Mexican family will lose, but the Mexican family who creates miracles has never lost."


    "Yes, besides, there are 300000 guans in the Imperial Palace, plus the wealth of Mojia village..." the more they say, the more hesitant they are, they feel that if they withdraw money now, they will lose too much, and there will be no such high interest in the future.


    Many people have retreated one after another. The reputation of Mozi not being defeated, coupled with the strong backing of Mozi village, has given many people a little more confidence in Mozi. Coupled with their psychology of losing money, they have chosen to wait and see.


    Looking at the greatly reduced run team, Shen Hongcai couldn''t help opening his eyes. No one thought that the problem that gave him a headache was solved by Merton in a seemingly incredible way.

 Chapter 972

    "A group of fools! It''s so easy to be played with by the Mojia children and applauded!" Zheng Chang, who entered Beijing again, couldn''t help humming coldly when he heard that the run in Mojia village was alleviated.


    However, he did not realize that the fools in his mouth were instigated by them to run on the Mojia village bank.


    "Back to the young master, mojiazi is really difficult to deal with, and the great business of Mojia village is big enough to support the Bank of Mojia village for a long time, but it''s not that they don''t have fatal defects." a middle-aged man dressed as a shopkeeper said proudly.


    This is Zheng Bo, the chief shopkeeper of the Zheng family. He is fully responsible for the secret industry of the Zheng family and has a lot of business talent,


    Zheng Chang was immediately interested and said, "Zheng Bo said in detail."


    "Mojia village has a lot of money injected into the bank, but it''s just drinking poison to quench thirst, but it''s not satisfied with the money loaned by the Mojia village bank. If the money loaned by the Mojia village bank can''t be recovered, the Mojia son can do nothing, even if all the 300000 guans in the royal treasury are taken out, it''s not enough to fill the big hole on this day." Zheng Bo said proudly.


    "You mean those workshops that have not paid the loan in Mojia village?" Zheng opened his eyes and said.


    Zheng Bo said proudly, "yes, a Mohist village has the courage to refuse my five surnames and seven hopes. However, I don''t believe that several ordinary workshops and businesses have the courage to refuse my family. If they can cooperate with me, it''s natural. If they don''t know interest and stand on the side of the Mohist family, don''t blame me for being rude."


    "Zheng Bo''s strategy is really clever!"


    Zheng Chang couldn''t help showing an expression of wisdom. He didn''t believe that everyone was Mexican and had the courage to refuse them.


    Chang''an Fan family, shopkeeper fan and the eldest son of the fan family sat face to face with dignity. Who would have thought that they would send off the lobbyists of the Mohist and aristocratic family one after another in a short time.


    "Father, the Mohist family wants to press for payment, but Wuwang and Qixing want me to default. What should I do?" the eldest son of the fan family said anxiously.


    The fan family suffered a disaster before. It was all thanks to the help of the Mojia village bank. However, who would have thought that the business had just improved, and they were caught in a dilemma by the struggle between the Mojia family and the five surnames and seven hopes.


    "The fire in the city gate will affect the fish in the pond!" shopkeeper fan worried. He wanted to do business honestly, but he didn''t expect to encounter waves many times.


    "Father, that''s Wuxing Qiwang. Even the famous Mohist village was besieged by Wuxing Qiwang and retreated. What''s more, I waited for a small merchant. It''s not just a matter of fingers before Wuxing Qiwang wanted to destroy us. I believe that Mohist will understand our choice." the eldest son of the fan family clenched his teeth.


    Shopkeeper fan suddenly changed his color and said, "don''t forget that when the fan family was in trouble, the Mojia village helped the fan family. If the fan family laid a stone on the Mojia village at the moment, how does the whole Chang''an city treat the fan family and who dares to do business with the fan family."


    The eldest son of the fan family became angry and said, "if you offend the Mojia village, my fan family can still survive. If you offend the Wuwang seven surnames, the fan family is dead. Don''t forget the lessons of the Mojia village."


    The business model of fan''s firm is somewhat similar to that of Mojia village. They all set up businesses in many places. If the means are used, fan''s firm will collapse in a short time.


    Shopkeeper fan shook his head and said, "even if we survive, it''s just a reflection. If we betray Mojia village, the Bank of Mojia village will surely fail. The last time the fan family was in trouble, it all depends on the low interest loan of Mojia village bank, but next time, who will save the fan family. At that time, the fan family will regret, but we destroyed the Great Wall."


    "What my father meant was that we were on the side of the Mohist family. We should know that the odds of winning the Mohist family were very small." the eldest son of the fan family frowned. At present, the five hopes and seven surnames showed how huge the power was. The fan family was not surprised.


    Shopkeeper Fan said firmly, "yes, the five surnames and seven hopes are really strong. If ordinary people have no power to fight back, but the Mohist school is different?"


    "Different?" the eldest son of the fan family wondered.


    Shopkeeper fan sighed: "that''s Mohist!"


    The eldest son of the fan family was stunned. He didn''t expect that his father''s reason was this. However, the eldest son of the fan family felt a little more at ease when he heard this sentence. Since the Mexican family appeared in Chang''an City, it can be said that they have created miracles and never lost. This time, the Mexican family is not without resistance. Maybe it''s not certain that they can turn over the game,


    Moreover, when they mortgage their loans, they are not unconditional and need to mortgage real estate. Even with the support of five surnames and seven hopes, their arrears can be in arrears for a while, I''m afraid they can''t be in arrears for a lifetime, and they will have to be repaid sooner or later.


    "Then I''m afraid the fan family will be suppressed by five surnames and seven hopes." the eldest son of the fan family said in a resigned manner.


    Shopkeeper fan snorted coldly: "last time, my father was weak and didn''t have the courage to break his wrist. However, today it''s the time for the survival of the fan family. My father wants to let those aristocratic families know that even if we are a small merchant, we have the right to say no."


    With the passage of time, it was getting closer and closer to the time when the five surnames and seven looked at the ultimatum. The whole Chang''an city felt like a mountain rain was coming and the building was full of wind.


    Shopkeeper Shen of Mojia village bank and shopkeeper Zheng Bo of zhengjiada are the busiest two people in Chang''an city. They keep running between major businesses and lobby one after another.


    "Don''t these fools know that their lips are dead and their teeth are cold? The Mojia village has fallen, and they are just fish on the chopping board. Sooner or later, they will become delicious food in the mouth of others." Shen Hongcai returned to the Bank of Mojia village with nothing after a busy morning.


    Although the workshops didn''t make a statement, he had obviously felt alienated and had obviously turned to the aristocratic family. More importantly, he didn''t recover much loan money at all. Although some workshops based in Chang''an City firmly stood on the side of Mojia village, these workshops had spent all the money of Mojia village and had no spare money to repay the loan.


    "If it hadn''t been for the benevolence of the next thought, and if the bank thought that the borrower didn''t have the ability to repay the loan, it could collect the loan in advance, why would there be today''s trouble." Shen Hongcai couldn''t help shouting angrily when he looked at the stacks of mortgage deeds in his hand.


    Merton once made this proposal, but he tried to deny it. Now it seems that Merton still has foresight. I''m afraid it''s necessary to add this to the loan agreement in the future. Of course, the most important thing at the moment is to get through the current level, otherwise there will be no future.


    "Shopkeeper Shen!" suddenly a bright voice interrupted Shen Hongcai, and a figure that made him gnash his teeth appeared in the hall.


    "Shopkeeper fan!" Shen Hongcai was a little bad. At the beginning, the Mojia village bank saved fan''s firm from fire and water, but he didn''t expect that fan''s firm had been closed for several times.


    Shopkeeper fan laughed and said, "shopkeeper Shen, don''t blame me. Recently, fan was busy raising money. I had to see shopkeeper Shen. I finally raised enough money. I came to repay the loan at the first time."


    "Come and repay the loan!" Shen Hongcai was stunned and couldn''t believe looking at shopkeeper fan. Shopkeeper fan was still standing on the side of the aristocratic family. He didn''t even see him at the door. Now why did he suddenly come to the door to repay the debt in person.


    "This is the silver note of the fan family loan. Please check it by shopkeeper Shen." shopkeeper fan waved his hand, took out a large stack of silver notes from his arms and put them in front of Shen Hongcai.


    "How can the fan family repay all the loans at once? As the big manager of Mojia village bank, he is familiar with the flow of major commercial banks. The fan family''s business has indeed improved. However, he is more than willing to repay all the loans at one time.


    Shopkeeper fan smiled bitterly and said, "shopkeeper Shen is joking. There will be no fan''s firm in the future. My younger brother has changed hands of fan''s firm these days, and he can still have a lot of money to provide for the elderly."


    The reason why shopkeeper fan closed the door was to paralyze the five surnames and seven hopes and change hands in the business. After this, shopkeeper fan was a little discouraged, so he took the opportunity to change hands and avoid the vortex.


    Shen Hongcai couldn''t help but get up solemnly and solemnly saluted shopkeeper fan: "the Mohist school will always remember the friendship of brother fan!"


    Shopkeeper fan waved his hand and left. He lived in business all his life. Finally, he found that the so-called wealth was vulnerable in front of power. Fan''s firm had no background. Even if he escaped, he would be killed in the future. He was lucky to be able to leave.


    After shopkeeper fan left, many businesses came to repay the loan, but more people didn''t show up at all. Even in the running water of Mojia village bank, the other party was not short of money.


    There are loyal businessmen, but most of them are people who are driven by the wind. Now the wind of the aristocratic family is booming, so many merchants naturally know where to fall.


    As the loans gradually failed to collect and the citizens continued to run, rumors began to spread in Chang''an city.


    "Mojia village bank is going bankrupt!"


    For a moment, the news spread all over the streets.

 Chapter 973

    In front of the Bank of Mojia village, there were a lot of people who came to run. Everyone scrambled to get the money for fear that their money would be wasted if they were late.


    "How long can the Mojia village bank last!" Merton frowned at the dark crowd below on the second floor of the Mojia village bank.


    "Three days at most!" Shen Hongcai said gloomily. Although many workshops pay back the money, rumors are everywhere in Chang''an City, and more and more people come to run. I''m afraid the Mojia village bank can''t last long.


    "Three days!" suddenly the atmosphere was dead. The gap in the Bank of Mojia village was not a bit. In such a short time of three days, where to raise so much money, and to create this speed is to take out the 300000 yuan in the imperial palace. I''m afraid it''s also a cup of water cart salary.


    "These aristocratic families are too vicious!" Shen Hongcai said angrily. These days, the aristocratic families have made all kinds of evil moves, not only threatening and luring those workshops, but also killing all the workshops that support the Mohist school, causing heavy losses to many workshops.


    Now the Bank of Mojia village is the core of Mojia village. It is not only the most powerful Department of Mojia village, but also the most vulnerable department. Once the Bank of Mojia village collapses, it will certainly affect the whole body, and the whole Mojia village will collapse like an avalanche.


    "Tomorrow, a batch of money will be sent to Mojia village. The master must support the Bank of Mojia village for ten days!" Merton frowned.


    "Ten days! Does the owner have a way to bring the Mojia village bank back to life?" Shen Hongcai was delighted and couldn''t believe looking at Merton.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s man-made. There are many good things in Mojia village, but many people think about them. They should be able to sell at a good price!"


    Shen Hongcai took a deep breath and solemnly said, "don''t worry, my boss. Shen will certainly let the Mojia village bank hold on!"


    Merton nodded, turned and went downstairs. There was a four-wheel carriage waiting there. Merton got on the carriage and was about to leave. Suddenly, a brand-new four-wheel carriage produced by Mojia village stopped in front of Merton''s carriage.


    "The four wheeled carriage produced in Mojia village is really extraordinary. It''s very comfortable to ride on the ground, and the brakes are accurate. It won''t hurt the horse? Wouldn''t it be a pity if it stopped production!" suddenly a greasy voice came, and the door slid down, revealing Zheng Chang''s proud face.


    "It''s you!" Morton frowned. Naturally, he recognized Zheng Chang, the son of the aristocratic family.


    "Well, brother Mo, isn''t my younger brother interesting enough? I heard that Mojia village is short of money recently. I specially bought a four-wheel carriage produced by Mojia village to support brother Mo, but it cost me 20 yuan." Zheng Chang said proudly.


    "I''m afraid brother Zheng is joking. The four wheeled carriage produced by Mojia village is the best in the world. How can it stop production? As for the lack of money, it''s just a rumor. I believe brother Zheng knows better than anyone!" Merton said expressionless. If five surnames and seven hopes spread rumors, how could Mojia village fall into a run crisis.


    "Rumor!" Zheng Geng chuckled, pointing to the long line in the Bank of Mojia village and sneered, "if it''s a rumor, what''s this? This is the person who the Mohists desperately protect, but now he has become a fatal blow to the Mohists. It''s chilling to bite the hand that feeds the enemy."


    Mohism represents countless ordinary people at the lower level of society, and now it is countless people at the lower level who are quietly running against the Bank of Mohism village. What Zheng Chang said is the most intuitive fact.


    However, Merton was unmoved, shook his head and said, "they just want to get back their money. It''s not wrong. It''s just human nature. They don''t ask much, but they want to make some money with their spare money, so that people who are really short of money can get through a short time."


    "Those who are really wrong are those who spread rumors. A rumor makes countless people lose a lot of interest, and makes people who are really short of money have nowhere to borrow and have no way out. Harming others rather than self-interest is the biggest sin in the world."


    Zheng Chang immediately blushed. He was a proud son of an aristocratic family. He couldn''t stand such a big insult. At that moment, he angrily said, "am I wrong? Your Mojia village bank really doesn''t have money. In the face of such a run, you can support it for a few days, three days and five days. Even if 300000 yuan in the palace is taken out, you can''t support it for half a month."


    "So what? As long as the Bank of Mojia village still holds those land deeds, sooner or later the workshops will pay back the money, and the money belonging to Mojia village will come back sooner or later." Merton snorted coldly.


    Zheng Chang sneered: "You think you can easily get the money back. In a short time, you will find that countless workshops have declared bankruptcy. Moreover, even if you recover a little, the reputation of the Bank of Mojia village will be damaged at that time. I know that this bank is the most important institution of brother Mo and a crucial step in the Mojia plan. Without the bank, the road to the revival of Mojia will not be further Against retreat, the Mohist family and the aristocratic family share two interests. Once again, the younger brother can be the master. The main thing is that brother Mo agrees to turn fighting into friendship. The conditions originally promised by Wuwang and Qixing remain unchanged. "


    Zheng Chang knew that Merton''s greatest wish was to revive Mohism, so he decided to tempt Merton.


    "Different ways don''t work together! The Mohist family and the aristocratic family are doomed not to go the same way." Merton refused without hesitation.


    Zheng Chang''s expression suddenly became extremely cold and said, "I think brother Mo is still arrogant. I hope the seven surnames have stood for thousands of years. I''ve never been able to get what I want. I hope brother Mo won''t regret it. I''m afraid this condition won''t be the case when the Mojia village goes bankrupt."


    Merton proudly said, "for thousands of years, no one dares to refuse five surnames and seven hopes. It''s not that they don''t want to. In that case, let Mo say no first."


    With that, Merton waved his hand and the window slowly rose. He didn''t want to say more to Zheng Chang.


    Zheng changdun was so angry that he said, "I know you want to sell off the industry of Mojia village. Do you think anyone will dare to take over? Then someone will take over and how much money can be made. In the end, you will find that it is Wuwang and Qixing that is the most fair."


    However, Merton did not respond. Instead, the carriage kept speeding up, leaving Zheng Chang shouting in the street.


    Although the Mohist school is in an absolute disadvantage, the Wuwang Qiwang family is also under great pressure. They use their power to suppress the Mohist school. Only in order to solve the smuggling of goods by a group of dandies, the Wuwang Qiwang family has paid a lot of political resources, which can satisfy the appetite of these emerging giants. In their hearts, they don''t want to cut the mess quickly, After all, the world''s surname is Li, not Zheng or Wang, but they didn''t expect that the Mo family was smelly and hard. They were ready to fight the aristocratic family to the end.


    "Don''t worry, young master. The old slave has already been on guard against the move of Mojia Zi. Even if Mojia Zi sells off the whole industry of Mojia village, he is not satisfied with the big hole in the Bank of Mojia village." Zheng Bodao aside.


    Zheng Chang nodded a little relieved and said, "the Mohist school is smelly and hard. We can''t talk about it at all. How''s your arrangement with the Kong family?"


    Zheng Berton said proudly: "Young master, don''t worry. It''s easy to say that the Mohists still have some trouble. The Kongs don''t want to be able to learn only four books and five classics. Where they are willing to talk about arithmetic, Chinese Studies and mathematics, villains just need to broadcast it a little. Those teachers don''t need us to say more. They turn against the Kongs one by one, not to mention that the improvement of the primary school in the private school can''t go on, even it has already been completed Private schools willing to change into primary schools have also defected. "


    "Well done!" Zheng Chang was satisfied. At the moment, although there was no good news from the Mohist school, the Confucianists had a lot of good news, and he was instructed by his father. The Mohist school was just the back road for the preparation of five hopes and seven surnames. As long as the Confucian reform stopped, the aristocratic family would rest easy. At that time, it would be a little effort to clean up the Mohist school.


    "This is just one of them. Not only the master is unwilling to teach, but also the students are unwilling to learn. Only the four books and five classics can get the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty. The villain only gives a little advice. Many students and parents are full of resentment. I believe they will soon be stabbed into the court. Kong Yingda will feel better at that time." Fubo gloated.


    "Good! Good!" Zheng guanglang laughed. He finally heard the good news. Once the Kong family''s private school failed to transform the primary school and the worries of the aristocratic family were gone, he would be the first.

 Chapter 974

    Confucius house!


    Kong Yingda returned to his residence with a tired face. He didn''t expect that his confident education reform would encounter so much resistance.


    Not only a group of teachers are unwilling, but even students are unwilling. They are simply unwilling to learn other knowledge besides scientific examination.


    Today, he received dozens of joint petitions from teachers and students'' parents, and his political enemy Yu Zhining attacked him repeatedly, which exhausted him.


    "Today''s future generations have finally realized the plight of their ancestors who traveled around the world and repeatedly hit the wall." Kong Yingda knelt in front of Kong Sheng''s portrait and said with deep fatigue.


    In those days, Confucius sage traveled around the world to praise Confucius'' benevolence and courtesy and admire Confucius'' knowledge for his own ideas. However, no one valued Confucius, and Confucius was depressed all his life. But now I am not like this. Everyone knows that once the primary school is completed, it will benefit countless students all over the world. This will be good governance, but it has been frustrated repeatedly.


    "The root of this matter lies in the five surnames and seven hopes, and the essence of the primary school dispute is the dispute between aristocratic families and poor families." Kong Desheng''s figure appeared in front of the portrait of Confucius and said faintly.


    "Aristocratic family and poor family?" Kong Yingda sighed in his heart. He didn''t know that this was a black hand with five surnames and seven looks. If it weren''t for this, how could Manchu officials either oppose or be neutral.


    "News has come from Qufu and we are quite dissatisfied with our behavior in Chang''an city." Kong Desheng said in a low voice.


    "Dissatisfied?" Kong Yingda raised her eyebrows and angrily scolded, "have they forgotten the idea of their ancestors so that people all over the world can know books and understand rites? This is Kong Sheng''s lifelong wish."


    Kong Desheng sighed slightly and said, "my Kong family has passed on for thousands of years and has become an aristocratic family."


    In his opinion, even the Confucius family has gradually deteriorated. He just wants to immerse himself in the glory of the Confucius family and enjoy its success. No matter whether the aristocratic family is good or poor, as long as Confucianism is popular, the Confucius family just needs to be alone and keep their own prosperity.


    Kong Yingda denounced: "it''s ridiculous. Now a hundred schools of thought are contending again. It''s the time for Confucianism to forge ahead. If even our descendants don''t fight for the legacy of our ancestors, how can the Kong family have the face to steal the legacy of our ancestors."


    Kong Desheng couldn''t help sighing. The Kongs in Qufu didn''t feel the power of the contention of a hundred schools of thought in Shandong. However, they were in Chang''an City and saw the rapid changes in Chang''an City, which can be described as a change for thousands of years. The glory of the Kongs came from the prosperity of Confucianism. If Confucianism lost in this contention of a hundred schools of thought, I''m afraid the glory of the ancestors of the Kongs would disappear, At that time, I''m afraid the Confucius family will regret.


    "Compared with the embarrassment of our ancestors Confucius, what are the difficulties of our future generations?" Kong Yingda stood up and said firmly in the face of the portrait of Kong Sheng.


    Kong Desheng said solemnly, "yes, we are all schools of thought. Our life philosophy is the Great Duke of the world. We can never seek private gifts for one family and one surname."


    It is the ultimate idea of Kong Sheng to be wise for the people all over the world. Now this opportunity is close at hand. The Kong family must not miss it.


    Uncle and nephew ignored one eye, and suddenly they were filled with pride and walked out of the Confucius ancestral hall with their heads held high.


    "Report back to the master! Marquis Mo asked to see you!" as soon as they walked out of the ancestral hall, they heard the report from the servants of the Confucius house.


    "The Mohist family......" Kong Yingda was surprised. He knew that the Mohist family was in a bad situation. He didn''t expect him to come to the door at this time.


    "Where are people?" Kong Yingda asked.


    "The villain has arranged for him to wait in the living room." the servants of the Confucius house respectfully said.


    Kong Desheng said proudly, "let''s go! It''s good to know Mohism!"


    When they came to the living room, they saw mojiazi get up and bow their hands and say, "I''ve seen the master and predecessors."


    "What are you doing here? Are you coming to see the joke of entering the family?" Kong Yingda said unhappily. He was reduced to such a point that he could not get rid of the relationship with the Mohist school. If the Mohist school was not pressed step by step, Confucianism would still be at ease now. How could he take such a risk to compete with the aristocratic family.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "the master is serious. Now Confucianism and Mohism are in sympathy with each other. What qualifications do students have to laugh at Confucianism."


    "Sympathize with each other! As far as I know, the Mohist school is already in crisis. According to the rumors of Chang''an City, the Mohist village has begun to sell off its industry. Unfortunately, no bid has been made, and my Confucian school will never stay the same." Kong Desheng sneered.


    Merton nodded heavily and said, "yes, the industry of Mojia village has become the meat in the mouth of five surnames and seven hopes. No one dares to eat at all. Even if some people are willing to take risks and have to try their best to lower the price, that money is useless."


    "It''s also the Wuwang seven surnames!" Kong Desheng frowned. They have always been proud of being a hundred schools of thought. However, this time, the Wuwang seven surnames have taught them a deep lesson. A group of mercenary aristocratic families have made it difficult for the hundreds of schools of thought to inherit for thousands of years.


    "That''s because you are too radical. I see how you can fill such a huge hole." Kong Yingda snorted coldly. He admitted that his student was indeed a genius, but his actions were often radical. Although he saved himself from danger many times, the process was breathtaking, and he danced on the tip of the knife every time.


    Merton was cunning and said with a smile: "the hole in Mojia village bank is not in Momou''s heart. If Momou is willing, he can block it in a short time."


    "Seriously!" Kong Yingda looked at Merton incredulously. As far as he knew, it was an astronomical sum of money.


    "Of course, the Mohist movement is in the last few days, when the master can argue between true and false." Merton said confidently.


    Seeing Merton''s self-confidence, Kong Yingda couldn''t help taking a deep breath. If others spoke like this, Kong Yingda must think he was talking big. However, he couldn''t help believing Merton, because Merton has created enough miracles.


    "Then why do you have to wait until now..." Kong Desheng frowned. If the Mohist family has a way to fill the big hole in the bank, why do you have to wait until the Mohist situation has collapsed to this point before taking action.


    Merton sneered: "naturally, it''s to let the world see the greedy and ugly face of the aristocratic family. Without this, how can people all over the world understand how hypocritical the five surnames and seven hopes they look up to are and how to use power to seek private interests for them? Only when people all over the world see the selfishness of the aristocratic family can they trust the Grand Duke of our family."


    "Therefore, the Mohist School deliberately retreated until the desire for five hopes and seven surnames grew too big to hide." Kong Desheng opened his eyes and couldn''t believe it.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the Mohist school did not deliberately retreat. In the face of absolute power, the Mohist school can''t resist, but this doesn''t mean that the Mohist school has no power to fight back."


    Kong Desheng blew his beard and said coldly, "since the Mohist school is enough to protect itself, why did the Mohist Lord come to the door today? Is it to see the jokes of the Confucius family?"


    "Mo came here today to see if the Confucianists who defeated the Mohist school were still there, and if the legacy of Kong Sheng, who was not afraid of power and did not eat food from the cold, continued." Merton stared at Kong Yingda solemnly.


    Kong Yingda stood up angrily and said, "now you see, the millennium plan of our Confucianism was pointed out by ten thousand men. In the middle of the court, the old man was played by dozens of people in a day. In the field, countless teachers and students gnashed their teeth at the old man. Are you satisfied with the result?"


    "Does the master think he is wrong?" pursued Merton.


    Kong Yingda snorted coldly, "wrong? What''s wrong with me? Let everyone in the world read and understand etiquette. This is the ancestor''s lifelong dream. If I''m wrong, wouldn''t I say that the ancestor Confucius was wrong! In those years, the ancestors didn''t want to live in princes against their will, would I be willing to be driven by the aristocratic family?"


    Merton laughed and said, "so Confucianism is worthy of Mohist admiration and qualified to cooperate with Mohist."


    "Cooperation!" Kong Yingda turned a deaf ear to Merton''s flattery, but focused on Merton''s last sentence.


    "Yes, students have recently studied the Three Kingdoms and found that the situation of tripartite confrontation is really subtle. Now the five hopes and seven surnames are powerful, like Cao Wei, while Confucianism and Mohism are like Shu and Wu, and Shu and Wu are against Wei. From the students'' point of view, this is the time when you and our Confucianism and Mohism cooperate sincerely." Merton said generously.


    "Cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism!" Kong Yingda and his wife were so excited that they could not do anything about the current situation of Confucianism. If they cooperated with Mohism, it would be the best choice, just as Shu and Wu had the power to fight against Wei.


    "It''s OK to cooperate! But your Mohist school has a way to break the situation. If you can find a way to break the situation for Confucianism, the cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism may not be impossible." Kong Desheng said.


    Kong Yingda nodded. He knew that Merton had made many tricks. Maybe he could really solve the current dilemma of Confucianism. Since the Mohists wanted to cooperate, they had to show some sincerity.


    Merton laughed and said: "The master is really obsessed with the situation. The biggest reason why the masters and students all over the world often oppose the reform of private schools is that the imperial examination is not taken, and they think learning is useless! And the master, holding the Imperial College, is the highest University in the Tang Dynasty. Just keep the government order to add some content to the contents of the world rural examination, county examination and government examination. At that time, what do the master want the students all over the world to learn, the students all over the world The master will teach what he can learn. "


    The power of the baton of the college entrance examination in future generations is famous. Merton copied it and turned it into the baton of the imperial examination. It will certainly have the same effect. The Imperial College has great rights. I''m afraid everything else will be under the supervision of the Imperial College except that it can''t be determined by going to Beijing for the examination.


    "Wonderful!" Kong Desheng exclaimed. The purpose of these students'' school is to be officials in the imperial examination. As long as they can be officials, they will learn what they are asked to learn.


    However, Kong Yingda slowly shook his head and said, "this plan is wonderful, but it doesn''t work at the moment. Now the officials of the aristocratic family are all over the court. If I play this policy rashly, I''m afraid I will be rejected by all the officials immediately."


    "Alas!" Kong Desheng sighed with regret. Such a good plan can only be put on the shelf.


    Merton''s eyes turned and said, "since it doesn''t work from top to bottom, we can only wait from bottom to top."


    "Bottom up! What does this mean?" Kong Desheng didn''t understand.


    Merton Lang said: "Confucianism wants everyone in the world to be able to read and write. In addition to building primary schools, there is another way, that is, lending books to people in the world."


    "Lend books to people all over the world!" Kong Yingda was puzzled.


    Merton nodded: "The reason why aristocratic families occupy the Imperial Hall is not only that the children of aristocratic families have the guidance of famous teachers since childhood, but also because the aristocratic family has a large collection of books. The children of aristocratic families have extensive knowledge and doubled their natural talents. The poor children have a poor family background and can barely maintain their schooling, let alone buy books with money. They usually ask for books from others, which often attracts people''s eyes."


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help nodding. Naturally, he knew how difficult it was for a poor student to study. He didn''t even have many books. He didn''t talk about learning. That''s why it''s difficult for a poor family to get out of your son.


    "However, the poor students all over the world lack books to read, and the Confucius family must have countless books. If the master can set up a library in the busy market and donate all the books in his family for free reading by the students all over the world, what a blessing for the poor students all over the world." Merton said.


    "For students all over the world to read!" Kong Yingda was shocked. Once the poor students all over the world have a large number of books to read, the gap between him and the children of the aristocratic family will be narrowed to the extreme. In addition, the number of poor children is 100 times that of the children of the aristocratic family. Before long, the advantages of the aristocratic family will no longer exist.


    More importantly, the books read by these students are donated by the Confucius family. Isn''t it that all students in the world should accept the kindness of the Confucius family? How can the Confucius family miss such a good thing.


    Kong Desheng was also excited and couldn''t restrain himself. Apart from the Imperial Palace, I''m afraid there are more books in the world than the Kongs. However, he lost his way: "although this policy is good, most of the Kongs'' books are isolated books, which can be read by one person at most. If there are so many students in the world, how can they be borrowed by all students in the world.


    Merton suddenly showed a familiar shyness and said, "ink has a skill! It can solve the worries of Confucianism."

 Chapter 975

    "Printing, this is what you call ink technology." when Kong Yingda followed Merton to Ink magazine, they saw rows of printing tools and frowned.


    "That''s nature! Most of the books in the Confucius house are isolated. Naturally, they have to be printed before they can be borrowed by servants every day." Merton nodded and admitted.


    "That said, when you are an old man, you don''t understand printing. You need to be rigid for every page printed. The Kong family has countless books. You''re going to engrave them until monkey years and horses." Kong Yingda shook his head. How can he not understand printing? That''s what happened under his eyes. Engraving printing is extremely labor-consuming and time-consuming. It''s only suitable for books and periodicals printed in large quantities, For example, the ink journal, Confucian journal or the best-selling books of the four books and five classics can be printed in large quantities. Naturally, they can be returned to the original. However, the amount required for those isolated books is not much. If there are a large number of stereotypes, they can only be printed in small quantities, which is not even enough. In addition, the collection of books that need to be printed is more than 10000, which is the wealth of the Confucius family. I''m afraid they can''t afford to supply them.


    Even Kong Desheng was not good at looking at Merton. He didn''t know whether the boy came to help the Kong family or pit the Kong family.


    Merton laughed and said, "master, don''t worry. If the Mohist ink skills are so simple, the boy will not make a fool of himself. This time, the boy recommended the latest Mohist printing, movable type printing."


    "Movable type printing?" Kong Yingda didn''t understand.


    Merton said proudly, "do you remember where the inspiration of block printing came from?"


    "It seems to come from the seal!" Kong Yingda thought.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, it comes from the seal. At the beginning, our idea was to engrave the words on the board like a seal on the paper. This is block printing."


    Kong Yingda nodded. Engraving printing seemed simple, but it was a great thing. It directly solved the problem of copying books for students all over the world, and the price of books fell sharply.


    Merton continued: "woodblock printing is easy to use, but it is only suitable for a large number of printed books. The more one is engraved and printed, the lower the cost of printing books. However, it is not cost-effective for some books that do not sell well. Many isolated books are precious, but the sales volume is not high, so the publishing house is not willing to lose money at all."


    Kong Desheng nodded, and what Merton said was indeed the truth.


    "In printing ink periodicals, Mohists usually divide ink periodicals into several columns to carve wood plates for printing respectively. Several carvers work at the same time, which can save several times the carving time. Then these small blocks can be integrated into one piece, just enough to raise one edition for printing. This is the reason why ink periodicals can be printed quickly." Merton broke the news.


    "So it is?" Kong Yingda suddenly realized that the reason why Mo periodicals are more popular than Confucianism periodicals is not only the grounded content, but also the most important reason is that the number of pages of Mo periodicals is one-third more than Confucianism periodicals, which naturally appears sincere.


    "The master can think about it. Since we can divide a block into several pieces, why can''t we divide this small block into one word and then assemble it into one piece? This is movable type printing." Merton said.


    "One word, one word!" Kong Ying Darden was generally impressed. It may take half a day for a craftsman to carve a engraving. However, it may only take a moment to carve a word. As long as there are enough sculptors, they can be stereotyped in a short time.


    "No, the advantage of movable type printing is not only that. Once the engraving is fixed, and after printing this page, it is necessary to re stereotype. However, there are no same articles in the world, but the words used to write articles are the same. Once the movable type printing is made and printed, these engravings can re disrupt the typesetting without repeating the stereotype, which will greatly save the printing cost."


    When Merton finished, Kong Ying Darden''s eyes were bright. At this moment, he really realized that the power of movable type printing is that there is no need to repeat the stereotype. Just engraving all the words at one time is enough to print any book in the world, and it saves time and effort.


    "It''s a genius''s idea." Kong Yingda exclaimed. A woodblock printing has greatly reduced the price of books in the world, and movable type printing is a cross era technology. Once it is born, it will surely detonate the spread of knowledge in the world.


    "With this secret skill, I finally believe that the era when everyone can read has come. This is the general trend of the world. Those who follow will prosper and those who go against will die." Kong Desheng said happily.


    Once a large number of books can be printed, which books in the Kong family''s collection must be available again. Even ordinary people can have a large number of books to read. The educational resources in the hands of the aristocratic family will be spread out, which makes them more convinced that the day when the aristocratic family controls education is not far away.


    Both of them suddenly became heroic and had full confidence in defeating the aristocratic family for the first time.


    Merton nodded slightly. The reason why he threw out the unique skill of movable type printing is to cheer up the Confucianism. Once the Confucianism sees the hope of defeating the aristocratic family, it will not easily look at the five surnames and seven. As long as the Confucianism persists, the pressure on the Mohist side will be much easier.


    "Mo San, are the gifts for the master ready!" Murton Lang said.


    Mo San, who had been following behind in silence, immediately came forward and said, "young master, two predecessors, this way, please!"


    Under the leadership of Mo San, the people went out of the room and came to a large workshop. They saw that Mohist craftsmen were typesetting according to the handwritten manuscript. Movable characters as small as beans were quickly assembled on a template in the dexterous hands of Mohist children. It only took a little time. A version of the manuscript had been assembled, which was much faster than carving.


    "Every movable type in movable type printing is the same as the dictionary created by brother Kong. It is arranged according to the sound, rhyme and strokes, which is convenient for the children of Mohism to find. After use, it can be put back in its original place." Merton pointed to each movable type.


    "This is lettering, not wooden?" Kong Desheng picked up a movable type and was surprised. Woodblock printing has always been woodcut, but the lettering in his hand is obviously cold and heavy, which is obviously made of metal.


    Merton laughed and said, "wood lettering is OK, but it is easy to wear out, and it is easy to be bitten by insects as it is used for a long time! However, the biggest advantage of movable type printing is that the lettering can be reused, so Mo seeks new materials that can be printed without being vulnerable. The first idea of Mohist school is to carve ceramic movable characters with clay and burn them into pottery."


    "This method is feasible!" Kong Yingda nodded. Pottery is not afraid of corrosion and can indeed be reused.


    Merton nodded and said, "Tao Huo characters can be used, but they are too large. In addition, they are easy to be damaged if they fall, and they are eventually abandoned by the Mohists."


    "Is it made of iron?" Kong Desheng said thoughtfully, looking at the metal movable type in his hand.


    Merton shook his head and said, "iron cast movable type can also be used, but iron is easy to rust and too hard to carve movable type. The movable type seen by predecessors is lead movable type, which is made of pure lead refined by the Taoist external pill. It is not easy to rust, and the texture is soft and easy to carve. It is the best material for movable type printing."


    Kong Yingda nodded approvingly. Not only did he marvel at the creativity of the lead movable type in front of him, but also the craft of the lead movable type itself used the Mohist ink technology to the extreme. The metal movable type font in his hand is very small. The positive side is engraved with positive characters for easy search, and the reverse side is engraved with reverse characters. There is an exquisite buckle in the middle, which can make the two movable types just stuck together, so precise that it is even difficult to see the small gap.


    "Mohism is really extraordinary, and movable type printing has reached perfection in both creativity and technology." Kong Yingda couldn''t help sighing.


    "Lead movable type! The great gift of Mohism is really heavy enough! The Kongs are inspired." Kong Desheng said solemnly.


    Merton was embarrassed and said with a smile: "I misunderstood you. At present, there is only one set of lead movable type. If you take it away, I''m afraid the ink periodicals of the Mohist school will stop immediately. What the boy prepared for the Kong family is the pottery movable type made before the Mohist school. I believe it must be enough for the elder to print books."


    With a wave of his hand, Merton saw that Mo San opened a warehouse and revealed a mountain of pottery words.


    Kong Desheng blew his beard and said, "feeling, you boy, take the ink skills that the Mohists don''t need and come to the Kong family to beg for favor!"


    Merton hurriedly explained: "don''t be surprised, elder. It takes a lot of time to make a pair of movable type. There are tens of thousands of Chinese characters alone. Plus some commonly used words, there are thousands. It needs to be engraved according to its different frequency of use, plus the time it takes to engrave. If elder is willing to wait for more than a month, the boy will give a complete set of lead movable type."


    "No, pottery movable type is enough!" Kong Yingda said firmly. The Kong family has had enough of the cowardice of the aristocratic family. He is not willing to wait for a moment now. Moreover, in his opinion, the font of lead movable type is too small, and the ink journal used to carry more words is naturally the best. However, for Kong Yingda, who has been used to calligraphy all his life, A slightly larger font printed by Tao movable type is the most suitable text for the library. After all, the library faces readers who are used to reading big characters all over the world.

 Chapter 976

    "That''s good! The Confucius family does their best for the people who study all over the world. I hope that the people who study all over the world will not live up to the Confucius family''s intention. If they can study wholeheartedly, they will not live up to the great time." Kong Desheng sighed.


    Merton said in his heart, "it''s simple, boy. Here''s a persuasive poem. In cooperation with the library, it will certainly let people all over the world know the benefits of reading."


    "Poetry!" Kong Yingda and her husband could not help but feel a move in their hearts.


    If someone else writes poetry in front of the descendants of Kong Sheng, I''m afraid it''s a teacher''s axe. However, who in Chang''an doesn''t know that Mohist poetry is amazing! Each is a masterpiece. If we can get the help of Merton''s poems, I''m afraid the library will be popular.


    The most important thing in ink journals is paper and pen. At present, Mo San presented paper money. With a big hand, Merton waved his pen and wrote: "rich families don''t need to buy good fields. There are thousands of millet in the book."


    "You don''t have to build tall buildings to live in peace. There is a golden house in the book."


    "Don''t hate unscrupulous media when you get a wife. There is a face like jade in the book."


    "When you go out, don''t hate no one to follow. There are many cars and horses in the book."


    "If a man wants to succeed in his life, he often reads a hundred classics in front of the window."


    Kong Desheng couldn''t help but brighten his eyes and suddenly shouted, "what a book has its own gold house and its own Yan Ruyu."


    Everyone in the world knows that he wants to read, but he doesn''t know why. Now, the encouraging articles of Mohist school can say that he has done his best to read and study, which immediately aroused the desire of a man to read. Even Kong Desheng, who is old, can''t help but feel surging.


    "This is a true portrayal of our generation of readers."


    Kong Yingda also took a deep breath and suppressed the surging in his heart. He believed that this poem could certainly set off a reading frenzy for people all over the world in cooperation with the library.


    He took a deep look at the Mohist family and couldn''t help feeling that the Mohist family had this talent. For the first time, he believed that the Mohist family would surely defeat the encirclement and suppression of the Wuwang and Qixing aristocratic families.


    However, what he didn''t know was that Mozi still added private goods to this song "encouraging learning". In the original article, the five classics were frequently read in front of the window. Mozi quietly changed the Five Classics into a hundred classics. After all, it was the assistance of Mozi, and Kong Yingda couldn''t change it if he wanted to.


    However, Merton did not stop, but continued to write.


    "Don''t cherish the gold wisp clothes. Don''t cherish the youth."


    "When flowers bloom, they must be folded straight. Don''t wait for empty branches without flowers."


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help but gather and sigh: "when persuading you to cherish your youth, there was a poem in the Yuefu of the Han Dynasty that said: if you don''t work hard when you are young, you will be sad when you are old. Merton''s poem really has the beauty of similar tunes."


    Kong Desheng nodded again and again. How precious the youth time is. It is the best time to study. If you really waste your youth time, you will only be sad when you get old.


    Only two poems can surely make the name pass down through the ages, inspire countless students to make progress, and lead the tide of students'' reading all over the world.


    When they were excited, they saw Merton pick up his pen again.


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help patting his forehead, shaking his head and laughing. He forgot that as a student, he also had a likable and gnashing habit, that is, if he didn''t write, he would have to write three articles, but the third one is usually only half empty.


    Sure enough, mojiazi wrote two sentences and put down his pen. When they looked at it, they saw that there were only two sentences on the rice paper.


    "Knowledge is power, and knowledge is wealth."


    Kong Desheng couldn''t help but read them quietly. These two sentences can''t even be called poetry, but they are sonorous and powerful.


    Merton said proudly, "yes, the power of the world is in the hands of the aristocratic family. However, our family can be said to be unarmed. However, they don''t know that knowledge is the biggest weapon and the strongest power of our family. Knowledge can make a penniless man rich and an unarmed scholar win thousands of miles away."


    Kong Yingda nodded solemnly. In those years, Confucius had nothing but the knowledge he had learned, and finally founded Confucianism. In those years, the Mojia village was as poor as a wash, and it became the first village in the world with ink technology.


    Seeing Kong Yingda leave, several carriages loaded with Tao Huo left behind him. Merton was about to leave when Tian Mou''s voice sounded behind Merton.


    "Aren''t you afraid to raise a tiger if you give such a sharp weapon to the Kong family?"


    Once movable type printing comes into being, it will certainly make Confucianism flourish again. Such sharp tools are sent out from the hands of Mohists, which makes Tian Mou, who has always been hostile to Confucianism, very uncomfortable.


    "The biggest disadvantage of Mohist ink technology is that it is easy to be imitated. As long as ink journals use movable type printing, they will be known by others, but this is also an advantage. It is the reason why Mohist develops and grows, and as long as they stand at the top of the technology, they can obtain great benefits. Now the most advanced technology of movable type printing is in the hands of Mohist, with Kong''s help We advertise and believe that the printing house in Chang''an city will come to buy it soon, "Morton said confidently.


    "What about the library? With movable type printing and the library, the status of Confucianism will be as stable as Mount Tai, and it will be hundreds of times difficult for Mohism to surpass Confucianism." Tian Mou frowned.


    Merton smiled: "If the things in the world are only in the hands of a few people, these people will easily reach an alliance and monopolize these powers for their own self-interest. This is true of aristocratic families, Confucianism, and even one day, Mohism. However, thousands of people and thousands of faces, how can people be the same? Aristocratic families cannot control people in the world, even if the five hopes and seven surnames are at the height of the sun This is the strength of Mohism to contend with the five hopes and seven surnames. Similarly, Confucianism can rely on the imperial examination to win over some people who study. Once all people in the world can study, the real winners will naturally flow to Mohism, or even the other hundred schools. That is the time when Mohism is booming. "


    "I''m looking forward to that day!" Tian Mou''s eyes brightened. Now he understood Merton''s intention and didn''t have so much aversion to the cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism.


    "It will be realized. The world will eventually belong to all people, the monopoly of a few people will eventually be broken, the high five hopes and seven surnames will fall into the world, and the Confucian supremacy will become history," Merton firmly said.


    "It will!"


    Tian Mou repressed the surging in his heart, and his words changed.


    "However, since mohou wrote three poems for Confucianism, we can''t favor one over the other. The column of Mohist poetry is empty!"


    Merton smiled, took out a manuscript from his arms and handed it to Tian Mou. He said, "the ink magazine should leave enough space for this issue of poetry column."


    When Merton left, Tian Mou, who had just claimed his identity, couldn''t wait to open the manuscript. He was surprised to find that Merton gave him a long poem.


    "If the Mohists forget, with the lead movable type printing, it''s no problem to double the length of the poem." Tian Mou said proudly.

 Chapter 977

    It has to be said that Kong Yingda''s action was very fast. One by one, the children of the Kong Family attacked all around and went straight to the major Booksellers in Chang''an city. When they saw the published current books, it goes without saying that they went crazy to sweep the goods directly.


    "The Kongs are crazy! They bought so many books!" a merchant stared at the Kongs'' children who kept carrying books from one side of the bookstore.


    "The Confucius family is a scholarly family, so it''s understandable to buy books, but most of the books in the Confucius family are single copies. I''m afraid you don''t need to buy these common books on the market. You can''t use so many." a bookseller was happy, but he couldn''t help wondering that the Confucius family doesn''t lack books. They just need books, and they don''t need to buy 20 copies of each book.


    One of the children of the Confucius family shook his head and said, "this is the order of the wine worship Lord, and we are also ordered to do it! As long as there are engraved books in your bookstore, 20 copies of each book will come."


    Time is also extremely urgent for Kong Yingda. For the books already on the market, he directly adopts the simplest way, that is, buying and collecting all the books that can be bought on the market, which saves half of his effort. As for the single book in the Kong family''s collection, it is the books that need pottery movable type printing.


    The bookseller couldn''t help breathing. This is a big business! Once their engravings are printed, they are idle. It''s nothing to print 20 copies at a time, but they can''t stand a large amount!


    "Please rest assured that the villain will certainly give the Kong family the most favorable price." the bookseller quickly said in a loud voice. It was the Confucius house after Kong Sheng. If it was spread, it would be good for the reputation of his bookstore.


    "And twenty copies of these books!" the children of the Kong Family frowned, pointing to a row of books.


    The bookseller immediately wondered, "this is a Mohist book!"


    As we all know, Confucianism and Mohism don''t deal with each other. He doesn''t want to offend the Confucius family.


    The children of the Confucius family said boldly, "not only Mohist books, but also books from all schools of thought, the Confucius family wants them!"


    "Ah!" the bookseller was stunned and had to do so. He loaded hundreds of books into the carriage of the Kong family.


    However, this is only a portrayal of a bookseller in Chang''an city. Then the children of the Kong Family attacked everywhere, almost emptied the inventory of all Booksellers in Chang''an City, leaving a long list of book orders. The Booksellers in Chang''an City were in a carnival. This behavior of the Kong family was spread wildly in Chang''an city.


    "Kong sacrificing wine is the wealth of the whole family to buy books." someone quietly calculated an account for Kong Yingda. I''m afraid these books are worth more than half of the wealth of the Confucius family, which is a crazy behavior for anyone.


    "What does the Confucius family want?" Zheng Chang frowned as he watched the carts of books pull into the Confucius house.


    Now the five surnames and seven hopes focus on the Confucius and Mo houses. Kong Yingda''s strange behavior of buying a lot of books naturally attracted his attention.


    "It''s said that the Kong family is in a hurry to seek medical treatment this time. As long as it is a Book of hundreds of schools, they will not let go. Now the Kong family has bought at least thousands of books." Zheng Bodao, although the price of books has dropped sharply since the birth of block printing, thousands of books, 20 copies each, which is close to tens of thousands, is also an appalling number.


    "It''s just a few broken books. What big waves can you turn over?" Zheng Chang sneered.


    "Young master, it''s inevitable, and according to the gossip of villains, the Confucius government also bought a lot of paper and ink. As for the purpose, we still don''t know." Zheng Bo worried.


    "The scholar rebelled and failed in three years. Relying on a few books and a few pieces of paper is like fighting against five surnames and seven hopes. It''s just wishful thinking." Zheng Chang said proudly. He wanted to see what tricks the Kong family played in the end.


    After five days, the Kong family finally swept away all the books that could be bought on the market. Looking at the mountains of books in the Confucius house, the whole Confucius house was filled with a strong smell of ink. Kong Yingda couldn''t help but show a knowing smile. The Kong family is a family of scholars, but they have special feelings for the smell of books.


    "Second uncle, has the site selection of the library been completed?" Kong Yingda looked aside and asked Kong Desheng.


    Kong Desheng took a deep breath, showed a look of enjoyment and said, "don''t worry, I''ll do it myself. I''ve already prepared the bookshelf."


    In addition to keeping the books secret, another reason why Confucius first brought them back to Confucius was that the bookshelves in the library were not completed.


    "OK! Now Chang''an City has been bustling, and it''s not easy for the Confucius house to keep them waiting." Kong Yingda said proudly.


    Kong Desheng nodded and said, "after tomorrow, the world will know that the Confucius house is the best Library in the world."


    "Thank you, second uncle!" Kong Yingda said solemnly.


    Kong Yingda, as a sacrifice to the Imperial College, is naturally inconvenient to run the library, and Kong Desheng is the most suitable candidate.


    With Kong Desheng''s order, carts of books were pulled to the prepared shops by night.


    The next day, just after daybreak, the major shops on Zhuque Street began to open, but the door of one shop in the center was closed and the plaque was covered with red silk. The surrounding merchants were not surprised. Shops were transferred and opened every year, and it is common for new stores to open.


    "This is it?" Zheng Chang frowned as he stood in front of the unopened shop.


    Zheng Bo nodded and said, "go back, young master. The books that the Kong family said they bought last night were sent here overnight."


    Although the actions of the Confucius house were hidden, they could not be concealed. They had been staring at the Zheng family of the Confucius house. When they learned that there was a change in the Confucius family, they came to investigate at the first time.


    At this moment, the door of the shop opened with a squeak. Kong Desheng proudly came out and commanded the servants of the Confucius house to tidy up and down. Through the door, Zheng Chang could clearly see rows of bookshelves.


    "Young master, what shall we do?" asked Zheng Bo.


    Zheng Changran smiled and said, "the descendants of Kong Sheng are doing business in the street. For such grand things, my younger generation naturally wants to come forward and offer a congratulatory gift."


    Zheng Chang was very proud. He didn''t expect that the Confucius family would have lost its way and went into business in the street. If it was spread, the millennial reputation of the Confucius family would be destroyed. At that time, if the Confucius family wanted to promote primary school again, countless people would abandon the Confucius family without his help.


    "The younger generation Zheng Chang paid a visit to elder Kong. When the elder came to Chang''an, he once stayed at the Zheng''s house. The younger generation was lucky to witness the elder''s style!" Zheng Chang stepped down from the carriage and walked face-to-face to Kong Desheng.


    "It''s you, the younger generation!" Kong Desheng raised his eyebrows when he saw Zheng Chang outside the store. Zheng Chang was the legitimate son of the Zheng family. At that time, Kong Desheng had some impressions of Zheng. However, Kong Desheng didn''t think it was him who came to Chang''an city. I''m afraid Zheng Chang was the one who attacked the Kong family behind these days.


    "The younger generation suddenly heard that elder Kong bought an estate in Zhuque street. How dare he be rude and send a congratulatory gift." Zheng open said respectfully.


    Kong Desheng looked at Zheng Chang and couldn''t help comparing with Mohist Zi. Although Mohist Zi didn''t pay for Confucianism, he acted openly and aboveboard, which made people can''t afford any disgust. In front of Zheng open, he acted extremely sinister and disgusting.


    "I don''t need gifts. The Kong family doesn''t charge money for this business!" Kong Desheng said faintly.


    "Don''t take money? Master Kong laughed again. There is no business without money in this world. Master Kong can make the younger generation open their eyes!" Zheng Chang laughed at his speech.


    Kong Desheng said calmly, "in that case, you''ll wait and see!"


    Zheng Chang sneered and raised his eyebrows slightly. Zheng Bo immediately left. Soon, Kong Sheng''s business soon spread all over Zhuque street, and more and more people came.

 Chapter 978

    "It''s really after the Kong family!" the onlookers exclaimed when they saw the huge Kong Family logo outside the shop.


    "Could it be that the Confucius family runs a bookstore? It is said that the Confucius family swept through the major Booksellers in Chang''an city a few days ago and bought no less than tens of thousands of books." a merchant remembered the strange behavior of the Confucius family spread in Chang''an city a few days ago and finally got an explanation today.


    "It''s ridiculous to do business after Kong Sheng. Isn''t the preferential treatment given to the Kong family by the imperial court enough? The Kong family is still so greedy for money!" a Confucian student angrily scolded.


    All dynasties have treated the Confucius family with great preferential treatment. Among them, the owners of the Confucius family in all dynasties will be granted the title of Lord Yansheng, which will be handed down from generation to generation. At the same time, the court will give a lot of land to support the Confucius family. After that, the Confucius family will naturally be interested and willing to be a mud Bodhisattva, strive to maintain the reputation of the Confucius and become a symbol of Confucianism.


    "The Confucius family''s reputation has been cleared for thousands of years, and I''m afraid it will be destroyed today." a scribe looked up to the sky and sighed with pain.


    With more and more people, many people pointed and sneered at Kong Desheng. Seeing all this, Zheng Chang couldn''t help showing a trace of pride.


    Kong Desheng was expressionless, still determined to go his own way, waiting for the arrival of auspicious time.


    "The auspicious hour has come!" shouted a member of the Kong family as the sun rose.


    Kong Desheng couldn''t help laughing at the crowded citizens who surrounded the store. Zheng children thought that this plan could embarrass the Kong family, but they didn''t know that the more people he invited, the more they humiliated themselves. Finally, they only made wedding clothes for the Kong family.


    "Thank you for coming. Kong is very grateful." Kong Desheng bowed his hands around and waved his hand, ready to unveil the plaque row of the store.


    "Wait a minute!" suddenly Zheng Kuang shouted, reaching out to stop the Kong family from unveiling.


    "Master, you should think about it. This is the reputation of the Kong family for thousands of years. If this plaque is unveiled today, there will be no room for turning back. I have no talent and admire the name of Kong Saint all my life. I really can''t bear to have the name of Kong Saint tarnished." Zheng open said with a high moral integrity.


    "However, Confucius is our supreme master. Although Confucius is a descendant of the Confucius family, we should not wantonly damage the reputation of the Supreme Master." Confucian scholars were filled with righteous indignation.


    "If Master Kong could have known his way back, we would have regarded it as never happened and let bygones be bygones!" Zheng Chang said proudly when he saw the excitement of the crowd.


    Kong Desheng sneered: "no one is more obliged to maintain the reputation of our ancestors than the descendants of the Kong family. I don''t need you to teach me. I''m the only one who will bear all the consequences."


    At that moment, Kong Desheng waved his hand, and the red silk fell, revealing three big characters - library!


    "Library!"


    "The Kong family really did not start a bookseller business again."


    The crowd was in an uproar. They had an answer to their previous actions combined with the Kong family, but the scene in front of them confirmed their guess.


    "The Kong family is seeking their own death!" Zheng Changleng snorted. He didn''t care if the Kong family wanted to die. Just now he was resolute in his righteousness to dissuade Kong Desheng. If it came out in the future, it would be a good name.


    Kong Desheng Lang said, "there are thousands of books carefully collected by the Kong family in this library, including all the books that can be bought in Chang''an city."


    People suddenly realized why the Kong family bought books in Chang''an city a few days ago.


    "In addition, the thousands of books collected by the Kong family for thousands of years are also open to Chang''an students." Kong Desheng broke another piece of news.


    "Tens of thousands of books in the Kong family!"


    All the onlookers were in an uproar, especially some Confucian scholars. You know, the books collected by the Kong family for thousands of years are even unique treasures, which can be rarely seen by ordinary people!


    "The Confucius family is willing to take out such a precious single book. If it is accidentally damaged, I''m afraid the gain is not worth the loss!" the people said one after another. As book lovers, they naturally know how precious the single book treasures are.


    "Of course, these are rubbings," Kong Desheng said to the crowd.


    "I see." people suddenly realized that even the rubbings were extremely rare.


    "Don''t mention Kong Yingda. Even if the Kongs in Qufu spent all their money, I''m afraid it would be difficult to print tens of thousands of books." Zheng Chang disagreed and snorted coldly.


    However, next, Kong Desheng''s words made him instantly face up and say, "now time is pressing. The Confucius house has just printed nearly 100 rare copies of the Han Dynasty for you to borrow. But you can rest assured that within half a year, the Confucius family will publish all 10000 books in their collection, so that people all over the world can see them."


    "A hundred rare copies of the Han Dynasty!" the onlookers couldn''t help breathing, and some book lovers couldn''t wait.


    Kong Desheng couldn''t help smiling. He had to say that movable type printing was indeed terrible. In addition, the Kong Family specially selected books with a small number of words to print. Less than the new year''s day, nearly 100 books were printed under the rush of work overnight. Of course, the small number of each book was also one of the reasons.


    "Since it''s the business of the Confucius family, our younger generation should strongly support it, and Xiaosheng is also a book lover. He admires his predecessors'' masterpiece. I don''t know how to sell this rare book of the Han Dynasty." Zheng Chang deliberately said.


    Kong Desheng said proudly, "Zheng''s children, you underestimate the Kong family. The Kong family doesn''t sell books, only borrow them, and don''t charge any money."


    "Borrow books!"


    "No money!"


    The onlookers were stunned.


    "That''s right! Anyone who studies all over the world can come to the library to borrow three copies. The duration of each borrowing is one month. You only need to return them when they are due. If you don''t finish reading them, you can renew them for another half a month for free without charging a penny!" Kong Desheng Lang said.


    "Three books for free for a month and a half!"


    There was an uproar among the scholars and scholars around. Everyone in the world said that they traveled thousands of miles and read thousands of books. However, many people traveled thousands of miles in the world, but not many people read thousands of books. The reason is that it is not easy to borrow or buy so many books. Now the library opened by the Confucius family makes it easy for people all over the world to achieve this goal, And it can be achieved without spending a penny.


    "The Kong family is worthy of being the queen of Kong Sheng. Today''s move must go down in history! Xiaosheng apologized to elder Kong." a scribe solemnly bowed down to Kong Desheng.


    "Offend!" many scholars are even more ashamed. Before, they also scolded Kong Desheng for doing business and tarnishing Kong Sheng''s reputation. However, the library does not need a penny to open to the world. Even Kong Sheng''s resurrection will praise him.


    "What''s wrong with you defending the name of your ancestors? Kong is very grateful. It''s too late for the Kong family to open a library today. To inherit the legacy of their ancestors, teach without discrimination, and make books readable for all people who want to learn. Today, the library is opened and you can choose the books in the library." Kong Desheng hugged the people and let the door open.


    "Good!"


    In an instant, people who could not wait poured into the library and couldn''t wait to choose the books they wanted to buy, but they were always reluctant to start. A month and a half was enough for them to read through the books.


    As people poured into the library, Zheng Chang was left standing there blankly. In addition to good education, another important reason why the children of the aristocratic family are excellent is that the family has a large collection of books, which is far better than the children of the poor in both knowledge and knowledge. This is the only magic weapon for the children of the aristocratic family to maintain their advantages. However, the Confucius family opened a library, It can enable the children of poor families to read countless books without spending money, and even surpass the children of aristocratic families in number.


    If the previous promotion primary school trained children, it would take more than ten years for these children to grow up. In this way, it would still leave more than ten years of time buffer for the aristocratic family. The establishment of the library will directly give the aristocratic family a drastic draw. Instead of waiting for the children to grow up slowly, it can directly increase the knowledge of the children of poor families in the world and even surpass the children of aristocratic families, Let the children of the aristocratic family face the challenge of the poor children immediately.


    "Young master, it''s not good!" at the moment, Zheng Bo hurried forward and handed Zheng gondola a a Confucian journal, his face coagulated.


    Zheng Chang took a look and saw that there were three poems in the poetry column of the Confucian journal.


    "There is a golden house in the book, and there is a beautiful face in the book......"


    "....... when persuading you to cherish your youth."


    "Knowledge is power, knowledge is wealth!"


    Zheng Chang recited silently in his heart, but in his ears, there were respectful chanting voices in the library. Obviously, this poem was also posted in the library. Such inspirational persuasive poems, coupled with a library that can read 10000 volumes of books without spending a penny, he can imagine that the whole Chang''an city must set off a frenzied school fever. If he was not a child of an aristocratic family, I''m afraid I can''t stop until I rush into the library to borrow several books.


    The last time the Confucius family reformed the primary school, the aristocratic family plotted against the master and students, which was able to stop it. However, this time the Confucius family opened a library, but Wuwang and Qixing could only stare and do nothing. After all, they could still control the legs of poor children.


    "Young master, look at the signature of the poem!" Zheng Bo reminded.


    Zheng Chang didn''t look at it either. He clenched his teeth and said, "Mozi.


    After all, the only poets in the world who can write such wonderful poems and are used to writing two and a half poems are Mohists, without semicolons.


    However, this is not the worst. The Confucius family opened a library, and the Mohists wrote persuasive poems, which were published in Confucian journals. The information conveyed by this had to make Zheng Chang aware of a worse situation.


    That is, under the strong pressure of five surnames and seven hopes, Confucianism and Mohism began to work together.

 Chapter 979

    As two and a half persuasive poems swept through the literary world of Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city suddenly blew up a style of learning. Countless scholars rushed to the library after hearing the news. They immediately read a book they had longed for for for a long time.


    "I don''t need to copy books anymore!" one of the poor children in white Confucian clothes said excitedly, and many people nodded with lingering fear.


    The rich children have a lot of books in their home. In addition, they can buy books, but they are not short of books to read. The poor children must have books first, and if they can''t afford to buy them, they have to copy them themselves. This is also the reason why the poor children can''t beat the children of the aristocratic family. After all, they don''t even read books. How can they increase their knowledge.


    Now that there is a library, everything has changed. The poor children can own everything that the rich children originally owned. The poor children who don''t need to copy books immediately regard the library as a holy land for study. They have been attracted to the library for a long time, but they have no chance to see famous books, which are readily available in front of them, No longer need to borrow books from wealthy students like before, let alone copy books overnight, wasting paper and pen, and wasting time.


    They crazily absorbed the knowledge of the library, looked at the mountains of books, and suddenly felt like how can Baoshan return empty handed.


    They pick and choose, just like a bear breaking corn. When they pick this and see which is better, they put it back and choose again.


    "It''s a pity that only three books can be selected!" a poor boy was holding three carefully selected books in his hand. When he saw rows of full bookshelves, he couldn''t help feeling painful.


    "What are you reluctant to do? It''s good for me to finish reading these three books in one month. I''ll change other books to read them at that time." the classmate looked at the heart books in his hand and said happily.


    The greatest advantage of the library is that it is not only a large number, but also free. Their poor children can arbitrarily choose books to read. I''m afraid it''s the happiest thing in the world.


    "A month is too long, ten days at most. I''ll integrate these three books and borrow books again!" the poor children looked at the persuasive poems posted in the library and said.


    How precious his youth is. He has fallen behind many children of the aristocratic family. How can he not cherish such a good opportunity now.


    People came and went in the library. Books were quickly borrowed out. After a while, the originally full bookshelves became sparse. Fortunately, Kong Desheng was prepared and bought nearly 20 copies of each book. Whenever there was an empty shelf, there would be a batch of new books to fill in, so as not to let the poor children empty the library.


    Looking at the poor children''s contented borrowing books and leaving, Kong Desheng couldn''t help showing a trace of pride. He has been immersed in learning all his life. It''s a great comfort to see such eager students today.


    "I''m afraid this is the scene pursued by our ancestors, and it has finally come true in the future." Kong Desheng solemnly saluted the statue of Confucius.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What''s the matter? It''s ridiculous that my Confucian journal published the poems of Mohist school." in the Confucian journal, Wei Si''an was angry. He was at odds with Mohist school. He regarded the Confucian journal as his own prohibition. Naturally, he didn''t want to let the Confucian Journal under his control become famous for Mohist school.


    However, Ma, chief editor of the Confucian journal, frowned and said, "back to the owner, Kong Jijiu specially ordered the Confucian journal to leave space for the poetry column, and sent the poetry manuscript at the last moment, and asked us to keep it confidential. The Confucian journal can''t refuse such poetry manuscript. The Confucian journal can''t refuse the request of the Confucius family."


    Weisi settled down in a bad mood, but he couldn''t say a word. Although he supported Confucian journals with a lot of money, the control of Confucian journals was not in his hands, but in the eyes of Confucianism, and the Confucius family was a symbol of Confucianism.


    The Confucian journal could reject his decision, but did not dare to refuse the request of the Kong family.


    "Besides, when the Confucius family sent the poems, they also sent a unique weapon that Confucian journals can''t refuse." editor in chief Ma said with a frozen face.


    "Can''t refuse?" Wei Si''an was almost mad. One on the left couldn''t refuse, and the other couldn''t refuse where to put his face. What he didn''t know was that he thought the Confucian journal was still controlled by the Confucius family?


    Editor in chief Ma did not explain, but picked up a printing plate and sent it to Wei Sian, saying, "please look at this printing plate, my boss,


    Wesan took over and frowned. He saw that the printing plate was full of ink.


    Editor in chief Ma sighed and moved his hand. He saw that the original complete printing plate was evenly divided into several small pieces, each with a small character.


    "This is......" wesan wondered.


    "This is the latest printing technology - movable type printing sent by the Kong family." editor in chief Ma looked at the tiny plates and said obsessed.


    "What''s the power of movable type printing?" wesan wondered


    Editor in chief Ma sighed and said, "the owner knows that Kong''s Library printed hundreds of unique copies of the Han Dynasty."


    Wei Si''an nodded. The Kong Family opened a library, which was the most sensational thing in Chang''an city. Naturally, he knew it.


    Editor in chief Ma shook his head and said, "what the owner doesn''t know is that the Kong family took only a few days from buying paper to printing books."


    "How can this be possible?" exclaimed wesan. It is not impossible to print thousands of books in a few days, but how many engravings do you need to print hundreds of books! It''s impossible.


    "This is the power of movable type printing," said editor in chief ma.


    Seeing editor in chief Ma demonstrating the principle of movable type printing, wesan couldn''t help getting excited. Newspapers and periodicals, unlike block printed books, can be printed repeatedly,


    The newspaper has to be updated every issue. Once the engraving is done, it is useless to use only one issue. The most troublesome thing in the process of printing newspapers and periodicals is engraving, which is also the biggest expenditure consumed by Confucian journals on weekdays.


    The Kongs could print nearly a hundred books in just a few days by using movable type printing. This speed is tailor-made for Confucian journals. With this, Wei Sian is sure that Confucian journals can turn losses into profits.


    "I''m afraid it''s not from the Confucius family." Wei Si''an calmed down and frowned. He didn''t believe that the Confucius family, the leader of Confucianism, would calm down to study the secret technology of printing. It looked like a strong Mohist style. In addition, it was a Mohist poem printed by movable type printing, which made him doubt.


    "The master is wise. This is indeed the Mohist ink skill, which the Kongs did not hide. I know that the master and the Mohists have a quarrel, but this movable type printing technology is specially designed for newspapers and periodicals. I think it was designed by the Mohists to help the Kongs fight against the five surnames and seven hopes. With this technology, the newspapers and periodicals do not need to wait for another ten days and a half months, as long as the Confucian journal is willing It''s not impossible to issue an issue every day. If the owner abandons it because of a little rift, I''m afraid the Confucian journal will surely be left behind by the ink journal, "said Ning, editor in chief of Ma.


    "So, I''m going to bow to the Mohist family." Wei Si''an blushed. Originally, he didn''t deal with the Mohist family, but now he asked to come to the Mohist family. How can he get down.


    Editor in chief Ma sneered: "how can I let my boss bow to the Mohist family? Now the Mohist family is forced by the five surnames and seven hopes. It is already a grasshopper after autumn. Once the Mohist village goes bankrupt, what else can Mohist family do? At that time, based on the relationship between the Wei family and the five surnames and seven hopes, this movable type printing is not in the bag of Confucian journals."


    When Wei Si settled down, he laughed and said, "yes! The Mohist family is in a precarious situation. How dare you come to trouble the Wei family! I just used the movable type printing technique of the Mohist family today. What can it do to me?"


    Editor in chief Ma nodded with a smile. He didn''t ask Wei Si''an to bow to the Mexican family, but worried that Wei Si''an would not use movable type printing because of his good face.


    With a big hand, Wei Si''an said, "isn''t it just firing some pottery? The Wei family is going to invite the best Potter in Chang''an city to use movable type printing in the shortest time. I don''t believe that the Mohists dare to make trouble."


    "The host is wise!" chief editor Ma said with a smile.


    "Editor in chief, boss! This is the ink magazine of this issue. Please take a look at it quickly!" just when they were satisfied, suddenly an editor of the Confucian magazine came in a hurry with a flustered look.


    "What''s the matter?" wesan frowned.


    The editor of Confucian magazine panicked and said, "Ink magazine has adopted new printing technology. If Confucian magazine doesn''t follow up, I''m afraid it will have no power to return to heaven."


    "Isn''t it Tao Huo? You haven''t seen it." chief editor Ma frowned.


    "No! The printing technology is smaller and clearer than Tao movable type!" the editor in chief of Confucian magazine unfolded the ink magazine in his hand and put it in front of them. He saw that the font of this issue of Ink magazine was as big as text, but it was extremely clear.


    "How is this possible?" editor in chief Ma exclaimed. He had personally tested the Tao Huo characters sent by the Kong family, and the font size was several times larger than that of the ink journal in front of him.


    The editor in chief of the Confucian Journal said reluctantly, "the ink journal has published articles. There are two versions of the movable type printing this time. One is the pottery movable type, which is ten times better than the engraving printing, and is free for the people of the world. The other is the more advanced lead movable type, which is ten times better than the Tao movable type, so you need to buy it from the Mojia village."


    "Mohist is a good schemer!" Wei Si''an angrily said.


    As soon as movable type printing comes out, it will certainly cause heavy losses to booksellers who originally used block printing. Mohist Zi threw out a free pottery movable type to calm public anger, but he controlled the more advanced lead movable type in his own hands.


    "Knowledge is power, and knowledge is wealth!" in chief editor Ma''s mind, he couldn''t help thinking of half a sentence of Mohist poetry printed by Confucian journals. Isn''t that what happened in front of him.


    The expenses of engraving printing newspapers and periodicals are generally divided into engraving, ink, paper, and finally transportation. The lead movable type is durable and will not wear at all. At the same time, the printed font is clearer and smaller, saving a lot of ink and paper. He just glanced at it and found that the number of words in the layout of ink periodicals alone is more than that of the three editions of Confucian periodicals, For the same information, the ink journal uses one piece of paper, while the Confucian journal needs to print three. In this way, the ink journal can save more than half of the freight.


    Only a movable type printing technology can reduce the cost of printing newspapers and periodicals by more than half, which can save wealth!


    Wei Si''an said coldly, "what is it to save ink magazine? The ink family thought they could save the ink village?"


    However, editor in chief Ma shook his head, looked at the bidding headline in the ink magazine and took a deep breath: "no! I think the ink family has found a way to save themselves. The ink family wants to sell Qinglong real medicine."


    "If you sell Qinglong real medicine, you can save Mojia village. Qinglong real medicine has long been the meat of the mouth of five surnames and seven hopes. Looking at the world, which family dares to take over." Wei Si''an said coldly.


    Editor in chief Ma smiled bitterly and said, "the Mo family is not selling to a person or a family, but selling Qinglong real medicine to people all over the world."


    "Sell it to people all over the world!" Wei Si''an wondered where he was.


    "The Mohists divided Qinglong pharmaceutical factory into 500000 shares, each with a consistent amount of money, which can be purchased by everyone in the world. Wuwang and Qixing can affect the aristocratic family, but they can''t control the people all over the world." editor in chief Ma smiled bitterly at the contents of the Mohist magazine.


    Half a million shares is half a million yuan. The MOH family once again interpreted the truth that knowledge is wealth. Who could have thought that a green dragon secret skill could be worth half a million yuan.


    "Let the Mohists escape this time!" Wei Si''an said dispiritedly. If the Mohists earn 500000 yuan, I''m afraid the crisis in the Mohist village will be solved. The five surnames and seven hopes have been arranged for a long time, and the intention of uniting with the world''s aristocratic families to encircle and suppress the Mohists will fail again.

 Chapter 980

    "Members of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory!" when ink magazine was published in Chang''an City, Chang''an city was detonated again,


    If the Confucius family opened a library, it was a feast of knowledge for ordinary people, while the Mohists sold the dry shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, it was a feast of wealth for the people of Chang''an.


    "Qinglong real medicine, which can cure the empress changsun."


    "It is said that Qinglong real medicine is 500 Wen a piece, but the cost is our common green hair bacteria. How much money should it make?"


    "No wonder the people call it liquid gold, and the Mohists call it Qinglong real medicine!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the release of Ink magazine, Qinglong real medicine has once again become a hot topic in Chang''an city. Everyone knows that Qinglong real medicine makes money, but they didn''t expect to have the chance to share this fat cake one day.


    "What is a share!" some people don''t know how to ask.


    "Share means partnership. According to the current folk customs of the Tang Dynasty, it is generally divided into partnership system and personal share system."


    "The partnership system generally means to make money together and share the money equally. The partnership system makes the most money, and the body stock is exclusive to the big shopkeeper. This kind of money is also a lot, but it is much better than working, and there are dividends at the end of the year. As for the stock, I''m afraid it means partnership, but the mojiazi seems to have a lot of partners this time, and he even wants to partner with 500000 people." a merchant exclaimed, Such a partnership is indeed shocking, but it does not hinder people''s understanding.


    "Isn''t it that we are doing business with mojiazi?" a citizen was surprised.


    "It seems that''s what I mean!" the merchant thought and nodded.


    "And such good things?" there was an uproar. One was Qinglong real medicine called liquid gold, and the other was mojiazi who turned stone into gold. It was unreasonable for Qinglong pharmaceutical factory not to make money! Many people are excited. If they buy members of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, they will not sit down and collect money.


    Who doesn''t envy the wealth myth of Mojia village? However, these wealth can only be enjoyed by the villagers of Mojia village, and others can only envy. Now, mojiazi has even divided Qinglong pharmaceutical factory into several shares, so that an ordinary person can also have the opportunity to buy them. How can people not be excited to get on the wealth express of Mojia village.


    "Don''t forget that the Mo family has offended the five surnames and seven hopes. The Mo family can''t protect themselves. Are you sure you can make money!" some people don''t like the Mo family and sing bad.


    "What if the money is wasted? Ink magazine said that this is not saving money. If you buy it, you can''t return it and can only resell it." some citizens were worried.


    "Ha ha, five surnames and seven hopes may be able to block any product in Mojia village, but they can''t block Qinglong real medicine. Countless people in the world waiting to use this medicine to save their lives, if there is any mistake, they will find five surnames and seven hopes to work hard!" a knowledgeable citizen shouted.


    Suddenly, everyone nodded. Qinglong real medicine is related to countless human lives. Even Wuwang and Qiwang dare not say they can''t use it. Once they block it, their hypocrisy will be exposed. Who else in the world will convince Wuwang and Qiwang.


    "Yes, so Qinglong real Medicine Co., Ltd. is a hen laying golden eggs. We can''t miss it. I happen to have some spare money, but I don''t know where to buy it?" an old citizen asked.


    "Of course, it''s Mojia village bank. All financial transactions in Mojia village should be handled by him, and the stock of Qinglong real medicine is no exception." the merchant affirmed.


    The merchant guessed right. At the moment, the Mojia village bank is indeed the place where the Mojia village bank issues shares. One is the miraculous effect of Qinglong real medicine, and the other is the name of mojiazi, which has long confirmed the value of the shares of Qinglong real medicine. A large wave of Changan citizens once again rush to the outside of the Mojia village bank to buy Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, The long queue of citizens who bought Qinglong real medicine stocks even exceeded the crowd running.


    Many citizens who came to run were stunned and looked at the team with real gold and silver around them. Zhang Er couldn''t touch the monk. Didn''t everyone come to withdraw money? How suddenly the painting style changed! Another person came to Mojia village bank to deposit money.


    After the people who ran the bank knew about the situation and hesitated for a moment, they quietly joined the ranks of buying Qinglong real medicine stocks. In a moment, the original crowd rushed to run the bank, and the ranks who wanted to run became sparse. Fewer and fewer people took money, while more and more people spent money to buy Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. Once again, the income of Mojia village bank exceeded the expenditure, The bank, which had bottomed out, was replenished again.


    "Merton really has no empty words! The originally unsolved run crisis has been solved so neatly." Shen Hongcai looked at the fewer and fewer runs outside the Bank of Mojia village and took a heavy breath of relief.


    As Merton said, although the five surnames and seven hopes are rich and powerful, there is another place in the world where the wealth is more than a hundred times. This is the people, and it is also the gap of aristocratic family power.


    Outside the Bank of Mojia village, Zheng Chang looked pale at the long team of stock buyers. The momentum of five surnames and seven hopes was carefully raised, but it was so easily broken by the Mojia Zi.


    Once there is no bank run in Mojia village and 500000 yuan of money flows back, Mojia village will come back to life, and the layout of five surnames and seven hopes will be paid off.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Almost, almost this time." Zheng Bo sighed. He had already determined that the current bank of Mojia village bank would not survive today. As for the change of seller''s property, Wuxing Qiwang had already prepared this move to ensure that no one in Chang''an city was willing to take over.


    But who could have thought that the Mo family had a unique idea. They divided the members of Qinglong real medicine into one and sold it to ordinary citizens. They took five surnames and seven hopes as a surprise. Yes, I lost again this time! "


    Zheng opened his eyes and said nothing. Originally, the five surnames and seven hopes were like a rainbow, pushing the Confucius family and the Mohist family. But who can change? In a twinkling of an eye, the Confucius family created a library with endless books to read. The rise of the poor family is a foregone conclusion, and the crisis of the aristocratic family arrived ten years ahead of schedule.


    Now the Mohists have gathered a lot of wealth again. Like a dragon at sea, I''m afraid it''s very difficult to subdue it.


    However, no matter what the reason, at least in his hands, Zheng Chang could not get rid of the relationship, but what he didn''t expect was that the five surnames and seven hopes had been foolproof, but he didn''t expect to be defeated in the hands of those mud legs among the people.


    "No, we haven''t lost yet!" Zheng Bo firmly said.


    "Please teach me!" Zheng opened his eyes with a trace of hope.


    Zheng Bo calmly said, "although there is movable type printing, it takes ten years for the Confucius library to open the whole Tang Dynasty, and the Mohist school is the same. Although the Mohist School abandoned the Qinglong real medicine in exchange for a chance to breathe, as long as the goods in the Mohist village can''t be transported out, the Mohist school still can''t escape the fate of bankruptcy and the control of five surnames and seven hopes."


    "OK! Mozi will make you proud for a while." Zheng Chang said with hatred.

 Chapter 981

    After more than ten years of recuperation, the economy of Datang has long been prosperous, especially driven by the Mohist ink technology in recent years.


    Chang''an city is the economic center of the Tang Dynasty. The people are generally rich. Maybe they don''t have a few million possessions, but it''s easy to take out ten and twenty at once.


    The bottom line of producing Qinglong genuine medicine is Wanguan money. For ordinary people, it is impossible to do in a lifetime, and they can''t enjoy such dividends,


    Now the Mohists have given them this opportunity. As long as you always have money, you will have the opportunity to take shares in the partnership. After Qinglong real medicine makes money in the future, it will pay dividends every year. Such a good thing is not seen in a thousand years.


    The Mohists threw peaches at it, while the people of Chang''an City rewarded it. This wealth feast once again showed the world how terrible the folk wealth of the Tang Dynasty is.


    In just five days, a large number of Chang''an people lined up to deliver silver to the Bank of Mojia village. Such a large-scale gathering of wealth has once again witnessed the ability of Mojia Zi.


    "Miscalculation!"


    The five surnamed Qiwang sighed with a sigh. In order to have regarded Qinglong real medicine as something in their bag, other aristocratic families naturally did not dare to eat it. As a result, everyone knows that Qinglong pharmaceutical factory is valuable, but no one dares to bid. They never thought that the Mexican family would do the opposite, directly invite ordinary people to take shares and instantly obtain a lot of wealth.


    "The owner is wise!"


    In the Mojia village bank, Shen Hongcai looked at the boxes of money sent into the bank and couldn''t smile.


    "That''s the love of the people in Chang''an, and the students are ashamed this time!" Merton said with a bitter smile. This time, the people in Chang''an bought the shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. However, in addition to being so strong and trusted by the people, how can Merton not be moved in his heart? After all, the quotation of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory is not low, which is 500000 yuan.


    "Mohism treats people with sincerity. The people of Chang''an trust Mohism and have their own destiny." Shen Hongcai lamented that Mohism has always been the spokesman of the people at the bottom, and the people at the bottom have not failed Mohism and become the strongest supporter of Mohism.


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "how many shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory have been sold now?"


    "Nearly half, about 250000 shares," Shen Hongcai said.


    250000 shares, that is, 250000 yuan. The Mojia village bank receives an average of 50000 yuan a day, which is faster than robbing money. The entry of this money into the account can not help enrich the bank and solve the run crisis.


    "Now that the run crisis has been lifted, the remaining shares will not be sold," Merton waved.


    "Don''t sell?" Shen Hongcai was reluctant at once. It''s all real gold and silver! For the Mojia village bank, which is short of money, he wants more money, the better.


    Merton nodded. Stocks and other advanced things should not have appeared in Datang. He was forced by five surnames and seven hopes, so he used the golden finger.


    "Not only will it no longer be sold, but it is also reported that the ink medicine workshop of the Mohist school will also be incorporated into Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, which is regarded as a gift from Mo to the people of Chang''an." Merton solemnly said.


    Mohist is cutting industries that have little to do with Mohist ink technology, and so is the ink medicine workshop. It is just an opportunity to separate from Mohist village. After all, the valuation of a Qinglong pharmaceutical factory is a little high. If you add the ink medicine workshop, you will be more sincere.


    Shen Hongcai solemnly nodded and quickly ordered to go on. After a while, the bank hung up the sold out brand of Qinglong real medicine


    "What, it''s sold out. Isn''t it 500000 shares?" said a dusty Luoyang merchant at the bank window of Mojia village.


    "The biggest reason why you bought the shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory is to do business with my young master. If my young master doesn''t have shares, are you willing? So you can only sell half of the 500000 shares, and the Mohists keep half." a Mohist child explained.


    Many people in line nodded. If Qinglong pharmaceutical factory didn''t have mojiazi, I''m afraid they wouldn''t even look at it. Now mojiazi occupies the majority, which reassures them.


    "So the Mohist son got 250000 shares of Guan out of thin air by covering the white wolf with nothing." the merchant in Luoyang was dissatisfied.


    Mohist children shook their head and said, "of course not. Qinglong pharmaceutical factory contains Qinglong secret skills. Mohist village provides tens of thousands of equipment and venues. My young master incorporated the ink medicine workshop into it and personally supervised Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. Mohist paid no less."


    "Ink medicine workshop!" many people exclaimed one after another. Ink medicine, which is convenient, fast and accurate, has developed rapidly in recent years. It has gradually become used to eliminating traditional medicine making. It is also backed by the huge market of doctors. It can be said that it is valuable. The ink family even incorporated the ink medicine workshop into Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, which immediately increased the value of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory.


    "Ink medicine workshop!" Luoyang merchants are excited. Everyone who has taken ink medicine knows the convenience and quickness of ink medicine, especially the ink hospital in Chang''an Luoyang, which is opened by Mohist ink medicine, and the response is very good.


    "Brother, I don''t know if you can give up your share of Qinglong real medicine." Luoyang merchant suddenly stopped the middle-aged man in front of him. If he was shopkeeper pan of Pan''s restaurant in Chang''an city.


    Shopkeeper pan covered his hands with a thick pile of shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, shook his head with a smile and said, "I''m sorry, I''m also very optimistic about Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. I''m going to rely on it for the elderly. I''m not going to sell it."


    Luoyang merchant greedily looked at the stock in the hands of shopkeeper pan and said, "we don''t come for thousands of miles to buy shares in Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. As long as you are willing to give up your love, I''m willing to increase the price by 10%."


    "Buy with a 10% increase!" many people are in an uproar. One share of the price has always been paid. Luoyang merchants increase the price by 10%. They can earn 100 Wen just by changing hands. I''m afraid this is the most cost-effective business in the world.


    However, shopkeeper pan shook his head firmly and said, "sorry, it''s not about money, but what I don''t want to sell."


    "It''s too little. A certain house will increase the price by 20%." the merchant in Luoyang clenched his teeth and said.


    Many Chang''an citizens suddenly breathed, and many people were excited. They always made 200 Wen when they changed hands, and two yuan when they changed hands. This is a rare good thing in the world! They had been waiting to take shares in Qinglong pharmaceutical factory and wait for mojiazi to make money for them, but who thought that the shares in their hands had begun to make money before Qinglong pharmaceutical factory was completed.


    However, shopkeeper pan was not moved at all. He still refused Luoyang merchants. Luoyang merchants were disappointed


    "I only have three shares, you can either?" a Chang''an citizen said. He was a little cautious and only bought three through money.


    "Yes!"


    Luoyang merchants cut nails and cut off the railway. After that, they directly took out three through 600 Wen silver tickets and handed them to the man. They couldn''t wait to take over the shares in their hands.


    "I have two shares!"


    "I have five shares!"


    "I have eight shares!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Seeing that the merchants in Luoyang were so forthright and took out real gold and silver, many people were so excited that they took away the members of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. Soon, the merchants in Luoyang bought hundreds of shares.


    "From now on, I''ll be a partner with mojiazi." the Luoyang merchant couldn''t help laughing at the stock in his hand.

 Chapter 982

    "Uncle, I don''t want to..." Pan''s nephew looked at the five stock shares in his hand and couldn''t help beating his heart.


    This time, shopkeeper pan came to buy the stock of Mojia village bank, but he was kind enough to take his nephew with him. The nephew of Pan family ruthlessly bought five copies of his wife''s book. Now he can easily make money, so he can''t help feeling excited.


    Shopkeeper pan sneered: "do you think Qinglong real medicine and Mohist pharmaceutical factory make money?"


    "Certainly make money!" Pan''s nephew nodded without hesitation.


    "Do you think mojiazi''s personally supervised workshop makes money?" shopkeeper pan asked again.


    Pan''s nephew thought about the workshops in Mojia village, and nodded again.


    "Since this is a business that will definitely make money, why should we sell it? Apart from others, as long as Qinglong''s secret technology patent is protected for 20 years, Qinglong pharmaceutical''s position will be unshakable. For a business that has been profitable for at least 20 years, you are so short-sighted that you focus on the small profits of 200 Wen. Within a year, these people will definitely regret it," confirmed shopkeeper pan.


    Not only in less than a year, but also in less than three days, the people who originally sold shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory regretted it. A large number of foreign merchants poured into Chang''an city. The shares of Qinglong real medicine rose again and again, and the highest price was close to two through money and one share. Fortunately, there was no concept of stock speculation at this time. Finally, it gradually calmed down. Rao was so that the price per share was stable at about five.


    "Uncle wise!" seeing that the first person to buy stocks regretted, the nephew of the pan family sincerely admired him.


    "They believe in the MOH family. Even if the five surnames and seven hopes are united, they can''t help taking the MOH family. I believe it must be the MOH family this time." shopkeeper pan couldn''t help admiring.


    Five surnames and seven hopes besieged and suppressed the Mohist school. All of them took themselves into the position of the Mohist school. They found that this was a dead end. The Mohist school could not escape the disaster after all, so no one was willing to help the Mohist school. However, who thought that the Mohist School''s divine pen should sell the shares of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory to the people all over the world and take everyone by surprise.


    Fan Fu.


    "The Mohist family is really extraordinary! My father is right to follow the Mohist family!" the eldest son of the fan family sincerely admires his father''s eyes.


    "Hahaha, I''m afraid the workshops in Chang''an city are too late to repent." shopkeeper fan laughed.


    Those workshops stood on the side of five surnames and seven hopes. They bet that Mojia Zi couldn''t make it. They wanted to take the opportunity to rely on the loan of Mojia village bank. Now the crisis of Mojia village bank has been lifted. Coupled with the land and house deeds mortgaged by Shen Hongcai, they may have to look at the face of Mojia.


    The eldest son of the fan family nodded: "It''s said that the Mohist school has heard that if they want to borrow again in the future, they must sign a treaty that the bank can collect the loan in advance. Once the bank finds that the other party is insolvent or malicious arrears, they can urge the payment in advance, otherwise they will sell their collateral to ensure that similar events occur again. I''m afraid these workshops can''t even sign such harsh loan treaties."


    Shopkeeper fan couldn''t help sighing: "at the beginning, the loan Treaty of Mojia village was so loose that you can borrow only by mortgage, and the annual interest rate was only one point. Now this situation says that our businesses are to blame."


    In doing business in the Tang Dynasty, faith was the first. Originally, many merchants did not keep their promises first, and it is not surprising that the Mohist School formulated harsh terms.


    The eldest son of the fan family nodded, but his face darkened. Although those who didn''t keep their promises were condemned, the workshop was saved. Although the fan family adhered to their faith, the fan family''s business was gone. This outcome can''t help but make people sigh.


    "Tell me, master, shopkeeper Xu of Mohist school wants to see you." suddenly, fan''s house was humanitarian.


    "Come on, please!" shopkeeper fan quickly got up and greeted him. He and Xu Jie are old acquaintances. Xu Jie recommended the loan of the fan family at the beginning.


    After the two exchanged greetings, they took their seats.


    "How did brother Xu come to fan''s house in his busy schedule to see fan?" shopkeeper fan bowed his hands after being polite.


    Xu Jie looked at shopkeeper fan and said with a smile, "today Xu came to invite talents for the Mohist school. Mohou is thirsty for talents. Today he specially sent Xu to invite shopkeeper fan to come out of the mountain again."


    "Please be a hero. Brother Xu is joking. Fan has accomplished nothing, and even the fan family''s business firm has not been saved. How can we talk about talents? Thank you for the love of mohou. The villain is ashamed and dare not accept it." shopkeeper fan shook his head and refused. He has long been discouraged and unwilling to be oppressed by powerful people,


    Xu Jie said mysteriously, "brother fan, don''t rush to refuse first. It''s not too late for you to refuse when you listen to where the Mohists let you take charge."


    "I''d like to hear it in detail!" shopkeeper fan also said curiously.


    "Qinglong pharmaceutical factory!" Xu Jie said bluntly.


    "Wow!" the fan family''s father and son were shocked. There was a lot of noise about the shares of Qinglong real medicine these days. They even heard about their leisure Fu at home, but they never thought they had the opportunity to take charge of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory.


    "I heard that this pharmaceutical factory is supervised by mohou himself?" shopkeeper fan didn''t understand.


    Xu Jie smiled and said, "mohou Rili Wanji, where can manage so many industries? Moreover, shopkeeper fan adheres to his faith and would rather sell industries than support Mohist village. Mohist will not treat real friends badly."


    Qinglong pharmaceutical factory has just been built, and shopkeeper fan just closed fan''s firm. He is the most suitable candidate.


    The eldest son of the fan family can''t help feeling excited. Everyone knows the value of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. It''s a giant compared with the fan firm before manager fan. The two can''t be compared. If his father can take charge of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, the fan family will even be more brilliant than in the future.


    However, shopkeeper fan can''t help frowning. After all, he owns his own business and now works for others, which makes him embarrassed.


    "Sorry, fan has no habit of working for others." manager fan refused directly.


    Xu Jie sighed in his heart. He naturally knew the mentality of shopkeeper fan. He was proud of the collapse of Xu''s firm. The difference is that he was desperate at the beginning and was about to be oppressed and sold by the king''s family. Just when the Mo family appeared, he went to the Mo family, but shopkeeper fan was different. He withdrew all over and had enough money to lay the foundation, Ordinary conditions could not move him.


    However, this time Xu Jie came prepared and said with a smile: "brother fan misunderstood. This time, brother fan didn''t work for Mojia village, but for himself."


    "Work for yourself?" shopkeeper fan frowned and didn''t understand.


    "This time, the Mojia village has been reformed. All the big shopkeepers of the workshop take their own shares and issue top shares. With the scale of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory, if shopkeeper fan has top shares, he will become the owner of Qinglong pharmaceutical factory and may not be worse than brother fan''s business." Xu Jie''s voice is gentle, but it explodes in shopkeeper fan''s mind like a thunder.

 Chapter 983

    "Mohou is really willing to pay for top stocks." shopkeeper fan murmured. As a famous businessman in Chang''an City, he naturally knows the temptation of top stocks. His ability in business owners is also strong and weak, and so is the shopkeeper. If he meets a strong boss and a weak shopkeeper, the big shopkeeper under his command will naturally obey orders.


    Of course, the owner is weak and the shopkeeper is strong. The industry depends on the support of the shopkeeper under his command. The master is weak and the servant is strong. It was not a good thing for a long time, so the owner will promise to pay dividends to the shopkeeper under his command. This is the origin of the top stock. The top stock is not absent in Chang''an City, but it is fengmaolin corner. Even he was reluctant to give the top stock to the shopkeeper under his command.


    But Mojia Zi distributed top stocks to all the shopkeepers in Mojia village, which is a big deal! It is conceivable that every workshop in Mojia village is the top workshop in Chang''an city. It must be a high number.


    Xu Jie smiled and said, "the owner''s mind is not you. I can imagine. He not only let ordinary people take shares in the partnership, but also gave me and other shopkeepers'' shares. At the same time, he also issued partner shares to all the guys in Mojia village. In the partnership shares that can be divided by the guys who have been in Mojia village for more than three years, the longer the years, the more contributions, and the more shares."


    "Dude!"


    Shopkeeper fan suddenly exclaimed. If he had heard of the stock in Datang, the man stock was a pioneer in history. Since ancient times, he had never heard that any owner would pay dividends to the man.


    "Even Qinglong pharmaceutical factory has?" shopkeeper fan felt his heart pounding and asked aloud.


    Xu Jie nodded and said, "that''s natural, but if the guys of Qinglong pharmaceutical want to get the guys'' shares, I''m afraid they''ll have to wait three years."


    "Not to mention three years, even ten or eight years, some people are willing to wait." manager fan murmured.


    As a businessman who has been engaged in business all his life, he understood the power of the buddy stock when he thought about it. Once the buddy can enjoy dividends again, their interests are connected from the owner to the shopkeeper and the waiter. Naturally, they work together to create brilliance. How can such a workshop not be daunting? Shanxi Merchants in future generations are so brilliant, Top stocks and buddy stocks are indispensable.


    "I wonder if this sincerity can move shopkeeper fan." Xu Jie said with a smile.


    "Mohou''s talent is so rough that fan is really impressed. Thanks to mohou''s love, fan should be respectful rather than obedient." shopkeeper fan solemnly said.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Top stock, man stock!"


    The people in Chang''an city are numb. The situation in Chang''an City has changed in recent days, and explosive news wave after wave. This time, the news of shopkeeper top stock and waiter stock in Mojia village makes Chang''an City boil again.


    "Even the clerks can pay dividends! The Mojia Zi is really rich." in the pan restaurant, shopkeeper pan smacked. They hired the clerks and only wanted to squeeze the clerks as much as possible. It is common for them to work more and pay less money. However, the Mojia Zi did the opposite. The wages of the clerks in Mojia village are high, and they even paid the clerks who have been working for more than three years, This is incredible.


    "It''s nonsense to be so indiscriminate!" some old merchants came to dinner angrily. In their business, they have always pursued the exploitation of buddies. The move of the Mohist school makes them extremely embarrassed, and it''s hard to bring their buddies.


    "If you can reach the level of Mohist school, you won''t stay in this store all your life. Mohist School pursues both love and love, and the top stock and waiter stock let everyone be one with the owner, which is the best embodiment of Mohist School''s concept." a scholar retorted. After people analyzed Mohist School''s behavior, they found that although Mohist School''s move is abnormal, it is not without trace, The combination of Mohist''s concept of universal love for sages and Mohist''s consistent behavior is probably the deepest application of Mohist''s concept.


    "I think it''s a good move for Mojia Zi. With top stocks and buddy stocks and one mind from top to bottom, this business philosophy is unique, and it''s not too much to call it Mojia." manager Pan Lang said.


    "Ink merchant!"


    Many people of insight praised it one after another.


    In this era, the status of businessmen is underground because some businessmen hoard strange things and are not benevolent for wealth. However, some businessmen stick to their credit and do business with Confucian ideas, claiming to be Confucian businessmen.


    Today, mojiazi has re created a new business model. The most typical representative of mojiazi is the partnership stock, top stock and partner stock that have caused an uproar in Chang''an city these days. Everyone is the owner, which makes many merchants in Chang''an City meditate.


    "In my opinion, the Mohist is very skilled. Now the Mohist has offended the five surnames Qiwang. The Mohist village is struggling and in a bad situation. The Mohist is uniting the Mohist village with the top body stock and the man stock. Although I still don''t like the Mohist, it''s not so easy for the five surnames Qiwang to make the Mohist give in." an old man said wisely.


    Those who heard it nodded one after another. As we all know, most of them broke through from the inside. However, now Mozi has twisted the top and bottom of the Mozi village into one heart with a few shares. I''m afraid it''s ten times more difficult for five surnames and seven hopes to make Mozi yield.


    "The Mohist family is worthy of the Mohist family." shopkeeper pan took a deep breath. I''m afraid anyone in the position of the Mohist family can''t return to the sky, but the Mohist family has even made clever moves, from losing one after another to stabilizing their position. It can be said to be quite difficult.


    Pan''s nephew quietly came to shopkeeper pan. He was guilty and wanted to talk.


    "Tell me what''s the matter!" shopkeeper Pan said impatiently. He was feeling the business knowledge of Mohism and was interrupted by his nephew.


    The nephew of the pan family summoned up his courage and stammered, "Uncle... Father, look... Do you want to send some... Man shares to my nephew."


    "Fuck off!" shopkeeper Pan said angrily.


    "OK!" the nephew of the pan family ran out in a panic.


    Although the business community in Chang''an knows the benefits of partner stocks, when it''s their turn to make a decision, they find it difficult for them to be as generous as mojiazi.


    However, although no one implemented the waiter stock in Chang''an City, the shopkeeper''s top stock was very popular, even vaguely forming a trend.


    Not to mention Chang''an City, the Mohist village was even more cheered. Since the five surnames and seven looks encircled and suppressed the Mohist village, the atmosphere of the whole Mohist village was extremely dull. Many staff workers resigned one after another, and most of the people left were loyal to the Mohist. Now the news of top stocks and staff stocks immediately cheered the staff in the Mohist village.


    Although there was a legalist Han Zheng in the Mojia village before, the Mojia village has been extremely equal. Although the villagers get along well with a group of guys, there is a gap after all, and the guys are naturally inferior. However, after the news of the guys'' share came, the atmosphere of the whole Mojia village suddenly changed, with one heart and one mind, and the previous depression is no longer lost.

 Chapter 984

    "Young master, five hopes and seven surnames have written to accuse the Zheng family and the young master of doing things badly." Zheng Bo took out a letter and handed it to him with a worried face.


    Zheng Chang was furious and said, "these old guys, do you blame me and Zheng family for this? The Mohist family let ordinary people recognize Qinglong pharmaceutical factory. I can still control the people in Chang''an."


    Zheng Geng thinks that he is conscientious in encircling and suppressing Mohist school. Whenever there is something important, he will ask Zheng Bo, but Mohist school is too slippery, often makes tricks and breaks the situation.


    Zheng Bo couldn''t help sighing: "the young master did his best in this matter, but the Mexican family is too difficult. This time, he doesn''t hesitate to release shares and collect money and people''s hearts. He must fight hard with the five surnames and seven hopes to the end!


    "The MOH family wants to kill us!" Zheng Chang said gnashing his teeth.


    For a long time, he thought that no matter how hard Mohist struggled, it was futile and could not surpass five surnames and seven hopes. However, Mohist couldn''t slip away. He even made many strange moves. Now he even uses shares to operate the whole Mohist village like an iron bucket, asking for money and people.


    I don''t know if the net is broken now, but the fish won''t die for a while and a half.


    "The Mohist family is really difficult. He can already see that Wuwang and Qiwang can''t block the Mohist village all the time. They have been waiting for the flaw of Wuwang and Qiwang and want to keep us waiting." Zheng Boyou said.


    Zheng Kuang nodded and said, "yes, now there is no shortage of people and money. The only thing missing is the market. As long as we increase control, the goods in Mojia village can''t be sold, he is still a fish in the net. Originally, the market in Chang''an Luoyang was too sensitive, and we didn''t dare to act rashly. Now it seems that we can only make a quick decision."


    Although Zheng Chang is a child of an aristocratic family, he is not ignorant and has a cruel face.


    "Young master, this is the foot of the emperor. We can''t act rashly." Zheng said with a calm face. Although their Wuwang and Qixing surnames have been inherited for thousands of years, they are the top aristocratic family, but after all, there is still a giant sitting on their head, that is the emperor.


    Even if he is an ordinary emperor, you should know that Li Er is a cruel man. If he touches his bottom line, I''m afraid he can''t afford to go.


    "That''s natural. I''m not stupid!" Zheng guangbai glanced at Zheng Bo.


    "This time, what we are doing in Chang''an city is serious business. Won''t the emperor allow us to do serious business? Chang''an and Luoyang are the most important markets of Mojia village. Once Mojia village loses these two markets, it must be powerless to return to heaven, and it''s not obedient to be slaughtered by us." Zheng guanglang said.


    "Young master, I want to compete with Mozi to do business!" Zheng Bo looked at Zheng Chang with a shocked face. Mozi led the Mozi village to start from scratch and made the Mozi village the first village in the world in just a few years, which has already proved its business talent. As for his young master, I''m afraid he would want to let him take power in the Zheng family, which is more likely to defeat the Zheng family in just a few years.


    Zheng Chang immediately became angry and said, "young master, making money can''t compare with the Mexican family. Can''t I lose money? This time I''m going to do a losing business in Chang''an and Luoyang."


    "Losing money business?" Zheng Bo was stunned. No one in the world would do a losing business.


    No, no one in the world will do business at a loss unless he has made a big plan. Now they want to plot the Mojia village. What''s the loss at that time? "


    "Young master means to defeat Mojia village even at a loss." Zheng Bo suddenly realized.


    "Yes, I bought a lot of goods from Mojia village a few days ago. I have to say that the goods in Mojia village are indeed of high quality, but there is one of the most fatal shortcomings, that is, they are expensive. If we support a large number of workshops, compete with Mojia village at low prices, and even don''t hesitate to lose money, Mojia village either loses money or has a large backlog of goods, I don''t believe that Mojia Zi can carry it." Zheng Chang said ruthlessly.


    If there are future generations here, I''m afraid they will immediately marvel at it. Zheng Chang''s plan is a common price war and the most lethal weapon in commercial war.


    Zheng Bo was stunned and said in disbelief, "there is ink skill in Mojia village. I''m afraid this plan will kill 800 enemies and lose a thousand!"


    Mojia village has advanced technology. If Wuxing Qiwang and Mojia village fight hard, I''m afraid they will lose more.


    "Don''t say it''s a thousand self losses, even two thousand self losses. The most powerful thing of the five surnames and seven hopes is the deep heritage, and the most important thing is money. With the Millennium heritage of the five surnames and seven hopes, the Mohist school will undoubtedly lose." Zheng Chang said confidently.


    The five surnames and seven hopes have been handed down for thousands of years. The money and wealth in the family can be an enemy country. Even the mojiazi who owns the mojiacun bank can''t compete with it, let alone control the Ziqian family.


    Zheng Boyi thought about the money needed for this plan, but he also knew the power of Zheng Chang''s plan. At the moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "yes, now Qinglong pharmaceutical factory has not been built, and Mohist village is the weakest time. Mohist village wants to drag on, and we, five surnames and seven hopes, want to finish the battle and completely defeat Mohist village."


    "Yes, it''s a successful move. I believe those stingy old guys will be willing to pay. Money is the best in Chang''an and Luoyang." Zheng Chang said confidently.


    As expected, when Zheng Chang passed on the latest plan to the five surnames and seven hopes, all the aristocratic family leaders who had always claimed to be simple, dressed in white and shampoo but still unwilling to change, reluctantly opened the aristocratic family''s Bank and removed boxes of silver blackened due to long-term release. The copper money was even bitten off by insects for a long time, Carts of people pulled to Chang''an city.


    In Chang''an City, if you have money, it''s heaven on earth. If you don''t have money, it''s hell on earth. This truth can be said to be printed in the bones of Chang''an city. Every people in Chang''an City strive to make money. Every Tang people who come to Chang''an City from other places have a dream of making money.


    Therefore, in Chang''an City, everyone is trying to make money, otherwise it is difficult to survive in Chang''an city.


    Of course, if you want to make a fortune, in addition to increasing revenue, there is also saving money. Everyone wants to buy good and cheap goods. Although the goods in Mojia village are good, they are far from cheap. What a sensation it will be when a large number of good and cheap goods appear in Chang''an city.


    "A four wheeled carriage with only a few dollars!"


    "Shudi wine that can be bought in less than 100 Wen!"


    "Steel prices cut down!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One after another, citizens have paid to buy their favorite items for a long time, but they are not willing to give up. Many people are more interested in the goods of Mojia village. However, they still have no resistance in the face of low prices,


    In Chang''an City, all goods produced in the same way as those in Mojia village have been impacted by the price war. For ordinary people, they naturally enjoy this rare discount. However, the upper class people all know that this storm is coming towards Mojia Zi.


    In Chang''an City, a price war is imminent

 Chapter 985

    In any era, price war is the most lethal, and it is a real sword and a real gun... No, it is a contest of real gold and silver.


    Under the subsidy of Wuwang Qixing regardless of financial resources, the price of Chang''an, which has been rising for many years, has fallen for the first time, and even a cliff like decline. However, the decline of goods related to Mojia village is the worst, and even the price of goods has been cut down directly.


    Facing the price war of five surnames and seven hopes without losing money, Mojia village naturally bears the brunt. The products of Mojia village, which originally sold well in Chang''an and Luoyang, can''t be sold immediately. Between Mojia and their own wallet, people naturally know how to choose. After all, who doesn''t want to buy cheap things.


    "Boss, this time, five surnames and seven hopes are too cruel. They even want to pull the Mojia village down at the cost of money." in the Mo house. Xu Jie said with a ashamed face.


    He was in business all his life, and finally suffered a great loss under Zheng Chang''s three board axe.


    "This is a price war. No one has any tricks." Merton shook his head and didn''t blame Xu Jie.


    "Price war! The owner is really wise, and one word hits the essence." Xu Jielang said.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the price war hurts both people and yourself. In those days, the Mojia village also thought about this move, but it was not used because it aroused public anger and isolated the Mojia village from the business community in Luoyang, Chang''an. Now the five surnames and seven hopes take the initiative to provoke the price war. Don''t blame the Mojia village for the workshops in Chang''an city."


    Xu Jie couldn''t help but say in amazement, "what''s the matter with other workshops?"


    Merton smiled mysteriously: "The price war hurts the most people, but the weakest one must hurt the first. Now the big and big five surnamed Qiwang and Mojia village compete. One with strong capital and one with exquisite technology can naturally last a long time, and can occupy a large number of markets at a low price. However, other workshops in Chang''an city are not. They have limited capital and backward technology. In this price war, These workshops must be the first to be eliminated. "


    Merton is well aware of the fierce price war in future generations. He often fights between the first and second in the industry, and the third and fourth are the most injured or even bankrupt.


    "The fire at the city gate will affect the fish in the pond!" Xu Jie suddenly said.


    Sure enough, with the announcement of the full price reduction of Mojia village''s products, the whole industrial community in Luoyang, Chang''an, is in great sorrow. The workshop supported by five surnames and seven hopes has the lowest price. The product quality of Mojia village is the best. Both sides have their own markets, and the market of the middle workshop is the first to be eroded.


    Just a month after the price war, hundreds of workshops in Chang''an Luoyang closed down.


    "As expected, a large number of workshops in Chang''an and Luoyang have closed down." Xu Jie admired. Merton had expected this as early as a month.


    "How''s our situation?" Merton asked solemnly. Now the market of small and medium-sized workshops has been eroded. Naturally, it''s time for the shopping of Mojia village and Wuxing Qiwang.


    Xu Jie said sadly, "back to his boss, although the shipment volume of Mojia village has increased sharply, the profit has decreased significantly, and some workshops have even begun to lose money."


    "Loss!" Merton sighed. The price war is indeed a big killer. Mojia village has the most advanced technology. Coupled with the good brand image of Mojia village, it can still lose money.


    Merton pondered for a moment and said, "from today on, the goods in Mojia village are divided into two categories. One is to use price war and five surnames and seven hopes to compete for the market at any loss, and the other is to take the high-end series. After all, there will always be people willing to buy the best goods in the world."


    "Yes, boss!" Xu Jie nodded and left.


    After Xu Jie left, Merton breathed a sigh of relief. Now the stalemate between five surnames and seven looks has been completed. The next thing depends on who can''t hold it first.


    "Young master, young master Chai came to visit!" Fubo suddenly came to report.


    "Who?" Morton said in surprise.


    "Chai family, master Chai Lingwu!" Fubo said solemnly. Now the Mohist family is in the wind and rain, and the sudden visit of the Chai family makes him a little uneasy.


    Merton was surprised. Now the Mohist village is making friends with the five surnames and seven looks. It''s too late for all aristocratic families to hide from the Mohist family, and the Chai family, as the pillar of the Guanlong aristocratic family, took the initiative to come to the door.


    "Please!" Merton wondered, but he was not rude.


    "Hahaha, I haven''t seen you in a year! Brother Mo is well!" Chai Lingwu came up and saw Morton''s warm face.


    "Thanks to brother Chai, everything is fine. I heard that brother Chai went to the western regions. When the Chai family caravan returned to Chang''an City last month, it caused a sensation in Guanzhong. Even Mo was thunderous." Merton did not boast about this. Datang Honglu Temple sent many envoys to the western regions. The risk of the silk road was greatly reduced and the trade route was unblocked. In addition, Chai Lingwu''s brother was in the western regions. Naturally, the Chai family caravan passed through the western regions and brought back a large number of exotic treasures from the western regions. It can be said that it made a lot of money.


    Chai Lingwu immediately said proudly, "I just rely on brother Mo''s light! If brother Mo hadn''t marched to Tuyuhun in the West and made the Tang Dynasty powerful in the western regions, he also proposed to send envoys to the western regions to open up the business route and receive a compass from brother Mo, otherwise I wouldn''t have such a smooth trip."


    A trip to the western regions completely made the Chai family taste the sweetness. The profits several times and more than ten times simply made the Chai family revel. Chai Lingwu was the second son. Naturally, the title of the Chai family could not be transferred to him, and the family''s industry would naturally be managed by him. The trip to the western regions completely increased Chai Lingwu''s status.


    "That''s brother Chai''s transportation route. There are a lot of aristocratic families in Chang''an City, but only brother Chai dares to take the silk road." Merton complimented.


    "That''s!" Chai Lingwu said proudly. For this, Chai Lingwu was very complacent.


    "The so-called gratitude of dripping water and Yongquan is to specially repay brother Mo''s kindness of helping last year and prepare to order another batch of goods from Mojia village."


    "Order!" Morton frowned. Now all aristocratic families in the world are on the side of five surnames and seven looks. No one is willing to contact the Mohist village. Chai Lingwu took the initiative to come to the door and ask for goods. How can he not wonder that the Chai family is also one of the aristocratic families. He doesn''t believe that the Chai family will be so righteous.


    Chai Lingwu smiled and said, "why, brother Mo doesn''t want to?"


    Morton shook his head and said, "no! Brother Chai, I''m afraid I don''t know the current situation of Mojia village just after returning to Chang''an city. It''s not that I don''t want to, but I don''t want to make brother Chai difficult."


    "Isn''t Zheng chang the child who is causing trouble? Am I afraid of him?" Chai Lingwu sneered.


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "Zheng Chang is naturally not in your mind. However, the five surnames and seven hopes behind him are powerful. I don''t want to involve brother Chai."


    "Five surnames and seven hopes!" Chai Lingwu couldn''t help breathing. Although the Chai family is one of the Guanlong aristocratic families, it''s still not enough to see compared with the behemoth of five surnames and seven hopes inherited for thousands of years.


    Morton said with relief: "brother Chai''s heart has been appreciated. Now the prices of goods from other workshops in Chang''an City have fallen greatly. Brother Chai can choose goods from other workshops. On the contrary, he can save a lot of money. Why not?"


    However, Chai Lingwu shook his head. If he could save money, he would not come to mojiazi for the so-called loyalty. He was not the only caravan to the western regions. If they all chose the same goods, what advantages would he have? In addition, the goods transported during this trip to the western regions must be the best of the best, so as to maximize profits. Looking at the world, I''m afraid only the goods of Mojia village are the best, not to mention that many goods are unique to Mojia village.


    "No, brother Mo is in trouble. I can''t help him. I heard that many brothers just got a board in order to help brother mo. my younger brother is rough and thick. He can carry it even if he gets three more boards. Other brothers help brother Mo sell 3000 Guan goods, and my younger brother is willing to help brother Mo sell 9000 Guan goods." Chai Lingwu said with a righteous look.


    "Brother Chai, this is serious!" Merton was stunned and quietly looked at Chai Lingwu.


    Chai Lingwu patted his chest and said, "it''s natural, and the 9000 goods don''t need brother Mo''s credit. My brother is settled in cash."


    "Nine thousand Guan!" Merton''s eyes flashed, and then he realized that Chai Lingwu was not lying. You know, Chai Lingwu has great power, but I''m afraid he can''t hide it if he doesn''t go through the Chai family and doesn''t use nine thousand Guan''s money.


    The Chai family dares to offend the five surnames and seven hopes. Is it the chance for the Mohist family to break the game.

 Chapter 986

    "But I have a little request," Chai Lingwu said suddenly.


    Merton nodded: "please say that Mojia village has always tried its best to fulfill the requirements of friends."


    "There are thirty-six countries in the western regions. I want thirty-six courses of green dragon real medicine!" Chai Lingwu said solemnly.


    "Green dragon real medicine!" Merton suddenly realized that the reason why the Chai family has the strength to violate the five surnames and seven hopes is the huge interests. The green dragon real medicine in the western regions is not only 500 Wen per piece, but represents one life after another. If the Chai family operates properly, these three or sixteen courses of green dragon real medicine are enough to protect the Chai family from being hindered in the western regions, It will bring endless benefits to the Chai family.


    "Deal, in order to show sincerity, Mo can allow brother Chai to return the goods within a month." Merton Lang said.


    Chai Lingwu laughed and said, "brother Mo still thinks highly of the five surnames and seven hopes. Although the five surnames and seven hopes are powerful, they are out of reach in the western regions. In China, I can get a few more boards at most. What can he do with my Chai family?"


    The Chai family is a relative of the emperor. Naturally, the five surnames and seven hopes dare not do it openly. As for the western regions, there is a gap in the rights of the five surnames and seven hopes. In the face of the interests of several times and ten times, the Chai family is unwilling to compromise.


    After Chai Lingwu left contentedly, Merton couldn''t help but be excited. Chai Lingwu''s 9000 series order was nothing to Mojia village before, but now it has become the first break after Mojia village was surrounded and suppressed by five surnames and seven hopes.


    "The whip is too long!" murmured Merton repeatedly. He vaguely understood the key point of breaking the game, but it was like a fog.


    "Come on, the map!" Merton roared.


    Merton''s voice was so loud that half of the ink house could hear it. Soon Fubo hurried here. After a while, Wu Meiniang came from her study with a huge map. Finally, even the pregnant Princess Changle came slowly.


    "Shua!" the huge map unfolded. Merton looked at a lot of maps beyond this era, although they were slightly rougher than those of later generations.


    The huge map even includes the areas already known by the Tang Dynasty, and even the countries in the western regions. As for the west, although Merton knows the maps of later generations, he does not encourage it, but only writes the words of Da Qin in the blank space of the West.


    "Longxi, Zhaojun, Boling, Qinghe, Fanyang, Xingyang and Taiyuan." Merton marked out the family sites with five surnames and seven hopes one by one and their sphere of influence.


    "What is your husband doing?" Princess Changle said curiously.


    Merton said in a quiet voice, "find another place with five surnames and seven hopes for your husband."


    Princess Changle shook her head and said: "It''s wrong for the prime minister to look for this. The reason why the five surnames and seven hopes are so prosperous is not how much other places are directly controlled, but also the places they indirectly control. After thousands of years of inheritance, the five surnames and seven hopes have penetrated all over the country, including their family children who are officials abroad, officials who marry women in the family, officials who have passed the examination of family origin, and officials who have secretly joined in It is the sphere of influence of the five surnames and seven hopes. "


    Princess Changle is the queen of the royal family. She knows more secrets. As Princess Changle keeps drawing circles on the map, she sees that the map is covered with five surnames and seven looks.


    "Hiss!" Merton couldn''t help but take a breath and looked at the dense circle on the map in surprise. He originally thought that the sphere of influence of Wuxing Qiwang was at most one county and radiated to the north of the Yellow River. But who knows, even the two sides of the Yellow River are under its influence. Although these officials won''t listen to the aristocratic family, they won''t refuse some requests of Wuxing Qiwang this time The village has been wrongfully defeated!


    "What about the south of the Yangtze River? Could it be that Jiangnan aristocratic families also obey the five surnames and seven looks?" Merton raised his eyebrows. The forces of the five surnames and seven looks on the map are all over the north of the Yangtze River, but there is a large gap in the south of the Yangtze River. He couldn''t help but move in his heart. Maybe the place in the south of the Yangtze River is beyond the reach of the five surnames and seven looks.


    Changle shook his head and said, "Jiangnan aristocratic family has its own department. Although there is not much marriage with five surnames and seven hopes, the land in Jiangnan is extremely barren and there is not much market?"


    Merton looked at Changle in surprise. In his memory, Jiangnan was a very rich place. How could it become a barren place in Changle''s mouth.


    With the narration of Changle, Merton suddenly realized that the two sides of the Yellow River have always been the economic center of China. At this time, although the economy in the south of the Yangtze River has improved, there is still a far gap compared with the Central Plains and the north of the Yellow River. The economic center of Datang is the north of the Yangtze River, and the south of the Yangtze River is like the west of later generations.


    Merton sneered and said, "the five surnames and seven looks can be miscalculated. The climate in the south of the Yangtze River is warm all the year round, with plenty of sunshine, evergreen trees, rich precipitation and many rivers. It is an excellent land of fish and rice. The Johor rice just introduced by Datang is enough to triple crops a year and produce several loads per mu. In less than a hundred years, the south of the Yangtze River will surpass the north of the Yangtze River and become the wealth of Datang."


    "Husband means that Mojia village will mainly attack Jiangnan market in the future?" Changle frowned.


    Merton nodded and said, "good!"


    "But far can''t quench near thirst! Even if the market in the south of the Yangtze River is vast, what about the current Mojia village a hundred years later?" Changle shook his head.


    Merton sneered: "If there is no market, create a market. Now Jiangnan is financially backward, but its geographical location is superior, which shows that it has broad market prospects. Under normal circumstances, it may take a hundred years for Jiangnan to catch up with the Central Plains. However, with the help of Mohism, this process can be greatly shortened. Within ten years, as long as Mohism gives full support to Jiangnan, Jiangnan will surely catch up with the Central Plains ¡£¡±


    "My husband wants to develop the Jiangnan market, but will the Jiangnan aristocratic family be willing to support the Mohist family at the risk of offending the five surnames and seven hopes?" Princess Changle hesitated.


    "The most important thing of the aristocratic family is the interests. The reason why aristocratic families around the Central Plains respond to the five surnames and seven hopes and are unwilling to help the Mohist is that helping the Mohist family is not good for them. For Jiangnan aristocratic families who are eager for political and economic status, the Mohist family will go south for hundreds of miles without harm. Naturally, they will take the initiative to cooperate with the Mohist village for their own interests. I don''t believe in Jiangnan aristocratic families Give up the opportunity to develop and expand yourself for the sake of five surnames and seven hopes, "Morton said confidently.


    "You can really try this strategy." Changle''s eyes brightened. Wuwang and Qixing are based in the Central Plains and have a weak influence on the south of the Yangtze River. The south of the Yangtze River may be the only opportunity for Mohism.


    "Mohism needs the market in Jiangnan, and Jiangnan needs Mohist technology. This is a win-win situation. The key to the failure of Mohism this time is Jiangnan." Merton suddenly stood up, looked up to the sky and sighed, spitting out his depression.

 Chapter 987

    "Jiangnan development!"


    When the news of Mohist''s latest policy theory was published on the front page of the Mexican magazine, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation again.


    Merton is mostly handed down in poetry, but there are few game theories. The only game theory that has spread is during the imperial college entrance examination. What has spread is the judicial independence of law, and the young Datang who took the imperial college entrance examination also prefers poetry.


    Now the Mohist school has another game theory, which is related to the direction of the great plan of the Tang Dynasty. Even at the end of the game theory, it is wildly predicted that within a hundred years, Jiangnan will surpass the Central Plains and become the financial and Fu Center of the Tang Dynasty.


    "How is that possible?"


    Jiangnan is just a place of barbarians. It''s a big joke to say that it surpasses the Central Plains. " In the Imperial College, a northern scholar shook his head and laughed.


    For a long time, the Central Plains has been the center of the world. Now mojiazi can''t predict for a hundred years that the central position of the Central Plains will not be guaranteed and will turn to the south of the Yangtze River.


    "How impossible?" the scholar from Jiangnan retorted proudly.


    "The central plains are indeed numerous and rich in land and resources. Mojiazi did not deny it. However, mojiazi also pointed out that Johor rice has been successfully planted in the south of the Yangtze River. It can be three crops a year. The yield of one mu of land in the south is twice that of the Central Plains. Over time, the Suhu ripe world and the two lakes ripe world envisaged by mojiazi can be expected." Another student in Jiangnan argued with the most direct evidence.


    "Johor rice has indeed increased the production of land in the south of the Yangtze River. So what? As far as I know, there are many hills and few plains in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is very little land to be cultivated. If you want to exceed the accumulation of the Central Plains in a hundred years, I''m afraid it''s a joke."


    Jiangnan scholar couldn''t help sneering: "if it''s normal, it''s impossible. However, if there is mojiazi, it''s different. Mojiazi himself made a plan to completely develop the land in Jiangnan and double the area of cultivated land."


    "Terraces!" the scholar in the North said with embarrassment. Terraces are the core of mojiazi''s strategy for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. Everyone knows how to reclaim the plain. However, mojiazi proposed to open up a large number of gentle hills in the south of the Yangtze River like stairs. Although the plot is small, it can''t stand the large scale. You know, there are countless hills south of the Yangtze River.


    "More than that, you still underestimate mojiazi. What mojiazi designed for the south of the Yangtze River is a complete set of models. Johor rice is widely planted in the plains, terraces are opened in the hills, fruit trees are widely planted in the mountains by using the transplantation and grafting technology of farmers, and the village is an original Sangji fish pond." this is simply a road to prosperity for the south of the Yangtze River. " Jiangnan scholars looked at the Mexican magazine''s plan for the development of Jiangnan, which was amazing.


    "Mulberry is planted on the pond ridge, mulberry leaves are used to raise silkworms, silkworm pupae are used to feed fish, and pond mud is used to fertilize mulberry."


    In particular, the Sangji fish pond model has attracted the admiration of many scholars in the south of the Yangtze River. Such a systematic ecological cycle model has been completely summarized for the first time and immediately exudes a strange charm.


    "In this way, there will be no silk fish in the south of the Yangtze River." the classmate exclaimed.


    "I don''t know, far from it. In addition to these, the Mohists decided to bring it back from the western regions to Songjiang mansion, a well-developed cotton variety." Jiangnan scholar said proudly.


    The northern scholar couldn''t help laughing and said, "as far as I know, silkworm breeding is everywhere in the south. The Mexican family lost count this time and wanted to grow cotton in the south."


    Jiangnan scholar looked at him with the eyes of a fool and said with a sneer, "you can''t have missed the poetry column! There are the latest poems of Mohist Zi."


    "Poems of Mohist school?" most of the scholars of the Imperial Academy were shocked by the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. Before they had time to look through them, they couldn''t help looking at the poetry column. You should know that Mohist School''s poetry is unique.


    "Silkworm!" everyone frowned at the name. Who would have thought that the mojiazi wrote poems for the silkworm in the underground.


    "Those who came to the city hall yesterday and came back with tears covered with scarves and covered with Luo Qi are not silkworm breeders." they read in a low voice, and the more they read, the lower their voice.


    "Luo Qi is not a silkworm breeder. You wear silk and satin, but they are all woven by your own silkworm breeding. Similarly, silkworm breeders in the south of the Yangtze River can''t afford silk, and cotton is also in great demand in the south of the Yangtze River!" the scholar in the south of the Yangtze River sneered at the silk clothes on the students of the Imperial College.


    Many students in silk and satin couldn''t help a burst of Hao Ran. I''m afraid they haven''t even entered the silkworm house.


    "With the strategy of the Mohist school, the prosperity of Jiangnan is just around the corner."


    "You know, the focus of Mohism has always been in the north, but the five surnames and seven hopes personally pushed the Mohist family to the south of the Yangtze River." the scholar in the south of the Yangtze River laughed.


    In an instant, a large number of northern scholars were embarrassed. Among them, there were many children with five surnames and seven looks. The foundation of five surnames and seven looks was in the Central Plains, and everyone could see that the move of Mohist Zi was a counterattack against five surnames and seven looks. Once the development of Jiangnan was at its peak, or even exceeded the Central Plains, the status of five surnames and seven looks would be impacted unprecedentedly.


    The northern scholar Leng hum: "I admit that Jiangnan has plenty of water and heat. Johor rice does give Jiangnan a little advantage. However, I heard that although Jiangnan has plenty of water and heat, there are terrible schistosomiasis in the water. Once people get infected with schistosomiasis in the water, it is a disease of death. Are you sure some farmers dare to go into the water?"


    The climate in the south of the Yangtze River is indeed better than that in the Central Plains, but it is not without disadvantages. The climate in the south of the Yangtze River is humid, there are a lot of mosquitoes, ants and animals, and many people are acclimatized. In addition, there are extremely terrible schistosomiasis in their hands. Once they start, they will be infected and finally die in pain. It is said that hundreds of thousands of people in the south of the Yangtze River are infected with schistosomiasis, What a huge number this will be.


    The scholar in Jiangnan suddenly saw the column of doctors in Mo magazine and said, "why is it difficult? The doctors are ready to send Mo Wu, a disciple of Chinese miracle doctor, to Jiangnan to study the cure of schistosomiasis."


    "Mo Wu!"


    The Imperial College''s scholar Zi exclaimed that Mo Wu is a true legend of both Mohism and medicine. His medical skills are extremely exquisite. He not only cures night blindness in the world, but also develops Qinglong real medicine. His surgical skills are extremely exquisite. He has even opened his stomach to treat people. It is vaguely known as Sai Huatuo. If he can create another miracle and cure schistosomiasis, it will be very important for Jiangnan, No less than the contribution of Johor rice.


    The scholars in the North could not help but look gloomy. What mojiazi said is not wrong. Compared with the Central Plains, Jiangnan does have many advantages. Coupled with a series of suggestions from mojiazi, this advantage is enlarged. If we solve the problem of schistosomiasis, I''m afraid the rise of Jiangnan is a nail on the board.

 Chapter 988

    Tai Chi hall.


    Li Shimin, who had just come out of the pain of losing his father, did not put too much thought on the court hall. Now he was shocked by a policy theory of the Mohist school.


    "Let''s discuss Merton''s proposal for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    Suddenly, all the ministers had wonderful faces. Most of the officials in the north were factions with five surnames and seven hopes. Naturally, they knew that the purpose of the Mexican family''s proposal for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River was to break the encirclement and suppression of the five surnames and seven hopes and break the situation for the Mohist family.


    The officials in the south are excited. For a long time, the South has superior conditions, but its development lags behind. The officials in the south do not show their power in the court. The Mexican family proposed to develop the south of the Yangtze River, which can be said to be the wish of the officials in the south of the Yangtze River. Once the South rises, their position in the central government will certainly rise.


    "Your Majesty, marquis Mo''s policy is penetrating. Jiangnan has always been known as a land of fish and rice. However, with a small population, a large number of wasteland has not been reclaimed. If chaotang gives strong support and takes the opportunity to promote Johor rice, as Marquis Mo said, the wealth of Jiangnan will certainly double in less than ten years." Feng Zhi Dai Lang said.


    Although Feng Zhidai is at odds with Mohist Zi, the great development of Jiangnan proposed by Mohist Zi is greatly beneficial to Jiangnan. As a representative of Jiangnan aristocratic family, the Feng family naturally wants to speak for Jiangnan. After all, it also involves their own interests. Once Johor rice makes great contributions, the Feng family will also make great contributions.


    "Yes, Su lake and the two lakes are flat. With a little reclamation, there are large areas of good farmland. If we cooperate with the wide planting of Johor rice, we will certainly make the world rich." Lang Sheng, a southern official said.


    "However, in addition, many hills in the south of the Yangtze River can be developed into terraces. Once the south of the Yangtze River is developed, the cultivated land in the South will not be inferior to that in the Central Plains, and the output will be higher."


    "What a splendid scene it is to plant mulberry on the pond ridge, raise silkworms with mulberry leaves, feed fish with silkworm pupae, fertilize mulberry in the pond mud, and promote the mulberry based fish pond model in the south of the Yangtze River.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Officials in the south of the Yangtze River spoke freely and were excited by the beautiful idea of the large-scale development of the south of the Yangtze River.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but turn his eyes to Su Lingnong, the big Si Nong. Su Lingnong immediately got up and said, "report to your majesty that Johor rice has been successfully planted in the two lakes, and some areas of the two lakes can also reach three crops a year."


    "Good!" Li Shimin''s eyes lit up. If Johor rice is successfully planted only in Lingnan, it doesn''t mean anything. However, if it can be successfully planted in the two lakes, it doesn''t mean that high-yield rice can be widely planted in the south of the Yangtze River. The benefits contained in it make Li Shimin excited.


    "From the perspective of Wei Chen, the promotion of Johor rice is one of them, and the construction of brick roads is also the top priority. At the beginning, mohou proposed three vertical and five horizontal plans, which are now built in the north, but few in the south. If you want to be rich and build roads first, the rainy roads in the south are muddy. If the brick roads are not smooth, no amount of wealth can be transported to Chang''an city." There are also radical Southern officials who directly quote Merton''s previous ideas and openly seek benefits for the south.


    "However, Yazhou is the best example. Since the brick road was built in Yazhou, the tribute oranges in Yazhou have sold well in Chang''an, Luoyang, and the land in the south of the Yangtze River is rich in fruits. If you can build the brick road and assist the farmers'' transplantation and cultivation technology, in less than three or five years, the usually expensive fruits will become the daily food of ordinary people," Su Lingnong said.


    Once the south of the Yangtze River is developed, it must be the time for the farmers to prosper. Naturally, he is eager to give advice.


    "This is not the dereliction of duty of the Ministry of work. There are many rivers south of the Yangtze River, and there are countless bridges to be built. It is more difficult to build brick roads. In addition, brick roads are continuously paved. Now the southernmost brick road is only paved to the three towns of Hankou, and the brick roads to the south are still under planning." Zhang Liang, a waiter of the Ministry of work, pleaded for the Ministry of work.


    "When will we have to plan? Now the brick road of Longhai line has been unblocked. It is imperative to build a smooth brick road from north to south, which is good for both the country and the people." Feng Zhidai said proudly.


    Once the brick road is built to the south of Lingnan, he will return to Lingnan quickly for up to half a month, which is more than the original trip. Moreover, everyone knows the advantages of building a brick road running through the north and south of the Tang Dynasty. However, most of the chaotang hall are held by northern officials. The brick road in the North has been connected with economic important towns through a large number of branches, and the effect is quite remarkable, while the road construction in the south But it almost stagnated, and the proposal of the large-scale development of the south of the Yangtze River suddenly detonated some hidden north-south contradictions in the chaotang.


    "The road construction in the south is too heavy, there are too many bridges, and the quantities are too large."


    "It''s ridiculous, not to mention the construction of the Weishui bridge, just the scale of the Qujiang bridge, so that the south of the Yangtze River can be unblocked."


    "The cost of a Qujiang bridge is tens of thousands. I''m afraid the whole national treasury is not enough to fill in how many rivers and bridges need to be built in the south of the Yangtze River."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly, the north and South officials quarreled together, constantly fighting for their own interests.


    For officials in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as the imperial court agrees to the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, and then according to the method of making Mohism, the rise of the south of the Yangtze River is just around the corner.


    For Northern officials, especially the five surnames and seven outlooks, once the rise of the south of the Yangtze River directly threatens the status of the five surnames and seven outlooks, the consequences will be more serious than that of Mohism. Naturally, it is impossible for the south to achieve its wish and suppress and delay the rise of the south of the Yangtze River as much as possible.


    However, after all, the officials in Jiangnan were weak. Faced with a large number of Southern officials, they soon lost the debate,


    "I beg your majesty to make a decision." the officials in Jiangnan were still unwilling and were content to turn to Li Shimin for help.


    Li Shimin opened his mouth and couldn''t help looking at Dai Zhou. Unfortunately, Dai Zhou shook his head. Everyone knew that there were many benefits of Mo Jiazi''s plan, but everyone also knew that the most fatal disadvantage of all Mo Jiazi''s plans was the cost of money. If the imperial court really supported the development of the south of the Yangtze River, the money consumed would be astronomical, but the Ministry of the people could not afford it.


    Li Shimin sighed and said with relief, "the great development of the south of the Yangtze River involves too much, and this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."


    Although he was quite excited about the development of the south of the Yangtze River, the focus of Datang was still in the Central Plains after all, and the money spent on the development of the south of the Yangtze River was astronomical. Even if he thought about it, he couldn''t help but smack his tongue.


    "However, if you want to be rich, it is indeed a wise saying to build roads first. Zhang Aiqing, the brick road connecting the north and the south is imperative, and the Ministry of work must build it as soon as possible." Li Shimin''s words changed his way.


    "Yes!" Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, said with a stiff head that building the North-South brick road had already been put on the desk of the Ministry of work. He couldn''t press it for so long. Now he can only push the boat with the current.


    All the officials in the south of the Yangtze River look gloomy. Li Shimin''s meaning is obvious. I''m afraid there is no money to implement the large-scale development of the south of the Yangtze River. He is only responsible for repairing the brick roads, and the rest depends on the self-reliance of the people in the south of the Yangtze River. Without the strong support of the imperial court, I''m afraid it is far away to surpass the Central Plains by relying on the strength of the south of the Yangtze River alone.


    Many people can''t help but look at an old man in front of all the officials. He is the leader of all the officials in the south of the Yangtze River, Xiao Yu, Duke of the state of song.


    Xiao Yu is listed in Lingyan Pavilion and has a high position. If he is willing to advise Jiangnan, he can certainly seek more interests for Jiangnan.


    "On behalf of the people in Jiangnan, thank you, your majesty!"


    To the surprise of all officials, Xiao Yu did not strive for the interests of Jiangnan, but took the initiative to accept the result.


    A group of northern officials could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. They knew that although they had temporarily preserved their own interests, they had offended the aristocratic family in Jiangnan to death.


    "Yang Mou, this must be the Yang Mou of the Mohist school." the official surnamed Wu Qiwang said gnashing his teeth.


    Everyone knows what he means when he throws out the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. If Wuxing Qiwang takes the initiative to cooperate with the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, it is no less than cultivating an enemy for himself. If Wuxing Qiwang prevents the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, it will push the Jiangnan aristocratic family to the side of Mozi. No matter what, Mozi will not suffer.

 Chapter 989

    In recent days, the great development of the south of the Yangtze River has spread rapidly in the Tang Dynasty, and the whole Tang Dynasty has been a sensation. Some people agree that once the development of the south of the Yangtze River is developed, the wealth and national strength of the south of the Yangtze River will prosper day by day. Some people object that this move will repeat the tragedy of the Grand Canal if it costs too much and is too happy. I''m afraid that the great development of the south of the Yangtze River needs the efforts of the people in the south of the Yangtze River.


    It was just dawn, the east gate of Chang''an city had just opened, and a knight came from the dusty East.


    As soon as the knight entered Chang''an City, he immediately transferred and went straight to Mo mansion.


    In Merton, Merton is walking with the potbellied Princess Changle. The month when Princess Changle is pregnant is not small. Zhang suggested that Princess Changle walk more, which is conducive to production. Therefore, walking every morning is a necessary program for Merton and Princess Changle.


    "The great development of Jiangnan is indeed a policy to benefit the country and the people. However, if the prime minister doesn''t discuss with the Jiangnan aristocratic family, he will directly disclose it. I''m afraid it will arouse the resentment of the Jiangnan aristocratic family. He thinks that the prime minister is selfish." Princess Changle frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the aristocratic family attaches most importance to its interests, especially its own interests. If you negotiate with the Jiangnan aristocratic family for your husband, I''m afraid that in the twinkling of an eye, the Jiangnan aristocratic family will reach a secret deal with the five surnames and seven hopes. Now everything is in the light. I''m afraid even if the Jiangnan aristocratic family agrees, the people in Jiangnan don''t agree."


    Princess Changle could not help but cover her mouth and said with a smile, "you will do bad!"


    "Thank you this time, madam. Otherwise, Mojia village can''t find a way to break the situation." Merton let go.


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look and said, "how can you thank my concubine?"


    "Don''t worry, Wei Fu has already prepared a gift for you from Jiangnan. Calculate the day, and it''s time!" Merton laughed.


    "The gift of Jiangnan?" Princess Changle felt a little curious.


    Suddenly, a rapid sound of horses'' hoofs sounded outside Mo''s house. With a rapid sound of Herod, Mo Er came in with heavy travel.


    "Go back to young master and madam, Mo Er will live up to his mission." Mo Er waved his big hand, and the two Mohist children carried the package just unloaded from the horse''s back.


    "Please, madam!" Merton reached out and waved.


    "Is this the gift you said?" Princess Changle reached out and felt a chill in her hand.


    Merton nodded and said, "madam, open it."


    Princess Changle was curious and looked forward to opening the package. She saw that there was a thin layer of broken ice above the package. When she pulled off the ice, she impressively exposed fruit the size of an egg.


    "Litchi!" Princess Changle said in surprise.


    Merton was stunned. He looked at Princess Changle and said, "madam, do you know her?"


    Princess Changle nodded and said, "in the early years, the Feng family in Lingnan paid tribute to Chang''an city. My father and Emperor divided some for me to taste. It is really very delicious. Unfortunately, due to the long journey, it needs a whip to deliver it. It costs too much money and people, so they ordered to prohibit paying tribute to litchi."


    Merton then understood and nodded: "madam is pregnant and has a poor appetite. My husband heard that litchi is very delicious, so he asked people to specially transport some from the south of the Yangtze River for his wife to taste."


    Princess Changle was very fond of fruit after she was pregnant. Now Lingnan litchi is mature, Merton sent someone to bring back a batch.


    "Or does my husband understand me?" Princess Changle couldn''t wait to pick up a litchi, peel off the shell and reveal the fresh and tender pulp inside.


    "The litchi seems to be more delicious than what my concubine ate before." Princess Changle quickly ate a litchi, and her eyes brightened.


    Merton nodded: "Litchi is very difficult to preserve. It changes color in one day, aroma in two days, and taste in three days. After four or five days, the color and aroma are gone. However, Weifu immediately refrigerates litchi with saltpeter ice as soon as it is picked from the branch. Along the way, ice is added continuously to ensure continuous preservation. However, thousands of miles from Lingnan to Chang''an City, the taste of litchi is as delicious as if it had just been picked from a tree."


    "Ah! It''s so extravagant. If it''s spread, it''s not my concubine. It''s going to be said to be extravagant. Isn''t it detrimental to the image of the mistress of the Mohist school." Princess Changle was startled when she heard that the little litchi had consumed so much energy. The Mohist school is now in the wind and rain. If she spread bad rumors again, it would be even worse.


    Merton smiled and comforted: "madam, don''t worry, this is a fresh-keeping storage method specially designed for my husband. Before long, a large number of litchi will be transported from Lingnan to Chang''an city. My lady just tastes fresh first. How can she be said to be extravagant?"


    "There will really be a large number of litchi transported from Lingnan," Princess Changle said in surprise.


    Merton nodded and said, "of course, Weifu has placed a large order with Lingnan. In half a month at most, a large number of litchi will be transported from Lingnan to Chang''an city."


    "But if five surnames and seven hopes are destroyed from it?" Princess Changle worried.


    Merton said cunning, "borrow the reputation of your royal highness, and do not know if your highness is willing to sacrifice for the people of South of the Five Ridges."


    Princess Changle couldn''t help but put a litchi in her mouth. She said helplessly, "eating people''s mouth is short and taking people''s hands is soft. Even the princess can''t escape!"


    Merton laughed loudly, took out his pen and paper and wrote:


    "Chang''an looks back, embroidered in piles, thousands of doors on the top of the mountain open again and again.


    Riding the princess of the world of mortals, no one knows it''s litchi. "


    Princess Changle looked at Merton''s poems and said helplessly, "in order to eat litchi, the princess''s reputation has been destroyed."


    The first batch of litchi cost a lot of MI, but she tried it first. She couldn''t explain it anyway.


    Merton laughed and said, "as a husband, how can you let the lady bear this bad reputation alone? In that case, you and my husband share weal and woe."


    When Merton changed the paper, he did not hesitate to write again:


    "At the foot of Luofu Mountain in the spring of four seasons, Luju and bayberry are new again.


    Eat 300 litchi a day and never quit being a Lingnan person. "


    "Eat 300 lychees a day. This time, you and my husband love to eat lychees. The bad name can''t be washed away." Princess Changle peeled a lychee and stuffed it into Merton''s mouth.


    Merton tasted the familiar delicacy and nodded with satisfaction. Litchi transported from Lingnan was the fruit he specially showed to the Jiangnan aristocratic family.


    He said that seeing is better than hearing. No matter how touching his propaganda in the ink magazine is, it is far from the real interests of litchi. Moreover, even the Litchi at the southern end can be transported to Chang''an City, let alone other fruits.


    Now he has paved the way for Jiangnan, and the interests visible to the naked eye are within reach. He doesn''t believe that Jiangnan aristocratic families are indifferent.

 Chapter 990

    "Duke Xiao, why don''t you fight for Jiangnan? This is the best time for us to prosper in Jiangnan." in the Duke''s residence of the state of song, a group of Jiangnan officials gathered and said one after another.


    "Yes! Once the great development of the south of the Yangtze River is carried out, it is not impossible that the land of the south of the Yangtze River will surpass the central plains under the unique conditions of the south of the Yangtze River." Feng Zhidai said proudly.


    Other officials nodded one after another. As scholars in Jiangnan, they naturally knew the advantages of Jiangnan. If they could develop step by step before, however, Mohist Zi gave Jiangnan a series of tricks to let people see the hope of Jiangnan''s prosperity in the shortest time. How can they stand it.


    Xiao Yu looked at the impatient crowd and couldn''t help shaking his head and said, "you are all elite people in the south of the Yangtze River. How can you be so easily encouraged by the Mohist family? Don''t you know the purpose of the Mohist family."


    A group of officials in the south of the Yangtze River could not help talking about the encirclement and suppression of the Mohist school. Naturally, they knew that the Mohist school had fallen into the disadvantage and was looking for a chance to break the situation. However, the matter involved the great prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River and could not help but make them confused.


    "Of course we know that the Mohists are using us as guns! But what the Mohists are doing is good for Jiangnan. If we miss the opportunity, I''m afraid we will be caught off guard in the future." an official in Jiangnan hesitated.


    Terrace! Grow cotton! Sangji fish pond, every item of schistosomiasis control is a good policy to benefit the south of the Yangtze River without harm.


    Xiao Yu sighed: "this is the power of Mohism. First, there are few places and many mountains. Malaria and plague are the shackles that perplex the development of Jiangnan. Countless people in Jiangnan have a headache and perplex generations of people in Jiangnan. But who would have thought that they could solve it in the hands of Mohism. I have to admire such ink skills."


    Many officials in Jiangnan nodded, even though they all knew the intention of Mohist Zi, none of them was disgusted with Mohist Zi. After all, Mohist Zi really thought about Jiangnan.


    Although considering that it may offend the five surnames and seven hopes, none of them can stand the temptation of the great development of the south of the Yangtze River.


    "Second, with the wisdom of the Mohist school, how can he not calculate that once the money needed for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River is astronomical. With today''s chaotang taxes, we can''t take much money and food to support the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. If we are excited, there is only one way to turn to the Mohist school."


    "All this is also in the calculation of Mohist school." the people were surprised, but then suddenly, when it comes to arithmetic, Mohist school is unique in the world. It''s not uncommon to calculate this step.


    "So Duke Xiao agreed to build the North-South brick road neatly." Feng Zhidai was surprised.


    Xiao Xuan nodded and said: "Everyone can predict the benefits of the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, and we believe your majesty knows it. However, once the great development of the south of the Yangtze River is carried out, the whole country needs to support the south of the Yangtze River. Even if your majesty agrees, the people in the Central Plains will not be willing! So I retreat and ask for a brick road for the south of the Yangtze River first. I believe five surnames and seven hopes can''t object. Once the North-South brick road is built, the North-South will be smooth It''s no less than opening a grand canal. This is the foundation of our great prosperity in the south of the Yangtze River. I won''t hesitate. "


    "Xiao Gong is wise!" the people admire him.


    Xiao continued: "Third, since chaotang has no spare power to support Jiangnan, and we want to prosper Jiangnan, we must be inseparable from the support of Mohist ink technology. We must stand on the opposite of five surnames and seven hopes. If we don''t strive, now ink magazines must have spread all over Jiangnan. I''m afraid we will be scolded by the people in Jiangnan and miss the opportunity to prosper Jiangnan. All this is in the Mohist family In my calculations. "


    Feng Zhidai angrily said, "the Mohists are really dangerous. Since they want me in the south of the Yangtze River, they even openly kidnap me and so on."


    "That is, if you ask for someone, you should have the posture of asking for someone. The Mohist school is so dangerous that it is still holding a shelf. He is not afraid of evil. I wait."


    "The Mo family is deceiving me. There is no one in the south of the Yangtze River!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A group of officials in the south of the Yangtze River are gnashing their teeth at the Mohists. The Mohists put them on the fire! Now they are in a dilemma. If they enter, they offend the five surnames and seven hopes, and if they retreat, they have no face to the people in the south of the Yangtze River.


    "In my opinion, it''s not difficult. When I came to Taiyuan, the Wang family promised me to wait a moment. After the Mohist School succumbed, the five surnames and seven hopes will fully support the development of the south of the Yangtze River and the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River." an official in the south of the Yangtze River solemnly said.


    Many officials can''t help but brighten their eyes. If they can not offend the five surnames and seven hopes, but also make Jiangnan prosper, it is naturally the best.


    "If we can have the best of both worlds, it would be better." many Jiangnan officials were afraid of the forces of five surnames and seven hopes.


    "Let the Mohist school give in?" Feng Zhidai couldn''t help humming. "In the current state, the Mohist school is smelly and hard, but I''m ready to carry it to the end with the five surnames and seven hopes. I don''t believe that the five surnames and seven hopes can make the Mohist School give in. Even if the Mohist school fails, I''m afraid it''s a monkey year and a horse month. We can wait all the time."


    The Feng family is a local snake in the south of the five ridges. Naturally, they are not afraid of the five surnames and seven looks, and they can''t help sneering at the commitment of the five surnames and seven looks.


    The faces of the officials in Jiangnan darkened, and the Mohist School led the revival of Mohist school. Their skill and ability can be said to be extremely strong. It''s not easy to fight against the five surnames and seven looks alone. I''m afraid it''s not so easy to make the Mohist school give in. Should the Jiangnan aristocratic family always wait for the five surnames and seven looks? Besides, what if the five surnames and seven looks back at that time? After all, I''m afraid the five surnames and seven looks don''t want Jiang Let''s grow up!


    While the people were arguing, Xiao Rui, Xiao''s eldest son, came in and reported: "I''ve seen my father and my colleagues."


    "Why don''t you come here with Princess Xiangcheng?" Xiao Yu frowned. The eldest son Xiao Rui married Princess Xiangcheng, Li Shimin''s eldest daughter. Now Princess Xiangcheng is pregnant, and Xiao Rui usually accompanies her.


    Xiao Rui arched his hand, sent a fruit basket to Xiao Yu and said, "my child came to officially report the matter. Princess Changle just sent a batch of fruit to Princess Xiangcheng. She said it was good for pregnant women. She specially sent it to Xiangcheng for tasting. My child asked my father to have a look."


    Xiao Yu was furious and said, "it''s nonsense. Changle and Xiangcheng sisters love each other deeply. It''s a good thing to send fruit to each other. What do you mean by giving it to me?"


    If his father-in-law comes out to rob his pregnant daughter-in-law of fruit to eat, wouldn''t he be ashamed of his old face, and his son''s filial piety is not the filial piety method.


    "Xiao Gong, wait a minute! Now the Mohists are advocating the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, and Princess Changle sends fruits to Princess Xiangcheng. I''m afraid it''s not so simple!" Feng Zhidai frowned.


    Xiao Rui nodded and said, "brother Feng is clever. The fruit sent by Princess Changle is not ordinary fruit, but a Lingnan specialty, litchi, which can''t be seen in Chang''an."


    When he saw the litchi, he knew that the purpose of Princess Changle''s sending litchi was not to give it to Princess Xiangcheng, but to show it to Xiao Yu and other officials in the south of the Yangtze River, so he brought it to his father.


    "Litchi!" a group of Jiangnan officials were surprised. As a Jiangnan aristocratic family, they are not unfamiliar with litchi. This delicious fruit gives people endless aftertaste. However, it has a fatal disadvantage, that is, it is not easy to preserve, and it has changed its flavor in a few more days.


    "Could it be that the Mohists found a way to preserve litchi after the way to store tribute oranges?" an official exclaimed.


    "Good!"


    Xiao Rui said solemnly. He opened the fruit basket directly and revealed the best litchi.


    Among the officials present, Feng Zhidai is the most qualified to comment on litchi. He was born in Lingnan and loved litchi most since he was a child. Now when he sees litchi, he can''t help but move forward.


    "Judging from the appearance, it''s just like picking it. However, Lingnan litchi changes color in one day, aroma in two days, and taste in three days. It''s gone in four or five days. I don''t know if I can taste one." Feng Zhidai solemnly said that this is for Princess Xiangcheng. Naturally, he had to ask.


    "But!" Xiao Yu said directly. Apart from anything else, he could still decide a litchi.


    Feng Zhidai couldn''t wait to pick up a litchi, peel it skillfully and put it in his mouth. Suddenly, a familiar delicious taste filled his taste buds, which made his eyes wet.


    "Sorry, I''ve been away from my hometown for a long time, but now I''ve met litchi in my hometown. Feng Zhidai hurriedly said that although he has a high status in Chang''an City, he is also similar to proton. He hasn''t returned to Lingnan for several years. Now he can''t help losing his temper when he meets litchi, his favorite litchi in his childhood.


    "I''ll understand, brother Feng, let''s make a comment!" an official in Jiangnan couldn''t wait to ask.


    "However, this litchi is really top-grade, just like it was just picked from a tree. It has complete color, flavor and flavor. Mojiazi has really mastered the method of preserving litchi." Feng Zhi Daiken said.


    "That''s true!" the crowd could not help sighing, and they could guess from Feng Zhidai''s expression.


    Xiao Rui continued: "not only that, mojiazi not only mastered the method of preserving litchi, but also wrote two poems for litchi. Now the name of litchi is already ringing through Chang''an city."


    "As soon as I ride the princess of the world of mortals, I smile. No one knows it''s litchi."


    "Eat 300 lychees a day and never quit being a Lingnan man."


    The officials present couldn''t help sighing. With these two poems, Lingnan litchi must become famous in Chang''an city. Now mojiazi has the method of preserving and storing litchi. As long as Lingnan litchi is transported to Chang''an City, everyone is excited about its benefits.


    On one side is the illusory promise of five surnames and seven hopes, on the other side is the accessible interests of Mohism, and the balance in the hearts of many Jiangnan officials began to tilt involuntarily.


    Xiao Yu looked at the expressions of the officials, then looked at the example in front of him, waved and asked Xiao Rui to give the rest of the lychees to Princess Xiangcheng.


    When Xiao Rui left, Xiao Yu took a deep breath: "the great development of the south of the Yangtze River is a centennial plan of the south of the Yangtze River. Naturally, you can''t trust any party. Go and continue to explore the style of five surnames and seven hopes. I''ll meet the Mo family in person."


    "Thank you, Xiao Gong!" everyone nodded.


    In any case, since the Jiangnan aristocratic family has found the opportunity, it will not give up so easily. No matter whether they choose the five surnames, Qiwang or Mohism, they can''t live without the benefits of the Jiangnan aristocratic family.

 Chapter 991

    "Riding the princess of the world of mortals, no one knows it''s litchi!"


    With the poems of mojiazi, the rumor that Princess Changle loved litchi immediately spread in Chang''an city. Everyone was curious about the unheard of fruit in this pass. Even Princess Changle loved it so much. Mojiazi said that she ate 300 litchi a day and never quit being a Lingnan person.


    "Litchi is also known as Danli. Sima Xiangru called it Lizhi in Shanglin Fu. It is a specialty of Lingnan. The flesh is delicious and juicy, and the food is sweet, which makes people have endless aftertaste." in Chang''an City, a Lingnan businessman proudly showed off his hometown specialty to the public.


    "Since litchi is so delicious, why have we never heard of it in Chang''an City?" a Chang''an citizen questioned.


    Lingnan merchant regretted: "that''s because litchi is not easy to store. If you pick it from a tree, you have to eat it, otherwise it will taste bad in three or five days. However, if it''s thousands of miles from Lingnan to Chang''an City, it''s bad to transport it to Chang''an City unless it''s 800 miles urgent."


    "The Mohists are really considerate for Princess Changle." the people in Chang''an envy one after another.


    If it had been before, people would have denounced Princess Changle for being extravagant. However, for a pregnant woman with six years of pregnancy, even an ordinary man would try his best to meet his wife''s requirements. Princess Changle, with six years of pregnancy, even ate apples equivalent to gold of the same size sent from the western regions. As for the litchi sent by 800 Li in a hurry, people would not be surprised.


    "I''ve been away from my hometown for several years. If I can eat litchi from my hometown, I''m willing to spend more money." all Lingnan businessmen envy me.


    "I''d like to try this litchi that Mozi will never forget."


    "What''s the difficulty? According to the grapevine news, a huge Mohist caravan loaded with lychees entered Chang''an City this morning, and now it has begun to sell in Dongshi." a well-informed Chang''an merchant said with a smile.


    "Seriously!" said the Lingnan merchant with a surprised look on his face.


    "It''s true, but the price can''t be low. It''s 100 Wen a kilogram." Chang''an merchant couldn''t help but smack his tongue.


    "A hundred Wen a kilo!" the crowd exclaimed one after another. One kilogram of hundred Wen is an unheard of sky high price, which is not affordable to ordinary people.


    However, everyone did not question the price. This is a fruit thousands of miles away, and it is not easy to store. A hundred Wen a kilo is already an extremely fair price.


    Lingnan merchants turned and picked up a stack of silver tickets, and without hesitation turned and went to the East market.


    In the east city, there has long been a sea of people. With the poems of mojiazi, litchi has become the most popular topic in Chang''an city. However, the news of litchi 100 Wen and a kilo detonated the whole Chang''an city.


    A hundred Wen a kilo of fruit appeared in Chang''an City, but almost all Chang''an city businessmen looked forward to it. Some were curious and some were sniffing.


    However, the final result surprised everyone. In just one day, the litchi of 20 carriages sold out in Chang''an city.


    "Oh, my God, Mozi is worthy of Mozi!" the merchants in Chang''an City were full of admiration.


    The speed of transporting lychees must be fast. Suppose that the carriage transporting lychees bears only a thousand kilograms, minus the ice used for refrigeration, it will be at least 500 kilograms. Twenty carriages will transport tens of thousands of kilograms of lychees. The price of each kilogram of lychees is 100 Wen. In one day, Mojia village will earn millions of money, that is, 1000 yuan, and this is only the income of Chang''an city, If the litchi in Lingnan can be fully distributed, there are not a few shrewd businessmen in the business community of Chang''an city. When they calculate, they can''t help taking a breath. This is a great deal.


    "You are really a waste. You let the merchant team of Mojia Zi transport the goods to Chang''an city so easily." Zheng Chang looked at the litchi sent by his men and couldn''t rest his anger. Wu surnamed Qiwang himself strictly prevented the blocking of Mojia village. Unexpectedly, he still made a mistake.


    A servant of the Zheng family was wronged and said, "young master, it''s not our fault. All the time, the order we have received is to try our best to prevent the goods of mojiazi from being transported out. Where did we think that mojiazi should buy goods directly from Lingnan? I don''t check it for a while."


    "I don''t care. From now on, no goods from Mojia village can go in and out of Xingyang." Zheng Chang said angrily.


    "Yes!" the Zheng family hurried away.


    Zheng Bo could not help sighing in his heart. Although they could successfully block the team of Mojia village in Xingyang, the intention of Mojia Zi was not just to sell litchi, but to let the Jiangnan aristocratic family see the benefits of the great development of Jiangnan.


    Chang''an city can consume thousands of litchi a day. What a temptation. I''m afraid the mojiazi has achieved their goal.


    "Brother Mo has the talent of Fan Li and can receive thousands of passes a day with a wave. I really admire him." Xiao Rui said with admiration all over his face in the Mohist village.


    It has to be said that Zheng Bo guessed well. After Chang''an City sold thousands of litchi a day, the whole Jiangnan aristocratic family couldn''t sit still. The leader of Jiangnan aristocratic family, the Xiao family, finally made an action. However, Xiao Yu, the Duke of the state of song, took his own identity and didn''t come in person. Instead, he sent his eldest son Xiao Rui and Princess Xiangcheng to visit Mojia village.


    With the sister friendship between Princess Changle and Princess Xiangyang, there is some cover for both families.


    Merton smiled and saw that Princess Changle and Princess Xiangcheng were enjoying litchi. He shook his head and said, "I''m not afraid of brother Xiao''s joke. Although this batch of litchi sold 100 Wen a kilo, the Mohists did not make money, not to mention the money from Lingnan fruit farmers. The price of 100 Wen is just guaranteed!"


    "Mo Hou benevolence and righteousness."


    Xiao Rui couldn''t help nodding in agreement. The prices of goods from Lingnan to Chang''an city increased sharply, not to mention litchi with extremely harsh preservation conditions.


    "Little brother, it''s a pity that such a precious taste can only be trapped in Lingnan. It''s really a terrible thing. At first, Mo just wanted to make Changle eat more fruit. Later, he found that this can also be done. This is a large-scale transportation. By the way, let the people in Lingnan seek some welfare." Merton sighed.


    "The princess of the world of mortals smiled. No one knew it was litchi. Sister Changle took it orally, but she was stained this time." Princess Xiangyang joked.


    Princess Changle suddenly turned red and couldn''t help showing a look of happiness.


    Xiao Rui shook his head and said, "it''s far more than that. Lingnan litchi is exported to Chang''an city. In addition to the profits of fruit farmers, the labor, horses, inns and warehouses needed along the way can make profits for businesses in Chang''an city. If large-scale transportation in the future, it will benefit many people!"


    "The litchi from Lingnan can be transported to Chang''an city. In addition to saltpeter ice making, it is also due to the successful refrigerated carriage developed by Mohist school. Once enough ice is added, even in hot summer, it can be refrigerated for one day. In the future, let alone litchi, as long as it is fruits and vegetables from the south, it can be transported from Lingnan to the North intact." Merton reached out his hand, A Mohist boy quickly pulled a special carriage to Xiao Rui.


    Xiao Rui took a closer look and saw that the carriage was wrapped in a thick quilt.


    "This is the refrigerated carriage. It won''t be hot to death if wrapped in a quilt! How to keep warm." Xiao Rui didn''t speak yet, and Xiangyang princess said frankly.


    "My sister doesn''t know. The reason why the quilt is warm is that the quilt makes it difficult to lose heat, which makes people feel warm. The Mohist family wraps the cold carriage with a quilt, and then assists the Mohist thermal insulation material to protect the door from extremely low temperature. My sister''s ice cream shop often covers the ice with a quilt, so that the ice won''t melt." Princess Changle explained.


    "As long as the ice doesn''t melt, the temperature in the refrigerated carriage will be very low. In this way, litchi will keep fresh." Xiao Rui''s eyes brightened. Now saltpeter ice making has been quite popular in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid this litchi business is really promising in the auxiliary refrigerated carriage.


    "It''s a pity that litchi is only two or three months old. This palace is really a little reluctant?" Princess Xiangyang said with some regret.


    Merton laughed and said, "sister Xiangyang, don''t worry. In my younger brother''s idea, I will take the south of the Yangtze River as the vegetable and fruit base of the Central Plains. Some fruits and vegetables that are not suitable for the season in the north can be planted in the South against the season. Once the North-South brick road is built and assisted by the refrigerated carriage, I''m afraid there will be more fruits and vegetables in the world."


    Xiao Rui''s mind was shocked. He thought it was a single litchi business, but he didn''t expect it to be a vegetable and fruit business several times better than the litchi business.


    For a long time, Jiangnan has superior conditions, but there is no place to focus. However, with the blessing of Mohist ink technology, it even emits a dazzling light. Xiao Rui is familiar with poetry and books, but he also knows what great benefits it will be to Jiangnan once the whole Jiangnan becomes a vegetable and fruit base in autumn and winter in the north.

 Chapter 992

    "I admire the foresight of mohou, brother Yu!" Xiao Rui said with admiration.


    At this moment, he really realized that mojiazi deserved his reputation. Transporting vegetables in autumn and winter and fruits in spring and summer simply gave full play to the advantages of Jiangnan. In the long run, the advantages of Jiangnan will gradually expand, and it is not out of reach to catch up with the Central Plains.


    "It''s said that Mojia village has a greenhouse and spinach that is evergreen in winter. My brother-in-law is not afraid that the vegetables in the south of the Yangtze River will be transported back and rob my brother-in-law''s business." Xiangcheng princess''s eyes flashed. If you want to say winter vegetables, I''m afraid the most famous ones are the off-season vegetables produced in the greenhouse of Mojia village and the gradually rising spinach, which are necessary for the Royal winter.


    Merton laughed and said, "the output of vegetables produced in the greenhouse is even difficult to supply in Mojia village, not to mention the large market in Chang''an city. As for spinach, you will be tired of eating delicacies every day, not to mention single vegetables."


    Princess Changle and Princess Xiangcheng nodded with lingering fear. They ate spinach every day because they were pregnant. Now they have a psychological shadow.


    "However, due to the great interests of the magic mirror and the current situation of the Mohist school, the Mohist school still keeps secret its glass secret technology. If one day, the Mohist school can''t resist the pressure and apply for a glass secret technology patent, at that time, the glass will be mass produced, and the greenhouses in the north will probably rise up. In winter, vegetables will no longer be the stuff of the dignitaries'' table, and even one day, the vegetables in the north will be self-sufficient I''m afraid the dishes from the south of the Yangtze River will not sell at a good price if they are sent thousands of miles away. "Merton pointed out.


    Xiao Rui was shocked and immediately understood what Merton meant. At present, Jiangnan does have Tianshi and has unique conditions. However, it is not easy to relax. If greenhouses and greenhouses rise everywhere in the north, I''m afraid it will directly compete with vegetables in Jiangnan.


    The north and the South have days, sometimes far away, high freight and favorable location. However, the cost of greenhouse is quite high and expensive. It is obvious that this is a time for who to seize the first opportunity.


    If Jiangnan invests in the large-scale transportation of vegetables from the south to the north, it will be more than worth the loss if the North spends a lot of money to build greenhouses. If Jiangnan remains complacent and waits until the greenhouses in the north are established, I''m afraid there will be no need for vegetables from the South in the local vegetable supply.


    "Mozi is forcing Jiangnan to make a statement!" Xiao Rui took a deep breath and looked dignified. If Jiangnan really pushed Mozi to the side of Wuxing Qiwang, once Wuxing Qiwang mastered the glass secret technology, I''m afraid the chance of Jiangnan''s rise will be greatly reduced.


    "Of course, even if the Mohist School resists the pressure of five surnames and seven looks, the glass secret skills will not be cherished all the time. After all, this is not in line with the Mohist concept." Merton pressed again.


    Xiao Rui breathed quickly. He knew that most Jiangnan aristocratic families preferred five surnames and seven hopes. He wanted to wait until five surnames and seven hopes convinced the Mohist village, and then turn his head to support the development of Jiangnan. However, the Mohist Zi made him understand that if the Jiangnan aristocratic family delayed for one more day, the advantage of Jiangnan would also be lost.


    If you don''t harm your own interests, the Jiangnan aristocratic family is naturally happy to see its Cheng Mo family fighting with the five surnames and seven looks. However, at the moment, it is related to the interests of the Jiangnan aristocratic family. I''m afraid the Jiangnan aristocratic family will not be so calm.


    "I admire you for thinking of the world," said Xiao Rui with a bitter smile. He doesn''t think Merton is joking. If ordinary people would not be willing to benefit so much from the glass secret technology, but the Mohist school is not. Xiao Rui believes that with the character and concept of the Mohist school, the glass secret technology will be made public in the Tang Dynasty sooner or later.


    "Next, it''s the second meeting gift that Mo is going to give brother Xiao." Merton stretched out his hand and a son of the Mohist family presented a glassware with a wide caliber and tightly sealed by an iron sheet.


    "What''s in it is Gong orange!" Xiao Rui said in surprise. Gong orange was popular in Chang''an City before and after the Spring Festival. Now the season is over, but he didn''t expect that Mo Jiazi would put Gong orange in a bottle and put it now.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, because the goods in Mojia village can''t be sold recently, even the sales of glass has decreased significantly. The children of Mojia have found a way to make a large number of glass cans, and then put on the secret fruit pulp. After sealed tightly, they can be preserved for a long time without deterioration."


    "How long can it be kept?" asked Xiao Rui.


    "At least a year!" Merton must have said.


    Xiao Rui''s breath stagnated. There is no doubt that this product is good for Jiangnan. Jiangnan is rich in fruits. How many can be transported by refrigerated carriage alone. If the remaining fruits are made into cans, they can sell well in the Tang Dynasty.


    "However, it is extremely difficult to seal the cans. It is difficult to do it by manpower alone, so the Mohists borrowed the power of the river and used the waterwheel to seal the cans quickly and accurately."


    Unconsciously, they came to the river. Merton pointed to a huge waterwheel and said loudly. Xiao Rui raised his head. The waterwheel kept flowing with the river, and a huge roller was connected to the workshop by the river.


    "The water flow in the Central Plains is gentle. The Mohists got such a place with rapid water flow with the help of geographical advantages. Few cans are produced. However, for the south of the Yangtze River with abundant water resources, such water conservancy is everywhere." Merton pointed to the huge water lane.


    "Ink skill!" Xiao Rui whispered in his heart.


    Whether it is the refrigerated carriage or the huge water conservancy machinery in front of us, Mohist Zi is showing his strength and shows Jiangnan that it is not Mohism that urgently needs Jiangnan, but Jiangnan also needs Mohism. If Jiangnan wants to rise, it must be inseparable from Mohist ink technology.


    Under the leadership of Merton, Xiao Rui and Princess Xiangcheng carefully visited the workshops in Mojia village. They couldn''t help but rejoice in the exquisite ink skills of Mojia.


    Fortunately, Wuxing Qiwang was so greedy that he even wanted to completely annex the Mojia village. Fortunately, Mojia Zi was a hard bone and refused to give in to the power of Wuxing Qiwang. Otherwise, Wuxing Qiwang itself would be powerful. If he got so many ink skills, it would be difficult for Jiangnan to catch up with Jiangnan even if it developed according to the road designed by Mojia Zi.


    "It''s not Mo''s nonsense. If the Mohists stand in the south of the Yangtze River, the south of the Yangtze River may prosper and catch up with or even surpass the Central Plains. If the Mohists stand in the Central Plains, with workshops everywhere in the Central Plains, it''s useless to rely on a few kinds of agricultural products alone. The south of the Yangtze River will always become a vassal of the Central Plains," said Merton Lang.


    With the progress of society, agriculture has gradually become a vassal of industry. No matter how well the agricultural development in Jiangnan is, without the addition of industry, the great prosperity in Jiangnan will be in vain.


    "Thank you for your bluntness. I will try my best to persuade my father when I go back." Xiao Rui solemnly said. At the moment, he has deeply realized that it is not Mohism that needs Jiangnan, but that Jiangnan needs Mohism more. Without Jiangnan Mohism, it will continue to dormant and wait for the opportunity. Without Mohism, Jiangnan Daxing will become a dream, and according to his news, The Mohists even touched another place that the five surnames and seven hopes could not take into account, that is the western regions.


    Merton smiled: "Mr. Mo can also tell brother Xiao that there are hundreds of carriages of Lingnan lychees detained outside Xingyang. No accident, these lychees are stinking. This is a loss of thousands of money. These lychees are the fruits of the hard work of the people in Lingnan. They have been ruined. I believe Mr. Xiao will certainly get justice for the people in Lingnan, By the way, it will open up a lifeline for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. "


    Xiao Rui took a deep look at Merton and said with admiration: "mohou is good at calculation!"


    Merton''s two poems set off a litchi craze in Chang''an City, but also made a time difference. They suddenly transported tens of thousands of kilograms of fresh litchi from Jiangnan, which must annoy the angry Zheng family in Xingyang. Naturally, they will not allow the litchi purchased by the Mohist family to arrive in Chang''an city again. Find a reason to detain them one by one.


    However, what the Zheng family in Xingyang didn''t know was that the mojiazi deliberately asked the Zheng family in Xingyang to detain the hundreds of litchi. In a hurry, the mojiazi tried his best to transport tens of thousands of kilograms of litchi to Chang''an City, which was the limit. As for the remaining hundreds of carriage litchi, I''m afraid there was not so much ice to refrigerate, and it might have been broken when it was transported to Xingyang. The Zheng family in Xingyang was complacent, but I didn''t know it Jing fell into a trap.


    What''s more terrible is that this route is the only brick road from Chang''an city to Lingnan. If Jiangnan aristocratic family wants to promote the great development of Jiangnan, this route is the road that must be fought, and Mozi just delivered the handle to Jiangnan aristocratic family at the right time.


    MOH family! It is worthy of MOH family.


    Xiao Rui felt for the first time that even if there was no Jiangnan aristocratic family, it would be difficult to laugh to the end by means of Mohist Zi.

 Chapter 993

    "Detain it! Detain it all." Xingyang County Sheriff angrily stopped a carriage carrying litchi. Because he didn''t check for a moment, he was scolded by the Zheng family. Naturally, he wanted to sprinkle all his anger on the head of the Mohist family.


    The rickshaw driver who transported litchi argued: "we are transporting litchi from Lingnan. What else has this fruit done?"


    Xingyang County Yamen catch up with angry voice: "don''t think I don''t know you are in the Mozi''s transport of lychee, in Xingyang Zhengjia has the final say, from now on, a litchi also don''t want to transport to Mohist village."


    Looking at the expression of the coachman, Constable Xingyang couldn''t help but feel happy. The last time he was put forward by mojiazi, this time, he must let mojiazi know what the king of hell is easy to see and the kid is difficult to deal with.


    "Constable is mighty!" a constable quickly came forward and complimented.


    "The tiger doesn''t get angry. The Mohists treat me as a sick cat!" Xingyang said in a loud voice, showing a trace of pride when catching the head.


    The constable flattered and said, "constable, naturally, is majestic. I heard that the Mohist School transported Lingnan exotic fruit litchi this time, but it''s worth 100 Wen a kilo. Even the princess praised these rare exotic fruits. Don''t you want to taste them?"


    "You mean......" Constable Xingyang was very excited. Mohist poems and litchi fever in Chang''an city had long been spread all over the Central Plains. How could he not know the name of litchi.


    "Now the Mohists are transporting unidentified goods. Constable, it''s all right to open the box and check it! As for the missing, who can know." the constable said with a bad smile.


    "However, it''s not too much to take some lychees to compensate us for being scolded by Mojia Zi." Constable Xingyang said.


    With his understanding, the Zheng family could not send litchi to mojiazi. Such a valuable thing might as well be cheaper for him.


    Suddenly, under the psychology of jealousy, curiosity and arrogance, Constable Xingyang strode to the vehicle transporting litchi and said proudly, "you open the carriage immediately. I want to check the goods."


    The rickshaw driver who transported the litchi was shocked and said, "no, litchi is very easy to deteriorate. If you open it rashly, the litchi inside is broken, the villain can''t afford to pay."


    "It''s just a few litchi. After opening and checking, close it again. The constable should bear all the consequences." Constable Xingyang said involuntarily, waved his hand, and immediately a group of constables came forward and opened the refrigerated carriage.


    "Oh!"


    Suddenly a smell of decay came to his nose, and the constable on one side almost didn''t spit it out.


    "No, these lychees are broken!" the coachman said in horror.


    "It''s broken!" Constable Xingyang couldn''t help feeling distressed. You know, this is a hundred Wen and a kilo of litchi. How much should we lose! Although it was not his own money, he also felt a burst of flesh pain.


    "If this car breaks down, drive another car. If you delay the constable to eat... No, check, you can''t finish eating and go around." Constable Xingyang pretends to be a tiger.


    However, with the opening of another car of litchi, the same stench came again.


    "Why is it broken again!" the coachman said in horror. This cart of lychees is very valuable, but they can''t afford to pay for it as an ordinary coachman!


    Constable Xingyang was vaguely unhappy. If one car of lychees broke down, it might be an accident, but the other car of lychees also broke down, he had to be a little more cautious. He couldn''t help looking at the lychees of the remaining hundreds of carriages.


    "Pa Pa Pa!" as the litchi of a carriage was opened, it suddenly smelled, and all the litchi of hundreds of carriages were broken.


    "It''s not good!" suddenly everyone''s heart sank. The litchi of this carriage is worth 50 Guan, and there are hundreds of carriage litchi here, but it''s worth nearly 5000 Guan.


    The goods worth 5000 Guan were destroyed in the hands of Xingyang County Yamen. It''s not a small matter. It''s not something that a small Xingyang Constable can hold.


    "Go and invite the county magistrate!" Constable Xingyang''s face was embarrassed. I''m afraid this time things have made a big deal. Most of the goods transported on the official roads can be preserved for a long time. As for the most difficult goods, they are only fragile goods. It''s the first time to transport such perishable goods as litchi on such a large scale. Constable Xingyang is probably the first time to encounter such a thing.


    Xingyang county magistrate came in a hurry. When he saw the smelly litchi, his face sank. He looked at a group of Coachmans and said in a cold voice: "as far as I know, the Mohist School transported litchi either in a hurry, or kept adding ice to preserve litchi. Why did you use an ordinary horse cart to transport such precious litchi."


    The chief coachman was shocked and said, "add ice, the master didn''t order it! Just want us to transport it to Luoyang in the shortest time, and there will be someone to pick it up."


    "No, I''m in the trap!" the Xingyang county magistrate said with a gloomy face. "Mojiazi must have calculated that when he arrived in Xingyang, he would let this batch of litchi stop, deliberately send a large number of broken litchi, and deliberately lure us to take the bait."


    "We''ll only keep litchi for one day. Even if these litchi are broken, we can''t rely on it!" Constable Xingyang argued.


    "Now that mojiazi has made the Yin move, do you think he will reason for you?" the Xingyang county magistrate forcibly pressed the panic in his heart. Just as they do not reason, they detain the goods of Mojia village, and mojiazi will fight back mercilessly.


    "What should I do?" Constable Xingyang said in horror. For a long time, he had no fear. First, he relied on the Zheng family. Second, he abused his power. Finally, he said that he was wrong and did not cause losses on the goods. This time, the loss of 5000 yuan litchi was in his hands. He couldn''t wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River!


    "This time, it depends on whether the five surnames and seven hopes can keep us." the Xingyang county magistrate took a deep breath. Once he didn''t care about the loss of 5000 Guan, he was cruel enough to let them take the bait.


    With the popularity of lychees in Chang''an City, the response of the whole Chang''an city is excellent. The lychees transported by Mohist refrigerated carriage have excellent taste, almost the same as those just picked from the tree, which gives people endless aftertaste. In particular, they are deeply loved by the ladies of Chang''an city. Many people are looking forward to the next batch of lychees.


    However, with the news, the whole Chang''an city was fried in an instant,


    "The litchi of dozens of carriages are all broken in Xingyang!"


    As soon as the news came out, Chang''an city was immediately excited. It was a goods worth thousands of dollars. It was so forcibly destroyed.


    The grudges between the Mohist family and the five surnames and seven hopes have long been spreading in Chang''an city. Before Xingyang intercepted the goods of the Mohist village, people were just watching the excitement. After all, the goods of the Mohist village were still there and finally brought them back. However, this time is different. This batch of litchi was forcibly destroyed. Although I don''t know the specific process, this batch of litchi worth 5000 is bad in Xingyang. People attribute the culprit to the Zheng family in Xingyang.


    For a while, the Zheng family in Xingyang, who called themselves the home of poetry and etiquette and ranked among the five surnames and Qiwang, was notorious in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 994

    Five thousand Guan is five million yuan, which is not a small amount. Even if it is put into the court, it also needs the prime minister to make a decision. For a moment, there was a lot of rumors in Chang''an city.


    "I inform your majesty that Wei Chen impeached the county magistrate and Constable of Xingyang and intercepted the past business trips without reason, resulting in the destruction of 5000 yuan worth of Litchi in Xingyang." in the Tai Chi hall, Feng Zhidai was filled with indignation and said that litchi is a specialty of Lingnan. As a representative of Lingnan, it is most appropriate for him to come forward.


    "False accusation! It''s really a false accusation. According to Wei Chen, these lychees were detained in Xingyang for only one day. Why did they suddenly break down? In my opinion, the Mohist school had premeditated and deliberately planted a frame up." an aristocratic family official retorted with indignation.


    "Litchi is not suitable for storage. It is said that the color changes in one day and the aroma changes in two days..." Feng Zhidai proudly popularized the knowledge of litchi to the public.


    "Nonsense! As far as I know, most of the lychees transported by the Mohists are kept fresh with ice. They won''t go bad if they are detained for only one day."


    "It is said that the Mohist method of preserving litchi can keep litchi for one month."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    One after another, officials offered advice to the Xingyang county magistrate to fight against injustice.


    "I would like to ask you why the magistrate of Xingyang County detained litchi without any reason. As we all know, litchi is a fresh fruit, which is not easy to store. There is a risk that it will be broken for one more day. The caravan transports litchi day and night, and dare not delay at all, but detained it in Xingyang for a whole day without any reason. Otherwise, I''m afraid it would have reached Chang''an City long ago." Feng Zhidai sneered.


    "Ah!"


    The officials of the aristocratic family were surprised and immediately realized that the purpose of the Jiangnan aristocratic family was not to detain these lychees for no reason, but to focus on detaining business trips. Xingyang is a transportation hub and an important place for the five surnames and seven hopes to clamp down on the throat of the Mojia village. If the Xingyang county magistrate is replaced, I''m afraid the Mojia Zi will be like a tiger roaring in the mountain forest and a dragon into the sea.


    What worries Wuxing Qiwang more is that the Jiangnan aristocratic family has helped the Mohist family so much. Has it not been moved by the so-called Jiangnan development and decided to cooperate with the Mohist family.


    Many senior officials with five surnames and seven hopes could not help looking at the courtiers, the foremost Duke of the state of song Xiao Yu, but Xiao Yu was unmoved.


    Although the power of the five surnames and seven hopes is powerful, the Jiangnan aristocratic family is one of its own. There is no difference in territory and strength. There are too many five surnames and seven hopes, and the potential is huge. Now the Mohist school just makes up for this weakness for them.


    After Xiao Rui''s return, coupled with the craze of lychee sales in Chang''an City, Xiao Rui has strengthened the prospect of large-scale development in the south of the Yangtze River.


    Xiao Yu, who has experienced the world, doesn''t understand that compared with the illusory promise of five surnames and seven hopes, the Jiangnan aristocratic family is more willing to believe in the Mohist school with sincere and real intentions.


    "The fate of Jiangnan can only be controlled in his own hands." Xiao Xuan firmly said that after he was a royal family, after the fall of the dynasty, the two dynasties naturally knew the importance of controlling his own destiny. If the Mohist School cooperated with Jiangnan, he would be on an equal footing with the five surnames and seven hopes as envisaged by the Mohist school. If the Jiangnan aristocratic family gave up this opportunity.


    Even if one day, Wuxing Qiwang keeps his promise to help Jiangnan, how can he not start secretly? At that time, the Jiangnan aristocratic family can only become a vassal of Wuxing Qiwang, and the rise of Jiangnan is just a joke.


    "Xingyang is a transportation hub, and routine inspection of goods is common," an aristocratic family official explained.


    "Often? As far as I know, Xingyang county magistrate has detained the goods of Mojia village for no reason, not once or twice. Besides Mojia village, even the business trips to and from are made more difficult by it. It''s too angry to say anything." a Jiangnan imperial censor angrily denounced.


    "Is this serious?" Li Shimin frowned.


    "However, this is absolutely true, especially the Constable of Xingyang County, who eats, drinks and takes a card. All business trips through Xingyang will be skinned." the Jiangnan censor angrily said.


    Constable Xingyang thinks he has the support of the Zheng family. In addition, he often intercepts Mohist goods, which makes him extremely inflated. He even took the opportunity to extend his evil hand to ordinary business trips, and then intercepted Mohist village goods. He secretly attacked business trips. It''s very ugly to eat. It''s strange not to be caught.


    "That''s just what Xingyang Constable called. I''ll send a letter to reprimand the Xingyang county magistrate and ask him to investigate it immediately." the aristocratic family officials immediately abandoned the car and prepared to abandon the abandoned son of Xingyang constable and try their best to keep the Xingyang county magistrate.


    "I''m afraid what one person has done is wrong in the upper beam and wrong in the lower beam. I''m afraid Constable Xingyang can''t do such a bad act without the connivance of Xingyang county magistrate. According to me, the chief culprit must be the Xingyang county magistrate. It''s his connivance step by step that led to the tragedy of the destruction of 5000 goods." the imperial historian of Jiangnan bit to death.


    In an instant, five officials surnamed Qiwang quarreled with officials of Jiangnan aristocratic family. This time, although there were not many officials of Jiangnan aristocratic family, they mastered the handle of Xingyang county. One tried to pull the Xingyang county magistrate into the water, the other wanted to abandon his soldiers and protect his car, and the two sides couldn''t argue.


    "I respectfully request your Majesty''s ruling." seeing the dispute, Jiangnan officials turned to Li Shimin and asked for orders.


    Suddenly, the Manchu officials calmed down. The reason why they could boldly block the vehicles of the Mohist school was to take advantage of the loopholes in the laws of the Tang Dynasty. The county magistrate really had the right to check the right of business travel. Even if it finally came to Li Shimin, they also had room for defense.


    However, the aristocratic family officials did not expect that the Mohist family first set off the litchi fever in Chang''an City, let the Jiangnan aristocratic family get on the thief ship, and then used the bad litchi pit of hundreds of carriages to kill Xingyang. The nominal loss of 5000 Guan instantly let the Jiangnan aristocratic family find a handle. This time, I''m afraid the Xingyang county magistrate will not be so easy to pass.


    Li Shimin sat firmly in the Dragon chair and didn''t give orders in a hurry. Instead, he turned his head and looked aside at Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Aiqing, as you can see, what should be done about this matter."


    Suddenly, everyone''s eyes focused on Xiao Yu, the Duke of the state of song. Xiao Yu turned his head and looked around. He saw the hopeful eyes of many Jiangnan aristocratic families, as well as the warning and anxious look of aristocratic family officials.


    Xiao Xuan proudly said: "Marquis Mo once said that no farmers are unstable, no workers are rich, no businesses are alive, and continuous business travel can enable the Tang Dynasty to exchange needs. Business travel can enable the people of Chang''an to taste the tribute oranges of Yazhou and litchi in Lingnan. If business travel is cut off, not only fruit farmers are busy for a year, but they can only watch the fruit rot on the branches and get nothing, while the people of Chang''an can no longer enjoy the delicious food and go to court Also lost a lot of taxes. "


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "what Xiao Aiqing said is reasonable."


    "As far as I know, it''s not an exception that Xingyang County withholds business trips for no reason. The world is like the Xingyang county magistrate. I don''t know how many people. Please check it thoroughly," Xiao said proudly.


    "Wow!"


    Suddenly, the aristocratic family officials couldn''t help but be in an uproar. They didn''t expect that Xiao Xiang dared to disobey the will of the five surnames Qiwang and openly support the Mo family. What''s more, they didn''t expect that Xiao Xiang was so cruel that he was not satisfied with taking the Xingyang county magistrate and even had to operate on other five surnames Qiwang officials.


    You know, in order to encircle and suppress the MOH family, the five surnames and seven hopes used many means that are not rare. In addition, I''m afraid few of them can stand the investigation.


    Li Shimin smiled mysteriously and pushed the boat along the river. "In that case, let Xiao Aiqing check it!"


    Many Jiangnan officials couldn''t help cheering in their hearts. Xiao Yu was the Jiangnan leader who personally expressed his position and cooperated with the Mohist school, and received the support of his majesty. Isn''t it that the Jiangnan development can be carried out smoothly? At the thought of the huge benefits of the Jiangnan development, many Jiangnan officials couldn''t help but be excited.


    Compared with the excited officials in Jiangnan, the officials with five surnames and seven hopes suddenly lost their farts. If Jiangnan and Mohism unite, they used so much political resources and so much financial resources, but they failed in the end. This time, the officials with five surnames and seven hopes suffered heavy losses.


    The official surnamed Wu Qiwang looked at Xiao Yu in disbelief. He didn''t understand why Xiao Yu united with the Mohists. You know, they gave Xiao Yu more promises in private.


    Xiao Yu lowered his head and lowered his eyelids. Wu Xing Qiwang promised him more. However, his Xiao family is based in Jiangnan. Without the strength and influence of Wu Xing Qiwang, he is just a leader elected by Jiangnan aristocratic family. Without the support of Jiangnan aristocratic family, his status will be more embarrassing.


    Of course, there is a more important reason, that is, Li Shimin''s position. Li Shimin doesn''t want to see the defeat of the Mohist family, let alone the dominance of the five surnames and seven hopes, while the Jiangnan aristocratic family is an important chess piece against the five surnames and seven hopes. This is the reason why Xiao Yu doesn''t hesitate to stand on this side.


    With the help of Mohist ink technology, Jiangnan can get the support of the emperor, and is expected to compete with the five surnamed Qiwang chamber. This time, Jiangnan must be the biggest beneficiary.

 Chapter 995

    "Five surnames and seven hopes are defeated!"


    The news of Tingyi soon spread all over Chang''an city. No one thought that it was mojiazi who laughed to the end. With the intervention of Jiangnan forces, mojiazi unexpectedly reversed the situation.


    "I''m afraid this is the first failure of five surnames and seven hopes in thousands of years, and it''s convinced." a scholar couldn''t help sighing.


    How proud of the existence of the five surnames Qiwang, the seven hope family owners jointly came to the door and personally solicited the Mohist school. Everyone thought that the Mohist son would certainly accept and worship. However, they didn''t think of the proud character of the Mohist son and directly refused the solicitation of the five surnames Qiwang.


    Then five surnames and seven hopes became angry and joined hands to encircle and suppress Mohism. Such a huge political and economic strength almost plunged Mohist village into the biggest dilemma in history, with the intention of forcing Mohist Zi to yield.


    However, they still underestimated the pride of the Mohists. They not only stubbornly resisted to the end, but also repeatedly made strange plans to fight back. They also made the Mohist village hold tightly together and carry it to the end with five surnames and seven hopes.


    Finally, he personally planned a national policy like the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, attracted the help of officials in the south of the Yangtze River, and finally broke the encirclement and suppression of five surnames and seven hopes.


    "This time, I''m afraid the five surnames Qiwang lost his wife and lost his soldiers!" many Chang''an people laughed. It''s suspected that the five surnames Qiwang joined hands to encircle and suppress the Mohist school, but who would have thought that the Mohist family would turn over in the end.


    Defeat Wuxing Qiwang!


    I''m afraid it would have been a big joke in the past, but today it has come true.


    "Knowledge is wealth, knowledge is power!" Kong Yingda murmured.


    I''m afraid these two words are the real voice of the Mohist family. With the power of one village, the Mohist family can resist five surnames and seven hopes, relying on nothing more than knowledge.


    A green dragon''s secret skill has brought great wealth to the Mohist village. Each Mohist''s ink skill gives the Mohists the power to resist the five surnames and seven hopes. Since Mohism can surpass the five surnames and seven hopes, so can Confucianism. This time, Mohism shows the power of knowledge to the world. He believes that the trend of learning among students all over the world must rise sharply today. Mohism can overcome the five surnames and seven hopes with knowledge. Even if ordinary students are not as magical as Mohism, they can use knowledge to change their life.


    "News has come from Qufu to fully support the construction of the library!" Kong Desheng took Qufu''s letter and couldn''t help comforting himself. The benefits brought by the library can make the Kong family''s reputation higher. Naturally, the Kong family in Qufu can''t sit still.


    The full support of the Confucius family in Qufu brought not only money, but also countless Confucian children to Chang''an city. In this way, the human and money factors restricting the library were easily solved.


    Chai family.


    Chai Lingwu lay down on the stool honestly, and the middle-aged man on one side was waiting for him with a ruler in hand.


    "Second uncle, you can lower your hand!" Chai Lingwu said with lingering fear as he looked at the three finger wide ruler.


    The second uncle of the Chai family said with a smile, "why do you regret it? It was your idea to purchase from the Mojia village at the beginning. If you don''t get this meal, the Chai family can''t pass the customs! You know, the goods of the Chai family are still being detained in Longxi, including the 36 courses of Qinglong genuine medicine you have filled your private pockets."


    Chai Lingwu suddenly looked bitter. The reason why he took the risk to purchase from Mojia village was that he liked the value of Qinglong real medicine in the western regions. Originally, he thought the family would behave, but he didn''t expect to be beaten.


    "Just fight, but all the profits of Qinglong real medicine belong to me!" Chai Lingwu said with a gnash of teeth.


    "I knew you didn''t suffer, and I should do it on behalf of the family!" second uncle Chai had some flesh pain, but he readily agreed. If he didn''t give an explanation to the five surnames and seven hopes, I''m afraid the Chai family''s goods can''t reach the western regions. The Chai family, who has tasted the benefits of the Silk Road, is unwilling to let go of its great wealth every year.


    As Uncle Chai raised the ruler high, he saw that the board was about to fall on Chai Lingwu, and suddenly a dignified voice came.


    "Stop, don''t fight again!"


    A voice suddenly appeared and stopped uncle Chai''s board from falling.


    "Dad!" Chai Lingwu was overjoyed when he heard the voice. His own father still loved him.


    "Elder brother, I know you love Lingwu, but if you don''t give an explanation to Wu Qiwang, I''m afraid it won''t go well!" second uncle Chai was dissatisfied with Chaishao. If the Li family in Longxi didn''t let him go, his interests would be damaged.


    "Five surnames and seven looks!" Chai Shao sneered. "From now on, five surnames and seven looks are no longer invincible. Even the Mo family can surpass him. Why should my Chai family be afraid of it."


    "Mohist son won!"


    "Five surnames and seven hopes are defeated!"


    Chai Lingwu and second uncle Chai exclaimed at the same time.


    Chai Lingwu nodded and said, "yes, today''s Tingyi has come out. Xiao Yu, the Duke of the state of song, has obtained the will of his majesty to thoroughly investigate the blocking of the trade route by the five surnames and seven hopes. This time, the Mohist School benefited from the help of the South of the Yangtze River. It can be said that it has extricated itself from difficulties. The five surnames and seven hopes have a headache. Where else are you trying to embarrass our Chai family!"


    They were like a dream. Even the deep-rooted Chai family in Guanzhong had to look down at the five surnames and seven, but they didn''t expect to be defeated by Mohist Zi.


    Chai Lingwu sat on the stool and was glad that he didn''t escape the beating. Only his face was incredible. It was Wuxing Qiwang, who dared not resist even if he was willing to get a meal. Now he was defeated by the hand of Mohist Zi of his age.


    "Doesn''t that mean that the rise of Jiangnan is a foregone conclusion!" murmured second uncle Chai. Even he knew that if it was based on his character, even he could see that the rise of Jiangnan will happen sooner or later according to the strategy of Jiangnan development designed by Mo Jiazi. After all, its natural advantage is too great.


    Chai Shao nodded and said, "however, so the Chai family''s caravan decided to divide one and go to the south of the Yangtze River."


    "Going to Jiangnan! Isn''t that completely offending the five surnames and seven hopes?" Uncle Chai was surprised. If the Chai family went to Jiangnan, it must be offended by the five surnames and seven hopes. "


    "So what? What we Chai family need to get close to is not the five surnames and seven looks, but the royal family. Since your majesty is willing to see the rise of Jiangnan and the revival of Mohism, we naturally have to try our best to satisfy your majesty." Chai Shaoruo pointed out.


    Chai Lingwu suddenly realized that no wonder when he proposed to purchase from Mojia village, few people in the family opposed him. It turned out that he was used as a gun.


    Not only did the Chai family see Li Shimin''s intention, but more people noticed that in the struggle between the Mohist family and the five surnames and seven hopes, there was another force that virtually controlled the situation, that is the royal family.


    If in this fight, although Li Shimin has always been a wall watcher, he has not even made a statement once, but he has let the five surnames and seven looks cast a rat''s taboo, dare not lay their hands in Luoyang, Chang''an, and reserve a little breathing room for the Mo family.


    Another is the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, whose benefits are well known. It can not only greatly increase the wealth of the Tang Dynasty, but also maintain the balance between the north and the south. Li Shimin is naturally attracted by the means of checks and balances. However, the finance of the Tang Dynasty makes it impossible for him to strongly support the south of the Yangtze River.


    The cooperation between Mohism and Jiangnan is Li Shimin''s test to Jiangnan. If the Jiangnan aristocratic family dare not resist the five surnames and seven hopes, Li Shimin is naturally extremely disappointed with Jiangnan officials and naturally can''t support Jiangnan officials. Fortunately, neither Mohism nor Jiangnan has disappointed Li Shimin. Now everything is just Li Shimin''s pushing the boat with the current.


    Now all this is in order. Hundreds of families fight against aristocratic families. The Confucian national education promotes the rise of common people to break through the control of the five surnames and seven hopes over the Imperial Hall. The Mohist school promotes the great development of the south of the Yangtze River and breaks the control of the five surnames and seven hopes over the imperial economy. Everything is developing in the direction expected by Li Shimin.

 Chapter 996

    Jiangnan aristocratic family acted very quickly. Under a series of hard evidence, Xingyang county magistrate and Constable were all killed in one pot. However, Jiangnan aristocratic family did not stop, but chased and beat hard. Then almost all officials on the line from Xingyang to Hankou were combed. Officials close to five surnames and seven outlooks were replaced or stepped down, and all Jiangnan officials or neutral officials were replaced, This is the only big case since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.


    So far, the route from Chang''an to Jiangnan has been completed, and Mohism and Jiangnan aristocratic families have finally opened the lifeline of Jiangnan development.


    However, Xiao Yu didn''t kill all the five surnames and seven hopes. He just opened the business road from Chang''an to Hankou and stopped. On the one hand, he didn''t want to offend the five surnames and seven hopes to death. On the other hand, he also prevented the Mo family from doing it, so that the Mo family had only one way to the south of the Yangtze River.


    Outside the east city gate, a sea of people has long been gathered. Everyone knows that today is the day when the Mohists go to the south of the Yangtze River. They come to see the excitement.


    Moreover, this time, not only the Mojia village family went to Jiangnan, but also invited the workshop with five surnames and seven hopes to stand on the side of Mojia village during the encirclement and suppression. It can be said that the responders gathered.


    "The Mohist school is coming!" suddenly there was a cry of surprise from the crowd. A group of Mohist children gathered at the east city gate. Behind them, carriages full of goods followed,


    Headed by the most stable Mohist school, Mohist University, it can be seen that Mohist village attaches importance to the south of the Yangtze River this time.


    "Mo Da is the top peasant master of Mo family. It is very proficient in increasing production, transplantation and grafting. This time, Jiangnan is blessed."


    "It is said that the motorcade behind the Mexican university is full of the most precious cotton seeds, and it is necessary to plant a large number of cotton in Songjiang Prefecture." a well-informed citizen gossip said.


    After several generations of planting, a large number of cotton seeds have been cultivated. A large number of these cotton seeds are in the hands of the Mohists. Especially in winter, cotton jackets and quilts are popular and expensive. Planting cotton can benefit several times more than planting grain. Planting cotton is a business that can earn no loss. In order to support the large-scale development of the south of the Yangtze River, the Mohists did not lose their capital.


    "Cotton can only be grown in the north. How could the Mohists grow cotton in Songjiangfu?" someone wondered.


    "You don''t know. Cotton can also be planted in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the more important reason why Mohism chose Songjiang Prefecture to plant cotton is that Songjiang Prefecture''s textile is popular. Women workers all make a living by weaving and have exquisite skills. Otherwise, in a year and a half, our Chang''an city will be able to see the exquisite white stacks produced by Songjiang Prefecture." a businessman sighed.


    "The Mohists are laying out the weaving industry!"


    They suddenly realized the layout of Mohist school. Mohist school with cotton seed in hand really has a natural advantage in the weaving industry.


    "Doctors also go to the south of the Yangtze River!"


    With the departure of the Mohist children, a team of motorcade with a doctor''s logo appeared behind, led by Mo Wu.


    "It is said that there is a prevalence of schistosomiasis in Jiangnan, with nearly one million patients. The doctor Mo Wu went south this time to find a way to treat schistosomiasis."


    "Schistosomiasis!" anyone who has heard of schistosomiasis can''t help feeling cold. Schistosomiasis is one of the most terrible diseases in the south of the Yangtze River. Once infected with schistosomiasis, it is difficult to cure. It is extremely painful. Blood sucking worm disease has been called demagogue by the people in the south of the Yangtze River for thousands of years.


    "I hope the doctors will succeed and let the people in the south of the Yangtze River be free from poison." many people prayed one after another.


    With the arrival of the motorcade of Mohists and doctors, followed by the huge motorcade of Chang''an City, everyone knows that there will be such great business opportunities in the development of Jiangnan, and Chang''an merchants with strong business atmosphere will not miss this excellent opportunity.


    Of course, this opportunity is impossible for businessmen and workshops in Mojia village, which makes those people regret.


    Outside the gate of Chang''an City, Xiao Rui and Merton go side by side to see off the Mohists in the south of the Yangtze River. Looking at the huge team, Xiao Rui can''t help sighing in his heart that it''s really right to cooperate with the Mohists this time.


    "Xiao thanks the Mohists for their great help. However, when the Mohists go to the south of the Yangtze River, although there are two senior generals, Mo DA and Mo Wu, who are personally accompanying them, Mr. Mo Da is proficient in farming, and Mo Wu doctor is proficient in medical skills. Although it is needed by the south of the Yangtze River, Xiao doesn''t see anyone proficient in ink skills." Xiao Rui said with a puzzled face. The most powerful thing of the Mohists is the secret skills of the Mohists, However, among the leading figures of Mohism this time, he did not see talents proficient in ink technology. Without the blessing of ink technology, the rise of Jiangnan would be far from effective.


    Merton laughed and said, "brother Xiao is really sharp eyed. There are no leaders who are proficient in ink technology in this team, but Mohism has long been a top Mohist master in Jiangnan."


    Xiao Rui couldn''t help but wonder: "I don''t know which Mohist sage brother Mo said."


    Merton Lang said, "this man is also a person in the south of the Yangtze River. Yang Siqi, a member of the dengling family of the Mohist school."


    "It''s this person!" Xiao Rui''s heart moved. He heard about Yang Siqi. At the beginning, Deng Ling''s family entered Chang''an and openly challenged the Mo family. This matter was noisy.


    "Yes, master Yang''s ink skills, needless to say, coupled with the mechanical assistance of the Mohist village, will certainly make the ink skills everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River." Merton nodded. First, Yang Siqi is a person in the south of the Yangtze River, which is easier to be accepted by the south of the Yangtze River. Second, the three veins of the Mohist family are now the only one of the dengling family, and Merton has no intention to support the dengling family.


    "Brother Mo has an open mind and ignores past grievances, which is really admirable to Xiao." Xiao Rui said with admiration. Merton doesn''t care about the gratitude and resentment with Deng Ling''s family, fully supports Deng Ling''s family and is bent on seeking the revival of Mohism. This mind alone is admirable.


    Merton smiled and said nothing. After the five surnames and seven looks encircled and suppressed the Mohist school, he naturally knew that the current Mohist village was the target of public criticism. Once the Mohist village declined, the revival of the Mohist school must be in vain, but in this storm, the Xiangfu family was hardly affected, which made Merton determined to support the third vein of the Mohist family, the dengling family, and the three veins went hand in hand, In the future, no matter which one prospers, it will also be the revival of Mohism.


    As for the competition among the other three veins, from Merton''s point of view, the Tang Dynasty is so huge that it can accommodate the competition among the three veins. Not to mention that now the Mojia village is the earliest and has the upper hand. If it loses the other two veins in the future, it can''t blame others.


    "Young master, we are ready to finish the Mohist school, but we can start at any time!" Mo DA and Mo Wu came together.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction: "this time, the Mohist school will go to the south of the Yangtze River. You should let the world see the clank and arrogance of my Mohist school."


    "Yes, young master!" Mo DA and Mo Wu got up and said.


    With the wave of Merton''s big hand, the huge team of Mohists set out slowly, from along the brick road to Luoyang, Xingyang, South to Hankou, and finally across the Yangtze River and down to the south of the Yangtze River.

 Chapter 997

    "This is the way of the world today. Everyone knows that the litchi with a value of 5000 is just a frame up by Merton. Even I refuse to publish it in the ink journal, which has become the reason for the criticism of the court officials." in the ink journal, Tian Mou said with a gloomy face.


    When he agreed to be the editor in chief of Mohist magazine, he had received the promise of Mohist Zi to publish only the truth. Even though he knew that publishing the destruction of 5000 Guan litchi in Xingyang would be of great benefit to Mohist, he still refused to publish it because he thought it was not the whole truth.


    Mo San reluctantly looked at the old-fashioned Tian Mou and said, "master Tian is too worried. This world is not all black or white. Why did the means of encircling and suppressing the Mojia village by five surnames and seven hopes come to the table? However, the Mojia matter is just a report for a report."


    Tian Mou was suddenly silent and still insisted on his concept. "


    Mo San continued: "of course, the world is not a reversal of black and white. All the five thousand pass litchi are broken. Instead of letting the escorting coachman lose a penny, he settled the wages in full. The reason why Lord Xiao investigated the Xingyang county magistrate is not the five thousand pass litchi, but the corruption of the law, the laxity of the emperor and the blocking of the trade route. Everyone deserves it and is not wronged at all."


    "So, only Mojia village was damaged." Tian Mou sneered.


    Mo San said carelessly, "those litchi were transported back by carriage from Lingnan. On the way, they were refrigerated with cold well water at most. What they paid was just some freight. This is the whole truth. I don''t know whether the master is satisfied!"


    Tian Mou was stunned. He immediately burst into laughter and burst into tears.


    "The Mohist family is worthy of being the Mohist family!" Tian Mou admires sincerely. Although the Mohist family used tricks, it did not violate the Mohist concept.


    Mo San said proudly, "that''s nature. My young master is the strongest supporter of Mo Sheng''s idea."


    Tian Mou did not refute this time. He picked up the ink magazine that had been printed on one side, looked at a long poem on it, and sighed: "I hope Merton''s poetry is like a man, let me see a proud Mohist!"


    This long poem was left to Mo magazine when Merton wrote a persuasive poem for Confucianism. Tian Mou has never found an opportunity to publish it. Now he thinks the most appropriate time has finally come.


    With the publication of the new issue of Mohist magazine, the news of Mohism''s going to Jiangnan suddenly spread in the Tang Dynasty.


    "The Mohist is worthy of the Mohist family and has not succumbed in the end!" all those who read the Mohist magazine sighed in their hearts. The five surnames and seven hopes were the existence of the Tang Dynasty and worked together to encircle and suppress the Mohist village, but the Mohist family finally withstood the pressure and killed a way out.


    "The Mohists were so proud that they didn''t give in, so what happened? They finally lost the south of the Yangtze River!" some people also felt sorry for the Mohists'' coming to the south of the Yangtze River. In this era, people''s impression that the south of the Yangtze River is a place of exile, the most desolate, and the Mohists'' coming to the south of the Yangtze River is no less than losing.


    "That''s natural. Those who can write this poem must be proud and Clank!" a scholar in white stared at the new poems of Mozi in Ink magazine, and couldn''t help but stand tall and read aloud.


    "An Neng is so powerful that I can''t be happy!"


    Even if a scholar in white just reads out his voice, he can feel a surge of pride in his heart.


    With the upsurge of Mohist''s going to the south of the Yangtze River and then Chang''an City, a poem published in Mohist magazine suddenly burst into fire, that is, the new poem of Mohist Zi, sleepwalking Tianmu Yin farewell.


    "Merton''s poem is quite similar to Mr. Wuliu''s failure to bow down for five bushels of rice." a Confucian scholar admired that Mr. Wuliu is Tao Yuanming. He once said that I can''t bow down for five bushels of rice. Boxing is evil for villains in the countryside!


    "But also! One is not to bow down to villains for five bushels of rice, and the other is not to bow down to dignitaries against their heart. Mozi expressed his ambition with poetry. We really admire the same arrogance."


    "If someone else wrote this poem, we would think that this person is a person fishing for fame and reputation. However, the Mohist school really practiced this poem. The strength of the family spared no effort to resist the five surnames and seven hopes, but we still straightened our waist and waist. It is really a clank iron bone."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a while, Merton''s new poem "sleepwalking, grandma chanting goodbye" combined with the experience of Mozi fighting against five surnames and seven looks during this period of time, and instantly conquered all readers.


    "The Mohist school is really a scholar''s pride! Those officials who look at the five surnames and seven and bow down have lost the scholar''s face." many people sarcastically said.


    This time, in the crisis of Mojia village, too many officials violated their conscience, stood on the side of the five surnames and seven looks, and took the opportunity to please and flatter the five surnames and seven looks, which simply lost the backbone of the literati. With this poem, Mojia Zi can be said to beat the officials who fell to the five surnames and seven looks in the face.


    "The Mohist family is really a model for our generation!" in the Imperial College, a group of weak imperial college students applauded one after another. They are young and impulsive, and they don''t like the faces of dignitaries. Now the Mohist family talks about their aspirations with poetry.


    "In my opinion, this poem is not only the last sentence, but also the other verses."


    "Tianmu ran across the sky and pulled out the five mountains to cover the red city. It is said that the Mohists had never been to Tianmu Mountain. When they heard the legend of Tianmu Mountain, they dreamed of climbing Tianmu Mountain." a scholar said mysteriously what he heard.


    "How could there be such a thing?" the people were surprised, but then suddenly, it was only an hour to go to Yumen, spend their honeymoon in Luoyang when they grew up, and I''m afraid they haven''t really been to the south of the Yangtze River.


    "I want to dream of Wu Yue and fly through the Jinghu moon overnight. The lake moon shines on me and sends me to Shanxi. Although mojiazi hasn''t been to Tianmu Mountain, he has recently devoted himself to the development of the south of the Yangtze River. Seeing the legend of Tianmu Mountain, he must think day and dream night. The place of Wu Yue is not the place where Suhu lake is familiar with the world." a scholar in the south of the Yangtze River strongly supported him.


    Everyone exclaimed at the magic, but I''m afraid they also knew that this might seem the most reasonable explanation.


    "The neon is the clothing, the wind is the horse, and the king of the clouds comes and goes one after another. The tiger drums, the harp, the Luan returns, and the immortal people are as numb as a hemp. The Mohist must have a vivid memory of that night before he can write such an immersive fairyland."


    This poem is a rare long poem of mojiazi. Some marvel at the beauty of mojiazi''s poems, some marvel at the magic of mojiazi''s dreams, and some are impressed by mojiazi''s literary pride.


    Even Kong Desheng could not help sighing when he saw this poem: "after all, the Confucius built a library and cultivated countless literati, while the Mohists gave the literati a strong and proud character."


    With the fermentation of time, this poem of Mohism spread more and more widely. For the officials of the Tang Dynasty who pay most attention to fame, this poem is a great irony.


    However, all the officials who participated in the encirclement and suppression of mojiazi looked embarrassed. Although they were attached to the five surnames and seven hopes, they were definitely officials of the Tang Dynasty. They couldn''t hang their faces when they were exposed in public.


    In addition to Li Shimin''s obvious position, the alliance of Wuxing Qiwang to encircle and suppress Mohism gradually tends to collapse. Although Mohists no longer try to transport goods to places outside Hankou, Chang''an, some adventurous merchants took the opportunity to carry some Mohist products, but found that officials close to Wuxing Qiwang turned a blind eye as if they didn''t see them.


    With the fermentation of public opinion, the situation of five surnames and seven hopes encircling and suppressing mojiazi has a faint trend of collapse.

 Chapter 998

    "I''m sorry! My master hasn''t returned yet. Please come back another day!" a tenant said outside a luxury house.


    "Why don''t you even want to talk to me!" Zheng Chang said angrily.


    The porter quickly apologized and said, "young master Zheng is very thoughtful. My master really hasn''t returned. Otherwise, I''m afraid he would have come out to meet young master Zheng if he heard him come to the door in person."


    Zheng Chang didn''t believe this. He was about to lose his temper, but Zheng Bo stopped him and pulled him back.


    "It''s ungrateful. When I asked for the Zheng family, I was so humble. Now I suddenly have pride. Now I dare to shut the door to my young master." Zheng''s anger can''t rest. This is the first time he hasn''t known to shut the door. It''s a great humiliation for him to keep the wind and water flowing all the time.


    Zheng Bo said helplessly, "these hypocrites value their face most. A poem by the Mohist School embarrassed them. Now they naturally avoid us like snakes and scorpions."


    "Mojia Zi!" Zheng Chang heard about the Mojia Zi. He was angry and didn''t fight once. He and Mojia Zi were in a stalemate. However, he didn''t expect that Mojia Zi first concealed the sky and sent a batch of litchi by sea to hook up with the Jiangnan aristocratic family, which made him angry and ordered not to let a litchi enter Chang''an City, but he didn''t expect to fall into the tricks of Mojia Zi again, The Zheng family suffered from bad litchi with hundreds of carriages!


    He was the one who presided over the encirclement and suppression of the mojiazi in Chang''an City, and he was also the litchi who ordered the interception of the mojiazi. This time, he was to blame. Each of the five surnames and seven hopes pointed to his incompetence.


    In addition, the saying of the Mohist school that an Neng can destroy the eyebrows and bow down to be a powerful person has made many officials avoid him like snakes and scorpions, which makes him have the power of five surnames and seven hopes. He calls wind and rain and everyone flatters. He has become a person who hates ghosts and hates ghosts overnight.


    "If you don''t have the ability of Mohist school, you still want to learn the pride of Mohist school! A group of people fishing for fame and reputation." Zheng Chang said with hatred. Although he hates Mohist school now, he hates those hypocritical hypocrites even more.


    "Now the officials in Chang''an city are closed, and the officials in other places are open and closed. This time, the encirclement and suppression of the Mojia village by five surnames and seven hopes may become a joke. The owner has written and he will arrive in Chang''an to clean up the mess in a few days." Zheng Bo is powerless. As the main force to assist Zheng Chang, the Mojia village has escaped from its cage, He is naturally to blame.


    "My young master is not reconciled! This time we have been extremely careful, but who could have thought that the Mo family should be so sinister. Not to mention us, the other six families will come to the same end!" Zheng Chang said sadly and angrily.


    It''s not that he is incompetent, but that the Mo family is too rebellious. This time, he naturally knows that it''s important. He doesn''t play any young master''s temper. He always asks Zheng Bo carefully for something, but he failed in the end.


    Zheng Bo nodded. They already looked highly at the mojiazi and were on guard everywhere. Unexpectedly, they underestimated the mojiazi in the end.


    "Why is it so bright?" Zheng Guangyang sighed.


    "Ha ha!" suddenly there was a puff, and then there was a burst of laughter.


    "It''s really brazen. I dare to compare myself with Mo Jiazi."


    "If you are not the legitimate son of the Zheng family, I''m afraid you don''t even deserve to carry shoes for the Mo family!"


    "Even if he is the legitimate son of the Zheng family, how has the Mohist family ever looked at him!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    A voice of sarcasm came continuously.


    "Who is it? He is so bold that he laughs at me!" Zheng Chang is furious. Suddenly, he turns around and sees a group of aristocratic family children laughing behind him. Qin Huaiyu is the first one.


    "What''s the matter?" Chumo said insolently.


    "Why are you Zheng Chang defeated by Mohists? You''re afraid others won''t say it." Qin Huaiyu sneered.


    "It''s your senior brothers. Zheng has no grievances with you. I don''t know why your senior brothers hurt people behind their backs." Zheng Kuang said angrily. But he didn''t feel that Zheng Bo, who had already seen the bad situation, secretly pulled his clothes again.


    "No grievance, no revenge! Brother Zheng won''t forget the board we got hurt by the Zheng family!" Wei Chi Baolin squeezed his fist fiercely and looked at Zheng Chang unkindly.


    Qin Huaiyu took the lead, and a group of aristocratic family children surrounded him in a fan. Zheng Chang realized that it was bad. He suddenly found that most of the aristocratic family children in front of him were the children of the aristocratic family who had transported goods for the Mohist family. Finally, under the pressure of five surnames and seven hopes, everyone was beaten. Now I''m afraid they came for revenge.


    "You guys, have something to say. It''s not my idea for you to be beaten!" Zheng Chang changed his face and quickly softened his way.


    Qin Huaiyu said coldly, "even if it''s not your idea, your Zheng family hasn''t spared no effort. Who do you think I should count on for that fight."


    "If you dare to beat me, I''ll let his son have a taste of being beaten!" a son of an aristocratic family shouted and rushed up with his fist raised first.


    Suddenly, most of the children of the aristocratic family were generals. In addition, there were a large number of people. Even if Zheng Bo worked hard to protect him, Zheng Chang was knocked down in twos and threes.


    "I''m the top ten board!"


    "What are you? I have twenty sticks!"


    "I lay in bed for three days before I could move!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Thinking of his father''s "reality" one by one, the children of all aristocratic families couldn''t help but lay heavy hands and beat Zheng Chang repeatedly and screamed, which made him a little angry in his heart.


    "My thousand passes!" suddenly Qin Huaiyu said painfully.


    The children of many aristocratic families were stunned. They were beaten so easily that the income of each trip worth 1000 yuan was interrupted. However, they had never earned a lot of money, and the feeling of gain and loss made them even more painful.


    "It''s all your fault!" the children of aristocratic families cried out sadly. The fist and foot that had just stopped suddenly weighed a little.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When the Zheng family leader arrived in Chang''an City, he saw his son entangled like a mummy, and his face twitched.


    "Father... You have to be the... Lord for... The child!" Zheng Chang, who was covered with bandages, saw his father and cried bitterly. The children of the aristocratic family were so bullying that they beat him.


    "What do the princes say?" the Zheng family leader said coldly.


    "All the compensation gifts sent by the government said they would go home and discipline them severely." Zheng Bo hung his arm and said with a ashamed face.


    "It''s all excuses, father. You must not let them go." Zheng Chang hated.


    "Don''t let them go? If you hadn''t been tricked by the Mohists and let those people in the south of the Yangtze River succeed, you think someone would dare to touch you!" the master of the Zheng family said angrily.


    The Zheng family leader was furious. It was probably the first time in a thousand years that the legitimate son of the great Zheng family was beaten so miserably. If it were in the past, who would dare to move a finger of the five surnamed Qiwang son, but his legitimate son of the Zheng family was beaten in the street.


    All this shows that the hegemony of five surnames and seven outlooks has begun to fall.

 Chapter 999

    The five surnames and seven hopes have been inherited for thousands of years. The so-called big trees attract wind. The five surnames and seven hopes occupy too many resources and naturally get more people''s dissatisfaction.


    "The dissatisfaction of the royal family! The challenge of Jiangnan aristocratic family! The covet of emerging dignitaries in the court and the trouble of all schools of thought..." the master of Zheng family carefully calculated the potential enemies with five surnames and seven hopes, and his head was big for a while.


    Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng. Even if the five surnames and seven hopes have stabilized their position by marriage, however, there are still people in all dynasties who refuse to accept the five surnames and seven hopes, and aristocratic families continue to challenge the position of the five surnames and seven hopes. All the time, the five surnames and seven hopes have made great efforts to stabilize their position, while the rise of a hundred schools of thought has destroyed the painstaking operation of the five surnames and seven hopes.


    It was the MOH family who provoked the contention of a hundred schools of thought, but the MOH family''s Mohist skills were an urgent retreat for the five surnames and seven hopes, which made the five surnames and seven hopes hate and love the MOH family.


    "You should take good care of your illness first. The doctor said how long it would take to recover!" the master of the Zheng family looked at Zheng Chang and couldn''t help but soften his heart.


    Zheng Bowei: "the doctor said, he is not sure! He can only do his best."


    "It''s a bastard. Go to the best injured doctor immediately! If the young master makes a mistake, I''ll ask you." Leng hum, the master of the Zheng family, Zheng Chang is his favorite son. If something goes wrong, he will make everyone pay the price.


    Zheng Bo''s face was bitter and said, "master Hui, the best injured doctors in Chang''an city are doctors Hua Yuan and Mo Wu. Now Huashen doctor is far away in Luoyang, and doctor Mo Wu has gone to Jiangnan to cure schistosomiasis."


    Zheng''s family leader was stunned. Mo Wu went to the south of the Yangtze River in response to Merton''s great development of the south of the Yangtze River. It was caused by Wu''s surname and Qiwang. If Wu''s surname and Qiwang hadn''t encircled and suppressed the Mojia village, Zheng chang would not have been beaten, let alone Mo Wu went to the south of the Yangtze River.


    "However, the master can rest assured that although those dandies bullied the young master with more, they did not kill the young master. The young master suffered only skin trauma." Zheng Bo explained that although the dandies in Chang''an City were bastards, they just wanted Zheng Chang to experience their feelings of being beaten and did not kill them, otherwise with the martial arts of those generals, Even if there are ten Zheng Chang, I''m afraid it''s not enough.


    Zheng''s family leader looked at his son painfully. He was spoiled since childhood. Even he was not willing to move a finger. Now he was beaten so miserable, but he could only swallow it. After all, it was only the gratitude and resentment of the younger generation.


    "Take care of your injury first, and leave everything to your father." the Zheng family leader explained carefully, turned and left.


    The head of the Zheng family came forward in person, naturally better than the dandy Zheng Chang. With the continuous mediation, compromise and interest exchange of the head of the Zheng family, the precarious situation of the original five surnamed Qiwang gradually stabilized. After all, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, not to mention that the five surnamed Qiwang is only the first setback. It doesn''t hurt the muscles and bones at all, and the tiger''s power is still there.


    Of course, everyone knows that with the Mexican family breaking through the encirclement and suppression of the five surnames and seven hopes, all the abacus of the five surnames and seven hopes to subdue them failed, and the myth of the invincibility of the five surnames and seven hopes was finally broken.


    As night fell, Zheng''s family leader dragged himself back, thinking about the price paid to stabilize the situation, but there was no pain. Those emerging dignitaries simply took advantage of the fire and blackmailed a lot of benefits from him.


    "Father! Now that the Mo family has escaped from life, why should the Zheng family pay so much to maintain the failed situation?" Zheng Guangwen, who had just resumed walking, asked that the dandies were still modest and did not die. Their hands were all skin injuries. Zheng Chang was just suffering from a little skin and flesh.


    In Zheng Chang''s opinion, since the Mohist family has escaped from Shengtian, why should the Zheng family continue to fight against the Mohist village? If they fight the Mohist family in Chang''an and Luoyang alone, the daily losses of five surnames and seven hopes can not be estimated.


    The master of the Zheng family hates iron but not steel. He looks at his son and says helplessly: "That''s the difference between you and Mozi. Mozi took three steps in half, but you only looked at his eyes. Mozi went to the south of the Yangtze River. He did escape from heaven, but he lost the huge Central Plains market. You only saw the losses suffered by the Zheng family in Chang''an City, but you didn''t see that outside Chang''an Luoyang, the five surnames and seven hopes had carved up the blank market left by Mozi village. Compared with this Under the circumstances, this loss of Chang''an Luoyang can be ignored. "


    "Ah!" Zheng Chang was shocked and surprised.


    "So my five surnames and seven hopes haven''t failed?"


    The master of the Zheng family proudly said: "Since ancient times, who can talk about heroes based on their temporary success or failure? The five surnames and seven hopes and Mohists have just fought each other. It''s still early to talk about the victory or defeat. Mohists are now at the peak of the sun. Our purpose is to constantly weaken Mohists. According to the annual financial report of Mohist village, Mohists have to invest a lot of money to study Mohist technology every year. Once Mohist village loses a lot of money, it will be You have no skills. "


    "However, Mohism has been supported by Jiangnan and has gone to Jiangnan." Zheng Chang said helplessly.


    Zheng''s family leader sneered: "don''t forget, Jiangnan aristocratic family is also an aristocratic family like our five surnames Qiwang. Xiao Yu''s old fox deliberately goes out of work and doesn''t contribute. He only opens up a line for Mojia village. It''s only one of the reasons why he wants to completely force Mojia to Jiangnan. I''m afraid he doesn''t want to see an overly powerful Mojia."


    "Father is wise!" Zheng Chang admires.


    Zheng''s master nodded and said, "what we need to do now is to continue to weaken Mohism. One day in the future, we may not be able to surpass Mohism, and the most important thing I need is patience."


    Five surnames and seven hopes have been passed on for thousands of years. It is not that they have never encountered a crisis. However, if they can stand firm, how can they be defeated by temporary difficulties? This is also the foundation of five surnames and seven hopes.


    "Thanks for your father''s advice!" Zheng Chang said solemnly. Naturally, he knew that his father told him so much to cheer him up again.


    The master of the Zheng family nodded with satisfaction and said, "we still need to wait and see the changes of the Mohist School in Jiangnan. Jiangnan is a wild place. It''s not a matter of time before you want to become a land of fish and rice. It''s hard to predict. Even if the Mohist school is bent on helping the rejuvenation of Jiangnan, it''s not certain whether Jiangnan will appreciate it or not?"


    Zheng''s family leader said that in the south of the Yangtze River, a dispute about Mohism is quietly rising. The reason is the cotton seed and Johor rice officially promoted by Mohism in Jiangnan.


    Farmers are the most simple and stubborn people in the world. Even the Jiangnan government has vigorously publicized the benefits of planting cotton and Johor rice, but few people have been moved by it.

 Chapter 1000

    "Growing cotton?"


    "Songjiang Prefecture has been living on silkworms for generations, planting rice in the field and raising silkworms in the village. The Mulberry fish pond in mojiazi really wins my heart. However, if we plant cotton in the field, what shall we eat?" a mulberry farmer resolutely shook his head.


    As a farmer, it is natural to plant food in the soil. Although the Mohists publicize many benefits of cotton, for one thing, Songjiang Prefecture is already a breeding ground for silkworm, which is not urgent for cotton. For another, cotton is a new species, and the people of Songjiang Prefecture naturally have resistance to it.


    Mo Da patiently explained, "the old man is worried. Cotton is woven into white stacks. Although it is not as exquisite as silk, it is definitely better than linen. As long as the old man grows cotton, my Mohist family immediately buys it at a high price, which is definitely higher than the old man''s rice harvest."


    "As for the food problem mentioned by the father-in-law, Lao Zhang only needs to plant the rice introduced by Johor, which can be two to three crops a year. In this way, even if the father-in-law''s harvest has not decreased in a year, he can have one more season of cotton, which is a plain one more season of high harvest," Mo Da advised.


    "Johor''s rice, please forgive my father-in-law''s stupidity. I''m afraid he can''t serve such exquisite crops." Sang Nong heard that the yield of Johor''s rice was not moved at all, and stubbornly thought that the japonica rice he cultivated for generations was the best.


    Mo Da couldn''t help being silent. The scene in front of him didn''t surprise him. He didn''t know how many times he had experienced the same situation.


    "I don''t know how much the elderly harvest per mu of land a year?" Merton suddenly asked.


    Sang Nong said proudly, "I''m the best dealer in the area. I can harvest two crops a year and at least two and a half loads of rice per mu."


    The old farmer didn''t lie, but he didn''t tell the truth. What he said was that the harvest of two and a half loads was still in a good year.


    Mo Da suddenly smiled and said, "in that case, the Mohist family can pay the elderly five loads of rice per mu, and the price is to rent the elderly''s field for one year to grow cotton and Johor rice. However, the elderly should be responsible for taking care of the field. In this way, the elderly will not suffer losses. If the harvest is good, there will be a bonus. What do you think of the elderly?"


    "And such good things?" said Sannon in surprise.


    Mo Da said confidently, "if the elders don''t believe it, the Mohists can pay half of the rice as a deposit."


    Facing such a good thing, sang Nong would not refuse. At present, the two signed a good document and asked Li Zheng to do notarization. Then the matter immediately caused a sensation in all parts of the country. More and more sang Nong came to Mexico University to sign a document for planting cotton and Johor rice.


    "Elder brother, although your move is good, you give rice and bonus. In the end, it''s my Mohist school that loses money." a Mohist child said with a sad face.


    Mo Da shook his head and said: "Then you are wrong. What I give to sangnong is their own money. If sangnong changes to cotton and Johor rice, I''m afraid the annual income is exactly five loads of rice and the bonus. I just give them the money and rice they should have. Of course, this trick only needs to be done once, as long as these sangnong know the high income of cotton and the high yield of Johor rice , I don''t need the Mohists to do this again in the future. "


    The children of the Mohist school can''t help laughing and crying. Before, the Mohist school tried hard to publicize and let the mulberry farmers widely grow cotton and Johor rice, but no one responded. The Mohist school just changed its way and let these mulberry farmers actively grow cotton without wasting a penny.


    "This is really a treasure land."


    The fertile land and plenty of water in Songjiang Prefecture, Mexico''s big ring head, can''t help muttering that the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is suitable, the trees are evergreen all the year round, and the precipitation is sufficient. It is actually a good place for agriculture.


    "This is really a fierce place."


    Mo Wu, who was far away in the land of two lakes, looked at the river in front of him and was terrified. Who can imagine that the green rippling river contained extremely terrible schistosomiasis.


    "Doctor Mo Wu, what''s the matter?" a doctor in Jiangnan hurriedly asked.


    "There is also schistosomiasis here! Tell me to go down and put up a sign immediately, stating that there are schistosomiasis in the water. It is strictly forbidden to go into the water and fish," Merton said solemnly.


    "Yes!" the doctor in Jiangnan immediately nodded, turned around and ordered him to go down, and immediately the chief began to arrange the announcement.


    Looking at the calm river, Mo Wu couldn''t help sighing. Along the way, they didn''t know how many water sources contained schistosomiasis. The wide distribution of schistosomiasis and the number of infected people were frightening.


    "Doctor Mo Wu is the medicine for treating big belly disease." the officials in Jiangnan who have been following him urgently said that big belly disease is their local version of schistosomiasis. Doctors call it Gu, but Mo Wu knows that the so-called Gu is just an invisible insect.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "doctors don''t have the right medicine."


    Jiangnan doctor frowned and said, "not even Qinglong real medicine!"


    Hearing the name of Qinglong real medicine, everyone was overjoyed and turned their expectant eyes to Mo Wu.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "Mo has used Qinglong real medicine on the patients as soon as he came to Jiangnan. Unfortunately, no one has curative effect.


    Suddenly, everyone was disappointed. Big belly disease was a nightmare hanging over the south of the Yangtze River, but who could have thought that even the famous Qinglong real medicine was ineffective.


    "Can I let this Gu disease rage in Jiangnan?" the Jiangnan doctor said sadly.


    "No, although the doctor didn''t find the medicine to cure the disease, he found the culprit of the disease." Mo Wu turned his words.


    "Seriously!" suddenly, the doctors in Jiangnan were overjoyed. If they really found the source and just cut off the source, wouldn''t it mean that there would be a complete solution to schistosomiasis.


    "Please also ask doctor Mo Wu for advice." the accompanying Jiangnan official said excitedly, and he naturally thought of this method.


    "That''s it!" Mo Wu did not show off, but directly squeezed a small snail out of the grass with tweezers.


    "This is a snail!" the Jiangnan doctor looked at the familiar thing in front of him and said in surprise. You should know that there are numerous snails in the waters all over the south of the Yangtze River. If the root cause of schistosomiasis is snails, I''m afraid it can''t be eradicated at all.


    "Impossible! I often eat snails. I caught them in the water when I was a child. How come I didn''t catch big stomach disease." the Jiangnan official frowned.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "this is not a snail, but a snail. The snail is small and slender. It is very similar to the nails produced by the Mohists, so I named it snail."


    "That''s true!" the Jiangnan doctor looked at the snails in Mo Wu''s hands and suddenly sighed, but Rao was so. He also knew that the snails were widely distributed and it was very difficult to kill them.


    "According to the current research of doctors, only this thing in the water contains the same poisonous insects as big belly disease. In addition, snails are found in all areas where big belly disease occurs. Mo Wu can infer that people are infected with big belly disease because of this thing. Any water area where this thing is produced may infect people," Mo Wu affirmed.


    "After people are infected, they will slowly lose weight in their abdomen and limbs. At the same time, they will discharge the Gu eggs from the feces, and then pour them into rivers and lakes to infect more snails, so as to spread the Gu disease more and more widely. If the disease does not appear in the pre-Qin period, but the number surges to one million in the Tang Dynasty, if it is not treated, tens of millions of people in Jiangnan will face the threat of the disease." Mo Wu had lingering palpitations.


    Officials in Jiangnan were embarrassed. The people in Jiangnan were simple and had the bad habit of pouring night incense into the river. However, they did not expect that it was this behavior that further spread schistosomiasis.


    "After I return, I immediately order to prohibit this bad habit." the Jiangnan official said firmly.


    Mo five nodded and said, "the disease is extremely complex. Mo gave three strategies to Jiangnan to control the disease. First, all rivers and lakes with snails are prohibited from entering the water, so that as few diseases as possible can be infected."


    "Second, all feces of patients infected with Schistosoma japonicum shall be buried. They shall not be dumped in the river or at will, so as not to threaten the water source."


    "Third, immediately eliminate snails, whether by poison or artificial killing, and never allow snails to spread wantonly and let schistosomiasis spread wantonly."


    Jiangnan doctor nodded heavily. He was obsessed with practicing medicine all his life. I''m afraid he had a big stomach disease. Now he finally saw the hope of cure.


    "In this way, within 20 years, schistosomiasis in Jiangnan will be contained. At that time, Jiangnan Daxing will have no worries." Mo Wu took a deep breath in his airway.

 Chapter 1001

    The most frightening thing about Gu disease is its mystery. There is no mystery at all. Naturally, no one is taboo about it.


    Now that doctors have found the culprit of schistosomiasis, they naturally know that the dark cloud that has shrouded the people in the south of the Yangtze River for thousands of years suddenly dissipated.


    Isn''t it just that you can''t go into the water? Isn''t it just a small snail? Isn''t it just burying the feces of sick people? Especially when doctors announced that schistosomiasis would not be transmitted from person to person, almost everyone in Jiangnan was relieved.


    With the concerted efforts of the south of the Yangtze River, a vast campaign to control blood sucking worm disease was launched in the south of the Yangtze River. Villages hung signs on the waterways where snails were distributed, and villagers were strictly prohibited from entering the water.


    Countless people spontaneously went out to dig three feet along the river bank to eliminate snails. In the river, they used nets and poison, and did not let go of a snail.


    With the development of schistosomiasis control in the south of the Yangtze River, another huge project was carried out in the whole south of the Yangtze River, and workshops rose one by one. Water conservancy machinery was soon installed in the newly treated river course of schistosomiasis.


    Yang Siqi is worthy of being the descendant of Deng Ling''s family. Originally, he had no place to show his ink skills, but finally he could only make puppets with strange and erotic skills. With the huge mechanical support of the Mojia village, Yang Siqi undoubtedly showed all he had learned,. Countless difficult problems were solved in his hands, and machinery workshops in the south of the Yangtze River bloomed everywhere.


    "This is the real way of Mohism!"


    When Yang Siqi saw a huge water tanker rising in front of him, he couldn''t help sighing. In contrast, the puppets he had made before seemed exquisite, but they were not practical.


    If he could understand this truth as soon as possible, why would he drive out of the hall in a gloomy way.


    "But it''s not too late!" Yang Siqi saw a scene of prosperity in the south of the Yangtze River and couldn''t help thinking. The place in the south of the Yangtze River was not the place where his dengling family flourished.


    Since Xiangli''s pulse can lay a world in Mojia village, he can also let the Mojia dengling''s pulse blossom and spread its leaves in the south of the Yangtze River.


    As the Mohists went to the south of the Yangtze River, it was like throwing huge stones in the quiet land of the south of the Yangtze River for thousands of years, setting off a shocking wave. The popularity of new mechanical workshops, the promotion of new crops and the treatment of blood sucking insect disease. The hills that were not suitable for farming were reclaimed into terraces or planted with fruit trees. The whole land of the south of the Yangtze River was full of hot scenes.


    With the vitality of Jiangnan, caravans came one by one. Soon, carts of Jiangnan specialties appeared on the streets of Chang''an city. Of course, the most famous specialty was litchi in Lingnan.


    It is popular in Chang''an City and has become a delicacy in the mouth of upper aristocratic families. Unfortunately, it is expensive. For ordinary people, where can they be willing to taste hundreds of Wen and a kilo of fruit.


    However, the citizens of Chang''an did not expect that the upsurge of litchi had not dissipated, and mojiazi brought back a large number of new Lingnan fruits and bananas from the south of the Yangtze River.


    "Banana, what is this?" many Chang''an people wondered, but they had never heard of this fruit.


    A Lingnan businessman said proudly, "you don''t know. Bananas are also a specialty of Lingnan. They are thin and long. When they are mature, they are yellow. They taste very sweet. They are rare delicacies."


    Lingnan businessman can''t help but look nostalgic after tasting the delicious bananas. He has left his hometown for several years and hasn''t eaten bananas in his hometown for many years.


    "However, how can I hear that most of the bananas transported by mojiazi this time are green bananas, which are not familiar at all." a citizen frowned. As another product developed by mojiazi in the south of the Yangtze River, many people compared it with litchi. Once transported back, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.


    "How can you eat unripe fruit! How can the MOH family make such a mistake." they frowned one after another.


    "Yes, green bananas are very difficult to import and can''t be eaten at all!" Lingnan businessmen also confirmed in person.


    "Even the unripe fruits have been picked. Isn''t Mohism encouraging?" a Confucian scholar dared not believe.


    It comes from Mo Zi''s grandson Chou Xia, who said: it is a well-known allusion that people in the Song Dynasty have min Qimiao who is not long but "Miao".


    "It''s impossible. The Mohists often act unexpectedly, and how can they make such childish mistakes." some people, who are firm supporters of the Mohists, shook their heads and retorted.


    "Even if the Mexican family has a big reason, they can''t eat unripe bananas. It''s a waste of food." many people sniffed.


    For a while, there was a lot of discussion. Some people thought that the Mohist school would encourage the seedlings, while others thought that the Mohist school must have a later move. However, under the guidance of intentional people, some people linked the return of the Mohist school to the green banana and the Jiangnan development. They thought that these two things were "encouraging the seedlings". For a moment, the rumor that the Jiangnan development was "encouraging the seedlings" immediately spread all over Chang''an city.


    "How could Marquis Mo be so confused? Now is a good time for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. Brother Mo brought back so many unfamiliar bananas from the south of the Yangtze River. Isn''t this kind of behavior to encourage people?" Xiao Rui looked at the large number of green bananas in front of him entering the Mohist warehouse, and couldn''t help feeling sad.


    Now the bananas of mojiazi have just been put into storage, and Chang''an City has spread. In addition, it is obviously those aristocratic families who are trying to discredit the Jiangnan development by associating them with the Jiangnan development.


    Merton shook his head and said, "brother Xiao, others don''t know the characteristics of bananas. Don''t you know? Once bananas begin to mature, they can be ripe in less than three or five days. Once ripe bananas are impossible to transport, even if they are kept fresh with ice."


    Xiao Rui nodded helplessly and said, "indeed, this is also the prevalence of bananas in Lingnan, but there is no chance to see them in other places. Even in the south of the Yangtze River, only a small part of them circulate."


    Merton Lang said: "however, although ripe bananas cannot be transported, immature green bananas can be transported for a long time. Even if they are transported from Lingnan to Chang''an City, there will be no loss."


    "But what''s the use of these green bananas? They can''t be eaten. We can only watch them go bad." Xiao Rui lamented.


    "It''s hard. Can''t we just ripen these green bananas?" Merton said confidently.


    "Ripen! You think the banana is still on the tree!" Xiao Rui couldn''t help but open his eyes and looked at Merton in disbelief.


    Merton said, "brother Xiao, can you remember that in the Central Plains, there is also a kind of fruit that is picked before the fruit is ripe, and then artificially ripened to form a delicious taste."


    "Is it persimmons that mohou said!" Xiao Rui said with a bright look in his eyes. The persimmons in Sanyuan, Chang''an are the most famous, and the persimmons are also picked when they are not ripe.


    Could it be that Merton wanted lazy bananas or baked bananas? Suddenly Xiao Rui looked at Merton and didn''t know how strange it was.


    Merton didn''t know what Xiao Rui thought. He couldn''t help laughing bitterly: "the Mohist School found the secret technique of ripening from the ripening of persimmons. Even green and immature bananas can soon become sweet and delicious ripe bananas as long as they are ripened by the Mohist secret technique."


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, a Mohist son opened a closed warehouse. He saw that there were neat strings of bananas in the warehouse. Each string of bananas had changed from green to yellow, emitting an attractive fragrance.


    "This is the secret technique of ripening!" Xiao Rui peeled a ripe banana and tasted the familiar delicacy. His eyes brightened.


    "Brother Xiao likes it, but take some back to Xiangcheng princess. Xiangcheng Princess must like it." Merton said with a smile.


    "You''re welcome, brother!" Xiao Rui laughed loudly. Looking at the ripe bananas in front of him, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.


    Compared with the harsh output and transportation of litchi, the output of bananas is very high. In addition, green bananas are very easy to transport. It only needs an ordinary carriage to transport them back from Lingnan. If litchi is only a treasure in the mouth of aristocrats, the bananas in front will be a beautiful food in the mouth of ordinary people after all. Such a huge market is the real business opportunity in Jiangnan.


    What those aristocratic families said is true. The great development of the south of the Yangtze River is indeed premature. If it is forced to develop, it may really encourage the seedlings. However, the addition of the Mohist school is like this secret skill of ripening, which makes the immature great development of the south of the Yangtze river finally become sweet and delicious fruit.

 Chapter 1002

    "Ripening secret skill!"


    With the maturity of a large number of bananas, bananas with attractive fragrance appeared in the streets of Chang''an City, which immediately caused a sensation.


    No one expected that the original rumor of Mohist Zi''s behavior of encouraging seedlings would be so reversed. Mohist Zi had the secret skill of accelerating the ripening of immature green bananas, which was unheard of.


    "How is this possible?"


    "Others are impossible, but there is nothing impossible for mojiazi?"


    "Mojiazi is worthy of mojiazi. Lingnan litchi is preserved by making ice with saltpeter when it is mature, but Lingnan bananas do the opposite. They even ripen the green fruits. It''s the right medicine for the case! Absolutely!"


    When many Chang''an people heard about the secret technique of ripening, they couldn''t help but applaud the case.


    "But can you eat such unripe fruits? You''re not afraid to have trouble!" some people also deeply doubt that looking at the attractive bananas, they stay away. After all, with secular experience, unripe melons and fruits are inedible.


    "What can''t be eaten here? The persimmons we often eat are not all picked before they are ripe. Which of lazy persimmons, baked persimmons and persimmons is not delicious. It is said that the inspiration of Mohist''s ripening secret skill comes from persimmons. Since persimmons can be eaten, the same ripened bananas can be eaten naturally." someone popular science said.


    "I see?" many people suddenly realized that persimmons are the favorite food of the people in Guanzhong. Naturally, they are very familiar with persimmons. With persimmon beads and jade in front, people have a little more recognition when looking at bananas. They can''t help but feel excited. It''s also a beautiful thing to try Lingnan food.


    "Even so, we can''t afford Lingnan fruits. We can''t afford to eat hundreds of Wen per kilogram. It''s not something we and other people can afford." many people said bitterly that litchi is worth hundreds of Wen per kilogram. I''m afraid the same price of bananas shipped back from Lingnan is not low. Suddenly, many people were worried. Lingnan fruits were sent to Chang''an city thousands of miles away. The freight alone makes people smack, I''m afraid the price of bananas in Lingnan is not low.


    However, when they saw the price of bananas, they were stunned and exclaimed, "five Wen a kilo!"


    "The banana is only five Wen a kilo."


    "Yes, it''s five Wen a kilo!" nodded a Mohist boy.


    "The banana was shipped back thousands of miles from Lingnan, but the price was only half that of litchi." people couldn''t believe it.


    The children of Mohism proudly said: "The local price of Lingnan fruit is not expensive. What is really expensive is the transportation cost. The output of green bananas is very high, and it is easy to transport when they are not mature. Even ordinary farmers can transport them. The natural price is not expensive. Not to mention that the Mohists have placed huge orders in Lingnan. When a large number of bananas are transported back, the price of bananas will fall again."


    Compared with the high price of litchi, it is much more convenient to transport bananas. The most important thing in Datang is manpower. Although it is a long way from Lingnan to Chang''an City, it only costs some manpower and horsepower.


    People are like in a dream. Compared with the high price of litchi, five Wen a kilogram of banana is really the choice of the public. This is the Mohist in their mind, which can make more people profit to the greatest extent.


    The Lingnan fruit banana of five Wen and one kilo once again caused a sensation in Chang''an city. The original litchi caused the Lingnan fruit fever, which has not subsided yet. The same delicious and cheap banana was sent to Chang''an City and soon sold well in Chang''an city.


    The rumours that mocked Mozi''s "Miao" encouragement suddenly disappeared. Instead, they pursued the secret skills of ripening, and more merchants were excited. As expected, the land in the south of the Yangtze River was full of wealth. It seems that going to the south of the Yangtze River is also a good choice.


    "Ripening secret skill!"


    Zheng''s master looked at the bananas in front of him and couldn''t help looking embarrassed. Now he finally realized how difficult the Mexican family is.


    Mojiazi''s proposal for the large-scale development of the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is planting cotton, controlling schistosomiasis, or setting up workshops, is difficult to achieve results in a short time. However, the only popular litchi has a very small output because of the harsh production and transportation conditions.


    However, mojiazi is unique. He even transports the immature bananas directly from Lingnan to ripen them. According to the news obtained by Wuxing Qiwang, bananas are different from litchi. They can be cultivated several times a year in Lingnan, and the yield is very high. Such delicious fruit, such high yield, such a huge market in the whole Tang Dynasty, coupled with the ripening secret skill of mojiazi, this will What a huge business opportunity it will be, even a hundred times that of the litchi market.


    What makes Zheng''s family more embarrassed is that the hot sale of bananas is the most powerful evidence for the large-scale development of Jiangnan, which proves the correctness of mojiazi''s road.


    "My child was defeated by the tricks of Mohist school." Zheng Chang revealed a trace of bitterness. He thought that he had the power of five surnames and seven hopes. It can be said that he had an advantage, but he was balanced by the endless tricks of Mohist school.


    "The person who tied the bell still needs to untie the bell. It seems that I need to go to Mohism again." Zheng''s master took a deep breath.


    "Go to the Mohist school! How can the Zheng family bow to the Mohist family? What does the world think of me? My five surnames and seven looks!" Zheng Chang couldn''t help exclaiming for a while, and immediately moved his wound and gasped in pain.


    "Bow your head! Why not bow your head? The rise of Jiangnan aristocratic family is imminent, and the library of Confucianism is about to rise everywhere. Your majesty is sitting on the high hall, and it is imperative to push for grace again. How much time do you think there is left for five surnames and seven looks?" the head of Zheng''s family said seriously.


    "But!" Zheng Chang stopped again. He was embarrassed at the thought of bowing his head to the Mexican family.


    Zheng''s family leader took a deep breath: "the core of Datang is still the Central Plains. The foundation of Mojia village is in Guanzhong. Mojia Zi can''t abandon such a huge market in the north. This is our biggest card."


    Outside the Mo mansion, Zheng''s family leader came to the Mo mansion again, but this time he didn''t hand in a prayer note in advance, but directly visited the door in person.


    "Sorry! My young master hasn''t seen any visitors recently." Fu Bo said politely outside Mo''s house.


    The head of the Zheng family was angry. As the head of the five surnames and seven hopes, he had never been closed. Today, he was closed by the children of the Mohist family.


    "Mo Hou is too big."


    Zheng''s family leader was a little unhappy. As his five surnames, seven hopes and relatives of the emperor, no one dared to shut him out even if he went to the residence of the Duke of the world.


    Fubo shook his head and said, "Zheng''s master misunderstood. It''s not the arrogance of the Mo house, but the long princess is about to give birth. She has been admitted to the women''s and children''s hospital. My young master has rushed there. I''m afraid my young master has no time to see guests recently."


    "The princess is about to give birth!"


    Zheng''s family leader was stunned. He didn''t expect to arrive at such a coincidence.


    "Congratulations to Mo mansion!" the master of the Zheng family bowed his hands. Zheng Chonghua, the daughter of the master of the Zheng family, became a concubine in the palace. The Zheng family and Mo mansion are also close relatives, so it''s natural to live in face.


    "Thank you, master Zheng, for your kind words." Fubo solemnly replied.


    The Mojia village has been handed down separately. In addition, Merton married the legitimate eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, Princess Changle. Moreover, for the sake of this child, Mojia Zi established a separate maternal and child hospital, which is to lay the foundation for the smooth birth of this child. It can be imagined how much attention Mojia attaches to it.


    The news that Princess Changle was about to give birth immediately attracted the attention of many people.

 Chapter 1003

    The maternal and child hospital has been under martial law at all levels, and the whole second floor of the maternal and child hospital has been vacated to prepare for the production of Princess Changle. However, all pregnant women have no complaints, because this hospital is specially prepared for the delivery of Princess Changle, and they just enjoy the convenience of Princess Changle.


    Outside the delivery room, Merton was waiting anxiously, listening to the cries of pain from time to time outside the delivery room.


    "Give me a set of medical clothes and let me go inside to accompany Changle production." he waited left and right. He couldn''t wait any longer. He gritted his teeth and said.


    "It''s nonsense! How can a man accompany a woman to labor? This is an unknown move." Zhang quickly dissuaded.


    "Not before doesn''t mean not in the future. Changle is so painful. If I accompany her, it will certainly ease her pain." Merton thought of the example of men accompanying production in later generations, and wanted to popularize it to the Tang Dynasty immediately.


    Zhang dissuaded: "I know that mohou is worried about the princess, but Mrs. Zhao wenpo is the most skilled wenpo in the women''s and children''s hospital. If she personally guides the princess''s production, she will certainly make the princess safe."


    With the opening of the women''s and children''s Hospital, Zhao wenpo handled more than thousands of pregnant women, and all of them were safe. The women''s and children''s hospital had already had strategies to deal with every possible situation.


    When he heard that the maternal and child hospital had been fully prepared, Merton was a little relieved. After a while, he heard a loud noise. Then two familiar figures appeared in front of Merton. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin and empress Chang sun came together.


    "See the emperor and the queen!" Merton was shocked. When Princess Changle was sent to the maternal and child hospital, he just sent someone to the palace to deliver a letter. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin and empress changsun came in person after they got the news.


    "Free? How''s the situation?" Li Shimin waved his hand and said with a worried face.


    "Back to the emperor, I have been in for half an hour and still haven''t come out." Merton introduced the situation in detail.


    "It doesn''t matter for half an hour. Sometimes women have enough pain in childbirth for three days and three nights." empress Chang Sun said with a little relief.


    Zhang reported: "thank you for your trust. Princess Changle is normal at present. I believe it''s no big problem. After production, there will be special medical staff to take care of the princess''s body, and there will be no loss of blood."


    Zhang naturally knew that the daughters of the eldest grandson empress were worried about Qi disease, and the postpartum loss of Qi and blood was the cause of Qi disease,


    Empress Chang sun has given birth to five children in her life. She is still very experienced in this. For the safety of Princess Changle, she still took a good examination of Zhang''s family. However, after playing right, empress Chang sun can''t help feeling very much. Even the most experienced stable woman in the palace is less than one tenth of the specialty of the women''s and children''s hospital.


    "Emperor, from my concubine''s point of view, the women''s and children''s hospital has studied the way of production to the extreme, even in the palace. In the future, it will be better for the concubines in the palace to give birth here." empress changsun advised.


    "That''s what the queen said!" Li Shimin nodded. There are many concubines in the harem who have dystocia, just like the mother of Princess Xiangcheng and the mother of Princess Gaoyang. If maternal and child hospitals had appeared earlier, I am afraid there would not have been so many tragedies.


    "Thank you, your majesty and the queen trust!" Zhang said with great joy.


    If the imperial concubines in the palace also come to the women''s and children''s Hospital in the future, it will certainly raise the reputation and status of the women''s and children''s hospital.


    After a long wait, the door of the delivery room finally opened. Zhao wenpo came out with a baby and said, "Congratulations, marquis Mo, mother and daughter are safe!"


    "OK, OK, just be safe!" Merton breathed a long sigh of relief. The big stone suspended in his heart finally landed. In this era, the risk of childbirth is also great. Even if he made sufficient preparations, he is still nervous. Fortunately, the Lord of Changle is finally safe. Merton from later generations naturally doesn''t care about giving birth to boys and girls.


    Merton held his daughter in his arms. Looking at his wrinkled face, he looked happy. His daughter was good. It was his father''s sweet little cotton padded jacket.


    "I''m ashamed that I can''t continue the incense for the Mohist family!"


    Merton didn''t care, but the newly produced Princess Changle was ashamed. All along, Mohism has been handed down from generation to generation. The most popular thing in Mohist village is to let the incense in Mohist village continue.


    When Merton heard the speech, he handed over his daughter to the eldest grandson empress and said softly, "my husband has long said that giving birth to boys and girls is not something women can decide. Medical research shows that it may even be decided by men. Moreover, both boys and girls are the same for my husband, and there is no difference in importance."


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun could not help nodding. If others said so, there must be an element of comfort. Combined with Merton''s previous behavior, there are even signs of passing the position to Wu Meiniang, but people feel that Merton''s words are indeed true.


    "But my body......" Princess Changle wanted to say more, but Merton interrupted.


    "She is my Mohist child. From birth, she was destined to be the happiest child in the world." Merton Lang said.


    Princess Changle saw that Merton was not faking, but liked her daughter from the bottom of her heart. She couldn''t help smiling happily, looked at her sleeping daughter, and then looked at her husband and parents around her. She immediately felt that she had no regrets in this life.


    "What a blessed child!" empress Chang sun teased her granddaughter, and a doting appeared on her face. Li Shimin was also itchy. She came together to tease her, but she didn''t expect her granddaughter to cry.


    "You must have frightened her." empress Chang sun glanced at Li Shimin, and Li Shimin retreated with a helpless wry smile,


    The eldest grandson queen picked up her granddaughter and coaxed her, but her little mouth still kept crying.


    "I''m not hungry!" Li Shimin reminded.


    Empress Chang sun suddenly exclaimed, "I''m afraid it''s true! I just brought a wet nurse from the palace. I''m sure I can make this little guy full."


    When the grandson reached out for a hand, suddenly a nurse came in and respectfully said, "see Mo Hou and Princess highness."


    "Mother can''t! President Zhang once said that breastfeeding is the most suitable for the baby, so that the baby can be healthy. The child wants to feed the baby by herself." Princess Changle is weak, but her tone is firm.


    "Feed yourself?" empress Chang sun was stunned. Although she raised five children, she never breastfeed one in person. When I think about it, her child was indeed weak and sick from childhood.


    "The princess doesn''t know. Breastfeeding makes her body slowly take shape, and the little princess eats more and more in the future. She certainly doesn''t eat enough breast milk, and the princess will use the nursing mother sooner or later." the nursing mother in the palace hurriedly said that this is the daughter of the eldest princess. If she can become a nursing mother, she must be rich and noble in the future. Naturally, she doesn''t want to give up such a good opportunity, Urged.


    "As long as she can grow up healthily, Changle will be willing to pay more!" Changle looked at her daughter and suddenly burst out of maternal love. "As for the problem of insufficient breast milk, Merton has already prepared."


    "Merton was ready!" suddenly everyone looked at Merton with strange eyes. He was a man. How to prepare.


    Merton explained with a wry smile: "I told my father and mother that Changle has an ice cream shop and needs a lot of milk on weekdays. After several years of cultivation in the farm, a cow that can produce milk all year round has been cultivated. It has sufficient nutrition and is competent for breast-feeding babies.


    The nanny exclaimed deliberately, "mohou doesn''t want to raise the little princess with milk! Milk can''t compare with human milk. If it is spread, it will lose its royal identity and make people laugh."


    Immediately, Li Shimin and the eldest grandson empress frowned. There were precedents of insufficient breast milk and feeding children with cow''s milk and sheep''s milk among the people. Which rich family didn''t invite a nursing mother? He didn''t want his granddaughter to be laughed at, let alone invite a nursing mother to tell them it was light and easy to lift.


    Merton took his daughter and said softly: "Although she is the daughter of a princess, she is also the eldest daughter of the Mohist school. She should abide by the Mohist concept. She can naturally use a suckling mother. However, how can everyone in the world use a suckling mother? However, milk is not. The output of milk is very high. One cow is enough to support ten young children. Moreover, through the secret technology of the Mohist school, she can make fresh milk into milk powder, which is enough to feed ten young children It has been preserved for a year. As long as Datang has cultivated enough cows, it is not impossible for a young child to drink milk until he is ten years old. The reason why all parts of the grassland are strong is not that they eat cheese and beef all year round. If Datang also promotes milk in the world, my Datang youth will be as strong as a cow. "


    "If a young man is strong, the country is strong!" Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking of what Merton''s young Datang said, and what he could think of was deeper. The most suitable place for raising cattle in Datang is the northern grassland. Once milk is popular, it can not only make Datang children strong, but also make the northern trend of raising cows prosperous. The Imperial court can fetter all parts of the northern grassland. Imagine, once the northern grassland is popular Grassland herdsmen raise cows and sell milk. If they lose such a huge market as Datang, who can they sell their milk to? In this way, how can there be rebellion in the northern ministries again.


    "Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, ordinary people lack a lot of breast milk. It''s lucky to grow up with milk and goat''s milk. More people live with rice porridge. If milk powder is promoted, it''s lucky for the world. However, as the nanny said, people all over the world criticize milk feeding. In that case, start with the eldest daughter of the Mohist School and set an example for the first time." Merton said positively. At the same time, he picked up an iron can in his hand and opened it skillfully. There was a small wooden spoon to pour out a spoonful of milky yellow milk powder, put it in a bowl, mix it with warm water, and soon a milk was ready.


    Merton filled a spoonful of milk powder with a small spoon and sent it to his daughter''s mouth. Soon, a portion of milk powder had been fed, and his daughter immediately became quiet.


    "It''s really convenient!" the eldest Sun Queen exclaimed. In this way, as long as there is enough milk powder, when you are hungry, you can feed your child, not to mention a child, even quintuplets.


    "It''s nothing. When the milk bottle is successfully developed, it will be more convenient." Merton relaxed his airway. Although the Mohists can''t develop the common latex * * in later generations, it''s not difficult to make a milk bottle to control the speed of baby''s milk absorption.

 Chapter 1004

    "You did a good job!" Li Shimin looked at Merton with a trace of satisfaction on his face.


    Outside the women''s and children''s Hospital, after waiting for his daughter to sleep, Merton personally saw off Li Shimin and the eldest grandson queen. They looked at the majestic women''s and children''s building and couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction. This is the tallest building in Chang''an. Even they heard about it in the palace. Any father would be sincerely happy to see his son-in-law treat his daughter like this.


    "This is Wei Chen''s responsibility as husband and father!" Merton said solemnly, not proud.


    Li Shimin took back his eyes from the maternal and child building and sighed sadly, "what I said is not just about Changle production."


    Merton suddenly realized that what Li Shimin said was the evil relationship between the Mohist School and the five surnames and seven looks.


    "There have been countless times when I thought you would turn to me for help or succumb to the five surnames and seven hopes, and every time you surprised me." Li Shimin lamented that the matter of the five surnames and seven hopes is extremely difficult. Even the Li family is also one of the five surnames and seven hopes. Once the five surnames and seven hopes are moved, they will certainly shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, which is why Li Shimin has been secretly unmoved.


    "A few small things are not worth disturbing your majesty." Merton shook his head. From beginning to end, he never thought of asking Li Shimin for help. Even in the most critical time of the Mojia village, he has made the worst preparation. It''s a big deal to let the Mojia village continue to hibernate. As long as the Mojia has ink skills in his hands, there will be the day when the Jedi will be reborn.


    "Little things?" Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling bitterly. I''m afraid the biggest reason why he was able to sit firmly in the court was the tenacity of the Mohist school. The ultimate goal of the five surnames and seven hopes is never Mohism or Confucianism, but him. As long as Mohism and Confucianism can''t carry it, Li Shimin will come forward in person and force Li Shimin to negotiate, which is the ultimate goal of the five surnames and seven hopes.


    However, all the plans of the five surnames and seven hopes did not even pass the first level. No one thought that Merton was so hard-working. He stubbornly withstood the pressure of the five surnames and seven hopes, and let the world see the power of a hundred schools for the first time.


    Li Shimin saw the difference between the hundred families and the aristocratic family for the first time. The aristocratic family always focuses on their own interests, and the hundred families often have the world in mind. This time, the Mohist and Confucian doctors did not disappoint him, but the ugly face of the aristocratic family was exposed.


    "Five surnames and seven hopes have been handed down for thousands of years. You have never suffered such a big loss on anyone. Now you have become a thorn in the eye of five surnames and seven hopes. You must be careful in the future," Li Shimin told him.


    "Thank you for your guidance!" Merton nodded. His five surnames and seven hopes have been handed down for thousands of years. He has never despised them at all.


    "You have made such a great contribution, but now I can''t reward it wantonly. When my granddaughter is full moon, I will not hesitate to reward it." Li Shimin is rarely generous.


    "Ah! The little girl is still young. I''m afraid it''s not suitable for a heavy reward." Merton quickly declined.


    Empress changsun said softly, "this is the intention of the palace and the emperor. Don''t refuse."


    "Yes, I''ll reward my granddaughter. Who can say anything?" Li Shimin snorted coldly. He didn''t allow Merton to say any more and directly boarded the car and left.


    "To your majesty and queen."


    After seeing off Li Shimin and the eldest grandson queen, Merton returned to the ward. When he saw his sleeping wife and daughter, he was immediately satisfied and felt that his life was not empty.


    After careful recuperation in the maternal and child hospital, seven days later, Princess Changle and her daughter were discharged from the hospital and returned to the Mo house. At the same time, the news of the birth of the eldest daughter of Mohism spread all over Chang''an city.


    "I''m really a blessed person, that is, the daughter of the eldest princess and the eldest daughter of the Mohist family. No matter which identity is enough to make her rich and noble all her life." the people in Chang''an exclaimed and envied.


    "Although blessed, it''s a pity that it''s a daughter?" an idle man shook his head and sighed.


    "What about the body of a daughter? The disciple of Mohist school is also a daughter. It is known as the eldest martial sister of Mohist school, and Mohist school has no idea that men are superior to women." a merchant strongly supported it.


    "Well, how did I hear that mojiazi didn''t invite a nurse for his daughter, and chose to feed her with milk." the idle man shook his head and retorted.


    "Milk feeding, that''s the daughter of the eldest princess, your Majesty''s granddaughter, who feeds with milk like ordinary people?" the people couldn''t help but be surprised.


    "I don''t know. My concubine gave birth in the hospital a few days ago, but I heard that mojiazi refused the nurse given by his majesty. The reason is that mojiazi turned milk into dry powder like flour. It only needs warm water to soak it, which is enough to feed the baby. Mojiazi used his daughter as an experiment. Once successful, it will be the gospel of children all over the world, mojiazi The family is again accumulating blessings for their daughter! "The merchant said excitedly.


    "This party may be successful!" when they heard the speech, they couldn''t help but smack their tongue. There are many cases of feeding children with milk and sheep''s milk among the people. The probability of success is very high. Once it is popularized, it is indeed the blessing of babies in the world, and this blessing will naturally fall on the eldest daughter of the Mohist school.


    In the ink house, Princess Changle, who was still in the moon, looked at Merton, who was busy changing diapers and feeding milk powder.


    "If you let others see that the magnificent mojiazi is helpless to a little girl, you will be laughed at." Princess Changle narrowed her eyes into crescent moon.


    Merton put his daughter on his shoulder and patted her back slowly. He knew that he heard her burp and went to sleep contentedly. Only then did he put her beside Princess Changle.


    "Whoever coaxes more children will kiss them. Aristocratic families have weak family affection and are favored and neglected. I''m afraid the use of nannies is one of them. In my Mohist school, there is no distinction between legitimate elders and men, and all children are treated equally." Merton looked at his daughter and said softly.


    Princess Changle could not help nodding, not to mention the aristocratic family, that is, the palace. This phenomenon is the most serious. Princess Changle was born by the queen and naturally loved. I''m afraid other princes and princesses will not see Li Shimin once in ten days and a half months. They can get very little father love, let alone take care of themselves like Merton.


    The princes and princesses are not equal. How can we mention the feelings of brothers and sisters, that is, the feelings born by a mother are deeper. As for other brothers and sisters, I''m afraid they are inferior to passers-by.


    "In addition, of course, I''m afraid there are many wives and concubines and too many children to take care of!" Princess Changle said happily.


    Not to mention his father and emperor, he is the young master of an ordinary aristocratic family. Which one is not a group of wives and concubines, and his sons and daughters continue one after another. If they all want enough father''s love, I''m afraid they can''t be busy.


    And she is the happiest to marry Merton. The Mohist family can only marry one wife in her life, and her daughter is also happy. She was born in the Mohist family where men are not superior to women.

 Chapter 1005

    The full moon is the most important day for a baby. The infant mortality rate of the ancients was very high. A baby survived a month after birth.


    At this time, parents will hold a full moon ceremony to celebrate their children''s difficulties and wish their newborns a healthy growth.


    Today, although there is a maternal and child hospital, which greatly reduces the infant mortality rate, the inheritance of this custom will not be cut off. However, there are patriarchal families, which only give boys full moon wine, not girls. In the Mohist school, there is no patriarchal preference. Although Merton was born a daughter, Merton still held a full moon ceremony like boys.


    "Hahaha, where''s my little niece?" Qin Huaiyu came excitedly, greeted Merton waiting at the door and went to see the children.


    Merton smiled bitterly and looked at the three people who had disappeared, so he had to continue to wait for the guests at the door.


    This time, Merton invited close people to attend his daughter''s full moon ceremony. Of course, many came uninvited, and Merton naturally entertained them.


    "Congratulations, marquis Mo, on your daughter!" suddenly a voice appeared outside Mo''s house, which made Merton frown. He saw that the head of the Zheng family came in person, followed by Zheng Chang, who had just recovered.


    "It was Mr. Zheng. Last time Mr. Zheng came to visit, he happened to meet a little girl who was born. He failed to receive her. He ignored the Zheng family leader and asked Haihan!" Merton said politely. The visitor was a guest. Merton was embarrassed to tear his face and could only entertain her warmly.


    "It doesn''t matter. It''s the wrong time for me to come, but I suddenly heard that Marquis Mo was happy with her daughter. Today, I came to the door to congratulate her. A small gift is no respect." the master of the Zheng family stretched out his hand and handed a gift list.


    Merton swept his eyes, but he couldn''t help shrinking his eyes. The master of the Zheng family said that it was only a small gift, but there was a long column on the gift list. This gift list alone was extremely rich.


    Zheng Chang waved his hand. In an instant, the servants of the Zheng family who had already prepared were carrying a large number of gifts to move to the Mohist family.


    Merton hurriedly came forward to stop him and said, "master Zheng, wait a minute. Thank you for your kindness. Mo took it for my little girl. Unfortunately, today''s little girl''s full moon banquet doesn''t accept gifts. As long as you come, you are a distinguished guest of the Mohist school. Please don''t blame master Zheng."


    "No gifts!" Zheng''s family leader couldn''t help but stay. Since ancient times, the biggest purpose of the official family''s banquet is to receive gifts, and this is a bold opportunity to receive benefits, but he didn''t expect to receive gifts at all here.


    Zheng Chang didn''t believe it. When he stretched out his head, he found that mojiazi didn''t make empty words, but really didn''t accept gifts. What was placed in the concierge was just some children''s clothes and no other gifts.


    Zheng''s family leader took a deep look at Merton and said, "Marquis Mo''s behavior really impressed Zheng."


    After that, the Zheng family leader turned back in person, took out a set of well-made little girl''s clothes from the gift arm and solemnly presented them.


    Merton did not have the slightest dislike, but took it with both hands and handed it to Fubo. Lang said, "thank you! Elder Zheng, please, brother Zheng!"


    Under the tie of Fubo, the Zheng family leader entered the ink house and saw the courtyard in the ink house where the latest ink technology was used everywhere. He even felt that it was an eye opener, and some of them were not used on the market at all.


    "The Mohist school is unfathomable!" Zheng''s master said with a calm face. He said that he knew himself and the enemy. He won every battle. When he saw the inside information of the Mohist house, he knew that even if he had been in a stalemate with the five surnames and seven hopes for so long, the Mohist school had not run out of money.


    "It''s just a trick." Zheng Chang said disapprovingly.


    "Yo! Isn''t this brother Zheng? He recovered so quickly!" suddenly three figures that Zheng Chang remembered appeared in front of Zheng Chang. It happened that Qin Huaiyu came out after seeing Merton''s daughter and met Zheng Chang.


    "It''s you!" Zheng Chang immediately gnashed his teeth. For a moment, new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart.


    Qin Huaiyu frowned and said coldly, "why, I still want to fight, but not today. Today is the full moon banquet for my little niece. You can choose the time and place another day."


    "That''s it!" Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin step forward at the same time.


    "You guys, it is said that friends should be solved rather than tied up. Today is brother Mo''s happy day. Xiao is a peacemaker here. It''s said that he doesn''t know each other if he doesn''t fight. It''s also a good story for the four to get married. I don''t know what elder Zheng thinks." Xiao Rui appeared to persuade him, but his eyes looked at the Zheng family leader.


    Zheng''s master said, "it should be so."


    "Thank you for your generosity, master Zheng!" Xiao Rui said to Qin Huaiyu. Xiao Rui married Li Shimin''s eldest daughter, who has high prestige among dandies. Qin Huaiyu and his three sons are also his younger generation.


    "Thank you, master Zheng!" Qin Huaiyu said with an arched hand. Although they are not afraid, after all, the Zheng family leader is a leader with five surnames and seven hopes. Even their parents don''t want to offend him. Naturally, the three of them go down the slope.


    "It''s really a rising star. It''s rare to have a good talent." Zheng''s family leader said with a kind face, as if he saw his favorite younger generation, as if he didn''t know that it was the three who beat their son to bed for half a month.


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them felt that they were seen through in front of the whole old fox. They shivered all over and hurriedly found a reason to leave.


    "Father, why do you let them go so easily!" Zheng Chang still said reluctantly.


    The Zheng family leader Leng hum: "We came here today to ease relations with the Mohists and seek ways to break the situation. We''re not here to make trouble, not to mention that Qin Qiong and others have a great influence in the court. Qin Huaiyu and the Mohists are better. If we make bad friends with the three people again, I''m afraid we will fall short of success. Don''t ruin the event of five surnames and seven hopes because of our private affairs."


    "Yes, father!" Zheng Chang was unwilling, but he could only answer.


    "Your majesty and empress arrived!" suddenly a notice came, which immediately attracted the attention of all the guests and hosts. Another reason why they were willing to give support to the Mohist son was that this was the full moon banquet of Princess Changle''s daughter. I''m afraid Li Shimin and empress changsun would not be short of seats. This was an opportunity to get in close contact with the emperor.


    "See the emperor!"


    "See the queen!"


    Under the leadership of Merton, a group of guests came to the door of Merton house to meet him.


    "Dear Aiqing, it''s a family banquet today. You don''t need to be polite." Li Shimin said in a loud voice and accompanied the empress changsun out of the carriage.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" after all the ministers got up, the atmosphere between the monarchs and ministers warmed up for a moment.


    As soon as empress Chang sun waved, a group of palace maids and eunuchs immediately came over with gifts.


    "Back to the queen, the ink house will not accept gifts for this full moon banquet." Merton hurried forward.


    "Don''t accept gifts!" in an instant, Li Shimin and empress Chang sun looked at Merton''s guests in surprise.


    The master of the Zheng family took the lead in saying, "I admire the high wind and Bright Festival of Mo Hou!"


    Other guests also nodded and praised. In any case, Merton''s move was morally flawless.


    "This is also novel," Li Shimin said with a flash in his eyes. If the atmosphere of not accepting gifts at the banquet is formed, the atmosphere of bribery and wealth collection among officials will be greatly reduced.


    "It''s ok if others don''t accept it, but it''s not in this list for the palace to send something to her daughter and granddaughter!" the eldest grandson raised her eyebrow and asked the palace woman to send the gift.


    "Thank you, empress mother!" the elder dared not quit. Merton was not an old-fashioned man, so he had to take orders.


    All officials smiled knowingly, naturally no one said anything!


    With the arrival of Li Shimin and empress Chang sun, the full moon banquet of the eldest daughter of the Mohist school officially began. For a moment, the guests and hosts were seated and delicious dishes were served. What''s more, there are rare specialties in the south of the Yangtze River, which filled the guests with food.


    After three rounds of wine, Xiao Rui suddenly said, "I''ve heard that mohou cherishes his daughter very much. Why don''t you hold it and let me have a look."


    "Yes!" with the coaxing of the guests, Merton had to go into the inner room and hold his daughter out. After a month''s growth, his wrinkled little face had been completely opened, very pink and lovely.


    "It''s a natural beauty!"


    The guests praised him one after another.


    "Come on! Come on! Grandpa hug!" Li Shimin reached out and took his granddaughter. He couldn''t help but look kind and teased her to giggle.


    "It''s worthy of your Majesty''s blood, and it''s very related to your majesty." Zheng''s family leader echoed.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "that''s natural. I''m happy today. I have specially granted my granddaughter princess. As for the land grant, I haven''t thought about it yet. It''s better for Zhu Qing to have a good plan."


    "Princess!" many people were shocked. This woman was just a full moon. Li Shimin even granted her Princess. More importantly, there was a special fief. You know, the fief of Princess Changle is next to Mojia village. If Merton''s daughter had another fief, wouldn''t there be another area of Mojia Village.


    Merton''s heart moved and suddenly knew that this must be the reward Li Shimin said a month ago. However, he didn''t think that Li Shimin''s so-called reward was a fief.


    Xiao Rui''s eyes flashed. Naturally, he knew that the best fief for Merton''s daughter must be adjacent to the Mojia village. However, in this way, the strength of the Mojia village must grow again, which is not in line with the interests of Jiangnan. At present, he moved in his heart: "It is widely said in Chang''an city that mohou once said that his daughter is his father''s intimate little cotton padded jacket. Now the Mohists are promoting cotton in Songjiang Prefecture. It''s better to seal the princess''s land in Songjiang Prefecture. They can transport cotton for Chang''an city every year to fulfill the princess''s filial piety."


    "Filial piety every year is really a good place." someone immediately agreed.


    "Songjiang mansion?" Merton raised his eyebrows. It was a place known as Shanghai beach in later generations. Xiao Rui thought he had avoided the area around the Mojia village, but he didn''t know that the selected place was a place that made the Mojia more powerful. If his daughter''s fief was chosen in Songjiang Mansion, Merton was sure to build it into a level of prosperity in Chang''an Luoyang in 20 years.


    Zheng''s family leader was cold in his heart. Songjiang mansion is a place in the south of the Yangtze River. Naturally, the Xiao family wanted to tie the Mohist son to the south of the Yangtze River. How could he succeed.


    "Your Majesty, I heard that Marquis Mo promoted milk feeding for the sake of baby feeding in the world and asked the princess to try it by herself. This is the gospel of the world. He thought that the princess''s fief should be in the north where water and grass are abundant, herd dairy cows widely and benefit babies all over the world." Lang Shengdao, the leader of the Zheng family, tried his best to keep the fief of Merton''s daughter in the north.


    In an instant, everyone was silent. No one thought that the North-South dispute caused by Mohism would spread to his daughter''s fief.

 Chapter 1006

    "What you two Aiqing said is very reasonable, but I can''t seal two fiefs alone!" Li Shimin said helplessly.


    "Wei Chen is only a small suggestion, which still needs your Majesty''s decision." Zheng''s master said modestly.


    "Merton, where do you think the choice of my granddaughter is appropriate?" Li Shimin turned to Merton. Xiao Rui and the Zheng family leader immediately changed their faces. If Merton closed the land nearby on the grounds that he didn''t want his daughter to be too far away from him, I''m afraid everything they did was in vain.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "thank you for your love. I think it''s more important to feed babies all over the world. I''m willing to choose a place in the north for my little girl."


    "Ah!" no one thought that Merton really chose his daughter''s back cover in the far north.


    Zheng''s family leader immediately showed a confident smile. He believed that with a little provocation, there would be a gap between the Mohist family and the Jiangnan aristocratic family.


    "Your Majesty Hui, the northern grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and the princess is shouldering the gospel of babies all over the world. I''m afraid it can''t be done without ten thousand hectares of land." Zheng''s family leader said with awe inspiring righteousness, as if he was wholeheartedly considering the eldest daughter of Mohism.


    Xiao Rui on one side suddenly looked gloomy. He originally thought that mojiazi was close to Jiangnan and would choose Songjiang mansion, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi chose the north, which made Zheng''s master take advantage of the loophole.


    "Ten thousand hectares of land!" Li Shimin not only pondered. Although ten thousand hectares of land seemed to be a lot, most of the grasslands were deserted, and I''m afraid there were few families. Not to mention that this was a matter of experimental milk feeding babies, which was reasonable.


    "No, what Weichen asks for his daughter is not a million hectares of land, but a million hectares of land." Merton''s voice shocked the whole party like a thunder.


    "A million hectares of land!" in an instant, everyone looked at Merton with incredible eyes. Not to mention that Merton''s daughter was only a princess, even the prince and Princess dared not say that they wanted a million hectares of land. You know, a million hectares of land is almost equivalent to the state of the Han Dynasty.


    "Hahaha! Mozi is looking for death. He is just giving birth to a daughter. He is spoiled and charming, and dares to ask for a million hectares of land. Why don''t you rebel!" Zheng Chang laughed wildly in his heart.


    Others dare not lower their heads silently and dare not look at Li Shimin''s eyes.


    "Where do you want to seal this million hectares of land?" Li Shimin said slowly, his voice was calm, and there was no waves at all.


    Merton seemed unaware and said, "I want to seal my daughter''s fief in Yulin ancient city."


    "Yulin ancient city!" Li Shimin frowned. Yulin was clear, but he couldn''t remember where the ancient city of Yulin in the Tang Dynasty was.


    "Auxiliary machine, do you know where the ancient city of Yulin is?" Li Shimin turned and asked changsun Wuji. Changsun Wuji is Princess Changle''s uncle and Princess Changle''s daughter. At the full moon, he will naturally come, but changsun Wuji is very low-key and doesn''t show off like Zheng''s family master.


    Hearing Li Shimin''s inquiry, sun Wuji thought for a moment and suddenly remembered: "Your Majesty, Yulin ancient city was originally in the Mu Us desert north of the Great Wall, but it has been abandoned due to the invasion of yellow sand. Yulin City has moved south. Now the periphery of Yulin ancient city has been surrounded by desert, and now it is a vast desert."


    Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and looked at Merton puzzled and said, "you want to seal your daughter''s land in the vast desert. Even if there are millions of hectares of land, they are all desert. You can''t raise cattle without a grass! Are you sure you''re right!"


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I didn''t say anything. Once upon a time, Yulin ancient city was an important town. It was a land of abundant water and grass in the Han Dynasty. Now it has become a vast desert, which is really sad."


    Yulin ancient city, known as camel city and desert city, was once the most fertile land, but now it has become a piece of ruins.


    "Vicissitudes of the sea, but so!" most of you are full of poetry and books. Naturally, you know that Yulin ancient city was a land of abundant water and grass before, but now it is abandoned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, the abandonment of Yulin ancient city is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster."


    "Man made disaster!" suddenly everyone could not help frowning.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, the ancient city of Yulin was originally a land rich in water and grass, but it has become a vast desert in hundreds of years. It is the desertification caused by overgrazing and over reclamation by herdsmen. If it is not treated, it will continue to expand with the continuous erosion of Maowusu Desert in the future. According to Mohist statistics, Maowusu Desert will expand one mile every year. At that time, Yulin will not move to the city It is not impossible for Yulin to move three times. "


    Now the Mu Us desert has just formed, with a scale of about one million hectares, and the difficulty of governance is much lower than that of later generations. This is also the reason why Merton took the initiative to govern the Mu Us Desert.


    "Three relocation of Yulin!" Li Shimin''s face sank. Merton''s words are amazing, but they will not come true. After all, Yulin City has been moved once. If the Mu Us desert has been expanding, it is expected to move twice.


    "What''s more, even one day, when the Mu Us Desert spreads behind the Great Wall, the yellow sand all over the sky will bury the Great Wall under the influence of the strong wind, and the natural danger of the Great Wall will become a smooth road. At that time, the natural danger of the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed." Merton said proudly.


    "The natural danger of the Great Wall was destroyed!" suddenly everyone couldn''t help taking a breath. The Great Wall is the most important barrier of the Tang Dynasty. If it was buried by yellow sand, the cavalry on the grassland could easily cross the natural danger of the great wall and come straight to Chang''an, which is a lot of threats.


    "Mo Hou is somewhat alarmist!"


    Zheng''s family leader disagreed. Although what Merton said has a certain truth, in his heart, Merton''s move must be covered by the millions of hectares of land he said. And this is 400 years later. The Tang Dynasty does not necessarily inherit it for 400 years!


    The elder sun Wuji shook his head and said, "it''s not alarmist. The ancient city of Yulin is less than 400 miles away from the Great Wall, and it''s a smooth road. According to the speed of desert expansion, I''m afraid it has reached the foot of the Great Wall in less than 400 years. It''s not impossible to bury the Great Wall with the power of wind and sand."


    In the Ming Dynasty, the burial of the Great Wall in yellow sand was the biggest headache of the Ming Dynasty, which spent a lot of money to pick up sand.


    Merton arched his hand and said: "indeed, and the Mu Us desert is just within the bend of the Yellow River. There are a large number of tributaries of the Yellow River, most of which flow into the Yellow River. As long as the Mu Us desert can be controlled, it will be of great benefit to the project of controlling the Yellow River."


    Once the Mu Us desert is controlled, the Yellow River will reduce a lot of sediment, which is of great benefit to the control of the Yellow River.


    "Since Mo Hou wants to take Yulin ancient city as his beloved daughter''s fief, does he already have a way to control the desert?" Xiao Rui said inconceivably. It''s a deserted desert, with no grass and no birds and animals. Although there are millions of hectares, it''s a fief. Only investment but no income. This is an extremely heavy burden, just like the Mojia village in those years, I''m afraid the MOH mansion will collapse sooner or later.


    Merton nodded solemnly: "Yes, the Mu Us desert is the closest desert to the Central Plains than any desert encountered during the western expedition. It has not a lot of precipitation, even more than the grasslands of Turks in the north. As long as there is precipitation, there will be plants. In this way, the difficulty of controlling the Mu Us desert will be much lower. As long as we persevere, prevent wind, fix sand and plant grass, sooner or later, The Mu Us desert covered with yellow sand will disappear and become an oasis spreading over millions of hectares. "


    "The desert disappeared! Millions of oases!" suddenly everyone couldn''t help but yearn. What a miracle it would be to change the vast desert into green grassland.


    Li Shimin was no longer calm, but couldn''t help holding his granddaughter and said with a frozen face: "do you know what a sin it is to bully the king."


    Merton solemnly said: "As a father at the beginning, Weichen naturally wants to give his daughter the best, and the governance of Maowusu Desert is the greatest blessing Weichen has saved for his daughter. Within three years, Weichen can ensure that Maowusu Desert will not expand. In five years, the grass in Maowusu Desert will advance and retreat. In ten years, the governance of Maowusu Desert has achieved initial results, and the rest will let my daughter return a million hectares of green land in Tang Dynasty in her lifetime Land. "


    Suddenly, everyone stared at the small body held by Li Shimin. It is said that Mohist Zi loved his daughter most. Now it seems that the rumor is true. Once the eldest daughter of Mohism has made achievements in governing the Maowusu Desert, no one can move her in the future as long as she has not committed a heinous crime, which is the greatest shelter for her daughter.


    Li Shimin''s eyes softened. Merton may deceive him, but he will never do anything that will damage his daughter''s future. From this, Merton''s governance of the Mu Us desert is indeed sincere and quite sure.


    "Has she ever been named?" Li Shimin said softly, looking at his granddaughter.


    Merton nodded and said, "the name of the Mo house has always been in the name of material objects. Since the little girl''s future is to govern the desert, it''s named after sand and called Mosha!"


    "Mosha, how could a girl have such a rude name." Li Shimin glared at Merton and thought carefully,


    "Sha, Tong Sha Yin, it''s just that my granddaughter is going to plant green grass on the sand. It''s better to add a straw head and call it Mosha!" Li Shimin''s eyes lit up.


    "Your Majesty is really talented!"


    "Your Majesty is brilliant!


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Suddenly, a group of officials flattered one after another.


    "Thank you for your name!" Merton thanked his daughter.


    Li Shimin thought of a good name and heard it praised by the people. At that moment, Longyan Dayue said, "Mosha is my granddaughter. Today I will make you princess Jinsha, with a million hectares on the back cover."


    Everyone looked at the swaddling Princess Jinsha with envious eyes. In less than 20 years, a new rich man in Chang''an City has risen slowly.

 Chapter 1007

    In the inner house, the empress changsun is accompanying Princess Changle to speak self-conscious words, but Princess Changle''s mind is involuntarily placed outside. Her daughter is often around and suddenly held out. She can''t rest assured and can''t help looking out.


    "Don''t worry, with Merton and your father and emperor, you have nothing to worry about." empress changsun looked at her absent-minded daughter and naturally knew that Princess Changle was thinking of becoming a mother at the beginning, so she couldn''t help teasing.


    "A group of big men have thick hands and feet. What if they hurt their daughter? Liu e, go and have a look." the princess of Changle was restless and stretched out her hand to order Liu E.


    "Yes! Princess!"


    Liu e was ordered to leave. After a while, she hurried back with a happy face and reported: "Congratulations, princess. Your majesty has personally granted the lady Princess and a fief."


    "Fief!" Princess Changle was surprised and looked up at the motionless empress changsun. Then she suddenly realized that her mother had already known about it.


    Liu e nodded and said, "childe Xiao proposed to seal the lady''s land in Songjiang mansion, and the master of Zheng proposed to seal the lady''s land in the grassland."


    "Go and see if it''s in the South or the North!" Princess Changle couldn''t help but wonder.


    Liu e soon left and hurried back to report: "back to the princess, mohou chose the north."


    "The north is OK. With 10000 hectares of grassland, it''s just like grazing cattle and making milk powder." Princess Changle nodded, which was almost the same as what she thought in her heart.


    Liu e''s face was strange and said, "Princess Hui, what mohou chose was not a million hectares of grassland, but a million hectares of desert."


    "A million hectares of desert." in an instant, even the empress Chang sun, who was not surprised by honor or disgrace, lost her voice and exclaimed.


    Million hectares, or desert! Either one is unbelievable, but the Mo family chose both at the same time.


    As Liu e explored again, Merton''s plan to control the desert came little by little until Liu e held Martha and put her in the arms of Princess Changle. The mother and daughter were still in a dream.


    "Martha!"


    "Princess Jinsha!"


    "What a blessed child."


    The eldest grandson looked at the sleeping Martha and couldn''t help smiling. With such a father, her granddaughter is probably the happiest person in the world.


    With the end of the banquet of the eldest daughter of the Mohist family, the name of Jinsha Princess Mosha spread all over Chang''an City in an instant.


    "A million hectares of land!"


    "Desert turns green."


    As the hot news spread out, Chang''an city was boiling again in an instant.


    "A million hectares of land is probably the princess with the most land in history." many people smacked.


    More people said coldly, "don''t say it''s a princess. Even princesses of all dynasties don''t have so many fiefs."


    A million hectares of land is so vast that it is almost equivalent to a vassal, but it is in the hands of a baby who has just reached the full moon.


    "What about a million hectares? What can you do if you seal the 800 mile vast sea in the western regions? What really shocked the world was the crazy plan of Mohist school to turn the desert into green space, which was even crazier than a madman." a scholar still couldn''t believe it.


    "If others say so, they must be regarded as crazy, but for Mohists, it is not an impossible miracle," a merchant firmly said.


    After all, the miracles created by mojiazi have long been unknown. Although it is difficult to control the Maowusu Desert, as for mojiazi, the desert has just formed, but there is a lot of precipitation. It is the easiest desert to control. In addition, mojiazi regards the Maowusu Desert as his daughter''s fief, It also makes the world believe that mojiazi must have the secret skill of controlling the desert.


    "It''s a million hectares of desert, not a small sand pile. Maybe Mozi can plant several trees in the desert, but it''s a dream to turn this million hectares of sand into an oasis." more people doubt that Mozi''s move is beyond their imagination, and it''s no wonder they are difficult to accept it.


    "Mo boy, you really have the secret skills to control the desert!" Su Lingnong, the big Si Nong, said impatiently in the Mo house. Now the land boundary of the Tang Dynasty is not only the ancient city of Yulin, which is threatened by wind and sand. For a long time, farming has made desertification very serious. Coupled with the continuous invasion of the desert, from the perspective of farmers, let alone controlling the desert, Even if we can trap the desert and make it no longer expand, it is already a great achievement, let alone turn the vast desert into green space.


    Merton nodded and said, "all this needs the help of the farmers."


    Su Lingnong couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "mohou really thinks highly of the farmers. If the farmers really have a way, they won''t sit back and watch the Maowusu Desert grow from scratch."


    "The premise of controlling the desert is that you can''t overgraze and reclaim around Yulin, otherwise the Mu Us desert will be a lesson, and everything the Mohists have done will come to naught, which still needs the coordination of Lord su." Merton solemnly said. Su Lingnong is in charge of the Si Nong temple and has a decisive influence on agriculture. With the coordination of the Si Nong temple, the overgrazing situation in Yulin area can certainly be improved.


    Su Lingnong nodded slowly and said, "it should be so. I will make the Si Nong Temple focus on Yulin County and certainly not let the remaining grassland continue to desertification."


    Merton nodded with satisfaction and continued: "as long as there is no over reclamation, it is not difficult to control the desert. It is nothing more than windbreak, sand fixation and grass planting. The real difficulty is the huge amount of work, and the speed of control usually can not keep up with the speed of wind and sand damage."


    "Windbreak, sand fixation and grass planting! Please help me!" Su Lingnong bowed to ask for advice.


    "The reason why the desert is constantly eroding is that the strong northwest wind is constantly blowing the sand south. If you want to control the desert, you must widely plant trees, stop the wind and fix the sand dunes. Only in this way can you plant grass and restore the green space." Merton solemnly said.


    Su Lingnong shook his head and said, "everyone knows the truth, but it is difficult to implement it. The desert is deserted, extremely dry, there is no water, no grass, let alone planting trees."


    Merton smiled mysteriously, "who says there are no trees in the desert."


    Su Lingnong thought intently and said in his heart, "is it Populus euphratica, Salix, cactus and other plants that Marquis mohou said?"


    Populus euphratica and Salix psammophila are common plants in the desert. The trees are tall and extremely dry. If they are widely planted, they may have miraculous effects, and it is not difficult for farmers who control the method of seedling cultivation.


    Merton nodded and said, "Populus euphratica and Salix psammophilus are indeed sharp tools for controlling the desert. However, what makes Mo''s heart move is another kind of tree, Haloxylon ammodendron."


    "Shuttle tree!" Su Lingnong couldn''t help but be stunned. After thinking for a long time, he remembered the humble little tree in the agricultural book in his mind.


    "Yes! If you want to manage the desert well, the Haloxylon tree is the top priority." Merton said.


    "What is the magic of this tree?" asked Su Lingnong.


    Merton laughed and couldn''t help thinking of the later experience of stealing energy in the middle of the night just to plant a Haloxylon tree in the desert. Now he knew the way like the back of his hand: "First, one of the miracles of Haloxylon ammodendron. In its seeds, Haloxylon ammodendron seeds germinate the fastest in the world and have the shortest survival time. It only lasts two hours, but as long as you give it a little water, it will immediately sprout and grow deep roots."


    "How amazing!" Su Lingnong said in surprise.


    "This is only one of them. Second, in order to survive in the desert, the Haloxylon ammodendron has extremely developed roots. A small Haloxylon ammodendron is only one foot high, but its roots can reach as much as ten feet, and the sand fixation effect is excellent."


    Su Lingnong was a little confused. According to Merton, this Haloxylon tree is indeed extraordinary, but the desertification control effect is not much different from that of Salix psammophila.


    "Third, Haloxylon ammodendron has a more magical place, that is, its developed root system will be accompanied by a precious traditional Chinese medicine, Cistanche deserticola," Merton solemnly said.


    "Desert ginseng, Cistanche deserticola!" Su Lingnong said in surprise. He had heard of Cistanche deserticola.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, it''s the so-called place of fortune and misfortune. It is precisely because the Haloxylon tree is accompanied by such precious medicinal materials that the Haloxylon tree is destroyed. In order to get the Cistanche deserticola, greedy herdsmen directly dig out all the roots of the Haloxylon tree, take away the Cistanche deserticola, and let the Haloxylon tree wither and die."


    "Sure enough, as Marquis Mo said, the spread of the desert is indeed a man-made disaster!" Su Lingnong sighed.


    "However, if Mo Hou wants to widely plant Haloxylon ammodendron, aren''t you afraid of the same experience?"


    Merton shook his head and said: "The ultimate goal of Mohism is not Cistanche deserticola, but Haloxylon ammodendron for sand fixation and wind prevention. Mohism will widely plant Haloxylon ammodendron in Maowusu Desert, and then cultivate it manually through farmhouse cultivation. For the benefit of Cistanche, Mohism does not want it, but can give it to herdsmen. However, herdsmen can''t stop fishing. After digging Cistanche, they need to leave roots so that they can be harvested in the coming year. At the same time, they should also be responsible for maintaining the Haloxylon ammodendron The obligation of the shuttle tree. Some people in Lord Su don''t know that if a shuttle tree is properly maintained, it can survive for 100 years, and Cistanche deserticola can also harvest for 100 years. "


    "Misfortune is a blessing. The Haloxylon ammodendron tree suffered a great misfortune because of Cistanche deserticola. Now, due to the hand of marquis Mo, this misfortune has been transformed into a blessing. On the contrary, Haloxylon ammodendron tree has survived for a hundred years because of Cistanche deserticola. In this way, the desert has been afforested, the herdsmen have a harvest, and will no longer destroy the desert. Instead, they will take the initiative to plant and maintain Haloxylon trees. It''s amazing. Marquis Mo, please accept the old man''s advice "I''ll worship you," Su Lingnong exclaimed.


    Merton quickly turned sideways and said, "Lord Su praised me. This is not Merton''s plan, but the amazing idea of the Mohist predecessors. I''m just picking up people''s wisdom."


    "Su admired the wisdom of Mohism." Su Lingnong sighed.


    Merton arched his hand and said, "everything still needs the cooperation of farmers. We still need to bother farmers to cultivate Haloxylon ammodendron seedlings and Cistanche deserticola."


    Su Lingnong said solemnly, "this is the honor of the farmer!"


    This time, Su Lingnong really determined that it was not vain to govern the Mu Us Desert according to the method of Mohism.

 Chapter 1008

    Jinsha Princess Mosha has millions of hectares of land, and the heat of the fief has not subsided. The Mohist plan to control the Mu Us Desert was published again in the ink magazine, which once again caused a sensation in Chang''an city.


    "Grass squares! The desert is windy and sandy, so it is difficult to store water. The ink family actually uses the idea of grass squares to preserve water, prevent wind and fix sand. There are some ways," exclaimed countless Ink magazine readers.


    For a long time, no one has ever thought of controlling the desert, and mojiazi not only took the initiative to put forward, but also his plan is practical. What he uses is only dry straw, which is cheap, affordable and easy to use, but also local materials.


    "Populus euphratica and Salix psammophila, there are such tough plants in the world." anyone knows that the desert climate is extremely cruel, but there is still life living tenaciously.


    Of course, what is more amazing is the magical Haloxylon ammodendron tree. The story of the interdependence between Haloxylon ammodendron tree and Cistanche deserticola has been talked about by countless people.


    For a long time, the reason why the world suspected that mojiazi''s desert governance was just shouting slogans was that desert governance was an investment without any benefit. Haloxylon ammodendron and Cistanche deserticola provided practical benefits for desert governance. Naturally, someone would plant Haloxylon ammodendron for Cistanche deserticola, so as to make the desert green.


    "Whimsically, these Cistanche deserticola grow in wasteland and will also be stolen and dug up by drug collectors." an idle man sneered.


    "Poaching, it''s the vast desert. If it''s not for the local people, who dares to go deep. Moreover, the former Haloxylon tree has no owner, but now the Haloxylon tree has a owner. The whole million hectares of desert is the fief of Princess Jinsha. The Mohists only need to allocate a good area to the herdsmen, who devote themselves to the conservation of Haloxylon tree for the sake of Cistanche deserticola nature."


    "Moreover, these Cistanche deserticola are artificially cultivated by farmers. They are marked everywhere. They will not dig their roots and damage the Haloxylon tree like before."


    "Moreover, these Cistanche deserticola doctors will specially purchase them. Anyone who dares to steal the Haloxylon tree can certainly find out."


    In a few words, they blocked the way to steal Cistanche deserticola. What they could think of naturally made mojiazi think that in the past, Haloxylon ammodendron trees were not managed by anyone. Now Maowusu has become the fief of Princess Jinsha, which naturally does not allow greedy drug collectors to dig indiscriminately.


    "The governance of the Mu Us Desert this time is to plant trees by Mohists, cultivate Cistanche deserticola by farmers, purchase by doctors and cooperate with the three. It is certain that the desert will become an oasis in a hundred years, as envisaged by Mohists."


    Countless people were excited. Even those who didn''t believe that mojiazi could succeed would be surprised to see Merton''s plan to control the desert.


    "Mozi is worthy of Mozi."


    They exclaimed that Mohist was still acting in the same style as before. What he did must be huge and meaningful, but the biggest disadvantage was that it cost money. However, this time, Mohist was very righteous in controlling the desert, but he paid for it himself.


    "Mohism!"


    Ordinary people are still so, not to mention hundreds of families are amazed at it, turning the desert into an oasis, so that hundreds of people once again marvel at the mind and means of Mohism.


    Kong Yingda looked at the ink magazine in his hand for a long time. Confucianism has been the mainstream voice of China since he deposed a hundred schools and respected Confucianism alone. However, now, the sudden rise of Mohism has amazed countless people. The emerging ink skills and haunting means of Mohists have made Mohism like the sun.


    Confucianism focuses on people and is famous for its morality and etiquette, while Mohism focuses on things and changes people''s lives with ink skills one by one. Now it can change the theory of heaven and earth. In today''s Tang Dynasty, the reputation of Mohism has been vaguely in line with Confucianism, and the former theory of non Confucianism or ink appears again.


    Even Kong Yingda had to admit that what Mohism did was indeed beneficial to the country and the people, and it was a blank in Confucian knowledge, which made him clearly know that Mohism was rising and becoming a strong opponent of Confucianism, but he had to admire it.


    Kong Desheng, on one side, said emphatically, "the Mohist school is indeed extraordinary. However, the problem of Confucianism now lies in itself and has no inch progress."


    Kong Yingda closed the newspaper, nodded and said, "even so, now the Mohist school is making great strides, and now it can''t sit idle. The process of Library and primary school needs to be accelerated. Kong huisuo is informed to speed up the progress and promote homonymous Confucianism."


    Homonymy is a rare opportunity for Confucianism. Once completed, the prestige of Confucianism will be further, which Confucianism can''t miss anyway.


    "However, today''s Mohists are not worried. Only after Mohists have really passed the level of five surnames and seven looks can they become the real opponent of Confucianism." Kong Desheng said with deep eyes.


    Although the Mohist school went to the south of the Yangtze River and opened a road, the center of the Tang Dynasty is still in the Central Plains. In the north, one of the Mohist sons went to the south of the Yangtze River and the other went to the desert. However, the Central Plains is almost blank. Anyone can see that the crisis of the Mohist school has not been lifted.


    The Zheng family is not in the hospital.


    Zheng Chang looked at the Mohist''s plan to control the desert and couldn''t help laughing: "is the Mohist a fool? How much money should he put into the sand! Just to pave the way for his daughter."


    In his opinion, Merton''s daughter is the worst and the princess. She is destined to be rich and prosperous in her life. But the Mohists have invested a lot of money for her daughter. Isn''t it superfluous.


    Zheng''s master sneered: "you underestimate the Mohist family. The Mohist family''s move is not only for their own daughter, but for the Mohist family."


    "For the sake of Mohism! If you invest so much money, you may bring down Mohism." Zheng Changleng snorted.


    The master of the Zheng family looked at his son and sighed, "even if you spend more money, Mohism will give full support. Mohism has been silent for thousands of years, and there is an urgent need for a grand project to show the style of Mohism. Ask the world, what is more shocking and more valued than turning a million hectares of desert into an oasis."


    "As long as the Maowusu Desert is successfully controlled, the magic of Mohism will always be recorded in the history books, and then Mohism will really gain a foothold in the Tang Dynasty. If it is said that the homonym is the Centennial plan of Confucianism, and the management of Maowusu Desert is the Centennial plan of Mohism and the battle of fixing the foundation of Mohism. After that, no one underestimates Mohism."


    Zheng Chang frowned and said, "it''s impossible for the Mo family to plan so far for the five surnames and seven hopes."


    Zheng''s master nodded and said, "that''s right. When my father heard that Mozi chose his daughter''s fief in the desert, he had guessed the voice of Mozi and had no contact with Mozi."


    "Then what should we do? Should we bow to the Mo family?" Zheng Chang frowned. Now, with the support of the south of the Yangtze River, the Holy Family of the Mohists is growing. The Mohists have no fear. Should we let the five surnames and seven hopes turn their heads to beg the Mohists.


    Zheng''s family leader sneered and said, "it''s naturally impossible to bow to the son of the Mohist family. Although the full moon ceremony of the eldest daughter of the Mohist family failed to achieve her wish, her father saw the flaws of the Mohist family and the Jiangnan aristocratic family."


    "The flaw of Mohism and Jiangnan aristocratic family." Zheng Chang immediately didn''t understand.


    "Now Mohism cooperates with Jiangnan, but Jiangnan aristocratic families also don''t want to see a strong Mohism, otherwise they suggest that the fief of the eldest daughter of Mohism should be in the south of Chang''an City, not Songjiang mansion." Zheng''s family master sneered.


    "Father means we can use this as a breakthrough," Zheng thought.


    Zheng''s family leader nodded and said, "yes, whether it''s a five surnamed Qiwang or a Jiangnan aristocratic family, our essence is an aristocratic family. What the aristocratic family seeks is nothing more than their own interests, while the concept of a hundred families is to have the world in mind and be selfless. They are not the same people and will go their separate ways sooner or later."


    "Then we......" Zheng Chang couldn''t help but feel a move in his heart and wanted to take the opportunity to provoke the relationship between Mohism and Jiangnan.


    Zheng''s master Lang said: "We don''t do anything but wait! Now Mohism and Jiangnan are in the honeymoon period. Whatever we do is useless. However, in the next three years, the contradiction between them will become more and more serious. We just need a little help. They will go their separate ways. At that time, there will be a break with Jiangnan aristocratic families, and then there will be Mu Us Desert. At that time, Mohism will have no way back. That''s me Wait for the moment to convince the Mohists. "


    "Father is wise!" Zheng Chang suddenly realized and said with admiration.

 Chapter 1009

    Time is running slowly, like a white horse passing through a gap. Three years have passed quickly.


    In the past three years, the Tang Dynasty has been on the rise all over the world and its national strength is booming. In the south of the Yangtze River, with the smooth development of the south of the Yangtze River, the whole south of the Yangtze River is changing with each passing day, especially after the brick road connecting the north and the South has been built in the past three years, the whole south of the Yangtze River is glowing with dazzling vitality.


    In the Central Plains, with the retreat of the power of Mojia village, leaving a large number of market gaps, workshops have sprung up one by one, constantly encroaching on the market, the competition is extremely fierce, and the industry and commerce are extremely prosperous.


    In the north, with the investment of Mohism regardless of cost, the Mu Us desert has not expanded for three years. Tens of thousands of hectares of Haloxylon trees and other desert objects stubbornly survive in the grass grid, like a green iron chain firmly tying the desert monster.


    Many people did not believe that the Mohists would put real gold and silver into the vast desert. They went to the Mu Us desert to find out in person. They saw that under the yellow sand and in the most cruel environment, every tenacious life was convinced by the Mohists.


    However, mojiazi is not only planting trees, but also reasonably grazing with surrounding herdsmen, raising dairy cows and processing them into milk powder,


    After three years, milk powder has become popular in the Tang Dynasty and fed countless babies. With Princess Jinsha as an example, milk powder has become the best choice for ordinary families. After all, not every family happens to have dairy cows and sheep, and fresh sheep''s milk and milk are not completely suitable for the baby''s stomach. The milk powder processed by Mohist school does not have this hidden worry.


    At the beginning, there were dignitaries who were unwilling to use milk powder and still chose nursing mothers. However, over time, the nutrition and convenience of milk powder have been confirmed. More and more dignitaries abandoned nursing mothers. Of course, another important reason is that feeding infants with milk powder saves a lot of expenses than using nursing mothers.


    In their spare time, the herdsmen will go deep into the Haloxylon ammodendron forest, find the marks marked last year, dig out the formed Cistanche deserticola, and after all this, they will not forget to pour a pot of water on the Haloxylon ammodendron tree, bury the excavated sand pile, and wait for another harvest next year.


    With the income from Cistanche deserticola and milk, coupled with the implementation of mojiazi''s green stock feed, fixed grazing prevailed in Yulin County, and the income of herdsmen increased greatly, far exceeding that of nomads in all parts of the grassland, which greatly increased the prestige of Mojia. Whether going south or North, it brought prosperity and strength to the local area.


    The reputation of Mohist school is increasing day by day, while Mohist Zi and Mohist village continue to dormant. Mohist village continues to stick to Chang''an Luoyang market, while Mohist Zi has become a complete daughter slave. The original emerging Mohist ink skills have become novel children''s toys.


    During the three quiet years, it has become the happiest moment for the children of Datang. Whenever Merton makes a toy for his daughter, it will quickly spread all over Chang''an City, appear in the hands of children in the streets in less than ten days, and spread all over Datang in a month.


    Small ones are windmills, scooters, balance cars, building blocks, water guns, and even large ones are Ferris wheels specially built with Mohist ink technology. What''s more, Mohist children will gather a lot of fun and buy a piece of land in the most expensive area of Chang''an city to build a children''s paradise for their daughters and all children to play.


    "Father, I''ll play again tomorrow?" Merton took his daughter''s hand and came out outside the children''s paradise. Martha said excitedly.


    "No, tomorrow is the beginning of kindergarten. You''re going to school!" Merton shook his head without hesitation.


    Moshaton pulled his small face and said, "father, I don''t want to go to school?"


    "That''s not good. The kindergarten in Chang''an city is the product planned by Aunt purple and aunt Gongsun for three years, but it''s specially created for you. If you don''t go, won''t it hurt them?" Merton gently advised.


    "But I don''t want to leave my father!" said Martha with a wronged face.


    "After school, my father will go back to pick you up, and there will be many children playing together in the kindergarten. They can also learn painting and dancing. It''s fun," Merton seduced.


    Merton said good or bad, and Martha agreed with an unhappy face.


    "I didn''t expect that the noble Mohist family should be reduced to such a place! It''s really sad." suddenly a sarcasm came from one side.


    "If we don''t want to make progress, we are ashamed to be with that generation."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    I saw Qin Huaiyu three people, I do not know when they appeared behind Merton, with a look of contempt.


    "It''s no use. I''ve persuaded him many times, but it''s useless," Zu Mingjun said helplessly.


    "Uncles, don''t tell me about my father!" Martha threatened.


    "Yo! It''s worthy of brother Mo''s little cotton padded jacket. I''ll protect it." Qin Huaiyu said in surprise.


    Merton picked up Martha and said with a smile, "son is not a fish. Ann knows the joy of fish. You are bent on pursuing mundane affairs, but you don''t know that accompanying your family is the greatest joy of life."


    "Oh! That''s not what brother Mo said when he sent a letter to deceive me from my hometown to Chang''an city." Zu Mingjun countered.


    "I''m even worse. Brother Mo made an impassioned speech and went south to Yazhou, a poor mountain and water for three years, while brother Mo enjoyed the happiness of his family in the prosperous Chang''an city." Kong huisuo''s voice appeared and joined the ranks of crusading against Merton.


    "Qin Huaiyu, the three of you are now just five good generals. You have the same official rank as mo. how dare you say that you are ashamed to be with mo."


    "Brother Zu doesn''t know the good people even more. He has been a leader in the calculation of the Tang Dynasty since he came to Chang''an City for three years. It''s much better than staying at home."


    "As for brother Kong, over the past three years, he has turned an elegant state where people eat their hair and drink their blood into the richest state of the Liao people. There are poems and books everywhere. He is no different from Chang''an city. My little brother has also been well-known in Chang''an city."


    Merton suddenly turned his head and couldn''t help smiling at each other when he saw that his once good brothers appeared one after another.


    Over the past three years, all the brothers have grown by leaps and bounds and become the backbone of the new generation, but he is still standing still.


    "Why are you here!" the Merton remembered after the brothers frolicked for a while.


    "Today is the day when brother Kong''s education is complete and he will return home. We will meet brother Kong together and wash the dust." Qin Huaiyu Lang said.


    "The enlightenment is complete and the day of return." Merton looked up at Kong Hui''s cableway in surprise. "Brother Kong has completed the method of homonymy."


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help showing a trace of pride and said, "it took three years and finally succeeded. Please correct brother mo."


    When Kong huisuo finished, he handed over a brand-new dictionary. Merton opened it and looked at it. Compared with the first edition of the dictionary, there have been comprehensive changes. Each word can be queried not only by initials and finals, but also by pinyin notes and even tones. It is not very different from later generations. It is indeed a complete pinyin system.


    "Brother Kong is a great talent. So far, there is this Pinyin method. The homonymy of the Tang Dynasty is just around the corner." Merton solemnly said.

 Chapter 1010

    In the fish champion restaurant, the wine has passed three rounds!


    The brothers talked about their experiences in recent years and couldn''t help sighing.


    "Although the interior of Datang is booming, the surrounding areas of Datang are not calm. Although brother Mo proposes to send envoys to various countries in the western regions, he is often out of reach. There are Tubo in the South and West Turks in the north, hoping to restore the power of Turks in those days."


    "As for the countries in the western regions, they are even more a wall grass. Tubo came and fell to Tubo, Western Turks came and fell to Turks, and they covet the interests of the Silk Road of the Tang Dynasty. Gaochang and other countries are arrogant, trying to dominate the interests of the Silk Road and constantly provocating the Tang Dynasty. Although big wars can not be fought in a short time, there have been dozens of small-scale conflicts."


    Qin Huaiyu and the three of them could not help sighing that they had also experienced many battles in recent years, and only then did they rise to five grades of merit.


    "Tubo and West Turk have always been the strong enemies of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention, as for the western countries, they are the beneficiaries of the Tang Silk Road, but they want to dominate the silk road. They simply raise a group of white eyed wolves." Zu Mingjun was filled with righteous indignation.


    Kong huisuo nodded and said, "the countries in the western regions are barbarians. Without the Enlightenment of saints, naturally there are many perfidious people."


    Merton shook his head and said, "this has nothing to do with education. There are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests. As long as there is a conflict of interests, not to mention the countries in the western regions, there will be a conflict between the two countries as civilized as the Tang Dynasty."


    Kong huisuo was stunned and couldn''t help frowning and thinking. From this point of view, we can see that Confucianism and Mohism have different ideas. Confucianism attaches importance to internal education and Mohism attaches importance to external interests. The two have different ideas. Isn''t it doomed to conflict.


    "There are no eternal friends between countries, but only eternal interests. It''s not because of the interests of the seven heroes in the Warring States period. Brother Mo said it." Zu Mingjun was proficient in mathematics and attached great importance to rationality. He couldn''t help praising Merton. Merton''s words won his heart.


    "Brother Mo has this talent, but he wasted three years. Isn''t it a tyrant?" Zu Mingjun regretted.


    Chumo hummed coldly, "brother Mo didn''t waste three years. In these three years, the fun and delicious food in Chang''an city came from brother mo. now Brother Mo is an idol in the eyes of children."


    Merton smiled bitterly and quickly changed the topic and said, "I''ve told you all. Brother Zu also talked about the recent situation. I don''t know whether the construction of Weishui bridge is smooth or not."


    Suddenly everyone looked at Zu Mingjun. The Weishui bridge is a super project in Chang''an. The total construction period is five years. Now four years have passed, and it''s time to calculate.


    "With the steel and steel cables provided by the Mohists, the construction of the Weishui bridge was carried out in an orderly manner, but......" Zu Mingjun said, and couldn''t help pausing, revealing a trace of hidden worries on his face.


    "Just what?" Merton frowned.


    "But brother Li''s body has a problem. It didn''t hurt at all. Now it''s not good for walking. There''s a rumor in the court that he wants to replace brother Li." Zu Mingjun said with a sad face.


    "Brother Li, are you talking about Li Yun after Li Chun, who presided over the construction of the Weishui bridge?" Kong huisuo said in surprise.


    "Yes, that''s him! It''s a pity that Tianzong was a genius and suddenly suffered such a strange disease!" Zu Mingjun sighed.


    "Bad walking! Why didn''t Xiangfu''s pulse say?" Merton raised his eyebrows. Li Yun had such a big problem, and he didn''t get the news.


    Zu Mingjun frowned and said, "brother Li has been trying his best to support and doesn''t want people to find out. However, he has been in a wheelchair recently."


    "In a wheelchair!" the crowd couldn''t help but be in an uproar.


    "Then don''t hurry to see Mo hospital. Now Mo hospital has superb medical skills, and doctor sun is in charge. I believe brother Li can recover his health." Kong Hui sorang said.


    Zu Mingjun shook his head and said, "it''s useless. Brother Li''s disease is very strange. Even doctor sun can''t diagnose it, and there''s no medicine to cure."


    "God is jealous of talents!" Kong huisuo sighed. After Li Chun, Li Yun shoulders the reputation of the Mohist Xiangfu family. In addition, he presides over the magnificent Weishui bridge, but he is on a par with him in reputation and achievement. Now he is suffering from a strange disease. How can he not sigh.


    "We''re just getting together today. Why don''t we go and see brother Li?" Chumo suggested.


    "Great kindness!" they whispered. They couldn''t help feeling sorry for Li Yun and couldn''t help but feel the urge to see him.


    At that moment, without hesitation, they immediately went downstairs and rushed to the Weishui bridge in the north of Chang''an city. They knew that if they wanted to find Li Yun, there was only one place.


    "Young master, go slowly!" fish two bowed to each other outside the fish champion building.


    Merton nodded and said in his heart, "Yuer, please go to ask doctor sun and a group of doctors to go to the Weishui bridge to consult brother Li."


    "Yes, young master!" the second fish took orders and ran to the Mo hospital immediately.


    When a crowd arrived at the Weishui bridge, they saw that the majestic Weishui bridge had initially taken shape, two huge piers rose into the sky, and thigh thick steel cables crisscrossed, which made people wonder.


    "It''s incredible that this bridge was built by human beings." Kong huisuo couldn''t help exclaiming that the Weishui bridge uses steel tendons and iron bones, which is an unprecedented architectural miracle of mankind. Even the Zhaozhou Bridge, which is called the miracle of the bridge industry, can''t compare with the Weishui bridge in front of him.


    Zu Mingjun couldn''t help but say solemnly, "brother Li has worked hard for this bridge. Even the children of Xiangfu family have lost three people on this bridge. More than a dozen ordinary workers have died because of this bridge. Even brother Li has a strange disease. Xiangfu family has paid too much for this bridge."


    In an instant, the people looked at the young man in a wheelchair at the head of the bridge, who was Li Yun. At the moment, the hero of the Weishui bridge was being heckled by a head of the Ministry of works.


    "Craftsman Li, you''re just a cripple now. What''s the use of guarding the Weishui bridge? If there''s something wrong, how can you explain to the court? It''s better to resign as the chief engineer and let the court choose other talents." the head of the work department pressed.


    Li Yun shook his head firmly and said, "my lord doesn''t know. This is measured by Li inch by inch. All the structures are well known, and there will be no mistakes. If the handover is rash and the newcomers are not familiar with the Weishui bridge, I''m afraid it''s the easiest to make mistakes. As my Lord said, no one can bear the responsibility in case of an accident.


    The head of the Ministry of work sneered and said, "then don''t worry about craftsman Li. There are many talents in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, some people accept it."


    The head of the Ministry of works looked at the bridge that was about to be completed, and his eyes were hot. As long as he could take over the bridge, once it was completed, he must be the brightest star of Datang. As for Li Yun, who still remembered him after four years of construction.


    "No, even if someone is willing to take over and want to regain control of the structure of the Weishui bridge, it may take a long time, but it will certainly delay the delivery of the bridge." Li Yun tried to argue.


    "This is inevitable. Even if the delivery is delayed, I believe the imperial court can understand it. Craftsman Li just needs to resign." the head of the work department said proudly.


    Li Yun''s face suddenly sank. I''m afraid the reason why they delayed the delivery was that he was suffering from a strange disease. The credit for the construction of the bridge was taken by coincidence, but the black pot of delayed delivery was left to him.


    "Li Jiangzuo''s order to preside over the construction of the Weishui bridge was personally appointed by his majesty, that is, to dismiss Li Jiangzuo. Perhaps his Majesty''s order can''t be decided by a head of the Ministry of works." Merton directly came forward and said proudly.


    "Who... Mo... Mo Hou!" the head of the Ministry of works was furious and suddenly turned to get angry. He suddenly saw where Merton couldn''t help staying. He didn''t expect that Merton, who had been dormant for three years, came to the construction site of Weishui bridge at this time.


    "Get out of here! A small head of the work department dares to embarrass brother Li! If I see you again, you will look good!" Qin Huaiyu stretched out his fist and snorted coldly.


    The head of the Ministry of works blushed angrily. He didn''t expect that his good deeds had been destroyed. At present, he said angrily: "I''ll play this matter to the court to see if the court will let a disabled person build the Weishui bridge."


    After driving away the head of the work department, Merton looked at Li Yun and was sad. He saw that Li Yun, who was originally a handsome childe, was extremely thin by the disease.


    "Brother Li! Why so!" Merton quickly stepped forward and arched his hands.


    "This is the honor of Xiangfu''s family. Let alone the three children of Xiangfu''s family have suffered from a strange disease. Even if we all suffer from this, Xiangfu''s family will come one after another to repair the bridge without hesitation." Li Yun said calmly.


    Even in a wheelchair, Li Yun raised his hand, but it was unforgettable.


    "Brother Li is too persistent. The Weishui bridge can be repaired slowly. If you compensate brother Li, it will be the loss of Datang," Merton advised.


    Li Yun looked at Merton and said solemnly: "The revival of Mohism is not only the responsibility of brother Mo, but also the responsibility of my husband. Now Brother Mo has been dormant for three years not only to avoid the wind, but also to maintain the stable situation of Mohism. In the past three years, there is no shortage of money for the Weishui Bridge. This is the iron and steel bridge in front of you. Since brother Mo is dormant, he has the responsibility to make a name for Mohism It''s his duty to bear the burden of humiliation. Li''s only residual body is not worth mentioning. Brother Mo is the one who bears the burden of humiliation. "


    Everyone could not help but be silent. Although Merton was dormant and tried to maintain the balance between all parties during these three years, the huge funds for the construction of Weishui bridge and the treatment of Maowusu Desert also came from Mojia village. This achievement alone can not be ignored.


    "Three veins of Mohism!" Kong huisuo sighed. Although the three veins have different ideas, each pulse spared no effort for the development of Mohism.


    "The body is the capital to revitalize the Mohist school. Among the 100 schools, the development of which one can not be completed by one person. Mo will settle the affairs of the court. Brother Li''s task is to seize the time to recover the body." Merton comforted.

 Chapter 1011

    Soon, Sun Simiao led the doctors of Mo hospital. Merton greeted him and said, "thank you, doctor sun. Brother Li has a strange disease, but he has always stayed at the construction site of Weishui bridge. Mo took the liberty to think that only when he came to Weishui bridge can he find the root of brother Li''s disease."


    Sun Simiao''s eyes lit up, nodded and said, "this is really a way, Li Xiaoyou. Tell me all your experiences before and after the onset of the disease."


    Li Yun''s illness was unheard of by Sun Simiao. He was very interested in it, so he led the doctors in a hurry.


    Li Yun solemnly said: "about a year ago, when the piers of Weishui bridge were officially built,......."


    As Li Yun spoke slowly, people found out how difficult it was to build the Weishui bridge. It was not easy for Li Yun to preside over such a situation.


    "In the construction site, workers often get infected due to cuts, and then get tetanus. Could it be that craftsman Li did it..." a doctor in Mo hospital doubted.


    Li Yun shook his head and said, "there is indeed a disciple of Xiangfu''s family on the construction site who was cut by rusty iron and died of tetanus. I have checked the whole construction site with a magnet, and Li was not injured.


    Kong huisuo suddenly said, "I heard that there are many parasites in the river. The frightening schistosomiasis in the south of the Yangtze River is spread by snails in the river. Brother Li often goes into the water, isn''t it..."


    Mo Wu has managed schistosomiasis in the two lakes. Even Kong huisuo has heard of it in Yazhou.


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "I have carefully checked Li Xiaoyou''s blood and there is no sign of parasites. What makes me wonder is that Li Xiaoyou''s body has no sign of illness, but it is suddenly bad for the line. Now I use a wheelchair, which is what makes me wonder."


    Suddenly, the doctors frowned and thought hard. Li Yun''s disease was extremely strange. Obviously, he had no disease, but he couldn''t walk.


    Merton suddenly said in his heart, "you just said that you often go into the water..."


    Zu Mingjun nodded and said, "yes, brother Li went into the water for exploration many times in order to build the pier. He went deep into the bottom of the river every time and came up for a long time."


    "It seems that this disease is caused by it," Murton sighed.


    "Mo Hou has already known the cause of the disease." Sun Simiao said in surprise. To know that their doctors don''t have a clue here, and the Mo family knows the answer so quickly.


    Merton nodded and said, "this disease is not a doctor''s disease, but a Mohist disease."


    "Mohism''s disease!" people were not surprised. It''s unheard of to learn Mohism.


    Merton explained: "most common diseases are physical problems or infected by diseases and insect pests, but this disease involves Mohist ink technology, so it is called Mohist disease, not our common disease."


    "Also ask mohou to solve his doubts!" a doctor asked, and everyone focused on Merton.


    Li Yun looked at Merton with hope. He was in his prime of life, but he was infected with such a strange disease. How can he be happy.


    Merton looked around and said: "This is not the first time that this disease has occurred. In the South China Sea, there is a profession called pearl gathering women. These women dive into the water to look for pearl mussels and collect pearls. However, with the deeper the water, the pearls collected are precious. Therefore, many timid and courageous women will dive into the deep water to look for larger pearl mussels and collect more pearls. Over time, some people There will be the same disease as brother Li. The locals call it diving. "


    "Pearl pickers have dived into deep water many times, and brother Li has dived into the bottom of the river many times in order to build piers, which has something in common," Zu Mingjun sighed.


    "It seems to be true. I once saw a similar disease in an ancient medical book, but the ancients did not record its prescription." Sun Simiao suddenly remembered.


    Merton nodded and said, "if you want to treat the disease, you must understand how the disease comes from, which involves Mohist ink skills."


    "Mohist ink technique!" a doctor''s heart moved. He really hadn''t heard of the disease of breaking away from the medical system.


    Merton turned to Li Yun and said, "I don''t know if brother Li still remembers the first time I met."


    Li Yun couldn''t help thinking of the moment that changed his life. He couldn''t help laughing and saying, "it was at the Mohist ink technology exhibition that Li solved the Mohist well killing mystery. Brother Mo kept his promise and paid Wanguan reward."


    "Yes, since brother Li has understood the mystery of well killing, he naturally knows that the air is under pressure before he can press the water out of the ground. How can such a deep river be free from pressure when it is above his head." Merton Lang said.


    "Water pressure!" Li Yun suddenly understood, "yes, when Li just entered the water, there was nothing unusual. However, when he dived into the bottom of the water, he already felt the pressure coming from all sides. It was extremely uncomfortable. He couldn''t hold it back soon. He had to come up and dive again."


    Merton nodded: "The problem is that when the human body dives into the water, the body naturally generates corresponding pressure in the body to maintain balance in order to deal with the external water pressure. However, brother Li quickly surfaced in order to enter the water for many times. At this time, due to brother Li''s rapid floating out, the pressure of the human body is strong, and the external water pressure suddenly disappears. Without the water pressure, the pressure outside the body is naturally weak and the body is weak The pressure inside is strong, and naturally... Boom! "


    Merton said, his folded fingers suddenly opening to him.


    "I see!" with Merton''s dictation and gesture, the people suddenly realized.


    "It''s really a Mohist disease." a group of doctors couldn''t help sighing. It turns out that this world is really a disease that can''t be explained by medical theories.


    "The most vulnerable part of the human body is the eardrum. The first one to be damaged must be the eardrum. If I didn''t expect it, brother Li''s hearing has decreased significantly." Merton looked at Li yundao.


    Li Yun nodded heavily. His symptoms were no worse than Merton''s.


    "It is accompanied by nausea and vomiting, limb weakness, the most serious is bad for walking, and finally even paralyzed in bed." Merton thought of the legendary experience of a famous bridge expert in the future, which is so similar to Li Yun.


    "Paralyzed in bed, it seems that Li''s condition has not reached the most serious time." Li Yunkai said.


    Many people can''t help sighing. Li Yun has been in a wheelchair. I''m afraid it''s not far from the most serious.


    "From brother Mo''s point of view, how to treat it." Zu mingjunlang said.


    "It should be how to avoid repeating the mistakes when building bridges in the future." Li yundao.


    Merton said: "it''s not difficult to avoid this disease. That is, don''t float up in the water too quickly. You need to stay for a while every time you rise. After your body fully adapts to the current water pressure, you can float up slowly, so as to avoid this disease."


    "As for the treatment, first, brother Li can''t go into the water again. Second, he needs to rest. The rest is only doctor sun''s treatment." Merton solemnly said.


    "Everything has a miracle doctor Lao sun." Li Yun took a deep breath in his airway. All along, his strange disease has become a shadow in his heart. Now Merton has solved the cause of the disease, which makes him feel more at ease.


    "It''s a small matter!" Sun Simiao nodded. Today he also opened his eyes.


    "Uncle Tian, if there is no accident, the Ministry of work will certainly write to the imperial court to dismiss brother Li. Then tomorrow, an ink magazine will be published based on brother Li''s example, so that brother Li''s example of dedicating himself to the Weishui bridge will be widely known. Brother Li can''t carry the black pot unknowingly." Merton said to Tian Mou, who had been listening to him for a long time.


    "Thank you, master!" Tian Mou couldn''t help crying. He looked around. There were leaders of the young generation of the Tang Dynasty. Li Yun was also among them, but his fate was the most bumpy. It would be the greatest affirmation of Li Yun if Ink magazine corrected his name.


    Zumingjun frowned and said, "but if you want to correct brother Li''s name in the ink magazine, wouldn''t you take the initiative to expose brother Li''s illness? It will certainly cause an uproar in Chang''an city. How can the people all over the world be willing to let a seriously ill person supervise such a huge project."


    Merton waved his hand and said confidently, "don''t worry, I will arrange everything naturally. I still need brother Zu''s help at that time."


    Zu Mingjun solemnly said, "Zu will do whatever he can."

 Chapter 1012

    The next day, a special issue of Ink magazine was issued in Chang''an City, which immediately caused a sensation in Chang''an city. The front page of the special issue of Ink magazine was the newly formed Weishui bridge and a young man in a wheelchair.


    For these two paintings, Tian Mou spent a lot of effort, specially invited the most exquisite Mohist purple clothes, and carved them into plates overnight and printed them.


    After three years of precipitation, the painters in purple have become more perfect. A few simple strokes make Li Yun and the Weishui bridge very vivid, which is hard to forget at a glance.


    "The Weishui bridge will be completed in one year! And the Mohist chief engineer who supervised the construction of the Weishui bridge has such a strange disease!"


    "This is not Mohism, but the Xiangfu family of Mohism. It is said that in order to build the Weishui bridge, the Xiangfu family has damaged many people. Now even the chief engineer has taken it in."


    "After Li Chun, Li Yun thought that I had seen him at the ink art exhibition. He was almost the same age as the Mohist son. He had such a good time, but he had such an experience."


    "It''s said that Li Yun dived into the bottom of the river many times in order to repair the bridge, and finally got the same diving sickness as the Pearl picking girl in the South China Sea. It''s really a pity."


    "Although I''m sorry, it''s the Weishui bridge. Is it appropriate to give it to a paralyzed patient?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an City talked about it one after another, including those who regretted, sympathized, admired, doubted and opposed.


    For a while, the Weishui bridge, which was about to be completed, and a chief engineer paralyzed in a wheelchair became a hot topic in Chang''an city. By the way, the gratitude and resentment of the three veins of Mohism were gossip again.


    In the work department, the head of the work department stood respectfully in front of Zhang Liang, the Minister of the work department, with ink magazine. Zhang Liang looked at the report on the ink magazine and frowned: "it seems that the ink family has been dormant for three years and has been unwilling to be lonely."


    "Lord Shangshu said that this is the pen of Mohist school?" the head of the Ministry of work whispered.


    "That''s natural. Although Li Yun, who is in the same vein of Xiangfu''s family, is amazing and talented, he works cautiously and steadily, which has always hidden his illness. The Mo family''s behavior is unpredictable. Li Yun''s illness is in line with the Mo family''s behavior style." Zhang liangning said.


    "So, the Mohists want to rely on public opinion to keep Li Yun''s position as chief engineer." the head of the work department said anxiously. If Li Yun keeps his position as chief engineer, his plan will be destroyed.


    In fact, he had already discovered Li Yun''s condition. However, before, Li Yun knew the construction of the Weishui bridge like the back of his hand. Even if he forcibly took over, he could not complete it. On the contrary, he had to take responsibility for bad things. Now that the main project of the Weishui bridge has been roughly completed, he actively ran on Li Yun and was ready to pick peaches. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by Mohism.


    "What about public opinion? It''s the gateway to the north of Chang''an city. How can you appoint a person who is seriously ill? Moreover, ink magazine also admitted that Li Yun''s disease has no good medicine. He can only rest and can hardly go on the bridge again. How can he supervise the construction of Weishui bridge?" Zhang Liang snorted coldly.


    What really makes Zhang Liang care about Weishui bridge is the huge amount of steel needed for its construction. Now the main works of Weishui bridge have been completed, and the most advanced third-generation steel of Mojia village is used, but the steel used to fill the bridge deck is not. Although the effect of the second-generation steel produced by other workshops is poor, it is also available. In this way, The Ministry of works, which controls the procurement right of Weishui bridge, will have great interests.


    "Now that the Mohists have exposed their own ugliness, don''t blame the Ministry of work. Immediately write to your majesty and request to replace the chief engineer of Weishui bridge." Zhang Liang waved his big hand.


    "Yes, sir!" the head of the Ministry bowed.


    At the same time, when the Ministry of industry impeached Li Yun, Merton was also facing a great enemy and was ready, because today was the day he was going to send his daughter Mosha to kindergarten.


    "How about not going to kindergarten, sobbing!" a series of sobs came into Merton''s ears, making Merton look up to the sky and look helpless.


    "Father, don''t you persuade mother!" Martha tried to break away from Princess Changle''s arms and asked her father for help. Today is her kindergarten day. She hasn''t cried yet, but Princess Changle hugged her with tears.


    "You are the royal highness of the princess, if you let people see how bad it is," advises Merton.


    Princess Changle''s eyes were red and said, "so what? For three years, Martha accompanied her day and night. Now she suddenly wants to separate. How can she be willing to be a mother?"


    "Darling, when I finish school, I''ll go home with you." Martha advised mildly.


    Seeing that other children had entered school, Merton and Martha comforted Princess Changle and walked hand in hand to the gate of the kindergarten.


    "Young master, madam, little lady!" Ziyi and Gongsun Yue saw Merton coming, and their eyes brightened and hurried to meet them.


    In three years, Ziyi has grown up and become more and more generous. Gong Sunyue often deals with children, which is a bit of maternal love and has a different charm.


    "Auntie purple, Auntie Gongsun!" said Martha.


    Merton looked at everything in the kindergarten with satisfaction and nodded: "you''ve done well in the past three years!"


    Ziyi and his wife have set up a kindergarten in Mojia village, which is very successful. After three years of growth, the concept of kindergarten has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As long as children over the age of three in Mojia village choose to go to kindergarten, and the children taught in kindergarten are very different from those raised at home, which makes early childhood education very popular.


    The kindergartens run by Ziyi and Gongsun Yue are specially opened in the square city where the Mo mansion is located. Most of them are Dagui officials. Once they are opened, their students will naturally flow in.


    "Thank you for your affirmation," said Ziyi with a smile.


    "Well, you''ll have Merca later," Merton waved.


    Gongsun Yue said proudly, "don''t worry, young master!"


    The purpose of their kindergarten is to enter the school for today''s Mosha, which will naturally be perfect.


    "Princess Jinsha is really smart and sensible. She''s no better than the boy in my family. She''s crying all the time!" after sending Martha to school, a group of neighbors greeted Merton.


    "It''s the same when you''re just in school. After a few days, the children will get familiar with it." Merton responded one by one.


    After Merton had gone a long way, many women complained to their husbands, "it''s all your fault. The child is only three years old. What school is he going to?"


    The husband snorted coldly: "A woman''s hair is long and her knowledge is short. You didn''t see that mojiazi and the eldest princess sent their daughter. With the character of mojiazi''s doting on her daughter, it''s not good to go to kindergarten. Besides, even if we find a playmate for the child, it''s good for the child to get familiar with Princess Jinsha in the future. If our son and Princess Jinsha grow up ¡­¡£¡±


    The lady''s eyes lit up immediately. She was no longer opposed to entering school. She suddenly remembered her husband''s look at Gongsun Yue. She couldn''t help humming, "I''ll pick up the children in the future. You don''t have to come in the future!"


    On the carriage of the Mohist family, Princess Changle said the same thing.


    "Ah!" Morton said in surprise.


    "You didn''t look at you? Hum!" Princess Changle said displeased.


    Merton couldn''t help smiling bitterly. He didn''t expect that in future generations, the woman didn''t allow her husband to pick up the children would happen to him.


    "Tiean, turn around and go to the palace!" Merton suddenly ordered.


    "Yes, young master!" said Tie''an.


    Princess Changle was surprised and said, "why go to the palace?"


    "Today is the day when the Ministry of industry impeached Li Yun. Naturally, I want to help him. It''s just that today, Mosha goes to school and faces the saint for her husband. It''s beautiful for you to go to the palace to accompany the queen." Merton said with a smile.


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look, but had to admit that without children around, the whole person was really a lot easier.


    The carriage went all the way and soon reached the palace. Merton stepped into the imperial city and breathed a long sigh of relief.


    "Datang, I''m Merton back!" Merton said proudly in his heart.

 Chapter 1013

    In the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gather. Now the Tang Dynasty has become more and more prosperous, which can be described as good news. These three years can be said to be the most comfortable three years for Li Shimin.


    This made him relaxed, but he always felt that something was missing. His eyes involuntarily floated towards Merton at the end. However, Merton was silent, which made Li Shimin a little disappointed and miss the constantly tossing Mozi. At that time, although he loved and hated the constantly tossing Mozi, he had a very full life.


    "Your Highness Hui, now the brick road from the South Bank of Hankou Yangtze River to Lingnan has been completed. So far, the whole line has been completed from Taiyuan in the north to Lingnan in the south. Please check it!" his highness Tai Chi, Zhang Liang, Minister of the Ministry of work, said proudly.


    These three years are also the most shining three years of the Ministry of industry. With the improvement of the finance of the Tang Dynasty, the money allocated to the Ministry of industry has also increased. With the support of a large amount of money, brick roads have been paved, and various projects have been approved one after another. The achievements of the Ministry of industry are extremely gratifying. Naturally, Zhang Liang, as the Minister of the Ministry of industry, has also increased and his status is detached, He has become a hot man in the court and has been praised by Li Shimin many times.


    Moreover, the North-South brick road is unblocked, and it forms a cross shaped traffic with the Longhai line in Datang. It can be said that it plays a general role as a catalyst. In an instant, Datang traffic is unblocked and business travel is continuous. It can be expected that Datang''s tax will rise again this year.


    "Congratulations, your majesty! So far, the Tang Dynasty is connected from north to south, convenient from east to west, and one family in the world. It is really a scene of prosperity!" Xiao Yu, Duke of the state of song, said with a happy face.


    The construction of the North-South brick road has many benefits for Jiangnan. In the past three years, relying on its superior natural conditions, the South has actively promoted the development of Jiangnan, transporting fruits in summer and vegetables in winter, coupled with the promotion of rice in Johor and the popularization of water conservancy workshops, Jiangnan has made a lot of profits in recent years, developed with each passing day, and taxes have increased sharply year after year, It can be said without hesitation that almost all the prospects for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River envisaged by Merton have been realized.


    This made Xiao Yu, the Duke of the state of song, more important in the court, and became the pursuit of Jiangnan aristocratic family, which was not inferior to Zhang Liang. As for other courtiers, they were much inferior to the other two. In addition, Merton''s three-year dormancy made them like the sun in the sky.


    "Well, thanks to the joint efforts of all the ministers, our Tang Dynasty is like this. Now the world is peaceful and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. I thank you for your love for the people all over the world." Li Shimin said with elation. The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is obvious to all. Li Shimin naturally sees it in his eyes, but he is very proud. Unfortunately, Li Yuan has passed away, Otherwise, it must be seen by my father.


    "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. This is the merit of your Majesty''s wise leadership!" the ministers congratulated one after another. For a moment, the whole court was in harmony.


    "Tell your majesty, I have one more thing I want your majesty to judge." Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, bowed again.


    "Oh! Aiqing, just say it!" Li Shimin felt happy and waved his big hand.


    "Around Chang''an City, there is also a super project comparable to the North-South brick road, that is, the Weishui bridge. Weishui bridge is the northern gateway of Chang''an city. It has an irreplaceable position, costs a lot of money, and can''t be careless. However, heaven envies talents. Li Yunshen, the chief Engineer of Weishui bridge, is seriously ill. It''s really not suitable to shoulder this heavy responsibility. Please choose another talent." in the court, Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of works, bowed and took out a stack of ink magazines and distributed them to all officials.


    "Chief engineer Li Yun."


    "After Li Chun, Li Yun!"


    "Li Yun, a descendant of the Mohist family''s Xiangfu family."


    The eyes of the courtiers flashed. They couldn''t help sighing when they looked at the report in the ink magazine. Such a young hero suddenly suffered from this strange disease. It''s really jealous of talents.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but blink in his eyes. He suddenly remembered that the energetic young man four years ago coincided with the thin man in a wheelchair in Ink magazine, and couldn''t help sighing slightly.


    "Did Li Yun ever play his resignation?" Li Shimin suddenly asked.


    Zhang Liang was stunned and said, "back to your majesty, Li Yun didn''t resign. However, it is said that Li Yun has been bad at walking and needs to take a wheelchair to move. I''m afraid it''s not suitable for the general manager to build the Weishui bridge."


    When Zhang Liang finished, all the officials nodded. If a bridge building master could not visit the bridge deck in person, wouldn''t it be like scratching his boots and watching fire from the shore? If there were any mistakes and the Weishui bridge fell short, it would be a heavy loss for Datang. After all, the importance of Weishui bridge is well known.


    "Weishui bridge is the northern throat of Chang''an city. You need to be careful. I think it''s better to choose talents." the head of the Ministry of work is poor.


    "Your Majesty, it''s taboo to change generals a while ago! Although chief engineer Li is seriously ill, he has not stopped building the Weishui bridge, not to mention that the reason why chief engineer Li got this strange disease is also due to the repair of the bridge. If he is replaced at the moment, it is still unknown whether he can find a suitable candidate, which will make the meritorious officials feel cold!" another minister pointed to Mo magazine and retorted, After all, Li Yun did a good job in the past four years, which made the Weishui bridge complete smoothly. Therefore, he was suffering from a strange disease and still insisted on building the bridge, which made many ministers feel sympathy.


    Li Shimin had a headache. The Weishui bridge is a new type of bridge, which has never been tried before. The design drawings and construction methods are all based on the bridge repair skills of Xiangfu. If you change people rashly, I''m afraid there is really no suitable candidate. Moreover, he also saw Li Yun''s sacrifice for the Weishui bridge. It can be said that he devoted all his efforts to the Weishui bridge. If you replace them rashly, For Li Yun, it is indeed a cruel thing.


    "The Weishui bridge involves a great deal of personal affairs. I believe Li Jiangzuo can understand it. As for the replacement candidate, it is more simple. Since the construction of the Weishui bridge, our work department has always paid attention to it, and the new chief construction supervision work department can certainly choose the right candidate." Lang Shengdao, the head of the work department.


    "In my opinion, you see that the Weishui bridge is about to be completed. You want to pick peaches!" suddenly a voice appeared in the hall.


    People were stunned and turned their heads one after another, but they found that it was Merton who had been silent for three years. In the past three years, although Merton went to court many times, he didn''t say a word more. Chaotang has long been used to it.


    The head of the Ministry of work had long known that Merton would come out to stop it. He responded freely and said, "don''t talk about it. I''m going to do it for the public. I believe chief engineer Li will understand and don''t want to waste his efforts."


    Merton nodded and said, "chief engineer Li has devoted all his efforts to the Weishui bridge. Naturally, he is not willing to pay for his efforts."


    The head of the Ministry of work couldn''t help smiling proudly. Mojiazi was the architect of the Weishui bridge. Even he said so. Didn''t he have abandoned Li Yun, while Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, frowned. With his understanding of mojiazi, he knew that giving up so easily was not the style of mojiazi.


    Sure enough, Merton continued, "so chief engineer Li decided to continue to build the Weishui bridge until it was completed."


    "Continue to build!" all the ministers were in an uproar. They should know that Li Yun was paralyzed and couldn''t even walk. Although they admired Li Yun''s efforts, they knew that it was inappropriate for Li Yun to continue to build the Weishui bridge.


    "Mohou''s words are too arrogant. Are you deceiving me? No one can build the Weishui bridge except Li Yun." the head of the Ministry of work was furious.


    Merton naturally nodded and said, "indeed, I''m afraid no one in the whole Tang Dynasty can repair the Weishui bridge except Li Yun. Even Mo will repair it himself. I''m afraid it will take at least two years to know the Weishui bridge. As for others, either Mo talks big, or the drawings of the Weishui bridge are put in front of the masters of the Ministry of industry, they can''t understand."


    In an instant, everyone in the Ministry of work suddenly turned black. Merton''s words can be said to belittle them. However, they had nothing to say. After all, what Merton said is the truth.


    Zhang Liang had to take the line to speak for the work department and said, "naturally, we know that chief engineer Li is the best candidate. However, chief engineer Li is disabled, bad in practice, and can''t even climb the bridge with or without medicine. How to preside over the bridge repair."


    Merton smiled and said: "It''s not difficult. In the southeast of the Weishui bridge, there is a three storey building, which is the headquarters of the Weishui bridge. The Mojia village will urgently transform it into five floors, so that chief engineer Li can live in the top floor. Coupled with the observation platform specially prepared by the Mojia, the ordinary telescope is enough to have a panoramic view of the whole Weishui bridge, even if chief engineer Li stays at home, You can also know the Weishui bridge like the back of your hand. "


    "If you want to be poor for thousands of miles, go to a higher level!" the ministers involuntarily emerged Merton''s poem in their hearts, but they didn''t expect that the mojiazi would use this poem incisively and vividly here. The telescope of the star viewing platform can observe the moon, and it''s a little overqualified to watch the Weishui bridge.


    Zhang Liang couldn''t help humming: "it''s ridiculous. Is it a climb to build the bridge? Chief engineer Li can see it clearly. How can the workers far away on the bridge hear how to supervise the progress of the bridge."


    All the ministers nodded one after another. What Zhang Liang said was very true. Even if Li Yun stood on the fifth floor and looked at it clearly, it would be out of reach. Whether it was delivered or supervised, it would always be a step late, and it was easy to make mistakes.


    Merton had long thought of this strategy and nodded: "so, it needs someone to act as Li Yun''s right arm to replace Li Yun''s supervisor in building the bridge. It happens that there is such a person around Li Yun. He has been involved since the construction of the Weishui bridge, and he has made great contributions. In addition to Li Yun, I''m afraid he is the most familiar with the Weishui bridge."


    "He is the ancestor of mathematics!" Murton said loudly.


    "Zu Mingjun!"


    Everyone nodded. In the report of Ink magazine, Li Yun built the Weishui bridge. Li Yun, who is proficient in parabola, is said to have made great contributions. Both of them are knowledgeable and have their own strengths. They have become a close friend.


    Merton said proudly, "Li Yun is responsible for the design and planning, and then Zu Mingjun is responsible for the communication and supervision. They cooperate with each other and complement each other''s strengths and weaknesses. It is certain that the Weishui bridge can be completed on schedule. This is not a good story of Bo Yazi''s period, which will be handed down for future generations."


    "Boya Ziqi!" the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty moved in his heart. They were all familiar with poetry and books. Naturally, they were very familiar with the story of Boya Ziqi.


    It is said that Boya is good at playing drums and zither and Zhong Ziqi is good at listening. Boya''s goal is to play drums and zither in high mountains. Zhong Ziqi said, "goodness, Emei, if Mount Tai!" and Zhong Ziqi said, "goodness, if the ocean is like a river!" as Boya reads, Zhong Ziqi will get it. When Ziqi dies, Boya says that there is no bosom friend in the world, but he breaks the zither and stops playing drums all his life.


    Boya Ziqi is a bosom friend of each other, which makes many people yearn for it. Now they suddenly find that the affair between Li Yun and Zu Mingjun is not the Boya Ziqi of the contemporary Tang Dynasty.


    The two worked together to build the Weishui bridge. When the bridge was about to be completed, Li Yun was disabled and insisted on building the bridge with a telescope. Zu Mingjun became Li Yun''s tongue and arm. He went to the bridge for Li Yun and supervised the construction. Isn''t such a bosom friend enviable.


    Li Shimin was excited. The Weishui bridge is related to the northern passage of Chang''an city. Naturally, there can be no loss. The sooner it is completed, the more benefits. Now Li Yun and Zu Mingjun cooperate with each other, which can not only give full play to their talents, but also make the Weishui Bridge completed on schedule. Isn''t it both beautiful.


    "More importantly, although the Weishui bridge is a super project that surpasses all the bridges in Datang, it is only a new attempt for the new bridge. In the future, the more magnificent Yellow River Bridge and Yangtze River Bridge need the bridge construction knowledge of chief engineer Li. The so-called step by step does not reach thousands of miles. If chief engineer Li has not completed the small Weishui bridge, he will design and start the construction of the Yellow River Bridge There is no way to talk about the Yangtze River Bridge, "Merton said solemnly.


    Zhang Liang said that the North-South brick road is unblocked is just an empty statement. There are at least two obstacles on the brick road from Taiyuan to Lingnan, that is, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. No matter the goods in the south of the Yangtze River or in the north, once they arrive at the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, they can only use water transportation and ferry goods by boat, but it takes a lot of effort, which adds to the urgency of building the Yellow River and the Yangtze River Bridge.


    In an instant, the whole dynasty was silent. What Merton said was right. Although Weishui bridge is the first bridge in Datang at present, it has more wide and complex rivers than Weishui. For the future, it seems that the magnificent Weishui bridge is really a small project, and there are even more elements to accumulate Bridge construction experience.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "the Weishui bridge is a new attempt of the Datang bridge. It can be said that he crossed the river by touching the stone. Since more than half of Li Yun has passed, it is really a taboo to change generals before the battle. I hope he will not betray my trust and compose a real high mountain and flowing water for me with Zu Mingjun."


    "Thank you for your trust!" Morton said solemnly.


    People looked at Merton with complex eyes and immediately understood that the once sharp Mohist son had come back. Today, his idea was unrestrained, but people couldn''t help but be convinced. What a difficult situation was solved in his hands.


    "This is the real Mohist family. If you don''t sing for three years, you will become a blockbuster." the ministers sighed.


    If Merton knew what everyone was thinking, he would smile and say, "no! It''s Mo''s daughter who has entered school and finally freed her hand."

 Chapter 1014

    After leaving the court hall, Merton''s side became obviously warm. Many ministers looked at Merton with more inexplicable meaning. Xiangfu''s pulse has always been at odds with the Mojia village, but Merton was silent for three years and made an exception for Li Yun, which made people remember the Mojia son in their mind.


    Now three years have passed, but the style of Mozi has not changed. As soon as he made a move, the ministers felt that the former Mozi had come back.


    "Mohou, long princess, please!" just as Merton came down, pound came to Merton with a smile on his face.


    "Farewell, everyone. Changle enters the palace today. Mo will pick her up now." Merton said hello to all the ministers.


    "How can you neglect the invitation of the eldest princess? Marquis Mo will go quickly." all the ministers said one after another.


    Merton and Princess Changle can be described as the husband and wife model of Chang''an city. One is gentle and virtuous. It is also known as the first beauty of Chang''an. One is a leader of hundreds of talented families who is in charge of a unique learning. What''s more, they are enviable. They fall in love with each other, which can be described as a perfect match.


    Under the leadership of pound, Merton came to the legislative palace and met Princess Changle. However, when he saw the bad looks of Li Shimin and empress changsun, he immediately knew that he was pulled out by Princess Changle.


    "You just threw Mosha into school alone, and you''re relaxed." empress changsun looked at Merton and Princess Changle unhappily.


    Martha, the smart and lovely princess of Jinsha, is deeply loved by Li Shimin and empress Chang sun. Every time they see Martha, they love her very much. This time, Merton and Princess Chang Le enter the palace, but they don''t see their granddaughter. They don''t entertain at once.


    Princess Changle suddenly felt empty and couldn''t help touching Merton privately. Merton couldn''t help but smile and explain: "the queen doesn''t know. Early childhood education has been very successful in Mojia village. All children who have attended kindergarten have benefited a lot, which has a lot of advantages over those who have directly entered the school at the age of six."


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "I''m afraid the biggest advantage is that you can let your parents free up their hands! Mosha has just been in school for a day, and you''ll come out and toss around!"


    Li Shimin glared at Merton with hatred. He has been clean for three years. From now on, I''m afraid such a free time has gone forever. I don''t know what''s going on. Li Shimin blamed him, but he couldn''t help but have a little expectation in his heart. Although Merton''s proposal today is empty, it perfectly solves the problem of Weishui bridge.


    Merton''s face immediately flattered and said, "Your Majesty, as a clear lesson, both men and women in the Mojia village work. Carrying out early childhood education can not only liberate parents, work hard, but also make children wise. It is really the best of both worlds."


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "other people''s families know thousands of words at the age of three, recite ancient poems at the age of five, and be familiar with the four books and five classics at the age of seven. It''s good for you. It''s said that Mosha''s going to kindergarten is all about eating, drinking and playing, not even a book."


    Merton explained: "the curriculum taught in the kindergarten is in line with the growth stage of children. It is more important to let Martha have a happy childhood than to cultivate Martha into a child prodigy."


    Li Shimin wanted to say more, but empress Chang sun waved her hand and said, "forget it, Martha has carried too much. It can be regarded as giving her some compensation!"


    You should know that Martha''s fief is a million hectares of desert. It''s her life''s task to turn a million hectares of desert into green space. Although Merton''s support was given in the early stage, it can be expected that Martha''s future life will be entangled with a million hectares of desert.


    "How is the process of Mu Us Desert governance?" Li Shimin staggered the topic.


    "Your Majesty, although there are many difficulties in harnessing the desert, the good thing is that the Mohist method of harnessing the desert is quite effective. The grass grid can not only reduce the wind speed and protect the saplings in the grid, but also firmly maintain the water. In the past two years, Maowusu has had heavy snow. The grass grid has been able to intercept a lot of snow and water, and the success rate of saplings is quite high." Merton said.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. Merton''s method of controlling the desert has also been studied. He knows that the grass grid is the top priority, which can prevent wind and retain water.


    "What about Haloxylon ammodendron and Cistanche deserticola?" the eldest grandson queen said curiously. Everyone knows that the key to governing the Mu Us Desert lies in the magical Haloxylon ammodendron and its parasitic precious medicinal herb Cistanche deserticola. With this income, more herdsmen can be attracted to plant trees in the desert.


    "With the protection of grass squares, the survival rate of Haloxylon ammodendron trees is very high. Now three years have passed, and the first batch of cultivated Cistanche deserticola is about to be harvested. With the income of Cistanche deserticola, I believe the situation of Maowusu is getting better and better." Merton loosened his mouth.


    In these three years, it has been the continuous investment of Mohism, and there is no income at all. If the first batch of Cistanche deserticola is harvested, it can greatly reduce the pressure of Mohism, and let the governance of Maowusu Desert embark on a virtuous circle.


    "The sea has changed! Who could have thought that it could be caused by manpower." Li Shimin sighed.


    "Xunzi said that man can conquer nature. Weichen thought this was quite reasonable. What''s more surprising is that the children of the Mohists once found groundwater in the Maowusu Desert. Unfortunately, the existing well drilling technology can''t successfully dig the well in the desert. However, the Mohists are stepping up their research on this technology. Once they can drill a well in the Maowusu Desert, there will be a lot of precipitation and rich water resources Groundwater, it is not vain that one day the Mu Us desert will be restored to an oasis, "Merton affirmed.


    "This is the best news I''ve heard!" Li Shimin sighed. Harnessing the Mu Us desert can not only reduce the sediment of the Yellow River, but also protect the Great Wall. More importantly, not only does the desert no longer expand, but also adds millions of hectares of grassland out of thin air. What a feat.


    "But I owe this achievement to my granddaughter," Li Shimin said coldly as he looked at Merton.


    Although they didn''t bring Martha, they still had the cheek to rub a meal in the palace. Princess Changle was reluctant to part with Martha in the morning. Now she returned to the palace and had a good time without children. It was a happy time in the palace when she was a girl. It was a large-scale real fragrant scene.


    "Let''s go! I''m afraid I won''t be able to pick up Martha later. Today is her first school, but you promised her to be the first to pick her up." if it weren''t for Merton''s reminder, Princess Changle would still be happy.


    Outside kindergarten.


    Just after school, Martha saw the princess Changle standing in the first row and fell down in her mother''s arms.


    "Is Martha good or not!" Princess Changle asked softly.


    "Martha was obedient and didn''t cry at all. If you don''t believe it, ask aunt purple." Martha said proudly.


    Ziyi said softly on her face, "the little lady did very well. She got little Safflower on the first day."


    Purple clothes boasted about Martha, but his eyes looked around. He didn''t see the young master''s figure. He couldn''t help being disappointed.


    Princess Changle took Mosha, looked at purple clothes and sighed: "if you want to go back to the ink house, you will return to the ink house. Your room is still preserved. If you can go back, I believe Meiniang will be very happy."


    "Meiniang!" Ziyi couldn''t help but feel a move in her heart. She is the best friend with Wu Meiniang in Mo mansion. Wu Meiniang has become more and more busy in recent years. She only goes back to Mojia village during the new year. She hasn''t seen Wu Meiniang for a long time.

 Chapter 1015

    "Elder martial sister!"


    "Elder martial sister!"


    Outside the Mohist shops in Chang''an City, Mohist children respectfully saluted a capable 15-year-old woman in black.


    "Who is this woman? She''s just a girl with yellow hair. She can make so many people salute her." a businessman who had just entered Chang''an City from abroad was surprised to see this scene.


    "Shh! Don''t talk nonsense, don''t look at her age, and she is the eldest martial sister of Mohism, Wu Meiniang." a Chang''an people whispered.


    "Big elder martial sister of Mohism! But she is only about 15 years old. How can she become a big elder martial sister." foreign merchants don''t believe it.


    "At that time, because she was the first disciple of the Mohist school, in the three years since the disappearance of the Mohist school, Meiniang took the place of the Mohist school to walk in Chang''an city. Although she was a woman, she acted very magnanimously. She could be said to be a woman better than a man. She was sincerely convinced by the Mohist children and called her senior sister." Chang''an people sighed.


    "There is such a strange woman in the world. I think that Mojia Zi didn''t leave Mojia village until she was only 15 years old, and Wu Meiniang was afraid that she had walked in Chang''an City for Mojia Zi at the age of 13." the foreign merchants were surprised.


    "That''s natural. In the past three years, the eldest martial sister of Mohism has been a man of the moment in Chang''an city."


    Wu Meiniang didn''t realize that she was surprised and visited by others. In the past three years, she has been questioned too much. Some people questioned her woman''s identity. No one believed that the Mexican family sincerely trained a woman as a successor. In the end, everyone dropped their glasses. The Mexican family completely delegated power to Wu Meiniang, Really train her as a successor.


    Later, some people questioned her ability and her age. Finally, Wu Meiniang confirmed herself one by one. She wanted to prove to the world that it was the loss of the Wu family that she was driven out of the house by the Wu family. She wanted to prove to the world that she was not a cold-blooded and ruthless son Qian family, but a dignified, loving and righteous senior sister of the Mohist school.


    Wu Meiniang said in a loud voice, "do a good job. The Mohists can''t treat you badly!"


    "Thank you for your advice, elder martial sister!" a group of Mohist children said enthusiastically in their eyes.


    Wu Meiniang nodded slightly and looked at the people. They were not surprised. No one dared to look directly into the clear eyes that could see through the hearts of the people.


    "What a big gas field!"


    Until Wu Meiniang left, everyone was relieved. Who could have thought that they were frightened by a 15-year-old girl.


    "Drive!"


    As the carriage stopped in front of the Mo mansion, Wu Meiniang, who was dressed in ink, got off the bus and said, "Mei Niang is back!" when Fu Bo saw Wu Meiniang coming back, he said in a loud voice.


    "Hello, uncle!" Wu Meiniang said cheerfully.


    "Mei Niang, let''s try the new ink clothes designed by Aunt Xu!" aunt Xu looked enthusiastic and took Mei Niang''s hand. Soon, the great elder martial sister of Mohism became a graceful Mohist woman.


    "Thank you, aunt Xu!"


    For Aunt Xu, who tries to make herself a lady of the family, Wu Meiniang naturally appreciates her kindness.


    "OK, OK! If you go out in this suit, you will surely fascinate a talent in Chang''an city. No one dares to enter you three feet like now." aunt Xu looked at the very decent Wu Meiniang and nodded with satisfaction. She watched Wu Meiniang grow up and treated her as her own daughter.


    "It''s just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, and there''s no one who can get into my eyes." Wu Meiniang proudly said that the defense between men and women in the Mohist school is not strict. In addition, Merton is a firm supporter of free love. In addition, Wu Meiniang is still young and doesn''t interfere too much. Although there are many proposed marriages, Merton blocked them one by one.


    Aunt Xu could not help sighing. It is not a good thing that women are too excellent. In addition, the monogamous marriage conditions of Mohist women have added a lot of difficulties.


    "Master, little younger martial sister!" after leaving aunt Xu, Wu Meiniang came to Merton''s study and saw her happy father and daughter. She couldn''t help showing a happy smile. Such a warm environment never existed in her memory. Even when her father Samurai Yu was alive, she only loved Wu Yuanqing and Wu yuanshuang and never gave Wu Meiniang much father''s love.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang coming back, nodded and said to Martha, "go to the door first. Your eldest martial sister and I have something else to do."


    Martha nodded, greeted Wu Meiniang, and played with herself.


    "Master, the matter has been found out. There is no problem with other accounts, but the accounts in Jiangnan have been delayed." Wu Meiniang said solemnly.


    "Jiangnan!" Merton frowned. Jiangnan is now the largest source of income of Mohism and the place where Mohism is carried forward. Now he has vaguely felt that Jiangnan has gradually lost control.


    This is reflected in the dispute over interests and ideas. Mohism took the lead in the layout of the south of the Yangtze River. Coupled with the advanced ink technology in its hands, it stimulated the exchanges between the north and the south of the Yangtze River and obtained a lot of benefits. Now the transportation of fruits and vegetables in the south depends on the Mohist refrigerated carriage.


    However, the extremely cheap vegetables and fruits in the South were transported to the north by the Mohist carriage, and their value doubled. Naturally, the Jiangnan aristocratic family was dissatisfied. They thought that these interests should belong to their Jiangnan land, but now they were seized by the Mohist family. Provoked by the Jiangnan aristocratic family, even the vegetable farmers and fruit farmers were dissatisfied with the Mohist family, or they united to take the opportunity to raise the price, Or shoddy, let Mojia village baimeng suffer a lot of losses.


    Wu Meiniang said angrily, "these people in the south of the Yangtze River are really white eyed wolves. At the beginning, the south of the Yangtze River was in trouble, but the Mohist school made every effort to support the south of the Yangtze River, providing seeds, technology, opening up the market and North-South transportation. Only then can there be today in the south of the Yangtze River. The people in the south of the Yangtze River have just had a good day for two days, and they want to tear down the river bridge."


    Merton shook his head and sighed: "Most of the people in the world are just scholars, peasants and businessmen. Most of their official careers are controlled by aristocratic families and seek their own interests with their power. Driven by money, many businessmen run for profits and forget their righteousness. Most farmers are illiterate, have no capital, no capital and no vision. They are very easy to be encouraged by aristocratic families and lured by small profits. This is the limitation of farmers."


    Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "in master''s words, the purchase price of Mohism in Jiangnan is extremely fair, and young and old people are innocent. They have never defaulted on the money of a farmer. The income of the people in Jiangnan is far more than three years ago, but these people are still not popular."


    "This is the purpose of promoting education in Mojia village for teachers. Workers are organized and disciplined. If they have more culture and ink skills, they can become the mainstay of the world step by step. This is the future road of Mojia." Merton nodded.


    "What master said is very true!" Wu Meiniang couldn''t help feeling surging, as if she saw the grand occasion of the rise of Mohism in the future, and couldn''t help feeling proud.


    Merton nodded and said, "these four workers are the foundation for the future prosperity of Mohism. You senior sister should set a good example!"


    "Master, don''t worry!" after being fooled by Merton, Wu Meiniang immediately promised to sit on the benchmark of four workers.

 Chapter 1016

    With the emergency construction of Mojia village, the three floors next to the Weishui bridge increased by two floors in the shortest time. With the installation of a huge telescope, the new headquarters of the Weishui bridge was officially established.


    The figure who once insisted on repairing the bridge with a wheelchair has disappeared. Instead, the long telescope on the fifth floor and Zu Mingjun, who supervised the work on behalf of him, have been replaced.


    "High mountains and flowing water!"


    "Bo Ya Zi period!"


    "It''s rare to have a confidant in life!"


    With the orderly resumption of the construction of the Weishui bridge, the story of Li Yun, a member of the Xiangfu family, and Zu Mingjun, a member of the mathematics family, as close friends with each other was widely spread in the Tang Dynasty.


    One is jealous of talents, suffering from a strange disease, but adhering to the dream of Xiangfu''s one pulse. The other is an elite in one pulse of mathematics and the founder of parabola. His knowledge of mathematics is a great contribution to the construction of Weishui bridge. After Li Yun''s disadvantageous walk, he resolutely provoked the girder.


    "Brother Li, in my opinion, the load-bearing here should not be reinforced. It''s enough to bear the load. You can trust my younger brother. I''ll never make a mistake with my younger brother''s arithmetic." Zu Mingjun pointed to the drawing in front of him and said confidently. When he was doing arithmetic, he thought no one was better than him.


    However, Li Yun in the wheelchair shook his head slightly and said, "brother Zu''s calculation is naturally trustworthy to Li. However, brother Zu only calculated the load-bearing, water flow, bridge sinking and other factors, but forgot that there is another factor that has a great impact on the bridge, that is, wind!"


    "Wind!" Zu Mingjun frowned. "A little wind can also affect such a bridge."


    "A little wind!" Li Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Zu has never been to the seaside. Every summer and autumn, there will be hurricanes in the coastal areas, which often destroy houses. Although the wind in Guanzhong is small, tornadoes and short-term super strong winds cannot be ruled out. Once the strong wind blows over the bridge deck, wind vortices will form above and below the bridge deck, just like underwater undercurrent vortices."


    Zu Mingjun frowned and said, "although the wind is strong, it should not be possible to blow down such a heavy bridge! For thousands of years, I have only heard of the case that the flood washed down the bridge, and I have never heard of the case that the wind blew down the bridge."


    Li Yun said with a wry smile: "That''s because bridges for thousands of years have been arch bridges, which rely on their own arch support weight. Weishui bridge is the leading suspension bridge. Half of its weight needs thick suspension support. It doesn''t have the gravity of stone arch bridge. Once the strong wind continues to blow, it forms the resonance between wind and bridge deck. Li calls it vortex vibration, which will cause bridge deck vibration together Bumpy, light is the bridge deck shaking, heavy, the bridge is destroyed and people die. "


    Li Yun finished and blew hard at the model of the Weishui bridge next to him. Sure enough, the bridge deck of the model shook in the wind.


    "Resonance!" Zu Mingjun thought. He naturally knew resonance. This was the first proposal of Mohist school, but it has been recognized by hundreds of schools.


    "The knowledge of Mohism really deserves its reputation, and brother Li is admired by zumou!" zumingjun sighed.


    Li Yun sun ran said: "it''s just a fluke. If brother Mo didn''t know his cause this time and realized some truth about water pressure and air pressure, I''m afraid it would be difficult for Li to melt through the bridge building today."


    "Congratulations to brother Li, who has finally become a family." Zu Mingjun congratulated.


    "Thank you for your help," Li Yun said solemnly. They looked at each other and laughed at the same time. They immediately felt that they had this confidant and had no regrets in this life.


    Then, one incarnated as head and eyes, the other incarnated as hands and feet. Sometimes they blushed for academic quarrels and cooperated sincerely for the construction of the bridge.


    It is recognized by people all over the world that it is difficult to find a confidant. Otherwise, the story of high mountains and flowing water is widely spread. Now there is a Tang dynasty like Boya Ziqi in front of people. Moreover, the legendary experience of Li Yun and Zu Mingjun is not inferior to Boya Ziqi''s story, and the Weishui bridge is no worse than high mountains and flowing water.


    More people in Chang''an do not hesitate to travel long distances to see the Weishui bridge under construction by the Weishui river. When they see the majestic bridge, they are all amazed, and when they see the five storey tall building next to the Weishui bridge, they are all awed.


    For a while, the fame of the Mohist Xiangfu family was once again famous in the Tang Dynasty after a thousand years.


    South of the Yangtze River.


    Yang Siqi was dressed in ink and followed by many disciples behind him. Among the three veins of Mohism, the village of Xiangli family was at the height of the sun. The vein of Xiangfu family was famous all over the world because of the Weishui bridge, but he was the only one left to support dengling family.


    In order to make the one vein of dengling family flourish and not far from the other two veins, Yang Siqi began to recruit disciples. For a while, the one vein of dengling family had unlimited scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, with a large number of disciples.


    "Shifu is really powerful. He can solve such a difficult problem for Jiangnan as soon as he makes a move." Deng long, the eldest disciple of the dengling family, flattered. Deng long is the son of the landlords of the common people in Jiangnan and likes ink technology very much. At the beginning of the Jiangnan development, he took the initiative to worship Yang Siqi as a disciple and become the eldest disciple of the dengling family.


    Yang Siqi said proudly: "when it comes to bridge repair, Xiangfu''s line is the first in the world. When it comes to mechanical technology, Mojia village is unique in the world. When it comes to mechanism technology, I''ve never served anyone, even the public loser who built the silver Treasury in the Tang Dynasty."


    "With the master here, I''m sure that Deng Ling''s family will prosper." said Lang Sheng, Deng long and other children.


    "That''s natural. The three veins of Mohism have been equal for thousands of years. How can one of Deng Ling''s veins make the other two more beautiful than the others." Yang Siqi was full of pride.


    "Deng Ling''s pulse has been inherited for thousands of years. It''s natural and extraordinary. At the moment, there are many gaps between Deng Ling''s pulse and the other two pulses. Now there is an opportunity to make Deng Ling''s pulse surpass the other two pulses in one fell swoop. I wonder if Shifu is interested." second disciple Xiao Dengkui solemnly said.


    "I''m too anxious to surpass the other two veins in one fell swoop, younger martial brother. Now Xiangli''s vein has the giant Mojia village and the talent of Mojia Zi. Xiangfu''s vein presides over the Weishui bridge. After Li Chun, Li Yun became famous all over the world, while Deng Ling''s vein depends on the support of master. We haven''t graduated yet. Why should we surpass the other two veins?" Deng long frowned.


    He was a landlord of the common people and had an underground position in the south of the Yangtze River. Xiao Dengkui was a member of the Xiao family in the south of the Yangtze River. They often argued because of their different views.


    Xiao Dengkui sneered and said, "elder martial brother, younger martial brother, don''t talk nonsense. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If I miss it, I will regret my whole life and have no future."


    "Once in a lifetime? Just talk!" Yang Siqi said in his heart.


    "That''s why the dengling family replaced the Mojia village and led the development of the south of the Yangtze River." Xiao Dengkui said surprisingly.

 Chapter 1017

    "Leading the development of Jiangnan!"


    Suddenly, the whole dengling family could not help breathing. What a grand scene the great development of the south of the Yangtze River was. In three years, the power of the great development of the south of the Yangtze River had initially appeared. All the original ideas of the Mohist School for the great development of the south of the Yangtze River had come true, and the development of the south of the Yangtze River had developed rapidly,


    They are located in the south of the Yangtze River. They can see and clearly feel the rapid changes in the south of the Yangtze River. Anyone knows the huge benefits of the large-scale development of the south of the Yangtze River.


    "How is this possible? Let alone whether the Mojia village is willing or not, how can the Jiangnan aristocratic family be willing to abandon the Mojia village and choose our dengling family." Deng long dared not believe.


    "Elder martial brother, I think you concentrate on ink skills, but never pay attention to current affairs. Don''t you find that the whole Jiangnan has been secretly moving? The Mohist village is too greedy, which has provoked public anger, people''s dissatisfaction, aristocratic families'' exclusion and businessmen''s resentment." Xiao Dengkui waved his big hand.


    Deng long immediately became angry and said, "this is ungrateful. Three years ago, how poor Jiangnan was. If Mohist village had not provided seeds, technology and treatment of schistosomiasis, how could Jiangnan come today? Now Jiangnan is booming and schistosomiasis has been controlled. You are ready to cross the river and tear down the bridge?"


    "Just because the Mohist school made efforts, can the Mohist school take away the big head and leave it for us to drink?" Xiao Dengkui sneered.


    Deng long said sarcastically, "to put it bluntly, it''s not for the sake of interests. If the Mohist family has invested, it will naturally have a corresponding return. There is no one to say anything about the benefits of Jiangnan. I''m afraid some people are jealous of the benefits of Mohist village now."


    Xiao Dengkui made no secret: "the Mohist family once said that there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests. The same is true among aristocratic families. The dividends of the great development of Jiangnan are enjoyed by the people in Jiangnan, rather than supporting the Mohist village. Otherwise, we would rather have a chicken flying egg than anyone else."


    Deng long sneered: "in my opinion, Jiangnan aristocratic families enjoy it! How can ordinary people compete with aristocratic families, and you are not willing to give up the dividends of Jiangnan development, otherwise you will not encourage Deng Ling to stand on their own."


    Xiao Dengkui solemnly saluted Yang Siqi and said, "master, there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests. This is the case between countries, aristocratic families, and hundreds of families. This is a great opportunity for the development and growth of our dengling family. Even one day, our dengling family will take charge of the Mohist school."


    Yang Siqi couldn''t help breathing. He always had a dream that he would become a real Mohist giant. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have gone to Chang''an city to compete with Mohist giant.


    Now, although no one claims to be a giant of Mohism, everyone knows that Mohism is indeed dominated by Mohism. The reason why Xiangfu''s pulse has such momentum is not the Weishui bridge conceived by Mohism.


    Although the dengling family has a good momentum of development today, everyone knows that if the Mohists had not ignored their past grievances and let Yang Siqi display his ink skills in Jiangnan instead of the Mohist village, Yang Siqi would still be alone.


    "Don''t you mind? I''m a member of the dengling family, but I have today only by the Mohist school. Now we suddenly want to be ungrateful and want to replace the Mohist village to lead the development of the south of the Yangtze River. If it is spread, I''m afraid it will be ridiculed by people all over the world." Deng long said angrily.


    Many Mohist children of Deng Ling''s family nodded one after another. Mohist philosophy is the most fair and attaches great importance to faithfulness. Naturally, there is a conflict to replace the heart of Mohist village.


    Xiao Dengkui retorted: "our dengling lineage originally originated in the Warring States and Chu States, and our roots are basically in the south of the Yangtze River. This south of the Yangtze River should have been the place of great prosperity of our dengling lineage. It was just a step ahead of the Mohist school, but now it''s just returning to its original owner!"


    "It''s a joke to return the things to their original owners. My dengling family was indeed born in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the great development of the south of the Yangtze River was put forward by Mohists. It can''t be denied that it would be extremely shameful for us to steal the achievements of Mohists." Deng Longran said.


    "What is stealing? The people in the south of the Yangtze River don''t welcome the Mojia village, and we didn''t drive the Mojia village away. Once the Mojia village leaves, the south of the Yangtze River will naturally be in the bag of Deng Ling''s family. If we don''t take it, we will be punished by heaven." Xiao Dengkui continued to encourage.


    "In my opinion, it''s not that the people in Jiangnan don''t welcome the Mojia village, but that the aristocratic families in Jiangnan don''t welcome the Mojia village! They want to rob the interests of the Mojia village. But they are worried that the development of Jiangnan will fall short after the Mojia village leaves, so they can find my dengling family!" Yang Siqi said calmly.


    Xiao Dengkui was embarrassed and said, "it''s not all the same, but the great development of the south of the Yangtze River depends on the efforts of the master alone, which the master deserves."


    Yang Siqi said faintly, "the Mohist school has just revived and can''t stand internal strife at all, so I want the dengling family to attack the Mohist village. I advise the Jiangnan aristocratic family to save this heart! The dengling family can''t do anything to destroy the revival of the Mohist school."


    "However, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, Deng Ling!" Xiao Dengkui continued to advise.


    Yang Siqi continued: "as a teacher, I didn''t give up this opportunity. When the Jiangnan aristocratic family forced the Mojia village to withdraw from Jiangnan, the dengling family can continue to provide ink skills for Jiangnan."


    "That''s great!" said Xiao Dengkui in surprise.


    "But there are several conditions for being a teacher," Yang Siqi said.


    Xiao Dengkui patted his chest and said, "master, it doesn''t hurt to say."


    First, this matter should not have the slightest connection with the dengling family. The Jiangnan aristocratic family should not take advantage of the gratitude and resentment between the Mohist village and the dengling family. " Yang Siqi said positively.


    "It''s easy to do. If master has any conditions, just say it. Disciple will certainly convey it together." Xiao Dengkui gritted his teeth.


    "Second, we can''t treat the Mojia village badly. After all, the Mojia son is kind to the dengling family. This time, the Mojia village withdraws from Jiangnan, and its own interests can''t be damaged. Otherwise, Jiangnan will lose both the Mojia village and the dengling family." Yang Siqi said firmly.


    Xiao Dengkui''s face turned black. If the two veins of Mohism left one after another, the so-called Jiangnan development will become a joke.


    "Third, as a teacher, there is only one defeat in his life, that is, he lost in the hands of Mohists. Deng Ling''s one pulse can only ensure the smooth operation of the existing ink technology. As for the ink technology of Mohists in the future, he may not be sure to win. This needs to be considered clearly in Jiangnan. Once the Mohist village is forced away, he will get no more than immediate benefits, but will lose the long-term benefits of Jiangnan." Yang Siqi said frankly. When it comes to ink skills, he feels inferior to the Mohists. This should be explained in advance. Otherwise, the Jiangnan aristocratic family will not blame him for the backward development of Jiangnan in the future.


    "Master, why should we exalt the prestige of the Mohist School and destroy our ambition?" Xiao Dengkui frowned.


    Yang Siqi waved his big hand and said, "there is no need to say more about this. You just need to convey it."


    "Yes, I understand!" Xiao Dengkui nodded solemnly and turned away.


    After Xiao Dengkui left, Deng long frowned and said, "master, is it too unkind for us to help the tyranny?"


    Yang Siqi shook his head and said, "the aristocratic family is greedy and is destined to break with the Mohist village. You and I can''t control it. The Mohist family helps the dengling family, hoping to learn the lessons of the encirclement and suppression of the five surnames and seven looks. Now it''s not surprising. The Jiangnan aristocratic family is indeed a raccoon. I believe the Mohist can understand it."


    Soon, conflicts with Mohist villages broke out in all parts of Jiangnan. The conflicts between land renting farmers Zhinv in Songjiang Prefecture in the East, fruit farmers in Lingnan in the south, and workshops and Mohist products in all parts of Jiangnan broke out almost at the same time.


    The layout of Mojia village in the south of the Yangtze River suddenly fell into a dilemma and was almost squeezed out of the south of the Yangtze River. For a moment, the world sighed: "those who guard the Lu are not inside."

 Chapter 1018

    "Those who guard the Lu are not inside! This remark should be traced back to the gratitude and resentment between Mozi and his ancestors."


    In Chang''an City, the public loser Hong Yang Tianchang sighed. The following public losers'' children listen carefully. In recent years, the public losers have also developed quite rapidly, which can be described as a large number of talents.


    "At the beginning of the song Chu war, the ancestor''s public defeat class helped the state of Chu to make siege weapons, while Mozi helped the state of song to make siege weapons. Then Mozi himself sent to the state of Chu to practice the art of attack in the court and the ancestor''s public defeat class. The ancestor was reluctant to lose. Finally, the state of Chu decided to give up attacking the state of song."


    "So Mozi can be said to be a great benefactor of the state of song!" Gong Shuhao sighed.


    Gongshu Hong nodded and said, "indeed, but it''s chilling. When Mozi returned from the state of Chu and passed the state of song, it happened that it rained heavily and came to a Lu Lane to take shelter from the rain. However, the guards of the Lu refused to let Mozi enter the Lu Lane to take shelter from the rain. Mozi did so great work for the state of song, but he didn''t even get a place to shelter from the wind and rain. What an irony is such a treatment."


    The sons of the public losers could not help but be silent. Although the public losers did not deal with Mohism, they reserved their respect for Mozi. They couldn''t help sighing when they saw Mozi''s treatment.


    "However, after a thousand years, the story of those who guard the Lu is repeated again. Three years ago, mojiazi proposed the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, and provided seeds, ink technology and schistosomiasis control for the south of the Yangtze River. It can be said that mojiazi made great contributions to the rise of the south of the Yangtze River, but now he has been driven out of the south of the Yangtze River. Isn''t it rejected again, and there is no place to shelter from the wind and rain How similar to Mozi''s experience. "Gongshu Hong couldn''t help sighing.


    "Mojia Zi!" for Mojia Zi, many public losers'' children love and hate. On the one hand, Mojia Zi has great talents and unique skills, which convinced the public losers. On the other hand, it is because Mojia Zi is here, and Mojia village has always oppressed the public losers.


    "One is Mozi, the other is Mozi after a thousand years. It''s God''s will that their experiences coincide so much." Gong Shuhao sighed.


    "So, isn''t Mojia village in the dilemma of being attacked again!" the public loser was overjoyed.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said: "No, the situation of the Mojia village will be worse. Now the Mojia village has lost the south of the Yangtze River, and the five surnames and seven hopes are eyeing the Central Plains. So far, the two sides are incompatible. Before that, the Mojia still has the line of the western region. Now the western region is unstable, Gaochang is rebellious, cutting off the Datang Silk Road, and with the continuous investment of the Maowusu Desert, the situation of the Mojia village is unprecedented and dangerous."


    After Gong Shuhong finished, he suddenly felt a sense of rabbit death and fox sorrow. Mohism and Gong Shujia belong to 100 families, and even Mohism is slightly better than Gong Shujia. There are amazing figures such as Mohism. Now even Mohism and Mohism village can''t escape the calculations of aristocratic families, and where will he go.


    Mo Fu Zhong!


    "Brother Mo, I''m sorry. The Chai family can''t help it this time. It''s not that the younger brother fell into trouble, but that Gaochang deceived people too much. He thinks he is a big country in the western regions. Under the instigation of Tubo and Western Turks, he even ignored the agreement and collected high taxes from Hu merchants and Tang merchants. Now Gaochang has made a bad relationship with Tang, and even the envoys sent by the imperial court have been removed Gao Chang withdrew. "Chai Lingwu apologized and came to the door to explain.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "it doesn''t matter. Three years ago, brother Chai was able to lend a helping hand, which has made Mo grateful. This is Gaochang''s fault. How can Mo be ignorant of good or bad due to force majeure."


    "Thanks for your understanding, brother Mo! Chai will still cooperate with brother mo after the suppression of Gaochang next year." Chai Lingwu breathed a sigh of relief and hugged boxing.


    In the past three years, he has made a fortune in the western regions by using the high-quality goods of Mojia village. In particular, the curative effect of Qinglong real medicine has allowed the Chai family caravan to run smoothly in the western regions and gain a lot of benefits. Naturally, he is unwilling to be hostile to Merton.


    Moreover, he didn''t think Gao Chang dared to challenge the Tang Dynasty. Many generals in the court were already angry. They shouted to send troops to destroy Gao Chang one by one, and the Chai family strongly encouraged them to send troops. If Gao Chang didn''t know what to do, I''m afraid there would be a disaster of sword soldiers.


    "Farewell, brother Mo!" Chai Lingwu nodded and got up to leave.


    "Little brother, send brother Chai!" Merton got up and said to each other.


    "Brother Mo, be careful. There''s something strange about Jiangnan. It''s said that Wuxing Qiwang has reached an agreement with Jiangnan aristocratic family to deal with Mohism together." Merton takes Chai Lingwu outside the door, and Chai Lingwu suddenly whispers.


    Merton''s body was in shape and thanked Chai Lingwu without any trace. Then he turned back.


    "Five surnames, seven hopes, Jiangnan aristocratic family!"


    In his study, Merton sighed in his heart. He thought he had the interests of the great development of the south of the Yangtze River. How can the Jiangnan aristocratic family wait until the great development of the south of the Yangtze River is successful before abandoning the Mohist village? However, he didn''t expect that the Jiangnan aristocratic family should be so short-sighted. It has only been just three years. The great development of the south of the Yangtze River has achieved initial results. The Jiangnan aristocratic family can''t help but be greedy and want to swallow the benefits of the south of the Yangtze River alone Benefits.


    "The aristocratic family is indeed the cancer of the world. Greed, ignorance and shortsightedness are obstacles to social progress." Merton took a deep breath. This time, he completely recognized the face of the aristocratic family.


    "Mei Niang!" Merton reached out and Wu Mei Niang, who had been waiting on the side, immediately came forward.


    "What''s the master''s order!" Wu Meiniang said to Ying Mei.


    "Immediately send orders to the Mohist children in Jiangnan, withdraw from Jiangnan in the shortest time and sell off Jiangnan industries." Merton said decisively.


    "Ah!" Wu Meiniang was surprised and couldn''t believe looking at the master. In this way, Mojia village suffered heavy losses.


    "Master, is it so easy to give up and bow to the aristocratic family?" Wu Meiniang didn''t understand. This is not Merton''s consistent style.


    Merton shook his head and said: "The most important thing of Mohism is its reputation. The people in Jiangnan think that Mohism occupies too many interests and are dissatisfied. If Mohism persists, it will only ruin the reputation of Mohism. Once Mohism withdraws, the aristocratic family will surely expand and let the people in Jiangnan see the greed of the aristocratic family. At that time, the people in Jiangnan will miss the kindness and righteousness of Mohism. At that time, it will be the time for Mohism to return to Jiangnan."


    "It''s not necessary to sell all the Mohist property!" Wu Meiniang said painfully.


    Merton shook his head and said, "once the Mohist children withdraw from Jiangnan, these are useless. However, it is a fool''s dream for the Jiangnan aristocratic family to take over the interests of the Mohist village. This time, the Mohist family will sell all the industries that can be split. Even if they lose money, they will also support a large number of ordinary people in Jiangnan."


    Morton was cold in his heart. Although the Mohist village withdrew from Jiangnan, it was not impossible to create trouble for Jiangnan aristocratic family and cultivate a large number of Jiangnan commoner landlords. With the rise of commoner landlords, it would certainly threaten the interests of Jiangnan aristocratic family. That was the real opponent of Jiangnan aristocratic family.


    "Yes! Master!" Wu Meiniang said solemnly. She knew that master was really angry this time. Even if she lost money, she would join the Jiangnan aristocratic family.

 Chapter 1019

    "Farewell, everyone!" said Mo Wu of Songjiang mansion, bowing to Sang Nong.


    Sang Nong''s heart is quite complicated. After the popularization of cotton in Songjiang Prefecture, he has indeed made a lot of contributions to Songjiang Prefecture. After planting cotton, sang Nong''s income has doubled. However, people''s hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. Although the price of buying cotton by Mohist school is expensive, the price of baidiezi after weaving by weaver girl is too different. Under the instigation of people with intentions, A large number of mulberry farmers are dissatisfied, and they have controlled enough cotton seeds. In addition, they are local snakes and Mohism is an outsider. They think it''s time to get rid of Mohism.


    "Mr. Mo is a good man. Everyone in Songjiang Prefecture has made profits in three years, but now he is pushed away by us. We are sorry for him!" the old man said with a ashamed face.


    A young man snorted coldly, "we have done our utmost to the Mohists. Cotton is from Songjiang mansion and white diezi is woven by Songjiang mansion. Why do we make most of the money by Mohists?"


    "Why don''t you think about who the seeds are? If the Mohists didn''t bring the seeds and the technology of planting cotton, or if the Mohists didn''t come to Songjiang mansion, you could also rebuild a Songjiang mansion. You didn''t thank me and didn''t say it. You even thanked the enemy with kindness and ran away with Master Zhang. Mr. Mo Wu said angrily.


    "The Mohists are stingy. Master Zhang said that as long as they get rid of the Mohists, he will buy more cotton at 30% of the price this year." the young man snorted coldly.


    Master Zhang is the biggest landlord in Songjiang Prefecture. Some of his family are officials in the court, which is the main force to run against Mohism this time. In order to run away from Mohism, he has paid a lot of money.


    "The Mohist family is benevolent and righteous. The aristocratic family is unreliable. You will regret it in the future." old sang Nong hates iron and doesn''t become steel. However, it''s a pity that people talk lightly. Everyone is attracted by Master Zhang''s high price purchase. No one is willing to listen to old sang Nong''s persuasion.


    "The Mohist school even gave me a hand." Master Zhang was angry and defeated.


    After hearing the news of Mo Wu''s departure, Master Zhang, who had succeeded, didn''t get the baidiezi workshop he wanted.


    When Mo Wu left, he directly divided the baidiezi workshop into several parts and sold them to a group of small landlords. He thought that only he had the strength to eat the baidiezi workshop of the Mohist school, and the bid was very fair. Except that he could not afford the price, the whole Songjiang government thought that the Mohist school would not refuse.


    However, Mo Wu did not expect that he would rather sell less money than split the baidiezi workshop and sell it to several small landlords in Songjiang Prefecture. After three years of experience of the Mohist school, everyone knows that cotton is of great use. As long as he can get the baidiezi workshop, he will surely make a steady profit. All the small landlords are ecstatic, and they can eat the baidiezi workshop after the split of the Mohist school, Then one by one without hesitation.


    These small landlords are also local real power groups. Although Master Zhang''s family is dominant, Master Zhang has no choice but to unite. Finally, coercion and inducement only get the largest share.


    In addition to the baidiezi workshop, Mohist caravans, refrigerated transport vehicles and various markets have also been split. The whole Jiangnan has almost set off a wealth carnival, dividing up the huge market left by Mohist withdrawal.


    Land of two lakes.


    Mo Wu looked at the land of two lakes where he had stayed for three years. In these three years, he did his best and led doctors to finally curb schistosomiasis in the land of two lakes.


    "This time, it''s the land of two lakes. I''m sorry, Mr. Mo Wu. Mr. Mo Wu''s departure is the loss of the whole Jiangnan." a Jiangnan doctor said with a guilty face.


    If there are complaints from other places about Mohism, however, Mohism is only kind to the land of the two lakes. After three years, the schistosomiasis epidemic area in the land of the two lakes has been reduced by half. After knowing the cause of the disease, the number of people in the water has been greatly reduced, the number of new schistosomiasis patients has dropped like a cliff, and the Gu disease that has shrouded the land of the two lakes for thousands of years has finally dissipated.


    "It doesn''t matter. Even if Mo leaves, Jiangnan doctors have done their best to prevent schistosomiasis and can slowly eliminate it. Otherwise, Jiangnan aristocratic family won''t drive the Mohist away so soon." Mo Wu said faintly.


    Jiangnan doctors were ashamed. Jiangnan aristocratic family did find him and asked him to undertake the important task of continuing to eliminate schistosomiasis after Mohist Zi left.


    "I..." the Jiangnan doctor suddenly looked up.


    Mo Wu waved his hand indifferently and said, "don''t explain. You and I are all doctors. It''s a talent to treat patients and save people. No matter what the external situation is, treating patients and saving people should be the first place. You''re not wrong."


    "I admire doctor Mo Wu for his noble medical ethics!" the doctor in Jiangnan was convinced.


    Mo Wu left the land of the two lakes and soon joined up with the team of Mohists. It was different from the momentum of Mohists who went to the south of the Yangtze River three years ago. This time, when Mohists returned from the south of the Yangtze River, their team seemed very dull. After all, they experienced the same retreat experience when they were surrounded and suppressed by five surnames and seven hopes. However, it happened again three years later. Is there really no place for Mohists to live in the world?


    The Mohist team crossed the Yangtze River and continued to go north along the brick road. When it reached Xingyang, it suddenly rained. However, the Mohist team had no intention of entering Xingyang to take shelter from the rain, but directly turned to the West.


    On the Xingyang city wall, Zheng Chang''s father and son looked at the Mohist children on their way silently in the rain. Even if they were caught in the rain, the whole Mohist team was still in good order without any disorder.


    "My father was indeed far sighted. He had predicted the end of Mohism three years ago." Zheng Chang couldn''t help but show a trace of schadenfreude when he looked at the evacuated Mohist team.


    Zheng''s master sighed: "The aristocratic family knows the aristocratic family best. The world thinks that my five surnames and seven hopes are all for their own private interests. Regardless of the world, they don''t know that my five surnames and seven hopes have learned to balance harmony and balance between the people and the aristocratic family, between the aristocratic family and the aristocratic family, and between the aristocratic family and the country. Otherwise, there are so many aristocratic families in the world. Why can only five surnames and seven hopes be inherited for thousands of years."


    "Father means that Jiangnan aristocratic family is not worried." Zheng Chang was surprised.


    Zheng''s family leader sneered: "that''s nature. It is with the help of Mohism that Jiangnan can have today''s situation. However, Jiangnan aristocratic family is so short-sighted that they lose their future for a little immediate interests. They think that once Mohism leaves, the so-called Jiangnan development will certainly become a joke. Jiangnan aristocratic family just destroys the Great Wall."


    "Why did my father unite with the Jiangnan aristocratic family and promise so many benefits to the Jiangnan aristocratic family?" Zheng Chang wondered.


    Looking at the Mohist motorcade disappearing into the rain, Zheng''s family leader said: "The purpose of the five surnames and seven hopes is always Mohism. Mohism involves the future life of the five surnames and seven hopes. Even if the Jiangnan aristocratic family wants more interests, we will not hesitate to agree. This is the best opportunity for us to convince Mohism. There are no three roads in the Central Plains, Jiangnan and western regions. Mohism is besieged by all sides. It is difficult for the Mohist family to fly this time."

 Chapter 1020

    "The Mohists are back!"


    When the Mohist team returned to Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city was full of rumors. There were people who sighed with wrists, heartache, and those who fought and hugged unevenly.


    However, in the court hall, no one pays attention. Everyone is attracted by one thing, that is, the Gaochang incident.


    After three years of development, coupled with the role of the envoys sent by the Tang Dynasty, the silk road is particularly prosperous, and the huge interests make the whole western region crazy.


    Of course, the greatest benefit is from Datang. Under the Datang silk system designed by Merton, silk can not only exchange a large amount of gold and silver from the extreme western countries, but also become the currency for bulk goods trading in the western regions. It can be said that Datang uses silk to firmly control the silk Road and obtain the largest cake.


    Of course, the Tang Dynasty did not forget the western countries, tried to coordinate their relations and protect the silk road. Instead of buying and selling caravans with a hammer, it collected taxes in a long stream. The western countries made a lot of profits and obtained rare peace at the same time.


    However, not all countries are grateful to Datang. Gaochang, a powerful country in the western regions, bears the brunt. Gaochang has developed rapidly in the past three years. Due to its proximity to Datang, not only has the Silk Road benefited a lot, but also driven by mojiazi, Datang''s demand for cotton is increasing day by day, and Gaochang is the origin of cotton, Selling Datang cotton seeds every year is a lot of money, and the national strength is increasing day by day.


    However, Gaochang, who has benefited a lot, is not satisfied. Compared with the profits of Datang, Gaochang''s income is only a drop in the bucket. In addition, Gaochang is the only place to pass through the Silk Road and the throat of the silk road. Behind it, there is the support of Tubo and Western Turks. His ambition is expanding day by day, and he has the ambition to touch the silk road.


    Moreover, three years ago, due to the threat of Tuyuhun, Datang did not control the silk road. The actual control of the silk road was Gaochang, the most powerful country in the western regions. However, Datang conquered Tuyuhun and invaded the western regions. Although Gaochang gained no less benefits than before, how can he be free.


    Three years later, the shock of Tuyuhun''s extinction has slowly receded, and Gaochang''s ambition has slowly expanded. Politically, it has turned to the West Turks to block the silk road. At the same time, it is also ambitious, expanding everywhere, sending troops to invade Yiwu, Yanqi and other countries, seriously threatening the security of the Tang silk road.


    The purpose of today''s great court meeting is to discuss Gaochang. After all, the interests of the Silk Road are too great. Datang can''t give up easily anyway.


    "Your Majesty, Gaochang is ambitious and attacks Yiwu, Yanqi and other countries for no reason. Now the envoys of the western countries have arrived in the Tang Dynasty and asked your majesty to preside over justice." the head of Honglu Temple took the lead in attacking Gaochang.


    "God Khan, please decide for us!"


    Two envoys from the western regions were summoned to the Tai Chi hall, and in tears they denounced Gaochang''s atrocities against Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin said with a straight face: "don''t worry, I will certainly seek justice for your two countries."


    These small countries are also the grass on the wall. They are strong and fall to which side. There was no weakness in intercepting and killing Datang caravan in those years. Now Gaochang has the support of Western Turks. They have no way to help. Only Datang can save them.


    "Thank God Khan!"


    The envoys of the two countries withdrew with gratitude and tears. The whole court was filled with righteous indignation again and denounced Gaochang''s crime.


    "Ju Wentai is an unjust teacher. It is a heinous crime to attack other countries and destroy the peace on the silk road."


    "The belligerent will perish. Gao Chang is arrogant. If heaven wants him to perish, he must first make him crazy. Gao Chang is to blame. Please send troops to attack Gao Chang."


    Military generals shouted one after another, including Chai zhewei, the new Duke of Qiao. Chai Shao, the Duke of Qiao, just died last year, and his eldest son Chai zhewei inherited Duke Qiao. This time Gaochang blocked the Silk Road, the Chai family suffered heavy losses. Gaochang cut off his wealth like killing his parents. Naturally, it will not let Gaochang go so easily. "


    "No, Gaochang is foolish. However, our Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. How can we set up troops to attack Gaochang at will? Isn''t it as barbaric as Gaochang?" Wang Yu stepped out to dissuade.


    Chai zhewei''s face sank. Wang Yu is the spokesman of the Taiyuan Wang family. This obstruction must be revenge for the fact that the Chai family helped the Mohist family before.


    "It''s ridiculous. Gaochang offended the Tianwei of the Tang Dynasty. If you don''t punish it severely, how do the 36 countries in the western regions think of the Tang Dynasty and how can the silk road be continued." Chai zhewei, the Duke of Qiao, said proudly. He once served as an envoy to the western regions. Naturally, he knew that Gaochang was a powerful country in the western regions. Once he subdued Gaochang, he would certainly be able to deter the countries in the western regions.


    The important officials of Manchu Dynasty could not help nodding in their hearts. The benefit of the silk road was that chaotang could not give up anyway. This time, Gaochang wanted to give Datang an explanation.


    Li Shimin nodded, looked at Linghu De, the Minister of rites, and said, "Lord Linghu, I sent messengers to Gaochang to recruit Ju Wentai into the court to explain the matter. Gaochang can reply!"


    Linghu de hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, Ju Wentai is sick and doesn''t want to come."


    "Your Majesty, the envoys in the imperial court can confirm that Ju Wentai was indeed seriously ill and had paid a lot of money for Qinglong real medicine, which is also true." Wang Yu said.


    Chai zhewei sneered: "now I''m a great doctor in the Tang Dynasty. I''m seriously ill. Isn''t it just possible for the doctor to treat me in the Tang Dynasty? Maybe there''s a glimmer of vitality. Even if he doesn''t want to travel a long way, he can send the crown prince. I''m sure Ju Wentai''s heart is empty. That''s why he didn''t dare to come to the Tang Dynasty. Lord Hu thinks no!"


    Linghu nodded helplessly: "Ju Wentai must have scruples about offending Tang Tianwei, and Ju Wentai not only refused to come to Korea, but wrote to ask for an increase in past business and travel tariffs before reopening the silk road."


    "Increase tariffs, Gaochang is threatening Datang with the silk road!" all officials in the Manchu Dynasty angrily said. If the silk road passes through Gaochang and Gaochang takes a layer, it will damage Datang''s interests in a disguised form.


    "Gaochang is stubborn, so you can only play with fire and set yourself on fire. Please lead the officers and men of the Tang Dynasty to destroy Gaochang and shake the western regions." Hou Junji suddenly stepped out of the way. Hou Junji was unlucky and didn''t get much in the last western expedition. He finally met Gaochang this time. Naturally, he didn''t want to let go and enthusiastically asked for war.


    "I beg you to go to war and raise the prestige of the Tang Dynasty." a group of military generals shouted one after another. For a moment, the hall was full of murderous spirit. After repeated wars, the two powerful enemies of Datang, East Turks and Tuyuhun, were in high morale. When they suddenly heard that Gaochang dared to provoke Datang, the generals immediately filled with indignation and asked for orders. In their view, it was a great credit.


    "Don''t act rashly. Gaochang is seven thousand miles away from the Tang Dynasty, of which two thousand miles are uninhabited. There are natural dangers such as white dragon beach. Behind it, there is the support of Tubo and West Turks. In addition, Gaochang has strong troops, high cities and deep rivers, easy to defend and difficult to attack. This war seems simple, but it is an unprecedented danger." Xiao Yu shook his head and objected.


    Xiao Yu''s words are like pouring cold water on the whole court. As Xiao Yu said, it''s simple to destroy Gaochang. However, there are many factors to consider. It''s like pulling one hair and moving the whole body. If you don''t keep your mind, your previous achievements will be wasted.


    The reason why Gaochang dared to challenge Datang was that Gaochang was far away from Datang, and the road was dangerous, so it was difficult to support the army to go, while Gaochang was not afraid of a small group of Tang troops, even if Datang sent troops not far away,


    "Gaochang is seven thousand miles away from the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid it''s difficult to transport large siege weapons, and Gaochang city is the first male city in the western regions. I''m afraid it can only be filled with the lives of Tang soldiers. It''s even more unpredictable and the risk is too great." Wang Yu shook his head and objected.


    Hou Junji sneered: "with Longhai brick road, what siege weapons can''t be transported."


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work on one side, felt guilty and said, "Lord Hou doesn''t know. In recent years, the imperial court has focused on supporting the development of the south of the Yangtze River. The Ministry of work has made every effort to build a north-south passage, and the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumenguan has not been built yet."


    Not only has it not been repaired, it can even be said that there is no construction at all. Lanzhou is nearly 2000 miles away from Yumenguan, and most of them are deserted places. The investment is huge, and the harvest is minimal. How can we build brick roads in the Central Plains quickly!


    "You are simply delaying the fighter!" Hou Junji lost his way in a hurry.


    For a while, the DPRK and China were divided into two factions. One was in charge of war and the other was in charge of peace. The two sides could not argue.


    Hou Junji looked at Xiao Yu and Wang Yu of the Lord and said, "the two adults are worried that it is just a problem that gaochangbing has many cities and it is difficult to supply two thousand miles of desert, but I don''t know that one of them has easily solved these two problems when Tuyuhun was on the western expedition."


    "Easy to solve, who is this person?" the Minister of man Dynasty frowned and looked at Hou Junji suspiciously.


    "Lord Hou, don''t talk nonsense." Xiao Yu said displeased.


    Hou Junji showed a trace of cunning and said, "Lord Xiao doesn''t know anything. When it comes to attacking the city, I think I''ve attacked countless cities and territories, but I''m convinced of one person. That''s mohou."


    "During the western expedition to Tuyuhun, marquis Mo used gunpowder to destroy three fort in Tuyuhun without losing one soldier. Later, he pursued thousands of miles, went deep into the 800 mile vast sea, held his promise and returned. Marquis Mo became famous in the first war. The strong city was destroyed by the wave of Marquis Mo, and the 800 mile vast sea people entered and died ten times. However, marquis Mo can retreat all over. It must be in Marquis Mo''s opinion that Gaochang is beautiful This reliance is not sufficient. "


    Hou Junji said that almost everyone focused on Merton, the last of the hundred officials. Yes, the Mohists had overcome the difficulties they were worried about attacking Gaochang. If they could overcome these difficulties, how could a small Gaochang be paid attention to by Datang.


    What''s more interesting to all officials is that Wang Xiang and Xiao Xiang, leaders of five surnames and seven hopes, and representatives of Jiangnan aristocratic family, both have a deep festival with the Mohist family. This time, it is widely rumored in Chang''an that the Mohist family once again encountered the defenders and had an inseparable relationship with the two. Hou Junji''s move is sinister.


    Xiao Yu immediately looked embarrassed. The reason why the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumen pass was suspended was because he had reached an agreement with Wuxing Qiwang. Wuxing Qiwang secretly helped Jiangnan aristocratic family to carry out the great development of Jiangnan. Three years later, after Jiangnan aristocratic family used up Mohism, it gave a fatal blow to Mohism, put Mohism in a desperate situation, or completely control Mohism and leave a way for the aristocratic family, Or force Li Shimin to negotiate.


    After all, Jiangnan aristocratic family is also an aristocratic family. Although there is no inheritance of five surnames and seven hopes for thousands of years, and there are at least hundreds of years of wealth, how can he be willing to give up the wealth handed down from generation to generation in his hands? Otherwise, how can Xiao Yu be so short-sighted that he can''t see that five surnames and seven hopes abandoned Mohism by picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon, but for the benefit of the aristocratic family, Even if he gave up the future of the whole Jiangnan, he would not hesitate.


    Hou Junji smiled at the last Merton of the hundred officials and said in a loud voice, "ink sacrifice wine, you can have the way to break Gaochang city."


    "Gunpowder!"


    Hou Junji didn''t call Morton the Marquis of Mo, but called Morton the sacrifice of wine, which immediately reminded people of the position of Morton''s firearm supervisor. Three years ago, the firearm supervisor could break the three Fort Tuyuhun. Now, three years later, the firearm supervisor under the command of the Mexican family is more powerful than three years ago.


    Under the gaze of all officials, Merton stood out silently and solemnly said, "one blow can break!"


    "Hiss!" the crowd couldn''t help but take a breath. If others were to laugh, they would lose their big teeth. However, this remark came from the mouth of the Mohist school, but it was involuntarily convincing.


    Xiao Leng hummed, "Gaochang city is broken, but the desert road two thousand miles west of Yumen is not easy to go."


    Merton could not deny that: "under the compass made by the Mohists and the exploration of Silk Road merchants in recent years, there is no secret for the Tang Dynasty."


    The compass is the secret of Merton''s retreat from the vast ocean. Merton gave Chai Lingwu a compass, which is the biggest support for the Chai family''s bold westward advance in the western regions.


    "Mo''s wine offering is too conceited. The matter of Gaochang will affect the whole body. If Tubo and West Turks intervene,......" Wang Yu was furious and refuted Merton.


    "The soldiers are dangerous. If you let tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty bury their bones in other countries because you offered wine and talked nonsense, can you bear the responsibility!" Xiao Yu snorted angrily.


    If the battle of Gaochang breaks out, the focus of the imperial court will certainly shift to Gaochang. At that time, not only will the development of the south of the Yangtze River be delayed, but the Mojia village will be brought back to life because of the military order.


    The two leaders of the north and the South came forward to denounce Merton. For a while, the officials of the north and the South denounced Merton for making irresponsible remarks and deliberately provoking war.


    Merton''s mouth was raised. Facing the accusations of all officials, he did not retreat but advanced: "ink has a skill that can make Datang invincible."


    In an instant, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty stopped abruptly. He looked at Merton inconceivably. Even if Li Jing, the military God, was here, he dared not say that the Tang Dynasty would be invincible, and the Mexican family dared to say such crazy words.


    "Is that true?" Hou Junji said happily.


    The officials couldn''t help staring at Merton. Although they didn''t believe Merton''s words, they couldn''t help but pay attention to the first half of Merton''s sentence. Ink has a skill.


    In the court hall, whenever Mo Jiazi said this, his ink skills surprised four people. Even Li Shimin looked forward to Merton and asked which dynasty didn''t want to be invincible.


    "Mozi''s secret book!" all officials thought of Mozi, the most hidden card, and the source of Mozi''s ink technology.


    Under the gaze of the people, Merton showed a trace of evil smile, as if he understood the hearts of the people and thought: "this skill does not come from Mozi''s secret book, but a well-known allusion of the Mohist saint. I wonder if you have ever heard of an allusion."


    "Those who guard the Lu are not inside!"

 Chapter 1021

    "Those who guard the Lu are not inside!"


    In an instant, the atmosphere of the whole chaotang hall was very strange. Although the focus of the chaotang hall is now on the Gaochang incident, it doesn''t mean that people don''t know the experience of Mohist village and the gratitude and resentment between Merton and Jiangnan aristocratic families.


    Xiao Xuan couldn''t help looking blue. He was the culprit of the Mohist School''s second encounter with Lu defenders. Now he was mentioned by the Mohist son in front of all officials in the Manchu Dynasty. How can he not be embarrassed? This made the arrogant Xiao Xuan angry.


    Looking at the strange officials, Li Shimin couldn''t help but show an imperceptible smile and said, "Mozi tried his best to help the state of song. It''s cold to be treated like this by the people of song."


    With Merton and Li Shimin singing in unison, almost all the officials in Jiangnan looked ashamed. There is no doubt that Jiangnan defeated Mohism.


    "The story of the Mohist guarding the Lu is well known all over the world now. Could it be that the Mohist realized his great ink skill in the rain outside the Lu of the Song Dynasty." Hou Junji didn''t forget the business while mending his knife.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, this secret skill can be traced back to the contest with the public loser class in the chaotang of the state of Chu before the return of Mo Sheng to the Song Dynasty."


    Xiao Yu and a group of Jiangnan officials were so angry that they rushed to their hearts against the blood. It was clear that it was something that happened in the court of the state of Chu. However, it was estimated that the Mohist school would deliberately retaliate against Jiangnan officials and humiliate all their officials in the court when he mentioned the allusions of the guards who were not involved when Mozi returned to the Song Dynasty.


    Xiao Yu was unhappy and hummed coldly: "It''s sad. In those days, Mozi went south alone to defuse the war between song and Chu and save the people from war. Unfortunately, thousands of years later, his descendants completely forgot the Mozi''s concept of non attack. What''s more, he deliberately provoked the war between Datang and Gaochang and wasted the lives of our officers and soldiers of Datang. Is it true that today''s Mozi is still the former Mozi, I don''t know how Mozi will feel if he knows under the fountain? "


    Merton satirizes the Jiangnan aristocratic family with those who defend the Lu, while Xiao Yu counterattacks Merton with the idea that the Mohist family abandoned the Mohist non attack concept, and washes white for the Jiangnan aristocratic family. It seems that a Mohist village that abandoned the Mohist family is not so worthy of sympathy.


    Merton proudly said: "The non attack of Mohist school is not against war, but against unjust war and meaningless war. However, Mozi has been running around all his life and has never been able to stop the disputes in the world. Finally, the Mohist School divided into three parts and inherited Mozi''s legacy. Finally, it came to the conclusion that only when the world is one, can the world be non attacked, and finally join the Qin Dynasty and help the Qin Dynasty unify the world. So far, for thousands of years, the Xiangli family has firmly consolidated the unity of the world , he was committed to the unification of China. At that time, his father took the strength of the Mohist village and went to his majesty. What he wanted was the unification of the world and non aggression. This was the real non aggression concept of Mohism. "


    Li Shimin could not help nodding. Xiangli''s pulse did not abandon the concept of non attack, but practiced the concept of non attack in another form.


    Morton turned his head and looked at Xiao Yu solemnly and said, "and Lord Xiao looked too high at Mohism. In the war between song and Chu, Mozi did not resolve the war between song and Chu alone, but resolved a war that the state of Chu would lose. Mozi''s attack and defense drills in the court of the state of Chu and the public defeat class made the state of Chu see that the war would lose. Naturally, the state of Chu would not continue the war, so he took the initiative to retreat."


    All the officials in the Manchu Dynasty nodded one after another. Merton''s words were indeed pertinent. He did not exaggerate the myth of Mozi. My guest told me the inside story.


    Hou Junji''s heart moved, and he immediately understood that Merton''s method of invincible attack is the same attack and defense drill as Mozi and the public defeat class. He knows the victory or defeat of the war in advance and knows himself and the enemy. Naturally, he can win every battle.


    "If we use the attack and defense methods of Mozi and the public defeat class to simulate the war, the two sides will fight again and again, look for each other''s shortcomings and increase our own advantages until we have the assurance of victory and one blow is fatal." Merton looked around and said proudly.


    The eyes of all the military generals immediately brightened. As generals, they naturally know how serious mistakes are on the battlefield. If they can make a fresh start in the war and make up for mistakes like exercises, it will be a very exciting thing. This is simply an artifact of the military''s dream, which is comparable to the telescope to Taoism and the microscope to doctors.


    Xiao Xuan was a very clever man. Naturally, he also knew what Mohist Zi meant. He shook his head and said with a smile, "it''s ridiculous. Is it possible that we can win the battle of Gaochang by undressing in the court hall and practicing with fake wood molds?"


    Suddenly, a crowd of civil servants couldn''t help laughing. In their view, it was even more ridiculous than talking on paper.


    Merton was not angry at all, but calmly looked at the ministers and said: "The reason why Mozi and Gongshu class can attack and defend with simple items is that they are both highly intelligent people who can easily understand each other''s meaning. After thousands of years, the war of attack and defense has changed, and the battlefield is more unpredictable. If they are not careful, the whole army will be destroyed. Therefore, after thousands of years of improvement, Mozi and Gongshu class hope to reproduce Mozi and Gongshu class The duel in was due to defeat. It was not until three years ago, when his majesty rewarded the little girl with millions of hectares of Mu Us desert that Wei Chen was inspired to improve this secret skill. "


    "Desert? Is it because this ink technique is made of sand?" Wang Yu shook his head and said with a laugh.


    Officials laughed one after another, but to everyone''s surprise, Merton nodded slowly and said, "yes, it''s done by sand. Adding water to sand can increase viscosity, gather and disperse visible, and put it on the plate. It can easily simulate all kinds of mountains and rivers. At the same time, it can also repeat exercises many times. Weichen calls it a sand table."


    "Sand table!" the generals could not help thinking. If they could really simulate the terrain on the battlefield with sand, it would be easy for a general to coordinate the overall situation and play an important role in the war.


    Merton solemnly nodded his head and said, "I inform your majesty that there is sand in the palace now. I wonder if your Majesty would like to reproduce the actions of Mozi and the public defeat Class in the Tai Chi hall and practice the battle of Gaochang with the skill of sand table."


    As early as when Merton built the swimming pool for the palace, he had already transported a lot of sand to the palace, which is now in use.


    "Sure!" Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    Soon, the ground of the Tai Chi hall was covered with sand. Under Merton''s skillful hands, a lifelike topographic map of the western region appeared in front of all civil and military officials.


    Mountains, rivers, roads, cities, deserts, oases, all the situations in the western region are in front of us. Everyone overlooks the whole western region. From the perspective of God, everyone feels that everything is under control.

 Chapter 1022

    "Look at my Turkic spirit riding!"


    "Mo Dao team, top!"


    "Don''t forget that I have Tibetan backhands."


    "Don''t worry, I''ve been on guard against you for a long time."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    On the court hall, a group of generals are divided into two factions, one representing the Tang Dynasty and the other representing Gaochang. Both sides are good generals who have experienced the battlefield for a long time. Each side is brave and good at fighting. On the sand table, they kill people and horses, and make strange moves at the same time. It can be said that it is extremely wonderful.


    At the beginning, Gaochang occupied the advantage and won two games in a row. However, as Datang improved its strategy and made up for its defects, it finally broke Gaochang and won five games in a row.


    "Another city!" with Li Shimin''s joyful roar, the Tang cavalry represented by the Paperweight on the sand table attacked Gaochang city. Hou Junji, who regarded the wat board as the Western Turkic cavalry, couldn''t help but sigh.


    "Two defeats and six victories. Now Gaochang is exhausted. I have more than one hand in Datang, and I will win this battle." although Hou Junji lost the sand table, he was not a bit depressed, but full of joy.


    With this sand table exercise, the people of Datang have clearly seen the cards of Gaochang and other countries, and formulated the corresponding counter strategy. The balance of victory in this war has tilted to Datang.


    "It is said that when Qin Shihuang built his mausoleum, he built a large topographic model in his mausoleum. The model not only built mountains, hills and cities, but also used mercury to simulate rivers and seas, and used mechanical devices to make mercury flow and circulate. Today, I have a better Mohist sand table." Li Shimin looked at the clear topographic map of the western region in the hall, I can''t help sighing.


    When Merton made the sand table, he mixed his own private materials and made it according to the precise terrain of later generations, which made it clear at a glance, which aroused Li Shimin''s emotion.


    Merton nodded and said, "unfortunately, Qin Shihuang''s move is just for his own personal gain and has been buried underground for nearly a thousand years. Otherwise, the sand table will be born ahead of time and will certainly change the way of war."


    "It''s not too late now. With this sand table, we can deduce before the war and greatly improve the winning rate of Datang." Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.


    "Your Majesty, the sand table can also be used as a teaching tool for military cadets. Let the military cadets deduce on the sand table so that they don''t only learn military books and talk on paper." Li Jing bowed. He had just started the sand table once and couldn''t put it down. If he could let the military academy students practice with the sand table, he could soon grow into a qualified officer.


    "Yes!" Li Shimin said with a big hand.


    The Manchu generals nodded again and again. They were quite surprised by the wonderful use of the sand table. Even in the just eight contests, the advantages and disadvantages of both sides were clear at a glance. Datang was improving accordingly, and the battle of Gaochang was in hand.


    "I beg your majesty to send troops and march on Gaochang in the West." a group of generals took orders one after another. Before, civil servants opposed to sending troops. They were confident, but they had nothing to say. Now there is a sand table deduction in front of them. The victory of the Tang Dynasty in the battle of Gaochang is in hand. Naturally, they encourage them to send troops one by one.


    "Hou Aiqing, you are the Minister of the Ministry of war. Explain the results of the sand table military exercise just now to the hundred officials." Li Shimin also greatly increased his confidence and said to the hundred officials.


    Hou Junji solemnly listed: "according to the results of the sand table military exercise just now, the odds of winning the Tang Dynasty will be more than 80%, and there is great potential for this war."


    "Eighty percent, what if the Tubo sent troops to intervene, and the Western Turks sent troops? Our army is seven thousand miles away, isolated and helpless. Isn''t it waiting to die?" Xiao Yu retorted.


    Hou Junji shook his head and said, "Tubo and Gaochang are separated by Tuyuhun. If Tubo wants to send troops, it will be restrained by Tuyuhun. Even if they reluctantly send troops, Tubo soldiers who go down the plateau are not afraid."


    "What about western Turks? Western Turks are well deserved overlords in the western regions, and they are adjacent to Gaochang. If Western Turks send troops on a large scale, what are our chances of winning the Tang Dynasty?" Wang asked.


    "Therefore, the best time for Datang to send troops is the December of this year. Only in this way can we greatly increase the victory rate of Datang."


    "La Yue!" all officials exclaimed one after another. La Yue saw that the Chinese new year was coming, and even sent troops at this time.


    Hou Junji nodded and said, "Chang''an is seven thousand miles away from Gaochang. We must send troops in the twelfth lunar month to have enough time to end the war around August next year. Otherwise, once it is delayed to autumn, the West Turkic horse is fat and strong, I''m afraid it will interfere, and the weather becomes cold. Our army is seven thousand miles away, with little supply, and it will change after a long delay."


    All the officials nodded silently. It was indeed the best choice to end the war before August. One example of the failure of the military exercise just now was that the war was delayed to the autumn, and a large number of reinforcements from Western Turks arrived, which was on the verge of success.


    "Moreover, even if the West Turks send troops, our army will make corresponding strategies. Among the generals of the Tang Dynasty, Qixin Heli is the most familiar with Gaochang landform, and is the same source as the West Turks. It is most appropriate for him to lead the way and block the West Turks." Hou Junji said confidently.


    I have to say that Hou Junji is indeed a good general. In a few words, he has shown the advantages of Datang, so that all officials can no longer find a reason to oppose.


    Moreover, many civil servants present are old people who follow Li Shimin to fight the world. Naturally, they also have the courage to start a war. Now Datang has an 80% chance of winning, and naturally they will not shrink back.


    So far, the tone of the war against Gaochang has been set.


    "Unfortunately, I don''t know how many soldiers are buried in other places in this war." Xiao Yu said bitterly. Once Datang goes to war against Gaochang, Datang''s focus will shift to the west, and the booming Jiangnan will probably stagnate.


    "Xiao Aiqing really sympathized with the soldiers. Hou Aiqing led the generals to continue to deduce the sand table, trying to find the best way to defeat Gaochang, minimize the casualties of soldiers, and let doctors prepare more Qinglong real medicine. I heard that doctor Mo Wu has returned from the south of the Yangtze River. Doctor Mo Wu has made great contributions to the treatment of schistosomiasis, and was rewarded after the war."


    "Minister Wei, thank you for Mo Wu, your majesty!" Merton stepped out and thanked Mo Wu.


    Xiao Xuan and other officials in Jiangnan looked Hao Ran. Mo Wu was also meritorious to Jiangnan, but Jiangnan lost Mo Wu. Now they were mentioned in public, which made them lose face again.


    Hou Junji said in his heart: "return to your majesty and fight in Gaochang. The biggest battle is still in Gaochang city. If you want to reduce the damage of soldiers, Weichen has another requirement, which can certainly minimize the loss of Tang soldiers."


    "Oh! Hou Aiqing, please." Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.


    "I want to enlist Marquis Mo to lead the firearms supervisor to follow the army to Gaochang!" Hou Junji said proudly.


    "Mojiazi!"


    The generals were moved. Many of them personally followed Li Jing on the western expedition to Tuyuhun. Naturally, they knew the power of gunpowder. Tuyuhun''s three fortresses hit down. In addition, on the day of the decisive battle between Datang and Tuyuhun and when Tiangou ate the day, the strategy of Mohist school to reverse Yin and Yang with gunpowder is still fresh in people''s memory.


    In the Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid only the Mohist school can use gunpowder so brilliantly. If you want to win Gaochang and reduce casualties, I''m afraid using firearms is the best choice.

 Chapter 1023

    "I!" Merton was stunned.


    "Yes, what do you think?" Hou Junji said with a smile.


    Merton was silent for a moment and said with an arched hand, "it''s incumbent on Mo to fight for his country. However, the Mojia village is now a mess. Mo is responsible for reviving the Mojia. If he lets the Mojia go at the moment and goes to Gaochang, how can he rest assured that his family and country are in a dilemma!"


    Everyone can''t help nodding. The current situation of Mohism is naturally clear to everyone. This is the most difficult time for Mohism. It can even be said that life and death is not too much. Mohism can barely support it. Once Mohism leaves, I''m afraid the hard-working revival of Mohism will be destroyed.


    The officials of Wuwang and Qixing couldn''t help but move in their hearts. If the Mohist son left, the whole Mohist school would collapse. At that time, they would not be slaughtered by them. At that time, Wang Yu slightly signaled that a neutral imperial historian came out from the crowd: "the Mohist school has always advertised loyalty and patriotism. The western expedition to Gaochang is the time when the Mohist Marquis contributes to the country. How can he give up everyone because of his small family."


    "That''s right! The Mojia village has a great cause. There are still green dragon real medicine and glass secret skills in hand. It has long been in an invincible position. Mohou is just a word of evasion."


    "Mojia village is the richest in the world, and every village has a household. It has already surpassed the world. I don''t know how many places. Mohou is too greedy."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the continuous run of many aristocratic family officials, the whole atmosphere of the court was immediately extremely unfavorable to Merton.


    Merton looked at a group of ill intentioned aristocratic family officials and frowned: "I inform your majesty that the minister led the army in December. The journey is far away. I''m afraid he can go west to Yumen and set out for Gaochang when the snow melts in March next year. I beg the minister to allow Mo to spend more time dealing with Mohist affairs, and then reach Yumen in March and join the army. In this way, I can ensure the integrity of my family and country, and I can worry free and serve my country wholeheartedly."


    "March!" man Chao''s eyes suddenly flashed. According to Merton''s meaning, he should get the Mohists out of trouble before March next year, not earlier. After all, Merton has to set aside at least a month to get from Chang''an city to Yumen pass.


    The Mohist village has been out of trouble for several months. Whether the Mohist is mystifying or confident, many aristocratic family officials hesitate.


    "There is no precedent for this matter. I don''t know what your courtiers think?" Li Shimin didn''t answer directly, but turned his head and asked a group of ministers.


    Hou Junji could not help frowning. As the leader general, he naturally didn''t want to have such a prick under his command. Moreover, according to military regulations, he had already set out for war as the leader general, but a young general under his command was late. He could directly kill him with the crime of missing the deadline.


    However, he knew that Mohist could not move, not to mention that Merton was the princess of Changle, but that Merton''s status as the leader of Mohist also made him taboo. What''s more, now he needs Merton and firearms prison, not Merton to beg him.


    After the deduction just now, Merton''s firearm prison is the key to successfully breaking Gaochang city. Merton can be said to have controlled the weight to win Gaochang in the western expedition. As long as he can defeat Gaochang, he can make up for the regret of Tuyuhun in the western expedition. He can compete with Li Jing in credit and reputation. At this time, Hou Junji can''t give up anyway.


    After all, the generals who destroyed the country in the Tang Dynasty did not deserve to be called famous generals at all. Hou Junji urgently needed a war to destroy the country to prove himself.


    Thinking of this, Hou Junji squeezed out a smile and said: "The Mohists have contributed to the destruction of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mohist village shoulders the important task of forging military industry. Mohist Marquis settled the Mohist village first to ensure adequate supply of military supplies. It is also for the western expedition. The general will wait for you at Yumen pass in March, but the ugly story is ahead. If Mohist Marquis fails to arrive and delays the western expedition, don''t blame the general for not being considerate."


    "Thank you, general Hou. Thank you very much." Merton said solemnly.


    A group of aristocratic family officials looked at each other. It was only a few months before they set out for Gaochang. Now the northern and southern aristocratic families are converging. If there is no one to help the Mohist in the Tang Dynasty, they don''t believe that the Mohist son can turn the world upside down.


    Li Shimin looked at the court and there was no objection. At that moment, he nodded with satisfaction and said to Merton, "in that case, Mo Aiqing will seize the time to solve the things in the Mojia village. This time, I believe no one will embarrass the Mojia village."


    Although Li Shimin said to Merton, he actually warned all the aristocratic family officials that in the past three years, all the aristocratic families have used Yin moves against the Mohist family. This time, he wants the Mohist family to compete fairly with all the aristocratic families.


    Of course, this kind of fairness cannot be absolutely fair. After all, the influence of the aristocratic family is there, and the power it can use is too great. However, the Mo family is also not vegetarian. It can defend and counterattack when forced by five surnames and seven hopes. Once there is no official pressure, Merton has no chance to turn over.


    "That''s natural! I hope Marquis Mo can solve the internal affairs in time and work for the court as soon as possible." Wang Pei said first.


    Li Shimin has clearly warned them not to use power to force the Mojia village. If the aristocratic family doesn''t know the phase, it will be settled by Li Shimin in after autumn. Now that the north and South aristocratic families merge and stare at the Mojia village, they don''t believe that the Mojia son can escape the palm of the aristocratic family.


    Wang Xuan nodded first on behalf of the five surnames and seven hopes. Although Xiao Xuan was unwilling, he also knew that Li Shimin had set the tone. If he continued to oppose, he would probably hate Li Shimin. That was not good news for Jiangnan. Moreover, they convinced Mojia village according to Li Shimin''s conditions. Even Li Shimin would not say anything.


    Seeing that the Mohist family and the aristocratic family have reached a balance, Kong Yingda has been watching coldly. His mind is extremely complex. Mohism and Confucianism are rivals for thousands of years. If Mohism fails, I''m afraid there will be no savings in the future.


    It is reasonable to say that Kong Yingda should hope that the Mohist school will fail. However, he hopes that the Mohist school will win this time. He is a hundred schools. Naturally, he does not want to see the pride of the hundred schools destroyed by the aristocratic family. Moreover, the aristocratic family is also an obstacle to the promotion of primary schools by Confucianism and the realization of homonymy in the world.


    "The minister has this play." Kong Yingda moved in his heart and said in a loud voice.


    The civil and military spirit of the Manchu Dynasty was immediately attracted. During the three years of dormancy of the Mohist school, Confucianism was at the height of the sun. The wealth of the Confucian family opened libraries everywhere in the Tang Dynasty to allow poor children to read for free. It can be said that it was praised by all students all over the world, and the reputation of the Confucius family was no different.


    "Kong Aiqing, please speak!" Li Shimin said with a pleasant face. Li Shimin has always wanted to support the poor family and break the aristocratic family''s monopoly on chaotang. The library opened by the Kong family is of great merit. With the existence of the library, the gap between the children of the poor family and the children of the aristocratic family in knowledge and knowledge has become smaller and smaller, and the children of the poor family have begun to see momentum.


    "Now, according to the deduction, the success rate of Gaochang in the western expedition of the Tang Dynasty has reached 80%. I don''t know how to deal with Gaochang after defeating Gaochang. Is it like Tuyuhun to set up a new king, or like the Han Dynasty to set up the capital of the Western Regions?" Kong Yingda asked solemnly.


    Everyone frowned and made the establishment of a new king very reassuring to the court, but also guarding the border for the Tang Dynasty. For example, tuyuhunfushun is the barrier for the Tang Dynasty to guard against Tubo.


    However, setting up the western region capital protection can merge Gaochang under the Tang Dynasty and allow the Tang Dynasty to open up its territory and expand its territory, but the disadvantage is that it is too far away and all sides are enemies.


    "I wonder if Kong Aiqing has a good plan." Li Shimin''s eyes flashed.


    Kong Yingda said directly, "I think Gao Chang is the guarantee for the safety of the Silk Road of the Tang Dynasty, and setting up the capital of the western regions is the best choice. Moreover, Kong huisuo, a descendant of the Kong family, has completed the compilation of homonymy. Taking Gao Chang as an experimental place for homonymy, we can show the advantages and disadvantages of homonymy and will not cause unrest in the Tang Dynasty."


    If you want to promote homonymy, you must promote primary schools. Nowadays, Confucianism has many difficulties in promoting primary schools in Datang, but Gaochang, which has just been laid, is a white paper without the help of aristocratic families. If Confucianism promotes homonymy in Gaochang, it will affect the promotion of homonymy in Datang.


    The crowd could not help but be shocked. The recent hundred schools seemed to be a little grumpy. The Mohist School shouted to fight Tuyuhun and Gaochang. Under the influence of the Mohist school, chaotang just decided to fight Gaochang. In the twinkling of an eye, Confucianism had thought of annexing Gaochang and promoting homonymy.


    "Kong Aiqing''s remark is quite reasonable, but it''s too early to discuss the matter now." Li Shimin didn''t say it in public.


    The ministers nodded one after another. Although they had decided to fight against Gaochang, after all, the war had not started. It was too early to consider the post-war affairs.


    However, Kong Yingda''s words have taken root in people''s hearts. If Gaochang can be incorporated into the Tang Dynasty, wear Chinese clothes and speak Chinese, there will be no doubt with the people of the Tang Dynasty in less than a century, then the Tang Dynasty will firmly occupy this strategic place.


    The plan of Confucianism is far-sighted, and many aristocratic families can''t see the plan of Confucianism. However, it is the final stage of their competition with Mohism that they naturally have no time to worry about Confucianism.


    The power of the aristocratic family is extremely huge, especially after the confluence of the Jiangnan aristocratic family and the five surnames and seven hopes, the Mohist not only lost the North-South market, but also the two markets of Chang''an and Luoyang.


    During the three years when the Mohists came to Jiangnan, Wuxing and Qiwang never gave up to suppress the Mohists. Even if they lost money, Chang''an market has been competing with the Mohists at a low price. Now the Jiangnan aristocratic family has also joined in the encirclement and suppression of the Mohists. The merchants of the Tang Dynasty who got the wind naturally avoid the Mohist village. The form of the Mohist has become more severe than ever.


    "Little nephew, I have offended uncle Zheng before." Xiao Rui apologized to Zheng''s master with a wry smile.


    "Those who don''t know are innocent. This is a routine plan secretly discussed by Zheng and brother Xiao. Not only do you know, but even the child Zheng Chang doesn''t know. It''s just a misunderstanding before." the master of the Zheng family waved his hand.


    Sticking to the rules was originally the word of Mohism, but it was slowly misunderstood by the world as old-fashioned and unwilling to change. The master of Zheng''s family used the word of Mohism as the code for trapping Mohism, which can be said to have a deep intention.


    Xiao Rui and Zheng Chang looked at each other. They were embarrassed. All along, they thought that the two families were opposite. There was no shortage of runs before. Who would have thought that their father had conspired to cooperate three years ago and hid them in the drum. It was really a flood that washed the Dragon king temple.


    "If it wasn''t for this, how could the Mo family be deceived, and how could the routine plan work." Xiao Yu said in his heart that the Xiao family would gain the most this time. Not only did he take advantage of the great development of the south of the Yangtze River to become the leader of the Jiangnan aristocratic family and gain the greatest benefits, but also he became the top aristocratic family of the Tang Dynasty by virtue of his conspiracy with the five surnames and seven hopes.


    Xiao Rui opened his mouth slightly and wanted to say something, but finally he had to give up. These things were beyond his control.


    Zheng Chang, who was on the other side, was very excited and said, "what my father said about the routine plan is exactly what trapped the Mojia village today. Today''s Mojia Zi can be described as a dragon trapped in the shoal, a tiger falling into the flat sun, and an air transportation ink technology. There is no world merchant to cooperate with it in marketing, so in the end, he can only sit and wait to die."


    "This time, everyone in the world can''t avoid Mohism. I''d like to see how one Mohist village can turn the sky." Zheng''s master said confidently.


    Three years ago, he was careless and let the Mohist family find the loopholes in the western regions and Jiangnan. This time, the loopholes of both sides have been filled. Coupled with the influence of aristocratic families in the world, even if he no longer openly attacked the Mohist village, he believes that the Mohist family can''t fly this time.


    Xiao Rui looked at his father and Zheng''s father and son laughing, but there was a faint unease in his heart. The Mohist son took out the art of sand table, which can be said to be no strategic strategy, but did the Mohist son really not calculate it?

 Chapter 1024

    "Master, master Qian has sent a letter to apologize for not cooperating with the Mohist school!" Wu Meiniang came in worried and reported a bad news to Morton.


    "Master Qian!" Merton frowned. Master Qian was the first collaborator of Mohism. He had always had huge business contacts with Mohism. Unexpectedly, he turned his back on Mohism now.


    "The Qian family leader is one of the side branches of the money family in Jiangnan. His choice is not surprising." Xu Jie sighed.


    As the saying goes, there are no double blessings and double disasters. After the Qian family leader gave up his cooperation with the Mohist family, a group of merchants of the Jiangnan family also made a clear relationship with the Mohist village one after another. After all, the famous big merchants in the Tang Dynasty are dependent on aristocratic families. Now all aristocratic families in the world have turned against the MOH family, and the big merchants naturally stand in line one after another.


    The small merchants are even more driven by the wind, and they don''t have the courage to fight against the aristocratic family. They avoid the Mohist school like snakes and scorpions one by one.


    "The aristocratic family is really sinister. Your majesty has ordered not to target the Mohist family, but the aristocratic family forces the merchants to stand in line with its influence. How can the goods be sold all over the world by the strength of the Mohist village alone." Wu Meiniang said with hatred. With the passage of time, more and more merchants choose to abandon the Mohist family, and the whole Mohist village seems to be an isolated island.


    Merton frowned and said, "how many people are there in Mojia village now."


    Wu Meiniang said proudly, "now the population of Mojia village has reached 6000, and the number of migrant workers has reached 40000. Plus the usual business trips, the daily population is at least 50000."


    "Fifty thousand!" Merton nodded. Sixty thousand people seem to be few to the million level Chang''an City, but it has exceeded 80% of the county of Datang. Unknowingly, the scale of Mojia village has reached this scale.


    "However, now the Mojia village is in trouble. The goods in the Mojia village can''t be sold, and more than 40000 people will also lose their livelihood." Xu Jie reluctantly said that as the foreign affairs manager of the Mojia village, the Mojia village has been frustrated repeatedly, which can be described as a mountain of pressure,


    "Master, in the court hall, she promised to deal with the hidden worries of the Mohist school before going to the battle and rush to Yumen. I think there must be a way to keep the Mohist village. Why should master test the little apprentice?" Wu Meiniang suddenly looked at Merton. As a teacher and apprentice for many years, she naturally knew that master must have a lot of cards before she said so.


    Merton gave Wu Meiniang a white look and said, "you''re right. Being a teacher is sure to keep the wealth of the Mohist village. Even if the Mohist family is defeated by the aristocratic family, it won''t come to a dead end and become a tool of the aristocratic family."


    "I''m stupid. Please give me some advice." Wu Meiniang asked for advice solemnly.


    Merton looked at the expectant eyes of the Mohists and nodded helplessly, "that''s real estate."


    "Real estate!" they frowned.


    Merton nodded and said, "since the brick road was opened, the house price in Chang''an City has more than doubled. It is everyone''s dream to have a suite in Chang''an city. However, this matter can be easily solved in the hands of the Mohists."


    "Ah! What the boss said is true!" Xu Jie looked up in surprise.


    Only Xu Jie can understand how difficult it is to buy a house in Chang''an city. At first, he lived in Mo mansion, mainly to prevent the retaliation of the king''s family. Now after so many years, Rao Shi served as the foreign affairs manager of Mo Village, and his monthly salary was at the top of Chang''an city. It took him a few years to buy a decent house in Chang''an City, not to mention ordinary people, Want to buy a house can be said to be far away.


    The Mohist family can really provide a large number of low-cost houses in Chang''an city. Xu Jie can guarantee that the Mohist village will surely have a lot of money and will no longer worry about money.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, there are few houses and many people in Chang''an city. If you want to provide as many houses as possible in limited space, you must build high-rise buildings, which is what the Mohists are good at."


    Xu Jie''s eyes lit up and said, "my boss, is it a house like the built women''s and children''s building?"


    Wu Mei Niang frowned and said, "the second floor of the women''s and children''s building is OK. The houses on the third and fourth floors are like bird cages. How can people live?"


    Xu Jie was beaming with joy and said: "Why can''t you live? Master Li Yun and master Li, who are in the same family as the husband, now eat and live on the fifth floor beside the Weishui river. As long as they can solve the problem of food and housing, I believe those who want to buy a house and want to be crazy in Chang''an city will not refuse. Moreover, if they want to build a high-rise building, they must use cement and steel, which happens to be under the control of the Mohist school. The Mohist school has materials and technology The policy is bound to succeed. There is no end to Mohism. "


    Once Mohism is involved in real estate, there will be a steady stream of money. Even if it is surrounded and suppressed by aristocratic families all over the world, Mohism will always stand in an invincible position.


    Wu Meiniang also figured out the key. Hearing the speech, she said with great joy: "Yes, now there is only one family living in an ordinary small courtyard in Chang''an city with a front door and a backyard. If we can build a new building in combination with the women''s and children''s building and Uncle Li''s accommodation, we can certainly increase the housing area on the same land by five times. At that time, Chang''an City alone can accommodate five million people. What a huge market it will be. At that time, my Mohist family will not be afraid of aristocratic families."


    Suddenly, the clouds in their hearts cleared away. As long as we follow Merton''s strategy, the Mojia village can gather countless wealth in a short time. I''m afraid we can''t compete with it even if we add up five surnames and seven hopes.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "this policy is the last life-saving policy of the Mohist school. It seems that money is rolling and delicious like icing sugar. However, for the Mohist school, it is arsenic wrapped in icing sugar. If the Mohist school gets involved in real estate, although it can get rich and tide over the crisis in a short time, it can only destroy the Mohist School in the end."


    "Master, what do you mean? According to the disciple''s conjecture, there are few houses and many people in the city. The construction of high-rise buildings must be the final trend of Chang''an city. The move of the Mohist school is just going with the trend!" Wu Meiniang didn''t understand.


    Merton shook his head and said, "building high-rise buildings can indeed build more houses in the least space. However, the prices of steel, cement, stone, sand and bricks are not low. Taken together, the final house price is not low. I''m afraid the upper family may have the money of the whole family before they can buy it. At that time, how much money do they have to buy the goods of the workshop?"


    "If everyone knows that the construction of new real estate makes money and a lot of money is invested in it, who will put money into hard-working workshops."


    Wu Meiniang was immediately poured with cold water. The workshop is not only the place of creation of Mohist ink technology, but also the place of experiment. If the goods of the workshop can not be sold, the workshop will surely close down. If everyone wants to make big money and fast money, who will invest money in a workshop with large investment and low return.


    Wu Meiniang knows that the development of ink technology needs a lot of money, and the workshop is the foundation for the application and improvement of ink technology. Once there are no countless workshops, the foundation on which Mohist school depends will be lost, and finally Mohist school can only be damaged.


    Xu Jie nodded slowly and said, "yes, once Chang''an City Daxing real estate, the talent introduction plan of Mojia village will be wasted. Although Mojia village is good, if you can live in Chang''an City, I''m afraid no one is willing to come to Mojia village."


    Merton nodded slowly and said, "therefore, before the critical moment of life and death, the Mohists will never prosper real estate. Even we have tried our best to delay the era of real estate prosperity. Real estate will harm the country and Mohists."


    Wu Meiniang did not understand: "but now is not the critical moment for the survival of Mohism?"


    Morton smiled and said, "you think master has only coaxed your little younger martial sister at home for the past three years. As a teacher, he has already practiced today''s situation in the sand table. Naturally, he has already prepared the way to break the situation."


    Wu Meiniang was shocked and respectfully said, "please give me some advice."


    "Or real estate!"


    "Ah!" Wu Meiniang couldn''t help but be shocked. Shifu just said that real estate was harmful to the country, but also to the Mohist school. In the twinkling of an eye, she also used real estate to break the situation.


    Merton explained: "arsenic is poisonous, but a small amount of arsenic can be fatal. The real estate mentioned by my teacher is not residential real estate, but commercial real estate. Now all merchants in the world avoid Mohism like snakes and scorpions. Mohism has no way of marketing. Mohism can''t be stuck by people again and again. It''s time to establish its own terminal channel."


    "Terminal channel!" Wu Meiniang didn''t understand.


    Merton nodded and said, "I call it a supermarket for short."

 Chapter 1025

    In the south city of Chang''an, there is a huge Mohist construction site, which has been under construction for more than two years. It covers an extremely large area and is surrounded tightly. Only batches of steel and stone materials come in and out, and the gate is always closed. Ordinary people can''t see it at all.


    "It''s said that this is the new residence built by mojiazi for Princess Changle, which has such a scale." a Chang''an citizen stood outside and looked at the five storey building in the construction site and smacked his tongue.


    "The Mohists really have deep love for the princess, and it is possible!" others echoed.


    "Mohism has fallen into a desperate situation, and Mohists are still so extravagant and licentious. It seems that the so-called revival of Mohism is just a flash in the pan!" a scribe couldn''t help but attack.


    "Otherwise, it is also rumored that this is the headquarters built by the Mohist School for doctors," others denied.


    "It''s also possible that mojiazi''s Hospital for women and children is a five story building. It''s reasonable to build another one for doctors." some people speculated.


    "No, there is also a rumor that Mohist Zi built shops to sell Mohist goods." a merchant gossip said.


    "Shops, who is willing to climb the fifth floor to buy things." people couldn''t help sneering. In a lot of speculation, only shops were abandoned first.


    However, when the construction site was completed step by step and the surrounding walls were removed, a beautiful five story building appeared in front of everyone.


    The huge ceramic tiles pasted on the outer wall set off against the inlaid blue glass. Coupled with the tall building body, it exudes an irresistible temptation. In Chang''an city with common wooden buildings and tile houses, it is simply standing out from the crowd.


    "There is no wall. This must not be the residence of Princess Changle."


    "It''s not the headquarters of doctors. My relatives are in Mexico hospital. There are no rumors in this regard."


    "Is it really a shop built by mojiazi!"


    People smacked their tongue one after another. Such a magnificent five storey building can''t be called a shop or a mall.


    At the time of heated discussion in the whole city and divergent opinions, Mojia village did not let people spend more time, and soon had a new action. When five huge characters stood proudly at the top of high-rise buildings, it completely detonated the whole Chang''an city.


    "Mohist mechanism city!"


    These five characters are not only clearly visible in the daytime, but also reflected by the fire light of the Mohist school at night. With special materials, the five characters glitter and can be seen all over the city.


    "Mohist mechanism City, according to legend, is the holy land of Mohism."


    At this moment, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation. One by one, they looked up at the five people with magic auras.


    "Mohist mechanism City, what does Mohist mean?" Zheng Chang frowned as night fell, looking at the luminous characters clearly visible in the distance.


    The family members are the most concerned about Merton''s every move. When the name of the Mohist mechanism city was just put up, it immediately affected the family''s mind.


    Zheng''s family leader looked at the five luminous characters in the distance and couldn''t help sighing that the Mohist son was really difficult. Only one name had attracted the attention of the whole city. He sighed: "the Mohist mechanism city is the Holy Land in Mohist legends. Whether it exists remains to be assessed."


    "It is said that the Mohist mechanism city was built by the great masters of all ages. It is the ultimate hiding place of Mohism. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is full of endless mechanisms. Mohist Zi moved the Mohist mechanism city to Chang''an city. Is it because he wants to build a City in the city?" Xiao Rui is much better than Zheng open, who is ignorant and unskilled, Naturally, I know the mysterious legend of Mohist mechanism city.


    Xiao Yu said with a heavy face: "the Mohist school has been under our eyes for more than two years, and we didn''t realize it at all. No matter what the purpose of the Mohist mechanism city is, it''s enough to see that the building must use the most advanced mechanism technology of the Mohist school."


    The reason why Mohist Zi can resist the aristocratic family for so long is that he relies on the emerging ink skills. Now that the aristocratic family is united, Mohist has been ambushed by all sides. However, Mohist Zi has gathered the most advanced mechanism skills of Mohist and prepared to build a Mohist mechanism city to resist the aristocratic family. How can it not make all aristocratic families concentrate on it.


    "Yes, the Mohist family has always acted in an unrestrained manner, but it is impossible to prevent it. The Mohist family''s move must have deep meaning!" Xiao Rui said anxiously. When he saw the sand table, he already had bad ideas in his heart. Now the Mohist machine pass city that Mohist family began to build two years ago just confirmed his guess.


    At the ink magazine station, Tian Mou looked at the Mohist organ city in the distance, and then looked at the front page headlines already printed in his hand. The amazing Mohist ink skills introduced above couldn''t help sighing.


    According to the records of Xiangfu family, the so-called Mohist mechanism city is highly praised, but no one can confirm the existence of Mohist mechanism city. Although the mechanism city built by Mohist Zi today is not as mysterious as the mechanism city in Mohist legend, the ink technology used is better than blue, It also benefits the people with ink skills used in war.


    "Tomorrow, the real mechanism city of Mohism will really appear." Tian Mou was excited and couldn''t help himself. From then on, the greatest pride of Mohism, Mohist mechanism City, will no longer be a legend in historical books, but will appear in the Tang Dynasty in another form to revive the reputation of Mohism.


    Not only is Xiangfu''s pulse like this, all the Mohist children can''t help looking at the five words above Chang''an city. The Mohist mechanism city is the greatest pride of Mohism, and now the name that makes Mohism proud appears above Chang''an City for the first time.


    No one doubts that mojiazi will steal the beam and abuse the reputation of the Mojia mechanism city. Everyone looks forward to tomorrow. They believe that the Mojia mechanism city built by mojiazi will reproduce the legendary magic and shock the world.


    This night, the Confucius family and the public loser were equally sleepless. The legendary Mohist mechanism City reappeared, putting great pressure on the two families.


    Peers are enemies. As a peer of Mohism for thousands of years, gonglosers can be said to have been confident that they do not belong to Mohism, and strive to catch up with Mohism and want to compete with Mohism.


    However, after the emergence of the five words of Mohist mechanism City, the public losers suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Compared with the strong foundation and rapid momentum of Mohism, the public losers were indeed somewhat dwarfed.


    For a long time, the development of Mohism has been able to make repeated blows, but always forge ahead bravely, while the public losers have been enjoying the wind and water, but their reputation has not been obvious. As soon as they advance and retreat, the public losers are naturally quite helpless.


    In the Kong family, Kong Yingda and Kong Desheng stand together and look at the five dazzling characters not far away. If Mohism and gongloser are peer enemies, while Confucianism and Mohism love each other and kill each other, their ideas and foundations can be said to be diametrically opposed. They have been fighting for thousands of years.


    "The world''s aristocratic families are fierce and powerful. They can''t compete with them. Naturally, the Mohist family knows that they are invincible. They should build such a large-scale Mohist mechanism city to defend each other. I believe that this must be the strategy of the Mohist family to break the situation." Kong Desheng sighed.


    Kong Yingda nodded: "It is well known that Mohism is good at defending. In a war, as long as there is a Mohist mechanism City, Mohism can certainly defend several times the enemy. Now Mohism moves the Mohist mechanism city into Chang''an City, which is supposed to defend against the attack of aristocratic families all over the world. This time, the world thinks that Mohism is not against aristocratic families, and once the Mohist mechanism city comes out, I''m afraid it will be difficult to predict the victory or defeat! As far as I know, Mohism is the same There are all kinds of construction sites in Luoyang and other cities. Once the Mohist mechanism city opens all over the Tang Dynasty, Mohism will certainly become the real opponent of Confucianism. "


    Kong Desheng smiled and said, "so what? Doctors have hospitals, Mohists have the opportunity to close the city, and my Kong family has thousands of libraries. That''s the real foundation of my Kong family."


    The library gives free reading to students all over the world, benefiting the world. People who study all over the world are naturally grateful to the Confucius family. Compared with the doctor''s Hospital and the Mohist organ City, the Confucian libraries all over the Tang Dynasty can be called high-quality and cheap, and have already occupied an advantage.


    Kong Yingda nodded and couldn''t help but feel a little lucky. If Confucianism didn''t have a library in hand, it would be caught off guard in the face of the sudden emergence of the Mohist organ city. Now Confucianism has taken the lead. I also want to see whether the so-called Mohist organ city is worthy of its name.

 Chapter 1026

    "The second day!"


    When the news of the opening of the Mohist organ city was published on the front page of the new issue of Mohist magazine, the whole people of Chang''an immediately poured in.


    For the people of Chang''an, the Mohist family is the pride of Chang''an city. Every time the Mohist family makes something new, it doesn''t disappoint the people of Chang''an. Now the legendary Mohist mechanism city has aroused the curiosity of countless Chang''an people. They come from all directions to witness the legendary Mohist mechanism city.


    "This is the mechanism city built by the Mohist school. It covers such a large area!" the people of Chang''an were stunned by Merton''s great pen as soon as they arrived at the Mohist mechanism city. The first thing they saw was a large open space full of green trees and flowers, and there were many empty spaces on both sides for carriage parking,


    In Chang''an City, where there is an inch of land and an inch of gold, it is a luxury for Mohists to use these lands as ornaments alone.


    "Black sheep! Mojia Zi really deserves this title." many citizens are distressed. First, so much land itself is a huge wealth, and Mojia Zi has left it vacant for decoration or parking by tying horses. It is a waste.


    "However, I like the great work of Mohist. Chang''an city is too crowded and there is no place for cars and horses to park. Especially in the East and west of Chang''an City, it is very congested and coveted by thousands of people. The Mohist organ city not only has enough parking spaces for tying horses, but also has special people to take care of it. It is extremely convenient."


    A citizen quite appreciates the black sheep behavior of mojiazi. There is no other way, but there are too few parking spaces in Chang''an city.


    "Artificial fountain!"


    "Artificial rainbow."


    They settled their cars and horses and came to the Mohist mechanism city. Finally, they met the first Mohist mechanism, an artificial fountain. A stream of water was directly sprayed into the air from the ground. With the strength exhausted, it turned into countless drops of water, and the water mist fell on the ground and tourists.


    However, as the sun shines on the water mist, a curved rainbow always lingers above the fountain, which makes people couldn''t help being amazed.


    Merton''s artificial rainbow moved from the ink technology exhibition, and made the artificial rainbow exist for a long time. It suddenly attracted everyone''s attention and made a good start.


    "If you want to see the rainbow in the future, you don''t have to go to the ink technology exhibition anymore," a young man in a wheelchair sighed when he saw the rainbow hanging in the air.


    "Brother Li doesn''t feel well. Why take the risk to come in person." Zu Mingjun looked at Li Yun sitting in the chair and advised him.


    Li Yun shoulders the heavy responsibility of building the Weishui bridge. If there is a mistake, I''m afraid the consequences will be unpredictable.


    Li Yun shook his head indifferently and said, "the legendary mechanism city of Mohism is in Chang''an city. How can Li, as a child of Mohism, sit still? Whether brother Mo''s move is to improve the mechanism city or borrow the reputation of Mohist mechanism City, Li must come in person."


    Of course, they know that Merton can''t move the legendary Mohist mechanism city into Chang''an City, but it can be imagined that the Mohist mechanism city built by Mohist village in two years must carry the most advanced ink technology of Mohist village, which is a temptation that Li Yun can''t refuse.


    Zu Mingjun nodded. In his heart, he was very curious. Merton dared to use the five big characters of Mohist mechanism City, which surely wouldn''t be aimless.


    They came to the five story building with the flow of people, but they saw that mojiazi abandoned the traditional door and directly used glass as the door.


    "Brother Mo is a big hand! There are no wooden tiles in the whole building. They are all reinforced retarded concrete and inlaid glass. Each one is expensive!" Zu Mingjun sighed.


    Even these materials can be made in Mojia village, and the cost of so much labor and materials is astronomical.


    "Take glass as the door! Mojiazi is indeed a commercial genius!" the merchants who came to visit saw Merton''s all glass doors and windows. The most important thing in business is to show the goods to the guests. However, most of the shops are surrounded by wooden doors and brick walls. Only the opening of the door can be shown to the guests.


    However, if glass is used as doors and windows, guests can not only see the goods in the store on the street, but also have a more important advantage, that is, daylighting. The sun can be directly emitted from the outside to the house, and the whole room will be like day.


    Sure enough, when people stepped into the glass door, they saw that the indoor space was very broad, but there was no darkness at all. It was quite bright like day, and all the scenes were clearly visible.


    "In addition to the wonderful use of glass, I''m afraid the ceramic tiles under our feet are also indispensable." Li Yun saw the smooth jade like ceramic tiles under his feet and saw Merton''s design at a glance.


    "Although we don''t know brother Mo''s plan, there is no doubt that brother Mo has used the best materials in the world in the mechanism city." Zu Mingjun said that ceramic tiles are valuable. Merton laid the whole Mohist mechanism city with ceramic tiles, which can be said to be extremely luxurious. Of course, the effect is also excellent, The superimposed effect of glass and ceramic tiles immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Brother Mo named it the Mojia mechanism city. The novel materials are only one of them, and the most important thing is the ink technology contained in these new materials." Li Yun took a deep breath and looked up to see the circular glass dome on the fifth floor of the center of the building. He saw the sunlight directly on the dome and reflected by a mirror to each floor. This is the huge building, But still as bright as day.


    Moreover, from his perspective, it can be seen that the glass dome of Mojia village is extremely exquisite. No matter where the sun is, it can ensure the brightness of the whole building. It is the peak of the application of Mojia optical ink technology.


    Zu Mingjun nodded and said, "compared with the glass dome, my younger brother prefers the escalator in front of me. Brother Li lives on the fifth floor. My younger brother climbs up and down the fifth floor every day, but he is very tired."


    Zu Mingjun looked at an escalator where two people stood side by side. However, it was amazing that these escalators did not need people to crawl, but could automatically cycle back and forth. People who came to visit could automatically rise to the second floor just by standing on the escalator, which was a blessing for Zu Mingjun who was suffering from climbing.


    "It is said that the Mohist mechanism city is hidden in the mountains, and ordinary people can''t find it at all. The children of Mohism often need a basket to get in and out, and the escalator designed by Merton is better. People can go straight to the fifth floor just by standing on the escalator. If Li is right, there must be another floor under this floor, which is full of mechanisms, so that the escalator can be loaded There are so many people, but the operation has not stopped at all. "Li Yun saw the mysterious path of the escalator at a glance.


    "Maybe there''s a mechanism on the top floor. After all, in addition to the escalator on the fifth floor, there''s an escalator similar to that in the women''s and children''s hospital. My younger brother thinks it''s better to install such an escalator. In this way, it''s quite convenient for brother Li to go upstairs and downstairs." Zu Mingjun immediately changed his mind when he saw the escalator on the side.


    "Stairs, escalators, escalators! In the future, the stairs are not out of the right, and brother Mo is really talented." Li Yun couldn''t help praising that Merton''s move has improved the way people go upstairs and downstairs, not to mention the fifth floor, even the tenth and twentieth floors, can make people walk on the ground. This technology has surpassed the legendary mechanism City entry mechanism.


    Although it was quite convenient to go upstairs, they did not hurry upstairs, but continued to observe on the first floor and found one ink technique after another that surprised them.


    Heating pipes are everywhere. It is conceivable that even in winter, it is as warm as spring. In addition, there are toilets on each floor, toilet seats using the siphon principle, and faucets that can water out when turned,


    "Where is the toilet? It''s better than where people live. The toilets are paved with ceramic tiles, the toilets are all porcelain, and the faucets are copper-plated. The Mohist is worthy of the title of a black sheep." the voice of the public transport wheel suddenly smacked his tongue.


    "What''s a black sheep? Some universities here ask. The copper plating of the faucet is to prevent rust, and the tiling of the toilet is to clean easily. The toilet with siphon effect is the key. So many people come and go to the Mohist mechanism city every day. If it''s like an ordinary toilet, wouldn''t it be stinking in less than three days? There must be no one here." Gongshu Hongning said again.


    "Moreover, Mozi directly covered the fifth floor with water pipes. In case of fire, you can easily put out the fire. In addition, my nephew just found that each floor was divided into several areas by Mozi with fire curtains, with fire alarm bells and escape passages on the outer wall. The wall is concrete and glass. Even if it is deliberate arson, it is in vain in the Mozi organ city." gongshuhao exclaimed. In the inheritance of the public losers, they have the records of the central pool in the Mohist organ City, and have envisaged various solutions, but they did not expect that the Mohist son should use the central pool to such an extent.


    "The public losers are really knowledgeable!" with Li Yun''s voice, Zu Mingjun pushed Li Yun and met them in the toilet.


    The two sides looked at each other and immediately understood that their purpose was the same. They all came to see if the Mohist mechanism city built by the Mohist family was worthy of its name.


    "It was originally made by craftsman Li and Mr. Zu. Craftsman Li''s work is one of the three veins of Mohism. I don''t know how I feel about the Mohist mechanism city built by Marquis Mo, and whether it is worthy of the name compared with the legend." Gong Shuhong''s eyes flashed.


    Li Yun said with a smile: "The mechanism City handed down by the Mohists through the ages is the last pure land of the Mohists to avoid war preparation. Naturally, it is full of mechanisms, while the mechanism city built by brother Mo is for civil use. Over time, it will certainly be able to promote the world. Moreover, even disabled people such as Li can move freely in the mechanism City, which is more in line with normal people. This Mohist mechanism city deserves it."


    The public losers nodded slowly. They felt deeply when they were in it. There were the strongest walls, adequate lighting and ventilation system and free access elevators. Maybe ink skills were nothing, but Mohists applied ink skills comprehensively in this big building city.


    This epoch-making building carrying the joint cooperation of Mohist ink technology can be said to be a well deserved organ city.

 Chapter 1027

    For Li Yun and others, what they marvel at is the ink technology used by Merton in this building, while for aristocratic families, they are more concerned about the use of the Mohist mechanism city.


    "What Mozi built was a shop!" the aristocratic families said in disbelief when they saw a wide range of goods in the mechanism city.


    They never thought that the Mohist family would transform the legendary Mohist mechanism city into a commercial city, and specialize in selling their own goods in the Mohist village.


    With the huge influence and strength of the five surnames and seven hopes, the whole business circles of the Tang Dynasty avoided the Mohists like snakes and scorpions, but who would have thought that the Mohists abandoned cooperation with other businesses and built their own shops instead. No, it should be a mall.


    Looking at such a large Mohist mechanism City, Zheng''s father and son couldn''t help taking a breath. Ordinary shops are just a store, and the mechanism city built by Mohist son has only one floor, which is enough to cover the area of hundreds of stores, and it has five floors.


    "The Mohist school has created a new south city outside the East and West cities!" murmured the master of the Zheng family.


    The eastern and western cities are the most prosperous markets in Chang''an city. However, once the Mohist organ city came out, it was no different. Although the scale is not as good as the eastern and western cities, the Mohist organ city is much more advanced than the eastern and western cities in terms of design concept and future potential.


    Even if Zheng''s master and Mohist stood on the opposite side, he had to admit that the future mall must take Mohist mechanism city as the model. This time, Mohist came to the forefront of the times and took the lead.


    Zheng''s open eyebrow frowned and said, "so, the Mexican family wants to build their own sales channels."


    Naturally, the world''s large businessmen would not be willing to offend the world aristocratic family for the sake of the Mohist family. He thought that the Mohist family was desperate, but he didn''t expect that the Mohist family was ambitious and built their own mall to sell their goods.


    Zheng family leader took a deep breath: "not only that, the reason why businessmen all over the world are unwilling to offend the aristocratic family for the Mohist family is that the aristocratic families control the sales channels all over the world, and the gains outweigh the losses. As soon as the Mohist mechanism city came out, the situation reversed. Now it is not that the Mohist family needs businessmen to sell, but a group of businessmen are asking to enter the Mohist mechanism city to sell goods."


    Zheng''s family leader looked at the crowds of Chang''an people in the city of Mohist organs. Everyone who came out was shocked and full of harvest.


    "Mozi doesn''t really want to rely on a mall to compete with the aristocratic families in the world!" Zheng Chang disagreed. The aristocratic families in the world are so huge and spread all over the world. It''s just wishful thinking for Mozi to break the blockade of the aristocratic family by relying on a Mozi mechanism City alone.


    The master of the Zheng family said with a frozen face: "A Mohist mechanism city is enough for Mohism to run rampant. According to the investigation of the aristocratic family, the Mohist mechanism city in Luoyang has been nearly completed, and several Mohist mechanism cities in other places are under construction. Even as my father can imagine, there must be many other cities under layout. Once the layout of the Mohist family is completed, the Mohist family will be the tiger roaring mountain forest, the Dragon entering the sea, and the aristocratic family will no longer control it Mohist means. "


    It has to be said that the Mohist family has technology and workshops. The only means of the aristocratic family is to control the market. Now that the Mohist family has a mechanism City, it has its own sales channel. This move of the Mohist family just makes up for its shortcomings.


    "Tell my Lord, the villain has found out that the goods in the mechanism city are very popular because their price is very low." Zheng Chang hurriedly reported with a panic on his face.


    "The price is extremely low! The Mohists spent a lot of money to build the mechanism city. The price must be increased by 35%, otherwise how can we get back to the capital." Zheng Chang said inconceivably. Anyone who sees such a magnificent mall will think that the goods inside are valuable. However, who could have thought that the Mohists did the opposite and reduced the price instead of raising the price.


    Zheng Bo said bitterly, "back to young master, Mohist goods always leave 40% profit for merchants. Now Mohist Zi gives up merchants and sells goods in Mohist mechanism city. Its price is reduced by 20%, but he makes more money."


    The Zheng family leader on one side couldn''t help but eyebrow and said, "the goods in Mojia village will be reduced by another 20%, isn''t it similar to the price of the goods in the aristocratic family workshop?"


    Zheng Bo said helplessly: "indeed, the Mohist village itself has a good reputation, and the quality of goods is slightly better than the aristocratic family. We can compete directly with Mohist only when the price is 20% lower. Now the price of Mohist boutique goods is close to ours, so it is not difficult for people to choose."


    The Zheng family leader''s face is ugly. In this way, the price war they are proud of may not be effective. Watching the people of Chang''an pouring into the Mohist mechanism City, I''m afraid even the eastern and western cities can''t compare with it. Even at a low price, the Mohist village can live very well.


    What worries him even more is that the popularity of the Mohist mechanism city is a fatal temptation for merchants. The move of the Mohist son can not only make his goods sell well, but also break through the blockade of the aristocratic family. Those mercenary businessmen will not cooperate with the Mohist without benefits. However, the Mohist mechanism city can bring them great benefits At this time, there will naturally be desperate people to cooperate with the Mohist school.


    It is well-known that Mohism is good at guarding this. Zheng''s family leader has always believed that this is just that Mohism is good at guarding militarily. However, he did not expect that Mohism is also good at guarding it economically.


    Five surnames and seven hopes are under such strong pressure, but they are guarded by the Mohist family again and again. This time, the world aristocratic family takes the lead in encircling and suppressing the Mohist family. Everyone thinks that the Mohist family must be doomed this time, but who ever thought that the Mohist family has stubbornly improved the legendary organ city of the Mohist family and let the world aristocratic family return without success again.


    Perhaps the power of aristocratic families in the world is enormous, but the Mohist mechanism city is in an invincible position.


    "Supermarket!"


    "This is what master called the supermarket market!"


    In the control room of the mechanism City, Wu Meiniang looked at the crowded crowd in the mechanism city and couldn''t help admiring it. This grand occasion can be comparable to the East and West cities, and it is completely in the hands of the Mohists.


    There are the most complete goods here. Every kind of goods is genuine. The Mohist School promises to pay ten for one fake: there is the most favorable price here, and all prices are clearly marked. Children and old people are not deceived: there is a more beautiful and comfortable shopping environment. Both dignitaries and ordinary people can enjoy the best high-quality services. Everyone who comes to the Mohist mechanism city is convinced by it.


    "Elder martial sister, the department store on the second floor has begun to run out of goods." a Mohist boy came to report with a sweat.


    Wu Meiniang raised her eyebrows. You know, today is the first day of the supermarket. All the shelves are full. It''s only an hour that there has been a shortage of goods.


    "Don''t worry, master has expected this for a long time, has made sufficient stock, and immediately put the stock on the shelf, so as not to disappoint the people." Wu Meiniang ordered in an orderly manner.


    "Yes!" the children of Mohism took orders.


    "Eldest martial sister, just now a merchant came to inquire about the price of renting shops in the organ city." another Mohist boy came to report again.


    Wu Meiniang could not help but raise her mouth. These merchants were indeed mercenaries. At the time of Mohist crisis, these merchants were afraid of any involvement with Mohist village. Now they see the business opportunities of Mohist mechanism city and can''t wait to come forward.


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help showing a trace of pride and said, "go and tell those merchants that the rent of Mohist mechanism city is not high, but it must be drawn into 10% of the turnover."


    "10% turnover!" many merchants who came to inquire couldn''t help but be in an uproar. They didn''t expect that there was not only rent, but also bonus. They couldn''t help flinching one after another.


    Wu Meiniang was not moved when she saw the merchants retreating one after another. She looked at the sea of people in the supermarket. After today, these merchants will surely come here again.


    On the first day of the opening of the Mohist mechanism City, it was only three hours. Because the goods were sold out, it had to close down. Then a more popular news spread. The turnover of the Mohist mechanism city on the first day reached 3000 yuan! "


    "Three thousand passes a day! Isn''t that a million passes a year?"


    "The Mohist mechanism city is a monster that devours gold."


    As soon as the news came out, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation.

 Chapter 1028

    What is the level of million Guan? I''m afraid the tax of a county in a year is no more than that, and the mojiazi can reach it only with the Mojia organ City covering an area of no more than a few acres.


    As for the millions of current silver, looking at the whole Tang Dynasty, I''m afraid that only the bank and treasury of Mojia village have such a large amount. If Mojia Zi doesn''t make a move, it will be a million. Once again, it didn''t disappoint the people of Chang''an City and shouted brilliance one after another.


    "This is the mojiazi, who has made many miracles. Even if the world thinks he has run out of money, he can be reborn every time." the whole Chang''an city can''t help but marvel at Merton''s great skill and even Merton''s magical means.


    The Mohist school built the Mohist School mechanism city so beautifully that everyone thought it was a loser. Such a good building and the goods inside were so cheap that they would lose money. Finally, they found that they were real fools compared with Mohist school. The annual turnover of millions, even 20% of the profits, was also a terrible figure.


    People often think that they have estimated Mohist Zi to the greatest extent, but Mohist Zi will surprise them every time.


    "This city is worthy of the name of Mohist mechanism city!" a scribe praised the five characters of Mohist mechanism city in the sky.


    This time, no one refuted that the Mohist mechanism city designed by Merton not only has magical ink skills, but also its own design plays a magical role. It is said that the Mohist holy land, which lives in seclusion in the mountains and no one has a chance to see, has been moved by the Mohist family to the most prosperous city in the world. Although it has no powerful lethal weapons, it has more benefits for the convenience and benefit of the people, It has not only become a cornucopia of Mojia village, but also a fortress for the defense of aristocratic families in Mojia village.


    In a sense, the defense of this mechanism city is not inferior to that of the legendary mechanism city. As long as this city exists, Mojia village in Chang''an city will be invincible.


    On the second day, the legend of the Mohist organ city continued. With sufficient supply and a sharp increase in reputation, the one-day sales reached a new high and directly climbed to 3500 yuan.


    In the following days, although the sales of Mohist organ city decreased, it remained stable at more than 2000 yuan per day. There was even a popular saying in Chang''an city; "Shopping, go to Nanshi!".


    Although this achievement is slightly inferior to that of the eastern and western cities, the floor areas of the three places are also very different. The Mohist organ city has created the greatest value in the smallest space, which stands out in the Chang''an city with an inch of land and an inch of gold.


    The merchants in Chang''an city are greatly stimulated. Nearly one million big cakes are placed in front of them every year. The so-called ban of aristocratic families tells them that it is no longer an obstacle. As for the Commission of 10% of turnover, it is not a problem. For a moment, the major merchants in Chang''an City have settled in the Mohist organ City, which has added three points to the fame of the Mohist organ city.


    On this basis, Mohist village announced that it would launch the "ten roads and ten cities plan", that is, to build a Mohist organ city in the capital of each of the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty, so as to build an ecological chain of Mohism.


    "Ecological chain?"


    In the palace, Li Shimin couldn''t help but frown. He was also familiar with the new words that often pop up in the mouth of Mohists, but he couldn''t help asking curiously when he heard the word ecological chain for the first time.


    "Er!"


    Merton paused, looked at Li Tai, king of Wei, and said, "this word evolved from the investigation of mausu desert by Mohism and geography."


    "Tell me!"


    Li Shimin has seen Li Taidao, who has been running for more than half of the Tang Dynasty in recent years and has already lost a lot of weight.


    Li Taidao: "The reason why Mohist and children investigated that the Mu Us Desert spread so fast is that the local ecological chain was broken. The ecological chain can also be called the biological chain, or the food chain. On the grassland, green plants are the food of herbivores, herbivores are the food of carnivores, and some small carnivores are the food of large carnivores Through natural evolution, a delicate ecological balance will be formed. "


    "For example, grass is eaten by rabbits and mice, while snakes eat mice, foxes eat rabbits and mice, and eagles eat rabbits, snakes and mice, etc. the feces and bodies of these animals will nourish the vigorous growth of grass and make herbivores have enough food. This cycle is like a chain. This is the ecological chain."


    "One drink and one peck have their own destiny. I didn''t expect that nature also has Taoist nature and Buddhist cause and effect." Li Shimin sighed.


    Li Tai nodded and said: "Yes, not only that, these food chains are indispensable. If there are fewer eagles, rabbits and mice will flood. They will dig holes everywhere in the grassland and eventually destroy the grassland. If there are fewer rabbits and mice, foxes, snakes and eagles will lack food and their number will decrease sharply. Finally, the number of animals on the grassland will exist in a balanced number. This is Magical ecological chain. "


    "A little like Sangji fish pond!" Li Shimin suddenly realized.


    Merton nodded: "Sangji fish pond is the simplest ecological chain, but the ecological chain on the grassland is extremely complex. Your majesty can imagine that we are regarded as sinister, cunning and cruel wolves, but they are an indispensable part of the grassland. Once the wolves are reduced on a large scale, the flooded rabbits and mice can gnaw the whole grassland and eventually destroy this grassland."


    "It seems that one of the most correct things I will do is to award millions of hectares of desert to Mosha. The Mosha stayed in the desert for three years. They not only greened thousands of hectares of desert, but also developed amazing knowledge such as sand table and ecological chain." Li Shimin sighed.


    It is often said that gold will always shine. How many people in this world control the superior conditions, rich resources and the most suitable life. In the end, they do nothing. Even in the desert, the Mohist school can shine like gold, which really makes Li Shimin look at it.


    Morton modestly said: "Your Majesty flattered me. After seeing the grassland ecological chain, Wei Chen was greatly touched and determined to build an industrial ecological chain belonging to Mohist village. Mohist mechanism city is the most important link of Mohist ecological chain. Mohist has a R & D department and the most advanced workshop in the world. From then on, the goods produced by the workshop can also be sold directly in Mohist mechanism City, and the profits can continue Invest in the research and development of ink technology. In this way, Mojia village will form a benign ecological chain and will no longer be controlled by others. "


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "the Mohist mechanism city is enough for Mohists to attack and retreat. If not expected, with the establishment of Mohist mechanism cities one by one, Mohists must be the last party in the fight between Mohists and aristocrats."


    Anyone can see that the Mohists who own the Mohist mechanism city will eventually break the blockade of the aristocratic family. However, it took two years for Merton to build a Mohist mechanism city. If ten more mechanism cities are built, it will take several years.


    Merton will solve the worries of the Mohists before the western expedition in March next year. I''m afraid there''s not enough time in these months.

 Chapter 1029

    "We''ve lost!" Zheng Chang''s face was hard to tell. He didn''t know whether he was happy or depressed. When he presided over the siege of the Mojia village, he often felt this frustration. Now his father took the initiative himself and gathered the power of the world''s aristocratic families. It can be said that he was threatening, but he still had nothing to do with the Mojia son, which made him not so incompetent, but the Mojia son was too rebellious.


    Facing the powerful offensive of the aristocratic family, the MOH family adopted the strongest tactics of human defense and defended the city.


    In the history of mankind, the city wall is the oldest and most powerful defense tactic of mankind. From a simple earth enclosure, it gradually evolved into a rammed earth city wall, and finally into a brick wall. With the continuous increase in width, length and height, its defense power naturally doubled. What''s more, there were miraculous buildings such as the Great Wall, It''s the ultimate application of wall defense.


    There are too many wars on the city wall, and the pattern in history has been rewritten many times because of the city wall. There are countless examples of using the city wall to win more with less. The legendary Mohist mechanism city has many mechanisms. It is praised by the world for its super defense and is known as a city that will never be broken.


    Although the Mohist mechanism City forged by Mohist Zi is not used for actual combat, Mohist Zi uses it for commercial warfare, and its power is not inferior, which makes his family ten times stronger than his family helpless.


    "No, we haven''t lost yet." the Zheng family leader shook his head firmly.


    "Father, now in the court, we are waiting for Mojia Zi to lead the firearms supervisor to Gaochang. We can''t directly target Mojia village. Now Mojia Zi has the help of Mojia mechanism City, and many merchants in Chang''an City have turned to Mojia." Zheng Chang was helpless.


    Under the huge benefits, some merchants no longer care about the aristocratic family, or openly or secretly surrender to the Mohist family and seize the high-quality shops in the Mohist mechanism city. Wu Meiniang is even more punctual. In some goods that are highly competitive with the aristocratic family, they are sold at parity or even at zero profit. This loss is nothing to the Mohist mechanism City, but it makes the workshops of the aristocratic family miserable, For a while, the attack and defense of Mohism and aristocratic families in Chang''an city changed, and Mohism soon gained the upper hand.


    "A Mohist mechanism City radiates only half of Chang''an city. The East and West cities are still under our control, not to mention the world of aristocratic families outside Chang''an. After the ten roads and ten cities of Mohism have not been completed, the workshop can still draw wealth for the aristocratic family. From the book point of view, the aristocratic family still occupies an absolute advantage, how can we easily admit defeat." The master of the Zheng family proudly said.


    Yes, from the book, the world workshop can still earn a steady stream of wealth for the aristocratic family, and the million turnover of the Mohist mechanism city is only a small part. The aristocratic family can bear the loss.


    "But then we still have no way to take the Mohist mechanism city. We can only watch the Mohist grow step by step." Zheng Chang knows that the Mohist is growing stronger and stronger, but the aristocratic family is helpless. This feeling is really uncomfortable.


    Zheng''s master shook his head and sneered, "that''s because you were frightened by Mohist. Did you ever think that since the effect of Mohist mechanism city is so good, why did Mohist announce the plan of establishing ten roads and ten cities instead of the plan of 100 cities?"


    Zheng Chang was stunned. Yes, isn''t the hundred cities plan better? In this way, the Mohist school will benefit more.


    "What my father said is the cost." Zheng Zhang moved in his heart and said cautiously.


    Zheng''s master nodded and said, "yes, the Mohist mechanism city is indeed a cornucopia of daily gold. However, the reason why the cornucopia can gather treasure is also a rare treasure and of great value."


    Zheng Kuang nodded. The raw materials of the Mohist mechanism city are valuable building materials. It needs to be hard to make iron. I''m afraid the effectiveness of the Mohist mechanism city is also stacked with silver ingots.


    "Although many materials are self-produced by Mohist village, the cost of a Mohist mechanism city is also an astronomical figure, not to mention the long construction cycle. It takes Mohist at least ten years to build these ten Mohist mechanism cities alone. We are now frightened by Mohist ten years later, which makes people laugh." Leng hum, the master of Zheng''s family.


    "What if Mohism continues to expand in ten years?" Zheng Chang said anxiously.


    Zheng''s family leader sneered: "the cost of Mohist mechanism city is amazing. What can accommodate Mohist mechanism city in the world is only ten County cities in the world. If it is an ordinary small county, I''m afraid Mohist village can''t recover the cost for hundreds of years. Ten Mohist mechanism cities are just enough for Mohist village to protect itself. It''s wishful thinking to defeat aristocratic families."


    "So, the Mohist family can''t afford the aristocratic family, and the aristocratic family can''t afford the Mohist family. The Mohist family and the aristocratic family have been fighting all their lives." Zheng Zhang suddenly said in his heart.


    Zheng''s family leader smiled bitterly and said, "a draw is indeed a draw. However, we have gathered the strength of the world''s aristocratic families, while the Mohist family is just the strength of a village, but we have no way to win him. We say that a draw is a disastrous defeat for us. It''s just a good face!"


    "What should the aristocratic family do next now!" Zheng Chang asked.


    "We don''t have to do anything about how to act. Today''s aristocratic family still has an absolute advantage and uses ink technology to make a lot of profits. The Mohist family just has a Mohist mechanism city. It has more than defense, but the attack is weak, so it can''t pose a great threat to the aristocratic family." Zheng''s family leader took a deep breath, and he admitted that he had some startled birds, Every time he targets the Mohist village, he will only make the Mohist village stronger. In his heart, he has been afraid of the Mohist family. If the aristocratic family goes against the Mohist family again, he doesn''t know how far the Mohist village will grow. Now he just wants to keep the existing interests of the aristocratic family.


    "But how about the other six looks!" Zheng Chang frowned.


    "Not only do you think so for your husband, but also for the other six Wangs. Besides being good at using your power, compromise is also one of the ways for the family to survive. I think it''s time for the five surnames and seven Wangs to reconcile with the Mozi." the master of the Zheng family made an important decision.


    "Reconciliation?" Zheng Chang involuntarily raised his voice. For three years, he has been against Mohist Zi, but now he suddenly wants to reconcile with Mohist Zi, which he can''t accept.


    "But does the Mo family agree to reconcile?" Zheng Chang frowned.


    Zheng''s family leader said confidently: "the Mohist family once said that there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests. At this point, I believe the Mohist family knows better than anyone. Compared with the interests between the aristocratic family and the Mohist family, the previous small misunderstanding is nothing at all. If the Mohist family is willing, the aristocratic family can share the world''s folk commercial interests with him."


    "Sharing private commercial interests!" Zheng Chang could not help breathing. The interests at the top of the business pyramid of the Tang Dynasty have always been the forbidden land of the great aristocratic family. Now he wants to share them with the Mohist family. It can be imagined how much concessions five surnames and seven hopes have made.

 Chapter 1030

    The continued popularity of the Mohist mechanism city finally brought an end to the three-year business war between the Mohist and aristocratic families, and the business circles of the whole Chang''an city finally recovered their long lost calm.


    It was originally thought that after the business was calm, there was no need to survive in the cracks. However, the merchants in Chang''an city sadly found that the business environment had not improved at all. In this three-year business war, the aristocratic family seized the largest share of the market. Mojia village overcame many difficulties and finally held the market, but the ordinary workshop was really injured, Its market share has been very small.


    The fire in the city gate affected the fish in the pond, the eldest and second fought, and the third and fourth suffered. Many workshops have been operating at a loss, and it has been difficult to sustain up to now.


    However, none of this can affect the good mood of the Zheng family leader. With the commercial war subsided, many commodities, whether Mohist or aristocratic families, have tacitly restored their constant prices. The aristocratic families that occupy most of the market share can be said to make money every day, which makes the Zheng family leader quite complacent


    "Sure enough, it''s not what my father expected! The Mohist son is quite sensible." Zheng Chang admires.


    As the leader of the Zheng family predicted, as the commercial war subsided, the Mohist family slowly put down its defensive posture. Even the goods deliberately targeted at the aristocratic family in the Mohist mechanism city also recovered their constant price, which made Zheng Chang even more proud. He thought that the Mohist son was secretly glad that he could protect himself and did not dare to deliberately provoke the aristocratic family.


    "That''s natural. When it comes to business, the Mohist family may be a little ingenious. However, no one in the world can control the people''s heart."


    Zheng''s family leader couldn''t help smiling proudly. In his heart, the aristocratic family has always been superior. Now they take the initiative to stop. It can be said that they have temporarily let go of the Mohist family. Privately, the Mohist family is lucky that it''s too late. How can they ask for trouble and take the initiative to provoke the aristocratic family again.


    "Master, the young master is not well! The Mohist son he......" suddenly, Zheng Bo came over with a flustered face and a thick stack of ink magazines in his hand.


    "Mohist family! What does Mohist family want?" Zheng''s master frowned and said with an unhappy face.


    Zheng Bo was sweating, but he couldn''t tell. He was proud to hand over the thick ink magazine in his hand and said, "master, you can see it at a glance."


    "Ink magazine!" Zheng''s master reached out to take over this issue of Ink magazine. He couldn''t help feeling that his hand sank. Only then did he find that this issue of Ink magazine was particularly thick.


    Zheng Chang sneered and said, "the Mohists want to advertise. They don''t need so many pages! They''re such a loser! I''m afraid they can''t even get back the capital for such a thick ink magazine."


    "Ink magazine itself does not rely on subscription to make money, but on advertising." Zheng''s owner disagreed.


    However, when he opened the ink magazine, he was stunned. The first half of the ink magazine was still normal news, but there were hundreds of advertisements behind it.


    "The Mohists are crazy about money. They even print so many advertisements." even the Zheng family owner couldn''t help exclaiming.


    "Mozi is destroying the Great Wall! With so many advertisements, does Mozi want to destroy the ink magazine?" Zheng Chang was overjoyed and thought that Mozi had made a stupid move. No one was willing to see the advertisement. Mozi forced him to use half of his space to advertise at once, which was really heartbroken.


    Zheng Bo on one side smiled bitterly and said, "master, young master, mojiazi''s move is not to advertise, but to sell the goods in these advertisements."


    "Sell these goods! To whom?" Zheng''s father and son were stunned and didn''t understand.


    Zheng Bo said anxiously: "Naturally, it is sold to people who read newspapers. The Mojia Zi has cooperated with the prince. There is a postcard under each page of the Mojia magazine. If you want the goods published in the Mojia magazine, write the goods you want to buy on the postcard, cut them off and send them to the post station and mail them to the Mojia organ city. After receiving the postcard, the Mojia organ city will pack the goods and block the chimney to deliver them to the people, People can buy cheap goods from Mohist mechanism city without leaving home. "


    (mail order is the first time that author Jun bought online. In those years, he was crazy about Zhuxian in school. He couldn''t borrow the last few volumes. He couldn''t wait. He remitted money and sent a letter at the local post office. Ten days later, he received the brand-new genuine Zhuxian. Author Jun is also the oldest hand chopper. He accidentally exposed his age.)


    "You can buy things without leaving home." Zheng''s head was stunned,


    "It''s a joke. If anyone doesn''t try to buy things, the mojiazi let people buy things when they look at advertisements. It''s a fantasy." Zheng Chang immediately sniffed, as if he heard an incredible joke.


    According to normal thinking, anyone who buys things doesn''t read and try, and shop around, but the Mexican family wants them to buy things in front of a newspaper. It''s just a dream.


    "What if the goods are cheap enough? And they are guaranteed by Mohism?" the master of the Zheng family gasped at the low price of the goods in the ink magazine.


    This kind of sales does not need stores or partners, and its cost naturally decreases significantly. Even if the price is reduced, there is enough profit space. Compared with the price of these workshop goods, the workshop of aristocratic family has no advantage.


    Zheng Bo said with a wry smile: "what the owner said is very true. In addition to some of the goods sold in Mojia village, most of them are the goods of ordinary workshops. These workshops are difficult to operate. Now, in order to survive, they are naturally willing to sell at any cost, even at a very low profit, not to mention that Mojia purchases in large quantities. These workshops earn no less than before."


    "Small profits but quick turnover!" Zheng''s family leader looked up with difficulty. He had used this move to deal with the Mo family, but he didn''t expect the Mo family to use this move to deal with them so quickly.


    Zheng Bo nodded and said, "the master of the house is wise!"


    "How do you settle the bill when you buy goods by post?" Zheng Chang said curiously.


    Zheng Bo said, "it''s collected by the post station. The people will give the money and postcards to the post station if they want to buy any goods."


    "If the quality of the goods is not good, it will break in a few days?" Zheng''s master frowned and asked a key question. Once there is a problem with the goods sold in normal stores, he can go to the door for maintenance. However, there is no store to buy goods in ink magazines. If he buys in other counties, he can''t go to the Mohist organ city to return them.


    Zheng Bo''s face showed a trace of shock and said, "if you buy goods in ink magazines, there is no reason to return them within seven days, but you can only replace them within three months! These expenses come from the Mojia village."


    The owner of Zheng''s family was shocked. Mojiazi''s commitment to after-sales service is extremely harsh. Based on the Three Guarantees service in Mojia village, he is refined again. Its price and after-sales service are far more attractive than shopping in stores.


    "In my opinion, my father doesn''t have to worry. Mojiazi''s mail order goods are just wishful thinking. People all over the world believe in paying and delivering at the same time, but mojiazi wants people all over the world to pay first and then deliver. They can''t see and inspect the goods first. I don''t think many people in the world are willing to take this risk." Zheng Chang disagreed.


    The master of the Zheng family nodded and said, "the mail order goods are just a little novel. Now they are only put into trial operation in the pass. It won''t hurt in a short time. What really worries me is the prince and the post station!"


    "Prince and post station!" Zheng Chang looked at his father for unknown reasons.

 Chapter 1031

    Since Li Chengqian''s foot injury was cured, he has become more and more low-key. However, anyone can see that with Li Tai''s obsession with geography, Li Chengqian''s crown prince status has become more and more stable.


    What the aristocratic families didn''t expect was that Li Chengqian once again cooperated with the Mexican family, and even used the post station to sell the goods on the ink magazine.


    "A little bit of goods in Mojia village is nothing! The mail order goods in Mojia magazine can''t threaten the shops in Chang''an city at all. What really worries me is that his Highness the prince is too close to Mojia Zi." Zheng''s master frowned.


    Although Li Shimin is still in his prime of life, Prince Li Chengqian is an adult. If the Mozi and the prince are too close, I''m afraid they will be affected by the Mozi. They have nothing to do with Li Shimin. If they lose their influence on the next emperor, the aristocratic family can''t accept it.


    "It is well known that the Mohist family has been making friends with the prince. The prince''s foot disease was cured by the Mohist hospital supported by the Mohist family. The post station presided over by his highness is the proposal of the Mohist family, let alone the Mohist family''s marriage to Princess Changle, and the relationship between the Mohist family and the prince was further." Zheng Chang was puzzled.


    The master of the Zheng family said, "that''s different. Foot disease and the post station are the duty of the officials of the Mohist family. There are more marriages with the royal family, not just the Mohist family. This time, the crown prince uses the post station to help the Mohist family. He has indirectly stood against the aristocratic family. Over time, when the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, he will naturally be deeply influenced by the Mohist family and dissatisfied with the aristocratic family."


    If the next generation of emperors are still dissatisfied with the aristocratic family, or even generations of emperors are dissatisfied with the aristocratic family, I''m afraid it will be the end of the aristocratic family.


    "What does that father mean?" Zheng Chang asked.


    Zheng''s family Master said: "we must destroy the mail order. First, we can alienate the Mohist son and the prince, so that there is a rift between the two people. Second, we can eliminate the threat of mail order in the bud, so as not to cause great disaster."


    Zheng''s family leader''s eyes are very poisonous. Although mail order has not yet become a climate, he can see the threat at a glance. Stopping mail order can kill two birds with one stone. Naturally, he spared no effort.


    "But will your Highness the crown prince be willing?" Zheng Chang was a little unconvinced. After all, it is well known that the friendship between the Mohist son and his Highness the crown prince has enabled Li Chengqian to stabilize the crown prince, and the Mohist son has made great contributions.


    Zheng''s family leader sneered: "it''s not enough to stabilize the crown prince. If Li Chengqian wants to succeed, he must get the support of the aristocratic family. Moreover, the post station is a public instrument. Now his Highness the crown prince asks the post station to sell goods for the Mo family. Isn''t this public instrument for private use? This reason alone is enough."


    "Public tools for private use!" Zheng opened his eyes. With this high sounding reason, he believed that the mail order system deliberately constructed by Mohist Zi would come to an end.


    East palace!


    In recent years, Li Chengqian has become more and more stable. It is also quite appropriate to replace Li Shimin to supervise the country. The government and the public praise Li Shimin. In order to teach Li Chengqian, Li Shimin has spared no effort to teach Li Chengqian to knowledgeable people, and Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda are two of them.


    They also tried their best. Whenever they found that Li Chengqian was at fault, they repeatedly made Yan''s direct advice, which was praised by the government and the public.


    "Your Highness, it''s not wise to do this. The post station is the public weapon of the imperial court, but now it transports goods for the Mojia village. It''s taboo to use the public weapon for private use. Isn''t your highness giving someone a handle?" crown prince Zhan, who was distressed by Yu Zhining, strongly advised Li Chengqian.


    Li Chengqian laughed and said, "Lord Yu is worried. The post station is not for public or private use, but for the benefit of the people."


    "Benefiting the people?" Yu Zhining frowned.


    Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Yes, since the post station communicated with the people all over the world, it has been highly praised, and the people have been able to send letters smoothly. However, some families have no way to send some parcels for wandering children. Shopping at the post station is the pilot of the parcel business in our palace. First, with the mail order business of ink magazines, the parcel business can be carried out smoothly without huge losses at the beginning. Second , for the mail order business, the palace killed mohou mercilessly. Mohou promised to donate at least 500 special trucks to support the parcel business of the post station. "


    "Five hundred liang of special trucks, mojiazi is a good idea!" Yu Zhining snorted coldly. Compared with the prospect of mokan mail order business, these five hundred trucks are nothing to mention. Moreover, these trucks were originally produced by Mojia village, and mojiazi paid a lower cost.


    "Naturally, his highness is thinking of the world and the people all over the world. However, his highness intended to be good, but the people all over the world, civil and military officials, may not think so. Since ancient times, public is public and private is private. It has only been three years since the post station sent letters to the people all over the world, and the government and the public have just accepted it. Now his highness uses the post station to transport goods for Mojia village again I believe the memorial of the imperial historian of the imperial court will be presented to your majesty soon, which is not good for your highness! "Kong Yingda pushed the door and entered solemnly.


    "The ministers objected!" Li Chengqian''s face sank. In recent years, he has become more and more low-key. In addition to hiding his power and biding his time, the opposition of the officials is also one of them. Especially Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda in front of him. As long as he was a little out of line, they tried their best to admonish and compared Li Chengqian to Xia Jie, Shang Zhou, but Li Shimin encouraged their behavior and even won Li Shimin''s seal Reward, so that they intensified, and even had a trend compared with the last play.


    "It''s true that many imperial princes have found me. Fortunately, I''ve suppressed this matter for the time being. Now only the prince can stop the cooperation between the post station and ink magazine to recover the situation." Yu Zhining strongly advised.


    "But our palace has promised to kill two birds with one stone. What''s more, it''s good for the post station. It can not only avoid the loss of the post station''s parcel business at the beginning, but also make the post station balance its revenue and expenditure. Why not?" Li Shimin argued.


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly, "what''s wrong? Public is public and private is private. Three years ago, the post station lost tens of thousands of dollars every year. What did the court say? The loss is affordable. However, the reputation of the crown prince can''t be tainted at all, because the crown prince represents the face of the court."


    Kong Yingda then said, "moreover, the Mo family has no intention to promote mail order, but to compete with the aristocratic family. As the head of the East Palace, how can the prince interfere with the gratitude and resentment between the Mo family and the aristocratic family? How can a prince who has offended the aristocratic family all over the world ascend the throne smoothly."


    "Offend the aristocratic family in the world!" Li Chengqian was stunned. Despite the darkness of the struggle between the Mohist family and the aristocratic family, Li Shimin has a momentum to suppress the aristocratic family. However, everyone knows that the foundation of the Tang Dynasty is still the aristocratic family, and the emperor can suppress the aristocratic family, but the Mohist family and the aristocratic family fight for your life and death, and only the crown prince can''t offend the aristocratic family in the world.


    "What the second division said is very true. It''s because the palace doesn''t think well." Li Chengqian reluctantly lowered his head and arched his hands.


    "It''s great that you can correct your mistakes, not to mention the starting point of the crown prince." Yu Zhining nodded with satisfaction. In this way, he successfully admonished again, and brought his royal highness back to the side of the aristocratic family.


    Kong Yingda''s heart moved. He and Yu Zhining united to destroy the cooperation between the Mohist School and the crown prince. They were determined to have a quarrel and avoid the Mohist School and the crown prince coming too close, which is what Confucianism wants to see.

 Chapter 1032

    Not surprisingly, when the news came that the mail order had ended without illness, the mojiazi really couldn''t sit still. He personally came to the east palace to look for Li Chengqian''s theory.


    "Does your highness really think that Mo''s promotion of mail order is just for the private interests of the Mohist family? The Mohist family already has an organ City, which can be attacked and defended. There is no need to paint a snake to promote mail order. Mo''s move is for the small workshops in Chang''an City. They have small profits and can''t survive at all. Only by selling goods in the most direct way can they tide over the difficulties." Merton asked the teacher with great momentum.


    Chengqian''s face changed. He waved everyone out of the hall and closed the door. However, the quarrel in the hall came out faintly.


    Outside the East Palace, everyone sat upright and looked straight. They all thought that the East Palace must be full of gunpowder. However, in the East Palace, it was a harmonious scene.


    Li Chengqian shouted out, but bowed his head and said in a low voice, "as expected, the aristocratic family intervened and tried to stop the mail order."


    Merton also roared out, his face showing a trace of pride and said, "however, they don''t know that we have never planned to use the post station to mail order goods."


    Post station mail order is the most primitive and efficient online way. Merton has the experience of later generations and naturally will not take this detour. From beginning to end, Merton proposed that mail order is a trap and a trap to lead aristocratic families into the urn.


    "It''s a pity that you and I have cooperated for the last time! We can''t communicate too much in a short time." Li Chengqian looked at Merton and said with regret. This is not only their decision, but also Li Shimin''s meaning. If Li Chengqian, as the future crown prince, openly opposes the family, it will not be conducive to Li Chengqian''s succession in the future, but also make the family jump over the wall. Li Chengqian must remain neutral, Even slightly biased towards the aristocratic family, and mail order is a good play for the aristocratic family.


    "Then let''s play the last play!" Merton rose proudly.


    "Squeak!"!


    The closed Palace door opened again and again, and Merton angrily pushed the door and said, "since the post station is unwilling to do something that benefits the world, let the Mohist do it. The Mohist will certainly not close down small and medium-sized workshops."


    "The world is not your Mohist family. Although the post station can not be used for public and private purposes, it also has a mind to benefit the world." Li Chengqian''s unhappy voice came from the east palace.


    "The minister will wait and see. I hope your highness will not disappoint the people all over the world!" Merton said with disbelief on his face.


    Soon, the news that the Mozi and the prince broke up unhappily soon spread. All the aristocratic families were celebrating each other, and the Zheng family leader was even more pleased. This move killed two birds with one stone, not only separated the Mozi and the prince, but also strangled the mail order in the bud, and solved the hidden dangers of the aristocratic family.


    However, without waiting for him to be happy for too long, a news came, and a news came to embarrass his face again.


    "Home Lord, since the breakup between the Mohist son and his Highness the prince, he did not give up the mail order. Instead, he set up his own Caravan and appointed the Mohist children to deliver goods. The firm name was Kyoto express." Zheng Bo hurried to report.


    "What is express delivery?" Zheng Chang didn''t understand.


    Zheng Bo said: "back to young master, the so-called express delivery is to deliver the goods to the people at the fastest speed. It is very similar to some errands in Chang''an City, but the Mohists send the goods."


    "Kyoto express? Mozi is really a thief!" Zheng raised his eyebrows. Mozi really wants to carry the family to the end and is determined to support small and medium-sized workshops against the family.


    "The Mohist family is a snake swallowing an elephant. The post station can only be built with the strength of the whole country. The Mohist family is to put together all the family assets of the Mohist village. I''m afraid it''s difficult to complete 10% of the post station." Zheng''s master sneered.


    Zheng Bo said with a wry smile: "the master of the house is wise. The Mohist son is really as the master expected. He can''t layout the whole Tang Dynasty as a post station. Instead, he chose one of the ten Guannei roads to build Kyoto express. With Chang''an City as the center, the Mohist organ city is set up in each county. There is a comparable post station near Beijing. There are Mohist strongholds in each township, which are responsible for receiving and sending goods."


    "Mojia Zi is really ambitious!" Zheng''s master took a breath. He thought that Mojia Zi had no ability to build a huge post station, but he didn''t think that Mojia Zi chose to divide the post station into ten. First, he made every effort to build a post station scale and radiated the whole pass with the Mojia mechanism city as the base. In this way, he could greatly save travel time, Send the goods to the whole pass as quickly as possible.


    What''s more terrible is that once the Mohist mechanism city in Luoyang city is completed, Mohist Zi can layout the express delivery of the whole Henan Road, and so on, just like a puzzle. With the establishment of Mohist mechanism cities, Kyoto express throughout the whole Tang Dynasty has been clearly visible.


    Zheng Bo said with a wry smile: "moreover, Kyoto express is worthy of its name. A people can cut off the goods of ink magazines and give them to the Mohist stronghold. It can be sent to the Mohist organ city in two days, and the Mohist organ city will deliver the goods immediately. Even if the County in the Guannei road is the farthest from Chang''an City, three days is enough to reach the hands of the people. It takes only five days to come and go."


    Although the post stations are spread all over the country, mail order has a large layout at the beginning, but the turnover is slow. After the aristocratic family stopped mail order, mojiazi turned to set up express. With Chang''an City as the center, Mojia organ city as the base, and strongholds in all counties of guanneidao, five days is enough to send goods to the whole guanneidao.


    "Only five days, this is the real big stroke of the MOH family!" Zheng Shijia master couldn''t help but shock. Sending an express for five days is extremely slow in future generations, and in the slow-paced era of Datang, five days is already super fast.


    Zheng Bo took a deep breath and repressed the shock in his heart. "This is just the farthest county. It takes five days, and in Chang''an City, Kyoto express gives full play to its speed. It will place an order in the morning, and before sunset, there will be Mohist children to deliver the goods to the people. It can be said to be a great speed."


    Zheng boqiong did his best and finally spit out the word "divine speed". Such speed simply refreshed his cognition.


    "Morning and evening!" Zheng said. The Mohist team from Chang''an to Luoyang is the morning and evening, and Kyoto express gives full play to the essence of the morning and evening.


    "Kyoto express will not be inferior to the post station in the future!" Zheng Bo said solemnly. Post station mail order and Kyoto express have their own advantages and disadvantages. Post station mail order can spread the goods of ink magazines throughout the Tang Dynasty, but the efficiency is very slow. It takes at least half a month from Chang''an city to Lingnan Road, while Jingdu express takes the ten counties and cities in the world as the center, although each organ city can only take into account one place, But it is the fastest, but it greatly shortens the delivery distance. Five days is enough for delivery. Once mojiazi completes the ten roads and ten cities plan and assists Kyoto express, what a grand layout it will be.


    Moreover, in this era, there are few merchants all over the road. Most of them are within the road. Business and travel exchanges are the mainstream. The establishment of Kyoto express within the scope of one place by mojiazi is more in line with the national conditions of Datang.


    "More importantly, with the Mohist mechanism city and Kyoto express, the Mohists directly delivered the goods to the people. There is no need for merchants to transfer. The aristocratic family has lost the means to clamp down on the Mohists." Zheng''s master said with an embarrassed face.


    He originally thought that the aristocratic family''s initiative to stop was a gift to the Mohists. The Mohists secretly rejoiced that it was too late. However, he didn''t think that the Mohist mechanism city was not the limit of the Mohists. When the Mohists proposed mail order, he just took preventive measures. The real purpose was to provoke the relationship between the Mohists and Li Chengqian, and the emergence of Kyoto express really surprised him, This is an unprecedented business model, which makes the aristocratic family defenseless and defenseless.


    As soon as Kyoto express came out, the attack and defense situation of Mohism and aristocratic family changed suddenly. Mohism was no longer attacked passively, but united with a number of small and medium-sized workshops, and its momentum was on an equal footing with aristocratic family.


    "The Mohists are determined to oppose us!" Zheng Chang said, gnashing his teeth.


    "No one wants to be strangled by others, especially the proud people like the Mo family. Naturally, they are not willing to be subject to the aristocratic family all the time. This time, I lost my count." the master of the Zheng family smiled bitterly,


    People with a clear eye can see that with the laying of Kyoto express, a group of small and medium-sized workshops led by the Mohist family will rise rapidly, but the aristocratic family has nothing to do about it. So far, the three-year business war between the aristocratic family and the Mohist family has finally come to an end,


    Mohism won!

 Chapter 1033

    As soon as Kyoto express came out, it immediately caused a heated discussion in Chang''an city.


    Although the people first heard about the shopping in the ink magazine, it has the reputation guarantee of the Mohist mechanism City, coupled with the low price, especially the day-to-day publicity in Chang''an City, which makes many people excited. After all, not everyone in Chang''an City has free time to visit the Mohist mechanism city across half of Chang''an city.


    "Is it reliable to buy things in newspapers and periodicals?" a citizen looked at the extremely cheap goods in ink magazines and said with some heart and some hesitation.


    "Yes, if the mail order was similar before, and the post station was set up by the imperial court, I naturally trust the post station. However, how can Kyoto express remit money? If there is a problem with the goods, the Mohist school must be on the side of the ink magazine." someone doubted.


    One merchant laughed and said, "you underestimate mojiazi. This time, mojiazi is very atmospheric. You don''t need to take the lead in payment, but pay on delivery. After you receive the goods and confirm that the goods are correct, you can pay again, but if you are not satisfied, you can directly refuse."


    "Cash on delivery, isn''t that equivalent to Mohist putting the goods in front of us for us to choose?" Chang''an citizens were surprised.


    In the past, when they bought goods, they all went to the shop to select goods and then pay. However, Mojia village did the opposite and directly sent the goods to them. Although it was a business relationship, one was that they came to the door and the other was that the merchant came to the door. However, it immediately made the buyer feel very different.


    "Cash on delivery, so I can still trust mojiazi once." a Chang''an people said, with such a cheap price, such convenient shopping, and cash on delivery, they can refuse if they are not satisfied. Mojiazi''s perfect preparation dispels all their concerns.


    Especially in Chang''an City, a city with high prices and difficult to live in, people''s life pressure is quite great. Before, they had no choice. Now suddenly, Kyoto express is a good choice to buy low-cost goods. Many young people have tried this novel way of shopping.


    For a while, newspaper shopping was popular in Chang''an city. In the streets, Kyoto couriers in uniform could be seen running around Chang''an City, delivering goods to thousands of families in person.


    "Back to young master, there are 108 workshops in Chang''an City, and several couriers are stationed in Kyoto express. The Mohist transport team is equipped with a human tricycle for each courier to ensure that each courier can easily, quickly and safely deliver the goods to each customer." Li Xin proudly introduced Merton, who came to inspect the Kyoto express stronghold outside pingkang workshop.


    The newly built Mohist express is not a castle in the air. Merton directly incorporated the already large-scale Mohist transport team into Mohist express. Just after Mohist withdrew from Jiangnan, many people, horses and vehicles were idle, and Kyoto express is like a glutton, and those who swallow them all refused.


    Merton looked outside the stronghold. Several tricycles were often parked outside in later generations, but the tricycle bucket behind had been replaced with a one person high carriage, which was enough to carry a considerable amount of goods. With the help of human tricycles, the courier not only saved labor and delivered goods quickly, but also all the carriages were sprayed with Mohist iconic black car paint, The two big white characters Kyoto stand out.


    "I''ve seen shopkeeper Li and mohou!" three young Kyoto couriers in uniform black clothes. He saluted Merton with an excited face. You should know that the Mohists are the idols of the younger generation. They are naturally excited to see Merton in person.


    Merton''s heart moved and suddenly knew that these people were not Mohist children, because most of the Mohist children called him young master, not mohou.


    "Young master, they are not Mohist children. Kyoto express needs to lay the site of the whole Guannei road. The manpower of Mohist village is really insufficient. These are new Chang''an children." Li Xin explained.


    "Although we are not the children of Mohism, we also want Mohism and regard mohou as an idol!" the courier headed by Zhang Deng blushed.


    Merton looked at Zhang Deng''s young face, patted him on the shoulder and said, "well said, in the future, all employees who enter Kyoto express are my brothers of Merton. They generally enjoy the benefits of Mojia village with the children of Mojia. Later, all Kyoto express workers will be included in the free medical treatment of Mojia village."


    "Ah!" the three of Zhang Deng suddenly showed surprise. You should know that among all the benefits of Mojia village, the free medical policy is the only one that people all over the world envy. After three years of development, the free medical policy of Mojia has been further improved. Unless they have some incurable diseases, ordinary Mojia children probably don''t need to spend money to see a doctor in their life, They did not expect that they had just entered Kyoto express to be able to enjoy this good policy.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" the three saluted again and again.


    "However, in the Mohist school, the rights and obligations are equal. Since you enjoy the rights of the Mohist school, you should fulfill the obligations of the Mohist school. As a Kyoto courier, you should abide by the Mohist concept of universal love and non aggression, help others and be kind to others!" Merton solemnly said.


    "Please don''t worry, we will live up to the expectations of mohou." Zhang Deng and others looked solemn and solemnly promised.


    Merton nodded and said, "work hard. The Mohists won''t give up any brothers."


    Watching Zhang Dingsan leave with passion, Merton couldn''t help showing a knowing smile. However, Li Xin on one side couldn''t smile. He said with a sad face: "young master, you don''t know how many couriers the whole pass needs to recruit, at least thousands of people. If everyone joins the free medical care of Mohist, it will be a heavy burden for Mohist village."


    The situation in Mojia village has just improved. Now there are thousands of welfare benefits, which is not a small expenditure.


    Merton laughed and said, "compared with the advertising effect produced by thousands of Kyoto couriers, what is this expenditure?"


    "Advertising?" Li Xin frowned, puzzled.


    Merton Lang: "No matter how good the concept of Mohist village is, it is just a corner. It has a small reputation in Chang''an city at most. Other people in the Tang Dynasty are just hearsay about Mohist, but these thousands of couriers are different. They disperse the whole pass and rush around the streets and alleys every day. The clothes they wear, the tricycle they board under their feet, and what they do all the time The idea of Mohist''s love for non aggression in the publicity is not the advertisement of Mohist''s walking the whole pass? Let alone the promotion of Kyoto express to the whole Tang Dynasty. Kyoto express is the business card of Mohist in Tang Dynasty, and everyone knows Mohist''s idea. "


    Li Xin was stunned and understood the young master''s plan. However, he didn''t know that after today, the most mysterious organization in Datang was officially born. They are versatile and courageous. They have become the most beautiful scenery in Datang.

 Chapter 1034

    "This is your package, sir!" a Kyoto courier found a family in Fangshi according to the address and handed over a well packaged package.


    "So fast!" exclaimed the man who opened the door. This was his first time shopping in the newspaper. In the morning, he just placed an order. Now the sun has just tilted West, and his package has been delivered.


    The young courier said proudly: "this brother doesn''t know. The packages of Kyoto express go day and night in Chang''an City, and the fastest speed is that they can be delivered one hour after placing an order."


    "It''s also very convenient!" the man nodded with satisfaction. It was a very satisfactory shopping experience. He reached out to open the package and check the goods inside. It was really well made, no worse than the shops on the street.


    "Twenty Wen altogether! If you are satisfied, please sign here!" the courier handed a pen and asked the man to sign for it.


    "Twenty Wen is not expensive!"


    The price was 30% cheaper than the market. The man paid 20 Wen and signed for the package.


    "Please also collect the bill. If there is a quality problem, report it to the nearest site in Fangshi and replace it within three months!" the Kyoto courier collected the bill and divided it into two and handed it to the man.


    "Three-month replacement!" the man couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. You know, except for the after-sales service in Mojia village, the shops in Chang''an city are not responsible for leaving the store. Three-month replacement is already a great conscience.


    "I wish you a pleasant shopping!" the Kyoto courier said politely, got up and went back to the tricycle and rushed to the next house.


    With the delivery of packages one by one, Kyoto courier can be said to have become the most popular topic in Chang''an city. With rich treatment and superior welfare, in the process of delivery, he behaved politely, acted quickly and served attentively, which soon won a lot of praise.


    In particular, ink magazine consciously publicized the deeds of Kyoto couriers. Some couriers acted bravely, some couriers left without leaving their names. Some couriers took the initiative to direct the traffic in case of traffic congestion. Kyoto couriers who pursued the Mohist concept impressed the whole Chang''an city.


    With good reputation and rich treatment, young couriers have become hot guests of Chang''an matchmaker.


    "Mohist is worthy of being Mohist!" in Gongshu''s home, Gongshu Hong looked at the Kyoto courier who hurried away at the door and said with heartfelt admiration. With such a big move of Mohist, Gongshu naturally paid attention to it all the way, but he saw with his own eyes that Kyoto courier jumped from an ordinary Chang''an youth to a walking Mohist business card.


    "Today''s Mohist school has completed the ecological chain and will no longer be subject to the aristocratic family!" the public loser said calmly. Although he was dissatisfied with the Mohist school, he had to admire the Kyoto express built by Merton with a lot of money. Today''s Mohist village will no longer be controlled by people. Although the public loser has made little achievements, it is not worth mentioning, If the public losers were responsible for every suffering experienced by the Mohists, I''m afraid they would have collapsed.


    "The most important thing is mojiazi''s mind. Once Kyoto express was launched, it was not Mojia who benefited the most, but a public small and medium-sized workshop. The large and small workshops in Chang''an City were working day and night, and were in the ascendant. Once the previous state of being half dead was changed, mojiazi''s move could be said to have changed the whole Chang''an industry." Gong Shuhao showed his worship.


    In fact, in this shopping reform, it is the public losers who benefit the most. The public losers do not have the huge transportation team of Mojia village and the sales channels all over Chang''an Luoyang. They all rely on businesses to change hands.


    Among all the goods sold in Ink magazine, the best one is not the products of Mojia village, but the new locks of gongshuhao.


    In order to promote new locks, ink magazine even specially equipped the locks with pictures and pictures. The new, convenient and lightweight locks directly killed the traditional old locks. Coupled with the public loser''s great reputation in safety, the sales of locks rose sharply and became the king of sales of Ink magazine.


    This makes public loser Hao proud. After this war, not only has he become the backbone of public losers, but even the whole public losers have benefited a lot.


    "Mojia Zi!" Gongshu Hong could not help but be silent. It is reasonable to say that the competitive relationship between Gongshu and Mojia is well known. However, Mojia did not set obstacles to the public losers, but treated them equally. This is the glory of the new locks.


    "In my opinion, it must be the Mohist family who took advantage of the public loser''s reputation for Kyoto express." a public loser''s son couldn''t help but talk. He didn''t believe that the Mohist family was so kind.


    Gongshu Hao said with a bitter smile: "then you look up to Gongshu family. Although the new locks of Gongshu family have the highest sales volume in ink magazines, there are at least thousands of workshops cooperated by Kyoto express, and the share of Gongshu family is less than 1%. It''s not worth mentioning at all."


    "One percent." the sons of public losers were stunned.


    "Moreover, as more and more workshops are joined, the share of public losers will be less and less. It is nonsense to rely on the reputation of public losers," sighed public loser Hao.


    Although public loser Hao is suspected of having the ambition of others to destroy his prestige, public losers have no objection. Now Kyoto Express has just started to have such a scale. It can be imagined that with the continuous expansion of the world''s ten channels, Kyoto express can grow to what a huge step.


    "The Mohist''s ink skills are really extraordinary!" Gong Shuhong said convinced.


    The public transport wheel didn''t understand and said, "master, Kyoto express is just an idea of Mohist! It can''t be called Mohist ink technology!"


    Gongshu Hong solemnly said, "Mohist ink technology is not just a kind of technology. The product born on Mohist technology can also be called ink technology. You only see that Kyoto express is just delivery. However, it can only be established on the basis of newspapers, movable type printing, four-wheel carriage and human tricycle, otherwise it can only be a castle in the air."


    "What my father said is true! Public losers can no longer be limited to their skills, but make full use of their skills and innovate again on the original basis, so as not to let the Mohist School throw away further." public loser Hao said proudly.


    "Oh! My son has a clue!" Gong Shuhong''s eyes flashed.


    Gongshu Hao nodded proudly: "the world attaches most importance to safety and privacy, which is the reason why Gongshu''s locks sell well. If you want to be safe at home, there is a door in addition to the lock. Next, children are going to build a door and embed the lock directly in the door, so that those who pry the lock have nowhere to start, which greatly increases the safety."


    "It''s like the door of a four-wheel carriage!" Gong Shuhong said in his heart. The four-wheel carriage built by Mohist school is the combination of car and door.


    Gongshu Hao nodded proudly: "Yes, in addition to locks and doors, the most important thing in the world is the safety of money. However, few people can be willing to invite public losers to build a treasury. If we build a small treasury with refined steel, we can put it in the house and assist the public losers with the most sophisticated locks, which can store both money and important things. I believe that the small Treasury will sell well The world. "


    "Little silver bank!" the sons of the public losers couldn''t help nodding. This is really a good idea.


    "Well, my son has this talent, and I have successors!" Gongshu Hong was overjoyed. He could imagine that once Gongshu created the safest door and small bank, the name of Gongshu would naturally spread all over the country.


    The public loser''s prosperity is just around the corner.

 Chapter 1035

    Mohist Kyoto express not only pays attention to the public losers, but also other 100! It can be described as mixed, praised by friends and denounced by others.


    Proponents believe that the Mohist School eliminated the disadvantages of merchants in one fell swoop, sent products directly to the people, and solved the disadvantages of merchants hoarding strange things, which is beneficial to the people all over the world.


    For a long time, the speed of information circulation in all parts of Datang has been slow. Businesses often make several times of profits by taking advantage of the opaque information difference of local prices. Businesses ask for prices indiscriminately everywhere. That''s why, once Ink magazine shopping is launched, fair and fair prices are immediately welcomed by the people, which is the real opportunity for the outbreak of Ink magazine shopping.


    Now, with the price information of ink magazines, the commodity prices of the whole pass are becoming more transparent, which makes merchants no longer dare to price indiscriminately, and makes some profiteers gnash their teeth. The era of profiteering is gone, but no one sympathizes with these profiteers.


    As soon as these people falsely raise prices, they will be despised. There is a saying that when the tide recedes, you will know who is swimming naked! Ink magazine shopping directly makes the goods of workshops all over the world transparent. Those merchants are conscience prices, and those merchants are profiteers. This time, they are exposed.


    Second, these profiteers once betrayed the Mohist school. The Mohist School exposed the face of their profiteers, which can be described as one reward for another.


    There are also hundreds of people who oppose it. They believe that all the people in the world are indispensable. The move of the Mohist school has greatly damaged the stable situation formed through the ages. It only benefits the Mohist family, but the businesses in the world are damaged. I''m afraid it will cause chaos in the world.


    Among the merchants, the merchants belonging to the aristocratic family suffered heavy losses. All along, the aristocratic family carried out monopoly business. Once they entered a place, almost no one competed with them. As soon as Kyoto express came out, it broke their monopoly barrier. The original workshop competitiveness of the aristocratic family was low, and I''m afraid it can''t even compete with normal business competition, What''s more, it suddenly entered the hell business competition of online shopping in the future. For a while, the shops of aristocratic families overturned one after another.


    "How do you do things? You''ve been losing money in recent months." Zheng Chang looked at the account books in recent months and roared.


    "Young master, it''s not that we are not doing well, but that Kyoto express is expanding too fast in Chang''an city. Shopping can go day and night, and people can buy goods without going out. We are helpless!" cried a Zheng shopkeeper.


    "Waste, Chang''an City has a population of nearly one million. Does everyone use Kyoto express to buy things? Most people don''t want to go to the store to buy things." Zheng Chang frowned.


    "What the young master said is true. Many people still come to the shops to buy goods. However, the price in the newspapers is much lower than that in our stores. Many people read the price in the newspapers and then look at the price in our shops. They left without looking back. The goods that used to sell well can''t be sold now."


    "Even if we buy again, we have to give up a lot of profits before we can sell the goods. Not only the sales volume is low, but also the profit is low."


    One shopkeeper after another cried that in the face of this hellish price war, Zheng''s shops simply had no ability to fight back.


    "Price war!" Zheng Chang said, gnashing his teeth. He was very familiar with this routine. At the beginning, many aristocratic families tried their best to take the way of price war to seize the market of Mohist village in order to run on Mohist products. Now Feng Shui has changed in turn. They also tasted the flavor of price war. Even their opponents are not Mohist village, but an unknown small workshop.


    Originally, this small workshop will not be regarded by the aristocratic family. Their production capacity and sales are extremely limited, and they have no reputation. However, with the support of ink magazines, these small workshops fly into the sky like pigs in the tuyere, which makes the aristocratic family unable to get up.


    "Young master, this war is not their crime, not only us, but also the famous big businesses in Chang''an city. They have received the impact of Kyoto express. Now the whole Chang''an business community is in mourning." Zheng Bo spoke to the shopkeepers.


    Now, with the price information of ink magazines, the commodity prices of the whole guanneidao tend to be transparent, so that businesses no longer dare to price indiscriminately. The original best-selling commodities can no longer be sold, and the high profits no longer exist.


    In particular, the Zheng family suffered heavy losses. Since Zheng Chonghua entered the palace, the Zheng family has actively arranged Chang''an City and bought many industries in Chang''an city. In addition, they have taken the initiative to snipe Mohist, sniping Mohist village at low prices similar to Mohist industry, and other industries earn profits at high prices. These big shopkeepers originally relied on the name of Zheng family in Xingyang, The business is a monopoly business. However, as soon as ink magazine shopping and Kyoto express came out, the Zheng family suffered heavy losses, and even suffered losses for the first time.


    "A bunch of bastards, we and the aristocratic family have invested so much money in the workshop that we can''t even deal with the small workshop!" Zheng Chang said angrily. If the aristocratic family''s workshop is lost in the hands of the Mohist village, he will admit it, but it happened that he was lost to an unknown small workshop, which makes his face hang.


    Zheng Bo said with a ashamed face: "young master, we didn''t pay attention to those small workshops at all. However, after they followed the Mohist school, they were mainly supported by the Mohist school, and got a lot of Mohist ink technology and machinery. Now they are on a par with our quality. In terms of products alone, Zheng''s workshop can be said to have no advantage."


    With the support of Mohist, these small workshops have greatly increased their technology and made a qualitative leap in product quality. They are grateful to Mohist nature. Coupled with a large number of Mohist purchases, these workshops naturally supply Mohist magazines at the most favorable price, or deduct the payment for Mohist machinery from the payment for goods, so as to achieve a win-win situation between Mohist and small and medium-sized workshops.


    Ink magazine has no shops and manpower expenditure, and its cost has been greatly reduced. Naturally, it can be sold at a very low price and make a profit. However, the cost of aristocratic shops is too high, so it can not be compared with ink magazine.


    "The Mohists deceive people too much! This is to kill all of us!" Zheng Chang was angry. He thought that with the initiative of the aristocratic family to stop, the Mohists should keep a tacit understanding and share the interests of the world together. Why not.


    However, they misjudged the Mohist family again. Instead of accepting the kindness of the aristocratic family, the Mohist family continued to stand on the side of the small and medium-sized workshops that survived in the cracks and continue to fight against the aristocratic family.


    "Everyone in the world can cooperate with the aristocratic family, but not Mohist! Brother Zheng was wrong from the beginning!" Wei Si''an''s familiar voice suddenly sounded behind Zheng Chang.


    "Why is this?" Zheng Chang didn''t understand.


    "What is the Mohist school? In those days, Mozi used fur and brown as his clothes, and his clothes were his clothes. He worked hard day and night. Mozi was followed by a group of mud legs. Mozi thought he was the successor of Mozi''s ideas. Naturally, he was interested in the ordinary people. If the Mohist school really cooperated with the aristocratic family, it would lose its foundation for survival. With the wisdom of Mozi, it would not commit this crime It''s a mistake, "said wesan.


    In wesan''s view, ink magazine shopping is the most practical measure to practice the Mohist concept. Everyone can use ink magazine shopping, and everyone can buy low-cost goods in ink magazines. Those ordinary people and small workshops are the ultimate beneficiaries of Ink magazine shopping.


    "So, the MOH family is not with us after all!" Zheng Chang frowned.


    Wei Sian sneered: "Mohism is not the same as us from beginning to end! Our aristocratic family can use Confucian ideas to obtain power and use Ziqian family to earn money, but Mohism is not. Mohist ink technology is indeed a good thing, but Mohist ideas are incompatible with aristocratic families."


    Zheng Chang nodded in agreement.


    "I think it''s time for the aristocratic family to cooperate with the Confucian journal!" Wei Si an Lang said.

 Chapter 1036

    "Confucian journal! Does Confucian journal also want to promote newspaper shopping?" Zheng open looked at Wei Si''an with surprise. If Confucian journal can also shop in newspapers, their family will have the means to compete with Mohism.


    "Of course, it''s impossible. Confucian journals are authentic Confucian journals. How can they do those things that betray scriptures and Taoism?" Wei Si''an shook his head. Although he was very excited about the way ink journals shop, the old and stubborn Confucians would not want to. Confucian journals were established with the support of some great Confucians. They were pretentious and naturally did not want to let the noble Confucian journals be contaminated with those copper stinks, Being able to advertise is already the limit of those old diehards.


    Moreover, even if those old Confucianists are willing to go shopping in the newspaper, they also need to prepare for the construction of such a large Kyoto express. This is an astronomical figure. Even if the Mojia village is big and backed by the Mojia village bank, it is just preparing for the construction of the pass. He is just a third son of the Wei family. How can he control so much money.


    "What does brother Wei mean?" Zheng Chang didn''t understand.


    Wesan proudly said: "Now only Confucian journals can help the Zheng family. Those small and medium-sized workshops rely on low prices, but they are not comparable to the workshops of aristocratic families in terms of quality and reputation. Now small and medium-sized workshops rely on ink journals, and most aristocratic family workshops are old stores for many years, and what they lack is fame. As long as they advertise in Confucian journals, this is the way for aristocratic families to check and balance small and medium-sized workshops The only way out. "


    "Advertising?" Zheng Chang frowned. Originally, the aristocratic family mostly monopolized business, but he didn''t think of advertising.


    "Yes, not only advertising, but also special advertising! Only when the reputation of aristocratic workshops and shops increases greatly can the goods be sold at a high price, and the sales volume does not decrease. Brother Zheng also knows that most of the customers of Confucian journals are people who don''t like Mohism and are top-notch people who are well versed in poetry and books. Naturally, they need top-grade goods," Wei Sian reminded,


    You should know that those who subscribe to Confucian journals are people deeply educated by Confucianism. Most of these people are social elites. Naturally, they don''t like the goods of those small workshops. The cooperation between Confucian journals and aristocratic family workshops is a perfect match.


    Zheng Chang moved in his heart, looked at Wei Si''an and said with a smile: "brother Wei is so active in helping the Zheng family. I''m afraid it''s more for Confucianism!"


    Wei Si''an''s eyes flashed, his face puzzled and said, "brother Zheng, why did you say that?"


    "As far as I know, the sales volume of Ink magazine has soared recently, while that of Confucianism magazine has not increased but decreased!" Zheng Chang said with a smile.


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help humming, "it''s not those mud legs who are greedy for small profits."


    Wei Sian''s greed for small profits is not that people buy some high-quality and low-cost goods in ink magazines. What makes him angry is that when some people compare ink magazines with Confucianism magazines, they find that ink magazines are twice thicker than Confucianism magazines. Even if they only look at the thickness, they think ink magazines are more conscientious and choose ink magazines one after another, which greatly increases the sales of ink magazines.


    "That''s it! You should know that the extra half of ink magazines are advertisements. Are advertisements so popular?" Zheng Chang was stunned.


    "Who would have thought that people still like to watch advertisements?" Wei Si''an was depressed. It is said that most of the people who love to watch shopping advertisements are women. The reading group of newspapers and periodicals has always been men. However, the shopping of ink magazines has directly opened up the women''s market. Although the literacy rate of women in Datang is not high, it can not stand a large base, which instantly drives the sales of ink magazines to increase greatly, and has become the main force of Ink magazine shopping.


    "Maybe women love shopping by nature!" Zheng Chang couldn''t help but smack his tongue.


    "What''s more hateful is that some people only buy ink magazines for the sake of more waste newspapers." wesan said with gnashing teeth.


    "What''s the use of waste newspapers?" Zheng Chang was surprised.


    "This is also the most puzzling place for my little brother," Wei Sian sighed.


    Zheng Bo, who was on one side later, said in his heart, "I may know a little about it."


    "Say it quickly!" Wei Si''an was surprised. He was worried about it. He was overjoyed to hear that Zheng Bo knew the reason. Only by understanding the reason can he have a way to deal with ink magazine.


    Zheng Bo thought and said, "the news on the waste newspaper has expired, but the waste newspaper itself has a wide range of uses, the first of which is to paste windows!"


    "Paste the window?" Zheng Geng and his wife frowned and looked at the huge glass window in front of the living room. The sun shone through the glass unobstructed into the house. Although they were unhappy with Mojia Zi, they had no resistance to the products of Mojia village.


    Zheng Bo said with a wry smile: "two young masters, where ordinary people can use luxury jewelry such as glass, most of them paste the windows with paper. Of course, the best effect is white paper, but in front of such a thick ink magazine with enough money, the more people naturally save, the better, let alone waste the newspaper. I''m afraid this is also the reason why Ink magazine is so popular."


    "Why?" As the top childe, they couldn''t imagine that it was such a simple reason. People need a lot of waste newspapers to paste windows, and the ink magazine just provides this. Although the light transmittance is not enough, white paper is not as good as transparent glass, but the key is not to want money! For people, what doesn''t want money is good.


    "Brother Wei, don''t worry. When the people have finished pasting the windows, they won''t use ink anymore." Zheng Chang comforted.


    Zheng Bo said, "young master, after pasting the windows, you can also paste the walls. The walls pasted with newspapers are beautiful and clean, but they are much better than the walls."


    Wesan couldn''t help drawing a corner of his mouth.


    "There will always be a time when the paste is finished!" Zheng Chang said dryly.


    Zheng Bo then said, "even if the windows and walls are pasted, the newspaper is still not enough. The waste newspaper can be used to write with a brush, and children can be used to fold toys. It is also a good fire starter,......."


    Zheng Bo is eloquent and tells the benefits of waste newspapers one by one. He thinks he doesn''t use newspapers less to do these things.


    "In addition, newspapers and periodicals have one of the biggest uses, that is, going to the toilet," Zheng Bo said with some difficulty.


    "Going to the toilet?" Zheng and his wife frowned when they heard this indecent story.


    Zheng Bo said awkwardly, "you two don''t know. In the past, going to the bathroom was very boring. Now there are newspapers. Many people have formed the habit of going to the bathroom with several newspapers. They often squat for nearly half an hour until they finish reading the newspapers. Ink magazines also have comics. Even illiterate people like to go to the bathroom with ink magazines."


    Merton didn''t expect to start the toilet culture in advance when he founded the newspaper. Before the newspaper appeared, it was very boring and smelly to go to the toilet, and most people hurried. After having the newspaper, they couldn''t imagine that they would stay in the toilet for such a long time. Watching the ink magazine was no longer so boring, even a small advertisement, The smell around seemed to disappear without a trace, and he didn''t get up until he saw it all or felt numb.


    "Ah!" Wei Si''an was stunned. He didn''t expect that the defeat of Confucian magazine to Mo magazine was such a trivial matter.


    "More importantly, after people use the toilet, they tear off a page of newspaper and wipe their ass. people only hate that waste newspapers are not enough. When they see twice the number of pages of ink magazines, they will naturally give priority to buying them." Zheng Bo continued.


    "It''s really an evil door!" Zheng Chang was speechless.


    However, he doesn''t know that this is not a trivial matter for the common people. The aristocratic childe usually has silk and other things to use when going to the toilet, while the common people are afraid that only bamboo, leaves and earth lumps. Although the waste newspaper will be stained with ink, it is much better than bamboo.


    Zheng Chang and Wei Si''an look at each other and suddenly understand that they are destined to cooperate. The Zheng family needs a large number of advertisements in Confucian journals to attract a large number of readers of Confucian journals as customers, and Wei Si''an needs to increase income to expand the pages of Confucian journals for people to paste windows and go to the toilet.


    "No, it''s competition with ink magazine!" wesan tried not to deviate, but the picture in his mind could not be erased.

 Chapter 1037

    With the quiet increase of the length of Confucian journals, the originally declining sales volume gradually stopped.


    After the current political news of Confucian journals, there are a lot of advertisements. Although many Confucian people are dissatisfied with this, they can only recognize it by pinching their nose when they think that the ink journals are pressing step by step, and the sales volume of Confucian journals is declining.


    With the hype of Confucian magazine''s advertising, the shops of aristocratic families have discounted and promoted one after another to attract passengers. Coupled with the large amount of advertising fees paid to Confucian magazine, the profits have been reduced a lot. The era of huge profits in the past is gone forever.


    However, the money of the aristocratic family has not been spent in vain. Under the overwhelming advertising of Confucian journals, the shops and workshops of the aristocratic family have gradually stopped the decline. After all, the real rich are still the elite who study Confucianism intensively. They are the main force of consumption in Datang.


    Moreover, Confucianism magazine also specially picked out the problem of poor quality in small workshops, hyped it, and tried to build into a family workshop. The goods are of good quality and high price. Although ink magazines are cheap, most of them are fake and shoddy products.


    The aristocratic family deliberately ordered their servants to buy ink magazine products. After they were deliberately damaged, they did not claim compensation. They reported it wantonly in Confucian magazines, damaging the reputation of small and medium-sized workshops.


    What''s more, after deliberately damaging the goods, some people handed the paper to Chang''an County to ask Ink magazine to compensate ten times the loss. Although these things didn''t come to an end, it also caused a storm all over the city, which greatly reduced the reputation of Ink magazine shopping and small and medium-sized workshops.


    "Your Majesty, it is said that there are many fake and shoddy things in the shopping of ink magazines in Chang''an city. Once the market is revealed, it will surely bury hidden dangers for the people in the pass. The ink marquis is to blame."


    "However, for the sake of quick success and instant benefit in Mojia village, mohou ignored the safety of the people all over the world."


    "Please also order your majesty to thoroughly investigate Ink magazine shopping so that people all over the world can use things they can rest assured of."


    After the aristocratic family and Confucian journals set off a storm all over the city, the imperial Shi of the aristocratic family heard the wind and impeached Merton one after another.


    "Merton, do you have any excuse!" Li Shimin didn''t have the habit of blocking the gun for Merton, and directly pushed Merton to the front desk.


    Morton frowned and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the goods on the ink magazine are not fake and shoddy. On the contrary, they are all high-quality and cheap things that the people need."


    "How fast and economical?" Yu Zhining sniffed. "In that case, what''s the matter with so many inferior products on the market?"


    "If there is a quality problem, the people can refuse to pay. What''s more, some goods can be replaced within three months. Now Ink magazine shopping has been implemented for only three months. Weichen doesn''t know why these people don''t apply for replacement at all unless they are artificially damaged." Merton took a deep look at the royal princes.


    "Even if it''s not fake and shoddy products, these goods are produced by small workshops, shoddy work and low-cost competition, and ink magazines add fuel to the fire. The whole business community in Guannei is moaning and businesses are angry. How can this account be counted on the Mohists!" Yu Zhining angrily scolded.


    "However, as soon as ink magazine shopping and Kyoto express came out, I don''t know how many shops in Chang''an City closed down, and the merchants suffered heavy losses. What about ink sacrifice?" a group of Royal historians said that in any case, the closure of so many shops is really related to Ink magazine shopping, which is indisputable.


    Merton was silent for a moment and said: "Although the collapse of shops in Chang''an City has the impact of Ink magazine shopping, it has something to do with the high rent and living cost in Chang''an city. After all, ink magazine shopping is no matter how cheap it is, it will not sell at a loss, and businesses will also have certain profits. The high rent and difficult living cost in Chang''an city will eat up the profits of businesses, which is the whole reason for the collapse of businesses ¡£¡±


    Yu Zhining frowned and said, "anyway, there is a direct relationship between ink magazine shopping and the closure of shops."


    "Shopping malls are like a battlefield. Even if there is no ink magazine shopping, businesses will also close down. Far from it, even if the Mojia village is so large, it has not been on the verge of closing down for several times." Merton said without hesitation.


    The officials surnamed Wu Qiwang suddenly looked embarrassed. They had something to do with the difficulties of the Mohist school several times. What embarrassed them more was that the Mohist school applied the art of war to the commercial war and beat them down.


    "Business war!" all officials nodded one after another. These days, they have opened their eyes, including technical war, price war and market war. Advertising war is an endless series of business war routines, which is even more enjoyable than sand table military exercises.


    "Even so, the Mohist School owes the merchants of Chang''an city an explanation." Yu Zhining said forcefully.


    Merton had expected: "what explanation is needed, but the survival of the fittest. In addition, ink magazine shopping is not only impact but no benefit to businesses."


    "Hum! Benefits? Is mohou joking?" Yu Zhining sneered.


    Many officials also laughed one after another. The Mohists were so thick skinned that they ran their shops and closed down. They even said it was good.


    Merton explained: "You don''t know that there is not only the ordinary people''s edition, but also the merchant edition. The merchant edition publishes workshop prices. In the past, merchants often needed to go hundreds of miles to purchase goods, which took more than half a month. They also needed to hire manpower, horses, carts and food, drink and accommodation. That''s a lot of money. With the merchant edition of Ink magazine, Merchants only need to book on Kyoto express. As long as they are in a stable shop, Kyoto express will deliver the goods to the door of the store. Moreover, it is directly sent by the manufacturer, with the lowest price and reduced merchant cost. Even if the price is reduced, they can also benefit a lot. "


    "Merchant version!" all officials were stunned. They didn''t expect that Mohist school still had this move. In this way, it is really good for merchants. In this era, the transportation is inconvenient, and it''s not easy to travel a long way.


    With the merchant version of Ink magazine shopping, merchants can save 10 days and a half months of practice every time they purchase goods. Compared with the cost along the way, the little freight of Kyoto express is negligible.


    "If the price is the lowest, it won''t be those inferior goods with poor quality!" Yu Zhining mocked.


    Merton looked around and said proudly, "in this world, only high price does not mean good goods. It is the labor time spent by workers on goods that determines the price."


    "Labor time determines the price. Is mohou joking?" suddenly, many officials were surprised. They heard it for the first time and doubted it.


    Merton looked at the Tang elite with a misty face and suddenly felt a sense of superiority and said, "if you don''t believe it, it may be a little clear after listening to this story written by Mozi."


    "Mozi is close!" all the officials listened attentively when they heard the speech. They may have some opinions on Mozi, but no one questioned Mozi. In particular, Mozi is close in the fire, which is thought-provoking and makes people look forward to it. Unfortunately, Mozi is like squeezing toothpaste.


    Merton Lang: "It is said that Mozi didn''t like reading when he was a teenager. He often threw the bamboo roll and went to play. One day, Mozi met a white haired old woman sitting on a low stool on the grindstone. She was grinding up and down the grindstone with a thick iron pestle in her hand. She looked attentive. Even if Mozi watched her for a long time, she didn''t notice it.


    Young Mozi asked, "old woman, what are you doing?"


    "Sharpen the needle!" the old woman replied without raising her head, still seriously grinding the iron pestle in her hand.


    Young Mozi was surprised and said, "but what you hold in your hand is a huge pestle. The needle is thin and small. Can such a thick pestle be ground into a needle?"


    The wife said while grinding, "yes, the iron pestle is thick and big. It''s difficult to grind it into a needle, but I keep grinding it every day. One day, I''ll grind it into an embroidery needle."


    Young Mozi was deeply touched and said with emotion: "as long as you have deep Kung Fu and grind an iron pestle into a needle, this is the case in the world."


    So the young Mozi worked hard and eventually created the Mohist School and became a hundred schools of thought. "


    "As long as you have deep Kung Fu, grind an iron pestle into a needle!"


    When this remark came out, all the officials of the whole court were silent. They were in high positions and naturally understood this sentence better than others. They were able to occupy high positions not because of natural luck, but because they had to pay too much effort than ordinary people, and finally grind useless pestles into embroidery needles.


    "I deeply admire Mozi''s great wisdom," Li Shimin said with emotion.


    Other people nodded one after another. Mozi kept close and didn''t disappoint them again.


    "These words can certainly inspire students all over the world to work hard!" Kong Yingda sighed. Confucius'' words and deeds have always been an example for students all over the world. However, Mozi''s words are not inferior to Confucius.


    "Thank you for your recognition of Mohism. Mozi''s feelings really benefit people a lot, but I have another feeling." Merton sighed, "in the era of Mohism, how expensive should embroidery needles be, so that the old woman doesn''t hesitate to grind needles with an iron pestle."


    "How expensive the embroidery needle!" all the officials were stunned and angrily scolded Merton in their eyes. This remark suddenly interrupted their feelings just now. One was working hard and very inspirational, and the other was smelly and very indecent. It was a difference between clouds and mud, which made everyone feel a sense of separation.


    "Mo debate once said that everything can be divided into two to look at the problem, and the boy''s view is not wrong, and we are not discussing the price." Merton looked at the bad eyes of the ministers weakly.


    The ministers remembered that they were discussing the price, but they were secretly taken away by Mozi.


    "As you can imagine, it took the old woman several years to grind into an embroidery needle. I''m afraid it''s not too much to sell at least one hundred Wen!" Merton Lang said.


    The ministers were silent. It was extremely cheap for a person to spend three years and pay her 100 Wen.


    "Datang''s forging technology is very mature. As far as the needle casting is concerned, the best blacksmith can forge 80 needles a day, so now the price of Datang''s embroidery needle is one Wen."


    The ministers moved in their hearts. According to Merton, the less time it takes to manufacture goods, the cheaper the price of goods.


    "A penny a piece, the price before that time." Leng hum, an imperial censor, who happened to hear his wife and daughter happily say that the price of embroidery needles has fallen sharply.


    Merton nodded and said, "what you said is right. The price of embroidery needles has dropped greatly because the needle casting workshop adopts the latest Mohist ink technology and assembly line production. Now one person can make 1000 needles. Let alone one penny, or ten cents, those workshops will not lose money!"


    "A thousand!" everyone took a breath and had to say that Mohist ink technology has become a determinant of prices. In recent years, prices in Datang have generally declined, which is directly related to the wide application of ink technology.


    "As you can imagine, an old woman can grind an embroidery needle in a few years, which is worth at least 100 Wen. An ordinary workshop can make 80 needles a day, and an embroidery needle is worth one Wen. A workshop using ink technology can make thousands of needles a day, and ten for a penny. It can be seen that the less time we spend on manufacturing goods, the cheaper the price, not the higher the price The west is good, the price is low, and the quality is poor. "


    The imperial governors looked at each other and let them chew words. Naturally, they were not inferior to anyone, but they were confused about these economic knowledge.


    Only Dai Zhou took a deep look at Merton, and all officials thought that Mozi realized that it was a wise saying as long as the Kung Fu was deep, the iron pestle was ground into a needle, which contained great knowledge.


    However, he believed that Mozi understood from this story that labor time determines price, and his intelligence is not inferior to Mozi, and none of the officials present was aware of it.

 Chapter 1038

    "The people benefit from high quality and low price. I hope the Mohist school can create more high quality and low price things for the people of the Tang Dynasty to meet the needs of the people all over the world!" Li Shimin waved his big hand and decided the matter.


    As Merton expected, the quality of goods produced on the assembly line and the quality of goods forged by Seiko did decline, but compared with its low price, this defect is not worth mentioning at all.


    The people of the Tang Dynasty are generally poor. What they need is not high-priced products made by Seiko, but large quantities of cheap goods at low prices. After all, they are easy to break and can be used if they are careful. If they can''t afford it, they can only sigh.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin undoubtedly stood on Merton''s side. A large number of people obtained means of livelihood, which was a great benefit to the rule of the imperial court.


    "Tell your majesty, now the matter of going to Gaochang has been prepared, and your majesty please order to send troops!" suddenly, Hou Junji suddenly said in a loud voice, which immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Go to Gaochang!" in an instant, the officials were awed. Going to Gaochang is the top priority in the court. This matter can only succeed, not fail. Judging from the closure of several shops, that little thing can be almost ignored.


    "Seriously?" Li Shimin said in surprise.


    "You can make a military order!" Hou Junji said proudly.


    Li Shimin was overjoyed and said, "how about the sand table deduction of the Ministry of war?"


    "The sand table rehearsal is a hundred battles and victories! I will return it with Ju Wentai!" Hou Junji said proudly. Although the sand table rehearsal is magical, it is only a drill after all. Even if it is a hundred battles and victories, it is just a rehearsal. Hou Junji really believes that he has broken Gaochang a hundred times.


    "Good!" Li Shimin patted the case and turned to Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work. "Zhang Aiqing, can the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumen be repaired!"


    Zhang Liang said with a guilty face: "back to your majesty, the time is too urgent. The work department has made every effort to catch up with the construction period. Half of the journey has been repaired, and the rest of the journey has been paved with subgrade, which is enough for the army to pass!"


    "Half brick road!" Li Shimin took a deep look at Zhang Liang. Although half the journey is nearly 800 miles, it still can''t satisfy Li Shimin.


    "The Ministry of industry has stepped up its efforts to make sure that when the army triumphs, it will embark on a new brick road, otherwise it will be punished for delaying the military aircraft." Li Shimin beat Zhang Liang.


    Zhang Liang heavily relaxed his airway: "Weichen, obey!"


    Although the march to Gaochang is scheduled for December, the real battle will be in the spring and summer of next year. I''m afraid the victory of the army will be in August. He has enough time to build and complete the brick road. "


    "Have the three armies been in place!" Li Shimin stood up and said in high spirits.


    "Tell your majesty that the three armies are in place!" Hou Junji said with emotion. He suddenly saw Merton on one side and couldn''t help venting his momentum.


    "Of course, except for the firearm supervisor of Mo offering wine!" Hou Junji''s face was quite wonderful.


    Li Shimin was also quite embarrassed. He glared at Merton with hatred. In the words of Mohism, Merton dropped his chain at the critical moment.


    "Tell your majesty! When the imperial court discussed the western expedition, marquis Mo asked to solve the plight of the Mojia village before starting. Now the troubles in the Mojia village have been eliminated. Is it time to fulfill the promise?" an aristocratic family official said angrily.


    Now the Mojia village has not only eliminated the internal problems, but also defeated the aristocratic family. Since they have no way to take the Mojia son, they have to transfer the Mojia son. Once the Mojia village loses the Mojia son''s seat, their aristocratic family has no chance to get back to the situation.


    For a moment, the courtiers couldn''t help thinking about it. At the beginning, mojiazi promised to solve the problems in Mojia village within a few months. They didn''t think so. They thought that Mojia village was joking, but mojiazi impressed them again.


    First, the Mohist mechanism city made the Mohist village invincible. Then, Mohist magazine shopping and Kyoto express hit hard, and the aristocratic family couldn''t find the north.


    "Merton, what do you say?" Li Shimin looked at Merton and said.


    Merton shrugged and said, "Wei Chen didn''t know it was so smooth. In addition, there was too much gunpowder prepared by the firearms prison, so that the preparation of the firearms prison was only half done."


    In an instant, the officials of the aristocratic family were embarrassed. They thought that the aristocratic family was aggressive and looked like a tiger going down the mountain. However, in only three or five months, the Mohist family let the Mohist family fight and become a paper tiger.


    Hou Junji is also embarrassed. Now that Li Jing has retired, he has been appointed as the head of the three armed forces by Li Shimin. He has a strong army and set out for Gaochang. It can be said that he is in power. Only the Mohist is rebellious and difficult to be tamed. If he was an ordinary person, he would have turned his face long ago. However, the Mohist has a special status. In addition, the fire monitor is extremely important. In many military exercises, the key to breaking the city lies in the firearms monitor, He asked the firearms warden to keep him from getting angry.


    "However, general Hou is ready. How can the boy hold back the three armies? Weichen decides to speed up the whole army of the firearm supervisor, and hold an ink technology exhibition in advance to completely solve the hidden dangers of the Mojia village. The date is set for December 20 and December 21. Weichen leads the firearm supervisor to go out on time." Merton promised.


    "The 21st of the twelfth lunar month!" Hou Junji''s face slowed down a little. The Mohist son was sensible. Although he did not immediately follow the army, he was a month ahead of schedule.


    "Ink technology exhibition, completely solve the hidden dangers of Mojia village!"


    All the officials of the aristocratic family were flustered. It is well known that the reason why Mohist Zi postponed his expedition to years later is probably for the ink technology exhibition. If you want to come to Mohist Zi, there must be great moves in the ink technology exhibition.


    It seems that this is the third board axe of the Mohist school. However, the third board axe of the Mohist school has just cut down two boards of axes, which has caused heavy losses to the aristocratic family. However, the Mohist family has put the ink technology exhibition last. I''m afraid there must be a killer Mace!


    "What do you think of Hou Aiqing?" Li Shimin asked sideways.


    Hou Junji said expressionless, "that book will wait for ink sacrifice at Yumen pass."


    The aristocratic family officials could not help but ignore it. They immediately knew that Hou Junji''s character had been quite dissatisfied with mojiazi. Perhaps this could be used by them. They could not deal with mojiazi directly, which did not mean that others could not.


    "Thank you, general Hou!" Merton hugged.


    "Well, in that case, I will send troops to Gaochang in three days. I will see you off in person." Li Shimin said proudly.


    "I will win this battle in Tang Dynasty!" all officials said in unison.


    This is not all officials boasting, but showing strong self-confidence. Today''s Datang has strong soldiers, sufficient wealth and booming national strength. Coupled with the killer mace of fire weapon supervisor, even civil servants who oppose sending troops don''t think Datang will lose this war.


    This is the confidence that Datang reveals in his bones.

 Chapter 1039

    "My husband is going to march ahead!" Princess Changle said with a worried face in the Mo house. After all, any wife in the world who heard that her husband was on the battlefield is afraid to be worried. Moreover, this time, Merton went thousands of miles away to the west to march to Gaochang. On such a distant road, any accident may happen.


    Merton nodded and said, "now the three armed forces have been reorganized and will start in three days. I''m afraid it''s unreasonable for my husband not to start again. I''ll start immediately after the ink technology exhibition. I''m afraid I can''t spend the new year with you.


    "You should pay attention to your safety. You can rest assured that I will protect Mojia village this time." Princess Changle naturally knew that the matter could not be changed, so she had to say firmly on her face.


    Last time, when Merton set out for Gaochang, Chang''an City and Tian Mou leaked the secret of many Mohist ink skills. This time, she took the seat in person. She wanted to see who dared to hit the Mohist village. When her husband set out for the war, his wife naturally had to guard the door for her husband. At the moment, she just did what a woman in the world could do.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s unnecessary to keep secrets. Except for individual secret recipes, other things are not important. Now the development of Tang ink technology has reached the bottleneck. The reason why I pay attention to this ink technology exhibition is to summarize the experience of ink technology at this meeting and lay a foundation for the next development of the ink family,......"


    Although Princess Changle supported her husband''s cause of reviving Mohism, she knew nothing about Mohism. Naturally, she couldn''t understand Merton''s long speech. At present, she directly interrupted Merton and took him to the door.


    As soon as I got to the door, I saw that several carriages had already stopped, full of gifts were ready and ready to go.


    "Where are you going?" Murton frowned.


    Princess Changle glanced at Merton and said, "where else can I go? Of course, to the palace. I heard that you were unhappy with the prince''s brother a few days ago. Concubine, this is not to ease your relationship."


    Merton''s eyes flashed, and he immediately understood that Princess Changle must have misunderstood, but he said coldly, "why is it wrong for her husband? This is the prince''s injustice first. The mail order is a great good thing for the country and the people, but he cherishes feathers and cares about fame. The aristocratic family makes small plans, and he stands on the side of the aristocratic family."


    "The prince''s brother is not like that. There must be some misunderstanding!" Princess Changle gently advised. Merton and Li Chengqian had a conflict, which made Princess Changle embarrassed between them. One is her husband and the other is her brother. Which one is her close relative.


    Princess Changle took Merton with a reluctant face and galloped all the way to the palace.


    "It''s Changle coming back!" a group of concubines and princesses in the imperial palace were chatting around the empress changsun. They couldn''t help saying in a charming voice when they watched Changle and Merton come.


    "See you, empress mother and ladies!" after Merton and Changle saluted the empress changsun, Princess Changle came forward and talked to a group of concubines, while Merton became a clay sculpture.


    "It''s said that mohou has set up ink magazine shopping and Kyoto express in guanneidao. The goods in Chang''an city are enough to go day and night, even if the palace is in the palace. Imperial concubine Yang''s eyes flashed and said in a charming voice. Although Merton wanted to be a clay sculpture, the empresses didn''t let him go.


    The Yin imperial concubine also covered her mouth and said with a smile: "this palace has heard about it, but I have to say that Kyoto express is exaggerating in Chang''an city. There is one place where Kyoto express can''t be delivered, that is, in the back palace. There is no way for this palace to buy."


    "Yes! It is said that the favorite thing for women in Chang''an city is to shop in Mo magazine. They can not only buy high-quality and cheap things, but also have a sense of expectation of opening gifts. If Kyoto express can be sent to the palace, it will be convenient for us to shop." Wei Guifei smiled.


    Life in the harem is extremely boring. They have nothing to do after living in the deep palace for a long time. In addition, women love shopping. Ink magazine shopping can not only avoid going out, but also shop. It can be said that they have the best of both worlds to solve their dilemma.


    "Ladies are joking. All the goods published in Ink magazine are from small and medium-sized workshops. They are not high-quality goods. In the early days of today, Weichen was impeached by many officials because of this. These goods are acceptable for ordinary people. How can they be used by ladies? If your mother likes anything, just tell her, and Weichen will naturally pay tribute to a group of people in the palace." Merton refused.


    Merton doesn''t want to be involved in the affairs of the harem. After all, if someone takes the opportunity to cause an accident, the Mohists can''t eat and go around. After all, every goods is wrapped in cartons, which is too operable.


    "Yes! You ladies have everything in your palace. Where do you need to buy it? If it''s spread, you think your father is short of money?" Princess Changle naturally understood Merton''s concerns and spoke for Merton.


    Zheng Chonghua sighed: "there are all kinds of goods in the Imperial Palace, but there is no surprise of shopping. In the past few years, there has been no shop shopping in the palace. Now the ink magazine shopping has made the palace find the feeling of long absence."


    As soon as Zheng Chonghua''s words fell, almost all the empresses sighed. Zheng Chonghua had just been in the palace for several years, and they had been in the palace for ten or twenty years. They had been used to this kind of life, but Zheng Chonghua''s words immediately reminded them of long lost memories, and a strange atmosphere filled the legislative hall.


    "Well, the palace is the master of this matter. In the future, Kyoto express can be sent to the Imperial City, but it can be sent to the hands of the palaces only after the palace guards check it." empress changsun waved her big hand and said with a hammer. She has lived in the palace for a long time and can best understand the depressed life of her concubines in the palace.


    "Thank you, empress!" the concubines said with great joy. For them, receiving a package is the biggest source of happiness for the boring life in the palace, which can move them more than any reward.


    "Weichen obeys. In the future, he will certainly order Kyoto express to select the best goods for the harem for your empress to buy." Merton sighed and sent packages to the palace. Although he didn''t know which Kyoto brother would be so honored, he must bear unimaginable pressure, and Kyoto Express has to bear a lot of risks for this.


    "The palace is looking forward to it." Zheng Chonghua smiled mischievously, and the previous grievances were immediately cleared away,


    "Then I won''t disturb the Queen''s banquet!" a group of concubines got up one after another. They got what they needed. Naturally, it was inconvenient to stay in the Lizheng hall.


    After the concubines left, a group of palace maids and eunuchs cleaned up the Lizheng hall one after another. Soon, the figure of Prince Li Chengqian appeared in front of the Lizheng hall.

 Chapter 1040

    "Empress mother, Changle" Li Chengqian couldn''t help showing a knowing smile when he saw two close relatives. Compared with the early death of the eldest grandson queen in previous lives, Li Chengqian has become perverse. Compared with Li Chengqian at the moment, he is more mature and stable.


    However, when he saw Merton, he turned a blind eye, as if he had not seen Merton at all.


    "Prince, your highness!" Princess Changle secretly pulled Merton''s hem, and Merton said hello reluctantly.


    "It''s mohou!" Li Chengqian looked at Merton and snorted coldly.


    "Brother Prince!"


    Seeing that they were going to fight again, Princess Changle quickly said, "just now the prince''s brother didn''t come, and her mother just allowed Kyoto express to deliver packages to the imperial city. The imperial concubines in the harem were very happy."


    "Empress mother is kind!" Li Chengqian complimented. The outside world would take risks in delivering goods to the rear palace, but the eldest grandson still agreed. Although this policy was set up by the imperial concubines of the rear palace, the East Palace also benefited a lot. The situation of the crown prince''s imperial concubines is almost the same as that of the imperial concubines of the rear palace.


    "Merton did a good job this time! The palace heard that people all over the world praised Kyoto express!" the eldest Sun Queen looked at Merton and said kindly.


    There are both positive and negative comments on Kyoto express. Chaotang believes that the goods purchased by Ink magazine are of poor quality and fake goods are in flood. However, among ordinary people, ink magazine shopping is applauded. After all, the goods in Ink magazine are what they urgently need and can afford.


    "The empress flattered and benefited the people all over the world. This is what Mohist should do. In fact, Kyoto express, like Mohist magazine, is also divided into civil version and commercial version!" Morton said modestly.


    "Oh! Is there such a difference?" the empress changsun said curiously.


    Merton explained: "the so-called commercial version is what we call Ink magazine shopping. Kyoto express can deliver goods for people and merchants, while the civil version is sent for ordinary people."


    Empress Chang sun was surprised and said, "ordinary people can also send parcels!"


    Merton nodded: "However, if a mother''s home is in Chengdu and her son is studying in Chang''an, every autumn, when the hall is on clothing leave, the students go all the way back to their hometown and get the winter clothes. Then they return to Chang''an to study. It takes more than half a month. Now with Kyoto express, the mother just needs to make the winter clothes, write down the address of her son''s school and spend money Ten Wen, you can send the winter clothes to the students safely. "


    "This is indeed a move to benefit the people!" the empress nodded. In this way, it can save time and travel expenses, save money and allow students to spare more time to study.


    "If there are relatives and friends in other places, you can use Kyoto express to send gifts during the Spring Festival. For example, this year is approaching, Kyoto Express has opened the Luoyang line. Over time, Kyoto express covers the whole Datang, even if it is thousands of miles away, Kyoto express will have a mission." Merton Lang said.


    "Kyoto express goes thousands of miles to send a little gift for others. It''s too laborious!" Li Chengqian shook his head and said disapprovingly.


    "The so-called gift of goose feather from a thousand miles is light, and the affection is heavy! The gift is light, but the friendship it represents is heavy." Merton said positively.


    "It''s light to send goose feathers for thousands of miles. It''s heavy to love! What''s the allusion?" empress Chang sun asked with a puzzled eyebrow.


    Merton was stunned. He remembered that there was no allusion to sending goose feathers thousands of miles in this era, so he had to move out Mozi''s secret book again.


    "There is another story in Mozi''s secret book. When Mozi was famous all over the world, a friend came all the way from the state of Chu to visit him. When he left, he brought a gift of his hometown goose. As a result, when he was halfway there, he rested by a lake. As a result, accidentally, the goose as a gift broke free and jumped into the lake. Mozi''s friend only had time to catch a few goose feathers.


    In desperation, Mozi''s friend had to put away the goose feather and continue on his way. After seeing Mozi, his friend handed the goose feather as a gift with a ashamed face.


    Mozi didn''t dislike it at all, but was very moved and said, "if you send goose feather thousands of miles, the gift is light and the affection is heavy!" Mozi was not angry because of the light gift, but paid more attention to the friendship with friends! "


    "Mozi''s secret is indeed worthy of its reputation. Empress sun, a high-ranking official, lamented that she also had many girlfriends. Unfortunately, she has rarely contacted since she married Li Shimin, especially since she became the queen.


    "That''s because Mozi''s friends went in person. Mozi paid more attention to his friends'' intimacy than the weight of gifts. Marquis Mozi understood that Mozi''s intimacy was misinterpretation." Li Chengqian sarcastically said that with his knowledge, he could naturally understand the connotation of sending goose feathers thousands of miles, with light ceremony and heavy affection. However, Mozi attached it far fetched to the Kyoto express. Just as he twisted the iron pestle into a needle in the court, he was not moved by the spirit of grinding the iron pestle into a needle. Instead, he thought that the embroidery needle at that time was too expensive. It was violent for such a classic Mozi to get into the hands of Mozi A natural thing.


    Merton arch: "Your Highness, it''s true that the original intention of sending goose feather thousands of miles away is true. However, in reality, once friends go abroad, it''s very difficult to see each other again. How many people will come thousands of miles away just to meet their friends. I''m afraid most of them will say goodbye forever. This friendship has gradually dissipated. With Kyoto express, friends will reciprocate. I believe in the past Our friendship will certainly reappear again. "


    "When the Kyoto courier delivers the package, is it still wrapped in a letter? Since the gifts have been sent, it''s natural to write a letter to contact." Li Chengqian said strangely.


    Princess Changle''s heart clicked. She thought that the prince''s brother must blame Merton''s Kyoto express for robbing the post delivery business. At present, she hurriedly said, "no..."


    Merton stopped Princess Changle and explained: "Kyoto express treats all letters and parcels equally. As long as they are not prohibited by chaotang, Kyoto express delivers them. Such a thing that benefits the people is personally delivered by Mo to his Highness the prince, and how does the prince do it. Now Kyoto express just covers the pass. If it is a post station, I''m afraid people all over the world can enjoy this benefit."


    "The post station is the official weapon of the court. It''s taboo to use the official weapon for private use. The palace did nothing wrong at that time!" Li Chengqian argued.


    Seeing that the two quarreled again, Princess Changle, who was originally going to resolve the contradiction between the two, hurriedly turned around and asked the empress changsun for help: "empress mother, look at them..."


    Empress changsun seemed to have no accident. She ignored the quarrel between the two people. Looking at the anxious Princess Changle, she smiled bitterly and said, "you silly child, don''t you understand now?"


    "Ah!" Princess Changle''s calm empress changsun looked at the two people with red faces and thick necks, but they looked happy and comfortable. They looked like two people who turned their faces. Moreover, with her understanding of them, she had never seen them lose their demeanor and quarrel like this.


    "Although mail order is suspected of public and private use, it is beneficial to the country and the people to send parcels for the people all over the world. We should try our best to do it." finally, empress Chang sun made a decision and ended the quarrel.


    Li Chengqian had no choice but to say, "I will obey my mother''s orders."


    Morton showed a proud look and said, "sending mail is the idea of Weichen. His Highness the prince once said that the post station can also do things beneficial to the world. Please don''t forget your promise."


    "Hum! I don''t need you to remind me!" Li Chengqian snorted stiffly and left.


    When Princess Changle saw this situation, she didn''t know whether she should be happy or hate it. She was glad that her husband and brother had never fallen out. She hated that they had lied to her, which made her worried for many days.

 Chapter 1041

    "Brother Kong, do you think the Mozi and the crown prince will be reconciled this time?" in the East Palace, Yu Zhining looked at the back palace and asked Kong Yingda aside as if nothing had happened. They are both Li Chengqian''s teachers and the leaders of the East Palace officials.


    Kong Yingda avoided and didn''t answer, "His Highness the prince and the Mohist school are just differences in ideas. They don''t have enemies. How can they make up as before."


    How Mozi and the Prince did not have much influence on Confucianism. Naturally, he did not pay attention to these.


    Princess Changle entered the palace together with Merton and invited her Royal Highness the prince to the legislative palace. The purpose is well known. After all, one is a husband and the other is a brother. Princess Changle naturally doesn''t want them to fall out.


    However, the officials of the aristocratic family to which the East Palace belongs are dignified. They finally separated the crown prince and the Mo family, but they didn''t expect that Princess Changle matched them in an attempt to resolve the contradiction between them.


    "That''s nature!" Yu Zhining disguised.


    "The prince is back! Be quiet!" Kong Yingda saw the angry Prince Li Chengqian returning to the east palace.


    When Li Chengqian saw all the officials of the East Palace, he clapped his hands and roared, "the Mo family is so bold that it doesn''t give face to the palace!"


    Yu Zhining was delighted, but his eyebrows frowned and said, "dare you ask what happened to your highness?"


    Lichengqian angrily told about the establishment of the government hall, and all the officials in the east palace were in an uproar.


    "Could it be that the MOH family is so hateful that they even use the power of the empress to suppress the crown prince!" Yu Zhining said angrily.


    Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "my mother has compassion for the people. Only then can I allow the post station to send mail, rather than agree to mail order."


    Yu Zhining suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. A Kyoto Express has been a headache for the aristocratic family. If Ink magazine mail order is allowed again, ink magazine shopping will directly radiate the whole Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid they have no way to check and balance the Mohist school.


    "However, what makes our palace hateful is that mojiazi said that even if our palace agreed to send mail at the post station, he put it forward first, which has nothing to do with our palace." Li Chengqian said displeased.


    Kong Yingda said faintly, "Your Highness, stop your anger and don''t get caught up in the method of the fierce general of the Mohist school."


    Li Chengqian took a deep breath and calmed down a little: "naturally, the palace knows that this is the skill of Mohist. However, at the beginning, the palace refused to mail order for public and private use. Mohist then founded Kyoto express. Now Kyoto Express has been highly praised by the people, but the palace has not made any achievements. Only then did Mohist seize the handle!"


    "The crown prince should not act rashly. You are today''s crown prince. You must act steadily and respond to changes with the same!" Kong Yingda advised aside. The so-called doing more and making more mistakes. The best way to take Li Chengqian''s position is not to do anything. You know that people all over the world are staring at Li Chengqian''s position as crown prince. One small move will cause serious consequences.


    "Don''t be reckless! Our palace is the crown prince, and the post station in our hands is ten times better than Merton. Now it is laughed at by the Mohist. We can''t pull this face down. Tell us how we can let the pressure over the Mohist." Li Chengqian said stubbornly.


    "Your Highness, the post station is a good thing to benefit the world, and Kyoto express is just radiating the pass, which is better than mojiazi." an east palace official advised.


    "Your Highness the prince is the king and the MOH family is the minister. Why bother the MOH family."


    "Don''t be impulsive, your highness. The Mohist family is full of tricks, but the aristocratic family has been hurt many times." an aristocratic family official said with lingering fear.


    Li Chengqian snorted coldly, "there are many tricks. In the face of absolute strength, any tricks are in vain. As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, can we let the Mohist family surpass the prestige?"


    "Your Highness!" the aristocratic family official urged.


    Li Chengqian waved his big hand and said, "needless to say, the aristocratic family has been harmed by the Mohist family many times. If the palace can''t beat the Mohist family, how can we convince the public?"


    The aristocratic family official bowed his head, but a strange smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. In this way, whether his Highness the crown prince has pressed the Mo family, the quarrel between the two will become bigger and bigger, which is the strategy of the aristocratic family.


    Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda frowned. Those who can be selected into the East Palace are human spirits. Naturally, they know the family''s plan and Li Chengqian''s intention to deal with the Mohist family. If Li Chengqian can beat the Mohist family, he can just accept the heart of the world''s aristocratic family.


    "Does your highness have an idea?" Yu Zhining arched his hands.


    "However!" said Li Chengqian confidently, "the palace is going to set up a post station bank!"


    "Post station bank!" the people in the east palace were in an uproar.


    "Does this post bank also have bill of exchange and bill deposit business like Mojia village bank?" Yu Zhining asked.


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "naturally, the reason why the post station bank is called a bank is that it can remit money, save money and loan like the Bank of Mojia village. No, the post station bank is one level higher than the Bank of Mojia village. The palace will play the court and let the post station bank supervise the Bank of the world. This time, I don''t think Mojia Zi will bow to the palace."


    "Your Highness the prince is wise!" many East Palace officials said with bright eyes. If the post station bank can supervise the world bank, your Highness the prince is naturally higher than the Mohist family. This time, let''s see how the Mohist family should deal with it. "


    "Your Highness, the only bank in the world is mojiazi. I''m afraid the prince''s move will be regarded as retaliation against mojiazi and damage his Highness''s reputation." Kong Yingda''s face changed and quickly advised him that this time he was thinking of Li Chengqian wholeheartedly.


    Other East Palace officials also nodded one after another. This is indeed a targeted suspicion and will certainly become a handle in the future.


    Li Chengqian said, "then even the world''s banks are supervised. They treat everyone equally. No one has anything to say if they want to come."


    "It''s feasible!" Kong Yingda nodded and agreed.


    Li Chengqian proudly said: "This time, the palace must change the mojiazi. The post station bank is not only higher than the Mojia village bank in status, but also in scale. First, the palace will establish post station banks in ten roads in the world to connect the world. Second, the palace will build post station banks in every county and even every township. As long as the post station arrives, there are post station banks to benefit the people all over the world."


    "Hiss!"


    Everyone in the East Palace immediately took a breath. Li Chengqian''s plan can be said to be extremely grand. Once implemented, it can be said to be a super project. Of course, its role is obvious. Once successful, it will be a great achievement.


    "This..." many aristocratic family officials changed their faces. Once the post station bank was implemented, not only the Mojia village bank but also the money family attached to the aristocratic family would bear the brunt.


    Now, Ziqian family has just completed the layout of flying money in Datang and paid such a high price to make flying money unobstructed throughout Datang, surpassing the powerful Mojia village bank in one fell swoop.


    Li Chengqian''s move can be said to be a fatal blow to the Ziqian family secretly controlled by the aristocratic family. You know, the post station has an unparalleled network. Once the post station bank is opened, coupled with the official background of the post station, it will be able to kill the Ziqian family''s Bank immediately.


    "No, it''s not enough to deal with Mojia Zi, because one day the Mojia village bank can reach such a scale, and the palace can do better." Li Chengqian paced back and forth in the hall, frowning and thinking hard.


    "Yes, I remember another game about printing money by mojiazi?" Li Chengqian tried to think of it.


    "What your Highness the prince said is the game between mojiazi and Princess Changle about a penny?" Yu Zhining reminded.


    Li Chengqian said: "yes, the world has suffered from printing money for a long time. Since the post station bank supervises the Bank of the world, it should also supervise printing money. In the future, the Bank of the world can no longer lend printing money, and the annual interest rate of all loans can not exceed 3 / 6%, otherwise they will be invalid."


    "Printing money!" everyone in the East Palace frowned.


    "Ah!" many aristocratic family officials suddenly changed their faces. Once the post station bank restricted the printing money, the capital on which the money family depended was immediately destroyed. It is still unknown whether they can survive, not to mention the impact of the post station bank.


    "Yes, the Mojia Village Bank of mojiazi just lowered the interest rate of printing money, but this palace let the world no more printing money. This time, this palace will see what mojiazi has to say?" Li Chengqian said proudly.


    "Your Highness, the prince is kind. Once this policy is put forward, the people all over the world will certainly benefit a lot." Kong Yingda''s eyes flashed. As a Confucian, he naturally doesn''t look down on the Ziqian family. The post station bank can suppress the Mohist School and attack the Ziqian family. It''s killing two birds with one stone.


    "Do you think it''s feasible?" Li Chengqian looked at the people in the east palace with expectant eyes.


    A group of officials had to swallow the bitter fruit and said, "this policy is very good."


    This time, they moved a stone and hit their own toes. If they hadn''t separated the Mozi and the crown prince, they wouldn''t have been so competitive. Now they finally pulled the crown prince to the side of the aristocratic family, but they had to give up the Ziqian family, which collects countless money for the aristocratic family every year.

 Chapter 1042

    The last three years have been a glorious time for the Ziqian family. Although the birth of the Mojia village bank has greatly damaged the Ziqian family''s money printing business, the Ziqian family has secretly learned another way to make money from the Mojia village bank, that is, the modified version of the bill business - flying money.


    After several years of development, Mojia village bank has only increased to ten. Its radiation scope is mainly along the Longhai line. However, there are countless people who need bill business in all parts of Datang. Mojia village bank can''t care about it at all.


    Wu yuanshuang, on the other hand, has joined forces with local Qian family banks to jointly promote the flying money business. As long as you remit money locally, you can withdraw money from all parts of Datang. It can be said that it is extremely convenient and greatly reduces the trouble of carrying money in business travel. Of course, the price is not cheap. It is worth a hundred.


    Although such a ruthless draw makes the travel business bleed, it is the exclusive business of Ziqian family. In addition, there is no semicolon. Although the business travel is painful, it can only be accepted reluctantly.


    "Childe, this is the local account books of this year. Please have a look!" in the Wu mansion, the housekeeper of the Wu mansion respectfully asked Wu yuanshuang, who was headed by Wu yuanshuang, to summarize the income of the year.


    Wu yuanshuang looked at a huge sum of money on the account book and couldn''t help but show a proud smile and said, "yes, the mojiazi never thought that the business he designed for the mojiacun bank would be used by the Ziqian family and earn a lot of income for the Ziqian family every year."


    The bank was originally the forbidden land of the Ziqian family, and the birth of the Mohist son created the Mojia village bank, which greatly damaged the image of the Ziqian family, and the printing money was also criticized. However, Wu yuanshuang stubbornly made the Ziqian family further under the unfavorable situation of the Ziqian family, and the income increased instead of decreasing. Wu yuanshuang naturally has the capital to be proud.


    "These all depend on the foresight of the childe!" the housekeeper of the Wu mansion complimented.


    "Yes, the flying money business continues to operate. This time, I want to let the Mojia village bank suffer its own consequences."


    Wu yuanshuang couldn''t help laughing. Unlike the aristocratic family and other hundred families, Ziqian family ignored their face. Ziqian family copied all the useful things of the Mo family, and even used the tricks of the Mo family to deal with the Mo family. Take the road of the Mo family, so that the Mo family has no way to go.


    "Don''t worry, young master! I understand." the housekeeper of Wu mansion said with a smile.


    "In addition to flying money business, don''t forget that Ziqian business is the foundation of Ziqian family." Wu yuanshuang said.


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion said proudly, "don''t worry, childe. There are only ten banks in Mojia village now, and there are only ten cities that can be sheltered. How many cities in the Tang Dynasty, that''s not what my son Qian''s family has in his pocket."


    The housekeeper of the Wu family said, and presented another thick account book with both hands. In the city without the Mojia village bank, the Ziqian family''s printing money business is still prosperous and continues to earn huge wealth for the Ziqian family. Even in the city with the Mojia village bank, the printing money still exists strongly.


    Wu yuanshuang took over the account book and saw the last sky high wealth on the account book. He didn''t show excitement. Instead, he said with a painful face: "it''s a pity that the money should be given to the aristocratic families. The world knows that the Qian family is a blood sucking gadfly, but they don''t know that the real blood sucking gadfly is those high and self righteous aristocratic families."


    If other people were here, there would be a burst of exclamation. No one thought that the noble family and the dirty son Qian family were so deeply involved.


    The housekeeper of the Wu family said helplessly, "the world scolds the Ziqian family for the high interest rate of the printed money, but we don''t know that the money lent by the family to the Ziqian family is also printed money, and now the flying money business of the Ziqian family still needs the care of the family. We are also helpless!"


    Wu yuanshuang sighed in his heart. To know that the printing money has such huge profits, there will naturally be violent collection of printing money. If the government did not hold up an umbrella for them, the Ziqian family would be unable to do anything.


    The Ziqian family and the aristocratic family cooperated with each other. The Ziqian family obtained an umbrella and charged a high amount of printed money. The aristocratic family not only gained a clean reputation, but also made a lot of profits. The two families benefited from each other.


    "This year''s dividend should be beautiful, and strive to send it to the aristocratic family before the New Year!" Wu yuanshuang pressed down the pain in his heart and waved his hand. In front of the people, Ziqian family is a man eating wolf, while in front of the aristocratic family, Ziqian family is a watchdog dog. When he sees the owner, he wants to wag his tail.


    "Don''t worry, young master. The villain is already doing it." the housekeeper of Wu mansion wrote down.


    Suddenly, a servant came in a hurry and sent a secret letter. Wu yuanshuang opened it and was surprised. He cried out, "is this the day to kill my son Qian''s family?"


    "Childe, what''s the matter?" the housekeeper hurried.


    Wu yuanshuang was dejected and said, "Your Highness the prince has set up a post station bank. In the future, the post station in the world will become a bank. Compared with the post station, I''m afraid Ziqian''s Bank is an ant shaking the tree."


    "The money flying business of the money family?" the housekeeper said in horror. Only ten Mojia village banks will not pose a threat to Ziqian''s flying money business, while the post bank is not. With the post terrorist network, once the post bank is implemented, Ziqian''s flying money business will certainly become a joke.


    Wu yuanshuang said anxiously, "this is not the worst. This post bank can also supervise banks all over the world. In particular, it is stipulated that printing money can not be lent, and the annual interest rate of private lending can not exceed 3.6 percent."


    What really worries him is this. Once the printing money is prohibited, I''m afraid the end of the Ziqian family will come. In the Ziqian family''s view, the annual interest rate of 6 / 3 is like sending beggars.


    "Six thirds, the aristocratic family lent us more money than that!" the housekeeper of the Wu family said sadly.


    Wu yuanshuang''s face was gray and said, "this time, the prince wants to force the son Qian''s family to death!"


    He has just taken over the Ziqian family for three years. Under his leadership, the Ziqian family is booming and the situation is very good. However, when he is satisfied, the situation turns sharply, and the Ziqian family suddenly falls from its peak to its trough.


    "No! How could the prince suppress Ziqian family for no reason? How could the aristocratic family agree? You know, we send a large amount of money to the aristocratic family every year." the housekeeper dared not buy the channel. If Ziqian family was damaged, wouldn''t the interests of the aristocratic family be damaged.


    "It''s not because of the MOH family!" Wu yuanshuang said gnashing his teeth.


    "How is this possible? It''s not said that the Mo family has made a bad relationship with the crown prince. How can they unite against the Fu Zi Qian family." the housekeeper of the Wu family didn''t understand.


    "The two really have a bad relationship, and the Mohist son excites the prince with words. The prince is angry and opens a post station bank to control the Mohist village bank. The Ziqian family is just a city gate fire that affects the fish in the pond!" Wu yuanshuang said angrily.


    "What should I do? That''s the crown prince today! What can I do if there are disciples in the Ziqian family?" the housekeeper of the Wu mansion was powerless. The Zi Qian family thinks that there is no money in the world, but for a very few people, money is powerless in front of them, such as the Mo family, the crown prince and, of course, the emperor.


    "No, there is still hope." Wu yuanshuang said reluctantly, "since your highness is inclined to the aristocratic family, the aristocratic family naturally has influence on it. Wuwang and Qixing are the first of the aristocratic family. Maybe you can make the prince change his mind. At the same time, the Zheng family leader in Xingyang is in Chang''an city. Hurry! Hurry! Prepare a generous gift immediately. No! Take the dividend with you. I want to see the Zheng family leader in person."


    Wu yuanshuang looked eager as if he had grasped the straw. He didn''t believe that the aristocratic family that valued the interests most would abandon them.


    Chang''an City, zhengjiabieyuan.


    "Little nephew Wu yuanshuang, meet uncle Zheng, brother Zheng!" Wu yuanshuang respectfully handed the gift list to the Zheng family owners.


    Zheng''s master didn''t move. Zheng Chang took it and handed it to Zheng''s master.


    "I really didn''t misjudge my good nephew. Under the leadership of my good nephew, the bank business has made such proud achievements." Zheng''s family leader looked at the gift list in his hand, couldn''t help laughing and praised it.


    Wu yuanshuang''s statement is really beautiful. It can be said that it is the most lucrative income of the Ziqian family over the years. This is already more than half of the income of the Zheng family. The Zheng family owner is extremely satisfied,


    Wu yuanshuang nodded and said, "thanks to Uncle Zheng''s care for many years, how can I take credit for it."


    "Brother Wu is too modest! Between brother Wu and his weak crown, he took charge of the Qian family and contacted the world''s banks to remit money to the world. This achievement can be said to be unique in the world, even the Mohist son is far from it." Zheng open said with a compliment on his face.


    Wu yuanshuang can''t help showing a trace of pride. One thing he is most proud of is that he is better than Mo Jiazi in the bank. Now he is mentioned by Zheng Chang and can''t help feeling happy.


    However, Wu yuanshuang said secretly, "however, prosperity will decline. Although the son Qian family is booming, it has been destroyed again. My nephew came to ask for help today."


    "Oh! Brother Wu, do you have any problems. There are few problems in the world that can''t be solved by five surnames and seven hopes." Zheng Chang waved his big hand and said proudly.


    "My younger brother came here for the Posthouse Bank of his Highness the prince!" Wu yuanshuang said positively.


    Suddenly, Zheng''s family leader couldn''t help but look sad, and Zheng Chang was even more chatty. He just said wildly that there is nothing in the world that can''t be solved by five surnames and seven hopes. However, when it comes to the royal family, it is a restricted area of five surnames and seven hopes, and their influence is extremely limited.


    "Nephew Wu Xian is too independent. The bank can''t only be run by the money family. With the Mojia village bank, there aren''t many more post station banks." Zheng''s master frowned.


    "Yes! Brother Wu, the prince wants to run a bank. I can''t stop it!" Zheng Chang disguised.


    "His Highness the prince runs the post bank in person. Isn''t that competing for profits with the people? In this way, the new flying money business of Ziqian family will be destroyed, and I''m afraid there will be no rich profits this year in the coming year." Wu yuanshuang half pleaded and half threatened. He believed that with the greedy nature of the aristocratic family, he would certainly help Ziqian family.


    However, to his disappointment, the master of the Zheng family was unmoved and said, "don''t make a mistake, nephew Wu Xian. His Highness the prince''s move is not aimed at the son Qian family, but to control the Mojia village bank and clamp down on the Mojia family."


    "But the Mohist school is unharmed, while my son Qian''s family is affected by the fish in the pond. What''s the reason!" Wu yuanshuang said sadly and angrily.


    Zheng''s family leader was silent. Naturally, he knew that the reason why Li Chengqian took the Ziqian family was for credit and reputation. The Mohist family had no control over the reputation and could only slowly figure it out. The Ziqian family was the way for the crown prince to quickly obtain credit.


    Wu yuanshuang doesn''t know that the aristocratic family really values interests most. Only greater interests can make them give up their interests. This time, the aristocratic family invests in the current crown prince and the future emperor, which is related to the five surnames and seven hopes for the future. Although the Ziqian family can bring a lot of money, it seems insignificant compared with the future of the aristocratic family.


    Zheng Chang wanted to stop talking. Finally, he sighed and advised: "according to me, brother Wu is a little biased. The reputation of Yinzi money is not good. Now it''s time for Ziqian''s family to wash white. Since then, let Ziqian''s family move from the dark to aboveboard. Why not do it."


    Wu yuanshuang sneered and said, "when you go to the bright place, the Mohist family will pay 300000 Guan to the Treasury. How much does the Ziqian family need to pay, 400000 Guan! 500000 Guan. Once the Ziqian family hands over so much money, I''m afraid it will exist in name only!"


    "Ziqian family should think clearly that there will be no shop after this village. With the flying money business all over Datang, plus six-thirds of the mortgage interest money, Ziqian family''s future achievements will not be inferior to Mohism." Zheng''s family owner warned.


    Wu yuanshuang said bitterly, "this is the lowest interest that Ziqian family has never had. Now it has the highest interest of Ziqian family. Even if Wu is willing, those Ziqian families behind Wu will not."


    "Brother Wu''s chief leader, the Qian family, is afraid of a little opposition. You know, it has become a great event since ancient times. We all make arbitrary efforts to turn the tide. Although we don''t like the Mo family, we have to admit that the Mo family''s control over the Mo family village is unmatched. This makes the Mo family revive. Brother Wu must act decisively if he wants to make the Zi Qian family prosperous."


    Wu yuanshuang looked ashamed and said, "my little brother has just been in charge of the Qian family for three years. In terms of control, he can''t compare with the Mo family. Once forcibly promoted, I''m afraid the whole Qian family will fall apart. I''m afraid it will be counterproductive."


    Wu yuanshuang knows the temperament of those people in the Ziqian family. He can bring benefits to the Ziqian family and naturally become a leader. Once the interests of the Ziqian family are damaged, he will be abandoned.


    The Zheng family leader advised: "At the beginning, some people would have doubted that Mojia Zi used the secret skills of live fish to enter Chang''an city. Now, in the whole Mojia village, no one is convinced by Mojia Zi. I once met brother Wu, so I asked most of them to say that the Ziqian family has always been hidden in the dark. It is not a long-term plan. If nephew Wu Xian can make the Ziqian family white, he can not only prosper the Ziqian family, but also Wu Xian A virtuous nephew can also become an important presence in the government and the public like the Mohist family, and become a new generation of hundreds of sons. "


    "A new generation of hundred schools of thought!" Wu yuanshuang was fascinated for a while. It is well known that the Tang Dynasty will reproduce the contention of a hundred schools of thought. All people of insight will strive for the top, and the best of them will naturally be the Mexican family. When he thought that he might become a hundred schools of thought comparable to the Mexican family, he was not excited? "


    "The Mohist school has a reputation all over the world. Maybe it can keep the wealth in its hands. But the notorious Ziqian family, once in the open, will not become a lamb to be slaughtered and the fish on the chopping board to be slaughtered. Today is his royal highness, and tomorrow is his majesty. Sooner or later, the Ziqian family will squeeze it clean and have no value." Wu yuanshuang shook his head hard.


    Wu yuanshuang doesn''t know that this is an opportunity to wash white. However, the Ziqian family hiding in the dark has long been afraid of the light. What''s more, most of the money in the Ziqian family''s hands are bloody. Once they are liquidated, the end will be very miserable.


    "Is brother Wu willing to see the inheritance of the Zi Qian family broken?" Zheng Chang urged the general.


    "Broken inheritance?" Wu yuanshuang sniffed, "Brother Zheng was born in an aristocratic family. He doesn''t understand people''s hearts. There are countless greedy, arrogant and pretentious people in the world. They are mediocre and lazy, but they want to get rich overnight. The Mojia village bank and the post station bank to be built are indeed rich. However, they have a characteristic that they need collateral to make loans, and those greedy people can''t be satisfied Yes. "


    "As long as the greed of human nature is still there, the Ziqian family will never break the inheritance." Wu yuanshuang said loudly.


    Zheng''s father and son were silent and looked at Wu yuanshuang who bowed to leave.


    "I didn''t expect that this fool could resist the temptation of washing white ashore and refuse to let the Ziqian family surface." Zheng''s family master regretted.


    Zheng Chang didn''t understand: "father? Aren''t Ziqian''s banks all over the country the whole of Ziqian''s family?"


    Ziqian family spent a lot of human, material and financial resources to fly money business, which has just taken shape. This wealth is also an astronomical figure in the view of the aristocratic family.


    Zheng''s master sneered: "Ziqian family has inherited for thousands of years. How can they only have these money? All along, Ziqian family has done business without capital. They prefer to lend with the high interest money of the aristocratic family rather than use their own capital. Every year, Ziqian family gives a large amount of interest to the aristocratic family. At the same time, they will naturally retain a lot of money in their hands. Over time, this money will be astronomical.


    According to the Zheng family''s plan, once the Ziqian family starts to wash white, the hidden money will certainly surface. At that time, the hidden wealth of the Ziqian family will certainly become the fat meat of the aristocratic family, but I didn''t expect Wu yuanshuang to resist the temptation and refuse to wash white, so that the aristocratic family''s plan to draw water in a bamboo basket will be empty.


    Outside the other courtyard of the Zheng family, Wu yuanshuang looked back at the magnificent other courtyard and couldn''t help but show a cold hum: "the world thinks that Ziqian family is greedy and enslaved by money. How can we not know that Ziqian family''s most precious is his money? How can I risk Ziqian family''s money because of the so-called false name of the new generation of hundreds of families?"


    As a son Qian family, he is most sensitive to money, naturally aware of the family''s greed for the money of the son Qian family.


    "Besides, as long as we can keep our position and wealth, how about the decline of Ziqian family? Why should we risk reform?" Wu yuanshuang smiled.


    Selfish, greedy, cold-blooded and mercenary, Wu yuanshuang is the real son of Qian.

 Chapter 1043

    In the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gather, the western expedition to Gaochang is imminent, and the three provinces and six departments are making intensive preparations.


    "If you have something to start, leave the dynasty!" with Pound''s sharp voice, the early Dynasty came to an end.


    "My ministers have a script!" Li Chengqian, who stood at the head of the hundred officials and listened to politics, bowed out.


    "Oh! Prince, come quickly!" Li Shimin said with a flash in his eyes when he saw Li Chengqian out of the line. Li Chengqian is the next generation of successor he has carefully trained. He acts very steadily on weekdays, which can be said to make him very satisfied. On weekdays, Li Chengqian has always listened to politics, studied government affairs carefully, and rarely played. It is natural to be surprised to hear Li Chengqian playing today.


    "My son asked my father to let the post station send mail and prepare to build a post station bank!" said Li Chengqian Lang, handing a fold in both hands.


    Finally! Suddenly, the officials burst into an uproar. The quarrel between the Mozi and the crown prince in the Lizheng hall had already spread all over the ears of the courtiers. Naturally, they knew that Li Chengqian was ready to set up a post station bank.


    "Send mail! Post station bank?" Li Shimin was in a trance. The original post station was a very simple organization for transmitting official documents and information. It swallowed a lot of wealth every year. It was the most weak institution of the Ministry of civil affairs. It was tasteless to eat and a pity to abandon it.


    However, he only traveled for a few months. When he came back, Li Chengqian reformed the post station to deliver letters and newspapers for the people all over the world, which greatly improved the post station''s finances. However, three years passed, and the post station has grown into a giant, including mail and banks.


    Wei Zheng frowned and said, "I heard that the post station mail is a business opened by the Queen''s pity for wanderers all over the world. Naturally, it is beneficial to the country and the people, and the post station bank is for profit. Is it suspected of competing with the people for profit.


    Unexpectedly, none of the aristocratic families originally involved with the Ziqian family came forward, but Wei Zheng, who had nothing to do with the Ziqian family, objected.


    Li Shimin turned his head to Li Chengqian and said, "prince, what excuse do you have?"


    "Return to your father! The post station bank is operating money, naturally for profit, but it is not competing with the people for profit. First, the profit of the post station bank can fill the post station''s continuous losses for many years, turn the post station into profit and reduce the burden on the national treasury." Li Chengqian shouted.


    Dai Zhou nodded. Since the reform of the post station, the Ministry of civil affairs only needs to allocate a small amount of money to operate. Once the post station bank is established, it may be able to feed the Ministry of civil affairs? He knows what kind of gold sucking weapon the Mojia village bank is.


    "Second, the largest private bank is the flying money business of Mojia village bank and local banks. However, the two banks have their own advantages and disadvantages. Although the bill and loan interest of Mojia village bank are low, there are only ten Mojia village banks, which have no time to take into account all parts of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Of course, the business of flying money is widely distributed, but the interest on flying money and bank loans is quite high, and the people are miserable. Once the post bank is established, it can learn from the two strengths. The post bank not only has the most extensive network, but also takes the most preferential bills of exchange and loan interest. In this way, the money and wealth of the world will be remitted to the world, which is naturally beneficial to the people."


    "Your Highness is kind!" many neutral officials nodded one after another. Once Li Chengqian''s move was successful, the world would benefit.


    Li Chengqian said positively: "The Posthouse bank should not only set an example, but also take the responsibility of supervising the banks and banks in the world. A few years ago, the harm of Indian money was announced. However, indian money is still popular all over the world. People are deeply affected and countless families are destroyed. My son begged my father to abolish the Indian money in the world, and all private loans with an annual interest rate of more than 6 / 3 will be abolished ¡£¡±


    "The annual interest rate is 3.6%!" many officials nodded one after another. Compared with the terror of Indian money, 3.6% is already extremely conscience,


    "Why is it 6 / 3? Like the Mojia village bank, it''s not better to have an annual interest rate of 6% to 10%." Wei Zheng didn''t understand.


    "Lord Wei doesn''t know that the annual interest rate of Mojia village bank''s loan of 6% to 10% is indeed very benevolent, but it needs enough value collateral. Even if the borrower doesn''t go to Mojia village bank, there will be no big loss. However, private lending has no collateral. If the annual interest rate is 6%, I''m afraid not many people are willing to take risks to borrow money. If the interest rate is too high, for example I''m afraid no one can pay back the money game in the market. In the end, it will only end in the destruction of their families, and 6 / 3 is the upper limit that most people can pay back, which can not only ensure the interests of lenders, but also prevent borrowers from going to a dead end. "Li Chengqian Lang said.


    "Your Highness, the crown prince has a heart!" when they saw that Li Chengqian was very considerate, they couldn''t help nodding. When the interest rate was low, no one was willing to lend to others, and the borrower was afraid that no one would help. If the interest rate was high, the borrower couldn''t afford to pay back, it would also lead to tragedy. Li Chengqian set the limit at 6 / 3, which can be said to take into account the interests of both the lender and the borrower.


    "If the borrower and the borrower sign a contract in black and white, the borrower will voluntarily bear a quarter or even higher interest?" An official was a little guilty. He was entrusted by the Ziqian family to deliberately look for the flaws of the prince at the court meeting, thinking that the Ziqian family would find a way to break the situation. Once the black and white contract came into force, the Ziqian family could naturally take advantage of this loophole to continue lending money in the future.


    Many officials frowned. Mohism''s trustworthiness has been widely spread for thousands of years. Under the leadership of Mohism''s necessity to sign a contract, Datang attaches the most importance to the spirit of the contract. Once the contract is signed, it will take effect immediately. If both sides sign and borrow at high interest rates, I''m afraid it will be difficult.


    Li Chengqian glanced at the official and said with a sneer: "if there is no way out, no one in the world is willing to bear high interest rates. Although the contract is signed voluntarily by the borrower, it must be forced. Therefore, even if the contract is signed, it is also impossible. The borrower can repay the interest of up to six-thirds of the annual interest, and the remaining interest does not have to be repaid."


    All officials nodded. The so-called contract was signed voluntarily by both parties and should be observed naturally. I''m afraid none of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty believed that the so-called high interest loan treaty was signed willingly.


    "How should I pay back the money I borrowed before?" suddenly Merton made a noise and gave the money family a fatal blow.


    The officials entrusted by the Ziqian family couldn''t help listening. This is related to the interests of the Ziqian family,


    Li Chengqian said forcefully: "as long as the father and Emperor agree, from now on, the highest interest rate in the world is only 3.6% a year. The same is true for those who have borrowed indian money before."


    The officials entrusted by Ziqian''s family were deeply worried. If this went on, Ziqian''s family would suffer heavy losses. However, to his relief, chaotang did not turn over Ziqian''s back accounts and did not continue to investigate the settled loans.


    "Father and emperor, nowadays, private money is becoming popular, and the people suffer deeply. My son and Minister begged to set up a post bank to supervise banks and banks all over the world, as well as private lending, so that the lenders can be profitable, so that the borrowers can tide over the difficulties and have the ability to repay them. In this way, we can achieve win-win results and make the people stable." Li Chengqian solemnly requested.


    Everyone''s eyes focused on Li Shimin. Li Shimin stood up and threw himself to the ground and said, "sure! I''ll leave it to the prince."


    "Thank you, father!" Li Chengqian said with great joy.


    The ministers were not only in an uproar, but no one expected that Li Shimin would agree to let Li Chengqian set up a post bank. You know, once so, Li Chengqian can control huge wealth in his hands.


    However, people didn''t know that it was the embarrassed chaotang finance that made Li Shimin decide to set up the post bank. The spreading brick road was like a gold devourer. This time, Gaochang in the western expedition almost hollowed out chaotang''s family. If he could set up the post bank, he could bring the source of wealth for the court, and he could realize the freedom of wealth again.


    In addition, the Bank of Mojia village and the Bank of Ziqian family are rising in the sky. As an emperor, how can he rest assured that such huge wealth is gathered among the people, and the post bank can supervise the Bank of the world, which is exactly in Li Shimin''s mind.


    Of course, the most important thing is to put an end to the reappearance of Indian money. The Zi Qian family used Indian money to suck blood wantonly in the Tang Dynasty, causing great resentment among the people of the Tang Dynasty, which can make the people all over the world grateful. Li Shimin will not miss it.

 Chapter 1044

    "Shopkeeper Hu, it''s time to pay back!"


    In Xuanyi square, Chang''an City, a group of tough bank thugs are surrounded by a trembling old man and a group of onlookers.


    "Shopkeeper Hu was also urged for debt!" many people were surprised. You should know that shopkeeper Hu is a rich man in Xuanyi square. He is not short of money!


    "Then you don''t know! Shopkeeper Hu was on the side of the aristocratic family and helped the aristocratic family deal with the Mohist family, but who knows that the fortunes of the Mohist family have changed. As soon as the Mohist mechanism city and Mohist magazine shop, shopkeeper Hu can''t sell his goods at all. When he is desperate, he borrowed the money."


    "Printing money!" they exclaimed.


    In the civil society, printing money has the fear of turning pale. Once it is contaminated with printing money, there is usually only one way, family destruction and death.


    "Is shopkeeper Hu stupid and dare to borrow money?" a neighbor said strangely. After the publicity of Ink magazine, everyone in Chang''an city knows that because of the previous harm, who dares to touch money except crazy gamblers.


    "What is printing money, that is, as long as you don''t finish it once, you''ll never finish it! Shopkeeper Hu is so smart that he shouldn''t fail to understand this truth!" a merchant regretted.


    "Shopkeeper Hu is finished!" everyone shook their heads.


    Shopkeeper Hu said with fear on his face, "please be kind and tolerant for a few more days. I really don''t have any money."


    "How many days of grace? If you allow a few more days, it''s not that number!" the headman of the Qian family sneered.


    "You are so tolerant. Master Wang assures me that you should look at the Buddha''s face even if you don''t look at the monk''s face." shopkeeper Hu begged bitterly.


    The banker laughed and said, "if master Wang didn''t guarantee for you, how could you be willing to sign such high interest money."


    "What?" shopkeeper Hu was struck by lightning. He didn''t expect that it was master Wang who plunged himself into such a desperate situation.


    At the beginning, he cooperated with the Mohist village, and the business was booming. However, the good times did not last long. The competition between the Mohist family and the aristocratic family had begun. No one believed that the Mohist son could refuse to inherit the five surnames and seven hopes for thousands of years. Shopkeeper Hu and most merchants in Chang''an city generally did not hesitate to abandon the Mohist family and join the aristocratic family camp.


    With the help of the aristocratic family, shopkeeper Hu''s business can continue. However, the aristocratic family and the Mexican family have been engaged in a business war for three years, which has been extremely fierce. In these three years, the Mexican family has had a hard time, and the aristocratic family has also had a hard time. Although shopkeeper Hu''s business has not improved, it can barely maintain.


    However, with the strong rise of Ink magazine shopping, shopkeeper Hu''s business is extremely bleak. Now, under the temptation of Master Wang, he signed a high interest rate printing money, and finally lost nothing.


    "Ha ha!" shopkeeper Hu couldn''t help laughing miserably. It''s really retribution. He abandoned the Mohist School and stood on the side of the aristocratic family. Now the aristocratic family is the worst one to pit him. After using him, he even wants to rob his family property. It''s like knocking the bone and sucking the marrow.


    "If you don''t come up today, don''t blame us for being ruthless. All your goods, shops and houses will be sold." the leading bank thug forced.


    "If it''s not enough, I heard that your wife and concubine are quite beautiful. Hey hey! It''s also a lot of money if you sell them to the brothel..." the thin thug on the side smiled obscene.


    "Sell the newspaper, the latest special issue of Ink magazine!" suddenly came the sound of selling the newspaper.


    The headman''s face changed and stopped the wild talk of the thugs around him. Now it''s different from the past. The Ziqian family can''t act recklessly as usual. Once there is a case of forcing good people into prostitution, or even a human life lawsuit, they can''t eat and walk around.


    The emaciated thug said bitterly, "you are lucky. If you put it in the past and sold it into the brothel, I would be the first to patronize."


    Shopkeeper Hu was sad. He didn''t expect that he could keep his wife and daughter. What he relied on was the deterrent of his betrayed Mohist ink journal.


    "Sir, do you need to buy an ink magazine?" suddenly a girl Newsboy rushed in and handed a newspaper to shopkeeper Hu who was forced into a desperate situation.


    Shopkeeper Hu said with a tragic smile, "I lost the Mohist school. If I would buy it at ordinary times, it''s a pity that I don''t even have a penny in my pocket."


    "If you don''t, you don''t need money. I think this ink magazine can help you!" the girl smiled and handed the newspaper to shopkeeper Hu.


    Shopkeeper Hu blankly took over the ink magazine. A small ink magazine was like a kilogram in his hand. When he was most helpless and everyone could not avoid him, someone gave him a Ink magazine free of charge.


    "Abolish printing money!" shopkeeper Hu looked at the front page of the ink magazine and was stunned.


    "There is no way out of heaven. The imperial court has ordered to abolish the printing money. The maximum annual interest rate is only 3.6%. I paid enough principal and interest before. I don''t need to pay you anymore!" shopkeeper Hu straightened up and blushed.


    "Abolish printing money? How can this be possible?" the onlookers exclaimed.


    "What nonsense are you talking about!" the thin thug grabbed an ink magazine from the girl newsboy. When he saw the front page headline of the special issue, he couldn''t help feeling excited. A thin newspaper was as heavy as a kilogram.


    Everyone bought an ink magazine one after another. Sure enough, they saw the decree of the imperial court to abolish the printing money. With the decree of the imperial court, shopkeeper Hu finally found a way to survive and never had to bear the printing money again.


    "A penny!" said the girl NEWSBOY, reaching out to the emaciated thug for money.


    "Little girl film, you''re looking for death. You''ve ruined the little man''s good deeds, and you dare to ask me for money?" the thin man hit his hand and saw the duck flying. He couldn''t help getting angry and angry at the girl newsboy.


    "Pa!" the leading bank thug slapped the thin thug.


    "Big brother!" the thin thug lay on the ground, covered his face and couldn''t believe looking at big brother.


    However, the leading bank thug did not pay attention to him, but respectfully bowed to the girl Newsboy and said, "villain Wu Cheng has seen the second young lady!"


    "Second lady!" the thugs were stunned. Why didn''t they know when there was another second lady in Ziqian''s family.


    Suddenly, the emaciated thug thought of a legendary figure in the martial arts house. He had been driven out of the Martial Arts House earlier, but finally he worshipped under the door of the Mohist school, that is Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, and the second miss of the Ziqian family.


    "Great elder martial sister of Mohist school!" shopkeeper Hu suddenly remembered that the woman in front of him was Wu Meiniang, the famous Great elder martial sister of Mohist School in Chang''an city. He betrayed Mohist village and finally saved him.


    The people around are also in an uproar. Naturally, they don''t know the gratitude and resentment between Wu Meiniang and Ziqian family, but he is like a thunderclap to the eldest martial sister of Mohism. I''m afraid only the Mohist master sister who is comparable to women can have the courage to manage the affairs of Qian family.


    "Go back and tell Wu yuanshuang, shopkeeper Hu, I have Wu Meiniang!" Wu Meiniang bullied her airway.


    "Villain, leave!" looking at the Mohist children around Wu Meiniang and the bank thugs led by Wu Meiniang, until today, they can''t do anything, so they feel wise to leave.


    "Good!"


    Watching the usual rampant bank thugs leave in dismay, the onlookers burst into bursts of exclamation. Chang''an city is the best place. Although there are dark corners, most of them are honest people. They most like this kind of bridge section to help people in the face of injustice.


    "Villain, I''m sorry that the Mohist school came first, and the Mohist School rewarded me with virtue. It''s a pity that even if I don''t pay back the money, I''m about to go bankrupt, and the eldest martial sister''s great kindness and virtue can''t be repaid." shopkeeper Hu said with a ashamed face.


    Wu Mei Niang waved her big hand and said, "I don''t act for you, and the Mohist school won''t take you to heart."


    Shopkeeper Hu couldn''t help smiling bitterly. Indeed, the giant Mojia village doesn''t care about his itch.


    "By the way, I just heard that you have a large backlog of goods. Now Ink magazine is holding the annual goods Festival. If you like, ink magazine can take over all of them!" Wu Meiniang seemed to say inadvertently.


    "Seriously?" shopkeeper Hu suddenly felt happy.


    "Of course, but the Mohists can only give you the cost price! If you are willing to wait, you can hand it over to the Mohist mechanism city." Wu Meiniang said.


    Shopkeeper Hu''s goods are his lifeblood. However, in Wu Meiniang''s eyes, they are a small business. She can decide this little thing herself.


    "Yes, of course!" those goods have always been his trouble. The Mohist school has given him the cost price, which is enough benevolence and righteousness. With this money, he can make a comeback.


    Thanks to shopkeeper Hu, Wu Meiniang turned and left. The legend of Wu Meiniang spread again in Chang''an city.

 Chapter 1045

    "Get rid of the disadvantages of the Millennium today!" countless people praised chaotang''s decree to abolish the printing money one after another.


    All along, although everyone knows about the printing money, only through personal experience can we know the terror. Since the ink magazine reported the printing money, it deeply analyzed the essence of the printing money, made the terror disguised by the printing money public, and immediately pushed the printing money with overwhelming public resentment to the top of the wind. This is the scene that today''s abolition of printing money is praised by everyone in the world.


    Many people who were trapped in printing money were ecstatic when they got the news. They gasped heavily and were sweating like they were dead and reborn. They could not get rid of the control of printing money all their life unless ordered by the imperial court.


    "Your Royal Highness is really benevolent and righteous. He first allowed the post station to send mail, and then played the abolition of printing money. Everything he did was beneficial to the country and the people." for a moment, everyone praised Li Chengqian, and even the aristocratic family whose interests were greatly damaged had to praise Li Chengqian. He really took a good move and gained countless popularity.


    However, in the dark corner, Ziqian family was licking the wound alone. This time, Ziqian family suffered heavy losses.


    "Wu Meiniang!" Wu yuanshuang said angrily in the Wu mansion. He had collected another printing money before the news spread, but he didn''t expect to be destroyed by Wu Meiniang.


    "At that time, the second young lady came forward. I can''t do anything, so I can only retreat." the first thug was ashamed.


    "A bunch of rubbish can''t even collect an account!" Wu Yuanqing snorted angrily.


    The housekeeper of the Wu family advised: "don''t be angry, young master. Now the Zi Qian family is at the forefront of the storm. It''s better to do less than more. Besides, the second young lady has an opinion on the Wu family and relies on the Mohist school. If it makes a big noise, it won''t have a good impact."


    Wu yuanshuang''s anger was hard to dispel, but he was not discouraged when he thought of the Mo family behind Wu Meiniang.


    "In that case, I can''t take back the remaining 3 / 6% interest." Wu yuanshuang gritted his teeth. Compared with the interest of Indian money, the interest of 3 / 6% is like a mosquito leg, but the mosquito leg is also meat!


    "Don''t worry, young master." the housekeeper of the Wu mansion said helplessly. The annual interest rate of 3.6% would not have been seen by the money family, but now it has become the last expectation of the money family.


    "Also, what does the aristocratic family say? Are you willing to cut interest rates?" Wu yuanshuang asked the housekeeper of the Wu family. They can only charge a maximum of six-thirds, which is not even higher than the interest they borrow from the aristocratic family.


    The housekeeper of the martial arts mansion felt guilty and dodged: "go back, young master, those aristocratic families are willing to cut interest rates. But......"


    Wu yuanshuang was relieved. As long as the aristocratic family was willing to cut interest rates, the Qian family still had room to make profits. He casually turned and asked, "but what?"


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion bowed his head and said, "the aristocratic family is only willing to reduce the annual interest rate to 3.6%


    "Is this a robbery of the aristocratic family? We only recover the annual interest of 3.6% at most, and the aristocratic family still needs the interest of 3.6%. Is Ziqian''s family going to work for the aristocratic family for nothing? What else do you want to cooperate with? Just shoot and break up?" Wu yuanshuang said angrily.


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion said without expression, "the aristocratic family said that this is the decree of the imperial court. They have not broken the contract. Even if the Ziqian family does not cooperate, they have to follow the decree of the imperial court."


    Wu yuanshuang choked half to death. These aristocratic families are so cruel that they still don''t forget to peel off the Ziqian family.


    After half a ring, Wu yuanshuang calmed his breath and reluctantly accepted the reality: "you tell the aristocratic family that the annual interest rate is 3.6%. Only this time, if the aristocratic family does not cut the interest rate, the money family will return all its principal and no longer cooperate."


    "Yes! Childe!" the housekeeper of Wu mansion respectfully said. He was not surprised by the result. Ziqian family, a powerful aristocratic family, did not have the courage to resist.


    In fact, Wu yuanshuang has always been complacent that he is better than Mohist Zi in the bank, and this time he has been beaten back to his original shape. Mohist Zi can fight against the aristocratic family and win until victory. Wu yuanshuang is just a dog raised by the aristocratic family, and there is no room for resistance at all.


    "But in this way, the bank will lose a lot of money!" said the housekeeper of the Wu mansion.


    "The money is borne by the Zi Qian family." Wu yuanshuang gritted his teeth. Now it is the time when the Ziqian family is in turmoil. The Ziqian family has been suppressed by the imperial court. At this time, we must not offend the aristocratic family.


    And the reason why he compromised so quickly is that he still has a more important thing to deal with, that is, the flying money business.


    This time, the Ziqian family''s printing money business is afraid of a total loss. The only way to recover the loss is to rely on the flying money business, and the flying money business is still the only legitimate industry of the Ziqian family, although this industry has been scolded by countless businessmen for receiving black money.


    "What? Flying money is still worth a hundred and ten, and your bank is too dark!" outside Chang''an City bank, a group of merchants gathered in the bank. When they heard the price of flying money, their faces changed.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, the bank has always been worth a hundred and ten, and the price is clearly marked. Wu yuanshuang has never asked for a random price." Wu yuanshuang, dressed like a noble childe, said loudly. Originally, these businesses have always been managed by the housekeeper of the Wu mansion. Now the flying money business is at a critical moment of life and death. Wu yuanshuang can only appease the people by himself.


    "That''s too expensive! You always have to draw 100 Wen for money. It''s difficult to do business in recent years. I''ll lose money after such a draw by the bank?" a merchant with a local accent frowned.


    Wu Yuan said in a forthright voice, "I hear that you have a Northwest accent, not just from somewhere."


    The merchant hugged his fist and said, "excuse me, childe. I''m from lower Lanzhou."


    Wu yuanshuang nodded and said, "Lanzhou is nearly 1300 miles away from Chang''an city. It''s hard to travel back and forth. As far as I know, even the fastest carriage may take three days. Anything can happen in these three days. In contrast, it''s worth paying this money to ensure everything is safe."


    The merchant in Lanzhou shook his head and said, "although it''s safe, the price is too high. It''s better to change it into a silver ticket and take it back. Anyway, the silver ticket is also hard currency in Lanzhou."


    After three years of development, the influence of silver notes has gradually increased. Silver notes are light and thin, easy to carry and keep, and are deeply welcomed by merchants, even in Lanzhou.


    With the departure of merchants in Lanzhou, many merchants in places radiated by the Bank of Mojia village also left one after another. For them, the use of silver tickets is a little troublesome, but compared with the value of one hundred and ten, this trouble is nothing.


    "Childe, can you give me more discount? After all, it''s too expensive compared with the draw of Mojia village bank." many merchants who still stay in the bank frowned. It''s still too difficult to accept the bill of Mojia village bank, which is tightly worth one hundred.


    The hometown of these merchants is quite far from Chang''an city. I''m afraid not many people know the silver notes there. Even if they are forced to exchange with other merchants, I''m afraid it will cost a lot.


    "As you can see, there are only ten Mojia village banks now, which are only distributed around Luoyang, Chang''an, and the banks that can exchange flying money are all over the Tang Dynasty, ten times as many as the Mojia village bank." Wu yuanshuang gritted his teeth and said, he naturally could see that although these merchants wanted to use flying money to remit money, they were distressed by the high profits, and were watching all the time, as long as he didn''t reduce the price, These merchants don''t have to use it, otherwise they carry heavy money to go home. The risk is too great. After all, the merchants who are murdered for money every year often make headlines in ink and Confucianism.


    The recent Confucian journal brings up the old story of the murder of business travelers on the road over the years. It is the pen of Ziqian''s family. In order to remind business travelers to pay attention to safety, it actually creates panic and secretly promotes the business of flying money.


    When the business trip was in a dilemma, suddenly a news came, which immediately caused a sensation in the business trip and yearned to rush away.


    "What, Mojia village has opened the bill business of the whole Longhai line, and the charge is still worth one hundred." Wu yuanshuang also got the news, which almost darkened his eyes.


    Many merchants were overjoyed when they got the news. The whole Longhai line spans East and West, and can radiate at least 200 miles from north to south. As a result, Guanzhong area, including the whole Central Plains, is under the radiation of the Mojia village bank. Now, despite the great development of the south of the Yangtze River, the Central Plains is still the economic center of the Tang Dynasty, Mohist village bank can say that the most outstanding section of Datang was swept away at once.


    "It''s impossible? Ziqian family has never received the news that mojiazi has built a bank." as we all know, the biggest reason why the bank in Mojia village is so slow is that he will build the safest bank everywhere, which has won the trust of everyone.


    The housekeeper of the Wu mansion said: "it is said that it is a safe newly developed by the public loser. One is an ordinary civilian version. It is said that once it is launched, it is very popular. The other is a commercial version of the enhanced version. He once came to the bank to promote it. As a result, the asking price was too high and was rejected by the childe."


    Wu yuanshuang suddenly remembered that there was such a thing. Ziqian''s family did business without capital. The banks on the surface were empty shells. Where could we use the expensive safe.


    However, Mojia village impolitely used what Ziqian family didn''t use. The commercial version of the safe was extremely heavy and solid, and the safety factor increased greatly, which enabled the Bank of Mojia village to expand rapidly, directly opened up the whole Longhai line, and caused great competition for the flying money business.


    Looking at the loss of one-third of the business trip, Wu yuanshuang could not help gnashing his teeth and said, "Mexican family!"


    The housekeeper of the Wu family smiled bitterly and said, "young master, the Mohist school is preparing for the Mohist art exhibition and the western expedition. The second young lady is responsible for the expansion of the Bank of Mohist village this time."


    "Wu Meiniang!" a trace of resentment flashed in Wu yuanshuang''s eyes. He never thought that Wu Meiniang, who had abandoned it as a shoe and was driven out of the house, would become a big trouble for the Ziqian family and have done it against him many times.


    "Young master, what should I do now?" asked the housekeeper of Wu mansion.


    "What else can we do?" Wu yuanshuang said sadly and angrily. He walked out of the bank and said loudly: "the year-end 50% discount for the flying money business. From now on, the use of the flying money business is worth five hundred."


    Even if the Mohist deposit bank opens the Longhai line, the bank also has the advantage of outlets all over the world. Once the price of flying money business is reduced, I believe many people will choose to use it.


    "It''s worth a hundred and five!" many business travelers are excited. Although it also hurts business travelers, it''s also within the acceptable range.


    Wu yuanshuang was relieved to see that many business travelers chose to stay. However, he was not happy for too long. Another news came and immediately poured cold water on him.


    "His Highness the prince has opened the Datang ten way bill business of the post bank, which is also worth one hundred."


    After hearing the speech, the merchants were stunned and rushed out in an uproar. Soon, the bank was empty.

 Chapter 1046

    "This is impossible?" Wu yuanshuang said angrily.


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion said gravely, "childe, this matter has been spread in the government and the public. It''s true. The post station bank has begun to operate and receive the merchant''s bills."


    "How can Chang''an city be built in one day? Post stations are indeed all over the world. However, it is a dream to build a post bank overnight." Wu yuanshuang was unconvinced.


    It''s not easy to set up a bank. Mojia Zi spent a lot of money for several years. Now there are only ten Mojia village banks. Ziqian didn''t build a bank, but used to cooperate with the banks of Ziqian in other places. Rao is still so. It took three years to build and popularize the flying money system of the whole Tang Dynasty, The prince''s highness can build a post station bank all over the Tang Dynasty overnight, which is simply a fantasy.


    "This matter has spread all over Chang''an city. Is it that the prince has been prepared?" Wu Cheng doubted.


    "No, the prince and the MOH family have only recently become enemies, and such a big thing will certainly spread the wind in advance, but I haven''t got the slightest news. Is it that the prince''s highness also uses the public loser''s large safe!" Wu yuanshuang shook his head.


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion shook his head and said, "no! It''s just to use the safe. I''m afraid it can be arranged in more than one month. According to gossip, this time the crown prince is cooperating with the entrance hall of Shidao and directly borrows the fan treasury of Shidao in the Tang Dynasty as the silver treasury of the post station bank!"


    "How could it be?"


    Wu yuanshuang immediately stayed there and his mind shook.


    The Bank of Mojia village is built with the strongest anti-theft skills of public losers and the strongest materials of Mojia village. It can be said that it is extremely safe. People are willing to trust the Bank of Mojia village and deposit their money in it. Even though everyone knows that there are countless money in the bank, they know that they can only gossip.


    The Ziqian family believes that money is the safest to hide, and the money of the bank is hidden. The bank is just an empty shell.


    In addition, there is another place in the world that is known as the safest place to store money, that is, the fan treasury of each road and government. There are countless money and strict guards in it. No one thought that the prince''s highness directly used the fan treasury of each road and built a post bank overnight without effort.


    "Brilliant!" Wu yuanshuang said sincerely. Of course, he didn''t directly shout Li Chengqian''s words, but sincerely admired Li Chengqian''s brilliant move. Even if his positions were opposite, he had to admire it.


    However, he did not know that Li Chengqian''s move was equally difficult and received a lot of resistance.


    Two hours ago, east palace.


    "I''m waiting to see your highness!"


    The officials who entered the performance hall one after another bowed their hands. They were officials sent from all over the country to hand over to the imperial court. Their grades were not high. They were suddenly summoned by the crown prince and couldn''t help being flattered.


    "Please get up. Today, I summoned you in the palace to ask for something." Li Chengqian said politely.


    The officials who entered the concert hall quickly said in fear, "no! No!"


    Feng Zhidai, the head of the concert hall on Lingnan Road, got up and said bluntly, "Your Highness, if you have anything to do, please tell me. We will try our best to do it."


    "In that case, the palace will not beat around the bush. You know that the palace has recently been ordered by your majesty to set up a post station bank!" said Li Chengqian Lang.


    "That''s natural. The post station is carried forward by his Highness the prince. What he does is beneficial to the world. Once the post station bank is completed, not only the people all over the world will benefit, but also those who are far away from all roads, such as us." Feng Zhi nodded.


    Other officials nodded one after another. Feng Zhidai was right. Originally, the post station communication could only communicate with official documents. They were far away in the capital, and their families were in various roads. It was extremely difficult to communicate. Now even the letters from Lingnan road can go back and forth in half a month, which is extremely convenient.


    Now they have added parcel post and post bank. In the future, maybe they don''t have to go back to each road to get their salaries. They can get them directly through the post bank.


    "The palace wants to borrow the vassal treasury of each road!" Li Chengqian opened the door to the mountain road.


    "Ah! Fan Ku!" the officials who entered the concert hall were stunned, ignored one eye and kept silent.


    "Why not?" Li Chengqian frowned.


    Hearing what Li Chengqian said, Feng Zhidai said with a bitter smile: "it''s not that we don''t want to, but that the fan Treasury is an important place for all channels to store money. If your highness is short of money, it''s easy to say that the villain will try his best to collect it, but I''m afraid no one can explain if he wants to take all the money from the fan Treasury!"


    Li Chengqian smiled angrily and said, "what do you want your bank? What the palace wants is to borrow the vassal Bank of each government as the Bank of the post station."


    "Ah!" the officials frowned. It turned out that the Prince wanted to buy a Pearl!


    "Don''t blame your highness, Prince. It''s not that we don''t want to, but if your highness expropriates the fan Treasury, where will all the money and Fu be placed?" Feng Zhidai shook his head.


    "Naturally, it''s deposited in the post bank. In the future, all kinds of money can be deposited in the post bank. You can take it with you, and you can get current interest. You don''t worry about guarding. Why not do it with one stroke?" Li Chengqian said confidently. In his opinion, once the post bank saves money instead of the fan Treasury, the fan Treasury''s money will not be less, Moreover, it also saves a lot of trouble for each road. Naturally, each road will not refuse, and there is another advantage, that is, the post station bank has obtained rich capital at once, which can be described as killing several birds with one stone.


    However, unexpectedly, each way into the concert hall dodged one by one, and no one answered.


    Seeing this, Li Chengqian continued to increase his chips and said, "I heard that all the roads in the Tang Dynasty are competing to build brick roads, but they are unable to do so due to lack of funds. You can help the post station bank today. When all the roads are short of funds in the future, you can apply for a loan from the post station bank, build the roads first, and then use the annual wealth to repay slowly. Of course, the interest of this loan is very low."


    Many officials who enter the concert hall have a bright eye. Building brick roads is the top priority of each road. If there are post stations and banks to help, they will get twice the result with half the effort. This is a great achievement for each road.


    However, to Li Chengqian''s disappointment, even if the officials were excited, no one said anything. Even Feng Zhidai, who had been flattering just now, dodged his eyes.


    Li Chengqian snorted coldly: "in fact, there is another advantage of the palace. Every autumn, each road sends a lot of people to pay taxes for the imperial court. In particular, the distant roads escort money thousands of miles away. It takes a lot of manpower and material resources. Along the way, it takes a lot of expenses and the fire consumption of smelting silver!"


    (although fire consumption is a term only used in the Ming Dynasty, I''m afraid every dynasty has this behavior.)


    "Fire consumption!" the Taoist officials were shocked when they heard the speech. They couldn''t help looking at each other, and then lowered their heads with a guilty heart.


    "As for the local fire consumption and expenses, we don''t need to list them one by one in the palace!" Li Chengqian sneered.


    Feng Zhidai''s face changed. Lingnan road is far from Chang''an city. The more money needed for escorting taxes every year, coupled with fire consumption, it''s much more fishy.


    "However, with the post bank, all roads will no longer have to travel to Chang''an city to escort taxes in the future. Just deposit your money in the post bank, and you can pay taxes for all roads in Chang''an city. What do you think of this benefit?" Li Chengqian looked at the officials entering the concert hall with a smile.


    "This is good governance!" Feng Zhidai felt a cold sweat and quickly echoed.


    "That''s natural. Your highness is always thinking of each way, and each way will naturally live up to your Highness''s kindness." a group of officials entering the concert hall echoed one after another.


    Li Chengqian smiled and said, "in that case, you all write down the situation and use the seal with the palace. The post soldiers who are eight hundred miles away are already waiting."


    Feng Zhidai glanced at a group of officials who entered the concert hall and raised their pen tacitly. Since the crown prince has been so fully prepared, they believe that the managers of all roads will not refuse the crown prince.


    When the people used their seals, a post servant came in, packed the letter and left quickly. Immediately, the news that the post bank was about to open spread all over Chang''an city.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Once the post station bank is opened, but those officials no longer have those obscure income, how can they agree?" the housekeeper of the Wu mansion didn''t understand.


    "That''s the prince. Those aristocratic families are trying to please the prince, and the resistance can certainly be reduced to the lowest." Wu yuanshuang looked at it most thoroughly, and his heart couldn''t help but feel powerless.


    He originally thought that even if the prince opened the post bank, it would take several years, but he didn''t expect that the prince could mobilize too much energy, so he took a shortcut. The establishment of the post station bank was completed directly on the basis of the post station and each vassal bank.


    "The fire at the gate will affect the fish in the pond!" Wu yuanshuang said sadly.


    It is well known that the expansion of Mojia village bank and post bank is the result of the competition between Mojia Zi and the crown prince. However, Mojia village bank is steady and makes every effort to operate the Longhai line. The post bank has ten roads in the Tang Dynasty and has the credibility of the imperial court. The two can be described as win-win. In this competition, the only injury is the flying money business of Ziqian family.


    The feiqian business was established by Wu yuanshuang in conjunction with the local Ziqian family. It is not as good as the Mojia village bank in terms of foundation and the post bank in terms of credibility. However, it happened that it offended a lot of merchants because of charging high profits. Now it can be said that it has suffered its own consequences.


    "Childe, what should we do?" the housekeeper of Wu mansion said in fear.


    Wu yuanshuang repressed his voice and shouted, "what else can we do? Cut interest rates. Tell those merchants that Ziqian''s flying money business is also worth one hundred."


    "Ah! It''s worth a hundred. How can other Ziqian families explain?" the housekeeper of the Wu family hesitated. The reason why those Ziqian families are willing to listen to Wu yuanshuang is that Wu yuanshuang can bring them high reports. Once they don''t have income, those greedy guys may not be so obedient.


    Wu yuanshuang snorted coldly, "if the market is like this, what if they are dissatisfied? Can they still find trouble with the prince?"


    "Yes, young master!" the housekeeper nodded.


    After the advertisement that the business of flying money is worth one hundred is pasted on the gate of the bank, the merchants in Chang''an city are not excited. Instead, they scoff at it and nobody cares.


    Wu yuanshuang waited at the bank gate for a long time, but found that the whole bank was still empty and couldn''t help being silly.


    It is reasonable to say that the bank''s flying money business also has advantages over the Mojia village bank and the post station bank. The flying money business has more outlets than the Mojia village bank and is more densely distributed than the post station bank. Although Li Chengqian has great advantages, he can only hastily lay out ten channels in the world. It is reasonable to say that when the two are drawn into the same situation, there will naturally be merchants who can''t take into account the two to choose to use flying money.


    "Go and find out what''s going on?" Wu yuanshuang instructed Wu Cheng, a banker waiting on the side.


    Wu Cheng took the order to go out. Half an hour later, he hurriedly reported: "young master Hui, about 20% of the merchants are in the Mojia village bank and about 80% are gathered in the post station."


    "Eighty percent of them are in the post station!" the housekeeper of Wu mansion exclaimed. They always attached importance to the post station, but they didn''t expect that the post station should be so strong.


    "Twenty percent? It seems that Mojia Zi has also suffered a lot." Wu yuanshuang snorted coldly. According to his estimation, Mojia village bank has at least another thirty percent of merchants, but now it has decreased by about ten percent.


    "Indeed, the post stations are all over the world, and the post station bank is also arranged on the Longhai line. Many customers of the original Mojia village bank have been robbed by the post station." Wu Cheng nodded.


    Hearing that the Bank of Mojia village was also impacted, the three people felt a little better, but suddenly the meaning was wrong. Even if the Bank of Mojia village was impacted, 20% of its customers were not hurt, but all the customers of the bank were robbed by the post station.


    "No, what''s the matter? Why doesn''t anyone use flying money? Merchants in each city don''t need to fly money, and those far away from the city don''t need to fly money?" Wu yuanshuang didn''t understand.


    Wu Cheng said with a wry smile, "those merchants would rather remit their money to each city first, and then take the money home."


    Wu yuanshuang was stunned and said with a bitter smile, "they don''t believe in Ziqian family!"


    Since ancient times, all schools have regarded their own reputation and reputation as more important than life. The only son, Qian family, is only interested in profit. They don''t pay attention to these at all. Printing money forces the people''s families to break down and die. Relying on banks all over the world, they have drawn a high amount of money, which has long made Zi Qian family notorious.


    "The flying money is over!" the housekeeper of the Wu family said in despair. This year is the darkest year for the Ziqian family. The printing money is banned, and the aristocratic family is unwilling to cut interest rates. The flying money that the Ziqian family has high hopes has also fallen under the joint strangulation of the Mojia village bank and the post station bank.


    no It should fall on its own reputation and reputation.


    "No, we have another move!" Wu yuanshuang said stubbornly


    "Young master, what do you mean? Do you want to reduce the bonus?" the housekeeper of the Wu mansion didn''t understand.


    Wu yuanshuang gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision: "this time, the flying money is free!"


    "Ah!"


    In an instant, Wu family housekeeper and Wu Cheng were stunned. They looked at Wu yuanshuang in horror. What is the Ziqian family? They are mercenary and selfish. However, one day, the Ziqian family suddenly had free interest one day. This is the first time that the Ziqian family has made a breakthrough in the world.


    To put it bluntly, this is a thing that goes against the idea of Ziqian family. The housekeeper of Wufu and Wucheng are shocked.


    Wu yuanshuang said emphatically, "when the Mojia village bank just opened, it gave the bill business free for a whole month, which set up the reputation of the Mojia village bank. Now it''s time for the bank to regain its reputation."


    When Ziqian''s money order business was free, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation. No one thought that the competition for money had reached such a white hot stage.


    However, the final outcome surprised everyone. Even the free exchange of flying money is still rarely paid attention to. Firstly, the reputation of Ziqian family has long been unpopular. Secondly, Wu yuanshuang said one thing well. Compared with the bonus of flying money, business travelers pay more attention to their own money, which is the most important. In the past, people had no choice, The bank can only be exploited by the bank. Now the Mojia village bank and post station bank with security guarantee have naturally abandoned the notorious bank.


    After all, one is a world-famous Mohist school, and each place has the safest bank. The other is a post bank backed by the imperial court. Its reputation and reputation are very fair, while the empty shell banks seem to have little competitiveness.


    In addition, flying money is changed three times a day, from ten to five, and then to one. Finally, although it is exchanged for free, the only bit of credibility of flying money has been exhausted.

 Chapter 1047

    When night fell, the whole East Palace was brightly lit, and the officials of the East Palace gathered. Everyone was waiting for the war report of the first day of the post station bank. This was the top priority of the East Palace recently, but it related to Li Chengqian''s political achievements and should not be lost.


    "80000 passes!"


    When a courier hurried to deliver today''s money remittance message from the courier bank, the whole East Palace immediately cheered.


    "You can remit 80000 yuan in one day. If you draw one hundred yuan, you can make a profit in one day." Li Chengqian said excitedly. You know, this is only the first day of business. He has such proud achievements. Li Chengqian is not excited.


    "Eight hundred thousand dollars a day, and nearly three hundred thousand dollars a year from the bill of exchange business alone." Kong Yingda couldn''t help but smack his tongue. Three hundred thousand dollars is not a small amount, enough to be comparable to the tax of a government. This is an extremely dazzling achievement. More importantly, the post bank has been more than half successful.


    "It''s bad to say that Kong offered wine. The new year is approaching. There are a lot of business travelers returning home for the new year. I''m afraid there aren''t so many bills at ordinary times." Yu Zhining shook his head and lost his mind without victory. The post station bank can''t have so many remittances every day.


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "no, it''s just the income of a post bank in Chang''an city. The money in the world flows with each other. Once all the post banks in the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty operate, the money in the Tang Dynasty can be remitted to the world. From then on, the amount of daily bills will certainly double, and the income of the post bank will also double."


    "Double! Isn''t that a profit of 600000!" the people in the East Palace couldn''t help but be shocked. Moreover, this is only the income expectation of the post bank, which has just opened the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty. Once the post bank opens the post bank in all governments and counties, what a grand occasion it will be.


    "No wonder mojiazi never forgets to set up mojiacun bank, but it turned out to have such terrible benefits." an east palace official smacked his tongue.


    Everyone knows that there is no simple industry that mojiazi attaches importance to, especially the banking business that he attaches most importance to. Even if he pays 300000 yuan, he still has to establish mojiacun bank. When they set foot in it, they knew that the banking industry has such broad prospects.


    "Moreover, it is said that the bill income of Mojia village bank accounts for only half of the total income, and the rest is the loan interest income, which is also not less than the bill income." Kong Yingda took a deep breath.


    In later generations, the income from bills of exchange was almost negligible, and most of the bank income depended on loans. However, in the era of inconvenient transportation in Datang, it was extremely inconvenient for people to carry heavy gold and silver, and bills were the main source of profits,


    "In the future, the post bank will also have loan business, so the income can be increased significantly!" Yu Zhining felt that his brain was not enough. Mojia village bank was only on the Longhai line, and the post bank can cover the whole Tang Dynasty, with more obvious advantages.


    Everyone in the East Palace nodded deeply. Anyone can see how broad the prospect of the post station bank is. From then on, the post station will no longer need the allocation of funds from the imperial court. If it is self-sufficient, it can also have huge profits.


    "Your Highness, since the post station bank has such a huge income, I don''t know how to deal with this income," Kong Yingda said suddenly.


    In an instant, the whole East Palace officials were silent. If it was such money as stamp income, they could still decide to stay for the post station for their own use. However, the bank''s income was hundreds of thousands of Guan, and even millions of Guan in the future. They didn''t dare to make decisions without authorization.


    "Naturally, it will be turned over to the State Treasury!" said Li Chengqian without hesitation.


    "Turn it over to the State Treasury!" the subordinate officer of the East Palace brightened his eyes, but he felt a faint pain in his heart. It could be millions of profits every year. The East Palace gave it up.


    "For thousands of years, the State Treasury has spared no effort to support the post station. Only then can there be such a scale of the post station. Now the post station bank is based on the post station and various vassal warehouses. All the post station banks are used by the court industry. Naturally, the post station bank is also owned by the imperial court. The post station should know the kindness and reward. In addition to leaving part of the profits to support the operation of the post station, the rest should be turned over to the state treasury "Said Li Chengqian in a loud voice.


    "Repay your kindness! What your Highness has said is very true." Kong Yingda punted that your highness needs not money, but fame. Now the post station can not only be self-sufficient, but also feed the national treasury. It is not only the post station''s reward, but also the prince''s reward.


    What he was most worried about before was that his Highness the prince, like the Mohist family, was ready to hand over the profits to the internal Treasury. Now it seems that his Highness the prince decided the ownership of the profits from the composition of the post station bank.


    "Turn it over to the State Treasury! But in this way, isn''t the imperial court competing for profits with the people?" an east palace official wondered.


    Yu Zhining raised his eyebrows and said, "what is fighting for profit with the people? Which of the Mohist and Ziqian family can be called the people?"


    "Yes, as for ordinary people, the post bank protects them from the exploitation of flying money, and enjoys ten times the convenience of Mojia village bank, so that their money can be safely sent home. This is a good thing for everyone." Kong Yingda also made a decision.


    The people in the East Palace nodded one after another. They not only disliked the Mohist school, but also sneered at the notorious son Qian family. Naturally, they would not speak for them.


    "Yes, the Bank of the post station is several times better than the Bank of Mojia village in the hands of the palace, and the scale of the post station is more than ten times that of Kyoto express. This time, I think Merton dares to be presumptuous in front of the palace!" Li Chengqian said proudly.


    "Your Royal Highness, the emperor of heaven, can''t be compared with Mozi!" the people in the East Palace complimented one after another.


    Most of them are people of noble families. They feel much better when they hear that they can suppress the Mohist family and suffer heavy losses because of the collapse of the Ziqian family.


    "In that case, let''s stop here today! We will see off Hou Shangshu''s army tomorrow." Li Chengqian said personally.


    "Farewell, Minister!" all the people in the East Palace asked to leave one after another.


    After the officials of the East Palace left, Li Chengqian looked at the statement in his hand, smiled and said, "my father has been working hard for the military expenditure of the western expedition. I think with this income, I can certainly satisfy my father."


    The next day,


    Suddenly it snowed heavily, and the whole Guanzhong was white. However, it did not affect the army''s journey at all.


    Outside Chang''an City, a large army gathered, and every soldier stood proudly in the snow waiting for the review. The leader of the three armed forces was Hou Junji, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. From Hou Junji to ordinary soldiers, everyone wore a military green military cotton coat, which was the proud masterpiece of Mohist ink clothes. He reached out to the military and people''s love, and put on the military coat, even in the wind and snow, he was not afraid of the cold, This is also Hou Junji''s courage to propose to march in the twelfth lunar month.


    Moreover, now the northwest is blocked by heavy snow, and the road to Gaochang West Turk has been covered by heavy snow, which is more conducive to hiding the news of the army''s departure, which is enough for the countries in the western regions to get the news of the Tang Dynasty''s departure a month later.


    "The three armed forces are ready. Please review them." Hou Junji proudly stood at the head of the army and said proudly.


    Li Shimin looked at the majestic soldiers standing proudly in the snow. A burst of pride rushed into his heart. With such majestic soldiers, it was the cornerstone of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Gaochang was rude to our Tang Dynasty. I didn''t want to investigate it. However, Ju Wentai had an evil heart, destroyed the peace on the Silk Road and repeatedly violated the Tianwei of our Tang Dynasty. Today, I launched a military expedition not for my own benefit, but for the sake of justice between Yiwu and Yanqi, but also for the long-term peace in the western regions," Li Shimin said.


    Although this war is to pull out the cancer of Gaochang on the Silk Road, Li Shimin naturally wants to determine the justice of this war from the legal point of view.


    "Your Majesty is kind!" the generals shouted one after another.


    "Hou Junji, I will hand over the three armies to you!" Li Shimin bowed solemnly and granted Hou Junji a general.


    Hou Junji knelt down on one knee and said, "the last general will certainly live up to his Majesty''s order and will never be a teacher until Gaochang is broken."


    "The three armies listen to the order!" Hou Junji got up, turned on his horse, drew out his long sword and shouted fiercely.


    "Obey the order of the general!" all the soldiers said in unison.


    "Go to war!" Hou Junji said loudly.


    In an instant, the drums were beating, and the majestic team changed in an orderly manner, striding along the brick road that had already cleared the snow.


    Hou Junji couldn''t help but be satisfied. Last time, the scale of the western expedition to Tuyuhun was no less than this. However, last time, he was a deputy general and didn''t stop Fu Yun from missing great achievements. This time, he was the commander-in-chief, and the three armies listened to his orders. He believed that the battle would be like Tuyuhun in the western expedition, holding Wentai''s head and returning, His credit and title must be comparable to his nominal Master Li Jing.


    Hou Junji looked around proudly and couldn''t help being satisfied. However, when his remaining light swept a figure, his heart couldn''t help responding.


    "Mojiazi!" the three armies had gone to war, and only the firearms prison order led by mojiazi made him secretly angry.


    "At this time, I''ll introduce you to Chang''an city. If you make any mistakes in the army, don''t blame the general for his ruthlessness." Hou Junji snorted coldly in his heart.


    However, among the officials, Merton didn''t care about hou Junji''s eyes at all. He couldn''t help feeling when he watched the army go out.


    Many people once thought that the aristocratic family and the Mohist family had been engaged in a business war for three years. Now the aristocratic family took the initiative to stop, and the Mohist family got a hard won chance to breathe. But Merton was so unwise. The peace between the Mohist family and the aristocratic family was only maintained for more than a month, and Merton took the initiative to break the peace.


    However, they do not know that real peace is never expected to be held high by the opponent, but peace fought by knife and gun wars.


    Mohism yearns for peace more than anyone else. However, the lessons of the past millennium have made Mohism never expect peace. This ink technology exhibition will let Mohism end the business war with the aristocratic family, and then win the battle of Gaochang wholeheartedly.

 Chapter 1048

    "This year''s ink technology exhibition will certainly have big news!" a merchant vowed.


    With the approaching of the new year, it is getting closer and closer to the beginning of the ink technology exhibition. This ink technology exhibition about mojiazi has immediately become the hottest topic in Chang''an city.


    "What do you say?" a citizen didn''t understand.


    The merchant said proudly, "you can think about it. Mohist Zi has been dormant for three years. In these three years, Mohist elder martial sister Wu Meiniang has presided over the ink technology exhibition. Although it is also wonderful, it is still a little worse than Mohist Zi."


    Many citizens nodded in agreement. In those days, the Mexican family hosted the ink technology exhibition, which was wonderful. People enjoyed and marveled at the small hole imaging, the artificial rainbow, the prediction of the dog eating the day, including the wooden cattle and horses three years ago.


    "The so-called three years without singing, a blockbuster! This ink technology exhibition must be wonderful, and there will be countless amazing ink technologies. If only we could get an invitation?" a citizen envied.


    The merchant sniffed and sneered: "invitation letter do you know how popular the invitation letter for this year''s ink technology exhibition is? It is said that the ink family just sampled 500 Ink magazine users in Chang''an city."


    "So few?" said the citizen discontentedly. "Can''t the ink technology exhibition accommodate thousands of people?"


    The merchant nodded and said, "yes! The rest are invitation system. Most of them are famous craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty and people from all schools of thought."


    "The Mohist school is too biased. In the past, we were allowed to watch the ink art exhibition, but now they are biased towards craftsmen." Shimin was dissatisfied.


    "Come on! What ink skills can you understand? If the Mohists don''t take care of you, you won''t get these 500 places." others sarcastically said.


    "Those craftsmen can understand it. They are not Mohists," the citizen retorted.


    The merchant suddenly said mysteriously, "did you hear that this time, Mozi not only invited craftsmen, but also Xiangfu and dengling to participate in the ink technology exhibition. Does Mozi want to unify Mozi?"


    "No!" the crowd said in horror.


    However, when people think about it, it is possible that there are three parts of the Mohist school. Now it is like a plate of scattered sand. The dominant family led by the Mohist family has defeated the encirclement and suppression of aristocratic families all over the world with one pulse. When it is officially famous, it is the best opportunity to take this opportunity to unify the Mohist school again.


    People had different opinions and speculated that although there was no exact news, everyone believed that the Mexican family would rather postpone the departure time of the western expedition to Gaochang and preside over the ink technology exhibition in person. This ink technology exhibition must be not simple.


    Outside the east gate of Chang''an City,


    A four-wheel carriage stopped outside the city gate. Surprisingly, it was not an ordinary business trip, but a group of Mohist children in ink clothes.


    "You senior brothers of Deng Ling''s family, Chang''an City has arrived!" the Mohist children driving the car said politely.


    "This is Chang''an City?" Xiao Dengkui, a burly and talented second elder martial brother, was deeply shocked when he looked at the tall and majestic Chang''an city gate.


    "This is Chang''an city. The carriages in Mojia village are really extraordinary." the eldest martial brother Deng long also said with shock. In the early morning, they got on the bus in Luoyang. Now in the evening, they have reached Chang''an city. The distance of 800 Li is as fast as a thousand li horse.


    "You are the younger martial brothers of the dengling family. I''m specially ordered by the master to meet you." suddenly, a beautiful Mohist woman appeared in front of the dengling family and said politely.


    "Elder martial sister!" the Mohist children hurried forward to salute.


    "Elder martial sister, is this the famous Mohist elder martial sister Wu Meiniang?" Deng long and Xiao Dengkui were shocked, ignored and quickly returned.


    "I''m Xiao Dengkui. I was born in the Xiao family in Jiangnan. I heard that Shimei was born in Yingguo government. I think our parents will know each other." Xiao Dengkui saw the valiant Wu Meiniang. He couldn''t help admiring her and hurried forward to climb the road.


    When Wu Meiniang''s face changed, she said coldly, "we are all Mohist children. There is no distinction between low height, high and low. Younger martial brother Xiao should not corrupt the Mohist atmosphere by the bad habits of the aristocratic family."


    As soon as Xiao Dengkui''s face changed, he didn''t expect to be refuted by Wu Meiniang without mercy. He couldn''t help being a little angry.


    "In my opinion, younger martial sister Wu is only 16 years old. There are many older martial sisters present. How can she call herself the eldest martial sister is not based on the identity of the first disciple of mohou."


    Wu Meiniang sneered: "the Mohist school does not talk about the generation according to the arrangement of funds, but about the level according to the ink technology. Meiniang invented silver mirror and cloth tape measure, participated in the design and drove the bridge building machine. In recent years, there are nearly ten patents, which is respected as the eldest martial sister by the children of the Mohist school. Younger martial brother Xiao ranks the second senior brother in the line of dengling family. I don''t know what ink technology can be used to let Meiniang see."


    "I...!" Xiao Dengkui blushed. He just ran around with Yang Siqi in recent years. All his skills are used to communicate, get through the relationship with the aristocratic family, and even his ink skills are not proficient.


    "Elder martial sister Wu''s ink skills are extraordinary. She is really wronged in the new generation of Mohism. The name of the eldest martial sister of Mohism is well deserved. I have no objection to Deng Ling''s pulse. Please don''t be surprised." Deng long came forward to relieve Xiao Dengkui.


    Wu Meiniang glanced at Deng long and said with a sneer, "it''s not a good thing that the descendants of the Mohist family have mixed with people of the aristocratic family. In my opinion, the dengling family will suffer a great loss sooner or later."


    In the dark of the dispute between the aristocratic family and the Mohist village, the Mohist family would rather fight with the aristocratic family for three years than let the aristocratic family control the Mohist family. In addition, Wu Meiniang was originally born in the darkest son Qian family in the aristocratic family. She has already seen through the nature of the aristocratic family.


    Deng long couldn''t help laughing bitterly. Although he didn''t deal with Xiao Dengkui at ordinary times, he was a martial brother after all, and he didn''t have anything to say!


    "You come and arrange the accommodation for the younger martial brother of the first line of dengling family. I have to go in advance!" Wu Meiniang asked the driving Mohist children to arrange the personnel of the first line of dengling family and left without looking back.


    "Please!" the children of Mohism came forward with an unhappy face. Wu Meiniang is the eldest martial sister of Mohist village. These people annoyed the eldest martial sister. Naturally, he doesn''t look good.


    "Thank you, younger martial brother!" Deng long said with a bitter smile.


    The children of the Mohist school who drove the car walked in front, and the children of the dengling family followed behind. Xiao Dengkui was still angry and said, "in my opinion, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school is just like this."


    Deng long frowned and said, "haven''t you heard that Wu Meiniang was driven out by the Wu family and happened to be saved by the Mohist son? That''s why you worship under the door of the Mohist family. You don''t open the pot."


    "I..." Xiao Dengkui couldn''t help but look angry. He had taken a fancy to Wu Meiniang''s beauty and wanted to cling to the relationship, but he forgot that.


    "The Mohist village has no good intention of treating us like this. It is rumored that the Mohist family is bent on hosting the ink technology exhibition this time, and even invited Xiangfu''s one vein. It must be that they want to take advantage of the ink technology exhibition to merge the three veins in one fell swoop." Xiao Dengkui hated.


    Deng long nodded and said, "we can''t help it. Now Xiangfu''s pulse has been bought by the Mohist school. Tian Mou and Li Yun are close to the Mohist school, but I dengling''s pulse is not. I certainly won''t succumb to the power of the Mohist school. Shifu didn''t come this time. That''s why I''m worried. We must be more careful not to fall into the tricks of the Mohist school."


    "Please obey the order of the eldest martial brother!" a group of Deng Ling''s disciples nodded one after another.


    "In addition, when we come to Chang''an City, the most important thing is to see some advanced ink skills. Wu Meiniang and others have seen it just now. In addition, there are also the young generation and the public loser''s public loser Hao, which can not be underestimated." Deng long explained.


    The public loser is an old opponent of the Mohist school. In particular, the public loser Hao has become a rising star in the craftsman world by virtue of the public loser lock and vault. Her fame is directly approaching Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school.


    "Yes!" all the children of the dengling family have a heavy heart. In the industrial world, the three veins of the Mohist family and the public loser are the most influential. Now the other three are at the peak of the sun, but the one vein of the dengling family is not warm. Even if they steal the achievements of the great development of the Mohist family in the south of the Yangtze River, they still have no achievements.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your inn!" the Mohist children who drove the car took Deng long and others to an inn and opened a superior room. Then they were ready to turn and leave.


    "Mojia village is not stingy!" one of the sons of Deng Ling looked at the clean Inn and said with satisfaction. The inn was not cheap at first sight, but Mojia village opened one for every two of them, which was much better than the conditions along the way.


    Xiao Dengkui sneered: "don''t fall for the separatist plan of Mohist school. Mohist school has always advocated frugality, but Mohist school is so generous to us, so there must be another plan in mind."


    All the children of Deng Ling''s family couldn''t help but disapprove. It is well known that Mojia village is the richest in the world. What''s the money of these Inns?


    "Well, younger martial brothers, you''d better have a rest as soon as possible. After tomorrow, we''ll have to explore the reality of the other three." Deng long waved his big hand.


    A group of Deng Ling''s children nodded and said that they were tired all the way. They were already tired and went back to their rooms to have a rest.

 Chapter 1049

    The next day.


    Deng Ling got up early. When they stepped out of the inn, they were immediately attracted by the bustling Chang''an city. They stepped on a bus that could take only a penny, passed the crowded Bank of Mojia village, and finally arrived at the destination of their trip, Mojia organ city.


    "The legendary Mohist mechanism city is hidden among the mountains. It is inaccessible and has many mechanisms. It is an invincible castle. How dare the Mohists call it the Mohist mechanism city." Xiao Dengkui sighed at the blue glass tall building reflecting the snow.


    "Whether it is worthy of the name, you can tell at a glance!" Deng long did not rush to a conclusion and led the crowd into it.


    Half an hour later, Deng Ling''s line of people came out of the Mohist mechanism city. They all looked dignified and said nothing. They were obviously conquered by the ink technology inside.


    "Public loser''s safe year-end promotion, welcome to buy!"


    Suddenly, there was a Hawking sound nearby, which attracted the attention of Deng Ling''s family. When they looked around, they saw that on the first floor of the Mohist mechanism City, several shops were rented by the public loser and sold the public loser''s safe.


    "It''s humiliating for the Mohist family to have colluded with the public loser." Xiao Dengkui said angrily. It''s well known that the Mohist family and the public loser are enemies for thousands of years, and the Mohist family even let the public loser appear in the Mohist mechanism city. Isn''t it leading the wolf into the room?


    Deng long said helplessly, "second martial brother, this is not a thousand years ago, and Mozi won the fight in the chaotang of the state of Chu a thousand years ago."


    "That''s a public loser!" Xiao Dengkui still couldn''t accept it.


    Deng long said with a smile: "public losers can accept it. What can''t you do? Go and see the unique skills of public losers."


    "If you want to buy a lock or a door, or a safe, the public loser can guarantee that as long as you use the public loser''s lock, it is enough to ensure the safety of your door and make people in thousands of doors come in with a smile and leave with a cry."


    When a pedestrian enters the shop of a public loser, a public loser comes forward. Even if Deng Long and others are a notable Mohist dress, the losers of the public losers still have no taboo to avoid introducing the advanced nature of locks.


    Deng long and others observed around. Although they didn''t buy it, the public loser''s children were polite and waved goodbye.


    "The public loser''s memory is really superb. Ordinary locks are like a treasure in our hands, and the public loser''s locks need at least two quarters of an hour. As for the locks combined with the door, it takes at least half an hour to open, and I''m afraid the master himself can''t do anything about the safe." Deng long sighed. What he didn''t know was that he thought they were from thousands of doors, Among the top craftsmen, locks don''t have much secret for them. It''s enough to stop for two quarters of an hour. After all, people in Qianmen can''t stay in front of the door for two quarters of an hour. That''s too risky.


    Ordinary locks are more than enough for ordinary families. As for rich families, the safe is enough to ensure that their property is safe. Just a moment ago, the public loser had at least a dozen transactions, of which at least three are safe boxes of value.


    The heavy box, thick steel bolt and precision lock need triple keys. With the existing tools of Datang, Deng long can''t think of anything that can open such a precise and solid safe.


    "It''s not long before the public losers are thriving!" Xiao Dengkui said.


    Although it is not recognized, the public losers are indeed unique in safety, and their overall strength is far better than that of Deng Ling.


    "There''s only one last stop left, Weishui bridge." Deng Ling''s disciples said silently one after another.


    The party rented a carriage and soon got out of the west gate. The carriage went all the way along the brick road and soon reached a huge construction site.


    "This is the Weishui bridge!"


    Deng long and others were shocked when they looked at the steel bridge in front of them. Today, the Weishui bridge is nearly completed, the main body is fully completed, two towering piers are set up, and huge steel cable suspended bridges span both sides of the Weishui river. Anyone who sees it will be shocked.


    "I''m afraid this is the best bridge in the world!" Deng long exclaimed. Deng Ling''s family has helped build many bridges in Jiangnan, but all their bridges together have no qualification compared with this bridge.


    "Who would have thought that this bridge was built by a man in a wheelchair." Xiao Dengkui looked up at the five storey tall building beside the bridge. Even if they heard the story of contemporary Boya Ziqi in Jiangnan.


    Before, they just listened in front of gossip. When they saw their great masterpiece in person, they understood how much their contribution was.


    During the journey back to Chang''an City, there was silence in the car. When they were in Jiangnan, they couldn''t help being complacent about their achievements and thought that the other three were just the same. However, when they came in person and saw the achievements of one family, they realized that the Deng Ling family was really arrogant. All three of them had made innovation and made great progress, But only Deng Ling''s pulse is still eating its old capital.


    When they returned to the inn, they found that the Mohist children who had been driving had been waiting. Seeing the people coming back, they hurriedly greeted them and said, "you are back. Tomorrow''s ink technology exhibition will begin. This is the invitation letter for the ink technology exhibition. Please put it away. The ink technology exhibition will begin at 3:45 tomorrow morning. Please arrive at the ink technology exhibition in the south of the city on time."


    "Please tell the elder martial sister that I, Deng Ling, will definitely arrive on time!" Deng long and others solemnly accepted the invitation and never showed their pride when they came again.


    At night, the whole dengling family didn''t want to sleep. It was not easy to wait until dawn and get up one after another. All the martial brothers had two dark circles under their eyes.


    With a tacit smile, they washed one after another, boarded the carriage already prepared, and ran quickly to the south of the city,


    All the way to the south of the city, the carriages gradually gathered and soon became a huge traffic flow. The scene was very spectacular. Everyone had only one destination, that is, the ink technology exhibition.


    With a squeak, the carriage stopped slowly, and the ink art exhibition finally arrived. Deng Ling''s children got off the carriage and found that many people had gathered here.


    In addition to the ordinary lucky ones invited, more are craftsmen with rough hands and dark faces.


    "At that time, this place was only the turnover station for mojiazi to sell live fish, and later it was the trading of artificially hatched chicken, duck and goose cubs. After years of development, this formed today''s ink technology exhibition." a Chang''an people took delicious eggs in their hands and said while eating. This is a traditional snack still preserved after previous ink technology exhibitions.


    "And it is said that after each ink technology exhibition, there will be an exhibition hall here, which are all samples of the first generation of ink technology. We can''t miss it." an invited craftsman said excitedly.


    They are craftsmen from all over the world. Although they are well-known, they are limited to the local area. Now they are personally invited by the ink technology exhibition, which is a great honor and represents the recognition of the Mohist school. When they go back, they will be famous in all directions and have countless benefits.


    "Let''s go! Let''s go and have a look at the progress of the ink technology exhibition from generation to generation." Deng Longdao said that the ink technology exhibition is just fun and fun for ordinary people. It is quite commemorative for craftsmen, and for them, it is a step to understand the development of Mojia village.


    When they start with the secret skills of live fish, they follow the flow of people to small hole imaging, artificial incubation technology, and finally wooden cattle and horses.


    "All the breakthrough ink art exhibitions are hosted by Mo Jiazi. In the past three years, Wu Meiniang''s ink art exhibitions have not made much breakthrough. Most of them are the improvement of the original ink art." Deng long said with a calm face.


    Xiao Dengkui sneered: "I said that the so-called great elder martial sister of Mohism is just a false name."


    Deng long shook his head and said, "no, I think it''s a more terrible side. After three years of dormancy, the Mohist insisted on hosting this ink technology exhibition. It didn''t sound for three years. It was a blockbuster. Mohist even improved wooden cattle and horses. But think about this ink technology exhibition, how amazing Mohist''s sound will be."


    All of them were fascinated. They could not help but look forward to and fear this ink technology exhibition. What they expected was to see the wonderful ink technology. What they were afraid of was that once the ink technology exhibition was over, the prestige of the Mojia village would certainly rise to a higher level, and how should Deng Ling''s pulse be dealt with.


    "Let''s enter. It''s natural to know whether the ink family is bluffing or worthy of the name after the ink technology exhibition." Deng longlang said, taking the lead in walking to the venue of the ink technology exhibition.

 Chapter 1050

    When they entered the venue, they saw that the whole venue was full of seats, enough to accommodate thousands of people. It can be seen how powerful the influence of ink technology exhibition is.


    The arrival of Deng Ling''s family only gave everyone a sideways look, while a young man came with a wheelchair, which aroused the cheers of the whole audience.


    "Li Zu and others!"


    "Contemporary Boya period!"


    Li Yun and Zu Mingjun worked together to build the Weishui bridge, which has long been a good story in Chang''an city. Now they came together and immediately everyone gave them the warmest applause..


    "I''ve seen martial Uncle Li!" when Li Yun''s wheelchair passed in front of Deng Ling''s vein, Deng long and others consciously got up and saluted. They had heard about the martial uncle''s deeds for a long time. They just saw the martial uncle''s masterpiece yesterday and couldn''t help paying tribute.


    Li Yun nodded slightly and said, "it''s the first reunion of the three veins of Mohism in a thousand years. It''s really gratifying!"


    "What martial uncle said is very!" Deng long said neither humbly nor arrogantly.


    After the Mohists were seated, many people couldn''t help thinking more about the eyes of the Mohists. It is rumored that the Mohists are ready to take this opportunity to unify the three veins. It seems that this matter is not groundless.


    However, the arrival of another team of people surprised everyone. The leader was the famous Gongshu Hong in Chang''an city. Behind him was the rising star of the industry, Gongshu Hao.


    "Public losers are also invited."


    "What''s the matter with the Mohist school? If you want to unify the industry, you have too much appetite!"


    Everyone was in an uproar, talking and guessing.


    The other hundred people have a heavy face. The strength of a Mojia village is strong enough. If we let the Mojia son unify the industry, it will be OK.


    Historian Yan shigu couldn''t help shaking his head and said with a wry smile, "the Mohist school invited me to come. Did he want me to record this moment in the annals of history?"


    It has to be said that if the Mohists take this opportunity, whether it is unified Mohism and unified industry, it will be a heavy color in the history books.


    Although Yan shigu was dissatisfied, he still dutifully prepared paper and pen to record this historical moment.


    "Dong!"


    With the sound of a drum, a proud figure slowly appeared in the center of the ink technology exhibition, even if there was no future searchlight, but people were the focus of the audience.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Deng long and others were shocked and blurted out.


    "You are welcome to visit this ink art exhibition. It''s a great honor to represent the Mojia village in xiamerton." Merton looked around and said loudly.


    In an instant, the audience applauded and the ink technology exhibition officially began.


    "The Mohist ink art exhibition has been established for several times, and countless ink skills emerge every year. Maybe someone will ask, I also want to study ink technology. I don''t have to worry about eating and drinking with patents, but I don''t know where to start." Merton faced the people and stood up.


    Many people burst into laughter. The continuous ink skills of Mohists really moved them. However, when they wanted to study ink skills, they were confused and had no way to start.


    Deng long could not help feeling his head in embarrassment. Merton almost talked about his heart. As the eldest martial brother of Deng Ling''s family, he watched the other two veins rise. Naturally, he also wanted to study the world-famous ink technology and revitalize Deng Ling''s family. He used to think hard and specialize in ink technology, but so far he has no clue.


    Merton said, "the so-called ink technology comes from life but serves life. What is life is just food, clothing, housing and transportation. Today''s first ink technology is related to eating."


    "It has something to do with eating. Is it because of the delicious food like cake? When did my Mohist family become a cook?" Xiao Dengkui snorted coldly.


    Deng long shook his head and said, "look at it first. The Mohist school can''t be underestimated."


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, a beautiful figure pushing a table with a pulley appeared in the sight of everyone.


    "Elder martial sister of the Mohist school!" a shout came from the crowd. She was Wu Meiniang, the first disciple of the Mohist school.


    "Wu Meiniang!" Xiao Dengkui snorted coldly.


    Wu Meiniang walked slowly to the front desk and respectfully showed everyone the courtesy of a woman in the boudoir. She was simply an image of a lady in a big family, completely without the previous domineering spirit.


    Merton arched around and said, "this is a disciple of Mo, Mei Niang. I think everyone knows it."


    Many Chang''an people smiled happily. The name of the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school is famous in Chang''an city.


    "Meiniang is impeccable in ink skills. She forgets to eat and sleep. Even the men in Mojia village can''t match." Merton praised.


    "Thank you, master!" Wu Meiniang said with a naughty smile.


    As soon as Merton''s words turned, she said helplessly: "however, no one is perfect. Meiniang has always been obsessed with ink technology, but she has never cooked once and never worked as a female worker. Naturally, someone in the Mohist school will take care of it. If she gets married in the future, I''m afraid it''s against women''s morality and will not be welcomed."


    When Wu Meiniang heard the speech, she couldn''t help Xiafei''s cheeks and covered her face with shame.


    Everyone laughed loudly and could see the shy but rare miracle of the powerful senior sister of the Mohist school.


    "So as a master, I''ve been working hard all day and night, and finally made a set of machinery with ink skills, so that my apprentice won''t even be able to cook after he gets married." Merton laughed.


    Many people smiled and naturally knew that Merton was joking. Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, has many patents. Only the silver mirror that sells well in Datang brings her a lot of benefits every year. I''m afraid not many people present are worth more than Wu Meiniang.


    Before Wu Meiniang came onto the stage, she stretched out her hand to lift the red silk on the machine. She saw a machine the size of a foot square on the strip table, and a round wheel with a rocker connected to two iron bars. The structure was very simple.


    "As far as I know, ordinary women need to roll noodles with a huge rolling pin and then cut them with a knife. The noodles made by skilled women are thin and delicious. The fish aunt of Mo mansion is one of the best." Merton Lang said.


    Aunt fish under the stand was surprised to hear the young master mention herself.


    "The noodles cut by women with poor skills are thick and thick, and their fingers are not protected." everyone nodded one after another. It is well known that many women who are new to cooking cut their fingers.


    "The machine in front of the apprentice is a special machine for pressing noodles. Even people who have never cooked can easily control it. They can make standard noodles with a thickness of no less than one millimetre, which is not inferior to the best cook, and the speed is several times faster than rolling noodles." Murton Lang said.


    "Noodle press!" everyone was stunned. They didn''t expect that what Mozi solemnly introduced was such a useful machine.


    Wu Meiniang, who had never cooked a meal, kept shaking the disc handle in one hand and putting noodles in the other hand. After a while, a plate of fresh noodles was made in full view of the public.


    Merton heavily loosened his airway: "I''m relieved at last."


    Wu Meiniang was so angry that she turned around and ignored the master.


    Merton picked up the freshly baked noodles and said loudly to the people: "the little apprentice is only one person. Naturally, he can eat with a little noodles. However, as far as Mo knows, many families live together with large families. The women who are responsible for cooking often work from morning to night and don''t stop for a moment. With this machine, one person is enough to supply dozens of families with hundreds of people to eat noodles."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, many people couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. As Merton said, most of Datang live together in large families and have a large population. I''m afraid this noodle pressing machine is so convenient, which is the gospel of the cook!


    "It''s convenient, safe, time-saving, labor-saving and durable. This is ink technology. Mo believes that within ten years, the people of the Tang Dynasty north of the Yangtze River must have a noodle press." Merton vowed.


    Many merchants have bright eyes. There are millions of households in Datang, north of the Yangtze River. If every household needs one, it is millions of noodle pressing machines. What a huge business it will be.


    "Why is it north of the Yangtze River? Could it be that the Mohists still hate Jiangnan and are unwilling to sell the noodle press to Jiangnan?" Xiao Dengkui said angrily.


    Deng long said faintly: "there are many noodles in the north of the Yangtze River. There is no need to use this noodle machine to eat rice in the south of the Yangtze River."


    Xiao Dengkui couldn''t help but look angry and couldn''t speak.


    But Deng long couldn''t help thinking. Looking at the simple noodle press, it has a huge prospect of millions of sets. Only when the world needs it urgently, the world can repay you thousands of times.

 Chapter 1051

    Merton suddenly changed his tone and said, "the noodle pressing machine can be said to be a blessing for women, but it''s not necessarily for men. With this machine, noodle making has changed from technical work to coolie work in the future. I''m afraid the task of pressing noodles will be borne by men. I hope you don''t blame me!"


    The audience in the stands couldn''t help laughing bitterly. According to the design of the noodle machine, just shake the handle hard to press the noodles. What mojiazi said is really possible.


    "Gentlemen cook far away, a group of vulgar people!" a scholar said contemptuously when he heard Merton talking about men making noodles.


    "Young student, you must not be married! When you get married, you will understand that a husband won''t let his wife work too hard." a dark craftsman smiled at the scholar. In the past, they knew nothing about cooking and naturally could not help. Now with this machine, I believe every man would do so if his wife could not be tired.


    "In addition, Mo can provide you with a business. For example, in Chang''an City, there are a dense population, and even many women do the same work. They don''t have much time to cook noodles at all. If someone buys a machine, rents a stall in the vegetable market, specializes in pressing noodles and selling noodles, Mo can''t guarantee that it will be a problem to support his family." Merton Lang said.


    Suddenly, many people nodded secretly. Compared with the price of noodle pressing machine, it is not cheap. It is not worth buying a noodle pressing machine for families with a small population. If there are really noodles made in the market and buy some noodles when buying vegetables, wouldn''t it be extremely convenient.


    I can''t guarantee anything else, but this noodle business is absolutely feasible in Chang''an City, and it can spread to the whole Tang Dynasty in the future.


    "This must be another explosion." Zheng Bo couldn''t help lamenting among the audience.


    The Mohist family once said that they would solve the problems in the Mohist village within a few months. Obviously, the main play is on this Mohist technology exhibition.


    Sure enough, the MOH family didn''t disappoint them. It was a necessary thing for every family. From the eyes of Zheng Bo''s old shopkeeper, it can be seen that once this noodle pressing machine was out, it must sell well in the Tang Dynasty.


    The strength of Mohism has increased again. This time, the aristocratic family had no goods to compete with, so they could only watch the Mohist family grow continuously.


    "Why didn''t we expect such a simple machine?" more craftsmen sighed. The noodle press has a simple structure and is clear at a glance. If they can have this patent, they will have no worries about eating and drinking all their life.


    Xiao Dengkui said angrily, "Damn, I wasn''t born in the North!"


    Xiao Dengkui was jealous of the broad prospect of the noodle press. If he was born in the north, maybe he was the one who invented the machine. How much money can he earn for his family!


    Li Yun looked at him in surprise, shook his head and said, "it''s easier to know than to do, let alone invent."


    Li Yun just exhorted on one side, while Zu Mingjun directly went back and said, "since Deng Ling''s family is in Jiangnan, why not build a cooking machine for Jiangnan."


    Xiao Dengkui immediately blushed and talked.


    "The Mohists have new ink skills again." suddenly a cry came, which relieved Xiao Dengkui.


    Everyone looked up at the ink technology exhibition center and saw Merton Lang''s voice: "I''m disappointed. This time, what Mo recommended is not a new ink technology, but an ink technology three years ago!"


    "Ink technique three years ago!" everyone was stunned. Three years ago, it was the last ink technique Exhibition hosted by the ink family.


    "Isn''t it!" Gong Shuhao''s heart moved and blurted out.


    "Young master, have you guessed!" the public loser hurriedly asked.


    Gongshu Hao nodded and said, "at the ink technology exhibition three years ago, the ink family created a unicycle and tricycle comparable to wooden cattle and horses, and also launched an immature ink technology."


    "Bicycle!" the public transport wheel suddenly remembered.


    "Not bad!" Gong Shuhao nodded solemnly. Although there was no mass production of bicycles in Mojia village in the past three years, there was still a lot of outflow every year. In particular, Qin Huaiyu and his three people rode bicycles in Chang''an city. However, bicycles have another disadvantage, that is, they are too heavy and slow.


    The children of those dignitaries even played tricks with their bicycles. They rode bicycles from the top of the gentle slope to the foot of the mountain by using gravity, but they attracted a lot of popularity. It was not until someone broke several ribs and was sent to Mo hospital that the heat of the activity slowly subsided.


    When Merton appeared in front of the crowd pushing a brand-new bicycle, the crowd couldn''t help but burst into an uproar.


    For the second time, mojiazi put his bicycle in the ink technology exhibition, which shows how much mojiazi attaches importance to this ink technology.


    "That''s right! After three years of research by the Mohist children, the bicycle technology has finally reached perfection and mass production has been realized." Merton patted the 28 bars familiar to him and said proudly.


    "The original bulky wheel hub was replaced by the most advanced steel spokes. These spokes are like thin rope. However, they are indeed made of the same material as the steel cable of Weishui bridge, which is caused by the most advanced third-generation steel of Mohism." Merton pushed the 28 bars in his hand, and the spokes of the wheel turned like hollow.


    "This bicycle weighs nearly 50 kg and can carry up to 400 kg, which is enough to carry two adults. An adult can ride a bicycle with 50 kg of goods, which can reach 30 Li in half an hour and only consume a bowl of dry rice in a hundred Li." Merton introduced the performance of the bicycle and suddenly remembered the jokes of later generations about bicycles. He couldn''t help joking: "what horse is needed for this condition!"


    Although Merton said it was a joke, everyone nodded. You know, a horse is expensive. It is also extremely expensive. It needs to feed fine feed. A horse eats more than two adults. It is an extremely heavy burden for ordinary people.


    The bike introduced by mojiazi is very similar to horses, but it doesn''t need to be fed. Anyway, people have to eat even if they ride a horse. It''s better to eat dry food and pedal a bike by themselves?


    "Here, Mo wants to say sorry to his counterparts in the western market. Once the bicycle is out, the price of horses will drop greatly. If you lose money, you can come to the Mohist school, and Mo will give you priority to act as an agent for bicycles." as soon as Merton said this, the merchants in the western market who were originally sad will be overjoyed. The horse business is not easy to do, the price is expensive, and the sales volume is small, Feeding every day is a huge consumption, and the bicycle business in Mojia village has broad prospects, and there is no feeding at all, which is much more promising than selling horses.


    The public loser Hao under the stage was even more bright eyed and said excitedly, "a bicycle is a dead thing. It is not more spiritual than a horse, and the price is not cheap. We need to pay more attention to anti-theft. Children have been inspired and can certainly make locks suitable for bicycles in the shortest time."


    In an instant, people couldn''t help looking at Gongshu Hao. No one thought that Gongshu Hao would design a new set of locks according to Mohist''s bicycle in such a short time.


    Deng Ling could not help being silent. He was conceited one by one, but he didn''t have any ink skills. Gongshuhao realized new ink skills in front of them, which greatly stimulated them.


    "Didn''t the dengling family hate to be born in the north? Bicycles have been in the world for three years and haven''t made any progress. Don''t say you haven''t studied bicycles privately." Zu Mingjun snorted coldly.


    Xiao Dengkui''s cheeks suddenly turned red, and other children of Deng Ling''s family also looked embarrassed. Indeed, as the three veins of Mohism, they had studied bicycles in private, and none of them had any harvest. Even their master Yang Siqi thought that the bicycles made by Mohism were the limit and could not be improved at all.


    However, who knows that the steel used to build the Weishui bridge is used to make bicycles. It''s like killing a chicken with an ox knife.


    No, this bike is comparable to a horse. It''s not too much to call it an iron horse. It''s of great use to both the country and the people. I''m afraid it feels like a sword with a hero.


    "The Mohists just took the lead." Xiao Dengkui said hard in his heart.


    In his opinion, the reason why mojiazi succeeded in cycling was that he made use of the advantages of advanced materials in Mojia village. Without the accumulation of steel in Mojia village, cycling could not succeed at all.


    "The inspiration of ink technology is food, clothing, housing and transportation, noodle press is food, bicycle is transportation, and the most important thing is clothing," said Merton Lang.


    They suddenly realized that Merton''s next ink technique must have something to do with clothes. In an instant, they thought of the new material, cotton, that appeared in Chang''an City in recent years.


    Since cotton was promoted by Mojia village a few years ago, cotton has been widely planted in Datang, especially in Songjiang Prefecture, which is the center of cotton weaving. A large number of high-quality and low-cost fabrics flow out from Songjiang Prefecture every year. The price is cheaper than silk and warmer than linen. It has immediately become the most popular fabric among the people of Datang.


    "This is a flower spinning machine! This is a loom!"


    As mojiazi introduced the functions of these machines one by one, ordinary people listened insipid. However, most of the people present were craftsmen, but they listened with interest one by one.


    The dengling family was proud. After the Mohists left the south of the Yangtze River, the dengling family took over the position of the Mohist village in the south of the Yangtze River, but gathered the children of the dengling family and transformed the flower spinning machine and loom for Songjiang mansion, which was more effective than the machinery of the Mohist village.


    However, when Merton''s words turned, he regretted: "of course, none of these little girls can, let alone women workers. They never sew their own clothes. Aunt Xu prepares clothes for them every time."


    Under the stand, Wu Meiniang was ashamed and fell into aunt Xu''s arms. Aunt Xu lovingly touched Wu Meiniang''s hair. She watched Wu Meiniang grow from a weak girl to a heroic senior sister of the Mohist school. She had already loved her as a daughter.


    "This last piece of ink technique is also tailor-made for small disciples. It can enable a person who doesn''t know needlework to easily sew clothes."


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, the curtain rose, revealing a long square table three feet long and one foot wide.


    "A table can sew clothes. Is the Mo family talking in their sleep?" they frowned, puzzled by a yellowish brown table in the middle.


    Merton smiled and stretched out his hand. He saw that there was a mechanism on the table. After pulling out the board, a black steel machine rose from the table hole and was perfectly embedded on the table. It was the most common sewing machine in the 1980s and 1990s.


    "Mystify!" the people of Deng Ling''s family hummed coldly. In terms of small mechanism skills, Deng Ling''s family is an expert. In their opinion, Merton''s small mechanism is nothing strange at all.


    "How long do you think it takes to sew an adult''s dress, an hour, or a morning?" Merton looked around.


    They frowned and thought that it is common for their wives to sew clothes at home. It is not uncommon for them to sew a good needlework. I''m afraid it may take an hour to sew an ordinary dress. If they ask for precision workmanship and delicate stitching, sewing a dress, let alone one morning, may not be completed in one day.


    "As we all know, aunt Xu is the leading needlework in Chang''an city. Rao is so. It takes two hours for her to sew a dress herself. I don''t know how long it will take to use this sewing machine." Merton smiled and invited aunt Xu to the stage.


    Aunt Xu took the stage, picked up the cloth that had been cut long ago, sat in front of the sewing machine, put her feet on the pedal under her feet, exerted slight force, and suddenly a crisp and rhythmic sound resounded through the whole venue.


    "Da Da!"


    Regular and clear, this is the most beautiful sound in the ears of many craftsmen.


    "If aunt Xu works for half an hour, do we have to sit here for half an hour." Xiao Dengkui glanced at the corners of his mouth and said in his heart.


    Xiao Dengkui also knew that the reason why mojiazi made a sewing machine was that the speed of sewing clothes must be very fast. For half an hour, he had overestimated it.


    However, before he could say a few words, the crisp sound of machinery had stopped. Aunt Xu got up, subtracted the excess thread with scissors, stretched out her hand and put it on. A brand-new dress had been sewn.


    "So fast!" the crowd exclaimed. They saw several pieces of cut cloth sewn into new clothes in full view of the public.


    "Less than half an hour!" Deng long said with a shocked face. His family was poor and his mother lived by sewing. Naturally, he knew the speed of sewing clothes, and aunt Xu sewed a dress in less than half an hour. It was unthinkable.


    Merton nodded: "the clothes that can be made by Aunt Xu are all exquisite workmanship, but aunt Xu has practiced needlework for decades. With this sewing machine, even the clothes sewn by a woman who has just learned needlework can be comparable to the top tailor by hand, and the speed of sewing clothes is ten times that of the top tailor."


    Everyone took a breath and looked at a small machine in the center of the field. Everyone in the world needs to sew clothes. Once the sewing machine appears on the market, it will certainly cause revolutionary changes in the garment industry, and manual sewing will surely withdraw from history.


    "It must be the circle driven by the pedal back and forth that is the key." Gongshu Hong took a deep breath in his airway.


    Merton said proudly: "noodle pressing machine, bicycle and sewing machine are not only gifts given by Mo to the little apprentice, but also gifts to women all over the world. For example, this year is approaching, when we get married, we should prepare these three Mohist machines, and then face the festive horn, turn three times and ring once, so the couple''s life will be prosperous."


    Merton believes that "three turns and one sound" in the Tang Dynasty will certainly become a necessary thing for marriage in the future.

 Chapter 1052

    "Despicable, even confuse these three things with the wedding!" on the stand, Zheng Bo couldn''t help humming and asked the people all over the world when they are most willing to spend money. Maybe there are different opinions, but no matter which family gets married at the wedding, they won''t be stingy with money.


    "This is the usual method of the Mohists! When they sold diamonds, they compared them to love. Today, it''s just a repeat of the old technique!" the shopkeeper of another aristocratic family smiled bitterly.


    However, they have to admit that the Mexican family''s strategy is indeed brilliant. If two newcomers form a small family, they can have a pressure noodle machine to eat, save labor, make clothes, have a sewing machine, travel a bicycle, eat and walk perfectly, and their small life will be prosperous.


    While they were envious, jealous and resentful, they all understood that once the three goods in Mojia village came out, they would burst into flames, and no one in the whole Tang Dynasty could compete with them. Let alone the aristocratic family wants to block it.


    "Perhaps aristocratic families can copy the noodle pressing machine, but I''m afraid no one can make bicycles and sewing machines except Mojia village. This time, there is no rival in Mojia village." Gongshu Hong''s eyes are fierce. After seeing the strength of Mojia this time, the spokes used for bicycles are the third generation steel, which can only be produced in Mojia village. As for sewing machines, you don''t have to think about it, they must be extremely precise, He produces locks most clearly. The more sophisticated machinery, he uses either the best craftsman or the most advanced technology, and there is no shortage of either in Mojia village.


    Moreover, only the most advanced technology can allow mass production of sewing machines, which is the unique place of Mojia village.


    At the thought of this place, the public loser Hong can''t help feeling powerless. With the current strength of the public loser, he may be barely better than the Deng Ling family. The Xiangfu family is famous for building bridges in the Tang Dynasty, and there is not much conflict with the public loser. The powerful Mojia village makes the public loser feel powerless, let alone the Mojia son who waves through the clouds.


    "Now I''m afraid it''s not the public loser, but the other two veins of Mohism!" the public loser Hong moved in his heart and couldn''t help looking aside at the people of Li Yun and Deng Ling.


    Li yundao can also keep calm, while some of the people in the dengling family have a dignified face and some have bright eyes. They are shocked by one magical machine after another. What makes them shocked is the impact of these ink skills on the Tang Dynasty.


    Once these three things come out, they will certainly change the way of life of the Tang Dynasty and make the Mohist famous everywhere. All these have nothing to do with them. They are all the work of the Mohist village.


    Deng Long''s heart was heavy for a while. Now Mohist ink technology is far ahead of the other two veins. In particular, Mohist Zi''s advanced ink technology, amazing means, towering wealth and moving love have convinced many children of the two veins. If Mohist Zi had proposed to unify the three veins of Mohism before, there might be a lot of opposition. After this ink technology exhibition, I''m afraid this opposition will be minimized.


    Merton was proud of the audience. At this moment, it became the most dazzling existence in the audience.


    "Maybe you have heard a rumor that Mo wants to unify the Mohist school." the Mohist family suddenly said, and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Sure enough!" Yan shigu was shocked when he heard the speech. He couldn''t help mentioning his pen and concentrating to record this historic moment.


    "That''s right! Momou does have this plan!" Merton nodded.


    "Wow!" the crowd was in an uproar. Could it be that the three veins of Mohism, which have been divided for thousands of years, should be unified today.


    Deng long and Xiao Dengkui could not help but change their faces. The Mo family was so deceptive that they didn''t even discuss it with them. They even announced it directly. However, they saw the surprised eyes of many Deng Ling''s children and couldn''t help but feel powerless.


    Li Yun in the wheelchair also frowned, and Zu Mingjun turned his head in surprise with a question mark on his face.


    Li Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly.


    "However, what Mo wants to unify is not the three veins of Mohism, but the knowledge of Mohism." Merton Lang said.


    "That''s it..."


    The crowd was in a mess in the wind, and their pants were off, but the Mohists let them see this. Even Yan shigu put down the paper and pen in his hand with a bitter smile.


    Some of the sons of Deng Ling''s family were relieved, while others looked complex. They didn''t know whether to be happy or lost.


    Merton said loudly, "maybe some people will question why your Mohist village''s ink skills emerge one after another, and why your Mohist can create so much wealth with ink skills, it must be that you cherish yourself and make your unique knowledge of Mohist for your own profit."


    Many people suddenly felt a burst of Hao Ran. Usually, when they saw that Mojia village was making great progress every day, they were naturally jealous. It is necessary to slander Mojia village every day.


    "Yes, Mo did integrate the knowledge of Mohist School for thousands of years and summed up a new unique Mohist school." Merton nodded and admitted.


    "Ah!"


    The people were not surprised. They didn''t expect that they didn''t blame the Mo family. As expected, they had such a unique skill.


    "Today, Mo will integrate the unique skills of Mohist School for thousands of years and make it public. He will no longer let ink technology become a forbidden area of Mohist school. Even an ordinary craftsman may create amazing ink technology." Merton''s voice resounded everywhere.


    For a moment, the whole audience was silent and the needle dropping could be heard. After a long time, there was a little voice of discussion. Soon, these voices spread, forming waves of sound and gradually resounded through the whole audience.


    "Mohist Zi wants to announce his unique Mohist knowledge!" the people did not return to their senses. They had long guessed that Mohist Zi could master ink skills at his fingertips. He must have mastered the unique knowledge beyond the other two veins, and now it has finally been confirmed.


    If it is someone else, such unique knowledge will certainly become the most valuable secret to be guarded from generation to generation. However, it is a great mind that mojiazi should open it to the world.


    In an instant, Deng long, who had adhered to it, couldn''t help being convinced by Merton. He couldn''t help sighing: "master, master! Do you know what you missed?"


    Yang Siqi was afraid that Deng Ling''s lineage would be swallowed up by Mohists and refused to enter the future. However, he missed the most important moment in Mohist history, which will certainly become the regret of Yang Siqi''s life.


    Mojiazi not only invited the three branches of Mohism, but also invited the public loser. At the same time, there were more than 2000 craftsmen. Everyone guessed that mojiazi wanted the industry to witness him unify the three branches of Mohism, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi was to make public the unique knowledge of Mohism.


    "My trip is worth it!" Yan shigu was so excited that he grasped the paper money in his hand and inherited the unique Mohist school. This is the first achievement of a hundred schools of thought to break through the sages in a thousand years. This must be a dazzling page in the history books, and he is the witness of this historic moment.


    In an instant, everyone looked at the mojiazi in the center of the field. At this moment, the stars were not holding the moon, and the mojiazi had become as dazzling as the sun.

 Chapter 1053

    "Mo once said that the foundation of ink technology was power. Before the emergence of Mohism, people used their hands to work. One person''s power was only a hundred kilograms, even less than cattle and horses, and the efficiency was very low. Mo called it the human age." Merton Lang said.


    "Human age!"


    Everyone nodded, the production efficiency was very low in the pre-Qin period, and manpower really occupied the mainstream of the society.


    "After the emergence of Mohism, they began to study ink technology and create machinery. Machinery began to be popularized in China. The power of machinery is ten times greater than that of manpower. Today, the most powerful bridge erecting machine of Mohism can lift tens of thousands of kilograms of heavy objects, which is the power of machinery." Merton said proudly.


    Everyone was silent. Naturally, they heard of the power of the Mohist bridge erecting machine and were shocked by it.


    "Nowadays, machines using ink technology are popular in the Tang Dynasty. One person using machines is better than ten people and a hundred people. The human age has passed and a new mechanical age has come." Merton said proudly.


    "Mechanical age!"


    Mohist Sanmai and public loser nodded slowly and agreed with Merton''s division. Now machinery has been integrated into all aspects of Datang. The work that could not be completed by manpower in the past can be easily completed by machinery, and many machines have replaced manpower.


    Yan shigu was shocked. He picked up his pen and wrote down the four big characters destined to be written in history books on paper.


    "However, it''s the same person. Under one person, it''s only a hundred kilograms, but one person''s power to control machinery can reach thousands of kilograms. What''s the mechanical principle? Have you ever thought about it?" Merton asked.


    All the craftsmen were confused. The machines they made were handed down by their masters or generations. Where have they studied the principles behind them, only the two veins of Mohism and the public loser were thoughtful.


    "The key is the well-known lever principle," Merton Lang said.


    "Lever principle!"


    Everyone frowned. After the revival of the Mohist school, the "Mojing" became very popular. Almost all craftsmen have a Mojing. They hope that one day they can create new ink skills like the Mohist family. The lever principle in the Mojing is well known, but few have created ink skills.


    "That''s because you have a biased understanding. The lever principle is not just a stick and a fulcrum. It can be in a variety of forms. For example, the winch. The reason why the noodle pressing machine is labor-saving is that we shake a winch with a diameter of one foot and drive only an inch of gear. If we use a force of 30 kg to shake the winch handle, we can Through the action of the lever principle, the force of the gear can reach 300 kg, which can easily move the circle and save labor, "Merton explained.


    People suddenly realized that they understood the manufacturing principle of the noodle press.


    Li Yun vaguely realized that it was not so simple, but it was like a layer of fog. He couldn''t catch that trace of inspiration.


    "Similarly, our foot strength is only tens of kilograms, but the bicycle can drive hundreds of kilograms of weight forward. The secret lies in the distance between the winch and the pedal. The foot force acts on the gear through the winch, and the gear acts on the wheel through the chain, which is also the function of the lever principle." Merton turned over and rode on the two or eight bars and rode around the center of the venue, The crowd watched mojiazi step on the pedal easily, but the speed of the bicycle was comparable to that of people running. Originally, they just looked strange. Now they understand the principle and marvel at the magic of ink technology.


    "In addition to ink skills,


    "In addition to the round shape, the lever principle can also exist in another form, that is, the pulley, and the Mohist kilo arm is made based on this principle." Merton reached out and waved, a curtain fell, revealing a support fixed on the ground, on which a row of pulleys were fixed.


    "The pulley is also a lever?" Xiao Dengkui said inconceivably. The Mohist kilogram arm is famous and a masterpiece of Mohist machinery. Naturally, Deng Ling''s pulse has also been deeply studied.


    Merton nodded: "there are two kinds of pulleys. One is the fixed pulley fixed on the kilogram arm. The fixed pulley does not save effort, but it can change the direction of force and make it more convenient for us to use force."


    Merton said, tie up a weight of 100 kg with a rope, and pass it through the fixed pulley with a rope. The weight that needs to be lifted only needs to be pulled down.


    "The fixed pulley can change the direction of force, and the real labor saving still needs to move the pulley and the fixed pulley to form a pulley block." Merton laboriously put down the rope and gasped.


    Merton picked up a movable pulley and connected it in series with the fixed pulley on the boom to form a set of simplest pulley block in public. This time, Merton pulled the platinum weight without much effort. Since then, the more pulley blocks Merton added, the easier it was for Merton to pull up the weight of 100 kg. This time, Merton easily pulled up the weight of 100 kg, and even mischievous up and down A few.


    "So that is what it is." the ordinary craftsman suddenly came to his senses, and suddenly his heart opened up.


    "As you can see from the situation just now, the more pulley blocks, the more labor-saving. The amount of labor-saving is determined by the number of ropes in the middle of the pulley block. There are several ropes, and the force used by manpower is a fraction of the object." Merton said.


    Li Yun''s eyes lit up, as if he had understood the key.


    Merton Lang said, "in this way, let us return to the most basic form of the lever principle."


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, a group of Mohist children raised something like a seesaw in children''s paradise, but the lever fulcrum was not in the center, but offset to one side.


    "This is a special lever made by the Mohist family. The length of one side is one foot, and the length of the other end is one foot." Merton hung a hundred jin weight at the end of one foot and walked to a long sound path of the lever of one foot. "How many kilograms of weight do you think can lift a hundred kilograms of weight.


    "Ten catties!" the people said without hesitation. In the past, they only knew that the longer the length of the lever, the more labor-saving. After many demonstrations by Mohist Zi, they naturally knew and understood the mystery.


    Merton immediately showed a knowing smile and hung a ten pound weight on a ten foot long lever. The whole lever was balanced on both sides like a scale and lifted at the same time


    "It seems that you have understood the secret of the unique lever principle. However, have you ever imagined that if a long lever can reach a hundred feet, a thousand feet, or even an infinite length, this lever can provoke multiple objects." Merton''s voice gradually rose and resounded through the audience.


    People''s hearts were shocked, and they couldn''t help shaking at the bottom of their hearts. If they could really achieve this, wouldn''t ink technology be omnipotent.


    "Give me a fulcrum, I will pry the whole earth." Merton''s final most arrogant famous saying of mankind.

 Chapter 1054

    "Wow!"


    The whole venue was extremely enthusiastic. Everyone in the industrial world stood up and cheered from the three veins of Mohism to public losers and ordinary craftsmen.


    The lever principle is not a Mohist school, but the foundation of the whole industry. Merton shouted this, but although everyone knows that there is no such fulcrum, it represents that the industry has unlimited possibilities and potential.


    During the millennium when Mohism was silent, the status of craftsmen became lower and lower. They were even divided into cheap nationality. They were ridiculed and looked down upon by the world. They could only work for people, do the hardest work, be exploited by others, and be poor all their lives.


    With the rise of Mohism and the wide promotion of Mohism technology, Mohism became famous and the status of workers was significantly improved.


    However, this is not enough. What craftsmen want is more than that. They want to be as rich as Mojia village, and everywhere they go are respectful eyes. Before that, they dare not have such extravagant expectations. However, at the moment, each of them takes it for granted that they should.


    This is not only a slogan, but also a belief.


    Yan shigu scratched his ears and cheeks with the same excitement. He pulled off several moustaches without even noticing it. At this moment, he knew he was right. Today''s event will surely be recorded in history.


    "This is not only a further step in the unique knowledge of Mohism, but also a change in the whole industry." Yan shigu looked at a group of fanatical craftsmen. The original timid look disappeared from them, replaced by strong self-confidence and pride.


    "Mohist wants more than the three veins of Mohism, he wants the whole industry!" Deng long was shocked. Merton''s bold words also excited him. At the moment, if Mohism proposes to unify the three veins of Mohism, maybe he will accept it and worship it.


    However, everyone underestimated Mohist''s ambition. He wanted more. However, on the basis of ambition, Mohist had a broader mind. He did not want to accept the ideas of craftsmen all over the world, but wanted to accept the ideas of craftsmen all over the world and change the spirit of the industry.


    "Public losers are not wronged!" sighed public loser Hong.


    For thousands of years, the public losers and Mohists have been fighting endlessly. However, the public losers have always been at a disadvantage. Originally, the public losers were not convinced, but now they are convinced. Originally, the public losers were just skilled craftsmen. The reason why Mohists can be called Mohists is that they have theories, ideas and the spirit of loving the world, These are exactly what public losers lack.


    Public loser Hao and other public losers were even more enthusiastic when they looked at Merton than at him. Public loser Hong couldn''t help laughing bitterly. However, it was soon relieved that although Mohists and public losers have been competing for thousands of years, they belong to the same industry. Now Mohists have announced Mohist unique skills and changed the spirit of craftsmen. Public losers have also benefited a lot and are more proud of being craftsmen.


    "From now on, the Mohist school will really revive." Kong huisuo, who came on behalf of the Confucius family, sighed. A few ink skills alone can''t change the status of craftsmen. Even if it''s magic like Mohist Zi, if one day Mohist Zi''s magic is not there, Mohist school will return to its original form.


    Today, however, Mozi inherited the past and opened the future, integrated Mozi''s knowledge, summarized the formula of lever theorem, laid a theoretical foundation for the mechanical age, and changed the craftsman''s spirit with a slogan.


    It is conceivable that from now on, even if Mozi is gone, countless craftsmen will use the lever principle to create endless ink skills, which is the great prosperity of Mozi.


    "Brother Mo, you have a good intention!" Li Yun naturally understood Merton''s pains and murmured on his face, but he didn''t know that Zu Mingjun looked at him in horror.


    "Brother Li, you... Stand up." Zu Mingjun stammered, pointing to the wheelchair under Li Yun.


    "Ah!" Li Yun suddenly found himself excited and got up and cheered with a group of craftsmen. At the moment, he came back and felt his body soft.


    Zu Mingjun immediately held him and prepared to let him sit down so as not to fall.


    "Don''t let me sit down. Doctor sun once said that my body is no longer in great trouble. Only there is a problem with the meridians. Maybe one day I suddenly get better and can stand up, or I may never stand up. However, I didn''t expect to stand up at this moment." Li Yun tried to look up, and the feeling of standing up for a long time made him miss it very much.


    After Dr. Sun''s recuperation and the use of binoculars to direct the repair of the bridge, Li Yun''s condition has been controlled, but he has not recovered. Who would have thought that under the bold words of the Mohist school, the spiritual power of the Mohist school has made him create a miracle again.


    Naturally, everyone also saw Li Yun''s miracle of healing without medicine. They couldn''t help shouting magic. Naturally, everyone knows Li Yun''s condition in Chang''an city. No one thought that a word from Mohist school had given Li Yun such great power.


    Yan shigu moved in his heart and wrote quickly in his hand. He made every effort to record this scene at this time. He believed that today''s event would certainly become a classic story.


    "Master! You missed too much!" Deng long smiled bitterly under the stand. Yang Siqi was afraid that the Mohists would annex Deng Ling''s family and refused the invitation of the Mohists. However, he didn''t know that what the Mohists wanted was not the poor family background of Deng Ling''s family at all. He not only missed the Mohists'' explanation of the principle of leverage, but also missed the historic moment when the industry regained its glory, I don''t know how much I regret when master learned about today''s scene.


    This moment! Mohism broke out a dazzling light and became the most dazzling existence among the hundred schools. In the era of hundred schools of thought contending thousands of years ago, there were one amazing and talented people after another. They developed their own theory to the extreme. They are the scholars of the hundred schools.


    Even today, all the hundred schools are still shrouded in the shadow of the former scholars, and now there is finally a hundred schools that have broken through the knowledge of the sages, that is Mohism.


    Mohist Zi studied the lever principle to the extreme and was the master of Mohist unique knowledge. However, Mohist Zi did not cherish himself, but made it public. Everyone believes that after the craftsmen present today leave, the lever principle will certainly spread to every corner of Datang, and an endless stream of new ink skills will soon appear in Datang.


    "A Mohist is not terrible. What is terrible is that there are countless Mohists in the world!" the other hundred schools sighed and had to admit that this time the Mohist school once again came in front of all the others.


    Merton couldn''t help smiling proudly. Although he knew that this sentence was very encouraging, he underestimated the influence of this sentence when he saw the reaction of the craftsmen on the scene.


    "Sorry, Archimedes, let me borrow your famous sentence." Merton apologized.

 Chapter 1055

    "Power multiplied by power arm equals resistance multiplied by resistance arm." when Mohist Zi made public the summarized lever principle formula, everyone sighed that this time, Mohist theory has reached perfection!


    Even the most ordinary craftsman can make labor-saving machinery by applying this formula.


    "This time, I''m afraid we''ll live in the shadow of Mohism all our life, and the other two veins will also be subordinate to Mohism village." the children of the other two veins of Mohism said with a heavy heart.


    Not only the two veins of the Mohist school are like this, but also the public losers are equally complex. The two are rivals for thousands of years and have never served anyone. However, this time, the Mohist School shines brilliantly, but the public loser has made no achievements.


    However, the people of the same aristocratic family hummed coldly: "the Mohist is just a weak year. He has achieved the words of the family at a young age. Is it not afraid to kill him and use his words?"


    "Kill him and use his words!"


    This is the story of Han Feizi, a legalist. At the beginning, Han Feizi was also a master of Legalists. Han Feizi entered Qin Dynasty and was deeply appreciated by Qin Shihuang. However, he had different political opinions because of the problems in Korea. However, Han Feizi had great influence in the state of Qin and was finally imprisoned. Although it is recorded in historical books that LISS killed Han Feizi, everyone knows, Without the consent of the first emperor of Qin, how dare Lisi kill Han Feizi in the state of Qin with strict laws, and he has been valued by the king of Qin since then.


    After Han Feizi''s death, Qin Shihuang appointed Han Feizi''s legalist thought to destroy the six countries and unify the world. This is to kill him and use his words.


    Now, the Mohist family is just a weak year, and has developed the Mohist theory to the peak. Craftsmen all over the world regard him as a leader. At this time, isn''t this very similar to Han Feizi''s situation at the beginning.


    Today, the reputation of Mohist school has reached its peak. In the eyes of people with intentions, this is an extremely dangerous signal. The more terrible Mohist school is just a weak year, younger than Han Feizi. It is still unknown to what extent Mohist school can grow in the future.


    Suddenly, many people looked at Mohist Zi with a layer of worry, but Merton laughed and said: "you all think this is the peak of Mohism, that''s a big mistake. In Mohist''s view, this is just the beginning of Mohism."


    Zu Mingjun and others looked at Merton with a proud face and couldn''t help stamping their feet. Merton''s situation was so delicate, but he continued to expand.


    Merton turned a blind eye and said: "Mo calls this era the mechanical age, but there is a slight bias, because at present, most of the use of machinery is inseparable from manpower. More accurately, it should be called the human mechanical age."


    "The era of manpower and machinery!"


    Everyone nodded. The division of the MOH family was also accurate. Although the machinery was good, it needed people to control it.


    "However, human power is sometimes poor, and the power of heaven and earth is infinite! Once the rolling river overflows, it will destroy all the things in front of them, and the soaring flame will devour all the combustible things. The roaring hurricane is enough to roll people into the sky. The heaven and earth is full of endless water power, firepower and wind, which are thousands of times better than human power. If we can It will be a grand occasion to control the power to be used to replace manpower. "


    "Water power, fire power, wind power!" the craftsmen frowned. They naturally knew that the power of heaven and earth was endless. However, they were not Taoists. How could they command the gods in the sky to use these power for people.


    "It''s impossible?" Xiao Dengkui suddenly said in a loud voice. Although Mohist''s lever principle surprised him, Mohist''s proposal to study the power of heaven and earth is really a fool''s dream.


    Others were silent. Although Xiao Dengkui was rude, he said what they thought.


    Merton looked at Xiao Dengkui and said, "Mo is not a gossip, but a trace to follow, because the sages of the industry have already taken the first step of exploration."


    "There is a trace to follow?" they were stunned, frowning and thinking, but there was no clue.


    Merton reminded, "have you ever heard of Du Shi''s water drainage?"


    "Du Shi''s water drainage!" after Merton''s reminder, people remembered that there was a kind of machinery that did not rely on manpower, but on water power. That was the water drainage created by Du Shi, an elder in the industrial circles in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was specially used for smelting iron and blowing air.


    "Du Shi''s water drainage does use water power, but it has great defects. It must be installed in the place where the water flow is urgent. Moreover, it often has abundant water power and strong wind in summer, while the water flow is gentle and the water level is low in autumn and winter, so it can''t be used at all." Xiao Dengkui frowned.


    A group of craftsmen nodded one after another. The water drainage can only be used in the north with abundant water and many rivers. In the north with few rivers and slow water flow, it is chicken ribs, not to mention that the water drainage has to be adjusted with the level of water level, which is extremely troublesome.


    But then again, although water drainage is inconvenient, it is indeed, as Merton said, the power of transforming heaven and earth into human use. As long as there is running water, the water drainage can rotate continuously, and the power of transforming river water into human use. Immediately, people have a little more trust in what Mozi said.


    Merton nodded: "Water drainage does have some disadvantages, but the problem of water level and velocity is not insurmountable. We can block the dam and store water in the canyon and install water drainage. The Mohist school has proposed a memorial to the imperial court, and then build a dam at shibieyu in the upper reaches of the Li River. If there is a lot of precipitation in summer, block the river and store water, increase the reservoir capacity, reduce the threat of flood to Chang''an City, and open the gate to release water in autumn and winter to ensure The Lishui River is continuously transported, as well as the irrigation water on both banks. A dam can collect flood control, irrigation and water transportation, and can install water drainage on the dam, which perfectly solves the disadvantages of flow rate and water level. In this way, it is not impossible to turn hydraulic power into human use. "


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole audience was in an uproar again. Every time, they thought they looked high at the mojiazi, but found that they still underestimated the ambition of the mojiazi. Who would have thought that the mojiazi tried to control a river, and the plan was very detailed and highly likely to succeed.


    More craftsmen are thinking about the dam plan of mojiazi. Once it is successful, such a huge hydraulic power will certainly give the whole Mojia village a steady stream of power, and the benefits are almost envious to everyone.


    "What Mo is using is just a small river. I don''t know how many people are better than the Li River in the world, and there are countless people whose terrain and water conservancy are better than the shibieyu valley. Even one day, with the progress of ink technology, Datang can build a Super Dam on the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. At that time, Datang will really control these two flowing beasts, and the people on both sides will no longer be afraid of floods I''m afraid the water power implied by these two dams cannot be compared with all the manpower and horsepower in the world. Even if we use a trace, we will have endless returns. In addition to water power, wind power and firepower, as long as it is the power of heaven and earth, they are all among the research of Mohism. This is the future and task of Mohism. "Merton said generously.


    The whole venue was silent again. They thought that sewing machines and other three things were the essence of this ink technology exhibition, but they didn''t expect that mojiazi would unify the unique knowledge of Mohism on this basis. In public, people thought that the lever principle was the peak of Mohist knowledge, but they didn''t expect that mojiazi put forward the future direction of Mohism and had a practical plan to use the power of heaven and earth for themselves.


    They looked up to mojiazi again and again, and mojiazi shocked them again and again.


    "This is the Mexican family!" at this moment, everyone sighed in their hearts, the Mexican family who has repeatedly created miracles.

 Chapter 1056

    "Mo once said that I have made such achievements, but I can see further only by stepping on the shoulders of countless Mohist sages. Today, Mo imitates the sages and becomes a stepping stone on your road to success. The power of heaven and earth is a blank. Now Mo is on the same starting line with you, and Mo is waiting for you in the future!" Merton said earnestly and waved goodbye to the people, Ended this ink art exhibition.


    This ink technology exhibition is probably the least one in history to release ink technology. There are only three kinds of noodle press, bicycle and sewing machine. Even bicycle is the ink technology of the ink technology exhibition three years ago. Now it is just mass production.


    And although these three ink techniques are extremely practical, they are not very wonderful. There is no Jingyan of man-made rainbow or the legend of wooden cattle and horses. In the eyes of ordinary people, there is some disappointment, but in the hearts of people of insight, the sensation is no less than a towering storm.


    This kind of storm is a storm of thought. This feeling is more unforgettable than the surprise seen by the eyes.


    The ink technology exhibition was over, but everyone was immersed in it for a long time and didn''t want to leave, while the familiar Chang''an people had quietly left the venue.


    According to the usual practice, after the ink technology exhibition, it is the time for the sale of new goods in Mojia village. Many Chang''an people just walked out of the ink technology exhibition and immediately went to the sales hall.


    "Give me a noodle press!"


    "Give me a bike!"


    "Give me a sewing machine."


    People in Chang''an buy their favorite goods one after another, and even those with big money take all three at once.


    Soon, the goods of 300 sets for each set in the ink technology exhibition were robbed.


    "How did it sell out so quickly!" a Chang''an people regretted that they didn''t grab it.


    "I''m sorry, you''ve sold out the goods in the ink technology exhibition, but you don''t have to worry. There will be enough goods in the Mohist mechanism city for you to choose." Lang Sheng, a Mohist son, said.


    The crowd calmed down. Those who chose the goods left happily. Those who did not choose the goods immediately turned around and went towards the Mohist mechanism city.


    With the ink technology exhibition, people returned to Chang''an city with their favorite baby. All the information about the ink technology exhibition immediately spread rapidly throughout Chang''an City, sweeping the whole Chang''an city like waves. Everyone in Chang''an City talked about it.


    "This is the noodle press I bought without hesitation at the ink technology exhibition, which cost me 400 Wen!" a strong man who had just participated in the ink technology exhibition showed off his neighbors holding the noodle press.


    "Four hundred Wen, how much white flour can I buy?" the neighbor said with envy and heartache.


    The strong man said proudly, "white noodles won''t turn into noodles. There are more than 20 people in my family. It''s rare to eat noodles on weekdays. With this noodle press, you can eat soup noodles every day!"


    In the eyes of Datang people, soup noodles are a rare delicacy. However, small families can easily make them. Making soup noodles by a large family is a big project! It''s rare to eat once on weekdays. If you have a noodle press, it''s simple.


    "But it''s too expensive!" the strong man''s daughter-in-law said painfully.


    "What''s more expensive? This time, I''m going to follow the advice of Mohist and take this noodle pressing machine to sell noodles in the vegetable market. I press noodles and my wife will sell them. It''s sure that business is booming. It''s also a business for my family. Anyway, I have enough strength." the strong man raised his strong arm and said.


    The strong man''s daughter-in-law nodded again and again. Their family is very big. They have been living on empty land and can''t make ends meet. If they have one more business, they can get better.


    "Isn''t it just a noodle press? If I want to buy it, I''ll buy a bike. It''s said that a bike only costs 800 Wen, which can''t even compare with the fraction of the horse price." the neighbor Leng hum.


    "Yes! Raising a horse is too expensive. Raising a horse is too expensive. It''s like raising a master. Only two bowls of dry rice are eaten in his stomach after a hundred kilometers of bicycle." the merchant nodded. For men, the biggest dream is to have a horse. However, the price of a horse is too expensive and it''s too troublesome to feed, Nowadays, bicycle has become a substitute for horse, which is much easier to use than horse.


    "You don''t know. The ink technology exhibition has just ended, and the price of horses in the western market has dropped by 20 percent." a citizen gossip said.


    "So immediate!" the crowd exclaimed.


    But think about it, bicycles have too much advantage over horses. It is said that the price of a bicycle is only 800 Wen, which is very cost-effective compared with horses that start more than ten times. If the price in the west market does not decrease, I''m afraid the horses in the west market will fall into their own hands.


    "However, it should not be much lower. After all, most of the people who buy bicycles are individuals, and the smooth brick road in Datang requires a large number of horses to pull bicycles. One comes and two goes, and the demand for horses has not decreased too much. Since mojiazi founded the smooth brick road, the price of horses has been rising, and horse dealers have benefited from mojiazi. Now mojiazi has launched bicycles to reduce the price of horses and peck them in one drink It''s God''s will. "


    There are also citizens who see it very thoroughly and analyze it very well.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "In my opinion, the best-selling sewing machine is the sewing machine. Sewing machine is the sharp weapon of needlework. One woman can use sewing machine better than ten women''s handicrafts. I will marry a sewing machine for my little girl when I marry a woman recently." an old man said proudly.


    His daughter''s needlework is not good. He was worried that he would be made difficult in his mother-in-law''s house. If he had a sewing machine as a dowry, his daughter''s face would rise sharply after she married.


    "Three turns and one sound! From then on, it will certainly be a necessary thing for the wedding of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mojia village will surely have a lot of money!" they exclaimed. Even ordinary people can smell the endless business opportunities.


    Ordinary people are talking about how much money Mozi can earn, and the aristocratic family is looking at the influence brought by these three commodities.


    "Indeed, the Mohist family didn''t boast. After this Mohist skill exhibition, the Mohist village had no hidden worries. This time, the aristocratic family lost." Zheng family leader looked at the three brand-new goods in front of him and couldn''t help but feel dejected.


    These three goods are related to the food and transportation of the people. It can be said that each family is eager to have. Naturally, he can see how broad the market is.


    Not to mention that mojiazi has both Mojia organ city and Mojia magazine shopping, coupled with three new Mojia machines, the aristocratic family has no way to embarrass the Mojia village.


    "How should the aristocratic family get along with the Mohist family? Should we bow to the Mohist family?" Zheng Chang said irritably.


    The Zheng family leader could not help being silent. The five surnames and seven hopes were so arrogant. Even in the face of the Mohist school with a millennium reputation, they still maintained a high posture, but they didn''t expect what a difficult opponent they were facing. They not only had a millennium reputation, but also had the knowledge of future generations.


    "Look again! This time, someone is more urgent than us." Zheng''s head shook.


    Zheng opened his eyes and said, "what my father said is Confucianism."


    Zheng''s family leader sneered: "it''s not just Confucianism. I''m afraid the whole hundred schools of thought are in a hurry."

 Chapter 1057

    When the Mohist lever theory and the idea of transforming the power of heaven and earth into human use spread among the hundred schools, the whole hundred schools were boiling.


    "What do you think of Li Daoyou?" asked Taoist Changsheng with a smile in the xuandu temple.


    "The Mohists are really amazing!"


    Li Chunfeng looked at the records of the ink exhibition in his hand and couldn''t help sighing again and again.


    He was only amazed by the lever principle. The revival of Mohism was not enough to startle the inaction Taoism, but what really shocked him was the idea of turning the power of heaven and earth into human beings, which was simply a means of God.


    For a long time, Taoism believed that wind, rain and lightning were the established arrangement of heaven. However, today''s mojiazi''s dam plan has left him restless for a long time.


    The power to control heaven and earth is owned by people. Since then, this divine means can be achieved by manpower, which has a great impact on Taoists who believe in ghosts and gods.


    "To be honest, Taoism is also involved in the dam plan. The cement needed to build the dam is a masterpiece of waidan," said the eldest son proudly.


    "So good!" Li Chunfeng''s eyes flashed. With the participation of Taoism, the impact on Taoism will be minimized, and maybe it will bring unexpected benefits to Taoism.


    Confucius house!


    Kong Yingda was silent when he heard all the news of Kong huisuo''s report on the ink technology exhibition.


    "Brother Mo is broad-minded and takes the initiative to disclose the formula of the lever principle. From now on, craftsmen all over the world will surely create countless ink skills to benefit the Tang Dynasty." Kong huisuo repeatedly praised.


    Kong Yingda seemed to shake his head and nodded: "Thousands of years have passed since the time of the sons of Confucius, but the influence of the sons of Confucius has lasted for thousands of years. Who of our generation doesn''t want to surpass the sages, push through the old and bring forth the new on the basis of the sages, and achieve the words of the whole family? However, in the end, it''s just old wine in new bottles, and we still don''t get rid of the influence of the sons of Confucius. Now the Mohist school has become the first person to get rid of the sons of Confucius, and I''m afraid the Mohist school has really become a success For the Mexican family. "


    Mozi is the nickname of Chang''an people. At the beginning, the Mozi was young, and there was only Merton in the Mozi at that time, so they fell into this name. However, they didn''t expect that the original joke had become a fact. I''m afraid the Mozi had ranked among the scholars.


    Kong huisuo advised: "from my nephew''s point of view, Merton''s leverage principle is not the first, but based on Mozi''s Mo Sutra. The justice of the five classics compiled by my uncle is also based on the five Sutras of Confucius, which can certainly compete with the leverage theory of Mohism."


    Kong Yingda smiled bitterly and said, "the justice of the five classics of the second uncle is just an interpretation of the five classics of the ancestor Confucius. It does not jump out of the theory of the ancestors, let alone the punctuation marks used by the second uncle to break sentences, which is not the case with Mohist Zi. It is the most dazzling achievement he finally got from summing up the Millennium theory of Mohism, which has transcended the influence of Mohist."


    "That''s just a step ahead of Mohism. In the contention of a hundred schools of thought thousands of years ago, Confucius, the ancestor of all schools of thought, was not the first to write books and write stories. It was still Confucianism who finally laughed." Kong huisuo said confidently.


    "Yes, I am a Confucian. Homonymy is the ultimate trump card of Confucianism. During the western expedition to Gaochang, the second uncle will certainly contact the Confucian people and strive to take Gaochang as a pilot of homonymy. You must do your best and don''t live up to the expectations of Confucianism." Kong Yingda said emphatically.


    "Save it, little nephew." Kong huisuo solemnly replied.


    After waving Kong huisuo away, Kong Yingda looked gloomy. When the isolated troops of Mojia village entered Chang''an, Confucianism didn''t take it in the eyes, just as a joke.


    With the brilliant development of Mohism, Kong Yingda paid a little attention to Mohism. However, at the moment, the Mohist village has given up Mozi''s political concept and devoted itself to studying Mohist ink technology. In Kong Yingda''s view, no matter how much Mohist jumped, he is just a craftsman.


    Today, Mozi still kept his promise, gave up Mozi''s political ideas, and only let his disciples abide by them in Mozi village. However, he didn''t expect that Mozi''s ink technology had developed to such an extent that it broke through Mozi''s theory and spread it to craftsmen all over the world. It can be said that today''s Mozi has dominated the world''s work world.


    Today, Mohism has occupied the industrial world and has a decisive influence on the business world, which is enough to compete with Confucianism.


    What''s more, Mohist Zi put forward the future direction of Mohism. It can be imagined how prosperous Mohism will be in the future once Mohist studies the power of heaven and earth thoroughly,


    In the past, there were Mohist classics and techniques, and now there is the lever principle as Mohist theory. In the future, there will be the power to transform heaven and earth for people to use. This time, the revival of Mohism has become a trend, and even Confucianism can''t do anything.


    "No, I have another move." Kong Yingda couldn''t help thinking of the most famous public defeat in the Mojing.


    In the court of the state of Chu, he did his best like a public loser, but he still couldn''t break Mozi''s defense. In the end, he lost nine wars and nine defeats. The siege equipment of the public loser was exhausted, and Mr. Mozi''s defense equipment was still surplus.


    "I know the way to resist you, but I won''t say it," he said


    Mozi also said, "I know you want to use a method lower than mine, but I won''t say it."


    The king of Chu looked at them as if they were playing riddles. He couldn''t help asking why.


    Mozi said, "Mr. Gongshu''s intention is to kill me. If you kill me, the state of song can''t defend the city, you can capture it. But my students, bird Huali and other 300 people, have been waiting for the invasion of the state of Chu in the city of song with my city guarding equipment. Even if you kill me, you can''t kill all the defenders of the state of song."


    The king of Chu finally gave up attacking the state of song and released Mozi back.


    Kong Yingda carefully looked at the public defeat of the Mojing in his hand. He felt that heaven and man were at war. Finally, he said dejectedly: "the situation of Mozi is so similar to that of Mozi. Mozi has 300 disciples guarding the city, while Mozi has at least 3000 craftsmen who have only seen the ink technology exhibition, not to mention the lever principle of the world and the future concept of turning the power of heaven and earth into human use.


    Even killing the Mohists at this moment may not help. With the theory of these 3000 craftsmen and Mohists, countless Mohists will emerge.


    "Mo Zi is like this, so is mo Jia Zi. The revival of Mo is by no means a fluke." Kong Yingda sighed and pressed his thoughts to the bottom of his heart.


    Kong Yingda is right. The theory of Mohist school is indeed regarded as a treasure by craftsmen all over the world. In the inn, Deng long, the eldest martial brother of dengling family, stayed in the room, carefully recalled his words and deeds and recorded them all.


    "Elder martial brother, if you worship the Mohist family so much, you won''t be ready to change to the school! It''s a pity that the Mohist family doesn''t like Deng Ling''s pulse." Xiao Dengkui pushed the door in and mocked Deng long when he saw him writing fast.


    Deng Longtou didn''t return either. He wrote down the records in his hand. Then he looked up and said: "As the eldest martial brother of Deng Ling''s family, I naturally will not betray the school. However, as far as I know, mojiazi can''t aim at nothing. Especially in the ink technology exhibition, every word he said may have profound meaning. Brother, this is to understand what mojiazi thinks through his words and deeds."


    "Elder martial brother is such a mythical mojiazi that he is not ready to change to the school!" Xiao Dengkui laughed.


    Deng long solemnly said: "the idea of mojiazi is wonderful, just like his Wanguan reward in those years, and not many people believe it. For example, when he said that water and fire wind are combined together, he accentuated his tone, which may be of great significance."


    Deng long solemnly drew several lines on the record paper to show his attention.


    "Just talk about dreams! You can still see through the mind of Mohists." Xiao Dengkui laughed and went out.


    Deng long remained unmoved and continued to pick up the quotations of Mohism and study them word by word.

 Chapter 1058

    "No wonder the boy dragged on!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin looked at the two folds in his hand and couldn''t help muttering.


    One is Merton''s amazing performance in the ink technology exhibition, and the other is Merton''s plan to request the construction of shibieyu dam. Shibieyu is too close to Chang''an city. Once the dam is built, it will be related to the safety of Chang''an city. Merton naturally wants to ask the imperial court for instructions.


    "Lever principle!"


    "Turn heaven and earth into human use."


    There are two theories, one is the theoretical summary of Mohist''s existing ink technology, and the other is the future direction of Mohist. As long as Mohist moves forward in this direction, Mohist''s prosperity will be unstoppable, which is related to Mohist''s fortune in the next millennium. No wonder Merton delayed again and again until after the ink technology exhibition.


    To Li Shimin''s satisfaction, there were rumors in Chang''an City before the ink technology exhibition that the ink family wanted to unify the three veins of the ink family by inviting craftsmen from all over the world.


    However, everyone underestimated mojiazi. He had not only the strength of unifying the three veins, but also the influence of unifying the whole industry. However, mojiazi did not do so.


    Instead of doing so, Mohist Zi made all Mohist theories and future directions public, making it possible for all craftsmen to create ink technology.


    Is mojiazi stupid? Is this to create a competitor for himself? He is not afraid of the public losers or the other two veins surpassing Mojia village, or is Mojia Zi too idealistic.


    no Li Shimin doesn''t think so. Merton has a greater appetite. Just like the lever principle, he takes Mohism as the fulcrum and stirs up a hundred schools of thought to contend again. Only in this way, he is still not satisfied. He not only wants a hundred schools of thought to contend among the various schools of thought, but also wants a hundred schools of thought to contend within Mohism.


    To this end, Merton did not hesitate to publish the core theory of ink technology and the leverage principle, but also fully revealed the future direction of Mohism. It can be said that there is no reservation. In this way, all craftsmen in the world may become Mohists.


    "A single flower is not spring, but a hundred flowers bloom and spring fills the garden." Li Shimin finally read the poems of Mohist Zi, and couldn''t help nodding. Mohist Zi, as he said, didn''t disappoint him, but gave him more surprises.


    "The memorial of the son-in-law?" asked pound.


    Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "stay in China and don''t send it! This construction period is even bigger than the Weishui bridge. It''s difficult to see results without ten or eight years. It''s nothing to wait more than a year and a half. Everything will be discussed after the western expedition to Gaochang."


    Pound knew that there were three ways to deal with the folds played by officials. One was to deal with the folds that needed to be dealt with immediately. After Li Shimin''s instructions, he immediately handed them over to the three provinces and six departments for treatment. The other is useless folds, which will be sent to the incinerator by pound for burning. The other is memorials that are not needed or in a hurry. Pound keeps them so that they can be found when they are used in the future.


    "Let''s go! Go to the Lizheng hall. I heard that Changle brought a lot of strange things into the palace today. The Lizheng hall is very lively." Li Shimin got up and said.


    "It''s natural. The exhibition of this exhibition is all the things that women can use. The princess will naturally honor the empress." Pound squinted.


    There was a harmonious scene in the legislative palace.


    In the main hall, a sewing machine was placed in the center. Empress Chang sun was skillfully pedaling the pedal. The crisp and rhythmic sound of the sewing machine echoed in the main hall. Soon, a dress was formed in the hands of empress Chang sun.


    "The stitching and speed of Mohist machinery are really extraordinary." empress Chang sun cut off the thread and looked at the fine stitching and uniform stitches in her hand. Even when she was waiting for words in her boudoir, she could not compare with the accuracy of the sewing machine, let alone the speed.


    Princess Changle was proud and said, "Merton once said that precision, efficiency and never make mistakes. This is the charm of machinery."


    Empress Chang sun looked at the sewing machine and couldn''t put it down. "I think at the beginning, when my mother studied needlework, she didn''t suffer less. Which one of her hands was not pierced with blood. If there had been a sewing machine, who would suffer this crime. I didn''t expect that Merton had such a delicate mind and created such a magical machine."


    Princess Changle blushed. Merton asked Mojia village to develop a sewing machine because she wanted to sew clothes for Merton on a whim. It was conceivable that she was stabbed.


    After Merton came back, he was very distressed. Only then did he put forward the concept of sewing machine to Princess Changle and strive to solve the problem that Changle won''t have needlework.


    "Young slave, come here!" empress Chang sun reached out and called back Li Zhi, who was playing crazy outside the hall.


    "Coming!" Li Zhi responded in a loud voice. He stepped on the smaller child''s bicycle under his feet and staggered towards the empress changsun.


    Li Zhi has always wanted to own a horse. Unfortunately, since Li Chengqian fell off his horse and left foot disease, the prince must not ride a horse unless he is an adult. Even if Li Chengqian has recovered from foot disease, this rule has not been abolished. Li Zhi is eager to see through.


    Now I finally got a bike comparable to a horse. Naturally, I can''t put it down. It didn''t take long to get started. I can barely ride away.


    "Brother!"


    "Uncle! Wait for me!"


    Behind him, Princess Jinyang and Martha hurried to keep up. It was surprising that their speed was one step faster than Li Zhi, who had just learned to bike.


    "Unexpectedly, bicycles are not only beneficial to the country and the people, but also can become children''s toys." empress Chang sun looked at the cars under Jinyang and Martha. Princess Jinyang rode a toy car with auxiliary wheels, which is why she was younger but faster than Li Zhi who stubbornly removed the auxiliary wheels.


    As for the car under Martha, it is even more magical, because her car only has a balance car with two wheels, not even pedal auxiliary wheels. It can run fast and maintain balance by relying on two legs.


    Li Zhi was out of breath and finally came to the empress changsun, which stopped.


    "The hem of your clothes is too long, which is not conducive to cycling. Go and change this ink suit, which is much more convenient." empress Chang Sun said.


    Li Zhi changed his convenient and capable ink clothes and set foot on the bike again. He found that there was no restraint from the hem. It was really convenient to ride a bike.


    "Merton did a good job this time. The three ink skills in this ink technology exhibition benefited the people all over the world." watching Li Zhi happily ride his car outside the hall, he smiled like a loving mother,


    Princess Changle said proudly, "Mohism once said that Mohism produces what people need."


    "What a common people needs, the Mohists will produce!" suddenly Li Shimin''s bright voice appeared outside the Lizheng hall.

 Chapter 1059

    "Father emperor!" Princess Changle quickly bowed to see you.


    "Father emperor! You see I''ve learned to ride a bike!" Li Zhi and Princess Jinyang offered treasures to Li Shimin one after another.


    "Grandpa Huang!" Martha stared at the balance car with her feet and turned around Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin looked kindly and played with the three children for a while. Then he got up and said, "I was still angry with this boy for dragging his feet. After reading these three ink skills, my anger disappeared. It is not only the needs of the people, but also my urgent needs. The bicycle alone has solved my big trouble."


    Since the establishment of brick road, the price of horses has been rising continuously, and the biggest customer who needs horses in the world must be the military. The military expenditure spent on horses alone every year is an astronomical figure. Now when bicycles come out, the price of horses has fallen sharply, and the imperial court has also benefited a lot.


    "Even the imperial court, let alone ordinary people," sighed the empress changsun.


    At noon, Li Shimin and Princess Changle had dinner in the Lizheng hall. What they ate was the soup noodles pressed by the noodle press. Li Shimin had a big appetite and ate two bowls of noodles.


    "Merton''s departure is imminent. His daughter has to pack his luggage and leave first."


    After eating, Princess Changle got up and said goodbye.


    "Good bye, Grandpa and grandma!" Martha got up and said skillfully.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "Merton has been here for half a year. Take this opportunity to have a reunion."


    "Farewell, daughter!" Princess Changle nodded, picked up a brand-new cloak on the sewing machine and turned away.


    "It''s really cheap, that smelly boy!" Li Shimin couldn''t help eating. His daughter is the long Princess of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, she doesn''t need to learn needlework. Now she even makes a cloak for the Mo family. How can she not make him jealous.


    "Don''t worry, your baby daughter hasn''t forgotten you, and the clothes to honor you have already been done!" the eldest Sun Queen didn''t know Li Shimin''s careful thinking, turned and took out a brocade dress and handed it to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin was smiling. However, he didn''t find that the stitches of this brocade dress were very chaotic. It was obviously the first experiment of Princess Changle.


    "Play the guard of honor of the princess and go back to the house!"


    Out of the palace, Liu e had already been waiting outside the palace. Princess Changle immediately stepped on the carriage and waved her hand. Merton will go on an expedition tomorrow. Every moment of delay, they will have less time to reunite.


    "The princess went back to the house and everyone avoided it!"


    With the opening of the princess''s guard of honor, the carriage was unimpeded, and even many cars and horses stopped to salute when they saw the frame of Princess Changle.


    This courtesy is not only her Princess status, but also as the mistress of Mohism. In this ink technology exhibition, the Mohist family became a blockbuster and ranked among the 100 sons of the new generation. As the mistress of Mohism, Princess Changle naturally enjoyed this honor.


    The carriage went all the way to the Mo house, which saved half the time in the past. When the carriage arrived at the Mo house, Princess Changle immediately got off the carriage. Sure enough, she saw a familiar sound and shadow waiting for herself at the door. They looked at each other and smiled, and their hearts were connected.


    "Father!" Martha trotted all the way into Merton''s arms.


    When Princess Changle came near, her father and daughter were hugged by Merton in a warm but cold way.


    "There are others here!" Princess Changle looked at Merton shyly.


    Merton laughed and said, "I''ve been presumptuous many times today. I don''t care about it again."


    Princess Changle put down her shyness and snuggled up with her daughter and husband and walked into the ink house together.


    "Father, I want to hear you talk about the ink art exhibition!" said Mosha sajiao. She was too young to adapt to the noisy environment of the ink art exhibition. Merton asked Changle to take her into the palace. Now she''s back. Naturally, she won''t let go.


    "Good! Good!" Morton said with a spoiled face.


    Merton talked to Martha and Princess Changle about the ink technology exhibition. Although Princess Changle had heard of it for a long time, she still enjoyed it when she heard it from her husband.


    "This time, my husband won''t sing for three years. It''s a blockbuster!" Princess Changle said with a look of worship.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is not a blockbuster for husband. Mohism has been silent for three years, and Mohism has been silent for thousands of years. If you don''t sing again, I''m afraid the world will forget Mohism."


    "Mohism has been silent for thousands of years. I''m afraid there are also reasons for the division of the three veins of Mohism. This is a great opportunity for my husband to unify Mohism. It''s a pity to give up." Princess Changle sighed with a sigh.


    Merton shook his head and said, "my lady doesn''t know. The unified environment is not conducive to learning. Every troubled time is a time of brilliant culture. The reason why hundreds of schools of thought were born thousands of years ago is because of the continuous disputes in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States Period, which led to the disputes in learning, and finally burst out the most dazzling light of wisdom."


    "Now, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the peace of the country are not conducive to all schools of thought. If I unify the Mohist School for my husband, it will only destroy the Mohist school. On the contrary, I will make the unique Mohist school public for my husband. In addition, there are three disputes in the Mohist family, the public loser is the strong enemy outside, and the workers controlled by the aristocratic family are eyeing. Over time, a Mohist school with continuous disputes and talents will appear in the world In front of people, the Mohist school was really flourishing at that time, "Merton said proudly.


    Princess Changle sighed, "the world thinks that the important task of the revival of Mohism lies with your husband, but everyone underestimates your husband''s mind."


    Merton nodded: "the contention of a hundred schools of thought is not a struggle among a hundred schools of thought, but a reflection of each other. The same is true of Mohism. The rise of one family is also difficult to support. Only the contention of a hundred schools of thought within Mohism and mutual promotion can make Mohism become a prominent contemporary school again."


    Princess Changle nodded vaguely. Suddenly, she patted her forehead and stretched out her hand. Liu e handed over the cloak.


    "My husband is about to march to the west, and the northwest is bitter and cold. Wearing this cloak can also keep out the cold." Princess Changle gently picked up the cloak and put it on for Merton.


    Merton stroked the soft cloak and understood in his heart that it must have been done by Princess Changle herself. He was not moved in his heart. They looked at each other tenderly and immediately felt like water.


    "Father, mother, I want to go to the Mojia mechanism city!" suddenly, Merca broke their feelings.


    Merton laughed and said, "of course."


    He was about to march to the West. Naturally, he wanted to spend more time with his daughter at the last moment. The three members of the family dressed up like ordinary Chang''an people and strolled around the Mohist mechanism city.


    Every shop and every novel thing made the three people novel.


    Since she went to kindergarten, it was rare for her parents to accompany her. She had a great time. Until nightfall, the three had just returned to the ink house, and she had fallen asleep tired.


    Princess Changle handed over Mosha to Liu E. suddenly, only the husband and wife were left in the room.


    "Madam, three years!" Merton''s voice was hoarse and held Princess Changle in his arms.


    "What three years!" Princess Changle was stunned and didn''t understand.


    Merton whispered in Changle''s ear, "Martha is three years old. Can madam add another brother and sister to her?"


    "Ah!" Princess Changle suddenly blushed and fell into Merton''s arms.


    Changle inherited the frail constitution of the eldest grandson queen. In order to fear the loss of Qi and blood, Merton always controlled Changle not to conceive after giving birth to Martha. Now three years have passed, and Princess Changle''s body has been well maintained, so she can conceive again.


    Suddenly, the red candle went out and the red waves rolled on the bed. They lingered all night and talked endless love words until dawn.

 Chapter 1060

    On the back mountain of xuandu temple, the firearms prison is in full readiness. The head of the Mohist school, wearing a brand-new cloak, stands proudly in the first place.


    "Mo family!" Li Chunfeng said solemnly. Xuandu temple is adjacent to the firearm prison. Now the firearm prison is out for war. Li Chunfeng, as a neighbor, naturally wants to send him off.


    When Merton heard Li Chunfeng''s address, he couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "Li Taishi is a bad boy. You''d better call me Merton!"


    Mohist school is the nickname of Chang''an people, and Li Chunfeng''s solemn attitude is probably due to Merton''s amazing performance in the ink technology exhibition, which is treated as a new generation of all schools of thought.


    Although there are different ideas among the hundred schools, none of them can be called philosophers. On the one hand, they have their own leaders and have been recognized by the hundred schools. Obviously, Li Chunfeng''s statement is that Taoism recognizes the identity of Merton''s new generation of philosophers.


    "The power of transforming heaven and earth is used by people. Mohist ink technology can be called a magic skill. By such means, it is not wrong for mohou to become a new generation of scholars." Li Chunfeng sighed.


    Merton refused: "it''s just an assumption that Li Taishi doesn''t want to support and kill the boy. It''s still unknown whether he will succeed or not. It''s too early for the new generation of scholars to say."


    Li Chunfeng''s eyes flashed, laughed and changed his way: "I''d like to congratulate Marquis Mo on his victory in the western expedition."


    "Thank you for your kind words," Morton arched his hand.


    Xue Rengui took the opportunity to come forward and said, "I''d like to report to your honor that the firearms supervisor is ready to go out at any time."


    "Go out!" Merton shouted, and the firearm supervisor''s motorcade set out immediately.


    Li Chunfeng looked at Merton''s firearm supervisor and couldn''t help but draw his lips. Other armies were full of knives and guns and were murderous, while the firearm supervisor of mojiazi was covered with hundreds of carriages. It was not like an army, but a business trip.


    The motorcade of the firearm supervisor was very fast. Along the brick road of Chang''an City, it went all the way west and soon went out of the west gate.


    Unlike Hou Junji''s grand campaign in the west, the firearm supervision is silent. Firstly, the scale of the firearm supervision is too small and the grade level is very low, which is not worth sending to the court at all. Secondly, the firearm supervision is special and highly confidential, so it''s better to keep a low profile.


    There are two bases for the firearm supervision, one is the research base in the back mountain of xuandu temple, and the other is the experimental base in the Xishan military camp. The firearm supervision team goes all the way west. In front of the Xishan military camp, another huge team converges, and the whole firearm supervision system is finally assembled.


    Merton sat on the back of Emma Jue Ying, looked back at Chang''an City, and looked at the man organized firearms prison. This was his hard work for three years. Now there is finally a sign of future generations. With a big hand, the whole firearms prison set off again.


    "I inform your majesty that Marquis Mo has put on the fold and the firearm supervisor has set out as promised." pound respectfully wrote Merton''s Memorial on the ground in the Tai Chi hall.


    "The boy is finally willing to leave." Li Shimin snorted coldly, took the fold handed by Merton, and couldn''t help but snort.


    "Five hundred soldiers and five hundred men are equipped with nearly two hundred carriages and thousands of horses. Merton is really a loser!" Li Shimin said painfully. This equipment is extremely luxurious. Looking at the whole Tang army, it is also second to none.


    Over the years, the imperial court has spent money on the firearm prison. Even the Mudao team made of heavy armour is a piece of cake in front of the firearm prison.


    Pound was surprised and said, "did mohou also equip the civilian husband with war horses?"


    You should know that civilian men have always been auxiliary in combat. Even civilian men are equipped with war horses, I''m afraid it''s too much.


    Li Shimin shook his head and didn''t say anything, because he knew in his heart that there were no civilian men in the firearms prison, only soldiers. The so-called 500 civilian men were just mojiazi''s smoke bombs.


    "As long as we can break Gaochang City, it''s worth spending more money. I hope the firearms supervisor won''t let me down." Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Li Shimin has high hopes for the firearm prison. However, although the firearm prison is magical and wins many wars, there are signs of trickery. In addition, the military has long been dissatisfied with the firearm prison''s huge military expenditure every year. This time, the firearm prison can break Gaochang city in one fell swoop, and there are no hostages in the court.


    Pound said with a smile, "don''t worry, your majesty. Is there little surprise for your majesty?"


    When Li Shimin recalled Merton''s magic, he couldn''t help laughing. It should be Ju Wentai who should worry, but Li Shimin!


    The motorcade of the firearm supervisor went all the way west. Although the motorcade was huge, it did not cause much sensation. Since the brick road was built, there was an endless stream of caravans. The motorcade of the firearm supervisor was only a little larger, but the officers and soldiers of the firearm supervisor were looked at more.


    However, at the beginning of the western expedition to Gaochang, there were not many convoys to the front line to transport materials. Merton''s firearms supervisor was disguised as a group of soldiers escorting materials.


    "Mohou, this is too much! Not only pretending to be my soldiers transporting grain and grass, but also requisitioning logistics horses." Su dingfang joked.


    "Brother Su is stingy now. The weapons and equipment of the firearm supervisor don''t need to be transported by logistics officers and soldiers. He just doesn''t want to wait for some horsepower." Merton laughed and came forward to hold his hands with Su dingfang.


    The reason why Merton had the confidence to start after the firearm ink monitoring technology exhibition was that Su dingfang, who escorted grain and grass, had started their friendship before Tuyuhun on the western expedition. The reuse of Su dingfang had nothing to do with Merton. In addition, Merton''s original method of escorting grain and grass made him reused by the imperial court step by step, However, it is a pity that Su dingfang is still a logistics officer escorting grain and grass, not a general in charge.


    "Mohou is kind to me, but the military law is ruthless. Naturally, the firearms supervisor can''t requisition the horses for logistics transportation, but if it''s the same logistics army, it''s natural to use them casually." Su dingfang pointed to a huge "pledge" on the fire monitor team, Shuang Lang said.


    The two tacitly smiled at each other. Su dingfang waved his hand. The post station staff quickly changed horses for the firearm supervision team and prepared food.


    In addition to military logistics, horses in the world can not be counted as post stations, and both of them are in the hands of Su dingfang.


    After a short rest, the firearms warden set out without delay, because they were far behind the army.


    "Farewell, brother Su!" Morton arched his hands.


    "I wish Marquis Mo will win this battle, and I hate not being able to fight with Marquis Mo to kill the enemy." Su dingfang looked at the firearm supervisor''s western expedition and said with envy, which general in the Tang Dynasty doesn''t want to kill the enemy and serve the country, let alone the war of destroying the country in the western expedition to Gaochang.


    Merton looked back and said meaningfully, "don''t worry, brother Su, there will be such a day."

 Chapter 1061

    With Su dingfang''s help, Merton led a huge team of firearm supervisors to go all out on the road. He didn''t have to worry about horsepower at all. When he met the post station, he would replace the horses, and the speed was greatly accelerated.


    There are many chariots, thousands of horses and strong mobility. Although there is no way to replace horses, the personnel need to rest. At the moment, the huge energy of Mojia village has been fully mobilized. The children of the Mojia family have prepared food and accommodation in advance all the way west, Chencang, Tianshui and Lanzhou.


    After receiving the supplies, the firearm supervisor set out immediately without stopping. Although there was no limit speed of 300 Li a day at the same time day and night, the speed of 200 Li a day was enough to surpass the troops. According to this speed, the firearm supervisor had enough time to get to Yumen pass.


    However, not far from Lanzhou, the condition of the brick road has obviously deteriorated. The originally spacious brick road has become a narrow one-way road, which can only accommodate a carriage. Rao is so. This is the brick road specially made by the Ministry of industry in order to catch up with the construction period, which is only for the marching army.


    Merton looked at the brick road that could not see the end and disappeared into the vast snow. For the sound of children playing in his ears, the prosperous Inns on both sides of the brick road were pasted with red peach Charms at home and abroad, and the faint sound of family reunion, Merton remembered what day it was today.


    "It''s new year''s Eve."


    Merton suddenly counted the days. They had set out from Chang''an City for eight days.


    "Wine worship Lord, the soldiers have camped!" Xue Rengui came to Merton and listened to the order. The firearm supervisor finally set out. The army of the western expedition left many abandoned camps, but it saved the firearm supervisor a lot of effort.


    Merton said, "today is new year''s Eve. Every soldier sends a letter to his family. He can only report peace and can''t reveal a trace of military aircraft."


    "Thank you, sir!" Xue Rengui said with a happy face. Only people in the army know how valuable it is to send a letter to their family. Moreover, when the army goes to war, it can send a letter to their family and calm the morale of the army.


    "Also, every soldier will have a canned meat meal tonight! Continue to travel tomorrow!" Merton continued to order.


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui took orders and went away. Soon there were cheers in the army.


    At Merton''s strong request, the literacy rate of the officers and men in the firearm prison was very high. Even the officers and men who did not know words had to learn by themselves. After three years, there was no problem writing a family letter. Soon, thousands of family letters were written and directly put into the post station nearby.


    Next, cans of meat and cans of hair were put into the hands of the firearm officers. Soon, the whole camp was filled with a smell of meat,


    Canned meat is a commodity that has just become popular in the last three years. After making the meat, it is put into a full iron box. After sealing, it can be stored for a year. It can be opened and eaten. It tastes very delicious and is very popular in the army.


    At present, canned meat and compressed dry food are the necessary dry food for marching and fighting. Of course, most of them are portable and hungry compressed dry food. Although Mohist children prepare in advance, most of them are dry food along the way, which has long tired the officers and men of the firearm prison. With the addition of canned meat, the officers and men naturally cheered.


    As for going on the road tomorrow, the firearms officers and men have long been psychologically prepared. After all, their departure time is too short, so they naturally have to speed up their march.


    Outside the firearms camp, Merton also held a meat can and looked at Chang''an. Unconsciously, the thirteen years of Zhenguan had ended.


    "I''m homesick," said Xue Rengui, sitting beside Merton with a can of meat in his arms.


    Merton sighed, "this is the first time I haven''t spent the new year in Chang''an. It''s also the first time I left Mosha. I don''t know whether she can adapt or not."


    Every new year''s Eve, Chang''an city is the most lively, which is the happiest day for Mosha. On this day, Mosha will always receive all kinds of surprises from Mosha village. The craftsman grandfather in Mosha village will make all kinds of toys for Mosha every year, and this year must be no exception.


    "What about you?" Merton turned to look at Xue Rengui,


    Xue Rengui suddenly showed a trace of tenderness and said: "there are also wives and children in the humble family. Speaking of being a soldier in the humble position, he was inspired by the poems of mohou and supported by his wife Liu. When the humble position told his wife Liu about her work under mohou, don''t mention how happy she was. He repeatedly advised him to do his best and don''t disappoint the wine worshippers."


    Merton nodded and said, "behind every successful man, there is a woman who pays silently. His wife Liu is really a good wife."


    "Jiannei must be very happy to hear the evaluation of the wine worship Lord." Xue Rengui thanked seriously. What Merton said is probably the highest evaluation of an ordinary woman. When it came out, his wife Liu must honor the village.


    The two men sat opposite each other and talked about family affairs until night fell.


    The brick road outside Lanzhou is dark, but the whole Chang''an city is brightly lit. On New Year''s Eve, every family takes turns to watch the night, whether it''s a small family, a rich family or an aristocrat.


    In Mo mansion,


    The lights in the three-story villa are bright. Princess Changle holds Martha, while Wu Meiniang sits aside. The three people keep a vigil in front of a brazier.


    In Mo mansion, Merton has marched to Gaochang in the West. Naturally, Princess Changle, the hostess, acts as a vigil.


    "Mother, where did you say your father was?" Martha opened her big eyes and looked listless. Even the house full of new toys made her not interested,.


    "Calculate the time, your father should have passed Lanzhou." Princess Changle replied carelessly.


    "When will my father come back!" Martha naturally didn''t know where Lanzhou was, but cared about when my father would come back.


    "Soon, your father will come back after winning Gaochang." Princess Changle comforted Martha.


    "Win Gaochang? Sal hasn''t seen her father fight yet?" Martha said naively.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help laughing and said, "this is not a fight between two people, but a war between two armies. The firearms prison led by your father is the most powerful army in the world."


    Princess Changle talked about Merton''s achievements in Tuyuhun on the western expedition, and mersha''s eyes lit up,


    "Father is the best in the world," said Martha proudly.


    "That''s nature!" Princess Changle said proudly, and she took it for granted.


    "Then I want to hear my father''s story," said Martha coquettishly, snuggling in the arms of Princess Changle.


    "That starts with the secret skills of live fish..." Princess Changle held Martha in her arms and said softly.


    In the gentle voice of Princess Changle, Martha gradually went to sleep, but Princess Changle did not feel free at all, but quietly looked to the West. She believed that in all parts of the Tang Dynasty, there must be countless women like him, looking forward to her husband''s safe return.


    With the flicker of fire, the passage of time, with the bell ringing at midnight, new year''s Eve has passed and the new year has come.


    The 14th year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty has finally arrived.

 Chapter 1062

    Auspicious snow heralds a good year. On the first day of the lunar new year, heavy snow spreads all over Guanzhong again.


    "Grandpa Huang, grandma Huang!" Martha, dressed in fur and extremely cute, shouted sweetly beside empress Chang sun and Li Shimin on the snow track.


    "See your father and your mother!" Princess Changle saluted.


    "Get up!" the eldest granddaughter looked at her granddaughter and said lovingly.


    Empress changsun loved Princess Changle and mother and daughter Mosha for the Spring Festival alone. The new year sent someone to approach them to the palace, and the task of receiving people from the Mojia village was naturally handed over to Wu Meiniang.


    "What a good boy! Here''s your lucky money!" the eldest grandson took out six silver or two and handed them to Martha.


    I don''t know since when, it has become popular in Chang''an city to issue lucky money with silver tickets, especially in large families. The annual lucky money is not a small amount. In addition, the lucky money is in the hands of children. Every year, children lose copper and silver everywhere, which makes a lot of trouble. While the silver ticket is just a piece of paper, which is simple, convenient and easy to carry, It''s much more convenient than hard silver and copper money.


    "Thank you, granny." Martha took over and thanked.


    "Go! Go and play with your aunt Naoko!"


    When Martha got the lucky money, she went to play with aunt Yuzi happily. Princess Changle watched her daughter and sister play in the snow, and the sadness between her eyebrows could not dissipate.


    Empress changsun, who didn''t know her daughter''s mind, stroked the hand of Princess Changle and complained, "is Changle worried about Merton? Your majesty is really worried. At present, the Chinese New Year is coming in a few days, and Merton has to go out immediately."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but say, "the military law is ruthless. Merton is half a month later than others. If he can''t arrive at the front line on time, he will be guilty of missing the time. Even I can''t protect him."


    "The crime of losing time?" Princess Changle was startled and said, "what should I do? Now there is heavy snow. I''m going to Yumen pass thousands of miles. What should I do if I lose time because of the wind and snow?"


    Li Shimin could not help humming: "don''t worry, Merton is a thief and can''t afford to lose."


    As an emperor, he naturally knew to be more detailed. Merton was a thief. He used the flag of escorting materials all the way and used the horses in the post station. There were more Mohist children on the way. In addition, there were many carriages and smooth brick roads, and the marching speed was as high as 200 miles a day. At this speed, the firearm supervisor can reach Yumen pass in less than a month. Even if it is delayed for a few days due to wind and snow, it will not affect the departure of the imperial army.


    One word is used to describe the march of the firearms prison, that is, the march with all strength regardless of money and cost.


    "Two hundred miles a day! It''s past Lanzhou!" empress Chang sun was relieved when she heard Merton''s marching speed. She had traveled one-third of the way in just a few days, and half of the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumen had been paved. In this way, even if the rest of the way was difficult, Merton had enough time to reach Yumen pass on schedule.


    However, they do not know that the wind and snow in Chang''an city is just a little more flavor for the Spring Festival, while in the northwest, the wind and snow here is much heavier and extremely cold.


    For ordinary people, they can hide in their houses and light a stove for heating. On the vast official roads, the team has been marching against the wind and snow.


    "Worship Lord, you can''t go any further. It''s too snowy and cold. If you march rashly, the soldiers may be frostbitten." Xue Rengui said with worry as he looked at the snowy sky.


    "Frostbite?" Merton''s heart sank and looked around at the soldiers. His eyebrows wrinkled. Although the soldiers had military coats, their hands and faces were still exposed. After a while, their limbs became stiff. If they marched forcibly, I''m afraid the firearms prison would have suffered heavy losses before the war.


    "There is a village ahead. Why don''t we set up camp first and then make plans." Xue Rengui suggested. According to the map, there is a village head five miles ahead, and the firearm supervisor can replenish it.


    Merton looked at the firearm warden, cold and hungry, and could only nod.


    "Speed up and set up camp in a small town five miles away." with Xue Rengui''s loud drink, the whole firearms officers and men immediately strengthened their spirit and made concerted efforts to reach the small town soon.


    There aren''t many people in the town, but there are only hundreds of families. After the firearm supervisor was stationed, Merton looked at the map and couldn''t help frowning. Today, due to the obstruction of wind and snow, the firearm supervisor only walked 30 miles. Compared with the previous 200 miles a day, the marching speed is almost turtle speed.


    "Worship Lord, now the wind and snow block, or I''ll start when the wind and snow stop." Xue Rengui suggested.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, the firearms supervisor has postponed his departure. If it is blocked by wind and snow, I''m afraid he will really miss the time."


    The population in the northwest is very small. There is only a small town far away. There is not much manpower to clean the snow along the road. We can only wait until the snow melts slowly. In this way, when the road can go is still unknown.


    "Go and get the local village head!" Merton ordered,


    Soon, Xue Rengui arrived with a gray bearded village head,


    "Meet the Mohist Marquis!" the old man said excitedly. The official news was very well-informed. He was naturally thunderous about Merton''s name. He even heard about the amazing performance of Mohist in the recent Mohist art exhibition, but he didn''t expect to be summoned by the famous Mohist now.


    "I don''t know the name of the village head!" Merton asked.


    "Excuse me, Mr. mohou asked. I don''t need a horse!" the village head replied.


    Merton nodded slightly. The Ma family in the northwest is a big surname. There is no clan there. I''m afraid he can''t be the village head of the real power faction.


    "Ben Hou asked you, can there be cotton planting here?" Merton asked, staring at the cotton padded jacket on village head ma.


    Village head Ma said proudly, "that''s nature. The northwest is bitter and cold and urgently needs something to keep out the cold. Mohou promotes cotton in Datang, and we naturally plant it enthusiastically in Northwest China. Now every family grows cotton and makes quilts and cotton padded jackets to keep out the cold. The cotton padded jacket on Lao Zao''s body is planted in his own field and sewn by himself."


    Merton breathed a sigh of relief. His previous layout finally paid off. Now cotton is blooming everywhere in the Tang Dynasty. With cotton, the problem of freezing the firearm supervisor can be solved. If there is no cotton planted locally, he can only dismantle the quilt of the firearm supervisor.


    "Now Ben Hou needs your help. You will find the women in the whole town. Ben Hou needs them to sew two pieces of cotton overnight, one thousand sets each." Merton solemnly said.


    Village head Ma was startled and frowned: "there are not many families in the town every year, even if the quilts are removed, I''m afraid it''s not enough!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, it''s very small. It won''t use much cotton and cloth, and I won''t let them work in vain. Each set of hundred Wen is a hundred yuan silver note, which can be cashed on the spot."


    "A set of hundred Wen money!" village head Ma thought. Hundred Wen money is not a small amount. If you have money, it may be easy to do it.


    "Please tell me, I will try my best to do it." village head Ma said with a clenching of his teeth.


    At that moment, Merton picked up the paper and pen, drew two very simple patterns on the fast paper and handed them to village head ma.


    "This is a hat." village head Ma looked at the pattern of a hat shape on the drawing. The only difference was that there were two long pieces of cloth.


    "Yes!" Merton nodded. What he prepared for the firearm prison was the famous cold proof artifact of later generations, * * hat.


    **The hat was originally a winter hat of the Soviet Union. It was originally used to keep out the cold. Later, after improvement, China became a famous * * hat and became the military''s winter standard.


    If you have a * * hat, he believes that the cold problem of the firearms prison will be solved. Even if it is windy and snowy outside, the whole firearms prison can still March normally.


    "I''m sorry for my awkwardness." village head Ma can understand the * * hat, but he can''t understand another pattern. What Merton painted is very like two round tubes, with a line connected in the middle.


    Merton couldn''t help but Hao Ran said, "this is a glove. Due to the urgency of time, just make a cylinder and put it in. It doesn''t affect the horse rope and cart. In the middle is a rope to connect the two gloves, which can be hung around the neck and easy to carry."


    "See you, Mo Hou!"


    Village head Ma suddenly praised it. In this way, it can keep warm and the work is very simple. Even ordinary village women can make it easily. I have to say, it''s too easy to earn this hundred Wen money.


    With the departure of village head Ma, the whole town suddenly boils. A hundred Wen money costs only a little cotton and cotton cloth, and the work is simple. I''m afraid it''s a good business once in a century.


    It snowed all night, and the whole town was sleepless all night. The lights were bright. Every family was trying their best to make hats and gloves.


    However, it was finally found that it was not manpower and public welfare that restricted the production of hats and gloves, but raw materials. After all, cotton has only been promoted for a few years, and there is not much cotton in the hands of the people.


    "The villagers have no cotton and can''t do it anymore!" said the wife of village head Ma with a sad face.


    "How many sets have been made?" village head Ma asked.


    "Only five hundred sets," the wife replied.


    Village head Ma shook his head and said, "no, it''s not enough. It''s really not enough. Let the villagers dismantle the beaten quilt and make it into hats and gloves."


    The wife was surprised and said, "those are quilts just made this year. Now it''s snowy. How can villagers spend the winter without quilts?"


    "How to spend the winter? It''s just that you can light a fire for more than one thousand years, and these 1000 sets of hats and gloves must be completed. First, marquis Mo is on the western expedition. If you delay the military information, you and we can''t eat and walk around. Second, Marquis Mo is very generous, but he gave us enough money and a set of 100 Wen. This is a rare good price. After this village, there won''t be this shop." Village head Ma analyzed.


    The wife nodded helplessly and said, "I''ll persuade the villagers."


    "Who is Marquis Mo? But the God of wealth turns stone into gold. Whatever has been handed by him is not worth thousands of gold. Today''s hat is just a trusted thing of marquis mo. naturally, he doesn''t like it, but it can become a cash cow in our Majia village." village head Ma said excitedly.


    The wife said, "you mean, I''ll continue to make this hat and gloves in the future."


    Village head Ma nodded without hesitation and said, "it''s natural. Now it''s cold, how can mohou need a hat to keep warm? Other soldiers don''t need it? Ordinary business trips don''t need it, and herdsmen on the northern grassland don''t need it? Not to mention that mohou made this hat, which must sell well in the Tang Dynasty."


    Village head Ma is aware of Merton''s ability and influence. Once this hat is issued, it will certainly become the first choice to keep out the cold in the north. If Majia village can seize the opportunity in this opportunity, it will be of great use all his life.


    Sure enough, when village head Ma said the opportunity, the whole Majia village was boiling again. They thought it was a one-time business, but they didn''t think it could become a livelihood. At present, without any hesitation, the villagers of Majia village directly removed the new dozen cotton and made them all into hats and gloves.


    The next day, snowflakes were boiling. Even when it was bright, the sky was still very dark.


    "Complete the army immediately and get ready to go!" with Xue Rengui''s loud drink, the whole firearms prison camp was filled with grief.


    "The weather is so cold, how can we march!"


    "Yes! There is snow on the road. Even if there is a brick road, it is not conducive to the march!"


    Many firearm officers complained.


    "What are you yelling about? There will be a way to March if the sacrificial Lord orders! Don''t prepare quickly." Xue Rengui shouted.


    "Yes!" the soldiers took orders.


    The firearms prison is extremely strict in military discipline on weekdays. Although the weather is cold, the military order is strictly implemented in accordance with the military order.


    Soon, the whole firearms prison was ready, but Merton didn''t need to order to start, but seemed to be waiting for something.


    Suddenly, there was a noise in the direction of Majia village. A group of villagers came one after another, headed by village head ma.


    "Tell Marquis Mo that Majia village is lucky to live up to its fate!" village head Ma respectfully said. With a wave of his hand, hats and gloves familiar to future generations were exposed in the packages of the villagers.


    Merton took one and looked at it. He nodded with satisfaction. Although he couldn''t see it compared with later generations, his warmth was equal.


    "Well done. Here''s the hundred pass silver ticket. Please order." Merton reached out and took out the hundred pass silver ticket and handed it to village head ma.


    Village chief Ma then said, "Marquis Mo is famous all over the world. Villains can naturally trust him."


    "Let it go!" Merton waved his big hand and ordered Xue Rengui,


    Soon, the officers and men received their hats and gloves in turn. The officers and men kept them on their heads. Suddenly, a warm feeling surged into their hearts, and they would never return to the cold just now.


    "It''s really warm!"


    "This hat is good. It can protect your ears. Even your face is not cold."


    "This glove is a little stupid, but it''s enough."


    The firearm officers and men took the new equipment and were overjoyed. They immediately knew the reason why they had just ordered them to continue marching.


    "It is said that this is a hat designed by mohou himself. It is specially prepared to keep out the cold." one of the soldiers said one after another.


    "In my opinion, this hat is called mohou hat!" a soldier proposed and immediately received the response of the whole army.


    For a moment, mohou hat spread in the firearms prison. I believe it will soon spread throughout the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 1063

    "This is the entrance of Majia village to mohou. Please give me some advice." village head Ma respectfully presented a beautifully made mohou hat and gloves to Merton.


    When Merton looked down, he saw that the mohou hat was made of top-grade cloth. The workmanship was extremely fine. The style was more beautiful and warm. The gloves were different from the crude version of Merton''s design, but all five fingers could be exposed, which was warm and convenient.


    "Guidance! Is it that Majia village is going to engage in hat and glove business?" Merton felt a move in his heart and immediately understood the plan of village head ma. It''s not a gift to him, but to let him palm and eye.


    Village head Ma immediately bowed down in the snow tunnel: "Majia village has long admired mohou''s ability to turn stone into gold. It was amazing to see the hat designed by mohou today. The villagers all think that this hat is of great use. The villagers are willing to give it to mohou for free in exchange for the opportunity to make mohou''s hat."


    Village head Ma held up the 100 yuan silver note paid by Merton in cash with both hands, and the villagers looked at their hard-earned huge wealth that would be lost overnight. Although their eyes were eager, no one raised an objection.


    Merton was surprised and said, "I didn''t expect a small northwest village to have such courage."


    You should know that 100 yuan is nothing in Chang''an City, but a remote village head in the northwest is a huge sum of money, which is why villagers do not hesitate to destroy their carefully made quilts to complete orders.


    "Please allow me," village head Ma said firmly.


    "Get up! Let''s forget the money. Ben Hou hasn''t recovered the money he spent. It''s not inevitable that you want to use this hat, but your ideas can move Ben Hou." Merton said faintly.


    Village head Ma was delighted to know that Merton had agreed to half of it. At present, only the scheme of Majia village can move mohou.


    However, village head Ma knows that this step is the most difficult. You know, what can make the Tangtang ink family look at is not a small fight, but the eyes of the ink Hou with real materials.


    At present, the head of Ma village took a deep breath: "Ma village is located in the northwest. It is sparsely populated, the land is barren and the grain output is less, but it is suitable for the production of cotton. Ma village has collected enough cotton seeds and will try its best to plant cotton next year. In this way, there is no shortage of raw materials for making hat covers."


    Merton nodded and said, "this is also an advantage."


    Encouraged by Ma Cun''s growth, he continued: "as for technology, Lao Lao is ready to buy a lot of spinning machines and weaving machines. It''s best to buy Sewing machines. In this way, we can certainly speed up the production of hats."


    Merton nodded irrefutably. Village head Ma could think of spending a lot of money on machinery and expanding reproduction, but he was also a talent.


    "Finally, Majia village decided to follow the example of Mojia village, solve the human, material and financial resources of the whole village, and try its best to make mohou hats," said the head of Majia village.


    The northwest is bitter and cold. Majia village has been in trouble for a long time and has been suffering from no way out. Now there is a broad road in front of him. He naturally wants to firmly grasp it, and the best learning object of Majia village is Mojia village.


    As for the situation of Mohism, the merchants who came and went naturally have been making a lot of noise. Now that they have received the money of Mohism and used the ideas of Mohism, they should be more thorough and directly let Majia village follow the example of Mohism village. In the end, at the beginning, the foundation of mohia village was not as good as Majia village. Maybe Majia village also broke a path.


    "Imitate Mojia village!" Merton''s eyes brightened and looked at the gray haired village head for the first time. He didn''t expect that the old man in front of him had such courage.


    Village head Ma saw Merton''s performance and immediately knew that his plan was successful. Mohou was already moved.


    "Yes, Majia village is willing to take Mojia village as a template to bid farewell to the Mohist concept. All villagers collectively participate in the production of hats and gloves and share the profits." the head of Majia village said solemnly.


    Merton looked at village head Ma, shook his head slightly and asked, "do you know that many villages in the world have followed the example of Mojia village. At the beginning, they did make great achievements, but in the end, they all failed. Some were defeated by dignitaries, some were defeated by greed, some were not divided between public and private, and some were destroyed by internal fighting."


    Village head Ma bowed his head and said, "that''s because they don''t have a village head like mohou and don''t really care about Mohist ideas."


    Merton asked, "are you sure you can resist the temptation of money, the coercion of powerful people, the doubt and internal struggle of the villagers?"


    Village head Ma grew up, but finally bowed his head and said, "I don''t know."


    Merton did not laugh at him, but nodded: "You''re honest. In that case, I''ll give you the most important step to the success of Mojia village, that is to distinguish between public and private. Today, the 100 Guan money is divided into two, the 50 Guan money is distributed as the reward of the villagers, and the 50 Guan money is the capital of the whole village. In the future, it is a common practice. Half of the money earned is distributed as dividends, and half is used as the collective property of Majia village to buy machinery and equipment Raw materials, continue to work and make money. In this way, there is no guarantee of great wealth, but there should be no problem in getting rid of poverty and backwardness. As for imitating the Mohist village, it depends on your future development. "


    "Majia village will not let mohou down," Majia village said gratefully.


    Merton looked at his hat and gloves and said faintly, "the workmanship is good, but it''s a little ugly. It''s said that there are many fur in the northwest. If you lining it with a layer of fur, it''s beautiful and warm."


    "Fur!" village head Ma was overjoyed at the speech and immediately realized that this was the guidance of mohou. The biggest advantage of the northwest is animal husbandry. A large number of fur are produced and sold every year. The price is not expensive, and the fur required for the hat is not large, even some leftover materials. In this way, the cost is greatly reduced and extremely beautiful.


    "If the hat and gloves are unsalable, but go to Chang''an city to find Ink magazine, which can ensure you to get through the pass." Merton had a good impression of Majia village and couldn''t help promising.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" village head Ma was overjoyed and thanked again and again.


    But Merton waved his hand. Majia village is just his unintentional layout on this snowy road. As for that, it depends on their fate. However, as Merton said, Majia village, as the place where Merton first created the mohou hat, this gimmick alone is not a difficult problem for Majia village to get rid of poverty.


    Merton saw that all the soldiers had put on their hats and gloves, and the cold was not enough to stop the firearm supervisor. Even if the road ahead was snowy, Merton still waved his whip and said firmly, "firearm supervisor, let''s go!"


    "Yes!" the newly equipped firearm officers and men stepped on the snow again.


    When Majia village saw the firearm officers and soldiers disappearing into the wind and snow, they came back to their senses one after another and couldn''t help cheering,


    "Send people to buy Cotton immediately and try their best to make mohou hats and gloves!" Ma Cun growled.


    "Yes! Village head!"


    All the villagers responded in unison. If they were still worried about making mohou hats, but after mohou personally instructed, everyone was full of confidence.


    That''s the mojiazi, the mojiazi who turns stone into gold. All the villagers of the Majia believe that as long as they follow the guidance of the mohou, their Majia village will one day become the Mojia village in the northwest.


    Merton didn''t know that his next move would create an important textile and fur town in the northwest and become the first successful model of the Mohist village model.

 Chapter 1064

    The heavy snow was like goose feather. Soon, there was thick snow on the brick road. Even if the soldiers had enough warmth and were no longer afraid of the cold, the snow all over the ground still made it difficult to March.


    "That won''t work. It''s too slow," said Merton, frowning at the pace of the March.


    Xue Rengui frowned and said, "it''s not that the soldiers don''t work hard. Although they have hats and gloves, the snow is nearly knee deep. It''s very difficult for horses to walk, let alone people. Unless the snow is cleared, they can''t move forward quickly."


    Merton looked at the snow deep in his knees and frowned. Suddenly, he suddenly looked back and said to Xue Rengui, "what did you just say?"


    Xue Rengui wondered, "the humble position theory can''t move forward quickly."


    "Last!" Murton said hurriedly.


    Xue Rengui said, "unless the snow is cleared."


    Merton laughed and said, "yes, it''s to remove the snow."


    Xue Rengui stared at the snow all over the sky, and then looked at Merton, who was elated. He said in his heart: "the wine worship Lord is not frozen and feverish! He''s still talking nonsense. How to clean the snow all over the sky. Even if all the firearm officers and soldiers sweep the snow, how can we get on the way?"


    Merton naturally saw Xue Rengui''s doubts, and couldn''t help but Lang said, "nature doesn''t remove all the snow on the road, just sweep out the snow path that can not hinder the carriage and soldiers."


    "Zhang Mu!" Merton shouted. Since Lao Zhang tou''s eldest son Zhang Mu followed Merton into the firearms prison, he has been responsible for the equipment of Mojia village. This time, there are many vehicles and horses in the firearms prison. If they break down on the road, I''m afraid they need to be repaired. Zhang Mu naturally went out with the firearms prison.


    "Yes, young master!" Zhang Mu answered.


    "You find three carriages and transform them like this." Merton charged Zhang mufen.


    Zhang Mu looked at the snow road ahead, his eyes lit up, nodded immediately and said, "young master, don''t worry. In less than half an hour, his humble position will certainly create it."


    Merton nodded and said, "the whole army will revise and start again in half an hour."


    The firearm wardens were relieved and stopped to rest, eat some dry food, replenish energy or feed horses,


    But Merton and Xue Rengui were not idle. They all gathered around Zhang Mu and watched Zhang Mu transform into a new carriage.


    In Zhang Mu''s dexterous hands, pieces of wood were installed in the front of the carriage. Soon, a carriage with a long sharp corner in the front appeared in front of the crowd.


    "Young master, what do you think?" Zhang Mu asked with a sigh of relief.


    Merton nodded and said, "that''s it. With this sharp weapon, even on a snowy day, we still have no worries about marching.


    Zhang Mu was affirmed by Merton and immediately began to make the other two carriages.


    In less than an hour, Zhang Mu was finished, and three carriages with sharp boards in front appeared in front of the crowd.


    "Is it the chariot of the pre Qin period that the wine worship Lord built?" Xue Rengui wondered. In his eyes, I''m afraid the only chariot in the city is similar to the one in front of him.


    Chariot is a common vehicle weapon in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period. In case of war, the sharp corner of chariot money can attack the enemy, and the side plate can also protect his soldiers. Xue Rengui naturally learned it when he was in the military academy, but everyone knows that chariot is an outdated weapon in the spring and Autumn period and has been eliminated now. No one can use bulky chariots at all.


    Merton laughed and said, "yes, this is the chariot. The chariot is indeed outdated, but no one denies its power. This time, his opponent is not a flexible cavalry with bows and arrows, but the motionless snow on the road."


    "Use the siege car to remove the snow and use the car to attack the snow." Xue Rengui was shocked and couldn''t believe looking at Merton. Until now, he understood Merton''s intention.


    Merton smiled and nodded: "attacking snow with a car is an image."


    With the completion of the three chariots, the toastmaster was ready to open the road with the chariot. The news of attacking the snow with the chariot spread all over the firearms prison. A crowd of officers and men of the firearms prison watched one after another.


    Under the command of Zhang Mu, there are 16 horses standing in four rows on the official road, but these 16 horses only pull a transformed car and ride! This is an extremely luxurious thing in any era.


    "Sixteen chariots, it seems that it''s true to sacrifice wine." many soldiers smacked their tongue.


    Even in the spring and Autumn period, sixteen chariots were of the highest standard, and Merton used such a high standard chariot to remove snow, which was obviously a real move.


    With Zhang Mu''s order, the sixteen horses started slowly, and the sharp corners of the whole chariot were directly inserted into the snow on the official road. Under the strong strength of the sixteen horses, the snow on the road was lifted directly, and with the advance of the carriage, it was continuously lined up to both sides of the official road.


    "It''s really attacking snow with cars." a group of soldiers couldn''t help but smack their tongue and attack snow with the famous chariots of the spring and autumn and Warring States periods. Although it sounds absurd, it seems to have a miraculous effect.


    "No, it just knocked off a layer of snow, and the remaining snow is still very thick. I''m afraid the official road can''t go yet." a firearm supervisor stretched out his foot to test the thickness of the snow and frowned.


    Xue Rengui was an old God and said, "don''t you see that there are still two chariots?"


    Under the gaze of the crowd, two same 16 chariots set out one after another. This time, the snow on the road churned again, rolling forward like two snow dragons.


    The officers and men suddenly realized that the reason why the sacrificial Lord asked them to build three chariots was that the first chariot ate ate the snow shallower, while the remaining two chariots ate the snow deeper than one. Not only in depth, the sixteen chariots were cleverly designed, but also in width.


    The snow attack width of the first chariot is large, and the other two chariots decrease in turn. In this way, the snow turned out does not affect each other, and three snow ridges on the left and right are obviously formed on the official road, as well as a lane in the middle enough to accommodate one vehicle.


    "This time, the snow is only thick on the heels, which does not hinder the March." Xue Rengui exclaimed. After three chariots, the snow on the snow is only thick on the heels. Although there is still some snow, it does not hinder the March.


    "Wine worship is wise!" a group of firearm supervisors cheered one after another. All the soldiers were convinced of the firearm supervisor''s wine worship. It''s not surprising that the firearm supervisor overcame any difficulties under the leadership of Tangtang mojiazi.


    The chariot has been eliminated in the spring and Autumn period, but who could have thought that it would shine again in the hands of Mohist Zi? It''s incredible.


    The speed of the sixteen horses was very fast, and soon three chariots had opened a passage, enough for the passage.


    "Let''s go!" Merton said with a big hand.


    "Yes!" the firearm warden said angrily and walked on the snow again.


    No, this time it should be a snow attack.

 Chapter 1065

    "It''s snowing so hard today that it seems that there won''t be any soldiers going to Yumen pass today." at the east gate of Wuwei City, a soldier guarding the gate looked at the boiling snowflakes outside the gate and couldn''t help sighing.


    Since the western expedition, a large number of soldiers and grain and grass have passed through Wuwei. The peaceful Wuwei City in the past has been broken, and the whole Wuwei has suddenly become very busy because of the western expedition.


    Recently, the roads have been closed by heavy snow. There are no birds or animals in such heavy snow. Not to mention people, Wuwei City, which has been busy for many days, has finally recovered its tranquility.


    "It''s natural. I''m afraid such a heavy snow is rare in recent years. It''s extremely difficult for horses to walk. In addition, the weather is so cold that even the iron man can''t afford it!" the companion nodded. Everyone in Wuwei City hid in the house to keep out the cold in this ghost weather. If they hadn''t had military affairs, they wouldn''t suffer here.


    "Fortunately, with an army coat, it''s not as cold as in previous years." the doorman patted his army coat, which is the most popular army coat this year. It''s extremely cold proof. With this treasure, the doorman''s task this year will not be so difficult.


    "Yes!" the companion wrapped his military coat, thought about the cold in previous years, and nodded with lingering fear.


    It was getting dark, and it was going to be dark. The doorman looked at the snowflakes falling in the sky, frowned and said, "it''s too late. It''s impossible for any army to come. Let''s close the city gate!"


    The doorman turned back, but his companion did not move, staring straight at the end of the snow road.


    "What''s the matter?" the doorman said in surprise.


    "There''s a carriage coming!" the companion said in surprise.


    The doorman suddenly turned back. At the end of the snow road, a sixteen horse drawn carriage came on the snow, and two snow dragons lined up behind him.


    Soon, the sixteen carriage had run to the gate of Wuwei City, and then the second and third sixteen carriage with strange shape also came. I saw that in full view of the public, the originally difficult snow road had turned into a snow field only a few fingers thick, which was enough for people and horses to travel unimpeded.


    "Amazing!"


    "In this way, even if the snow is heavy, the army can still move forward as usual."


    The doormen exclaimed.


    Sure enough, behind the three carriages, an army covered with snow came on the snow. The strangest thing is that all the army wore strange hats, protected their heads, ears and most of their faces. No wonder they can march in such a snowy weather.


    "I dare to ask, but general Su is escorting grain and grass!" the doorman looked at the huge sign in front of the carriage and asked respectfully.


    Since the western expedition to Gaochang, Su dingfang''s power has gradually spread on the Longhai line. His escort of grain and grass has never missed the time, and it is extremely fast, which has been recognized by everyone.


    "The firearms supervisor led the army and asked Wuwei city to receive him." Xue Rengui came forward and said in a loud voice.


    "Firearms warden!"


    "Mojiazi!"


    "It''s Mo!" suddenly a bright voice came.


    "Happy new year to mohou!"


    The doorkeepers shouted and saluted. If someone is more famous than Su dingfang on the Longhai line, the Mohist school must be one of them.


    The name of Mohist school is well known to all natural people, not to mention that the brick road under their feet was pioneered by mohou. It is said that Su dingfang''s method of transporting grain benefited from mohou''s guidance.


    Today, they once again saw the magic of Mohism, and even attacked the snow with a chariot.


    "Get up. You can do your duty in snowy weather. You can be regarded as a dutiful person." Merton nodded.


    "Thank you for your appreciation." the guards were overjoyed. They were able to get the praise of the Mohist School and will certainly become their boasting capital in the future.


    Wuwei city is an important town. Most of the soldiers in the past rest here. There has long been a camp to receive the soldiers coming and going. There are no more than a thousand firearms supervisors. Naturally, it can be easily resettled.


    After the two gatekeepers verified that the waist card of the firearm supervisor was correct, only the soldiers led the firearm supervisor to camp.


    Soon after the firearm supervisors left, the news of mojiazi''s attack on the snow spread all over Wuwei city. Many people braved the snow to watch the brick road and saw the extremely flat snow path between the left and right snow ridges. They couldn''t help but marvel.


    It was a cold night with wind and snow. When it was bright the next day, the wind and snow finally stopped. The camp was covered with a thick layer of snow. Even the snow road opened with chariots yesterday has been completely covered.


    "The snow has stopped!"


    The whole firearm officers and men cheered one after another. The heavy snow stopped. They finally didn''t have to go forward in the snow. Although they had mohou hats and gloves, which were enough to keep them out of the cold, they suffered a lot in the snow.


    In the camp, Merton could not help showing a trace of joy when he heard the news that the wind and snow had stopped.


    "The big event is bad, sacrificing wine Lord." Xue Rengui came in a hurry and said with a frozen face.


    Merton frowned and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    "My Lord, although the wind and snow have stopped, the weather is colder. The snow on the official roads has frozen. The snow truck can''t move." Xue Rengui said bitterly.


    Merton''s heart sank and said, "the snow is frozen."


    "The humble position originally wanted to let the snowplow open the road first, but it didn''t think of it, but it couldn''t be pushed at all." Xue Rengui shook his head. Although the wind and snow yesterday was very heavy, the snow was very soft. The snowplow pulled by 16 horses opened the road smoothly.


    Now the snow has frozen, even the snowplow pulled by 16 horses has little effect, and the speed is very slow.


    When Merton came outside the military tent, a cold air rushed to his face, but he didn''t care at all. He went directly to the brick road and reached out to touch the snow on the ground. As expected, it was no longer loose and needed a little force to disperse it.


    This strength is naturally nothing to people. However, with so much snow on the official road superimposed a little, even sixteen horses soon exhausted their strength and couldn''t go far at all.


    "Wine worship Lord, why don''t we set up camp in Wuwei city now and wait until the snow melts." Xue Rengui said helplessly.


    Now the roads are closed by heavy snow, the weather is very cold, and the snow is frozen again. Even attacking the snow by car has become extremely difficult, which is not enough for the army to pass.


    Merton pointed to the dirt road on both sides of the brick road and shook his head. "Absolutely not. Do you know that there are not many brick roads after Wuwei. Once the snow melts, the official road will become muddy and the March will be more severe than now."


    Xue Rengui suddenly sank in his heart. He only thought that it was difficult to travel in heavy snow, but did not consider that the firearms prison would face a more severe test when the snow melted. Only half of the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumenguan was built. It was not long after Wuwei, and the brick road had been exhausted. The firearms prison had a lot of luggage, which was more difficult to walk on the muddy road.


    "In this way, I''m afraid the firearms prison can''t escape the crime of missing the deadline." Xue Rengui said seriously.


    Merton suddenly stood up and said, "the firearms prison can''t bear the crime of missing the deadline. There must be a way."


    "I''m going to call the horses to rotate to open the way. Even if the snow is hard, the road will be opened." Xue Rengui said helplessly.


    "No, since it''s useless to attack snow with chariots, it''s useless to open it forcibly. It''s not far away." Merton shook his head.


    "You can''t go or not." Xue Rengui was as anxious as a hot pot ant.


    At the moment, there was a sudden exclamation from the sixteen chariots that were opening the road in front. I saw that the originally thick snow had made the chariot no longer bear the heavy load, and the wood board was directly loose and damaged.


    "Young master, the villain is incompetent, which disappoints the young master." Zhang Mu came to Merton with a broken board and said dejectedly.


    Merton took the board and looked at the iron nails on it. Suddenly, his heart moved and said, "you can know why the iron nails can be easily nailed into the board."


    "That''s because the nails are sharp!" Zhang Mu replied.


    Merton smiled and said, "yes, that''s because the nails are very sharp. If we compare the snow to a board and our legs are nails, we can easily fall in, but what if so?"


    Merton threw the board in his hand flat on the snow, then jumped and stepped on the board. Under the action of the board, even if he bore the weight of Merton''s body, he only sank slightly, but he completely supported it and didn''t sink any more.


    "What''s going on?" Xue Rengui didn''t understand.


    "This is the force studied by Mohists. The smaller the contact point between an object and other objects, the greater the pressure and easy to penetrate, while the larger the contact area, the smaller the pressure and difficult to penetrate," Merton explained.


    Merton finished, but found silence. Looking back, he saw that everyone was confused. He immediately understood that he was casting pearls before swine. He couldn''t help laughing: "this is the same reason why we want to sharpen our swords."


    "Oh!" this time, all the firearm supervisors suddenly realized.


    "I know that it''s OK to chop bones with a freshly sharpened knife, but it''s difficult to cut meat with a blunt knife." Xue Rengui looked very impressed.


    Merton said reluctantly, "one truth is that this time the sudden cold weather makes the ice and snow solidify. Although it increases the hardness, it also increases the bearing capacity. We just need to change the wheels under the car into wide boards, so that the carriage won''t fall into the snow."


    Zhang Mu was stunned and said, "if the carriage has no wheels, how can it run?"


    Xue Rengui immediately looked at Zhang Mu with disdainful eyes and said, "Zhang Mu, you really have an elm head. In winter, you haven''t played on the ice in the river. It''s very slippery. Pulling several people by one doesn''t waste too much energy. Isn''t this snow a thick layer of ice?"


    Zhang Mu suddenly realized and said excitedly, "yes, we can also polish the bottom of the board, which is more smooth and labor-saving."


    "You can also tilt up both ends of the board, but press the snow in front under the car to prevent ice and snow blocking in front."


    Zhang muyue said that he was more and more excited and inspired.


    "Great, let''s have a horse sledge this time." Xue Rengui laughed loudly, but he didn''t know what he said. He just got the name of the sledge right.


    Other firearm officers and men were also proud for a while. They admired the sacrificial Lord in their hearts, as if nothing could defeat him in the world.

 Chapter 1066

    "There are so many sledges. I''m afraid they can''t be finished if they are supervised by firearms alone." Zhang Mu said with a sad face. Although he got the perfect idea, it''s difficult for Qiao Fu to cook without rice and suffer from insufficient manpower. I''m afraid it would take him a long time to build and complete the sledge.


    When Merton heard the speech, he smiled knowingly, looked back at the tall Wuwei city wall and said, "don''t worry, only someone will help."


    "Wuwei city!" Zhang Mu suddenly felt that there were only a few craftsmen in the firearm prison, but there were a considerable number of craftsmen in the whole Wuwei city. With the help of some craftsmen, the speed of building sledges must be greatly increased.


    With Merton''s order, all the craftsmen in Wuwei City responded one after another.


    The news of the Mexican family attacking the snow last night also made the craftsmen in Wuwei city enjoy talking about it. They clapped their legs and sighed one by one. Why didn''t they think of this? Otherwise, there must be another reward for the county magistrate. Did you think that just after one night, there was the news that the snow was frozen and the car failed to attack the snow.


    When all the craftsmen regretted, the news came that the Mohist family called the craftsmen to rebuild the carriage again.


    "Did the Mohists have new ink skills?" a group of craftsmen responded to Merton''s call.


    "Ink skill!" this is the highest secret skill in the hearts of craftsmen.


    Even Wuwei City has heard of the amazing performance of Mozi in the ink technology exhibition. Any craftsman doesn''t want to miss the moment to witness the miracle of Mozi, let alone participate in it. If he can learn half a move, he will benefit for life.


    When all the craftsmen in Wuwei City arrived, everyone realized that Mohism was powerful and appealing in the industry. Of course, the high salary of Mohism was also one of the reasons.


    Under the command of Zhang Mu, with the tireless efforts of a group of Wuwei City craftsmen and the full support of the whole Wuwei City, nearly 200 carriages and skis of thousands of soldiers have been completed in just one hour.


    "Drive!" with Zhang Mu''s order, six horses pulled a carriage without wheels but supported by two wide skateboards and boards, and started slowly, and the speed was faster and faster, which was no less than that of the four-wheel carriage on the brick road.


    "Success!" all the craftsmen cheered, and the magic of mojiazi was confirmed again. Even if the road was closed in the heavy snow, it was difficult to defeat the magic mojiazi.


    "All the horses are used to pull the sledge. What shall we do?" although the sledge runs on the snow, it can''t compare with the wheels after all. In the past, it needed two horses to pull the carriage, but now it needs six horses to pull it.


    All the horses of the firearm supervisor were used to pull sleds. The cavalry of the firearm supervisor immediately turned into infantry. The horse can pull the firearm supervisor''s baggage forward. What about the soldiers of the whole army? Do they have to travel hard in the snow, but their two legs can''t catch up with the four legs of the horse.


    "This time, not only the carriage should be loaded with a sledge, but every firearm officer should also step on the sledge," said Merton Lang.


    "Ah! We have to step on a wide board, too."


    "Then how to walk."


    A group of firearm officers and men shouted in an uproar. The carriage is equipped with a sled and can be pulled by horses. If they step on a heavy sled, they may even have difficulty walking.


    Merton stretched out his hand and a group of craftsmen immediately took out the quietly made reduced version of the sled. Merton selected a pair, tied them to the skis firmly, coupled with two ski poles, and walked hard on the snow. Sure enough, under the action of the wide skis, they did not fall into the snow.


    "This speed?" the firearm officers and men shook their heads when they saw Merton''s clumsy movements. The speed was not as fast as they waded through the snow.


    But Merton looked back and smiled and said, "have you ever played ice?"


    "Binghe!" many soldiers in the North could not help but move. Binghe is a common ice entertainment in the north. They wear special skates and slide on the ice. What stands in front of them is a thick layer of snow, isn''t it thick ice?


    Sure enough, under the attention of the people, Merton was pushing the ski stick hard, and its speed slowly accelerated. Soon it had exceeded the normal walking speed, even faster and faster, and finally approached the speed of the carriage.


    "The Mohist family is really amazing!" the craftsmen exclaimed. They can understand how to pull a sled by horse, but the Mohist family actually skis by people, and it seems that the speed is not slow. As a result, the people have another tool to travel in the snow.


    However, in the eyes of people''s worship, the faster and faster Mohist fell into the snow nest. Suddenly, everyone''s praise stopped suddenly, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.


    Merton got up and took pictures of the snowflakes on his body. He was embarrassed. He only saw skiing videos in later generations. He didn''t have much skills at all. He didn''t expect to make a fool of himself at once, but it also proved the feasibility of skiing.


    Merton glided back slowly, blushed slightly and said, "this thing is like riding a bicycle. Practice makes perfect. From now on, all the officers and men of the firearms supervisor will ski. This sacrifice has prepared ten empty horse sleds for you. You can take the sled unless you break your leg."


    "Yes!" a group of firearm supervisors shouted one after another, tied up skis one after another, and set foot on the snow one by one.


    One by one, the firearm officers and soldiers clumsily glided on the snow. They did not fall on the snow, but quickly stood up and continued to glide.


    Although the toastmaster said that you can take a sled if you break your leg, it''s not easy to break your leg in the snow, let alone the taste of breaking your leg. You''d better ski honestly!


    However, many savvy soldiers quickly mastered the balance skills and glided on the snow, which further confirmed the feasibility of Merton''s idea.


    "Plop." Merton fell into the snow again.


    "Worship Lord, why don''t you take a sledge!" Xue Rengui made a beautiful emergency stop in front of Merton.


    "Help me up, Ben must learn to ski today!" Morton said angrily. He didn''t expect that the skiing he designed would become his biggest problem. He saw that other soldiers had been skiing like a model, but he and a few soldiers kept falling over there.


    Xue Rengui had no choice but to order the firearm supervisor who drove the empty sledge to slow down a little, followed Merton and the soldiers, and slid forward quickly to rectify the order of the firearm supervisor.


    As the soldiers of the firearm prison disappeared into the vast snow road, the whole Wuwei city immediately became a sensation. The news of the Mexican family attacking the snow and skiing away immediately spread all over the whole Wuwei city.

 Chapter 1067

    When the roads were closed by heavy snow, the logistics force responsible for escorting grain and grass faced the most severe situation. A large amount of materials accumulated and could not be transported to the front line.


    As a last resort, Su dingfang personally came to the front and personally mobilized the young labor of all counties along the way to clean the snow on the road. Rao was so slow.


    "Fortunately, the general had expected the snow disaster and had stockpiled enough grain and grass at Yumen pass in advance." Su dingfang relaxed his breath.


    Had it not been for Merton''s convenient method of transporting grain, he could have stored it in advance, otherwise his escort of grain and grass would have been blocked by the wind and snow, and the crime of missing the time could not be avoided.


    "However, the general was spared. I''m afraid mohou was not so lucky." Su dingfang said with a trace of worry in his eyes.


    Now the road is closed by heavy snow, and he has a civilian husband to clean up the snow, but the process is still slow. I''m afraid mohou''s firearms prison is even more difficult, but to his surprise, the firearms prison is farther than he thought. Until now, he hasn''t caught up with the firearms prison.


    "Have you heard about the firearm prison!" Su dingfang asked his soldiers.


    The soldiers arched their hands and said, "I inform you, general. According to the news from the post station in front, the firearm supervisor led by Marquis Mo has braved the snow two days ago."


    "Go ahead in the snow!" Su dingfang was shocked. He was still impressed by the bitter cold that he braved the wind and snow all night during the northern expedition against Turks. In his opinion, the wind and snow the night before yesterday was almost the same as when he attacked Turks in the north. If the firearms supervisor marched forcibly, he might suffer heavy losses in the end.


    "You continue to open the way and our general comes forward to inquire." Su dingfang shouted. He believed that Merton would not go far, so he decided to move on and see where he could help.


    Su dingfang took a team of soldiers and soldiers to get on the horse and walk on the snow. Today''s horses will press the horseshoe and step on the snow surface. With enough friction, they can walk steadily on the snow surface. Although the speed is not fast, it is much faster than people''s walking.


    Su dingfang and his party kept moving forward along the official road, searching for the news of the firearm supervisor all the way, and the news they got was that the firearm supervisor had left in the snow.


    "General, there is news of mohou in Majia village ahead!" suddenly, the soldiers who explored the way came to report


    "Go!"


    Su dingfang was overjoyed and hurried forward immediately.


    "This is the hat made by mohou!" in Majia village, Su dingfang looked at the unique hat in front of him strangely.


    The head of Ma Village nodded and said, "I dare not deceive the general. This is indeed the mohou hat created by mohou. It was snowy that day. Mohou came to Majia village in the snow. The whole Majia village ran out of cotton and even dismantled the quilt. Only then did we complete the thousands of mohou hats required by mohou. Mohou looked at us and specially allowed Majia village to make mohou hats to make a living."


    "Does this thing really keep out the cold?" Su dingfang said in his heart.


    Village head Ma handed Su dingfang an mohou hat and said, "the general will know as soon as he tries."


    Su dingfang then picked up the mohou hat and put it on his head. He immediately felt a warm wrap around his head. His originally frozen red ears and cheeks were immediately comfortable.


    "It''s amazing!" Su dingfang said in surprise.


    Ma village head proudly said, "it''s natural. This thing was created by mohou. On that day, after the mohou hat was made by Majia village overnight, the soldiers of the whole army put it on, but they continued to go on the road in the face of the wind and snow."


    "You said that mohou allowed you to make mohou hats for a living. How many hats are there?" Su dingfang asked.


    Village head Ma was ashamed and said, "although mohou has left for two days, Majia village is limited by cotton and has only made 2500 pairs of mohou hats and gloves."


    Village head Ma seems ashamed. In fact, he is proud. These days, Majia village has bought out all the cotton in a radius of tens of miles. They work overtime to make mohou hats. Naturally, they know that they have an advantage by looking for the first opportunity for one day.


    "2500 pairs! OK, I want all of them, but the price needs to be discussed. I''m not as rich as mohou." Su dingfang said.


    Mojia Zi can give 100 Wen a pair. Naturally, there is nothing wrong. First, the firearm supervisor is in urgent need. Second, Merton is a famous black sheep. If Su dingfang gives 100 Wen a pair, he won''t say if he has so much money. I''m afraid he will be spit dead by the imperial censor immediately after he goes back.


    Village head Ma said with a wry smile: "the villain has received the favor of mohou. He was unwilling to accept the money. However, mohou insisted that the general wanted a great amount. The price is naturally easy to say. It only needs 20 Wen, a mohou hat and a pair of gloves. Mohjia Village can only recover the cost and a little manual fee."


    "Twenty Wen is honest." Su dingfang nodded. He also knew that cotton had just sprung up and that the price was very high, coupled with workmanship and cloth.


    "Two thousand five hundred sets are fifty yuan altogether, and this is one hundred yuan! The remaining fifty yuan is a deposit, and the general will order another ten thousand sets." Su dingfang handed a stack of silver tickets to village head ma.


    "Ten thousand sets!" village head Ma was surprised and looked at Su dingfang in disbelief.


    "Yes, it will be delivered after 10 days. I don''t know if Majia village can be completed on time." Su dingfang said. I''m afraid 2500 sets are not enough for the soldiers escorting grain and grass. These 10000 sets are ready to be sent to the front line. If the effect is good, they can continue to be customized. He is the chief officer escorting grain and grass materials, which he can do.


    "It must be finished, the general must rest assured!" Ma Cun grew up happily. He knew that he could have enough to eat with Mo Hou. Sure enough, this big business came.


    Now the heavy snow has stopped and the brick road is about to open. Once the raw materials are sufficient, 10000 sets of mohou hats and gloves are not a problem.


    Leaving Majia village in full swing, Su dingfang stood in the wind. However, under the protection of mohou hat, he could not feel the cold at all.


    "With the mohou hat, you are not afraid of the cold. It seems that brother Mo has gone farther than I thought. Let''s continue to chase!" Su dingfang waved his big hand.


    Suddenly, the party continued to move forward and walked out dozens of miles away. Su dingfang immediately found the abnormal shape on both sides of the brick road. He saw six obvious snow ridges on the official road, and enough traces of vehicles in the middle.


    "Send someone to the people on both sides of the official road to ask what''s going on?" seeing the snow ridge that has been passing in front, Su dingfang had a hunch that it must have something to do with mojiazi.


    "Attack the snow!"


    Soon, when the inquired soldiers returned, Su dingfang was surprised to hear the report from the soldiers. The Mohist school was worthy of being a prominent scholar in the spring and Autumn period. He was amazed that the Mohist family could apply the chariot popular in the spring and Autumn period to snow removal.


    "If brother Mo can think of this move in advance, how can we be trapped in this snow?" Su dingfang sighed.


    The soldiers who inquired about the news said with a smile: "Marquis Mo has this wonderful move. I think he must have attacked the snow and gone far."


    Su dingfang stepped on the thick snow under his feet and found that the snow layer under his feet had been frozen very solid. He couldn''t help shaking his head and said, "attacking the snow is only applicable to the time when the heavy snow has just fallen. Now the snow has frozen, and attacking the snow is no longer desirable."


    "So, mohou didn''t go far?" inquired the soldiers and frowned.


    Su dingfang nodded, pointed to the front and affirmed: "calculate the itinerary, the firearms supervisor will certainly be trapped in Wuwei city."


    When Su dingfang and his party arrived at Wuwei City, they were stunned to see the empty barracks left by the firearms supervisor and had a heated discussion with the whole city.


    "If you go skiing, what else can you do to the Mexican family?" Su dingfang murmured.


    "The name of the Mohist school really deserves its reputation!"


    Not only Su dingfang, but also the whole Wuwei city.


    "March in the snow, attack the snow and ski away!" this invincible natural disaster in the eyes of ordinary people is easily solved in the hands of mojiazi.

 Chapter 1068

    "General, are we still chasing?" asked the officer in charge of inquiring about the news. Su dingfang shook his head and said, "even the snow disaster can''t stop Mo Hou. The firearm supervisor doesn''t need our help anymore. Now it''s time to consider our logistical supplies."


    The soldiers who inquired about the news were relieved. According to the speed of the horse pulling the sledge, I''m afraid he can''t catch up,


    "General means horse pulling sledge?" the soldiers who inquired about the news immediately understood Su dingfang''s plan. Just as he vigorously ordered mohou hat, this time he was still ready to imitate Merton to make horse pulling sledge.


    This time, when the road was closed by heavy snow, a large number of grain and grass could not be transported. Most logistics escorts were mainly transporting materials. Naturally, skis were not used, and horse sledges could just fill the loss caused by the inability to use carriages when the road was closed by heavy snow.


    Su dingfang nodded and said: "Yes, it''s the horse pulling the sledge, and we must transport food and grass quickly this time, because there are not many turns after Wuwei. Once the heavy snow melts into water and the road is muddy, it is not conducive to the carriage. Before, the general has been worried about this. I didn''t expect mohou to solve this big problem for me. We must take advantage of the period when the heavy snow doesn''t melt Time, transport grain and grass as much as possible. "


    Su dingfang was relieved, but at the same time, he felt very strange. He had come to help mojiazi, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi had helped him a lot.


    With Su dingfang''s order, the craftsmen of the whole Wuwei City mobilized again and had the experience of building sledges last time. This time, the horse pulled sledges were made more smoothly. Soon, one carriage was changed into sledges and ready to go at any time.


    "Let''s go!" Su dingfang shouted, and sledges loaded with grain and grass slid quickly along the indentation of the sledge.


    Su dingfang couldn''t help but show a satisfied smile. The Mo family''s action was really extraordinary. Who would have thought that the snow disaster that plagued countless people in Northwest China could be overcome so easily.


    "Send the news of mohou and firearm prison back to Chang''an city. I believe Chang''an City has been in a hurry." Su dingfang ordered the post station of Wuwei city.


    "Yes, sir!" a post captain took orders.


    Soon, a horse pulled a sledge to the East. The sledge was only a post servant. It was very fast, almost the same as taking a carriage.


    With the news transmission of the post station, the magical experience of mojiazi soon spread all over the western section of the Longhai line, and there was an uproar everywhere.


    When everyone heard of Mohist''s means to overcome the snow disaster, they were surprised. At the same time, they felt unexpected and reasonable.


    It seems that this is the normal operation of mojiazi. After what bothered mojiazi that time, that was the big news.


    "March in the snow, attack the snow and ski away. I didn''t expect to be trapped by such a big snow disaster." Li Shimin couldn''t help laughing at the news sent by the post station. Merton surprised him every time.


    The ministers on one side couldn''t help laughing bitterly. They were used to the magic of Mohist Zi. However, they couldn''t help but marvel at Mohist Zi''s victory over the snow disaster. It was not an ordinary thing, but a terrible natural disaster.


    "Making mohou hats to keep out the cold, attacking the snow with backward and outdated chariots, and finally taking advantage of the snow disaster, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, created a horse sled skiing. The Mohist theory is really magical." Fang Xuanling praised.


    Mohou hat and chariot attack snow. Others may think that horse sledge is the ultimate performance of Mohist mechanics, which once again proves the practicability of Mohist theory to the world.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. Marquis Mo''s move has completely changed the disadvantages of our winter march in the Tang Dynasty. Since then, there will be no natural disasters to stop our iron cavalry in the Tang Dynasty." Li Jing arched his hand and exclaimed.


    Li Jing is semi retired and is only in charge of the military academy on weekdays. Now the western expedition to Gaochang is imminent, and Li Shimin can''t help inviting him to the battle of Gaochang.


    Li Shimin could not help nodding slightly. Since ancient times, marching in winter was the most difficult thing. Therefore, most of the war stopped in winter. Now, with Merton''s design of mohou hat, chariot and sled, it immediately complemented the shortcomings of the Tang army''s winter war, and may even become an advantage.


    At the same time, he is also very interested in the snowboard that is rumored to be comparable to the speed of horse riding in the snow. If the march in winter has this sharp weapon, Tang Jun will be even more powerful.


    "Once the ink sacrifice wine arrives as scheduled, all the troops of the western expedition to Gaochang have been in place. Next, it''s up to Hou Shangshu." Li jinglang said.


    The firearm prison is the most important link in the western expedition to Gaochang, and it is responsible for breaking through the cities of Gaochang. Now the vast snow can''t stop the firearm prison. The western expedition to Gaochang is already on the line and has to be launched.


    All officials were awed. The battle of Gaochang was the key to Tang''s competition for the western regions. Once the battle of Gaochang failed, Tang''s tentacles to the western regions would be cut off by virtue of the power of Tuyuhun in the western expedition. Once the battle of Gaochang was successful, Tang would have the upper hand in the western regions.


    Therefore, the battle of Gaochang was not only the competition for the Silk Road, but also the competition for the whole western region.


    Li Shimin firmly said, "I believe in Hou Junji and I believe in the officers and men of the Tang Dynasty."


    Since the rise of Mohism, the armaments of the Tang Dynasty have been much stronger than before. It can be said that all weapons and armor have been replaced. When various ink techniques are applied to the army, the attack and defense have been qualitatively improved, not to mention the firearms prison led by Merton, which is even more powerful.


    After going down the court, Li Shimin immediately returned to the Lizheng hall. Sure enough, he saw the princess Changle waiting there. Since the news of the heavy snow blocking the road in the northwest came, Princess Changle can be as anxious as a hot pot ant. She doesn''t need empress changsun to invite her at all. She must come to the Lizheng hall to inquire about her breath every day.


    Seeing Li Shimin coming down, Princess Changle immediately took a small step and said eagerly, "father, can you hear from Merton?"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but feel pain in his heart and said angrily: "don''t worry, if others have something, tangtangmozi will be fine."


    "Ah!" Princess Changle''s eyes lit up and suddenly realized that there was news of Merton.


    Li Shimin looked at Princess Changle''s surprised expression and suddenly tasted something. He told Merton''s news of victory over the snow disaster again.


    "If all the way goes well, Merton should not be far from the Yumen pass now." Li Shimin said.


    Princess Changle was relieved when she got the exact news from Li Shimin. What she was most worried about was that Merton was trapped in the wind and snow. Now she heard that Merton was not trapped in the snow. Instead, she was like a fish in the water. She made many strange moves and couldn''t help being proud.


    "This is her husband."


    At this moment, Princess Changle was not proud of the princess, but of Merton''s wife.

 Chapter 1069

    "Far up the Yellow River, between the white clouds, there is a lonely city and ten thousand Ren mountains.


    Why should the Qiang flute complain about the willows? The spring breeze doesn''t pass the Yumen pass. "


    Yumen pass, which used to be a lonely pass in the past, is now particularly lively. Nearly 100000 troops are stationed inside and outside the pass.


    Standing on the wall of Yumen pass, Hou Junji could not help showing a heroic breath when he saw the golden and iron horses in the pass. Such a powerful army is now under his command. This is the peak of power in his life.


    However, when he turned his eyes outside the city wall and saw the vast snow in the pass, he couldn''t help showing a trace of happiness. Fortunately, when the weather turned cold, he immediately moved forward at full speed. Rao was so. He still suffered enough in the snow, and then he arrived at Yumen pass.


    If he delays a little longer, he will be trapped on the way. At that time, the food and drink expenses of 100000 troops will be enough to make him collapse. "


    "Have all the troops been settled?" Hou Junji was complacent for a while, and then turned his head to his confidant Xin liao''er.


    Zhonglang general Xin liao''er Lang said in a loud voice: "I inform the general that 100000 troops have been settled, and only the firearms prison has not arrived."


    "Firearm supervisor! Calculate the day, the firearm supervisor should have started!" Hou Junji said.


    Xin liao''er nodded and said, "according to the agreement, the firearms supervisor should start on the day of the lunar new year. Calculate the days. The firearms supervisor should be in Lanzhou!"


    "After Lanzhou!" Hou Junji looked at the vast snow in Yumen pass and couldn''t help sneering. He gathered 100000 troops and started work day and night. Only then could he get through the road to Yumen pass, and the firearms can''t supervise a thousand people. In front of the power of heaven and earth, he is so small that he is destined to be blocked on the way.


    "Mojiazi! Mojiazi, this time you are in the hands of our general." Hou Junji couldn''t help smiling proudly without a trace of people in the vast snow.


    This is the army. Military orders are like mountains. He is the power of life and death. Even if the famous Mohist son comes to his hands, he will get down, whether dragon or tiger.


    "Yes! The Mohist school has repeatedly contradicted the general, and his humble position has long been unpleasant to his eyes."


    Xin liaoer looked dissatisfied. He was Hou Junji''s confidant. Although he was brave and good at fighting, he was extremely arrogant and domineering. He was most disgusted with scholars, especially the Mohist school who repeatedly contradicted Hou Junji.


    Hou Junji hummed coldly, "beat the drum and gather troops to point the general!"


    "Yes!" Xin liaoer couldn''t help but rejoice. This time, he must punish the Mohist son for missing his time.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    As the drums beat, the Yumen pass immediately became a sensation. All the officers and men immediately returned to the camp, and the general immediately went to the Chinese Army''s big tent to listen to the order. According to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, if there were any generals who did not reach the Chinese Army''s big tent when the drums fell, the general had the right to kill them on the spot.


    With the sudden stop of the military drum, the whole Chinese army was immediately filled with generals.


    Hou Junji sat in the position of the main general. Seeing the generals on both sides, he said with a solemn face: "where is Xue Wanjun?"


    "The end will be!" Xue Wanjun is the deputy commander of the army, second only to Hou Junji.


    "What is the strength of the core?"


    "The end is coming!" suddenly a Hu general with a Hu accent came out. Qixin Heli was quite familiar with the terrain of Gaochang, and his Qixin tribe cavalry was brave and good at fighting. It had been verified during the western expedition to Tuyuhun. He was a big general appointed by Hou Junji.


    "Where is Niu JINDA?"


    "The end will come!" general Niu JINDA of zuowuwei came out from the crowd.


    Originally, Niu JINDA had been suppressing the rebellion of the Liao people in the south. However, since the imperial court implemented the reform of the land to the flow, coupled with the cooperation between Mohism and Confucianism, the Liao people were assimilated culturally and economically. For a while, the situation of the Liao people was stable. Niu JINDA was able to participate in the western expedition to Gaochang.


    "Zhonglang will be Xin liaoer!"


    "The end is coming!" Xin liao''er came out more and more.


    As Hou Junji ordered the generals one by one, the generals gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army. Everyone was brave and good at fighting, and everyone had great achievements.


    "Firearm warden sacrifice wine Merton!"


    As Hou Junji ordered the last general, the whole Chinese army tent was suddenly silent.


    "Firearm warden sacrifice wine Merton!"


    Hou Junji ordered three times, and the atmosphere of the whole Chinese Army''s big tent began to be strange. Everyone knew that Mohist Zi delayed his departure, but Hou Junji still ordered Mohist Zi continuously. This situation is somewhat wrong!


    As the saying goes, the best way to establish authority in the army is to gather troops and point generals. According to this situation, Hou Junji is ready to establish authority on Mohist Zi.


    Who is the Mohist family? The most mysterious firearms supervisor in the army is offering wine, not to mention the Mohist family is the son-in-law of the long Princess of the Tang Dynasty, and the new generation of sons in charge of the Mohist family. If Hou Junji can win the power of Mohist family, I''m afraid no one in the whole army dares to question Hou Junji.


    But is Mohist school good for you? Not to mention the popularity of the Mohist School and the background of the Royal son-in-law, take the firearms prison as an example. The firearms prison is the only department that is not controlled by the Ministry of war and is directly under the jurisdiction of his majesty. The postponement of the Mohist School''s expedition is the consent of his Majesty, let alone the key to breaking Gaochang city.


    "Hou Junji is really arrogant or pretentious." for a moment, he thought slowly in the hearts of the generals. If it is ordinary people, the generals naturally don''t think so. When Li Jing gathered the soldiers and ordered the generals during the western expedition to Tuyuhun, some people also spoke unkindly, but Li Jing didn''t lose his mind, but just took it lightly.


    However, Hou Junji is different. Everyone knows that although Hou Junji is brave and good at fighting, he is extremely arrogant and arrogant, which is well known by all the army. Now it is the time when Hou Junji is satisfied, and only Mohist Zi refutes his face again and again. I''m afraid I can''t guess what Hou Junji can do.


    "Tell the general! Now all the troops have arrived at Yumen pass, but the firearm prison is overdue. At the end of the day, I will ask the general to cure the crime of missing the time of offering wine to mo." Xin liao''er is Hou Junji''s confidant. He immediately attacked Mo Dun with his fist.


    All the generals frowned. Seeing Xin liaoer''s statement, they immediately knew that Hou Junji had hated mojiazi, but mojiazi was the son-in-law of the eldest princess and made friends with Qin Qiong and others. I''m afraid they can''t explain if they don''t save them.


    At present, the generals looked at each other, and Xue Wanjun took the lead in saying: "general Hou, wait a minute. Now the roads are closed by heavy snow and the pipelines are banned, which is fundamentally unfavorable for the March. Marquis Mo''s loss of time was not intentional, but it was caused by natural disasters!"


    Xue Wanjun''s original intention is to use the snow disaster to cover, so that both sides can have steps to go down. In this way, Hou Junji can not only establish power, but also keep the ink family, and both sides can benefit.


    However, Hou Junji didn''t take advantage of the slope, but remained silent. Xin liaoer immediately knew it and came out again: "the military law is ruthless, even if the sky is falling apart, as long as it is the military order, we will not turn back."


    Xue Wanjun could not help but open his mouth. He immediately understood that Hou Junji was determined to take Mohist Zi Liwei. The so-called loss of time due to heavy snow was just an excuse. If he argued again, he might offend Hou Junji.


    Niu JINDA sneered: "where is the military order? As far as I know, the Mexican family refused to go out after the consent of his majesty and general Hou. Now our army has just arrived at Yumen pass for a few days, so we force the firearms supervisor to arrive at Yumen pass unless the firearms supervisor can fly over."


    Xin liao''er sneered: "our army just started 20 days earlier than the firearm prison. In my opinion, if the firearm prison is given another 20 days, the firearm prison will not reach the Yumen pass. The crime of missing the time is inevitable."


    "Twenty days, in my opinion, it hasn''t been twenty days. According to the military newspaper, the Hu people have noticed the trend of our army. Although there is heavy snow, Gaochang and other countries will certainly receive the information of our Datang expedition. Our army still has two thousand miles of Gobi desert to March, but we don''t have much time to wait for the mojiazi for ten days at most. Once the snow road is opened, the army will go out immediately, ten days later Later, if the Mo sacrificial wine and firearms prison can''t reach the Yumen pass, don''t blame the general for his ruthless military skills! "Hou Junji drank coldly.


    No one dared to face up to Hou Junji''s cold eyes. Hou Junji regarded the western expedition Gaochang as his upcoming military achievement and regarded it as the cornerstone of his power. No one was allowed to refuse at all. It was obvious that Mohist school had repeatedly rejected the western expedition and had become a thorn in his eye.


    Niu JINDA couldn''t help sighing. He had won ten days for mojiazi. As for whether mojiazi could arrive, he was resigned to fate.


    "Report! Tell the general that the firearm supervisor has arrived at Yumen pass and asked to enter." suddenly a soldier ran away and reported.


    "What?" in an instant, everyone was stunned. As Niu JINDA said, unless the mojiazi can fly, it is absolutely impossible to start 20 days late and arrive so soon.

 Chapter 1070

    "Do you know the consequences of cheating the general?" Hou Junji stared at the soldier. He was just about to take Mohist ziliwei, but he didn''t expect to be beaten in the face so soon.


    The soldier was immediately frightened and said, "how dare the villain deceive the general? The scouts have confirmed that the firearms supervisor is outside the pass. The general will know when he closes the jade gate."


    Hou Junji naturally knows that soldiers can''t lie, and no one dares to pretend to be a firearm supervisor. The only possibility is that mojiazi has created a miracle again. At that moment, he turned his face and said with a smile: "let''s see the famous mojiazi''s ability to march in the snow."


    The whole scene was suddenly relaxed, but the strange atmosphere could not be removed.


    When the general boarded the city wall of Yumen pass in public, he saw an army stopped outside Yumen pass. However, this army was quite strange. Everyone wore airtight hats, could not see his face clearly, and stepped on huge boards. What was more strange was that the carriage behind them had no wheels, and what was more frightening was that their glasses were as big as ox eyes, dark and reflective.


    "This!" since Mohist made astronomical telescopes for Taoism, military telescopes are inevitable. Now most of the generals in the army have one hand. When they saw this strange scene through the telescopes, they couldn''t help taking a breath,


    "In terms of the number of people, it''s like a firearm prison." Xue Wanjun wondered.


    "But this man, this car!" how other generals looked, how strange.


    Hou Junji was flustered, but he snorted coldly: "we are the people of the army. We can fight on the battlefield. Those demons and ghosts can bear our evil spirit."


    "Yes, extraordinary people can do extraordinary things. I''m afraid it''s such strange equipment that makes the firearms supervisor move freely in the snow and reach Yumen pass in advance." Niu JINDA guessed.


    In the telescope, the leader slowly took off his sunglasses as big as an ox''s eye and his airtight hat. It was Merton''s appearance.


    "It''s really the Mohist family!" everyone was relieved. As for this strange set of equipment, I''m afraid it''s the secret of Mohist family''s flying in the snow!


    Outside Yumen pass,


    Merton looked at the huge Yumen pass and couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief. He finally arrived at Yumen pass before the snow melted,


    Due to the heavy snow blocking the road, all the horses in the post station have been fully rested. Along the way, the firearm supervisor constantly requisitioned the horses in the post station and logistics transportation. It can be said that the whole post station and military logistics are serving the firearm supervisor. Coupled with the magical effect of snowboarding and horse sledge, the speed of the firearm supervisor''s March can be said to reach the extreme, so that he can start 20 days late, In addition, Hou Junji delayed for several days in the heavy snow before reaching Yumen pass almost the same as the army.


    "Winter hat, snowboard, horse sledge!" a group of generals gathered around the firearm supervisor with strange shapes. They were not surprised. They were curious about Merton''s secret weapons that can cross the snow. But Merton was the first to arrive at the firearm supervisor. They didn''t know that Merton''s winter hat had been called mohou hat by the world.


    "However, with these three kinds of equipment, even if the road is blocked by heavy snow, it can still be unimpeded," Merton said without reservation.


    "If the army had this equipment, why should we struggle in the snow for several days?" Xue Wanjun sighed.


    The generals nodded one after another. Although Hou Junji was dissatisfied with Mozi, he also knew the importance of these three treasures. I''m afraid the military will have to have these things in winter in the future.


    "These three things are all right. Why do you think everyone wears sunglasses? I''m surprised!" Niu JINDA stared at Merton''s diagonal sunglasses and said discontentedly.


    Other generals also nodded one after another. Everyone in the firearm prison had a pair of sunglasses. Coupled with the strange shape, it was really seeping from a distance


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "boy, this is also a last resort. The firearms supervisor marched in the snow for days. He will get snow blindness. Only sunglasses can prevent it."


    Merton also let the generals see his red glasses. Fortunately, the Mohist glasses shop opened all over the Longhai line. He collected all the sunglasses in the Mohist shops in the passing County along the way, which was enough for the firearm supervisors.


    The generals suddenly realized that they also had the experience of attacking Turks in the north. Naturally, they knew that if people walked in the snow for a long time, they would see white snowflakes, which would easily lead to snow blindness and serious blindness.


    "We march in the snow with simple steps, and the ink offering wine snow March is not only like a fish in water, but also a combination of strange moves, so that we will have no future trouble in the snow march in the future." Niu JINDA praised.


    "The grassland tribe is often trapped by heavy snow in winter, and mohou''s move has also benefited all parts of the grassland." Qixin Heli solemnly said that his Qixin tribe will suffer countless snow disasters every year. Now Merton has the method of walking on the snow, which is the gospel of all parts of the grassland.


    Hou Junji saw that in the twinkling of an eye, mojiazi became the focus of the general. He simply ignored him as the main general and couldn''t help but look gloomy.


    Merton naturally noticed that there was a trace of strangeness and the vague sign of Niu JINDA. At that moment, he hugged his fist and said, "inform the general that the whole army of the firearms supervisor has come to report. Please allow the general to enter the customs."


    Hou Junji looked at Merton with complex eyes and said, "Ben will be very satisfied that the firearm supervisor can start late but arrive early. Xin liao''er, go and find some empty camps for the firearm supervisor in the pass."


    Xin Liao''s son immediately looked like: "tell the general, there are 100000 troops in Yumen pass, and the firearm supervisor came the latest. There has been no empty camp for a long time. What if mohou and the firearm supervisor were stationed outside the pass?"


    "Outside the pass!" the generals frowned. What Xin liaoer said is true. Yumen pass is not a large place, and 100000 troops have already filled it up. Even many soldiers camped outside the pass. Xin liaoer''s decision to let the firearms supervisor camp outside the Yumen pass can be justified, but Merton is a master general. How can he camp outside the pass.


    Merton took a deep look at Xin liao''er, shook his head and said, "it''s not that Mo is not sensible, but that all the gunpowder behind Mo is damp. Seeing that the ice and snow will melt, once the gunpowder is damp and affects the western expedition, general Xin can''t afford the responsibility."


    Xin liaoer couldn''t help but glare at Merton.


    Merton was not afraid at all. He sneered: "not to mention that gunpowder is the top secret of the Tang Dynasty. We must be absolutely safe. Only Yumen pass, where there are a large number of troops, is the most suitable. Camping outside the pass is windy and unprotected. Once there is a slight difference, general Xin can''t afford this responsibility, even Mo can''t afford it."


    Hou Junji''s face sank and he said coldly, "Xin liao''er, go to the Yumen pass to find the camp for the firearm supervisor immediately. If you can''t find it, spare your camp."


    Although Hou Junji is arrogant, he also knows that Li Shimin attaches great importance to gunpowder. Once the gunpowder is leaked, not only the Mohist son can''t afford it, but also he can''t afford it.


    "Yes!" Xin liao''er bowed and immediately took the order to leave.


    Merton said faintly, "thank you, general Xin. There can''t be anyone around the firearm prison camp in case of an accident. Please pay more attention to general Xin."


    Xin liao''er stumbled. According to Merton''s request, I''m afraid all his subordinates will move outside the Yumen pass.


    Hou Junji''s face changed when he saw this scene and said, "when Mo sacrificial wine and firearm prison arrived, our western expedition army finally assembled. When the western expedition to Gaochang, our general had to rely on the power of Mo Hou''s gunpowder."


    Merton said faintly, "I''m sure I won''t let the general down."


    Even outside the vast Yumen pass, the north wind roared, and a strong smell of gunpowder still couldn''t dissipate.

 Chapter 1071

    In the Yumen pass that night,


    In the huge military tent, Merton looked at the secret letter in his hand and frowned.


    Although Hou Junji is the Lord general in power, he can''t cover the sky with one hand. On the night Merton arrived at Yumen pass, someone warned Merton.


    "Hou Junji is really like what later generations said. He is arrogant and boastful, and he will repay any evil." Merton shook his head and said that the Mojia village was too busy for himself. He didn''t want to participate in the western expedition. Hou Junji personally asked him to agree. In addition, postponing the western expedition was something Hou Junji had promised. He had moved from years later to years ago, a month earlier, Once on the road, he was even faster and hurried to Yumen pass without stopping for a moment. Unexpectedly, Hou Junji still hated him.


    "Fortunately, with the help of general Su, the firearm warden used the unique skills of Mohism to turn the snow disaster into benefit, which enabled him to come as quickly as possible. Otherwise, the crime of missing the time must be avoided." Xue Rengui said happily. Once the firearms prison is charged with the crime of missing time, the Mo family, as a son-in-law, may escape, and the whole firearms prison may be cleaned.


    "It seems that the firearm supervisor should be careful!" Merton nodded and suddenly exclaimed, "no, it seems that the firearm supervisor has implicated general Su this time!"


    With Hou Junji''s character, now he has lost face in the firearms prison. He will certainly vent his anger and help Su dingfang in the firearms prison, not to mention that Su dingfang and Hou Junji still have deeper disputes.


    Hou Junji has an extremely persistent desire for military merit. Even in order to improve his military ability, he does not hesitate to lower his status and worship Li Jing as a teacher. However, Li Jing believes that Hou Junji has an improper mind and does not teach Hou Junji all his military skills.


    Su dingfang is a proud disciple of Li Jing and has won the true biography of Li Jing. In this way, Hou Junji and Su dingfang naturally have deep contradictions, but the apparent relationship between teachers and brothers has not been broken.


    "Now hou Junji wants to win over Merton, but Su dingfang helped Merton, which must be the fuse between the two martial brothers." Merton sighed helplessly.


    Sure enough, three days later, Su dingfang arrived at the Yumen pass and found the door at the first time.


    "Please help me!" Su dingfang asked for help directly.


    Merton''s heart sank, frowned and said, "what happened."


    Su dingfang sighed: "general Hou got mohou''s method of breaking the snow disaster, decided to send troops to Gaochang in advance and ordered the logistics to borrow mohou hats and dry food of 100000 troops."


    "So fast?" Morton was surprised. He didn''t expect Hou Junji to be so anxious. However, thinking about it, if he set out one day earlier, he would have more confidence in victory. Once the army had mohou hat, it would be enough to resist the cold and come and go freely in the snow disaster. Although Hou Junji was arrogant, his military literacy was very high, so he naturally seized the opportunity.


    Su dingfang nodded and said: "It''s not difficult to just be the mohou hat of the 100000 army. As long as there are enough cotton and enough female workers, it can be easily made. It happens that there is no shortage of these two points in the northwest. The only difficulty is the military food of the 100000 army. This is a Gobi desert with a distance of 2000 miles. There is no firewood to make a fire. The soldiers can only feed their hunger with dry food. This is a great project."


    Merton frowned and said, "but the army is short of food?"


    "No, thanks to the guidance of mohou and the shortcut of brick road, Su has already transported enough grain and grass for hundreds of thousands of troops to Yumen pass for months. However, in order to store and transport, most of the logistics are grain such as wheat, which can not be eaten directly. It needs to be ground into flour and made into dry food. This is what bothers Su most."


    Merton immediately expressed deep sympathy. The dry food of 100000 troops for months was not a small amount. Coupled with Hou Junji''s sudden request for advance, Su dingfang was in a dilemma. Although there was a reason, if he couldn''t finish it, he would certainly be heckled by Hou Junji.


    "This matter has nothing to do with mohou. Su didn''t want to involve mohou, but Su really had no choice, and mohou was resourceful and had the courage to ask mohou for an idea." Su dingfang apologized.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "brother Su, what''s your explanation? If brother Su didn''t help you all the way to the western expedition, Mo would certainly be unable to escape the crime of missing the time. Today, brother Su is in trouble, Mo would certainly help you with all his strength."


    Su dingfang ordered the post station and logistics troops to help Merton on his way. Merton naturally kept this kindness in mind. Now Merton took out a token and said, "don''t worry, brother su. Take this token and all the meat cans of the Mohist family in Longyou will be dispatched by brother su."


    Canned meat is ready to eat. It can be eaten as long as it is opened. There are not many canned meat sold by Mohists in Longyou, which is enough to cover a lot of dry food.


    "Thank you!" Su dingfang accepted the token, but did not leave. Compared with the cost of hundreds of thousands of troops for months, the canned meat in Longyou is just a drop in the bucket. Moreover, even if the Mohists sell enough canned meat, he can''t afford it. Is it true that the root of the problem is to grind a large amount of wheat grain into flour and make dry food in a short time The right way, and this can only be achieved by Mohism.


    "Grind it into flour in a short time." Merton frowned. "Then mobilize human and material resources to seize the time. There are so many horses in Yumen gate. It''s not enough for you."


    Su dingfang said with a wry smile, "manpower and horsepower are enough, but I''m afraid it''s too late to build a millstone now."


    Merton thought thoughtfully, "so what you need is to grind the surface at the fastest speed under the current grinding plate."


    "Yes, now Su can only place his hope on Mohist ink technology." Su dingfang looked at Merton with a hopeful face. He hoped that Mohist Zi could continue the magic of Mohist ink technology and solve his problem.


    However, to his disappointment, Merton shook his head without hesitation and said, "this can''t be done with the existing ink technology."


    "Ah!" Su dingfang was disappointed.


    At this time, a gust of wind mixed with cold air blew into the firearm supervision tent. Merton was frozen. Suddenly, he had an idea and stepped out of the tent despite the cold. In an instant, the strong northwest wind chilled his whole body to the bone.


    "Hahaha! Brother Su, do you know about the ink art exhibition just finished by Mohism!" Merton laughed loudly without fear of the cold wind.


    Su dingfang nodded. He was in charge of the post station. The news was the most well-informed. Naturally, he knew the news of the ink technology exhibition, and Merton delayed his departure because of the ink technology exhibition.


    Merton opened his arms and let the strong northwest wind disturb his clothes. He said proudly, "it is naturally impossible to do it with the existing ink technology of the Mohist school, but the ink technology of the Mohist School in the future can''t do it."


    Su dingfang moved in his heart and suddenly said, "is it the wind that mohou said?"


    He immediately thought of Merton''s idea of turning the power of heaven and earth into human use in the ink technology exhibition, as well as the Mohist''s huge dam plan. Naturally, there are no rushing rivers in the northwest, but only howling winds.


    Merton laughed and said, "yes, the power contained in the northwest wind blowing all over the desert is so huge. If we can make use of a trace, it will be enough for brother Su to get through the difficulties."


    Merton naturally thought of the rotating blades everywhere in the northwest in later generations. Of course, this time he didn''t want to build a wind turbine, but a wind mill.

 Chapter 1072

    "Wind mill? The wind can also push the mill? How is this possible?" Su dingfang was unconvinced. In the impression of the world, the millstones were made of stones and were extremely heavy. No matter how strong the wind was, they couldn''t move a penny.


    "Sure!" Merton nodded without hesitation.


    "Brother Su, don''t underestimate the power of the wind. The power of the wind is extremely huge. It''s said that there are hurricanes in coastal areas in summer and autumn, which can destroy the sky and the earth. It''s not just stone mills, but even houses can be uprooted. Moreover, tornadoes are often very destructive in the mainland. Although the wind in the northwest is not as strong as coastal hurricanes, it''s also more powerful and lasting ¡£¡±


    Su dingfang nodded. He naturally heard about the power of tornadoes and coastal hurricanes. However, hurricanes have super destructive power and uncertainty. I don''t know when they will blow and end quickly. The northwest wind is popular all year round. What Merton said is feasible, and the northwest wind is not small and has no strong destructive power, For human use.


    "Of course, a single wind can''t blow the stone mill. We need to collect quite a lot of wind power. With the help of the lever principle, we will be able to build the wind mill. Once the wind mill is built, not only the grinding speed is very fast, but as long as the wind is still there, we can turn around day and night. In this way, we will be able to grind the food needed by 100000 troops in the shortest time." Merton said excitedly.


    "So good!" Su dingfang was overjoyed. He had come to the Mohist family with a try attitude. Unexpectedly, the Mohist family didn''t disappoint him and came up with such a wonderful move.


    "Zhang Mu!" Merton roared.


    Zhang Mu, who had already listened to the excitement, suddenly replied, "yes, young master!"


    "The task of making the wind mill is up to you!" Merton said solemnly.


    Zhang Mu said proudly, "you must live up to the young master''s expectations!"


    Since Merton put forward the idea of Mohism in order to turn the power of heaven and earth into human use in the ink technology exhibition, almost all the children of Mohism have been astonished and amazed at the so-called dam plan. However, no one thought that the first thing Mohism realized was wind power. More importantly, it was the wind mill made by Zhang Mu that verified the concept of Mohism in the future. How can Zhang Mu not be excited.


    At present, Zhang Mu does not stop and leads a kind of military craftsmen to work overnight. The wind mill is rarely an idea, not a machine. With Merton''s guidance, he can certainly create the wind mill at the fastest speed.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Tell general, a hundred mile snow trail has been opened outside the Yumen pass!" Xin liao''er hurried to report to Hou Junji with a happy face.


    With 100000 troops in hand, Hou Junji was already at the peak of power. Since he had decided to go ahead of time, the war machine of Datang started immediately at the command of the order.


    A large number of soldiers left the customs immediately and dug ice to open the way in advance to prepare for the western expedition.


    "A hundred miles of snow path!" Hou Junji frowned and said, "it''s not enough. It''s not enough. At least three hundred miles of snow path should be opened."


    There are only a few dirt roads outside Yumen pass. Not far from Yumen pass, there is the endless Gobi desert. It''s just time to March when the snow doesn''t melt. Although the snow is heavy, this water vapor is a drop in the bucket for the vast Gobi desert and will melt soon.


    "Yes! I''m sure I''ll go all out, and I''m sure I''ll get through the three hundred mile snow road before I go out." Xin liao''er promised.


    "Hmm!" Hou Junji nodded with satisfaction. Although Xin liao''er was ignorant and incompetent, Hou Junji was loyal to him and carried out his orders to the letter. This time, he specially took him with him during the western expedition.


    "By the way, the road of the western expedition is about to be opened, and whether the winter hat and dry food are ready." although the saying of mohou hat has come, Hou Junji doesn''t want to raise the prestige of Mohists. He usually matches it with winter hat.


    Xin liao''er frowned and said, "a batch of winter hat and dry food have arrived. According to his subordinates'' estimation, there should be no problem to complete it before the expedition, but dry food....................."


    "What''s wrong with the dry food? Can''t it be that this batch of dry food?" Hou Junji couldn''t help feeling happy. When he gave Su dingfang an order, he already knew that Su dingfang couldn''t finish it. At that time, he should take a good hold of this younger martial brother.


    Xin liao''er said with a little hatred: "general Hui, it''s not that this batch of dry food can''t work, but it''s great!"


    "The dry food is so good?" Hou Junji said unexpectedly.


    Xin liao''er gritted his teeth and said, "the general doesn''t know. This batch of dry food is not ordinary dry food, but canned meat produced by Mojia village. It''s valuable. The general thinks it''s good."


    "Well, well, it''s really great. In this way, my 100000 army has a blessing in the mouth. After seeing this younger martial brother of the general, he really has some skills. No wonder he can be valued by Master Li!" Hou Junji laughed freely, but his heart was cold. Su dingfang''s military grain was canned meat produced by Mojia village, which shows that the two people who disgusted him joined hands again.


    However, he enjoyed the success of Su dingfang''s shipment of canned meat. First, he could buy the hearts of the soldiers with these canned meat. Second, he wanted to see how much money the Mohist family had to support 100000 troops to eat canned meat.


    Xin liao''er snorted coldly, "the general doesn''t know that this batch of canned meat can be worth a batch of military food, but it''s only a drop in the bucket for the military food of 100000 troops, while the logistics production of dry food is progressing slowly. At this speed, Su dingfang can''t complete the task of dry food of 100000 troops at all."


    Hou Junji couldn''t help but be proud of himself. The situation at this time was most favorable to him. On the one hand, the existing dry food was enough for the army to take the lead, and Su dingfang was doomed to fail to complete the task. Wouldn''t he let him handle it.


    However, a burst of cheers from the outside made him frown. Even if the wind roared, it clearly spread to his ears. It can be seen how much noise outside was. This was an intolerable thing for Hou Junji, who was very strict in running the army.


    "What''s going on?" Hou Junji shouted! Despite the roar of the northwest wind, Hou Junji took the lead in getting out of the big tent of the Chinese army. This is the most commendable part of Hou Junji. Although he is arrogant, he has the courage to take the lead.


    "Tell general, the voice came from the north wall of Yumen pass." Xin Liao looked for a voice.


    "Go!" Hou Junji''s face sank and took the lead to get on his horse and go towards the north city wall.


    When they arrived at the north wall of Yumen pass, they found that Xue Wanjun, Niu JINDA and other generals were there, and his most hated mojiazi and Su dingfang were also there.


    "See you, general!" the crowd saluted when they saw Hou Junji coming.


    "What happened here? Why did soldiers make noise?" Hou Junji shouted coldly.


    Xue Wanjun bowed his head and said, "the general will know when he looks outside the city wall."


    Hou Junji immediately picked up the steps and went up, and the generals gave way one after another. Hou Junji went to the north city wall and saw a group of military craftsmen surrounded a huge shelf. The three huge fan leaves on the shelf were particularly eye-catching. Driven by the strong northwest wind, the fan leaves rotated rapidly against the wind, and everyone could vaguely hear the roar of the fan leaves across the air on the city wall.


    To everyone''s surprise, driven by the rotation of the fan blades and under the shelf, a grinding plate rotates rapidly driven by the mechanical device, which is much faster than the man horse grinding.


    "This is..." Hou Junji was stunned there.


    Su dingfang showed a trace of pride and said, "I don''t know if the general has ever heard of mohou''s concept of transforming heaven and earth into human beings. This is mohou''s latest ink technology, wind grinding, which can grind the surface without manpower, and the speed should be ten times faster."


    Hou Junji couldn''t help but look gloomy. Naturally, he also wanted to know why mojiazi repeatedly postponed the western expedition for an ink technology exhibition. As soon as the ink technology exhibition was over, everything about the ink technology exhibition had already reached his ears for the first time.


    "Make the power of heaven and earth used by people!" Hou Junji, who doesn''t like reading, naturally scoffs at the Mohist theory. However, when he sees that no animals pull the mill, the wind alone makes the mill really fast. Even he is amazed at such a magical thing.


    However, he was ashamed and angry that the ink technique created by Mohist Zi''s latest theory failed his plan. With this wind mill, Su dingfang could easily complete the dry food of 100000 troops.

 Chapter 1073

    With the high-speed rotation of the air mills and the rapid rotation of the grinding plates, bags of wheat are poured in, and soon become bags of wheat bran and flour. The efficiency is much faster than that of people in the past.


    Wheat bran can be used for horses, and flour can be made into dry food, which is also the reason why most wheat is transported in logistics.


    "There is no need for human and animal power, and it doesn''t stop day and night. The efficiency is several times that of human power. The wind mill is really magical."


    "The power of transforming heaven and earth is used by people. Mohist theory is so mysterious!"


    "The magic of Mohism continues!"


    The generals and all the officers and men marveled again and again. For a moment, the Mohist School became the most shining among the kings of the western expedition.


    From mohou''s hat to attacking the snow and skiing, mohjiazi has created the fastest marching discipline in the snow, and then to today''s wind mill, mohjiazi has created too many miracles, shocking people one after another.


    Hou Junji''s face changed again and again. At last, he looked at the Mohist son boldly and said, "well, it''s worthy of being the Mohist marquis. Today, it''s an eye opener for the western expedition army. The Mohist sacrifice wine created a wind mill and solved the problem of dry food for 100000 troops. The general first made a contribution to the Mohist sacrifice wine and received a reward from his majesty after winning back to the dynasty."


    The generals immediately agreed. For a moment, everyone congratulated Merton, and there was harmony among the generals.


    "General Su, with the wind mill now, I don''t know when the dry food of 100000 troops can be solved?" Hou Junji asked.


    Su Ding Fang zhengse said, "tell the general that it can be completed in eight days at most."


    Hou Junji nodded and said, "since all the generals are here, it will save the general a trip. Here he ordered that the whole army march to the West immediately after eight days."


    "Yes! Obey the general''s order!" the generals took orders one after another.


    Hou Junji was the commander of the western expedition. At the command, the whole Yumen pass immediately ran like a huge millstone. All the soldiers were preparing for the expedition.


    Eight days later, the majestic Army stood proudly outside Yumen pass. Hou Junji stood on the wall of Yumen pass. Looking at this powerful force under his command, he couldn''t help being proud. With this army, Gaochang is nothing to mention.


    Not to mention that he also chose a time that Gaochang could not think of. Early spring!


    not bad It''s early spring!


    He was eager to go to war. He didn''t just want to embarrass Su dingfang and Merton. He didn''t just want to catch Gaochang unprepared. He also had a more important consideration, that is, water.


    The biggest test of the vast Gobi desert for the army is not food, but water. Since mojiazi invented compressed dry food, food is no longer a problem for the army. The compressed dry food, which is easy to keep and carry, is enough for the army to support the Gobi desert for two thousand miles, even longer.


    But water is not good. It is impossible for the army to carry a large amount of water through the Gobi desert for two thousand miles. The only way is to get water on the way.


    But what the vast Gobi Desert lacks most is water. Where is the water to support 100000 troops, but it is not a problem in early spring. Isn''t the snow all over the ground water?


    When he was in Tuyuhun during the western expedition, he was responsible for the South army, which also lacked water and grass. The staff sergeant milled ice and horses made snow all the way. Now he is just doing it again.


    Moreover, the situation they are facing now is much better than Tuyuhun in the western expedition. At that time, they not only lacked winter clothes, but also faced plateau reaction. Now the western expedition army has winter hats and cotton coats, which is a smooth road all the way. This is the whole reason why he is eager to send troops.


    "Mo family, you think you are proud of the scenery, but you don''t know how much you have helped me!" Hou Junji said with a trace of pride when he looked at the most prominent firearm supervisor in the 100000 army.


    "General, it''s time to go!" Zhong Lang reminded Xin liao''er behind his back.


    Hou Junji nodded and said in a loud voice, "Gaochang is rude to my Tang Dynasty, and even more so to your majesty. Today, we are launching a military expedition to recover justice for my Tang Dynasty and your majesty."


    "Get justice!"


    "Get justice!"


    One hundred thousand soldiers shouted in unison.


    Hou Junji nodded with satisfaction and shouted, "I will win this war in Datang!"


    "Datang will win!"


    One hundred thousand soldiers shouted again.


    "Go to war!" Hou Junji took out his long sword and shouted.


    In an instant, hundreds of thousands of soldiers turned from silence, like an iron dragon rushing to the West.


    Hou Junji is full of confidence at the moment. Most of these 100000 troops have participated in the western expedition Tuyuhun. They have experienced hundreds of battles. He believes that after this war, he will be able to take Wentai''s head and return home. He will become the second general to destroy the country after Li Jing. At that time, he will be successful.


    Hundreds of thousands of troops were mighty and spread for nearly ten miles. Along the way, the troops marched quickly along the snow path opened by Xin liaoer, reaching a hundred miles a day. After three days of rapid march, the snow path opened by Xin liaoer had been completed, and the march was in trouble again.


    Hou Junji was happy and not afraid, but with a big hand, three special vehicles appeared in front of the armies.


    I saw three special vehicles, each with a special iron sharp corner in front, which needs to be pulled by dozens of horses, and hundreds of soldiers behind the vehicle. Under such a powerful push, the snow along the way, even if it has been frozen, is still easily pushed to both sides.


    After three special vehicles passed, the remaining snow was not deep enough for the army to pass.


    "Attack the snow!"


    The generals could not help but change their faces. They did not expect that Hou Junji used the tactics of attacking the snow used by Mozi before. This time, Hou Junji used an enhanced version, not a simple version of Mozi,


    Special carriages, strong horses and manpower, and the snow track is not ice after all. It succeeded under the strong promotion.


    "The general is wise!" Xin liao''er took the lead in complimenting.


    Hou Junji laughed and said with complacency, "I''ll make you laugh by borrowing ink to offer wine."


    Merton bowed his hand and said, "the general is modest. Attacking the snow and walking is the way of the military array. The attacking the snow and walking used by Mo can only promote the newly fallen snow, but the attacking the snow and walking used by the general can still promote after freezing in the snow. The practicability has exceeded the humble position."


    Special carriages, strong horses and manpower, and the snow track is not ice after all. It succeeded under the strong promotion.


    "The general is wise!" Xin liao''er took the lead in complimenting.

    Merton bowed his hand and said, "the general is modest. Attacking the snow and walking is the way of the military array. The attacking the snow and walking used by Mo can only promote the newly fallen snow, but the attacking the snow and walking used by the general can still promote after freezing in the snow. The practicability has exceeded the humble position."

 Chapter 1074

    "Sure enough, I didn''t expect it!" Hou Junji said proudly as he looked at the marching speed of the army.


    Under his deliberate early departure, the march of the western expedition was quite smooth. The weather was cold, with military coats, winter hats and gloves, ice and snow blocking the way, and chariots opening the way.


    Although it is a little more difficult for the army to march all the way, it can be overcome one by one. The march was much faster than expected.


    However, Hou Junji didn''t think he was too optimistic. Things didn''t go as smoothly as he expected. Soon after the army entered the Gobi desert, the snow and wine in front became thinner and thinner. In the end, it was easy to move forward without using chariots to attack the snow. What''s more, there were a large area of Gobi desert in front. The snow had melted and a large area of gravel was exposed.


    "How could this happen?" Hou Junji couldn''t believe it. He didn''t expect the snow in the Gobi desert to melt so fast.


    The generals also frowned. The snow melted water helped them a lot and solved the problem of drinking water for the soldiers. Once the snow melted, they would fall into the dilemma of water shortage, which is a big taboo in the Gobi desert.


    "Mohou knows what''s going on? Why can''t there be snow in the Gobi desert?" Niu JINDA whispered beside Merton.


    Although Niu JINDA''s voice was small, how could he escape the ears of the generals? In a moment, everyone looked at the Mohist family. Everyone understood that if someone could explain the reason, it must be the Mohist family.


    Merton arched his hand and replied: "What is the Gobi desert is that it is too dry. This heavy snow is like a snow disaster in the pass, but it is only a drop in the bucket for the extremely dry gobi desert. What''s more, it is rumored that in the winter of 800 miles of the western region, the front foot often disappears in less than a quarter of an hour after heavy snow falls. It is difficult to preserve so much snow here It''s the heavy snow. Second, it doesn''t go deep into the Gobi desert. In addition, the Gobi full of gravel is naturally better than the desert. Only in this way can so much snow be preserved. "


    Sure enough, as soon as Merton''s voice fell, he saw a scout coming back with a frightened face and said, "tell the general that there is no snow 50 miles ahead."


    The generals'' hearts sank, and Merton''s words were really good.


    Hou Junji''s face changed. He didn''t expect that his rather complacent plan was so full of loopholes that he was told by the Mohists one by one.


    Xin Liao''s son looked at his words and expressions. Seeing Hou Junji''s face changing, he immediately said, "since Mo Hou knew there was no snow ahead, why didn''t he tell him early, but hid and tucked in, and was indifferent to seeing that 100000 troops were in crisis."


    When Hou Junji heard the speech, he immediately had a deeper resentment against Merton, and other generals were also thoughtful. They inspected Merton and Hou Junji back and forth. Naturally, the contradiction between them had already been semi public. Now they can''t help but doubt that it is possible for Mohists to see Hou Junji''s jokes.


    However, Merton''s face changed and said, "general Xin, don''t talk nonsense. This is where, this is the vast Gobi two thousand miles away. Let alone marching now, it is marching at any time. Water shortage is always the first problem. He laimo sits and watches the army fall into crisis."


    The generals nodded. What Merton said was right. What the vast Gobi Desert lacks most is water. It doesn''t need Merton''s reminder, which is well known.


    "How can it be the same? If you tell me in advance, the general will postpone the expedition, and the army will not fall into crisis." Xin liao''er said forcefully and put the responsibility of water shortage on Merton.


    Merton sneered: "Postpone the expedition? According to Mo, general Hou''s early expedition is the most correct. However, our army has marched for 800 miles. If in the past, it must have fallen into the crisis of water shortage, and now there is less ice and snow here, but the army is not worried about water shortage. The situation is much better. Not to mention, if God favors another snow, the army''s disease of water shortage will not be cured The more. "


    The generals nodded again. It was because of the snow that they could march all the way for 800 miles without worrying about the water source. Hearing this, even Hou Junji''s face turned a lot.


    Merton was not ready to let Xin liao''er go, but stared at him and said, "we all firmly support Hou Junji''s wise decision, but general Xin denied general Hou''s early departure one by one. I don''t know what his intention is!"


    "Ah!" Xin liao''er immediately looked stunned. It was clear that he was attacking the Mexican family. He didn''t report the information. How could he become his questioning master.


    "General, wronged, that''s not what the end will mean?" Xin liao''er quickly asked Hou Junji for a crime.


    As a confidant, he knows Hou Junji''s temperament best. Once Hou Junji is dissatisfied, his end will be very miserable.


    "Well, you don''t like reading on weekdays. Now you know the importance of knowledge! Mo sacrificing wine. General Xin is a rough man. Speak straight. I hope you don''t mind." Hou Junji said a round way.


    Merton laughed and said, "they are all comrades in arms in the army. What is this misunderstanding? After winning and returning in the future, Mo can give general Xin a set of Mohist classics and help general Xin make progress."


    Hou Junji didn''t seem to recognize the irony in Merton''s words. He nodded and said, "general Xin, don''t you thank Mo for offering wine."


    Xin liao''er blushed and said, "thank you for offering the wine."


    Seeing the reversal of the situation, the generals were stunned. They couldn''t help admiring the eloquence of Mozi. In a few words, they dissolved Xin liaoer''s slander and defeated the army


    Hou Junji has been watching the dispute between the two people. When he heard Merton say that it is the best choice at the moment, even he didn''t realize that he was a little at ease. At present, he waved his hand and said, "it''s useless to say more. From now on, the garrison will try its best to collect snow water for the march of the army. I''m afraid it won''t be so easy for us to want to drink water in the future."


    "Yes!" the generals were awestruck. Before they set out for the war, they naturally knew the difficulties they would face on this trip, and naturally they had been mentally prepared.


    "From now on, scout one person and three riders to explore any water source 200 miles ahead. The officers and men of the whole army should carry drinking water as much as possible, accelerate forward at the same time, and be sure to pass through the vast Gobi Desert as fast as possible."


    This time, Hou Junji''s superb military accomplishment was reflected incisively and vividly. He did not place his hope on what Merton said that God was on the next snow, but made the army prepare as well as possible.


    "Yes!" with the order of Hou Junji, the army immediately stopped moving and began to collect snow water with all its strength.


    The next day, 100000 troops were ready to go again. This time, people and horses were full, because everyone knew that if they wanted to drink enough water again, they might arrive in Gaochang.


    "March at full speed!" Hou Junji gave an order, and 100000 troops immediately moved forward and marched in the vast Gobi desert at the fastest speed.

 Chapter 1075

    "Come on!"


    "Full speed forward!"


    Facing the cold northwest wind, the western expedition army marched silently in the vast Gobi desert and directly entered the earthy yellow Gobi desert from a piece of snow-white snow. Although it was like two Heaven and earth, the biting cold reminded everyone that it was indeed a steep early spring. Even with mohou hats and military coats, the soldiers of the whole army still felt the biting cold of the wind blowing into their clothes.


    But this cold is not without benefits. Under the long journey of the soldiers, they won''t sweat at all. Instead, they avoid the loss of water and save a little precious water.


    "The whole army will rest for half an hour and drink water to replenish their strength!" with a drink, the whole army stopped slowly. This time Hou Junji was not stingy, but directly distributed canned meat to the soldiers of the whole army. However, the delicious canned meat in the past also lost its beauty when it was extremely thirsty.


    Merton took a mouthful of canned meat, picked up the kettle beside him, took a sip of water, moistened his throat, and poured some into the manger of jueying shadow. He didn''t know whether there was water on the way ahead. All the army tried their best to save water.


    However, seeing the eager eyes of Ma Jue Ying on one side, Merton had to pour some for Jue Ying again, and then resolutely screwed on the lid of the kettle.


    "Lord sacrifice, general Xin is coming!" Xue Rengui came to report.


    Merton got up and saw Xin liao''er coming to the station of the fire monitor. He frowned. They had rarely met since the conflict between them.


    "Mo Hou!" Xin liao''er dismounted.


    "General sin!" Merton responded.


    "According to the order of general Hou, the front is about to enter the desert. All the troops are ready!" Xin liao''er directly passed Hou Junji''s order.


    "Obey the general''s order!" Morton said with a frozen face. He knew that the army was about to encounter the most difficult journey of the March, the desert road,


    There are no plants, birds or animals in the desert, and there is no water supply. Moreover, the sand all over the ground makes it extremely difficult to March.


    After giving the order, Xin liaoer immediately turned over and mounted his horse. When he left, he looked at the huge motorcade of the firearms supervisor with a meaningful face and said: "I''ve heard that mohou is best at speed. The four-wheel carriage was created by mohou. The four-wheel carriage in Chang''an Luoyang is the best in the world. Even the snowstorm can''t stop mohou''s journey. This time in the desert, I hope mohou can continue his miracle. Otherwise, once left alone, there will be only a dead end in this desert Jedi."


    Merton said faintly, "then don''t worry about general lausing."


    Xin liao''er sneered and urged the horse to leave.


    "He''s such a villain!" Xue Rengui said angrily.


    Merton waved and said, "it''s not worth mentioning a clown."


    Xue Rengui stopped. However, when he saw the looming yellow sand in front of him, he couldn''t help feeling a chill. It was a desert all over the sky.


    Xue Rengui has not never seen the desert. Last time, he followed Merton into the 800 mile Han sea to pursue Fu Yun. The desert is wider and larger, but last time, he made sufficient preparations, prepared enough water and rode alone.


    The cavalry''s speed was fast. Rao was so. Finally, he stabbed the horse and drank blood before he left the desert.


    This time, the firearms prison is different from the past. The whole army has only a thousand people, but there are more than 200 large carriages. You know, the bigger the carriages are, the deeper the load is, and it is even more difficult to march in the desert.


    Although other armies also have carriages, they are few in number, and most of them are loaded with military accounts, grain and grass, with sufficient manpower and horsepower. In contrast, there are too many luggage for the firearm supervisor.


    However, there is no way. Whoever makes firearms monitor weapons is gunpowder. Naturally, it is not as convenient as ordinary soldiers'' swords and guns. This is also the reason why Xin liaoer firmly believes that mojiazi will fall behind when marching in the desert.


    Once we fall behind the army, the consequences are extremely serious, especially in the absence of water, which is a fatal crisis.


    "Half an hour has come, let''s go!" with the order, the army immediately dispatched. This time, all horsepower and manpower were concentrated on the baggage side, trying to make the baggage pass through the desert smoothly.


    "Sure!" Xin liao''er watched the armies of the western expedition enter the desert one by one, but there was no firearm supervisor.


    Soon the other armies noticed the lag of the firearm prison and frowned. The desert was not as normal. It was a Jedi without water and supplies. Once the western expedition army was dragged down by the firearm prison, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    "General, the firearm supervisor didn''t keep up!" Xin liao''er reported.


    Hou Junji frowned and said firmly, "regardless of the firearm prison, March at full speed!"


    Although the firearms prison is very important to the army, the 100000 army is more important. Hou Junji naturally doesn''t care about the small matter of too much luggage in the firearms prison, let alone the deep contradiction between them.


    The army moved forward silently, and the soft sand under its feet greatly reduced the marching speed. At this moment, the marching speed of the western expedition army was reduced to the lowest. However, everyone was trying to believe, because they all knew that they could find a way out of this fast sand place as soon as possible.


    "Hoo!" Hou Junji rode on his horse and saw that although the speed of the army was very slow, he had long expected this situation. In addition, most of the military carriages used eight wheeled carriages, and they all had wide tires. Even in the desert, they would not fall into too deep. They could barely drive in the desert. Of course, the speed decreased greatly.


    "How far behind is the firearm prison now!" Hou Junji asked in a deep voice. Although he didn''t like Mozi, after all, the firearm prison is a sharp weapon to break Gaochang, and he can''t sit back and watch the firearm prison be swallowed up by this desert.


    However, Xin liao''er looked strange and said, "I inform the general that the firearms prison was 30 miles behind the army yesterday. Today, according to the report of the scout, it is less than five miles behind the army."


    Five miles behind the army is not enough to call it backward. It can be said that it is not too much to keep up with the army.


    Hou Junji raised his eyebrows and couldn''t believe looking at Xin liao''er. Yesterday, the firearms prison was 30 Li behind the army, but today it caught up with 25 Li. In addition, the firearms prison was full of heavy luggage. It''s strange that the Mo family should catch up with the army so quickly.


    "Could it be that mojiazi abandoned his baggage and the light cavalry caught up with the army!" Xin liao''er guessed. In his opinion, only this possibility can explain how mojiazi can catch up with and surpass 20 miles in the desert.


    Hou Junji suddenly turned around. Everyone knew that the baggage of the firearm prison was gunpowder. Once the gunpowder was lost, the price paid by the army to break Gaochang city would be too high.


    "Go, I''ll see!" Hou Junji waved his hand and took Xin liao''er straight to the last firearm prison of the army.


    When they arrived at the firearms prison, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them. They saw that the firearms prison had caught up with the army and followed Niu JINDA''s army. It was full, not only full, but also the dazzling more than 200 large carriages.


    They were shocked. The firearm supervisor was full and followed the army. There was only one explanation. The firearm supervisor found a way to march in the desert.

 Chapter 1076

    "See general Hou!" Merton saw Hou Junji coming and immediately went forward.


    Hou Junji''s face changed. He immediately laughed and said, "is it possible that mohou is dissatisfied with the general? How can there be such a clever plan to march in the desert and hide it."


    Merton said happily: "general Hou misunderstood. This desert March was an inspiration of Mo not long ago. Success or failure is still between us. At present, it is just the first test. How dare you disturb the general before it is successful!"


    Hou Junji couldn''t help looking forward and said, "how about the experiment of ink sacrifice now?"


    Merton proudly said, "it''s a great success. With this method, the carriage can cross the desert and never fear falling into quicksand."


    "Seriously, ink sacrifice is not going to popularize this method soon, but we are suffering from quicksand!" Niu JINDA complained in a loud voice.


    "However, the Mohist school is famous for its ink skills. We have admired it for a long time!" Xue Wanjun followed.


    The fact that the firearms warden came from behind not only alerted Hou Junji, but also other military generals came to explore. You know, almost all the troops were struggling to march in the desert. Now I heard that mojiazi could march from behind in the desert and overtake 30 miles in a day. I naturally understand that Merton must have mastered the marching method they didn''t know, Naturally, I can''t wait to ask for advice.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "this is just the old skill of mo before. You can see it at a glance."


    Under the leadership of Merton, a group of generals came to the motorcade outside the firearm prison. They saw that the car was still the same car, but the wheels made everyone frown.


    "I''ve never seen such a wheel in my life?" Niu JINDA turned twice around the wheel of the firearm supervision carriage.


    The wheels of ordinary carriages are two wheeled carriages. Later, mojiazi developed four wheeled carriages. However, for multi-functional transportation and super heavy load, the army directly added eight wheeled carriages, and each wheel is extremely wide. However, the carriages of the firearm supervisor are even more different. The wheels have been removed and become a long oval ribbon wheel, It is the track wheel of later generations.


    The carriage of the firearm supervisor has a lot of load, but the crawler wheel only sinks slightly. When walking, the crawler rotates continuously to drive the carriage forward smoothly. Naturally, the speed is slower than that of the wheels on the normal road. However, in the desert, the advantages of the crawler wheel are obvious. Walking on the sand is like flat land, which is hundreds of times stronger than the wheels that sink into the sand, Much faster.


    "This car and sleigh are really similar!" Xue Wanjun exclaimed.


    "What general Xue said is very true. This is the idea that Mo had after he marched on the snow road. Since the wide sledge can slide on the wide snow, it can also bear the load on the sand. However, the sand can not be as smooth as snow, so Mo thought of the crawler wheel. In this way, he can not only have a wide bearing surface, but also move forward, which can be solved The plight of the desert March sinking, "Merton explained.


    The generals couldn''t help sighing that mojiazi was worthy of being mojiazi. Indeed, it was a series of tricks that opened their eyes,


    No one can imagine that the two seemingly improbable schemes of snow March and Gobi Desert March are the same. Both of them use Merton''s winter hats and gloves to survive the cold.


    When marching in the snow, mojiazi used the chariot of the spring and Autumn period to attack the snow. Later, Hou Junji imitated the chariot of mojiazi to attack the snow, creating an enhanced version of the chariot to attack the snow and directly push the frozen snow away.


    Mojiazi''s chariot couldn''t break through the frozen snow, so he came up with the method of horse sledge skiing, which was even more ingenious. With this method, he solved the problem of marching in the desert.


    Hou Junji was still proud to imitate the Mexican family''s attack on the snow. Now it seems that Hou Junji just imitates his behavior, but does not imitate the God of Merton, which is quite funny.


    "The caterpillar wheel of Mo sacrifice wine is really wonderful, but this is a vast desert. There are no trees and blacksmiths. It''s too late to improve now!" Xin liao''er snorted coldly.


    Merton shook his head and said: "It''s not too late. We just need to know that the larger the contact area between the wheels and the sand in the desert, most of your wheels are eight wheeled carriages, which are enough to pass through most of the sand. If it''s soft sand, it can also be passed by spreading a wide wooden board. If the carriage is trapped in the sand, but it can also escape the sand pit by tying a wooden stick on the wheels to enhance the grip ¡£¡±


    The generals nodded one after another. They were really troubled. Merton''s method could not make them use crawler wheels, but it could also make them pass through the desert smoothly.


    "Of course, I''m afraid this is the last time I''m trapped in the desert in Datang. In the future, even if it''s 800 miles in the vast sea, with this crawler wheel, our soldiers can still be like a smooth road." Merton solemnly said.


    The generals nodded one after another.


    Hou Junji took a complicated look at mojiazi and said, "since the firearms supervisor has kept up, the whole army continues to set out and strive to cross the desert as fast as possible."


    "Yes!" the generals answered in unison.


    Immediately, the western expedition army continued to set off, and everyone went all out to March and race against time.


    Ten days later, the army finally crossed the sand. Everyone was relieved. As long as they crossed the sand, their marching speed would be greatly accelerated.


    "Why is there only a little water here?" when 100000 troops arrived at the nearest supply point, Hou Junji was furious when he saw the water source with only a little ice.


    The two thousand mile Gobi Desert does not have any water at all. With the efforts of the merchants of the Silk Road, there will also be sporadic water sources in the two thousand mile Gobi desert. Hou Junji had already collected enough information about the water sources of the Gobi desert before the March.


    However, although there is water in the Gobi desert, it is also extremely limited. It can alleviate the current situation of water shortage in the army as much as possible. A little spring water can indeed meet the needs of business travel. However, it is impossible to meet the water demand of 100000 troops.


    "Maybe it''s too cold in winter and the spring water is frozen, blocking the spring." Xue Wanjun looked at the water source carefully and said with a gloomy face. This is a water replenishment point that the army attaches most importance to. If it can''t replenish enough water here, the army may fall into crisis.


    Hou Junji said reluctantly, "try your best to collect spring water, even ice, and then continue to March."


    Now they have no way back, they can only go their own way and march with all their strength. In history, there is not no example of a large army marching westward through the vast Gobi, so Hou Junji can lead the army through the Gobi desert.


    "Yes!" the generals answered.


    Fortunately, there is still some ice water in this spring. In addition, the army has collected enough snow water. The amount of drinking water of soldiers along the road is strictly controlled, so as not to fall into a dead end.


    Rao is so. The army has passed several water replenishment points in a row, but it is still not optimistic. The spring here either has too little water source because of ice, or it is extremely limited and not enough at all.


    With the continuous progress of the army, the stored water is less and less. Even if the whole army has tried its best to control the water, it will soon reach the end of the mountain and water.


    Hou Junji couldn''t help but look embarrassed. He didn''t expect that the army fell into such a dangerous situation in the early spring when he thought his plan would succeed.

 Chapter 1077

    "How many miles can we get out of the desert!" Hou Junji smacked his mouth and licked his dry lips with spittle. However, it was just futile and would only make him feel more thirsty.


    "Back to general, our army has gone 1300 li of the Gobi desert, leaving only 700 li of the Gobi desert." Xin liaoer reported.


    Hou Junji said bitterly, "only seven hundred miles left? But it''s not easy to go!"


    If at ordinary times, Hou Junji never paid attention to the seven hundred mile road. However, the seven hundred mile road at the moment is the biggest difficulty he has to overcome in his life.


    "General, don''t blame yourself. It''s well known that the desert is short of water. This disaster will happen whenever you march." Xin liaoer dared not lead the disaster to the Mohist son this time and gently advised him.


    Hou Junji looked anxiously at the hungry army and frowned: "the general is worried that if we go on like this, we have not reached Gaochang, and most of the soldiers of the whole army have been damaged."


    The water left by the merchants along the silk road alone is the limit to support 30000 troops, while Hou Junji led a full 100000. Coupled with a large number of horses and less water under the flat, the whole army is in hunger and thirst. If this continues, a large number of soldiers will be damaged due to lack of water.


    With a pop,


    A soldier was so hungry and thirsty that he was so weak that he could no longer walk and fell directly to the ground.


    Seeing someone faint, the whole army immediately stopped and began to make a commotion.


    "What''s going on?" Hou Junji shouted.


    Xin liao''er hurriedly went to investigate the situation and quickly replied, "tell the general that there are soldiers falling behind."


    "Where''s the military doctor? Let the military doctor go for treatment!" Hou Junji roared.


    Xin liao''er suddenly became silent. Everyone knew that the soldier was caused by lack of water. I''m afraid it was in vain for Sun Simiao to come in person.


    "If the order goes on, the troops will continue to move forward and cannot stop!" Hou Junji said coldly. This is not his ruthlessness, but every time he delays in the desert, the situation of the army will be dangerous.


    After Hou Junji ordered, he rushed to the direction of the fallen soldiers.


    "General! Please forgive me that my subordinates can''t follow the general on the western expedition." the soldier saw Hou Junji coming and said weakly.


    Although Hou Junji was arrogant, he treated soldiers favorably and won the hearts of soldiers. This is also the reason why he won the support of soldiers and won wars many times.


    Hou Junji said softly, "don''t talk much. This general will certainly lead you out of the Gobi."


    Hou Junji picked up the kettle in his hand and handed it to the soldier''s mouth. However, he found that even the kettle he brought was empty. He could only pour out a few drops of water, which was not enough to moisten his lips.


    "Whoever still has water, bring it quickly. If not, go to other armies to borrow it." Hou Junji roared.


    All the soldiers are silent. The army has gone deep into the desert and has been hungry and thirsty for several days. There is no water. This soldier is only the first to fall. I''m afraid more soldiers will fall down and bury their bones in the yellow sand in the future.


    WOW!


    Suddenly a kettle was handed to Hou Junji. A pleasant sound of water sounded like the sound of nature in Hou Junji''s ears.


    "There''s water!" Hou Junji grabbed the kettle and handed the water to the soldier''s mouth. The soldier greedily swallowed a few mouthfuls. Then he reluctantly moved his mouth away, because everyone knows how precious water is at this time.


    Hou Junji carefully screwed up the kettle and handed it to the bearer. He got up and asked with a hopeful face, "is there still water in the firearm prison?"


    He doesn''t need to look at people, but he also knows that this person is the Mohist family, because most of the other officers and men use water bags made of cow leather, while the rich firearm supervisor uses a special tin kettle made by the Mohist village. Now, under the condition of extreme water shortage in the whole army, the Mohist family''s kettle has water, which is enough to make him suspicious.


    Merton took the kettle and nodded: "the firearm prison carries flammable gunpowder. Fire prevention has always been a top priority for the firearm prison, so wherever the firearm prison goes, it must be equipped with a water dragon car."


    "A cart of water!" Hou Junji immediately breathed and felt a surprise falling from the sky. He thought that mojiazi had just put a few pots of water, but he didn''t expect that there was still a cart of water. That was great good news.


    But soon Hou Junji''s joy dissipated. Looking at the kettle in Merton''s hand, he said, "how much water is left now?"


    In his opinion, the reason why Merton still has water in his kettle must be the use of this car of water.


    Merton said unhappily, "general, what does this mean? At any time, the safety of gunpowder is the first. Even if the firearms officers and soldiers are thirsty, they will not use this car of water."


    Hou Junji''s eyes lit up again: "is the car still full of water?"


    Merton solemnly nodded and said, "a drop of water is not used by the firearm officers and men."


    Hou Junji looked at the ink family''s similarly dry and cracked lips, immediately believed Merton''s words, thought and said: "the general naturally knows that gunpowder is very important, but the ink sacrifice wine also saw the situation of the army. I don''t know if I can help it."


    Merton said without hesitation: "this is nature. No matter how important gunpowder is, it is not as important as the lives of soldiers. The significance of gunpowder is to reduce the sacrifice of soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, as is the waterwheel used by the firearm supervisor to extinguish the fire."


    "Well, Mo sacrificial wine really knows the great righteousness, and Hou admires it." Hou Junji looked at Merton deeply and said.


    Merton turned and shouted, "Xue Rengui, immediately order the firearms supervisor that all vehicles should be separated by at least 30 steps, and then pull the water dragon car."


    "Yes! Offering wine!" Xue Rengui answered. Soon, a water dragon cart was pulled to Hou Junji.


    "There is water!"


    The news that mojiazi used water to treat the soldiers came quickly in the army. Suddenly, the whole army was shocked. For a moment, a group of generals rushed to the direction of the fire monitor. They were afraid that they would not be able to be divided late.


    "Sure enough, it''s full of water!" Niu JINDA turned on the top switch of the water dragon regardless of the image. He couldn''t help but rejoice when he saw the water spray about to overflow inside.


    Other generals were also overjoyed. Originally, the troops thought they were at a dead end. They didn''t expect that there was still a cart of water to use. Moreover, the carriages of the firearm supervisor were extremely atmospheric. This special water dragon cart was also much larger than the ordinary water dragon cart, with a greater water storage capacity.


    However, the joy of the generals soon disappeared. A cart full of water seemed a lot. Once it was distributed to 100000 soldiers, I''m afraid it would be good to have one mouthful, let alone horses with more water.


    "This car of water can only be used for emergency rescue, which is not enough to solve the crisis of the army. If our army can''t find a water source again, it will also be in trouble," Xue Wanjun said.


    Hou Junji said emphatically, "the Mohist ink technique is unique in the world. I don''t know if there is a secret technique to collect water in the desert! If you can solve the shortage of water in the army, Hou will certainly write down this favor."


    Facing the crisis of 100000 troops, Hou Junji finally lowered his noble head and asked the Mexican family for advice.


    In an instant, all the generals focused on Merton. Mohist Zi has made miracles all the way. If anyone is the most hopeful to break the crisis, it must be Mohist Zi.

 Chapter 1078

    However, to the disappointment of the generals, mojiazi smiled bitterly and shook his head.


    "The general thinks highly of the Mohist school. Although the Mohist skill is magical, it is because there are things that can be used to turn decay into magic, but it is impossible to turn water out of thin air. If it is summer, Mo may have a way to collect a small amount of water. Although it will not solve the difficulties, he will not let the soldiers die because of hunger and thirst. At the moment, in winter and spring, please forgive Mo''s incompetence."


    "Ah!"


    Hou Junji was suddenly disappointed. He didn''t expect that even the great Mohist school could do nothing about it. This time, the army was really dangerous. Even if he forced out of the Gobi desert, I''m afraid it would be a heavy loss.


    The eyes of the generals were dim one after another. Coupled with the unbearable hunger and thirst, a restless atmosphere filled the air.


    "However, I have some immature suggestions on how to get out of trouble in the desert. I don''t know what to say!" Merton suddenly changed his words.


    The generals immediately brightened their eyes and raised a hope in their hearts again. Immature suggestions are also suggestions! It''s better than they are confused, let alone from the mouth of Mohists. It''s much better than most people''s careful consideration.


    "Isn''t this general Hou the best negative example?" the generals were disgusted. Of course, no one said it.


    "Mo sacrificial wine has something to say. Now the army has reached a critical juncture. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, we will try it." Hou Junji said. Up to now, we can only treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor.


    "That''s right, you boy, don''t talk about it. If you have anything to say, we can get out of the desert by finding the water source as soon as possible,


    Merton nodded: "in fact, the army is trapped in the desert. There is no precedent in ancient books. I wonder if you have heard that old horses know the way."


    "Old ma knows the way?" the people were stunned. This is a famous story. Who hasn''t heard of it.


    Hou Junji said unhappily, "mohou will not treat us as white men who don''t know big characters! This is Han Feizi." In the story, it is about Duke Huan and Guan Zhong of Qi who attacked Guzhu country and won the return army, but were trapped in the desert. Finally, because the old horse knew the way, he finally got out of the desert and explored the ant cave, which found the water source. Now our army has the compass created by mohou, and did not take a detour. It is even more in the Gobi desert. There is no vitality. Where will there be an ant cave? "


    Everyone nodded. Everyone in the world knew the story. Naturally, they also knew that it had nothing to do with finding water.


    "Yes, besides, the horses we rode are the first time to the vast Gobi. We don''t even have an old horse. Why do we know the way for an old horse?" Xue Wanjun frowned.


    Hearing the general''s retort, Merton smiled and said, "indeed, our army does not have old horses, but there are old people!"


    "Old man?" the generals were stunned. All the officers and men in the army were young men. I''m afraid the oldest in the army were Hou Junji, Xue Wanjun and Niu JINDA,


    Niu JINDA said displeased, "what does Marquis Mo mean? Is he asking Niu whether he is old enough to eat?"


    In a hurry, even Niu JINDA began to write articles.


    Merton quickly explained, "what the last general said is not that old. It is indeed the first time for us to come to the vast Gobi, but a general did not take this road for the first time."


    "There is a general?" the generals frowned, looked at each other, and suddenly focused on Qixin He Li.


    "General Qipeng should be no stranger to this Gobi!" Merton looked at Qixin He Li.


    The people suddenly understood what Mohist Zi said about old ma Zhitu. Qixin He Li was the Khan of Qixin tribe. Later, he led the people to Tang. But before that, he was the Khan of grassland tribe, and Qixin tribe was adjacent to the Gobi desert. The Gobi didn''t have much secret to him.


    Qixin He Li was stunned. The Tang Dynasty has always regarded him as a qualified thug, including this western expedition to Gaochang, and he has always adhered to his duty. He is extremely brave in every battle and has made great achievements, but he didn''t expect that he would have other uses this time.


    "Yes, I visited Gaochang many times with my father and walked this road several times. However, it has been a long time. There are many changes in the desert, and I can''t guarantee whether the former water source is still there." Qixin Heli hesitated.


    "It doesn''t matter. Now we are at a dead end. We can''t give up even if there is a glimmer of hope. General Qixin can rest assured to find water." Hou Junji made a quick decision.


    "It''s OK to go to find the water source before the low rank, but the low rank needs a thousand cavalry, one person riding three times, and a large number of empty water bags are needed to hold water." Qixin Heli added that one person riding three times is the highest configuration of cavalry. Only with this speed can we find the water source and bring it back as quickly as possible.


    Hou Junji said without hesitation, "you can choose thousands of horses from Qixin tribe. Naturally, our general will match you with the fastest horse. As for the water bag, the water bag of the whole army has been empty for you."


    Qixin helidun was greatly moved. His search for water was related to the life and death of 100000 troops. Once he took the initiative to delay, he might be able to bury these 100000 troops in this yellow sand. At that time, he would be treated as a hero whether he went to Gaochang or west Turk, but Hou Junji fully trusted him and directly asked him to select cavalry from his headquarters.


    "The most important thing is that the water source of this trip is quite far away and uncertain. It is often impossible to find the water source for several days. In addition, we also need to ensure the physical strength of the war horse. At the end, we will need to carry enough water." Qixin he Li stopped his eyes on the water tanker.


    Hou Junji was immediately silent. It is very important to know that this waterwheel can be related to the lives of 100000 troops.


    "I didn''t expect that the Tang people still didn''t trust me!" Qixin Heli felt desolate in his heart, and suddenly a voice came from his ear.


    "You can take half of the water and use it on the road. The remaining half of the general should be kept to save the lives of the whole army." Hou Junji said firmly.


    Qixin He Li looked up and couldn''t believe it. He looked at Hou Junji. Half of the water of 100000 troops, and his 1000 cavalry carried half of the water. It can be said that Hou Junji gave him the greatest trust.


    Hou Junji solemnly saluted Qixin He Li and said, "I''d like to ask general Qixin for the lives of 100000 troops."


    The generals also saluted Qixin Heli one after another.


    "The end general will certainly live up to the expectations of all generals and will find the water source." Qi Xin He Li solemnly said.


    Soon, Qixin Heli summoned a thousand cavalry and three thousand war horses. Each batch of war horses was full of empty water bags,


    After a thousand cavalry replenished the water for the horses, there was not much water left in the half car. A thousand cavalry immediately galloped to the north with the rest of the water under the leadership of Qixin Heli.

 Chapter 1079

    "Now that general Qixin Heli has gone to look for water, the remaining half of the car of water......" Xue Wanjun looked forward. Now the whole army is extremely hungry, and this half of the car of water is precious.


    Hou Junji looked at the only half of the water and the eyes of the generals looking forward to it. Then he waved his hand and said, "the rest of the water will be divided equally by the garrison!"


    The generals immediately showed a surprised expression. Although this half car of water is not much and is less distributed among the armies, it is the most valuable resource, which can replenish a little physical strength for the soldiers of the whole army,


    "You can''t divide the water!" a sudden objection interrupted the surprise of the generals. They turned back and found that the Mo family who opposed the water division was the one who gave half a cart of water.


    Xue Wanjun looked unhappy, turned back and stared at Merton and said, "what''s the meaning of ink offering wine? Is it because he repented and didn''t want to offer water."


    As we all know, the reason why there is this half car of water is because of the fire prevention needs of the firearms prison. There is less and less water in his eyes. At present, there is only half a car left. Mojiazi must be reluctant to give up and want to leave water for the firearms prison.


    Merton shook his head and said, "general Xue misunderstood. If Mo didn''t want to donate the water, I''m afraid he would have quietly collected the water in the water truck in the firearms prison."


    No less than the general nodded. Mojiazi was really selfish. They also saw that the water dragon car was indeed full of water and did not take it at all. If mojiazi quietly distributed the water of the water dragon car to the firearm officers and soldiers at night, I''m afraid they wouldn''t notice it at all.


    "What''s the meaning of Mo sacrificing wine and not sharing water?" Hou Junji asked. Merton not only contributed a car of water, but also found a way to find water. Hou Junji unconsciously softened his attitude.


    Merton arched his hands to the generals and said, "I don''t know how many people suffered from water shortage during the ancient March. In addition to old horses, have you ever heard of looking for plum to quench thirst?"


    "Hope for plum to quench thirst!"


    The generals frowned and shook their heads slightly.


    Merton remembered that the idiom of looking for plum to quench thirst came from the Song Dynasty. There is no such saying yet. He did not hesitate to put it into Mozi''s secret book. Lang said:


    "Mozi''s Secret works" It is said that Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei Dynasty, also encountered the problem of water shortage on his way to the army again. The soldiers were extremely hungry and thirsty and could not move forward at all. Seeing that the army was about to fall into a desperate situation, Cao Cao pointed his whip at the soldiers and said, "there is a large plum forest ahead, which is sweet to quench his thirst." after the soldiers, their saliva flowed, their hunger and thirst decreased greatly, and the whole army accelerated forward, Finally found the water source. "


    "Hope for plum to quench thirst! Cao Cao is indeed a generation of heroes with extraordinary means." Hou Junji exclaimed.


    The other generals nodded one after another.


    "However, it''s amazing to look at plum blossoms to quench thirst, but all the officers and men of the army know that this is the vast Gobi desert. Let alone Meilin, there is no grassland. I''m afraid this method won''t work!" Hou Junji was disappointed.


    Merton Road: "We only need to learn from our predecessors'' methods. How can we repeat our old skills? Isn''t that a mockery? Now general Qixin Heli has gone to the north to fetch water and will return soon, which can inspire the soldiers more than the illusory Meilin. If general Qixin Heli is a distant Meilin, and the half cart of water around us is a thirst quenching plum. We just need to hurry Taking this water tanker to walk among the army, the soldiers will be very calm when they hear the water sound of the carriage. "


    "This is really a good law. Even if you give water to all the troops, you can''t get half of it. It''s useless at all." Niu JINDA agreed.


    Merton continued: "moreover, this water is life-saving water. Now that the first soldier falls, there will certainly be a second and third soldier fall. However, with this half car of water, every fallen soldier will get water supplement and treatment, so that the soldiers know that even if they are short of water, they will have no fear of life. They can march with all their strength and get out of the Gobi as soon as possible."


    When Merton finished, the generals immediately brightened their eyes because of hunger and thirst. The morale of the whole army has been reduced to the extreme. If the soldiers know that Qixin He Li is about to return with water, they can''t hold it. There is also a water tanker to supply water and won''t die of thirst. There is hope in the front and a water tanker to save lives later. The soldiers of the whole army must be determined.


    "In this way, it''s a way to do it according to the Mo sacrifice!" Hou Junji nodded.


    "In my opinion, it''s fair that this waterwheel should be kept by general Hou himself." Xin liao''er suddenly interrupted.


    Other generals were silent and knew Xin liaoer''s plan. Once Hou Junji took charge of the waterwheel, he would surely be able to win the hearts of the soldiers of the whole army with the credit of curing the soldiers.


    However, Hou Junji unexpectedly shook his head and said, "everyone knows that this is the waterwheel of the firearm supervisor. It is better to let Mo sacrifice wine to keep this carriage, so that the soldiers will not be suspicious."


    This is a critical period for the whole army. The most important thing is to stabilize the morale of the army, not to buy people''s hearts. Hou Junji naturally weighs it clearly.


    "However, this water cart is offered by the ink sacrifice. We naturally believe that the character of the ink sacrifice will certainly use this half cart of water where it is urgently needed." Niu JINDA agreed.


    The generals nodded one after another, leaving aside the identity of Hou Junji''s master general, mojiazi was indeed the best person to preserve this half car of water.


    "That''s the arrangement. After you return to the army, you immediately announce to the soldiers that general Qixin Heli will soon come back with the water source. The Mo sacrificial wine maker will walk from the army with the water tanker, so that the soldiers can know that there is enough water in the water tanker. Once the soldiers faint, they will take water for treatment immediately." Hou Junji ordered.


    "Yes!" the generals took orders one after another.


    "What if the war horse fell to the ground without water?" Merton hesitated.


    Hou Junji immediately clenched his teeth and said, "then stab the horse and drink blood!"


    The generals were silent. As an army, the war horse is the most important tool. If it is not the last moment, I''m afraid no one is willing to take the step of stabbing the horse and drinking blood.


    Hou Junji waved his hand, and the generals left one after another. Soon, there were bursts of cheers from the army. It was obvious that the generals had spread the news that Qixin He Li went to fetch water. The morale of the whole army was shocked, and the marching speed was indeed accelerated.


    At the same time, a water tanker passed proudly by the army. The clattering water made people look at it. This water was a drop in the bucket for 100000 troops. However, for ordinary soldiers, they only knew that with this water, they would have no worries about their lives.


    For a while, the whole army was calm and the marching speed increased greatly. Although many soldiers and men came to the ground because of lack of water along the way, the water dragon vehicles would arrive at the first time. In full view of the public, they took out a small amount of water to give to the hungry and thirsty fainted soldiers. Soon, the soldiers who got the water supplement returned to the team again.


    After word of mouth, everyone knows that there is sweet and delicious water in the waterwheel, which is not false. Even if they are extremely hungry and thirsty, the army is still marching in an orderly manner without a trace of chaos.


    The first day passed smoothly. The next day, more soldiers fainted. However, the waterwheel made great contributions again and rescued the soldiers again and again.


    Finally, on the third day, the whole army was exhausted to the extreme. However, as long as all the soldiers saw the passing waterwheel, they could not help but hope.


    However, they did not find that the waterwheel of the firearm supervisor was moving faster and faster, and the splashing sound was only caused by the bumping of the vehicle.


    Hou Junji stared anxiously at the north. All the generals knew that the waterwheel of the firearm supervisor could not last long. Although there were stabbing horses to drink blood, the army had lost hundreds of war horses in just half a day. If Qixin he could not find water again, the army would really be in a desperate situation.


    With the passage of time, more and more war horses fell to the ground, and the waterwheel of the firearm supervisor gradually could not hear the sound of water, and the army was about to fall into a desperate situation.


    Suddenly, Hou Junji felt a tremor and felt it. He raised his telescope and looked towards the north. He saw a yellow dragon running towards the army on the desolate Gobi in the north.


    "Enemy attack, meet the enemy!" the generals obviously also found the situation. The Tang army''s extremely high military quality was reflected incisively and vividly, with swords out of the scabbard and bows and crossbows on the string.


    Although the generals strongly hope that general Qixin Heli, who went to fetch water, will come back, even if he is extremely weak, his defense will still be completed.


    Gradually, the yellow dragon was getting closer and closer. The generals were relieved until they clearly saw that the visitor was Qixin He Li.


    "Yes, Qixin Heli general!" Hou Junji waved his big hand, and the troops slowly put down their defense.


    Everyone is looking forward to the north. This time, the army can get out of the Gobi Desert intact. It depends on whether general Qixin Heli can bring back water.


    Soon, a thousand soldiers and three thousand horses rushed to the army. Qi Xinhe Li, the leader, turned over and dismounted, holding a full water bag in both hands and kneeling on one knee to Hou Junji.


    "The end will be lucky to live up to his life and bring back the water."


    "OK!" Hou Junji took the water bag and felt the cold in his hand. At that moment, he waved his hand and said, "everyone, there is no way to be a man. My army has water."


    "There''s water!" suddenly the whole army cheered.


    The generals of all armies came forward one after another, unloaded the full water bags on the backs of 3000 war horses and distributed them among the armies. A group of officers and men quickly replenished water for people and horses and slightly alleviated their hunger and thirst. Only after experiencing the pain of water shortage in the Gobi can they understand the value of water source. There is still a long way to go ahead. Relying on the water in the water bag alone, We need to save some money.


    "Start at full speed, and be sure to pass through the Gobi Desert as fast as possible!" Hou Junji waved his big hand. With water supply, the Tang army immediately became lively.


    Hou Junji was relieved when he saw the resurrected army. He put down the heavy stone in his heart. This time, he set out in advance. Although the process was tortuous, the result was still very satisfactory. He successfully passed the most difficult step in the Gobi. With these water, he could quickly pass through the Gobi and reach Gaochang.


    Gaochang never expected that he would send troops so early. This time, he wanted to take Gaochang by surprise and win the fighter.


    "I will eat Gaochang, and the West Turks can''t keep it, I said." Hou Junji said firmly in his heart.

 Chapter 1080

    With the continuous advance of the western expedition army, there was a little more withered grass in the originally desolate Gobi desert. The hungry horses couldn''t wait to eat it and clean it. Moreover, with the continuous advance of the army, there were more and more withered grass and even low shrubs.


    "We finally got out of the Gobi desert." Hou Junji shouted when he saw that the front was no longer desolate.


    Hundreds of thousands of soldiers cheered one after another, and suddenly the shadow over the whole army waved away. They finally created a miracle. Hundreds of thousands of troops crossed the vast Gobi desert for two thousand miles, which has never been done in previous dynasties. Today, the Tang army has done it, and there is little loss.


    Of course, there are many reasons for this. There are not only Hou Junji''s foresight of going out early to turn snow into water, but also the emergency of storing water with a firearm to monitor the water dragon car. What''s more, Qixin He Li is familiar with the terrain and the key to sending water by one person and three horses.


    "According to the map, there is a river fifty miles ahead. The whole army accelerates. At night, we will camp by the river!" Hou Junji looked at the map in his hand and determined the location. He couldn''t help but work hard.


    "Yes, general!" a group of soldiers shouted with their chapped lips. They saw that they had been short of water for too long. Now the water from Qixin Heli was about to run out, and they urgently needed to replenish water.


    At that moment, the soldiers were no longer stingy. They drank the little water left, and poured all the rest to the horses. The whole army immediately accelerated and drove to the river.


    "Almost there!" with the army moving forward, there are more and more dead grass along the way. Although spring has begun, the northwest is bitter and cold, and the grassland here has not turned green.


    Finally, with the expectation of all the soldiers, a small glacier finally appeared in front. The weather here is very cold and the river has not thawed.


    "Ice drilling for water!" Hou Junji ordered with a wave of his big hand. A group of soldiers went down the river to drill ice for water. Many more soldiers were extremely thirsty and couldn''t wait to drink the ice water they had just hit.


    "No water!"


    Suddenly an urgent voice came and stopped the soldiers from drinking water.


    When they turned back, they found that it was mo Jiazi who spoke. The water source urgently needed by the army was in front of them, and he opposed the army to drink water to quench their thirst.


    "What does Marquis Mo mean? Why can''t you drink water? This is not the water of the firearm prison?" Xin liao''er frowned.


    Merton sneered: "if general Xin wants to die young, you can drink it!"


    Xin liao''er was stunned and looked at the kettle in his hand. Even though he was extremely hungry and thirsty, he could not drink it. Although he was reckless, he was not stupid, let alone the magical means of Mohist Zi. Everyone knew that he could see that Mohist Zi was not going well, but even he had to believe what Mohist Zi said. This is the power of Mohist Zi.


    He is now sure that if he drinks the river by force, there is a great chance of an accident.


    "What''s the matter? Is it that Gaochang imitated the Xiongnu''s epidemic in the water source?" Xue Wanjun, Niu JINDA and others came in a hurry and asked.


    In an instant, Xin liao''er was so clever that he quickly threw away the water bag in his hand. You know, putting dead cattle and sheep bodies in the water to cause plague is a common means used by all parts of the grassland. Even the champion Hou Huo Qubing died in this move, let alone a little Xin liao''er.


    "The whole army has stopped drinking water. The general has sent military medical officers to the upstream and downstream to check the water source and will return soon?" Hou Junji is not as ignorant as Xin liaoer. He has been prepared for this move in the sand table exercise and has sent someone to check it.


    Xin liao''er''s face turned red. At the beginning, he also remembered it in the military deduction, but now he was too hungry and thirsty to forget it. If he really drank the epidemic water, the consequences would be unimaginable. Although he didn''t dare to compare with Huo to get sick, he didn''t want to die young.


    Soon, the military medical officer hurried back and reported to Hou Junji: "general, it has been found out that there are no dead cattle and sheep bodies thirty miles upstream and downstream, and there is no epidemic disease in this water."


    Since the rise of doctors, a large number of military doctors have been trained for the military in recent years. Now there is no need to recruit doctors from doctors when marching and fighting. Military medical officers alone are enough. This time, the western expedition army carried a number of military medical officers.


    Hearing the report from the military medical officer, everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was great news that there was no epidemic in the water. A group of soldiers could finally replenish water at ease.


    "Isn''t it all right? It''s really a dog meddling with mice." Xin liao''er snorted coldly and muttered dissatisfied with Mo Jiazi,


    However, when he just handed the water to his mouth, suddenly a soldier who drew water fell to the ground with his stomach in his arms and cried out for pain.


    Xin Liao''s face suddenly froze and quickly put down the water bag in his hand.


    "What''s the matter? Doesn''t it mean that there is no epidemic disease in the river?" Hou Junji roared at the military medical officer. These soldiers have survived across the Gobi desert for two thousand miles. Now they have come out of the Gobi desert and found a water source. It would be too bad if they are damaged.


    "I don''t know my humble position! There are really no dead cattle and sheep in the river." the military medical officer said in fear.


    "Ah! My stomach hurts too!" suddenly another soldier who had drunk water cried out for pain. Soon, almost all the soldiers who had drunk river water cried out for pain with their stomachs in their arms.


    Xin liao''er immediately looked embarrassed. If Mohist School hadn''t stopped him, he would not have escaped.


    "Yes! Mojiazi!"


    Xin liao''er suddenly turned around. The Mo family stopped the soldiers from drinking water in advance. He must know something.


    Other generals also reacted and got up to look at Merton.


    Hou Junji turned his eyes and angrily scolded Xin liao''er: "it''s really unkind. Mo offered wine to save you, but you didn''t appreciate it."


    Xin liao''er said with a ashamed face, "Xin is ignorant and doesn''t understand the good intentions of mohou. Please don''t remember the villains, and ask mohou to rescue these soldiers."


    Merton didn''t want to see them perform. Then he waved his hand and said, "general Xin is serious. They are all colleagues in the army. How can Mo stand idly by."


    Merton came forward and touched a sore soldier''s round tummy. He frowned and said, "how much water did you drink?"


    The wounded soldier was ashamed. He was so thirsty that he couldn''t help drinking a lot of water for a moment.


    "Mo heard that people who are extremely hungry can''t help eating more when they encounter food, but the food is not absorbed. The body still feels very hungry and wants to drink water. Moreover, it''s strange that the cold river water doesn''t hurt!"


    People suddenly thought that after drinking water, the soldier still felt thirsty and kept drinking water. Even if normal people drink so much cold water, I''m afraid they will have stomachache.


    "Induce him to vomit, or his life will be worried!" Merton said to the military doctor.


    "Yes!" the Military Medical Officer immediately came forward. Soon, the full-bodied soldier vomited a lot of water, which was a little better.


    "What about you?" Merton asked another soldier with stomachache.


    "The villain only drank half a pot of water!" the soldier replied reluctantly.


    Hou Junji asked, "this soldier doesn''t drink much water. I don''t know why he still has unbearable pain?"


    Merton explained: "I don''t know if general Hou still remembers what Mo said about looking for plum to quench thirst. In fact, there is the second half of this allusion. After Cao Jun obtained the water source, the soldiers drank water wantonly, and more than half of them had abdominal pain, and hundreds of soldiers died. At that time, the doctors called this behavior water poisoning."


    "Ah! Water poisoning!" Hou Junji was shocked when he heard the speech. Although he was deeply suspicious of water poisoning, he didn''t expect to be poisoned by drinking water on weekdays. However, the scene in front of him made him have to believe what Mozi said.


    Compared with Cao Jun, when the western expedition army crossed the Gobi desert for two thousand miles, I''m afraid the soldiers were more short of water. If they drank a lot of water, they would be more poisoned.


    "There is a way to detoxify!" Hou Junji asked.


    Merton nodded and said, "however, the Mohists have experimented with this phenomenon many times. Finally, they found that water poisoning can be solved by just putting some salt in the drinking water and turning it into salt water. Of course, they can''t drink a lot of water or salt water, and it''s best to boil salt water."


    Hou Junji then waved his hand and said, "do as Marquis Mo said. All the rivers must be boiled and put a small amount of salt for the soldiers of the whole army

 Chapter 1081

    Gaochangcheng!


    Gaochang city is a famous city in the western regions, the most prosperous city in the western regions, and the most dazzling pearl on the silk road.


    Gaochang city is a necessary place for the silk road. Every year, countless Hu merchants travel thousands of miles from Gaochang to the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, a large number of Chang''an merchants go west to Yumen pass to search for gold in the western regions. The annual tax alone is enough to make Gaochang very rich.


    With this strong financial support, Gaochang city has been expanded one after another, becoming a famous strong city in the western regions, and the owner of this strong city is Ju Wentai, king of Gaochang.


    At the moment, Ju Wentai was unaware of the crisis and was entertaining distinguished guests from Western Turks in the magnificent Gaochang palace.


    In the Gaochang palace, there was a constant sound of silk and bamboo. The Hu women whirled at high speed and danced the most popular Hu Xuan dance in the western regions. The attractive dance attracted bursts of cheers from time to time, which added a bit of excitement and fragrance to the banquet.


    "General Helu! This is Chang''an famous wine bought by the king to relieve thousands of worries. This is the first famous wine in the Tang Dynasty and the first generation of old wine. Let alone in the western regions, it is also the top wine in the Tang Dynasty." the king of Gaochang raised his glass to a magnificent Turkic man, who is the famous Western Turkic general ashnahelu in the future.


    "Solve thousands of worries? And the first generation solved thousands of worries?"


    Ashnahoru''s eyes lit up and drank greedily. The best in all the land is the best Baijiu, which is the most highly developed liquor in the world. It is not only in the great market of the Mohist school, it is not only famous in Datang, but also with the western region, which is loved by all the nationalities in the northwest. The latest bottle of worry is a good horse, and the first generation of the thousand worries is scarce. This time, King Gaochang said that he had paid for it.


    "Good wine!"


    Ashnahoru drank a cup of wine and immediately felt the aroma of wine overflowing in his mouth. At the same time, a hot feeling entered his throat. In this cold winter, he was very happy and couldn''t help drinking.


    When King Gaochang saw ashnahelu''s performance, he nodded with satisfaction. Now Gaochang has offended the Tang Dynasty. Only by uniting with the West Turks can he resist the Tang Dynasty. Ashnahelu is a firm hawk among the West Turks. On weekdays, he vigorously advocates the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the restoration of the former glory of the Turks, which is the object that Gaochang tries to win over.


    After three rounds of drinking, ashnahoru was a little drunk. Before that, many people claimed that they were not drunk. However, since the emergence of jieqianchou, no one dared to say such crazy words. After a few cups of jieqianchou, the people with shallow drinking capacity have fallen down.


    "The king knows that news has come from Chang''an. The Tang people are very likely to send troops to the Tang Dynasty. From the perspective of Helu, the king should make preparations early!" ashnahelu was drunk and hazy, but he was clear in his heart.


    Ju Wentai, king of Gaochang, couldn''t help laughing and said, "general Helu was worried. The king once went to Chang''an in person. The cities along the way were very depressed, but they were far inferior to those in the Sui Dynasty."


    Ashnahelu frowned and said, "the king doesn''t know. Now the Tang Dynasty is not what it used to be. It is said that there was an ink family in the Tang Dynasty. The solution of Qianchou in our mouth came from this man. His ink skills are extraordinary. The Tang Dynasty has been helped by this man. Its national strength is booming. It doesn''t belong to the time of the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty."


    As a West Turkic general, ashnahoru pays most attention to the Tang Dynasty and knows more.


    Ju Wentai disagreed: "So what? If the Tang Dynasty sends troops to attack Gaochang today, and there are many soldiers, there will be no supply of food and grass. If the troops are less than 30000, Gaochang has 50000 strong soldiers, who will certainly be able to compete with the Tang army, not to mention the arduous journey in the Gobi desert, where the Tang army comes from a long distance, and the people and horses are tired. However, Gaochang just needs to wait for work, and he will surely be able to return to the great defeat of the Tang Dynasty, which is not enough to worry about at all , I''ll wait or drink, drink! "


    Ju Wentai was so proud that he raised his glass and drank it.


    Ashnahelu frowned and said, "don''t underestimate the Tang Dynasty. Now the Tang Dynasty is not what it used to be. Break Jieli first and then kill Fuyun. Gaochang should be cautious."


    It has to be said that the international status is fought out. Datang''s successive attacks on East Turks and Tuyuhun have already alerted the surrounding countries.


    Ju Wentai disagreed: "Gaochang and Chang''an are seven thousand miles away, and there are two thousand miles of the Gobi desert. There is no water or grass in two thousand miles. The cold wind is howling in winter, the hot wind is burning in summer, and under the long yellow sand, I don''t know how many pedestrians are buried. Ordinary hundred people''s business travel can''t pass through two thousand miles of the Gobi, let alone the huge army. Let''s say 10000 steps back, even if the Tang Dynasty sends troops across the Gobi, the troops will be stationed in high places Under the Chang City, there was no food and grass supply. On the 20th, the food must be exhausted. The Tang army had no food and grass supply. In the end, I was not allowed to dominate Gaochang. General Helu was worried. "


    Ashnahelu nodded slightly and agreed with Ju Wentai. Now he also hopes that the Tang Dynasty will send troops. Once the Tang Dynasty sends troops and crosses the two thousand mile Gobi, people and horses will be trapped. At that time, Gaochang and West Turk will send troops together, which will surely defeat the Tang army. With the barrier of the two thousand mile Gobi, the Tang army will never return. As long as he can defeat the Tang army, he will be sure However, it is not impossible to become a hero of Turks and even unify Turks.


    "However, thank you for general he Lu''s reminder. If the Tang army sends troops, please take care of him!" Ju Wentai waved his big hand and immediately a group of Hu women brought a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, of which the most eye-catching was a huge diamond, which radiated a dazzling light under the light.


    A glimmer of greed flashed in ashnahelu''s eyes. Gao Changguo was indeed rich. He tried his best to get close to Gao Chang. He coveted Gaochang''s wealth. This time, even if Gaochang defeated Datang, it would completely fall to the West Turks. At that time, Gaochang''s wealth will not be taken by the West Turks.


    After the banquet, ashnahoru went away with a large amount of wealth, while Qu Zhisheng, Prince of Gaochang, came to his father with a worried face.


    "Datang is at the height of the sun now. Why is my father so unwise that he has to offend Datang!" Qu Zhisheng frowned. Gaochang has always been neutral between Datang and Turks. In recent years, the relationship between Gaochang and Datang has become more and more rigid.


    Ju Wentai got up and stood up. Although his body shook, there was no drunkenness in his eyes. He sighed, "do you think my father is willing to offend Datang?"


    "Why did the father......" Qu Zhisheng frowned.


    Ju Wentai snorted coldly, "are you really old and fatuous to become your father, but when Gaochang is facing life and death, if you don''t take action, Gaochang will become the meat of Datang."


    "Ah!" Qu Zhisheng was shocked at the speech and couldn''t believe looking at his father.

 Chapter 1082

    Ju Wentai got up and said: "In those days, I went to Chang''an City for my father not to submit to Khan, but to silk. Sure enough, the emperors of China were the same. The Tang emperor and the Sui Yang emperor both valued their false names. My king made a small plan, and Gaochang became the only channel of the silk Road, which made Gaochang increasingly rich and powerful. From a small city-state to today''s country, there are 22 cities ¡£¡±


    Thinking of his vision in those years, Ju Wentai couldn''t help feeling proud. Just like this, gaochangcai changed from a small country in the western regions to the No. 1 power in the western regions, and gaochangcheng became the No. 1 city in the western regions.


    "Since Gaochang is prosperous because of the silk of the Tang Dynasty, why offend the Tang Dynasty?" Qu Zhisheng wondered. Since the Tang Dynasty is the gold owner of Gaochang, why does Gaochang offend its own gold owner? Isn''t it cutting off the road of wealth?


    Ju Wentai said reluctantly, "if this continues, my father naturally doesn''t want to offend the Tang Dynasty, and now Gaochang is about to lose silk. If Gaochang doesn''t act again, he will only be beaten back to his original shape and return to a small city-state in the western regions."


    "If you lose silk, in the eyes of your ministers, the silk in Gaochang will increase instead of decrease!" asked Qu Zhisheng. With his knowledge, especially in recent years, the silk circulating in Gaochang has increased significantly.


    Ju Wentai roared: "silk, what does Gaochang want silk for? You can''t eat it and don''t keep warm. Gaochang wants gold and silver. Datang defeated Tuyuhun and the silk road can go to Khotan. Yanqi was even more jealous of Gaochang. Because of the profit of silk, Gaochang secretly wrote a letter to avoid Gaochang and open another silk road. How can Gaochang allow it?"


    Qu Zhisheng suddenly realized why his father insisted on attacking Yanqi regardless of the agreements of the cities in the western regions.


    "Even if it''s just like this, being a father would bear it. However, the Tang emperor sent envoys to all countries in the western regions to establish the so-called Tang silk system, fix the price of silk, and divide the interests of the Silk Road equally among countries. Countless Tang merchants poured into the Western Regions and openly carried a large number of silk westward without paying taxes. Now the silk handled in Gaochang has soared ten times, while the price on silk has increased ten times The profits have been less than 10% of the previous profits, but now all the benefits originally belonging to Gaochang have been taken by the Tang Dynasty. You say how Gaochang should deal with itself, can''t it be slaughtered by the Tang Dynasty? "Ju Wentai roared.


    Ju Wentai thought he had been unfairly treated in the silk system of the Tang Dynasty, but he didn''t realize that these silks were originally produced in the Tang Dynasty. Without the Tang Dynasty, he couldn''t even get a share. Gaochang had monopolized the interests of the Silk Road for a long time, so he thought it was his own right. Yanqi took a share and attacked. When the master of the silk came, Gaochang was like a place to protect food Like a dog, he barks madly at his master.


    "Therefore, the father emperor ordered to intercept the Tang envoys and Tang merchants in order to re-establish the silk system." Qu Zhisheng suddenly realized.


    Ju Wentai said coldly, "yes, Gaochang wants to take back his own interests. If the Tang emperor doesn''t want to, Gaochang will intercept the envoys of various countries to the west, block the merchants of the Tang Dynasty to the East, and won''t let a silk flow to the western regions. At that time, we will see whether the Tang Dynasty will succumb."


    Qu Zhisheng then understood Gaochang''s situation and his father''s plan, and his father''s good intentions. However, he had another layer of worry in his heart.


    "But if Datang really sends troops!" Qu Zhisheng said anxiously.


    Everyone knows that Gaochang and Datang are not at the same level. Even such powerful east Turks and Tuyuhun were defeated by the iron cavalry of the Tang army, let alone Gaochang.


    Ju Wentai disagreed: "Do you think all the wealth that Gaochang obtained on the silk road was used to enjoy? Most of it was used to build Gaochang city and the other 21 cities. Even if the Tang Dynasty sent troops, Gaochang only had to defend the strong city, which would certainly make it difficult for the Tang army to move. Not to mention, the king had long promised Yugu Sheh and ashnahelu that as long as the West Turks helped Gaochang defeat the Tang Dynasty, Gaochang would join the West Turks Enjoy the benefits of the silk road. "


    Ju Wentai revealed all his abacus, and Qu Zhisheng was a little relieved.


    "Report to the king, there is a secret report that the Tang Dynasty has appointed Hou Junji as a general and sent 100000 troops to Gaochang." a Gaochang soldier hurried to report.


    "100000 troops!" Ju Wentai couldn''t help but shake his body. According to his estimation, Gaochang''s ability to resist 30000 Tang troops is already the limit. This time, the Tang Dynasty sent 100000 troops at once. I''m afraid Gaochang can''t stop it.


    "Where has Tang Jun been?" Qu Zhisheng hurriedly asked.


    "According to the herdsmen, the Tang army has crossed the Gobi for two thousand miles, reached Qikou, and soon reached Gaochang city." the soldier said bitterly.


    "You can reach Gaochang in a few days!" Ju Wentai immediately felt the sky dizzy, fell to the ground and lost consciousness.


    "Father! Father!" Qu Zhisheng shouted. Soon a doctor came to treat him. After a long time, Ju Wentai woke up slowly and turned around.


    "Come on, go and ask general Helu!" after Ju Wentai woke up, the first thing he did was to ask the West Turks for help. Now only the West Turks can resist the Tang Dynasty and save Gaochang.


    Qu Zhisheng did not move. He smiled bitterly and said, "go back to your father. Just when your father fainted, general Helu sent a letter saying that he will go back to the Turks now, gather troops and horses, and let Gaochang stick to the city. He must wait until the Turkic reinforcements arrive."


    Ju Wentai was relieved. With the promise of West Turks, he was a little confident.


    "Father, I''m afraid it will take a long time for the Turkic cavalry to arrive. At present, Gaochang''s most important thing is to resist the Tang army!" Prince Qu Zhisheng said anxiously. If Gaochang can''t resist the Tang Dynasty at all, how can we solve the problem


    "All the cities are solid walls and clear fields. There are 100000 soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty. They must not bring much food and grass. As long as the food and grass of the Tang army are exhausted, it will be the end of the Tang army!" Ju Wentai got up and ordered regardless of his weakness.


    "Yes! My father is wise! In this way, Tang Jun will surely retreat in spite of difficulties." Qu Zhisheng nodded.


    Ju Wentai shook his head and said, "you can''t completely annoy the Tang army. You immediately send envoys to the Tang army and say that Gaochang is willing to make peace with the Tang Dynasty. Gaochang is willing to accept the Tang silk system and ask the two countries to call off troops for peace."


    "But we will certainly offend the Turks?" Qu Zhisheng hesitated.


    Ju Wentai said reluctantly, "the Tang army is already at the foot of the city. We can''t take care of so much. At present, we''d better pass Gaochang first."


    "Yes, father!" Qu Zhisheng nodded.


    With Ju Wentai''s order, the whole Gaochang took action immediately. All herdsmen drove cattle and sheep into the city. There was no one in the sky.

 Chapter 1083

    "Strong walls and clear fields? It seems that Gaochang is ready!" Hou Junji looked at the empty pasture and couldn''t help humming coldly.


    The Tang army marched across seven thousand miles to Gaochang. The burden of food and grass was extremely heavy. Although there was compressed dry food, the food and grass of the Tang army could only be used for about a month at most. Eating the enemy was the most important strategy of the Tang army. Obviously, this time Ju Wentai Xue Wanjun frowned and said, "Ju Wentai has ambitions. Since he dared to provoke the Tang Dynasty, he has naturally been prepared for the move of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Unfortunately, empty ambition will only harm Gaochang! Our army''s grain is enough to support January, and Gaochang''s city can resist our army for a few days." Hou Junji sneered.


    "Report! Gaochang envoy!" suddenly a scout hurried to convey a military report to Hou Junji.


    "Envoy Gaochang?" the generals were stunned.


    Hou Junji laughed and said, "it seems Ju Wentai can''t sit still. Let''s listen to what he said."


    Soon, a seemingly unassuming Gaochang envoy, but his flashing eyes exposed his inner panic.


    "I''ve seen you Chinese generals! Gaochang and Datang have always been friendly. I don''t know why Datang launched troops to attack Gaochang without any reason. Aren''t you afraid of the cold hearts of the western countries?" the envoy of Gaochang was fierce and weak.


    Although he knew that the two armies would not kill envoys in the war, his confidence suddenly disappeared when he saw the lineup of the 100000 troops of the Tang Dynasty.


    Hou Junji stared at Gaochang envoy and sneered: "attack Gaochang for no reason? Gaochang intercepted Tang envoys of western countries for no reason, blocked the Silk Road, and launched troops to attack Yanqi for no reason, regardless of his Majesty''s order. His Majesty gave him the opportunity to make Chang''an defend himself, but he said he was ill. It can be said that Gaochang asked for the disaster of knife soldiers today, and can''t blame Tang."


    Gaochang envoy hurriedly explained: "misunderstandings, these are misunderstandings. Gaochang never meant to offend Datang. My king is really seriously ill and fainted to the ground not long ago. It''s really inappropriate to go all the way to Chang''an."


    "You don''t think it''s meaningless to say this now. Go ahead. What did Ju Wentai ask you to bring! If it''s just this nonsense, you can go back." Hou Junji waved his hand.


    Gao Chang''s envoy''s face stiffened and said, "my king said that Gao Chang is willing to make friends with Datang forever, abide by Datang''s silk system, and ask Datang to stop troops so as not to hurt his peace."


    "If Gao Chang had known so well, why should we travel so long? 100000 soldiers and soldiers suffer such crimes." Hou Junji sighed.


    With a happy face, envoy Gaochang handed a tray and opened the silk cloth. Suddenly, a plate of dazzling diamonds came into the eyes of the generals. Each one was comparable to giving it to ashnahoru.


    "Surely we won''t let the generals suffer this crime in vain. It''s my king''s little care. If the Tang Dynasty stops fighting, my king will have a generous reward and a heavy gift to Tian Khan." envoy Gaochang said respectfully.


    Hou Junji looked at Gaochang envoy holding a diamond worth ten thousand gold to show it to a group of generals. When he turned to Merton, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "it''s ridiculous. Let''s forget it. It''s ridiculous for you to use the things produced by the Mohist school to buy ink to sacrifice wine."


    The generals couldn''t help laughing when they heard the speech. Diamonds are really valuable and have been fried into sky high prices. However, diamonds are produced by Mojia village. If Mojia Zi hasn''t seen any diamonds, he won''t be moved. Gaochang made a big joke this time.


    "Mojia village, Mojia Zi!" Gao Chang''s envoy was not only shocked when he heard the speech, but obviously heard of the reputation of Mojia Zi.


    In fact, in the western regions, the reputation of Mojia Zi is at its zenith. However, the goods produced by Mojia village are valuable in the western regions. Whoever can own the goods of Mojia village represents wealth and status. At the same time, the reputation of Mojia Zi in the western regions not only represents wealth, but also represents terror. The battle of Tuyuhun. Mojia Zi anticipates that Tiangou eats the sun in advance, but also reverses Yin and Yang with gunpowder, It can be spread in the western regions. There are all kinds of legends and rumors.


    Gaochang envoy couldn''t help laughing bitterly. This time, the king miscalculated. Of course, Ju Wentai''s miscalculation was not to use diamonds to buy mojiazi, but Datang''s determination. Datang even sent mojiazi who controlled gunpowder to Gaochang. It can be imagined that Datang was bound to win this war.


    Hou Junji waved his big hand and said to the discouraged Gaochang envoy, "if you want to keep Gaochang, tell Ju Wentai to give up resistance and tie himself out of the city. Maybe there will be a way to live with the general to Chang''an and apologize to tiankhan."


    Looking at Gaochang envoy''s embarrassed retreat, Hou Junji Yu Guang swept the tray in his hand and flashed a trace of greed, but he hummed coldly in his heart: "Gaochang is really rich. Just a few diamonds want to buy Ben Jiang. Once Ben will beat Gaochang, all the treasures will not be given."


    After Gaochang''s envoy left, Hou Junji said to the generals, "now Gaochang is ready and sends someone to ask for peace. What do you think our army should do now?"


    Xue Wanjun arched his hands and said, "general, Ju Wentai is not credible. He has been wavering between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turks before. Now our army is under the city, he naturally whispers for peace. Once he waits for the reinforcements of the Western Turks, he will turn his face immediately."


    Niu JINDA echoed: "yes, not to mention that we are far away from the Tang Dynasty and lack of food and grass. Now the most important thing is to solve the problem of food and grass. Once it is delayed for a long time, I''m afraid our army will be very passive."


    Hou Junji sneered: "our army has come over thousands of miles and exhausted countless money and food. After suffering, how can we stop because Ju Wentai said a few words."


    "The general is wise!" all the generals agreed. Up to now, Datang is on the line and has to start. Only by conquering Gaochang can we do our best in this war.


    "As for the food and grass problem, Gaochang cities have been prepared for us. Ju Wentai thinks that Gaochang''s strong walls and clear fields can make Datang retreat in the face of difficulties, but he doesn''t know what the general wants. As long as he breaks through Gaochang City, Datang won''t have to run more." Hou Junji sneers, pointing to the city nearest to Tang army.


    "Tian Cheng!" the generals frowned as they looked at the map.


    Tiancheng is the Acropolis of Gaochang city and the only way to Gaochang. Tiancheng undertakes the important task of protecting Gaochang. The natural city has strong walls and is a hard bone to chew.


    "Tiancheng is not easy to fight!" Xue Wanjun frowned when he recalled the military newspaper about Tiancheng.


    Hou Junji laughed and said, "if it was in the past, it would not be easy to fight. However, with firearms in prison, how long can Tiancheng last?"


    Merton arched his hand and said, "the end will certainly go all out!"


    Hou Junji solemnly said: "it''s not going all out, but we must win Tiancheng. This war is not only related to the food and grass of our army, but also related to the follow-up actions of our army. If we can''t even win the small Tiancheng, how can we capture Gaochang city."


    The capture of Tiancheng can not only raise enough food and grass for the Tang army, but also let the Tang army have a city as a base, which can be attacked and defended.

 Chapter 1084

    "Tang Jun rejected Gaochang''s peace talks?" Ju Wentai frowned when he heard the return from the envoy.


    "Father, what should we do?" Qu Zhisheng panicked and said that 100000 Tang troops were a terrible force, which Gao Chang alone was afraid could not stop.


    Ju Wentai shook his head. He was not surprised by the result. After all, Tang Jun came all the way and couldn''t give up so easily.


    "At the moment, the Tang army will not easily hold peace talks. As long as the Tang army is blocked by our Gaochang City, then the Tang army will naturally hold peace talks!" Ju Wentai said seriously.


    "Now the Tang army is marching towards that city!" Ju Wentai asked envoy Gaochang.


    Gaochang envoy replied, "tell the king, according to the scouts, the direction of the Tang army should be Tiancheng."


    "Tian Cheng! With Tian Cheng, you can certainly stop the Tang army under the city." Ju Wentai was relieved to hear the marching direction of the Tang army.


    Tiantian city is the only way to Gaochang city. It is the first defense line of Gaochang. It has been expanded many times by him, and its defense power has been greatly increased.


    "What you saw and heard in the Tang army!" Ju Wentai said to Gaochang''s envoy regardless of his body.


    Gao Chang''s envoy came in detail. Ju Wentai''s face suddenly changed when it came to Mo Jiazi''s refusal to bribe diamonds.


    "No, the land is dangerous!"


    Ju Wentai couldn''t help shouting.


    "Don''t worry, father. The field city has strong walls, sufficient ordnance and food, and the general is loyal. In addition, if there are many herdsmen moving into the city, the army and people will certainly be able to stop the Tang army under the city!" Qu Zhisheng hurried forward to help his father and comforted him.


    Ju Wentai turned pale and said, "if it had been a few years ago, I naturally believed that the Tiancheng, which has been expanded for many years, could block the Tang army. However, the Tang emperor sent the Mohist son! I''m afraid Tiancheng could not be maintained."


    "Mojia Zi? It''s said that he can only write tricks and make some money. Why does his father pay so much attention to it." Qu Zhisheng used to like the goods produced by Mojia village and was very interested in Mojia''s ink skills. He didn''t take it for granted that various legends of Mojia Zi spread in the western regions.


    Ju Wentai''s face was gray and said, "Mohist Zi controls the most mysterious firearms prison in the Tang Dynasty. In those years, Tuyuhun''s three fort, which Tuyuhun was proud of, fell into the hands of Mohist Zi. Although Tiancheng is slightly better than Tuyuhun''s three fort, I''m afraid it won''t last long in the hands of Mohist Zi."


    "Then how to do?" Qu Zhisheng''s face changed.


    It is Gaochang''s established tactics to keep the walls clear and defend the city. Datang can get supplies and a foothold by attacking Tiancheng in a short time. Once he has a firm foothold in Gaochang, Gaochang may be really dangerous.


    "Immediately hurry up and urge general he Lu to come to the rescue before the Tang army besieged Gaochang." Ju Wentai said.


    "What about farmland city?" Qu Zhisheng said reluctantly.


    Ju Wentai said, "I''m afraid Tiancheng is over!"


    Ju Wentai''s guess is not wrong. At the moment, Tiancheng has been surrounded by 100000 troops. The population of Tiancheng is only thousands. In the past, it was a rare important town in the western region. In addition, the influx of herdsmen is only more than 10000 people.


    However, the Tang army in Tiancheng has a full 100000 people, ten times as many as him. This time, Tiancheng can be said to have met the most powerful opponent since the founding of the city.


    "General! The Tang army is so powerful that there are hundreds of thousands of people. I''m afraid Tiancheng can''t resist." in front of the East Tower of Tiancheng, a general asked Ju Wensheng, the leader of Tiancheng for advice.


    The city Lord Ju Wensheng is the royal family of Gaochang and the brother of Ju Wentai. He extended his trust to Ju Wentai and appointed him as the Lord of Tiancheng to guard Gaochang.


    Ju Wensheng looked at the Tang cavalry under the city. His face coagulated and said, "now the Tang soldiers are indeed much better than my field city. However, my field city has a strong city to defend, and there is no fear of the Tang army."


    The general frowned and said, "Sun Tzu''s art of war says:" ten encircles, five attacks, and twice fights. Now the Tang army has won ten times our Tiancheng, and Tiancheng has no chance to win. "


    According to the king''s original plan, Tiancheng only needs to hold the attack of 30000 troops. In fact, the Tang army has come as much as 100000 at once, which has far exceeded the bearing capacity of Tiancheng.


    Ju Wensheng said coldly, "if you can''t keep it, you have to keep it. The Tang army came all the way, and there is a shortage of food and grass. Our army only needs to keep the field city, and you can usher in fighters for Gaochang. In addition, the Tang army crosses the desert and can''t transport large siege machinery. The walls of our field city are thick. If the Tang army wants to attack the city, it depends on whether the strong city under my feet agrees or not."


    Ju Wensheng was confident enough about the Tiancheng at his feet. He personally supervised the construction of every fortification here. Moreover, according to his observation, the Tang army did not carry large siege weapons. He believed that the Tiancheng operated by Gaochang for several generations could certainly block the Tang army under the city.


    "I didn''t expect that there was such a strong city in the small western regions." under the field city, Hou Junji looked at the heavily guarded field city and exclaimed.


    Even from the opponent''s point of view, Hou Junji had to admit that Tiancheng was indeed extraordinary. In terms of defense, Tiancheng had exceeded the walls of ordinary counties in the Tang Dynasty and was very close to the county city, which was very rare in the western regions.


    "Unfortunately, I don''t know how many cities the general has broken, and what is the small field city?" Xin liao''er on one side complimented Hou Junji.


    Hou Junji couldn''t help smiling proudly and said, "if it were in the Tang Dynasty, a small field city would be nothing. However, our army came all the way and didn''t have large siege weapons. It had to rely on the firearms supervision of ink sacrifice wine."


    "I hope the blow that Mo sacrificial wine said is not a big talk." Xin liao''er squinted at Mo dun.


    Merton didn''t bother to talk to Xin liao''er at all, but arched at Hou Junji and said, "if the firearm supervisor wants to attack the city, he must need the help of a large army to let the gunpowder close to the city gate."


    Hou Junji waved his hand and said, "it''s easy. I don''t know which city gate Mo Jijiu wants to capture. My general asked Xin liaoer to cooperate with you."


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not any gate. It''s the four gates in the southeast and northwest of Tiancheng. Attack together."


    Hou Junji was surprised and said, "the four gates attack together."


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, since gunpowder broke through the third fort of Tuyuhun, I think the countries in the western regions must be on guard. However, even if they are on guard, they usually leave a city gate as a counter attack. As long as one of the gates in Tiancheng is not sealed, it will be broken by gunpowder. At that time, Tiancheng will fight down."


    "Just as Lord Mo said." Hou Junji took a deep look at Merton and shouted:


    "Where are Xin liao''er, Xue Wanjun and Niu JINDA?"


    "The end will come!" the three men lined up at the same time.


    "Three of you are in charge of the three gates, north, South and West. The general is personally in charge of the east gate and must protect the firearm supervisor from approaching the gate." Hou Junji shouted.


    "Obey orders!" the three men took orders and immediately led their troops to the other three gates.

 Chapter 1085

    "The Tang army is moving!" on the wall of Tiancheng, the garrison exclaimed when they saw the mobilization of people and horses among the Tang army.


    In full view of the public, the three teams marched towards the other three city gates.


    "Tell the city master that the Tang army has surrounded us all around!" the general of Tiancheng reported to Ju wenshenghui with worry.


    "The Tang army has a good plan. Relying on a large number of soldiers, it even attacks around, but it is deliberately dispersing our defensive forces." Ju Wensheng said with hatred. In his opinion, the Tang army''s attack in the west makes Tiancheng not know which side the Tang army''s main attack direction is.


    "Immediately divide troops to defend the four city gates. Don''t let Tang Jun cross the minefield." Ju Wensheng waved his big hand.


    Although he thought he had guessed Tang Jun''s plan, Ju Wensheng had no choice but to divide his troops into four groups.


    The guarding General of Tiancheng solemnly said, "don''t worry, city Lord. I have enough equipment for guarding the city. The soldiers will never succeed the Tang army."


    The garrison of Tiancheng city hurried away, and the troops of the east gate were suddenly much less. However, Ju Wensheng was a little relieved when he saw that there were enough garrison equipment on the city wall. Tiancheng had made sufficient preparations for the defense one year in advance. As long as the Tang army could not afford to attack and occupy Tiancheng, it would naturally retreat.


    However, Ju Wensheng did not know that the Tang army was not the main attack on a city gate. He did not find that among the three armies, but each had an insignificant team to follow.


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    With the sound of the drums of the Tang army, both the offensive and defensive sides were shocked, and they immediately knew that the war was about to begin.


    "Attack!"


    Hou Junji looked at the heavily guarded Tiancheng. With a wave of his long sword, the Tang army immediately pressed forward.


    "Catapult, let go!"


    As a school captain drank, huge stones were thrown high by a stone throwing machine and smashed onto the wall of Tiancheng.


    "Bang bang!"


    One stone after another fell heavily under the city wall, and only a few stones fell on the city wall. This attack of the Tang army did not hurt several people at all.


    "Hahaha! The Tang army came all the way and really became a soft footed shrimp!" the guards of Tiancheng mocked when they saw that the stone throwing machine of the Tang army was very poor.


    The captain''s face remained unchanged, turned back and said coldly, "adjust the angle and continue to throw stones."


    With the second wave of stone throwers sent, a group of stones accurately hit the wall, and for a moment, people turned upside down in the field city.


    The school captain couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction when he saw the effect of this wave of catapults. With the continuous research of Zu Mingjun''s parabola, calculating the falling point of catapults has been widely used in military catapults. Now all the catapults of Tang army can adjust the angle, which has been very accurate.


    "Avoid, avoid throwing stones!" Ju Wensheng warned loudly when he saw that the garrison had suffered heavy losses. However, the Tang army''s stone throwers were like eyes. Stone artillery shelled on the Tiancheng wall one by one, which could not lift their heads to suppress the garrison.


    Seeing that the catapult gave the Tang army the upper hand, Hou Junji waved his hand and the infantry pressed on one after another,


    "Fight back!"


    Seeing the large-scale attack of the Tang army, Ju Wensheng refused to show weakness and ordered that the defenders of Tiancheng immediately fight back. Relying on the advantages of the city wall, the arrow rain rushed at the Tang army from above the city wall.


    Hou Junji snorted coldly, "just waiting for you! Crossbow soldiers fight back!"


    Suddenly, black clouds rose from the Tang army and flew directly towards the defenders of Tiancheng. At this moment, the three-stage crossbow shooting method of the Tang Army played incisively and vividly. It was not stingy with crossbows, and waves of arrow rain attacked Tiancheng.


    For a moment, the garrison of Tiancheng was suppressed again, and the Tang army had approached Tiancheng.


    "The city Lord, the Tang army is powerful and has approached the city wall." a guard anxiously reported to Ju Wensheng, who is curled up on the battlements.


    Ju Wensheng sneered: "Tang Jun thought it would be too arrogant to conquer Tiancheng easily. Send orders and prepare Thunder Stone rolling wood and gold juice. This time, I''ll give Tang Jun a cruel!"


    Gaochang is adjacent to the Tang Dynasty, and the skills of guarding the city have been learned incisively and vividly for a long time. Leishi rolling wood doesn''t say for the moment. The golden juice boils the dung water and splashes it over the city wall. Once it is splashed on the soldiers, it will not only scald the soldiers, but also breed a large number of bacteria. Once it is recruited, it will be ten dead and no life. There are so many weapons for guarding the city, This made Ju Wensheng confident to stop the attack of the Tang army.


    "The city master is not good. The goal of the Tang army is the city gate!" a guard general suddenly exclaimed.


    Ju Wensheng quickly looked sideways and saw that among the Tang army''s attack team, Tang army suddenly accelerated and ran straight to the city gate with a huge box. This is the blasting team of the firearms supervisor.


    "Is it the new siege weapon of the Tang army, but you fell into the trap. The city gate is the key object of the city master''s control. This time, you must be gone."


    "Shoot an arrow! Don''t let him near the gate!" Ju Wensheng shouted.


    Suddenly, regardless of the suppression of the Tang army''s Crossbow soldiers, the garrison shot at the firearm supervision blasting team one after another. However, these bows and arrows were shot on the blasting team, but they were snapped away. I saw that the whole firearm supervision team was wearing heavy armor one by one. Each piece was made of Mohist refined steel. The defensive power reached the limit, and ordinary weapons could not hurt them at all.


    "Wood rolling stone gold juice." Ju Wen roared. Since bows and arrows did not work for them, he did not believe that these people could block these heavy weapons and biological and chemical weapons.


    Ju Wensheng saw that the garrison soldiers had prepared these heavy weapons for guarding the city. He couldn''t help laughing, but he didn''t see that more than ten black spots on his head were flying towards the gate tower.


    As the defenders, they will naturally take the gate tower as the key defense object. However, the gate tower is also the key attack object of the enemy.


    "Be careful, Lord!" a Gaochang soldier saw the stone cannon coming quickly and quickly overwhelmed Ju Wensheng and protected him under his body.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    A violent explosion suddenly sounded from the gate building, and bursts of heat waves came, along with the screams of Gaochang soldiers. However, this was not over. Soon, there was a loud noise from the other three gate buildings.


    "No, it''s gunpowder. The firearm supervisor is coming. Stop the team!" Ju Wensheng pushed away the soldiers protecting him and said in a hurry.


    However, when he looked up, he saw that there were few soldiers who could stand on the whole gate. At the same time, other stone throwing machines also attacked the gate tower. Tiancheng was no longer able to prevent the firearms supervision team from approaching the gate.


    "It''s over! This time, Tiancheng is over!" Ju Wensheng said disheartened.


    "Firearm monitor!" in the telescope, Hou Junji kept staring at the action direction of the firearm monitor. He saw that the firearm monitor blasting team quickly installed gunpowder on the city gate and retreated along the root of the city wall, while other Tang troops participating in the detailed attack retreated one after another according to the established tactics.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    With the four loud sounds, even if Hou Junji was far behind the army, he still couldn''t help shaking his mind.


    "The power of gunpowder is greater!" Hou Junji was shocked. The gunpowder in the firearm prison this time is more powerful than that in Tuyuhun''s last western expedition.


    "General, don''t worry. This batch of gunpowder is the greatest power that the firearm blasting team can carry. As long as the gate of Tiancheng is not blocked, it can break through the gate." Merton said confidently.


    Soon, the smoke of gunpowder dispersed. You can clearly see the broken gate of the east gate and the dead gate blocked behind the gate from the telescope.


    "The field city really blocked the gate!" Morton said with a heavy face.


    Soon, the news of the other three gates came, and all the gates were broken, but all the gates were sealed.


    "Tian Cheng is so determined!" Morton said with an embarrassed face. Tian Cheng blocked the four gates, completely destroying Tang Jun''s plan to capture Tian Cheng at one fell swoop.


    "This is what Marquis Mo said. One blow will break it!" Xin liao''er and other generals came in a hurry and asked Merton.


    Merton reluctantly said: "before the attack, Mo said that as long as one city gate was not sealed, the city could be broken, but who could have thought that the resistance heart of Tiancheng was so broken that it directly sealed all the four city gates."


    Hou Junji waved his big hand and said, "don''t say more nonsense. I''ll just say a word. Is there a way for the firearms prison to break the field city?"


    Merton nodded solemnly and said, "there''s another move, but it takes five days to succeed."


    "Don''t talk big this time." Xin liao''er sneered.


    Merton proudly said, "this time, Mo can make a military order. Let alone Tiancheng, Gaochang city is vulnerable to this move."


    "Military order!" the generals nodded slightly. Merton could guarantee that he would not talk falsely. In fact, Merton didn''t say anything just now. They saw the power of gunpowder with their own eyes. The city gate was like paper paste under the power of gunpowder. If Tiancheng hadn''t blocked the gate, they would have invaded Tiancheng now.


    "Five days is no good! If a small field city can block 100000 troops for five days, it''s not a joke. If we want to frighten Gaochang, we must break through the city as soon as possible and disintegrate Gaochang''s resistance determination." Hou Junji flatly refused.


    The generals nodded one after another. If a field city could block the Tang army for five days, whatever the reason, it would greatly increase Gaochang''s determination to resist, not to mention the West Turks. At that time, the Tang army would pay a greater price.


    "All the troops listen to the order. From now on, they will attack Tiancheng with all their strength, and the catapults will replace all the stones with gunpowder. This time, I will attack Tiancheng with one fell swoop." Hou Junji said decisively, but he saw the damage of gunpowder to the weapons guarding the city with his own eyes. The firearms supervision team attacked the east gate and was hardly attacked by the weapons guarding the city. Once the weapons guarding the city failed, Isn''t it easy for the Tang army to break Tiantian city? Why wait another five days.


    "Yes!"


    The generals took orders one after another. This time, even Merton did not hesitate to take out the gunpowder of dozens of carriages. Hou Junji was the main general. He represented the will of the western expedition army. The point of his sword was the direction of the attack of the Tang soldiers.

 Chapter 1086

    "Hahaha, the sky is really endless. I''m Gaochang!" Ju Wensheng looked up and laughed. He thought that Tiancheng was doomed this time. However, the news that Tang army had not broken through came from all the city gates, which made him overjoyed. He didn''t expect that his firm resistance and determination saved Tiancheng once.


    "The legendary gunpowder is nothing more than this?" Ju Wensheng worked hard, and his fear of the gunpowder of the Tang Dynasty was greatly reduced. Although the gunpowder had the power to destroy the sky and the earth just now, blocking the city gates can save the field city. It seems that gunpowder is not invincible.


    However, Ju Wensheng was not happy for a long time. He heard the passionate drums again, and the Tang army under Tiancheng attacked again. This time, it was not a feint, but the really cruel siege began.


    "Hold it, hold it with all your strength!" Ju Wensheng shouted when he saw the attack of the Tang army. Tiancheng blocked the door breaking attack of gunpowder, which greatly increased his confidence. In this chaotic area of the western regions, fighting is a common thing. Ju Wensheng has experienced many offensive and defensive Wars and has great experience in guarding the city. Even the famous Tang army, he is not afraid, This time he must make Tang Jun pay the price.


    However, the next scene completely broke Ju Wensheng''s fantasy. What he didn''t know was that the emergence of gunpowder had changed the mode of war.


    "Boom! Boom!" a loud explosion exploded on the wall of Tiancheng, and the fire and roar filled the whole Tiancheng. Under the bombardment of gunpowder thrown by the catapult, the Tiancheng garrison, which had just been reorganized, ran away again.


    It turned out that the catapult threw stones, and the defenders of Tiancheng could hide under the battlements. This time, the catapult threw gunpowder bags, which could explode again above the city wall. The defenders could not hide and could not organize resistance at all.


    "Rush!" Xin liao''er roared.


    As Hou Junji''s confidant, he was most valued by Hou Junji for his bravery. He took the lead every time and fought with great courage.


    After fighting for so many years, he saw such an easy siege for the first time. Seeing that the defenders were suppressed, the Tang army easily attacked the city without much resistance. Naturally, he made a decision to attack the city.


    Soon, the hook and sickle ladder had been erected on the wall of Tiantian City, and the Tang army began to rush up and attack the wall.


    Seeing that Tiancheng had reached a critical point of life and death, Tang Jun was afraid of hurting his own people by mistake. He had stopped throwing gunpowder bags. The surviving Tiancheng defenders got a chance and got up to fight back. However, they just showed up, and then Tang Jun threw a wave of grenades on the wall.


    "Boom! Boom!" a series of grenades exploded on the wall, and the counterattack force just organized by Tiancheng was defeated again.


    "How fucking happy!" Xin liao''er threw all his grenades at the wall. Seeing the continuous explosion on the wall, he couldn''t help feeling happy.


    Although he was not used to the Mexican family, he could not put down the powerful and easy-to-use grenade, which was simply an artifact of war.


    Xin liao''er jumped up on the wall of Tiancheng. He chopped down the Gaochang guard who stabbed him with his gun. He couldn''t help laughing and said, "the first climbing skill is Laozi''s again."


    The first ascent is the most important contribution of the Tang army. It is usually to reward the first siege man who boarded the enemy. Once the attacking side climbs the city wall and the defending side loses the advantage of the city wall, the siege is in hand.


    Sure enough, after Xin liaoer ascended the city, he killed all sides and won the opportunity for the subsequent Tang army to ascend the city. More and more Tang troops ascended the city wall, and the advantage of breaking the city became greater and greater. Whenever the defenders of Tiancheng organized resistance, grenades would always fly to defeat them.


    Soon, Gaochang garrison gradually collapsed and could no longer form effective resistance. The Tang army quickly occupied the city wall and quickly attacked the city.


    "The field city is already in the bag!"


    Hearing the shouts of killing in the city, Hou Junji couldn''t help smiling. The Tang army won the first battle and captured Tiancheng in only half a day. It can not only deter Gaochang, but also have a foothold for the Tang army and solve the food and grass problem of the Tang army.


    As the cries of killing in Tiancheng gradually subsided, with the cooperation of the inside and outside, the originally blocked Tiancheng gate was reopened.


    Xin liao''er ran out of the city with a happy face, bowed down in front of Hou Junji and said, "tell the general that the last general will live up to his mission and has captured the field city!"


    "OK! Xin Zhonglang will take the lead in this war!" Hou Junji laughed. Xin liaoer did well in the siege. However, Hou Junji did not mention the gunpowder skill of the firearm prison. Without the cooperation of gunpowder, Xin liaoer would not be so relaxed if he wanted to win Tiancheng.


    "Was there enough food and grass in the city?" Hou Junji asked the most critical question to the Tang army.


    Xin liao''er was not embarrassed. He just focused on attacking the city and didn''t pay attention to the problem of food and grass. Fortunately, Xue Wanjun came in a hurry and said, "tell the general that there is a lot of grain in the field city, which is enough for the army, and there are many cattle and sheep in the city. This time, our army has won a complete victory, so there is no worry."


    Tiancheng has a lot of fields. It is a famous grain producing area in Gaochang. Otherwise, the Tang army would not take it as the first target.


    "Good!" Hou Junji was overjoyed when he heard the speech. With food and grass, the Tang army has completely gained a foothold in Gaochang. Next, it''s time for Gaochang to have a headache!


    "General, please come into the city!" Xin liao''er flattered.


    Hou Junji smiled and stepped into Tiancheng. He saw that the war in Tiancheng had subsided. There were surrendered Gaochang guards and well preserved granaries everywhere, and frightened cattle and sheep fled from time to time.


    Seeing all this, the generals were relieved that there was enough food and grass for 100000 Tang troops in Tiantian city.


    "How about our casualties?" Hou Junji asked with a frown after taking full control of Tiancheng.


    Niu JINDA came in a hurry. He reported: "it''s lucky to have the help of firearms and gunpowder. Our army won a great victory, and the loss of officers and soldiers was slight. Only 200 people were killed and more than 1000 people were injured."


    Hou Junji nodded slightly and could win a heavily guarded city if two hundred people died. It is indeed called a great victory.


    "Let the military doctors try their best to treat the thousands of wounded people. We must not lose any more soldiers. They are all meritorious men of the Tang Dynasty." Hou Junji ordered.


    Niu JINDA arched his hand and said, "don''t worry, general. There are military doctors who have tried their best to diagnose and treat. Besides, there is Qinglong real medicine. I believe that more than 1000 soldiers will recover."


    With suturing and alcohol disinfection, the cure rate of the wounded can reach as much as 90%. In addition, as long as the soldiers do not die immediately or hurt their inner abdomen, almost all of them can be treated back. This western expedition, the army naturally carried enough Qinglong real medicine.


    "Where is Ju Wensheng? He resisted so tenaciously that he sealed all the four gates and hurt my soldiers. How can our general spare him!" Hou Junji roared. According to the Gaochang information collected by the Tang Dynasty, he naturally knew that Ju Wensheng was the Lord of the field city. Ju Wensheng didn''t know the arrival of the firearm prison, but he sealed the four gates in advance. It can be seen that this person has multiple resistance determination.


    "General Hui, Ju Wensheng has died in the hands of the last generals." Xin liao''er said proudly. This time, in addition to his first ascent, he also had the merit of beheading Ju Wensheng. It can be said that he made great military achievements.


    "What a bargain!" Hou Junji said.


    "The general loves his soldiers as much as his son. Those wounded people must be grateful to shed tears when they know the general''s love." Xin liao''er complimented.


    Hou Junji was greatly used and said, "send orders, kill cattle and sheep, and reward the three armies."


    Soon, cheers came from Tiancheng. The Tang army traveled seven thousand miles and finally had the stronghold of Tiancheng.

 Chapter 1087

    "Father! Tiantian city has been captured by the Tang army!" in the Gaochang palace, Prince Qu Zhisheng reported to Ju Wentai on his sickbed in fear.


    Ju Wentai, who was on his sickbed, trembled. After a long time, he said weakly, "how long did the Tang army capture Tiancheng!"


    A trace of fear flashed in Qu Zhisheng''s eyes and said, "it took only half a day for the Tang army to capture Tiancheng."


    "Half a day!" Ju Wentai was bitter. Tiantian city was an important town of Gaochang, and the city leader was Ju Wensheng, the royal family of Gaochang. There was no doubt about his determination to resist, but now it was broken by the Tang army in only half a day.


    "Scouts reported that there was a violent explosion in the direction of Tiancheng. I think Tang Jun used gunpowder." Qu Zhisheng said helplessly.


    "The power of gunpowder is so?" Ju Wentai was terrified. Tiancheng only lasted half a day in the attack of Tang army and gunpowder. Gaochang city is naturally much better than Tiancheng, and how long can it last.


    "Seal all the gates immediately, and don''t let Tang army''s gunpowder succeed!" coincidentally, Ju Wentai also thought of this way to defend gunpowder.


    "Don''t worry, father. I''ve already ordered the soldiers." Prince Qu Zhisheng nodded.


    Ju Wentai was a little relieved. He was weak and lay on his bed without any strength.


    "The father is at ease. The child has found Qinglong real medicine for his father. Gaochang still needs his father to take the seat in person before he can defeat the Tang army!" Qu Zhisheng stretched out his hand and a doctor took a Qinglong real medicine. Now the Tang army is attacking on a large scale, Gaochang can''t lack his father to take the seat.


    Qinglong genuine medicine is extremely valuable, and it is passed down in the western countries. Most serious diseases are immediate and can last for the first time!


    Ju Wentai''s eyes brightened when he saw Qinglong''s real medicine. However, he finally shook his head and refused the temptation to continue his life.


    "Father!" Qu Zhisheng wanted to persuade him again.


    "My father''s body knows that even if I take Qinglong real medicine, I''m afraid I won''t live long. Instead, I''d better use my father''s life to calm Datang''s anger and strive for a glimmer of life for my son." Ju Wentai looked at Qu Zhisheng and said softly.


    "Father can''t?" Qu Zhisheng was shocked at the speech and urged Ju Wentai to take Qinglong real medicine.


    Ju Wentai said with a tragic smile, "even if this medicine can really bring back the dead to life? If you are lucky for your father, I am afraid you will be brought back to Chang''an City by the Tang army. Xiang Jieli will generally dance for the Tang emperor and humiliate you all your life. If you are unlucky, I am afraid you will be led back by the Tang army like Fu Yun. It is a fluke that your father can die honorably on the throne."


    It''s night! After the death of Ju Wentai, the king of Gaochang, Prince Qu Zhisheng ascended the throne. The whole Gaochang city was white and plain.


    "What, Ju Wentai is dead!"


    In Tiantian City, Hou Junji looked at the Gaochang envoy and said in surprise that the main purpose of their trip was to take Ju Wentai to Chang''an to apologize to Tian Khan. Unexpectedly, Ju Wentai had died before the army reached Gaochang city.


    "You won''t be scared to death by our army!" Xin liao''er laughed and said wildly.


    Hou Junji could not help showing a trace of pride when he heard the speech. If it was spread that his army had not arrived, he would scare the other king to death. This would certainly become a good talk.


    When Gaochang envoy heard that Xin liao''er was so stigmatized as the supreme emperor, he immediately dared to be angry.


    "So now King Gaochang is Prince Qu Zhisheng." Hou Junji said.


    Gaochang envoy nodal head said, "Lord Hui Shangshu, your Highness the prince has succeeded to the throne overnight. Now the king of Gaochang is his Highness the prince."


    "Come on! What does Qu Zhisheng have to say? If it''s the previous nonsense, forget it!" Hou Junji waved his hand.


    Gao Chang''s envoy hardened his head and said, "the king said that he has always been dedicated to the Tang Dynasty. It was the former king who offended the Tang Dynasty before. Please raise your hand, Lord Shangshu. In the future, Gao Chang will follow the lead of the Tang Dynasty."


    Hearing that Gao Chang was soft, the generals couldn''t help laughing.


    Hou Junji said proudly, "it''s not impossible to let Qu Zhisheng go. As long as he can bind his hands and come to the Tang army to apologize in person, the general will ensure his safety."


    "This......" envoy Gao Chang said with a puzzled face.


    Hou Junji sneered and said, "you just need to send a message to Qu Zhisheng. Would you like him to choose for himself? My Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. I want to give Gaochang three days to mourn just after Ju Wentai''s death. If Gaochang doesn''t surrender after three days, don''t blame the general for his lack of hospitality."


    "Shangshu, please raise your hand!" Gaochang envoy repeatedly begged for mercy.


    "Come and see off!" Hou Junji waved his hand. Now Datang has a foothold in Tiancheng. Gaochang should be in urgent need.


    "Please!" Xin liao''er went forward and invited envoy Gao Chang out.


    After Gaochang envoy left, Hou Junji looked around at the generals and said, "the whole army will rest for three days. After three days, no matter whether Gaochang surrenders or not, send troops to Gaochang city immediately."


    With Hou Junji''s character, how can we care about the so-called etiquette? The Tang army crossed the Gobi for two thousand miles and marched for days to capture Tiancheng. His body has already been overdrawn. Now he has Tiancheng as the base. After three days of correction, the Tang army will certainly return to its peak. You know, in the next war, they will face Gaochang City, which is known as the first male city in the western regions.


    "Ink offering wine, this time Gaochang city depends on you!" Hou Junji looked at Merton solemnly this time.


    Merton suddenly got up and arched his hand. "The firearm supervisor will certainly live up to the general''s expectations."


    Xin liao''er on one side couldn''t help but sneer, but when he thought about the power of gunpowder, he couldn''t help swallowing the sarcasm.


    In the Gaochang palace, Qu Zhisheng, the new king of Gaochang, is anxiously pacing up and down. If he inherited the Gaochang throne at ordinary times, he is naturally full of joy. However, at the moment, the Tang army is pressing the border, and the Gaochang throne is a hot potato! But put him on the fire.


    "Return to your majesty, the envoys sent to the Tang army have returned!" a general Hui reported.


    Qu Zhisheng hurriedly greeted him and asked the envoy, "how about Tang Jun?"


    Looking at Qu Zhisheng''s expectant eyes, the envoy bowed his head and said, "Hou Junji said that as long as the king binds his hands to the Tang army to apologize, he will let Gao Chang go."


    Qu Zhisheng blushed and said, "it''s too much to deceive people. The king bound his hands to the Tang army. The Tang Dynasty wants to conquer Gaochang without a single soldier."


    "But the Tang army is powerful and with the help of gunpowder, Gaochang is really hard to resist!" an official said anxiously.


    "That''s right. I advised the first king not to offend Datang, but the first king didn''t listen. Now it''s good. There''s a disaster."


    "Even the Turks and Tuyuhun were defeated by the Tang army. Our Gaochang strength is worse than that of the two countries. This time, Gaochang is doomed."


    In an instant, the whole Gaochang palace was filled with grief.


    Qu Zhisheng''s face was hard to see. He naturally wanted to keep Gaochang, but once he angered Tang Jun, he might end up like falling in love. However, if he surrendered with his hands tied, Gaochang would be doomed to lose his life, and the throne he had just won would disappear.


    When Qu Zhisheng was in a dilemma, he suddenly gave a notice, which let him see hope.


    "Tell the king that general ashnahoru has led a Turkic army and will arrive at Khan futu city in a few days."


    Qu Zhisheng was overjoyed at the speech. The West Turkic reinforcements arrived. This time, Gaochang was saved.

 Chapter 1088

    "Turkic reinforcements are coming! That''s great!"


    In an instant, Gaochang''s civil and military officials cheered and breathed a sigh of relief. In the western regions, Gaochang''s strength is to have a strong city and be invincible, which is why it runs rampant in the western regions.


    In terms of military strength, West Turks are undoubtedly the most powerful. West Turks alone use more than 100000 people to control strings, which is a well deserved overlord in the western regions. The dispatch of 30000 troops from west Turks is not a weak force in itself, but also represents the attitude of West Turks. Now West Turks and Gaochang are united against the Tang Dynasty.


    "How many Turkic warriors did general Helu bring?" Qu Zhisheng asked hurriedly.


    "There are twenty thousand troops," the official reported.


    All officials in Gaochang could not help but look happy. 30000 troops and horses are not a small number in the western regions, especially the brave Turkic warriors, which can be said to be the power to destroy the country in the western regions.


    "Thirty thousand troops and horses!" Qu Zhisheng felt relieved. There were thirty thousand cavalry in the West Turks, and thirty thousand troops and horses in Gaochang headquarters. Coupled with the guard of Gaochang Jiancheng, this force was enough to fight 100000 Tang soldiers.


    "Your Majesty, where''s Tang Jun?" asked envoy Gaochang.


    Qu Zhisheng looked at the Gaochang envoy coldly and said, "bury your father first, and then discuss to fight the Tang army."


    "Meet the Tang army?" Gaochang envoy couldn''t help staying for a while. Then he understood what Qu Zhisheng meant. It must be to unite West Turks against Datang. At the thought of Datang''s golden iron horse, Gaochang envoy couldn''t help but be frightened. However, seeing Qu Zhisheng''s resolute face, he couldn''t help swallowing the words he wanted to persuade.


    Qu Zhisheng looked at his father''s coffin with a flash of determination in his eyes. His father would rather die on the throne than go to Chang''an city. Is he willing to lose the newly acquired throne of Gaochang? Besides, he is not really desperate. The Western Turkic reinforcements are in Khan futu City, and Gaochang is not possible to hold on.


    Due to the urgency of time, Ju Wentai, king of Gaochang, was buried in a hurry. Although Ju Wentai was simplified at the funeral, the specification was the highest among the royal families of Gaochang in previous dynasties. Almost the people of Gaochang City spontaneously came to see Ju Wentai off.


    During Ju Wentai''s reign, Gaochang made use of the advantages of the only channel of the Datang silk road to make Gaochang rich quickly, which benefited the people generally, which can be said to win the hearts of the people.


    "I heard that the Tang army forced the former king to death this time."


    "The first king had found Qinglong real medicine, but for Gaochang and to calm Datang''s anger, he refused to take medicine and wanted to die."


    "The more hateful king died for Gaochang, and Datang didn''t let Gaochang go."


    At the same time, a rumor that the Tang army forced Ju Wentai to death quietly spread among the people in Gaochang. Suddenly, all the people were filled with righteous indignation and humiliated Gaochang. It was that Ju Wentai''s death did not calm the anger of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Defeat Datang and avenge the former king!"


    This roar can be found everywhere in Gaochang city. In addition to the officers and soldiers preparing for the war, the people of the whole city actively participate in the city defense, and are bound to have the determination to fight to the death with the Tang army.


    "The king''s plan, now the people of the whole city have been mobilized." an official came to report.


    "Good!" Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but look happy. The news that Tang Jun forced Ju Wentai to die was sent out at his instigation. In order to increase gaochangcheng''s determination to resist, he now ignored his father''s reputation, and he believed that his father''s spirit in heaven would agree with him.


    "This time, a sad soldier will win, and Gaochang will surely defeat Datang." Qu Zhisheng has a pair of ambitions. Now Gaochang city is united, supported by a strong city and strong assistance, which gives him enough confidence to fight Datang.


    Three days later, the fields were in the city.


    "So, did Qu Zhisheng refuse to surrender?" it has been three days. There is no news from Qu Zhisheng. It seems that he is determined to resist.


    "Tell the general! Qu Zhisheng doesn''t know what''s good or bad, refuses the general''s kindness, and will be willing to attack Gaochang city as a forward and give Qu Zhisheng''s head to the general!" Xin liaoer proudly stepped out of the column.


    Xue Wanjun quickly stopped and said, "don''t be reckless. According to the news from the scouts, ashnahoru, the famous Western Turk general, has led 20000 Turk cavalry to come. At present, he has been stationed in Khan futu city in the north of Gaochang. Our army must guard against it!"


    The news that the Turkic cavalry came was released by Qu Zhi. The purpose was to let the Tang army retreat in the face of difficulties. Naturally, it spread to the ears of the Tang army scouts.


    "Ashnahelu?" Hou Junji frowned. West Turk is an old opponent of the Tang army. Naturally, he knows how difficult Turk cavalry is, and ashnahelu is a rare famous general of Turks.


    "What about Turks? How can I be afraid of him?" Niu JINDA said fiercely.


    "Come on, my general has been waiting for the troops and horses of West Turk." Hou Junji got up and said.


    When they used the sand table to deduce, they had expected that the Western Turks would intervene in the war between Datang and Gaochang, otherwise it would use hundreds of thousands of troops, 30000 troops would be enough to level Gaochang, and the remaining 70000 troops were to prevent the Western Turks.


    "What''s the power of Qixin?" Hou Junji shouted.


    Qixin He Li responded and said, "the end will be here!"


    Hou Junji shouted, "you can order 10000 cavalry immediately and go to Khan futu city. You don''t want to attack the city, just stare at ashnahoru!"


    After the water shortage in the Gobi desert, Qixin Heli has been fully trusted by Hou Junji. Moreover, under the original sand table deduction, the East Turkic cavalry led by Qixin Heli was used to defend the West Turkic cavalry.


    "The end will take command!" Qixin Heli arched his hand. Although the West Turk and the East Turk share the same origin, each tribe is scattered in many places and has little feelings. Besides, the Qixin tribe to which Qixin Heli belongs does not live well in Turk, otherwise it will not follow the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, Hou Junji''s task is not heavy this time. It is just to contain the West Turk, and Qixin Heli naturally completes it with all his strength.


    "Xin liao''er, the general ordered you to be the vanguard, lead 10000 cavalry and open the way for the army!" Hou Junji ordered.


    "I will obey!" Xin liao''er was overjoyed and took the order quickly.


    The forward of the big army is the easiest position to take credit. Xin liaoer fought bravely and made great achievements in the battle of Tiancheng. It''s reasonable to be shouldered by Hou Junji at the moment. When Hou Junji handed over the task of the forward to Xin liaoer, the generals had no opinion.


    After arranging everything, Hou Junji looked around at the generals and said solemnly, "leave 5000 people to guard Tiantian City, and the rest of the army set out for Gaochang city."


    Tiancheng is the back road and base camp of the Tang army. Naturally, there are enough people to guard it. Five thousand Tang troops are enough to guard Tiancheng.


    "Yes!" the generals took orders.


    Soon, after a three-day rest, the restored Tang army immediately reorganized and headed for Gaochang city.

 Chapter 1089

    "Tell the king that the Tang army has moved and is marching towards Gaochang city." in the Gaochang palace, Gaochang envoy said with fear on his face.


    Tang Jun''s actions could not hide from Gaochang''s scouts. Soon, the news of Tang Jun''s departure had reached Qu Zhisheng''s ears.


    "Datang is really bold. Gaochang and the Turks jointly sent troops, but Datang still didn''t retreat in the face of difficulties." Qu Zhisheng was furious. It was clear that the West Turks had intervened, but the Tang army didn''t have any taboo. He continued to send troops, which made all his intentions come to naught.


    Gaochang officials could not help but show their panic. Although the strength of the Tang army and Gaochang is almost the same, they are facing the Tang Dynasty, which has destroyed the country one after another. It is inevitable that they are a little nervous.


    Soon, more and more news came. The Tang army was divided into two routes. All the way, the cavalry went to Khan futu city to intercept the Western Turkic cavalry, and most of the people and horses came straight to Gaochang city.


    "Datang is really arrogant. He wants to fight against Gaochang and West Turks at the same time. He really wants to kill them all?" Qu Zhisheng said angrily.


    Gao Chang''s envoy shouted bitterly, "Your Majesty should think twice! This is Gao Chang''s last chance. If you miss it, you may be in danger!"


    Now the Tang army has not arrived at Gaochang city. If Gaochang surrenders at the moment, there may be a glimmer of vitality. If the Tang army really takes Gaochang City, Gaochang will have no chance and can only be handled by Datang.


    Qu Zhisheng was furious. He had just succeeded to the throne of Gaochang for three days and had not had time to enjoy the taste of power. He had to give up. This made Qu Zhisheng unable to accept it anyway.


    Suddenly, Qu Zhisheng''s eyes coagulated, saw the position of Tang Jun''s forward on the map, and then measured the direction of most of Tang Jun''s men and horses. He was overjoyed.


    "Hahaha, from the king''s point of view, Tang Jun is not invincible, and sometimes makes mistakes! God helps Gaochang." Qu Zhisheng laughed up to the sky.


    "King, have you ever found anything?" all officials asked one after another.


    Qu Zhisheng pointed to the position of the Tang army forward on the map and said, "it''s really a heaven given fighter. The Tang army forward was greedy for work and rushed forward. He even approached our Gaochang City alone."


    "Ah!" when Gaochang officials looked, they found that the forward of the Tang army was far away from most of the Tang army, and had broken into the scope of Gaochang city.


    "What does the king mean?" a hundred officials thought.


    Qu Zhisheng said proudly, "if the 100000 troops of the Tang Dynasty come, the king will naturally defend the city. However, the forward of the Tang army is less than 10000. If we can take the initiative to eat the forward of the Tang army, we can not only weaken the strength of the Tang army, but also raise our high morale."


    "Take the initiative to attack?" Gaochang officials were stunned and reluctant. If there was a strong city to guard, they would have enough confidence. If they went out of the city to fight with the Tang army, Gaochang officials would have no confidence.


    "Why, there are only ten thousand Tang army forwards. If Gaochang can''t even defeat this force, how can we resist the Tang Dynasty? Why don''t you and I bind our hands and go to the Tang Dynasty to be prisoners." Qu Zhi roared angrily.


    "Be a prisoner in Datang!"


    Gaochang officials were immediately silent. Once Gaochang surrendered, Qu Zhisheng would bear the brunt, but they would certainly lose their current power and wealth.


    "Well, we''ll fight the Tang Dynasty!" all the officials made up their minds. As Qu Zhisheng said, if Gaochang can''t even defeat the 10000 vanguards of the Tang Dynasty, how can we resist the 100000 Tang army.


    Soon, the dead Gaochang gate was reopened, and 20000 Gaochang troops left the city with high morale to meet the Tang army forward Xin liao''er department.


    Soon the two sides met not far from Gaochang City, and the war was imminent.


    At the same time, Tang Jun also found the abnormality of Xin liao''er. Xin liao''er, a forward, was greedy for work and rushed forward, directly out of the scope of the army''s support.


    "Xin liao''er is so bold and reckless that he is greedy for work and puts 10000 soldiers in danger." Xue Wanjun said with a worried face.


    "However, the forward troops led by Xin liaoer have been separated from the army for hundreds of miles. In case of an accident, I''m afraid we won''t have time to rescue." Niu JINDA also frowned.


    However, Hou Junji''s eyes flashed and said to Xin liaoer: "Xin liao''er, as a forward, is responsible for exploring the way for the Tang army. The distance of 100 Li is not far. Moreover, Xin liao''er''s headquarters are cavalry. If he meets an army that can''t resist the enemy, he can easily return. Moreover, our general deliberately let Xin liao''er lead 10000 cavalry first. It is precisely to lure Gaochang to send troops. Only when Qu Zhisheng sees the gap between the Tang army and Gaochang army, Gaochang will be true I''m dying. "


    The generals frowned. Xin liaoer''s 10000 troops and horses are indeed a powerful military force. However, as the first power in the western regions, Gaochang''s strength can not be underestimated. Even if the Tang army is brave, I''m afraid it will lose a lot.


    The generals were secretly anxious and ordered the army to speed up the March. At the same time, they sent scouts one after another to inquire about the news.


    Soon, the news that Gaochang sent 20000 troops came! The generals were worried.


    This time even Hou Junji couldn''t sit still. He sent Wanqi to meet him. However, before Wanqi Tang army went far, the news of Xin liaoer''s defeat of Gao Changjun came.


    "The array killed 3000 Gaochang soldiers, and Qu Zhisheng returned to Gaochang city in embarrassment!"


    Hou Junji laughed at the report of the Scout. Xin liao''er was his confidant. The forward led by Xin liao''er defeated Gao Changjun and made him look glorious.


    Other generals frowned one after another. Xin liaoer won the war by 10000 against 20000. I''m afraid he also lost a lot. However, the army won the war on the basis of victory and defeat. Xin liaoer won the war, and other problems were naturally covered up.


    "The whole army is speeding up. Our army will camp under Gaochang city tonight!" Hou Junji said proudly.


    In Gaochang City, Qu Zhisheng, who retreated to Gaochang City, looked ashamed. He was satisfied. He drove out and attacked the forward of the Tang army with twice the force. It was clear that the force and morale had the upper hand, but the result was in the hands of the Tang army and had to abandon his armor and withdraw to Gaochang city.


    All the officials were in a dead silence. They didn''t expect that Gaochang soldiers had been defeated so thoroughly. Gaochang is known as the first powerful country in the western regions. On weekdays, it just sent troops to compete with several small countries in the western regions. How can it compete with the Tang army who has experienced hundreds of wars? Under World War I, Gaochang was undoubtedly defeated. Fortunately, it was with its back to the city that Gaochang fled in embarrassment.


    "Whether the city gate has been sealed! Be careful of Tang Jun''s gunpowder." Qu Zhisheng said in fear.


    "Don''t worry, king. The gate has been sealed again." a guard hurried.


    With the protection of Gaochang City, Qu Zhisheng felt a little relieved. The strength of Gaochang garrison was a little weak. However, Gaochang city was a well deserved strong city. When Ju Wentai went to Chang''an City, he was greatly touched when he came back and imitated the city built by Chang''an city. Only then did he get the title of the first male city in the western regions.


    "What should I do? I''ve completely offended Datang this time!" envoy Gaochang said painfully. At the beginning, he urged Qu Zhisheng not to be impulsive. Now Gaochang and Datang have fought each other, and both sides have died and injured each other. This beam is finally settled.


    Qu Zhisheng also regretted that he had already known that he would defend the strong city. There was really nothing to do, so he decided to surrender or resist.


    "Now we can only count on the West Turks!" Qu Zhisheng looked north, which is the direction of Khan futu city.

 Chapter 1090

    Khan futu inside and outside the city! The two Turkic armies are confronting each other.


    One is the East Turkic cavalry led by Qixin Heli, who rushed to the bottom of Khan futu city. The other is the West Turkic cavalry led by ashnahoru, who occupied the wall of Khan futu city. When Turks were strong, the two armies should be of the same race. Now the two armies with the same origin stand on the opposite side.


    "Qixin Heli! You and I are all Turks, but you betrayed Changsheng day and the grassland and became the eagle dog of the Tang Dynasty. It''s humiliating to the ancestors of the grassland." ashnahelu scolded angrily in Khan futu city.


    Qixin He Li looked at ashnahorus coldly and said, "we are all Turks, but there are few Turkic tribes killed by general Helu. All parts of the grassland have always been the law of the jungle. Why should general Helu pretend to be benevolent and hypocritical? If there were no Tang Dynasty, Qixin would have been killed."


    The biggest threat to all parts of the grassland is not external aggression, but internal worries. Once a tribe weakens, it will attract the covet of other tribes, and its end is extremely miserable. The phenomenon of large tribes annexing small tribes can be found everywhere.


    In those years, Qixin tribe was even more in crisis, so it had no choice but to invest in Datang and get the help of Datang. Qixin tribe once again stood proudly on the grassland and continued to grow.


    "The fighting among the grassland departments is to make Turks stronger, but your position today is to stand on the side of the Tang Dynasty and make Turks the enemy. Let the Turk warriors fight with their families and shed the blood of our Turk warriors. As long as you Qixin how can you give up the secret and turn to the light, our general can set up a Khan guarantee to Yugu to further your Qixin tribal status."


    Qixin He Li couldn''t help laughing. When he was in Datang, he could clearly see the changes visible to the naked eye. It can be said that he was stronger day by day. Especially when he saw the power of gunpowder attacking Tiancheng with his own eyes and heard Mohist Zi''s bold words about the instant destruction of Gaochang City, he strengthened his determination to stand on the side of Datang.


    "Qixin Heli was born in Turks and would never aim his sword and gun at Turks. However, today is not about Datang and Turks, but about Datang and Gaochang. I''d like to give general Helu a piece of advice. Don''t interfere in the war between Datang and Gaochang. Gaochang is hopeless and don''t let the blood of Turkic warriors flow in vain." Qixin Heli shouted.


    "Gaochang is hopeless!" ashnahelu was shocked. He heard a strong confidence from Qixin Heli''s mouth.


    "As one of the same Turks, how to make a decision depends on general Helu in the next sentence of advice." Qi Xin He Li took a deep look at ashnahelu and waved his hand. The Tang army retreated fifty miles and camped to monitor the Western Turkic army in Khan futu city nearby.


    Looking at the Tang army led by Qixin Heli retreating slowly, ashnahoru''s eyes were cold. He had led him into Khan''s futu city. He himself had indicated the position of West Turks. How can he say that he would not intervene if he did not intervene? Moreover, if he was afraid of the enemy, he could not make a difference in the desire Valley Khan.


    "General, Qixin Heli has betrayed the Turks. Shall we take the opportunity to clean up the traitor?" a Turk general came to ashnahoru and said ruthlessly.


    Ashnahoru shook his head and said: "Qixin was just a small tribe in those days. Naturally, he wouldn''t be in the eyes of our general. However, he relied on the Tang Dynasty and got Tang''s armor and weapons. His strength can''t be underestimated. I''m afraid our army won''t benefit from attacking. Moreover, if we annoyed the Tang Dynasty, Tang turned around and attacked us in anger, even Tiancheng can''t stop the Tang army, and Khan futu city can''t stop the Tang army More evil than good. "


    He saw with his own eyes that Qixin Heli''s cavalry were all dressed in armor, which was only the treatment of Khan''s personal guards in Yugu. Most of the troops he brought were leather armor. If there was a war, I''m afraid he couldn''t take advantage at all. Just as Qixin Heli was unwilling to take the initiative to attack Khan futu City, ashnahelu naturally didn''t want to provoke five times more than his own Tang Dynasty Army.


    The Turkic generals could not help nodding silently. There were only 20000 soldiers in the West Turks, but there were as many as 100000 Tang troops. If they annoyed the Tang army, they might not be able to stop the Tang army.


    "Shall we sit here and watch Gaochang fall?" the Turk general frowned.


    ASHNA heluning said emphatically: "the key to this war is not Gaochang, nor you and me, but the determination of Datang and Khan. Now Datang has played 100000 troops and is bound to destroy Gaochang. Now it depends on whether Khan is willing to play 100000 Turkic warriors to keep Gaochang."


    "Hundreds of thousands of Turkic warriors? It''s spring, the season of cattle and sheep breeding. How can there be so many people?" the Turkic general frowned.


    Cattle and sheep are bred in spring on the grassland. Only when cattle and sheep are fertilized in time can they be born in summer and thrive in autumn, can they be able to spend the cold winter. Once the cattle and sheep breeding season is missed, the number of newborn babies this year will be greatly reduced, and the herdsmen will suffer heavy losses and even face famine.


    Ashnahoru said, "this may be the reason why the Tang army sent troops in advance. It just hit the weakness of Turks. The general has sent a letter to Khan overnight to ask for reinforcements. Whether to save Gaochang or not depends on how Khan decides."


    Now with Qixin He Li monitoring him, he also has a good reason not to send troops. If he wants to defeat 100000 Tang troops, I''m afraid only western Turks can be sure.


    "I hope Gaochang city can persist until the arrival of the Khan army." ashnahelu looked at Gaochang city from a distance and said helplessly.


    Under Gaochang city!


    The Tang army was surrounded by banners and banners. Everyone knew that the most important war against Gaochang was coming.


    At the moment, Xin liao''er, who had just won the war, knelt in the Chinese Army''s big tent with a ashamed face. Hou Junji, who was above the throne, saw the battle damage of the forward and said angrily to the sky: "if you hadn''t been greedy for work and rash progress, how could the soldiers have died a thousand and injured two thousand, and the army didn''t have such heavy casualties when attacking Tiancheng!"


    This time, when the army went to Gaochang City, it was mainly to persuade them to surrender, so it would be better if they didn''t have to kill or hurt the soldiers. However, Xin liaoer was greedy for work and rushed forward, so that Gaochang caught the fighter and bit the army forward, which made the army less than the rescue. Otherwise, the Tang army would not have such heavy casualties or let Gaochang return to the city so easily.


    "The last general is ashamed!" Xin liao''er bowed his head. Although he won the battle, he lost 30% of his soldiers, which is indisputable.


    "If you win this battle, you will kill 3000 Gaochang soldiers. Their merits and demerits are equal. If you dare to make mistakes again, you will be killed." Hou Junji was angry on the surface, but in fact, he held it high and said gently.


    The generals frowned. Naturally, they knew that Hou Junji was defending Xin liao''er, and they were dissatisfied. However, it was a critical moment, and they didn''t want to get involved.


    "Thank you for your kindness!" Xin liao''er quickly thanked him. He couldn''t help feeling resentment when he escaped the disaster. Naturally, he didn''t dare to resent Hou Junji, but concentrated his resentment on Qu Zhisheng. According to his expectation, when the Tang army attacked, Qu Zhisheng would be scared to death to defend the city gate, but who would have thought that Qu Zhisheng was also brave and took the initiative to attack, It also caused many casualties to Tang Jun. although he tried his best to beat back Gao Changjun, he also lost a lot and made a disheartened face.


    After Hou Junji handled the matter of Xin liao''er, he waved his hand and said, "now our army has surrounded Gaochang city. Let''s discuss how to attack Gaochang city."

 Chapter 1091

    "Attack Gaochang city?"


    As soon as Hou Junji''s words fell, everyone immediately focused on Merton, because Merton once said that Gaochang city would be broken at one blow. As long as Gaochang city could be broken, the rest would be easy to do. Only Gaochang''s little force was not enough to resist the footsteps of Tang army.


    Hou Junji turned to Merton and said, "how long does the firearm supervisor need to prepare to break the Gaochang city wall.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "Gaochang city was built in imitation of Chang''an City, and Qu Zhisheng dug a very deep trench outside the city wall in order to resist our army. If the firearm supervisor needs to get close to the Gaochang city wall, he needs a large army to fill the trench outside Gaochang City. It will take at least 15 days to finish the work."


    Tianchang City has a flat terrain and weak defense, so it only takes five days. Gaochang city is much better than Tiancheng city. In addition, Qu Zhisheng has also dug a large trench outside Gaochang City, which has increased a lot of quantities. The 15th is the limit of firearms supervision.


    "It''s simple. Anyway, every time the army attacks the city, it will fill the trenches. If our army does nothing, it may also cause Gaochang''s suspicion." Hou Junji waved his hand.


    Xue Wanjun frowned and said, "according to the general at the end, although Gaochang city is high and thick, there are firearms in prison, but it''s only a matter of time. We don''t need to rush to capture it. The real threat to the Tang army is the West Turks. Our army only needs to besiege Gaochang and turn around to attack the Khan futu city. Once the West Turk reinforcements are destroyed, the desperate Gaochang will surely open the city and surrender."


    "Yes, if the Western Turkic army is on the grassland, we still have a little concern. Now ashnahelu is stationed in Khan futu city. In the end, it will be just the next field city. We can capture it in half a day, otherwise it will be too late once we drag the Western Turkic army to help." Xin liao''er said proudly.


    He strongly supported the Tang army to attack the Khan futu city first. In addition to trying to make more contributions, once the West Turkic forces were destroyed, Gaochang city would surely surrender, and there would be no contribution from the Mohist school.


    But Niu JINDA shook his head and said, "no, Gaochang city can be conquered as long as the firearms supervisor is ready. The contradiction between Datang and West Turks is in Gaochang. Once Gaochang is conquered, the West Turks will not easily offend Datang without any reason to interfere. Our army can easily complete the established strategy. Why add new branches?"


    Niu JINDA''s suggestion was immediately supported by many generals. You should know that Tang Jun is strong, but there are still certain risks in the face of Gaochang and Western Turks.


    "No, the West Turks have sent ashnahoru to the Khan futu city and are already provoking the Tang Dynasty. For countries that dare to provoke the Tang Dynasty, if the Tang Dynasty does not fight back, it will not be seen as a joke." Xue Wanjun argued.


    In an instant, there were differences among the generals. One side advocated attacking Gaochang first to scare off the West Turks and safely obtain military achievements, while the other side advocated encircling and supporting, and using Gaochang city to lure the West Turks to send troops, so as to win Gaochang, defeat the West Turks and win double military achievements.


    Hou Junji could not help but frown and ponder. What both sides said was reasonable. On the one hand, the strategy was conservative, but it could enable the Tang army to quickly capture Gaochang. On the other hand, the strategy was radical. Although there were some risks in defeating Gaochang and Datang at the same time, it could enable the Tang army to make great achievements.


    Hou Junji himself is a bold man. In the original history, Hou Junji chose the latter. This time, Hou Junji''s ambition expanded again. If he can defeat Western Turks and Gaochang at the same time, his credit will be directly comparable to Li Jing.


    Just when Hou Junji couldn''t help shaking the latter, a voice suddenly said, "why don''t we first surrender Gaochang city and then attack Western Turks. In this way, our army can not only complete the established strategy, but also sit back and fight with Western Turks."


    The generals turned their heads one after another and found that it was the Mo family.


    "Recruit Gaochang first. How can this be possible? Qu Zhisheng has always regarded the West Turks as a life-saving straw and wants to capture Gaochang city. In addition to a strong attack, he is to destroy the West Turk reinforcements and let Qu Zhisheng completely give up his heart before he can go out of the city and surrender. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, Qu Zhisheng will not surrender." Xin liaoer sneered.


    Merton nodded and said, "the reason why Qu Zhisheng didn''t surrender was that he waited for the arrival of Western Turkic reinforcements and relied on Gaochang city. However, we just need to make Qu Zhisheng realize that Gaochang city is not safe. Tang army is fully capable of attacking Gaochang city before Western Turkic rescue, and Qu Zhisheng will naturally surrender."


    "What''s the clever plan of ink offering wine?" Hou Junji frowned.


    Merton couldn''t help revealing a trace of Hao Ran and said, "I don''t know if you remember hot-air balloons."


    "Hot air balloon!" the generals were stunned. Naturally, they didn''t forget the Chang''an hot air balloon, which once made a lot of noise. Not to mention that later, the hot air balloon did a great sensation in the Tang Dynasty, that is, it flew directly into the clouds to prove that the clouds were made of water vapor.


    "Could it be that Mo sacrificial wine brought the hot-air balloon?" Xue Wanjun said inconceivably. In the eyes of the generals, the hot-air balloon is just a plaything. Where can it be associated with war? The Mohist school is too careless!


    When Merton saw the faces of the people, he didn''t know what they were thinking. Then he explained, "you don''t know. Let''s see, hot-air balloons are also useful for war. First, hot-air balloons can carry people into the air. Scouts stand in hot-air balloons, and then borrow telescopes to find enemies tens of miles away."


    The generals can''t help but brighten their eyes. If they can find the enemy in advance and anticipate the enemy first, it''s too important for the army. In this way, hot-air balloons are also desirable.


    "Let''s take Gaochang city as an example. Our army only needs to raise the hot-air balloon at the gate of the city, pull the chassis with a heavy object, and let the hot-air balloon rise ten feet. In this way, we can have a panoramic view of every move of Gaochang soldiers. In this way, our army can know the reality of Gaochang garrison before the enemy. Isn''t Gaochang city under control?" Merton said.


    This time, the generals couldn''t help breathing. Everyone realized how much opportunity Tang Jun had once a pair of eyes monitored Gao Changcheng''s every move.


    "What''s more, hot-air balloons move with the wind. As long as they follow the wind direction, hot-air balloons can cross over Gaochang City, but Gaochang city can''t do anything about hot-air balloons. According to Mo''s observation, Gaochang cities also use wooden houses. As long as there is enough gunpowder and grease, hot-air balloons can easily ignite fires in Gaochang city and even directly attack Gaochang palace. As long as Qu Zhisheng understands, Gao Chang Cheng can''t hold it at all. He will surrender naturally, "Morton sneered.


    "What if Qu Zhisheng refuses to surrender?" Hou Junji frowned.


    "Don''t blame the Tang army for being ruthless. After the 15th, the firearms supervisor will blast the Gaochang city wall, and the army will invade the Gaochang city and capture the Gaochang King Qu Zhisheng." Merton said in a voice.


    Hou Junji closed his eyes and said in his heart, "according to the policy of offering wine to Mo, first force Qu Zhisheng to surrender. Once Gaochang surrendered, attack Khan futu city immediately."


    Hou Junji wanted to kill Gaochang and defeat the West Turks, but he finally chose the safest one and ate Gaochang first.

 Chapter 1092

    On the Gaochang city wall, all Gaochang defenders are staring at the Tang army under the city. After the battle between Gaochang and the Tang army forward, all Gaochang soldiers realize that they really can''t beat the Tang Dynasty in actual combat. Now the only thing that can protect them is the Gaochang city wall under their feet. Only hiding behind the city wall can bring them a sense of security.


    Suddenly, a huge hot-air balloon quietly rose from under the city wall, and it rose higher and higher, and soon surpassed Gaochang city. You know, the whole Gaochang city is about five feet high. This thing is even comparable to Gaochang City, and Gaochang city still has a rising trend.


    "Come on! Shoot it down!" although the guard general didn''t know what it was, he could clearly see that there was a hanging basket under the circular monster. There was even a Tang army under the hanging basket. He immediately realized that it must be a new weapon of the Tang army and ordered to shoot immediately.


    "Whoosh! Whoosh!" the defense weapons arranged by Gaochang at the cost of a lot of money played their power, and crossbows and arrows flew disorderly for a moment.


    However, the hot-air balloon is quite far away from Gaochang city. Outside the attack range of Gaochang City, and it is getting higher and higher, even the most powerful crossbow in Gaochang city can''t hurt it at all.


    Finally, the hot-air balloon gets higher and higher. Finally, it directly reaches more than ten feet, more than twice that of Gaochang city. Even standing in Gaochang City, you can clearly see the hot-air balloon taking off.


    Seeing an unknown object floating outside Gaochang City, the whole Gaochang city was in panic, all kinds of speculation and rumors were everywhere.


    "It''s shaped like a ball and can fly into the air. I''m afraid it''s the hot-air balloon widely spread in Chang''an city. Send an order to the people of Gaochang so that they don''t have to panic!" the change of Tang Jun naturally spread to Qu Zhisheng''s ears for the first time. When he came as fast as he could, he looked at the hot-air balloon rising outside the city and waved an order.


    Hot air balloons are making a lot of noise in Chang''an City, which is related to mojiazi. Naturally, Gaochang has also received relevant information.


    "Why did the Tang army raise hot air balloons outside the city? What''s the meaning?" a Gaochang official frowned.


    "In the end, the Tang army must want to monitor our army," a general guessed.


    Qu Zhisheng suddenly changed his face and exclaimed, "no, I''m in danger of guarding the city in Gaochang."


    Sure enough, as soon as Qu Zhisheng''s voice fell, a series of roars came. Tang Jun attacked Gaochang city tower with stone catapults. These stone catapults opened their eyes and specifically aimed at the city defense weapons on the city tower. Soon, the sawdust on the city tower flew around, and all the city defense machinery were destroyed.


    "Fifty steps west of the tower, there are three strong crossbows!"


    "Thirty steps to the East, there is a golden juice pot rack."


    Xue Rengui looked up and saw the flag waving under the hot-air balloon basket. He shouted to the Tang army''s stone throwing machine to tell the Gaochang Garrison''s garrison equipment.


    Soon, more than a dozen catapults were launched together, and three strong crossbows on the wall of Gaochang city were hit at the same time. They were immediately torn apart and could no longer recover, and the boiled gold juice was destroyed and scattered on the ground.


    "Hit the target and move 70 steps to the West." Xue Rengui said loudly after receiving the confirmation of the flag. Soon, two four-wheel carriages carrying heavy objects pulled the hot-air balloon slowly to the west, and so did a group of stone catapults. He began to destroy the defense equipment of Gaochang city one by one along the Gaochang city wall.


    "Hot air balloon! Semaphore!"


    Hou Junji couldn''t help praising the function of the hot-air balloon, especially the appearance of the flag language, which made the power of the hot-air balloon all the more obvious.


    In fact, among the siege weapons of the Tang army, there are not no siege weapons comparable to hot-air balloons. The weapons nest car to be made as a supervisor is also ten feet tall, enough to see the whole picture of Gaochang city.


    However, compared with the hot-air balloon, the nest car has fatal defects. First, the production of the nest car is slow and takes half a month to succeed. Where is the hot-air balloon so fast and convenient? For half an hour, the nest car is too bulky. Once the production is completed, it can not move at all, while the hot-air balloon can move easily and cooperate, which is enough to destroy most of the city guarding weapons on the wall of Gaochang city.


    For a whole day, the roar of the catapult continued on the whole Gaochang city wall. Almost the immovable defensive weapons of the whole Gaochang city were destroyed, and all the remaining defensive weapons were hidden under the city.


    As night fell, the whole Tang army camp cheered, while Gaochang city was silent.


    "How is our army damaged?" in Gaochang palace, Qu Zhisheng asked a Gaochang general with a gloomy face.


    The general hardened his head and said, "back to your majesty, there are not many casualties among our soldiers, but most of the city guarding weapons arranged by our army can not be moved and have been destroyed by the stone throwing machine of the Tang army."


    Qu Zhisheng''s face was embarrassed. Gaochang''s troops were weak. He was already unable to cope with the 100000 Tang troops. Now he still had the confidence to resist. It was in Gaochang city with strong defense,


    Now, all the defensive weapons of Gaochang city have been destroyed. Without these defensive equipment, Gaochang city''s defensive ability has been weakened again, and the odds of winning this war are inclined to Datang again.


    "Don''t worry, king. Now the people of Gaochang are united and share a common hatred. Even if they lose their weapons to defend the city, they can resist the Tang Dynasty." a general said confidently.


    Qu Zhisheng was a little relieved and summoned up the courage to fight against Datang, but the panic in his heart still lingered, and he fell asleep hazily until midnight.


    "Ah!"


    Qu Zhisheng felt that in his sleep, the hot-air balloon outside Gaochang suddenly turned into an eye and stared at him, which suddenly woke him up.


    However, in his sleep, the hot-air balloon outside Gaochang suddenly turned into the sky. There was an eye staring at him, which made him suddenly creepy and jump up.


    "King!"


    The attendant on one side hurried forward to dress Qu Zhisheng. Qu Zhisheng walked to the high platform and looked at the hot-air balloon outside Gaochang city with worry. This hot-air balloon was the eyes of Tang Jun, who had been monitoring Gaochang city.


    Suddenly, Qu Zhisheng frowned. Suddenly, he found that the fire in the air was getting closer and closer. Just when he was wondering, an explosion came from the city. Then there was an explosion in the north of the city. Taking advantage of the wind, it soon spread into a fire, and even the night in Gaochang city turned red.


    "Come on, go and check. What''s going on?" Qu Zhisheng said angrily.


    However, before he got a report, he saw that the fire of the hot-air balloon had come into the air of Gaochang palace.


    "Be careful, your majesty!" with the startled voice of an attendant, a hall in front of Qu Zhisheng was immediately concentrated by gunpowder, causing a raging fire.


    Then several explosions exploded over the Gaochang palace, and the whole Gaochang palace was in a panic. It was not until dawn that the fire in the whole Gaochang city could be put out.

 Chapter 1093

    It''s just dawn! Qu Zhisheng immediately convened Gaochang officials.


    "How is Gaochang City damaged?" asked Qu Zhisheng with a gloomy face.


    "Back to the king, the northwest wind was strong last night, hundreds of houses were burned in Gaochang City, thousands of Gaochang people had no fixed homes, and six palaces were damaged." a Gaochang official reported heavily.


    Spring itself is extremely dry. After the gunpowder was ignited, it was taken advantage of by the northwest wind, and the fire spread to many houses.


    "Tang Jun really deceived people so much that he set fire in Gaochang City maliciously!" a Gaochang general said angrily. They didn''t check for a moment, but they were thrown gunpowder by the Tang army with a stone throwing machine, which ignited many houses.


    However, the catapult is just enough. What makes Gaochang headache is the vacated hot-air balloon. It can not only monitor the whole Gaochang City, but also set fire in Gaochang city. Even the Gaochang palace was attacked by it. People always think that the Gaochang city wall can protect them. Now with the hot-air balloon, the Tang army can ignore the protection of the Gaochang city wall and attack the city unscrupulously.


    "Report!"


    Suddenly, a soldier hurried to the palace and said with a panic on his face: "tell the Tang Dynasty that this is the letter of surrender that the Tang army shot into the city. If Gaochang refuses to surrender, the Tang army will burn Gaochang city."


    "Burn Gaochang city!" in an instant, everyone in the Gaochang palace was embarrassed. Now the weapons guarding the city wall of Gaochang have been destroyed, and the city can be set on fire by the Tang army. Gaochang''s situation has fallen greatly into the disadvantage.


    For a moment, the whole Gaochang palace was in a low atmosphere, all staring at Qu Zhisheng.


    Qu Zhisheng clenched his teeth and said, "it''s a delusion of the Tang Dynasty to force Gaochang to surrender. There is still a deep ditch outside Gaochang City, and Gaochang city wall up to five feet is protected. As long as the Tang army can''t attack the city, Gaochang city will always be safe. As long as we can hold on until the arrival of Gaoxi Turkic aid army, Gaochang can still be preserved."


    "What about the hot-air balloons in the sky? If they set fire every day, I''m afraid it won''t be long before Gaochang city will be burned out." all officials, civil and military, frowned and said that the threat of Datang is not targeted. As long as there are hot-air balloons, Datang can set fire in Gaochang City unscrupulously. Gaochang has a dry climate and is very easy to cause fire, Datang''s move really hit Gaochang''s death.


    "Tell every family to prepare water tanks and be ready to put out the fire at any time." Qu Zhisheng said firmly. Although a hot-air balloon is a threat, it is impossible to make Gaochang yield just by this.


    "Yes!" a group of Gaochang officials nodded. At the moment, Gaochang has not reached the end of its poverty. Although the officials were frightened, they did not have much intention of surrender in their hearts.


    Outside Gaochang.


    The generals of the Tang Dynasty looked at the thick smoke still floating from time to time in Gaochang City, and then looked at the huge hot-air balloon above their heads. They couldn''t help but feel a burst of awe. No matter which general encountered this kind of weapon that could only be beaten passively but could not fight back, I''m afraid they all felt a burst of weakness.


    "Fortunately, the hot-air balloon belongs to us," the generals said fortunately. As a friendly army, Tang Jun was naturally very satisfied with the damage caused by the hot-air balloon.


    "The fire in Gaochang city has been put out!" Xue Rengui Lang said when he saw the flag from the hot-air balloon.


    Hou Junji''s face changed. Looking at Gaochang city without any movement, he said coldly, "it seems that Qu Zhisheng doesn''t see the coffin and doesn''t shed tears. Come and fill the cutting with earth."


    With the order of Hou Junji, the soldiers of the Tang army pushed the already prepared unicycles, and the mud fell into the deep ditch outside Gaochang city.


    The large-scale action of the Tang army naturally alerted the Gaochang garrison guarding the city, and began to shoot bows and arrows at the Tang army officers and soldiers pushing carts. However, these wheelbarrows were protected by iron plates. In addition, most of the Tang army''s large garrison weapons were destroyed, which could not prevent the Tang army from filling the trench.


    It even attracted the counterattack of Tang Jun. under the guidance of hot-air balloons, a series of stone catapults attacked Gaochang city. For a moment, Gaochang garrison was immediately killed and seriously injured, and was no longer able to stop Tang Jun from filling the earth.


    Under the surveillance of the hot-air balloon and under the protection of the catapult, the unicycle transported the soil quickly. Gaochang city had high hopes to resist the trench dug by the Tang army. It was filled up for several miles in a day. So far, there was no obstacle to the attack of the Tang army.


    When Gaochang guards saw the flat city, their faces changed greatly. So far, there was only the last barrier between Tang Jun and Gaochang City, which was Gaochang city as high as five feet.


    What Gaochang didn''t know was that in the earth filling trench of the Tang army, hundreds of firearm supervisors were also carrying out geotechnical work and were secretly digging a tunnel leading to the bottom of Gaochang city.


    "This is the way that Mo Jijiu said Gaochang city can be broken at one blow. It is to dig a tunnel under Gaochang city to lead to Gaochang city. If so, don''t bother. Gaochang city is built after Chang''an city. Every hundred steps, there will be buried water tanks wrapped in cow leather, and special personnel will be sent to monitor. Once the tunnel is found, water will be poured into the tunnel or toxic smoke will be released. Then When the time comes, everyone in the tunnel will die. Unless it is a tunnel dug in advance, using the tunnel to capture the city can only be a dead end. "Hou Junji was disappointed when he saw the action of the firearm supervisor, and his heart felt like being cheated.


    At that time, mojiazi boasted that Gaochang city would be destroyed at one blow. He thought that mojiazi could really blow up the city wall with gunpowder. In the first World War of Tiancheng, mojiazi could only blow up the city gate, or kill and injure soldiers on the city wall, but the city wall of Tiancheng was undamaged. Although the power of gunpowder was good, it was thousands of miles away from the effect he wanted.


    "Mo sacrificing wine, if you can''t break Gaochang City, why do you boast? If Gaochang doesn''t surrender, how many soldiers and men''s lives will Datang have to sacrifice to break Gaochang city." Xin liaoer accused.


    Other generals also frowned one after another. They had great hope for the firearms prison. However, the behavior of mojiazi digging tunnels disappointed them. Looking at the history of war, we know that few people in history rely on digging tunnels to break into the city. It can be said that this is a failed tactic.


    Merton heard the accusations of the generals, but he was not angry. Instead, he said in a loud voice, "if this tunnel doesn''t lead to the city, but just under the city wall?"


    "Under the city wall, what should I do to invade the city?" Hou Junji was stunned. If he only reached under the city wall, the defenders in the city naturally had no way, but how could the soldiers invade the city?


    Merton proudly said, "the firearms Regulatory Commission will put tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder under the Gaochang city wall. With one blow, the city wall will collapse. Naturally, the Tang army can easily attack the city."


    "Collapse the city wall and attack the city!"


    The generals couldn''t help breathing. Since ancient times, the city wall is the most powerful defense weapon in the world. If the gunpowder of the firearm prison can collapse the city wall, the situation of the world war will change immediately, and the Mohist school will change the offensive and defensive trend of the world again.


    What''s more surprising is that these methods to change the mode of war are actually changed by using the abandoned tunnel tactics, and the mojiazi turns corruption into magic again.

 Chapter 1094

    Under Gaochang City, looking at the city wall, all Gaochang soldiers looked embarrassed. Without the barrier of trenches, there was only one wall between Gaochang and Tang army.


    Gaochang''s morale is at a low ebb. The defensive advantage of Gaochang city was gradually overwhelmed by the Tang army. This wall alone does not pay attention to ensuring the safety of Gaochang city.


    For a moment, an anxious atmosphere slowly appeared in Gaochang city. Everyone understood that Gaochang city was probably in danger. As for the remaining time, it depends on when the Tang army launched an attack.


    "Tell the king that the Tang army has filled the trenches in front of the major cities, and Gaochang city is in danger!" a Gaochang general hurried to report.


    "You are a group of rubbish, watching the Tang army fill the trench." Qu Zhisheng was angry and scolded.


    A group of Gaochang generals could not help but show shame on their faces and bowed their heads and said, "ministers are incompetent!"


    Tang Jun was monitored by hot-air balloons and protected by stone catapults. Gaochang''s garrison was unable to stop any action of Tang Jun.


    "What do the West Turks do to eat? How can the reinforcements not come yet." Qu Zhisheng said angrily. In his opinion, the West Turks are cavalry. If you want to send troops, I''m afraid you''ll have arrived long ago.


    "Back to your majesty, it''s the busy time of spring for all the grassland departments. I''m afraid we can''t draw many people at all, and general he Lu is also restrained by Qixin He Li and can''t rescue Gaochang city at all." Gaochang general said helplessly.


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help sitting on the throne. Datang was determined to destroy Gaochang, but the West Turks didn''t have the courage to rescue Gaochang. As a result, Gaochang fell into an embarrassing situation.


    "Report! Datang sent the surrender letter again!" envoy Gao Chang came to report with a dignified face.


    "Surrender?" at this time, Gaochang officials moved in their hearts. Now Gaochang city is facing a desperate situation, and Gaochang officials'' resistance to surrender is not so strong.


    Seeing the performance of the ministers, Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but draw his face and waved, "read!"


    "The Tang army said that if the king goes out of the city to surrender, the conditions of the Tang Dynasty will remain unchanged, otherwise the army will attack the city, and Gaochang will be responsible for all the consequences." Gaochang''s envoy read the book of surrender briefly.


    "Take responsibility for the consequences? Datang deceives people too much." Qu Zhi roared angrily.


    "Think twice, your majesty!" envoy Gaochang quickly advised. Now Gaochang city is on the verge of danger. The defensive weapons are destroyed, the trenches are filled, and only a wall is left to protect it. No! Now even the city wall can''t protect Gaochang city. Tang Jun''s hot-air balloon can set fire wantonly over Gaochang city. If everyone in Gaochang city hadn''t filled the water tank, Gaochang city would have burned to ashes.


    "No, I believe that the West Turks will come to the rescue, and their lips will die and their teeth will be cold. I believe Yugu will not be unaware of this truth. Once Gaochang falls into the hands of the Tang Dynasty, the next goal of the Tang Dynasty is the West Turks." Qu Zhisheng stubbornly said.


    "But what if Gaochang didn''t insist on getting help from the West Turks?" the Gaochang envoy stubbornly asked all the words he didn''t want to say.


    "Then both jade and stone will burn. Even if Gaochang city is destroyed, Tang Jun will feel the pain." Qu Zhi roared angrily.


    Ju Wentai would rather die on the throne than bow his head to Tang Jun. Qu Zhisheng never wanted to lose the throne he just got. No one was willing to lose his right at the last moment.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Go back to the general! Qu Zhisheng once again refused the general''s kindness." Xin liao''er reported to Hou Junji with his hands bowed in the Tang army camp.


    "I don''t know what''s good or bad! There is only one wall left in Gaochang City, which is doomed to fall. My general has let bygones be bygones, and they don''t appreciate Qu Zhisheng''s resistance." Hou Junji frowned.


    "If you don''t need hot-air balloons to carry explosives, blow up all Gaochang palace and scare Qu Zhisheng''s dog courage." Niu jindalang said.


    Xue Wanjun waved his hand and said, "it''s meaningless to blow up Gaochang palace. In the end, we''ll blow up all the granaries in Gaochang city and lose food and grass. We''ll see whether Gaochang city will surrender or not."


    Hou Junji moved in his heart, but shook his head and said, "no, the firearm supervisor will soon blow up the Gaochang city wall. Sooner or later, Gaochang city will fall. If he blows up grain and grass and the Royal Palace in advance, the Tang army will deal with the aftermath."


    If the Tang Dynasty captured Gaochang City, but there was no food and grass in Gaochang City, I''m afraid the Tang army would still be responsible for the rations of so many Gaochang people. At the same time, it is not conducive to the Tang army''s next plan. After all, there are western Turks eyeing. It may be how long the war will last. The Tang army needs the food and grass of Gaochang city more.


    "Anyway, there''s only one wall left in Gaochang city. It''s certain that the enemy can''t defeat our army. At the end, the general will lead a strong attack, and it''s certain that Gaochang city can be broken in one fell swoop." Xin liaoer said confidently.


    Although Gaochang city is strong and tall, it has been completely suppressed by the Tang Dynasty. It has lost its weapons to defend the city, like a toothless tiger. With the cover of gunpowder, it is like Tiancheng. If the Tang army ignores casualties, it has a high chance to capture Gaochang city.


    "No, in this way, our army will suffer heavy casualties." Hou Junji rejected again.


    If it had been before, Hou Junji, such a weak Gaochang City, would not have let go, but the success of destroying the city with firearms and gunpowder is imminent, and it is no longer necessary for the Tang army to sacrifice so many soldiers. Not to mention that the key defense object of the Tang army is the Western Turks. Once the Tang army suffers too many casualties, I''m afraid it will be taken advantage of by the Western Turks.


    Tang generals frowned one after another. They wanted to take over Gaochang city. The best result was to let Gaochang surrender. However, everyone knew that Gaochang city would fall sooner or later, but Qu Zhisheng was still fighting tenaciously.


    At present, there is only one way for the Tang army to reduce losses, that is, blasting the Gaochang city wall with firearms, but it takes time.


    "Time? Isn''t it just digging tunnels? There are hundreds of thousands of craftsmen in our army. If we work day and night, I don''t believe we can''t dig tunnels." Niu JINDA said angrily.


    Hou Junji moved in his heart and asked Merton, "if you can mobilize people and catch up day and night, how long will it take to get through the tunnel."


    Anyway, the gunpowder is ready. You just need to open the tunnel. At present, the most important thing for the Tang army is manpower.


    Merton solemnly said, "if there are enough craftsmen and manpower, and then go day and night, the tunnel can be dug under Gaochang city in up to three days."


    "Three days!"


    Hou Junji couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. Tang Jun could afford to wait for three days. Then Lang said, "well, according to what you said, three days is three days. After three days, the general will see the promise of ink sacrifice."


    Merton solemnly got up and bowed and said, "after three days, if you can''t break Gaochang City, you will be willing to receive a military order."


    "OK!" Hou Junji said, "in that case, if Gaochang doesn''t surrender in three days, blow up the Gaochang city wall."


    Soon, the Tang army stopped all actions against Gaochang City, and even the hot-air balloon hanging in the sky was lowered. The two armies of the warring sides fell into a strange calm.


    However, everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm.

 Chapter 1095

    "Back to the king, the Tang army is still quiet!" a general reported in Gaochang palace.


    In an instant, the whole palace was shrouded in a layer of pressure. Originally, the continuous offensive of the Tang army put great pressure on all officials in Gaochang.


    However, now they found that the most painful thing was not when the Tang army acted, but when the Tang army was silent, which was a kind of suffering for Gaochang city.


    "Is it the West Turkic reinforcements?" Qu Zhisheng hoped.


    A Gaochang garrison general shook his head and said, "no, there is no army or horse under the Tang army city. It is just a siege.


    "Is it Tang Jun who wants to deprive Gaochang city of soldiers of food? Tang Jun is wrong!" Qu Zhisheng sneered.


    Gaochang officials were silent and couldn''t bear to interrupt Qu Zhisheng. If the Tang Army wanted to besiege Gaochang City, I''m afraid it would have burned up Gaochang city. However, now even the hot-air balloon has been lowered, so it''s obvious that there must be a later move.


    When Qu Zhisheng saw the reaction of all officials, his originally excited heart suddenly cooled.


    "Back to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang army issued an ultimatum?" suddenly, the envoy Gaochang came in a hurry again.


    "Ultimatum?" all officials were stunned.


    Gaochang envoy said with difficulty, "Tang Jun said that if Gaochang doesn''t surrender in the afternoon of the third day, he will attack Gaochang city. Don''t blame Datang for its ruthlessness when the city is broken."


    "Afternoon on the third day!" everyone was shocked. In the past, Tang Jun sent only a letter of surrender, but this time Tang Jun sent an ultimatum. Obviously, Tang Jun''s patience had been exhausted.


    In an instant, everyone''s eyes focused on Qu Zhisheng, and Gaochang''s future was in his mind.


    "If the Tang army attacked the city, I Gaochang can hold on for a few days." Qu Zhisheng looked at a group of Gaochang generals and led the way.


    "As long as there is Gaochang City, I am not afraid of any enemy." gaochangshou said confidently.


    Qu Zhisheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. However, General Gao Chang turned his words: "however, the Tang army has added a new gunpowder weapon, which is invincible. Tiancheng is destroyed by this weapon. The last general has never seen such a weapon and has no confidence in his heart."


    Gaochang officials nodded one after another. Before the arrival of the Tang army, they were still confident to hold Gaochang city. However, the gunpowder of the Tang Dynasty really made them helpless.


    "So, Gaochang city can''t be saved?" Qu Zhisheng said coldly.


    Gaochang general looked at Qu Zhisheng''s gloomy eyes and couldn''t help but say, "I will do my best. Unless I die, I won''t let the Tang army step into Gaochang city."


    Qu Zhisheng looked slowly around the officials and said firmly, "command the city to speed up the production of weapons to defend the city. He will never give up until the last moment. Maybe the Turkic Khan army will arrive at the next moment."


    "Yes!" all the officials responded and left one after another to prepare for the defense of the Tang army.


    Until all the officials left, Qu Zhisheng immediately collapsed on the throne. Once Gaochang fell, all the officials might be fine. However, his fate was the most miserable. Even if he surrendered, his best treatment was to become a puppet of the Tang Dynasty, like voshun of Tuyuhun. He was more likely to lose his throne and be escorted to Chang''an city. Together with Jieli, he became a powerful booty of the Tang Dynasty.


    Either way, Qu Zhisheng, who has just tasted the danger of power, is unwilling. Of course, this is only the treatment after he voluntarily surrendered. Once the city is broken by the Tang army, he is likely to be killed by the Tang army with heavy casualties.


    However, the throne has another invisible magic, which has always made Qu Zhisheng reluctant to give up. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, he is still unwilling to give up his throne. In his heart, he has been waiting for the reinforcements from Western Turks. He always believes that Yugu Sheh, who has this bone cutting hatred with Datang, can never sit by and watch Datang annex Gaochang.


    With the passage of anxious time, three days passed slowly. Soon, the time for Tang Jun to issue an ultimatum is coming.


    All Gaochang garrisons are in full readiness. The Tang army under the city wall has set up an attack formation. The hot-air balloon that has landed for three days rises again. Everyone knows that as long as the time has come, it is the time for the Tang army to launch an attack.


    "King!" suddenly the general guarding the city saw Qu Zhisheng leading all officials to the tower in person.


    Qu Zhisheng didn''t pay attention to the general, but went directly to the city tower. When he saw the golden and iron Tang army, his heart couldn''t help sinking.


    "Western Turkic reinforcements haven''t arrived yet?" Qu Zhisheng asked with a frown.


    Gao Chang''s general bowed his head and said, "tell your majesty, we are besieged by the Tang army, and there is no external intelligence at all. However, according to the observation of Wei Chen, the Tang army''s troops have not been mobilized, and obviously we have not encountered foreign enemies."


    "That ashnahoru, if he takes so much wealth from Gaochang, he will only shrink in Khan futu city." Qu Zhi roared angrily.


    Gao Changshou said helplessly, "general Helu has only 20000 troops. I''m afraid he doesn''t dare to attack 100000 Tang troops at all."


    Qu Zhisheng could not help feeling powerless. Up to now, he had to rely on gaochangcheng''s own strength. However, at the moment, gaochangcheng was extremely weak.


    "The time is coming. The king should make a decision early, otherwise once the Tang army starts attacking the city, everything will be a foregone conclusion." Gao Chang advised.


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help struggling. Everyone knew that Qu Zhisheng had shaken.


    Under Gaochang City, Hou Junji frowned when he looked at the magnificent Gaochang city. With his many years of experience in attacking the city, even if the Tang army captured Gaochang City, there would be heavy casualties. Fortunately, there were firearms in prison this time.


    Hou Junji personally led the generals to the entrance of the tunnel. Seeing where Merton had already been, he asked, "how are the preparations for the ink sacrifice and the firearm supervisor?"


    Merton arched his hand and said, "if you return to the big general, the tunnel has been dug. Now there is only the last step to place gunpowder.


    Hou Junji said coldly, "what are you waiting for? Let''s start."


    With a wave of Merton''s big hand, he saw firearm officers and soldiers carrying long coffin like boxes into the tunnel.


    "Coffin!" the generals turned black. They were fighting, not doing it.


    Merton explained: "although the climate in Gaochang is dry, it is still wet under the Gaochang city wall. In order to ensure the dryness of gunpowder, the gunpowder is placed in the coffin, which can not only ensure the dryness of gunpowder, but also multiply the power of gunpowder in a closed space."


    After hearing this, Niu JINDA grinned and said, "it''s also quite appropriate to use coffins to send a funeral to Gaochang city."


    In full view of the public, the firearm prison went to Gaochang City, placed dozens of coffins, arranged leads to a safe place, and then sealed the tunnel.


    "As long as the general orders, just light the lead here, and the Gaochang city wall will fall with one blow." Merton proudly said with a torch.


    This move was a copy of the battle of attacking the city of Tianping Heavenly Kingdom. In those days, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom went all the way north, repeatedly broke the city, and loaded the coffin with gunpowder. It can be said that it made great contributions. Everywhere it went, the city was broken. Of course, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom also lost in this move. The Hunan army also broke the Tianjing City with gunpowder, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom perished.


    "Is it so simple?" Hou Junji said in surprise.


    "The general will know as soon as he tries," Morton said confidently.


    At this moment, the sun has risen to the sky, noon has arrived, and the deadline for Tang Jun has come.


    "Fire!" Hou Junji ordered coldly.


    "Obey orders!" Murton Lang said, raising a torch to light the fuse.


    "Wait a minute! Gaochang has surrendered and there is no need to bomb the city." suddenly, Xin liao''er''s happy voice came from the front.


    They suddenly looked up and found that the white flag of surrender had been hung on the head of Gaochang city. They were relieved. Sure enough, Qu Zhisheng couldn''t bear the pressure of breaking the city and decided to surrender.


    The people couldn''t help but look at the mojiazi with regret. Since Gaochang surrendered, they naturally couldn''t see the power of the mojiazi to blow up the city wall with gunpowder.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, the Mo family didn''t seem to hear Xin Liao''s voice, which directly ignited the fuse.


    "What''s the meaning of Mo sacrificing wine? Gaochang city has surrendered. Why do you light gunpowder?" Xin liao''er angrily scolded. If Gaochang City voluntarily surrenders, everyone will contribute to this war, and he has made the greatest contribution before. However, if the firearm supervisor directly breaks through the city wall, I''m afraid the contribution of this war must be attributed to Mo Jiazi.


    Merton said faintly, "general Hou has ordered the ignition, and Mo naturally wants to obey the order of the general. Moreover, our army besieged Gaochang city and Gaochang City surrendered. The countries in the western regions will certainly think that Gaochang is just forced. Now our army has broken through the Gaochang city wall with gunpowder and personally demonstrated to time the power of our Datang siege. Who dares to challenge our Datang tiger power in the future?"


    Xin liaoer was furious and said, "what you said is light, not selfish, just for you and the firearm supervisor!"


    As soon as Xin liaoer''s voice fell, he suddenly felt a tremor under his feet. Suddenly, a loud noise came from the bottom of the ground. The people looked in horror. The Gaochang city wall was cut off like a piece of paper and blew down ten feet.


    "The power of gunpowder is so terrible!" all Tang generals stared at the Gaochang city wall. As soon as they overestimated the firearm prison, they finally found that they underestimated the power of the firearm prison.


    Since then, the city wall has been the strongest shield for thousands of years. Now it finally meets the sharpest Spear - gunpowder.


    Morton patted Xin liao''er, who was stunned, and sighed: "Mo has a selfish heart, but Mo''s selfish heart wants to personally test the power of gunpowder in actual combat, and the deployed Gaochang city is the best opportunity. Otherwise, Datang Kong has the most powerful weapon, but it has not been used, and finally it is just on paper."


    Hou Junji looked at Merton deeply and said, "the ink sacrifice is right. Datang has such powerful weapons to show. Since then, who else in the world dares to provoke Datang, otherwise Gaochang city is his lesson."


    "Come! Attack the city!" Hou Junji shouted fiercely.


    In an instant, the drums shook, and a large number of Tang troops rushed towards the collapsed Gaochang city wall. The stunned Gaochang garrison had no resistance at all.


    Only on the Gaochang city wall, Qu Zhisheng, a frightened general, cried and laughed: "my king surrendered voluntarily, my king surrendered voluntarily."


    However, Gaochang city was in chaos, and no one cared about the former Gaochang king. With the Tang army invading the city, Gaochang defenders surrendered one after another without any resistance.


    So far! Gaochang city fell.

 Chapter 1096

    Gaochang City, the Pearl of the Silk Road, finally fell into the hands of Datang. When Xin liaoer led his troops into Gaochang City, he was immediately attracted by the prosperity of Gaochang city.


    Although Gaochang city was besieged by the Tang army, it was even burned by hot-air balloons and catapults. At the last moment, the Tang army left a hand and did not destroy Gaochang city. Xin liaoer led his troops into the city and immediately occupied a large area of Gaochang city. He was immediately stunned by the mountain of goods and sufficient Treasuries in Gaochang city.


    "Gaochang city is worthy of being the most powerful city in the western regions, and it is indeed rich." Xin liaoer couldn''t help feeling that Gaochang city not only has enough gold and silver, but also has all kinds of exotic treasures. Each piece was transported to Datang, which is of great value, which dazzled Xin liaoer.


    "Tell general Zhonglang that this is the account book of Gaochang''s Treasury, which records the Treasury treasures of Gaochang City," a soldier handed over an account book.


    Xin liao''er turned his head and looked at the mountains of capture. His greed could not help breeding. He threw the account books into the fire and sneered, "where are the account books? All the account books have been destroyed by Qu Zhisheng."


    Has the final say of the soldiers, and if they do not have the books to collect, they will not be able to say anything. They are arrogant and incomparable. Their hands are naturally like attracts like. Most of them are arrogant people. They can not see the rise of greed, and they can reach out to a jade article in the Treasury.


    Xin liao''er knocked out the jade articles in his hands and said, "these things are for the general. You can touch them. There are plenty of rich businessmen in the city who want money."


    His subordinates were immediately overjoyed and said, "thank you for your advice. My subordinates must have the benefits of the general!"


    Looking at the men who turned and left, Xin liao''er couldn''t help muttering, "our department has been a forward for many times. We have to make compensation every time we fight. Otherwise, how can we afford those injured brothers."


    Xin liaoer''s subordinates are brave and good at fighting. In addition to taking the lead, Xin liaoer also has the stimulation of money. Hou Junji will not hesitate to reward them after each battle, and Xin liaoer robbed wealth and distributed it to his subordinates after breaking the city many times, which makes his subordinates willing to serve him.


    If Xin liaoer was in the Tang Dynasty, he would not dare to plunder like this. However, in Gaochang city thousands of miles away, facing the oil-rich Gaochang City, Xin liaoer thought that the brothers made some small money privately. Who knows? Last time, they went on an expedition to Tuyuhun, but finally they only caught a few tribes that couldn''t squeeze out two liang of oil, and only seized some cattle and sheep, Gold and silver are even less.


    However, Gaochang city is not. Gaochang city is the Pearl of the silk road. The most important thing is gold and silver. Gaochang city is rich beyond his imagination. When a group of soldiers saw the wealth accumulated by the rich businessmen in the city, they began to get out of control completely.


    Merchants were broken in by the greedy Tang army, and a large number of gold and silver treasures were found. If there was any resistance, they would be killed by the Tang army, and Gaochang city would fall into a catastrophe.


    "The general is not good!"


    A soldier came in a hurry and reported in Hou Junji''s ear.


    Hou Junji suddenly got up and said angrily, "Xin Liao''s son is just fooling around and even conniving at soldiers'' looting."


    Hou Junji has always advertised that the Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. After Ju Wentai died, Hou Junji also set aside three days for Gaochang city to bury Ju Wentai. Now Xin liaoer''s barbaric behavior has completely beaten him in the face. "


    "Go and find Xin liao''er for me!" Hou Junji gritted his teeth and suddenly whispered, "let him come quietly and don''t disturb others."


    "Yes!"


    As the soldiers hurried away, Xin liao''er rushed to Hou Junji.


    Hou Junji roared, "Xin liaoer, you dare to rob Gaochang city. How many heads do you have?"


    Xin liao''er said carelessly, "the general is worried too much. If there is no booty, how can any soldiers be willing to work hard? Besides, when General Li attacked Turks in the north and Tuyuhun in the west, he seized tens of thousands of cattle and horses and was sold into money by Mohists."


    Hou Junji snorted coldly, "you know what? Military discipline has been mentioned as the top priority since mojiazi and Li Jing put forward the recruit plan. This time, you plunder without command. If you reach Chang''an City, you will die."


    Xin liao''er realized the seriousness of the problem and begged Hou Junji for mercy: "the general saved me. The last general is also thinking of the general."


    Xin liao''er said, and hurriedly presented two exquisite gold mats to Hou Junji. The gold mats are mattresses made of gold silk. They are of great value. They are not only exquisite workmanship, but also rare things, which have never appeared in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Tell the general, these treasures are unprecedented in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid your majesty hasn''t seen them. This is specially prepared for the general by the general." Xin liaoer flattered.


    A glimmer of greed flashed in Hou Junji''s eyes. Now Gaochang city has been captured, and the overall situation of the war has been determined. In the face of such great credit, Hou Junji can''t help being complacent, not to mention Gaochang thousands of miles away. Hou Junji has the highest power.


    "If you want to be successful and clean, you can find Gaochang people who oppose tiankhan''s orders and exile them one by one for thousands of miles." Hou Junji said ruthlessly.


    In two words or three, he was characterized by the act of pillaging Xin Li, who had been forced to suppress the resistance. Once the mainstream of the bitter struggle was put out, the behavior of Xin Hun ER was no longer proof. As for their wealth, it was not allowed to has the final say.


    "What about the other generals?" Xin liao''er worried.


    "Don''t worry. This time, the general only ordered his troops to enter Gaochang City, and other generals are still waiting outside Gaochang city. You only have one night," Hou Junji said.


    "Thank you, general!" Xin liao''er went away with great joy.


    "Gaochang city has been demoted. Do not disturb the people of Gaochang lightly. The rest are stationed in place."


    After receiving Hou Junji''s command, other generals couldn''t help but sink. Although they didn''t know what happened in Gaochang City, they could naturally guess a bit. However, Hou Junji was the main general. The fat meat of Gaochang city fell into their mouth, and the generals could only acquiesce.


    Of course, these generals do not include Merton and the firearm supervisor. At the moment, the firearm supervisor is surrounding the gap of the collapsed wall of Gaochang city and began to calculate the explosive power of gunpowder.


    "The bottom of the wall collapsed eleven feet, and the top collapsed thirteen feet." Zhang Mu shouted loudly, and Merton quickly wrote it down.


    "According to the visual inspection of the officers and men of the hot-air balloon, there were flying stones jumping nearly ten feet high at the time of initiation, which almost accidentally injured the hot-air balloon."


    "Ten feet high!" Merton wrote again.


    "The flying stone falls three hundred steps around." Zhang Mu measures it step by step.


    Merton recorded it again, nodded with satisfaction, got up and handed the note to the wooden Road: "continue to observe the crushing of bricks and stones around the city wall and draw out the schematic picture of blasting as soon as possible."


    "Yes!" Zhang Mu replied.


    "Please come here, sir, and report something!" Xue Rengui came in a hurry and said in horror.


    Merton followed him and soon came to the entrance of the blasting tunnel. Next to the entrance of the tunnel, there was a mess. All the catapults and vehicles were overturned, and some were damaged.


    "These are all destroyed by the heat coming out of the tunnel?" asked Merton.


    Xue Rengui nodded with lingering fear and said, "just these. Please look here, sacrificial Lord."


    Following the position pointed out by Xue Rengui, Merton saw that the mound at the entrance of the tunnel was inlaid with dense stones.


    "These stones are huge stones used by the firearm prison to seal the tunnel. They were all blasted, and many more rushed out with the fire. All these stones are deeply immersed in the soil. It can be imagined how terrible it would be if people face these flying stones directly.


    Merton looked at Xue Rengui and said meaningfully, "you mean there is a lot of gunpowder at the bottom of a closed channel, which is enough to rush out the heavy objects at a very fast speed."


    Xue Rengui couldn''t help scratching his head and said, "it''s just that the end general is whimsical. There are too few weapons in the firearm prison. The end will be excited to see the power of gunpowder, but where can we dig tunnels anytime and anywhere, and the enemy will stand at the entrance."


    Merton smiled and said, "what if we narrow the tunnel into Zhang Xu and cast it with steel?"


    Xue Rengui was stunned and said in surprise, "if you become Zhang Xu, you can certainly transport easily, and you won''t be damaged by gunpowder explosion. In addition, gunpowder and boulders are enough to be comparable to the power of a catapult."


    Merton said again, "if the stone hits the wall, it''s just smashing. What if you replace the stone with an iron ball?"


    Xue Rengui was shocked and blurted out: "then it can destroy all the enemies in front of him, including the city wall."


    Who can resist such a powerful iron ball? This thing can be made. It must be the most powerful weapon in the world. He never thought that such a powerful weapon should be designed because of the tunnels in other countries.


    Merton smiled, patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder and said, "this is your creativity. If this weapon can be cast, Rengui should take the lead."


    Xue Rengui quickly shook his head and said, "the humble position is just nonsense, and under the guidance of marquis Mo, we have the idea of this weapon, and we won''t dare to take credit at the end."


    "The most precious thing in the world is that trace of inspiration, and you can seize this trace of inspiration and think of weaponizing it, which is the most rare. You deserve this credit. This sacrifice is more than it is, and less than it is. But you are different. With this credit, you must rise straight." Merton solemnly said.


    Xue Rengui was immediately moved and said, "thank you for your advice."


    Later generations of Xue Rengui achieved great achievements late, but now Xue Rengui has experienced military training and two wars of the western expedition Tuyuhun and Gaochang. He is much more mature than later generations. Merton doesn''t mind helping him.


    No one could have imagined that Hou Junji and Mo Jiazi chose different Royal techniques at almost the same time.

 Chapter 1097

    After a night of noise, Gaochang city finally recovered its peace. The next day, just after daybreak, Hou Junji sent heralds and convened a group of generals to discuss the war.


    "The general has an order to invite Mo sacrifice wine into the city!" a herald came to the firearms prison camp and said respectfully.


    With the power of breaking the city last night, when all the officers and men came to the firearms prison, they couldn''t help feeling a little more awe.


    "Please report back to the general, Mo MOU will start now." Merton responded and immediately got up and started.


    When Merton walked out of the camp, the generals of other armies also walked out, and the generals looked at each other. Then they immediately stepped into the city,


    This time, the generals came into the city, not the collapsed city wall, but the gate of Gaochang City, which had been cleaned up and the gate was open.


    When the generals stepped into Gaochang City, the whole city was silent. There was no one above the streets. However, everyone could smell the blood from the air.


    The generals went all the way to Gaochang palace, where Hou Junji and Xin liao''er had already been waiting.


    "Your generals are just in time. Now Gaochang city has been won. Our Tang Dynasty has won the battle. This battle is the work of the soldiers of the whole army. After returning to Chang''an City, our general will reward you to your majesty." Hou Junji said frankly. He let his troops enter the city alone. Naturally, he felt guilty and couldn''t help saying something to calm the dissatisfaction of the generals.


    The generals thought that people could only lower their heads under the eaves. Moreover, after the war, everyone had credit. When they thought of this, they were more balanced.


    "Thank you, general!" the generals arched their hands in unison.


    Seeing the change of the general''s attitude, he immediately knew that his entering Gaochang City alone had covered up the past, and nodded with satisfaction.


    "Although Gaochang city is broken, one person can''t help but investigate the responsibility. Come and bring Qu Zhisheng up." Hou Junji shouted.


    Soon, a young man with dishevelled hair was brought up. He was decadent. If he hadn''t been wearing Gaochang King''s clothes, no one would have thought that he should be Gaochang king.


    "Qu Zhisheng, my general has sent you surrender documents again and again, but you ignored them and still resisted to the end. Don''t blame my general for his ruthlessness today! Come on, Qu Zhisheng resisted Datang stubbornly and refused to change his heart. He pushed out to kill him as an example." Hou Junji said coldly.


    "Yes, general!" Xin liao''er shouted loudly. With a wave of his hand, the two soldiers set up Qu Zhisheng and were about to drag him outside the palace.


    "General Hou, spare your life! The king surrendered on his own initiative. He surrendered on his own initiative." Qu Zhisheng kept struggling and shouted loudly, trying to save a trace of life for himself.


    Xin liao''er sneered: "if you surrender voluntarily, you still lead your troops out to attack the general. If you surrender voluntarily, you refuse to surrender again and again. If our army hadn''t blasted Gaochang City, how could you surrender? If you surrender voluntarily, why are there so many Gaochang people in the city resisting our army."


    If it had been before, Xin liao''er would have killed Qu Zhisheng first and Mohist Zi later. Now Xin liao''er''s attitude is quite the opposite, because once Qu Zhisheng dies, what they do in Gaochang city will become a muddle headed account and have no handle at all. Therefore, he is willing to let Mohist Zi take the credit for breaking the city and kill Qu Zhisheng.


    "The people in the city resisted. This little Wang really didn''t know?" Qu Zhisheng was surprised. He was imprisoned. He didn''t know what Xin liaoer did. He thought those people loyal to Gaochang acted spontaneously.


    If it were the usual, he would be very pleased with the loyal officials. At the moment, he wanted to hide far away and complain about these people''s trouble in his heart.


    "That''s strange. You said you surrendered voluntarily, but other Gaochang people didn''t know you surrendered. Instead, they took the initiative to make contributions to our general. Do you think our general believes your words or our eyes?" Xin liaoer continued to take the matter seriously.


    "The time of the people has nothing to do with the king. The king is dedicated to the Tang Dynasty. It is those officials who kidnapped the king that caused such a misunderstanding. However, the king did surrender first and then the city was broken. This can be learned from the world! Many people can testify." Qu Zhisheng shouted.


    Hou Junji laughed and said, "that''s a coincidence. If you surrender voluntarily, how can you calculate the city breaking power of ink sacrifice? Besides, if you surrender, ink sacrifice will cost so much gunpowder to blow up your city wall and ink sacrifice, don''t you think so!"


    Hou Junji suddenly turned his words and threw the problem to mojiazi. If mojiazi admitted Qu Zhisheng''s initiative to surrender, the city breaking work of the firearm prison would be yellow. He didn''t believe that mojiazi was so indifferent to fame and wealth, so he handed out the city breaking work. Even if mojiazi didn''t value fame and wealth, how would he explain it to the firearm prison officers and men, You know, if a general can''t bring credit to his soldiers, how can he convince his subordinates.


    As long as the Mo family recognizes the power of breaking the city, he has reason to kill Qu Zhisheng and completely clean up his hands.


    In an instant, all the generals turned their eyes to mojiazi. It can be said that the demolition of Gaochang city under the attack of mojiazi is comparable to the role of tens of thousands of troops. If they return to the court, they can certainly further the title of mojiazi. In their position, how valuable it is to go further.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Qu Zhisheng was stunned and looked up at the young and excessive general among the generals of the Tang army. He was famous for Mozi, even if he was far away in Gaochang. He listened to the story of Mozi''s weak crown, took charge of a series of deeds, praised Mozi''s popular poems, and loved to use the exquisite goods produced by Mozi village.


    He sometimes imagined that if one day mojiazi came to Gaochang, he would lead mojiazi as a guest of honor and achieve a good talk like his father treated Xuanzang, a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty. However, he never thought that he and mojiazi would meet like this.


    At the same time, mojiazi was the culprit of Gaochang''s destruction. If he had not come with gunpowder, Gaochang would have failed so quickly.


    When he stood on the wall, he felt the power of earth shaking and mountains shaking with his own eyes, and the scene that the wall hundreds of steps away was broken like pieces of paper. He couldn''t help regretting why he didn''t surrender at the first time. Now Datang, with gunpowder, is invincible in the world.


    "The Mohist school has always been known as the Mohist philosophy, and should not wantonly slander the king for merit." Qu Zhisheng hoped.


    Whether the Mohists stick to the Mohist concept and restore the truth, or whether they are ignorant and greedy for the work of breaking the city, Qu Zhisheng has no confidence in his heart.


    Merton turned his head and looked directly at Qu Zhisheng and said, "if Mo''s guess is good, the king of Gaochang should always have hope. Before the Western Turkic reinforcements arrived at the last moment of noon, he decided to surrender."


    Qu Zhisheng hung his head with a guilty heart, and Merton spoke directly to the bottom of his heart


    Merton went on to: "However, what king Gaochang didn''t know was that at that moment, the general had ordered the blasting. Mo had ignited the gunpowder, and the fate of Gaochang city''s destruction could not be changed. It took some time for King Gaochang''s surrender to reach the general, and it also took time for Mo to ignite the fuse to blast Gaochang city wall. Mo thought that the two happened at the same time, and no one came first The latter. "


    The generals nodded one after another. For a long time, either one of the belligerents surrendered or one of them broke the city. This is the first time that the war happened at the same time.


    After fighting for so many years, they encountered such a muddle headed account for the first time.


    No! It''s a confused ''battle''.

 Chapter 1098

    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but feel dejected. The reason why he seized the initiative to surrender was that he wanted to live. However, the words of Mohist school made him irrefutable.


    Once he lost the reason to surrender voluntarily, he could only let the Tang army handle it. In fact, whether he surrendered voluntarily or not, the method of breaking the city with Mohist gunpowder would have no effect on the Tang army.


    "But whether King Gaochang surrendered before or after, Mo thought that the general could not kill him." Merton suddenly changed his voice.


    "Ah!" Qu Zhisheng was stunned when he heard the speech. He didn''t expect that the culprit who led to the fall of Gaochang would finally save his life.


    "What''s the meaning of Mo offering wine? Qu Zhisheng ordered Gaochang to resist until the last minute, causing thousands of casualties in our army, and repeatedly refused to surrender the general. Which is not the way to die?" Xin liaoer retorted loudly. Once Qu Zhisheng didn''t die, he would certainly be escorted to Chang''an city. If Qu Zhisheng harbored hatred for them and told them in front of Li Shimin, Then they''re bad.


    Hou Junji also said coldly, "the general also wants to hear the reason for Mo''s sacrifice."


    Merton Lang said, "there are twenty-two cities in Gaochang. Now our army only captured Tian City and Gaochang City, and there are the remaining twenty cities. If we kill the king of Gaochang, the remaining twenty cities will fight against the Tang Dynasty, which will only cause unnecessary casualties between the two armies."


    "With mohou''s firearms in prison, the remaining 20 cities are nothing." Hou Junji laughed.


    Merton shook his head and said: "The firearms warden brought a total of 200 chariot gunpowder. After the war between Tiancheng and Gaochang, there are only 50 chariot gunpowder left, which is not enough to break through the remaining 20 cities. Unless the gunpowder is mobilized from Chang''an again on a large scale, it will be a long way, time-consuming and laborious. More western Turks are eyeing, but not with the king of Gaochang The king of Gaochang is here, and the remaining twenty cities must fall at the sight of the wind. Our army can conquer Gaochang without effort, and can preserve our troops and make every effort to deal with the West Turks. "


    Qu Zhisheng was overjoyed at the speech and hurriedly said, "yes, yes, Xiao Wang can write a letter of surrender. Other cities must take the initiative to surrender and meet the heavenly Khan army."


    "Mo''s offering wine is right. As long as there is Qu Zhisheng, king of Gaochang, and the rest of the cities are like looking for things, the last general is willing to lead an army to capture these cities." Xue Wanjun arched his hand.


    "The last general is willing to go." Niu JINDA also arched his hands.


    Other generals agreed one after another. Merton was right. Qu Zhisheng is really of great use. With this stepping stone, the credit for the broken city is not readily available. Why bother to attack.


    And as long as these cities surrender, the wealth in the city is not for them to take. Hou Junji is the Lord general and monopolizes the fat of Gaochang city. Although other cities are rich, they can''t hold many. There are twenty cities, enough for them to share.


    Hou Junji saw that mojiazi was supported by other generals. He couldn''t help but sink his face and wanted to forcibly kill Qu Zhisheng by the order of the Lord general. However, Merton''s next sentence stopped him immediately.


    "Qu Zhisheng is also the king of Gaochang, and we are just generals. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate to kill the king. Only your majesty has the right to decide Qu Zhisheng''s life and death." Merton solemnly said.


    "Yes, I want Tian Khan to judge me!" Qu Zhisheng shouted as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.


    Hou Junji''s face was embarrassed. If it was on the battlefield, it would not be too much for the Tang army to kill the other king on the spot. In the history of the Tang Dynasty, Jieli Khan didn''t kill him when he captured East Turk, Fu Yun was killed by his men when he captured Tuyuhun, and Fu Shun''s surrender was supported by the imperial court as king.


    However, now that Qu Zhisheng has surrendered, if he forcibly kills him again, he will have to take into account Li Shimin''s attitude, let alone Qu Zhisheng''s many uses.


    "Moreover, if we kill King Gaochang, I''m afraid there will be no more surrender in the future when the Tang Dynasty invades all countries." Merton advised again.


    Surrendering is also a death, and not surrendering is also a death. I''m afraid that all countries will fight to the death at the place where the Tang army will fight in the future, which is extremely disadvantageous to the Tang army!


    The generals nodded one after another. If Hou Junji killed Qu Zhisheng in public, it can be said that he had done everything, and the reputation of Datang in the western countries would be completely rotten.


    When Hou Junji saw that something had to be done, he changed his face and said with a smile: "the ink sacrifice is really dignified, even if he would rather lose the power of breaking the city and stick to the Mohist concept of keeping faith, I admire it!"


    Merton said positively, "Mo has no selfishness, but is bent on thinking of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Well, I''ll leave you Qu Zhisheng''s life according to Mo''s sacrifice." Hou Junji turned his head and looked at Qu Zhisheng''s way.


    "Thank you mo for offering wine, thank you Shangshu for sparing your life!" Qu Zhisheng escaped from death and thanked him repeatedly.


    Merton said, "I hope King Gaochang can make meritorious service. If he can successfully surrender the remaining 20 cities, I think Tian Khan will certainly see the credit of King Gaochang."


    Qu Zhisheng immediately brightened his eyes and hurriedly said, "I''ll write, and now write the surrender book?"


    Qu Zhisheng didn''t expect that he had a feud with the Mexican family to destroy the country. Now he has the grace of the Mexican family to save his life.


    Hou Junji reached out and waved. The two soldiers immediately waited for Qu Zhisheng to write the surrender document.


    Seeing Qu Zhisheng''s departure, Merton turned to Hou Junji and said, "the general''s plan is really clever. He bluffed Qu Zhisheng in a few words. With Qu Zhisheng''s cooperation, our army can seize the whole territory of Gaochang."


    Hou Junji was stunned. He didn''t expect that the Mo family was so talented that he would give him a step down here. At that moment, he immediately took a donkey down the slope and said, "it''s just a small sum. I can''t bear to let my Tang soldiers bleed and sacrifice in vain. I played this play without discussing with you."


    The generals came over and hugged each other and said, "general, this is also for the soldiers of the whole army. We admire it!"


    Soon, Qu Zhisheng had written the surrender document. The generals were overjoyed when they got the document. With Qu Zhisheng''s surrender document, everything was simple. Even if there were individual recalcitrants, they just needed to send someone to see the collapsed Gaochang city wall.


    The generals happily selected the cities they were going to occupy and couldn''t wait to leave. In their view, this was an easy victory!


    Merton didn''t care about this war achievement. First, there were only a thousand firearm supervisors, and most of the gunpowder had been used. In addition, with the power of blasting the city wall, there was no need to join the fun and follow the generals.


    After the generals left, Xin liao''er said anxiously, "general, it''s a great disaster to leave Qu Zhisheng. If this person knows that we robbed Gaochang''s wealth, he will surely retaliate against us."


    It can be imagined that if Qu Zhisheng does not die, he will either become a puppet like voshun of Tuyuhun, or be left in Chang''an city like Jieli Khan. He will be granted a nominal official to appease the people of Gaochang. Once Qu Zhisheng knows what they have done, he will certainly report to Li Shimin to avenge the destruction of the country. "


    Hou Jun Ji sneered at it, "you worry more. According to the general, Zha Zhi Sheng is just following the position of our army, and has the final say that he is not concerned about the Treasury of Gao Chang. Moreover, the officials of the Ministry of high Chang are trying to resist our army and have destroyed their books.


    Xin liao''er''s eyes brightened and said, "general''s name! As far as the last general knows, Ju Wentai is old and mediocre and enjoys luxury. He spends a lot of money to buy Mohist luxury jewelry every year, and he bribes Yugu Sheh with a lot of money. He has already emptied the state treasury."


    Hou Junji nodded with satisfaction when he saw that Xin liaoer was on the road. In this way, even if Qu Zhisheng suspected the appeal, they were not afraid, and even thought he wanted to avenge himself.


    "Report, the general, general Qixin Heli, has reported that ashnahoru has led his troops to escape, and robbed the Khan futu city before leaving." a herald hurried to report.


    Hou Junji and Xin liaoer couldn''t help sighing. If they hadn''t delayed in Gaochang city for a day, ashnahelu would have got the news and fled.


    However, ASHNA helulin''s departure helped them a lot. The Khan futu city was looted by the West Turks, which could cover up what their Gaochang city did.

 Chapter 1099

    Ashnahoru ran all the way until he left the Khan futu city hundreds of miles away.


    When he got the news from the top secret channel that the Tang Dynasty had captured Gaochang City, it was incredible. It was the first male city of Gaochang. He saw it with his own eyes. Even in the face of such a male city, he was afraid he was helpless, and Tang Jun broke Gaochang city on the 10th!


    "General! We''ll just give up Gaochang and run away. Will we be punished by Khan when we go back!" a commander said anxiously. In the Turkic tradition, if a Turkic warrior escapes, it''s a shameful thing, and they will be severely punished, let alone loot the Allies'' cities.


    ASHNA Helu Leng hummed, "if you don''t escape, even our 20000 cavalry will be damaged. Fortunately, after the Tang army captured Gaochang City, they immediately sent troops to Khan futu City, otherwise even we will be in danger."


    When he learned of the fall of Gaochang, he almost felt the crisis at the first time and immediately prepared to escape. Of course, he didn''t run away empty handed and plundered the Khan futu city directly.


    "This is the reward Ju Wentai promised to the general!" ashnahoru said secretly in his heart.


    "The Tang army is so powerful that it should attack and occupy Gaochang city so quickly?" the commander also frowned. In his heart, he has always been unconvinced by Datang and did not believe that Datang should attack and break Gaochang city so quickly.


    "Therefore, the general should continue to wait for the exact news here and see how Gaochang city was broken, so as to explain it in front of Khan." ASHNA heluning said again.


    Although he withdrew from the Khan futu city ahead of schedule, he could not understand the way the Tang army destroyed the city. I''m afraid it would be difficult to sleep and eat, and he could not explain to Yugu.


    On the third day, ashnahoru finally got the exact information, and his face sank.


    "With one blow, Gaochang city collapsed!" ashnahoru said in horror.


    "This is impossible? What kind of weapon can break the wall?" the commander did not believe.


    "Gunpowder, Mexican family!" ashnahoru said word by word.


    The commander was stunned and said, "it''s the mojiazi who reversed Yin and Yang when Tuyuhun ate the sun."


    Mojiazi accurately predicted Tiangou eclipse, and when it was dark, he used gunpowder to illuminate the battlefield. This mysterious means was widely spread in the western regions. It was even rumored that Tuyuhun was defeated because of mojiazi''s immortal magic.


    The western regions are more ignorant and superstitious. They believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, and even believe that Mohist immortal magic played a key role in defeating Tuyuhun''s army.


    This time, the Mohist School broke the Gaochang city wall with one blow, which confirmed the legend of the Mohist school.


    Ashnahelu couldn''t help but take a cold breath: "if the Mohist family takes a shot, one will break Tuyuhun and the other will break Gaochang, the next time may be my Turk. My general must report to Khan, Mohist family can''t stay, and I''ll take the gunpowder in my hand, otherwise the West Turk will be in danger."


    Immediately, ashnahoru immediately ordered the retreat, and he himself led the pro guard on three horses to the West Turkic King''s tent.


    The West Turk King''s tent is a scene of hay soldiers and horses. There are 50000 cavalry gathered here.


    In fact, Ju Wentai was right. The West Turks really didn''t want to sit back and watch Gaochang fall. Especially after getting ashnahelu''s help, Yugu set didn''t hesitate to draw 50000 elite cavalry from the busy people in spring to support Gaochang.


    With the 50000 cavalry set up by Yugu, together with the 20000 cavalry of ashnahelu and the local strength of Gaochang, it is certain that Datang will return in vain this time, but the sudden arrival of ashnahelu completely disrupted the plan.


    "Ashnahelu, the king ordered you to support Gaochang. Why did you escape back without waiting for the king''s army to arrive? Did you want to disobey Ben Khan''s order?" Yu gusher coldly when he saw ashnahelu.


    Ashnahelu said with a bitter smile: "it is not Helu''s disobedience to report to Khan, but Gaochang has fallen. If he sees the opportunity early at the end, I''m afraid he has also fallen into the hands of the Tang army."


    "What, Gaochang has fallen!" Yugu Shea was suddenly surprised and looked at ashnahelu strangely. He had just gathered a large army here and Gaochang had fallen before he could start.


    "That''s right! If it''s not useless to stay in Gaochang, how can the last general leave without fighting." ashnahelu said helplessly.


    "How is this possible? Gaochang city is the most powerful city in the western regions. If the Tang army wants to attack Gaochang City, at least tens of thousands of people will be killed and injured. It is impossible for the Tang army to withstand so much loss when it goes thousands of miles to fight." suddenly a voice questioned.


    "Who is this?" ashnahoru looked for prestige and saw a strange man standing in the military tent. Ashnahoru was a close confidant of yugshi. He knew all the Turkic leaders, but he had never seen him.


    "This is the special envoy of Tubo. He came to the Turks to discuss Lianheng''s fight against the Tang Dynasty." Yu gusher explained.


    "Even against the Tang Dynasty."


    Ashnahelu''s eyes lit up when he heard the speech. Today''s Datang is so powerful that people are afraid. If the West Turks and Tubo unite, maybe it can contain Datang.


    "Yes, the neighboring countries have been dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty for a long time. We, Tubo, have joined forces with all the departments of Tuyuhun to kill the puppet Fushun of the Tang Dynasty, which will restore the glory of Tuyuhun. According to the agreement between Tubo and Turks, Turks should support Gaochang and be sure to lose 100000 talents of the Tang Dynasty in Gaochang. However, the war has just begun, and Datang has captured Gaochang city? It''s too much fun ! "said the Tubo messenger discontentedly.


    Yugu set''s face turned black and glared at ashnahoru with dissatisfaction.


    Ashnahelu said with a bitter smile, "the special envoy misunderstood. The fall of Gaochang city has nothing to do with Gaochang and Turks."


    "At that time, because of who, could it be God''s help and a thunder pounded Gaochang City, which made the Tang army so fast?" the Tubo special envoy sneered.


    "Not ray, but the Mohist family!" ashnahelu said decadent.


    "Who is it?"


    "Mojiazi!"


    Yugshe and Tubo envoys spoke in the same voice.


    After ashnahoru told the information about the fall of Gaochang heavily, the whole account of the Turkic king was silent.


    "What a terrible weapon Datang controls when he destroys the city." Yugu set was frightened.


    "Gunpowder must be the firearm supervisor under the charge of Mohist. Special envoy Ben has been urging Khan to send troops because he was a little late when he got the news that Mohist led the firearm supervisor to go on an expedition." the special envoy of Tubo sighed with a tight wrist.


    "Mo Jiazi, this man is the culprit of Fuyun''s 200000 army. Unexpectedly, he is also the culprit of Gaochang''s fall." Yugu Shea was shocked.


    The Tibetan special envoy said, "to tell you the truth, the prime minister was not willing to light up the war and offend the Tang Dynasty. It was when he got the news of the mojiazi''s expedition that he decided to take a desperate risk. To completely keep the mojiazi in Gaochang, the mojiazi must die, otherwise Tubo and Turks will lose their days."

 Chapter 1100

    "Mohist must die? Ben Khan doesn''t believe that Tubo will fight so much because of a Mohist. He won''t want to get the gunpowder secret skill in the hands of Mohist!" Yu gusher glanced deeply at the special envoy of Tubo.


    The Tubo special envoy said frankly, "who doesn''t want the gunpowder comparable to the power of thunder, but what really makes Tubo sleep and eat uneasy is another thing."


    Yu Gu was stunned and looked unconvinced: "there is a secret that mojiazi attracts Tubo more than gunpowder."


    The Tibetan special envoy frankly said: "Yes, as we all know, Tubo is a place blessed by God. Once foreign people enter Tubo, it will be extremely painful for the light, and life will be lost for the heavy. But only our Tubo people can be safe and sound under the protection of God. However, according to Tubo''s insider Report in Datang, the Mexican family has found the reason for the protection of Tubo God. Once the Mexican family finds a solution, Tubo will punish Datang again No advantage. "


    Yugu Sheh and ashnahelu could not help nodding their heads. They also heard about the magic of the Tibetan Plateau. Such magic places are directly conducive to the invincibility of Tubo. However, if the Mohists crack the secret of the protection of Tubo gods and find out countermeasures, Tubo, let alone the Tang Dynasty, even the western Turks do not pay attention to it. No wonder Tubo is anxious and must buy ink The family died.


    For a long time, Mozi was in Chang''an City, and Tubo didn''t have any chance. However, this time, Mozi went out with the army, which made Tubo see the opportunity to get rid of Mozi.


    "It''s a pity that 100000 soldiers in the Tang Dynasty are almost unharmed. Plus the Mexican family has gunpowder in hand, we don''t have a chance to kill the Mexican family." ashnahelu sighed.


    According to the secret report, there are only a thousand Mohists and they always go out with the army. If you want to find Mohists, you must defeat 100000 Tang troops. However, the terrible power of 100000 Tang troops is enough to make the West Turks destroy the country. They have no chance at all.


    The Tubo special envoy sneered: "the prime minister has thought of this situation for a long time. As long as Khan takes the initiative to cooperate, the Mohist will certainly have a chance to be alone."


    "Cooperation? The special envoy is laughing again. It''s a well-equipped 100000 Tang army. Unless Tubo can cross the 800 mile vast sea and send troops together, Turks are not sure of winning." Yugu frowned.


    In the face of the Tang army that successively destroyed the country, I have no bottom in my heart. Not to mention that at the moment, when the Turkic ministries are officially busy in spring, it is the weakest time for the Western Turks, and I am unable to resist the 100000 Tang army.


    The Tubo envoy shook his head and said, "Tubo is not to let Khan and Tang army fight, but to show weakness and retreat thousands of miles. After there is no foreign enemy, Datang will naturally take it lightly. At that time, Tubo''s opportunity will come."


    "Retreat thousands of miles, don''t you think Ben Khan is afraid of Tang Dynasty?" Yugu Shea said with an unhappy face.


    The Tubo special envoy arched his hands and said, "Khan is not afraid of the Tang Dynasty, but confused the Tang Dynasty. If Khan cooperates with Tubo, as long as Tubo catches the Mohist son and is left alone, the gunpowder secret skill will be divided between Tubo and Turks."


    Yu Gu''s eyes lit up. Despite his hard talking, he actually wanted to gain more benefits. If he could get the gunpowder formula without a single soldier, it would be the best.


    Moreover, the 100000 troops of the Tang Dynasty are eyeing in Gaochang. They have long been very guilty of wanting Gu set. The proposal of the Tubo special envoy is in line with his heart.


    "Well, Ben Khan believed in Tubo once." Yugu nodded.


    "Thank you, Khan!" the Tibetan special envoy said happily.


    After the Tibetan special envoy left, ashnahoru was worried and said, "Khan, Tubo is ambitious. If he really got the gunpowder formula, I''m afraid he wouldn''t be so kind to give it to the Turks."


    Yugu set up a deep breath: "Ben Khan naturally knows the truth. However, now the Tang Dynasty is powerful, and there is a sharp weapon like gunpowder in hand. Western Turks alone are unable to resist the Tang Dynasty. It is naturally the best for Tubo to fight against the Tang Dynasty. However, even if Tubo doesn''t promise to swallow gunpowder privately, how can the Tubo army on the plateau be regarded by Ben Khan."


    Ashnahoru suddenly realized, "Khan is wise!"


    In fact, there is a deeper reason for Yugu Shea. Gaochang is not worth Tang''s sending 100000 troops at all. Obviously, these 100000 troops are probably coming for Western Turks. He originally hoped that Gaochang could consume part of Tang troops, but it backfired. Gaochang city has fallen, and Tang troops are not damaged at all,


    If Xiang Zhuang of the Tang army dances his sword to Peigong, I''m afraid the West Turks in a weak period can''t really defeat the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid they will repeat the incident of Jieli Khan, and it''s safest to retreat thousands of miles.


    With the command of Yugu, the Western Turkic King''s tent took the lead in moving westward, and other tribes followed suit and began to stay away from the Gaochang border to avoid the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.


    The East scale action of the West Turks could not hide from the Scouts of the Tang army. Soon, Hou Junji, who was in Gaochang City, had received the news that the West Turks were thousands of miles away.


    "Hahaha! Yugshe is really a coward and escaped again." Xin liao''er sarcastically said that yugshe was originally the royal family of East Turks. After the Tang Dynasty destroyed the East Turks, yugshe fled to the West Turks and finally usurped the power. The West Turks became independent Khan.


    This time, Datang dispatched 100000 troops. The main purpose was to guard against Yugu set, but unexpectedly, Yugu set again.


    "Hum! If you want to set up a wise man in the valley, otherwise the general doesn''t mind killing Turks again." Hou Junji snorted coldly.


    Xin liao''er flattered: "this must be the reputation of wanting to be afraid of the general. The general''s western expedition scared Ju Wentai, king of Gaochang, and the Khan of Western Turks. If it is transmitted back to the Tang Dynasty, it will certainly become a good talk."


    Hou Junji could not help showing his satisfaction, but said modestly: "I hate that I failed to do all the work in a war. I have to live up to your Majesty''s expectations."


    Xin Liao''s son didn''t know hou Junji''s modesty. At that moment, Lang said, "the general is too modest. The general has gone on an expedition of seven thousand miles to destroy Gaochang and return with the king of Gaochang. Who in the court can match the power of destroying the country."


    Among the generals of the Tang Dynasty, only Li Jing has destroyed the two countries. Now Li Jing has retired. Hou Junji has made great achievements in destroying Gaochang, which is enough to rank first among the generals of the Tang Dynasty.


    Hou Junji suddenly looked proud. The journey of the western expedition was very dangerous, but the final war was very smooth. The success was beyond Hou Junji''s expectation, so he pocketed the war to destroy the country.


    "By the way, how are the armies of the other 20 cities in Gaochang taking over?" Hou Junji asked.


    Xin liao''er Lang said, "don''t worry, general. With Qu Zhisheng''s surrender documents and the lessons of Gaochang City, the rest of the cities accept it very smoothly, but........"


    "Just what?" Hou Junji frowned.


    "It''s just a humble position. I heard that after entering the city, all the troops plundered and plundered a lot of money." Xin liaoer said jealously.


    Although Gaochang city was rich, it could not hold many other cities. Seeing that other armies were rich, he was sad.


    "It''s so brave that he ignored the general''s military order and plundered privately." Hou Junji was so angry that he was about to order the generals to be punished.


    "General, wait a minute! Now there are not only one Army soldiers plundering, but all the armies participating in the plundering. I must have guessed our behavior in Gaochang city. If the general orders punishment, I''m afraid these soldiers will be dissatisfied. If you appeal to the court, I''m afraid the general will not be punished." Xin liaoer hurriedly advised.


    Hou Junji''s body is stiff. He has just made a great achievement and is enjoying himself. If he gets in front of Li Shimin, I''m afraid he won''t get the credit and may be punished. This result is not what he wants to see. You know, when Li Jing attacked East Turks in the North, he didn''t prohibit officers and soldiers from sharing money privately. When I think of this, Hou Junji couldn''t help regretting that he shouldn''t be greedy to accept the rare treasure of Gaochang.


    "The last general thinks it''s the best of both worlds. The troops will naturally keep their mouth shut when they rob. In this way, everyone will be safe. It''s the best of both worlds to receive the reward after returning to the imperial court." Xin liao''er said proudly.


    Hou Junji nodded, which made his heart a little stable.


    "But what worries the last general most is the Mo family." Xin liao''er said in a low voice.


    Hou Junji frowned and said, "what''s the matter with the Mohist school?"


    "General Hui, all the generals took part in the longitudinal looting, except that the Mohist school didn''t occupy any cities and take any wealth from Gaochang. If the Mohist School denounced us, I''m afraid we can''t afford to go." Xin liaoer said anxiously, everyone is drunk. I wake up alone. Now the Mohist school is the sober man. When the world is cloudy, Mozi is innocent, that is the original sin.


    "Mohist Zi didn''t take a penny." Hou Junji frowned and was upset. When it comes to money, Mohist Zi doesn''t lack at all. It''s impossible to let Mohist Zi collude with them. In this way, they will always have a handle in the hands of Mohist Zi. Hou Junji, who is satisfied, can''t tolerate it anyway.


    "Mojiazi and I are not the same people. This person has always been a hidden danger. Mojiazi must die, or we will have trouble sleeping and eating." Xin liaoer said fiercely.


    "It''s nonsense. Mohists are our colleagues. Hou Junji is greedy for money and won''t aim his sword at his compatriots. If you dare to talk nonsense again, don''t blame our general for being rude." Hou Junji angrily scolded.


    "Yes, it''s the last general''s impulse." Xin liao''er quickly admitted his mistake.


    Hou Junji looked at Xin liao''er coldly and said, "remember, whether Mozi died in Gaochang or Datang, it''s a huge event. You and I can''t afford the consequences."


    Xin liao''er may not know the value of the Mohist School in Li Shimin''s heart, but Hou Junji, as the Minister of the Ministry of war, is clear. When Confucianism was in power, the Mohist School revived on its own, but it was safe. It was impossible without the protection of Li Shimin.


    Not to mention that mojiazi is the son-in-law of Princess Changle, but also that he personally recruited the general into the western expedition army. Once something happens to mojiazi, he is really to blame.


    "Yes! The last general knows." Xin liao''er wiped his sweat.


    After Hou Junji left, Xin liao''er formed and pondered Hou Junji''s words. Mozi could not die in Gaochang nor in Datang. Wouldn''t it be possible to die in other places, and there were only Mozi who hadn''t robbed Gaochang''s wealth. I''m afraid there were many people who wanted Mozi to die? As long as it has nothing to do with them in the end.

 Chapter 1101

    With the fall of Gaochang city and the active cooperation of Qu Zhisheng, the progress of the Tang army was unusually smooth. Almost everywhere they went, almost all the generals returned with full loads, except one, Qixin He Li.


    Qixin Heli led 20000 cavalry to monitor the Western Turkic cavalry led by ashnahoru. Ashnahoru fled ahead of time when he saw the situation was wrong, leaving Qixin Heli a riddled Khan futu city without any oil and water.


    When Qixin He Li reacted, the other generals had divided up the other 19 cities. Only one city is really unevenly divided, giving way to Qixin He Li.


    However, the wealth of only one city is not enough for 20000 troops. It is said that other armies are full of private money. The dissatisfaction of these 20000 cavalry is high, and he tries his best to appease them. After all, he is only a Tibetan general. He is usually cautious in his words and deeds, and in the military discipline of the Tang Dynasty, he is very serious about private looting, so he naturally doesn''t want to do much.


    Although Qixin Heli understood the truth, he didn''t know that the dissatisfaction of his officers and men was getting worse and worse, and this undercurrent was surging.


    On the surface, however, the Tang army won a complete victory, and the whole territory of Gaochang fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty completed its set goal, deterred the countries in the western regions, and the armies returned with a lot of money.


    This is Hou Junji''s brilliance. When Li Jing attacked the Turks, the army divided up almost all the gold and silver, leaving only a large number of livestock. In this way, it was very easy to be exposed.


    On the contrary, there were not many livestock seized in Gaochang. Instead, there were a lot of gold and silver. It was impossible to trace some of the gold and silver stolen. Moreover, most of the looted by the armed forces were private wealth, and Gaochang''s apparent wealth was almost unchanged.


    Hou Junji asked the troops to hand over the apparent seizure. The book was not so ugly immediately. It can even be said that it was the most seized by the Tang army. In Hou Junji''s view, it was enough to cover up the past.


    "Tell the general, our army seized it at this time. Now it has been turned over in full, and our soldiers haven''t taken any money." Xin liaoer took the initiative to hand over a large number of property, looking dignified.


    Other generals followed suit one after another and produced a valuable seizure list one by one,


    Seeing this, Qixin was proud to harden his head and said, "tell the general that the Khan futu city has been looted by ashnahoru. At the end of the day, another city will be captured, and only a small amount will be captured. I hope the general will forgive me."


    Hou Junji coughed. He knew that in this war, Qixin made great achievements, but the harvest was the least. At present, he comforted: "general Qixin restrained ashnahelu and made a lot of contributions. After the general returns, he will certainly make contributions to his majesty."


    Qixin He Li felt better. He arched his hand and said, "thank you, general!"


    After the generals handed over their capture, they found that only Mohist Zi was silent and frowned.


    When Hou Junji saw this, he couldn''t help smiling and said, "Mo Jijiu didn''t send troops to capture the city. He has been studying gunpowder in Gaochang City, so he hasn''t captured it. Please forgive me."


    Hou Junji seemed to have a reasonable explanation. However, after hearing this, all the generals looked dignified. You should know that each general who could enter the big account of the Chinese army had more or less embezzled items, which was a violation of military discipline. Originally, I thought all crows were generally black, but there was a white crow in the black crow group, which was particularly eye-catching.


    In an instant, all the generals were shining in their eyes and sitting like needles and blankets.


    Seeing this, Xin liao''er couldn''t help sneering. In this way, Mozi must have offended all the generals. Maybe someone will deal with Mozi without him.


    However, Merton did not change his look. He got up and arched his hands and said, "the firearm supervisor has few troops. He is really unable to capture the city. Please forgive him for not being captured."


    Hou Junji waved brightly and said, "no wonder, no wonder. The most important thing is money. How can you care about this capture?"


    Hou Junji seems to be excused, but in essence it is extremely insidious. He directly points out that mojiazi and a group of generals are not the same people at all. People don''t care about this little seizure at all. It''s impossible to damage their reputation for this stolen goods.


    The generals couldn''t sit still any more. In this way, the longitudinal soldiers who thought they were safe robbed. They were holding a time bomb and didn''t know when it would explode.


    Merton seemed unaware of the strange appearance of the generals and continued to bow his hands and say, "who hates having too much money? Mo wants to have the courage to ask the general for more rewards."


    "Reward?" the generals were stunned and secretly pleased that the Mo family wanted to get in and share some accounts. If they could pull the Mo family into the water, they wouldn''t mind giving the Mo family some money.


    Hou Junji was stunned, and then he laughed and said, "what''s the difficulty? Gaochang city has nothing else, but there are many rare treasures. At that time, select some of the most valuable for the ink sacrifice wine to ensure that he can return to his satisfaction."


    Merton shook his head and said, "the general misunderstood. In Mo''s opinion, the most valuable thing in Gaochang is not these treasures, but other things."


    "There are other things?" the generals couldn''t help but say that they thought they had searched all the valuable things in Gaochang cities, but they didn''t expect that they couldn''t see them in the eyes of mojiazi.


    "That''s right! Mo was born in Mohism and is most interested in the secret skills of the workshop. In Mo''s opinion, the most valuable skills of Gaochang city are the secret skills of making wine and the secret skills of baidiezi weaving. You don''t know that in Chang''an City, the biggest opponent to solve Qianchou is the western region grape wine, and Gaochang grape wine is one of the high-quality products. If Mo gets these two secret skills, he will win The ability of Mohist village will surely make it sell well in the Tang Dynasty, which is a steady stream of wealth. "Merton Lang said.


    The generals couldn''t help breathing. They didn''t have to think about how objective the profits were, and they were a steady stream of income. Compared with their rough looting, they were simply clever and didn''t know how much.


    "Not to mention the baidiezi secret skill, cotton has been popular in the Tang Dynasty, and the prospect of baidiezi secret skill is even broader." Merton continued.


    The generals couldn''t help nodding and Hao Ran couldn''t help thinking. Compared with the Mohists, they simply had no eyes. They picked up a sesame and lost a big watermelon.


    "So, mohou wants the secret skills of making wine and baidiezi?" Hou Junji said with some pain. After Mohist analysis, compared with the secret skills of wine and textile, his two golden mats are weak and explosive, just like a hick who has never seen the world.


    Merton shook his head and said, "not only that, Mo also wants all Gaochang craftsmen."


    "All Gaochang craftsmen!" the generals exclaimed one after another. You should know that although Gaochang has a small population, the number of craftsmen in Gaochang is not a small number.


    "Yes, these craftsmen are sinners who helped Gaochang resist the Tang Dynasty. Thinking that they are people in the same industry, Mo was kind enough to help them and bring them back to the Tang Dynasty for atonement." Merton Lang said.


    "Hiss!" suddenly, the generals could not help but take a breath. They should know that all the people in the world, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, are indispensable. The Mohist school directly took away Gaochang''s industrial circles, which directly caused the fault of Gaochang''s social structure. The whole Gaochang must be like a transferred backbone and no longer have the ability to resist the Tang Dynasty.


    When the generals looked at mojiazi again, they were a little more cautious. The so-called small theft beads and big thieves stole Hou. Their generals just stole some property, while mojiazi directly stole Gaochang''s national fortune. It''s not too much to call it a big thief. The realm of the two sides is different.

 Chapter 1102

    At the moment, the eyes of the generals looked at Mohist Zi, and suddenly there was a little more unknown meaning. Mohist Zi was more cruel than them. It can be imagined that once Mohist Zi stole the secrets of gaochangguo''s textile industry and wine industry, it would be two hens laying golden eggs, which could be a little more valuable than their killing chickens and taking eggs.


    However, even if the Mohists make too much profit than them, they can only envy them. They don''t have a strong industrial foundation in the Mohist village. I''m afraid they can only stare at their secret skills.


    "The Gaochang craftsmen will certainly be very grateful to Marquis Mo for thinking about the industry." Xue Wanjun took the lead in supporting.


    Niu JINDA then said, "these two secret skills are also useful in the hands of mohou. Even if we can''t make wine for me, we can''t make wine! But that''s good. If mohou makes grape wine in Datang in the future, don''t forget to let me taste it."


    "Easy to say! Easy to say! We''ll have enough grapes and wine then." Merton said bluntly.


    "We have no opinion!" other generals echoed.


    What''s more, they are not disgusted with the secret skills taken by Mojia Zi. First, Mojia Zi didn''t get any money from them. Second, if Mojia Zi took the secret skills, they would be with them. When the sky fell, with the tall Mojia Zi, they didn''t believe that Li Shimin would cure their son-in-law.


    Hou Junji saw that the generals expressed their positions one after another. He immediately understood that once he refused the request of Mohist Zi, it was not Mohist Zi who offended, but all the generals. At that time, once the situation of their longitudinal plundering was exposed, no one could be better.


    "In that case, make yourself at home!" Hou Junji said indifferently, letting the Mohist get some benefits, covering up his affairs and calming public anger. Isn''t it the best of both worlds.


    "You''ve got a good understanding of the Mo family and escaped!" Xin liao''er snorted coldly.


    "Thank you, general!" Morton arched his hand.


    Suddenly, the atmosphere of the whole Chinese army was relaxed. There was harmony among the generals and began to talk about the results of the western expedition.


    Merton sat down and looked at Qixin He Li. Everyone thought that among the generals, Niu JINDA, who returned from pingliao, should be close to mojiazi. However, when mojiazi arrived at Yumen pass, the most unexpected Qixin He Li warned mojiazi.


    Speaking of the little contact between Qixin Heli and Mojia Zi, when the western expedition Tuyuhun, Mojia Zi suddenly rose and robbed the credit that Qixin Heli should have pursued Fuyun and returned with Fuyun''s head. Merton had a contact with Qixin Heli out of compensation and did not dislike him because he was a foreign general.


    However, I didn''t expect that when I rushed to Yumen pass in the snow, in the face of Hou Junji''s difficulties, Qixin Heli gave him a warning at the first time. Then, when I crossed the Gobi for two thousand miles, the Mohists took the initiative to recommend Qixin Heli to find water for the whole army, so that Qixin Heli made great contributions, and their personal relationship was even worse.


    Qixin Heli was the first to return from the looting. Merton threw a peach in return and went to warn Qixin Heli.


    "General Qixin! The looting of the army in Gaochang is a scandal that will be exposed sooner or later. Please don''t go through this muddy water." Merton advised directly.


    Qixin He Li frowned and said, "how do you say this?"


    Merton said earnestly: "in the workshop of Mojia village, whenever a piece of goods is produced, his labor cost and profit will be calculated. Isn''t it true in the court? This time, the Tang Dynasty spent countless money during the western expedition, but the Tang Dynasty''s capture is very few. How can such a big loss business not arouse the suspicion of the court."


    "Mohou is worried. Marching and fighting is not such a calculation. Now that the Tang Dynasty takes Gaochang, it will control the silk road. What does the army get when it seizes this income?" Qixin He Li didn''t care.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "general Qixin''s words are very true. It''s just that Mojia village has traded with Gaochang for many years. Naturally, there will be a rough estimate of Gaochang''s wealth. Chaozhong has studied Gaochang for many years. How can we not know what Gaochang is rich who controls the silk road?"


    Qixin he lidon was silent and said in a low voice: "mohou''s mind, Qixin''s mind, but mohou only counted money, but not people''s heart."


    "People''s hearts?" Merton frowned.


    Qixin He Li nodded and said: "at the beginning, he and Marquis mohou marched westward to Tuyuhun and pursued for thousands of miles. That battle was the happiest time of Qixin''s life. However, Qixin was never afraid of any enemy in the war, but he was extremely oppressed after the war."


    Merton was stunned and sighed at the thought of Qixin He Li''s encounter.


    At the time of the western expedition to Tuyuhun, Qixin Heli joined forces with Xue Wanjun and Li Daliang. However, during the battle with Tuyuhun, Xue Wanjun marched forward alone and was ambushed by Tuyuhun, almost breaking his way of life. Fortunately, Qixin Heli led his troops into the siege and rescued Xue Wanjun. Later, Qixin Heli fought bravely against the enemy many times and made countless contributions.


    However, after winning the victory and returning to the court, the court rewarded him for his merits. Just because Qixin Heli''s credit ranked above Xue Wanjun, he was slandered and slandered by Xue Wanjun. In his anger, Qixin Heli almost wanted to use force with Xue Wanjun. Fortunately, he was stopped by the generals and punished by Li Shimin.


    Fortunately, Qixin Heli explained the misunderstanding to Li Shimin later. When Li Shimin wanted to punish Xue Wanjun in turn, Qixin Heli let Xue Wanjun go. Out of compensation, Li Shimin entrusted Qixin Heli with an important task and married the Lord of Lintao county to him. When they got married, Merton and Princess Changle also presented a gift.


    "Now every department of the Tang army has looted. If Qixin is innocent, I''m afraid it''s not so simple to be isolated." Qixin He Li said.


    Merton immediately understood that Qixin Heli was trying to pollute himself. He knew that the looting would happen, but he was still in collusion.


    "General Qixin Heli has been wronged." Merton sighed.


    "Qixin is nothing. It is said that when General Li Jing broke the Turks in the north, his subordinates were also allowed to plunder. Isn''t that so? However, marquis Mo should be careful." Qixin He Li took a deep look at Merton.


    Merton was shocked and immediately understood Qixin He Li''s reminder. He only saw the disadvantages of participating in the looting, but did not see the risk of different collusion. Therefore, he decided to put forward the request of Gaochang''s two secret skills to rob his craftsmen at the performance meeting, so that the generals believed that he was also selfish.


    Of course, Merton is also selfish. This time, he plundered Gaochang craftsmen to make the world see that craftsmen are the strong pillar of a country. Once they lose craftsmen, they will no longer have the capital and ability to resist the Tang Dynasty. In contrast, the role of Mohism will be magnified again.

 Chapter 1103

    After solving the "internal problem" of the mojiazi, the whole Chinese Army immediately restored harmony. Now they are as black as crows in the world.


    No, it should be said that mojiazi''s crow is darker. In terms of practical value, mojiazi''s interests are even more greedy than Hou Junji.


    Hou Junji looked around and Zhou Lang said, "there is only one topic to be discussed this time, that is, the war of the western expedition is over. It''s time to report victory to the imperial court."


    "Report success!"


    The generals could not help showing their joy. Now Gaochang has fallen all over the country, and the Western Turks have fled thousands of miles. All the strategies of the Tang army''s western expedition have been achieved, and they have won a great victory. This is a great victory.


    Moreover, I believe that this successful report will certainly satisfy the court, and all generals can reward them on merit.


    Xue Wanjun nodded his head in support and said, "we have been thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty, and the communication is not smooth. I''m afraid the chaotang hall has been anxious for a long time. Our good news must reassure your majesty and the public security of the chaotang hall."


    "Yes, now Gaochang has made up his mind. As for how to deal with Gaochang and Qu Zhisheng, it still needs to be decided by the court. I''ll wait to write. Just listen to the order." Niu JINDA said rudely. Other generals nodded one after another. They just marched and fought. How to deal with Gaochang next depends on the court''s decision.


    Hou Junji nodded and said, "in that case, the general will send a good report to chaotang."


    Soon, in full view of the generals, a detailed success report has been written. Hou Junji listed the merits of the generals one by one. Of course, the most thick ink and light color is the firearm prison led by mojiazi. After all, such achievements can not be covered in a single blow to the city.


    With the quick issuance of the victory report, the generals dispersed one after another. What they have to do next is to stabilize the situation in Gaochang and wait for the next order of the imperial court.


    Mojiazi was not idle. After the meeting, he directly led Zhang Mu to the cotton workshop and wine workshop in Gaochang city for a comprehensive takeover.


    The generals who got the news couldn''t help smiling. As we all know, Zhang Mu is a craftsman brought into the firearm prison by the Mohist school. He is proficient in all kinds of ink skills. Once Zhang Mu comes out, the two ink skills on which Gaochang became famous have no secret to the Mohist school.


    "This is the white fold? It''s really good!" Merton picked up a beautiful white fold in Gaochang white fold workshop and said with praise.


    "Hui mohou! This white diezi weaving technology was introduced by King Gaochang from Tianzhu. It''s an honor to evaluate the villain with a good sentence from mohou." the manager of the cotton workshop nearby said excitedly.


    It is reasonable to say that as the culprit of breaking Gaochang City, the people of Gaochang should gnash their teeth at the Mohist family. However, the attitude of Gaochang''s industry is difficult to understand. The Mohist family is their legend and the leader of the industry. Even in Gaochang, it is still famous, and all kinds of deeds are widely spread.


    Especially this time, Mozi used gunpowder to show the strength of craftsmen and conquered the industrial world of Gaochang at once.


    "This method is very different from Datang''s textile technology. After introducing Datang, it must be improved by mutual confirmation." Merton nodded.


    The steward of the cotton Workshop on one side moved in his heart and said eagerly in his eyes: "please be kind to mohou. I wonder if the villain can follow mohou to Datang."


    "You also want to go to Datang?" Merton was surprised.


    This time he mainly took away blacksmiths and carpenters. As for the cotton workshop, the mojiazi mainly studied technology and collected excellent cotton seeds. They did not ask to take away the people in these cotton workshops, and Datang did not lack such people at all. They did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to ask to go to Datang.


    The steward of the workshop nodded and said, "that''s nature. Datang is the land of the Central Plains and the richest place in the world. Who doesn''t want to go?"


    All the cotton spinning craftsmen around nodded and couldn''t help showing their longing. Although Gaochang was much richer than the surrounding countries, the craftsmen at the bottom still had a hard time.


    Merton suddenly realized that the international status of the Tang Dynasty is much higher than that of the United States in future generations. Naturally, it has become a place everyone yearns for, not to mention that they are following the famous Mohist family this time.


    "But now Mojia village is no longer involved in cotton spinning business." Merton wondered.


    The cotton spinning craftsmen could not help but look disappointed. This was the best chance for them to get rid of their fate. There were constant wars in the western regions. There was no stability in the Central Plains.


    "However, in the northwest, there is a Majia village engaged in cotton textile business. If you like, Mo can place you there, and Mo can ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing." Merton moved in his heart and thought of the leisure chess he inadvertently arranged.


    Majia village has just sprung up. I''m afraid it''s the time to need manpower, and Gaochang skilled cotton textile craftsmen are probably the talents urgently needed by Majia village.


    "As long as we can enter Datang, we can''t expect to enter Chang''an." the manager of the cotton Workshop said happily. As long as they can enter Datang, they will be satisfied, not to mention the work arranged by mojiazi himself.


    Surprisingly, the craftsmen of the cotton workshop who should not have been taken away scrambled to enter Datang, while the wine craftsmen named by the mojiazi to bring back Datang were extremely resistant to going to Datang and even destroyed their secret skills, so that there was no small storm.


    When Merton arrived at the wine workshop, he saw the two sides of the stalemate.


    "Excuse me, young master. Zhang Mu let the young master down." Zhang Mu came forward and apologized again and again.


    "What''s going on?" Morton frowned.


    Zhang Mu had to tell the whole story with a bitter smile. At the beginning, he went to the wine workshop to make wine. The secret recipe was very uncoordinated by the winemakers, and even destroyed the brewing process.


    Although he was quite accomplished in ink, he only mastered 80% of the secret skills of making wine, and one or two top secret processes were secretly hidden by the winemaker.


    Moreover, many winemakers are reluctant to go to Datang. It is one thing to know the secret skills, but it is another thing to be able to brew wine. It is necessary to have experienced winemakers to make successful grape wine. In addition, Zhang Mu is not a military duty and is kind-hearted. This has caused such a big storm.


    "We can make wine for mohou, but the winemaking workshop must stay in Gaochang, and we must not go to Datang." an old winemaker with gray hair insisted, even in the face of the famous Mohu family.


    Merton stared at the old winemaker in front of him and immediately realized that he was the backbone of the wine workshop. He frowned and said: "Mo acknowledges that Gaochang wine has its own uniqueness. However, it is a long way from Gaochang to Datang. Only rich places such as Chang''an and Luoyang can have sales. Its transportation cost is more than ten times the brewing cost. Once the wine workshop is moved to Datang, the price can be reduced and the Datang market can be opened up. That is the brilliant road of wine in the future."


    In this era, the biggest cost is the transportation cost. Gaochang is too far away from Datang. How much are grapes? Seven thousand miles at a time is the biggest cost of wine.


    The old winemaker said with a bitter smile: "mohou is worthy of the name of turning stone into gold. A word points out the weakness of Gaochang wine. Lao Lao also believes that wine will be carried forward in the hands of mohaizi. If I didn''t want to give up those fruit farmers, I would follow mohou without hesitation."


    "Fruit grower?" Merton was not surprised. Only then did he understand the reason why the old winemaker refused to go to Datang.


    The old winemaker nodded: "Yes, Gaochang has a unique climate and is rich in grapes. However, how many grapes can Gaochang consume alone? Besides, grapes can''t be used as food. Helpless, Gaochang brews grapes into wine in exchange for money and food. Once we leave and the winery closes, those fruit farmers will suffer heavy losses and have no livelihood. Please mohou Haihan and love the people of Gaochang."


    The old winemaker obviously has some knowledge, and even the universal love concept of Mohism has been moved out.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing at his words and said, "what''s the difficulty? If Mo finds a livelihood for grape farmers and earns even more than making wine, can the old man go to Datang at ease.


    "Earn more than making wine." the old winemaker was stunned.


    Merton got up and wiped his sweat. Now it''s just the beginning of summer. Gaochang is already unbearably hot. Bursts of heat waves hit. Merton can''t help thinking of a famous food in later generations, a unique food that can only be produced in this basin in the country - raisins.

 Chapter 1104

    After calming Gaochang, the Tang army had no war. They just had to wait for the next order of the imperial court. All the generals were bored waiting for the new order.


    "By the way, why don''t you see Mojia Zi? What are Mojia Zi doing?" Hou Junji frowned and asked. Recently, they often meet with various generals, but only Mojia Zi''s Dragon sees the head and doesn''t see the tail.


    "General, I heard that Mohist was recruiting Gaochang craftsmen to Datang. Everything was going very well and the craftsmen cooperated very well. However, the wine workshop encountered difficulties. The stubborn winemakers didn''t hand over the secret recipe and didn''t want to go to Datang. They thought that Mohist was solving the matter." Xin liaoer gloated.


    Everyone knows that once the Mohist family obtains these two secret skills, it will be rich. Now the Mohist family is frustrated, and it is the most valuable wine secret skill. Xin liaoer can''t help feeling gloating.


    "The benevolence of women." Hou Junji snorted coldly. Now they are winners and conquerors. Just give an order, who in Gaochang dares to refuse their plan and kill those who refuse, he doesn''t believe that the workshops dare to resist.


    Xin liao''er said, "it''s a pity to come to mojiazi. It is said that the condition of the wine making workshop is that if mojiazi wants to move the wine making workshop to Datang, he must find another livelihood for a group of grape farmers."


    "Another livelihood!"


    Hou Junji moved in his heart and waved, "go and find out what the Mohists are doing?"


    "Yes!" Xin liao''er left reluctantly. Now it''s noon. Gaochang has an extremely hot climate. It''s not a good job to go out in the sun.


    Gaochang city is located in the famous Turpan Basin of later generations. It is known as the three furnaces. The famous Flame Mountain of later generations is here. It is extremely hot every summer, and the high temperature can reach daytime.


    Fortunately, the battle of Gaochang was ended ahead of schedule because of the destruction of the city by the powder of the Mohist school. Otherwise, I''m afraid some people will suffer if it is dragged into the hot summer.


    "It''s still comfortable in Chang''an city."


    Merton looked up at the hot sun and only felt waves of heat coming. Although the summer in Chang''an city is very hot, it can be borne by people. Not to mention the popularity of ice making technology, it can make people spend the summer easily.


    Of course, such hot weather does not bring all the heat to Gaochang, but also sweet and juicy fruits, and Gaochang grapes are among the best, which makes every business trip passing Gaochang full of praise.


    "Young master, the grapes have been transported." Zhang Mu came in a hurry in the scorching heat, with a group of Gaochang fruit farmers pulling a cart of newly picked grapes behind him.


    "Sure enough!" Merton came forward, picked up a bunch of grapes and tasted them. They were really sweet and delicious.


    "Thank you for your exaggeration," the old winemaker said proudly.


    "Let''s go"


    Merton touched his sweat and waved his hand.


    Suddenly, Gaochang fruit farmers pushed the grapes they had just picked and put them into a strange house in front of them. Ordinary houses only left doors and windows, and the house had many dense holes on all sides. It could even be said that it was ventilated on all sides, and it was covered with ropes. Fruit farmers hung clusters of grapes on the rope.


    "This batch is the most mature grapes." the old winemaker was a little reluctant. In the past, the first batch and the best grapes were specially used for wine making in wine workshops. However, now they are hung in such a room full of pores by mohou. If the grapes are bad, it will be a natural thing.


    Merton looked at the expression of the old winemaker. He didn''t know what he was thinking. At the moment, he said with a smile: "don''t worry, the climate of Gaochang is unique, the summer is high, and the temperature difference between day and night is great. The sugar content of melons and fruits is very high. If grapes are put into the shade room, they will only evaporate the moisture of grapes quickly, leaving sugar, just like preserved fruits?"


    The old winemaker couldn''t help but look at the preserved fruit. He naturally knew that if it could be made into preserved fruit, it could be preserved and transported for a long time, but the grapes were too wet. Once the preserved fruit was generally cut, it would soon break down, but he didn''t think that mojiazi had a wonderful idea to hang the whole bunch of grapes and specially invented a house to dry the grapes.


    In this way, grapes have peel protection and will not break down. They can also evaporate water and retain sugar in a short time. They will not break down naturally, and even have a higher sweetness, just like icing honey.


    Other winemakers are also skeptical, but when they think of the legendary experience of mojiazi, they are a little relieved. After all, what mojiazi said has a certain truth.


    Once the raisins mentioned by mojiazi are successfully made, it is not only convenient for preservation, but also convenient for transportation. It can be popularized by every household, which is much better than the income of brewing wine.


    "The old man naturally believes in mohou, but those fruit farmers have never seen this method, so I''m afraid they will question mohou." the old winemaker hesitated. After all, this method is the first time. These fruit farmers must have doubts. After all, this is the result of their hard work for a year. In previous years, they were purchased by the winery for money, but now they let them stay in the shade to dry. In case it doesn''t work, Then I''m afraid they have nothing to lose.


    Merton stalled and said, "how could the first winemaker know the formula of wine? It must have been questioned until he brewed sweet and delicious grape wine, which caused everyone to follow suit. The same is true for raisins!"


    The old winemaker could not help but be silent. It was passed down from generation to generation in Gaochang that the first person to make wine inadvertently discovered it. It is so similar to today''s situation, but now that Gaochang has just lost the war, fruit farmers'' livelihood for a year is on grapes, so they naturally worry about gain and loss.


    Merton waved his big hand and said, "what''s the difficulty? Go and tell those fruit farmers that the grapes in Gaochang this year are all collected according to the price last year, so that they can transport them safely."


    "Thank you, mohou!"


    The old winemaker couldn''t help but rejoice. It is worthy of being a generous Mo family. In this way, the fruit farmers have no worries.


    Soon, with the carts of raisins pulled into the shade room to dry, the great pen of mojiazi spread all over Gaochang city. Everyone knows that mojiazi is not letting the workshop make wine, but preparing to dry raisins.


    "Raisins!" Hou Junji raised his eyebrows when he heard Xin liao''er''s report.


    "That''s right! Now the mojiazi has requisitioned the wine workshop to dry raisins, and spent money to buy all the grapes. Now it has spread all over Gaochang city." Xin liaoer frowned.


    "Raisins! Forget it, it''s up to Mojia Zi to toss!" Hou Junji waved his hand. When Tuyuhun was in the last western expedition, Mojia Zi made green reserve feed. This time, it''s not surprising that Mojia Zi made raisins again in Gaochang.


    What really concerns Hou Junji is another thing, that is, the good news of the western expedition should also come to Chang''an city.

 Chapter 1105

    At the time of the Tang army''s western expedition, the army shell went out in December. It did not reach Gaochang until March next year. The time span was as long as three months. Although there was a delay, it took another three months on the road.


    However, the return speed of the messenger of the western expedition was much faster. When starting from Gaochang City, all the messenger of the victory were riding three people, and each horse had prepared enough food and water to rush back to Datang as soon as possible.


    "Drive!"


    A team of three people reported their victory, and the messenger rushed eastward into the vast Gobi without looking back. The sufficient food and water behind them gave them sufficient confidence and let them cross the next door two thousand miles.


    However, Rao is so. In summer, the hot temperature in the desert still made the messenger suffer enough. Even if there was enough food and water, he walked 2000 miles in the Gobi desert for ten days before he could reach the Yumen pass.


    All the messengers were relieved. As long as they reached Yumen pass, they would reach the border of the Tang Dynasty. They could use the post station system, and the rest of the way would be easy to go.


    "Great victory in Gaochang! Break through 22 cities." the herald, led by him, waved his hand and roared fiercely.


    In an instant, the whole Yumen pass was boiling. Yumen pass was originally built for war. Naturally, everyone cheered when they heard the success of the western expedition, but there was only one person standing there, Su dingfang.


    "What, Gaochang victory!"


    Su dingfang is not an ordinary soldier. He will only be happy to hear the great victory. At their level, he will naturally think more. Shortly after the imperial court''s western expedition left, according to the agreement, he is organizing the second batch of grain, grass and weapons to be transported to Gaochang. After all, no one knows when the battle will be fought. If there is no supply at that time, it will be troublesome. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of Tang soldiers. Eating and drinking every day is not a small expense.


    However, Su dingfang had just finished his preparations and had not had time to start. The war in Gaochang was over. It was too fast.


    However, Su dingfang was stunned when he heard about the battle of Gaochang from the messenger.


    "Gunpowder! Destroy the city with one blow!" Su dingfang took a breath. He could think of how powerful it was just by imagination.


    "Tell the general that there are still thousands of miles to Chang''an. The last general asked to requisition 800 miles of the post station for expediting." the chief messenger bowed,


    "Yes!"


    After su dingfang verified that the success report was correct, he said loudly that such great success reports naturally have the right to expropriate 800 Li for emergency, and the imperial court must have been waiting for emergency now! no I''m afraid the court hasn''t started waiting! "


    "Thank you, general!" the three messengers hurried away immediately after receiving the order, requisitioned three good horses from the post station, and galloped East without stopping.


    I''m afraid the messenger will deliver the message to the post station faster, but no one is willing to give up the opportunity of such scenery. The three messengers unanimously decided to deliver the message back to Chang''an City in person.


    "General, are these grain and grass still transported?" one of Su dingfang''s men looked at the mountain of grain and grass in Yumen pass and hesitated.


    Su dingfang shook his head and said, "give me a fart! The army has captured the whole territory of Gaochang. There is no shortage of food and grass for a long time. These food and grass can be preserved at Yumen pass first. Maybe they can be used when the army triumphs, but he ordered the rear to stop transporting food to Yumen pass."


    "Yes!" his men ordered him to leave immediately.


    "I''m sorry we didn''t March to the West together!" Su dingfang thought about the grand occasion of the western expedition, the hardships of crossing the Gobi desert, the situation of breaking the city in one blow, and the pleasure of Gaochang''s national surrender. This is what a general should have.


    With the help of the post station, the speed of the three messengers increased again. The horses arbitrarily collected to the post station ran 800 miles on the first day, and cheered all the way.


    "Why is the announcement so slow? Why hasn''t the brick road been built yet? If we change the road, it''s not difficult for us to travel thousands of miles a day." a messenger frowned. According to the imperial court''s announcement, the brick road from Lanzhou to Yumenguan must be completed before the army triumphs. Now they have won in Gaochang, and the Ministry of industry still has such a long brick road to be repaired, Compared with when they set out for the war, they didn''t build much road at all.


    "Maybe the army won too fast!" the chief messenger said with a bitter smile.


    The next day, three messengers of victory rode 200 miles across a group of civilian men who were building roads. Only then did they embark on a flat brick road and leave.


    "Gaochang victory!"


    Hearing the good news that everyone cheered, the waiter of the Ministry of industry almost jumped to his feet. Their original plan was that the western expedition would not finish the war until at least August and September, but who could have thought it would end so soon.


    If the soldiers of the western expedition triumph, they have not yet reached the Yumen pass, I''m afraid even he will be held accountable.


    "Hurry up, send an order to the officials along the road immediately, that is, the Ministry of work now needs a lot of corvee and more bricks. It must be repaired to Yumen pass in the shortest time." the waiter of the Ministry of work said urgently.


    "But now it''s a busy time for farming. I''m afraid there aren''t many people, and it will take some time to burn bricks." a head of the Ministry of work asked.


    The waiter of the Ministry of work said coldly, "even if you spend money to hire people, you should hire two people. If you don''t have bricks, you can spend money in the cities behind you. I will apply to the Ministry of work for money."


    If the triumph of the officers and men of the western expedition is delayed, the Ministry of work will certainly not be able to eat and walk around. I believe Lord Shangshu will certainly agree.


    After the messenger set foot on the brick road, the speed was even faster. He went all the way East without stopping, crossed Wuwei, and inadvertently passed Majia village.


    "Mohou wins!"


    When Majia village heard Merton''s news, it couldn''t help cheering. Today''s Majia village is a big change. The whole village head is a hot imperial court, which is expanding at a visible speed, filled with bought cotton and leather.


    With sufficient raw materials, Ma Jiacun is worried that there are not so many people spinning flowers and weaving cloth. However, Ma Jiacun doesn''t know that Merton, who is far away in Gaochang, has solved this problem for him. As long as the army triumphs, a group of skilled cotton spinning craftsmen will come to Ma Jiacun. At that time, Ma Jiacun''s strength will double again.


    The messenger of good news galloped eastward. After crossing Lanzhou, he traveled day and night. He rode a horse during the day. At night, the three messengers would travel at night in a four-wheel carriage, and even reached the extreme speed of traveling thousands of miles a day. He had arrived at Chang''an City from Lanzhou in only two days.


    "Gaochang victory!"


    When the three messengers shouted. Everywhere they went, everyone shouted, they just felt that they deserved it. It was no better than Tuyuhun, an old enemy for many years. Gaochang had few people and the country was weak. It was not natural to win the war. If they lost, it would be big news.


    The only surprise to the people was that the speed was too fast. Gaochang was too spineless. It ended so soon.


    Such a dish is still so horizontal. It''s killing me.

 Chapter 1106

    "Gaochang victory!"


    In front of the west gate, a son of the Mohist family was working in a shop in the Mohist village. Suddenly, he heard the messenger shouting and was stunned,


    "Gaochang was a great victory. Didn''t the young master who followed the army on the western expedition to Gaochang also win." the children of the Mohist family immediately asked the waiter to see the store, stepped out of the store, rode a bike and ran straight to the Mohist house.


    Since Merton joined the army in the western expedition, almost no news came. Now there is finally a message of victory. The children of the Mohists naturally want to "attack Tiancheng in half a day, attack Gaochang city in one blow, and ashnahelu fled without fighting and surrender the whole territory of Gaochang in one piece of paper."


    The news on the good news made all officials look like fantasy, especially the destruction of the city. This is a weapon comparable to miracles, which was controlled by Datang.


    You should know that Gaochang city was built after Chang''an city. Gunpowder can break Gaochang city today. Won''t it be possible to break Chang''an City in the future.


    For a moment, everyone was awestruck. Such a powerful weapon was in the hands of Mohist Zi, which made everyone more worried.


    Li Jing, on the other hand, couldn''t help smiling bitterly. His military book has been finished and is preparing to be used as a teaching material in the military academy. Now it seems that it still needs to be revised, because he doesn''t know how many times to revise the military book.


    Mojiazi once again used gunpowder to change the concept of war. From then on, the city wall is no longer the strongest shield, and gunpowder will become the strongest spear.


    "In this way, the danger of Tuyuhun will be overcome without attack." suddenly Cheng Yaojin said in surprise.


    "Yes!" the officials said in their hearts.


    All officials were suddenly relieved. The troubles that had enveloped the people suddenly disappeared. When 100000 troops occupied Gaochang, it was not the Tang army that was surrounded, but Tuyuhun was surrounded again. The pattern of the western regions, which was once in danger, suddenly became a very favorable situation for the Tang army.


    "Well, pass this good news to the world and strike the morning for a day to celebrate." Li Shimin forced himself to resist his excitement and ordered loudly. At the same time, he didn''t forget that he was lazy for a day.


    "But?" a civil official also wanted to remind Li Shimin that 100000 troops were still waiting for the next order in Gaochang. They were about to advise, but they were stopped by the officials next to them.


    Because of Tuyuhun, all the officials of the imperial court didn''t know how many nights they didn''t sleep well. Now no one will disturb Li Shimin''s interest. They didn''t see that even the leader Wei Zheng didn''t have the slightest intention of persuasion.


    Anyway, Tang Jun has won a great victory. It''s not impossible to wait one more day.

 Chapter 1107

    In the palace, Li Shimin immediately went straight to the Lizheng palace after leaving the early Dynasty. As a husband and wife for many years, whenever there was a major wedding, he would get used to sharing it with the eldest grandson queen.


    "Father!"


    As soon as Li Shimin returned to the legislative palace, he heard an urgent voice.


    Li Shimin didn''t have to look back. He knew it was his baby daughter Changle. At present, Changle was a little jealous. I''m afraid there was only one reason why Changle came to the palace at this time, that is to inquire about Merton.


    "It''s really a bad girl!" Li Shimin sighed up to the sky.


    The empress changsun could not help smiling. When Changle came, she naturally knew the news of Gaochang victory and was in a good mood.


    Princess Changle was not shy, and said calmly: "father, since Gaochang won the victory, Merton should be all right!"


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "what can he do without him? Don''t worry, this boy can do it. He can''t stop anywhere!"


    Princess Changle''s eyes lit up when she heard the speech. She immediately knew that Merton must have done something terrible in Gaochang.


    "Grandpa Huang, just tell her about her father!" Martha came forward and spoiled Li Shimin''s leg.


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down. He held Martha in his arms and slowly told Merton''s achievements in Gaochang.


    "Break the city with one blow." empress changsun and Princess Changle opened their mouths. Although mojiazi had promised to break the city with one blow in the court for a long time, they thought it was just an exaggeration, when mojiazi really did it, they realized that what mojiazi said was really an attack and broke the Gaochang city wall.


    "Yeah! I knew my father was the best." Martha shouted when she heard his father was so powerful.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling bitterly. Once in his daughter''s eyes, he was also the most powerful in the world. However, Martha didn''t know the meaning of breaking the city. Martha''s words were not a daughter''s worship, but a fact.


    Even Li Shimin was frightened when he heard the news of breaking the city. For thousands of years, the city walls all over China have performed miracles one after another. However, now the strongest defensive city wall finally has an opponent.


    "It''s a great thing. In addition, it''s rare for Changle to enter the palace. We''ll get together today." empress changsun said softly. Since Merton went out with the army, Princess Changle sat in the Mo house and was pregnant, she rarely entered the palace. It''s rare to see her today. Naturally, empress changsun is very happy.


    "This is really a good thing!" Li Shimin nodded solemnly. In his opinion, the better thing is that powerful weapons are in the hands of Datang. If they fall into the hands of neighboring countries, Li Shimin may not even sleep well. After all, Datang has too many cities.


    Soon, hearing that Changle entered the palace, Li Chengqian and other brothers and sisters also came one after another. There was a lot of laughter in the legislative hall. This time, Princess Changle and Martha undoubtedly became the focus of the audience, and it was Merton''s shocking blow that brought all this.


    With the end of the court meeting, the news about the battle of Gaochang quickly spread among the people. The originally calm people stirred up thousands of waves like a stone and fried the pot in an instant.


    "Mojiazi smashed the city!" everyone smacked. Gaochang victory was well deserved for them. However, mojiazi''s smashing the city shocked the whole Chang''an city like thunder.


    Although the legend of Mohism has been common, this time it really scared everyone.


    "Really? That''s Gaochang City, the most powerful city in the western regions. It''s said that it was built after Chang''an city." they questioned. After all, the city wall has been the strongest defense since ancient times.


    "That''s true, of course. It''s said that at the order of the Mohist school, the Gaochang city wall was like pieces of paper, which exploded into two pieces, and the broken stones and bricks scattered tens of feet around." a person familiar with the matter said proudly.


    People can''t help but take a breath. Since ancient times, there has been no way to make the city wall collapse, that is, the flood overflows the city. However, the conditions for success are extremely harsh, and it takes months to see the results. However, the Mohist school only needs one blow to break the city and make the city wall collapse in an instant.


    Since the return of the messenger, more and more details have been circulated. However, the more details spread, the more shocked the whole Chang''an city.


    "It is said that Gaochang city may not be able to capture even if tens of thousands of people are sacrificed, but the mojiazi broke the city with one blow, and one person can reach tens of thousands of troops!" murmured a common man in Chang''an city.


    At this point, do or think the same without prior consulation2 of Wan Jun''s rumors, but no one questioned this time, and it was recognized by all people.


    In addition, the Mohist family created the Mohist hat, braved the snow to travel, attacked the snow and went skiing. It also created a wind mill at Yumen pass, which once again verified the concept of transforming the power of heaven and earth. Even the Mohist family carried a waterwheel to rescue 100000 soldiers. For a moment, the popularity of the Mohist family in Chang''an City directly overshadowed the victory of Gaochang.


    Some people even said directly that there were Mohists and gunpowder. It would be strange if they lost.


    On the bright side, the information about Mohism is hot in the whole city, while on the dark side, the information about Mohism is moving secretly.


    In a secret room outside Chang''an City, faint candlelight flickered, and the figures of three well-off people flickered in the candlelight.


    "The great victory of Gaochang, the Mohist school is expected to come back soon. Let''s discuss it!" a middle-aged man''s voice suddenly said.


    "Once the Mohist family returns to the Tang Dynasty, the Mohist family with so many Mohist skills will certainly expand again. Today''s Mohist family has become a climate. If we don''t act, I''m afraid it will become a disaster in the future." an old man''s voice said fiercely.


    The rise of Mohism has violated too many interests, and even set off a new round of contention among a hundred schools of thought. There is a hidden trend to reshuffle the Tang Dynasty, which makes a group of vested interests extremely uneasy. However, the Mohism is extremely tenacious, even though it is repeatedly suppressed, it is still tenacious, and even grows rapidly. Li Shimin supports it behind its back and connives at the Mohism to stir up the wind and rain.


    "In my opinion, the Mohist school has made great contributions to today''s Mohist school. Without Mohist school, the so-called Mohist revival is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water." a young voice hummed coldly. Anyone can see that Mohist school plays a key role in the revival of Mohist School and even the contention of a hundred schools of thought.


    The three men were silent for a while, and suddenly said in the same voice: "Mohist must die!"


    "However, Mozi can''t die in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise none of us can fall behind, and we will face the end of being liquidated by his majesty." the middle-aged man frowned. Mozi is the leader of the Mozi family and the son-in-law of Princess Changle, not to mention his important contribution to the Tang Dynasty, which is deeply valued by Li Shimin. Once Mozi dies, it will immediately cause an uproar, It will even lead to the Revenge of the Mohists and the liquidation of Li Shimin. The best result is to let the Mohists die outside the Tang Dynasty. In this way, they can get rid of themselves.


    "Hateful, no one thought that the firearm prison should be so powerful. The army has calmed Gaochang in such a short time, otherwise we have plenty of opportunities to let mojiazi die in the battle of Gaochang." the old man lamented that there are no eyes on the battlefield. When he went to the battlefield, mojiazi has three advantages and two disadvantages, and no one has evidence.


    The young voice sneered: "don''t worry. News has come from ludongzan. As long as we create an opportunity to leave mojiazi alone, Tubo will certainly cut mojiazi outside Yumen pass."


    If someone is here, there will be an uproar. No one thought that the people of Datang would conspire with the enemy and betray the country in order to murder their own people.


    As for Lu Dongzan''s purpose of killing mojiazi so actively, they naturally know that mojiazi is cracking the secret of altitude reaction, which they told Lu Dongzan, and secondly, for the gunpowder secret skill in the hands of mojiazi.


    These people are so crazy that they don''t hesitate to damage the interests of the whole Datang for their own power.


    "It''s not difficult to leave the Mohists alone! The 100000 troops can''t triumph at the same time. First, the situation in Gaochang is unstable, and some people need to be left to frighten the Western Turks. Second, the Gobi Desert two thousand miles away is not allowed to return at the same time." the middle-aged man analyzed.


    "As long as we disclose the news of Princess Changle''s pregnancy, I believe that of course, there will be people who specialize in advising the Mo family to come back first, and what we have to do is try our best to promote this and let the Mo family lead the firearms supervisor to triumph." the old man said ruthlessly.


    "Wouldn''t it be easy for Tubo to take down the firearms prison of only a thousand people led by mojiazi? This time, mojiazi is doomed." the young voice said easily.


    The three nodded slightly and disappeared into the night.

 Chapter 1108

    When mojiazi was hotly debated in the whole city, the whole court was secretly congratulating themselves for the victory of Gaochang. After all, everyone knew what the risk was, and all officials felt extremely happy. Ironically, mojiazi was the greatest hero of the Gaochang war, and he made the Gaochang war end so quickly. However, at the moment, mojiazi became the object of suspicion of all officials.


    Mojiazi has also been mentioned many times in the court. Of course, it is not worship but fear. After all, such a powerful killing weapon is only in the hands of mojiazi, which makes some people uneasy for both public and private. In addition, mojiazi has established a lot, which vaguely forms a situation of suspicion about mojiazi and firearms prison,


    But now it is the day of celebration of Gaochang''s great victory. At this time, it will only make meritorious officials cold, which did not break out immediately, but the undercurrent has been choppy.


    Therefore, on the bright side, the whole Tai Chi hall is still happy.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. Gaochang''s great victory. Our great Tang Dynasty''s reputation will certainly shake the western regions."


    "So far, the silk road has been unblocked again, and the world has benefited from it. We all miss your Majesty''s grace."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the court hall, ministers complimented each other. When the news of Gaochang''s victory came, the clouds on the heads of all officials immediately cleared away.


    "It''s up to all the officers and men to serve their lives. When the army comes back, I will give it a big reward." Li Shimin said with a smile and contentment. He didn''t look sad two days ago.


    "Thank you, your majesty, for the officers and men." a group of generals bowed down.


    "I didn''t want to start a military, but Ju Wentai went against the sky, so I had to set things right." Li Shimin said modestly.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the ministers congratulated.


    After Li Shimin accepted the praise of the officials, he remembered the business of today''s court meeting. Lang said, "now the Tang Dynasty has captured the whole territory of Gaochang, and Qu Zhisheng, king of Gaochang, has been arrested. I don''t know what you Aiqing think should be done with Gaochang."


    Linghu Dehui, the Minister of rites, took the lead in saying: "I inform your majesty that there was a precedent before the Tang Dynasty. I think after the Tang Dynasty attacked Tuyuhun, he returned with his head and finally established Murong Shun as the king of Tuyuhun. Now Ju Wentai, the chief villain of Gaochang, is dead. According to the usual practice, Qu Zhi Sheng should be appointed to the throne to show the grace of his Majesty''s heavenly Khan, and Gaochang can also compliment the frontier of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Set up another king and guard the frontier!" Li Shimin''s eyes flashed. This is indeed the practice of Datang in the past. In this way, Datang can save time and effort, and the effect is very good, which is enough to make the frontier stable for decades.


    "This method is also feasible?" many ministers echoed.


    However, Kong Yingda frowned and took the initiative to oppose: "I think it''s inappropriate for me to establish another king. Qu Zhisheng is different from Murong Shun. Murong Shun was originally the son of Princess Guanghua, with half of the blood of Han people. In addition, he has been a proton in Chang''an for many years and has been deeply influenced by Chinese culture. More importantly, he was depressed and frustrated when he was taken the crown prince in Tuyuhun. His majesty established him as the new king of Tuyuhun. Murong Shun is grateful to his majesty. And Qu Zhi Although Sheng''s mother was granted the title of Princess by Yang Guang, she was not a Han Chinese. In addition, she did not become a proton in the Tang Dynasty and did not understand Chinese culture. Moreover, she had already ascended the throne of King Gaochang. Her Majesty granted her the title of King Gaochang again without mercy. How could this person have a heart for the Tang Dynasty? "


    The ministers nodded one after another. At this point, Qu Zhisheng is indeed far inferior to Murong Shun. Although Murong Shun is incompetent, he is really loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and Qu Zhisheng, who has always been a native, is not necessarily.


    Linghu Deyu frowned and said, "in that case, let Qu Zhisheng abdicate and set up a new king, the son of Ju Wentai. As Weichen knows, Ju Wentai has several children and will certainly be grateful to his majesty."


    Kong Yingda shook his head and sighed, "what about an emperor who is grateful to the Tang Dynasty? Although Murong Shun is not in a different place now, even if a new king is established in Gaochang, his subordinates are not satisfied. Murong Shun is just a lesson from his past."


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. This time, Tuyuhun was attacked by Tubo and murongshun''s subordinates inside and outside. Don''t forget to sing, but there is still a West Turk who is very hostile to Datang and will not repeat murongshun''s tragedy. At that time, will Datang send troops again? The risk of Datang sending troops to Gaochang is enough to make Li Shimin fear.


    "What does Kong Aiqing mean?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked.


    Kong Yingda said proudly, "from the perspective of Wei ministers, the Tang Dynasty should follow the example of the Han Dynasty and reset the capital protector of the western regions."


    "The western regions capital guard!"


    Suddenly, the officials were in an uproar. Naturally, the officials knew the famous western region capital protector, and they soon talked about it. Moreover, the benefits of implementing the western region capital protector were obvious. In this way, Gaochang could be directly under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, so as to avoid the lesson of throwing grain and turning over again.


    "I didn''t expect that the noble Confucius family also intended to destroy a country for their own personal interests. Do you know how serious the consequences would be if the Tang Dynasty destroyed Gaochang. In this way, all the countries around the Tang Dynasty will be vigilant and guard against the Tang Dynasty, and your Majesty''s reputation of Tian Khan will be illusory." Linghu dehu said sarcastically that everyone knows that Kong Yingda''s active desire to destroy Gaochang is to cooperate with homonymy to promote Confucian enlightenment and raise the reputation of Confucianism. In this way, Confucianism and the Confucius family benefit, but Datang has lost its reputation, especially Li Shimin''s reputation of Tian Khan, which may be damaged.


    Li Shimin frowned when he heard the speech. Tian Khan is his most proud name. Li Shimin, who loves false fame and intends to wash his stain, naturally attaches great importance to it.


    Kong Yingda was unafraid and said, "Wei minister''s move is indeed a little selfish, but it can be said that he has a clear conscience. The purpose of setting up the western region capital protector in the Western Han Dynasty is to coordinate the contradictions among the western regions and protect the silk road. Now, China''s Tang Dynasty also needs to make the western regions countries live in peace and make the silk road smooth. Naturally, the Tang Dynasty should also set up the western region capital protector."


    Many ministers nodded that the of the silk road was too important for the Tang Dynasty, but it was related to the stability of the currency system of the Tang Dynasty. Now the large-scale emergence of cotton cloth has greatly impacted the role of silk and other silk products as money. Fortunately, the Tang silk system designed by Merton allowed a large amount of silk to the western regions, and the silk price did not collapse, which made the monetary policy of the Tang Dynasty soft.


    However, for a long time, Datang must maintain the silk price in order to slowly peel the silk from the monetary system. It can be said that the silk road is not just a problem of silk, but has the mission of stabilizing Datang''s monetary policy. It can be said that the silk road cannot be lost. In this way, setting up the western region capital guard in Gaochang is far more in the interests of the Tang Dynasty than setting up another king.


    Li Shimin immediately fell into a tangle. On the one hand, it was his reputation of tiankhan and on the other hand, it was the practical interests of Datang, which really made it difficult for him to choose.


    Linghu de frowned and said: "Gaochang is thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty, but also two thousand miles away from the Gobi desert. Coupled with its weak national strength, it is not enough to feed the army. I think at the beginning, the Han Dynasty did not spend less money and food to protect the government in the western regions, and even couldn''t bear the burden. It fought repeatedly and became a burden for the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, the great achievements will be great and the lessons of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will be in front of us."


    According to Linghu Dechen, Gaochang is poor and it is not worth spending so much to set up the capital guard of the western regions. Setting up a new king can not only smooth the Silk Road, but also minimize the burden of the Tang Dynasty. Why not? At the beginning, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to issue the Luntai imperial edict, which was completely abandoned in the later period.


    If it had been before, Kong Yingda would certainly have the same view as Linghu dehu. However, with the rise of Mohism, Confucianism must forge ahead, and Gaochang is the best experimental place to verify homonymy, not to mention the great benefits of setting up a capital guard in the western regions. Kong Yingda will not give up for both public and private.


    Kong Yingda thought of an allusion in the Han Dynasty, and Lang said: "Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gave up the western regions, his successor Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty inherited the legacy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and set up a capital guard of the western regions in Luntai to contact the countries of the western regions, which laid the foundation for the final defeat of the Xiongnu. Now, Western Turks are eyeing the western regions in the Tang Dynasty. Your majesty set up a capital guard of the western regions, so you can follow the example of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty and contact the countries to fight against western Turks, otherwise Gaochang will happen It will happen again. "


    I have to sigh that the history is surprisingly similar. Now the situation of the Tang Dynasty is so similar to that of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. Li Shimin finally became excited and finally preferred to set up the capital protector of the western regions. After all, face seems to be less important in the face of the old enemy of the Western Turks.


    "Hou Junji was ordered to set up a capital protectorate in Gaochang City, but it was not the capital protectorate of the western regions, but the capital protectorate of Anxi," Li Shimin said.


    When the officials were shocked, they immediately knew Li Shimin''s intention. I''m afraid Anxi here doesn''t mean stabilizing the western regions, but stabilizing the Western Turks!

 Chapter 1109

    After setting the tone, the imperial court immediately prepared to send messengers to Gaochang to convey the appointment of anxidu protectorate in Gaochang, and then set out.


    "The journey from Lanzhou to Chang''an city is the easiest and fastest. You can ride a horse during the day and take a bus at night. The fastest way is to travel thousands of miles a day." in Chang''an post station, three messenger of victory proudly described their wonderful journey to the public, which attracted the admiration of many people.


    "Traveling thousands of miles a day!" many people couldn''t help but exclaim. The fastest speed they experienced was the express carriage in Mojia village. It was 800 miles from Chang''an city to Luoyang City. It was not impossible to travel thousands of miles a day if they continued to travel at night.


    "Although there are post stations along the way from Lanzhou to Yumen pass, they can only ride horses. Moreover, the post stations are quite far away, but at least there is a hot meal and a place to rest. The real difficulty is to get out of Yumen pass, especially the two thousand mile Gobi. It is the most difficult journey. One person must ride three times, bring enough water and food and grass, and pass at the fastest speed, otherwise once there is water shortage or get lost, That''s a dead end. "The three people immediately exclaimed when they talked about the hardships on the road.


    The three looked at each other and couldn''t help feeling proud. The appointment of the imperial court had just come. This time, the three of them took the mission to convey the imperial court''s orders. However, they naturally didn''t have to hurry for 800 Li. They took a day off and continued to leave early tomorrow morning.


    "The three heroes have worked hard."


    "Please tell the story of the Mexican family''s attack on the city again."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There are many business trips in Chang''an post station, which can''t help encouraging them one after another.


    The first messenger of victory could not help showing a trace of pride. These two days, he didn''t know how many times he had told the Mexican family to break the city, and each time he could cause bursts of cheers.


    "Since the beginning of the western expedition, mohou has made many miracles. First, he created mohou hat............................." after paving up the legendary deeds of the western expedition, the messenger who reported the victory immediately attracted everyone''s attention. Until the last time he broke the city, he immediately let a group of business travelers shout wonderful. After a long time, he left reluctantly.


    After they left, the three messengers got up and went back to the post station to prepare. After all, they were going to start early tomorrow morning to deliver the letter to Gaochang again.


    "Three strong men, wait a minute!" when the three were ready to go back, an old man in ink suddenly appeared in front of the three.


    "What''s the matter with the old man?" the three turned back and said in surprise.


    The old man in Mo Fu respectfully said, "the three heroes raise the prestige of our young master. The Mohists are grateful again."


    Upon hearing that it was a Mohist, the messenger who reported the victory in the first place quickly said in awe: "it was a Mohist elder. We just told the truth. If it weren''t for the Mohist marquis to decide the world at one stroke, we might still be fighting in such a hot place as Gaochang!"


    The old man in Mo Fu arched his hands and said, "I came here today to ask for something. You may not know that Princess Changle is pregnant. Now Gaochang has decided. If my young master can come back early, maybe he can catch up with the princess''s production. Please send a letter to the young master on behalf of the Mohist school."


    The old man in ink took out three stacks of silver notes and slipped them into the hands of the three messengers.


    At a glance, the three suddenly knew that there were at least dozens of silver tickets, each of which was one or two, but the chief messenger refused without hesitation: "it''s our honor to admire Marquis Mo and deliver good news to Marquis mo. how can we receive this money again."


    The old man of Mo Fu advised them three times again. The three men were struggling. Before they left, the old man of Mo Fu was still full of praise and said, "the three are really strong men. The Mohist school must remember the kindness of the three."


    After the old man of Mo Fu left, the messenger on one side counted the silver tickets with joy and said, "there are twenty silver tickets. Indeed, the Mojia village is rich and powerful. We didn''t gain so much at such a great risk in the western regions."


    The first messenger frowned and said coldly, "are you trying to die? You''re talking nonsense."


    The messenger on one side stopped talking. Although their looting in Gaochang is an open secret of Gaochang, no one can eat it if it reaches the ears of the imperial court.


    "Marquis Mo is our colleague''s robe. It''s just a matter of lifting a hand to pass on a message. It would be great if we could make a good relationship with Marquis mo. however, we still need to be careful. We need to confirm whether the news is true before we can send it." the first messenger shouted coldly.


    The two people immediately felt a chill in their hearts. If they passed on false news, I''m afraid they won''t have enough to eat and go.


    "You two go to inquire and see if Princess Changle is really pregnant with Liujia." the chief messenger ordered.


    They hurried away and soon brought back the exact news that Princess Changle was indeed pregnant. The chief messenger nodded slowly and all his doubts disappeared.


    All this is naturally seen by the people in the dark. Although there are some waves in the process, the result is more real.


    The next day, the three messengers who reported their success set foot on the post horse again and galloped West with the order of the imperial court. Later, among the officials of the capital guard, they also learned that Princess Changle was pregnant with Liujia and hoped that mojiazi would return before production. Naturally, the officials elected as the capital guard understood it.


    Then this view spread quickly, and even Princess Changle and empress changsun were full of this view.


    "In terms of the old man, the royal highness of the princess is coming soon, and the house of Mexico is not in charge, so it is proper for the prince to come back in advance.


    "That''s right. Besides, the Gaochang war has ended. The son-in-law has made great contributions. It''s reasonable to return to the dynasty in advance."


    "Yes, there are so many risks in having children. How can it be done without a man around?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Almost all the dignitaries and ladies who have met Princess Changle and empress changsun hold this view and urge Mojia village to come back first. For a moment, the conspiracy about Mojia Zi is quietly spreading among the government and the public.


    "Merton is fighting for his country. Now the army has not returned, how can he return without permission."


    "Now that there is a maternal and child hospital, the risk of giving birth to children is very low. Changle alone is enough."


    Fortunately, empress changsun and Princess Changle still have some sense and politely refuse, but everyone thinks they are kind-hearted, but they don''t know that good intentions can also do bad things.

 Chapter 1110

    Under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, Gaochang, which had just been occupied, was like a stagnant water. In this way, the news that mojiazi had built a shady house in Gaochang, which was widely received by grapes, immediately became the focus. Gaochang local people and 100000 Tang troops were paying attention to this matter, and everyone was paying attention to whether Tangtang mojiazi could create another miracle and create raisins.


    For Gaochang local people, although they are dissatisfied with mojiazi''s intention to move the wine making workshop, mojiazi is generous and buys grapes with cash. In addition, the reputation of Mohist school made people look forward to raisins.


    As for the Tang army, the success of the Mo family''s extensive distribution of money is unknown, but at least it has benefited some fruit farmers. The looting of the Tang army was too bad. Merton''s move has the advantage of soothing people''s hearts, so Hou Junji turned a blind eye to it.


    However, it has been more than a month in a flash. More and more shadow houses have been built, more and more grapes have been purchased, and more and more money has been spent. Almost everyone is looking forward to it. What a miracle the so-called raisins are, which makes mojiazi pay so much attention to it.


    "Forty days!" outside a shady room, Merton solemnly took a deep breath into his airway. According to the methods of later generations, raisins should be almost 40 days.


    Behind him, Zhang Mu and the old winemaker couldn''t help wondering. They saw with their own eyes a string of fresh grapes put into the shade room. However, after 40 days, they almost ignored it. I''m afraid the fruit that can be put again has deteriorated, not to mention the delicate fruit like grapes.


    "Open it!" Merton reached out and waved.


    Suddenly, several winemakers personally came forward to open the closed door of the shade room. When they saw the grapes in the shade room, they couldn''t help frowning. The first-class grapes that were as big as ox eyes had shrunk like jujube stones.


    "These are raisins, can you still eat?" the winemakers frowned, but the only good news is that these raisins have no smell or decay, and they seem to have an attractive fragrance.


    "As like as two peas, the same as the next generation, the Merlin is not a sign of joy. The raisins from the Turpan basin are still excellent delicacies.


    Merton picked up a bunch of raisins and filled them in his mouth without washing. They were immediately sweet and delicious. There were very chewy raisins filled with taste buds. This was a rare pure natural green food. Most of the raisins in later generations were quick-made. They were sprayed with quick drying agent and dried in the sand. They were quick-made in more than ten days, with a lot of sediment and chemicals, If you don''t wash, you can''t enter at all.


    Seeing this, the others tried to pick up a raisin and put it in their mouth. They were instantly conquered by the sweet taste.


    "It''s not bad. It''s still edible. It tastes good and chewy."


    "It''s very sweet. It''s much sweeter than grapes. It''s like icing honey!"


    "In such hot weather, it''s not bad for forty days. It can be seen that it''s enough for long-term preservation. The granular form is easy to carry and transport. It''s more than enough to transport from Gaochang to Datang."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone nodded as they spoke about the advantages of raisins. Such delicious raisins, coupled with the convenience of transportation and preservation, can be said to be the most perfect goods, which can have a broader market than the wine that is not easy to transport.


    After all, the production process of wine is cumbersome and the market is narrow. Only the upper class can afford wine. However, raisins are not. Even civilians can afford it. In addition, relying on the huge market of Datang, raisins alone can make Gaochang rich.


    "Thank you, mohou! We are convinced." the old winemaker said sincerely. Mohaizi is worthy of the name of turning stone into gold. Wine can be brewed anywhere in the world, but raisins are unique. Only Gaochang''s special geographical environment can make raisins.


    Merton laughed and said, "this is a win-win thing. From now on, raisins that are convenient for transportation in Gaochang will certainly sell well in Datang, while grape wine that is inconvenient for transportation can take root in Datang."


    As long as the problem of wine transportation is solved, the price of wine will drop greatly. I believe it can go into thousands of households and benefit the world.


    The old winemaker suddenly reminded: "tell mohou that Gaochang grape wine is famous all over the world. In addition to the wine making technology, another important reason is that Gaochang''s grapes are the best in the world. If there are no excellent grapes, even if there is wine making technology, I''m afraid it can''t make top-grade grape wine."


    Merton nodded and said, "naturally, I know that the reason why Mohist''s solution to Qianchou is the best wine in the world is that the raw material used is the best sorghum on the Tubo plateau. However, you can rest assured that I happen to know that there is a place in Datang that is most suitable for grape growth. It is a top-grade grape base, which can certainly make the best wine."


    Merton thought of a famous holy land of wine in the future. He could certainly reproduce it even a thousand years in advance.


    The winemakers were relieved that with superior raw materials, they would be able to brew superior grape wine. In addition, they could follow mojiazi to survive in the Central Plains, and their resistance disappeared.


    When Merton saw that the wine workshop had been solved, he waved his hand and said, "take all the raisins in this shady room and give them to the troops to taste."


    "Yes!" they immediately started together and soon gathered up the raisins in the whole Yin room and took them away.


    Seeing the departure of mojiazi, the winemakers looked back at the wine workshop and were disappointed. From now on, they are afraid to start a new life in Datang.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The continuous high temperature in Gaochang continued, and the whole basin was like a stove. Let alone marching and fighting, it was motionless and soon sweating.


    "It''s a terrible weather!" Hou Junji splashed cold water on his body, which suddenly relieved the heat a little.


    "General, eat some grapes. The last general has just frozen them from the well." Xin liao''er came to Hou Junji''s Chinese army tent with a large plate of grapes in his hand and flattered.


    Hou Junji couldn''t help but brighten his eyes when he heard the speech. He laughed and said, "you still know me!"


    Now that the war is over, the generals have nothing to do. Coupled with the hot and dry weather, the greatest pleasure is to be able to eat the cool and thirst quenching Gaochang melons and fruits.


    "I have to say that although Gaochang is very hot, the melons and fruits are first-class." Hou Junji praised and felt a little more comfortable with a bunch of grapes.


    "This is not the best grape yet. The best grape has no grape seeds. Unfortunately, it''s all sacrificed by mo. it''s a natural thing to make raisins." Xin liaoer spit out a few grape seeds to provoke him.


    Hou Junji frowned, but did not say anything. After all, mojiazi did sweep away all the grapes without grape seeds.


    Suddenly, a herald came in a hurry and reported to Hou Junji: "tell the general, Mo Jijiu sent someone to send a batch of raisins for the general to taste."


    "Mohist''s raisins succeeded!"


    Xin liao''er''s face stiffened. He had just slandered mojiazi, and in the twinkling of an eye, mojiazi made raisins. It was too fast.

 Chapter 1111

    "Raisins!"


    When raisins were sent to the armies of the Tang Dynasty, the unique delicacy immediately conquered everyone''s taste buds. What makes people more excited is the broad market contained in raisins. Even a person who has no business mind knows that once raisins are transported to the mainland, they will be all the rage.


    The Mohist family has already had the secret skill of weaving and emptied the wine workshop in Gaochang. Now there is another raisin whose value is not inferior to the secret skill of wine. In this way, the benefits obtained by the Mohist family are too great, even far from the point of looting by the generals.


    It''s strange to say that at the beginning, the generals were worried when Mohist Zi didn''t take a word. Now, Mohist Zi took three secret skills at once. The harvest was so great that people smacked their tongue, and the generals were jealous.


    The generals thought that they took such a big risk to get that little money, and the Mohist son obtained such great benefits openly. He was immediately extremely unbalanced. However, they may not be able to get involved in the textile secret skills or wine secret skills, but everyone will naturally buy raisins. Anyone can see the broad prospects of raisins in Datang, For a while, driven by the intentional people, the plan of secretly seizing raisins reached a tacit understanding among the generals.


    As night fell, the heat of the day slowly receded, and the generals of the Chinese army gathered. Only this time was the time for the Tang army to discuss affairs. During the day, there was no way to stay indoors.


    Hou Junji looked at the gathering of the generals and nodded with satisfaction. Now the war has stopped. Naturally, there is no need to call the general drum again. However, none of the generals is absent.


    "I don''t know what happened to the general''s summoning place. Is it the news from the imperial court?" Xue Wanjun asked first


    Other generals listened attentively. With the brick road, the news was greatly accelerated. Calculate the day, the imperial court''s order should also come back.


    Hou Junji shook his head and said: "I''ve been to Chang''an City for seven thousand miles, and I''ve been there for fourteen thousand miles at a time. The order of the imperial court came so quickly. Today, I called you to discuss an important matter. Now Gaochang has been settled and the war has ended. A large number of Hu merchants stranded in Yanqi and kuci have come to ask for opening Gaochang and entering the Tang Dynasty. I would have called you to ask you for advice Opinions. "


    Niu JINDA scratched his head and said, "general, this will embarrass us. We are good at marching and fighting. However, we are black in our eyes about Hu Shang!"


    Other generals nodded one after another. First, they didn''t understand business, and second, they didn''t want to get involved in trouble.


    Xin liao''er''s eyes flashed, and Lang said in a loud voice: "general, I''m asking the wrong person. If we want to talk about business, how can we understand it? However, there is a genius in business here. Why don''t the general ask him for advice?"


    As soon as Xin liao''er''s words fell, all the generals immediately focused on the Mohist school. If they wanted to talk about business, it was naturally the Mohist school.


    "Mo sacrificing wine, don''t be modest. What do you think of Hu Shang''s request for entry?" Hou Junji asked.


    Merton reluctantly said, "it''s not difficult to decide about Hu Shang''s entry into the customs. Can the general remember why we sent troops to Gaochang?"


    Hou Junji said without hesitation: "naturally, Gaochang provoked war and blocked the silk road."


    Before Hou Junji finished, he suddenly realized that it was Gaochang who blocked the silk road that they sent troops to Gaochang. Now Gaochang has been settled, so it is natural to open the door to allow Hu merchants to enter the customs and reopen the silk road.


    Merton continued: "however, as far as Mo knows, many Hu merchants also steal, and have a lot of weapons. Both Gaochang and Datang, which have just been settled, are unstable factors. In the end, after Hu merchants enter the customs, they should collect their weapons and everyone can enter the customs only after they register."


    The generals nodded one after another. It was really necessary for Mohist Zi to do this.


    "What if Hu merchants don''t want to?" Xin liao''er frowned. As Mozi said, most Hu merchants are both merchants and thieves. How can they easily put down their weapons and let them be slaughtered.


    Merton spread his hands and said, "I''m sorry. As long as you enter the territory of Datang, you must abide by the rules of Datang."


    The generals couldn''t help laughing contemptuously. They even destroyed Gaochang. They were afraid of Hu Shang''s dissatisfaction. There were 100000 troops. What else can Hu Shang''s dissatisfaction cause?


    "Then, as Mo offered a toast, Hu merchants are allowed to enter Gaochang. However, all cities should strictly control the pass and don''t make any more trouble." Hou Junji''s voice was gloomy and his eyes stared at the generals, warning that there should be no trouble here. I''m afraid it means that in addition to not allowing Hu merchants to have trouble, I''m afraid there should be no trouble for the armies. You know, Hu merchants came thousands of miles away and brought most of the extremely precious goods. If these armies could not help but be greedy and make trouble and destroy the Silk Road, I''m afraid no one could eat them.


    The generals nodded one after another. Naturally, they understood Hou Junji''s warning. Now Gaochang has been destroyed and the silk road is about to be unblocked. Their mission has been successfully completed. They just need to wait for a period of time to return to the Dynasty and reward them based on their achievements. Naturally, there is no need to make any more moths.


    When Hou Junji saw the reaction of the generals, he nodded with satisfaction and then said, "the second thing is about the raisins, the latest masterpiece of mohou."


    "Finally."


    The general''s eyes twinkled and he couldn''t help sitting upright and listening.


    Merton''s heart moved, but there was no action. He quietly watched the generals perform.


    Hou Junji coughed and covered up his embarrassment: "Our army captured Gaochang. However, although Gaochang is known as the most powerful country in the western regions, it is not as good as a county in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid the only thing to take is these melons and fruits. We are willing to offer them to your majesty, but they may have gone bad before they have been transported to Chang''an. Fortunately, the pen of ink sacrifice to the God of wine invented raisins, which are durable and delicious Incomparably, the general suggested that we might as well present this raisin as a tribute to your majesty as a congratulatory gift for the western expedition. What do you think? "


    "Great goodness!" the generals nodded one after another. Naturally, they also tasted raisins and were conquered by them. If they were offered as a tribute, they would certainly add a lot of color.


    Hou Junji turned his head and said to Merton, "I don''t know what the wine of ink sacrifice is like?"


    Taking raisins as a tribute naturally increases the price of raisins. This is a good thing. The Mexican family will not refuse. Besides, this is his original intention. At present, he nodded and said, "this is a good thing, and there will be no objection."


    The generals immediately shifted the topic to raisins and praised their unique delicacy.


    "One thing, please ask Mo to offer wine for help!" Xue Wanjun suddenly stopped and arched his hand to Mo dun.


    Merton nodded in his heart and said, "general Xue has something to say. It must be Mo''s bounden duty."


    Xue Wanjun said: "mohou gave raisins to the soldiers of the whole army to taste. Those bastards were addicted to them all at once. I had to beg mohou and want to bring more back to my relatives. Of course, mohou won''t lose money. Those soldiers are willing to pay."


    When Xue Wanjun finished, other generals nodded in agreement and said that their soldiers were also conquered by raisins and wanted a raisin to be brought back as a specialty.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing. It''s not the soldiers who want to eat. It''s obvious that the generals want it! The food appearance of these generals is too ugly. Without Merton''s consent, they directly divided up the interests of the raisins of the Mohist family. According to the distribution of the generals, there is almost nothing left for the Mohist family.


    Hou Junji, on the other side, did not say anything. It was obvious that he had acquiesced in the behavior of the generals. After all, in their view, the mojiazi had been with them. Since the mojiazi had also benefited from Gaochang, he would not dare to turn his face. He could only obediently let out the raisins and let all the generals share the interests.


    Merton looked around and saw that the generals were silent one after another. He couldn''t help sneering: "in fact, the matter of raisins was originally left to the armies. He didn''t intend to take it as his own. After all, the Mohists generally don''t get involved in farming."


    Although raisins have a broad market, they are genuine agricultural products. Mohism has always been famous for industry. In addition to the just started secret skills of live fish and agriculture, Mohism is indeed rarely involved in agriculture.


    The generals were overjoyed when they heard the speech. In their opinion, it must be the Mohist son''s soft consent. Then his face slowed down and said with a smile: "the ink sacrifice is indeed open and aboveboard. We regard money as dirt. We thank the ink sacrifice for the generals."


    But Merton''s words changed: "you misunderstood. What Mo said to leave to the armies is not to divide the armies, but as the military capital of the armies."


    "What''s the meaning of Mo offering wine?" the generals were stunned and looked at Merton.


    Merton turned to Hou Junji and solemnly said, "if Mo is not unexpected, there is not much military food for 100000 troops!"


    Hou Junji frowned and said, "what does mohou mean? Our army has occupied the whole territory of Gaochang, where there is still a lack of food and grass."


    Merton laughed and said, "our Tang Dynasty has a population of tens of millions and supports only hundreds of thousands of soldiers. A small people in Gaochang even count the nomads in each oasis as no 100000 people. How can we support 100000 troops?"


    Hou Junji nodded helplessly. Although gaochangcheng is the richest country in the western regions, it is still very reluctant to support 100000 troops.


    Merton went on: "Now our army has captured Gaochang, and the results of chaotang''s treatment are no more than two kinds. One is to establish another king in Gaochang, and the other is to set up counties in Gaochang and incorporate it into Datang. However, no matter which kind, Datang will garrison in Gaochang. At present, it is very reluctant to support the Tang army with Gaochang''s financial resources alone. However, with raisins, it is different now."


    "Mohou means to leave the raisins to the soldiers stationed in Gaochang." Hou Junji suddenly said.


    The other generals frowned. Mojiazi meant to confiscate the raisin business. In this way, they could not get any benefits. At present, they repeatedly objected: "it''s ridiculous. Our generals can''t do business like businessmen."


    Merton shook his head and said, "how can this be business? In the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Han Army had difficulty in supplying supplies in the western regions, and they were not all self-sufficient. Since they were all tuntian, why not swallow vineyards that were easier to manage and more valuable."


    "Tun Tian, Tun vineyard!" the generals were not stupid. They didn''t expect that the Mexican family had a big brain hole and directly turned the Tun Tian commonly used by the Han army into a tun vineyard.


    Niu JINDA frowned and said, "what tuntian produces is food, which can be eaten directly by soldiers. Can Tun vineyard let soldiers eat raisins year after year?"


    Other generals nodded one after another and were not optimistic about Tun vineyard.


    Merton explained: "raisins are unique. Only Gaochang''s unique environment can make them. They don''t worry about sales. With money, they are afraid that there is no food to buy."


    The generals could not help but admit that what Mozi said was reasonable. As long as they had money, even if they transported grain from Datang to Gaochang, there were many people.


    "Moreover, according to Mo''s observation, Gaochang''s land is barren, and the grain produced per mu of land is only about 300 kg, while one mu of vineyard can produce 3000 kg of grapes. Six kg of grapes can be made into one kg of raisins, and 3000 kg of grapes is enough to make 500 kg of raisins. You can calculate whether the value of 500 kg of raisins or 300 kg of grain is more expensive." Merton used the most intuitive figures to let the generals calculate the value of the vineyard. Those business travelers who want to buy raisins in Gaochang are loaded with grain when they come and raisins when they go back. They don''t have time to travel back and forth to obtain double profits. Isn''t it a win-win situation.


    The generals were immediately silent. The more they calculated the value of the vineyard, the more they were distressed that mojiazi confiscated the raisin secret skill.


    Merton looked around and said in a loud voice, "once the Tang army is in guangtun vineyard in Gaochang, the value of an acre of vineyard should be ten times that of the field. With the expansion of the vineyard, even if 100000 Tang troops are stationed in Gaochang, they can be self-sufficient. I believe your majesty will be more satisfied with this tribute."


    The generals will understand that Merton''s tribute is not just raisins, but the whole raisin secret skill.


    Hou Junji took a deep breath and said, "mohou has a heart. Thank you for your service."


    Although the generals were reluctant, they had nothing to do. After all, the Mohists took the secret skill of raisins as a tribute, and they could no longer intervene.


    Merton could not help smiling knowingly. Naturally, he understood the importance of Gaochang more than everyone else. However, the western regions were too far away. It had always been a heavy burden for all dynasties to garrison troops in the western regions. Now with raisins, the Tang army could be self-sufficient.


    Moreover, Merton is also a kind of compensation. After taking away the craftsmen from Gaochang, he gave Gaochang the secret skill of raisins. Since then, Gaochang will focus on the agriculture represented by melons and fruits and the business travel of Hu merchants on the Silk Road, which can not only provide food, grass and garrison expenses for Datang, but also pose no threat to Datang. Instead, he will rely on Datang and can no longer be separated from Datang, This is the real way to conquer Gaochang,

 Chapter 1112

    "The silk road has reopened."


    When the news came from Gaochang, almost the whole western region was a sensation.


    Since the Tang Dynasty and Gaochang became enemies, Gaochang has directly blocked the silk road. Hu merchants on the silk road either go home directly or stay in Yanqi, kuci and other countries.


    These Hu merchants on the Silk Road who stayed in Yanqi, kuci and other countries are in a dilemma. Most of them come across thousands of miles and return home. Naturally, they are unwilling, but the reopening of the silk road is far away.


    Not to mention that Gaochang and Datang are at war again. It''s good if Datang wins. If it loses


    They were already discouraged and thought that this time the Silk Road did not know how long it would be interrupted, but they did not expect that it would end so soon, and the winning party was Datang.


    Hu merchants were overjoyed. However, they often sent people to Gaochang to test. However, Gaochang, which is not stable, has been closed. Now, hearing the news that Gaochang is open and the silk road is reopened, it is natural that everyone cheered and blocked the Silk Road for a year again.


    Hu merchants set up camel teams that had been idle for a year, carried heavy bags and goods, dug up their buried treasures, and stepped on the camels to the East. They had only one goal, that is, Datang.


    When they arrive at that magical country, there is a beautiful silk with wealth everywhere and weights such as gold. As long as they can get the silk and return smoothly, they can get thousands of times in return and become the superior of their own country. This is also the reason why there are still countless Hu merchants taking risks even though the silk road is dangerous.


    Under the yellow sand, the camel bells are melodious! As camel teams appeared in Gaochang City, waves appeared again in the originally dead Gaochang City, and then it became more and more lively. Gaochang City, the Pearl of the Silk Road, once again exuded dazzling brilliance.


    "What, hand in your weapons!"


    Outside Gaochang City, accompanied by the camel bell, a camel team of dozens of people came to Gaochang city. When they heard that the Tang army was going to turn in their weapons, they cheered one after another. One by one, they held machetes and watched the Tang army guarding outside Gaochang city with vigilance. You know, they met sand thieves and corrupt officials who suck blood more than sand thieves all the way, and finally defended them with their weapons.


    "It''s impossible? We''ve been to Gaochang many times and have never been asked to turn in weapons." Baden, the leader of the Hu merchant team, said in a broken Chinese voice.


    "That was Gaochang before. Now it belongs to the Tang Dynasty. We should follow the rules of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise Gaochang will be the best end." the Tang army guarding the city smiled coldly and pointed to the wall road not far away.


    Baden''s leader turned his head and his face changed. He saw that the Gaochang city wall not far away was suddenly missing. Although there were bricklayers repairing the city wall, it was only about two feet high. The five foot high city wall was still three feet short.


    "Destroy the city with one blow!" Baden took a deep breath and suddenly remembered the news that shocked the whole western region recently, that is, the Tang army attacked Gaochang city with one blow, and the whole western region was terrified.


    Even Gaochang city was destroyed by a blow. Tang Jun never put the machetes in their hands in his eyes. When chin Deng, the leader silently handed over his weapons, and the camel team behind him followed suit.


    After Baden took the camel team into Gaochang City, he carefully looked at the post-war Gaochang city. He saw that Gaochang city was in order and the people in Gaochang street came and went. It didn''t seem to have changed much, so he was relieved.


    What Baden didn''t know was that for a long time, this was the result that Tang Jun could keep his hand, which enabled Gaochang city to be preserved. In addition, Gaochang was calmed down in only two wars, and Gaochang was not greatly damaged.


    "Shopkeeper, what''s the price of Gaochang wine this year?" Baden led the camel team to find a familiar Inn and asked the shopkeeper.


    Hu merchants on the Silk Road did not directly carry a kind of goods to Datang, but took enough of their hometown''s specialties to sell in the next city. After making profits, they bought a batch of local specialties and transported them to the next city. In this way, they can not only meet their livelihood through continuous profits along the way, but also grow the camel team.


    The specialty of Gaochang city is naturally grape wine. This time, Baden came to Gaochang city with the specialty of kuci. He was ready to buy a batch of grape wine to Chang''an City, and finally buy a batch of silk and Datang specialty to return. However, he repeated the sales method, and finally changed all his goods into money and brought them back to his hometown, This is the complete model of the silk road.


    "Wine! There is no wine this year!" but the innkeeper shook his head.


    "No wine?" Baden was stunned and couldn''t believe looking at the innkeeper. He should know that the cargo capacity of the camel team is limited. Most of the selected goods are high-value and easy to carry. Gaochang wine can be sold at a good price when it is transported to Chang''an City, which is a first-class goods.


    The innkeeper nodded and said, "yes, this year''s grapes have been used by mojiazi to make raisins. There is no wine not only today, but also in the future."


    "Raisins! Mojia Zi!" Baden was moved. He wanted to know that after the western region event in Chang''an City, the name of Mojia Zi had already spread all over Chang''an city. He exchanged gold apples of the same size for an apple, and bought all kinds of foreign books at a high price... All western businessmen knew that as long as they could bring what Mojia Zi liked, Getting rich that night is just around the corner.


    When leader Baden thought of the treasures he had collected all the way, his heart moved. If he could attract the attention of mojiazi, wouldn''t he have to go to Chang''an city again? He stopped caring about wine and asked about mojiazi''s whereabouts.


    There were not a few Hu merchants who thought the same as Baden. Soon, a group of Hu merchants found the camp of the firearm prison, and the treasures were placed in front of Merton.


    "It''s all a mess." Merton looked at the treasures in front of him and couldn''t help laughing.


    "Why don''t they all take it away!" Zhang Mu asked.


    Merton said reluctantly, "there are still thousands of gold to buy horse bones. All books and seeds are left. Let them sell other treasures in Chang''an city."


    "Yes, young master!" Zhang Mu nodded and quickly returned some dazzling treasures, leaving only a few humble books and seeds.


    Suddenly, a group of Hu merchants left the treasure in their hands. Only a few books and seeds were bought by Mohist Zi, which made them sad. I think they also collected a lot of seeds, but the silk road has been interrupted for a year and has been broken.


    Now, if the Mohists want to get news from the west, they have to rely on these Silk Road businessmen. He naturally pays a lot of money for some books and seeds that Merton knows, and some books and seeds that he has never heard of, which will definitely make Hu Shang''s trip worthwhile.


    A group of Hu merchants left in disappointment or excitement, and Baden was even more lucky. During the year when the silk road was interrupted, he always gritted his teeth and insisted. Even if he sold out the goods, he didn''t give up books and seeds in the end. Now he finally got rich returns.


    After a group of Hu merchants left, Merton was satisfied to see rolls of sheepskin rolls and seeds. After a year, the silk road was unblocked again. Even if one of these books and seeds was successfully planted in Datang, his efforts today will be rewarded thousands of times.


    While Merton was immersed in his own world, a burst of noise interrupted his thinking. Xue Rengui came in a hurry and said, "Lord sacrifice, the messenger of victory has returned to bring his Majesty''s will. The general summoned all the generals to the Chinese army tent."


    "Your Majesty''s order?" Merton suddenly rose. Now Hu merchants are moving east and Tang Dynasty is moving west. The silk road is completely unblocked without any obstacles.

 Chapter 1113

    When Merton arrived at the big tent of the Chinese army, almost all the generals arrived at the same time. They had left Chang''an City for half a year. Obviously, they were very urgent about the news of Chang''an city.


    Seeing that the generals came one after another, Hou Junji, the leader, nodded and stretched out his hand. The three messengers handed over the sealed documents in their hands. Hou Junji inspected them and opened them in public after confirming that they were correct.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, your majesty is very pleased after our good news reached Chang''an city. He is very satisfied with our rapid calming of Gaochang. After returning to the court, he will certainly reward us on merit." Hou Junji couldn''t help feeling excited when he looked at the court''s documents.


    The generals couldn''t help showing a proud look on their faces. They were so proud that they could calm Gaochang so quickly. Now they were pleased to hear Li Shimin''s praise.


    "This is what the last generals should do." the generals bowed their hands to Chang''an city one after another, but the smile on their faces could not be covered up. Many people began to secretly calculate that after returning to Korea this time, their merit could be promoted to several levels.


    Subsequently, Li Shimin exempted the generals from the imperial edict, and finally mentioned the most important thing, that is, the disposal of Gaochang.


    "Gao Chang secretly provoked border trouble and intended to block the silk road. It was an unforgivable crime. Nian Zai Ju Wentai was dead. Qu Zhisheng had just succeeded to the throne. He was granted a special amnesty and granted Qu Zhisheng general zuowuwei and Duke of Jincheng county. He went to Chang''an city to take office in the DPRK a few days ago." Hou Junji read aloud.


    The generals couldn''t help but frown. What mojiazi said was true. The chaotang either made Gaochang another king or set up counties. It seems that the chaotang chose the second one.


    Sure enough, Hou Junji continued to read: "I want to follow the Han Dynasty and set up a capital guard house in Gaochang, called Anxi capital guard house. In the near future, officials of the capital guard house will rush to Gaochang."


    "Anxi capital guard house!" the generals suddenly understood the meaning of the imperial court. I''m afraid the imperial court didn''t like this barren Gaochang thousands of miles away. The greater reason for setting Anxi capital guard house is to clamp down on Western Turks.


    At the thought of this, people couldn''t help looking at mojiazi more. It''s not for no reason that this boy has become a popular man in the eyes of his majesty. If you want to clamp down on Western Turks, you must station a certain number of troops in Gaochang, which requires a lot of food, grass and military pay. Originally, the court was ready to pay blood, but it didn''t think that mojiazi had paved the way for the court, I''m afraid a secret skill of raisins is enough to solve most of the food and salary problems. It''s a great help to the imperial court!


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the generals said in unison.


    As a military general, he is most afraid of the stability of the world and puts his swords and guns into the warehouse. Now Li Shimin has not stopped conquering Gaochang, but set his goal on the West Turks, which shows that Li Shimin will continue to pay attention to military generals, which is what military generals really value.


    "Since your majesty wants to set up anxidu escort, how about we set the address of anxidu escort in Gaochang city?" Hou Junji suggested.


    "However, Gaochang city is the most powerful city in the western regions. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is indeed the best place for Anxi capital to protect the government." the generals on one side agreed one after another. Nodded in agreement with Hou Junji''s proposal.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "the end general thinks that although Gaochang city is the first male city in the western regions, it is not the best place for anxidu''s palace guard."


    Hou Junji frowned when he heard Merton''s opposition. However, after Merton broke the city with one blow, his obvious status had risen greatly. Even Hou Junji had to pay attention to it. At present, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and asked, "please speak frankly if you have anything to say about the ink sacrifice."


    Merton looked around and said, "we are the winners in Gaochang city. However, no matter what reason we attack Gaochang City, they are all victims and will be hostile to us. Especially in this war, there are not many people killed or injured in Gaochang city."


    Xin liaoer could not help nodding. In the war under Gaochang City, although the Tang army suffered many casualties, the Tang army won. The casualties in Gaochang were at least several times that of the Tang army. The families of the dead and wounded soldiers naturally resented the Tang army.


    "Second, Gaochang city is the most powerful city in the western regions, so Anxi capital guard can''t be chosen here. Once the residence of capital guard is determined, it will certainly become the focus of Gaochang. Gaochang city is already the most powerful city in the western regions and the capital of Gaochang, which has special meaning for the people of Gaochang, so the residence choice of capital guard in the western regions should try to avoid Gaochang city." Merton continued.


    The generals nodded one after another. At present, Gaochang is initially determined. The best way for Datang is to slowly weaken the meaning of Gaochang City, so that it can truly subordinate to Datang.


    "In terms of ink sacrifice, where should the western region''s Du Hu be? Could it be just to choose a small town?" Hou Junji frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "among the twenty-two cities of Gaochang, one city is not inferior to Gaochang, that is Jiaohe City."


    "Jiaohe City." the generals thought of this majestic city. Jiaohe City was originally the capital of Cheshi state, and its city defense is only slightly inferior to Gaochang city.


    Merton said proudly, "yes, it''s Jiaohe City. When our army set out for the war, it was in the name of revenge for the cheshiguo. The general was appointed by his majesty as the chief manager of Jiaohe road army. When the army captured the cities, the people of other cities in Gaochang resisted the Tang army. Only Jiaohe City was grateful to the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that our army won the hearts of the people in Jiaohe City."


    The generals were embarrassed. The hostility of other cities in Gaochang to the Tang army was not only that they destroyed Gaochang, but also their looting.


    "In addition, your majesty naturally positioned the name of the capital guard as Anxi capital guard. Naturally, the closer the city is to the west, the more it can frighten the western countries and Western Turks.


    "I''ll seconded it. Since your majesty has appointed the general as the general manager of Jiaohe River, it''s reasonable for Anxi Du''s guard house to be located in Jiaohe City." Xin Liao Er rarely agrees with the Mo family, and doesn''t forget to flatter Hou Junji again.


    Hou Junji thought carefully and thought of what Tang Jun had done in Gaochang. He not only sighed in his heart, but also made such a comparison. Jiaohe City is indeed the best location of Anxi Du protectorate.


    "In that case, the Anxi capital''s guard house will be located in Jiaohe City." Hou Junji made a firm decision and finally accepted Merton''s proposal.


    "Since chaotang has decided to set up the western regions capital guard, what should qu Zhisheng do?" suddenly Xue Wanjun mentioned another key figure in Gaochang City, Qu Zhisheng, the former king of Gaochang.


    Hou Junji laughed and said, "since the imperial court has granted Qu Zhisheng the title of Jincheng County Duke, we will be colleagues from now on. Naturally, we can''t treat him as before. Come and convey your Majesty''s will to Jincheng County Duke. Don''t wait for him.


    The generals couldn''t help laughing. Naturally, they knew that Qu Zhisheng, the Duke of Jincheng County, was an empty name, and his status was inferior to that of Jieli Khan in those days. If his Majesty was established as the king, they might be afraid of robbing Gaochang. However, now Qu Zhisheng is about to become an official in the DPRK, they can''t turn over any noise at all.


    "The Duke of Jincheng County!"


    In a side hall of Gaochang palace, after Qu Zhisheng got the will of Chang''an City, he couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief and quickly kowtowed to Chang''an City: "thank you for your grace!"


    These days, Qu Zhisheng was extremely frightened. He was afraid that a will would come from Chang''an city to behead him in public. Now the dust finally fell to the ground. After the Tang people left, Qu Zhisheng collapsed to the ground.


    After a long time, he suddenly changed from joy to sorrow, fell on the ground and cried. Gaochang spread the country for more than 100 years. Finally, he became the king of the subjugated country less than a month after Qu Zhisheng reigned.

 Chapter 1114

    "Wait a minute, Mo Hou!"


    After the military discussion, Merton was about to leave. Three messengers suddenly caught up with Merton and bowed.


    "What''s the matter with the three heroes?" Merton looked back and said in surprise. The three messengers came and went for 14000 miles. Even Merton had to admire and call them heroes.


    The messenger who reported the victory in the first place arched his hands and said, "I inform Marquis Mo that we are waiting in Chang''an city. An elder of the Mohist school asked us to send a message to Marquis Mo that Princess Changle has been pregnant for June."


    "Is that true?" Merton was overjoyed at the speech and calculated the day. He left Chang''an City years ago. If Princess Changle was pregnant at that time, it would be right for the day.


    At the thought of this possibility, he wished he could fly back to Princess Changle now. However, he knew that Princess Changle was weak, and it took three years for Princess Changle to conceive again. June of pregnancy was the time to be accompanied.


    "It''s true. My brothers and I inquired about it. The people of Chang''an all know that Princess Changle is pregnant for June. If Marquis Mo goes back now, maybe she can catch up with Princess Changle''s birth?" said Lang, the three messenger of success.


    Merton was excited to hear that Princess Changle was pregnant, but Wen Yan shook his head firmly and said: "How can national affairs be mixed with personal affairs? Now I am in the Sui army''s western expedition to Gaochang. Although the war has ended, it is far from the time of triumph. How can I abandon my colleagues and go back alone to accompany my wife and children to birth? It makes the world laugh. I believe Princess Changle will understand me."


    The Tang army only initially decided on Gaochang city. If there was no big army to suppress it, I''m afraid Gaochang city would have another wave, so Merton did not hesitate to refuse the proposal of the messenger of victory.


    Although he is worried about the safety of Changle and his children, he can also distinguish the importance. In addition, in Chang''an City, he has made sufficient arrangements. The maternal and child hospital has operated for several years, and the success rate of delivery has greatly improved. It doesn''t matter whether he goes back or not.


    In this way, although Merton was worried, he forced his patience, and gave a reward to the three messengers and thanked them very much.


    "Thank you, marquis Mo!" the three messengers not only got benefits, but also had a good relationship with Marquis Mo, so they left with their hands.


    "I''m going to be a father again." Merton roared excitedly after the three messengers left.


    In addition, the tone of the three messengers who reported the victory was not strict. Soon, most of the western expedition army knew that Princess Changle was pregnant, and the generals congratulated Merton one after another. The whole western expedition army was happy.


    Ten days later, the guards of Anxi Du sent by the imperial court finally arrived. When Merton saw the visitor, he couldn''t help sighing. The history was surprisingly similar. The first guard of the western regions was the original one, the son-in-law Du Wei Qiao Shiwang.


    However, Qiao Shiwang''s son-in-law and Merton''s son-in-law are not the same. Qiao Shiwang married Princess Luling, Li Yuan''s daughter, and Merton married Princess Changle. In a word, Merton should call Qiao Shiwang his uncle.


    However, in reality, the situation is the opposite. When Princess Changle is the first princess of the Tang Dynasty, Princess Luling is only an insignificant daughter of Li Yuan, not to mention that today''s Mohist is famous all over the world. It is a world shock to break the city, but teacher Qiao is frustrated. This time, she wasted her great strength to get the position of capital protection in the western regions.


    "Thank you mohou for your help!" said Qiao Shiwang sincerely.


    He originally thought that it would be a hard job to serve as Anxi capital guard. Gaochang is known all over the world for its extremely hot and cold weather. Needless to say, the surrounding environment is more covetous by Western Turks. I''m afraid the newly established Anxi capital guard house must be in a difficult situation.


    Not to mention, anxidu''s guard house is far away from the Tang Dynasty. There are two thousand li of Gobi desert in the middle. It is difficult to supply. He is ready to bear hardships.


    However, when he came to Gaochang, he found that Merton had laid a good foundation for him. When he saw the raisins in the shade rooms and tasted the delicious raisins, his original worry was immediately put into his stomach.,


    With these raisins, and the residence of anxidu''s guard house also chooses Jiaohe City closest to Datang, his life is much better, thanks to Merton.


    "Where, where, this is Mo''s work." Merton said modestly.


    Qiao Shiwang sighed: "mohou''s help is a great help to Qiao. By the way, when he entered the palace some time ago, he just met Changle. Unexpectedly, Princess Changle was pregnant for several months. Congratulations to mohou."


    Merton learned the news of Princess Changle''s pregnancy from the messenger of the good news. Maybe he was still a little suspicious. Now Mr. Qiao said personally that it might be absolutely true. At present, he was helpless to say, "Mo is far away in Gaochang. It''s really hard for Changle."


    "Mohou''s family and country are in a dilemma. I believe Princess Changle can understand it." Qiao Shiwang complimented.


    After greeting Merton for a moment, Qiao Shiwang left. After walking out of the firearm prison, Qiao Shiwang suddenly felt a move in his heart. Merton can be said to help him indirectly several times. Why didn''t he help Merton once? Qiao Shiwang thought for a moment and suddenly turned to Hou Junji''s account of the Chinese army.


    After Qiao Shiwang left, Merton immediately welcomed another familiar guest.


    "Brother Kong!" Merton met his old friend in a foreign country. He didn''t expect to see Kong huisuo in Gaochang. Naturally, he was very happy.


    "Brother mo." Kong huisuo hugged his fist and looked at the dark circle of Merton. He couldn''t help sighing that once they had a similar start, but now the Mexican family is famous all over the world, but he is unknown. It seems that he must catch up.


    "Brother Kong doesn''t want to come thousands of miles. It must be to talk about homonymy." Merton exchanged greetings for a moment and went straight to the subject.


    Kong huisuo nodded and said, "although there are differences in accents in Guanzhong, they can also be understood. The implementation of homonymy is not significant, and Gaochang is the new conquered place of the imperial court, which is the best place to experiment homonymy."


    After learning about the news that the imperial court had set up anxidu palace, Kong huisuo understood that the imperial court would certainly follow the example of the eastern and Western Han Dynasties and govern the western regions. If he wanted to completely annex the western regions, the importance of homonymy would increase day by day. Moreover, he, a son of the Kong family, would surely be put in high position when he came to anxidu palace thousands of miles away. This was the stage for him to show his skills, Not to mention that Confucianism also helps behind the scenes.


    Merton nodded and said, "your decision is correct. Datang will never give up the silk road. In the next step, the western regions will become a must."


    Hearing Merton''s affirmation, Kong huisuo was relieved. Even Merton thought so. Then he was right.


    "However, Kong is still confused about how to start." Kong huisuo said in distress.


    Merton laughed and said, "what''s the difficulty? Who do you think needs to learn Chinese most in the western regions now? Naturally, those Hu merchants who need to do business in Datang."


    "Hu merchants?" Kong huisuo''s eyes lit up. If these Hu merchants want to do business in the mainland, they need to communicate with the Han people. Naturally, they need to speak Chinese.


    "In addition, there are many descendants of the Han people in the western regions. I believe these people will not resist speaking the Han language,......."


    With Merton''s explanation, Kong huisuo suddenly became clear. Now the Anxi capital guard has just been established. It is impossible to promote homonymy in private schools. What Merton said is the best way.


    "Thank you!" Kong huisuo said solemnly. The homonymy is the credit of Confucianism, but Merton did not avoid suspicion and took the initiative to offer advice. This friendship not only moved him.


    Merton Shuanglang said, "you and my brother, why are you polite? Now we are all in Gaochang and have time to get together more."


    Kong huisuo nodded silently, but said in his heart, "brother Mo is sorry. My little brother also wants to get together more. However, I''m afraid I can''t wait there. Let you return to Chang''an City as soon as possible. It''s also my little brother''s reward for you."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Dong Dong Dong!"


    After many days, the drum of the Chinese Army''s big tent sounded again. In the firearm supervisor, Merton suddenly looked up and looked at the direction of the Chinese Army''s big tent. At this time, how could there be a drum? At present, he didn''t dare to hesitate and rushed to the Chinese Army''s big tent immediately.


    After Merton arrived at the Chinese Army''s big tent, several generals had arrived. With the sound of the drum, all the generals arrived, none of them.


    Hou Junji sat on the throne, looked coldly at the generals, and suddenly stood up and said: "Throughout my military life, Lao Tzu followed his majesty to fight the world from the palace of King Qin until the Tang Dynasty unified the world. After countless wars and countless enemies, his soldiers were ordered to fight hard and bleed. However, a strange thing happened in my Chinese Army account recently, which was a strange thing I had never encountered in my life."


    "Strange thing!" the generals frowned. I don''t know what made Hou Junji so angry that he knocked a military drum directly.


    Hou Junji looked around and said coldly, "during this period of time, a man with good hands and eyes, who is in Gaochang, asked people thousands of miles away to come to the general''s Chinese Army''s big account to ask for mercy. Let me take care of him and want him to return to Chang''an City in advance. You say, do you want the general to agree?"


    The generals could not help being silent for a while. How could anyone who could be entrusted to bring words to the big account of the Chinese army be a simple figure? The generals moved in their hearts. Thinking of a recent rumor, they couldn''t help thinking of a suitable person, and immediately kept silent again.


    "If it''s normal, I must let him go to the battlefield first, attack the city and be a scout." Hou Junji looked around and suddenly said with a smile: but now the battle of Gaochang is over, and with such good things, how can our general not be beautiful? "


    "The beauty of becoming a man?" the generals were in an uproar. Unexpectedly, Hou Junji agreed. This is not Hou Junji''s style.


    Immediately, the generals turned their attention to the Mohist family. I''m afraid that the only one who can have such means and motivation to return to Chang''an city is the Mohist family. Now Princess Changle is about to give birth. I''m afraid the Mohist family has already been anxious to go back. It''s their due intention to ask for mercy.


    "This is a good thing. The royal highness of the Royal Highness is soon to be completed. The battle of Gao Chang has ended. There is nothing serious about the return of the ink to Changan." Hou Jun Ji laughed, and suddenly the whole atmosphere of what had been the main battle of the Chinese army was destroyed.


    "However! In the battle of Gaochang, ink sacrificial wine destroyed the city with one blow. Military skill is the first. This is nothing to mention." Xue Wanjun echoed.


    The No. 1 and No. 2 figures of the Tang army have voted, and the generals naturally agree one after another and congratulate Merton.


    However, Merton suddenly stepped out of the line and bowed his hands to the generals: "thank you for your kindness. Mo has taken the lead. However, how can military law be like a child''s play? Our army is on the western expedition. If Mo abandons his fellow robes and goes back to Chang''an city to produce with his wife, how do the generals and men look at it and how do his fellow robes look at it? At the end, he will be willing to return to the dynasty with the army and will never go back to Chang''an City alone."


    The generals were shocked. They didn''t expect that the mojiazi would refuse Hou Junji''s kindness and take the initiative to refuse to return to Chang''an city.


    Hou Junji frowned. If it weren''t for Princess Changle but Li Shimin''s eldest daughter, who had a special status, he didn''t want to meddle in this business. Then he sighed: "the ink sacrifice is indeed open and aboveboard, but I''m afraid you don''t know. Our army will return to the Dynasty. Otherwise, what do you think the general is doing when he hits the drum?"


    "Ban Shi Hui Chao?" Merton was stunned. The generals were also stunned. Unexpectedly, Hou Junji ordered ban Shi Hui Chao at this time.


    Hou Junji nodded and said: "It''s true what Mo said before offering wine. Little Gaochang really can''t feed 100000 troops. Now, if our 100000 troops are stationed again, we can only transfer grain from Yumen pass, otherwise Gaochang will be destroyed. Therefore, the general decided to return to the dynasty in advance. However, we still need to prevent the Western Turks from sneaking attack on Gaochang, so we can only let the troops withdraw to Yumen pass in batches to reduce some grain Grass pressure.


    "Withdraw to Yumen pass in batches." Merton frowned.


    Hou Junji nodded and said, "you have also experienced the difficulty of water shortage during our western expedition to Gaochang. In this vast Gobi desert, a large number of troops are not allowed to March, let alone this hot summer. I''m afraid the water shortage is more serious and can only be evacuated in batches, and your firearm supervisor is the first batch."


    Merton thought about the hardships of the two thousand mile Gobi, and immediately understood the necessity of Hou Junji''s doing so. However, he firmly shook his head and said, "the general''s good intention is accepted by mo. Mo Hou and the firearms supervisor are willing to postpone the withdrawal to Chang''an City, and the first batch will be given to other armies!"


    "Avoid suspicion!"


    Everyone knows why Merton did this, but anyone knows that it is not easy to refuse such good things in Merton''s situation.


    Hou Junji said: "The general didn''t let the first batch of firearm supervisors withdraw to Datang to take care of you. For one thing, there is no war in Gaochang city. Even if there is a war with Western Turks in the future, it is also a battle between cavalry. The firearm supervisor has no place to play. Moreover, as you said, the gunpowder of the firearm supervisor is about to run out. I''m afraid the rest of the gunpowder can''t support it. I can''t fight for long."


    Merton was silent one after another. As Hou Junji said, the role of firearms prison in Gaochang has been minimal.


    "Not to mention gunpowder is the top priority, and it is easy to be coveted to stay in Gaochang, so it is indisputable that the firearms supervisor took the lead in withdrawing from the Tang Dynasty, both public and private." Hou Junji said.


    "Yes, we have no objection."


    "Moreover, when mohou broke the city, his military achievements were outstanding, and the first batch of return deserved it."


    "Mohou should not value false fame. Princess Changle is about to give birth. If you miss it because of fishing for fame, I''m afraid it''s a lifelong regret."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The generals advised one after another.


    Seeing this, Merton proudly bowed his hands to the generals and said, "thank you for your success. Merton is grateful."


    Niu JINDA said with a loud laugh, "it''s polite to offer wine to mo. we are colleagues in the battlefield. We can deliver life and death, not to mention this little thing."


    Merton silently thanked the crowd.


    Later, Hou Junji announced the withdrawal strategy. According to Merton, the firearm supervisor was the first batch, followed by the second and third batch, and Hou Junji''s headquarters was the last batch, choosing to return to the dynasty in winter.


    After all, in winter, when the snow is closed, the West Turks are willing to covet Gaochang, but there is nothing they can do. They can only wait until next autumn to make plans.


    After one year''s operation, I believe Anxi capital guard has gained a firm foothold in Gaochang and is not afraid of any enemy.

 Chapter 1115

    Outside Gaochang City, the firearm supervisor is ready to go, and a full 200 carriages are particularly eye-catching. In front of the firearm supervisor team, two people have attracted everyone''s attention, one is naturally Mo Jiazi, the other is the former king of Gaochang, now Gongqu Zhisheng, Jincheng County, Datang Dynasty.


    This time, the firearms supervisor took the lead in triumphant return. By the way, he also took a job to return the new Jincheng County Duke to Chang''an city to report on his work.


    "Don''t send them far away. Mo MOU will go ahead and wait for you in Chang''an city." Merton said goodbye to the people who came to see them off.


    "Bon Voyage!"


    "When crossing the Gobi desert, don''t forget to bring more water!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    They all told him that they had obviously suffered the pain of the next door for two thousand miles.


    Merton laughed and said, "don''t worry, the firearm supervisor has hundreds of empty cars, enough to discharge water."


    "Take care, everyone!" Merton waved, stepped onto the last shadow and headed for the East. Since he had embarked on his return journey, he naturally had to hurry back at the first time. After all, there was a princess Changle waiting for him in Chang''an city.


    "Mojiazi is gone!"


    The movement of 200 carriages in the firearm prison can''t hide from the people of Gaochang city. The people can''t help but have complex thoughts. It was the devil mojiazi who broke through the wall of Gaochang city. At the same time, mojiazi, like a God, brought raisins to Gaochang, allowing countless Gaochang people to see the future and make a living.


    What makes Gaochang people more complicated is the departure of Qu Zhisheng. Although Qu Zhisheng only served as king of Gaochang for less than one month, he was escorted to Chang''an City by Tang army. Although he nominally returned to Beijing to report on his work, everyone knows that there will be no king in Gaochang since then.


    The departure of mojiazi fell into the eyes of some interested people. A Hu merchant came to a cage. In the cage, there was a divine falcon. Hu merchant quietly stuffed a secret letter into the bamboo tube at the foot of the Falcon, opened the cage, and the Falcon rose into the sky and disappeared into the sky.


    Hawks and falcons fly all the way, but there is only one goal, that is, 800 miles of the vast sea.


    Although the 800 mile vast sea is said to be uninhabited, it is not absolutely impossible to survive. When Tuyuhun voyun fled, he was an oasis hiding in the 800 mile vast sea. In addition, it was summer. The melting of glaciers made several rivers flow into the 800 mile vast sea, which had long been large oases.


    The Falcon looked for it continuously, finally found it, saw a huge oasis, immediately rushed down and fell on a young man''s shoulder.


    Looking at the obvious plateau red on his face, he is a Tibetan. Looking at his gorgeous clothes, he is obviously a Tibetan noble. There are five thousand people and horses around him.


    The Tubo nobleman took down the bamboo tube at the foot of the hawk and falcon, threw out a piece of meat, held it in his mouth, and flew aside to eat happily.


    When the Tubo nobleman took down the secret letter, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "the Mo family is finally alone. This time, as long as we break the firearms prison and capture the Mo family alive, that''s when I talk about the fame of the Qin mausoleum."


    No one can imagine that Tubo hid five thousand troops and horses in the 800 mile vast sea, and the leader was the proud son of Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan, on the Qin mausoleum.


    "Great, I''m tired of staying here for a long time." Mo Chi, the commander of Tubo, lost his horse meat and roared.


    In order to achieve absolute concealment, Lu Dongzan united with Tuyuhun tribe to kill Murong Shun. After Tuyuhun attracted the attention of the Tang army, he secretly sent his son Lun Qinling to hide in the oasis and wait for the next instruction.


    In order to cover the imperial mausoleum, Lu Dongzan even kept circling with the Tang army in Tuyuhun, sometimes deliberately showing weakness. As expected, the Tang army relaxed its vigilance. No one thought that Tubo would cross thousands of miles to the 800 mile sea to ambush 5000 troops and horses, ready to ambush mojiazi and firearms prison.


    Qin Ling couldn''t help thinking of the conversation he had with his father before he set out. It was just spring. When his father got the secret report from Chang''an City, he decided to kill Murong Shun and provoke the Tang Dynasty.


    "Tuyuhun will surely defeat Tubo in this war." Lu Dongzan said with a heavy face on his face.


    On Qin Ling''s face, he said, "why should my father fight with the Tang Dynasty? How can I waste my Tubo man for Tuyuhun."


    "What''s this loss? If we can change an ink family, it''s all worth it." Lu Dongzan said with a firm face.


    "The Mohist family!" on the Qin mausoleum, it was not the first time he had heard the name. As a peer, the Mohist family was at the height of the sun. On the Qin mausoleum, he was a proud man, how could he be convinced.


    "Now I give you a task as my father. You have to ambush in the 800 mile sea and prepare to ambush the Mexican family." Lu Dongzan said with a frozen face.


    On Qin Ling, he saw for the second time that his father attached so much importance to a young man. Last time, Lu Dongzan was facing Songzan Ganbu.


    On the Qin mausoleum, he said proudly, "the firearms can''t supervise a thousand people and horses. Please give the child a thousand people and horses, and he will surely return with the head of the Mexican family."


    Ludongzan shook his head and said, "for my father, I give you five thousand soldiers and horses. You must get the gunpowder and kill the Mexican family."


    "Five thousand troops and horses?" on the Qin mausoleum, he was stunned. The Tubo cavalry has always been elite. Five thousand troops and horses can almost form their own army. The Mohists are only a thousand people and horses. On Qinling, they not only think that their father is making a mountain out of a molehill.


    "The Mohist son has created miracles many times. It''s not too prudent to be the father of the Mohist son. If possible, the father even wants to give you 10000 troops. However, such a large-scale mobilization can''t hide from the Tang army. If the Tang army finds out that it falls short, and it''s not easy to hide in the 800 mile vast sea, no one can confirm when the Mohist son will return. The 5000 troops are already at the limit." Lu Dongzan said solemnly.


    "Don''t worry, father. There are five thousand soldiers and horses. If you can''t take the Mexican family again, the child will have no face to see his father." Lun Qinling said proudly.


    There are five thousand soldiers and horses in the imperial mausoleum. He is not arrogant. There are only one thousand Mohists and horses. Even if Mohists are famous, he believes that he will be able to kill Mohists this time.


    Ludong praised Ning and said, "go! Remember, there is only one task for you, that is, the Mohist must die."


    "The Mohist must die?" on the Qin mausoleum, he was shocked and didn''t understand. "Father, once the Mohist died, wouldn''t Tubo, the secret gunpowder recipe, be unavailable."


    Lu Dongzan sneered: "Yugu set thinks that this time I will swallow the secret skill of gunpowder alone, but he doesn''t know that the secret skill of gunpowder is not worth mentioning compared with the secret of the protection of the gods on the Tibetan Plateau. Only when the Mohist died, can I keep this secret on the Tibetan Plateau and be invincible."


    "Yes, father!" Lun Qinling nodded solemnly and immediately sneaked all the way with 5000 troops and horses, bypassing the Tuyuhun big tribe, and even directly killed his mouth and covered up his whereabouts when he met a small tribe. Only then did he quietly lurk in the 800 mile vast sea.


    "Father, the Mohist family is finally alone. This time, the Mohist family must die." Lun Qinling said firmly.


    After waiting for a few days, according to the itinerary of mojiazi, he should be about to walk out of the 800 Li sea. With a wave of his hand on the Qinling mausoleum, 5000 people and horses were immediately ready to go. It was extremely difficult to find mojiazi in the 2000 Li Gobi desert, but there was only one destination for mojiazi, that is, the Qikou near the Yumen pass.

 Chapter 1116

    In the vast Gobi desert, the sun is extremely hot. Being here is like a steamer. An army of about 1000 people is marching in the heat. This army is the firearms supervisor.


    "Brother Ju, have a drink," Morton raised a kettle and threw it aside to an elegant young man, who was Qu Zhisheng.


    "Mo Hou is polite. Sinners really don''t deserve it." Qu Zhisheng humbly took over the kettle and drank a sip of water gracefully.


    Merton shook his head and said, "brother Ju is too polite. After brother Ju goes to Chang''an City, we are all ministers in the same hall. There is no need to be polite."


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help laughing: "mohou really thinks highly of Qu. Ju is just a person who destroyed the country. I''m afraid he can''t go out of Chang''an city all his life. It''s enough to protect his life."


    Merton took a deep look at Qu Zhisheng and said, "brother Ju is too pessimistic. Misfortune comes with blessing, and fortune comes with misfortune. From the perspective of Mo, Gaochang''s destruction of the country is not a completely bad thing for brother Ju."


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but draw from the corners of his mouth. He used to be the king of Gaochang, but now he has become a prisoner. He was sent to Chang''an City and publicized the achievements of the Tang emperor. It''s not a bad thing.


    Merton didn''t know what Qu Zhisheng thought, and then explained: "Brother Ju has thought about this. Gaochang is so powerful. However, in front of all countries, it is just a joke. Western Turks, Tubo, and even Xue yantuo and tiele in the north can easily destroy Gaochang. At that time, brother Ju and Gaochang must know what happened. Now Gaochang is captured by the Tang Dynasty, the Gaochang royal family can still be preserved, and brother Ju is appointed as Jin by the imperial court Chengjun Gong can be passed down from generation to generation in the Tang Dynasty. Who can tell whether it is a blessing or a curse? "


    "West Turk, Tubo, Xue yantuo." Qu Zhisheng shuddered when he thought about this. Naturally, he knew Gaochang''s situation. Usually, he could only survive in the cracks between the countries. Rao was so, he could not offend any one, and even was blackmailed from time to time. If Gaochang was really destroyed by the three countries, I''m afraid he had already gone through a different place, and his wife and daughter''s fate would be even more miserable.


    The fact that he was able to keep his family safe depended entirely on the fact that the Tang Dynasty was a state of etiquette. In addition, with the example of Jieli Khan, he was only moved to surrender at that time. If the other three countries came to attack Gaochang, I''m afraid Qu Zhisheng had only one way, that is, resistance to the end. Of course, the final outcome may be even more tragic.


    "Thank you for your outspoken words." Qu Zhisheng thanked Hou Junji again. Hou Junji also wanted to kill Qu Zhisheng. Fortunately, after Merton analyzed the advantages and disadvantages, Hou Junji put down his intention to kill Qu Zhisheng and detained Qu Zhisheng temporarily. He didn''t hear the news about the looting of the Tang Army. However, he kept his mouth shut for fear of revealing a flaw and causing death.


    "The reason why I spoke at the beginning is that I know your Majesty''s personality. Don''t be discouraged. Now there are many generals of other families in Chang''an City who are highly valued. As long as brother Qu is interested in the Tang Dynasty, he may be highly valued by your Majesty in the future." Merton advised that in his impression, Qu Zhisheng was directly reused by the court and released as an official. As long as Qu Zhisheng didn''t produce a moth, the future outcome wouldn''t be too miserable.


    Qu Zhisheng thought about the famous Hu general in the Tang army. He couldn''t help nodding and said, "Tian Khan has a broad mind, and the sinners have heard it for a long time, and he admires it."


    Thinking of the rumors of Tian Khan, Qu Zhisheng was a little relieved, and his fear of going to Chang''an city was much less.


    "Going out of the Gobi desert!" suddenly there was a cheering in front. Merton looked at it and saw that some green had appeared in front. They had passed through the next two thousand miles unknowingly.


    "Datang is coming."


    Qu Zhisheng was shocked and walked out of the Gobi for two thousand miles. I''m afraid they will arrive at the boundary of Datang.


    In the past, he admired the culture and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. He imagined that he could ascend the throne one day, personally come to see the Khan and see the prosperity of Chang''an City, but he didn''t expect to come to Chang''an City in this way.


    The whole firearms warden cheered one after another. Although the firearms warden brought sufficient water and food, the intense heat of the two thousand mile Gobi Desert still made the firearms warden suffer. As long as they walked out of the two thousand mile Gobi desert, they would soon reach Yumen pass, where they would get sufficient supplies and rest.


    At the thought of returning to Datang, a group of firearm supervisors accelerated their pace and marched forward.


    Suddenly in front of him, Xue Rengui raised his telescope at will. This is his accomplishment as a soldier. He always observes and confirms his safety at any time. However, this time, several Hu Qi scouts appeared in a piece of yellow sand in the telescope.


    This is indeed a Huqi scout. Xue Rengui will never admit his mistake. He has experienced the battle of Tuyuhun in the western expedition and the battle of Gaochang in the western expedition. How can he not distinguish the difference between Huqi and ordinary business travel.


    At that moment, Xue Rengui waved his big hand and led the two teams of firearms supervision cavalry to quietly hide their body shape and encircle Hu Qi.


    Although Hu Qi scouts didn''t have binoculars, they were extremely alert. They soon perceived the danger and immediately turned around and ran away. Xue Rengui raised his bow and shot. Other firearm supervisors shot one after another. Soon, several Hu Qi scouts fell to the ground with arrows, but one scout reluctantly urged his horse to leave and fled quickly.


    Xue Rengui''s face was dignified. He came forward to check the killed Hu Qi scouts. When he saw the prominent plateau red on Hu Qi''s face, he couldn''t help looking dignified.


    "Tubo cavalry!" exclaimed the firearm officer.


    Xue Rengui''s face was embarrassed. He never thought that the Tibetan cavalry appeared in the vast Gobi Desert thousands of miles away, and it was just the Tibetan scouts. No one could tell how many people and horses there were behind him.


    "Go back and report the sacrifice." Xue Rengui knew that the situation was serious and went back immediately.


    In the arrow, the Tubo scouts galloped and soon came to the hiding place of the Tubo army.


    "General, the firearm supervisor appeared. They found us in advance and attacked us." the cavalry scout who was hit by the arrow said weakly.


    Hearing the description of Zhongjian''s scouts, he was not angry but happy about Qinling: "well, the Mohist family finally appeared. This time, I will step on the bones of the Mohist family and become famous all over the world."


    "Get on the horse, find the firearm prison and kill the mojiazi!" said Lun Qinling with a big hand.


    In an instant, five thousand Tubo cavalry got on their horses and went straight to the firearm prison. Along the way, yellow sand rose everywhere and the murderous spirit rolled.


    "Worship Lord, there is an enemy!"


    Xue Rengui leads the team to Merton and tells the story of finding Tubo scouts.


    "Tubo people! Bad! Got caught!" Merton frowned and exclaimed one after another. From this time, he realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in Gaochang city that Princess Changle was pregnant and hoped Merton would return to Chang''an City as soon as possible, from an old Mohist who asked a messenger for success to ask for words, to someone who directly went to Hou Junji''s big account of the Chinese army, In retrospect, there must be an invisible hand to push, and it is obvious that this hand is operated by Tubo, and there must be insiders of Datang to fuel the fire. Only by cooperating internally and externally can we achieve no mountain and no dew.


    Merton subconsciously felt something was wrong and refused to come back first. However, he was blinded by this kindness, coupled with his worry about Princess Changle.


    Fortunately, this time he didn''t return alone, otherwise he would have no power to return to heaven. Now there are more firearm supervisors around him, and he has the power of a war.


    "How can there be Tubo people here?" Qu Zhisheng was surprised. You know, Tubo is thousands of miles away from here. It''s very unreasonable to appear here.


    Merton looked back at Qu Zhisheng and said, "brother Ju may not know. Just during the war of Gaochang, Tubo suddenly united with Tuyuhun''s traitors and killed Murong Shun, king of Tuyuhun. The westernmost city of Tuyuhun is only hundreds of miles away from here. It''s not difficult to understand the emergence of Tubo here."


    "Ah! Fu Shun, no, Murong Shun is dead!" Qu Zhisheng exclaimed.


    Naturally, he knew that Murong Shun was originally expected to be the best treatment. He was supported by Tian Khan as the king of Gaochang like Murong Shun. Now, after hearing Murong Shun''s experience, he found that it was good to be a Jincheng County Duke in Datang, at least there was no worry about life. You know that there were Tubo behind Tuyuhun and West Turks behind Gaochang, He can''t guarantee that he won''t end up in Murong Shun.


    If it was before, Qu Zhisheng could not help feeling remorseful. If Gaochang could persist and rely on the support of Western Turks and Tubo, he would have a great chance to keep Gaochang. However, now Qu Zhisheng is only thankful. The more tenacious he resists when the firearm prison breaks the city, I''m afraid the end will be miserable. Now what''s left is only thankfulness.


    "Wine worship Lord, in my opinion, the reason why the Tibetan cavalry appeared outside the Gobi desert must be for gunpowder and wine worship. Please withdraw to Gaochang for the time being and let the end stop these Tibetan troops in the future." Xue Rengui arched his hand. Since the firearm prison broke the city in Gaochang City, the firearm prison will attract coveted eyes everywhere. Xue Rengui knows that the firearm prison has been targeted by the public now, and the appearance of Tubo soldiers and horses in front of him is the best proof.


    Merton shook his head and said: "We''re in the Gobi desert for two thousand miles. I''m afraid the remaining water source is not enough to go back. Even if we retreat, where can we retreat? Moreover, according to the military newspaper, our army has gained the upper hand in Tuyuhun, and the Tubo army has slowly retreated towards the Tubo plateau. At present, the number of Tubo troops can''t be too large, and the environment here can''t accommodate a large number of soldiers Ma, what''s more, I''m not without the strength of a war. "


    Merton knew that once surrounded by wolves, turning around and running away was the stupidest choice. The only way was to find a favorable terrain to defend and counterattack.


    When Tubo comes over thousands of miles, it can only be cavalry. What cavalry fear most is naturally desert. Once cavalry loses mobility, sand is the most important thing in the Gobi desert.


    "Choose a sandy land and arrange a defense formation. Xue Rengui leads 300 cavalry to wander away from the battlefield and contain the Tubo army." Merton ordered. At the same time, he did not forget to send two teams, one to Gaochang and the other to Yumenguan for help.


    "Yes!" the officers and men of the firearm supervisor took action one after another. Soon, the Tang army chose an open sandy land, and 200 carriages surrounded the vehicle array. The firearms secretly developed by each firearm supervisor were placed, and the weapons of the whole firearm supervisor


    When confronted with the enemy''s defense, the firearm supervisor has practiced many times. Even the carriage pulled by the firearm supervisor is specially made to fight for defense.


    Countries covet gunpowder, and how can the firearm supervisor not know his situation? He has already made a considerable number of defensive weapons to defend gunpowder. This is also the reason why Merton is confident to keep the firearm supervisor.


    However, when the firearm supervisor arranged the defense formation, Merton couldn''t help blurting out: "hasty!"

 Chapter 1117

    "Kill!"


    On the five thousand Tibetan cavalry led by Qinling went straight to the firearm prison position, and neither side stopped the process of quarrelling with each other and inviting them to surrender.


    Both of them know that they have a gunpowder secret and an opportunity to wait in ambush here for a long time. There is no room for relaxation between the two sides. There is only a battle of life and death.


    "Whoosh! Whoosh!" a sharp arrow shot at the Tubo army. I saw a 300 member cavalry team of the Tang army constantly sparing the five thousand Tubo army, trying to block the charge of the Tubo army.


    This is the 300 firearms officers and soldiers led by Xue Rengui. Their battle plan is to contain the Tubo cavalry as much as possible.


    "Remember, you''ll leave with one blow. Don''t love war." Xue Rengui shouted. Behind him, a group of firearm officers and men responded proudly. Other firearm officers and men were arranging a vehicle array in the sand. They didn''t need horses. Three hundred firearm officers and men brought out all the horses. All of them were the best match of one person and three cavalry, and they didn''t need to cherish horsepower at all.


    "Yes!" three hundred firearm supervisors shouted one after another, raising their bows and crossbows to the Tubo cavalry,


    Naturally, the Tibetan cavalry were unwilling to be beaten passively, and raised their bows to fight back. However, they found that the Tang army retreated immediately after dialysis. They didn''t want war results at all, they just wanted to harass the Tubo army.


    On the Qin mausoleum, who was determined to kill the mojiazi, naturally did not want to be dragged back by this small group of Tang cavalry. With a big hand, a group of 500 Tibetan cavalry immediately came forward to separate the Tibetan army and began to drive away the Tang cavalry.


    However, when the Tubo soldiers came forward to drive them away, the 300 Tang cavalry would clap their horses and leave. If a small group of Tubo cavalry rushed forward, the 300 cavalry would kill them like wolves. If a large group of Tubo cavalry caught up.


    When the 300 cavalry retreated, they did not forget to look back and shoot at the Tubo cavalry. From time to time, they threw round grenades from the cavalry. When the Tubo cavalry arrived, the grenades exploded one after another, immediately blocking the pursuit of the Tubo cavalry. In this way, the 300 Tang cavalry kept a certain distance from the 500 Tubo cavalry, The Tang cavalry can easily kill the Tubo cavalry, but the Tubo cavalry''s bows and arrows often fail. Occasionally, some bows and arrows hit the Tang army, but it is the end of a powerful crossbow, and will not cause harm to the firearms officers and soldiers wearing armor at all.


    The only possible chance is to hit the Tang army''s war horses, but most of the Tang Army rode three times. Once the war horses were injured, they would change horses immediately. Before long, there were only 300 of the 500 Tibetan cavalry left, and a full 200 Tibetan cavalry casualties were under the Tang army''s tactics.


    "Hahaha! Toastmasters are really good at flying kites!" Xue Rengui said happily. Seeing that the Tibetan cavalry had been transferred far away, he waved his hand and was about to rush back to destroy the Tibetan cavalry, but he saw that the Tibetan cavalry retreated one after another and rushed back to most of the Tibetan.


    Xue Rengui frowned and secretly praised the Tubo general. He saw through his intention and took the initiative to recall Tang Jun, which failed his intention again.


    "My subordinates are ashamed and have lost two hundred Tibetan warriors." Zamu, the Tibetan centurion, said with a ashamed face. He is a famous Tibetan warrior. Now he has been brushed around by Tang generals. He has suffered heavy losses, but the loss of Tang army is very small.


    On the Qin mausoleum, he did not blame Zhamu, but solemnly said, "gunpowder is really extraordinary."


    He saw with his own eyes that Zhamu was about to catch up with Tang Jun, but he was blocked by Tang Jun with gunpowder. How can such sharp weapons not make him excited.


    "Mo Chi! You lead Qianqi immediately. You must destroy the three hundred Tang cavalry. Don''t let him harass my son and attack the Mojia Zi." Lun Qinling''s face was dignified and his eyes stared at the firearm monitoring vehicle array in the sand. The high ink words directly told Lun Qinling that Mojia Zi was in the vehicle array, which was a kind of provocation.


    "Yes! Childe!" Mo Chi responded and immediately led the thousand cavalry to meet Xue Rengui. Xue Rengui immediately withdrew and wanted to continue to attack Mo Chi''s thousand man team with kite tactics. However, Mo Chi was very cautious and didn''t fall for it. He drove Xue Rengui directly.


    Xue Rengui couldn''t help humming in his heart. You thought the general had nothing to do. Then he took up the steel crossbow and shot at the Tibetan cavalry. Mochi waved his big hand, but the Tibetan cavalry fought back one after another. However, he found that the steel crossbow of the Tang army had an extremely long range. Although the Tibetan bows and arrows were all superior bows and arrows, they couldn''t be compared with the steel crossbow of the Tang army. In contrast, he immediately suffered a great loss.


    Mo Chi didn''t know that the standard weapon of the firearm supervisor was the most advanced weapon of the Tang army. This steel crossbow was made of the third generation of Mohist steel. Its flexibility, range and durability were greatly improved. It can be shot many times. Unlike bows and arrows, if you shoot more than ten times in a row, your arm will be painful and embarrassed. You need to rest for a period of time to continue shooting.


    Mo Chi immediately changed his tactics. First, he drew a distance. Relying on the large number of people, he began to hunt Xue Rengui. Fortunately, Xue Rengui saw the opportunity early, otherwise he would suffer a great loss. Then he dared not be too close. For a moment, a thousand Tibetan cavalry and three Hundred Tang troops were in a stalemate.


    Merton held a telescope and saw that Xue Rengui was restrained in the Gobi desert, but it restrained thousands of troops of the Tubo army, which has reduced a lot of pressure for the firearms prison.


    Even he can clearly see the Tibetan soldiers eager to try on the Gobi desert, 700 against 3800. Even if they are brave and good at fighting, they will be worried. However, Merton is very calm.


    He saw special gunpowder weapons on the firearm supervision vehicle array. Although gunpowder has been born for several years and the firearm supervision has been established for several years, the firearm supervision has only developed a thousand people. The military is more willing to believe in cold swords than to use up gunpowder weapons like firesticks.


    "In today''s war, the world will see the real power of gunpowder." if the firearm prison breaks the city under Gaochang City, the world will be shocked, but it can only be used on specific occasions. Today''s war will be the first time that hot weapons shine in actual combat.


    "Mohou, can we stop the Tubo army?" Qu Zhisheng was frightened.


    Merton grinned and said, "don''t worry, who am I, the noble MOH family? Even Gaochang city can be destroyed with one blow. It is said that one person can reach ten thousand troops, and one piece of Tubo army is only five thousand troops and horses. It''s nothing at all."


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but draw from the corner of his mouth. Although Mozi claimed that one person could reach ten thousand troops, it just said the value of Mozi, not that you Mozi could defeat tens of thousands of troops alone. However, although Qu Zhisheng doubted in his heart, seeing Mozi''s calm expression of emotion, his original panic disappeared.


    Seeing that mojiazi was so calm, other firearms supervisors and officers were immediately determined, and they often carried out attack and defense drills. Naturally, the firearms in their opponents were full of confidence. Seeing all this, Qu Zhisheng sighed: "I''m not as much as mojiazi."


    However, in his heart, he hoped that mojiazi would work miracles again. After all, he fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty and could be a Duke of Jincheng County, which could save his life and wealth. However, if he fell into the hands of Tubo, I''m afraid it wouldn''t be necessarily.


    When Qin Ling saw the motorcade in the sand, he smiled coldly and pointed at it with a big hand: "there are no more than 1000 firearms, but there are 300 Tang riders outside. There are only 700 officers and soldiers around mojiazi, but there are 3800 troops in our army. I will win this battle. Zhamu, my childe ordered you to be the vanguard and atone for your meritorious deeds. As long as you can get the head of mojiazi and reward a thousand liang of silver."


    Zhamudun said enthusiastically, "thank you, childe."


    3800 officers and men against 700 Tang troops, even if they dismount to fight, in the view of Tubo officers and men, Tubo will win this battle.


    "Attack!" with the order of the imperial mausoleum, Zhamu took the lead to rush to the vehicle array of the firearm prison in the sand, and the first confrontation between hot weapons and cold weapons in history officially began.


    "Kill!" Zamu roared and rushed to the firearm prison position with a weapon in his hand.


    Suddenly, the horse under his crotch whined, stumbled and fell to the ground, and Zamu rolled skillfully. Then he landed smoothly. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain on his back. Zamu took it out with a touch of pain. He saw a bloody iron spike with four sharp corners in his hand, and looking around, the whole sand can be said to be full of these sharp iron spikes, Many Tibetan war horses were attacked one after another, and suddenly people turned upside down.


    "Tang Jun is so mean!" Zhamu roared. Tang Jun buried the iron thorn in the yellow sand. They were attacked one after another.


    "Tribulus terrestris?" Qu Zhisheng watched the Tubo people turn their horses, and couldn''t help blurting out his way.


    Morton looked at Qu Zhisheng in surprise. Qu Zhisheng said with a bitter smile: "Mozi ¡¤ preparing the city gate says that there are ginseng stones and briers at the city gate to resist the enemy. I think at the beginning, the sinners used this move and arranged a large number of iron briers under Gaochang city. However, marquis Mo never thought of breaking the city through the city gate."


    At that time, Qu Zhisheng could be said to have made sufficient preparations for the battle. However, the firearm supervisor''s hot-air balloon and gunpowder frightened him and almost destroyed the weapons of Gaochang city. Only then did he make up his mind to surrender.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing awkwardly. He didn''t expect that Qu Zhisheng was still a fan of Mohism. At present, he was embarrassed and said, "iron thistle is a sharp weapon for defense. It''s not only an enemy of cavalry, but also a wonderful way to prevent the enemy from sneaking camp. Of course, it can also have another wonderful use."


    "There''s another wonderful use." Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help himself. After the horses of Tubo cavalry were stabbed by iron thistles, they dismounted and attacked one after another. Unexpectedly, he found an attack route without iron thistles. When Qu Zhisheng was nervous, he suddenly heard Merton''s order, the stone throwing machine behind him roared, and explosive bags roared, Tibetan soldiers who gathered to charge.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!" a series of explosions were reflected in Qu Zhisheng''s eyes with the light of the fire. He was very familiar with this kind of explosion. He thought that his Gaochang palace was often bombed by explosives at the beginning. However, how frightened he was when he was bombed at the beginning. It''s great to see Tubo soldiers today.


    "It turned out that the iron thistle still has such wonderful functions." Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but sigh. It was the distribution of iron thistle that Mozi cleverly led the Tubo soldiers together and directly threw gunpowder bombing with a stone throwing machine. He immediately admired Mozi.


    "Withdraw! Withdraw!" Lun Qinling roared and called back the troops. Those Tubo soldiers who had survived the gunpowder bombing were frightened and withdrew immediately. After Lun Qinling counted the number, he found that hundreds of Tubo warriors fell in the bombing, and Zamu, who was in front of the charge, narrowly escaped the bombing and returned with lingering fear, And his 500 man team now has only 200 people left.


    When Qu Zhisheng watched the Tibetan army retreat, he frowned and said, "the iron thistle can only be placed at the key intersection, and our army can attack everywhere in the middle of the sand. After the Tibetan army withdrew, it will take a detour to attack us."


    Merton nodded and said, "although that''s the case, we can use Tribulus terrestris to guide the direction of Tubo''s attack, which is what Mo needs."


    Qu Zhisheng was shocked. Yes, the position of mojiazi was composed of 200 carriages, which was not conducive to defense. Once a large number of iron thistles were arranged, it was enough to guide the attack direction of the Tibetan army. In this way, the defensive pressure of the firearms prison was greatly reduced.


    Sure enough, after a trial of the Qin mausoleum, he found that the firearm supervisor focused on the East and north of Tribulus terrestris, but there were few in the South and West. He immediately realized that the South and West were the battlefields chosen by Mozi.


    "MOH family! You are so confident when you are in such a desperate situation that you dare to provoke me." Lun Qinling snorted coldly.


    "Young master, I''d like to be a striker again and personally cut off the head of the Mohist School and give it to the young master." Zamu said ferociously. He was frustrated by the Tang army again and again and wanted to vent urgently.


    On Qin Ling''s dignified look at the firearm supervisor position that is still as stable as Mount Tai, and then look at Tang Qi, the firearm supervisor who desperately wants to come to rescue, but is repeatedly blocked by Mo Chi. He can''t help but coldly exclaim: "he is worthy of his father''s eyes. Mozi really has two brushes, but he doesn''t know the way. In front of absolute strength, all his struggles are futile."


    "Kill the Mozi family!" the Tubo soldiers roared.


    "This time, I want the whole army to crush the mojiazi and defeat the mojiazi in one fell swoop. No matter what''s ahead, even if I use the corpse of a war horse, I will kill him in front of the mojiazi." on Qinling''s ruthless way.


    Today, the military strength of Tubo is five times that of the Tang army, and Tubo is all precious cavalry. As long as they attack in front of the battle, they can crush the whole firearms prison. At that time, he will personally kill the head of Mohist Zi to relieve his hatred.


    "Doodle!" sounded with the horn.


    This time, more than 3000 Tubo cavalry immediately rushed to the firearm supervision position. Even if the sand was not conducive to the charge, these Tubo soldiers still urged their horses to come forward. They found that with horses blocking, their gunpowder damage could be greatly reduced.


    Sure enough, in the sand in the South and North, Mozi didn''t spread iron thistles here, which relieved Lun Qinling, but he couldn''t help wondering what means Mozi had to dare to fight with 3000 Tubo cavalry.


    "Three hundred steps! The catapult is ready!"


    With Merton''s order, a group of catapults immediately threw out explosive bags again. However, this time, Tubo soldiers had already had a way to deal with it and immediately dispersed them, even if the effect of the catapult was greatly reduced.


    On seeing this, Qin Ling could not help showing a trace of pride. He thought he had found a way to restrain the gunpowder. With a wave of his hand, the horn of reunion blew more quickly,


    "Two hundred steps! Three shots!"


    Seeing the Tubo soldiers approaching, Merton ordered again.


    In an instant, all the officers and men in charge of firearms began to raise the steel crossbow, and began to shoot in three sections. In the powerful range equipped with the steel crossbow, they exerted their power incisively and vividly. The Tubo soldiers immediately fell on their backs. Even if they had leather shields in their hands, they still suffered heavy losses.


    On Qin Ling''s appearance, he understood why his father attached so much importance to mojiazi and the firearm supervisor. The equipment of the firearm supervisor was really great, but on Qin Ling, there was no turning back. He firmly believed that as long as he could charge to 150 steps, the bows and arrows of Tubo soldiers could fight back, and then it would be the end of mojiazi.


    Soon, from 200 steps to 150 steps, it was extremely difficult. Under the three-stage shooting, almost every step would bring down many Tubo soldiers. After paying so much sacrifice, Tubo soldiers finally pushed forward to 150 steps.


    "The victory is settled!" on the Qin mausoleum, he couldn''t help but rejoice. As long as the Tubo soldiers and firearms supervision vehicle array reached the range of the Tubo archers, the number and archery of the Tubo archers would surely be able to suppress the Tang army, so that the rest of the battle would be easier.


    Under the cover of a shield, the bow and arrow in his hand are full moon. This time, he must make Tang Jun pay the price. However, he just aimed at the target, suddenly a strong sun came, and his eyes were white. The bow and arrow in his hand couldn''t help but get out and shoot on the sand in the distance.


    "Come again!" Zha Mu couldn''t help feeling sad and angry. Such a level is a great humiliation to a divine Archer, and the culprit is that strong stabbing light, but they charged with the sun on their back. Where will there be sunshine in the North! Taking advantage of the remaining light, he found that there were several round things in the traffic array of the Tang army, shaking back and forth against the speed of light reflected by the sun, shining in the eyes of the Tibetan soldiers.


    "Mozi is really cunning!" on Qin Ling''s face, he was embarrassed. At this time, he realized that his father Lu Dongzan said that it''s not too much to pay attention to Mozi. There are always strange things in Mozi''s hands, and he has repeatedly made miraculous achievements. Now he understands why Mozi chose the battlefield in the South and the west, so that Mozi can make full use of the sun, Although these lights can not prevent Tubo soldiers from shooting arrows, they can greatly reduce the accuracy of bows and arrows. I''m afraid Tubo''s desire to use bows and arrows to suppress Tang army will fail.


    "Optics! Concave mirror!" Qu Zhisheng, the nearest one, saw it most carefully. It was not a disc, but a huge concave mirror, which integrated the sunlight into the speed of light. Even when he was watching, he felt dazzling, not to mention being fully irradiated by this beam. Everyone would subconsciously avoid it, not to mention pulling a bow and shooting an arrow. I''m afraid there was no accuracy at all.


    Seeing the bow and arrow of Tubo soldiers flying in disorder, it could not form an effective coverage attack at all. Moreover, the Tang army was well-equipped and could not cause effective damage at all.


    On the contrary, the three-stage shooting of the bow and crossbow of the firearms supervisor is still stable. Even some Tubo soldiers directly block their heads with shields in order to avoid the dazzling light. They have no time to observe the crossbow and arrow. For a while, the casualty rate of Tubo soldiers has increased greatly.


    On the Qin mausoleum, when he saw one Tubo soldier fall down, his heart immediately dropped blood. As far as his eyes were concerned, hundreds of Tubo soldiers fell down. If he led a thousand troops and horses to attack mojiazi according to his original plan, I''m afraid they would all be killed before they arrived in the formation.


    "Less than a hundred steps, I have at least three thousand Tibetan soldiers and men, and you have no power to return to heaven anyway." on Qin Ling coldly said, in a short charge of hundreds of steps, nearly 800 soldiers and thousands of horses fell, but as long as you can kill the mojiazi, it is worth it.


    "Less than a hundred steps." Qu Zhisheng was shocked. He hid aside and observed the battlefield. This was an experience he had never had as a prince. Even in the original war under Gaochang City, he was just a remote command.


    "How should Mozi turn over?" Qu Zhisheng frowned. "By the way, Mozi hasn''t used firearms yet!"


    Qu Zhisheng''s heart moved. He saw that the Mohist son on one side still commanded calmly, even if the enemy on the other side was less than a hundred steps, he was still calm,


    "Fifty steps." the distance of fifty steps is very short. I''m afraid Tubo soldiers have reached it with one charge, but the Tang army still shoots in three stages step by step.


    Qu Zhisheng can even see that the bows and arrows fought back by Tubo soldiers are becoming more and more powerful. Even the convex mirrors used to reflect the sun are full of bows and arrows, which have long been out of use. Even the fully armed firearms supervisors and soldiers began to suffer casualties.


    "A swarm of bees!" suddenly Merton shouted coldly.


    Qu Zhisheng was stunned. Looking sideways, he saw that each firearm officer lit the lead, and the top of the vehicle array was filled with dense prototype wooden barrels. Qu Zhisheng thought it was the defense of the vehicle array, but he didn''t think it was the most important weapon of the Mohist school.


    I saw the lead burning quickly, and bursts of white smoke came out of the cylinder. At the moment, the Tubo soldiers had charged to less than 30 steps.


    Suddenly, a sharp whistling spread all over the battlefield. Soon, the dense sharp whistling continued to be heard, just like the sound of disorderly bees. One fire light was like a swarm of bees out of their nest, and rushed at the Tubo soldiers opposite.


    However, the poisonous spikes on the tail of the peaks came out of the nest, and this fire light brought sharp crossbows and arrows. Each barrel fully carried 32 crossbows and arrows. This is a defensive weapon specially studied by Mohist Zi for the firearms supervisor, and it was made at all costs.


    Hundreds of bees were in full bloom. Suddenly, the smoke of gunpowder filled the air. Waiting for the smoke to disperse, I saw that there was no one in front of the firearm prison. There was only one crossbow and arrow standing on the ground and the bodies of Tubo soldiers.


    "This......" when Qu Zhisheng saw the power of a swarm of bees, his hands and feet were cold. I''m afraid it''s hard to escape even if it''s a powerful iron cavalry.


    "It''s worthy of being a swarm of bees that made great achievements in the war of pacification, and it really didn''t disappoint me." Merton was relieved to see that a swarm of bees made contributions. Unfortunately, a swarm of bees is one-time and difficult to transport. He took hundreds of barrels at a time, which is the limit, but he ran out with one blow.


    On the Qin mausoleum, he was cold when he saw the blank in front of the car array. This time, in order to ensure the infallible death of mojiazi, all he led were Tibetan warriors. However, mojiazi''s attack took nearly a thousand Tibetan warriors. Now he has only one way to go, that is, he must kill mojiazi in order to offset his merit.


    Moreover, by the means of Mozi, if Mozi does not die today, it will become a great trouble for Tubo in the future.

 Chapter 1118

    "The whole army is under pressure. According to the secret report, the gunpowder of mojiazi is about to be exhausted. It should be impossible for mojiazi to have too many gunpowder weapons with such power." on Qinling''s hoarse voice, there are still 2000 warriors left in Tubo in addition to the sand. In terms of the number of people, he has an advantage. He still has a chance to win this war.


    Under the leadership of Lun Qinling, almost all the Tubo soldiers pressed on the whole line. Even if the three sections were more powerful, the Tubo soldiers still approached the vehicle array quickly.


    "Thirty steps!"


    "Twenty steps!"


    Seeing that the Tubo soldiers were about to rush to the car array, Merton coldly shouted, "grenade."


    Suddenly another wave of grenades were thrown out, and a series of explosions once again killed and injured the Tibetan soldiers. Unfortunately, most of the grenades of the firearm supervisor had been handed over to Xue Rengui to attract the Tibetan cavalry. Few remained in the firearm supervisor position, but the Tibetan soldiers took the opportunity to rush to the front of the vehicle array. After paying huge casualties, the two armies finally clashed.


    Outside the sand, Mochi''s thousand riders are entangled with the 300 firearms officers and soldiers led by Xue Rengui, constantly performing the routine of attack and retreat.


    However, there are only 800 of Mochi''s thousand cavalry left, and the other 200 cavalry fell under the crossbows of the cavalry of the Tang army, and the firearm officers and soldiers also suffered dozens of casualties.


    "Hoo!" Xue Rengui gasped heavily. He just shot several arrows, killed several Tubo soldiers, and used grenades to get rid of Mochi''s siege,


    When he heard the horn of the full attack of the Tubo army, he turned around and saw the overwhelming Tubo soldiers rush to the firearm prison position.


    Mo Chi on the other side smiled coldly. He admitted that the Tang general opposite was a very difficult opponent. He was cunning, calm and excellent in martial arts. He had fought with Tang general many times, but he was always at a disadvantage. However, the Tang general opposite was not without weakness. His weakness was the fire monitor position in the sand. As long as the young master attacked the fire monitor position, Tang general would be anxious. At that time, Is his chance to win.


    Xue Rengui took a deep breath and said, "you guys, do you remember when we rushed to Tuyuhun to save general Cheng?"


    Dozens of firearms officers and men couldn''t help laughing. One of them said in a loud voice, "that''s natural. We were among the thousands of troops. We forcibly opened a road with grenades and rescued general Cheng!"


    "We all dare to rush. There are only 800 cavalry. Do you dare to rush again with our captain?" Xue Rengui Lang said. Although he has been promoted, he claims to be a captain at the moment. This is what he called when he followed Merton and led 50 people to meet again.


    "We will follow the captain to the death!" but now the voice of nearly 300 soldiers responded to Xue Rengui. Fifty of them can charge thousands of troops, but there are only 800 people opposite. Why dare they.


    Xue Rengui stretched out his hand and waved it. Three hundred soldiers immediately set up an attack formation and were ready,


    Mo Chi, on the other side, also noticed the strange appearance of the Tang army and stretched out his hand. Eight hundred Tubo cavalry gathered under his command one after another. Unexpectedly, Xue Rengui opposite didn''t take the initiative to charge, but waited until Mochi set up the formation.


    "He is indeed a hero!" Mochi could not help but be moved by the other party''s adherence to the honor of cavalry, which is a worthy opponent.


    "Drive!" Xue Rengui and Mo Chi almost drank at the same time. Both sides rode at the same time. The two cavalry who fought countless times in later generations launched a battle in the western region for the first time.


    "Kill!" Xue Rengui and Mo Chi''s horses suddenly collided with each other, and the two sides hit each other.


    Mo Chizhi sat on the horse and exclaimed, "you are a hero!"


    Immediately, Mo Chi, the commander of the Tibetan warrior, fell heavily to the ground, and a red blood flowed out. Xue Rengui felt the knife marks on his armor with lingering fear. In order to quickly end the battle, he would not hesitate to exchange injuries for injuries. If he hadn''t been wearing a special steel armor made by Mohist school, he would have been seriously injured at the moment. Rao is so, His inner abdomen was also badly damaged.


    "The commander is dead!" seeing Mochi fall to the ground, a group of Tubo officers and men couldn''t help crying out. However, these people not only didn''t disperse, but more ferociously rushed at the Tang army.


    Xue Rengui roared, "kill!"


    Under his leadership, the Tang army, like a sharp blade, divided the Tubo soldiers into two parts. In the process of cutting through the Tang army, grenades were thrown at the dense Tubo soldiers like no money. For a moment, the Tubo cavalry could no longer form an effective resistance and was soon separated by the Tang army.


    "The son of Mohism is dead!" Zhamu roared, and the mace in his hand immediately hit the vehicle array. This time, he was like a lucky charm. He escaped the crossbows and arrows of the Tang army, a swarm of bees, and even grenades. He rushed to the front of the Tang army and fulfilled his promise to talk about the Qin mausoleum,


    However, Zhamu only felt a huge force rebounding, and he stumbled. He saw thin steel wires hanging in front of the Tang army''s car array, and the steel wires were wrapped with iron thorns.


    "Come again?" Zhamu roared and waved the long knife in his hand, but the steel wire was very flexible. How could a small steel wire be put in his eyes at ordinary times? However, he had to avoid the weapons of the Tang army. The steel wire was extremely flexible. Now these steel wires have become an obstacle for the Tibetan soldiers to make an appointment. It is clear that they are close to the Tang army, but they can only be beaten passively.


    Qu Zhisheng, who took the risk to see this scene, couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He also just knew that this was also the iron Tribulus terrestris. It is well known that the iron Tribulus terrestris were scattered on the ground one by one, while the mojiazi made the steel wire like iron Tribulus terrestris, and combined with the vehicle array of the firearm supervisor, it was enough to stop the enemy three feet away, The strange long weapons of the firearm supervisor can easily kill the enemy.


    Why is it called a strange long weapon? It is because Qu Zhisheng thinks that he is the Gaochang royal family. He is well-informed, but he has never heard of such a weapon.


    "Wolf!" Qu Zhisheng frowned and read out the strange name.


    One by one, the firearm officers and men threw away the steel crossbow and picked up a long weapon, one at the top like a branch of a tree.


    This is the product of the famous combination of hot and cold weapons of the later Qi family army. However, the wolf made by Merton does not use bamboo like the Qi family army. All the wolf in the firearm supervisor are made of fine steel, and the wooden pole is bound with heavy gunpowder.


    As the gunpowder was ignited one by one, the wolf suddenly erupted hot fireworks and sprayed them on the Tubo soldiers outside the vehicle array. This time, the luck of planting trees had been used up. They were immediately sprayed by the hot wolf and screamed loudly.


    At close range, the weapon wolf, which has been verified by great combat achievements, shines brightly. For a moment, all Tubo soldiers close to the vehicle array were killed and seriously injured.


    There are wolves on the top and steel wire and Tribulus Terrestris on the bottom. Although Tubo soldiers occupy the number advantage, they can''t attack a small vehicle array for a long time, but they suffer heavy casualties.


    "The Mo family has no gunpowder!"


    However, on Qin Ling, he always gritted his teeth and insisted. He firmly believed that mojiazi would not last long without gunpowder. His victory in this war was in front of him.


    With the anxiety of the war, almost every second, the soldiers of Tang and Tubo fell. In terms of combat effectiveness, the firearm officers and soldiers who occupy the advantage of the vehicle array have the upper hand. In addition, the proportion of casualties is far less than that of Tubo soldiers, but Tubo, who occupies the advantage of the number of people, still has the upper hand.


    "Pa!" with a crisp sound, the Tubo soldiers who wasted the strength of nine cattle and two tigers finally broke the iron thistle together, rushed to the vehicle array of the firearm supervisor and began to climb up crazily. The firearm supervisor soldiers fought hard and killed several people. Later, the Tubo soldiers stepped on the body of their companions and attacked upward.


    "No, the vehicle array is going to be broken." Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help but turn pale. Once the firearm prison vehicle array is broken, I''m afraid even the Tubo soldiers in anger will not let him go.


    "Burst!"


    However, he suddenly heard a word from the Mohist school on one side. He understood the Chinese language like a lightning stroke, and immediately remembered the shocking explosion under Gaochang city that day.


    Later, however, he knew that the Mojia Zi had dug the tunnel under the city of Gaochang City, and then he used gunpowder to blast Gaochang city. Now how can the Mojia Zi use gunpowder to blast Tubo soldiers? "


    Suddenly, he rushed to the foot and felt soft. Suddenly, he suddenly realized that no wonder the throwing of gunpowder by the catapult had stopped. It turned out that mojiazi buried the gunpowder in the soft sand, and mojiazi chose the battlefield in the South and the West. He didn''t just want to make use of the sun, but let the Tubo soldiers take the initiative to go to the gunpowder.


    With the sound of singing gold, the firearm officers and soldiers who were still firmly resisting in the vehicle array abandoned their positions and withdrew backward. Qu Zhisheng was excited and ran back quickly.


    "The Mohists have escaped!"


    On the Qin mausoleum, he was overjoyed and was about to order the pursuit. Suddenly, he felt the ground shaking under his feet, and a huge fire burst into the sky with the roaring explosion,


    "No!"


    On the ghost of the Qin mausoleum, he clearly saw that the explosion was in front of the official vehicle array, and many Tubo soldiers were within the scope of the explosion.


    "Destroy the city with one blow!" on Qin Ling, he couldn''t help thinking of the legend of mojiazi''s destroying the city with one blow, which was widely spread in the western countries. He was also sneering at it, but when he saw that the real power was in front of him, he knew how he underestimated mojiazi.


    The corpses of originally fresh Tubo soldiers fell in front of the Lun Qin mausoleum with the yellow sand in the sky, which suddenly woke up the Lun Qin mausoleum.


    "Yes, once the Mohist family smashed the city, it must also break the Mohist car array. This is a good time to eliminate the Mohist family." on Qinling, it was like madness.


    "Childe, look!" a guard pointed to the surrounding area. There were less than a thousand Tibetan soldiers who escaped the explosion. In the distant Gobi desert, Mochi''s cavalry had dispersed. More importantly, the huge explosion had frightened Tibetan horses who had never heard such a loud noise. I don''t know how many they ran, and the rest were almost stunned.


    "Young master, let''s go. If we don''t go again, we won''t be able to go." a pro guard begged bitterly. When the yellow sand fell, heavily armed firearm supervisors strode out and mended knives on Tubo soldiers who narrowly escaped the big bang.


    "No, I can''t go. The Mohist must die." on Qinling, his eyes were lax and murmured.


    The pro guards looked at each other and, by coincidence, put the Lun Qin mausoleum on a stunned horse, and immediately withdrew in the direction of the 800 mile sea. They besieged mojiazi with five thousand troops and horses, and defeated a thousand firearm prison soldiers. What''s more, they only had one thousand disabled soldiers and defeated generals. Where is mojiazi''s opponent.


    Other Tubo soldiers followed suit, looked around for running horses, and straddled immediately.


    In this battle, the firearm supervisor won a great victory over Tubo by 1000 against 5000.

 Chapter 1119

    "Sha Sha!"


    As the explosion subsided, the yellow sand flying in the air fell one after another, disheartening Qu Zhisheng, who was hiding behind the carriage of the firearm supervisor.


    However, Ju Wentai, who usually believes that he is the Gaochang royal family and abides by the etiquette, doesn''t care at all. This is just some yellow sand. Compared with the bricks and stones that the mojiazi destroyed the city at the foot of Gaochang city that day, there is no danger at all.


    But the shock in Qu Zhisheng''s heart did not diminish. This is the power of gunpowder. Even if this is the second experience, Qu Zhisheng''s heart is still wildly shocked.


    A thousand firearms guards fought against the elite five thousand Tibetan cavalry. Even if the Tang army was strong, it seemed to everyone that it was a battle of great strength. Even if it won, it was only a tragic victory. The Mexican family even relied on gunpowder and defeated the five thousand Tibetan cavalry with little loss.


    To tell the truth, there are not many kinds of gunpowder weapons in the firearm prison, but each of them has amazing lethality. Qu Zhisheng can''t help but feel helpless. Gaochang tries to provoke Datang who has gunpowder. Isn''t it his own death? Suddenly, the resentment against Merton''s blasting Gaochang city was much less.


    Even in Qu Zhisheng''s view, the strength of the Tang Dynasty is already quite strong, and the gunpowder is even more powerful. Let alone Gaochang, even Tubo and Western Turks will fall under the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty in the future. Now he has become a Duke of Jincheng county. I''m afraid it''s really a blessing or misfortune.


    "However, mohou was too risky. The gunpowder explosion blew up the car array. If the Tibetans were not scared away, it would be in trouble." Qu Zhisheng said with lingering fear. He looked out from behind the hidden car and was glad to see the car shock exploded by the gunpowder explosion.


    "Step out of the vehicle array! The whole army attack!" suddenly, a cold drink from the fireware supervisor came to my ears.


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help being stunned. No, the mojiazi''s car formation is not only one layer, but has two layers of car formation inside and outside. Gunpowder destroys only the outermost car formation, and they are also in an inner small car formation. I''m afraid Tubo will have to pay a considerable price if they want to break through the inner formation,


    Qu Zhisheng saw a group of officers and men in charge of firearms picking up swords and weapons and constantly mending the Tibetan cavalry wounded by gunpowder. After 300 Tang cavalry defeated 1000 Tibetan cavalry, he led hundreds of Tang troops who could still fight to hunt down the escaped Tibetan cavalry. Even if there was no vehicle array, mohaizi still had nearly 700 Tang soldiers to fight, This in itself is not a weak strength. It can be said that the balance of the victory of the Tang army has tended to the Tang Dynasty.


    "Brother Ju was shocked." Merton came out from behind the traffic and saw Qu Zhisheng with the same ashen face. He couldn''t help laughing.


    Qu Zhisheng solemnly said, "Ju is lucky to see the power of Mo Hou and the firearm supervisor. Please rest assured that Ju will have no second heart and obey the Tang Dynasty."


    In this war, Qu Zhisheng not only saw the fierce and fearless death of Tubo soldiers, but also knew the powerful power of gunpowder in actual combat. In contrast, Gaochang''s strength was hardly worth mentioning, so that he could no longer raise his mind against Datang.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing when he heard Qu Zhisheng''s words. This was the first large-scale frontal battle of the firearms prison. Such a record was enough to make him proud.


    "I''d like to inform you, Mr. sacrifice, that thousands of Tubo cavalry have fled after our army chased and killed ten miles away." half an hour later, after Xue Rengui chased and killed the defeated soldiers, he came in a hurry. After many wars, he has been scarred, but he still insisted on fighting.


    Merton nodded, "good, you did a good job."


    Xue Rengui said shamefully, "the last general is ashamed. The rescue is late. Please forgive me."


    Merton said, "it doesn''t matter. It''s not easy for you to contain thousands of cavalry with 300 troops. First deal with the wound."


    Merton comforted Xue Rengui when he saw that Xue Rengui was covered with blood after several wars.


    Xue Rengui shook his head and said, "although there are many injuries on the last general, most of them are just minor injuries, and the last general has been wrapped up."


    "Don''t be careless. It''s better to let the medical soldiers disinfect with alcohol, otherwise it will be serious if they are infected. This is not Chang''an city." Merton insisted. Xue Rengui is a big general he focuses on training, and can''t be damaged.


    Xue Rengui nodded and immediately went to the rear to let the medical soldiers treat and disinfect. After treatment, Xue Rengui continued to stand beside Gong Wei and Merton. The war had just ended, and the firearms supervisor had a lot to do.


    "Tell me, young master, one hundred and fifty-eight firearm supervisors died in the war, three hundred wounded and three thousand annihilated the enemy." Zhang Mu hurried to report the damage of the war to Merton.


    "One hundred and fifty-eight people died in the war!" Merton couldn''t help but feel a pain in his heart. If other armies were 1000-5000 and only more than 100 people were killed, it would be a rare victory, but Merton didn''t care about annihilating the enemy 3000 at all. On the contrary, he was particularly distressed by the firearm supervisors and soldiers who died in the war.


    The number of firearm supervisors was only a thousand, and they lost 15% all at once. You know, the officers and men of firearm supervisors are all elite in the army. They are not only proficient in martial arts, but also literate. They are rare talents with both literature and martial arts. They were recruited by Merton with great effort. Now 158 people have been killed in the war. How can they not make Merton sad, It was all developed by him. He even remembered everyone''s name.


    Xue Rengui was also ashamed. At least 100 of the 158 people died when they fought with the cavalry. He was also very uncomfortable.


    "The rest of the wounded soldiers are treated with all their strength. Don''t be stingy with the green dragon real medicine!" Merton ordered.


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui said in a deep voice. Although the Mohist son is a firearm supervisor to sacrifice wine, Xue Rengui is the daily commander of the generals. Xue Rengui is naturally very sad to see the casualties of his soldiers.


    At present, the firearm supervisor immediately began to carry out large-scale treatment. The more seriously injured firearm supervisors and soldiers were treated by medical soldiers, and the less seriously injured soldiers and soldiers were treated with the assistance of other soldiers or even their own.


    Qu Zhisheng saw an injection of Qinglong real medicine, which was injected into the wounded firearm officer, and couldn''t help but draw from the corner of his mouth.


    "The Mohists are really rich and powerful!"


    At first, he spent a sky high price to find Qinglong real medicine for his father Ju Wentai in the western regions and wanted to continue his life for his father. Now, Qinglong real medicine, which is comparable to liquid gold in the western regions, is like no money. Even the slightly wounded soldiers don''t hesitate to give him an injection.


    Looking at the straight grinning firearm officers and soldiers stabbed by hollow needles, Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help feeling sad. He really had a different life. It''s better to be a Datang man. Apart from others, the treatment of using Qinglong real medicine alone has exceeded that of Gaochang royal family. Unconsciously, Qu Zhisheng still had a vague expectation of becoming a member of Datang.

 Chapter 1120

    You know, in Datang, even ordinary people can use Qinglong real medicine in sufficient quantities, and it is said that the price is only 500 Wen a piece.


    One piece of five hundred Wen is naturally a high price in the eyes of ordinary people. You know, the Qinglong real medicine bought by Qu Zhisheng at a high price cost 50 liang of gold.


    After all the officers and men of the firearm prison were treated, Merton relaxed his breath when he saw that the injured officers and men were in stable condition: "how many horses are there left in the firearm prison?"


    Xue Rengui hurriedly said, "back to the wine worship Lord, there are only 500 war horses in the firearms prison. However, after the Tibetan cavalry fled, we captured more than 1500 Tibetan war horses."


    The Tibetan war horses were frightened by the big explosion of gunpowder and fled everywhere. However, most of them did not run far. Finally, they were found one by one by the firearms officers and soldiers, and there were 1500.


    Merton sneered: "select 1200 war horses, leave 100 uninjured soldiers to guard the firearm prison, and the remaining 400 uninjured soldiers will follow this offering of wine to pursue the imperial mausoleum."


    Just now, he had learned from the mouth of the Tibetan prisoners that it was Lun Qinling, the son of Tubo''s famous Xianglu Dongzan, who came to attack the firearms prison. This man was famous in later generations. He fought with the Tang Dynasty many times, which made the Tang army suffer a lot of losses. Now he was just defeated. How can Mohist Zi miss the opportunity to beat the water dog.


    Not to mention that the Qin mausoleum caused the casualties of 150 officers and soldiers in the firearms prison. How can this great revenge not be avenged.


    "Mo Hou, don''t chase the poor! Besides, although the Qin mausoleum has been defeated, there are thousands of cavalry guards. It''s too risky to pursue this trip. Moreover, if Mo Hou pursues, if the Qin mausoleum escapes 800 miles into the vast sea and hides in an oasis, it''s hard to find a trace. Once it''s deep in it, I''m afraid it''s difficult to save the gods. Mo Hou just got out of danger, why take personal risks? This trip is very dangerous. I hope Mo Hou will think twice." Hearing this, Qu Zhisheng was surprised. This time he sincerely advised Gaochang. Gaochang is adjacent to the 800 mile sea, and he knows how dangerous the 800 mile sea is.


    Merton looked at a desert lizard greedily sucking the blood of a dead horse in the sand. Even if there were soldiers not far away, the lizard was still unwilling to give up this hard-earned water source, and sneered: "Brother Ju knows that there is a huge lizard with extremely poisonous mouth. When it bites its prey, it is not in a hurry to attack, but follows it until the prey is exhausted and eaten alive by the huge lizard."


    "There are such creatures in the world!" said Qu Zhisheng with a surprised face.


    "Now Mo is the lizard, and now Lun Qinling is the injured prey. If he runs away, it''s OK. If he wants to escape 800 miles of the vast sea, that''s his way to death." Merton sneered. Now that Tubo is defeated, the relationship between him and Lun Qinling has been reversed.


    "Ah! That''s an eight hundred mile sea!" Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help saying. He wanted to persuade him again, but he suddenly thought that mojiazi had gone deep into the eight hundred mile sea to pursue Fu Yun. Then he sighed. It was the magic people like mojiazi who regarded the eight hundred mile sea as a smooth road.


    "The last general also followed the sacrificial Lord to pursue the Tubo remnant army." Xue Rengui jumped up and said firmly.


    Merton shook his head and said, "you''ve been injured. Just stay and place the wounded soldiers for the time being and wait for the reinforcements of Yumen pass. Remember not to forget to get the gunpowder out of the front of the battle. Don''t waste it."


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui tried to persuade him again, but he was already injured. I''m afraid he couldn''t support the long-distance pursuit, so he had to give up.


    "Gunpowder before the battle!"


    Hearing this, Qu Zhisheng immediately felt his hair set up. He was frightened to find that gunpowder was buried underground where he had just hid. He was extremely frightened at the thought that he had just stood on gunpowder.


    He probably experienced the most gunpowder explosion in the world. In the battle of Gaochang, he hid in the Imperial Palace and was bombed by gunpowder. Then in the battle of Gaochang, he personally experienced the Mexican family''s attack on the city. At that time, he was less than a hundred steps away from the location of the city. In this battle, he saw the Mexican family ambush the Tibetan cavalry with gunpowder and eat a mouthful of sand. What he didn''t expect was that he had just Just standing on the gunpowder, he was lucky to be able to avoid so many gunpowder explosions.


    Merton looked at him strangely and said, "why do you think Mo blew up so early and collapsed the outer array? That''s because Mo was already in control at that time and didn''t want to sacrifice the lives of firearm officers and soldiers unnecessarily."


    Qu Zhisheng remembered that at that time, Gaochang cavalry and firearms officers and soldiers had just had a confrontation, and there was no mention of losing the battle. Moreover, Tang army had the advantage of armor weapons, and close combat was not inferior to Tubo. Mojiazi directly ordered to detonate gunpowder and let firearms officers and soldiers withdraw back to the inner array. I''m afraid it was to kill a group of Tubo officers and soldiers first, so as to balance the number and strength of both sides , with the help of the inner array and gunpowder, the firearm supervisor has indeed had a safe chance of winning.


    Mojiazi had planned everything well, but he didn''t expect that the Tibetan war horses had never experienced gunpowder explosion. The original sound of the explosion of the catapult''s explosive bag, and the Tibetan soldiers could barely control the war horses, but the sound of the final big explosion was too loud, which directly frightened the Tibetan war horses. Finally, the mojiazi''s back move was not used, and the whole army of Tubo was already in use Rout.


    "The Mohist school is good at defense and deserves its reputation." Qu Zhisheng said convinced that the Mohist school has always been famous for defense. The defense of Gaochang and Datang are mostly influenced by the book of mo. however, now the world only sees that the Mohist school is invincible with gunpowder, but does not know that the Mohist school has never given up its best defense.


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help smiling bitterly. I''m afraid anyone who meets the opponent of Mohism will have a headache, and the famous Tubo general on Qinling is a lesson.


    Four hundred firearm officers and men were ready to go. All of them rode three horses. They were equipped with weapons, food and grass, especially water. They carried them as much as possible. Obviously, Merton was particularly determined to pursue the imperial mausoleum.


    "The eight hundred mile sea is extremely dangerous. Mohou must return safely." Qu Zhisheng said sincerely.


    Merton Lang said, "don''t worry, brother Ju. I''ll meet you in Chang''an city another day. Mo will certainly invite brother Ju to drink a good solution to thousands of worries."


    "It''s a deal, marquis Mo, take care!" said Qu Zhisheng Lang.


    Merton looked back and saw the resolute firearm officers and men. He waved his big hand and said, "chase!"


    Suddenly, Merton stepped onto the shadow, and four hundred iron cavalry followed him, raising yellow sand all the way, and pursued him along the traces of the collapse of the imperial mausoleum.


    Looking at the gradually calm battlefield, Qu Zhisheng sighed in his heart that Tubo ambushed mojiazi. Mojiazi broke through 1000 and 5000, which will certainly cause an uproar in the Tang Dynasty and the western regions.


    The situation in this world is turbulent again, and wind and rain are coming.

 Chapter 1121

    "Hurry! Hurry! Hurry up! The hall army is about to triumph. We must pave all the brick roads before the first batch of soldiers triumph! You can go home when you''re done!" an official of the work department said anxiously.


    "Yes!" a group of corvee people heard that they could go home. They couldn''t help but speed up the laying of brick roads.


    Su dingfang closed the Jade Gate and looked at the brick road with rapid progress. He couldn''t help laughing bitterly.


    Before, these people from the work department were grinding very hard. When the news came that the army had not defeated Gaochang, the work department built it slowly. It took several months to build Wuwei. There was no brick road from Wuwei to Yumenguan. The time required was as long as that from Chang''an city to Wuwei City.


    He was responsible for escorting food and grass, but he did not suffer a lot. The Ministry of labour still shirk the reason that money and grain were not in place. However, it was not long after the news of the victory of the army''s victory over Gao Chang came, the Ministry of work was anxious, and even spared no expense to transfer the red brick from the Central Plains to the land of long right. Even more, he spared no expense to recruit civilian men, which was worthy of being built outside the Yumen pass.


    "No wonder the Ministry of industry is in a hurry. I''m afraid the first batch of successful firearms supervisors are coming soon!" Su dingfang couldn''t help standing at the Jade Gate and raised his telescope to look out of the pass.


    Suddenly, his eyes were frozen. In the lens of the telescope, a cavalry was speeding towards the Yumen pass. It was the equipment of the firearm supervisor.


    "Could it be that the herald of the firearm supervisor has arrived!" Su dingfang said in his heart.


    I saw the firearm supervisor come across the horse. When he was close to the Yumen pass, the horse under his crotch could no longer bear the whine and fell to the ground with a plop. When he just set out, it was the highest standard for one person to ride three horses. However, in order to ask for help at the fastest speed, he suddenly killed the other two horses, and I''m afraid he couldn''t hold on to the last horse, But fortunately, he has seen the jade gate closed.


    The fallen firearm supervisor immediately turned over and continued to run towards Yumenguan.


    "Come on, go up and meet!" Su dingfang waved his big hand and immediately another team of cavalry took an empty horse from Yumen pass to the outside of the pass.


    Soon, the Yumenguan cavalry met the firearm supervisor and brought him to Su dingfang.


    "In a hurry, our army was ambushed by 5000 Tubo troops just after leaving the Gobi for 2000 Li. General Su was also asked to send troops to rescue the firearm supervisor." the firearm supervisor said anxiously.


    "Five thousand Tibetan soldiers ambushed the firearm supervisor!" Su dingfang was shocked, not to mention how serious it was that five thousand Tibetan cavalry quietly appeared in the rear of the Tang Dynasty. Firearm supervisor and gunpowder are the top secrets of the Tang Dynasty. Now, just now in Gaochang, they were ambushed by Tubo, not to mention the world-famous mojiazi.


    These three are combined together. Su dingfang doesn''t know the seriousness of this. I''m afraid it will cause an uproar.


    "If someone comes, hurry up eight hundred miles immediately and report to the imperial court. All cavalry will assemble immediately after leaving the customs to rescue the firearm supervisor." Su dingfang roared.


    Five thousand Tibetan cavalry appeared outside the Yumen pass. Such serious military dereliction of duty will certainly cause an uproar. You must report it to the imperial court. Mohist Zi has a unique status and makes friends with him. He must be saved both public and private.


    "Yes!" all the officers and men of Yumen pass immediately shouted. Mohist Zi had a special significance to Yumen pass. Although Yumen pass was once important, it was only famous in the army. However, a poem by Mohist Zi made Yumen pass known all over the world and brought wind and mill to Yumen pass. Yumen pass officers and men naturally liked it.


    With the thunder of drums, Su dingfang led two thousand elite cavalry of Yumen pass to rush out of Yumen pass immediately. At the same time, a team of post soldiers hurried to Chang''an city again with 800 Li.


    "Come on!"


    Su dingfang hurried to the Gobi desert without hesitation. The importance of Mohism and gunpowder is well known all over the world. Otherwise, Tubo would not use 5000 cavalry to ambush the firearms prison. He might be able to save Mohism a quarter of an hour earlier.


    Two thousand iron cavalry ran all the way. Although the number of two thousand iron cavalry was still lower than that of firearm supervisors, the Tang army was well equipped. Although two thousand Tang army may not be able to defeat five thousand Tibetan cavalry, it was not difficult to rescue mojiazi. Of course, the premise was that mojiazi could persist in his rescue.


    "I hope the great Mohist can make another miracle." Su dingfang secretly said that the firearm supervisor was protected by a large army every time he went to war. He did not have a large-scale encounter, and most of them were firearms. Everyone knew that the power of gunpowder was invincible, but no one knew how powerful the firearm supervisor was in actual combat, not to mention that the Mohist faced five times the force, It''s intentional to unintentional.


    In addition, when the firearm prison had just trekked out of the Gobi desert for two thousand miles, it was even more tired. If it was other troops, Su dingfang might have stopped thinking. However, the sacrifice of the firearm prison was the Mexican family, which gave him a little more hope.


    Su dingfang almost used his horsepower to the limit. In a full day, Su dingfang arrived at the battlefield. He saw the traces of gunpowder explosion and broken soldiers and arrows from a long distance, but he didn''t see a body.


    "It''s over!" Su dingfang''s heart sank. If he came late and the war was over, I''m afraid the defeated party must be the firearm supervisor.


    "I hope mohou can escape," sighed a cavalry general on one side, obviously not optimistic about mohaizi and the firearm supervisor.


    Su dingfang shook his head and his heart was very heavy. Even if Merton escaped, there would be a vast Gobi desert of two thousand miles and a vast sea of eight hundred miles to the south. In such a hot weather, I''m afraid it would be more or less bad to escape.


    "Found the firearm prison, in the sand ahead!" suddenly, the former army scouts cheered.


    When Su dingfang was happy, he immediately raised his telescope in the direction indicated by the scouts. Through the telescope, Su dingfang saw the vehicle array of firearm supervisors in the middle of the sand and the firearm supervisors and soldiers burying their bodies.


    "The firearm prison is still there!" Su dingfang couldn''t help but rejoice. If the firearm prison was still there, wouldn''t it be mohou''s safety, but the Tubo cavalry? Didn''t the firearm prison''s rescue soldiers say there were five thousand cavalry? "


    However, when he was close to the sand, he found the bodies of Tubo cavalry lying around the sand. The number was amazing. In particular, the closer he was to the sand, the more Tubo cavalry. When he reached the sand, he saw a huge sand pit in the middle of the sand. Firearm supervisors were dragging the dead Tubo cavalry into the sand pit and burying them.


    "Where is mohou? Where are the Tubo cavalry?" Su dingfang hurried to the firearm supervision vehicle array and asked in a hurry.


    Xue Rengui naturally had already found Su dingfang, and then came forward and said, "the firearms supervisor has defeated 5000 Tubo cavalry. On Qin Ling''s lead, thousands of cavalry fled, and mohou has led 400 cavalry to pursue."


    "One thousand defeats five thousand!" Su dingfang sighed in his heart. Even if he saw the body of the Tubo cavalry, he had been mentally prepared. When he heard the real results, he couldn''t help shaking up the combat power of the firearm prison.


    Suddenly, Su dingfang reacted and was suddenly surprised and said, "what? Marquis Mo went to pursue the Tibetan troops."


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui confirmed.


    "It''s nonsense!" Su dingfang was extremely defeated. He was relieved by the news that the firearm supervisor defeated the Tibetan cavalry. But he couldn''t help worrying when he heard the news. The mojiazi went after the Tibetan disabled soldiers with his own danger.


    "How long did mohou go and which direction did he pursue?" Su dingfang asked hurriedly.


    Xue Rengui stretched out his hand to the South and said, "it''s been a full day."


    Su dingfang looked at the vast Gobi in the south, which was the direction of 800 miles of the vast sea. He came in a hurry and didn''t make enough preparations to enter the desert. Not to mention that Merton had gone for a day, and now I''m afraid he can''t catch up with him.


    "You don''t want to stay here, you''d better go to Yumen pass to have a rest and wait for the news of Duke mo." Su dingfang said in a loud voice when he saw the wounded soldiers in the fire monitor.


    Xue Rengui nodded. The Gobi desert is extremely hot in summer. In addition, there are a lot of wounded soldiers in the fireware prison. You really need to go to Yumen pass to rest.


    At that moment, with the help of two thousand cavalry, the firearm supervisor set out again and went in the direction of Yumen pass.


    Su dingfang walked at the end, couldn''t help looking towards the South and sighed: "I hope mohou can create another miracle and return safely."


    Xue Rengui nodded solemnly and said, "I will."

 Chapter 1122

    As Su dingfang returned to Yumen pass with the wounded firearm guards, another 800 Li rush started from Yumen pass and reported the Tubo ambush against the firearm guards to chaotang. At this time, it was only two days away from the previous 800 Li rush.


    "Two 800 mile expeditions in two days, and they are all about the firearms prison. The sensation in Chang''an city must be no less than the two big explosions of the firearms prison." Su dingfang settled the wounded soldiers and sighed.


    But it''s not over yet. What''s more powerful is still behind. The mojiazi pursued the Tibetan remnant army in the direction of 800 miles of the vast sea. Whether it was successful or not, it must be the third big bang.


    At the Yumen pass, the officials of the Ministry of industry watched the soldiers of Yumen pass bring back a large number of wounded soldiers. When they inquired carefully, they were surprised. They didn''t expect that the first batch of successful firearms supervisors were ambushed by Tubo cavalry. What shocked him more was that the firearms supervisors won.


    "My Lord, there are a lot of wounded firearm supervisors now. I''m afraid I can''t leave in a short time. Don''t we have to hurry up for the construction period." a craftsman from the work department said cautiously.


    "Fool, this time we should not only finish the work, but also speed up the completion." an anxious way appeared on the face of the Work Department official.


    "Why is this?" the craftsman puzzled.


    "Why?" the official of the Ministry of work said with a bitter smile: "the court must be angry when such a big thing happened to the firearm supervisor and the Mohist school. If the Ministry of work doesn''t know the phase again, it will offend the bad luck at this time, won''t it kill itself?"


    When the craftsman heard the speech, he couldn''t help but feel a chill in his heart. He saw with his own eyes that two 800 mile expedited letters were sent one after another. His Majesty must be angry. I''m afraid no one will benefit at this time.


    Immediately, with the urging of the officials of the Ministry of works, the whole brick road project immediately stepped up to complete in the shortest time,


    At the same time, two 800 Li expeditions from front to back are rapidly heading for Chang''an city. Although it is only two days away, under the joint action of brick road and post station, a chemical reaction has burst out. In Yumenguan and Lanzhou sections, it is enough to travel 800 Li a day. Two 800 Li expeditions are enough to stagger 1500 Li.


    "Lanzhou post station, 800 Li hurry!" the second 800 Li hurry post soldier rode to Lanzhou post station and shouted.


    Lanzhou post station was surprised. In just two days, there were two 800 Li expeditions. Great things must have happened in the western regions.


    The head of the post station quickly welcomed him and carefully checked it. After seeing that Su dingfang''s mark was correct, he immediately exchanged new horses for the post soldiers. If it was ordinary letters, most of them were handed over by people and horses. However, most of the important letters such as 800 Li rush were changed without changing people. After all, many things were unclear, A person familiar with the situation is also required to describe the process in detail.


    "Finally passed Lanzhou, and Chang''an city is not far away!" the second 800 mile expedited post soldier sighed on the wide brick road outside Lanzhou.


    If someone had said so before, he would have been regarded as a madman. However, what the courier said at the moment is not unreasonable. After Lanzhou, both the scale of the courier station and the conditions of the brick road are much better. Moreover, if he can travel day and night at full speed, he can travel thousands of miles a day. This speed has been set a record by the messenger of success some time ago, It caused quite a stir in the post station.


    "I''ll leave for Lanzhou two days next night, and the previous batch of 800 Li expedited should have arrived at Chang''an city!" the post soldier said in his heart.


    What he guessed was right. The first batch of 800 Li expedited day and night had indeed reached Chang''an City, and the time of arrival was late at night.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were resting in the Lizheng hall when a sudden knock on the door sounded.


    "Your Majesty, your majesty!" pound called anxiously outside the hall.


    "Your Majesty, when father Pang knocked at the door late at night, there must be something urgent." empress Chang sun woke up and called up Li Shimin, who looked reluctant.


    "If this old slave doesn''t have a good reason, I can''t spare him!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    At the service of empress Chang sun, Li Shimin put on his clothes, walked out of the hall door and frowned, "what''s the matter?"


    "Tell your majesty, there is an 800 Li urgent letter from Yumen pass!" pound quickly handed the 800 Li urgent letter in his hand.


    "Yumen pass, eight hundred miles to hurry up." Li Shimin was suddenly surprised. Yumen pass is an important border town. According to the past amazement, whenever there is an eight hundred miles to hurry up at the border, it must be a military war. However, now the 100000 troops of the Tang Dynasty have just won Gaochang, Li Shimin doesn''t think anyone dares to invade Yumen pass.


    With doubts, Li Shimin opened the eight hundred miles to hurry. Seeing the secret letter inside, he immediately shouted angrily, "Tubo is so brave!"


    "What''s the matter?" empress Chang sun hurriedly asked.


    Li Shimin''s face was blue and said, "five thousand Tibetan cavalry ambushed the firearm prison outside Yumen pass!"


    "What''s the result of ambushing the firearm supervisor?" empress Chang sun was surprised. She wanted to know that the firearm supervisor was in charge of the most confidential weapons and gunpowder in the Tang Dynasty, and it made a big splash in the battle of Gaochang, and the firearm supervisor offered wine to their son-in-law Merton.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I don''t know the news now, but I have no intention. In addition, the number of Tubo cavalry is five times that of firearms prison:


    Li Shimin didn''t go on, but empress changsun already understood that this time, I''m afraid the Mohist and the firearms prison will be more or less dangerous.


    "Merton......" the eldest grandson queen trembled. Once Merton had an accident, what would Princess Changle do?


    Empress changsun was weak. Li Shimin quickly comforted: "the firearm supervisor has the most powerful gunpowder. Merton spared no effort to increase the armament for the firearm supervisor. In addition, this boy has always been smart. Even if he can''t defeat the 5000 Tibetan army, it shouldn''t be a big problem to keep his life."


    The eldest grandson empress cares about her daughter and worries about Merton. However, Li Shimin doesn''t want anything to happen to the Merton family. In addition to being his son-in-law, Merton still holds the secret recipe of gunpowder and is the key figure of the new generation of hundred schools of thought.


    Once the Mo family had an accident, whether Merton was captured or killed in the war, it would be an unbearable loss for Datang.


    "By the way, keep it a secret. Don''t tell Changle first. Su dingfang has gone to rescue Merton and plans for the next step." Li Shimin took a deep breath.


    "I understand!" empress Chang sun nodded. Now Princess Changle is pregnant. If she suddenly heard the bad news of Merton and moved her vitality, I''m afraid she can''t regret it.


    After appeasing the empress Chang sun, Li Shimin walked out of the legislative hall. Suddenly, his face changed and said, "summon all the ministers. Be sure to find out the truth."


    Five thousand Tibetan cavalry quietly lurked outside the Yumen pass and accurately ambushed the most important firearms prison in the Tang Dynasty, which must be full of fog.


    "Yes!" pound answered.


    Soon, a group of palace guards rode around to give orders, and the residence of all officials was brightly lit again.

 Chapter 1123

    "Drive!"


    Soon, a carriage arrived outside the imperial city. Fang Xuanling got off the bus and was worried. His majesty summoned him late at night. It must be a big event.


    "Brother Fang!"


    "Elder brother sun!"


    "Brother Li............."


    Most of those who could be recruited by Li Shimin late at night were important officials of the imperial court, including Fang Xuanling, eldest sun Wuji, and Li Ji.


    When they said hello, they stopped talking and entered the palace with tacit understanding.


    When they came to the Tai Chi hall, they found that Li Shimin had already been waiting there. They were surprised and hurried forward.


    "I don''t know your majesty summoned late at night, but what happened?" Fang Xuanling asked.


    Changsun Wuji secretly observed Li Shimin''s look. As the person who is most familiar with Li Shimin, changsun Wuji found that Li Shimin seems calm now, but he has been restless for a long time.


    "You can see at a glance." Li Shimin took a deep breath and handed the 800 Li urgent letter in his hand.


    "Tubo!"


    The ministers looked at the eight hundred Li urgent letter, suddenly changed their face and shouted in a low voice.


    Changsun Wuji suddenly realized that the reason why Li Shimin was uneasy was that he didn''t know whether to worry about the leakage of the secret recipe of gunpowder or the safety of Mozi. I''m afraid the latter should be more.


    Fang Xuanling frowned and said, "I always thought that Marquis Mo had deliberately targeted Tubo. Now it seems that Marquis Mo''s concern is indeed right. Tubo is indeed a wolf''s ambition."


    For a long time, the MOH family has always had a deep prejudice against Tubo. Originally, hundreds of officials deliberately targeted Tubo because the MOH family must be both sides because of the resentment of Princess Changle. However, Tubo showed its true face step by step. Before, they united with the Tuyuhun tribe to kill Murong Shun supported by Datang, making it look like Tuyuhun fighting inside, which is still a fig leaf, Now five thousand Tibetan cavalry ambushed the firearms prison, and it is already naked to go to war with the Tang Dynasty.


    "This is the fault of the last general. He failed to have a timely insight into the movements of the Tubo army and let the firearms prison suffer this disaster." Li Ji looked ashamed and took the initiative to take responsibility.


    Now hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of war, has set out for Gaochang. Li Ji is responsible for all the affairs of the Ministry of war. Five thousand Tibetan troops and horses lurk outside the Yumen pass. Naturally, the Ministry of war is to blame.


    "Don''t blame general Li. Who could have thought that Tubo and Tuyuhun had collusion, not only with the intention of getting involved in Tuyuhun, but also with mohou and the firearm prison." Fang Xuanling shook her head and said, who didn''t expect that Tubo was so cruel. He first used Tuyuhun to attract Tang''s attention and tried to besiege 100000 Tang troops, He even stared at the most top secret firearms prison in Datang.


    "But don''t worry, your majesty. There are thousands of people in the firearms prison, and they have such peerless weapons as gunpowder. In addition, marquis Mo has repeatedly created miracles, maybe they can survive this time." eldest sun Wuji comforted, but his words are watertight and flattering at both ends.


    The ministers nodded and comforted one after another. Li Shimin''s eyebrows eased slightly.


    "This matter must be thoroughly investigated. Why did the five thousand Tibetan cavalry quietly ambush outside the Yumen pass? It must be that the firearms Regulatory Commission was alone. I heard that after the great victory of Gaochang spread, there were rumors that Merton would return to accompany the birth as soon as possible. Today, it seems that the behind the scenes means all over the world!" Li Shimin said coldly:


    Everyone was shocked and immediately heard the meaning of Li Shimin''s beating. The people behind the scenes manipulated public opinion and even made things that affected the court''s decision, which made Li Shimin how to bear.


    "Yes! The minister and others will certainly investigate clearly." Fang Xuanling and others solemnly said. Tubo even extended his hand to Chang''an City, which not only Li Shimin could not bear, but even they could not bear.


    "It''s still going on secretly," Li Shimin said.


    The ministers nodded and immediately knew that Li Shimin was taking care of Princess Changle''s mood.


    The hurry of 800 Li at night naturally alerted many people, but under Li Shimin''s deliberate blockade, the matter soon subsided. After all, there are many things that the government has never made public.


    However, for two days, the people of Chang''an City found that the government''s investigation was particularly strict, especially for Hu merchants. Almost the whole western city had been under martial law.


    After two days of investigation, some Tibetan spies lurking in Chang''an City were uprooted one after another, and even spies from other small countries were involved, as well as holding grass and beating rabbits.


    When Li Shimin saw that so many spies were entrenched in Chang''an City, he couldn''t help but look blue. Fang Xuanling, who reported on one side, said helplessly: "I inform your majesty that according to the instructions of Tubo spies, they just got the advice of Lu Dongzan and asked them to deliberately spread the news that Princess Changle was pregnant and had worked hard and made great achievements, and should come back to accompany the birth. Others didn''t know."


    Li Shimin sneered: "so there are also people in Datang who collude with Tubo to reveal the state secrets of Datang and kill the officials of Datang."


    The house is not sure that this is possible. But the little minister thought that this matter could no longer be checked. It was a great lady who was able to speak at the Queen''s empress and the princess of the long princess. They were not nauseous, but most of them were considered for the royal highness of the princess. If they were all checked, I''m sure it would cause a great disturbance.


    "The man behind the scenes is really cunning!" Li Shimin said with hatred.


    If they were ordinary people, Li Shimin would certainly order a thorough investigation. However, they were the dignitaries and ladies of Chang''an City, which was complicated. These dignitaries and ladies were the most gossip. I''m afraid they could pull out the circle of dignitaries in Chang''an city. Once these dignitaries and ladies were investigated on a large scale, they would have too much influence to hide from Princess Changle.


    "But your majesty, don''t worry. No matter how cunning the people behind the scenes are, they will leave a lot of clues. These dignitaries and ladies just say some rumors. Those who can really affect the return of marquis Mo must be in the Anxi capital guard''s house. According to the post soldiers, Marquis Mo once sent someone to report the attack to Gaochang. I believe general Hou will be alert and find out some clues.


    "Let''s do this for the time being. Su dingfang has gone to rescue the firearms prison. Wait for the next news." Li Shimin slowly spit out his airway.


    Fang Xuanling had just left when empress changsun sent someone to deliver a message. Princess Changle entered the palace.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but have a headache. After the great victory of Gaochang, Princess Changle refused to let Merton return first. However, after the first batch of successful return of the fireware supervisor from Gaochang, Princess Changle went to the palace frequently and inquired about Merton''s whereabouts in a roundabout way every time.


    This also made Li Shimin afraid of Lu Dongzan. He was absolutely an expert in controlling people''s hearts. He even took advantage of Princess Changle''s mind and played with everyone.


    "Ludongzan, Tubo!" Li Shimin took a deep breath and officially set his eyes on this country that had never been in his heart before.

 Chapter 1124

    "Ah! Here comes Changle!" Li Shimin said with a stiff face.


    Princess Changle held her stomach and said softly, "the child is pregnant for more than six months. I''m afraid it''s not suitable to walk in a few days. While she can walk these days, come and see her mother and father."


    Li Shimin pulled out the corner of his mouth. If he had believed in Changle''s filial piety in the past, now Princess Changle has repeatedly inquired about Merton''s whereabouts. I''m afraid even empress changsun doesn''t believe that Princess Changle''s entry into the palace is simply to visit them.


    Empress Chang sun came forward with a strange look on her face and said, "how is the mother? It''s you. This is a second child. Although she has been raised for three years, she still needs to pay more attention."


    According to Sun Simiao''s diagnosis, Princess Changle is likely to inherit the constitution of empress changsun, and the most taboo is blood loss. Although the second child of Changle is three years away from Martha, empress changsun is still worried.


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "don''t worry, mother. President Zhang has carefully examined the child and said that her daughter''s body has recovered well and is healthier than many pregnant women."


    "That''s good!" said the eldest grandson. As a mother, she naturally didn''t want to see her daughter go back to her old way.


    Princess Changle exchanged greetings for a while. It seemed that she inadvertently said to empress changsun, "don''t worry about your mother. After a few days, Merton will come back, and the child will take him to visit your mother."


    Princess Changle said, but her eyes stared at Li Shimin. Empress changsun didn''t know what Princess Changle meant and couldn''t help dodging her eyes.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but flash a trace of intolerance in his eyes and said, "Merton may have to wait a little longer before he can come back. After all, he is my son-in-law. If he returns first, won''t it be criticized by the whole army? I decided to let him close the army in Yumen for rectification and wait until he returns together with the second batch of victorious soldiers. In this way, no one can find fault."


    Li Shimin thinks it is necessary to delay. After all, Merton''s life and death are unknown, so as to avoid Princess Changle''s random speculation when she can''t wait for Merton''s news.


    Princess Changle''s face could not help a burst of disappointment, but she still forced her face to smile and said, "the father has considered everything carefully. We can''t break the military discipline because the child is pregnant."


    "That is, if it is said that Merton is the first to return because you are pregnant, it will not only dissatisfy the soldiers, but also damage Merton''s reputation." empress Chang sun also helped.


    "What my mother said!" Princess Changle nodded and said yes. They were worried about their strict refusal to let Merton return first.


    "You can rest assured to raise the fetus. You were worried about Merton going to war all day. Now Gaochang has won the war and the soldiers have returned in triumph. What else can happen?" said the empress changsun softly.


    Princess Changle was relieved, and then she smiled and said, "the child will go and see how she and Martha are playing."


    Watching Princess Changle disappear behind the screen, Li Shimin and empress changsun breathed a sigh of relief. They only fooled Princess Changle temporarily. If Merton didn''t return, the Tibetan ambush on the firearms prison would be exposed sooner or later. They couldn''t imagine how sad princess Changle would be at that time.


    "Has the Tibetan ambush against the firearms prison been found out?" asked the empress changsun.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "only a few Tubo traitors have been found. There are too many officials and women''s families involved, so it''s not suitable to go further."


    Empress Chang sun nodded deeply. She thought about the dignitaries and ladies who wanted to suggest around her. Almost everyone said similar words to her, but these people could not work for Tubo.


    "At present, wait slowly until the news of Yumen pass comes. If something really happens to Merton, the palace will tear its face and find out who is behind the scenes." empress Chang Sun said angrily.


    It is naturally inconvenient to investigate and deal with these dignitaries and ladies, Li Shimin, but it does not mean that empress Chang sun has no way.


    Suddenly, a suppressed sob came from behind the screen. Empress changsun shouted bad in her heart. How could she not recognize that it was the voice of her daughter Princess Changle.


    They didn''t expect that Princess Changle heard something wrong from their words. She pretended to go out and eavesdrop behind the screen.


    "Father, don''t deceive the child any more. Whether Merton is alive or dead, the child should know the exact news of Merton." Princess Changle, who was full of tears, stubbornly came out from the screen.


    Li Shimin was helpless, so he brought the news that five thousand Tibetan cavalry ambushed the firearms prison.


    "Five thousand cavalry, ambush!"


    Princess Changle can''t help but shake her figure. Rao is that she knows nothing about military affairs, but she also knows how dangerous the situation of firearms prison is with such a disparity of power..


    "You are pregnant, don''t move your fetal Qi." the eldest grandson queen hurriedly came forward to help her and comforted her.


    Princess Changle said sadly, "if the child was not pregnant, Merton would not be in such a hurry to come back. How could he fall into the trap of Tubo people."


    Princess Changle knew in her heart that it was her pregnancy that exposed the flaw of Merton. Otherwise, how could the firearms prison following the army be in danger.


    Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "there is no exact news yet. No one can be sure of the specific results."


    "Yes! Merton is a great Mohist. He has done miracles many times, and the firearm supervisor is in control of gunpowder. Besides, my Tang soldiers have always been brave and good at fighting, and Merton may not lose." empress changsun also joined the ranks of persuasion.


    Princess Changle suddenly brightened her eyes and said proudly, "yes, he is the son of the Mo family. There is no difficulty to live him!"


    Seeing Princess Changle''s proud look for Merton, Li Shimin couldn''t help eating at ordinary times and lamented that the daughter who worships her father most has turned to her husband. Now Li Shimin sincerely hopes that Merton can create another miracle and return safely.


    "Report! The eight hundred mile rush at Yumen pass!" suddenly pound hurried again and brought a new eight hundred mile rush.


    Suddenly, all three of them stared at the secret letter in Pound''s hand. Everyone knew that this 800 mile urgent letter must have the news of Merton and the firearm supervisor.


    "Why don''t we avoid it first." empress changsun looked at Princess Changle with a big belly. She couldn''t bear it. She was afraid that Princess Changle couldn''t stand the blow.


    Princess Changle shook her head firmly and said, "no! Whether Merton lives or dies, Changle, as his wife, should know the news at the first time."


    Li Shimin saw that Princess Changle had a firm attitude. Helpless, he took the 800 Li rush, opened it and suddenly got up.


    "Father?" Princess Changle was so sad that she could make Li Shimin lose his manners. It must be the defeat of the firearms prison.


    However, Li Shimin looked incredible and said, "it''s not a defeat, but a victory, or a complete victory."


    It was a thousand against five thousand, and the Mexican family even used gunpowder to win more with less. Li Shimin always used gunpowder as a strange soldier, but he didn''t expect that gunpowder equipped into the army should have such a powerful attack power.


    In Su dingfang''s urgent report, the firearms prison only killed and injured less than 200 people, effectively killed more than 3000 cavalry, and finally defeated the Lun Qin mausoleum.


    "This is not a dream!" empress Chang sun still dared not believe.


    Li Shimin clapped the urgent report in his hands: "how can you fake the urgent report of 800 miles."


    Princess Changle burst into tears with joy and said, "great, firearm supervisor Da Sheng, isn''t Merton coming back soon?"


    Li Shimin immediately looked embarrassed and said, "I''m afraid Merton will have to wait a while to return?"


    Princess Changle''s joy immediately solidified on her face, and she couldn''t help but say in a hurry: "wait a while before you can come back. Merton was injured. Is it serious?"


    "No injury?" Li Shimin shook his head.


    Empress Chang Sun said strangely, "why is that?"


    Li Shimin looked strange and said, "this boy Merton led 400 cavalry to pursue the Tibetan remnant army."


    "Ah! Chasing again?" Princess Changle was stunned before she could react from the surprise.


    The eldest grandson said with a wristlet, "Merton is really a child. Isn''t he just out of danger and in danger again?"


    "Merton did it right! How can these Tubo invade our Datang and kill our Datang officers and soldiers?" Princess Changle clenched her fist,


    Li Shimin nodded solemnly. This time, Tubo completely angered him. Although Merton''s behavior was risky, it was quite in line with his appetite.

 Chapter 1125

    Leaving the happy princess Changle and the mother and daughter of the eldest grandson queen, Li Shimin took the 800 Li rush and came to the court hall. I''m afraid the 800 Li rush twice in a row has already alerted all officials. It''s time to announce the news, otherwise people in the court and the public would have been terrified.


    "What! Five thousand Tubo cavalry ambushed the firearm prison!"


    "The firearms Commissioner won."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When Li Shimin announced the two 800 Li expeditions on the court hall, the court was in an uproar. They were not only shocked by the boldness of Tubo, but also shocked by the combat effectiveness of the firearms prison.


    "Gunpowder is so terrible!"


    All the officials could not help but smack their tongue. They paid attention to the firearm prison for the first time. I''m afraid this combat power alone is already among the best in the Tang army, and even has a vague trend of surpassing the Modao team, the first fierce army of the Tang Dynasty.


    Fang Xuanling and others were also relieved. The firearms supervisor proved the power of gunpowder by winning more with less, and kept the secret of gunpowder, otherwise they would hate for life.


    "Tubo is so bold. We must not let them go this time." a minister said aggressively.


    Now that the Tang Dynasty has just conquered Gaochang, the Western Turks have been scared away for thousands of miles. Although everyone opposed these ministers before the war, now the Tang Dynasty has won a great victory, the ministers are naturally proud.


    But who could have thought that it was the glory of the Tang Dynasty at the moment. He thought he was invincible in the world, but he didn''t think that the little Tubo dared to jump out and stroke the tiger beard of the Tang Dynasty, which made all the officials embarrassed.


    "Naturally, now Merton has led 400 soldiers and 800 horses to pursue the Tibetan remnant army." Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    The ministers were not surprised. No one thought that the Mexican family would take revenge overnight. The war had just ended and turned to pursue the crippled enemy.


    "What about the Tubo soldiers who invaded Tuyuhun? The battle of Gaochang is over. It''s time to solve the matter of Tuyuhun," said changsun Wuji.


    Li Ji shook his head and said, "the Tibetan army of Tuyuhun should have been in touch with the ambush army outside Yumen pass for a long time. It has begun to coerce the rebellious Tuyuhun tribe to withdraw to Wuhai and other places, where the plateau reaction is strong. Once our officers and soldiers go deep into the war, they will have to withdraw for fear of being ambushed by Tubo."


    Fang Xuanling frowned and said, "didn''t Mo Hou say that saffron can alleviate altitude reaction? How can our soldiers still lose their combat power."


    Li Ji said with a bitter smile: "saffron can indeed alleviate altitude reaction, but the effect is not good. The Mohists have begun to study ways to completely solve altitude reaction. I''m afraid it was the disclosure of this secret that attracted Tubo''s revenge."


    According to the confessions of Tubo traitors they seized, Tubo did know that Merton might solve altitude sickness.


    Li Shimin suddenly looked cold. Gunpowder was the bane of the city wall. A single gunpowder was enough to make Tubo move, not to mention the more deadly secret recipe to solve the plateau reaction to Tubo.


    "If it''s for me to find out who colluded with Tubo and leaked state secrets, don''t blame me for being merciless." Li Shimin shouted coldly. I''m afraid only court officials can know that Merton cracked the secret of altitude sickness. Now it has spread to Tubo''s ears. It must be someone colluding with Tubo.


    All the officials bowed their heads and were silent one after another. The matter was too much involved, and no one dared to talk nonsense.


    But Merton has always made many enemies. No one knows who killed him by the hand of Tubo.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. The imperial court will certainly strengthen the confidentiality in the future and will not appear in the leakage of secrets." Fang Xuanling, as the head of all officials, first said.


    "This matter is put on hold for the time being, waiting for Merton and the western expedition army to return, and then discuss the matter of Tubo." Li Shimin said brightly after beating the ministers.


    Merton said that everyone knows the secret of Tibetan Plateau reaction. If you find out, you don''t have a clue.


    "Yes!" the officials were relieved.


    After the meeting, the contents of the two 800 mile expedited meetings gradually spread in Chang''an City, and immediately caused an uproar in Chang''an city.


    Su dingfang was wrong. He thought that the two 800 mile expeditions must be like two big explosions, but he didn''t expect that because of Li Shimin''s deliberate pressure, the two big explosions exploded at the same time in Chang''an city.


    "Worthy of the Mohist family!"


    "Tubo has thousands of calculations, but he doesn''t count that his opponent is the Mexican family who has repeatedly created miracles."


    People can''t help but smack their tongue. It''s not surprising that the Mohist family can win a big victory in the face of such a disadvantage. After all, it''s a great Mohist!


    In the circle of ordinary people, it is just an interesting talk. However, in the circle of ladies in Chang''an City, it is like a gunpowder explosion.


    You know, when almost everyone''s dignitaries and ladies meet princess Changle and empress changsun, they will persuade Merton to come back and accompany Princess Changle as soon as possible, whether it is false or good intention. This can be said to be a politically correct thing a few months ago. However, now they find that this trend has been used by people with intentions and directly become a conspiracy to frame the Mohist family, And they are the most direct part of the plot.


    "I didn''t say it first, but I listened to others..." a dignitary lady cried in front of the eldest grandson queen.


    Empress Chang sun was helpless for a while. She didn''t know how many people came to argue that day. But I found that almost all dignitaries and ladies had made Merton the first to return.


    Princess Changle refused all the dignitaries and ladies to come because she was pregnant.


    "Don''t worry, princess. The maids and maids have invited those women back, but most of them leave a lot of gifts and don''t want to return them." Liu e returned to Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle stroked her stomach and said softly, "then take it. If not, they must be uneasy."


    "The princess is kind!" said Liu E. as the hostess of the Mo mansion, Princess Changle naturally doesn''t lack any gifts. The reason why she is willing to accept them is that the representative is no longer investigated, otherwise they will panic.


    "As long as Merton is all right, everything doesn''t matter." Princess Changle said happily. When he learned that Merton was in danger, he was extremely frightened. Fortunately, the good news came, which made Princess Changle feel how valuable it was to recover.


    Seeing the expression of Princess Changle, Liu e couldn''t help muttering, "it''s true that the son-in-law was just out of danger and risked to pursue, which worried the princess in vain."


    But Princess Changle said frankly, "who said that the princess was worried? Since Merton went to pursue, he must be fully confident. Five thousand cavalry had nothing to do with him, let alone there were only one thousand disabled soldiers."


    Not only princess Changle was full of confidence in Merton, but even the whole Chang''an city was full of confidence in Merton''s pursuit. However, they did not know that Merton was about to face greater difficulties.

 Chapter 1126

    In the vast Gobi desert, a defeated army of more than 1000 people is galloping on its horse. Behind it, a team of 400 people is catching up leisurely.


    The defeated army was the remnant army of Tubo led by Qin Ling. He tried to gather the defeated soldiers and finally got thousands of soldiers. The other nearly 4000 Tubo warriors either died in the battlefield or scattered in the Gobi desert. However, if they were separated in the Gobi desert, there would be only one way to die.


    When he thought of coming, he was in high spirits. Looking back and seeing his own disabled soldiers and defeated generals, he felt a burst of sadness in Qin Ling''s heart. He thought that at the beginning, he led a whole 5000 cavalry, but when he returned, there were only a thousand disabled soldiers and defeated generals left, and Mo Chi, the commander of thousands, died in the war.


    However, this is not even more desperate. What really makes them desperate is that Mo Jiazi personally led 400 Tang troops to pursue and kill, and he pursued and killed them without delay. He didn''t let Lun Qinling have a moment to relax. It was like a hunter chasing a wounded prey, which made Lun Qinling like a thorn in his throat and a thorn in his awn.


    "Kill me!"


    With a roar, the Qin mausoleum commanded more than 1000 Tibetan soldiers to counter charge the Tang army led by mojiazi. However, without hesitation, mojiazi turned and patted his horse and left. At the same time, relying on the steel crossbow with a long range, he shot off the Tubo soldiers.


    "Hoo! Hoo!"


    The hot weather soon stopped the chase. In the hot environment of the Gobi desert, it is impossible to carry out long-term and large-scale operations. Otherwise, the horse in the crotch must be the first to die.


    On Qin Ling''s forehead, he was sweating and took a few mouthfuls to stop his thirst. Seeing the hungry eyes of the war horse under his crotch, he bowed his head and poured the water bag in his hand to the war horse.


    Almost everyone in the whole battlefield is doing the same thing, including the Tang army in the distance.


    "Hateful Mohist family!" roared on the Qin mausoleum. Now he finally knows that his father said that it''s not too much to pay attention to Mohism. Mohism is indeed an extremely difficult enemy with powerful gunpowder, the crystallization of Mohism''s Millennium defense wisdom, and his wisdom, calm and perseverance.


    "Don''t panic, childe. The Tuyuhun tribe at Qiemo is interested in me, Tubo. Once I wait until Qiemo, it will be the end of the Mohist school." Zamu said with a ferocious look. His face was badly burned by the wolf, but he stepped back, but unexpectedly, he miraculously escaped the big explosion.


    "Wait a minute!" on the Qin mausoleum, he couldn''t help but move in his heart. Wait a minute was a retreat arranged by Lu Dongzan for him. However, when he saw the reappearance of the Tang army, he couldn''t help but feel cold in his heart. Mojiazi was like a maggot on his tarsal bone. He always followed him. Once the sun set, the desert air would soon cool. That was the time for mojiazi to attack. Not to mention whether he will fight back when he sees the defeat of Tubo, I''m afraid his thousand remnant army can''t hold out until the moment he reaches Qiemo.


    "The Mohists won''t let us reach Qiemo easily." Lun Qinling shook his head and said.


    Zhamu gritted his teeth and said, "don''t worry, young master. After the villain cuts off the young master himself, you must ensure the safety of the young master."


    Looking at the burning stump, he said bitterly, "even if I can escape safely, I''m afraid thousands of soldiers will be buried in this desert, not to mention that the task has not been completed. What''s the face of me to see my father."


    "Young master, there is a saying in the Han people that keeping the green mountains is not afraid of no firewood. This war is just a trick for us to win the Mojia Zi. We will surely kill the Mojia Zi under the horse next time." Zamu said.


    Lun Qinling shook his head and understood in his heart that the failure of Tubo this time would certainly arouse the vigilance of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid he will never have a chance to attack mojiazi again. Once mojiazi returns to the Tang Dynasty and solves the secret of Tubo plateau reaction, Tubo will usher in the most tragic recovery of the Tang Dynasty.


    "No, I haven''t failed, I still have a chance." Lun Qinling suddenly showed a trace of Madness on his face. His eyes moved away from the faint green space in the East and finally fell into the vast Yellow sand in the West.


    Today, the position of the Tubo remnant army is very special. Qiemo can be reached to the East. There is a beautiful grassland with water and grass. However, to the East is a vast 800 mile vast sea. Once it goes deep into it, it must be ten dead and no life.


    No one thought that Lun Qinling was so crazy that he was ready to venture into the 800 mile sea.


    "Think twice, young master! It''s an eight hundred mile vast sea of ten dead and lifeless!" Zamu was surprised and quickly advised.


    On Qin Ling''s face, he said firmly, "even if I wait until the end of dachimo, I''m afraid I''ll die. It''s better to use the natural danger of 800 miles of desert to bury Mo Jiazi in the yellow sand. We have completed our father''s entrustment."


    On Qin Ling, he knew that mojiazi would not let him go after him all the way, and he was going to use mojiazi''s Revenge psychology to introduce him into the 800 mile sea, and finally drag mojiazi to death, so as to eliminate the future trouble of Tubo.


    "You can''t take risks. It''s better for a villain to replace you. The ink family is like an 800 mile sea, and the childe soldiers quietly rush to Qiemo in two ways." Zamu suggested faithfully.


    "It''s no use. There are only a thousand people left in our army. Once the troops are divided, the Mohists will chase and kill the team that goes to Qiemo first, and then enter the 800 Li sea, which will only increase casualties." on Qin Ling''s mind, it''s clear that the Tubo remnant army can still fight against the firearms prison without dividing the troops. Once the troops are divided, they will be broken by the firearms prison one by one. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty is powerful, and Tuyuhun is not reliable anymore, If a small number of troops flee and wait, the risk is greater.


    "Moreover, if the Mohist was me, the Mohist would only be fooled if I risked my life. This time, the Mohist must die." Lun Qinling looked at the firearm prison in the distance and said coldly.


    As long as mojiazi entered the 800 mile sea, under this Jedi, Lun Qinling thought he could use their understanding of desert oases to drag the firearm prison to death in the 800 mile sea. At the worst, he could die with mojiazi.


    "Drive!"


    With the order of the imperial mausoleum, more than a thousand Tibetan soldiers turned their horses and went in the direction of the 800 Li sea.


    "Young master, the Tibetan remnant army has entered the 800 mile sea!" Zhang Mu saw the trend of the Tibetan remnant army and quickly reported that he was a non combatant and was not injured. Now Merton wants to pursue the Tibetan remnant army, and he will follow him anyway.


    Morton smiled coldly and said, "it''s not that Mo hasn''t walked through the 800 mile vast sea. It''s just what I like about Qinling."


    It is the intention of Zheng and Merton to chase and kill the remnant army of Tubo into the 800 Li Han sea. This time, he will take advantage of the natural danger of the 800 Li Han sea to make Tubo go and never return.


    For a moment, two teams with the same intention stepped into the vast desert.

 Chapter 1127

    "The firearm supervisor was ambushed!" Hou Junji was shocked when he heard the report of the firearm supervisor''s soldiers asking for help.


    Hou Junji was in Gaochang. Although Gaochang was closer to the place where mojiazi was ambushed than Chang''an City, he got the latest news because of the barrier of the Gobi desert.


    "As soon as our army got out of the firearms prison, it was ambushed by five thousand Tubo soldiers. They seemed to know our marching route long ago." the soldier crying for help said.


    "I knew the marching route long ago." Hou Junji was embarrassed. The firearm supervisor was their first batch of victorious soldiers. Although the firearm supervisor had a special status, he thought he had 1000 firearm supervisors to guard him and would not encounter any danger at all.


    However, he did not expect that Tubo should take the initiative to wait outside the Gobi desert. Obviously, it was not a temporary intention, but had long expected that the firearms Regulatory Commission would be the first to return. At present, Hou Junji couldn''t help thinking of the rumor that Princess Changle was pregnant and wanted Merton to return as soon as possible.


    "Damn, I even count my general in it." Hou Junji said with hatred.


    If he didn''t want to sell well in front of Li Shimin, how could he be caught in the trap of the people behind the scenes? Then Hou Junji coldly shouted, "come on, someone in Gaochang is colluding with Tubo. Investigate thoroughly immediately."


    Soon, Gaochang, which had just been released, was in a tense situation again. All Hu merchants involved in Tubo were questioned by Tang Jun one by one.


    Even among the Tang army, the newly arrived Anxi Prefecture guards were among the Tang army''s inventory, except for those who interceded with Hou Junji.


    "What? Mohou is in danger." the three messengers were shocked and said. They were the first to bring the news of Princess Changle''s pregnancy and were the first to be investigated.


    However, their suspicion was soon ruled out. After all, they had been running all the way. Where could they collude with Tubo? At most, they were used by others. The news came that Princess Changle was pregnant.


    "I''m sorry, mohou!" said master Qiao with a sad face.


    Kong huisuo could not help but look gloomy. Tubo''s ability to accurately ambush the Mohist school must be involved in the internal forces of the Tang Dynasty. There is a trend of contention between the Mohist School and Confucianism, and the suspicion of Confucianism is not small. If it was before, he certainly did not believe that Confucianism would do such things. However, it was related to the dispute among 100 families. Even he dared not say that Confucianism was 100% innocent.


    In addition, the whole Anxi Prefecture guards were all in a panic. After all, colluding with foreigners was a felony. However, in only two days, Hou Junji ended his investigation and released them.


    "It''s over!" the people couldn''t help but wonder. They thought it would be difficult to escape this time. Everyone knows the importance of the firearms supervisor and mohou. Now they were ambushed by Tubo, which is a big thing, but they didn''t expect that the investigation would end in just two days.


    "You are very lucky, because mohou is all right," Hou Junji said meaningfully. This time, he hastily ended the investigation and only made an example of a few Hu merchants who delivered messages for Tubo.


    "Mo Hou is all right?" Qiao Shiwang exclaimed, but they knew that when Mo Hou left, there were only a thousand people, while the Tubo cavalry was a full five thousand people. Everyone thought that Mo Hou must be bad this time.


    However, when they came out to inquire, the final result surprised them. Mohou was not only fine, but the firearms supervisor greatly defeated 5000 Tubo cavalry.


    "Mohist is worthy of Mohist!" when they heard that Merton worked miracles again, the people of Anxi Du''s guard shouted happily. If something really happened to mohou and the firearm supervisor, they would be punished even if they were innocent. Now that Merton is all right, they can naturally make big and small things.


    Not only did Qiao Shiwang and others rejoice, but Hou Junji was even more fortunate. He issued the military order for Merton to set out. If Merton had an accident, I''m afraid he would be the first to be held accountable. He spared the anxidu palace guards lightly, which also meant to minimize the impact of the matter.


    Of course, the final responsibility must be put on Tubo. All this is Tubo''s fault.


    "Tubo!" Hou Junji couldn''t help but look dignified. When he heard the news of Tuyuhun, he was shocked in a cold sweat. Fortunately, there was a firearm prison, which allowed the Tang army to break through Gaochang in the shortest time. Otherwise, once the Tang army and Gaochang had a long confrontation in the western regions or lost their troops, Tubo and Western Turks would surely attack like wolves, At that time, the western expedition army will be in a very disadvantageous position.


    However, what surprised him more was the firearm supervisor. The firearm supervisor could break the city in one attack, and the defense could be one enemy and five, and he won a complete victory. He had never encountered a force that could make the attack and defense to the extreme, and the firearm supervisor did it.


    Of course, the firearm supervision is not without shortcomings, that is, gunpowder. Once the firearm supervision runs out of gunpowder, the firearm supervision may be at the bottom of the Tang Dynasty, but as long as there is gunpowder, the firearm supervision will be in an invincible position.


    However, Hou Junji still looked up to the firearms prison. Today''s firearms prison is once again in a desperate situation, that is, 800 miles of the vast sea.


    In the vast desert, the two armies are constantly confronting and entangled. In the hot environment, the water sources carried by the two armies are declining at an alarming rate.


    At this time, their biggest opponent is not each other, but the extremely hot desert environment.


    "Young master, you can''t chase, or we''ll all die in the desert." Zhang Mu''s lips were dry and cracked and advised bitterly. He also went through the Gobi desert with the army for two thousand miles. Naturally, he knew the crisis of water shortage. However, this is an 800 mile vast sea. The severity of water shortage is deeper in the Gobi desert. If you don''t pay attention, they may be wiped out.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "we are short of water, but the Tubo remnant soldiers are even more short of water. When I came, I brought more than half of the water source of the firearm prison, while the Tubo remnant soldiers fled all the way and fought for water. They can''t."


    Today, the firearms warden and the Tubo remnant army are like living in a poison circle together. They all rely on medicine and blood. However, it is obvious that the firearms warden who are well prepared to pursue again carry more medicine.


    However, Zhang Mu was worried and said, "the purpose of Tubo''s trip is young master. Now the Tubo remnant army does not go to Qiemo city with abundant water and grass, but deliberately introduces the firearm prison into the 800 mile vast sea, just to die with us. We may persist longer than the Tubo remnant army, but our water can''t last until we return."


    Zhang Mu is right. Maybe the firearm supervisor can beat the water fight, but it is difficult to return safely. Today''s firearms prison is like a drug ring everywhere. It may be better than its opponents, but it is absolutely impossible to carry drugs to the safe area.


    The officers and men of the firearm prison were silent for a while. They were not big soldiers who didn''t know big words. Instead, they were rare people with both literature and martial arts in the Tang army. Naturally, they knew the risks Zhang Mu said.


    Merton looked at a group of silent firearms officers and soldiers, suddenly smiled and said, "do you believe in this sacrifice? Since this sacrifice has brought you into the desert, we are sure to bring you out safely."


    All the officers and men in charge of firearms suddenly stared at Merton. If someone else said this, the officers and men would scoff, but Merton was not. He is the most magical Mohist in the Tang Dynasty. He has repeatedly created miracles and has the experience of going deep into the 800 mile desert.


    "As indicated by the wine offering sword, we will die together." a group of soldiers shouted. Tubo ambushed the firearms warden, causing heavy damage to the firearms warden. Now that they have Merton''s guarantee, the fire of revenge suddenly ignited in all people''s hearts. This time, we must let these Tubo remnant troops stay in this desert.


    "Pursuit!" Merton pulled out his long sword and shouted fiercely.

 Chapter 1128

    "Kill!"


    The firearm supervisor and the Tubo disabled army are constantly pestering and harassing in the desert. It is obvious that the firearm supervisor occupies the advantage of weapons and constantly consumes the Tubo disabled army. For a while, the Tubo disabled army is damaged at an amazing speed.


    "Hateful Mojia Zi!" seeing the Mojia Zi who is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, I can''t stop my anger about Qinling, but I can''t help it.


    He is not a reckless man, but he has another intention to plunge into the vast sea. If mojiazi doesn''t chase him, he can enter the Tubo plateau from Khotan. This is his other way out. He is the son of Tubo prime minister. His future is bright. If he can survive, he naturally doesn''t want to be dried up in the desert,


    If mojiazi catches up, he will lead mojiazi into the hinterland of the desert and drag mojiazi to death with 800 miles of the vast sea.


    "Stand up where you fall."


    Although Lun Qinling didn''t know this sentence, it didn''t prevent him from doing so. In the ambush, he was defeated by mojiazi in the sand. Now he wants to use the vast sand to defeat mojiazi.


    "Mojiazi, do you think I have no way back when I enter the desert?" said Lun Qinling with a sneer. With one arm, a falcon suddenly rose to the sky. This falcon is a gift from the Khan of Western Turks. It can not only send messages, but also find oases in the desert. This is also the basis for the Qin mausoleum to dare to enter the 800 mile vast sea.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "The Qin mausoleum is really hateful!"


    Outside a small oasis, Zhang Mu couldn''t help looking at the messy oasis. The oasis was small, but thousands of war horses of the Tubo remnant army ate up the grassland. After the water source in the center of the oasis was taken away by the Tubo remnant army, it is reasonable to dig down to obtain water source. However, the Qinling mausoleum is extremely insidious. It not only excretes a lot of human and horse pollution on the oasis, Many war horses were slaughtered throughout the oasis. When the officers and soldiers of the firearm supervisor chased the oasis, the whole oasis was stinking in the hot weather.


    "Young master, why don''t we choose a far place to dig deeply, and we should be able to dig out water." Zhang Mu suggested. He is a man of Mohism. Naturally, he knows the well drilling technology of Mohism. This place is originally an oasis. There must be water under the ground.


    Merton shook his head and said, "we don''t have proper drilling tools. We don''t have time to dig out water. Besides, I''m afraid the imperial mausoleum won''t give us time to get water."


    As soon as Merton''s voice fell, he heard a report from the soldiers: "I''ll report to the wine worship Lord. Thirty miles away in the East, I found the remnant army of Tubo."


    On the Qin mausoleum, hawks and falcons helped, while Merton also had binoculars. The two sides kept pestering. As Merton expected, the Tubo remnant army immediately chased after receiving supplies and occupied the East. It was obvious that they wanted to drive the firearm prison to the hinterland of the desert.


    "Sure enough, what the young master expected." Zhang Mu frowned. Now the Tubo remnant army took the lead in obtaining water, and the water source of the firearm prison has been almost consumed. Suddenly, they exchanged the offensive and defensive momentum with the Tubo remnant army.


    "Stay away from the edge and go to Tulun river!" Merton ordered.


    All the officers and men in charge of firearms couldn''t help but brighten their eyes. It is well known that Tulun river is the place where the wine worshippers pursue King Tuyuhun. It is a large oasis. As long as they arrive at Tulun River, they will no longer lack water.


    The trend of the firearm supervisor soon spread to the ears of Lun Qinling. Lun Qinling sneered: "if you want to escape to Tulun River, there is no way. The whole army must chase the firearm supervisor to the hinterland of the desert."


    The Tubo remnant army got the water source, was in high spirits, and pursued it with all its strength. Even the pursuit firearms prison regardless of casualties should drive the firearms prison to the hinterland of the desert.


    Gradually, the two armies had gone deep into the hinterland of the desert. However, on the Qin mausoleum, they were frightened to find that the firearms prison did not seem to be greatly affected, and the combat effectiveness remained unchanged.


    "How can there still be water in the firearm prison?" on Qin Ling''s frown, according to his estimation, even if the firearm prison stabbed a horse to drink blood, the water source should be cut off now, but now the firearm prison still insists.


    "Unless the MOH family finds the water source," Zamu Ning said again.


    On Qin Ling flatly retorted, "it''s impossible. We''ve been entangled with the firearm supervisor. It''s impossible for the firearm supervisor to have a chance to find the oasis."


    "That''s the firearms prison," Zamu said flatly.


    Lun Qinling nodded. He saw that the fire weapon prison was at a dead end. As long as they insisted, mojiazi would be buried in the desert. If he couldn''t see mojiazi''s head, he would have trouble sleeping and eating.


    However, when night fell and the heat went away, the desert became cool. The firearm supervisor quietly selected the camp, but there was no fear of water shortage. However, one by one, he took out the long swords. For a moment, the sword light of the whole firearm supervisor camp flickered. If an outsider was here, he would be very confused. The Tubo soldiers didn''t come after him. How could they all pick up weapons.


    I saw that the firearm officers and soldiers skillfully hung up the swords in their hands. Not only swords, but also armor, as long as they were iron, were all exposed in the air.


    As night fell, the weather in the desert was very special. It was very hot during the day, but it was very cool at night. Soon, small dewdrops condensed on the swords and armor.


    Zhang Mu skillfully picked up a piece of baidiezi to absorb the dew on the iron ware. One or two swords may only wet baidiezi, but the dew on hundreds of iron ware can make baidiezi wet.


    Zhang Mu saw that Bai diezi was wet. He twisted the Bai diezi in his hand over a barrel. He saw a clatter, and a stream of water flowed into the barrel. A firearm supervisor beside him regarded it as a treasure and poured the collected dew into the kettle, while Zhang Mu continued to collect dew with Bai diezi. This work will last all night. Once the sun rises, The dew will soon disappear.


    The firearm officers and men heard the sound of water, which was like the sound of nature. They couldn''t help looking at Merton in the middle with admiration.


    Yes, this method of fetching water is Merton''s card and his confidence in daring to enter the 800 mile vast sea. Merton did not use this method when the whole army was in crisis. Instead, as soon as he entered the desert, he collected dew at night and kept collecting dew. It was the harvest of dew every night. Even if there was no water supply from the oasis, he still survived.


    "The method of offering wine to the Lord to get water is really amazing, and his subordinates admire it." a firearm supervisor said sincerely that the desert itself is synonymous with drought, and Merton was able to get water out of thin air in the extremely arid desert. This method can be described as amazing.


    Other soldiers also nodded. At the beginning, they followed Merton into the desert out of their trust in Merton. The facts proved that they had no wrong faith in the Merton family.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "it''s just the technique of collecting dew. It''s not as mysterious as you said."


    "Dew?" all the soldiers sighed. Everyone knew that it was dew, but it was on grass leaves. There was no grass in the desert. The Mo family had a whim. They used swords instead of vegetation, and the effect was better. The dew collected by a sword overnight was enough for a soldier to need for a day, which was a life-saving medicine in the desert!


    "Water vapor meets condensation beads, which is just the application of the secret brewing technique of Mohism," Merton explained.


    Zhang Mu couldn''t help sighing that the secret brewing technique was no longer a secret in the Tang Dynasty, but who could have thought that this technique could fetch water and save lives in the desert. I''m afraid it was the young master who could use the ink technique in the world.

 Chapter 1129

    "Childe, we can''t pursue any more! Otherwise we can''t return to Tulun river." Zamu frowned at the remaining 700 Tibetan remnant army. The continuous pursuit has killed and injured a lot of Tibetan remnant army, and the water source is greatly consumed. If this goes on, I''m afraid they will be wiped out in the desert.


    On Qin Ling''s face, he hesitated and said, "but the firearms prison is over."


    Seeing the victory at hand, he was very unwilling to give up on Qinling, but the current situation of the Tibetan remnant army was very bad. Not only the water source was about to run out, but also the food was almost consumed. The Tibetan remnant army had begun to kill horses these days. However, the desert was deserted, and the Tibetan remnant army could only eat horse meat raw, What really can''t hold on is the war horse. The Tibetan war horse only eats some grass in the oasis, and the rest depends on the forage it carries.


    This is not only true for the Tubo remnant army, but also for the firearm supervisor. However, the firearm supervisor carries beans with sufficient heat, and it is better to carry one person and two horses at the beginning of the day.


    Zhamu advised: "we just need to get close to Tulun river. First, we can get supplies first. Second, we just need to block the mojiazi outside Tulun River, which is enough to let the mojiazi die in the desert."


    On Qin Ling''s unwillingness, he said, "we all know how difficult the Mohist school is. I''m afraid we''ll regret it all our life if we lose this opportunity.


    Zhamu said calmly, "if you want to know whether the mojiazi is at the end of a powerful crossbow, just let me retreat and see if the firearms supervisor is coming, and we''ll know if we have a try."


    On Qin Ling''s mind, he nodded. If mojiazi immediately looked for water, it would be a dead end. If mojiazi continued to entangle with them, I''m afraid mojiazi still had water.


    The desire for survival made him no longer hesitate, so he ordered to turn his horse around and go towards Tulun river. After all, if he insisted, I''m afraid hundreds of soldiers would also be buried in the yellow sand.


    "It''s too late to go!" Merton sneered when he saw the retreat of the Tibetan remnant army in the telescope.


    With the method of condensing water, the firearms supervisor can persist in the desert for a long time, and the Tubo remnant army is doomed to decline day by day. This battle is doomed from the moment it enters the desert, but it only makes Lun Qinling find an oasis and survive for a while.


    "Don''t hesitate to chase!" Merton waved his big hand, stretched out his hand to feed water and bean material to the jueying shadow under his crotch, and stepped on the yellow sand to chase after the Tibetan remnant army.


    Other firearms officers and soldiers followed suit. Soon, the relationship between hunters and prey reversed again.


    "Damn it, how could the MOH family have water." on Qin Ling, when he saw the firearms officers and soldiers chased not far away, he felt powerless.


    He clearly has been entangled with the mojiazi again and is convinced that the mojiazi has not found the oasis. However, the water source of the firearms prison has not been exhausted and maintains a certain combat power.


    On the contrary, the water source of the Tubo remnant army is gradually exhausted and has gradually lost its combat power. Lun Qinling has obviously felt that the war horses under his crotch are weak. Moreover, in the sand, it is not conducive to the war horses to run, and the marching speed is greatly reduced.


    After the two armies moved forward, the remaining Tibetan troops retreated towards Tulun River, while the firearm supervisor entangled and sneaked attacks all the way. In just a few exchanges, the firearm supervisor has caused great trauma to the remaining Tibetan troops who are short of water. Now there are less than 500 people left, and its strength is almost the same as that of the firearm supervisor.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Childe, the water source of the firearm prison has not been exhausted, and most of our water sources have been consumed. We must reach Tulun River as soon as possible, otherwise we will be dragged to death in the desert by mojiazi." Zha Mu Ning''s important way. The Mohists tried to drag them into the desert, but obviously they could still hold on, but the Tubo remnant army could not hold on. If they continue like this, I''m afraid they will be wiped out in the desert.


    "But we are at least two days away from Tulun river." Lun Qin Ling said anxiously.


    Because of the continuous entanglement of the firearms prison, the speed of the Tibetan remnant army has been greatly reduced. In addition, the water required for the continuous fighting has greatly increased. The water of the Tibetan remnant army has been consumed, and there is still a long distance to Tulun river.


    "At present, there is only one way. My subordinates are willing to break up for the childe. The childe quickly rushed to Tulun river. Tulun river is now the base of Khotan. He certainly dare not offend Tubo and will cover the childe to withdraw to Tubo." Zamu looked determined and handed the water bag with only a little water in his hand to Lun Qinling.


    Other Tubo soldiers followed suit one after another. The remaining 500 Tubo remnant army finally assembled a 50 member escort team for the Lun Qin mausoleum. Hundreds of others turned around without hesitation and rushed towards the chasing firearms supervisor.


    Looking at the determined soldiers on his face, he couldn''t help choking on Qinling, but he still held back. It''s an extravagant hope to cry in this arid desert.


    "Go!" Lun Qinling waved his hand and urged his horse to go directly in the direction of turunchuan, and there was a cry of killing behind him.


    "Break the tail to survive?" Merton couldn''t help humming when he saw the Tibetan remnant army charging. They had been entangled in the desert for too long. It''s time to end.


    "Three sections of steel crossbow!" Merton waved his big hand. Even in the desert, the formation of the Tang army was still as neat as a flash. In an instant, crossbows and arrows flew to the Tibetan remnant army like a dense arrow rain.


    In this desert, the power of cavalry was weakened to the extreme. Coupled with the fatigue of people and horses, the speed was even slower. However, the steel crossbow of the firearm supervisor was still sharp. Suddenly, the disabled Tubo soldiers turned their horses.


    However, the remaining Tubo army was extremely fierce and continued to charge in the rain of arrows, with the intention of dragging firearms into the desert with the last strength.


    "Grenade!" as Merton drank again, an explosion sounded.


    When the Tubo remnant army and the firearms officers and soldiers fought hand to hand, less than half were left, and they were soon surrounded by the firearms officers and soldiers.


    "Plop!" the wood counting the swords fell down heavily, and his eyes fell to the ground. This time he was not lucky, but his heart was quiet, because the Lun Qin mausoleum should have fled far away at the moment.


    "Young master, the imperial mausoleum has escaped!" Zhang Mu said anxiously.


    Merton sneered at his speech and said, "on the Qin mausoleum, you are smart and confused for a time. You are wrong. You shouldn''t run for your life alone, stab your horse and drink blood, and continue to pursue on the Qin mausoleum."


    The assassins drinking blood here in Merton are not the war horses of the firearm prison, but the war horses of the Tibetan remnant army. There are hundreds of war horses of the Tibetan remnant army. Even if there are war horses fleeing on the battlefield, the firearm prison captured 200. Aren''t these 200 war horses like sending them 200 pots of water from the Qin mausoleum?


    The whole firearm officers and men cheered. Although the horse blood was bloody, it was a rare thirst quencher for the thirsty firearm officers and men.


    Soon, with the wailing of Tubo war horses, the whole firearms prison was like a new life.


    "Keep chasing!" Merton shouted, wiping the horse blood from the corners of his mouth,


    All of a sudden, the whole firearms warden immediately quickened his pace and went towards Tulun river. This time, Lun Qin mausoleum must not escape.

 Chapter 1130

    Turunchuan!


    Turunchuan was originally a rare large oasis in the desert. When Tuyuhun was powerful, it was Tuyuhun''s territory. However, after voyun died, Murong Shun''s prestige decreased greatly after he succeeded to the throne. Not only did Tuyuhun''s tribes refuse, but even Khotan and other countries have no fear of Tuyuhun, so Khotan also took the opportunity to annex turunchuan.


    Tulun river has beautiful scenery in summer, with grassland and lakes, which is like a pure land in the desert.


    However, this pure land was broken by a sudden sound of horses'' hoofs. Lun Qinling led 50 Tibetan guards out of the yellow sand.


    Seeing the TURUN river with abundant water and grass, he couldn''t help showing his ecstasy about the Qin mausoleum. As long as he arrived at TURUN River, he could get sufficient supplies and even escape back to Tubo through Khotan.


    "Whoosh!"


    A sharp sound of crossbows and arrows came, and suddenly a Tibetan guard''s joy solidified on his face and fell down from his horse.


    On the Qin mausoleum, when he looked around, he was not afraid of the dead. He saw that the firearm supervisor came again. It is conceivable that hundreds of soldiers such as Zhamu have been buried in the whole desert.


    At the moment, Lun Qinling no longer had the spirit to lead 5000 cavalry, nor did he lead Mohist Zi into the 800 mile vast sea. Now he lost all his cards and the only thing he wanted was to run for his life.


    "Yes, as long as I escape to Tulun River, the Khotan tribe there will certainly save me, otherwise my father will raze Khotan to the ground." on Qin Ling''s great joy, he hurried to the tribe in the center of Tulun river.


    At the moment, the nomadic tribe also found two groups of invaders. Suddenly, the horn sounded a rapid sound. Tribal soldiers gathered one after another on horseback, and soon thousands of Khotan cavalry gathered to talk about Qin mausoleum and firearms prison.


    On seeing the Khotan cavalry dispatched, the Qin mausoleum was overjoyed and hurried to approach the Khotan cavalry.


    "Whoosh!"


    There was a sharp arrow falling in front of the Lun Qin mausoleum, which woke the Lun Qin mausoleum from ecstasy. No one knew whether it was the enemy''s performance. Therefore, according to the Khotan cavalry, both forces were enemies.


    On the Qin mausoleum, he quickly stationed at the horse and shouted, "help me, I''m the son of Tubo prime minister on the Qin mausoleum."


    The head of the Khotan tribe was shocked. He was the son of ludongzan. If he was in danger and didn''t save him, I''m afraid the whole Khotan would bear the anger of Tubo.


    At that moment, the Khotan leader waved his hand, and the Khotan cavalry stopped pointing their bows and arrows at Lun Qinling and others.


    On the Qin mausoleum, he couldn''t help smiling. Khotan really didn''t dare to offend Tubo. This time, he could finally be saved. Even his heart had begun to plan how to drag Khotan into the water to deal with the firearms prison.


    "Young master, it''s not good. On the Qin mausoleum, he is asking for help from Khotan." Zhang Mu exclaimed. Now the firearms prison and the remnant army of Tubo are at the end of a powerful crossbow. The addition of thousands of Khotan cavalry will determine the war situation.


    Merton could not help humming. He reached out to pick up a grenade, lit it with a fire fold, threw it, and threw it into an open space directly in front of him.


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, a huge roar resounded through the pure desert land of Tulun river.


    "Gunpowder!"


    The leader of Khotan tribe could not help but delay. The man who pursued the son of Tubo prime minister had identified himself with gunpowder, that is, Tang Jun.


    Now that the battle of Gaochang has ended, naturally it has spread all over the western regions. The countries in the western regions are not surprised by the outcome of Gaochang. After all, little Gaochang wants to fight Tang Dynasty as much as ants shake trees. The real shock to the countries in the western regions is the weapon of Tang Dynasty to break Gaochang city - gunpowder, It was the firearms prison led by the famous Mo Jiazi of the Tang Dynasty who had gunpowder.


    "The famous Mohist in the Tang Dynasty is chasing and killing the son of the Prime Minister of Tubo." the head of the Khotan tribe was shocked in his heart. Both of them are figures he can''t offend. Tubo is adjacent to Khotan and can look down on Khotan by relying on the Tibetan Plateau. However, the reputation of the Tang Dynasty is even better. First, he defeated Tuyuhun, subdued and allowed his head to return, and now he destroyed Gaochang, which shocked the whole western region.


    The Khotan tribal leader''s mind turned sharply, and with a quick wave of his big hand, the entire Khotan cavalry retreated one after another to distance themselves from the pursuit sides.


    On Qin Ling''s ecstatic heart suddenly cooled down. He didn''t expect that Khotan would die. Isn''t he afraid of Tubo''s revenge?


    The head of Khotan tribe was helpless. Tubo was indeed very close to Khotan, but Khotan just got the news that Tubo of Tuyuhun had been defeated and returned to the plateau. It can be seen that the Tang Bingfeng was even better.


    Merton couldn''t help but show a sneer. The last time he faced the Khotan cavalry directly, he showed the flag of the Tang Dynasty. This time, he showed his own grenade, which seemed to be better used.


    "Don''t regret it in Khotan!" exclaimed the emperor in horror.


    The leaders of Khotan tribe are not moved at all. If Tubo invades, Khotan can also use the city wall to resist. If the Tang Dynasty wants to attack Khotan with gunpowder, Khotan, like Gaochang, can only destroy the country.


    With Gaochang''s example, Khotan certainly doesn''t want to offend Tubo, but it doesn''t want to offend Datang. The best way is not to help each other.


    "Kill!" Merton shouted coldly.


    All the officers and men in charge of firearms were holding steel crossbows. Soon, the remaining 50 Tubo remnant troops fell to the ground with arrows.


    "I surrender, I surrender!" on the death of Qinling Mountain, he shouted quickly. As long as he could live, he believed that his father would try his best to save him.


    However, the answer to him was Mohist''s determined crossbow and arrow. On the unwilling fall of Qinling, his living value was far greater than that of the dead. However, Mohist did not hesitate to shoot him.


    Merton''s heart was cold. He killed so many firearm officers and soldiers on the Qinling mausoleum. This revenge can only be solved by sacrificing the head of the Qinling mausoleum.


    Moreover, they are in the territory of Khotan. Although there are only a thousand Khotan cavalry, the firearm supervisor and the Tubo remnant army have been hovering in the desert for many days, which is the end of a powerful crossbow. Only by cutting down the Qin mausoleum cleanly can we break Khotan''s heart of repetition.


    Sure enough, the leader of Khotan tribe sighed when he saw that lunqin mausoleum was killed. Now Datang is the winning party, and the overall situation has been determined.


    "Yuchi Wen of Khotan sees Mojia Hou!" the leader of Khotan tribe came forward alone and bowed his hands. When he saw Mojia Zi''s face, he couldn''t help sighing. It was this face that chased and killed Fuyun outside Tulun river a few years ago. He followed Yuchi Ding, king of Khotan, and confronted him. Unexpectedly, he could see Mojia Zi again in Tulun river.


    Merton looked at Wei Chiwen, nodded and said, "you have made a correct choice, but Datang will never treat your friends badly. I will keep today''s affairs confidential. On the Qin mausoleum, I killed it in the 800 mile vast sea."


    Wei Chiwen was so happy that he hurriedly said, "thank you, marquis Mo!"


    As long as Tang personally said that ludongzan died in the desert, Tubo naturally could not blame Khotan. In this way, Khotan''s crime of not saving his life was naturally covered up.


    "Marquis Mo is tired all the way. Please go to the tribe to have a rest." Wei Chiwen felt great trouble and stretched out his hand to invite him.


    However, Merton refused Wei Chiwen''s kindness, shook his head and said, "no, Princess Changle is about to give birth. I need to rush back to Chang''an city immediately. I just need to supply some water and horse materials and return immediately."


    Wei Chiwen was moved. The Khotan royal family admired the culture of the Tang Dynasty very much. The love story between Princess Changle and Mohist Zi naturally spread to Khotan. At that time, he bowed and said, "there will be no mohou in Khotan."


    At present, Merton led the firearm officers and men to the Oasis Center of Tulun river. After drinking in the clear lake, he carried as much water as possible, and the war horse who had not seen grass for many days ate the grass until his stomach rolled round.


    After all this, Merton led the firearms officers and men to the East without stopping. This route was the route he took during the western expedition to Tuyuhun, which can be said to be a familiar road.


    Seeing the figure of the fire monitor disappear into the desert, Wei Chiwen can''t help looking complex. Now it''s really an eventful time. Datang is powerful and powerful in the western regions, while Tubo is unified in the plateau. It''s powerful and ambitious, but Khotan is weak and has few people. In the long run, I''m afraid Khotan''s situation is not good!


    "Leader, it''s said in the western regions that mojiazi holds the secret recipe of gunpowder in the Tang Dynasty. Just now, mojiazi just came out of the desert. It''s a heaven given opportunity. We must be able to defeat the firearm prison and seize the secret recipe of gunpowder in one fell swoop." a centurion after Yuchi''s tattoo bewitched.


    "Defeat the firearm warden and capture the Mohists? Why do you think the discussion of Qinling was pursued and killed by the Mohists?" Wei Chiwen looked dignified. It was invincible gunpowder. Wei Chiwen was not moved, but the current situation of the discussion of Qinling calmed him down.


    "On the Qin mausoleum is also for gunpowder?" the centurion opened his eyes.


    Wei Chiwen nodded. According to the rumor in the western regions, today''s Mohists should take part in the battle of Gaochang, while Tubo should be in Tuyuhun. They are thousands of miles apart. However, there is only one possibility for two people who are not related to each other to fight in the desert, and it is a great benefit, and gunpowder is the greatest possibility.


    "And the Qin mausoleum was defeated!" Wei Chi Wenning said seriously. If Tubo wanted gunpowder, it was naturally impossible to send only these 50 people to defeat the Mo family who had gunpowder, it would be possible to have several times the force of the firearm supervisor. Rao was so. The Qin mausoleum was still defeated. It can be seen how powerful gunpowder is.


    While the centurion was shocked, he coveted the power of gunpowder.


    Wei Chiwen shook his head and said, "as soon as Mojia Zi entered Tulun River, he used gunpowder to show his identity. It can be seen that Mojia Zi still has gunpowder in his hand. It''s not easy for us to defeat the firearm supervisor."


    How dare he act rashly when he is not sure how much gunpowder he has in his hand.


    "What''s more, mojiazi was not unprepared for us. After killing Lun Qin mausoleum, our leader invited him to go to the tribe to rest, but mojiazi wanted to leave immediately on the grounds that Princess Changle was in labor. He only asked to replenish water and feed the war horses. He didn''t relax his vigilance even when replenishing water and horse materials. It can be seen that mojiazi was always on guard against us, and even after replenishing water horse materials , he immediately stepped into the desert. "Wei Chiwen said helplessly.


    From beginning to end, the Mohists did not give Yuchi Wen any chance to leave tulunchuan cleanly.


    "We didn''t help Tubo, but the Mohist family was still so defensive against us?" the centurion looked angry, but he forgot that he wanted to fight Mohist gunpowder just now.


    Wei Chiwen sighed, "if the Mohists can have today, how can they gain a false reputation."


    Since entering Tulun River and finally stepping eastward into the desert, the mojiazi has never revealed any flaws. Wei Chiwen has no idea about gunpowder and can only watch the firearm prison leave.


    It was not until nightfall that the firearm supervisor who left turunchuan saw that there were no Khotan cavalry coming, that Merton was relieved and ordered to camp.


    It is necessary to harm people and prevent people. The temptation of gunpowder is so great that even Tubo are excited about it. How can Merton rest assured of Khotan? Maybe the tribes in Khotan live more comfortably, but the camp in the desert can make Merton feel secure.


    Not only was Merton at ease, but the whole firearm prison crowd cheered. This time, the firearm prison traveled 800 miles across the vast sea and killed Lun Qinling, and the whole 5000 Tibetan cavalry were wiped out, which made the firearm prison officers and soldiers proud of their great revenge.


    Merton looked at the laughing firearm supervisor and Zhang Mu, who kept collecting dew. He couldn''t help but raise his mouth. I''m afraid the western expedition of the firearm supervisor was over. In fact, he didn''t just shirk Wei Chiwen. What he had to do next was to rush back to Datang as soon as possible.


    Before Princess Changle gives birth, he will return to Chang''an city.

 Chapter 1131

    Desert smoke!


    In the 800 mile vast sea, the firearm supervisor was marching alone. This time, with Merton''s method of taking water from the desert, the firearm supervisor did not need to stab a horse to drink blood. He trudged all the way, and finally there was a green grass and two green grass in front.


    The firearm supervisors were shocked, and immediately accelerated their pace. Soon, more and more green appeared, and a large piece of green grass appeared in front.


    "Hoo!"


    Finally out of the 800 mile sea, Merton and the firearm supervisor suddenly felt a sense of survival, and the depressed sense of urgency in the desert suddenly disappeared.


    "Young master, how do we go back to Datang next!" Zhang Mu looked at the East and the north and asked tangled.


    Nowadays, there are two ways for the firearms supervision. One is to follow the Tuyuhun road of the western expedition, take Tuyuhun to Lanzhou and then return to Chang''an city. This road is closer, and the other is to go north, go through Qiemo to Yumen pass, and then return to Chang''an City from Yumen pass. This road is much farther.


    "Let''s go!" Merton said firmly.


    It seems a long way to go, but there are few tribes along the way. Nearly 400 firearm supervisors are enough to protect themselves. However, Tuyuhun''s situation is unstable. Merton doesn''t know what Tuyuhun''s situation is. If Tuyuhun still has tribes interested in Tubo, I''m afraid the firearm supervisor will get out of the tiger''s mouth and enter the wolf''s nest.


    Although the distance is longer, the victory is safety. Once you reach Yumen pass and set foot on the brick road, you can reach Chang''an City as fast as possible. I''m afraid it takes less time to calculate.


    After determining the return route, the firearms warden immediately accelerated forward. The flat grassland is a paradise for war horses. For a moment, the firearms warden marched rapidly and passed by two sporadic herdsmen to a small tribe. However, when these small tribe herdsmen saw the firearms warden formation, they couldn''t help thinking of the rumors from Qiemo city and immediately urged their horses to Qiemo city.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Lord sacrifice, herdsmen are following us!" a soldier reported quietly.


    Merton frowned. When the firearm warden first met the herdsman, he felt tracked. The closer he was to Qiemo City, the stronger the feeling became.


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, several firearm supervisors quietly dispersed, lurked aside and ambushed quietly.


    When the herdsman noticed something was wrong, he immediately pointed several steel crossbows at him and felt the heavy killing intention on the crossbow. The herdsman was not set up by his hair and knelt down to surrender.


    A group of firearm supervisors rushed up, captured him and brought him to Merton.


    "Say! Why are you following us?" Merton asked coldly. After the ambush of 5000 Tubo cavalry, the firearms supervisor has been a little confused. Now it''s more nervous to meet someone to follow, let alone they are in Tuyuhun.


    However, it''s a pity that the herdsman ulaulaulaulaulah screamed and spoke Qiang language, which no one could understand.


    "I asked them to follow." suddenly a familiar voice came with the rapid sound of horses'' hoofs.


    When Merton looked intently, it turned out to be a team of Tang cavalry, headed by Su dingfang.


    Seeing that Merton and the firearm supervisor were safe, Su dingfang flew off his horse and said with great joy, "it''s great that Marquis Merton returned safely."


    "Brother Su, why are you waiting?" Merton asked with a sigh of relief when he saw his familiar old friend.


    Su dingfang jumped off his horse and explained: "brother Mo didn''t know anything. After brother Mo went to pursue lunqin mausoleum, the imperial court sent Su to meet brother Mo, but he didn''t expect brother Mo to pursue into the 800 mile sea. Su guessed that brother Mo would surely go to Qimo after he returned, so the armies sent orders to the surrounding tribes in Qimo to report any trace of the firearm supervisor immediately.


    Su dingfang said, reaching out and throwing a bag of gold to the stalking herdsman. This is his reward.


    When the herdsman opened it, he was overjoyed and left. With this money, his tribe can live a rich life.


    "Thank you, brother Su!" Morton was moved.


    "It''s just a small matter! By the way, I heard that Marquis Mo went to pursue thousands of Tubo remnant troops. I don''t know..." Su dingfang hesitated when he saw the complete return of the firearms officers and soldiers.


    Merton couldn''t help showing a trace of pride and said, "thousands of Tibetan remnant troops have been buried in the yellow sand, and the first evil theory Qinling has been killed."


    "Pursuit for thousands of miles! One thousand broke five thousand! The legendary experience of mohou really made Su envy."


    When Su dingfang heard the legendary story of Merton''s pursuit of thousands of miles and collecting dew from the desert out of thin air, he couldn''t help but sigh. Compared with Merton''s wonderful pursuit of thousands of miles, he has been escorting grain and grass and doing logistics work, which is a little boring.


    Merton naturally felt the loss of Su dingfang and comforted: "brother Su is worried. One day, brother Su''s name will be famous in the western regions."


    In history, Su dingfang was a late bloomer. Now with Merton''s recommendation, Su dingfang has been much better than his official career in history.


    "I hope one day!" Su dingfang said with a strong smile.


    After meeting Su dingfang, Merton and the officers and men of the firearm supervisor relaxed completely. After a night''s rest in Qiemo City, they immediately returned to Yumen pass together.


    "The sacrifice is back!" when Merton and the firearm supervisor arrived at Yumen pass, the wounded soldiers who had been waiting at Yumen pass couldn''t help cheering.


    "The Qinling mausoleum has been ambushed and killed, and the whole army of five thousand Tibetan cavalry has been annihilated, and our firearm prison has taken revenge." when Merton made the results of this trip public, the whole firearm prison people couldn''t help cheering and annihilating the enemy by one thousand to five thousand. These achievements are unprecedented and are the first of the firearms warden, and this honor will always be engraved in the bones of the firearms warden.


    "The firearm prison is invincible in the world!"


    "The firearm prison is invincible in the world!"


    All the officers and men of the firearm prison proudly shouted, and the voice spread all over Yumen pass. It was said that the officers and men of Yumen pass who returned from the firearm prison had to admit that such a firearm prison was difficult to find an opponent in the world.


    Merton looked at the high morale of the firearm supervisor and couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction. He shouted loudly, "now this sacrifice order, the firearm supervisor returns in triumph."


    "Yes!" a group of firearm supervisors responded in a loud voice.


    During the western expedition to Gaochang, the only function of the firearm supervisor was to attack and break Gaochang city. Although he made great achievements, for the firearm supervisors, he did not use a knife or a gun. He said that he made his first contribution and returned home in triumph. He always felt guilty. This time, the firearm supervisor destroyed 5000 Tibetan cavalry. With such military achievements, the firearm supervisor''s triumph is well deserved.


    Soon, the officers and men of the whole army of the firearm prison packed up and set out, and the post stations along the way cooperated fully. The firearm prison passed through cities and went straight to Chang''an city. The people respected it everywhere. One hit the city and broke it for 1000 and 5000. All people were amazed by these remarkable achievements. The firearm prison finally became a blockbuster in the western expedition.


    However, what people don''t know is that Xue Rengui is now the leader of the firearms supervision team, and Morton has used the energy of Mohist village to travel thousands of miles a day to Chang''an city.


    According to the news from Chang''an City, Princess Changle is about to give birth.

 Chapter 1132

    Mo Fu.


    "Princess, have a taste! This is the tribute raisins created by mohou in Gaochang. Your majesty sent some for the princess to taste!" Liu e had a plate of grapes in front of her.


    Since Merton made raisins in Gaochang, in addition to a batch sent by the military express as a tribute to Li Shimin, many Hu merchants brought a batch by the way. Its unique delicacy immediately conquered the people of Chang''an and set off a burst of popularity in Chang''an city.


    Princess Changle shook her head. Even in the face of delicious raisins, she had no appetite. Now Princess Changle has a big stomach and is very close to the due date calculated by President Zhang. Now Merton still hasn''t come back. Seeing the raisins created by Merton, she not only saw things and thought of people.


    Liu e couldn''t help sighing and took away the raisins, which was the little princess''s favorite snack.


    As soon as Liu e went out, she saw Fu Bo coming and couldn''t help revealing her eyes. However, Fu Bo slowly shook his head. Liu e couldn''t help showing a disappointed expression and looked at Princess Changle with worry.


    "Go back, madam! The Marquis has no news yet!"


    Fubo quietly came in and reported to Princess Changle that since she learned that Merton had broken 5000 and led 400 firearm officers to pursue the Tubo remnant army, Princess Changle sent the children of the Mohists to Yumen pass to deliver the latest news every day. Unfortunately, up to now, The latest news they got was that Merton chased the Tibetan remnant army into the 800 mile sea. I''m afraid the water in the firearms prison had been exhausted, but there was no news from the firearms prison, which made people worried.


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "don''t worry. My father has ordered general Su to go to Qiemo to meet him. Once my husband is out of the 800 mile sea, he will certainly send a message at the first time. If you pass it on to the children of the Mohist family, you will say that the Mohist family has never been disappointed, and won''t be disappointed this time."


    Merton has survived many crises, not to mention that this time it is Merton who led the firearms officers and soldiers to take the initiative to pursue. The 800 mile vast sea is not without water. Princess Changle believes that Merton will be able to create another miracle and return safely.


    "Yes!" fuber nodded solemnly, stopped his waist and left proudly.


    After Fubo left, Princess Changle took off her disguise and suddenly felt weak. The place where Merton went deep was not an ordinary place, and the forbidden area of life was 800 miles and vast sea, and there was no news for such a long time, how could she not worry Princess Changle? Although Merton had a lot of wisdom at ordinary times, it was under the condition of strength and borrowing, Although Merton had great wisdom, he could do nothing in front of nature.


    Suddenly, Princess Changle felt her stomach move. She couldn''t help touching her stomach with a face of maternal love and said, "baby, don''t worry. Your father is an indomitable hero. He must return safely."


    Princess Changle immediately recovered her strength. Now Merton''s life and death are unknown. She should be stronger, not only for the Mohist school, but also for her children.


    When Martha came back from school, she stretched out her head to see her mother and sneaked into the room.


    "Stop, why do you look disheveled? Did you fight with other children again?" Princess Changle shouted coldly after seeing through Martha''s trick.


    Martha was unconvinced and said stubbornly, "who told them that their father can''t come back!"


    Princess Changle was so shocked that she hugged Mosha in her arms that she could no longer help crying. There was a princess Changle in the Mexican house who was still asking the bottom. Rumors had been everywhere in Chang''an City for a long time. Many people thought that the Mozi must not go out of the 800 mile sea and die together with the remnant army of Tubo,


    When moshaton was at a loss, he looked flustered and said, "mother, is it true that father can''t come back!"


    The princess of Changle immediately raised her eyebrows and said proudly, "who is your father? He is the son of the great Mohist family. He has not been to the 800 Li Han sea. Your father must have pursued the enemy and gone far, otherwise he would have returned."


    When Martha heard her mother''s promise, her small face nodded solemnly and said, "I''ll tell you. My father promised me that he will come back. Next time someone dares to talk nonsense, I won''t beat him."


    This time, Princess Changle did not discipline Martha, but gently hugged Martha in her arms and said, "yes, whoever talks nonsense will beat him."


    Suddenly, Princess Changle felt a pain in her abdomen and couldn''t help crying out.


    "Come on! Go to the hospital!" Princess Changle shouted quickly. With the experience of giving birth to Martha, Princess Changle immediately understood that her baby was going to be born.


    For a moment, the whole ink house was busy, but orderly. Obviously, the people in the ink house didn''t know how much preparation they had made for the moment.


    Soon, the carriage hurried all the way. Princess Changle was safely sent to the maternal and child hospital. At the same time, she sent someone into the palace to inform empress changsun.


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were looking sad in the legislative palace,


    Empress Chang sun frowned and said, "haven''t you heard from Merton and the firearm supervisor yet?"


    "Merton is so arrogant that the firearm supervisor managed to avert danger, but Merton keeps chasing the remnant army of Tubo, and even doesn''t hesitate to go deep into the vast sea." Li Shimin''s teeth itched with hatred and didn''t fight at all.


    In his opinion, there are only thousands of Tubo remnant army, which is more important than the safety of the fire weapon supervisor and Merton. The so-called gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and Merton, regardless of the risk, chased into the 800 mile vast sea.


    It is universally acknowledged that the poor invaders should not be pursued, and the Tibetan remnant army who fled in a panic was the poor invaders who had no way out. Finally, they even introduced mojiazi and the firearms prison into the 800 mile vast sea. Its intention has been well known, that is, to die with mojiazi.


    Now the officers and men of the western expedition to Gaochang have triumphed one after another, while the firearm supervisor and mojiazi, who were the first to do the feat, are missing, which cast a shadow over the victory out of thin air.


    "It''s too late to say anything now! Only hope Merton can create another miracle!" the eldest Sun Queen comforted.


    In fact, both Li Shimin and empress Chang sun didn''t say anything clearly. Merton has gone deep into the vast sea for too long. According to ordinary people''s estimation, the probability of returning a firearm supervisor is too low, that is, the Mohist school has repeatedly created miracles, which gives people a glimmer of hope.


    A palace maid came in a hurry and reported: "inform the emperor that Princess Changle is about to give birth."


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun were shocked. They immediately got up and went to the women''s and children''s hospital. It is reasonable to say that Princess Changle is a second child and there is no risk, but Merton has not returned. Princess Changle has a child alone. As parents, how can they rest assured and put down all things immediately and come in a hurry.


    "How''s Changle?"


    When Li Shimin and empress Chang sun rushed to the maternal and child hospital, they didn''t see the figure of Princess Changle and asked again and again.


    "Back to your majesty and queen, Princess Changle''s situation is stable and has entered the delivery room." Zhang saw Li Shimin and empress changsun coming and bowed quickly.


    "See your majesty and empress!" Fubo led the people of Mo mansion to salute one after another.


    "Grandpa, grandma!" Murtha threw herself into the arms of the eldest grandson and sobbed.


    "Don''t cry, there''s the emperor''s grandmother?" the eldest grandson queen took Mosha in her arms and comforted her.


    Martha wiped her tears and whispered, "I miss my father."


    Suddenly everyone''s heart sank and they didn''t want to advance the topic. Only empress Chang sun whispered comfort with Martha.


    However, what everyone did not know was that outside Chang''an City, a Mohist carriage was speeding towards Chang''an city. There were four horses waiting for every 50 miles of the carriage. The horse changing and coachman did not change people. At the same time, they traveled day and night, far faster than the 800 miles of the imperial court.


    "Young master, Chang''an city is here!" the coachman said with a trace of joy as the carriage stopped slowly.


    The window of the carriage opened slowly, revealing a face. It was the Mexican family in Chang''an city. Merton took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Chang''an, I''m back!"

 Chapter 1133

    Outside the delivery room, everyone was waiting anxiously. It had been a long time. However, Princess Changle still didn''t come out. It was faintly heard that Princess Changle cried out for pain.


    Just when they were impatient, Zhang came out of the delivery room with a tired face and was immediately surrounded by the people.


    "Dean Zhang, how can Changle go in for such a long time." Li Shimin hurriedly turned around, suddenly saw Zhang''s coming out, and hurried forward to ask.


    As we all know, the longer it takes to have children, the greater the risk. Princess Changle has been in the delivery room for too long. How can she not worry Li Shimin.


    Zhang shook his head helplessly and said, "the princess''s body is a little weak. It takes a long time."


    "Weak, how can you be weak? Isn''t Changle pregnant with a second child after three years of rest?" empress changsun frowned and asked Zhang.


    Zhang shook his head reluctantly and said, "I checked the physical condition of Princess Changle before. There is nothing abnormal. I can have children. I think it must be the disappearance of marquis mo. during this period of time, the princess''s heart is worried, and her body can''t bear it."


    When they heard the speech, they couldn''t help sighing. After Merton disappeared, Princess Changle seemed strong, but her body and mind must be affected. In addition, Princess Changle was originally weak, which led to today''s thing.


    "Please, Dean Zhang, be sure to keep Changle and her children." empress Chang Sun said solemnly.


    Zhang quickly nodded and said, "don''t worry, empress. I will go all out."


    When Zhang entered the delivery room again, Li Shimin couldn''t help hating: "it''s all the fault of Merton''s bravado, otherwise Changle can''t suffer this great crime."


    There was only two days between the ambush of the firearm supervisor and the victory of the firearm supervisor. Moreover, under the deliberate concealment of Li Shimin, Princess Changle just heard the news of Merton''s distress. She was surprised and happy. Although her mood fluctuated greatly, her health was not seriously affected.


    What really worried Changle was the news that Merton had chased into the 800 mile sea, and with the passage of time, there was no news of Merton, which made Princess Changle worried all the time and her body was getting thinner and thinner.


    With the passage of time, Princess Changle entered the delivery room for longer and longer, and everyone''s mood became more and more irritable.


    With a squeak, the delivery room door opened again, and Zhang came out with a worried face.


    "What''s the matter with Changle?" empress changsun hurried forward and said anxiously.


    Zhang''s face was sad and said, "the situation of Princess Changle is very bad. I think it''s better to protect the adult first! Otherwise, Princess Changle will be in danger."


    "What? Sir Xian Bao, the child?" Li Shimin was suddenly surprised and suddenly turned around.


    Zhang suddenly knelt down with fear on her face: "Your Majesty, this was the beginning of the women''s and children''s Hospital, which was formulated by the Royal Highness Princess personally. When the woman was in labor, there was an accident, giving priority to adults.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but hesitate for a moment. Naturally, he didn''t want to lose Princess Changle, but now Merton''s whereabouts are unknown. If there are three long and two short comings, if Princess Changle is pregnant with a boy, it is the only blood of the Mohist family, which can condense the spirit of the Mohist family for a hundred years. The importance of the Mohist school is obvious to all in the Tang Dynasty, let alone Merton disappeared during the western expedition, and he has made great military achievements, If they protect adults and let the Mohists lose their blood continuity, I''m afraid they will be criticized according to the customs of the Tang Dynasty.


    Empress Chang sun also thought of this truth. Her face changed and her eyes involuntarily looked at Fubo and others.


    Fubo came forward without hesitation and said, "please also ask President Zhang to spare no effort to protect his wife. This rule itself is formulated by the young master for his wife, which is also the young master''s will."


    Li Shimin and empress Chang sun could not help sighing. Merton founded the maternal and child hospital itself for the sake of Princess Changle''s parturition. I''m afraid this rule was formulated because she was worried about Changle''s poor health, but she didn''t think that it was used when Martha was born, and the second child was used.


    Zhang Shi nodded. She knew it well, because Merton had secretly told her to give priority to preserving her even if Princess Changle disagreed.


    "According to mohou''s proposal, the priority of preserving adults needs the signature of their husband. Now mohou hasn''t returned from the western expedition, I don''t know......" is Zhang''s name.


    With a slight sigh, Li Shimin stepped forward and prepared to pick up his pen. There was only Fubo in the ink house, who was not qualified to sign, and he was the most suitable father.


    "I''ll sign!"


    Suddenly, a firm voice sounded behind them. They were suddenly surprised. Suddenly looking back, they saw a familiar figure behind them. It was a tanned man, vaguely similar to Merton.


    "Merton!"


    Li Shimin suddenly turned around and couldn''t believe looking at the black boy in front of him. He looked carefully to confirm that it was Merton, but what made him wonder was how Merton suddenly appeared in Chang''an city.


    He had already ordered the post station. Once Merton appeared, he immediately sent the news back to Chang''an city with 800 Li. Merton returned to Chang''an City, but he didn''t get the news. There was only one possibility that Merton''s speed was faster than that of the imperial court, so he could arrive before 800 Li.


    "The young master is back!" Fubo said with great joy. In order to get Merton back at the first time, he used the strength of the Mojia village in advance and arranged enough people to wait all the way. Once Merton returned, he could return to Chang''an city at the first time. Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain, and Merton finally caught up with him at the most critical moment.


    "Just come back!" empress Chang Sun said with tears in her eyes. When Merton came back, Changle was no longer sad.


    Merton picked up the contract, brushed his name, solemnly saluted Li Shimin and empress Chang sun and said, "Your Majesty, i..."


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "later, let Changle be at ease first."


    Merton took a deep breath, opened the door of the delivery room and said in a high voice, "Changle, I''m back!"


    "Wenpo, you must protect your children. If this is a boy, it is the only male of Mohism. In case Merton doesn''t come back, I will leave incense for Mohism." Princess Changle begged. As a rule maker, she naturally knows her situation. The choice of women''s and children''s hospital can''t help pleading now.


    "But your highness is not optimistic," said Mrs. Wen, frowning.


    "No, don''t worry about me. I must protect the child. I must have this child." Princess Changle continued to beg.


    Wen Po sighed in her heart. She didn''t know a mother''s mood. Naturally, she was willing to pay her life for her children, but the rules of the maternal and child hospital were there, which made her very embarrassed.


    "Changle, I''m back!"


    While Princess Changle was pleading, suddenly a familiar voice came from Merton''s ear.


    "My husband is back!"


    In an instant, Changle was shocked when she heard the haunted voice. If Li Shimin sent someone to say that Merton had news, she might be skeptical. However, she was most familiar with Merton''s voice, how could she not distinguish it and burst into tears.


    "Yes, I''m back!" Merton affirmed again.


    "Mo Hou, you can''t go any further. There is a sterile environment ahead. You''d better go out first if you''ve just returned." Zhang chased in and hurriedly advised.


    Merton shook his head firmly and said, "then I''ll stand still and accompany Changle to produce."


    Across the curtain, hearing Merton''s voice, Princess Changle was uneasy. When Merton returned, the family would be complete. How could she miss the little life in her belly.


    "Yes, the princess is going to have a baby!" wenpo suddenly said in surprise. After Princess Changle learned that Merton had returned safely, her body seemed to rush into strength again, and the delivery process was smooth again.


    Soon, a loud cry sounded in the delivery room. Zhang said happily, "Congratulations, marquis Mo, mother and son are safe."


    "Mother and son are safe!" Merton looked at him with a heavy sigh of relief. Changle is fine. He has a son again. This must be the best reward from God.


    Outside the delivery room, Li Shimin and empress changsun were anxiously waiting. Suddenly, they heard a loud cry from the delivery room. They couldn''t help but look happy. It must be princess Changle''s birth.


    "Tell the emperor that the princess and her son are safe." Zhang said happily. The mission of the women''s and children''s hospital is to deliver the baby for Princess Changle. Now, I''m lucky to live up to my life.


    "Mother and son are safe!" the eldest grandson queen heard the news that Princess Changle was safe. Princess Changle was also born in October. No mother was willing to lose her child.

 Chapter 1134

    In the ward,


    Princess Changle woke up and looked at her son''s white and tender face on the left and Merton''s dark face next to her. She couldn''t help feeling happy.


    Merton was already exhausted after a long journey. After Princess Changle''s safe production, she relaxed and couldn''t help falling asleep. However, Princess Changle woke up and immediately alerted Merton in his deep sleep.


    "Are you awake?" Merton said with a surprised look on his face and hurriedly sent someone to Zhang''s house.


    Zhang came in a hurry. After carefully checking Princess Changle and her children, he relaxed his breath: "Princess Changle''s body is very stable, and the little marquis is is also very healthy. Don''t worry about Mo Hou."


    "Thank you, Dean Zhang!" Merton said sincerely.


    Fortunately, he prepared the maternal and child hospital in advance, otherwise Princess Changle would lose her strength even if she survived the disaster.


    "Mo Hou is polite. It all depends on Mo Hou''s trust. I''m lucky to live up to my life!" Zhang sighed.


    Since joining the maternal and child hospital for three years, Zhang''s hand has rescued too many pregnant women with dystocia. If there is no maternal and child hospital, these pregnant women with dystocia may die, or even one body and two lives.


    Nowadays, the maternal and child hospital is the top in terms of fertility success rate and infant survival rate. It has already become the first choice for pregnant women in Chang''an.


    Zhang had planned to open the branch of the women''s and children''s hospital to Luoyang City. After Luoyang was completed, Zhang was ready to follow the example of Mo hospital and apply for the support of the imperial court to open the women''s and children''s hospital all over the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty.


    "You have a rest here first. You still need to go to the palace to reply to your majesty for your husband." Merton said softly to Princess Changle. He hurried back from the, and met Princess Changle with dystocia. He didn''t have time to say a few words to Li Shimin. Now Princess Changle has turned the corner. It''s time to report to the palace. I''m afraid Li Shimin can''t wait.


    "Husband!" Princess Changle held Merton''s hand tightly, as if she let go. It was like a dream, and Merton would disappear.


    Merton patted Changle''s hand and said, "don''t worry, my husband will go back. I won''t go this time."


    "Yes!"


    Princess Changle nodded heavily. Then she released her hand and watched Merton walk out of the ward. Her heart was calm.


    Merton walked out of the ward and saw pound waiting outside. Seeing Merton coming out, he hurried forward and said, "please, Merton!"


    Merton went out of the maternal and child hospital, immediately boarded the carriage already prepared and went straight to the palace.


    On the carriage, pound looked at Merton''s dark face and sighed, "it''s a lucky luck that Marquis Merton can return safely, otherwise the long Princess doesn''t know how sad she is."


    It''s not just that Princess Changle is sad, because Merton didn''t return, which led to Princess Changle''s almost dystocia. If Princess Changle had another accident, Li Shimin and empress changsun would be even more sad.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "the boy is bent on avenging the firearms prison. I didn''t expect it to take so long."


    "Just come back!" pound said happily, "but mohou should be careful. Your majesty is very angry that you chase the remnant army of Tubo without authorization."


    Merton raised his eyebrows and said, "angry! Since the boy is sure to pursue, he is sure to retreat."


    Pound sneered, "I hope you dare say so when you see your majesty."


    Merton couldn''t help feeling guilty. It seems that he made a lot of noise this time.


    The carriage hurried and soon reached the palace.


    In the Imperial City, the officials of the three provinces and six departments are busy. Occasionally, an official of the three provinces and six departments comes out in a hurry.


    Suddenly, a court official hurried by with his official business. Suddenly, a dark faced young man came up to him. He was stunned and said, "why is this black boy so similar to the Mohist school?"


    However, he just made a face-to-face call in a hurry. In addition, in his impression, mojiazi could not be called a little white face, but he was definitely not black. Moreover, it is said that mojiazi has chased into the 800 mile vast sea, and there is no news at all. How could he suddenly appear in the imperial city.


    "No!"


    The official suddenly said that if it was an ordinary person, how could he appear in the palace? Moreover, the black faced young man was accompanied by the eunuch Pang Gonggong around his majesty. Combined with Merton, he went deep into the 800 mile vast sea. In this way, the black face had a reasonable explanation.


    "Is it the return of Mohist school!" the official was shocked. At present, the man suppressed the storm in his heart. The return of Mohist school is great news.


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin inadvertently corrected the memorial. From time to time, he flashed the scene of Princess Changle''s dystocia and the dark face of Merton. He was angry and distressed,


    "Tell your majesty, marquis Mo is here!" suddenly, Pound''s voice came from outside the hall.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath, calmed himself down and said in a deep voice, "let him in!"


    Pound opened the door and invited Merton in.


    "See your majesty!" Merton stepped into the Tai Chi hall and saluted.


    "You boy still know to come back!" pound heard Li Shimin''s roar before he closed the door. He couldn''t help smiling. Based on his understanding of Li Shimin, since his majesty is angry, it''s usually not a problem.


    "Wei Chen... Know your mistake!" Merton wanted to explain, but he bowed his head wisely and admitted his mistake at last.


    Looking at Merton''s dark face and even many sunburns on his back neck, Li Shimin''s anger subsided slightly. He knew that Merton must have suffered a lot in the desert.


    "Tell me! Tell me all about the chase. If you dare to show any more moths, don''t blame me for being unkind." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    Merton then smiled bitterly and said, "Wei Chen led 400 firearms supervisors and soldiers to lead the Tibetan remnant army. When the enemy advances, I retreat, I advance, the enemy is stationed, I harass, the enemy is tired, I fight, and constantly consume the Tibetan remnant army, but I don''t confront it head-on. Wei Chen is sure to kill all the Tibetan remnant army before it arrives."


    "I retreat when the enemy advances, I advance when the enemy retreats, I disturb when the enemy is stationed, and I fight when the enemy is tired."


    Li Shimin''s eyes brightened when he heard Merton''s sixteen character war policy. With his ultra-high military quality, he naturally and easily understood the power of the sixteen character war policy. At present, I can''t help sighing that the Mohist attack really deserves its reputation.


    "However, the Tubo remnant general, on the Qin mausoleum, saw through the intention of the Wei minister. He no longer went to Qiemo, but plunged into the 800 mile sea to the west, with the intention to die together with the firearms supervisor and complete the task of killing the Wei minister." Merton continued.


    Li Shimin immediately became angry and said again, "since you know it''s the same death, you''re still chasing into the 800 mile sea."


    "Wei Chen is sure to retreat," Morton said proudly.


    Li Shimin said coldly, "are you sure to retreat? It''s an 800 mile sea. People and animals are extinct. It''s a forbidden area of life. Are you sure! You''ve been trapped in the desert for so long?"


    Merton was a little guilty and said, "at that time, Weichen and firearm supervisor were one person and two horses, and they carried more water than the Tibetan remnant army. Not to mention that Weichen mastered the secret technique of taking water from the desert. No matter how bad it is, he can stab the horse and drink blood. As long as he pursued with his tail, it is enough to bury nearly a thousand Tibetan remnant army in the yellow sand without a single soldier."


    "Like a giant lizard chasing poisoned prey?" Li Shimin sneered. Although the firearms warden stayed at Yumen pass, Qu Zhisheng, king of Gaochang, had already been sent to Chang''an city. Naturally, he knew the dialogue between Merton and Qu Zhisheng.


    Merton nodded: "yes, but who would have thought that Qu Zhisheng was lucky and took the lead in finding a small oasis, which made the chase too long."


    Merton then explained the battle of the 800 mile vast sea in detail. When Li Shimin heard that Merton desert fetched water out of thin air, pursued by the desert, the Tubo remnant army broke its tail to survive, and then came to Tulun River, and the Khotan tribe was neutral, he was thrilling and excited.


    "Lucky for you, you''ll be buried in the desert if you take the wrong step." Li Shimin praised in his heart, but he didn''t spare humanity.


    Merton couldn''t help smiling awkwardly.


    Suddenly, a rapid sound of hoofs came, and pound quickly preached, "tell your majesty, it''s urgent to close the Jade Gate 800 miles."


    "Hurry up!"


    Li Shimin was suddenly surprised and hurriedly summoned him.


    Soon, a dusty courier entered the Tai Chi hall and bowed down in the tunnel: "I inform your majesty that the firearms supervisor is victorious, marquis Mo......"


    The Posthouse soldier suddenly glanced around and saw the dark Mohist on one side. He was stunned and swallowed: "mohou... Return safely."


    According to Li Shimin''s instructions, once there is news of Merton''s return, he will hurry back 800 Li to send the message. However, when he set out, mohou, who was still at Yumen pass, appeared in the Tai Chi hall faster than him.

 Chapter 1135

    Two quarters of an hour ago!


    "As the saying goes, a fool''s thoughtfulness will lead to a gain, and a wise man''s thoughtfulness will lead to a loss. The Mohist horse is a horse that stumbles!" a Confucian student in Chang''an shook his head and sighed.


    "It''s a pity, it''s a pity! Mozi is in his prime. He is full of talent. He is full of energy. He smashed the city and shocked the western regions. Now he is trapped in the vast sea of 800 miles, and his life and death are uncertain." a Chang''an people regretted.


    "What''s more regrettable is that Mohism has been silent for thousands of years and has just been revived, but now it wants to collapse the middle road. It''s really heaven''s envy of talents!" the people of 100 families said bitterly.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In Chang''an City, everyone regretted that even if it was not pleasing to the eyes of Mohist, no one denied that Mohist''s talent was an extremely wise man. He had thousands of ink skills in his heart. When waving, the Gaochang city wall disappeared, and his own strength provoked a hundred schools of thought to contend.


    However, in the face of the restricted area of life, 800 miles and the vast sea, and the time has passed for so long, everyone thinks that the hope of Mohist''s survival is extremely slim, and many people begin to gloat. After all, Mohist''s family is too dazzling. One person can''t hold up the young talents in Chang''an city. Now Mohist''s family is in danger, naturally some people are secretly happy.


    "Fart! Since my young master dares to catch up with the 800 mile sea, he is sure to survive. It doesn''t bother you." the Mohist children argued one after another. Now Merton is returning secretly. The news is only known in the Mohist hospital. The Mohist children outside don''t know that Merton has returned, but they still believe that Merton can return safely. In their hearts, the young master is omnipotent. This little difficulty is not worth mentioning at all.


    "Are you sure to survive? That''s the 800 mile sea. Besides, the purpose of the Tubo remnant army is very clear. That is to drag the mojiazi into the 800 mile sea and die with him. How can the Tubo remnant army easily let him leave? You know, even if the Tubo remnant army is defeated, there are thousands of people, which is not a small combat power."


    "In my opinion, even if mojiazi is lucky enough to get out of the 800 mile vast sea, the 400 firearms officers and soldiers will probably be buried in the yellow sand."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone guessed that they were not optimistic about the outcome of mojiazi. I''m afraid the final outcome was that 400 firearm officers and soldiers sacrificed themselves and sent mojiazi out of the 800 mile sea. In that way, the reputation of mojiazi was ruined.


    Although the Mohist children believe in their own young masters, the current forms are unfavorable to Merton. Although they have the intention to refute, they are unable to argue.


    Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horses'' hoofs, and everyone frowned. They were impatient to dare to gallop in Chang''an city. Of course, there was only one exception, that is, 800 Li hurry.


    "800 Li urgent?"


    The people moved in their hearts and suddenly looked up. Sure enough, they saw a post servant coming quickly.


    "From Xicheng gate!" the Mohist children felt a move in their hearts. The post servant entered from Xicheng gate. The first two 800 Li expeditions also came from Xicheng gate. Is it the news from Yumen pass.


    I saw the eight hundred mile expedited post soldiers hurrying on the way, shouting: "the firearm supervisor returns triumphantly, and mohou returns."


    "Return of Mohist school!"


    Suddenly, everyone was in an uproar, like a thousand waves caused by a stone, causing bursts of roaring in Chang''an city.


    "How could this be possible? It''s a vast sea of eight hundred miles. How can the Mexican family survive without water for so many days?"


    "It won''t be true to sacrifice 400 firearm officers and soldiers, just for the sake of Mohist Zi''s life!"


    "You''re stupid. You didn''t hear the triumph of the firearm supervisor."


    "The firearms warden returned triumphantly. Doesn''t that mean that thousands of Tubo remnant troops have been buried in the yellow sand?"


    "That''s nature!"


    Everyone couldn''t help but take a breath. The MOH family once again created a miracle. It was incredible that they survived in the 800 mile sea for so many days and returned safely.


    The children of Mohism suddenly looked at the people of Chang''an with pride and contempt. The young master has created few miracles. This time, there is nothing strange.


    The Mohist child despised in his heart, but his body was very honest. He immediately closed the store door and rushed to the Mohist house and the Mohist village to deliver a message. When the young master returned, the top bone of the Mohist family came back. The big stone that had been pressing on the head of the Mohist village for so many days finally fell. The news naturally came back at the first time.


    Chang''an people can''t help but wonder, it''s an 800 mile vast sea! How the Mohists spent so many days lost contact, how the drinking water of more than 400 people was solved, and how all survived and returned in triumph. These problems made the people of Chang''an scratching their ears.


    It was not only the people of Chang''an, but also the news of the return of Mohism was like a gunpowder bag thrown into the West City, and the whole west city was bombed by Hu merchants.


    In fact, the news that mojiazi was buried in the desert first came from Hu merchants in Xishi. After all, as a frequent visitor of the Silk Road, Hu merchants have the most authoritative understanding of the desert. Among the painful lessons of countless Hu merchants, once they are trapped in the desert for more than half a month, the hope of survival is almost zero, while the Mojia has been in the desert for far more than half a month, Not to mention that Mojia Zi is in the most water consuming summer desert and has to fight the remnant army of Tubo.


    "Except that the mojiazi found the oasis or had the secret skill of taking water in the desert, it is absolutely impossible to survive in the desert for so long," said the Hushang of Xishi.


    "It can''t be an oasis. If mojiazi finds an oasis, the Tubo remnant army can also be an oasis. The 400 firearms officers and soldiers can''t return completely. I''m afraid that mojiazi can''t explain until he finds a way to get water." a wise Hu Shang leader analyzed it. However, the more he analyzed it, the more shocked he was.


    "The way to get water from the desert?" many Hu merchants thought. If mojiazi really found the way to get water from the desert, wouldn''t it be the greatest gospel of the silk road. How many people fall into the desert because of lack of water every year. Once there is the way to get water from the desert, it is Hu merchants'' way to save lives.


    Soon, more and more information about Merton in the desert came and immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "You know, this time, the whole army of Tubo was destroyed, none of them survived, and all of them were buried in the desert. The Mexican family lost 5000, and won a great victory. This war can certainly be remembered in history." a scholar said excitedly, which scholar did not join the army, and the Mexican family is also not a famous general with high martial arts, but can create such brilliant results, It immediately made all the scholars proud.


    However, people are lack of interest. Mojiazi and the firearm supervisor have triumphed. The 1000 Tibetan remnant soldiers are naturally buried in the desert. They are concerned about how mojiazi can survive in the desert for so long under the condition of water shortage.

 Chapter 1136

    The scholar proudly said: "Then you should listen carefully. According to the grapevine news, in the 800 mile vast sea, the remnant army of Tubo led by Qin Ling was the first to find the oasis and replenish the water source. It was more sinister than Mo Jiazi. He polluted the water source with horse dung in an attempt to deceive Mo Jiazi by using the Xiongnu''s method to deal with Huo Qubing. The situation that was originally beneficial to Mo Jiazi was immediately reversed, otherwise Mo Jiazi would have been killed and spit How can it take so long for the remnant Tibetan army to return in triumph? "


    "What about mojiazi and the firearm supervisor?"


    "The remnant army of Tubo is really hateful!"


    "Mojiazi also drank epidemic water?"


    The onlookers seemed to be on the scene and denounced the Tibetan remnant army one after another.


    The scholar Ning Zhong said: "of course, mojiazi won''t be fooled. He didn''t drink epidemic water. The whole army was seriously short of water. The remaining Tibetan army got supplies. He even intended to drive the firearm supervisor to the depths of the desert. He thirsted mojiazi alive with 800 miles of vast sea. The relationship between hunters and prey in the desert was reversed. The remaining Tibetan army became a giant lizard, and mojiazi became poisoned prey."


    The story about the giant lizard and prey of mojiazi had already spread after Qu Zhisheng came to Chang''an city. People easily understood the scene at that time.


    "Ah!"


    Although everyone knew that Merton had triumphed and must have found a way to get water, they couldn''t help crying when they heard that Merton was in a desperate situation.


    As soon as the scholar''s voice changed, he said, "just when the firearm supervisor was thirsty and the horse was sleepy, he was about to fall down. The Mohist son thought hard and finally thought of the secret technique of taking water from the desert."


    "Well drilling! Mojia village is the best at well drilling. The great drought in Guanzhong was solved by the secret skills of Mojia."


    "In my opinion, I must have found the ant cave. There is water under the ant cave. That''s how Duke Huan of Qi found the water."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Everyone guessed.


    The scholar shook his head and said, "no, the Mohists didn''t let the soldiers dig water in the desert. If it''s so easy to dig water in the desert, can the desert be called the forbidden zone of life? Not to mention the pursuit of soldiers after the firearm prison, it''s impossible to have time to dig water."


    While listening, Hu merchants in the western regions nodded one after another. It''s wishful thinking to dig out water in the desert.


    "How did the Mexican family get water?" they were surprised.


    "Maybe it''s urine. If you''re extremely thirsty, drinking urine can also save your life," interrupted a doctor.


    "Eh!" the people suddenly felt sick, and their image of Mohist Zi suddenly fell. However, they also understood that if it was an extreme case, I''m afraid they couldn''t care about these.


    When the scholar saw that the doctor was destroying the atmosphere, he couldn''t help staring at him, suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "The ink family is talented and proficient in ink skills. Naturally, they can''t use this desperate trick. The ink family waved its big hand and said to the soldiers, you just need to take out the long sword, put it up with a wooden stick, and put the helmet under the tip of the sword. When you wake up, there is water in the helmet. The soldiers do it with dubious belief. The next day, just at dawn, the soldiers woke up one after another and suddenly found that there was water in their helmets However, a helmet full of water, one after another raised his helmet to drink, and the water shortage crisis of the firearms prison was immediately lifted. "


    "Ah! Fetch water out of thin air? How is that possible? It''s a vast sea of eight hundred miles."


    "This is not ink learning!"


    Everyone was in an uproar. Mozi was not a fairy. How could he turn into water out of thin air? Although this story is magical, it is definitely not Mozi''s style. Suddenly, everyone looked at the scholar with suspicious eyes. This person shouldn''t have made it up!


    "Why can''t water appear out of thin air? You can imagine whether water will appear out of thin air at night and in the morning?" the scholar asked.


    The people moved in their hearts and suddenly thought of a possibility. They applauded the case and said, "it''s dew!"


    "Dew!"


    People suddenly realized that it was true that whenever night came, a lot of dew would condense on the trees and grass, while there were no trees and grass in the desert, and mojiazi used colder weapons instead of plants to collect dew. This method is naturally feasible in theory.


    "It''s amazing to get water out of thin air!"


    Suddenly, the people of Chang''an marveled one after another. In their opinion, with the method of collecting dew, the firearms supervisor can continuously obtain water in the desert, which can be full of helmet water, enough for people and horses to drink.


    Moreover, this method is more in line with their expectations of Mohists. As for the doctor''s method, they are disgusted.


    Many Hu merchants in the western regions couldn''t help crying when they heard the news. Why didn''t they think of this method? They can collect so much dew overnight. Wouldn''t they no longer have to worry about water resources on the Silk Road? They can transport more goods and make more profits without carrying heavy water sources.


    "Why didn''t the Mohists take it out when they passed through the Gobi Desert two thousand miles in the western expedition, since they had the method of taking water from the desert?" a man frowned.


    "You silly! It was winter when the western expedition was launched. Dew only existed in spring, summer and early autumn. If the weather was too cold, it would be frost. How to collect dew," the scholar scolded.


    "Yes!" the crowd could not help but suddenly realize that maybe it was just thought out by Mohist Zi!


    same night! Many people were so excited that they began to imitate Mozi''s method of collecting dew. As the night deepened, when they clearly saw the round beads of water condensed on the iron ware, they immediately fell in admiration of Mozi.


    "Mojia Zi! Worthy of being Mojia Zi!" all the people were convinced.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Where''s the water? Where''s my water?"


    The next day, just after dawn, Li Zhi''s angry roar came from the palace.


    "What''s the matter? What kind of water do you want? Are the young slaves thirsty? Come and serve tea?" the empress changsun woke up and asked.


    Now Li Zhi has grown up. Although he is thin and weak, he has become a teenager. When he sees the empress Chang sun coming out, he is still like a child. He coquettishly says, "it''s not tea, it''s dew!"


    "Dew? What do young slaves want dew for? Doctors have said that dew is rootless water, which is of no help to cure diseases!" the eldest Sun Queen wondered.


    Li Zhi said dejectedly, "the child doesn''t want dew to cure his illness, but wants to emulate his brother-in-law to get water in the desert. Unfortunately, after one night, he just collects a little water. Where can I drink enough!"


    Empress Chang sun knew what had happened. She was angry and joked: "You really believe those folk rumors! Merton collects dew in the desert. He can only collect some dew by wiping the dew on the weapons with cotton cloth all night. Moreover, it can''t blow. Once the wind blows, the dew will evaporate quickly. It''s good that you can leave it all night."


    Naturally, empress Chang sun had already got Merton''s water from Li Shimin''s mouth and explained to Li Zhi.


    "I see?" Li Zhi suddenly realized, nodded and said, "my brother-in-law is so clever."


    Empress Chang sun couldn''t help sighing. Fortunately, it was Merton. If it were someone else, I''m afraid I couldn''t get out of the 800 mile sea at all. No, I''m afraid I couldn''t even survive the first wave of 5000 Tibetan cavalry ambush.


    "Empress mother, I haven''t seen my little nephew yet. Otherwise, let''s go to sister Changle to see my little nephew today!" Li Zhi begged.


    Yesterday, the news of Changle''s labor was too hasty. Li Shimin and empress Chang sun hurried over without Li Zhi. Li Zhi naturally felt itchy.


    Empress changsun felt a movement in her heart. Changle had just given birth. As a mother, she naturally worried about her heart. At present, she couldn''t help nodding and agreeing, and set off for the Mo mansion one after another.

 Chapter 1137

    It''s not just the empress Chang sun, who loves Tubo thousands of miles away. There is a person who also cares about his children. He is Tubo''s great Minister Lu Dongzan.


    "Back to my father, there''s no news about my second brother." Zan Xi, the eldest son of ludongzan, said in a deep voice if he came to the sitting ludongzan. Ludongzan has obviously aged a lot since he learned that his second brother personally led five thousand cavalry soldiers on the Qinling mausoleum but lost to only one thousand firearms prison.


    "Is there any news from the Mohist school?" after a long time, Lu Dongzan sighed and asked.


    Zan Xiruo shook his head and said, "all Tubo spies in Tuyuhun have heard that mojiazi chased his second brother into the 800 mile sea and has not returned."


    Lu Dongzan felt better when he heard that mojiazi had not returned. He did not lose face on Qin mausoleum. Although he was defeated by mojiazi, he finally entered the 800 mile vast sea with the heart of death and introduced mojiazi into it.


    "Don''t worry, father. The 800 mile sea is vast. Maybe the second brother just got lost or hid in an oasis?" Lu Dongzan''s eldest son comforted.


    Ludongzan shook his head and said: "You and I are all aware of the horror of the 800 Li sea. Neither Mohist nor Lun Qinling can stay so long, and the second exit from Khotan chosen by your father for your second brother has not been used. I''m afraid your second brother is in danger, but your second brother also deserves his death. As long as you can drag the Mohist son to death in the 800 Li sea, all these sacrifices are worth it.


    It''s ridiculous to say that it''s cost-effective for ludongzan to exchange 5000 horses for the head of one Mohist, even if he sacrifices his son. This is the value of Mohist.


    Lu Dongzan always thought that he had high regard for mojiazi. He directly ambushed the firearm prison led by mojiazi with 5000 elite Tibetan cavalry, but he was defeated by mojiazi. According to the news from the Tang Dynasty, it was a disastrous defeat.


    He underestimated the Mohist family and the power of gunpowder in the field, and finally paid a painful price. Fortunately, on the Qin mausoleum, he finally saved his face by dying together. As long as the Mohist family can''t come back, what he has done is not only great, but also great.


    Just as ludongzan was ready to accept the reality, suddenly a Tubo messenger came in a hurry to report: "return to Daxiang, Qiemo came the news that the mojiazi appeared in Qiemo, and the four hundred firearm guards who pursued the childe appeared at the same time."


    Ludong zanton''s face turned white and his body couldn''t help shaking. Ludong Zan''s eldest son quickly held Ludong Zan. He could obviously feel his father''s weakness that year.


    "Father, I''m sorry!" Lu Dongzan''s eldest son gently advised him. Although he is Lu Dongzan''s eldest son and lacks status and power, he knows that Lu Dongzan''s favorite is his second son on the Qin mausoleum.


    This time, when Tubo ambushed the firearm prison, his father dispatched 5000 people at once, and handed over such an important matter to Lun Qinling to pave the way for Lun Qinling. However, it backfired. Mo Danzi was so rebellious that he killed his second brother Lun Qinling.


    "Mojia Zi!" Lu Dongzan could not help gnashing his teeth. Since Mojia Zi appeared in Qiemo and accompanied by 400 firearm officers and soldiers, it can be imagined that the Qinling mausoleum must be buried in the yellow sand, and the pain of killing his son would be unbearable. This time, Lu Dongzan''s heart was filled with anger.


    "Father should not be reckless. The Tang Dynasty is powerful. The Mo family has returned to the Tang Dynasty and needs to slowly figure it out." zansiruo advised.


    Ludong Zan''s red face slowly subsided. However, zansiro clearly felt the repressed anger in Ludong Zan''s heart.


    "Tell the prime minister, Songzan Ganbu, please!" suddenly a messenger came in a hurry.


    Ludong zanton''s face turned white. He made it his own decision to let Lun Qinling lead five thousand cavalry to ambush Mo Jiazi. Before, it was unknown about the life and death of Qin Ling and Mo Jiazi. His merits and demerits have not been determined. However, now Mo Jiazi has appeared, while Tubo has lost five thousand cavalry in vain, which has offended the Tang Dynasty. This responsibility naturally falls on Ludong Zan.


    "Father!" zansiruo said nervously.


    Lu Dongzan shook his head and said, "it doesn''t matter. It''s wrong for my father, so I have to bear the consequences. There''s still some responsibility for my father."


    Ludongzan soon came to a palace where Tubo officials gathered. Seeing ludongzan coming, many people showed sympathy. Obviously, they also heard the news of the emergence of mojiazi.


    Lu Dongzan went to the first place of all officials. Seeing that there was no one above the throne, he frowned and asked, "where''s Zanpu?"


    A Tubo minister on one side replied, "the prime minister has no intention to know about the government recently. Now Tubo is about to have a new queen!"


    "The new queen?" Ludongzan frowned. You should know that Tubo Zanpu''s marriage is not a small matter. It often has the nature of marriage. Before, Songzanganbu''s Queen was Chizun Princess of nibra. If he married a new queen, would he offend nibra? Although Tubo''s strength is no longer afraid of nibra, Tubo has offended Datang, so it''s really inappropriate to offend nibra Luo.


    "Coming!" all the ministers shouted, and Lu Dongzan''s eyes flashed. He saw that Songzan Ganbu took a woman to the court, and the woman looked impressively Han. How could Lu Dongzan, who has been to the Tang Dynasty for many times, be wrong.


    "See Zanpu!" Tubo officials saluted one after another.


    Songzan Gambo is tall, only 23 years old and in his prime. It is well known that mojiazi is young and talented. However, in Tubo, Songzan Gambo''s experience is not inferior to that of mojiazi. Songzan Gambo succeeded to Zanpu at the age of 13. Since then, he has been like hanging up, fighting the rebellion, annexing Yangtong and SUBI, and unifying the Tubo plateau, Let Tubo become a powerful country in the world, and Songzan Ganbu made great contributions. Even ludongzan bowed down at Songzan Ganbu''s feet.


    Now Songzan Ganbu, the hero of Tubo, looks spoiled at the Han women around him and says softly: "Ask what love is in the world and teach people to live and die together. Ben Zanpu has been unable to understand the love story of Liang Zhu written by Mozi until he saw wen''er on the way of hunting. At that moment, I understood that I must marry this woman and spend my life with her in this life. I''m afraid this is love."


    The love story between Songzan Gambo and wen''er is very old-fashioned and common. Wen''er, who was originally the daughter of a merchant in the Tang Dynasty, came to Tubo to do business with his father, but was accidentally attacked by wild animals. Songzan Gambo was just rescued by a hunting Songzan Gambo hero. Songzan Gambo was handsome, brave and in a high position. He captured wen''er''s heart. Songzan Gambo also fell in love with wen''er at first sight and soon fell in love with her Yes, I agree.


    "I''m in a humble position. I''m afraid I don''t deserve Zanpu." wen''er said timidly when he saw a group of Tubo officials. She was the daughter of a businessman. It was like a dream that she could be favored by the king of a country one day.


    "It''s all right. Before long, your status will be noble." Songzan Ganbu said softly.


    "I''m afraid I''m not qualified for the position of Queen." wen''er said timidly.


    Songzan Ganbu shook his head, did not answer, but turned his head and looked at the ministers and said, "wen''er is a Han. Although he agrees with Ben Zanpu, he can''t go without the consent of Tian Khan. Ben Zanpu decided to go to the Tang Dynasty again and offer 5000 liang of gold and hundreds of treasures. He only asked Tian Khan to allow wen''er to marry Tubo as a princess."


    "Ah!" all the Tubo officials were in an uproar.


    "Envoy to Datang! Just for the daughter of an ordinary merchant." the ministers were puzzled. They wanted to know that Tubo and Datang had made a complete friendship. At the moment, envoy to Datang could only be humiliated, and the purpose was even more ridiculous. It was Songzanganbu who granted a princess status to the daughter of a merchant for love.


    "Zanpu, how can I get Zanpu''s favor?" wen''er was moved to tears.


    Songzan Ganbu said affectionately, "money is external. It''s nothing as long as you can be the queen of Ben Zanpu in a fair name?"


    The Tubo officials looked at the two people with deep love and righteousness, and they all frowned. However, due to the tiger power of Songzan Ganbu, no one spoke.


    "Lu Daxiang, you''ve been to the Tang Dynasty for several times. How about you get the princess status for wen''er?" Songzan Ganbu said firmly.


    "Ludong praises the envoy of the Tang Dynasty." for a moment, Tubo officials woke up from their deep affection and felt creepy. Ludong praises just sent his son to kill Mo''s son, which has offended the Tang Dynasty. At the moment, Songzan Ganbu asked Ludong praises the envoy of the Tang Dynasty. Isn''t this making Ludong praise jump into the mouth of the tiger? How can the Tang Dynasty let Ludong praise go.


    Lu Dong praised his body, then bowed respectfully and said, "I''ll take your orders!"


    Tubo officials turned their heads to look at ludongzan. No one thought that ludongzan took the command without hesitation. Didn''t he take the initiative to die?


    Until now, all the Tubo ministers suddenly realized Songzan Ganbu''s intention. The so-called purpose of marrying Wener as Queen and seeking Princess status from Tian Khan is to show weakness to the Tang Dynasty. This is the real Songzan Ganbu, a brilliant and broad-minded Ming Lord who dares to bear it. I''m afraid there is only one silly woman, Wener, who believes in the love of an emperor Love.


    Soon, the details of the envoy have been passed. The Tubo ministers respectfully saluted Songzan Ganbu and Ludong Zan for their sacrifice.


    "All step back! Lu Daxiang will stay. Ben Zanpu has something to tell him." songzangan Brown said.


    With a sigh, all the ministers withdrew one after another. Songzan Ganbu sent wen''er away again. Suddenly, there were only Songzan Ganbu and ludongzan left in the whole hall.


    "Lu Daxiang, you can blame me." Songzan Ganbu looked directly at Lu Dongzan and said slowly.


    Lu Dongzan shook his head and said, "Wei Chen dare not. This time, Wei Chen made a mistake first, which put Tubo in danger. In that case, let Wei Chen''s head calm Datang''s anger."


    Songzan Ganbu said reluctantly, "Datang is powerful, and Datang with gunpowder is invincible in the world. Tubo is adjacent to Datang. Although protected by the God of the plateau, it is also not an opponent of Datang. If you can''t get Datang''s forgiveness, Tubo will be in danger."


    "Zanpu''s decision is correct. Today''s Tubo is really unfit to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty. It''s difficult for Zanpu to die." Ludong Zanpu said painfully.


    Songzan Ganbu''s face lit up when he heard the speech. He was the Lord of the country. He married Princess Chizun and other characters. He could not see the daughter of a plain merchant, but he had to act with him, pretending to be affectionate and moving Tian Khan with the so-called love story.


    "You and I are all for Tubo. It''s all worth it. Remember that no matter what conditions Tian Khan has, he will promise as long as he can get the forgiveness of Datang." Songzan Ganbu took a deep breath.


    Ludongzan was silent for a moment. He knew the conditions and even his life, but he did not hesitate and said firmly, "Weichen, obey!"


    "Try to come back alive!" Songzan Ganbu said dryly.


    Lu Dongzan nodded, saluted respectfully, turned and left proudly.

 Chapter 1138

    "Young slave, we''re going back to the palace!"


    Empress Chang sun reluctantly put her grandson beside Princess Changle''s bed, looked at the gradually recovering Princess Changle and her pink grandson, and couldn''t help spoiling her face.


    "So fast, my brother-in-law hasn''t told me about the western expedition!"


    Li Zhi came here without interest. He was very curious about Merton''s western expedition. He was asking Merton East and West. He finally caught the opportunity and went back so soon.


    Empress Chang Sun said with a smile, "Merton has come back. There is plenty of time to ask for advice in the future."


    "Goodbye, brother-in-law! You must teach me some skills in a few days." Li Zhi waved to Merton reluctantly. Now Li Zhi has grown into a handsome young master, and it has long been no longer a problem of the Mohists


    Princess Changle was still lying in bed to cultivate herself. She couldn''t help smiling and said, "the child''s body is inconvenient. Let Merton send her mother!"


    "Queen, please!" Merton went forward.


    Under the leadership of Merton, empress Chang sun walked out of the women''s and children''s Hospital and immediately found that many eyes were staring at Merton.


    "Ah! It''s really the Mohist family!"


    "Which one?" someone wondered.


    "The blackest one!"


    When the princess of Changle was about to give birth, everyone knew that when he returned, he would come back for the first time. Of course, many eyes were staring out at the women''s and children''s hospital.


    Merton went deep into the vast ocean for a long time. He had already been tanned. Now he was pointed out in public and couldn''t help touching his nose in embarrassment.


    Seeing this, empress changsun smiled and said, "well, Changle is still in the month. You''d better go back and take care of it. Don''t send it again!"


    "Congratulations to the queen!"


    Merton stopped and watched empress Chang sun get into the carriage and wave to the onlookers. Then he turned back to the women''s and children''s hospital.


    "It''s really the Mohist family! The Mohist family is back!" the crowd immediately flew back to pass the news.


    Soon, the news that mojiazi appeared in the maternal and child hospital spread all over Chang''an city. The people of Chang''an were convinced that mojiazi really returned unharmed.


    As for the fact that the Mohist school was tanned, it was spread with great interest. Of course, no one laughed at it, but had a little more respect.


    The Mohist house and the Mohist village were even more jubilant. Once the dull atmosphere and worries about the future of Mohist school were changed, the return of Mohist son gave Mohist school a backbone again.


    Of course, there are people in the dark who sigh and are disappointed. This is the best chance to curb the Mohist school, but the Mohist son escaped. However, there is no sound or color on the surface, so they can only hide the careful thinking in their heart in a dark corner.


    Three days passed in a hurry, and soon it was the day when Princess Changle was discharged from the hospital. The family of four had just returned to the Mo mansion, and the dignitaries and ladies from the neighbors came to the door one after another.


    "Ah! The princess has given birth to a little marquis. Congratulations to Marquis Mo, there are successors in the Mohist family!" all the ladies said one after another. When they visited Changle and the children, they were relieved to see that Merton really came back.


    You should know that they are credited with encouraging Merton to come back as soon as possible in Changle''s ear, but they fell into the trap of Tubo. Now Merton''s safe return can be regarded as exposing this matter.


    Merton wisely left space for Changle and a group of dignitaries and ladies. Not only did Changle have guests, but even he was constantly visited.


    Su Lingnong, the big Si Nong, learned the secret skills of wine making and western textile from Merton and left with satisfaction.


    Half an hour after Li Jing came to the door, he regarded it as a treasure, put the paper recording the combat methods and skills of gunpowder in his arms, hurried back, and took the time to revise his military book.


    Li Tai took the map of the western regions and asked about the terrain of the 800 Li Han sea, so he immediately went back to write his own local chronicles.


    Qin Huaiyu and others visited their nephew and laughed at Merton. When he left with high toes, Merton''s face became darker.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    It was not until nightfall that Merton had time to meet the people of Mojia village who were waiting for a day.


    "The young master''s safe return is the blessing of Mohist ancestors!"


    Seeing Merton''s safe return, Li Yi burst into tears. These days, they seem to have full confidence in Merton and firmly believe that Merton will return safely. However, they are suffering at the bottom of their hearts. The Mohist school can have today, which depends on Merton''s strength. If Merton is really buried in the yellow sand, I''m afraid the current situation of the Mohist village can only be a flash in the pan, and the Mohist school can only continue to sink, I don''t know when it will revive.


    "Uncle Li Mo is going to be sad. Didn''t I come back?" Morton comforted.


    Li Yi begged: "young master, don''t risk yourself in the future. The Mohists really can''t afford to lose the young master."


    Other old people in Mojia village also admonished one after another. They looked as if Merton couldn''t pass this level if he didn''t agree. This time it was too dangerous. Almost all old people in Mojia village couldn''t sleep at night.


    "It''s nonsense. You have your life. Who dares to disobey. Besides, if the young master didn''t go out to life and death, how could the Mohist school today." Fu Bo scolded aside. It is not because Mohism and Merton have made great contributions to the imperial court that Mohism can get the support of Li Shimin. If Mohism doesn''t work, how can we get the support of the imperial court and how can we revive Mohism.


    Immediately, Mojia village was divided into two factions and began to quarrel.


    Merton was helpless for a while and said, "well, the revival of Mohism is like sailing against the current. If you don''t advance, you''ll fall back. I''ve provoked a hundred schools of thought to contend. It''s wishful thinking to stay out of it."


    Li Yi and others couldn''t help sighing. He didn''t know this, but Merton repeatedly took risks. The Mohists really couldn''t afford to lose Merton.


    Merton''s words changed: "but I will strengthen my own security in the future. I got a hint of inspiration for this western expedition and am ready to forge a peerless weapon. With this sharp weapon in my body, the world is invincible."


    Merton picked up a pen and paper and drew a pattern. It was a famous revolver in later generations. This time, the enemies in Tubo and Datang used Changle pregnancy to lure themselves and the firearms supervisor back alone, which made Merton realize that someone in Chang''an City wanted his life. Now, he had to open the plug-in to protect his life. The so-called open gun is easy to hide from hidden arrows, If he is protected by a revolver, his safety will be greatly guaranteed.


    After all, no matter how high the martial arts are, one shot will fall down. Merton is not worried about whether the Mojia village can make revolvers. If there is another place in the world that can make revolvers, it is the Mojia village. Now the Mojia village is at its peak, and a new generation of machinery is emerging one after another. The traditional handicrafts of the older generation are also exquisite. Even if they are polished by hand, they can be made.


    Hearing Merton''s description of the power of the revolver, the old people in Mojia village couldn''t help brightening their eyes. It''s so easy to carry and can be fired repeatedly. It''s a powerful weapon. It''s really the young master''s best self-defense weapon.


    "Don''t worry, young master. The Mojia village will make it as fast as possible to defend itself for the young master." Li Yi repeatedly promised.


    Other old people in Mojia village have also put down their hearts. With this sharp weapon, they are greatly relieved of Merton''s safety and no longer urge Merton to cherish his body.


    "I''ve been on the expedition for more than half a year. How about today''s Mojia village?" Merton asked about the current situation of Mojia village.


    Hearing Merton''s question, a group of old people in Mojia village couldn''t help but show a trace of pride and say, "young master, don''t worry. With the care of the princess, no one dares to embarrass Mojia village. Today''s Mojia village can be said to be thousands of miles a day, especially Meiniang. She has been working hard in the market outside. The name of the eldest martial sister of Mojia is well known all over the world, and Mojia village is better than in the past."


    Merton suddenly realized that no wonder he didn''t see Wu Meiniang when he came back. It turned out that Wu Meiniang had been working outside. As a master sister of Mohism, she was the business card of Mohism and had been running around all the time.


    "But when Mei Niang heard that the young master came back and was born with the young master, she would surely come back at the first time." Forbes said with a smile.


    Merton nodded, listened carefully to the report of Mojia village and found that everything in Mojia village was well. Then he was relieved and went back to his room to accompany Changle.

 Chapter 1139

    "Drive! Drive!"


    On the brand-new brick road in the northwest, the huge motorcade of the firearm supervisor is moving forward rapidly. With the help of Su dingfang, the firearm supervisor changes horses in batches. In addition, there are many carriages and there is no shortage of war horses. The whole army is moving towards Chang''an city at a very fast speed.


    "Triumph of the firearm supervisor!" the people of the Tang Dynasty exclaimed when they saw the firearm supervisor team. Everywhere they went, they welcomed the people''s worship and stared at the legendary army.


    "Break the city with one blow!"


    "Break five thousand with one thousand!"


    "Eight hundred miles of the sea."


    The legendary experience of the firearm supervisor made the people of the Tang Dynasty enjoy talking about it. More people stared at the tightly closed carriage of the firearm supervisor, where there was the most powerful weapon of the Tang Dynasty - gunpowder.


    The whole firearm prison is mysterious and powerful. Although any people who dare to get close to the firearm prison will welcome the eyes of firearm prison officers and soldiers, no one is disgusted, but a proud feeling arises spontaneously. This is the invincible teacher of Datang.


    The firearm monitor was very fast and soon disappeared at the end of the brick road, leaving only a voice of discussion.


    However, not long after the firearm supervisor''s motorcade, another huge Hu people''s motorcade quietly set foot on the brick road. People couldn''t help but look surprised and inquire one after another.


    "Tibetan envoy!"


    As soon as they inquired, there was an uproar. They didn''t expect that the convoy was another protagonist of the ambush in the Gobi desert, Tubo, and led by Lu Dongzan, the father of Lun Qinling, the Tubo general who ambushed mojiazi.


    Lu Dongzan set foot on a flat brick road, but his face sank. He didn''t come to Datang for many years, and the changes of Datang changed with each passing day. It turned out that only brick roads were paved around Chang''an City, but there were straight and flat brick roads as far away as the northwest.


    From Lu Dongzan''s perspective, we can naturally see the benefits of the brick road. As soon as the Tubo envoy''s team set foot on the brick road, it obviously felt that the speed was accelerated, and all these changes were written by Mohist Zi.


    His previous judgment was correct. Mozi was indeed the great enemy of Tubo. His decision to ambush Mozi was correct. Unfortunately, Tubo failed. Now Tubo has to bear the bitter fruit.


    "Bah! Tubo ambushed mojiazi, and have the face to come to Datang?" a common man spat at the Tubo convoy.


    "My son is dead, I''m on the stage myself!" another Tang people angrily scolded.


    "The son owes the father. This time, Lu Dongzan must pay for the firearm officers and soldiers." a butcher roared with a pig killing knife.


    The accompanying Tubo entourage was furious, but he was held down by ludongzan. Ludongzan wiped a handful of spit on the faces of the people of the Tang Dynasty, and said expressionless, "we came to calm the anger of the Tang Dynasty, not to cause trouble."


    The accompanying officials of Honglu Temple looked at all this coldly. Until the people were excited, they came forward to intercept and said, "Tibetan envoys are only at the disposal of the imperial court, and everything is subject to the will of the imperial court."


    "Your majesty will not spare you easily!" hearing what the officials of Honglu temple said, the people stopped and sneered one after another.


    "Da Xiang!" a group of Tibetan envoys heard the words of the people of the Tang Dynasty and looked anxiously at Ludong.


    Ludongzan shook his head and said, "don''t worry, the two armies don''t kill envoys in the war, not to mention that there is no war between Tubo and Datang, and Tian Khan may not kill Ben Daxiang."


    The Tibetan envoys could not help showing concern. Tian Khan may not kill ludongzan, but the Mohist son may not let him go.


    Lu Dongzan could not deny it, but his eyes were firm. In any case, during this trip to the Tang Dynasty, neither he nor Tubo had a way back, and he might not have no friends in Chang''an city.


    Almost at the same time, the two motorcades went straight to Chang''an city.


    Outside the east gate of Chang''an City, a fine horse galloped, which immediately attracted the attention of passers-by. The owner of the horse who really caught the attention of passers-by was a young girl of 16 or 17 years old.


    The red lips and valiant bearing of the fierce horse, coupled with the galloping horse, immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    "Whoa!"


    The horse stopped in a hurry and stopped in front of the door of the Mohist car and horse shop. The young girl was healthy and jumped off the horse.


    "Eldest martial sister, the young master has come back." a Mohist boy hurried forward to hold the horse, said happily, and wanted to pass the good news to the young girl at the first time.


    The people around him suddenly realized that this person was Wu Meiniang, the famous senior sister of the Mohist school.


    Wu Meiniang said proudly, "what''s the fuss? What can trouble the master in the world? It''s just a mere 800 miles of the vast sea."


    In Wu Meiniang''s heart, the master is a wise and omnipotent person, let alone Merton''s active pursuit this time. She has always believed that Merton can return safely.


    However, Wu Meiniang said easily, but when she heard the news of Merton''s return, she immediately rushed back to Chang''an city.


    "Eldest martial sister is wise!" the children of the Mohist school did not expose Wu Meiniang, and said casually, "younger martial brother has prepared the carriage. Please get on the bus."


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "the carriage is too slow. Prepare a fast horse for me."


    Wu Meiniang had great prestige among the children of Mohism. Soon, a fast horse moved to Wu Meiniang.


    "Drive!"


    Wu Meiniang got on her horse and immediately headed for Chang''an city. Wu Meiniang was eager to go back to the house. In addition, there were not many pedestrians in the street. Wu Meiniang''s horse speed was a lot faster.


    Suddenly, a little boy suddenly appeared at an intersection. Wu Meiniang was surprised and quickly stopped her horse. However, the horse was too fast to stop and was about to hit. Suddenly, a young man in green shirt flew forward and pulled the little boy aside, which avoided a disaster.


    "Hoo!" Wu Mei Niang was so relieved that she stopped the horse to check the situation.


    "According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, except for the hurry at the post station of 800 miles, anyone who rides a horse without reason in Chang''an city will be fined, or imprisoned for 10 days. In case of an accident, the punishment will be doubled. You know the crime, miss..." the young man in green shirt said with dignity.


    "Guilty?" Wu Meiniang suddenly became stiff and couldn''t believe looking at a young and mature young man in green shirt. He was just riding a horse and was regarded as a criminal.


    "Yes, the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, not to mention that at the foot of the emperor, the girl rode in the street and almost hurt people by mistake. This is not an additional crime." the young man in green shirt refused to spare his way.


    Wu Mei Niang smiled angrily and said coldly, "I''m really a nerd. I could have jumped over the horse. If you didn''t appear suddenly, how could the horse be frightened? The so-called almost hurt people by mistake was because of you."


    The little boy is not tall. The horse can jump over it in one jump. Wu Meiniang is very good at riding. She is very sure about it. However, the sudden appearance of the young man in green shirt frightened the horse and almost had an accident.


    The young man in green shirt frowned and said, "girl, this is a reversal of black and white, right and wrong, and contempt for the law."


    Wu Meiniang retorted, "let''s not say that this girl didn''t cause an accident. Even if this girl caused an accident, some people say that they don''t sue the officials."


    Wu Meiniang said, took out a silver note or two, handed it to the mother who held the boy tightly in her arms, and said, "go to the Mo hospital to check and see if there is any serious problem."


    One or two silver tickets are very valuable. It can be seen that the little boy was not hurt. The little boy''s mother took them and left with great gratitude.


    "It''s unfair to make atonement with money!" the young man in green shirt said angrily.


    Wu Mei Niang raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "nerd, you didn''t interpret the law of the Tang Dynasty in this way. This is the result of everyone''s joy. Although I was the one who suffered the loss, I won''t care about you if I have something urgent recently. If I meet you again next time, you will look good."


    Wu Mei Niang snorted coldly and rode away again, but this time Wu Mei Niang did not indulge the fast horse, but controlled the speed properly and slowed down at the intersection.


    "Young man, this woman is either rich or expensive. If you offend her, you''ll look good." I saw that the people around me immediately looked like watching a good play. They joked that when wandering the Jianghu, the people who can''t offend are the elderly, women and children. Wu Meiniang, a young girl, even rode in the street. How can she be an ordinary woman.


    "What can a woman do? What do you think of Xiaoyuan?" the young man in green shirt asked his entourage.


    Xiao Yuan, the attendant, said, "big... Young master, there must be something wrong with this woman. We''d better go back to the house quickly."


    The young man in green shirt hummed coldly: "when she rode a horse in the street, she wore ink clothes, and rode a carriage run by Mohist cars and horses. Coupled with her age and extraordinary conversation, she must be the famous senior sister of Mohist in Chang''an city."


    Xiaoyuan, his entourage, obviously heard of the name of the great elder martial sister of the Mohist school, and was surprised and said, "great elder martial sister of the Mohist school, young master, what should I do?"


    The young man in green shirt said proudly, "what are you afraid of? I can''t be afraid of her if I have the law of the Tang Dynasty."


    The attendant Xiaoyuan looked at the young master in a hurry and said, "why did the young master leave in such a hurry?"


    The young man in green shirt didn''t blush and his heart didn''t jump. "My young master admires the character of mohou. He''s afraid that mohou will be embarrassed, not afraid of her Wu Meiniang."


    The attendant Xiaoyuan naturally knew his young master''s temperament. He couldn''t help but sigh. They hurried, turned left and looked right. They found that no one was following, so they turned to a mansion,


    "Di Fu!"


    "Renjie!" suddenly a low voice came and fixed the body shape of the master and servant. Di Fu was named Renjie. Wu Meiniang didn''t expect that the busybody boy was the famous Di Renjie in later generations.


    Di Renjie suddenly froze, quickly turned around and saluted to the man and said, "see your father!"


    Di Zhixun looked at di Renjie, frowned and said, "my father is about to send someone to find you. My father knows that you always like the law, so he sent someone to find you a famous teacher. As long as you can get this person''s favor, you can certainly achieve something."


    "Famous teacher?" Di Renjie suddenly brightened his eyes.


    Di Zhixun nodded and said, "yes, this is a real legalist. He is Han Zheng, a former doctor of law. He is in charge of the law newspaper and corrects countless unjust, false and wrong cases. If you follow him to learn the law, it will be the honor of the di family."


    "Han Fuzi?" Di Renjie couldn''t help but rejoice. As a fan of legalism, how could he not know the name of Han Fuzi, the leader of the Dharma newspaper, and implement the rule of ink by law in Mojia village. The effect is remarkable and eye-catching.


    "No!"


    Suddenly, di Renjie''s face changed. Han Zhengke had a close relationship with Mojia village, and he just offended the senior sister of Mojia village. If he worshipped Han Zheng, he would stay in Mojia village all year round. Wouldn''t he be caught in a trap.


    "Why don''t you?" dizhison frowned.


    It''s a rare opportunity to join hanfuzi. Di Renjie naturally didn''t want to miss it. He gritted his teeth and said, "my child is willing."


    Di Renjie said coldly, "I have the laws of the Tang Dynasty to protect my body, as long as I don''t make mistakes! I''m afraid Wu Meiniang won''t succeed."

 Chapter 1140

    "Master!"


    Wu Meiniang hurried to the Mo mansion and burst into tears when she saw Merton standing in front of her.


    "Isn''t this the great elder martial sister of Mohism in Chang''an City? When will there be a little daughter? It''s funny if outsiders see her!" Merton teased when he saw Wu Meiniang''s little daughter.


    "Master makes fun of me again!" Wu Meiniang burst into tears and smiled. She would only remove her disguise in front of Merton. You know, she is just a 16-year-old girl. Now running for the future of the Mohist school has already exceeded what she should do at her age.


    Although Merton was 15 years old and was also running for the revival of Mohism, Merton was a man, a marquis, and her father''s contacts had natural advantages. As a woman, Wu Meiniang, although the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was open, she was under no less pressure than Merton at that time.


    "You did a good job when you were not a teacher!" Merton praised. He had to say that he took Wu Meiniang as an apprentice because of the reputation of later generations, but their apprentices and apprentices for several years. Now Wu Meiniang has deviated from the track of history and has not lived a miserable life like later generations. He was forced into the palace and became a canary in the cage, Instead, he became a flying eagle in the free sky of Mohism.


    "Thank you, master!"


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help feeling a little proud in her eyes. Although it was hard to run around, she enjoyed this life very much.


    When it comes to women in the world, I''m afraid that only three women are envied by everyone. One is empress changsun, mother Yi, who has the most noble status in the world. The other is Princess Changle, who falls in love with mojiazi and has the most perfect love. The other is Wu Meiniang, who holds great power at a young age. She is all powerful in the business circles of the Tang Dynasty. There is no lack of status, wealth and power, It also has the freedom that women in the Tang Dynasty dream of. Empress changsun and Princess Changle are respected. Women all over the world can only look and sigh. However, Wu Meiniang, who is famous for her ink skills, has become the most likely goal for women all over the world.


    "Meiniang is really capable. You''ve been away for half a year, and Meiniang hasn''t spared no effort." Princess Changle smiled and helped.


    During Merton''s expedition to Gaochang, Princess Changle presided over the overall situation of the Mohist house. Wu Meiniang was like the left and right arms of Princess Changle, acting on behalf of the Mohist house outside. The two people, one inside and one outside, cooperated very tacitly, which led to the steady rise of the Mohist school. Once the Mohist village left Merton, it would encounter a crisis.


    "Disciples dare not take credit for it. They didn''t embarrass me because they looked at the face of Shiniang." Wu Meiniang said modestly. As for the difficulties, only she knows. After all, Princess Changle has only one princess and has no real power. Although she is not despised, it is not enough to make the other party give in, especially the struggle for interests.


    Princess Changle could not help sighing. How could a woman compete with a group of scheming men as easily as Meiniang said.


    "This is the younger martial brother!" Wu Meiniang looked at the pink baby, couldn''t help but feel excited and picked it up to tease.


    Merton and Princess Changle looked at each other and said with a smile, "since you have returned, your junior brother''s full moon banquet is coming, I''ll leave it to you."


    "Thank you for your trust!" Wu Meiniang solemnly took over the task and suddenly whispered, "I don''t know what kind of specification master wants."


    Merton thought and said, "just have a family dinner!"


    Wu Mei Niang frowned and said, "it''s too shabby to have a family dinner! Younger martial brother is the only male in the Mo family and the only heir of the Mo family. If you don''t take this opportunity to tell the world, it''s more than people think."


    Princess Changle also turned her eyes and looked at Merton puzzled. According to the customs of the Tang Dynasty, their son is the eldest son and is the most noble, not to mention the grandson of the Royal eldest son and the MOH house. It can be said that she has respected her status since she was born. Merton''s doing so is really sour.


    Merton shook his head and said, "who told you that your younger martial brother is the only successor of Mohism. Mohism has never been a family, but only people with virtue and talent can become giants.


    "Ah!"


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help exclaiming. When she learned that Shiniang gave birth to a younger martial brother, she couldn''t help thinking.


    She is the eldest martial sister of Mohist school. Now she can walk in the Tang Dynasty on behalf of Mohist school. Although she is a woman, she has convinced Mohist people by her own means. It can be said that she has become the No. 2 figure in Mohist school.


    Before the birth of Mosha, although the master could say that he loved her, even begged for a million hectares of land, and vowed to turn the desert into an oasis, so that Mosha would honor her life as soon as she was born. Rao is so, there is no ripple in Wu Meiniang''s heart. After all, Mosha is also a girl. Wu Meiniang, who is also a woman, naturally knows how difficult it is for a woman to get ahead.


    However, in the face of the younger martial brother who has just been born less than a month, Wu Meiniang knows that even the younger martial brother is still crying for food, but he is the natural heir of Mohism. As long as he grows up, just cheer up and Mohist followers will surely gather, including her Wu Meiniang.


    At the moment, Wu Meiniang has not experienced the darkness of her previous life. Naturally, she has not blackened. In her heart, she has made a plan to pave the way for her younger martial brother, which can be regarded as a reward for her kindness. However, she did not expect that master should be so. Mohism will not be the family and the world. Isn''t that.


    Merton smiled: "Your younger martial brother may be the successor of Mohist school, because this is the family background left to him by your martial mother and me, but Mohist school is the aggregation of the efforts of countless sages for thousands of years. There are deep-rooted disadvantages in the family and the world. Mohist school wants to stand in the contention of a hundred schools of thought. It is a big taboo for the family and the world. It has always been based on the position of a powerful man, not by arranging funds and discussing generations, not because he is a giant Zi''s son is also the eldest disciple of the giant. Those who are capable go up and those who are mediocre go down. This is the foundation for the long-term prosperity of Mohism. Can you understand what it means to be a teacher! "


    Wu Meiniang stressed the point and said, "I understand!"


    If others say so, Wu Meiniang must have doubts in her heart, but Wu Meiniang believes what master said, because she knows that in master''s heart, the revival of Mohism is the first priority.


    "Can Changle complain about this arrangement for her husband?" after Wu Meiniang left, Merton turned and looked at the silent Princess of Changle.


    Changle turned his eyes and said coldly, "who cares about your Mohist family background? You can find a great future for your son just by your concubine."


    After all, his son is the eldest grandson of the royal family. Even if he does not inherit Mohism, he will be rich and prosperous.


    "There is no need to make deliberate arrangements. It depends on his own choice. As a parent, he only needs his child to live a smooth life and grow up healthily." Merton looked at his son with pity.


    Princess Changle solemnly nodded and said, "in that case, our son might as well be called Motan!"


    Merton had been in danger for a long time before, and the risk of dystocia made Princess Changle feel a little more about her son''s safety, which was the idea of Merton''s name.


    Merton raised his eyebrows and looked at Changle in surprise. Although the name of the Mohist school has always been in kind, the name of Princess Changle is so unique that he has no reason to refuse.


    "OK! It''s mertan! I hope he lives up to his name." Merton said with a strange smile.

 Chapter 1141

    "Family dinner!"


    With Wu Meiniang''s busy operation, the specifications of mertan''s full moon banquet were slowly spread out, which immediately caused an uproar.


    The family banquet is the minimum standard of the full moon banquet. It doesn''t meet the identity of the eldest son of the Mo family at all. It can''t help but make people confused. You know, even small families will do a big job once they have incense, let alone the son of Princess Changle and the eldest grandson of the royal family. The family banquet is really too simple.


    You should know that when the female Mosha of the Mohist parents was born, she was loved by thousands. The Mohist family paved the way for her just after the full moon, so that Mosha could glorify her life. As the eldest son of the Mohist family, once born, it means that the Mohist family and the Mohist family have a next generation of successors, no matter how large it is.


    "I''ve heard that the Mohists never accept gifts for banquet, so they don''t have a big banquet." some people guess according to the idea of ordinary people that for ordinary people, the cost of banquet should be equal to the cost of receiving gifts. If the host family doesn''t receive gifts, no one does such stupid things as big banquet. I''m afraid ordinary people will empty out their family at one time.


    "It''s a vulgar view. The Mohist is the richest in the world. How can you care about this little money? Let alone the eldest son of the Mohist has both Mohist and royal blood. You can''t lose your face."


    "Yes! Merton''s move is very abnormal. It is said that if something is abnormal, there must be demons. I think the Mohists deliberately positioned the eldest son''s full moon banquet as a family banquet, and there must be a greater plot."


    "Plot?"


    "Think about it! Last time, the female Mosha of the Mohist parents granted a million hectares of land. Now that the eldest son of the Mohist family was born, he may ask for something valuable. The Mohist son is just pretending to be reserved."


    Previously, Merton proposed to reward millions of hectares of Mu Us Desert for Mo''s parent female Mosha, which was secretly satirized by many people. Now the governance of Mu Us desert has achieved initial results, and many people have changed from satire to jealousy.


    Many people maliciously speculated that Mozi would have a long-term plan if he gave up small profits, so the company commander''s female Mozi carefully paved the way for him, not to mention the eldest son of Mozi.


    People have speculated about what road Mozi will pave for the eldest son this time, so as to deserve the identity of the eldest son of Mozi.


    "Could it be that this time it was Songjiang mansion, which was proposed by the minister last time." some people speculated that after these years of development, Songjiang mansion has long been different from the past and has become a textile center in the world, which is enough to be compared with the reward of Mosha.


    "No! In my opinion, it must be the south of Chang''an City, and the scale of Mojia village must be doubled."


    This guess was immediately recognized by many people. You should know that Mohist village is the foundation of Mohism. The eldest son of Mohism must inherit Mohist village and naturally consolidate the base camp.


    "It could also be the 800 Li sea. The 800 Li sea is much more than the Mu Us Desert. Besides, the Mohists have already had experience in controlling the desert and have just returned from there." this guess was immediately despised by the public. The Mohists are addicted to controlling the desert. Moreover, the 800 Li sea is a barren land and is far away in the western regions, There is no greater threat than the Mu Us Desert, and there is no need to control it.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People in Chang''an City have different opinions, and many of them have big brain holes.


    Wu Mei Niang ignored these rumors, but wholeheartedly prepared the full moon banquet. Although Merton said a family banquet, everyone knew that there were dignitaries and ladies among the guests, and even the queen would come, so it was natural to prepare with high standards.


    Fortunately, Wu Meiniang''s recent wandering has long been different. In addition, with the opening of brick road, many rare treasures from all over the world have emerged in Chang''an city. Wu Meiniang has soon made a plan.


    "Shopkeeper, pack these for me." Wu Meiniang waved her hand and bought all the rare treasures transported from Jiangnan cold storage.


    "OK, elder martial sister, do you want me to deliver it to the door!" the shopkeeper naturally knew Wu Meiniang and hurriedly said hello.


    "No, I brought someone."


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and waved her hand. Several Mohist children quickly came forward to pack. All they wanted were ready-made goods. Each box was marked to track the source.


    The shopkeeper of the Department Store couldn''t help being embarrassed, but for the sake of Wu Meiniang''s generosity, she had to bear it.


    "Elder martial sister, it''s ready to go!" the Mohist children finished packing and said hello.


    "You go first, I have something to do!" Wu Meiniang waved to the children of the Mohist family to escort Qizhen back to the Mohist house, and then quietly turned into an empty alley.


    Soon after Wu Meiniang entered the alley, a man followed her stealthily.


    "Sand!" the sound of the dagger coming out of the scabbard sounded. Wu Meiniang went down the mountain with a fierce tiger and stabbed directly at the people following her, leaving no room at all.


    The dead souls of the people who followed took risks. Unexpectedly, Wu Meiniang just killed her. She shouted, "Wu Meiniang, do you really want to kill your brother!"


    The person who followed showed his face. It was Wu yuanshuang. He looked at the dagger in Wu Meiniang''s hand and the blade of the dagger. If he stabbed him, I''m afraid his life would be lost.


    Wu Mei Niang snorted coldly, put away the dagger and said coldly, "only those things you have done can''t be worth ten lives."


    Wu yuanshuang said with a smile, "even if others have a hundred reasons to kill me, your Wu Meiniang is not qualified to kill me. After all, I''m your brother."


    "Don''t get close. Since you drove me out of the Wu mansion, you are not qualified to be my brother." Wu Meiniang said in a false color.


    Wu yuanshuang said without shame, "what you have is the blood of Ziqian family. One day, when you face my choice at that time, I think you have done ten times and a hundred times more cruel than me."


    "If you just say this nonsense, you can disappear and avoid polluting my eyes." Wu Meiniang looked at Wu yuanshuang and turned to leave.


    "The Mohist family has a son. Does the Mohist family still have a place for you?" Wu yuanshuang sneered.


    Wu Mei Niang frowned and turned back and said, "what do you mean?"


    "The Mohist family has a legitimate successor. All you do in the Mohist family is to make wedding clothes for Merton''s son. Don''t tell me you have no mind about the position of the Mohist giant. You are the descendant of the Ziqian family. Greed is your nature. As a woman, you can''t make achievements in officialdom. The position of the Mohist giant is your ultimate goal." Wu yuanshuang bewitched.


    "So what!" Wu Mei Niang nodded without hesitation.


    "So what? As long as the eldest son of Mohism exists, you can never control Mohism, but who calls you my sister? The second brother can help you. You and my brother and sister work together. The second brother controls the Ziqian family, and you control Mohism. Who will be the opponent of you and my brother and sister in the world at that time." Wu yuanshuang said proudly.


    Wu Meiniang looked at Wu yuanshuang''s face. Compared with Merton''s black face, they were similar in age, but their ways of doing things were very different. She couldn''t help feeling disgusted and said: "Do you know why you can''t fight master? Because your mind and pattern are very different. You and Ziqian family are slaves of money all their life, while master and Mohist family are masters of money. They use money to realize their dreams instead of for pleasure and selfishness. If I want to be a giant of Mohist school, I will only fight for it openly, not by mean means."


    Wu yuanshuang looked at Wu Meiniang with pity on his face and said, "the second brother doesn''t know what enchanting soup Mozi has given you. But looking at the history books, in addition to the three emperors and five emperors, how many people in the world will pass their positions to their disciples instead of their sons, not to mention you are still a female disciple? The family banquet is just Mozi fishing for fame and reputation. This time, you can''t tell how many fiefs you will take the opportunity to earn for your son?"


    "Mohism has always been passed on to disciples." Wu Meiniang calmly retorted.


    Wu yuanshuang can''t help but stagnate. It is irrefutable that the giants of Mohism in previous dynasties are really not in the world.


    "That''s because Mozi is a saint, and after Mozi, Mohism has declined to the extreme. Mohist giants are just a joke. However, today, Mohism controls huge wealth. The position of Mohist giants is not the same as before. People die for money. Birds die for food. The Ziqian family has operated money for thousands of years. They have witnessed countless dignified people who show their ugliness because of money It''s an exception. His descendants should know that today''s Mohist school is the Mohist School of Mohists. You''re always just an outsider. If you figure it out, you can come to me at any time. "


    After Wu yuanshuang finished, he turned and left the alley. Naturally, he knew that it was impossible to encourage Wu Meiniang at once. Ziqian family was the best at bewitching people. He just needed to bury a seed in Wu Meiniang''s heart. Once Wu Meiniang was frustrated in Mohism, the seed would soon grow into a towering tree.


    Wu Mei Niang''s heart was cold. She didn''t believe a word about Wu yuanshuang''s words. She had seen Wu yuanshuang''s cruel side with her own eyes. Compared with Merton, who acted openly and aboveboard, who was more credible at a glance. What''s more, in the Mohist school, she was a powerful senior sister of the Mohist school. If she really listened to Wu yuanshuang, I''m afraid she would only be his puppet all her life.

 Chapter 1142

    According to custom, the full moon banquet is usually held before the full moon. Soon, the day of the full moon banquet of the eldest son of the Mohist school will come.


    Early in the morning, the ink house began to be lively. All the servants went to battle together to clean the inside and outside of the ink house.


    Uncle Yu and his son are in charge of the spoon. Uncle Yu specially returned from Luoyang for the full moon banquet of Motan. Yu Er is in charge of it. The yuzhuangyuan building is closed today. All personnel go to the Mo mansion to help and strive to be perfect. It can be seen how much attention the Mohists pay to the full moon banquet of Motan.


    The birth of Mo Tan means that there are successors in Mo Village and that the prosperity of Mo Village can continue. Even if Wu Meiniang does it well, it can not be replaced.


    "Uncle Li!"


    "Uncle Wang!"


    "Uncle Zhang!"


    The first to arrive at Mo mansion was naturally a group of Mohist villagers. Seeing Li Yi and others coming, Merton repeatedly said hello.


    "Merton has incense, and I Li Yi finally don''t deserve the trust of my adoptive brother. My adoptive brother knows it underground, and I can smile when I know it." Li Yi tearfully said.


    "Brother Li, this is a happy day. Don''t say these words!" although Lao Zhang was excited, when he heard Li Yi say so, he quickly advised him.


    "Yes! It''s a day of great joy. You should be happy." one armed Uncle Wang said proudly, but his eyes were involuntarily wet.


    Merton nodded heavily. Merlie died early, and when he was a child, how to support the Mojia village naturally depended on the support of several Uncle Li and others until he grew up. It can be said that Merton can have today, and the people in the Mojia village can''t do without it.


    Li Yi and others were not polite when they came to the Mo mansion. They quickly went everywhere to help, which greatly relieved Wu Meiniang''s pressure. Only then did they have time to come to the gate of the Mo mansion and stand at the gate to welcome guests.


    "Mo Hou has a son, Congratulations!" Sun Simiao came together with Mo Wu. It can be said that today, doctors can''t do without the support of Mo family. Sun Simiao naturally came to congratulate Mo Tan''s full moon banquet in person.


    "Doctor sun, you''re welcome. Please come in!" Merton quickly thanked and asked Mo Wu to take doctor sun into Mo''s house.


    Later, although no one from the Taoists, Kongs and Buddhists came, they still sent congratulatory gifts and tables. Merton accepted the table and still did not receive congratulatory gifts. The three families also knew Merton''s rules and did not insist. They just expressed their attitude. After all, there was no face torn among the hundreds of schools.


    Just after the three families left, Han Fuzi came quietly, followed by a strange teenager, some of whom hid behind Han Fuzi.


    "Master!" Merton hurried forward.


    Han Fuzi laughed and said, "time is really fleeting. Even you Merton have both children, and the master is old."


    Han Fuzi was already the oldest doctor of the National Academy of Sciences. After resigning from the National Academy of Sciences, he joined Mojia village. In addition, the operation of FA Bao has been particularly aging in recent years.


    "Master is old and strong, why do you sigh so much!" Merton laughed.


    Han Fuzi shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "my body can''t last for a few years. Today, I''m congratulating Xi. Second, I''ve recruited a new closed disciple and specially introduced it to you. I''m afraid he will cooperate with Mohism on behalf of me in the future."


    "Oh! It''s that young talent who can get into the teacher''s eyes!" Merton said with surprise. I''m afraid he must be very satisfied with this disciple if he can let Han Fu Zi explain so.


    Han Fuzi stretched out his hand and waved, "huaiying, this is the Mo family you admire most. According to the seniority, it can be regarded as your senior brother. Don''t come forward to see the ceremony."


    The young man behind Han Fuzi dodged in his eyes and reluctantly stepped out of the line and said, "see senior brother huaiying."


    "Is it you?" Wu Meiniang said coldly as she looked at the young man.


    Merton''s eyes flashed and said, "have you seen it?"


    Wu Mei Niang raised her nose slightly and said proudly, "who knows him, a nosy nerd."


    The boy couldn''t help smiling awkwardly and didn''t argue.


    After Merton and Mr. Han understood the specific situation, they couldn''t help laughing. They didn''t expect such interesting things.


    "This is an apprentice just accepted by the master. His surname is di Renjie and his character is Huai Ying. Huai Ying is obsessed with the law and hates evil as hatred. He can''t see any violation of the law and discipline. I''m afraid it''s really something a little apprentice can do to stop Mei Niang from riding on the horse in the street." Han Fu Zi said not angrily but happily. He had to say that what Di Renjie did is quite in line with his temperament. Similarly, he can''t rub the sand in his eyes.


    "Di Renjie?" Merton was suddenly surprised. He didn''t expect the famous Di Renjie to appear in front of him. He had seen Di Renjie''s father and moved his mind. However, di Renjie didn''t study Mohism. In addition, he had accepted Wu Meiniang as an apprentice, so Merton lightened his mind. He didn''t expect to be taken back by Han Fuzi.


    "The students are always busy and don''t have time to discipline Meiniang. They have developed Meiniang''s lawless character. Huaiying can make Meiniang abide by the law and be upright. It can be seen that the master''s vision is extremely high. It''s really lucky that the master can find such relics." Merton couldn''t help praising.


    "The remains of the sea!" Han Fuzi was delighted when he heard Merton''s praise. He brought Di Renjie to Merton and meant to let Merton palm his eyes. Unexpectedly, Merton rated Di Renjie so highly.


    "Thank you for your help. I hope you won''t live up to these four words in the future." Han turned to di Renjie and admonished him.


    "Elder martial brother, I''m sorry for your praise." Di Renjie said humbly.


    "The master has successors, which is really gratifying. Meiniang, huaiying is young, so you will receive her." Merton saw another guest coming and told Wu Meiniang.


    Wu Mei Niang chuckled and reluctantly led Di Renjie into the Mo mansion. When she couldn''t see the master, she stared at di Renjie and said, "boy, you dare to step on me to make a name for yourself. Since you worship under the name of Han Fuzi, you will stay in the Mo Village and fall into my hands. See how rampant you are."


    "What boy? According to the seniority, you should call me martial uncle." Di Renjie felt the law of the Tang Dynasty in his sleeve and said calmly.


    "Martial uncle Huan, you are younger than me and dare to talk big." Wu Mei Niang angrily scolded.


    Di Renjie said proudly, "ambition is not high in age, not to mention seniority. Besides, mohou and I are half the same family."


    "Don''t get close. You''re a legalist and master is a Mohist. You''re just polite. You''re serious. I don''t know if master looked away and said you were a legacy of the sea. If you dare to provoke me again, I''ll beat you into a pig''s head." Wu Meiniang held Xiuquan and threatened, so she threw Di Renjie aside and left proudly.


    Di Renjie stretched out his hand and lifted it. The law of the Tang Dynasty was right in the palm of his hand. He suddenly became more courageous and said, "according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, if you beat others innocently, you will be imprisoned for one month, or you will be fined three times. It is said that Wu Meiniang has ink skills and has a lot of money. If she atones for her sins with money, wouldn''t i..."


    Di Renjie immediately fell into a tangle.

 Chapter 1143

    "Congratulations, marquis Mo, there are successors!"


    "Thank you, thank you!"


    Although Merton held a family banquet, many people still came. Everyone knows that Merton and Princess Changle''s eldest son''s full moon banquet will certainly be attended by Li Shimin. However, everyone who is related to the royal family will come and refuse to miss the opportunity to meet Li Shimin. Even if eldest sun Wuji doesn''t deal with Mozi, he is Changle''s uncle after all, After all, empress Chang sun''s face was there, but Chang sun Chong didn''t show up.


    After a while, a group of Royal relatives and relatives came to the ink house. Merton didn''t know. He was shocked. Li Shimin even played such a big game of chess with his marriage.


    I''m afraid his son-in-law''s title was the lowest, and Li Shimin didn''t like him at that time, so he grabbed it.


    "Mo boy finally has a queen, I can rest assured." Qin Qiong''s voice has reached Merton''s ear before they arrive.


    Merton turned his head. Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde came together and hurriedly greeted them and said, "Uncle Qin, uncle Cheng, uncle Yuchi."


    "You came back safely and had your son again. Such a double happiness is really a great joy." Cheng Yaojin laughed.


    Yuchi Jingde was not good at words. He solemnly patted Merton on the shoulder. He was gratified.


    "The three uncles are flattered. Please come in quickly." Merton said modestly, extending his hand to invite the three into the ink house.


    "The emperor, Queen and empress arrived!"


    When Qin Qiong and her three were ready to go in, a notice came suddenly. Li Shimin and empress Chang sun came together.


    "See the emperor and queen!"


    The people came to the ceremony one after another. The focus of the original ink house instantly shifted from Merton to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin''s face was full of spring breeze. He greeted the ministers warmly. Looking at the noisy Li Shimin, he naturally didn''t dare to complain. He turned and motioned to Wu Meiniang who came quietly behind him: "have a banquet!"


    With the guests seated and the full moon banquet opened, plates of delicacies were brought up. Since the brick road was built, goods from all over the world have been transported to Chang''an city. Although the price has doubled several times, it has greatly enriched the life of the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    Wu Meiniang did it with her heart. The ingredients of Motan''s full moon banquet are first-class treasures. Coupled with the superb cooking skills of Uncle Yu and his son, even Li Shimin is full of praise.


    After three rounds of wine, it''s natural for today''s protagonist to appear. When Merton took his son out, it pushed the full moon banquet to a climax.


    The eldest son of Mo family and the eldest grandson of the royal family, no matter which identity, this baby is extraordinary at birth, not to mention the two identities of Mo tan.


    "Motan, that''s a good name! His life is flat and open." Li Shimin took over his grandson and said with a smile.


    "Thank you for your praise!" Merton thanked repeatedly. Although mertan had another meaning in his heart, only he could understand it without saying it at all.


    "Your Majesty''s golden words say that this son will not be in the pool in the future." the People Echoed one after another.


    Everyone knows that as long as mertan grows up healthily, he will be plain sailing and rich.


    Changsun Wuji also looked at Motan kindly. He said that the child also had some blood relationship with him. He seemed to say unintentionally: "four years ago, when Princess Jinsha was born, Duke Mo asked for millions of hectares of desert as a fief. Four years later, the Mu Us desert became an oasis. It can be said to be an amazing move. I don''t know what reward Duke Mo will ask for the Royal grandson today?"


    As soon as the elder sun Wuji said this, all his royal relatives and relatives immediately agreed with him. When the million acre fief of Mosha came out, there was an uproar all over the world. Neither the scale nor the location of the fief was unprecedented, but everyone of such a strange fief had no objection. The Mohist School gained a reputation and the royal family gained practical benefits, We should know that mojiazi has invested a lot of wealth in the desert to turn the desert into an oasis. This is a win-win thing, and everyone is happy to see its success.


    Mozi spent so much effort to cultivate his parents'' daughter. Isn''t the eldest son of Mozi going to be better? People can''t help but secretly expect Mozi''s amazing move again.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "the boy is not going to ask for any reward for mertan."


    "Ah!"


    All the people were surprised. Mozi was indeed an amazing move. This surprise was not how amazing Mozi''s requirements were, but that there were no requirements.


    "Why? Motan is my grandson. How can I be stingy?" Li Shimin couldn''t help but wonder.


    Merton arched his hand and said: "naturally, Weichen will not doubt his Majesty''s love for mertan, but that mertan is a boy and should not be awarded prematurely. This is not a blessing for him, but a heavy burden that will eventually destroy him."


    "Since Marquis Mo thought these honors were a burden, why did Princess Mosha arrange such a special honor since she was a child." the eldest sun Wuji asked everyone''s voice.


    "Because Martha is a girl and mertan is a boy!" Merton did not avoid, but gave the answer directly.


    Everyone frowned. What''s the reason? Can girls have these honors, but boys can''t. You know, most people value men over women and want to give all the good things to their sons. On the contrary, mojiazi values women over men, leaving only the good things to their daughters and not to their sons at all.


    Merton explained: "Mo''s view of parenting is that he is poor to have a son and rich to have a daughter, so he will treat his daughter and son differently."


    "Poor son and rich daughter?" they were stunned! I don''t understand what Merton means.


    Merton laughed and said, "the reason why I have a poor son is that as a boy, I want to get married and start a business in the future. If I let him worry free all his life, he can only be like a flower in a glass greenhouse. He can''t stand the wind, frost, rain and snow. At least he can''t recover, and he can''t do anything in his life. At most, he will become a arrogant dandy and eventually lose his family."


    The people nodded silently. As rich and noble families, they have seen too many ups and downs of families, which are caused by the failure of future generations. These unsuccessful future generations have a common problem, that is, being spoiled.


    When changsun Wuji felt a pain in his heart, he found that he had made a serious mistake, that is, to cultivate changsun Chong into a flower in the greenhouse. Changsun Chong can be said to be the most distinguished person besides the prince. His father is the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty, and his aunt is the queen of changsun. He has always been in the wind and water with a golden spoon since he was born. If there is no accident, Chang sun Chong should have spent his life smoothly, but unfortunately he met the Mexican family, suffered the biggest setback in his life, and never recovered.


    All along, he thought it was Merton who hurt Chang sun Chong. Now when he heard Merton''s theory that he was poor to raise a son, he suddenly realized that it was he who caused Chang sun Chong to fail.


    "What about the rich adopted daughter?" Li Shimin asked curiously.


    Merton said with a smile: "naturally, to enrich a daughter is to cultivate her temperament, broaden her vision and enhance her insight and taste. Girls should see more about the world, otherwise they will be coaxed away by a little sweet talk in the future."


    "I was coaxed away by a little sweet talk from others!" Li Shimin immediately felt sad. Why didn''t his princess Changle be coaxed away by your boy.

 Chapter 1144

    The outer courtyard of Mo house is the place for men to hold a banquet, but the full moon banquet focuses on women, and the inner house villa of Mo house is the place for women''s family members to hold a banquet.


    The center here is naturally the empress changsun and Princess Changle. It has been nearly a month. Princess Changle''s body has almost recovered. Of course, she can''t go out. The empress changsun talked with Princess Changle, who was in confinement, and a group of dignitaries and ladies echoed.


    But Princess Changle was absent-minded. Since Merton held mertan to the front yard, Princess Changle looked at the front yard from time to time. Empress changsun smiled and didn''t say anything.


    "Come back, little Marquis has brought back." a dignitary lady shouted when she saw Liu e coming back with mertan in her arms.


    "Why did you come back so soon?" Princess Changle was surprised. You know, it took a lot of time before the Mosha full moon banquet, but Mosha was much faster.


    "Tell the princess that after the son-in-law reported the young master to his majesty, he let the maidservant bring him back." Liu e answered truthfully.


    "Come, let the palace embrace the grandson!" the eldest grandson queen reached out her hand to hold mertan, teased the child, and asked, "by the way, what title did your majesty grant his grandson!"


    With the example of Mosha and pearl jade in front, empress Chang sun naturally hoped that Mosha would have a good future and be beneficial to the country.


    Princess Changle also turned her eyes and looked forward to it. After all, who doesn''t want her son to be rich and prosperous, and other dignitaries and ladies can''t help listening.


    However, Liu e shook her head and said, "Your Majesty has not granted any titles. The son-in-law said that he would have a poor son and a rich daughter and would not give any awards to the young master."


    "Poor son, rich daughter?" all the women were stunned and puzzled.


    When Liu e repeated Merton''s theory, there was an uproar in the audience. She had poor sons and rich daughters. This parenting concept, which is very different from that of the Tang Dynasty, surprised everyone. After careful examination, she found that it really has deep meaning. Which of the black sheep since ancient times was not spoiled.


    The eldest grandson could not help thinking of Li Chengqian many years ago. Li Chengqian was made Prince by Li Shimin since childhood. He had a crown prince aura all his life, and was smart and lovely. However, an accident made Li Chengqian suffer from foot disease and was not good for walking. If he was an ordinary child, he would slowly accept this reality, but Li Chengqian failed. He was the prince of that year, He is the heir to the throne. A disabled Prince is the biggest joke God has played on him.


    Although Li Chengqian tried his best to be normal and virtuous, all his changes were looked at by her as a mother, but she was powerless.


    Fortunately, Li Chengqian met Mo Jiazi. First, he used special shoes to make Li Chengqian walk normally, and then supported doctors to finally cure Li Chengqian''s foot disease. Only then did Li Chengqian return to normal. I''m afraid no one knows whether Li Chengqian''s heart has healed.


    "Don''t blame Merton. He is wholeheartedly good for children!" empress changsun turned to Princess Changle. As the queen of the mother instrument world, she naturally understood that Merton''s decision was right. Too much honor will only destroy a child.


    Princess Changle smiled knowingly and said, "that''s nature. Tan''er will see his ability in the future. If he is really talented, his father will not treat him badly. If his life is mediocre, he can be a rich man and be safe all his life."


    "The princess''s words are different. The so-called tiger father has no dog son. Marquis Mo is amazing. How can the little Marquis be different."


    "Not to mention that mohou''s followers are well-known. Meiniang''s name as the eldest martial sister of the Mohist family is famous in the Tang Dynasty. It''s really a woman, not to mention that this is mohou''s own son."


    "That is, every time mohou teaches disciples, the people of Chang''an have followed suit, and it has quite miraculous effects. In my opinion, from now on, the parenting style of Chang''an city will change greatly."


    The more dignitaries and ladies appreciate Merton''s words, the more they feel justified. How can parents all over the world harm their children? Moreover, what kind of person is Mozi? Even if he uses this concept of parenting to raise children, this method must be effective. You should know that Mohist''s reputation is outside, and with Wu Meiniang''s pearl jade in front, no one doubts Mohist''s means of educating people.


    Wu Meiniang was even more moved. Wu yuanshuang thought that Mohist Zi had a greater plot to hold a family dinner for Motan. However, he didn''t think that Merton really had no plot and didn''t seek any benefit for her son at all, which made her more firm in her heart.


    "My family has been handed down for three generations. If I raise a black sheep, I''m afraid the century old inheritance of that family will be cut off. It seems that I have to strictly discipline the men in my family." an old lady of the government sighed.


    Dignitaries and ladies nodded one after another. The most important thing in the family is the next generation. These women''s usual task is to teach their husband and children, but although they are strict, they are more doting on boys. Now they finally have a theoretical and methodological guidance for parenting, and they can''t help understanding it a little more.


    With the end of the full moon banquet of the eldest son of the Mohist school, the idea of the poor adopted son and rich adopted daughter of the Mohist school immediately spread all over Chang''an City, and everyone who heard it was in an uproar.


    "The Mohist school is too biased! It even values women over men!" an old man was shocked when he heard his words. In the concept of the older generation, men are the foundation of a family''s prosperity. However, the Mohist school did the opposite, but what he said is somewhat reasonable.


    "What do you know? Since ancient times, people have great responsibilities. They must work hard first. I''m afraid the idea of Mo''s poor son comes from this." a Confucian student nodded and agreed. Merton''s move has a Confucian style.


    "I don''t know what I''m trying to do. Even the Mohists are poor to raise their sons. I''ll teach them in the way of the Mohists." an admirer of the Mohists said without hesitation.


    Many people nodded one after another. In Chang''an City, some people may not be satisfied with the Mohist school, but no one denied the wisdom of the Mohist school. Suddenly, Chang''an city began to raise a culture of poor sons, which can not only cultivate the next generation, but also save money openly. Why not? It''s unknown whether they have rich daughters.


    "Mojiazi, I hate you!"


    For a moment, the young people in Chang''an City were crying and complaining. The days when clothes came to reach out and food came to open their mouths were gone. Those who were more sad and urged had to work. They said, "work their muscles and bones." of course, no one would be willing to starve their skin.


    In the palace, Li Zhi looked at his half of the case money and half of the eunuch maids, and then looked at the double case money and maids of Jinyang princess. He was angry and gnashed his teeth secretly.


    "Good brother-in-law, I''m so bitter for your pit! There''s only 100 yuan in January. How do you ask me to spend it? It''s just the poorest prince in the world!"

 Chapter 1145

    "How can I feel that the young slave is very dissatisfied with me!" Merton accompanied Changle, who has just been out of the month, to the legislative palace and went back to his mother''s house. He happened to meet Li Zhi. Merton, who doesn''t know that he has become the public enemy of the world''s young people, got a snub.


    Princess Changle smiled and whispered in Merton''s ear. Merton suddenly realized it.


    He did not expect that his childcare Sutra would be implemented in the Imperial Palace by the empress changsun, and Li Zhi became the most direct victim.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "there is not enough money for a hundred passes in January. It seems that the Royal concept of poverty is really different from ordinary people."


    "I''d better find a chance to compensate the poor child!" Merton shook his head with a bitter smile and entered the legislative hall with Princess Changle.


    In the hall, Princess Changle and empress changsun talked about themselves, while Merton was called aside by Li Shimin.


    "How long will the firearms supervision team arrive in Chang''an?" Li Shimin asked.


    Merton thought and said, "according to the post station, the firearm supervision team still has three days to reach Chang''an city."


    On the return trip, the firearms supervisor had been on his way with all his strength. Rao was so. It still took more than a month from Yumen pass to Chang''an city. Of course, it was very fast compared with the previous March.


    "Hahaha, I can''t wait to see this famous teacher," Li Shimin said with a loud laugh.


    This time during the western expedition, the firearm prison was a new force. First, it broke Gaochang city with one attack, and then it became famous in the field. But it surprised Li Shimin.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty, you won''t let your majesty down." Merton solemnly promised that after a life and death war, the firearms prison has completed a qualitative transformation, which is enough to deliver a satisfactory answer to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly, looked at Merton, hesitated and said, "I asked you to come. In addition to the firearms prison, there is another thing you need to know."


    "Your Majesty," Morton said in surprise.


    Li Shimin''s face showed a strange way: "Tubo sent envoys to Tang, offered heavy gifts and wanted to ask for peace. I''m afraid I''m about to reach Chang''an city."


    "Tubo sent envoys to Tang?" Merton raised his eyebrows. Tubo had just ambushed the firearms supervisor. It was a war without declaration. I didn''t expect that Tubo still had the courage to come to Tang for peace.


    "Is the special envoy of the mission ludongzan?" Li Shimin said surprisingly again


    "Lu Dongzan?"


    Merton''s eyes suddenly brightened. Ludongzan was the man behind the ambush of the firearm prison, but he didn''t expect ludongzan to throw himself into the net.


    "A generation of heroes!" Merton sighed.


    Li Shimin nodded silently and said, "ludongzan must know that his son has been buried in Huangsha, and his life is near death, but he still came to the Tang Dynasty. This decisive heart, coupled with the spirit of dedication to Tubo, is indeed a hero of the previous generation."


    "No, the generation of heroes mentioned by Weichen is not ludongzan, but Songzanganbu." Merton shook his head and said.


    "Song Zan Gan Bu!" Li Shimin was surprised and looked at Merton.


    Merton explained: "ludongzan is indeed a famous face of a generation. There is no lack of courage and courage. Even if it is an ambush of the firearm prison, even if it is in a hostile position, Wei Chen has to say that ludongzan is bold. However, it is more frightening for Songzan Ganbu who can drive such talents to die."


    Merton praised Lu Dongzan and did not forget to put gold on his face.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but have a flash in his eyes. He couldn''t help but show Datang''s intelligence about Songzan Ganbu, and he couldn''t help being more vigilant in his heart.


    "In addition to seeking peace, Lu Dongzan has another task, that is to ask for marriage for Songzan Ganbu." Li Shimin said.


    "Ask for a marriage? Your majesty has ordered Datang not to make peace, not to cede land, not to pay compensation. What does Songzanganbu mean by this?" Merton frowned.


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "it is said that Songzan Ganbu fell in love with the daughter of a merchant in Datang and asked Datang to allow him to marry her as a princess."


    Merton couldn''t help laughing. He didn''t expect to hear the story of Prince and Cinderella in Datang, but the story changed its taste.


    Songzan Ganbu is the king of a country. If he wants to marry a merchant''s daughter, how can he need Li Shimin''s consent? I''m afraid he wants to fight for the title of princess in another way when he sees that Datang is no longer a princess.


    "I called you here because ludongzan has a grudge against you. I''ll leave the decision to you. It''s up to you to decide what to do with the Tubo mission and ludongzan, whether to make peace or fight." Li Shimin looked at Merton and said.


    On Qinling''s ambush against the firearms warden, which killed more than 100 officers and soldiers of the firearms warden, almost didn''t cause the dystocia of Princess Changle. Lu Dongzan is behind all this. Now Lu Dongzan himself comes to the door, which is the best time for Merton to take revenge.


    Moreover, at this moment, the Tang Dynasty has just conquered Gaochang, and the power of gunpowder frightens the four barbarians. At this time, Tubo dared to provoke the Tang Dynasty. How can Li Shimin not be angry.


    However, to Li Shimin''s surprise, Merton shook his head slowly and said, "Weichen believes that this is not the time to fight with Tubo. It is better to hold peace talks with Tubo this time."


    "Peace talks?" Li Shimin was surprised and couldn''t believe staring at Merton. Unexpectedly, Merton''s great enemy was in front and let Lu Dongzan go.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "Datang has just experienced an expedition. The Treasury is empty. Coupled with Datang''s economic development, it needs a lot of money. There is really no national strength to fight against Tubo."


    Li Shimin could not help but freeze. Datang was indeed a strong country, but he spent more money and could not afford two successive wars.


    "What''s more, Tubo has just been unified. Songzan Ganbu is a young man and a hero of a generation. Tubo soldiers have always been brave and good at fighting. In addition, in the Tubo plateau, the plateau reaction is strong, and our army''s combat effectiveness is greatly reduced. We can''t help Tubo at all. Instead of letting Datang have one more enemy, we''d better hold peace talks and appease Tubo temporarily." Merton explained.


    "High altitude reaction! Is it really God bless Tubo!" Li Shimin sighed. Rhodiola is not good at dealing with high altitude reaction. It can alleviate high altitude reaction at ordinary times, but once the war is violent, the effect of Rhodiola is very little. Otherwise, why wait so long? When Tubo ambushed the firearms prison, Datang was afraid to have sent troops to Tubo.


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, the so-called plateau reaction is just an unsolved physiological reaction. As long as we can know its principle, we can solve the plateau reaction, and relying on the unsolved mystery between heaven and earth is the strength of Mohism."


    Li Shimin suddenly rejoiced and said, "could it be that the Mohist school has a way to crack it."


    "Yes!" Merton nodded without hesitation. If Tubo had torn his face with him, he and Tubo would not die, so naturally there was no need to stay.

 Chapter 1146

    Li Shimin suddenly said with great pride, "if you can solve the plateau reaction, why do you have peace talks with Tubo? Just a little strength of Tubo is not enough to frighten me."


    There was no altitude sickness. Only the Tubo troops, Li Shimin was afraid that he had destroyed Merton before he returned.


    Merton said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, the Mohists have indeed caused altitude sickness, but they can''t make an antidote with the current technology."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help being disappointed. He frowned and said, "even doctors can''t make it?"


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, the antidote to altitude sickness is not medicine, but oxygen. Do you remember the first secret skill that Weichen showed when he just entered Chang''an City?"


    "The secret skill of living fish." Li Shimin blurted out.


    Merton nodded: "The reason why the caught fish die is because they need oxygen in the air, which is the same for all things in the world. The breathing space and purple fingers in the altitude reaction are the symptoms of human hypoxia, so the antidote to the altitude reaction is also very simple, that is to create oxygen. Unfortunately, although the boy has already offered a reward for thousands of years, there is still no man-made."


    Li Shimin can''t help sighing. Datang has cracked the plateau reaction and knows the antidote. However, he can''t make it. He can only watch the arrogance of Tubo.


    "But don''t worry, your majesty. The Mohists have increased their investment in making oxygen. I believe that one day, that will be the end of Tubo." Merton said firmly on his face.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "what a pity! I can only let Tubo go lightly this time."


    Merton sneered: "no, Tubo''s wholehearted peace talks are afraid of Tang''s gunpowder. After all, the plateau reaction has greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of soldiers, but the power of gunpowder remains unchanged. In this way, Tubo''s natural advantages will be greatly weakened. This is the reason why Tubo is eager to seek peace. On the contrary, we can use Tubo''s mind to weaken Tubo."


    Li Shimin nodded in agreement, looked at Merton and said, "Aiqing has a good plan."


    Merton Lang said, "although Tubo occupies a favorable place, it has three weaknesses."


    "Aiqing, please speak!" Li Shimin listened.


    Merton Lang said, "Tubo''s first weakness is its weak national strength. Since Tubo wants to marry the merchant''s daughter with the gift of a princess, it must be entertained with the specifications of a princess. It must build a large-scale palace in Luoyou. If you don''t want to, you will retreat in spite of difficulties. If you agree, you will take the opportunity to weaken Tubo''s national strength."


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up. This is really a good idea. Whether Tubo agrees or not, it will not hurt Datang.


    Merton then said, "the second weakness of Tubo is food. Weichen once said that it is cold on the Tubo plateau, and only cold resistant highland barley can grow. The yield is very low, not to mention, it is the only staple food of Tubo. Weichen bought a large number of highland barley on the Tubo plateau before, but this is far from enough. Weichen wants his majesty to issue a prohibition on alcohol." (highland barley was written as sorghum by mistake)


    "Prohibition order!" Li Shimin could not help looking at Merton in surprise. To know that the most precious wine in the world is the solution to thousands of worries in the Mohist village, and Merton took the initiative to put forward the prohibition order. The biggest loss is the Mohist school. Merton did not hesitate to spend money for revenge.


    Merton nodded. "Although the Mohist village has a high profit in solving thousands of worries, it is too much food to consume. Even if there is a brick road in recent years, the grain prices in Guanzhong are still rising year after year, and the high Baijiu is the arch criminal."


    Li Shimin nodded. Many people have advised Li Shimin, and the spearhead is directed at the solution of Qianchou in Mojia village. Unexpectedly, Merton took the initiative to solve it himself.


    "Baijiu believes that it is time to reveal the secret skills of wine to the Tibetan population. Now the Tang Dynasty has issued a ban on wine. If your majesty allows you to import highly liquor from other countries, the Tubo, which has just won the secret of brewing, will tread on air. Tubo will surely bite and sell it to Datang in a big way. So, the grain in Tubo will be greatly reduced and the national strength will be weakened again."


    Although Merton''s Secret brewing skills have been leaked to the brewing workshop, they have not been leaked to Tubo, which makes Merton take a different look at Datang''s winery.


    Li Shimin''s heart moved. As an emperor, he naturally knew that food was the foundation. If Tubo used highland barley, the only staple food, to make wine, it would inevitably bury hidden dangers. One of them would be used by the Tang Dynasty.


    "The third weakness of Tubo is ignorance, that is ignorance." Merton finally said.


    "Stupidity? Merton just praised ludongzan and Songzan Ganbu as heroes of the generation. How can he say that Tubo is stupid in the blink of an eye? Isn''t this self contradictory?" Li Shimin wondered.


    Merton explained: "the so-called ignorance means that the whole society of Tubo is in a state of ignorance. Songzan Gambo has just unified the Tubo plateau. Before that, Tubo had no words. Even Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan didn''t know one, let alone ordinary Tubo people."


    Li Shimin suddenly realized what Merton meant.


    "But ignorance and backwardness also represent barbarism and boldness, which is also the reason why Tubo is brave and good at fighting. We can''t control the body of Tubo people, but we can put a yoke on the soul of Tubo people." Merton smiled cunningly.


    Although Li Shimin didn''t know the word "developed limbs and simple mind", he knew that the more savage they were, the more they believed in gods. Especially in the Tibetan Plateau, where they thought they were sheltered by gods, they believed in gods.


    Merton smiled and said, "does your majesty know which religion does not allow killing?"


    "Buddhism!" Li Shimin was suddenly surprised and immediately understood Merton''s plan. Tubo is adjacent to Tianzhu. There is already a certain Buddhist foundation. Coupled with the ignorance and superstition of Tubo people, once Buddhism is popular in Tubo, everyone is unwilling to kill. I''m afraid the brave and good fighting Tubo soldiers will become history.


    Merton solemnly nodded his head and said, "the two martial arts have killed the Buddha many times, which shows the harm of Buddhism. Instead, it''s better to lead the evil water to the West. Even when necessary, you can help the Buddhists, so that the divine power of the Tibetan Plateau is higher than the royal power. How can a group of Tibetan ruled by temples pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Shimin was surprised when Merton told him that three of the birthplaces of the world''s major civilizations had been reduced to theocracy, which made him frightened. However, he did not expect that one day, Datang would apply this strategy to Tubo, but Tubo could not notice it at all.


    Merton''s three strategies can almost be mentioned in his heart. This three pronged approach can greatly reduce the threat of Tubo even if oxygen is not produced, which makes Li Shimin excited.


    "In that case, the task of receiving the Tibetan special envoy is up to you. I hope you will not live up to my expectations." Li Shimin said meaningfully.


    Merton immediately understood and understood that Li Shimin agreed with him to implement the plan to weaken Tubo and avenge himself.

 Chapter 1147

    "Thank you, your majesty! But Baijiu is not allowed to be raised, or it will be easy to put it out."


    "Don''t worry! It''s easy to do, but it''s hard to do another thing." Li Shimin looked at Merton unkindly.


    Merton was surprised and asked cautiously, "what did your majesty say?"


    Li Shimin sneered: "the prohibition you proposed is really good, but I''m used to the solution of thousands of worries in Mojia village. What if I run out of wine in the future? I heard that there are many wine cellars in Mojia village......"


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "don''t worry, your majesty. Store the wine and take it by your majesty. It''s enough for your majesty."


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. With a kind face, she took Merton to the mother and daughter of the eldest grandson queen. Looking at such a harmonious relationship between Weng and her son-in-law, Princess Changle felt that the world was worth it.


    However, Princess Changle was not happy for too long. The next day, the whole court changed immediately.


    "Tell your majesty, the recent sharp rise in grain prices in Guanzhong is of no benefit to the country!" a censor in the Imperial Hall was distressed.


    "Did the big Si Nong find out the reason for the sharp rise in grain prices?" Li Shimin asked Su Lingnong, a big Si Nong who looked aside.


    Su Lingnong reluctantly said: "I inform your majesty that the rain in Datang is bad this year, and there has been a reduction in grain production in many places, which has led to a rise in grain prices."


    Li Shimin pretended: "no! Now that the Tang Dynasty has the method of drought resistance, pesticides, even if the output is reduced, there will be more grain than before. How can there be a sharp rise in grain prices?"


    Fang Xuanling Gongshou Road: "I inform your majesty that although the method of drought resistance is good, it can only take care of a small part of the land, so as not to lose grain. Most of the land still depends on heaven. In addition, nowadays, the popularization of artificial incubation technology and the large increase in the number of chickens, ducks and geese in Datang require food feeding. Less than half of the food in Datang is consumed to feed poultry every year. Therefore, although the food output increases But there are also more places where food needs to be used. In this way, the food price in Datang will increase instead of falling. "


    A civil servant thought and said, "in that case, why not restrict the raising of poultry and stabilize grain prices!"


    "No!" as soon as this proposal came out, it immediately found the opposition of many officials.


    Fang Xuanling said with a bitter smile, "the people have managed to live a good life. If the imperial court restricts the raising of poultry, isn''t it the people''s resentment?"


    After tasting the meat, no one wants to go back to the days when there are few noodles in clear soup. The demand for meat of the people in Datang is almost endless. In addition, fat is popular in Datang, the daily consumption of meat has reached an amazing number, and the consumption of food is naturally an astronomical number.


    The imperial medical order also said: "eating meat is a good medicine for the treatment of night blindness. Now the artificial breeding of poultry is popular in Datang. Eating meat is no longer a luxury for people. Folk night blindness has almost disappeared. Eating meat is indispensable and must not be limited."


    The court officials were in a dilemma. If they really restricted the raising of poultry, I''m afraid they would be immediately abused by the world, let alone eating meat or the treatment of night blindness.


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly, "gentlemen, you only see that raising poultry consumes food, but you don''t know that there is another place that consumes a lot of food every year, but it''s not good for the country."


    "Yu Aiqing, please speak." when Li Shimin heard Yu Zhining go up the road, he immediately took the slope to go down the donkey road.


    Yu Zhining immediately appeared like a cockfight and said: "Your Majesty, to say that consumption of grain, wine can be ranked first, and there are three kilograms of grain in the first place," says the Mohist village, which created a high baijiu. The food consumed by brewery is even more amazing. Since ancient times, the liquor has been delayed by the cup. If his majesty issued a prohibition order, he believed that the price of grain in Tang Dynasty would fall down.


    "Prohibition order!" all officials exclaimed. There are many greedy people in the court, and Li Shimin is an expert in the wine country. If the prohibition order is issued, won''t he be able to drink? Will Li Shimin agree?


    "No, wine has been handed down for thousands of years. How can you ban it?" Cheng Yaojin jumped out first and objected.


    "And now doctors need to disinfect with alcohol. What if they ban brewing?" the imperial medical order retorted.


    Yu Zhining thought for a moment and said, "Weichen believes that doctors can forgive with wine, but they can''t sell it on the world."


    "Minister Wei seconded." many ministers immediately agreed that since it is not possible to restrict the raising of poultry, it is only necessary to restrict another large grain consumer, the wine industry.


    Li Shimin hesitated and said, "well, in that case, I''ll risk the universal condemnation and issue this prohibition. After one month, it is forbidden to make wine with grain in the Tang Dynasty. Once it is found out, it will be severely punished."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Yu Zhining was not happy with his heart. He fought with Mo Zi for many years. At this time, he finally lost his fortune. He knew that the high Baijiu was a huge profit, and the Mohist''s solution of Qian Qian was sold to a bottle of consistent money, which was almost a robbery. This time he finally broke the arm of Mohist village.


    After the breakup of the dynasty, the news of the prohibition soon spread to the people, and there was almost an uproar in Chang''an city.


    "Prohibition!"


    The people of Chang''an were stunned. No one thought that the imperial court suddenly issued a prohibition order.


    Some smart people immediately turned to the wine shop without hesitation and used all the money in their pockets to buy wine.


    Other people followed suit. Soon, the Changan city started a storm of wine grabbing. In a short time, the price of Baijiu liquor in Changan increased and businessmen saw business opportunities.


    "Prohibition!"


    When the people of Zhangjiazhuang heard what they said, it was like a disaster. Zhangjiazhuang has always made a living by making wine. Now the imperial court has issued a prohibition on wine, didn''t it cut off his livelihood?


    For a moment, the villagers of zhangjiacun wailed and were at a loss.


    "What are you crying about? Isn''t there still a month? In this month, you should brew all the wine and make a lot of money first." Zhang Jiacun growled.


    All the villagers came to their senses. After the prohibition order, the price of spirits rose sharply. Now it is a good time to make money, not to lament. They immediately wipe away their tears. All the villagers of Zhangjia, old and young, went to battle and strive to brew more wine in only one month.


    Not only Zhangjia village, almost all wineries made the same decision, including the winemaking workshop in Mojia village, and even spread to all parts of Datang.


    For a while, all wineries consumed grain as much as possible to make wine, but the grain price did not rise but fell, and it fell sharply.


    The effect of the prohibition was immediate, and the food price crisis in Datang was lifted.

 Chapter 1148

    The whole Tang Dynasty was drunk, but Merton didn''t care about the trouble he caused. Instead, he rode to the outside of Chang''an City and stared directly at the West. According to the letter, today is the day of the return of the firearms prison.


    Brick road came and went, but there was still no firearm supervisor, but Merton didn''t worry at all, but continued to wait.


    Slowly, there was a noise from the official road, and then it quickly turned into bursts of exclamations. I saw a long convoy returning from the dust, and even on the carriages, I could clearly see the traces left by swords, bows and crossbows, as well as the black marks left by a lot of gunpowder.


    Combined with these, it is not difficult to guess that this convoy officially became a famous firearms supervision convoy in World War I.


    "See sacrifice!"


    Seeing Merton waiting outside Chang''an City, a crowd of firearm officers and men showed enthusiasm in their eyes. Qi Qi dismounted and bowed down. It was the sacrifice in front of them that led them to create miracles one after another, so that the firearm supervisor had supreme honor.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, we have returned in triumph and finally arrived at Chang''an city." Merton shouted as he looked at the troops following him.


    Suddenly, the firearm supervisor shouted proudly. The firearm supervisor deserved to call it triumph in this war.


    "However, it is not the time for you to return your horses to the mountain. Your majesty has heard of your achievements and is ready to see the firearm supervision drill in Xishan military camp. Now this toast orders you to return to the camp immediately to replenish your firearm and accept your Majesty''s review!" Merton ordered proudly.


    "Your Majesty''s review?" suddenly all the firearm officers and men couldn''t help breathing. I didn''t expect that they could have this honor.


    "Obey the order!"


    The firearm supervisor''s morale was immediately high and said proudly.


    Soon, the firearm supervisor immediately rushed back to the Arsenal and replenished the consumed firearm in full. In an instant, the firearm supervisor was resurrected with blood and was awe inspiring.


    Xishan camp.


    When Li Shimin led his civil and military dignitaries to see the firearm prison, he couldn''t help shrinking his eyes. The firearm prison, which has experienced the baptism of iron and fire, has completed its transformation and become a real elite teacher.


    "Tell your majesty that there are 820 firearms in charge of 1000 officers and soldiers in the whole army. Please review it." Merton said proudly.


    "One thousand people, actually eight hundred and twenty people." the general immediately understood this. His face darkened, and the remaining 180 people were naturally damaged.


    The civil servants soon understood Merton''s meaning. While feeling dejected, they could not help but smack at the combat power of the firearm supervisor. You know, the firearm supervisor''s western expedition to Gaochang did not lose one person. Even if he defeated 5000 Tibetan cavalry, he would only lose 180 people in the end. This combat power could not help but make the civil servants palpitate.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be solemn and dignified in the face of the firearms prison.


    "Start!" Li Shimin ordered.


    "Yes!" Merton bowed in command! With a wave of his hand, the firearm prison array sounded a rapid whistle, which was the sound of the firearm prison''s distress alarm.


    Almost at the same time, the motorcade of the firearm supervisor began to take action. Dozens of carriages were tightly surrounded into an inner array, while more than 100 carriages were tightly surrounded into an outer array. It took only one incense to finish all this.


    "What does this mean?" Li Shimin said strangely.


    Li Shimin and others stood on the review platform and looked at the vehicle array of the firearm supervisor clearly with a telescope. They saw that the inner array of the firearm supervisor was round, while the outer array was like a hedgehog. The opposite tops of the two carriages protruded, one sharp corner after another, uneven, like a prism.


    Merton explained: "this is the most powerful array pattern - the edge array. Once the edge array is formed, no matter where the enemy attacks the edge array, it will expose the enemy to another edge. An enemy will face two or three soldiers'' attacks. Firearms supervisors can form a cross attack. Once the enemy breaks into the front of the array, the pressure will be doubled and the defense will be greatly enhanced."


    Li Shimin was shocked. He had been good at fighting for a long time. Naturally, he knew that once he was attacked by the left and right, no matter how strong the force would be, he would be attacked back and forth on such a large battlefield. It was really extraordinary that the Mohist school formed such a fierce array only with a carriage.


    Many generals looked slightly. Now most of the major cities in the Tang Dynasty are straight city walls. With the protection of the moat, the city walls will be transformed into an array, and the defense will certainly be doubled.


    "What a pity! What a pity! Such a peerless fierce array was born at an untimely time. If it had been born a hundred years earlier, it would be famous. Unfortunately, now in front of gunpowder, it can be broken at once in a powerful castle. The edge array is born at an untimely time!" a civil servant suddenly sighed.


    All the officials sighed in their hearts. The gunpowder smashed the city, not only shocked the western regions, but also shocked the Tang Dynasty. There is no doubt that the number of the city walls is the most. However, now the Tang Dynasty has created the strongest spear, which makes the status of the city wall, the strongest shield of the Tang Dynasty, embarrassing.


    "No! The emergence of gunpowder doesn''t make much sense for the edge array to be used in the city wall, but mohou uses it in a small car array, just like a fortress full of hedgehogs. With less troops, less can win more, but this point, the edge array is of great value.


    "Yes, this array is indeed of great use. The frontier post is built with this array, which greatly increases the defense. With very few hands, the enemy can be helpless and go away." Li Shimin nodded slightly. Datang reopened the Silk Road, and guarding the border post along the silk road is the top priority. With this array, the security of the silk road will be doubled,


    No one thought that the review had not yet begun. The mojiazi surprised them so much that they finally knew that Tubo had lost this time.


    However, the bigger surprise is still behind. A small iron tribulus molitor family is playing wonderfully, especially the iron tribulus scattered on the ground. For the time being, not to mention Li Shimin and generals, even civil servants know it in detail.


    What really stunned them was the iron thistles made of steel cables wrapped around the vehicle array, especially the spikes on the rolls of iron thistles above the vehicle array. The whole vehicle array was like a hedgehog.


    Cheng Yaojin was so itchy that he picked up the horse and went forward to personally test the power of this new type of Tribulus terrestris. However, even if Cheng Yaojin was such a strong general, he was embarrassed to cut through one piece of Tribulus terrestris. The remaining pieces of Tribulus terrestris were still like a roadblock and intact.


    Cheng Yaojin''s face was embarrassed. As long as he was given time, he was naturally confident to cut off these iron thistles, but at this time, he probably didn''t know how many arrows he had.


    "This thing is better than resisting a horse." Cheng Yaojin returned frustrated and immediately praised him. Tribulus terrestris is tough, not easy to destroy, and small in size. It can be rolled into a roll and easy to carry. In addition, it has sharp thorns. It is simply the enemy of cavalry.


    The generals nodded one after another. This was the preparation stage. They already felt that it was worth the trip.

 Chapter 1149

    With Merton''s order, the firearm supervisor officially began the drill. In an instant, the gunpowder bag thrown by the catapult fell on the front position, and there was a constant roar on the school field.


    Many Wen ministers were shocked by the sudden explosion, but the generals didn''t blink. These gunpowder bags exploded loudly, but the firing frequency was too low. Coupled with the protection of armor, they had little lethality, mainly because they had a great deterrent to war horses.


    "Three shot!"


    Then the three-stage shooting of the steel crossbow of the firearm supervisor began. The super long shooting distance made the generals'' eyelids jump. The super long shooting distance and super fast shooting speed made many generals pay a little attention. Such lethality was worthy of the results of the firearm supervisor.


    However, the next dazzling light almost blinded Li Shimin''s eyes. Merton deliberately arranged Xue Rengui to throw a light beam on the review table. The ministers remembered Merton''s coquettish operation on the battlefield in the intelligence. The sun itself was dazzling and shining under the action of a large spotlight, which was a nightmare for archers.


    "Xiao Zhi also." the civil servants rubbed their stinging glasses, but their mouth was hard. However, the next swarm of bees made their eyelids jump. The crossbows and arrows at such a close distance were like chaotic bees coming out of their nest. The continuous attack was a terrible dream for the attacker.


    A crossbow and arrow sounded with a sharp whistling. There were huge crossbows and arrows in front of the position. Not only civil servants, but also military generals were cold. This swarm of bees was the enemy of cavalry.


    After a swarm of bees, it was a grenade attack.


    This time, the firearms supervisor did not give the grenade to the cavalry. There were a lot of grenades in stock, but directly displayed the power of the grenade.


    The attack power of a swarm of bees is less than 100 steps, but the attack of grenades is 30 steps. The two are far and near. They are like a death harvester on the battlefield.


    After a wave of grenade attacks, to the surprise of important civil and military officials, all the officers and soldiers of the firearms supervisor suddenly withdrew from the vehicle array.


    "It''s over?" the crowd was still in their minds, and the fierce explosion stopped.


    Merton shook his head slightly and said, "of course not. The firearm prison will not retreat. Unless he wins, he will fight until the last soldier. Please hide first."


    Li Shimin was stunned. He suddenly remembered the big bang that the firearms supervisor gave the last blow to the Tubo remnant army in the intelligence. He immediately bowed his head and walked down the reading table without hesitation.


    The civil servant''s face changed wildly, and he couldn''t help roaring: "Mexican family, you madman!"


    That''s gunpowder that can blow down even the city wall. The Mexican family even practiced openly here. This is not ignoring the safety of all the ministers.


    The generals laughed loudly. Merton was too angry with them. With this last blow, there would be no regret in the drill.


    "Boom!"


    With the deafening roar, a blast of hot air came, mixed with vehicle shaft wood fragments. Even with their backs to the explosion, people can clearly see the fire and feel the unparalleled power.


    Even if they were far away from the vehicle array, they could feel such great power, not to mention the firearms officers and soldiers and the enemy at the center of the explosion. I''m afraid none of them survived.


    At this time, they understood what Merton said about the firearm prison fighting to the last soldier. Such a determined firearm prison can''t help moving.


    The explosion stopped and the pungent smoke dissipated. Li Shimin and his civil and military dignitaries got up slowly. Turning back, they saw that the firearm supervision position was broken walls, and two hundred carriages were destroyed. In its center, holes were blasted out, and smoke rose from the broken wooden board from time to time.


    "This is like a real battlefield." Cheng Yaojin blurted out.


    This time, no one refuted this sentence, and although this battlefield is very different from the battlefield they have experienced, its cruelty is even worse.


    Looking at the 800 firearms officers and soldiers standing majestically next to the thick smoke, the generals couldn''t help feeling heavy. They thought they had experienced hundreds of battles. Now they gave them 5000 men and horses. I''m afraid they are not sure to defeat the 800 strong men in front of them.


    "A firearm prison is invincible when it is less than a thousand."


    For a moment, people couldn''t help feeling.


    "Good! Sure enough, I''m not disappointed." Li Shimin said with Long Yan''s joy. The firearms supervisor gave him too many surprises. He benefited a lot from both the power of gunpowder and the new combat mode.


    "See you, your majesty!" the 800 firearm officers and men solemnly saluted.


    "You are the heroes of the western expedition to Gaochang. All the soldiers will be promoted to two levels. I have another pension for the dead." Li Shimin said proudly. He finally paid attention to this new army and began to increase investment in firearms supervision.


    Many dignitaries flash in their eyes. Since the officers and soldiers have been promoted two levels, I''m afraid the firearms prison will be expanded next. No one is interested in such a powerful army. However, now the holy family members of the Mohist school are growing. Be careful. All the officials can''t help but keep it in mind.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" the firearm officers and men were in good order.


    "Good!" Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction when he saw the highly disciplined and powerful firearm supervisors.


    Merton stepped up to the firearm supervisor and solemnly said, "I inform your majesty that the firearm supervisor has completed the task of the western expedition and requests to return to the camp! Please also ask your Majesty''s permission."


    "Yes!" Li Shimin waved his big hand and said proudly.


    In an instant, the firearm supervisor walked proudly past the reading table with vigorous steps.


    Many civil and military dignitaries could not help sighing that they were indeed qualified to be proud of their achievements in the western expedition alone.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Firearm prison camp!


    The firearm prison that had just returned to the camp was silent. The nerves of all the soldiers were finally relaxed and fell asleep one by one.


    "Lord sacrifice, the list of all the dead is here." Xue Rengui and Merton didn''t want to sleep. They still have more important things to do.


    Merton looked at the familiar lists in front of him and couldn''t help feeling heavy. This is the list of dead in the firearm prison, a full 180 people.


    "They followed ben to offer wine, but Ben failed to protect them." Merton couldn''t help feeling guilty. For a long time, the firearm prison has been in the wind and water, but he didn''t expect that 180 people were killed under the Tibetan sneak attack, which made Merton''s resentment against Tubo a little more.


    Xue Rengui comforted: "don''t be sad for the wine worship Lord. It''s inevitable that people will die and be injured when marching in the war. Besides, the wine worship Lord himself chased into the 800 mile Han sea to avenge him. I think they must know under the spring and will be smiling."


    Merton shook his head. If the two armies were against each other, even if the firearm prison suffered more losses, he could not blame others. However, Tubo fought against the firearm prison without declaration and ambushed in the Gobi desert, which made Merton unable to cross this barrier in his heart.


    Merton''s face was heavy and his eyes were firm. It took him an hour to write the death notice one by one.


    "These death notices and the ashes of the soldiers should be delivered to their families in person. If there are difficulties at home, you can tell me that Mojia village will try its best to help the widows of the soldiers." Merton solemnly arranged.


    "Yes!" Xue Rengui answered and left.


    After a long time, Merton got up slowly. The firearms supervisor had returned. The Tubo envoy should be coming to Chang''an city soon. It''s time to make a good calculation.


    Just talking about Qinling mausoleum is not enough to calm Merton''s anger. Ludongzan can''t be compared with these 180 soldiers. Let the whole Tubo bury these 180 soldiers.

 Chapter 1150

    "Despicable man, sneak attack Datang."


    "Treacherous, respectful."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Around the convoy of Tibetan envoys, the people of the Tang Dynasty who watched angrily denounced one after another.


    With the arrival of the firearm supervision team, people naturally didn''t forget the experience of the firearm supervision. Now when they see the arrival of the Tibetan envoys, they can''t help being indignant and scolding. Even ordinary people dare to point out and scold the Tibetan prime minister. This is the strength of the Tang Dynasty.


    Lu Dongzan, the leader, was indifferent to this. They had experienced too much abuse from the people and difficulties in the post station along the way. However, Lu Dongzan forbeared.


    Because he knows that he can''t bear to mess with big plans. His trip is to seek peace from the Tang Dynasty. Now everything is just a prelude. The real difficulties are still ahead. In Chang''an City and in the court hall, the crime of Tibetan sneak attack is not so easy to quell.


    "Congratulations to Lu Dong for praising the prime minister. Chang''an city is coming!" the acerbic Honglu Temple official suddenly changed his face.


    When he arrived in Chang''an City, his task was over. Finally, he didn''t have to be pointed out by the people on both sides. Along the way, the officials of Honglu temple had a lot of pressure.


    "Thank you for taking care of me all the way. Ludongzan must remember it." even though he was made difficult by the master of Honglu Temple all the way, ludongzan was still flattering, and a piece of silver slipped into the hands of the officials of Honglu temple.


    The official of Honglu Temple felt the heavy weight, and then showed a satisfied smile and said, "for your sake of being so sensible, I can make an exception to give you a message. It is your old acquaintance who is responsible for receiving the Tibetan envoys."


    "Old acquaintance!" Lu Dongzan couldn''t help but rejoice. If it was an old acquaintance, it would be much more convenient to act. However, seeing the malicious face of Honglu Temple officials, Ludong zanton''s heart sank.


    "Could it be......" Lu Dongzan suddenly felt a bad feeling.


    Before Lu Dongzan finished, the official of Honglu Temple laughed and said, "yes, it''s mohou."


    Ludong zanton''s heart sank. At the beginning of his trip, he must have been made difficult by the Tang Dynasty, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi was responsible for receiving Tibetan envoys. Isn''t it a sheep''s mouth into a tiger''s mouth? With his holiday with mojiazi, how can mojiazi let him go.


    Sure enough, when the Tubo mission arrived in Chang''an City, it was thrown into the post station by Honglu temple. It didn''t even care about food.


    Forced and helpless, the Tubo mission had to buy food on the street by itself. It was repeatedly abused and often had to spend a high price to meet its needs.


    "Da Xiang, we can''t go on like this, or we will be trapped in Chang''an." a Tubo messenger cried.


    Chang''an city is not easy, and the Tubo mission has to spend a high price to buy things in Chang''an city. It can''t last long.


    "Ben Xiang also wanted to meet Tian Khan as soon as possible, but the Mohist son was ill intentioned and didn''t see us at all, and Ben Xiang turned to other officials and was pushed away one after another." Lu Dongzan said with a worried face. In this case, Tubo would be more dangerous every day.


    "The MOH family is so hateful?" the Tibetan envoys denounced one after another.


    "It''s more than hateful. The MOH family has played many times and wants to kill us, and then lead the troops to level Tubo. Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty has the etiquette of fighting between the two countries without cutting envoys. We have survived so far." Lu Dongzan said helplessly.


    These days, he repeatedly lobbied important officials of the Tang Dynasty with a lot of money. Although he was shut down many times, he didn''t get nothing. Someone secretly passed on the recent actions of the Mo family to him.


    "No, we must see his majesty Tian Khan as soon as possible, or Tubo will be in danger." the Deputy envoy of Tubo said urgently.


    "The Mohist School returned with great achievements, and the holy family is booming. No one in the court can resist it. In addition, Tubo has made mistakes first, and no one is willing to mediate." Lu Dongzan can''t help but feel powerless. If he drags on, they are not only dangerous, but also Tubo. At the moment, Tubo is not an opponent of Datang at all. If Datang really forcibly sends troops, Tubo is really in danger of destroying the country.


    The Tubo mission was suddenly depressed and sad.


    Suddenly, a Tubo envoy hurried back and whispered a few words in Ludong zanton''s ear. A trace of joy appeared on Ludong zanton''s face.


    "Ladies and gentlemen, there is good news at last. The Buddhist family is willing to mediate and let the Tubo mission see his majesty Khan." ludongzan sighed with great relief and said to the Tubo mission.


    "Great!" the Tibetan mission couldn''t help but look happy. As long as they could see his majesty Khan, there would be a turn for the better. In addition, the Buddhist family has the virtue of living well and may be able to protect their lives. Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to get out of the Tang Dynasty again if they were allowed to stir up discord by the Mexican family.


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo frowned and said, "for no reason, why should Buddhism help Tubo and say something about the virtue of living well? I''m afraid no one believes it."


    Ludong praised and nodded: "Naturally, Buddhists will not help Tubo for no reason. Master naruo, who was invited by Chang''an Buddhism, was introduced by Tubo. First, there is a feeling of incense, and second, there is no harmony between Buddhists and Mozi. According to Tubo''s information, Mozi is called saving Buddha, which is actually limiting Buddha, causing heavy losses to Buddhists. Among them, the temples in Chang''an city bear the brunt, and naturally are dissatisfied with Mozi."


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo nodded. This is indeed the reason. I''m afraid it''s not enough to end the Buddhist family. After all, the basket poked by Tubo is too big. How can the Buddhist family help Tubo because of this gratitude and resentment.


    Sure enough, Lu Dongzan then said, "in addition, there are two conditions for Buddhism. One is to go to Tianzhu via Tubo and nibra to welcome the Buddhist monk Xuanzang back to the Tang Dynasty."


    "Eminent monk Xuanzang!" all the Tibetan envoys could not help but suddenly heard about this monk who was traveling to the West. He was on the Silk Road of the generation of Gaochang and tuhuoluo. Naturally, he had a long way to go. However, if he took the way of Tubo and nibola, it would greatly shorten the time of return. Now the Buddhist family in the Tang Dynasty is weak. If the eminent monk Xuanzang was welcomed back to the Tang Dynasty, The decline of Buddhism will surely turn.


    "The second condition is that Tubo supports Buddhism to preach on the plateau," Ludong praised.


    "That''s all?" the Tibetan envoys said unexpectedly. What harsh conditions do they think Buddhism will put forward?


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo frowned and said, "Da Xiang, Buddhists are limited to Buddhists in the Tang Dynasty. It can be seen that Buddhists must have their harm. If they are allowed to enter Tubo on a large scale, I''m afraid..."


    Ludongzan shook his head and said, "at present, the most important thing for Tubo is to tide over the difficulties. The Buddhists put forward harsh requirements, and we can only agree."


    Although Lu Dongzan and Mozi are dead enemies, he does not deny the wisdom of Mozi at all. Even Mozi is limited to Buddhism, which shows the harm of Buddhism. However, today''s Tubo has no choice.


    Now the only thing Datang can help Tubo is Buddhism. As for his secret ally, if ludongzan is exposed, I''m afraid he will die faster.


    "Tell the Buddhists that Tubo agrees to all their requirements. As long as they help Tubo today, Tubo will certainly live up to the Buddhists in the future." ludongzan said without hesitation.

 Chapter 1151

    "Benefactor Mo, please don''t think about killing again for the sake of God''s good life, so that the people of the two countries can increase casualties." in the Mo mansion, master Falin, the Buddhist dharma protector, personally visited Merton, and his face of compassion is quite in line with the Buddhist''s compassion of not wanting to kill.


    However, after arriving at the lobby of Mo mansion, he saw that Merton was waiting. Master farIn changed his compassionate face and said with a trace of joy: "Mo Hou''s wonderful plan, Tubo really agreed."


    "Congratulations to the Buddhists. Since then, Buddhists have become Western Buddhists." Merton couldn''t help but show an arc. This time, Tubo fell into a trap, and the rest depends on the Buddhists.


    Master farIn was like in a dream and didn''t dare to believe: "is Tubo really as good as master Mo said?"


    Merton laughed and said: "As you know, the Tibetan Plateau is covered with snow all the year round, and many snow mountains remain unchanged all the year round, which is even worse than Mount Song. It can be seen from the snow line of the mountain alone. Compared with Guanzhong, it is like living in the sky. This is the land closest to heaven in the world. There are only fresh air, clear sky, long white clouds, continuous snow mountains and simple folk customs in the world Pure land, does Master farIn say it''s good?


    When master farIn only heard the narration of Mohist school, he couldn''t help but be fascinated. The land closest to heaven, the unique pure land, and believers are simply a Buddhist country tailored for Buddhism!


    "But I heard that there are temples in Tubo? I''m afraid it''s disgusting for Buddhists to go again." master farIn frowned.


    Merton didn''t know that master farIn was already excited. He just wanted more benefits. At present, he waved his hand and said, "it''s just some heresy. How can we compare with the broad and profound Buddhism of the Tang Dynasty? I have three strategies here, which will surely enable the Buddhism to control Tubo."


    "Please give me some advice." master farIn said happily.


    "First, the reincarnation of the spirit child. When an eminent monk dies, instead of really dying, he is reincarnated. Just look in the direction set by the eminent monk before his death, and you will surely meet a child who conforms to the characteristics of the last words of the eminent monk. This person is the reincarnation spirit child of the eminent monk." Merton said.


    Master Falin''s heart was shocked. If Buddhism had this method long ago, he might have been popular. However, when he saw Merton, he immediately gave up the idea. This method can only be used in places with simple folk customs. If it is used again in the Tang Dynasty, if there are hundreds of schools of thought, I''m afraid he can only be beaten in the face.


    "The second policy is to turn Buddhism into Tubo."


    "Tibetan?" master farIn frowned and puzzled.


    Merton explained: "Tubo is no better than the rich Tianzhu and Datang. It is located on the plateau, with few products and few people. Most people live on nomadism and produce only a small amount of highland barley, which is not enough to support the Buddhist vegetarian diet. If the Buddhist family wants to prosper in Tubo, it must cater to the characteristics of Tubo, not abstain from meat and color."


    Master farIn suddenly changed his face and said, "it''s impossible. If you don''t quit meat and color, can you still be a Buddhist?"


    "Wine and meat go through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in his heart. If he wants to carry forward the Dharma, he must make sacrifices."


    Master farIn immediately looked tangled. There was a big difference between the Buddhism he adhered to all his life.


    Merton continued: "it''s not Mo''s intention to be embarrassed. Breaking the precepts is for the third policy. He repaired the Scriptures. Mo took the time to write several Buddhist scriptures and asked master farIn for guidance."


    Merton then turned and took out some Buddhist scriptures on the desk and handed them to master farIn.


    Master Falin reached out and opened it. He suddenly looked dignified. These Buddhist Sutras were very different from those of the Tang Dynasty, but his philosophy was still profound. When he turned to the last joyful Buddhist sutra, he couldn''t help but change his face. Fortunately, his Buddhist dharma was profound, he restrained the palpitation in his heart, finished reading it, and closed the Sutra for a long time.


    After a long time, master farIn regained his calm, looked at Merton with a shocked face and said, "if someone tells me that you are the reincarnation of the Buddha, I also believe it. It''s a pity that you are so deep-rooted, but you were born in Mohism."


    "Ten thousand dharmas belong to one, and all schools of thought have different dharmas. In the end, they come to the same goal by different paths." Merton played a Zen way that he didn''t understand.


    "All laws are one."


    Master farIn had an epiphany and said with his hands folded: "master Mo Shi is really a great wisdom root. I''m looking at it."


    "If the Buddhists don''t want to, it won''t hurt your Buddhists. When master Xuanzang returns, the affairs of Western Buddhists will be over! If the Buddhists want to, they will understand these Buddhist scriptures. If the Buddhists need it, both Mohist and Tang will help the Buddhists." Merton couldn''t refuse.


    Master Falin was shocked. He was not a silly monk who could only recite scriptures, but a Buddhist dharma protector. He was proficient in the world. Naturally, he understood the meaning of Mohist Zi''s words. In the future, if Buddhism is frustrated in Tubo, he will also have strong help.


    "Let me go back and discuss it."


    Master farIn left the Mo mansion in a hurry and fell into the eyes of those who wanted to, which must be the appearance of the quarrel between master farIn and the Mo family.


    However, they did not know that master Falin had lost his mind, which was related to the future of Buddhism. Master Falin could not be the master alone. He needed to discuss with the eminent Buddhist monks in Chang''an city.


    Jifa temple.


    The eminent monks of Chang''an City gathered again and silently stared at several Buddhist scriptures in front of them, but everyone''s heart was not calm. Now a huge choice was in front of them.


    Master farIn looked at the eminent monks with a dignified face and said, "you guys, the MOH family has put this road in front of us. Please make up your mind about how to choose my Buddhism."


    "Amitabha, our Buddhist family has six clean roots. How can we break the precepts? The poor monk thinks that mojiazi''s plan is quite detailed. Even if we don''t break the precepts, we can establish a Western Buddhist country in Tubo." master Huichang frowned. He was really excited about the Western Buddhist country plan, but he didn''t want to break the precepts.


    Master farIn shook his head and said, "it''s hard! I also asked Marquis Mo, but Marquis Mo thought that if the Buddhism did not break the precepts, the Buddhism would never be integrated into Tubo. How to establish a Western Buddhist country."


    A group of eminent monks nodded slightly. They may be dissatisfied with Mozi''s restrictions on Buddhism, but they can''t help but admit Mozi''s vision. Since Mozi said it was difficult, I''m afraid it''s really impossible.


    "The Buddha still cuts meat and feeds eagles. In order to carry forward the Dharma, we have to give up this smelly skin bag." the abbot of Tongren sighed.


    "However, now that the Tang Dynasty has a hundred schools of thought competing with each other, all schools of thought have made progress, but Buddhism is excluded everywhere. Otherwise, we won''t bother to win back Xuanzang. Western Buddhism can''t miss it. Once the Tang Dynasty conquers Tubo, Buddhism will regret for life." master farIn sighed. Naturally, he knew what Mohist and the imperial court meant to support Buddhism, If the Buddhists do not contribute at the moment, once Tubo is incorporated into the Tang Dynasty, Western Buddhism is nonsense.


    "There are not only hundreds of schools of thought, but also the descendants of hundreds of schools of thought have emerged one after another. Not to mention the Mohist family, even Wu Meiniang, the first disciple of the Mohist family, has become famous. Kong huisuo of the Kong family, the founder of mathematics, Mo Wu, the doctor, and even the declining Legalists have accepted a disciple, who has been rated as a legacy of the sea by the Mohist family. My Buddhism is far behind." Abbot Huichang said anxiously.


    Abbot Tongren looked at the debate machine behind Abbot Huichang, shook his head and said, "master Huichang, why should he grow the ambition of others and destroy his prestige? In my opinion, master Huichang''s expert debate machine is the same age as Mohist, but it has great wisdom and will certainly become the mainstay of Buddhism in the future."


    Suddenly surprised, the debater quickly got rid of the shock of the happy Buddhist scriptures and respectfully said, "little monk is willing to devote himself to Buddhism and preach in Tubo."


    Master Huichang shook his head and said, "debate, you are a rare intelligent disciple of the next generation of Buddhism, but you are far from these people. This time master Xuanzang returns, I would like to recommend you to follow master Xuanzang to learn Buddhism. I hope you will not disappoint the Buddhism."


    The defense machine immediately regretted and said, "thank you for your cultivation, master."


    So far, Chang''an Buddhism has made a decision to fully cooperate with Tubo and Mohist Zi in performing the play. After all, Western Buddhism is related to the future of Buddhism, and there must be no loss, even if there are more sacrifices.

 Chapter 1152

    With the help of Buddhism, Tubo envoys finally got a hard won opportunity and waited until the news of Li Shimin''s summoning.


    "Songzan Ganbu, king of Tubo, said hello to Tian Khan." ludongzan came forward and presented a big gift.


    The Mohist son on one side stared at Lu Dongzan with hatred and said, "tell your majesty that the Tibetan wolf is ambitious. It is Lu Dongzan''s son Lun Qinling who ambushes the firearms prison outside the Yumen pass, and Lu Dongzan is the behind the scenes. I beg your majesty to kill Lu Dongzan and avenge the 180 firearms prison officers and soldiers who died in the war."


    "One hundred and eighty!" Lu Dongzan could not help but be hit hard in his heart. Tubo lost five thousand cavalry, while the firearm supervisor only lost 180. He could imagine how tragic the war was. His son was weak and afraid that Qin Ling was being tracked by Mo Jiazi as injured prey.


    "Lu Dongzan, how do you explain this?" Li Shimin said coldly as his face changed.


    Feeling the strong pressure of Li Shimin, Ludong zanton was sweating. He knew that if one didn''t cope well at the moment, his end would be very miserable.


    "Bang!"


    Lu Dongzan kowtowed hard, and the sound spread all over the Tai Chi hall, which made Li Shimin excited.


    Suddenly, Lu Dongzan''s face was bleeding, but he ignored the way: "the rebellious son secretly stole the amulet and caused great disaster. The foreign minister had nothing to say. If he hadn''t been buried in the desert, the foreign minister would have personally cut off his head to Datang."


    The ministers of the Tang Dynasty were in an uproar. Unexpectedly, Lu Dongzan had admitted it without hesitation.


    Morton said coldly, "ludongzan, don''t think your son is dead. This thing is over. The so-called son owes his father. Tubo ambushed the firearms prison for no reason and plotted Tang gunpowder. It''s an unforgivable crime."


    Many ministers nodded one after another. After the battle of Gaochang, the importance of gunpowder has been infinitely raised, and Tubo has violated the opposition of Mozi.


    "The son owes the father, and the foreign minister has nothing to say. If you can calm down the anger of marquis Mo, please kill the foreign minister''s head." Lu Dongzan is very single and directly leads his neck to be killed.


    Merton was furious and said, "that''s what you said. Since you want to die, I''ll help you."


    Go ahead! Merton came forward and grabbed the weapon of the bodyguard with a knife, so he would kill ludongzan on the spot.


    "Mohou can''t! If the two armies don''t kill envoys during the war, it would be good for us to kill Ludong now." Linghu Dehui, who was suddenly old, hurriedly dissuaded.


    "I have to forgive people. Marquis Mo has killed 5000 Tibetan cavalry, which is revenge. I''m afraid killing Tibetan envoys at this moment will make other countries cold."


    A group of civil servants also came forward to dissuade, and a group of bodyguards came forward to pull, which made Lu Dongzan escape.


    "Stop! What''s the style above the hall, Merton? I think you are spoiled, arrogant and bold." Li Shimin said angrily.


    Ludongzan hurriedly Fu tunnel: "Tian Khan calm down. It''s the foreign minister who angered mohou. It''s all the foreign minister''s fault. Please don''t blame mohou."


    Merton was angry and smiled. He didn''t expect that ludongzan had the ability of future green tea bitches and understood this peerless skill thousands of years in advance.


    Li Shimin, like a straight man, accidentally looked at Lu Dongzan. If he hadn''t made a conclusion, I''m afraid he suddenly had a great appreciation for Lu Dongzan. At present, he cooperated and said, "you are also a smart man. However, Tubo has not committed my Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid no one can protect you if you apologize and admit your mistake."


    Lu Dongzan respectfully said, "Songzan Ganbu knew that the villain had offended Datang. He sent a foreign minister to Datang. It was up to Khan to decide whether to fight or kill. In addition, Songzan Ganbu also offered 5000 Jin of gold and countless treasures to make amends to Datang."


    Lu Dongzan waved his hand. Suddenly, a group of Tibetan envoys presented 5000 Jin of gold and countless treasures. In an instant, the whole Taiji hall was full of jewels. Even the officials of the Tang Dynasty who were used to seeing wealth had to marvel at the great skill of Songzan Ganbu.


    Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said, "Merton, you are responsible for receiving the Tibetan mission. What do you think of this?"


    Merton snorted coldly, "what''s this money? From the point of view of the minister, Tubo dares to offend the Tang Dynasty. You can''t go unpunished. Please order your majesty to lead a large army to attack Tubo."


    Leng hum, deputy envoy of Tubo, said, "mohou is too arrogant. I have hundreds of thousands of warriors in Tubo and the protection of the plateau. The Tang army will be powerless immediately after going to the plateau. It''s too arrogant to break Tubo!"


    This was the strategy set by the Tubo mission. Lu Dongzan tried his best to be soft, while the Tubo Deputy envoy took a tough attitude and showed his strength, so that the Tang Dynasty could avoid rats.


    Merton proudly said, "the Tang army will be powerless when it goes to the plateau, but there is also the strength to ignite gunpowder. In the Gobi desert, 1000 to 5000 firearm supervisors will kill all the Tibetan cavalry. In my opinion, the protection of the plateau is just vulnerable."


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo immediately blushed. Tang Jun''s gunpowder really frightened Tubo and was the only weapon that could threaten Tubo.


    "Even if Tubo is defeated, Tang army will pay enough price." Tubo Deputy envoy said strongly.


    Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lu Dongzan immediately scolded the Deputy envoy of Tubo to shut up and respectfully said to Li Shimin, "the battle between the two armies will certainly ruin the lives of the two countries. Heaven has the virtue of living well. Please calm down the anger of the Khan."


    Seeing a trace of hesitation on Li Shimin''s face, Lu Dongzan couldn''t help but rejoice. However, the voice of Mohist once again sank his heart.


    "Even if you don''t send troops to Tubo, you should punish Tubo. At your Majesty''s command, all surrounding countries should cut off relations with Tubo and prohibit all exchanges, otherwise it will be disrespectful to heaven Khan." Merton said coldly.


    Ludong zanton''s heart sank when he was in trouble. The Tibetan Plateau was short of products, and many things needed to be traded with other countries, especially for the transactions of Datang. Once Datang and the surrounding countries banned all transactions, Tubo would immediately fall into trouble and decline soon.


    All the officials were immediately moved. The Tibetan Plateau occupied a favorable place. It would not be cost-effective for Datang to send troops. It would be great if they could punish Tubo without blood.


    Sure enough, Li Shimin''s eyes brightened when he heard the speech. This is indeed a way to win without fighting, and it can be easily used with the current prestige of Datang.


    "Not enough!"


    With Li Shimin''s faint words, Lu Dongzan''s heart sank.


    Lu Dongzan was so worried that he clenched his teeth and said, "as long as Tian Khan forgives Tubo, Tubo will always be a vassal of Datang and never betray. He will pay tribute to Datang every year in the future."


    The ministers couldn''t help smiling. They immediately knew that Tubo was finally soft this time.


    Li Shimin once again turned his eyes to Merton, and Lu Dongzan was suddenly worried again.


    "In addition, the succession of Tubo Zanpu to the throne in the future requires the consent of the Tang Dynasty." Merton added, and immediately the ministers sighed that the move of the Mohist school was really cruel, so that Tubo Zanpu could not get rid of the influence of the Tang Dynasty in the future.


    However, Lu Dongzan nodded and agreed without hesitation: "as long as Tian Khan forgives Tubo, Tubo will naturally submit to the Tang Dynasty forever."


    For ludongzan, at the moment, we should let the Tubo get through this difficulty. As for whether to abide by it, it depends on whether the Tubo agrees or not.


    However, what ludongzan didn''t expect was that Datang also didn''t regard the so-called vassal relationship as multiple, and both sides had their own ghosts.

 Chapter 1153

    "In addition, there is another happy event in Tubo, hoping to get the permission of Tian Khan." Ludong Zan breathed a sigh of relief, which mentioned another purpose of this trip.


    "Go ahead!" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    "Tubo Zanpu Songzanganbu has always been eager to have the pure love of mohou and Princess Changle. She accidentally saved a Tang woman and fell in love at first sight. However, this Tang woman, Princess Wen, is the daughter of a merchant. She has low self-esteem and thinks she is not worthy of Zanpu. The foreign Minister begged her majesty to give Princess Wen a false name so that the lovers can get married and become a good marriage between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo Lu Dongzan''s love story between Song Zan Ganbu and wen''er was exaggerated with both voice and emotion, and immediately won a lot of favor in the hearts of all the ministers. The king of a country even loved the daughter of the merchant of the Tang Dynasty, which made all the ministers feel a little more fond of Tubo.


    Merton had to lament that Songzan Ganbu''s move took seconds to change the image of Tubo in the hearts of the Tang people.


    Li Shimin shook his head without hesitation and said, "the name of the princess is exempted. Datang has vowed not to marry again."


    "It''s just a false name. It''s not a marriage. Please help your majesty to make this pair of bitter mandarin ducks."


    Merton sneered in his heart. Although there was only one false name, it had a different meaning for Tubo. How could he let Songzan Ganbu succeed? This time, Merton took the initiative to retort before Li Shimin appeared: "Lu Daxiang may not know. There is a famous saying in my Datang Dynasty, that is, everyone is a princess. As long as I am a Datang woman, even if I come from a merchant, I still belong to the princess. Why should I give a name?"


    "Everyone is a princess!" Lu Dongzan was stunned. He had studied the mojiazi deeply. Naturally, he knew that this sentence was written by mojiazi for Princess Changle to build a maternal and child hospital. At the moment, it has become the most perfect excuse for the Tang Dynasty to refuse Tubo.


    Merton went on: "Not only that, even if concubine Wen is only the daughter of a merchant in the Tang Dynasty, Tubo must be treated with the highest etiquette. When Ben Hou married Princess Changle, he built a new house. Songzan ganbugui, as the head of the country, naturally wanted to build a new palace to marry concubine Wen, otherwise how could he deserve the sincere love between the two? Lu Daxiang said that he was right."


    Ludong praised dryly and said, "that''s nature, that''s nature."


    However, in Lu Dongzan''s heart, it''s like eating a fly. It''s shameless for mojiazi. He not only doesn''t want to give Princess Wen the false name of the princess, but also Tubo treats Princess Wen with the etiquette of the princess. It''s called supporting women in the Tang Dynasty. It''s just going to whore Tubo for nothing.


    Merton laughed and said, "in that case, Ben Hou is just inspired and has a grand palace idea. Get a paper and pen."


    At the instigation of Li Shimin, pound soon sent paper and brush. Merton picked up the brush and painted on the paper. Soon, a grand palace jumped onto the paper, which was the shape of the Potala Palace of later generations.


    "Others are trying to change the track of history, but I am the only one trying to put history on the right track." Merton sighed when he wrote.


    "Your Majesty, please look!" pound respectfully handed the drawing paper to Li Shimin.


    When Li Shimin took it over, he couldn''t help breaking his heart for this magnificent palace. He couldn''t help being jealous. Why didn''t Merton give him this drawing.


    On second thought, this move of Mojia Zi is a consumption of Tubo''s national strength. If it is really dedicated to him, I''m afraid he can''t pass the ministerial level at all.


    "It''s really magnificent." the ministers circulated the drawings of the Potala Palace and couldn''t help praising them again and again.


    "Lu Daxiang is still satisfied. Merton''s calligraphy and painting can be worth thousands of gold in the Tang Dynasty. This time, Tubo has made money?" Li Shimin said in a loud voice.


    Lu Dongzan was bitter in his heart. The Mohist school made a big decision for imperial concubine Wen. I''m afraid it was to use this palace to consume Tubo''s national strength!


    However, although he knew that it was the yangmou of the Mohist school, Lu Dongzan had to accept it with a smile.


    "Thank you for your picture."


    Merton snorted coldly, "it''s too early for Lu Daxiang to be happy. Although the sincerity of Tubo moved his majesty, your revenge against me has not been solved."


    "Mohou is trying to kill all the foreign ministers!" Lu Dongzan smiled bitterly, which aroused the pity of many ministers.


    "Killing people is nothing more than nodding. Marquis Mo has killed 5000 Tubo cavalry, and killed Lun Qinling. In front of him, Lu Dongzan is just a poor man who sends black hair to white hair." Yu Zhining said with an unbearable face.


    "Taludongzan is a white haired man who sends black haired people. I don''t know if the 180 families in the Tang Dynasty are not white haired people who send black haired people. Who has pity?" Merton sniffed.


    Yu Zhining immediately concluded that he wanted to say that five thousand families in Tubo had lost their children, but he wisely didn''t say it, otherwise it would certainly cause public anger.


    "The two countries fight without killing envoys, and now Tubo has surrendered. If you commit suicide without authorization, ludongzan and provoke the crime of war without permission, you are duty bound to Merton." Yu Zhining pressed each other with great righteousness.


    But Merton was not afraid and said, "if you want to blame ludongzan for provoking the dispute between Tubo and Tang Dynasty, he is to blame. However, seeing that he is an envoy, I can give him a way to live. It depends on whether he can grasp it."


    "Please give me your advice."


    Ludongzan understands that he has retreated. Tubo has passed this barrier, and whether he can pass depends on this level. "


    Merton stared at Ludong and said, "I heard that Luda Xiang is a famous wise man in Tubo. Today, I will give Luda Xiang three questions. If you can answer them, you will save your life. If you can''t answer them, you will blame your own life."


    "Please give me a question!" ludongzan said simply. Now he has no way back.


    "First, I have a peerless jade named Jiuqu Cong jade. If you pass it through with silk thread, even if you pass through." Merton said.


    The ministers frowned. He also heard about the name of Jiuqu Congyu. It was Li Shimin''s dowry for Merton and Changle''s wedding. Jiuqu Congyu was like its name. The hole in the middle was Jiuqu ileum. How could a soft silk thread pass through these curved holes? However, although Merton''s problem was tricky, it did not exceed Lu Dongzan''s understanding, and they had nothing to say.


    "Second, there are a hundred mares and a hundred foals in the horse circle. They are all mother son relationships. Lu Daxiang only needs to recognize the 100 mother and son." Merton said again.


    All officials were stunned. In people''s eyes, unless they scolded day and night, other horses looked the same, let alone let them recognize the pony, which was an impossible task for them.


    "Third, it''s the simplest. When you and other Tibetan envoys arrived in the Tang Dynasty, Ben Hou was responsible for receiving you, but he deliberately made trouble because of selfishness. This time, Ben Hou compensated 100 sheep and 100 jars of wine to the Tibetan envoys at one time."


    "A hundred sheep, a hundred jars of wine." ludongzan couldn''t help flashing a trace of dignity. He didn''t believe Merton would be so kind. There must be fraud.


    Sure enough, Merton continued, "you''re going to kill the sheep. Within a day, peel, eat all the meat, knead the skin and drink the wine."


    "Ah!" all the officials were in an uproar. Merton finally made a killing move. The Tubo mission only had a hundred people, but it was almost impossible to eat a sheep. What''s more, it was also on the wine. At the moment, the wine of Datang is not the same as that of a thousand cups, but highly strong wine. I''m afraid no one can afford to be drunk with a jar of wine, Where can I finish the task assigned by Merton.

 Chapter 1154

    With the end of the court meeting, the three questions of mojiazi instantly spread all over Chang''an city. Everyone in Chang''an city was eager to prove their wisdom and solve the three problems of mojiazi.


    "Use a soft needle! You can certainly get jade through Jiuqu." a young man said confidently. However, when he saw the shape of Jiuqu, he was speechless immediately.


    "The rest of the white horse''s foal must be a white horse, and so are other horses. What''s indistinguishable?" a rich boy said confidently, touching the horse under his crotch.


    A groom retorted, "a mare and a foal can be distinguished naturally, but it''s a hundred horses. Naturally, they have the same color. How to distinguish them? Besides, what if they are crossed by horses of different colors?"


    The rich boy immediately hid his face and walked away silently.


    An old man snorted coldly, "even if ludongzan''s luck broke out, the Tubo messenger could not eat a sheep or a jar of wine. This time ludongzan was dead."


    Many people in the Tang Dynasty nodded one after another. According to the thinking of normal people, how can a person eat a sheep? I''m afraid it can''t even survive, let alone a jar of liquor. Even the best drinker should get drunk to the ground.


    Not only the people of Chang''an think so, the Tibetan mission in Honglu temple is also depressed. Lu Dongzan has a sad face. His mind keeps flashing three problems of mojiazi, hanging over his head like three life-threatening spells.


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo angrily said, "the Mohist School deceived people too much. He deliberately made some unsolved problems to embarrass the great minister. This is to kill the great minister."


    Ludongzan shook his head and said, "no, there must be a solution, but we haven''t thought of it yet."


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo frowned and said, "the prime minister is too optimistic. How can Mohist Zi leave us alone?"


    Lu Dongzan explained, "the Mojia Zi thinks highly of himself. He knows that once he fails, he will ask him to answer these three questions in public. If he can''t answer them, he will naturally be unable to condemn him. Therefore, in order to kill me, the Mojia Zi must have his own answer."


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo suddenly realized, but then frowned. Mohists have always been famous for their wisdom in the Tang Dynasty. They may not be able to solve the problems that Mohists can solve.


    Lu Dongzan took a deep breath: "from now on, everyone of the Tubo mission should obey Ben Xiang''s command. If Ben Xiang fails to solve these three problems, he will order you to return to Tubo under the leadership of the Deputy envoy."


    A group of Tubo envoys immediately said proudly, "I''d like to be driven by the prime minister. It''s a big deal to fight with them."


    "That''s the agreement between Tubo and Buddhism!" the Deputy envoy of Tubo kept his head and asked with a frown. The Deputy envoy of Tubo and ludongzan are not the same. Originally, he used ludongzan to calm the anger of the Tang Dynasty and replace ludongzan.


    Lu Dongzan said firmly in his eyes, "fulfill the agreement!"


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo silently nodded. Datang was too powerful. Tubo was far from its opponent. With Buddhism as a bridge, it could be alleviated.


    Soon the night passed.


    Lu Dongzan, who had not slept all night, came to the Tai Chi hall as promised. When he saw Lu Dongzan coming, almost all the ministers showed curiosity. They thought hard and did not solve it all night. They wanted to see Lu Dongzan''s ability.


    "Let''s start!" Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    Merton came forward and handed a white and smooth jade to pound. Pound held it in a tray and sent it to ludongzan.


    Lu Dongzan looked down. Through the translucent jade, he could clearly see the winding jade hole in the jade. Lu Dongzan couldn''t help shrinking his eyes. The curved jade hole has nine bends. Even the softest needle can''t pass through the jade hole.


    Other important officials shook their heads one after another. They originally wanted to try to solve the first problem in their own way, but when they saw Jiuqu Congyu, they suddenly realized that what they thought was too simple. The problem of Mohist school was so easy to solve.


    "The Mohist school has no solution to this problem. Why use this means to kill Lu Dongzan? It''s too aggressive!" a censor frowned.


    Immediately, almost all the ministers'' eyes were brushed and fixed on the censor. The Confucian scholars could not help but feel empty. You know, Tubo ambushed the Mexican family, and the Mexican family could not revenge too much, not to mention that the Mexican family had left a glimmer of vitality for Lu Dongzan.


    It''s not just ludongzan who can guess that the Mohist family has an answer, but the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty can''t guess. But all the time, anyone who can compete with the Mohist family''s intelligence will return with hatred. The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty can''t help looking at ludongzan with pity and have no hope at all.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, Lu Dongzan did not hesitate to pick up Jiuqu Cong jade and a thin silk thread, and suddenly lay on the ground looking for it.


    The ministers frowned and looked puzzled at Lu Dongzan''s strange behavior. Lu Dongzan soon found an ant on the ground and carefully tied the ant with silk thread.


    "Ants!" the ministers suddenly understood Lu Dongzan''s next action.


    Sure enough, Lu Dongzan lowered his head and sent the ants into a section of the jade cave of Jiuqu Congyu. At the same time, he kept blowing towards the hole, forcing the ants to crawl in the jade cave.


    Soon, the ant climbed out of the other end of Jiuqu Congyu with the silk thread. Lu Dongzan untied the ant, lifted the silk thread, and passed through the jade hole of Jiuqu Congyu perfectly.


    "It''s so simple!"


    The whole Tai Chi hall was in an uproar. I didn''t expect that Jiuqu Congyu, which baffled countless people, was solved so quickly by Lu Dongzan.


    In an instant, the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help but look at Lu Dongzan with admiration. No matter whether he was clever or really powerful, it was valuable to be able to surpass Mohist Zi.


    "The foreign minister has lived up to his mission, and please your majesty tiankhan''s insight." Lu Dongzan arched his hand and presented the Jiuqu Cong jade wearing silk thread to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin looked at a thin silk thread perfectly passing through Jiuqu Congyu. He couldn''t help looking at Lu Dongzan more. He was worthy of being treated carefully by even Merton. He really had some skills.


    "Merton, have you ever solved this first problem?" Li Shimin turned his head to Merton.


    Merton couldn''t help but move his mouth and disdained to say, "it''s just a child''s game. Even a three-year-old can see it."


    The man Dynasty''s civil and military suddenly turned black. Even the three-year-old child could untie it, but it could defeat countless people. Doesn''t it mean that they are not even as good as the three-year-old child, but when they see such a simple answer, the ministers wanted to refute, but they had nothing to say.


    Li Shimin took a swipe from the corner of his mouth and waved his big hand and said, "let''s start the second question! My horse warden has prepared a mare and a foal. Each pair is a mother child relationship."


    "Tian Khan is so powerful and fair that foreign ministers can trust him. But foreign ministers have never seen these 100 horses. Please give foreign ministers a night to recognize them." Lu Dongzan said respectfully.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "this request can also be justified."


    "Thank you for your wise and wise Tian Khan." ludongzan said gratefully.


    As Lu Dongzan was introduced into the Royal Horse prison by the eunuch, the first question was finally solved. When the news spread from Chang''an city to the people, there was an uproar. No one expected that the result would be so simple.


    "It''s just opportunism. This time, the Tibetan thieves got away with it. The next question is not so lucky." many Chang''an people snorted coldly.

 Chapter 1155

    The next day, in front of the Royal Horse prison,


    The civil and military ministers gathered together, and even the princess and prince came to see the excitement. In the Royal Horse prison, there were two horse circles, one with hundreds of mares and the other with hundreds of ponies.


    Everyone frowned when they saw the noisy ponies. These ponies have different colors. If people look at people, they can vaguely distinguish the mother and son from their appearance, but people look at horses, I''m afraid they are the same.


    "More than that, there are 30 red mares and 40 white mares here, and only 25 red foals and 30 white foals. There are many horses with mixed hair, either red or white, let alone other colors. How to distinguish them." a Wen Chen was careful, At a glance, the number of horses of the same color is different. Naturally, there are no these miscellaneous hairy horses in the imperial palace. It is obvious that Mohist Zi got them from outside the palace, deliberately increasing the difficulty.


    It seems that mojiazi is determined to kill Lu Dongzan. It is very difficult to recognize the horse with the naked eye. Mojiazi even got so many miscellaneous horses, which doubled the difficulty of this problem.


    "Unless it is ludongzan''s bad luck, it will be difficult to escape this disaster." many people frowned. If they change to ludongzan''s position, I''m afraid they can only give up.


    Other officials also shook their heads. They were all people with great wisdom. Rao thought hard, but they were still helpless in the end.


    "Let''s go!"


    Li Shimin Lang said that he also didn''t find a way to solve it. He asked Merton, but he didn''t say it. He was looking forward to the answer. Instead, he wanted to see whether ludongzan could continue his magic.


    Under the gaze of the crowd, Lu Dongzan took a deep breath: "please send a hundred people from the Royal Horse supervisor to lead the mare in turn, and then open the horse ring."


    The eunuch of the Royal Horse warden acted according to his words and waved his hand. Hundreds of bodyguards lined up with the mare in turn. Then he opened the foal''s horse circle. He saw those foals of various colors rush up and run to the mare. What''s amazing is that every mare snuggled up to a foal.


    Lu Dongzan said proudly, "tell Tian Khan that every mare and pony around him are mother child relations."


    "Ah! How could it be?" suddenly everyone was surprised.


    However, the horse shepherd of the Royal Horse warden nodded slowly and confirmed that what ludongzan said was correct. The people were in an uproar. They looked at ludongzan with great puzzlement and didn''t understand what means ludongzan used.


    "The foal is hungry!" suddenly Li Zhi pointed to the foal feeding the mare and exclaimed.


    They suddenly realized that Lu Dongzan didn''t mean to recognize the foal one night in advance, but to make the foal hungry all night. Once the hungry foal opened the circle. Naturally, it is the nature of mother and son to rush to their mother at the first time.


    "Ludongzan is really extraordinary. He even broke the problems of Mohism." for a moment, the ministers looked at ludongzan with a bit more inexplicable vigilance.


    It can be said that these problems have baffled the officials who think they are the elite of the Tang Dynasty, but they have been solved one after another in Lu Dongzan''s hands. This intelligence alone is no less than that of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Such talents should devote themselves to working for Tubo, which will certainly cause many obstacles to the Tang Dynasty in the future.


    Lu Dongzan could not help sighing. He knew that he had attracted the attention of Datang at the moment, but in order to survive, he had no choice but to go all out, because he knew that if he made a little mistake, the Mexican family would never miss the opportunity to kill him.


    "Merton, are you satisfied with Lu Dongzan''s answer?" Li Shimin turned his head and asked Merton.


    Merton sneered: "it''s a talent for you to think of the love between mother and son to solve this problem. However, you only see the love between mother and son of horses, but ignore the love between mother and son of people. Because of you, it''s sad and pathetic for five thousand Tibetan mothers to lose their beloved son."


    Ludong zanton felt a pain in his heart. The woman who lost the love between mother and son, including his wife, washed her face with tears every day and became increasingly haggard when it was determined that the Mohist son had returned and that the Qin mausoleum had been buried in the yellow sand.


    My son has died. If I die in Datang again, not only will my wife be sad, I''m afraid the whole family will decline. Therefore, he must go back alive. There is the last level, and he can escape from the hands of Mohist.


    At that moment, Lu Dongzan took a deep breath: "I inform Tian Khan that the foreign minister has not slept all night in order to solve the second problem. Please allow Tian Khan to let the foreign minister rest all night and solve the third problem tomorrow."


    Although he knew that this was Lu Dongzan''s delaying strategy, he used it openly and aboveboard. Li Shimin had to nod his head and say, "but!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Wonderful!"


    "Wonderful!"


    When the answer to the second question spread to the people, the whole city of Chang''an was suddenly boiling. No one thought that Lu Dongzan could create another miracle and break the second question. Since the rise of the foreign forces of mojiazi, few people have been able to make a second move with mojiazi.


    Now, Lu Dongzan''s two moves to connect with Mo Jiazi are enough to impress everyone. When they look at Lu Dongzan again, they don''t have more inexplicable doubts. Will such a wise man be confused and let his son steal the talisman to ambush Mo Jiazi? I''m afraid what Mo Jiazi said is true. This talent is the real behind the ambush of the firearms supervisor.


    "However, even if Lu Dongzan is wise, he can''t escape this disaster. A person can''t eat a sheep in a day, let alone a jar of strong wine. This time, Lu Dongzan is either dead or drunk."


    A group of Chang''an hundred people swore that the last level was the stomach. According to common sense, a normal sheep can produce at least 40 kilograms of pure meat even if it throws away its internal organs, fur and bones. It is impossible for a person to eat 40 kilograms of meat a day.


    "Ludongzan is smart, but he can''t escape the hands of Mohist. This time, Mohist Zi not only let ludongzan prove himself to be the behind the ambush of firearm prison, but also killed him with the last question, which is very gratifying." a group of people in Chang''an city finally had an insight into the behind the scenes confrontation of this intellectual war, and couldn''t help shouting wonderful.


    The third day finally came when thousands of people were watching.


    When ludongzan came out of the post station with 100 Tibetan messengers, he immediately attracted everyone''s attention, and the people along the way looked at the Tibetan mission with hostile eyes.


    "Behind the scenes! Kill for your life!"


    "Give me 180 lives!"


    Chang''an people shouted angrily, and the people''s anger that had gradually subsided reappeared again.


    Lu Dongzan''s face was embarrassed. Although he broke two questions in a row, there was only the last step to success, because he found himself in the conspiracy of Mohist Zi. The more he solved the question, the more it proved that he was the murderer behind the ambush of the firearm supervisor.


    However, he couldn''t stop. He had to go on, otherwise the Mexican family would kill him without hesitation.

 Chapter 1156

    The location of the third question is the back kitchen of the imperial dining room. This is the place where the imperial dining room slaughters cattle and sheep. The cost of the whole palace is very large. There are many livestock slaughtered every day.


    When Lu Dongzan led the Tibetan mission to the kitchen in the imperial dining room, he couldn''t help shrinking his eyes when he saw 100 sheep and a jar of wine already prepared.


    The one hundred sheep are all adult sheep, even if the ink family did not deliberately make trouble, the weight of an adult sheep is also quite a lot, let alone a altar of three jin of Baijiu. If it was highland barley wine from the Tibetan Plateau, the three Jin wine jar would no longer be under the words of the Tibetan warriors. However, Lu Dongzan understood that these three Jin wines were all spirits, and they were all rich in Mojia village to solve thousands of worries. In addition, it is said that the prohibition of alcohol has been issued in the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid the value of these wines will be higher. In order to kill himself, Mojia Zi did not hesitate to take them out.


    "Your Majesty has an intention to start solving the problem," said pound Lang.


    This time, the problem-solving time is one day. Li Shimin naturally doesn''t have so much time. He won''t go to dirty places such as the back kitchen of the imperial dining room. Not only Li Shimin, but also the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and even Merton.


    Ludong zanton''s face was solemn and his big hand waved. Hundreds of Tibetan envoys slaughtered thousands of sheep one after another. The back kitchen of the imperial dining room was immediately bloody.


    Everyone, including ludongzan, is familiar with this. Killing sheep and cattle is a necessary skill for every Tubo warrior. After killing the sheep, ludongzan did not stop, but directly cut off four big sheep legs, threw them into the prepared pot and began to cook mutton.


    "Eat meat!"


    Soon the mutton was cooked. Lu Dongzan shouted. He took the lead in picking up a big leg of mutton and ate it. Other Tubo envoys followed suit and couldn''t wait to eat the mutton. Soon, the two legs of mutton had been eaten.


    "Drink!" ludongzan shouted again,


    Immediately, the wine jar opened, and suddenly a strong smell of wine came to the nostrils. Tubo was cold. A group of Tubo envoys, who were also good wine people, drank one after another.


    Soon, ludongzan and a group of Tubo envoys had destroyed four big sheep legs and a lot of wine. Pound and chef Yang in the imperial dining room were stunned.


    "Tubo people can eat so much that they eat too much at a meal!" pound said stunned. It was only a short time. Each Tubo messenger ate four big sheep legs.


    Chef Yang looked carefully and shook his head and said, "no, I''m afraid these Tibetan envoys haven''t eaten for three days."


    Pound suddenly realized that this was ludongzan''s method to solve the problem, but what he didn''t expect was that ludongzan had such a deep mind that he had thought of the method three days ago. He was hungry for three days to solve the problem today.


    Other Tubo messengers were pretty good. They were just hungry, but ludongzan was hungry for three days, but he still solved the other two problems of Merton. This is the talent and perseverance that people admire.


    "So Tubo won again?" pound frowned.


    Chef Yang shook his head and said, "no, a person has a limit to his stomach. Even if he is hungry for three days, he can''t eat three days at once."


    "Isn''t there another day?" asked pound.


    "You can''t finish eating a sheep in a day. You know, it''s all meat and difficult to digest. Lu Dongzan''s method is indeed the best, but it''s also very difficult to finish eating a sheep, let alone a jar of liquor. If you get drunk, I''m afraid you''ll spit it out.


    Pound nodded and looked at the Tibetan emissary again. He was a little more confused. He saw that some Tibetan emissaries had eaten four mutton legs, but they still seemed hungry and wanted to continue cooking mutton.


    Chef Yang explained: "once some people are very hungry, although they eat a lot of things, they still feel hungry. If they eat all the time, they will even die."


    "No more!"


    Sure enough, when chef Yang finished, he only heard ludongzan suddenly drink. Under ludongzan''s prestige, a group of Tibetan envoys put down the mutton in their hands, but stared at the mutton reluctantly.


    "From now on, every half an hour, eat meat and drink wine. Don''t eat too much and get drunk. In the rest of the time, rub the skin hard and consume physical strength as much as possible." Lu Dongzan said solemnly.


    "Yes!"


    All the Tibetan messengers shouted in unison.


    Soon, a group of Tibetan envoys immediately listened to the order and kept themselves busy. Even ludongzan was no exception. These skin kneading work was a necessary skill for everyone in Tubo. Although ludongzan was expensive, it was also easy to do.


    Every Tubo emissary exhausted his physical strength as much as possible until he was exhausted.


    "The Tubo emissary wants to digest the mutton in his stomach as much as possible so that they can eat more mutton." Chef Yang couldn''t help but applaud the case when he saw Lu Dongzan''s intention.


    Pound couldn''t help but take a deep look at Lu Dongzan, and his heart couldn''t help but be dignified. This man can break the problems of Mohism and decide that it is not something in the pool.


    In the Lizheng palace, Li Shimin chatted with empress changsun. Merton and Princess Changle were accompanied. Pound hurried to report.


    "What, ludongzan broke the third problem again." Li Shimin exclaimed. He was hungry for three days, ate meat and drink every half hour, exhausted his energy and increased digestion. It can be said that ludongzan took every step right. What''s more valuable is that ludongzan thought of the method to solve the problem three days ago.


    Pound looked at Merton and said, "no, chef Yang said that ludongzan had broken the third problem and didn''t break the problem."


    Empress Chang sun did not understand, "why is this?"


    Merton explained: "because even if ludongzan takes the right three steps, there is a limit to the capacity of people''s stomach. Even if it is difficult to digest this sheep, ludongzan may survive, but the 100 Tibetan envoys may lose more than half. This is what Weichen said."


    "In other words, you knew from the beginning that ludongzan could solve the problem and deliberately set aside this thread of vitality?" Princess Changle stammered. She didn''t expect that Merton really planned to let ludongzan go.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, although ludongzan is behind the ambush of the firearms warden, the firearms warden has killed 5000 Tubo cavalry, including ludongzan''s son Lun Qinling. Most of the revenge has been avenged. Besides, ludongzan is an envoy after all. It is not only common in the Tang Dynasty, but also the practice of all countries. It is not easy to make an exception, let alone the west of Buddhism OK, and the important figures in Datang''s next plan, how can they die easily. "


    Li Shimin can''t help but sigh that ludongzan is indeed a top wise man, and Merton takes every step of ludongzan into account. The confrontation between the two top wise men is wonderful.

 Chapter 1157

    Eating meat and drinking wine is the most enjoyable moment in one''s life. However, eating meat and drinking wine is a very painful thing for Tubo envoys.


    Even though his stomach is full, he still keeps stuffing food into his stomach. This feeling is very painful. Many Tibetan envoys did not expect that they would be so disgusted with eating meat one day.


    What is even more unacceptable to Tubo messengers is to solve thousands of worries. This kind of good wine that they could only look up to in the past, but now it keeps stimulating their stomach. In addition, the stomach is full of mutton, which is even more unbearable.


    The only thing they can do is to keep rubbing the sheep''s skin, find things to do as much as possible, divert their attention and consume their physical strength.


    Drink wine and eat meat every half an hour. Although the whole Tubo mission was difficult, it was still going on in an orderly way. Finally, it lasted until the afternoon and the evening. Naturally, they could not be left in the palace at night. Seeing that the sun was about to set, the time was about to end.


    Looking at a lot of mutton in front of everyone, Lu Dongzan couldn''t help looking embarrassed. He underestimated the problem of Mohism. Even if he had done his best and didn''t go wrong at every step, it was still an almost impossible task to eat a sheep and drink a jar of wine.


    "Mo Hou!"


    Suddenly, when Lu Dongzan heard chef Yang''s enthusiastic voice, he couldn''t help looking up. He saw that the Mexican family appeared in the imperial dining room again.


    Lu Dongzan said in a cold voice, "did Marquis Mo come to take the last trip for Lu? Congratulations to Marquis Mo for his great revenge."


    Merton laughed and said, "Lu Daxiang is a famous wise man. Since he has reached the present situation, he has naturally found the life left by mo."


    "The way to live?" a group of Tibetan envoys were shocked. They obviously couldn''t eat any more and couldn''t solve the problem. How could there be a glimmer of vitality.


    Ludongzan was silent and speechless.


    When Morton saw this, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "I didn''t expect that Tang ludongzan wanted to be a bitch and set up a chastity card. He clearly wanted to live, but he didn''t want to bear a bad reputation. In that case, I''ll tell you where this thread of vitality is."


    Suddenly, a group of Tibetan envoys showed their hopeful eyes. Lu Dongzan opened his mouth and wanted to stop it, but he didn''t say it at last.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing: "this line of life is that you have to sacrifice your life to eat meat and drink, even if you die, and the last line of life is naturally left to ludongzan. Ludongzan, do you want to sacrifice 99 people to save you, or sacrifice you to save the other 99 messengers."


    "Ah!"


    A group of Tubo envoys exclaimed one after another and quickly turned their eyes to ludongzan, the leader.


    Lu Dongzan was embarrassed and took a deep breath: "if I could take care of Tubo, your family wife and children, I would take care of it."


    If Merton didn''t show up, he would naturally perform and let these Tibetan envoys willingly die for him, and Merton suddenly opened his fig leaf.


    All the Tubo messengers smiled miserably and immediately understood Lu Dongzan''s choice.


    "Da Xiang, Xiao is deeply loved by Da Xiang and can''t repay him. Today''s life is returned to Da Xiang." the next Pro Wei of Lu Dongzan smiled miserably, picked up the mutton in front of him, chewed and swallowed it hard until he swallowed the last mouthful of meat with pain on his face, and finally drank the remaining half a kilogram of wine with his head up. Unexpectedly, he really ate a sheep and drank a jar of wine in one day.


    Other Tibetan envoys smiled miserably and resolutely picked up the wine and meat in front of them to follow suit. Soon, one sheep was eaten and one jar of wine was drunk. More loyal people to ludongzan ate the wine and meat for ludongzan.


    When the sun finally set, only ludongzan was able to stand up, and the rest were lying on the ground with their stomachs in their arms.


    "I don''t know this question. Lu Mou can solve it." Lu Dongzan patted the 100 tanned superior sheepskins stacked in front of him, and said coldly.


    Merton nodded and said, "that''s natural. When you go to the Tang Dynasty this time, Mo will no longer be difficult for you."


    Lu Dongzan escaped the disaster, but he didn''t feel lucky. He looked sadly at a group of Tibetan envoys. 180 soldiers died in the firearm prison. He killed 5000 people before. He even killed nearly 100 people by his hand.


    "Farewell!"


    Ludongzan arched his hands and directly abandoned the painful Tubo messenger and turned away.


    Merton looked at the painful Tibetan messengers all over the ground, sighed in his heart, waved his big hand and said, "come on, carry these Tibetan messengers to the Mexican hospital. I think the Mexican hospital will like these patients very much. As for how many can survive, it depends on their luck."


    Although the people of the Tang Dynasty are open-minded, they are still quite worried about opening the belly, so that the Mexican hospital clearly has the relevant theory, but there is no chance to experiment. Now with these Tibetan envoys, I''m afraid the surgery of the Mexican hospital must have made a qualitative leap.


    Of course, it is also the fate of these doomed Tubo envoys. If it was before, these people either died or died drunk, there is no possibility of survival.


    "Lu Dongzan broke three questions in a row!"


    When night fell, the news of Lu Dongzan breaking three questions had spread all over Chang''an city. Everyone couldn''t help but be in an uproar. No one thought that Lu Dongzan really broke the problem of Mohism.


    "The MOH family lost?" some Chang''an people said in disbelief.


    "Defeated?" someone sneered, "that''s the chance of life reserved by the Mozi family for ludongzan. Ludongzan just found it. Do you know where ludongzan came from?"


    "Sacrifice nearly a hundred people to live for only one." the people of Chang''an City were in an uproar. When they heard that Lu Dongzan sacrificed a hundred people for his own life, their perception of him immediately plummeted.


    "Isn''t mojiazi also the murderer of these hundred people?" someone whispered in the crowd.


    "Fart, Mojia Zi is for revenge. The only means he uses is against Lu Dongzan, and this hundred people take the initiative to die for Lu Dongzan. What does it have to do with Mojia Zi, not to mention that Mojia Zi has ordered Mo hospital to give full rescue, and Dr. Sun Shenyi and Dr. Mo Wu are all present. In this way, mohou and Lu Dongzan are not superior to each other." A well-informed Chang''an people angrily denounced.


    Everyone was silent. Ludongzan did not hesitate to sacrifice 100 envoys for his own survival. In the face of the dying 100 Tubo envoys, even in a hostile relationship, the mojiazi still ordered full rescue. It has to be said that the mojiazi had too many advantages over ludongzan in terms of intelligence and character.

 Chapter 1158

    Mo hospital!


    Almost all the doctors are eager to try. All the doctors who don''t go to work come together. In Datang, if they use a knife on the body of ordinary people, they will be criticized, and they will be grabbed by those Confucian people. However, if they are Tubo people, there is no such taboo. In addition, there is no better choice for these Tubo envoys. They have to treat dead horses as living horses.


    "Induce vomiting first." Sun Simiao was the most experienced and ordered directly.


    "Yes!"


    A group of doctors were ordered to help these Tubo messengers induce vomiting. However, these Tubo messengers ate too much, and their stomach had lost the function of contraction, and it was easy to choke. Only a few lucky children successfully induced vomiting, and the rest of the Tubo messengers still cried out with pain in their stomach.


    "Let''s have an operation!" Sun Simiao sighed. Although surgery is the only way, it is risky. How many of these people can survive is not certain.


    Suddenly, a group of doctors stared at the Tibetan emissaries with bright eyes. These Tibetan emissaries drank three kilograms of liquor and were all drunk. They were the best surgical objects, not to mention the need to open the Tibetan emissary, take out the food in the stomach, and then sew it up. This was an unprecedented operation.


    Mo Wu nodded, turned his head and looked at a group of fanatical doctors and said, "you have experimented on animals many times. If you can cure people this time, the doctor will go further. This is an opportunity for my doctor to prosper. You can be ready."


    Although Sun Simiao''s medical skills are superb, in terms of surgery, when the number of ink five is the highest, the main knife of this vast operation is ink five.


    The doctors nodded solemnly and looked solemn.


    Soon, Tubo messengers were pushed into the operating room, opened their stomachs, took out food, and then sutured. Fortunately, Mo hospital was the largest hospital in Datang. Doctors gathered together. It was not until dawn that nearly 100 operations could be completed.


    Mo Wu sewed up the chest wound of the last Tubo messenger and threw away the scalpel. He was relieved.


    Out of the operating room, Mo Wu saw that even if he didn''t sleep all night, the doctors were still in high spirits and couldn''t help laughing. From then on, the medical skills of Mo hospital will reach a new level.


    Mo Wu said: "This operation is very successful, but there are still many risks. The biggest risk is drunkenness. Three kilograms of liquor is enough to intoxicate the dead. If it is normal, doctors still have the method to relieve the wine, but now the Tubo messenger has just had an operation on his stomach and can''t take medicine. Fortunately, he took the three kilograms of liquor many times in a day. He cleaned his stomach just before the operation. We have done our best, and the rest is left I''ll see if the Tubo messenger is sober. "


    "Of course, there will also be the risk of stomach bleeding, wound infection, conflict between liquor and Qinglong real medicine. Whether they can survive depends on the luck of these Tibetan envoys."


    A group of doctors solemnly nodded. How many Tibetan envoys could survive is an important basis for testing the medical level of the Tang Dynasty.


    "But the Tubo ambushed our Datang soldiers. These Tubo envoys are the enemies of Datang. Now we have saved them. Will they be heckled?" a doctor worried.


    Other doctors frowned. Now the people in Chang''an city are angry. I''m afraid this may really happen.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said solemnly: "We are doctors, and our lifelong ideal is to serve the world. When we practice medicine, we first consider the health and happiness of patients, respect everyone''s life, and will not treat patients differently because of their age, gender, disability, belief, race, nationality, social status or any other factors. Doctors will treat them equally and use the highest medical skills of doctors For treatment.


    As a doctor, we will keep secrets for patients, even if the patient has died; as a doctor, we should share our medical skills unreservedly, benefit patients and promote the progress of doctors: as a doctor, we should pay attention to our health and medical skills to provide the highest standard of medical treatment.


    Doctors will not harm others with their own medical skills. Even if they are threatened, they will stick to their medical ethics. "


    These words were personally told by Merton when Mo Wu decided to follow Hua Yuan''s medical school. Because of the long time, he can''t remember the specific original words. This is his perception combined with his own medical concept.


    When Mo Wu finished, all the doctors were crazy. Mo Wu''s words hit their heart. Even Sun Simiao was surging. He hung a pot to help the world all his life. Whether dignitaries or poor villagers, he would save people one by one. He saved countless people all his life and never hurt anyone with medical skills. That''s why he has today''s reputation.


    "I''m an old man and should have retired, but seeing that the doctors are in the ascendant, I barely supported the doctors for several years. Fortunately, God is lucky that the doctors have successors. It seems that it''s time to retire." Sun Simiao said with emotion.


    "Doctor sun?" a group of doctors were shocked when they heard that Sun Simiao wanted to retire. To know why the Mexican hospital has today''s glory, Sun Simiao can be said to have made great contributions. Both Sun Simiao''s medical skills and reputation have made the Mexican hospital like the sun at the height of the sun. Even many doctors are willing to join the Mexican hospital because they want to learn his medical skills.


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said: "Today''s Mo hospital is no longer a famous doctor, but depends on every specialist doctor to practice medicine. You are no inferior to me in your own department, not to mention Mo Wu''s excellent medical skills, which have cured night blindness and schistosomiasis. Now he has improved his surgical operations. Even if I leave, Mo Wu will lead the doctors to continue to move forward."


    What Sun Simiao said is true. His greatest achievement in his life is to integrate medicine. During his time in Mexico hospital, he gave his own medical skills. Although doctors in various disciplines are not as good as Sun Simiao in terms of medical skills as a whole, they are not inferior in terms of professional fields. In particular, Zhang in the women''s and children''s hospital is afraid to have surpassed Sun Simiao in pediatrics.


    "How can Mo Wu get such absurd praise from doctor sun?" Mo Wu was ashamed.


    Sun Simiao looked at Mo Wu with a happy face and said, "how can you? Not to mention your previous achievements, today''s operation and oath are enough."


    A group of doctors nodded. Although Mo Wu was young, his achievements and medical skills had been recognized, not to mention that Mo Wu himself was also awarded a title, which was the first among doctors. Mo Wu could convince the public when he took over Mo hospital.


    "Does doctor sun have the heart to leave the apricot forest?" Mo Wu tried to stay.


    Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "of course not. Although I retired, I will try my best to revise the thousand gold prescription. This medical book has been delayed for too long."


    Sun Simiao''s thousand gold prescriptions and Li Jing''s war books have almost the same experience. Whenever they think they have reached perfection, there will always be greater surprises for them.


    "Congratulations to doctor sun." Mo Wu said respectfully when he saw that Sun Simiao had decided to go.


    The burden on Sun Simiao''s shoulder was gone, and he immediately relaxed with one heart. Lang said, "in the future, doctors must read Mo Wu''s oath and swear. I don''t know what you think?"


    "Great goodness!" a group of doctors bowed.


    "You, our medical family is about to prosper. Please encourage each other."


    Sun Simiao looked up at the sky and laughed. Without anything, he walked directly outside the ink hospital, free and easy.

 Chapter 1159

    "What, doctor sun has retired!" when the news of Sun Simiao''s retirement spread, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.


    You should know that Sun Simiao is the spiritual symbol of doctors. After Sun Simiao came to Chang''an City, he joined the Mexican hospital. The Mexican hospital suddenly became the first choice for the people in Chang''an and even the people all over the world to see a doctor. He also founded the women''s medical school and the medical school in qujiangfang. It is a great contribution for doctors to greatly prosper Sun Simiao.


    However, I didn''t expect that Sun Simiao would retreat in a hurry at the moment when the doctors were about to prosper.


    "The messenger who opened his belly and saved Tubo."


    "Mo Wu oath!"


    When they learned the reason for Sun Simiao''s retirement, there was another shock. No one thought that the doctor''s medical skills had reached such a level. Only then did they understand the reason for Sun Simiao''s brave retreat.


    Mo Wu''s oath makes people respect doctors. Originally, many people in the Tang Dynasty were dissatisfied with doctors'' treatment of Tubo envoys. However, when they heard Mo Wu''s oath, they were relieved. Maybe such a doctor is convincing.


    "Doctors have successors!" master farIn sighed when he heard the news of Sun Simiao''s brave retreat. He didn''t want to go far to Tubo, but there was no rising star of Buddhism. Master Xuanzang, who has a good reputation, didn''t return from Tianzhu. He was the only one who provoked the burden of Buddhism. However, he saw the great prosperity of doctors, This made him more determined to promote Buddhism.


    In the palace, Li Shimin was talking with empress Chang sun about Merton''s appointment with Lu Dongzan. Suddenly pound rushed and said, "tell your majesty, doctor sun retired."


    "Ah! What about the Queen''s illness?" Li Shimin was surprised and suddenly got up.


    Empress Chang sun waved her hand and said, "don''t worry, the emperor. My concubine is much better. Besides, doctor sun is old and has a desire to retire. If Merton hadn''t made an idea to keep doctor sun, doctor sun would have wandered around. My concubine has delayed doctor sun for many years."


    Pound shook his head and said, "don''t worry about the queen. Although doctor Sun left this time, his lifelong medical skills stayed in the ink hospital. There is an ink hospital. There is no need to worry about the Queen''s condition."


    In recent years, the name of the Mexican hospital is too famous. Li Shimin was a little relieved. He suddenly asked, "doctor sun suddenly retired. Who will take over the Mexican hospital?"


    Pound replied, "doctor Mo Wu opened his belly and saved nearly 100 Tibetan envoys, and made a doctor''s oath in public. Doctor sun was moved and decided to retire and let doctor Mo Wu take over the Mo hospital."


    "Doctor Mo Wu has superb medical skills and noble medical ethics. No wonder doctor sun can go at ease." empress Chang sun couldn''t help nodding.


    When pound repeated the oath made by Mo Wu, empress Chang sun was also deeply moved by Mo Wu''s medical ethics.


    When Li Shimin heard that the medical skills of doctors had reached such a level, he was a little relieved. As pound said, since Mohist hospital started to treat patients in different departments, there may not be a famous doctor like Sun Simiao, but every doctor is no inferior to Sun Simiao in his own field.


    The next day, Sun Simiao stepped out of the mansion. Now Sun Simiao''s wish has been fulfilled. In addition, he has traveled wild cranes all his life. Now he is only taking some medical books and a boy to travel.


    "Doctor sun!"


    "Doctor sun!"


    As soon as Sun Simiao went out, he saw that many people along the way had already been waiting there, calling with emotion.


    During Sun Simiao''s years in Chang''an City, it can be said that there are countless doctors. How many people have suffered from illness and recovered in Sun Simiao''s hands, and how many people who must die have come back to life because of Sun Simiao. It can be said that Sun Simiao has healed half of the families in Chang''an city.


    "Doctor sun, please get on the bus," said a Mohist boy respectfully, pulling an up-to-date four-wheel carriage.


    Looking at the brand-new Mohist four-wheel carriage, Sun Simiao understood that it must be the arrangement of Mohist Zi. He didn''t refuse at the moment, and stepped onto the carriage.


    "Drive!" with a soft drink from the Mohist children, the carriage started slowly and went to the east city gate. With the slow start of the carriage, the roof of the new four-wheel carriage opened slowly, allowing Sun Simiao to sit in the car, enjoy the soft breeze, warm sunshine and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Chang''an.


    When the four-wheel carriage came to the main road, Sun Simiao found that the road to the east gate had been blocked, and only his carriage passed through the whole street.


    "Your Majesty has a heart!" Sun Simiao sighed. It is Li Shimin who can write like this.


    "Doctor sun, have a nice trip!"


    On both sides of the street, Chang''an people watched Sun Simiao wave off on the new convertible four-wheel carriage and were reluctant to part with Sun Simiao.


    Over the years, Chang''an City has witnessed hundreds of schools of thought entering Chang''an, and each family has its own purpose, but Sun Simiao and doctors are the purest, treating the sick and saving the people, and hanging pots to help the world.


    In particular, Sun Simiao is honored as an old immortal by the people of Chang''an. Both medical skills and medical ethics are impeccable. It is natural to be sent by thousands of people.


    "Congratulations on sun Daoyou''s accomplishment!" Kong Desheng, who was also full of white hair, solemnly saluted Sun Simiao in front of the Dongcheng gate.


    "You''re welcome," Sun Simiao replied faintly.


    Kong Desheng looked at Sun Simiao, who was calm and leisurely, and couldn''t help admiring him. When all the scholars entered Chang''an, they naturally wanted to carry forward the hundred school theory, and he was still running around for Confucianism, but Sun Simiao had successors and left in a flutter.


    "Congratulations to sun Daoyou!" Li Chunfeng said in a loud voice. He looked like a fairy in his Taoist robe and flicked the dust in his hand.


    "Congratulations to sun Daoyou!" master farIn appeared.


    "Congratulations to sun Daoyou!"


    People from all schools of thought appeared one by one. Since the Mohist school came to Chang''an, all schools of thought have come one after another. Now, Sun Simiao, as the first person from all schools of thought to leave Chang''an, all schools of thought naturally came to see him off.


    Sun Simiao nodded back one by one.


    "Doctor sun!" under the east gate, Merton, dressed in ink, saluted Sun Simiao respectfully.


    "Mo Hou, after I left, doctors still hope that Mo Hou will take care of me." Sun Simiao bowed and said that the reason why he chose Mo Wu was mo Wu''s medical skills and ethics, and Mo Wu''s identity. In the process of the prosperity of doctors, Mohism has made great contributions, and Mo Wu is the link between doctors and Mohism.


    Merton solemnly promised: "doctor sun, don''t worry, no matter when! The friendship between doctors and Mohists will last forever."


    Sun Simiao nodded with satisfaction.


    "Master Sun!"


    Mo Wu led the doctors to send them off in tears.


    "Master, your old man is old. If you don''t let your disciples always wait beside you!" Zhang''s tearful eyes whirled.


    Sun Simiao touched Zhang''s head and said, "silly child, for the teacher, there is no concern and no need to take care of, and those children are the people who really need you."


    "Take care, master!" the disciples refused to give up one after another.


    Sun Simiao turned around and saw the talented doctors. He couldn''t help nodding and saying in a loud voice, "you practice medicine on behalf of doctors. I hope you will remember the doctor''s oath."


    Mo Wu stepped forward and said, "I''ll be a doctor and help the world."


    "As a doctor, we will keep a secret for the patient, even if the patient has died;


    "Doctors will not harm others with their own medical skills. Even if they are threatened, they will stick to their medical ethics."


    As the voices of doctors sounded, the doctors swore at the East Gate in unison, and the voice spread to the whole Chang''an City, echoing for a long time.


    A hundred people can''t help but sigh that today''s doctors are full of talents and vigorous development. More doctors swear as the program. The great prosperity of doctors is just around the corner. No one thought that in this hundred schools of thought, doctors took the lead in making a blockbuster.

 Chapter 1160

    "What''s going on outside? Why is it so noisy!"


    Lu Dongzan, who had a splitting headache, was awakened by the sound outside the post station. He pressed his temple in pain and got up.


    "Da Xiang, you finally wake up!" the Deputy envoy of Tubo said with a happy face. Lu Dong praised him and left the Deputy envoy of Tubo in the post station with the heart of death.


    Lu Dongzan rubbed his split head and asked, "how long have I been drunk?"


    "Back to Daxiang, you''ve been drunk all day and night." Deputy Tibetan envoy Lian hurried. After returning from the palace, ludongzan was already drunk. After constant vomiting, he was still drunk and unconscious.


    "Where''s Lang mu? Call him. I have something to tell him." ludongzan ordered.


    The Tibetan special envoy was embarrassed and did not listen to the order, but did not move.


    Lu Dongzan suddenly woke up and remembered that when he was solving the problem, Lang Mu took the lead to die generously. He couldn''t help looking pale.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Lu Dongzan hated the raging waves in his heart. He thought he was unique in wisdom and even broke the three problems of Mohist Zi, but he didn''t expect that he was still calculating by Mohist Zi and forced himself to abandon hundreds of Tibetan envoys. These are loyal people to him.


    "By the way, why was it so noisy just now!" Lu Dongzan suppressed his anger and changed the topic.


    The Tubo Deputy envoy replied, "Hui Daxiang, this is the doctor, Sun Simiao, who left Beijing. All the people in the city and all the families came to see him off."


    "Sun Simiao!" Lu Dongzan''s heart moved, and doctor sun was still there. If he would save hundreds of Tubo messengers. But then Lu Dongzan shook his head. Sun Simiao was a great doctor and made friends with the Mohist school. How can he pollute his identity and save the Tubo messenger.


    "Regardless of nationality and race, doctors are just dignified." Lu Dong praised angrily.


    The Tibetan Deputy envoy looked strange and said, "go back to the prime minister. The doctor has saved my Tibetan envoy."


    "Ah!" Lu Dongzan was surprised and stared at the Deputy envoy of Tubo.


    Since Lu Dongzan''s return, Tubo Deputy envoy has been inquiring about the news. Naturally, he heard about the treatment process of doctors in the whole city.


    "Open the belly, take out the food, and then sew it up?" when Lu Dongzan heard the doctor''s treatment process, he couldn''t help but be stunned. He didn''t expect to have such amazing medical skills.


    "Doctor sun has noble medical ethics and superb skills!" Lu Dong praised Sun Simiao with a change of attitude.


    The Tubo Deputy envoy shook his head again and said, "it is not doctor sun who really heals Tubo warriors, but doctor Mo Wu."


    "Mo Wu, the man of Mohism?" Lu Dongzan was stunned. A son of Mohism even tried to heal the Tubo warriors, which made Lu Dongzan think more.


    "Yes! No!" Deputy envoy of Tubo simply explained the relationship between Mo Wu and Mohist doctors, especially the oath of Mo Wu. Even if it was a Tubo, Mo Wu did not hesitate to treat it with the most advanced medical technology.


    "I didn''t expect that there were such pure people in Datang." Lu Dongzan sighed.


    The Tibetan Deputy envoy smiled bitterly and said, "doctor Mo Wu is indeed excellent in medical ethics, but the cost is also quite excellent. This is the medicine cost for treating Tibetan warriors sent by Mo hospital. Please have a look."


    "It''s so much." Lu Dongzan took a breath when he saw the dense bills. On the list of the hospital, the price of treating a Tibetan warrior alone has been nearly 100 yuan. You know, there are nearly 100 Tibetan warriors treated in Mo hospital. Isn''t it going to cost tens of thousands of yuan.


    At present, Lu Dongzan frowned. He couldn''t help wondering whether this was another plot of Mohist. Now he is a frightened bird. In every unreasonable place, he suspected that Mohist did it again.


    Tubo Deputy envoy shook his head and said, "the big phase doesn''t know. The doctor sent the bill and explained it. The doctor used the highest technology and the most advanced Qinglong real medicine. The Tubo warrior lives in the most sophisticated serious illness care unit of the doctor. The daily cost is a huge number, and the money is not much."


    "It won''t cost hundreds of dollars!" Lu Dongzan was puzzled. Everyone knew that the people of the Tang Dynasty spent very little money to see a doctor.


    Tubo Deputy envoy said bitterly: "in the Mexican hospital, the price of medicine for the people of the Tang Dynasty is cheap, and even the people of the Mojia village are free, but this is only limited to the people of the Tang Dynasty. If the people of foreign countries see a doctor, it is another price."


    Lu Dongzan couldn''t help but delay. He didn''t expect that doctors should treat Tang people differently from foreign people. However, this is also the helplessness of the Mexican hospital. Since the rise of the Mexican hospital, many foreign people have traveled thousands of miles to Chang''an for treatment, occupying a lot of medical resources and causing the dissatisfaction of many Chang''an people.


    "Mo hospital uses such expensive drugs without authorization. What if the patient doesn''t have the money to pay the bill?" Lu Dongzan said angrily. He has given money to Li Shimin and spent a lot along the way. Now there is little money left. Where can there be tens of thousands of money to pay for the drugs of these 100 Tibetan envoys.


    Tubo Deputy envoy said reluctantly, "this is the contradiction of doctors, but it is respected. When someone''s life is in danger, doctors will try their best to treat him with the best medical skills, regardless of whether to pay for the medicine. In the past, if the people of the Tang Dynasty were unable to pay for the medicine, they would work in the Mojia village to repay the debt after their illness recovered."


    "Working to pay off debts?" Lu Dongzan shook his head. I''m afraid this road is broken because of the bad relationship between Tubo and Mohism. "


    Ludongzan was in a dilemma. It was great news for him that nearly 100 Tubo envoys were cured, but the huge drug cost deterred him.


    With his position as prime minister, it is not easy to mobilize Wanguan''s money in Tubo, let alone in Datang; Tubo is barren. This time, in order to calm Datang''s anger, he has hollowed out the Treasury. If he spends tens of thousands of yuan, the purpose is only to pay for medicine for hundreds of people. I''m afraid even he can''t explain to Songzanganbu.


    In Mexico hospital,


    In addition to the unfortunate deaths of several Tibetan envoys due to alcoholism and bleeding, about 90 Tibetan envoys woke up one after another.


    When they learned of their situation, they couldn''t help but rejoice. They thought they would die, but they didn''t expect to be saved by doctors.


    "Thanks to doctor Mo Wu for saving us. Lang Mu is very grateful." Wei Lang mu, a close friend of Lu Dongzan, said respectfully to doctor Mo Wu.


    "Although Datang is hostile to Tubo, doctors can''t do nothing but die. You have been saved by doctors recently. I hope you won''t fight against Datang again in the future." Mo Wu said faintly.


    Langmuton was ashamed when he was sent to the Tang Dynasty. Although they were made difficult, they knew that it was Tubo''s fault and took the lead in sneaking attack on the Tang Dynasty.


    Suddenly, a doctor came in a hurry and reported to Mo Wu: "President Mo Wu, Lu Dongzan refused to pay the bill of Mo hospital."

 Chapter 1161

    The just sober Tubo messengers couldn''t help looking at each other. However, when they knew their medicine expenses, they didn''t blame Lu Dongzan. Instead, they couldn''t help laughing bitterly and said, "doctor Mo Wu bothered. I''m afraid our life is not worth a hundred dollars."


    Say it! Langmu wanted to struggle out of the hospital bed, but the severe pain made him collapse in bed again.


    Mo Wu waved his hand and said, "the cost of medicine will be discussed later. There is no precedent for doctors to rush people without curing their diseases."


    With a wave of Merton''s hand, a group of doctors immediately came forward, continued to apply medicine to these Tubo envoys, and recorded the recovery of Tubo envoys.


    "President Mo Wu, this is a drug charge of nearly ten thousand dollars. You just took over Mo hospital, and you have such a big deficit, I''m afraid..." the doctor on the side worried that Mo Wu was young and didn''t have enough prestige. He was appreciated by Sun Simiao and took over Mo hospital because of this operation and Mo Wu''s oath. If someone catches the handle, I''m afraid there will be endless trouble, After all, doctors are not harmonious.


    Merton shook his head and said, "don''t worry, someone will be the wronged leader for the medicine expenses of the Tubo mission."


    "Wronged big head!" the doctor didn''t understand.


    When Mo Wuyu swept away, he saw a shiny head enter the Mo hospital. He couldn''t help smiling and said, "isn''t this coming?"


    "I''m here to pay the medicine bill of the Tibetan emissary," said Abbot Tongren with his hands folded and a compassionate face.


    "Master, I admire you for your compassion." Mo Wu said with a strange smile.


    Although Abbot Tongren didn''t collude with Tongji, he was also familiar with Tongji''s means. Now the Buddhist family has the medicine bills of nearly 90 Tibetan envoys. I''m afraid these Tibetan envoys will be on the Buddhist thief ship and become the first batch of Buddhist teams in Tubo. From this point of view, the Buddhist family''s tens of thousands of medicine expenses are not at a loss.


    "Amitabha, benefactors are all people who have great blessings. It was a situation of death, but now they come back to life. It is the blessing of the Buddha." in the ward, abbot Tongren said a few words to lead a group of Tubo envoys to the heart of the Buddha.


    It is reasonable to say that religious propaganda is prohibited in the hospital, but for the sake of the money paid by the abbot, the doctors are still open and did not stop it.


    "Thanks for saving his life, master Langmu! I will always serve the Buddha in my life." Langmu said with gratitude. He thought he was not worth the price, but he didn''t expect to be taken out by the Buddhist without hesitation.


    Other Tibetan envoys also shed tears of gratitude and doubled their favor with Buddhism.


    "Buddhists only travel to those who have a chance, and don''t ask for return. Please continue to heal your wounds. After the wounds are healed, I''ll see you again." Abbot Tongren folded his hands and said softly.


    Abbot Tongren didn''t ask for anything in return, but also made the Tubo envoys firmly believe in Buddhist fate and that they were the people who reported great blessings in Abbot Tongren''s mouth.


    "Doctor Mo Wu, I came here for another purpose besides paying for medicine." the abbot of Tongren went out of the ward and found Mo Wu and cut him off.


    Abbot Tongren is a big gold owner. Mo Wu smiled and said, "Abbot Tongren, please say."


    "Doctor Mo Wu must know that the Buddhists are going to preach on the Tubo plateau, but the medicine on the Tubo plateau is backward, and the people are suffering from many diseases. The poor monk wants to ask the doctor to prepare some medicine." the abbot of Tongren took the lead directly.


    Mo Wu frowned and said, "don''t be surprised, fellow abbot. Doctors don''t participate in various religions, but they are not allowed to use medical knowledge to absorb believers. I''m sorry that doctors can''t help."


    The abbot of Tongren quickly shook his head and said, "Mr. Mo Wu misunderstood. I don''t want to publicize Buddhism with medical medicine, and Buddhism doesn''t need to. If I like, I can use Mo Hou''s anti superstition means to harvest countless believers in Tubo, and ordinary medicine has no secret in the hands of Buddhism."


    Mo Wu nodded and looked at the abbot puzzled.


    Abbot Tongren said frankly: "What I want is the genuine green dragon medicine. The Tang Dynasty Buddhists have just entered Tubo, and their foundation is not stable. They must get the support of the upper class of Tubo, and the genuine green dragon medicine that can bring back the dead is the best stepping stone. The Buddha''s westward entry into Tubo is the guidance of marquis mo. doctor Mo five will not help you! Of course, I will say frankly, this is the genuine green dragon medicine of the doctor, absolutely not Bluff and deceive with Qinglong real medicine. "


    Mo Wu frowned. Now that he is leading the doctors, he is qualified to know about a hundred schools. Naturally, he knows the transaction between the Mohists and the Buddhists. At present, he nodded slightly and said, "in that case, the doctors can give the Buddhists 36 courses of Qinglong genuine medicine every year according to the example of the western regions."


    "Thank you, doctor Mo Wu. The Buddhist family will never forget the help of doctors."


    Abbot Tongren was overjoyed when he heard the speech. During this trip, the Buddhists got people''s hearts and divine medicine at one stroke. Even if they paid tens of thousands of yuan, it was worth it.


    "Buddhism!"


    When ludongzan heard that the Buddhists came out to rescue him, he didn''t show much joy on his face.


    Although the Buddhist family paid for the medicine to help Lu Dongzan out of the siege, so that he would not lose face, he understood that there was no free lunch in the world. The Buddhist family''s efforts at the moment must be redoubled in the future.


    However, today''s ludongzan can only accept it completely. There is only one person responsible for all this, that is the mojiazi.


    "The Mohists deceive people too much!" the Deputy envoy of Tubo clenched his teeth.


    Lu Dongzan sneered, "don''t worry, Mozi won''t be proud for long?"


    The Deputy envoy of Tubo hurriedly advised, "don''t be impulsive. Now the Tang Dynasty is powerful. Tubo has finally won the understanding of the Tang Dynasty. If you act rashly, it will annoy the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid Tubo will be in danger."


    Lu Dongzan shook his head and said, "I know the weight. Naturally, I won''t let Tubo do it."


    "What does that mean?" the Tubo Deputy envoy said in surprise.


    Ludong praised Leng and said, "according to the secret covenant between Tubo and desire Valley, the Mohist is the one who must be eliminated. Now Tubo has failed, it''s time for desire Valley to set out."


    The Tubo Deputy envoy was relieved when he heard that it was not Tubo''s move. He frowned and said, "the Western Turks are far away in the western regions. How can we kill the mojiazi."


    Ludongzan shook his head and said, "then you''re wrong. You don''t think about where Yu gusher came from. He was originally the prince of East Turks, the son of Shibi Khan, and Jieli Khan was his uncle and nephew, who had a decisive influence on East Turks."


    Deputy envoy of Tubo was thoughtful.


    "The Tang Dynasty captured Eastern Turks and moved all Turkic departments south. Although the Turkic departments have been reused, many people still hold a grudge against the Tang Dynasty. Many people have secretly contacted Yugu. As long as Yugu gives an order, the Turks in Chang''an city will naturally work hard for people." Lu Dongzan sneered.


    "Assassinate!" the Tubo Deputy envoy was suddenly surprised and understood Yugu''s plan.


    "Good!" Lu Dongzan nodded solemnly.

 Chapter 1162

    "You have almost recovered and can be discharged from the hospital." in just ten days, a group of Tubo envoys have almost recovered,


    As a group of doctors removed the suture and Mo Wu signed on the discharge form, a group of Tubo envoys walked out of Mo hospital as if in a dream until they saw the sunshine outside on them. Only then did they believe that they had walked a circle from death to life.


    "Look, that''s the Tibetan mission. It''s said that it''s going to die. The doctors ripped it open and saved them all." a people in the Tang Dynasty couldn''t help exclaiming when they saw the Tibetan emissary coming out of the Mo hospital. Suddenly, many people pointed around the Tibetan mission.


    "The king of hell told you to die in the third watch and didn''t dare to keep you until dawn. Doctor Mo Wu is known as the king of hell! He can take human life back from the king of hell."


    After this operation, the Mexican hospital has become famous and its medical skill has been improved. It has mastered the medical skill of operating the five internal organs. Many surgical operations have been carried out smoothly in the Mexican hospital, and countless people live.


    Even Mo Wu has a new nickname, Yan Wangduo, which claims to be able to save people from Yan Wangduo.


    "Big phase, we''re back!"


    Lang Mu came to the post station, came to ludongzan and said respectfully.


    "Just come back! Just come back!" Ludong Zan was stunned. He didn''t expect Langmu and others to come back so soon. His face soon changed into ecstasy.


    Lu Dongzan looked at the dead man standing in front of him. He was filled with emotion. He got up and opened Langmu''s half sleeved Tibetan clothes. Suddenly, a ferocious scar appeared on Langmu''s chest.


    "Let you suffer!" Lu Dongzan said with shame like Sichuan Opera.


    Langmu and others shook their heads and said, "we are willing to die for Daxiang without complaint. Fortunately, we were saved by Tongren master, so we were lucky to pick up a life and meet Daxiang again."


    "Buddhism is really compassionate." the film emperor Lu Dongzan couldn''t help but delay and immediately showed his gratitude. "Since you have recovered and Chang''an is not a place to stay for a long time, we can''t delay. We''ll go back to Tubo."


    The Tubo messengers nodded with lingering fear. They managed to escape from death. Naturally, they couldn''t wait to leave Datang. Otherwise, if the Mo family betrayed their faith, they might not be able to get out of Datang alive.


    Immediately, Lu Dongzan went to the palace and was ready to say goodbye to Li Shimin.


    "Someone stop!"


    Emperor Qian, a general of the forbidden guard who suddenly spoke stiff Tang language, waved Lu Dongzan to stop him for investigation.


    Lu Dongzan saw the other party''s face quite different from that of the Tang Dynasty. He couldn''t help smiling and said, "it''s a general led by ASHNA. I''m Tubo Lu Dongzan. I''ve come to say goodbye to Tian Khan."


    ASHNA''s association rate carefully checked ludongzan''s waist token, looked at ludongzan covertly, then nodded tacitly, waved his big hand and let ludongzan go.


    After seeing Lu Dongzan into the palace, ASHNA''s association rate couldn''t help thinking of the secret letter from the grassland. He wanted Gu Sheh to secretly promise him the position of YeHu of West Turk and command a tribe on the condition that he was allowed to assassinate the Mexican family.


    ASHNA''s association rate and Yugu Shea are close brothers. They are both the sons of Shibi Khan. Since the Tang Dynasty conquered the East Turks in the fourth year of Zhenguan, they have followed their brother Tuli Khan to return to the Tang Dynasty, but their brother Yugu Shea has taken refuge in the West Turks. Who would have thought that Feng Shui would take turns? They have been depressed and frustrated in the Tang Dynasty for more than ten years, His humble brother took over the Western Turks and became the overlord of the western regions.


    Their different status makes ashner''s association rate unbalanced, and they are excited about ye Hu''s position.


    "Brother, what is a Mohist? Even if you assassinate the Mohist for your brother, how can you escape back to the grassland? In that case, why not kill Li Shimin and Mohist together. In this way, you can relieve the grassland disaster and make the Tang Dynasty headless, so that you can escape back to the grassland for your brother." ASHNA''s association rate secretly hated in his heart.


    When he went to the Tang Dynasty, he also wanted to make achievements. Unfortunately, his character was inferior. He repeatedly falsely accused his brother Tuli Khan in front of Li Shimin. He was despised by Li Shimin. For ten years, he stayed in the position of Zhonglang general without making any progress. Watching other Hu generals make military achievements in the Tang Dynasty, he had already harbored a grudge in his heart, In addition, many Turkic ministries were dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty, and a large number of resistance forces quietly gathered around him.


    He even thought that if he could rely on the prestige of assassinating Li Shimin, he would certainly echo in all Turkic ministries, and there would be no possibility of replacing Yugu in the future. Which Turkic Khan in each part of the grassland doesn''t want to be a Khan.


    Ludongzan naturally didn''t know that ASHNA''s association rate had increased the difficulty of his assassination. Instead, he went straight to the Taiji hall to bid farewell to Li Shimin and prepared to get out of the vortex of Chang''an City as soon as possible.


    "Farewell?" Li Shimin was surprised. Unexpectedly, Lu Dongzan was in a hurry to leave just after the Tubo messenger was discharged from the hospital.


    Lu Dongzan nodded and said, "tell Tian Khan that Wang Songzan Ganbu and imperial concubine Wen are deeply in love. I must have been waiting for the good news. If Wei Chen goes back one day earlier, it means that Tian Khan will complete the pair of bitter mandarin ducks one day earlier."


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "in that case, it''s inconvenient for me to stay. Merton, as the special envoy to entertain the Tibetan mission, you should give a gift of Lu Daxiang. Remember, don''t be rude again."


    After hearing Li Shimin''s words, Lu Dongzan was relieved. With Li Shimin''s order, he would not mess around if he wanted to come to the Mohist school.


    Merton stepped out and said, "don''t worry, your majesty. This time, the minister will not be rude, but will also take out an ink skill as compensation for the previous impoliteness."


    "Ink technology?"


    Li Shimin was surprised to know that each of the Mohist ink skills is valuable! The ink family is going to give him an ink skill for nothing.


    "Thank you for the generous gift of mohou!" although Lu Dongzan was taboo to Merton, he really couldn''t refuse the preferential treatment of Mohist ink technology.


    Merton laughed and said, "it doesn''t matter. Speaking of this ink technique, it is also related to your son''s theory of Qinling mausoleum. At the beginning, the reason why Mo dared to chase into the 800 mile vast sea was due to the method of collecting dew in the desert, which was born out of the secret brewing technique of Mohism. Today, I just take this opportunity to present Lu Daxiang as a previous apology."


    "Brewing secret skill, the method of collecting dew!" Lu Dongzan felt a pain when he heard the speech. With Lu Dongzan''s intelligence, he immediately understood the principle of brewing secret skill. However, what he didn''t think was that he worked hard to get brewing secret skill and was an accomplice in killing his son.


    "Kill the heart!" the man Dynasty''s civil and military forces were awed by the fact that Merton disclosed his secret brewing skills. Now the Tang Dynasty has issued a prohibition on alcohol, and the secret brewing skills have become chicken ribs. However, the mojiazi killed Xinlu Dongzan with the method of collecting dew derived from the secret brewing skills.


    However, Li Shimin, who is familiar with the three strategies of Tubo, secretly praised his wisdom. In this way, Lu Dongzan can get the secret skill of brewing without doubt, and then consume Tubo''s food greatly.


    Ludongzan shook his body several times. Finally, he forced his body to stay in shape and said respectfully to Merton, "thank you for your kindness."


    Lu Dongzan finished, saluted Li Shimin respectfully and said, "Heaven Khan forgives me. The foreign minister''s internal injury hasn''t healed yet. I''ll leave first."


    With that, Lu Dongzan turned and left. Just out of the Tai Chi hall, he gushed out a mouthful of blood, and suddenly felt a dizzy whirl.


    "Da Xiang." the Tubo Deputy envoy hurriedly helped Lu Dongzan and exclaimed.


    Lu Dongzan endured his grief and said weakly, "go back to Tubo immediately and don''t stay for a moment."

 Chapter 1163

    "Drive!"


    The Tubo mission''s motorcade set off quickly along the brick road towards Lanzhou. At the same time, it also looked towards the rear from time to time, for fear of pursuers coming.


    "Where is this?" Lu Dongzan woke up in the carriage and found himself lying on the scolding. He frowned and asked. As soon as he returned to the post station, he could no longer hold on and fainted to the ground, while the Tubo mission set out immediately without hesitation according to his order.


    "Amitabha, benefactor Lu woke up and now he has arrived at Chencang." master farIn answered with a Buddhist name. When Tubo returned this time, the Buddhists followed him and took the opportunity to preach in Tubo.


    "Chen Cang!" Lu Dongzan was relieved to hear that he was far away from Chang''an city.


    "Back to the big phase, you have been sleeping for two days, and master farIn has been rescuing you." Lang Mu replied.


    "Thank you, master farIn!" Lu Dongzan bowed and thanked.


    Master farIn looked merciful and said, "Amitabha! The poor monk has also heard about the encounter of benefactor Lu''s son. During benefactor Lu''s sleep, I have recited the past life Sutra a hundred times. In order to make the son spend more time, benefactor Lu, please don''t be sad again."


    "Master, you have a heart." even if Lu Dongzan was wary of Buddhism, he immediately became very fond of it and thanked again and again.


    Master farIn recited a Buddha''s horn and checked ludongzan''s body. After confirming that it was ok, he left the Tubo mission''s motorcade.


    After master farIn left, the Tubo Deputy envoy quietly entered the carriage and sighed, "please save your sorrow, otherwise you will be poisoned by Mohism."


    A trace of grief flashed in ludongzan''s eyes, and then he said resolutely: "It would be a big mistake for the Mo family to use this to attack the truth. Now the Tang Dynasty has issued a prohibition on alcohol, but it has not said that wine can not be imported from other countries. My Tibetan highland barley wine is the best raw material for wine making. Now I have obtained the secret skill of wine making. I want to use the secret skill of wine making that my son has bought to make Tibet rich and strong. My son will not die in vain. One day, this revenge will be avenged."


    In order to calm down the anger of Datang, Tubo has emptied the Treasury. Now it is time to need money, and Datang''s prohibition of alcohol just gives Tubo an excellent opportunity for recovery. If it is operated properly, it can certainly earn a lot of money from Datang.


    However, ludongzan didn''t know that this opportunity was the bait carefully prepared by the Mohist school. However, under the influence of waigali''s desire, the wise ludongzan finally fascinated his eyes.


    Lu Dongzan got away from his secret brewing skills, but the distilleries in Datang were all popular. In the twinkling of an eye, January had passed, and the alcohol prohibition order came into effect.


    Although in the last month, the price of wine rose again and again, and many wineries made a lot of money, in the long run, they lost too much.


    Everyone is waiting and watching how to solve Qianchou, who is the first famous liquor in the Tang Dynasty, but the news has made many wineries despair.


    Solve thousands of worries! Officially seal the cellar and no longer make wine.


    "What, relieving thousands of worries is nearly 100000 business every year. It''s so easy to end." the village head of Zhangjia village was stunned.


    He had expected Mojia village to plead for an extension of the prohibition or to let it go, but he didn''t expect that even Mojia Zi''s face would be hard to use.


    A villager in Zhangjia sighed: "it is rumored that this prohibition is mainly aimed at Mojia village. Mojia Zi naturally doesn''t want to touch the mildew at this time."


    The village head of Zhangjia village frowned and said, "Mojia village has a big business. Even if it loses its wine making business, it can still make waves. However, Zhangjia village depends on wine making for a living. Now it has issued a prohibition order, and I''m afraid it will drink from the West and the north in the future.


    "That''s right! I heard that Mohists and doctors are very close. The amnesty of this prohibition order is medical alcohol. Even if I want to come to Mohist village, I can still make wine smoothly, and my Zhangjia village can only waste all the skills of my ancestors." the villagers of Zhangjia sighed.


    The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond. Now the prohibition of alcohol has not hurt the muscles and bones in Mojia village, but Zhangjia village has come to a dead end.


    "Where is the village head of Zhangjia? Mo Wu came to ask for an audience." suddenly a notice came, which immediately alerted all the villagers of Zhangjia.


    "Mo Wu? Yan Wangduo." the village head of Zhangjia was shocked when he heard the speech. Since Mo hospital opened its belly to treat Tubo messengers, Mo Wu''s reputation has been at its peak. Zhangjiacun is not far from Chang''an city. How can he not have heard of Mo Wu''s reputation.


    "I''m the village head of Zhangjia village. I don''t know what doctor Mo Wu can do for me." the village head of Zhangjia village quickly got up to meet him. The famous doctor Mo Wu came to Zhangjia village, which naturally made Zhangjia village very cautious, not to mention that Mo Wu has another identity, that is, a man of Mohism.


    "Now the imperial court has issued a prohibition order against alcohol, but doctors can''t practice medicine without medical alcohol. Fortunately, his majesty pardoned doctors and allowed them to use alcohol. Mo Wu heard that zhangjiacun wine is always good and cheap. I don''t know whether the village head is willing to accept orders from doctors to produce medical alcohol." Mo Wu didn''t sell off, but directly explained his intention


    "Doctor''s order, medical alcohol?" the village head of Zhangjia village immediately felt happy. Originally, Zhangjia village had run out of water, and the doctor''s medical alcohol order instantly brought Zhangjia village back to life.


    No, even better than in the past, because this is Datang''s only business.


    However, while the village head of Zhangjia village was excited, he had many questions in his heart. He couldn''t help asking, "excuse me, I heard that doctors and Mohists are good friends, and Mr. Mo Wu is both Mohist doctors, and Mohist village itself has a wine cellar. I don''t know why Mr. Mo Wu wants to give orders to Zhangjia village.


    Mo Wu laughed and said, "what''s strange? The medical alcohol of doctors doesn''t require taste, only purity. Naturally, the lower the price, the better. Although there is a wine cellar in Mojia village, its price is too high, and the small wine cellar workshop can''t reach the purity and output of medical alcohol. It''s natural that Zhangjia distillery, which has always been good and cheap, is the most suitable."


    Zhangjia village is famous for brewing turbid wine. With the purification process of Mojia village, although the quality of wine has been greatly improved, the price has not increased. It is the first conscience ration of ordinary people and is quite famous in Chang''an city.


    Village head Zhang''s eyes flashed and said, "so medical alcohol doesn''t need top-grade food to make wine."


    The village head of Zhangjia village keenly grasped the key points in Mo Wu dialect and solemnly asked, if so, the production cost of medical alcohol will be greatly reduced.


    "That''s natural. As long as the medical alcohol produced in zhangjiacun meets the standard, there is no need to worry about the taste and raw materials, and the doctors accept it all according to the order." Mo Wu said without hesitation.


    The village head of zhangjiacun immediately smiled and said, "in that case, the price of medical alcohol can be reduced again. Zhangjiacun will certainly live up to Mr. Mo Wu''s kindness."


    Mo Wu nodded and said, "good advice is against the ear. Good medicine tastes bitter. Mo Wu has a sentence that is not pleasant to hear. Please don''t blame the village head."


    When the village head of Zhangjia village heard the speech, he immediately got up and said solemnly, "Mr. Mo Wu, please speak."


    Mo Wu said seriously: "Mojia village and Zhangjia village are close neighbors. Mowu''s choice of medical alcohol orders in Zhangjia village must be suspected of favoritism in the eyes of outsiders. Coupled with his Majesty''s prohibition order, many wineries must stare at Zhangjia village. In addition, the purity of medical alcohol is too high. Once drinking it, it is easy to have an accident. Please also ask the village head to restrain the villagers from violating the prohibition order, otherwise the doctors can only choose another one Wine cellar. "


    The village head of Zhangjia couldn''t help but feel a chill in his heart and respectfully said to Mo Wu: "don''t worry, Mr. Mo Wu. If the villagers of Zhangjia violate the prohibition order, I don''t have to wait for Mr. Mo Wu''s orders. I''ll clean up the door myself."


    Medical alcohol orders are very important to zhangjiacun and must not be lost. If the alcohol prohibition order is violated, the villagers will go to prison. If they lose these orders, zhangjiacun will really be at its end.


    Mo Wu nodded when he heard the speech. In this era, the village rules are more awesome than the king''s law. Whether Zhangjia village can do it depends on its own luck.

 Chapter 1164

    "Shifu, the fifth martial uncle is so eccentric that he gave the order for medical alcohol to zhangjiacun!" in the Mo mansion, Wu Meiniang held Mo Tan and complained to Mo Wu.


    In her opinion, although Mo Wu has studied medicine, he is still half a Mohist. Obviously, there is a wine shop in Mojia village, but Mo Wu gives orders for medical alcohol to outsiders. You should know how many Mohist children will lose their jobs once the wine shop in Mojia village is closed.


    As the eldest martial sister of Mohist school, although she doesn''t like the profit of medical alcohol, she can''t stand the complaints of Mohist children in the distillery, so she came to Mohist house to make a strong start for the distillery.


    Morton remained unmoved and said, "the winery should have been closed for a long time. Every time I go back to Mojia village, the whole Mojia village is shrouded in a strong smell of distiller''s grains. It''s better to close the polluted workshop as soon as possible. It really doesn''t accord with the reputation of the first village in the world."


    Wu Meiniang said discontentedly, "when the prohibition order was not issued, she solved thousands of worries, but she earned a lot of money for Mojia village every year. Why didn''t master say to shut down the brewing workshop."


    Merton was immediately embarrassed and said with a smile: "relieving Qianchou is the first pot of gold accumulated by the Mohists. Now the Mohist village has developed, the brewing secret technology has leaked, the importance of relieving Qianchou has greatly decreased, and the distillery has not adapted to the image of the high ink technology of the Mohist village. It will be shut down sooner or later."


    In fact, though the solution is good, it has not reached the top of the famous liquor in Tang Dynasty. The first opportunity is that Mohist village pioneered the Baijiu technology, and the quality of liquor was greatly refined.


    Wu Meiniang could not help sighing when she heard the speech. She immediately knew that master had made up her mind. It was impossible for the brewing workshop to resume work. Even if the prohibition on alcohol was lifted one day, I''m afraid the brewing workshop would not resume.


    "Disciple, you know what to do." Wu Meiniang handed the younger martial brother to the master and immediately turned away.


    "Eldest martial sister!" when Wu Meiniang stepped into the fish champion building, a group of Mohist children in the tavern came forward and looked forward to Wu Meiniang.


    Wu Meiniang shook her head slightly, and the Mohist children in the tavern suddenly looked lost.


    "Mohist village cellar is closed, even if the ban is lifted, the solution will not be produced. Mohist village will give up Baijiu business." Wu Mei Niang''s voice is firm.


    "What? Solve thousands of worries!"


    In the hall of yuzhuangyuan building, a group of people are anxiously waiting for the news of solving Qianchou, that is, the ten agents of Datang who solve Qianchou. When they hear the decision of Mojia village, all the agents are in an uproar. These years, they have made a lot of money by solving Qianchou. Even if the prohibition order has been issued, they do not intend to give up their qualification to join, But I did not expect that the notice of Baijiu village giving up liquor business was coming.


    "Jieqianchou is the first famous liquor in the Tang Dynasty, and its value and significance are different. It''s too rash for the Mohist family to do so." Zheng''s master frowned. He has been immersed in the business community for many years. Naturally, he knows the value of jieqianchou, and he knows that the prohibition can''t exist for a long time. One day, the prohibition will be lifted. The Mohist village will give up the brewing business directly, but the loss is heavy.


    Wu Meiniang said, "this is the master''s decision. It''s a foregone conclusion. You''d better come with me to refund the 5000 Guan deposit!"


    Hearing that this was mojiazi''s decision, a group of franchisees immediately understood that it was done and could not be changed. For these businessmen, it was impossible to give up as long as there was profit. However, mojiazi has surpassed them. There are too many businessmen who simply pursue money, and the profit to solve thousands of worries is not enough to affect mojiazi''s will.


    With the franchisees leaving with the deposit, however, two people deliberately delayed to the end. One is the Zheng owner of Guannei road and the other is the young master Chen of Lingnan road. No, it should be called the Chen owner now.


    "Why don''t you two get the deposit?" Wu Meiniang looked at you in surprise.


    Zheng and Chen ignored one eye and immediately understood that the other party was afraid to play the same idea as themselves. At present, Zheng didn''t hide it and said bluntly: "Zheng isn''t going to receive the 5000 yuan deposit and is going to stay in Mojia village."


    Wu Mei Niang was surprised. "Two owners are afraid to laugh and tell me that Mohist has abandoned the Baijiu business. How can they collect two home owners'' deposits? If this is going to come out, let the world think of Mohism."


    Young Chen Jiazhu, however, smiled and said, "the elder sister is not going to act. The Mohist village has given up the liquor business, but Chen heard that mohou moved the wine shop of Gao Chang back. I would not wait for the deposit, but wanted to represent the wine business in Baijiu village."


    When Zheng looked at Chen, he couldn''t help sighing. He was so young that he was so keen to seize business opportunities.


    The prohibition of alcohol in the Tang Dynasty is to prohibit wine making with grain, while the wine in the western regions is made with grapes, which does not consume grain at all. Naturally, it is not in the ranks of prohibition. At that time, wine is the only wine produced in the Tang Dynasty, which is a unique business.


    Moreover, both men and women can drink, and its market prospect is broader. How can we not make them excited.


    "You two are worthy of being business elites. Mojia village does have wine brewing business, but the location is not in Mojia village, but in Dengzhou, the land of Shandong (that is, Yantai in later generations). Because grapes need to be grafted and grown, the output in the previous few years will not be too high, so you have to think about it." Wu Meiniang said bluntly. Although Dengzhou has a tradition of growing grapes, it may take a few years to grow and improve varieties on a large scale.


    Two people look at each other, the output is not high, then the representative is rare, and the price is naturally not low. They are not only happy, but this unique business is more promising.


    "We have made up our mind and will never go back." Zheng and Chen said in unison.


    "Well, as an old customer, Meiniang made an exception to allow them to choose the agency area first." Meiniang couldn''t help but have a good impression on them, Lang said.


    The Zheng family leader laughed and said, "in that case, Zheng had the courage to choose first when he was a few years older. This time, Zheng still chose guanneidao."


    The last time the business of relieving thousands of worries was divided equally between the Zheng family and the Qian family. Now the Qian family is out, and the Zheng family takes all the business of guanneidao.


    "Congratulations, master Zheng." the Chen family leader said, "this time Chen also chose Lingnan road."


    Suddenly, Wu Meiniang and Zheng family leader couldn''t help but take an unexpected look at Chen family leader. In terms of economic potential, only Henan Road including Luoyang City can be compared with the inner road of Chang''an city. However, Chen family leader chose the remote Lingnan road instead of the most promising Henan road.


    "The younger generation is terrible!" the Zheng family leader can''t help but praise it. He has been in Guannei road for many years and has made many dignitaries before he can be sure to represent the business of Guannei road. Although Henan road has broad prospects, if the Chen family leader forcibly enters Henan Road, I''m afraid he will be swallowed by those aristocratic families and his family will be destroyed and killed if he is not careful, Although the profit of Lingnan Road, the headquarters of the Chen family, is much smaller, the victory lies in safety.


    "In that case, I''d like to congratulate you both." Wu Meiniang said happily.

 Chapter 1165

    "Solve thousands of worries and completely stop production."


    "Mojia village will brew western region wine in Dengzhou!"


    As Zheng Chen and his colleagues left, Mohist gave up wine Baijiu and decided to brew the wine of the western region. Immediately, the Changan business community caused an uproar. The original solution of the deposit was solved by regret.


    The prohibition of alcohol has been issued. Wine is a unique business. Anyone can see the huge business opportunities of wine. The secret skill of making wine in Mojia village comes from the famous Gaochang wine workshop in the lobby. It is said that Mojia Zi brought all the winemakers in Gaochang back to Datang.


    Before brewing, Dengzhou wine has spread wildly in Chang''an city. We can imagine how hot this business will be.


    However, when they returned to yuzhuangyuan building to continue acting, Wu Meiniang refused, saying that other wine agents of Datang Badao need to wait until next year for fair bidding.


    The agents immediately sighed and shouted that they had missed the opportunity. Although Wu Meiniang''s practice was fair, everyone knew that if they wanted to obtain the agency qualification again, the price would be several times higher.


    "Mozi is worthy of Mozi!" the people of Chang''an couldn''t help but exclaim.


    With jieqianchou''s announcement to completely stop production, the price of jieqianchou that was originally on sale immediately soared. The custom of Mojia village''s distillery is to sell a batch of wine and store a batch of old wine as base wine. It can be imagined that the value of these wines in Mojia village must double.


    Strive for further improvement, Mohist village has lost its understanding of the huge profits of thousands of worries. But no one thought that Mo Jia Zi had straight and then invited wine. This unwitting layout made the Mohist village once again get a business, not only making up for the loss of Baijiu village''s liquor business, but also raising the level of the liquor.


    "Sir, the doctor''s alcohol order was given to the Zhangjia distillery, while the Mohist solution Qianchou completely stopped production, and other workshops have stopped production and sealed the cellar."


    Yushi Taichung. Yu Zhining, Baijiu, who was responsible for prohibition, heard a report of his pride. He tried to enforce the prohibition order. He wanted to take a break against Mohist village. After all, the solution to the worry was that the liquor was the most expensive and the most profitable workshop. Losing the understanding of thousand worries was like breaking the Mohist village, which was enough to make the Mohist bend over backwards.


    "Yes, the prohibition is related to the stability of people''s food prices and the security of the Empire. You can''t ignore it at all. Once you find that a workshop violates the prohibition, you will be severely punished," Yu Zhining shouted.


    "Yes," his subordinates nodded. He naturally heard the meaning of Yu Zhining''s words. Suddenly, his heart moved and remembered the news he had just heard.


    "There''s another news about the Mo family. I need to report it to your excellency." my subordinates thought for a while.


    "Say!" Yu Zhining said in a good mood.


    "It''s said that Mojia village decided to make western wine in Dengzhou. I don''t know if it violates the prohibition." some subordinates are uncertain.


    Baijiu wine is not prohibited from food safety. However, the imperial court has just issued a ban on wine, and Mohist abandoned Baijiu and turned wine. This is indeed a suspicion of drilling in the court.


    "The MOH family was so bold that they committed crimes against the wind and deliberately fought against the imperial court." Yu Zhining suddenly flew into a rage.


    He managed to get rid of Mohist''s worries, but Mohist turned around and found another source of money. Even if he didn''t have the economy, he knew that wine was the only business of Datang, and the benefits he obtained must be like when the secret brewing skills of Mohist village were not leaked.


    It turned out that he still wondered why mojiazi cooperated with the prohibition. He didn''t expect that mojiazi had already figured out a way out, but used him. When he thought that he didn''t let mojiazi lose anything, he helped mojiazi accumulate money. Yu Zhining responded like a fly.


    "I''m going to play to your majesty now. I must refer to a copy of the ink family." when my subordinates saw Yu Zhining''s anger, they immediately expressed their heartfelt way.


    Yu Zhining took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "no! Mohist has just returned from a great victory and has been wronged. Brewing wine is strictly not in violation of the prohibition. Even if we play it in front of your majesty, Mohist can argue over it."


    His subordinates frowned and said, "is it so arrogant to look at the Mohist school?"


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly, "the Mohist thought he had played a little clever, so he was complacent, but he didn''t know that he was inviting the king into the urn and looking for his own death."


    "Why did you say that?" my subordinates didn''t understand.


    Yu Zhining complacently said: "brewing wine requires wine secret skills. Do you know where the wine secret recipe of Mojia village comes from!"


    The subordinate thought and said, "from Gaochang, it is said that mojiazi only took two kinds of secret skills from Gaochang. One is the textile secret skill, which was given to Majia village, and the other is the wine secret skill, which is the wine that is now ready to be brewed in Dengzhou."


    "That''s right! The wine secret skill comes from Gaochang and is the booty of the western expedition. Now hou Shangshu has not triumphed, and the western expedition is not over, the Mohist son takes the booty of the army''s capture of Gaochang as his own and seeks welfare for the Mohist village. Is this an act of embezzling the booty?" Yu Zhining sneered.


    The subordinates suddenly realized that mojiazi may have hit the edge of the prohibition on wine making with wine, but his embezzlement of wine making secret skills as booty is a stone hammer. Embezzlement of booty is a taboo. This crime is even more serious than the prohibition.


    "More than that, for the sake of Princess Changle''s production, mojiazi left the firearms prison without permission and returned to the capital alone. It is also a great crime for a general to abandon his soldiers." Yu Zhining said ruthlessly.


    Since we want to impeach the Mojia Zi, the alcohol prohibition order alone is not enough to hurt the Mojia Zi. The two culprits of embezzling booty and abandoning soldiers to return to Beijing alone are Yu Zhining''s real trump card this time.


    "Your Excellency is wise!" his subordinates admire him.


    "Go and write a memorial! This time we are not alone. The firearm supervisor is famous all over the world and has invincible attack power. I think many people are salivating for this army and want to be under his command." Yu Zhining said with a sinister smile.


    After waiting for many years, the Mexican family finally revealed a flaw, that is, Princess Changle.


    As long as he takes these charges against mojiazi and loses his first merit in the western expedition and the world-famous firearms prison, the power in mojiazi''s hands will be greatly reduced, enough to suppress mojiazi again. Moreover, he believes that many people have the same idea. As long as he takes the lead in attacking mojiazi, naturally someone will follow suit.


    In the series of Zhining, soon, an impeachment against Mohism was quietly formed, and the time was at the next imperial meeting.


    Li Shimin, who finally handled the matter of Tubo, finally remembered Qu Zhisheng, king of Gaochang, and was ready to summon him. As the general who escorted Qu Zhisheng back to Chang''an City, mojiazi will attend the great court meeting.


    At that time, it will be a time of war.

 Chapter 1166

    "Sin minister Qu Zhisheng kowtowed to his majesty Khan!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Qu Zhisheng respectfully gave a big gift to Li Shimin and formally apologized on behalf of Gao Chang.


    Li Shimin heard Yan Lang''s voice: "Gaochang blocked the Silk Road for no reason. I sent an army to attack. Do you have any complaints in your heart?"


    "Tian Khan, please be aware that Gaochang blocked the silk road because my father was coerced by yugshi, not Gaochang''s original intention." Qu Zhisheng immediately shifted the responsibility to yugshi. Now the number one opponent in Datang is West Turk, which is a politically correct thing.


    "Yugu Shea is so brave that he even provokes Datang without authorization. Why can''t I stop him?" Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Tell your majesty that although Yugu set is behind the scenes, Gao Chang is willing to drive Yugu set and be an accomplice. His crime is unforgivable." Linghu de Lang, the Minister of rites, said.


    When Qu Zhisheng heard the speech, he could not help shrinking his eyes. Then he stood up straight and said, "although he wanted to coerce my father and Datang into hostility, the father owed the son, and the sinner was willing to be punished on behalf of his father."


    When Li Shimin saw Qu Zhisheng plead guilty frankly, he couldn''t help looking at Qu Zhisheng more and said with satisfaction: "I''ll forgive you for your filial piety. When the Tang army besieged Gaochang, you showed signs of taking the initiative to surrender, so that the two countries could avoid war. I call you general of zuowuwei and Duke of Jincheng county."


    "The sinner kowtowed to the Khan for his kindness!"


    Qu Zhisheng fell to the ground with five emotions in his heart. Loss and happiness are intertwined. What is lost is that the Gaochang Qu Dynasty, which has been inherited for more than 100 years, finally perished. Fortunately, he, the king of the subjugated country, can still preserve, and even falsely take a rich and idle position in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Qu''s ancestors, Gaochang''s defeat is not the fault of Zhisheng." Qu Zhisheng thought silently in his heart, which made him feel better. He got up and nodded slightly to the Mohist son.


    He was escorted all the way to the Tang Dynasty. Instead of being humiliated, he was comforted by Mohist Zi many times. Even now his experience is almost the same as that preset by Mohist Zi.


    "Since then, Gaochang and Datang have become one family, which is a great happy event." Li Shimin said with great joy in his heart.


    "Congratulations, Duke Jincheng! From now on, we will be ministers in the same hall. It''s really gratifying!"


    The ministers expressed their goodwill to Qu Zhisheng, and the whole scene was harmonious.


    Qu Zhisheng also smiled and responded one by one. What he thought in his heart is unknown.


    However, an unorthodox voice suddenly broke the harmony. A censor suddenly came forward and said, "inform your majesty that the minister wants to impeach Mo sacrifice wine and blackmail Jincheng County Duke during the western expedition."


    In an instant, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton and Qu Zhisheng.


    Qu Zhisheng suddenly looked frightened. He had just got rid of the crisis of life and death and could be a rich and noble idle man in Chang''an City, but he didn''t expect to be involved in the court dispute of the Tang Dynasty just a few interest.


    "As your majesty knows, the minister and Marquis Mo have no grudges, no private acceptance, and no extortion." Qu Zhisheng quickly got rid of the relationship.


    Yu Zhining said with justice on his face: "don''t be afraid of the Duke of Jincheng county. This is Chang''an City, the best place at the foot of the son of heaven. Even people with good hands and eyes dare not do anything to you?"


    Qu Zhisheng said decisively: "Don''t talk nonsense, sir. Although Marquis Mo''s firearms warden took the lead in breaking Gaochang city and had a feud with me to destroy the country, public is public and private. On the battlefield, death and injury are inevitable. However, in private, I also have great respect for Marquis Mo''s character. In Gaochang, even under the escort all the way, marquis Mo has no act of extortion. If there is a lie in the next half, please help me Khan cut off Weichen''s head as an example. "


    Hearing that Qu Zhisheng was so determined, Yu Zhining nodded with regret. If Qu Zhisheng was a little fatuous and took the opportunity to revenge and frame Merton, he wouldn''t mind adding fuel to the fire.


    Li Shimin frowned: "Yu Aiqing, since the Duke of Jincheng County said so, it seems that it''s just some shadow catching things, and Merton is not greedy for that little ill gotten money."


    Li Shimin''s words are definitely not for Merton. If Merton wants to make money, his ink skills alone are enough to earn more wealth. He doesn''t look at the money in Qu Zhisheng''s hands or even Gaochang''s


    Other ministers nodded one after another. If they said that other ministers were blackmailing, they might doubt it. However, mojiazi''s wealth can be said to be countless. How can he risk coveting the wealth in Qu Zhisheng''s hands.


    Yu Zhining sneered: "tell your majesty that mojiazi really doesn''t see Gaochang''s wealth, but he can''t refuse Gaochang''s Secret skills. Weichen was ordered to supervise the prohibition order, but found that Mojia village openly violated the prohibition order and secretly brewed wine in Dengzhou."


    "Violation of the prohibition order!" suddenly the Minister of Manchu frowned. The prohibition order had just been promulgated and came into force, but the Mohist son violated it openly, shut down Xie Qianchou openly, and started brewing wine privately.


    Merton explained: "the purpose of the prohibition order is to prevent wine from consuming food and maintain the stability of food prices. The raw material of wine is grapes, not food. Naturally, it is no longer in the ranks of the prohibition order."


    The Minister of Manchu Dynasty thought about it, and the move of mojiazi can really justify itself. Although a wine is suspected of playing a marginal ball, it does not conflict with the purpose of the prohibition order of chaotang.


    Only Li Shimin took a deep look at Merton. The boy proposed a prohibition to him. He thought the Mohist was dignified, but he didn''t expect that there was a back move. He didn''t suffer any loss.


    Yu Zhining was not surprised by this ending, but showed a trace of pride: "however, what really puzzled Weichen was that the secret technique used by Mo Jijiu officially came from Gaochang''s wine secret technique. Since this wine secret technique was not blackmailed from the Duke of Jincheng County, it must have been the booty of Mo Jijiu during the western expedition."


    "Misappropriation of booty!" Yu Zhining''s voice suddenly made an uproar. Yu Zhining tried his best to make Qu Zhisheng deny that he was blackmailed by the Mohists. He was waiting for the Mohists here. You know, misappropriation of booty is much more serious than blackmailing a conquered king.


    The ministers also frowned one after another. Mozi may despise money, but he has no resistance to the secret skill. I''m afraid this wine secret skill was looted by Mozi in Gaochang.


    Qu Zhisheng couldn''t help looking embarrassed. Wen and Wu in the Manchu Dynasty talked about the Mexican family''s misappropriation of spoils. As a victim, his situation was extremely embarrassing.


    "Yes, the wine secret skills are indeed from Gaochang, and I have taken two kinds of secret skills from Gaochang, one is wine secret skills and the other is textile secret skills." Merton did not hide it and directly admitted it.

 Chapter 1167

    Seeing Merton''s crisp recognition, Yu Zhining couldn''t help but rejoice and chase after the victory and said: "please your majesty clearly observe that everything in Gaochang should have been the booty of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mohist son swallowed two kinds of secret skills worth thousands of gold without permission, and please punish your Majesty in accordance with the military law."


    "Fart!" Qin Qiong said angrily. "Since ancient times, the booty has been cattle, sheep, gold, silver and precious stones. It has never been heard that someone regarded secret skills as booty. Such punishment has never been seen since ancient times."


    Many courtiers nodded one after another. Secret skills can be said to be a kind of knowledge, which is valuable to useful people and worthless to useless people. Since ancient times, I''m afraid the booty has not listed knowledge.


    "Anything of value can become booty. The value of wine is not only gold, but even Wanguan. The move of the Mohist school is more guilty than annexing some gold and silver." Yu Zhining said reluctantly.


    Many ministers agreed with Yu Zhining one after another, mainly because of the prohibition order. The value of wine secret skills suddenly increased sharply. How can people not be jealous when such a wealth collection fell into the hands of Mohist Zi.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help frowning. He didn''t expect that the mojiazi was caught by the small tail again, which made him in a dilemma.


    Merton jumped out and said frankly: "it''s also wrong for you to say this. I did take the wine secret skill from Gaochang, but it''s not a booty misappropriation, but an exchange. The raisins that have been popular in the Tang Dynasty recently are the secret skill specially invented by me for Gaochang in exchange for the wine secret skill."


    "Exchange!" all officials were stunned. The Mexican family''s embezzlement of booty was a big taboo. If it was to exchange their own ink skills for Gaochang''s wine secret skills, it would be an equivalent exchange, and naturally it would be innocent.


    "A bunch of nonsense, a little raisin, how can it be compared with the secret skills of wine worth thousands of dollars?" Yu Zhining laughed angrily.


    Merton shook his head and said: "The value is not whether others think it is worth it or not, but whether the two sides are worth it. Taking the secret skill of wine as an example, although Gaochang is famous all over the world, few people are transported to Datang every year due to the long journey. Although the unit price is expensive, they can''t make a lot of money. However, the dry grape is not. It is easy to store and transport. It''s even more valuable. The production method is simple and popular Everyone can make it. Relying on the vast market of Datang, everyone can get rich here. Do you say that in the eyes of Gaochang people, is it the secret skill of raisins or wine with high value? "


    Qu Zhisheng respectfully saluted Merton and said, "there are many secret skills of raisins better than wine. Although Qu is no longer the king of Gaochang, he would like to thank Hou Mo for 100000 Gaochang people."


    The secret skill of wine can only enrich a small number of people, while the secret skill of raisin can enrich everyone in Gaochang. It is natural to see at a glance which is more important.


    The ministers nodded one after another. From the perspective of Gaochang, the secret skill of raisins is much higher than that of wine. Gaochang does not suffer in this exchange, although Merton makes more money by using the secret skill of wine in Datang.


    "Only in Datang can the wine secret technology have the broadest market, and only in Gaochang can the raisin secret technology play its day. This exchange has no losers and is a win-win situation." Merton solemnly said.


    "What about the secret weaving skill? What''s your explanation?" an old imperial censor over half a hundred blurted out.


    Merton stretched out his hand and said, "Mo didn''t want the secret textile skill, but gave it to Majia village."


    The old censor became angry. What is the booty of embezzlement? That''s because it''s valuable. If it''s an unwanted thing, I''m afraid it can''t be called booty. Naturally, it can''t be said to be booty of embezzlement, let alone the textile secret skills of Datang are not inferior to Gaochang.


    Yu Zhining took a deep breath and didn''t expect that the Mohists had cracked his attacks one after another. However, in his opinion, these Mohists'' move was just futile. His third move, the Mohists could not escape anyway.


    Yu Zhining takes a deep breath into the airway: "As far as I know, the mission of Mo Jijiu''s triumphant return is to escort the Duke of Jincheng county to Chang''an city. However, outside the Yumen pass, Mo Jijiu left the Duke of Jincheng county and went to the 800 Li Han sea to pursue the Tibetan remnant army. After returning from the 800 Li Han sea, he once again left the firearm supervisors and soldiers, used the hands of Mojia village to rush back to Chang''an City from Yumen pass overnight and waited for the firearm supervisor outside Chang''an city , Mo sacrificing wine first ignored the military order of Hou Shangshu and left Jincheng County Duke, and then ignored the military order of the Tang Dynasty. The Lord general abandoned the officers and soldiers, and Wei minister impeached Mo sacrificing wine. He repeatedly ignored the military law and was immediately dismissed for investigation. "


    As soon as Yu Zhining''s voice fell, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were quiet.


    It''s not a matter for mojiazi to leave Jincheng county. The real threat is that mojiazi takes the initiative to return to Chang''an city. Everyone knows that the main reason why mojiazi leaves the firearm supervisor to return alone is that Princess Changle is in labor, but she will not leave the army. It''s a fact that Merton and the firearm supervisor separate the soldiers, which is indisputable.


    Changsun Wuji suddenly said something to defend Merton: "Lord Yu is a little picky. According to the military order, the firearms supervisor should have returned as scheduled, but he was secretly attacked by Tubo on the way, which is why he didn''t return. Moreover, the return of ink sacrifice wine is for Princess Changle, otherwise the weak Princess Changle will miss her and will not endure the pain of production."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. He knew this better than anyone. Compared with sticking to the rules, he was more willing to see the deviant behavior of Mozi. Although he left the soldiers, he rushed back to Datang in time to turn Changle and Motan into safety. As an emperor, Merton''s move was naturally wrong, but as a father, Merton''s move made him quite happy.


    "Which soldier doesn''t have a wife and children? If everyone can leave the army and return, where is the military law? Why can our Tang iron cavalry frighten the four sides." Yu Zhining cut the nail and cut the railway.


    Hearing the speech, changsun Wuji sighed: "although Changle is my niece, I am very pleased with the behavior of ink offering wine, but the military law is ruthless. Ink offering wine is indeed a violation of the military law. I hope your majesty will think twice."


    "I inform your majesty that the Mexican sacrifice is not a matter of war, leaving the soldiers behind, but that the army has triumphed, the soldiers have reached Yumen pass, and the safety of the firearm prison is safe. Please let your majesty go lightly for the sake of the deep love of the Mexican Marquis for Princess Changle." a civil official came forward.


    In terms of generals, there are also people who come out more and more: "I inform your majesty that Mo sacrificing wine has broken Gaochang and Tubo, and his military achievements rank first in the western expedition. Please see that for the sake of Mo Hou''s efforts to fight for the country, his merits and demerits are equal."


    Soon one official after another said that it was strange that although they all pleaded for Merton, none of them was not guilty of Merton.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin frowned and said to Merton, "Merton, what excuse do you have?"


    In Li Shimin''s opinion, the third accusation Merton must be able to deal with it skillfully, and he pushed the boat along the water to expose it.


    However, what he didn''t expect was that Merton didn''t have the slightest excuse, but directly nodded and said, "Weichen has nothing to say."


    Immediately, all the ministers looked at Merton with complex eyes. Naturally, they knew that Li Shimin could not blame Merton for this, but Merton did not hesitate to shoulder all the blame.


    "Please act impartially!" Yu Zhining took the opportunity to advise.


    Other ministers were silent, but this also represented an attitude. After all, Merton''s mistake was irrefutable.


    "Well, for his own sake, firearm warden offered wine to Morton. He left the soldiers and soldiers of the whole army outside the Yumen pass thousands of miles away and returned to Beijing alone. In order to neglect his duty, Morton is now exempted from the duty of offering wine to the Imperial College. His merits and demerits will be decided after the western expedition." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Yu Zhining bowed down in the tunnel and couldn''t help humming in his heart. You think the firearm prison is in your bag, but you don''t know how many forces in the court are staring at the first army in the world. The firearm prison is now an ownerless thing. Do you still think you can protect it? "

 Chapter 1168

    "It''s all my fault. If my husband didn''t worry about my concubine, how could he put down the whole army and rush back to Chang''an city." Princess Changle said with a guilty face in the Mo house.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it has nothing to do with you. I promised to come back before you gave birth. Unexpectedly, there was an accident of Tubo ambush. Since ancient times, my family and country have been in a dilemma. I''m lucky that I can not only lead the firearms prison to win and return to Datang safely, but also rush back to Chang''an City in time."


    "No, my husband has been punished because of my concubine. I''ll go and plead with my father." Changle suddenly got up and said firmly on his face.


    Merton quickly grabbed her and said with a bitter smile: "however, it is a taboo in the art of war to leave the army for the general. If you are wrong, you are wrong. You should be punished. Besides, my husband has just been running for more than half a year. Now his majesty has relieved me of my official post and takes the opportunity to accompany you."


    Princess Changle stopped and said coldly, "don''t give a sacrifice to the firearm supervisor, so as not to go to the battlefield again in the future and make my concubine worry day and night."


    In Princess Changle''s opinion, the firearms warden''s sacrifice is a military duty. I don''t know when I will be sent to the battlefield. The sword has no eyes on the battlefield. I''m afraid I won''t be so lucky in case of another crisis such as Tubo ambush the firearms warden. Don''t forget this military duty.


    However, Princess Changle didn''t know that in her opinion, the dangerous military duty was a great opportunity to prosper in the eyes of many people. It was the most powerful firearms supervisor in the world. Who wanted to command this thousand person army and control the gunpowder, and the military achievements in the future would not be readily available.


    For a while, there was an endless stream of literary ministers and military generals who wanted to seek the position of firearms supervisor and wine sacrifice, which annoyed Li Shimin.


    "Yu Zhining is bad for me." Li Shimin looked at the memorials piled up in front of him and said with hatred.


    "Why did your majesty say that?" empress Chang Sun said softly. Although it was gratifying for them to come back thousands of miles to be parents when Princess Changle was about to give birth, from the perspective of military law, Mozi really left the soldiers and violated the military law, otherwise she would have pleaded for Merton.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I''m not accusing Yu Zhining of Yan''s direct admonition, but Yu Zhining, although it''s reasonable, let Merton, a slippery catfish escape."


    "Catfish? That''s my son-in-law!" the eldest grandson empress whitened Li Shimin''s eyes.


    Li Shimin smiled awkwardly: "The reason why I trapped Merton in officialdom is based on the catfish effect, just as I threw him into the Imperial College. Guanyin maidservant, have you ever found that Merton took charge of the Mohist School in recent years, the whole Mohist school has developed rapidly. Although it has provoked a hundred schools of thought to contend and go hand in hand, it is obvious that the development speed of Mohist school is much faster than the other hundred schools. If I don''t trap Merton in officialdom, Mohist school is no longer a troublemaker The catfish stirred the rain, but grew into a whale that ate everything. "


    He managed to bring Mohist School into officialdom and stabilize the pattern of a hundred schools. Now that Merton is dismissed, he will certainly try his best to run Mohist village. I''m afraid the situation of a hundred schools of thought contending will soon become a dominant one, which is not what Li Shimin wants to see.


    "Then let officer Morton return to his original post!" the eldest grandson frowned.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "it''s late. Merton pleaded guilty in the court. The court ministers heard it with their own ears. If they don''t punish, I''m afraid they won''t accept it."


    "For the sake of the present, first find a stable person to temporarily take the post of firearms supervisor and wine sacrifice." empress Chang sun thought.


    Li Shimin shook his head slightly. Gunpowder is the biggest secret of the Tang Dynasty. If more people know it, there will be more possibility of leakage. Moreover, if you want to be proficient in gunpowder, I''m afraid it must be Mohist, and it won''t help to change others.


    "Your Majesty, don''t pay attention to these troubles. I have a happy event to discuss with your majesty. Today, Wuji went to the palace to visit the palace and talked about the marriage between Chong''er and Gao Yang!" the eldest Sun Queen''s voice changed.


    Li Shimin sighed a little: "it''s hard to be Chong''er these years. They''ve been waiting for so many years. Now Gaoyang is sixteen. It''s time for them to get married."


    "In that case, the concubine replied to my brother and let the bitter mandarin ducks get married at the end of the year!" the eldest Sun Queen said with a smile.


    Li Shimin nodded and agreed, "it''s up to you. We must do it."


    Empress Chang sun nodded, and then walked away.


    After empress Chang Sun left, Li Shimin took out one of the memorials piled up in front of him. This is a memorial recommending the new firearm supervisor to sacrifice wine, but the recommended candidate is Chang sun Chong.


    In the eyes of the royal family, it was naturally Princess Changle who suffered the most damage to her reputation. However, in fact, there was another victim, Chang sun Chong.


    Although the royal family, in order to compensate Chang sun Chong, ignored the wave of voluntariness of both parties and forcibly pointed out that Chang sun Chong and Princess Gaoyang were still wronged.


    Now, although this memorial is played by other officials, Li Shimin understands that it must be inspired by Chang sun Wuji. While asking empress Chang sun to say about the marriage between Chang sun Chong and Princess Gaoyang, Chang sun Wuji asks people to write a memorial to seek an official position for Chang sun Chong, just to seek a future for Chang sun Chong. Obviously, firearms have been imprisoned in Chang sun Chong''s eyes.


    Moreover, Chang sun Chong and the Mo family are similar in age. They are also five grade officials with promising prospects. They are also Royal relatives and relatives. They are deeply trusted by Li Shimin and are the best candidate to replace Merton anyway.


    "I''ll compensate you this time. I hope you won''t live up to my expectations." Li Shimin thought for a long time and waved a big hand on the memorial.


    However, Li Shimin did not hand over all the firearms supervision to Chang sun Chong, but divided the firearms supervision into firearms supervision and firearms army. The firearms supervision was responsible for continuing to develop gunpowder weapons, and the famous firearms army was handed over to Chang sun Chong.


    Soon, the news that the firearm prison was divided into two, Chang sun Chong got the firearm army, which came from the government and the public. Suddenly, everyone was in an uproar.


    "After thinking about it, I''m afraid Chang sun Chong is indeed the best candidate." many people nodded. Few people in the Tang Dynasty can compare with Mohist Zi, and Chang sun Chong''s qualifications and status are rare.


    "Your Majesty divided the firearm prison into two, and Chang sun Chong got the firearm army, and I''m afraid the position of firearm supervisor for offering wine is still reserved for the Mohist son." another official analyzed.


    "It''s a pity that no matter how well mojiazi''s sacrificial wine is made, he can only make wedding clothes for Chang sun Chong." a literary minister sighed.


    "Chang sun Chong is a civil servant, so he can''t lead soldiers to fight." many generals complained that the firearms army is the most powerful army and should belong to the military, but it fell into the hands of civil servants.


    "The Mohists didn''t practice martial arts, and they didn''t lead the firearms prison to become famous all over the world." Wen Chen supported Chang sun Chong one after another.


    A military general Leng hum said, "how can it be compared? The son of Mohism was born in Mohism. Adhering to Mohist attack is a unique skill of Mohism. As for Chang sun Chong, it''s not necessarily."


    Wen Chen said carelessly, "so what? With gunpowder, who is the enemy in the world."


    All of a sudden, everyone''s breath stagnated. In the first World War of the western expedition, gunpowder was brilliant. Even the Mohist who did not know the martial arts could lead the firearm supervisor to defeat 5000 Tubo cavalry. With the emergence of gunpowder, even those who had no strength to bind chickens could ignite gunpowder. Personal bravery is no longer the factor determining the war, and the glory of generals is coming to an end.

 Chapter 1169

    "Firearm general!"


    A feeling of exaltation upon fulfillment of the long sun Chong''s appointment as general of the firearms in the long Sun Fu Palace, the whole long sun house suddenly felt proud and proud. Although the firearms army had only a few thousand people, it was the battle power world Gong Ying''s hand to explain: "I think it is the royal highness of the princess who is getting married soon, and is unable to leave Changan City, so this has not informed the princess."


    Princess Gaoyang suddenly lost her face. As a person in the palace, she is like a bird in a cage. Who doesn''t want to travel outside the palace? As a princess, there are only two ways to leave the palace. One is to travel with Li Shimin, and the other is to marry.


    "Once the palace is married, no one will restrict the freedom of the palace." Princess Gaoyang swore secretly when she looked at the sky blocked by the high wall.

 Chapter 1170

    "Your Majesty is lucky to be in the Jiucheng palace. This time, all the guards should not be slack and should not let your Majesty''s safety slip." Xi Junmai, sitting in the main position in the camp of the guards, ordered solemnly.


    During Li Shimin''s trip to Jiucheng palace, Xi Junmai was fully responsible for Li Shimin''s safety. As usual, Xi Junmai was responsible for the defense of the whole Jiucheng palace.


    "I will obey!"


    A crowd of Zhonglang will suddenly shout.


    Xi Junmai saw a group of Zhonglang generals declare their positions one after another. He couldn''t help smiling with satisfaction. Then he began to arrange the defense areas of various generals.


    "I will personally protect your Majesty''s safety. Qin Huaiyu is in charge of the 10% palace and Cheng Chumo is in charge of the 20% Palace............................." Xi Junmai ordered one by one.


    Jiucheng palace means Jiuchong or Jiucheng. The layout of the palace is basically the same. It happens that the houses of each general are divided according to this.


    "The end will be ordered!"


    Qin Huaiyu and others took orders one by one. Soon, all the palaces had been arranged, followed by 90% outside the palace, which was also the focus of defense. Each general needed to guard and patrol in turn.


    "........................., ashner''s association rate, you are responsible for patrolling outside the palace at Mao hour every day." Xi Junmai finally ordered a Hu general.


    "I will obey!" ashner''s association rate arched his hands, but a trace of resentment flashed on his drooping face. From midnight to Mao, it was late at night, when it was the darkest and people were most sleepy. Ashner''s association rate assigned the hardest work. This phenomenon is normal. Among the generals, Tang will often be able to assign the easiest work, The dirty work and hard work are often undertaken by Hu generals. Although everyone is harmonious in the name of Tian Khan, the dispute between Tang generals and Hu generals is obvious in private.


    After the end of the military discussion, ashner''s association rate ranked last and walked out of the military account. Looking at the departing generals in front, he couldn''t help laughing. Although he was assigned to the hardest work, he hit his heart. Late at night, it was a good time for a surprise attack.


    ASHNA''s association rate fell behind quietly. When people left the military camp without paying attention, he quickly came to a secret manor outside Chang''an city. The manor covers a large area, but its style is very different from that of the Tang Dynasty. Instead, it is covered with felt tents and has a strong Turkic style. This is the outer house of heluohu, the son of Tuli Khan.


    ASHNA''s association rate came to a luxurious felt tent in the center, opened the door curtain and went in. He laughed loudly and said, "my good nephew, Li Shimin, has traveled to 90% palace. The opportunity for the restoration of the Turkic Khanate is coming."


    In the felt tent, a Turkic youth of about 20 years old suddenly rose up and showed ecstasy on his face. This person is the Heluo Uighur. He was not willing to take this adventure. However, he is the Turkic royal family and the nominal heir of the Turkic Khanate. The Tang Dynasty is weakening his tribe intentionally or unintentionally. Now the Heluo Uighur only has the name of Khan but has no real power, This made him extremely dissatisfied with Li Shimin. He Luohu was famous and ASHNA''s association rate was strong. In addition, Du and Yugu set up a match, which immediately matched ASHNA''s association rate and conspired against him.


    "Well, Li Shimin has finally left the palace!" he Luohu said excitedly. Li Shimin is in the palace, and they don''t have the slightest chance. Traveling to Jiucheng palace is the weakest time in the protection around Li Shimin.


    However, after the excitement, he Luohu was a little confused: "uncle, this is almost certain."


    Although the idea of Turkic restoration is great, the risk is also great. He Luohu inherited the position of his father Tuli Khan. In Datang, it is already a top-notch existence, and there are many Turkic generals under its command. It can be said that it has sprung up.


    If the rebellion succeeds, it''s OK. If they fail, they will lose everything, even their heads. They are used to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, they are not willing to lose all this.


    "Don''t worry. My uncle has secretly summoned many Turkic warriors who are willing to restore the country. Each of them is one of the best experts, and they can certainly kill Li Shimin and Mohist Zi at one stroke." ASHNA''s association rate patted his chest and promised that although Li Shimin was gentle with the Turks, soon after the Turks lost the country, many people naturally missed the glory of the Turks in the past, Unwilling to submit to the Tang Dynasty, many Turks quietly responded with the lead of ASHNA''s association rate.


    "Kill the Mo family? Why do we have to kill the Mo family in two ways? We have taken a great risk to kill Li Shimin. If we divide troops to kill the Mo family again, wouldn''t we take double the risk?" he Luohu frowned. In his opinion, killing Li Shimin with all his strength and leaving the Tang Dynasty without a leader can make the Turks recover smoothly. Dividing troops to kill Mohists is a bit of an extraneous affair and takes a lot of risks out of thin air.


    ASHNA, the leader of the association, sneered: "my nephew, you are the son of Tuli Khan. Naturally, you can respond to everything. If I want to stand firm on the grassland, I must get the support of Yugu set, and the condition of Yugu set is to assassinate the MOH family.


    Of course, these words can''t be said to heluoming. ASHNA''s association rate thought about it and said: "Killing Li Shimin is naturally the most important thing, but Mohist is also the one who must be killed, because his existence is the biggest threat to the grassland, and his gunpowder is the biggest threat to the cavalry. Even if we kill Li Shimin and return to the grassland to recover the country, how can the Tang Dynasty stop and rest? One day, Mohist comes to avenge Li Shimin with gunpowder. What can we do to stop him ¡£¡±


    He Luohu was immediately surprised. He got more news in the Tang Dynasty. He naturally knew how powerful gunpowder was, and he knew the importance of Mohism. Only by killing Li Shimin could he make the Tang Dynasty headless and buy time for the restoration of the Turks. Only by killing Mohism could he interrupt the momentum of the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, Only after the restoration of the country can Turks survive.


    "Then I''m afraid we need more Turkic warriors to achieve full success in a war." he Luohu took a deep breath. This time, the Mohist son and Li Shimin will be in the Jiucheng palace, which is the best opportunity to solve the Turkic threat at one fell swoop.


    "I will invite more Turkic warriors. This assassination will be successful. We are eagles on the grassland. How can we be trapped in this high wall? ASHNA''s family is destined to be proud of the grassland and shed the shame of Jieli Khan, my Heluo Uighur Khan." ASHNA''s association rate urged vigorously.


    "Heluo Uighur Khan?" Heluo Uighur''s blood was boiling at the thought of the success of the assassination. He could dominate the grassland like his uncle wanted to set up a valley. At that time, the East and West Turks belong to ASHNA''s family, so he could certainly reproduce his grandfather''s heroic style of beginning to finish Khan and make the Tang Dynasty bow down and become a minister.


    "For the sake of Turks, let my uncle and nephew gamble today." ASHNA solemnly said


    "For Turks!" a desperate frenzy appeared on heluohu''s face.

 Chapter 1171

    Jiucheng palace!


    Under the sunshine, the whole body is warm, the autumn wind blows the long hair slightly, the yellow leaves fall on the water, and the water rolls the yellow leaves down the river. Coupled with the exquisite layout of 90% palace, it is simply beautiful. It is indeed a rare resort.


    Merton and Princess Changle led Mosha walking through the Jiucheng palace with yellow leaves all over the ground. From time to time, happy laughter came from time to time. In terms of the beautiful scenery, the Mohist children are green in winter. However, in terms of the autumn scenery, the Mohist village, which lacks fallen leaves, has a little less charm than the Jiucheng palace, Even Merton, who was used to the beauty of later generations, had to admit that Jiucheng palace was indeed no inferior to other palaces of later generations.


    Princess Changle, who finally finished her confinement, was invited by Li Shimin and empress changsun to visit Jiucheng palace. Naturally, she was happy to go.


    Of course, Merton and Princess Changle are invited to travel, which naturally means to appease Merton. Li Shimin has just divided Merton''s firearms prison into two and stripped the world-famous firearms army from Chang sun Chong. Naturally, he wants to comfort Merton.


    "Father, Queen Mother!" Princess Changle said in a charming voice.


    A family of four stepped on the shady path covered with yellow leaves and came to the main hall of Jiucheng palace, Jiuchong palace. They saw Li Shimin and empress Chang sun sitting in the pavilion chatting. The princesses of Jinyang and Xincheng were playing around, looking leisurely.


    "Here comes Changle?"


    Looking at the arrival of Changle, empress changsun couldn''t help showing a trace of love.


    "Is the mother still healthy?" Princess Changle asked, reaching forward to feel the pulse for the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang sun nodded and said, "Jiucheng palace mountain has beautiful water and fresh air. It is the most nourishing. The mother feels much better."


    The reason why Li Shimin often travels to Jiucheng palace is not only that he has been bored in the palace, but also largely because of the condition of empress changsun. Although the Qinglong real medicine saved empress changsun''s illness, the root cause of Qi disease still exists and needs to rest, and Jiucheng palace is the most home resort.


    Princess Changle carefully checked the body of empress changsun. After confirming that it was correct, she was a little relieved. She held mertan and said considerate words with empress changsun.


    Mosha had already played with Princess Jinyang and Princess Xincheng. All that was left was Li Shimin and Merton, the son-in-law of Weng.


    "Your Majesty is in good health!" since ancient times, Weng''s son-in-law had nothing to say when he met, so Merton had no choice but to find a word.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help rolling his eyes. Isn''t this the original words of Princess Changle''s greeting to empress changsun just now? The boy has moved all over. There''s nothing to say. He just wants to be angry. At the thought of Merton coming back all the way to accompany his daughter to give birth, he dismissed his official position and made Merton''s old rival changsun Chong feel guilty.


    "I''m in good health," Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Oh!" Merton nodded, and the scene fell into embarrassment again.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath, calmed his mood, got up and said proudly, "I''ve relieved you of your post of firearms supervisor and wine sacrifice. You can have complaints in your heart."


    Merton looked disgusted and said, "firearms are the weapons of war. My Mohist family has always loved peace and advocated non attack. Your majesty has relieved Wei Chen of the post of firearms supervisor and wine sacrifice. He is with Wei Chen''s heart. Wei Chen can devote himself to studying ink technology and let the Mohist family revive as soon as possible."


    The two sons-in-law were more arrogant than each other. After only two words, they felt the tip of the needle to the wheat awn. The scene was full of a strong smell of gunpowder.


    As soon as Li Shimin pulled out the corner of his mouth, Merton said that he was awe inspiring. However, who in the world doesn''t know that the Mohist family preached non aggression. In fact, in the spring and autumn and Warring States periods, as long as there was a war, the Mohist family ran faster than anyone else, and others went to rub the rice, while the Mohist School rubbed the war, otherwise where did the rich war concept of the Mohist school come from.


    Even now, in the recent wars of Datang, Mozi advocated that if not everyone knew that he was a Mozi, he would certainly think he was a military madman.


    Princess Changle couldn''t help sighing. The couple had just got along for a while, but they began to fight each other again.


    "Father emperor, why didn''t you see the child slave? He likes to play most." Princess Changle quickly stepped forward to change the subject in order to avoid the deadlock between the two enemies.


    During the trip to Jiucheng palace, all their daughters came, but the prince didn''t see one. Li Chengqian was left in Chang''an City by Li Shimin to supervise the country and exercise his ability to deal with political affairs. In order to include the local chronicles, Li Tai ran all over the world and rarely returned to Chang''an city. The three brothers were with empress Li Zhichang and empress sun. It''s strange that he didn''t see Li Zhi this time.


    "Oh! The young slave didn''t feel well before. The father asked him to come back after he was well. I think it''s only a few days." Li Shimin was wrong and immediately took the slope to the donkey road.


    The tacit understanding of the people switched the topic to Li Zhi, and the whole jiuzhong palace immediately restored a harmonious family happiness.


    "Tomorrow, the king of Jin will visit Jiucheng palace!"


    Outside 90% of the palace, ashner''s association rate received the secret news from the heluohu, and he was overjoyed.


    Li Shimin and mojiazi were escorted into the Jiucheng Palace by the forbidden guards. Ashner''s association rate did not find any chance. Li Zhi came from outside the palace and had a respected status. They could easily deceive the Palace door by holding Li Zhi, or even come to Li Shimin unimpeded. At that time, they would surely kill Li Shimin and mojiazi at one fell swoop, He made great contributions to the Turks.


    Moreover, in order to be safe, he did not hesitate to take risks to win over hundreds of Turkic warriors, which was twice as many as his original plan of more than 40 people. Of course, these people were prepared for mojiazi.


    Just like the news from ludongzan, it''s hard to pay too much attention to Mozi. This time, ASHNA''s association rate raised the power of assassinating Mozi to the level comparable to the heavily guarded Li Shimin, so he didn''t believe that Mozi could create another miracle.


    "This time, the Mohist must die." ashner''s Association roared in his heart.


    According to the requirements of Yugu Sheh, only by assassinating mojiazi can he obtain the commitment of Western Turks. After all, there will be no more mojiazi after the death of one emperor and the next emperor in Datang.


    With the passage of time, ashner''s association rate appeared calm and took turns step by step, waiting for the opportunity and the news of Li Zhi''s arrival.


    Outside Jiucheng palace, the autumn night was extremely cold. ASHNA''s association rate couldn''t help shivering. Originally, this cold was nothing on the grassland, but after more than ten years of living in dignity and excellence in Datang, he has gradually lost the inherent cold resistance of Turks.


    "General, it''s windy!" ashner led his confidant Mo Yun with a heavy face.


    I saw the treetops dancing in the air and the fallen leaves flying all over the sky. I don''t know when 90% of the people outside the palace have been killed by the cold wind.

 Chapter 1172

    "King Jin, the wind is blowing!"


    In the Imperial City, the guard frowned when he saw the howling cold wind.


    "What should I do? I have an appointment with my father to go out of the palace on the fourth watch. If there is no accident, I can reach Jiucheng palace tonight." Li Zhi frowned.


    About 300 miles from Chang''an city to Jiucheng palace, all of them have been paved with straight brick roads. There are post stations along the way. Just change the horses quickly. Even if Li Zhi is well treated, it is easy to March three hundred miles a day. If he is fast, Li Zhi may be able to have dinner with his father and mother tonight.


    "Your Highness, think twice! Your body has just recovered and is still very weak. It''s not suitable to travel in windy weather. If your condition repeats, we can''t afford it!" the guard quickly dissuaded.


    "No, I have made an appointment with my father. I will arrive at Jiucheng palace tonight. If I break the appointment and let my father wait, wouldn''t it be a great unfilial." Li Zhi''s young face showed a trace of firmness.


    The reason why Li Zhi can get the favor of Li Shimin and the eldest grandson queen is not only his weak character and cute, but also his filial piety. Ask which parents in the world can refuse filial piety. In addition, Li Tai often runs without shadow, Li Zhi is naturally favored alone.


    "Your Highness, it''s the greatest filial piety to your parents to take care of your body. If your Highness the king of Jin drives on in the strong wind, wouldn''t it worry your majesty if he suffers from the cold." a king of Jin reads and advises. When he hears his tone, he must be a Confucian.


    "What the waiter said is very true. If the royal highness of Jin was affected by the wind cold, wouldn''t it be more inappropriate to infect the Queen''s mother." the accompanying imperial doctor also suggested that since the rise of doctors, the theory of wind cold infection has been confirmed. The Queen''s mother is well-known all over the world, and can''t bear any risks to avoid further Qi diseases, This time, Li Zhi didn''t follow the people to Jiucheng palace. He was worried that Li Zhi would infect empress Chang sun.


    Hearing the suggestions of Confucianism and doctors, Li Zhi no longer insisted and sighed: "then only the children and ministers bear the name of breaking an appointment. Don''t let the father worry and let the mother risk getting sick."


    "Your Highness the king of Jin is benevolent and filial." a group of attendants of the king of Jin praised one after another.


    Li Zhi said firmly, "but don''t let your father and Emperor wait for a long time. Once the wind stops, start immediately. Even if you are on your way all night, you should get to Jiucheng palace in the shortest time."


    "Yes! Your Highness the king of Jin!" the people took orders in unison, waited for the wind to stop, and then set out.


    However, until dawn, there was still a strong wind in the sky. It didn''t stop until noon. Without hesitation, Li Zhi immediately ordered to go on his way.


    Along the way, the king of Jin''s motorcade sped up the whip and consumed time bit by bit. Looking at the sun that had begun to tilt westward, Li Zhi couldn''t help sighing. The strong wind delayed most of the day, and the road was very slow at night. It would be nice to get to Jiucheng Palace tomorrow morning.


    Sure enough, as Li Zhi expected, although the king of Jin''s team made every effort to hurry, they were able to catch half the journey when they should have arrived at the 90% palace.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "General Hui, there is no convoy of his Highness the king of Jin." Mo Yun hurried to report.


    Watching the night fall, ashner''s association rate was burning with anxiety. It was clear that the time agreed by his Highness the king of Jin had passed, but he didn''t see the shadow of the team at all.


    Ashner''s association rate was anxious in his heart, but he said quietly on his face: "don''t panic. I think it must be the wind today that delayed the trip. Everyone was supposed to be on standby."


    A group of Turkic soldiers endured their anxiety and continued to wait patiently. However, until late at night, there was still no news.


    They realized that there was something wrong with the king of Jin''s motorcade. They didn''t know whether they didn''t start from Chang''an City on time or didn''t start at all, which made the Turkic soldiers think a little more, and the whole team became restless again.


    "Did he Luohu rebel and deliberately send false news from Chang''an!" Mo Yun guessed in a low voice.


    ASHNA''s association rate shook his head and said, "it''s impossible. If he Luohu rebelled, we can''t stand there safely."


    "It seems that his Highness the king of Jin has been delayed because of the wind. Why don''t we postpone this action until his Highness the king of Jin arrives." Mo Yun frowned.


    Without the cover of King Li Zhi of the Jin Dynasty, their chances of success would be greatly reduced and their chances of success would be small. There is really no need to take this risk.


    ASHNA''s association rate shook his head. He believed that he Luohu would not rebel. After all, he was attracted by the position of Khan. However, his subordinates were not necessarily. In order to improve his chances of winning, he temporarily recruited many Turkic soldiers and had fully disclosed the plan. Everyone already knew the plan of the rebellion. It would be easy to say if the king of Jin came early, if he continued to delay for a few days, There is no guarantee that someone will report. Once the assassination plan is exposed, they will all be dead.


    "Although the king of Jin didn''t arrive as scheduled, we must not give up this action." ASHNA''s association rate firmly said that if it was late, it would change. He didn''t dare to delay it.


    "The general means a strong attack?" Mo Yun frowned. In his opinion, ashner''s association rate must be trying to deceive the Palace door and prepare for a strong attack. However, they don''t have siege weapons. A strong attack may be a narrow escape, and it will disturb Li Shimin. The possibility of successful assassination is very small.


    A group of Turkic soldiers suddenly had a riot. They were tempted by the reward of ASHNA''s association rate. After the assassination, they wanted to go back to the grassland to enjoy glory and wealth, not to die.


    Ashner''s association rate was strange. He smiled and said, "how can I be a fool and let you attack the palace gate? I have another clever plan."


    A group of Turkic soldiers were surprised to see ASHNA''s association rate. Now they have cheated to open the city gate and failed. There is no hope of a strong attack. How can they successfully enter the 90% palace and complete the assassination mission.


    "Climb over the wall and enter!" ashner said proudly.


    Ashner''s association rate looked back, glancing over the tall palace gate and focusing on the Jiucheng palace wall in the distance. Jiucheng palace was built on the mountain. Except that the palace gate was a flat road, all the others were dense forests, enough to cover up their tracks.


    A group of Turkic soldiers suddenly brightened their eyes. They avoided the gate of Jiucheng palace and climbed over the wall from the side. On the contrary, they were more hidden and their chances of success increased greatly.


    At present, a group of Turkic soldiers began to secretly build ladders. Soon, they had built a ladder enough to climb over the city wall.


    ASHNA''s association rate looked at hundreds of Turkic warriors behind him. He couldn''t help being heroic and said, "gentlemen, the restoration of Turkic state is today. We will all be heroes of rebuilding Turks. This war will be a death battle."


    "Dead war!" a crowd of Turkic soldiers shouted in a low voice with a trace of enthusiasm on their faces.


    ASHNA took a deep breath, took the lead in stepping on the ladder, climbed over the wall and entered the palace. One by one, the Turkic soldiers easily climbed over the wall.


    Ninety percent of the palace is broken!

 Chapter 1173

    Although Jiucheng palace is an important place for the royal family, it has never been plagued by swords since its completion. Although Xi Junmai has strict orders, the guards of each palace are only routine.


    ASHNA''s association rate climbed over the wall without alerting any guards. A group of Turkic soldiers quietly touched the five fold palace.


    It was not until he came near the five fold palace that he attracted the guard''s attention.


    "Who?" the general who guarded the five fold palace shouted, and all the guards immediately took up arms to guard.


    When he was found, Mo Yun was surprised and quickly turned around and said, "general, what should I do?"


    Ashner''s association rate smiled and said, "what to do, naturally go over!"


    At that moment, ashner''s association rate laughed and more and more people came out: "General Liu, you''re all right."


    Seeing that it was ashner''s association rate, the other general was stunned. With a wave of his hand, he asked a group of soldiers to lay down their weapons and asked, "why is general ashner here? Aren''t you patrolling outside the palace?"


    Although general Liu was curious about the presence of ASHNA''s association rate here, he never thought that the Tang Dynasty was at the height of the sun and Turks dared to rebel. In addition, ASHNA''s association rate was arranged in advance for today''s assassination, but it had already been flattered and deliberately made friends with a group of rebellious generals. Their private friends were not bad.


    Ashner''s association rate explained with a unchanged face: "my little brother was patrolling outside the palace. He just met his Highness the king of Jin and asked for a job to guide the king of Jin. After this is not over, he came to talk to brother Liu about the past. How brother Liu is not welcome."


    General Liu couldn''t help smiling. He knew that ashner''s association was not smooth, and he didn''t doubt his idea of trying to please his Highness the king of Jin.


    "I''m very glad that general ashner can come. Please!" General Liu was quite proud and hugged his fist.


    "Ah!" General Liu suddenly screamed. What he waited for was not a hug of ashner''s association rate, but a cold knife. Until he felt boundless pain, the pride on General Liu''s face slowly turned into panic.


    "You want to stab the king." at this time, General Liu realized that ashner''s association rate should not have appeared in the 90% palace, but he came to the five fold palace. I''m afraid he didn''t lead the way for the king of Jin, but wanted to assassinate Li Shimin.


    "You guessed right. It''s time to repay Li Shimin''s humiliation to the Turks today." ASHNA''s association rate said with a grim smile.


    Hearing the scream of his men, General Liu opened his eyes and died in peace. If he hadn''t been careless and believed the nonsense of ashner''s association rate, his men would have put down their weapons for slaughter.


    "Kill!"


    Moyun held bows and arrows, and there was no false attack. One by one, the guards of the five heavy palaces fell under the bows and arrows. Under the careless calculation, the guards of the five heavy palaces suffered heavy losses. Even if there was sporadic resistance, they were killed by Moyun with bows and arrows one by one. The divine archers who once shocked the grassland showed their power again.


    "Well done!" ASHNA Association saw Mo Yun''s great power, nodded with satisfaction, waved his big hand, and a group of Turkic rebels began to attack the Liuzhong palace.


    The battle of the five fold palace ended quickly, but there was still a lot of noise. The nearby six fold palace began to be vigilant, but it didn''t act rashly because it couldn''t touch the situation.


    Ashner''s association rate swaggered directly to the Liuzhong Palace this time. When he was far away, he shouted, "90% of the palace has been mixed with thieves. We were ordered to search. There may be something abnormal in the Liuzhong palace."


    The general guarding the sixth fold palace saw that ashner was in association with Tang soldiers and soldiers. He didn''t doubt it, but shook his head and replied, "there is no abnormality in the sixth fold palace, but there is a sound from the fifth fold palace."


    "That''s good. Don''t be careless. Once you find the enemy, give an alarm immediately." ashner said with a similar association rate.


    Then he waved his big hand and shot arrows and rain at Liuzhong palace. In an instant, the officers and soldiers of Liuzhong palace were seriously killed and injured.


    "You are the rogue officials and thieves." the sixth palace keeper shouted angrily.


    However, what answered them was the overwhelming attack of the Turkic rebels, and the defense line of the sixth palace was broken again. Then, the ASHNA association rate used the same method to approach the seventh palace with the armor of the Tang army and broke the defense line of the seventh palace again.


    "The front is the eight fold palace and the nine fold palace. The Mohist school is in the eight fold palace, and Li Shimin is in the nine fold palace. As long as you kill two people, our road to national recovery is in front of us." ASHNA''s association rate encouraged him.


    Suddenly, all the Turkic rebels were crazy. Although they had no worries about food and clothing and enjoyed Yonghua wealth in Chang''an City, the customs here were very different from the grassland, which made them very uncomfortable. They had long wanted to return to the grassland, which was also the reason why they followed ASHNA''s association rate.


    "This battle must be decided quickly. Mo Yun, you lead half of the troops to the Bazhong palace to kill the mojiazi. The rest of the troops follow our general to kill the dog emperor." ashner''s association rate looked at the palace guards disturbed by the army collapse. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Tang army is not weak at all. The Turkic rebels only occupied the power of sneak attack. If you can''t make a quick decision, I''m afraid the more delay, the more unfavorable the situation will be to them.


    "Yes!" Mo Yun nodded his head and immediately led his men and horses to the eight fold palace.


    "Stop, or there will be no amnesty!" shouted the guard General of the eight fold palace in a cold voice. The eight fold palace is already the important place of the ninety percent palace. Ordinary people can''t get to the ninety percent Palace at all. This is also the reason why the guard General of the eight fold palace, although he doesn''t know who to know, has the courage to shout that there is no amnesty.


    However, it was a heavy arrow that ran through the guard''s chest. Mo Yun retracted his bow and said with a sneer. The general was very smart and hid in the dark. However, he didn''t know that he had been exposed as soon as he made a sound. This is the strength of the grassland God archer. Listen to the sound and identify the position.


    "Kill!" Moyun led the Turkic rebels to kill, and the garrison of the Bazhong palace was headless. Coupled with the threat of Moyun, a marksman, he immediately retreated.


    "What''s the matter?" the loud noise immediately alerted Princess Changle and Merton.


    "Tell the princess''s son-in-law that there are rebels attacking the Bazhong palace, and ask the princess''s son-in-law to leave quickly with the little princess and the little marquis." outside the palace, Liu e hurried.


    "Rebels!" Merton was suddenly surprised, and the memory of the rebellion in Jiucheng palace immediately came to his mind. This was a rebellion to assassinate Li Shimin. It is reasonable to say that the eight fold palace and the nine fold Palace are next to each other. These rebels will certainly attack the nine fold palace with all their strength, but they ran to the eight fold palace again, obviously for him.


    Merton couldn''t help laughing bitterly. He didn''t expect that in addition to Tubo, even Turks would kill him.


    "Changle, you and liu''e go first with Martha and mertan. The rebels are here to kill me." Merton waved his hand, handed the Martha in his hand to liu''e and signaled them to leave.


    "Husband? You don''t know martial arts. How can you stop the rebels!" Princess Changle said anxiously.


    Merton showed a trace of self-confidence and said, "my husband is the son of the MOH family. What''s rare to live with me? I''ll calm down the rebels and save your majesty. You retreat immediately. You can''t appear until the rebellion subsides."


    Princess Changle was also determined. As soon as she bit her silver teeth, she immediately left with her son and daughter. In case Merton died, they would be the only bones and blood of the Mohists.

 Chapter 1174

    In the eight fold palace, although the defenders have been on guard, they still retreat under the attack of Moyun, a divine archer.


    "Tell me, where is the Mohist school?" Mo Yun threatened a wounded forbidden guard with a bow and arrow.


    "Don''t think!" the wounded guard looked at him with hatred, wearing the same clothes, but very different from the faces of the Tang people. At this time, they suddenly realized that the rebels were Turks.


    "You are very backbone, but it''s a pity." Mo Yun sneered and pulled the bow string indifferently to end this person''s life.


    "I heard you''re looking for Mo!" suddenly a voice appeared, which immediately made the belligerents stagnate. I saw Merton appear in the battlefield.


    "Marquis Mo, be careful." the surviving guards of the eightfold palace quickly withdrew, and the guards were around Merton.


    "Mo Jia Zi!" Mo Yun''s eyes narrowed. He naturally recognized the legendary figure of the Tang Dynasty. He didn''t think that Mo Jia Zi not only didn''t escape, but took the initiative to show up.


    "Yes, it''s Mo! Where''s ashner''s association rate?" Merton said coldly.


    Mo Yun was suddenly surprised. He didn''t expect the other party to say that the leader of the rebellion was ASHNA''s association rate.


    "Killing you is like taking things out of your pocket. Why should the general go out in person? I think it''s strange that you take the initiative. I''ll leave you a whole body." Mo Yun said with a grim smile.


    "Be careful, marquis Mo, this man is a marksman." a guard of the eightfold Palace said with lingering fear.


    "Sharpshooter? I just got a peerless weapon and wanted to try my edge." Merton pushed aside the guard''s protection and stepped out to compete with Mo Yun.


    Mo Yun laughed loudly. His achievements in life lay in the bow and arrow in his hand, and the Mexican family tried to compete with him. It was a suicide attempt.


    The two men''s faces coagulated at the same time and suddenly moved.


    "Bang!" only a penetrating sound rang through the whole Jiucheng palace.


    Mo Yun was shocked and looked at the blood hole in his body. The Mohist school was thirty steps away from him, and his bow and arrow had been defeated before they sent out.


    "Gunpowder!" Mo Yun said hard.


    He was facing the Mohist family, and clearly saw a dark hole in the Mohist family''s hand, emitting a mass of fire and the smell of gunsmoke.


    However, Moyun was not frightened by his great pain and the continuous loss of vitality. What really frightened him was the absolute suppression of bows and arrows by mojiazi''s weapons.


    If ASHNA''s association rate is a rebellion for power, and Moyun is really dedicated to the restoration of the Turks, even if he sacrificed his life for it, otherwise Moyun''s character with ASHNA''s association rate can''t make Moyun follow wholeheartedly.


    However, the biggest weapon of Turks is riding and shooting. Now the mojiazi has developed a gunpowder weapon to suppress bows and arrows. That doesn''t mean that the only advantage of the grassland has disappeared.


    "The Turks are over!" Mo Yun felt sad and fell into boundless darkness.


    "Win!" the guard of the eight fold palace couldn''t help but rejoice. To know that Moyun, the sharpshooter, was the greatest threat in the audience. However, he fell under the peerless weapon of marquis Mo, which immediately shocked everyone.


    Merton looked at the revolver in his hand. This is the body protecting weapon made by the whole village. He originally wanted to be the killer mace of the firearm supervisor. Unfortunately, he was removed from the position of firearm supervisor in the blink of an eye. This weapon was naturally owned by Merton. Although it is not as accurate as that of later generations, it has enough lethality in close combat.


    "Bang! Bang! Bang!" the left wheel opened fire continuously, and one Turkic rebel was hit hard and screamed again and again.


    "Kill!" the guards of the eight fold palace took the opportunity to counter attack. It turned out that the guards of the eight fold palace were defeated one after another because of the headless dragons and the suppression of Moyun''s marksman.


    Now the situation is reversed. Now the Turkic rebels are headless, and with mohou in the eight fold palace, they have the backbone again, not to mention that every time the firearm in mohou''s hand rings, a Turkic rebel will fall, putting enough pressure on the Turkic rebels.


    "Fight to the death for the Turks!" however, even if the Turkic rebels suffered heavy losses, they still fought to the death and fought back madly one by one.


    However, everything was in vain. With the continuous cooperation of the guards of the eightfold palace, the resistance of the Turkic rebels became less and less until it disappeared completely.


    Merton was relieved when he saw the last Turkic rebel fall. He looked at the revolver that was about to be scrapped. If it hadn''t been made by Mojia village at the fastest speed, I''m afraid he would be doomed today. Unfortunately, even based on the industrial foundation of Mojia village, the wheel still failed. After a few shots, he was close to scrapping.


    "The whole army assembled, leaving some to treat the wounded, and the rest to rescue the jiuzhong palace immediately!" Merton immediately ordered when he saw that the guards of the Bazhong palace had confirmed that the Turkic rebels had been ambushed and killed completely.


    "Yes!" the soldiers shouted suddenly.


    However, to Merton''s surprise, even the wounded soldiers are excited to go to Jiucheng palace for rescue. That''s the power of rescue. As long as they are not dying, they have to climb to jiuzhong palace!


    Merton couldn''t help smiling bitterly and acquiesced to this behavior.


    "I hope your majesty will hold on," Merton said silently in his heart.


    Before a incense stick.


    Ashner''s Association rushed to the jiuzhong palace with blood. The guards of the jiuzhong palace, who were also facing the great enemy, raised their weapons one after another.


    "General sun, hurry, go and inform your majesty that his Highness the king of Jin has conspired and led a large number of rebels to attack." ASHNA''s association rate shouted to sun wukai, the guard General of jiuzhong palace.


    "The king of Jin conspired against him!" sun wukai was shocked. As the guard General of jiuzhong palace, he naturally knew the news that his Highness the king of Jin was coming today. However, there was no figure of the king of Jin in the left and right, and even waited for the news that the king of Jin conspired against him.


    "Yes, the king of Jin''s rebels have broken four lines of defense and are about to approach the Jiuchong palace. General sun asked his majesty to move and let us fight to stop the king of Jin''s rebels." ashner''s association rate is loyal, and he is familiar with the layout of the Jiucheng palace.


    Sun Wu was in a panic when he was happy. It is clear that there is indeed a rebel in jiuzhong palace. Since it is a riot, its goal is self-evident. It is for his majesty. The top priority is to ensure his Majesty''s safety.


    However, just when sun wukai was excited, a powerful gunpowder sound came from the direction of the eight fold palace, which woke sun wukai up in an instant.


    "No!" Sun Wu was so excited that he suddenly turned sideways and escaped the assassination of ASHNA''s association rate.


    "ASHNA''s association rate, you should have been outside the Jiucheng palace. You can''t appear in front of the jiuzhong palace. You are the rebel!" Sun Wu shouted coldly.


    Ashner''s association rate secretly regretted that if it hadn''t been for the loud noise, he might have succeeded. Moreover, the gunpowder roar came from the direction of the eight fold palace. Where Mo Yun was attacking, it attracted the Mo family to use gunpowder. Obviously, the war was not going well.


    What worries him even more is that such a loud noise will certainly disturb the guards of 90% of the palace. He must make a quick decision.


    ASHNA''s association rate waved a big hand, and the Turkic rebels immediately pressed on.


    Sun wukai shouted: "don''t resist hard. Delay with the help of the terrain. The enemy is a Turkic rebel. Everyone speaks loudly and distinguishes between the enemy and us."


    The reason why the Turkic rebels succeeded repeatedly was that they were wearing Tang army armor and could not distinguish between the enemy and us. However, sun wukai thought of the way to break the situation, that is, language.


    Although the Turkic rebels have been in the Tang Dynasty for many years, their Chinese language is still very different from the native Tang people. They distinguish the enemy and us by language, which makes the advantages of the Turkic rebels disappear.

 Chapter 1175

    "What''s the matter?" the crisp gunshot woke Li Shimin suddenly, and the empress Chang sun trembled all over.


    In the distance, a series of gunshots in the eight fold palace and the fighting in the nine fold palace became more and more serious, and even could be clearly transmitted to the bedroom, which made the couple suddenly think of the scene they met 15 years ago.


    "Rebellion!"


    The Tang Dynasty has been peaceful for 15 years, but the change of Xuanwu Gate still appears in the dreams of the husband and wife from time to time. However, this time is no longer a nightmare, but a reality. They have also encountered the same rebellion, and the rebels have killed the jiuzhong palace, only one step away from his bedroom.


    "It''s really brave. I want to see who dares to rebel in the Jiuchong palace!" Li Shimin was furious. He thought that when he was in power, the world was peaceful, and someone dared to oppose him. How could he accept this? He immediately put on his clothes and came out with a sword.


    "Your Majesty, be careful." outside the sleeping palace, Xi Junmai led the forbidden guards to be ready. Looking at Li Shimin coming out, he hurried forward.


    "Have you ever found out who is rebelling?" Li Shimin shouted.


    Xi Jun couldn''t help buying a meal. He opened his mouth and wanted to stop talking.


    Li Shimin said coldly, "the thief army has killed the Jiuchong palace. Is there anything else you can''t say?"


    Xi Junmai bowed his head and said, "there is news that his Highness the king of Jin is plotting rebellion!"


    "Child slave?" Li Shimin couldn''t help himself. According to the agreement, today is the day when the child slave arrived at the Jiucheng palace. At this time, there was a rebellion, which is really suspicious.


    "It''s impossible. The young slave is pure filial, and it''s impossible to do anything against him." empress Chang sun jumped out of the hall door and said firmly.


    "I think it''s the thief who kidnapped the king of Jin to rebel!" Xi Jun bought and bowed his head.


    Empress changsun couldn''t help but whirl around. Whether the king of Jin rebelled or the king of Jin fell into the hands of the rebels, these are things empress changsun didn''t want to see.


    "Guanyin maidservant!" Li Shimin hurriedly held the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang Sun said weakly, "Your Majesty, we must rescue the young slaves."


    "Don''t worry, I know." Li Shimin nodded. He knew that empress Chang sun had two meanings. One was to let Li Shimin save Li Zhi if he fell into the hands of thieves, and the other was to let Li Shimin spare him if it was really Li Zhi''s rebellion.


    "The rebels are in the front hall. Let the ministers escort your majesty to a safe place." Xi Jun said anxiously.


    Li Shimin snorted coldly, "even the alliance of the Weishui River didn''t make me step back, let alone this small rebellion. I believe my forbidden guard is waiting here."


    As luck would have it, Li Shimin never thought that the same Turks were responsible for this rebellion.


    "My concubine is with your majesty!" empress Chang sun stood behind Li Shimin with her weak body. The husband and wife were as united as they were in dealing with the change of Xuanwu Gate.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ASHNA''s Association led a knife to ward off sun wukai''s sneak attack. Sun wukai used language to distinguish the Tang army and the Turkic rebels, which immediately put the whole war into a state of anxiety. In addition, sun wukai did not want to kill the enemy, but wanted to delay self-protection. Although he retreated step by step, the guards of the jiuzhong palace still didn''t collapse.


    "Damn it! If Mo Yun did this again, why would he fall into such a deadlock." ashner roared at the association rate.


    Unfortunately, Mo Yun was sent to the eight fold palace to assassinate Mo Jiazi. If Mo Yun was a marksman, he could break the deadlock. However, what made him wonder was that Mo Yun had been gone for a long time, and the gunpowder sound of the eightfold palace had stopped, but he still didn''t see Mo Yun coming back for support.


    "Come on, the rebels are in the jiuzhong palace, encircling the retreat of the rebels from behind. You can''t let one go." suddenly, a voice came from the direction of the eightfold palace, which immediately made ASHNA''s association rate like lightning strike.


    "Yes!" many voices answered.


    "MOH family!" ashner''s association rate was hurt. He was different from Moyun. Ashner''s association rate often guarded the palace. Naturally, he had seen Merton and was familiar with Merton''s voice.


    Now Merton came to support from the eightfold palace and thought that Mo Yun must have failed. However, he couldn''t understand how Mo Yun''s force could defeat so quickly.


    "General!" a group of Turkic rebels were flustered when they heard the support of the eightfold palace. If someone cut off their retreat, they would have no choice but to die.


    Ashner''s association rate looked at the Jiuchong palace close at hand, and then looked at sun wukai, who was still stubborn. He couldn''t help regretting. He never thought that he would be restrained by small people who had never cared before.


    Seeing that the guards of the eight fold Palace are getting closer and closer, and the guards of other several fold palaces in the distance are approaching. If you don''t go again, you really can''t go.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ashner''s association rate ordered heartily.


    Suddenly, a group of Turkic rebels quickly left the battlefield and withdrew to the place where they had turned over.


    Seeing that the Turkic rebels retreated quickly, sun wukai was overjoyed and immediately ordered the pursuit. It would be a great achievement if he could keep the mastermind ASHNA''s association rate in the Jiuchong palace.


    When the Turkic rebels encountered the reinforcements of the eighth palace, the two sides did not mean to stop them at all, and easily allowed ASHNA''s association rate to leave.


    Sun wukai pursued and approached. Looking at the head, he was the son of the MOH family. He frowned and said, "what does mohou mean? Why do you easily let the rebels leave?"


    If it had been sun wukai, he would not have dared to blame Merton easily. However, now Merton has lost his power and has been removed from the post of firearm supervisor. In addition, he is eager to make contributions and can''t help blurting out his career.


    Merton looked at Sun Wu coldly and said, "general sun, the eight fold palace is also attacked by the rebels. Do you think how much combat power is left after the eight fold palace eliminates the rebels?"


    Merton turned sideways and saw that there were a group of wounded soldiers behind Merton, who didn''t have much combat effectiveness at all.


    Ashner''s association rate never thought that the reinforcements of the Jiuchong palace he thought had little combat effectiveness. He used the plan of suspected soldiers to rush all the way into the Jiuchong palace and assassinate him. Finally, he was startled away by the plan of suspected soldiers by Mohist Zi. It can be said that he had his own will.


    In the distance, in order to stop the pursuit, the Turkic rebels began to set fire wantonly. In autumn, it was dry and dry. Coupled with intentional arson, the fire soon began to spread.


    "This is Chang''an City, far from the grassland. The Turkic rebels can''t escape far. The top priority is to protect your Majesty''s safety and fight the fire." Merton scolded.


    Sun Wu was surprised. He had just given up the important task of guarding the Jiuchong palace and pursued the enemy. If he was taken advantage of by the enemy, I''m afraid he would die.


    The sound of fighting with the guards of Jiuchong palace and the rebels came from the distance. Sun wukai took a deep breath and waved his big hand and said, "stop the pursuit and protect your Majesty''s safety."

 Chapter 1176

    The combat effectiveness of the Tang army is very good, especially the forbidden guards guarding the jiuzhong palace. They are the elite of the elite. After a short period of chaos, they immediately restore their strong combat effectiveness.


    Qin Huaiyu knocked over the Turkic rebels with a knife. Only then did he find that ASHNA''s association rate had fled, and a fire came from the stables in the distance, and the war horses fled in panic.


    "Ashner''s association rate snatched the horse and fled!" Chumo said angrily. Ashner''s association rate not only snatched the horse, but also set it on fire, which made it more difficult for them to pursue.


    Wei Chi Baolin said in a voice, "he can''t run far!"


    There is only one direction for ASHNA''s association rate to escape, that is, to the north, the land of Jiuyuan, where the Turks moved inward. If ASHNA''s association rate cannot be stopped on the South Bank of the Weihe River, it will be difficult to catch him once he crosses the river.


    "Chase, the opportunity for my brothers to atone for their deeds is in front of them." the three looked at each other. Although ashner''s association rate did not go through the main door and the palace guarded by the three of them did not survive, after all, 90% of the palace was broken and their guards could not get rid of their relationship. Only by taking a crime and meritorious service and catching ashner''s association rate, could they atone for their deeds.


    The three delayed for a long time to find several lost horses and immediately urged the horses to pursue north.


    In the jiuzhong palace, Li Shimin was relieved when he watched the voice of the rebellion fade away. He had done such a rebellion once. However, when it really came to him, he would never forget that feeling.


    "Tell your majesty that you have repelled the Turkic rebels and frightened your majesty. Please forgive your majesty." sun wukai took the lead in coming to Li Shimin to ask for merit.


    "I beg your Majesty''s pardon for your late arrival." Merton led the bodyguard of the eight fold palace to follow.


    "Turkic rebels?" empress Chang sun was relieved to hear that it was not the king of Jin''s rebellion,


    Li Shimin''s eyes shrunk, and he was not happy at all. You should know that Turks are not a small force in the Tang Dynasty. After Li Shimin defeated Turks, in order to appease Turks, he wantonly made official vows to all Turkic departments. Turks accounted for half of the officials above the fifth grade in the Manchu Dynasty. It can be seen that Turks are powerful. If Turks rebel, I''m afraid half of the court will be paralyzed immediately.


    "The leader is the Zhonglang who leads ASHNA''s Association. His goal is his majesty and his ministers. I think there must be western Turks here." Merton replied solemnly.


    If the assassination of Li Shimin alone may be the Revenge of a small group of Turks, but specifically to kill mojiazi, I''m afraid there will be the shadow of Western Turks.


    "Have you ever seen the king of Jin?" empress Chang sun asked anxiously. All kinds of information came that the rebels were fighting under the banner of King Li Zhi of Jin. In empress Chang sun''s view, Li Zhi must have been coerced by ASHNA''s association rate.


    "I didn''t see your Highness the king of Jin!"


    Merton and sun wukai shook their heads one after another. Then they were the main targets of attack. They both fought directly with the Turkic rebels, but they didn''t see Li Zhi.


    "Don''t worry, empress. Maybe your highness King Jin is late and hasn''t been kidnapped by the Turkic rebels." Merton comforted.


    "I hope so?" the empress asked.


    As the news gradually came, the rebel''s action track soon came. Instead of using his Highness the king of Jin to deceive the Palace door, he turned into the 90% palace from the side wall.


    "A young slave is a blessed man. It must have escaped because of the strong wind."


    Empress Chang sun was relieved. She believed that Li Zhi must have been late and had not been kidnapped by the rebels.


    However, with the deepening of the investigation, Li Shimin''s face became more and more gloomy. Jiucheng palace, as an important place of the royal family, was so easily invaded and several lines of defense were broken by the rebels. I''m afraid he would be really dangerous this time if it weren''t for the sound from the Bazhong palace.


    "Sound!" Li Shimin immediately turned his eyes to the Mexican family. The assassination plan of ashner''s association rate was almost smooth, and the biggest accident was the loud sound.


    "Merton! You''re carrying gunpowder in 90% of the palace?" Li Shimin stared at Merton unkindly. The anger of Turkic assassination made him find a vent.


    In terms of threats, ashner''s assassination rate was really dangerous, and Merton hid gunpowder and brought it into the Jiucheng palace. What''s more, Li Shimin was helpless that Merton''s boldness saved him inadvertently.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "Weichen is not hiding gunpowder, but after the Tibetan ambush, Weichen only knows that his martial arts are low. He specially asked the Mojia village and the firearms supervisor to build a self-defense weapon, revolver, for Weichen!"


    Merton said that he handed the scrapped revolver and several bullets to Li Shimin. The whole revolver was made by Lao Zhang''s headband and the craftsman of Mojia village, and the bullets were made by Zhang Mu, the firearm supervisor. Although they belong to two departments, they are a perfect combination of father and son.


    "It''s this thing that killed Moyun!" Li Shimin shrunk his eyes. He naturally knew the name of marksman Moyun. He didn''t expect that Moyun, who is good at bows and arrows, fell under this thing.


    "It sounds like thunder and flashes like electricity. It''s much faster than pulling a bow and shooting an arrow. You can launch it by pulling the trigger. Even if you don''t know martial arts, you can use it, and you can shoot several guns in a row. Unfortunately, the current technology is still not good, and Weichen''s only more than ten guns have been scrapped." Merton said with disgust on his face.


    Li Shimin took a breath. He saw the wounds of the people who were shot. Each one left blood holes and even broke through the armor. He immediately realized the power of this object. No wonder Merton called it a peerless weapon.


    And without it, Merton could not quickly kill the Turkic rebels in the eighth palace and support the ninth palace to scare away the rebels.


    Sun Wu was so jealous that if there were no mojiazi, he would be the first to defend the jiuzhong palace alone. Mojiazi first fired a warning, then destroyed the incoming rebels, and finally supported the jiuzhong palace and scared the rebels away. In contrast, it was not enough for him to just defend the jiuzhong palace. Of course, he was lucky compared with those lost palaces.


    "You have such a peerless weapon, why don''t you report it to me!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Weichen is no longer a firearm supervisor, so it doesn''t make sense, let alone it''s just a semi-finished product." Merton stalled.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath. Only a semi-finished product has such power. It can be imagined how powerful it will be once it is created. I''m afraid it can replace the bow and arrow in the near future.


    If it hadn''t been for the assassination, Merton might not have taken it out. I didn''t expect that he could have a blessing in disguise.


    Li Shimin also wanted to beat Merton, when a bodyguard hurried to report.


    "Your Majesty, your Highness the king of Jin is here!"


    Everyone suddenly appeared. His Highness the king of Jin, who did not appear in the rebellion, finally appeared.

 Chapter 1177

    "It''s a capital crime for my son''s minister to visit my father. My son''s minister was late and was used by the rebels to frighten my father and my mother." Li Zhi rushed into the jiuzhong palace and saw Li Shimin and empress Chang sun flopping on the ground with tears on his face.


    He hurried all night. As soon as he got to Jiucheng palace, he saw the fire burning into the sky. He was even more frightened when he learned that the rebels were assassinating his majesty under his banner. If he was really convicted, even the prince could not eat it.


    When they looked at Li Zhi, they couldn''t help sighing. They didn''t know whether his Highness the king of Jin was lucky or unlucky. Unfortunately, he suffered a reckless disaster. Fortunately, he miraculously escaped the disaster because of a strong wind.


    "Get up! It has nothing to do with you." Li Shimin naturally did not doubt Li Zhi. He was relieved to see that Li Zhi was safe.


    "Thank you, father!" Li Zhi got up and said gratefully.


    Empress Chang sun pulled Li Zhi into her arms, checked carefully and confirmed that nothing had happened. Then she wept with joy.


    "Your Majesty, we have found out who is behind the scenes!" Xi Junmai hurried from outside and reported.


    "Who is it?" Li Shimin said with a gloomy face.


    "ASHNA''s association rate is the mastermind. It tangles with the Turkic rebels to support heluohu as a Khan and connects with the West Turks in an attempt to restore the Turks to the country. Now ASHNA''s association rate has fled north, and Qin Huaiyu and others have gone after him." Xi Jun Mailang said.


    After being chased by the guards of Jiucheng palace, naturally some rebels were caught alive. After interrogation, someone confessed soon.


    "Turkic restoration?" Li Shimin felt cold. He thought he had been good to Turks. He moved all Turkic departments to the south of the warm yellow river. He was no longer afraid of the snow disaster. More than half of the officials of the fifth grade in the court were Turks. Salary alone was a large expense every year. Li Shimin just wanted to win over these Turkic leaders, and Turks would naturally obey, But reality gave him a hard slap.


    In reality, many Turks are still dissatisfied with Datang and want to return to the grassland, which makes his most complacent title of tiankhan a joke.


    "Check it out for me, and immediately send someone to Chang''an city to catch Heluo Uighur." Li Shimin said with an iron blue face.


    Naturally, an ASHNA association rate can''t stir up much waves. However, the heluohu inherited the position of Tuli Khan and is the nominal Communist Lord of Turks. If it is not thoroughly investigated, I''m afraid there will be waves again in the Turkic parts that have been calm for ten years, and there will be no day of stability on the northern border.


    "Yes!" Xi Junmai shouted. With a wave of his hand, a bodyguard immediately led the troops to Chang''an city.


    Li Shimin stared at the fire of Jiuchong palace being put out gradually, but the flame in his heart was still burning. He Li Shimin and Tangtian Khan were also assassinated and rebelled, which made him proud that he couldn''t accept it.


    "The autumn night is cold, and the father emperor is frightened all night. Please rest early." Li Zhi came forward and said attentively.


    Li Shimin said angrily, "what else do you have to rest? Go back to Chang''an city immediately after dawn."


    Such a big event in Jiucheng palace has even implicated the Turks, the biggest unstable force in the Tang Dynasty. How can Li Shimin sleep safely? Naturally, he wants to return to the chaotang as soon as possible.


    Li Zhi immediately chatted up on his face. This time, he flattered the horse''s leg.


    Merton sighed and came forward to advise, "Your Majesty, your dragon body is healthy. Naturally, there is nothing wrong. However, I''m afraid the empress may not be able to hold it. She rushed back to Chang''an City for days, and as long as your majesty is fine, the Tang Dynasty will not be in chaos."


    Li Shimin was shocked. He just thought about state affairs, but ignored the frail empress changsun. She saw that the empress changsun was shivering under the autumn Phoenix, but she still insisted on being with Li Shimin.


    "Hurry, help the queen into the temple." Li Shimin hurriedly accompanied the empress changsun into the house, which didn''t insist on returning to Chang''an city.


    Seeing Li Shimin and empress Chang sun enter the house, Merton immediately turns back and rushes back to the Bazhong palace. I''m afraid Princess Changle is in a hurry.


    When Merton hurried back to the eight fold palace, he just saw Princess Changle looking anxiously outside the palace. When he saw Merton appear, he burst into tears of joy.


    "It''s over, everything is over!"


    Merton held Princess Changle in her arms and comforted her again and again. However, Princess Changle still grabbed Merton''s clothes and refused to let go. Originally, Merton was far away from the Yumen pass. She had been worried, but who thought she could suffer such a risk in the safest 90% palace.


    Merton said it was the past, but Merton knew that the real storm had just begun. This assassination officially ended the ten-year honeymoon period between Datang and Turks. From then on, there will be an insurmountable gap between the two ethnic groups.


    "Drive! Drive!"


    On the South Bank of the Weihe River, the ASHNA association rate, which buried the cracks between the Han nationality and the Turks, is running fiercely. He took the lead in obtaining the war horse and led several loyal men to flee north. All of them rode to the Weihe River without stopping. Once they crossed the Weihe River, they will fish into the sea and get rid of the pursuit completely.


    "Weihe River is ahead?" a Turkic rebel cheered.


    Ashner''s association rate looked around and saw the broad river embankment. The Weihe River finally arrived. He was overjoyed and hurried forward.


    "Find a boatman and cross the Weihe River as soon as possible." ashner''s association rate quickly ordered.


    However, the other thing that makes ashner''s association rate crazy is that he has been looking for more than ten miles, but he has not found a boatman.


    "How is this possible?" ashner''s association rate is crazy. Now time is life, but he wastes his time looking for a boat. On weekdays, there is no lack of boatman in the Weihe River. Why is there no trace of one today.


    "The Weishui bridge is about to open, and those boatmans are about to lose their livelihood. They all look for a way to live in advance." it was not until they found a farmer and ashner''s association rate that they understood the reason.


    The Weishui bridge, which has been built for five years, is finally going to be completed. The benefits of the Weishui bridge are self-evident. However, it is not beneficial to everyone, especially the ferries along the coast. Once the Weishui bridge is opened, who will take the ferry.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Ashner''s association rate was gnashing his teeth. He suddenly found that the Weishui bridge was also the work of Mohist. When he met Mohist, he was in bad times and ate it repeatedly.


    "By the way, the Weishui bridge can pass." ashner''s association rate moved in his heart. The Weishui bridge is about to be opened to traffic. It must have been roughly completed. There must be no problem passing through horses, otherwise the boatmans won''t leave.


    Ashner''s association rate made a quick decision and led his men to the Weishui bridge.


    Soon, the magnificent Weishui bridge far reflected the eyes of ashner''s association rate. People couldn''t help rushing. Now the Weishui bridge will be their last hope.


    "Don''t run!"


    Suddenly, there came a rush of Horseshoes from the rear. Ashner''s association rate looked back and was surprised. Qin Huaiyu and his three men had come after him.


    Ashner''s association rate hated him. If he hadn''t wasted too much time looking for the ferry, how could Tang Jun catch up with him.


    "General, go quickly. We''ll stop Tang Jun!"


    Those who follow ASHNA''s association rate are his loyal followers. When they see this, they immediately turn their horse''s head and head towards Qin Huaiyu, trying to win time for ASHNA''s association rate to escape.


    Qin Huaiyu was very anxious. Seeing that ashner''s association rate galloped towards the Weishui bridge, they had overdrawn their horsepower in order to catch up with ashner''s association rate. If ashner''s association rate crossed the Weishui bridge, they might no longer be able to pursue.


    Unfortunately, they are now entangled by the Turkic rebels and can only watch ASHNA''s association rate rush to the Weishui bridge.


    Ashner''s association rate is about to escape.

 Chapter 1178

    "Stop, the Weishui bridge is not open to traffic, no traffic!" seeing that ashner''s Association rushed straight to the Weishui bridge, Xiangfu''s children who were doing the final test hurried forward to block the way.


    "Get out of the way, I''m the general of the Middle Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty. There is an urgent military affairs to pass. Let me go immediately!" ASHNA''s association rate shouted and came with his horse.


    The sons of the prime minister''s family frowned. Ashner''s association rate was wearing a suit of armor, which was the dress of the general of the Tang Dynasty. They couldn''t help looking at Li Yun, the leader.


    Li Yun looked unchanged and asked, "urgent military affairs are sent by eight hundred mile expedited post soldiers. All the posts are post stations. I''m afraid there''s no need for a Zhonglang to send news in the future!"


    Qin Huaiyu in the distance shouted, "brother Li, be careful, this man is a rebel! Don''t let him go."


    "Rebels?" Li Yun shrunk his eyes and looked at ASHNA''s association rate.


    "It''s also the people of Mohism who are in the way. Today, the general will sacrifice you to the sword and charge some interest." ashner''s association rate smiled grimly. Xiangfu''s pulse is only a bridge builder and unarmed. How can he be afraid? Now, take the knife and kill him.


    Seeing the grimly smiling ashner''s association rate, Li Yun shook his head and sighed, "why do everyone regard Mohism as a soft persimmon."


    Li Yun''s face didn''t panic at all, and even the children of the prime minister''s family also looked like watching a good play.


    Li Yun flashed away and unexpectedly followed the trend and immediately behind ashner''s association rate. One forced ashner''s association rate from the horse to fall heavily on the smooth bridge deck. Other Xiangfu''s children rubbed forward one after another to firmly control ashner''s association rate.


    "How is this possible?" ashner''s association rate shook his dizzy head and frowned. He was a general who rushed to kill the enemy. He didn''t expect to be easily defeated by the sick child who was still in the wheelchair.


    "If I don''t know the martial arts of the Mohist school, how can we make the world non attack? The Mohist village retains the Mohist array, while my Xiangfu family retains the inheritance of the Mohist Xia. If you are in the army, I can''t help you. However, you are only a single man, and you are not my opponent." Li Yun said faintly. In the spring and Autumn period, the Mohist school can be described as a war in the world. In addition to the advanced siege ink skills, superb martial arts are also indispensable, and even derived the ink Xia who specializes in martial arts. On the basis of fighting the enemy, the generals who naturally support the army are the most powerful, and on the basis of fighting alone, I''m afraid the generals with high martial arts can''t rival the ink Xia who is proficient in combat skills.


    "Mo Xia!" ashner''s grief and anger in his heart could not be expressed. The Mohist school was his nemesis. He lost to the son of the Mohist family first, and then to Li Yun, a member of the Xiangfu family.


    "Brother Li has such ability!" Qin Huaiyu, who solved the entanglement of the Turkic rebels, arrived and was surprised to see the subdued ASHNA''s association rate. They had known Li Yun for many years. They really didn''t know that Li Yun was proficient in martial arts.


    "Xia breaks the ban with martial arts, and ink skill is the foundation of Mohism. It''s not worth mentioning a trivial matter." Li yunyun waved his hand lightly.


    Qin Huaiyu didn''t care about his friends'' clothes. They looked at the subdued ASHNA''s association rate with ecstasy. Only when they caught ASHNA''s association rate could their faces of the forbidden guards be preserved and they could commit crimes and meritorious deeds.


    "Please help brother Li and escort the traitor who assassinated your majesty!" Qin Huaiyu and his three friends will not neglect the credit of their good friends.


    "Assassinate your majesty!" Li Yun, who was still light and gentle just now, was startled. He didn''t expect that this person should have committed such a great crime. If Xiangfu hesitated to let him pass the Weishui bridge just now, I''m afraid the credit for building the Weishui bridge is not enough.


    Qin Huaiyu simply said the Jiucheng palace rebellion again, and Li Yun couldn''t help sighing.


    "By the way, is brother Mo still safe?" Li Yun suddenly remembered that Merton was also in Jiucheng palace and hurriedly asked.


    Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "little brother, I don''t know about the eightfold palace. However, ashner''s association rate was defeated and escaped. I think it was a failure. Brother Mo should be fine."


    "I hope so!"


    Li Yun was disappointed. It seems that his position as the first brother of Mohism is still far away.


    Li Yun couldn''t help but feel depressed. With a big hand, he ordered several children of Xiangfu''s family to help Qin Huaiyu and the three pressed ASHNA''s association rate back.


    In Chang''an City, an eight hundred mile was rushed to the Tai Chi hall.


    "What, the father was assassinated!"


    Li Chengqian, who was in charge of supervising the country, was shocked when he heard the news. He immediately felt the thorny point of this matter. You should know that the Turkic forces in the imperial court are too large. If they are not handled properly, they will certainly cause shock.


    "The old minister has just learned about it, so he came to ask his Royal Highness for instructions." Fang Xuanling said anxiously, and he naturally understood the thorny problem.


    "Immediately summon all civil and military officials to discuss matters, and all officials above grade five should arrive!" Li Chengqian immediately ordered. Most of the Turkic forces in Korea and China are concentrated in more than five grades. As long as these Turkic nobles are controlled, Turks can be stabilized by at least half. Since it is assassination, it must be a rebellion of a few people. If all Turkic nobles have different intentions, I''m afraid it''s not as simple as assassination.


    "Your Highness is wise!" Fang Xuanling nodded,


    Li Chengqian continued, "in addition, close the gate of Chang''an city immediately to ensure the safety of Chang''an city."


    Chang''an city is not only the center of the Tang Dynasty, but also the most concentrated place of Turkic forces. As long as Chang''an city is not chaotic, Turkic forces can''t turn the sky at all.


    Fang Xuanling nodded. After years of supervising the country, Li Chengqian has become very sophisticated in his ability to deal with affairs.


    "The last one is to capture heluohu, monitor other Turkic mansions, and eliminate any changes immediately." Li Chengqian said ruthlessly. At the moment, Li Chengqian has vaguely had the decision of the king to kill.


    Fang Xuanling was awestruck and acted according to the order.


    With a paper order, all the palace gates in Chang''an City were shut down, and the whole Chang''an city was wiped out. A large number of forbidden troops were mobilized one after another. If you have a heart, you will find that these mobilized forbidden troops are Han soldiers, and most of the Turkic soldiers were ordered to return to the camp


    After a large number of Turkic officials were ordered to enter the palace, their residences were also monitored and prohibited from entering and leaving.


    "Your Highness the prince called us into the palace. What''s important?" outside the Tai Chi hall, all the civil and military officials in the court came one after another. After they got the order, they rushed to the Tai Chi hall immediately.


    Seeing all the Turkic officials coming, Li Chengqian couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief. These Turkic officials are willing to come by themselves, which means that they have not rebelled and the rest is easy to do.


    At that moment, Li Chengqian got up and said, "just now, there was a hurry from Jiucheng palace. Your Majesty was assassinated."


    "What?" there was an uproar all over the country. Now the Tang Dynasty is in good health. When foreign countries come to Korea, the name of heavenly Khan is world-famous. Unexpectedly, some people went to assassinate and rebel.


    "I don''t know who the assassin is. The veteran led the troops to kill him!" ashnasmo, the mainstay of Turkic officials, proudly stepped out. Although he is a Turkic royal family, he has always been close to the Tang Dynasty and loyal to Li Shimin. He is most qualified to say this sentence.


    Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said, "the rebels are asna''s association rate. They support Heluo Uighurs in a vain attempt to stand on their own and take refuge in Yugu set."


    "Ah!"


    Suddenly, everyone was surprised and suddenly looked at the Turkic officials who occupied half of the hall. They did not expect that it was a Turkic rebellion. They found that the nominal leader of Turks, he Luohu, did not appear in the court.

 Chapter 1179

    "What? ASHNA''s Association led the villain to assassinate Tian Khan!" ashnasmo was shocked and exclaimed. He never thought that it was the Turks and the Turkic Khan who assassinated his majesty.


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "yes, there was a hurry of 800 Li from the Jiucheng palace. ASHNA formed an association with heluohu and gathered hundreds of Turkic rebels. Then his Highness the king of Jin went to the Jiucheng palace to assassinate the emperor. Fortunately, the king of Jin delayed his trip because of the windy weather, so ASHNA formed an association and led his troops to risk. That didn''t succeed."


    Li Chengqian simply told the story again. Manchang was in an uproar and shouted for luck. If it was because of the strong wind, I''m afraid the emperor would be really dangerous this time.


    "Your Highness, it was done privately by ASHNA''s association rate and he Luohu. We are loyal to the Tang Dynasty and have no rebellious heart!" ashnashmo fell to his knees and cried out bitterly, and other Turkic generals also shouted grievances one after another.


    While shouting grievances, a group of Turkic generals secretly scolded ASHNA''s association rate again and again, which hurt them.


    According to the rules of the grassland, a tribe''s defeat was extremely miserable. After the defeat of the Turks, Li Shimin did not kill them all. Instead, he moved the Turks to the south of the warm yellow river and wantonly sealed them off.


    Those who can come to Taiji hall are vested interests. They enjoy the worship of the tribe and the rich salaries of the Tang Dynasty. They are not rebellious. Even many people enjoy this kind of glorious and rich life. However, the rebellion of ASHNA''s association rate is likely to turn their prosperity into nothing.


    "Since you have come to the Tai Chi hall alone, the palace naturally understands your loyalty to the Tang Dynasty. When your father returns, the palace will explain to him." with a kind face, Li Chengqian personally stepped forward and helped up a group of Turkic generals to appease them one by one.


    "Thank you for your understanding, your highness. I dare to ask where he Luohu is. The old minister killed him himself." ashnasmo got up grateful and roared.


    In this rebellion, ASHNA''s association rate was at large, and one of the masterminds, he Luohu, was still in Chang''an city. For a moment, the anger of the Turkic generals focused on he Luohu.


    Li Chengqian sneered: "don''t worry, general. The palace has ordered the capture of heluohu. I believe it should be here now."


    Outside Chang''an City, outside the secret manor of Heluo Uighur, a team of forbidden guards surrounded the manor.


    "Attack!"


    Cheng Yaojin, the leader, was wearing heavy armor and looked at the heavily guarded manor with a cold face.


    Suddenly, a large number of forbidden guards began to attack the manor. A city car knocked open the gate of the manor, and a large number of forbidden troops killed in one after another. Soon, the fierce fighting sound from the manor soon fell silent.


    When Cheng Yaojin entered the Turkic style manor, the Turkic rebels in the whole manor were covered with corpses, which was very bloody. Anyone who plotted against and stabbed the king in all dynasties was an unforgivable death crime, and the forbidden guards didn''t keep their hands at all.


    "Where''s Heluo Uighur?" Cheng Yaojin frowned.


    "Trapped there!" said a forbidden guard, pointing to the most glorious tooth tent in the middle of the manor.


    When Cheng Yaojin approached, the forbidden guards stepped aside one after another. In the middle of the dental tent, a young man dressed in Khan sat upright in the dental tent and officially congratulated the Luo Uighur.


    "You didn''t escape?" Cheng Yaojin said in surprise.


    "Ben Khan, why did you run away? I''m the grandson of Shibi Khan, the Turkic Khan and the Communist Lord on the grassland. You think I''m Jieli''s soft bone and beg for mercy on your knees." he Luohu said proudly.


    Cheng Yaojin frowned and looked at he Luohu like a madman. He didn''t understand: "with your status, there is no lack of prosperity and wealth. Why do you want to rebel?"


    He Luohu laughed loudly and said, "rebellion? It''s a joke. Li Shimin personally named me Khan, but he trapped me in Chang''an. Is a Khan who is not in the tribe or a Khan? Since Li Shimin doesn''t give this Khan position, what''s wrong with me coming and going in person!"


    At this stage, he Luohu had no way back. Originally, he could suppress his ambition and pity himself when there was no one. However, after the bewitchment of ashner''s association rate, his ambition was like a raging fire, which could not be extinguished.


    "This man is crazy. He will be imprisoned until his majesty comes back." Cheng Yaojin looked at the crazy he Luohu and waved his big hand.


    "Stop, who dares to catch me? I''m a Turkic Khan. I''m the grandson of Shibi Khan. I think it was Li Yuan who was respectful when he saw my ancestor."


    "When our Turkic army arrives, we will certainly kill all your Han people." he Luohu shouted wildly.


    Unfortunately, everything was in vain. He Luohu was immediately suppressed by the forbidden guards, and even blocked his mouth to prevent him from talking nonsense.


    When he Luohu was taken back to Chang''an City, almost at the same time, Qin Huaiyu and the three also rushed to Chang''an City under the pressure of ASHNA''s association rate.


    So far, the two culprits who assassinated Li Shimin have been escorted to justice. However, although the masterminds have been arrested, the assassination of Jiucheng palace has not ended.


    When the two were escorted into Chang''an City, the news of the assassination of Li Shimin by the Turkic rebels immediately spread in Chang''an City, and the whole people were excited.


    Chang''an people poured out, pointing to them and yelling at them. Rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves kept smashing them.


    "The Turks are really ambitious. How much money and food does your majesty allocate to feed them every year? They even bite the hand that feeds them and assassinate your majesty!"


    People were filled with righteous indignation and denounced Turks for being ungrateful. Turks were the feud of the Han people. However, since Li Shimin several Turks, he moved all Turkic departments and allocated money and food every year, which was very interesting. In contrast, the Han people actually felt like second-class citizens.


    Originally, the Han people had their opinions on this situation. Now, the Turkish rebels assassinated Li Shimin, which immediately detonated the contradiction between the Han people and the Turks.


    "Let the Turks get out of Datang!"


    For a moment, the people of Chang''an were excited and shouted one after another.


    "ASHNA''s association rate is damn!" in the Tai Chi hall, Li Chengqian heard the reaction of the people and couldn''t help hating it. As a prince, Li Chengqian naturally knew the role of Turks. The internal migration of Turks has stabilized the northern frontier for ten years, and the accession of Turks has greatly improved the strength of Datang.


    The western expedition of the Tang Dynasty to Tuyuhun and the western expedition to Gaochang have won successive victories. Although the main force is the Tang army, the Turkic generals and soldiers have made great contributions. Once the Tang Dynasty and the Turks have a bad relationship, the strength of the Tang Dynasty will be greatly reduced. Needless to say, the Turks return to the grassland is like releasing the tiger back to the mountain, and there will be no day of stability on the northern border.


    "Where is the father?" Li Chengqian asked anxiously. Such a big thing is not what he, the prince, can decide. Only when Li Shimin comes back to make a decision.


    "Drive!"


    On the official road from Jiucheng palace to Chang''an City, a long motorcade is moving forward at a high speed. After appeasing empress Chang sun, Li Shimin immediately restored the emperor''s nature, entrusted it to Princess Changle, and immediately rushed to Chang''an city with Merton.


    The carriage galloped all the way, using the method of changing people without changing horses. It took only three hours for the three hundred mile road to reach Chang''an city.

 Chapter 1180

    "Your Majesty is back!"


    When Li Shimin''s cars and horses appeared at the west gate, the whole Chang''an city was a sensation.


    "Fortunately, your majesty is in good health. Otherwise, I will kill all the Turks myself!" an old soldier said angrily.


    Everyone else agrees! Although Li Shimin had many blemishes when he got the throne, he was indeed a Mingjun in recent years. In addition, with the recent rise of Mohism, the rapid development of the Tang Dynasty and the booming days of the people, Li Shimin''s popularity among the people is increasing day by day. For the people, as long as they can eat and wear warm, who cares about the broken things of those who are high above.


    With Li Shimin''s return, the excited Chang''an people slowly subsided, and some actions against the Hu people stopped. This is also the reason why Li Shimin is eager to return to Chang''an city. If 90% of the palace is delayed for too long, it is uncertain what trouble will happen between the Han and Hu people in Chang''an city.


    "My courtiers welcome my father!"


    In the palace, when Li Chengqian got the news of Li Shimin''s return, he was relieved and hurried to meet him.


    "Minister, welcome your majesty!" Wen Wu, a Han man in the Manchu Dynasty, followed Li Chengqian and said.


    "Sin minister welcomes your majesty. Fortunately, your majesty has nothing to do, otherwise you will die."


    Behind them, a group of Turkic ministers knelt down. Li Shimin''s return will determine the future relationship between Turks and the Tang Dynasty, as well as their prosperity, even life and death.


    Li Shimin ignored Li Chengqian and a group of civil and military ministers, personally stepped forward to lift up a group of Turkic generals, and said sincerely on his face: "I naturally know your sincerity. This is only because ASHNA''s association rate and he Luohu were bewitched by Yugu, which has nothing to do with you, but also with the friendship between Turks and Datang."


    "Sinners kowtow to thank the Khan." ashnasmo cried with gratitude, and other Turkic officials thanked him one after another. If they could say this from Li Shimin''s mouth, they would be picked out from the rebellion, at least they would not be involved.


    Li Shimin first calmed the hearts of the Turkic generals, and then brought a group of civil and military ministers back to the Tai Chi hall.


    "Tell your father that ASHNA''s association rate and he Luohu have all been arrested! Please tell your majesty," said Li Chengqian Lang.


    "Well done!" Li Shimin nodded and raised his hand slightly. "Bring them all up. I''ll interrogate them myself."


    Soon, Cheng Yaojin took the two bound to the Tai Chi hall. As for Qin Huaiyu, they are not qualified to participate.


    "Kneel down!" Cheng Yaojin shouted angrily.


    But he Luohu was not afraid at all. He laughed and said, "You Li Shimin is the son of heaven, and I he Luohu is also a Khan. Why should I kneel to you?"


    Ashnashmo trembled angrily and said, "heluohu, Tian Khan pity Tuli''s early death. He has taken care of you all these years. Otherwise, how can you inherit Tuli''s position at your young age? You should bite the hand that feeds you and want to assassinate your majesty."


    According to the rules of the grassland, the elder brother and the younger brother, Tuli Khan died early. According to Turkic customs, I''m afraid his wealth and status have long been divided up by his brothers.


    However, Li Shimin passed the position of Tuli to heluohu according to the customs of the Tang Dynasty and the inheritance system of the eldest son. Otherwise, it would be his turn for the young son to enjoy all this.


    He Luohu laughed and said, "you still have the courage to mention your father''s Khan. You are all the ministers of your father''s Khan, but you betrayed your father''s Khan. Why did your father Khan die early? It''s not because of this faint monarch. Otherwise, why would you die young with the heroism of your father''s Khan."


    Li Shimin frowned. Only then did he understand why he Luohu rebelled. On the one hand, it was because of the temptation of the Khan position, on the other hand, it was to avenge his father.


    Li Shimin sighed: "Heluohu, if you think I hurt the Tuli brothers, you are very wrong. It was your most trusted uncle ashner who falsely accused me of rebellion against the Tuli brothers that made the Tuli brothers worried and ended up with hatred. Therefore, I know the character of ashner''s association rate. He has not been promoted for ten years and is still a Zhonglang general, which makes him hold a grudge and plot a rebellion!"


    "Ah! Uncle, is this true?" he Luohu couldn''t believe it. He looked back at ASHNA''s association rate. He didn''t think that his most trusted uncle was the man who framed his father.


    ASHNA''s association rate sneered: "Zhonglang general, who cares about your official position in the Tang Dynasty? I''m a member of the ASHNA family. What I want is the position of Khan. I''m not afraid to tell you now. I''m not only reporting on Tuli''s rebellion, but even Tuli''s death."


    Ashner''s Association knew that he could not escape death, and revealed the truth of that year without concern.


    He Luohu was like a thunderbolt. After Tuli''s early death, he Luohu treated ASHNA''s uncle like his father, but he never thought he was a thief as his father.


    Suddenly, all the Turkic officials were in an uproar. No one thought that ASHNA''s association rate would kill his brother Tuli.


    "Ashner''s association rate, you are a wolf''s ambition. You should harm your brother for your own benefit." ashner smoothie was angry and said.


    "For my own benefit, no, I didn''t always do it for my own prosperity. If I wanted to, I just needed to kneel in front of the dog emperor like you. All I did was for the Turkic Khanate. At that time, I urged Tuli to take advantage of the Turkic migration and most of the tribes were dissatisfied, lead the Turkic departments to take the opportunity to destroy the Tang Dynasty and achieve the success of my father''s success in one fell swoop But I didn''t expect that Tuli was so weak that he didn''t dare to fear.


    Since Tuli is weak, there is no need for him to occupy the position of Khan, so I will sue Tuli for rebellion first, and then plot to poison him. Unfortunately, Li Shimin is biased against me and refuses to follow the customs of brothers and sisters on the grassland. Instead, he supports your young son to succeed to the throne. Otherwise, it is our Turkic Khanate that has entered the Central Plains. " Ashner''s association rate is arrogant.


    A number of Turkic generals were shocked. I don''t know whether they were shocked by the ambition of ASHNA''s association rate or ambition.


    "You are crazy! If Turks follow you, they will be destroyed sooner or later." ashnasmo was hard to believe.


    ASHNA''s association rate was arrogant and said, "so what? It''s not good to follow the Tang Dynasty! Now the Tang Dynasty has expanded thousands of miles. How many of them were killed by my Turkic son, which was bought by my Turkic son''s blood."


    Merton came forward and denounced, "it''s ridiculous. 70% of the soldiers in the two western expeditions were Tang soldiers, and 30% were the coalition forces of Turks and other nationalities. The most casualties were also Tang soldiers. Moreover, none of the Turks was injured in the western expedition to Gaochang."


    Merton slapped ASHNA''s association rate with iron facts. During the first western expedition to Tuyuhun, although Turkic soldiers had casualties, Datang did not treat them badly and gave rich compensation to the dead soldiers. The deaths of those soldiers also won glory and wealth for Turkic generals. All Turkic officials present were vested interests.


    As for the second western expedition to Gaochang, due to the destruction of the city by the firearm prison, none of the Turkic soldiers was injured, let alone the rivers and mountains fought by the Turkic soldiers for the Tang Dynasty. For this, many Turkic officials have the idea of the Tang Dynasty and can get credit without making efforts.


    ASHNA''s association rate laughed miserably and said, "it''s like a dog led by a hunter. I Turks are born wolves on the grassland. I run on the grassland, not your Datang dog. I guard the house for my master and chase prey."


    A group of Turkic officials were embarrassed. ASHNA''s association rate showed a crazy wolf nature, more like Turks than all of them.

 Chapter 1181

    "This is the reason for your rebellion. I have never treated Turkic ministries lightly. Instead, I have given them more generous gifts. Turks and Datang benefit both at the same time, and two harm at the same time. I treat Turkic people better than Datang people. Turks don''t have to endure cold and hunger and disease when they go south. What''s wrong?" Li Shimin angrily scolded.


    He originally wanted to make an example of ASHNA''s association rate, but he didn''t expect that ASHNA''s association rate openly encouraged the confrontation between Turks and Datang.


    "So what? I didn''t let Turks fight for the Tang Dynasty first." ASHNA''s association rate sneered.


    Li Shimin sighed in his heart. He knew that once the assassination happened, a thorn was buried in the center of the Tang Dynasty and Turks, and he would never return to the close cooperation in the past, and the initiator of all this was ASHNA''s association rate.


    "Ashner''s association rate maliciously destroys the peace between the two ethnic groups, plots to assassinate the monarch, and is extremely evil. He will copy his family and kill him." Li Shimin said coldly.


    A group of Turkic generals were relieved when they heard Li Shimin''s judgment. Li Shimin only killed ASHNA, and the association rate was not connected. It can be said that Li Shimin was relieved.


    According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, assassinating the king is a great crime to kill the nine families. However, the ASHNA association rate is a member of the ASHNA family and a leader of the Turks. Once the nine families are involved, I''m afraid few Turk generals present can stay out of it.


    "Hahaha, what if you kill me? Turks can never be trusted by others. I Turks will return to the grassland one day."


    Suddenly, several bodyguards immediately detained ASHNA''s association rate, but ASHNA''s association rate was still rampant, loudly alienating the relationship between the Turkic general and Datang.


    However, although the assna association rate is the mastermind, its status is not important. A group of Turkic generals pay attention to another person, the unlucky heluohu. He Luohu was a poor and sad man from beginning to end. He was obsessed with the position of Khan, but he had no strength. The uncle he relied on was the real murderer of his father, and he just used him from beginning to end.


    "Heluohu, you conspired to assassinate the king. You should have been cut thousands of times, but your father Tuli was more meritorious in the Tang Dynasty because you were used. Today, I''ll spare you your death, take your Khan''s position and exile you to Lingnan." Li Shimin looked at a group of Turkic generals. Finally, he didn''t kill anyone and let heluohu go.


    "Father Khan, my son is unfilial!" he Luohu heard Li Shimin''s pardon. Instead of showing joy, he was even more dejected. He was hoodwinked by the thief who killed his father and escaped death with his father''s credit. He was really ashamed of his father Khan.


    The reason why Li Shimin bypassed the Heluo Uighur was not that the Heluo Uighur was used by others or the credit of Tu Li. These were not worth mentioning compared with the crime of stabbing the king. It was a group of Turkic generals who really let the Heluo Uighur escape. Li Shimin wanted to spare his life to win the hearts of a group of Turkic generals.


    "Thank you for the holy grace of Khan!" a group of Turkic generals cried with gratitude.


    "You''ve been scared for a day. Let''s go back and have a rest!" Li Shimin waved his hand and went back to the palace.


    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each other and sighed. His majesty treated the Turks like brothers and sisters, but the Turks deeply stabbed Li Shimin, which was a blow to Li Shimin.


    A group of Turkic generals left with guilt, but many Han ministers left with a flash of eyes and tacit understanding.


    Although ASHNA''s association rate deserves to die, there is nothing wrong. The contradiction between Turks and Han people has been very deep, and it is time to solve it. Especially after the assassination, not only are there cracks in the hearts of Turks, but the people of the Tang Dynasty are also excited.


    "Tell your majesty that I think the contradiction between Turks and Han people has reached the time to be solved." Wei Zheng led an advanced admonition.


    "Dear Aiqing, what do you mean? Just expose the matter." Li Shimin was surprised to see the ministers coming.


    Wei Zheng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty''s thought is too simple. My minister once advised against the internal relocation of Turks. Today''s event happened to confirm my minister''s concern. ASHNA''s association rate is by no means one. Many people want to return to the grassland among the Turkic ministries. In the long run, there will be disasters and chaos, and even the crisis of five random China will reappear. It''s time for the Turkic ministries to move back to the grassland north of the Great Wall."


    Li Shimin frowned. If it had been before, Li Shimin must have thought that Wei Zheng was alarmist, and ASHNA''s association rate wanted to incite Tuli to revolt when the Turks moved in. Fortunately, Tuli didn''t listen. Otherwise, with Tuli''s reputation, Li Shimin would have gathered all Turkic departments to oppose the Tang Dynasty, causing fatal damage to the Tang Dynasty.


    However, Li Ji shook his head and said, "I object. Releasing Turks back to the grassland can only be releasing tigers back to the mountain. How powerful Turks were in those years. Have you forgotten?"


    From the perspective of the military, Li Ji resolutely opposes putting the Turkic ministries back to the grassland. Otherwise, once the Turks become bigger again, I''m afraid there will be no day of stability on the northern border of Datang.


    As soon as Li Shimin''s face changed, the alliance of Weishui was a disgrace in his life. Finally, the whole country defeated the Turks, which was a disgrace. Now he has to release the Turks back. Li Shimin can''t do it. Moreover, the wolf nature shown by ASHNA''s association rate just now surprised Li Shimin.


    "Turks originally belong to the grassland, but now they move to the south of the Yellow River. Naturally, they miss their hometown and change sooner or later." civil servants urged the release of Turks back to the grassland.


    "No, the Turkic troops are capable of fighting, which is the most elite combat power in the repeated operations of the Tang Dynasty. We must not let them go." the Turkic troops are the most elite cavalry and an important part of the Tang military. Naturally, the military is unwilling to give up this elite combat power.


    For a while, civil and military disputes continued.


    "Well, I treat all Turkic departments so favorably, can''t I let them return?" Li Shimin experienced the founding war. Naturally, he knew the importance of Turkic cavalry and was unwilling to give up this power easily.


    The eldest sun Wuji smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty doesn''t know that the days of the Turkic ministries are much worse than before. I''m afraid there have been complaints in his heart. Only then did ASHNA''s association rate find an opportunity to gather so many traitors."


    "Why did the eldest sun Aiqing say that?" Li Shimin asked.


    Changsun Wuji looked back at the last Mohist son of the ministers and said with a bitter smile: "I''m afraid it''s still from the rise of Mohism. Before that, all Turkic departments were very complacent in the south of the Yellow River. Naturally, no one was willing to rebel. Even if it was Tuli''s prestige and reputation, I''m afraid they couldn''t do anything. I''m afraid this is also the reason why Tuli kept himself in line."


    The crowd nodded slowly. He didn''t believe that Tuli was really loyal to Datang, but he just didn''t have a chance.


    Sun Wuji continued: "However, after the rise of Mohism, the Turks first traded high spirits for cattle and horses on the grassland. Naturally, the Turks were the first to bear the brunt. Herdsmen exchanged livestock for wine one after another, resulting in the outflow of livestock in the Tang Dynasty and the decline of the lives of the Turks. However, this is not the most fatal. What really made the Turks angry was the manufacture of Mohist Trojans, rickshaws and self-propelled bicycles all over the Tang Dynasty The driving became very popular, which brought down the price of cattle and horses. All Turkic departments suffered heavy losses and complained. "


    Li Shimin suddenly realized that the Turkic ministries were greedy and drinkable. They were exchanged by the Mojia village for a large number of cattle and horses with spirits. However, the price of cattle and horses fell sharply. The originally rich life became difficult in a short time, which made the Turkic ministries complain.


    "What''s your excuse for Merton?"


    When Li Shimin heard the speech, he couldn''t help staring at Merton. He found that the Mexican catfish would set off a catfish effect wherever it went, and even the Turkic departments in the North could not escape the poison of the Mexican.


    "What Lord Chang Sun said is indeed true." Merton admitted with a wry smile when he heard the speech, and suddenly his voice changed. "However, Weichen believes that the fundamental reason for the Turkic ministries lies in themselves."

 Chapter 1182

    "Oneself?" the ministers frowned.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, at present, the biggest problem of the Turkic ministries is that there are more people and less land. In those years, your majesty moved nearly 200000 Turkic ministries to the south of the Yellow River, took great care of them, protected them from the bitter cold and hunger in the north, and gave them superior pastures. In the past ten years, the population of the Turkic ministries has doubled. Now the Turkic population in the south of the Yellow River is nearly 400000. The place originally planned to resettle herdsmen was afraid I''m afraid it won''t be enough. "


    "Four hundred thousand!" the civil and military officials were surprised that they had ignored such important data.


    Merton smiled bitterly: "If the people of the Tang Dynasty were good at farming, it would be easy to feed these 400000 people in such a large place. However, the nomadic habits of various Turkic departments are difficult to change. In order to feed the population, even if Weichen invented the method of green forage storage, it still can not meet the needs of Turks. A large number of cattle and sheep are about to gnaw the grassland into sand. Recently, the Mu Us desert has expanded continuously, and Turks are still in trouble Each ministry is the culprit. Over the years, Lord Sun''s achievements in governing the Yellow River can''t compare with the destruction of the Turkic ministries. "


    The crowd couldn''t help but be in an uproar. They didn''t expect that the destructive power of the Turks was so great. Of course, the Turks were herding hard. I''m afraid it had something to do with the invention of spirits in Mojia village.


    "This is not the most serious. In order to feed more livestock, herdsmen can only herd more desperately. In this way, a vicious circle will be formed. Within a hundred years, the land of Turkic migration must turn from grassland to desert, or Turkic herdsmen will nomad farther away, encroach on Farmers'' farmland, resulting in disputes between herdsmen and Han people." Merton said.


    Hundreds of officials nodded one after another. The population of Turkic ministries increased sharply, grasslands became sandy land, the price of cattle and horses decreased, the income of herdsmen decreased, and the disputes between Turkic herdsmen and Han farmers were all undercurrent. It turned out that these contradictions were hidden in the illusion of peaceful coexistence between Turks and Datang, and finally broke out in an all-round way in this assassination incident.


    "Your Majesty, I think it is the general trend to put all Turkic departments back to the grassland. The late one will suffer." the eldest sun Wuji gritted his teeth and got up and agreed.


    Wei Zheng seconded: "The Turks are rebellious and hard to tame. Although his majesty treats them sincerely, he doesn''t know how to repay them. In those days, the Turks'' habit was to plunder South whenever there was a shortage of livestock. Now it''s even harder to change their bad habit. Once his majesty can''t meet the Turks'' appetite, the Turks will betray his majesty. Just as ASHNA''s association rate said, the Turks are a wolf and a wolf who can''t feed well."


    This time, it''s just an assassination, and the next time, I''m afraid, it''s a large-scale rebellion. At that time, I''m afraid the Turks will be even worse.


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "a mere 400000 people?......"


    Merton shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, in just ten years, the Turkic population has reached 400000. In another ten years, I''m afraid it will be 800000 or 1000000. Will your majesty still be able to meet the requirements of the Turks? Will there be so many grasslands in the Tang Dynasty to accommodate the Turks?"


    Li Shimin''s heart sank. At that time, either the Turks brought down the Tang Dynasty or the Turks set off a greater rebellion.


    Seeing that chaotang had always agreed to let the Turks return to the grassland, Li Ji frowned and said, "did you ever think that once these 400000 Turks were herders in Datang and nearly 100000 troops in the grassland?"


    The 100000 troops are an important force in any place and are an important help in the hands of Datang. If they return to the grassland, Datang''s fetters on them will be weakened. Coupled with the influence of Turks on the grassland, once they become enemies with Datang, it will be a disaster.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. The reason why he wanted to leave Turks was that he valued the military power of Turks.


    The court was silent. How could they not know the importance of Turks? But just as the Mohist School said, the world is safe and sound, and the Tathagata is not responsible for the Qing Dynasty.


    "In this way, the minister has his own way." a new voice appeared in the court hall. When they saw it, it was the new general of the firearms army, sun Chong. He looked like a weak scholar, but wore a brand-new armor, which was very different from the generals.


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and said in surprise, "can Chong''er have a good plan?"


    The eldest son said proudly with a look on his face: "Tell your majesty, the problem of the imperial court is that the Turks want to return to the grassland, and the imperial court is worried that the border will be unstable after these Turks return. In that case, why should your majesty release the Turks to the grassland and use the money and food used by your majesty to appease the Turks? Turks are young and strong. In this way, you can meet the requirements of all Turks without more money and food Don''t worry about the instability of the border, but you can turn the Turkic cavalry into the help of the Tang military. "


    "Wonderful! Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog son. General changsun''s move can be said to kill two birds with one stone."


    "Your Majesty really knows talents, and General Chang sun is really good at both literature and martial arts."


    Many ministers praised Li Shimin and his eldest sun Wuji when they heard the speech.


    Changsun Wuji stared at changsun Chong, and then said modestly, "the dog is ignorant and speaks nonsense. You are wrong."


    The eldest sun Wuji was modest in his mouth, but a proud smile appeared on his face.


    Li Shimin showed a satisfied look. He tried his best to overcome the public opinion and let Chang sun Chong serve as the general of the firearm army, which has been criticized by many people. Now Chang sun Chong offered a good plan and greatly raised his face.


    "What do you think of Chong''er''s strategy?" Li Shimin asked the generals as usual. In fact, his heart has been biased towards this strategy.


    Many ministers agreed that this policy can indeed solve the current situation of Turks, meet the requirements of Turks, and will not let Turkic ministries lose control. I''m afraid it''s the best way.


    Just when the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty thought that he had found a way to achieve both ends, an disharmonious voice suddenly said: "The Turks are naturally satisfied. If one day there are strange Turks like ASHNA''s association rate, endure humiliation, bear heavy burdens, maliciously flatter, one day have power, shake their arms, and hundreds of thousands of foreign recruits respond, I''m afraid they will sweep the Central Plains immediately. This policy is no less than handing a sword to the Turks."


    All civil and military officials were shocked. They immediately felt that their backs were cold and sweating. They turned their heads hard. They saw that it was the Mexican family who spoke against them.


    "What''s more, all the officers and men of the Tang Dynasty adopt the government soldier system. There is no pay for sending troops to war, but there is pay for the recruitment system of Turks. How can hundreds of thousands of government soldiers think about it? Are they still willing to fight for the Tang Dynasty?" Merton asked.


    Li Shimin could not help looking embarrassed. He had just been blinded by this method of having the best of both worlds and was not aware of the risks. This policy allowed the Turks to directly control the military power and was very unfair to the government military system.


    "Moreover, today''s Grassland is no longer what the Turks want to go back. After the Turks moved south, the original playground belonging to the Turks has been divided up by Xue yantuo, tiele and Khitan. I''m afraid it''s no less than a sheep into a tiger''s mouth to let a group of Turks return to the grassland. If your majesty supports the Turks'' rash return to the grassland, it will arouse the dissatisfaction of all the ministries. Will your majesty have another northern expedition Merton asked again. No one is willing to spit out the fat in his mouth. Once the Turks return to the grassland, I''m afraid there will be disputes in the world.


    Merton''s three objections were penetrating, in sharp contrast to Chang sun Chong''s boasting, and they stood high and made a judgment.

 Chapter 1183

    Chang sun Chong''s face suddenly turned green and red. He never thought that he thought that the perfect policy would be approved by the Mo family. At present, he refused to accept his airway: "my vulgar view naturally doesn''t enter the eyes of the Mo family. I don''t know what the Mo Hou has."


    Now Merton has no official position, only the position of marquis. Chang sun Chong deliberately calls him the Marquis of Merton, which obviously means to satirize Merton.


    The ministers looked forward to seeing the Mohist family. They should know that although Mohist family was not pleasant in the court, its wisdom was recognized all over the world. Maybe they could find a way to solve the Turkic problem.


    Merton took a deep breath: "Weichen believes that there is only one way to completely solve the Turkic problem and integrate Turks and Han people. From then on, there is no distinction between Turks and Han people, only the people of the Tang Dynasty can naturally solve the Turkic problem."


    All civil and military officials frowned. How can it be done easily without the distinction between Turks and Han people? Li Shimin has attracted Turks for ten years. In the end, naturally, he still can''t let Turks return, and how can he be solved by Mohist''s empty words and white teeth.


    The eldest sun Chong said sarcastically, "don''t the great Mohists only boast. The customs and habits of Turks and Han people are different. How can they be integrated?"


    In Chang sun Chong''s opinion, the plan of the Mohist school is quite different from his. As long as he controls his plan well and pays attention to holding the Turkic knife in his hand, he can naturally reduce the possibility of alien rebellion. The Mohist''s plan is just heaven''s way. In his opinion, Turks are barbarians. Datang just needs to use it, let alone make Turks equal with Datang. "


    Merton shook his head and said, "if it had been before, it would have been impossible to integrate Turks. However, with the continuous victory of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has become the first of all countries. When all countries come to Korea, the time is ripe to integrate Turks."


    Li Shimin''s face was dignified and said in a deep voice, "come on."


    "People in the Tang Dynasty are not distinguished by skin color and appearance, but wearing Han clothes and observing Chinese etiquette. Even if they look like Hu people, they are no different from people in the Tang Dynasty.


    Take Turks for example. I think the Turks who have lived in Chang''an City for many years are no different from the Han people. General Qixin Heli and general zhisiqili, including general ashnasimo in the court, are more loyal to the court. I believe your majesty and the princes of the court can feel the same. "Merton said.


    Many ministers nodded one after another. They also had contacts with these Turkic generals. Naturally, they knew that what Merton said was true. These Turkic generals wore Chinese clothes, spoke Chinese and performed Han rites, which was really not much different from those in the Tang Dynasty.


    Merton continued: "Weichen believes that the Turkic herdsmen in the moved places also have the same intention to the people of Datang. After all, the life in the bitter and cold places in the north is too hard, and most people still yearn for a warm and comfortable life in Datang. Among the Turkic departments, some want to return to the grassland and some want to stay in the moved places, otherwise the ASHNA association rate is not just this momentum."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. After all, the imperial court allocates so much money and food every year, which can naturally win the hearts of some people. If you''re not polite, the days of Turkic herdsmen are much better than many people in the Tang Dynasty. After all, the people of the Tang Dynasty have increased food production in recent years, feeding poultry and eating meat.


    Seeing that the people had been moved, Merton said with a trace of self-confidence: "in that case, why don''t your majesty leave his heart to the herdsmen of Datang and return them to the herdsmen of grassland with one heart. In this way, in this way, the strength of Turks will be divided into two again and will not be separated from the control of Datang."


    "That''s it?" the eldest son frowned and sneered.


    The ministers of civil and military affairs also frowned. If it was so simple to leave a batch and return a batch, there would be no headache for the princes of the court. After all, people were separated from each other. Who could have thought that ASHNA''s association rate and he Luohu could plot a rebellion.


    Merton looked at the face of the Lord chaotang and understood the people''s thoughts. He couldn''t help explaining: "it''s actually very simple to judge whether a person is interested in Datang. It depends on whether he admires my Datang culture and is willing to take the initiative to accept my Datang civilization and etiquette."


    "Take the initiative to accept?" all the officials were thoughtful and thought of the Hu merchants who had come thousands of miles from the silk road.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, taking the initiative to accept the civilization of the Tang Dynasty is the first step to distinguish the people who are distracted from the Tang Dynasty. The second step is to integrate these people who are interested in the Tang Dynasty. Your majesty divides the Tang Dynasty into ten ways to govern. Why not divide the other ten ways to govern the Turks, or the people of other nationalities who are interested in the Tang Dynasty."


    "Ten ways outside?" Li Shimin moved in his heart.


    Proficiency in a particular line is not enough. If I want to join the Datang, I can apply it to the ten foreign languages, and I will extend the green registered residence to the Tang Dynasty, and enjoy the right to get medical treatment at a fair price or to pay taxes at a fair price in order to distinguish the ordinary people from all other nationalities. People, so as to absorb the most powerful soldiers, rich businessmen and even talents of all ethnic groups in the world for the use of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, all talents in the world flow to the Tang Dynasty, and all heroes in the world enter the hub of our Tang Dynasty. "Merton said proudly.


    "All heroes in the world enter the hub of Datang!"


    Suddenly, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly stagnated and looked at Merton inconceivably. They couldn''t help but marvel at Merton''s ten external plans. Even company commander sun Chong opened his mouth and couldn''t think of any refutation. His plan was only aimed at the Turks, while the Mohist plan was aimed at all ethnic groups outside the Tang Dynasty, even purposefully selecting the best and eliminating the worst. In this way, Just paying a registered residence and a name will yield Unestimable gains.


    Even Li Shimin''s eyes are colorful. Under the hint of Merton''s ten road plan, he already has several methods to deal with the Turkic situation.


    "Finally, the plan of the ten outer ten is just an overmuch, the purpose of Datang is to integrate it into one body. The purpose of all the people in the world is to get ten registered residence in Datang. The purpose is to gain the benefits. In my mind, I still feel that the registered residence is the unforgettable tribe. What I really want is the next generation of these talents. Tang Shidao has no objection to the people of the Tang Dynasty. These next generation were born in the Tang Dynasty, lived in the Tang Dynasty and were deeply influenced by hundreds of families. So far, it only takes two generations to integrate them with the Tang Dynasty. "Merton shook his arms.


    His idea integrates the Eight Banners system of the Qing Dynasty and the green book system of the United States. They are both classics of the foreign-related system. Naturally, they are ahead of this era and easily conquer everyone.

 Chapter 1184

    The ministers of civil and military affairs were immediately impressed. Naturally, they knew the benefits of national integration. In the past, national integration was passive, extremely slow, and needed to experience the pain of war. The outer ten road plan made national integration more active and faster, and gathered elites of different nationalities to Datang. While expanding Datang, they continued to weaken the surrounding ministries, The benefits can be seen by the naked eye.


    Moreover, this national integration does not need war, or even more thorough. It only takes two generations to cultivate a large number of elites of foreign Hu and inner Han, rather than treating Turks as before. When the Tang Dynasty was not rich, it also allocated money and food to support 200000 bitter Turk herdsmen. As a result, it also raised a number of white eyed wolves.


    The eldest sun Chong refused to accept the way: "although the external ten plans of mohou are good, they are far sighted. However, the Turkic departments are close to worry and can''t hydrolyze their thirst. I''m afraid the current situation of Turks can''t wait for two generations!"


    Today''s Turks are like a powder keg. They don''t know when they will explode. Two generations can''t expect it.


    Morton looked at Chang sun Chong with pity, shook his head and said, "General Chang sun, do you know what is the biggest difference between the children of the aristocratic family and the children of the hundred families? That is, what the children of the aristocratic family have is destined to have at birth, and what the children of the hundred families want needs their own knowledge and wisdom."


    The Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty sighed at the speech and had no objection to Merton''s words. Except for Chang sun Chong, I''m afraid every achievement here was not bought by family background, including the Mohist family. Even if the Mohist family was not born in the Mohist family, I''m afraid he can still make a world with his intelligence.


    The eldest sun Chong immediately looked embarrassed. Naturally, he could hear that Merton satirized that he had his current position only by his family background. He could not help gnashing his teeth and said, "that general wants to hear what the great MOH family has to say."


    Merton Lang: "We can naturally integrate other ethnic groups. However, in the Turkic ministries, we can accelerate the promotion of the outer ten road plan. First, in the military, we should promote the learning of Chinese characters and speaking Chinese in the Turkic armies, focus on the idea of loyalty and patriotism, give priority to the promotion of Turkic officers and men who learn Chinese characters and Chinese, or support these Turkic officers and men who are interested in our Tang Dynasty to control the tribe and defeat the foreigners with foreigners, As for Turkic cavalry who can''t learn or resist learning Chinese, they will gradually eliminate the cavalry queue.


    Second, among the people, the herdsmen of all Turkic ministries who join the outer ten roads enjoy the support of the court, give priority to the choice of superior pastures, tax relief and other concessions, and divide the Turks into two classes. One is the people who yearn for the Tang Dynasty, which naturally has many benefits, and the other is the people who stick to the Turkic customs, which has no benefits. I believe that the Turks themselves must know how to choose Come on, the court doesn''t need to spend much money and property. It can also control Turks. "


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. Merton''s plan was nothing more than to lure them. As long as he was interested in the Tang Dynasty, he believed that someone must join the ten outside the Tang Dynasty. As for those who were hostile to the Tang Dynasty, they could only be abandoned and slowly weakened, without posing any threat to the Tang Dynasty.


    "Third, even if foreigners join the outer ten roads of the Tang Dynasty, we can''t fully trust them. All the cavalry of the outer ten roads need to be stationed in different places. Grassland cavalry are stationed in the western regions or Tuyuhun, and so are the western regions cavalry and Tuyuhun cavalry. Rao is so, we can''t help but guard against it. Every 100 people''s cavalry can''t be of the same race. Like a 100 people''s cavalry, the Han cavalry accounts for 50%, The Turkic cavalry accounted for 20%, and Xue yantuo, tiele, Qidan, Gaochang and Tuyuhun were divided into 30%. The rotation is also a rotation in batches. In this way, no matter which film has different intentions, it is impossible to pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty. "


    When Merton finished, the Tai Chi hall was silent. Everyone took a breath. They looked at Merton one by one, as if they knew the Mojia son again,


    According to Merton''s idea, the alien who was originally a threat to Datang will immediately become the biggest help of Datang, and unknowingly integrate with Datang. At the same time, Datang will become more and more powerful and constantly weaken foreigners.


    "What a ten way plan." all civil and military ministers couldn''t help cheering in their hearts.


    "Mohou took it for granted. Han people, Turks, Xue yantuo and other ministries coexist in the same army. How is this possible?" Chang sun Chong retorted unconvinced that the military system of the Tang Dynasty has always been dominated by government soldiers. Whenever there is a war, he begins to recruit grassland cavalry. Naturally, the same clan is the same army, and there are generals in the clan to lead the troops. However, mojiazi wants the Han people and other nationalities to be the same army. The soldiers will not be connected. How can he March and fight.


    "It was never possible before, but now with the method of homonymy, it is not impossible for all ethnic groups to coexist in one army." Merton has not answered yet, and Kong Yingda took the lead.


    Before that, all ethnic groups were unable to communicate with each other and did not listen to the command at all. Naturally, it was impossible to coexist in the same army. However, now that there is the method of homonymy, everyone can communicate in Chinese. The obstacle to forming a common army has naturally been solved. The outer ten programs can make the Confucian method of homonymy shine, and Kong Yingda naturally


    As soon as Kong Yingda stated his position, civil servants met one after another. In their view, the outer ten plan is the peak of the cultural rule of the Tang Dynasty. It takes no soldiers and one person to bring the world''s different nationalities back. Although this plan was put forward by the Mohist school, it uses the method of homonymy of Confucianism.


    After the civil servants made their stand, a group of military generals also agreed with the outer ten way plan. After all, Turks and even the cavalry of all parts of the grassland are very important to the Tang Dynasty. Merton''s outer ten way plan is obviously much more reliable than Chang sun Chong''s recruitment system. It can not only continue to let the cavalry of all parts of the grassland work for the Tang Dynasty, but also firmly control it.


    "Well, in that case, think twice and decide to start the external ten way plan." Li Shimin finally took a deep breath. Datang was an extremely open Dynasty, with all rivers flowing into the sea. Li Shimin called himself tiankhan and thought he could bring a bowl of water to the world, but the assassination of the Turkic rebels made him understand the current situation.


    Datang dragons and fishes jumbled together into the Tang Dynasty. They must take the essence of their products and discard their dross, and they will concentrate on the people who are in the heart of the Tang Dynasty, and suppress the people who are hostile to the Tang Dynasty, even if they are willing to part with the force.


    "Your Majesty is wise."


    In the angry eyes of Chang sun Chong, Merton arched his hands.


    So far, the external ten programs that have influenced Datang for hundreds of years have finally taken shape. Since then, Datang has really become the center of the world and the country everyone yearns for. Even if some people sneak into China and wash dishes in dark restaurants, they have to breathe this civilized and free air.

 Chapter 1185

    Merton''s outer ten road plan is only general, but it still needs a lot of details to be implemented. The important officials in the court attached great importance to the outer ten road plan and soon continued to discuss and improve the outer ten road plan with Li Shimin.


    Although Merton''s level was low, he proposed it after all and was left behind. He was satisfied that the Manchurian leader took out all the things about the outer ten plans in his mind.


    "Cross the river and tear down the bridge!"


    Merton walked out of the Tai Chi hall and looked at the ordinary and respected officials with grandma wolf''s smile. He couldn''t help humming coldly.


    Seeing that it was getting late, Merton was ready to go back to the ink house. Now Princess Changle and her children are still staying in Jiucheng palace with empress changsun. I''m afraid he will return tomorrow. Today he can only keep an empty room alone.


    Merton just walked out of the palace. Sure enough, he saw the Mohist team outside the palace. It was Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, who was led by her.


    "Master!" Wu Meiniang saw Merton appear and hurried forward. When the Mojia village heard the news of the assassination, it was scared in a cold sweat. Later, she heard that Merton was safe, so she sent Wu Meiniang to meet him.


    Merton nodded and was about to get on the carriage when a hurried voice came from behind.


    "Please help me!"


    Merton turned his head and saw that it was Xi Junmai, the commander of the forbidden guards.


    Merton was surprised and said, "brother Xi, why do you say this?"


    Xi Junmai smiled bitterly and said, "don''t you know that? Xi was ordered to protect your Majesty''s safety. However, the assassination of your majesty occurred in 90% of the palace, which frightened your majesty and the queen, and even implicated Mo Hou. If Mo Hou hadn''t turned the tide, I''m afraid today''s event would have caused great disaster. Xi''s death is not worth regretting. However, if his majesty and the queen were implicated, he would have died."


    Thinking of this, Merton couldn''t help sighing. What a thrill it was in the early morning. If he hadn''t awakened the people with the sound of a gun, sun wukai had an idea and found a way to distinguish the Turkic rebels from the Tang army, I''m afraid he would really be succeeded by ASHNA''s association rate.


    "Brother Xi wants me to plead with you in front of your majesty?" Merton asked.


    Xi Junmai shook his head and said, "no, how can Xi be so difficult for Mo Hou? What I want is the peerless weapon in Mo Hou''s hand to create an invincible forbidden guard for his majesty, which is enough to eliminate any invading enemy and let his majesty rest easy and make atonement for his achievements."


    After this battle, Xi Junmai saw the wounds of the bodies of the Turkic rebels attacking the Bazhong palace and couldn''t help taking a breath. Half of the rebels who died in mohou''s hands with peerless weapons were killed at one blow. Xi Junmai believed that once the forbidden guards had such weapons in their hands, let alone hundreds of Turkic rebels, thousands of rebels would never return, Enough to keep your majesty safe.


    Merton frowned and said, "it''s not that Mo is unwilling to help brother Xi! It''s that the current technology of this weapon is not perfect and it''s extremely difficult to build. It''s not enough to support the large-scale equipment of the forbidden guards."


    Xi Junmai waved his hand and said, "it won''t be large-scale equipment. It only needs a team of 100 or even a team of 10."


    What he has to do now is not to equip weapons on a large scale, but to make atonement for Li Shimin. After all, the assassination took place when he was responsible for the security of 90% palace. In any case, he is duty bound.


    Merton took a sympathetic look at Xi Jun''s purchase. According to Xi Jun''s deployment, there was no negligence at all, but who could have thought that it was the internal guard who rebelled and assassinated. I''m afraid even Li Shimin never thought that the Turks would rebel.


    "Brother Xi, have you ever thought that this peerless weapon has unparalleled power. As long as you aim at the target, you can hit it within 50 steps. It is a double-edged sword, which can hurt both people and yourself. If another person with an evil heart has this weapon, I''m afraid your majesty will not be so lucky to assassinate this time. Unless you can create a method to defend this peerless weapon, you must not put this weapon near your majesty "Merton warned.


    Xi Jun''s face turned pale when he bought the weapon. He only saw the attack power of the peerless weapon, but subconsciously ignored the danger of the peerless weapon. You should know that Xi Jun''s face is not a frontal attack, but a conspiracy to assassinate. Once the rebels try to get the weapon, I''m afraid Li Shimin will be more dangerous. If Merton really helped Xi Jun buy it, I''m afraid he won''t make atonement for his achievements, Instead, it''s a mistake plus a mistake.


    "Thank you for reminding me!" Xi Jun couldn''t help but look gray. He originally wanted to make atonement with the peerless weapon in Merton''s hand, but now it doesn''t seem to work.


    "But if brother Xi wants to make atonement for his achievements, there is not no way." Merton''s words turned.


    When Xi Jun bought the meal, his eyes brightened and he looked at the Mojia Zi with surprise. To know the methods in the mouth of the Mojia Zi, they are all good prescriptions. In the Tai Chi hall, the outer ten plans that make a group of important officials feel like treasures are the best example.


    "Please also teach me!" Xi Jun bought a solemn gift and asked for advice.


    Morton stepped back and said, "brother Xi, you''re welcome. We''re all for your Majesty''s safety. We deserve it."


    "Lord Mo is loyal to his majesty, and heaven and earth can learn from him!" Xi Jun bought a serious flattery to Morton.


    As soon as Merton pulled out the corner of his mouth, he was also for his own safety. He didn''t want to go through another assassination.


    "I wonder if brother Xi has heard of such a story. The Chu people have a shield and a spear. They say, ''my shield is strong, and nothing can sink.'' they also say, ''the benefits of my spear can sink everything.'' or, ''how can I use the spear of my son to sink the shield of my son?'' people can respond. The shield that a husband can''t sink and the spear that can''t sink can''t stand together." Merton asked.


    Xi Jun nodded and said, "this is the article in Han Feizi. Difficult one.


    "The forbidden guard led by brother Xi is your Majesty''s shield, and the assassin is the attacking spear," Merton said.


    Xi Jun''s face turned red when he bought it. Merton''s words made him ashamed. The forbidden guard led by him boasted that our shield was strong and that nothing could sink. In reality, Xi Jun was beaten in the face. His shield was broken four layers by the Turkic rebels. He became the one who boasted about his words and deeds.


    "Han Feizi satirizes those people whose words and deeds are different, but Mo believes that there is a great knowledge between spear and shield. A spear can''t pierce a hard shield, but will give birth to a sharper spear until it pierces the shield. When the shield is pierced, it will continue to improve and become a stronger shield until it can resist a sharper spear. This cycle goes on, although spear and shield interact with each other Opposites, but they can promote each other. The other side is stronger, not the strongest, only stronger, "Merton said.


    Xi Junmai nodded slowly. Now that his shield is broken, he will work hard and bow his head to Merton for advice, trying to build a stronger shield.


    "However, the invincible shield and the invincible spear cannot stand together. In reality, there will be assassins every day. Even if brother Xi once again makes the forbidden guard the strongest shield, he doesn''t know how sharp the spear is and when it will come. This shield will be broken one day." Merton said.


    Xi Jun''s scalp was numb when he bought the meal. He was going crazy. As a martial arts man, he was about to be dizzy by the philosophy of Mohist school. According to Merton''s meaning, he would be unable to prevent the assassin no matter what he did.


    Morton saw that Xi Jun''s purchase was about to collapse and finally stopped selling off. He said directly, "in that case, brother Xi might as well do something that the ancients didn''t do. Use the son''s spear to trap the son''s shield. If the spear is broken, continue to build the strongest spear. If the shield is broken, continue to build the strongest shield."


    When Xi Jun bought the meal, he was suddenly enlightened and said in surprise: "mohou means to divide the forbidden guard into two teams, one is a spear, dressed as an assassin and the other is a shield to protect his majesty. The two teams exercise comprehensively, trying to find out the shortcomings of the shield and make his majesty safe."


    Merton nodded with a smile and said, "not only that, you can also exchange spears and shields, and even bury insiders in contradictions, which increases the difficulty."


    "Thank you for your advice."


    The more you think about it, the more excited you are. This method is not limited to the moment, but allows your Majesty''s safety to be upgraded continuously until there are no more flaws and foolproof.


    Xi Junmai thanked him again and again before he turned and left. Only by perfecting this law as soon as possible can he make atonement for his meritorious deeds.


    "Mei Niang! Did you hear what the teacher said about the contradiction just now?" after Xi Junmai left, Merton said to Wu Mei Niang, who listened sideways.


    Wu Meiniang stood aside and said in a crisp voice, "go back to the master, the disciples have heard clearly!"


    "From today on, the theory of contradiction will become your schoolwork. There is great knowledge in it. Don''t treat it lightly. As a teacher, you will check it regularly." Merton Lang said.


    "Yes, master!"


    Wu Meiniang suddenly looked bitter and knew that her good day was over. However, from the degree of master''s attention, she could guess how much homework there was in the contradiction.


    "But according to master''s words, the knowledge of contradiction is one positive and one negative. It needs the cooperation of both sides. I''m afraid it''s difficult for me to complete it alone." Wu Meiniang thought in her heart.


    Suddenly Wu Meiniang thought of a coward who often took the law of the Tang Dynasty to strengthen her courage. Although Di Renjie was timid, he could still fight with her. It happened that the contradiction originated from the Legalists. It was most suitable to find him as a shield.


    And she''s going to be a spear.

 Chapter 1186

    At the residence of the law newspaper, di Renjie eagerly looked through the cases. In di Renjie''s eyes, these boring documents in the eyes of ordinary people are extremely wonderful. The sinister darkness of the people''s hearts, the methods of the Yamen''s investigation and the use of the law by the county magistrate are all knowledge for him.


    "Dare you ask the Dharma junior brother Di Renjie where Mei Niang has something to ask!" just as di Renjie was concentrating, Wu Meiniang''s voice immediately made him feel like a great enemy. He couldn''t help touching the law of the Tang Dynasty around him, which made him feel a little relieved.


    "Oh! It''s Mei Niang. Why are you free to come to the FA Bao today?" Han Fuzi heard the sound and saw Wu Mei Niang laughing.


    Wu Meiniang saluted Han Fuzi and said, "if you return to master, master has just returned to Beijing and assigned Meiniang lessons. It''s about the contradiction of legalism. It just needs the cooperation of younger martial brother Di Renjie."


    "Master, don''t be cheated by Wu Meiniang. She''s not a kind person who knows books, is reasonable, gentle and dignified." Di Renjie secretly complained in his heart. If the master really wants him to cooperate with Wu Meiniang, I''m afraid it will really fall into the hands of the witch. Even the law of the Tang Dynasty can''t protect him.


    "The contradiction of legalism." Han Fuzi couldn''t help but look at him. He was surprised and asked each other.


    Wu Meiniang did not hide, but answered one by one. When Han Fuzi heard Merton''s idea of contradiction, he was shocked.


    "Huaiying!" Han Fuzi shouted loudly.


    Hearing the master''s call, di Renjie came out reluctantly and said, "what''s the master''s command?"


    "Meiniang needs your help. First put what you have in hand and come back after helping Meiniang." Han Fuzi said.


    "Ah!"


    Di Renjie immediately looked reluctant. So, if Wu Meiniang didn''t let go, he would have to fall into Wu Meiniang''s hands all the time.


    "Whet haw, let''s go!"


    Wu Meiniang grabbed Di Renjie''s shoulder like an eagle catching a chicken.


    Looking at the disciple''s eyes for help, master Han smiled like an old fox and said in his heart, "huaiying, how can you not know Meiniang''s character as a teacher, but you will be grateful to master in the future."


    Thinking of Merton''s understanding of the theory of contradiction, Han Fuzi was very excited. The theory of contradiction will become a family''s speech in the future. Moreover, this theory comes from Legalists and involves Legalists. It must be due to Legalists in the future.


    "Let''s go!"


    Di Renjie followed Wu Meiniang in a dejected manner.


    "Don''t worry, let''s go to the vegetable market to see ashner''s association rate cut and make a decision." Wu Meiniang said excitedly.


    ASHNA''s association rate conspired to assassinate the emperor. Not killing the emperor is not enough to calm the people''s anger. However, ASHNA''s association rate involves the sensitive topic of Turks, and can only cut the mess quickly. The Ministry of punishment decided to publicly execute ASHNA''s association rate the next day.


    "Look at beheading!"


    Di Renjie was shocked and couldn''t help retreating. He didn''t dare to think of the scene of killing his head.


    "Coward, I''m afraid. You''re not determined to investigate and try in the future. Maybe you''ll be sentenced to death. You don''t even dare to look. You''re a legalist." Wu Meiniang mocked.


    Di Renjie''s face turned red when he was said to be in his mind, and the pride of the Legalists made him unable to shrink back. He had to harden his head and say, "Whoever dares not, go."


    Wu Meiniang immediately smiled proudly and said, "see, you obviously don''t want to go, but you have to go because of face. Isn''t this the embodiment of the theory of contradiction?"


    Di Renjie''s heart moved, which made him feel more about the contradiction. After understanding his psychology, di Renjie''s original reluctant pace accelerated a bit.


    Even in his heart, there was a faint impulse. He had been looking through all kinds of files and all kinds of cases of beheading in the book. However, he had never seen the real execution scene. Wu Meiniang forced him to see it and immediately opened the Pandora''s magic box in his heart.


    When they arrived at the vegetable market, the scene of ashner''s association rate had long been surrounded by a sea of people,


    "How do you squeeze in?" Di Renjie frowned.


    They are young, their bodies have not grown, they can''t see outside, they can''t squeeze in, and they can''t see the scene inside.


    "Come with me!"


    Wu Meiniang naturally had long been prepared and took Di Renjie to a wooden building not far away.


    "Elder martial sister, it''s almost quarter past noon."


    There have been Mohist children on the surrounding wooden buildings for a long time. They prepared the best position for them. When they saw Wu Meiniang coming, they turned aside.


    Wu Meiniang excitedly came to the window and handed Di Renjie a telescope. Di Renjie took it and saw that the execution ground was clearly visible in the telescope. The executioner''s chopper showed a dull light under the sunlight, which made Di Renjie''s just calm heart suddenly start banging again and quickly put down the telescope.


    "Dong!" with the sound of a drum, he said at noon.


    With a wave of his hand, several yamen guards escorted ASHNA''s association rate in a football shirt to the execution ground. ASHNA''s association rate was a serious criminal implicated in Turks and Datang. The prison officer was afraid of an accident and didn''t let ASHNA''s association rate out until the last moment.


    "White eyed wolf!"


    "Ungrateful!"


    "Turks get out of Datang!"


    The people of the Tang Dynasty denounced one after another. In the hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty, your majesty has been kind enough to the Turks. How many Han people were killed in the Turks'' attack on the Central Plains in those years, but Li Shimin did not kill anyone indiscriminately after defeating the Turks. Even the chief villain, Jieli Khan, was rewarded with high officials and high salaries, and solicited all Turks. However, the Turks were not satisfied and plotted to assassinate your majesty.


    "Ashner''s association rate, you don''t think of Jun''s kindness. You plot to assassinate Jun. your crime can be punished. Today, our palace is specially ordered by the holy order to execute." the censor shouted coldly.


    Ashner''s association rate was dishevelled, but his face was proud. He looked up and shouted: "everything I did was for Turks. Turks will always remember me. Today, although I died, I have face to face with Shibi Khan after death, and you are willing to sit in the dog of Datang. How can you face to see our ancestors Khan after death!"


    The officer in charge of decapitation hummed coldly, "when death is imminent, he is hard to talk back. It has arrived at 3:15 p.m. and he will be executed."


    As the beheading officer took out a beheading token and threw it on the ground, the executioner immediately held up the chopping knife, gave a loud drink and waved it down.


    "Ah!"


    Wu Meiniang was surprised and put down her telescope. After all, she was a teenage girl. She didn''t dare to watch such bloody scenes.


    However, Wu Meiniang didn''t find that di Renjie didn''t put down her telescope. In di Renjie''s sight, she looked at the people of the Tang Dynasty who were cheering with ASHNA''s association rate, and looked at the gloomy Turks in the distance. She couldn''t help sighing in her heart.


    "Ashner''s association rate is a rebel in the hearts of Han people and a hero in the hearts of Turks. It''s strange that heroes and rebels are integrated, but spears and shields are integrated!" Di Renjie sighed.

 Chapter 1187

    "Your Majesty, ashner''s association rate has been executed! He Luohu''s exile to Lingnan will leave today."


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of justice, respectfully reported to Li Shimin that so far, the two main conspirators of the assassination have all been subdued. On the surface, the change of 90% palace has ended. However, everyone knows that the real undercurrent has just begun.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. This matter is related to the relationship between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty. It can be controlled to a minimum that only a few people are involved. This is the best result for both the Tang Dynasty and the Turks.


    "Inform your majesty that the chief culprit of this conspiracy against the case has been punished, and more loyal people have emerged. Many loyal guards have sacrificed to protect your majesty, and many loyal generals have made great contributions. If there are mistakes, they will be punished, and if there are merit, they will be rewarded. The minister wants to ask for merit for these loyal generals." Fang Xuanling said, he is the first of all officials, It is reasonable for him to come forward to ask for merit for the forbidden guards, but his loyalty with open mouth and closed mouth is somewhat meaningful.


    Li Shimin''s face slowed a little, nodded and said, "every soldier who died will be given three times the pension, and every soldier who participated in the rescue will be given an extra year of silver as a reward, and other meritorious generals will be given a heavy reward."


    After all, the traitor is only a few people, and most people are still loyal to him, which makes him feel a little better.


    "I would like to thank your majesty for his generous gift." Fang Xuanling solemnly saluted Li Shimin.


    Li Ji, acting as the Minister of the Ministry of war, followed Fang Xuanling. "Among the skills of rescue, marquis Mo has the skill of warning. When the guard of the eighth heavy palace was seriously injured, he led the guard of the eighth heavy palace to kill dozens of rebels, and led the disabled soldiers to support the ninth heavy palace, frightening away the association rate of ASHNA, the leader of the rebels, so that his majesty can turn the crisis into safety and take the lead."


    The civil and military ministers were in an uproar. They only heard that mojiazi had made contributions, but they didn''t expect that mojiazi should play such a great role in the assassination. When they thought of this, they couldn''t help thinking of a rumor that mojiazi had a peerless weapon in his hand and the victim would die.


    "This is what I should do. I dare not take credit for it." Merton said. After all, he was also on the rebel attack list for self-protection.


    Li Shimin looked at Merton softly for the first time, nodded slowly and said, "if you don''t receive merit, how can others get along with themselves?"


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Morton bowed his hand without refusing.


    Li Shimin nodded and said, "Merton has the merit of saving the driver. He was promoted to the next level, from the fifth grade to the fourth grade, and the position of firearm supervisor was restored."


    Such a young four grade official! When the officials looked at Merton, they couldn''t help admiring him. Once upon a time, when they were promoted to the position of fourth grade, their hair was gray, but the Mohist son was young and reached it gently. However, no one had any objection this time. After all, the rescue work was there, and no one dared to object.


    Even the restoration of the post of firearm supervisor for liquor offering has not been opposed. Firstly, the firearm supervisor has been divided into two, and the importance of the post of firearm supervisor for liquor offering has been greatly reduced. Moreover, even the Western Turks and Tubo have infinitely raised the importance of Mohism and listed it as a must kill. If the Tang Dynasty leaves it idle again, I''m afraid it will be criticized, Not to mention the peerless weapon in the hands of mohou has begun to show its power. The firearm supervisor can shine only in the hands of mohuzi, and the position of firearm supervisor offering wine can only belong to mohuzi.


    "Yes!" Murton bowed.


    The eldest sun Chong at the end of the military general couldn''t help looking strange. He had just divided the firearm army from the firearm prison, and in the twinkling of an eye, the Mohist son took control of the firearm prison again. I''m afraid their gratitude and resentment will continue.


    Li Ji continued: "sun wukai, the commander of Zhechong school, guards the jiuzhong palace, is loyal to his duty, uses his quick wisdom to distinguish between the enemy and us, and sticks to it until the reinforcements arrive. It should be a secondary achievement."


    "I am willing to serve your majesty to death." sun wukai flopped down on his knees in the Tai Chi hall and excitedly expressed his loyalty to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin nodded his head. He had just experienced rebellion and liked to listen to loyal words. Then he said, "sun wukai''s guard has made great contributions. He rose from the sixth grade school captain to the fifth grade Zhonglang general, and ordered to grant the title of son of Kaiguo county."


    When sun wukai heard the speech, he suddenly kowtowed to Li Shimin and said with gratitude: "thank you for your grace."


    Wupin Zhonglang general may be achieved in his lifetime, but the title of Kaiguo Xianzi may be difficult for him to achieve all his life. Li Shimin''s reward must be heartless.


    "Qin Huaiyu and other school captains chased the enemy and captured ASHNA''s association rate as the last achievement." Li Shimin bowed down.


    Qin Huaiyu bowed out and said, "Your Majesty should die because of the poor rescue."


    Li Shimin said, "you know your shame and then you are brave. You can atone for your meritorious deeds and capture ashner''s association rate. You deserve a reward. All three of you have risen from the sixth grade to the fifth grade lieutenant general."


    "Thank you, your majesty." the three relaxed heavily. Their judgment was correct. It was the greatest luck to be able to make atonement.


    Li Shimin gave rewards to the next meritorious soldiers. Of course, the strength was not as great as the first three, but they were all given generous gifts one by one.


    In the whole process, only one person was the most lost, that is, Xi Junmai. As a general responsible for guarding Li Shimin''s safety, he encountered an assassination, and he could not get rid of his relationship anyway.


    Just when everyone thought that the reward was over, the new Zhonglang listed Wu Kai, a descendant of Kaiguo County, and said again: "I inform your majesty that I have a play."


    "Oh! What does Sun Aiqing have?" Li Shimin was impressed by sun wukai and said with a smile.


    Sun wukai solemnly said, "when I watched the assassination, I found that there were great mistakes in the plan to protect your majesty. I couldn''t sleep at night and came up with a comprehensive plan to protect your majesty all night."


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and said, "please tell me more."


    Sun Wu said in a cheerful voice: "I believe that among the generals, there are frequent personal contacts, and both the Wuzhong palace and the Liuzhong palace have been broken by the rebels. The military should be like a mountain of military orders, and no one can waste their privacy. Second, the armies of the forbidden guard should be equipped with secret words to prevent unknown people from sneaking in. If they can''t match the secret words, they will never let them go, so as to prevent being taken advantage of by the enemy. Third,...."


    "Finally, I think the strength around your majesty should be strengthened. I heard that there are peerless weapons in the hands of Mo sacrificial wine. If everyone around your majesty wears peerless weapons, I''m afraid no one in the world can get close to your majesty." Sun Wu said in a cheerful voice.


    Coincidentally, not only did Xi Jun buy the peerless weapon in Merton''s hand, but even sun wukai also stared at it. The killing weapon was enough to make people in the army excited.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this weapon is not mature and is not suitable for mass production for the time being. However, the minister will order the firearms supervisor to continue research and ensure your Majesty''s safety as soon as possible."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. He had seen the weapon. It was indeed damaged after only a few times.


    Sun wukai nodded regretfully and said, "since the peerless weapons can''t be used for the time being, I believe that as long as I use my all-round strategy, my majesty will be safe."


    Sun wukai freely attacked the loopholes in the existing protection. All the important officials in the court are Millennium foxes. How can he not know sun wukai''s purpose? He obviously made suggestions, but in fact he attacked Xi Jun, the commander of the forbidden guard, for his weak protection and intended to get involved in the position of the commander of the forbidden guard.


    "The minister impeached Xi Jun, the commander of the forbidden guards, who bought a weak guard and put his Majesty in danger."


    "The assassination was caused by Xi Junmai''s dereliction of duty."


    "Please remove Xi Junmai from his post and investigate his responsibility."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a while, Xi Junmai became the target of public criticism, and all officials impeached Xi Junmai one after another.


    Li Shimin looked at Xi Jun and frowned, "Xi Jun bought it. What''s your excuse?"


    Xi Jun bought a train and knelt down to plead guilty and said, "it''s my duty to let your Majesty in danger because of my dereliction of duty. I''m willing to be punished. However, I don''t spit out a word. When your majesty listens to me, I''ll kill and punish him. I won''t have a word of complaint."


    "Speak!" Li Shimin said expressionless.


    "Tell your majesty, there is no all-round plan in the world, but only a safer one. The assassination can be done once and for all without a comprehensive guard. The thief army will always try its best to find out the security loopholes, and the conspiracy is not good for your majesty." as soon as Xi Jun bought this, he immediately rejected sun wukai''s all-round plan, and man Chaodun felt a strong struggle.


    Li Shimin frowned and was dissatisfied. In his opinion, sun wukai''s guard strategy was extremely comprehensive. If he had used it to deal with it before, the thief army would be found just after entering Jiucheng palace and could not attack him at all.


    Sun wukai said sarcastically, "so, general Xi believes that the assassination of 90% palace is not your responsibility, but that ASHNA''s association rate is too cunning."


    The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty could not help shaking their heads and sighing. If Xi Junmai honestly admitted his mistake, perhaps his Majesty would let him go for the sake of his previous love, but now he has been shirking it. I''m afraid it will only annoy Li Shimin.


    Xi Jun shook his head and said, "I didn''t shirk my responsibility. Even if sun Zhonglang''s plan is a panacea, can I really prevent it if I encounter the peerless weapon in the hands of Mo Hou?"


    All of a sudden, everyone pondered. I''m afraid it''s really difficult to defend according to the idea Xi Jun bought.


    "As general Yixi said, no one in the world can protect your Majesty''s safety.


    Sun Wu was happy and cold. In his opinion, Xi Jun''s purchase was just a sophistry, just to get rid of his crime.


    Xi Junmai solemnly said: "There is only one way to ensure your Majesty''s safety. That is to attack your shield with your son''s spear. My minister envisages dividing the forbidden guard into two. One side defends, the other side pretends to be an assassin, and the two sides attack and defend each other. If one side pretends to be an assassin can break through the defense, it proves that your Majesty''s defense still has loopholes. You need to strengthen the guard until your Majesty''s defense is impeccable To ensure your Majesty''s safety, this is the sin minister''s defense for your majesty. "


    After Xi Junmai finished, all officials looked at Xi Junmai in surprise, as if they knew him for the first time.


    Just now they listened to sun wukai''s defense plan and felt that it was perfect. As soon as the plan bought by Xi Jun came out, sun wukai''s defense plan suddenly became a joke. Sun wukai''s defense plan was just a hindsight to fill the loopholes in the Jiucheng palace assassination case one by one. I''m afraid it''s unknown whether it had any loopholes.


    However, Xi Junmai''s defense plan was constantly upgraded until it was perfect. Xi Junmai said that there was no all-round plan, but everyone knew that this was the all-round plan.


    Sun Wu''s face was pale when he opened. He didn''t expect Xi Junmai to come up with such a plan. Compared with the two plans, his thought of everything became a joke.


    "I only want your Majesty''s safety and offer this policy, not to get rid of my crime. I am willing to be punished for the negligence of 90% of the Palace this time." Xi Junmai bowed down in the tunnel.


    Li Shimin took a deep look at Xi Jun''s purchase. Even he felt very amazed at the scheme Xi Jun bought. At present, he couldn''t help but say in his heart: "attack the son''s shield with the son''s spear. This is what you think of."


    Xi Junmai shook his head and said with a tragic smile, "I''m stupid. How can I come up with such a plan? Otherwise, how can I put your Majesty in danger? This is the pain in my heart after the change of 90% palace. I blame myself for failing to live up to your majesty''s trust. For this reason, I specially asked for advice from Marquis mo."


    Xi Junmai didn''t hide it and took the credit as his own, but directly and frankly said Merton.


    Suddenly, all officials suddenly realized that Xi Jun''s plan was incredible. It didn''t seem to come from the head of a martial artist. Hearing that it was the idea of Mohist, all officials immediately felt that it was normal. After all, how surprised


    "I''ve been studying legalism recently, and I''ve only got a little." Merton said with an embarrassed look.


    Li Shimin glared at Merton and took a deep breath: "Xi Jun, commander of the forbidden guard, failed to buy the guard. He must be punished. His official position was reduced from six grades to Colonel Guoyi, and his salary was fined for half a year."


    "I am willing to be punished." Xi Junmai accepted without hesitation.


    All the officials sighed. Li Shimin only reduced Xi Jun''s purchase to captain Guoyi of the sixth grade. He did not say that he would transfer Xi Jun''s purchase and would not let Xi Jun buy continue to guard. Obviously, he still continued to trust Xi Jun''s purchase. What the officials did not know was that what really saved Xi Jun''s purchase was not just the strategy of attacking his shield with his son''s spear, but that he did not hesitate to take the credit for getting rid of his crime, But frankly say Merton''s credit. You should know that being a guard around your majesty, loyalty should be higher than everything.


    Sun Wu opened his low head and immediately showed a resentful look. He just asked Merton for a peerless weapon to protect his Majesty''s integrity, but Merton refused to cooperate with him, but who knows he helped Xi Jun buy it, let Xi Jun buy escape, and let his plan completely fail.


    Sun wukai''s expression of resentment quietly fell into Chang sun Chong''s eyes. Now he controls the firearm army, but he doesn''t know the military. He just needs a leader. Sun wukai has a quarrel with the Mo family. In addition, he has proved himself in the change of 90% palace. He is the talent he needs.


    As for Xue Rengui, who was originally a member of the firearm army, he was a member of the Mohist school. Naturally, he would not use him.


    At this point, the reward and punishment for the change of Jiucheng palace is finally over. Some officials are about to play some good things to make your majesty feel better. Suddenly, Fang Xuanling stepped out again and said, "tell your majesty, in addition to the loyalty of the officers and men guarding your majesty, there are also some loyal to your majesty. These people must be rewarded."


    Suddenly, the man Dynasty people frowned and didn''t understand who Fang Xuanling was talking about!

 Chapter 1188

    Li Shimin looked surprised and asked: "I don''t know who Fang Aiqing is talking about. As long as it is a loyal person, I will certainly give you a reward."


    Fang Xuanling solemnly said, "tell your majesty, what I said is that the Turkic generals, ASHNA''s association rate and heluohu betrayed your majesty and plotted to assassinate you, but the Turkic generals did not participate. Naturally, they are loyal to your majesty."


    Fang Xuanling used the method of counter evidence. Among the Turkic generals, ASHNA''s association rate and he Luohu were rebellious, and the other generals were naturally loyal. If Fang Xuanling said that the generals of the Tang Dynasty were not equally loyal and should be rewarded.


    However, although Fang Xuanling''s statement was not rigorous, Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "the Turkic generals are indeed loyal to me and naturally want to be rewarded."


    The Turkic generals were immediately flattered. They thought that they were lucky that the ASHNA association rate and the heluohu rebellion were not involved this time. No one thought they could be rewarded.


    Ashnash Morton was ashamed and said, "I''m ashamed to accept it."


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "general Simo''s words are bad. If all Turkic generals follow ASHNA''s association rate and heluohu''s rebellion, I''m afraid I can''t survive even if I have ten lives. If you can abide by your original intention and fulfill your duties, you can really be called loyal."


    Ashnasmo was deeply moved. Lang said, "please don''t worry about Tian Khan. The minister will never betray his majesty like the two traitors of ASHNA association rate and heluohu. The minister will certainly be loyal to his majesty. If he breaks his promise, he will be trampled to death by ten thousand horses."


    Stampede to death of ten thousand horses is a heavy curse in Turks, almost like the ten thousand arrows piercing the heart in the Han population. It can be seen that ashnasmo''s determination.


    Li Shimin was immediately moved. He personally stepped down from the Dragon chair, picked up ASHNA simolang and said, "general Simo''s loyalty can be learned from the world. I decided to give his country''s surname, Li, as a reward."


    As soon as Li Shimin''s voice fell, the whole Tai Chi hall was in an uproar. You know, it is extremely rare for Li Shimin to give a surname. In the Manchu Dynasty, only one person has such treatment, that is Li Ji. Li Ji''s original name was Xu Shiji. Because Li Shimin avoided Li Shimin''s word of the world and changed his name to Xu Ji, Li Shimin was greatly moved and personally gave Xu Shiji''s surname Li and renamed it Li Ji.


    "I kowtow to thank the heavenly Khan for his kindness!" Li Simo couldn''t help himself excitedly. Li Shimin gave his country''s surname Li. Doesn''t that mean that he will be the first Turkic general really recognized by Li Shimin.


    Looking at Li Simo''s moved eyes, Li Shimin was very useful in his heart, but he did not ignore other Turkic generals and rewarded them one by one.


    "Thank God Khan!" the Turkic generals thanked one after another.


    Li Shimin reaped the loyalty of a wave of Turkic generals. Then he sighed and said, "you are all loyal people. I don''t spit out a word in my heart. I not only treat you like brothers and sisters, but also treat Turkic departments like the people of the Tang Dynasty. However, I didn''t expect that there would be such traitors as ASHNA''s association rate."


    Li Simo said proudly, "please don''t worry, your majesty. Who among the Turks dares to oppose your majesty again? Before your majesty starts, the minister will behead him first."


    Other Turkic generals echoed one after another, looking loyal.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and sighed: "there are thousands of mistakes in ASHNA''s association rate, but there is no mistake, that is, all Turkic people want to return to the grassland."


    "This!"


    A group of Turkic generals were at a loss and embarrassed. They enjoyed prosperity and wealth in Chang''an city. Naturally, they didn''t want to go back, but they couldn''t stand the ordinary herdsmen under them. They wanted to go home.


    "Please don''t worry, your majesty. I will strictly restrain the Ministry in the future." Li Simo said.


    Li Shimin shook his head and sighed: "in the Tang Dynasty, there is a saying that women don''t stay, stay, stay and become enemies. The people of all Turkic departments want to return. I''m afraid that if I want to force them to stay, it will only raise resentment among them, which is difficult to do. What''s more, it is similar to ASHNA''s association rate, which has been banned repeatedly."


    Even his own daughter will remain enemies, not to mention the Turkic adopted daughter. I''m afraid there will be constant conflicts in the future.


    "Your majesty! I''ll wait...!"


    Li Simo and other Turkic generals quickly expressed their loyalty, but Li Shimin interrupted them with a wave and said decisively: "I''ve decided to let all Turkic departments return to the grassland!"


    "Ah!"


    Suddenly, the whole Taiji hall was in an uproar, and the Turks were shocked. Naturally, they knew the old feud between Turks and the Tang Dynasty, and the reason why Li Shimin forced the Turks to stay south of the Yellow River. If they were in Li Shimin''s position, they would do the same, but they didn''t expect Li Shimin to really put the Turks back to the Tang Dynasty.


    In fact, not only the Turkic generals, but also the officials of the Tang Dynasty were surprised. No one thought Li Shimin should make this decision.


    Merton also frowned. You know, he has put forward ten plans to Li Shimin, but Li Shimin still decided to release all Turkic departments back to the grassland.


    Chang sun Chong was so happy that he couldn''t help but secretly rejoice. Could it be that the emperor still favored him.


    Only a few important officials of the three provinces and six ministries were silent, and the officials of the Tang Dynasty who originally wanted to oppose could not help but be silent.


    "Your majesty!" lismorton''s face was tangled. He wanted to show his loyalty, but he thought of the tribe''s countless requests to him and hung down helplessly.


    "Thank you for your help. Although my tribe has returned to the grassland, I will stay in the Tang Dynasty to work for your majesty." Li Simo said firmly.


    However, Li Shimin shook his head and said: "General SMO can''t stay in the Tang Dynasty. Now among the Turkic ministries, Jieli Khan has died, and the heluohu who inherited the position of Tuli Khan has participated in the rebellion. Turks have no Khan, but general SMO is a member of the ASHNA nationality and the only candidate for the position of Khan. I hereby appoint you Yimi Nai. Who will be the leader of the Turks and Zhuhu who are placed in various states Cross the Yellow River and return to the old land of Monan. "


    "Khan!" when Li Simo heard the speech, he immediately felt that a big pie had fallen from the sky. He never thought that the position of Khan would fall on his head. Although he was a member of the ASHNA family, he was the great grandson of Yili Khan. He had long been reduced to a remote vein. In the ASHNA family, there were no 100 or 80 more distinguished than him, and he could not be seen in a circle.


    Many people looked at Li Simo with envy and jealousy. Li Simo actively expressed his loyalty to Li Shimin, but did not expect to fall into such a great advantage and even get the position of Khan. Many people regretted that if they expressed their loyalty to Li Shimin in advance, wouldn''t the position of Khan fall on his head.


    Seeing the faces of the people, Li Shimin couldn''t help smiling. This is exactly the result he wanted. Let the Turkic generals see the benefits of loyalty to him.


    "I kowtow to thank the heavenly Khan for his kindness."


    The position of Khan is the dream of every ASHNA family. It is simply integrated into their blood. Li Simo can''t refuse this temptation.


    "See Khan!"


    The sudden generals saluted Li Simo respectfully.

 Chapter 1189

    In the Tang Dynasty, the appointment of Turkic Khan was completed. Although this scene is very strange, no one cares about it. Everyone is attracted by the position of Khan. You know, this is not a puppet Khan left in Chang''an City, but a Turkic Khan who can return to the grassland and have real power.


    If he Luohu saw this scene, he would surely regret. The position he once dreamed of was so easily rewarded to Li Simo by Li Shimin. If he didn''t see the rebellion, I''m afraid he still had a good chance to get it.


    "Tian Khan showed mercy and allowed the Turkic departments to return to the grassland. However, when the Turkic departments moved in, the original pasture had become an ownerless land and was occupied by other departments. Now that the Turks returned to the grassland, Tian Khan also asked him to allow the Turks to return to their hometown and pasture." Li Simo was excited and immediately took over the role of Khan to strive for more interests for the Turkic tribes.


    Turk was the overlord of the grassland at that time, and all the old places were rich in water and grass pastures. With Li Shimin''s move to Turk, these rich water and grass pastures naturally attracted the covet of other grassland departments, which also caused many conflicts. Finally, they were divided by Xue yantuo, tiele and Khitan, of which Xue yantuo occupied the largest place, The strength is the most powerful, and there is a faint trend to replace the original Turkic status and become the overlord of the grassland.


    Moreover, Xue yantuo was extremely dishonest. Before Gaochang cut off the Silk Road, Xue yantuo was behind his back. Li Shimin allowed all Turkic departments to return to the grassland, which was more useful for the intention of all Turkic departments to beat Xue yantuo,


    Li Shimin nodded without hesitation: "That''s natural. Those grasslands were originally the hometown of Turks. They belonged to Turks. Now it''s all right to let them borrow for ten years. Now that Turks have returned, those pastures naturally have to be returned to their original owners. The whole southern desert beyond the Great Wall, which extends to Dahe in the South and baidaochuan in the north, are grazed by Turks. Xue yantuo''s departments keep their own territory. They can''t invade each other and destroy grassland peace."


    Turks will not help but rejoice in their hearts. Tianhan really wants to Turks. The southern desert is the best pasture on the grassland outside the Great Wall. Turks can certainly reproduce and grow here. It is not an illusion to return to the position of grassland overlord in time.


    The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty frowned. Now the whole desert outside the Great Wall has been divided up by Xue yantuo and other tribes, but Li Shimin forcibly gave the pasture to the Turks. Xue yantuo and other countries will never fall away. How can they be reconciled? I''m afraid there will be another dispute in all parts of the grassland.


    Merton suddenly realized that no wonder he had put forward the outer ten way plan. Li Shimin still put the Turkic departments back to the grassland according to the original plan, and more and more let the Turkic and Xue yantuo, the new and old grassland overlords, merge. However, when the Tang Dynasty is almost ready to fight, the Turkic departments will remember the good of the Tang Dynasty again, and Xue yantuo will be honest, and then start the outer ten way plan and restart Control the tribes, and from then on the North was settled.


    "A group of old foxes!" Merton looked at Li Shimin and a group of important officials. None of these founding ministers was a human being. Xue yantuo and Turks were afraid to be crippled by them. Of course, many Turks had been interested in Datang. Datang would not let Turks lose too much. As for Xue yantuo, he could only say that he was to blame. If he didn''t want to provoke Datang like Turks in the past, he wouldn''t be calculated by Li Shimin.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Li Simo said gratefully. Although he knew that Xue yantuo would not be willing to withdraw from the Turkic hometown, with the will of Li Shimin, once Xue yantuo wanted to use force, Datang would stand on the Turkic side. With Datang as a backer, Li Simo was very determined.


    So far, the change of Jiucheng palace came to an end in the Tang Dynasty, and its impact on all parts of the grassland has just begun.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    With the end of the great court meeting, the news that the Turkic ministries were about to return to the grassland immediately spread all over Chang''an City, and the whole Chang''an city was boiling.


    For the Han people, it is natural to think that their call to drive all Turkic parts back to the grassland has been realized. Driving away Turks is their victory. For the Turks, it is their wish to return to the grassland. Now it has been realized. Naturally, they are very excited. For a moment, both Turks and Han people are extremely satisfied with the result. It can only be said that Turks return to the grassland It is the desire of the people and the general trend.


    After dealing with the Turks, empress changsun and Princess Changle returned to Chang''an City from Jiucheng palace. There was an assassination. Li Shimin naturally didn''t mean to take another vacation. Merton was also driven to the shelves and took up the post of firearms supervisor and wine sacrifice again.


    Now, all parties have gone around and even returned to the original place. However, the status of all parties has changed from heaven and earth. Turks fell from the overlord of the grassland to relying on Datang, and Datang has settled down as a dealer. Although Merton lost the firearm supervisor, he has regained control of the firearm supervisor. His official position has been promoted from grade 5 to grade 4, which is enough to keep sun Chong at the head.


    However, after the two assassinations of Tubo and Turks, Merton began to significantly strengthen the guard around him. Even the Mojia village built a peerless weapon for him to carry all night, because Merton knew that the position of firearm sacrifice supervisor was extremely dangerous, and he might be killed by secret enemy self killing attacks and random guns, so he might not be so lucky as the first two times.


    When Merton''s huge escort team arrived at the door of the firearms prison, Taoist priest Changsheng, Deng Chong, eunuch of Bingjing department, and Xue Rengui, captain of the firearms prison, were waiting at the door.


    "Wuliang Tianzun, I knew that the firearm supervisor could not leave Mo Daoyou, but I didn''t expect Mo Daoyou to come back so soon." the firearm supervisor''s resident, Taoist Changsheng, was the first.


    "Immortal Taoist friend joked. There are changes in the firearms prison these days when Mo is away." Merton said awkwardly.


    Taoist priest Changsheng shook his head and sneered: "who dares to be presumptuous in the firearms prison? Even the new firearms Army General sun Chong came here and was blocked back by the old Taoist priest."


    Merton frowned and said, "what''s going on?"


    Bingjing Secretary Deng Chong explained: "it is said that the eldest grandson expanded the firearm army to 3000 people. Lacking weapons and gunpowder, he came to the firearm prison to ask for supplies. However, at that time, the wine offering adult in the firearm prison was in the Jiucheng palace, and there was no decision, so he asked us to block it back."


    Merton understood what was going on after a little brain mending. It must be that Chang sun Chong wanted to take advantage of the firearm prison when he saw that there was no owner of the firearm prison. However, the firearm prison was a secret place, directly under the jurisdiction of his majesty. Taoist priest Chang Sheng and his Majesty''s confidant Deng Chong naturally did not look at Chang sun Chong and stubbornly blocked him back. If it were someone else, I''m afraid I would have surrendered to the power of the Chang Sun family.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction and said, "you''re right. Gunpowder is a secret place of the Tang Dynasty. No one can break in without your Majesty''s order and wine offering."


    "Yes!" said Xue Rengui in a loud voice. He was in charge of the first firearms prison, which was his duty.


    Merton narrowed his eyes, stared at Xue Rengui and said, "aren''t you in charge of commanding the firearms army? Why are you still in the firearms prison."


    Xue Rengui said positively, "the last general heard that the sacrificial Lord will certainly take charge of the firearms prison again. He will wait for the sacrificial Lord here and continue to follow the sacrificial Lord."


    "Xue is dishonest. It''s clear that he was driven out by others, but he was so loyal and courageous." Taoist priest Changsheng mercilessly mended the Dao. Among the three, Xue Rengui is the youngest and Taoist priest Changsheng is the oldest. Naturally, you can make fun of Xue Rengui.


    "Driven out?"


    Merton couldn''t help but look at Xue Rengui. With Xue Rengui''s qualifications and the performance of the two western expeditions, he was a rare good general, but Chang sun Chong abandoned it.

 Chapter 1190

    "It''s not that Chang sun Chong is a cronyist. He thinks that Mo Jiang is a person offering wine to adults. He will be idle. Just as Mo Jiang is ready to cast new weapons in Gaochang, he returns to the firearms prison. After hearing about Mo Hou''s peerless weapons, Mo Jiang has new inspiration and can certainly be cast. Chang sun Chong invited me, but I won''t go yet!" Xue Rengui raised his head and said stubbornly.


    "So, Chang sun Chong has found a suitable deputy general." Merton thought that as the son of an aristocratic family, Chang sun Chong can''t stay in the army to command the firearms army. There must be a suitable deputy general to take charge of the firearms army for him, just as he did before.


    Xue Rengui looked embarrassed and bowed his head in silence.


    Suddenly, a group of horses and horses hurried to the firearm prison, turned over and got off the horse and said, "I heard that Mo sacrificial wine took office today, and sun wukai, deputy general of the firearm army, specially came to apply for gunpowder weapons."


    "Sun wukai!" Merton was surprised. He didn''t expect that the Deputy General Chang sun Chong was looking for was sun wukai.


    Mohist Zi and Chang sun Chong had a grudge. In addition, Chang sun Chong robbed the firearm army from Mohist Zi. Naturally, he was unwilling to humble Mohist Zi, so he sent Sun Wu, the newly appointed Deputy General of the firearm army, to beg for gunpowder weapons.


    Merton laughed and said, "Chang sun Chong is really blind. He actually reuses your Sun Wu Kai and abandons the real Sun Wu."


    "Ah!"


    "Humble and stupid, how can you compare with Sun Wu." Xue Rengui''s face turned red, but he didn''t think that the wine worship Lord really stood out for him and raised him to the level of Sun Wu.


    Merton looked away from him and said, "of course you can''t compare with Sun Wu. You can''t be regarded as a good general at most. It''s nothing to rush into the array, and you can''t lead the army alone. Of course, in the new firearms army, in addition to Mo, you are also a rare general. It''s his loss for Chang sun Chong not to use you."


    Xue Rengui felt proud when he heard Merton''s evaluation. He didn''t feel ashamed. Instead, he was very satisfied with being called a good general.


    "Hum! Marquis Mo looks down on sun too much."


    Sun wukai could not help humming coldly and looking provocatively at Xue Rengui.


    When Xue Rengui looked back, an old and a new Deputy General of the firearm army immediately looked at each other with eyes full of gunpowder.


    "OK, it''s a mule or a horse. You''ll know if you walk. You just pity my firearm soldiers." Merton sighed.


    Sun wukai said proudly, "the firearm army will naturally be in the charge of general sun, the firearm army commander. It doesn''t bother Marquis mo. Marquis Mo and the firearm supervisor just need to provide gunpowder weapons for the firearm army, and the firearm army will naturally prove itself."


    "Bring the weapons list!" Merton waved his hand, didn''t open his anger with Sun Wu, and said faintly.


    Sun Wu enlightened Bai Mo''s family and won Li Shimin''s trust. In addition, he asked for the firearm prison and naturally knew the current affairs. He handed over the list of weapons needed by the firearm army.


    Merton looked at the weapons list of the firearm army, nodded and said, "these weapons are not difficult, but the firearm army is expanded three times at once. The firearm prison does not have so much inventory. It must be ready for the firearm army within one month."


    Sun wukai looked at Merton unexpectedly. He didn''t expect that Merton was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he answered.


    "After all, the firearm army came from the hands of this sacrifice. This sacrifice will naturally read the feeling of incense and fire and want to make the firearm army stronger." Merton seemed to see through sun wukai''s heart and said faintly.


    Sun wukai couldn''t help Hao Ran. He arched his hand and said, "mohou Gaoyi."


    "However, these gunpowder weapons can be prepared for you, but they are conditional," Merton continued.


    Sun Wu whispered happily. Sure enough, he knew that this level was not so easy.


    "Please speak clearly!" Sun Wu said.


    Merton said, "needless to say, you know the importance of gunpowder. This is the biggest secret of the Empire. Therefore, the responsibilities of the firearm army and the firearm supervisor should be clearly divided. The firearm supervisor is responsible for producing gunpowder weapons and the firearm army is responsible for using gunpowder weapons. This is the reason why your majesty divides the firearm supervisor into two."


    Sun wukai nodded his head. As a soldier, he naturally knew the importance of gunpowder.


    "Not only that, but also the gunpowder weapons are powerful and cannot be prevented. Moreover, foreign spies constantly spy on the firearm prison and the firearm army, so we must not let any gunpowder leak. Therefore, every time the firearm army uses gunpowder, it must declare the quantity and type of gunpowder to the firearm Supervisor in advance, and it needs to be used under the supervision of the firearm supervisor. After the training is completed, all the fire Drugs and weapons must be sealed up and guarded by special personnel in the firearms prison. There must be no acts of hiding or stealing gunpowder and weapons in the firearms army, otherwise they will be disposed of according to the military law. "Merton said solemnly.


    Sun Wu was embarrassed. Nominally, the firearm army had been separated from the firearm prison. However, Chang sun Chong could not intervene in the firearm prison. Instead, he was interfered in the firearm military goods by the Mohist son for the reason that gunpowder was a state secret.


    Morton naturally saw that sun wukai was reluctant and said coldly, "gunpowder is a secret. Once gunpowder weapons are revealed, not to mention general sun, even his Chief Sun Chong can''t bear this responsibility."


    Sun wukai said in a hoarse voice, "what if it wasn''t from the firearm army, but from the firearm prison?"


    Merton laughed and said, "how difficult is this? When the firearm supervisor casts no gunpowder weapon, the number is printed inside, so you can clearly find out when and where the weapon came from which craftsman, and where it has gone. At that time, you will know as soon as you check it."


    "Mohou thought it over carefully, but this matter is not a humble decision. When he returns, he will report to general sun and make a decision." Sun Wu bowed his head. The only one who can compete with the Mohist school is Chang sun Chong. One of them is the best of the aristocratic family and the other is the best of the hundred. The power of energy behind them is almost the same. In addition, they are deeply trusted by the emperor at the same time.


    Merton nodded and said indifferently, "that''s natural. If you don''t want to play to your majesty, please decide."


    "In that case, I will leave!" sun wukai bowed.


    Changsun mansion.


    Chang sun Chong could not help but be satisfied and sweep away his previous decadence.


    The momentum of the firearm army under his command was even stronger than that under Merton''s command. He was the first child of the aristocratic family and relied on the love of the eldest grandson''s family and Li Shimin. Both the Ministry of war and the Ministry of Civil Affairs gave the green light to the firearm army, and both the number of people and funds gave full support to it.


    The whole changsun mansion can feel the change of changsun Chong, which makes changsun Wuji nod secretly. Changsun Chong''s change is worth it. He takes the risk of offending the Mexican family and the emperor to discuss the position of firearm supervisor and firearm sacrifice wine for changsun Chong.


    "General Chang sun!" sun wukai hurried to the front of Chang sun Chong. Seeing that sun wukai had just gone and came back empty handed, he frowned and said, "why, the Mohist family wanted to embarrass the firearm army and deliberately withheld gunpowder weapons."


    Chang sun Chong knew that he had robbed the firearm army. It was not surprising that mojiazi was uncomfortable and would be embarrassed. However, he was not afraid. He had his Majesty''s edict. Once mojiazi deliberately embarrassed the firearm army, he would not hesitate to play a Book of mojiazi in the Tai Chi hall.


    Sun wukai shook his head and said, "the Mohists didn''t seize gunpowder weapons, but said they could be forged in a month and let the firearm Army take them."


    Chang sun Chong''s face was surprised. He didn''t expect that the trip would be so smooth. He couldn''t help showing a proud smile and said, "he knows."


    "However, Mo Jiazi made a request that the use of gunpowder weapons by the firearm army must be under the supervision of the firearm supervisor, otherwise..."


    Before sun wukai had finished, Chang sun Chong immediately flew into a rage and said, "the firearm supervisor should supervise the firearm army. His Mohist son''s hand is too long!"


    "The Mohists used the smell of gunpowder as an excuse for state secrets!" sun wukai said helplessly.


    The eldest sun Chong said angrily, "as long as he knows that gunpowder is a state secret, the general will not know. How can the general do that leak? Why doesn''t he let the firearm army supervise him? No, the general must play a Book of Mohist. Mohist is taking revenge for public and private."


    "Fool, what do you use to play the Mohist school? He''s the fourth grade in official position, you''re the fifth grade, and he''s the marquis in rank. What about you? You''ll be the Duke of the country when I die. I''m afraid the Mohist School''s rank will no longer be under me by then. Besides, the gunpowder comes from the Mohist school. If Mohist school wants to leak secrets, he will be assassinated by Tubo Turks many times. What''s more, you think there is no firearms prison I''ve been supervised. Why is Bingjing division Deng Chong in the firearm prison? Most of the first firearm troops are hundred riders, but you drive away Xue Rengui, the former hundred riders'' captain. What do you play with the ink family. "Suddenly, there was a severe reprimand outside the house, and Chang sun Wuji came in with a wooden face.


    "Lord Chang sun!" sun wukai saluted quickly.


    "Father! Is it possible that the Mohists will oppress the child?" the eldest sun Chong refused.


    Looking at the childish Chang sun Chong, Chang sun Wuji was a little disappointed when he thought about the manoeuvres of the Mohist School in the court hall, but he patiently said: "Although you and mojiazi are trusted by your majesty, mojiazi is the absolute authority together with gunpowder. Otherwise, why do you think your majesty can''t wait to restore mojiazi to his original post? In any case, you can''t compare with mojiazi. Even if you play now, what do you think your majesty will think? All the reasons for mojiazi''s supervision of the firearm army are just for the sake of greatness Don, what''s your intention that you don''t want to be supervised? "


    "Boy......" the eldest son opened his mouth and tried to argue, but he couldn''t speak.


    The sun''s Mowgli shook his head. "Even if your majesty is in harmony, it is not the Mohist supervision of the firearms. It will also be a hundred to supervise the firearms. You can''t get away from it and will leave a bad impression on your Majesty''s heart. You must know that what you control is the most confidential firearms in Datang. Once you leave a bad impression in your Majesty''s heart, do you think you can still control the firearms?"


    Chang sun Chong was speechless.


    "In addition, although mojiazi supervised the firearms of the firearms army, he did not seize your gunpowder weapons or interfere with your military power. If you want to get rid of the influence of mojiazi, take good care of the firearms army. When you prove yourself with great achievements, the greatest contribution of mojiazi in the firearms prison is just making wedding clothes for you." Changsun Wuji advised.


    "I understand!" the eldest son took a deep breath and said solemnly.

 Chapter 1191

    "Five years!"


    "Do you know how I spent these five years?"


    Li Yun looked at the magnificent Weishui bridge in front of him and couldn''t help feeling heroic. In five years, he finally completed the construction of this miraculous bridge.


    Although he had a hard time in the past five years, and even almost couldn''t afford to be paralyzed, he never regretted it. Moreover, seeing the bridge built little by little, he lived a full life every day, and every day was full of fighting strength.


    "I tell you, young master, the Weishui bridge has been inspected and can be officially opened to traffic." a son of Xiangfu''s family can''t hide his joy. It took Li Yun more than five years to build the Weishui bridge, and even the whole son of Xiangfu''s family spent five years of youth. Now it''s finally the moment of glory of Xiangfu''s family.


    Hearing the good news, Li Yun couldn''t help showing his joy even if he built the bridge himself. He looked at the majestic Weishui bridge and looked back at the straight lane from the bridge head to Chang''an city. Since then, it was completely opened from the northern artery of Chang''an City, and there was no obstacle all the way north from Chang''an city.


    More importantly, with the Weishui bridge, Xiangfu''s one pulse has finally made great achievements, which is enough to be on an equal footing with Mojia village. The three veins of Mojia village will no longer be the dominant family in Mojia village.


    "Report to your majesty!" Li yunlang said. The Weishui bridge has attracted worldwide attention. Now it has been completed, so it is natural to report to your majesty at the first time.


    "Yes!" said the younger generation of Xiangfu.


    Soon, he galloped into Chang''an City on a fast horse, and soon the whole Chang''an city was a sensation.


    "The construction of Weishui bridge is completed, and the opening ceremony will be held soon." everyone in Chang''an city rushed to tell them, excited.


    For the Weishui bridge, almost everyone in Chang''an city is paying attention to the super bridge, and even many people specially look at the towering piers and the thick steel cables that are clearly visible even from a long distance.


    Since Xiangfu''s pulse informed his majesty, naturally he didn''t forget to inform Tian Mou.


    "It''s done!"


    When Tian Mou heard the news of the completion of the Weishui bridge, he couldn''t help crying. He has been committed to reviving Mohism, but he has no way. However, what his older generation didn''t accomplish was realized in the hands of the younger generation, and he is really famous all over the world.


    Today''s Weishui bridge is just the beginning. There are many rivers wider than Weishui in the world. Bridges will be needed at that time. From then on, the Xiangfu vein will really rise.


    "Come on, immediately publish a special issue of Ink magazine to report on the Weishui bridge and publish this special issue all over the world." Tian Mou wiped his tears and shouted that this time, he would make Xiangfu famous all over the world.


    "Yes, editor in chief!" Mo San replied.


    The whole ink magazine immediately worked overtime to print special issues. Once printed, it immediately sent them to thousands of families in Chang''an city without stopping.


    Not only the ink journal is like this, but even the Confucian journal that does not deal with the Mohists does not hesitate to publish a special issue. The completion of the Weishui bridge is not a dispute between the Confucianism and the Mohists, but a good thing for the country and the people. The Confucian journal has always advertised that the world is for the public, and naturally will not smash its signboard.


    Even the post station followed suit and specially printed stamps printed on the Weishui bridge as a souvenir.


    Weishui bridge is destined to remain famous in history books and become a landmark building of Chang''an city. It can be imagined that once it is issued, countless people must have heard of the wind and collected it. You know, the first batch of hundreds of stamps have appreciated dozens of times, and the stamps of Weishui bridge will rise sharply. Naturally, stamp collectors all over the world will not miss this opportunity.


    With the release of two journals and one post, the news of the opening of Weishui bridge spread all over the Tang Dynasty at the fastest speed.


    This moment! Weishui bridge and Mohist Xiangfu have become the most dazzling stars of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone is looking forward to the opening day of Weishui bridge.


    Three days later, the opening ceremony of the Weishui bridge was officially held. Thousands of people in Chang''an City poured into the Weishui bridge in the north of Chang''an city.


    Outside the Weishui bridge, a huge opening ceremony has been prepared. Although Li Yun didn''t want to fight, he had to make a big arrangement when he heard that his Majesty was about to be lucky to the Weishui bridge.


    "Congratulations, brother Li!" Morton, the new Imperial College''s toast, stepped out of the carriage and congratulated Li Yun.


    Li Yun quickly replied, "thank you for your help, brother mo."


    The biggest credit for the successful construction of Weishui bridge is the concept of suspension bridge first put forward by Merton and the new materials of steel and cement in Mojia village. Otherwise, he is the ability of heaven and earth, and it is difficult for a skillful woman to cook without rice.


    Merton laughed and said, "the three veins of red flower, white lotus root and green lotus leaf are originally one. The three veins of Mohism are both competition and cooperation. All three veins are fighting for the revival of Mohism."


    Red flowers, white lotus roots and green lotus leaves. The three religions were originally a family. This is the original sentence in the romance of gods. It was created in the Ming Dynasty. Merton naturally applied it to the three veins of Mohism. It is also more appropriate.


    Li Yun couldn''t help sighing. I''m afraid that among the three veins, Mojia village is a white lotus root. It keeps providing nutrients for safflower and green lotus leaf, so that Xiangfu''s vein can produce the most beautiful lotus, and dengling''s vein can spread the green lotus leaf all over the south of the Yangtze river.


    It''s a shame to say that in the past, both Deng Ling''s pulse and Xiangfu''s pulse were hostile to Mohists. I''m afraid Merton has always insisted on the idea of red flowers, white lotus roots and green lotus leaves. The three veins used to be one family. Only by embracing and supporting the other two veins can today''s three veins of Mohism be revived.


    "Mohou is indeed a man of great wisdom. He even compares the three veins of Mohism with lotus. Although the three veins are separated, after all, Mohism is still separated. It is like a broken lotus root, which is inextricably linked." Li Chunfeng called and came over.


    "I''ve seen Taoist priest Li." Merton and Li Yun came forward.


    "I''m afraid that the Weishui bridge can''t be achieved by immortal means, but the Xiangfu family did it by manpower. I really admire it. I''m afraid this bridge is unprecedented and will never come again." Li Daochang sighed.


    "Li Daochang is wrong. This bridge is just the beginning. In the future, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River will build a wider and longer bridge, but I''m afraid this bridge is destined to remain famous in history."


    A loud voice came. It was the arrival of historian Yan shigu. The Weishui bridge was the end of the old bridge and the beginning of the new bridge. How could he miss such a big thing.


    "Brother Li, brother Mo!" Zu Mingjun, who has been studying mathematics, also came slowly. Since Li Yun stood up in the Mo technology exhibition, and the construction of the Weishui bridge has come to an end, Zu Mingjun returned to the master''s college and attributed all the glory and credit to Li Yun.


    "Zu Xiong!" Li Yun said excitedly. Although Zu Mingjun had left, their friendship was always engraved with the Weishui bridge.


    Although there were no important people from the other hundred companies, they still paid a lot of attention to the Weishui bridge,


    "Mohism, Xiangfu''s pulse!"


    With a sigh, a Mohist village has already overwhelmed all the schools. Now Mohism has risen again. Everyone knows that there are so many places in the world that need to build bridges. The rise of the Xiangfu family is unstoppable, which makes the revival of Mohism even more powerful.


    Not to mention the momentum of Deng Ling''s exclusive development of the south of the Yangtze River, its power scale is also rising. The three carriages of Mohism go hand in hand, and the trend of revival is doomed.

 Chapter 1192

    "Your Majesty has arrived!"


    Suddenly, a notice woke up the people. The construction of the Weishui bridge not only shocked hundreds of people, but also attracted much attention from the government and the public. Even Li Shimin changed his depression about being assassinated before. After hearing the good news, Long Yan was very happy and came to see the bridge opening ceremony in person.


    "Yes, your majesty!"


    Li Yun, Merton and others immediately greeted them and went to the luggage lane.


    "Excuse me, Li Aiqing really lived up to my trust and finally built the Weishui bridge in five years." Li Shimin looked at the magnificent bridge in front of him and couldn''t help showing a shocking expression.


    "After Li Chun, he really deserves his reputation. From the perspective of Wei Chen, Li Yun is better than the blue." Zhang Liang echoed behind Li Shimin.


    He is the Minister of the Ministry of work, and the Weishui bridge is the merit of the Ministry of work. In addition, Li Shimin will also attend. Naturally, he will not be absent.


    "Lord Zhang praised me too much." Li Yun said modestly.


    "I can afford it. The Zhaozhou Bridge built by Li Chun is only more than ten feet long, and the Weishui bridge built by Li Aiqing is probably a mile long!" Li Shimin smacked his tongue.


    "Your Majesty, thanks to the new bridge building materials and the concept of suspension bridge, the water surface span of Weishui bridge is as much as 200 feet." Li Yun said proudly.


    "Two hundred feet!" suddenly everyone was in an uproar.


    One mile is about 500 meters long for later generations, and two hundred feet is already 600 meters. Only the more leaders are longer than Zhaozhou Bridge. At this moment, Li Yun is the most shining star in the audience, even Mozi is compared by him.


    Li Yun then said, "in addition to the length, the Weishui bridge also adopts a two-way six lane and sidewalk. One way can lead to three carriages side by side for pedestrians."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. Most of the ordinary bridges are one-way roads or two carriages side by side. However, the Weishui bridge is the main artery in the north of Chang''an city. I don''t know how many vehicles are passing. The narrow bridge simply can''t meet the traffic demand. At present, it''s a waste, but in the long run, There are no worries about the passage of the whole North.


    "More importantly, the bridge can bear 30000 kg of single vehicle. The theoretical limit is 100000 kg of single vehicle. The service life of the bridge body is theoretically 100 years. If it is regularly repaired and reinforced, it can be used for more than 200 years." Li yundao.


    "Thirty thousand kilograms, a hundred years!" the Minister of the Ministry of industry couldn''t help but smack his tongue. No one thought that he could achieve such a high load-bearing and persist for so many years just by hanging with a steel cable.


    You should know that the largest carriage produced in Mojia village is only 5000 kg. As for the life span of 100 years, although the Zhaozhou Bridge of later generations has been inherited for thousands of years, I''m afraid it can''t last for 100 years if you often use carriages weighing thousands of kg.


    "Moreover, the bridge is ten meters higher than the highest water level of the Weishui River, which does not affect the boating of the Weishui river at all, and Weichen is also building a wharf not far away to connect the Weishui bridge with water and land transportation." Li Yun pointed to a newly built Wharf Road not far away. Water transportation and land transportation must be more important for the Weishui bridge.


    Water transportation is the most common means of transportation in the Tang Dynasty, and Weishui is responsible for the transportation of Chang''an city. However, Weishui is an inland river after all, and ships are generally small. The bridge is ten meters higher than the water level, which does not affect the water level at all.


    "Ten meters above the water level, how can such a heavy carriage get on?" Li Shimin was surprised.


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. In order to make it convenient for the carriage to get up and down, Weichen specially led out nearly five miles of flat road from the bridge deck, which is enough for the carriage to pass through the bridge smoothly, and there are ramps beside it to facilitate the carriage to get up and down." Li Yun introduced.


    Li Shimin turned around and saw only the bridge deck. A flat cement road has been paved for as much as two miles along the bridge deck, followed by a red brick road for three miles. A gentle slope of more than ten meters is buffered by a road of five miles, which is almost the same as the flat ground and does not affect the gentle slope at all.


    "Pave the road with cement!" the Minister of the Ministry of work looked at the cement road for two miles, and couldn''t help taking a breath.


    Cement is expensive, needless to say, and rare. However, Li Yun actually uses it to build roads, but there are also advantages to building roads with cement, that is, it can shape at will. The whole road surface is also supported by piers, and the road can be opened to traffic under the road for horses and cars coming down from the ramp.


    "The Qiao design of this bridge is the best in the world." Li Shimin nodded and praised.


    "What your majesty said is very true, but from the perspective of Wei minister, I''m afraid that the Weishui bridge will not be the first bridge in the world for long. There are still wider and longer bridges waiting to be built by Lord Li." Zhang Liang said with a happy face and looked at Li Yun with more soft eyes. Of course, it''s not that he must use Li Yun, But I''m afraid no one in the world can build such a magnificent bridge except Li Yun.


    "Lord Zhang, you don''t know that daily necessities are expensive! The Weishui bridge was built after five years of taxes in Mojia village. It''s a huge sum of nearly 200000 yuan. If the Ministry of work builds several more such bridges, it won''t empty the national treasury!" Tang Jian, the new minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, said with a bitter smile.


    Dai Zhou, the former Minister of the Ministry of the people, was too old and resigned. Tang Jian, the former Minister of the Ministry of the people, took over the post of minister of the Ministry of the people.


    Merton on one side could not help feeling that the old ministers of the new generation were slowly getting old. Unconsciously, they had retired, and the central government departments had slowly changed new people.


    "200000 Guan!" Zhang Liang couldn''t help but smack his tongue. The money was deducted from the taxes of Mojia village. He didn''t think it was very expensive. However, he really asked the Ministry of industry to pay hundreds of thousands of Guan to repair the bridge. Suddenly, he was reluctant.


    "Lord Tang''s remark is biased. The bridge is beneficial to the country and the people. It''s worth spending more money. Moreover, building the bridge is not always losing money. You can also use the bridge to maintain the bridge. Suppose that you charge ten Wen for each carriage and pass 3000 carriages every day, that''s 30 yuan, that''s 10000 yuan in that year, and you can get back the capital in 20 years, but this bridge can be used for hundreds of years In a short time, with a full five times return, does Lord Tang still think that it costs money to repair the bridge? "Merton came forward and said in a loud voice.


    Tang Jian''s eyes flashed when he heard the speech. The Weishui bridge is the north channel of Chang''an City, which is as prosperous as the Longhai line. It is a conservative estimate to pass through 5000 carriages every day. Moreover, the charge of ten Wen for carriages loaded with goods is very reasonable. What makes Tang Jian excited is that the return rate of repairing the bridge is five times, that is, the charge of one bridge is enough to build five more bridges, The benefits generated by these five bridges can continue to build other bridges. In this way, chaotang only needs to invest in the early stage and build bridges in the later stage, which can make all rivers in the world build bridges and make the world unobstructed, not to mention the hidden benefits of promoting the economy of Datang.

 Chapter 1193

    "No, your majesty. Since ancient times, building bridges and paving roads has benefited all the people. I''ve never heard of the saying that bridge fees should be charged. In this way, the imperial court is no different from the robbers who occupy the mountains and rob the roads, which will damage the reputation of your majesty and the imperial court." suddenly Yu Zhining jumped out and resolutely objected.


    Tang Jian frowned and looked at Yu Zhining in surprise. He didn''t hear the cost of the Weishui bridge. It was a full 200000 yuan. Yu Zhining let him out so lightly. It was really standing and talking without backache.


    "Lord Yu, that''s 200000 Guan, enough to cover the taxes of several counties," Tang Jian reminded.


    Yu Zhining snorted coldly, "so what? The prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty is in sight. The annual taxes of the ten ways are so much that 200000 Guan can fully afford it. Spending 200000 Guan can make your majesty win the hearts of the people all over the world. It is already worth thousands of yuan."


    For a moment, everyone choked. Everyone knew that Yu Zhining was trying to butter up the emperor, but he stood on the great righteousness. In addition, Li Shimin attached great importance to the reputation of Mingjun. In addition, Li Shimin just experienced the assassination, I''m afraid he cared more about the hearts of the people,


    "Since you can get the people''s support by spending money, why don''t you suggest your majesty exempt the world''s taxes? It won''t win the people''s support more." Merton asked.


    Yu Zhining''s face turned red immediately. If the world''s taxes were exempted, would the imperial court still be able to do it? I''m afraid he couldn''t even pay his salary.


    "It''s too arrogant for Mo to offer wine. In my opinion, Mo Hou strongly advocated the bridge fee. I''m afraid he went astray and got into the eyes of money." Yu Zhining angrily scolded.


    Merton hummed coldly: "Lord Yu doesn''t feel bad about selling yetian. The bridge built by the imperial court spent 200000 yuan was sent out by you. It doesn''t matter where the money for bridge construction comes from. Even if the imperial court allocates funds, I''m afraid the construction speed will be greatly reduced. As a result, the world is blocked by rivers, the traffic is not smooth, and the people all over the world will suffer in the end."


    "So, it''s for the sake of the people all over the world to collect the passing money for Mo sacrificial wine." Yu Ning said sarcastically.


    Merton nodded without hesitation: "however!"


    "It''s ridiculous!" Yu Jining pointed to Merton''s nose and trembled. Even other ministers could not help frowning and thought that Merton was unreasonable again.


    "The 200000 yuan spent on the Weishui bridge is really not much. It''s just the five-year tax of Mojia village. The imperial court can afford it. However, adult Yu doesn''t know how many Weishui bridges need to be built in the Tang Dynasty." Merton asked.


    "Ah!" Yu Zhining looked at Merton with a blank face.


    Merton stretched out his hand and handed Yu Zhining a book and said, "this is the local chronicles newly written by his Highness the king of Wei. You can study it. The span of the Weishui bridge is only 600 feet. There are at least three or five hundred bridges in rivers with a similar width in the Tang Dynasty."


    "Three or five hundred!" suddenly everyone was in an uproar. The cost of a Weishui bridge would be 200000 Guan. If we had another three or five hundred, it would be as high as 10000 Guan. This was not a small number. For a moment, the wind direction of everyone suddenly swayed.


    "Wan Wan Guan is not going to be taken out for a while, and the imperial court can still afford it." Yu Zhining clenched his teeth and said.


    Merton sighed: "These three or five hundred Weihe River bridges are easy to build, but what about rivers wider than the Weihe River in the world? Every time they are twice as wide, the cost and difficulty of construction will rise several times. According to Wei Chen, I''m afraid at least ten Yellow River bridges will be built on the Yellow River, and eight on the Yangtze River will be built before the world can pass unimpeded. I''m afraid the cost will be astronomical. Won''t the imperial court charge the bridge fee at that time? ¡£¡±


    The ministers took a breath. They didn''t have to calculate how expensive it was to build a bridge over the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, but they also understood that once a bridge could be built on the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, even if the cost was large, the imperial court would not hesitate to build it.


    Suddenly, Yu Zhining''s local records became extremely hot, but he still didn''t give in.


    Merton sighed: "Even if the imperial court can afford the money, no one in the world is willing to do business at a loss. There are countless places where Datang needs money. At that time, it is inevitable that the money is not in place. The bridge that should have been built in a short time will last for a long time. The traffic is not smooth in the world, and Datang can only be damaged. Therefore, collecting the bridge fee is the only choice, even if your majesty decides that the bridge is not safe Yes, one day, Datang will also collect the bridge fee to recover the loss, but it has been delayed for too long by then, and the damage can only be Datang and Datang people. "


    "I''ve heard for a long time that Marquis Mo is the God of wealth of the Tang Dynasty. Today, I see that he deserves his reputation. It seems that I want to ask Marquis Mo for more advice in the future." Tang Jian bowed to Merton. At first, he thought Merton was nonsense, but when he heard Merton mention the number of bridges that the imperial court needed to build, he immediately supported Merton with a clear flag. If these bridges had to be paid by the Ministry of the people, it would be easier to kill him.


    Merton replied, "Lord Tang, you are welcome. This move is also to reduce the burden of the imperial court and make people all over the world no longer suffer from the obstruction of the river."


    "The minister supports Mo''s offering wine and collecting the bridge fee is not for his own personal gain, but for the world to build more bridges as soon as possible. I believe the people will understand." Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of works, also stepped forward to support Mo dun. If there is no money, the speed of building the bridge will be greatly reduced, which also affects the interests of the Ministry of works.


    Li Yun couldn''t help but be moved. The civil servants in the direction advocated that the Weishui bridge should be free of charge, but Merton strongly advocated that the Weishui bridge should be charged. At the beginning, it was the 200000 yuan of money for the construction of the Weishui bridge not far from the imperial court. Merton had to propose to use the taxes of Mojia village to build the Weishui bridge, which enabled the smooth construction of the Weishui bridge.


    Now the Minister of works and the Minister of civil affairs are here. In order to build more bridges, the Ministry of works agrees to support the charging, while the Ministry of civil affairs will certainly support the charging in order to maintain bridges by bridges. Merton''s move can be said to persuade two of the three provinces and six ministries at one fell swoop.


    In this way, the cost of repairing the bridge has been solved, and the resistance to building the bridge in the future is much smaller.


    "Red flowers, white lotus roots, green lotus leaves, three veins used to be a family." Li Yun suddenly felt a little more. Merton did not hesitate to support the collection of bridge fees. Of course, it means to support the bridge by the bridge. It also indirectly allows the Xiangfu family to have more bridges to repair, which is of great benefit to the Xiangfu family.


    "But we are the imperial court, how can we compete for profits with the people and make money by using the Weishui bridge!" Yu Zhining muttered to himself, still unable to accept the bridge fee. Not only that, even Li Shimin may have a tangle on his face. On the one hand, it is his reputation, on the other hand, it is his real interests, which makes him very embarrassed.


    Merton naturally understood Li Shimin''s psychology and said in his heart: "Your Majesty, the purpose of the world''s taxes is to take it from the people for the people. Similarly, it can be understood in reverse. It is to use it for the people and take it from the people. Even if the 200000 yuan bridge repair fee is paid in advance by the imperial court, it will be collected from the bridge crossing fee over the past 20 years. Once you have collected enough capital, your majesty can order to stop collecting the bridge crossing fee of Weishui bridge. In this way, it will ensure that the imperial court will not It will not make the people think that the imperial court is competing for profits with the people. At that time, your majesty is ordering to exempt the bridge fee, which will also reap the hearts of the people all over the world. "


    The ministers'' eyes suddenly brightened. In this way, the imperial court can recover the cost and use it to build a new bridge without losing the support of the people. Isn''t it the best of both worlds.


    "The people all over the world are in trouble, and ten Wen is not worth mentioning to the rich Mojia village. I''m afraid there are still many people who can''t afford the ten Wen bridge fee." Yu Zhining, with a look of people''s hardship, still refuses to give up.


    Merton said: "In that case, the bridge crossing fee of Weishui bridge is only for carriages. Anyone who crosses the bridge manually or on foot is free. Weichen feels that if a person can afford a horse, he may not have any burden to pay the bridge crossing fee of ten Wen. Not to mention that Weishui bridge can avoid many wronged roads. The time and cost saved alone are far more than the bridge crossing fee of ten Wen."


    Li Shimin''s eyes brightened. People with horses can''t be called poor. It''s easy to bear the bridge fee. Poor people can also enjoy the convenience of Weishui bridge for free. This is really a way to have the best of both worlds.


    "Of course, there are still some who need to be exempted from the bridge fee, such as the imperial court''s post station, military vehicles and horses, yamen service, fire dragon Department, and even hospital ambulances." Merton added that this move attracted many departments. For a while, many officials turned against each other and supported the collection of the bridge fee.


    "If someone deliberately uses manpower instead of horsepower to drill the loophole of the bridge fee?" Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, frowned. If the bridge fee is not collected for a long time, your majesty will be exempted from the bridge fee in 20 years because of his face, and the hole in the household still can''t be filled.


    Merton Zhizhu said in his grip: "Don''t worry, Mr. Tang. The Weishui bridge has a five mile slow rise road, plus the five miles on the other side, it''s as much as ten miles. If you use manpower to drill loopholes, you don''t need money to hire labor, not to mention the time wasted walking ten miles and the trouble of using horses on the other side. I''m afraid it''s more cost-effective to spend ten Wen to cross the bridge. Mo said that Weishui bridge The construction of the bridge is beneficial to the world, not the bandits who block the way to collect money. Even if there is a way to pass the bridge without free, I think more people are willing to spend this ten Wen bridge fee. "


    "Mo Hou is brilliant, and Wei minister agrees with Mo''s sacrifice!" Tang Jian sincerely admires. This is his first contact with Merton, and he is immediately impressed by Merton''s means.


    "The minister agrees too!" Zhang Liang echoed.


    "Ministers also agree!" echoed all the ministers.


    This time, even Yu Zhining has no reason to object. After all, those who have money can cross the bridge without money, which can not only ensure the breakeven of the imperial court, but also enable your majesty to collect the hearts of the people. This is the best scheme.


    "In that case, we should collect the bridge fee as Merton said, engrave it in stone, and tell the world that the bridge fee will only be charged for 20 years, and the bridge fee of Weishui bridge will be exempted after 20 years." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Your Majesty is wise! If your majesty wants to win the hearts of the people, I think the toll from Chang''an city to Luoyang can be exempted. I think it should be paid back now." Merton reminded him that he was not surprised by this result. After all, the money of the imperial court was not from the strong wind. What he worried about was not that the imperial court charged the bridge fee, but that the imperial court was unwilling to give up this rich interest once it tasted the sweetness of the bridge fee and charged 200000 yuan guaranteed. You know, with the arrival of the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty, the Weishui bridge will only be more busy, and the bridge fee will be more expensive Just a lot more.


    Tang Jian felt hurt for a while. You should know that Chang''an city to Luoyang is the most prosperous road in the world. The annual toll is not a small amount. Tang Jian was really reluctant to give up suddenly, but he finally acquiesced to this fact.


    "Your Majesty, the auspicious hour has come, but it''s cut." Li Yun came forward to remind him when he saw that the dust had settled on the bridge fee.


    "Good! Such a great thing that benefits the country and the people can''t be delayed." Li Shimin is happy with the fame and wealth of the Weishui bridge.


    With the scissors closed, the red silk fell, and the Weishui bridge, which had been prepared for five years, was officially opened to traffic.

 Chapter 1194

    "Open to traffic!"


    Weishui bridge was officially opened to traffic, with the order.


    Originally, there was only a simple temporary bridge over the Weishui River in the north of Chang''an City, which can only accommodate the passage of light carriages, and it is a one-way road, which has long been insufficient to meet the passage of people and cargo transportation in Chang''an City, and the Weishui bridge perfectly solves this problem.


    Chang''an business travel is both looking forward to and worried about the opening of the Weishui bridge. It is expected that once the Weishui bridge is completed, the traffic pattern to the north of Chang''an will be greatly convenient. It is worried that rumors about bridge tolls have been constant.


    For the collection of bridge tolls, many businesses are also mentally prepared. After all, the imperial court spent 200000 yuan to complete its construction. It is understandable to collect bridge tolls. However, if the bridge tolls of Weishui bridge are too high, I am afraid they will immediately change from good governance to excessive collection. Especially for some poor people, even a small bridge tolls is a heavy burden for them.


    When the standard of the bridge crossing fee came, everyone was relieved. The manpower was free. It was charged according to the carriage. Although the price of ten Wen was expensive, it had been extremely humanized, not to mention the charging period of only 20 years. Once the court recovered the cost, the Weishui bridge would be free immediately and would not become a tool for the court to collect money. For a while, Everyone shouted for joy.


    The charges are reasonable. With the completion of the brick road supporting the Weishui bridge, taking the Weishui bridge to the north will not only save time and labor, but also eliminate the travel and labor costs, and even save more money. Suddenly, the business travel to the north of Chang''an city is moved by the wind, and taking the Weishui bridge has become the best choice.


    However, the first batch of people who passed the Weishui bridge were not business travelers in Chang''an City, but a group of Hu faces, that is, the Turks in Chang''an city.


    Since Li Shimin agreed to the decision of Turkic ministries to return to the grassland, the Turks in Chang''an city are ecstatic. Although Chang''an city is good, more people still miss the grassland. Suddenly, many Turks are ready to return to the grassland immediately. In addition, the Weishui bridge is opened today, which is just the bridge to return.


    Of course, those adults who really want to return, especially the middle-aged Turks, miss the glory of dominating the grassland in the past, while the younger Turks miss the prosperity of Chang''an city more and choose to stay.


    Merton looked at the returning Turkic ministries and couldn''t help but realize that this is the real reason why Li Shimin visited the Weishui bridge in person.


    It is also a great coincidence that ASHNA''s association rate once wanted to use this bridge to return to all Turkic departments, but it was a pity that it was stopped. Now the Turks in Chang''an city passed through the Weishui bridge.


    "Your Majesty tiankhan, I will come to tiankhan''s tent to serve immediately after I have settled all the Turkic departments here." Li Simo, the new Turkic Khan, knelt respectfully in front of Li Shimin.


    Li Simo is a smart man. He knows that the strength of Turks is not enough to gain a foothold in the grassland. Turks want to recapture their hometown, so they can only rely on Datang.


    "After the Turkic ministries return, they must be careful to guard against Xue yantuo. I have sent a special envoy to ask Xue yantuo to give up the Turkic homeland. Xue yantuo will not be willing to come. Once there is a change in Xue yantuo''s ministries, he can immediately ask Datang for help." Li Shimin looked at the Turkic ministries. There are few young people, so he can''t help but have a little more confidence in Merton''s plan of the outer ten ways, Of course, the younger generation staying in Chang''an city also has the meaning that Turks will be protons to Datang. After all, if Turks want to gain a foothold in the grassland in the future, they still need the support of Datang. The family members staying in Chang''an city are the best proof of their loyalty to Datang.


    "Thank God Khan for his mercy!" Li simoden''s confidence increased greatly when he was with the support of Datang. He immediately increased his confidence in recapturing the Turkic homeland. He knew how powerful Datang was. Although Xue yantuo was powerful now, he was still much inferior to the Turks ten years ago. At the beginning, such a powerful Turk was defeated in Datang''s hands, and Xue yantuo''s defeat was determined.


    "Go!" Li Shimin waved.


    "Farewell!" Li Simo got up and waved his hand. The returning Turks set off again, one by one, looking forward to the north.


    With the departure of Turkic ministries, the change of Jiucheng palace really came to an end. However, its influence did not end, but transferred the war from Chang''an city to the grassland. The former grassland overlord will return, and the situation on the grassland will rise again.


    Li Shimin solved the problem of grassland. Then he focused his attention on the Weishui bridge again and looked at Li Yun and said, "Li Aiqing has excellent bridge building skills and is now recovering. It is really a blessing of the Tang Dynasty. I hereby appoint you as wailang, a member of the Ministry of work, in charge of bridge building in the world from the fifth grade."


    "Thank you, your majesty!" Li Yun gladly obeyed the order. The construction of the bridge is the greatest pride of Xiangfu''s family. If Li Yun can take charge of the construction of the bridge in Datang, it will be twice the result with half the effort.


    Zhang Liang couldn''t help sighing in his heart. The construction of such a super bridge must involve a lot of interests. Although he was excited, as soon as the emperor opened his golden mouth, he handed it to Xiangfu''s pulse, and he could only accept it.


    "I inform your majesty that the Weishui bridge has been completed. From the perspective of Wei minister, it is time to start the plan of the Yellow River Bridge." Zhang Liang bowed forward and said.


    "Yellow River Bridge!"


    Li Shimin''s breath suddenly stagnated. Although the geographical location of Weishui bridge is important, it is driven by Chang''an City after all. In terms of traffic arteries, compared with the Yellow River Bridge, Weishui bridge is simply a ratio of fireflies and bright moon.


    A simple temporary bridge can be built over the Weihe River, but there is no temporary bridge over the Yellow River. Only boat ferry. Fengling ferry is the largest Yellow River Trading wharf. You know, the cost of boat ferry is much higher than that of a little bridge.


    Li Yun frowned: "The theory of building the Yellow River Bridge has been completed. However, the Weihe River Bridge is only two hundred feet after all, but the Yellow River needs to be at least a thousand feet away. In addition, the Yellow River is quite deep in silt, and there are many difficulties to overcome. I''m afraid that the hurried construction of the Yellow River bridge can only get half the result with half the effort. Weichen wants to postpone the construction of the Yellow River Bridge, but it is easy first and then difficult, and the construction of the north and South Huaihe River Bridge is also hindered ¡£¡±


    "Huaihe bridge!" Zhang Liang frowned. Although the Huaihe bridge is equally extraordinary, it is very different from the meaning of the Yellow River Bridge.


    "Yes! The situation of the Huaihe River is similar to that of the Yellow River. Both of them are silted up, but their difficulties are much smaller than that of the Yellow River. Once the Huaihe River Bridge is built and the bridge construction experience in sediment laden rivers is accumulated, it will be no problem to build the Yellow River Bridge in the future," Li Yun said confidently.


    "Yes!" Li Shimin said. He also knew that haste makes waste. In addition, the investment of the Yellow River bridge must be more huge. We must be foolproof. Before again, we can try the Huaihe River Bridge.


    "However, in addition to the Huaihe River Bridge, the construction of other places similar to the Weihe River in the world should also be accelerated," Li Shimin added.


    Li Yun nodded: "Don''t worry, your majesty. Weichen has personally trained bridge builders to build the Weishui bridge. At present, there are three Mohists who can build a bridge similar to the Weishui bridge, and more than ten Mohists can build a bridge more than 100 feet. With the application of steel and cement, a bridge under 100 feet will be built by traditional bridge builders, plus the Yangtze and yellow rivers By crossing the river by boat, Wei Chen promised that within 50 years, bridges will be built in all rivers except the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, and vehicles and horses will be unimpeded. Within 100 years, bridges will be built on the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and there will be no natural graben in the Tang Dynasty. "


    Li Shimin was filled with emotion. When he only imagined this picture, he couldn''t help being heroic. Since then, all roads in the world have been paved with brick roads, bridges on rivers and smooth traffic.


    "I look forward to that day!"


    Li Shimin was full of splendor. The depressed mood originally caused by the Turkic rebellion was suddenly swept away.

 Chapter 1195

    All the way north.


    The Turks who returned from Chang''an City became more and more excited as they went North until they saw the Turkic tribes south of the Yellow River. They immediately cheered and joined the people who came to meet them.


    In Chang''an City, although there is no lack of glory and wealth, all Turks know that they are not masters, and they are the real masters when they return to the grassland.


    "See Khan!" in the tooth tent in the center of the Turkic move, Turkic generals officially loyal to Li Simo.


    "Please get up!" Li Simo said in high spirits. Although he was appointed Turkic Khan by Li Shimin in Chang''an City, it was a hollow promise after all. Now his loyalty to Turkic ministries has made him really have real power.


    "Thank you Khan!" a group of tribal leaders got up and looked at Li Simo one by one.


    Li Simo took a deep breath: "it has been ten years since Turks moved south. Today, thanks to the mercy of Khan, we are allowed to return to the grassland and give Turks their hometown of Monan."


    A group of Turkic leaders cheered one after another. Although the tribes living in the inland areas were richer, they could only live with their tails in their own way, and missed the years of dominating the grassland even more.


    "However, the Turkic hometown of Monan is occupied by Xue yantuo. The Turkic warrior takes up the weapon in your hand. If Xue yantuo doesn''t return the hometown of Monan, he will take it back with the machete in your hand." Li Simo shouted.


    "Take it back!" shouted a group of Turkic tribal leaders. Ten years ago, when Turks were strong, Xue yantuo was just a small tribe attached to Turks. He was not prepared to put Turks in the eyes. In the eyes of a group of Turkic tribes, as long as they go back, Xue yantuo will obediently let Monan''s hometown out.


    Li Simo frowned at the tribes still immersed in the glory of the Turks in the past, but he did not attack the confidence of the Turks, but paid more attention to it in the bottom of his heart.


    "Now Ben Khan announced that he would return to the grassland immediately!" Li Simo shouted with his arms.


    With Li Simo''s order, the Turkic ministries that had already been prepared could not wait to start action. Even though everyone knew that it was autumn and was not suitable for tribal migration, the Turkic ministries did not care at all. The joy of return had completely overshadowed the worry of long-distance migration.


    Soon, 30000 Turkic herdsmen, 300000 livestock such as cattle and horses and 40000 cavalry troops have been prepared. However, this is only the first batch of Turkic ministries to return, and the other Turkic ministries will return to the grassland in an orderly manner.


    "Return!" cheered the Turkic herdsmen.


    Each Turkic Department crossed the Yellow River through the long built floating bridge. Each tribal old man looked at the waist deep withered grass and burst into tears. Ten years later, he finally returned to his hometown.


    As herdsmen crossed the Yellow River one by one, some leaders with complex thoughts frequently took back their eyes in the direction of Chang''an City and found that there was no sudden attack of the Tang army, which was a heavy sigh of relief. There was no half crossing attack, which said that Khan really wanted to return tomorrow.


    "Don''t worry, Tian Khan is broad-minded and won''t destroy his promise. There is only one enemy on the grassland, Xue yantuo." Li Simo showed a trace of concern in his eyes.


    Ordinary herdsmen are immersed in the excitement of returning to their homeland, and he, a Turkic Khan, needs to consider the survival of the tribe. Xue yantuo, a former Turkic subordinate tribe, has become the biggest trouble for Turks.


    "There are a lot of grass in the north of the Yellow River, which is enough for all Turkic departments to survive the cold winter. They will settle in place and return to the Turkic hometown after spring." Li Simo ordered.


    The grassland in the north of the Yellow River is the most fertile grassland in the grassland. In addition, there has been no grazing for ten years, which is enough for all parts of the grassland to spend the winter, and the climate is more mild than Mobei. Of course, there is another most important reason why Li Simo didn''t say, that is, it is closest to Datang, and the Turks have suddenly returned and haven''t established a firm foothold. Once there is a change, you can ask Datang for help as soon as possible.


    "Yes!"


    All Turkic tribes responded one after another. As long as they can return to the grassland, it is enough for them. It doesn''t matter where to camp.


    As tribes camped on the grassland to the north of the Yellow River, the Turks officially returned to the grassland. However, the return of the former grassland overlord Turks swept the whole grassland like a storm.


    "Turks are back!"


    Hearing about all the tribes on the grassland, everyone was shocked. However, in ten years, the power and ferocity of Turks also impressed the memory of all the tribes. When the small tribes heard the news, they immediately withdrew from the occupied Turkic hometown with rich water and grass and returned to their original narrow and barren territory.


    These small tribes are waiting one by one. The biggest impact of the return of Turks is Xue yantuo, the current grassland overlord. The largest number of Turks occupy the grassland in their hometown. All tribes are waiting for Xue yantuo''s response.


    In the north of Duwei mountain in the cold Mobei grassland, even if the vegetation in the north of the Yellow River is only withered and yellow, it is already a piece of ice and snow. In the snow, a huge tooth tent stands proudly, which is the tooth tent of Xue yantuo Yinan Khan.


    "Turkic return!"


    Xue yantuo nobles looked at the envoys of the Tang Dynasty with shocked faces.


    Tang envoy nodded and said, "yes, Tian Khan has ordered all Turkic ministries to return and give Turkic homeland to all Turkic ministries. Before that, the Turkic homeland forcibly occupied by Xue yantuo must be returned."


    "What, return, what about me Xue yantuo? Is there another Mobei returning to the ice and snow." a strong Xue yantuo man suddenly rose up. He was the second prince of Xue yantuo, Dadushe.


    Tang envoy said proudly, "Monan doesn''t belong to Xue yantuo. It''s not because the master is not at home and has been forcibly occupied by you for ten years. It''s yours."


    "This is the rule of the grassland. The strong is respected!" Dadu angrily hummed.


    "It is the rule of the Tang Dynasty to return the things to their original owners. In the past, all parts of the grassland were in chaos and fought against each other. However, when Khan made the rules, all parts of the grassland lived in peace and could not fight against each other." Tang envoy warned.


    Dadu Shea immediately scowled and said, "it''s impossible! The grassland is the grassland of all departments, not the grassland of the Tang Dynasty. It''s impossible to follow the rules of the Tang Dynasty."


    Tang envoy looked at magnanimous with contempt and said, "even if we respect the strong according to the rules of the grassland, we are also strong, and we still follow the rules of the Tang Dynasty."


    Magnanimous set immediately blushed, as if he had been pinched by his neck, unable to speak.


    The old Yi man Khan quickly dissuaded him and said, "Tang envoy calms down his anger. The rebellious son is vulgar and doesn''t understand etiquette. The Yi man has been admiring the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty for a long time. He is willing to keep his land and guard the peace of the grassland according to the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty."


    A trace of sarcasm appeared on Tang envoy''s face and said, "you know!"


    In the tooth tent, a group of Xue yantuo nobles immediately dared to be angry and speechless, and the Yi man said good words again and again, and offered a heavy gift to the envoy of Tang Dynasty.


    After Tang emissary left, Dadushi burst out and said, "father Khan, why do you give way to Tang step by step? Once the Turks have a firm foothold on the grassland, will there be a place for me Xue yantuo?"


    Everyone knows that there can be only one overlord on the grassland and only one Xue yantuo and Turks, otherwise there can be no peace at all.


    Yi man Khan stood slowly. Even if he was old, he still showed a generation of majestic momentum. The original momentum of Dadushi suddenly flashed a trace of awe. This is the Yi man Khan of Weizhen grassland for ten years.


    "Xue yantuo is not afraid of Turks and the Tang Dynasty. Although the Tang Dynasty is powerful, Xue yantuo can still protect himself if he goes on an expedition to Mobei. However, Xue yantuo is absolutely unable to defeat Turks and the Tang Dynasty. Once the Tang Dynasty and Turks are united, I will be defeated." Yi man Khan restored the wisdom of a generation of male leaders.


    "Are we willing to give up the grassland overlord? Go back to the bitter and cold land of Mobei again." Dadu said reluctantly. Now Xue yantuo is in full swing, so he is not willing to bind his hands.


    Xue yantuo shook his head and said, "no, there will be a war between Turks and Xue yantuo. However, this war will bypass the Tang Dynasty. Once Xue yantuo destroys all Turks, the Tang Dynasty will have to admit this fact no longer willing."


    "Bypass Datang! How is this possible?" Dadushi shook his head and said. Now Datang is determined to support Turks. How can he sit and watch Xue yantuo destroy Turks.


    Yi man Khan showed a trace of confidence and said: "Don''t worry, my father has got a definite news. Li Shimin will go to Mount Tai to become a Zen priest next year. There are no leaders in Chang''an city. This is a good opportunity. Now you can secretly contact the other grassland departments. Once Li Shimin leaves Chang''an City and goes to Mount Tai to become a Zen priest, he will immediately join forces to attack the Turkic departments. When Tian Khan returns, the Turks are extinct, and Tian Khan can only recognize me Xue yantuo ¡£¡±


    At this moment, Yi man Khan fully displayed the heroism of a generation of grassland overlord.


    "Yes!"


    Magnanimous and convinced.

 Chapter 1196

    Winter is coming!


    A heavy wind and snow covered the sky and the earth, suppressed the white hot contradictions on the grassland, and blocked the ambitions of countless people under the power of heaven and earth,


    In another cold place, a storm also rose quietly, but this storm is not a knife and gun battle between tribes, but an invisible religious battle.


    Luoxie city! In the Tubo palace.


    The Dharma protector of the Tang Dynasty, master Salmonella farIn, sat on the throne and was explaining the Dharma to Songzanganbu. A group of Tibetan nobles who believed in local Buddhism glared at him, but had to admire master farIn''s Buddhism. The Mahayana Dharma was handy and did not say anything. They also created a new Tantric Dharma, which made them intoxicated.


    "Master farIn really has profound Buddhism, which I admire!" after master farIn finished speaking, Songzan Ganbu came down with imperial concubine Wen and said in a loud voice.


    "I''ve seen the king and Princess Wen!" master farIn said in an unassuming manner.


    "Tell the king, thanks to the help of Buddhism, I can see his majesty tiankhan and ask him to agree to the marriage between the king and Princess Wen." Lu Dongzan reported.


    Princess Wen immediately brightened her eyes and said to master Falin, "thank you for your help!"


    Master farIn replied, "Princess Wen is polite. I''d rather tear down ten temples than one marriage. As long as the king and Princess Wen have a lover and get married, I wouldn''t hesitate to give up my skin bag."


    "Princess Wen will never forget the kindness of the master." Princess Wen said solemnly.


    Princess Wen seldom saw Han people in Tubo. She was a little more happy to see Master Falin and other monks. In addition, although she was loved by Songzan Ganbu, she had no power in the imperial palace. The arrival of master Falin and other Tang monks was a heaven given opportunity and needed the support of the upper class. Maybe it was a woman''s natural instinct to be good at Palace fighting. They immediately hit it off, A tacit agreement was reached.


    Songzan Ganbu is happy to see his success. You should know that both imperial concubine Wen and Tang monks are the link between Tubo and Tang, and also the power against Princess Chizun. In this way, his harem can maintain balance.


    "Fortunately, with the help of master farIn, Tian Khan promised you and me that we could get married. Once we got married, the king would promote concubine Wen to empress Wen." Songzan Ganbu said happily.


    Lu Dongzan couldn''t help but look bitter and said, "tell your majesty that although Tian Khan promised to marry, the Mohist son heard a condition, that is, let the king build a palace for Princess Wen with the gift of a princess, and even the drawings have been prepared."


    "Mojiazi!" Princess Wen''s heart moved. As a Han, who didn''t know the famous mojiazi, let alone when she saw the palace on the drawing, she couldn''t open her eyes any more.


    As a woman, who doesn''t fantasize that she is a princess? Now Princess Changle claims that all women in the Tang Dynasty are princesses, and mojiazi specially designed a palace for her, which immediately realized Princess Wen''s dream.


    "Potala Palace, what does this mean?" Princess Wen''s eyes flashed and saw the four Chinese characters on the drawing.


    Master farIn explained, "Potala means Putuo in Sanskrit. It is the place where Guanyin Bodhisattva lives. It seems to me that Princess Wen is destined to Guanyin Bodhisattva."


    "Potala palace! King!" concubine Wen couldn''t help but move in her heart and looked forward to Songzanganbu,


    "Jian, I will not hesitate to spend any more for Princess Wen!" Songzan Ganbu said gently as he looked at Princess Wen, but his clenched hands were green, revealing his heart.


    "Thank you, king!" Princess Wen took the palace drawing and couldn''t help but be happy.


    In addition to Princess Wen''s pure immersion in the dream of the Princess Palace, who is not a smart person, naturally knows the purpose of Mohism, but anyone knows that Songzan Ganbu has no choice. In that case, it''s better to accept it neatly.


    Once accepted wholeheartedly, Songzan Gambo saw more palace drawings. Although the purpose of Mohism was impure, its artistic level was well known all over the world. The palace painted by him was the prototype of the Potala Palace of later generations, which was extremely brilliant and magnificent. In contrast, the palace he now lives in is just like a heaven and a earth.


    "Only the king can deserve such palaces. The Mohist thought that he wanted to use the Potala Palace to consume Tubo, but he didn''t know that he would just send a big gift to the king." for a moment, Songzan Ganbu was proud. Now Songzan Ganbu is unified in the plateau and has great ambition. Seeing the grandeur of the bulada palace, he was proud unconsciously.


    "Your Majesty, the Potala Palace is magnificent, but it needs high technology. I don''t have such talents in Tubo. In addition, its cost is too high, and Tubo''s Treasury is empty now..." Lu Dongzan frowned. According to him, although the Potala Palace needs to be built, it can be built slowly and slowly, so that Tubo will not damage national strength.


    Master farIn said in a loud voice, "don''t worry, king. Among the Tang monks who came to Tibet this time, several monks were skilled craftsmen before shaving, enough to bear the heavy responsibility of building the Potala Palace. As for the cost, the poor monk brought ten thousand liang of silver when he traveled west, which can be dedicated to the king to build the Potala Palace."


    "Several craftsmen! Ten thousand liang of silver!" Songzan Ganbu was stunned. He didn''t expect that the Buddhist family in the Tang Dynasty should pay people and money.


    "My lifelong wish is to promote Buddhism, and money is outside my body." master farIn said quietly.


    Songzan Ganbu nodded and said, "don''t worry, master. Buddhism is not allowed in the Tang Dynasty. Tubo will always open the door for Buddhism."


    "Thank you, king!" master farIn arched away.


    Songzan Ganbu waved and held back everyone, including imperial concubine Wen, who reluctantly left. Then he came to ludongzan and said, "Daxiang, what do you think of the Westward Journey of Tang Buddhism."


    Lu Dongzan shook his head and said, "there are hundreds of schools of thought competing in the Tang Dynasty. Buddhism is really not allowed in the Tang Dynasty. What I have seen so far is that Buddhism is only dedicated to promoting Buddhism without any selfishness."


    Songzan Ganbu nodded. Originally, because the Potala Palace that mojiazi shot was the connection of Buddhist Sanskrit, his doubts disappeared. If Buddhism only preached Buddhism, he didn''t mind accepting Buddhism. Songzan Ganbu is a great leader of a generation, but after all, Tubo civilization has just started, and he has not seen the harm of Buddhism.


    "By the way, the money for the construction of the Potala Palace is not a big concern. The wine making method offered by Da Xiang has made good wine. Please have a taste and reconcile your worries. How about selling a good price in Datang." Songzan Ganbu waved his big hand and a servant brought in a small jar of wine.


    As soon as the Songzan dry cloth was opened, the whole hall suddenly overflowed with wine.


    "Good wine!" Songzan Ganbu took a deep breath, drank it up in one gulp.


    However, Lu Dongzan frowned, gritted his teeth and drank it all at once. He suddenly turned white and turned upside down in his stomach. He couldn''t help but vomit blood and wine.


    "Da Xiang!" Songzan Ganbu quickly covered the wine jar and exclaimed.


    After a long time, Lu Dongzan changed his way: "back to the king, I learned the calculations of the Mohist School in Chang''an city. I can''t smell wine or eat minced meat. I can only satisfy my hunger with porridge every day."


    In order to solve the third problem of Mozi, Lu Dongzan has damaged his stomach and his body has fallen greatly.


    "Why didn''t Da Xiang say it earlier, otherwise the king wouldn''t let Da Xiang taste wine." Songzan Ganbu scolded himself.


    Lu Dongzan shook his head and said, "the wine making method is offered by the minister. Naturally, the minister should check it. This wine is indeed a rare top-grade wine. Once it is sold to Chang''an City, it will certainly earn endless money for Tubo. In this way, the money for the construction of Jokhang temple will be available."


    "Well, in this way, I have the help of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty and good wine as the source of wealth, which will certainly defeat the calculation of Mohist Zi." Songzan Ganbu laughed loudly.


    However, he didn''t know that he thought he was on the second floor, and mojiazi had reached the fifth floor. Whether it was Buddhism or highland barley brewing, he had laid the groundwork. When it broke out one day, Tubo would be unprepared.


    In some cities,


    Jokhang Temple is the temporary residence of Tang Buddhists. With the support of Songzan Ganbu, together with the natural ally of concubine Shang and nearly 100 believers of the Tibetan mission, Tang Buddhists have initially established a foothold in Tubo.


    However, just like this, it is not enough to turn Tubo into a Western Buddhist country. Therefore, the Buddhist families of the Tang Dynasty held a scripture debate conference in Jokhang Temple.


    By preaching Esoteric Buddhism and debating scriptures with local Buddhists in Tubo, master Falin is worthy of being a Buddhist protector, Salmonella, and a fellow practitioner of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. He has profound Buddhism and knowledge. No one can win for a while. The popularity of Buddhists in the Tang Dynasty is the same, and the number of believers is gradually increasing.


    This frightened the local temples in Tubo and was extremely vigilant against the Buddhists of the Tang Dynasty. However, at the last day''s Sutra debate, master Falin announced something that shocked everyone.


    "My time has come, and I will be dead in ten days!"


    As soon as master farIn said this, all the believers in the audience were shocked. They looked at master farIn strangely. A person could predict his own death. Master farIn was really good at Buddhism.


    The Tibetan monks are even more delighted. Among the Tang Buddhists, master Falin is the most powerful. Once master Falin dies, the Tang Buddhists will certainly suffer heavy losses. Maybe the local temples can reverse the decline at one fell swoop.


    "However, the Tibetan Plateau is the place of Buddha''s care. The poor monk will not really die. After one month, the poor monk will be reincarnated. Just go all the way north and follow the poor monk''s road to Tibet, you will encounter a newborn baby boy. When he was just born, he was born with Buddhist light in the room, Sanskrit sound constantly, relic son in his mouth, three pronged head and mole under his armpit The reincarnated spirit boy is brought to Jokhang Temple to support him. When he grows up, he will gradually remember the life of the poor monk and become a new generation of Dharma protector. "Master farIn calmly explained later.


    "Wow!"


    This time, both believers and monks were in an uproar. Before that, Tubo believed that people would go to the Western Paradise after death. Although this statement is ethereal, where there is a soul child reincarnation is shocking. As long as the Buddhism is profound, they can live the second, no, or even reincarnate all the time.


    "Master farIn, are you still the spirit boy we found?" a believer asked.


    Master farIn nodded and shook his head and said, "it''s me and not me. The spirit boy will inherit my Dharma, remember my past and have his own life."


    When master farIn finished, he left the Sutra debate and returned to Jokhang Temple.


    Outside the Jokhang Temple, the story about the reincarnation of the spirit boy immediately caused an uproar. No matter from the ordinary people to the dignitaries and nobles, they are all very interested in the Buddhist family of the Tang Dynasty. Even after hearing the news, Songzan Ganbu and Princess Wen hurried to the Jokhang Temple to talk to master Falin in person. The result is the same. Master Falin will die in ten days, Will reincarnate in a month.


    For a while, the hearts of Tubo people fluctuated. The more dignitaries and nobles wanted to live for a long time. However, longevity was not available, but reincarnation could live as the second, which made many dignitaries and nobles excited.


    Everyone was staring at the Jokhang Temple, but the gate of the Jokhang Temple was closed and refused to receive anyone.


    Ten days later, in the Jokhang Temple, the Buddha bell suddenly sounded, and there was a lot of sadness in the Jokhang Temple. Master farIn died as predicted ten days later.


    "What a divine monk!"


    Suddenly, everyone rushed to the city, and master farIn died like the sun, which made the theory of the reincarnation of the spirit boy a little more credible.


    The Tang Buddhist family of Jokhang Temple held a grand funeral for master farIn. After cremation, they got hundreds of relic sons, which can be said to be the most relic son of eminent monks in the past dynasties. Everyone in luoye City shouted to the divine monk.


    One month later, the Jokhang Temple people went north as promised, followed master farIn''s road into Tubo, and actually found a baby who was born with a Buddha''s light, a relic in his mouth, a three pronged head and a mole under his armpit. They immediately named him master farIn''s spirit child and welcomed him back to the Jokhang Temple for support. The Tang Buddhism was completely spread in Tubo.


    This moment is remembered in the history books of Tubo, which is called II farIn in history.

 Chapter 1197

    "Young master, there is news from Tubo that master farIn has passed away! Reincarnate and become a spirit boy." Mo San reported in the Mo mansion.


    Mo San is in charge of Mo magazine on weekdays. He is the most well-informed. Once there is news about all schools of thought, he will come to report it immediately.


    "Master farIn passed away!"


    Merton couldn''t help sighing when he heard the news.


    Master Falin, known as the Dharma protector, is well deserved. He has devoted himself to Buddhism all his life. He has repeatedly resisted and killed Buddha. This time, during his trip to Tibet, master Falin did not hesitate to pave the way for Buddhism with his own flesh and blood.


    According to Merton''s prediction, the Buddhist family will slowly figure out the reincarnation of Lingtong. However, he did not expect that master farIn would be so radical and sacrifice himself to forcibly promote the influence of Buddhism in Tubo.


    "Master farIn is admirable for sacrificing his life for a doctrine!" Merton sighed in his heart. Buddhism is a foreign doctrine that can be carried forward in the Tang Dynasty. It is promoted by people who have dedicated themselves to Buddhism like master farIn. Buddhism really has a bad side, but there are also a large number of people who can be sung and respected.


    "Young master, in addition to the rumors of the reincarnation and rebirth of master Falin in Chang''an City, there are also rumors in Chang''an city that master Xuanzang, who traveled westward to seek Buddha, was the reincarnation of Jinchanzi, the second disciple of the Buddha, and the momentum of the Buddhist family has soared." Mo San reported.


    "The reincarnation of the Golden Cicada! The Buddhists want to blossom in Tubo and Datang!" Merton said with the same eyebrows. He didn''t expect that the Buddhists had begun to build momentum for Xuanzang before he came back. It can be imagined that once Xuanzang returned, the Buddhists would surely be at the height of the sun with his influence on the West.


    "Young master, if you want to expose this matter in Mo magazine, Confucianism magazine will not sit idly by and watch this behavior of Buddhism, but will follow up." Mo San asked. The theory of reincarnation of Buddhism can''t stand scrutiny. As long as Mo magazine and Confucianism magazine follow up, it will certainly humiliate Buddhism.


    Merton shook his head and said, "forget it! Today''s Datang is not the Datang of the past. The theory of reincarnation of Buddhism may be feasible in Tubo, but it doesn''t work at all in Datang."


    Today''s Tang Dynasty is a hundred schools of thought, a hundred schools of thought are rising, and all kinds of knowledge are exploding. The theory of reincarnation of Buddhism can not stand scrutiny and is not a worry at all.


    "In addition to Buddhism, Confucianism has also made great moves. Kong''s sacrifice of wine" justice in the five classics "has been published and distributed all over the world. Please take a look." Mo San presented a thick book with both hands.


    "Justice of the five classics" Merton was surprised. Kong Yingda''s justice of the five classics was corrected several times and finally began to be published.


    When Merton opened the title page, he saw that the printed font was movable type printing, the font was clear and neat, and punctuation was used on a large scale to determine all the controversial contents of the five classics justice in the past dynasties.


    It is said that there are a thousand Confucius in the hearts of a thousand people. In addition, the four books and five classics have a lot of disputes over sentence breaks, so there are many schools. If others determine the contents of the disputes of the five classics, they will certainly provoke people''s dissatisfaction. Kong Yingda is not only the direct descendant of Kong Sheng, but also a contemporary great Confucian. He is the most righteous.


    "Master, this is to unify the Confucian factions with the five classics of justice. Unfortunately, master''s idea is very beautiful and the reality is very skinny. I''m afraid it''s not so easy for the Confucian factions to obey!" Merton shook his head and smiled.


    Up to now, various schools of Confucianism have emerged one after another. It may be possible if Confucius is alive, but Kong Yingda is only the 31st grandson of Kong Sheng, which is far from qualified.


    Moreover, a single flower is not spring. A hundred schools of thought contend in spring. A hundred schools of thought contend not only among a hundred schools of thought, but also among a hundred schools of thought. Perhaps a hundred schools of thought contend in order to maintain vigorous vitality. Take the Mohist School for example, even if Merton had several opportunities to unify the Mohist school, he did not hesitate to give up, which made the three veins of Mohist school go hand in hand and greatly increased the trend of Mohist revival.


    However, Kong Yingda''s eagerness for quick success and instant benefit has something to do with Merton. The development momentum of Mohism is at its peak, and the other 100 schools are also making progress. Only Confucianism, which has reached the peak, can make a contribution. Kong Yingda''s use of the five classics justice to unify Confucianism has been stimulated by Mohism and hundreds of schools.


    "Young master, Confucian classics are emerging one after another. Kong Yingda has just published the five classics of justice to become famous for Confucianism, but my Mohist school still has only the classic book of the Mohist school, which is somewhat weak. Small and the Mohist masters mean that the young master should also publish a book to boost the prestige of my Mohist school." Mo Sanyi looks forward to Merton, and no one can doubt the young master''s knowledge, However, the knowledge flowing out of the young master''s hands is endless, but it is always scattered and not a family''s word. If the young master arranges the knowledge in his heart into a book, he believes that it must be a classic work no inferior to the Mojing. Today, there is only one Mojing thousands of years ago and half of Mozi in Merton''s mouth, which is not as good as Confucianism.


    "It was Chinese cabbage that you published a book at that time! If you want to publish a book, you can publish a book?" Merton glared. He didn''t know how many years and words it would take to write a book. Journey to the West lasted eight years, the dream of Red Mansions took ten years, the romance of the Three Kingdoms took 14 years, and the compendium of Materia Medica took 27 years. Merton shivered when he thought about it. If he publishes a book, I''m afraid it will be in the future. Now he doesn''t have the patience and takes many years to write a book.


    Mo San couldn''t help but curl his lips. When the young master was writing novels, he didn''t see that he was tired. Although Merton couldn''t expect to publish a book now, he didn''t give up. Among the pre-Qin scholars, Confucius didn''t publish a book when he was alive, but only published a book after being sorted out by later disciples. If he started collecting the young master''s comments from now on, After finishing later, it is not a masterpiece.


    If Merton knows that Mo San has given up on him now, after his death, he will prepare for the things behind him, and one Buddha will be angry and two Buddhas will ascend to heaven.


    "There''s another thing to let the young master know. Hou Shangshu''s western expedition army has triumphed and will arrive in Chang''an City in a few days." Mo San reminded him.


    "Hou Junji is back?" Merton was stunned.


    The soldiers of the Western Tang Dynasty destroyed a country with only a few casualties, which made the military family''s reputation soar. Before that, the situation in the western regions was unstable and needed a large army. Now the land in the western regions has been snowed and cannot use troops. The situation in Gaochang has been stable. Hou Junji returned triumphantly with the success of destroying the country.


    He believed that the western expedition was the peak of strategists and his achievements. With the power of destroying the country in this war, he could certainly become the military God of the Tang Dynasty at one fell swoop, no inferior to the predecessors of strategists in previous dynasties. However, Hou Junji did not know that a huge storm was sweeping the whole western expedition, making him fall directly from the peak to the lowest valley.

 Chapter 1198

    "What!" Li Shimin suddenly stood up and looked at Ma Jiayun, the imperial censor, with a shocked face.


    Ma Jiayun said solemnly, "tell your majesty that this is true. There is indeed a matter of longitudinal looting in the western expedition, and I dare not hide it."


    Li Shimin stared at Ma Jiayun and said, "do you know what you''re talking about? Although the imperial censor has the right to hear about the performance, it''s not a word that can explain the past by slandering an army that won and returned to the dynasty out of thin air."


    The great army of the western expedition has just returned with the power to destroy the country. It is a happy day for the whole country. At this moment, the court impeachs the officers and soldiers of the western expedition for plundering. If they sit down, it will be a crime of beheading according to the military law. The officers and soldiers who have just won the power to destroy the country will be sent to prison and beheaded before they can get a reward. It not only makes the meritorious officers and soldiers cold hearted, but also makes the court think about Li Shimin.


    Ma Jiayun said firmly on his face: "if the evidence is not conclusive, how dare the minister say anything? The reason is that the soldiers who took the lead in returning the stolen goods to the North Korea were unevenly divided, which exposed this scandal."


    "If the western expedition really looted Gaochang, why didn''t the Duke of Jincheng report to me when he came to Chang''an." Li Shimin frowned and asked.


    "Your Majesty, the evidence of the plundering of the soldiers of the western expedition is conclusive. Recently, a lot of Gaochang property has been revealed in the market of Chang''an, and its final source is directly directed to the soldiers of the western expedition who returned to Korea first. The reason why the Duke of Jincheng County kept silent is that he is afraid of revenge." Yu Zhining then said. In his opinion, the Duke Qu Zhisheng of Jincheng county is more than afraid of revenge, If he had directly sued the imperial court at that time, I''m afraid no one would believe that he would have been deliberately falsely accused of the western expedition army.


    Li Shimin was embarrassed and said angrily, "how unreasonable! How did Hou Junji, the general manager of the March, even appear the robbery of the army? In this way, how do countries treat me, Tang Dynasty and Khan?"


    Li Shimin felt that he must have had a bad time. First, there was the change of Jiucheng palace, and now there was the looting of the western expedition army, which made his so-called Tian Khan''s name stigmatized. It has become a joke.


    Yu Zhining shook his head and said, "general Hou doesn''t care, but doesn''t dare to manage."


    "Dare not manage? He is the chief manager of the western expedition. The chief manager holds the military power. How can he dare not manage?" Li Shimin shouted angrily.


    Ma Jiayun said with a heavy face: "as the saying goes, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked. The reason why the soldiers and soldiers of the western expedition looted was that Hou Junji took the lead in looting Gaochang city. His generals followed suit and looted Gaochang cities. Hou Junji''s private morality was at a loss and dared not stop it, resulting in a big mistake.


    "It''s bad for private morality!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    He did not expect that his most trusted general would do such a thing. In addition to the elite weapons, Datang relied on strict discipline. Datang''s iron cavalry could be invincible. Hou Junji not only took the lead in looting, but also damaged his generals, making Datang''s military discipline a laughing stock.


    "I think it''s the fundamental thing that destroys our Tang Dynasty to plunder the generals. We must find out. Please order your majesty to investigate Hou Junji and other generals of the western expedition in order to shake up the military law." Yu Zhining asked for orders loudly.


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "the generals of the western expedition! Even the firearm army participated in the looting?"


    The firearm army became the first soldier of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin paid special attention to it and asked.


    Yu Zhining showed a trace of disappointment in his eyes and said: "I inform your majesty that after the firearm army broke the city that day, Mo Jijiu and firearm army did not enter the city on the grounds of gunpowder safety. Later, due to the small number of firearm troops, they did not capture the city, and there was no longitudinal looting."


    "No looting?" Li Shimin''s face slowed a little. Merton and the firearm army finally saved his face and became the last fig leaf of the western expedition.


    However, Ma Jiayun immediately said: "however, Mo sacrificial wine secretly stole Gaochang''s brewing and textile skills. I think it was affected by the looting of the western expedition army. It can''t get rid of the relationship. Please deal with it together with your majesty."


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "there has been a conclusion in the imperial court about Merton''s private acquisition of Gaochang secret skill. Merton exchanged raisin secret skill for wine secret skill. The textile secret skill of the Tang Dynasty is not inferior to Gaochang, but just for reference. Moreover, Merton did not use it for himself, but handed it to Majia village. There is no need to mention this."


    "Fool, mojiazi and firearm army are your Majesty''s last face. How can your majesty agree to deal with mojiazi? It doesn''t ignore your majesty and Datang''s face." Yu Zhining sighed in his heart.


    "Your Majesty is wise, Mo sacrificial wine is noble, and Mojia village is rich in the world. Naturally, you don''t like Gaochang''s money." Yu Zhining quickly remedied.


    Ma Jiayun was careless and quickly echoed: "it was the minister''s negligence. However, Hou Junji and the other generals of the western expedition corrupted military discipline and damaged his Majesty''s reputation as Tian Khan. Please investigate this matter thoroughly."


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and coldly ordered: "send the order, and the three departments of the Ministry of war, the Ministry of punishment and the censor station will thoroughly investigate the western expedition."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" Yu Zhining and Ma Jiayun arched their hands, and their drooping heads flashed a happy look. After the opening of the Tang Dynasty, after repeated wars, the military momentum was unstoppable. Confucianism could take this opportunity to subdue the military family at one fell swoop. Unfortunately, the plot to attack the Mohist school did not come true.


    With the thorough investigation of the third division, pieces of hard evidence were placed in front of Li Shimin. The looting of Gaochang by the western expedition army was a certainty. Moreover, the scale, the number of participants and the amount of stolen goods were shocking, which aroused Li Shimin''s anger.


    "Somebody, put Hou Junji in prison immediately. The third division will hold a joint trial!" Li Shimin said with a look of awe.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At the moment, Hou Junji, who had just returned triumphantly, was complacent. He didn''t know that his plunder had been exposed. What he thought was that he had sealed the waiting general by virtue of his victory over Gaochang and jumped to replace Li Jingjun as a God.


    "You guys, the city of Chang''an is thirty miles away from here. This general will certainly ask for meritorious service for you. In the future, you will be appointed to worship generals. Don''t forget the meaning of our fellow robes." Hou Junji said with satisfaction.


    Xin liao''er immediately agreed: "general, what''s this? If the general is not as diligent as God, how can we enjoy the power of destroying the country? The general will be rewarded by his majesty when he goes to Chang''an city."


    "What general Xin said is very true. This war was planned by a great general. Only in this war can we go down to Gaochang and scare away the Western Turks for thousands of miles." Xue Wanjun echoed.


    "Follow the general to get promoted and become rich. Where can I find such good things?" Xin liao''er said with a smile.


    Other generals couldn''t help laughing. Although the troops made great achievements in the last western expedition to Tuyuhun, they were only rewarded by the imperial court. This time, their income from Gaochang is an astronomical figure, not to mention the good thing of waiting for generals after they will go to Chang''an city.


    Hou Junji nodded with satisfaction. He allowed the generals to plunder, but he didn''t mean to win over the generals.


    Suddenly, a motorcade came from the direction of Chang''an City and went straight to the victorious army of the western expedition.


    "General, there are people from the imperial court." Xin liaoer, with sharp eyes, hurriedly reported.


    Thirty miles outside Chang''an City, Hou Junji was not satisfied. It can be seen how much his majesty attached importance to him. He was already on the door. He didn''t want to be criticized for his pride and rushed forward.


    "It''s two generals." Hou Junji went to the ceremony and saw that the guests were Li Ji and Li daozong. Li daozong and Li Ji had a high status. Li Shimin sent two people to meet Hou Junji, which can be said to give Hou Junji face.


    Li Ji arched his hand and said, "congratulations on general Hou''s triumphant return!"


    Hou Junji laughed and said, "General Li is polite. Hou is just a fluke and doesn''t dare to take credit."


    In addition to trying to replace Li Jing, Hou Junji also taboo Li Ji. He knows that this person''s talent for unifying troops is not under him, and he is deeply trusted by Li Shimin.


    Li daozong sighed: "general Hou has a bright future, but why are you so confused and destroy your future."


    "Confused?" Hou Junji was stunned when he heard Li daozong''s words, and a bad feeling arose spontaneously.


    Li daozong couldn''t bear to say, "Lord Shangshu, the longitudinal soldiers of the western expedition have robbed Gaochang. Please come with the Ministry of punishment."


    Li daozong was also a military commander. He had also seen the battle of Tuyuhun in the western expedition. Naturally, he knew how rare it was to destroy the country, but Hou Junji personally destroyed his country.


    "Rob Gaochang!" Hou Junji immediately stayed there. He didn''t expect his energetic and victorious return. In the twinkling of an eye, he became a prisoner who violated the military law.


    As the Minister of the Ministry of war, he naturally knows how big the crime of longitudinal looting is. In those years, Li Jing had been criticized for conniving soldiers to loot Turks. Finally, he had to resign and retire, let alone take the lead in longitudinal looting. I''m afraid he will be even more guilty.


    Funny to say, he was determined to replace Li Jing all his life, but he stepped on the pit that Li Jing stepped on, and even stained with mud.


    "The great general has just made great contributions to the imperial court. You can''t let the meritorious officials chill." Xin liao''er panicked when he saw Hou Junji taken away. He couldn''t escape the looting of Gaochang. He immediately wanted to encourage the generals to resist collectively.


    Li Ji immediately shouted coldly, "are you trying to rebel? What do you think this is? This is Chang''an city."


    Li Ji''s bluff made all the generals wake up. This place is only thirty miles away from Chang''an city. If they dare to make any change, it is undoubtedly to die. Moreover, Li Ji''s status is second only to Hou Junji and has great prestige in the army. The agitation among the generals soon subsided.


    "Please, too!" Li daozong said calmly, looking at the generals.


    Suddenly, the generals of the western expedition came out like defeated ducks. They naturally knew that they had no luck in what they had done in Gaochang.


    Li Ji looked at all the generals of the western expedition who were almost wiped out, and then looked at Hou Junji, the leader, and couldn''t help sighing.


    If the western expedition is two examination papers, one is war record and the other is virtue, Hou Junji handed over a full score in war record, but he handed over a zero score in virtue.

 Chapter 1199

    "All the generals of the western expedition were put in prison!"


    The people of Chang''an did not wait for the triumphant army to return across the street, but waited for the news that all the generals of the western expedition were imprisoned. For a moment, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar.


    "As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit dies, a running dog cooks, and a flying bird makes a good bow! This is the same truth for thousands of years. I didn''t expect that even his majesty today.................." an old man said in a low voice with a face of vicissitudes.


    "Fart, your majesty is at the peak of spring and autumn, far from being old and mediocre. There is no need to kill the founding heroes indiscriminately." some people don''t believe it.


    "Yes, Hou Junji has just made a great contribution to the destruction of the country. Even if the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog cooks, it won''t be so urgent. But I heard that Hou Junji is very domineering. In addition, the generals of the western expedition are imprisoned this time. I think they must have made a big mistake on the way of the western expedition. This angered your majesty." a wise man analyzed it.


    "What kind of fault can be compared with the power of destroying the country." people guessed one after another.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Chang''an people speculated and talked about it one after another. It was not until the real news came out that everyone was in an uproar.


    "The generals of the western expedition plundered Gaochang!"


    All the people are in an uproar. As the people at the bottom, they feel the most. Whenever they suffer from a military disaster, they are the ones who are really hurt. The so-called bandits are like combs and soldiers are like grates. A military disaster is far more hateful than a bandit disaster.


    Moreover, the last time, ten years ago, Li Jing sent troops to Turks, only acquiesced in the soldiers'' looting of property, and was criticized by the government and the public without participating. This time, Hou Junji took the lead in looting Gaochang, and other generals followed suit. Its nature is even worse. No wonder Li Shimin was so angry that he directly jailed Hou Junji and others.


    "Not all the generals of the western regions, and the Mohists did not participate in the looting." a merchant saw clearly.


    "Mojia Zi!" everyone was stunned, and then nodded as they should. If others can make the mud without contamination, the people of Chang''an naturally don''t believe it. However, when they heard that Mojia Zi didn''t participate in the looting, everyone didn''t hesitate to believe it, because the financial resources of Mojia village naturally don''t look down on Gaochang''s money, let alone such dishonest money, It is against the idea of Mohism.


    There was an uproar among the people, and there was a undercurrent in the court. Whenever soldiers looted in war, it was inevitable. Most of them were acquiescence. It was a way to gather the hearts of the army and motivate the soldiers. However, the chief manager personally participated in the looting for the first time. The military could not help but secretly hate Hou Junji. It was really obsessed with money and would do such a thing, Let the rules that the military has always acquiesced in be directly exposed to the world.


    "Tell your majesty that the generals of the western expedition have just made the contribution of destroying the country and returned home in triumph. Although they are wrong, the last general thinks that their shortcomings do not hide their shortcomings, and asks your majesty to give them a lighter punishment." Xue wanche pleaded, and his brother Xue Wanjun was also jailed. As a younger brother, he had to plead.


    The generals pleaded for him one after another, hoping to offset the merits and demerits and reduce the punishment.


    "Never, merit is merit, fault is fault, and merit and fault do not equal." Ma Jiayun quickly objected.


    "Can''t you even destroy the country?" Xue wanche said angrily.


    Ma Jiayun can''t help but delay. The contribution of destroying the country is the highest war merit of the Tang Dynasty. If he opposes, he may really annoy the military.


    Seeing this, Yu Zhining came forward to help him and said, "the work of destroying the country is indeed remarkable. However, Hou Junji is proud of his achievements. As a major general and chief marching officer, he knows the law and violates the law and destroys the military discipline of the Tang Dynasty. His crime is one more class. I''m afraid the work of destroying the country is not enough to make up for it."


    Li Shimin''s face changed. He was most angry with Hou Junji for breaking the law and taking the lead in looting Gaochang. If it was the behavior of individual soldiers, Li Shimin might not be so angry. However, Hou Junji''s leading violation of the military law directly destroyed the military discipline of more than 100000 troops, which is not allowed by any emperor.


    Li Shimin didn''t see Gaochang''s finance. What he really cared about was the 100000 elite army, which was the foundation of Datang. Once it was rotten, I''m afraid the foundation of Datang would be dangerous.


    "Needless to say, Hou Junji, as the chief manager of the marching Road, took the lead in violating military regulations and betraying my trust. He deserved it." Li Shimin snorted coldly and left.


    The generals could not help sighing. They immediately knew that Li Shimin was angry, and it was useless to persuade him again.


    "Vulgar Wufu!"


    Many civil servants immediately smiled with pride. This is where most civil servants despise military generals. They act rudely and don''t understand etiquette. It''s not that civil servants don''t have moths, but even civil servants'' corruption will be carefully covered up by every means. As long as they are not arrested in prison, civil servants are all masters of Qingtian.


    Moreover, in recent years, military generals have repeatedly destroyed the country and become arrogant one by one. This is the situation of Hou Junji today. Civil servants just take this opportunity to destroy the prestige of military generals.


    In the prison, Hou Junji sat in the cell. Even in the cell, he still maintained the demeanor of his great general. However, in his heart, his anger had already been burning.


    Although he was in the prison, it did not affect Hou Junji''s knowledge of the information outside the prison and the trend of the court. His crime of robbing Gaochang was to be beheaded according to the new rules in the army, not to mention that as a general, they knew the law and violated the law, and their crimes were even more serious. The government and the public attacked one after another, and the emperor was angry.


    It was the most proud moment of Hou Junji''s life to return with the power of destroying the country. Now he has changed and become a prisoner. He has simply become the biggest laughing stock in the world. How can the arrogant Hou Junji accept it.


    "It''s over! I knew......" Niu JINDA regretted.


    After five years of hard work in the three Liao States, he came out and took the opportunity of the western expedition. He could have taken this opportunity to improve his rank. Unfortunately, his previous achievements were wasted because of a little money.


    The other generals could not help sighing and looked pale. This time, let alone credit, whether they could keep their lives was another matter.


    "If Hou Junji hadn''t taken the lead......"


    Immediately, the generals couldn''t help but focus on Hou Junji. Xin liao''er on one side noticed the generals'' eyes and said angrily, "what are you worried about? We have just returned from the victory of destroying the country. What''s this fault? In my opinion, your majesty will let me out in a few days."


    Hope suddenly rose in the hearts of the people.


    However, as each day passed, his majesty still did not mean to let them out, and there were not many people at all. On the contrary, the wave of civil officials impeaching them was rising day by day.


    "The Mohists are still smart!" in the prison, the generals of the western expedition looked at each other and suddenly found that all the generals of the western expedition were here, except one, the Mohists.


    Xin liao''er suddenly changed his face and said with jealousy and hatred in his heart: "I don''t think so. We''ll all go to jail. Why can the Mohist school be alone? Maybe we''ll be punished by the Mohist family today."


    Suddenly, the generals could not help but have some more thoughts in their hearts. Although they all knew the reason why Mo Jiazi did not participate in the looting, they were in prison and were about to kill their heads, while Mo Jiazi enjoyed prosperity and wealth outside. This gap added a seed of hatred to their hearts.


    "Mojiazi!"


    In Hou Junji''s eyes, the cold star flashed.


    In the turbid world, INNOCENCE may be a sin.

 Chapter 1200

    "I''m guilty!"


    At the Tai Chi hall, Merton personally came to apologize to Li Shimin.


    In an instant, the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty moved. Among the whole western expedition army, only mojiazi was spared from prison. Now mojiazi personally came to the door to apologize, which made them a little confused.


    Li Shimin took a deep look at Mohist. He didn''t know what else Merton was doing. He was proud to say slowly, "what''s your sin?"


    "One of my sins is that when I learned about the looting, I had foreseen today''s situation, but I ignored the friendship of paoze and didn''t stop it. I sat and watched my fellow robes sink deeper and deeper, so that today''s situation appeared." Merton bowed his head and said in pain.


    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help sighing. The Mohists were always famous for their wisdom. How could they not have known the consequences of the longitudinal plunder? Although the Mohists were clean and didn''t participate in the plunder, they didn''t try their best to stop it, otherwise they wouldn''t have the situation today.


    "The second crime of the minister is not to be a head bird. Although the minister did not plunder, he still took two kinds of secret skills from Gaochang. Although he tried his best to remedy it afterwards, it is undeniable that he has selfishness." Merton bowed again.


    The man Dynasty couldn''t help but be in an uproar. No matter which time he attacked him with the Mo family''s private Gaochang secret skills, the Mo family denied it. No one thought that at the moment, the Mo family''s son would personally admit this crime for the sake of the generals of the western expedition.


    "Tell your majesty that since Mo Jijiu personally admitted that he took Gaochang''s secret skill privately, its value is no less than the property robbed by the generals, please send him to prison and punish him." Ma Jiayun said excitedly. Mo Jiazi confessed himself, and he couldn''t wait to fall into the well.


    "Your Majesty''s ministers think that the ink sacrifice is excusable, so if the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if it is piled up on the shore, the current will be turbulent; if it is higher than people, the people will not be. At that time, all the generals of the western expedition had participated in the looting, and only the ink sacrifice was innocent. Where do you come from when you are in the ink sacrifice?" Qin Qiong said.


    The ministers could not help but sigh. When Qu Yuan shouted that the world was turbid, and I crossed the Qing Dynasty, everyone was drunk and I woke up alone. The end was that he threw himself into the Wujiang River. Mohist Zi was in Gaochang thousands of miles away, and all the generals were stained. If Mohist Zi was out of mud and did not dye, I''m afraid it would be dangerous. I have to say that Mohist Zi was clever in covering up the past with two secret skills.


    "Just a small profit, how can we damage our virtue? Weichen would rather die than damage his virtue. From the perspective of Weichen, ink offering wine is just an early excuse for taking secret skills for himself. His favorite secret skills in his life are not forced to keep himself." Yu Zhining fell into a stone in the well.


    Many ministers echoed: "if Mohist took some property, it might be forced, but if he took secret skills, I''m afraid he would follow his heart."


    For a while, the court and the central government were divided into two factions. One supported Merton and understood Merton''s behavior, while the other demanded that Merton be punished and immediately sent to prison.


    Li Shimin suddenly looked embarrassed. He didn''t expect that the Mexican family who had withdrawn from the matter should take the initiative to throw themselves into the net. Is he fulfilling the friendship of robes and Ze during the western expedition?


    Seeing Li Shimin''s embarrassment, Li daozong couldn''t help but remind him: "I inform your majesty that ink sacrifice has been removed from office. The so-called one crime can''t be punished twice. If this matter doesn''t come to an end."


    The courtiers could not help but delay. It occurred to them that they had attacked Merton twice, and Merton had been dismissed. Therefore, the firearms prison was divided into two. I''m afraid it would be unreasonable to impose additional punishment.


    Li Shimin then took the opportunity to go down the slope and said slowly, "let''s call it a day. Besides, since you can get away wisely in the western regions, you don''t really want to apologize today. If you have anything to say, don''t beat around the Bush!"


    Morton''s face was embarrassed and said, "Weichen has come to intercede for your colleagues."


    As soon as Merton said this, the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty immediately showed a sure expression.


    "Intercede! You were in Gaochang at that time and experienced this personally. You should know better that the crimes of the generals of the western expedition are well-documented. Otherwise, you wouldn''t get out of your shell to get rid of the crime." Li Shimin looked at the Mexican family with bad eyes.


    Merton nodded slightly: "I do understand that, but I can tell the rise and fall by taking history as a mirror. I looked through the history books and found that many generals plundered in history. During the Western Han Dynasty, Li Guangli, the general of the second division, spent 50000 troops and hundreds of millions of money. Finally, he only got 30 horses. Although he was greedy and tyrannical, he was finally granted the title of Marquis of Haixi by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.


    During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chen Tang Jiao, the commander of the Western Han Dynasty, sent troops to kill Zhi Zhishan Yu. Emperor yuan of the Han Dynasty sent him to prison and finally made him a marquis in the pass. Wang Jun, a general of the Western Jin Dynasty, plundered him after calming the eastern Wu. Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty pardoned him for his crimes and rewarded him greatly. Even the former Korea and South Korea captured tigers and plundered Chen Shubao''s Imperial Palace in the south. Emperor Wen ignored it, added officials to Zhuguo, and marched on the West Will just make a mistake that all military generals in the world may make. "


    In an instant, almost all the civil and military ministers looked at the Mohist family like scum men. They couldn''t believe that this sentence was learned from the Mohist family. But I don''t know what''s going on. This sentence seems to have a kind of magic. People can''t help but agree that there are some mistakes.


    "It''s just a fallacious heresy. It''s precisely because there are such examples in the previous dynasty that Hou Junji and others are allowed to plunder recklessly and corrupt the military discipline of the Tang Dynasty. If they are not punished, I''m afraid some generals will follow suit in the future." Ma Jiayun angrily scolded. He thinks he is a gentleman and naturally dislikes such scum men''s statements of the Mohist school.


    Li Shimin''s face is gloomy. He doesn''t know how emperors in history deal with this kind of thing, but he not only wants to deal with Hou Junji, but also wants to take this opportunity to rectify military discipline and let future generals put an end to this phenomenon, and Li Shimin has higher aspirations.


    "I am not only the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but also the Khan of the world."


    Now Gaochang has been incorporated into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin thinks it is necessary to make decisions for the Gaochang people.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing: "Your Majesty knows that the generals of the western expedition can travel seven thousand miles and easily conquer Gaochang. What''s more, they frighten the Western Turks to flee thousands of miles. They are all capable of fighting and brave talents. Does your majesty want a group of valiant generals who can win the war, or a group of generals who respect discipline and abide by the law but do nothing?"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help thinking. His eyes flashed and said, "if I want a strong general who can win the war, do I want all the generals to abide by the law?"


    "If the minister has a plan, he can satisfy his majesty." Merton Lang said.


    In an instant, everyone''s eyes focused on Merton. No one thought that the mojiazi had the idea of reforming the military system in addition to coming to plead for the generals of the western expedition.

 Chapter 1201

    "Say!" Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    Merton took a deep breath and solemnly said: "Mohist sages once said that absolute power will lead to absolute corruption. Since ancient times, generals have been robbing for many times. What''s more, it''s because when fighting, the generals have too much power and take all life and death. They can even avoid the life of the monarch outside. It''s because the generals have too much military power and are not constrained. This makes the looting happen many times."


    "Absolute power leads to absolute corruption."


    Li Shimin''s face changed. If according to Merton, the greatest power is probably him, wouldn''t he also be absolutely corrupt.


    The ministers could not help sighing. The Mexican family was really bold. They even dared to say this, but they had to admit that the Mexican family had come to the point.


    "The minister can assert that the western expedition is not the first time, but it is definitely not the last. If you want to completely solve this matter, you must divide power." Merton is sonorous and powerful.


    "Decentralization!" the general of cultural relics was in an uproar. No one thought that mojiazi wanted to change the military system.


    Sun Chong, the commander of the firearm army, directly went out and angrily denounced: "nonsense! The generals most taboo both ends of snakes and mice. The so-called military order is bound to be reached as soon as it is issued. If power is divided, I''m afraid it will only delay the fighters and miss the good opportunity. Sun Tzu''s art of war said........"


    He has just won the post of general of the firearm army. He dares not neglect reading military books day and night. He knows that a general must be decisive and make no progress at once, otherwise he will only be defeated. At the right time, Mo Jiazi proposed decentralization. Chang sun Chong can''t wait to attack, and takes sun Zibing law as an example.


    Merton looked at Chang sun Chong and said coldly, "General Chang sun has just come into contact with the book of war. Don''t just talk about war on paper, talk about art of war, and don''t just recite a few books of war to win the war."


    "That general is like listening to the advice of Mo sacrificing wine!" the eldest sun smiled angrily.


    He had been involved in firearms and military goods by mojiazi using gunpowder secrets before, and now he was proposed by mojiazi to divide the power of generals. In this way, he, the newly appointed general of the firearms army, was too timid.


    Merton did not look at Chang sun Chong, but bowed to Li Shimin: "What Wei Chen said about decentralization is to separate the power of the chief General to unify the army from the power of managing the army. In an army, it is necessary to set up a chief General and a deputy general. The chief general is responsible for unifying the army and killing the enemy. Under the military order, the chief General dares not to obey. Once the war is over, the military power will return to the deputy general, and the deputy general is responsible for the daily management of military affairs, Be responsible for the discipline of officers and soldiers and record their military achievements. Such decentralization will not affect the marching and fighting of the main general. With the supervision and checks and balances of the deputy general, there will be no arbitrariness of the main general. "


    "The right to command and govern the army," Merton said.


    Suddenly, Li Shimin''s eyes lit up. In this way, it will not affect the March and war, but also completely solve the situation of the Lord general''s dominance.


    Moreover, this law seems to be able to maintain stability in the army. On weekdays, the Lord general has no military power and has no right to mobilize the army. Naturally, it is impossible to rebel, and the deputy general has insufficient power. Even if he commands 100000 troops, he has no qualification and strength to rebel. This is really a good policy.


    "Wei Chen also believes that the reason why there are frequent longitudinal looting in the army is also related to the law popularization education in the army. For a long time, the soldiers only fight, but they don''t understand the military law. Even if they violate the military law, they are calculated afterwards. If the standing military judge in the army often popularizes the military law for the soldiers, he will stop the longitudinal looting in time whenever he finds that the soldiers violate the military law This is the way to completely eliminate the looting of generals, instead of punishing meritorious officers and men afterwards to deter military discipline, rather than killing without teaching, "Merton said.


    "Kill without teaching?" Li Shimin frowned. The army is indeed a group of rough men, who don''t know big words and don''t say anything. If we popularize the military law and let them know the consequences of longitudinal looting, I''m afraid there will be no looting of 100000 troops.


    "The two ministers found that there was no formal military law in the Tang Dynasty, and the same laws of the Tang Dynasty were used to try soldiers and ordinary people, let alone formal military courts. Things in the military were very special circumstances and could not be handled or tried equally with the civil law." Merton suggested.


    The civil and military generals sighed that the separation of powers between the main general and the deputy general, military judges, the compilation of military laws, military courts and everything done by mojiazi would have a great impact on the military. More importantly, these methods are practical and feasible, not only Li Shimin, but also they were persuaded by mojiazi.


    "Military justice and military court! This policy is feasible! Fang Aiqing, I''ll leave it to you!" Li Shimin nodded slightly.


    Fang Xuanling couldn''t help sighing. He immediately knew that there would be a lot of work to do in the law of Zhenguan compiled by him, and the completion date of the law of Zhenguan might have to be postponed.


    Merton said, "Wei Chen is studying the theory of contradiction and found that good and bad are often one. Although it is a mistake for the generals of the western expedition to plunder, it is the imperfection of the military system of the Tang Dynasty, if the imperial court takes this opportunity to reform the military system, make up for the lost sheep and completely solve this eternal problem, it will be a blessing in disguise."


    "Make up for the lost! Ministers agree with Mo Jijiu''s proposal to reform the military system." Li Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of war, took the lead. Hou Junji and the generals of the western expedition are soldiers and must be saved. However, the premise to save Hou Junji and others is to admit that there are loopholes in the military system of the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Shimin was very excited. He didn''t really want to kill Hou Junji, but wanted to beat the arrogant Hou Junji. At the same time, he asked all countries to explain, maintain the reputation of Tian Khan, let alone accidentally get the plan to reform the military system, which alleviated his anger.


    "Before the Tang Dynasty, there were some loopholes in the military system. This is why the generals of the western expedition are getting deeper and deeper. I am also responsible for Gaochang. If I don''t ask about the indiscriminate punishment, I will be punished without teaching! The generals of the western expedition have made great contributions to the state. Although they are at fault, they will make atonement for their achievements, and give orders to release the generals of the western expedition immediately." Li Shimin ordered.


    "Minister, take orders!" Li daozong took orders and hurried away.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" a group of military generals kowtow one after another. Although civil servants are unwilling, they are not without harvest. Once the military reform of the Tang Dynasty, they can better clamp down on military generals.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing. Li Shimin only asked Hou Junji and others to make atonement for their achievements. The previous credit was naturally written off, and he didn''t follow the previous dynasty''s method of soliciting ministers. However, this may be Li Shimin''s self-confidence. He believes he can frighten the generals. Merton doesn''t know whether he has a private move. I hope Hou Junji won''t go back to the old way this time.

 Chapter 1202

    Dungeon!


    The generals of the western expedition were dejected and lifeless. Once upon a time, they returned triumphantly with the victory of destroying the country, but now they have become prisoners, not to mention their official positions, and even their small lives are not guaranteed.


    Only Hou Junji was still strong, and he didn''t believe that Li Shimin would really kill the general who had just made the contribution to the destruction of the country. It was based on this self-confidence that when the overall situation of Gaochang had been determined, he would have the courage to embezzle Gaochang''s property.


    However, for many days, the court still locked them in the prison and didn''t mean to let them out, which made Hou Junji a little more frightened.


    "Squeak".


    The gate of the prison was heavily opened and came in through a glimmer of light. The generals suddenly looked uneasily at the entrance of the prison. They saw that Li daozong, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, personally came to the prison.


    "Lord Shangshu!"


    "General Li!"


    The generals of the western expedition hurriedly shouted


    They knew that they had been in prison for many days, but there must be constant disputes in the court, and the situation was not clear, that is, no one tried them, and no senior officials appeared. Li daozong appeared in the prison, which showed that the court had reached a conclusion about their looting of Gaochang, otherwise Li daozong, the Minister of punishment, would not come to see them in person.


    Li daozong looked at the crowd and said, "you are confused!"


    All the generals were sad and ashamed.


    Hou Junji''s eyes flashed, and he heard a trace of the limelight from Li daozong''s mouth. His face immediately changed, and he was ashamed and said, "sin has made Hou Junji a great mistake, whether it is punishment or murder, and his majesty can punish him."


    "Excuse me, Minister!" the generals are also smart people. Naturally, they know that Li Shimin can get rid of his crime based on his previous feelings, otherwise they can only completely annoy Li Shimin.


    Sure enough, Li daozong''s words changed: "fortunately, your majesty reads the old love and allows you to atone for your sins. Please!" Li daozong stretched out his hand and said.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" the generals of the western expedition breathed a sigh of relief and felt like they would survive.


    "Thank you for your grace!" Hou Junji bowed deeply towards the palace, and other generals bowed one after another.


    Li daozong looked at the performance of the ministers and nodded with satisfaction. However, he did not find a trace of evil in Hou Junji''s eyes.


    make amends for one ''s crimes by good deeds!


    Among the generals, only Hou Junji paid the most painful price, which was his hard won contribution to the destruction of the country. He originally wanted to go further and become an existence side by side with Li Jing, but now it has become empty talk,


    Li daozong said that if he made atonement for his meritorious deeds, his hard won efforts to destroy the country may also be lost. What makes him even more depressed is that since then, with this stain, his political future has been ruined. I''m afraid he won''t have this chance again if he wants to lead the army alone and regain his efforts to destroy the country in the future.


    When the generals of the western expedition walked out of the prison and looked at the bright sunshine, they felt more awe of Li Shimin.


    "Master, please step over the fire basin and have bad luck!"


    Hou''s house, Hou''s tears of joy, put a brazier in front of the door. Hou Junji is the pillar of Hou''s house. The return of the western expedition was originally the most glorious moment of Hou''s house, but who ever thought of this thing. Now hou Junji returned safely. Hou was relieved. As long as Hou Junji was there, the glory and wealth of Hou''s house could be preserved.


    "Don''t worry, madam. Your majesty will miss the old love most. I''ll be fine for my husband."


    Hou Junji did not refuse to step over and comfort his wife.


    Hou wiped his eyes and said with tears, "husband, don''t be spoiled and charming. This time, it''s not Mo Hou speaking out in the court. Otherwise, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty will impeach your husband. Your majesty can''t do anything even to read the old feelings."


    "Mo Jia Zi!" Hou Junji frowned. He didn''t think it was mo Jia Zi.


    "Marquis Mo personally went to the Tai Chi hall to plead guilty, said that he failed to fulfill the righteousness of robe and Ze, urged his husband, and proposed to take this as a warning and reform the military system. Only then did he persuade his majesty to let his husband make atonement for his meritorious service..." Hou simply told the story of the court.


    When Hou Junji heard this, he immediately frowned and said unhappily, "what a Mexican son, he stepped on my head."


    This time, he took the lead in looting Gaochang and was directly impeached by the officials, but the Mohist school did the opposite. He obviously pleaded guilty for the generals of the western expedition, but in fact he played a role in reforming the military system. I''m afraid that from now on, his Hou Junji will become a negative example of the Mohist school.


    Hou hurriedly advised: "husband, don''t say so. No matter how, Mo Hou also saved his husband."


    "Save me?" Hou Junji sneered. "The Mohist school is just fishing for fame and reputation. All the generals of the western expedition are in prison. He is alone and will certainly be criticized by the world, so he has to stand up. Now, he not only shows his innocence, but takes the opportunity to make contributions. It''s killing two birds with one stone."


    "But......" Hou knew his husband''s character and wanted to persuade him again, but he was interrupted by Hou Junji.


    "Needless to say, I''m tired for my husband and want to be quiet for a while!" Hou Junji said with a tired face.


    Knowing Hou Junji''s character, Hou sighed helplessly and got up to leave.


    After Hou''s departure, Hou Junji sighed, suddenly got up, came to a secret room, saw two exquisite gold mats, suddenly showed an angry look, brushed out his long knife and aimed at the two gold mats.


    "If it weren''t for these two vulgar things, how could our general fall into such a situation." Hou Junji was angry and wanted to destroy the two culprits.


    However, when he really waved his knife, he couldn''t do anything. After all, the golden mat was very valuable and exquisite. If it was damaged, there would be some gold wires left, and the loss would be heavy.


    "Confucianists and Mohists don''t have a good thing!" Hou Junji said angrily. Now that the matter has come to this point, even if he cuts the golden mat with a knife, he has lost too much. I''m afraid the golden mat in front of him will be the most valuable booty of his Western Expedition.


    Finally, Hou Junji sighed dejectedly and walked out of the secret room. Behind him, two exquisite gold mats remained in the secret room.


    However, Hou Junji did not know that the treasure was innocent. What really put him in this situation was his selfish and greedy character.


    In the same secret room, Yu Zhining and Ma Jiayun were silent.


    "It''s the Mohist family''s intervention that makes Confucianism fall short. Otherwise, it will certainly make the strategists look good by making an example of Hou Junji." Ma Jiayun hates to say that he is the most radical person in Confucianism. He has always wanted to suppress other hundred schools and maintain the status of Confucianism.


    Yu Zhining shook his head and said with a smile, "although the strategists escaped this time, it is not without harvest. The method of reforming the military system proposed by Mo Jiazi is also a bridle tied to the strategists, and the arrogant momentum of the strategists is no longer the same."


    Although the process was very tortuous, the goal of attacking strategists was finally completed. Whether Hou Junji was imprisoned or reformed the military system, Hou Junji left a lot of opportunities


    "Next, it''s the Mohist school."


    The two people have a good look at each other. The momentum of the strategists has fallen. Next is the prevailing Mohist school. If you want to attack the Mohist school, the Mohist school is the key.

 Chapter 1203

    With the release of Hou Junji and others, the original excited court hall returned to calm, and the grand western expedition finally came to an end. Although there were some defects, it did not affect the overall situation.


    However, it caused a storm among the people, but it did not stop. When the general and the Minister of the Ministry of war were jailed, the Mohist son pleaded guilty in the Tai Chi hall in order to save his fellow robes, and everything made the people enjoy talking about.


    "Is there a crime in Mohist school?"


    For a while, it has become a topic of common people in Chang''an.


    "Of course, the MOH family is innocent. He is not only clean and has not participated in the looting, but also restricts the firearm army. None of the firearm Army soldiers looted, which is the only face of the western expedition. How can he be guilty?"


    "Yes! The Mo family''s apology was just to save Hou Junji and others. Later, they gave the law of reforming the military system to make atonement for the generals of the western expedition."


    "The ink family is sentimental and righteous, and naturally innocent!"


    Chang''an people who supported the Mohist School said one after another.


    "No! The MOH family is guilty!"


    "One of his sins is to plunder Gaochang''s Secret skills. I''m afraid the value of wine secret skills and textile secret skills is far better than the stolen goods plundered by Hou Junji. In my opinion, the Mohist school is just a little smarter and doesn''t take money directly." a merchant snorted coldly.


    With the entry into force of the prohibition order and the listing of the wine produced by mojiazi at the foot of Yantai Mountain in Dengzhou, it immediately attracted the pursuit of the people of the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that people''s eyes turned red with envy. For a moment, the theory of mojiazi robbing Gaochang in a disguised form spread widely.


    "The second of his sins is to fish for fame. In order to protect himself in Gaochang, the Mohist School polluted himself with Gaochang''s Secret skills. When he returned to Datang to plead for paoze''s reputation, he pretended to plead for mercy for the generals. In fact, it was only for his own reputation." a scholar snorted coldly.


    When someone asks, how should they deal with themselves after they put themselves in the position and the reputation of Mohism.


    "Uphold justice and die!"


    The scholar said with awe inspiring righteousness.


    Everyone was speechless, but they couldn''t help laughing. Everyone would talk big, and the practice of Mohist school was probably the smartest.


    "The third of Mohist''s crimes is the crime of belligerence!" a middle-aged scholar shouted.


    "Don''t Mohists always advocate non attack for the crime of belligerence?" they were stunned


    "Non attack!" the middle-aged scholar snorted coldly: "That''s the Mohist school before. Today''s Mohist school has nothing to do with non attack. You can count it. Since Mohist school was born, it has never missed a war. What''s more, Mohist school, known as non attack, is in charge of the firearm prison and has studied the method of breaking the city with one blow. It''s even more rumored that Mohist school holds a peerless weapon and the victim will die. Such Mohist is not only belligerent, but also Mohist The sinners of Mohism will lead Mohism astray. "


    All of a sudden, there was an uproar. Some people wanted to defend the Mohist family, but they were speechless, because these are facts. Driven by people with intentions, the Mohist family''s theory of greed for money, love for fame and belligerence is very popular in Chang''an city.


    The Confucian journal naturally did not miss this opportunity. It seemed to report the debate fairly, but in fact it contributed to the fire. For a while, the reputation of Mohist school was greatly damaged.


    "Hahaha! You also have today in the Mohist school!" Wei Si''an laughed wildly in the Confucian journal. He has always been unhappy with Mohist school. Now he has been inspired by Confucianism and naturally spared no effort to discredit Mohist school.


    "As the saying goes, if heaven wants people to die, we must first let them go crazy. The Mo family is too arrogant, so there is today''s disaster. Besides, we don''t arrange the Mo family. The Confucian journals publish iron facts." editor in chief Ma sneered.


    "This time, I''d like to see how the Mohists sophistry?" Wei Si''an said proudly.


    In the Mo mansion.


    "Greedy for money, love fame and be belligerent! It seems that there are good Confucianists who attack the Mohist school from the reputation." Merton looked at the Confucian journal in his hand and shook his head with a smile. Both the Confucian and Mohist families have already fought each other economically and politically. This time, the Confucian school is unique and attacks the Mohist school from the reputation.


    "Master, disciple, I''ll inform uncle Mo San and ask him to correct his name in the ink journal." Wu Meiniang angrily said that it was she who found the article in the Confucian journal and came to report to Merton at the first time.


    Merton shook his head and said, "how can this kind of thing be justified? In the end, it can only be described more and more dark. If the Mohists defend in the ink magazine, it is right in the abacus of the Confucian magazine. They are worried that they can''t make things bigger."


    "Then Sue Confucianism magazine for slander, let them publish an apology in the newspaper, and reject the previous report. Di Renjie, you write the petition," said Di Renjie, who was commanded by Wu Meiniang.


    Di Renjie glanced at Wu Meiniang and said carefully, "what Mo magazine said is what Mo Hou has done. Although his position is somewhat biased, it is all facts. I''m afraid we can''t convict him with slander."


    "Let you write, you write. Which side are you on?" Wu Meiniang was angry. When she heard Di Renjie''s words, she was angry.


    Di Renjie''s face drooped and helpless.


    "It''s not necessary to write a petition. As di Renjie said, it''s useless at all." Merton waved his hand.


    "Then you can''t let them slander master''s reputation!" Wu Meiniang said anxiously.


    Merton said, "these are all facts. How can we say slander!"


    "Ah!" Wu Mei Niang couldn''t help but be surprised. She didn''t expect master to plead guilty so simply.


    Merton didn''t think so and said, "just take this opportunity to teach another lesson for the teacher!"


    "Mo Hou teaches!" Di Renjie couldn''t help but be shocked by the speech. If the Mo family is a famous teacher, I''m afraid no one doubts it. Several lectures for Wu Meiniang have been talked about and become classics.


    Unfortunately, he is not a Mohist child, but a legalist child. Now Di Renjie arched his hand and said, "boy, step down first."


    "No, today''s lesson is about sin. Today''s lesson will be of great benefit to you in the future." Merton stretched out his hand to stop.


    "But the boy is a legalist." Di Renjie said sadly.


    "So what? Mo is a descendant of the Mohist school. He didn''t attend classes in master Han''s hall to study law." Merton said.


    Wu Meiniang said proudly, "that is, self-study only makes cars behind closed doors. Only by winning the strengths of a hundred schools can we carry forward our own theory."


    "Thank you for your teaching!" Di Renjie, who is also a wise man, arched his hands to Merton and thanked him.


    Merton nodded and continued, "in fact, I have not only these three sins, but also seven sins, arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, overeating and * *."


    The seven sins of later generations are Dante''s summary in the divine comedy. Today, the west is still shrouded in theology, and the Renaissance is far away. Now Merton puts forward the seven sins 600 years in advance.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang and di Renjie in deep thought and said in his heart, "I''m afraid my biggest sin is greed. I want to leave the best knowledge in the world on this great land."

 Chapter 1204

    "Mo family son pleads guilty!"


    With the release of the special issue of Ink magazine, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar. No one expected that in just a few days, the ink family would plead guilty twice, once to Li Shimin, this time to the world, and seven sins.


    "Arrogance, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, overeating, * *." mojiazi personally admitted his seven crimes and admitted that he was not a perfect person, but also had all kinds of shortcomings like ordinary people.


    "Being a Mohist is proud of the glory of Mohism, but being a Mohist is arrogant."


    "I was jealous of the other hundred."


    "Invented the carriage because of laziness."


    "If you want food, build a greenhouse and make ice to turn the four seasons upside down."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Tangtang mojiazi directly analyzes his heart and displays his true heart in front of everyone. What people see is no longer an omnipotent mojiazi who has repeatedly created miracles, but a kind of flesh and blood mojiazi.


    Many people immediately felt the same. These seven sins are not only the Mohist family, but almost everyone in the world. It can be said that everyone bears these seven sins.


    "Everyone is born with seven sins, but if one of them suddenly enlarges, it will go astray."


    "However, I''m afraid the reason why we rise together to attack the Mexican family is precisely out of envy."


    "Once the crime of * * is magnified, it will become an evil person."


    "I''m afraid Hou Junji committed the crime of greed, which led him astray."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an took the seven sins for example one after another, but found that they were very consistent. Almost all crimes can find the root from the seven sins.


    In Hou''s house, Hou Junji is embracing two beautiful women with beautiful skin and snow, lying on the exquisite golden mat, drinking and having fun.


    "General, this is just produced human milk. Please take it for Mrs. general." a servant respectfully offered two cups of white liquid.


    Hou Junji looked at the delicate skin of the beauty beside him and said proudly, "although Mozi has some skills and can see the wonderful use of milk, he doesn''t know that human milk is better. Please, ladies!"


    The two beauties kept a smile on their faces, and they drank up the lotion, and they were able to keep their delicate skin.


    Hou Junji looked at the beauty around him, and suddenly his color heart moved. With a wave of his hand, the curtain fell, and the seven sins filled the whole room.


    "Madam! Master, he......" outside the room, a servant girl flustered.


    Hou''s face was embarrassed when he heard the noise in the house.


    "The master just got out of prison. He''s depressed. Let him go! Give more milk powder to those poor women. Don''t make their children hungry." Hou sighed and turned away from this evil place.


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin looked at the ink magazine in his hand.


    "Seven sins!" Li Shimin could not help but frown. It was arrogant for him to damage the interests of the Han family and subsidize the countries for the sake of Tian Khan''s false name. He collected the beauty of the world to enrich the harem. I''m afraid greed and * * accounted for all.


    "Seven sins! These seven sins can directly insight into the motives of the world''s crimes. They are simply the supreme weapon of the Legalists." Han Fu Zi praised in the court.


    "It''s a pity that he is not a legalist." Han Fuzi looked at di Renjie, who hates iron and doesn''t become steel.


    "Disciple let master down." Di Renjie said with a ashamed face.


    Han Fuzi sighed: "forget it, after all, not everyone is a Mohist. It''s a blessing for you to sit in on Merton''s class."


    "Indeed, after all, everyone is not such a famous teacher as mojiazi." Di Renjie whispered.


    "What are you talking about?" said Han Fuzi angrily.


    "Master, you have committed the original sin of anger!" Di Renjie said with a guilty heart and hurried away.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "The Mohist school is a good means!" Wei Si''an said angrily in the residence of the Confucian journal.


    "We accuse Mozi of three crimes, but Mozi directly admits seven crimes." editor in chief Ma frowned. Mozi''s seven crimes are so amazing that they have aroused everyone''s reflection, which is more direct than Confucius''s three-day reflection. In contrast, the three crimes they accuse of Mozi are dwarfed and no one mentions them at all.


    "How foolish the people are that they are so easily misled by Mohists." Wei Si''an said angrily. This was originally the best chance for them to attack mojiazi, but they didn''t expect that mojiazi put forward the theory of seven sins and smashed all their plots at once.


    "Mozi is really cunning, but we continue to pursue and bite the three crimes of Mozi, especially the last belligerent crime. All these are irrefutable evidence. If Mozi can''t argue, naturally someone will recognize the face of Mozi." editor in chief Ma said coldly.


    "The crime of belligerence!" Wei Si''an nodded helplessly. For the sake of today, they had to bite the Mohist son.


    At present, Confucian journals are not moved by it, continue to attack Mohism, repeatedly participate in the war, and Mohist Zi has committed the crime of betraying Mohist ideas.


    "Boss, editor in chief! The new issue of Ink magazine!"


    At this time, an editor in chief came in a hurry and handed a copy of Ink magazine to weisi''an and editor in chief ma.


    They looked at each other and smiled. They understood that with the continuous pursuit of Confucian journals, Mexican journals would certainly respond again. This time, they could not be fooled by the seven crimes talked about by the Mexican family. Sure enough, they "war is the catalyst of ink technology!"


    "Hiss!" chief editor Ma couldn''t help taking a breath. He didn''t think that mojiazi didn''t deny the accusation of Confucianism, but he admitted it without hesitation.


    "Hahaha! The Mohist family has pleaded guilty!" Wei Si''an was extremely excited and ecstatic. Once the Mohist family pleaded guilty, it would certainly have a great blow to the reputation of the Mohist family. The non offensive Mohist school, which has always advocated, has benefited from the war. This is not the best proof of abandoning the Mohist concept.


    "It won''t be so simple!" editor in chief Ma shook his head secretly. Based on his understanding of Mohist Zi, Mohist Zi must have Yin moves. At present, he continued to look down according to his patience.


    "Since ancient times, although every war is the use of military skills, it is actually a competition of the most advanced ink skills." Mohist Zi made a great splash at the beginning, and even thought that it was ink skills that dominated the war.


    "Talk big!"


    Wei Si''an snorted coldly, dismissing Mohist''s view. It''s not just Wei Si''an. Almost everyone saw this sentence. If it weren''t for Mohist''s article, almost everyone would disdain to read it.


    "When ancient humans could only fight with stone tools, the emergence of bronze weapons dominated the whole battlefield, and then the soldiers with bronze were defeated by the soldiers with iron. The soldiers with iron were defeated by the soldiers with steel knives, and the steel weapons were defeated by gunpowder weapons."


    "At any time of war, both sides involved in the war will be extremely poor. At that time, the most powerful and advanced ink technology will arm themselves and create the sharpest weapons and the hardest armor. There is no accident. The party with the most advanced ink technology often wins."


    "Boasting, there are many war cases in history that win more with less..." Wei Sian glanced at the corner of his mouth and sneered.


    Editor in chief Ma shook his head bitterly. In history, there are indeed war cases of winning more with less. However, more people still have more strength. As for winning more with less, it is not that the less party controls the advanced ink technology, and the most typical example is afraid that the five thousand Tibetan cavalry ambush the firearm army outside Yumen pass, But was completely annihilated by the firearm army in control of gunpowder weapons.


    "War is not only a place for the application of ink technology, but also a place for catalyzing ink technology. In order to win, the relatively weak party in the war will try hard to study ink technology and obtain more powerful power. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang invented wooden cattle and horses to transport grain and grass, solved the problem of transporting grain and grass in one fell swoop, reversed the decline of Shu, and gave birth to war in successive dynasties, There are countless improved ink skills. It can be said that the ink skills spawned in one year of war are better than those in ten years of peace, or even more. "


    Everyone looked at the words of the ink magazine and felt vaguely convinced by the ink family.


    "It''s no wonder that in order to encourage the imperial court to fight again and again, and emotionally, in order to revive the Mohist school, he used war to catalyze ink technology and obtain the support of the imperial court."


    "Indeed, a year of war is worth the ink technology produced in ordinary ten years. No wonder Mohism has developed rapidly in recent years. That''s why."


    "Although the country is large, belligerence will die. It is an unforgivable crime for the Mohists to incite war for their own personal gain."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    At this moment, almost everyone realized the importance of war to Mohism. War is not only the display of Mohist achievements, but also the catalytic place of Mohist ink technology. At this moment, the crime of Mohism''s belligerence is to sit back and watch. In addition, when the western expedition army looted Gaochang, it caused a wave of anti war in the whole army. For a moment, the people in Chang''an City were excited.


    "Yes, although the Gaochang rebellion was the fault of the soldiers of the western expedition, the Mo family seemed innocent, but he controlled the gunpowder weapon and was also responsible for breaking the city.


    Just as everyone was ready to continue to fight against Mozi, the last paragraph in the ink magazine poured cold water on everyone.


    "Ink technology is itself contained in heaven and earth. Not only the Mohists of the Tang Dynasty are studying, but also the Mohists of the Far West. Even any Mohist can study. You are very lucky. At present, the Mohists of the Tang Dynasty control the most advanced ink technology in the world, and the Tang Dynasty is the winning party.


    Suppose that one day, foreign ink skills surpass Datang, and countless fleets float from thousands of miles of sea and aim at Datang with weapons more advanced than gunpowder. At that time, when Datang is the loser, you will be like this. "


    Merton''s rhetorical question immediately made everyone silent. They kept accusing Mohist Zi of using ink technology to encourage war and using ink technology war to catalyze ink technology, but they didn''t expect that they had always enjoyed the benefits of relying on ink technology to win the war. They needed Mohist to rely on Mohist, but they turned to scold Mohist. It was like taking up a bowl to eat meat and leaving their chopsticks to scold their mother.


    "Datang must master the most advanced ink skills and use these ink skills to ensure that Datang''s troops have an absolute advantage. This is the responsibility of the Mohist school. If one day, our officers and soldiers rush to the enemy with simple weapons and fight with flesh and blood, it is not the fault of the Mohist school, but the dereliction of duty of our Mohist school. Therefore, we, Datang, can not use weapons such as gunpowder weapons Yes, but definitely not without it. "


    Across the ink magazine, everyone can feel the roar of Mohist Zi. For a moment, everyone in front of the ink magazine was silent. Mohist Zi''s belligerent crime is not only fighting for Mohist, but also fighting for them.

 Chapter 1205

    "Mohism!"


    Almost everyone was silent when they saw the articles in Mohist magazine. The refutation of Mohist Zi for the crime of belligerence made everyone think. The reason why they can feel the peace of the years is that there are a group of people retrograde in the dark, and Mohist is this group of people.


    "Sophistry is simply confusing black and white. The Mohists took part in the war too much, made countless killing tools, and led to blood cases. They were brought by the Mohists." in the Confucian journal, the editor in chief Ma photographed the ink Journal on the table and smiled angrily.


    In his opinion, if you want to educate the people, you must have a benevolent government, but the Mohist school helped the tyrants and collaborated with the strategists, one by one with weapons, in an attempt to subdue the world by force, which is simply perverse.


    "However, when applied to military ink technology, it can also be applied to civil use and benefit all the people. On the 21st of the twelfth lunar month, the ink technology exhibition of the 14th year of Zhenguan welcomes you to come and enjoy the wonderful military ink technology together. The Mohist military ink technology is not only a killing technology, but also can benefit all the people."


    No one expected that at the end of the ink magazine, the ink family even made a wave of advertisements for the upcoming ink technology exhibition.


    "Ink technology exhibition!"


    "Mohists are so brave that they want to disclose their military ink skills!"


    Almost everyone was startled. No one thought that the general of the Mo family should apply ink technology to civilian use. It would be great if other countries learned about the most advanced military ink technology of the Tang Dynasty.


    Many people''s minds are extremely complex. They just stand at the commanding height of morality and accuse the Mohists of making military ink technology and killing countless people. In the twinkling of an eye, they worry that the leakage of military ink technology will endanger the Tang Dynasty. They are quite a bitch. They want to set up a memorial archway again.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "It''s nonsense. You just want to prove that your Mohist ink technique is not only a killing technique, but also a military ink technique!"


    In the legislative palace, Li Shimin was also startled by the article in the ink magazine. He quickly summoned Merton and scolded him.


    The empress changsun and Princess Changle could not help smiling. This scene was not strange. It was almost the only way for them to communicate with their son-in-law.


    After all, Changle stood on Merton''s side and said, "father, it''s not that Confucian journals deceive people too much and openly question Mohism. Even most ordinary people are anti war and slander Mohism. Doesn''t Merton want to prove his innocence?"


    "If he proves his innocence, he dares to disclose his military ink skills!" Li Shimin laughed angrily.


    Merton quickly explained: "of course, it will not be the disclosure of military ink technology. It is just a derivative of military ink technology. It will not involve leakage of secrets, and it has no lethality of military ink technology. On the contrary, it will be of great use to people''s livelihood."


    "Derivatives!" Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton nodded and said, "take gunpowder weapons as an example. If you want to detonate, you must ignite them. Before, in Gaochang, the climate was dry. However, if you fight in a humid and rainy place, what should you do once the fire is extinguished or wet? I''m afraid the most powerful weapon of Datang will become a decoration immediately."


    "This......" Li Shimin immediately frowned. The biggest enemy of gunpowder weapons is humidity. Once it rains, failure to ignite will only lose its power. Fire folding is indeed a hidden danger.


    "Therefore, gunpowder weapons need a fire flap that can be ignited at any time to ensure that gunpowder can be ignited under any circumstances. Therefore, after research, Mojia village has made a ignition machine that can ignite anytime and anywhere." Merton proudly took out a palm sized square object from his arms and put it in front of Li Shimin.


    "Fire machine!" Li Shimin was stunned. He didn''t expect that the fire folding can also be made into a machine.


    Merton smiled, put the ignition machine in his hand, gently pushed it, click! The ignition machine made a clear sound, and the thumb gently pulled the gear, which was like the impact of a flint. A bunch of sparks burst out at the gear, ignited a cotton thread in front, and a bunch of flames appeared in the legislative palace.


    "So fast!" Li Shimin was surprised.


    Empress changsun and Princess Changle didn''t feel anything. However, Li Shimin had experienced war and knew how troublesome it was to use flint or fire folding, and the ignition machine made by Mozi ignited flames at once, just like an oil lamp.


    "This is made from the three in one principle of oil lamp flint and fire folding. The Mohist found that the just extinguished oil lamp only needs a spark to ignite. The Mohist placed fuel under the ignition machine, with a lead on the top and a flint on the side. At the same time, it can be carried around like a fire folding." Merton said proudly.


    "Not only that, but also safer!"


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. The reason why the firecracker can ignite is that the spark inside is not extinguished. The soldiers carrying the firecracker and the soldiers carrying gunpowder are usually separated. As a result, it is inconvenient to fight, but the fire machine perfectly solves this problem. It is time to start a fire and close the cover when it is not needed, The flame will be extinguished due to lack of oxygen. At the same time, it can keep it dry. Next time, it can also easily ignite the flame. Soldiers can carry fire folds and gunpowder weapons at the same time, which can be said to be convenient and safe.


    "And the lighter is not only safe, but also reliable. Unless the cover is closed, it will never go out at other times." Merton said, and his hands are not idle. He picked up the lighter and ignited it. As soon as his fingers picked it up, the lighter flew with flame at his fingertips, which was very dazzling.


    Princess Changle on one side immediately showed her worship eyes and looked obsessed at the handsome Merton.


    "Hum!"


    Li Shimin looked at the look of Princess Changle. It was once the look in his eyes. He couldn''t help but feel a pain in his heart and snort.


    Merton immediately smiled awkwardly, his fingers paused, the ignition machine was in his hand, and the flame was still not extinguished.


    "Your Highness the king of Jin, this lighter is for you! It''s used by Wei Chen to ignite the gunpowder when Gaochang broke the city. It''s very commemorative." Merton shook his hand, clicked, closed the lid of the lighter and gave it to Li Zhi, who was already greedy.


    "Thank you, brother-in-law!" Li Zhi was overjoyed when he heard the speech. If it was an ordinary lighter, he only regarded it as a fun toy. If he had the experience of breaking the city with one blow, it would have a different meaning.


    Li Shimin watched as such a meaningful ignition machine was put away by his son. He couldn''t help but feel sour, but he couldn''t compete with his son for face.


    "A single lighter is the civilian use of your military ink technology?" Li Shimin doubted that Merton was intentional and his eyes were not good.


    Merton shook his head and said, "at present, the output of the ignition machine is not much. At present, it is only for the military. There is something else for the civilian use of military ink technology, as Weichen said. At that time, I promise not to disappoint the emperor."


    "OK! I''ll wait." Li Shimin looked at the Mo family who was still selling off and said with hatred.

 Chapter 1206

    "This is the card of Mohist school!"


    In the firearm army, Chang sun Chong played with a beautifully made lighter in his hand, and couldn''t help showing a sneer.


    This time, the firearms supervisor did not embarrass the firearms army, but distributed the gunpowder weapons on the list on time and in quantity, and the new ignition machine is this batch of new equipment.


    "This is the important place of the gunpowder warehouse. General Chang sun should not play with fire easily, otherwise he will violate the gunpowder management regulations and the lower officials will report it truthfully." Xue Rengui, who is responsible for escorting gunpowder weapons, said solemnly.


    "Xue Rengui, do you know who you''re talking to?" Sun Wu asked with a dogleg look on his face.


    Xue Rengui said mercilessly, "no one can do it. Even your majesty should abide by the agreement in the powder magazine. This is the regulation played on the ink sacrifice and approved by your Majesty in person, and no one is exceptional."


    "You...!" sun wukai said angrily.


    The eldest sun Chong looked calm, waved his hand and said, "I will abide by the regulations approved by your majesty."


    "General Chang sun is really strict with himself and abides by military discipline." sun wukai flattered.


    Xue Rengui took a swipe at the corner of his mouth. Sun wukai was at least a general. He was ashamed to face Chang sun Chong so lowly. Even for his old brothers, he followed such an embroidered pillow. Although the firearms supervisor expanded his army by 3000, he was definitely the backbone and still the 800 firearms soldiers who survived the western expedition.


    "Since the weapons of the firearm army have been counted and confirmed to be correct, the firearm supervisor will leave now. Ten days later, the firearm supervisor will check the inventory of gunpowder and weapons again." Xue Rengui didn''t want to see Sun Wu open his ugly face, so he quickly handed it over and left.


    "A small man is successful. He must think that general changsun abandoned him, which is why he deliberately retaliated." after Xue Rengui left, Sun Wu provoked discord.


    Chang sun Chong''s face was gloomy. He didn''t pay attention to Xue Rengui. What really worried him was that the Mexican family even intervened in firearms and military objects through the regulations on the confidentiality of gunpowder. In the future, as long as the firearm army used gunpowder, it couldn''t hide it from the Mexican family. However, the weapon of the firearm army was gunpowder. It can be said that his every move was under the eyes of the Mexican family, This made the proud eldest grandson rush like a thorn in the back.


    "If you want to get involved in the firearm army, you''d better pass the crime of belligerence first. I''d like to see how you can fool the public with these killing skills!" the eldest sun snorted coldly.


    In his opinion, most of the weapons produced by the firearms prison are very dangerous things. The power of each weapon scares him. If they are easily civilian, I''m afraid they will only cause great trouble. In order to get rid of the crime, Mohist Zi made a bad move.


    It''s not just that Chang sun Chong is paying attention to the civilian use of Mohist military ink technology. Almost everyone is looking forward to it. All along, the military ink technology of Datang is extremely mysterious. Anyone who has seen them is dead. Ordinary people don''t have this treatment.


    This period of ink technology exhibition is the closest they have to military ink technology. It is even more exciting for the people at the bottom. They don''t want to miss this rare opportunity.


    If they want to watch military ink technology closely, they only need an invitation to the ink technology exhibition. For a moment, the invitation to the ink technology exhibition has become a hard to find item in Chang''an city.


    This is not to say that the invitation letter of the ink technology exhibition is expensive. On the contrary, the invitation letter of the ink technology exhibition is not received at all. All the invitations are sent out. The most loyal users of the ink magazine who have subscribed for a long time, but it was originally limited to Chang''an city. Later, loyal users from other parts of the country put forward their opinions, began to draw them all over the country, and promised to provide round-trip tickets and accommodation. In this way, It is much more difficult to get the invitation letter of ink technology exhibition.


    There is also a famous craftsman in the Tang Dynasty who can get an invitation to the ink technology exhibition, which means that he has been indirectly recognized by the Mohists. Naturally, he has great face.


    The last one is sent by Mohist friendship. Among the dignitaries, relatives and friends in Chang''an City, there are usually only these three modes. It is very difficult for ordinary people to get it.


    "Elder martial sister Wu? Can you please do me a favor!" Di Renjie asked carefully.


    Wu Mei Niang raised her eyebrows and said with a sneer, "it is said that Lord Di is ruthless and never bend the law for personal gain. Is it because the sun came out in the West today and asked for help?"


    Di Renjie''s face turned red when he heard Wu Meiniang''s irony. He could no longer say what he wanted to ask.


    "Take it! It''s your reward for helping me study contradictions! It doesn''t violate your di Qingtian''s principle!" Wu Meiniang stretched out her hand and put an invitation to the ink technology exhibition in front of Di Renjie.


    "It''s almost the same, but that''s not what I just wanted to say!" said Di Renjie proudly.


    Wu Mei Niang smiled cunningly and said, "Oh! I guessed wrong about that feeling, so forget it."


    "No, no! I''d better make do with it!" Di Renjie quickly stuffed the invitation into his arms. He had just arrived in Chang''an City, but he had long been fascinated by the ink technology exhibition.


    Wu Mei Niang tut tut said strangely, "she said no, but her body is still very honest. As expected, a man is a contradictory creature."


    Di Renjie''s face turned red. He didn''t expect that he had become the object of Wu Meiniang''s research on contradictions. However, for the sake of the invitation to the ink technology exhibition, he was wise not to quarrel with Wu Meiniang.


    More than that, di Renjie was eager to get the invitation letter of the ink technology exhibition. Almost everyone who got the invitation letter counted the days and rushed to Chang''an city. As the day of the ink technology exhibition was getting closer and closer, more and more carriages came to the ink technology exhibition.


    For ordinary people, it''s enough to boast about a lifetime''s experience if they have participated in the ink technology exhibition. For craftsmen, the ink technology exhibition is a big platform for their exchange and discussion in the industry. Every time they come to visit the ink technology exhibition, the craftsmen have benefited a lot, and their vision and skills have greatly increased.


    Even some businessmen who have not been invited have come uninvited. A large number of business opportunities will emerge in each ink technology exhibition, not to mention the civilian use of advanced military ink technology. I''m afraid there will be a lot of business opportunities.


    "Squeak!"


    A carriage stopped at the west gate of Chang''an city. Village head Ma jumped down and looked at the towering wall of Chang''an city. He was excited for a moment.


    He didn''t expect that he would come to Chang''an City in his lifetime and get the opportunity to see the ink technology exhibition. All these changes came from the snow night when the ink family came through Majia village.


    Today, Majia village has received a large number of military orders, specializing in the production of a large number of mohou hats for the military. At the same time, in the civil ranks, thanks to the guidance of mohaizi, the mohou hats in Majia village have a variety of styles, are extremely beautiful, and also sell well in the Tang Dynasty.


    In particular, Majia village is booming with the help of Gaochang textile secret technology. The originally poor Majia village has instantly become the richest village in a hundred miles. It is simply another replica of Mojia village and a pearl of Longhai line.


    This time he came not only for the exhibition of Mohist skills, but also for Mohist Zi to prove the correctness of the road of Mohist village.

 Chapter 1207

    "Whoa!"


    Carriages and carriages stopped steadily outside Chang''an city. With the beginning of ink technology exhibition approaching, more and more people rushed to Chang''an city.


    "This time, general mojiazi''s civilian use of ink technology will certainly open our eyes!" on the carriage, a craftsman stepped out of the carriage and said excitedly. Ordinary people have always been exposed to civil technology. They can''t hope for more cutting-edge military technology. Naturally, they are curious about it.


    "Of course! Moreover, military ink technology has never been made public. Even a little exposure is enough for us to use for life." the craftsmen in the same industry said excitedly that the emergence of military ink technology is not only advanced technology, but also special materials and inspiration, which is an irresistible temptation for craftsmen.


    "In fact, in addition to the ink exhibition, what I want to see is the Weishui bridge, which is the masterpiece that every craftsman dreams of." the third craftsman followed.


    All the craftsmen nodded one after another. The Weishui bridge has been widely publicized by Confucianism and ink magazines. Such a huge project can be said to be a miracle in the industry. This is the achievement that every craftsman is eager to achieve.


    These craftsmen were invited from Mojia village. Many people had the same interests and agreed to visit Weishui bridge together.


    "Cut! What''s good about Weishui bridge? What I really care about is that there are new goods in this ink technology exhibition." a businessman said bitterly when he heard the craftsman''s comments.


    Craftsmen value technology and businessmen value profits. These businessmen did not get the invitation of the ink technology exhibition, but came uninvited for only one purpose, that is, they want to obtain the latest goods of the ink technology exhibition.


    After years of development, the ink technology exhibition is no longer just a place to watch the excitement, but more like a trade fair. There are the most cutting-edge ink technology of the Tang Dynasty and countless business opportunities. For a moment, many people rushed to Chang''an city whether they were invited to participate in the ink technology exhibition or not.


    Most of the people who come to visit the ink technology exhibition are divided into three categories: ordinary people, craftsmen and businessmen. All three parties are looking forward to the arrival of the ink technology exhibition.


    In the long cry, the 21st of the twelfth lunar month finally came and the ink technology exhibition officially began.


    "Welcome to the ink exhibition again!" almost everyone cheered when Merton''s familiar voice appeared in the center of the ink exhibition again.


    After so many consecutive ink art exhibitions, the reputation of Mohist school can be said to be famous in the Tang Dynasty, and each ink Art Exhibition hosted by Mohist school is wonderful. Although Mohist school has been dormant for three years, it is the same wonderful hosted by Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of Mohist school, but people are more willing to see Mohist school standing on the stage. Such ink art exhibition is original.


    The Confucianists saw that mojiazi was so famous that they couldn''t help but sink. They had to say that the growth of mojiazi can''t be ignored by everyone.


    Merton was flattered and waved. After a long time, the people calmed down.


    Merton was moved and said, "thanks for your love, Mo is very grateful. Only better ink skills can be used to repay you. This ink technology exhibition will certainly not disappoint you."


    The crowd immediately applauded warmly and rested for a long time.


    "The civilian use of military ink technology has a long history, and many of them are dual-use items. Take the most common stirrup as an example. The stirrup was originally used to March and fight, so that the cavalry could better bow on the horse. Therefore, the stirrup came into being. Later, the stirrup was widely spread and became the standard matching of horses." Merton began.


    The crowd nodded one after another. It was the invention of the stirrup that opened the gap between the Han cavalry and the nomadic cavalry.


    "There are winter hats that are very similar to stirrups! I think many people have worn winter hats at the scene." Merton smiled, pointing to the audience with winter hats.


    "Mohou hat!" everyone thought that the winter hat was mohou hat, which was created by the MOH family when they passed Majia village on their way to Gaochang last year. Its purpose was really for the military. It was very cold on the 21st of December. Looking around, I found that many people around had worn mohou hats.


    The head of Ma Village in the crowd did not show a proud look. After a year of communication, mohou hats have been everywhere in the street. Mohou hats are so popular that it has something to do with Majia village.


    "Dual use for military and civil use!" although they heard the words of Mohist, they nodded silently. Sometimes, many ink skills are dual-use for military and civil use.


    Merton Lang: "Many ink skills for both military and civilian use are mostly found in the army. The environment in which the army is in is more extreme. These ink skills are urgently needed to reverse the situation. A stirrup is not inferior to the Han cavalry. A nomadic cavalry who grew up on horseback since childhood. An ink Marquis hat can make the military lieutenant general not afraid of the bitter cold in the north. Keeping out the cold is more adaptable than the fur clothes of the nomads in the north In cold weather, this is the role of ink technology. "


    In the box, Li Shimin''s face sank. If there had been an mohou hat and an army coat, he wouldn''t have lost so many soldiers because of the cold when the Tang Dynasty invaded the East Turks.


    "Of course, both stirrup and mohou hat are the ink skills that have appeared before. It''s hard for mohou to fool everyone with these two distances. Therefore, mohou specially designed a dual-use ink technology for both military and civil use to make a fool of everyone." Merton Lang said.


    Everyone was awestruck and immediately solemnly got up. They didn''t want to miss any moment.


    However, Merton didn''t make any movement in his hand, but turned to the people: "it''s a cold winter and the weather is cold. Therefore, the ink technology exhibition has specially paved the cushions for your seats, and the cushions behind you contain the ink technology that Mo said."


    Everyone was surprised. They picked up the cushion behind them and frowned. They saw that the cushion was flat and nothing special.


    "Eh! It can be opened here!"


    Suddenly, village head Ma startled. He specialized in textiles. He was the most sensitive and took the lead in discovering the secret of the cushion. He saw a metal sheet in one corner of the cushion, and gently pulled it to expose the cotton in the cushion.


    "What is this?"


    Others were also surprised that the metal sheet could easily pull the metal hooks on both sides, and after closing, these metal hooks were tightly fastened together, which was almost airtight.


    "Is this a new button?" one of the audience hesitated.


    "No, it''s more advanced and convenient than buttons." village head Ma gently pulled the metal sheet back and forth and shook his head.


    "This is a zipper specially developed by Mo for cavalry to keep out the cold!" said Merton Lang.


    "Can this thing keep out the cold?" the people were puzzled. They didn''t think it was a thing to keep out the cold.


    Merton smiled proudly and said, "don''t look at it. It''s only used on the cushion, but it can also be used on clothes. Similarly, our clothes use buttons, but if the buttons are loose, there will be air leakage everywhere. Especially when the cavalry galloped, they will soon be cold and trembling."


    Many people nodded with lingering fear, not only cavalry, but also ordinary people riding. The cold wind poured straight into their neck, from the gap of buttons and from the cuffs.


    "However, clothes with zippers can be pulled up tightly without the slightest wind blowing in, so they can keep warm. Moreover, they are easy to wear and take off, which is more convenient for cavalry marching and fighting. Moreover, for civil use, they can save a front and more cloth and cotton. Both military and civil use are suitable," Merton said, Pick up an ink suit with zipper, put it on your body, reach out and pull the zipper up.


    He believed that the emergence of zipper would change the clothes of Datang, and ink clothes with zipper would be popular throughout Datang. Confucianism severely put him together this time. This time, he would completely lose the advantage of Confucian clothes with zipper, and ink clothes would completely occupy the mainstream of Datang life.


    Mohist clothing is better than Confucian clothing. This will be the first time that Mohism has comprehensively suppressed Confucianism in other fields.

 Chapter 1208

    The audience did not realize the revolutionary change of zipper to the garment industry. They just regarded it as a novel invention. On the contrary, they were lack of interest. Until the benefits of zipper were fully demonstrated, people realized how wise the Mohist School invented zipper.


    Seeing the lack of interest, Merton naturally understood what people thought. He couldn''t help laughing and continued: "in addition to the dual-use ink technology, there are some failed military ink technologies. Although these failed ink technologies have no practical use, they can shine in civilian use."


    "Failed military ink technique!" the people were stunned. They didn''t expect that the failed military ink technique would be useful.


    Merton said proudly, "as we all know, steel is the pillar of military. No matter weapons or armor are inseparable from steel, but all steel has a fatal defect."


    "Rust!"


    Under the stand, Gongshu Hong secretly said in his heart that Gongshu family, as a hundred families as famous as Mohism, also deeply studied iron and steel. Naturally, I know that the most fatal disadvantage of iron and steel is rust. Even the sharp blade of divine soldiers will rust and become a pile of ordinary iron as long as it takes a long time.


    "Yes, it''s rust. Steel is rusting almost all the time. If it can be prevented or delayed, Datang can save at least one iron mine every year," Merton said.


    "Stop the steel from rusting! Has the Mo family found a way to solve the steel rusting?" Gongshu Hong moved in his heart and said with a little excitement.


    Many craftsmen are also short of breath. Steel is not only the pillar of military, but also the food of industry. No matter which craftsman is inseparable from iron, and iron rust is very troublesome, and there are many hidden dangers. If we can find a way to solve steel rust, it will be no less than a great blessing to the industry.


    "There are many common methods to prevent rust. For example, oilcloth is usually used to maintain weapons in the army, while paint is used to paint among the people. Although it can prevent rust, it takes labor and materials, and the gain is often not worth the loss. More is the method to allow steel to rust and corrode. If there is rust, it will directly polish it off, which will waste iron materials." Merton said with a little pain.


    Among the people in Xiangfu''s line, Li Yun nodded slightly. In order to be responsible for the Weishui bridge, it is a steel structure. The exposed steel anti rust works use paint. The cost is extremely amazing, and he has to guarantee it every year.


    "At the invitation of the Ministry of war, Mojia village once developed steel for the Ministry of war to make sharper weapons and harder armor. In this process, Mojia experienced countless failures. After repeated failures, unqualified steel was abandoned and piled up in the warehouse.


    Once, however, a Mohist boy found a shiny steel after nearly a year in a pile of rusty steel while cleaning up these failed steel, which is stainless steel! "Merton said proudly.


    "Stainless steel?" there was an uproar. Stainless steel, as its name suggests, is stainless steel. No one thought that the problem that has plagued the industry for thousands of years had been inadvertently solved by the Mohists.


    "Stainless steel does not rust in the air and water, and is not even afraid of acid, alkali and salt. Although the toughness and hardness of stainless steel can not meet military standards, stainless steel is more than enough for civil use." Merton smiled knowingly.


    "The Mohist school is so lucky!" the public loser was jealous. Such treasures were picked up by the Mohist son from the garbage. He could calculate how valuable stainless steel is with his toes.


    "The most commonly used ironware among the people is nothing but knives, spoons and pots. These kitchen utensils and knives often need to be stained with water. The most troublesome thing is rust. However, once stainless steel is used to make tableware, it can not only solve the problem of rust, but also be hygienic and beautiful." Merton said and waved his hand. A teenager laboriously pushed a large box to Merton.


    "Who is this young man?" people were surprised. Most of the people who could come to the ink art exhibition and get on the stage were important people of the Mohist school, but they had not seen this young man.


    "Could it be that he is the new disciple of the Mohist school?" Gongshu Hong frowned, and the Mohist school was at its zenith, and although Wu Meiniang, the next generation of the Mohist school, was a woman who pushed down on the young talents of Chang''an, fortunately, Gongshu Hao, the next generation of the public loser, was not much weaker. Now if the Mohist school accepts another amazing male disciple, the pressure on the public loser will immediately double.


    The public loser Hao shook his head and said, "this child knows that he is not a descendant of Mohism, but a descendant of legalism called by Mohism, di Renjie!"


    "Di Renjie, the son of Legalists!"


    Gongshu Hong breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was not dignified at all. It is conceivable that he must be extraordinary if he can get such attention from the Mohist school.


    While Di Renjie in the stand enjoyed the attention of the public, and his legs trembled. He knew that Wu Meiniang had no such kindness to let him go. Although she gave him tickets, she assigned him the task of going on stage. At this time, di Renjie could not stand such a battle, so he had to put his head on it.


    "Pots, bowls, ladles, basins, spoons and knives!" as the stainless steel tableware was taken out, people''s eyes gradually became dignified. Although these are insignificant things, these stainless steel tableware are necessities for every family. There are millions of families in Datang. What a huge number it will be.


    "These stainless steel tableware are not rusty with water, not damaged on the ground, clean, tidy and beautiful." Merton stretched out his hand and handed out stacks of stainless steel tableware to the audience.


    People looked at the stainless steel tableware in their hands and were not attracted by it. In the eyes of craftsmen, it was the most perfect tableware. It not only had the beauty of porcelain tableware, but also solved the fragile disadvantage of porcelain tableware.


    The businessmen present were even more excited. Once such perfect stainless steel tableware was launched, it would certainly become the best-selling commodity of Datang. How much profit it had, everyone immediately felt that it was a worthwhile trip.


    However, the shock did not end. Merton pointed to the ink technology exhibition and said proudly: "when you came, I don''t know if you found that the handrails and railings of the whole ink technology exhibition are all made of metal, which are made of stainless steel."


    "Ah!"


    People suddenly woke up. It turned out that the ink technology exhibition had quietly applied stainless steel, but they didn''t realize it in their eyes.


    "However, this is only the beginning. As soon as stainless steel comes out, unless it is of special use, at least 80% of the ironware used by the people of the Tang Dynasty will use stainless steel in the future. The era of pig iron has passed. The future steel market will be the era of stainless steel." Merton said.


    "The era of stainless steel!"


    They could not help sighing. They understood in their hearts that what Merton said was the truth. No one thought that a failed military ink technology would be so valuable.

 Chapter 1209

    Next, the mojiazi demonstrated several failed military ink techniques, each of which opened the eyes of craftsmen and benefited a lot, while businessmen were even more excited. These failed military ink techniques are very practical for civil use. Once mass production, they will certainly sell well in the Tang Dynasty.


    "In addition to the failed military ink technology that can be used for civilian use, there is another military ink technology that can be used for civilian use, that is, the weakened version of military ink technology." Merton said lightly, but it was like a grenade thrown into the venue, causing an uproar.


    "The weakened version of military ink technology is not military ink technology!" everyone couldn''t help but for a while. No one thought that the ink family really dared to make military ink technology public. Both the military dual-use ink technology and the failed military ink technology have no lethality, while the weakened version of military ink technology is not. Although it is a weakened version, it is a real military ink technology and a real killing technology.


    Merton didn''t seem to see the shocked faces of the people, but continued: "the most powerful military ink technology is gunpowder."


    "Gunpowder!"


    Everyone knew the importance of gunpowder. Since the Mohist School destroyed the city in Gaochang, gunpowder has become the first of hundreds of soldiers, and its power is well known all over the world.


    "Isn''t it...?" the people in the ink technology exhibition ignored it, and an incredible idea suddenly appeared in their hearts. Is it that the so-called weakened version of military ink technology in the mouth of Mohists is gunpowder.


    "The boy''s ink technique at the bottom of the box can''t be a lighter!" Li Shimin smiled knowingly, thinking that he guessed Merton''s card was the lighter he showed him.


    However, the next scene made him sweat. Merton continued: "enough gunpowder can break the city, and what''s the use of a little gunpowder?"


    "Hiss!"


    Everyone took a breath, and his hair stood up. He couldn''t believe it. No one could believe that the Mexican family really weakened the gunpowder.


    "This boy is bold!" in the box, Li Shimin was furious. Because of gunpowder, the Mo family has been assassinated twice in a row. Doesn''t he know the importance of gunpowder? He dares to open gunpowder! "


    However, out of his trust in Merton, he still forced himself to bear his body shape and wanted to see how Mohist Zi used the weakened version of gunpowder.


    "Tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder is enough to break the city in one stroke, and what''s the use of a penny of gunpowder?" Merton asked.


    Everyone laughed. If it was tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder, they must be on pins and needles, but I''m afraid a penny of gunpowder can only let him see sparks, which has no lethality at all.


    Under the attention of the public, Merton reached out and Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, came to the stage and presented a palm sized carton with one hand.


    Di Renjie on the side couldn''t help but draw from the corners of his mouth. He just carried a heavy stainless steel onto the stage and was as tired as a dead dog, while Wu Meiniang was holding a light cardboard box. He was sure that Wu Meiniang was trapped again.


    Merton took the carton, moved his thumb gently, pushed out a paper drawer, took out a small wooden stick and made a slight stroke. Suddenly, a bright flame was reflected in the eyes of everyone.


    A little gunpowder was quickly ignited, and then the small wooden stick was ignited. After a few seconds, the flame went out.


    "That''s it..." everyone was stunned. I''m afraid even children are not afraid of the power of this little flame.


    "No, it can''t be so simple!"


    Everyone frowned. They didn''t believe that the ink technique of pressing the bottom of the box was so simple.


    As mojiazi continued to repeat his previous actions, small wooden sticks were lit and extinguished. Unexpectedly, there was only a little power of fire.


    "This is fire!" suddenly, he was surprised.


    "Kindling!" they suddenly realized, and their eyes lit up.


    The trouble of ordinary people making a fire goes without saying, and it is often extinguished. Usually, it is not easy for a family to raise a fire, and others come to light a fire one after another.


    The MOH family had a whim that they should use extremely flammable gunpowder as a fire. It is extremely convenient to cause a fire with a gentle wipe. If this method is popularized, it will certainly benefit thousands of people.


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, this is the fire. Mo uses a small firewood and is contaminated with a little gunpowder. Therefore, he is called a match. He can make a fire with only one touch. It is simple and easy to use. In the future, people all over the world will have no difficulty in making a fire."


    With Merton''s gesture, one by one, the children of the Mohists distributed a box of matches to all the audience attending the ink technology exhibition. At present, many people imitated Merton''s behavior and easily ignited a match.


    "It''s so convenient!"


    People looked at the flame that easily appeared in front of them and felt the warmth brought by the flame. A trace of surprise was revealed in everyone''s eyes. In the Tang Dynasty, from top officials and nobles to ordinary people, ignition at night was nothing more than a fire fold and sickle. Ignition was very difficult, which was a problem in the world.


    The appearance of matches can be said to be a great convenience for people''s life. No one thought that gunpowder, which is powerful in military, would shine equally in civil use and benefit the world.


    Li Shimin looked at the extinguished match in his hand, and a tangled color appeared on his face. On the one hand, it was the gunpowder that shocked the world, on the other hand, it was the matches that benefited the world, which made him very tangled. Weapons and people''s livelihood can''t have both!


    "Don''t worry, your majesty. The match gunpowder made by mohou is different from the gunpowder in the army. If someone really uses match gunpowder as military gunpowder, I''m afraid it will only go astray." Bingjing Si Deng said respectfully in the box.


    He often knew the composition of gunpowder in the firearms prison. This gunpowder is not the same gunpowder. The MOH family just borrowed the characteristics of gunpowder to search for combustibles to make match gunpowder. What has been weakened can no longer be weakened. Although the match gunpowder of mojiazi is also flammable, its composition is very different. It has no power of gunpowder, and it is very easy to cause accidents. It can be used for ignition. It is wishful thinking to use it to crack gunpowder.


    "This boy! He bluffed me." Li Shimin said with gnashing teeth. He didn''t expect that mojiazi would continuously make two kinds of fire taking tools, one is a lighter and the other is a match. Now the lighter is expensive and the output is scarce, and the match is only a small wooden stick and a little gunpowder. Although it is not easy to use and waterproof without a lighter, it is enough for ordinary people to ignite.


    The invited merchants were excited. Everyone in the world needs kindling. The emergence of matches has become a necessary thing for people all over the world. The business opportunities are self-evident. Now what they really care about is the price of matches.


    "There are 90 matches in a box, which is enough for a family to use for one month. Ten boxes of matches are a pack, and one pack of matches is a Kaiyuan Tongbao." Merton said the price gently, and the whole audience was in an uproar.


    Matches are so cheap that a penny''s worth of matches can be used for half a year. I''m afraid that once the matches are out, the commonly used fire folds and sickles on the market are destined to be eliminated.


    "As soon as the match comes out, the fire will surely spread all over the world, and there will be no bitterness and cold in the Tang Dynasty." a scholar said excitedly.


    "Gunpowder, matches!"


    Many people''s minds are hard to understand. They don''t have gunpowder for killing. They can be improved to bring warmth to the people all over the world.


    "Military ink technology is not only a killing technology, but also can benefit all the people in the world. Mo once again promised that the military ink technology developed by the Mohists is used to guard the Tang Dynasty and benefit the world in the future." Merton said proudly.


    This time, no one questioned the Mohist school. Merton has conquered all the audience with military ink techniques that benefit the people all over the world.


    "May the world not attack!"


    Merton sighed and bowed around to officially end the ink exhibition.

 Chapter 1210

    "May the world not attack!"


    After the ink art exhibition, everyone couldn''t calm down for a long time. Before that, the world recognized that military ink technology was a killing technology, and everything served the war. This ink art exhibition once again subverted everyone''s three views.


    Military ink technology is not only a killing technology, but also a civilian ink technology that benefits the people all over the world. For a while, people can no longer stand at the commanding height of morality to criticize the Mohist''s research and development of military ink technology.


    Because these military ink technologies are the most advanced ink technologies, even if a little leakage from the fingers is enough, the benefits of civil ink technology are infinite.


    "Zipper, stainless steel! Matches!"


    Out of the venue of the ink technology exhibition, there was the exhibition booth of the latest ink technology of Mohism, the latest style of ink clothes with zippers, shiny stainless steel tableware, and a packet of matches for a penny, which immediately caused people''s crazy robbery. Fortunately, Mohist village had been prepared for it, which was sufficient supply.


    "A pack of matches for a penny! I didn''t expect that Tangtang Mojia village would produce such cheap products." in the box of the ink technology exhibition, Li Shimin sneered at the crazy rush of people.


    One side of Merton was embarrassed and said with a smile: "Your Majesty misunderstood the Mohist village. Matches are things that benefit the people. Naturally, they can''t be sold at a high price. The Mohist village can keep its principal!"


    Match is the best example of Mohist school to prove military ink technology and civilian use. Naturally, it should be mainly cheap and affordable. Mohist School naturally wants to promote it all over the world at the most favorable price.


    Li Shimin thought of the lighter that Merton showed in front of him. He knew that the Mohist village guaranteed the principal on the match and must want to make money on the lighter to make up for it.


    Li Shimin took out a match, lit it gently, smelled the familiar smell of gunpowder, and asked again, "match gunpowder really won''t reveal the gunpowder formula."


    Merton said confidently, "don''t worry, your majesty. The main feature of match gunpowder is flammability. The main component used is phosphorus. It''s impossible to make gunpowder. Ministers are deliberately describing match gunpowder as a weakened version of gunpowder. The main purpose is to take the opportunity to lead some spies from other countries to spy on the secret recipe of gunpowder in the Tang Dynasty."


    "I see. I said gunpowder could not be used for civilian use." Li Shimin said with confidence.


    Merton felt guilty and said, "it''s not impossible."


    "Can it really be used for civilian use?" Li Shimin was surprised. He couldn''t believe it. Looking at Merton, the biggest effect of gunpowder is lethality. How can it be used for civilian use.


    Merton nodded and said, "Your Majesty knows the story of Yugong moving the mountain."


    "Yugong moves mountains!" Li Shimin''s heart moved. Yugong moves mountains. No one knows. In particular, Yugong''s spirit inspires generations after generations.


    Merton sighed: "there are too many mountains similar to the king''s house Taihang in the world, and many people have difficulty in traveling. Now Datang can build a bridge and solve the problem of rivers blocking traffic. I think it''s time to solve the problem of mountains blocking traffic. Gunpowder is the key thing."


    "You mean to use gunpowder to open the mountain!" Li Shimin moved in his heart.


    Merton said proudly: "As long as we have enough gunpowder, it''s not impossible to blow up the mountain! Of course, we can''t waste so much. With explosives, we can blow up rocks, open roads around the mountain along the hillside, and build bridges in low-lying areas. In fact, we can also blow up caves and dig tunnels in case of high mountains. From then on, there will be no mountains blocking traffic in the world. I''ll pay in Datang Unobstructed. "


    "This......" Li Shimin suddenly felt a wave of emotion. Peng Bai didn''t expect that gunpowder could be so effective. The mountain blocking traffic is a problem for thousands of years. Now it has been solved once. How can he not be excited.


    "How much does it cost! How do you feel that your boy has been biting me again!" Li Shimin couldn''t help looking at Merton suspiciously. Before he met Merton again, the Treasury of the Tang Dynasty was abundant. Since the emergence of Merton, although the Tang Dynasty has made rapid progress in using the ink technology of the Mohist school, the place where it spends money has doubled. Although its wealth has increased year by year, it still can''t make ends meet. If Merton now proposes to use gunpowder to open mountains and build roads, the cost is probably an astronomical figure.


    Merton was almost torn down by Li Shimin. He was guilty and hard spoken. "Opening mountains and roads is a matter of merit in the contemporary era and benefit in the future. At the beginning of that year, the emperor built the great wall and the emperor Yang of the Sui dynasty built the Grand Canal. In the end, it was not built with the strength of the whole country. Today, the Tang Dynasty still benefits a lot. The same is true for opening mountains and roads."


    Li Shimin glared and said, "what sin should you compare me to those tyrants!"


    Merton stood up and said, "although the first emperor and the Sui Yang emperor were tyrants, they were not tyrants. Of course they had, but no one denied the achievements of the great wall and the Grand Canal. Now if the whole country in the Tang Dynasty builds bridges in case of water and opens mountains in case of mountains, and makes the world unimpeded, his Majesty''s achievements must be comparable to those of the two."


    "I''m afraid the cost of opening mountains and roads is comparable to that of the great wall and the Grand Canal. You''re not afraid that I will die when I step into the Tang Dynasty and die in the Qin and Sui dynasties!" Li Shimin frowned. Naturally, no one denies the achievements of the super project. If it is well built, the national strength will double, and if it is not well built, the world will turn against me.


    "They didn''t pay attention to Mohism in the two dynasties. They didn''t have advanced ink technology as a support. They piled it all on human life, which made everyone in the world turn against it. Now, the ink technology in the Tang Dynasty is greatly promoted. Gunpowder is used as a power to pave the mountain and pave the road, coupled with various Mohist mechanical assistance. As long as your majesty is not eager for quick success and instant benefits, there will be no harm at all." Merton smiled.


    Li Shimin''s face slowed down a little. What Merton said is true. Using Mohist machinery alone is enough to surpass the power of ten people. Some heavy work can be replaced by machinery. There will not be too many people casualties at all. Naturally, there will be no huge resentment among the grain grass people in the Qin and Sui dynasties. Of course, the only disadvantage is that they spend a lot of money.


    "You really deserve the title of a black sheep. You don''t even have me. You will spend money!" Li Shimin thought of the huge money needed to open mountains and build roads. He was very self-discipline and didn''t even want to build a palace since he ascended the throne. However, the Mohist school was often tens of thousands, or even more, which was more generous than his emperor.


    When Merton heard Li Shimin''s reprimand, he didn''t care. Li Shimin just loves spending money, which shows that Li Shimin is excited, and money is the most important thing for an emperor.


    "Let''s take a break on the matter of opening the mountain with gunpowder! Take advantage of the great court meeting at the end of the year to discuss it." Li Shimin was finally persuaded. The construction of brick road made Datang see the benefits of convenient transportation, and the construction of Weishui bridge represents that Datang has found a way to conquer rivers. Now it''s time to conquer mountains.


    "Yes!" Merton said solemnly. He is the firearms supervisor, who controls the gunpowder in the world. Gunpowder must be used to open mountains and build roads. It is most appropriate for him to write a letter.


    The ink technology exhibition shows the civilian use of military ink technology only to the ordinary people. This time, he will be in the court hall to let all officials see how amazing military ink technology is as a civilian.

 Chapter 1211

    As the ink technology exhibition people left contentedly with the latest products, ink clothes with zippers, stainless steel tableware and matches were distributed throughout Chang''an City, causing waves of popularity.


    "This zipper cotton padded jacket is really beautiful!"


    "It is said that these zippers are also made of stainless steel. Even if the cotton clothes are worn out, they will rust at all!"


    "Ink clothing is cheap and the style is good-looking."


    "Even if we pull our own materials and beat cotton, I''m afraid we can save a lot of money."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    In the Mohist mechanism City, aunt Xu looked at the popular ink clothes with satisfaction. She was in the women''s wear department. Many Chang''an women had no resistance to ink clothes with good styles and low prices. They gave generously and bought their favorite clothes.


    Although most women in this era are women workers, it takes time and effort, and the style is also very old-fashioned. The large-scale production of ink clothes, the substantial reduction of fabric cost and cotton cost, coupled with the popularity of assembly lines and sewing machines, it is better for women in Chang''an city to buy a cost-effective one. Is it because this batch of ink clothes have novel ink skills such as zippers, and the sales have soared.


    "By the way, how about the sales of men''s cotton clothes?" aunt Xu suddenly turned sideways and asked the Mohist children.


    Mohist children''s face said secretly, "Madam Hui Xu, men''s cotton clothes don''t sell much. Few people buy men''s cotton clothes except some people who often ride horses."


    Aunt Xu couldn''t help sighing. Women have no resistance to good-looking clothes, and ink clothes sell a lot. However, men don''t care whether clothes are good-looking or not. In addition, most people with status wear Confucian clothes, so ink clothes are difficult in front of men''s clothes.


    "However, although the sales of men''s clothes in cotton clothes are not good, the pants with zippers are very popular!" said the children of Mohism.


    "Men''s pants!" aunt Xu was stunned. She couldn''t understand why men only like ink pants.


    Guozijian.


    A group of Guozijian students gathered together and whispered.


    "Did you buy it?"


    "Yes!"


    "And you?"


    "I bought it too!"


    With a knowing smile, all the students went to the hut together.


    Soon, almost all the Guozijian students secretly bought ink clothes and trousers, but they always wore Confucian green shirts outside.


    "Outside Confucianism and inside ink!"


    Kong Yingda frowned when he heard the report.


    Liu Yinian said indignantly, "yes, I got the news about my humble position. Most of the students in the Imperial College are wearing Confucian clothes outside, but actually they are wearing ink clothes and pants inside. The Imperial College is a holy land of Confucianism. Now even the clothes of Confucianism can''t be preserved. As a student of the Imperial College, I wear ink clothes. Isn''t it a hundred Confucianists that make me laugh."


    "Pants wear ink clothes!" Kong Yingda frowned, "have you ever found out the reason!"


    "This..." Liu Yinian was a little hard to say.


    Kong Yingda frowned and said coldly, "even the reason is unknown. How can we solve the problem."


    "I heard it''s good for going to the toilet!" said Liu Yinian with a red face.


    "Ah!"


    Kong Yingda was stunned. Soon, when an ink suit pants were placed in front of him, Kong Yingda saw the zipper in front of the pants. Only then did Kong Yingda understand what the so-called beneficial toilet means.


    "Why is this difficult?" Kong Yingda waved his big hand. "Notice that in the future, all the trousers of the Confucian clothes of the Imperial College will be changed to this, but remove the zipper and turn them into buttons."


    Liu Yinian was surprised and said: "it''s so simple. In terms of humble position, the Imperial College should not only strictly prohibit the students of the Imperial College from wearing ink clothes, but also call on the world to resist ink clothes. Otherwise, once the zipper is popularized on a large scale, ink clothes will be popular, and Confucian clothes will become unique. This is a place that Confucians must compete for, so we must pay attention to it!"


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said: "At that time, King Zhao Wuling rode and shot in Hufu, which was opposed by the world. In the end, the state of Zhao conquered all parts of the grassland with Hufu, and became a powerful country. Confucian clothes are the traditional clothes of Confucianism, but represent Confucianism. The emergence of zipper is no less than the impact of Hufu, riding and shooting on China. If we forcibly stop ink clothes, we will only become a smile like the elders who blocked Hufu''s riding and shooting Handle. "


    Kong Yingda looked very real. The role of zipper is no less than that of Hufu riding and shooting, which is destined to cause the change of Tang clothing. Even the students of the Imperial College did not resist the convenience brought by zipper, let alone ordinary people.


    If it''s a forced stop, it''s a mantis blocking the car.


    Liu Yinian frowned and said discontentedly, "is this a way to increase the prestige of Mohism and destroy the ambition of Confucianism? If Confucianism does not respond, there will be no place for Confucian clothing in time. After being a Kong saint, will the wine worship adult watch the loss of Kong saint''s dress etiquette?"


    Kong Yingda said in silence: "Kong Sheng''s dress etiquette will not be lost because of a small zipper. If the people''s choice of dress is forcibly changed for the benefit of Confucianism, it will be the greatest blasphemy to Kong Sheng''s dress etiquette."


    "After you become a Confucius saint in vain, you should sit back and watch the Mohist school become bigger and threaten the status of Confucianism. Ink clothing is only the first step. One day, the Mohist school will fully revive and surpass Confucianism. How can you face the Confucius saint in a hundred years?" Liu Yinian said angrily.


    Kong Yingda''s face changed and said, "if Kong defiled the Kong family''s reputation by despicable means for the sake of Confucian self-interest, he will have no face to his ancestors in a hundred years."


    Now that the zipper has been invented, it is futile to stop it. If he forcibly obstructs it, he can only become a clown like the nobles of Zhao who have prevented Hufu from riding and shooting in history, which will also affect the reputation of the Kong family.


    Liu Yinian left angrily. Looking back at the Imperial College, he couldn''t help humming: "you Kong Yingda cherish feathers and have gained a lot of benefits from cooperating with the Mohist school. You must be soft mouthed and short handed. Since you Kong family don''t protect the interests of Confucianism, you''re not qualified to sit in this position."


    The Kongs used the movable type printing of the Mohists to organize libraries. After the Kongs, Kong huisuo made friends with the Mohists and obtained the method of homonymy. Therefore, the Kongs'' attitude towards the Mohists can be regarded as a moderate school and advocated cooperative development with the Mohists.


    Liu Yinian is a firm radical against Mohism. At present, he thought of Ma Jiayun, a great Confucian who is more radical towards Mohism.


    That night, Liu Yinian had a private meeting with Ma Jiayun. After a night of secret conversation, they finally reached a consensus.


    "I inform your majesty that I impeach the son of the state to offer a toast. Kong Yingda''s academic misconduct,......."


    In the early days of that day, Ma Jiayun angrily wrote a letter criticizing Kong Yingda''s five classics justice for its complexity, fallacies and deficiencies. It has to be said that although Ma Jiayun''s character is not good, he is indisputable academically. In addition, when Kong Yingda was writing the five classics justice, he was a little radical under the pressure of the Mohists and was immediately seized by Ma Jiayun.


    "The minister impeached the son of the state to offer a toast to Kong Yingda''s corpse for a vegetarian meal............."


    Then Liu Yinian, the scholar doctor of the Imperial College, wrote a letter to denounce Kong Yingda''s inaction during the Imperial College''s wine offering. Some secret things in the Imperial College were also revealed. Although Kong Yingda was not at fault, as a Imperial College''s wine offering, he naturally had unshirkable responsibility.


    "Wei Chen impeached the son of the state to offer a drink to Kong Yingda, fishing for fame and reputation, and repeatedly kidnapped his Highness the prince for his reputation......"


    "The minister impeached the son of the state to offer a toast to Kong Yingda.................."


    For a moment, Kong Yingda was besieged by a group of Confucian scholars like a bereaved dog, but he was abandoned by Confucianism, which surprised everyone!

 Chapter 1212

    "Kong Aiqing, what''s your excuse!"


    Li Shimin looked at Kong Yingda strangely. After the Confucius family, he would be abandoned by Confucianism, which opened his eyes as an emperor.


    "I have nothing to say. I''m old, my eyes are dim, but I''m guilty of negligence. Please allow me to resign from the position of offering wine to the son of the state, return to my hometown, and concentrate on Revising the five classics of justice." Kong Yingda bowed down and resigned.


    As a Confucius family, he was abandoned by Confucianism and ended up like this. If he had been ridiculed by the world before, now he didn''t care about his honor or disgrace. Now the Confucius family has successors. Kong huisuo has made great achievements in homonymy and has a promising future. The Confucius family has a library and is invincible. In this way, his position of offering wine to the Imperial College is not so important.


    Moreover, he does not think that the Confucian radicals will succeed. The emergence of a new ink technology often leads to revolutionary changes. Zipper is one of them. Once Ma Jiayun and others fail, he has no chance to make a comeback. At the moment, returning to his hometown is just taking progress as retreat.


    Li Shimin repeatedly asked him to stay, but Kong Yingda had decided to go, which was worth playing.


    "I''m leaving!" Kong Yingda took off her pipe cap, showed her white hair, and turned away from the Tai Chi hall.


    A group of civil servants looked at Kong Yingda''s lonely departure and couldn''t help laughing. The Imperial College is the highest society in the world. It is an academic cow. Its status is extremely important and its influence is huge. It has always been a taboo of Confucianism. Since Kong Yingda''s body is a vegetarian meal, it will naturally be abandoned by Confucianism.


    Seeing Kong Yingda''s resignation, Liu Yinian couldn''t wait to write: "tell your majesty that the Imperial College is the place to select talents for the country, which is very important. Please appoint a new Imperial College as soon as possible."


    "Minister, etc." a group of literary ministers echoed one after another.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "you Aiqing have the right person to recommend."


    Liu Yinian said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, Lord Ma once served as a doctor of Imperial College and a doctor of Imperial College. He is familiar with the internal affairs of the Imperial College and is deeply loved by the imperial college students. He is the best candidate for the Imperial College to offer wine."


    "Ministers recommend Ma Jiayun to serve as the sacrificial wine of the Imperial College!" Yu Zhining''s clothes are indeed the beginning of civilization. Confucian clothes do have their own etiquette and significance. However, Confucianism thinks that Confucian clothes represent dressing etiquette, which is very wrong.


    "In addition to representing civilization, the most important and primitive function of dressing is to keep warm. Confucian clothes do have Chinese traditional etiquette, and the emergence of zipper makes clothes more warm, which is more in line with the original intention of dressing." Merton shook his head and refuted.


    "What the master said is that once the lock is pulled out, the people can use the least cloth to achieve the same warm effect. How much cloth can be saved." Wu Meiniang said proudly. No matter how dense the buttons are, they can''t resist the howling of the cold wind. Moreover, the more dense the buttons are, the more trouble they are. There is no convenient and fast zipper.


    "But all the scholars in the world are Confucian children. These talents are the main force to buy clothes. Now the Imperial College has come forward in person, and there are not many people in the world to buy ink clothes." aunt Xu said with an embarrassed face.


    Merton laughed and said: "Why is this difficult? For the upper class, etiquette is more important than interests, but for the lower class, it is more important than interests. Since Confucianism kidnaps the upper class to wear ink clothes with etiquette, the Mohists use interests to drive the lower class to wear ink clothes. From now on, the Mohist village has wantonly produced zippers to market the whole Tang Dynasty, and the ink clothes produced by the Mohist village are necessary Beautiful and cheap, first promote ink clothes, and then compete with Confucian clothes. "


    "Is this feasible?" Wu Mei Niang said in surprise.


    Merton confidently said: "It is well known that Hufu riding and shooting is the dress reform implemented by King Zhao Wuling from top to bottom, but I don''t know that since ancient times, most of the dress reforms in the world are from bottom to top. When ink clothes first appeared, people would give strange eyes when walking on the street. Now, after several years of development, ink clothes have appeared on the market like Confucian clothes People already feel normal.


    Similarly, there are many scholars in the world, and the number of ordinary people will be more than 100 times. Once everyone in the world wears ink clothes, I''m afraid it is the scholars who wear Confucian clothes who receive different eyes. At that time, the battle between Confucian clothes and ink clothes will really win. "


    "This clothing dispute is not only a dispute between Confucian clothes and Mohist house, but also a dispute between etiquette and interests. People all over the world may need one or two Confucian clothes to be used in etiquette, but they also need to save cloth and warm ink clothes to save interests." Merton concluded.


    "The essence is the struggle between etiquette and interests."


    Wu Meiniang''s heart suddenly opened up. All Xi Xi in the world are for profit. After Merton''s analysis, she was more convinced that the winning party in the future must be mo Fu. After all, the world is still dominated by poor people.


    "Young master, wise!"


    "Master, wise!"


    The three were convinced.

 Chapter 1213

    With the open supply of zippers in Mojia village and the publication of the version of ink clothes in ink magazines, ink clothes in Chang''an City have become popular again. Ordinary people buy high-quality and cheap ink clothes produced by Mojia village, while poor people buy Zippers to make ink clothes themselves.


    The ink house has a simple structure, good-looking style, and saves cloth. You know, the cost of traditional clothes is about half higher than ink clothes for the same dress, which is an irresistible temptation for ordinary people.


    As Merton guessed, ordinary people don''t need too many cumbersome ceremonial Confucian clothes. Even decent people only need one or two. Others can choose cheap and simple ink clothes as casual clothes.


    "Bottom up!" Ma Jiayun sneered when he heard the strategy of ink clothes. It''s just a group of mud legs. What''s the fear? The real power of Datang is still in the hands of the upper class, and their clothes can represent the trend of Datang.


    "But there are so many mud legs in the world. In this way, everyone in the world will wear ink clothes, which will certainly threaten the status of Confucian clothes." Liu Yinian, a doctor of calligraphy, said reluctantly.


    Ma Jiayun said reluctantly, "for the same dress, ink clothes really save cloth than Confucian clothes. Those mud legs who don''t understand etiquette will be attracted by the petty profit of ink clothes."


    Ma Jiayun understood the strategy of ink clothing, but he had no choice. The cost of Confucian clothing was indeed higher. He could not and could not reduce the price of Confucian clothing.


    "Mozi is as cunning as ever!" Liu Yinian said angrily.


    "Continue to let Confucian magazines publicize Confucian clothes, and let all students in the Tang Dynasty know Confucian dress etiquette." Ma Jiayun said firmly on his face that as long as Confucianism can control students all over the world, these are the future of the Tang Dynasty. Mohists want to publicize Confucian clothes from bottom to top, while Confucianism promotes Confucian clothes from top to bottom. It depends on who can laugh last.


    "Yes, sir!" Liu Yinian said respectfully.


    "Mohist has always been bold and reckless, and has often made amazing strategies. Go and talk to adult Yu, and never let Mohist show any more moths." Ma Jiayun said coldly.


    Liu Yinian immediately showed a knowing smile. He should not let the Mohists show any more moths. That is to let the Mohists snipe at the Mohists in an all-round way. Whenever the Mohists propose, Confucianism will fully oppose it and turn him yellow.


    The Grand Court meeting at the end of the year.


    All officials gathered, the whole Tai Chi hall was harmonious, and the national strength of the whole Tang Dynasty was booming. Good news came from three provinces and six ministries frequently, especially the new minister of Civil Affairs Tang Jian.


    "Thanks to your majesty, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is booming, and the Treasury revenue has increased by more than 20%, which is really gratifying!" Tang Jian said excitedly.


    The tax increase of 20% a year was a great achievement, and Tang Jian was very excited.


    "Congratulations, your majesty!"


    The officials congratulated one after another that the most direct manifestation of whether an empire is strong or not is taxation. The taxation of the Tang Dynasty has increased year by year, and the situation is very good.


    "Many cities have attracted the most attention for tax increase this year, such as Lanzhou, Hankou, Kaifeng, Luoyang and other places ranking first in the country." Tang Jian demonstrated his merit for these cities one by one.


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, proudly said: "Your Majesty, these cities with soaring taxes have benefited from the opening of brick roads. Luoyang naturally says that they have been important traffic roads since ancient times. After the construction of brick roads, they are even more powerful, while Hankou and Kaifeng have fully benefited from the construction of brick roads. Their wealth is not far from that of Yangzhou and Yizhou, which are called Yang Yi Er by the people. In a few years, they will certainly exceed the two cities. As for Before that, Lanzhou was only a small city in the northwest frontier. Thanks to the opening of the Longhai line, Lanzhou has become a pearl in the northwest. It can be seen how important brick roads are to the development of cities. I think it is necessary to speed up the construction of brick roads in the Tang Dynasty and strive to build three horizontal and five vertical plans as soon as possible. "


    "Three horizontal and five vertical!"


    Officials can''t help but take a breath. The three horizontal and five vertical map is the road planning map presented by Mohist Zi for the imperial court. Once built, a brick road transportation network will be formed throughout the Tang Dynasty. Now, with the strength of the whole country, the Tang Dynasty has only built two, one is the East-West Longhai line, the other is the North-South brick road. The Yangtze River takes Hankou as the transit point, and the Yellow River takes Zhengzhou as the transit point, Across the north and south.


    Strange to say, Zhengzhou, as the intersection of the North-South channel, is not developing fast. On the contrary, Kaifeng, a hundred miles away, is developing rapidly. This can''t help but remind people of the gratitude and resentment between the Zheng family and the Mohist family in Xingyang. I''m afraid the Mohist family has contributed a lot to Kaifeng''s achievements.


    It is also rumored that the governor of Kaifeng has moved up and down. He wants the imperial court to change the location of the Yellow River Bridge in Kaifeng. Moreover, if he goes straight from Handan, an important town of Hebei Province, to Hankou, he happens to pass through Kaifeng, but it is far away if he goes to Zhengzhou. This makes the Kaifeng government concentrate on fighting for the Yellow River Bridge regardless of the warning of the Zheng family in Yingyang.


    "Lord Zhang took it for granted too much. The three horizontal and five vertical map of mohou is beautiful, but for the route from Chang''an to Chengdu, it needs to cross the mountains and can''t be constructed at all. It''s just a fantasy." a civil servant despised and belittled Merton''s three horizontal and five vertical map.


    When Merton heard the speech, he said, "it''s bad. If you wanted to open the brick road from Chang''an to Chengdu before, it would be utopian. However, it''s different now. Ink has a skill to ensure that the brick road from Chang''an to Chengdu is smooth."


    "Seriously!" Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of works, said in surprise. The interests of Mohism and the Ministry of works are the same in building brick roads.


    Merton solemnly nodded his head and said, "yes, that''s civil gunpowder - blasting mountains to open a way is like opening up terraces. Driving mountains and roads along the gentle slope hillside, building bridges in mountain ditches, building tunnels in steep mountains, and opening brick roads from Chang''an city to Chengdu in a straight distance."


    "Blow up the mountain and open the way!"


    Just like Li Shimin, the officials were in an uproar when they heard this method. Gunpowder can break the city at once. Naturally, people will not doubt its ability to blow up the mountain and open the way,


    All officials could not help but look forward to what a feat it would be to open up the main traffic road to the south of Chang''an City in the mountains and mountains, winding like a dragon in the Qinling Mountains.


    For a long time, although Chang''an city is expensive as the imperial capital, the traffic only connects East and West, which is far from Luoyang, which extends in all directions. Now, the construction of Weishui bridge has opened up the northern main road for Chang''an city. If the southern channel of Chang''an city can be opened and connected with the Sichuan basin with the land of abundance, Chang''an traffic will immediately become accessible in all directions, and the development of Chang''an city will be unrestricted.


    "Ink technology!"


    All officials were shocked. Chang''an city was subject to traffic, and there were rumors that the government and the public had moved their capital to Luoyang. However, in only a few years, Chang''an city had opened up the main road in the north, and the south channel was feasible in theory. All this was due to ink technology.


    "No! Gunpowder is the most important thing. Once gunpowder is used for civilian use, I''m afraid it will be even more difficult to keep the secret of gunpowder!" Li Ji frowned. As the new minister of the Ministry of war, he naturally has to consider for the military. Gunpowder is too important to the Tang Dynasty, and there is too much risk of opening a mountain with gunpowder to divulge secrets.


    "The end will oppose!" a group of military generals objected one after another.


    Before, the civilian product of mojiazi gunpowder was matches. The military was relieved after confirming that the components of match gunpowder and real gunpowder were very different. However, if you blow up the mountain with gunpowder, I''m afraid you need real gunpowder, and the risk of leakage will be great.


    Yu Zhining couldn''t help sneering. He thought it would take a lot of effort to stop mojiazi, but he didn''t think that before he made efforts, the military department had directly denied mojiazi''s crazy proposal.


    Merton was not surprised by the military''s veto. He had already had countermeasures: "the confidentiality of gunpowder is indeed the top priority, but fortunately, these places for bombing mountains and roads are mostly high mountains and private places. Weichen suggested setting up a special engineering battalion to blow up the road. In this way, we can not only ensure that the mystery of gunpowder will not be revealed, but also ensure the smooth progress of the project."


    "Engineering camp!" everyone was in an uproar. No one thought that the Mohist school proposed to use soldiers to build roads.


    The generals of the Ministry of war could not help but bow their heads and ponder. The significance of opening the south passage of Chang''an city was self-evident. If soldiers were used to build it, it could not only ensure the construction period, but also ensure the secret of gunpowder, which was not unacceptable.

 Chapter 1214

    "It''s put fine timber to petty use. The" Tang Dynasty soldiers are the warriors who defend the frontier and fight for the Quartet. How can they be the farmers who pick up the hammer shovel to build roads, let alone use such gunpowder as a weapon to open up mountains and repair roads. "


    The reason why Chang sun Chong objected was not only his personal grudges with mojiazi, but also his ambition to dominate the firearm army. Once mojiazi established an Engineering Battalion, he could skillfully use gunpowder. As long as he made a little transformation, he would be an army skillfully using gunpowder weapons, which could be a great threat to the firearm army.


    "I object to the mountain bombing and road construction proposed by Mo Jijiu. Whether it''s building bridges in the mountains, building roads in the mountains, or digging tunnels, it costs a lot of money. Although our taxes in the Tang Dynasty have increased year by year, there are more places to spend money. There''s really no need to empty the national treasury again." Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, shook his head. Although the brick road from Chang''an to Chengdu has many advantages, the Treasury of Datang is really unable to bear it.


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, also said, "I think there are still a lot of brick roads not built in the Tang Dynasty. At present, we still focus on building brick roads. Although the plan of ink offering wine is good, it is appropriate to suspend it."


    For a moment, all the officials opposed Mohist''s use of gunpowder to blow up the mountain and open the way. Mohist felt the dilemma of being besieged on all sides for the first time.


    Merton wanted to argue again, but Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "since there are so many disputes, the matter is put on hold for the time being."


    Although he has the ambition to surpass the Qin emperor and the Sui Yang emperor, now the officials oppose it, he will not risk it.


    "Yes, Mr. Wei!"


    Although Merton was unwilling, he was proud to obey the order.


    Yu Zhining and others could not help showing a proud look. They were collectively opposed by the officials. The magical Mohist family finally encountered Waterloo, and the myth of Mohist family''s invincibility was finally broken.


    Merton looked at the mocking eyes of the ministers. He didn''t know what they were thinking and couldn''t help humming coldly


    "It''s not over yet!"


    If we let him retreat because of this difficulty, it would be too belittling of his Mohist son.

    At the end of the year, the Grand Court meeting ended, all officials dispersed, and the 14th year of Zhenguan finally came to an end,


    Today is new year''s Eve. From the royal family and nobles to the ordinary people, they put down their work and are ready to welcome the new year. At the end of the 14th year of Zhenguan, a heavy snow met unexpectedly, which added a lot of youth flavor to this year.


    "It''s snowing!"


    In the Mo mansion, Mosha jumped excitedly.


    During the Chinese new year every year, when Mosha is most excited, the elders of Mojia village use the latest ink technology to make a lot of fun toys for her, and her favorite gift this year is skis.


    Since Merton marched on the road with skis last year, skis have become popular in the north. Many people have followed the example of mojiazi to learn skiing. This winter, skiing has formed a trend in Chang''an city. Whenever there is heavy snow, many people ski for fun.


    "Be careful, you haven''t learned how to fall!" Princess Changle quickly reminded that after all, Mosha is only five years old and not suitable for skiing.


    "I''ll teach her!" Merton got up.


    "Like father, like daughter," said Princess Changle angrily. If Merton hadn''t pioneered skiing, how could a little girl of Martha be obsessed with this sport, which made her goal of cultivating Martha into a lady of the family far away.


    "How can a woman of Mohism be a lady without going out of the door?" Merton said proudly, bending down to zip up her ink suit, wear a hat, and stride into the snow with two skis, one big and one small.


    "Ha ha!" hearing the happy laughter of her father and daughter in the snow, Princess Changle shook her head helplessly.


    "Ah! Ah!"


    On one side, mertan heard the voice of his father and sister and shouted again and again.


    Princess Changle gently comforted her and said in a hate voice, "I like playing so much when I grow up. I''m sure I won''t be calm when I grow up."


    Father and daughter enjoyed themselves in the snow until it was getting late, and then they returned to the three-story villa.


    A pile of flames had already been lit in the hall, which was called the year-old fire in the Tang Dynasty. Even though the Mo mansion had been fully heated, the custom of lighting the year-old fire on New Year''s Eve has been adhered to.


    A family of four surrounded the fire and had a happy New Year''s Eve dinner.


    According to the custom, after the new year''s Eve dinner, every family will keep the year old, and the ink house is no exception.


    "Father, I want to hear you tell a story!" said Mosha, snuggling in her father''s arms. In the Tang Dynasty, it is well known that Mosha Zi is not only proficient in ink technology, but also a novelist. Every story he writes is wonderful.


    Merton naturally wouldn''t refuse his daughter''s request. Lang said, "as a father, I''ll give you a story about the strange fate of ice and snow!"


    Princess Changle couldn''t help smiling. At the beginning, she became acquainted with Merton step by step because of the strange fate of ice and snow, and finally knew and loved each other.


    Unexpectedly, the corner of Martha''s mouth turned and said, "this story has been heard many times, and you wrote it to your mother. Your daughter wants to listen to a new story, a special girl''s story."


    "The story of a girl?" Merton immediately raised his eyebrows. He didn''t expect that Martha should have such a proposal.


    When Princess Changle saw Merton''s expression, she couldn''t help but excite the general and said, "why, the world still has something difficult for you."


    Merton looked at Martha''s expectant eyes, raised his chest and said proudly, "why is it difficult?"


    One side of moshaton called and jumped, "father is great!"


    Merton thought slightly. There were many stories in his heart, but most of them were about princesses, which didn''t meet the requirements of Martha at all. Suddenly, he looked at the match that ignited the old fire at the table, and suddenly thought of a story about a little girl, which was very similar to today''s scene.


    "The father will give you the story of a little match girl." Merton held Martha in his arms and put a handful of matches in her hand.


    "Little match girl?" Martha looked at the match in her hand and couldn''t help looking forward.


    "It was extremely cold, snowing, and it was getting dark. It was the last day of the year - New Year''s Eve. On this dark and cold night, a clever little girl walked barefoot in the street."


    "Ah!"


    Martha couldn''t help exclaiming that on the same cold snowy day, she could wear warm ink clothes and play skiing, while the little girl had to sell matches in the street. On the same new year''s Eve, she sat in a warm room and snuggled in her father''s arms, while the little girl was running for a living.


    "The little girl walked barefoot. Her little feet were blue and red with cold. He had a lot of matches in his apron pocket and a bag in his hand. However, no one bought a match all day......"


    "She was cold and hungry, and her little hands were almost frozen. At this time, even a small match was good, so the little girl lit the first match, shrouded her little hand in the flame, and felt herself sitting by the fire.


    "The match went out, the stove disappeared, the little girl quickly lit another one, there was a huge flame in her hand, and a hot meal appeared in front of her


    "The next morning, the little match girl was found in the corner of the wall, with a smile on her mouth and a burned match stick in her hand."


    Merton was telling, and before the story was over, the unbearable Martha had fallen asleep.


    With a wave of her hand, Princess Changle asked Liu e to return Mosha and mertan to her room, snuggle her body in Merton''s arms and said, "today is new year''s Eve. You shouldn''t tell such a heavy story."


    Merton shook his head and said, "although this is just a story, such tragic experiences can be found everywhere in Datang."


    Princess Changle sighed that the status of women in the Tang Dynasty was very low. Although she and Merton made efforts to improve, it was still a drop in the bucket.


    "Weifu decided that the matches produced by the Mohist family would no longer be sold to businessmen, but all the matches would be sold by little girls, which could be regarded as a livelihood for girls all over the world." Merton suddenly said.


    "So good!" Princess Changle''s eyes lit up. Women in the world don''t have much means to make a living, especially the little girl doesn''t have any skills to make a living. It''s really a good way to sell matches to make a living.


    "May the tragedy of the little match girl never happen again in the Tang Dynasty." Merton took a deep breath.


    At this time, a chicken crow suddenly came out of the window. New Year''s Eve has passed and the new year is coming.


    Fifteen years of Zhenguan finally came.

 Chapter 1215

    After the Spring Festival of the 15th year of Zhenguan, many merchants are quietly waiting for the latest product of Mojia village. Naturally, matches, a civilian version of gunpowder, attract much attention. Everyone knows that once matches appear in the world, they must be very popular in the Tang Dynasty. As long as they can obtain an agent for matches, it must be a expensive proposal. However, Mojia village suddenly informed them, Matches no longer recruit agents.


    At the same time, beautiful scenery suddenly appeared in the streets of Chang''an city. Little girls were selling matches along the street with packets of matches in their hands.


    A fairy tale of a little match girl quietly spread in Chang''an City, which aroused the emotion of many loving people.


    "What a poor little girl. The world is too cold."


    "It''s just a few packs of matches. How much can it cost to buy them all?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, I felt pity for the little girl who sold matches. In addition, matches were a necessity. The people of Chang''an gave generously and bought the matches in the little girl''s hands.


    "It''s stupid. It''s said that this story was created by Mohist. It''s just a story made up by Mohist to sell matches. What''s really chilling is that Mohist uses even boys and girls." a Confucian scholar scoffed at the story. In his opinion, Mohist is a typical profiteer. Newspaper boys use boys and match girls, It''s a shame to use boys and girls to make money for Mojia village.


    "No, boys and girls can''t pick their shoulders or carry their hands. They all depend on their families. Delivering newspapers and selling matches are rare jobs in the world. The Mohist School enables a boy and girl to find a livelihood. You don''t know how valuable it is to poor families." a merchant defended the Mohist school. Most of those who can buy matches are children of poor families. These families have difficulties in survival. The profits from sending newspapers and selling matches are enough to reduce the burden of a family.


    "A pack of matches is only a penny, but it can be used for a long time, and there are a few Wen profits. The Mohists are just fishing for fame and reputation and buying people''s hearts." the Confucian sneered.


    "One person buys a pack of matches, and there are millions of households in Datang, not to mention that matches are consumables, and they need to be purchased again after use. The number of matches needed each year is astronomical, which itself is a big business. Although the little girl who sells matches doesn''t have a few cents in her hand, although a few cents are not worth mentioning to us, but for the families of the poor, It''s life-saving money, "sighed the merchant.


    The Confucian scholar was speechless. For the poor people, every penny is precious. The little girl who was originally a burden on the family can suddenly be self-sufficient. The significance of this is self-evident, but this can not dispel the doubts of the world.


    At any time, young girls are the hope of the country, and the law will protect them and let them grow up healthily. However, the Mohists openly recruit boys and girls to sell newspapers and matches. In the eyes of people, they are indeed suspected of employing child labor, which will naturally be questioned by countless people.


    "To spend a gentleman''s belly with a villain''s heart, these people should slander their husband so completely regardless of his original intention." Princess Changle was filled with indignation.


    Matches are a new thing. Major merchants all over the country are staring at this business, but Merton chose the most difficult way to directly let the local Mohist children give the opportunity to make money to the weakest little girls. Otherwise, how can they get the opportunity to subsidize their families.


    "It''s just gossip. I just need to have a clear conscience for my husband, but the doubts of the world make my husband understand that I''m not good enough." Merton mused.


    "This is not good enough?" Princess Changle looked at Merton in amazement.


    Merton nodded and said, "first, boys and girls who sell newspapers and matches, the Mohist school should combine with the Red Cross to give priority to the employment of children from extremely poor families. In this way, the effect of subsidizing their family''s plight is more and more obvious."


    "Good steel is used on the blade!" Princess Changle''s eyes brightened. For children from poor families, the opportunity to get a newsboy and a little match girl is just a timely help, while for children from ordinary families, it is just icing on the cake.


    "Second, the Red Cross Society can use this story to call on Datang to donate clothes to these newspaper boys and match girls to avoid the tragedy in the story. At the same time, the Mohists will also prohibit these boys and girls from working in extreme weather. After all, newspapers and matches are afraid of rain and snow," Merton continued.


    Princess Changle nodded slightly and said, "this is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. For poor families, it is given to both fish and fishing."


    Merton took a long breath: "in addition, for newsboys, sending newspapers and dealing with words all day, they can take the opportunity to read newspapers and literacy. In time, they will not become pillars. While the little girl selling matches can be familiar with all kinds of fire prevention and fire fighting knowledge, which may be useful at critical moments."


    "In this way, no one in the government or the public will question the husband''s original heart." Princess Changle cheered at the festival. Merton''s moves are beneficial but valuable to those poor families. Even newspaper children can take the opportunity to change their fate by reading.


    Sure enough, with the publication of the new issue of Ink magazine, the Mohists announced that they would cooperate with the Red Cross to recruit boys and girls from poor families and donate them, which immediately caused an uproar in the government and the public.


    For ordinary people, letting a 10-year-old child work is child labor. For poor families, although the remuneration for delivering newspapers and selling matches is meager, it can subsidize their families and alleviate their poor life. Not to mention Merton''s ability to read and take advantage of the opportunity to change their fate, which has aroused the popularity of everyone.


    Although some people still questioned Merton, his voice was much lower, and even if someone wanted to keep biting, he was soon attracted by another news.


    "Mozi has made new poems, and they are long!"


    With an exclamation, Chang''an city suddenly aroused thousands of waves. After many years, Mo Jiazi finally appeared new poems, which were long.


    In the Tang Dynasty, poetry has always been the most mainstream. In those days, mojiazi was famous around the world by two and a half poems at the gate of the Imperial College. Later, even if he wrote popular words, tears stirring novels and thought-provoking fairy tales, they were considered to be doing nothing.


    Now, when Mohist Zi, who is the most famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, issued a new poem, how can he not let the people in an uproar? For a moment, even the Confucians who disliked Mohist Zi couldn''t wait to buy an ink journal and turn to the poetry column.


    "Alas, the danger is high. It''s difficult to climb the blue sky on the Shu Road!"


    Mo Jiazi''s new poem "the difficulty of Shu Road" was amazing at the beginning.

 Chapter 1216

    "Hiss!"


    All read the opening: "the yellow crane can''t fly too far, and the ape wants to climb. What plate of green mud, hundred steps and nine folds linger on the rocks."


    "This is the Shu Road?" the people in front of Mo magazine couldn''t help exclaiming.


    "Yes, this is the Shu Road!" a businessman nodded heavily. "The shortest way to Shu is to take the plank road, which is built on the steep mountains and cliffs. The narrowest place can only accommodate one person, and it all needs manpower. Otherwise, why did Zhuge Kongming invent the wooden ox and quickhorse in those years."


    Anyone who walks along the Shu Road can still remember it. It is probably the most difficult business road in the world. I don''t know how many businessmen die every year because of taking the Shu Road.


    "The Mohist School''s bombing of mountains and building roads can certainly solve the difficult situation of Shu roads once and for all, and connect Guanzhong and Shu. This can''t help but open up the south passage of Chang''an City, which is of great benefit to Shu." Chang''an city is full of discussions.


    Since ancient times, all dynasties have never thought about connecting the territory with Guanzhong. Unfortunately, limited by the technology at that time, the plank road is the limit of what they have done. Now with gunpowder and the success of Weishui bridge, the technology of building the road from Guanzhong to Sichuan and Shu has matured.


    "Wishful thinking! Now the land of Sichuan and Sichuan is not isolated from Chang''an City, and there are plank roads and other distant roads to bypass. Everyone knows the benefits of building the road from Chang''an city to Sichuan and Sichuan, but this benefit can not be compared with the risk of gunpowder leakage."


    Wei Si''an couldn''t help humming coldly. In his opinion, the Mohist school was just doing useless work. At most, it was just asking Shu officials to help it. It was in the court hall and couldn''t change the situation. It was impossible for the military department to agree to build the road at the risk of gunpowder leakage.


    "Not good!" suddenly editor in chief Ma saw the last paragraph and suddenly shouted.


    "What''s the matter?" wesan frowned.


    Editor in chief Ma said bitterly, "I''m afraid even the military headquarters will defecte this time."


    Wesan looked down hastily, and immediately stayed there, trembling all over.


    "The sword Pavilion is towering and steep. One man is in charge of the pass and ten thousand people cannot open it. The guards or bandits turn into wolves and jackals. They avoid tigers in the morning and snakes in the evening. They grind their teeth and suck blood and kill people like hemp."


    A resounding poem made his scalp numb. The Mohist family even wrote the strategic dilemma of Shu with strategic verses. The difficulty of Shu Road means that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. In particular, the sword Pavilion is closed by one man. If there is a rebellion, I''m afraid we just need to stick to the sword Pavilion, which is enough to keep the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty out of the territory. In this way, the military significance of building Shu Road has also been improved, and the Ministry of war is afraid that it will be difficult to stop the Mohist family.


    "The Shu Road is difficult, but it is difficult to go to the sky, and I''m afraid it is even more difficult to build the Shu Road. The Mohist family has changed the situation with a poem. The Mohist family is worthy of being the Mohist family." chief editor Ma sighed.


    Originally, mojiazi advocated the construction of Shu roads, but everyone opposed it and was helpless. Now, as soon as this poem by mojiazi was published, the attitude of the Ministry of war will change greatly, and the officials in Sichuan and Shu will immediately turn against each other and take the lead in advocating the construction of Shu roads. The situation in the central court is immediately conducive to mojiazi.


    Wei Si''an sneered: "it''s impossible. In addition to competing with the court, there is also the most practical problem, that is, money. In recent years, the government has built roads wantonly. It has already emptied the national treasury and can''t take out the money to build the Shu Road. It''s difficult for a skillful woman to make bricks without rice. What does the Mo family take to build the Shu Road?"


    "But what if mojiazi proposes to issue bonds again?" chief editor Ma frowned.


    Wesan shook his head and said: "Using the advanced ink technology of Mohist school to attract the imperial court to build infrastructure is the grandiose plan of Mohist school. Firstly, the imperial court reuses ink technology. Secondly, the imperial court needs to absorb a lot of taxes from industry to make up for the deficit, which is even more inseparable from Mohist school. Now Confucianism has insight into Mohist School''s grandiose plan. If Mohist school wants to repeat its old skills, I''m afraid it will be even more difficult. I can protect you As long as the Grand Court meeting is held at the beginning of the year, the Treasury''s money can''t pass the night, not to mention issuing bonds. Unless mojiazi still wants to use Mojia village''s own strength to build Shu Road, but Shu Road is no better than Weishui bridge. Even ten Mojia villages can''t fill this big hole. "


    "It is a consensus reached by Confucianism to besiege mojiazi in an all-round way. From now on, it is extremely difficult for mojiazi to succeed, not to mention super projects such as building Shu roads."


    When he heard Wei Si''an''s words, editor in chief Ma didn''t know whether to be happy or sad. The Confucianists opposed for their own sake. At this moment, he vaguely expected the mojiazi to create another miracle and build the Shu Road, a project benefiting all the people.


    Sure enough, with the widespread spread of the well-known difficulty of Shu roads, the plight of Shu was clearly put in front of the Tang Dynasty, and the whole people raised a heated debate about whether to build Shu roads,


    "The land of Sichuan and Sichuan has a long way to go."


    When the Sichuan Road was difficult to spread to Sichuan and Sichuan, the people all burst into tears. Sichuan and Sichuan were trapped in the Sichuan Road. It was a very painful thing to go out of Sichuan every time. Now we finally see the dawn. As long as we can build the Sichuan Road, Sichuan and Sichuan will be connected with Guanzhong in the future. The benefits are enough to impress all the Shu people.


    Under the continuous request of the people under the rule, the officials in Shu couldn''t sit still any longer. They jointly wrote to the imperial court and asked for the construction of Shu roads.


    The letter of Shu officials has just arrived, and Li Jing, a semi retired, also wrote a letter stating that the terrain of Shu is dangerous. Once there is an emergency, it will become a future disaster. It is imperative to strengthen the connection between Shu and Guanzhong and build Shu roads.


    Suddenly, the situation of chaotang changed greatly. The original stillborn Shu Road plan once again became the focus of chaotang, and all these changes were caused by a poem by Mohist Zi.


    "The power of Mohist poetry is so great." all those who know the inside story smack their tongue.

 Chapter 1217

    New year''s meeting.


    In the Tai Chi hall, hundreds of officials gathered, and one or two strange figures appeared in the Tai Chi hall, which surprised all the officials.


    "Yizhou order, Hanzhong order!"


    When the civil and military officials saw these two figures, they couldn''t help but be in an uproar. They didn''t expect that Yizhou order and Hanzhong order came together just after the letter of Shu officials arrived. Naturally, there was only one purpose, that is, the plan of Shu Road.


    Hanzhong is not far from Chang''an City, so it''s not surprising to be able to get to Chang''an City in a short time, while Yizhou is thousands of miles away from Chang''an City, but can get to Chang''an City in the shortest time, which makes people feel the urgency of Yizhou order for the construction of Shu Road.


    For a long time, Yizhou''s prosperity has been known to the world. However, with the large-scale construction of brick roads, major cities have sprung up. Lanzhou, Kaifeng, and even Hankou, which was not regarded by Yizhou, have faintly surpassed Yizhou. In addition, the imperial court''s prohibition of alcohol has made a devastating blow to the wine industry in Sichuan and Sichuan, The original high alcohol tax immediately became empty talk, and the tax in Yizhou plummeted.


    In recent years, according to the assessment of the Ministry of officials, county magistrates such as Lanzhou, Kaifeng and Hankou are all superior, but his Yizhou order is medium. If this goes on, he is afraid that the position of Yizhou order will be difficult to protect. How can he not make Yizhou order anxious.


    After hearing about the plan of the Mohist School and the difficulty of the Shu Road, Yizhou Ling immediately understood that his opportunity had come. Once he had built the Shu Road and connected the Sichuan and Shu land with Chang''an, Yizhou''s development would certainly advance by leaps and bounds. What''s more, he could take advantage of the achievements of the Shu Road and rank in the court.


    "The minister Yizhou ordered Feng Guan to take the Yizhou people''s Wanmin book and pray for your majesty to build the Shu Road." in the Taiji hall, Yizhou ordered Feng Guan to hold the Shu People''s Wanmin book and pray for the road. He spoke sincerely and frankly that the Shu people have been suffering for a long time, just like stopping crying blood. All officials in the court were moved.


    "Yizhou order is too impatient. The imperial court has long made a decision on this matter. It is too early to build the Shu Road, and it involves the risk of gunpowder leakage, not to mention the huge cost of building the Shu Road. At present, it is simply not feasible to build the Shu Road." Ma Jiayun, the new son of the state, retorted.


    Hanzhong ordered Liang Mingzhe to bow down and worship again: "it''s not that the officials are anxious, but that the land of Shu can''t wait. As we all know, there are four roads from Chang''an to Sichuan and Shu. The first is the well-known Jinniu Road. The Jinniu Road is the shortest, but the most dangerous. This is where mohou''s poem Shu Road is difficult and difficult to go to the blue sky."


    The officials nodded slightly. Although they were in the court, they still heard of the golden bull road for a long time.


    "In addition, there are Ziwu Road, Baoxie road and Chencang road. These roads into Sichuan are either long distance or dangerous terrain, which is not conducive to road construction, and all can not be opened to traffic. They can only be transported by horsemen. If the Shu Road can be built, it will certainly change the history of no traffic in Sichuan and Sichuan for thousands of years," said Ling in Hanzhong.


    Even the small Lanzhou Ling can become a new upstart in the political arena of the Tang Dynasty by virtue of the Longhai line. If he can build the Shu Road, his future achievements in Hanzhong will not be inferior to Lanzhou. At least now, the output of the whole Sichuan and Shu region is far greater than that of the whole northwest region, and even the western region is not as important as that of Sichuan and Shu.


    Yizhou Ling bowed: "Since ancient times, during the Warring States period, Qin gained a great deal of strength in Sichuan and Shu, and finally unified the six countries. When Chu and Han fought for hegemony, Liu Bang dormant in Shu, built plank roads in the open and concealed way, and ruled the world. When the Tang Dynasty was founded, Sichuan and Shu paid money and people, and made great contributions. Since ancient times, the fate of Sichuan and Shu has been linked with Guanzhong. Now there is a plan for Shu roads, The land of Sichuan and Sichuan will soon be connected with Guanzhong. I believe you know more about the significance of this than you do when you are in the court. "


    The princes of the court were silent one after another. Naturally, they knew the benefits, but if they passed the Shu Road plan, their plan to restrict Mohism would fail.


    "The secret of gunpowder is too important to the Tang Dynasty, and the risk of leakage is too great." Li Ji still hesitated and objected.


    Feng Guan said proudly, "the country is always solid in virtue, not in danger. Gunpowder is indeed important, but in the past, our Datang did not have gunpowder, which still deterred the four sides, let alone mohou has proposed to establish an engineering camp to avoid the risk of gunpowder leakage."


    "However, as mohou said, the ultimate purpose of military ink technology is for civilian use. Whether it is to resist the enemy or blow up mountains and build roads, it is the supreme achievement of gunpowder." Hanzhong Ling continued.


    Merton couldn''t help cheering secretly. These officials really said that they said that all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty were speechless. It seems that he had the right choice to let the officials in Sichuan and Sichuan come forward.


    "To build the road out of Sichuan is actually a dream of Sichuan for thousands of years. Please have mercy on the wishes of the people in Sichuan for thousands of years." Yizhou Ling and Hanzhong Ling pleaded bitterly.


    Listening to the cry of Yizhou Ling and Hanzhong Ling, and thinking about the plight of Sichuan and Shu for thousands of years, the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help sighing and could no longer disobey the plan of Shu Road. They could besiege mojiazi alone, but they couldn''t continue to besiege millions of surnames in Sichuan and Shu.


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, frowned and said: "According to the proposal of Mo liquor offering office, it needs to dig nearly 10 tunnels, more than 10 bridges, not to mention the number of Huanshan roads, to build Shu roads from the interception of Jinniu Road and Baoxie road. However, the quantities of the construction of Shu roads from Chencang road or Ziwu road are much smaller. I don''t know why Mo liquor offering is willing to seek far and easy, but it shouldn''t be because this new Shu Road is through Mohism The village! "


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, felt that since he could not stop the Shu Road plan from the general righteousness, he attacked the Shu Road plan from the private morality.


    All of a sudden, the officials of Manchu Dynasty looked aside at the Mohist School and saw Merton stand out and say: "You only see the difficulties of the Shu Road plan, but you don''t realize the benefits of the Shu Road plan. Intercepting Jinniu Road and Baoxie road to build a new Shu Road is the nearest road. It''s only 700 miles from Chang''an city to Hanzhong City. The new Shu Road can take other routes, but it will be more than 500 miles from Chencang road or Ziwu road I''m afraid the cost of Baili road is not a small number. Since the costs of the three roads are almost the same, why don''t we choose the nearest one? Once the new Shu Road is completed, the time from Chang''an city to Hanzhong can be shortened from the original ten days to one day and one night, and the vehicles and horses don''t stop all the way. "


    "Go to Sichuan day and night! Cars and horses don''t stop!" Yizhou Ling and Hanzhong Ling burst into tears. What a miracle it will be. Not only will the time to go in and out of Sichuan and Sichuan be greatly reduced, but also the means of transportation have been changed from manpower to vehicles and horses, and the carrying capacity has been greatly increased. The benefits are unspeakable.

 Chapter 1218

    "Tell your majesty that the Shu Road plan can connect the land of Sichuan and Sichuan with the Guanzhong Plain, which not only solves the way out of Sichuan, but also opens the south passage of Chang''an city. This is a win-win thing. Please think twice." unexpectedly, Chang''an ordered Su Luosheng to resist the pressure of Confucianism and take the lead in supporting the Shu Road plan.


    In fact, it''s not surprising that suluosheng defected. After all, the situation of suluosheng and Yizhou Ling is the same as that of Hanzhong Ling. No, it''s even worse than them. The targets of Yizhou and Hanzhong are Hankou and Lanzhou. Although these two cities have developed rapidly, they have not surpassed Yizhou and Hankou. However, Chang''an City has now completely fallen into the disadvantage and has been overtaken by Luoyang in terms of tax revenue and population, If it weren''t for the aura of Chang''an City and the imperial capital, I''m afraid Chang''an City would have been defeated.


    If we can build a new Shu Road, Su Luosheng''s political achievements will be better, otherwise we will lose the position of Chang''an order!


    "Traitor!" Confucian officials immediately became angry and waited for Su Luosheng one by one. However, Su Luosheng shook his head and smiled bitterly. Just like Yizhou Ling and Hanzhong Ling, they could not help themselves.


    However, Su Luosheng was not the first. Soon, local officials in Chang''an and officials in Sichuan and Sichuan also defected to support their hometown. After all, once the new Shu Road is built, their family will also benefit a lot.


    "Since you Aiqing agreed to the plan to build the Shu Road, that''s right."


    Li Shimin saw that the situation in chaotang was turning and was about to give an order. Suddenly, Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, stepped out with a bitter smile and said, "I''m not against the Shu Road plan, but the Ministry of civil affairs really has no money!"


    "Tell your majesty, the National Treasury is empty, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs has no money!" suddenly, the whole dynasty was surprised. The Tang Dynasty was the richest in the world, and the Ministry of civil affairs was the place where the wealth of the world gathered. At the end of the year, the Ministry of civil affairs of the great dynasty had just reported the good news of the sharp increase in taxes, but it had just passed a year, and the National Treasury was empty in the blink of an eye.


    Li Shimin was suddenly surprised, stared at Tang Jian suspiciously and said, "how can there be no money?"


    Tang Jian said with a wry smile: "I inform your majesty that as soon as Wei Chen took office yesterday, he received the financial statements reported by the three provinces and six ministries this year. The Ministry of war needs to update and replace weapons, which is a large cost."


    Li Ji couldn''t help laughing at Merton. It''s because of mojiazi that the third generation steel produced by mojiazi village is the weapon before the Tang Dynasty. The Ministry of war naturally speeds up the pace to replace the old weapons in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the military.


    "The Ministry of rites needs to allocate a lot of materials to Sima Khan to help Turks gain a foothold in the old land of Monan."


    Linghu de Yu, the Minister of rites, is a little tangled. The foundation of Linghu family is in Guanzhong. If the new Shu Road is built, Linghu family can also benefit a lot. However, as a leader of Confucianism, he has to plan for Confucianism.


    "The Ministry of works has also written the plan of Xinzhuan road and Huaihe River Bridge............................."


    Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, is not ashamed. Building a new Shu Road is useless to him. It would be better to build more brick roads. After all, the new Shu Road has been built for more than ten years. At that time, I''m afraid he was not the Minister of the Ministry of work.


    "The Ministry of officials


    "Ministry of criminal justice...................."


    Tang Jian entrusted the financial plans of various departments in the central government one by one. Everything is an urgent event. After careful calculation, even if Datang''s wealth increased a lot last year, I''m afraid there will be a lot of losses even if it spent all of it.


    Although the three provinces and six ministries, whether intentionally or unintentionally, are prepared to report the financial affairs of each department in advance, some sincerely want to add blockage to the Mohist school, and some are afraid that once the court agrees to build a new Shu Road, it will use a large amount of money, which will inevitably affect the financial affairs of their departments.


    "Why don''t you spend some money to build a new Shu Road first, and then allocate it once autumn Fu comes down." Chang''an Ling frowned and suggested.


    "I''m afraid it''s a big taboo for the country to live beyond its means, and the money and food needed to build the Shu Road is not a bit. If you force yourself on the horse, I''m afraid it will affect the livelihood of the people." Tang Jian said helplessly.


    Although the three provinces and six departments have some intention of asking for money in advance, they are all legitimate reasons after all. If they really set foot on the new Shu Road, I''m afraid the Treasury will be half empty immediately, and the remaining money will not be enough.


    "What about issuing treasury bonds?" Yizhou Ling Feng Guan suggested.


    Tang Jian shook his head and said, "Datang Xingxiu brick road has issued a lot of treasury bonds. If we issue treasury bonds again, I''m afraid we will be unable to make ends meet."


    Although treasury bonds are a good method of drawing lots, the annual interest is not a small amount. I''m afraid it won''t work if too many treasury bonds are issued.


    Li Shimin could not help but frown. The affairs of the three provinces and six departments are the major events of the country. Lack of money will only cause unrest in the country. As for the Shu Road, it has not been repaired for thousands of years. Naturally, the Shu Road will be built only with rich money. Without money, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.


    "Hahaha, it''s even more difficult for us, but it''s easy for Mo sacrificial wine. I''m afraid that Mo sacrificial wine''s persistent desire to build the Shu Road has already been made." suddenly, the eldest sun rushed out of the way of liejijiang.


    In an instant, the hearts of all officials were moved. It was difficult for a skillful woman to cook without rice. Perhaps one person could do it. That was the mojiazi. After all, he had done it twice. The first time was when he built the brick road. The court had no money. The mojiazi proposed to issue national debt, which finally allowed the brick road to be built. The second time was to build the Weishui bridge. The Mojia village used its own five-year endowment As a bridge repair fund, the tax finally made the Weishui bridge completed on schedule.


    This time, the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help sighing. The money for the construction of the Shu Road this time was so huge that even ten Mojia villages couldn''t fill the hole. It was not cooking without rice. It was a lack of a grain depot!


    Looking at the mocking expression of Chang sun Chong, Merton sneered and said, "brother Chang sun is indeed a bosom friend of mo. he guessed Mo''s plan. Yes, Mo did raise money for the construction of a new Shu Road."


    "What?"


    Suddenly, the man Dynasty was in an uproar and looked at Merton one by one.


    "Mo sacrificial wine, do you know how much it costs to build the Shu Road? It''s not enough for tens of thousands of passes." Tang Jian was the most sensitive to money and took the lead in doubting.


    Merton nodded: "this Mo naturally understands that the new Shu Road will be built at least three million times, and it will not be capped."


    Three million Guan is only the initial estimate. If we encounter difficulties during the construction of the new Shu Road, I''m afraid this amount will rise.


    "Then you still......" Qin Qiong said anxiously.


    Tang Jian said in his heart, "don''t let the Bank of Mojia village advance money for Mo sacrificial wine! Tang''s ugly words can be said in front. The court and the government can''t afford the interest of 3 million yuan."


    The interest of 3 million yuan is not a small amount. Datang''s finance has reached the extreme. If you add the interest generated by the 3 million yuan loan, I''m afraid it will affect the national livelihood.


    Merton shook his head and said, "although the Mojia village bank can take out three million yuan, I''m afraid it will empty the bank. Once there is a disturbance, the Mojia village bank will only go bankrupt. Naturally, Momou won''t do anything to destroy the Great Wall."


    Many civil servants couldn''t help sighing. They didn''t know whether it was regret or regret.


    "After talking so much, it''s not empty talk!" Chang sun Chong continued sarcastically.


    Merton retorted: "if it''s a private matter, the MOH family will complete it even if they borrow money, but building a new Shu Road is a state matter. If it''s unreasonable to use private money, the biggest problem in building a new Shu Road is money. MOH has a skill that is enough to raise three million yuan for the court to build a new Shu Road."

 Chapter 1219

    "One ink skill is worth three million passes!" the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty once again exclaimed. It is not that the ink skills of the Mohists are not worth so much. On the contrary, many ink skills are invaluable, and the wealth created is far more than three million passes. However, the advantage of Mohist ink technology is that it takes a long time to transform, and can not directly become money. It can raise three million yuan in a short time, unless it is money casting.


    "Yes, it''s money!" Merton seemed to understand everyone''s mind, and then Lang said.


    "Did the Mohists discover the gold mine!" Tang Jian trembled. He could raise three million yuan in a short time. Unless he found a super large gold mine, it would be possible to raise money. Did the Mohists discover the ink technique of looking for gold mines.


    "No!" Merton shook his head.


    "Silver mine!" Tang Jian frowned. If it was silver mine, it would be feasible, but its value would be much lower.


    "No!" Merton shook his head again.


    "Copper mine!" Tang Jian''s face darkened. Copper mine is not rare in the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, the value of copper mine is low and it is difficult to mine. It is necessary to cast three million copper coins for every penny. I''m afraid I don''t know when to cast them. It''s unknown whether I can earn three million copper coins back.


    "Neither!" said Merton.


    "There is no mine! Can it be that Mo sacrificing wine can''t amuse all officials in the dynasty." Tang Jian said displeased.


    Merton laughed and said, "naturally, this servant dare not, but in addition to gold, silver and copper, there is another thing that can be cast into money, that is iron!"


    "Iron money!" Tang Jian was stunned. The money casting proposed by the Mo family turned out to be iron money.


    Merton nodded, bowed to Li Shimin and said, "my minister was ordered to study the three-level monetary system of gold, silver and copper in the Tang Dynasty."


    "It''s true!" Li Shimin thought. He did let Merton study the three-tier monetary system when the silver note appeared.


    "However, Wei Chen unexpectedly found that there was still a loophole in Datang''s money." Merton said.


    "There are still loopholes?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton took out a pack of matches and motioned to the man Dynasty''s civil and military: "today, the smallest monetary unit in the Tang Dynasty is a penny. A penny can buy a pack of matches, a total of ten boxes. However, if people don''t want to buy a pack of matches, what if they just want a box of matches?"


    "This......!" all civil and military officials immediately frowned. They were highly respected and did not pay attention to money. Where did accounting compare to a penny.


    "In addition to matches, there are many things in the world. Whether you need so much or not, you need to buy goods for at least a penny, which is very inconvenient for people all over the world." Merton opened a package of matches and put a box of matches in the hands of Ministers around him.


    Seeing a box of matches in his hand, Tang Jian had to admit that what Mozi said was true.


    "Iron money is not. Its value is smaller than copper money. It can fill the smallest unit of money, so that all goods in the world can have value estimation. Even a box of small matches can be found with iron money." Merton said.


    The eldest grandson chuckled and said, "the ink sacrifice is too whimsical. Do you think the past dynasties didn''t think of using iron money? You should know that iron is the easiest to rust and not easy to store. Once the iron money rusts, the money in the hands of the people will become scrap iron unless you can keep the iron from rust."


    Before he finished, Chang sun Chong suddenly changed his face and suddenly exclaimed, "stainless steel!"


    The Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly realized Merton''s plan. In addition to its own value, another reason why gold, silver and copper become money is that they can be preserved for a long time, while iron is not. Once rusted, it will become scrap iron. Iron money is very easy to rust and can not be used as money at all, but the stainless steel of mojiazi perfectly solves the disadvantage of iron rust, It makes it possible to cast iron money.


    "Yes, it''s stainless steel!" Merton nodded solemnly. "Casting money with stainless steel is not only bright in color, but also enough to ensure that it will not rust within ten years. Under careful preservation, it is enough to be preserved for a long time, which fully meets the needs of money casting."


    "Military ink technology for civilian use!" Chang sun Chong was embarrassed and gnashed his teeth. He didn''t expect that the value of stainless steel was far from being used as stainless steel tableware and handrails. It was even associated with money casting.


    As we all know, casting money is a lucrative business. If you use iron to cast money, you can certainly accumulate a lot of wealth in a short time.


    "Wei Chen suggested that two pieces of iron coins be minted under the one Wen Kaiyuan Tongbao. One is a pentagonal iron coin, and the other is a pentagonal iron coin as a supplementary currency, which is settled as the smallest monetary unit. In this way, it can not only facilitate people''s life, but also affect the market price of gold, silver and copper. The imperial court can also raise money for the construction of a new Shu Road."


    "Hoo!"


    Suddenly, the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help breathing. Whether it was iron money or fifteen cents, it was a blank area of the Tang Dynasty. It was equivalent to a huge fortune in many places out of thin air. It was profitable without harm.


    "No, the iron money is not without flaws!" the elder sun Chong was unwilling and retorted, "although the stainless steel will not rust in a short time, it can''t stand for a long time. What if the iron money rusts after ten or eight years, or if the people keep it improperly? Can it be lost by the people?"


    All officials nodded. Stainless steel rusted slowly, not completely. I''m afraid it will rust in a few decades.


    Merton has long had a plan and has a plan: "Then the post station will play a role. Once the iron money rusts, it is free to go to the post station bank to replace the new iron money. The imperial court will produce a batch of new iron money every year to replace the old iron money. As for some people buried underground for a long time, there is no way. After all, the copper money will stink after a long time. Fortunately, it is only a few cents, which will not hurt the muscles and bones of the people."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. The loss of a few cents was not big. It can even be said that it had no impact at all. Iron money can be implemented.


    Tang Jian took a deep breath: "iron money is indeed feasible. It is widely said in Chang''an city that Mohist scholars turn stones into gold. Today, Tang admired it. I heard that mohou has been idle recently. I don''t know if he is willing to work in the Ministry of civil affairs. Any position is selected by mohou. Even if mohou likes the position of minister, as long as mohou likes it, I will give in."


    People were shocked. They didn''t expect that Tang Jian, the Minister of the people''s Department, was convinced by the Mohist school. However, they didn''t think that Tang Jian''s words were exaggerated. The Mohist school was indeed quite talented in the way of economy.


    Merton quickly said humbly, "Lord Tang is flattered. The junior officer is young and frivolous. He is not enough to undertake this important task."


    Yizhou made Feng Guan and Leng suluosheng in Chang''an ignore it and smiled. Since Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of the people, had agreed with the Mohist plan, it was safe to raise money for the new Shu Road.

 Chapter 1220

    Suddenly, Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry who had been silent, suddenly listed and said: "I inform your majesty that casting money itself has a great fire consumption, and the face value of iron money is too small. Let alone making money, it''s good to be able to break even. However, for the convenience of the people, the Ministry of industry is willing to cast iron money for the people at a fair price."


    "Break even!"


    Suddenly, the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar and looked at Zhang Liang, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of industry.


    "Break even! How can this be possible? Is adult Zhang joking? When can you only break even by casting money?" Yizhou surprised Feng Guan. It was not a big joke that he had a way to raise money when he finally built the Shu Road, but he could only break even? "


    "Lord Feng, don''t worry. Let me calculate for you. Needless to say, the value of stainless steel, not to mention the charcoal needed to melt steel and the labor needed to cast iron money,...... but the face value we cast is only fifty cents and one jiao. The iron money of fifty cents may make some money, and the one Jiao is doomed to lose money." Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of industry, calculated the cost of iron money one by one, and the cost and wages were almost the same, which completely failed everyone''s idea of making a lot of money by casting money.


    Feng Guan''s heart is getting colder and colder. Stainless steel has just appeared and is popular in Datang. The price is not low, let alone the cost of casting money. I''m afraid I won''t make much money.


    Confucian officials immediately showed a knowing smile. Mohist Zi was really extraordinary and almost made him succeed. Unfortunately, people are not as good as heaven. He never thought that casting money can only guarantee capital. It is impossible to take the opportunity to raise much money.


    Chang sun Chong even sneered in his heart. This time he wanted to see what tricks the Mohists had.


    However, Merton did not panic and said, "tell your majesty that the stainless steel secret technology is the ink technology that Weichen has already announced. Naturally, it is not the ink technology that Weichen said. The secret technology that Weichen said is the latest hydraulic stamping secret technology of Mohism."


    "The secret technique of hydraulic stamping!" Li Shimin wondered if this ink technique could enable the imperial court to successfully raise 3 million yuan.


    "Yes, the secret technique of hydraulic stamping is the latest forging technique of Mojia village. It is specially made by Mojia for forging stainless steel. It takes no manpower, only needs hydraulic drive, and the process is advanced. The stainless steel objects produced are not only exquisite, but also cheap. If the imperial court uses the secret technique of hydraulic stamping, it can reduce the cost of money casting by 50%. In addition, Mojia village will Supply the imperial court with stainless steel at a fair price, and the casting cost of iron money will be reduced by another 20%. "Merton waved his big hand.


    The cost of forging iron coins was reduced by 50% and then 20%. The imperial court could guarantee the capital. Now it uses the secret technique of hydraulic stamping. Isn''t it an instant profit.


    "Seriously?" citizen Li was pleasantly surprised. Although the face value of iron money is small, the victory lies in the large amount. Once it makes a profit, it is not impossible to run through three million.


    "Yes, and the secret technique of hydraulic stamping is the most advanced forging technique in the Tang Dynasty. It can''t be imitated at all. Once the iron money is issued, there will be no fake money." Merton promised that the iron money forged by ordinary technology can only keep the principal. Naturally, no one will take the risk to imitate the iron money without making money.


    "Congratulations, your majesty. With the secret skill of hydraulic stamping, you can forge iron money. I have made a huge fortune in the Tang Dynasty out of thin air. However, I am still opposed to using this money to build Shu roads. Now my Tang Dynasty is full of waste and waiting to prosper. With the injection of this 3 million iron money, it will certainly benefit all the people in the world." Yu Zhining saw that the Mexican family had turned the situation around. He immediately knew that nothing could be done. His heart moved, Suddenly the idea of iron money came into play.


    "The minister proposed to harness the Yellow River first. The harm of the Yellow River endangers tens of millions of people, which is more urgent than the Shu Road." Chang sun Wuji proposed.


    "My minister suggested that we take the opportunity to build more brick roads. The role of brick roads is well known all over the world. Once we build more brick roads, the economy of the Tang Dynasty will soar again, and then we will naturally have money to build Shu roads." Zhang Liang, the Minister of industry, proposed.


    "I propose that we use this money to popularize compulsory education, which is a grand plan for a century,......."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    For a moment, the profit of the cast iron money was still on paper. The chaotang princes had another idea. Each one was high sounding and had a long way to go.


    Yizhou made Feng Guan angry and said, "it''s unreasonable. In order to prevent the construction of the new Shu Road, you advanced the Treasury money in advance. Now you rely on the ink technology of the ink Hou and found a way to raise money. You even came out to rob again. It''s too deceptive."


    Yu Zhining said with awe inspiring Justice: "don''t be angry, Lord Feng. There are priorities. Now the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty is coming, and there is an urgent need for funds for construction. I can guarantee that the imperial court can definitely gather money to successfully build the new Shu Road in 50 years, no, 30 years."


    "Thirty years, even three years, I can''t wait, nor can the people in Shu!" Feng Guan said angrily. The people in Sichuan and Shu have been waiting for thousands of years and are eager to see it. Now let them wait another 30 years. I''m afraid he will be scolded by the people when he returns to Sichuan and Shu.


    "Your Majesty is also requested to make decisions for the minister!" Hanzhong Ling had an idea and asked Li Shimin for orders.


    "Your Majesty, think twice!"


    All officials also asked for orders.


    Li Shimin can''t help falling into a dilemma. Once three million Guan is invested in the construction of the Tang Dynasty, it goes without saying that the benefits will be generated. However, the strategic position of the new Shu Road is equally important.


    "Tell your majesty, there is a saying in Mohism that good steel should be used on the blade. Whether it is to govern the Yellow River, compulsory education and build brick roads, it can be promoted step by step, while the new Shu road must be completed at one go. In the future, there will be no chance to raise three million yuan at a time without affecting the national economy and the people''s livelihood." Merton solemnly saluted Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin was suddenly surprised. According to the current situation of Datang, it can be said that the annual Treasury revenue has its own purpose and can''t move much money at all. Now, the expected surplus of cast iron money is almost out of thin air. Even if it is used, it will not affect Datang''s established plan. Of course, the Treasury revenue will increase in the future, I''m afraid there will be more expenditure. At that time, 3 million will be used, I''m afraid it''s not easy either.


    Thinking of this, Li Shimin made up his mind and said, "since Mo Aiqing came out for the new Shu Road, his surplus will naturally be used on the new Shu Road."


    "Your Majesty,...." Yu Zhining wanted to advise again.


    "If he has the ability to earn three million more for the court, how can he has the final say?" Li Shimin will oppose one army.


    Suddenly, the Confucian officials in Manchuria were speechless and contented to swallow the bitter fruit silently. They wholeheartedly surrounded the mojiazi and were defeated by the mojiazi again, which made them feel a little depressed.


    "Mohist is worthy of Mohist!"


    All the civil servants took a deep breath and looked at the Tai Chi hall. The young figure had a feeling of towering.

 Chapter 1221

    "The new Shu Road is about to start, with a budget of 3 million yuan!"


    After the great court meeting, the new Shu Road Plan swept Chang''an like a hurricane.


    "The Shu Road is difficult and difficult to climb to the sky. It is not vain. The Shu Road should have been built long ago, and the Millennium dream of the people of Sichuan and Shu will finally come true." businessmen in a land of Sichuan and Shu are excited to tears. From Chang''an to Hanzhong, the three hundred mile Shu Road will take about ten days. Once the new Shu Road is built, one day will be enough to pass, the time will be greatly shortened, and the whole journey can be transported by vehicles and horses, This is a great blessing for business travel.


    The people in Shu naturally care about the construction of the new Shu Road, while more people in Chang''an focus on the huge wealth of 3 million yuan.


    "Three million Guan, I''m afraid it''s going to empty the Treasury!" everyone smacked his tongue.


    "No, it doesn''t cost the State Treasury a penny to build a new Shu Road." a well-informed merchant sold Guanzi road.


    "How could this be possible? Could it be that the three million Guan came from the strong wind." the people shook their heads and didn''t believe it.


    The merchant nodded proudly and said, "it can be said that the three million Guan came out of thin air, which was obtained by Mozi."


    "Turning iron into gold!" the people were stunned. They only heard that a liar turned stone into gold to deceive people. They had not heard of turning iron into gold. If it hadn''t involved the Mohist family, they might have really thought that they had met a liar. No matter how magical things could have happened to Mohist family.


    "Iron money!"


    When the people of Chang''an heard how the three million Guan came, they exclaimed one after another.


    "That''s great. Datang really needs iron money. I''m selling department stores. Sometimes when goods are sold for a penny, they lose money, and selling two cents is too expensive. No one buys them. If people buy two for three cents, they don''t want to buy one more. Many times the business is yellow. If they have fifty cents or one dime iron money, it''s too convenient," sighed a department store vendor.


    Many merchants nodded one after another, and they often encountered such difficulties. Datang can buy many things for a penny. It is very inconvenient to adjust the price of a penny every time. If there is iron money, everyone can accept the price adjustment of a dime and two dimes.


    Even if someone knows that the imperial court will make a lot of money by casting iron money, no one has any opinion about it. After all, the emergence of iron money is a happy situation.


    "Mozi is worthy of the title of God of wealth! He found the shortcomings of the currency of the Tang Dynasty twice in a row and made up for it perfectly." an old man praised.


    Everyone nodded. The first shortage of Datang currency was that it was too troublesome to convert silver and copper coins. Mojiazi took the opportunity to issue silver notes between 100 Wen and one Wen, which made mojiacun bank famous and gain a firm foothold.


    The second shortage of currency in the Tang Dynasty is iron money, which is inconvenient for people to trade. Mojiazi took advantage of the trend to launch the iron money with the lowest value, but the silver note is not real money. Every time the mojiacun bank issues one or two silver notes, it will deposit one or two silver in the silver Treasury, but the iron money is not. It is real money, but it can be used directly.


    "Three million yuan! Even the national treasury doesn''t have so much money. The Mexican family raised it so easily."


    All the people who heard of it marveled at the endless ink skills of Mojia village. What''s more amazing is that Mojia Zi can always apply the ink skills of Mojia village to the extreme.


    "The construction of the new Shu Road has changed the thousands of years'' history of no access to cars in Shu, and iron money will benefit all the people. This will go down in history and be revealed!" Yan shigu returned home, took out the thousands of worries he had saved and couldn''t bear to drink, and drank them down.


    Nowadays, the prohibition order is under the Tang Dynasty. All the breweries do not produce Baijiu, but the old wine they keep is one bottle and one bottle, especially the solution of thousand worries.


    It''s not just the plan of the new Shu Road. Mojiazi proposed to use stainless steel to cast iron coins to fill the gap of low Tang currency. One of the secret skills of hydraulic stamping is worth 3 million yuan, which is worth a special book and a name in history. Immediately, Yan shigu wrote like a God and recorded today''s meeting in history books.


    "Iron money!"


    For a moment, everyone looked forward to the news about iron money.


    "Click, click, click!"


    Driven by the strong water stand, the huge hydraulic stamping machine keeps running.


    "This is the secret of hydraulic stamping!"


    In the Mohist village, Zhang Liang, the Minister of industry and Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, accompanied Li Shimin to inspect the hydraulic stamping machine, the most important part of making iron coins. Looking at the behemoth in front of him, Li Shimin couldn''t help exclaiming.


    In the past few years, the Mohist way of machine has become more and more sophisticated. It is not only more and more large, but also extremely exquisite. Driven by water power, it can operate at a high speed without manpower. At this time, Li Shimin believes that what Merton said to reduce the cost of money casting, which is indeed too much less than manpower.


    "Your Majesty is wise. This machine was originally made of stainless steel tableware in Mojia village. It was just slightly modified to make iron coin templates. Once the imperial court determines it, Mojia village will immediately mass produce hydraulic stamping machines for the Ministry of the people to cast money." Merton explained.


    "Satisfied, how can you be dissatisfied?" Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, couldn''t help smiling bitterly.


    Money casting is a matter of cooperation between the Ministry of civil affairs and the Ministry of industry. Every year, a batch of copper money and silver will flow into the people, which is also a valuable income of the national treasury. However, the traditional money casting is a blacksmith, stove and mold. The workshop is smoky and the blacksmith''s face is dark, so he can''t bear to step into it.


    On the contrary, the workshops in Mojia village are almost clean, and the craftsmen are clean and tidy. In terms of efficiency, they are far better than the iron coins in Mojia village. Dozens of beautifully made iron coins will be spit out every time. Soon, the iron coins in front of everyone will pile up


    "This is the iron coin made in Mojia village!" accompanied by Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, picked up a sample coin and frowned.


    "Good!" Merton nodded.


    "Your Majesty, please see?" Zhang Liang did not speak, but handed the sample money to Li Shimin.


    "Why is there no square hole!" Li Shimin took it and frowned.


    It has to be said that the sample money made by Mojia village is indeed exquisite, each of which is Cheng guangwaliang, and the words Kaiyuan Tongbao on the sample money are clear, which is much better than the copper money forged by the Ministry of civil affairs before. However, the traditional Kaiyuan Tongbao is round and square, while the sample money made by the hydraulic stamping machine in Mojia village is only a round coin without square holes.


    Merton explained: "Your Majesty, the reason why the Kaiyuan Tongbao forged by the imperial court is round and square is convenient for people to carry. However, it takes time and labor to make money, which increases the cost, and the cost of making perforated iron money with hydraulic stamping machine is 10% higher than that of non perforated iron money."


    "What else?" Li Shimin was surprised.


    "Moreover, the main purpose of iron money is to circulate. People only need to keep a small amount of iron money without carrying and storing a large amount. Weichen believes that the non porous iron money is the most appropriate kind of money. Moreover, everyone knows that a Kaiyuan Tongbao is a Wen money, but the iron money is not. It needs to be made into five corners and one corner. The original square hole can be printed with the value at a glance." Merton explained.


    Li Shimin looked at the sample money in his hand and found that there was a clear pentagonal character in the center of the sample money.


    "That is to say, two pentagonal coins are equal to one Kaiyuan Tongbao." Li Shimin said solemnly. In the currency system of the Tang Dynasty, there has never been such a conversion method, but directly exchange 1000 Wen for one or two silver. As for silver coins, it is too cumbersome for the people to convert by themselves.


    "Yes, not only that, but also one pentagonal coin can be changed into five one dimes. In this way, it can greatly facilitate the daily use of the people." Merton nodded.


    Li Shimin nodded. In this way, almost all the prices among the people can be estimated with iron money. He turned over the back of the pentagonal money, and suddenly his eyes were frozen.


    "This is... This is the supreme emperor!" Zhang Liang and Tang Jian noticed the abnormality and couldn''t help exclaiming.


    On the back of the coin, there is a clear side head, which is the lifelike head of the supreme emperor.


    "Merton, you''re so brave. It''s a crime of disrespect that you dare to print the head of the supreme emperor on iron money." Zhang Liang scolded loudly. Needless to say, it''s from the handwriting of Mohist. No one in the world has such painting skills and courage except him.


    Merton admitted that he was single: "Lord Zhang is too fussy. There is nothing unusual about printing the king''s head on coins. Persian silver coins from the Silk Road usually print the king''s head. When I saw that the back of the non perforated iron coin was empty, I wanted to print the emperor''s head on it so that the world could admire it and let the emperor''s dignity spread forever. If your majesty thought it was impossible, I could change it Become a peony or plum blossom. "


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "no, the supreme emperor has worked hard for his country all his life. He really deserves this honor."


    Tang Jian could not help but look at the Mohist school. The Mohist school has repeatedly caused trouble, but the holy family has not declined. His ability to guess the heart of the emperor is extremely extraordinary. After all, the emperor has passed away, and his gratitude and resentment with his majesty has passed away. Now there is only kindness left. Li Shimin printed the emperor on the five jiao coin, and the world will only remember his Majesty''s filial piety.


    "With your Majesty''s permission, if you don''t print a batch of gold coins and print your Majesty''s head in the future, so that the world can see your Majesty''s face." Zhang Liang flattered.


    Merton looked at Zhang Liang, shook his head and said, "Lord Zhang doesn''t know. People living in the world taboo carving and imaging. According to the research of doctors, there are all kinds of wonders in the world. There will even be two similar people thousands of miles away. If someone pretends to be your Majesty with the head on the coin, I''m afraid there will be trouble."


    In ancient times, it was difficult to find out the existence of similar people without photos. In later generations, various imitation shows emerged one after another, which simply confused the fake with the real. If Li Shimin''s head is really revealed, I''m afraid it will really be used by people with a heart.


    "The minister made a mistake!"


    Zhang Liang suddenly blushed. He didn''t expect that he flattered the horse''s leg.


    "Your Majesty, the imperial court forged iron money itself for the convenience of the people. Since there is no hole for the convenience of the people, it is inevitable to use it. As far as I know, the coins in Persia and other places are indeed non hole, and printed with the head of the king. Since there is a precedent, there is nothing wrong with ink offering wine." Tang Jian, the Minister of the people, coughed and relieved Zhang Liang.


    Li Shimin nodded. The production of non porous iron coins is really exquisite. In addition, if they cast iron coins to raise money for the construction of Shu Road, the cost of more than 10% is not a small amount. For the new Shu Road, it is not so important to have holes and no holes. As for printing Li Yuan''s head, it is icing on the cake, and Li Shimin will not refuse.


    "But the material of iron money is iron. If it is made into non porous iron money in order to save cost, will it be criticized! I think the imperial court is exploiting the people." Zhang Liang has just been disgraced, dissatisfied and made a bad way again.


    Li Shimin immediately frowned. He himself attached great importance to reputation and hesitated when he heard that he might be criticized by people all over the world.


    Merton didn''t know Li Shimin''s mind. He patted his chest and promised: "This matter is simple. There are two solutions. One is to use copper zinc alloy to make pentagonal coins. Zinc ore is not very useful in Datang. The cost is very low, which is lower than the price of iron, but it needs 30% copper to make it. The cost increases a lot. One is to use stainless steel to make pentagonal coins. After copper plating, the cost increases very little."


    Zinc ore is widely used in later generations. However, in the society of the Tang Dynasty, the use of zinc ore has not been developed. It is only reused in a small amount in Mojia village, which has no much value at all. It is often idle when other minerals are mined. Merton only makes rational use of it. As for copper plating in Mojia village, the process is mature, and it is easy to apply it to pentagonal iron money.


    "What about the angle iron?" Zhang Liang said embarrassed when he saw that Merton could easily dissolve the hole he had dug.


    Merton laughed and retorted without hesitation: "a dime is the smallest monetary unit with the lowest value, while stainless steel is also valuable. I''m afraid no one will criticize the use of stainless steel for a dime. It doesn''t take much effort at all."


    Li Shimin and Tang Jian nodded at the same time. The value of a corner iron is the smallest, and stainless steel is more than enough. No one will say more at all.


    Li Shimin pondered for a while, and finally chose iron money and copper plating. First, it can be preserved for a long time. Second, copper plating can not be criticized by the world after all. Finally, the purpose of casting money in chaotang is to raise funds to build a new Shu Road, so it is natural to maximize the interests.


    Finally, Li Shimin decided on the sample money of the iron coin. All the iron coins were made of non perforated iron coins. The side portrait of Emperor Li Yuan was printed on the back of the pentagonal iron coin, and the whole money was plated with copper. The plank road of the Shu Road was printed on the back of the stainless steel pentagonal iron coin to commemorate the difficulty of building the Shu Road.


    At this point, the sample money of the iron coin was officially finalized, and the iron coin can be cast at any time. Once the iron coin appears on the market, it will be the date of the construction of the new Shu Road.

 Chapter 1222

    With the approval of the sample money of iron money, the industrial machines in Mojia village started immediately and built a number of hydraulic stamping machines for the Ministry of civil affairs in the shortest time.


    "Now everything is ready, only the east wind!" Tang Jian nodded with satisfaction when he saw the stamping machine in front of him.


    "East wind?" Merton was stunned and stared at Tang Jian.


    "Nature is the raw material. The biggest cost of making money is the raw material. As long as there are enough raw materials, you can make as much money as you want." Tang Jian said with a smile. Before, the raw material for making money was gold, silver and copper. Each of these was valuable, and there was no inflation. It was not as cheap as paper money in later generations. If you dare to print indiscriminately, you might have trouble.


    "Raw materials!"


    Merton suddenly realized that what Tang Jian said was stainless steel. He patted his chest and promised: "don''t worry, Lord Shangshu. Mojia village will fully supply stainless steel to the Ministry of the people for casting iron money."


    The raw material for making iron coins is stainless steel, which can only be produced in Mojia village. Naturally, Mojia village needs to provide raw materials.


    "Then there will be Lao Mo Hou." Tang Jian smiled and handed Merton a purchase list.


    Merton looked down and raised his eyebrows. He didn''t expect that the Ministry of the people needed so much stainless steel.


    "Lao mohou bothered. Iron money should be spread to the whole Tang Dynasty. The first batch must be enough to be enough." Tang Jian explained.


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Shang, Mojia village will not delay the casting of iron money." Merton promised that the construction of Shu Road is a top priority, and the iron money was cast one day earlier, and the Shu Road was built one day earlier.


    "What? The Ministry of Civil Affairs ordered so many stainless steel!" Uncle Zhang exclaimed when Merton put the list of the Ministry of civil affairs in front of Lao Zhang.


    So much stainless steel accounts for almost 70% of the production of Mojia village. If all of them are given to the Ministry of the people, it is bound to affect the production of stainless steel tableware in Mojia village. You know, the current stainless steel tableware is popular in the Tang Dynasty. It is a gold rush every day. If all of them are given to the Ministry of the people, it will certainly affect the production of Mojia village.


    "Uncle Zhang, if stainless steel is not enough, then continue to expand production. In the future, stainless steel is the mainstream in the world. Cut off the pig iron and crude steel business in Mojia village. If it is not enough, continue to buy iron from the market and spare no effort to produce stainless steel and special steel." Merton said decisively.


    Lao Zhang regretted, "that''s the only way."


    To tell the truth, with the brand of Mojia village, the goods produced in Mojia village have made a lot of profits. However, with the upgrading of Mojia village products from generation to generation, many profitable goods have been cut mercilessly. Unexpectedly, even the pig iron and crude steel business will be abandoned.


    When the news that Mojia village gave up the pig iron and crude steel business came, the industrial corridor between Mojia village and Chang''an City cheered. Each industrial upgrading of Mojia village will leave a large number of market gaps and transfer new technologies, which benefited the industrial corridor a lot.


    Although the technology of workshops in the industrial corridor is not as good as that in Mojia village, they are much better than ordinary workshops. At the same time, they are also cooperative suppliers of Mojia village. Mojia village eats meat and drinks soup in the industrial corridor. They are interdependent and cooperate with each other. This is the tacit pattern formed by Mojia village and the industrial corridor all the time.


    "By the way, it is said that Mojia village is supplying stainless steel to the Ministry of civil affairs and is purchasing a large number of iron materials, which is a big business!" at the same time, a business opportunity spread widely in Chang''an City, which immediately caused the fluctuation of iron price in Chang''an city.


    At first, no one cared about this fluctuation. After all, every big move in Mojia village would have a lot of waves. However, with the continuous growth of iron price, someone finally smelled something wrong.


    "The price of iron has soared by 50% in just over ten days." a blacksmith said with a grim face.


    "70% of the iron materials in Chang''an city are controlled by.................." a merchant vaguely pointed to the shop of Chang sun''s house.


    For a long time, most of the iron materials in Guanzhong have been under the control of the changsun family. However, with the rise of Mojia village, Mojia gradually obtained nearly 20% of the share by using technical advantages and exchanging machines for iron ore, which ensured the supply of iron and steel in Mojia village, and the rest is in the hands of retail investors.


    Most of today''s iron materials are used to refine stainless steel and supply the Ministry of the people to make money. I''m afraid there is only one possibility for the iron price to rise this time, changsun family!


    "The Chang Sun family and the Mohist family!"


    Many people took a deep breath. The two giants fought against each other again. Chang''an city is destined to rise again, but they can''t participate in all this.


    "What does the Chang Sun family want?"


    Merton frowned and drank coldly.


    Iron and steel is the food of industry. The most important thing for the Mohists to develop is iron and steel. Most of the iron and steel in Guanzhong is in the hands of the changsun family. The changsun family is the leader of iron ores everywhere. Now the iron ore in Chang''an city suddenly soars. It is obvious that the changsun family is playing tricks behind it.


    "Lao Zhang thought that the changsun family took advantage of the imperial court''s casting of iron money and the rise of iron price to make a profit. It was understandable at first, but now it seems that the changsun family has greater ambition. It goes up continuously. If it goes up again, there is no profit space in the Mojia village. It is simply that the Mojia village will work for the changsun family again." Lao Zhang said angrily.


    The changsun family took advantage of the fire! Taking advantage of the full supply of steel in Mojia village, the Ministry of the people was short of cast steel, and even took advantage of the iron.


    "No!" Merton shook his head and said, "what the changsun family wants is definitely more than this short-sighted profiteering. I''m afraid the changsun family is Xiang Zhuang''s sword dance aimed at Peigong!"


    "Pei Gong! Is it the secret skill of stainless steel that Hou ye said!" Lao Zhang was suddenly surprised.


    "That''s right! I think the changsun family had always coveted the secret technology of steelmaking in Mojia village. They used to blackmail under the pretext of cutting off the supply of raw materials. Now, as soon as the secret technology of stainless steel comes out, there must be no market for ordinary steel. The changsun family is repeating the old technology!" Merton said.


    "It''s too easy for the changsun family to think. I Lao Zhang will place an order with other mines to supply more iron materials!" Lao Zhang made a quick decision.


    The reason why the Mohist village occupies 20% of the share depends on signing a contract in advance and exchanging Mohist machines for iron materials, which can ensure the cost of the Mohist village. I''m afraid it''s useless to place more orders, let alone the changsun family. How can we not expect this step. There was a faint feeling in Merton''s heart.


    Sure enough, there was no double blessing and no single disaster. The mines cooperating with Mojia village had problems one after another, either delaying the delivery or asking for a price increase. More frankly, the mine owner said that even the price increase could not supply the full amount of iron materials, and at most provided Mojia Village with enough iron materials for the people to make money.


    "It''s too deceptive to break bridges across rivers and raise prices on land!" Lao Zhang said angrily.


    Although Mojia village has contracts with the iron ore plant, most of these contracts are about to expire. Even if the iron ore plant supplies all the money, it can only maintain the minbu to cast money, and most of the mining machines in each mine have been laid out. At this time, the role of Mojia Village is weakened to the lowest. No wonder these mines have the confidence to collude with the changsun family.


    Now there are only two ways in front of Mojia village. Either hand over the secret technology of stainless steel in exchange for iron material, or accept the high iron price to let the changsun family control the lifeline of Mojia village. The changsun family eats meat and the Mojia village drinks soup.

 Chapter 1223

    "Fifty percent, sixty percent, seventy percent..."


    The iron price in Guanzhong is crazy. It has been rising continuously. In the twinkling of an eye, it has risen by more than 70%, and there is still no stopping trend.


    "Not to mention the Guanzhong iron price, the iron price of the whole Tang Dynasty is the same. The Mojia village is either rich or let them buy high-priced iron." the eldest housekeeper of changsun mansion laughed.


    "Yes, all along, Mojia village has made a lot of money by virtue of ink technology. We have been working hard to earn some coolie money at the risk of mining. What an injustice!" a Shandong mine owner was in a good mood. He was originally an iron supplier of Mojia village and made a lot of money by relying on Mojia village. Unfortunately, people are not enough to swallow the elephant, and he is even jealous of the profits of Mojia village, The changsun family took the lead in promoting the price rise of iron materials, and this person responded immediately.


    "No, it''s not that I don''t want to supply Mohist iron materials, but that my iron mine has just collapsed and lost a lot of money. Several mines have been abandoned. There''s really nothing I can do!" a Henan mine owner pretended.


    "You''re really a hypocrite. I''m a real villain. This time, if the Mohists want cheap iron materials, they can exchange stainless steel secret skills. That''s a good thing for making money every day." said a Huainan road mine owner.


    The eldest grandson laughed and said: "Whether you want to raise the price of iron or stainless steel, we have the same purpose to force Mojia village to obey. This time, the imperial court has to raise 3 million yuan for the construction of a new Shu Road. At least 6 million yuan for casting iron, and 2 million yuan for iron alone. How much profit can we not let Mojia village alone."


    The owner of Shandong mine nodded and said, "yes, Mojia village can''t raise 2 million pieces of iron in any case. In the end, he still asked us to cast money. We''ll divide the fat meat!"


    They looked at each other and laughed. Originally, they had a conflict of interest and could not unite at all. However, the interests of cast iron money and stainless steel were so great that they put aside their previous stereotypes and finally joined hands to hold the throat of Mojia village.


    "Young master, the major iron mines have raised their prices one after another. Now the iron price has more than doubled, but even so, they still sell in limited quantities." Lao Zhang came to report worried.


    This time, the major iron mines are united. They may not dare to limit chaotang cast iron money, but it is difficult for Mojia village to obtain a large amount of iron, but it hurts the pain point of Mojia village and makes Mojia village like a lump in the throat.


    "What about the mine that signed the contract with Mojia village?" Merton frowned.


    "Those villains who are greedy for profit follow the trend and raise prices. Even the iron materials we ordered before are not given in breach of contract." Lao Zhang said angrily.


    "Remember to them first. When the storm is over, they won''t be able to eat and walk around." Merton snorted coldly. There are ordering contracts signed between Mojia village and major iron mines. If these mines don''t perform the contracts, they''ll wait to lose money!


    "But it can''t be hydrolyzed near the fire. Mojia village now needs to supply a large amount of stainless steel to the Ministry of civil affairs. Its own supply is fundamentally insufficient. At present, it can only use the iron reserves of Mojia village, but even so, it can''t last long." The cast iron money of the people''s Republic of China is a bottomless hole. In addition, the demand for iron in Mojia village is also extremely huge. The iron reserves that originally seemed to be considerable in Mojia village are suddenly stretched.


    Merton snorted coldly, "now it depends on who can hold up the Mojia village and the iron ore owner."


    It''s hard for Mojia village and those iron ore miners to suffer if the iron price is too high. You know, mining costs a lot every day. If the iron price is too high, there will be a lot of iron surplus in the hands of iron ore miners. They don''t have the ability to turn iron into gold.


    "Bar up!"


    "Mojia village and the iron ore mine owner are fighting!"


    This commercial war soon spread all over Datang. Now, Mojia village has the largest steelmaking plant in Datang. The annual output of steel accounts for 40% of Datang''s steel, and it is the best quality steel. The annual demand for iron ore is extremely huge. Now, Mojia village stands firm and does not buy Iron. Naturally, other blacksmiths reduce their procurement due to the impact of high iron price, and the iron output of Datang suddenly appears To the rest.


    However, even so, those miners still insist on raising iron prices and do not reduce prices against strong inventories.


    "You say, is it mojiazi who can''t hold it first, or iron ore miners who can''t hold it first?" merchants in Chang''an City speculated one after another.


    "It''s reasonable to say that Mojia village needs a large amount of iron materials every year. The iron ore mine owner can be said to have strangled the lifeblood of Mojia village. If others are determined, they can only obediently obey. However, it''s Mojia village! Mojia Zi won''t watch his efforts go away." A common people in Chang''an supported Mojia village. After all, Mojia Zi has created too many miracles. Many people have blind confidence in Mojia Zi.


    "This time, led by the changsun family, almost all the iron ore miners participated in the price increase. For these miners, they can''t stand it. It''s a big deal to restore the iron price without loss. The iron ore miners are in an invincible position. Even if Mojia village survives this pass this time, I''m afraid it will be exploited by the iron ore miners. From this point of view, the iron ore miners have won." Many merchants see the interests at a glance and are optimistic about iron ore miners.


    Almost everyone is paying attention to this rare commercial war, especially iron, which has always been related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood.


    "So the iron ore mine owner is sitting on the Diaoyutai?" in the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin''s mouth showed a taste of playing.


    "Tell your majesty, iron prices have been rising continuously, affecting people''s daily use. Should the imperial court intervene?" Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, frowned.


    The status of iron is so important. This iron price war not only attracted the attention of the people, but also attracted the attention of the imperial court. Tang Jian''s move was intended to help Mohist Zi. After all, the plight of Mohist village was caused by helping the people to make money.


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "did this ever affect the people''s money?"


    Tang Jian shook his head and said, "no, now Mojia village gives priority to supply the cast iron money of the Ministry of the people. The casting of the cast iron money is quite smooth, but according to my estimation, Mojia village won''t last long?"


    Li Shimin laughed and said, "since Merton doesn''t move, it means that Merton has a backhand. I''m very curious about how Merton turned the tables."


    Tang Jian said, "I believe the wisdom of offering wine with ink can certainly resolve this disaster. However, the Mohist village has a great cause and can withstand this storm. However, the people of thousands of households in the world are not. They simply don''t have much ability to withstand this storm. As far as I know, the iron price soared this time, the folk iron trade decreased greatly, and the people''s life was affected."


    "What do you mean?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows when he heard Tang Jian''s words


    "I think it''s time to implement the salt and iron official camp, so that the people all over the world can avoid the storm of iron price dispute and let the people all over the world live and work in peace and contentment." Tang Jian said proudly.


    No one thought that Tang Jian had a more important intention, that is, the salt and iron official camp. Recently, the Ministry of civil affairs is too short of money. The way Tang Jian wants to solve the financial difficulties of the imperial court is the salt and iron official camp. Now the iron price is too high and the people''s resentment is overwhelming. The Ministry of civil affairs just takes this opportunity to intervene in the salt and iron official camp.


    No one could have imagined that there would be a third party force in the situation of this iron price dispute, that is, the Ministry of civil affairs.


    The snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman gains!

 Chapter 1224

    "Salt and iron official camp!"


    Li Shimin can''t help it. Salt and iron official camps have existed since ancient times, which is a powerful tool for the imperial court to increase fiscal revenue. The most famous salt and iron official camp is the salt and iron debate during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Although it is controversial, it can still be implemented in the face of huge interests.


    "Do you know how much controversy has been caused by the return of Yantie official camp?" Li Shimin frowned.


    The salt and iron official camp in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty caused a great storm. After the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the salt and iron official camp was abandoned and erected several times. It can be imagined that the struggle was fought. Later, in the Sui Dynasty, the national strength was strong, and there was no need for the salt and iron official camp to collect money. The Tang Dynasty inherited the Sui Dynasty system, and the salt and iron private sector was also implemented.


    Tang Jian nodded solemnly and said, "if it had been before, Wei Chen would not have rashly proposed salt and iron official camp. If all industries in the Tang Dynasty prosper, the imperial government is in urgent need of money, and Wei Chen really can''t!"


    Li Shimin sighed when he heard the speech. Although the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is booming, there are too many places to spend money. The finance is really tight, and the salt and iron official camp is really a big temptation.


    Coupled with the repeated commercial wars between iron ore and Mojia village, the iron price fluctuated violently, affecting the national economy and the people''s livelihood, and finally gave the imperial court the reason to intervene in salt and iron.


    "You can''t kill a chicken with an ox knife. I don''t need to do it. Merton will teach these mine owners a lesson. The salt and iron official camp involves a lot, and the matter will be discussed from the long time." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "Ah!"


    Tang Jian accidentally glanced at Li Shimin. He didn''t expect that Li Shimin was so confident in the Mohist family. In his opinion, if the imperial court didn''t intervene, the Mohist family wouldn''t have a chance to turn over.


    "Don''t worry! The Mexican family has never lost the commercial war!" Li Shimin said confidently.


    If those mine owners dare to engage in such a storm at ordinary times, Li Shimin will certainly not let them go. Now Merton fights with these mine owners again, Li Shimin has the fun of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. Moreover, according to his past experience, Merton always gives him unexpected surprises whenever the Mojia village meets a desperate situation.


    "I''ll wait and see." Tang Jian smiled and covered up his regret.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, with the continuous growth of iron price, Mojia village has not made any action. It has neither bought high-priced iron nor the intention to negotiate with them with stainless steel secret skills. It has been using the inventory of Mojia village to resist.


    "Tell me, childe! The inventory of Mojia village will not last long. When there is no iron in Mojia village, Mojia will surely give in." in changsun''s house, the housekeeper of changsun reported to changsun with a proud face.


    "Hahaha, Mozi, how long can you be proud this time? This time, you offend the whole iron line in the world." the eldest Sun said proudly with a look on his face.


    There is fierce competition among iron shops in the world, but mojiazi is the dominant one. Relying on its technical advantages, it wantonly buys low-cost iron materials. After a round of steel-making furnace in Mojia village, it turns out to be high-priced refined steel and sells a good price. Especially the special steel produced in Mojia village is as rare and precious as gold. It sells the iron price at a price comparable to gold, This makes the world iron line which is not red eyed.


    Now the Mohist village finally provoked public anger. He just pushed behind his back, and the iron companies all over the world gathered to fight back against the Mohist family. For so many years, his fight with the Mohist family ended badly. This time, he finally had the opportunity to step on the Mohist family in person.


    "Keep staring, don''t let the Mo family have any chance to get cheap iron materials." the eldest sun Chong sneered.


    The eldest grandson housekeeper patted his chest and promised, "young master, don''t worry. Villains can guarantee with their heads. No iron shop will fall to the Mexican family."


    Led by the changsun family, who dares to violate the alliance of the world''s iron industry? Besides, the iron materials needed by the Mohists are not a bit. If someone secretly sells the iron materials to the Mohists, they can''t escape their eyes.


    Chang sun Chong nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly a servant came in a hurry and came to report.


    "Young master, master, please!"


    The Chamberlain of changsun changed his face and looked at changsun Chong. This time, changsun Chong privately cooperated with the world iron bank to increase the price and force the palace Mojia village, but without changsun Wuji''s nod.


    The eldest son said to his face, "go down and work! I''ll see my father."


    Chang sun Chong came to the living room in the front yard, saw that Chang sun Wuji was waiting for him, and came forward to salute.


    Changsun Wuji took a deep look at changsun and said helplessly, "my father thought that after you married Gaoyang, the gratitude and resentment between you and mojiazi had disappeared. I didn''t think you couldn''t let go."


    The eldest sun Chong said in amazement, "what does Father mean? This time, the child is for the eldest sun''s family, not for his personal gratitude and resentment."


    "For the sake of Chang sun''s family?" Chang sun Wuji frowned.


    Chang sun Chong nodded and said, "after the child''s marriage, his father handed over the household chores to him, including the iron line. However, he found that the iron line originally from Chang sun''s family was much worse than before. The source of all this was the rise of Mojia village."


    Changsun Wuji sighed helplessly. A family needs huge money to support it. Other families have been operating for thousands of years and have long been deeply rooted. However, the changsun family has just been revived for about 20 years. The foundation is shallow. The railway is the main economic source for the prosperity of the changsun family. However, the rise of Mojia village and the high steel-making furnace overlooks the whole Guanzhong railway, The original market advantage of changsun family was immediately crushed by the technical advantage of Mojia village.


    "If it''s just like this, the child won''t act rashly, and the changsun family can live well by selling some iron tools. However, in this ink technology exhibition, the Mexican family displayed stainless steel, and frankly said that the future steel world is stainless steel. In the future, the changsun family can''t even sell iron tools. It''s not that the child is reckless, but that the Mexican family deceives people too much." the changsun shouted coldly.


    Changsun Wuji nodded slightly. Tiexing is the economic pillar of the changsun family. If stainless steel is popular in the future, the income of the changsun family will decrease sharply and the interests of the changsun family will be seriously damaged. From this point of view, changsun Chong has not done anything wrong.


    "Don''t be reckless about this. Iron is the foundation of the country. If the price of iron rises and falls sharply, it will certainly attract the attention of the imperial court. At that time, the changsun family can''t afford it." although changsun Wuji doesn''t know the plan of Tang Jian''s salt and iron official camp, he has been immersed in the imperial court for many years. He knows the sensitivity of iron and gently mentions changsun Chong.


    "My father can rest assured that my child is only measured. Now the iron price in Datang has only doubled, and Mojia village has to buy high-priced iron materials. In this way, even if the Mojia son doesn''t disclose the secret technology of stainless steel, changsun iron can return to the prosperity of the past." changsun Chong said proudly. The changsun family is the most direct beneficiary of this price increase. In any case, he is in an invincible position.


    Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "this is the case for the time being, but you should explain it to Princess Gaoyang so as not to cause misunderstanding."


    "Princess Gaoyang?"


    Hearing the speech, Chang sun Chong''s face flashed a trace of helplessness, but he still arched his hand and said, "I understand."


    Chang sun Chong said goodbye to Chang sun Wuji and returned to the backyard, but he didn''t see the figure of Princess Gaoyang.


    "Where''s the princess?" the eldest son snapped.


    "The emperor''s Royal Highness has gone to the Temple Buddha," replied a gong Ying.


    "Go out again?" the eldest son rushed and his face suddenly blackened.


    Princess Gaoyang has been going out for fun for three days since she married her eldest son. Chang sun Chong thought that Princess Gaoyang had just left the palace and was more curious outside the palace, but she didn''t expect that Princess Gaoyang would intensify her efforts. She went out more and more frequently, almost rarely at home, and the husband and wife were almost strangers.

 Chapter 1225

    "You know you''re coming back!"


    It was not until nightfall that Gao Yang returned to Chang sun''s house. Chang sun Chong immediately looked dissatisfied. If it was an ordinary woman, Chang sun Chong would have been served by the family law. However, Princess Gao Yang was an imperial daughter, and he couldn''t do anything about her at all.


    Princess Gaoyang, who was still not enjoying herself, suddenly looked unlucky and snorted coldly: "you think this palace is rare to come back. Your changsun house has so many rules. If you don''t want this palace to come back, this palace will live in the Princess House rewarded by your father."


    When an ordinary princess gets married, the court often gives her the princess''s house, and Princess Gaoyang is no exception. However, the changsun family is the first relative of the Tang Dynasty, with high power and the empress changsun. Princess Gaoyang can only live in the changsun''s house like an ordinary woman and salute her mother-in-law every day.


    "If you are not afraid of your Majesty''s blame, you can have a try!" the eldest son said with an embarrassed face.


    The two of them immediately deadlocked there. Chang sun Chong needs the Royal identity of Princess Gaoyang to this end. The wealth of Chang sun''s family and his separation from Princess Gaoyang will certainly make him a laughing stock of the whole city again.


    Princess Gaoyang herself knows that she is a tool used by Li Shimin to win over the changsun family. Only by winning the favor of Li Shimin can she get the holy family. If she leaves the changsun family and lives in the princess''s house, I''m afraid Li Shimin will immediately know that she and changsun Chong have made such a big noise just after they got married. In addition, she is a woman''s family who goes out to make a public appearance, Li Shimin will certainly dislike it.


    Chang sun Chong took a deep breath and reluctantly explained: "this time, I''m targeting the Mexican family not because of personal gratitude and resentment, but because of the future of Chang sun''s house. Since you married into Chang sun''s house, you naturally integrated with Chang sun''s house. I hope you can understand."


    Princess Gaoyang didn''t believe it at all. She looked contemptuous and said, "it''s just self deception!"


    "How can I prove that you can believe it? Can''t you believe your efforts for your husband until the changsun mansion is down?" changsun stormed.


    Princess Gaoyang sneered and said, "even if what you said is true, do you think you can really beat the Mohist family. The Mohist family has never lost in the business war. In those years, the five surnames and seven hopes united and failed to make the Mohist family yield. How can a single changsun family do anything to defeat the Mohist family."


    Chang sun Chong Zhizhu said: "In those days, although the five surnames and seven hopes were powerful, many people in the world refused to accept them. Jiangnan aristocratic family was just one of them. They were finally broken by the Mohist family. However, this time, the whole iron industry opposed the Mohist family, let alone the iron is the lifeblood of the Mohist family. The lifeblood of the Mohist village, which is controlled by the major mine owners, let the Mohist village ride on their head. No one is surprised It''s tolerable. The dispute over interests will break out sooner or later. Chang sun''s house just pushed along with the water. This time, even the Mohists are powerless to return to heaven. "


    "I''m tired of going back to heaven?" Princess Gaoyang said with a smile. "Even I, a woman, know that the animals are still fighting, not to mention the Mohist family with superb means. The world knows that the Mohist family''s tricks emerge one after another. The palace wants to ask the son-in-law. In the face of the siege of the Chang sun mansion, has the Mohist family ever succumbed or made any countermeasures?"


    Chang sun Chong''s face suddenly sank. Princess Gaoyang''s words directly hit his biggest worry. Since Chang sun''s house united with the world''s mine owners to besiege Mojia village, Mojia Zi had no action at all. Instead, he had been supported by the inventory iron materials of Mojia village. He neither bought high-priced iron materials nor gave in to them, which made all the plans of Chang sun''s house come to naught.


    "The Mo family is already poor. As long as the changsun mansion holds the lifeblood of the Mo family village, the Mo family will succumb sooner or later." the changsun Chong gritted his teeth.


    Princess Gaoyang said, "in that case, the palace will make a bet with the son-in-law. As long as the son-in-law can beat the Mo family this time, the palace will stay in the changsun house. If the son-in-law is defeated, don''t interfere with the freedom of the palace."


    "OK! It''s a deal!" the eldest son rushed. He didn''t believe that he could be overturned by the Mohist family when he occupied an absolute advantage and controlled the lifeblood of the Mohist family.


    Princess Gaoyang said with a smile, "then the palace is waiting for the good news of the son-in-law!"


    Princess Gaoyang walked past her eldest son Chong with a smile, leaving a fragrance.


    The eldest sun rushed to his face and stretched out his hand. The eldest sun housekeeper hurriedly came forward and said, "what can I do for you, young master?"


    "Contact all iron shops immediately, and the price will rise by another half. I can''t give Mojia village one or two cheap iron materials. I don''t believe how much iron materials Mojia village can reserve." Chang sun Chong said angrily.


    "Yes!" the eldest grandson housekeeper answered immediately.


    As the iron price in Guanzhong rose by half again, all workshops were in an uproar, and a group of craftsmen turned their eyes to the leading Mojia village in the industry. Everyone knew that the iron price rise was aimed at Mojia village and waited for the Countermeasures of Mojia village.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, Mojia village was not moved at all and insisted on using its own reserve iron materials all the time.


    "The Mohist family hides so deep that a Mohist village reserves so much iron?"


    An iron man looks embarrassed. In addition to being used for his daily needs, the reserve iron materials in Mojia village also supply the imperial court with iron money. It can be said that the iron materials are consumed twice. Rao is so. Mojia village has insisted for more than a few months.


    If in the past, they used this move to deal with the mojiazi, and the reserves of the Mojia village could support at least more than a year, they would have nothing to do with the mojiazi.


    "What is iron material? What is more terrible is food. It is said that the granary of Mojia village is enough to feed all the staff of Mojia village for more than three years." a common man said proudly.


    "Take precautions, the Mohists are really not easy to deal with." a miner looked hard to understand. When they were in the business of their opponents, they found that the Mohists were so difficult to deal with.


    "Fortunately......" many mine owners said happily. Fortunately, they chose a clever node to deal with Mo Jiazi, otherwise they really couldn''t help him.


    "Don''t worry, the Mojia village is running out of water. Our success or failure depends on it." the eldest grandson housekeeper said in a deep voice.


    All the mine owners were shocked. Although there were a lot of iron reserves in Mojia village, they could not be inexhaustible. They believed that there must be little iron left in Mojia village, and Mojia village had to bear the supply of iron coins. At that time, mojiazi had only two ways to go, one was to buy high-priced iron materials, the other was to open the secret technology of stainless steel, Let other iron casting stainless steel supply stainless steel to the Ministry of the people.


    "Mr. Shang, should we urge Mo to sacrifice wine and not delay the important matter of forging iron coins by the imperial court, so as not to affect the construction of Shu Road?"


    The Ministry of civil affairs, a head of the Ministry of civil affairs, bowed down to Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs.


    "Urge?" Tang Jian frowned. "Did Mojia village ever lack the stainless steel and iron materials of the people?"


    The head of the Ministry of Civil Affairs said: "no, but the lower official heard that the folk rumor that the reserve iron material in Mojia village is about to run out and has not purchased iron material. It would be inappropriate if it affected the casting of iron coins."


    Tang Jian took a deep look at the head of the Ministry of the people in front of him and said, "since the ink sacrifice has not been less than the iron supply of the Ministry of the people, why should the Ministry of the people do anything? Tell the people behind you that the court will not interfere in business, but if you want to use the court to achieve your ulterior purpose, you can''t be a mud Bodhisattva."


    "Ah!" the head of the Ministry of civil affairs was flustered and quickly apologized: "I dare not, sir. Please forgive me."


    "Go down! Don''t be too fussy. I can trust the ability of Mo sacrificing wine. He dares to ensure that I have sufficient iron materials. Naturally, he won''t break his promise." Tang Jian waved his hand.


    "Yes!" the leader of the Ministry of democracy wiped the cold sweat on his head and went down in a gray way.


    Looking at the embarrassed figure of the head of the Ministry of people, Tang Jian said with a sneer: "the more you make trouble, the more I can promote the salt and iron official camp. I am a fisherman. How can I be used by you to kill with a knife!"


    After returning to his official residence, the head of the Ministry of Civil Affairs carefully thought about Tang Jian''s words. He couldn''t help but show a knowing smile and ordered a servant around him: "pass it on to those people and tell them that as long as the Mojia village reduces the supply of stainless steel materials for the Ministry of civil affairs, it will be the day when the Mojia Zi will give in."


    "Yes!" the servant was ordered to retreat.


    Soon, the iron materials of the whole Chang''an City soared again by more than 10%, and there was no market with price, and there was little iron material supply.


    "Mojia village can''t hold on!"


    When the steel supply of Mojia village was reduced and all efforts were made to ensure the casting of iron coins, everyone knew that the reserve iron of Mojia village was about to run out.

 Chapter 1226

    "Extra, extra, there is no iron material in Mojia village."


    The whole Chang''an city was almost quiet and staring at Mojia village.


    "Now there are only two ways in front of Mojia village, one is to buy iron at a high price, and the other is to disclose stainless steel secret skills in exchange for iron material contract." a merchant non analyzed.


    "No, in my opinion, mojiazi will not give in, otherwise there will be a second time for the first time. This time, mojiazi will bow his head. In the future, those iron ore mine owners can repeat their old skills and continuously raise prices by the same means next time." an old man said in a sentence.


    "So what? Even if the Mojia Zi is pinched by others, he can only obey." the merchant said lonely.


    "It''s impossible. I believe that Mojia Zi has a backhand! It''s impossible to lose in these intrigues." a young man said proudly. In the young generation, Mojia Zi can be said to be an absolute idol. They have never lost. They don''t believe that Mojia Zi will lose.


    Everyone gave a slight meal. This time, the reaction of mojiazi was really strange. It was obviously unreasonable to be indifferent to the siege of iron ore miners.


    "Yes, the Mohist school must have a backhand." they nodded one after another,


    Not only do the people in Chang''an believe that mojiazi will not be caught without a hand, but even the mine owners are dignified and ready to wait for mojiazi.


    However, even if they inquired again and again, there was still no news from Mojia village. When the people were gradually disappointed, a man with an accent of Sichuan and Sichuan came to the shop in Mojia village and asked, "is this the shop in Mojia village?"


    A Mohist boy hurried forward and said, "that''s right. I dare ask what this gentleman wants to buy."


    The man with Sichuan accent shook his head and said, "I don''t buy anything, but send things to Mojia village."


    After that, the man took down a bag of heavy goods from the car and put it in front of Mojia village. He left without looking back.


    "This is not right, sir..." the Mohist children hurriedly dissuaded, but the man quickly disappeared into the crowd.


    The children of the Mohists were not surprised and hurriedly checked the goods in the bag.


    "Iron!"


    The children of the Mohists stretched out their heads and were surprised to see that the bag was filled with iron materials urgently needed by the Mohist village. No wonder it was so heavy.


    "It''s really strange to give things to Mojia village for nothing!" the children of Mojia were foggy.


    However, the strange thing is not over yet. In half a day, many people with Sichuan accent sent iron materials to shops in Mojia village, and more than one shop, almost all shops in Mojia village, and soon Mojia village even harvested a lot of iron materials.


    "Sir, there are Merchants Trading iron materials with Mojia village!" tiehang and others have already arranged people to stare at Mojia village. Naturally, they saw Sichuan merchants enter the shops in Mojia village. Although they don''t know the specific situation, they also detected that the goods traded are iron materials.


    "Good courage, someone sent iron to Mojia village!" the iron mine owner was angry at the news. Seeing that Mojia village was going to be at a dead end, someone came out to spoil their good deeds.


    "Check immediately. Once an iron firm betrays the covenant, our changsun house will not let them go." Leng Shengdao, the housekeeper of changsun house, doesn''t believe that any merchant dares to violate the will of changsun house.


    "Hui changsun housekeeper is not an iron man, but a business trip to several places in Sichuan and Shu."


    Soon after the news came back, it turned out that the business trip from Sichuan and Shu sold iron materials to Mojia village.


    "No, the land of Sichuan and Shu does not produce iron, and the iron material has never been out of Sichuan. How can it appear in Chang''an City? Is it that this is the successor of the Mohist son?" the eldest housekeeper of changsun mansion was surprised.


    One is that there are few iron ores in Sichuan and Shu, and the transportation in Sichuan and Shu is inconvenient. The iron materials are heavy and difficult to transport. Little iron materials have been produced in Sichuan. Now the iron materials in Sichuan and Shu appear in Chang''an City, which is an extremely strange thing. "


    "The successor of Mohist school!" everyone was startled at once.


    The owner of Huainan road mine smiled bitterly and said, "this time, it''s not the iron shop in Sichuan and Sichuan that makes trouble, but the people''s business trip spontaneously transports iron materials to Mojia village. It''s thought that the iron materials in Guanzhong are expensive. Those bitter horsemen want to make a small fortune and bring some Sichuan iron materials to resell."


    "So it is!" they all breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the reputation of the Mohist school was so powerful that they were like birds frightened by a bow.


    "I didn''t expect that the high price of iron would attract those bitter caravan porters. You immediately sent someone to guard in front of the shops in Mojia village. If any business travelers in Sichuan and Sichuan sell iron, they will immediately increase the price." Leng hum, the eldest housekeeper of changsun house.


    "Yes!" a group of mine owners responded.


    In front of the Mohist shop!


    A business trip in Shu was carrying heavy iron materials and was about to deliver them to the shop. Suddenly, a man from an iron shop stopped him and said, "brother, I heard you have iron materials. Now the price of Chang''an urban iron is very high. I Huainan iron shop is willing to buy it at a high price."


    Shudi business travel shook his head and said, "I do have iron in my hand, but I want to sell it to Mojia village, not to others. I''m sorry."


    "I don''t know what the price of Mojia village is? Our Huainan railway company can buy it at a premium of 30%. The man of the railway company said confidently. In his opinion, these merchants from Sichuan and Sichuan come for money, and naturally they won''t refuse the high price of the railway company.


    Shudi business brigade laughed loudly and said, "it''s not the price offered by Mojia village, but these iron materials are given to Mojia village for free. There''s no money at all!"


    "Iron material without money? How is this possible?" the iron man was surprised.


    "Of course it''s possible! In order to help us build a new Shu Road in Sichuan and Shu, Mohist village is in a crisis of iron shortage. It''s a great kindness. We in Sichuan and Shu always know how to repay the kindness and give some iron materials to Mohist village?" Shu businessman said bluntly.


    "So it is?" people around suddenly realized that it was the spontaneous behavior of ordinary people to send iron materials to Mojia village for free to thank Mojia Zi for sparing no effort to help build a new Shu Road in Sichuan and Shu.


    "The Mohist school built a new Shu Road because of its boundless righteousness. The people in Shu know how to repay the kindness, which will be a good story in the future." for a while, the people in Shu were praised for their actions.


    The iron man sarcastically said, "how much iron can ordinary people use? The Mohists need more than 10000 kilograms of iron every day. This iron is just a drop in the bucket!"


    What iron workers say is not empty. Mojia village adopts a large steel-making furnace. There will be a lot of materials for each steel-making. Only large iron ore can supply Mojia village. A little iron material from ordinary people is of no help.


    Shu merchants looked at the dozens of kilograms of iron materials in their hands, and their faces turned red and said, "the strength of the next person is naturally limited. There are millions of people in Sichuan and Shu. Now Jinniu Road, Ziwu Road, Baoxie road and other Shu roads are close to each other. Countless Shu people transport iron materials for Mojia village along the Shu Road to solve the danger of Mojia village."


    "Ah!"


    The people of Chang''an, who were watching, were all in an uproar. No one thought that the people in Sichuan should be so righteous and give full support to Mojia village with iron materials from Sichuan and Sichuan.


    "The ancients did not deceive me. The construction of the new Shu Road is the trend of the times. The Mohists did their best to help and received the help of millions of people in Shu. The iron men stopped the trend and went against the trend. They will surely taste the bitter fruit in the end," sighed an old man.


    The old man''s words immediately made the people of tiexing blush. In the eyes of everyone, Shu business travel proudly stepped into the shops in Mojia village.


    "I''m sorry, the good intentions of the people of Shu, such as you, are appreciated by the Mohist village. However, the Mohist also has no habit of taking advantage of others. How about this? How about the Mohist buying your iron materials at the iron price of years ago?" Li Yi, who came to hear the news, welcomed the business trip of Shu.


    Shudi business travel made concessions again and again. Finally, at the insistence of Li Yi, it finally sold the iron materials to Mojia village at a fair price.


    Then, as Shudi business travelers said, almost all business travelers and grooms who came to Guanzhong along the Shudao road would carry iron materials and finally sell them to Mojia village at a low price.


    Although a person carries less iron, he can''t support the prosperous Shu Road. If you can overlook the new Shu Road, you will find that the dense shadows of the whole Shu Road are transporting iron for Mojia village.


    "Those who gain more help than those who lose." for a while, the story of Mojia village and the people in Shu spread all over Chang''an city.

 Chapter 1227

    "It''s hard to climb the path of Shu, but it''s hard to climb the sky!...... Indeed, the Mohist son knows the pain of the people in Shu best."


    Between the mountains and on a cliff, a group of Sichuan and Sichuan horse Gang grooms sighed.


    "This Shu Road will devour the lives of many Sichuan and Shu people every year. Once the new Shu Road is built, you can drive a carriage directly through it. The dilemma of Sichuan and Shu will be solved immediately. This is the wish of Sichuan and Shu for thousands of years. Finally, it will come true. This time, because of the difficulties in Sichuan, the people of Mojia village are duty bound to help Mojia village." an old horse driver said generously.


    "Yes, you have almost had a rest. Please hurry now. Mohou is still waiting for us to deliver iron materials?" the caravan leader got up and said in a loud voice.


    "OK!" immediately, all the grooms got up and continued to set out,


    There are countless similar caravans along the Shu Road. They go to Chang''an city one after another along the Shu Road. They carry more or less iron materials along the way, but they can''t hold many people. Mojia village has obtained quite a lot of iron materials in a short time and resumed normal construction again.


    "How''s it going? Is what the Palace said right? You can''t help the Mo family!" Princess Gaoyang said sarcastically in the changsun house.


    "Hum!" Chang sun''s face turned blue. Although Chang sun''s house was powerful, it was also an official matter. There were not many people''s problems. He didn''t expect that his careful layout had been destroyed by a group of mud legs. Although there were not many iron materials in Sichuan, I''m afraid they could be used by Mojia village with the support of the whole people, All their previous plans turned out to be in vain.


    "However, the palace has a plan to let Mojia village cut off the supply of iron materials in Sichuan and Shu?" Princess Gaoyang suddenly said.


    "Princess, you?" the eldest sun Chong was surprised and looked at Princess Gaoyang incredulously. He thought Princess Gaoyang would read her jokes and watch her fail. He didn''t expect Princess Gaoyang to take the initiative to help him. Moreover, he had heard the rumors in the palace that Princess Gaoyang seemed to have some special feelings for the Mexican family. Now Princess Gaoyang seems to be a little abnormal.


    Princess Gaoyang behaved elegantly, with a sinister smile on her mouth and said, "after all, you and I are husband and wife. In addition, this is the future of changsun''s house. Naturally, there is also this palace. Naturally, this palace will not sit idly by, let alone fight with the Mexican family, which is what many people dream of."


    Chang sun Chong looked at Princess Gaoyang strangely, as if he knew Princess Gaoyang for the first time. Finally, he saluted respectfully and said, "please teach me."


    Princess Gaoyang seemed to be careless: "it''s very simple. The iron materials in Sichuan and Shu are transported by the Shu Road, and the Shu Road is very difficult to walk. Many sections can only accommodate one person. We just need to let the Shu road blocked. No matter how much iron materials there are in Sichuan and Shu, we can''t quench our thirst."


    "Ah! Never! It''s a great crime to destroy the Shu Road. We were originally commercial competition. No matter how big the trouble is, the court won''t say anything. Once the Shu Road is destroyed, it will certainly arouse the suspicion of the court." Chang sun Chong was surprised when he heard the speech.


    The Shu Road, together with the passage between Guanzhong and the land of abundance, is extremely important in terms of economic status and strategic status. Once someone destroys the Shu Road, it will certainly lead to the pursuit of the imperial court. At that time, it will be the first to suspect the changsun house.


    Princess Gaoyang got up and said softly, "the palace just said to make the Shu Road impassable. When did you say to destroy the Shu Road, you just need to send a group of people, pretending to be a businessman, deliberately blocking the narrow places of the Shu road every other section. You blocked him for three or five days for the original one-day journey. In this way, the incoming iron materials will be greatly reduced, which is not a worry at all."


    "The princess is clever!" the elder sun Chong suddenly realized, so that he could easily solve the problem of transporting iron materials along the Shu Road.


    With Chang sun Chong''s insidious efforts, for a while, the conditions of major Shu roads were frequent, and large-scale congestion occurred. The iron materials transported through Shu roads were greatly reduced, and the iron shortage crisis in Mojia village reappeared.


    "Young master, less than 10% of the iron materials transported from Shu can''t supply the cost of Mojia village at all. This must be the trick of the changsun family." Li Yi hurried from Mojia village to Mofu, worried.


    Merton was not surprised by this and said, "the Mohist people''s kindness in Shu is appreciated. The iron material in Shu is an unexpected joy. Whether it is the trick of the changsun family or not, the Mohist can''t count on the iron material in Shu to help the Mohist village through this pass."


    Li Yi frowned and said, "but young master, now those iron shops are besieging Mojia village. Mojia village either buys high-priced iron or accepts their conditions. There is no third way to go?"


    Merton laughed and said, "there is no third way to go? All roads lead to Chang''an. The Mohist family can open up a flat road even the most difficult Shu Road in the world, not to mention a little iron. There is a lot of iron in the world. The iron in the Mohist village is nothing."


    Compared with later generations, the iron needed by Mojia village is not even as good as a local steel mill. It is really not much from Merton''s perspective.


    "Young master, could it be that there are already countermeasures?" Li Yi said with great joy.


    Merton was confident and said, "yes, my young master has countermeasures. If there is no accident, he should have succeeded."


    "Seriously?" Li Yi was suddenly surprised and surprised. He didn''t expect that the young master had solved it, but he didn''t get any news.


    Merton nodded and said, "the reason why there is no news about this is because my young master entrusted it to the Taoist waidan pulse."


    "One pulse of Taoist external alchemy?" Li Yi couldn''t help himself. He didn''t think that the key to solving the crisis of Mohism was the one pulse of Taoist external alchemy.


    The mountain behind xuandu temple.


    Next to the well-guarded firearms prison, there is also a mysterious place, that is the laboratory of Taoist waidan Yimai.


    In the lab.


    Li Yi and others stood in the Taoist laboratory in mingchuang, nervously watching Taoist priest Changsheng complete the last step of the experiment.


    "Succeeded!"


    When Taoist priest Changsheng saw that the original rusty rust was finally reduced to black iron powder, he couldn''t help breathing a sigh of relief.


    "How is this possible?"


    Li Yi didn''t dare to believe. He never thought that the rusty iron could be restored to iron again.


    "What''s impossible? Material immortality is the highest pursuit of Taoist external alchemy. Now I''ve finally witnessed this with my own eyes, and it''s not a waste of my life." Taoist Chang Ji first said.


    The pursuit of immortality is the highest pursuit of Taoism. Since the defeat of the Taoist conference, waidan has never recovered. Now he personally reduced the rust into reusable iron powder, which just proves the material immortality and opens a new world for the waidan, an opportunity for the waidan of Taoism to carry forward.


    "Of course, don''t forget mohou''s promise." Changsheng glanced at Merton.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "don''t worry, Wanguan''s funds will hit the account of Taoist waidan Yimai tomorrow."


    Although Wanguan''s money gave him a headache, it was worth it to solve the crisis of Mojia village and stimulate the Taoist waidan to make further progress.


    "A secret skill bought by money!" Li Yi was shocked, but there was no meat pain. The rusty iron was reduced to iron powder. Once the Mojia village had this secret skill, the crisis of the Mojia village would be solved.


    In this era, rust prevention technology is backward, and iron is rusting all the time. Over time, the current rusted iron in Datang is an amazing number. Once these rusted iron are used by Mojia village, not only will Mojia village have a large amount of iron in a short time, but even the money for buying secret skills can be earned back in a short time.


    "Young master, wise!" Li Yi said with deep admiration. Since then, even if there is no iron ore, there is no iron shortage crisis in Mojia village.

 Chapter 1228

    "Matter is immortal! Rust is restored!"


    When the latest research results of Taoism were successfully spread, the whole world was in an uproar.


    Taoism has always studied the secret of immortality. Immortality and rejuvenation are the realm of Taoism''s dream. Unfortunately, it has always been a flower in the mirror. Now Taoism has developed material immortality, directly reducing rusty iron into reusable iron powder, which is like rebirth. It is like an explosion that breaks through the city, causing a sensation in the Tang Dynasty.


    Matter can live forever. How far is it from human immortality? For a moment, the government and the public were shocked, and Li Shimin personally invited Taoist priest Changsheng into the palace to consult the way of eternal life.


    "Dare to ask, can iron really live forever?" Li Shimin asked urgently.


    Long Ji, the Taoist priest of longevity, said: "this is absolutely true. Not only the rusty iron can be reduced to iron, but even if the reduced iron is rusted again, it can still be restored. It can be seen that the concept of material immortality in the vein of Taoist waidan is correct."


    "Hoo!" Li Chunfeng, who accompanied him, couldn''t help breathing and hurriedly asked, "so, the Taoist friend of longevity has seen the way of longevity."


    Li Shimin was also nervous and looked at the Taoist priest of immortality. If the material is immortality, can that person also live forever? As an emperor, even Ming Jun can''t stand the temptation of immortality.


    Taoist priest Changsheng smiled and said mysteriously: "no, I just preliminarily verified the material immortality, and only verified the iron like material. I''m afraid I have to go a long way. However, I believe that one day, there will be a pulse of Taoist external pills, which will surely reveal the secret of material Immortality in the world."


    "The way of longevity has been the pursuit of our Taoism for thousands of years. Now the breakthrough of waidan is the greatest luck of our generation of practitioners." Li Chunfeng sighed.


    In order to innovate Taoism, Yuan Shoucheng did not hesitate to test the poison pill by himself, which separated the external pill of the harmful horse from the group. At first, he didn''t expect that the external pill would rise again in such a short time, and had a great trend of leading the internal pill of Taoism.


    Taoist priest Changsheng smiled bitterly and said, "it''s so difficult. In order to test material immortality, the external pill has spent thousands of money in Mojia village just for iron. There are so many materials in the world. The way of longevity is too difficult.


    "Wanguan money?"


    They were stunned and turned to the last Merton.


    Merton smiled awkwardly and scolded in his heart: "old liar, want to do the old business again, ready to cheat money with white wolf empty handed!"


    This is not Morton''s wish for Taoist priest Changsheng. This old liar has a criminal record, but he cheated ordinary people before, but for his own personal interests. This time, Taoist priest Changsheng cheated the emperor and Taoism for the sake of external alchemy. The Mohists did spend thousands of money in exchange for the secret skill of reducing iron. When Taoist priest Changsheng said, it was the Mohists who spent it in advance Wanguan money came to experiment with the secret technique of restoring iron, which implied that although Taoism and the imperial court were all cheating money, the purpose was very different. Merton was naturally willing to help.


    "The Mohist school is also in crisis. It can only break the boat. Fortunately, Taoist priest Changsheng did not disappoint the Mohist school. Fortunately, with the method of rust iron reduction, the money and property are worth more." Merton did not hesitate to be an accomplice. The rise of Taoist external pills can refine all kinds of minerals, which is of great use to the Mohist school. Naturally, Merton will not hinder it.


    "So it is?"


    Several people are well aware of the current crisis in Mojia village. They have never understood how Mojia Zi broke the situation, but now they suddenly realized it. With the method of reducing rust iron, all the rust iron in the world will be used by Mojia Zi, and there is no need to be coerced by iron.


    "You''re a smart kid at ordinary times, which can be regarded as a practical matter." Li Shimin snorted coldly. He knew that Merton had a back move. Now it''s proved that it''s not surprising, but Merton''s made a breakthrough in the way of longevity in order to solve the iron shortage crisis, which gave him unexpected joy.


    "It''s a pity that he didn''t ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods in the middle of the night. With the method of reducing iron, the available iron of Datang increased several times out of thin air, while Li Shimin thought about the way of longevity." Merton was helpless in his heart.


    However, Li Shimin is an emperor at any rate. How can he not see this benefit? His voice changed: "the research on the one vein of waidan makes iron reusable. There is no danger of iron deficiency in the Tang Dynasty. It is really due to the state-owned merit. I will allocate special funds to the one vein of waidan in general, and hope that the one vein of waidan will continue to study the Taoism used by the state."


    Merton''s face froze. Unexpectedly, he tried his best to reuse the scrap iron, and Li Shimin gave all the benefits to waidan.


    "Thank you for your Majesty''s grace!" Taoist Changsheng couldn''t hide his joy. The routine of Taoist waidan has been exposed. You can''t go out and cheat. Waidan has no income. Now with the money of Mohism and the support of the imperial court, waidan will surely revive its former glory, which is aboveboard and blameless.


    Taoist priest Changsheng looked at Li Chunfeng. Li Chunfeng immediately said, "the inner Dan will also send Taoist people to help the outer Dan."


    Taoist priest Changsheng nodded with satisfaction. If waidan wants to revive, talents are even more essential. With the participation of Taoist talents, waidan has money and people, and has the right research path, it can certainly move towards brilliance again.


    Of course, the inner alchemy does not suffer any loss. Talents from the inner alchemy can join. Once the outer alchemy has made achievements, they can also take a share.


    The four sides in the Imperial Palace have achieved their desired goals and returned with their own satisfaction. However, the pursuit of longevity has never been the demand of ordinary people. After the news that Taoism confirmed material immortality came out, ordinary people just marveled and envied for a while, and more of their concern was the great purchase of money by Mohist Zi Wanguan.


    "The Mohist school is really big, and the money is only a secret skill." countless people smacked their tongue.


    Wan Guan''s family wealth is also one of the few in Chang''an City, and the Mohist school did not hesitate to take it out for an ink skill, which is admirable.


    "This is the MOH family!" many young people said proudly.


    "You are wrong. Although Mojia Zi spent millions of money, it is definitely worth it. Not to mention that Mojia village is at a critical juncture. With the secret technology of reducing iron, Mojia village can certainly recover the situation in one fell swoop. Not to mention that the value of rusty iron, which was originally worthless, has increased greatly. Mojia village can make a lot of money. It is afraid of millions of money I''m afraid I''ll soon return to the hands of mojiazi. "A businessman was as shocked as heaven. Mojiazi''s move not only solved the crisis of Mojia village, but also made a lot of money. It was a white wolf with empty hands.


    "No wonder someone bought scrap iron and rusty iron a while ago. Now I think it must be the means of Mohism." a Chang''an people suddenly thought of it.


    Everyone nodded deeply.


    Sure enough, with the spread of the news of the Mexican family''s Wanguan purchase of reduced iron and ink technology, the Mohist children who had secretly purchased scrap iron no longer covered up, but made a big public purchase.


    For a long time, scrap iron has never had any value and no one has purchased it. Datang has accumulated too much scrap iron, while Mojia village has collected a considerable amount of scrap iron in a short time.


    "Suppose a county has tens of thousands of kilograms of scrap iron, based on this calculation, the current amount of scrap iron in Datang is enough to be equal to the total iron output of all iron banks in ten years. Mojiazi made a wonderful move." Gongshu Hong watched a carriage pull the scrap iron to Mojia Village, and couldn''t help sighing.


    "From then on, Mojia village only uses scrap iron, and there is no danger of iron shortage." Gongshu Hao admires that today, only one Mojia village in Datang can smelt scrap iron, which is equivalent to ten years of iron production, and the scrap iron is enough for Mojia village.


    "Home Lord, the price of Chang''an urban railway plummeted." a son of a public loser came in a hurry and reported.


    "Hateful, let the Mohists escape again." the public loser regretted.


    "Shut up! It''s not only the luck of Mojia village, but also the luck of my Gongshu family, but also the luck of the whole industry of the Tang Dynasty." Gongshu Hong shouted.


    "Master, why is this?" the public loser refused.


    "Iron and steel is the food of the industry, and iron materials are in the hands of those iron companies, at their mercy. Now Mojia village has got rid of the siege of iron companies and stood out for our industry. As a member of the industry, my Gongshu family naturally needs to thank Mojia Zi for his efforts." Gongshu Hong solemnly said.


    "Not only that, this time the Mohist school has let the world see the power of hundreds of schools. Even the academic progress of any one hundred schools can cause changes in the situation of the Tang Dynasty." Gong Shuhao''s eyes lit up.


    The Mohist school was brilliant before, followed by a doctor, and now it is a Taoist school. I don''t know which one is next. Maybe it is a public loser.


    "All schools of thought are the future of the Tang Dynasty, and the protagonist is not necessarily Mohism."


    Gongshu Hao firmly said.

 Chapter 1229

    "Lost!"


    The whole iron industry alliance is in great sorrow. Mojia village has the secret technology of reducing rusty iron, which is no less than having a super iron ore, and there is a steady stream of iron ore, because a considerable number of iron will be abandoned due to rust every year. At present, only mojiazi has the secret technology of reducing iron in the whole world.


    The main reason for their iron alliance is to besiege the Mexican family. Now the Mexican family is no longer short of iron materials, and their alliance is naturally unnecessary. Now they not only don''t get the stainless steel secret skills, but hoard a lot of iron materials and occupy almost all their funds. Now they can only sell at a low price. If they can''t stop the loss in time, I''m afraid there is a risk of bankruptcy.


    As a result, the major iron firms are quietly selling iron materials at low prices. The price of iron materials in Chang''an city fell all the way, and finally almost halved and recovered to the level of years ago.


    However, what makes them crazy is that even if the iron price has fallen to the level of years ago, the whole Datang industry has always been in a wait-and-see state, and no one has bought it.


    "It can''t fall any more. The Mojia village has the secret technique of reducing rust iron, but other workshops don''t. I don''t believe they don''t buy iron material." the eldest housekeeper of changsun''s house waved his hand. This time, he took the initiative to convene the collapse of the iron alliance and proposed to form a price alliance again to maintain the iron price at the level of years ago.


    "What housekeeper Chang Sun said is that if the price drops again, we will lose money. At that time, we will only lose both of us." the owner of Huainan road called.


    Other iron shops and mine owners nodded one after another. This is not the time for them to fight inside, otherwise they can only lower the craftsmen in the end.


    With the concerted efforts of the major railway companies, the iron price finally stabilized at the level of years ago, and the whole railway alliance was relieved.


    "The changsun mansion is indeed a sea god needle, thanks to the changsun housekeeper this time!" a group of mine owners said with lingering fear, and gathered together with the changsun tiexing to thank the changsun housekeeper.


    The eldest grandson housekeeper couldn''t help laughing. He was the representative of the eldest grandson''s house in the outside world. He represented the will of the eldest grandson''s family. It was easy for him to stabilize the iron price.


    "Housekeeper, it''s bad! The iron price has dropped again." a servant of changsun''s house came in with a frightened face.


    The Chamberlain of changsun mansion looked at a kind of mine owner with a fierce look in his eyes. He couldn''t help wondering if someone took the opportunity to get away.


    However, a group of mine owners shook their heads and promised, "chamberlain changsun, please rest assured. We know the weight, how can we betray our allies."


    They are still in a crisis and have nothing to do for a while. If they really offend Chang sun''s house, they may really be dead end, not to mention maintaining the stability of iron prices, which is also good for them.


    "It''s Mojia village. Mojia village announced that it was open to supply iron materials to the market, and the price was only 70% of the market." the servant said bitterly.


    "70%, how can it be? There''s not much profit at all." the eldest grandson housekeeper exclaimed. Iron ore mining and smelting, coupled with a lot of transportation costs, this price doesn''t make money at all.


    Huainan road mine owner said with a wry smile: "we sell at 70% of the price before the year. Naturally, there is no profit, but the mojiazi collects worthless scrap iron and restores it again. If we sell it as iron, I''m afraid some can earn at 70% of the price."


    The eldest grandson''s housekeeper angrily said, "the Mohist son is deliberately making trouble. Everyone maintains the price years ago at the same time. Everyone makes money. He makes more, not better, but he suddenly reduces the price to 70%


    In the view of the eldest grandson housekeeper, in the face of huge interests, the Mojia Zi colluded with them to maintain the high-speed rail price, but the Mojia Zi severely slapped them and forced them to a dead end.


    All the mine owners were silent. They knew that mojiazi''s move might also be suspected of retaliation. Before they jointly besieged mojiazi, now mojiazi turned over and must be retaliating against them.


    It was a group of mine owners who besieged mojiazi before, but now it is mojiazi who besieged all of them.


    "70% of the price, sell it at 70% of the price!" the eldest sun housekeeper said with a gnash of teeth.


    They nodded helplessly. Up to now, a group of iron mine owners have no way to go. They can only exchange the iron materials in their hands for money as soon as possible. Otherwise, those iron materials are just a pile of heavy iron bumps in their hands, which are of no use at all, let alone they have no stainless steel secret skills, and have to bear the risk of rust of those iron materials.


    "Seventy percent, it''s a bunch of waste!"


    In Chang sun''s house, Chang sun angrily scolded Chang sun''s housekeeper. He didn''t expect that the original good situation would be overturned by the Mo family overnight.


    "Young master, it''s less than 70%. Now the plot of changsun''s house to block the Shu Road has been noticed and doesn''t work. Now the Shu Road has been unblocked, and a large number of iron materials from Sichuan and Shu have poured into Guanzhong. Now 60% of the price has been barely maintained." changsun''s house manages the family bitterly.


    The roads in Sichuan are rugged and difficult to walk. A large number of iron materials in Sichuan enter Guanzhong area and can''t be transported back. Fortunately, Mojia village also purchased at the price of years ago. However, there is a serious surplus of iron materials in Guanzhong area in a short time, and the price decline is the general trend


    Chang sun Chong suddenly felt powerless. The Mo family had the secret skill of reducing iron. The iron material of Shu Road was not a timely help, but a icing on the cake, but made the iron alliance worse.


    What made him more embarrassed was that now that he lost to the Mo family, I''m afraid there was no reason to restrict Princess Gaoyang from going out, which greatly damaged his self-esteem.


    "It''s no wonder that Chamberlain Chang sun did it. No one thought that the successor of the Mohist school was the Taoist waidan. The Chamberlain''s house fought against the two sons and hundreds of schools with its own strength. It can be said that although it was defeated, it was still glorious." unexpectedly, Princess Gaoyang didn''t take the opportunity to fall into the well and plead for Chamberlain Chang sun.


    "The princess pleads for mercy. Forgive you once. If the iron bank fails again, the two crimes will be punished together." Chang sun Chong moved in his heart and took the opportunity to go down the slope.


    "Thank you, young master. Thank you, princess. The villain made the changsun family suffer heavy losses. It''s really worthy of the trust of the young master and the princess." the Chamberlain thanked again and again and thanked Princess Gaoyang with tears of gratitude.


    "It''s easy to lose a lot. The so-called enemy should be solved rather than tied up. If there is vicious competition between changsun house and Mohist school, it can only cause heavy losses to both sides. Tomorrow, sister Changle and I will walk around and make changsun house and Mohist School reconcile. In this way, the loss of changsun house can be minimized. Anyway, my father-in-law is also sister Changle''s uncle. If you don''t look at the monk''s face and the Buddha''s face, you''d be a long-term father-in-law Sun''s house and Mo''s house are too stiff. I''m afraid the Queen''s face is not good! "Princess Gaoyang turned her eyes.


    "That''s Princess Lao!" the eldest sun Chong had no choice but to bow his head.


    The iron line is the pillar of the changsun family. If the changsun family lost the iron line, I''m afraid their strength will drop sharply. Now they can only rely on Princess Gaoyang to seek peace.


    Princess Gaoyang smiled with complacency. In this way, she easily convinced the Chamberlain and Chang sun Chong, and flattered the empress Chang sun. It can be said that one arrow and three eagles.

 Chapter 1230

    "Sister Changle!"


    "Sister Gaoyang!"


    In the Mo mansion, a scene of deep sisterhood is moving. This is the first time Princess Gaoyang has visited Princess Changle since she came out of the cabinet.


    "Sister Gaoyang is newly married. How can she have time to see her sister." Princess Changle smiled. Even if she had a disagreement with Princess Gaoyang before, she is a sister for many years, and she is the eldest sister, so she won''t take it to heart.


    Princess Gaoyang said wrongfully on her face, "sister Changle, don''t make fun of her little sister. Her eldest son-in-law is on business all day. She''s busy all day. She''s not as happy as her sister. She was accompanied by her brother-in-law on her honeymoon."


    Princess Changle couldn''t help smiling sweetly. The two sisters said some personal words intimately, looking happy.


    "Actually, I have something to discuss with my sister when I come here today!" Princess Gaoyang whispered after three rounds of tea.


    "Oh!" Princess Changle raised her eyebrows, put down her tea cup and said, "sister, please say something."


    "Little sister, I came to make peace for Chang sun''s house and Mo''s house today." Princess Gaoyang said bluntly.


    "Make peace? Where does sister Gaoyang start? Why doesn''t she know what the contradiction between the two families is?" Princess Changle pretended to be confused.


    Princess Gaoyang said with a wry smile: "sister Changle, don''t cancel your little sister. Recently, changsun house and Mo house have been stormy because of iron materials. However, changsun house is sister Changle''s uncle''s house after all. They are all a family. Don''t let outsiders see jokes."


    Princess Changle put down her tea cup and said, "what sister Gaoyang said is that we are indeed a family. However, when changsun''s house suppressed Mo''s house, she didn''t think it was a family! Now Mo''s house has the upper hand. How can changsun''s house think it''s a family."


    For this uncle''s family, Princess Changle has never had a good impression, especially the repeated battles between the changsun house and the Mo house were provoked by the changsun house, and Princess Changle naturally stood on the side of the Mo house.


    Princess Gaoyang apologized and said, "it was all the fault of changsun''s house in the past. The fight between our two families will only make outsiders see jokes and embarrass the queen. If we don''t talk about peace, we can benefit both families and reassure the queen."


    "Empress mother?" Princess Gaoyang moved out the empress changsun and asked Princess Changle not to hesitate. Although she had Qinglong real medicine, she did not cure the empress changsun''s condition. Empress changsun''s health has been bad these years. It would be bad if she was stimulated by this matter again.


    "Tell the princess, your highness King Wei wants to see you." just when Princess Changle was in a dilemma, Liu e hurried to report.


    "The second brother is back?" Princess Changle looked happy. King Li Tai of Wei had been exploring geography in the Tang Dynasty since he studied geography. He rarely returned to Beijing. Unexpectedly, he came back at this time.


    "I haven''t seen brother Qingque for a long time!" Princess Gaoyang''s happy face hides a trace of regret. Almost, she successfully asked Changle to agree. With Changle''s status, she can easily affect Mohist''s decision.


    "Please!" Princess Changle said with joy,


    Soon, Li Tai came in a hurry and looked around with an excited face.


    "Second brother!"


    "I''ve seen brother Qingque!"


    Changle and Gaoyang met up.


    However, Li Tai turned a blind eye to his two sisters, looked around repeatedly and said anxiously, "where''s Merton?"


    "Merton went to Taoist waidan for a pulse and said that he would continue to improve the secret of iron reduction." Princess Changle replied.


    "The material is immortal and the iron secret skill is restored. The Taoist external pill is worthy of a thousand years of inheritance. It is indeed extraordinary, but the king''s geographical pulse is also not inferior to any hundred schools." Li Tai said proudly.


    "Among my brothers and sisters, brother Qingque is the most talented." Princess Gaoyang complimented.


    Li Tai said proudly: "on the way back, brother Wei heard that the Taoist external Dan had helped Merton a lot, but brother Wei was not bad. He found a super large iron ore for the Mohists. From then on, the Mohists no longer have to worry about the lack of iron."


    "Super big iron ore!" Princess Changle and Princess Gaoyang exclaimed at the same time.


    Li Tai nodded and said: "Brother Wei was exploring the source of the Yangtze River in Sichuan and Shu. He suddenly received Merton''s help and asked brother Wei to help find iron ore. brother Wei finally found a super large iron ore in Panzhihua generation in the southwest of Sichuan and Shu. According to the exploration, its reserves are probably equivalent to the total iron ore reserves proved by Datang at present, which is enough to be used by Mohists for a hundred years. Merton no longer has to worry about the lack of iron materials."


    "The sum of all iron ores is enough for the Mohists to use for a hundred years." Princess Gaoyang was in a trance. Now the Mohists have a super large iron ore and the secret technique of reducing iron. They have become the overlord of iron materials in the Tang Dynasty, and the position of the changsun family in the iron industry has been lost in an instant.


    "Seriously?" Princess Changle couldn''t believe it.


    Li Tai waved his big hand and said boldly: "it''s natural. If I say, Merton has found someone. If you want to talk about the ability of looking for veins and minerals in the world, I don''t care about my geography. However, the ugly saying is in front. Although we are brothers and sisters, Merton promised a lot of money. My geography is in urgent need of money now."


    "A hundred schools of thought!" Princess Gao Yang felt bitter. If it was the secret technique of reducing iron of Taoist waidan that saved the Mohist school, and Li Tai''s geographical skill was a fatal blow to the changsun house, she thought how fierce the changsun house was when it combined with the world iron bank to encircle and suppress the Mohist village. Everyone thought that the Mohist village must be doomed.


    But who could have thought that the Mo family was indifferent and didn''t do it at all. The Taoist external Dan and geography beat the changsun house, and the price was only 20000 yuan. I''m afraid the losses of the iron industry in the world were more than these during this period of time. At this time, the changsun house may become the biggest laughing stock of the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Tai looked left and right, and finally determined that Merton was really not there. He couldn''t help sighing with regret. This was a moment when he was proud of his Geography. Unfortunately, he couldn''t let the Mohists see it with their own eyes.


    "Since Merton is not here, I''ll go back to the palace to see my father now!" Li Tai remembered that he was too excited. As soon as he entered Chang''an City, he hurried to the Mo mansion. He never went back to the palace to see Li Shimin!


    "Little sister, congratulations to the second brother!" Princess Changle got up and said to each other.


    Li Tai waved his hand, hurried out of the Mo mansion, stepped on his horse''s head and went to the palace without returning.


    "It''s too late, and my little sister is leaving." Princess Gaoyang looked lonely and never mentioned the reconciliation between changsun house and Mo house. After all, two people with equal strength will reconcile. Now the Mojia village has jumped against the super changsun house. Mentioning reconciliation will only humiliate changsun house, and changsun house doesn''t need charity reconciliation.


    "That sister won''t give it away. She got married early. There is a piece of advice to sister Gaoyang. We women should not get involved in the affairs between men. It''s a kind of happiness to keep ourselves in line and teach our husband and children." Princess Changle admonished.


    "What my sister said is true!" Princess Gaoyang whispered.


    Out of the Mo mansion, Princess Gaoyang looked gloomy. Her original confident statement and plan were unexpectedly disrupted by Li Tai, which made her fall short of success.


    "You are the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, the mistress of the Mohist family, sitting in the Red Cross, and what I have in Gaoyang, everything needs me to win over." Princess Gaoyang''s eyes said firmly.

 Chapter 1231

    "Super big iron ore!"


    Soon, when the news of the discovery of super large iron ore in Southwest Sichuan spread, the whole Chang''an city was boiling.


    "The sum of all iron ore reserves!"


    "Enough for a hundred years in Mojia village!"


    Such a large iron ore makes everyone smack. Iron is more and more widely used in Datang. I''m afraid this super large iron ore is priceless, but now it is owned by mojiazi. I''m afraid mojiacun will never suffer from the lack of iron material from now on.


    "It''s not just that Mojia village is no longer short of iron. I''m afraid there will be no lack of iron in the Tang Dynasty in the future."


    "The Mohist invented the secret technology of stainless steel, the Taoist discovered the secret technology of reducing iron, and the super large iron ore was found in a geographical vein. Now the iron materials reproduced in Datang will not rust easily, even if they rust, they may also be restored, and the iron loss will be greatly reduced. In addition, the super large iron ore and the continuous production of iron materials in major iron mines, I''m afraid there will be more and more iron materials in Datang in the future and will never be produced again There is a shortage of iron materials. "


    Sure enough, with the news of the birth of super large iron ore, the whole industrial community in Chang''an City cheered. This time, the iron material dispute between changsun mansion and Mohist school did not hurt Mohist village, but made a lot of handicraftsmen miserable. The soaring iron price doubled their costs, and some even stopped production. Now the sharp decline of iron price has greatly relieved the whole industrial community, It can even be said that when the iron price falls sharply, their costs will be reduced and their goods will be more competitive.


    "It seems that I bought it early. According to this posture, the iron price will still fall." a blacksmith stamped his hammer and regretted. Seeing that the iron price plummeted to 70% of the price years ago, he thought that it had reached the limit of the price, so he took out all his wealth and stocked a large number of iron materials, but he didn''t expect that mojiazi had a backhand. The birth of super large iron ore will certainly drive the iron price down further.


    "70% is good. The Li blacksmith bought it just years ago."


    "What are you? What''s worse is that those who follow the iron shop to fry iron materials. I''m afraid they''ll lose their money this time."


    A group of craftsmen gathered together and talked about it. At the beginning, the iron industry was powerful. I''m afraid many people followed suit and wanted to make a small fortune, but they didn''t expect to be overturned by the Mo family. The more miserable iron price has plummeted continuously, and now it is less than a quarter of the highest price.


    "You deserve it. That''s because you don''t believe in Mohist. When did Mohist lose?" a young blacksmith said proudly.


    All the craftsmen nodded silently, and the achievements of Mohist school made everyone convinced.


    "In my opinion, the worst thing is the iron line!" a carpenter said with a smile.


    The craftsmen couldn''t help smiling and showing a common hatred. Whenever they buy iron, they can use it for themselves, and the iron line is damaged by the interests of the whole industry. This time, the iron line is unlucky, and all craftsmen are happy to see its success.


    Sure enough, today''s iron industry is crying. The emergence of super large iron ore is good for everyone. Only for the iron industry, it is like a bolt from the blue. The most direct impact of the discovery of such a large iron ore is that the iron price, which was hard to stabilize, has plummeted again. It directly fell below 50% of the price years ago, and even this is not the lowest price.


    "This can''t be the false news deliberately released by mojiazi!" the Huainan road mine owner was so anxious that he didn''t dare to buy a channel.


    A mine owner shook his head and said, "no, if it was the news released by mojiazi himself, we can still doubt it. However, the news of super large iron ore came back from his Highness the king of Wei from Sichuan and Shu. It can''t be fake."


    Li Tainai is his Royal Highness the king of Wei. The Royal reputation makes it impossible for him to lie for the MOH family, let alone Li Tai has a geographical vein. Looking for mineral veins is professional for them. There is no doubt about this news.


    "Who would have thought that there were two successors of the Mohist school!" the Huainan road miner regretted.


    All along, they knew that Mohist school was indifferent and guessed that Mohist school would have a backhand, but they didn''t expect that Mohist School''s backhands were more powerful than each other, and any one could beat them, let alone two backhands at the same time.


    Now looking back on their previous vows to make the Mexican family bow their heads and hand over their stainless steel secret skills, a group of iron companies can''t help feeling that they picked up a stone and hit their own feet.


    In order to build a new Shu Road, mojiazi proposed casting iron money to raise money for construction. As a result, the Iron Bank seized the opportunity and plunged Mojia village into a crisis of lack of iron materials. However, Mojia found a super large iron ore in Shu and completely solved the crisis of iron shortage.


    "Who is mine owner Liu?" suddenly a young boy''s voice came over and saw a boy enter the Huainan Road railway line.


    "I am." Huainan road mine owner slowly got up and frowned.


    "I''m Di Renjie, a disciple of Han Zheng of Mojia village court. I''m specially entrusted by Mojia village to discuss the breach of Huainan Road railway without authorization with Liu miner." Di Renjie Lang said.


    The owner of mine Liu trembled in his heart and hurriedly said in a hurry: "mohou is merciful! I''m afraid lard has been deceived. I''ll send iron materials to Mojia village immediately. No, it''s free to Mojia village."


    According to the contract between Huainan road and Mojia village, in case of breach of contract, it is necessary to pay high liquidated damages. Originally, Huainan Road Railway besieged Mojia village, but it hoarded a large amount of iron materials and finally used up a large amount of funds. Where is there any remaining money to compensate Mojia village.


    Di Renjie looked at the frightened Liu miner, but he couldn''t feel any sympathy in his heart. However, he knew how much impact this person''s betrayal of the contract had had on Mojia village. If it weren''t for the superb means of Mojia Zi and someone else, his family would have been broken and dead. Now that he failed, he wanted to ask for mercy. What else would Tang law do.


    "Once the contract is signed, it will be subject to the legal effect. Anyone who violates the contract will be punished, not to mention the injustice of mine owner Liu. If Huainan railway does not abide by the contract, I''ll see you in court." Di Renjie said and handed over a piece of paper in his hand.


    When the owner of mine Liu took the paper, he immediately turned pale and sweated.


    Di Renjie looked around and looked at the iron mine owners who gathered together and said, "Di has some paper here. I don''t know if the Ma mine owner and others are there."


    As soon as di Renjie''s voice fell, several mine owners fell to the ground.


    "This little brother can escape us!" a mine owner begged for mercy. If ordinary people sue them, they will not be afraid if they are rich and powerful. However, this time, Mojia village wants to sue them. In addition, there are black and white certificates, not to mention that they are still the loser, and no one can help him. This time, if they are not inferior, they will break their families and flee.


    "The Legalists do not act with emotion, but with the law as the evidence. However, since Di came instead of the government''s Yamen, it shows that Mojia village still wants to reconcile with you. You just need to pay money according to the contract." Di renjielang said.


    "Reconciliation! We are willing to reconcile with Mojia village! But we can''t afford so much money now!" the owner of Huainan road said repeatedly.


    "Yes! Please forgive the Mohist School for some time." a group of mine owners laughed


    Di Renjie shook his head and said, "although you have no money, you have more valuable things, such as mines."


    "What, Mojia village wants to annex us!" all the mine owners were surprised and looked at di Renjie warily.


    Di Renjie shook his head and said, "no, I''m saving you. Today''s iron price has also seen that for a long time in the future, Datang''s iron production is far surplus, and the price will only go down all the way. I''m afraid it''s difficult for you to make money in the iron ore, let alone bear so much debt. I''m afraid only Mojia village can afford to buy your mine."


    Huainan road mine owner frowned and said, "with all due respect, Mojia village already has super iron ore in Shudi. Why do you stick to our small mine?"


    Many mine owners reacted and couldn''t help looking suspiciously at the young boy in front of them. If he hadn''t taken away the contracts signed between Mojia village and major railway companies, they would surely suspect that he was a liar.


    Di Renjie had expected, and he smiled: "Since you have inquired, I would like to make it clear that although the reserves of super iron ore are amazing, it is located in deep mountains and forests. It will take some time to put it into operation, not to mention that the Shu Road is difficult to walk and transport. If you really want to play a role, I''m afraid it will be several years later. When the Shu Road is completed, if not, how can Mojia village like your barren iron ore."


    "Over the past few years, the iron price has continued to fall, and the debt is high." a group of mine owners suddenly feel tight in their hearts. There is really not much time left for their iron shop. Instead, they might as well sell it to Mojia village at a good price.


    "Of course, you can still ask for help from the changsun mansion, but then you and Mojia village will have no room. I''ll see you in the court." Di Renjie said business.


    The defaulting miners could not help sighing. The most unwise thing for them was to intervene in the struggle between Mo mansion and changsun mansion. Now they are losers and can only accept the punishment of failure. Suddenly, they all lowered their heads.


    Finally, a group of defaulting mine owners can only accept the offer of Mojia village. Mojia village either wholly buys the mine or accepts Mojia village as a shareholder.


    "Welcome to Mojia village." Di Renjie smiled knowingly.


    The miners were relieved. They found that joining the Mojia village was not a bad thing. At least their iron materials were no longer marketable.


    So far, Mojia village has a super large iron mine in Central Sichuan, a scrap iron steelmaking plant, as well as the ore purchased by foreign shares and wholly-owned shares. In a short time, it even has 80% of the iron reserves of Datang.


    Mojia village occupied 80% of the iron ore reserves of Datang in a short time and became the leader of Datang''s iron ore industry.


    There are mines in Mojia village! Capricious!

 Chapter 1232

    "What, the major railway companies have switched to Mojia village!"


    Chang''an city was once again shocked by the strong news. No one expected that the iron material dispute would reverse again. Originally, there was no ore in the hands of Mojia village and was pinched by the iron bank, which triggered the iron price storm.


    Today''s situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse. In a short time, the share of iron ore occupied by Mojia village has risen sharply, directly opposing the previous position of super long Sun Fu.


    "Eighty percent!"


    The industrial circles in Chang''an City were silent, and then more excited.


    Iron and steel is the food of industry. However, for a long time, iron materials have never been controlled by the industry. Take Guanzhong for example, 70% of the iron materials in Guanzhong come from the changsun family. Mojia village has many years of experience and layout, and has advanced steelmaking skills. It only accounts for 20% of the share, and it is ordered in advance, especially in various places, Iron ore is scattered among aristocratic families, large and small, and the industry can only let them slaughter it.


    Now the Mohist family has occupied 80% of the iron reserves of the Tang Dynasty. The dominance of iron and steel has finally returned to the hands of the industry, and the Mohist family has made great contributions.


    "But the share of Mojia village is too much!" the public loser, the public loser, was still shocked, but then came a strong worry.


    Public loser Hao said confidently, "so what? That''s the Mexican family. How can he treat us and other people in the industry badly."


    One side of the public loser Hong''s face was uncertain. He sighed for a long time: "the Mohist is worthy of being the Mohist. The means to turn the world around and turn the tide are beyond the reach of the public loser, but Hao''er said right. It''s better to have the iron ore in the hands of the Mohist than in the hands of the aristocratic family."


    The aristocratic family is extremely domineering and does everything. The Mohist family also has a bottom line. Following the Mohist concept, iron ore is in the hands of the Mohist family, which can at least make the industry develop smoothly.


    "Having said that, I just don''t know whether the eldest grandson family is willing or not. I''m afraid they don''t want to suffer such a big loss with the style of the aristocratic family." the public loser gloated.


    Changsun mansion.


    The eldest grandson housekeeper has been kneeling outside for a day. There is silence in the hall. Even Princess Gaoyang, who has always been arrogant, has stopped her temper and stood aside dignified.


    "That is to say, in just a few months, my eldest sun''s family has occupied less than 20% of the iron material in Guanzhong area, and there was no mine in Mojia village, but now it accounts for 80% of the share." Lord, eldest sun Wuji''s tone is calm, but everyone is trembling.


    "Father, I didn''t expect that the Mo family was so cunning that they left two behind hands at once." the eldest sun rushed with a guilty face.


    "Father-in-law, don''t blame the son-in-law. The changsun family fought against three sons and hundreds of families with the strength of one family. It can be said that although it was defeated, it was not the fault of the son-in-law." Princess Gaoyang supported changsun Chong in front of changsun Wuji, a scene of a virtuous wife protecting her husband.


    Changsun Wuji angrily said: "You still protect him now. When he raised the price with other iron firms, my father advised him that changsun house and Mo house were originally relatives. It doesn''t matter how he let me be this uncle and how to face Changle and the queen. Now, I''m not cheap, but I''m beaten by the Mohists. Even Gao Yang''s intercession for you got a snuff."


    Princess Gaoyang looked embarrassed. She took her face down and went to Chang sun''s house to plead, but she didn''t expect that King Li Tai of Wei would return, bringing even more shocking bad news - super big iron ore.


    "For the sake of changsun''s house, it''s nothing for her daughter-in-law to be wronged?" Princess Gaoyang said with a little woman''s face.


    "Fortunately, everyone is a family. Merton can turn waste into treasure. His Highness the king of Wei can find such a large iron ore for the Tang Dynasty. The burden of changsun''s house providing iron for the imperial court can finally be put down." changsun Wuji sighed.


    According to the seniority, Merton, Princess Changle and King Li Tai of Wei should call eldest sun Wuji uncle. However, they have made the eldest sun''s family miserable. They are really uncle Keng! And they are Uncle Keng one after another.


    "Your father-in-law is dedicated to the imperial court. Your Majesty must remember his contribution." Princess Gaoyang flattered, and then got up and left.


    Changsun Wuji looked at the educated Princess Gaoyang who got up and left, and then looked at the indignant changsun Chong. He couldn''t help sighing.


    Nowadays, there are many talents in Chang''an City, but the eldest grandson Chong, who was once the first son of Chang''an City, is dwarfed, which makes the eldest grandson Wuji feel like a tiger father and a dog son.


    "Father, is the changsun family willing to completely lose control over the iron materials of the Tang Dynasty?" changsun Chong waited until Princess Gaoyang left and said it from the bottom of his heart without scruples.


    "What if you don''t want to? Now the Mohist master 80% of the iron materials of the Tang Dynasty, how can you get him?" asked the eldest sun Wuji.


    "Boy......" the eldest sun Chong immediately concluded, and suddenly fell down.


    Looking at the decadent eldest son, the eldest sun Wuji sighed, "do you know why the eldest Sun family has been based in Chang''an City for only 20 years, and why they can control 70% of the iron material share in Guanzhong."


    "I don''t know," said the elder sun Chong, shaking his head.


    "That''s because when the Tang Dynasty was just founded, the Tang Dynasty fought in all directions and was seriously short of iron materials. Therefore, the changsun family was ordered by his majesty to collect iron materials from all over the world to ensure military supplies. So far, the changsun family really rose by relying on iron materials." changsun Wuji said.


    "So it is!" Chang sun Chong suddenly realized.


    Changsun Wuji solemnly looked at changsun and said, "although today''s Mohist son is powerful, he doesn''t have no way to break the situation. Today, my father will teach you a way to turn defeat into victory."


    "Please give me some advice," said the eldest sun.


    Changsun Wuji said, "do you know that the iron material dispute between changsun mansion and Mohist school has been watched by the imperial court from beginning to end. Even Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, took the opportunity to propose to follow the example of the previous dynasty, implement salt and iron official camp and recover the management right of iron ware. I''m afraid I wouldn''t get the news if I hadn''t been my father and some contacts in the imperial court."


    "Salt and iron official camp!" Chang sun Chong was surprised. He couldn''t believe it. He looked at Chang sun Wuji. He didn''t expect that his actions surprised his majesty.


    Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "since changsun family is the first aristocratic family in the Tang Dynasty and has lost the control of iron materials, we should give up completely and fully support the salt and iron official camp of the imperial court."


    "Lift the table!" the eldest son rushed down and took a breath, and his face couldn''t help showing hesitation.


    Now the share of iron materials of the changsun family has decreased, but the actual iron output has not decreased. In addition, the family has a big business, and there has not been much loss. Once the salt and iron official camp is implemented, the changsun family will have nothing and completely lose its financial resources, which makes changsun Chong reluctant.


    Looking at Chang sun Chong''s greed for money, Chang sun Wuji immediately hated iron and didn''t become steel: "You think that the changsun family is rising with iron materials, that''s a big mistake. The changsun family relies on simplicity in the heart of the emperor. Losing the control of iron materials is not the most fatal to the changsun family. As long as there is simplicity in the heart of the emperor, our changsun family can prosper forever, and the implementation of salt and iron official camp is simplicity in the heart of the emperor, let alone the implementation of salt and iron official camp in the future. All iron tools belong to the official camp of the imperial court, and the changsun family has never failed The opportunity to regain control of Datang iron materials. "


    Chang sun Chong''s eyes lit up immediately. Now the Mojia village controls 80% of the iron reserves of the Tang Dynasty. The Chang Sun family has no chance to turn over, and the salt iron official camp is the last chance.


    If the Mojia village agrees, it will be in line with the plan of the changsun family. If the Mojia son opposes, it will completely lose the emperor''s heart, and the changsun family will not lose money.


    The eldest sun Wuji showed a proud smile. Since ancient times, he said that his nephew was Uncle Keng, but there were many nephews in Uncle Keng, so hurt each othe

 Chapter 1233

    "Tell your father! The super iron ore this time has the highest quality, large reserves and rich mineral types. It can be said that it is the best in the Tang Dynasty. From then on, there will be no worry about the lack of iron in the Tang Dynasty."


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Tai proudly showed Li Shimin his newly discovered super large iron ore.


    "God has mercy on me. Some time ago, I was nervous about iron materials in Datang and iron prices soared, but no one thought that such a super iron ore should be found in a short time. God bless Datang," said an imperial censor excitedly.


    "Your words are not right. It''s not the mercy of God. His Highness the king of Wei created a geographical vein to find veins and minerals for the Tang Dynasty. The discovery of super large iron ore in Sichuan and Shu proves that the geographical vein is one of the hundreds of new Jin scholars." Yu Zhining flattered.


    "However, China has a vast territory and abundant resources. There must be many minerals that have not been found. Geography has a long way to go."


    "Your Highness the king of Wei, as one of the hundreds of new Jin scholars, is indeed a great joy in the Tang Dynasty."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    All the officials agreed.


    "Hundreds of people!"


    When Li Shimin heard that his son had become a hundred families, his old face couldn''t help laughing into a flower, but he said modestly: "although the Green Finch has made little achievements, there is still a long way to go in the future. You Aiqing should not kill him."


    "Your Majesty is serious. Your majesty has trained hundreds of sons of a prince, which is really a model for fathers all over the world." all the ministers didn''t know Li Shimin''s mind and said one after another.


    "You Aiqing have been praised too much. There is still a long way to go in the geographical vein. Green finches should not relax. Continue to work hard to carry forward the geographical vein and continue to look for more mineral veins for the imperial court and the country," Li Shimin said.


    "Yes, my son!" Li Tai bowed.


    "On behalf of the Ministry of industry, I would like to thank your highness King Wei for having super large iron ore, and there will be no danger of iron shortage in the smelting of the Ministry of industry in the future." unexpectedly, the Minister of the Ministry of industry took the lead in trying to seize the super large iron ore.


    "Ministry of work?" Li Tai was stunned and quickly waved his hand and said, "this king of super large iron ore was asked by the Mo sacrificial wine shop to find it. Naturally, it belongs to the Mo Village."


    Zhang Liang didn''t care and said, "Your Highness the king of Wei doesn''t know. Is it the king''s land and the king''s officials who lead the land in the world, and the minerals in the world naturally belong to the imperial court, not whoever finds them? If so, isn''t the world in disorder?"


    "What Shangshu said is that the imperial court purchases a large number of iron materials every year. Now, with the super large iron ore, the Ministry of work doesn''t have to spend a lot of money every year." the Minister of the Ministry of work agreed.


    Li Tai shook his head and said, "Lord Zhang doesn''t know that this super large iron ore is not discovered occasionally, but that Mohist has invested tens of thousands of yuan. Moreover, after a series of precise geographical exploration, it was found that if it weren''t for Mohist, this super large iron ore could not appear at all. We can''t nationalize the super large iron ore just because of Zhang''s word whether it is the king''s land in the world."


    "However, not to mention that there has never been an official workshop in our Dynasty, and the Ministry of industry''s own operation of iron ore does not meet the precedent." what''s more surprising is that changsun Wuji has even stood on the side of the Mohist family. You know, just now, the changsun family and the Mohist family have been killed by the iron hopper, and the changsun family is still a loser. At the moment, he even speaks for the Mohist family.


    "Chang sun Wuji should be so selfless?" the ministers were stunned and didn''t understand Chang sun Wuji''s plan.


    "Not before. It''s because your majesty is kind and unwilling to plunder people''s private property. Otherwise, it''s the latest discovery. It''s still in the wild mountains. It''s not a private mineral that has been discovered by others. The discoverer is a prince and can naturally belong to the imperial court." Zhang Liang retorted.


    All officials can''t help but be silent. Logically, Mojia village should naturally belong to Mojia Zi by paying people to explore. However, the interests of super large iron ore are too great. It doesn''t mean that Mojia Zi can easily take it as his own after spending tens of thousands of yuan. What are the interests of the country?


    "However, I think not only the super iron mine should be officially operated, but also the whole Tang Dynasty should implement the salt and iron official camp. A few days ago, the major iron stores wantonly hoarded iron materials and raised iron prices, which made people''s life miserable. I think it is urgent to rectify the chaos of the iron industry, and the salt and iron official camp is the best choice." Tang Jian, a servant of the Ministry of civil affairs, suddenly stepped out of the line and said a surprise.


    "Salt and iron official camp!"


    Suddenly, man Chao was in an uproar and couldn''t believe looking at Tang Jian.


    Salt and iron official camp is a controversial policy. On the good side, it can make a great contribution to the finance of the imperial court. On the bad side, the imperial court will personally plunder wealth. It''s really ugly to eat.


    However, in the face of huge interests, Manchu ministers were silent one after another. At present, Datang is in a good situation and its national strength is booming. However, there are too many things to do. Datang''s finance has been unable to make ends meet. If you have this large amount of money, you can certainly build more bridges and more brick roads.


    Moreover, some time ago, the iron bank raised prices and besieged Mojia village without authorization, which made the imperial court find a reason to rectify the iron bank. However, it is ridiculous that Mojia village was the victim of the Iron Bank besieging Mojia village, but now Mojia village has turned defeat into victory, acquired a number of iron banks, and the imperial court has implemented salt iron official camp. Mojia village is still the victim.


    Suddenly, there was a silence in the whole dynasty. Not to mention the controversy caused by the salt and iron official camp in the world, take the controllers of iron materials in the world, one is changsun mansion, the other is Mohist school, which is a man of the moment in the world. He is not an ordinary mining director, which is up to them.


    "Weichen agrees with Yantie official camp!" suddenly, an old voice stepped out of the line and shocked the court.


    All officials were suddenly shocked. Look around to see who was willing to risk the curse to agree to the salt and iron official camp, but found that the person who agreed to the salt and iron official camp was grandson Wuji.


    "Grandson Wuji!"


    All officials were in an uproar. No one thought that changsun Wuji should agree to the salt and iron official camp. You know, there are historical reasons why changsun Wuji is in charge of the Guanzhong Iron Bank. Now the iron bank has become the economic pillar of the changsun family, and changsun Wuji should give up so easily.


    In other words, if you''re not polite, losing the Super Iron Mine in Mojia village will not hurt your muscles and bones, while losing the iron line in changsun mansion will hurt your vitality.


    Changsun Wuji said calmly, "the old minister was ordered to look for iron materials for the imperial court. He has been working hard these years. Fortunately, he didn''t disappoint his majesty. Now it''s time to hand over the iron line to the imperial court and reply to his majesty."


    "Auxiliary machine! You......" Li Shimin was greatly moved.


    Changsun Wuji has always been his most trusted person and right-hand man. He has worked hard for the government and the public over the years and has never disappointed him. Later, the Tang Dynasty grew stronger and did not need changsun tiexing to collect iron materials. Li Shimin has never taken back changsun tiexing''s power, which is a reward to changsun Wuji, However, he never thought that changsun Wuji would not hesitate to agree to hand over changsun tiexing and agree to Yantie official camp.


    "What a selfless changsun Wuji." the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty praised. Of course, except for Merton, who had fought with the changsun house, only he knew how greedy the changsun house was.

 Chapter 1234

    With changsun Wuji agreeing to the salt iron official camp, all the pressure immediately focused on Merton. Today''s Datang Iron Bank is divided into two parts of the world. Except that 20% of changsun Iron Bank and nearly 80% of the remaining shares are concentrated in the hands of Mojia village, including the undeveloped super large iron ore, which should also belong to Mojia village in theory.


    However, the officials did not think so. According to Merton''s previous strategy, the Mohist son who is still in the process of revival will certainly take the opportunity to donate the iron ore to the state to please Li Shimin.


    However, Merton''s next move surprised everyone.


    "I''m against the salt and iron official camp!" Merton said proudly.


    "Ah!"


    No one thought that the Mohists opposed the salt and iron official camp. All along, the Mohists'' concept has always been the same and public, and the salt and iron official camp is not a kind of public.


    "The Mohist school has indeed deteriorated. For the sake of interests, it has turned its back on the Mohist concept!"


    "I didn''t expect that even Tangtang Mozi would renege for the sake of interests."


    "Is such a Mohist still a selfless Mohist?"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There was an uproar in the court, accusing Merton one after another, or oppressing the Mohists with great righteousness, in order to force the Mohists to agree to the salt and iron official camp.


    For a moment, the Mohists accused everyone of crusading, as if it was a big mistake not to hand over the iron line.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help sighing. The benefits of the salt and iron official camp were self-evident. Now the whole iron shop of the Tang Dynasty was left with the changsun family and the Mohist family, both of which were his closest people. However, it was the easiest time for the imperial court to implement the salt and iron official camp, but he didn''t expect that Merton opposed him for the sake of interests. This was the first time, which made Li Shimin feel betrayed.


    Chang sun Wuji naturally noticed Li Shimin''s changes and couldn''t help smiling. When it comes to controlling people''s hearts, Mozi is still a little tender. Once Mozi loses his sacred heart, what waves can Mozi have?


    "I have a reason to object. Please listen to me." Mozi bowed to Li Shimin.


    Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "Mo Aiqing, please."


    Merton naturally heard the faint alienation in Li Shimin''s mouth. He sighed: "first, steel is the food of Mohism, the foundation of Mohism''s take-off and the lifeblood of Mohism. Now Mohism has managed to control its own lifeblood. Naturally, it is impossible to give up easily."


    The ministers could not help sighing. Naturally, they knew that the reason why Mojia village controlled 80% of the iron materials in the Tang Dynasty was not the result of the previous major iron banks encircling and suppressing Mojia village.


    But people understand, but the court is not willing to step back in the face of huge interests. After all, the court needs too much money now.


    "Secondly, the system of salt and iron official camp is not a good system. The implementation of salt and iron official camp will do all kinds of harm without any benefit," said Merton.


    "It''s nonsense." Tang Jian blushed. The salt and iron official camp was his most proud masterpiece, which was criticized by the Mo family.


    "The Mohist school is too arrogant. The salt and iron official camp can quickly improve the finance. Now all industries in the Tang Dynasty are waiting to prosper, and it is in urgent need of money. With this money, the Tang Dynasty can certainly make further progress." Zhang Liang, the Minister of industry, helped. He strongly supported the salt and iron official camp in order to get super grade iron ore.


    "It''s just killing a chicken to get its eggs." Merton sniffed, "Although the salt and iron official camp can increase the wealth of the imperial court in a short time, it has stifled the development of the iron smelting industry. I have read history books. The salt and iron official camp has done a lot of harm. The output of iron materials has decreased and the quality of iron materials is poor, but it is still sold at a high price. What the Tang Dynasty needs now is fine steel, special steel, stainless steel, and even all kinds of more advanced steel in the future. Once it is realized The technology of the iron smelting industry will stagnate or even retrogress. "


    Li Shimin hesitated for a while. These were the criticisms of the salt and iron official camp. He would not have taken them to heart before. However, today''s Datang is not what it used to be. Ordinary iron materials can no longer meet the needs of Datang. Instead, professionals like Mohist improvement need to study and improve their smelting skills day by day.


    "Moreover, the salt and iron official camp gathers the world''s iron industry in the hands of one official, which is very easy to breed corruption and abuse of power. At that time, the Mohists must buy high-priced iron, shoddy iron materials, or even no iron available again." Merton said bluntly.


    All officials frowned. Naturally, they knew the disadvantages of Yantie official camp. If they were in the situation of Mohism, I''m afraid they wouldn''t agree with Yantie official camp.


    "Finally, Mo''s opposition to salt and iron official camp is not to abandon Mohist ideas, but to follow the teachings of Mohist saint," Merton retorted.


    "Mohist''s teachings are nonsense."


    "Mohist saints teach Mohists to plan for their own interests."


    All officials refuted one after another.


    Merton explained: "In Mozi''s secret book, it was said that there was a vicious dragon entrenched in the 100000 mountains in the southwest. All villages were required to offer a girl and gold and silver treasure every year. The vicious dragon was very powerful. Many people wanted to get rid of it, but they would never return. Over time, no one dared to resist the vicious dragon until a young man practiced martial arts hard and asked for tribute from the vicious dragon When I was a beloved girl, I embarked on the road of killing dragons. "


    All officials are intelligent people. They immediately understand that the Mohist son has something to say. They can''t help looking at the eldest sun Wuji, who is headed by the Mohist son. The eldest sun tiexing has formed an iron alliance to besiege the Mohist son and let the Mohist village buy high-priced iron and disclose stainless steel Secrets. It''s not a dragon. I''m afraid the Mohist son''s counterattack against the eldest sun tiexing is a self metaphor for a young dragon slayer.


    "The boy finally defeated the dragon and saved his beloved girl and the wealth of the village after a hard journey and many fierce fights." Merton said.


    Changsun Wuji''s face was embarrassed. He naturally knew that the behavior of changsun mansion was disgraceful, but as he handed over changsun tiexing to the imperial court, these things would become a thing of the past. However, Mohist Zi compared it to the story of a young man slaughtering a dragon and nailed changsun mansion to the pillar of shame. I''m afraid generations will remember the disgrace of changsun mansion.


    "It''s necessary to have great wisdom and courage to kill dragons," sighed Li Shimin.


    Merton shook his head and said: "No, if the story ends here, everyone will be happy. However, the wisdom of Mo Sheng makes us ashamed. After the young man slaughtered the dragon, he sat on the dragon''s body and looked at the gold and silver treasures in the dragon''s cave. Finally, greed blinded his mind. Horns grew on his head and wings grew behind his back. The young man became a dragon. Mo Zi sighed with regret:" kill the dragon A young man eventually becomes a dragon. ''"


    "What a dragon slaughtering boy will eventually become a dragon."


    All the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked by it. If it was the youth who killed the dragon, the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty should only listen to a story. In the end, the youth who killed the Dragon turned into a dragon, but they raised the fable of the story infinitely. Even if they were in a high position, they had to lament Mozi''s great wisdom. The youth in front turned into a dragon. Would the Dragon killed be changed by those who didn''t come back What about? This is a fatalistic reincarnation, which is thought-provoking.


    The intention of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to promote the salt and iron official camp was good, which greatly increased the finance of the Han Dynasty. However, in the end, it was shoddy and the people complained. The original intention of the changsun Iron Bank was to collect iron materials for the imperial court and supply military supplies and civilian expenses. In the end, they allied with major iron banks to besiege Mojia village for the sake of interests. Their original intention was good, but in the end they became evil dragons.


    "What about Mojia village? Today''s Mojia village has won and has occupied 80% of the iron material share of the Tang Dynasty. Will the boy of Mojia grow into a dragon?" suddenly, sun Wuji asked coldly.

 Chapter 1235

    "The Dragon butcher will eventually become a dragon!"


    All the people in the hall immediately focused on Merton. According to Merton, today''s Mojia village can be said to be dominant in the Datang iron material industry and has grown into a dragon. It''s easy to use this influence to make a profit. According to Merton''s theory, it will also become a dragon.


    "I can''t promise not," Morton said truthfully in silence.


    The ministers were stunned and took an unexpected look at Merton. They thought that Merton would quibble that the idea of Mohism could avoid the tragedy that the Dragon slaughtering boy would eventually become a dragon, but no one thought that the Mohist family would admit it.


    Changsun Wuji played with the taste: "according to the ink sacrifice wine, it can''t be left or right. This is a difficult problem without solution. The harm of the two phases is lighter. From the perspective of the old minister, salt and iron official camp is the best way."


    Merton took a deep breath: "of course not. Everything in the world has a solution. Just let''s find out the problem. Now there are three most controversial problems in chaotang, one is the ownership of super large iron ore. Fang Xuanling felt a pain in his heart. In this way, I''m afraid the law of the Tang Dynasty will have to be changed and the completion time will be postponed again.


    "But!" Fang Xuanling confessed.


    Merton continued: "Of course, it is extremely unrealistic for a single mining fee to solve the financial problems of the imperial court, and it can not solve the problem that the Dragon butcher will eventually become a dragon. In particular, iron and other strategic resources related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood are the top priority. The imperial court can''t let its fluctuations affect the national economy and the people''s livelihood. If your majesty had asked Chang sun''s house to raise iron materials for the imperial court before, Tang Dynasty Since the founding of the country, the changsun family has made great contributions to its steady development. "


    Eldest sun Wuji accidentally glanced at Merton. He didn''t expect that the Mexican family would ask for merit for him. Even Li Shimin couldn''t help showing a look of complacency.


    "In that case, why didn''t your majesty take this law further, nationalize the responsibility originally undertaken by changsun''s house, and put part of the iron ore in the official camp. In this way, once the iron price plummeted and soared among the people, there was no need for the imperial court to intervene, but only the official iron ore to mediate, so as to ensure the stability of iron price and iron material supply among the people. At the same time, after the official iron ore became profitable It can also feed the imperial court''s finance. The government-owned iron ore is the main, supplemented by private iron ore. the government-owned iron ore stabilizes the market, and the private iron ore specializes in technology. In this way, the imperial court has profits, the private iron price is stable, and does not affect the progress of iron smelting technology. Isn''t it a happy way for everyone? "Merton said proudly.


    "Part of the iron ore is officially operated!" all the officials were stunned, and then they were excited. It has to be said that the improved salt and iron official operation method of mojiazi eliminated the disadvantages of salt and iron official operation, and all parties benefited.


    Li Shimin could not help nodding slightly. The compulsory implementation of salt and iron official camp has too great impact, and there are many disadvantages. There is the shortsightedness of killing the chicken to get the egg. Merton''s proposal is indeed the best solution. More importantly, with the competition between official iron mines and private iron mines, the Dragon butcher boy finally became the reincarnation of the evil dragon and finally cracked.


    Only the eldest sun Wuji was angry and didn''t fight at all. The feeling of the Mo family was to start the idea of the iron line handed in by themselves, and completely pick themselves out. In the end, only the eldest Sun family suffered losses.


    However, Merton''s next sentence stunned the eldest sun Wuji.


    "In order to show the sincerity of Mohist, Mohist is willing to give up the mining right of super large iron ore and let it be used as a pilot of official iron ore." Merton solemnly said.


    "What?" the officials suddenly burst into an uproar and looked at the Mo family.


    Everyone thought that the purpose of Mo Jiazi was to keep his super iron ore, but no one thought that Mo Jiazi gave up lightly.

 Chapter 1236

    "Just give up!"


    It''s a super large iron mine. Its reserves are the largest of all iron mines in Datang. Needless to say, whoever owns the super large iron mine will have the greatest voice in the iron industry. What Mohist Zi gave up is not only tens of millions of wealth, but also the location of the iron industry.


    "Are you sure?" Li Shimin looked surprised and adjusted his sitting position to face Merton.


    Merton nodded and said, "I''m sure that the task of the Mohist school is to explore the highest and deep ink technology for the benefit of the world, not the most basic mining industry. Even if its value is exciting, the Mohist school will not abandon the basics. If steel was not the lifeblood of the Mohist school, the merged small iron ore Mohist school would not hold."


    Merton''s words moved people. Has Mohism changed? Of course, Mohism has changed from a hundred schools that are about to die to one of the most famous schools in the world. Naturally, it can''t remain unchanged. However, the essence of Mohism has not changed from beginning to end. It was still the pure hearted Mohism.


    "OK! I''ve written down the contribution of Mohism." Li Shimin said solemnly. Even Li Shimin couldn''t refuse such a delicious cake as super iron ore.


    Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, was immediately delighted. This result was much better than his previous implementation of salt and iron official camp. The Ministry of Civil Affairs obtained a super large iron ore and could charge a mining fee. The calculated profit was no less than before, which could finally alleviate the financial pressure of the imperial court.


    Changsun Wuji''s heart is complex. He has saved changsun iron line. However, compared with super large iron ore and the secret technology of Mohist iron reduction, changsun iron line has become a chicken rib. The iron price of Datang will be extremely low in the next decade at least.


    More importantly, this time, the Mohist school took the lead and made the Mohist school more important in Li Shimin''s heart. He found that the current Mohist family has surpassed his position around Li Shimin, even better.


    "Brother Mo, I''m sorry!" after the meeting, Li Tai caught up and said apologetically to Merton.


    After all, the Mohist school paid thousands of funds for the geographical vein. The geographical vein should have been fought for by the Mohist school, but now the Mohist school has not kept the super large iron ore. as for the Mohist School''s saying that the Mohist school will not abandon its roots, Li Tai doesn''t believe it at all. After all, no one will dislike many mines, let alone such super large iron ore.


    Merton looked at Li Tai, shook his head and said, "Your Highness the king of Wei is polite. The discovery of super large iron ore directly gave the Iron Bank alliance a fatal blow. It has helped the Mohists a lot. Today''s matter is the Mohists'' own decision."


    Li Tai hesitated and said, "in that case, the king will return the Wanguan money to the Mohist school."


    Merton shook his head and said, "it''s not necessary. Although the Mohists gave up the super large iron ore, they also took the opportunity to merge several small iron ores, and they controlled the life of the Mohists themselves. Among them, they benefited from the discovery of super large iron ore in a geographical vein. The Mohists didn''t lose money in this business."


    "But......" Li Tai still felt guilty that he had not done anything with the money.


    Merton looked straight and said, "it''s true that super large iron ore is really exciting. However, although the Mohists gave up super large iron ore, they gained more valuable treasure than super large iron ore, that is the state-owned iron ore system."


    "State owned iron ore system?" Li Tai was stunned and looked at Merton.


    Merton explained: "Steel is indeed the lifeblood of Mohism. However, Mohism needs not only iron, but also metal Mohists all over the world. Even if Mohism has super large iron ore and solved the problem of iron, will it buy copper, aluminum and tin in the future? Mohism does not have the money and energy. However, sooner or later, these metal miners will be like us Like the iron industry alliance, they set a price and even forced the Mohists to put forward some unreasonable requirements. "


    "Private mines are mercenary, but state-owned mines can''t!" Li Tai suddenly realized that state-owned iron mines represent the interests of the country and can''t deliberately target one.


    Merton nodded: "yes, as long as there is a state-owned iron mine, there will never be an organization similar to the Iron Bank alliance. Mohism will no longer be controlled by others. Compared with the future of Mohism, it is not a loss to give up a large iron mine, not to mention that the super large iron mine is located in a barbarian land. There are many difficulties for non-governmental organizations to develop, so the imperial court can mine it."


    The super iron mine is located in the territory of the Liao people. For a long time, the Liao people''s tribe has been rebellious. Only the power of the imperial court can deter the Liao people''s tribe, and the non-governmental organizations are almost like sheep in the mouth of a tiger.


    "Brother Mo is really brilliant!" Li Tai admires. The purpose of the emergence of state-owned iron ore is to raise money for the imperial court, and secondly to adjust the fluctuation of iron price so as not to affect people''s livelihood. Naturally, there will be no iron not to sell or sudden sharp rise in iron price. Once the pilot project of super large iron ore is successful, it will be extended to other ore veins. In this way, the Mohists will have no worries.


    Merton took a meaningful look at Li Tai and said, "the state-owned iron ore system is not only benefiting the Mohists, which is a good opportunity for a thousand years for the geographical chain. It depends on whether his Highness the king of Wei seizes this opportunity."


    "Please teach me, brother Mo!" said corporal Li Tai without hesitation.


    Merton smiled and said: "The reason why the state-owned iron mine was successfully implemented is that the super large iron mine does not belong. If the imperial court forcibly implements the official operation of salt and iron, it will certainly cause an uproar. Similarly, other mineral veins are the same. If you want to implement the state-owned iron mine, you can only find new mineral veins. In this way, it will not cause civil opposition, but also benefit the imperial court. Looking for mineral veins is the advantage of geographical veins Place. "


    Li Tai''s heart was shocked. Originally, there was no driving force for prospecting in the geographical vein. This time, he was just stimulated by the money of the Mohist School and stopped by. As soon as the state-owned iron ore system came out, the geographical vein immediately had the desire to explore. From a hundred families, the geographical vein sought many mineral veins for the imperial court. Naturally, it was highly valued by the imperial court and could soon develop and grow, which was much stronger than his support alone. Personally, he was the prince, and it was more reasonable to help his father solve problems.


    "Brother Mo really woke up the dreamer with a word. I thank brother Mo for his advice." Li Tai said deeply.


    Merton laughed and said, "I don''t deserve it. Mo''s move is also selfish. The more ore veins His Highness the king of Wei explored, the more minerals the Mohists need. At this point, the interests of Mohism and geography are the same."


    Li Tai''s heart moved. The geographical pulse is a new hundred schools with a thin background. He has no way to develop rapidly. If he can cooperate with the Mohist school with a thousand years of background, the benefits to the geographical pulse will be self-evident. One day,


    Merton and Li Tai looked at each other, and suddenly an old and a new two hundred scholars reached a consensus, and the Mohists added another friend.

 Chapter 1237

    "Click, click, click!"


    With the continuous operation of hydraulic stamping machines, exquisite iron coins were forged.


    Since the Mohists solved the iron crisis, the output of stainless steel has increased greatly, which can fully supply the Ministry of the people to mass produce iron coins, and the progress of coinage has increased greatly.


    "Mohou, Prince! This is the latest batch of iron coins. Now the Ministry of Civil Affairs has accumulated about 500000 iron coins, and it is time to issue them all over the world." Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, said excitedly in the mint of the Ministry of industry.


    Looking at the exquisite iron coins, Li Chengqian nodded slowly and said, "my father ordered the post station and the Mojia village bank to assist the Ministry of the people in issuing iron coins. Naturally, the palace did its best to complete it.


    This issue of iron coins is to raise funds for the construction of Shu Road, which is of no benefit. There are only two capable and reputable people who can exchange iron coins in Datang, one is the post station and the other is the Mojia village bank. The post station is all over the world, which is the top priority. Mojia village bank has a lot of business, focusing on Chang''an, Luoyang and other big cities.


    "Tang Shangshu, since the iron coins have been cast, once they are issued, the funds for building Shu roads should be in place," Merton warned.


    "This is nature!"


    Tang Jian couldn''t help but feel a pang of pain. About 150000 pieces of stainless steel iron were used for this batch of 500000 pieces of coins. In addition, hydraulic stamping saved labor, and the cost of shaving out the necessary expenses did not exceed 200000 pieces. That is to say, the Ministry of the people made 300000 pieces of money. Sure enough, coinage is the most profitable business in the world.


    "No, I mean that this batch of money is earmarked for the construction of Shu roads," Merton insisted.


    Tang Jian immediately frowned and said, "ink offering wine, if this batch of money is put in the national treasury, it will be a great waste. I can guarantee that there will be no less money for the construction of Shu Road."


    Datang is in urgent need of funds. Just now Tang Jian has thought of where he needs money, and mojiazi immediately disrupted his plan.


    Merton shook his head and said, "anyone knows that the Ministry of civil affairs is in urgent need of money. I''m afraid how much money is not enough to fill the bottomless hole of the Treasury. If Tang Shangshu is worried that this batch of money will be dusty in the Treasury, he can put it in the Mojia village bank. The Ministry of civil affairs can withdraw it at any time, and Momou will pay interest regularly."


    In any era, the progress of the project depends on the payment speed of Party A. digging a new Shu Road is a huge project. If sufficient funds can be guaranteed, the construction progress of the new Shu Road will be greatly accelerated.


    "No, this is the money from the national treasury. How can we get into a private bank?" Tang Jian objected. He was unwilling to release his money.


    Seeing that Tang Jian was unwilling, Merton turned his mind and said, "don''t worry, Lord Tang, as long as you raise three million Guan for the construction of Shu roads, if the iron coin will have a surplus in the future, the rest of the money will be at the disposal of the Ministry of the people."


    Tang Jian thought that this 500000 Guan was the first batch of iron coins. As the iron coins were widely accepted by the Tang Dynasty, the 500000 Guan would become 5 million Guan, or even more, and the Ministry of the people would make more money. Although most of them were used to build Shu roads, the extra money was also a large amount, not to mention that it was not a one-off deal, but could also increase with the economic growth in the future Long, you can continue to reissue iron coins.


    "But this is an iron coin after all. What if the people don''t accept iron coins?" Li Chengqian frowned. The previous coins were gold, silver and copper, and iron coins were the first time in the world. The acceptance of the people is still unknown.


    Merton shook his head and said: "Your Highness, don''t worry. The value of iron coins is very small. Compared with the convenience of iron coins, its risk is negligible. Of course, there will be people''s concern. Weichen has ordered Mo to publish articles to explain the authority and convenience of iron coins. Moreover, the post station and Mojia village bank not only exchange iron coins, but also promise to exchange iron coins into Kaiyuan Tongbao unconditionally. In this way, the people will be happy But it won''t conflict. "


    Iron coins are enough for only a few Wen. Even ordinary people can bear the loss. As long as the court promises to recover iron coins unconditionally, people''s worry can be greatly reduced.


    Li Chengqian thought carefully that Merton could even issue paper money, let alone more reputable iron money. At present, he said with confidence: "in that case, officially issue iron money. The palace will also order Confucian journals to publish articles to publicize iron money."


    With the order, Confucianism and ink magazines made efforts at the same time to publicize the role and significance of iron coins.


    "Supervised by the Ministry of civil affairs, it makes up for the gap of small currency and makes trading more convenient."


    "Raise money for the construction of the new Shu Road!"


    "Made of stainless steel with the latest Mohist technology."


    With the publicity of Confucian and Mohist magazines, iron coins were soon known, and people couldn''t help but move. All along, the smallest currency was a penny, which was very inconvenient to buy and sell. With iron coins, it was much more convenient. In addition, Mojia village was talked about with relish because of the gratitude and resentment between iron coins and iron shops. For a moment, iron coins became the hottest topic in the Tang Dynasty.


    At the same time, the Bank of Mojia village acted at the same time. Carts of money were pulled out from the household department and sent to the post stations all over the country. Once they were exchanged for gold and silver, they would be immediately handed over to the Ministry of people.


    As for Mojia village bank, it is more simple. It directly exchanges real gold and silver for iron coins in cash, and a truck of copper coins for iron coins of the same value. Obviously, it has full confidence in iron coins.


    However, the actual situation is stunned. The people of Chang''an city are used to copper money trading, but they still resist the new iron money. Even if all the change is only a few Wen, it is still not used. Everyone believes in Kaiyuan Tongbao on the outside and inside, and no one is willing to use the beautifully made iron money.


    "Hahaha, this time, the Mohist son capsized in the gutter. Not only can''t change the iron money, but even the new Shu road he attaches most importance to will be shelved." in changsun''s house, changsun Chong said happily.


    Although his eldest grandson Chong suffered a disastrous defeat in the dispute over iron materials, his Mohist son did not win. Iron money could not be replaced with copper money, so he finally became a laughing stock.


    Princess Gaoyang looked at the self comforting long sun Chong and shook her head helplessly. Yu Guang fell on the pricing of Ink magazine shopping.


    "Nine Wen nine, send it home."


    The Mohist set a price of nine Wen and nine cents for all the goods with a price of ten Wen or even higher, and the prices of other goods have been lowered to the nearest ten cents. In this way, if people want to save money, they must use the change of fifteen cents.


    You know, maybe people are reluctant to exchange their copper money for iron money, but no one cares about getting a few iron money in vain. Once more and more iron money is accumulated in the hands of the people, it will naturally circulate slowly.


    The most sensitive businessmen in Chang''an City found that their business had fallen sharply recently, while the business of Mohist mechanism city was even more popular. When they inquired a little, they exclaimed: "Mohist son is clever!"


    It turns out that there is an extra nine behind all the goods in the Mohist mechanism city. You know, nine Wen nine and ten Wen money seem to differ by only a dime, but in fact, they are very different to the psychology of customers. In contrast, everyone thinks that the goods in the Mohist mechanism City are cheap, but in fact, a dime cheaper is insignificant to all businesses.


    Soon, merchants in Chang''an City followed suit, suffixed with a nine Jiao after the goods. However, if you want to follow the example of Mojia village, you must have enough change. For a moment, the Bank of Mojia village has a hot business of exchanging change, and all the merchants are lining up to exchange money. Iron money soon opened up in Chang''an City and spread rapidly outward.


    At this point, the iron coin was officially launched. However, no one thought that the biggest contributor to the promotion of iron coin was the $9 strategy.

 Chapter 1238

    With the wide application of Chang''an urban railway money among the people, the situation of railway money was officially opened. Then, Luoyang, Kaifeng, Yangzhou and other big cities spread to small and medium-sized cities and even rural areas.


    Silver ticket transactions are usually large transactions, while iron money is a daily consumption, which is essential for everyone. When people see the convenience of iron money, the promotion of iron money is unimpeded. Under the promotion of post stations, it spread all over the country overnight.


    A truckload of iron money accompanied the post station to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, and then replaced by a truckload of copper money back to Chang''an city. The imperial court''s vassal Treasury accumulated a large amount of money in a short time.


    "This is the scene of autumn harvest!"


    A young civil affairs official exclaimed that it was always the autumn harvest time that the imperial court''s Treasury was so full. Now, when there is no shortage of time, so much money came into the imperial court''s Treasury, which is amazing.


    "The simple policy of the Mo family is worth the tax of the imperial court for half a year," exclaimed his colleagues.


    "Unfortunately, the money can only be seen but not used!" the young official regretted.


    Mojiazi''s move is earmarked for special purpose, so that civil affairs officials can only stare at the money, otherwise they are sure to spend all the money in one day.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Facing the hall.


    "Tell your father! Now the post station has exchanged 1.2 million yuan for the imperial court." Li Chengqian said excitedly.


    The loss of the post station was the biggest burden of the imperial court. Now in the hands of Li Chengqian, it not only regained its vitality and turned losses into profits, but also made repeated contributions and became an important department of the imperial court.


    "Your Majesty, the Mojia village bank has also exchanged 400000 yuan for the imperial court," Merton followed.


    Most of the strongholds of Mojia village bank are concentrated in big cities, but the argument is far less than the post bank all over the world. It can exchange 400000 yuan of iron money.


    "One million six hundred thousand!"


    All the civil and military officials were in an uproar. No one thought that a quarter of iron money could be exchanged for 1.6 million yuan in cash.


    "Good!" Li Shimin was excited. The imperial court suddenly increased more than 1.6 million yuan of cash in a short time. Even if half of the capital is removed, there are still 800000 yuan of income.


    "Tell your majesty, since the iron coin has just been launched, there is a lot of money to be exchanged. 800000 yuan is only the income of this month. With the iron coin accepted by the people, there will be a steady stream of iron money to be exchanged next. My minister believes that the iron coin can raise 3 million yuan for the new Shu Road in the near future." Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of civil affairs, said excitedly.


    That''s three million Guan. Even the whole Tang Dynasty can''t come up with it in a short time, but now it''s just around the corner. Even Tang Jian thinks that the profit of three million Guan is not the limit of iron money, and the money in many places naturally belongs to the imperial court.


    "Tell your majesty that the imperial court has money now. I think it''s time to start the construction of the new Shu Road." Merton said solemnly.


    Suddenly, man Chao''s breath stagnated, and a super large project costing 3 million yuan will be officially launched. No matter the investment of 3 million yuan, it will certainly cause a series of chain reactions, not to mention the significance of the completion of the new Shu Road, which will stimulate the economy of Datang unparalleled.


    Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "Li Tai, you are responsible for exploring the terrain of the new Shu Road and designing the route of the new Shu Road."


    "My ministers take orders!" Li Tai answered. Geological exploration is the strength of geography, and this task belongs to him.


    "Merton! You are responsible for preparing gunpowder, opening up mountains in case of mountains, building bridges in case of water, and opening up the new Shu Road as soon as possible."


    "Minister Wei, take orders!" Merton said positively.


    "Zhang Aiqing! The Ministry of work is responsible for convening migrant workers and collecting corvee to ensure sufficient labor on the new Shu Road." Li Shimin finally ordered.


    "I will obey your orders!" Zhang Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of works, said bitterly. As usual, such projects are owned by the Ministry of works alone, but now the Ministry of works only occupies the most useless and cumbersome collection of labor. The credit has not fallen, but there are a lot of things.


    With the cooperation of Mohism, geography and the Ministry of industry, and the money has been basically in place, the preparations for the new Shu Road of the super project have been completed and can be started with an order.


    The courtiers were excited. Once the new Shu Road was completed, the southern artery of Chang''an City would be opened. At that time, the disadvantage of inconvenient transportation in Chang''an City would be completely rewritten, and the original plan to move the capital to Luoyang would disappear, and the driving force behind all this was the youngest mojiazi in the chaotang.


    After all this, the Mohist School silently returned to all officials. The clouds were light and the wind was light, and his achievements and fame were deep.


    With the adoption of the resolution on the new Shu Road, the great court will continue.


    "Tell your majesty that you have a play," said Linghu Dehui, the Minister of rites.


    "Accurate playing!" Li Shimin was in a good mood and waved his big hand.


    "Thanks to his Majesty''s permission, the Turkic ministries returned to their hometown, but Sima Khan played again and again to impeach Xue yantuo, innocent, provoke tribal conflicts and connive at herdsmen to compete for grassland." Linghu de Lang said.


    Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and pretended to be surprised: "is there such a thing?"


    Linghu de nodded and said, "tell your majesty, it''s the turn of spring and summer. It''s the time for herdsmen to roam and compete for grasslands. Xue yantuo and the Turkic departments have always had old grievances. I''m afraid in the long run, the two tribes will lead to great disaster."


    Li Shimin''s eyes flashed and couldn''t help looking at Merton behind the officials. As Merton expected, Xue yantuo was unwilling to return the grassland to the Turkic departments.


    "It''s bold. The old land of Monan is the old land of all Turkic tribes. Xue yantuo thought it was him after ten years of herding. Come here, send me the will, and send Tang envoys to scold the barbarian man, so that he can''t harass the Old Turkic tribes innocently, and both sides can''t keep their pastures and plunder." Li shiminyi said righteously.


    "I will obey your orders!" Linghu Taku took orders.


    Li Shimin thought for a moment and said, "order all Turkic departments south of the Great Wall to speed up the return to the Old Turkic land."


    Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is in urgent need of animal husbandry products. The return of Turkic ministries can not only free up a large grassland for the Han people, but also increase Li Simo''s strength. If Li Shimin wants to weaken the East Turks and Xue yantuo at the same time, he naturally wants to try not to differ too far from each other.


    Linghu de nodded. Naturally, he knew the imperial court''s strategy towards East Turks and Xue yantuo, and understood it. He said: "now the whole country has become peaceful, your majesty should go to Mount Tai to worship zen.


    If you want to weaken the East Turks and Xue yantuo at the same time, you should not only strengthen the power of the East Turks, but also give the powerful Xue yantuo a chance to start, and Li Shimin''s departure to Mount Tai for Zen is the best time.


    "Mount Tai is closed to Zen!"


    The important officials of the Manchu Dynasty couldn''t help but look in their eyes. Since the first emperor of Qin Dynasty granted Mount Tai the highest honor to every emperor, the general emperor should not be qualified to grant Mount Tai the highest honor. He must be ordered by heaven, there are four seas, and the world is at peace. Before that, only Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty granted Mount Tai the highest honor.


    Li Shimin made great contributions when the Tang Dynasty calmed the world. After succeeding to the throne, he worked hard and opened up the rule of Zhenguan. He even broke the Tuyuhun and Gaochang of the East Turks, and served the world. He was honored as Tian Khan. According to his contributions, he was enough to seal Mount Tai as a Zen.


    However, Li Shimin is not without weakness, that is, his position is not correct and he is not ordered by heaven.

 Chapter 1239

    "How can I compare with the Qin emperor and the Han Emperor?" Li Shimin said modestly, but his heart was on his face.


    "Your Majesty''s words are bad. I think your Majesty''s skill is comparable to that of the Qin emperor and the Han Emperor, and is enough to seal Mount Tai for Zen." suddenly, a middle-aged official came out from the crowd with an excited face.


    "Comparable to the Qin emperor and the Han Dynasty!" Li Shimin''s face turned red. Rao was quite complacent, but he also felt that he could not afford the praise.


    "Xu Jingzong, this flatterer!" many officials spat.


    "Xu Jingzong!" Merton couldn''t help but move in his heart and look at the historical celebrity in front of him.


    Ignoring the strange eyes of all officials, Xu Jingzong shouted: "the achievement of the first emperor is to unify the world, with the same books and vehicles, and unify the weights and measures. However, his majesty also calmed the world and promoted homonymy; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Huns in the north and opened up the capital guard house in the western regions, while his majesty attacked Turk in the north, destroyed Gaochang in the west, and set Anxi capital guard house, which is not inferior to his military strategy."


    When Xu Jingzong finished, all officials nodded one after another. It had to be said that after Xu Jingzong''s mouth, they were surprised to find that Li Shimin''s achievements were indeed comparable to those of the Qin emperor and the Han Dynasty.


    "Not only that, the emperor of Qin and the emperor of Han are tyrannical kings, but his majesty is open-minded to accept advice and strive for governance. What''s more, Emperor Guangwu''s strategy of culture and martial arts. His majesty integrates the advantages of the three emperors and naturally deserves to be granted Zen on Mount Tai." Xu Jingzong said angrily.


    "Worthy of being a flatterer!" Murton secretly said. After Xu Jingzong''s eloquent words, he directly praised Li Shimin as one of the advantages of Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty and Emperor Guangwu, and almost shouted: he is not alone, not alone


    "Yes, your Majesty''s achievements are enough to grant Mount Tai Zen."


    "Minister Wei, I beg your majesty to grant Mount Tai a Zen title."


    For a while, all the civil and military officials asked for orders and asked Li Shimin to go to Mount Tai for Zen.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved. Mount Tai''s Zen is the highest honor of an emperor. Which emperor was not excited and was about to push the boat down, when an disharmonious voice suddenly appeared.


    "I oppose Mount Tai''s Zen worship!"


    They were stunned and looked at the past in surprise. They saw that Wei Zheng was the one who opposed it.


    Xu Jingzong immediately jumped out and said angrily, "what does Lord Wei mean? Does he think his achievements are inferior to the three emperors and do not deserve Mount Tai to be granted Zen?"


    Wei Zheng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty''s work is naturally worthy of Mount Tai''s Zen worship. However, Mount Tai''s Zen worship is a huge project, which costs a lot of money. Just now the imperial court couldn''t even take out three million yuan for the construction of a new Shu Road. It all depends on iron money. Now it''s extravagant and wasteful to go to Mount Tai to worship zen. It''s really abandoning the basics. Now all wastes are flourishing in the Tang Dynasty. If your majesty spends all this money on the domestic construction of the Tang Dynasty, it will be However, it would be better if the national strength could be further improved. "


    The Minister of Manchu Dynasty was immediately embarrassed. Whenever they met a super project, they cried that they had no money. I''m afraid Li Shimin spent no less than one million yuan on his way to Mount Tai to seal the Zen. However, none of the ministers of Manchu Dynasty objected. The money of one million yuan can at least build a brick road thousands of miles, and the benefits are self-evident.


    "That''s true!" when all the ministers saw Wei Zheng''s departure, they knew that he wanted to talk about diligence and thrift. This is the core of Wei Zheng''s advice. Once this move is made, it will try everything.


    Yu Zhining said: "Lord Wei said this to Miao Ye. Now the imperial court has built a brick road along the Longhai line, which is very convenient from Chang''an city to Mount Tai. The time is greatly shortened, and the money required is greatly reduced. There will be no extravagance and waste, as Lord Wei said. Moreover, Mount Tai''s Zen is for sacrificing heaven, and the major events of the country are being sacrificed. Mount Tai is the most important mountain in the world. Your majesty, Mount Tai''s Zen is also for sacrificing heaven Tell heaven that the achievements of the Tang Dynasty are good for both the country and the people. "


    Confucianism pays attention to the induction between heaven and man, and the Fengchan of Mount Tai is a typical sin of the induction between heaven and man, which is the nearest place for the emperor to talk to the gods.


    Wei Zheng frowned. According to the speed of the brick road, it is indeed much faster. It can save time and money, which is indeed much less than the previous Taishan Fengchan.


    "Your Excellency Yu said this, Miao also."


    However, Wei Zheng did not continue to oppose. Another voice sounded. Wei Zheng was warm in his heart. It seemed that there were people who shared the same interests as himself in the court.


    "Is it not that Mo''s offering of wine is also opposed to Mount Tai''s closing of Zen!" Yu Zhining was angry. Mount Tai''s closing of Zen is the most solemn ceremony of Confucianism. Mount Tai is in Shandong, and the Confucius Temple is also in Shandong. It is a good time to improve the reputation of Confucianism. Indeed, Mohism is the great enemy of Confucianism, and even came out to make trouble.


    Merton shook his head and said, "I''m not against Mount Tai''s Zen worship, but against the wrong Mount Tai''s Zen worship."


    "The wrong Taishan Buddhist cult!" all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were surprised and stared at Merton. It is said that when Qin Shihuang conducted Taishan Buddhist cult, the etiquette collapsed at that time, and everyone did not understand the ceremony of Taishan Buddhist cult. Finally, Qin Shihuang drank away the Confucian scholars and carried out Taishan Buddhist cult according to his own ideas. Could it be that the Mohist School spread the ancient etiquette of Taishan Buddhist cult.


    Merton nodded and said, "you don''t know. Mount Tai is the highest in the world. It''s a fallacy of predecessors. According to Mohist research, the higher the temperature, the lower the temperature, so that some mountains don''t melt all year round. During the western expedition, the army saw many mountains that don''t melt all year round. Even in winter, there is no snow on the top of Mount Tai. It can be seen that Mount Tai is not the highest mountain in the world."


    "What?" the whole dynasty was surprised. No one thought that Mount Tai, which they had always called the highest mountain, was not the highest mountain. The meaning of Mount Tai''s Zen worship is to stand at the highest place and let heaven hear the voice of mortals. Mount Tai is not the highest, and naturally it can''t be heard. Then Mount Tai''s Zen worship doesn''t have much meaning.


    "It''s true. During the western expedition to Tuyuhun or Gaochang, ministers and others did see a lot of snow all year round. Even in hot summer, there are still mountains covered with snow, and the snow water left from the top of the mountain is freezing. According to this inference, there is no snow on the top of Mount Tai, which is indeed not the most on the top of the mountain."


    Some generals nodded in amazement.


    Confucian officials wanted to refute, but they were speechless, because Mohist Zi denied Mount Tai with one of the most basic facts, that is, the snow line on the top of the mountain. This is an iron fact. Even after a little thought, they had to admit that Mount Tai is indeed not the highest mountain.


    Since Mount Tai is only an ordinary mountain and has no special significance, it is ridiculous for the imperial court to make a big fuss and spend a lot of money on Mount Tai''s Zen worship.


    Wei Zheng and Xu Jingzong couldn''t help laughing bitterly. They had been arguing about the advantages and disadvantages of Mount Tai''s Zen worship, but they didn''t expect that the mojiazi would directly lift the table, directly uncover the mystery of Mount Tai''s Zen worship, and let the aura of Mount Tai retreat.


    "Mojiazi, you are alarmist and destroy Mount Tai''s Zen worship. It''s really punishable." Yu Zhining angrily scolded. Mojiazi once again destroyed the Confucian sense of heaven and man, and made Confucianism lose the opportunity to become famous. How can you not make Yu Zhining angry.


    Merton retorted: "I''m not against Mount Tai''s Zen worship, but against believing that Mount Tai is the highest mountain in the world. This involves academia and can''t tolerate any mistakes. It is said that his Highness the king of Wei''s geography has a new method to measure the height of mountains, which can be proved."


    In an instant, everyone focused on Li Tai, king of Wei. Li Tai, king of Wei, suddenly felt that people were sitting at home and the pot came from heaven. At present, he could only say: "According to my son''s method of measuring the height of the mountain according to the geographical pulse, I found that Mount Tai is not the highest mountain in the world, but its height is not as high as other famous mountains. Mount Tai is 500 feet high, Mount Huangshan is 600 feet high, and mount Zhongnan is about 900 feet high..."


    Although Li Tai didn''t want to spoil Li Shimin''s interest, as a new hundred schools, he naturally couldn''t allow himself to make academic mistakes, so he had to tell the truth.


    Li Shimin frowned. He didn''t think that Mount Tai was not the highest mountain in the world, but ranked lower.


    Historian Yan shigu suddenly realized: "no wonder it is recorded in the history books that the first emperor solemnly granted Zen in Mount Tai and announced his achievements to heaven. He waited for a long time and didn''t get a response from heaven. I think that''s why."


    Since Mount Tai is not the highest mountain, the gods in the sky naturally can''t hear the prayer of the first emperor.


    Yu Zhining said angrily: "if we infer that the highest place in the world is not in Tubo Gaochang and other wild places, where there is the highest mountain, that is the best place for Zen worship."


    "Never! Not to mention that the wild land is too far away, but the plateau has plateau reaction, let alone the highest Xuefeng. The plateau reaction is more serious. At the same time, your majesty is suffering from wind disease and is naturally not suitable to go." Fang Xuanling and others hurriedly stopped.


    "Naturally, I won''t take such a risk!" Li Shimin regretted. The myth of Mount Tai''s Zen worship was broken, which put him in a dilemma.


    Merton said: "Naturally, Mount Tai is the best place for Zen worship. Firstly, Mount Tai is a famous mountain in the world with beautiful scenery. Secondly, it has the inheritance of Mount Tai''s Zen worship by the three emperors. Thirdly, if your majesty doesn''t leave, I''m afraid the barbarians won''t act rashly. Your Majesty''s plan to fetter the grassland will fail. I think you should go to Mount Tai for Zen worship, but there''s no need to make a big fuss and waste, so it''s a waste Let''s go on a trip. "


    Li Shimin glared at Mohist. Merton directly withdrew the aura of Taishan''s Zen worship. He still had the mind to pray with the gods in the sky. I''m afraid it would only add laughingstock.


    "The Ministry of rites is ready. After one month, Mount Tai will be closed to Zen." Li Shimin said weakly.


    "I obey your orders!"


    This time even Wei Zheng didn''t refute it. After all, the cost of Li Shimin''s travel and Mount Tai''s Zen worship is not the same day, let alone Mount Tai''s Zen worship has the significance of inheritance and the intention of luring Yi men.


    "I''m going to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist priest. The prince supervises the country. You should do your best to help." Li Shimin looked at Prince Li Chengqian.


    "My son takes orders!"


    "Yes, sir!" the Manchu minister said in unison.


    In the past, Li Shimin would naturally take all civil and military officials with him, while today''s Taishan Zen is just a trip, so he will not take too many people.

 Chapter 1240

    "Revenge, this is naked revenge!"


    In the ink mansion, Merton was angry and said angrily.


    "You deserve it. Who let you destroy Mount Tai''s Zen worship? Now it''s OK. It''s my father''s fault that the Emperor didn''t take you." Princess Changle glanced at Merton. Mount Tai''s Zen worship was solemn and mysterious. After Merton''s explanation, the mystery was lost. From the original Emperor''s highest etiquette to an ordinary ritual and travel, Li Shimin was surprised that Merton was pleasant to his eyes, It also caused her not to go to Chengtai mountain.


    Merton turned his mouth and said, "I''m just telling the truth. The king of Wei also directly measured the height of Mount Tai. How can the emperor take him with him? It seems that his son-in-law is still inferior to his son!"


    "Don''t talk nonsense. The father emperor''s move is to personally measure the height of Mount Tai. Brother Qingque''s geographical pulse is professional, so he naturally has to follow." Princess Changle said round the field. Li Shimin still didn''t give up and wanted to personally verify Mount Tai''s Zen worship.


    "If you don''t pull it down, who likes to go. Anyway, Mount Tai''s Zen worship can''t be heard or seen by heaven. At the same time, there are more important things to do in this sacrifice." Merton snorted coldly. Now the money has been in place and the new Shu Road is about to be built. Naturally, he won''t worry about Mount Tai''s Zen worship. The new Shu Road is the top priority of Mohism. Once the Shu Road is successfully built, Mohism will add another landmark building.


    "The new Shu Road is about to start!"


    As the news of the imperial court spread, the project of the new Shu Road was ready to start, which immediately spread all over Sichuan and Shu.


    Everyone cheered. From dignitaries to ordinary porters, they hated and loved the Shu Road under their feet. The new Shu Road brought them a livelihood, but the new Shu Road is too difficult to walk. Once the new Shu Road is completed, the land of Sichuan and Sichuan will be connected with Guanzhong Plain, which is good for everyone.


    The people of Sichuan and Sichuan actively participated in the construction. In addition, with Merton''s insistence, there was a special project fund of 800000 yuan. There was no shortage of money for the construction of the new Shu Road. There was no obstacle for the construction of the new Shu Road. Everything was ready, only the east wind.


    In the Ministry of work, Li Tai took a thick stack of maps and reported to Merton and Zhang Liang, the Minister of work.


    "Lord Zhang, Mo sacrificing wine, this is the route map of the new Shu Road drawn by geography. This route makes full use of the ancient Shu Road developed by predecessors, which can save half the construction period. At the same time, it is the best route with the shortest distance and the lowest difficulty in opening the mountain." Li Tai proudly said that exploring the new Shu Road by geography must be famous in history, It is self-evident that this is beneficial to the geographical pulse of mind.


    "It seems that his Highness the king of Wei really went to Mount Tai and finished the exploration so soon." Merton said in a strange way.


    Li Tai looked at Merton''s expression and said, "ink sacrifice, you think the king is willing to go through this muddy water. If you didn''t pull the geography into the water, how could the king destroy his father''s interest in Mount Tai''s Zen worship."


    "It is our unshirkable responsibility to stick to academic correctness, and it is a fact that Mount Tai is not high." Merton said righteously.


    Li Tai snorted coldly, "it''s unfilial for a son to disobey his father."


    "Bullying the king is a great crime. Mo doesn''t want to keep his Majesty in the dark." Merton retorted.


    Zhang Liang saw that the two were like children bickering. He couldn''t help but feel headache and said, "the academic dispute between the two can be debated later, but the ink sacrifice wine. His Highness the king of Wei is ready. I don''t know how the firearms prison is ready."


    Merton and Li Tai looked at each other, snorted coldly, and then stopped. They got up and arched their hands and said, "I tell you, sir, the firearm supervisor has already built an engineering camp! With enough gunpowder, you can open mountains and build roads at the command of your Lord."


    Merton stretched out his hand and Xue Rengui proudly stepped out and said, "Xue Rengui of the engineering camp pays a visit to Lord Shangshu."


    "Xue Rengui!" Zhang Liang naturally knew that the second person in the firearms prison. When he saw Merton put Xue Rengui in the engineering camp, Zhang Liang nodded with satisfaction.


    "Now that everything is ready, this Shangshu orders to start work immediately!" Zhang lianglang said. After all, Zhang Liang is the Minister of the Ministry of industry. Nominally, he is also the governor of the new Shu Road. Although he can''t control Merton and Li Tai, he is still the highest official nominally.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom!"


    With the order, the new Shu road finally started. The original ancient Shu Road was directly widened, the steep Shu Road was blasted flat, the violent explosion of gunpowder sounded among the mountains, birds were startled, and all animals were shocked and moved one after another.


    This time, there was no doubt about the power of gunpowder. The mountain that could not be shaken by manpower was easily blown open like tofu under the gunpowder explosion, and the progress of the project was greatly accelerated.


    "You know the power of gunpowder. You just need to drill a hole in the mountain, seal the gunpowder in and ignite it. With a loud noise, it will break into a stone. You just need to move these gravel away."


    "The gunpowder is so powerful."


    "That''s natural. You know, even Gaochang city was destroyed by gunpowder."


    "In ancient times, Yugong moved the mountain, but now there is gunpowder to open the mountain."


    For a while, the news about the opening of gunpowder spread all over the Tang Dynasty, and the reputation of Mohist School rose again.


    "Mojiazi!"


    At night, in the house, Yu Zhining gnashed his teeth and said.


    Although he was lucky enough to be selected by Li Shimin to participate in Taishan Fengchan, he was not at all happy. Originally, Taishan Fengchan was a rare heaven man induction ceremony of Confucianism, but now it has been turned into a trip by the Mohist family, making the carefully designed Taishan Fengchan a joke. In his opinion, the Mohist family is specifically against Confucianism, and the reputation of Confucianism has declined and the reputation of Mohism has soared, How can Yu Zhining be reconciled.


    "Don''t worry, sir. I have a plan to let the Mohists walk around. Since the Mohists destroy the Confucian Taishan Buddhist cult, we will destroy the Mohist new Shu Road plan." Xu Jingzong flattered.


    "Destroy the plan of the new Shu Road. Now the people of the new Shu Road yearn for it. The Ministry of work has money and people. It is a foregone conclusion that it is not human to build it." Yu Zhining shook his head.


    Xu Jingzong sneered: "since manpower can''t do it, why don''t we use the power of heaven!"


    "The power of heaven?" Yu Zhining frowned. Mount Tai''s Zen seal untied the veil. Now even Yu Zhining doesn''t believe whether the power of heaven can reach the Tang Dynasty.


    Xu Jingzong nodded and said, "that''s right! The Mohist gunpowder is really sharp. However, not everyone is happy. Many people doubt whether this move will provoke the mountain god and bring disaster."


    "Enrage the mountain god?" Yu Zhining''s eyes lit up. It''s a good idea, but he immediately shook his head and said, "but this is not enough. If the imperial court is afraid to enrage the mountain god, I''m afraid it won''t agree to build a new Shu Road."


    Xu Jingzong smiled strangely, looked up at the night sky and said, "it''s not enough to anger the Mountain God alone, but what if it''s a warning from heaven?"


    "Warning from heaven!" Yu Zhining suddenly looked up at the sky and saw a long broom hanging high in the sky.


    The broom star appeared, and the disaster was coming. Overnight, the whole Chang''an city was startled by the disaster star in the sky.

 Chapter 1241

    "What a beautiful star!"


    In the Mo mansion, Martha stood in front of the telescope, looked at the star with a long tail in the sky and exclaimed.


    "The little princess can''t see it. The broom star is a disaster star. It''s unlucky and easy to cause disaster." Liu e, who is in charge of looking after Mosha, said with a frightened look on her face.


    "What disaster star? My Mohist school doesn''t believe in the induction between heaven and man. There is a principle to explain everything. If the explanation doesn''t work, it''s because the ink technology hasn''t reached any step, and the broom star doesn''t exist." Wu Meiniang sniffed.


    Now Wu Meiniang is a determined son of Mohism. She doesn''t believe in the so-called heaven man induction. Moreover, she has observed the sky for a long time. Many days ago, she observed the broom star and reported it to her master, but she ignored the reply. Now the broom star is here. The least surprised is her.


    Now that Mohism has observed it, Taoism must have observed it, and I don''t know why. Taoism also didn''t report, but sat and waited for the broom star to appear.


    "I''m afraid Chang''an city is very lively now!" Wu Meiniang smiled knowingly.


    palace!


    Li Shimin was alarmed all night. Standing in the atrium, he looked up at the extremely beautiful and demonic stars in the sky. He frowned. The broom star appeared in the world, which represented a warning from heaven and indicated that the emperor was at fault, which made Li Shimin, who thought he was the emperor of Ming, feel like a lump in his throat.


    "Your Majesty works hard. Now that the Tang Dynasty is booming, how can God warn your majesty." empress Chang sun, who is accompanied by her, gently advised her that she naturally knows her husband''s heart disease. In fact, the most powerful man in the world is most eager to be recognized by others. In the past, he was most eager to be recognized by his father. After he ascended the throne, he was eager to be recognized by all officials and the people all over the world, Now he is more eager to be recognized by God.


    To this end, he was tirelessly ready to go to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist. Even if today''s Mount Tai is only a name, Li Shimin also did not give up.


    "Troubled times!"


    Li Shimin sighed secretly. Now the sky is strange. Tomorrow''s morning must be very lively.


    "With your majesty, you can''t make a mess! Your majesty should have a rest earlier, and there will be an early morning tomorrow!" the eldest Sun Queen comforted.


    Li Shimin turned his head and looked at the empress Chang sun who was wearing thin clothes but insisted on accompanying him in the night sky. He was not moved. He took Qianqian''s thin hand and returned to the legislative palace. However, the two lying down did not feel sleepy. Through the glass window, he looked at the broom star hanging high in the air, like a sharp sword hanging overhead.


    At the same time, many people in the whole Chang''an City were sleepless, and the presence of the disaster star frightened everyone. It was not until the fish belly appeared in the eastern sky and the broom star gradually disappeared that Chang''an city gradually returned to peace.


    In front of Tai Chi hall!


    Hundreds of officials gathered in the court. Every official who entered the palace subconsciously looked at the sky and saw that the broom star could not be seen in the sky during the day. Then he was relieved and stepped into the Tai Chi hall.


    When Li Shimin yawned and approached the Tai Chi hall, he was startled to see all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty. In today''s morning, almost all the officials above the fifth grade of Chang''an city came, which was obviously startled by the broom star.


    "Play when you have something, leave when you have nothing!" pound shouted expressionless as usual, but he couldn''t look like nothing when he looked at the formation this morning.


    "I have a book to play,......!"


    A minister took the lead and put forward one or two trivial things, which were quickly passed in the court. Then, government affairs were put forward one by one, which was quickly passed. First do business and then fight. After all, the ministers of Zhenguan dynasty still have professional ethics.


    There are even some controversial memorials. The government affairs that were supposed to be wrangled for a long time were quickly passed. With the continuation of the early days, everyone was silent. An official who still wanted to play looked at this posture and silently retracted his steps.


    The whole Taiji hall was silent and the atmosphere was extremely depressed. Everyone knew today''s content, but no one was willing to take the initiative.


    "If you have something to play, leave the court!" pound shouted again and wanted to take the opportunity to extricate Li Shimin.


    "The minister has his own play!" Yu Zhining couldn''t bear it any longer and took the lead.


    "Yes!" Li Shimin said expressionless. Things can''t be avoided. He won''t shrink back with his personality.


    "Tonight, the sky has a vision, and the broom star is here. This is the disaster star. Heaven warns. Please introspect yourself." Yu Zhining said painfully.


    "Broom star is here, and there''s this matter. Why hasn''t the Taishi Bureau reported it!" Li Shimin said with surprise, as if he had slept all night and didn''t find any abnormality.


    Taishi ordered Li Chunfeng to stand out and say: "I inform your majesty that I have also observed the broom star tonight, and the broom star is called the disaster star because its shape is similar to the broom, which is a legend of the ancients. Whether it is really unlucky remains to be verified. I dare not disturb your majesty."


    "How can we prove it? In the seventh year of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty, the broom star appeared, and in less than ten years, the state of Qin disappeared..." Yu Zhining cited scriptures and listed the events that had happened to the broom star.


    All officials in the Manchu Dynasty nodded one after another. From the history books, the broom star is accompanied by unknown things, such as extinction of the country, earthquake, mountain fire, strong wind and so on.


    "Tell your majesty, there are records in the ominous history books of broom star." historian Yan shigu said solemnly.


    "What about Mount Tai''s Zen worship?" Li Chunfeng retorted faintly.


    Broom star is not a Taoist saying. Including Mount Tai''s Zen worship is a trick of heaven and man induction made by Confucianism. It makes Taoism more difficult out of thin air. It also needs to interpret various meanings, which makes Taoism miserable. If you don''t pay attention, you will get into trouble. Taoism has long wanted to throw out this pot. Now take advantage of the aftermath of Mount Tai''s Zen worship to pick out Taoism.


    "I think it is our disrespect for Mount Tai''s Zen worship that has aroused the warning of heaven. Maybe Mount Tai is not the highest, and Mount Tai''s Zen worship can really reach heaven." Xu Jingzong said proudly.


    Suddenly, the faces of all officials changed. It''s too coincidental. They just denied Mount Tai''s Zen worship, and then broom stars appeared. This should not be a warning to Datang!


    "It''s possible! I think we should restore the standard of Mount Tai''s Zen worship. No, we should be more grand to calm the anger of heaven." Yu Zhining took the opportunity to advise.


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but be moved. He denied Mount Tai''s Zen worship because Mount Tai was not the highest mountain. Now the warning from heaven made him suspicious.


    "Not only that, I think God''s warning can''t help but be so simple. According to popular rumors, the engineering camp of Mo Jijiu banner opened the mountain with a generation of gunpowder in the Qinling Mountains. Every day, there was a constant roar, mountains and stones rolled down, and all animals were frightened. I''m afraid it alerted the mountain gods and attracted God''s warning." Ma Jiayun, the new Imperial College''s wine offering, jumped out and told the goal of Confucianism this time, that is the Mo family.


    "I think it''s not too late to suspend the new Shu Road," echoed Xu Jingzong.


    Li Shimin''s face sank. The construction of the new Shu Road had just started. Now he even alerted the mountain god and drew a warning from heaven, which put him in a dilemma.


    "No, the new Shu Road is a major national project, which cannot be changed day and night!" Li Shimin shook his head slowly. The new Shu Road is a grand project of the imperial court. It is the southern artery of Chang''an City, not to mention the expectation of the people in Sichuan and Shu for thousands of years. It is of great political, military and economic significance, and no one is willing to give up easily.


    "Your Majesty, think twice! I believe that the new Shu Road is good for the country and there is no big mistake. It is the originator who is really warned by heaven. Whether it is questioning Mount Tai''s Zen worship or the new Shu Road, it is all done by the Mohists. I think the Mohists should be punished strictly." Ma Jiayun fiercely impeached Merton.


    "Yes, I think the Mohist is the broom star of heaven''s warning! Let him go to Mount Tai to be a Buddhist monk and plead guilty to calm heaven''s anger," Yu Zhining said proudly.


    In his opinion, God''s warning indicates that the emperor is wrong. Now he passes on the mistake to Taoist Mozi. I believe Li Shimin will certainly push the boat with the water, and Confucianism can take the opportunity to kill Mozi.


    "Ah! So I can go to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist," Morton said with a surprised look on his face.


    Suddenly, the Minister of Manchu Dynasty had a black line on his face. How much Mohist Zi wanted to go to Mount Tai, he was even ecstatic to go to Mount Tai to apologize.

 Chapter 1242

    "No, this is definitely slander!" seeing Li Shimin''s bad eyes, Merton quickly changed his mouth and retorted with righteous words on his face.


    "Slander? The gunpowder of the engineering camp opened the mountain, roared continuously, the mountain god was angry, the disaster star hung high in the night sky and warned by heaven. This is irrefutable evidence. How can it be slander?" Ma Jiayun said angrily.


    "The mountain god is angry, and the disaster star is here! How can you be sure that this is a warning from heaven if Confucianism doesn''t practice the art of immortals?" Merton retorted.


    Ma Jiayun suddenly looked up at Li Chunfeng and wanted Taoism to comment on the heaven and man of Confucianism. Li Chunfeng turned his head slightly and avoided Ma Jiayun''s eyes. He couldn''t help but vent. In the past, when Confucianism was only respected, Taoism followed the lead of Confucianism. Now even Taoism has begun to have its own plans.


    "Broom star is a disaster star, which is recorded in historical books. You can''t argue in black and white." Ma Jiayun turned his eyes to historian Yan shigu.


    Yan shigu got up reluctantly and said, "history books do have records that broom stars are disaster stars, and every time they are accompanied by major events."


    Historians exist on the basis of Confucianism, not to mention Yan shigu''s ancestors had the friendship of teachers and disciples with Confucius. Historians can only stand up and endorse Confucianism.


    "What if I say that the broom star is not a warning from heaven, but a periodic fixed appearance, like sunrise and sunset, and does not disappear as a disaster?" Merton said faintly.


    "The broom star appears periodically and regularly." all officials in the Manchu Dynasty can''t help but exclaim. If the broom star is not a disaster star, how ridiculous their previous behavior will be.


    Li Chunfeng could not help sighing. The main reason why he was unwilling to endorse Confucianism was the Mohist school. He could observe the broom star many days ago. He believed that the Mohist school could also observe it, and the Mohist school could not lead it. This made him have to be careful. At the moment, it has confirmed his idea, and the Mohist school has repeatedly created miracles, so he must have figured out the countermeasures long ago.


    Ma Jiayun sneered at his speech and said, "there is a fixed cycle. The ink sacrifice will not take out the history books again. Let''s find the law! To be honest, Ma looked through the history books all night and found that the broom star has no law at all."


    Historian Yan shigu also nodded. Since mojiazi calculated the solar eclipse and lunar eclipse with historical books, he once thoroughly studied the historical books and found that he could not summarize the law of broom stars.


    Merton sneered: "if you Confucians and historians can''t sum it up, it doesn''t mean that other hundred schools can''t find the law!"


    Yu Zhining interposed: "ink sacrifice wine should not be far fetched in order to get rid of his sin!"


    Merton shook his head and said, "I''m not talking about Mohism, but the one pulse of arithmetic. All schools of thought, such as Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism and so on, will be biased against the understanding of things because of their own theories, while the one pulse of arithmetic is absolutely rational."


    "Everyone can lie to you, but you can''t do math."


    The famous saying of Merton flashed through the hearts of all officials in the Manchu Dynasty. Now this famous saying has been recognized by everyone. Mathematics is a cold number and will never make mistakes. If it is mathematics to calculate the emergence law of broom stars, I''m afraid it can immediately clear the charges of Mohism.


    Merton said with a smile, "I''ve heard that my ancestors are studying a new type of mathematical knowledge called number series. I wonder if your Majesty would like to see it."


    Li Shimin glared at Merton, waved his big hand and said, "xuanzu''s name is on the hall."


    The ancestral name Junru is now joining the court as an official, but he has not met the conditions for going to the court. Now, because Merton has repeatedly ascended the Tai Chi hall, I don''t know whether it is an honor or bad luck.


    Soon, the confused zumingjun came in a hurry. He was startled to see the formation of all officials in the Manchu Dynasty. When he learned the purpose of announcing him to the temple, he was in a dilemma.


    This is indeed the best time to become famous. But if it really proves the regularity of broom star, I''m afraid it will offend Confucianism, but he has to do it. After all, this is the ultimate destiny of every hundred schools. If you want a hundred schools to contend, don''t be afraid to offend other hundred schools, let alone wash away the accusation of broom star for his good friend mojiazi.


    "I obey your orders!"


    Zu Mingjun was ordered to record the time when the broom star appeared in the history books immediately on the paper, and calculate the time when each broom star appeared in batches.


    However, the ancestor Lacrosse frowned more and more, because he found that the numbers he calculated could not form a series at all. In other words, the emergence of broom stars is not regular at all. Naturally, it is impossible to calculate the approximate time of the next broom star. "


    "I didn''t calculate the law of broom star." Zu Mingjun said decadent.


    Many officials sneered. The Mohist school didn''t say that mathematics can''t deceive people. Since mathematics can''t calculate, the Mohist school is still a broom star.


    "Mojia Zi, what else do you have to say!" Ma Jiayun pressed step by step and was sure to kill Mojia Zi.


    Merton said with a speechless face, "the calendar of the Tang Dynasty is too inaccurate!"


    "The calendar is not allowed. Don''t shirk your responsibility. The broom star is a warning from heaven. How can it be speculated by human beings." Yu Zhining fell down the well.


    "Is the calendar of the Tang Dynasty accurate? I''m afraid this is the biggest joke Mo heard." Merton snorted coldly.


    "Don''t change the topic! We''re talking about the broom star." even Xu Jingzong, who has always been famous for flattering, felt that it must be difficult for the Mohist to turn over and stepped on the Mohist.


    Merton looked at Xu Jingzong coldly and said proudly, "the inaccurate calendar mentioned in this sacrifice is the culprit who can''t calculate the law of broom star."


    "It''s impossible. The calendar has been handed down from generation to generation. After several generations of reform, how can it be denied by your MOH family." Ma Jiayun retorted.


    This time, even the officials of the Manchu Dynasty shook their heads and thought that the Mo family was poor and reckless.


    Merton said coldly, "in that case, Mo asked you the simplest question, how many months and days are there in a year."


    "How many days are there in a year?" the Manchu officials immediately looked at the mojiazi with silly eyes. I''m afraid many young children who have just started school know this problem.


    "There are twelve months in a year, of course 360 days!" Ma Jiayun blurted out.


    "No, there are leap months!"


    When Ma Jiayun finished, he immediately frowned when he saw the expression of all officials and thought of the leap month. If it was the usual year, it would be 360 days naturally. If there was a leap month, it would be 390 days. The difference would be great.


    "Your question is a fallacy. There are leap months in the year and the 29th of the twelfth lunar month as the 30th during the new year. There is no accurate number of days in a year," Yu Zhining brushed his sleeve.


    "Of course, there are fixed days in a year. A year represents the reincarnation of the four seasons. It is a reincarnation of the sun. On the winter solstice every year, the shadow of the sun is the longest, and on the summer solstice every year, the shadow of the sun is the shortest. This is a reincarnation. It is so invariable every year. I don''t know whether Taoist Li thinks what Mo said is right or not." Merton turned to Li Chunfeng and asked.


    Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "yes, whether it is a leap month or not, the interval between the winter solstice and the summer solstice remains the same, even if it is a leap month, it will be adjusted."


    The officials suddenly looked pale. Li Chunfeng was an expert in the calendar. Since he admitted that the time between the winter solstice and the summer solstice was fixed, wouldn''t he say that the time of a year was fixed, and there was a deviation in the calendar currently used in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Brother Zu, please calculate how many days there are in a year." Merton smiled knowingly.


    Zu Mingjun''s heart moved, and his mental arithmetic began to work. Combined with the number of days and years he had experienced over the years, he quickly blurted out: "the time of a year is 365 and a quarter days."

 Chapter 1243

    "Wow!"


    Everyone was in an uproar. No one thought that one pulse of mathematics could prove the exact time of a year, and there were still a quarter of a day in a year. However, no one thought that one pulse of mathematics was wrong, because, as Mohist said, mathematics would not deceive people.


    "Why can''t I calculate the calendar of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Li Chunfeng Ji said first: "I once told you, your majesty, the Wuyin yuan calendar currently used in Datang is not accurate. I have privately calculated the calendar spectrum in the future and found that there are four consecutive big months, which is much different from the previous big and small months. It can be seen that my Datang calendar is wrong. I beg you to repair the Datang calendar again."


    So far, Li Chunfeng finally showed his intention to revise the calendar of the Tang Dynasty.


    "There is such a thing!" Li Shimin was shocked at the speech.


    Merton answered: "The Mohist school also found this. At present, the calendar of the Tang Dynasty can be called the monthly calendar, which is formulated according to the changes of the moon, the moon and the four seasons. The main purpose is for farming. However, the cycle of the moon and the cycle of the sun are different, which is the root of the contradiction. The minister believes that not only the monthly calendar should be revised, but also a calendar that can be used for ten thousand years without making mistakes, so as to make up for the Tang Dynasty A shortage of calendars. "


    Li Chunfeng nodded slightly. It was really a good idea, but he suddenly thought of a question and said, "however, the cycle of the sun is 365 and a quarter of a day. How to calculate this quarter of a day?"


    Merton smiled and said, "why is this difficult? Since the monthly calendar can be a leap month, the calendar can also be a leap year. It''s not just a leap day every four years."


    "Since it''s a leap year every four years, it''s best to divide this leap year by four. That''s the best." Zu Mingjun admonished. As a pulse of mathematics, he had a paranoid pursuit of divisibility.


    "Great kindness!" Li Chunfeng said first.


    Looking at the pulse of Taoism, Mohism and mathematics, a cooperation on Revising the calendar was reached in the twinkling of an eye. Once it was completed, it must be a great achievement, and Confucianism can only stare at it.


    Ma Jiayun said discontentedly, "in the final analysis, the ink sacrifice has not been able to prove that the broom star is not a disaster star."


    Merton looked at the pursuing Confucianism and sighed: "Mo just wanted to leave some face for Confucianism. In that case, don''t blame Mo for being impolite, brother Zu........"


    All the civil servants suddenly sank and felt a bad feeling in their hearts,


    Zu Mingjun reluctantly bowed his head again. Soon, he looked up again and said, "tell your majesty, Wei Chen has calculated that the occurrence cycle of broom star is 76 solar years and one month, that is, about 27789 days."


    This time, Zu Mingjun counted the extra day of leap year, and finally made the operation cycle of broom star the most accurate.


    Ma Jiayun and others immediately turned pale and couldn''t believe it. They couldn''t believe that the broom star for warning appeared periodically, which they had always believed in. It was not related to the rise and fall of the Dynasty and national events. The induction between heaven and man was wrong, which made the Confucianists feel a little frightened. So far, they have lost all the classics about the induction between heaven and man.


    Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling have uncertain faces. They may not believe in heaven and man induction, but heaven and man induction is their only chip to restrain the emperor. This time, not only Confucianism, but also the imperial court will lose their biggest weapon to restrict the emperor.


    "Impossible? The broom star is a disaster, which is recorded in black and white in history books." the historian Yan shigu muttered. He didn''t believe that the history books he had always believed in were wrong.


    "History books, history books are just little girls who can be dressed up. After the spring and Autumn period, historians of all dynasties have lost the character of ''Cui Zhu killing his king''." Merton retorted that since historians stand on the side of Confucianism and throw stones at Mohism, Merton will not show mercy to historians.


    "Cui Zhu killed his king!" Yan shigu felt a pain in his heart. He didn''t know the source of the proud historian''s character: it is said that Cui Zhu, the power Minister of the state of Qi, killed Duke Zhuang of Qi, and the supreme historian of the state of Qi truthfully recorded this matter: "Cui Zhu killed his king."


    After hearing this, Cui Zhu became angry and killed Taishi. Taishi''s younger brother, Taishi Zhongji, continued to write "Cui Zhu killed his king", and Cui Zhu killed him. Then Taishi''s other younger brother, Taishi uncle, also truthfully recorded that they were all killed by Cui Zhu. Taishi also had a third younger brother, taishiji. Cui Zhu said to him, "Your three brothers are dead. Aren''t you afraid of death? You''d better write about Zhuang Gong''s death as a violent illness and death according to my request.".


    Tai Shiji replied positively, "it''s the duty of a historian to write directly. It''s better to die if you neglect your duty to survive. Sooner or later, what you do will be known to everyone. Even if I don''t write it, I can''t cover up your guilt, but it will become a laughing stock for generations." so he continued to write "Cui Zhu kills his king".


    Cui Zhu had nothing to say and had to let him go. Taishiji came out and met Nan Shi''s Jane. Nan Shi thought he had also been killed and came to continue to write about it.


    Choi Kun killed his king to become the most arrogant character of the family. Later generations of history books were more dependent on emperors. For emperor''s foundation, Taiping had already lost the style of the historians.


    "Yan has been taught!" Yan shigu bowed his head.


    Li Shimin''s face turned black. If the aristocratic family wrote down the history books truthfully, I''m afraid his broken things could not escape.


    When Merton saw the historian bow his head, he transferred the fire to the Confucian people: "I''m afraid you''ve only seen Chinese history books, but you haven''t studied the history books of other countries! The history books of Tianzhu collected by the Mohist school are the history books of the pyramid country and even the extreme western country. There are records of broom stars in them. The world is so big that the Tang Dynasty only occupies one place. It''s too arrogant to regard the broom stars as a warning to the heaven of the Tang Dynasty."


    "Arrogance!"


    Hao Ran, an official of the Manchu Dynasty, did not know when he became arrogant.


    "Morton, don''t be rude!" Li Shimin quickly scolded. If you follow Morton''s ridicule, the whole court will be ashamed.


    Merton said angrily: "I''m not rude, but sigh. I''m afraid of the disaster star, but the disaster star hurts me. I''m not afraid of people, but people make me completely inside and outside!"


    The Minister of the Manchu Dynasty was suddenly silent. This time, God warned that there was nothing wrong with the Mohist school, but the Confucianism forcibly targeted the Mohist school. If the Mohist School hadn''t turned the tide, I''m afraid the crime of the disaster star could not be cleared this time.


    "I was deceived by the history books and misunderstood the ink sacrifice wine. Please forgive me!" Ma Jiayun and others quickly apologized.


    "If you kill people with words, how can you end it with a pardon? What else does the Ministry of punishment have to do?" Merton looked up at the beam column of the Tai Chi hall and said.


    Li Shimin immediately understood that what Ma Jiayun and the three had done was too much. Merton was really angry.


    He looked at Xu Jingzong and thought of the flattery that Xu Jingzong flattered. He couldn''t bear it. He turned to Yu Zhining. Yu Zhining was an important minister in the imperial court and the important minister in the east palace. Finally, he turned his eyes to Ma Jiayun. Ma Jia''s operation was the most radical and repeatedly attacked Merton, so he was the most appropriate to operate.


    "Ma Jiayun, as a eunuch offering wine, has repeatedly made rude remarks and believed in superstition. It can be seen that his knowledge is not good. He is specially exempted from offering wine to the eunuch as an example." Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    Ma Jiayun trembled all over and bowed his head and said, "I apologize!"


    The position of offering wine to the Imperial College, which he had deliberately obtained, flew again a few months before he got it. It can be said that he moved a stone and hit his own finger.

 Chapter 1244

    "What broom star is not a disaster star!"


    After the end of the early Dynasty, the contention about the early Dynasty soon spread all over Chang''an City, causing an uproar.


    "How is this possible?"


    Broom star is a disaster star that has been around for thousands of years. It turned out to be better overnight.


    "This is deduced by the MOH family. The broom star is reincarnated every 27789 days. It is said that people can see it twice at most in their life. Some people have a short life and can''t see it once." a common people in Chang''an gossip said.


    Originally, the cycle of sweeping the stars was jointly deduced by Taoism, Mohism and mathematics, but it was attributed to Mohism by the people of Chang''an. Who made Mohism famous?


    "So it''s lucky that we can see the broom star," a man raised his eyebrow. Before, it was the broom star of panic in the whole city. In the twinkling of an eye, it turned into a rare astronomical spectacle.


    "That''s nature!" Chang''an Baixing nodded naturally. According to the miracles created by mojiazi in the past, it is obvious that the people of Chang''an City believe that the broom star is not a disaster star.


    "Extra, extra, mojiazi sincerely invites Chang''an people to watch comets at night." a newsboy shouted in Chang''an city with a special issue.


    Ink magazine responded quickly and immediately worked overtime to print a special issue to explain the broom star.


    "NEWSBOY, come here! What is a comet!" a merchant said curiously.


    The newsboy nodded and said, "the comet is the broom star. The MOH family thinks the broom star is unlucky. Just like his Majesty''s advice, he changed the name of the broom star to comet."


    "What''s the saying?" the merchant didn''t understand.


    "You don''t know! Comet, fascine bamboo and comet are broom stars. They have the same meaning, but they sound different." the newsboy proudly showed off his new words.


    "There is indeed such a saying!" a scholar nodded. Although the meaning is the same, the comet no longer sounds like a disaster star, which makes people have to praise the erudition of Mozi.


    "And this year is the year of Zhenguan, and mohou named the broom star Zhenguan comet," the newsboy continued.


    "Zhenguan comet! Could it be......" the people suddenly felt something strange.


    The newsboy nodded and said, "yes, there are many comets in the sky, and the broom star is the most special. It not only appears once in 76 years, but also is the only comet that can be seen by the naked eye. Others can be observed with the help of Mohist and Taoist telescopes.


    "So, comets are not really disaster stars!" people said with amazement. The main reason why comets are called broom stars is that they are rare once in 76 years, and have a shape similar to brooms.


    Nowadays, broom star is not the only comet. Naturally, it is not a disaster star. Its rare surname has become a rare landscape. When night falls, many people in Chang''an City spontaneously look up at the sky and observe the rare astronomical phenomenon - comet Zhenguan.


    At the same time, Li Shimin boarded the stargazing platform at night, personally observed Zhenguan comet, and followed the 100 families of the Tang Dynasty behind him.


    "Good fortune lies in the place of evil, and bad fortune lies in the place of good fortune! All the time, the world has been afraid of the broom star and thinks it is a disaster star, but they don''t know how lucky they are to be able to see the astronomical spectacle once in 76 years." on the star viewing platform, Li Chun recited Taoist proverbs at the air outlet, a fairy spirit.


    "The words of the Taoist saint are really mysterious!" sighed Li Shimin. Li Tang was granted the title of Lao Tzu as his ancestor. Li Shimin couldn''t help but marvel at the wisdom of his ancestor. The broom star originally called disaster also hides such blessings.


    "Tell your majesty, Chang''an people watch Zhenguan comet one after another, and no one is afraid." pound hurried to report to Li Shimin.


    When Li Shimin was happy, he couldn''t help but regret: "drought, flood and earthquake are not the work of immortals. Even the cloud layer and the moon have proved that there are no immortals. I didn''t expect that even the broom star is not a disaster star now. It''s difficult that there are really no immortals in the world."


    Li Chunfeng shook his head and said: "No, I think it''s just the opposite. In the past, the ancients used to rely on their own naked eyes to explore the path of immortals. Broom star is one of them. However, I observed the vast starry sky at night and found that the starry sky is boundless and there are many stars like gravel. The more I feel my own smallness and the greatness of the universe, I believe there must be immortals in the world, The mistake of the broom star will not make the poor Taoist''s desire for immortality shrink back. On the contrary, it will reduce a wrong path for the Taoist school and make the Taoist way of seeking immortality further. "


    Li Shimin came forward, turned his telescope and looked at the stars at night. He couldn''t help being shocked by the vast stars and felt small. As the most powerful person in the world, he couldn''t help feeling inexplicable panic and more urgent to seek immortality in his heart.


    Hundreds of other families were also shocked by the vastness of the starry sky, and even Merton trembled at the deep starry sky.


    "The Taoist priest''s desire to seek the Tao moved me, but it''s hard to find immortal traces. It''s useless for me to have a desire to seek the Tao." Li Shimin regretted.


    Li Chunfeng shook his head and said, "don''t worry, your majesty. Taoism has entrusted Mohism to study more precise astronomical telescopes that can observe more distant stars, so as to eliminate the false and preserve the true, and find the real immortal blessed land."


    Li Shimin''s heart pounded and said, "Taoist priest can have a clue."


    Li Chunfeng nodded, pointed to the starry sky and said, "Your Majesty, look, this star field is very much like a fairy composed of stars, and this star field is very much like a hunter,......."


    "It''s really a bit like that." Li Shimin said in surprise.


    Li Chun said: "according to the Mohist theory, the farther the object looks, the smaller the star field can be seen through a telescope. If this star field is really transformed by the immortal body, how huge it will be. I''m afraid that''s the real immortal place."


    Zu Mingjun looked at the starry sky and said, "people can''t reach more than one mile, but the starry sky is endless. According to the existing level of mathematics, we can''t calculate its distance. If there are gods, I''m afraid only the vast starry sky can exist."


    Others nodded one after another. Some did not believe in the way of immortals. However, they could not help shaking their hearts when they saw the vast starry sky.


    "Merton, this time the Mohists and Taoists need to cooperate sincerely, so that they can find the place of immortals as soon as possible and let them feel the devout sacrifice of the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said eagerly in his eyes.


    Merton sighed slightly and came forward and said, "yes! The Mohists must do their best, but I don''t say anything."


    "Speak!" Li Shimin waved his big hand.


    Merton said positively, "as the Taoist holy place said, it is the blessing of the Tang Dynasty to find a place for immortals. However, it is not without hidden disasters. I''m afraid we look at us like mole ants in the eyes of immortals. How do you care about our life or death? Maybe we all die at the touch of immortals."


    "Don''t talk nonsense. The way of heaven is extremely public. How can immortals harm us? We offer sacrifices to immortals, and the immortals will naturally protect the Tang Dynasty." the Confucian people scolded Merton one after another, and even Li Shimin''s face sank.


    "Even if we have the protection of the Jade Emperor Sanqing saints and immortals in the Tang Dynasty, are there no immortals in the sky who are hostile to the Tang Dynasty, Shiva in Tianzhu, and the Buddha is not necessarily on which side? The big food country has Allah, the far west country, Zeus, Odin and other heavenly gods. There are still disputes in the world. Is there peace between the immortals?" Merton said, Suddenly, it was like a basin of cold water poured on everyone''s heart, and immediately washed away the joy of seeking immortality just now.


    "Don''t talk nonsense. Immortals are supreme. How can they intervene in earthly affairs." Yu Zhining scolded with an embarrassed face.


    Morton was not moved at all, and continued: "even if the gods are high, I''m afraid they don''t care about the lives of ordinary people. But for the mysterious and powerful unknown existence, whether it''s a blessing or a disaster to contact without authorization, there may be endless blessings and endless disasters. However, I heard that King Zhou of Shang Dynasty perished because he annoyed empress Nuwa."


    All the people on the star viewing platform were silent one after another. Although they all refuted mojiazi, they had to admit that mojiazi''s words were somewhat reasonable. After all, in the immortal system of China, there were not only the God of wealth, but also the God of disaster, let alone the lesson of King Zhou of Shang Dynasty before his subjugation.


    "You mean we don''t ask God to worship the Buddha, wouldn''t we miss the fate?" Li Shimin frowned. If we really annoy the gods one day in the future, it''s unknown that Datang will even destroy the country because of one word, but he wouldn''t want him to miss the fate anyway.


    Merton shook his head and said: "Of course not. If there are immortals, we mortals will meet them sooner or later. At that time, if we are insignificant mole ants, the immortals will not look at us more. If we have enough planning, we can exchange enough immortals from the immortals. What''s more, if Datang can make weapons against the immortals, his majesty may be able to fight with the immortals Sit still, so we should pursue the traces of immortals and strengthen ourselves to prepare for a rainy day. "


    All the people on the star viewing platform were in an uproar and looked at the Mo family one by one in horror. In their view, what the Mo family said was more than just great treachery, it was just nonsense to confuse the public, but they were not ordinary people, but hundreds of schools of thought, but the people with the highest knowledge in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, they knew that what the Mo family said was correct, and they could not place their fate on the kindness of others above.


    "I believe that King Zhou of Shang Dynasty must have resisted the gods in the war of gods, but he lost. Since then, there is no king in the world, only the son of heaven." Merton said meaningfully.


    "King of man, son of heaven!" Li Shimin''s eyes flashed. One is on an equal footing with immortals and the other is the son of heaven. Naturally, his status is different.


    Li Shimin looked at Yan shigu, who raised his pen to one side, and said seriously, "the language of today can''t be spread to the world. Historians record it in the secret history, which can only be read by emperors and leaders of hundreds of dynasties."


    "Yes!" Yan shigu said solemnly.


    "I''ll obey your orders!" the other hundred families took orders one after another. So far, everyone understood Li Shimin''s decision.


    Happiness and misfortune depend on each other. Sometimes, the happiness of immortals may also hide the anger of thunder.

 Chapter 1245

    The sun and moon were shining high, the stars were moving, and the broom star was high. It did not bring any disaster to Datang, nor did it affect the daily life of the people.


    Even after a while, people rarely look at the broom star in the sky. Even if the broom star disappears in the future, I''m afraid not many people care. This is the boring and ordinary life of ordinary people, and the so-called astronomy, advanced philosophy and the way of immortals are what all schools of thought need to worry about.


    perpetual calendar!


    This is the latest task to be completed by all schools of thought. After the imperial court decided to reform the calendar, Taoism was the first to seize the most valuable and practical calendar, while Mohism was assigned to reform the calendar.


    The lunar calendar, also known as the lunar calendar, needs to re calculate the calendar, which is a huge project. For this reason, Taoists dispatched hundreds of Taoists who are proficient in astronomy and calendar and occupied most of the rooms of the Taishi Bureau.


    On the Mohist side, only two people came, that is, master and apprentice Merton.


    "Shifu, will this drop the prestige of the Mohist school? Do you want me to call people in the Mohist village, not to mention a hundred people, even thousands of people." Wu Meiniang looked at the Taoist people with a big sister''s look.


    As soon as Merton pulled out the corner of his mouth, the Mohists were more technical talents. Even all the fine work of modifying the calendar like this didn''t work. At present, he stared at Wu Meiniang and said, "don''t be rude. The task of the Mohist school is very simple. It''s enough for you and me."


    "Seriously?" Wu Meiniang didn''t believe it. It was revising the astronomical calendar. How could it be such a simple thing.


    The fact proved that Wu Meiniang was a little worried. She found that the modification of the solar calendar was too simple, which made him incredible.


    "There are 365 days in a year, which are divided into 12 months, but what about the extra five days? Otherwise, we will also implement leap months!" Wu Meiniang frowned.


    "Of course not! The reason why the Mohist School formulated the solar calendar is to customize a calendar that remains unchanged for ten thousand years. There is only one leap day in four years. This difference can be almost ignored. If leap months are used, the difference is too great. If the solar calendar wants to be implemented, it must have unique advantages with the monthly calendar. These five days are allocated every 31 days of a month."


    "13579, 24680! And what day will the last four years add to the leap day?" asked Wu Meiniang like a crossbow.


    Merton thought: "13579 is the 31st day of the big month, and the rest is the 30th day of the normal month. As for the leap year, you can choose October, deduct one day from October, set it as the 29th day, and allocate it to November. In this way, 135791 is the big month, October is the 29th day, leap year is the 30th day, and other months are the 30th day of the small month."


    Wu Mei Niang said in surprise, "then why do you want to dig out October one day?"


    There were seven other normal months, and Merton picked out one day in October, which puzzled Wu Meiniang.


    "That''s because my Tang Dynasty has always implemented the post autumn beheading. October is the time of post autumn beheading every year. This month is unlucky. It''s better to go early," Merton explained.


    "I see?" Wu Meiniang suddenly realized. In this way, the big moon, the small moon and the leap year are perfectly solved, and the basic rules of the solar calendar have been set so far.


    Soon, Wu Meiniang wrote down the calendar of twelve months of the year.


    "It''s over? Meiniang inquired about Taoism, but the monthly calendar formulated there is dense. Tiangan and dizhi chronicles, the 24 solar terms guide the agricultural season, and so on. By contrast, are we simple." Wu Meiniang refused to accept the defeat. Although Mohism and Taoism have a cooperative relationship, Wu Meiniang doesn''t want Mohism to lose.


    Merton thought about it and added a sentence: "I take a ten day break in Datang. You divide thirty days into three lines and fix the ten day break time."


    Wu Meiniang''s eyes lit up, Shua Shua Shua several times, and then she made a new calendar, and then went to the Taishi Bureau.


    "Shifu, it''s not good. Taoism has added divination for bad luck and good luck to guide wedding dress and marriage in the lunar calendar." Wu Meiniang hurried back again.


    Merton waved helplessly and said, "we also add the sunrise time and sunset time every day."


    The biggest advantage of the solar calendar is that it remains unchanged for ten thousand years. Not only does it remain unchanged in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but also the sunrise and sunset time of each day. In this way, it can better guide people''s daily life.


    "Master, the Taoist calendar uses Chinese characters!"


    "Let''s use numbers! It''s more clear at a glance."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Under Wu Meiniang''s running around, although the Mohists and Taoists did not make a real fire, they were also competing in the dark. Unconsciously, both Mohists and Taoists completed the revision of the solar calendar and the lunar calendar.


    "Ink offering wine!"


    "Li Taishi!"


    In the Taishi Bureau, Merton and Li Chunfeng looked at each other, and both eyes showed a strong meaning of school examination. This time, Mohists and Taoists studied the solar calendar and the lunar calendar, which is not only a comparison between the solar calendar and the lunar calendar, but also a competition between Mohists and Taoists.


    A hundred schools of thought contend. Naturally, it is necessary to contend. Taoism has been inherited for thousands of years, with profound heritage. The comprehensive revival of Mohism is unstoppable. Taoism cultivates immortals and seeks the way of ghosts and gods, while Mohism pursues rationality and exposes feudal superstition. The two have had a confrontation since ancient times. Today Mohism and Taoism are more cooperative, but they do not have a higher mind.


    When the calendar and monthly calendar are displayed in front of everyone at the same time, they instantly attract everyone''s attention.


    "Big moon, small moon, October leap year, ten day holiday, digital year." Li Chunfeng looked at the solar calendar formulated by Mohism and couldn''t help looking surprised,


    He originally thought that the Mohist solar calendar was extremely simple and did not pay attention to the Mohist solar calendar at all, but he did not expect that the Mohist son would add so much practical knowledge to the monotonous solar calendar. Although it was far less rich than the monthly calendar, it was already extremely amazing.


    "These are just small tricks. The most important thing about a calendar is accuracy, and the most important benchmark to test whether the calendar is accurate is the summer solstice and winter solstice. Li Chunfeng looked at it and couldn''t help shrinking his eyes. He found that the summer solstice and winter solstice on the calendar formulated by Mohist school are no worse than the Taoist monthly calendar, and not only this year, but also the leap year in four years The sample is exactly the same


    The solar calendar has a cycle of four years. If the silk is not bad within four years, it means that the solar calendar is correct and can be used for ten thousand years.


    "The auspicious day of the zodiac, the twenty-four solar terms!...... Taoism really deserves its reputation and has made unique achievements in astronomy and calendar." as soon as Li Chunfeng put down his solar calendar, he heard Merton praise.


    Li Chunfeng can''t help but feel a little complacent. This time, he abandoned all the disadvantages of the previous calendar, pushed through the old and brought forth the new, and strive to be perfect.


    "Mohou''s solar calendar is extremely accurate, and the poor road is amazing." Li Chunfeng also nodded slightly. Although the Mohist solar calendar is simple but not simple, accuracy is the greatest advantage in the sun.


    "Mo deserves it. If Taoist Li was not generous and allowed bad people to spy on secrets, I''m afraid the Mohist solar calendar would only be generous." Merton shook his head.


    Wu Meiniang bowed her head in embarrassment. There was a momentum of secret competition between Mohism and Taoism in revising the calendar, but she haunted the important place of Taoism many times to watch the progress of Taoism. She was indeed a little impolite.


    "Mo Hou is polite. The 24 solar terms and the auspicious day of the Yellow Road are not secrets. On the contrary, the emergence of the Mohist school has opened my eyes. Since the calendar formulated by the Mohist School and the Taoist school has been completed, how about we report it to the imperial court." Li Chunfeng didn''t care.


    "Report to the imperial court?" Morton frowned. "This is natural, but Mo has not heard that a imperial court will implement two sets of calendars. No matter which one your majesty chooses, it will damage the harmony of Dao and Mo families."


    Li Chunfeng frowned slightly and said, "what do you mean by Mo Hou?"


    "Yin and Yang combined calendar." Merton said word by word.


    "Yin Yang calendar!"


    Immediately, the two families of Daomo shouted in unison.


    Merton nodded: "yes, there are sun and moon in the sky, and each has its own operation. Naturally, Datang needs both a solar calendar and a monthly calendar. No matter which one is lost, it is inconvenient, which is contrary to the significance of losing the formulation of the calendar."


    Li Chunfeng was immediately silent. The formulation of the calendar was originally to facilitate the people''s life, and it had to be said that the Mohist solar calendar was indeed unique, but he was unwilling to let Taoism completely give up the credit for the formulation of the calendar.

 Chapter 1246

    "Yin Yang combined calendar? But the lunar calendar and the solar calendar coincide with each other except the spring equinox, the summer solstice and the autumn equinox and the winter solstice. How can they combine Yin and Yang?" Wu Meiniang was surprised and asked everyone''s doubts.


    "It''s natural to seek common ground while reserving differences. We just need to coincide these four days, and the others operate separately and do not interfere with each other." Merton nodded.


    "Seek common ground while reserving differences!" Li Chunfeng suddenly moved in his heart and looked at Merton strangely. With his intelligence, he can naturally understand how much philosophy these four words contain.


    "How about the Spring Festival!" a Taoist frowned.


    "Naturally, it is the lunar calendar, that is, the lunar calendar. Other festivals are the same. The lunar calendar focuses on traditional festivals to guide the lunar season, and the solar calendar focuses on ten day off holidays to accurately record the year. The two do not conflict," Merton replied.


    The Taoist people looked a little slower.


    "And in order to show the sincerity of Mohism, Mo also has a big gift to offer." Merton stretched out her hand, and Wu Meiniang took out a beautifully made cardboard with high hardness and a stack of thick palm sized paper from a backpack behind her.


    "What is this?" Wu Meiniang was surprised. She didn''t know that the master had so much preparation.


    Merton picked up the beautiful cardboard and replied, "as a teacher, we call it the wall calendar. For ordinary people, we only need to know what day it is today, a few days off, and 24 solar terms are enough. Therefore, most people only need a cardboard to meet the calendar, so the wall calendar came into being."


    This time, Merton did not let Wu Meiniang do it, but directly wrote down the monthly calendar legislation in Chinese characters, marked the ten day rest day in a row every ten days, and then wrote the solar calendar in the blank of each grid. Soon, a beautiful wall calendar appeared in front of everyone.


    "Calendar!"


    Li Chunfeng looked at the beautifully made wall calendar and recalled all the yellow paper calendars before. He immediately made a judgment. The wall calendar is not only enough for the daily needs of ordinary people, but also more easy to understand and promote the world.


    "Mo calls it a calendar. The calendar shows the calendar of the year on a piece of paper, and each piece of the calendar carries the calendar of the day, daily sunrise time, sunset time, chronology of heavenly stems and earthly branches, bad luck and taboos, and 24 solar terms. However, all the calendars that can be used on each day are written on 365 pieces of paper, each day in the past, Just tear off one, which is simple, practical and clear at a glance. "Merton wrote down yesterday''s calendar in a calendar, tore it down and handed it to Li Chunfeng.


    Li Chunfeng looked at yesterday''s calendar in his hand. Although it was a thin piece of paper, it covered all the calendars, and there was no need to be like the previous calendars. People who were proficient in calendars needed to calculate bad luck and taboos. Even ordinary people knew the calendar like the back of their hands.


    "It seems that mohou is ready. What if Taoism doesn''t agree to cooperate?" Li Chunfeng asked jokingly.


    Merton said, "if Taoism disagrees, Mohism will also issue wall calendars and calendars. However, at that time, the calendar issued by Mohism will be dominated by solar calendar, which will be put in the front with simpler and clearer numbers and the font will be the largest."


    Li Chunfeng looked down. Sure enough, both the wall calendar and the calendar are mainly based on the lunar calendar, and Chinese characters are placed in the front, with the largest font.


    At present, the mainstream of the Tang Dynasty is Chinese characters, but the numbers are very easy to recognize and learn. In addition, there are Chinese characters to assist, which does not affect the use of the people.


    Merton then said, "at the same time, the Mohists will give up using ten day break, but adopt the seven Yao system, take the sun, moon and five stars of gold, wood, water, fire and earth as a week, take a break every week, and fully implement it in the Mohist village, and comprehensively promote ink magazines.


    "Seven Yao is a week!" Li Chunfeng frowned. Qiyao is another astronomical phenomenon in the Tang Dynasty. Qiyao represents the sun, moon, gold, wood, water, fire and earth. According to Taoist observation, the moon lasts seven days from the half full moon to the full moon; from the full moon to the half full moon, it lasts seven days. From the half full moon to the disappearance, it lasts seven days; from the disappearance to the half full moon, it lasts seven days. Seven days is also the cycle of the moon''s profit and loss, and Qiyao is a week There is a great market in Datang. It is possible to compete with the ten day rest system, let alone a rest in seven days, which is more popular than a rest in ten days.


    "Of course, Mo knows that once the two calendars run at the same time, it will certainly add trouble to the people''s life in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Mo decides to take the initiative to cooperate with Taoism, focusing on the monthly calendar, supplemented by the solar calendar, and combining Yin and Yang calendar, respecting customs and benefiting the people''s life." Merton said.


    Li Chunfeng frowned and thought that the combination of yin and Yang calendar can not only avoid the disputes caused by the difference between the solar calendar and the monthly calendar, but also not only the solar calendar is unique, not to mention the wall calendar and calendar made by the Mohist school, which are more helpful to promote the calendar. The benefits are obvious. If the Taoist school disagrees, the Mohist school can also put aside the Taoist school to promote the solar calendar alone, and even make a calendar to compete with the monthly calendar It was more passive.


    "Seeking common ground while reserving differences makes Li ashamed. This time, Li Chunfeng agreed to cooperate with Mohism on behalf of Taoism. This calendar reform, Mohism cooperated with Taoism and mainly promoted the yin-yang calendar." Li Chunfeng laughed and agreed.


    Li Chunfeng looks cheerful, but he is also a helpless choice. Although Taoism is the main part of the yin-yang combined calendar of Taoism and Mohism, there is no unique scenery of Taoism. If he refuses the yin-yang combined calendar, the legislative reform will not be able to bypass the sun calendar anyway. Even if Taoism refuses the Yin-Yang combined calendar, Mohism will not lose much.


    At that time, it doesn''t matter if the Mohist school launches the solar calendar alone, because the calendar is not the main business of the Mohist school. If it succeeds, the status of Taoism will be extremely embarrassing. The combination of Taoism and Mohism will benefit both, and failure will hurt both. No, it''s just the loss of the Taoist family. Li Chunfeng naturally knows how to choose.


    "Thank you for your success! Mo Mou leaves," outside the Taishi Bureau, Merton arched his hands to the Taoist school.


    "Mo Hou, go slowly!" Li Chunfeng saluted back.


    Then the carriage drove slowly away from the Taishi Bureau. On the carriage, Wu Meiniang looked at the yin-yang calendar agreed by the two Daomo families and couldn''t help being excited.


    "Seeking common ground while reserving differences, Shifu is really smart. If not, those Bulls would not agree to join the yin-yang calendar of Mohism." Wu Meiniang opened with a smile. Although the yin-yang calendar is mainly based on the lunar calendar of Taoism, Mohism has a place in the calendar.


    Merton shook his head and said, "seeking common ground while reserving differences is not only aimed at Taoism, but also the guideline for Mohism to get along with other hundred schools. In the future, it will be used to resolve conflicts with other hundred schools."


    "The policy of getting along with the other hundred schools of Mohism?" Wu Meiniang suddenly brightened her eyes and thought deeply.


    "And do you know that the calendar has always been the forbidden territory of Taoism, and this time, why did Taoism agree to seek common ground while reserving differences, let the Mohist participate in it and jointly push the yin-yang calendar?" Merton asked.


    "It''s not master''s power to work out a solar calendar suitable for ten thousand years." Wu Meiniang said with a smile.


    Merton shook his head and sneered, "that''s because if Taoism refuses, the loss will be greater. If you have strength, others will seek common ground with you while reserving differences. Otherwise, who wants others to take their own cake."


    Wu Meiniang immediately looked solemn and nodded solemnly


    Merton shook his head and said, "you only know one thing and don''t know the other. The calendar is just a side affair of Mohism and Taoism. Even if you give up it, it won''t hurt the foundation. It''s impossible to keep differences for the core concept of Mohism. I believe that Taoism is the same, which is the true meaning of seeking common ground while reserving differences."


    "Disciples are taught!" Wu Meiniang was impressed.

 Chapter 1247

    "Yin Yang calendar!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin''s eyes lit up when he looked at the wall calendar and calendar in his hand. The use of wall calendars and calendars is clear at a glance. As long as they are implemented in Datang, they can greatly facilitate people''s life.


    "Yes, since then, the calendar of yin and Yang in the Tang Dynasty has no more fallacies, and it can be used for ten thousand years. It is a well deserved perpetual calendar!" Li chunfengji said first.


    "Perpetual calendar!"


    Li Shimin could not help nodding slightly. The yin-yang calendar is the crystallization of the highest wisdom of Mohism and Taoism, which can almost represent the perfection of the calendar of the Tang Dynasty. He even found that these calendars include the upcoming solar and lunar eclipses, which shows the faith of Taoism and Mohism in this calendar.


    "Today''s sunrise is at the fourth quarter of Mao hour, and the sunset is at Xu hour. I thought it was also at the third quarter of Xu hour." Li Shimin saw that the sunrise time and sunset time were not uncommon. It was the first time he knew that there was a specific time for sunrise and sunset, and there was a deviation between sunrise and sunset.


    Merton smiled and replied: "Your Majesty, according to Mohist observation, the sunrise time and sunset time of Datang are changing every day. The longest day is before and after the summer solstice, sunrise at about a quarter of Mao hour and sunset at about a quarter of Xu hour. The length of the day is as long as seven hours. Before and after the winter solstice, the sunrise is the latest and the shortest, and the length of the day is less than five hours. Moreover, it is set according to the cycle of the sun, sunrise and sunset Every year, if it weren''t for the imprecise time of the Tang Dynasty, we could only use it to the moment. The sunrise time and sunset time would certainly be accurate again. "


    "The time of Datang is not accurate now? What do you mean, boy?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Merton smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, what time is it now and how long is it to noon."


    "I go to the morning Dynasty at the time of the morning. It''s probably already time now. It''s still early from noon?" Li Shimin guessed.


    "Father Pang, please go and see what time the sundial is!" Merton arched to pound.


    Pound said with a helpless smile, "ink sacrificing wine is joking. Today is a cloudy day, and the sundial can''t see the hour at all."


    Merton said: "There are sundials, crowing of chickens, hourglass, incense sticks and so on. However, the sundial is limited by cloudy and rainy days. The crowing of chickens is not accurate according to the length of winter and summer nights and human factors. Not to mention the hourglass and incense sticks, there are many influencing factors. Now the year, month and day of the Tang Dynasty have been accurate. The next goal of the Mohist school is to accurately measure the day, hour, moment and incense sticks of the Tang Dynasty , a cup of tea, a snap of the finger, a moment, etc., to make the time accurate, so as to be conducive to people''s life. "


    "Precise time!" Li Shimin and Li Chunfeng were stunned. They didn''t expect that the Mohist school should have such ambition.


    You should know that the calendar is used by the common people every day. If the time is accurate, it will be used almost every moment, which is self-evident for the benefits of Mohism.


    "If Mo Hou takes the initiative to expose the intention of Mohism, he will not be afraid of other hundred schools to follow suit and grab merit?" Li Chunfeng pointed to sang and scolded Huai, satirizing the contribution of Mohism to revising the solar calendar and Taoism to rush to repair and revise the calendar.


    Merton retorted: "Mo doesn''t dare to take such credit as his own. At this precise time, the Mohist school will invite hundreds of schools to participate. Whether it is cooperation with the Mohist school or his own research, the Mohist school will welcome it."


    "So Taoism can also participate?" Li Chunfeng raised his eyebrows.


    "That''s natural! Any hundred schools are welcome. If other hundred schools can do better than Mohism, mohmou sincerely congratulates them." Merton said confidently.


    Li Shimin was more proud when he saw the dispute between Mohism and Taoism. These hundred schools were very pure people and did everything that was beneficial to the country and the people. During his reign, it was his most proud thing to reproduce the contention of a hundred schools of thought.


    "Well, today''s matter is an astronomical calendar, and the precise time is not a matter of one day. We''ll discuss it another day!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    "I will obey your orders!"


    They looked at each other, and suddenly a strong smell of gunpowder filled the air. It was obvious that the two sides had the meaning of competition again.


    "Yin Yang calendar!"


    "Sell the perpetual calendar!"


    "Mohism and Taoism cooperate sincerely to make a perpetual calendar!"


    In Chang''an! A newsboy shouted loudly.


    In the Tai Chi hall, Mohist and Taoist are full of gunpowder, but there is harmony in Chang''an city. The two countries cooperate in a perpetual calendar. Mohist magazine made a grand report, published the front page headlines, and praised the contributions of Taoism. As for the Mohist solar calendar, it only occupies a large space of tofu.


    "Yin Yang calendar!"


    "Perpetual calendar!"


    The people of Chang''an City couldn''t help but be in an uproar. They bought ink magazines one after another to have a look. After seeing the wall calendar and calendar printed by ink magazines overnight, they were even more amazed.


    "How come there are still numbers and Chinese characters! The calendar shall prevail." an old man frowned at the two different calendars on the wall calendar.


    "The two calendars are accurate. The Gregorian calendar is a number, and the lunar calendar is the first day, which is a Chinese character. Those who do farm work are mainly based on the lunar calendar. If you want to see the changes of the four seasons, naturally the Gregorian calendar is the main one," the newsboy explained.


    "I can''t remember the first day when I go out every day. It''s much more convenient to have this calendar." the old man''s eyes brightened, satisfied and bought a beautiful calendar and left.


    "I prefer calendars. It''s convenient and fast to tear one out of each one. There are sunrise and sunset, bad and auspicious taboos. My shop is going to open in a few days. I''m going to turn over the old yellow calendar. Now I don''t need it anymore." a merchant picked up a calendar and couldn''t put it down.


    With the publication and publicity of Ink magazine, calendar and wall calendar quickly spread to thousands of families in Chang''an City, deeply affected people''s life, and quickly spread throughout the Tang Dynasty.


    "Yin Yang calendar?"


    In a quiet Taoist temple, a Taoist wearing yin-yang Taoist clothes could not help frowning at the yin-yang calendar in his hand.


    "Tell the Taoist priest that this yin-yang calendar was jointly founded by Mohist Zi and Taoist Li Chunfeng,......" in front of the yin-yang Taoist priest, a little Taoist said respectfully.


    "Hum! Li Chunfeng, Li Chunfeng is still a person, but it''s a little bad to see through Yin and Yang with Li Chunfeng''s attainments. The most important thing is that this Mo family has so deep research on the sun." Yin and Yang Taoist taboo Mo Shendao.


    For a long time, the yin-yang family has the deepest attainments in the way of Yin-Yang and five elements, and the Mo family has even shown signs of surpassing the yin-yang family in the way of the sun. The old business of the yin-yang family has been peeped into the sky by hundreds of other families. How can we not let the yin-yang family be like a great enemy.


    "MOH family?" the little Taoist said with surprise. Although the yin-yang family can''t live in seclusion, he is also like thunder to the Mexican family.


    "Someone once asked the yin-yang family to deal with the Mo family. The Taoist didn''t want to do it. Now don''t blame the yin-yang family. If you want to blame it, blame your hand too long." the yin-yang Taoist said fiercely on his face.


    "Master, do you want to deal with the Mohist school? But now the Mohist school is in a high position. Will the yin-yang school have a bad relationship with it?" the little Taoist worried.


    "Hum! As a teacher, we should not only deal with the Mohists, but also sink the whole Mohist again. This time, when we go out of the mountain, we will go out of the mountain with the fortune of the yin-yang family for a hundred years. The famous Mohist who has spread for thousands of years will open a knife to revive the name of the yin-yang family." the yin-yang Taoist got up and said


    Over the past hundred years, the yin-yang family has come out of the mountain again, and the situation must be surging in the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 1248

    "Master, this four-wheel carriage is made by Mohism?" the little mage of Yin-Yang family on the carriage looked very strange.


    Yin Yang Zi snorted coldly, "carriages have existed since ancient times. Mohist Zi is just a trick."


    "How could the old carriage be so comfortable?" the little mage muttered in his heart. It''s not that he hasn''t sat in an old-fashioned carriage. It will hurt people''s bumpy ass. it''s not as comfortable as a carriage made by Mohist school.


    "It is said that this brick road was also invented by Mohist Zi."


    "This is also Mohist......"


    Along the way, the little mage was like a child who had just walked out of the mountain village. He was very surprised to see anything, especially related to mojiazi.


    "Only five days, Chang''an City has arrived!"


    The little mage screamed, and the carriage and brick road greatly facilitated the transportation. They arrived at Chang''an City in only five days.


    Yin and Yang moved in his heart and looked at the towering Chang''an city through the window. He was moved for the first time.


    In the eyes of ordinary people, you can only see the prosperity of Chang''an City, while in the eyes of yin and Yang families, you can see the towering national fortune of the Tang Dynasty.


    "The prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty!" Yin and Yang took a deep breath. The Tang Dynasty has just been established for more than 20 years, and it is incredible that it can catch up with the national movement in the peak period of the former Sui Dynasty.


    You know, after the efforts of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang built the dragon vein of the Grand Canal, which made the national movement of the former Sui Dynasty reach the peak.


    At this moment, yin and Yang looked back at the brick road he had passed, and suddenly woke up. The Grand Canal is indeed a super dragon, and the brick road under his feet is not a dragon?


    "The MOH family once said that all roads lead to Chang''an. No, it should be all dragon veins lead to Chang''an." Yin and Yang said again.


    It is the brick roads that converge in Chang''an city like dragon veins, which makes the Qi of Datang soar in a short time.


    "It''s said that the Mojia Xiangfu family is building a bridge in a wide range. The Mojia Zili focuses on building a new Shu Road, and even doesn''t hesitate to open mountains and dig holes. Once the Mojia is completed and integrates the Dragon veins of the world, the Tang Dynasty will develop the supreme dragon vein, and then the Qi of the Tang Dynasty will rise to a higher level." the little mage follows Yinyang Zi to learn the art of yin and Yang. His eyes are very poisonous and shocked.


    "The so-called prosperity is bound to decline. It''s interesting to harvest in such a stormy weather. The Mohist School tied the Mohist School and the Tang Dynasty together. This is the fate of all schools of thought, but the luck of the left and right dynasties, which is the specialty of our yin-yang family." Yin-Yang Zi said confidently.


    "Get out of the way quickly. If you delay your Majesty''s Taishan Zen, you won''t be able to keep your ten heads!" just as yin-yang was immersed in his own world, a rough soldier pushed yin-yang aside directly. Free up the brick road.


    "Master, we are right to come to Chang''an city. We met emperor Zhenguan''s Taishan Fengchan!" the little mage said excitedly. The yin-yang family likes the people of Qi luck most, and the most prosperous in the world is the emperor of the current Dynasty.


    "Mount Tai''s Zen worship? It''s just a little trick of Confucianism!" Yin and Yang sneered at the corners of his mouth. As the Yin and Yang masters who control the way, they have always hidden in the dark and control the lifeblood of people all over the world. He envies, envies and hates this kind of Mount Tai''s Zen worship, and his words are sour.


    "But it''s a good thing for them that emperor Zhenguan left Beijing." for the yin-yang family, the best time to make trouble is when the emperor left Beijing.


    "It is said that the MOH family has broken through Mount Tai to become a Buddhist. Mount Tai is not the highest mountain in the world, even the broom star." the little mage gloated.


    "No wonder there are so few convoys for Taishan''s Zen worship." Yin and Yang frowned,


    Between the words, I saw a team of cavalry escorting a convoy slowly. Although it was a huge convoy in the eyes of ordinary people, I knew the difference between heaven and earth after seeing Yang Guang''s travel.


    "What a powerful imperial spirit!" Yin and Yang Zi surprised Hong in the motorcade and shocked his heart. This imperial spirit was no less than Yang Guang after the completion of the Grand Canal. If Li Shimin had not left Beijing, the Yin and Yang family would have no chance to move in Chang''an city.


    It was not until Li Shimin left that the yin-yang family teachers and disciples became calm and strode close to Chang''an city.


    The capital of any country is the place where the national fortune of a country is located, which is the real stage of Yin-Yang family.


    Just entering Chang''an City, the bustling atmosphere almost made the two teachers and disciples who lived in seclusion in the mountains indulge in the world.


    It''s better for Yin and Yang Zi to see the world. The little mage who just came out of the mountain is dizzying. She looks like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.


    "Don''t be ashamed. Our yin-yang family controls the national fortune and is naturally detached from the world. How can we be eroded by these worldly customs full of copper smell." Yin-Yang son taught his apprentice that iron is not steel.


    The little mage looked away from the fragrant Mohist fried chicken shop like beating chicken blood and said, "master, why don''t we go to Mohist school now, find the shortcomings of Mohist School and reap the luck of Mohist school."


    Yin and Yang shook his head and said, "don''t worry first. There are hundreds of schools of thought competing in Chang''an City, and the Qi luck is entangled. We need a comprehensive understanding to specify the method to deal with Mohism. Moreover, Chang''an City has more terrible Qi luck than Mohism, that is Confucianism."


    Confucianism since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court has pursued the exclusive respect for Confucianism. The luck developed by Confucianism for hundreds of years has made the yin-yang family salivate. However, what makes the yin-yang family frustrated is that even if the yin-yang family has the opportunity to harvest the luck of a dynasty, it can''t help Confucianism. Even if the dynasties change, Confucianism is still as stable as Mount Tai.


    This time, a hundred schools of thought contend in the Tang Dynasty, and the status of Confucianism has been challenged, which makes the yin-yang school see hope and want to see if there is a chance to start.


    "Guozijian!"


    "Primary school, private school!"


    "Library!"


    Yin and Yang Zi walked through the important place of Confucianism, but found that even if a hundred schools of thought contend in the Tang Dynasty, Confucianism''s luck did not lose a penny. On the contrary, because of the general construction of primary schools and libraries, it has a deeper connotation than before.


    "Go to Taoism!" Yin and Yang waved his big hand.


    "Stargazer!"


    "Xuandu temple!"


    Yin Yang Zi looked at the vast and mysterious Qi Yun of Taoism and wondered more in his heart. It is said that the two factions of inner Dan and outer Dan of Taoism have broken up. However, the Qi Yun of Taoism has not lost a penny. On the contrary, the split outer Dan sect has cultivated a new Qi Yun of all schools of thought, which is enough to be mentioned in the same vein with the new geography.


    Although the Qi luck of the Taoist waidan school and the geographical chain is still very weak, from the perspective of yin and Yang Zi, we can naturally see that its Qi luck is moving upward and will not be weaker than other schools in the future.


    "Doctors have grown to this point?" when the yin-yang family teachers and disciples passed by the Mo hospital, they couldn''t help taking a breath. It''s incredible that the original medics have been lucky enough not to lose to Confucianism and Taoism.


    "It''s strange that the way of Qi luck has always been prosperous and declining. Now, hundreds of schools of thought contend and compete for Qi luck. Instead, hundreds of schools of thought rise and Qi luck doubles at the same time." the little mage was puzzled.


    "Maybe this is the advantage of a hundred schools of thought contending. Fortunately, the legalist school continues to dormant! Finally, there is a normal one." Yin and Yang Zi was relieved when he saw that the legalist Qi and fortune had not changed much.


    Finally, yin and Yang Zi came to the south gate and was shocked to see the black flag of Mohism flying high in the ink technology exhibition. In his eyes, it was not a black flag, but a dark road of Mohism.


    "This is only one of the three veins of Mohism!" Yin and Yang Zi shocked. Only one pulse of Mohism village is so strong. If we can harvest Mohism''s Qi this time, the transportation of yin and Yang will certainly go further.

 Chapter 1249

    "A hundred schools of thought contend, and their luck soars. This is also an opportunity for my yin-yang family!" Yin-Yang Zi looked at the doubled luck of other 100 schools, not only stupid.


    When a hundred schools of thought contend, there must be ups and downs, losses and wins. When they fall together, that is the opportunity for the Yin and Yang family to harvest Qi and fortune.


    "Master, what are we waiting for?" the little mage said excitedly, looking like he was going to punch Confucianism and ink, kick Taoism and threaten the three religions and nine schools in Chang''an city.


    "Fool! You think that the Yin and Yang family can single out hundreds of schools of thought." Yin and Yang scolded his apprentice, "in addition to the new geographical vein, which one hundred schools has been inherited for thousands of years. Confucianism also subdued the other hundred schools with the help of imperial power, but the other hundred schools are still not satisfied, which makes today''s hundred schools of thought contend."


    "Please teach me!" the little mage bowed his head and asked:


    Yin and Yang combined their hands and looked like a fairy. Lang said, "all the schools of thought came into being. They can''t completely defeat them. Even if Confucianism secretly suppressed Mohism for thousands of years, Mohism is still reborn."


    The little mage nodded.


    "The greatest contributor to the revival of Mohism is the Mohist family, so the Mohist family is the son of Mohism''s luck, while other hundred families have similar children of luck, such as Li Tai, who created a geographical chain, the descendants of the Confucius family, who created homonymy in Confucianism, the ancestor of the chain of arithmetic, and even the returning Buddhist monk Xuanzang, who also shoulders the luck of Buddhism." Yin Yang Zi''s careful teaching.


    The little mage couldn''t help but rejoice. According to the master, isn''t he the son of Yin-Yang family.


    "Aren''t you?" Yin and Yang poured cold water on the disciple mercilessly, "The son of Qi Yun is not pity by God, but strives for it step by step. Only when he has enough influence on the 100 families can he be counted. Even if he is a teacher and passes on the position of yin and Yang son to you, how can other people in the Yin and Yang family obey you? Even if the Yin and Yang families listen to your orders, what can you do?"


    The little mage bowed his head decadent and looked dejected.


    "However, the son of Qi Yun is not without flaws. As long as he is a person, there will be flaws. If a son of Qi Yun has flaws, the hundred families will have flaws. Now the task of Yin-Yang family is to find a son of Qi Yun with weaknesses, so as to solve the situation of the hundred families." Yin-Yang son said proudly.


    "But it''s hard for ordinary people to see mojiazi and others, let alone observe carefully and find out their flaws." the little mage frowned.


    "There was no chance before, but now there is a great opportunity. It is said that Mohist Zi publicly said that Mohist''s next goal is to redefine the time of the day and be sure to be accurate. Other hundred schools naturally don''t want Mohist Zi to do great work alone and are ready to participate. This is the best time for yin-yang school to observe all schools." Yin and Yang have their own way, and the combination of yin and Yang of Mohism and Taoism has won such a great reputation. How can other schools of thought not be excited, and those who have ideas naturally want to take a share.


    "Define the time of the day!" the little mage was very excited. The calendar can only be used every day, sometimes even when it is needed, and the definition of the time of the day can be used all the time. This is incomparable for the promotion of the fame of 100 schools. No wonder other 100 schools will be moved.


    "The sky is dry and things are dry. Be careful of the fire and candles. It''s already a moment, when it''s Dangdang!" just after the two teachers and disciples said, a watchman knocked the gong and passed by, shouting the hour.


    "What''s the matter?" the little mage was surprised. It wasn''t just when it was already time that a watchman sounded the gong. Why did a quarter of an hour later still have a watchman telling the time.


    "The little mage doesn''t know. Recently, the imperial court doesn''t know what to do. It''s killing me to ask the watchman to report the hour every minute!" the gray haired watchman said sadly. In the past, the watchman usually reported the hour every hour, but now it directly increases the workload by several times.


    Yin and Yang frowned and said, "it seems that Confucianism also wants a share!"


    Confucianism can only control the court. Confucianism speeds up the frequency of time reporting and directly makes the time accurate to the moment! It is indeed a great convenience to the people''s life.


    "Go and have a look. Taoism has made a super large sundial to accurately set the time within a moment." suddenly, there was an exclamation in the streets of Chang''an City, and other people couldn''t help but be in an uproar. Hundreds of schools of thought were ready to redefine the time. In Chang''an City, it was very popular. Now Taoism has also made a move, and other 100 schools naturally like it very much.


    "Accurate to within a moment!" Yin and Yang raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, Taoism went further and immediately took his apprentice to check.


    When they came to the street, they saw a huge sundial placed in front of an open space. Under the irradiation of the sun, the shadow of the sundial just fell between the last moment and the second moment. Between these two moments, there were two strange symbols, and there were some silk thin lines between the symbols.


    "It''s said that this strange symbol is called word! And the silk thin line is called second. Where the sundial points to, it means time, quarter, word and second." a Chang''an people was surprised. This is probably the most accurate time scale he has ever seen.


    "Taoism has such a profound heritage that it has such a fortune!"


    In the crowd, yin and Yang looked at the latest sundial made by Taoism and couldn''t help frowning. Confucianism carried the energy of the dynasty hall. The Yin and Yang family was trying to shake it. The Qi of Taoism was also deep and thick, and the Yin and Yang family couldn''t find a chance.


    "Master, that Taoist''s Qi machine is so powerful!" the little mage suddenly exclaimed, pointing to a Taoist in front of him.


    "No, that''s Li Chunfeng!"


    As soon as Yin and Yang Zi''s face changed, he quickly took the little mage and disappeared into the crowd. Li Chunfeng is the head of Taoism. If he detects the Yin and Yang family, it will be very disadvantageous to them.


    Li Chunfeng seemed to feel something. Looking back, he only found a figure of Yin-Yang Zi leaving in Taoist clothes. Although he frowned, there were not many Taoists who disliked the inner Dan sect since the division of the inner Dan and the outer Dan of the Taoist school, and he didn''t take it to heart. Looking back, he continued to talk with Gongshu Hong.


    "Thanks to the public loser''s help, we can make such an accurate sundial." Li Chun said first to Hongji.


    The most advanced craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty are Mohist and Gongshu. In terms of precise time, Taoism and Mohist are competitors, and Gongshu and Mohist are also competitors. The two choose to cooperate to make the latest sundials.


    "Taoist priest Li is very polite. Taoist school will re time. How can the public loser stand idly by for the benefit of the country and the people?" said public loser Honglang.


    "Unfortunately, it can only be accurate to seconds, but the smallest suddenly still can''t be done." Li Chunfeng regretted.


    Second is the time to breathe and breathe. It is the smallest time that can be accurate in the world. The latest sundial of Taoism is already the most accurate timing unit in the world. Public losers can guarantee that even the Mohist school can not create a more accurate timing tool. " Gongshu Hong proudly said.


    Hearing the speech, Li Chunfeng nodded with satisfaction. This time, he took the road of Mohism and wanted to make Mohism have no way to go, in order to revenge Mohism for taking the credit for rebuilding the calendar.


    "I naturally believe in the craftsmanship of the public loser, but Marquis Mo has always had tricks. I think it must be a blessing for the people all over the world to be able to create more time tools that are more beneficial to the country and the people."


    Li Chunfeng said the scene. Although he was very satisfied with the sundial this time, the Mohist school could not be underestimated. Even if the Mohist school could create another miracle in the end, at least this time, Taoism was better than Confucianism.


    "Taoist sundial!"


    Yu Zhining not only frowned when he heard the servant''s report, but Taoism had been accurate to seconds, which made Confucianism extremely embarrassed. Could he let the watchman shout and time it.


    Xu Jingzong immediately answered: "Don''t worry, my Lord. Even though the Taoist sundial is extremely accurate, the shortcomings of the sundial have not been solved. First, in rainy days and nights, the sundial will have no effect, but the watchman can still accurately tell the time. Second, the sundial can only stay in one place. Should the world go to the sundial to see where the sun is when they need time? It''s not enough to watch the sun directly, but the watchman can still tell the time Although Confucianism has lost in accuracy, it is better in practice. "


    Xu Jingzong''s praise made Yu Zhining feel much better.


    "Now it''s up to the Mohists to break the game!" Yu Zhining said slightly. Like Li Chunfeng, Confucianism and Taoism have achieved the ultimate in accuracy and practicality. They don''t believe that Mohists can turn the world upside down.

 Chapter 1250

    Not only Confucianism and Taoism are staring at Mohism, but even other schools of thought are also staring at Mohism. However, Mohism has not moved at all.


    "What''s the matter? Why hasn''t the Mo family been moving? Did they take the initiative to admit defeat?" the little mage of Yin-Yang family frowned.


    "Never underestimate the Mo family. I used to observe this man with the skill of looking at Qi. This man is unfathomable. He is the most strange life style I have seen in my life. Coupled with his experience of several Jedi turnover, I''m afraid even Confucianism and Taoism don''t think the Mo family has conceded defeat." Yin Yangzi said seriously.


    "How come the Mohist school hasn''t responded." the little mage said unconvinced.


    Yin and Yang shook his head and said, "since the idea of precise one-day time was put forward by Mohist Zi, Mohist Zi must have made up his mind. In my opinion, Mohist Zi must have waited for the opportunity or encountered some difficulties."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Master, Taoism and Confucianism have already made moves, and Chang''an city is full of rumors that the Mohists have conceded defeat. Why hasn''t master made moves yet." in the Mohist house, Wu Meiniang looked worried and said to Merton.


    Merton took a sip of tea and said calmly, "what''s the matter? Although Confucianism and Taoism have made progress, they have not overcome the shortcomings of existing time tools. It''s easy for the Mohist school to surpass them.


    "Seriously! Master, don''t deceive disciples?" Wu Meiniang was a little unconvinced. In his opinion, Confucianism and Taoism had reached the extreme, and it was difficult to improve any more.


    "Oh! Prince Ben also wants to see the latest masterpiece of Mohism." suddenly a familiar voice came, and Li Chengqian came over, followed by Li Zhi.


    "Your Majesty went to Mount Tai for Zen. His Highness the prince is in charge of the country. How can he have time to come to Mo mansion?" Merton got up to salute and said unexpectedly.


    "When my father and Emperor leave Beijing, all government affairs are naturally taken care of by hundreds of officials. Where does the prince have any government affairs? Just when the ninth brother misses Changle, the palace takes the ninth brother to see Changle." Li Chengqian said with a smile, in fact, Li Chengqian is not all right. During the last period of state supervision, he and Merton united to reform the post station, which can be described as a remarkable political achievement. Now, when he is in state supervision again, he also wants to show his hands and feet, but he finds that everything has been arranged by Li Shimin. He is only a person who carries the seal. It is just when Li Zhi is making a fuss to come to Merton''s house that Li Chengqian thinks of Merton and wants to ask for help An idea. I just heard what Merton said.


    Soon, Princess Changle came to hear the news, and the brothers and sisters met happily.


    "By the way, my brother-in-law said that he already had a way to surpass Taoism and Confucianism. I don''t know if I can let the young slaves see it." suddenly, Li Zhidao on one side cured him.


    Suddenly, people''s eyes came one after another. Merton was helpless and said, "it''s very simple. The Confucian method of watchmaking is to let the people of Chang''an hear time, while the Taoist sundial is to let people see time. The Mohist school only needs to combine these two methods into one."


    "You can hear time and see time?" they frowned and looked at Merton in some confusion.


    Merton looked up slightly and looked up.


    Wu Meiniang was immediately impressed and said, "what master said is heaven! No, it should be on a high building."


    They suddenly realized that if the sundial was placed high, they could easily see and hear further.


    "But the sundial is so heavy, how can it be moved to a high building, let alone seen! You can''t hear the Gong!" questioned Princess Changle.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the principle of the sundial is to use the shadow of the sun to represent time, and it can''t be used in cloudy days and nights. I''m ready to use a huge pointer to replace the shadow. Where the hollow sundial points to, it represents which time. Only one person can easily solve the shortcomings of the sundial."


    "Wonderful!" Li Chengqian exclaimed.


    "It''s best to build a hollow sundial on all sides so that everyone can see the most accurate time as soon as they look up," Merton added.


    Wu Meiniang immediately brightened her eyes and quickly wrote it down.


    "As for the method of watchmaking, it''s better to do it. The sound of gongs is too small. The neighbors can hear it, but I''m afraid they can''t hear it across the street. Mo is going to change it into a Buddhist Buddhist bell. Every morning, the bell of the temple is heard in half of Chang''an city. Mo puts the clock in a hollow sundial on all sides, knocks it at midnight, twice in the ugly room, three times in the Yin,... As a result, the people You only need to hear the sound to know what time it is. "


    As soon as Mo ton finished, everyone instantly understood the idea of Merton. He couldn''t help thinking of the extraordinary idea of Mo Zi''s family. He even came up with the whimsy, which not only perfectly solved the shortcomings of the sundial and the way to fight more, but also integrated the essence of Taoist Confucianism and Buddhism.


    "This method Mo calls it four side clock!" Merton smiled knowingly.


    "The four clocks are really appropriate. Once they are completed, they will surely have hundreds of skills and greatly facilitate the life of Chang''an city." Li Chengqian exclaimed.


    "Then what are we waiting for? Build it quickly! I''m the best at building high-rise buildings in Mohism." Wu Meiniang immediately rubbed her hands and said.


    Merton sighed: "it''s not difficult to build a four-way clock, but if you want the whole city to see it, it needs to be very high, but it involves a difficult problem, that is, exceeding the system."


    "Overstepping the system?" Wu Meiniang immediately stopped. According to the regulations of the imperial court, civil buildings can not exceed the imperial palace. There is no doubt that the four clocks that can be seen by the whole city are overstepping the system. You know that the Mohist construction of the maternal and child hospital building and the Mohist organ city strictly abide by this bottom line. "


    "No, the Buddhist pagodas are up to tens of feet high. The wild goose pagoda built for the empress changsun has seven floors. How can it not exceed the system?" Wu Meiniang asked.


    "That''s where the gods are worshipped. Naturally, it can exceed the system." Li Zhi explained.


    "But the four bells built by the Mohist school, although not dedicated to gods, are also beneficial to the country and the people. Isn''t it more meaningful than the ethereal gods praying?" Wu Meiniang said angrily.


    Merton put out his hand to stop the disciple''s complaint and said, "the reason why I didn''t act as a teacher is to ask your majesty to pardon the four clock overstepping the system when his majesty Taishan returns from Zen."


    Li Chengqian moved in his heart and said with a loud laugh, "it''s easy to do this. Why wait for his father''s return? His father must agree to such things that benefit the country and the people. This palace is just supervising the country. He can agree to it tomorrow morning. Brother Mo will certainly give his father a big surprise if he can be built when his father returns."


    The four side clock is not a place where people live, so it doesn''t matter whether it exceeds the system or not. Not to mention the great use of the four side clock, Li Shimin''s chances of passing the matter are almost certain. Li Chengqian just took the opportunity to ask Merton for a favor.


    "That''s simple. You just need to build four clocks on the Mohist mechanism city. With a five story mechanism city as the foundation, it''s enough to be built when the emperor returns." Wu Meiniang said confidently.


    Everyone nodded. According to Merton''s description, this four clock is not difficult. It is not difficult to defeat the highly skilled Mohist village. Building it on the Mohist mechanism city will save more than half of the time. I believe Chang''an city will add another landmark soon.


    However, Merton shook his head and said, "mermou has not started the construction of four clocks. In addition to exceeding the system, there is another problem."


    "There''s still a problem?" the people frowned. In their view, the idea of four clocks has reached perfection. Once it is published, it is enough to crush the corona and watch, so as to further improve the reputation of Mohism.


    Merton shook his head and said with a wry smile, "it is true that once the clock comes out, it is easy for Mohism to win over Taoism and Confucianism. However, in this way, a hundred schools only strive for victory or defeat, but they lose the real significance of a hundred schools of thought, that is, to study more advanced knowledge."


    As soon as Merton said this, everyone was silent. It had to be said that the mind of the Mohists really shocked them.


    "This time, what the hundred schools are arguing about is to redefine the time of the day. Whether it is watch, sundial or even four clocks, they seem to go further in time, but they also do not touch the essence of time."


    "The essence of time?" Li Chengqian was stunned and looked at Merton.


    The others were also confused and didn''t understand Merton''s meaning.


    "What is time? Time is like running water, with eternal movement, continuity and order of change." Merton said Mohist terms, and everyone was at a loss.


    "That''s what Confucius said. Time passes like this, day and night!" Merton said helplessly.


    People suddenly realized what Merton meant.


    Merton sighed in his heart that although he was a child of Mohism, he could not sigh about Confucius'' wisdom. In a simple sentence, he summarized the essence of time and was easy to understand.


    "Our common timing units are the time of year, month and day, and the newly added words and seconds of Taoism. However, twelve months a year, thirty days a month, twelve hours a day, eight quarters an hour, and one quarter is equal to three words. However, can you know how many seconds a word is equal to and how many seconds a day?" Merton continued.


    They shook their heads. The Taoist definition of second is to breathe and breathe. However, people''s breathing is long and short, so it can''t be accurate at all.


    Although the four sides of the clock are the essence of all classes of authors, they are merely a mere act of their own, but without any truth, and without a bit of ink art. If they are rushed out, they will be laughed at by hundreds of people. Therefore, Mo Mou is going to make an ink technique, which can accurately calculate every word and moment per second, even to the time of year, but it has been without any clue. "


    "Don''t worry, master. It''s not a matter of a hundred schools of thought competing overnight. One day, master will peep into the essence of time and make the most accurate time." Wu Meiniang said confidently to master.


    Merton gave Wu Meiniang a white look. As an apprentice, he didn''t share his worries with the master. Instead, he wanted to gnaw at the old man. He waved him out to take care of his younger martial sister and younger martial brother.


    When Li Chengqian and Li Zhi come, Princess Changle happens to accompany them. Wu Meiniang is most suitable to look after Mosha and mertan.


    "I also want to see Mosha and mertan!" after Wu Meiniang left, Li Zhi couldn''t sit still, got up and went to the three-story villa.


    Merton frowned as he watched Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi leave one after another. Could it be that the wheel of history would repeat itself, and the two would finally come together.


    "Hahaha, my fair lady, the gentleman is happy, and the ninth brother has grown up!" Li Chengqian flashed his eyes and laughed.

 Chapter 1251

    It has to be said that Wu Meiniang, who is 19 years old, is in her prime. Coupled with her status as a senior sister of Mohism, it can be said that there are few unmarried girls with beauty and wisdom in Chang''an City, which has attracted the admiration and pursuit of countless dandy teenagers in Chang''an city.


    Many dignitaries have asked Merton to propose marriage for a long time. However, Merton refused on the grounds of the freedom of Mohist love, but did not prohibit others from pursuing Wu Meiniang. Although Chang''an talent is like a crucian carp crossing the river, none of Wu Meiniang whose eyes are higher than the top can see it. Until now, it is natural for Li Zhi, who loves mature women, to like Wu Meiniang.


    Although it is normal for a 19-year-old woman to be unmarried in later generations, it is rare for a girl to be unmarried at the age of 19 in the Tang Dynasty, which is even rarer than the older leftover women in later generations. For this reason, the Yang family is worried.


    However, Wu Meiniang, who is already full of wings, only listens to her master''s words. Yang''s words have no binding force at all, and Merton''s marriage to Wu Meiniang is also natural.


    Now Li Zhi, king of Jin, even pursues Wu Meiniang, which makes Merton feel how powerful the inertia of history is.


    "Mohism has always advocated the freedom of love and the willingness of both parties. If Meiniang is willing, as a master, Mo is naturally happy to see its success. If Meiniang is unwilling, his Highness the king of Jin can''t oppress people with imperial power!" Merton raised his eyebrows.


    Li Chengqian laughed and said, "that''s natural. I believe in the character of the ninth brother."


    Now Li Tai has created a hundred schools and completely abandoned the struggle for the throne. Although Li Chengqian has a stable crown prince and does not take Li Zhi as a competitor, Wu Meiniang is the future successor of Mohism clearly stated by Merton. Once Li Zhi marries Wu Meiniang, he will almost integrate the power of the whole Mohism under his command, which makes Li Chengqian a little alert.


    Merton and Li Chengqian are also intelligent people. They have been thorough by the end of their speech.


    Princess Changle could not help sighing. Born in the royal family, in addition to enjoying prosperity and wealth, these secret intrigues were also inevitable, and there was nothing she could do as a princess.


    "When I came here today, besides accompanying my ninth brother to visit Changle, I also wanted to ask brother Mo for advice." Li Chengqian suddenly said.


    Merton nodded and said, "Your Highness, please speak!"


    Li zhinai came for Wu Meiniang, and Li Chengqian, who was in charge of overseeing the country''s affairs, took the time to come. Naturally, he would not be idle and bored. Obviously, he also had important things.


    "At present, the biggest trouble in the palace is the war between Xue yantuo and East Turks. Yi man Khan heard that his father went east to Mount Tai to become a Zen priest. He thought that the time had come for Xue yantuo to assemble 200000 troops to attack East Turks south. Sima Khan had sent more than ten urgent reports to the court for help and asked the court to send troops to help." Li Chengqian said in distress.


    Merton frowned and said, "no, your majesty is Tian Khan. He should have stood in a detached position to convince the world. If Datang sent troops to help the East Turks, it would be suspected of pulling off the frame, which would be bad for your Majesty''s reputation."


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "I think so, but now Xue yantuo is powerful. If Xue yantuo is allowed to destroy the East Turks, I''m afraid there will be another dispute in the northern frontier of the Tang Dynasty."


    Merton retorted, "if the Tang Dynasty helped the East Turks destroy Xue yantuo, the court would not be afraid of the history of the Weishui alliance repeating itself?"


    Li Chengqian sighed helplessly: "this is the problem debated by the imperial court recently, and a resolution must be made as soon as possible, otherwise once delayed, it will surely delay the fighter plane."


    Merton analyzed: "Xue yantuo wants to destroy the eastern Turks and maintain the dominance of the grassland. The eastern Turks want to defeat Xue yantuo and restore the glory of the grassland in the past. The Tang Dynasty needs to maintain the security of the northern border and the balance of grassland forces. Today, Xue yantuo has a large number of people, while the eastern Turks have weak forces and unstable foundations."


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "according to the current situation, unless the Tang Dynasty sends troops to help, the East Turks can only perish, but many ministers in the court are extremely opposed. They think that the Tang Dynasty''s sending troops is bad for your Majesty''s reputation, and will sacrifice the lives of our Tang officers and soldiers and waste food and grass. What''s more, they are worried that the East Turks will take advantage of the situation to rise and threaten the Tang border."


    "Your Highness means that if you want the Tang Dynasty not to lose money, you should also maintain the balance of grassland forces." Merton immediately understood Li Chengqian''s meaning.


    Li Chengqian nodded and said, "don''t do business at a loss. This is brother Mo''s strength. He''s smart, so he came to ask brother Mo for advice."


    Merton shook his head and said, "no, Mo''s strength is not to lose money, but to make a lot of money."


    "Make a lot of money!" Li Chengqian immediately brightened his eyes and looked at Merton in surprise. He wanted Merton to come up with ideas to solve the disputes of the imperial court. Now it seems that it will give him a greater surprise.


    Merton nodded and said, "Xue yantuo has repeatedly provoked the Tang Dynasty. The intention of the Tang Dynasty to release the East Turks to return to their hometown is to contain Xue yantuo. This war seems to be a struggle between the two overlords of the grassland. In fact, it is a war between the Tang Dynasty and Xue yantuo, which is essentially a battle of agents."


    Merton suddenly thought of several proxy wars in the Middle East in the future, and he couldn''t help but feel that Datang could not adopt this model.


    "Agent war!" Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and didn''t understand Merton''s meaning.


    "It''s similar to hiring people to fight, but this time we hired East Turks of a country. Many people play with many people, but few people play with few people. The military method says: more soldiers are more expensive than more. Xue yantuo has a large number of people, and Datang only needs to make East Turks into elite soldiers, which is like several people besieging opposite, while the people hired here are armed, In this way, the strength of both sides can be balanced, and the East Turks may not be able to win more with less. "


    "Make it into a elite soldier. Brother Mo means that if the Tang Dynasty doesn''t send troops, you just need to give the East Turkic weapons and armor!" Li Chengqian said in his heart. Those East Turkic soldiers themselves are well-trained elite soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, but after returning, they all left their armor in the Tang Dynasty. As long as they have armor, their strength will be doubled, and it may not be possible to defeat Xue yantuo?


    "Not to give East Turks weapons and armor, but to sell weapons and armor to East Turks. My Datang gives East Turks so much money every year, it''s time to recover some interest." Merton shook his head.


    Li Chengqian suddenly looked up and looked at Merton inconceivably. Even if he hired people to fight, he had to provide people with weapons and money. Later, he was injured and had to pay medical expenses. Merton''s agent war even had to make a lot of money from the East Turks. This is really a hooligan.


    However, it was this rogue''s idea that made Li Chengqian''s heart beat. In this way, Datang could maintain the stability of the northern border and even make a lot of money without any loss. This is much better than Datang''s direct sending troops.

 Chapter 1252

    "Men don''t have a good thing!"


    Princess Changle looked at her husband and brother, secretly calculating East Turk and Xue yantuo, and said angrily.


    After a long time of whispering, Li Chengqian got up happily. With the plan of the memorial by the agent, there will only be one winner in the grassland war, that is Datang.


    As for whether the East Turks would like to be Tang''s agent, Li Chengqian has no doubt. After all, the East Turk tribe, which is facing life and death, has no choice at all.


    "Let''s go. I haven''t seen Martha and mertan in the palace for a long time. I miss them very much." Li Chengqian solved the problem. Then he remembered his nephew and niece and got up.


    Princess Changle smiled bitterly and said, "those two living treasures are very naughty now!"


    At the thought of her own children, Princess Changle had a headache. These two living treasures made the ink house jump every day.


    The three got up and went to the third floor villa. Before they reached the place, they heard a loud noise from a distance.


    "Higher, higher!"


    The excited voice of Martha kept coming. Merton came forward and saw her blood pressure rise. She saw Martha sitting on a swing, and Wu Meiniang behind her kept throwing it higher.


    There was also a swing on one side, on which sat a small mertan, pushed behind by Uncle Li Zhi, laughing happily.


    "This crazy girl!" Princess Changle was so angry that she didn''t know whether to say Wu Meiniang or Mosha.


    Li Chengqian also shook his head and smiled bitterly. As a royal nobleman, where can he play so crazy.


    "I''ll catch them!" Princess Changle said angrily. In the eyes of a mother, such behavior is too dangerous and not a lady.


    "Wait!" suddenly Merton''s eyes lit up, stopped Princess Changle who wanted to come forward, and stared at her sister and brother sitting on the swing.


    "Master!"


    Looking at the appearance of Shifu and Shiniang, Wu Meiniang felt empty and wanted to stop.


    "Keep pushing!"


    Merton waved his big hand and said expressionless. Wu Meiniang didn''t know whether master was angry or not, so she had to harden her head and continue to push.


    When Li Zhi saw Wu Meiniang punished, the man''s courage immediately rushed up and said proudly, "brother-in-law, it''s not Meiniang''s fault. The ninth brother asked Mosa Motan to sit on the swing."


    "In that case, if your brother-in-law asks you to sit on the swing, will you sit?" Merton raised his eyebrows.


    "My brother-in-law has a life. How dare the ninth brother not obey?" Li Zhi said with a smile.


    Li Zhi stretched out his hand to hold Motan down, jumped and sat on the swing. He was already a 15-year-old boy. He didn''t need to be pushed. When he kicked with his feet, the swing swung up.


    "Master, I also admit punishment!" Wu Meiniang, unwilling to show weakness, took Martha down and sat on the swing.


    "Admit punishment?" Li Zhi frowned. He just sat for a long time. What punishment is this.


    Wu Meiniang gave Li Zhi a blank look. She knows her master best. After making a mistake, she will let you sit on the swing easily. This swing must be hard to sit. She didn''t see that two ungrateful white eyed wolves, Mosha and mertan, had already secretly run away.


    The breeze is warm, and the sun turns into a little circle through the small holes on the ground through the leaves. In the shade of the tree, a handsome young man and a graceful young girl swing side by side. What a poetic thing it is.


    Facts have proved that nothing is a happy thing to do for a long time. Swinging is a beautiful thing. However, continuous swinging is a very hard thing. Even if the two people have no strength to swing by themselves, Merton ignored it and even sent two Mohist children to push them behind.


    "You start swinging at the same time, one higher and one lower."


    "Now start counting a quarter of an hour and count the number of swings in your heart."


    "You two hold on to the swing and fall freely from the highest point this time."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Merton''s continuous urging and the variety of swing methods make the destruction of this warmth disappear.


    Wu Meiniang felt trembling all over. She felt that she would never like to swing again in her life, but the master didn''t stop. She still insisted, and Li Zhi didn''t want to lose face in front of her sweetheart,


    Slowly, everyone''s expression began to be dignified. Originally, everyone thought that Merton was punishing them. Soon they saw something wrong. Merton seemed to find something on the swing.


    "Brother Prince, do you see anything?" Princess Changle knew her husband best and knew that her husband had an epiphany, but she didn''t know why.


    Li Chengqian nodded seriously and said, "look carefully. Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang began to swing at the same time. No matter how high or low they swing, they will coincide where they started at the same time."


    When Princess Changle looked carefully, she was surprised and said, "really?"


    She found that two people swing at the same time, one high and the other low. Naturally, there will be overlapping times. However, the overlapping place is always the same, and it happens to be the place where they start at the same time.


    "In addition, no matter how fast or slow they swing, they go back and forth the same times in a quarter of an hour." Li Chengqian took a deep breath.


    "What''s the use of this?" Princess Changle didn''t understand.


    "Time!" Li Chengqian said word by word, "that is to say, within a quarter of an hour, whether adults or children, whether they swing high or low, the number of swings back and forth is the same. I feel brother Mo has found a way to accurately time."


    Merton said just now that neither the watch nor the sundial nor even the four side clock of Mohism touched the essence of time, because they could not accurately determine the minimum time. Now, Merton seems to have achieved the accurate minimum time, that is, the time of a swing.


    "Seven thousand two hundred swings in one hour, three thousand six hundred in half an hour, which is a very magical discovery." Merton looked at the record in his hand and raised his eyebrows.


    Li Chengqian nodded slightly. The lunar calendar year is 360 days. Not long ago, the ancestor of mathematics calculated that the circumference is 360 degrees, and the hollow sundial with four clocks is also round. I''m afraid it''s not just a coincidence.


    "Well, you come down!" Merton looked at the two who were gritting their teeth and insisted, and mercifully let them go.


    They were relieved and hurried from the swing. I''m off. Just moved to the ground, I felt my legs and feet soft and almost didn''t collapse on the ground.


    The two looked at each other. In the eyes of the world, it was a good thing to swing, especially with their sweetheart. However, this time, they subverted their ideas. Even if a good thing persisted for a long time, it was so painful.


    Even love!

 Chapter 1253

    "Get up. Your merits and demerits are equal this time. With the swing swing timing, the teacher''s four clocks have finally reached perfection. You immediately send a letter to summon the skilled agricultural workers in Mojia village to design a mechanical swing timing device in the shortest time."


    "The four clocks on the Mohist mechanism city have begun to be built."


    "The zumingjun who studied mathematics calculated that the circumference was 360 degrees. It happened that the hollow sundial with four clocks was also round, and there were 3600 swings in half an hour. It shows that the zumingjun had a fate. Please ask Uncle zushishu to design the precise time of the day."


    Merton ordered Wu Meiniang one by one.


    "Yes! Master!"


    Wu Meiniang immediately came back to life with blood on her face. She immediately got up and walked out of the ink house in high spirits regardless of her physical discomfort. She completely ignored Li Zhi who had just shared joys and sorrows. In her heart, it was the most exciting thing to be able to participate in the construction of four clocks.


    As for love, hum!


    "Congratulations, brother Mo! As soon as the clock goes out, it will benefit the country and the people, which is really the blessing of the Tang Dynasty." Li Chengqian said in a loud voice.


    He couldn''t help but secretly rejoice that even Li Shimin was ecstatic with the four clocks for swing timing. Fortunately, he just agreed to solve the problem of overstepping the system for Merton. In this way, he could sell the favor of the Mohist son and raise his face in front of his father.


    "Your Highness, you''re welcome. It''s just an occasional gain. These four clocks can be described as a collection of the wisdom of Confucianism, Taoism and mathematics. Mohists only contributed timing equipment, but they don''t dare to monopolize the credit!" Merton waved his hand and said modestly.


    Li Chengqian shook his head. As soon as the clock on the four sides came out, Mohism had already surpassed the sundial of Taoism and the watch timing of Confucianism. In order to avoid suspicion, Merton didn''t move, let alone the timing equipment. Confucianism and Taoism had no power to fight back. As for the whole clock on the four sides, the timing equipment was the core. However, adding credit was the wisdom of Mohism. If only Mohism rose, Confucianists and Mohists have long been competing with each other, while Mohists have led other hundred schools to rise together. In this way, even Confucianists dare not act rashly.


    "Well, now that we have seen Mosha, mertan and the ninth brother, let''s go back to the palace!" Li Chengqian shouted to Li Zhi, who had almost rested,


    "All right!" Li Zhi replied absently.


    Looking at the direction Wu Meiniang left, Li Zhi reluctantly took back his eyes. He couldn''t help feeling a little melancholy. The so-called falling flowers were intentional and the flow was ruthless. Even though he had been very attentive just now, Wu Meiniang was always indifferent. Ink technology was far less important in her heart, which made him very disappointed.


    After seeing off the two brothers, Princess Changle suddenly turned to her husband and asked, "my husband seems to have deliberately set up Meiniang and nine younger brothers."


    Princess Changle looked at it clearly. Merton should have had inspiration when he saw Mosha and mertan swing. Even two people can finish it next. Merton let Li Zhi and Mei Niang swing for an hour. This is obviously punishing Li Zhi and Wu Mei Niang, but it actually creates opportunities for them.


    Merton raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "yes?"


    Princess Changle gave Merton a white look and said angrily, "I don''t know you yet! When did you punish your disciples like this?"


    Merton''s love for Wu Meiniang, Princess Changle, is obvious to all. Usually, she doesn''t want to be punished at all. She simply raises her as a daughter.


    Merton sighed: "Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it has been decided to marry a woman on the 14th. Now the doctors are very popular, and you and I have tried our best to raise the marriageable age to the age of 16. However, today''s Meiniang is already 19. If you were in an ordinary family, I''m afraid you would have married and had children. It''s because you are in the Mohist School and have too high vision that delayed the marriage."


    Princess Changle nodded. In addition to her vision and insight, Wu Meiniang also had an important reason, that is, the free atmosphere of Mohism. Mohist women always advocate free love. When they encounter love, they devote themselves wholeheartedly and despise those who don''t see it. However, in the final analysis, this atmosphere was brought out by Merton and Princess Changle.


    "Now the young talents in Chang''an city are like crucian carp crossing the river, but Meiniang doesn''t care about any of them. Since Li Zhi loves Meiniang, it''s a good match. Of course, it depends on their fate." Merton said.


    Even so, it was the tortuous love between Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang that really made Merton decide to help. Their previous lives were very rough. Since they had the chance to see each other again in this life, Merton didn''t mind helping them if they really looked right.


    Unfortunately, today''s Li Zhi is not the crown prince, and Wu Meiniang is also not a lonely and helpless girl bullied in the palace, but the future successor of the world-famous Mohist school. She may not like Li Zhi who is still a little child.


    "The ninth younger brother and Meiniang grew up in the sight of the palace. They are first-class good children. If they can get married, the palace will naturally be happy to see their success." Princess Changle said.


    However, she is full of worries about this love. Both the prince and Mohist women are the most special existence in Chang''an city.


    The prince has a high position and power. He enjoys wealth and wealth all his life. He can choose beautiful women all over the world in terms of mate selection. That Prince is not a group of wives and concubines. As the legitimate son of the royal family, Li Zhi is naturally the marriage object of aristocratic families all over the world. Many aristocratic women flock to him, even if they are willing to be concubines. However, this does not include Mohist women. Mohist women advocate freedom of love and are firm believers Following the monogamy system, Wu Meiniang, as the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, naturally took the lead in adhering to the dignity of Mohist women, that is to say, if Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang were together, there would be a compromise.


    However, watching Wu Meiniang grow up, Princess Changle naturally knows how arrogant she is. I''m afraid it''s impossible for her to compromise her husband''s concubinage. Instead, she believes that Li Zhi will agree to monogamy. However, he has only seen two people, one is his husband Merton and the other is Fang Xuanling. Even his grandfather Li Yuan began to release himself after the death of his original mate, and suddenly added many royal uncles and aunts to her.


    "As like as two peas," Wang said, "Li Chengqian is naturally a monogamous wife. He is in love with his wife." on the royal carriage, the reason why Li Zhi analyzed the attitude of Mei Niang to Li Zhi was almost the same as that of the princess of the Changle. Li Zhi immediately said with a vow.


    Li Chengqian shook his head slightly. The ninth younger brother was still young. He didn''t understand the fun of three wives and four concubines and sitting in the back palace. As an adult prince, he didn''t believe a word of Li Zhi''s promise.


    Li Zhi blushed and said, "if Meiniang doesn''t believe it, Ben Wang can sign a prenuptial agreement with her."


    Li Chengqian couldn''t help laughing. As for the prenuptial agreement signed by the Mohist woman, it''s not worth mentioning. It will only be binding on ordinary men and is a piece of waste paper for the royal family. Will the royal family allow the princess of Jin to take it after she leaves?


    "Moreover, according to the current situation, Wu Meiniang is the only disciple of Merton and the only successor of the Mohist school. She will certainly take charge of the Mohist School in the future. Even if Mei Niang agrees to marry you, will she continue to take charge of the Mohist School and make a public appearance after she doesn''t leave the gate of the king''s house of Jin?" Li Chengqian continued to analyze.


    "Wang naturally respects Meiniang''s opinion." Li Zhi said without hesitation.


    "There is still an age gap! Wu Meiniang is four years older than you." Li Chengqian continued.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Ah! Isn''t it just about falling in love? How can there be so many problems?" Li Zhi said with a headache. The marriage of other princes is a simple model. When they like it, they propose marriage directly and wait for marriage. When they wait for him, how has it become a difficult model, one by one? How he hopes to return to the era of arranged marriage in the past, You don''t have to worry about so many things.


    However, he did not know that this difficult model was much simpler than the hell model of later generations. He was already picking up a bargain.


    Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I''m afraid that''s why Mei Niang doesn''t want to. Since these problems can''t be solved, let''s make a clean break from the beginning. You know, at the same age, women are much more precocious than men, not to mention Wu Mei Niang, who is a famous senior sister of the Mohist school in Chang''an city. She can be said to be the leader of women in the world. Naturally, she has considered these things and can meet such a strange woman. I don''t know Is it the luck or sorrow of the ninth brother? "


    After listening to Li Chengqian''s analysis, Li Zhi''s heart was like winding a large ball of wool.

 Chapter 1254

    Li Zhi''s unrequited love is only his own trouble. Now the whole Chang''an city is attracted by another thing, that is, the Turks ask for help, and even the battle over the precise time of various schools of thought discussed before has been suppressed.


    The Turks who once overwhelmed Datang turned to Datang for help, which can not help but make the people of Chang''an somewhat satisfied, but there are still many disputes about whether to rescue Turks.


    "Inform your royal highness that smokhan has sent five urgent reports to Tang for help."


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Chengqian has just returned to the palace. Linghu Dehui, the Minister of rites, has been waiting with other officials. Seeing Li Chengqian''s return, he rushed to report.


    "What''s the situation now?" Li Chengqian asked quickly.


    "Return to your highness, Prince! Xue yantuo has been planning for a long time. He got the news that his majesty went east to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist monk. He took the opportunity to assemble 200000 cavalry to attack Turks under the leadership of Prince Dadushe, with the intention of destroying Turkic troops in one fell swoop. Now all troops and horses on the grassland have gathered under Dadushe banner and are heading south." Li jireport, the Minister of military affairs, reported.


    "200000 cavalry!" the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could not help taking a breath. It seems that Yi man Khan is really a very courageous man. He is ready to destroy all the departments returning to Turks and eliminate his threat in the bud. Once Yi man Khan causes the fact of killing East Turks, the Tang Dynasty may have no way to Xue yantuo.


    "What is the strength of the Turkic ministries?" Li Chengqian frowned.


    Li Ji shook his head and said, "there are only 40000 elite soldiers and 100000 herdsmen under the command of Simo Khan. Now Simo Khan has ordered the old and weak to go south and close to the Yellow River, and he himself led 40000 elite soldiers to mediate with Xue yantuo and wait for the help of the Tang Dynasty."


    Li Chengqian shook his head secretly when 40000 elite soldiers faced 200000 cavalry. Such a huge gap in strength, if Datang did not take action, the Turkic departments would undoubtedly lose.


    "Now your majesty has gone east to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist monk. He has not yet returned. He is now in the custody of the crown prince. Please order the crown prince to immediately rescue the Turkic ministries, otherwise the Turkic ministries will be in danger." Linghu de was distressed first.


    The Turkic ministries are a catfish that Li Shimin specially released to the grassland in order to contain Xue yantuo. If the Turkic ministries fail, the strategic layout of the Tang Dynasty will become an empty talk.


    "Please also ask your highness to send troops." the ministers asked for orders one after another.


    In the absence of Li Shimin, Prince Li Chengqian is a nominal emperor. Although the rescue of East Turkistan is an established strategy, this order must be issued by Prince Li Chengqian himself.


    "How many troops and horses and how much food and grass does the imperial court need to prepare?" Li Chengqian asked.


    Tang Jian, the Minister of civil affairs, said, "Your Highness, the prince of Hui, Xue yantuo has strong troops and 200000 cavalry. Our Tang soldiers are brave and good at fighting. We only need 30000 troops and horses and 100000 loads of food and grass."


    Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said, "that is, my Tang Dynasty will send troops and money, and the war results will be handed over to the Turks."


    "Only in this way can we show your Majesty''s generosity and make the world return." Wei Zhengzhi said proudly.


    "Really? Lord Wei was strongly opposed to his Majesty''s Taishan Buddhist cult. He thought that it would cost people and money to go north to help Turkic ministries. The money spent by Lord Wei Zheng is more than ten times that of Mount Tai Buddhist cult. How can Lord Wei Zheng not be distressed." Li Chengqian sarcastically said that he was angry at Wei Zheng''s embarrassment to Li Shimin.


    Wei Zheng said proudly, "one is for national interests and the other is for personal interests. How can we be confused."


    "Who cares about the Tang soldiers who bled for no reason? If they were damaged in the grassland, how many families would be separated and broken." Li Chengqian sighed.


    "The prince''s intention is to see the Turks die and watch Xue yantuo swallow all the Turks." Wei Zheng frowned.


    Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "of course not. Datang must return to the Turkic departments and return to the grassland. It is necessary to help the Turkic departments to have a foothold in the grassland. How to help them remains to be discussed. At least we can''t just let Datang contribute."


    The Manchu officials were not surprised. Then they suddenly realized that Li Chengqian had other plans.


    "Please make it clear to your Highness the prince." all the officials said one after another.


    Li Chengqian Lang said in a loud voice, "if the Turkic ministries want to have a foothold on the grassland, they can''t always rely on the support of Datang. They still need their own efforts, otherwise Datang can save the Turkic ministries once and save them a second time?"


    Many ministers nodded one after another. Unless Datang sent troops with all his strength, it would be impossible to destroy Xue yantuo. It is conceivable that the struggle between Xue yantuo and Turkic ministries will continue for many years. Datang could not be trapped in the quagmire of grassland war.


    "But Xue yantuo didn''t listen to the orders of the Tang Dynasty and sent troops to Turks for no reason. We can''t sit idly by. However, in addition to the direct dispatch of troops by the imperial court, there is another way to greatly increase the strength of Turkic departments in a short time, that is, selling Turkic armor and weapons. In this way, we don''t need to send troops in the Tang Dynasty, and Turkic departments can protect themselves. This is the strategy offered by Mo sacrificing wine. I don''t know you What do you think? "Li Chengqian''s proud proxy war plan came out and sold the Mohist school. After all, such a rogue method is really detrimental to his open and aboveboard image as a prince.


    "Agent war?" Tang Jian couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. In this way, Datang didn''t have to spend a penny. Instead, he could get a lot of benefits from the grassland. I''m afraid only Mozi could think of such a way to make a steady profit without losing money.


    The Minister of the Manchu Dynasty was also stunned. Who could have thought that mojiazi applied the means of doing business to the national level, and this method was simply too rogue and subverted the Confucian ethics.


    "Wei Chen agrees that as long as most of the Turkic ministries serve in Chang''an forbidden guards, as long as they have weapons, they can certainly double their strength and compete with Xue yantuo." Tang Jian took the lead in agreeing. As long as they don''t let the household pay, he is naturally happy to see their success.


    "No! How can I be so greedy for money? It''s really out of your Majesty''s demeanor of heavenly Khan." Yu Zhining and other civil servants angrily objected. Now as long as it''s the idea of Mohism, he has always opposed it. Let alone in his opinion, national exchanges are based on righteousness. It''s too cheap to do business.


    "If we don''t sell Turkic weapons, do we want the Tang soldiers to bleed and die in vain?" Li Chengqian asked.


    Yu Zhining was speechless. On the one hand, it was the national righteousness, on the other hand, it was the lives of soldiers and the interests of Datang. No matter how he chose, he would bear a curse.


    "Tell your Highness the crown prince that I think I should use and defend all Turkic departments. Turkic departments are brave and good at fighting. If Turkic departments have the elite armor weapons of the Tang Dynasty, it is not to feed the tiger. I have a two-way policy, which can let Turkic departments protect themselves without damaging the interests of the Tang soldiers." Unexpectedly, Chang sun rushed out to oppose the sale of Turkic weapons.


    "Oh! The eldest grandson''s son-in-law, please." Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows. He didn''t think that his brother-in-law''s two-way policy could be comparable to Merton''s agent war policy.


    Chang sun Chong said proudly, "the proxy war of Mo sacrificial wine can indeed make Datang the most favorable, but it will damage the reputation of his majesty Tian Khan. Therefore, Wei Chen believes that it is most appropriate to change the sale to delivery. In this way, it shows the demeanor of his majesty Tian Khan and greatly increases the strength of all Turkic departments."


    Many ministers thought that if they sold Turkic weapons instead of sending Turkic weapons, they suddenly decided to be very different, which was very in line with the Confucian ethics. Suddenly, many important officials looked at Chang sun Chong with satisfaction and were satisfied with the Confucian children of this civilian general.


    Tang Jian nodded. If he changed the sale to delivery, although he lost some armor and weapons, he didn''t have to pay for them


    "However, if Turks expand, it is also not in the interests of Datang, so we can''t give Turks too many armor weapons. From the perspective of Wei minister, Datang can only give Turks 3000 armor weapons at most, which is enough to enable Turkic departments to protect themselves and will not be out of Datang''s control. Datang only needs to send a small number of troops and horses, and take Turkic cavalry equipped with Datang weapons as the front, which is enough to defeat them Xue yantuo, of course, the cost of sending troops in the Tang Dynasty also needs to be borne by all Turkic departments. "Li Chengqian Lang said, revealing his complete strategy.


    Li Chengqian immediately thought about it in his mind. Naturally, he knew that the plan of the Mohist leader''s war was the most beneficial to Datang. However, he was in a high position, but he could not only look at interests, but also politics. Yu Zhining strongly opposed the plan of the proxy war to safeguard the benevolence, righteousness and morality of Confucianism, while Chang sun Chong half supported the proxy war and strongly encouraged Datang to send troops directly, This obviously has the interests of the military. After all, every war is accompanied by great achievements, which is an irresistible temptation for military generals.


    "The eldest grandson''s son-in-law''s strategy is brilliant. I don''t know what the ministers think." Li Chengqian finally compromised. After all, he is only a prince. He can''t ignore the interests of civil servants and military generals. He can only agree to this compromise.


    "Great kindness!" the Manchu civil and military nodded one after another. So far, the plan of Datang to assist Turkic ministries has been determined, half of the troops and half of the weapons and armor.


    As for the memorial of the Mohist School preparing to build a super high building, it passed quietly on the court hall.

 Chapter 1255

    The sky is vast, the wind blows the grass and sees cattle and sheep.


    In the Turkic hometown with abundant water and grass, there are abundant water and grass everywhere. Especially after the Turkic ministries moved in for ten years, the grassland here has long recovered its vitality, even better than in the past. Yellow sheep are everywhere. They are good grasslands for animal husbandry and hunting.


    At a river bend, there are hundreds of felt tents, which is obviously a gathering place of small tribes.


    "Dada, dada!" however, a burst of rapid hoofs broke the peace on the grassland. A large group of Xue yantuo cavalry rushed to this small Turkic tribe for a long time.


    However, before Xue yantuo cavalry attacked the Turkic tribe, the whole tribe did not respond at all, and no brave Turkic cavalry came out to meet the enemy.


    "Empty! Go back and report it to Dadu immediately!"


    The commander in charge of the raid, Engel, looked embarrassed and immediately turned his horse back. At the same time, he did not forget to burn the Turkic tribe with a fire.


    "Whoosh!"


    Suddenly, a cold arrow came from a small hillside, and then a large group of Turkic cavalry swept in and killed the Xue yantuo cavalry.


    The two cavalry immediately fought together and fought each other. Soon, the Turkic cavalry took the advantage of the raid. However, the Turkic cavalry did not continue to expand the results, but quickly left the battlefield and retreated directly to the south.


    After a while, a large number of Xue yantuo cavalry came, and the leader was Prince Xue yantuo Dadushe.


    "When we returned to Dadushe, the Turks were as timid as mice. They had moved all the herdsmen inside and left felt tents to lure us into ambush. After sneaking on us, they ran south again." Engel reported angrily.


    Dadushi did not blame Engel, but carefully observed the situation of the small raid, and even showed a satisfied smile and said: "our army lost 100 horses, Turks still lost 50 horses when they took the lead. It seems that the warm weather in Datang has made Turks lose their combat effectiveness."


    Although the Turkic cavalry served in the forbidden guards of the Tang Dynasty, they chose the training methods of the Tang Dynasty. After returning to the grassland, they were as elite as Xue yantuo''s cavalry trained day and night in the bitter and cold place. If there were no chance of surprise attack, the Turkic cavalry would not be able to take advantage of it.


    Now Xue yantuo has gathered 200000 elite troops from all departments, while the Turks have only 40000 elite troops. Xue yantuo will win this war.


    "Generous and wise, Turks are just the defeated old wolf king. They become the watchdog of the Tang Dynasty and even fantasize about the dream of grassland overlord." the Khitan leader complimented.


    On the grassland, strength has always been respected. Now Xue yantuo is powerful. All parts of the grassland naturally respect Xue yantuo, the most powerful, and directly abandon the old overlord Turks.


    If Turks win unexpectedly, they will also need these small tribes. This is the way for grassland tribes to survive.


    "Keep chasing. In the future, there will be one army for every ten thousand horses. Each army is 30 miles apart. Turks can''t run far. From now on, there is only one overlord on the grassland, that is Xue yantuo." boldly set a cold voice.


    "What if the Turks fled back to Datang?" the leader of Huihe frowned, and the leaders of other departments were worried. Once the Turks retreated to the south of the Yellow River, it was Datang''s territory, and they could attack Datang.


    Dadu set Zhizhu in his hand and said, "it''s impossible for Turkic ministries to escape back to Datang so easily, because they know that once they withdraw to Datang, it''s not so easy to come back."


    This time, he wants to make the Tang Dynasty fully recognize Xue yantuo''s rule in the Turkic homeland by virtue of the power of the war, otherwise his 200000 army doesn''t mind going south. He also wants to see the scenery of Chang''an City, but this time he''s not going to take the Ba bridge. He heard that the Tang Dynasty has built a more magnificent Weishui bridge, He wondered whether the bridge could bear the weight of 200000 cavalry.


    In a valley on the North Bank of the Yellow River, tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry gathered, and everyone was ready in battle and looked solemn. Now Turks are facing life and death. If the war is won, Turks can gain a foothold in the grassland. If Turks are defeated, they will completely lose their hometown and can only continue to send people under the fence.


    "Tell Khan that he ganchengji is back." with the messenger, he ganchengji, the general who had just raided Xue yantuo''s cavalry, entered Li Simo''s tent.


    "How''s the war going? Where are Xue yantuo''s cavalry?" Li Simo asked quickly.


    He ganchengji hesitated and replied, "at the end, he will use the tents left by the migrating tribes to ambush Xue yantuo''s cavalry. He won a small victory and beheaded 100 people. Now Xue yantuo has gathered 200000 troops from all parts of the grassland, which is less than 500 miles away from our army."


    "200000 troops!" suddenly the whole tooth tent exclaimed. Xue yantuo had 200000 cavalry, but they only had 40000 cavalry. There was no doubt that they would lose the battle.


    Li Simo roared, "I think when Turks were strong, all parts of the grassland did not follow. Now not only Xue yantuo rebelled, but also those small tribes dared to fall down."


    "Why don''t we withdraw to the south of the river to avoid xueyantuo soldier peak." a Turkic nobleman said humbly.


    Li Simo shook his head and said, "Ben Khan has already made a memorial to Chang''an City and asked Datang to send troops for help. Retreating to the south of the river for self-protection is the last method. We must not implement it until the last moment. We have lost the grassland once and must not lose it again."


    "What Khan said is very true!"


    Many Turkic generals nodded one after another. They finally returned to the grassland. As a result, they went back sadly in less than a year. It''s not so easy to return to the grassland again.


    Moreover, they believe that Datang cannot sit idly by and allow Xue yantuo to annex Turks. This is also a big bet for Turks. If they win, they can return to the grassland overlord, and if they lose, they can return to Datang.


    "If we continue to fight Xue yantuo, we must delay until the arrival of reinforcements in the Tang Dynasty." Li Sima Lang said.


    "Yes! Khan!"


    A group of Turkic generals said in unison that although Li Simo was a Khan granted by Li Shimin and his foundation was not stable, now was the time for the survival of Turks, and all they could do was work together.


    "Kill!"


    Two groups of cavalry kept attacking on the grassland. They were in a commotion and fought on a small scale. As expected, in terms of field operations, the Turkic departments did not have the upper hand.


    Had it not been for the logistics of the 200000 troops that could not keep up, Dadushi would have sent troops to besiege the Turks. However, under the leadership of Dadushi, the 200000 troops besieged, chased and blocked the Turks, constantly compressing the space of each Turkic department,


    Five hundred miles, three hundred miles, one hundred miles.


    For the cavalry, the distance of 100 Li is already very dangerous. Seeing that the Turkic departments have fallen into a desperate situation, and the reinforcements of Datang still haven''t arrived, the whole Turkic departments are shrouded in a melancholy cloud.


    "I told you not to trust Datang. How can Datang risk defeat and send troops to help?" a Turkic general said angrily.


    "However, Western Turks are our natural allies. We are from the same family, and yugshi will certainly help us." a Turkic nobleman placed his hope on Western Turks who are also Turks,


    Li Simo shook his head and said: "No, relying on Datang is the only way out for us. Western Turk is located in the western regions, which is beyond the reach of the whip, not to mention that it is defeated by Datang to set up a valley. Relying on the strong is the eternal truth of the grassland. If Turk departments want to protect themselves, they must rely on the strongest in the world. You can rest assured that Datang will not die, otherwise if Turk departments are defeated in this war, the grassland will be destroyed again No one checks and balances Xue yantuo. "


    The Turkic general''s face was uncertain, but many people were dissatisfied with Li Simo. They thought that it was a disgrace to the ASHNA family to abandon his brother and take refuge in the enemy.


    "Report to Khan, Datang reinforcements have arrived!" suddenly Hegan Chengji came in a hurry with a happy face.


    "Seriously!" Liz Morton suddenly got up with a surprise on his face.


    "How many troops and horses have come to Datang!" the Turkic generals asked one after another.


    Hegan Chengji replied, "tell Khan that the Tang Dynasty has 3000 troops and horses!"


    "Three thousand troops and horses?" suddenly all the Turks couldn''t help but lag and couldn''t believe looking at Hegan Chengji. Three thousand troops and horses were not enough to fill their teeth in front of 200000 troops. What''s the use of these three thousand troops and horses in the Tang Dynasty? "


    Hegan Chengji said proudly, "don''t underestimate these three thousand troops. These three thousand troops are the firearm army of the Tang Dynasty. The general of the firearm army is my good brother sun Chong."


    "The firearm army, the firearm army that destroys the city!" the whole Turkic generals immediately burst into an uproar. For the name of the firearm army, who is better than Lei Guaner? When he destroys the city in Gaochang, he retreats thousands of miles to frighten the valley and destroys thousands of Tubo soldiers in a thousand miles in the 800 mile vast sea. His outstanding military achievements have surpassed the most famous Modao team in the Tang Dynasty in a short time, And become the most powerful army in the world.


    Moreover, we should know that at that time, the firearm army was only 1000 people. Today, the firearm army has expanded to 3000 people, and its strength has increased several times.


    "The general not only brought 3000 firearm troops, but also 3000 pieces of armor and weapons to all Turkic departments." while talking, the eldest sun Chong in military uniform walked proudly into Li SMO''s tent with sun wukai.


    "Three thousand armor weapons!"


    Li Si Morton''s face was happy. The number of Turkic soldiers was far inferior to Xue yantuo. If they could get the elite armor and weapons of the Tang Dynasty, they would soar in combat power and make up for the shortage of numbers.


    "But even if we have 6000 men in full armor, I''m afraid we can''t beat the 200000 Xue yantuo army." Li Simo said sadly.


    Hegan Chengji said proudly, "Sima Khan can rest assured that general changsun is only the first force, and then general Li Ji led 30000 Tang cavalry to come later."


    "Thirty thousand Tang cavalry!" a group of Turkic generals were surprised. They personally experienced the combat effectiveness of the Tang army equipped with armor, not to mention the world-famous firearm army, plus 40000 elite Turkic cavalry. Now the Turkic side has the confidence to fight Xue yantuo in terms of number and strength.


    Li Simo was in high spirits. He insisted on standing on the side of Datang. Now Datang finally gave him rich returns. As long as he defeated Xue yantuo, the Turks could gain a foothold on the grassland and regain the throne of grassland overlord.

 Chapter 1256

    The range of only 50 miles is extremely dangerous for the cavalry. Scouts of the two armies keep handing over short soldiers on this grassland to inquire about intelligence. The smoke of gunpowder is everywhere in the grassland. Even the wild animals smell the danger. Solitary foxes and wild wolves flee one after another, and rabbits and voles hide in the cave and tremble.


    "Tell Khan that Xue yantuo''s vanguard is less than thirty miles away from the army." a scout reported in a hurry in the Turkic tent.


    "Xue yantuo has finally come!" the Turkic generals could not help but sink in their hearts and knew that it was the time for the survival of all Turkic departments. However, the Turkic generals looked at Chang sun Chong and he ganchengji, who were fully armed in the tooth tent. They had more confidence in their hearts. With the world''s most powerful firearms army and 3000 Turkic cavalry equipped with Tang weapons, Turks finally had the ability to protect themselves.


    "When will General Li Ji arrive!" Li Simo asked anxiously. Although the Turks have 6000 troops, horses, armored elite soldiers and 40000 grassland cavalry, it is unrealistic to defeat Xue yantuo''s 200000 army. If Turks want to win, they still need 30000 cavalry of the Tang Dynasty to ensure victory.


    "Return to Khan! According to the scouts, General Li Ji has crossed the Yellow River and is coming to our army at full speed! It''s still about a hundred miles away," said a Turkic general with a sad face.


    The so-called far water can''t save the near fire. Li Ji is still a hundred miles away. Xue yantuo''s army has been pressed into less than 30 miles, and the Turkic ministries are facing a crisis of life and death.


    "Why don''t our army continue to retreat, join the Tang army, and then go to war with Xue yantuo." a Turkic nobleman suggested that they have fewer troops. Now they have no confidence in going to war with Xue yantuo. It''s better to go to the Tang Dynasty for nothing.


    Li Simo was slightly moved. With the participation of the Tang cavalry, the Turks could ensure the victory. It was indeed the best way to retreat and wait for the arrival of Li Ji''s army.


    "I don''t think it''s necessary. It''s still unknown when General Li Ji will arrive, but Xue yantuo is pressing step by step. If our army retreats and is bitten by Xue yantuo, I''m afraid there is a risk of annihilation of the whole army, and our army doesn''t have the strength of a war at present." Chang sun Chong objected in unison.


    "But our army only has 3000 troops and horses equipped with armor. The others are grassland cavalry. I''m afraid they can''t beat Xue yantuo''s 200000 army at all." Li Simo frowned.


    Chang sun Chong said proudly, "the Turkic cavalry can''t fight. Isn''t there still a firearm army?"


    "Firearm army?" said the Turks with joy. "So, general changsun is willing to send troops to help."


    Chang sun Chong looked arrogant and said, "when I send troops to the grassland, naturally I will not sit idly by and watch the defeat of Turks. Once the Turkic war is unfavorable, I will certainly send troops to help. There are 3000 firearms troops on the battlefield. No army is our opponent on the battlefield, so I can certainly reverse the defeat for Turks.


    "Yes! We have the firearm army to help, and we will be afraid of Xue yantuo." he ganchengji then boasted.


    "Destroy the city and destroy 5000 Tibetan cavalry" the Turkic generals were moved one after another. They couldn''t help thinking of the great achievements of the firearm army. In addition, the number of today''s firearm army is three times that before, and the combat power must increase several times. In this way, Turks have no chance of winning. At least they can take Xue yantuo by surprise.


    "Since General Chang sun helps me, I''m not a coward. This time, I''ll fight Xue yantuo first to destroy Xue yantuo''s evil spirit." Li Simo rose to the occasion. Now the Turks have retreated too much, and the morale of the army is low. If Xue yantuo can take advantage of the arrival of the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty and win a war unexpectedly, it will certainly boost the morale. Moreover, he knows that only by relying on the strength of the Turks can he really sit in the position of the Turkic Khan, otherwise he will go whoring the Tang Dynasty all the time, and all the tribes will die I won''t convince him.


    "Please, General Chang sun!" the Turkic generals saluted him solemnly.


    Chang sun Chong was very proud of himself. This time he strongly advocated sending troops to the grassland for his great military achievements. For this reason, he brought the whole full army of firearms and wanted to leave his reputation on the grassland.


    He urged the Turks to send troops, and did not imitate the achievements of the Mohist army in destroying Gaochang. If he led the firearm army and the Turkic cavalry to defeat Xue yantuo, there would be nothing behind Li Ji''s army. At that time, the credit for defeating Xue yantuo would fall on him, holding the real pearl Khan to Chang''an city. At that time, he would combine the achievements of destroying the country in one fell swoop Yuemo family.


    Li Simo and Chang sun Chong had their own thoughts and agreed to fight first. However, they didn''t know each other''s thoughts. Li Simo wanted to win a small victory, establish Khan''s authority, and then continue to whore in the Tang Dynasty. Chang sun Chong wanted to do everything in the first World War and obtain military merit as much as possible.


    "Hey, law!"


    Grassland war horses gathered, 40000 Turks gathered, and Chang sun Chong followed. Although they had their own thoughts, they both wanted to win the battle.


    "Tell Khan that Khitan cavalry, the vanguard of Xue yantuo army, has approached our army for ten miles." a scout hurried to report.


    Hegan Chengji said angrily, "Khitan Khan, a perfidious guy, didn''t treat him badly when he followed the Turks. Now the Turks are down. He is willing to be Xue yantuo''s forward. He defeated the Khitan cavalry first in this war, so that the Khitans know the consequences."


    All the Turkic generals immediately shared a common hatred and were ready to attack the Khitan cavalry.


    "Slow down! I have a plan to ensure that the Qidan cavalry will never return." Chang sun Chong suddenly said.


    Li Simo looked sideways and asked, "what advice does general Chang sun have?"


    Chang sun Chong sneered: "the grassland cavalry gathered and scattered like sand. Once the Khitan cavalry see the situation, they will surely flee back to Xue yantuo''s army. In this battle, you first send cavalry to fight with Khitan. You may lose or win. This time, I will defeat the Khitan cavalry and let other grassland departments realize the consequences of disobedience to Tian Khan."


    "Let''s lose, let''s not win!" Li Simo, who had been in the Central Plains for a long time, suddenly understood Chang sun Chong''s plan to lure the enemy in-depth.


    With an order, a standard Turkic cavalry on the grassland jumped out and ran towards the Khitan cavalry of Xue yantuo forward.


    "The Turkic tortoise is finally willing to move. As long as we can hold the Turkic cavalry, the first skill to kill the Turks belongs to Khitan." Khitan Khan saw the attack of the Turkic cavalry. He didn''t worry but was happy. He immediately sent someone to the rear to send a message. He led the Khitan cavalry to deal with the Turks. Once Khitan obtained the first skill to kill the Turks, the grassland in Monan''s hometown is not left to Khitan to choose, At that time, the time came for Khitan to rise.


    "Kill!"


    Two groups of grassland cavalry got closer and closer, and finally directly collided and fought together.

 Chapter 1257

    Two groups of cavalry entangled together, and soon, they had been separated.


    The ten-year captivity of the Tang Dynasty has made the Turkic cavalry lose their wildness. They can''t beat the Qidan cavalry trained day and night in the bitter and cold land of the north. With one blow, the Turkic cavalry defeated one after another and fled back.


    "Hahaha, how can the dogs of the Tang Dynasty defeat the wolves of the grassland? The Turks will lose this battle." Khitan Khan was overjoyed and couldn''t help but rejoice that he stood in the right team. Xue yantuo must be the last winner in this battle. He brought a large number of Khitan cavalry and won the important task of a forward.


    Seeing that the defeated Turks fled back, Li SMO couldn''t help but sink his face and forced himself to endure. Whether it was true or false, he somehow completed the task. At the moment, he took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and waved. The 3000 Turkic cavalry equipped with Datang armor that had been hidden all the time came out, went straight to Qidan cavalry, and quickly reversed the situation with the benefit of weapons,


    "Tang Qi! Tang reinforcements are here!" Khitan Khan''s face sank, but he immediately shook his head because he found that the man wearing Tang army armor was still a familiar grassland face.


    "It turned out that Datang only helped a batch of weapons." Khitan Khan frowned. Although Datang only helped weapons, the poorly equipped Khitan cavalry were still defeated, and soon suffered heavy losses and the situation turned sharply downward.


    "Khan, retreat! The armor of the Tang Dynasty is so sharp that my Khitan warriors can only die in vain." a Turkic general looked at the overturned Khitan cavalry and begged bitterly. Khitan weapons were cut on the armor of the Tang Dynasty unharmed, while Khitan cavalry were cut by the weapons of the Tang Dynasty, they were seriously killed and injured. Each Khitan cavalry is the most elite weapon of the clan, Where did Khitan withstand such a loss.


    Khitan Khan''s face was embarrassed, but he still firmly shook his head and said, "it''s also wishful thinking to defeat 200000 troops with 3000 Tang armor alone. Xue yantuo still has the chance to win this war. Once Khitan retreats, all the previous losses will be wasted. If the order goes on, we will no longer fight with Turks, but instead fight with Turks, and we must drag the Turkic cavalry."


    Khitan Khan sees the current situation very clearly. Now it is difficult to ride a tiger. He has to hold on. Xue yantuo''s army is not far away. Once he receives Khitan''s notice, he will surely come quickly. At that time, it will be the end of the Turkic cavalry. At this moment, Khitan cavalry will lose more and gain more in the future.


    With the horn sounded, the Khitan cavalry quickly left the battlefield and no longer fought close combat with the Turkic cavalry. Although the Khitan cavalry still had a disadvantage, the loss was still tolerable.


    Now both sides have cards. Khitan is waiting for Xue yantuo''s cavalry, while the Turks have been holding down 3000 firearm troops.


    The king of Khitan, while gritting his teeth and insisting, looked North frequently. Soon, a huge cavalry appeared in front of him.


    "Xue yantuo cavalry is coming!" the Qidan cavalry who have been insisting hard cheered one after another.


    Khitan Khan was overjoyed. It was general Xue yantuo Engel who came to help. He led 5000 Xue yantuo elite cavalry to rescue. Engel appeared, which means that Dadushi was not far away. He finally dragged the Turks. Khitan''s first merit in this war was already in his bag.


    "Hegan Chengji!" Engel recognized at a glance that the Turkic general wearing the armor of the Tang army was the Hegan Chengji who ambushed him. He was furious and led the army straight away.


    Xue yantuo''s cavalry led by Engel is Xue yantuo''s most elite cavalry. Although there is a shortage of iron weapons on the grassland, it is not difficult for Xue yantuo, as the overlord of the grassland, to forge thousands of armor. Although it is not as elite as the armor of the Tang Dynasty, it is definitely much better than the leather armor of the grassland tribe. In addition, the advantage in number of people soon caught up with the 3000 Turkic cavalry equipped with the armor of the Tang army.


    The strength of both sides leveled again, but everyone knew that once Dadushi led a large number of Xue yantuo cavalry to arrive, it would be the end of the Turks.


    "This is Xue yantuo''s most elite cavalry!" Chang sun Chong looked at the rough armor in the telescope and couldn''t help showing a trace of contempt. The workmanship can''t compare with the armor made by the most sophisticated Mohist, or even the craftsmanship of ordinary craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty.


    As long as Xue yantuo''s most elite cavalry and Khitan cavalry are defeated, it is enough to frighten Xue yantuo and all parts of the grassland.


    "It''s all up to General Chang sun!" Li Simo bowed.


    The eldest sun smiled coldly, showed a cruel look and said, "even the most elite cavalry on the grassland is just a local chicken and a dog in front of the firearm army."


    "Don''t worry, general. My subordinates will defeat Xue yantuo''s cavalry completely!" Sun Wu said with a grim smile.


    At that moment, Sun Wu waved his big hand, and three thousand firearm troops came out and rushed directly at five thousand elite Xue yantuo cavalry.


    "Tang Jun!" Khitan Khan was surprised. Unexpectedly, Tang Jun really appeared.


    "What about the Tang army? It''s only 3000 people. As long as it is dragged to the arrival of the Grand Army, it can''t change the fate of the demise of Turks." Engel Leng snorted.


    When he turned his horse''s head and began to oppose the firearm army, he led the most elite cavalry on the grassland. He had long wanted to compete with the Tang army, and now he finally got what he wanted.


    Khitan Khan saw that it was now difficult to ride a tiger, so he had to bite his teeth instead of Engel to entangle Hegan Chengji.


    "I don''t know how to live or die!" sun wukai saw Xue yantuo''s cavalry take the initiative to attack. He snorted angrily and waved his hand. Suddenly, the sound of steel crossbows continued. Under the three-stage shooting, one sharp crossbow and arrow went straight to Xue yantuo''s cavalry,


    In an instant, Xue yantuo, who was equipped with simple armor, could not resist the impact of steel crossbows and arrows. Suddenly, Xue yantuo''s cavalry fell on their backs.


    "Continue to charge and close the distance." Engel separated a steel crossbow with a knife and was startled by the strong steel crossbow. At that time, he shouted loudly, this is the experience of the grassland cavalry and the Central Plains. Once approached by the grassland cavalry with exquisite horsemanship, the Central Plains cavalry with poor horsemanship will fall into the wind.


    However, when Xue yantuo''s cavalry rushed forward desperately, what was waiting for them were dark and sparking grenades.


    "Boom! Boom!"


    A series of explosions immediately turned Xue yantuo''s cavalry upside down. The whole Tang army cut into Xue yantuo''s cavalry like a scalpel and easily pierced Xue yantuo''s cavalry under the opening of a grenade.


    "Firearm army!" Engel was stunned, and suddenly remembered a terrible army spread in Gaochang, the firearm army that broke the city.


    "Kill!" Li Simo saw that as soon as the firearm army came out, the situation on the battlefield immediately changed. With a big hand, the army pressed on and tried to hit the Xue yantuo cavalry and Khitan cavalry as hard as possible before the magnanimous setting arrived.


    At this moment, it is no longer a matter of holding the Turkic cavalry, but whether they can get away with it. Whenever the Khitan cavalry and Xue yantuo cavalry want to rally against, a pile of grenades will be lost and defeat them again. Although the Turkic cavalry have lost their wild nature, they are particularly motivated to fight with the wind, In addition, this is the battle for the survival of Turks. Turkic cavalry constantly attacked and surrounded Xue yantuo and Qidan cavalry to destroy them one by one.


    Chang sun Chong looked at the scene proudly. In this war, three thousand firearm troops set the world in one fell swoop. The grassland cavalry is not an enemy of unity at all.

 Chapter 1258

    Under the fierce attack of the firearm army, Xue yantuo''s cavalry lost like a mountain and ran away frantically. The Turkic cavalry hid and chased for several miles, and won a complete victory.


    "Win!"


    Suddenly, the Turkic cavalry shouted wildly, and their depression vomited away. Many veterans cried, as if they were back to the Turks ten years ago.


    Once upon a time, their Turks were the overlords on the grassland. However, in the war ten years ago, Turks suddenly fell from the altar and became stray dogs. Now Turks have finally proved themselves with this war.


    "Call off the troops!"


    Li Simo was overjoyed and knew not to be greedy for merit. Once he was chased by the Grand Army, 40000 Turkic cavalry were not an enemy at all.


    "Wait! This is the time when the soldiers of the whole army are expanding their achievements. If the troops are forcibly withdrawn, Xue yantuo will lose a little, and he will not have a long memory." Chang sun Chong waved his big hand to stop. The grassland cavalry gathered and scattered like sand. Although the Tang army defeated Xue yantuo''s cavalry, Xue yantuo did not lose much. Chang sun Chong was unwilling to give up the opportunity to beat down the water dog.


    "But if the big army of magnanimous design comes, our army will not be in danger!" Li Simo frowned.


    Chang sun Chong said proudly, "so what! With the firearm army, even Zhenzhu Khan came in person. In front of the firearm army, it''s just a local chicken and tile dog."


    Li Simo frowned. However, at the moment, Chang sun Chong is the patron of Turks. Although Li Simo knows that a delay will be dangerous, it''s not good to offend Chang sun Chong and let Chang sun Chong fool around.


    It was not until the firearm army and the Turkic cavalry pursued for more than ten miles that they came back one after another with rich results. Li Simo ordered to retreat.


    "Lost!"


    Dadushi saw Enge kneeling down in front of him covered with blood. He was embarrassed. He thought that even if Enge, who led Xue yantuo''s most elite cavalry, could not take the Turks, he could at least hold the Turks. Unexpectedly, 5000 Xue yantuo''s elite cavalry were defeated in a short time and suffered heavy losses.


    "Back to Dadushi, the Turks not only got the armor of Datang, but also the help of Datang firearm army. We didn''t check for a while and fell into the Turks'' plan." Engel said with a ashamed face.


    The Khitan Khan on one side was even more embarrassed. The Khitan cavalry were trapped in the plan and suffered heavy losses. I''m afraid they can''t recover without ten years of rest.


    "Tang Jun is coming!" Dadushi suddenly changed his face.


    "Or the firearm army led by Mo Jiazi."


    "A firearm army that broke the city!"


    "Destroy the firearm army of five thousand Tibetan cavalry!"


    The generals of other departments also exclaimed that since the western expedition, the firearm army has become famous in the first World War. It has made great achievements in both siege and field operations, and has become the first army in the world. Their grassland departments have also heard of it for a long time.


    "The firearm army is not 1000, but has expanded to 3000, and its general is no longer the son of Mohism, but the son of changsun Wuji, changsun Chong." Khitan Khan whispered. Khitan is close to Datang and has frequent exchanges with Datang. He learned about the changes of the firearm army.


    "Three thousand firearm troops." Huihe Khan frowned. One thousand firearm troops could surpass five thousand Tubo cavalry. If three thousand firearm troops, their strength would not have tripled. They were invincible on the battlefield. Being able to defeat Xue yantuo cavalry so quickly is the best example.


    For a moment, the leaders of the grassland departments were in a state of mind. Xue yantuo had the chance to win the battle. Everyone stood in line with Xue yantuo. Now the Turks have the help of Datang and the most aggressive firearm army in the world. It is even more uncertain whether there are many Tang troops behind them. Turks, Tuyuhun and Gaochang were defeated by Datang one by one, Xue yantuo is probably not an opponent of Datang. The war is hanging.


    As soon as he turned his eyes and saw the reaction of all the departments on the grassland, he suddenly felt timid. The war was defeated, and the other departments may be all right. However, Xue yantuo will be jointly liquidated by the Tang Dynasty and Turks, and if it is not good, he will end up exterminating the family.


    "If it was the firearm army led by Mo Jiazi, my prince immediately turned around and left, but how could the firearm army led by a dandy be put in the eyes of my king? Although Engel suffered heavy losses, he exposed the weakness of the eldest son''s reckless progress. The Tang cavalry won in the benefit of the armour, but the armour was extremely heavy, which was not conducive to long-distance travel. As long as our army moved forward at a high speed, it would certainly be possible Catch up with the firearm army. "Dadushi sneered. He is worthy of being the successor valued by Zhenzhu Khan. He has a high military quality. At a glance, the strongest point of the firearm army is his weakness.


    A group of grassland tribal leaders nodded slightly. Although the advantage of Tang soldiers'' armour is beneficial, it also has serious disadvantages. Grassland cavalry can indeed chase faster than Tang army. However, all grassland departments are unwilling to fight with Tang army. The firearm army has the best attack power in the world and may suffer heavy losses. Even if it can destroy the firearm army, it means that they have formed a dead enemy with Tang army, This is the outcome that the grassland departments are unwilling to accept.


    Dadu set his teeth and said, "Xue yantuo''s headquarters will pursue the firearm army this time. Once the firearm army is trapped, the Turkic cavalry will not give up. The nephew of the empress of the Tang Dynasty will come to help. You just need to attack the Turkic cavalry. Once you destroy the Turks, you can choose the grassland in the hometown of Monan."


    The magnanimous and vicious vision not only accurately calculated the shortcomings of the firearm army, but also the importance of the firearm army and Chang sun Chong. If the firearm army and Chang sun Chong were damaged on the grassland, the Tang Dynasty would certainly anger the Turks, and the Turks would certainly spare no effort to rescue the firearm army. At that time, Xue yantuo would solve the Turks once and for all.


    "Yes!" the grassland leaders nodded happily. In this way, they can not offend the Tang Dynasty, but also divide the Turkic grassland. Isn''t that the best of both worlds.


    Dadushi was relieved to see a group of grassland leaders. All parts of the grassland had the same interests as Xue yantuo in this war. Xue yantuosheng would be good for everyone to continue to carve up the Turkic homeland. If the Turks won and reoccupied the hometown of Monan, and all parts of the grassland continued to live a hard life, they naturally knew how to choose.


    "Drive!"


    With shouts and cheers, a large number of Xue yantuo cavalry took the lead, abandoned their luggage and rode straight to the firearm army.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Report, it''s not good. A large number of Xue yantuo cavalry are coming, which is less than ten miles." a Turkic scout came in a hurry and said with a panic on his face.


    "So soon, send orders and retreat at full speed!"


    Li Simo, who was retreating, suddenly changed his face and ordered.


    Xue yantuo is the sworn enemy of Turks. The reason why Turks were defeated was that Xue yantuo stabbed them in the back. However, Turks at the moment are far from Xue yantuo''s opponent. For today''s plan, we can only continue to retreat and join Li Ji''s army.


    Although Chang sun Chong was arrogant, he also knew that the 3000 firearm army could not resist the 200000 Xue yantuo cavalry. In addition, he had made great achievements, so he immediately ordered the firearm army to evacuate at full speed.


    The distance of ten miles is not short in the chase battle, and it is almost difficult to level the distance of ten miles in the process of full speed progress of both sides. At the beginning, the firearm army and Turkic cavalry retreated calmly.


    "The enemy has been less than five miles."


    When the scouts informed the enemy again, almost everyone looked embarrassed. Xue yantuo was desperately trying to pursue the Turks at all costs.


    "Don''t cherish horsepower, retreat as fast as you can." Li Simo roared.


    At present, both the firearm army and the Turkic cavalry are speeding up at this moment, evacuating to the South as fast as possible, and finally maintaining the distance of five miles.


    Chang sun Chong looked at the Xue yantuo cavalry five miles away from the telescope and was relieved. He shuddered at the thought of being surrounded by 200000 troops.


    However, before he was happy for too long, he found that the speed of the firearm army, which was originally in the forefront of retreat, slowed down and was soon overtaken by the Turkic cavalry.


    Chang sun Chong''s face sank. The firearm army''s combat power was the first. It relied on gunpowder weapons. Its weight was not light. Coupled with its heavy armor, although the war horse selected by the firearm army was the best, it was not exposed at ordinary times. Now, compared with the Turkic cavalry, this disadvantage was immediately exposed.


    "Drive!" the eldest sun Chong pulled his whip hard, but in vain. The Turkic cavalry was getting farther and farther away, and the Xue yantuo cavalry behind him was getting closer and closer, and he was about to catch up.


    "Xue yantuo''s target is the firearm army!"


    Li Simo frowned. The firearm army was the face of the Tang Dynasty. If it was destroyed on the grassland, he would be responsible, not to mention the special figure Chang sun Chong.


    "The firearm army can''t afford to lose, so we need to help immediately and delay Xue yantuo''s speed." Sima Khan waved his big hand and personally led thousands of cavalry to slow down the speed of the horses. He was soon overtaken by the firearm army and fell in the end. When Xue yantuo''s cavalry was about to catch up, the thousands of Turkic cavalry accelerated. Their bows and arrows kept shooting back. For a moment, Xue yantuo''s cavalry turned upside down and the momentum of pursuit was a meal.


    "After the Turkic cavalry came to an end, it seems that the prince guessed right. The firearm army''s horses were indeed out of strength." Dadu gave a cold hum and waved his hand. Xue yantuo''s cavalry did not entangle with the Turkic cavalry, but directly divided into two to avoid the Turkic cavalry. It was like two huge wings, trying to catch the firearm army and Turkic cavalry.


    "Withdraw!"


    Seeing that the situation was bad, Li Simo immediately retreated with all his strength. At the same time, the arrows in the hands of the Turkic cavalry did not stop, trying to stop Xue yantuo''s cavalry.


    However, all this was futile. Xue yantuo''s cavalry seemed to be less than casualties. They had to move forward at full speed at the risk of arrow rain, which was bound to surround the firearm army and the Turkic cavalry.


    "Go!"


    Seeing more and more Xue yantuo cavalry on both wings, Li Simo immediately knew that the situation was over, made a quick decision and decided to break through. If he dragged on, even the Turks would be buried here.


    The Turkic cavalry accelerated their horsepower, quickly surpassed the firearm army, and broke through without turning back.


    "Ashnasmo dares to abandon his allies and flee!" seeing the Turkic cavalry disappearing gradually, his eldest son was shocked and angry. If Li Simo fought with the firearm army, the firearm army would not have the strength of a war.


    "General! Sima Khan''s decision is correct. The firearm army can''t run away from Xue yantuo''s cavalry. Once surrounded by Xue yantuo, it''s difficult for the Turkic cavalry to get away." although sun wukai was dissatisfied with ashnashma''s leaving alone, he also told the truth.


    "The firearm army is dragged down by the baggage. We just need to abandon the baggage and weapons, and we can break through." Chang sun Chong said in his heart.


    Sun wukai smiled sadly and said, "it is a great humiliation for soldiers to lose their armor, not to mention the firearm army, which has the reputation of being the most powerful in the world. If we don''t shoot an arrow, we won''t be able to see anyone even back to the Tang Dynasty."


    "You''re looking for death. 3000 against 200000. This is a doomed game." Chang sun roared.


    "So what? Our soldiers are risking life and death. We can die, but the honor of the Tang army can''t be lost." sun wukai generously said. Other Tang soldiers nodded one after another, especially the veterans who had participated in the western expedition to Gaochang, who valued this honor more than life.


    "You''re all crazy. As long as you''re here, the firearms prison can make a comeback, but it''s just the loss of some armor and weapons." Chang sun Chong didn''t understand.


    "No, what we have lost is the honor of Datang, the belief of a soldier, and no soldier is willing to lose without fighting." sun wukai said firmly.


    Chang sun Chong could not help but be silent. However, looking at the approaching Xue yantuo cavalry, his heart could not help pouring out the fear of life and death.


    "It''s our fate to die in battle, and the general is a civil servant. There''s no need to do this. Please go to General Li Ji for help. We may have a glimmer of hope." sun wukai saw through Chang sun Chong''s mind and gave Chang sun Chong a step down.


    Chang sun Chong was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw and nodded: "yes, from now on, the firearm army will be handed over to commander sun wukai, and the general will go for help immediately."


    In the disdainful eyes of the firearm soldiers, Chang sun Chong immediately rode a thousand mile horse under his crotch towards the direction of Li Simo''s breakthrough. He knew that from now on, he had no prestige in the firearm army. However, he was desperate to survive.


    "Tidy up gunpowder and weapons and prepare for battle. Even if the battle is dead, Xue yantuo people should know the power of the firearm army." sun wukai said solemnly.


    "Yes, general!" a group of firearm supervisors said proudly.


    Sun Wu said in a cheerful voice: "moreover, we are not hopeless in this war. Our armor weapons are the first in the world. Xue yantuo is not an opponent at all. Only Xue yantuo, who killed him, has a glimmer of vitality, and is restrained by Sima Khan. We can win by insisting on the arrival of General Li Ji''s reinforcements. Moreover, we are not without help."


    Sun Wu opened his eyes to the 3000 Turkic cavalry not far away who were also equipped with Tang armor. The firearm army could not run fast, while the Turkic cavalry led by he ganchengji was also equipped with Tang armor, which was no better than the firearm army,


    At that moment, Sun Wu immediately went to the 3000 heavy armour Turkic cavalry and said in a loud voice in front of Hegan Chengji: "there is still a chance for you and me to join the army, and Turks still have a chance of life. Otherwise, once the firearm army is defeated, you and Turks will perish."


    Hegan Chengji also had the idea of letting his soldiers break out of the siege, but the three thousand heavy armor was too important for Turks. Without the three thousand heavy armor, Turks'' strength would drop greatly, which would double Xue yantuo''s strength. Let alone once the firearm army was destroyed, the next round would come to Turks. Turks could not hate Datang and Xue yantuo at the same time.


    "Willing to be sent by general sun!" Hegan Chengji bowed his head. He was willing to sacrifice his life for the Turks, and he believed that the 3000 heavy Armored Cavalry behind him were also willing to fight for the Turks.


    Sun wukai smiled and said proudly, "slow down, save your horsepower and get ready to fight!"


    Immediately, three thousand firearm troops and three thousand Turkic heavy Armored Cavalry joined together to form a defense formation, like an iron jungle.


    At the same time, the open wings of Xue yantuo''s cavalry suddenly closed and surrounded the firearm Corps.

 Chapter 1259

    "The firearm army and heavy Armored Cavalry are trapped!"


    Li Simo looked back and saw that Xue yantuo''s cavalry drowned the firearm army and 3000 heavy armor cavalry. Then there was a violent sound of gunpowder. It was obvious that the firearm army was trying to break through the siege with gunpowder.


    Sure enough, the power of gunpowder was unparalleled, and the firearm army quickly burst out. However, Xue yantuo''s cavalry were brave and did not fear death. They went to encircle them. The firearm army broke out of the siege several times, and was surrounded by Xue yantuo''s cavalry several times. Finally, they never rushed out again.


    "It''s over!"


    Li Si Morton felt a pain in his heart. He was a fierce general in the army. Naturally, he knew the consequences of 6000 people and horses being surrounded by 200000 cavalry. Even if the attack power of the firearm army was strong, the vehicle wheel battle could kill the firearm army.


    The firearm army is the face of the Tang Dynasty. This time, if it is damaged in the grassland, he can''t blame it, let alone the leader of the firearm army is the nephew of the empress of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid the Turks will really hate the Tang Dynasty this time. What makes him more sad is the 3000 heavy armor cavalry led by he ganchengji, which is the trump card of the Turks. Now I''m afraid it will fall into Xue yantuo''s hands, As a result, Xue yantuo''s wings were strengthened, and the situation of Turks was probably even more difficult.


    "Someone escaped!" suddenly a Turkic marksman with sharp eyes saw a fast horse rushing out of the encirclement.


    "General Chang sun!"


    Li Simo was pleasantly surprised. He found that it was Chang sun Chong who escaped. He was immediately overjoyed. As long as Chang sun Chong was still alive, there was room for the Turkic situation to turn around.


    Looking at the thousands of troops behind him, Chang sun Chong felt a sense of survival. However, when he was safe, he found himself in an awkward situation. After all, the firearm army was heavily surrounded, but he abandoned the army and fled. In any case, he was to blame.


    "It''s not easy for Xue yantuo to eat 6000 heavily armed soldiers and gunpowder weapons of the firearm army. As long as the Turks try their best to contain Xue yantuo and reduce the pressure for the firearm army, we have no chance to turn defeat into victory until general Li Ji arrives." Chang sun Chong came directly to Li Simo and said bluntly.


    As long as he can save the firearm army, cooperate with the Tang army to blossom inside and outside and defeat Xue yantuo, he can not only cover up his crime of abandoning the army and fleeing, but also make great achievements. The Turkic cavalry is the most important part of this plan.


    "This..."


    Lismorton hesitated for a while. He finally broke out of the encirclement, but now he has to take risks, which makes him hesitate.


    Seeing this, Chang sun Chong couldn''t help humming: "it doesn''t matter whether our Datang was defeated or not, but it''s a battle of life and death for Turks. Even Turks themselves don''t want to work hard. Do they still want to wait for the soldiers of Datang to lay down the grassland and hand it to Turks."


    Hearing Chang sun Chong''s threat, Li Simo knew in his heart that if he didn''t fight the firearm army this time, he would completely lose Datang''s trust. It would be difficult to get Datang''s assistance again. Moreover, what Chang sun Chong said is not unreasonable. There is no turning point in this war. They just need to hold on until Datang''s reinforcements arrive.


    "OK! Ben Khan gambled on the lives of hundreds of thousands of Turkic herdsmen. He hoped that general changsun would go to the Tang army for help and be sure to invite reinforcements as soon as possible." Li Simo solemnly said that he might as well fight for it instead of losing the ground and the Turks fell.


    "Go and ask for help?" Chang sun Chong shook his head and said, "the general doesn''t know. Our firearm army doesn''t need to send a message quickly, but there''s another magic way."


    At that moment, Chang sun Chong took out a long paper tube from his horse''s back. The lighter in his hand rubbed slightly and lit the lead. Chang sun Chong aimed it at the sky and soon burned out the lead.


    With a dull sound, a dazzling light rose into the air, which immediately attracted the attention of all people on the grassland, even the warring sides.


    "Boom!"


    The light exploded in the air, making a violent sound and emitting colorful clouds for a long time.


    "Is this?" Li Simo suddenly remembered the legendary deeds of Mohist Zi in Tuyuhun. It is said that Mohist Zi has a gunpowder weapon that can reverse Yin and Yang, which can make the Tang army act like day in the dark, and the gunpowder weapon in front of him also emits strong light in the daytime, which is very similar to that weapon.


    "Yes, this is a signal gun made from the weapon of reversing Yin and Yang. Once it is sent out, it can be seen for tens of miles. Once General Li Ji sees it, he will come right at the first time. From the general''s point of view, this weapon can not only reverse Yin and Yang, but also reverse life and death and reverse victory and defeat." Chang sun Chong said proudly, Although he didn''t understand why mojiazi named this weapon signal gun, it didn''t prevent him from showing off to Li Simo.


    Li Simo could not help nodding slightly. The grassland was flat and there were no trees and terrain obstacles. The role of the signal gun was brought into full play. I''m afraid you can really see the light and smoke of the signal gun dozens of miles away. According to the itinerary, I''m afraid the Datang reinforcements are in this area.


    At present, Li Simo no longer hesitated. With a big hand, 40000 Turkic elite cavalry turned their horses and went towards Xue yantuo''s army, harassing Xue yantuo''s cavalry from the periphery, so as to reduce the pressure of the besieged firearm army.


    Chang sun Chong was relieved. When the firearm supervisor sent the designed signal gun to the firearm army, Chang sun Chong didn''t think so. He didn''t expect it to come in handy at this time.


    "Weapons to reverse Yin and Yang!" when Dadushi saw the signal gun, he immediately thought of the legendary weapons from Tuyuhun. He was embarrassed. Tuyuhun and Gaochang met only one of the weapons to reverse Yin and Yang, but he encountered it at the same time. With his eyes, he naturally thought of the purpose of the signal gun. Whether Tang Jun heard the sound, Or see the flash and clouds, you will know the location of the firearm army.


    "Chang sun Chong, it''s a pity that mojiazi left so many weapons for you, but you buried them all yourself." Dadushi sneered at the firearm army that had been besieged. The firearm army was only 3000, and he surrounded him with 100000 people. Maybe mojiazi can make another miracle in the face of the firearm army that had lost mojiazi, Xue yantuo already has a winning ticket.


    "Kill, kill the firearm army immediately!" Dadu said coldly. As long as he eliminated the fire extinguisher army in the shortest time, he would not be afraid of any more Tang army.


    Immediately, Xue yantuo cavalry, with more than ten times the number of people, besieged the firearm army and Turkic heavy armor cavalry.


    "Be sure to hold on. The general has sent out a signal gun for help, and the reinforcements will come soon." sun wukai shouted loudly to boost morale. At the same time, Hegan Chengji is also boosting the morale of heavy Armored Cavalry.


    When the reinforcements were coming, Li Simo restrained them on the periphery, and they wore heavy armor and had a certain self-protection ability. For a moment, the firearm army and heavy armor cavalry were highly motivated and faced the fierce attack of Xue yantuo cavalry.


    "Boom, boom!"


    Facing the siege of Xue yantuo''s army, the firearm army spared no effort to use gunpowder and weapons. Hand grenades hit Xue yantuo''s cavalry like raindrops. They immediately blew up the people of Xue yantuo''s cavalry, and the Turkic heavy armour cavalry rushed to kill them. Relying on the advantage of armour, they reaped the advantage of Xue yantuo''s cavalry.


    Looking at Xue yantuo''s badly wounded cavalry, he was generous to cry blood. He thought that even if he changed one, Xue yantuo would only lose thousands of people at most and would not hurt his muscles and bones. However, Xue yantuo has lost thousands of people, while the Turkic heavy armor cavalry has lost less than 10%, and the firearm army is almost intact.


    You should know that every grassland cavalry is a valuable combat force and labor force. If this continues, Xue yantuo can''t afford the final loss even if he finally destroys the firearm army.


    "We must destroy the firearm army as soon as possible." Dadushi said firmly. Once the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty arrive and the firearm army and the Tang army attack inside and outside, Xue yantuo will be in danger.


    "But the Tang army armor is so sharp that our warriors can''t break the Tang army armor." Engel said bitterly. He has suffered a lot. Not to mention the firearm army with gunpowder weapons, even the Turkic cavalry wearing Tang armor is difficult for him to deal with.


    Magnanimous set his eyes and said, "the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are really sharp, but I don''t believe they even wear armor. Send orders to shoot all the horses of the firearm army. I want to turn the firearm army into infantry."


    "The prince is wise!" engeldon was as surprised as heaven and man. Xue yantuo''s cavalry can''t beat the Tang cavalry, and can''t beat the Tang infantry. Once the firearm army loses its horses, it''s not fish on the sticky board, so Xue yantuo can kill it.


    "Shoot!"


    With Engel''s order, Xue yantuo''s cavalry no longer fought hard with the firearm army, but adopted siege, and used bows and arrows to shoot the firearm army''s horses from a long distance.


    "Hey, law!"


    With the wailing of the war horses, the war horses of the firearm army were attacked one after another and fell in a pool of blood. Soon, the three thousand firearm army became three thousand infantry.


    The firearm army is in danger!

 Chapter 1260

    "The general is the third distress signal gun!"


    Ten miles away, a Tang will look at the colorful clouds in the sky and yell.


    Li Ji didn''t panic and said: "don''t worry, the firearm army has gunpowder weapons in hand, and the strongest armour made by Mohism. It can attack and defend. Xue yantuo can''t break the firearm army in a short time."


    He has witnessed the strength of the firearm army with his own eyes. Even he doesn''t want to meet this abnormal attack army. Xue yantuo wants to make a strong attack, so he has to fill it with human life.


    "But there is a eldest son-in-law in the firearm army. If there is a mistake, the general can''t explain it!" general Tang said with some worry.


    Li Ji snorted coldly, "what''s wrong with the general? The original plan was that the firearm army was waiting for the general to attack together, but Chang sun Chong was greedy for merit and rash advance, otherwise there would be no siege today."


    "Having said that, if our army doesn''t save at the sight of death and watches the firearm army surrounded, I''m afraid it will be criticized by the court after returning to the court." the deputy general asked.


    Li Ji remained unmoved and said, "when you are a soldier in war, you must have the consciousness of dressing up and wrapping your body. The firearm army takes the Turkic cavalry as the bait. Naturally, the general can also use the firearm army as the bait. What you plan for the general is the overall situation, not one''s life and death."


    Chang sun Chong never thought that he, who had always been a fisherman, would be used as bait one day. Li Ji had already arrived in the grassland and saw the distress signal of the firearm army. However, Li Ji did not act rashly, but quietly arranged. After all, the purpose of their attack this time was not just to defeat Xue yantuo, but to weaken the overall strength of the grassland, Ensure 30 years of peace on the border of Datang.


    "The fourth distress signal gun." the deputy general looked at the signal light rising again and said anxiously.


    Li Ji was as steady as Mount Tai and had no intention of sending troops.


    "The fifth distress signal gun." the deputy general is as anxious as a hot pot ant. What Li Ji said is not wrong. It depends on people. If changsun Chong dies in the chaotic army, even if Li Shimin''s level is better, changsun Wuji''s level can''t pass. You know that changsun Chong is the eldest son of changsun Wuji.


    Li Ji turned a deaf ear and continued to observe the war with a telescope,.


    It was not until the sixth and seventh signal guns were raised at the same time that Li Ji suddenly put down his telescope and waved his big hand: "the whole army attack!"


    With Li Ji''s order, tens of thousands of Datang cavalry suddenly moved and attacked the position of the signal gun.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Sun Wu cut down a Xue yantuo cavalry with a knife. He looked up at the long-standing color fog in the sky. His face was bitter. Now it was the seventh signal bomb, and the reinforcements did not appear.


    "Kill!"


    Sun wukai took a Xue yantuo cavalry off his horse with a long gun. Today''s firearm army has already run out of gunpowder and weapons and has begun to fight hand to hand with knives and guns. However, the firearm army that has lost its horses has become an infantry. Facing Xue yantuo cavalry, it is natural that the firearm army is at a disadvantage. Fortunately, the firearm army is equipped with the most sophisticated weapons made by Mohist village, even if it is besieged, It still caused great losses to Xue yantuo cavalry.


    However, the number of Xue yantuo cavalry is too large. They use the sea of people tactics to surround and kill the firearm army. Soon, the physical strength of the firearm army has been almost consumed. Even with the best armor protection, casualties are still inevitable.


    Dadushi also shed blood. This time, Xue yantuo, the firearm army, was besieged and lost too much. Fortunately, all these efforts have finally reaped. The firearm army is at a dead end.


    Once the firearm army is eliminated and the Turks are defeated, Xue yantuo has the capital to fight it, even if Datang blames it afterwards.


    "Kill me."


    Dadushi was about to order the killing of all, when suddenly there was a vibration on the ground.


    Dadushi suddenly looked up and saw a torrent of steel rolling from the south.


    "Tang Jun is coming!"


    Suddenly, Dadu was cold. Xue yantuo traveled a long way to pursue the firearm army and fought with the firearm army for a long time. He had been tired for a long time, but the Tang army in front of him was a new force with more weapons advantages. Coupled with the prestige of the Tang army to destroy the Three Kingdoms, Dadu was awed.


    "Tang Jun is coming!"


    Contrary to the magnanimous design, Li Simo''s heart is full of joy. Today''s 40000 Turkic cavalry have suffered a lot of casualties. He still gritted his teeth and insisted. Fortunately, his persistence finally paid off. Li Ji''s army finally arrived and Turks have the hope of turning over.


    Chang sun Chong was relieved. He looked at the rolling Tang army and congratulated himself. He was not only lucky for the rest of the firearm army, but also for himself.


    "Meet the enemy!"


    With a big hand waved, he sounded the battle horn, with 200000 cavalry in hand. Even if the Tang army was famous, he also had the confidence to fight with it.


    As Xue yantuo''s cavalry turned his horse''s head, the pressure of the firearm army suddenly lightened. Sun wukai realized that the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty had come! I was relieved.


    "Form an array to protect themselves and treat the wounded!" sun wukai stopped the continued attack of the firearm Army soldiers. Xue yantuo cavalry began to plan for self-protection. Every firearm Army soldier is the most valuable asset. The responsibility of sun Chong to live one more person is lighter, not to mention that the firearm Army has lost its horses and the strongest gunpowder weapons, which has nothing to do with the overall situation of the war.


    Even if they are exhausted, the well-trained firearms army still forms battle quickly and quickly treats the wounded. This is a compulsory course for the firearms army training. At the same time, the firearms army does not forget to gather the defeated Turkic heavy armor cavalry and treat the surviving Turkic heavy armor cavalry. After all, the firearms army can survive, and 3000 Turkic heavy armor cavalry help the firearms army share a lot of pressure.


    At the same time, Xue yantuo''s cavalry and the Tang cavalry collided like two torrents. Where can the blood and flesh torrent defeat the steel torrent? At the touch, the two sides stood high and low. The steel torrent of the Tang cavalry was like a meat grinder, harvesting the lives of Xue yantuo''s cavalry madly. In a short time, Xue yantuo''s cavalry suffered heavy losses.


    "Withdraw!"


    Magnanimous set it clear that nothing can be done in vain. If it is delayed, the whole Xue yantuo will be buried here.


    "Want to withdraw! How can it be so easy!" Li jileng snorted. He risked offending his eldest sun Wuji and took the firearm army as bait. How Can Xue yantuo withdraw smoothly.


    At the same time, Li Simo''s Turkic cavalry were not idle and began to surround Xue yantuo''s cavalry.


    Xue yantuo''s cavalry, once mighty and carrying 200000 cavalry south, immediately collapsed and scattered under a large number of casualties.


    Li Ji''s army took the opportunity to kill tens of miles and captured tens of thousands of Xue yantuo cavalry. The only regret is that Dadushi escaped and saved his life.


    In this war, the Tang army still maintained the myth of invincibility.

 Chapter 1261

    "Win! Turks win!" Li Simo saw the scattered and fleeing cavalry on the grassland. He couldn''t help roaring up to the sky. This was the most important war for Turks to return to the grassland. From then on, Turks will really have a foothold on the grassland and eventually restore the former glory of Turks.


    The rest of the Turks also cheered. The victory in the war was not only a place for them to survive, but also the first step for Turks to return to the overlord of the grassland.


    "A complete failure."


    Looking at the cheering Tang army and Turkic cavalry, Chang sun Chong felt bitter. Tang won, but he lost in a mess. The firearm army showed commendable performance in this battle. As a general, he first greedy for work and rashly pushed the firearm army into a tight encirclement, and then abandoned the army to protect his life. I''m afraid this time, He lost his prestige in the hearts of the firearm soldiers.


    "Thanks to the general who risked his life to invite reinforcements, the firearms army survived." Sun Wu shamelessly flattered and covered his shame for Chang sun Chong.


    "The general did everything for the firearm army." Chang sun Chong said shamelessly. However, the bright armor on his body formed a sharp contrast with the bloody armor on the firearm soldiers, which was particularly ironic.


    Many officers and men of the firearm army showed disdain one after another, especially the veterans of the firearm army compared it with Mohist Zi. When Mohist Zi was besieged by Turkic cavalry in the 800 Li Han sea, he did not abandon the army and fled, but used the terrain to turn defeat into victory. When they compared, they could be said to be superior and make a judgment.


    However, Chang sun Chong seemed to turn a blind eye and began to shuttle among the wounded soldiers, booing the wounded soldiers, offering rich rewards to the dead firearm soldiers, and making official wishes to the surviving firearm soldiers.


    "Only by keeping the general can we keep the firearm army. If General Chang sun is framed by villains and the firearm army becomes a defeated army, I''m afraid you will be laughed at by people all over the world." Sun Wu denounced.


    Driven by interests and under the power of Chang sun Chong, the firearm soldiers helplessly lowered their heads.


    Chang sun Chong''s mouth showed a trace of pride. As a dandy, he was the most handy in dealing with such things. This was also the confidence that he dared to abandon the army and flee. Coupled with Chang sun Chong''s power, he was sure to cover up the matter.


    However, this is not enough. Chang sun Chong turns his eyes to Li Simo, who has won the victory, because under Li Simo''s command, he has brought back tens of thousands of prisoners from all parts of the grassland.


    "What, the firearm army cut 5000 and captured tens of thousands."


    In the account of the Tang army, Li Ji looked at the war report sent by the firearm army and couldn''t help but frown. The firearm army had sent seven distress signals before he sent out. The firearm army was already at a dead end. After the beautification of Chang sun Chong, it became the mainstay of the war. With 3000 vulnerable troops, it restrained 200000 troops, and finally turned the tide, killing 5000 Xue yantuo cavalry, And cooperated with the Tang army, defeated Xue yantuo and captured tens of thousands of prisoners of war.


    According to the war report of Chang sun Chong, he should be the first in this war. He fought 200000 grassland cavalry with 3000 firearm troops, which is even more magical than the achievements of Mohism.


    "As far as I know, Xue yantuo''s troops besieged the firearm army, while the firearm army captured the grassland departments. What''s the matter?" Li Ji questioned.


    "This!" the deputy general hesitated.


    "The crime of buying and selling war merit is even worse. These dandies are really pests in the army." Li Ji snorted angrily. With his many years of experience in the army, he easily spied through Chang sun Chong''s trick.


    The deputy general quickly stopped and said, "think twice, general. I''m afraid we''ve annoyed the Chang Sun family by using the firearm army as bait to send it back to Chang''an city. If we refute the battle report of Chang sun Chong, I''m afraid we''ll really hate the Chang Sun family."


    Li Ji frowned. As a childe, Chang sun Chong tried his best to come to the grassland to get credit. The purpose is naturally to gild. If he broke Chang sun Chong''s golden body, I''m afraid he really offended and killed the Chang Sun family. You know, the eldest son of any family is the heir of the family and has devoted all his resources and efforts.


    Li Ji sneered: "then report according to Chang sun Chong''s military achievements. If he can pass the pass of the military judge, it will be the ability of Chang sun''s house."


    Li Ji is not just like Wei Zheng. He doesn''t know how to be flexible. Otherwise, future generations will not support Wu Zhou. He won''t collude with others, but he won''t be an isolated minister. He can either sit and watch Chang sun Chong''s firearm army fall into a siege, or turn a blind eye to Chang sun Chong''s false military achievements.


    And he still has a more important thing to do now, that is to frighten all parts of the grassland and lay a border peace for Datang for decades.


    "Where are the messengers from all parts of the grassland?" Li jileng shouted.


    The deputy general said proudly, "don''t worry, general. The envoys of all parts of the grassland have been waiting outside the military account."


    The war between Turks and Xue yantuo has ended. Xue yantuo was defeated miserably and the grassland overlord has changed his position. They naturally want to rely on the winner. Although Xue yantuo has fled to the north, other ministries have not left, but sent envoys to surrender.


    However, in this war, the most outstanding were the firearms army of the Tang Dynasty and Li Ji''s cavalry of the Tang Dynasty. These envoys wanted to surrender, so they naturally wanted to surrender to the strongest, so they found Li Ji''s military account one after another.


    "I''ll see the general!"


    In the military account, Li Ji''s armor was all over, and the envoys of all parts of the grassland were frightened and saluted quickly.


    "Tian Khan once issued an imperial edict to let you keep the border and not attack each other, but you crossed the border and attacked Turks without authorization. What crime should you do?" Li Ji scolded.


    The messenger of Huihe quickly shouted, "general, stop your anger. We are also kidnapped by Xue yantuo. We are helpless, otherwise we will be the first to destroy the family."


    "However, Xue yantuo wanted us to attack Tang Jun at that time, but we resolutely refused."


    "Although we were kidnapped by Xue yantuo, we were still interested in the Tang Dynasty and didn''t dare to use our swords against the Tang Dynasty. As soon as the general arrived, we immediately withdrew."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The envoys of all departments shouted their grievances one by one and put the responsibility on Xue yantuo. For a moment, Xue yantuo broke the drum and ten thousand people beat it.


    "Fortunately, you didn''t use your sword against Datang, otherwise you would still have your life to stand in front of the general?" Li Ji shouted. He naturally knew the style of these wall grass, but when the Tang army attacked, the cavalry of all parts of the grassland really avoided one after another and pushed Xue yantuo to the table, otherwise all parts of the grassland would help, Even if Datang defeated Xue yantuo, it would suffer heavy losses.


    "Please raise your hand. We will follow the lead of the Tang Dynasty in the future." Huihe emissary heard his intention and immediately defected.


    For a long time, after the rise of Xue yantuo, Datang began to support Huihe to contain Xue yantuo. The relationship between Huihe and Datang has always been good, and it took the initiative to surrender.


    "Please give me a hand, general. We will follow the lead of the Tang Dynasty in the future." other envoys of all departments have defected and made good to the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Ji nodded with satisfaction and said, "since you sincerely repent, this general is not unreasonable. In the future, there will be tribes that do not abide by tiankhan''s orders, don''t blame the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty for being ruthless. Xue yantuo is your example."


    "We will abide by the order of the Tang Dynasty." the envoys of the grassland Department sighed with great relief and bowed down.


    "But we just hated the Turks, if the Turks retaliated against us!" the Khitan envoy said carefully. This time, Khitan would offend the Turks the most, and the Turks suffered heavy losses. If the Turks retaliated against the Turks, I''m afraid Khitan would only end up killing the nation.


    Li Ji raised his eyebrows and said in a loud voice, "didn''t Tian Khan order that all parts of the grassland should keep their own borders and should not attack each other."


    What Datang wants is not the unity of the whole grassland. There are many contradictions among the grassland departments, but it is conducive to the containment of Datang. Since they can no longer attack Turks, Turks can no longer attack them,


    The Khitan messenger was overjoyed and said, "thank you, Tian Khan. Khitan will pay tribute to Tian Khan every year in the future to show Khitan''s loyalty."


    Other messengers also breathed a sigh of relief. With the guarantee of Datang, they were not afraid of Turkic retaliation. They finally escaped the fierce battle for the supremacy of the grassland by relying on the unique skills of the wall grass.


    "We have one more thing to ask. Before, we were kidnapped by Xue yantuo and many herdsmen were captured by the Chinese army. I wonder if the general can let them go and let them live." the servant bone messenger begged.


    The leaders of other departments begged one after another, and many people were captured in almost all departments.


    Li Ji pondered for a moment and said, "each prisoner exchanges two excellent horses. One hand is for horses and the other hand is for people."


    "Yes!"


    The leaders of each department looked at each other and nodded. They should know that every grassland warrior is not only a soldier but also a valuable labor force.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Outside the Datang military camp, Li Simo led a group of Turkic generals to look at the envoys who rushed out. They couldn''t help looking embarrassed. They originally thought that after this battle, Turks would order all parts of the grassland to regain the position of overlord.


    However, the cruel reality gave them a heavy slap. He won the Turks, but the biggest victory was seized by the Tang Dynasty, that is, the power to command the grassland. Now all grassland departments only recognize the Tang Dynasty and do not recognize the East Turks. Now there is only one Khan on the grassland, that is, Tian Khan Li Shimin.


    "Where''s Chang sun Chong? He won''t just say he didn''t help because he took so many benefits from Turks!" a Turkic general said discontentedly.


    Li Simo shook his head and said, "this is the decision of the Tang Dynasty hall, and there is nothing changsun Chong can do."


    Hegan Chengji felt extremely painful. In order to restore the glory of Turks, he did not hesitate to take risks. Finally, he risked his life. However, he found that there was a big mountain on the head of Turks, that is, Datang, their former backer.


    If the Turks want to return to the position of overlord, they must overthrow the mountain above them. However, he is cold at the thought of the power of the firearm army. Today''s Datang can''t be defeated by force.


    "There is only one way to eliminate the Tang Dynasty''s control over the grassland, that is, the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty." he ganchengji secretly calculated that every chaos in the Central Plains is the most prominent time for all parts of the grassland. Although the Tang Dynasty is at its peak, it is not impossible to have a chaos, and the simplest and most direct way is the struggle for the throne.


    If you want to get involved in the struggle for the throne of the Tang Dynasty and set off a bloody storm, you must return to Chang''an City and the power center of the Tang Dynasty. He happens to have a stepping stone to return to Chang''an City, which is the criminal evidence of Chang sun''s reckless advance, abandoning the army and buying and selling military achievements.


    Hegan Chengji looked around and quietly buried the plan in his heart. He could sacrifice everything, including his own life, for the sake of Turks.

 Chapter 1262

    As soon as the war on the grassland stopped, all parts of the grassland were surging. With the permission of the Tang army, the small tribes were ready to come to Chang''an city to pay tribute as soon as possible. The defeated Xue yantuo was ready to spend a lot of money to ask Tian Khan for understanding, while the Turks had hidden ambition to plunge Datang into civil strife and get rid of Datang''s control. However, all these plans will be realized in Chang''an city.


    In Chang''an City, yin and Yang looked at the black clouds that had increased out of thin air over Chang''an City and frowned. He had been in Chang''an City for a month, but he had not found any flaws in the Mohist school, let alone the lucky son who could break the situation.


    What embarrassed Yin and Yang Zi even more was that instead of being able to win the Mohist school, he was even more lucky in the Mohist village.


    Yin Yang Zi turned his head slightly and looked at the tall Mohist building under the dark cloud. His face was full of dignity. Today is the time for Mohist to disclose the method of accurate time, and the towering building is the bottom card of Mohist.


    "It''s too high for the Mohist school to build such a high building on the mechanism city." a Confucian student gloated.


    A merchant nearby sneered: "you are really wishful thinking. The MOH family will not think of this. Since ancient times, any ultra-high building must have special significance, just like the pagoda of Buddhism. It is not the same, but it is allowed by the imperial court."


    The Confucian student humed coldly, "it''s just a dream. The pagoda is the existence of worshiping the Buddha and communicating with the gods. The Mohists don''t believe in ghosts and gods. How can he de be compared with the pagoda."


    The merchant smiled mysteriously and said, "you don''t know. The over made buildings in the mechanism city were built by the Mohist school to redefine the time. They are called four clocks. The world needs accurate time. Over time, the four clocks are all over the cities of the Tang Dynasty, which is convenient for millions of people. Their scale and function may not be inferior to the Buddhist pagodas."


    Pagodas may not exist in every city, but merchants believe that if the Mohist school really builds a practical four-sided clock, it will certainly appear in every city.


    "Four bells!" the Confucian scholar was stunned. He looked up at the super-high building above his head and found that the building was indeed visible on all sides. He immediately understood the intention of the four bells.


    "Indeed, the Mohist school was a little quick witted. The Taoist school used a sundial to represent time, and the world could only watch closely. The Mohist school would rather surpass the system and build the four clocks as tall as a pagoda. In this way, even if you can see them from a long distance, I''m afraid the Taoist school should have a headache this time." the Confucian gloated. From this point alone, the four clocks are better than the Taoist sundial.


    "The sundial has the sun pointing to the time. At most two sides of the four clocks face the sun. How do the two sides of the shade indicate the time?" said a believer.


    "It depends on the ability of Mohist school! It''s a big deal to use manpower!" the Confucian said with a smile. Even he thought of this method. I believe Mohist school can think of it. In this way, when the three schools compete, Taoism has taken the lead out.


    "When!"


    However, before the Confucianists'' smile solidified, a huge bell rang from the four clocks. It was obvious that there were Mohist children auditioning in the four clocks.


    "It''s despicable for the Mohists to copy Taoism and even copy Confucianism!" the Confucianism was angry and defeated the Taoism. The bells in the four clocks were so loud that they could almost spread to half of Chang''an city. It was obviously much better to use the bell instead of the sound of playing watch than to only spread to one street.


    "It''s not just Taoism and Confucianism. The clock used by the four side clock is the same as the morning clock in the temple. I''m afraid even Buddhism will jump this time." Yin and Yang, who listened attentively, said with a smile.


    "Shifu, the Mohist school is really despicable. He first threw out the bait to redefine the time to stimulate the reform time of Taoism and Buddhism, but he combined the strengths of the three schools and beat the others later. There''s no need to compete. The Mohist school won this game." the little mage shook his head and sighed.


    "The Mohist family is victorious, but it is invincible. I''m afraid neither Taoism nor Confucianism is convinced." Yin-Yang Zi gloated at the way. Yin-yang families are happy to see the success of the contradictions of other 100 families, so that yin-yang families can find their flaws and make use of them.


    "The Mohist school is nothing more than that!" the little mage disagreed. Chang''an City used to praise the Mohist school, but now it seems that the Mohist school is just a generation of people who live in camp.


    As soon as the little mage''s voice fell, he saw the surrounding cloth shrouded in the four clocks falling, and the huge hollow sundial appeared in everyone''s eyes.


    "That''s right!" the little mage couldn''t help humming when he saw the sundial pattern in the sky. Confucianism really copied the Taoist sundial. Although the yin-yang school didn''t deal with the Taoist school, it had a deep origin after all. The little mage immediately felt the same and fought against injustice.


    "No, the Mohist family has some skills. He even gave up the sundial method and used three pointers to replace time. In this way, even the clock face on the back, or cloudy day and night, will not affect the movement of the four clocks, which is further than the sundial method of Taoism." Yin and Yang took a deep breath in his airway, The most powerful thing about mojiazi is that he can go further on the basis of others.


    "No matter how powerful it is, it''s not copying others." the Confucian student snorted coldly.


    "Hour, minute, second!"


    Soon, the latest news came that the three hands of the four side clock of Mohism represented hour, minute and second respectively, which was different from the traditional sundial''s timing method of hour, inscription, word and second.


    "Look, the longest hands of the four clocks are moving!" suddenly there was a cry in the crowd.


    "That''s the second hand!" someone explained. Every time the second hand moves, it means that time is passing.


    "The passing of time is like this. I didn''t understand the essence of master before. Now I see that the second hand doesn''t move, which means that my life has passed a second." a scholar sighed.


    Yin and Yang stared at the second hand and turned with the second hand. However, with the continuous movement of the second hand, his heart was more and more shocked, because he found that the time of each second hand was exactly the same, that is, the smallest time unit of Mohism - second.


    "The minute hand is moving too!" exclaimed a sharp eyed people in the crowd.


    Yin and Yang''s eyes coagulated, and sure enough, he found that with the second hand turning one circle, the medium length minute hand also moved one space. It can be inferred that once the medium length minute hand rotates once, the pointer representing the hour will certainly move to the corresponding position.


    "One minute is sixty seconds! It''s the same as sixty-one Jiazi''s, and every second is extremely accurate." Yin and Yang Zi''s face was dignified. The battle over time finally ended with the victory of Mohist Zi, who indeed accurate the smallest unit of time - second.


    The Mohists won the battle over time.

 Chapter 1263

    "How did mojiazi do it?" the little mage was shocked. At this moment, his face no longer had the previous contempt, and his awe of mojiazi increased sharply. Since mojiazi can be accurate to seconds, can it be accurate to how many seconds each minute is, how many seconds each moment is, how many seconds each hour is, or even how many seconds each day, The number of seconds per year can be calculated accurately.


    "I think mojiazi has made the answer public." Yin and Yang Zi saw that under the four clocks, a huge pendulum clock was constantly swinging. With one swing, the second hand had moved.


    "The Mohist machinery is really magical, and actually thought of such a magical method." the onlookers of Chang''an people also instantly understood this truth. It turned out that the time of each swing of the pendulum is fixed. Mohist Zi defined the time of one swing of the pendulum as one second, which is much better than the Taoist definition of one breath as one second.


    "You don''t know. It is said that Mohist discovered the principle of pendulum clock and benefited from a love story under the swing." a mysterious gossip of Chang''an people.


    "And such things, say it quickly!" the people around immediately coaxed.


    "It is said that the senior sister of the Mohist School and his Highness the king of Jin were dating under the swing. After being discovered by the Mohist school, he was not punished. Instead, the Mohist School got the inspiration of pendulum clock from the swing."


    At present, the gossip man added fuel and vinegar to explain the principle of Merton''s discovery of the pendulum clock. Naturally, he ignored the punishment of Mosha and mertan, but shifted the focus to the dog blood Acacia of Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi.


    "Er!"


    Everyone looked at each other. They didn''t expect that such a significant invention should be related to a man and a woman swinging under the moon and flowers.


    "Who hasn''t played on the swing, but we only want to play, but mojiazi can find the truth from it. It''s really more popular than people." many people sighed.


    "Mozi is just a little quick witted." the little mage of Yin-Yang family refused to accept..


    Yin Yang Zi shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "since ancient times, many great deeds have something to do with luck, and Mohist Zi is a person with atmospheric luck. Naturally, he doesn''t lack luck. It seems that God is also on the side of Mohist Zi."


    Yin Yang family is a connoisseur who plays yundao. Naturally, it can be seen that the yundao of Mohist school is at its zenith. I''m afraid it''s even more difficult for Yin Yang family to plunder the Qi of Mohist school.


    "Dangdang............................."


    At this time, suddenly the bell rang and struck twelve times.


    "It''s time!" the people around the clock said excitedly.


    "No!" Yin and Yang suddenly looked up and looked at the four clocks. Yin and Yang looked at the sun in the south. Now it was exactly three quarters of noon, and the four clocks rang twelve, which was not the order of the twelve hours. What''s more, there was absolutely no hour in the two clocks just now.


    "One minute is 60 seconds, which is the same as 61 Jiazi''s calculation method, but 60 minutes is not enough for an hour. That is to say, mojiazi changed the method of timing." Yin and Yang Zi showed a strange smile. At 12:00, tiangan and dizhi Jiazi chronology is a Chinese tradition for thousands of years, and mojiazi''s unauthorized reform of the method of timing will certainly cause an uproar, This time, the luck of the Mohist school will certainly fluctuate, which may make the yin-yang family find a flaw.


    "The MOH family changed the method of timing."


    With the twelve huge Tianzhu numbers on the four clock around, everyone was in an uproar and more and more began to discuss. They were used to using the method of twelve hour timing, but the Mohist School suddenly changed the time, which made them unacceptable.


    Under the four clocks, almost everyone looked at the twelve numbers above, confused and didn''t know how to calculate the time.


    It''s not just that ordinary people are not used to it. Even the Zu Mingjun who participated in the formulation of the four clocks is very not used to it. Looking at the twelve figures in the sky, he can''t help smiling bitterly and remembering the debate between him and Mohist Zi over the definition of one second.


    If a pendulum clock swings back and forth as one second, but in that case, the time of an hour is exactly 7200 seconds, and the circle is exactly 360 degrees, which can not be divided and measured at all.


    Zu Mingjun once proposed to define the time between two pendulums as one second. In this way, an hour is exactly 3600 seconds. Therefore, Zu Mingjun specially asked the children of Mohism whether they can do it with the existing Mohist technology. It is easy for the children of Mohism to pat their chest.


    However, when they handed the design they thought was perfect to the Mohist family, they were resolutely opposed by Merton. Up to now, Zu Mingjun still remembers Merton''s original words.


    "For ordinary people, it doesn''t matter whether the definition of a second swings once or twice. However, it has a harmful impact on our hundreds of families for thousands of years. When our ancestors rushed to calculate the circumference, they spent their whole life defining the circumference at 3.1415926. For ordinary people, is there a difference between 3.14 and 3.1415926 No, but why did Zu Chongzhi persist in counting, because this is the precise meaning, the tireless pursuit of all 100 schools and the basis for their continuous progress.


    Now we can make the second accurate to one pendulum clock back and forth, but in order to cater to the secular world, we are complacent. We define one second as two pendulum clocks back and forth, and the accuracy is immediately reduced by twice. This is absolutely intolerable, otherwise in the future, our hundred families will be eaten back. " Merton looked grave.


    "But 3600 seconds per hour is the most suitable calculation method for the traditional 12 hours!" Zu Mingjun retorted.


    Merton said decisively: "the significance of the existence of our 100 schools is to lead the secular world, guide and promote the secular progress, rather than change the knowledge of our 100 schools to cater to the secular vision."


    "Then we should not change the method of minute hand calculation." Zu Mingjun said tentatively.


    Merton asked, "can we make the minute hand give up the method of Jia Zi timing and walk 120 times?"


    Zu Mingjun can''t help but, er, that 60 seconds is one minute, 60 minutes is one moment, and one moment is exactly 3600 seconds. It''s 360 degrees with the circle. No one is perfect.


    Merton said slowly: "In fact, you''re right. One hour is 3600 seconds, which is the best choice. Since both minutes and seconds are measured by the method of 61 Jiazi, it''s not appropriate to move either one. Divide the hour into two hours. In this way, twelve hours a day can be divided into 24 hours. In this way, it can be perfectly solved by turning the hour hand for two weeks a day ¡£¡±


    "You have to give up the method of twelve hour timing!"


    Zu Mingjun was surprised and looked at Merton strangely. Merton was going to abandon the innovative timing method. If it was spread, it would cause an uproar.


    Merton sighed: "since there can only be one choice between Jiazi timing and twelve hour timing, it is more convenient to use the algorithm of giving up twelve hour timing and calculate from one to twelve. In this way, it is intuitive and clear, and can echo with the number of self ringing bells. People only need to hear a few bells to know what time it is now."


    "Give up twelve hours and change it to twenty-four hours a day. Will the common people accept it?" Zu Mingjun hesitated.


    Merton spread his hands and said, "didn''t you suggest that an hour must be 3600 seconds?


    Zu Mingjun was stunned. He looked at the bad friend in front of him and exclaimed, "you mean to let me carry this black pot."


    Merton said with a smile, "as a mathematician, you can choose whether accuracy is important or secular habits are important!"


    Zu Mingjun tangled for a long time, and finally reluctantly bowed his head. As a descendant of the ancestral family, he finally embarked on the old road of his ancestors, because in the world of mathematics, accuracy is greater than everything.


    "Master is right!" Wu Meiniang''s firm voice came from her ear, which woke Zu Mingjun from his memory.


    "Master is right!" Wu Meiniang said firmly again. Since Merton led the Mohist school, he has never made mistakes. This time, the reform can certainly be carried out.


    "I hope so!" Zu Mingjun said helplessly. Anyway, he had already carried the black pot on his back. Now he can only go by believing in the Mohist school.

 Chapter 1264

    "I also believe in mohou!"


    A young voice suddenly came from zumingjun. It was Li Zhi, king of Jin.


    The Mohist school built the event with four clocks. How could he not come to see the excitement, let alone his credit for swinging for an hour.


    "What''s the matter with you?" Wu Meiniang glanced at Li Zhi and ignored Li Zhi''s hospitality. With her information, the seething swing love events in Chang''an city are estimated to be driven by Li Zhi.


    "Of course it''s my business!" Li zhiang said first. He was about to get close to the relationship, but he noticed that Wu Meiniang''s warning eyes suddenly changed.


    "Even as an ordinary person, I also need to accurately time, replace time with numbers and bells, which is simple, clear and easy to remember. As long as it is popularized, it will greatly facilitate the life of the people."


    "I hope so!" sighed Zu Mingjun. As a pulse of mathematics, he is very sensitive to numbers. Naturally, he knows the time represented by each point, but for most ordinary people, they can only listen to fate.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What do you think of time?"


    Under the clock on all sides, the onlookers of Chang''an City talked one after another. The daily 12 hour timing method has been used for thousands of years. Suddenly, they used a group of strange numbers to replace time. They couldn''t understand it.


    "It''s not simple. An hour is exactly two hours, twelve hours during the day, twelve hours at night, midnight from 11:00 at night to 1:00 in the morning, and so on. It doesn''t take much effort." a wise man saw the design of the four clocks at a glance.


    "It seems accurate to use numbers to represent time, but it''s not. One day, two time numbers are the same, so it''s easy to be confused. It''s a vain name for the Mo family to make such a mistake." the Confucian frowned.


    "Pick a bone in an egg! An hour is two hours. Twelve o''clock in the day is just noon, and twelve o''clock at night is midnight. How can it be confused? Moreover, it''s really impossible. You can also use the 24-hour system. One o''clock in the afternoon is called thirteen o''clock, and twelve o''clock at night is called twenty-four o''clock, so it won''t be confused at all." a merchant argued, They are also familiar with numbers, and the main activity time is during the day, which is the most acceptable digital time.


    The Confucian student snorted coldly, "wait and see. If Mo Jiazi arbitrarily changes the method of twelve hour timing, he is doomed to failure. Not only does the people refuse to accept it, but even the chaotang will not allow Mo Jiazi to misbehave."


    The views of Confucian scholars do not represent his personal views, but the views of many scholars. They have been used to the method of twelve hour timing and hate the behavior of Mo Jiazi in reforming time.


    For a while, the people questioned the four bells constantly, and some radical Guozijian students threatened to write to the court to impeach mojiazi''s misdeeds.


    The face of Zu Mingjun standing in the Mohist mechanism city was black. The people under the city kept questioning. His black pot was getting heavier and heavier. Maybe he should turn it over this time.


    "Great, master. The Mohist school really caused public anger." the little mage of the yin-yang family looked at the excited Chang''an people with a look of schadenfreude.


    Yin and Yang Zi''s expression did not fluctuate at all, but said faintly: "you thought that the MOH family would not expect it. Haven''t you heard that the person at the time of the reform is the ancestor of mathematics? The MOH family is only responsible for making four clocks and designing machines."


    "Uh, uh!"


    The little mage of the yin-yang family suddenly solidified his face and said angrily, "the Mohist is really cunning. The clock on all sides is the must kill skill for the Mohist to study and defeat Confucianism and Taoism. Without his nod, how dare Zu Mingjun change the time without authorization."


    "Of course, if Mozi didn''t approve of this time method, Zu Mingjun couldn''t use the 24-hour timing method. Since Mozi agreed, you now think this timing method will fail. You know that Mozi has never failed." Yin and Yang said faintly.


    The little mage of yin and Yang family was stunned. If Mohist Zi dared to apply the 24-hour timing method here, he must have thought of the current situation, which shows that Mohist Zi agrees with this matter and believes that the 24-hour timing method can be implemented.


    "Short-sighted, how can mohou''s wisdom be guessed." a young man came out of the mechanism city and said wildly.


    "Who is this man? He has the luck of the son of heaven!" Yin and Yang shrunk his eyes and suddenly surprised..


    "Your Royal Highness, your royal highness taught you!"


    Many people recognized that the arrogant young man in front of them was his Highness the king of Jin, and quickly said yes.


    "It''s your Highness the king of Jin!" the eyes of yin and Yang Zi flashed. Li Zhi, king of Jin, is the legitimate son of the emperor. Now Li Tai, king of Wei, has founded 100 families and has actually withdrawn from the struggle for the throne. In addition to Prince Li Chengqian, Li Zhi is the second heir to the throne, although there is no one at present


    "Your Highness, don''t talk nonsense. Master is not afraid of the secular world. Whether the 24-hour timing method is beneficial to the world will be known in the future." a valiant woman then went out of the mechanism city to stop Li Zhi''s wild words.


    Li Zhi said wrongfully, "I just don''t like them to speak ill of mohou."


    Wu Mei Niang looked up at the moving hands of the four clocks on her head and said faintly, "time will prove everything. More arguments are just a waste of words."


    "The four clocks show time. The disciples of the Mohist school use the four clocks as a metaphor for the ''time'' in the world, and this woman''s talent is indeed extraordinary." Yin and Yang praised her in her heart. Looking back and looking back at her ignorant disciples, she was very different. She couldn''t help looking embarrassed. If the Mohist family can develop smoothly, I''m afraid her luck will be even more terrible.


    "No! This woman''s divination is strange. A woman has the Qi of the son of heaven." Yin and Yang suddenly turned his head and stared at Wu Meiniang.


    The little mage of the Yangyang family answered, "master, Wu Meiniang was originally after the royal family of the previous dynasty, and when she was born, Yuan Tiangang once divined for her, saying that her life was extremely expensive. Wu Meiniang was valued by the Mohist school as land first, and then favored by the king of Jin. Wouldn''t it be a glorious and rich life to become the princess of Jin in the future."


    "Yuan Tiangang really has some skills. If he is still alive, I''m afraid he should be more careful about his plan as a teacher." Yin-Yang Zi snorted coldly. In his heart, Wu Meiniang''s possession of the Qi of the son of heaven was temporarily put down.


    "Great victory on the grassland! The Tang army destroyed Xue yantuo!"


    Suddenly, a messenger of victory galloped on his horse, passing the good news of the great victory in the grassland.


    "Long live Datang!"


    All the people cheered, and soon more news came.


    "The firearm army took personal risks, only 3000 troops and horses resisted 200000 Xue yantuo, cut 5000 in the array and captured tens of thousands." the firearm army was the most brilliant in the whole North attack on Xue yantuo.


    "The firearm army is worthy of being the most powerful in the world. It is said that at that time, when firearms and weapons came out everywhere, Xue yantuo''s people turned upside down and blood flowed into a river."


    "That''s right! The firearm army used gunpowder in Gaochang. It broke the city with one blow. Xue yantuo''s cavalry is just flesh and blood. How can they resist gunpowder weapons?"


    "Rao is so. This war is also extremely dangerous. It is said that the firearm army has even used the weapons used by Mohist Zi to reverse Yin and Yang in Tuyuhun."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Chang''an people inquired about specious news and kept adding oil and wrong gossip.


    "Reverse Yin and Yang." Yin and Yang Zi, who has been listening, suddenly stood up and was stunned.


    "What''s the matter, master?" the little mage said dumbly.


    The yin-yang son was like a demon stunned. He murmured: "the sun is Yang, the Taiyin is Yin, life is Yang, death is Yin, day is Yang, night is Yin, male is Yang, female is Yin............."


    The little mage looked at the master puzzled. These theories of yin and yang are not only Yin and Yang families, but even ordinary children may know them.


    "For a long time, the yin-yang school has been unable to find the shortcomings of the Mohist school, but I didn''t think it was because the Mohist family was so cunning and reversed the yin-yang. No wonder the yin-yang school had no clue all the time. It turned out that we were in the wrong direction." the yin-yang son awakened the Tao as if he were enlightened.


    "It''s impossible to reverse Yin and Yang, unless it''s a fairy. It''s just a gunpowder weapon for lighting." the little mage disagreed.


    "No! Mojiazi did it. Although it was only one second, it was enough to disturb the secret of heaven." Yin and Yang shook his head and said.


    "In the observation of the yin-yang school, the Mohist school originally fell into darkness and was destined to die out. The Mohist School led the Mohist school to die and live, making the Mohist School brilliant. This is the first time that the Mohist School reversed yin-yang.


    "In the battle of Tuyuhun, the Mohists peeped through the sky dog eating the sun. In the darkness, the Mohists illuminated the whole battlefield with gunpowder weapons, reversed the war situation and reversed Yin and Yang again."


    The little master of yin and Yang family frowned and looked dignified.


    "However, it is even more amazing that the Mohist family reversed Yin and Yang for the third time. The world preached men rather than women, but the Mohist family did the opposite. They accepted a female disciple as their successor. The most amazing thing is that Wu Meiniang, as a daughter, is an imperial destiny. Originally, it was the most peculiar destiny in the world. Originally, Wu Meiniang''s fate was doomed to a rough life, but the Mohist family reversed Yin Yang, let Wu Meiniang run the Mohist school on his behalf, and let a daughter set up a man''s career. The Mohist School''s attainments in the theory of yin and Yang really shocked the old Taoist school. "Yin and Yang exclaimed.


    "This is the method of Mohist school!" the little mage of yin and Yang family immediately stood up and was thrilled.


    "What''s more, the Mo family''s intention to reform time is not pure. For a long time, the 12 hour timing method has clear day and night, while the 24-hour timing method can be replaced by numbers during the day and night. Twelve o''clock is not only the moment of the sun, but also the moment of the Yin." Yin and Yang exclaimed.


    "I don''t know what the Mohist School''s intention is to misinterpret the theory of our yin-yang family. Isn''t this ruining the Qi of our yin-yang family?" the little mage of the yin-yang family said angrily.


    "What''s your intention? Naturally, it''s to hide the shortcomings of Mohist school. I''ve always been a teacher and have no clue about the way to break the situation. Now I can''t help but see the light after I see Mohist''s means to reverse Yin and Yang." Yin and Yang proudly said.


    "Shifu really found the flaw of Mohism." the little mage was surprised.


    "Yes, all along, we have been looking for the son of luck who can break the game. We all stare at the man. Naturally, there is no result, but who can think that mojiazi has reversed Yin and Yang." Yin and Yang have deep eyes and stare at the slowly disappearing shadow.


    "Wu Meiniang, the son of a woman''s luck, is the one who breaks the game." the little mage exclaimed.


    Yin and Yang nodded and said, "Wu Meiniang has a strange life style. She was pursued by the imperial son of the current Dynasty after the royal family of the previous dynasty. She herself was the son of the money family and accepted as a descendant by the son of the Mohist family. She holds the gratitude and resentment of the two dynasties and holds the rise and fall of the two families. Is such a person still the son of luck we are looking for?"


    "Master is wise!" the little mage admires.


    Yin and Yang Zi laughed proudly and said, "Wu Meiniang is destined to be entangled with the fortune of the royal family. If you want to break the situation, you can only break through from this woman. Mojiazi! Mojiazi! It''s useless for you to try your best to reverse Yin and Yang and protect your disciples. Finally, you are peeped by the Yin and Yang family."


    The little mage of yin and Yang family was shocked. He could not imagine that a person who could cause the shock of hundreds of families and chaotang was a weak woman.


    "Your Royal Highness the king of Jin is in love with the big senior sister of the Mohist school. From the disciple''s point of view, I''m afraid this true love is not so pure!" the little master of the yin-yang family sneered.


    "If there is no ambition, it''s just that if there is a king of Jin who has ambition, it''s a flaw that can be used." an ambitious Prince is loved by the Yin and Yang family. After all, this is the source of unrest.


    It was Wu Meiniang who found the flaw of the Mohist school. Through Wu Meiniang''s reverse push, the originally chaotic luck was immediately organized and various means of breaking the situation were handy.


    "Mohist, the contest between yin and Yang and Mohist has just begun." Yin and Yang smiled proudly.

 Chapter 1265

    "Mei Niang!"


    At the same time, Wu Meiniang is also affecting another person''s mind, that is Li Zhi, king of Jin.


    Li Zhi thought of Wu Meiniang''s cold and insipid attitude towards herself, and couldn''t help worrying. He was the emperor''s legitimate son of the Tang Dynasty, and his position was high. According to common sense, which woman he liked was not easy to catch, but Wu Meiniang despised him.


    "Somebody," Li Zhi shouted irritably.


    "Please tell me, Lord!" a guard of the palace hurried in.


    "How''s everything I told you to do?" Li Zhi asked.


    The bodyguard of the Palace said proudly, "back to the Lord, I''ve spread the swing love between the Lord and Miss Wu all over Chang''an city. Everyone was amazed. The Lord''s love story is comparable to the love between Marquis Mo and Princess Changle on the lantern night."


    "But why does Meiniang still ignore the king." Li Zhi walked up and down irritably. If an ordinary woman had such an affair, I''m afraid she would have pushed the boat along with the trend and half pushed it. Because this would have a bad reputation. I''m afraid she''ll never marry a good family again. This is also a common means used by many dandies.


    "Mohist women are always open. I''m afraid they don''t care about fame and integrity like ordinary women." the guard of the Royal Palace bowed his head and said helplessly. Mohist women rely on the Mohist village as the backstage and have always been aggressive in Chang''an city. In just a few years, there have been many marriages of Heli remarriage. They are not as weak as ordinary women in love, let alone Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of Mohist and the leader of Mohist women. Naturally, she will not give in because of this means.


    "Meiniang! Now mohou is happy to see its success, and sister Changle doesn''t object. Ben Wang is also sincere, but what do you think?" Li Zhi said painfully.


    "Tell your Highness the king of Wei that someone held the token of his Highness the king of Jin and claimed to come from the grassland." suddenly a servant hurried to report.


    "From the grassland." Li Zhi''s eyes flashed. Now he has made friends with many Turkic youth. Now the grassland has won a great victory, and the Turkic status is becoming more and more important, which should not be underestimated.


    "Please come in!" Li Zhi nodded.


    "Yes!" the servant hurried away. Soon, a weak figure appeared in front of Li Zhi.


    "Hegan Chengji! What''s the matter with you?" Li Zhi said with a surprised look on his face. He saw that Hegan Chengji in front of him was covered with bandages, and there were few good places.


    He Gan Chengji smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "it''s inevitable to be injured when marching in war. It''s lucky that he will be able to get back his life. He will rush to Chang''an city with his seriously injured body. Nominally, in order to cure the disease, he is actually making a contribution to his Royal Highness the king of Jin."


    "Credit!" Li Zhi''s eyes lit up. As the prince, he didn''t make any contribution. If he could make credit in front of his father, wouldn''t he be more popular with his father.


    Hegan Chengji smiled in his heart. He knew that Li Zhi, who was not deeply involved in the world, could not refuse the cards in his hand. In fact, it was more than Yin and Yang. Seeing Li Zhi''s delicate situation, Hegan Chengji finally set his goal on Li Zhi after hard thinking.


    "What will be prosecuted at the end is the crime of sun Chong, the commander of the firearm army, who rashly advances in greed for merit, abandons the army and flees, and buys and sells military merit." Hegan Chengji surprised humanity.


    "What? Chang sun Chong! Don''t talk nonsense." Li Zhi was startled. Chang sun Chong''s status was noble. Now he even committed such a felony, which must have shocked the whole dynasty.


    "The end general is willing to guarantee his life." he ganchengji immediately said what happened on the grassland.


    "This Chang sun Chong is really......" Li Zhi was speechless and said Chang sun Chong was bold! He even abandoned the army and fled. He said he was as timid as a mouse. It was wonderful that he dared to buy and sell military skills.


    "The end general is willing to use this secret to be loyal to his Royal Highness the king of Jin, and will follow his horse in the future." Hegan Chengji went down on one knee and said solemnly.


    Li Zhi was so happy that he thought he was showing his hegemonic spirit that he sat in the king''s house of Jin and had a fierce general coming to allegiance. You know, he Gan Chengji, who controls 3000 elite heavy armor cavalry, is a sharp weapon.


    "That''s true!" Li Zhi said with a straight face and an old Cheng.


    "If there is any violation, I will be dismembered and die with thousands of arrows through my heart." Hegan Chengji vowed with the highest etiquette of Turks.


    Li Zhi stared at Hegan Chengji quietly, and Hegan Chengji had a loyal face and firm eyes.


    "What if I let you take this credit to take refuge in the prince''s brother?" Li Zhi said suddenly and calmly.


    He Gan Chengji said with a surprised face, "the last general is only loyal to his Highness the king of Jin. He has no other heart."


    "I know you are loyal to the king, so I let you take refuge in the east palace. With this credit, you can stand firm in the east palace." Li Zhi said faintly.


    "Ah!" Hegan Chengji was surprised and couldn''t believe looking at Li Zhi. Li Zhi even asked him to be a spy in the east palace. In his heart, Li Zhi is just a young prince who has not been deeply involved in the world. Now he shows his deep plan. Although the young tiger is small, it can eat people.


    "What does your highness king of Jin ask Mo Jiang to do? What will Mo do?" he ganchengji lowered his head and said.


    Li Zhi then smiled with satisfaction and murmured, "brother Prince, whether you listen to the opinions of the courtiers or the mohou, you can easily beat Xue yantuo, but you are timid and take a compromise strategy, which eventually led to heavy losses for the firearm army. Now the crime of Chang sun Chong has been exposed. Are you blowing up your own shame or covering up for Chang sun Chong again and again?"


    The firearm army is the first and most important army in the Tang Dynasty. Now it has suffered heavy losses and nearly destroyed the regiment. Anyway, Li Chengqian can''t escape the relationship. If Li Chengqian tries to cover up his fault and protect Chang sun Chong, he doesn''t mind adding fuel to the fire.


    At this moment, Li Zhi''s heart no longer had any feelings for men and women, but was full of plans.


    "What, Chang sun Chong is so stupid!" in the East Palace, Li Chengqian looked at Hegan Chengji kneeling in front of him. He couldn''t help looking embarrassed. He never thought that Chang sun Chong, who claims to be the elite of the young generation in Chang''an City, should have made such low-level mistakes one after another.


    You should know that buying and selling military merit is a felony, not to mention recklessly advancing in pursuit of merit and abandoning the army. Which one is a felony of beheading in the army, but Chang sun Chong has committed one after another.


    "Who else knows about this?" Li Chengqian asked with a frown.


    Hegan Chengji lowered his head and said, "only the last general and Khan know on the grassland. Only the crown prince and his highness know in the Tang Dynasty. The last general knows that this matter is very important to the crown prince. He can''t bear to keep the crown prince in the dark. He has come to tell you the details."


    Li Chengqian looked at he ganchengji with satisfaction and praised him: "you did a good job. Our palace will not forget your credit. In the future, we will transfer you from the grassland to work for our palace."


    Li Chengqian naturally knew that the purpose of Hegan Chengji''s whistle blowing was to invite credit, but as a superior, he did not dislike such behavior, and he also took a fancy to the power of Hegan Chengji''s 3000 heavy armor cavalry.


    "Thank you, your highness!" Hegan Chengji said with a look of ecstasy. He didn''t expect that things were going so smoothly. He not only entered Chang''an City, but also successfully had disputes with the two princes. As long as he lurked patiently, he had plenty of opportunities to provoke civil strife in Datang.

 Chapter 1266

    "My brother-in-law and cousin! You have a problem for the palace." Li Chengqian said irritably.


    After learning the evidence of Chang sun Chong''s crime, Li Chengqian was in a dilemma. On relatives, Chang sun Chong was both his cousin and his brother-in-law. If he handled it impartially, he could not explain to his uncle, mother and sister. On relations, the Chang Sun family was the first family in Chang''an City and the most staunch supporter of the east palace. If he dealt with Chang sun Chong severely, I''m afraid his followers would be cold.


    What annoyed him even more was that the compromise plan put forward by Chang sun Chong, who was on paper, had such a big mistake. Whether Datang sent troops directly or supported Turks to fight a proxy war, Datang would be invincible. However, he believed in Chang sun Chong, which led to heavy losses for the firearm army.


    According to the information of Hegan Chengji, the firearm army killed at least 1000 people, injured 500, and almost half of the casualties. The firearm army is now the face of Datang. It almost slapped Datang in the face, which made him lose face as a decision-maker. Once his father returned, he may not escape responsibility.


    "Don''t panic, your highness. Weichen has a plan that can certainly solve your Highness''s troubles." Hegan Chengji suddenly said in a loud voice.


    "Speak quickly," said Li Chengqian with joy.


    "The reason why Chang sun Chong is so arrogant is that he relies on the power of the Chang Sun family. Now his Highness the prince is in a dilemma. It''s better to leave the problem to the Chang Sun family. Once Chang sun learns about it, he will deal with it properly by his means. By the way, he can cover up his Highness''s mistakes in decision-making. Isn''t it the best of both worlds and everyone is happy." He ganchengji suggested.


    Li Chengqian could not help but move in his heart, which is a good note. Once changsun Wuji takes the initiative, he can certainly do it properly with his plan, and can show his uncle good luck. You know, changsun Wuji is the most important supporter of Li Chengqian as the prince.


    "Your Highness, don''t!" suddenly a sharp voice came and stopped Li Chengqian.


    Hegan Chengji nodded and saw Li Chengqian walking out from behind. Although he was a servant, he had a delicate face and extraordinary bearing.


    "Satisfied, why?" Li Chengqian didn''t understand.


    "Your Highness, do you think the eldest grandson will be convicted of a felony if he is greedy and rash?" the servant named satisfactory asked.


    Li Chengqian pondered for a moment, shook his head, and scolded Chang sun Chong for his greedy work and rash progress. He wouldn''t hurt his muscles and bones at all.


    "What if he abandoned his army and fled?" gratified asked again.


    "Take the post of general of the firearm army at most."


    Li Chengqian sighed. Chang sun Chong''s desertion was nominally to ask for help. Coupled with Chang sun Wuji''s power, he could get through this level by pleading a little.


    "What if you add buying and selling military merit?" gratified asked again.


    Li Chengqian sighed, "it''s the best ending to go to jail without committing a crime."


    Gratified, he asked, "the reason why Chang sun Chong came to such an end is to be smart and make mistakes again and again. With the example of Chang sun Chong, why should his royal highness make mistakes again and again?"


    "Er, ER!" Li Chengqian suddenly realized that he was not in the situation where Chang sun Chong made the first mistake. Now he made the most mistakes in decision-making and won a great victory on the grassland. This mistake is almost irrelevant. However, if he chose to protect Chang sun Chong and burst out one day, he may be guilty of the same crime as Chang sun Chong.


    "Your Highness is the prince, but there is something wrong, but you can''t be guilty. Once your highness conceals this matter, it is the crime of shielding. You know, the firearm army used to be under Marquis Mo, and your highness thinks it will be flawless to hide the heavy losses of the firearm Army caused by Chang sun Chong." he advised with satisfaction.


    "But the palace didn''t inform my uncle and watched my cousin get guilty, but I would offend my uncle to death." Li Chengqian sighed.


    With a satisfied face, he said firmly: "the emperor is ruthless! His Highness the crown prince is a prince. Now he is in charge of supervising the country and exercising monarchical power on his behalf. Imagine, if your majesty learned about this, would he miss the military law because of his family affection!"


    Li Chengqian shook his head and rushed to Chang sun. Such a figure will be a hidden danger in the army. This time, the grassland war will turn the tide, and the next time, it may lead to the failure of a war.


    Just like the Mohist ballad when he was making horseshoes, one Martin was missing and one country died. Chang sun Chong was not only missing one Martin, but also a horseshoe!


    "And to say the least, even if your majesty will forgive Chang sun Chong, your highness can''t do so, because your highness is a prince. You can''t make mistakes before your highness ascends the great treasure. Does your highness choose to offend Chang sun or disappoint your majesty?" his words were fierce and hit the point.


    "Contentment is worthy of the left and right arms of the palace," said Li Chengqian, taking a deep breath. Contentment is the servant of his east palace and his confidant. In this grassland war, Li Chengqian went to Mo mansion to ask for advice. Before that, Li Chengqian would discuss with contentment about many things that were inconvenient for him to discuss with ministers, and contentment would always put forward pertinent suggestions, The same is true this time. If he is not satisfied with the reminder, he will make a big mistake.


    What he said is true. Chang sun Chong is just his cousin. Of course, he will not risk his position as a prince for Chang sun Chong. Now he only needs to satisfy you, that is, the father and the emperor, not his uncle.


    A smile appeared on his satisfied face and said, "besides, the prince doesn''t need to offend the dead eldest sun. Now the grassland army returns triumphantly. It''s time for your majesty to return from Mount Tai. At that time, the prince just needs to find an imperial historian to break through the matter, and naturally he will get out of it."


    Li Chengqian nodded slightly, turned to Hegan Chengji and said, "during this time, you should stay in the East Palace and not go out."


    Li Chengqian did things carefully. First, he ganchengji was controlled in the East Palace, so he was in the initiative.


    "I will obey!"


    Hegan Chengji''s low head and uncertain face were the idea that he and Li Zhi came up with to dig a trap for Li Chengqian, but he didn''t expect to be seen through by satisfaction. He wants to stir up the wind and rain in the East Palace in the future. Satisfaction will be his biggest obstacle.


    "However, your highness, you think of this layer, but you don''t think of the second layer. Once you give up changsun Chong, it means you have offended the changsun family. Once the changsun family turns to support King Li Zhi of Jin, the internal struggle of Datang will begin." he ganchengji is happy in his heart.


    Once the Tang Dynasty fights, it will fall into chaos. At that time, the opportunity for Turkic revival will come. He will not hesitate to sacrifice himself for Turkic revival.

 Chapter 1267

    "Dada dada............."


    On the official road near Chang''an City, a huge and luxurious motorcade is moving forward at top speed.


    On the carriage, Li Shimin''s face was heavy. He had a bad time in Taishan''s meditation. When he first arrived at Taishan, he ordered his son Li Tai to re measure the height of Taishan. It can be imagined that Taishan is not only not high, but also very low, lower than many mountains. It''s wishful thinking to let heaven hear it.


    However, he still didn''t give up. He held a grand Fengchan in Mount Tai and stood in the night sky in the cold wind. He still didn''t get a response from heaven, so he had to go down Mount Tai disheartened.


    As soon as Li Shimin went down Mount Tai, he received the news that Xue yantuo had sent troops and began to rush back.


    "Don''t worry, the emperor. The journey from Chang''an city to Mount Tai has been many days. According to the calculation of time, the battle will be over long ago." empress Chang sun on the side said that she coughed a few times.


    "Guanyin maidservant, are you better? It''s cold at night on Mount Tai. You still have to stay up with me." Li Shimin patted the empress changsun on the back for her good luck.


    The empress Chang sun shook her head and said, "it doesn''t matter. There''s green dragon real medicine. This little wind cold doesn''t matter."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help feeling distressed for a while. If such a cold had been enough to kill empress changsun in the past, although there are green dragon real medicine now, I''m afraid it would be hard for Empress changsun for a long time with her weak constitution.


    "The front is Chang''an city. When you get back, I''ll arrange the doctor of Mo hospital to examine you comprehensively." Li Shimin said softly.


    Li Shimin secretly regretted that he had listened to Merton''s suggestion and regarded the Taishan Zen worship as a cruise. However, he didn''t give up. He wanted to get a response from heaven, but he got nothing in the end and implicated empress Chang sun.


    The motorcade sped all the way towards Chang''an city. When it reached Chang''an City, night had fallen.


    "See father and queen mother!"


    "See the emperor and queen."


    Outside the east gate of Chang''an City, Li Chengqian, who got the news, had already led all civil and military officials to wait outside the east gate.


    Li Shimin got up and got out of the car. He was relieved to see the important officials of the Manchu Dynasty. It seemed that there had been no mistakes.


    "Father emperor, mother queen!" Li Zhi, who had been separated from them for a long time, threw himself into the arms of empress Chang sun and said fondly.


    "Please also allow your son and his courtiers to ride with you, and let your child report the government affairs to you." Li Chengqian asked for instructions.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "don''t worry. It''s dark now. All officials should rest long ago. Let all officials go home and prepare for the early morning tomorrow.


    The reason why he left for more than a month is to rest assured of the important officials in the court. If there is something important, it has already been spread. Since there is no important matter, it is better to deal with it tomorrow morning.


    "Yes! Yes, son!" Li Chengqian nodded.


    Li Shimin turned around and took empress Chang sun and Li Zhi to the carriage. When Li Chengqian saw this scene, he couldn''t help sighing. Since he was made Prince, everything he said and did required to comply with etiquette. He had no chance to enjoy this family happiness. On the contrary, Li Zhi was much loved.


    On the carriage, Li Shimin and his wife and Li Zhi enjoyed the happiness of their family. For this young son, the eldest grandson queen can be said to love him very much. They saw that they were old enough to start a family, but they had no idea at all.


    "Father, Queen Mother, you are far away in Mount Tai, but you don''t know that during this time, the son minister and mohou have done a great thing to benefit the country and the people." Li Zhi showed off.


    "Mojiazi!" Li Shimin gave Li Zhi a suspicious look. You know, the mojiazi didn''t make him happy every time. Although the result was still satisfactory, the process was extremely tortuous,


    In short, it''s not going well for the Mexican family!


    "Father and mother, please look up!" Li Zhi pointed to the bright four clocks in the distance. The clock faces of the four clocks were made of glass, which was very brilliant under the light.


    "It''s good for the country and the people to hang a few numbers from a high place. Now who in Chang''an city doesn''t know the number of Tianzhu from one to twelve." Li Shimin frowned.


    Li Zhi said with a smile, "father, I don''t know. These twelve numbers represent time. Now it''s almost nine o''clock, that is to say, it''s almost Hai Shi."


    "What''s strange about this? Now it''s dark for a long time, and everyone knows it''s almost the time of the sea." empress changsun didn''t understand.


    Li Zhi said as if offering a treasure: "the queen mother knows at a glance, May 4th, 3221."


    "Dangdang, Dangdang, Dangdang."


    With the end of Li Zhi''s countdown, nine loud bells rang in the four clocks, which spread all over Chang''an city.


    "It''s nine o''clock. Now the people of Chang''an city know it''s time to go to bed." Li Zhi explained proudly.


    "It''s so accurate!" the eldest Sun Queen was surprised.


    "Yes, this is when the child was playing the swing at sister Changle''s house. Her brother-in-law saw the child playing the swing and suddenly realized the pendulum effect." Li Zhi said proudly, deleting his pursuit of Wu Meiniang and exaggerating his legendary experience of playing the swing and pendulum effect.


    "Ah! Our young slaves can also achieve great things." empress Chang Sun said with a surprised look on her face. How can a mother be unhappy to see her child participate in such a great event.


    "What''s good? Ring the bell on your head in the middle of the night. You can sleep well!" Li Shimin said angrily.


    Li Zhi laughed and said, "my father didn''t know. The clock didn''t ring after nine o''clock. It didn''t ring until seven o''clock the next day, that is, Chenshi. It didn''t affect people''s sleep at all."


    "He''s considerate. No, I go to court at Mao hour. Why did Merton let the morning bell ring at Chen hour? That''s not a delay." Li Shimin frowned.


    Li Zhi said with a smile: "as for this brother-in-law, he once said that the imperial court goes to the court at Mao. Even if the bell rings at Mao, it will be too late to rush to the palace. Moreover, it will delay the children''s sleep. It''s better to set it at seven o''clock."


    "If you delay a child''s sleep, you shouldn''t delay him to sleep. Send orders and let Merton join the morning Dynasty tomorrow!" Li Shimin said bitterly. Merton hasn''t been to the morning Dynasty several times, and he is diligent. He has to get up and work hard every morning. How can he easily let go of the Merton family.


    "In any case, the people all over the world know time, which is also a matter of benefiting the country and the people." empress changsun said round the court, which is also due to her son after all.


    "Benefit the country and the people? Hum! There are both advantages and disadvantages. If you abandon the twelve hour timing method, I''m afraid the court will cause disputes again." Li Shimin snorted coldly. Not surprisingly, the Mo family is not doing well. It can continue the twelve hour timing method, but he abandoned it. He doesn''t know whether it is to add to the snake or the finishing touch.


    Li Shimin objected, but he was filled with emotion. This time, Mount Tai''s Zen worship made him dull. Where did the four clocks in front of him give him a fresh and interesting feeling.


    Under the heavy guard of the bodyguard, the huge motorcade slowly went to the palace. In the dark window at the side of the street, yin and Yang stood with their hands off, quietly watching the motorcade pass slowly.


    "When the emperor is in charge, the ghosts and monsters in Chang''an city are silent. The Qi of Chang''an city is stagnant. However, the yin-yang family has found the flaw of the Qi of the Tang Dynasty. From now on, Chang''an city will be the stage for the yin-yang family."


    Under the night sky, yin and Yang stand against the wind and look down on Chang''an city.

 Chapter 1268

    Yin and Yang watched Li Shimin''s motorcade leave, walked quietly on the street, ignored the curfew in Chang''an City, went straight to a mansion and entered it without obstruction.


    "The Yin and Yang family is visiting late at night. I don''t know what''s important." in the secret room, Wu yuanshuang stared warily at the Taoist priest with a childlike face and Hefa in front of him.


    You know, according to the records of the Ziqian family, once the yin-yang family was born, there were not many good things. Now if you rashly find the Ziqian family, how can you not let Wu yuanshuang be vigilant.


    "Don''t worry, the yin-yang family and the Ziqian family belong to the hidden vein. They have always cooperated with each other. I came here to offer a good fortune to the Ziqian family." Yin-Yang Zilang said.


    "A good fortune?" Wu yuanshuang looked at Yinyang Zi suspiciously. He didn''t believe that Yinyang Zi was so kind.


    Yin and Yang opened the door and said, "have you ever heard of the seething swing love story in Chang''an City?"


    "Naturally, I heard that who would have thought that an abandoned daughter of the government was favored by his Highness the king of Jin? This smelly girl is really a crow flying on the branches and wants to be a Phoenix." Wu yuanshuang said angrily. He didn''t expect that Wu Meiniang met the Mexican family first and then was favored by the king of Jin. He knew that she would stay in the Wu government. Wouldn''t he also become a royal family member of the current dynasty, The martial arts family will prosper soon.


    "This is exactly what the yin-yang family wants to send to childe Wu, and give the Zi Qian family a way to go to his Highness the king of Jin." Yin-Yang answered.


    Wu yuanshuang was shocked when he heard the speech. He arched his hands and asked Yin and Yang Zi for advice. "Please also ask the old fairy to teach me."


    Ziqian''s family had bad luck recently. Mo magazine first reported Ziqian''s greed, which made many people avoid Ziqian''s family like snakes and scorpions. Later, there were post stations and Mojia village banks that kept expanding, encroaching on Ziqian''s market. Ziqian''s family was struggling and urgently needed to climb the royal family. The crown prince could not give up the post station, and his Highness the king of Jin was the best choice.


    "The swing love story that you know is widely spread in Chang''an city is spread by his Highness the king of Jin. In fact, Wu Meiniang doesn''t like Li Zhi, the king of Jin. At this time, if you come to help his Highness the king of Jin, it won''t be right in the arms of his Highness the king of Jin."


    "What''s more? But Wu Meiniang has defected from the Wu mansion. She doesn''t care about my brother at all because she is the first disciple of the Mohist school. I''m afraid it would be counterproductive if I tried to persuade her." Wu yuanshuang said with some fear. Now Wu Meiniang is no longer the weak little girl in those days, but the famous senior sister of the Mohist school, Wu Yuanqing was defeated by the Revenge of the Mohist school. He didn''t want to repeat it.


    "The so-called eldest brother is like a father. Now that brother Wu has died early, the marriage of the children of the Wu family will naturally fall on you. Isn''t it right for you to decide to marry him to his Highness the king of Jin?" Yin and Yang proposed.


    Wu yuanshuang''s eyes brightened, then he smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "the old immortal doesn''t know. His Highness the king of Jin is friendly with the Mohist family. How can he not know Meiniang''s life experience? My elder brother, like my father, can''t compare with the Mohist family. I''m afraid it will be counterproductive."


    Wu yuanshuang naturally knows that if he rashly decides Wu Meiniang''s marriage, he will not only please his Highness the king of Jin, but also offend the Mohist family. Wu yuanshuang is the Mohist family that he is most reluctant to provoke now.


    "An elder brother like a father may not be enough. What if Wu Meiniang''s biological mother agrees to the marriage?" Yin and Yang Zi said confidently.


    "You mean the last evils of the former dynasty!" Wu yuanshuang''s eyes brightened. In fact, Wu yuanshuang risked the world''s condemnation to drive Yang and Wu Meiniang out of Yingguo''s government. In addition to competing for Yingguo, another reason is that Yang''s identity. After the Wu family had the royal family of the former dynasty, Wu Meiniang is the blood of the former dynasty, which makes these stains used by people with intentions, The Wu family has always been marginalized and slowly squeezed out of the core of the Tang Dynasty. For this reason, the Wu brothers thought it was the fault of the Yang family, so they took the opportunity to drive the Yang family and the three sisters out of the family and expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the Tang Dynasty.


    "But she hates the Wu family, and she won''t join hands with the Wu family." Wu yuanshuang shook his head.


    "She hates the Wu family, but she is also a mother. Wu Meiniang is nearly 20 years old. Ordinary women have been full of children for a long time. How can Yang not worry about his daughter''s engagement, let alone the good match of his Highness the king of Jin?" Yin and Yang smiled.


    Wu yuanshuang couldn''t help thinking about it. Yang, the last evil of the previous dynasty, was very stupid. He only needed a little deception, and most of them would take the bait.


    "Thank you for your advice," Wu yuanshuang said excitedly.


    "Young master Wu is happy too early. It''s only the first step to let Wu Meiniang marry his Highness the king of Jin. Based on the relationship between Wu Meiniang and young master Wu, I''m afraid it''s not enough for the Ziqian family to climb the line of his Highness the king of Jin. If they want to obtain this fortune, how much will it cost the Ziqian family." Yin and Yang pointed out.


    Wu yuanshuang suddenly looked at the yin-yang son and asked, "you mean to follow his father''s example."


    One of LV Buwei''s proudest things is to invest in the strange king of Qin, and finally become the Prime Minister of a country, which pushed the miscellaneous family to the peak. The significance of Yin-Yang Zi made the Ziqian family invest in Li Zhi, king of Jin.


    Yin and Yang nodded: "Mr. Wu''s move is more comprehensive than that of your mother and LV Buwei. Your mother used all her money to support the emperor. In the end, no one in the palace was alienated. LV Buwei also caused no death in the palace. After all, Wu Meiniang is a woman and still needs the support of a relative of the Wu family. At that time, you will not let the Wu family run wild."


    When Wu yuanshuang thought of this possibility, he was excited, but he calmed down and said, "the yin-yang family is so optimistic about his Highness the king of Jin."


    Yin and Yang proudly said, "Your Highness the king of Jin has the Qi of the son of heaven."


    Wu yuanshuang trembled all over. He was an expert in the way of Qi and fortune. However, he was still not reckless, but shook his head and said, "this alone is not enough."


    Yin Yang Zi knew that Wu yuanshuang could not take the bait if he didn''t show his true skills. At that moment, Zheng se said: "Now your majesty is in the prime of spring and autumn, and Prince Li Chengqian has grown up. Few people have been stable in such a crown prince since ancient times. Since King Li Tai of Wei founded a new hundred families, he gave up the throne, and King Li Zhi of Jin has become an alternative to the crown prince. If the crown prince makes a mistake and Li Chengqian repeats the abuse of the crown prince, the most likely person to ascend the throne is king Li Zhi of Jin."


    Wu yuanshuang nodded slightly and agreed with the reasoning, which was almost the same as the intelligence of Ziqian family.


    "However, now that the prince is close to the Mohist school, it has aroused the dissatisfaction of five surnames and seven outlooks. In addition, in the grassland war, the prince''s decision-making is wrong and the position of the prince is unstable. The opportunity for King Li Zhi of Jin has come." Yin and Yang Zi''s face is calm and serious. As a yin and Yang family, he has his own secret channel, and even got the inside story of the grassland war in advance.


    "Is there such a thing?" Wu yuanshuang moved in his heart. This time, the intelligence of the son Qian family has fallen behind, and he didn''t know such a big thing.


    "Qian family, the intelligence son of yin and Yang family, can rest assured. Besides, even if King Li Zhi of Jin is a prince of peace and prosperity, you won''t suffer!" Yin and Yang said faintly.


    Wu yuanshuang nodded slightly. One was the younger sister who drove out. In exchange for climbing the path of the king of Jin, it was also a cost-effective business.


    "Meiniang! My good sister, don''t blame my brother for making his own decisions. It''s also for your own good!" Wu yuanshuang said secretly in his heart.

 Chapter 1269

    The next morning! Li Shimin sits high in the Dragon chair, and his highness gathers hundreds of officials.


    There was silence in the Tai Chi hall. There was only the rustling sound of reading. At the end of the hundred officials, Merton reluctantly yawned. He was foolproof. Li Shimin grabbed the handle because he set the early morning alarm clock at seven o''clock and was dragged to the early morning.


    Li Shimin looked at the records of the court meeting in the Tai Chi hall after he left, and nodded with satisfaction. Generally speaking, Li Chengqian did not live up to his cultivation over the years. Some conventional state affairs were handled in a methodical manner. He took the four clock overdue Memorial. Li Chengqian had the courage to agree directly, which was beyond Li Shimin''s expectation.


    "The old minister wants to impeach the Mo family son for lawlessness and arbitrarily change the twelve hour timing method inherited for thousands of years."


    "The minister wants to impeach the four clocks. The Mohist organ city is already the limit of folk architecture, but Mohist Zi has built four clocks on the Mohist organ city."


    "The people of Chang''an City impeached the people, and the bells on all sides disturbed the people, which frightened the people."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Sure enough, civil servants began to impeach the four bells built by the Mohists.


    Li Shimin closed the record and looked up at the excited civil servants. He could not help but feel a pain in his eyebrows. He knew that the four clocks of Mohist school would cause disputes. Fortunately, he caught the boy Merton in advance.


    "Merton, how do you explain this?" Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    Merton had to stand out and bow his hands: "Your Majesty, the construction of four clocks in Mojia village has been played to the imperial court, and the ministers did not object at that time, but it was approved by his Highness the prince. However, although the four clocks exceeded the system, it allowed the people in the distance to see the precise time. When it comes to exceeding the system, the Buddhist pagoda and Taoist pagoda also exceeded the system. Why can''t there be impeachment by all officials?"


    Yu Zhining retorted: "the pagoda and the Taoist pagoda are the places where Buddhism and Taoism serve the gods. Only when they are in a high position can they show their respect for the gods. Your Highness the crown prince was deceived by you, which approved your exceeding the system. Now your majesty has returned, and the old minister urges your majesty to review the exceeding the system for four clocks."


    Merton sniffed and said, "Your Highness the king of Wei has never met a God in the hot-air balloon flying into the clouds, and your majesty has not received a response from the gods. The Taoist pagoda can worship the gods? The moon, the broom star, and the heavenly dog eat the sun..."


    Merton became bolder and bolder, and the faces of all officials were black. After so much popular science of Mohism, the theory of gods seemed to be more and more untenable in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Morton, don''t be rude to the gods." Li Shimin scolded. In the Tang Dynasty, you can not believe in ghosts and gods, but you can''t disrespect ghosts and gods.


    Merton then said: "Mo didn''t mean to slander Taoism and Buddhism. Instead, he worshipped the gods in the high tower to offer sacrifices to heaven, while the four clocks were accurate in time, benefiting the people of Chang''an city. The people are the most precious, the monarch is the least, and the country is the second. People''s livelihood and sacrifice are equally important. The four clocks can benefit the country and the people. The minister risked the risk of exceeding the system to play to the prince. Fortunately, the prince understood the great righteousness and approved the four clocks The construction of the face clock allows the people of Chang''an city to know when they are. "


    "My son''s minister allowed the clock on all sides to exceed the system without authorization, and asked my father to punish me." Li Chengqian bowed down and pleaded for sin.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "the clock on all sides is related to the people''s livelihood. There is nothing wrong with your exception."


    The four clocks can clearly show the precise time whether it is cloudy or at night, but it benefits half of Chang''an city. From this point of view, Li Chengqian has not done anything wrong. Even if he is re tried now, he will not object.


    The ministers could not help but sigh. They originally wanted to embarrass Prince Li Chengqian with the help of the four clocks, and warned Li Chengqian not to get too close to the Mohist school. However, they didn''t expect Li Shimin to protect the prince and directly identify the four clocks as a major event of people''s livelihood.


    Yu Zhining continued to say, "Your Highness the prince is far sighted, but the Mohist family has failed to live up to his Highness''s trust, and even tampered with the twelve hour system of the Tang Dynasty. It is rumored that the Mohist family''s move is suspected of reversing Yin and Yang, disturbing the secret of heaven, and undermining the national fortune for the benefit of the Mohist family."


    Merton flatly denied: "it''s nonsense. The Mohist School advocates the Ming ghost. It aims to explore the truth behind the ghosts and gods, and does not believe in the way of ghosts and gods'' luck. As for the division of twelve hours into two, there is no other intention, but to achieve accurate time. This is the obligation of every hundred schools of thought, and it is also the decision after the joint discussion of Mohist School and mathematics."


    "It''s nonsense! People all over the world are used to the method of twelve hour timing. As a hundred schools of thought, you Mohist school should follow the trend and serve the convenience of the people. However, you Mohist school is arrogant and willfully changes the method of timing to disturb the people''s life." Yu Zhining retorted.


    Merton sneered: "In my opinion, disturbing the people''s lives is disturbing the lives of scholars. All the time, the twelve hour timing method has been used by scholars, while the readers in Chang''an City account for only 10% of the total population, while the readers in the whole Tang Dynasty account for only half of the total population. Those 90% of the people can''t recognize Zi Chou Yin Mao in their whole life, and they only need one day to get there You can understand these twelve numbers, understand the four clocks, and know exactly when you are. "


    "It''s a load of nonsense. You''ve only been around for a few days. You dare to deny the twelve hour timing method inherited for thousands of years." Yu Zhining was angry and defeated.


    "It is not a way to deny the twelve hour clock, but to develop for twenty-four hours on twelve hours." the micro minister once made Ink magazine survey among ordinary people. Now 70% of the illiterate people can understand the time represented by the four sides of the clock, even the illiterate surnames can understand and the readers be nothing difficult to say. From this point, twenty figures are shown. The four hour system is easier to understand than the twelve hour timing represented by ZiChou Yinmao. It is not a negation, but progress. "Merton said positively.


    "Unexpectedly, 70% of the people have accepted the four clocks!"


    All officials were in an uproar. No one expected that the 24-hour timing method based on four clocks had been popularized in just a few days.


    At the same time, there was just seven bells outside the hall. It was already seven o''clock unconsciously.


    "It''s seven o''clock at the moment. After people eat, they can start the day''s work. Five hours later, it will be noon. Eleven hours later, that is, six o''clock in the afternoon, people finish their work and are ready to go home. Everything is accurate, orderly and orderly. Today''s four clocks have been integrated into people''s life. People eat, work and sleep according to the time of four clocks, which is 100 minutes What the surname needs is not ZiChou Yinmao, but a more accurate and easy to understand timing method. I think the people of Chang''an have made a choice whether to use the 12 hour timing method or the 24-hour timing method. "Merton looked around and said proudly.


    Suddenly, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were silent. The foundation of the existence of the hundred schools was the people all over the world. Now the four clocks of the Mohist school have been accepted by so many people, and they have gone.


    "In that case, the temporary 24-hour system of four side clocks will be discussed if there are any mistakes." Li Shimin waved his hand. Although he was not used to the 24-hour timing method, the ordinary people had accepted it, so he followed suit.


    Merton accidentally glanced at Li Shimin. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was on his side. What Merton didn''t know was that the reason why Li Shimin really let him go was that Li Shimin saw his memorial of the agent war.


    "Amazing!" Li Shimin''s eyes brightened, but he frowned when he saw that Li Chengqian had chosen Chang sun Chong''s compromise.


    "Stupid!"


    Li Shimin scolded in his heart. From his eyes, it can be seen that no matter what kind of proxy war or Datang''s sending troops in person, this is the best policy, while Chang sun Chong''s compromise policy is the worst policy. But Li Chengqian chose this one.


    "Tell your majesty, there has been good news on the grassland, and our army has won a great victory." Fang Xuanling bowed to report.


    Li Shimin was relieved. Although Li Chengqian chose the worst policy, fortunately there was no mistake.


    "It''s natural for our army to defeat Tuyuhun. The firearm army is the most powerful in the world. With the firearm army, the Tang Dynasty will be invincible." a royal historian flattered changsun Wuji and boasted.


    However, the eldest sun Wuji didn''t appreciate it. He came forward and said sadly, "the old minister is guilty. Please punish the villain severely."


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "what does eldest sun Aiqing mean? This battle has been won. How can I punish meritorious officials?"


    The eldest sun Wuji gnashed his teeth and said, "when the villain first went to the battlefield, he was so greedy for work that Xue yantuo caught the flaw and let the firearm army fall into a tight encirclement. Fortunately, General Li Ji sacrificed his life to save him, which turned the war situation around. If the overall situation of the hall was ruined because of the villain, the old minister would kill the villain himself."


    Chang sun Wuji said and handed over Chang sun Chong''s Memorial.


    Li Chengqian could not help but shrink his eyes. He did not expect that changsun Wuji should take the initiative to uncover changsun Chong''s criminal evidence. However, he did not think much. He thought that changsun Chong took the initiative to explain to changsun Wuji, and this wily uncle took the initiative to remedy it.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "greedy for merit and rash progress, which soldier doesn''t want to make achievements, it''s rare for Chong''er to have this heart. Fortunately, it didn''t cause great disaster."


    The eldest sun Wuji said with a ashamed face, "tell your majesty, if only these old ministers were there, but the villain abandoned the army and fled when the army besieged the firearm army."


    "Abandon the army and flee!"


    Suddenly, the man Dynasty was in an uproar. Among the first good news, Chang sun Chong was a hero to reverse his occupation, but now he has become a deserter who abandoned his army and fled. The difference is too big.


    Li Shimin could not help but change his face. If he was greedy for merit and rash, he could cover up for Chang sun Chong. However, abandoning the army and fleeing would involve Li Shimin''s bottom line.


    When you see more than half of the casualties of the firearm army, you can''t help but feel a pain in your heart. You should know that the firearm army is very expensive. It is better than the most expensive Modao team in terms of equipment, not to mention the consumption during normal training.


    Seeing Li Shimin''s face, Li Chengqian secretly rejoiced that he had not concealed it for Chang sun Chong, otherwise even he could not escape the blame.


    "Your Majesty doesn''t know. There is a misunderstanding about this matter. Weichen thinks that general changsun is not abandoning the army, but brave and resourceful. He has saved the firearm army among the ten thousand armies. He has done nothing wrong but meritorious service." Zhang lianglang, the Minister of the Ministry of work, said.


    "Greedy for merit, the firearm army fell into a siege, and abandoned the army. Mo wanted to hear what reason general Chang sun could do something without fault." Merton said coldly.


    The firearm army was trained by him. Even if he was taken away by Chang sun Chong, he also wholeheartedly supported it. Now that Chang sun Chong is trapped in a tight encirclement, it is a victory, but also a tragic victory and heavy losses, which makes Merton not angry.


    Zhang Liang explained: "Lord Mo didn''t know about the battlefield. At that time, Li Simo was originally behind the hall to cover the retreat of the firearm army. However, after Xue yantuo''s cavalry caught up with him, Li Simo even abandoned the firearm army and ran away alone. When General Chang sun saw this, he immediately ordered sun wukai, deputy general of the firearm army, to command the firearm army. He caught up with 40000 Turkic cavalry alone, threatening and luring Turkic cavalry to contain Xue yantuo outside. It was the most important thing Later, he continued to ask for help. It was not until general Li Ji arrived. If General Chang sun did not make a decision, I''m afraid that the firearm army would not only be destroyed, but also that the war would be won. "


    Li Chengqian sighed in his heart. He didn''t expect Chang sun Wuji to come forward and reduce Chang sun Chong''s guilt to the lowest. It must have been settled that he even bought and sold military skills. Fortunately, he never thought of tearing his face with his uncle and couldn''t help burying the secret in his heart.


    Merton laughed angrily: "Mo has never heard such a fresh and refined saying that he would run away without fighting. The battlefield has always been fought with real swords and guns, and he has never heard the story of deserting soldiers to help the army win. I think Mo returned to Chang''an City after the army won the Hui Dynasty and settled the firearm army. He was impeached by the Manchu Dynasty. Now the eldest son of the Chang Sun family abandoned the army and fled on the battlefield and became a great hero , it''s the biggest joke in the world. "


    Suddenly, the face of the man Dynasty''s civil and military changed. I remembered that the Mo family had dismissed the position of the firearm army because of the production of Princess Changle and returned to Beijing alone. At present, the mistakes made by Chang sun Chong are much more serious than those of the Mo family. If they pass the customs so easily, I''m afraid they can''t explain.


    "It''s a taboo for a general to abandon the army at any time, especially on the battlefield. It''s not enough to calm the army without punishment." Qin Qiong, as a military representative, said.


    Li Shimin nodded his head slowly and said, "send the order and take the post of general of changsun Chong firearms army. The merits and demerits will be issued after the Ministry of military finds out."


    No matter what Chang sun Chong''s purpose is, it is a foregone conclusion that he will abandon the army on the battlefield. According to Merton''s lesson, Chang sun Chong''s position as a general of the firearm army will never be preserved.


    "Your Majesty is wise! The old minister has nothing to say." Chang sun Wuji killed his relatives in great righteousness. If there were no trouble from the Mohist school, Chang sun Chong could easily pass the pass, but he could accept the result. At least Chang sun Chong still has room to turn around.


    "This villain, if I hadn''t got the information in advance, you would be dead this time!" said the eldest sun Wuji with hatred in his heart.

 Chapter 1270

    In the Mohist village, Yang passed through the crowd gracefully and enjoyed the warm greetings of the people passing by, which was many times better than the misery she was driven out of the Wu mansion. However, she can have today''s life because she has a good daughter, Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist family.


    "Mrs. Wu, has Mei Niang come back recently?" a neighbor greeted warmly.


    Yang''s mouth was slightly raised and said proudly, "this dead girl is very busy in Chang''an city. She seems to be busy about four clocks. She hasn''t come back for a long time."


    Speaking of her daughter, she is full of show off.


    "Mei Niang is really promising. I heard that the four clock was built only after a lot of people were transferred from Mojia village." the aunt next door exclaimed.


    "That''s how mohou taught me well. As the saying goes, a woman without talent is virtue. According to me, Meiniang might as well be an ordinary woman, and I don''t have to worry so much." Yang was half proud and half sighed.


    "If I say, Mei Niang is not small, it''s time to settle down. You know, my eldest daughter is the same age as Mei Niang, and now she has two children." the aunt next door gossip.


    Yang''s momentum suddenly weakened. Wu Meiniang made her proud in every aspect, except that she was unmarried at an older age, which made her unable to lift her head in front of the public every time.


    "I can''t control her. Mohou advocated the freedom of marriage of Mohist women, and she didn''t listen to what my mother said." Yang''s helpless way was that she didn''t think of introducing Wu Meiniang to someone, but she couldn''t see it at all with Meiniang''s eyes.


    "In my opinion, the young master said that marriage is free, but you can''t let your children decide. It''s said that even his Highness the king of Jin is pursuing Meiniang. This is a good marriage. Wait, the young talents in Chang''an city will get married long ago. At that time, Meiniang just wants to get married. Can she still be a concubine?" the aunt next door gossip.


    "Your Highness the king of Jin!" Yang couldn''t help but move in her heart. When she was young, but after the royal family, she naturally knew the power of the royal family. Once Meiniang married his Highness the king of Jin, let alone greatly increase her status, it''s not impossible to recapture the Wu family. However, he once asked Wu Meiniang, but Wu Meiniang denied that she was unwilling to marry his Highness the king of Jin, which made her very angry.


    Without a word, Yang didn''t want to say more on this topic, so he went home bitterly.


    "The child has seen his mother!" Yang had just walked to the door when a nightmare voice sounded in her ear.


    "Wu yuanshuang!" Yang suddenly turned pale and said calmly, "don''t be presumptuous. This is Mojia village. If you mess around, Meiniang won''t let you go."


    Wu yuanshuang said respectfully, "mother is worried. My child came here today for the sake of Meiniang''s life. There is no malice."


    "Don''t meddle in Meiniang''s life, otherwise you can''t pass mohou." Yang warned Wu yuanshuang.


    Wu yuanshuang said humbly, "what I''m talking about is the marriage between Meiniang and his Royal Highness the king of Jin. Even Marquis Mo is happy to see its success. Now I''m waiting for Meiniang to nod. Once Meiniang marries into the royal family, her mother is a relative of the royal family. What are you hesitating about?"


    "But Meiniang disagreed, and I had no choice." Yang said helplessly.


    "It''s said that women don''t stay. Meiniang is nearly 20 years old. If you miss the royal highness of Jin, mother thinks that Meiniang can find a good match. In my opinion, Meiniang can''t be allowed to fool around. It''s most appropriate for you to advocate marriage with the royal highness of Jin." Wu yuanshuang''s words hit Yang''s heart and worried about Wu Meiniang''s marriage in Yang''s heart, And she also felt that it was her blessing for his Highness the king of Jin to see Wu Meiniang, but she didn''t know.


    "I!" Yang was stunned.


    "Yes, you are Wu Meiniang''s mother. As long as you write the marriage letter and have the words of the matchmaker ordered by your parents, Mei Niang will be reluctant to push the boat." Wu yuanshuang made a bad move.


    Yang could not help it. If it had been before, Yang would not have interfered with Wu Meiniang, but seeing Wu Meiniang getting older, she became more and more anxious, and she also thought that Wu Meiniang would never find a more suitable object than Li Zhi, king of Jin.


    "The Lord of the Kingdom has made a wishful thinking and used my daughter to seek wealth for you." Yang suddenly sneered. According to Wu yuanshuang''s temperament, she didn''t believe that Wu yuanshuang would be so kind.


    Wu yuanshuang said bluntly, "the child is a little selfish. However, I''m afraid the mother gets the most benefits when Meiniang enters the palace. I believe the mother knows this best."


    Hearing Wu yuanshuang''s words, Yang suddenly became silent. It is true that Wu Meiniang became the princess of Jin. The biggest beneficiaries are Wu Meiniang and her mother. Although Wu yuanshuang''s benefits are equal, they are also very limited.


    "OK, I''ll believe you this time, but Meiniang must marry the king of Jin as her wife. You know Meiniang''s character and can''t be a concubine." Yang said with a clenched teeth.


    "That''s nature!" Wu yuanshuang readily agreed.


    Soon, Wu yuanshuang left excitedly with the marriage letter. With this marriage letter, he can take the opportunity to get on with his Highness the king of Jin. This is a happy situation. As for Wu Meiniang, she can''t decide the current situation.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Thank you this time, your Highness the king of Jin. Otherwise, I''m afraid my rebellious son''s life will be hard to protect!"


    In the king''s house of Jin, the eldest sun Wuji sincerely thanked him.


    Chang sun Chong is the legitimate son of the Chang Sun family and the hope of the next generation of the Chang Sun family. If Li Zhi, king of Jin, hadn''t tipped him off, he might still be in the dark. Once the class returned to the dynasty, it would be too late. Fortunately, he received Li Zhi''s warning in advance and didn''t know how much money to pay, which minimized Chang sun Chong''s guilt.


    "My uncle is worried too much. You and I are close relatives. When my cousin is in trouble, how can the child slave die? However, the child slave thought that the prince''s brother would share his worries for his uncle, but he didn''t expect the prince''s brother to stand idly by." Li Zhi shook his head and sighed.


    The eldest sun Wuji was embarrassed in his heart, but he didn''t leak his voice and color on his face. He said, "the prince is the prince. You can''t get involved easily. There''s nothing wrong with the prince''s practice."


    Li Zhi sneered. What the prince had done was good for him. He directly abandoned Chang sun Chong. He didn''t believe that Chang sun Wuji had no pimples in his heart.


    "However, it''s still a pity that my cousin''s position as a general of the firearm army has not been preserved." Li Zhi regretted.


    "Mo family!" said the eldest sun Wuji, gnashing his teeth in his heart.


    "Generals have many risks. It''s a good thing for my cousin to abandon martial arts and learn from literature in the future." Li Zhi comforted.


    Changsun Wuji feels even worse. Generals are risky, but everyone knows that generals are promoted the fastest, especially the general of the firearm army. For this position, the changsun mansion has paid a lot of money. Now it''s lost without any credit. It can be said that he lost his wife and his soldiers.


    "My uncle knows your mind, but my uncle advised you that this road is hard to go!" the eldest sun Wuji was silent and said frankly.


    Li Zhi was stunned when he heard the speech. He laughed and said, "if it''s not easy to go, you have to go. How can you be reconciled if you don''t go? I was born in the imperial family. I have no choice. My father and Emperor left me in Chang''an City, which is not to take me as an alternative to the throne of Prince."


    "Now that you have made up your mind, your uncle won''t say more." Chang sun Wuji sighed. He has experienced the change of Xuanwu Gate. Naturally, he knows how dangerous the dispute over the throne is, but he also knows that it is impossible to persuade Li Zhi.


    Li Zhi frowned. He tried his best to plan to separate his uncle and the prince, but he didn''t get any promise from his uncle. He was about to ask, when suddenly there was a hurried knock outside the door.


    "Come in!" Li Zhi frowned. He once told him not to disturb if there was nothing important. Now knocking at the door must be urgent.


    I saw the close eunuch pushing the door with a happy face, holding a red marriage letter in his hand and saying, "Your Highness, I just sent the marriage letter to the Duke of the state and asked the Duke of the state to marry the king of Jin."


    "Push it off..." Li Zhi frowned, and all the important officials in the court paid attention to it. How can he not know who should be the Duke of the state, and even now he is all over Wu Meiniang, regardless of her daughter of the Duke, he is not interested.


    "Slow down, Ying Guogong''s samurai Yu, no, it should be Wu yuanshuang now. He is a close relative of Wu Meiniang." changsun Wuji and samurai Yu are colleagues who set up troops at the same time, and instantly thought of the relationship between Ying Guogong and Wu Meiniang.


    "Could it be that..." Li Zhi was delighted when he heard the speech. When he saw the marriage letter, it was Wu Meiniang and his marriage letter, and it was from the hands of Wu Meiniang''s mother Yang.


    "Meiniang agreed. It''s great!" Li Zhi said excitedly.


    Eldest sun Wuji shook his head and said, "no, in my opinion, it may have come from Wu yuanshuang and Yang''s hand. Meiniang didn''t know about it, but so far, Meiniang can''t control it. It seems that my uncle will drink the wedding wine of the child slave soon."


    "I didn''t expect it to be so smooth." Li Zhi said happily. He chased Wu Meiniang fruitlessly, but he didn''t expect to be promoted by Yang so easily.


    Chang sun Wuji waved the eunuch back, and then said, "this is the power of power. If you get to that position one day, all the beauties in the world will come to the door automatically."


    Li Zhi giggled and said happily, "I love my Meiniang and won''t marry anyone else."


    "No, you must marry. You want to marry Wu Meiniang. It''s a wonderful move, but it''s far from enough. Today''s world is still the world of Confucianism and aristocratic families. It''s impossible for you to get to that position and leave the support of five surnames and seven hopes, so you need a positive wife with five surnames and seven hopes."


    "It''s impossible to have a positive wife with five surnames and seven hopes. The Mohist family pursues a monogamy system, not to mention a positive wife, not even a concubine." Li Zhi shook his head.


    "You should think clearly. It''s impossible to make friends with ministers in your capacity. Marriage with five surnames and seven hopes is the best choice. Only with the support of five surnames and seven hopes can you have a chance to fight for that position. At the beginning, your Majesty was deeply in love with the queen, and finally married concubine Yin, concubine Yang and concubine Wei for that position..." Sun Wuji said bluntly.


    Although empress Chang sun is his sister, he supports Li Shimin''s marriage. Yin Fei''s father, Yin Shishi, is the enemy who dug up Li''s ancestral grave; Yang Fei was the queen of the royal family of the former dynasty; Wei Fei is the daughter of an aristocratic family in Chang''an city. She is still married for the second time; As well as Zheng Chonghua, who is now favored, he was born in the Zheng family in Xingyang with five surnames and seven hopes. Everything is just political interests.


    "It''s impossible. Meiniang is extremely arrogant and can''t agree to share a husband with others." Li Zhi resolutely shook his head. He just wanted to spend his life with his beloved woman with joy. How can he bear to destroy all this with his own hands.


    "Since ancient times, which emperor is not three palaces and six courtyards? Once you get to that position, what are the rules of Mohism?" the eldest sun Wuji sniffed.


    "Even if the royal family ignores the Mohist rules, Meiniang will definitely hate me all my life." Li Zhi said with a bitter smile. Naturally, he knew Wu Meiniang''s temperament and could never forgive him for this behavior.


    "For your love of helping me this time, my uncle will be a villain. Wait, my uncle will go to the queen and ask for a concubine for you. In this way, one will choose Wu Meiniang, the other will choose the daughter of an aristocratic family, and both will be flat wives and princess. In this way, you can not only explain to Wu Meiniang, but also get the support of Mohism and five surnames and seven hopes at the same time, so that you can have a chance to go to court "Fight in that position," said changsun Wuji solemnly. In this way, he can easily repay Li Zhi''s favor and don''t have to be excessively involved in the Royal storm.


    "But Meiniang won''t agree..." Li Zhi said painfully.


    "You can choose whether you want a country or a beauty." Sun Wuji pressed step by step.


    Li Zhi immediately closed his eyes in pain and struggled in his heart.


    "If Wu Meiniang loves you, she will naturally compromise for you. If she doesn''t love you, she will fall in love with you when you wait for that position in the future." Chang sun Wuji said softly.


    "Everything is up to my uncle."


    Li Zhi closed his eyes and looked miserable. He knew that from today on, he would destroy his love with his own hands.

 Chapter 1271

    "My brother really has no face to see my sister when the rebellious son does such a great and evil thing!"


    In the legislative palace, the eldest sun Wuji said with a ashamed face.


    Empress Chang sun frowned and said, "Chong''er is very cautious at ordinary times. How can he make such a serious mistake at a critical moment."


    "I''m not just holding a heavy army, eager to make meritorious contributions, and determined to compete with Mozi." changsun Wuji said bluntly.


    Empress Chang sun couldn''t help sighing. I''m afraid the cause of this matter was the aftermath of the divorce between Chang sun Chong and Princess Changle. She thought so many years had passed, but she didn''t expect to cause such a big storm again.


    "Chong''er is wrong about this. Now they are both married and can live a good life. There can be no more disputes." the empress Chang sun scolded.


    The eldest sun Wuji''s great righteousness Ling ran said, "this time Chong''er is to blame himself. The crimes he committed can be dealt with according to the military law. My brother has nothing to say."


    Changsun Wuji knew the temperament of empress changsun and said it with awe inspiring righteousness.


    Empress changsun sighed that Wuji could kill her relatives in righteousness, but as an aunt, she couldn''t ignore her nephew. What should be helped should be helped. At least Chong''er should not be punished by military law.


    "My brother came here today, not for the sake of the rebellious son, but for his Highness the king of Jin." the eldest sun Wuji changed his topic.


    "Child slave?" the eldest grandson empress didn''t understand.


    Changsun Wuji shook his head slightly and said, "the child slave has grown up, and it''s time for a big marriage. The queen doesn''t know. Within a month after the queen left, the eternal love between his Highness the king of Jin and the senior sister of the Mohist School spread all over Chang''an City, making a great noise."


    "Young slaves and Meiniang? Their ages are a little different!" empress Chang sun looked surprised. She heard it for the first time, but she was impressed by Wu Meiniang. She is a rare good family woman, that is, she is older.


    "Wu Meiniang is a little older, but who wants my nephew to focus on her? If I rashly oppose it, if I let Chong''er repeat the old things, I''m afraid......" Chang sun Wuji stopped. He took the initiative to mention Chang sun Chong. First, he took the opportunity to beg for affection for Chang sun Chong, and second, he took the opportunity to pave the way for Li Zhi''s selection of a concubine.


    "If they want, it''s a good thing." with the lessons of Princess Changle and changsun Chong, empress changsun sighed. In terms of identity, Wu Meiniang is not only the daughter of the Duke of the country, but also the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school who is famous in Chang''an city. Except that she is a little older, her appearance and identity are enough to match the position of the princess of Jin.


    With a wry smile on his face, sun Wuji said, "this is a good thing, but Wu Meiniang doesn''t look at the young slaves. Now it''s just the wishful thinking of the young slaves. If it goes on like this, it''s not a way, so my brother suggested to choose a concubine for the young slaves immediately."


    "Choose a concubine?"


    Empress Chang sun frowned. She didn''t dislike Wu Meiniang''s age. Meiniang even disliked young slaves, which made her mother dissatisfied.


    "Wu Meiniang is favored by Mo Hou. She has no taboos at ordinary times, and her eyes are higher than the top. Her Highness the king of Jin is in love for the first time and has never contacted women all over the world. If the queen orders to choose a concubine, if Wu Meiniang agrees, she will naturally see the concubine. This is a happy situation. If Wu Meiniang doesn''t want to, naturally there will be beautiful women selected. The youth''s mind is changeable. Maybe Her Highness the king of Jin ¡­¡­¡­¡£¡±


    Empress changsun Wuji didn''t finish. Empress changsun immediately understood what he meant. Instead of dragging, she might as well cut the mess with a quick knife. There are so many beauties in the world. Maybe Li Zhi turned around and forgot Wu Meiniang after seeing so many beauties.


    "What if the young slaves still fall in love with Mei Niang when the princess of Jin is elected? If Mei Niang agrees, what about the daughters of other aristocratic families?" the eldest grandson frowned. Now it is well known that Li Zhi, king of Jin, falls in love with Wu Mei Niang. He chose a princess for the king of Jin with great fanfare. As a result, he played a supporting role for Wu Mei Niang. After that, he sent her back, I''m afraid even the royal family can''t explain.


    "So my brother''s suggestion is to keep the positions of two princesses of Jin, one for the internal Meiniang and the other for the daughters of other aristocratic families. In this way, it''s not the best of both worlds." eldest sun Wuji arched his hand.


    Empress Chang Sun said with a wry smile, "that''s the only way."


    If you are just a side imperial concubine, I''m afraid those aristocratic families are reluctant to marry their legitimate women. Only the position of princess can make those aristocratic families lose money.


    Soon, the news that his Highness the king of Jin was about to choose a concubine spread all over Chang''an city. Suddenly, the aristocratic families in Chang''an City became a sensation and recommended the best marriageable women in their family. This does not mean that they are optimistic about Li Zhi, but plan ahead.


    Then came the battle of the prairie. The prince made a mistake, the Chu Jun made a mistake, and the position of the prince shook a little. All aristocratic families immediately heard the wind. If one day Li Chengqian made a mistake, Li Zhi is the most likely to ascend the throne.


    Even if this possibility is very small, the aristocratic family can''t miss its influence on Li Zhi. Marriage is also the best means. At the most time, Wu Meiniang can''t monopolize Li Zhi, or the Mohist school can''t monopolize Li Zhi.


    "This time the king of Jin chose a concubine, which was a big scene. There were two concubines of Jin, and the legitimate women of the major aristocratic families in Chang''an City signed up one after another."


    "More than that, I heard that even three of the legitimate women with five surnames and seven hopes have entered Chang''an City, and the other four are still on the road."


    "However, according to me, most of the daughters of these aristocratic families are just a foil. The princess of Jin must be Wu Meiniang. The Mohist family pursues the monogamy system. How can the eldest martial sister of the Mohist family agree to polygamy." another person broke out the hot news and detonated the whole audience.


    The Mohist family pursues the monogamy system. After the marriage law of the Tang family is only voluntary, the Mohist family has added the freedom of marriage and divorce on this basis, and takes the prenuptial agreement as the guarantee.


    "I''m afraid this is also the reason why Wu Meiniang didn''t agree with his Highness the king of Jin at the beginning!" a discerning man sighed. The biggest obstacle between Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi is the conceptual incompatibility. The Mohist ideas are more open-minded and advanced, while the royal rules are more rigid and conservative.


    "What if you don''t agree? How can the Mohist rules compare with the royal rules? For ordinary people, the Mohist woman and lady can only choose one. This time, the king of Jin chooses two princesses at a time, which seems to be a blessing for everyone." some people also sneered.


    There are two different styles of women in Chang''an city. One is a Mohist woman. Most Mohist women receive school education. They have an open style before marriage. They can have many relationships. They don''t understand needlework, but they have knowledge and work. After marriage, they stick to the monogamy system, so they don''t hesitate to leave for many times. The other is a lady cultivated by Confucianism. She doesn''t step out of the door before marriage. She is knowledgeable and reasonable, proficient in needlework, and her style is slightly inferior to that of an ink woman, but polygamy is allowed after marriage.


    These two kinds of women are the dream match of Chang''an men, but they have their own advantages and disadvantages, which makes countless Chang''an men toss and turn, but they can''t have both.


    Now it seems that fish and bear''s paws are in the palm of the royal family.

 Chapter 1272

    "What, you joined forces with Wu yuanshuang and wrote the marriage letter without authorization." Wu Meiniang was furious in the Mojia village.


    "Mother is also for you. You are nearly 20 years old. It will be late if you don''t get married. Besides, you are picky about what your Highness the king of Jin doesn''t deserve you." Yang retorted.


    Wu Meiniang raised her eyebrow and said, "you don''t have to worry about my affairs. Master has changed the law of the Tang Dynasty on her own. In addition to the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, there is a willingness to marry. As long as I don''t sign the marriage certificate, no one can force me to marry."


    "It''s unfilial of you to disobey your mother..." Yang''s anger was badly defeated,


    Wu Meiniang said faintly, "I have been supporting my mother since I was young. Who dares to say I am unfilial? My marriage master has allowed me to make a decision by myself. Don''t interfere in the future."


    Yang suddenly became angry. Wu Meiniang began to take on the important task of supporting her family since she studied with the Mohist family. Especially after she invented the silver mirror, their mother and daughter''s life was greatly improved, even better than that in the Wu family. Yang''s words had no effect on Wu Meiniang at all. Only one person who could control Wu Meiniang was the Mohist family. But the Mohist school was in a laissez faire state.


    Wu Meiniang angrily left Mojia village and went straight to Yingguo government in Chang''an city. Wu yuanshuang knew that Wu Meiniang had already disappeared.


    "If you run away, the monk can''t run away from the temple!"


    Wu Meiniang sneered. As a senior sister of the Mohist family, she knew everything about the industry of Ziqian''s family in Chang''an city. She came to the door and smashed all these stores in person, and then her anger rested a little.


    "The order goes on. From now on, Mojia village will try its best to snipe at the Qian family''s business in Chang''an city. I want Wu yuanshuang to know the consequences of calculating me." Wu Meiniang said coldly.


    As the eldest martial sister of Mohism, she usually acts on behalf of the teacher and has great power. In Chang''an City, not to mention women, few men can compare with her. This is also the reason why she doesn''t like Chang''an city men and why she is unwilling to accept Li Zhi. She has grown into an eagle and can fly freely, But how could she be willing to live a canary life in the cage.


    After a bad breath, Wu Meiniang was a little relieved. She came to the fish champion restaurant depressed.


    "The elder martial sister of Mohism is coming!"


    "In a few days, it will be the future Princess of Jin."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When the diners of the fish champion restaurant saw Wu Meiniang coming in, they immediately whispered. Even if the voice was very light, it still spread to Wu Meiniang''s ears.


    "Quiet noise!"


    Wu Mei Niang snorted coldly.


    The diner couldn''t help laughing, so he stopped commenting.


    Wu Meiniang came to a table near the window. The Mohist children in the restaurant quickly served delicious food. However, Wu Meiniang didn''t have much appetite and stopped chopsticks after eating a little.


    "What a lady looks like, but it''s a pity that she is a daughter. If a man is a man, he will certainly make some achievements." on the table not far away, the master and apprentice of the yin-yang family in disguise are quietly looking at Wu Meiniang. The young mage sighed that Wu Meiniang acts heroically and valiantly, and even he can''t help but be upset.


    "If it weren''t for such a person, how could he become a man of the moment who pried the luck of the Tang Dynasty." Yin and Yang Zi sighed. He looked at Wu Meiniang and his apprentice. He couldn''t help worrying about the future of yin and Yang family.


    Wu Meiniang seemed to notice, and suddenly turned her head. It seemed that the two masters and disciples quickly avoided their eyes and pretended that nothing had happened.


    Wu Meiniang got nothing and was upset. When the fish champion restaurant was quiet, she saw a gentle, virtuous and beautiful woman walking into the restaurant.


    The beautiful woman looked around, looked up at Wu Meiniang alone at the clinical table, showed a charming smile, and stepped forward.


    "Xiao Huier, see your sister." the woman approached and saluted Wu Meiniang.


    "Xiao... After Xiao in Lanling?" Wu Meiniang raised her eyebrows.


    "My sister is really smart. She is worthy of being loved by his Highness the king of Jin. Hui''er just arrived at Chang''an City and came to see her sister at the first time. I hope my sister will not dislike it." Xiao hui''er gently covered her cherry mouth and showed the etiquette and style of the aristocratic family in her every move.


    "This woman''s face is too noble to speak of!" the little master of Yin-Yang family exclaimed.


    Yin and Yang son shook his head and said, "it''s far from the phase of the female emperor. It''s not a worry."


    Sure enough, Wu Meiniang sneered, "you and I just met for the first time, but we can''t be sisters."


    Xiao Huier didn''t care about Wu Meiniang''s estrangement. Instead, she said with a smile: "let alone how old her sister is, Huier should call you a sister. In the future, we will join the king''s house of Jin. Her sister is a well deserved Princess of Jin, and Huier should call you a lifelong sister."


    Xiao Huier looks sweet, but there is a hidden edge in her mouth, satirizing Wu Meiniang''s age.


    Wu Meiniang looked at Xiao Huier''s beautiful face and sneered: "if you were born in the harem, you must be a good player in competing for favor. However, the days when a group of women compete for favor and beauty around a man will never happen to Mohist women, because Mohist women can only have one husband and will never lose themselves because of men."


    "I won''t lose myself!" Xiao Huier was distracted. She was born in a famous family after the Xiao family in Lanling. She didn''t want to share a husband with others. However, she had to compromise for the mission of the family.


    "It''s a load of nonsense. You''re just the daughter of an upstart, and you''re lucky to be accepted by the Mohist marquis. If you dare to speak so wildly, can your Mohist rules override the royal family." another beautiful but arrogant beauty came proudly.


    "Who are you?" Wu Mei Niang looked at someone and said contemptuously.


    "My young lady is the Wang surname of Taiyuan, who was born at the head of the five surnames and seven hopes, and the direct queen Qiang of the fifth room." Wang Qiang proudly said that she was gorgeous in clothes, exquisite in appearance and noble in birth. Only the arrogance on her face slightly destroyed the beauty.


    "Daughter of the Taiyuan royal family." Xiao Huier frowned. She thought she had no rival except Wu Meiniang, but she didn''t expect that even the legitimate daughter of the Taiyuan royal family came to compete for the princess of Jin, and her family background was better than him, which made her some lack of confidence.


    "The empress of women." when Yin and Yang saw Wang Qiang''s face, they couldn''t help sighing. King Li Zhi of Jin was worthy of the spirit of the son of heaven. There were so many women with the appearance of wealth.


    "What about the legitimate daughter of Taiyuan Wang family? What else do you have besides your identity after Taiyuan Wang family? Apart from this identity, can you survive in Chang''an City for three days? My Mohist women are self reliant, independent and work like men. No woman needs men to support her. Mohist women can survive without men. This is the strength of Mohist women to adhere to monogamy , but you can''t leave men at all. You can only be a man''s attachment and get it by relying on men''s love. Even you don''t hesitate to fight for your life. Since ancient times, whether it''s a struggle in the harem or a rich family''s deep house, the struggle for love is bloody and ugly. That''s your future, not the future of my Mohist woman, "Wu Meiniang hit the nail on the head.


    Xiao Huier and Wang Qiang turned pale and staggered. They were in a rich family. Naturally, they knew how tragic it would be to lose their favor, not to mention that they were familiar with poetry and books. They didn''t know how dangerous the struggle in the harem in history. They were the daughters of a proud family at the moment, and they might not end up in the future.


    "Sure enough, the empress''s appearance still can''t fight the empress''s appearance." Yin and Yang sighed.


    "Don''t scare your sister. In the future, we will enter the king''s house of Jin together. It''s a family. Naturally, we should live in harmony. There''s no competition for favor." Xiao Huier turned her words and said with a smile.


    "That is to say, the Wang family and the Xiao family still have an alliance? Hui''er and I are cousins and sisters. This time, we are even closer." Wang Qiang also reacted and answered.


    Between the words, the two saw Wu Meiniang''s sharp words, and there was a trend to jointly deal with Wu Meiniang.


    "This is the Imperial Palace striving for favor. It''s almost comparable to the annals of the Three Kingdoms. It''s really wonderful. Unfortunately, Meiniang may not have the chance to experience it!" Wu Meiniang got up and left a natural and unrestrained figure for her second daughter.


    The two girls immediately looked embarrassed and flattered. They also read the annals of the Three Kingdoms. Their current situation is that Shu and Wu joined hands against Cao Wei. Unfortunately, Wu Meiniang, Cao Wei, is restless and plays cards with common sense.


    After Wu Meiniang left, Xiao Huier and Wang Qiang ignored it and couldn''t help humming. The strong sisterhood just now suddenly disappeared.

 Chapter 1273

    "Mei Niang! I really don''t know! I don''t know that my uncle proposed to accept two Jin princesses in front of my mother."


    In the Mo mansion, Li Zhi put down his figure and acted in front of Wu Meiniang, asking for forgiveness.


    Wu Meiniang said expressionless, "what''s strange about this? There are only three thousand beauties in the Royal harem. What''s more, this is the best way. Otherwise, the legitimate daughter of the royal family, the Xiao family of Lanling, can''t recommend herself to the door."


    Wu Meiniang broke the Royal plan. Facing Wu Meiniang''s insight into everything, Li Zhi immediately felt that he had been seen through.


    "You know what I''m thinking. The main reason why my mother did this is that you don''t agree. As long as you like, the king immediately reported to my mother that he will no longer choose a princess. He will only accept you as a princess, abide by the Mohist monogamy system, and grow old together." Li Zhi suddenly said with emotion. At this moment, he really had the intention to abandon everything and just want to spend his life with Meiniang.


    However, Wu Meiniang Rao was hard hearted and not only moved, but she firmly shook her head and said, "I always thought your mind was a teenager''s mind. After a while, you will stop. You didn''t talk to your confidant. Now it seems that I was wrong."


    "After you are the royal family, I am the son of the Mohist family. The most wives and concubines in the world are the royal family, and the most loyal to husband and wife is the Mohist family. The royal rules and etiquette are various and complex, and the Mohist rules and etiquette are simple..." Wu Meiniang compared the royal family with the Mohist family one by one, which can be said to be very different.


    "These kings can adapt. Besides, sister Changle and mohou are also the marriage between Mohist and royal family. Now they are also happy." Li Zhi refused.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "that''s because the rules of the Mohist school can be adapted to anyone, while the royal rules can only be obeyed by others. Apart from others, I''m the senior sister of the Mohist school. I need to work hard for the things of the Mohist school. It''s impossible to live in the royal palace. Does the royal family allow the princess to appear in public?"


    "This......" Li Zhi immediately concluded and adhered to the monogamy system. It''s OK to say that if the princess was allowed to appear in public, it would be detrimental to the royal face. He agreed, and I''m afraid Li Shimin wouldn''t agree.


    "Also, after a Mohist woman marries, she will sign a prenuptial agreement. Once both parties break the contract, they can rely on this Agreement and leave. This is the unique freedom of Mohist women. Will the royal family allow Princess Jin and leave to marry another person?" Wu Meiniang asked again.


    "This...!" Li Zhi was in a cold sweat. There was no need to think about it. The royal family would not allow the Royal daughter-in-law to marry another person. It was a great humiliation. In other words, once married to the royal family, life is a royal man and death is a royal ghost. There is no other way.


    "You know the king''s mind and will never take a concubine." Li Zhi hurriedly promised.


    Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "I believe what you say at the moment, but I can''t guarantee that you will always abide by it. In Datang, the imperial power is the largest, and no one can restrict it. The cost of your mistakes is very small, but I have to lose my life. I dare not play this bet."


    Looking at Wu Meiniang, who is absolutely calm, Li Zhi''s heart is decadent. He can''t move his sweetheart with deep affection. Is it true that Wu Meiniang, who has the blood of Ziqian''s family, naturally regards feelings as nothing?


    "I don''t care. My mother has given me the marriage certificate, and the princess of Jin who was appointed by my mother has decided that it''s you. It''s done, and you can''t go back?" Li Zhi shouted reluctantly. Wu Meiniang is the best help for him to go to that position. The more she is absolutely rational and ruthless, the greater her help to him, he can''t miss her, even if he uses rogue means.


    Wu Meiniang was not moved by the pressure from the empress changsun and said, "then what you wait for can only be a bride''s body."


    "Meiniang, you......" Li Zhi added with surprise and anger.


    "Enough young slaves!"


    Princess Changle suddenly appeared, easing the rigid situation.


    "Sister Changle, the child slave is wrong!" Li Zhi immediately recovered his clever face and quickly admitted his mistake.


    "You go back first! I''ll talk to Mei Niang." Princess Changle advised.


    "Sister, you grew up watching me. You know me best. Just help me persuade Meiniang!" Li Zhi pleaded with Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle waved impatiently and asked Li Zhi to leave first. Now he can only make trouble here.


    "Shiniang!"


    After Li Zhi left, Wu Meiniang threw herself weakly into the arms of Princess Changle. Since she left the Wu house, she has never showed weakness, except facing the master and Shiniang.


    "Speaking of it, I watched you and the young slave grow up. Naturally, I know you are all first-class good children. I thought it would be a good thing for you to become a couple, but I didn''t expect to make this step." Princess Changle sighed.


    "Shiniang''s kindness is appreciated by Meiniang, but Meiniang can not easily control her own life. She really doesn''t want to place her life in the hands of others." Wu Meiniang said bluntly.


    "Fool, how can you compare career and love? If there is a teacher''s wife, the child slave dare not bear you." Princess Changle promised.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said: "It''s not that I can''t trust Shifu, but that I can''t trust men. Have you encountered less among the women of Mohism in recent years? Obviously, there are still many people who want to take concubines, even ordinary people. Can the powerful king of Jin be an exception? I''m the senior senior sister of Mohism. I must set a good example for the women of Mohism. Shifu can try Think about it. If one day Shifu wants to take a concubine, will Shiniang be heartbroken? It''s better to prepare for a rainy day than to suffer in the end. "


    "It''s all your master''s fault. He taught you too rationally. Who can say the emotional things accurately, let alone punish him for the mistakes that the child slave hasn''t made." Princess Changle said helplessly.


    "If you marry an ordinary Mohist woman, you can stay together, but if you marry the royal family, Meiniang will have no way back, not to mention that Meiniang naturally yearns for freedom and freedom, and can''t stand the royal red tape." Wu Meiniang said firmly.


    Seeing that Wu Meiniang could not be moved, Princess Changle had no choice but to say, "since you have made up your mind, that Shiniang will enter the Palace tomorrow and plead with her mother. I hope this matter will be over."


    "No! Don''t meddle, martial mother. It''s because of Meiniang. Let Meiniang solve it by herself. Tomorrow I''ll go to the palace and ask the Queen''s mother for her guilt." Wu Meiniang said as if she died.


    For ordinary girls, who dares to face the empress Chang sun, but Wu Meiniang resolutely decided to go into the palace alone and apologize to the empress. People admire her pure courage.


    Princess Changle wanted to persuade again. Merton pushed the door and stopped him.


    "It''s also the fault of being a teacher. If he hadn''t given Li Zhi hope, he wouldn''t have gone so far. I''ll give you a brocade bag. You can help you when you meet the queen tomorrow." Merton sighed.


    If he hadn''t lamented their marriage in their previous lives and deliberately let them find the pendulum effect together, I''m afraid there would be no current deadlock. Now he has to try his best to remedy it.


    "Thank you! Shifu Shiniang!" Wu Meiniang nodded tearfully and went out of the Mo mansion to dry her tears. This time, she would challenge the greatest power in the world, imperial power, alone.

 Chapter 1274

    Revise the end of the last chapter. There is no charge for these 500 words.


    "Please forgive me, master. It''s the disciple who has caused trouble for the Mohist school." Wu Meiniang said with a ashamed face.


    Merton shook his head and said, "you are the son of the Mohist school. The Mohist school will always be your most solid backing. There is also a teacher''s fault in this matter. If it hadn''t been for the teacher who gave Li Zhi hope, it wouldn''t have been so far."


    If he hadn''t lamented their marriage in their previous lives and deliberately let them find the pendulum effect together, I''m afraid there would be no current deadlock.


    Seeing this, Princess Changle had no choice but to say, "since you have made up your mind, that Shiniang will enter the Palace tomorrow and plead with her mother. I hope this matter will be over."


    "No! Don''t meddle, martial mother. It''s because of Meiniang. Let Meiniang solve it by herself. Tomorrow I''ll go to the palace and ask the Queen''s mother for her guilt." Wu Meiniang said as if she died.


    For ordinary girls, who dares to face the empress Chang sun, but Wu Meiniang resolutely decided to go into the palace alone and apologize to the empress. People admire her pure courage.


    "The Mohist school gives you the bottom of this matter. As long as you don''t nod, no one can force you to marry." Merton solemnly promised.


    "Thank you, master!" Wu Mei Niang nodded with tears, bowed and turned away.


    Looking at the figure of Wu Meiniang leaving, Princess Changle said helplessly: "the reason why the palace persuades Meiniang is not that the child slave is my brother, but that the marriage fails. I''m afraid someone with a heart will over interpret Mohism."


    Merton remained unmoved and said, "if the Mohist school is as obsequious as Confucianism, it will not sink for thousands of years. Monogamy is the concept inherited by the Mohist School for thousands of years. Marriage is voluntary, which is won by you and me. It is natural for her to maintain this marriage law as my disciple. This is her destiny and struggle against it."


    This time, it was not only Wu Meiniang''s challenge to imperial power, but also the conflict between Mohist ideas and imperial power.


    The second day was the day when the king of Jin chose his concubine


    The whole harem was a sensation. His Highness the king of Jin was the direct son of the eldest grandson queen and the beloved prince, not to mention that his Highness the king of Jin still had a chance to succeed to the throne.


    In addition to the legitimate women sent by the Xiao family in Lanling and the Wang family in Taiyuan, almost all aristocratic families sent the legitimate women suitable for marriage in the family. For a moment, in the political palace, all the people gathered and competed for beauty. The most striking ones were Xiao Huier and Wang Qiang.


    "Congratulations, madam. The Xiao family in Lanling is the empress Xiao of the previous dynasty. The Xiao family is a famous empress Xiao. There are all beauties in the family. Xiao Huier is the leader of this generation. It is said that her appearance is not inferior to that of empress Xiao of the current Dynasty." Zheng Chonghua smiled in the legislative palace. When she was selected by the royal family in a similar scene, she can''t help feeling very much now.


    "Xiao Huier is indeed as beautiful as a flower, but Wang Qiang is slightly better than her in terms of family background, and her appearance is not inferior to her." a middle-aged lady said, she is the sister of Emperor Li Yuan, Princess Tongan.


    The eldest princess of Tong''an married the Taiyuan royal family and was Wang Qiang''s uncle and grandmother. This time, the royal family did not hesitate to invite the eldest princess of Tong''an to sit down in order to become the princess of Jin.


    Empress Chang sun nodded with a smile, but her heart was quite anxious. Seeing that the imperial concubine selection of the king of Jin was about to begin, but Princess Changle and Wu Meiniang had not yet appeared.


    "Where''s Changle?" the empress asked with a frown.


    "The maidservant has sent a maid to inform the long princess. It''s time to calculate." a maid replied.


    Tongan eldest princess is the first generation of eldest princess, and Changle is the contemporary eldest princess. If the second generation of eldest princess Pingyang had not died early, it would be a good story for the three generations of eldest princesses to live together.


    "Changle has done well these years. I''ve heard of it in Taiyuan."


    Princess Changle presided over the Red Cross Society. Both the government and the public are famous. The praise of Princess Tongan can be said to be well deserved.


    "The princess is not anxious. Princess Zheng Chonghua is afraid to advise the future Princess." said Zheng Chonghua. She supports Xiao Huier, while Princess Tongan is supporting Wang Qiang.


    The eldest princess of Tongan frowned and said, "what can I persuade you? Her Royal Highness the king of Jin likes her. It''s her blessing. The Wu family came from a humble background. She was lucky to join Changle as a martial mother. His Royal Highness the king of Jin is also the brother of Changle. Isn''t it a good thing to kiss each other?"


    Tongan''s eldest princess openly and secretly said that they would kiss each other. In fact, she implied that Wang Qiang and Li Zhi were also kiss each other and tried to win the throne of Princess of Jin for Wang Qiang.


    Zheng Chonghua chuckled, "the eldest princess doesn''t know. It''s not popular in Mohist school. It''s not necessary to kiss."


    Zheng Chonghua counterattacks the theory of "kiss on kiss", dissolves the advantages of Wang Qiang''s relatives and strives for opportunities for Xiao Huier.


    "Well, today is the day for the king of Jin to choose his concubine. Whoever the king of Jin likes, he will be the princess of Jin. Everything will be subject to the king''s opinion." empress Chang sun raised her eyebrows and said in a loud voice.


    "Dashan, young people now advocate voluntary marriage and don''t look up to our arranged marriage at that time." Princess Tong''an sighed and sneered in her heart. Ordinary people may get married voluntarily, but I''m afraid it won''t work in the royal family. Marriage is the eternal melody of the royal family.


    "See what your Highness the king of Jin means."


    In the Lizheng palace, all the beautiful women couldn''t help but rejoice. They said that as long as their Highness the king of Jin liked them, wouldn''t they also have the opportunity to become princesses of Jin.


    "Wishful thinking." Wang Qiang''s eyes turned slightly and knew the plans of these beautiful women. The most noble family in the world is Wuxing Qiwang. Men all over the world are proud to marry a woman with Wuxing Qiwang. How can these deep-rooted ideas change in a short time? Her only opponent is Xiao Huier.


    Xiao Huier''s heart moved slightly. Since the marriage was voluntarily implemented, men and women all over the world need to meet before marriage. During his brief contact with his Royal Highness the king of Jin, she obviously felt the hot eyes of Li Zhi, the king of Jin, looking at him.


    "The winner has not been decided yet." Xiao Huier smiled coquettishly and said in her heart.


    Suddenly, a hurried footsteps came, and a maid came forward to report.


    "Princess Changle wants to see you! No, a woman came to see you with Princess Changle''s token." the palace maid reported.


    "The woman holding the Changle token?" empress changsun felt a move in her heart and suddenly had a candidate in her heart.


    "Xuan!"


    With the order of empress Chang sun, everyone''s eyes focused on the main gate of the Lizheng hall. Soon, a figure of Miaoman appeared in front of everyone.


    "Ah!"


    However, when people saw this woman, they couldn''t help exclaiming. They saw that she was wearing bold clothes, with concave and convex set off by her transformed ink clothes. She was very different from the beautiful woman dressed in palace clothes. Her exquisite makeup had enchanting orange hair and different customs.


    "Flame red lips!"


    At the moment, a most appropriate word flashed in the hearts of all the women. Even Xiao Huier, who was secretly scolded as a fox by all the beautiful women, was not as good as this woman.


    "There are Hu girls in the draft?" many girls muttered in secret.


    "No! She is the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, Wu Meiniang!" Xiao Huier put away her charming expression and said with a calm face. The Wu Meiniang she saw was valiant and heroic, with a momentum of women not allowing men, while the Wu Meiniang in front of her was another extreme, seductive, dangerous, and mixed with all kinds of gas and quality, which makes people want to stop.


    "Why does she have red hair? She wasn''t before?" Wang Qiang didn''t dare to buy a channel. She was deeply educated by Confucian ethics. She couldn''t accept Wu Meiniang''s style.


    "What''s strange? The Taoist secret technique of hair dyeing can dye white hair black, and naturally it can also dye black hair red." Xiao Huier snorted coldly.


    "So it is?" the ladies suddenly looked at Wu Meiniang''s red hair, which was both despised and yearned. Such a hair color was really amazing.


    "Wu Meiniang, the daughter of the people, knocks at the empress." Wu Meiniang walks forward and bows to salute.


    "Betray the Scriptures and leave the way!"


    "Sensationalism."


    Zheng Chonghua and the eldest princess of Tong''an also couldn''t help shouting. No one thought that Wu Meiniang should be so bold to resist the royal family.


    Looking at Wu Meiniang''s coquettish appearance, empress changsun couldn''t help getting angry and asked, "if you want to annoy the palace in this rebellious way to give up the chance to enter the palace, I think your goal has been achieved."


    When the son of heaven was angry, millions of corpses fell, and once the eldest grandson queen was angry, the mountains and rivers were also pale, and the imperial concubines were frightened.


    "This wild girl usually depends on the love of Princess Changle. This time, she angered the queen and even Princess Changle can''t save you." Princess Tongan looked like watching a good play. Wu Meiniang lost her position as Princess of Jin, so Wang Qiang had the opportunity to take charge of the whole Princess of Jin.

 Chapter 1275

    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "the empress calmed down her anger. The people''s daughter had no choice but to show the empress the most real Mei Niang."


    "The most real you!" empress Chang sun frowned.


    Wu Meiniang Lang said, "when the people''s daughter was driven out of the Yingguo government at the age of 12, her family affection became the deepest thorn. At that time, Mei Niang vowed to control her fate in her own hands in this life, so that the humiliation of the Wu government will not be repeated."


    "Women can also control their own destiny!"


    In the legislative hall, there was silence. Some people marveled, some admired, and some sniffed.


    "Also a poor man," sighed Princess Tong''an.


    "However, Meiniang suffered misfortune and was also lucky. When Meiniang was driven out of the martial arts house, she met the Mohist master. Master taught me Mohist skills and Mohist ideas, which gave me the opportunity to control my own destiny. It was the Mohist school that gave me a new life, and I can''t betray the Mohist concept. Monogamy is the belief of the Mohist woman. As the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, I must take an example Otherwise, they will not only betray the Mohist concept, but also betray their once vows. "Wu Meiniang is sonorous and powerful.


    "Monogamy!"


    All the women present could not help but be touched by it. They were loyal to their husbands, and all of them did it. However, even if they were as expensive as empress Chang sun, they didn''t want to stick to the monogamy system, and even didn''t hesitate to wrong themselves to widely select the world''s beauties for Li Shimin.


    Domineering as Tongan''s eldest princess, she failed to stop her husband from taking concubines, not to mention the gorgeous Zheng Chonghua, who did not hesitate to give up his possible monogamous life in order to enter the palace as a concubine.


    The girls in the draft are even more sad. They have no choice at all. They are sent by the family, and they just compete for the position of one of the Jin princesses. They won''t even have a short monogamous life.


    In front of them, an ordinary woman talked about sticking to monogamy in front of the empress changsun, which not only made them ashamed, but also touched them.


    "In addition to the monogamy system, Meiniang also wants to decide her own life, and women can also do what they want to do. I improved the formula of longevity secret skill a long time ago, and have never dared to try it. This time, I finally made up my mind to catch my favorite hair color. It''s not intended to annoy the queen, but pure. I like it very much." Wu Meiniang stroked her orange hair, raised it slightly, and set off a wave of hair, which made a lot of women envy it. Even if they were very uncomfortable with the hair color of such Hu people, they had to admit that it had a different beauty.


    "Women eventually want to marry. Sometimes love is missed because of willfulness, which will be a pity for life." Zheng Chonghua advised deeply. It is reasonable to say that his Highness the king of Jin is affectionate and has a position. Even if Yunying is not married, she may not have a reason to refuse, but Wu Meiniang in front of her doesn''t drop water.


    "Meiniang is not unwilling to marry, but a young lady who doesn''t step out of the door. She is used to the unrestrained and free Mohist life, and the royal family is not suitable for Meiniang." Wu Meiniang was unmoved and insisted on her own opinion.


    "A free life."


    A group of beautiful women couldn''t help looking at this maverick rival in front of them with envy. From the moment they were born, they began to learn to be reasonable, needlework, and all kinds of etiquette, that is, one day they will become victims of the family again.


    "Do you know what you refused?" Princess Tong''an said sarcastically. In her opinion, Wu Meiniang is a little girl who doesn''t know the interests behind Princess Jin.


    Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "Meiniang knows that if I agree to become the princess of Jin, the Mohist family will have a closer relationship with the royal family, my mother will follow the trend and become the wife of the imperial order, and the Wu mansion can also become the royal family and relatives and embark on brilliance again. In the future, my children will be prosperous and rich all their lives, and the fate of all the people related to me will change."


    "Since I know you''re still......" Princess Tong''an looks angry and some hate iron.


    "However, the eldest princess forgot one thing. I became the princess of Jin. Everyone was very happy, but I was not happy. I was a bird out of difficulties and had grown into a flying eagle. Why should I return to the cage to be a canary? I won''t sacrifice my happiness for the benefit of my family." Wu Meiniang said solemnly.


    The beautiful women could not help but be silent. They no longer competed for the joy of the princess of Jin. Once they were a noble family lady, but now they have become the victims of the family.


    The eldest princess of Tong''an changed her face. She thought that she was not the victim of the marriage. Now she became angry and said, "don''t you want to repay the kindness of master mohou and the upbringing of her parents'' Wu family?"


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "the Wu family has already cut me off. The best way for Mei Niang to repay her teacher''s kindness is to stay in the Mohist School and carry forward her mother''s upbringing. Mei Niang has started raising this family since she joined the Mohist school at the age of 12."


    Tongan eldest princess was not discouraged. If she was an ordinary woman, she would have obeyed. Wu Meiniang was so independent and self-improvement. They didn''t have a way to handle her at all.


    "You don''t want to marry into the king''s house of Jin, but you are angry to revenge the Wu family." empress Chang sun suddenly asked.


    Suddenly everyone was quiet. It seems that it is really possible.


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "of course not. The Wu family is no matter how mean they are. After all, they have raised me. Mei Niang will not retaliate against him with her life''s happiness."


    "Have you ever had someone else in your heart?" the eldest sun queen asked again.


    The whole audience suddenly breathed. This problem was extremely fatal. Zheng Chonghua was even more embarrassed. Before she entered the palace, she first had an engagement with Lu Shuang and secretly loved the Mexican family. Empress Chang sun''s words were like beating her.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "Mei Niang has always been careless and has never had any trouble with any man."


    "Since there is none, the palace needs a reasonable explanation, otherwise you need to know the end of disobeying the royal family." empress Chang Sun said coldly. King Li Zhi of Jin is her favorite child. She can tolerate Wu Meiniang''s rebellion, and can''t let King Li Zhi of Jin stop repeating the mistakes of Chang sun Chong.


    "For freedom!" Wu Meiniang said word by word.


    "Freedom?" suddenly everyone looked at Wu Meiniang with the eyes of a fool. Everyone thought that Wu Meiniang would find some righteous reasons, but they didn''t think it was this absurd reason.


    "In this world, we women are naturally dependent on men. Men are strong and women are weak, and men are superior to women. Men have three wives and four concubines, and women can only get a little love. Striving for favor is also said to be good and jealous. Women have no freedom to go out, go to school, marry, and decide their own destiny. Now Wu Meiniang has the freedom to decide her own destiny If you are free, you will not allow yourself to lose this freedom. "Wu Meiniang said proudly.


    There was silence in the legislative palace, and all the women were deeply moved. They once longed for the outside world. However, the reality seemed that they were trapped by an invisible high wall, and now the women in front of them realized their elusive freedom.


    "Is it worth it?" Zheng Chonghua murmured. She once asked herself, but now she is addicted to power and doubts the decisions she has made.


    "I was also very confused. I didn''t strengthen my faith until I accidentally saw a poem by master." Wu Meiniang said in a loud voice.


    "The poem of mohou." Zheng Chonghua smelled the speech, and then he had some look in his eyes.


    "Life is precious, and love is more expensive. If it is freedom, both can be thrown away."


    Wu Meiniang''s voice sounded like a thunder in the legislative palace.

 Chapter 1276

    In the legislative palace,


    The girls had different thoughts. The maidens who did not enter the palace scoffed at Wu Meiniang''s words and secretly ridiculed Wu Meiniang''s ignorance. They thought Wu Meiniang''s wild words would certainly offend empress Chang sun and condemn her. This time, Wu Meiniang must be doomed.


    However, what they don''t know is that Zheng Chonghua, who has entered the palace, has empathized with Wu Meiniang''s words. Even empress Chang sun, who is in the position of queen, has a deep feeling for Wu Meiniang''s words for a long time.


    The whole legislative hall was silent. After a long time, empress Chang sun breathed a sigh and said, "I haven''t seen such an interesting little girl for a long time."


    "This woman is rebellious, speaks wildly, disobeys the empress, and someone will press down and severely punish me to shake up the majesty of the royal family." the eldest princess of Tong''an said angrily.


    She is the first eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty. She is usually proud of the royal family and maintains the dignity of the royal family everywhere. In front of her, she has to abide by more rules than in the harem. At the moment, it is a great shame for her to see Wu Meiniang dare to refuse the royal family. Naturally, she will not let Wu Meiniang go.


    "The princess is not haughty, but this woman is arrogant, but after all, she is an apprentice of her royal highness. She does not look at the Buddhist monk and looks at the Buddha, but also asks the princess to hold her hand." Zheng Chonghua answered. Perhaps she wanted to block the eldest princess, or Wu Meiniang''s words touched her. Zheng Chonghua objected.


    The eldest princess of Tongan''s face froze. She was a former eldest princess with only a higher generation. In terms of power and status, she could not compare with the contemporary eldest princess Changle. Wu Meiniang had followed Changle for many years and had long been regarded as her own. If she punished Wu Meiniang, she would certainly offend Princess Changle. You know, Wu Meiniang came into the palace with the token of Princess Changle.


    Empress Chang sun waved to stop the open and secret struggle between them. Unexpectedly, she was not angry, but shook her head and said, "freedom, where there is absolute freedom in this world, women are destined to depend on men. Since you want freedom, this palace will give you freedom, and this marriage is over."


    "Empress, don''t offend the royal family. If you don''t punish her severely, what''s the face of the royal family!" the eldest princess of Tong''an said reluctantly. Wu Meiniang is Li Zhi''s sweetheart. If you can''t straighten her down at one time, she will become Wang Qiang''s heart in the future.


    Empress Chang sun waved her hand and said, "the marriage law of the Tang Dynasty stipulates that both men and women marry voluntarily. Now that one party is unwilling, the natural marriage contract is invalid. Can our royal family still rob the people''s women? Come and give Yang''s marriage certificate back to Wu Meiniang."


    Soon, a palace maid handed Wu Meiniang a red wedding letter in her hand.


    "Thank you for your help. Meiniang will never forget!" Wu Meiniang bowed down in the tunnel.


    "However, the palace would also like to remind you that the royal family is not a place where you want to come and go. Since you go out of the palace, you will never have a chance to enter the palace in the future, otherwise......" empress Chang sun knocked. Since Wu Meiniang rejected the throne of Princess of Jin today, you can''t have any involvement with King Li Zhi in the future.


    Wang Qiang''s face was happy. She knew that empress Chang sun was beating Wu Meiniang. Even if Wu Meiniang repented and wanted to marry King Li Zhi of Jin in the future, it was impossible. It was a great help to her.


    "Meiniang understands, Meiniang is leaving!" Wu Meiniang said.


    Until Wu Meiniang''s figure disappeared outside the Lizheng hall, the whole imperial concubine selection scene was still depressed. Even if Xiao Huier and Wang Qiang were elected Princess of Jin at the same time, there was no expected joy.


    Did they really win the throne of Princess Jin? No, maybe they will lose more.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Come out!"


    "Wu Meiniang came out!"


    Today, Japan is the day for the king of Jin to choose a concubine. The whole imperial palace is in full readiness. When a red haired Wu Meiniang enters the Imperial Palace, the whole harem can''t help but be a sensation. They all think that Wu Meiniang is so bold that she will certainly offend the empress changsun and punish her.


    But when they saw Wu Meiniang coming out of the legislative palace intact, everyone couldn''t help but be in an uproar. The queen was so generous and forgave such a rebellious Wu Meiniang.


    "Wu Meiniang came out just after the imperial concubine selection of the king of Jin. Could it be......" a palace maid was surprised and guessed.


    There was another uproar in the palace, and the outcome was already obvious. Wu Meiniang not only disobeyed the queen, but also refused the throne of Princess Jin, and withdrew from the legislative palace. What a miracle.


    At the moment, the maids of the harem are full of awe for the maverick Wu Meiniang in front of them. The woman who can do these three points has never appeared in the harem. You know, although the external rumors are very good, the empress changsun is full of words in the harem, and no one dares to violate her will.


    Soon, more news came from the legislative palace, and a short poem came, which directly penetrated the hearts of the women in the harem.


    "Life is precious, and love is more expensive. If it is freedom, both can be thrown away."


    The palace maids and concubines all burst into tears when they heard this poem.


    To outsiders, the imperial palace is a treasure of wealth, clothing and food, and a supreme honor. To them, it is a cage. In the harem, beautiful women and talents disappear silently every year. Their lives can be said to be precarious. If they don''t pay attention, they will lose their jade. More palace maids waste their youth in the deep palace all their life in order to get a little love, Finally, he became a bird in a cage.


    The place where there is no freedom is the Imperial City, but now in this cage, there is a young eagle flying freely in the sky,


    Such a contrast eclipses the most noble place in the world.


    Once upon a time, freedom was the most despised for them, but now it has become the most precious and unreachable wealth. What imperial power, wealth and favor are not worth mentioning in front of freedom.


    Wu Meiniang walked in the Imperial City, her heart was extremely depressed, and her pace was involuntarily accelerated. She wanted to get out of the cage like harem as soon as possible.


    Walking, Wu Meiniang''s pace became faster and faster. Finally, she ran directly. Her vigorous figure kept jumping. The orange hair waves on her head floated in the wind and squandered her freedom wantonly, forming a huge contrast with the repressed imperial city.


    On leaving the Imperial City, Wu Meiniang suddenly looked back. She didn''t smile back. She was beautiful and colorless in the six palaces, but she had the freedom to make the whole imperial concubines envy and envy. She didn''t enter the Imperial Palace, but she left a legend in the imperial palace.


    She is presumptuous and defiant of imperial power.


    She is arrogant by nature and refuses to serve with others.


    She was ambitious and refused to marry into the royal family.


    She pursues freedom, even at the expense of life and love.


    She is a wonderful woman in the world, Wu Meiniang, and the light of freedom for all women in the world.


    The statue of liberty of the Tang Dynasty.

 Chapter 1277

    "...... If it is freedom, both can be thrown!"


    After Wu Meiniang left the palace, the scene of Princess Jin''s draft soon spread in Chang''an city. The news was that King Li Zhi was stunned there.


    "I didn''t expect Mei Niang to be so strong. Is it worth it for the so-called freedom?" Li Zhi said in his heart.


    The Meiniang who made him unwilling still refused the throne of Princess Jin;


    What pleased him was that the reason why Meiniang refused was not to fall in love with others, but for freedom;


    What made him proud was that the woman he fell in love with was so unique;


    What made him lose was that he was afraid of losing such an elf like woman.


    Looking at the complicated Li Zhi on her face, empress Chang sun sighed and said, "do you remember that when you were young, you accidentally caught a bird, loved it very much, and locked her in a cage. However, the bird didn''t eat or drink until she died. Today''s Wu Meiniang is like this wild bird. It''s impossible to be trapped in the imperial palace. Forcing her to stay will only lead to a big mistake."


    "I understand," Li Zhi nodded.


    This result has been expected by him. After all, he has gained the support of the leaders of the two aristocratic families in the South and the north. Coupled with his entanglement with Wu Meiniang, at least the Mohist forces can remain neutral in the future.


    "Just understand. Princess Xiao and Princess Xiao are good girls. Now that they have joined Princess Jin, treat them well." empress Chang sun changed the topic. In her opinion, with Xiao Huier and Wang Qiang, Li Zhi should soon forget Wu Meiniang.


    However, what empress Chang sun doesn''t know is that the stimulation of this event to Li Zhi can never be erased. Once he was born, he was the most noble prince. As long as he wanted, he couldn''t get anything and never felt lost. Now she has lost her sweetheart, Wu Meiniang.


    "I lost Wu Meiniang because I was just a prince. I could only give Meiniang a cage version of the Jin palace. If I became the emperor, I could give Meiniang the whole Tang Dynasty. Even if Meiniang was a female eagle, he could fly in the sky of the Tang Dynasty." Li Zhi secretly said that his rebellious psychology had reached the extreme at the moment, which was the first time in his life, The more he wants to make up for this regret.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "Princess highness, you can''t go out, the state''s public order, now is a special period, no one can go out without any reason." in the long sun house, the elder sun keeper stopped the Gaoyang Princess Road to go out.


    "Why? I don''t even have the freedom to go out." Princess Gaoyang snorted coldly.


    "Of course not, but the future of the queen is uncertain, and the Royal Highness is asked to act in a low way."


    "Keep a low profile, my princess still needs to keep a low profile. If she keeps a low profile, everyone will dare to bully the royal family. However, although Wu Meiniang is arrogant, she has done one thing to lose her temper with the palace, that is, she has not entered the cage in the Palace. Life is precious, and love is more expensive. If she is not free, she can throw away both. Since my princess is free, she will not Be bound by anyone again, "Princess Gaoyang said wantonly.


    In order to get out of the palace, she sacrificed her love and married a long sun Chong she didn''t like. The freedom she paid so much for naturally needs to be enjoyed more.


    Say it! Princess Gaoyang ignored changsun Wuji''s ban and changsun Chong''s situation, went out of changsun''s house in a big way and squandered her freedom wantonly. However, she did not know that what Wu Meiniang adhered to was freedom with a bottom line, and what she squandered was unrestrained freedom.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    "What! Meiniang, that dead girl turned down Princess Jin."


    In the Wu mansion, Wu yuanshuang was surprised and said that he didn''t expect Wu Meiniang to have such great courage to refuse the royal family.


    In this way, the Wu family''s plan to cling to the king of Jin not only went bankrupt, but also may have hated the king of Jin. It''s simply stealing chickens instead of eating rice.


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Wu. Although Wu Meiniang refused the royal family, his Highness the king of Jin can''t feel the sincerity of Mr. Wu. After all, the king of Jin can''t refuse any help. As long as there is this line, the Ziqian family may not have a chance." Yin and Yang shook his head.


    Wu yuanshuang nodded. Wu Meiniang retreated from the palace. There was still hope for this. However, he regretted that Wu Meiniang did not become the princess of Jin. I''m afraid his status in the king''s house of Jin would be greatly reduced in the future, which made him a little unwilling.


    Not only is Wu yuanshuang unwilling, but Yin and Yang Zi are also unwilling. In his plan, whether Wu Meiniang is forced into the palace or Wu Meiniang is severely punished by the royal family, the Mohists will enter the game, but he never thought that Wu Meiniang would return safely because of a poem.


    "Master, what should we do now?"


    After leaving the martial arts mansion, the little mage of Yin-Yang family frowned and said that they finally found the son of Qi Yun who could break the situation. After some planning, the son of Qi Yun withdrew all over, which made him feel at a loss.


    "Freedom, we are in the cage of heaven and earth, how can we be free." Yin and Yang sniffed.


    The little mage was surprised and said, "master means that Wu Meiniang is still in master''s plan."


    Yin and Yang shook her head and said, "Wu Meiniang''s ability to retreat is indeed beyond the teacher''s expectation. However, it is impossible for the Mohist school to jump out of the Bureau. It is just to master some initiatives. Whether Wu Meiniang enters the king''s palace or not, the Mohist school is already in the Bureau."


    Today''s Mohist school is becoming stronger and stronger. How can all forces in the court ignore Mohist school? Although Wu Meiniang retreats, Mohist school can''t retreat. Yin and Yang families may not have the opportunity to reap the luck of Mohist school.


    "Disciple, one thing is unknown. Even the Wang family in Taiyuan and the Xiao family in Lanling saw the delicate position of King Li Zhi of Jin. I believe that the Mohist family could not see it. The Mohist family took the initiative to use a poem to help Wu Meiniang get out of trouble, just for Wu Meiniang''s marriage. Is it worth hating the royal family?" the yin-yang family little mage wondered.


    "The Mo family has always acted in an unrestrained manner, and others can''t guess. Moreover, they continue to reverse Yin and Yang, and even being a teacher is confused." Yin and yang are afraid.


    "Let''s just forget it! For Wu Meiniang''s sake, my yin-yang family spent a hundred years of Qi and fortune to layout." the little master of the yin-yang family was unwilling to say that the yin-yang family has always been based on Yang, while Wu Meiniang is a woman. It took more than a hundred years of Qi and fortune for the yin-yang family to reverse yin-yang, which is worthy of completing the layout.


    Yin Yang Zi snorted coldly, "of course not. Although Wu Meiniang didn''t enter the game, her task has been completed. She has successfully aroused the ambition of the king of Jin. Once the layout of Yin Yang family starts, it is doomed to stop. The civil strife in Datang will come one day. That''s when the Yin Yang family reaps their luck."


    "Master is clever!" the little mage said unexpectedly.


    "But this may not have sequelae, but I''m afraid Chang''an city will be full of yin and Yang in the future." Yin and Yang son smiled inexplicably.


    "Yin flourishes and Yang declines, isn''t that the Tang Dynasty? Isn''t it a mess?" the little mage was surprised.


    Yin and Yang sneered: "it''s best to mess up, then the Yin and Yang family can make the next layout. With the help of Wu Meiniang''s event and the heat of this free poem, as a teacher, we should reach the destiny and give a prosperous proverb."


    "Prophecies, master, are cautious. Since ancient times, prophecies have been made in troubled times. Now it is the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty. The yin-yang family makes prophecies in the prosperous age. The yin-yang family acts against the sky. If it fails, I''m afraid it will be eaten back!" the little mage said with a frightened face.


    Yin and Yang Zi said with a frozen face: "if it was a normal era, being a teacher would not go against the sky. Now, the Mohist school has reversed Yin and Yang, and there are signs of yin and Yang rising and falling in the Tang Dynasty. Now, the Yin and Yang family is taking advantage of the trend. With the help of the overwhelming Qi of the Mohist school, yin and Yang rising and Yang falling, they spell together the Qi of the Yin and Yang family for 500 years to produce a prosperous prophecy."


    Yin Yang Zi''s heart surges. Once this prophecy comes out, he will create the history of Yin Yang family and initiate the prosperous prophecy.


    The little mage of Yin-Yang family was stunned. He didn''t expect that master''s plan was to use the Qi of Mohism. You know, yin-yang family was born to deal with Mohism, but he didn''t expect to cooperate with Mohism in a disguised form.


    However, when the little mage of yin and Yang family thought carefully, it may not be impossible for this matter to succeed. The combination of the Qi luck of the Mohist School and the Yin and Yang family can promote the Yun Dao of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Please give me a prophecy, master."


    Yin and Yang Zi said word by word: "female - Lord - Chang."

 Chapter 1278

    "Life is precious, love is more expensive, if it is freedom, both can be thrown away!" there are many girls reading free poems and dyeing their hair in the streets of Chang''an city. They exaggerate, do not avoid the advice of others, and still go their own way.


    There is no doubt that these women have regarded Wu Meiniang as an idol and madly imitated Wu Meiniang''s behavior.


    For a while, women''s rights in Chang''an City soared.


    "Master, I''m wrong!" Wu Meiniang knelt in front of the ancestors of the Mohist school, with a face of regret.


    "You''re wrong? You''re the goddess of liberty followed by the women of Chang''an city. Don''t you do what you want? How can you be wrong!" Merton laughed angrily.


    After Wu Meiniang refused the royal family, he and Princess Changle kept running to ease the relationship. Seeing that things had not subsided, Wu Meiniang unexpectedly made a moth again.


    "Shifu, it''s really none of my business. Since I came back from the palace, I''ve been thinking behind closed doors and never stepped out of the ink house." Wu Meiniang cried.


    Merton snorted coldly, "you''ve been thinking about it behind closed doors, but how did your new hair dyeing skills spread? Now in Chang''an City, red hair, blonde hair and yellow hair are rampant. It''s even more hateful that there are people who dye black hair white. It''s like a mob of demons. Now the Mohist school has been criticized by hundreds of schools, all thanks to you."


    Wu Meiniang couldn''t help being stunned. She didn''t expect such a big storm. She quickly explained: "master, it''s wrong for Meiniang. The new hair dyeing secret skill was jointly improved by Meiniang and Taoist priest Changsheng. Now Meiniang closes her door and thinks about it. It must be Taoist priest Changsheng who revealed the new hair dyeing secret skill."


    Merton didn''t believe at all: "don''t wrong Taoist priest Changsheng in order to escape responsibility."


    Taoist priest Changsheng had a bad reputation in the past, but he has changed his ways since the external pill was separated. He is addicted to alchemy and no longer acts recklessly.


    Wu Meiniang was worried and quickly explained: "At that time, when the apprentice improved his hair dyeing skills, Taoist priest Changsheng refused to share the formula with the apprentice, so he satirized Taoist priest Changsheng that he could not do business. It is true that there is a market for the elderly to dye their hair black, but the elderly have always been frugal and refused to spend more money. In this way, the business will not be very good. If you focus on the young people, you can dye their hair into a more beautiful hair color, which will surely advance day by day Doujin, especially women, did not hesitate money to love beauty. Taoist priest Changsheng agreed to cooperate with his disciples. "


    Merton was speechless. He had to admire Meiniang''s eyes. He saw a broader market for hair dyeing skills and moved Taoist priest Changsheng.


    "So, waidan has no money again." Merton frowned. I''m afraid the biggest reason why waidan can be persuaded by Wu Meiniang is lack of money. These alchemy maniacs really consume too much money. It didn''t take long before the universal reward for restoring iron secret skills of Mohism was paid to them.


    "It''s said that it won''t last for a few months. I want to find an apprentice to sell some messy inventions, but the apprentice only likes the secret skill of hair dyeing. Now it seems that Taoist priest Changsheng must have cheated the apprentice in order to make money." Wu Meiniang truthfully explained.


    This time, it must be Taoist priest Changsheng, with the help of Wu Meiniang''s momentum, wantonly promoted the new hair dyeing secret skills and made huge profits, but he gave Wu Meiniang a hole.


    "Wai Dan''s pulse is just in the eye of money." Merton immediately gnashed his teeth and said, "by the way, you account for several percent."


    Wu Mei Niang nodded deeply and blurted out, "twenty percent!"


    "Disciple is wrong!"


    Wu Meiniang knew she had made a mistake and quickly bowed her head to apologize.


    "Donate 20% of the money and use your clever skills in the future," said Merton, who hated iron and steel.


    "Yes, master!" Wu Meiniang could not help sighing, and her hard won pocket money was gone again.


    "Hou ye, something bad happened." suddenly, Fu Bo came in a hurry and finally saved Wu Meiniang from fire and water.


    "What''s the matter?" Merton asked.


    Fubo said anxiously, "now there is a prophecy in Chang''an City, which is related to Meiniang."


    "Prophecy?" Merton raised his eyebrows. With Mohist rationality, how can he believe the so-called prophecy.


    Fu Bo nodded his head and said, "yes, according to the legend of Chang''an City, this is a prophecy of the prosperous age, named: nvzhuchang."


    "Lady Chang!"


    Merton''s eyes shrunk and his hair stood up.


    Fubo and Wu Meiniang looked at Merton in surprise. They didn''t expect that Merton had such a great response to a prophecy. However, they didn''t know that Merton was thunderous about this prophecy in his previous life, let alone that it was his disciple Wu Meiniang who was involved in this prophecy.


    There are countless prophecies in history, but only a few are most famous. The first one is Hu ye, who died in the late Qin Dynasty. The second one is the last year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when heaven should die, the yellow sky should stand, the year is Jiazi and the world is auspicious, there broke out a massive yellow scarf army uprising. In addition, there is a famous prophecy, that is, the female Lord Chang, who predicted the woman''s name The emperor.


    He once thought that he had changed Wu Meiniang''s fate and would not appear the prophecy of female Lord Chang, but he didn''t expect that history would repeat itself, which made him have to be vigilant.


    "Are you sure it''s the hostess Chang!" Merton asked.


    Fubo nodded and said, "sure, now the whole Chang''an city is spreading wildly. Some people understand the prophecy that only women in the family can prosper. The women in Chang''an City take Wu Meiniang as an example and Mo Nu as an example."


    All the Mexican women have attended school, and even if they marry, they will take part in work. In addition, with the backing of the Mojia village, most of their childhood lives are good. With the economic power, the Mexican women naturally have more voice at home, and even many women are in charge of the family, which is very consistent with the prophecy of the female leader Chang.


    In particular, Wu Meiniang, the great elder martial sister of the Mohist school, proved that women are not necessarily inferior to men with the achievements of women, but also brought into full play the prophecy of female Lord Chang with the pride of rejecting imperial power.


    "No wonder, no wonder..." Merton looked around at what had happened during this period of time and linked them one by one. Then he suddenly realized that there was an invisible hand guiding him.


    "What did Shifu find?" Wu Meiniang asked with a frown.


    Merton shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "I''m afraid your end now is the layout of the people behind this prophecy. When he saw you jump out of the game, he had this prophecy. Think carefully. Is all the situation suddenly out of control?"


    Wu Meiniang frowned and thought carefully, and her heart was burning with anger. All along, she and Li Zhi had not broken through, and there were still many opportunities to ease, but suddenly, the situation turned sharply downward, and she had reached the Jedi who forced her into the king''s house of Jin.


    Fortunately, she kept her hand and successfully broke the game with master''s free poetry. However, the other party had not let him go, and even issued another prophecy to kill him.


    "I dare to calculate Miss Ben. I''d like to see who is so bold." Wu Meiniang''s English eyebrow stood up. She didn''t expect that someone would dare to calculate on her head. Her current situation is that she is sitting like a needle, and someone is adding fuel to the fire.


    "Prophecies have emerged from the top of history. Some are ghosts made by competitors, the nonsense of lunatic people, the conspiracy of people with ulterior motives, or pretentious, which is known as peeping into the secret of heaven. Among them, the most powerful is the yin-yang family. They spread prophecies purposefully and pertinently, and then make careful layout to achieve their goals." Merton sighed.


    "Yin Yang family? Is it Yin Yang family?" Wu Meiniang and Fu Bo exclaimed at the same time. Naturally, they had heard of this mysterious hundred schools of thought.


    "It''s impossible for ordinary people to broadcast such prophecies. I''m afraid it''s not Yin and Yang school, and there are also people who are proficient in the study of yin and Yang." Merton took a deep breath: "Since he took the initiative to throw out the prophecy and let it spread widely among the people, he must hide in the dark and disappear without a trace. He will not appear for the next layout until the prophecy ferments to a certain extent. Now the most important thing is to find this person so that the situation will not continue to deteriorate."


    Fubo frowned and said, "as the young master said, this man must be invisible. Chang''an City has a large population and people come and go. I''m afraid it''s even more difficult to find a stranger."


    Merton turned to Wu Meiniang, who knelt in front of the ancestors of the Mohist school, and said, "the person who tied the bell still needs to untie the bell. Since this matter starts with Meiniang, let Meiniang finish it."


    "Yes!" Wu Meiniang replied solemnly.

 Chapter 1279

    "Drive!"


    On the street of Chang''an City, Wu Meiniang''s flaming red lips galloped to Wu''s house.


    After her reply, she found that Wu yuanshuang''s sudden intervention was the most suspicious in her concubine selection storm. According to her understanding of Wu yuanshuang, the Ziqian family had no profit and couldn''t get up early. If no one provoked him, he didn''t dare to provoke himself. I think that person must collude with Wu yuanshuang to calculate himself.


    "Dong!"


    Wu Meiniang kicked open the door of Wu mansion and broke in again.


    "Second young lady, don''t be angry. The Lord is really not at home." the housekeeper of Wu mansion pleaded. Wu Meiniang beat her to the door twice in a few days. Wu mansion''s face was greatly lost, but it was wrong, so he couldn''t help Wu Meiniang.


    Wu Mei Niang sneered and said, "I''m not looking for the shrinking turtle today, but for you."


    The housekeeper of the Wu mansion flopped and knelt on the ground and said, "spare your life, miss. I didn''t know Mount Tai and drove the second miss out of the Wu mansion, but I was forced to be helpless by the order of the young master. Miss, spare my life!"


    "If you want me to spare you, you have to say who colluded with Wu yuanshuang and framed me?" Wu Meiniang went straight into the way.


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion was in a panic and quickly denied: "there is no one. There are no visitors in Wu mansion recently."


    Wu Meiniang sneered: "so, you want to resist all your sins for Wu yuanshuang. You know my temper. If Mei Niang can''t get out of this tone, there will be no peace in the Wu house."


    Wu Meiniang knows that the housekeeper of Wu mansion is Wu yuanshuang''s confidant. Anyone who comes to Wu mansion can''t hide from the housekeeper of Wu mansion. He must know the truth.


    The housekeeper of Wu mansion could not help sighing. Naturally, he knew the consequences of angering Wu Meiniang and would not stop until he reached his goal. After all, Wu yuanshuang could not hide all the time. I''m afraid it can''t be done well if he didn''t hand over a scapegoat.


    "It''s the elder Yin and Yang Zi. It''s this person who tricked the second young master, and the second young master was also out of good intentions." the housekeeper of the Wu family quickly confessed and picked up the Wu family by the way. Zi Qian''s family is cold and thin, so naturally he refused to carry the pot for others.


    "Yin Yang son of Yin Yang family!" Wu Meiniang was shocked and didn''t dare to believe. She didn''t expect that it was the contemporary Yin Yang son of Yin Yang family who calculated her. No wonder she had little power to fight back.


    "Yes, it''s the yin-yang son. Otherwise, the martial arts house can''t avoid the young lady, and it won''t take the initiative to provoke the young lady." the steward of the martial arts house smiled bitterly.


    "Where is Yin and Yang now?" Wu Meiniang asked.


    The housekeeper of the Wu mansion shook his head and said, "master yin-yang Zi is haunted. It has always been master yin-yang Zi who took the initiative to contact the Wu mansion. I don''t know where this person is."


    Wu Meiniang frowned. Chang''an City has a large population and an endless stream of business trips. I''m afraid it''s even more difficult to find a stranger in the vast Chang''an city.


    Wu Meiniang carefully asked about yin-yang Zi''s appearance and dress, and immediately took it into account. Yin-yang Zi was used to taking Taoism as a cover, but others couldn''t find it. One person could do it, and it happened that she still had a debt to pay.


    "Taoist priest Changsheng, congratulations on getting rich!"


    In the xuandu temple, accompanied by a banter of congratulations, Wu Meiniang with strange hair on her head appeared in front of her eldest son.


    "It''s Meiniang, get rich together, get rich together!" Taoist priest Changsheng put away the account book in embarrassment and got up with enthusiasm on his face.


    Wu Mei Niang angrily sat down on a side and said, "Taoist priest, it''s too anxious. Isn''t it to bake Mei Niang on the fire?"


    Taoist priest Changsheng quickly comforted: "Meiniang, don''t blame me. I don''t want to take advantage of this tuyere to promote the new hair dyeing secret technology. After all, there are 20% of you here."


    Taoist priest Changsheng knew that what he did was not authentic, so he quickly explained.


    Wu Meiniang waved her hand in despair and said, "you''re always rich. Meiniang didn''t beat the fox and provoked a coquettish. These two percent have been taken away by her master and donated to the Red Cross. She''s been watched by the yin-yang family again."


    "Yin Yang family? Even Yin Yang family is out of the mountain!" Taoist Changsheng was surprised. He didn''t expect that even Yin Yang family was out of the mountain, but it''s reasonable to imagine. Now a hundred schools of thought contend in the Tang Dynasty, and the Yin Yang family that has been lurking is naturally unwilling to be lonely.


    "However, Meiniang fell into a storm this time, which is the layout of the contemporary yin-yang son of the yin-yang family. Meiniang finally jumped out of the game and was killed by the yin-yang son with prophecy. Martial uncle should decide for Meiniang!" Wu Meiniang complained to Taoist Changsheng.


    "NvZhu Chang!" Taoist priest Changsheng suddenly exclaimed.


    He didn''t agree with this prophecy at first, but when he heard that it was Yin and Yang Zi''s handwriting, he was established. As the leader of the external Dan vein of Taoism, he was thunderous about the means of yin and Yang Zi. Yin and Yang Zi turned their hands into clouds and covered their hands with rain in all dynasties. They were all experts who stirred the wind and cloud.


    "That''s right! If it''s not unexpected, this prophecy was done by Yin and Yang Zi. The purpose of Xiang Zhuang''s sword dance is to Peigong. Apparently, it''s to deal with Meiniang, but actually it''s to Mohism." Wu Meiniang said frankly.


    Changsheng Taoist priest nodded. Although the atmosphere of Datang was open, the status of women had not changed much. Even Princess Nanping married without saluting her mother-in-law, she was fiercely opposed by Wang Yu. In the end, she was not obediently compromised.


    The real change of women''s status is reflected in the Mohist village. First, Merton married Princess Changle and changed the marriage law of the Tang family. Then, there was the pre marital agreement of Mohist women and adhered to the monogamy system. In addition, the economic independence of Mohist women greatly increased the status of women.


    Once this trend has spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, once anything happens in the future, Mohism will certainly bear the brunt, which is simply taking Mohism as a target.


    "Yin and Yang families mostly live in seclusion as Taoists, and the poor Tao is somewhat thin in Taoism. As long as Yin and yang are hidden in the Taoist temple, they can certainly be found." Changsheng Taoist priest said.


    The reason why he agreed to help was that he was unjustifiable to Wu Meiniang and that the Taoist waidan had a close cooperation with the Mohist school. Naturally, he didn''t want anything to happen to the Mohist school.


    Taoist priest Changsheng really has a wide range of contacts in Taoism. It was soon found out that an alien Taoist temporarily lives in Cuihua palace, Chang''an. His appearance is quite similar to that of yin and Yang Zi.


    However, when Wu Meiniang took people to Cuihua palace, she threw herself into a void. Yin and Yang had said goodbye to Cuihua palace half a day ago. Obviously, Wu Meiniang''s next move had been expected.


    Outside Cuihua palace, a kind-hearted old man looked at Wu Meiniang who came out of Cuihua palace and couldn''t help laughing. In this world, it''s not the Mo family that will reverse Yin and Yang. The Yin and Yang family is one of the good players. Before the Yin and Yang family was exposed, he can act recklessly. Now he released the prophecy of the prosperous age, and the Yin and Yang family has been exposed, And he wants to reverse Yin and Yang and hide himself in the dark.


    When the prophecy slowly ferments to a certain time, that is his opportunity. Of course, this opportunity may be very long, maybe a year or two, or even ten or eight years. However, the yin-yang family can wait all the time. It is like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark and waiting for a fatal blow to its prey. This is the terrible thing of the yin-yang family.

 Chapter 1280

    "Master, if you can''t find Yin and Yang, please punish me!"


    In the Mo mansion, Wu Meiniang dropped her head and lost her airway. She ran around all day, but finally she was put together by Yin and Yang Zi.


    But Merton didn''t mean to say, "Yin and Yang family has always been haunted. If it is easy to be found, I''m afraid it''s already broken."


    Yin Yang family is famous for prophecy. If they easily reveal their whereabouts, they may have been beheaded by the imperial court many times.


    "But the Yin and Yang son has not been found, the prophecy in the prosperous age has become more and more intense, and the women''s behavior in Chang''an City has become more and more perverse. Chang''an City has formed a sign against Mohism." Fubo frowned.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the fact that yin and Yang have not been found doesn''t mean that Mohism can''t break the situation. A woman suddenly obtains great success, so she will be regarded as different, and even besieged. However, if countless women can achieve great achievements, the so-called female Lord Chang is just icing on the cake and is regarded as a common thing."


    "Is this possible?" Wu Meiniang did not dare to believe. Although she thought highly of herself, she knew that her success was very accidental. Without the help of Mohism, it was extremely difficult for her to achieve her present achievements.


    "Since you can succeed, other women can also succeed naturally. Next, we should fully support Chang''an women and let the female master Chang Chang not be a prophecy, but a fact. In this way, the so-called prophecy will naturally be defeated." Merton firmly said.


    "It''s all at master''s command." Wu Meiniang said solemnly.


    Merton clapped his hands and saw three women come in.


    "Shiniang, sister in purple and Gongsun girl." Wu Meiniang looked at the three people with a surprised look on her face. She didn''t expect that she would startle them at the same time. "


    Merton explained: "I''ll call you here to discuss this matter. If I want women in the world to be prosperous, I must set a perfect model for women in the world. This woman must be equal to men and make achievements no inferior to men with her daughter."


    "Why is this difficult? Although there are not many women who can spread the history in the history books, they are all female elites. In ancient times, there was empress dowager e, Empress Dowager Lu and Empress Dowager Dou. Recently, there was an aunt Princess Pingyang. All women are heroines in the army." Princess Changle is familiar with the history books and speaks like a treasure, especially when it comes to Princess Pingyang.


    Other women also nodded. These strange women are idols in their hearts.


    Merton shook his head and said, "these strange women are indeed heroines among women. However, most of them are of noble origin. The Mohists want to choose a woman of civilian origin who has made great achievements, so that all women in the world can be convinced."


    "This?" everyone frowned without a clue.


    "Zhaojun goes out of the fortress!" Wu Meiniang said carefully. Zhaojun also came from a poor family when he went out of the frontier. He made great contributions and was remembered by the world.


    Princess Changle shook her head and said, "not everyone in the world has Zhaojun''s beauty."


    Merton smiled knowingly and said, "I wonder if you have ever heard a folk song Mulan CI about things in the Wei, Jin, southern and Northern Dynasties."


    "Mulan CI?" the crowd was confused and looked at Merton.


    Merton realized that "Mulan Ci" was just a folk song. It was not widely praised until it was included in the collection of Yuefu Poems in later generations.


    "Is it Hua Mulan who joined the army for her father?" Princess Changle picked her eyebrows after reading the poetry.


    Merton nodded, took out a Book of poems and turned out Mulan''s words for everyone to circulate.


    After they circulated it, they were immediately awed and respected. Mulan was a civilian. She joined the army for her father, fought on the battlefield and made achievements. Finally, she did not miss power and resigned to return home. Hua Mulan is indeed the best candidate for the Mohist school.


    "Mulan CI is catchy, the story is wonderful, and it makes a man''s career as a woman. Once it is published in Ink magazine, it will certainly be sought after by thousands of people." Wu Meiniang praised it. Although she thinks highly of herself, she is convinced of Hua Mulan.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is not enough. Mulan CI is a poem. There are few women in the world who can read. If you want to be known faster, you need to find another way. Purple clothes. Here is the script of Hua Mulan written by the young master. You can draw it into a cartoon as soon as possible and print it with the ink journal."


    Merton said and handed Wu Meiniang a script. Ziyi was happy and quickly picked it up. You know, the script produced by the young master is all fine.


    "Miss Gongsun, the Mohists have one more thing to ask." Merton bowed.


    Gongsun Yue hurriedly got up and saluted: "please speak, Mr. mo. Gongsun Yue is taken in by the Mohist family and will do his best."


    Merton said positively, "Mo adapted a Mulan song according to Mulan Ci and asked Gongsun to sing it for her."


    Gongsun Yue solemnly took over a music score and solemnly said, "please rest assured, Mr. mo. once Gongsun Yue learns it, he will set off immediately and spread it all over the world."


    Gongsun Yue knew that transmitting Mulan was very important to Mohism, so she immediately decided to promote Mulan music in the whole Tang Dynasty.


    You know, it took nearly two years to promote the solution of thousands of worries last time. You can imagine how determined Gongsun Yue was.


    Merton waved his hand and said, "it''s not necessary. Mulan is also catchy. You just need to recruit some singers and teach them to sing. Now Datang has convenient transportation, and it won''t take a year or two."


    Gongsun Yue nodded, but with her character, I''m afraid she won''t be easily persuaded.


    "With Mulan Ci, Mulan painting and Mulan music, the story of Hua Mulan''s heroism will certainly spread all over the Tang Dynasty and inspire countless daughters of the Tang Dynasty to become independent. However, the situation of women is quite obstructed now. Please protect those women from some unfair treatment as a princess." Merton finally solemnly ordered Princess Changle.


    Princess Changle said proudly, "it''s natural. It''s not the prejudice of those men that makes it difficult for women to make achievements. The princess will naturally help us women."


    Merton nodded and said to Fubo: "from now on, all the industries of Mojia village should recruit a certain proportion of women, and the salary is the same as that of men. At the same time, Mojia village bank gives special care to the existing women headed businesses in Chang''an City and supports a group of female shopkeepers in the Tang Dynasty."


    Although Chang''an city is a patriarchal society, in Chang''an City, there are also a group of women struggling and living in the cracks. With the care of Mojia village, their situation will be greatly improved.


    "Yes, marquis!" Fubo wrote it down solemnly.


    "Master! What about me?" Wu Meiniang asked after Merton when she saw Merton''s order.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang, shook his head and said, "you are now in the forefront of the wave in Chang''an city. The only thing to do is to keep a low profile, but you are also an example of the younger generation of women in Chang''an City, but you can''t sink all the time. Being a teacher gives you a chance to prove yourself again and prove that you don''t rely only on the achievements of Mohist village, but on your ability."


    "Please tell me," Wu Meiniang said solemnly.


    "The Mohists have a cotton spinning workshop in Chang''an City, which was originally a project to be cut off. As a teacher, you need to lead the cotton spinning workshop to turn losses into profits, recruit female workers and lead them to become rich, so that the people of Chang''an can see what the real women are, not men." Merton said positively.


    "Yes!" Wu Meiniang said with high morale.


    Merton nodded with satisfaction. A Hua Mulan from history books and a Hua Mulan from the Tang Dynasty appeared in the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty at the same time, which will certainly produce an extremely wonderful reaction. The so-called female Lord Chang is no longer a prophecy, but a fact.

 Chapter 1281

    "Lady Chang!"


    When the prophecy of prosperity spread in Chang''an city was printed on the front page of Ink magazine, everyone couldn''t help taking a breath.


    Many people have different attitudes towards the prophecy. Some people are anxious to lose their popularity and are in panic. Others ignore it and don''t believe it at all. Some people pretend to be nothing, but secretly believe in it and eliminate dissidents. None of them has ever responded positively, while Mohism is the first time to make a breakthrough.


    "The Mohists are crazy. Other people avoid prophecy like snakes and scorpions. The Mohists even take the initiative to lean up. Isn''t this looking for death?"


    "It is said that as soon as the prophecy of the female leader Chang came out, the empress changsun immediately ordered the rear palace not to interfere in politics, and she lived in seclusion in the imperial palace."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People taboo Mo Shen''s way one after another.


    Others disagreed and sneered: "It''s just a prophecy. What''s said in the ink magazine is very true. The so-called prophecy is just a far fetched opinion of future generations. The so-called" although there are three families in Chu, the death of Qin will be Chu ", which is just a slogan for the Duke of Southern Chu to encourage the men of Chu to take revenge. In addition, there is the division of the first emperor''s death from the land. This year''s death of ZuLong is just a curse of the people of the six countries who hate Qin Shihuang."


    "In the northern and Southern Dynasties, prophecy was used to frame the conspiracy of political enemies at the same time. It was just an unnecessary charge. I''m afraid the so-called female Lord Chang was the same."


    You know, the whole Tang Dynasty is dominated by Mohist women, and Chang, the female leader all over Chang''an City, is obviously coming for Mohism. There are many people of insight in Chang''an City, and it is easy to see the goal of this prophecy.


    In a restaurant, yin-yang Zi''s master and apprentice, who turned into a business trip, had a dignified face. He had imagined many ways to deal with Mohist Zi, either to write a memorial to himself, or to ignore it, or to restrain Mohist women. No matter which kind, he would fall in the trap of Yin-Yang Zi. But he didn''t expect that Mohist Zi would discuss it openly, which surprised him.


    "Master, what should we do now?" the little mage frowned. The so-called prophecy can be lethal only if it is fermented in the dark and imperceptibly. However, the Mohist Zi discussed it publicly. The Yin and Yang family''s Yin moves have nowhere to be implemented.


    "It''s worthy of being a Mohist. She has a bit of courage. However, all women in the world keep their own ways. Only Mohist women are independent. How can people think about it? Mohist''s move is just drinking poison to quench thirst and can''t break the prophecy of being a teacher." Yin and Yang coldly hummed.


    "We all underestimated the Mohist family. The Mohist family was not ready to crack the female Lord Chang prophecy, but to fulfill the female Lord Chang prophecy." suddenly a diner pointed to the Mohist magazine and exclaimed.


    "The prophecy has been fulfilled!" they exclaimed. They quickly looked down and found that the ink magazine once again cited the death of Qin as an example.


    Hu ye, the one who died in Qin, was the prophecy made by the Yin and Yang family according to the situation of Qin. At that time, the six countries were dead, and the biggest enemy of Qin Dynasty was the Huns in the north. After the death of Qin, the Huns almost destroyed the new Han Dynasty, and the subsequent crisis of five Hu and chaos in China is the best example. This article lists the glorious deeds of the Huns in moving westward. Everyone who sees them is cold and sweaty I didn''t expect that the Huns, who had retreated from the Tang Dynasty, had laid a territory no inferior to the Tang Dynasty in the barbarian land in the West. It can be seen how much the threat of the Huns was. In contrast, it was a coincidence that Hu ye, who later died of the Qin Dynasty, pointed to Hu Hai.


    "Some prophecies are gossip, while some prophecies are prophecies made according to the general situation of the world."


    For example, the prophecy in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty said: Heaven is dead and the yellow sky should be established. If the rulers of the Eastern Han Dynasty make a positive response, they may not have no chance to save the fate of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Tian Mou, editor in chief of the ink journal, hit the nail on the head.


    "So, mojiazi agrees with the prophecy of NvZhu Chang." a scholar looked at each other.


    "That''s natural. Otherwise, why do Mohists support Mohist women all the time." everyone nodded. All the time, Mohist women have high evaluation in Chang''an city. Most of them are literate and have skills. An Mohist woman is comparable to an adult male labor force, enough to support a family, not to mention Wu Meiniang, the leader of Mohist women, which makes many men ashamed.


    This is also the reason why many people flock to marry an ink woman even though the conditions for marrying an ink woman are very harsh. Marrying an ink woman means living a rich life, which is more exciting than any dowry in this era.


    "Throughout history, countless women have left moving stories in history books with their daughters, creating a feat that women do not let men do........"


    Yin and Yang Zi looked at the ink magazine, and the Mohists grandly introduced the women who have been famous in history, which made the men all over the world ashamed,


    "What is the purpose of Mohism?"


    Yin Yang Zi frowned. He and Mo Jiazi were in charge of the hundred schools at the same time, but when they really fought, he couldn''t understand Mo Jiazi''s moves at all.


    Until the end of the ink magazine, the Mohists finally showed their own big killer, the strange woman Hua Mulan.


    "Haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw haw


    Mulan disguised herself as a man, joined the army on behalf of her father, fought on the battlefield, returned to Korea triumphantly, made meritorious contributions, was granted the seal, resigned and returned home. The wonderful story, coupled with the well-known Mulan Ci, was grandly launched by Ink magazine and immediately conquered all scholars.


    "Hua Mulan is a wonderful woman, and she really deserves to be the mistress Chang." a diner sighed. He couldn''t help being attracted by the well-known Mulan words, but also conquered by Hua Mulan''s personality charm.


    "I''ve had the honor to read Mulan Ci, but it''s just a folk song. It doesn''t have such a wonderful style. In my opinion, this Mulan CI must have been polished by Mohist school to have today''s popular poems." a scholar suddenly exclaimed.


    Mulan Ci was born at the end of the Northern Dynasty. Later generations did not leave the author''s name. I''m afraid it was not so classic at the beginning. It was widely spread at the end of the Tang Dynasty after generations of praise and embellishment. Merton directly took out the complete version of later generations, which naturally surprised all directions.


    Everyone nodded. This Mulan poem is really different from the folk Mulan poem. In addition, the talent of Mohist Zi is well known, which makes everyone guess.


    "Can you act recklessly if you have talent?" the little mage of yin and Yang family gnashed his teeth.


    However, he really guessed right. Talented people can really act recklessly. Mulan CI is only the first step of Mohist school, followed by Mulan cartoon by a talented girl in purple


    Although it is only the first few paintings, the ancient and strange Hua Mulan is loved by everyone. In addition, there is a preview of the new song Mulan song by the famous Hua Kui Gongsun girl.


    "Li daitaojiang, Mozi is going to tout Hua Mulan to replace Wu Meiniang''s female dominant position." Yin and Yang looked at a series of operations of Mozi and finally had an insight into Mozi''s intention.


    The mojiazi wanted to fulfill the prophecy of the prosperous age, and at the same time, pick the female Lord Wu Meiniang out of the vortex of the storm. This means made Yin and Yang marvel at it.


    However, this is not all the means of Mohism. A new Mohism poem in the poetry column once again detonated the whole Chang''an city.


    "In the morning, it is Tian Shirang. In the evening, he ascends the emperor''s hall. The prime minister has no seed, and the man should be self-improvement."


    Most of the literate people in the world are men. Although the legend of Hua Mulan amazed the men, they were somewhat dissatisfied. A song by Mohist Zi, "men should strive for self-improvement", inspired the men to work hard at the same time.


    "Female Lord Chang, men should be self-improvement!"


    Yin and Yang Zi''s face was filled with surprise and anger. His proud prophecy of the prosperous age must be able to detonate the pattern of the rise of yin and the decline of Yang in the Mohist school, but the Mohist son did the opposite. He took the initiative to fulfill the female Lord Chang''s words, and even encouraged men all over the world to be self-improvement. In this way, yin and yang are balanced and his killing moves can be easily hidden.


    "Good means is worthy of being the son of the Mohist family who came into being in the millennium." Yin and Yang Zi''s face is as gloomy as water. Yin and Yang family has not failed. However, it is the first time that the prophecy of yin and Yang family has been cracked so easily.


    "Master, according to the rules of the yin-yang family, let''s leave Chang''an City and wait for the opportunity." the little mage of the yin-yang family advised.


    "No!" Yin and Yang shook his head and said, "no, if it''s the usual, I will naturally abide by the rules of the Yin and Yang family, but now the opponent of the Yin and Yang family is the Mo family. If I continue to retire, I''m afraid this prosperous prophecy will only be used by the Mo family in the end."


    "That!" the little mage of yin and Yang family wanted to persuade again.


    Yin and Yang stubbornly stopped the little mage''s persuasion and said in a cruel voice: "needless to say, I decided to stay in Chang''an city. The dispute between Mohism and Yin and Yang school is not over yet."

 Chapter 1282

    "In the morning, it is Tian Shirang. In the evening, he ascends the emperor''s hall. The prime minister has no seed, and the man should be self-improvement."


    In the palace, Li Shimin patted the ink magazine in his hand and silently recited the song that the man should be self-improvement. His eyes were colorful.


    The dynasty is Tian Shirang, and he ascends the emperor''s hall at dusk. This poem can be said to show the arrogance of scholars on paper. He works hard in the fields, but he has the talent to govern the country. Officials all over the world do not regard birth as their theory, but only act according to their talents. Overnight, they leap into the ranks of the dynasty hall and show their aspirations. This is simply an ideal Dynasty hall.


    However, Li Shimin is a little helpless about the current Imperial Hall. The Imperial Hall of the Tang Dynasty is controlled by the world aristocratic family represented by the five surnames and seven hopes. There is great resistance to be meritocratic.


    "Merton is indeed a peerless poet. When a man is self-improvement, this song can certainly inspire men all over the world to work hard and share their worries for the country." the eldest Sun Queen echoed.


    The Royal prophecy can be said to be taboo. After the prophecy of the female leader Chang came out, empress Chang sun, who knew Li Shimin''s character, immediately took the initiative to avoid suspicion and ordered the imperial palace to prohibit politics. She even kept silent about her nephew Chang sun Chong.


    But I didn''t expect that the Mexican family would respond publicly, take the initiative to fulfill the female Lord Chang without taboo, and encourage the man to improve himself, which eased the tense atmosphere in the harem.


    "A Hua Mulan woman disguised as a man, joined the army for her father, attacked Rouran in the north and defended the frontier. My good nephew came from an aristocratic family and held the best soldier in the world, and returned home on the grassland. He really answered this sentence. The dignified Qichi man can''t even compare with a weak girl. Since the man doesn''t improve himself, why should he blame the female leader Chang." Li Shimin snorted coldly.


    Compared with Hua Mulan, which is widely publicized by the Mohist school, Chang sun Chong is nothing. Hua Mulan came from an ordinary family, and Chang sun rushed out of an aristocratic family; General Hua Mulan died in a hundred battles, the strong man returned ten years ago, and the eldest sun rushed to abandon the army and fled, greedy for life and afraid of death; Hua Mulan doesn''t love wealth. She resigns from office and returns home. Her eldest son is greedy and aggressive. Hua Mulan joins the army for her father and shares her worries for her father. After her eldest son rushes out, her eldest son Wuji runs around. How can he hide it from Li Shimin.


    Originally, Li Shimin was very dissatisfied with Chang sun Chong. Now he compares Hua Mulan with him. It''s a difference between heaven and earth. It''s not even a woman. Li Shimin was immediately disappointed.


    "Chong''er has let his majesty down. The palace is willing to be punished." empress Chang Sun said with a ashamed face.


    Li Shimin shook his head and said, "this has nothing to do with you. No one can imagine that Chang sun Chong was so useless. I thought that when I started the army in Taiyuan, the three younger sisters responded in Chang''an. With their meager strength, they laid the name of the women''s army, which frightened the enemy. There was Hua Mulan in front and Pingyang Lord in the back. Women may not be able to make a great achievement."


    "Your Majesty is careful. Although prophecies are not believed, they have to be prevented." empress changsun quickly admonished. Although prophecies are rumors most of the time, they will also cause great damage once used by intentional people. The yellow scarf army uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty is the best example.


    Li Shimin smiled and said, "the so-called female master Chang is just the layout of the yin-yang school against the Mohist school. The Queen really thinks that a woman can threaten the imperial power. I''d like to send some Hua Mulan to the hall to share my worries for me! But Merton didn''t disappoint me. He even openly responded to the prophecy."


    Li Shimin is the emperor who founded the country and fought the world. Naturally, he doesn''t believe that a woman can threaten the imperial power. As an emperor, he cares about the minister''s response to the prophecy. Fortunately, Merton didn''t disappoint him and publicly responded to the female Lord Chang, which means that Merton has no guilt.


    "It''s more than a public response to the prophecy, but it''s just adding fuel to the fire. Now the Mohists not only openly recruit women workers, but also caused an uproar in the whole Chang''an city." empress Chang sun frowned. She is a firm supporter of women''s virtue, while Mohism is a firm supporter of women''s virtue. She not only advocates women''s enrollment, but also strongly supports women''s decision-making, which is very different from the position of empress Chang sun.


    "This is your different position. In the royal family, the imperial concubines in the back palace can''t do politics. It''s most appropriate to advocate that women''s lack of talent is virtue. It''s not a bad thing to be a hostess who is not inferior to men''s labor in the people." Li Shimin is very open-minded and sees the root cause of their differences at a glance.


    "Your Majesty is wise! The palace will surely bind the harem and abide by the return of the palace in the future." empress changsun solemnly said that she took the initiative to mention the difference between women''s talent and non talent, just to highlight her prophecy of abiding by her duty in the harem and avoiding suspicion of the female Lord Chang. Empress Chang sun, who was well aware of Li Shimin''s character, even immediately ordered the imperial palace to prohibit politics, and even her nephew Chang sun Chong shut up.


    "You care too much about these imperial laws and regulations. No wonder Wu Meiniang doesn''t want to be bound in the palace." Li Shimin can''t help sighing. Then he realizes that his remark is inappropriate. Wu Meiniang has almost become a taboo in the harem,


    "By the way, how is this woman now?" Li Shimin couldn''t help asking again. He appreciated Wu Meiniang in his heart and wanted to see Wu Meiniang regret.


    The eldest Sun Queen replied, "I heard that she was delegated by Merton and no longer took care of the affairs of the Mojia village, but gave her a small cotton spinning workshop."


    "It''s so good, and it''s just to sharpen her pride!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Wu Meiniang is a woman after all. If he loses his demeanor, but she makes the Royal lose face. Merton''s punishment also gives the royal face and makes everyone have a step down.


    What Li Shimin doesn''t know is that Wu Meiniang''s demotion is just a plan of Mohist female leader Chang, first recruiting female workers, and then encouraging women to start businesses,


    Moreover, the recruitment of female workers in Mojia village is extremely smooth. Although countless men have denounced the perverse behavior of Mojia village, the result has surprised everyone. Women in Mojia village are paid the same as men for equal work. With ink woman Zhuyu in the front, there are an endless stream of female job applicants. After all, Chang''an city is not easy, life pressure is heavy, and the salary offered by Mojia village is not low, People in Chang''an City vote with their wallets.


    With the leading role of Mojia village, other shops in Chang''an city also began to recruit women workers. After all, they are equivalent to male labor. The cost of women workers is low, and women workers also have the advantages of exquisite mind and serious work. For a while, women workers became popular in Chang''an City, and the trend of women''s prosperity became more and more obvious.


    "Lady Chang! Merton has taken a dangerous step!" Li Shimin frowned. Although he said that the folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were open, it was still a patriarchal society after all. Once female workers and male workers used it at the same time, it would certainly cause trouble.


    Empress Chang sun replied, "Merton has considered this. Changle will take the initiative to help these women workers and shopkeepers. Once the women workers encounter unfair treatment, they will come forward for them."


    "This is also a good policy!" Li Shimin nodded. Before the situation is clear, it is inconvenient for him to protect the rights and interests of women workers. It is most appropriate for Princess Changle to act as a non-governmental organization. After all, it is natural for Princess Changle to clean up the mess caused by Merton.


    Li Shimin and his wife were talking when a palace maid came to report: "Your Highness, Princess Changle invited the emperor and her majesty to enjoy Gongsun''s new song Mulan.".

 Chapter 1283

    Mulan opera is a story about Hua Mulan, a strange woman, who joined the army for her father. It was composed by Mohist Zi and sung by Gongsun girl. After being publicized by Ink magazine, it has already spread all over Chang''an city.


    Under the heat of the female leader Chang''s prophecy, Mulan Ci and Mulan painting, Mulan opera immediately attracted people''s attention. Therefore, the Mohist school specially put the first performance of Mulan opera in the ink technology exhibition, where there are a full 3000 seats, but it is still difficult to get one vote.


    "It''s really a grand occasion. All along, unless the Mohists hold an ink technology exhibition, it will be unprecedented here. Now it can be compared with the ink technology exhibition only because of a Mulan opera." a Chang''an people exclaimed.


    "You don''t know. Miss Gongsun is a master of both sword and dance. She is a famous sword dancer in Chang''an city. Unfortunately, she hasn''t returned since she joined the Mohist school. Now it''s Miss Gongsun''s first comeback show. Naturally, we won''t miss it. She is a master of both sword and dance. It''s most suitable to play Hua Mulan." a merchant expected.


    "I''m here for the story of Mohist Zi. You know, this is another work of Mohist Zi after liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. It must be wonderful." a scholar said excitedly. Although the Confucian and Mohist schools did not deal with each other, no one denied the talent of the Mohist school. After all, not long ago, the Mohist School polished the pearl jade of Mulan Ci, and naturally people were looking forward to Mulan opera.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    There was a lot of discussion. Some people came for Gongsun girl, some were looking forward to the script of Mozi, others were attracted by Hua Mulan''s deeds, and some wanted to see what an unheard of song was.


    As the opening time is getting closer and closer, the people in the ink technology exhibition field are gradually overcrowded.


    "There are so many people?" Li Shimin frowned in the box.


    "My father doesn''t know. Now everyone in Chang''an City praises Hua Mulan and praises her as a strange woman. Now the Mulan opera is born in the air, and the people in Chang''an naturally want to see it first." Princess Changle, accompanied by her, said proudly.


    After Mohist propaganda, Mulan has become the hottest topic in Chang''an City, and it is logical that Mulan opera is popular.


    "Isn''t it just a little song? I have to pull my father and mother over."


    Empress changsun looked at Princess Changle and spoiled her face. As the emperor and queen, where would they care about a small song, but they couldn''t beat Princess Changle. Finally, they had no choice but to come.


    Princess Changle looked forward and said, "my father and my mother have wronged Changle. Changle has met a good song and specially invited my father and my mother to enjoy it. You know, this is the" rule "of Mulan opera." the man is the ground, the woman is the well, and the well water irrigates the field, this is the square, this is the rule. "Hua Fu advised.


    Mulan retorted, "men are the earth, women are the sky, and the blue sky embraces the earth. This is the radius, and this is the rule.


    The flower father said helplessly, "if you are a man, you can still go to the battlefield and make achievements. It''s a pity that you are a daughter."


    Mulan replied, "what about her daughter? She studies and practices martial arts differently. She suffers from different birth, age and illness. A woman can hold it for a long time."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    On the stage, the dialogue between Mulan and Huafu aroused a lot of meditation. Such a straightforward dialogue showed everyone a novel feeling with the situation of the stage, and the wonderful language made people think deeply.


    "It''s a pity that you are a daughter!"


    Under the stage, Wu Meiniang sighed in her heart that she had listened to such words many times since she entered the Mohist school. She had also wavered. However, master trusted her again and again and entrusted her with an important task.


    "Women hold up half the sky!" this was the most moving answer she had heard. It was also master''s affirmation to her and her best return to master.


    With the development of the plot, Hua Mulan worried everyone. When the North invaded gently, because there were no men in the flower family, the elderly flower father was recruited into the army. Hua Mulan disguised himself as a woman and joined the army for his father.


    On the stage, Gongsun Yue was originally a master of swords. Women disguised as men were valiant and valiant. Combined with the skill of sword dance, it will undoubtedly show the charm of nearly Hua Mulan and make everyone shout that it was a worthwhile trip.


    However, what is more wonderful is the excerpt from Mulan opera. Who says that women are not as good as men''s lyrics makes everyone fall into meditation.


    "Brother Liu''s speech is too reasonable. Brother Liu''s speech is too reasonable. Who says that women enjoy leisure, men fight at the border, and women spin at home,......... Which of these women is inferior to their son."


    A wonderful dialogue cheered all the women in the ink art exhibition. This sentence is the strongest refutation of women to men.


    Among a group of ladies, the gorgeous Princess Gaoyang is the most eye-catching, and her eyes are colorful.


    "Who says that women are not as good as men? Although Gaoyang is a woman, there is another man in the world who can be seen by Gaoyang." Princess Gaoyang said proudly in her heart.


    The valiant Hua Mulan, easy to understand and well-known songs and words, and the personality charm of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness to join the army for his father. No one loves such Hua Mulan. Everyone in the ink technology exhibition is attracted by Hua Mulan.


    "Mulan, what a flower to replace a tree!" in the crowd in the stands, the disguised yin-yang son had a gloomy face. He risked to stay in Chang''an city to see the means of Mohist. Now Mohist Zi uses a Mulan Ci, a Mulan painting and a Mulan song Completely define the female Lord in a Hua Mulan who is loyal, filial, benevolent, righteous, intelligent and brave. Even the emperor has no reason to refuse such a female Lord Chang. If the yin-yang family wants to use the female Lord Chang, I''m afraid it will be greatly reduced.


    "How nice it would be if there were more Mulan under my command?"


    Sure enough, Li Shimin in the box regretted greatly. This time, even the empress Chang sun nodded silently.


    However, she then shook her head with self mockery. After all, men are in power, and few women join the army. I''m afraid there will always be only one Hua Mulan in this world.


    Princess Changle was relieved. With Li Shimin''s words, Wu Meiniang was finally safe.

 Chapter 1284

    "Over time, Mulan opera will certainly spread all over the Tang Dynasty."


    After Mulan opera, yin and Yang Zi walked out of the ink art exhibition and his face was unprecedentedly dignified. At this moment, he really felt the counterattack of Mohist Zi.


    Mulan CI is a masterpiece of poetry. It conquers scholars. Mulan paintings are humorous and interesting, and are deeply loved by children.


    Mulan is wonderful, easy to understand and catchy. It is popular with the public. No matter men, women, young and old, even illiterate women can hum twice. Who says women are inferior to men.


    In this way, Mulan Ci, Mulan song and Mulan painting directly include all classes of the Tang Dynasty, so that the image of Hua Mulan can enter thousands of families and go around every corner of the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, the prophecy of female leader Chang can blossom everywhere in the Tang Dynasty.


    "Lady Chang''s prophecy has come true." the little mage said unbelievably.


    For a long time, even if the prophecy of the yin-yang family is fulfilled, it takes a long time to ferment and brew, and some even die. However, after the three board axe of the Mohist school, the female leader Chang is popular in the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid this is the fastest prophecy of the Yin-Yang family!


    "The Mohist family!" said Yin and Yang. He was extremely oppressed. The female leader Chang did come true, and the speed was countless times faster than he expected. However, this was not the result he wanted. He gambled on the luck of the Yin and Yang family to frame the Mohist family. Looking at the history books, whenever the female leader was in power, his evaluation was mainly based on prejudice, Yin Yang Zi wanted to attack Mohism through the world''s prejudice against women for thousands of years.


    He didn''t expect that Mojia Zi''s attainments in the art of yin and Yang were so high. First, he held the perfect heroine Hua Mulan on the table to publicize the shining point of NvZhu Chang, and then hid Wu Meiniang, the main target of the Yin and Yang family, in the dark and sent it to a small cotton spinning workshop to avoid the limelight.


    Hua Mulan was originally a person of the previous dynasty, belonging to Yin, but the Mohist School reversed Yin and Yang and held it in the open. Wu Meiniang was a human being in the present world, belonging to Yang, but the Mohist School reversed Yin and Yang and hid her in the dark. The continuous reversal of Yin and Yang immediately dissolved the Yin and Yang School offensive and invisible.


    "Mojia Zi, do you think it''s over like this, but you forget that women are born Yin. The slight fluctuations in reality will make their hearts imaginative. Wu Meiniang, from the high Mojia senior sister, proudly rejected the Royal female leader''s life, how can she be willing to bow down and waste her youth in a small broken cotton spinning workshop." Yin and Yang said with a sinister face.


    The little mage raised his eyebrows and said, "master means to plot against Wu Meiniang."


    Yin Yang Zi smiled confidently and said, "it''s not the teacher who plotted against Wu Meiniang, it''s Wu Meiniang who blackened herself. You know, once a woman becomes vicious, it makes people shudder."


    The little mage shivered at the thought of the means of those women in power in history.


    "Send a message to Zi Qian''s family, add some obstacles to Wu Meiniang, and secretly send a letter to his Highness the king of Jin to inform Wu Meiniang of her current situation. In such a contrast, how many women in the world can abide by their original heart?" Yin and Yang Zi Zhizhu said.


    It has to be said that yin and Yang have extraordinary intelligence. At a glance, they can see the weaknesses of women under the condition of women''s prosperity. Those women suddenly break away from oppression and bondage, wantonly abuse their rights, coupled with women''s own physiological defects, if they are not smooth, they will betray the Scriptures and leave the Tao, leading to great disaster. Not all the women''s black history in the history books wronged them.


    "Wise master!" the little mage said with admiration on his face.


    He had to admit that master was right. If they had left Chang''an City before, all the plans of the yin-yang family would not only be cracked by the Mohists, but also used by the Mohists. Only when they stayed in Chang''an city could they see their moves.


    In the Mohist cotton spinning workshop,


    Wu Mei Niang frowned at the desolate workshop.


    Today''s cotton spinning workshop is an empty shell, and dozens of women workers need to feed. However, the orders of the cotton spinning workshop are few, the machines are old, and the cotton cloth produced has no sales at all. It has always been unable to make ends meet. This was originally the project to be cut off by Mojia village, which is doomed to have no future. Now her task is to carry forward it.


    "Meiniang, this is a workshop that Hou Ye bought to accommodate the families of the Mohist village in the city. Originally, he didn''t want to make money." a Mohist daughter-in-law said with a ashamed face. They can''t compare these married Mohist daughters-in-law with their native Mohist children. They have a good workshop, but finally they closed down.


    Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "it''s not your fault. There are countless similar cotton spinning workshops in Chang''an City, let alone countless women spinning day and night at home. Cotton spinning has been highly competitive in Chang''an city."


    "The Marquis also knows this reason. He doesn''t blame us, but it''s a pity that he has implicated Meiniang." the daughter-in-law of the Mohist family said with a bitter smile.


    "Implicate?" Wu Meiniang disagreed. "Fierce competition doesn''t mean competition. However, it used to be before, now it is now. With Wu Meiniang, I can certainly lead the cotton mill to turn the world around."


    Wu Meiniang did what she said and soon led the daughter-in-law of the Mohist school to work hard. Due to the shortage of manpower, Wu Meiniang set an example and spun flowers and weaving in person.


    When the weaving could not be sold, Wu Meiniang personally came to the door and contacted one cloth merchant to sell.


    Even in order to save money, Wu Meiniang went out to repair the loom herself, just to save a little repair cost. Although the whole cotton spinning workshop was dilapidated, it was still in full swing.


    "My poor child, how can you do such rough work?" suddenly, a pathetic voice came, and Yang''s eyes looked at Wu Meiniang carrying a huge sack with tears.


    Seeing this, Wu Meiniang frowned and said, "why did your mother come? Why did you come to Chang''an City when you weren''t in Mojia village?"


    "There is a rumor that you are not the elder sister of the Mohist master. If you didn''t come here for your mother, you can''t believe it. You are the daughter of a dignified Duke. How can you do such rough work?" Yang said with a painful face.


    Wu Meiniang retorted, "I think we were marginalized in the government. My mother didn''t make a living by sewing and mending. Why can''t she look at this kind of livelihood today."


    "That can be the same. In those days, my mother was forced to be helpless, but you are different. You should have become the princess of Jin and enjoy prosperity. How can you be like a market woman?" Yang taught.


    Wu Mei Niang was so angry that she said angrily, "if you didn''t make an opinion, how could I be punished."


    Yang''s momentum suddenly weakened. He knew that he couldn''t control his daughter now and muttered a few words. Then he left angrily.


    Not long after Yang''s departure, Wu Meiniang wiped her sweat and continued her efforts to spin. Suddenly, she felt a hot look coming and suddenly looked up. It was Li Zhi, king of Jin.

 Chapter 1285

    "I''m sorry! It was my king who reduced you here."


    Li Zhi said with tears in his eyes and a guilty face. He knew that in the eyes of a rational person like Wu Meiniang, any cover up was useless. The only way was to admit his mistake honestly.


    Sure enough, Wu Mei Niang sighed, "you are not wrong. What is wrong is our concept."


    In the face of a man who loves himself, no matter who the woman is, she can''t be cruel, even Wu Meiniang, who is extremely intelligent.


    "No, if it weren''t for me, you would still be a senior senior senior sister of the Mohist school, instead of working hard in a small cotton mill." Li Zhi said with a sad face.


    Wu Meiniang said firmly, "this is my own choice and the punishment I deserve. I don''t blame anyone."


    "Don''t worry, I''m going to ask my father and mother to end the imperial concubine selection. Even if I don''t want to be the king of Jin, I''ll spend my life with you alone and monogamous." Li Zhi said painfully.


    Wu Mei Niang said with a bitter smile, "just forgive me! Do you think I''m not miserable enough? If master knows that you''re making trouble with your majesty because of me again, I''m afraid you have to assign me to the steel plant."


    Li Zhi put away his acting skills and looked at a messy cotton spinning workshop. He said proudly, "don''t worry, no matter how much cotton spinning your workshop produces in the future, I will accept it at a high price."


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "no, I appreciate your kindness. Now you''d better stay away from me, otherwise I can only be more unlucky in the end."


    No matter how Li Zhi persuades Wu Meiniang, she never accepts Li Zhi''s good intentions. Finally, she can only leave reluctantly.


    "Lord, why don''t we secretly create some trouble? I believe Miss Wu will naturally turn to the Lord when she is desperate." a eunuch gave a bad idea.


    Li Zhi sneered and said, "stupid, I just need to be responsible for making good to Meiniang. As for these bad things, naturally someone should do them properly."


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the eunuch flattered.


    After Li Zhi left, Wu Meiniang threw herself into the cumbersome textile and looked at the cloth in a warehouse. Wu Meiniang nodded with satisfaction.


    However, when she pulled the carefully woven cotton textile to the market for sale, the market poured cold water on her.


    "Eldest martial sister, it''s not that villains refuse to pay a high price, but the market situation is like this. Villains only pay this price when they see that the quality of your cloth is good." a cotton textile merchant looked at Wu Meiniang''s cotton cloth and haggled desperately.


    Wu Meiniang frowned. Recently, the price of cotton cloth in Chang''an City has dropped sharply, which is the highest price that Chang''an merchants can offer. However, after selling all these cotton cloth and paying wages, the cotton spinning workshop will lose a lot.


    Of course, if she could find the Mohist school to sell, in her capacity, the price would be needless to say, but the arrogant Wu Meiniang was unwilling to take advantage of it and was complacent that she would sell these cotton fabrics at a low price as soon as she gritted her teeth, because she knew that the more now, the more goods can not be overstocked. Only by obtaining capital turnover can the cotton spinning workshop be saved.


    After selling the cotton textile, Wu Meiniang walked on the street of Chang''an City and couldn''t help thinking. Her eyes can naturally see that under such a vicious circle, the cotton textile workshop can''t last long, and now she must think of ways to break the situation.


    "There are only two ways to bring the cotton mill back to life. One is to improve the textile efficiency, reduce the cost of cotton cloth, and the price is king. In this way, the cotton cloth produced by the cotton mill can be invincible. The other way is to make superior cloth and obtain high profits." Wu Meiniang thought in her heart.


    "If you want to do something, do something big." Wu Meiniang said in her heart. Finally, she turned her eyes to silk. Only silk perfectly agreed with her requirements.


    "Meiniang, think twice! The price of silk has fallen year after year, and it is much less valuable than before. What market will it be in the future?" advised the accompanying Mohist daughter-in-law.


    Wu Meiniang smiled bitterly. She didn''t know the reason why the price of silk fell. It was master''s vigorous promotion of cotton planting that led to the sharp decline in the value of cloth. If master hadn''t vigorously promoted the silk road plan, the price of silk would have to collapse. Rao is so, the price of silk still fell continuously.


    "If silk is not favored by people, we have the opportunity to make silk. Nowadays, men and women in the Tang Dynasty cultivate and weave, and cotton cloth is everywhere, which is difficult to sell. Even a large number of cotton clothes are unsalable, but silk is not. The so-called Luo Qi is not a silkworm breeder, but most of those who can afford silk are wealthy families, and these people are the main force to buy silk." Wu Meiniang calmly analyzed.


    In the farming era, no one would spend money on anything that could be made by themselves, and silk was an exception. In addition, there were many rich families in Chang''an City and the business was prosperous, so the silk business had great prospects.


    "But now the silk has been monopolized by the Wei family and other aristocratic families, how can we compete with them?" the Mohist daughter-in-law worried.


    Wu Meiniang patted her chest and promised, "don''t worry. From now on, my senior sister will start designing more advanced spinning machines. In addition, Meiniang has obtained the printing and dyeing secret recipe from Taoist Changsheng. Once it is successful, the silk of our workshop will certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty."


    "This... OK!" the Mohist daughter-in-law had no choice but to obey. Now the cotton textile industry has reached the bottleneck. Spinning and weaving silk is not a way out.


    "At that time, I''ll let all the men in Chang''an City have a look. I, Wu Meiniang, can also make a career with my own hands." Wu Meiniang said proudly.


    "We believe you!" the accompanying Mohist daughters-in-law clenched their fists.


    "Brother Liu''s speech is too unreasonable. Who says women are not as good as men..." Wu Meiniang hummed a minor, couldn''t wait to turn the carriage and return to the cotton spinning workshop. No, I''m afraid it will become a silk workshop in the future.


    Wu Meiniang, who returned to the cotton spinning workshop, was like a changed person. She hid in the workshop all day and kept experimenting, while other Mohist daughters-in-law still spun cotton and struggled to maintain.


    With the passage of time, Wu Meiniang''s cotton mill is in a more and more difficult situation, which is going to be difficult to maintain.


    "Who says that women are not as good as men? Even the great senior sister of the Mohist school left the support of the Mohist School and disappeared from the public. This world has always been a man''s world. The so-called female master Chang is just a joke."


    Many people who secretly pay attention to Wu Meiniang gloat. In their opinion, without the platform of Mohism, Wu Meiniang will be like most women in a short time.


    In this secret person, yin and Yang Zi shows a sneer. Wu Meiniang''s situation is carefully planned by him. Once Wu Meiniang''s situation becomes difficult, her heart will change over time. At that time, yin and Yang family will take advantage of it.

 Chapter 1286

    Although Wu Meiniang caused a lot of waves in Chang''an City, Chang''an city was surging. Wu Meiniang was dormant in the cotton spinning workshop, which was soon diluted and soon covered up by the news of the triumph of the Northern Expedition army.


    "Datang won!"


    When the people of Chang''an City heard the news of the triumph of the army, they looked as if they were not surprised by honor or disgrace. Since Datang defeated Turks, Tuyuhun and Gaochang, no one thought that Datang would lose in the face of Xue yantuo. Therefore, the victory of Datang is not news, but the defeat is big news.


    In this war, there was a battle in which Datang was defeated. Originally, victory and defeat was a common thing for soldiers. As long as it was the final victory of the war, there was no need to mention the twists and turns. However, this battle caused an uproar in Datang, because the defeated army was a famous firearms army.


    "The firearm army has been defeated!" countless people were in an uproar when they heard the news.


    You should know that the firearm army''s attack broke the reputation of the city, but no one knows it. It has become the first strong army in the world. Now the first strong army in the world has broken its halberd on the grassland. How can the proud people of the Tang Dynasty accept it.


    Think of the prestige of the firearm army led by mojiazi in those days, and the enemies everywhere were afraid. Now, facing the little Xue yantuo, Chang sun Chong lost. Other armies in the Tang Dynasty can lose, but the firearm army can''t lose, because the firearm army is the face of the Tang army.


    "Chang sun Chong is Zhao Kuo alive. He talks on paper. I think he was a civil servant and had no combat experience. How could he command the strongest army?"


    "Fortunately, General Li Ji arrived in time, otherwise the firearm army would be completely destroyed. Think of the prestige of the firearm army led by Mohist Zi in the western regions, but now the firearm army is bullied by dogs."


    "Chang sun Chong is just a dandy. He can''t compare with the Mexican family by virtue of his better birth."


    "Compared with the Mohist school, not even a female Mulan."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The people of Chang''an were filled with righteous indignation, coupled with dissatisfaction with the fact that Chang sun Chong was young and occupied a high position, they angrily denounced Chang sun Chong''s straw bag.


    Just when the people of Chang''an attacked each other, the generals of the northern expedition returned triumphantly and were summoned by Li Shimin in the Tai Chi hall.


    The generals of the Northern Expedition are excited when they walk in the imperial palace. They will certainly reward their achievements and achieve some achievements. Among these generals, only one person is the most special, that is, Chang sun Chong, who has been deprived of his official position. Others go to receive rewards and he goes to receive punishment.


    Chang sun Chong''s face was pale. He didn''t expect that he should be so unlucky. In a hurry, he made mistakes again and again. He was caught. Before he could enjoy his war achievements, he was seized by the imperial court as a general of the firearm army, which made him despair. His great future would be ruined by his momentary mistake.


    Fortunately, his father mediated for him in the court and made a detailed plan for him, which minimized his responsibility. Rao is so. He still needs to pass the Taiji hall.


    "I''m the legitimate son of the changsun aristocratic family. I''m a relative of the emperor. Who can do anything about me?" changsun said fiercely in his heart. He thought that as the Queen''s aunt and Princess Gaoyang, he had more confidence in his heart. He didn''t believe that his Majesty would have the heart to make the queen sad and Gaoyang shed tears.


    "The end will knock on your majesty!"


    "Your generals have worked hard. This battle is thousands of miles away. They can win Xue yantuo in one battle. In fact, your generals fight for their country to ensure the stability of the frontier." Li Shimin said Longyan Dayue.


    Xue yantuo was defeated in this war, and the Megatron grassland continued the myth of invincibility of the Tang Dynasty. I''m afraid there will be no threat to the border of the Tang Dynasty after this war.


    "The last general didn''t dare to take credit. In fact, his majesty had made a battle plan before Taishan became a Buddhist priest, and the ministers were just acting under orders." Li Ji said modestly.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the generals of the Northern Expedition echoed one after another.


    "The so-called general died in a hundred battles and the strong man returned in ten years. If there were no other soldiers fighting on the front line, there would be no stable and prosperous life for the people of the Tang Dynasty." excited by Li Shimin, the classic poem of Mulan CI blurted out.


    "A general dies in a hundred battles, and a strong man returns in ten years!" when they heard this sentence for the first time, they couldn''t help feeling again and again. Although the military general was promoted the fastest, his military achievements came from fighting to death. It can be said to be the most dangerous occupation in the world.


    In the eyes of those who want to, Li Shimin blurted out the verses of Mulan CI. It can be seen that he highly recognized Hua Mulan. Some people wanted to use the prophecy of female Lord Chang to deal with the Mohist school, and their careful thinking immediately disappeared without a trace.


    "Today all the generals returned in triumph. The Ministry of war immediately rewarded them for their meritorious deeds, and all the meritorious officers and men were granted rewards." Li Shimin waved his big hand. It was like imitating the scene in Mulan''s words, when he came back to see the son of heaven, the son of heaven sat in the Ming hall, made twelve turns of policy Xun, and rewarded the top 100.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" all the officers and men were immediately happy. You know, military merit is the most valuable reward and punishment in Datang. A soldier who has obtained military merit is enough to rewrite the fate of a family.


    "It''s the duty of a general to die in a hundred battles and return a strong man in ten years. However, one general abandoned his army and fled, ignoring 3000 soldiers. The minister impeached the general of the firearm army. Sun Chong abandoned his army and fled. His crime is unforgivable." an angry censor impeached.


    In an instant, the Manchu officials were quiet. Chang sun Chong''s identity and status were enough to make everyone aware of the thorny nature of the case.


    Li Shimin''s face suddenly cooled down, stared at Chang sun Chong and said, "Chang sun Chong, what''s your excuse?"


    Chang sun Chong was pale, ashamed and said, "tell your majesty, I have nothing to say. I was indeed separated from the soldiers of the firearm army in the war. No matter what the reason is, I can''t cover up my sins."


    Unexpectedly, Chang sun Chong pleaded guilty without any excuse, which made the Minister of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty in an uproar.


    "Villain! You are so bold. Tell your majesty that the villain escaped without fighting, which almost ruined the previous efforts of the Tang Dynasty. Please punish the villain severely." Chang sun Wuji looked angry and scolded Chang sun Chong by pointing to his nose.


    "Now that Chang sun Chong has pleaded guilty, come on, put him in prison and strictly investigate the responsibility for his crime." Li Shimin angrily rushed to heaven.


    "Your Majesty, think twice! General Chang sun was forced to leave the firearm army!"


    "If General Chang sun hadn''t left the firearm army and watched the Turkic cavalry, it would be difficult to say whether the battle would be won or lost!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    As soon as Li Shimin''s voice fell, many ministers begged one after another.


    The eldest sun Wuji said with a look of killing relatives with great righteousness: "I have taken the heart of all my colleagues, but the dog has violated the military law, which is beyond the mercy of the law. If it is not severely punished, it is not enough to strictly enforce the military discipline."


    "It''s really admirable that Lord Chang sun killed his relatives in righteousness. However, Lord Chang sun wronged your son. There''s another secret. Please report it in detail." Zhang Shigui, general of the northern expedition, suddenly appeared.


    "There is a secret!" the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty was not surprised and looked at Zhang Shigui puzzled one after another.


    "General Zhang, come quickly!" Li Shimin frowned.


    Zhang Shigui solemnly said: "I inform your majesty that when the firearm army was trapped, the main Knights of the Tang army had quietly arrived. However, for the sake of the overall situation, General Li personally ordered to use the firearm army as bait to lead Xue yantuo into the Bureau. The firearm army fired the distress signal gun several times. General Li was not moved. He ordered to attack until the fighter plane was mature. Finally, there was such a great defeat of Xue yantuo."


    "Use the firearm army as bait."


    When Zhang Shigui finished, he suddenly burst into an uproar. No one thought there was such an inside story.


    Li Ji frowned and turned to look at Zhang Shigui. This is a confidential matter in the army, and Zhang Shigui took the initiative to say it,


    However, Zhang Shigui lowered his head with a guilty conscience and dared not look at Li Ji. Compared with Li Ji, he was more inclined to turn to changsun Wuji. After all, he and changsun Wuji were both old people of Xuanwu sect and had a closer relationship.


    Li Shimin frowned and said, "can it be?"


    Li Ji bowed out and said, "tell your majesty that the general at the end of the time really laid out a siege against Xue yantuo with the firearm army as the bait."


    Hearing the speech, Li Shimin nodded slightly. He knew that Li Ji''s status disdained to lie. Since he admitted that he used the firearm army as bait, it means that the matter is true. In this way, Chang sun Chong''s behavior is really difficult to determine.


    "If you are on the battlefield, you should have the consciousness of wearing a horse''s clothes and wrapping your body. Whether you lure the enemy''s army or not is not the reason for the rebellious son to abandon the army and flee." the eldest sun Wuji seemed to have no sympathy for Zhang Shigui and bluntly fought back.


    Zhang Shigui shook his head and said, "Lord Chang sun didn''t know. At that time, the military situation was urgent. Chang sun Chong didn''t know he was a bait. With the situation in which Chang sun Chong was in, he was able to leave the firearm army and go to the Turkic army to stabilize the situation on the battlefield. It was a quick decision."


    According to Zhang Shigui, Chang sun Chong was not only innocent, but meritorious.


    However, they could not refute it. After all, the situation in the world was too urgent. It was specious whether it was to abandon the army and flee or to rush to power. In addition, no one in the power of the changsun family wanted to offend them, and all the officials were silent.


    "So, it''s the father who wronged Chong''er." the eldest sun Wuji said with a regretful face.


    The eldest sun looked righteous and said generously, "as a general of the firearm army, I should not abandon the army for any reason. When I abandoned the army to catch up with the Sima Khan cavalry, I already thought of the consequences. No matter how others treat me, I will only do what I think is right, even if I will pay the price."


    Chang sun Chong was so excited that he couldn''t help thinking that his father sent a message to him secretly, asking him to admit that he had abandoned the army and fled, and don''t care about anything else. Now he was shocked to see his father overturn his case for the cloud and the rain. However, none of them lied to protect him and interpret the lie with truth.


    "I beg your majesty to punish Chong''er, so as to calm the long mouth of people all over the world." Chang sun Chong knelt down on the ground and pleaded with Li Shimin.


    One sentence of Chong''er completely hit Li Shimin''s weakness. Chang sun Chong is not an ordinary person. He is the nephew of empress Chang sun, the husband of Princess Gaoyang, and the direct son of Chang sun Wuji, his most trusted minister. If Chang sun Chong''s criminal evidence is conclusive, others have nothing to say. Now Chang sun Chong''s crime is in doubt. If he is forcibly convicted, I''m afraid it''s not worth the loss.


    "As a general of the firearm army, Chang sun Chong abandoned the army and left. Although it is excusable, he has already committed dereliction of duty. Therefore, Chang sun Chong is removed from the position of general of the firearm army. His merits and demerits are equal and an example is made." Li Shimin shouted coldly.


    After Morton brought the whole army to Yumen pass, he returned to Chang''an City after abandoning the army. Chang sun Chong''s responsibility is much greater than that of Morton. I''m afraid he can''t convince the public at all.


    "I beg your pardon!" the elder sun Chong knelt down, like the rest of his life. Although he regretted that he was removed from the position of general of the firearm army, he didn''t care too much. I think at the beginning, Merton was also removed. Soon after he was removed, no official was restored to his original position. In his capacity, just let his father run more, and there must be another fat job waiting for him.

 Chapter 1287

    "The young master has returned to the house!"


    With Chang sun Chong stepping on the door, the whole Chang sun mansion cheered and everyone was excited. Chang sun Chong''s safe return once again proved that the power of Chang sun mansion was unmatched.


    "The young master returned after winning and was framed by villains. Fortunately, his majesty recognized the Pearl and returned the young master''s innocence." the eldest sun housekeeper boasted.


    The eldest grandson snorted coldly, "as long as there is an aunt queen, I can''t fall in the eldest grandson''s house."


    "That''s, that''s!" the Chamberlain of changsun''s house answered repeatedly.


    "Rebellious son, be careful!" the eldest sun Wuji angrily denounced. He thought that the eldest sun Chong would converge after experiencing the life and death situation. He didn''t expect to be so open-minded. Although the eldest Sun Queen is the biggest backer of the eldest Sun family, he can''t publicize it wantonly.


    Chang sun Chong then converged, bent over to Chang sun Wuji and said solemnly, "the child was framed by a little man. It all depends on his father''s help."


    The eldest sun Wuji snorted coldly, "you can finally feel the pain of being a father. You''re lucky this time, but you won''t have such good luck next time. Once you really sit down and shame the eldest sun''s house, don''t blame your father for not being father and son."


    Chang sun Chong suddenly felt cold in his heart. He naturally heard Chang sun Wuji''s warning. If he really couldn''t overturn the case, his father''s righteous killing of relatives in the court hall would become a reality.


    "The child remembers his father''s instruction." the eldest sun Chong obediently said.


    Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "since you''re back, stay at home and accompany Gao Yang."


    Changsun Wuji has something to say. These days, Princess Gaoyang ignores his ban and openly walks in Chang''an city. As his father-in-law, he is inconvenient to say more. He can only implicitly signal changsun to take charge.


    The eldest son nodded and arched his hand, "I know. I''m leaving."


    "See the son-in-law!"


    The eldest sun rushed back to his courtyard and found that he was only greeted by a group of palace maids. He did not find the trace of Princess Gaoyang.


    "Where''s the princess?" the eldest son frowned.


    "Tell your son-in-law that the princess has gone out to listen to the music." the leading maid replied truthfully.


    Chang sun Chong was furious. As a husband, he had just passed the gate of hell. Instead of worrying about waiting at home, Princess Gaoyang, his wife, went outside to listen to music, which embarrassed Chang sun Chong.


    "Brother Liu''s speech is too unreasonable. Who says women are not as good as men..." after a while, Princess Gaoyang hummed softly outside the courtyard.


    After Gong Sunyue sang Mulan opera, she consciously trained singing girls to sing Mulan opera. Now Mulan opera is blooming everywhere in Chang''an City, known to women and children.


    "Ah! You''ve come back. I''m thinking of coming back early and ready to meet you?" Princess Gaoyang said with surprise when she saw Chang sun Chong''s face. Naturally, she remembered that Chang sun Chong heard the song in the temple today and hurried home. She didn''t expect that she was still a step late. Chang sun Chong came back so soon.


    Rao is so. As a princess, Gao Yang doesn''t feel anything wrong. Now she has been brainwashed by the concept of freedom and doesn''t think she is wrong at all.


    "Why, you can''t wait to enter the prison for your husband and can''t come back. In this way, you will affect your listening to music." Chang sun Chong said with a gloomy face.


    Princess Gaoyang''s face sank when she heard the speech and said, "what are you crazy about? Forget it. I won''t see you when you just returned from the war."


    Princess Gaoyang knew she was wrong and didn''t want to entangle, but Chang sun Chong was not. He had just encountered a life and death situation on the battlefield and faced the review of hundreds of officials on the court hall. She had a nameless fire in her heart for a long time. Now she saw that Princess Gaoyang was so arrogant at home and was detonated in an instant.


    "Mulan Ci and Mulan Qu were made by Mohist. You don''t know the relationship between being a husband and Mohist. You not only don''t follow the husband, but also help the tyrants. Do you still pay attention to being a husband?" the eldest son said angrily.


    Before Princess Gaoyang came back, he learned from the palace maids that "Mulan Ci" and "Mulan Qu" were the works of mojiazi. The mojiazi who stayed in Chang''an city was proud, and he replaced mojiazi as a general of the firearm army, but narrowly escaped death on the grassland. How can such a different treatment make changsun Chong feel balanced.


    Princess Gaoyang sneered: "don''t you just listen to a little song? Now Mulan is popular all over Chang''an city. Which woman hasn''t heard it, but you can''t get through here. Is it because the princess hasn''t been free to listen to the music? If you have the ability to write a song, the princess will hold you every day."


    Chang sun Chong said angrily, "what Mulan opera? It''s immoral to preach that some women don''t abide by women''s morality."


    This is not Chang sun Chong''s choice of words, but represents the deep-rooted view of a large number of men. They firmly believe that men are superior to women and do not believe that the so-called women can achieve anything.


    Princess Gaoyang was stunned by Chang sun Chong. He didn''t expect Chang sun Chong to look down on Hua Mulan. Hua Mulan is her spiritual idol. Doesn''t that mean Chang sun Chong looks down on women from the bottom of his heart.


    Princess Gaoyang said angrily, "it''s ok if others despise Hua Mulan. What qualifications do you have to despise Hua Mulan? Hua Mulan strikes softly in the north. When he comes back to see the son of heaven, CE Xun turns twelve and rewards hundreds of thousands. What about you? You are greedy for life and fear death, abandon the army and flee. You''ve lost your position as a general. You''re not as good as a woman. It''s like a silver gun and wax gun head."


    "You......" Chang sun Chong immediately felt a mouthful of blood rushing up his head.


    Princess Gaoyang said, "don''t tell me about the critical moment. Make a quick decision. I know you very well. You are greedy for life and fear of death. You are gold and jade. Inside, you are talking on paper. If your majesty didn''t read about the queen and the princess, with your flawed reasons, you thought you fooled the past and another person would have been put in prison."


    Indeed, for someone else, I''m afraid Li Ji has already corrected the military law on the spot, and the reason why he stands here is stained with the light of the royal family.


    "You bitch!"


    Chang sun Chong''s fig leaf was stripped naked by Princess Gaoyang. He became angry and raised his palm high, but he couldn''t shake it. On the one hand, it was because of the identity of Princess Gaoyang, on the other hand, it was because he was just getting rid of his crime at a sensitive moment. If there was another storm, he would be miserable if he was settled after autumn.


    Princess Gaoyang sneered and said, "if you dare to fight, I will admit that you are a man. Now you let me down."


    Say it, Princess Gaoyang turned proudly and left changsun Chong standing there decadent.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Chang sun Chong gnashed his teeth and said that he was the son of Chang''an''s first aristocratic family. He wanted wind and rain. However, since he met the Mohist family, he had a bad time. It was all the Mohist family''s fault.

 Chapter 1288

    However, what Chang sun Chong doesn''t know is that now Merton is also angry with Chang sun Chong. Since Chang sun Chong split the firearm army, he has not been in any difficulty for the firearm army, but fully supported it. However, now Chang sun Chong has stubbornly brought the firearm army to a dead end, with a war damage rate of more than half. This is since the establishment of the firearm army, The biggest hit.


    "The firearm army has a strong combat power, but it was the disaster. Chang sun Chong and sun wukai are to blame." in the Tai Chi hall, Merton looked at the war report of the firearm army and said angrily.


    Li Shimin said with embarrassment on his face, "victory or defeat is a common thing for soldiers. However, the firearms army has just been established and has not gone through such a war. Some setbacks are inevitable."


    Li Shimin naturally knows that Chang sun Chong and sun wukai have a lot of responsibilities. However, Chang sun Chong has been favoritism, and sun wukai is bloody and hard to punish.


    "I feel sorry for my officers and men of the Tang Dynasty. It was an avoidable tragedy to sacrifice their lives in vain and bury their bones in a foreign land. I thought that the tragedy of the firearm army could become a negative example. The so-called soldiers were a bear and would be a bear. When marching and fighting, we should not be cronyist and airborne civilian officials. Once a layman led an expert, it would cause endless harm." Merton advised bitterly.


    He founded the firearm army and devoted so much effort. How can he not be sad that there are so many casualties now.


    "Cronyism, one soldier, one nest! Laymen lead experts!" Li Shimin''s face darkened. He knew that this was Merton''s crazy connotation, Chang sun Chong, but he had nothing to say.


    The firearm army massacre was not caused by accident. On the one hand, he was cronyist and handed over the firearm army to his nephew. On the other hand, there was the strategic mistake of Prince Li Chengqian. Of course, there was also changsun Chong''s own greed for work, recklessness and fear of life and death, which made him deal with the matter quickly.


    "I have warned the Ministry of military. I called you to see me this time to discuss the reconstruction of the firearm army. The firearm army is the face of the military in the Tang Dynasty. We must regroup. I know that the firearm army is your hard work. I hope you don''t want to be impulsive and actively offer advice and suggestions." Li Shimin quickly skipped this topic and said today''s purpose.


    Although the firearm army suffered heavy losses, Li Shimin saw the powerful attack power of the firearm army. In the face of the attack of 200000 Xue yantuo, the firearm army stubbornly stalled and killed a large number of Xue yantuo''s cavalry. I''m afraid the firearm army could be powerful again if it hadn''t made a ruthless plan to shoot and kill the horses of the firearm army. How could Li Shimin, such a strong army, let go, The best understanding of the firearm army is Merton, who founded the firearm army.


    "Rebuilding the firearm army?" Merton raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.


    "Not bad! I want to hear your opinion." Li Shimin nodded,


    Merton closed his eyes and meditated. Although he was dissatisfied with Chang sun Chong, he had deep feelings for the firearm army. Naturally, he didn''t want the firearm army to decline. At present, he thought, "after several wars, we can see that every time the firearm army plays against more, we can''t lose. My minister believes that if we want the firearm army to dominate the world, we must increase the number of firearm troops."


    "Increase the number of firearm soldiers?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and said in surprise. But when he thought about it carefully, it was true. At the beginning of the western expedition to Gaochang, if there were 3000 firearm troops and 5000 Tibetan cavalry, I''m afraid they didn''t dare to attack at all. During the northern expedition to Xue yantuo, if there were more firearm troops, they might be able to kill them in the face of Xue yantuo''s siege.


    "Wei Chen believes that it is most appropriate to set the number of firearms army at 10000 soldiers. First of all, 10000 soldiers are the best number to become an army. The firearms army is worthy of its name. With the combat power of the firearms army, Wei Chen can ensure that the firearms army is invincible when it is less than 10000." Merton said proudly.


    "Man Wan is invincible!" Li Shimin took a breath and was immediately shocked by this remark. A mere ten thousand people can run all over the world. Such an army is really terrible.


    Merton Lang said: "the firearm army is famous for its attack power, and its defense power is weak. If there are more than 10000 people, the attack power will be doubled. Under the attack instead of defense, the weakness of the firearm army will be completely made up, and the defense power and attack power will reach a perfect balance. Retreat can be defended and advance can be attacked."


    Li Shimin was shocked and said, "in that case, it''s better to expand the firearm army to 20000 or even 50000. Who is the opponent of Datang in that world."


    Merton shook his head and said, "absolutely not. Today''s firearms are not perfect. Coupled with the heavy gunpowder, the baggage of tens of thousands of firearms army is a heavy burden. No matter how many people there are, it will drag down the marching speed and offensive efficiency of firearms army, and it will cost too much."


    Li Shimin reacted from his excitement. His imagination is unrealistic. The cost of 3000 firearm troops has far exceeded the cost of tens of thousands of cavalry, especially gunpowder. It is really easy to use and powerful, but it is a gold eater. I''m afraid tens of thousands of firearm troops are the limit borne by the Tang Dynasty.


    "In addition, the firearm army is a new type of arms. It can no longer appoint tough generals who don''t know big words. Instead, it needs to select outstanding people from military academies to fill the officer level, so as to ensure the loyalty and combat strength of the firearm army. In this way, the combat strength of the firearm army increases sharply and is loyal to the imperial court." Merton proposed again.


    Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said, "I really didn''t read you wrong. It seems that it''s time to hand over the firearm army to you again."


    Morton raised his head in surprise and looked at Li Shimin in surprise. He didn''t expect Li Shimin to hand over tens of thousands of firearm armies to him. You should know that all the generals who can command the armies are veterans who follow Li Shimin to fight the world, and he has been included in this trip in less than 30.


    "Why, I still blame you for taking the position of general of the firearm army." Li Shimin pretended to be angry.


    Merton smiled bitterly, shook his head firmly and said, "Your Majesty is very kind, and my minister deserves it. However, after the battle of chenfupan grassland, it is found that a weak civil servant is not suitable for commanding the firearms army. Although the firearms army was founded by Weichen, Weichen is not a military general. There is a candidate more suitable for the general of the firearms army than Chen."


    Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and said, "why? Mo Aiqing wants to recommend talents to me."


    Merton nodded and said, "yes, I want to recommend Xue Rengui, the former firearm army captain."


    "Xue Rengui!" Li Shimin was surprised. Although he was a small school captain, his name was on the war reports of the firearm army.


    Merton nodded: "Yes, if we only talk about the understanding of the firearm army, Xue Rengui would be the number in the world in addition to the micro minister. At that time, the micro minister was obsessed with the firearm prison. Xue Rengui almost established the firearm army. In addition, he was the first batch of cadets in the military academy, and he had excellent arrow skills and brave fighting. He was a rare general and the only candidate for the general of the firearm army."


    "There is such a good general. Where is he now?" Li Shimin said with great interest.


    Merton replied, "Xue Rengui is now in the Qinling Mountains, leading the newly established engineering battalion to dig a new Shu Road."


    "Send the order and let Xue Rengui return to Beijing immediately to prepare for the reconstruction of the firearms military." Li Shimin waved his hand and ate a long wisdom. After the painful lessons of airborne commander sun Chong and sun wukai, Li Shimin decided to listen to Merton''s suggestions and reuse Xue Rengui who climbed up from the firearms army step by step to ensure the combat effectiveness of the firearms army.


    "However, Xue Rengui is a school captain after all. It''s not easy to provoke criticism to suddenly rise to two levels and become a general of the firearm army. He ordered Xue Rengui to be a general and a deputy general of the firearm army, and veteran Zhang Shigui to lead the position of general of the firearm army." Li Shimin thought.


    Merton couldn''t help sighing at the words. How powerful the inertia of history is. The two enemies who had deviated from the track unexpectedly bumped into each other again.


    "Wei Chen obeys the order!" although Merton''s history is surprisingly similar, he still takes orders. For one thing, Xue Rengui''s position as a general of the firearm army is indeed promoted too fast, which is not conducive to his growth.


    Second, Xue Rengui in his previous life led a group of soldiers who were short of major generals, but now Xue Rengui led a strong firearms army, which is much stronger than the opening of his previous life. I''m afraid a mere Zhang Shigui can''t suppress Xue Rengui at all. Sometimes, suffering is the best way for a person to grow up quickly.

 Chapter 1289

    Xue Rengui''s suffering is still in the future, and Wu Meiniang''s suffering has just begun..


    Now Wu Meiniang is at the end of her poverty. The spinning machine used now can inherit the finished products of thousands of years. It has been improved for thousands of years to reach perfection. If you want to improve, you must make a big breakthrough. It is useless to make a small fuss.


    Wu Meiniang continuously improved several kinds of spinning machines, and finally fell short of success.


    "Is it so difficult for a woman to make a career?" Wu Meiniang couldn''t help but say dejectedly. Once she followed Merton, it was smooth sailing. Now she suddenly realized that her previous smooth sailing was that the master had pointed out the direction to her, which made her leave.


    Now she is in charge of the spinning workshop, and there is no master to guide her. At this time, she feels the difficulty of starting a business.


    "Would master be trapped if she was in this situation?" Wu Meiniang couldn''t help but reflect. However, she shook her head immediately. Master didn''t encounter difficulties. On the contrary, every time master encountered more difficulties than her, but she could deal with them easily and even go to a higher level.


    "If the master were here, what would he do?" Wu Meiniang suddenly moved in her heart and began to think in the opposite direction.


    "Mohist machinery!"


    Wu Meiniang thought that the first application was to transport Mohist machinery to spinning, so as to save time as much as possible, so as to achieve more efficient spinning effect,


    In addition to Mohist machinery, master will also apply other 100 schools of knowledge for Mohist use. Even a little improvement will also cause the finishing touch.


    Wu Meiniang seemed to open a new door and suddenly opened up. At this moment, her mind burst with inspiration and thought. She shut herself in the room and studied behind closed doors.


    A few days later, Wu Meiniang officially left the customs. Ignoring the worried Mohist woman, she simply cleaned up and went straight outside the city.


    Wu Meiniang galloped along the brick road and soon rushed to a big workshop.


    "Please let me know that Wu Meiniang of the Mohist school asked to see zhiniang." Wu Meiniang turned over and Ma Lang said in a voice.


    "Wu Meiniang of the Mohist school." the concierge was shocked. Wu Meiniang, the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school, is famous in Chang''an city. Especially after the storm of selecting a concubine by the king of Jin, Wu Meiniang is well known to women and children. Now the concierge didn''t dare to delay and hurriedly went in and reported it.


    "It turned out that the famous senior sister of the Mohist school arrived, and zhiniang was really lucky!" after a while, a capable middle-aged woman appeared in front of Wu Meiniang, who was the famous zhiniang in Chang''an City and controlled the largest cotton spinning workshop in Chang''an city.


    Although zhiniang controls the largest market share in Chang''an City, she does not dare to underestimate Wu Meiniang. First, Wu Meiniang is famous as a senior sister of the Mohist family. Second, as far as she knows, Wu Meiniang is now her competitor. She also has a cotton spinning workshop in her hand. If other people are not afraid of zhiniang, Wu Meiniang, who came from the Mohist family, makes her like a black eye, After all, the strength of Mohism is absolutely oppressive to an ordinary workshop.


    "Zhiniang is kind. Meiniang has just joined the cotton spinning workshop. Only then can she know how difficult it is for women to start a business. Zhiniang''s ability to stand in Chang''an City by herself is really admired by Meiniang." Wu Meiniang complimented.


    "Meiniang flatters me. Meiniang is a heroine among women. She has been famous in Chang''an since she was young!" zhiniang said modestly, but she was actually vigilant.


    "Meiniang came here today to talk about a deal with zhiniang." Wu Meiniang said the purpose of her trip directly.


    "Oh! Meiniang, please speak!" zhiniang raised her eyebrows and waited for Wu Meiniang to follow.


    "Meiniang built a new spinning machine, which is driven by water. It can spin ten cotton threads at a time. One spinning machine is comparable to the work of ten women workers. I don''t know if the Weaver is interested." Wu Meiniang said directly.


    The hydraulic spinning machine is her way to push back Merton''s thinking. The biggest problem of the spinning machine is the power problem, which requires manual shaking, which is time-consuming and laborious. If the power problem can be solved, it will greatly improve the efficiency. Merton''s concept of using the power of heaven and earth makes her instantly think of water instead of manpower.


    "Seriously!" zhiniang was shocked in her heart and said with surprise on her face. Now she only has dozens of spinning machines. If there is a hydraulic spinning machine, the production capacity will increase more than ten times.


    However, after zhiniang was only excited, she immediately shook her head with a bitter smile and said, "Meiniang really thinks highly of zhiniang. You know the current situation of textile in Chang''an city. Zhiniang can spin more cloth, which is also in vain. She can''t sell in Chang''an city."


    Like Wu Meiniang''s analysis, zhiniang understands that in the feudal society of men farming and women weaving, spinning and weaving are essential skills for every family. Even Chang''an City has limited demand for commercially produced cloth, which is not appreciated by rich people. Everyone in ordinary families will do it. Otherwise, with Wu Meiniang''s talent, her cotton spinning workshop will not be on the verge of closure.


    Wu Meiniang came prepared and said, "zhiniang is a little biased. Do you know that in Chang''an City, in addition to the middle-class people who need cloth, hundreds of thousands of people need to buy cloth."


    "Hundreds of thousands of people? Seriously?" zhiniang was shocked and looked at Wu Meiniang in disbelief. If there was a large market of hundreds of thousands of people, her workshop could be doubled.


    "That''s natural. Hasn''t zhiniang heard the Mulan opera famous in Chang''an City?" Wu Meiniang said.


    "Soldiers!" said zhiniang impressively. Chang''an city is the place with the most troops in the world. These soldiers have money and can''t knit clothes. Although they usually have clothes sent from home, it''s not so convenient. Most of them still buy them.


    "Longxi Majia village makes winter hats and cotton padded clothes for the imperial court. Meiniang can introduce zhiniang."


    Zhiniang''s breathing is not heavy. You know, Majia village now makes winter hats and winter clothes for the whole northern army. The cotton and cloth needed are not a small number.


    "As far as I know, the military is ready to reform the new army, buy soldiers'' clothes uniformly, and no longer let my family mail them. But there are millions of soldiers in Datang, so zhiniang doesn''t like it?" Wu Meiniang bewitched. Even 10% of the clothes of millions of people is enough to make zhiniang rise to the sky step by step.


    Zhiniang''s breath stagnated. After a long time, she asked the biggest doubt in her heart.


    "Why me? Since Meiniang has skills and contacts, and has a cotton spinning workshop in her hands, why not do it yourself, but give the benefits to zhiniang." Wu Meiniang said bluntly: "because I have no water power in Chang''an City, because I want to give up the cotton spinning workshop, and because you and I are both women. By the way, I can transfer the market of Mojia village to you."


    The biggest market of Wu Meiniang''s cotton spinning workshop is Mojia village. Since Wu Meiniang gives up the cotton spinning workshop, it will not be cheap to others.


    "In this way, zhiniang has no reason to refuse." zhiniang finally nodded. Zhiniang can be the leader of cotton textile products in Chang''an city with her own strength. Naturally, she has a bit of courage. At present, she has invested heavily in a batch of hydraulic spinning machines.


    Zhiniang never doubted whether Wu Meiniang cheated him. If Wu Meiniang cheated him, the Mexican family would repay her ten times.

 Chapter 1290

    After Wu Meiniang got the first pot of gold, she took the lead in coming to Mojia village and found Lao Zhang tou herself.


    "Grandpa Zhang, I want to order a batch of machinery. Here are the drawings and wages." Wu Meiniang said respectfully.


    Lao Zhang raised his reading glasses and said, "it''s Meiniang! What money do you need to build machinery? I''m not here."


    Mei Niang shook her head and said firmly, "these machines are not for Mei Niang, but some of them are for takeout. We can''t break the rules, and this is the test of master Mei Niang. We can''t rely on external forces."


    Lao Zhang nodded and said, "then it''s enough to charge a material fee. I''ll build these machines myself without pay. Even if the young master asks, I''ll carry them all by myself."


    "Thank you, Grandpa Zhang!" Wu Meiniang said gratefully, knowing that this was the care of the Mohists.


    Wu Meiniang said goodbye to Mojia village. Ignoring the Yang family who came to hear the news, she immediately rushed to Chang''an city. It is not that she has a deep prejudice against Yang family, but that she must race against time to complete her layout of the textile industry.


    Wu Meiniang came to the east city and ordered a batch of silk. Then she came to the west city of Chang''an and ordered dozens of mules. Then she went north to xuandu temple and found Taoist Changsheng and matched a batch of dyes.


    On the occasion of Hua Mulan''s expedition, the East market bought horses, the west market bought saddles, the south market bought bridles and the north market bought whips. Wu Meiniang is no worse. She buys silk in the East, mules and horses in the west, machinery in the South and dyes in the north. After all this, it can be said that everything is ready, only the east wind.


    Only ten days later, the first batch of hydraulic spinning machines required by the weaver was installed. As soon as they were put into use, the weaver immediately praised them. The use of hydraulic spinning machines not only saved manpower, but also the quality of the spun cotton thread was at a high level. Then the weaver made a decision, and then ordered another batch of hydraulic spinning machines with great efforts. With these machines, No one can compete in the textile field of Chang''an City, except Wu Meiniang, who invented the hydraulic spinning machine.


    "Don''t worry, Meiniang will do what she says. The Mohist cotton spinning workshop will be changed into a silk workshop." Wu Meiniang said bluntly.


    Zhiniang smiled and said hypocritically, "Meiniang, I''m out of sight. It''s better for Meiniang''s sister to set the workshop next to zhiniang, and you and I can be partners."


    Zhiniang thought that Wu Meiniang also wanted to use water to weave silk, but she didn''t think that Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "the biggest market for silk is in Chang''an city. My sister decided to use mules and horses instead of water to weave silk in Chang''an city''s workshops."


    "That''s a good feeling! My sister believes that my sister will succeed soon." zhiniang said heartily. After a short exchange, she has been conquered by Wu Meiniang''s talent and courage. Coupled with the same woman, she naturally hopes that Wu Meiniang can succeed.


    "Farewell!"


    Wu Meiniang said goodbye to zhiniang and returned to the cotton spinning workshop in Chang''an city. It was already in full swing here. Groups of Mohist children were gathering together to assemble and debug machinery.


    "How''s the assembly?" Wu Meiniang asked.


    "Don''t worry, elder martial sister. I promise I won''t delay the elder martial sister''s business." a Mohist boy patted his chest and promised.


    Soon, the machinery needed by Wu Meiniang had been debugged. With a clear drink, the strong mule and horse obeyed the command and began to walk, driving the mule machine to rotate rapidly, so as to drive the textile machine and loom to run continuously.


    "Don''t worry, elder martial sister. Mr. Zhang said that although the mule machine transformed by elder martial sister is not a durable hydraulic machine, it gets rid of the river restrictions and can be used anywhere. It is not only convenient, but also more efficient and better than hydraulic power." one of the children of Mohism praised that, you know, Wu Meiniang''s elder martial sister of Mohism didn''t get her name because she was a disciple of Merton, It was won by strength. Now Wu Meiniang has once again proved that her name as the eldest martial sister of the Mohist school is worthy of its name.


    "In that case, what are you waiting for? Start!" Wu Mei Niang waved her big hand.


    "Yes!" the women answered one after another.


    With Wu Meiniang''s order and the rapid operation of the mule machine, the new textile machine spun more fine and strong silk thread, and then produced more exquisite silk. Then, it was printed and dyed with the most confidential dye of Taoist waidan. A smooth and fine silk with superior color quality appeared in front of the women of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Meiniang is still powerful. I''m afraid such silk can''t compare with even the tribute." a Mohist daughter-in-law exclaimed.


    "As long as this silk appears in Chang''an City, it will certainly cause looting. Our workshop will certainly come back to life, and Meiniang will officially pass the young master''s test." another Mohist daughter-in-law said excitedly.


    All the girls are extremely excited. All along, their Mohist daughters-in-law have broken down the cotton spinning workshop. Now the workshop is about to come back to life. How can they not be proud.


    "No, we don''t sell silk." Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said.


    "Ah!" the women were puzzled and looked at Wu Meiniang in amazement.


    "Then what shall we buy? Can''t we sell machines?" the Mohist daughter-in-law didn''t understand.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "of course not. If you want to sell, sell the clothes with the highest profit."


    "Ready to wear?" the women were puzzled.


    "Now winter is coming and the weather is about to turn cold. In master''s plan, there is a good thing to keep out the cold, but it has not been made. What is missing is the most precise cloth. Now Meiniang has finally found it for master." Wu Meiniang said in a loud voice.


    "What Meiniang said about the duck down in the warehouses in the Mohist village." a well-informed Mohist daughter-in-law moved in her heart.


    Wu Meiniang nodded and said: "Yes, cotton padded clothes are warm, but they are extremely bulky. Duck down is extremely warm and lightweight. It is the only choice for women to keep out the cold. If we use duck down instead of cotton to fill the winter clothes, coupled with the best silk as satin, we can make down clothes. Once launched, down clothes will certainly be popular in Chang''an city. No, it should be popular in the Tang Dynasty."


    "It''s light, beautiful and warm, which is what women dream of keeping out of the cold." a group of Mohist daughters-in-law immediately itched and couldn''t look forward to it.


    "From now on, I will vigorously purchase silk and duck down immediately. If the money is not enough, I will personally pay for it." Wu Meiniang said proudly, showing the pride of the richest woman in Chang''an city. Originally, she didn''t use her private money to pass the test of Merton. Now her workshop is about to take off, so she naturally won''t stick to the rules.


    "Yes!"


    The women responded one after another.


    With Wu Meiniang''s Secret acquisition, the silk price in Chang''an City soared all the way, which aroused the vigilance of silk merchants. However, when exploring, it was found that it was too late. Wu Meiniang had already purchased a large number of silk.


    "Wu Meiniang is in charge of the silk industry!" for a moment, the whole silk industry in Chang''an city was frightened. What they were wary of was not the small workshop in Wu Meiniang''s hands, but whether the whole Mojia village intended to set foot in the silk field.


    However, they waited for a long time, but found that Wu Meiniang''s workshop could not get in and out, and there was no silk outflow at all. Instead, they consumed a lot of silk every day. Such abnormal operation made Chang''an silk merchants restless.


    It was not until a definite news came out that the whole Chang''an City became a sensation.


    "Wu Meiniang wants to make ready-made clothes - down jacket!"

 Chapter 1291

    "Wu Meiniang wants to make ready-made clothes." after the news came, zhiniang looked at the winter clothes in front of her and couldn''t help smiling.


    The so-called heroes think alike. Not only did Wu Meiniang see the high profits of silk clothes, but also zhiniang saw the money path of cotton clothes.


    Recently, the Weaver has greatly reduced the labor cost by using the hydraulic spinning machine. She finds that she is already the leader of the textile industry in Chang''an city. If she seizes the Chang''an City market at a low price, she will only hurt herself. Making cotton cloth into cotton clothes can not only ensure the profits of the workshop, but also make a way in the small-scale peasant economy.


    Because in the small-scale peasant economy where men farm and women weave, the only way to sell cotton clothes is to reduce the price of cotton clothes to the point where it is not cost-effective for farmers to make ready-made clothes, so the weaver sets the price of cotton clothes she produces at a very low price. In order to minimize the price and obtain as much profit as possible, she works between Confucian clothes and ink clothes, Zhiniang did not hesitate to choose the ink clothes with the simplest workmanship and the most material saving.


    "Thirty Wen for a cotton padded coat!"


    When the cotton clothes of zhiniang workshop appeared in Chang''an City, almost everyone was surprised.


    You should know that it takes several kilograms of cotton to make only one cotton coat, buy cotton cloth, and then spend manual time to sew it. The single material cost nearly thirty Wen, so the price of thirty Wen of cotton coat immediately aroused the rush purchase of Chang''an people.


    "That''s not how it works. If we grow cotton, spin, weave and sew cotton clothes ourselves, we won''t spend a penny." a peasant woman said painfully, still unwilling to spend the thirty cents.


    The young woman on one side said with a smile: "It''s really not like that. The price of male workers in Chang''an city is 300 Wen a day, and the price of female workers is about 200 Wen a day. It takes at least ten days to save 30 Wen from spinning flowers and weaving to sewing, while female workers can earn 100 Wen in half a month. If you save the time to make clothes, wouldn''t you earn more?"


    Since the Mohist School advocated women''s prosperity, in addition to the Mohist School''s massive recruitment of women workers, other stores have followed suit and began to recruit women workers. We should know that women workers are cheaper in price and more careful and skillful. Women workers began to prevail in Chang''an city.


    The premise of the prevalence of female workers is to liberate women from heavy housework, especially spinning flowers, weaving and sewing clothes. However, it is a big project for every family, and the Weaver''s cheap cotton clothes just catch up with this opportunity to liberate women from heavy spinning.


    "Yes, not to mention the cotton clothes made by the Weaver''s workshop, which are beautiful, diverse, high-quality and cheap." many girls agreed.


    For women, in addition to being diligent and thrifty, they also need to pursue beauty. Compared with their own hand-made clothes, the appearance of cotton clothes produced by zhiniang workshop has been greatly improved.


    For a while, cotton clothes sold well in Chang''an City, and even spread to other big cities along the brick road. This winter, ink clothes rose strongly.


    Zhiniang''s cotton clothes impact the clothes of the middle and lower class people in Chang''an City, and the emergence of down clothes completely amazes the middle and upper class ladies in Chang''an city.


    "It''s fashionable, soft and warm. Silk is the face and down is the lining. It''s as light as nothing. It''s actually the most perfect thing for women to keep out the cold."


    Compared with stiff cotton clothes and heavy fur clothes, down jacket can be said to be light and beautiful. Once it appeared on the market, it immediately caused an uproar in the ladies'' circle of Chang''an city.


    "Ordinary down jacket 300 Wen a piece, embroidered down jacket 500 Wen a piece!"


    Even if the down jacket is expensive, the ladies of Chang''an city rush to buy it, and everyone is proud to have down jacket.


    "Meiniang, down jackets are selling crazy! Now merchants in Chang''an city are constantly urging goods." a Mohist daughter-in-law said excitedly.


    "OK!" Wu Meiniang waved her fist excitedly. Although she was quite confident in the down jacket, she couldn''t help being excited when she heard the success of the down jacket. This was her own achievement.


    "From now on, women workers, especially embroidery women, will be recruited immediately. Winter is coming and the weather is about to turn cold. This time, down jackets will not only be distributed in Chang''an City, but also face the whole Tang Dynasty." Wu Meiniang said with satisfaction.


    "But our cash has already been put into it, if......" a Mohist daughter-in-law worried that they had spent all Wu Meiniang''s coffers in order to store goods.


    Wu Meiniang nodded without hesitation and said, "then take the down jacket workshop to the Bank of Mojia village for loans. We don''t make special loans. We just borrow according to the normal process. I believe shopkeeper Shen won''t refuse."


    Sure enough, when Wu Meiniang went to Mojia village bank for a mortgage loan with a down jacket workshop, Shen Hongcai happily approved a huge sum of money.


    Wu Meiniang, who got the money, couldn''t wait to carry out the next round of expansion. She ordered machinery in the south, bought silk in the East and mules and horses in the West. For a while, the price of silk rose sharply again. Wu Meiniang made silk return to its peak with her own strength.


    "Wu Meiniang''s down jacket workshop has recruited female workers."


    As the news spread all over Chang''an City, the women in Chang''an City exclaimed one after another. It suddenly occurred that the down jacket that caused an uproar in Chang''an city was actually written by Wu Meiniang.


    Down jacket is now popular in Chang''an City, and Wu Meiniang is a man of the moment in Chang''an city. People originally thought that Wu Meiniang would be silent after Mo Jiazi sent Wu Meiniang to the cotton spinning workshop, but no one thought that she would rise again in such a short time.


    With Wu Meiniang''s leading call and the expensive price offered by the down jacket workshop, the price is the same as that of male workers. In January, women in Chang''an City enthusiastically came to sign up as female workers. For a while, female workers in Chang''an City were popular.


    A large number of female workers directly stimulate the economy of Chang''an city. One month''s salary is enough to buy a family''s cotton clothes. When the down jacket in Chang''an City sells well, the Weaver''s cotton clothes workshop is at its peak.


    Moreover, seeing Wu Meiniang''s big hand weaving mother, she also followed the gourd and painted a gourd, took her own cotton clothes workshop mortgage, also opened a new round of expansion and wantonly recruited female workers.


    For a while, Chang''an city female owner Chang is no longer a slogan, but really realized in Chang''an city. A female worker can also support family responsibilities.


    With a cold current coming from the northwest, the whole north is desolate, and winter is coming.


    At the same time, carts of cotton clothes and down coats drove to the whole Central Plains, and the trend of thought of female Lord Chang also spread from Chang''an city to the whole Tang Dynasty.


    No one thought that the female Lord Chang was so easily realized by two women.

 Chapter 1292

    "Nine to five!"


    This is the working time set by Wu Meiniang for the female workers.


    It is the most common working time for ordinary people to work at sunrise and rest at dawn. However, women workers can''t. although women workers work during the day, they also need to undertake domestic work.


    At dawn every day, the female workers have started to get up and cook. After waiting for the men and children at home to eat, they hurried to clean up the housework and went to the down jacket workshop to start the day''s work. When five o''clock in the afternoon, the bells ring on all sides, and the female workers also leave work on time to take care of the family.


    The reason why Wu Meiniang decided to work nine to five is not only to facilitate women workers to take care of their families and not cause family conflicts, but also to let women workers reduce secular pressure as much as possible. Once they leave home too early or return home too late, it will be criticized. Working nine to five can enable women workers to take care of their families and work at ease.


    Wu Meiniang''s efforts were not in vain. Such relaxed conditions could not help but excite the women in Chang''an City and join women workers one after another. Even at the peak of prosperity, at least half of the women in Chang''an City became women workers.


    Before 9 o''clock in the morning, a large number of women workers rush out of their homes and go to the factory. After 5 o''clock, a large number of women workers return home. This is an ordinary and extraordinary day for women workers.


    "This is the grand occasion predicted by the prophecy woman Chang!"


    He has been secretly observing Wu Meiniang''s yin-yang son and was shocked. Although the prophecy of female Lord Chang was issued by him, he still underestimated the grand occasion of female Lord Chang.


    The emergence of a large number of female workers instantly doubled the human resources of Chang''an city. For a while, Chang''an City prospered and flourished.


    Today is the time for women workers to make monthly payments. As long as most women workers work hard, they can get 300 Wen. The income of some highly skilled women workers even exceeds that of the men in their families.


    Women''s economic independence has not only made great contributions to Chang''an City, but also doubled their family income. Even women''s family status has risen. Some smart and capable women even began to take over the financial power of the family from men. For a time, women''s prosperity prevailed in Chang''an city.


    "Female Lord Chang is the prophecy of the prosperous age issued by the elder personally. If women in the world can turn over and be masters, thank you for your kindness." suddenly a sudden voice appeared behind Yin and Yang Zi.


    "Mojiazi!"


    Yin Yang Zi suddenly turned around and looked at the visitor inconceivably. He didn''t expect that the Mo family had found him directly. He found that there were no idle people around him. Only Merton and him, and the Yin Yang family and the Mo family finally met formally.


    "At the end of his studies, I will go to Merton and meet the elder Yin and Yang Zi." Merton came forward and saluted respectfully.


    "Late learning?" Yin and Yang couldn''t help laughing. "In the era of a hundred schools of thought contending, there are really a large number of heroes. The dignified Mo family is modest and late learning. Isn''t the defeated old man ignorant and incompetent."


    "You are too modest," Morton said modestly.


    Yin and Yang smiled calmly: "Guo Qian, looking back now, I found that Mo Xiaoyou was good at Yin and Yang. When the Yin and Yang family took the initiative to attack with Sheng Shichen, the Mohist school did not retreat but advance, and took the initiative to fulfill the female leader Chang, pushing Hua Mulan to the open, while secretly denouncing Wu Meiniang as a dilapidated cotton spinning workshop. I thought you were protecting Wu Meiniang. Now it seems that I was wrong. You are recasting a pawn Magnolia. "


    Merton raised his eyebrows and said, "what do you mean?"


    "Haw haw, Mulan is the home Weaver. Mulan starts with weaving, but Wu Meiniang denounces her as a cotton mill. Is it a coincidence?" Yin and Yang sneered.


    Merton said with a wry smile: "master Yin and Yang thought more. Wu Meiniang is just a woman. The only way to let her play her talents is the cotton spinning workshop."


    Yin Yang shook his head and said, "no! It''s more than that! You deliberately show weakness and denounce Wu Meiniang, but in fact you are secretly calculating Confucianism and killing two birds with one stone."


    "Secretly calculating Confucianism!" Merton frowned and said, "what''s the solution?"


    Yin and Yang reached out and brushed: "Wu Meiniang seems to have been sent to the cotton spinning workshop, but in fact, she secretly completed the struggle for Confucian and ink clothes for the Mohists. As soon as the cheap cotton clothes came out, all the middle and lower families wore ink clothes. The Confucian clothes still firmly occupied the upper class of the Tang Dynasty. As soon as the down jacket came out, the upper class women''s clothes were immediately occupied by the Mohists, and only the men in the upper class of the Confucianism were wearing Confucian clothes, which can be said in terms of quantity More than one hundred will be assimilated by ink clothes sooner or later. The victory or defeat of the clothing dispute between Mohism and Confucianism has been decided. "


    In the view of yin and Yang Zi, this clothing dispute is not that Mohist school defeated Confucianism, but that Mohist school completely defeated Confucianism with the help of the prophecy of yin and Yang school, integrating the luck of Mohist School and Yin and Yang school, and with the help of Wu Meiniang. This time, even Yin and Yang school was used by Mohist school. This is not a double carving with one arrow. What is it? "


    Merton said with a bitter smile, "if Mo didn''t know that Meiniang would make such a big noise, do you believe it?"


    Merton knew he didn''t do these layouts, but the reality made him irrefutable. He could only say that Wu Meiniang did too well.


    However, yin-yang Zi nodded and said, "I believe this is the mystery of the way of Qi Yun. Once the prophecy of the prosperous age came out, Wu Meiniang is both the Qi Yun of Mohism and yin-yang family. I''m not surprised that she did anything shocking."


    Merton shook his head and said, "the Mohists believe in their ink skills. Meiniang can have today because of her study of ink skills. Even if there is no prophecy of prosperity, Meiniang will make down clothes one day."


    Yin Yang Zi said proudly: "Without the luck of the prosperous prophecy, the down jacket might not come true in ten years. Now the down jacket is born in the sky, and half of the women in Chang''an city become women workers. With the example of Wu Meiniang, I believe that more women will become women workers and become a member of the Mohist School in the future. The Mohist school has the foundation of half the population of the Tang Dynasty. This is the power of the prosperous women of the prosperous prophecy, and this What the ciyin and Yang family did was to make wedding clothes for the Mohist family. "


    For this result, yin-yang Zi was very distressed. If yin-yang Zi defeated Mohism with the prophecy of the prosperous age, the yin-yang family would reap the luck of Mohism for thousands of years. Now Mohism has gone against its path and realized the prophecy of the prosperous age. The yin-yang family has been swallowed and finally used by Mohism.


    Merton retorted, "it''s a Confucian way to change fate. Unfortunately, this road is only open to men, and ink technology is available to both men and women. It''s not that female master Chang made Mohism, but that female master Chang can only be realized in Mohism. Only ink technology and Mohism can change women''s fate."


    Yin and Yang Zi can''t help but, er, think about it. Indeed, other hundred schools are dominated by men, and other hundred schools will sporadically accept women as disciples, while Confucianism forbids women to enter school, let alone make women officials.


    At that time, he saw the rise of women in the Mohist School and felt it for a moment, creating the female master Chang of prophecy in the prosperous age, but he forgot why only the Mohist School appeared.

 Chapter 1293

    "It is worthy of being the son of the Mohist family who inherited the spirit of the Mohist family for thousands of years. It is worthy of being the son of the spirit selected by me personally. This time, the yin-yang family lost! The yin-yang family recognized it."


    Yin and yang are willing to gamble and admit defeat. Before that, yin and Yang families had not lost, but they often experienced many fierce exchanges. However, it was the first time to lose this crisp defeat.


    Merton shook his head and said, "master Yin and Yang Zi is polite. The contention of a hundred schools of thought is regardless of success or failure. It is a victory to be able to make their own claims in the contention of a hundred schools of thought. Now the female leader of the Yin and Yang family has made a prophecy, changed the status of women in the world, and will be famous in history in the future."


    "Famous biography of history!" Yin and Yang smiled bitterly. He wanted to defeat Mohism instead of famous biography of history.


    "The yin-yang school has thousands of calculations, but it doesn''t count that the Mohist school has such deep attainments in the art of yin and Yang. The so-called morning and evening can die. The yin-yang school is here today to experience the Mohist School''s art of yin and Yang." the yin-yang school looks at Merton with hot eyes. As the giant of the yin-yang school, he is itchy about the Mohist School''s art of yin and Yang.


    Merton said reluctantly, "if Mo says he is not proficient in the art of yin and Yang, the elder will not believe it. All the methods belong to the sect, and all schools of thought have the same goal by different ways. Mo is willing to use the new art of contradiction of Mo School to learn the art of yin and Yang of yin and Yang school."


    "The art of contradiction! Please!" Yin and Yang Zi''s eyes brightened. Although their names are different, they both have opposite meanings. Moreover, after his understanding of Mohist intelligence, Mohist Zi is really studying the art of contradiction.


    "Yi has Tai Chi, Tai Chi generates Liangyi, Liangyi generates Sixiang, and Sixiang generates Bagua..." Yin Yang Zi''s face is dignified, and his mouth tells the true book of changes, the origin of Yin Yang family.


    Later generations used to attribute the book of changes to Taoism. In fact, the book of changes came into being much earlier than Taoism. In fact, both Taoism and yin-yang school originated from the book of changes, which is also the reason why the habit of Yin-Yang school is hidden in Taoism.


    "All things have contradictions. Contradictions exist all the time and are everywhere..." Merton also solemnly said the Mohist theory of contradiction, which is why he didn''t wait for him to be happy too early. Merton continued: "Since quantitative change causes qualitative change, we just need to control quantitative change so that it can not meet the standard of qualitative change, so that the world can have a sense of security for the elderly, a doctor for the sick, little education, farmers have their fields and ink has their work. Our Tang Dynasty can not be passed on forever."


    Yin and Yang Zi could not help but be silent. If such social conditions could be met, would there still be rebellion in the world? If there was no man-made rebellion, would the so-called five virtues always exist?


    "All kings will prosper, and the heaven will see first, and the auspicious people will be better than the next people. This is the so-called carrier of heaven." Yin and Yang Zi said proudly. He firmly believed in the theory of Qi luck. Once there is a person of emperor''s luck, he will certainly achieve some achievements.


    Merton raised his head suddenly. He didn''t expect that yin and Yang Zi broke through again between discussing Taoism with him, and even put forward the view of fengtianyun hundreds of years in advance. You know, fengtianyun originated in the Ming Dynasty, which is a further step of the theory of heaven and man induction, and now it comes from the mouth of yin and Yang Zi.


    Merton took a deep breath. He knew that talking about the contradiction of Mohism alone could not convince Yinyang Zi. The only way was to defeat him in the field that Yinyang Zi was best at.


    "The yin-yang school firmly believes in the opposition between yin and Yang, but does not know that contradictions can be transformed into each other. Solitary Yin is not long, solitary Yang is not born, anode Yin is born, cathode Yang is born, there is Yang in Yin, and there is Yin in Yang."


    "There is Yang in Yin, and there is Yin in Yang..." Yin and Yang Zi was shocked and couldn''t believe looking at Mo Jiazi. Mo Jiazi directly explained the art of yin and Yang with the art of contradiction.


    With a wave of his big hand, Merton picked up a piece of paper from the shopkeeper and drew a yin-yang diagram on the paper. Then he even drew an ink dot in the center of the white surface representing Yang and a white dot on the black surface representing Yin.


    The black and white dots are particularly symmetrical on the yin-yang diagram, which instantly improves the artistic conception of the yin-yang diagram to the extreme.


    "There is Yang in Yin, and there is Yin in Yang. This is called Tai Chi." Merton said word by word. The yin-yang diagram of the Tang Dynasty did not have cathode and anode, but was improved in the Song Dynasty. The common Tai Chi yin-yang diagram of later generations was born hundreds of years in advance to resist the Fengtian carrier of Yin-Yang Zi.


    "Yin Yang Tai Chi!" Yin Yang Zi looked at the new Yin Yang Tai Chi diagram, and all the puzzles about the art of yin and Yang in his heart suddenly came to light. The dream realm of Yin Yang family unexpectedly appeared in Mohist Zi.


    "I''m sure I''m right. Marquis Mo''s skill of yin and Yang is really profound. I won''t be wronged. I just have a puzzle in my heart. Please answer it." Yin and Yang said sadly.


    "Master Yin and Yang, please, Mo answered everything." Merton said solemnly.


    "I''m deeply inherited by the Yin and Yang family for thousands of years. No one knows how to hide. Why did Marquis Mo find me directly?" Yin and Yang asked. His identity has changed greatly and has never been exposed. Among the people coming and going in Chang''an City, the Mo family came directly to the door, which made him curious.


    Merton shook his head and said, "naturally, Mo can''t find his predecessors in the vast sea of people, so he has to ask the Legalists for help."


    "Legalists!" Yin and Yang Zi was stunned. Unexpectedly, there was a legalist figure in the contest.


    Merton stretched out his hand and patted. A young man quietly came behind Merton and solemnly saluted yin-yang Zi: "Di Renjie, the last school of legalism, has seen yin-yang Zi."


    "The remains of the sea, di Renjie!" Yin and Yang Zi''s muddy eyes couldn''t help but brighten. When he came to Chang''an City, he naturally knew the Legalists and heard of the younger generation of Legalists.


    "Yes, it''s a pity that he joined the legalist school!" Morton said with regret on his face. "Renjie, he hasn''t solved his doubts to the elder yin-yang Zi."


    Di Renjie nodded: "In the study of Legalists, many escaped criminals will return to the scene of the crime, not to mention the hundred schools of thought contention between the elder and Marquis mo. since Marquis Mo cracked the prophecy of the prosperous age, Renjie believes that the elder Yin and Yang Zi will see Marquis Mo''s Countermeasures with his own eyes. Therefore, every time marquis Mo takes action, Renjie will deliberately observe passers-by. During the first Mulan performance, the elder once After visiting the scene in person, mohou made a public appearance. The elder generation once appeared. The elder martial sister took over the cotton spinning workshop, and the elder generation also appeared. Since the elder martial sister developed the hydraulic spinning machine, the elder generation has frequently appeared before and after Meiniang workshop for dozens of times. "


    "Being able to find a stranger among thousands of people can be called the eye of the sky." Yin Yang Zi said with a wry smile. He knew that his curiosity had hurt him. He was unwilling to see the prophecy of the prosperous world broken by the Mohist school. He wanted to see it with his own eyes at the first time. He didn''t believe that the person he chose would sink. He couldn''t help coming to see it. He didn''t expect that all these were found by the Legalists, and finally revealed the flaws.


    "In addition, the elder hid in Taoism all the year round and took some Taoist habits, which was different from ordinary people. Finally, Renjie asked the Taoist who had met the elder. Although the elder changed his identity, Renjie painted the Taoist hairpin dress with the elder''s face, and the little Taoist recognized the elder at a glance." Renjie bowed.


    "Future generations are terrible! There are successors of the Legalists!" Yin and Yang Zi looked embarrassed. He thought his change was seamless, but he didn''t expect so many flaws in front of the Legalists.


    "Mo is invincible, which makes the elder laugh." Merton arched his hand.


    "When I heard about Tao Xi, I could die. I have no regrets in my life that I can realize the feeling of heaven and see the birth of Taiji yin-yang diagram with my own eyes."


    Yin and Yang looked excited, but the corners of his mouth involuntarily shed a touch of purplish blood.


    Morton frowned and immediately knew that yin and Yang had been poisoned and would soon die. He didn''t understand why these old guys were so careless and gambled their lives.


    "Master Yin and Yang, why do you need this? The contention of a hundred schools of thought is just a dispute of knowledge. You know the meaning of Mo''s harm!" Merton sighed.


    "Yin Yang Sheng is the highest state of the Yin Yang family. However, its existence is destined to be a moment. The Yin Yang family is destined to hide in the dark. Once the world is exposed, it must fall. This is the tradition of the Yin Yang family for thousands of years. I don''t need to say more. However, the dispute between our Yin Yang family and the Mohist school is not over. Since I am in the Ming Dynasty, the bad people will be in the dark. One day, I will be small The disciples will represent the Yin and Yang School and compete with the Mohist school again. "Yin and Yang Zi''s face flushed like a reflection.


    "Mohist school is waiting." Merton said solemnly.


    "Wu Meiniang..." Yin and Yang looked hard at the busy women''s workshop not far away.


    Merton nodded without hesitation: "she will inherit the position of mo."


    "Great goodness!"


    Yin and Yang nodded heavily and passed away.

 Chapter 1294

    "Mo Hou!"


    Looking at Yin and Yang Zi falling on the table, di Renjie couldn''t help looking back at Merton nervously. This was his first shot. There was a human life, and the other party was a family. How can he not be surprised.


    "Let''s have a heavy burial! Although the yin-yang school and the Mohist school are hostile, the elder yin-yang son is a hundred schools of thought after all, and should be respected." Merton said with a heavy face.


    "Whether today''s events are sealed or not, let''s not spread them." Di Renjie looked at the people watching in the distance and asked, there are many people here. If it comes out, it may be used by others, not to mention the Mohist, Legalist and yin-yang schools.


    Merton shook his head and said, "it doesn''t matter. When I met Yin and Yang Zi in public, I didn''t expect to hide it. Forcibly sealing will only cause more groundless speculation. There is nothing to avoid today."


    "Yes!" Di Renjie nodded. Since Mohist Zi had no worries, he was naturally a little man who was not afraid to wear shoes. Now he asked the children of Legalists to start the afterlife of yin and Yang Zi.


    "Master!"


    Di Renjie had just left. Wu Meiniang, who got the news, came in a hurry and saw Merton appear outside the down jacket workshop. Her eyes were filled with tears.


    Merton looked at Wu Meiniang, who was a little less immature and more mature, nodded with satisfaction and said, "you did a good job, even beyond my expectation."


    Merton sent Wu Meiniang down. It was not that yin and Yang said that they would hide behind the scenes and defeat Confucian clothes, but that they let her avoid the limelight and lead to Yin and Yang son. However, it was unexpected that Wu Meiniang actually made a hydraulic spinning machine and creatively created a down jacket, which greatly surprised Merton.


    "I''m worried about Shifu." Wu Meiniang cried. She thought Merton was really punishing her, so she made up her mind to make a career. But I didn''t expect that Shifu had been paying attention to her and secretly cutting off future troubles for her. Otherwise, a hundred families had been calculating that she would be a woman, and no one would be able to sleep at night.


    "The revival of Mohism is destined to fight with other hundred schools. Yin and Yang is not the first and will not be the last. Being a teacher can''t protect you all the time. You have to accept these challenges by yourself in the future." Merton solemnly said.


    "Disciple, remember!" Wu Meiniang said solemnly.


    "Go back, the next storm is borne by me. You just need to do your own thing!" Morton said with a heavy face.


    Although he spoke calmly, a hundred scholars died in front of Merton, which is bound to cause an uproar. This time, the Mohist school will be on the cusp of the storm. This is the last counterattack of yin and Yang Zi to the Mohist school with his own life.


    "Yin and yang are dead!"


    The Mohist school didn''t deliberately seal it. The news spread all over Chang''an city like a whirlwind. Chang''an City, which had been calm for a long time, was instantly fried. A hundred scholars took poison and killed themselves, especially the yin-yang son.


    The prophecy of the prosperous age said that as soon as the female master prospered, the amazing means of the yin-yang family was mentioned again by the world. In particular, the Mohist school made good use of the situation and made every effort to achieve the female master prosperity. The reputation of the yin-yang family and the yin-yang family suddenly soared. However, no one thought that when the reputation of the yin-yang family reached the fixed point, the news of the death of the yin-yang family came, How can we not let the people of Chang''an talk one after another.


    In particular, it also involves the wonderful debate and hundred family dispute between Mohist and yin-yang Zi, which makes many people enjoy talking about. However, Mohist Zi unexpectedly spread that there was a mysterious version of the hundred family dispute in Chang''an city.


    "The death of yin and Yang Zi was not accidental. When Wu Meiniang of the Mohist School realized the prophecy of prosperity, the battle between the Mohist School and the Yin and Yang family had been divided. The Yin and Yang family used Qi luck as a means. Now the Yin and Yang family lost, and Yin and Yang Zi was naturally swallowed by Qi luck," said a storyteller.


    "Bad luck?" when they heard such a mysterious topic, they couldn''t help but stay there. This kind of fighting among hundreds of schools of thought is more dangerous and mysterious than street fighting, and can even be called mysterious.


    "Yes, at that time, yin and Yang Zi had been swallowed by Qi luck and began to have bad luck. After Mohist Zi used Legalists to find the real body of yin and Yang Zi, Wang saw that Wang was dead, and Yin and Yang Zi died as Qi luck." the storyteller showed off his mystery.


    "Wow!"


    The onlookers couldn''t help shouting.


    "Although the yin-yang son was defeated, you don''t know the danger. The yin-yang son prophesied that the female Lord would be prosperous. In fact, the sword pointed to the Mohist school. The Mohist Marquis once said that the dynasty was Tian she Lang and ascended the Tianzi hall at dusk to encourage men all over the world to be self-improvement. This is the way of Confucianism and men. However, do you think daughters can ascend the Tianzi hall, but do you realize the female Lord''s prosperity?" As soon as the storyteller patted the shock, he asked.


    "How can a woman be an official!" a scholar puffed and laughed among the onlookers.


    The storyteller said, "that''s right. It''s not just Confucianism. Other hundred schools can''t achieve women''s prosperity. Only one can."


    "Mohism!" everyone suddenly realized that as we all know, Mohism is the most tolerant family for women, and attaches great importance to female workers, not to mention that the first disciple of Mohism is a woman.


    "Therefore, the female master Chang can and can only be realized by the Mohist school. If the Mohist school does not realize the female master Chang, it will be defeated. Let the yin-yang family reap the luck. If the Mohist school realizes the female master Chang, the yin-yang family will be bitten by the luck. Therefore, after Wu Meiniang led the female workers in Chang''an to realize the female master Chang and was found by the Mohist family, the yin-yang son was bitten by the luck on the spot." The storyteller''s words are conclusive.


    "Wow!" the onlookers exclaimed one after another. Compared with the popular story of Yin-Yang Zi taking poison and killing himself, there is no wonderful story in front of him.


    "It''s worthy of being the Mohist family. It''s so powerful." the people of Chang''an are proud. The Mohist family is the pride of Chang''an city. They haven''t been disappointed every time.


    "More than that, Confucius said, only women and villains are difficult to raise. The yin-yang school proposed that the female master Chang intended to use Confucianism to defeat the Mohist school. While defeating the yin-yang school, the Mohist School calculated Confucianism. The Mohist School secretly managed to lower Wu Meiniang. In fact, it secretly created a down jacket. With the help of the prophecy of the prosperous age, the female master Chang won the battle of Confucianism and ink clothes for the Mohist School in one fell swoop." The storyteller said mysteriously.


    "Since Confucianism is still involved!" they were stunned. They didn''t expect that the fire at the gate would affect the fish in the pond, and Confucianism would be affected by the fish in the pond.


    "Well, the Mohist school is so calculating that even Confucianism counts!" a scholar angrily said in the crowd. He looked around angrily and saw that most people around him were wearing ink clothes except for him and the storyteller. There were more than ten people wearing Confucian clothes in Chang''an city. The trend of Confucian clothes is gone.


    "That''s Mohist''s skill. If Mohist loses, the end will be even worse." a merchant snorted coldly.


    The storyteller did not deny it, but nodded: "The Mohist school is really superior. The yin-yang school is unwilling to fail. They argue with the Mohist school by using the yin-yang skill of the yin-yang school. It is called the dispute between the two scholars, but in fact it is the dispute between the two hundred schools. However, although the yin-yang school is immersed in the skill of Yin-Yang and has great knowledge, the Mohist school is a genius. On the basis of the three unique Mohist schools, the Mohist school has created the skill of contradiction and defeated the yin-yang school in one fell swoop The art of yin and Yang. "


    "Mo debate, the art of contradiction!" the scholar around couldn''t help but sink in his heart. However, he heard that the art of contradiction had spread all over Chang''an city too early. Even he had to admit that the art of contradiction of Mohist school was indeed the most profound knowledge. I''m afraid no scholar in the world could compete with it.


    "However, Yin Yang Zi is not an ordinary person. On his deathbed epiphany, he realized a deeper knowledge of the art of yin and Yang - Fengtian. Unfortunately, he Shengliang was born with Yu. The so-called" ten thousand dharmas belong to the sect ". On the basis of the art of contradiction, Mohist Zi realized the ultimate unique skill of the art of yin and Yang, cathode Yang Sheng, and created a Tai Chi Yin and Yang diagram on the basis of the Yin and Yang diagram. Although Yin and Yang Zi hated and lost, but If you can see the yin-yang diagram further, you will die without regret. "


    With a long sigh, the fortune teller took out two pieces of paper, wrote them respectively, and drew a diagram of Tai Chi Yin and Yang for everyone to watch.


    The onlookers were shocked. Even ordinary people were amazed when they heard Fengtian''s picture of yin and Yang.


    For a while, the reputation of Yin-Yang school and Mohist School soared. Although the yin-yang school was defeated, it was still glorious.

 Chapter 1295

    "Tai Chi, yin and Yang, Fengtian!"


    In a dark room, the little mage who had just succeeded Yin and Yang looked at the two pieces of paper in front of him with firm eyes. The death of master made him mature overnight.


    Chang''an city''s legendary fantasy version of the hundred family struggle came from him. Under his manipulation, although the yin-yang family failed, its reputation was better and its luck was further, which gave him the strength to turn the tables.


    "Shifu, your sacrifice was not in vain. Before you died, you realized that Fengtian had made the yin-yang family go further, and with the help of the wisdom of the Mohist school, you made the Taiji yin-yang map come into the world. Now the theory of the yin-yang family has become more and more perfect, and the damaged Qi has been made up. It''s time to continue to deduce the prophecy of the prosperous age." the little mage''s face coagulated and said again.


    At this moment, when the fire light in the room is bright, it is impressively full of Yin-Yang runes and Tai Chi yin-yang diagram. No one thought that at this moment, the yin-yang family should deduce the prophecy of the prosperous age.


    The little mage said something in his mouth and kept turning the yin-yang wheel in front of him. Originally, his knowledge was not enough to create the prosperous prophecy. However, now yin-yang Zi has created the prosperous prophecy ahead of time, supported by the yin-yang theory carried by heaven and the yin-yang Tai Chi diagram of Mohist Zi, the little mage reluctantly deduced it.


    "Nvzhuchang, Fengtian, Taiji, yin and Yang."


    The little mage worked hard to deduce. This time, he tried his best to win the fortune of the yin-yang family. If successful, the battle between the yin-yang family and the Mohist family has not ended.


    However, the little mage still had a shallow background and forced to deduce the prophecy of the prosperous world. Finally, he was reluctant. After a long time, he stared at the female leader Chang and fengtianyun in front of him, but got nothing. Finally, he turned his eyes to the Taiji yin-yang map created by Merton.


    "Cathode Yang generates, anode Yin generates,...... the so-called Tai Chi." the little mage looked at Mohist Zi''s explanation of Tai Chi''s yin-yang diagram and fell into meditation.


    "Only the cathode is born in the place where Yang is the most prosperous, and the place where Yang is the most prosperous in the world is the imperial palace. How can the women in the palace......" suddenly, the little mage moved in his heart, suddenly rose up and turned to look at the female leader Chang and Fengtian of the prosperous age.


    "Lady, I''m happy!" the little mage rearranged the words, just like being enlightened.


    "I know that the imperial palace is the place where Yang Qi is the most prosperous in the world, and the rear palace is the place where Yin Qi is the most prosperous in the world. The cathode Yang is born, and the anode Yin is born. The imperial palace is the place where it is most impossible to achieve the prosperity of the female Lord in the world. However, it is difficult to break the will of heaven. The female Lord is carried out by heaven, turning the impossible into the possible, and is destined to achieve a great cause."


    The little mage was so excited that he couldn''t restrain himself. On the basis of his master and with the help of the wisdom of Mohist, he came closer to the prophecy of prosperous times, and launched the prophecy of troubled times.


    "After Tang III, the female Lord Wu had the world on his behalf."


    The prosperity and decline, no one thought that the prophecy of the prosperous times should be promoted after the realization of the prophecy of the troubled times.


    "Master, I have lived up to my master''s expectations. Once the prophecy of troubled times comes out, I will surely defeat the Mohist school over time."


    The little mage looked at the chaotic prophecy he finally deduced and proudly walked out of the room. At the moment, the sky was bright. However, it was amazing that Taibai star was still clearly visible in the sky.


    "As soon as the prophecy of troubled times comes out, it will be seen in the daytime, the Yin and Yang will reverse, and the sky will drop strange phenomena. This is the will of heaven!" the little mage''s faith is becoming more and more firm. This time, the Yin and Yang family will be carried by heaven, which will surely defeat the Mohist school.


    According to the practice of the yin-yang family, once the prophecy comes out, it means that the heaven machine has been operated. The yin-yang family only needs to sit and reap the benefits, but the little mage shook his head.


    "Today is different from the past. This time, the opponent of the yin-yang school is the Mohist school. With the Mohist School and the former female leader Wu Meiniang, even the prophecy of the troubled times is not safe in the world. Master is a forewarning. If you want to defeat the Mohist school, the yin-yang school must come to an end in person." the little mage''s eyes are firm. Now the Mohist school is in great luck. The little mage thinks that the method of yin-yang is not as good as master, Not to mention better than mojiazi, so he must layout in advance.


    While it was still early, the little mage went out of the dark room, came to Chang''an City, turned left and right, and finally came to a printing bookstore. There were many children of yin and Yang family. Seeing the little mage coming forward, he quickly saluted.


    "See mage."


    The little mage nodded solemnly and asked, "how''s the thing I asked you to do?"


    A young man of Yin Yang family dressed up as a storyteller respectfully said, "inform the master that the new book secret history you want to order to print has been completed, and only the last step is to compile the volume."


    This man was the storyteller who spread the mysterious version of the dispute among 100 families in Chang''an city. He immediately handed the little mage a stack of thick manuscripts.


    "The Mohist ink technique is really easy to use. Since it has been published in such a short time, it''s no wonder that the Mohist''s luck is so strong." the little mage nodded slightly. It''s no luck that the Mohist can win. Now he saw the excellence of the Mohist ink technique with his own eyes and paid more attention to the Mohist in his heart.


    "Little mage, don''t be careless. The old mage despised the Mohist school, so he hated the defeat." the storyteller admonished.


    The little mage nodded and said, "my mage knows that yin and Yang families can fail, but they can''t fail again. This time, my mage realized the prophecy of troubled times, which is to avenge my master."


    The children of the yin-yang family nodded heavily. The yin-yang family has subverted one opponent after another for thousands of years. Now they are defeated by the fledgling Mohist school. How can they be reconciled.


    At present, the little mage solemnly came forward, found a few movable characters in the printing, and then pressed them on the paper. This prophecy of troubled times appeared on the paper: after the three dynasties of Tang Dynasty, the female Lord Wu had the world.


    "Prophecy in troubled times."


    The children of yin and Yang families looked at the prophecies of troubled times in front of them and couldn''t help showing an excited look. Once upon a time, the prophecies of yin and Yang families spread in the world. Among them, the prophecies of troubled times are the most powerful and can change dynasties. Similarly, the prophecies of troubled times are also the most powerful mace of yin and Yang families, which is also the ability of young mages to create prophecies at a young age, This makes the people of yin and Yang take it orally.


    The little mage was full of pride and said in a loud voice, "publish the secret history into a book, transport the secrets to all places and distribute them secretly. I want to make the prophecies of troubled times spread all over the Tang Dynasty in the shortest time."


    The so-called secret history is the lace gossip of the royal family of the current Dynasty, so as to attract people''s reading and increase circulation. The real killing move is to secretly spread the prophecy of troubled times.


    "Yes!" the children of yin and Yang family received orders one after another.


    At present, the children of yin and Yang family act separately, compile and load the well printed secret history, and go in different directions. Soon, the whole book printing workshop is empty.

 Chapter 1296

    After doing a good job in dealing with the aftermath, yin and Yang stood in an empty workshop and fell into a tangle. According to his arrangement, these children of yin and Yang family would immediately hide and disappear after distributing the secret history. However, yin and Yang children could continue to hide, but he could not leave Chang''an city.


    Just like Yin and Yang Zi''s judgment, once he leaves Chang''an City, the so-called prophecy of troubled times may be broken by the branches destroyed by hundreds of schools such as mojiazi, and even make wedding clothes for others. Only he stays in Chang''an City and secretly promotes the progress of prophecy of troubled times.


    Now the Mohist school is at its zenith. His only chance to win is to hide in the dark. If he doesn''t expose himself like master, he can be invincible. However, with the lessons of yin and Yang Zi, he will be investigated by the Legalists if he stays in Chang''an City, which makes him like a mountain in his back.


    The little mage fell into deep thought. With the presence of the legalist Di Renjie, he would be punished in Chang''an City sooner or later, but he could not leave Chang''an city. For now, he needs to find a perfect hiding place.


    The little mage thought for a long time, and finally turned his eyes to the diagram of Taiji Yin and Yang.


    "Cathode positive, anode negative."


    In order to avoid the pursuit of the Legalists, we also need to promote the prophecy of troubled times, which is better than the Mo family. There is only one place in the world that perfectly agrees with his requirements. Finally, the little mage''s eyes turned to the most Yang Qi in Chang''an city.


    palace!


    Legalists can trace the world. There is only one place in the world that is beyond the power of Legalists. That is the imperial palace. Since the imperial palace is the most Yin place in the world, the female Lord can be born only when the cathode Yang is born. At the same time, it is also the best place for him to get close to the female Lord and promote the prophecy of troubled times.


    However, the harem is the most Yin place in the world, and the cathode Yang is born. The imperial palace is also the most Yang place in the world. The anode Yin is born. There is the most feminine man in the world, that is, the eunuch.


    Even ordinary men would never walk into the palace if they were not desperate. However, today''s little mage''s mind is full of the fanatical spirit of dedication to the yin-yang family.


    After a long time, the little mage finally picked up the sharp blade and waved it hard. At that moment, a scream came.


    The little mage said in a painful and cruel voice: "you are good at the art of yin and Yang, Mohist son. However, this time, I will reverse Yin and yang to see how you find my real body."


    With the little mage entering the palace according to the arranged way, the whole yin-yang family lay dormant, and there was a little Eunuch in the imperial palace.


    Although the yin-yang family began to dormant, the aftermath of the yin-yang family did not subside.


    With the mysterious version of the contention of a hundred schools of thought spread all over Chang''an City, and with the business travel spread to the whole Tang Dynasty, with this wave, a book called secret history spread in the Tang Dynasty almost at the same time.


    The most attractive part of the secret history is the mysterious palace history. It records the court gossip one by one, which satisfies the common people''s heart for the Royal gossip. No one will take it seriously. However, the emergence of a prophecy in troubled times immediately added a few mysteries to the secret history.


    "After Tang III, the female Lord Wu had the world on his behalf."


    If it was in the past, someone must scoff at it and say, "women can also be emperor! It''s as ridiculous as the sun rises in the West.


    However, now the yin-yang family has issued the prophecy of prosperity, and Wu Meiniang, the first disciple of the Mohist family, has realized the prosperity as a woman. The first prophecy of prosperity issued by the yin-yang family has been realized. Now the second prophecy of troubled times issued by the yin-yang family has to be cautious. Has Wanyi been realized?


    Cautious people were secretly shocked when they saw the secret history. They quickly destroyed the secret history and kept silent, while bold people wantonly spread this prophecy of troubled times and soon spread it to Chang''an city.


    "Lord, something bad!"


    Mo San came in a hurry and handed Merton a secret history. He was responsible for the intelligence information of the Mohist school. He got the news in time. He immediately knew that the event was bad and began to report to Li Shimin.


    "Secret history"


    With a great reputation in mind, as like as two peas of a prophecy, he looked at the book of the most troubled times in the history.


    "Have you ever traced it," Murton frowned.


    Mo San shook his head and said, "the other party is extremely cunning. After releasing the secret history, it disappeared without a trace. The Mohists tracked down the books and finally found a printing bookstore in Chang''an city. People can go to the room early. From the perspective of means alone, I''m afraid it was the new yin-yang son."


    "Yin and Yang family!" Merton sighed in his heart. The Yin and Yang family was really difficult. Although the prosperous prophecy said that the female master Chang was directly pointing to the Mohist family, it was only the rise of women''s rights and did not involve rebellion. Merton took advantage of the situation to crack it.


    This prophecy of troubled times directly puts the Mohist School in an awkward position. Although the Mohist school has escaped from the female Lord Chang, if there is no momentum of female Lord Chang, how can it follow the trend to launch the female Lord to have the world on behalf of the world. Moreover, the Mohist school can realize the prophecy of prosperous times and female Lord Chang, isn''t it also capable of realizing the prophecy of troubled times.


    You should know that about the rebellion and usurpation of power, let alone there is solid evidence, that is, ability is an original sin, and Mohism happens to have this ability.


    "Hou ye, what should Mohism do?" Mo Sany said with a sad face.


    But Merton smiled and said, "women have never been emperor since ancient times. If the yin-yang family wants to rely on a prophecy of troubled times, it will shake the status of the Mohist school. That''s a big mistake. The more this time, the Mohist school needs to be calm and can''t mess with itself."


    "What the Marquis said is very." Mo San said calmly.


    "The yin-yang school thinks that if the Mohist school is bright and the yin-yang school is dark, there will be no way to take him. However, he doesn''t know where the sun goes, and the haze will dissipate. This time, the Mohist journal will once again respond to the prophecies of troubled times, count the disasters of prophecies in history, and denounce the yin-yang school for their own private interests and for the purpose of cholera in the Tang Dynasty." Merton Lang said that last time, The Mohist school will publicly respond to the prophecy of prosperous times. If the Mohist school does not publicly respond to the prophecy of troubled times this time, I''m afraid it will be used by intentional people.


    Hiding in the dark has hidden advantages, and there are also obvious convenience in the open. Now the Mohist school should make use of the advantages of ink journals to publicly denounce the rebellious behavior of Yin-Yang family and weaken the destructive power of prophecies in troubled times to the greatest extent. This is yangmou.


    "Yes! Marquis!" Mo San nodded solemnly and immediately took orders.


    After Mo San left, Princess Changle came out of the back hall. With a sad face, she said, "why don''t you go into the palace immediately and report the secret history to your father to eliminate your father''s wariness."


    As a royal, she naturally knows how taboo the royal family is about such things.


    Merton shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "even as a husband, you think the emperor will not get the news. Maybe now his majesty is watching the secret history."


    "Ah! What should I do?" Princess Changle was surprised.


    Merton said calmly, "Your Majesty is an emperor for thousands of years. Naturally, you will not be confused by the small hand of Yin-Yang family. Don''t worry, your majesty will distinguish right from wrong and let the yin-yang family return without success."


    Under the appeasement of Merton, Princess Changle left at ease. Looking at the figure of Princess Changle leaving, Merton immediately looked dignified. Since history repeats itself, he clearly remembers that Li Shimin became a tiger in history and killed Li Junxian unjustly.


    It can be seen that Li Shimin did not distinguish right from wrong about imperial power.

 Chapter 1297

    "After the three Tang Dynasties, there was a lord and a queen, and there was a world."


    In the Imperial Palace, the Taiji hall was silent. Li Shimin couldn''t help frowning when he looked at the secret history in front of him.


    Although the Tang Dynasty was at its zenith and no one could see any sign of national subjugation, Li Shimin had to guard against it. He thought how powerful the Sui Dynasty was at the beginning, which was better than today''s Tang Dynasty. In the end, he died of the second emperor and the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Have you ever found the person who spread the secret history behind it?" Li Shimin shouted coldly.


    Li Junxian, the commander of Baiqi, bowed and said, "tell your majesty that the person who spread the secret history is very cunning. Once the secret history is thrown out, he will hide immediately. However, Baiqi still got the secret report. This is the handwriting of the new yin-yang son of the yin-yang family. The purpose is to spread this prophecy of troubled times."


    "Yin Yang family!"


    Li Shimin was cold in his heart. These hundreds of schools didn''t even want their lives for their own theories. The former yin-yang son who poisoned himself not long ago was an example. It wasn''t long before the new yin-yang son couldn''t wait to jump out.


    "Moreover, according to the investigation of Baiqi, the mysterious version of the hundred schools of thought contending that spread in Chang''an city some time ago came from this person. Its purpose is to make the yin-yang family''s Qi soar and make up for the lost fortune lost by the Mohist school." Li Junxian reported.


    "The yin-yang family is good at the art of yin and Yang and the way of Qi transportation. It can be seen that the new yin-yang son has made up for the way of transportation in a short time." Li Shimin frowned. Such a difficult man made prophecies about troubled times. How can he not be on pins and needles? In terms of his faith in Qi transportation, the royal family can be said to be the first, because successive dynasties are very concerned about their own national transportation, Moreover, the prosperous prophecy has been fulfilled, and the reappearance of the chaotic prophecy can not make Li Shimin taboo.


    Li Junxian said in his heart: "tell your majesty, according to folk rumors, the yin-yang family can create up to one prophecy in a short time, and the main reason why the yin-yang family can connect two prophecies in a short time is that the former yin-yang son created the art of Yin-Yang carried by heaven on his deathbed and the master Mo created the integrated Tai Chi yin-yang map."


    "Fengtian carrier, Taiji Yin Yang diagram!" Li Shimin nodded silently. His vision was outstanding. Naturally, he knew the brilliance of Fengtian carrier and Taiji Yin Yang diagram. The contention of a hundred schools of thought certainly brought him a lot of surprises, but there were also a lot of surprises. I''m afraid this is one of the sequelae of the contention of a hundred schools of thought.


    "Send orders, continue to track down the yin-yang family, and report to me whenever there is trouble." Li Shimin shouted coldly.


    "Yes!" Li Jun replied with envy.


    Li Junxian withdrew from the Tai Chi hall and did not leave. Instead, he continued to guard Li Shimin outside the imperial palace. This is also the reason why he won Li Shimin''s trust and devoted himself to his duties.


    Soon the sun in the sky was slanting to the West. Li Junxian stretched out and was ready to finish the day''s work. Suddenly, a burst of noise attracted his attention.


    Li Junxian frowned and waved his hand. He led a team of palace guards to check, but found that it was a group of working eunuchs pointing at the sky.


    "What''s the noise here?" Li Jun shouted coldly.


    A little eunuch pointed to the western sky with a frightened face and said, "tell the general, the sky has a vision. It''s too white to appear in the day. This is the fifth day."


    Li Jun''s envious eyes coagulated and stared at the western sky. Even if the sun didn''t set, the Taibai star in the sky was still clearly visible, and his cold sweat couldn''t help dripping.


    The guard of the long night is extremely long, and the stars in the sky are the best company. Over time, he has known the stars in the sky like the back of his hand. He can''t help thinking about the status of Taibai and the significance of the emergence of the day. In particular, the yin-yang family has just released the prophecy of troubled times, which is too coincidental.


    "Don''t talk nonsense. If you spread rumors, be careful of your head." Li Junxian threatened. He was guarding in the palace. Naturally, he knew that first, a group of eunuchs nodded and scattered in a hurry.


    Li Junxian instinctively knew that he could not participate too much in the prophecy of troubled times. He looked at the eunuchs and was suddenly helpless. If it was normal, he would pretend not to see it, but the eunuchs had shouted out. In addition, Li Shimin just ordered him to report immediately if there was anything unusual. If he pretended to ignore it, he might be involved in it in the future, Suspected of deliberately concealing.


    At the moment, Li Junxian could only reluctantly go towards the Tai Chi hall. However, he didn''t know that among the leaving eunuchs, a eunuch showed a strange smile.


    "The Taibai star appears in the day."


    Listening to Li Junxian''s report, Li Shimin frowned, walked out of the palace and looked up at the white star clearly visible in the western sky during the day.


    "Even comets are normal astronomical phenomena, and so is taibaixing in the daytime. There is no need to make a fuss," Li Shimin said coldly.


    "Yes!"


    Li Junxian bowed down and was about to step down when Li Shimin''s voice came.


    "Send someone to invite Taishi Li Chunfeng."


    Li Junxian felt a chill in his heart. He immediately knew that Li Shimin was not as light as he appeared, so he quickly took the order to leave.


    "Wei Chen Li Chunfeng, see your majesty!"


    Li Chunfeng, who was soon summoned, came to Li Shimin. As the leader of Taoism, he naturally knew that Li Shimin''s intention to find him was only related to imperial power and celestial phenomena. If he was not careful, Taoism would be deeply involved.


    "In recent days, the Taibai star has appeared frequently in the daytime, and the eunuchs in the palace are frightened. I don''t know what the Taishi bureau understands?" Li Shimin said bluntly without concealing.


    Li Chunfeng had long known that there would be such a question and had responded to it. He replied: "tell your majesty that the appearance of the Taibai star in the daytime is a phenomenon every year. It is not surprising that the heavenly supervisor has recorded it every year. The minister did not disturb your majesty."


    "Every year!" Li Shimin was stunned and looked at Li Jun Xian.


    In a panic, Li Junxian quickly apologized and said, "Wei Chen is vulgar and doesn''t understand the sky. His majesty is surprised."


    Li Shimin knew that Li Junxian was loyal and could not be blamed. He hummed coldly, "you step down first and send orders to the palace. This is a normal astronomical phenomenon. There is no need to panic. Those who dare to deceive the public with evil words will be severely punished."


    "Yes!"


    Li Junxian quickly retreated in fear.


    After Li Junxian retired, Li Shimin looked back and solemnly looked at Li Chun and said, "has Taishi Ling ever heard of the prophecy of troubled times!"


    At one end of his body, Li Chunfeng solemnly said, "I have just heard of it, and I haven''t had time to report it to your majesty."


    "After Tang III, the female leader, King Wu, has the world. Is this female leader Wu Meiniang?" Li Shimin said coldly.

 Chapter 1298

    "Wu Meiniang!"


    Li Chunfeng felt nervous. He accidentally touched a piece of paper on his sleeve. What he drew was a diagram of Taiji Yin and Yang, which was just given to him by Merton.


    Even to be exact, it was given to Taoism. Merton naturally knew that once the prophecy of troubled times came out, Mohism would not escape the relationship, and Taoism played an important role in it. One of its words could help Mohism tide over the crisis and create so much trouble for Mohism. Therefore, Merton handed over the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram to Taoism. After all, this Tai Chi yin-yang diagram was created by Mohists, He is naturally qualified to deal with it.


    "Wu Meiniang is the female leader of prophecy in prosperous times, not the female leader of prophecy in troubled times," Li Chunfeng said solemnly.


    Li Chunfeng finally failed to refuse Merton''s temptation and did something to help the Mohist school. After all, the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram is too important for Taoism. Yin-yang family and Taoism share the same vein. The Tai Chi yin-yang diagram can also further the theory of Taoism, greatly increase the reputation of Taoism and attribute the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram to Taoism, which Li Chunfeng can''t refuse anyway.


    "What''s the solution?" Li Shimin frowned. According to the existing clues, the biggest suspect of the female leader King Wu is Wu Meiniang. If Wu Meiniang can be killed in advance to solve the hidden dangers of Datang, Li Shimin will do so without hesitation. However, Wu Meiniang is not easy to kill. There are too many causes and consequences involved behind it. He must confirm that it is correct.


    First, Wu Meiniang was after the former dynasty, and soon after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, many ministers had contacts with the former dynasty. If Wu Meiniang was killed without authorization, it would certainly cause concussion in the court. Second, Wu Meiniang was after Xun GUI, and her father warrior Yu made great contributions to the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Third, Wu Meiniang was the senior sister of the Mohist school, and the revival of the Mohist school was too good for the Tang Dynasty, Once Wu Meiniang is killed and the revival of Mohism is interrupted, the current good situation of Datang will be wasted.


    Not to mention that her daughter, Princess Changle, regarded her as if she were her own, and had love and hate entangled with her son. It was also a popular version of Hua Mulan in the Tang Dynasty. All these made Li Shimin throw a rat''s nest egg, but deepened her doubts about Wu Meiniang''s identity as a mistress.


    Li Chunfeng explained: "because Wu Meiniang is the direct cause of Yin-Yang Zi''s death, if the new yin-yang Zi wants to convince the public, it is impossible to push Wu Meiniang to the throne. Even Weichen thinks that the female Lord Wu is the strategy of Yin-Yang Zi to kill with a knife. After all, only when Wu Meiniang dies, the yin-yang family can regain the lost luck and revenge the Revenge of being defeated by the Mohist school."


    "What if Yin and Yang family''s empty city plan?" Li Shimin frowned.


    Seeing this, Li Chunfeng gritted his teeth and said, "the reason why Wei Chen decided that Wu Meiniang was not the female leader Wu Wang, but because Wu Meiniang refused to enter the palace. There is only one way to become the female leader Wu Wang. People in the palace are rebellious. Now Wu Meiniang has lost her way to enter the palace. Naturally, it is impossible to become the female leader Wu Wang. If your majesty suspects Wu Meiniang, I''m afraid she is right in the heart of the yin-yang family."


    Li Shimin said bitterly, "how can I easily fall into the trap of the yin-yang family? Wu Meiniang is the Hua Mulan of the Tang Dynasty. It''s too late for me to use it."


    "It''s nothing for a woman to be called emperor. Maybe the female Lord Wu is the biggest empty city plan of the yin-yang family, or it''s not necessarily that she is a man." Li Chunfeng said again and led the topic away from Wu Meiniang.


    Li Shimin nodded. He didn''t believe that women could be called emperors. After all, this was unprecedented since ancient times. In addition, most of the women who could be in power in history were from the harem, and the mother was strong and the son was weak. Now this phenomenon can''t happen in the Tang Dynasty.


    Li Chunfeng was relieved when he saw this. The Mohist school gave the Taoist Taiji yin-yang diagram, and he saved the first disciple of the Mohist school, which can be regarded as a change of Merton''s favor.


    "In that case, how do you think I should prevent chaos? Prophecies can''t be prevented. I''ll kill all suspected people." Li Shimin asked, not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. It''s related to his own country, and Li Shimin immediately became extremely Iron-blooded.


    Li Chunfeng hurriedly stopped and said, "as ordered by heaven, the king will not die. His majesty forced to kill, so he can only catch some innocent people! Many years later, he is old and may have more compassion. It may be a disaster or shallow. If his majesty kills him by chance, God will have another more venomous person. I''m afraid there will be no descendants of Li by then."


    Li Shimin can''t help it. If the descendants of Li are extinct, he will have no chance in the Tang Dynasty. At present, he can''t help but throw a rat''s deterrent.


    "Taoism and yin-yang school share the same origin. Haven''t they cracked the method of prophecy in troubled times?" Li Shimin was angry and defeated the Tao.


    Li Chunfeng could not help being embarrassed. Naturally, he didn''t want Taoism to be involved in it. He said in his heart, "it''s necessary to untie the bell when tying the bell. Since Mohism can defeat yin-yang family once, it can defeat yin-yang family a second time."


    The Mohist family, the so-called friends who die don''t die. Don''t blame the poor this time. After all, this matter is destined to have something to do with your Mohist family.


    "Mohist school!" Li Shimin thought. The yin-yang school is good at the way of Qi and fortune, but it has planted a big somersault in Mohist school. Since Mohist school can realize the prophecy of prosperous times, it may also solve the prophecy of troubled times.


    Just as Li Shimin was about to summon Merton, suddenly Li Junxian told him outside the door: "I inform your majesty that Marquis Merton came to deliver wine for your majesty."


    "Wine?"


    Li Shimin was stunned. You know, Datang has just issued a prohibition on alcohol. Merton committed a crime against the wind and sent him wine. He will accept it. There will be an impeachment by the censor the next day. If not, he will accept it! The Mohist''s solution to thousands of worries is a first-class good wine. He has little left. It''s really difficult to refuse this temptation.


    "Announce him to come in!" Li Shimin said angrily. The boy didn''t know to send the wine secretly.


    Li Junxian said helplessly, "I''m afraid Mo hou can''t leave. Now he has been surrounded by civil servants and military generals."


    "I can''t leave. I want to see what tricks Merton plays!" Li Shimin suddenly got up and took Li Chunfeng out of the palace. If he was a few steps later, I''m afraid there wouldn''t be much wine left.


    Out of the Tai Chi hall, Li Shimin really saw a group of generals around the carriage. Merton ran left and right, trying to keep the wine, while the civil servants were cold faced and prepared to impeach.


    "Wait for your majesty!" seeing Li Shimin''s arrival, the people saluted one after another.


    "Exemption, you are all officials in the court. It''s ridiculous." Li Shimin saw Cheng Yaojin quietly extending his hand to the wine box and drank coldly.


    Cheng Yaojin took back his hand angrily and said discontentedly, "Your Majesty doesn''t know. The old minister has been sober for a year. I suddenly see some impolite wine. Please forgive me."


    Li Shimin doesn''t believe Cheng Yaojin''s crying for poverty at all. He can''t stop drinking for a year. Based on his understanding of Cheng Yaojin, this slippery old man has no less wine than him. He can''t finish drinking in another year.


    "The old minister impeached Mo to sacrifice wine, ignored the prohibition order and made wine without permission, which is more intended to flatter his majesty." Wei Zheng said with a righteous face.


    Merton quickly shouted, "Lord Wei has wronged Momou. This is a new wine made in Dengzhou this year. It is made of grape fruit and does not violate the prohibition."


    "In that case, let''s break up!" Li Shimin waved his hand and scattered the ministers, ready to swallow the wine alone.


    However, how could Cheng Yaojin and his group not know Li Shimin''s plan? They pitifully insisted that they had been banned for a year and wanted to share a glass of water and wine. Even Wei Zheng tacitly agreed to this, because he had been banned for a year.


    "The order goes down. We''ll have a banquet in the palace today. We won''t return until we get drunk." Li Shimin suddenly felt hurt. He knew that he couldn''t get rid of these drunks without bleeding recently. Moreover, he hasn''t had a banquet with his ministers for a year. He just took this opportunity to talk about the past.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" all the ministers cheered. They don''t care about a glass of water and wine, but now the form of the court is strange. It''s never wrong to take the opportunity to get in touch with your majesty.

 Chapter 1299

    Palace Banquet.


    Although the banquet was a temporary idea, it was the imperial palace after all. It was still full of silk and bamboo strings, enchanting songs and dances, not to mention delicious food. It was full of delicious food.


    Of course, there is also the grape wine brewed by the Mohists in Dengzhou, which adheres to the prohibition throughout the country. Even palace ministers dare not drink wantonly, and tonight is a rare opportunity to indulge in drinking openly.


    "Bang!"


    With an air explosion, the Cylindrical cork was pulled out, and the bright red liquor swayed in the transparent glass bottle, emitting a intoxicating light under the light. At the same time, an intoxicating aroma of wine appeared in the hall.


    "Good wine!"


    Cheng Yaojin takes the lead in cheering. He can''t wait to pick up his glass to drink, but Merton stops him.


    "Uncle Cheng is a little slow. After opening the Dengzhou wine, you can''t drink it directly, but you need to wake up," Merton said.


    "Sober up? Is this wine sleeping?" Cheng Yaojin glared.


    The other generals burst into laughter and were so happy that they winked at Merton.


    Merton explained: "sobering up is just an image statement. According to Mohist research, wine contains a component that is slightly bitter and astringent because it is brewed by grapes. If it is exposed to the air and shaken gently, it can neutralize this component and make the taste of grape wine better, especially new wine, which needs sobering up more."


    Merton finished, took out the glass container with a big belly already prepared, poured the wine into it and shook it gently.


    "I haven''t heard of such a saying." Li Shimin was surprised. He also often drank grape wine. He hasn''t heard of sobering up.


    "This is the combination of the experience of western region winemakers and Mohist ink skills. This is the first time in the Tang Dynasty to brew wine in large quantities. Naturally, we can''t take it lightly. After many experiments, we came up with this method of sobering up unexpectedly." Merton replied that sobering up is not a mystery, but a real need, and the more new wine is, the more it needs to sober up.


    "So it is?" the crowd suddenly realized that they were looking forward to it.


    Soon, a quarter of an hour passed. Merton raised the decanter and poured the wine to the people himself. The bright red wine was poured into the transparent glass,


    "Please!" Merton got up to propose a toast.


    When they saw the hunting heart, they raised their glasses and drank.


    "Good wine!"


    Li Shimin drank it up and couldn''t help praising it.


    This is not Li Shimin''s deliberate praise, but his sincere intention. Wine first came from the western regions and is naturally rare in ordinary people''s homes. However, it is very common for these palace ministers. The upper class of the Tang Dynasty is very popular in drinking grape wine, and some even have a lot of wine skills.


    Merton thumbed up and said, "Your Majesty, this is the first batch of excellent grapes in Dengzhou, and it is made by the highest and super winemaker in Gaochang. Both the appearance and taste are better than the original Gaochang grape wine.


    "I didn''t expect that Datang could also be rich in grape wine that is not inferior to that of the western regions. In particular, this method of sobering up makes this year''s new wine taste not inferior to the old wine." Cheng Yaojin was also surprised.


    Other ministers also nodded one after another. The grape wine produced by the Mohists really made them full of praise. Of course, there are also many sobering laws and prohibition orders.


    Merton said proudly, "in the past, a barrel of western region grape wine was expensive after it was transported to Chang''an city. Now our Datang can also be rich in grape wine. Over time, this originally high grape wine can also be placed on the table of ordinary people."


    Wei Zheng drank a mouthful of grape wine. This time, he didn''t give advice. After all, wine is made of grapes and doesn''t waste food. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty has explicitly banned the use of food to make wine, which has aroused discontent among the people. If the Tang Dynasty can produce wine in mass, it can also alleviate the opposition of the people.


    "You''ll win!" Li Shimin raised his glass to invite him.


    All the ministers raised their glasses and drank. For a while, there was a crisscross of wine and Dendrobium on the hall, coupled with Miaoman''s court music and dance, and the guests and hosts were happy for a while.


    "The Mohist School''s ink skills are really extraordinary. According to folk rumors, the Mohist school has realized the prosperity of the prophecy female master in the prosperous age and forcibly seized the luck of the yin-yang family for hundreds of years. In this way, the revival of the Mohist school is just around the corner. It won''t take long to restore the grand occasion of the pre-Qin period." suddenly, a bad voice came from the civil servants.


    Suddenly, the whole banquet was quiet. Merton turned his head and saw that Yu Zhining was there.


    "Sure enough, there is no good feast!"


    Merton sighed in his heart and retorted, "the yin-yang school is not terrible, and the prophecy is not to be feared. The real fear is the ignorant people who follow suit. The Mohist school never believes in the theory of Qi luck. The revival of the Mohist school needs the struggle of the Mohist school, but it does not rely on any illusory Qi luck."


    When Yu Zhining heard Merton''s irony, he was not angry but happy. He continued to excite the general with words and said, "so, the Mohist school has never paid attention to the yin-yang family."


    Merton nodded without hesitation: "since ancient times, no one has ever achieved great cause with conspiracy and rumors. The means of Yin-Yang family to spread rumors secretly is only the itch of scabies, which can''t control the overall situation."


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. He was the emperor who participated in the founding of the country. Naturally, he knew this truth.


    Yu Zhining said coldly, "what if the female leader Chang is the general trend?"


    Li Shimin''s heart sank. If the female Lord Chang is the general trend, the so-called female lord King Wu will also follow the trend.


    Merton sighed and said, "I know what adult Yu refers to is the prophecy of troubled times. If you are proficient in the theory of 100 schools, you will find that the so-called prophecy of troubled times is just nonsense, because the theory of Yin-Yang school is full of loopholes."


    "The theory of yin and Yang school is full of loopholes." suddenly everyone was in an uproar. No one thought that the Mo family would talk after drinking.


    "First, the Yin and Yang school is proficient in celestial phenomena, but the celestial phenomena he observes are those visible to human flesh eyes. If you use the telescope of xuandu temple, you will find that the celestial phenomena visible to the naked eye are just a drop in the ocean." Merton turns his eyes to Li Chunfeng.


    Li Chunfeng nodded and got up and said, "yes, according to Tao, the stars in the night sky are hundreds of times more than those visible to the naked eye."


    The appearance of so many stars is to subvert the previous astrological theory, which is why he helped the Mohist school, because he doesn''t value the yin-yang school at all.


    "This is only the stars observed under the current situation. If we continue to improve the telescope in the future, I''m afraid the stars observed by the naked eye are just a drop in the ocean." Merton pointed out the window and continued to mend his knife.


    People can''t help but take a breath. If there are so few stars observed by the yin-yang family, wouldn''t the yin-yang family theory based on the existing stars be a big problem.


    "Second, the most important reason why the yin-yang family has repeatedly made prophecies about the troubled times and intended to go against them is the theory of five virtues. The yin-yang family believes that the five virtues are born and overcome each other, and believes that the world''s Dynasty will eventually perish in only a few hundred years. This is why the yin-yang family has repeatedly made prophecies about the troubled times at the most dangerous time of the dynasty, added fuel to the flames, and got away with it several times, which makes the yin-yang family more rampant. They believe that The Mohists believe that only quantitative change can lead to qualitative change. As long as the imperial court pays attention to solving the main contradictions of the Tang Dynasty, it can be passed on to all ages. "Merton Lang said.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. The yin-yang school firmly believed that the Tang Dynasty would perish for hundreds of years, and even did not hesitate to add fuel to the flames. The Mohist School firmly believed that the Tang Dynasty could inherit for all ages. It was natural to know at a glance who should be preferred.


    "Having said that, your Mohist theory of contradiction does not insist that all things will eventually perish, and so does Datang." Yu Zhining said sour.


    Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "although I don''t expect the Tang Dynasty to inherit for all generations, I''ll be satisfied as long as it can surpass the 25 generations of the Han Dynasty."


    Li Shimin talked about more than twenty-five generations, but in fact he was very excited about Merton''s idea of inheriting for all ages. After all, which emperor''s ultimate dream is to inherit for all ages.


    "From the perspective of Mo Hou, how to solve the prophecy of Yin-Yang family in troubled times." Li Chunfeng asked Li Shimin what he thought, and immediately everyone focused on Mo dun.

 Chapter 1300

    "Open the prophecy of troubled times!" Merton said without hesitation.


    "Open the prophecy of troubled times!" all officials were surprised. Everyone avoided the prophecy of troubled times. The ink family did the opposite and made the prophecy of troubled times public.


    "It''s nonsense. The so-called rumors stop at the wise. The prophecy of the yin-yang family in troubled times is nothing, and it will dissipate automatically in a short time. If the prophecy of the troubled times is made public, wouldn''t it make people all over the world believe in the prophecy of the troubled times?" Yu Zhining retorted.


    Merton said with a bitter smile: "rumors stop at the wise, that is, inaction. At the beginning, I''m afraid that the prophecy of the yellow scarf army ended at the wise, and finally intensified, and finally led to great disaster. Not long ago, the Mohist school faced the prosperous prophecy, but did the opposite. It was lucky to defeat the yin-yang family by publishing the prosperous prophecy in the ink journal."


    Li Shimin can''t help but hesitate. According to his past experience, this kind of thing can only be traced secretly, but Merton''s method is just the opposite, and he has a successful experience.


    "You mean open prophecy of troubled times." Li Shimin frowned.


    "Yes, Wei Chen publicly denounced the conspiracy of the yin-yang family by using ink magazines, and counted the yin-yang family''s use of prophecies in troubled times as evidence of the crime of harming the world, so as to prevent the people all over the world from blindly following and superstitious prophecies in troubled times." Merton nodded.


    "Can this work?" the ministers doubted.


    Merton confidently said: "Of course, it''s feasible. The prophecies of the yin-yang family are conspiracies and rumors. False rumors eventually lead to great disaster. At first, the Mohist family was afraid of the attack of prophecies. However, the Mohist family was not afraid of the shadow. Finally, they chose to face it directly and respond openly to the female leader Chang. Only then did they find that the yin-yang family was just a paper tiger. You really thought that the Tang Dynasty would die for three generations, Will a female emperor take his place? "


    "The prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty is coming, how can I die for three generations! Well, today I will personally meet the yin-yang family to see what tricks he can play?" Li Shimin was aroused and stood up on the table.


    Now they have no way to counterattack the yin-yang family, and it is not a good way to publicly refute the prophecy of troubled times.


    "Wei Chen will also order Confucian journals to write articles to refute prophecies in troubled times." Yu Zhining can only agree with Li Shimin when he sees that Li Shimin has made up his mind.


    Li Shimin nodded. Both Confucian and Mohist journals have branches all over the Tang Dynasty. One focuses on the upper class and the other on the lower class. The two journals attack the yin-yang school simultaneously, which is equal to the combination of Confucianism and Mohism. Are you afraid that they can''t beat the yin-yang school?


    Merton continued: "second, although the yin-yang family is dormant, we have no way to directly attack the yin-yang family."


    Li Shimin was surprised and said, "the Mohist school has a way to find the hiding place of the yin-yang family."


    Merton shook his head and said, "although the children of the yin-yang family are latent, their theories have spread all over the world. The yin-yang family is a disaster to the world, and the yin-yang theory is a priceless treasure. As seen by Wei officials, it''s better to let a hundred families dismember the yin-yang theory to break the Qi luck of the yin-yang family."


    "Dismember the yin-yang theory and destroy the Qi Yun of the yin-yang family. Didn''t the Mohist say they didn''t believe in Qi Yun?" the people stared at Merton and said in great doubt.


    Merton spread his hands: "Mohism doesn''t believe it, but the yin-yang family believes it! If a hundred schools dismember the yin-yang theory, in the view of the yin-yang family, it will shake the foundation of the yin-yang family. The so-called yin-yang family''s luck will disappear immediately, which will have a stronger impact on the yin-yang family. Moreover, once the yin-yang family''s theory is integrated by other hundred schools, the yin-yang family will become weaker and weaker, I''m afraid it will never happen again Can''t harm the world. "


    "Dismember the yin-yang family? But that is, after all, a hundred schools of thought in ancient times!" the officials could not accept it.


    Merton didn''t seem to see the people''s eyes and said ruthlessly: "the yin-yang family is indeed a hundred schools of ancient scholars, but it''s a pity that the yin-yang family has gone the wrong way. The theories of the hundred schools have the same goal. The yin-yang diagram is shared by Taoism and the yin-yang family, and the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram was created by Weichen. Now it''s reasonable for Weichen to transfer the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram to Taoism."


    Li Chunfeng immediately got up and said, "thank you for your gift."


    Merton publicly presented the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram to Taoism, which saved people''s mouth in the future.


    "Now that Taoism has the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram, it just takes the opportunity to merge the yin-yang theory, and the five elements theory comes from the same source as the medical theory of doctors. According to historical records, the origin of doctors can be much earlier than the yin-yang family, and the attribution of the five elements theory to doctors is justified." Merton explained the five elements theory again.


    "Doctor!" everyone nodded silently. The doctor''s medical book theory is the theory of Yin-Yang and five elements. Starting from the Yellow Emperor''s Internal Classic, the doctor is probably the orthodox theory of the five elements.


    "As for the Fengtian carrier created by the former yin-yang son on his deathbed, Weichen thought that it was no more suitable for Fengtian carrier than the royal family." Merton arched his hand to Li Shimin.


    "Heaven bless you!"


    As soon as Li Shimin''s eyes lit up, he was quite satisfied with this statement. He was born in heaven, which provided a perfect explanation for his killing of his brother''s prisoner''s father. The throne should have been his.


    "What about the Mohist school? I didn''t expect to take a share of the yin-yang family." Yu Zhining sneered. He didn''t believe that if the Mohist family dismembered the yin-yang family, it would have no selfishness.


    Merton did not hide the truth: "it is true that the contradiction created by Mo Mou is to absorb the essence of the theory of balance between yin and Yang, and to fuse the Mohist Mohism to win the previous Yin and Yang.


    Yu Zhining''s heart was suddenly sour. All the other hundred schools got benefits, but Confucianism got nothing.


    "OK! In this way, it''s not a way." Li Shimin nodded secretly and publicly refuted the rumor of prophecies in troubled times, which can not only stop the people all over the world from blindly following and avoid the disaster of prophecies, but dismember the yin-yang theory can directly shake the Qi and fortune of the Yin-Yang family, which is killing people.


    "The yin-yang family chose the wrong opponent and even provoked Merton. These two times are enough for the yin-yang family." all the ministers sighed one after another.


    No one thought that they were helpless to deal with the prophecy of the yin-yang family in troubled times. Now they can easily deal with it. They are worthy of being the Mo family. Now that they have defeated the former yin-yang son once, they can still sling the second yin-yang son.


    "You drink!" Li Shimin was in a good mood and raised his glass again.


    Soon, in the Tai Chi hall, laughter was restored again. Li Shimin was very good at drinking and pulled his lower body. He drank and had fun with his ministers. When the wine was drunk, he pulled his lower body and agreed with his ministers that if anyone lost, he should say his milk name.


    Unfortunately, Li Junxian, the commander of Baiqi, won the first move. Li Junxian shyly said his nickname.


    "Five women!"


    Li Shimin was stunned, then laughed and said, "is there a strong woman like you in the world?"


    The ministers immediately burst into laughter, but the interested people flashed their eyes and couldn''t help flashing over the female Lord Chang who had just talked about it.


    Suddenly, Merton was surprised. He couldn''t help thinking of the tragic outcome of Li Junxian in later generations. His mind suddenly turned and came to Li Junxian with an idea.


    "Why is mohou so?" Li Junxian didn''t understand.


    People also looked at Merton suspiciously and didn''t understand what Merton meant.


    Merton said with a smile, "General Li''s nickname is the fifth lady. He is the Duke of Wulian County. His official position is general zuowuwei. He guards the Xuanwu Gate. They all have the word" Wu ", but they perfectly fit the prophecy of troubled times."


    Everyone was stunned to recall the prophecies of the troubled times. No one thought they were so consistent. They were just refuting the prophecies of the troubled times, but now a perfect candidate appeared in front of them.


    "I..." Li Junxian suddenly felt like being struck by lightning. He didn''t expect that he would become the suspect of prophecy in troubled times because of his nickname, and he couldn''t argue.


    "Didn''t Mo Hou say he didn''t believe in the prophecy of troubled times?" Wei Zheng said to relieve Li Junxian.


    Because of his face, Li Shimin also refuted, "don''t talk nonsense. Li Aiqing is loyal to me. Is he a rebel?"


    Merton explained: "Wei Chen naturally knows that General Li is a loyal person, but this is the terrible part of prophecy. It can be far fetched to attach to similar people, but it makes people unable to argue."


    Li Junxian was relieved. However, before he was happy for too long, he heard Merton''s words turn.


    "Since the prophecies are far fetched, why don''t we take the initiative to use a loyal person to create the illusion of the female Lord Wu Wang and use it to lead to the yin-yang family."


    "Yin Yang family?"


    Li Shimin''s eyes lit up and suddenly stared at Li Junxian. Now there is no better candidate than Li Junxian.


    "Li Aiqing, are you willing to take this task?" Li Shimin said solemnly.


    Li Junxian knelt down in the tunnel without hesitation: "I''d like to work hard for your majesty."


    "The yin-yang theory prevails in Huazhou, so there must be yin-yang families hiding here." Li Chunfeng mended his Dao. Taoism has now won the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram, so naturally it doesn''t want the yin-yang families to grow.


    "OK! In a few days, you will be the governor of Huazhou and be responsible for leading out the hidden yin-yang family." Li Shimin decided.


    "The minister leads the decree." Li Junxian said solemnly.


    "And today''s affairs are classified as confidential and can''t be disclosed," Li Shimin warned the ministers.


    "Yes!" all the ministers responded.


    Merton was relieved. The biggest victim of the prophecy of troubled times in history was Li Junxian. He found a way to live for Li Junxian today, which can be regarded as making up for the regret of history.

 Chapter 1301

    The moon is bright and the stars are rare. The Royal Palace Banquet is full of fun. However, although everyone is drunk, everyone is sober. No one thought that yin and Yang, one of the hundreds of families, will be dismembered and castrated tonight.


    Maybe the yin-yang theory will continue to develop, but these have little to do with the yin-yang family, because before long, the inheritance of the yin-yang family will be cut off and disappear in the long river of history.


    A hundred schools of thought contend. Naturally, there are ups and downs. No one thought that the yin-yang family was the first out.


    The next day,


    The new issue of Ink magazine published the prophecy of troubled times, denounced the ten sins of yin and Yang family, and there was an uproar in Chang''an city.


    "The Mohist family is so bold. This time it is not a prosperous prophecy, but a rebellious prophecy in troubled times!" everyone talked about it one after another. They were all amazed at Merton''s courage and responded to the prophecy again.


    However, the Confucian journal followed up and publicly denounced the prophecy of troubled times.


    The people of Chang''an city realized that it was the Mohist School and the yin-yang school who jointly dealt with the yin-yang family.


    However, this is not over yet. Then the Taoist school claimed that the Mohist school would transfer the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram to the Taoist school, and claimed that the Taoist school is the authentic of the eight trigrams of yin and Yang. It took the Tai Chi yin-yang diagram as the symbol of the Taoist school, and incorporated the book of changes into the Taoist school''s Taoist classics.


    At the same time, doctors claim that the theory of five elements originated from the Yellow Emperor''s Internal Classic, which is the theoretical foundation of doctors.


    "Confucian, Mohist and Taoist doctors! The yin-yang family has provoked public anger!"


    Chang''an people can''t help muttering that recently, the yin-yang family has repeatedly issued two prophecies, like the sun at its zenith, but it has changed from victory to decline overnight, and even almost perished.


    "What''s more, the yin-yang family thinks it is Fengtian carrier. However, looking at the world, who dares to call Fengtian carrier except your majesty."


    "The art of yin and Yang of the Yin and Yang school has been defeated by the art of contradiction of the Mohist school. This time, a hundred schools of thought contend, and the Yin and Yang school has been out."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People of insight in Chang''an talked about it one after another, but people with insight can see that yin-yang family is at a dead end.


    "Blame the Yin and Yang family for provoking people who shouldn''t be provoked." a scholar said coldly.


    The former yin-yang Zi ignored his identity and dealt with the disciples of the Mohist school as a hundred schools of thought, which eventually angered the Mohist school. The new yin-yang Zi even died and issued prophecies about the troubled times, which angered the emperor. In addition, the theories of the yin-yang school were too complex, and there were too many overlaps with other hundred schools, so he was finally hit by this disaster.


    "The Yin and Yang family are going to have trouble protecting themselves. I''m afraid the so-called prophecy of troubled times can only be a joke." many people shook their heads. Originally, they had a deep taboo on the prophecy of troubled times of the Yin and Yang family. Now, the prophecy of troubled times has been publicly refuted by Confucianism and ink journals. The Yin and Yang family is in a precarious state. The fear and mystery of the prophecy of troubled times have greatly decreased, and they have regarded it as a joke.


    Various forces have received the response of the people. They can''t help shouting Merton''s brilliant means. They even turn their hands over the clouds and cover their hands with rain. They have dissolved the prophecy of troubled times in a very short time. Now the so-called prophecy of troubled times has directly become a joke of the Tang Dynasty.


    In the Imperial Palace, the little mage who successfully mixed into the Imperial Palace looked at the ink and Confucian journals in his hand, and suddenly felt like lightning.


    He didn''t expect that his prophecy in troubled times would bring such a disaster to the yin-yang family. Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, doctors and the royal family suddenly took a drastic pay for the yin-yang family, so that the inheritance of the yin-yang family was directly cut off.


    In other words, he was the last yin-yang son. Thinking of this, the little mage couldn''t help crying.


    "Now it''s too late to regret. If you go to the root, you can''t be reborn. You and I are destined to be the last one." an old eunuch looked at the little mage and thought he regretted being a eunuch in the palace, but shook his head.


    However, this sentence is particularly ironic in the little mage''s ears. He castrated the lifeline and entered the palace, while Mohist Zi directly castrated the yin-yang family. It''s nothing for a yin-yang family to lose their life. The yin-yang family can still survive. However, the yin-yang family without their own theory is like a man who lost his lifeline and became a eunuch, destined to be extinct.


    "Mo family, do you think this is over? As long as the yin-yang family can support the female Lord Wu to ascend, the yin-yang family has no chance to turn over." the little mage''s heart is filled with hatred. He gambles the future of the yin-yang family on the illusory female Lord Wu.


    Now his most important task is to find the female Lord Wu Wang in the Imperial Palace and help him with the residual strength of Yin-Yang family. His first suspect is Li Junxian, the commander of Baiqi who guards the Xuanwu Gate. He once used taibaixing to test him.


    However, before he took action, he heard a thunderbolt news. Li Junxian was suspected by the emperor and denounced as an assassin of Huazhou.


    The little mage was stunned. He didn''t expect that he had just taken action. Li Shimin had noticed and transferred the suspected female leader King Wu from the palace.


    "The female Lord Wu is the fate of heaven. One Lord is destroyed and the other Lord is born. Since Li Junxian has been transferred from the palace, there will be another female Lord Wu in the palace." the little mage said confidently.


    After walking in the palace, the little mage had already had an insight into the entanglement of forces in the palace. He thought: "the five princes, king Qi, Li you, are ambitious. You can have a try if you agree with the prophecy of troubled times."


    King Wu is homophonic to the five kings, plus King Li you of Qi. His mother is a Yin imperial concubine. She has a background in the previous dynasty, but she is the son of a concubine. She has no chance to the throne. I''m afraid she is unwilling to know.


    "There is also the king of Jin, who succumbs to the crown prince and is entangled with the female leader Wu Meiniang. If he has the opportunity to ascend the throne and Qiang accept Wu Meiniang into the palace in the future, the female leader of prophecy in prosperous times and prophecy in troubled times may not be one."


    "Except for the princes, the empresses in the palace have never had a chance. Since ancient times, the Empresses of all dynasties have the ability to control the imperial power. The empress''s longevity was exhausted. Although she was forcibly renewed by the green dragon genuine medicine of the Mohist school, I''m afraid she won''t last long. At that time, the next empress will probably be the best candidate for the female leader King Wu." the little mage was filled with thoughts, Finally, the goal is set on Zheng Chonghua, who is in the prime of life and supported by the five surnamed Qiwang Zheng family, because she is the next queen personally selected by Empress Chang sun for Li Shimin.


    Once the eldest grandson empress dies, Zheng Chonghua becomes the new queen. In addition, Li Shimin will never give birth to a prince again. How can Zheng Chonghua not support his son to ascend the throne at that time.


    "In that case, why don''t you go in parallel? Li Junxian doesn''t want to let go. It''s like the method of raising poisonous insects in the southern barbarians. The last one who survived must be the female Lord of martial arts." the little mage''s mind suddenly changed. He found that he had no other thoughts after removing the lifeline. He was very thoughtful and could easily catch these conspiracies.


    "Cathode Yang is born. Now the yin-yang family is in the darkest and lowest period. However, the yin-yang family will not turn the tide and create brilliance again."


    The little mage firmly believes that as long as the yin-yang family can change the world and realize the prophecy of women in troubled times, everything will be rewritten in the future.


    Of course, if it fails, the yin-yang family will completely sink. Therefore, this time, the yin-yang family has no way out but to fight hard.

 Chapter 1302

    In the harem, the atmosphere was oppressive.


    Since the prophecy of troubled times came into the world, the whole harem has been more taboo. According to the history books, those who are most likely to control the imperial power come from the imperial palace.


    "Mi Yue, Empress Dowager Zhao, empress Lu, Empress Dowager Dou......"


    The whole Imperial Palace was in danger for fear of being attached to the prophecies of troubled times. The public rumor refuted by Mo magazine and Confucian magazine made the people in the Imperial Palace feel a heavy sigh of relief.


    Since Confucianism and ink journals publicly declared that the prophecy of troubled times was false, it meant that the people in the harem were no longer involved, let alone Li Junxian, who was suspected to be the female Lord Wu, was driven out of the palace. For a moment, the atmosphere in the harem was relaxed.


    "Since the prophecy of troubled times is the conspiracy of the Yin and Yang family, why should your majesty doubt General Li? Isn''t it true?" empress Chang sun advised in the legislative palace.


    Although all the women in power in the past dynasties came from the harem and were the most empresses, empress Chang sun did not shy away from it. First, she had a deep relationship with Li Shimin, and second, her body was getting worse and worse. I''m afraid she couldn''t last until that time.


    "I naturally know that Li Junxian is loyal. After Merton''s reminder, I realized that Li Junxian is very consistent with the prophecy of troubled times, so I let him go to Huazhou to lead out the remaining yin-yang families and catch them all." Li Shimin explained that he absolutely believes in the empress changsun and didn''t hide it.


    Empress Chang sun suddenly realized that this was the best outcome. On the one hand, it could attack the yin-yang family, on the other hand, it indirectly saved Li Junxian, because he knew his husband''s mind best. If he really didn''t mind the prophecy of troubled times, I''m afraid he wouldn''t delegate Li Junxian.


    "The atmosphere in the harem has been tense recently. Your majesty had better appease!" Li Shimin and the empress changsun were gentle, and they were advised by the empress changsun.


    Empress Chang sun knows the general very well. Naturally, she knows that even the public refutation of rumors by ink and Confucian journals is not as good as Li Shimin''s personal appeasement. Only Li Shimin personally says that the prophecy of troubled times is a rumor, can the harem restore its peace in the past. Otherwise, under all kinds of suspicion and fabrication, I''m afraid it will eventually lead to great disaster.


    Li Shimin got up and left the Lizheng hall. He comforted all the concubines and gave them great rewards. Even when Yin imperial concubine asked for a fief for her king Li you of Qi, Li Shimin waved his hand and won the position of governor of Qi State for Li you to control the military and political power of Qi state.


    Li Shimin comforted the concubines continuously. When he came to Zheng Chonghua''s palace, night had fallen, so he took the opportunity to stay at Zheng Chonghua''s place.


    "Brother Liu''s speech is too unreasonable. Who says that women are not as good as men............."


    A well-known Mulan was selected to sing and play. Zheng Chonghua gently fell into Li Shimin''s arms and said, "Your Majesty, how are you singing this Mulan song?"


    "Yes, Princess Ai''s singing skills have improved again, which is comparable to Gongsun people." Li Shimin praised the Mo family. Gongsun people are Gongsun Yue''s honorific name. Since the birth of Mulan opera, Gongsun Yue''s reputation has become famous in Chang''an city overnight.


    "I have nothing to do recently. I''m bored. I''m just studying singing. Your majesty praises me wrongly. I know my minister and concubine are far from Miss Gongsun''s singing. How can I deserve your Majesty''s praise." Zheng Chonghua looks coquettish and angry. She not only acts coquettish in front of Li Shimin, but also knows how to advance and retreat. She deeply grasps Li Shimin''s mind. You should know that with Li Shimin''s vision and insight, Some brainless beauties will not enter their emperor''s heart.


    Li Shimin said with a spoiled face: "everywhere I go, all imperial concubines are terrified by the prophecy of troubled times. It''s the most relaxed and carefree to go to imperial concubine Zheng. Isn''t imperial concubine Zheng worried about being implicated by the prophecy of troubled times?"


    Zheng Chonghua smiled and said, "I''m not afraid. If I want to do it, I''ll be Hua Mulan who can help your majesty. I''m not willing to be the female Lord Wu. I''m lucky to get your Majesty''s favor. I don''t ask for anything else in my life."


    "Oh! How are you going to help me, Mulan of the harem?" Li Shimin joked.


    Zheng Chonghua said solemnly: "let my concubines think about it. The way to solve the prophecy of troubled times proposed by Marquis Mo is to dismember the theory of Yin-Yang family to destroy the Qi luck of Yin-Yang family. The most suitable for the royal family is Fengtian."


    "Fengtianyun!" Li Shimin nodded slowly. Fengtianyun is a theory of yin and Yang school that satisfied him. It is tailor-made for him.


    Zheng Chonghua then said, "however, fengtiankai is not a stroke in the history books, but to remember that his majesty is the emperor of fengtiankai all the time."


    "Always remember? What should I do?" Li Shimin''s eyes lit up.


    "Not only let the subjects all over the world remember, but also show solemnity. That''s the imperial edict. In the future, when your majesty wrote the imperial edict, he wrote at the beginning:" the emperor is carried by heaven, and the imperial edict says...... in this way, won''t you let the subjects all over the world know that your majesty is carried by heaven? "Zheng Chonghua said in a flash of light.


    "Emperor of heaven, imperial edict!" Li Shimin''s heart pounded. This imperial edict was tailor-made for him, which was both solemn and well-known.


    Zheng Chonghua said proudly, "well, my concubine, this harem Mulan is not in vain!"


    "Yes, it''s just what I want." Li Shimin, long yandayue,


    When I stayed in Chonghua palace every night, I doted on Zheng Chonghua until dawn the next day.


    Li Shimin just walked out of the Chonghua palace. Pound on the side bowed forward and asked, "tell your majesty whether to stay or not."


    In the Imperial Palace, staying and not staying means whether the Dragon seed in the imperial concubine stays or not after the emperor sleeps over. If it stays, it means that the imperial concubine can conceive and give birth to the imperial son. If it doesn''t stay, it means that the mammy in the palace needs to stimulate the imperial concubine''s acupoints to force the Dragon seed, and then drink a bowl of Xizi decoction.


    Li Shimin stopped and paused, then said indifferently, "don''t stay!"


    "Yes!" pound bowed his head and ordered the maid of honor to go down and arrange.


    In Chonghua palace, Zheng Chonghua lay lazily on the soft couch. Li Shimin''s overnight stay in the palace gave her great vanity. She couldn''t help touching her stomach. If she could take the opportunity to conceive dragon seed, she would certainly be able to rely on her mother and son to further her position in the palace.


    "Your proposal is good. There is a reward in the palace." Zheng Chonghua said to a small eunuch under the stage with satisfaction. The reason why she was able to put forward the idea of accepting the emperor''s edict was the idea of the eunuch in front of her. However, she didn''t know that the person in front of her was the new yin-yang son.


    "Thank you for your gift," said the little mage with a surprised look on his face.


    Zheng Chonghua nodded with satisfaction and said, "from now on, you will stay in Chonghua palace, and this palace will reuse you."


    In Zheng Chonghua''s opinion, the little eunuch has some skills and can often give her advice and help her compete for favor.


    "Slave, thank you for your grace!" the little mage accepted without hesitation. After all, he can become a popular man around Zheng Chonghua. He can contact more suspected female Lord Wu Wang in the palace, so as to continue to promote the prophecy of troubled times.


    Zheng Chonghua waved his hand and motioned the little mage to step down. Suddenly, a group of nannies gong''e came in. The leading gong''e bowed and said, "tell empress Chong Hua, and the emperor said: don''t stay."


    "Don''t stay!" Zheng Chong Huadun was stiff here. She contributed such a good strategy to Li Shimin and was the most favored concubine in the harem. She thought she had a stronger relationship with Li Shimin, but the result was that she didn''t stay, which meant that she couldn''t conceive children at all. A concubine without children was doomed to be miserable in the palace, The splendor and wealth of the harem is only a dream in the end.


    As the gate of the Chonghua hall slammed shut, Zheng Chonghua screamed in pain. After a long time, a group of gong''e bowed back.


    The little mage pushed the door into the Chonghua hall and saw Zheng Chonghua lying on the soft couch with disheveled hair. Although he was gorgeous in palace clothes, he still had no energy and spirit before.


    "Why does your majesty treat my concubine like this? My concubine just wants a child." Zheng Chonghua said with both eyes.


    The little mage sighed and said, "hasn''t your mother found that since the birth of King Cao in the eighth year of Zhenguan, the imperial concubines in the palace have no more children."


    Zheng Chonghua recovered a little energy and asked, "why?"


    At the beginning, Emperor Li Yuan was old and gave birth to more than a dozen children. However, Li Shimin is now in the heyday of spring and autumn, and all imperial concubines in the palace are of suitable gestational age. How can it be that no new prince or princess has been born in the palace for several years.


    The little mage looked around and whispered, "Your Majesty already has fourteen sons. There is no need to add a prince."


    "There''s no need to add a prince!" the little mage''s words sounded like a thunder in Zheng Chonghua''s ear. Li Shimin already has 14 princes. She doesn''t have to worry about the problem of heirs at all, that is to say, even if Zheng Chonghua is loved again, she won''t give birth to a son and a half.


    Is she destined to die alone in this deep palace? Zheng Chonghua shudders when he thinks about it. Now she is in a good nutmeg age, but she sees her tragic ending in the future.


    "It''s valuable for you, a little eunuch, to have such a vision. How can the palace give birth to a prince?" Zheng Chonghua frowned and asked.


    The little mage smiled strangely and said, "only the emperor can make the empress give birth to the prince. Although the empress is favored, her status is not high. Now the body of empress Chang sun is getting worse day by day. If the empress can seize the opportunity and ascend to the post of empress Huang after the death of empress Chang sun, the emperor can make an exception."


    Now he is a popular man around Zheng Chonghua. If Zheng Chonghua can ascend the throne of queen, he will certainly rise in the future, and he will not be able to reach Pound''s position. At that time, his chances of success in promoting the prophecy of troubled times will greatly increase.


    "Empress''s throne." Zheng Chonghua''s eyes brightened. Empress Chang sun''s body became weaker and weaker. She was empress Chang sun''s backhand. If she could take the opportunity to operate, she would have no chance to ascend the Queen''s throne.

 Chapter 1303

    Empress Chang sun is ill!


    With the weather getting colder day by day, winter finally came. When Mount Tai was closed to Zen, empress Chang sun accompanied Li Shimin in the cold wind for a night. She was not well after the cold, and now she can''t hold it.


    "My mother is weak and can''t stand the wind and cold. My minister and concubine specially brought the latest down jacket from outside the palace. It can be said that it''s warm and light, and it''s most suitable for my mother." Zheng Chonghua usually presents the latest down jacket.


    The Yin imperial concubine on the side smiled coldly when she saw that Zheng Chonghua, who was being favored, presented the down jacket. Everyone knew that the down jacket was created by Wu Meiniang. Wu Meiniang publicly refuted the face of empress Chang sun in the legislative hall. I''m afraid Zheng Chonghua''s move just touched the bad luck of empress Chang sun.


    But unexpectedly, empress Chang sun smiled and said softly, "Chong Hua has a heart."


    Yin imperial concubine frowned. She didn''t expect that empress Chang sun should be so generous. Even if she didn''t care about Wu Meiniang''s previous offense, she didn''t care about the identity of Wu Meiniang''s female leader Chang.


    Zheng Chonghua couldn''t help feeling proud when she saw the expression of Yin imperial concubine. This was the little mage''s suggestion to her. The so-called one moment after another. Now the eldest grandson empress is weak and afraid of the wind and cold. The light and warm down jacket is the best thing. Compared with a small offence, the empress''s Phoenix body is naturally more important.


    Moreover, the government has refuted the rumor that the so-called prophecy is just a trick of the yin-yang family. As the head of the harem, the empress can no longer care about the identity of Wu Meiniang''s female leader Chang.


    Yin imperial concubine also thought of the key, and could not help but secretly regret that such a good opportunity was robbed by Zheng Chonghua, a fox spirit.


    "My mother hasn''t recovered yet, and Princess Changle can''t serve her personally outside the palace. It''s better to let my concubine serve her personally." Zheng Chonghua said respectfully.


    "This fox child!" the Yin imperial concubine couldn''t help being angry. She didn''t expect that Zheng Chonghua would pull down her face to serve the sick empress changsun and take the opportunity to compete for favor. However, Zheng Chonghua and Princess Changle are quite different in age, which is not against the law. If she was allowed to serve the empress changsun, she couldn''t pull this face anyway.


    "You are the Chong Hua granted by your majesty personally. It''s unreasonable to serve the palace." empress Chang sun shook her head and refused, but looking at Zheng Chong Hua, who is similar to her daughter, she was more and more satisfied.


    Zheng Chonghua is just a show of loyalty. He is not willing to serve a patient personally. At that time, he pushed the boat along the river and said, "I have no children. I have nothing to do alone. It''s better to often come to accompany the queen."


    "Sister Chong Hua is still carefree. My palace is heartbroken for you''er. Fortunately, your majesty agreed to let you''er go to Qizhou to take office. She only has a few days of leisure." the Yin imperial concubine said with a stab in her tone. Although Zheng Chong Hua is happy now, she is only good-looking because of her young skin. She still wants her mother to rely on her son in the palace. When she gets old in the future, she can go to her son''s palace to provide for the elderly, Zheng Chonghua, like the emperor''s concubine, will become a nun in the temple. It is not certain that he will be buried with Li Shimin if the outcome is worse.


    Zheng Chonghua''s face darkened when he was said to be seriously ill.


    Empress Chang sun naturally heard that Li Shimin would not stay. She sighed and said, "don''t blame the emperor, but there are too many minor princes in the palace now. If you don''t control the number of princes, I''m afraid it''s not enough to divide the whole Tang Dynasty."


    Empress Chang Sun told the truth. At this time, the Tang Dynasty was similar to the Western Han Dynasty, and the county system and enfeoffment system coexisted,


    Today, in addition to Li Shimin''s sons, there are many sons left by the supreme Emperor Li Yuan. Since Li Yuan abdicated, he has simply opened the stallion model, giving birth to 18 brothers for Li Shimin. Plus Li Shimin''s 14 sons, there will be nearly 30 princes and uncles in the Tang Dynasty who need to be expropriated. What a huge number, I''m afraid a bad one will repeat the rebellion of the seven kings of the Western Han Dynasty.


    Li Shimin can''t control his father and can only let himself have family planning.


    Zheng Chonghua forced a smile and said, "my concubine understands your Majesty''s difficulties. Naturally, I won''t blame your majesty."


    Empress changsun nodded with satisfaction. The reason why she selected Zheng Chonghua into the palace and trained him to become the successor of the queen is that Zheng Chonghua can''t have children. Otherwise, if she dies, if Princess yin or princess Yang becomes the queen, if Li Chengqian''s crown prince is not guaranteed, she will die in peace.


    "Tell the empress that his Royal Highness the prince and the king of Jin have invited doctor Mo Wu." a gong-e hurried to report.


    As soon as the voice fell, Prince Li Chengqian and King Li Zhi came together, followed by the same young Mo Wu. Although Mo Wu was young, now Sun Simiao has retired. Mo Wu is already the leader of doctors in Chang''an City, leading the way in surgery.


    "The prince and the king of Jin!" Zheng Chonghua hurriedly got up and avoided. Before leaving, he couldn''t help looking back at them. If there was no accident, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty would be born from them, because they were both the legitimate sons of the empress changsun and would be her future dependence.


    However, their attention was not on Zheng Chonghua at all, but directly rushed to the empress changsun and asked for warmth.


    Zheng Chonghua gritted her teeth and turned away. In the future, as long as she often served the empress Chang sun, she did not have the opportunity to contact them, which could be regarded as paving the way for her future.


    "Empress Chang sun''s weak body is another Qi disease caused by the long-term treatment of wind and cold. Weichen has given the empress Qinglong real medicine injection. The empress should rest to avoid the further deterioration of Qi disease." Mo Wu frowned and told the truth.


    "Mr. Mo Wu is known as the king of hell, but he is sure to cure his mother." Li Zhi, king of Jin, said anxiously.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "what Weichen is good at is surgery, and the Qi disease of empress changsun is not curable by surgery, and the Qi disease is a genetic disease. At present, there is no radical cure."


    "Even doctors can''t help it?" Li Chengqian frowned.


    Mo Wu answered truthfully, "at present, the best rule is to use Qinglong real medicine to cure wind cold, and Qi diseases need the empress''s slow recuperation."


    Li Chengqian wanted to say more, but the empress changsun weakly stopped and said, "even doctor sun is helpless about the condition of the palace. Don''t embarrass doctor Mo Wu. Step back first. If the palace has something to ask doctor Mo Wu."


    "Yes! Empress mother!" Li Zhi and Li Chengqian looked at each other and had to step down first.


    After they left, empress Chang Sun said to Mo Wu, "I''ve heard that doctors have medical training and should not hide their condition from patients. Dr. Mo Wu, now I want to know how long our condition can last."


    Mo Wu frowned and finally replied truthfully: "the short is half a year and the long is a year."


    "One year?" the eldest sun empress said frankly, "the palace couldn''t last five years ago. Fortunately, with the real green dragon medicine you made, it''s only five more years. It''s reasonable that the Palace should be satisfied. However, the palace can''t die now. The palace now orders you to do your best to prolong the life of the palace. The palace is willing to bear any more pain."


    Mo Wu followed empress Chang sun''s eyes and stopped at Li Chengqian and Li Zhi. He couldn''t help but understand that empress Chang sun''s move was for the crown prince. As long as she was alive, Li Chengqian''s crown prince would be as stable as Mount Tai. Even if she died in the future and Li Zhi had grown up, the crown prince would not be left at home.


    "Wei Chen understands." Mo Wu said with sincere admiration. This great mother is even supporting a sky for her children on her deathbed. This is the real woman who can hold up half the sky.

 Chapter 1304

    Only a few people knew about empress Chang sun''s illness. However, when empress Chang sun put on her down jacket, it directly caused a great change in the upper costumes of the Tang Dynasty.


    For a long time, the down jacket created by Wu Meiniang has only spread among the rich people. If they encounter scholarly families, they will be fiercely resisted. However, after the eldest Sun Queen put on the down jacket, she directly dealt a fatal blow to the Confucian clothes. Originally, the dignitaries and ladies were secretly envious of the down jacket, but they could only be turned away due to etiquette. How much hatred they once suppressed, Now there will be many retaliatory consumption. For a while, down jackets are selling wildly in Chang''an City, and dignitaries and ladies are proud to wear down jackets.


    To this end, Wu Meiniang took advantage of the trend to launch the men''s down jacket, which was also a great success. So far, the down jacket has become a general trend, and the Confucian clothes have been losing ground. Only those who are loyal to Confucianism still adhere to the lenient and inconvenient Confucian clothes.


    Confucianism was defeated and Confucianists and Mohists fought for thousands of years. However, Mohism has always been at a disadvantage and even remained silent for thousands of years. Now Mohism is rising strongly. Mohism is better than Confucianism in a certain field for the first time.


    For a moment, there was an uproar in Chang''an city. At the moment, the relationship between Confucianism and Mohism immediately fell to the freezing point and began to compete in Chang''an City, which has the potential to compete with water and fire.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When Kong huisuo walked on the street of Chang''an City, he felt that everything was so strange. He just stayed in Gaochang for a year. After he came back, Chang''an City even didn''t know them.


    The streets are still crowded with people, and people are still enthusiastic Chang''an people. However, most people no longer wear Confucian clothes, most of the middle and lower class people wear ink clothes, and women wear light down clothes. Few people wear Confucian clothes all over the streets.


    "Why is Confucian clothing so!"


    Back at the Confucius Mansion, Kong huisuo and Kong Yingda sat opposite each other, frowned and asked.


    Kong Yingda sighed that if Confucianism was defeated by Mohists, he might fight back, even if he didn''t hesitate to use the power of Confucianism to deal with him.


    However, this time, he was defeated by Wu Meiniang, an apprentice of Mohism. The Confucian clothes were defeated by a weak woman. Even if he fought back, he would be laughed at by the world. Moreover, he didn''t have a good way. After all, the advantage of down jacket is too obvious.


    "This time, Confucianism was defeated by the overnight calculations of Mohist and yin-yang school. According to the accusation of Yin-Yang son on his deathbed, Mohist son used yin-yang school to calculate Confucianism with the help of Wu Meiniang. Kong Yingda looked embarrassed and encouraged him to find an excuse for failure for Confucianism.


    "Good luck!" Kong huisuo couldn''t help laughing. As a young generation, he didn''t believe in the way of good luck. However, he saw Wu Meiniang with his own eyes. Naturally, he knew her extraordinary. Coupled with Merton''s deliberate arrangement, he created hardships for her, which made her break her cocoon into a butterfly and achieve the brilliance of down jacket.


    Although he knew the merits of down jacket, as a child of the Confucius family, he couldn''t help feeling sad when he saw that Confucian jacket was abandoned by the world.


    "Tell me, young master! Mozi and childe Qin heard that the young master returned to Chang''an City and sent an invitation to invite the young master to a banquet." suddenly, a servant of Confucius whispered a report.


    "Morton and Qin Huaiyu invited me to dinner!" Kong huisuo thought. After he came back, he saw the great change of Confucian clothes in Chang''an City, so he had a grudge against Morton. He didn''t contact several people, but he didn''t expect Morton to send someone to invite him.


    "The Mohist school has always claimed to make the Mohist School rise peacefully. I''m afraid you have to repeat your old skills and prepare to stabilize Confucianism first," Kong Yingda sneered.


    Kong huisuo shook his head and said, "second uncle thought more. Merton is not like that. Over the years, Confucianism has been able to make progress, and brother Mo has helped a lot."


    Both the library of the Confucius family and his homonymy came from Merton. From this point, he was grateful to Merton.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "the intention of Mozi''s help is well known. Mozi has a story of boiling frogs in warm water. In my opinion, Confucianism is the frog in this pot now. When he finds out, I''m afraid he has been invited into the urn."


    Today, Mohism is fully revived. Although it is known as the peaceful rise, it is not without thunderbolt means. Its means of dismembering yin-yang school makes people shudder. How can such Mohism not shake Kong Yingda? So far, Kong Yingda had to pay attention to the rise of Mohism.


    However, Kong Yingda is a moderate figure in Confucianism and has not done anything special.


    "In that case, my nephew refused Merton''s invitation!" Kong huisuo frowned. The relationship between Confucianism and Mohism was bad, and his former brotherhood with Merton was insignificant.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "no, the Mohist family has taken the initiative to invite you to peace talks. If you don''t go, you will lose Confucian etiquette. It''s better to meet and test the Mohist family''s bottom by the way."


    Kong Yingda agreed with Kong huisuo to meet with Mojia Zi. In fact, there is another most important reason, that is, if Mojia Zi wants peace talks, he will certainly show sincerity. You know, Mojia Zi has always been extraordinary. If Confucianism refuses, I''m afraid it will be a lifelong regret.


    Kong huisuo nodded, got up and went back to the house, changed his favorite Confucian clothes, walked out of the Confucius house and saw Chang''an people in ink clothes all over the street. The Confucian clothes he was proud of had an alternative feeling, which made Kong huisuo very unnatural.


    To endure his discomfort, Kong huisuo drove to the yuzhuangyuan building. As soon as he got off the bus, Qin Huaiyu warmly welcomed him.


    "Brother Kong came back from Gaochang thousands of miles away, but the brothers specially picked up the wind and washed the dust for you." Qin huaiyulang, wearing a fashionable men''s down jacket, said, with down jacket on one side and long Confucian clothes on the other. They are spanning two times.


    "Let brother Qin spend money." Kong huisuo smiled knowingly. There was a rift between him and Merton, but he and Qin Huaiyu were still brothers.


    They smiled at each other and walked into the restaurant box. This box was where they used to gather. Sure enough, Merton, Chumo and Yuchi Baolin were also present.


    "Brother Cheng, brother Yuchi!" Kong huisuo said hello one by one, and finally focused on Merton,


    "Brother Kong, you''re all right!" Merton laughed and got up.


    "Thanks to brother Mo''s blessing, I conquered Gaochang and gave my little brother a place to show his gratitude." Kong huisuo replied.


    "Now that everyone has arrived, don''t stand. I''ll have a good gathering today." Qin Huaiyu quickly said, breaking the deadlock.


    "That''s right! Brother Mo quickly asks people to serve wine and food. Cheng can''t wait to drink." Chumo said rudely.


    Merton smiled bitterly and clapped his hand. A group of Mohist children began to serve delicious food and grape wine.

 Chapter 1305

    Qin Huaiyu poured bright red wine for the crowd. Lang said, "I know brother Kong is not short of grape wine in Gaochang. However, brother Mo brews wine in Dengzhou and other places is not inferior to Western wine. Brother Kong should have a good taste."


    Kong huisuo waved his hand and said, "now there is no good grape wine in Gaochang. Even the winemaker has been packaged by brother Mo to Dengzhou. Now the whole Gaochang is making raisins."


    "That''s the loss of Gaochang people, but it''s the gospel of our people in the Tang Dynasty!" Chumo said with a smile.


    "That''s not true. In the past, Gaochang fine wine was brewed no more than to enrich the royal family. The income of raisins was much higher than that before, and everyone can make them. Now the life of Gaochang people is much better than before." Kong huisuo said truthfully.


    It was the booming business of raisins that benefited the people of Gaochang, which made Datang stand firm in Gaochang.


    "That''s true." several people raised their glasses one after another. For a moment, it seemed as if they had returned to the happy years and recalled the friendship of their classmates.


    After three rounds of wine, Chumo waved his hand and said, "since Gaochang has been decided, I don''t think brother Kong should go back. Our brothers often get together in Chang''an city. Isn''t it fast?"


    Kong huisuo shook his head and said, "it''s not that simple. Although Gaochang is determined, after all, the time is too short, the homonymy has not been fully implemented, and the West Turks are eyeing outside. Kong''s return to Chang''an City this time is to ask the imperial court to increase the garrison to deal with the threat of West Turks, but he has been rejected many times."


    "Why?" Wei Chi Baolin wondered. Everyone knows the importance of the western regions. As long as there are soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, the silk road can be unblocked.


    Qin Huaiyu thought: "what else can I do? I think it''s because it''s too far away and there''s not enough food and grass. I can''t feed too many soldiers and horses."


    To cope with the threat of Western Turks, the garrison of the Tang Dynasty should be mainly cavalry, and feeding cavalry means greater consumption. The output of Gaochang and other places can not feed a large number of cavalry.


    Kong huisuo nodded and said, "brother Qin is right. Gaochang is seven thousand miles away from Chang''an City, of which there is a vast sea eight hundred miles away. The road is difficult to travel. Although some merchants have transported grain in exchange for raisins, it is still difficult to meet the needs of the army."


    "Then garrison the fields!" Chumo thinks about the cableway. Garrison the fields is the only magic weapon for the imperial court of all dynasties to guard the border. It can not only reduce the loss of long-distance grain transportation, but also reclaim the border and attract mainland people to settle down.


    Kong huisuo shook his head and said, "the imperial court naturally thought of this method. However, Gaochang is extremely hot and the precipitation is scarce. Glacial melt water can only be used to irrigate farmland. Now all the suitable land for farming in Gaochang and other places have been planted with vineyards. Where there is surplus land to plant crops. If the vineyards are forcibly destroyed and cultivated, it will lead to civil unrest in Gaochang, and the imperial court is also in a dilemma."


    "What''s the difficulty?" Qin Huaiyu said.


    Kong huisuo said happily, "brother Qin, you have a good plan."


    "No!" Qin Huaiyu cut the nail and cut the railway.


    Kong Hui was angry at Thornton. You''re still bragging there without a good plan.


    "But usually at this time, we will give the problem to brother Mo, who can always solve it easily." Qin Huaiyu spread his hands and said shamelessly.


    Chumo, who is on the other side, helps to say, "yes, brother Mo, don''t hide at this time. After all, you are the first to defeat Gaochang!"


    "However, since brother Mo has a test field outside Chang''an City and can plant trees in the desert, it''s a piece of cake to cultivate fields in Gaochang." Wei Chi Baolin learned from Kong huisuo, not to mention how strange it is.


    Merton knew that at this time, the three people would ease the relationship between him and Kong huisuo, and he didn''t want to lose Kong huisuo, a former brother. He pondered for a moment: "If you want to reclaim farmland, you must have water, and precipitation in Gaochang and other places can''t be expected. You can only rely on glacier melt water. The top priority is to transport glacier melt water to reclaim farmland as much as possible. The only way is to build water conservancy and open canals."


    Although Kong huisuo didn''t want to accept Merton''s kindness, after all, it was related to Gaochang''s grand plan. He could only put aside his personal gratitude and resentment. He shook his head and said, "we also thought of this method, but the canal will dry up if it can''t flow far. It''s not helpful and can''t meet the requirements of irrigation."


    "This phenomenon has been discussed with his Highness the king of Wei. The water loss in the canal is serious in one case and huge in the other. It is obviously both in Gaochang. It is also very simple to solve it first. Mojia village plans to divert water from shibie Lake by pipeline to provide clean water source for the whole Chang''an city. Gaochang can learn from it."


    "Use the pipeline?" Kong huisuo shook his head. Neither the cost nor the quantities can be realized in Gaochang.


    Merton smiled mysteriously: "the pipeline is expensive, and it is not feasible to carry water on the ground. Why don''t brother Kong follow the example of underground rivers and dig tunnels underground to carry water.


    "Dig a tunnel to deliver water." Kong huisuo was shocked suddenly. He thought deeply, but he couldn''t catch the light.


    "Yes, it''s a tunnel for water delivery. Mo once dug a tunnel under Gaochang city. The tunnel is dark and humid, which can reduce infiltration, and the evaporation is almost negligible. As long as the water source is introduced, the tunnel can become an underground canal. Theoretically, as long as the tunnel is long enough, the water source can be transported to the place where it wants to be delivered. If water is needed along the way, it can be above the underground canal Dig wells and take water at the wellhead to maximize the use of glacial water for living and farmland irrigation. The Mohists call this water conveyance method the well canal method. "Merton spread his hands.


    "What a huge project it will be to dig a tunnel to carry water!" Kong huisuo took a cold breath.


    Merton nodded: "The amount of work is really huge, but it is the only solution. The tunnel excavation is simple and can be completed by a few craftsmen. Now the Mohist school has invented the method of multi-stage excavation when building the Qinling tunnel. As long as there are enough people to open the wells and canals at the fastest speed, wherever there are wells and canals, there will be water sources. Naturally, Gaochang can garrison the fields and troops without fear The threat of Western Turks. "


    "Brother Mo is brilliant. Kong thanked brother Mo for his tricks for the people of Gaochang today." Kong huisuo solemnly got up and thanked him.


    He knew that this law would not only stabilize the rule of the Tang Dynasty in Gaochang, but also benefit countless Gaochang people, and even the whole western region would benefit from this well canal law. He had to accept this favor from both a personal point of view and the Confucian idea of educating the world.


    "Brother Kong is serious. It is our duty to benefit the world. Only by competing with each other can the world make continuous progress and benefit the people." Merton pointed out. He knew that Confucianism had completely shaken because of the clothing dispute and wanted to resolve the dispute through Kong huisuo.


    Kong huisuo frowned and didn''t answer. Mohism was the winner of the clothing competition. It naturally wanted peace. However, Confucianism was a loser, so it was difficult to calm down.

 Chapter 1306

    "Now that it''s for this reason, Qin will be fair. Qin will wear long clothes and Confucian clothes on formal occasions. However, at other times, he will wear ink clothes, because ink clothes are very convenient and have their own advantages." Qin Huaiyu pointed out the matter directly.


    Chumo nodded and said, "Cheng is a vulgar man. He is most annoyed by vulgar etiquette. It takes at least two minutes to wear Confucian clothes, but it takes only 30 seconds to wear ink clothes. His coat can be put on directly. There is no need to button at all."


    Whether it''s short sleeved in summer or down jacket in winter, it''s either put it on directly or pull it with a zipper. It''s simple and convenient. The ink jacket alone has burst the Confucian jacket.


    "Ink clothes are cheap!" Wei Chi Baolin hit the nail on the head.


    A decent ink dress costs only tens of Wen, while an ordinary Confucian dress costs hundreds of Wen, which is no longer a tangled choice for most families.


    Kong huisuo could not help but be silent. Ink clothes are cheap and convenient, and the styles are novel, while Confucian clothes are expensive and cumbersome. In contrast, Confucian clothes have been defeated. However, Confucian clothes are the faith of his life. How can we see them die out gradually.


    Merton shook his head and said: "What you said is only superficial. The fundamental purpose of clothing is to keep warm and keep warm. The birth of zipper can make clothing airtight, and fewer clothes can keep warm. The same is true for down jacket, which is very popular. It is people''s most instinctive demand to be light and warm. Even if Mohism is still silent, Confucian clothing will gradually be changed by these two technologies, but Mohism has accelerated It''s just a process. "


    Kong huisuo objected: "the reason why people are people is that people know etiquette. If they only know how to keep out the cold, but what''s the difference between them and savages, we have established dress etiquette for thousands of years in China. How can we say to throw it away."


    "China is indeed a country of etiquette, but the costumes of the Tang Dynasty have not changed. Brother Kong can think about how the dispute between Confucian clothes and ink clothes is similar to that of Hufu, riding and shooting in those years." Merton said.


    "Hufu riding and shooting!" Kong huisuo was stunned. Today''s Confucian clothes were inherited from the previous Zhou rites. The costumes of the Zhou Dynasty in the Warring States period paid more attention to etiquette than today''s Confucian clothes, but they were generous and inconvenient, which eventually gave birth to Hufu riding and shooting.


    Today''s improved Confucian clothes have once again become the clothes of the Zhou Dynasty, and will be replaced by more convenient and warm ink clothes. This is simply the Tang version of Hufu, riding and shooting.


    The only difference is that the Hufu, riding and shooting of the state of Zhao is a top-down reform, while the "Hufu, riding and shooting" of the Tang Dynasty is a bottom-up clothing reform, and the people spontaneously chose ink clothes.


    Kong huisuo Leng hummed: "even the once Hufu, riding and shooting were just improving the Zhou clothes, and did not completely cut off the etiquette. Now I''m afraid only scholars can wear the elegant Confucian clothes. I''m afraid that before long, my Chinese dress etiquette will disappear. The people all over the world don''t know the dress etiquette. Confucianism can''t tolerate it anyway."


    One is etiquette and the other is warmth. Confucian clothes and ink clothes occupy the two commanding heights of clothing respectively, which can be said to be invincible to each other.


    Merton nodded and said, "so this is the reason why Mo invited brother Kong to settle the dispute over Confucian and Mohist clothes peacefully."


    "Peaceful solution?" Kong huisuo couldn''t help smiling bitterly. Now ink clothes have occupied more than half of the country. The defeat of Confucianism clothes has been decided. How can it be solved peacefully.


    Merton said: "just like Hufu riding and shooting, it is the Confucian clothes that finally attract the advantages of Hufu, which leads to the Confucian clothes of later generations. Now if the Confucian clothes want to be inherited, it must be changed for the second time. Now, Mo sincerely invites brother Kong to combine the advantages of Confucian clothes and ink clothes to make a new set of clothes that is both ceremonial and warm."


    "Change Confucian clothes."


    Kong huisuo frowned and thought, and finally nodded. It is obvious that Confucian clothes have been at a disadvantage. Changing Confucian clothes may be a good way. At present, it has not stopped Merton''s behavior.


    Merton stretched out his hand and clapped. Suddenly the screen on the right opened. Aunt Xu, a famous Mohist garment maker, was sitting in front of the sewing machine.


    "Young master!" aunt Xu motioned.


    "Aunt Xu, please tailor a suit for brother Kong." Merton said solemnly.


    "Master Kong, please come this way." aunt Xu got up and measured Kong huisuo''s waist personally.


    After measuring, aunt Xu immediately found a heavy black cloth among the cloth.


    Kong huisuo frowned and the Mohist school was still black. If he wore black clothes, it would inevitably make people think more, but now it''s just a trial, and Kong huisuo didn''t stop it.


    Aunt Xu is really a master of clothes making. She picked up the black cloth and quickly made a suit of close fitting ink clothes.


    "Ink clothing is recognized as convenient and comfortable. The new clothing takes ink clothing as the body and Confucian etiquette as the soul," Merton explained.


    "Confucian etiquette is the soul? This dress will be regarded as ink dress at first sight. How can it reflect Confucian etiquette?" Kong huisuo retorted.


    Merton did not answer, but turned to Aunt Xu and said, "five buttons are made in the front, which represents benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith."


    Aunt Xu nodded and soon nailed five buttons evenly on the front of the new dress,


    "Four symmetrical pockets on the chest represent courtesy, righteousness and shame," Merton continued.


    "The cover of the bag is an inverted pen holder, which means to worship culture and promote education."


    "Three buttons on the cuff represent three times a day."


    "No crack on the back means that the world is unified."


    "The lapel stands for rigorous governance."


    As Merton finished sentence by sentence, he even reflected the Zhou Dynasty etiquette and other contents of the book of changes on his ink clothes, which contained meaning, and even matched perfectly.


    "This is the most perfect combination of Confucian clothes and ink clothes," Qin Huaiyu said with exaggerated praise.


    Although Qin Huaiyu''s words were exaggerated, Kong huisuo did not refute it. This new dress can be said to perfectly reflect the Confucian etiquette and simply put the soul on the ink dress.


    Not only that, when Qin Huaiyu put on this new dress and looked at himself in the mirror, he couldn''t help but brighten his eyes. It was both personal and spiritual. The only disadvantage was that the lapel was stuck. When he thought that the significance of lapel was rigorous governance, he suddenly felt that this disadvantage was nothing?


    "I''m so energetic, aunt Xu. I want to wear such clothes too." Chumo can''t wait.


    "I want it too!" Wei Chi Baolin doesn''t talk much at ordinary times and never falls behind when it''s good.


    "Well, I''ll do it for you now." aunt Xu was very familiar with them and couldn''t close her mouth with a smile. She spoiled her face.


    "Brother Kong, what do you think?" Merton asked.


    Kong huisuo sneered and said, "Kong was almost fooled by brother mo. this new dress can''t even see the shadow of Confucian clothes. If Kong rashly promotes it in Confucianism, I''m afraid it will destroy the last foundation of Confucianism and make Confucian clothes completely defeated."


    "What''s the difficulty? Ink magazine and Confucian magazine can jointly publish a newspaper statement to make the meaning of this dress public. People all over the world naturally know the meaning of this dress."


    "Although this is useful, I''m afraid those Confucian old people won''t agree." Kong huisuo shook his head and said.


    Merton said with a smile, "if you don''t agree, it''s OK. Wait a minute, Mo will change this suit, add the Mohist concept, and build it into a Mohist formal dress to promote the world. There''s no loss."


    Kong huisuo couldn''t help but sink in his heart. Then he remembered that if the cultural heritage was discussed, Mohism was no worse than Confucianism, and this dress could be said to be made from the essence of Mohism. In addition, Mohism became the formal dress of Mohism, I''m afraid there would be no chance for Confucianism to turn over.


    You know, others can see that this is an ink dress at a glance, but they can''t see the meaning represented by a few buttons and pockets.


    "Kong will try to persuade Confucianism," Kong huisuo said, gnashing his teeth, and finally signed the alliance under the city.


    "I knew brother Kong would agree. Since this suit is the product of the cooperation between Confucianism and Mohism, it''s not appropriate to call it ink suit or Confucian suit. It''s better to call it Tang suit in the name of the Tang Dynasty!" said Merton.


    "Tang costume!" Kong huisuo nodded solemnly. In this way, we can not only get rid of the influence of ink clothes, but also openly show the Confucian concept.

 Chapter 1307

    There is no suspense, when Confucianism finally agreed to Merton''s proposal to change the Tang costume, a Tang version of Hufu, riding and shooting, and jointly launch the Tang costume.


    Confucianism and Mohism have great energy. Together, the two major garment workshops in Chang''an City worked overnight to promote Tang costumes to the market in the shortest time.


    As soon as it was launched, it immediately caused a sensation. The convenience of ink clothes combined with Confucian etiquette was a combination of Wang fried. The Tang costume suddenly attracted everyone''s attention. The Confucian children no longer resisted, especially the scholars who bought one after another, and were proud to wear the Tang costume.


    The Mohist school is more direct, directly positioning the Tang costume as the official costume of the Mohist school. It is necessary to pass on the Tang costume on some formal occasions, regardless of the Confucian etiquette on the Tang costume, which makes the Confucianism believe that Merton is sincere cooperation.


    For ordinary people, it was an uproar. No one thought that the end of the dispute between Confucian clothing and ink clothing was the integration of the two kinds of clothing.


    In addition to representing the etiquette of Confucianism, Tang costume also has the most important significance, that is, equality. People from dignitaries to ordinary people can wear Tang costume, which further stimulates the sales of Tang costume.


    "Shifu''s personal action is too bullying." Wu Meiniang murmured discontentedly in the ink house. She thought her down jacket was already an invincible existence in the clothing industry. She didn''t expect that it was Shifu who beat herself. As soon as Tang costume came out, she immediately surpassed the down jacket in sales.


    However, Wu Meiniang said so without worry, because the cold winter is coming, her down jacket will continue to sell well.


    Merton shook his head and said, "the dispute between Confucian clothes and Mohist clothes is not good for Mohism and Confucianism. Being a teacher just wants to end this senseless dispute as soon as possible."


    "But it''s too cheap. They didn''t do anything, so they sat down and reaped the benefits." Wu Meiniang snorted coldly. In her opinion, the victory of the Mohist School in the clothing dispute is settled, and there''s no need for Confucianism to take a share.


    "The peaceful rise of Mohism is not afraid of Confucianism, but there is no need to force Confucianism to a dead end. Now that the Tang costume is out, Confucianism has a step down," Merton explained.


    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "although there are Tang costumes, I''m afraid Confucianism will think this is an alliance under the city and may not appreciate it."


    Merton snorted coldly and said, "I don''t appreciate it. It''s not because of you that I am a teacher!"


    Wu Meiniang was weak and said, "I haven''t been in trouble recently. I''m all in the down jacket workshop!"


    "I didn''t get into trouble. Your down jacket not only changed the pattern of Confucian and ink clothes, but also changed the pattern of Confucian and ink clothes. Now, although the Confucian and ink families haven''t torn their faces, I''m afraid it''s difficult to return to the previous friendly situation." Merton''s face is dignified. The honeymoon period of Confucian and ink, which he has worked hard to manage, is directly damaged by the competition for clothes.


    Wu Meiniang was at a loss: "master, what should I do?"


    Merton solemnly said, "I called you here as a teacher to tell you the position and principles of Mohism under the new relationship between Confucianism and Mohism."


    "Please make it clear," Wu Meiniang said respectfully.


    "Nowadays, with the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty, the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism has become irreconcilable. Let alone the ancient gratitude and resentment between Confucianism and Mohism, it is that now Mohism is better than Confucianism in clothing, which has aroused the vigilance of Confucianism and is unwilling to lose its status of exclusive respect for Confucianism. If Mohism wants to revive, it is destined to cause contradictions," said Merton.


    In the past, although there was a threat to the revival of Mohism, Confucianism was still the mainstream and did not pay attention to Mohism. Now Confucianism has tasted the first defeat in clothing. Mohist threat theory has become a reality, and Confucianism will naturally change its attitude towards Mohism.


    Wu Meiniang sneered: "there are specialties in the art industry. The rise of ink clothing benefits from the progress of ink technology. Confucianism clothing has been the same for thousands of years. Why don''t you reflect on yourself and don''t want to make progress."


    "It''s not important to wear ink and Confucianism. What Confucianism really values is the first defeat, which has always been respected by Confucianism. Confucianism can''t accept it anyway. Fortunately, he used Tang costumes to resolve the dispute for the teacher, otherwise the Confucianism and Mohism will completely quarrel." Merton said directly.


    Wu Mei Niang frowned and said, "but the power of Mohism is not enough to compete with Confucianism! So master is going to tell disciple how to go next."


    Merton nodded. "Although Confucianism is dissatisfied with the rise of Mohism, 100 schools have their own advantages. If Mohism wants to revive, its foundation still lies in Mohism technology. This cannot be changed. Only Mohism can achieve Mohism revival by constantly improving itself."


    "I understand!" Wu Meiniang was taught.


    "As for Confucianism, there is no need to be afraid. Now the Tang Dynasty is in its heyday, when there is a lot of waste waiting to flourish, and when we need Mohism. In such an environment, Confucianism can''t rashly attack Mohism, otherwise Confucianism can''t pass even your majesty. Should we compete or cooperate with Mohism?" Merton sneered.


    "Both competition and cooperation!" Wu Meiniang could not help realizing that this is what Merton said about the principle of treating Confucianism.


    "Also, there are hundreds of other schools in Guangjiao. The imperial court has respected Confucianism for hundreds of years, and the other 100 schools have long been dissatisfied with it. Confucianism can deal with one Mohist school, but can''t deal with the other 100 schools. The combination of Mohist School and other 100 schools is enough to make Confucianism avoid rats." Merton smiled. He came from later generations and knows the diplomatic tactics of rabbit state like the back of his hand, It can be said that it is appropriate to use it on the contention of a hundred schools of thought.


    "I understand! Over time, the Mohist school may not be able to replace Confucianism." Wu Meiniang said excitedly, and was immediately full of confidence in the future of the Mohist school.


    Merton shook his head and said, "then you are wrong. The purpose of Mohism is not to replace Confucianism, but to coexist with Confucianism and Mohism. The trend in the future is to cultivate a hundred schools of thought. The era of a single family will completely disappear, and the contention of a hundred schools of thought is the king."


    Confucianism and Mohism have their own fields, which is the fundamental reason why Mohism can still be revived after thousands of years of silence. Even if Mohism surpasses Confucianism in the future, it is impossible to replace Confucianism.


    "Yes, master!" at this point, Wu Meiniang really understood the future route of Mohism, and her heart was a little more confident.


    Suddenly, Wu Meiniang hesitated and said, "master, am I really the mistress of NvZhu Chang? Master, that''s how she instructed her disciples."


    She saw that Merton gave the future plans of Mohism one by one without hiding anything. In addition, it was said that she was the female owner of Chang, who had already been distressed in her heart, so she couldn''t help asking.


    Merton suddenly laughed and said, "the so-called female Lord Chang is just the prophecy that the Yin and Yang family framed you. There is no good luck in the world. Do you really think that your achievements today are due to the female Lord''s good luck, or that the down jacket you make can''t be made except you."


    Wu Meiniang shook her head. Every ink technique she developed was experimented day and night. Since she can do experiments, naturally others can do experiments.


    "Since everyone can do it, are they all women? You can achieve this not because you are a woman, on the one hand, because of your efforts, on the other hand, because you stand on the shoulders of Mohist sages, and sooner or later, Mohist descendants will stand on your shoulders and see further," Merton warned.


    "I understand!" Wu Meiniang said relieved.


    Merton nodded. Maybe Wu Meiniang in her previous life could achieve the success of the female master because of various coincidences, but in this life, when he accepted Wu Meiniang as an apprentice, Wu Meiniang''s life path had changed and it was impossible to copy the miracle of her previous life.


    However, Merton believes that Wu Meiniang''s achievements are not inferior to previous lives. A female emperor has only a temporary impact on China, while the revival of Mohism will affect China for thousands of generations.

 Chapter 1308

    The cold wind was howling and the snow was falling.


    With the first heavy snow in Zhenguan''s 15 years, the land of the Central Plains is covered with silver and everything withers. The winter of the Tang Dynasty has come.


    As Wu Meiniang expected, with the advent of winter, the warmth of down jacket has been really confirmed. Whether in terms of warmth, lightness or appearance, down jacket is far better than cotton jacket, and once again ushered in a hot sale. The position of ink clothing has been consolidated again.


    With cotton padded clothes and down jackets, the people of the Tang Dynasty can safely survive this cold winter. However, Xue yantuo, who is far away in the far north, is not so lucky. After the defeat of the grassland war, Dadushi led Xue yantuo''s disabled soldiers to flee madly to avoid the pursuit of the Tang army.


    However, Xue yantuo paid a huge price and finally escaped the pursuit of the Tang cavalry, but he did not escape the pursuit of heaven. It snowed in August on the prairie. After the defeat, Xue yantuo''s remnant army, who lacked supplies, was frozen to death and frostbitten, and suffered heavy losses.


    However, this is not the end. This winter, Xue yantuo suffered another white hair disaster, which made it worse for the tribes that had suffered heavy losses.


    At the foot of dujin mountain, Zhenzhu Khan Yi man''s tooth tent, Xue yantuo''s faces were as cold as the cold winter outside.


    "Back to Khan, the snow disaster has seriously damaged our department, and countless cattle and sheep have been frozen to death, resulting in heavy losses." Xue yantuo, Wang Ziba, reported with a heavy face.


    Originally, the eldest son Dadu set was the most important thing for Zhenzhu Khan Yi man. However, Dadu set failed miserably in the battle of the grassland and has fallen out of favor. Now Xue yantuo''s tooth tent is the most powerful son.


    "Our ministry suffered a serious disaster. Huihe Khitan and other tribes should have supported and issued orders. Now other ministries have recruited some cattle and sheep to spend this year''s disaster year." Yi man frowned.


    "My father doesn''t know. Now Xue yantuo has been defeated and Turks have returned. Other departments have different hearts. I''m afraid it''s difficult to obey Xue yantuo''s orders." Ba Zhuo frowned. Xue yantuo was seriously affected, and other ministries also suffered heavy losses. If we forcibly expropriate the cattle and sheep of various tribes, I''m afraid it will cause public anger.


    "If you don''t obey orders, kill them all and grab their cattle and sheep." at this time, a rude voice came, which was the most favored son of Yi man, LAN mang.


    Hearing his rude words, Yi man didn''t get angry, but smiled happily. The reason why he doted on him was not just because his mother was his favorite imperial concubine, but because he was most like him, cruel and scheming, and his direct son, Pao Shao, only learned his deeds, not the ruthlessness in his bones.


    "Send orders to those tribes. If they don''t want to kill the tribe now, they should send cattle and sheep obediently. The Turks now are not Turks ten years ago, and the Tang Dynasty is thousands of miles away, so they can''t save him." Yi man said with a cruel smile. If those tribes dare to keep giving orders, he doesn''t mind killing them all to make up for Xue yantuo''s loss.


    "My father is wise! With the cattle and sheep of these tribes, Xue yantuo can certainly recover from the threat of the Tang Dynasty." Lan mang said proudly.


    "A group of fools, now the Tang Dynasty is powerful and has the most powerful gunpowder weapon. It is invincible in the world. We can only seek peace for the Tang Dynasty and can''t make enemies with it." Yi Nan scolded. Although Dadushi was defeated, the reason for his defeat was not him. More than 100000 Xue yantuo cavalry besieged 3000 firearms army and suffered heavy losses, This made Yi man really see the power of gunpowder weapons.


    "Do we just sit and watch Turks grow up?" Bazhuo said reluctantly.


    "Of course not. We can''t provoke the Tang Dynasty. It''s not that we can''t provoke the Turks. The Turks want to have a foothold on the grassland. Not only Xue yantuo doesn''t agree, but also the grassland departments don''t agree." Yi Nan sneered.


    "Father means to continue to attack all Turkic departments while seeking peace with Datang." yanmang instantly understood Yi man''s intention.


    The Yi man nodded and said, "however, if you want the Tang Dynasty to favor Xue yantuo, you should offer Xue yantuo''s sincerity. Now Xue yantuo is still a vassal of the Tang Dynasty in name. Naturally, he wants to pay tribute. This year Xue yantuo paid 10000 horses, 10000 cattle and 10000 sheep to the Tang Dynasty to show his sincerity."


    "Ten thousand horses, ten thousand cattle and ten thousand sheep." Ba Zhuo and Yan mang were shocked. Even in ordinary times, these things are also a great wealth for Xue yantuo? Not to mention Xue yantuo''s misfortune and natural disasters, these horses, cattle and sheep are particularly precious.


    "Yes, just to let Datang see our sincerity. In addition, Ba Zhuo should follow Songzan Ganbu''s example, marry a Han woman and ask Tian Khan to give the title of princess." Yi Nan said.


    "Han woman!" Ba Zhuo was reluctant. He originally thought that only the princess of the Tang Dynasty was worthy of him. However, Ba Zhuo understood that the Tang Dynasty had cut off the road of marriage. In addition, even Songzan Ganbu did so, he could only obey.


    "If my brother doesn''t want to, my younger brother is willing to serve for me and marry a Han woman." Lan mang interrupted.


    "No, my son is willing." Bazhuo Lian hurriedly said. Who cares whether they marry a Han woman? They care about the title of princess. Once they have the title of princess, they can become Xue yantuo''s next Khan.


    "Well, let''s get ready!" Yi man waved to let them leave, but he was a little depressed.


    Originally, he wanted to replace the status of Turks and Xiongnu in the past, unify the grassland and compete with the Tang Dynasty. However, the cruelty of reality gave him a basin of cold water. The Tang Dynasty is invincible, but it does not mean that Xue yantuo will be slaughtered by the Tang Dynasty.


    At that moment, Yi man Khan clapped his hands and behind the tooth tent, the defeated Dadushi suddenly appeared in front of Yi man.


    "I tell you how things are going." Yi man said in a deep voice.


    "My son has imitated the sledge and skis of mojiazi on his way in the snow. Thousands of xueyantuo warriors can learn to travel in the snow and attack the Turkic tribes in a few days." Dadu said in a deep voice.


    "Start at once, you won''t go to school on the road. If you can''t learn, you''ll abandon it and let him freeze to death in the snow." Yi man Khan smiled.


    "Yes!" Dadushi suddenly felt cold in his heart and immediately turned away. This was his only chance to atone for his achievements.


    Yi man smiled coldly. He could bow down to the Tang Dynasty, but one mountain could not accommodate two tigers, and there was absolutely no room for Turks.


    When Xue yantuo destroyed the Turks, even the Tang Dynasty could not stay.


    With the heavy snow, Xue yantuo''s envoy braved the wind and snow, presented a thick gift list and headed for Chang''an. At the same time, envoys from various countries around the Tang Dynasty began to set out to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty.


    Shule, Khotan, Yanqi and other countries came from the western regions, Tubo from the southwest, Huihe, tiele and Turkic from the north, Koguryo, Baiji Xinluo in the East, and even Fusang came across the sea to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty. There are more Linyi in the south, Zhancheng and other countries from the south, and there are countless other small countries.


    For a while, all countries of the Tang Dynasty came to the court and the four sides came to congratulate. Chang''an City once again became the center of the world.

 Chapter 1309

    All nations come to Korea,


    As envoys from all over the world entered the Tang Dynasty, they trekked all the way to Chang''an City, which shocked them.


    The tall and majestic city wall is enough to frighten any enemy. The red brick roads in the city are paved, the feet are not stained with mud, the shops are numerous, and the people are noisy. I''m afraid the people in only one city are comparable to the population of a small country, which not only shocked the envoys of all countries.


    When they were placed in Honglu temple, they couldn''t wait to go out of Honglu temple and want to enjoy this remarkable city.


    A wide range of commodities, business trips from all over the world, and miraculous buildings have amazed all the messengers.


    "The Tang Dynasty is worthy of being the most prosperous country in the world," exclaimed a Lin Yi envoy.


    Many envoys from small countries nodded one after another. They couldn''t help but indulge in the prosperous customs of the Tang Dynasty. One by one, they scrambled to buy rare foreign objects and were ready to give them to their country''s leaders after returning home.


    "I really don''t know. The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is a manifestation, and it is the hundreds of schools of thought that make the Tang prosperous. As long as we can learn from the words of the hundreds of schools of thought, we can make our country rich and strong." the messenger of Fusang sneered in his heart. Fusang came across the sea to learn the advanced knowledge of the Tang Dynasty, The most prominent are Confucianism and Mohism.


    The achievements of Confucianism are in the political system, while the achievements of Mohism are in the economic construction. The magnificent Mohist organ City, the exquisite four clocks and the Weishui bridge across the Weihe River are all masterpieces of Mohism, which can not help but impress many insightful messengers.


    The messenger of Fusang came prepared and had already detected the intelligence of all schools. When he learned that the relationship between Confucianism and Mohism was suddenly hostile, he couldn''t help sighing in his heart. It seems that Confucianism and Mohism can only choose one family, otherwise he will get nothing.


    "Foreigners admire Kong Sheng and come to visit him. They also ask him to show mercy and give him knowledge to educate the world." Fujiwara, the messenger of Fusang, first took action. Fujiwara personally visited the Confucius house in the name of emperor Shuming of Fusang and asked for Confucianism.


    Kong Yingda''s face was happy. He didn''t expect that the messenger of Fusang would admire Confucianism so much. If he could popularize Confucianism in the surrounding countries, wouldn''t Confucianism win first in this hundred schools of thought contention.


    At present, he dressed up and invited Fujiwara to the Confucius house. In front of the portrait of Kong Sheng, he told the story of Kong Sheng, and said frankly whether to spread Confucianism to Fusang still needs to wait until his Majesty''s permission.


    As soon as the news came out, Confucianism suddenly became popular. Since the rise of Mohism, Confucianism has gradually declined. Now Fusang has come across the sea to study Confucianism, which can not help but give Confucianism a stimulant.


    As for whether your majesty agrees to teach Fusang Confucianism, in the view of Confucianism, Kong Yingda''s move is just a polite word. I''m afraid your majesty will not miss the opportunity to expand the influence of the Tang Dynasty.


    However, before the Confucianists were happy for too long, the news came that Koguryo''s envoy personally visited the Mohist School and personally promised the Mohist School''s consent. Koguryo personally canonized the Mohist school as the national religion and respected the Mohist school alone.


    "Only respect Mohism!"


    As soon as this news came out, all the schools of thought were in an uproar. How many schools of thought thought thought it was their dream to be respected by one family alone. Now only one Confucian family has realized it. How can the other hundred schools not have such a dream? Now the Mohist school is even at hand.


    However, this is not over yet. Soon, more powerful news came. The Mohists rejected Koguryo''s request, and even made it clear that Koguryo did not have to ask her majesty. The Mohists are the Mohists of the Tang Dynasty and will not spread to other countries.


    "I heard that mohou spent a lot of money on studying Mohism in the western country, and Confucianism was ready to teach Confucianism to Fusang. Why did Mohism cherish itself and refuse to accept Koguryo''s good intentions." yuangai Suwen, Koguryo''s envoy, retorted.


    "Mohism has no national boundaries, but Mohists have national boundaries! Mohism only works for the Tang Dynasty. If you admire Mohism, you can study it yourself." Merton said decisively, and Koguryo''s envoy yuangai suwu immediately left angrily.


    Watching yuangai suwu leave, Wu Meiniang asked in some doubt, "Fusang and Koguryo are both oriental countries. Why did Fusang choose Confucianism and Koguryo stare at Mohism."


    Merton explained: "that''s because the king of Fusang, Shu tomorrow emperor, is a Ming Lord. What he wants is to rule the world. Naturally, he needs to learn from the unified system of Confucianism and become stronger and stronger. Koguryo is a military general. He continues to use Mohist ink skills to improve his combat power and consolidate his power. If Koguryo grows stronger, he will not aim his knife and gun at the Tang Dynasty in the future."


    "Confucianism is really lucky to have such a good opportunity to expand, but my Mohist school can only remain complacent." Wu Meiniang regretted that the Mohist School rejected a good opportunity to respect the Mohist school.


    Merton sneered: "Good luck, that''s not true. Koguryo''s threat is now, while Fusang''s threat is the future. Fusang, which has been unified by Confucianism, is an island country with no foreign enemies. When it becomes stronger and stronger, it will expand its ambition and land across the sea. China''s ten thousand li Sea territory will suffer. In the future, its threat is no less than that of the Huns of Han Dynasty and the Turks of Tang Dynasty. Do we want to establish ten thousand li sea territory in Tang Dynasty The Great Wall! "


    After Merton''s comments on Koguryo and Fusang were spread without reservation, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar. No one thought that the two countries that admire all kinds of people should have such a great threat. However, hearing Merton''s analysis, people of insight could not help nodding slightly. What Merton said is reasonable.


    "Bullshit, Mohism sticks to the rules and Confucianism spreads abroad, which is the great prosperity of Confucianism. Mohists must be jealous of Confucianism, maliciously spread rumors and destroy the expansion plan of Confucianism." Kong Yingda heard rumors in the public, and his anger defeated the evil way.


    In his opinion, the Mohists had mastered too many secret skills, and the Tang Dynasty could not agree to let Goguryeo respect the Mohists alone, otherwise Goguryeo would become the biggest threat to the Tang Dynasty, and the Mohists saw this, so they sternly refused Goguryeo envoys.


    In order to bring Confucianism into the water, mojiazi openly publicized Fusang''s threat to Haijiang, which in his opinion is nonsense. For thousands of years, China''s Wanli Haijiang has been as solid as gold, and the threat to Haijiang is nonsense.


    However, the Koguryo incident also gave Confucianism a little warning. According to the original plan of Confucianism, once we seize the opportunity, we must completely suppress Confucianism. However, Mohism does not have no other choice. If Mohism is severely suppressed, it may be counterproductive to let Mohism go to other countries.


    The other hundred schools couldn''t help but be speechless when they saw the Sao operation of Mohism. Now Koguryo is ready to respect Mohism alone and Fusang is ready to respect Confucianism alone. These good things, which were originally envied by hundreds of schools, have made Mohists yellow.


    Originally, many envoys were contacting other hundreds of families. They were very excited and immediately let the other hundreds choose to wait and see, waiting for the statement of the imperial court.

 Chapter 1310

    "Mohism has no national boundaries, and Mohism has national boundaries!" Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction when he heard this sentence. He was very satisfied with the initiative of the Mohist school to refuse Koguryo''s exclusive respect for the Mohist school.


    The rapid development of the Tang Dynasty is due to the important achievements of Mohism, which is also the reason why other small countries continue to covet Mohism. If they can get the help of Mohism, their national strength will be greatly improved. Koguryo sees the advantages of Mohism and the situation that Mohism is now suppressed by Confucianism, and does not hesitate to make a commitment to respect Mohism.


    It is commendable that Mohism can hold the bottom line and respect the temptation of Mohism alone.


    "Li Shangshu, is the threat of Fusang to the thousands of miles of sea predicted by Merton true?" Li Shimin suddenly moved in his heart and turned to Li Ji.


    Li Ji thought about it and nodded: "Marquis Mo has foresight. Since Fusang sent Tang envoys across the sea, its warships can also be. If Fusang invades China at sea in the future and retreats to the vast sea in case of obstacles, I''m afraid it''s really difficult to defend the thousands of miles of sea."


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. Li Ji had the same idea. There were indeed hidden worries in this regard, but with the power of the Tang Dynasty, he did not pay attention to Fusang.


    "Fusang is just a small country. If they dare to invade the sea of Datang, Datang will certainly let them know what regret is." Li Shimin said confidently that with the national strength of Datang, how can a small Fusang dare to invade.


    Li Ji echoed: "Your Majesty is wise. It is unknown that Fusang can become a climate. In fact, whether Fusang or Koguryo, its threat is in the future. At present, the biggest enemy of our Tang Dynasty is the northern grassland, and even the threat of Tubo is much greater than Fusang."


    Neither Li Shimin nor Li Ji paid attention to Fusang. All along, the threat of the Central Plains came from the northern grassland. Defeating all parts of the northern grassland was the biggest strategic goal of the Tang Dynasty. Before that, Koguryo and Fusang could only be ranked behind.


    "Xue yantuo! Tubo!" Li Shimin''s eyes coagulated. These two are the biggest enemies of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, Xue yantuo is the main target of the Tang Dynasty.


    Wait a minute, that''s the time for envoys from all over the world to pay tribute. He wants to see how Xue yantuo will choose.


    "The foreign minister kowtowed to his Majesty the heavenly Khan!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, envoys from all over the world gathered and worshipped Li Shimin neatly.


    "Thanks to the compliments of all countries, I am honored to be Tian Khan. Now all countries are gathered in the Tang Dynasty, which is a great event to create a new world." Li Shimin said excitedly.


    It can be said that the visit of all countries to the DPRK is the most in history. Both the quantity and quality of the countries in the Tang Dynasty are far higher than those in other dynasties, let alone the first large-scale visit of all countries in the Tang Dynasty, which is of great natural significance.


    "Congratulations to heavenly Khan!" the envoys of all countries shouted in unison.


    Li Shimin sat down proudly. All the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty flashed a trace of pride. This was not just a group of envoys saluting Li Shimin, but the submission of all countries to the Tang Dynasty.


    At this moment, Datang is extremely glorious.


    "My king congratulates the heavenly Khan on his safety! He specially presented ten rhinoceros white jade as a tribute." the Zhenla messenger was unwilling to be lonely and jumped out first.


    "Our country of Linyi offers ten pearls and several rare corals." the envoy of Linyi is unwilling to show weakness.


    For a moment, many envoys were unwilling to show weakness and paid tribute to the treasures one after another.


    Li Shimin was so happy that he generously gave the reward. The envoys of small countries were not overjoyed. The value of the treasure given by Datang was several times more valuable than the tribute they paid. This is also the reason why many small countries enjoy paying tribute to Datang.


    It was not until the contributions of a number of small countries were completed that some countries with ulterior motives took action.


    "Tell the heavenly Khan that Koguryo will pay tribute to two haidongqing, ten thousand year old ginseng and several Minks to congratulate the heavenly Khan on his holy safety." yuangai suwu, Koguryo''s envoy, said respectfully.


    Li Shimin nodded slightly. They didn''t mind the other treasures. He was quite excited about the Millennium ginseng. Now the empress changsun is weak, and the Millennium ginseng can just replenish her body.


    "I think Koguryo is ambitious, not to mention that hundreds of thousands of Guanzhong children buried their bones in Koguryo in the previous dynasty. Now Koguryo''s military officials are good at power and the country''s leader is weak. At this time, seeking peace is just a move to paralyze the Tang Dynasty and can''t be trusted." just after Koguryo''s envoy finished, Kong Yingda couldn''t wait for impeachment.


    As soon as Kong Yingda said this, all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty shared a bitter hatred. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty fought against Koryo three times. Many Guanzhong disciples were killed and injured. Many people have not forgotten this hatred.


    Yuangai suwu suddenly changed his face. He didn''t expect that it was Confucianism who attacked him. At the moment, he defended: "the lesson of heavenly Khan, the war between Koguryo and the Sui Dynasty was a matter of the previous dynasty. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Koguryo has never had any gratitude and resentment with the Tang Dynasty. Kong Jijiu''s move is just a blow to the slander of restoring Koguryo''s sole respect for the Mohist school."


    Kong Yingda''s face remained unchanged and hummed: "how can I be as knowledgeable as the foreigners? Koguryo is ambitious. If you sincerely intend to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, you should first return the cities occupied at the end of the Sui Dynasty."


    Kong Yingda naturally did not care about the cities in the late Sui Dynasty. His move was to retaliate against Koguryo. Otherwise, if the trend of respecting Mohism was formed, it would be a disaster to Confucianism.


    A group of civil servants responded one after another, denouncing Koguryo for not respecting her father, using the heads of hundreds of thousands of Guanzhong children who died in the war to form the Beijing Temple, humiliating the Tang Dynasty, invading the surrounding tribes and so on.


    The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were filled with righteous indignation. Whether out of selfishness or justice, Koguryo was unforgivable.


    Li Shimin thought a little and understood the power of it. Hundreds of thousands of Guanzhong disciples died in Koguryo. This hatred can not be easily resolved, let alone the hostility of Confucianism to Koguryo. He immediately scolded yuangaisu Wu and said, "go back and tell yuangaisu Wen that his ministers coerce the Lord and don''t respect the king and father. This is against the way of saints. Let him repent as soon as possible. Don''t regret."


    Koguryo and Huaxia are feuds. In addition, Koguryo has always been a threat in the northeast of Datang. Now the leader of Datang is weak and the ministers are strong, which gives Datang a good opportunity to intervene. In contrast, those ginseng are not so important. Anyway, there are some channels to obtain ginseng.


    Koguryo''s envoy yuangai suwu withdrew bitterly. His trip to the Tang Dynasty made him depressed. First, he was severely rejected by the Mohist school, offended the Mohist school, and was scolded by Tang Emperor Li Shimin. Koguryo lost her face this time, not only in the Tang Dynasty, but also in other countries.


    Among the envoys of all countries, Xue yantuo''s heart turned and goguryo''s envoys were humiliated and would certainly hate the Tang Dynasty. Xue yantuo and goguryo, both northern countries of the Tang Dynasty, may be able to help each other and fight the Tang Dynasty together.

 Chapter 1311

    Fujiwara, Koguryo''s withered Fusang envoy, couldn''t help laughing. Koguryo couldn''t tell the situation at all. Mohism is quite magical, but Confucianism is the only one respected by the Tang Dynasty. How can you get benefits if you offend Confucianism.


    "Tell Tian Khan that our emperor paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty with 5000 taels of gold and 10000 taels of silver. Our emperor admired the learning of Confucius and Mencius, yearned for the Enlightenment of poetry and books, and asked his majesty to allow Fusang to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty to learn the way of saints in the Tang Dynasty." at present, Fujiwara, the messenger of Fusang, proudly stepped out and said respectfully.


    Suddenly, the face of the Manchurian officials changed. They looked at the messenger of Fusang with a pair of children to teach. A small country was even ready to learn Confucianism all over the country. How can such good things not inspire Confucianism.


    Li Shimin also nodded slightly. Confucianism is not as good as Mohist ink technology. What''s the secret? If Confucianism can be extended to Fusang, it can certainly expand the influence of the Tang Dynasty. Just as he was about to agree, a firm voice came.


    "I object!"


    When Li Shimin looked up, it was the Mo family who objected.


    Li Shimin frowned. Confucianism had just taken the opportunity to severely suppress Koguryo, who wanted to respect the Mohist school alone. The Mohist school was ready to retaliate against the Confucian state of Fusang.


    Kong Yingda looked at Merton and frowned. He drank coldly: "don''t raise the level of ink sacrifice wine. Ju Li threatened first, and Fusang threatened later. Datang and Fusang are separated by a strip of water and come from the same source. The two sides have never had an evil relationship. Don''t use the heart of a villain to treat the belly of a gentleman."


    All officials of the Manchu Dynasty nodded one after another. In their view, the messenger of Fusang was respectful and polite. He was also a small country. He was simply unable to threaten the Tang Dynasty. The move of the Mohist school was just to disturb the good deeds of Confucianism.


    Merton laughed and said, "Kong offered wine. Do you think Fusang really wants to respect Confucianism alone? I''m afraid you don''t know! Fusang envoys have spied on the Mohist village for many times. They secretly bought many craftsmen and stole the techniques of craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty and iron smelting techniques to strengthen Fusang."


    Kong Yingda couldn''t help looking embarrassed. He originally thought that the purpose of Fusang was to respect Confucianism alone, but he didn''t think that Fusang and Koguryo wanted Mohist ink skills, but Fusang''s means were more hidden.


    "Tian Khan is merciful. Fusang''s move is not malicious. However, Fusang people are poor and their secret skill of smelting iron is just to make farm tools for the people." Fujiwara quickly defended.


    Kong Yingda nodded and said, "loving the world is one of the teachings of Confucianism."


    Although he was angry that Fujiwara secretly collected ink skills, he had to defend Fujiwara in order to maintain Fusang''s reputation of respecting Confucianism.


    Merton said with a smile, "today you can smelt iron to make farm tools, and tomorrow you can smelt iron to make weapons. Mo said that Fusang''s different intention is not just speculation, but hard evidence. It is said that Fusang also wrote to the Sui Yang emperor to send envoys, which was angrily denounced by the Sui Yang emperor. Do you know why?"


    "The son of heaven sent a letter when he went abroad, and the son of heaven was fine when he didn''t." Yan shigu, a historian, changed his face.


    "Day goes abroad! Sunset Country!"


    When the man Dynasty''s civil and military face changed, he suddenly remembered this matter. In China, there has always been a saying that the sun sets in the west, but Fusang is suspected of provocation with the help of geographical location.


    "I just don''t know what is written in the national certificate?" Merton sneered.


    Li Shimin picked up Fusang''s National Certificate and looked at it. It read: "the Eastern Emperor respects the white Western emperor."


    "East emperor, West emperor!"


    Li Shimin sneered that there can only be one emperor in the world. Fusang called him Tian Khan, but he was called the Western emperor in the document. He was on an equal footing with their emperor and had no heart of submission.


    At that moment, my mind must be certain: "your Lord is the Eastern Emperor and I am the Western emperor. There is no vassal relationship between the two countries, and the so-called gift is naturally impossible to talk about."


    Li Shimin naturally knows the power of all schools of thought. It is wishful thinking for Fusang to want to learn from all schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty and maintain an arrogant attitude.


    "Ah!"


    The messenger of Fusang was surprised. He didn''t expect to arouse the disgust of the Tang emperor again. At present, he couldn''t help looking at Kong Yingda for help.


    Kong Yingda was also angry that Fusang secretly collected Mohist ink skills and directly ignored the help eyes of Fusang messengers.


    The envoys of all countries were shocked. Koguryo was refused to join the Mohist School and was suppressed by the Confucianism. The envoys of Fusang openly joined the Confucianism and secretly collected ink skills. They were also suppressed by the Mohist school. It was terrible for all the schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty.


    However, they did not know that Merton''s suppression of Fusang was not to retaliate against Confucianism, but simply wanted to delay the social process of Fusang. The slower the social progress of Fusang, the more in line with the interests of China.


    At present, only two old enemies, East Turk and Xue yantuo, did not attack the whole hall. Suddenly, everyone focused on the envoys of the two countries.


    East Turks initially gained a firm foothold on the grassland, and Turks also recovered some confidence. Li Simo held his identity and did not come. Instead, he ganchengji, who stayed in Chang''an City, was used as an envoy.


    "I would like to report to Tian Khan that all Turkic ministries would like to offer thousands of cattle, horses and sheep to congratulate Tian Khan on his holy safety." Hegan Chengji said respectfully.


    "It''s a pity that the grassland has just suffered a white disaster this year, otherwise the Turkic ministries will surely offer more tribute to tiankhan." Hegan Chengji added to show the loyalty of the Turkic ministries.


    "Have a heart!" Li Shimin nodded slightly. It''s good to be able to give so much just after the founding of the Turks. What''s more, Li Shimin wanted to see the attitude of Turks'' submission.


    After the Hegan Chengji finished paying tribute, the envoy Xue yantuo didn''t panic and said, "I inform Tian Khan that our Xue yantuo tribe is willing to pay tribute to tens of thousands of cattle, horses and sheep to congratulate Tian Khan on his holy safety."


    As soon as the messenger Xue yantuo''s voice fell, the whole Taiji hall was in an uproar, with tens of thousands of cattle, horses and sheep. I''m afraid this kind of heavy ceremony is the most tribute of all countries.


    No one expected that Xue yantuo, who had just been defeated by the Tang Dynasty, not only had no resentment, but paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty.


    Hegan Chengji''s face sank. He didn''t expect Xue yantuo to have such courage that he could take out so many livestock when the grassland was suffering from white disaster. Moreover, he also knew that Xue yantuo''s purpose was to please Datang, so that Datang could favor Xue yantuo in the future conflict between Turks and Xue yantuo.


    But this is what Datang wants to see. Li Shimin wants Xue yantuo to compete with Turkic Snipes and mussels, while Datang reaps the benefits.


    "Zhenzhu Khan wants to say hello for me." Li Shimin said with satisfaction.


    "Thank you, your majesty. Besides paying tribute to the Tang Dynasty, I also ask your majesty to marry a Han woman as the prince''s wife and give her the title of princess." envoy Xue yantuo took the opportunity to ask.


    "As long as a Han woman with Princess status is his wife!" Li Shimin''s eyes flashed. This is not without precedent. Songzan Ganbu did it that year, and this requirement can be said to be the only way to avoid the policy of non affinity in the Tang Dynasty.


    The other ministers felt that this requirement was not difficult. An ordinary woman could exchange decades of peace on the border. This business was cost-effective.


    "It''s Khan''s day. Xue yantuo''s ambition is to bully all parts of the grassland by using the name of Princess Datang. The Minister got an urgent report. Not long ago, Xue yantuo''s soldiers sneaked into all parts of the Turks in a sledge made by Marquis mohou. Xue yantuo''s heart is punishable." he ganchengji quickly dissuaded him.


    Once Xue yantuo gets the name of princess, he can establish the prestige of overlord on the grassland again. When he gets it, the Turks will be in danger.


    The messenger Xue yantuo pointed to Hegan Chengji and angrily said, "Your Majesty, Xue yantuo respects Tian Khan and is unwilling to fight with the Tang Dynasty, but Turks are not. When they dominated the grassland in those years, they not only bullied all parts of the grassland, but also invaded the Tang Dynasty southward. Turks returned to the grassland and will grow stronger in the future. They will surely retaliate for their humiliation. Your Majesty''s move is to let the tiger go back to the mountain. You can''t help it!"


    Hegan Chengji couldn''t help but feel empty in his heart. All Turks have the idea of restoring the glory of Turks, but the most important step for Turks today is to have a foothold on the grassland.


    As Merton analyzed, Koguryo''s threat is at present and Fusang''s threat is in the future. Turks and Xue yantuo are a former threat and a current threat. Li Shimin naturally knows who to deal with first!


    At that moment, Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I''m a heavenly Khan. All the world is my subjects. What you have to do is keep their own land and don''t rob each other."


    The messenger Xue yantuo and Hegan Chengji glared at each other and lowered their heads.


    "As for the issue of giving marriage, don''t mention it again. I''m willing to get married in the Tang Dynasty. Even if I''m not, it''s not necessarily the law of the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin waved his hand.


    Hegan Chengji couldn''t help but rejoice. At least in the current situation, Datang still prefers Turks.


    Xue yantuo''s envoy couldn''t help but look dark. He paid so many tribute to Xue yantuo, but Datang still preferred Turks. How can he not make Xue yantuo angry.


    Suddenly, Xue yantuo''s emissary will turn to yuangai suwu, the emissary of Koguryo not far away. One Xue yantuo is not enough to frighten the Tang Dynasty. What about Koguryo?

 Chapter 1312

    After the coming of all nations to Korea, the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism was really exposed.


    The Confucianists suppressed Koguryo, who openly respected the Mohists, and the Mohists suppressed Fusang, who openly respected the Confucianists. The Confucianists and Mohists tied, which could make the envoys of all countries sad.


    The purpose of all countries coming to Datang is not only to pay tribute to Datang, but also to the exquisite goods of Datang. If you can bring them back to your country, it will be a huge wealth.


    The world''s goods are the most exquisite in Mojia village, but Confucianism is powerful in the Tang Dynasty. If you offend Confucianism, it will not be so easy to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty next time.


    With the lessons of Fusang and Koguryo, these envoys from all over the world learned wisely and decided not to offend them. While pretending to admire the way of Confucius and Mencius, they humbly asked Confucianism for advice on Confucius and Mencius, they bypassed Mohism and asked the emperor to reward Mohist goods in order to bypass the stubborn Mohism. You know, Mohism doesn''t even give Koguryo a good face, They don''t want to be boring.


    Kong Yingda was embarrassed when he heard the news, but he was helpless at last. After all, Confucianism is no matter how strong it is, it can''t control these outsiders. Moreover, Fusang, who wants to respect Confucianism alone, has been suppressed by Mohism. Kong Yingda can only put the opportunity to expand the influence of Confucianism on other countries. This phenomenon is also turned a blind eye and greatly solicited, Open the door.


    Seeing the Confucian attitude, envoys from all over the world were determined and wrote to the imperial court one after another.


    "What, these envoys from all over the world asked the Mohists to give a batch of Mohist goods." Merton stared at the visiting linghude.


    The Minister of rites ordered Hu De to nod and said, "the envoys of all nations jointly wrote to the imperial court that they admire the material China of the Tang Dynasty. They have long heard that Mohist products are superior to nature and ask your majesty for a reward."


    "These ambassadors of all nations are addicted to whoring for nothing, and your majesty agrees?" Merton said urgently.


    Linghu de shook his head and said, "Your Majesty has not agreed yet. Many Mohist products involve secrets. Your majesty wants mohou to provide a batch of goods that do not involve secrets for the imperial court."


    Li Shimin originally wanted to open his mouth and agree. It slowed down when he thought that Merton refused the temptation of Koguryo to respect the Mohist School in order to keep his ink skills secret.


    Merton was relieved: "Mo thought this wind could not be opened. Since entering the Tang Dynasty, these envoys of all nations have been treated by the Tang Dynasty all the way. Although they pay tribute to their majesty, the reward of the Tang Dynasty is often several times that of the Tang Dynasty. If they are allowed to take Mohist goods back home, they will make a lot of money, which will not encourage the greed of envoys of all nations."


    Linghu de frowned and said, "the envoys of all countries are barbarians. If they are not driven by interests, they can willingly come to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute."


    In fact, how can the imperial court not see the behavior of the envoys of all countries taking advantage of it? However, for the sake of so-called face, it can only be lured by profit. If the envoys of all countries leave at a loss, I''m afraid they won''t come next time. The grand occasion of the coming of all countries in the Tang Dynasty will no longer exist, which the imperial court can''t tolerate.


    "Taking advantage for a while can only encourage the greed of envoys of all countries. If they can''t meet the appetite of envoys of all countries in the future, they will be eaten back in the future. Only mutual benefit is the long-term plan. After all, no matter how rich Datang is, it can''t stop so many envoys from collecting wool."


    "Pull up the wool!" Linghu dehu couldn''t help rolling his eyes, but had to admit that Merton''s description was very vivid.


    "In that case, let the Mohist family be the villain. Thank you, Lord Linghu, for telling your majesty that the Mohist family opposes the reward of envoys of all countries. If envoys of all countries want Mohist goods, they should add 30% tariff to the original price. Of course, they can only buy some goods designated by the Mohist family. In this way, the more goods rewarded by the court to envoys of all countries can be compensated with 30% tariff , not always losing money. "


    "Add 30% more tariff to buy? Would the envoys of all nations ever be willing?" Linghu de raised his eyebrows.


    Merton snorted coldly, "what do they don''t want? Even if they add 30% more tariff, they can earn 10 times and 100 times return after they are transported back to the country. Just like the Silk Road, only when driven by interests, someone will come all the way."


    Linghu de nodded thoughtfully, and then got up and went back to report.


    Sure enough, the imperial court is not stupid and has a lot of money. It agreed to this method. The Tang Dynasty is full of waste and needs a lot of money. Naturally, it is unwilling to do business at a loss all the time. Charging 30% tariff is just to make up for the loss. The villain let the Mohist do it again, and the imperial court has face again.


    When the news of Mohist''s opposition to the reward of Mohist goods to envoys from all over the world came out, all the envoys couldn''t help regretting. This time, they really stole chicken instead of rice. If they bought it directly, it would still be the original price. Now they are smart and want to go whoring with Datang for nothing, but they are beaten in the face by Mohist.


    However, even so, the ambassadors of all nations did not hesitate to immediately increase the price by 30% to buy Mohist products. Anyone with a little business vision knows that Mohist products are the best in the world. As long as they are transported back to China, they can get rich overnight.


    "It''s short-sighted to stick to the rules, and Mohism is isolated from other countries!" many Confucian scholars sneered at the price increase of Mohism. Any hundred schools dream of expanding their influence, but Mohism is even isolated from other countries.


    "One bird in the hand is better than a hundred birds in the forest. The move of the Mohist school is a wise move. The Mohist school is already struggling in the Tang Dynasty, and the Confucianism is eyeing it. How dare the Mohist school leave the slightest handle." other people of the other hundred schools think that the move of the Mohist school is just self-protection.


    "I think this move of Mohist school is sincere. Mohist school always serves and is loyal to the Tang Dynasty. This is the one hundred schools that are loyal to the Tang Dynasty." unlike the contempt and conspiracy theory of the upper class, Merton''s move is widely praised by the middle and lower classes, and the other hundred schools are eager to expand countries. Only Mohist school always stands on the side of the Tang Dynasty and does not move for the temptation of the outside world, This alone, Mohism is more popular than other hundred schools.


    "Hum, it''s just fishing for fame!" in Huichang temple, the defense machine sniffed at the move of Mohism.


    Other Buddhists nodded one after another, and the abbot of his colleagues drank coldly: "after the revival of Mohism, the Mohists are becoming more and more arrogant and arrogant, and they will eat the consequences sooner or later."


    "The Mohist School adheres to the rules and will be eliminated in the contention of a hundred schools of thought. I have heard a lot about the Buddhist School in Fusang. I don''t know if the Buddhist school is willing to travel to the east to preach the Dharma, so that outsiders can also have the chance to visit the Buddha Sutra." Fujiwara said respectfully.


    The Buddhist monks were overjoyed. Falin led the Tang monks to create the reincarnation method of spiritual children in Tubo, which has been widely spread in Tubo. If they can cross Fusang to the East and reproduce the miracle of Tubo Buddhism in Fusang, the momentum of Buddhism will rise greatly.


    "Da Shan, our Buddhism advocates the equality of all living beings. Both the people of the Tang Dynasty and the people of Fusang are our Buddhist disciples, and the Buddhism will treat them equally." Abbot Lang Shengdao of Tongren.


    Fujiwara folded his hands and bowed down: "I have always yearned for Buddhism in Fusang, but Fusang has a small country and few people, weak national strength and backward technology. I''m afraid to neglect the Buddha. I don''t know whether the Buddha can provide the process of casting Buddha for the Buddha to serve the Buddha."


    The defense machine was immediately unhappy. Fusang was really dishonest. He openly respected the Buddha. In fact, the Buddhist family needed to provide ink skills for Fusang.


    "But!" Abbot Tongren said without hesitation. He was not as green as the defense machine. He knew that there was no free lunch in the world. If you want to worship Buddha, you must give sufficient benefits to Fusang.


    "The people of Fusang are suffering. If the Buddhists can help Fusang change the current situation, the people of Fusang can have enough wealth to worship the Buddha." Fujiwara said respectfully again.


    "How dare you make a deal with the Buddhist family?" the debater was furious.


    Tongren Abbot looked at Fujiwara with calm eyes and said, "although there are craftsmen who have converted to Buddhism, they are ordinary people with backward skills, and Buddhism will not offend Mohism for the sake of Fusang."


    Abbot Tongren understood very well that Buddhism only has some ordinary crafts, and it is impossible for Buddhism to steal Mohist secrets for the sake of Fusang.


    "Fusang understands!" Fujiwara showed a trace of satisfaction. Fujiwara should have achieved nothing this time. It was an unexpected joy to pull over the Buddhist family. I didn''t expect to have an unexpected harvest.


    Buddhists are also very satisfied with the meeting. Confucianism and Mohism compete with Snipes and mussels, while Buddhists reap benefits. Buddhists are the biggest winners in this tribute to all countries.

 Chapter 1313

    The dispute between Confucianism and Mohism is rising again!


    After the event of tribute from all countries, the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism can no longer be covered up. Everyone knows that the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism has finally been detonated.


    In the past, the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism was a small fight, and finally ended with the concession of Mohism. Even the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism was peacefully resolved in Tang costume. However, this time, Mohism did not give in as before, but fought with Confucianism.


    "During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, a hundred schools of thought contended, but the most dazzling was the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism. The struggle lasted for a hundred years, and finally Mohism lost, and Confucianism finally achieved the status of respecting Confucianism alone." in the restaurant, an old man in hemp clothes spoke modestly about his position, telling all the gratitude and resentment between Confucianism and Mohism.


    "The defeat of Mohist school is a thousand years. Adhering to the spirit of Mohist School for a thousand years, Mohist son came out to lead the revival of Mohist school. I decided that this day would come sooner or later, but I didn''t expect it to be today." a middle-aged scholar sighed.


    Or is it a hundred schools of thought or a dispute between Confucianism and Mohism? The Millennium scene reappears and history repeats itself. What is the outcome of this dispute between Confucianism and Mohism? "


    Is it the Confucianists who eliminated the threat of Mohism while Mohism was still in its infancy, or the Mohists who took advantage of their thousands of years of luck to fight back against the previous shame.


    "No, the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism this time is different from the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism thousands of years ago. During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism was only limited to their two families. Today, Confucianism is only respected, and all other schools of thought are dissatisfied with it. Mohists saw the opportunity to make friends with all the schools of thought. Now it seems that Confucianism and Mohism are fighting against all the schools of thought led by Mohism, The Confucianists are in trouble this time. "The old man in hemp clothes has a sharp eye and sees through the current situation at a glance.


    "Mohist school is a good means!" the onlookers cheered.


    "Today''s world only respects Confucianism, and Confucianism is not vegetarian. The strength of Confucianism today is stronger than that thousands of years ago. It is impossible to allow Mohism to continue to win over other 100 schools against Confucianism, and it will certainly fight back." the middle-aged scholar frowned.


    "Then the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism will be more interesting." the old man in hemp clothes laughed. Confucianism wants other hundred schools to stand on his side, and will certainly come up with some interests. This is the success of other hundred schools of music.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, Confucianism also found the seriousness of the problem. The long-standing exclusive respect for Confucianism made Confucianism too arrogant and didn''t pay attention to the other hundred schools. Now it has been exploited by the Mohist School and formed a great force.


    "Wai Dan, a doctor and Taoist, followed closely with Mohism. The one pulse of arithmetic and Legalism were closer to Mohism." Kong huisuo frowned in the Confucius house.


    At present, Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, has retired. The only remaining medical leader, Chinese miracle doctor, is born in Mojia village. Mowu, a new doctor, is a child of Mojia. The maternal and child hospital is built by Mojia for Princess Changle. The medical instruments of the doctor are made by Mojia. Today''s doctors have been firmly tied to the Mojia.


    The same is true of the Taoist external alchemy vein. The external alchemy vein should have died, but it has been preserved by the Mohist school. Now it has developed rapidly. The strength of the iron reduction secret skill and cement secret skill in control of material immortality can not be underestimated.


    Kong Yingda was embarrassed. It was impossible for doctors and Taoist waidan to turn against Confucianism, because Confucianism could not give them any help. On the contrary, they cooperated with Mohism and took charge, and both of them took off.


    "How do you say it?" Kong Yingda asked.


    Kong huisuo bowed his head and said, "elder brother, I have no intention of participating in the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism. However, mathematics is a basic discipline. Both ordinary people and scholars and Mohists need mathematics, but the pulse of mathematics is also towards Confucianism."


    "Good abacus!" Kong Yingda snorted coldly.


    Confucianists do not pay no attention to arithmetic. There is mathematics in the Imperial College. However, compared with Confucianists, Mohists pay more attention to arithmetic. Not only Mohists are proficient in arithmetic, but even six-year-old children are required to learn arithmetic. Since both Confucianism and Mohism are inseparable from mathematics, it is not necessary to turn to that side. On the contrary, if Confucianism does not pay attention to mathematics, don''t blame it for turning to Mohism.


    "The foundation of Mohism is mathematics. The whole process of mathematics is not going back to Mohism, and Mohism is inseparable from mathematics. These old abacus take the initiative to show kindness to Confucianism just to get some benefits!" Kong Yingda snorted coldly, thought and continued


    "The Imperial College aims to revive the six arts of Confucianism and requires private schools everywhere to pay attention to mathematics."


    The six arts of Confucianism refer to ritual, music, shooting, imperial, calligraphy and number. Number is arithmetic. When it comes to mathematics, it still belongs to Confucianism. Unfortunately, with Confucianism''s exclusive respect for Confucianism, the six arts of Confucianism have gradually been abandoned, and the one vein of arithmetic has not been paid attention to. Now it has been picked up by the Mohist School and stolen the crystal tower. At the moment, Confucianism is making up for the lost sheep.


    "My uncle is wise. I believe that he will naturally consider the whole process of arithmetic, but Han Fuzi is very troublesome in the Legalists. Frankly, if Confucianism can offer the same conditions as Mohism, he will immediately lead the Legalists to leave the Mohist village." Kong huisuo said helplessly.


    "The same conditions as Mohism!"


    When Kong Yingda''s face changed, the Mohists gave Legalists the conditions for judicial independence and would not interfere with Legalists'' decisions, making Legalists flourish in the Mohists.


    However, the relationship between Confucianism and Legalism is quite different. It pays attention to using rites to resist the law, and uses rites to control the beast of legalism. When rites and laws conflict, they often need to follow rites and laws.


    "It''s just wishful thinking. Nowadays, outside Confucianism and inside law in the Tang Dynasty, this is the fruit of the integration and cooperation of Confucianism and law for thousands of years. It''s impossible for Han Fuzi to destroy the integration of Confucianism and law by relying on several different Legalists." Kong Yingda flatly refused.


    The horror of legalism was obvious to all in the pre-Qin period. Confucianism did not dare to release the beast of legalism. Even the jurisdiction given by Mohism, Confucianism did not dare to open this hole easily.


    "So, at present, only doctors and Taoist waidan are on the side of Mohism, historians are on the side of Confucianism, Legalists are not out of the control of Mohism, and the situation is a little bad!" Kong huisuo frowned.


    So far, the situation of contention among a hundred schools of thought has become clear. On the one hand, there is Mohist medicine and Taoism, and on the other hand, there is Confucianism, history and law. Among them, one pulse of mathematics is betting, one pulse of internal alchemy of Taoism is transcendent, and Buddhism is ignored. The yin-yang family is suppressed, which is at the lowest end of the contempt chain.


    Hundreds of schools of thought are contending. They even form gangs. There are many mountains, which has shocked the eyes of all walks of life in the Tang Dynasty.


    However, this is not over yet. Soon, a shocking news came. The local chronicles of Li Tai, king of Wei, was officially compiled into a book, including the evolution of counties, geographical outlook, names, mountains and rivers, cities, historic sites, myths and legends, and major historical events of the Tang Dynasty. In particular, a map of the Tang Dynasty described the style of the Tang Dynasty. As soon as it was published, it immediately became popular throughout the Tang Dynasty.


    What makes people all over the world pay more attention is, which side of the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism will this new geographical vein stand?

 Chapter 1314

    A new hundred schools of thought were born in the air, and under the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, it simply caused a sensation in the whole Tang Dynasty, one after another wanting to see the style of geography.


    For a while, "including local chronicles" and the new version of Datang map were directly out of stock, and geography became popular all the time.


    "Overprint! Overprint!"


    This is the voice of the whole Chang''an City printing bookstore, and it is also the influence of all schools of thought.


    As a new hundred scholars, Li Tai was talked about by the people of Chang''an, and his fame increased greatly.


    "Well, it''s worthy of being my UNICORN!" Li Shimin held the local records in his hand and couldn''t close his mouth with excitement. What about the hundreds of schools? My son can create a new hundred schools and directly rank among the sons.


    Li Tai was extremely favored and deeply loved by Li Shimin. Now he has lived up to public expectations and become one of the hundreds of scholars. How can he not make Li Shimin excited.


    "Thank you for your support," Li Tai said calmly. As a prince, he can devote himself to studying knowledge, which is naturally inseparable from the strong support of Li Shimin.


    "My Green Finch is thin!" empress Chang sun looked at Li Tai''s strong body and said painfully. After years of traveling around, Li Tai has become extremely strong instead of fat, but in the eyes of a mother, it is not caused by hardship.


    "Mother rest assured that the child is in good health. Now the child understands that if you want to be healthy, you need to exercise regularly, and the mother should also strengthen exercise. I believe you can recover in a few days." Li Tai hurried forward to help empress sun.


    Since Li Tai became obsessed with all kinds of people, he often traveled around the Tang Dynasty. The long-time travel made Li Tai healthy. All kinds of diseases caused by obesity have been cured without medicine.


    "Congratulations to the second younger brother, congratulations to the second elder brother!" Li Chengqian and Li Zhi both said congratulations.


    After Li Tai gave up the throne, the contradiction between him and Li Chengqian suddenly disappeared. Now the two brothers have thawed out, and Li Zhi is young and sensible. The three brothers are happy together.


    Li Shimin and the eldest grandson empress could not help but look happy when they saw the happy scene of the three brothers. No one would be satisfied to have these three excellent children, whether as a royal family or as a parent.


    The family get along well, but they all know that with the health of the eldest grandson queen getting worse, such time may not be much longer.


    "Tell your majesty that Princess Changle came with Merton to congratulate the founding of geography." suddenly, a eunuch came to report.


    "Changle!" Li Tai thought of his sister and couldn''t help but flash a soft color. However, he soon looked right. The eunuch''s notice was not Merton, the son-in-law, but Merton of the Mohist school, and it was obvious that Merton came as the Mohist school.


    Visiting the geographical pulse as a Mohist can recognize the geographical pulse, which is of extraordinary significance.


    "Go! Today is your big day!" empress Chang sun saw Li Tai''s mind and waved.


    "Please have a rest after your mother, and I''ll go back to entertain all the families." Li Tai nodded. He knew that Mohism was just coming first. So far, the other 100 families would come as promised, which was recognized by these old schools. That geographical vein would officially be among the 100 families, and he became one of the 100 families.


    "You don''t have to go back to King Wei''s house. I''ll entertain all the people in the Tai Chi hall. I''ll support you!" Li Shimin waved his hand.


    Li Tai''s identity is not only the son of a hundred families, but also the prince of the Tang Dynasty. The royal family came forward in person to make the opening ceremony of the geographical chain more glorious.


    Moreover, Li Shimin still has another mind. Recently, various schools of thought have even formed gangs. You know, the most annoying thing of the imperial court is to form parties for personal gain, and all schools of thought have been openly divided into two factions. Li Shimin naturally wants to take this opportunity to beat them.


    "Brother Mo!"


    In the Tai Chi hall, Li Tai warmly came forward.


    "Congratulations, your Highness the king of Wei! Now that geography has been established, I would like to congratulate the Mohist school again." Merton said solemnly.


    "It''s my great honor to be recognized by the Mohists," Li Tai replied.


    They exchanged greetings for a moment, and then they heard another notice that Confucianism came.


    "Come on, please!" Li Tai cheered up and hurried. Confucianism and Mohism are the first of the hundred schools of thought. Now Confucianism and Mohism all recognize that the geographical vein is one of the hundred schools in the new era, and the status of the geographical vein has been stable for most of them.


    "Confucianism congratulates the founding of the school of geography. For thousands of years, a new school of thought has been born in all schools of thought. This is a blessing for all schools of thought."


    Soon, Kong Yingda took Kong huisuo into the Tai Chi hall and congratulated Li Tai.


    "Thank you, master, thank you, brother Kong!" Li Tai saluted back.


    "Historians congratulate the founding of geography."


    "Doctors congratulate the founding of geography."


    "A line of mathematics congratulates the founding of geography."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Soon, people from other schools of thought came to congratulate the founding of geography.


    However, the actions of these various schools are very different. Historian Yan shigu stands on Kong Yingda''s side, and doctor Mo Wu directly follows behind Merton,


    Zumingjun came from mathematics. Zumingjun was very embarrassed. Neither side wanted to offend him, so he had to stand by himself.


    Soon, Taoism came. Unexpectedly, the internal and external Dan veins of Taoism came together. Both Li Chunfeng and Taoist Changsheng looked like immortals. Everyone knew that the two veins had gone farther and farther.


    Taoist priest Changsheng nominally belongs to Taoism, but in fact, his relationship with Taoism is not as close as that of Mohism. After saying hello, Taoist priest Changsheng touched the side of Merton, leaving Li Chunfeng messy in the wind.


    "Zu Xiaoyou!"


    Li Chunfeng was embarrassed. Suddenly, he saw that Zu Mingjun, who was involved in mathematics, was also alone. He came forward and said hello.


    "Li Daochang!"


    Zu Mingjun immediately received an amnesty, as if he had found an organization. Since he didn''t want to mix the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, why would he stand together with detached Taoists.


    Han Zheng, a legalist, came to see the form. With a cold hum, he went directly to Merton. Although the general trend of chaotang is the confluence of Confucianism and law, it is the judicial independence of Mohism that is the ultimate pursuit of Legalists.


    Many scholars and hundreds of schools came one after another. Even Li Jing came to congratulate on behalf of the strategists. Of course, he stood with Taoism.


    As for foreign Buddhists, they didn''t get the chance to appear at all. The defense machine watched he tie send them in and couldn''t help holding his hand. He vowed that one day, Buddhism will reappear and be on an equal footing with all schools of thought.


    Li Shimin looked on coldly. Now the form of the imperial court is finally clear. There are hundreds of schools of thought, including Confucianism, Mohism and several neutral schools, and there is no peace among the hundred schools. In the Confucian camp, Legalists are in Cao camp and their hearts are in Han Dynasty. One pulse of mathematics wants two things not to offend, and the other pulse of Taoist external Dan crosses the Mohist camp and the neutral camp.


    It''s a mess where a hundred schools of thought contend.

 Chapter 1315

    "Thank you all for coming to see the grand ceremony of Green Finch. I''m very grateful here." Li Shimin made a voice and gave a scene to Li Tai town first, so as not to make these thousands of families who have passed on for thousands of years ignore this new geographical vein.


    The hundred families quickly bowed their hands, and Kong Yingda led the way: "Your Majesty is indeed a man of great fortune. Not only did you start the country and determine the world, but even your Highness the king of Wei can achieve the words of a family. Both father and son have made great achievements, which is really a model for families all over the world."


    Li Shimin couldn''t help showing his pride. Lao Tzu is the emperor''s son and his son is the son of a hundred families. I''m afraid such a family combination is unprecedented. How can Li Shimin not be proud.


    "Thank you for your praise, green sparrow. You have just set foot in one hundred schools, and all the schools have a profound heritage for thousands of years. You will make a fool of yourself and ask for the knowledge of geography and let the hundreds of schools give you some advice." Li Shimin didn''t dominate and returned the home to Li Tai.


    Li Tai took a deep breath, went to the center, arched his hands to the hundreds of people and said, "Li Tai has made a fool of himself."


    "Your Highness King Wei, you''re welcome. We''re all ears to the great work of geography." the hundred people solemnly said that both Li Tai''s identity and Li Tai''s academic achievements are enough for everyone to treat equally.


    Li Tai nodded, looked around, and Zhou Lang said, "Li Tai is determined to create a geographical pulse. He has read the works of former sages, studied Li Sheng''s annotation of the water classic and Pei Xiu''s drawing method, and also practiced the five Confucian classics. He asked the Mohist School for advice on mineral veins. Finally, he collected the wisdom of his predecessors and learned from a hundred schools. Finally, he got a little gain, and compiled a book including local chronicles and a map of the Tang Dynasty."


    As soon as Li Tai''s voice fell, another map of the Tang Dynasty spread to hundreds of families. This map of the Tang Dynasty is different from the version circulated in the market, but describes the terrain, transportation and mineral veins of the Tang Dynasty in detail as much as possible.


    Li Jing looked at the hardcover version of Datang map in his hand, and his face became more and more dignified. From his eyes, he could see the military value of this version of map.


    Merton looked at the hardcover map in his hand, and looked at the newly discovered ore veins and suspected ore veins. He couldn''t help but be ecstatic. He did his best to support Li Tai''s creation of a geographical vein. As expected, he had a rich report. Once so many ore veins are mined, it will certainly make the Mohist school further.


    "In addition, the source of the Yangtze River is not the Minjiang River, but the Jinsha River. That is to say, it is wrong to say that Minshan guides the river and the source of the Yangtze River is the Jinsha River in the book of Shang Yu Gong." Li Tai threw a heavy bomb and immediately exploded among hundreds of families, No one thought that the great discovery of geography directly pointed out the mistakes of Shangshu.


    Kong Ying was born with a deep face when he arrived at Dayton. It seems that only strategists and Mohists have benefited a lot. This is not beneficial to Confucianism, but has become a stepping stone on the road to success.


    However, Kong Yingda''s face was not angry but pleased: "Shang Shu Yu Gong is a millennium work. His Highness the king of Wei can find out the shortcomings and make up the loopholes for Shang Shu and make it perfect. Instead of his ancestors, Kong thanked geography."


    When Kong Yingda said this, many hundred schools praised Confucianism for its magnanimity and character.


    Merton couldn''t help sneering. If Confucianism really has such character, and the Mohist School continues to crack the Confucian sense of heaven and man, it won''t retaliate against the Mohist school.


    "Thank you for Kong Shengzhi''s study. Geography can go further."


    Li Tai replied respectfully and continued: "in addition to finding that the Jinsha River is the main river of the Yangtze River, he also boldly guessed that both the Yangtze River and the Yellow River come from the Tibetan Plateau, and even the Yangtze River and the Yellow River come from the same source."


    Hundreds of people were in an uproar, which was a great discovery. You should know that the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are the two most important rivers in the Tang Dynasty. If you can prove that the Yangtze River and the Yellow River come from the same source, it would be an amazing discovery.


    Li Tai seemed to have guessed the thoughts of all the Confucians and continued: "however, this is only a study of natural geography by geography. In addition, geography also studies human geography, the origin of river transportation to the city, the promotion of culture, and the 5000 year progress of China, which are of great significance to our great Tang Dynasty."


    Kong Yingda''s face was a little slow. Human geography is indeed of great significance to Confucianism. Although he found the mistake of guiding the river in Minshan, the discovery of human geography is enough to make up for the loss of Confucianism.


    The knowledge of geography is both practical and profound. It soon conquered hundreds of people. Under the witness of hundreds of families, geography has officially ranked among the new hundred.


    "Congratulations, your Highness the king of Wei." hundreds of people congratulated one after another.


    "Thank you for your advice!" Li Tai replied one by one.


    Suddenly, an disharmonious voice came, and Li Shimin said with a smile: "I heard that the world''s knowledge is neither Confucianism nor ink, and the geography of Qingque has both natural geography and human geography. I don''t know whether it belongs to the Confucian camp or the Mohist camp."


    When Li Shimin finished, all the schools of thought were dead. Anyone could hear that Li Shimin was beating the recent phenomenon of gang building among the schools of thought. He couldn''t help but turn his eyes to Kong Yingda and Merton,


    "The old minister is guilty!" Kong Yingda panicked and hurriedly went out to plead guilty to Li Shimin. Now, in order to deal with the Mohist school, he has attracted hundreds of other schools recently, which can''t hide from Li Shimin''s eyes.


    "What do you think of Merton?" Li Shimin obviously didn''t intend to let them go so easily. He directly named Merton. To say that all schools of thought formed gangs, Merton was the best dancer.


    Suddenly, many people in a hundred families showed a look of schadenfreude and looked up at Merton to see how he ate.


    "Not to mention your highness Hui, the Shangshu has incorporated the geography book and the Shangshu Yugong into the book. The geography alone covers the terrain and cultural customs of all places, without a lot of calculation and experiments. It belongs to the Confucian camp." as soon as Merton''s voice fell, the whole hundred families were in an uproar. No one thought that the MOH family would answer Li Shimin''s proposition positively, And took the initiative to give up the geographical vein to the Confucian camp.


    "Mo''s offering wine is nonsense. Confucianism has no such thoughts." Kong Ying dadon''s face changed greatly. Although he wanted to bring the geography together, it was unfair for the Mohists to say so.


    Merton sneered: "this is not whether Confucianism has a mind or not, but a fact."..


    "Brother Mo!" Li Tai frowned and was ready to advise.


    Merton smiled and interrupted Li Tai: "although it is said that the geographical vein should belong to the Confucian camp, the geographical vein studies more about mountains and rivers, topography, mineral veins and hydrology. These belong to all things in the world, which can be called the most like Mohism in the Confucian camp."


    Li Tai''s face suddenly changed. His geographical pulse had just been born and his background was shallow. If he was really involved in the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, I''m afraid it would be more dangerous and less auspicious. However, even he had to admit that the geographical pulse was more like Mohism than Confucianism. It was hard to be caught in the middle, and he was more afraid of being excluded by both sides.


    "So, now it''s not a dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, it''s a dispute between the two factions." Li Shimin''s face is embarrassed. He doesn''t like to form gangs, and all schools of thought brazenly form gangs and don''t know how to repent.


    Merton didn''t know what Li Shimin meant. He smiled bitterly and said, "tell your majesty, it''s not a hundred families forming gangs for personal gain, but a forced hardship."


    Li Shimin sneered: "it''s the first time I''ve heard of this reason. I''d like to hear it in detail."


    Merton got up and said solemnly, "it still needs to start from the first hundred schools of thought."

 Chapter 1316

    "Thousands of years ago, for the first time, hundreds of schools of thought contended, hundreds of classics emerged one after another, and various theories flourished for a time."


    Merton said that all the people of the hundred schools of thought could not help showing a trace of pride. The hundred schools of thought were indeed the pride of that era.


    Merton''s voice turned and continued: "however, no one thought that the first hundred schools of thought contend is not only the starting point of 100 schools of thought, but also the peak of 100 schools of thought. After a thousand years, 100 schools of thought have not made any progress, and no one has even surpassed the sages. Today is invincible. Even if the pain of 100 schools of thought is the pain of the whole China."


    One hundred families nodded silently. In the millennium after the first hundred schools of thought contended, the hundred schools did not make any progress, and the whole academic community of the Tang Dynasty was in a stagnant water.


    Kong Yingda just wanted to refute, but he was speechless. Even Confucianism used Confucius'' theory. For thousands of years, let alone surpassing, it could not even reach the same level. After a thousand years, no one appeared to be comparable to the talents of Confucius, Mencius, Saint Xun and Saint Xun.


    "As for Mohism, it''s even worse. The two famous schools in the world were finally silent for thousands of years. After Mohism advocated Mohism, he reflected on the reasons day and night, and finally came to a conclusion that hundreds of schools have reached a peak and a bottleneck in their respective academic fields. One school alone can''t break through this bottleneck. Only with other hundreds of schools The contention of a hundred schools of thought is the first step in the cooperation of Mohist schools. The first step is to take the lead in the field of Mohist cooperation, to cooperate with the peasants and to cooperate with the doctors, to cooperate with Taoists and to cultivate hundreds of families, and to absorb hundreds of essences and nurture a family. "Today there are second hundred schools of thought contending."


    Many hundred schools nodded one after another. After the revival of Mohism, other hundred schools relied on Mohism to make rapid progress, which is also the reason why many hundred schools are willing to follow Mohism.


    Li Shimin''s face is a little slow. The cooperation among hundreds of families is indeed one of the conditions for the progress of hundreds of families, rather than forming gangs to compete for power and profits. However, these cooperation naturally form factions at the same time, but it is also an unstable factor.


    Merton continued: "in addition, some hundred disciplines have the same goal by different paths, and they have something in common with other hundred schools. Take geography as an example, maps are of great use to strategists, and human geography is quite beneficial to Confucianism''s governance of the world. Mining veins can''t be separated from Mohist ink. If you don''t cooperate with other hundred schools, I''m afraid the geography will stop here."


    Li Tai''s face suddenly changed. I''m afraid, as Merton predicted, if the geographical pulse was in the era of the first hundred schools of thought, I''m afraid it would really stagnate for thousands of years like other hundred schools of thought.


    "Take Mohism as an example. The foundation of Mohism''s development is the progress of mathematics. If there is no mathematics to calculate the parabola, I''m afraid we can''t build the Weishui bridge at all." Merton told himself.


    Zu Mingjun suddenly showed a trace of pride when he heard the speech.


    "If the Mohist one vein wants to achieve higher results, it is even more inseparable from the Taoist external pill one vein alchemy. The Taoist external pill one vein can refine more alchemy methods and smelting secrets for the Mohist, so that the mineral veins found in the geographical one vein can be cast into useful materials for the Tang Dynasty."


    Taoist priest Changsheng was not surprised by honor or disgrace and smiled. Only a pinch of beard pulled down revealed his inner excitement.


    "Doctors need farmers to provide them with medicinal materials and Mohists to make medicine,......"


    Merton listed the connections of 100 schools one by one. Li Shimin was surprised to find that almost all 100 schools would be more or less involved with other 100 schools.


    "From the moment of the birth of the hundred schools of thought, it has been doomed to today''s pattern. Some of them study human society and understand human ethics and interpersonal relationships, such as Confucianism, historians, Legalists, novelists, masters, miscellaneous artists, strategists, strategists, and so on. Some of them study the truth behind everything in the world, which is referred to as the school of physics for short, such as Mohism, medicine, and Taoism Outside the home, there is a pulse of Dan, a pulse of mathematics, and so on; of course, there are Taoism and yin-yang schools that are detached from the outside. However, the mainstream is these two schools, the humanistic school that studies people and the physical school that studies everything. "


    Merton''s outspoken uncovers the essence of various schools of thought, which makes the debate between Confucianism and Mohism clear. Suddenly, the atmosphere of the whole Tai Chi hall is very delicate


    "A thousand years ago, the contention of a hundred schools of thought was a struggle of one family, and the struggle between Confucianism and Mohism was the most intense. After a thousand years, it was still a struggle between Confucianism and Mohism in name, but in fact it was a struggle between literature and science. This was the second stage of the contention of a hundred schools of thought, which was the fate of a hundred schools of thought and the fate of Confucianism and Mohism. Otherwise, the learning of a hundred schools of thought would not advance in a thousand years, and so would the development of China." Merton said solemnly.


    Li Shimin suddenly took a cold breath and remembered that after the unification of the Qin Dynasty, it seemed that it had been changing dynasties continuously, but in fact it had not made much progress. The second hundred schools of thought contend for nearly a decade, and the development attention of the Tang Dynasty was comparable to the progress of hundreds of years.


    "Now is the current situation of a hundred schools of thought contending. Please judge your majesty." Merton made all the questions public and directly showdown with Li Shimin.


    "According to the meaning of offering wine to Mo, the dispute between Confucianism and Mo is not enough." Li Shimin said angrily.


    "Wei Chen dare not." Merton bowed his head. In fact, he was very firm. There was no contention among a hundred schools of thought. How to revive the Mohist school? Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were originally equal to the four people. Now workers have become cheap, doctors have become inferior, and how to change their status without contention among a hundred schools of thought.


    Li Shimin suddenly had a toothache. If he forcibly ordered to stop the contention of a hundred schools of thought, the rapid development of the Tang Dynasty would also stagnate, which Li Shimin could not accept.


    However, if he did not interfere with the contention of a hundred schools of thought, now the Tang Dynasty only respects Confucianism. Once the contention of a hundred schools of thought reaches the most intense time, contradictions will surely break out and cause great turbulence.


    "In fact, there is also a third way, that is, to directly transition to the third stage of a hundred schools of thought." Merton suddenly said again.


    "Will there be a third stage in the contention of a hundred schools of thought?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Yes, the third stage of the contention of a hundred schools of thought is the unification of a hundred schools of thought. All students should also study the theories of a hundred schools of thought, choose the theories they are proficient in, and promote the development of a hundred schools of thought with countless elite talents. Of course, at that time, when a hundred schools of thought died, there will be no more theories of a hundred schools of thought, only a hundred schools of thought." Merton said solemnly.


    "In the third stage, hundreds of families come together!"


    Suddenly, all the people of 100 families couldn''t help taking a breath. As soon as they were born, they were destined to belong to which 100 families. Everyone regarded their own 100 families as the greatest glory and shoulder the responsibility of prospering their own 100 families. However, they never thought that one day, the 100 families would disappear.


    "Of course, there is no dispute among hundreds of schools, only a hundred schools of learning. Of course, I''m afraid Confucianism and mathematics will be the main schools at that time. Even Mohism just depends on mathematics." Merton spread his hands.


    Zu Mingjun was stunned. He didn''t expect that the Mohist school would push out a pulse of mathematics to block thunder, let alone that the Mohist school would take such a fancy to mathematics.


    "Everything has three stages of development and extinction. This is the view of Mohist contradiction theory and the speech of Mohist sacrifice!" Kong Yingda sneered.


    "The cathode generates Yang, the anode generates Yin, and the hundred schools die when they are most powerful. It is also the rebirth of the hundred schools, which is in line with the Taiji eight trigrams and the ink offering wine." Li Chunfeng Ji first said.


    When Kong Ying arrived at Dayton, he was silent. He was the spokesman of Confucianism and the leader of the Kong family. With his wisdom, he naturally knew that what Merton said was true. This was the last destiny of the 100 families and the way for the future of the 100 families. However, he was unwilling to accept the fact that Confucianism would die out in the end and would share the current situation of the world with other 100 families.


    The other hundred schools are delighted one after another. Nowadays, the elites of the Tang Dynasty are dominated by Confucianism. It is extremely difficult for the other hundred schools to obtain talents. If they can cultivate one hundred schools at the same time, the other hundred schools will no longer have to worry about talents.


    When Li Shimin looked at the Confucian attitude, he immediately understood more than half of it. At that time, he shouted, "the unification of a hundred schools of thought is just to encourage the seedlings. I think the contention of a hundred schools of thought should not be too hasty. The dispute between arts and Sciences is only an academic dispute and should not cause social unrest. Otherwise, I will punish them severely."


    "Officials and others understand!" hundreds of people bowed their heads and agreed. The so-called hundred family dispute can only develop by relying on secular imperial power. Even Confucianism can only bow down to be a minister, and Li Shimin refused to unify the hundred families, which makes Confucianism feel a lot better.


    So far, the contention of a hundred schools of thought has officially entered the second stage - the struggle between arts and science.

 Chapter 1317

    The struggle between art and science!


    No one expected that the grand ceremony of the founding of the school of thought, which was geographically linked, had become a turning point in the contention of a hundred schools of thought. When the concept of the dispute between literature and science spread, even the Confucians had to admit that the summary of Mohist school was very in place.


    There are natural differences between Confucianism and Mohism. One pursues sensibility, the other pursues rationality, one researcher and one research object, and has made great achievements in their respective fields, while the other hundred schools are the same, which can be divided into two schools of Arts and science.


    "No wonder twice a hundred schools of thought contend, led by Confucianism and Mohism. This is not a coincidence, but fate."


    "The Mohist school lost last time. This time, it became smart and even attracted the school of physics. This time, the Mohist school can not beat Confucianism and can also occupy a place among the hundred schools."


    "If you don''t think about victory, you should think about defeat first. Arts and science are natural opposites and indispensable. In my opinion, this time a hundred schools of thought contend, it is doomed that Mohism and Confucianism divide the world equally. No, it is arts and science that divide the world equally."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    People in Chang''an City talked and speculated about the situation of this hundred schools of thought. Although Confucianism still occupies an absolute advantage, most people speculated that the second hundred schools of thought, the pattern of exclusive respect for Confucianism will no longer exist, and even the pattern of equal distribution between the two schools of Arts and science. Of course, the leading hundred of these two schools are destined to be Confucianism and Mohism.


    "It''s impossible. Confucianism can''t fail. Mohism is just a clever technique. How can it compare with the way of saints." more Confucian scholars are unwilling to accept the result and shout one after another.


    "Qiqiao Yinji? Look at your home and around you. There is no trace of Mohist ink skills. Without Mohist ink skills, our Tang Dynasty will immediately return to the era of eating and drinking blood. Without Mohist ink skills, you can even eat and wear. Qiqiao Yinji is a skill in the Jianghu, and Mohist ink skills are an important weapon of the country." the people who support Mohism retorted.


    A group of Confucian scholars were speechless. They used to denounce craftsmen for their ingenious and obscene skills and looked down on craftsmen with a high attitude. However, after the rise of Mohism, this statement can no longer stand. Every ink technology exhibition shows a number of amazing ink technologies, and each ink technology makes the life of the people of the Tang Dynasty further.


    Weishui bridge, Qianjin arm, iron and steel, brick road, four-wheel carriage, ink suit, down jacket,....... There are hundreds of plans of superior countries. From the perspective of people''s livelihood, there is the shadow of Mohism. Unknowingly, Mohism has been integrated into the Tang Dynasty, which is also the reason why Mohism dares to have a showdown with Confucianism.


    In the Confucius house, the Confucianists gathered together to analyze the current situation of a hundred schools of thought, but finally found that Mohism had indeed become a climate.


    "The Mohist school is too arrogant! With the strength of Confucianism, if we try our best to suppress the Mohist school, we will destroy the Mohist school forever." Yu Zhining snorted coldly.


    Kong Yingda shook his head and said, "no, today''s Mohism is very important to the Tang military. The Xiangfu family has built bridges everywhere. If the Confucianism is too hasty, I''m afraid it can''t even pass the level of his majesty. Moreover, if you want to force the Mohism, don''t forget the lesson of Koguryo''s unique respect for Mohism."


    Not to mention that the court cannot leave Mohism, even if the court is determined to stand on the side of Confucianism to deal with Mohism, the court can not afford to force Mohism away. Although Mohism promises to stay in the Tang Dynasty, it is not the reason for your wanton persecution.


    "What should I do? Mohist''s theory of contradiction is about to be completed. Who else can Confucianism compete with it!" Yu Zhining was angry and defeated.


    "On contradiction!" the Confucianists were embarrassed when they heard the news. With their knowledge, they naturally understood how amazing the Mohist theory of contradiction was. Once the theory of contradiction was completed, it marked the perfection of the Mohist Debate. So far, the Mohist Debate and Mohist skills not only recovered the grand occasion of the first hundred schools of thought contend, but also surpassed it.


    "Fortunately, the Mohists kept their promises and have given up their political ideas." Kong huisuo let go.


    Everyone nodded silently. Mohist school is still honest and has not set foot in politics. It should have given up Mohist political proposition.


    "That''s the Mohist''s understanding. The Mohist''s political ideas have long been defeated by Confucianism. I''m afraid the Mohists are also afraid of humiliating themselves." Yu Zhining sneered.


    "Don''t trust the promise of Mohism. When the influence of Mohism increases day by day, the concept of Mohism will immediately affect the world. Maybe at that time, a person''s promise is just a piece of white paper." Kong Yingda said emphatically. When the strength of Mohism reaches the extreme, it will certainly pursue political opinions, which can not be decided by Mohism alone.


    "At present, we must curb Mohism. Since a hundred schools of thought contend, there is no need to say that Confucianism cannot compete! In the future, all Confucian industries must be cut off from Mohism." Yu Zhining cut the nail and cut the railway.


    The Confucianists nodded. Even killing eight thousand enemies and losing one thousand will bring down the Mohist school as much as possible.


    "Maybe you don''t have to lose a thousand. The Mohists are not without old enemies, and the good workers are not the only Mohists." Kong Yingda said coldly.


    "Public loser!" Kong huisuo blurted out.


    "The public loser is not the climate. He has never had the upper hand in fighting with the Mohist School for many years." Yu Zhining frowned. In his opinion, although the public loser has a little strength, it is still too different from the famous Mohist school, and it can''t be a threat at all.


    "If it doesn''t become a climate, we should give strong support. All the orders cut off from the Mohists should be handed over to the public losers. After all, the public losers are one of the hundreds of scholars. They used to be famous for a while and fight with the Mohists. Now we can only say that the Mohists are too powerful. With the help of Confucianism, Xiangxin industry will certainly not make the Mohists beautiful." Kong Yingda analyzed, It''s not that the public losers are not in good spirits, but that the Mohists are too rebellious. Even the Confucianists have not benefited from the Mohists, let alone the other hundred.


    Although Confucianists also don''t look up to public losers, the best way to prevent Mohism from going further is to support public losers to divide Mohism''s position in the industrial world.


    "Second, the Mohists still hold many secret skills to search for the wealth of the people. In my opinion, we can''t let the Mohists control these secret skills any more. We must encourage folk workshops to force out the Mohist secret skills. In this way, we can cut off the wealth of the Mohists." Yu Zhining said fiercely.


    "This method is feasible!" Kong Yingda nodded. The Mohist school acts for the benefit of temptation. If it cuts off the Mohist''s financial resources, it will greatly delay the steps of Mohist revival.


    "Third, we must cut off the influence of Mohism in the other hundred schools, among which the penetration of doctors into Mohism is the most serious. It is mo Wu, the son of Mohism, who takes over the position of doctor sun. I believe there must be many doctors who are not satisfied, which has a lot of room for operation." Yu Zhining said proudly, let alone the struggle among the hundreds, there will also be a struggle within the hundreds, He didn''t believe that doctors would be monolithic.


    "Great kindness!" Kong Yingda nodded in agreement.


    Kong huisuo, who has been listening, couldn''t help sighing. I''m afraid that after this, Confucianism and Mohism will have an all-round friendship, and he and Mohist Zi will have no chance to be brothers again.

 Chapter 1318

    With the comprehensive friendship between Confucianism and Mohism, the atmosphere of the whole Tang Dynasty has quietly changed.


    Today, Confucianism is still in an exclusive position, and social resources and rights are almost in the hands of Confucianism. As soon as Confucianism stated its position, many industries immediately avoided Confucianism like snakes and scorpions, and transferred orders to public losers under the hint of Confucianism.


    "Great joy, master! I''m going to be very happy!" the public transport ship was overjoyed after getting so many orders.


    "When fortune comes, misfortune comes, and fortune comes, public losers are sandwiched between Confucianism and Mohism. Why should they be happy." after so many orders out of thin air, public losers are not happy but worried.


    Public loser Hao nodded. All along, although public losers are subordinate to Mohism, they have enjoyed a healthy life under the tide of industrial rise led by Mohism''s revival. However, if they suddenly want to participate in the dispute between Confucianism and Mohism, it is really people sitting at home and disaster comes from heaven.


    "Do we still take these orders?" asked the public transport ship uneasily.


    Gongshu Hong gritted his teeth and said, "why not? This is a once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity for our Gongshu family. How can we miss the opportunity."


    For thousands of years, not only Mohism has been silent for thousands of years, but also public losers. Public losers naturally want to revive the brilliance of their ancestors.


    "That''s great. With these orders, one fades and the other fades. The public loser will surely defeat the Mohist school completely and have no place to turn over." the public loser was excited.


    "Short-sighted! Confucianism doesn''t like Mohism. Do they like public losers? Once Mohism is completely silent, the next hundred Confucians will be our public losers." public loser Hong Leng snorted.


    "My father meant to let the Mohist school be the target and keep the Mohist school to deal with Confucianism, while my public loser took advantage of it." public loser Hao suddenly said.


    Gongshu Hong nodded and said, "although Mohism and Gongshu do not deal with each other, there is no doubt that the existence of Mohism is beneficial not only to our Gongshu family, but also to the whole industry. Mohism is committed to industrial rejuvenation, which is the same goal as Gongshu family."


    Gongshu Hao nodded. The reason why Gongshu family has such a situation is also stained with the light of the revival of Mohism.


    Gongshu Hong continued: "not to mention that the Mohist school didn''t make trouble when Gongshu family came to Beijing. Even if Gongshu family defeated Mohist school, can you be confident that you can stop Confucianism?"


    "Confucianism?" the public loser suddenly felt powerless. Looking at the whole hundred schools, the Mohist school can break its wrists with the Confucianism. I''m afraid the other hundred schools are not the enemy of the unity of Confucianism. If the means of Confucianism to deal with the Mohist school are used on the public losers, I''m afraid the public losers can''t last three months.


    "Father''s intention is to help the Mohists secretly?" Gong Shuhao whispered.


    Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "no, it''s the greatest respect for Mohism to go all out to compete positively with Mohism, but my Gongshu family should have the pride of a hundred families and win decency."


    When the public loser haodun knew that if the public loser wanted to win the fair, he could also release water appropriately. In this way, the longer the fight between Mohism and Confucianism, the public loser would get more benefits.


    Soon, with Confucian orders, the public losers expanded rapidly and immediately increased greatly. For the first time, they were the same as Mojia village in terms of volume.


    However, the public losers were very proud and did not steal Mohist secrets, dig Mohist village talents and pry Mohist village orders like other workshops.


    Although Confucianism is dissatisfied with the public loser''s behavior, it can do nothing. After all, the public loser is the only one that can threaten the existence of Mohism. As long as it can suppress Mohism, Confucianism can only turn a blind eye.


    "How serious is the situation!" in the Mo mansion, the Mohists gathered together, and Merton''s face was frozen.


    Xu Jie said with a wry smile: "now the Mojia village has lost half of the orders, most of which have been obtained by the public losers, and some have been equally distributed by other workshops. Confucianism would rather spend money on inferior products than call the orders to the Mojia."


    "If you hurt the enemy by one thousand, you will lose eight hundred." Tian Mou, chief editor of the Confucian journal, frowned. He saw the evil intention of Confucianism at a glance.


    Merton hummed coldly: "it''s impossible for Confucianism to use the same trick twice. If the order goes on, we can use the super workshop secretly prepared by Mojia village, and the products of Mojia village will be mainly self-supporting in the future."


    Since being besieged by Confucianism, the Mohist school has long been vigilant and began to secretly layout, build a super workshop and form its own production workshop into a perfect closed loop to break the blockade of Confucianism.


    Tian Mou nodded and said, "this is not the most deadly, the real fatal is this!"


    Tian Mou said and handed the Confucian journal in his hand to Merton. The headline on the front page of the Confucian journal read:


    "Seize the wealth of the world and enrich a village!"


    I saw that Confucian journals criticized Mohism throughout the article. Regardless of the identity of all schools of thought, they used Mohist ink technology to plunder the fat and cream of the people in the world. Finally, only Mohist village benefited and the people all over the world suffered.


    "Once this publication is published in the world, it will certainly cause an uproar. Once it causes the people all over the world to hate Mohism, the revival of Mohism will be difficult," Tian said.


    Merton looked at the Confucian journal in his hand and frowned. The move of Confucianism hit the weakness of Mohism. First, it supported the public losers to compete with Mohism, and then encouraged the people to oppose Mohism, so as to minimize the prestige of Mohism. For a long time, Mohism may be completely in trouble and gradually sink.


    "Don''t suffer from oligopoly, but from inequality. It''s normal for others to be jealous of Mojia village, which is the richest in the world. This time, Confucianism has grasped the weakness of human nature." Merton sighed.


    Tian Mou nodded. Not to mention ordinary people, even Xiangfu was envious of Mojia village. This phenomenon is normal.


    "The wealth of the Mohist village is the hard work of the Mohists, but there is no illegal act." Mo San said discontentedly.


    Tian Mou shook his head and said, "if you are an ordinary person, no matter how much wealth you earn, there is no problem. However, Mohism is a hundred schools of thought. In addition to self-interest, you should also have the belief that you can help the world. From this point of view, Confucianism does not blame Mohism."


    Merton nodded and said, "what Tian Lao said is right. All the time, the Mohists abide by the Mohist village and are careful to avoid direct conflict with Confucianism. Now it seems that Mo is too conservative."


    Merton took a deep breath. Since Confucianism had hit the door, it was impossible for the Mohists to avoid war.


    "Please also write an article on behalf of Tian laodai to criticize the Confucian theory of not suffering from oligopoly but suffering from inequality. Not suffering from oligopoly but suffering from inequality is not to let everyone suffer and starve together. The idea of Mohism is to let some hard-working people get rich first, get rich first and drive them to get rich later, and finally get rich together. Mohism is willing to help all hard-working people embark on the road of prosperity."


    "Get rich first, get rich later!" Tian Mou''s eyes lit up and was immediately excited. For a long time, Confucianism has occupied the moral commanding height without suffering from oligopoly and inequality. Now Mohism finally has an idea to compete with it.

 Chapter 1319

    "Seize the wealth of the world and enrich a village!"


    When the Confucian journal was published, the whole world was in an uproar. The Mohist village was the richest in the world, and everyone in the Tang Dynasty envied it. However, after being provoked by the Confucian journal, the people all over the world immediately felt that the wealth made by the Mohists was theirs, but the Mohists used the wealth they created to feed the Mohist village without taking them into account.


    Although the Tang Dynasty is becoming stronger and stronger, ordinary people are still poor. Compared with the Mojia village, the first village in the world, it can be described as a heaven and a hell. Not to mention ordinary people, even the people in Chang''an City envy Mojia village!


    Qiu Fu!


    No matter in any era, let alone under the influence of the Confucian concept of not suffering from oligopoly but suffering from inequality, the people of the Tang Dynasty immediately attributed their suffering to the Mohist school. For a moment, the reputation of the Mohist School declined sharply, the goods of the Mohist school were boycotted one after another, and there were even many acts of hostility to the Mohist school.


    In particular, some workshops that use Mohist patents no longer pay Mohist money for this reason. At the same time, a large number of workshops began to steal Mohist ink technology, and they were unscrupulous.


    "Hahaha! The Confucius family really made an extraordinary move. They began to criticize the Mohist School in terms of righteousness. This time, the Mohist school was doomed." in the Confucian journal, Wei Si''an laughed loudly. He hated that the Mohist school had cut off his career. Originally, he had the opportunity to become a son-in-law. Finally, because the Mohist family could only live in the Confucian journal, now he relies on the Confucian journal to ruin the Mohist school.


    "Confucius offered wine wisely. If the Mohist school wants to prosper, it must need financial support. However, if the Mohist school has money, it will be hated by the people all over the world. Such a contradiction, I see how the Mohist family can resolve it." editor in chief Ma said proudly.


    "Boss, it''s not good. The ink magazine has been published!" suddenly an editor came in a hurry.


    "The ink magazine has been published, so what? I don''t believe that the Mohists can turn the sky." Wei Si''an snorted coldly, stretched out his hand to take a look at an ink magazine, and was stunned there.


    "Getting rich first drives getting rich later!"


    Editor in chief Ma also took over an ink magazine. He couldn''t help but look at it again. No one thought that the Mohists had launched a theory that could compete without being few and suffering from inequality.


    Ink magazines directly compare the living standards of Chang''an people since the revival of Mohism. Ten years ago, the ordinary labor money in Chang''an city was about 100 Wen a month, but now Chang''an city is generally 300 Wen a month, and some can even reach 500 Wen or 1000 Wen. This price is far higher than that in other places in the Tang Dynasty, including Luoyang.


    The Confucian journal even asked whether the people all over the world would like to live 100 Wen a month, 300 Wen a month, or even more wages in the future. It even directly criticized that Confucianism had not led the people all over the world to the road of prosperity for thousands of years.


    Editor in chief Ma and Weisi settled in silence. Although Confucianism claimed that there was no shortage but inequality, which won the hearts of the people, to be fair, no one likes to live a poor life. Although the concept of Mohism is uneven between the rich and the poor, even the minimum standard is higher than Confucianism, let alone the future children will be better.


    After the publication of the ink magazine, the people in Chang''an were in an uproar and talked about it one after another.


    "Neither oligopoly nor inequality!"


    "Getting rich first drives getting rich later!"


    These two ideas collide with each other in Chang''an city. Chang''an city is the place where the gap between the rich and the poor is the largest. However, this gap is only relative. Compared with other places, Chang''an city''s life is much better,


    If we say that Mohist revival benefits the most from Mohist village, the people of Chang''an city are the second largest beneficiaries of Mohist revival. Relying on the advantage of being close to Mohist village, Chang''an City has developed rapidly in recent years. Whenever advanced Mohist products are born, Chang''an city can always benefit first. Merchants in Chang''an city seize the first opportunity and make a lot of profits.


    Although Luoyang City keeps catching up, Luoyang city relies on convenient transportation to gather wealth from all directions, while Chang''an city relies more on Mohist ink technology, so it can be in a stalemate with Luoyang, otherwise it would have been overtaken by Luoyang.


    The people in Chang''an city are not blind, and Chang''an City has a strong business atmosphere. They naturally tend to the concept of getting rich first and driving the later. Moreover, Mohist village does not make empty statements. In the villages around Chang''an City, many people benefit greatly from Mohism.


    For a while, although the Confucian concept of not suffering from oligopoly but suffering from inequality prevailed throughout the Tang Dynasty, the concept of getting rich first and driving the rich later was also spreading. Even in Chang''an City, the concept of Mohist getting rich first and driving the rich later was better than Mohist concept of not suffering from oligopoly but suffering from inequality.


    "What a Mohist, he openly criticized Confucianism for its vegetarian diet for thousands of years and failed to lead the people to live a good life." in the Confucius house, Kong Yingda looked at the contents of the Mohist magazine and puffed his beard and stared angrily. In his heart, the supreme Confucianism became a sinner hindering the prosperity of the world in the mouth of Mohist.


    "The Mohist school is full of nonsense. In all dynasties, there was no prosperous era and no resurgence. These are not the credit of my Confucianism for governing the world." Yu Zhining snorted coldly.


    Kong huisuo can''t help sighing. The past dynasties are indeed the time of resurgence and prosperity. However, each dynasty is a reincarnation and returns to the days of poverty and emptiness. According to this understanding, what Mohist Zi criticized is not wrong, but he just wants to think about this idea in his heart. After all, he is still a child of Confucius and must safeguard the interests of Confucianism.


    Kong Yingda sneered: "the success of the Mohist Debate saved the Mohist son from a disaster, but he should not be happy for too long. This remark is right in my plan. The Mohist son doesn''t mean to get rich first and drive the rich later, so he encourages the workshops all over the world and requires the Mohist school to open its ink skills."


    "What Kong Jijiu said is very true. The Mohist school didn''t say that he should get rich first and drive the rich later, so let him take it well." Yu Zhining sneered. As long as the Mohist School loses the advantage of ink technology, the Mohist school is not afraid at all.


    "There are also doctors who need to speed up, and the alliance between doctors and Mohism must be disintegrated." Kong Yingda thought.


    Yu Zhining confidently said: "Confucius offered wine at ease. Not to mention that Mo Wu was not a doctor, he said that he was young and in a high position. There had long been dissatisfaction from highly respected doctors. In addition, there was no harmony within the doctors. Many doctors believed in the doctor''s five element theory. Mo Wu and doctor Hua advocated Mo medicine. There had long been a quarrel. The Taiyi order has assured Xu that Mo Wu can be expelled from the doctor in a few days."


    Kong Yingda sneered: "OK! Doctors have been attached to Confucianism for thousands of years. How can they turn to Mohism in just ten years? Once doctors return to Mohism, there is only one vein of Taoist external elixir. I see how Mohism can compete with Confucianism in terms of literature and science."


    As long as we can win over the doctors, we will break the arm of Mohism and increase the strength of Confucianism.


    "Kong offered wine and planned strategies. This time, Yu believed that he could certainly surpass Mohism." Yu Zhining complimented.


    Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda looked at each other with a smile. They couldn''t help feeling complacent. Although Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda had different political views, they were consistent in dealing with Mohism.

 Chapter 1320

    "Doctor Mo, please save my son!"


    In Mo hospital, an old woman pleaded in front of Mo Wu that she had only one precious son,


    Mo Wu quickly helped the old woman up and said, "madam, don''t worry. As a doctor, we will try our best to treat him. However, your son''s condition is special and needs consultation."


    "Thank you, doctor Mo!" the old woman quickly thanked.


    Merton waved his hand and entered a consultation room. There were many doctors waiting. Merton five handed over the patient''s case to a number of doctors.


    The doctors looked at the case in their hands and frowned. This case is too difficult, and a variety of diseases are intertwined, which is very difficult to treat.


    "From my point of view, this disease can only be recuperated slowly." an old Chinese medicine frowned. Although Chinese medicine has a slow effect, it is safe and most safe.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "slowly recuperate, which means that the patient is resigned to his fate! The bounden duty of our doctors is to save the dead and heal the wounded. We can''t sit back and wait for the patient to die. If the patient is operated on immediately, Mo believes there will be hope of recovery."


    "Doctor Mo is sure that he can be cured!" the old Chinese doctor snorted coldly.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "I''m afraid it''s only 30% sure, but if you don''t treat it in time, I''m afraid the patient will die soon."


    Mexican medical treatment is fast but urgent, but due to limited conditions, it is not fully grasped, and the risk is great.


    "In my opinion, since I''m not sure about the cure, don''t treat it to avoid complications." the old Chinese medicine said solemnly.


    Mo Wu frowned, shook his head and said, "how can this be? If there is a glimmer of hope, we should try our best to treat it. Even if this failure, we can accumulate experience for future treatment. I believe we can overcome this disease one day."


    "Doctor Mo is standing on the position of doctors, but the patients are only willing to accept the medicine to cure the disease, and they are not willing to bear the result of failure at all, because once they fail, they lose their lives." the old Chinese medicine saw through the human accident and said in a bleak tone.


    "Therefore, Mo will tell the whole truth, sign the contract in advance, and whether to have surgery depends on their own decision." Mo Wu said.


    The old Chinese medicine said bitterly: "it''s useless. Not everyone knows the great cause and understands the truth. The grief of the death of their relatives and the situation of empty money and people can easily break people''s reason. At that time, our doctors will be the only outlet."


    After the words of the old Chinese medicine, others were silent. In this era, the status of doctors is very low. Let alone ordinary people take doctors as a vent. If the emperor''s life is not cured, there is even the risk of beheading.


    "So we doctors are afraid of hands and feet, so we are complacent. In the long run, the doctors'' medical skills will not improve any more." Mo Wu said angrily.


    "This is the sorrow of doctors. I even want to abolish the hospitalization system. In my opinion, it is just a powder keg. One careless will ruin the reputation of doctors." the old Chinese medicine was worried that he had seen too much darkness in his life, so he didn''t dare to gamble at all.


    "You dare not, Mo Wu dares! As long as we can make progress for doctors and have a glimmer of hope to treat patients, Mo Wu will not give up." Mo Wu said proudly.


    Pushing open the door of the consultation room, Mo Wu went out and explained the risks to the patients and their families in person. Finally, the patients and their families agreed to treatment.


    Looking at the door of the operating room closed heavily, the old Chinese medicine couldn''t help sighing. Since the cooperation between doctors and Mohists, doctors have gradually split into two factions. One is traditional doctors. They are cautious, not seeking reactive power, but seeking no fault and conservative treatment; One is the emerging ink doctors. They are bold. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, they give up. They even think that even if they fail this time, they will succeed next time, and they can conquer a disease one day.


    "Who doesn''t want to cure the disease, but even if you have excellent medical skills, you can''t cure the evil of human nature." the old Chinese medicine shook his head and sighed.


    After several hours of hard work, the door of the operating room finally opened.


    "Doctor Mo!" the old woman who had been outside the operation history immediately came forward nervously.


    "Mo Wu is lucky to live up to his fate!" Mo Wu said solemnly.


    The old woman suddenly breathed out and quickly shouted God''s blessing.


    Mo Wu saw the old woman''s ecstatic expression and couldn''t help smiling. Seeing the expression of the patient''s family was the reason why he didn''t hesitate to take risks. He didn''t know what many doctors were worried about, but he had to do it, not only for the doctors, but also for the patients.


    "Everybody! Quacks are hurting people! Quacks are hurting people!"


    Suddenly, a sharp voice broke the harmonious atmosphere and saw a rough man dressed in hemp and filial piety wantonly in the hall.


    "What''s the matter?" Mo Wu frowned.


    Before the doctor who maintained order answered, the rough man grabbed Mo Wu and said in a high voice, "it''s him. This quack killed my father."


    "You mean yesterday''s old man, as the doctor said long ago, he is already dying, but you don''t want to spend money and don''t want to have an operation immediately. The doctor can only let you be hospitalized for observation first." Mo Wu frowned.


    "The old man had a sudden illness this morning and didn''t rescue him." the doctor on the side explained the situation to Mo Wu.


    Many old Chinese doctors can''t help sighing. This is why they oppose the hospitalization system. There are too many unexpected diseases, which can easily lead to doctor-patient disputes. Usually, doctors are at a disadvantage.


    "Nonsense, my father was able to walk well yesterday, but he died today. It must be your hospital''s responsibility to die in Mo hospital. It''s your hospital''s responsibility. You have to compensate me. I don''t want more. I don''t want a hundred yuan for burial fees!" the rough man tangled up and told his purpose.


    "A hundred passes!" many doctors moved in their hearts. This money is nothing to the Mexican hospital and can keep the reputation of the Mexican hospital.


    Mo Wu sneered: "don''t say it''s a hundred passes, even there''s no money. This wind can''t last long. This example can''t be opened. If everyone dies in Mo hospital, they will come to Mo hospital for money. In the long run, can Mo hospital continue?"


    "Aren''t you afraid of damaging the reputation of your miracle doctor?" the rough man threatened loudly. He had already inquired about it. The whole Mexican hospital is famous. For famous people, they usually cherish their feathers and spend money to eliminate disasters.


    "Medicine can''t kill people. The doctor can do his best." Mo Wu said faintly and turned away without hesitation.


    However, the rough man didn''t meet the requirements and intensified his efforts. He insisted that Mo Wu killed his father. He opened a mourning hall directly at the gate of Mo hospital, spent money, and even surrounded Mo Wu. However, this is not over. A report published this event in the Confucian journal, which caused a sensation in the whole Tang Dynasty and immediately pushed the doctors and Mo Wu to the forefront of the wave.

 Chapter 1321

    "What kind of treatment can save people? In my opinion, it''s just like murder for money! You don''t have to see a minor illness, but you can''t see a serious illness."


    "The doctor, who claims to be a pot bearer for the world, used his medical skills to restrain his money. He saw a minor illness in xiamo hospital and spent a hundred Wen."


    People in the world tend to believe in the weak. In their view, a weak patient, a doctor who controls people''s life and death, which is stronger or weaker has been decided at a glance.


    Under the biased reports of Confucian journals, people all over the world only remember the expensive money they spent in Mexican hospitals, and completely forget that doctors have cured their diseases and saved their lives.


    In the Mexican hospital, many doctors laughed bitterly. What they were most worried about finally happened, and the doctor-patient contradiction finally broke out.


    Almost elderly doctors have had this nightmare experience. They were blackmailed and threatened, and the reputation of the miracle doctor was destroyed in a short time. However, they originally thought that the Mexican hospital had been established, and many doctors could work together to avoid this situation and save people wholeheartedly, but they didn''t expect the tragedy to happen again.


    Rough Han took the lead in setting up a mourning hall outside the Mexican hospital, cursed loudly and surrounded the Mexican hospital, but the Mexican hospital had nothing to do.


    Even the rough Han''s behavior began to affect many sick people and began to question the Mexican hospital.


    "I''m just a little sick. You can''t cure it. What kind of doctor do you want to be?"


    "You can''t guarantee the success of the operation. What hospital do you open?"


    "You say a good person, how can he die when he is sent to the hospital?"


    "You have to sign a contract to see a doctor. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with you. You have to take the benefits."


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Originally, the mood of patients and their families was unstable. Provoked by the rough Han, they began to blame the Mexican hospital. There were many people watching, and the doctor''s storm became more and more serious.


    "The imperial medical order is coming!"


    Suddenly a voice came and saw the imperial doctor''s order in official clothes get out of the carriage and appear in front of the Mo hospital.


    "Doctor Tai! You have to decide for the villain!" the rough man cried when he saw the doctor''s order coming.


    The imperial doctor ordered to help the rough man, looked around and said in a righteous way: "don''t worry. If it''s the responsibility of Mo hospital, I will naturally preside over justice. However, if you mess around and damage the reputation of the doctor, don''t blame me for treating you for making trouble."


    The rough man turned his eyes and thought from the bottom of his heart that if he found out the responsibility of Mo hospital, he could compensate a lot of money, and the crime of making trouble at the bank was just a few boards. The risk was still worth it.


    "The grass people beg your excellency to investigate thoroughly!" the rough man bowed down in the tunnel.


    The imperial doctor ordered Leng hum and walked into the Mo hospital. Although he got the reason to intervene in the Mo hospital, he still despised the naughty man. The doctors hated this kind of man most. He was courteous and reckless.


    "Imperial doctor orders Your Excellency!"


    When the imperial doctor ordered a sudden visit, Mo Wu led the doctors to meet him.


    "I came here today to investigate the storm in the Mexican hospital. It''s not easy for doctors to get the good situation now. There can''t be any mistakes. This matter must be handled properly."


    The old Chinese doctor on one side quickly handed over a document and said: "the imperial doctor reassures adults that doctors have always adhered to medical training, and doctor Mo Wu is more conscientious. Although the patient died in the Mo hospital, neither doctor Mo Wu nor the Mo hospital has done their duty, which is useless."


    The imperial doctor ordered to look down at the data, which clearly recorded the whole process of the incident. From the perspective of handling, the medical incident was really wrong.


    "Although doctor Mo Wu is not responsible for this, after all, the patient died in the hospital. We can understand the psychology of the family members. From my point of view, this matter takes a step back. First, doctor Mo Wu apologizes to the patient, and then the Mexican hospital pays a sum of money to the family members of the patient. How about this end?" the imperial doctor ordered.


    The old Chinese medicine looks like a move, spending money to eliminate disasters and pacify people. This is the common way for doctors to solve problems. It seems that this is the only way this time.


    "No, if doctors compromise this time, more people will follow suit next time, because as long as they make medical trouble, the Mexican hospital will lose money. This trend can''t last long and this example can''t be opened." Mo Wu frowned and resolutely opposed.


    As soon as Mo Wu said this, many young doctors agreed. This case is really not open, otherwise Mo hospital will never have peace.


    The imperial medical order nodded and said, "I came here today to solve this problem, that is, abolish the hospitalization system. From then on, the patient will leave by himself after treatment. As long as he doesn''t die in the Mexican hospital, the Mexican hospital naturally has no responsibility!"


    Many old Chinese doctors agree that this is the method used by doctors for thousands of years, so as to get rid of responsibility and protect doctors as much as possible.


    Mo Wu''s face changed and said, "no, if the patient has an operation, he can''t walk at all. If there is no hospitalization system, the cure rate of doctors can''t be guaranteed?"


    The imperial doctor shook his head and said, "as a doctor, who doesn''t want to hang a pot to save the world and cure the disease, but you have saved 999 people. Even if one person dies in front of you, he may be ruined. This is the sadness of our doctors. Only this method can we treat more patients with useful bodies."


    Merton retorted: "it''s even more irresponsible to patients. We were able to treat more people, but we can only watch them die. This is against medical ethics."


    "It''s not the fault of doctors! It''s the fault of the world!" the imperial doctor ordered Shen Zhong.


    Suddenly, the whole Mexican hospital was silent, and all the doctors were like pressing a mountain on their heads, making them out of breath.


    "There is something wrong with this world! Then cure him! But we are doctors. If we can''t even bear this responsibility, how can we cure people and the world? Once the hospitalization system is abolished, the emerging doctors will be hit hard. If we return to the previous dead era, we will completely fall amid the contention of a hundred schools of thought. Doctors have declined for thousands of years and missed this time If a hundred schools of thought contend, doctors will miss the next millennium, "Mo Wu said firmly.


    Doctors in the Mexican hospital immediately shared a bitter hatred. For thousands of years, doctors have a low status. Usually a doctor opens a medicine shop and is often bullied. Now with the Mexican hospital, the status of doctors has been greatly improved. No one wants to go back to the time when they were wantonly scolded and abused.


    "It''s not easy to cure the world, and doctor Mo Wu can''t understand it. Confucianism is behind it. Otherwise, how can Confucian journals report it?" an old doctor blurted out on impulse.


    Suddenly, many doctors turned their attention to Mo Wu. Since the Mohist School put forward the concept of the dispute between arts and science, they attributed the doctors to the physical school. The doctors were retaliated by the Confucianism, not to mention that Mo Wu was born in the Mohist school. The doctors naturally attributed this gratitude and resentment to Mo Wu.


    Of course, there is the cheap self-esteem of doctors. As doctors, they are occupied by the children of Mohism. Naturally, they are dissatisfied.


    Mo Wuhuan looked around and understood everyone''s thoughts, sneering: "A hundred schools of thought contend, and doctors want to develop without offending people. It is wishful thinking. For thousands of years, Confucianism has not helped doctors at all. On the contrary, doctors have not made any progress for thousands of years, and the status of doctors has been deteriorating. Doctors have made great progress until they meet Mohist school. The combination of Mohist and medical schools benefits both sides, with two defeats."


    People were ashamed. Mohist school helped doctors a lot, but they were disgusted with Mohist school.


    The imperial medical order said: "the kindness of the Mohist school will naturally be repaid by the doctors in the future. However, the plight of the doctors is immediate. Today''s matter is not the first or the last. If Confucianism is really allowed to target the doctors, the doctors may be unable to do anything."


    As soon as the imperial doctor ordered this statement, a group of doctors nodded one after another. Among the hundreds of schools of thought, Mohism can fight Confucianism, and the other hundred schools simply don''t have the courage.


    Mo Wu raised his eyebrows and said in a cruel voice, "I know what you mean. This time, Mo Wu implicated doctors. After the incident was resolved, Mo Wu took the initiative to resign as president of Mo hospital."


    "Mo Wu asked to leave!" everyone was stunned. Although the theories of traditional Chinese medicine and Mo medicine were in conflict, and many people were in conflict with Mo Wu''s ideas, they were not at all happy to hear that Mo Wu was really leaving Mo hospital.


    Not to mention that Mo Wu''s medical books are superb. After leaving, it is the loss of Mo hospital. It is said that Mo Wu''s experience today is their tomorrow. This is the tragedy of doctors. "

 Chapter 1322

    "But before Mo Wu left, let Mo Wu do his last for the doctor." Mo Wu said in a deep voice.


    "The last force?" the imperial doctor frowned and looked at Mo Wu puzzled.


    "Mo Wu naturally has no ability to change the world, but Mo Wu has asked the young master to help the doctor." Mo Wu said proudly.


    "Mojia Zi!" the doctors could not help exclaiming. If it was others, they would not believe it, but they could not help looking forward to Mojia Zi. After all, Mojia Zi has repeatedly created miracles. Maybe Mojia Zi can really change the tragedy of doctors.


    "I have found out! Doctor Mo Wu and the Mo hospital are not responsible for your father''s death! You can leave." outside the Mo hospital, the imperial doctor ordered to drink coldly to the rough man.


    "No way, my father died in Mo hospital, and Mo Wu is duty bound." rough Han was unwilling to accept the result, and his face turned red.


    The imperial doctor looked at the rough man with disgust and said, "in order to prove his innocence, doctor Mo Wu has automatically resigned. The Mexican hospital has abolished the hospitalization system since then. Are you satisfied?"


    "Doctor Mo Wu, please resign!"


    "Abolish the hospitalization system!"


    As soon as the imperial doctor ordered this statement, everyone was in an uproar. No one expected that the final outcome would be so tragic, and doctor Mo Wu would be so strong. In order to prove his innocence, he took the initiative to resign.


    You should know that doctor Mo Wu, who is known as the king of hell, is one of the most skilled doctors in Chang''an city. Now, he even took the initiative to resign because of a vicious frame up. Doesn''t that mean that Chang''an city will lose a famous doctor in the future.


    However, this is not the most serious. It is a pity to lose a famous doctor, but there are other famous doctors in Chang''an city. What is more serious is that Mo hospital abolished the hospitalization system. The most taboo of patients is long-distance running. The hospitalization system means that a doctor has been around you until your condition is cured. However, the hospitalization system has been abolished. After the medicine is filled in the hospital, When the patient returns to his home, it''s OK to be close. If something happens, he can rush to the hospital in time. What if the patient comes all the way? Life or death can only depend on fate, which affects not one person, but the lives of countless people in the Tang Dynasty.


    Soon, the news of Mo Wu''s resignation and the doctor''s abolition of the hospitalization system spread all over Chang''an city. Chang''an city was immediately shocked. The public opinion that originally criticized the doctor on one side turned.


    "A famous doctor fell due to a vicious frame up. This is the death of a doctor." people familiar with the inside story can''t help sighing. Mo Wu''s medical skills have been confirmed by Tubo envoys, but he really saved the dying people. He has the ability to kill in the hands of the king of hell, but now the outcome is very sad.


    More than a hundred people deplore the abolition of the hospitalization system by doctors. The hospitalization system is one of the biggest innovations of doctors. It makes doctors prominent for a time and become the most dazzling existence in the contention of a hundred schools of thought. Now doctors abandon their martial arts. I''m afraid they will slowly fall behind in the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the future. It''s a pity.


    In the Confucius Mansion, Kong Yingda received the news without the slightest joy. His goal was achieved. Without Mo Wu, the cooperation between Mo and doctors will create more resentments, and the price is to destroy a thriving hundred schools.


    "Maybe one day I will die in pain at home, just because of the Confucian behavior today." Kong Yingda smiled sadly.


    But then this pity will be erased. In the future, as long as the Mohist school is defeated, the Confucianism will certainly make good compensation to the doctors! But not now.


    At the same time, on the official road from Luoyang to Chang''an City, Hua Lao took a fast carriage and hurried anxiously: "hurry! We must reach Chang''an City as soon as possible."


    "Yes!"


    The driving Mohist children should say that it is not difficult to mobilize a fast carriage based on the position of Hua Lao in the doctor. This time, Hua Lao is very anxious to hear the storm of the doctor. He wants to rush to Chang''an city immediately to preside over the overall situation of the doctor.


    Immediately, doctors became the focus of the world. Everyone focused on doctors and complained about their grievances. You know, what doctors do today affects not one or two people, but everyone in the world.


    More people began to explore the attitude of Mohism. After all, Mohism is a staunch ally of doctors. At this time, it depends on whether Mohism can support doctors.


    "Ink magazine has been published! Mohists complain about grievances for doctors." on the same day, the first ray of sunshine in the air sprinkled on Chang''an city. The new issue of Ink magazine shocked Chang''an City, and people bought it one after another and watched it.


    "Medical trouble is the biggest obstacle to the progress of doctors!"


    The opening of Ink magazine successfully attracted everyone''s attention. Ink magazine frankly said that the opponent of doctors has never been another hundred or other people, but the contradiction between doctors and patients, and medical trouble is the point of conflict between the two.


    "Medical trouble! It''s also very aptly described."


    Many people nodded slightly. The rough man''s behavior was indeed in line with the medical trouble. He surrounded the Mexican hospital not for justice, but to make the Mexican hospital lose money.


    "Yes, this man is a naughty man. He once made trouble in my medicine shop, but I can only compensate ten Liang silver." the miracle Doctor Liu Mingcheng confirmed.


    Although he did not deal with Mo hospital, for the sake of doctors, he resolutely stood up and accused rough Han of medical trouble.


    "It''s a pity that doctor Mo Wu was so strong that he cut off his future because of a naughty." Liu Licheng regretted that he had a public confrontation with Mo Wu, and he couldn''t help feeling sorry.


    "While asking for help, he is still slandering his life-saving benefactor. Medical trouble has ruined the reputation of many famous doctors, discouraged many famous doctors, and failed to lift their spine." a sentence in Ink magazine immediately aroused a lot of resonance. In this era, doctors believe that they hope that people in the world will be free from disease. Why do they cherish the dust of Medicine on the shelf? The conscience of doctors can stand the test, Not to mention that the system of MOH hospital is very standardized. Standardizing medication and rejecting red envelopes have solved the disadvantages of doctors to a great extent.


    "Hua Tuo''s skill in scraping bones and treating poison is unparalleled in the world. Cao Cao heard of it and asked the doctor for a headache. Hua Tuo said: the prime minister''s disease needs craniotomy for treatment......"


    Ink magazine lists countless cases of medical trouble among the people, of which the most famous is Cao Cao''s killing Hua Tuo. In Ink magazine, using the current medical theory, it carefully analyzes Hua Tuo, who has Ma boiling powder and has the experience of successfully scraping bone and treating poison. Craniotomy treatment has great success, of course, there will be risks. Cao Cao can choose not to treat, but he directly killed Hua Tuo.


    "People''s medical trouble will ruin the reputation of doctors; dignitaries'' medical trouble will lead to the disaster of doctors'' imprisonment; emperors'' medical trouble will lead to the destruction of the family. Doctors will cure all the people in the world, and all the people in the world will bear the responsibility of doctors."


    At the end of the ink journal, the doctors made a final decision and complained about grievances.

 Chapter 1323

    "Emperor medical trouble, copy the family and destroy the family!"


    "Everyone in the world is a doctor!"


    When the people of Chang''an saw the end of the ink magazine, they couldn''t help blushing. This sentence was so cruel that almost everyone scolded it.


    "The Mohist school is too arrogant. Cao Cao is just the prime minister. He even accuses mulberry and locust trees and insults the emperor. I will take part in his great disrespect." an old imperial historian filled with righteous indignation.


    Yan shigu shook his head and said, "although Cao Cao was not called emperor, he was posthumously proclaimed emperor Wu of Wei. Cao Cao killed Hua Tuo and was called emperor medical trouble."


    "Even if the Mohist family accuses mulberry and locust trees, there is no blame. Are there still few imperial doctors killed by emperors of all dynasties? The Mohist family says that all people in the world bear the responsibility of doctors, once it is not too much." Leng hum, a young historian.


    They could not help being silent for a while. They were proficient in history books and naturally knew how risky the position of imperial doctor was. It is no exaggeration to say that on average, if one Royal died, at least one imperial doctor would be buried with him, and the rest were imprisoned and denounced.


    Even so, the famous folk doctors are precarious. The most famous one is the famous doctor in the story of tiying saving his father.


    It is said that Chun Yuyi, tiying''s father, was a famous doctor. However, he was jailed for offending dignitaries and sentenced to corporal punishment. Chun yutiying came to Chang''an city to appeal to Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and expressed his willingness to enter the palace as an official slave to take the place of his father. According to Confucian records, the protagonist of this event was Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty listened to Chunyu tiying''s suggestions, understood the hardships of the people''s livelihood, showed the emperor''s mind, and opened the rule of Wen Jingzhi. From the secular point of view, Chunyu tiying''s female surrogate father punishment is simply an example of filial piety, but no one cares about Chunyu''s tragedy.


    Ink magazine analyzes the tragedy of doctors from Chunyu Yi''s identity as a doctor. The reason why Chunyu Yi didn''t treat the powerful is that he was afraid that he would be blamed by the powerful if he couldn''t cure it, but he didn''t expect that he would end up like this if he didn''t treat the disease. Even so, the situation of other doctors can be imagined. A famous doctor will end up the same whether he is cured or not.


    The Mohist School cited this as an example of the trouble caused by powerful doctors and the disaster of doctors'' imprisonment.


    "Hua Tuo, he is pure in meaning, Mo Wu. Originally, only emperors and dignitaries could persecute doctors. Now even naughty can force famous doctors to resign automatically, and doctors are kneeling to save people!" in Mo magazine, articles in support of doctors were widely spread in Chang''an city. Everyone heard of them was moved, and public opinion completely turned to doctors.


    "The doctor is kneeling to save people!"


    In Chang''an City, doctors can''t help crying when they look at the ink magazine in their hands. Among the hundreds, only Mohists know doctors best. Doctors don''t care about Ti Ying''s filial piety to save their father. What they care about is that the tragedy of chunyuyi will fall on them.


    At this moment, the doctors really felt the sincerity of Mohist School and the Confucian attitude of falling into a well. Mohist school provided charcoal in the snow and spoke out in a righteous manner, which completely convinced the doctors.


    In the Confucius Mansion, Kong Yingda looked at the ink magazine in his hand and couldn''t help showing a trace of bitterness. He originally wanted to provoke internal contradictions among doctors to break the alliance between ink doctors, but he was self defeating and pushed doctors into the Mohist camp.


    Outside Chang''an City, old Hua arrived in Chang''an city. When he heard that Mo Wu voluntarily resigned in Chang''an City and that he Mo hospital was about to abolish the hospitalization system, he couldn''t help but feel a pain in his heart.


    Mo Wu is his most proud disciple and the most proud successor of Hua Tuo''s pulse. It can be said that Mo Wu''s surgical skills have surpassed him, but Hua Tuo''s hope has abandoned his martial arts.


    As for the abolition of the hospitalization system in Mohist hospital, he was even more angry. If there was no hospitalization system, the cure rate of doctors would be greatly reduced. How to base on the dispute among hundreds of doctors, compared with the future of doctors, doctors should bear the risk of hospitalizing patients even if they bite their teeth.


    Then a copy of Ink magazine was sent to him, which made old Hua very relieved. With the help of Ink magazine, the doctor has stabilized his position, and now there is still a chance to remedy it.


    "Go to Mohist mansion!" old Hua waved his hand. Mohist school is the most firm and reliable ally of doctors when they are in greatest danger.


    "Yes!"


    The Mohist children in charge of driving the car took the order and drove the carriage towards the Mohist house.


    "Thank the Mohist School for speaking out. The doctors are very grateful!"


    In the Mo mansion, old Hua solemnly saluted Merton.


    "Hua Lao is polite, not to mention the friendship between Mohists and doctors. Even if Mo Wu is humiliated, Mohists will not sit idly by." Merton hurried forward to help Hua Lao up.


    Old Hua got up, looked around and frowned, "where''s Mo Wu?"


    What he is most worried about now is that Mo Wu will fall down and waste his medical skills in vain.


    "Mo Wu is in Mo hospital. There is another patient who has finished the operation not long ago. Anyway, he has to stand at the last shift, and the calculation time is coming back." Merton said.


    Old Hua looked ashamed and said, "it was the doctor who failed Mo Wu. At the beginning, Mo Hou handed Mo Wu to me, but I didn''t protect Mo Wu."


    If Mo Wu stayed in Mohism, he would have a bright future. However, Mo Wu followed him into a doctor, but he fell into disrepute.


    Merton shook his head and said, "this is mo Wu''s choice. I can''t blame others. Mo Jia village has built a new Mo hospital long ago. I''m waiting for Mo Wu to go back to benefit Mo Jia village?"


    Old Hua smiled bitterly and said, "Mo Wu has a way out, but doctors have no way out. Today''s doctors have reached a dilemma. Please point out the maze."


    Today''s hospitalization system is a double-edged sword, which can not only improve the cure rate of doctors, but also add countless risks to doctors. We can''t lose a doctor every time there is medical trouble. Over time, I''m afraid all doctors will be cold hearted. However, without the hospitalization system, doctors will return to the era of silence, especially for Hua Tuo''s surgery, It is a fatal blow, which Huayuan is unwilling to accept anyway.


    Merton pondered for a moment and said, "no hundred schools can rise with the help of external forces. Doctors must rely on themselves if they want to rise. Medical trouble is certainly a stubborn disease, but it can also be seen that the world does not trust doctors. The key to solve this storm is to see how doctors do."


    "Please give me some advice!" old Hua said solemnly.


    Merton thought for a moment and said, "the most regrettable thing about the death of doctors is Hua Tuo, the great doctor of Chinese ancestors. However, for thousands of years, some people still scoff at the craniotomy. If Hua can reproduce the craniotomy and prove the innocence of Hua Tuo, I believe it can turn the situation of doctors in one fell swoop."


    "Craniotomy!" Hua Yuan was shocked and his hands trembled uncontrollably. Hua Tuo advised Cao Cao to open his head and was finally killed by Cao Cao. Up to now, there are still voices of doubt that Hua Tuo''s craniotomy is nonsense. As a descendant of Hua Tuo, he had to live in seclusion in Mojia village.


    If he can reproduce the craniotomy, he can not only rehabilitate his ancestors, but also turn the tide and save the whole doctor.

 Chapter 1324

    After pondering for a long time, old Hua smiled bitterly and said, "just like Cao Cao, who dares to take the risk of craniotomy? Even if there is, Hua is old, I''m afraid he doesn''t have the ability and courage to carry out craniotomy."


    "Disciples can help Shifu!" suddenly, Mo Wu''s voice came from behind. It turned out that Mo Wu had returned from Mo hospital.


    "Mo Wu!" the Chinese old man was not moved. Mo has been strong for five years and has rich experience in surgery. It is indeed the only choice to reproduce craniotomy.


    Hua laodun gritted his teeth and said, "OK, then you, my teachers and disciples will work together. Even if I give up my life, I will correct our name."


    Hua Lao looked determined. For the sake of the reputation of his ancestors and the progress of doctors, he decided to sacrifice himself and have a craniotomy on his head.


    Mo Wu quickly shook his head and said, "master, how can doctors take people for craniotomy experiments? Disciple means that doctors only need to find a few monkeys for craniotomy. As long as these monkeys can recover after the operation, it can naturally prove the feasibility of craniotomy."


    "Do experiments with monkeys? Is this feasible?" old Hua was stunned.


    "This method is absolutely feasible! I once dissected monkeys and found that there is almost no difference in the structure between monkeys and people except the tail. Besides, what we do is surgery, which can be used in theory." Mo Wu said directly.


    "I didn''t think of such a simple method. If my ancestors could think of it, they wouldn''t be killed." old Hua couldn''t help crying.


    "The monkey is not suitable! The monkey is too thin and has a tail. Even if it succeeds, there will be a lot of doubts, and what doctors need is a final decision."


    While the master and apprentice were excited, Merton poured a basin of cold water on them.


    "What about that?" Walton was silly. Naturally, he knew what Merton said was true. I''m afraid it would be difficult to convince the public to experiment with monkeys.


    "It''s not impossible to solve these two problems. Not long ago, the ambassadors of all nations dedicated to his majesty a pair of orangutans, which are humanoid, stand up six feet tall and have no tail." Merton smiled mysteriously.


    "There are such people''s things." old Hua was delighted. If he used orangutans to do the experiment of craniotomy, it would certainly convince the world.


    However, his eyes darkened immediately. It was a rare and exotic beast paid tribute by envoys of all countries. Would your majesty like to? It would be too late to spend a lot of money to buy like Mohism. After all, the situation of doctors is urgent.


    "If you can, try it and you''ll know. The big deal is to experiment with monkeys first. In the future, Hu Shang will naturally send real orangutans." Merton got up and said.


    In the legislative palace.


    The imperial doctor''s order respectfully said, "tell the empress that doctor Mo Wu is inconvenient now, so let Weichen check the empress''s condition."


    "Doctor Mo Wu was wronged."


    The doctor''s storm is so noisy that even the queen who has been lying in the hospital bed for a long time has heard of it.


    "The emperor''s medical trouble, copying the family and destroying the family! The Mohists are so brave that they even talk about the emperor." Li Shimin snorted coldly. Although he sympathized with the experience of the doctors, he was dissatisfied with the ink magazine''s insinuation of the emperor''s killing of the imperial doctor by borrowing Cao Cao''s killing of Hua Tuo.


    The eldest grandson empress gently advised: "naturally, there is no such thing in my dynasty, but many imperial princes in the previous dynasty died because of the royal family. As for oral threats to bury them if they can''t be cured, ink magazine said that it''s right that doctors are kneeling to save people. I know my concubine''s condition, but I don''t hope your majesty will anger a group of imperial doctors because of her condition in the future."


    The imperial doctor''s order on one side quickly thanked him and said, "thank you for the kindness and righteousness of the empress. I''m very grateful."


    "Get up, as long as you are loyal to your duties, no one will blame you." empress Chang Sun said softly.


    The imperial doctor ordered to get up and looked a little more relaxed. As ink magazine said, the position of imperial doctor is not an easy position, but a high-risk career. If you are not careful, you will offend the dignitaries and emperors. Everyone is looking forward to Hua Tuo, but no one wants to be Hua Tuo second.


    "Tell your majesty, marquis Mo brought Dr. Mo Wu and Dr. Hua to report something." pound hurried to report.


    "Let them in!" Li Shimin snorted coldly. Although he was dissatisfied with Merton, Mo Wu and old Hua were contemporary doctors, and the condition of empress Chang sun was inseparable from them.


    "See your majesty and queen!"


    Soon, Merton led Mo Wu and Hua Lao to the Tai Chi hall.


    "Doctor Hua is back. I heard that doctor Hua has something important to do with the array. I don''t know what to say." Li Shimin asked.


    Old Hua said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty is laughing at the doctor''s dispute. I came back to Chang''an city to solve this matter. Please help the doctor."


    Li Shimin looked surprised and asked, "I don''t know what doctor Hua said?"


    Merton came forward and said, "Chinese doctor and Mo Wu decided to reproduce the craniotomy of Chinese doctor Hua Tuo. They came to ask your majesty for something?"


    "Craniotomy!"


    Suddenly, the whole legislative Hall fell into a dead silence, and everyone stared at Hua Yuan and Mo Wu.


    "You don''t think I have a headache like Cao Cao. You want to use my head!" Li Shimin looked at Sanren unkindly.


    It turned out that like Cao Cao, the Li family had a headache, especially when Li Shimin worked hard in government affairs for a long time.


    Hua Yuan said with a bitter smile, "Your Majesty is worried. Although I admit that I have studied medicine for many years, I am still far from the medicine of my ancestor Hua Tuo. Naturally, I dare not take your Majesty''s head for craniotomy."


    Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. He didn''t know whether it was regret or disappointment. If Hua Yuanzhen said he was sure to have craniotomy, he didn''t know whether he would become Cao Cao''s second.


    "What do you want?" Li Shimin asked.


    "Doctors want ambassadors from all over the world to enter the strange beast, orangutan, presented to his majesty." Merton directly explained the purpose of his trip.


    "Red haired savage!" Li Shimin suddenly realized, "you want to use red haired savage for craniotomy."


    Orangutans are like humans. They are called red haired savages by envoys of all countries. They are presented to Li Shimin. Li Shimin is very curious and keeps them in the Royal animal park.


    Merton explained: "this red haired savage is not a man, but a creature between man and ape. It is called orangutan, which is most similar to human beings. It is the best choice for craniotomy."


    Hua Yuan then said, "moreover, doctors do not want to kill orangutans, but will cure them after craniotomy. Once successful, it means that craniotomy is a feasible medical technique, which will be of great significance to doctors."


    Li Shimin hesitated. Once the craniotomy was successful, it confirmed that Cao Cao''s behavior was medical trouble. As an emperor, he should have stood on Cao Cao''s side, and the world public opinion will certainly turn to doctors.


    However, he not only suffers from headache, but the whole Li family has this genetic disease. The craniotomy can really be successful. Doesn''t that mean that the Li family has a hope of curing the headache.


    "I can give the orangutan to the doctor. If the craniotomy is true, I will personally correct the doctor''s name. If the craniotomy fails, don''t blame me for watching the doctor." Li Shimin said seriously.


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    Hua Yuan and Mo Wu solemnly saluted Li Shimin.

 Chapter 1325

    Soon after, Hua Tuo decided to repeat the craniotomy and correct the name of his ancestor Hua Tuo. The news spread all over Chang''an like a whirlwind.


    "Craniotomy!"


    All the people who heard the news were in an uproar, although they all knew that Hua Tuo''s medical skills were superb and did not think that craniotomy could succeed.


    If anyone said he would open his head, they would also be deeply suspicious, not to mention the hero Cao Cao. Generally speaking, people think that Hua Tuo''s death is not unjust.


    However, after hundreds of years, the craniotomy was once again mentioned by Hua Tuo''s descendants. Once it was successful, it proved that Hua Tuo was right. Cao Cao was a doctor and killed Hua Tuo. This would not only have an impact on the history circle, but also a rare opportunity for doctors. It would just take the opportunity to solve the dilemma of today''s doctors.


    "Craniotomy was regarded as the highest medical skill of doctors, so that no one believed that craniotomy could be realized, which led to the tragedy of the miracle doctor Hua Tuo." a scholar familiar with history sighed.


    "Hua Tuo has been dead for hundreds of years, and Ma boiling powder has been lost for thousands of years. Can today''s craniotomy be successful?" some hostages questioned.


    "It''s possible! Doctor Mo Wu once opened the belly of the Tubo emissary and then cured him. From this, it seems that craniotomy can also work."


    "How can we compare, one is the stomach and the other is the head?"


    "Is there a difference?"


    "Er!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The news of craniotomy is spreading among the people, and it is a big earthquake in the medical field.


    "Hua Yuan is too radical. In order to solve the medical trouble, he should take such a risk. If the craniotomy fails, it will sink my doctor again and destroy the prosperity of the doctor." the miracle Doctor Liu Mingcheng frowned.


    "It is said that today''s saints also have headaches!" his son Liu Licheng whispered.


    "No!" Liu Ming looked flustered and shouted, "Hua Yuan is going to lead my doctor to a dead end!"


    If Hua Yuan, in order to prove the craniotomy of the Hua family, directly performed the craniotomy for Li Shimin, everyone would be happy if he succeeded. If he failed, the doctor would be doomed.


    "Go, stop Hua Yuan immediately. Even if you open my head, you can''t open your Majesty''s head." Liu Mingcheng couldn''t sit still anymore and immediately went to Mo hospital.


    Like Liu Mingcheng, almost all the doctors in Chang''an City couldn''t sit still. Whether it was craniotomy or Li Shimin''s headache, they were restless and went to Zhimo hospital one after another.


    When they arrived at Mo hospital, they saw Hua Yuan and Mo Wu leading a group of doctors around a pair of orangutans.


    "Is this?" Liu Mingcheng squeezed in a fog.


    "Brother Liu, this is the experimental object of craniotomy. Red haired savages, not orangutans." old Hua said proudly.


    "Orangutan?" Liu Mingcheng was stunned.


    "That''s natural. Do you think Hua will really joke about the future of doctors because of his own selfish interests, so Hua decided to test orangutans first!" Hua Yuan said.


    "But can it be the same?" Liu Mingcheng frowned at the subdued orangutan.


    Hua Yuan turned aside and asked Liu Mingcheng to come forward and said, "brother Liu can have a look at the difference between this orangutan and people."


    Liu Mingcheng came forward and saw Mo Wu constantly measuring two orangutans.


    "Male, weighing 120 kg, seven feet long, female......" Mo Wu kept counting. Liu Mingcheng was surprised to find that the orangutan was almost no different from people in weight and height, even without a tail, except that it had hair all over.


    "It still has pulse appearance!" Liu Mingcheng didn''t give up. He personally came forward to explore. He was shocked. He was proficient in hanging silk to diagnose pulse. He was a master of pulse appearance. He could hardly believe it when he saw this situation.


    "That''s why it was sent to Chang''an City as a red haired savage. Do you think it''s feasible to use it for craniotomy?" old Hua asked solemnly.


    "I''m afraid this is the most perfect choice!" the people nodded deeply. The craniotomy has never been realized. Naturally, they dare not take people to do experiments. It''s most appropriate to have orangutans.


    "I don''t know when brother Hua''s craniotomy will reappear. Liu can''t wait to witness this medical miracle." Liu Mingcheng asked excitedly. Which doctor in the world doesn''t want to see the highest skills of doctors in the world.


    "Not Hua Mou, but Mo Wu''s main knife." Hua Yuan said softly.


    "Mo Wu!" all the doctors were surprised and looked at the young Mo Wu in disbelief.


    No one expected that Mo Wu, the immortal doctor''s storm, would become the protagonist again, but it was both unexpected and reasonable. Mo Wu had the glorious experience of opening his belly and curing Tubo envoys. Hua Yuan made his main knife craniotomy increase the success rate by 30% out of thin air.


    "Three days later, the craniotomy tool entrusted by Mo Wu to the Mohists will be completed. At that time, Mo Wu invites you to witness the craniotomy in person." Mo Wu''s face is shy, but his tone is confident.


    "How dare you open your craniotomy?" Liu Mingcheng said inconceivably.


    You should know that craniotomy is the highest medical skill of doctors. Mo Wu is prepared to give it without reservation, which surprised many doctors.


    "It''s natural. No matter how high the medical skill is, it''s also for curing diseases and saving people. If only ink 51 people can heal the people all over the world," ink 5 solemnly said.


    "Doctor Mo is righteous." a group of doctors were convinced.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Three days later, the Mexican hospital attracted attention and once again became the focus of Chang''an city.


    In Mo hospital, almost all famous doctors in Chang''an City have arrived, and even many doctors from other places have come. Everyone is looking forward to this craniotomy that determines the future fate of doctors.


    In the special operating room, Mo Wu held a scalpel. Behind him, many doctors followed.


    "Fill hemp medicinal liquor!" Mo Wu said calmly. In the era when hemp boiling powder was lost, alcohol was a good anesthetic, but it was not stable. Therefore, Mo Wu made wine with hemp on the basis of alcohol. Although it was not as good as hemp boiling powder, it was also much better than simple drunkenness.


    Soon after, the anesthetic wine began to work. The orangutan''s resistance soon became weaker and weaker, and the craniotomy officially began.


    "Shave!"


    "Cut the scalp!"


    "Drilling, sawing!"


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    The famous doctors outside the window can''t bear to look straight at it. If they don''t know that this is the most advanced operating room, they think they have entered the Mohist workshop? Even knives, drills, saws and hammers are used


    At the same time, many doctors began to face up to the relationship between doctors and Mohism. They had to admit that the so-called craniotomy could not be so smooth without these medical tools carefully built by Mohism.


    A quarter of an hour later, all the doctors were crazy about the orangutan brain flowers in the operating room through the glass eyes. Although it was very short, Mo Wu soon closed the orangutan''s skull.


    But this is enough to prove that craniotomy is feasible. An hour later, Mo Wu slowly walked out of the operating room, looked at the door and stared at him nervously. He couldn''t help smiling shyly: "Mo Wu is lucky not to disgrace his life!"


    Suddenly, a burst of cheers broke out in the Mo hospital. Hua Yuan burst into tears. For thousands of years, the ancestor Hua Tuo did not know how much criticism he had suffered. This time, he finally got vindicated.

 Chapter 1326

    "The craniotomy was successful!"


    When the news spread all over Chang''an City, the whole Chang''an city was strange, because once the craniotomy was successful, it meant that the whole world was responsible for doctors, but doctors endured humiliation and knelt to save people.


    Now the craniotomy is right in front of them. Cao Cao''s killing of Hua Tuo has been proved wrong. Of course, Cao Cao has also paid the price of his life. Although Cao Cao has passed away, the "Cao Cao''s" are still popular in the world. Almost everyone once doubted the doctors and thought that the doctors had a serious cure for minor diseases, but some people avoided the doctors. Finally, when it was too late to regret, they blamed the doctors.


    "It''s just to open the head. It''s still unknown whether the red haired savage can survive. Who can guarantee that the craniotomy has been successful." someone said sour.


    "The skull is also a bone. It''s not difficult for a broken bone to grow well, and the scalp is just a method of suture. Doctor Mo Wu is a miracle doctor who once opened his belly to save people. Since he said that the operation was successful, it''s eight or nine times." some people of insight analyzed it.


    "Yes, even if it doesn''t succeed this time, as long as orangutans are continuously transported from Nanyang countries, the success of craniotomy will come sooner or later," someone agreed.


    Not only ordinary people, but also hundreds of doctors have confirmed that this time, doctors will certainly rise to a new height. Moreover, since the reappearance of Hua Tuo''s craniotomy, the essence, Qi and spirit of the whole doctor are different.


    Sure enough, with the passage of time, the two orangutans who had undergone craniotomy slowly recovered. After a series of examinations by doctors, it was finally determined that the two orangutans had recovered. Their behavior was no different from that before the operation, but a circle of ferocious scars on their heads.


    So far, the craniotomy was officially completed.


    "This is craniotomy!"


    In the Royal Animal Park, Li Shimin looked at the scars on the heads of two ignorant orangutans in the park and asked curiously.


    After the two orangutans recovered, the doctors returned them to the Royal Animal Park, which immediately aroused Li Shimin''s interest and came to see them in person.


    "Yes, all the doctors in Chang''an city saw it with their own eyes. Doctor Mo Wu opened the heads of the two orangutans, exposed their brains, and then sewed them up." behind him, the imperial doctor ordered respectfully.


    "The skill of doctors is so exquisite that they can open the skull without death!" Li Shimin exclaimed.


    The imperial doctor''s order was shameless. If Li Shimin saw Mo Wu sawing and drilling like a craftsman with his own eyes, I''m afraid he would take back this sentence. However, he is also a doctor. Naturally, he will maintain the mystery of the doctor. Just let the doctors know this.


    "If......" Li Shimin couldn''t help being moved. The Li family also had a genetic disease of headache. The success of craniotomy made him palpitate.


    The imperial doctor''s face changed and said, "Your Majesty can''t. although doctor Mo Wu successfully completed the craniotomy, he didn''t use anything in his head. This operation is not perfect, and there are still great risks. Your majesty can''t take risks."


    Li Shimin also figured out the problem and nodded regretfully. He was afraid that he would not try easily after a thousand years, let alone Cao Cao.


    "What do you think of Cao Cao''s killing Hua Tuo?" Li Shimin suddenly asked.


    The imperial doctor tightened his heart and said, "Hua Tuo''s craniotomy is true. Cao Cao can''t worry too much. The mistake is wrong. Cao Cao shouldn''t kill Hua Tuo, otherwise the craniotomy will be handed down for hundreds of years, otherwise his Majesty''s headache has been cured."


    Li Shimin nodded slowly. The imperial doctor''s order was right. Cao Cao can''t believe it, but you can''t kill Hua Tuo. Maybe Hua Tuo''s craniotomy is risky. If it is passed down from generation to generation, one day it will be improved and Chinese medicine will go to a new level.


    "It''s not too late. Now there is craniotomy. I believe that in a short time, craniotomy can benefit countless people in the Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said.


    "Your Majesty is wise!" the imperial doctor couldn''t help but rejoice and understand that Li Shimin was ready to help the doctor.


    "If the order goes down, the Tang Dynasty forbids medical trouble. Those who abuse doctors, disturb doctors, and block Mo hospitals are dealt with severely according to the law. If there is a medical dispute, the county governments at all levels are allowed to deal with it according to law and do not condone medical trouble." Li Shimin ordered.


    "Thank you, your majesty!" the imperial doctor''s order shed tears of gratitude. Li Shimin''s edict is not only good for doctors all over the world, but also provides a layer of protection for imperial doctors. From then on, the emperor can no longer kill imperial doctors on the grounds of poor treatment.


    When the news came back to the Mexican hospital, all the doctors in the Mexican hospital couldn''t help crying with joy. With the will of Li Shimin, it means that the doctors have stood up and lived in the world with dignity.


    Mr. Hua got up slowly, looked around at a group of happy and crying doctors, and said, "your grace, doctors can''t live up to it. From then on, doctors should strengthen medical ethics training and standardize medical procedures. There should be no negligence, otherwise you will be the sinner of doctors."


    "Yes, I''ll do it!" the doctors were convinced.


    "Grab it!"


    In Chang''an City, Constable Cao Li personally led the team, rushed to the rough Han''s home and escorted the rough han to the Chang''an County Government.


    "You and other troublemakers don''t think about the doctor''s help. Instead, they framed doctor Mo five and surrounded Mo hospital, which had a bad impact. According to the holy will, I will deal with those who make trouble with doctors severely and give a special sentence of 30 sticks." Chang''an ordered Su Luosheng to drink coldly.


    The rough Han was not allowed to resist. The Yamen of Chang''an County immediately took it off and hit 30 big boards again.


    As the rough man screamed, the thirty big boards were beaten heavily, and the rough man was dying.


    Constable Cao Li smiled and said, "hurry to see a doctor! I''m afraid it''s too late."


    The family members of the rough man could not help but look stiff. They had just made a medical trouble and their reputation had long been smelly. Now they asked them to ask for a doctor. However, looking at the dying rough man, they could only be horizontal and brazen and go towards a medicine shop.


    "Sorry, benlang''s traditional Chinese medicine is shallow and can''t cure your injury well. Please ask for another expert." a doctor looked at the dying rough man and avoided him like a snake and scorpion.


    The family had no choice but to use the carriage to pull the rough man to continue looking for the next doctor.


    "I''m sorry, my doctor has no family and can''t stand your medical trouble." the next doctor said sarcastically.


    The family''s face was blue and red, and they begged: "this time we will not make medical trouble, but also ask the doctor for treatment. Can''t we pay the diagnosis money in advance?"


    Without hesitation, the family took out several silver tickets and stuffed them into the hands of the doctor.


    The doctor sighed and said softly, "it''s not that I don''t want to treat you, but that your injury is very serious. Only Qinglong real medicine can cure it. Now there is only one place to save him... Mo hospital."


    "Mo hospital!" the family members of the rough man trembled. They didn''t know that Mo hospital has the highest medical skills and is best at trauma. However, with the previous gratitude and resentment, they can''t open their face. Now they can only pull down their face to ask Mo hospital.


    "How dare you come!" outside the MOH hospital, a doctor saw the rough Han''s family coming, and couldn''t help shouting.


    A few days ago, the family members of the rough Han made a lot of noise at the gate of the Mexican hospital. The whole Mexican hospital had a headache. It was not long before they came again.


    Rough Han''s family fell on their knees and said, "please be kind to Mo hospital and save my husband''s life. This time, whether dead or alive, we promise not to make trouble."


    At the sight of the bloody rough man, the famous doctor immediately understood what was going on. At that moment, he sneered: "the ink hospital is miserable by you. Who dares to treat you."


    Even a famous doctor like Mo Wu has been planted. Who dares to bet on his doctor''s future.


    Rough Han''s family immediately stayed there and was at a loss.


    "Have you forgotten the doctor''s medical training? No matter who comes to Mo hospital, there is only one identity, that is, the patient. Bring him in! Hua will treat him himself." Hua Yuan appeared at the door of Mo hospital and scolded the famous doctor.


    "Yes!" the doctor replied quickly.


    "Thank you, doctor Hua!" the rough Han family quickly knelt down and thanked.


    Then the rough man was carried in by a group of doctors. After intense treatment, he was finally out of danger.


    After the news spread, all the people in Chang''an City praised the noble medical ethics of Mo hospital.


    So far, the doctor''s storm officially ended, but everyone didn''t pay attention. Mo Wu, the protagonist of the storm, hadn''t appeared in Mo hospital for a long time. Many people came to look for Mo Wu to see a doctor, but they never saw doctor Mo Wu.


    "Excuse me, where is Mr. Mo Wu? If the sinner wants him to make amends in person." the rough man was barely able to get out of bed and walk, so he dragged himself and prepared to find Mo Wu to make amends.


    "Doctor Mo Wu is not in the hospital!" a doctor replied.


    "No!" the rough man was at a loss. Now he has been punished and apologized. How could Mo Wu not come?


    Not only the rough man doubts, but all those who pay attention to the doctor''s storm are very confused. It is reasonable that today''s Mo Wu has a stable position and a higher reputation. How can he not go back to Mo hospital.


    Just when everyone was in doubt, a news came, which made the whole Chang''an City in an uproar.


    Mo Wu had an epiphany during the craniotomy and decided to leave the doctor and create a hundred schools of thought.

 Chapter 1327

    "The new hundred?"


    As soon as the news came out, the whole Chang''an city was in an uproar. No one expected that the final outcome would be so surprising.


    Mo Wu, who completed the craniotomy, not only got away from the medical vortex perfectly, but also had a well-known position in the medical community. However, no one thought that he abandoned his highest honor and position in the doctor and chose to leave the doctor.


    "Hundreds of families are no longer valuable, but new ones have emerged one after another." a Chang''an people sighed. His Highness the king of Wei founded a geographical chain before, and Mo Wu founded a new one. Is it true that now hundreds of families are Chinese cabbage, and everyone can create hundreds of families.


    In Chang''an City, a hundred families frowned. Li Tai had created a geographical vein before, but he concentrated countless Royal resources, wanted people, money and money, and in the right direction, which created a geographical vein. However, how dare Mo Wu claim to create a new hundred families.


    "It''s possible." some people are skeptical. Today''s Mo Wu has completed the craniotomy of the highest medical skill of the doctor. He is already the highest medical skill of the doctor in name or in fact. While Mo Wu stands at the peak of the doctor, maybe he can really find another way to achieve his words.


    "You should know that Mo Wu is also a doctor, but there is another Mo family behind him." someone frowned. If an ordinary person announced to create a hundred new families, people might scoff. Mo Wu with excellent medical skills and Mo family have to be cautious.


    Among them, the most embarrassing is the doctor. There are differences within the doctor. He doesn''t want Mo Wu, who was born in the Mohist school, to lead the doctor, which makes the doctor feel like an appendage of the Mohist school. That''s why he wants to use the medical trouble to drive Mo Wu away. Now Mo Wu reappears the craniotomy technique and tries to turn the tide and save the doctor. His position in the doctor is as high as the sun. It can even be said that the doctor can''t live without Mo Wu, But I didn''t expect Mo Wu to take the initiative to leave the doctor.


    "Hua Lao, please advise Mo Wu, but you can''t be so impulsive." in Mo hospital, a group of old Chinese doctors advised Hua Lao. In their opinion, Mo Wu must have been wronged before. In a rage, he decided to leave the doctor and set up a new door.


    "This child! How can he be so mischievous!" Hua laodun sighed. Now Mo Wu is the pride of doctors. It''s too wasteful to give up his great future in doctors just because of a little grievance.


    At present, after the operation, Hua Lao dragged his tired body to Mo Fu. Today he must persuade Mo Wu back, otherwise it will be the biggest loss for the doctor.


    "Mo Wu should not be fooling around! Now that you have cleared away your grievances and restored your reputation, how can you give up medicine with a word of disagreement? Is it against the doctor''s heart to help the world." when he came to Mo Fu, old Hua finally saw Mo Wu who had disappeared for many days and advised him painstakingly.


    Mo Wu shook his head and said, "please forgive me, master. I didn''t fool around, but my mind has been determined."


    "Mo Hou, I beg you to persuade Mo Wu. Mo Wu is not only related to the future of doctors, but also the link of cooperation between Mohists and doctors. Once Mo Wu leaves the doctors, the cooperation between the two will increase." seeing that Mo Wu can''t be persuaded, old Hua quickly asked for help from Merton


    But Merton said, "the identity of Mo Wu is indeed a little sensitive, and it is easy to be used by Confucianism. Mo believes that Mo Wu''s withdrawal from doctors is the best choice! Only in this way can the Mohists and doctors cooperate equally for a long time.


    Merton knows that he has a family view in any hundred schools. Mo Wu is young and comes from Mohism. Even if he wants to lead doctors with excellent medical skills, he will have doubts. For a long time, he will have trouble. He might as well take this opportunity to quit doctors. Although there will be some differences between Mohists and doctors in a short time, in the long run, the equal cooperation between doctors and Mohists is long The long way.


    "But it''s a pity that Mo Wu''s medical skills?" Hua Yuan also wanted to persuade again. Mo Wu''s medical skills actually inherited his mantle. In addition, after reproducing the craniotomy, Mo Wu''s medical skills surprised everyone.


    Merton said with a smile, "it''s a pity that you have a lot of medical skills. It''s too early for Hua Lao to say this. It''s not too late to draw a conclusion after listening to Mo Wu''s new theory."


    "Xinbaijia theory, I heard that Mo Wu''s theory was the inspiration obtained during the craniotomy." Hua Yuan suddenly moved and turned his head to Mo Wu


    Mo Wu took a deep breath and said: "Yes, in the process of practicing medicine, Xiao Wu found that many disease doctors were helpless, especially Hua Tuo. Craniotomy is regarded as heresy, and no one dares to try. If he wants to find a cure, he can''t start. If he takes people for drug experiments, he violates medical ethics and Mohist ideas. Mo Wu once saw the young master test the method of suturing with a wounded horse , and personally experienced the method of reproducing craniotomy with orangutans, and an idea has emerged. Maybe doctors can do medical experiments with animals such as monkeys and orangutans. If it doesn''t work once, they should do it many times until they find a cure for the disease. "


    As soon as Hua Yuan heard this, he was immediately excited. "Well, this method is really wonderful. Once this method is used, the medical skills of doctors can be greatly improved."


    The current dilemma of doctors is that they can''t use people to do experiments, otherwise the craniotomy will be lost for nearly a thousand years. If animals can be used to replace humans to do experiments, there will be no psychological and ethical pressure at all. Once this method is popularized, the technical level of doctors will surely be thousands of miles a day, and its value is no less than the contribution of craniotomy to doctors.


    "Then you don''t have to leave the doctor. If you have such a wonderful method, who else will disagree with the doctor." Hua Yuan looks at Mo Wu like a peerless treasure. How can the doctor give up such a peerless talent.


    Merton smiled and said, "old lady Hua is too anxious. Although this method is wonderful, it has not been separated from the scope of doctors. This is just the beginning. Otherwise, how dare Mo Wu claim to create a hundred new schools."


    "This is just the beginning?" Hua Yuan opened his eyes and looked at Mo Wu strangely.


    Mo Wu nodded and said, "in addition to using animals to do experiments for doctors, Mo Wu also decided to study all living things in the world, whether on land, in water, or flying in the sky, whether animals or plants, or even invisible insects. Mo Wu will study this knowledge. Mo Wu calls it biology and studies living things in the world."


    "Biology, doctors study people and treat people, but what''s the use of you studying other creatures?" Hua Yuan said somewhat puzzled.


    Mo Wu solemnly said, "the purpose of studying the creatures in the world is the same as experimenting with medicine with animals. Biology should study the classification of the creatures in the world, survive, multiply, grow old, die, and look for the root cause of the disease and the essence of birth, old age, death, and death."


    Walton took a breath and looked at Mo Wu incredibly. Even he couldn''t help being shocked by Mo Wu''s idea.

 Chapter 1328

    After Hua Yuan left, Mo Wu bowed to Merton and said, "please forgive Mo Wu''s wayward crime. Mo Wu was born in Mohism and should study ink skills. However, Mo Wu is obsessed with medical skills. Now he has separated from doctors and established a hundred other schools. He is really ashamed of the young master."


    Among the hundred schools of thought, Mo Wu first joined the medical school, and then set up another biology school. He really failed to live up to the Mohist school that has been training him.


    Merton didn''t think so. He laughed and said, "it''s the glory of Mohism that we Mohists can establish a hundred other schools. Moreover, the science of biology is also the science of studying all things in the world. It belongs to the same vein of physics as Mohism. It seems that two hundred schools have the same goal by different paths."


    "Thank you, young master." Mo Wu said solemnly. With Merton''s support, his heart was full of confidence.


    Merton''s words turned: "you do have a different way to experiment with medicine and use all things in the world to study the essence of birth, age and death, but it''s not enough to rank among hundreds of schools."


    "Please give me some advice." Mo Wu raised his eyebrows and asked for advice. In his opinion, his idea is enough, at least as good as geography.


    "People! In fact, all schools of thought are created around people. Even geography is not only about natural geography, but also human geography. Your biology is not enough just to test drugs, because doctors can do these jobs," Merton said.


    "Man?" Mo Wu frowned. Man is the research direction of doctors. Should his biology be studied?


    Merton nodded and said, "man is also a kind of creature. Man has flesh and blood, and animals have flesh and blood. Do you think there is any difference between man and the orangutan you have craniotomy?"


    "There''s almost no difference except for long hair and crawling." Mo Wu''s face changed and was content to tell the truth.


    "Since there is no difference, can biology attribute people to the same kind of animals as orangutans and monkeys?" Merton nodded.


    "How can people and livestock mix together." Mo Wu suddenly opened his eyes and said with an incredible expression.


    Merton picked up a history book and put it in front of Mo Wu and said: "You don''t think that human beings are really made of Nuwa''s clay. They are naturally so intelligent! In the pre-Qin period, there was not much knowledge in the world, and hundreds of schools of thought were founded, which led to the situation of today''s hundred schools of thought contending. Similarly, before Cangjie created characters, human beings were illiterate and could only be replaced by murals. In a further era? At that time, human beings were not as ignorant as beasts."


    "The young master means that the more human beings go forward, the more savage they are. Only through continuous learning can they have today''s strength." Mo Wu thought.


    "The Yellow Emperor is only four thousand years old today. What was human like four thousand years ago, and what was human like forty thousand years ago? Four hundred thousand years ago? Before the Suiren family had no fire, human beings did not eat their hair and blood. Before Luozu invented the silkworm, human beings were not wrapped in animal skin. Before the Chaoshi family, human beings did not live in caves like animals Cave. What was the difference between man and beast at that time? "


    Mo Wu was in a cold sweat. He wanted to refute the young master''s words, but his reason told him that it was true.


    Merton then said, "and human speed is not as fast as horses and strength is not as strong as tigers and leopards. If you were, how would you survive in the pre ancient period when there were wild animals everywhere?"


    "Climb the tree!" Mo Wuyi said bitterly. When he said this question, his heart was a little more relaxed. There was a vague answer in his heart, but he was unwilling to admit it.


    "What''s the difference between humans climbing trees, collecting fruit, killing animals smaller than themselves for food and orangutans and monkeys?" Merton asked.


    Mo Wu shook his head helplessly. From the current perspective, there was no difference between humans and orangutans hundreds of thousands of years ago.


    Merton Road: "Let''s push it backwards. A long time ago, a group of apes lived in the forest. Maybe they had to come to the ground to survive because of lack of food or forest fire. In order to survive, they learned to use weapons to defend themselves. In order to survive, they watched thunder chop wood and obtained fire. Later, they learned to drill wood for fire. They learned to build houses to avoid wild animals , learned to drill wood for fire, learned to hunt and plant, and gradually became the overlord of this land, established tribes, established countries, and gave birth to knowledge. "


    "Rather than learning, they have been evolving. Not only humans, but all people are adapting to their environment. This is biological evolution, which you can call evolution," Merton said.


    "Evolution!" Mo Wu''s eyes lit up. As a son of Mohism, he naturally didn''t believe in the so-called legend that Nu Wa made man, and evolution found a possibility for Mo Wu to appear.


    "Why are humans, not orangutans, not monkeys, not other animals!" Mo WuFan asked.


    "Natural selection, survival of the fittest! This is not only the struggle of mankind, but also the choice of God." Merton said seriously.


    "Thank you for your advice!" Mo Wu was excited. He founded biology as a temporary inspiration. However, under the guidance of Merton, his biology was not only based on the theory of evolution, but also based on the concept of natural selection and survival of the fittest. So far, his biology really had a soul.


    "Biology is an extremely profound knowledge, and the energy of a person''s life is basically completed. I suggest you specialize in the study of animals. Mohist university has always been responsible for Mohist experimental fields and is proficient in farming, which can help you study the study of plants." Merton suggested. Merton''s move is not to share the credit of Mo Wu, but to really think of Mo Wu.


    "Thank you, brother." Mo Wu nodded without hesitation. Only with Merton''s guidance, he realized how vast the hundreds of new houses he had inspired for a while, not to mention that one person can''t complete them at all, not to mention that Mo Da is his family and the best choice to study plants. Naturally, he won''t refuse.


    As Hua Yuan left Mo Fu, the news about Mo Wu''s preparation to create biology spread instantly, and all schools of thought were in an uproar.


    "Biology studies all living species in the world."


    All the hundred schools are surprised that there are living things in the world. This is indeed a remote knowledge, but it can also work in theory.


    "Mo Wu really got lucky and thought of this remote knowledge." a scholar said sour. Although biology is very remote, it is different from other hundred schools of learning after all.


    "In my opinion, this is not a new hundred schools at all, but a branch of doctors at most. After all, the purpose of Mo Wu''s research on creatures in the world is to test prescriptions." some people also denied.


    The other hundred schools nodded one after another. They did admit that Mo Wu''s research was unique, but it was far from enough to achieve the achievements of all schools of thought. After all, all schools of thought had their own ideas and theories, rather than just putting forward a research direction.


    "It''s just people who fish for fame. I''ve been waiting for a long time, but now I''m disappointed." there are also Confucian scholars who despise them. As a child of a hundred families, they hold their own noble status. Li Tai, who had originally developed a geographical vein, naturally doesn''t want to develop another biological vein of Mo Wu, let alone look down on Mo Wu from Mohism. Now they have caught the flaw, Naturally, the old don''t mean to belittle Mo Wu.


    However, it was not long before an article on Mo Wu in Mo magazine shocked the whole people.


    The three characters of evolution occupy the front page of the ink journal. The subtitle of the three characters is that the best thing is to survive and let the people who hear it be.


    At the same time, at the bottom of the article, a picture shows the evolution of an ape walking on four limbs into a well-dressed human step by step, which immediately caused a tsunami and huge waves in Chang''an city.
